ARIZONA fired RICH RODRIGUEZ after a former assistant came forward with sexual harassment allegations. The assistant has made it known she's going to sue the university, and maybe Rodriguez too. Will this set a precedent for how colleges intend to respond to such accusations? The details aren't as clear-cut as other allegations of harassment or sexual assault. The school did its own investigation and said it couldn't corroborate the claims and the assistant didn't cooperate. But obviously Arizona learned enough to fire the coach anyway. Rodriguez admitted to cheating on his wife with another woman, and the assistant says she was asked to keep that affair quiet, amidst working in what she'll probably argue is a hostile workplace. The school said it wasn't happy with the direction of the program -- which went 15-21 in the last three years after a FIESTA BOWL appearance -- and that likely contributed to Rodriguez's ouster. Arizona didn't use this as a way to escape paying Rodriguez a buyout but the legal aspect of this is more complicated than it seems. Firing college coaches, especially at public universities, is different than almost anywhere else. Will this be a gauge of how much schools are willing to tolerate and who they're willing to tolerate it from? Is there going to be a sliding scale based on how bad the allegations are and how successful the coach has been? Will sexual harassment and assault be treated with more seriousness than NCAA violations? Will there be a strict liability for coaches rightfully snagged in the #METOO movement. And will schools maintain fair working conditions for women in a high-testosterone field?... Sports can be uplifting. Good to get a reminder of that.
