Nothing wrong with being ticked, but business is business. I don't know anyone who wants to retain a job that doesn't come out in full support of his current job or boss. Nothing different from Archie versus some dude wanting to climb the ladder in sales...only to leave for another job with a higher ceiling. It is what it is.
Quite honestly, my being upset with Archie has less to do with him leaving and more to do with how he left. I don't mean how he said he'd be at Dayton as long as they would have him, I mean by mentally checking out before the GW game. In my opinion, and that of other college BB fans, including IU fans, he left UD shortly after the VCU game. Had he mentally coached UD the remainder of the season, it may have led to a higher seed or better 1st round matchup, and who knows where that would have led. His perception of UD not being able to compete became reality because he gave up and was ready to move on. Again, just my opinion and that of other fans, not just UD, and I have no problem if you disagree.
