Last week, Steve Sarkisian was fired as USC's head football coach and suffered his deepest embarrassment in public. Now for the hard part, the part done in private.
The noise of the scandal at USC may have softened and the spotlight on Sarkisian dimmed, but what about the man now fighting his sickness? How do we gain perspective on what Sarkisian might be going through as he battles a drinking problem and reportedly enters rehab?
We do just what he's doing, lean on the experience of those who have been through it and those who are experts in treating it.
