An odd time to fire a coach. They may lose this year's recruits and next year's. And then too late to make inroads with new players.
Said he wasn't healthy enough to coach...
Seems he has had these health issues for years. Almost sounds like he quit and not fired.
Fired pays him the rest of his contract...
Ok
They did him a solid...that's my take anyway...
Rick Pitino fired...wow
There may be a clause in the contract he can be fired with cause and not get paid
fairly certain sickness isn't cause
MG must not have any pigeons to feed today...
UNC losing by 12 in the second half to some school called Wofford.
First ever victory for Wofford over a ranked team.
They dominated the 15 minutes or so I saw. Good shooters on woffard and they went something like 19-22 in free throws.
Amazing armed forces bowl. Army scores a td with 18 seconds left and goes for a two point conversion to take the lead instead of the kick to tie. Then a game saving tackle on the SDSU 40 on the kickoff to save the game. Go Army, Beat Navy!
