Transfer Portal 2025

I know retiring isn't an easy decision, but it seems like such a jerkish move to wait till the first day of practice to do this. Dude has had well over five months since their season ended to think it over. The cynic might suggest he timed it this way to make sure his son gets the job. But whatever his motive, it sucks for any players who didn't know this was a real possibility. They had to rebuild most of their roster, and you have to think at least some of those players would have made a different decision if they knew he wasn't going to be around.
the school knew months ago .. they had a new 5 year deal already agreed upon for his son
 
This whole Pearl deal seems weird. It absolutely looks like he waited until now to make sure his son gets the job. Unless there’s a health problem that hasn’t been disclosed that came up suddenly. It can’t be a scandal because Auburn wouldn’t hire his son if that was true.

They certainly knew he was thinking about it, but I don't think anyone truly knew he was going to bail. And if they did, shame on them for being complicit in screwing the players. Apparently there was talk he may run for Senate (since Tommy T has obviously been such a brilliant politician lol), but he said yesterday he isn't doing that.

Yeah I didn't know they hired his son when I made the scandal comment.

you can't have a 5 year contract ready to roll in a day ..


and he is staying on at the school in a different roll

Sure you can, if you viewed the son as the coach-in-waiting. I would guess Houston already has a pretty good idea of what kind of contract they will give Kellen if they follow through on their plan to name him coach whenever Kelvin retires. You don't have to necessarily know when that day will come in order to have a lot of that stuff lined up.

kellen is the already announced coach in waiting ..

Pearl retiring was known inside the Athletic Dept over the summer .. I will just say that ..
