Default Michael Heywood, former Pitt coach

It was in the news here because he's from Houston and actually went to the same high school I went to.

First there was this:

Pittsburgh athletic director Steve Pederson praised Haywood's character when he was hired last month, calling his values "in line with the values of this great university."

"His history at outstanding programs with outstanding coaches gave him a rare combination of experiences and background," Pederson said at the time. "Most importantly, Michael is a man of character and integrity and will be an inspirational leader for our football team."

Then this:

"After careful consideration of recent events, the University of Pittsburgh has dismissed Michael Haywood as its head football coach, effective immediately. He was advised of that action this afternoon," Pittsburgh chancellor Mark A. Nordenberg said in statement.
