i haven't been keeping up with all the nitty-gritty of this story, but the guy makes it sound like WVU was going to let RR go before he left. otherwise what divorce is he talking about?

On the Lighter Side - from The Bleacher Report
Rich Rodriguez's Wife to Guide Wolverine Spirit Team ...
Quote:
In a press conference hastily convened this afternoon, University of Michigan president Mary Sue Coleman announced the hiring of Rita Rodriguez as the Wolverine's new Head Cheerleading Coach.
Rodriguez, accompanied by her husband (newly hired head football coach Rich Rodriguez) and sporting her new "All Access Pass" declined to address the media directly allowing her agent, Mike Brown, to speak on her behalf.
....
It is widely expected that Rodriguez will install her infamous "Spreadless Defense" at the University of Michigan. The storied defense is built around the Nickel Press philosophy, but to accomplish this new strategy changes in personnel and recruiting will be necessary.
All existing staff members have been advised to "look for opportunities" and all existing female squad members have been dismissed, forfeiting their scholarships.
"We have to have size and strength," said Brown. "We need girls who can secure that nickel between their knees until the football coach gets home," he added. "It's a new day in Michigan Cheering."
Brown also indicated that high school sensation Torella Pryorski?from somewhere in Pennsylvania?has spoken with Mrs. Rita and could serve as the foundation of the new squad. The 4'5", 28-pound Pryorski is said to be considering Ohio State but is also entertaining an offer for an immediate opening at any offensive line position for the Oklahoma Sooners.
...
Brown said he has entered into an agreement with a manufacturer for a significant discount on truckloads of peroxide.
"We want these girls to emulate their mentor," Brown said. In additon, "All cheerleaders will be required to live in a trailor park 17 miles outside of Ann Arbor."
Mrs. Rita will frequently check in on her girls when her husband?s whereabouts are unknown.
While details of the contract with Mrs. Rita will be made available next week, Mike Brown indicated that a buyout clause would not be an obstacle to her signing.
"If Mrs. Rita ever decides to leave the University of Michigan for any, and I mean any, reason the University will be required to pay her $4 million, and me just $2 million. It looks like we're gonna be here for?awhile."
