I agree with this. I think from an outside perspective, yes, Campbell should absolutely jump at the tOSU job if it opened up. But look deeper at Campbell’s words. I just don’t think his message holds as much weight at a program that can pluck 4-5 star prima donna talent with ease. It resonates with the less heralded but talented kids that have a chip on their shoulder. I thought Campbell would be gone after year 3 or 4 and now I’m not so sure. He doesn’t seem like the type to chase money, or program identity but rather a good fit and supportive fan base/administration.
This has been my point to people saying Campbell is going to leave. Matt Campbell doesn't seem to care about how much money he makes that's not why he does what he does. Jamie Pollard will keep increasing his salary as needed so there isn't a huge gap between how much he makes and how much he could make somewhere else. Right now, CMC is seen as an icon in Ames and has gained tons of respect from his peers. I truly don't think he's going to leave and go to a place where if he doesn't meet the expectations, they'll dump him as quickly as they hired him. CMC has talked about how special Ames feels and mentioned there was something about this place when he came to coach against us in 2014 I believe. He's also said he honestly believes this is a place that can win championships and I think he wants to be the one to help bring that to us.
He already sent them into sanctions once.
I agree. I really don't think Campbell would want to step into the program coming off of violations from such things.
You must not hang out in many game threads.
