But his passion needs to stay.
It is news worthy because the AD was acting like an idiot and public and that to some people's surprise he was not punished. Now this might not important to Illini fans, but it is important to others watching and judging the program. It might hurt some parent that would send their kid to that school. That is newsworthy in my opinion.
