Valpo football coach resigns

Valparaiso University's football coach, Tom Horne, resigned yesterday after 16 years at the school. He said "the time was right" and that he wanted to spend more time with his family. I think there has to be something more to it than that. It's nearly time for practice to begin for the season, so the time to quit could hardly be more wrong. He's leaving his former employer and more importantly, his kids, in quite a bind.

Perhaps the plan behind the timing was to make sure one of his assistants got promoted.

Here's the Times story on this.
