Apparently over a workplace misconduct accusation. Problem is the school investigated it and found no wrongdoing. Odd to say the least.

Apparently an administrative assistant threatened to sue. So they decided to go ahead and fire him. The world has lost its mind.

Lol Bruce Feldman saying it was for “football reasons” only. Really, so they just waited until January to fire him?

I believe they hired an independent investigator and then made this decision. I don't believe it's as rash of a decision as you make it seem

Here’s a quote from nbc sports story

“Rodriguez was investigated this past fall by an outside law firm for “potential workplace misconduct” that led to a sexual harassment/hostile workplace claim being filed by a female who was a former administrative assistant in the athletic department. That investigation did not find any wrongdoing on Rodriguez’s part.”

One name to keep an eye on as possible replacement at Arizona: Butch Jones. Arizona AD Dave Heeke hired him at Central Michigan, where Jones coached from 2007-09.

Here’s another quote from the nbc sports article:

“Should that lawsuit be filed, and given the current climate when it comes to the mistreatment of women, the university in general and the football program in particular could come under heavy fire for retaining Rodriguez even as the investigation did not show any type of misconduct on the coach’s part.”
