Just heard it on College Gameday.

Mark May's comments: "He said Hawaii was his dream job, but for him to take this job, they are offering him double the money, better facilities, better financial support, it's going to be a lot for him to consider."

Lou Holtz's comments: "If he thinks it's tough making a 3rd and 8 call against Georgia, turning down $2 million dollars, that's a tough choice."

See, even guys in and around the college football biz think it's going to be tempting for Jones to leave Hawaii.

I've always thought Holtz sounded (and analyzed) as if he just came off a six-day bender, but Mark May is sharp as hell. Hope he's right with this one.
