— Former West Virginia football coach Rich Rodriguez must reveal whether anyone else has agreed to pay the $4 million buyout that WVU’s lawyers are trying to recover.
That’s the ruling from Monongalia (mon uhn GALE yuh) Circuit Court Judge Robert Stone, who held a hearing on potential evidence Monday.
Rodriguez has 15 days to submit the letters of intent he had with the University of Michigan before becoming its coach in December. He also must reveal whether anyone has agreed to pay off WVU for him.
Stone also says Rodriguez must turn over any employment and endorsement contracts he’s signed since 2000.
Those go to WVU’s argument that the coach knew what he was doing when he signed a contract with the damages clause.
