USC: Sark is full of shit

http://www.usctrojans.com/blog/2015/12/usc-response-to-sarkisian-lawsuit.html

No way, ya think?

The only way this could get any better is if by some miracle it ends up at trial. Then we could finally find out who ordered the cosmo.

    "the record will show that Mr. Sarkisian repeatedly denied to university officials that he had a problem with alcohol, never asked for time off to get help, and resisted university efforts to provide him with help. The university made clear in writing that further incidents would result in termination, as it did. We are profoundly disappointed in how Mr. Sarkisian has mischaracterized the facts and we intend to defend these claims vigorously."

    Maybe HH & parties will be asked to testify based on insights of infidelity and public patheticness.

    Every AD should stop by HH before hiring a loser coach.

    Haden could have himself a lot of face by reaching out to the HH family.

    Hail Derek & crew!

    I'm shocked USC publicly responded in the first place and second, that they actually said "most" of Sark's allegations are untrue implying there is some truth to it. Jury to decide which part I guess.

    That's the main flow with Sarks lawsuit. He makes it sound like he was a known medical alcoholic and everybody knew about his "disability" for years and accepted him this way.
    And then a few pages later it says, sometimes after the UW loss October 2015, "this is when for the first he realized what he had denied for a long time, that he had a booze problem".
    Yeah, you're full of shit.

    It's disabling, but it's not a disability. Obese people have been disabled but they're not a special class deserving of special treatment for something they did to themselves.

    Neither are alcoholics.

    It is factually true that Bleacher Report gave him an A+ grade for the ASU game.
    No. It's not a fact; it's an opinion, which is why inclusion in the lawsuit is so absurd. The only way that the Bleacher report writer's opinion that Sark deserved an A+ grade for the ASU game would be admissible at trial is if Sark's lawyers were able to first qualify him as an expert. This seems unlikely. If watching a lot of college football is sufficient to qualify the writer as an expert competent to render an opinion at trial, then all of us on this board and half the male population of America would be similarly qualified. Accordingly, even if the witness were qualified as an expert, under this standard USC would be able to bring in their own "experts" to refute the testimony. Sark will never gain any traction with this. Bullshit, time-wasting lawyering.

    It is a fact that some random basement dweller held that opinion.

    Probably admissible not for it's truth or as a fact, but for it's impact on Sark or Haden's state of mind. Whether it's true isn't the issue. Whether it impacted their states of mind is. That's relevant, and it probably jumps the hearsay fence since it's not offered for it's truth, but for it's impact on their minds. Plus, it's touchy-feely Cali, where the courts are as liberal as their politicians. I agree it's ridiculous, but they could worm it into court somehow. That's why this turd case will settle out of court for 2 to 5 mil.

    nice rant. Butt, the only thing that matters now is what will PeoplesInsurance look like and what will it limit in terms of care

    Man this latest stunt by Sark makes my blood boil.

    Just because you have a disability or a disease doesn't give you an excuse to not do your job! My understanding of the ADA is it gives you (as I believe it should) protection to take time off to get treatment and/or ask for reasonable accommodation. You can still be fired if you aren't meeting the standards of the position. Sark is taking advantage of legislation that is meant to help people that are genuinely trying to get their lives back on track.

    I hope the USC lawyers rake him through the coals.

    I want Sark to win just so USC is proven wrong.
