Fire Barta to Fire Brian

[SCHawkeye2]

Perhaps the only way to get rid of Brian is to fire Barta.
His failures and missteps as an administrator go way beyond his failure to address this nepotism he created.
Specifically, who is Barta's boss? The President of the University, Barbara Wilson?
Could she just fire him and bring in a new AD who will do what Barta is too much of a coward to do?

I think she is too much of a coward to do it.

Will firing Barta mean BF can't be fired? BF answers to Barta and not KF. No one left to fire him. KF's not gonna do it.

Does Brian report to Barta or the AD (whoever that might be)?

I'd guess the AD. Barta's out, KF resigns to become AD, BF to HC.

James is barely hanging on to his NFL career. I bet we could get him to be OC.

Based on what?

No

Barta isnt going anywhere. The people that matter love ol' snaggle tooth.

LET'S GO BRIAN!

I don't think she'll step in and upset the sports donor's and coaching apple cart. I really don't know how much she understands sports interworking and funding impact, so I assume she'll just stay out of it.

Might depend largely on donor input. Not sure what that will be.
