I Knew It!

Oliver Luck worshipers, look away now.

It turns out that everyone's favorite uncle and returning hero, WVU President E. Gordon Gee, wasn't exactly a fan of Ollie Luck as top-level administrative peer and athletic director.

In fact, Gordon Gee, who has built a political network to rival that of any US president or captain of industry, could not wait to be rid of Luck, so he took decisive action.  Gee called in favors from anyone and everyone in said network, mostly at the NCAA, to be rid of the troublesome Luck.  To Gee's relief, the NCAA took Luck off his hands and placed Luck in a do-nothing job.

The NCAA's compliance office?  Isn't the NCAA's entire existence about compliance?  Isn't that like working in the Hamburger Department at McDonald's?

Any port in a storm.  Can't tell you what satisfaction results from knowing without doubt that your suspicions and, yes, opinions were confirmed.
