Audiotapes of Rick Neuheisel prove that he lied numerous times regarding his participation in a high-stakes betting pool on the NCAA basketball tournament. Who does he think he is, Dave Bliss?
a) I'm surprised neither of you mentioned that Neuheisel filed a lawsuit over his firing. What a 'tard! b) I'm not sure he belongs in the pros either, I think his current gig as volunteer assistant for a high school team is just about right. Easier for him to start drinking heavily and end up driving a forklift in a warehouse. And living in a van down by the river.

This is predictably big news up here in Seattle. Fortunately, people are finally starting to talk a bit more about opening day, which is next Saturday against a Clarett-less Ohio State. Rick was hired partially because of pressures on the school to bring in a "big name" coach like Don James. We knew he had baggage and history and didn't care. We got precisely what we asked for. Every University out there knows what Rick is about, almost all are willing to compromise their principles for a few wins and a bowl game and some dough. He's destined for the pros eventually.
