Well...if we were talking about the University of Nebraska at Moscow...
But...this is America...And Riley himself LITERALLY just jumped ship on his team/recruits/school in the middle of December.
It's going to happen and it's not going to change. But that doesn't make it good.
The biggest issue is the recruits have - I assume - been given the impression that a certain coach or coaches will be their coaches the next year. Some would claim they signed under false pretenses. If coaches leave in December, the recruit would know that before they signed.
