Unless, of course, his contract had a clause that allowed it.

There are rumors this was a known issue at Washington, so it may very well be a clause in the contract.

Sure you can. You just can't fire them because they entered treatment.

If you go on a drunken bender and kill someone, they can fire you for killing someone whether you go into rehab for your alcoholism or not.

Spurrier retiring at the end of the year.

I've read four different stories now and none of them seem to know if it means he's just announcing retirement tomorrow or if tomorrow is actually his last day.

What a strange two days for college football.

If Frank Beamer joins Steve Spurrier in retirement this offseason, Brian Kelly would take over as the active FBS coach with the most wins.

He's done at the eastern USC.

Steve Spurrier said Tuesday he made the decision to resign as South Carolina's head coach because the team was heading in the wrong direction.

He said at a news conference: "We've slipped. It's my fault. I'm the head coach."

Spurrier said he started really thinking about resigning Sunday morning, spoke to South Carolina athletics director Ray Tanner that afternoon and told his team on Monday night that he was stepping down, effective immediately.

Holy smokes, Stanford has been on a mission since the Northwestern loss. They keep playing like this, I don't see them losing until maybe a Pac 12 title game. Even then I think they will be favored.

If there's a schedule to do it with, it's this one. UW at home, then WSU and Colorado on the road, then Oregon, Cal, and ND at home. The tougher games at home, the more winnable ones on the road.

Not sure exactly what happened at Northwestern with the way the team has been playing since. Maybe it was the first game jitters, maybe it was the 9am start time, and a lot of it is that Northwestern is a decent team this year, but it's been so much night and day since. Maybe the loss is actually a good thing, as now the team knows they don't have any leeway going forward.
 
Re: College Football 2015-16: The Big Ten Rises

The Hawkeyes just might be pretty **** good. Next man in has been there mantra, and without a pretty big group of contributors, they annihilated Northwestern on the road. 2 Top 20 road wins now this year! 7-0! Go Hawks!

ESPN did a little bit on the Broken Chair Trophy for the MN-NEB game. Awesomeness.
