AD didn't even know about it
his AD took the heat for scooter and in return got fired
the guy is a coward of the highest magnitude
can you imagine being a player on that team or a prospective recruit and knowing that your head coach was actively plotting behind the ADs back to weasel out of a marquee game presumably because he was too embarrassed to run out onto the field with you .. he was actively conspiring to deny his players an opportunity to showcase themselves on a huge national stage
and then to cowardly let the AD go out there to take your bullets is nothing short of disgraceful
