Another reason was geographic logistics, since he does have the ridiculously busy job as superintendent of the Edwardsville, Illinois, School District, and doesn't like being too far away from Edwardsville too much.

There was an article on Randy McCall last year. He has (or had?) a public education job and the new leadership at the school district had a problem with the amount time he was missing from school, particularly certain events they felt he should be required to attend.
