So are we hoping Currdogg gets fired? I kinda am. (Never forget.)
It's hard to tell. He's saying that Jimmy Haslam made him offer Schiano. A bold move Cotton since Jimmy is the one who runs things (for now).
Coincidently, Jimmy Haslam was personally implicated in court today with regard to the Pilot Oil scandal (stealing money from companies buying gas from them).
This would not surprise me, now that I think about it after that went down. I was thinking to myself "Why in the world would he hire Schiano after the PSU stuff and his history in the NFL?" It just doesn't make sense.
Case in point, we all know that Currie ran a very active compliance department when he was here, and he would had his staff find stuff, real or imagined. Think of the receipt thing that got one of our players suspended. There's also some others that I'm just forgetting at the moment.
I also have to believe that he was worried about Frank Martin might do something stupid in terms of compliance (along with that I'm sure he just hates him) so tried to find ways to get rid of him. And he hired oscar Weber, who has no history of being involved in any kind of scandals or afoul with the NCAA.
Now he decides to get Schiano? Something just doesn't add up right, and it has to be someone who is very powerful.
