New Pittsburgh coach arrested and jailed


Well the coaching picture is starting to clear up for Pittsburgh.  Yesterday newly hired coach Mike Haywood was arrested in South Bend on domestic violence charges.  Haywood apparently got in a custody dispute with a woman with whom Haywood has a child.  The assistant police chief has reported that the woman had marks on her arms, neck, and back.  Ironically Haywood who was tepid about making his Pitt debut in the bowl game might not even have the opportunity.  Haywood had been head coach at Miami(OH) the past two years and drastically improved a Redhawks team that went 1-11 in his first year (including a drubbing by Kentucky in his first game as head coach) to 9-4 this year and a birth in the Danica Patrick Bowl.  With the arrest it's looking more like Dave Wannstedt will get a last game as head coach.
