All Things SkunkBear

Correct, but that's just it: are they self aware enough to realize this by now? Harbaugh, Juwan Howard, now Sherrone Moore. It would seem that this is going beyond athletics.

I have a full time job, wife and three kids. I don't know how I'd actually have time to have an affair, let alone as a football coach at Michigan, who work crazy hours and are on the road recruiting, making appearances, etc. It takes a special kind of morality to have a double life. Burner accounts and all that. It boggles my mind, honestly.

There’s a kernel of truth to the saying that men are only as honest as their options. I’m not busting your balls, jigga - I’m sure you’re a catch. But I somehow doubt you have the salary or status of Michigan’s football coach. And if you did, you strike me as someone with better judgment.

Be that as it may, high status, wealthy men are magnets for morally loose women (shocking, I know). It's getting thrown at him far more than you and I, so it doesn’t surprise me at all that someone in his position would cheat. What is surprising is that he’d be dumb enough to bang someone who works directly for him, rather than a random person on campus who would be more than willing, with far less risk.

Weird trivia question, but who was the last head football coach of a P4 program to do jail time?
I honestly have no idea.

Started on an incredibly weird footing where he started his head coaching career at UM without a signed contract for awhile.
Still have no idea how that happens, and ends in thankfully not tragic but just very sad terms.

Incredibly interested to see how Michigan gets themselves out of this mess, and who takes that job.
Who knows how much longer Freeman has in South Bend, but it's no secret he has a easier chance of continued success if Michigan is in a weaker position on the field / coaching front and how that helps us for blue chip recruiting purposes, so if they want to have a decade of 9-3 to 7-5 seasons I'm here for it!

The guy is a scumbag

 

[Bishop2b5]

Oh man! You go from making $6M per year, a nice job, being a king on campus, and having a nice family, to jail, possible prison, no job, virtually no future job prospects of significance, utterly destroying your reputation, and destroying your family, all over a side piece. What a maroon.

A butter knife??? Was he gonna make some toast or something? The fuck

I don’t think he’s a very bright person. All the more baffling that he finagled his way into that job…. 🤦🏻‍♂️

 

[zelezo vlk]

Just sounds like he had a snap and felt like he had no control leading to the stand off with the knife/scissors. Honestly this is just a terrible situation all around and as much as I hate Michigan, I cannot relish in any schadenfreude here.

Damn that's a real bad day.

He should probably consider the possibility that all of this happened for a reason, change his life and recommit himself to his family.

If Chris Rock taught us anything in the late 90s it was this. And that nobody was ever trying to blow Orrin Hatch.

Regardless of his money and status, he's got 24 hours in a day the same as you and I do. With his profile and visibility, he was bound to get caught and it looks like the day has come. I'm sure plenty of people knew about it and went about their business. I suppose he had more to lose than someone like me, but there are a lot of things you can't replace. He's lost quite a few.

Our family has lost friendships due to marriages that have ended due to adultery. I have honestly been naive to how frequent it is among people in our circles and community than I could have realized.

Proximity plays a huge factor in infidelity so it doesn't surprised me that a man who works crazy hours, like all football coaches do, ended up choosing someone 1) close by and 2) he's in regular contact with as his affair partner. It does beggar belief that there was no circumstantial evidence available to contradict the principals testimony in the 2 investigations into what apparently was going on for multiple years. For the same reasons.

I just can't imagine being that horny all the time. Sending texts during halftime? Crazy.

He needed it, for how toast he his

At least you're man enough to admit to being a Low T limp dick moderator.

 

[Bishop2b5]

Reason #638 why you don't cheat under any circumstances. Just say no to the side piece. It's the most dangerous and worthless thing on the planet. If you can't keep the most sacred you ever make in your life, why should anyone expect you to keep your word about anything else? Have some flippin' character. Nobody loses their wife, their kids, their reputation, and their dignity, and then says, "Yeah, it was worth it." Don't cheat.

Wait a second. Hold up there, cowboy. Y'all can't keep busting on my friend Irish#1 like that all the time. I'm gonna have to step up and defend him eventually. Not yet of course, this stuff is funny... but eventually.

Completely agree. When my wife and I were first getting serious we had a discussion centered around this (her dad was unfaithful to her mom when she was a kid) and I’ll never forget her telling me, “If you’re ever in a position where you feel like you’d rather be with someone else, just end things with me. The pain is a lot less than having to endure unfaithfulness AND an ensuing breakup.”

Not that I’ve ever been close, but coming from a family where my parents were married for over 40 years, that has always stuck with me.

 

[SeekNDestroy]

100%. That's the biggest thing holding society back. Complete lack of self awareness and total apathy for corruption. Shit Show at the Fuck Factory.

Absolutely no idea who looks at this job and says "ok" but they'll find someone.

It's a total mess.

A really good flick…if you’re into scat.

 

[Sea Turtle]

If he was using university funds to set up meetings with woman across multiple states, would that trigger an FBI investigation?

A maroon indeed. Kinda went full Burgundy there.

Sounds like it might be Dellingham from ASU. Bunch of current players are following him, and his odds are taken off fanduel.

The fucking audacity of YOU saying this. Ahaha, the ironic, hypocrisy is a sight.

Uhhh yeah

I think you believe very little of what you said there.

Think real hard.

Think really, really hard about what you actually think about people who cheat on their significant others. You saying you care this much about infidelity doesn't align with your actions.

I have faith you can get there.

Yep. I hate Michigan like all of us but this is just incredibly sad all around.

And no of course he’s not going to prison. He’ll plea out and hopefully get the help he needs.

And then I hope Michigan makes a terrible hire that sets their program back for at least five years. Ideally a decade.

Well, given that you don't know me in real life, and I've never cheated on my wife, it sounds like you're just trying to be an ass. I don't remember ever interacting with you on IE, but something has annoyed you. This seems a weird approach by you, but you do you.

Don’t know much about him or his players. Anyone with a good take?

We've had many interactions. Don't worry, I pay for being an elephant.

It's not for this forum, but I say again, what you said in here, about infidelity and the people who commit it, with such moral clarity... ironic and hollow give other choices you've made and thoughts you've expressed.
