Easy. Who can afford to live in the South Bay Area on a track coaches salary?

That is why we all love track and field, the numbers don't lie. Can somebody explain why one of the most successful coaches would leave a premier division I school, and one of the best programs in the country, for a job at a division III school in Ohio that most people, who aren't familiar with mid-west division III schools, including myself, have never heard of? Have I missed a few threads on this subject? Palo Alto, California vs. Oberlin, Ohio...hmmm...easy decision for me. Did the dancing tree or whatever the #$#! mascot on the farm attack Vin? Is there a sex scandal here; something to add a little life to this list; or maybe we should go back to the same old drug threads? Per the Oberlin website Oberlin is "easily accessible by car, plane or bus". Seriously, Oberlin is a private religious based university. Is Vin's reasoning religious based? This is quite a coup for the people involve at Oberlin.
