The NCAA and Adams don't seem to be parting on the best terms. He wanted to continue in the job and they wanted someone new.

Could this controversy be manufactured by one side or the other as a result of a bad break-up?

Adams saying the system Gavitt and the NCAA purchased is inferior.

Gavitt saying the Adam's officials didn't complete the job.

Wouldn't that be bad news for DeRosa, if he was in line for Adams' job?
