If you are a Seinfeld fan you will recall the episode where the epitome of a sad sack, George Costanza, decided to do everything the complete opposite of what he he thought he should do. His decision making was making a mess of his life so he decided one day to go the complete opposite. I wonder if Rich Rodriguez should follow the Costanza method?
The man can't do anything right. No sooner than he answers the questions about going over the practice time limits, the AP is reporting that he had dealings with a banned booster while at Clemson. I don't know if any of this amounts to a hill of beans but you can bet the old guard at Michigan are going to get really tired of the taint that comes from the accusations. Perception is reality. It does not matter if there are UFOs. If you believe in the UFOs then UFOs are real. I see some people coming to Rodriguez defense, including Kirk Herbstreit. It does not matter. He comes across like a used car salesman. He left West Virginia under a cloud of controversy and can't seem to get away from it. I am an objective guy. Some Buckeye fans are salty about the fact that I am an objective guy. I am also known for being a straight no chaser kinda guy so here it is. Rodriguez comes across as slimy. It does not matter if a guy has never gone to jail, if he keeps getting arrested people are going to think he is a criminal. Rodriguez keeps getting himself into situations that make even the most objective fan question his character, and that reflects poorly on Michigan. I have been very interested in how the new way of playing the game that Rodriguez brings with him would impact the conference. I think it changes the conference or it fails miserably and he gets fired. Too much more of this and getting fired will not have anything to do with football. The wins need to start mounting as quickly as the accusations for him to stay long enough to see if he can change the conference.
The good news for Michigan fans? At least he isn't Lane Kiffin.
