This should put to rest the idea proposed by that UNC chancellor that Presidents should allow athletic departments to run themselves. There is way too much money involved, and the people in charge hold way too much power over their underlings. Whenever you throw those two ingredients together, there is a high potential for abuse.
NKU might be small-time, but they have thrown big money into sports lately. Since 2006, they built a $64 million basketball arena, a $6.5 million soccer stadium, and jumped to D-1.
And here's the kicker - he did this for eight years before getting caught.
