Fire University of Arizona President Robbins and AD Heeke


Fire University of Arizona President Robbins and AD Heeke
The Issue
Through willful incompetence and dereliction of tax-payer funded duties, University of Arizona President Robert C. Robbins and University of Arizona Athletic Director Dave Heeke have severely damaged the reputation AND financial interests of the University of Arizona and the State of Arizona.
President Robbins and AD Heeke should be fired for the following reasons:
1. Waited nearly 40 days after the end of the University of Arizona Men's Basketball season to fire Coach Sean Miller, thus missing opportunities to hire the best possible replacement.
2. Completely, and unquestionably, mismanaged the hiring process to replace Coach Miller, to the point where they allowed themselves to be unwitting pawns in contract negotiations for coaches (University of Arkansas Coach Eric Musselman) that had no intention of accepting a job offer from the University of Arizona.
3. Needlessly imposed a post-season ban, thus punishing current players that had no involvement with alleged NCAA violations.
The University of Arizona Men's Basketball program financially benefited the University of Arizona, City of Tucson, and State of Arizona, as well as provided a source of pride for all current and former students. President Robbins' and AD Heeke's mismanagement and neglect have endangered the continued program's financial success and on-court competitiveness. President Robbins and AD Heeke should be fired immediately.
