Morgan State coach learns of a plan to fire him through an inadvertently forwarded email

Emailing can be complicated.

There are so many buttons — reply, reply all, forward — and it's just too easy to confuse them all, just ask Morgan State athletic director Floyd Kerr.

Kerr, Tuesday, accidentally forwarded a plan to fire his head football coach to his head football coach Donald Hill-Eley. Eley, who is coming off a 3-8 season and has one year remaining on his contract, had no idea his job was in jeopardy, and other than an apology from Kerr, he's heard nothing about it since.

But at least he'll know the warning signs when he sees them.

The email, which was originally sent by Kevin Banks, Morgan State's vice president for student affairs, talked about honoring Hill-Eley's final year and possibly reassigning him to another post at the university. The email detailed the university's plan to search for a new coach this month and have a replacement in by January.
