He left cause "Calling plays" wasnt a fun a CMR remembered. He was burnt out and fans were calling for his son's head. His top asst (Manny) just left and now he was stuck with a defensive staff who's resume looked alot like his sons. CFB is really a young(er) man's game and CMR was at a point where he would have to put in even more time than he did before.
We all should be grateful he left the way he did. Or we'd be stuck with Manny until CMR's buyout was fully paid off. IIRC, he left $20M on the table when he resigned. Can't say I would of done the same
Actually, we’d be better off had he not resigned. He probably would have flopped in 2019 and gotten fired. And although we’d have to pay Richt’s buyout, we probably wouldn’t make Manny his replacement, since Manny would have flopped at Temple.
