Ex-USC Coach Steve Sarkisian Reaches Divorce Settlement

TMZ reports Steve Sarkisian and his ex-wife, Stephanie, reached a divorce settlement that keeps her from getting any money he receives from his lawsuit against USC for wrongful termination. She must be getting a huge settlement because she agreed to no spousal or child support.

      • They got all he had and her attorney knows full well USC isn’t paying that loser another dime

        • Divorces are tough. My oldest brother is going through his second and it’s been ugly so far. Hope Sark and his wife can find a way to make it as easy as possible from here on. It’s all about the kids now.

          • Can’t blame the lawyers much of the time. I used to urge my clients to settle as much as possible before giving it to the lawyers. I literally begged clients to co-op and be generous to avoid fees, uncertainty and mental strife. But some just can’t walk away graciously.

            I once had a client who refused to even look at her ex when they were in the same room. She would just point her chair towards the window looking out. So much pain. Her dreams had just been wiped out and he had left her for a younger woman. She recovered well when all was said and done.

            There was never any need that I saw to drive up fees. Most of the clients did that knowingly all on their own, unable to see the forest from the trees and always suspicious they were getting shafted, especially when a self-owned business was involved.

            You’ve gotta be cold spaghetti inside to be a divorce attorney, like a criminal lawyer who handles murder cases. They’re always guilty, but you have to be totally detached from the monster within.

          • That’s a good stance from you as a lawyer. It’s more the tug of war between the parents. Trying to keep it civil seems like an up hill battle at least that’s the way my ex-sister in law has made things. Trying to brain wash the children. Trying to take them out of sports because she knows it’s a strong form of bonding for my brother and my nephews. I could go on and on. I imagine being the lawyer and being in the middle can be extremely stressful on you and your legal team. You have to due your job and it’s gotta be tough.

          • I only did divorces when with a larger firm and forced to as a younger lawyer. You definitely need to learn to cut your losses as a client because some things just won’t seem fair. And some of the issues simply can’t be addressed effectively by lawyers when a destructive party is involved, such as the brainwash issue. The best thing that can happen is for the parties to meet new people and want to move on with hope for happiness again. Until then, it’s just a battleground.

            I got a divorce long ago, hired a lawyer and convinced my ex to let him represent both of us. So basically he just gave advice and drew up our settlement. Worked like a charm and saved us a lot of money and time.

          • Sent you a recruiting question,pure Football .was deleted by moderator.USC Brand is at its highest point in years.Who do you see us landing.? Come Feb.

          • I can tell you this.
            This is up to date.
            -#1 DT Marvin Wilson scheduled and OV for Jan.
            -5-Star Alabama commit OT Alex Leatherwood also scheduled one.
            -#1 Player overall (per 247) and #1 OT
            Foster Sarell scheduled his OV

            Those are big time names who are feeling the SC high right now. This may be bittersweet but I think Najee Harris (Also Visiting in January) could sign with SC but that would mean Stephen Carr goes elsewhere. And I think we could flip DE DJ Johnson from Miami by signing day. He’ll be here this week for the ND game and this will be his second game in three weeks after seeing SC beat UW in Seattle. And one to watch…..Wyatt Davis is back into the picture for SC. Still big with the Buckeyes but he will visit he said. You never know. I also think we’ll see at least 3 decommits in the next month or so. A lot going on. Kendall Sheffield could slide in after Adoree leaves and he just visited. Before I forget Darnay Holes just scheduled his Official Visit for the big weekend in January. Things are looking good for USC and recruiting

          • Thank you.Yes!! In my deleted post mentioned the Najee/Carr situation.Which one would you prefer? 2/3 commitments asked to look around.All looks good.

          • I heard Daniel Green may look around because there are concerns about his Academics.
            I like Carr and Harris. That’s a tough one. I’ve heard that Carr is the most complete back and I’ve heard the same about Harris. But since Carr has taken other OV’S I think SC has to be smart and do their due diligence by going after Harris also. If had to choose I would probably go with Harris since he gets the edge by the recruiting services, but I like the fact that Carr is from the area. I think it’s a win-win to land one of them. From what I hear Chris Hawkins father says there’s absolutely no possibility that USC will land both. He’s the Coach of Stephen Carr’s 7on7 team. We need one of them for sure. They are both very talented kids.

          • Carr summer before last was trying to recruit Harris.
            The Staff has stayed quite persistent with a number of guys.Now with our turn around recruits are calling us.

          • They sure are. Bubba Bolden who was commited to us earlier in the season now will officially visit in December or January. His mother called up the staff and they are reconnecting again. I personally think Austin Jackson gives the staff a silent verbal this weekend and will pull the SC hat at the Army Game.

          • Sears was first to Call via his coach.Nice!!
            Curious,have you heard anything about Fink on scout team.? Haven’t expected alot from him.Expecting Sears to try red shirt.So Fink would back up Sam.

          • Haven’t heard much of anything from him. He did get his front tooth or teeth knocked out or cracked by Connor Murphy during the Washington game…..Accidentally. They were celebrating and Murphys helmet popped Fink in the mouth. We need to bring him along and develop him. He’s got big potential. His arm strength is wait and see but his mobility and awareness is dangerous.

          • Both have said they will take all their visits..with Davis leaving and Rojo a junior…One of the two will cease the opportunity…

          • Her and the kids are doing quite well … living at a nice place in Newport Beach and she is dating a self made drug free responsible grown up
            Lovin life unlike the ex F up

        • Calif is a community property state. Nobody gets shafted unless their attorney is a dolt or they don’t have a prenup.

          I’m sure Sark did fine. Besides, getting out of a bad marriage is worth every penny.

          • Bet Mrs. Suck agrees … being married to that drug addicted phony psycho loser must have been a real treat especially since she stood with him when he was failing cell phone salesman
            What a puke

      • Sark was sleeping around on his ex much of the time they were in Seattle. He was definitely a player, and may have learned from the best – Carroll.

          • Could u imagine the biggies fat boy was pulling lol … they have even gotten bigger since he lost all his $$$ .. or maybe Kiffy is comforting him now since his old lady threw him out too lol … maybe Yogi Roth every other weekend
            Pathetic punks really

        • So true, Jack, because I know for a FACT, that there’s a little bit of truth to the both of them…lmao …Seriously

  1. what kind of person enjoys talking about that kind of thing on a sports blog? You are a strange man Blogger.

  2. She must be related to the Kardashians, money grubbing person who takes him to the cleaners with no sympathy in her soul.

    • Good for her … that POS has gotten away with enough of his con act
      Watching that loser fall into the gutter is awesome !

  3. Some little man (LOL) is talking **** on this blog but then he goes and flags comments some they can be removed. What a little pink vag*na.

      • My bad I was thinking of Mentone. Menifee is near Lake Elsinore. My buddy’s dad lives in Canyon Lake. Nice area.

        • I live across directly from Canyon Lake, a community called Canyon Hills. I grew up in South El Monte. My nephew attended and played football for the Trojans of Yucca Valley around 2008.

          • Cool. Yucca Valley is one of my rivals from Banning high school class of 2000. DeAnza League Banning, Beaumont, Yucca Valley, Temecula Chaparral (then), Lake Arrowhead Rim of the World, Riverside Notre Dame. Baseball and Basketball. Those were the days.

          • I attended Mt View H.S. in El Monte, class of ’83. We were the Vikings. Our football teams were terrible.

          • We are the Broncos. Always good to interact with a Trojan from down this way. It seems most of the guys here are from the LA/OC area. Very cool!

          • Ha. Arroyo here, ’77. We used to call Mt. View The Duck Farm or the Fingernail Polish Factory, depending on which way the wind was blowing.

          • We were known as the ducks, because of the duck farm. Our cheer for Arroyo was, “Beat Arroyo, knock ’em on their aztec.” Have a good Thanksgiving.

          • Yeah, the Knights. I remember you got our basketball coach as your principal. Pretty sure he’s the superintendent now.

  4. Haden was a fool to hire him but at least when he heard Sark crying “I’m sick!” he made and said what we all thought when he sacked him.

  5. If he feels like his future is bright, then give her what she wants now, and get her out of the way of future earnings. There’s one problem though, Mrs. Sarkisian probably had sharp lawyers, because there was millions of dollars involved, so I’m assuming they don’t think his future is as bright as he thinks it is .

  6. Why does TMZ care? Why should we care? Let them live their lives in peace.

  7. Sarky boy is such a credit to the coaching profession and the human race lol … what a complete F up , the former cell phone salesman falls into a break of a life time ( then backstabs the guy that gives him his break, of course) blows Pete endlessly, cons done dumb AD into hiring him … then another …. and still pisses all away lmao ! ” I’am sick” whines a tearful Suck lmao
    Funny stuff really
