TitanTiger 20,510 Posted November 24, 2007 Author Share Posted November 24, 2007 And on top of that, according to some folks watching it on TexAgs, Fran just walked out of the presser when the AD was about to go up and speak. http://texags.com/main/forum.reply.asp?top...&forum_id=5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarolinaTiger 0 Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 if you caught his brief interview on the field right after the game, you could tell the gig was up. he was incredibly short w/ his responses to the questions. i'm sure he enjoyed winning this one on his way out.

PChamp119 96 Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Did anyone see the press conference? He says how he is resigning effective immediately in a press conference with the AD, and then as the AD begins to speak, he just stands up and leaves. I like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLAG-91 1,483 Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 His "resignation" was very similar to Terry Bowden's in 1998, although the timing is different (end of season vs. midseason)...this was a "we'll let you save some face and allow you to resign if that's what you choose...door #2 is that you're fired." I also get the feeling that Bill Byrne is going to hire someone that is not in the current rumor mill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
