Rumors about Molitor already flying. I'm thinking Wedge, myself.

David Brandon has fallen on his sword. The university has scheduled a 1:30 p.m. news conference to announce it.

Congratulations, Michigan fans! Now you'll get a new AD to hire the same football coach.
My hand to God, she's gonna be at Carnegie Hall. But you - I'll let you have her now at the old price, OK? Which is, which is anything you wanna give me. Anything at all.

Is Don Canham available?
I used to be with it, but then they changed what 'it' was. Now, what I'm with isn't 'it,' and what's 'it' seems weird and scary.

One of his daughters was a prof in my masters program. She was a ditz.

Middle row, right picture, ditz on the left. I'm thinking that's her daughter next to her.

I've read that Brandon resigned and that he'll get $3 million. After resigning. I'm trying to wrap my head around this Turkia-eque coda.

I don't get how this bullshit makes it into a contract AFTER the part about the millions he'll get if he quits/gets fired:

The University will pay the cost of COBRA for Brandon and his dependents' health benefits through June 30, 2015.

Brandon retains the use of two company cars through the end of the year.
Hmmmm....maybe I should be a large map of metro Detroit for on my wall, so I better know the relationship of my city and the suburbs. - Supersport

USC announced Sunday afternoon that its embattled second-year coach is taking a leave of absence. It has been a brutal few months for Sarkisian – he is going through a divorce, he made an embarrassing public appearance in August under the influence of alcohol and/or medication, and a team that began the season in the top 10 is now 3-2 and unranked.
https://sports.yahoo.com/news/steve-sarkisian-s-leave-of-absence-is-another-black-mark-on-pat-haden-s-usc-reign-233405767.html


It's sad this guy's life is coming apart at the seams in front of a national audience, but geez, I'd like to think USC would've sat him down after the August gaffe and intensely asked him if he needed help ... or just decided he needed it and took action there and then.

A friend invited me to the USC-Notre Dame game this weekend (the thump would've had a lot more bass about four weeks ago). Looking forward to seeing a night game at Notre Dame (and secretly rooting for the Irish to lose) but this looks like it'll be a blowout.
