    This is news to you? I've been saying he's a piece of shit for a long time.

    " he has a history of dodging blame in scandals that have festered on his campuses, sometimes moving on to a more lucrative job before their full extent becomes known. Now as the top cop in college sports, he has talked tough, calling for more integrity in college sports and cracking down on wayward programs, including those that failed to blow the whistle, such as Penn State and Miami. But in his previous positions, Emmert has drawn criticism for not moving nearly as aggressively against problems that occurred under his watch."

    UConn, LSU, Montana State, UDub, failure to properly address the issues at Miami. He's total trash.

    Emmert is who got Saban here. Had he never left Nick might still be here.

    Don't you understand that they aren't garbage when they are here but immediately gain the trash title upon departure?

    "Personal philanthropy is a private matter for individuals and their families," Emmert's statement said.

    No arguments here.

    Nah. Saban left for an NFL gig. I'm pretty sure he was the highest paid coach at the time already so it wasn't about money. Plus he left in the middle of the night how could anyone stop that?

    Very true...Emmert he was in the process of negotiating for the cox student athlete academic center and raising capital wasn't going as swiftly as planned. Hence...New blood in Saban and the figure head he needed to speed up the process. Not the other way around as most suggest. They were a great match in getting shit done.
