The latest domino has fallen in the Rutgers scandal. Assistant coach Jimmy Martelli has resigned after it was revealed he was also involved in the abuse of players.

The fallout from the Mike Rice scandal at Rutgers is only starting to be felt. On Wednesday, assistant coach Jimmy Martelli resigned, just one day after Rice was fired for physical and verbal abuse of his players during practice.

In a 40-minute long video provided to ESPN, it was revealed that Martelli was also involved in the abuse of players. He was shown shoving an unidentified player in a segment of the video that was not aired on television. Rutgers athletic director Tom Pernetti addressed Martelli's resignation in a brief statement:

"Jimmy was spoken to about the matter. We dealt with that. Certainly the tape focused on Mike, but it brought some other things to light that we dealt with at the same time that we dealt with Mike."

Martelli was part of Rice's coaching staff at Robert Morris for three seasons before following his boss to Rutgers after the 2010 season.

Why Does a Rhino Horn Cost $300000? Because Vietnam Thinks It Cures ... - The Atlantic

A rhino-head heist spree is sweeping the world and destroying rhino populations, mostly because of some ridiculous myths Reuters It was in most respects a typical heist that happened in Dublin last month. Masked men, roughed-up security guards, $650,000 in stolen booty. But this wasn't art or jewelry that was stolen. The contraband, instead, was�four rhinoceros heads. Or, more specifically, their horns. And this wasn't the first time. A�rhino-head heist spree swept Europe in 2011, as thieves raided museums and auctions houses in seven countries, prompting 30�investigations by Europol, 20 of which are ongoing. Similar heists have also been on the rise in Africa, as well as in the odd American backwater town. Meanwhile, an online business thrives as well--including one dealer on Facebook who only accepts bitcoin. What is driving this "highly organized" crime ring? If you guessed "China," you were wrong. The answer is Vietnam. The country's appeti

Donald Bowers / Getty Images for Quill.com Dunder Mifflin paper is now an actual product you can buy through Quill.com, a subsidiary of Staples. It sounds like the plot of an unaired episode of The Office'�Staples, the archnemesis of regional paper company Dunder Mifflin, licenses the smaller business's name and starts selling paper and other office products under its banner. You can easily envision Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute flying to the office supply giant's headquarters to win their company's name and honor back. Maybe there'd be a gift basket bribe involved. Thanks to some clever branding, fiction has become reality. Though Jim, Dwight, and the rest of the quirky characters on NBC's long-running sitcom will have their final cringeworthy moments together tonight in the show's series finale, Dunder Mifflin's paper will fill the copy machines and supply closets of real offices around the country for years to come.
