I think firing Shaver was a mistake. Were their reasonable points to be made about going in a different direction than Shaver? Absolutely.
Even if we agree that the Huge hiring was a bad mistake and that is at the feet of Rowe, is that grounds for firing? Point me in the direction of all of her other failures at this university that don't involve the athletics department.
IMO, the only stink here on Rowe was that she could have hired a better AD than Huge. Agreed. Second guessing someone you hired to run a department seems a worse deal for me than allowing them to do what they were hired for. Wanting Rowe fired for not stepping in to prevent the 7 sports from being cut seems equally misguided. Huge was hired to head a department. The department failed and she lost her job.

Rowe didn't hire Huge. Huge started 3/2017 and Rowe didn't come on until 2/2018.
