Wait, Beaver doubled down by refusing to release assistants? Really? One might surmise that Beaver wanted to keep people close who might have a reason to blow up the dam.
If there is one single aggravating factor that is the reason the NCAA has gone full court press on OM, the unwillingness in the beginning of letting assistants go is probably their Waterloo.
But your point is not lost Shmuley. Friends close and enemies closer and all.
I dont get the lack of pragmatism here though. Is there a scenario that keeping Freeze helps? Good Lord above. Why havent they just paid him to go away and thanked him for the service? There is no chance they get anything mitigated as long as he's there. If it were MSU and the coach was innocent I'd still be for sending him off.
Yea, I know they are a delusional fanbase and all, but certainly there must be some level headed person that is advising them to cut their losses before this hearing becomes the Nuremberg trials.
Shmuley, I know you are well versed in this. What could they possibly be gaining by staying with this staff?
