Paying the Price at Check Out Time

Here is something Rich Rodriguez can look forward to. Writing checks for large sums to his former employer, West Virginia University.

Michigan basketball coach John Beilein just sent this check for $290,000 to West Virginia for the first installment he owes the university for his $1.5 million contract buyout.

Rich Rod, of course, owes substantially more, according to West Virginia officials, who are suing the Michigan coach for a $4 million buyout in his contract.

Thanks to West By God Virginia for their help.
