is there a good reason to destroy those type files?

Good? no. I'm guessing the motivation was spite, or he needed to hide something.

Either way, this is going to bite him in the rear big time. WVU already filed suit to collect the $4mil buyout from him. Destroying evidence could be a whole new cause of action, or at least raise a presumption of misconduct, which could mean he breached the contract.

Also, destroying state files could bring criminal charges. Do those motorola headsets work from jail?

His lawyers are already with the reply that the records he destroyed were his own hand written thoughts, feelings, and analysis of the players he had while he was head coach at WV. If in fact he admits to destroying any files at all.

I don't see them getting very far with that one. Probably doesn't matter what his subjective intent was. If he was keeping notes as part of his official duties as an employee/contractor of the university, those became state files.

Unless by personal notes he worte things like "#41 has a nice behind." "oooh, look at those pecks." "grrrr, i'd like to spread his option." yikes!

The media is already reporting what type of notes/files they were though.

That athletic department is sad shape anyway. The soccer coach got fired my son's freshman year for major athletic violations. It took him trying to sign a kid who had played professionally in Scotland for them to do anything. Even though the players all talked about how he had been telling players to lie on their practice time sheets, paying some of the foreign kids out of his own pocket and using school funds for World Cup tickets.

Who knows what they let the football coach get away with.

That whole thing made me laugh. You know if this kind of stuff goes on in soccer it certainly going on in football and basketball.

in the Michigan State V OSU game, some kid held up a piece of notebook paper with "Rich Rod shredded my sign" :)
