Nick Rolovich suing Wazzu for being fired

There's plenty of drama in Pullman, Wash. right now. Earlier this week, it was announced that head coach Nick Rolovich had been fired for cause by Washington State University. Rolovich, who hasn't been vaccinated, had his request for an exemption denied.

Now, Rolovich is suing the university, claiming they're preventing him from following his Catholic faith. Rolovich is claiming that he didn't get the vaccine because he's Catholic.

Former WSU coach Nick Rolovich is planning to sue for ‘unlawful’ termination. Although Pope Francis has endorsed getting vaccinated, the former coach says he was targeted "merely for being devout in his Catholic faith," according attorney.https://t.co/AA8t4qMo9O pic.twitter.com/kzySCg8KkE

Per Rolovich's attorney, the former WSU head coach was escorted to his car by police after AD Pat Chun fired him. Now, Rolovich is ready to go after his former employer. Things could get ugly here.
