I didn't think so.

Actually there has been a fair amount of reporting on it. News like this does not usually make it onto ponyfans so if you rely on this board for your news it would have been easy to miss.

If the ousted track coach files suit claiming racial and/or gender bias on behalf of the university, couldn't UT be almost forced to fire Applewhite? (Maybe they could hire Vince Young to replace him. Rumor has it he's out of work and needs a job.)

Oh ... as for Texas having such a stellar offseason: BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

"Case was closed,no charges filed"....."players' attorneys notified that they were no longer being investigated"......no other details available . I think my point was just made ?

I will admit to my interest being piqued by this quote, although the article clears things up by saying "during the 2009 Fiesta Bowl festivities".

And some people wanted this orange bozo to be our coach...

Maybe she should have had atty Joe Jamail represent her? For those that don't know, Jamail is one of the largest donors at UT. During law school, we used to joke that the only thing not named after him was the [deleted].

The idea of Jamail negotiating with Dodds over Applewhite's punishment is ludicrous. Not only does Jamail tell Dodds what is up, he practically owns UT Pres Bill Powers.

That is flat out automatic dismissal these days - and that is what the Pres and the trustees at UT are probably [deleted] about - since they apparently never knew about the Applewhite deal. Now they have a giant problem since they fired a different coach for the same thing....Applewhite could very well be dismissed for this and probably should be. The atty for the other coach has to be giggling about this....it will create an automatic giant settlement, regardless of the outcome of applewhite since they gave him a pass two years ago for the same thing.

also makes Deloss look pretty stupid. he had to have known about both situations. he thought he had the Applewhite deal buried and now it has risen like frankenstein.

When bad news absolutely has to be addressed, late Friday is the ideal time. The fact that it's two days before the Super Bowl is as perfect a scenario as UT could ask for.
