I'm sure Haden and the SC PR folks are working OT today on this.  At the very least, I think they need to suspend him and require him to go to rehab.  Which means he probably won't be coaching the team when we play the Toejams next month. ;)

Rehab?  Let's not get carried away.  You've never in your life been drunker than perhaps you should have been?

Disagree. He is going to have to go to rehab because recruits (and their parents) will be told by other schools that he is an alcoholic. The biggest issue is the timing since U$€ would probably prefer that he do that during the off-season.

My first reaction was similar to Passion's...one incident, by itself, does not warrant rehab.  But if more and more incidents come to light, and this news about alcohol being in the locker room after games is not a great sign for VSC, then maybe something more is in order.  Maybe not rehab, but a gamer or two suspension.  They suspended the basketball coach a while back for an incident that seems less egregious than this.

Side Note: can you imagine the angst for Sarkisian when VSC loses to Stanford.  Imagine him sitting in the locker room, bottle of booze in hand. *hic* "They all SUCK! Especially the nerdy, brainiac, choir boys with the teetotaling head coach! How can we lose to them?!" *hic*
