Here is why these types of things never happen and it's so hard to force people like JJ and co out. You are talking about people with roots buried deep in the school and the athletic dept. These people have been there long enough to know all the dirt is and where all the bodies are buried. It's not as simple as just parting ways with JJ because as soon as you try pushing someone like him out, those loyal to him start pushing back the other way. As a school president, do you really wanna go to war with all the power brokers and old boys who back JJ? Barring a scandal, the only way to push JJ out is for athletics to tank big time under his watch. The other problem is that even if you get him out, those that matter will just place some else in there just as loyal to them as JJ. If you go back and look, that's how he got the job over more qualified applicants to begin with.

Apparently Rocker is a real possibility to come back per AUR staff.

I'm all for Rocker coming back (if he genuinely wants to). I think Garner is a good dude and I hate to see an AU man get fired, but as Trump would say "It's nothing personal, it's just bidness."
