Rich Rodriguez (official thread of last laughs)

Hail - I have to give you props. If there was a thread like this about my coach I would be spending all my time in the Romper Room. But you keep reading. Do you self flagellate as well?

(I said flagellate, not felate. I KNOW we have a bunch of those on this board.)

West Virginia sues, seeking $4 million buyout in Rodriguez's contract

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- West Virginia University's Board of Governors is suing former football coach Rich Rodriguez to collect a $4 million buyout of his contract with the school.

The lawsuit, filed Thursday in Monongalia County Circuit Court, states the university believes Rodriguez doesn't intend to abide by the contract.
The buyout clause requires Rodriguez to pay $4 million to West Virginia over a two-year period, with one-third of the total due 30 days after his employment's termination. His resignation was effective Dec. 19.
Rodriguez's agent, Mike Brown, declined to comment on the lawsuit.
Rodriguez went to Michigan after seven seasons in Morgantown, where he led West Virginia to four Big East championships and a 60-26 record.

Nah, I don't self-flagellate. And by self-flagellate, in this instance I mean "go into the Mike Hart thread, ever." Even I have limits.

yeah, but he chose to spend the money to get out. it wasn't a necessary expense. i'm no CPA, i'm just curious.

In tax law, necessary doesn't mean necessary. Its meaning is closer to useful.

Edit: to give context, I'll note that several tax professors agree that Bill Belichick can deduct his fine from his income for tax purposes because it is an ordinary and necessary business expense.

Two questions
How soon will he be expected to win the NC.?
How long will he last up there at scum if he doesn't?
I kind of think the fans will expect it within 3 years, the School 5 years and longer if he wins a few B10 trophies in the meantime
