    There you go. Yeah, for that kind of money I can see him sticking around.
    For that kind of money, I could see Otro viewing this as something to cut.

        Would be cool if he took a lot of staff and players with him.
        Utah staff only please!

          • The staffer in the UM scandal retains job and received a substantial pay increase from 2024 and 2025. Making $58K to $99K.

            Michigan Man and all their integrity sure is shinning through in all of this.

              Do you think you might have a bias in this? What is the staffer was taken advantage of? What if Sherrone did something problematic? Why are you blaming the staffer???

                Bias?? Yes. But, come on.

                I am not sure how to respond to your question here. Bias has nothing to do with this. You have two individuals having an affair for multiple years as willing participants. HC is fired for his conduct. Other person involved who is employed by UM is still working. How is she not equally to blame???

                I mean, we just saw this past year the CEO and HR lady for a big company caught on the big screen at a concert where he resigned as did she. There is no way she doesn’t have some code of conduct in her contract either. How does she even still have a job.

                    Those seem like different situations to me. Sure they are both bosses with subordinates but in the latter case they are both in leadership positions in the company, so it is less of a ”taking advantage of the other” situation.

                    The head of HR may be concerned with advancing her career with this situation but you can really claim she would be worried about losing her job and her lively hood, unlike a lowly assistant who is probably a lot more concerned about putting food on the table.

                    So the former situation has a much bigger case for coercion than the latter.

                    That being said. I’m sure the head of HR had some kind of settlement to prevent the company from being sued.

                        I thought she didn't have a job anymore, that he fired her and that is what precipitated the whole thing.

                        I will admit though that I haven't really followed it so I may be wrong.

                        • Here's some more Moore details from the prosecutor's office:

                          The prosecutor also detailed that Moore had an "intimate relationship" with the woman he worked with for "a number of years" before she ended the relationship Monday.

                          The split prompted a flurry of calls and texts from Moore that the woman did not return. Moore is married to another woman, and they have three children.

                          Moore's actions in the wake of his former lover breaking up with him led her to go to officials at Michigan and detail their relationship. The school had previously investigated a tip about the situation, sources have told ESPN but could not prove it occurred.

                          The woman's admission and supporting evidence led the school to quickly dismiss Moore for cause, saying he violated both his contract and university policy. Michigan will not have to pay Moore the nearly $12.3 million remaining on his deal because he was fired for cause.
                          if I were a betting man, I'd wager that some of those communications were of a threatening nature.

Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

                            Interesting that the lady waited until after the signing period to break off the relationship

                              Of course they are going to give her a job. The school is vulnerable to a sexual harassment lawsuit and will lose. She should sue Michigan's ass off.
