Interesting that this allegedly happened in September, but just coming out now.

Dana might not have survived the year anyways, but now he may not survive the weekend. Sucks, because Ive always liked him as a person. Just doesnt win enough with the talent that he has. Bears are gonna have a coaching search soon.

Feels like there's a reason this came out right now. He's done.

I guess my question for Bear fans is how many more hires does Moats get to make? When your football and MBB hires fail over and over and over there comes a point where you don't get to make those hires anymore.

Good news for Dana is that New Mexico State is certainly going to be open and that has become the ultimate image rehab job.

Dana Ford being a loser is the least surprising thing that I have ever heard.

Wasn’t Ford and Marshall who nearly came to blows in the Redbird Arena tunnel at the 2013 WSU/ISU game?

If Ford ends up terminated from this, that would mean both of them were sacked within 10 years of that incident for off-court incidents.

As an Aces fan, this is a way too familiar flashback. It is amazing that this crap just keeps continuing. Guys throwing careers and half-million dollar salaries away to behave in ways none of us would ever think about.

Ford’s wife is an awesome person who does tons of charity work. They have 5 kids - 1 of whom they lost at birth a few years ago.

Wasn't Marshall technically canned for on the court stuff after Shaq Morris did a tell-all confirming how big of an Ass GGG was? And yes, Dan, Dana and the rest of the staff ALLEDGELY came to blows with the Wichita Staff in the bowels of RBA. That 4 or 5 year Rivalry between the two had some great and wild moments. Dan even made sure to say on his last interview, that he and Marshall hated each other.

It is going to be interesting to see how this plays out.

He may not last the weekend now that the story is public. It may offer an opportunity for the two sides to mutually part ways in a few weeks once the season ends. Or it could be absolutely nothing. After all, the university has known about this since September and no charges have been brought. I have no idea what to expect.

How does this happen just a couple years removed from the McCarty stuff at Evansville?

If true, Dana Ford deserves everything about to come his way.
