What is Rich Rodriguez doing? Could criminal charges be pending?

I am watching a respected coach try every dirty trick in the book to try to screw a state school out of $4 million dollars.

First after finding out that the school was going to hold him to his $4 million buyout clause he goes to his office and spends the next couple of days doing as much damage as possible to hurt the schools football program by shredding, burning, or just destroying everything he can touch.

Then he files a $1.5 million suit with the courts demanding the alumni association open up their books so he can prevent the school from making him pay his $4 million buyout clause. If his contract had a $4 million buyout clause in it, why would this even matter?

Now, he is trying to convince people that he was fired from WVU. And, since he was fired from WVU for accepting Michigan's offer he is not responsible for any of the $4 million.

I wonder what Rich Rodriguez will try next?


Criminal Charges: As a state employee couldn't the Dept. of Justice bring Rodriguez up on criminal charges of trying to embezzle or defraud the State of West Virginia for $4 million?

I'm no lawyer, but the answer is no. Civil case that will have to go through years of appeals before he is forced to pay.
