He basically pulled a Bobby V after being told to stay the hell away by the AD while his "outburst" was investigated. With this news, we also found out that our top recruit next year has asked the AD to be released from his LOI, and our best player is likely to transfer. Huge clusterfuck.

I was all for him being fired after this dismal season, but it came down to the school (already in terrible financial shape) owing FHJ $1.8 million over the next 3 seasons thanks to a terrible extension signed by the prior AD. The school would be dealing with a political and economic mess, so I understood why they retained him. But this screams of "we're using this to get your ass out the door cheaply" and they need to do it quickly before an already suffering program has almost nothing left. They're investigating whether he can be fired for cause...if they can't do that quickly, my approach would be to offer him $500k to walk away, otherwise come after me in court for your $1.8 million while you sit on the sidelines not working and your reputation gets even worse.
