Rodriguez Offers to Pay Part of Buyout
January 31, 2008 | 1 Comment
In what appears to be an attempt to finally bring a close to what’s become a very messy divorce, Michigan coach Rich Rodriguez has offered to pay $1.5 million of his $4 million buyout to West Virginia. According to ESPN’s Mark Schlabach Rodriguez filed a letter of credit Tuesday with the U.S. District Court in Clarksville, WV. The letter says “in the spirit of compromise and as an act of good faith to assure West Virginia University that if this Honorable Court makes an award against Defendant, said monies will be paid.” That’s probably the first gesture of good faith that’s happened since Rodriguez accepted the Michigan job.
Keeping with the spirit of good faith, a representative of West Virginia said the university won’t settle for $1.5 million. Looks like this is going to keep on being ugly.
