One quick observation here. Sark leaving for the NFL is being painted in every possible light, mostly negative. Problems between he and Lord Saybinz. Saybinz didn't want him anyway. Sark used Saybinz.
Personally, I can't find one fuck to give about their relationship.
But, I think what we in the South don't really seem to grasp is that college football is king....here in the South. You get outside the confines of War Eagle/Row Tahd, Hobby Lobby and The Big Bowl of Cheetos, the NFL is the big dog. By a long shot. For many in the corching profession, making it in the NFL is the dream, the pinnacle of success. Again, don't give two flippity fricks what went on between LS and Sark. But, it may be as simple as the NFL came calling on a west coast guy and he jumped at the chance.
