Good luck to him. At least he is already accustomed to cold winters!

So I guess this means he is not going to coach the Appalachian Football Club

I'm sure RMU pays better. It'll be interesting to see if he stay involved at all. I would assume not, as college coaches (in any sport) have to focus so heavily on their current job.

He said in an interview he'd still be involved, but on the business level now. Him eventually becoming a college coach again was known to the ownership group, so they had planned on that happening. It just happened a little sooner than expected. He mentioned a lot of people with interest in the region. I'm not a soccer guy, so I have no idea who that could be, but he seemed optimistic about finding a solid replacement.
