Quitting before the bowl game does suck, but it is just an exhibition. Cincinnati doesn't get any reward if they beat Florida, so who cares who's coaching. Were there a playoff it'd be different. Plus this is prime recruiting season and ND is hurting for players. If they don't have someone out there trying to sign kids they're going to be left with nothing but Rudy's playing for them next year.
For teams that DON"T get to BIG time bowl games, this is as big as it gets for Cincy. It's NOT just another game.
The Head Coach is NOT the only person that does the recruiting, they should have others there still that can do some of the work. were only talking 2 weeks.
Like I said, move the commitment back 2 weeks.
