It's not like he's the first. This isn't about recruiting violations or anything, it's his personal life, so the "investigation" and putting him on leave rubs me the wrong way. I know the school has a right considering the usual contract verbiage about the upholding the reputation of the school and such, but coaches have gotten buy with a lot worse in their personal lives (Jerry Sandusky comes immediately to mind).
