As for the asst. coach, why are we piling on him? He's doing what any lawyer does, representing his client. He shouldn't be disinterested. If I retained a lawyer and found him to be disinterested, I would find a new one. If I'm going to court, I want somebody who truly is on my side.

That's not to say I think the coaching staff has any integrity at all. But I think piling on about his role as a lawyer is baseless.
BITS,
While I don't condone "piling" on...I don't think this guy should represent Mayo in this situation. He clearly has a conflict of interest as the outcome of the case directly affects him, with that in mind he can't present clearly all the options and advise which may be the best option.
