Exactly. That's the hypocrisy I was talking about. Coach made it all about honor and integrity, and he seemed to delude himself into thinking that he was living up to that until the very end. That's what cost him the $1M, I think. Not the manipulation and stabbing people in the back, not even telling Cochrane he was Hercules. It was the way in which everyone could see that he had not only lied, but had done so while berating others for lack of honor and integrity.
I thought one of the smartest things Sophie did at TC was to reveal how the HII was found and how Coach participated in praying that it would be found when he had it in his pocket. The look on Brandon's face was priceless.
Since I haven't watched the reunion yet, I don't know if it was covered or not -- do we know how the jurors (other than Cochrane and Dawn) voted?
