Doug Gottlieb just got hammered by Adam Schefter on social media.
On Monday night, Gottlieb ripped a report from Schefter that claimed Sacramento State was in talks to hire Michael Vick as its head football coach and had raised $50 million in NIL money as it attempts to move into the FBS. Schefter fired back mercilessly.
Here's the original report from Schefter:
Sacramento State is in discussions to hire former Pro-Bowl QB Mike Vick as its new head coach, per sources. Sacramento State plans to move up to FBS, is building a new stadium and has over $50 million in NIL. Sacramento State would build an experienced coaching staff around Vick…

Gottlieb's reaction is below.
Jeezus Shefty, edit what agents tell you… 0.0% chance Sac State has $50m in NIL. https://t.co/8eoU0wwKPO

Schefter responded at first by refuting Gottlieb's post, but then the ESPN NFL insider went for the jugular.
And Jeezus, Doug. A seven-game losing steak and last place in the Horizon League? Less time on social media and more time in the gym. pic.twitter.com/r58Fpwfvb8

Ouch. That is an absolute mauling from Schefter.
Gottlieb is in his first season as the head coach at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay and things haven't gone well. The Phoenix are 2-10, 0-3 in the Horizon League, and as Schefter pointed out, have lost seven in a row.
Despite his coaching duties, Gottlieb has continued to host his daily radio Fox Sports radio show.
