Shocked that it hasn't happened already. The fact that the AD saw this several months ago and only suspended Rice for like 3 games means he should go as well.

So, while we're all concerned, at times, with the progress the Athletic Department has made w/ upward momentum...we can all be glad we avoid situations like this, Billy Clyde G., Mike Leach, etc...

How did he even retain any players, I figure with that behavior players would have transferred left and right.

If Saban or Urban Meyer were filmed at a practice calling players fags and throwing footballs at them, would they get fired?

I guess winning cures everything.

I would say no way. He'd just be seen as a fiery, passionate coach.

Would he have been fired if the videos didn't hit the press? I'd like to think so, but their hands are forced when this becomes public

No. The AD saw these videos last fall and only gave Rice a 3 game suspension

What a piece of scum Rice is. I am shocked that one of the players didn't whoops his behind.

The AD and the Pres should be fired over the cluster.

The ONLY reason Rice was fired was b/c the video went viral.

The one swear word this North Korean message board allows is "fags"?

Wow. Typical.

Can't see what the fuss is about. I've seen harder thrown balls at a women's dodge ball game. He kinda looked like a girlie man throwing some of those balls. Heck, I saw Woody Hayes slug one of his own players and nothing was though of it.
