See things like telling his players how to stand for the anthem came across

as performative and phony to me. Then again most things Buzz did came across that way. And of course it was apparent from his first day that he was looking for a bigger job. Pretty much every season we had to deal with him being interested in an opening. Then you have the fact that he used all our recruiting visits prior to leaving. Then there are the apparent recruiting violations. Add those all up and I feel even more confident in my initial impression.
