I attended the court hearing involving the WVU Mountaineers' former head football coach, Rich Rodriguez and his money hungry wife, Rita.
Yeah I could think of a few more adjectives to use in front of her name, but they are not permitted.
Oh! What I would have given to have been able to stay through the entire trial.
What a person will do for money. Of course, she showed up for the trial. She's all in it, supporting her low life scum of a husband, Rich. -rodthefraud- You know it!
If I had only been able to stay until the end, when the press was interviewing that lying -explicit-. She was running her slew of (total junk) lies against the WVU community.
You all who know me personally, KNOW (especially since I did not have my children with me, at the time) that I would have blurted out everything I could have, to rebut that Money Hungry -explicit-, and her cut downs!
Who the heck does she think she is? I guess it is better that I was not there because as the saying goes, [profanity omitted] would have hit the fan. There is one thing I can't stand and that's a liar.
SHAME ON YOU RITA! For it was a privilege that your low life scum of a hubby got the honor to coach on the beautiful campus of West Virginia University!
Rita & Rodthefraud 101, for the future, you scumbags!
1. Don't send a graduate assistant to deliver the resignation letter to the athletic director the next time you want to quit your job, just because being fired does not get you out of your 4 million dollar buy-out. This is what Rich Rodriguez did when leaving West Virginia.
2. Do not call a recruit to inform him about your departure prior to telling your athletic director. Rich Rodriguez DID in fact call Terrelle Pryor, a top recruit from Pennsylvania, who is being hailed as "Next Vince Young" by Rivals.com. Rodriguez did this before he told the people who had been signing his checks for seven years... well you all know the rest.
Yeah sure Rodriguez wanted the edge on the "next big thing," but calling the star player immediately, lacked the integrity, respect & class.
3. Try to abide by the 2-year rule. You don't have to actually be loyal, but you have to at least try to appear that way, every once and a while, in between surreptitious cell phone conversations, with your agent, on the sidelines.
Look more at Dennis Erickson, who spent 2006 at Idaho, going 4-8, before immediately jumping ship to Arizona State. Or, Todd Graham, the coach who spent one semi-miraculous year at Rice, before leapfrogging to Tulsa in '07, and he has already been associated with some of the current job searches.
Graham and Bobby Petrino have one thing in common, they signed contract extensions, then took jobs elsewhere shortly thereafter, with Graham doing so, just days after the extension.
4. Nick Saban's "I'm not going to be the Alabama coach" comment could be construed as a lie. These types of statements end up being total and complete lies.
A BLATENT LIAR: Rodriguez's statement, "I'm committed to West Virginia for a long, long time", came after a flirtation with Alabama in 2006, is the textbook example of how to do the "verbal splits."
It's just rumors, huh Coach Rod? You all are scum & I am so happy your scum, filth, low life money hungry, greedy selves are out of the State of West Virginia.
5. Your children will grow up fast and will see what a liar and traitor you are, despite the lies with which you all are currently filling the innocent you boy's brain.
He will make the final judgment. Mark my words, I bet your boy sides with the State of West Virginia.
My favorite saying: You can fool others, you can even fool yourself, but who's the fool in the long run. That's you WITCHRITA & RODTHEFRAUD.

We got it. And, we all know that both of the Rodriguez' have exemplified being totally self-centered and self-serving. Rita is by no means in any position to tell anyone how or what to feel. She merely needs to be held accountable for her own actions and own feelings. Telling me that I "should" be proud of a native son may have merit...but only if that native son has integrity and character will she get her wish. Neither of them have any native or not.
Otherwise, and as for this blog...please, if you are going to continue to write....get a proofreader. That was one tough "opinion" to read.

I'm continually amazed at how West Virginia fans have zero appreciation for the coach who brought their program to national prominence and made them into one of the top 3 winningest programs over the last 3 years. Does it suck to lose a talented coach? Sure, but WVU and their fans need to let it go and have a little more class. Besides, writing blatantly hypocritical articles really isn't going to help anybody.

M:
With all due respect, and your recognition of WVU success, like many outsiders, you fail to know that WV competed for two national championships prior to RR coming to WV (1988 and 1993). It may behoove many fans who have no history with WV athletics to understand that "winning" at West Virginia is not something new for Mountaineers in the big picture. WV is the winningest football program "not" to have a natioinal championship tucked under its belt but our fans and alums are by no means spoiled by recent success under the Rodriguez reign. That aside, outsiders are also guided by the bias and slanted writing of those in the national media who choose to stereotype all fans and alums as "not letting go" types when there is nothing farther from the truth in-house. We realize maybe more than anyone that no one person is bigger than the institution and its tradition. The disdain for Rodriguez lies in his belieiving otherwise and his forgetting that WV was alive and well before him and moves forward without him. He, like anyone, is certainly entitled to take a job anywhere he wants.....but, outside his recent winning at WV, his trail of mistrust and lack of integrity began well before he agreed to a new contract with Michigan...which, by the way, has a $4M buyout clause. Just settle up on the contract he broke at WV....and all is well.
We look forward to the future.

No - it sucks to have a family member in whose growth you invested dollars, time, and effort so blatantly and sociopathically lie, cheat, and steal in front of the entire community. It hurts, and it’s embarrassing. Rich is not a good coach; if he were, Pac Man and Henry wouldn't be stalking the general population, having learned better under his tutelage. Their lack of respect for others reflects his own.
It's not always about winning. Winning is good, but only if it reflects the efforts of folks with good values working together toward a common goal, not so if it is a pavlovian response by a pack of beaten dogs. He was disrespectful of his players in practice, on the sidelines, in interviews, and was shamelessly self promoting while prevaricating effusively to the entire community.
Despite its seven year long inevitability, the pain of betrayal by one's own will linger as a heartfelt loss just as strongly as our memories of November 14, 1970. Your dismissiveness of the emotions that sponsor this kind of outburst is unwarranted and displays a callous lack of empathy.

Here are two things that M from South Carolina fails to recognize. In West Virginia, we hate a liar and when we make commitments, we honor them. We can and will let "it" go in time. The classless one in this fiasco has been rodthefraud, not the fans of West Virginia. We certainly appreciate all he did for us, but we believe in loyalty in the Mountain State, and got none of it from this guy. Less than one year before he abandoned the Old Gold and Blue for the Maize and Blue, he said, "I'm very excited to stay at West Virginia and look forward to coaching here the rest of my career,' Rodriguez said. "A lot of things that influenced my decision was the outpouring of support from the fans in West Virginia and throughout the country. It had a tremendous influence on me and my family.' You see, we were in his hip pocket until he passed gas on us, and until he pays us what he owes us plus interest, the stink just won't go away.

Yeah...it has nothing to do with him leaving. That stinks and disingenuous, seeing how he signed a long-term deal months earlier, but that's life in business.
The problem is the $4million he agreed to IN WRITING months before leaving. It's right there to read if you want to.
We'd be done if he would just pay what he obligated HIMSELF in writing to pay.
If he does that, it's over for everyone. We're very happy with Bill Stewart and what he's doing. I can assure you that very few West Virginians would trade him for Rodriguez now that we see what type of man he is.

I think it's great how RR lets all our players who are going into the draft work out at Michigan to prepare them for the NFL. Thanks RR for all you have and continue to do for WV, and best of luck to you!

OH god! THIS AGAIN? Are we gonna get a play by play on the court dates or can we just wait for a final outcome? For this guy to be such a loser, you spend alot time obsessing over RR. I mean 3 in the morning... please tell me your kidding! Then you wonder why the rest of the nation calls you the jilted lover. Give it a rest and take a rest for your children.
I think there is something else going on with you. Michelle, your acting like your involved with this man and the way your attacking his wife...HMMMMMMM

Rita attacks Rita well enough on her own in her whining emotional tirades. She kinda reminds me of Tonya Harding. I wonder if she's considered amateur porn or boxing. Bill Stewart better watch his kneecaps. Its actually kinda fun seeing overpaid native trailer trash on the road, spreading the myth. Thats something to be proud of. Go Tonya! er... Rita! I think we oughtta send her a beer can handbag with some sears roeuck pages wadded up inside for those "I'm feelin' so attacked" moments. I'd burn a couch for Rita any day - just to see her hairspray go "POOF! SNAP! CRACKLE! POP!"

I'd say how completely devoid of class and maturity the WVU fans are, but they continue to prove it on their own. No need for me to point it out.
The $4M buyout is one thing, but continuing to harp on this guy for taking a better job? Seriously? Tell me any one of you wouldn't take a better job -- an ideal situation -- if it were offered to you.

As a WVU alum & fan, I am disgusted with RichRod's greed and behavior. I think WVU will get the best end of the deal IF AND WHEN the Fraud pays his $4 million buyout. Michigan bought themselves a mediocre coach - without Pat White as QB Michigan would not have even called. Pat White willed the Mountaineers to win many games DESPITE the poor play calling from the Fraud. Look at the Pitt game - what did we run - 5 plays???? What happened to getting Slaton out of the backfield, instead of up the stinking middle every play?? PAT WHITE is why the Fraud looked so good. I do believe he thought he had Terrelle Pryor in his pocket to carry Michigan ( Pryor gave Rich a dose of his own medicine, promising to commit to UM in the morning and then going to Ohio St. - he learned it from a master!).
So, just pay up Rich - you signed the contract - now do the right thing. But then again, given time a man of dishonor will prove himself (I plan on being at WV as long as they'll have me, he said in Nov.!). Well, we don't want your act anymore, so take your foul mouth to the Michigan sidelines.
HOW ABOUT THAT FIESTA BOWL???? PAT WHITE is the MAN!!!!
