He lost 250k on the game. He took a lot of heat and then apologized. In this environment you don't say things like that. Just google it.

Yeah, Portnoy is a bad guy.
Yes he gins up a lot of money for good causes.
Yes people like his pizza reviews
But he’s a really sh!tty person who has frequently led his drooling hordes to bully and harass a lot of sports industry women.
Wow, he was ravaged by a really bad case of beaver fever. Sad.

Obviously he's not emotionally mature enough to gamble on sports. We're finding that out about a lot of people. Who coulda know'd?

It does take two to tango, but I'm a little uneasy about her being plastered all over the internet. The power imbalance by itself is enough question her role in the entire thing at this point.
I highly doubt that this is the first time Moore has engaged in questionable behavior with staff.

Based on his name alone, he likely has his own skeletons in the closet.

This was apparently the worst kept secret within Michigan.
Michigan has known they were going to fire him and kept it quiet till after signing day.
That’s disgusting.
This plus the other stuff with sign stealing. What a disgrace U of M has become.
Boooooooooooo

Biff gave up his lucrative hedge fund management company to former players because he wanted to coach and prioritize his mentorship to young men. He poured a lot of his own money into a private high school in one of the worst parts of Baltimore. ESPN did an article on him a few years back. He may not have been a great coach at Charlotte, but he's a good guy who put his money back into the community.
Highly unethical if they didn’t act immediately once they had the evidence to do so. Which some media members are speculating whether they played a wait and see with this.

UM claims to have found "credible evidence" only about 24 hours before they fired him.
If what you say is true, it tells me they may have known but were waiting to find enough "for cause" evidence (i.e., maybe someone finally agreeing to go on record?) to fire him.

Per the Pittsfield (MI) Police: Former Michigan coach Sherrone... - ESPN
Read the breaking news story from the ESPN contributor Pete Thamel
Yeah idk, it would also be messed up if these rumors were being spread and an open secret that this happened and the going on record only happened the last few days given the timeline.

Bill worked in a pickle factory. He had been employed there for a number of years when he came home one day to confess to his wife that he had a terrible compulsion. He had an urge to stick his [male anatomy] in the pickle slicer. His wife suggested that he should see a therapist to talk about it, but Bill indicated that he'd be too embarrassed. He vowed to overcome the compulsion on his own.
One day a few weeks later Bill came home absolutely ashen. His wife could see at once that something was seriously wrong. "What's wrong, Bill?" she asked.
"Do you remember that I told you how I had this tremendous urge to put my [male anatomy] in the pickle slicer?"
"Oh, Bill, you didn't."
"Yes, I did.""My God, Bill, what happened?"
"I got fired.""No, Bill. I mean, what happened with the pickle slicer?"
"Oh... she got fired too."

Yeah...things like this are brutal. I've been involved in investigations like this at companies where we're 99.9999% sure something fireable occurred. Its easy when its possibly criminal - you hand it off to legal authorities and run like hell away from the situation...putting someone on paid administrative leave while a situation is investigated is usually the play. So I'm reasonably confident nothing criminal happened until he crashed out after getting fired. And it sucks because even when you fire someone, the process of getting the evidence always takes so long that people say "why did you let it go on so long!!!! You knew about this for (weeks/months)"! As a company/organization, you can't win.
Don't discount the possibility they were investigating this for months, had everything they needed just after the OSU loss, and decided to wait two weeks so they'd get past signing day. They knew they were going to get crushed for "waiting so long" anyway - may as well get crushed for good reason and fire him at a less inconvenient time.
