Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 4782671, member: 173"] You have to take the state laws into account; a lot of states have marital discrimination laws where treating a married person differently than a single person would potentially lead to a lawsuit. Rhode Island apparently has no such laws, AND they are one of a few states where infidelity is a crime (misdemeanor). So he’s in one of the worst states with just the facts you listed. In Wisconsin, it would still be incredibly hard to fire for the affair with an 18 year old. It would be much more likely the two sides would negotiate a buyout and very little hard info would come out - that would save the university some money and allow the coach to salvage some of his reputation since everything that comes out will be almost like rumor. While the university appears to have broader options in Rhode Island, one of the reasons we may not be hearing anything is they are actively working on a buyout. [/QUOTE]
