He was just using bama to get what he wanted from the administration at WV. His family did not want to go to ttown especially after they heard all the trash talk about them on the local (AL) radio rags like Slimebum. It was ridiculous and classless which is what Slimebum is...he made fun of WV, his wife's hair,etc. because he wanted to influence the hire and Rodriquez was not his choice...he wanted Spurrier but he said no so he focused on $atan because they knew he could be bought and had no loyalty to anyone...he was ready to run somewhere after his miserable lack of success in the NFL. Rodriquez is happy at WV and I can't see him going anywhere else.
