    Ok, so the intent of this thread is to discuss what, if any, expectations we have, and why, that apply to University/College football coaches.

    The assertion is that Urban was aware of potential illegal behavior by one of his asst coaches. Urban is also being accused of destruction of evidence, vis a vis, alleged text messages sent to him or his wife several years ago that "informed" him of the illegal activity of his employee.

    The real question is: Is Urban responsible for taking action to fire an employee who hasn't been afforded due process? Next, is Urban responsible for listening to innuendo and is that sufficient to substantiate a termination action.

    These are hard questions. In a world of zero tolerance these days, does even the assertion of his awareness of these potential activities then require the university to discipline him, or possibly also terminate him?

    Is this just a bridge too far?
