"Roody, reporting live from the scene!"

No big surprise on the firing though. Too much drama.

Happy New Year Trent!

You had to see this coming. Especially with the history he had with the Athletic Director and the fact that he was due for an $800,000 bonus if he was still on the job after Dec. 31st.

The injunction was to let him coach the game.
