JoinTheEAF said:Coach Baldwin is obviously a great coach and person and a friend to many of us who post here. Dick Zornes is the greatest coach EWU will ever have, not because of just what he did on the field but what he did off the field. I think Beau would also testify to this if he had time but he's busy winning another national title. The video below is almost twenty minutes but it will demonstrate why I feel the way I do.

Hands-down, bar-none, with 100% certainty, the greatest Eagle to have ever lived.

I am going to state a fact...your wrong....red birds are a very good team. We will be better next year with all our freshman. Maybe a transfer or two.

JoinTheEAF said:Now that this has hit the blog I guess I will respond. Russell Wilson did this when he left NC State for Wisconsin, Byron Wesley just did this to leave USC hoops and transfer to Gonzaga. If an athlete earns their degree and they've redshirted a year they have this option. Of course there is more to it than that but that's the basics. I've been concerned about this for quite some time but I don't think it will.

VA loves it here, that is obvious. But if he were to leave I would wish him well and root for his success. He is just an outstanding young man. He will win the Payton tonight and he deserves it but his leadership is what really impresses me. Watching him with his baby son at the EWU-Zag game last week was special.
Our d-line is so young, we lose our two stud linebackers and replacing Jake Rodgers won't be easy. But we have a couple of great players applying for medical redshirts who could help put us back in the national title game next year. Let's win a fourth Big Sky championship first.

JoinTheEAF said:Good clarification regarding what type of degree he would pursue and also pointing out that the examples I cited are not great comparisons. Firmly believe it is a moot point, VA isn't going anywhere.

One other thing to note: coaches don't operate under the assumption that an increase in pay alone qualifies a promotion. Most head coaches I've met would rue going somewhere else to be a coordinator. Once you run the show, it's hard to leave that behind.
