Having a bad day? At least you aren't Rich Rodriguez
Quote | Reply
I have to say, couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. But geez this guy's life has imploded this week.

Fired from U of AZ. Affair exposed. Using staff to cover up affair. Sexual harassment allegations.

The report is as follows: "The notice of claim alleges, among other things, that Rodriguez and his closest aides followed a "hideaway book" that detailed such sayings as 'Title IX doesn't exist in our office.' Those who had the most interaction with Rodriguez — the former employee and two assistant coaches — referred to themselves as the 'Triangle of Secrecy,' according to the claim. The three were charged with lying to Rodriguez's wife to cover up an extramarital affair, according to the claim, and were ordered to protect the coach's reputation above all else."

Now this:
it turns out the former ​Arizona head man also knew of his player's battle with addiction, and did nothing, throwing out the absurd quote, "He'll be fine."
He died the next day.

Player was brought to him by another person and he blew it off. What a guy.

I'm beginning to think that we are much more fucked than I thought.

A disaster for the University of Michigan. A disaster at Arizona. This guy is a Jonah. ;-)

I always thought his nickname "Rich Rod" should belong to a porn star. It's never too late for him....
