Holy crap, let the paint dry a bit Pollard. What a scum bag move, he was playing to go to the CWS last night. There's no way he could not have this on the back of his mind during the game.
Sucks but with the transfer portal open & UVA hemorrhaging players this is the way it’s done these days.

oh crap, I was thinking UNC. correct, just under 200
I had to do that drive somewhat frequently from the Research Triangle to Charlottesville about 10 years ago. You would have saved me a lot of money and time if it was a 15 minute drive instead of 3ish hours

We all know that a coach job shopping has zero impact on his performance

FFS it happens every year and its multiple coaches that do it.

How many hours after the last at bat last night did he wait? Less than 12. I can only remember Deion leaving JSU faster than that, flying directly up to Colorado and holding a meeting that same night.

I hate it as well. Seems disrespectful to the team, but this is a new era. Players can wait, coaches really can't.

This is looking from a fan perspective. This is just a job change for a coach. They don't have the same emotional investment.
