Rich Rodriguez (official thread of last laughs)

I think we need a hot or not on Mrs. RR.

Please no.

And still, Uno was best in show.

That's GPA worthy, right there.

I think that the whole chanting things was funny, but at the same time was totally classless. It's things like this that give teams down the road a slight edge, and things like this that give a lot of our good fans a bad name.

I kinda agree with you here, but I dont exactly think it was classless. If he was upset that the fans did it in front of his children, then fine thats the part that sucks. Could scUM fans have heckled JT during his speech in c-bus all those years ago....yes. That would mean that scUM fans would actually have to travel and support their team though. Im sure im missing the point but any chance to kick this guys balls in, is fine by me.

i think what [also] lacked class is some prude buffoon sober tOSU fan come over and cusses him out. keep yer trap shut and keep disagreements between you and the *offender*, especially when you're in somebody else's house![/rant]

Fredo, you're my older brother, and I love you. But don't ever take sides with anyone against the Family again. Ever.

I think it was a mistake for these students to heckle him.

Notwithstanding that he appears to be ethically-challenged, RR is not an idiot. The more that Ohio State students heckle him or whatever, the more support he will get and the more the TSUN faithful will buy into the notion that he is "a Michigan man".

Ask Terry Glenn, talking smack never leads to good things and often leads to bad things.

The bed sheet was great. If they had left it at that it would have been perfect.

BTW, was it "Dress up like Peggy Bundy Day" at Crisler?

 

[billmac91]

I wonder how the Michigan fans who had upper-level seats felt, when DRod asked "how are those seats up there" to the Buckeye hecklers?

Shocking that most schools backed off of this kid with exception to WVU and FSU.

I agree that heckling him in front of his kids was not in the best taste, but you would think he had Tass working as his PR department at WVU if he is overly suprised that something like that happened at a rivalry game.

[sarcasm]That is terrible news, it means if Devine is kicked off WVU, he will probably transfer to scUM, and he is admittedly the perfect RB in rr's read option, and just the type of quality kid that rr has attracted in the past.[/sarcasm]

It's certainly not that easy, and I have a hard time believing he'd get into tsun DickRod or not...

Oh, I agree, thus the sarcasm font, just playing into the rr is worse than the anti-Christ mantra. Although I do think somethings will have to change at TSUN, either the squeeky clean attitude or rr actions.

Dispatch

Rich Rodriguez sat in the first row behind a basket in Crisler Arena for the Ohio State-Michigan basketball game Sunday, and the Wolverines' new football coach seemed genuinely excited by Michigan's upset victory.
But there were times when he appeared to be feverishly punching numbers on a cell phone -- on one occasion he stopped punching to raise a celebratory fist over a Michigan three-point play -- prompting a visiting reporter to ask whether he was sending text-messages to recruits.
"No, we're not allowed to do that," Rodriguez said. "If we were, I would have been."
Maybe he was texting Indiana basketball coach Kelvin Sampson?

West Virginia wide receiver Darius Reynaud said he and some of his teammates started to get the feeling coach Rich Rodriguez might leave the Mountaineers soon after their stunning loss to Pittsburgh on Dec. 1 which knocked WVU out of title contention.

"We kind of figured he was going to leave because toward the end, things started changing around with him," Reynaud said. "We kind of figured something was up and we thought he was going to take the job at Michigan.

"Practice started becoming shorter. We weren’t conditioning a lot. So we knew something was up."

News broke Dec. 17 that Rodriguez was taking the Michigan job. West Virginia defeated Oklahoma, 48-28, in the Fiesta Bowl Jan. 2 with Bill Stewart as the interim coach. Stewart has since been hired as the head coach.

"I talked to coach Stewart before I left," Reynaud said. "He said he was behind me 100 percent. He said he’d talk to some guys for me. I really commend coach Stewart."

What an asshole.
