 What did Rich Rodriguez do now to ruffle the feathers at WVU? ::
|
|
Just when you think the Rich Rodriguez-to-Michigan story can't get any juicier, word comes from Morgantown that the former WVU coach may have destroyed all the paperwork relating to every player -- past and present -- over the past seven years. We agree with R-Rod's agent, Mike Brown, who is baffled that the school didn't have copies of such important records. For those late to the Rodriguez-to-Michigan party, the Wizard of Odds has done an excellent job tracking all the craziness since the coach's departure from Morgantown.

|
Think the Rodriguez saga has gone on too long at West Virginia? It's nothing compared to the Duke lacrosse case, which broke nearly two years ago and still has legs. The latest news involves former Durham District Attorney Mike Nifong, who lost his job and his career over his zealous prosecution of the Duke lacrosse case, and filed for bankruptcy yesterday with a reported debt of $180.3 million and assets of $243,898.
