Now some of the strange things that have happened at Detroit-Mercy are coming to light- AD Keri Gaither resigned suddenly and unexpectedly along with assistant basketball coach Derek Thomas on the same day (Oct. 31), right at the start of the basketball season, and gave no reason for leaving. Then shortly after that, another Detroit-Mercy men's assistant basketball coach, Carlos Briggs, was fired. Now Briggs is speaking out publically that he was fired unjustly "to cover up the misconduct of others in the athletic department" — after he brought the allegations to the school's attention. Reportedly, and now confirmed by several former Detroit players, the AD Keri Gaither, and Asst. Coach Derek Thomas (who are both married) were allegedly having an illicit affair.
