"Well this is a fine mess we've gotten into, Ollie". (Comedic Stage and Film Actors Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, from the 1930's, with considerable liberty taken).
We have a mess of a University Athletics situation and a mess of University stewardship and leadership.
So, when there's a mess, quick, let's try to place blame on somebody or something. It's the good ol' American Way.
Let's see:
New BOT Chairman and BOT
Interim University President
Interim University Medical School Dean
Interim University Engineering School Dean
Interim University Athletics Director
Interim University Mens Basketball Coach
University Accreditation suspended and under review.
NCAA MBB Punishment Appeal ongoing and unresolved
Suits against University by Former MBB coach
Suits against University by Former AD
Investigation of MBB Coaches by FBI
Termination of MBB Coaches
Termination of University AD
Possible New NCAA Investigations hanging over University
NCAA has no power, all the power, does nothing, everything...arbitrary?
Shoe companies now paying to "decide" where high school players go to play in college
AD's being paid too much
University Presidents being paid too much
University Staff being paid too much
University Coaches and Assistants and Staff being paid too much.
Local Newspaper needs hot topics to sell "news"papers
Academic Dept Chairs and Professors being paid too little
Papa John sells bad pizza and is a whiner
KFC Yum Center shouldn't have been located there. That's the problem!
It's all LGE's fault!
Here are the possible culprits. You may vote for one, or many or all. Too may to list in an official vote forum.

3. Emily Bingham
4. Craig Greenberg
