Included in the whirlwind of news surrounding Todd Graham leaving the
University of Pittsburgh to accept the job at Arizona State, it was also
learned that Graham notified his team that he was leaving via text
message.

CBS Pittsburgh
printed the text, the body of which is included below:

I have resigned my position at Pitt in the best interest of my
family to
pursue the head coaching position at Arizona State. Coaching there has
always been a dream of ours and we have family there. The timing of the
circumstances have prohibited from telling you this directly. I now am on
my way to Tempe to continue those discussions. God Bless. Coach
Graham.
