DICKROD: WVU RENEGED ON BUYOUT CONTRACT

This doesn’t look good for Rich. Jeffrey Wakefield has argued in front of every judge in the state… often as a lawyer.

Second!!!!

Sloppy seconds?

Wow!

mike schiefer who videoed “sucks” underneath Rich Rodriguez Is a genius. His greatness of coming up with such an asstounding slander is second only to his need to share his greatness of the world.

next week Rich Rodriguez licks snot t-shirt, the video.

Who gets to rewrite a resignation letter? And how can you expect it to mean anything a month (and a lawsuit) later?

Jesus, I hope someone’s banning all these slashdot dickwads.

on the topic at hand RR is pretty well F’d if this is true. I’m no lawer but I know enough to know that what’s signed carries a most of the weight in a contract dispute than what one side claims the other said. They also usually carry a clause that incorporate all previous agreements, written or otherwise.

If at first you don’t suceed…write another resignation letter? I’m confused.

Also, the guy in the video is a comic genius. “Sucks.” Why waste time with creativity when you can shoot straight at the heart?

I would hire him at EDSBS, Swindle. Your comedy, while unique, is a little to high-brow for those simple West Virginians. This guy can help reach out to WVU fans, as well as the 2-4 y/o demographic so coveted by sports bloggers these days.

1. I’m thinking that this was a resubmission after the video he made of himself pooping on said shirt was rejected by the youtubes.

I don’t know what’s worse. That this story won’t go away, or the volumes of poorly done video’s coming out of WV. It’s making the flesh merchants of high school recruiting look pretty cool by comparison.

I’m guessing that was his third attempt at spelling “sucks”.

Wow, you really told him buddy. RR is probably sleepless at night beneath the barrage of such scathing assaults on his name and reputation.

Reality Show-Time Dept:

I would put Rodriguez on that game show where they hook the ‘contestants’ to a lie detector test and ask tough questions.

If Rodriguez answers truthfully, he gets off scott-free. If not the Univ of West F Virginia gets it $4 mill. But, prior to THAT question, I would ask him the following question:

1) Coach Rod, do you put a bag over your wife’s head, or you wish you could put a bag over her head prior to making whoopee?

2) Do you still feel like an a-hole for not taking the ’Bama job last year for $4 mill per year?

Man… the grammar, logic, structure and everything else in my last comment sucked!

The coach that elevated our program to top 10 status and left only for one of the best jobs in the country SUCKS!

Ok, what I don’t understand is why he is contesting it in the first place. Why is Michigan not just paying the $4mil. and everybody moving on with their lives? This leaves me to consider which of the following four events occurred:

1) Michigan convince RR to sign but refused to cover the buyout.
2) Michigan and RR decided to see if they really had to pay the buyout
3) RR told Michigan they wouldn’t have to pay the buyout
4) WVU agreed to nix the buyout and reneged

If anybody else has any suggestions, please I would like to hear them

Jesus, Tar Heel fan, you either finished Carolina or are a Carolina fan, nobody has more sidewalk alumnae than Carolina, thus…

be more clever.

We have a reputation to uphold. We = the family (sans VPI, as they aren’t really in the ACC, trust me, I will figure out a way to evict them.)

Oh, and a friendly reminder to my friends in Cola:

In 49 states and every other country in the world…

Carolina is in Chapel Hill. Carolina is in the Atlantic Coast Conference.

Conversely, in approximately 45 states…

USC is in Los Angeles. USC is in the Pacific 10 Conference, which had an enjoyable basketball contest between UCLA and Oregon, last evening.

A friend of mine who is an actual lawyerin’ person informed me that the reason for a buy-out is to help offset losses caused by RR leaving the contract early (coaching searches and the like), not to be punitive. I think he explained to me that this is the basis for RR challenging the $4 million, that the amount was excessive and punitive. Given how quickly they hired and how little they hired for, that might help his cause.

Of course, I’m not a lawyerin’ type myself, so take that with a grain of salt.

I really thought that shirt was going to get set on fire. What a let down.

as a west virginian who was neither born there nor went to school at WfVU but lived there most of his formative years until escaping to north carolina and nyc, respectively, i’m very disappointed the video guy didn’t at least try to burn the t-shirt. i mean, we used to drive to vt with couches in the bed of the pick-up when we played down there.

Coop, I think the collective intelligentsia at EDSBS uses USCw for the school in Los Angeles and USCe for Spurrier’s Home for Wayward Boys.

We Southerners have trouble with initials (down here UM is Meeami, see what I mean).

So how does one suck a football camp?

I was pretty dismayed that someone would make the effort to videotape himself writing “sucks” on a t-shirt, until I realized I watched all 30 seconds of the clip. In any case, I wish Al-Qaeda would adopt this format for their videos.

Sure, writing “sucks” on a t-shirt is uninspired, but at least he isn’t harrassing children and old people. For an angry West Fucking Virginia fan he’s downright debonaire.

I think this video is a masterpiece.

But I also think “There Will Be Blood” and “Atonement” were both huge letdowns.

Girlfriend: Sorry. It’s not working out with us anymore. I’m leaving.

Dumped Boyfriend: What? We were having a good time, I’m giving you more of my paycheck now after that whole incident with that guy from Alabama last year. Why you leaving me? We’re engaged!

Girlfiriend: Look, it’s not you. It’s me. The wedding is off. I just need to do something with my life. I’ve met someone. Could you please forward my mail until the post office sets up my change of address?

Boyfriend: (looks at new address card)- Wtf? Michigan? I don’t get it. Whatever. Just give me back my ring. I spent a fortune on that.

Girlfriend: Um, no. I hocked it and bought a sweet pad in Ann Arbor with the guy I met, Yost.

BF: What do you see in him?

GF: Well, he showed interest. You took me for granted, never coming through with the promises you kept making… you know about a better house, new furniture, arts and culture. Plus, he’s loaded and he’s well hung and having surgery to make it bigger by next fall!

BF: What a fag! Besides those promises were just to get you to go anal- just kidding. I’ll get you a better house, baby. I promise. You like it here, don’t go!

GF: I always hated it here. Yost’s friends and family think you guys are a bunch of hicks,and think you should get over me. There’s more fish in the sea. Just let it be, ok? If you don’t even want to be friends still, I’ll hate that, but that’s your decision. Please don’t talk bad about me to our friends, ok?

BF: What about my ring?!?!?

GF: You gave it to me, remember? You said it was mine for eternity, even if I turned down your proposal. That ring is gone, give it a rest.

BF: You’re a whore!!!! Give me back my ring. Where’s my stuff? What’ that you threw in the trash?!?!? Don’t ever come back around here!

oh wait – this isn’t Dear Cosmo? my bad

That video was like when Milhouse on the Simpsons told a kid: “I’ll kick your butt!…At nintendo.”

OOC, way to go. The “psycho ex” angle. I’ve set up a google alert to let me know when you can actually think for yourself rather than parrot what you see or hear. Dont try to be amusing. You just either have that or you don’t and, well, anyway, moving on…work on originality first. Then, we’ll see.

In the realm of performance art, this has to be the equivalent of trying to suck your own dick. This guy is like Flanders trying to curse, sad and not worth the air he breaths.

Oooooooohhh, burn.

Sadly, he didn’t actually try and burn the shirt.

WVUweaponx – yeah, I’m in agreement that my dialog sucked nuts, part of it was a joke for a guy that runs another great blog I read that also reads this site. Maybe you could work on the delivery a little better for me next time. I know, I’ll watch WWL and see the latest headlines out WV for more material.

Now please get back to your homework, helping Pa take the wheels off your home, or whatever you West by God kids do these days.

OOC

What clever weapon x does is a little ditty they like to call transgenerational huffing (or would do so if polysyllabic).

I think I understand why RR bolted to A2 now: to escape the thousands of toothless Sybils up there.

The interwebs have already settled the USC thing.

www.usc.edu = Pete Carroll’s Superfantastic Happy Hour, brought to you by Reggie Bush.

www.sc.edu = Steve Taneyhill’s Super Mullet Stomping Grounds

And there ya have it.

I haven’t seen any posts from Couch Burnin’ Girl. I hope she can give the definitive answer as what should be done from the WfV perspective.

18 you are a nincumfukingpoop…or your friend is. Hope he isnt doin’ his lawin where he can hurt anyone.

If Mr. I Resign Again will kindly pay us our 4 million we will gladly go about our business.

I agree RR should pay. A man can leave jobs if he wants, but should man up to his contract. What would be a funny laugh is if RR donated the money to the school’s School of Liberal Arts under the orders that it can’t go to athletics or the school or State’s general fund. Then he gets a tax writeoff, they’ll have to name the liberal arts bldg after him, and the athletic dept gets squat. That would be some funny shit.

Thanks for keeping it classy WV!
