OT - New Pitt HC and ND alum Mike Haywood arrested for domestic violence
One week after being named the new head coach at Pittsburgh, ND alum Mike Haywood was arrested on domestic violence charges. Talk about bad timing. I wonder how the Pitt AD will handle this.
Last post before going out for NYE. Hope you all have a fun and safe NYE. See you in 2011.

Different circumstances but reminds me of Mike Price at Bama over 10 years ago. I can't see him keeping that job.
December 31st, 2010 at 7:47 PM ^
Thanks honey you just cost me my job. You know what 50,000 battered women all have in common? they just don't listen.

About as funny as lynching and holocaust jokes.
December 31st, 2010 at 7:52 PM ^
Different levels of alleged criminal misbehavior there, that's for sure.
Price's recruiting of Lori Destiny was not his best idea.
December 31st, 2010 at 8:16 PM ^
Very different circumstances. I remember one stripper saying that Price was gentle. However it wasnt enough for Bama.

Not a big fan of Deadspin, but it has the key information:

The woman, who declined comment when asked if she was paid for the evening, said that the threesome engaged "in some pretty aggressive sex." She said that at one point she and her female companion decided to add a little levity to the activity: "We started screaming 'Roll Tide!' and he was yelling back, 'It's rolling, baby, it's rolling.'"
December 31st, 2010 at 8:48 PM ^
Best line ever. I look at Mike Price very differently.
January 1st, 2011 at 10:58 AM ^
Who can ever hear "Roll Tide" again without thinking, "It's rolling, baby. It's rolling?"
Never has so few screwed up so much for so many.
December 31st, 2010 at 11:14 PM ^
he can't keep his job after this. maybe wannstedt just steps back in and takes the reins for one last run in 2011.

it was 7 years ago

...to Pitt rumors in 3...2...
Oh wait, it's already happening:
TimBrando If this Haywood story proves to be solid, it's as sad a story as we've seen in a long time. One observation. Maryland, you better hurry up!
December 31st, 2010 at 7:52 PM ^
Twitter is like rumors on four loko
December 31st, 2010 at 7:51 PM ^
What do you say to a women with 2 black eyes? Nothing you already told her twice.
December 31st, 2010 at 7:57 PM ^
Can someone say, "George O'Leary?"
December 31st, 2010 at 8:08 PM ^
Was he the one that got shitcanned at ND?
December 31st, 2010 at 8:20 PM ^
Yeah for making stuff up on his resume IIRC.
December 31st, 2010 at 8:04 PM ^
December 31st, 2010 at 9:34 PM ^
Sadly I beleive he died of brain cancer.

Sorry for the downer, but he was a great player and really impressive to watch.

The Pitt AD should call Wanny and lay the "just kidding" card. "You thought I was serious? Oh man, I was so messing with you. I can't believe you believed me. You know I'm a pankster. You look younger. Are you using that just for men stuff on your mustache. No. Well you don't need it. You know what the gray says to me?. Sophisticated. You are a sophisticated, handsome man. So you're going to coach our bowl game right? Wait, where are you going?"
December 31st, 2010 at 8:45 PM ^
Karmic retribution for canning Wannstache, who brought them back to respectability. What horrors are waiting for Maryland?
December 31st, 2010 at 8:57 PM ^
I hope none of that karma awaits us if RR is canned. Isn't a blank hating god enough?

SEC -Oh and Three!
EDIT* Whoops thought I was in the chick filet thread.

Domestic Violence Charge
Widely known as the best possible way to impress a new employer
December 31st, 2010 at 9:31 PM ^
It is a sign of today's twisted, money driven world that this would even be a thought, and I'm emarrased that it is my thought but...
It is ironic and sad that by doing the right thing (assuming the domestic violence was real) and going to the police, the accuser may have a large hand in Haywood losing his job and big PAYDAY at PITT. Haywood's lost income may actually cost the accuser a lot of future child support and potential alimony(?)
Strange but possible.
January 1st, 2011 at 7:20 AM ^
Are you blaming a victim for the potential and speculated loss of Haywood's job by chance? On top of that, are you pointing out a loss of money for the victim, implying that if the victim would just not have reported such a crime, she would've ended up with more money by simply divorcing him? What is your message by posting this thought?
January 1st, 2011 at 9:22 AM ^
You'll note that I said that going to the police was DOING THE RIGHT THING. Where do you read in that I was blaming the victim?
I was pointing out the irony of doing the right thing.
January 1st, 2011 at 8:52 AM ^
Although you may be right it is often that power of money over women that cause many of them to not report the crimes. Better off poor than dead.
December 31st, 2010 at 9:34 PM ^
as the head coach of PITT and the AD Steve Pederson may follow him out the door. As the bourbon is kicking in I am letting my feelings go.....DB's handling of the CC is disgracefull, his decision to let this fetter is a joke. DB should have made one of two decisions a month ago RR has my support or we are going in a different direction. On the bright side, the PITT fiasco will take some media attention off our amatuer AD. We look like ND happy new year.
December 31st, 2010 at 9:46 PM ^
After watching Notre Dame dismantle Miami, I'd love to look like ND tomorrow.
December 31st, 2010 at 11:11 PM ^
do you mean "Fretter"?
January 1st, 2011 at 12:39 AM ^
First there was the Nebraska fiasco when in error, he hired Bill Callahan instead of Harry Callahan, and now this!
December 31st, 2010 at 10:09 PM ^
well played. Looking forward to the return of Michigan to the national stage.

OT - Former Pitt HC and ND alum Mike Haywood arrested for domestic violence
December 31st, 2010 at 11:58 PM ^
The guy is in jail until a judge can see him. That might not happen till Monday, with the Holidays.
Also, OPEN SEASON on recruiting begins again, I think, on Tuesday. If Pitt has any recruits worthy of Michigan, we'll know our coaching situation on that day and will be able to poach away a guy who can help. They have two 4-star DTs plus a 4-star athlete (running QB).
This guy and the AD who hired him are real dorks. The AD was the same bozo who hired Callahan for Nebraska and set them back 3-4 yrs.
