[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think he got the hook. Apparently he went back to IMG. Personally, I hope SJC will stop with the sports academy nonsense now that Griffin is gone.[/quote]

"Spend more time with his family", mid-year, with no successor in place?  [/quote]

Griffin came to SJC from IMG around the time Plank gave his millions to SJC athletics. They're friends. I think the job he's heading back to Florida for just came open a few weeks ago, so entirely possible he didn't get the hook but is jumping on an opportunity. Much easier to do this kind of job at IMG -- they know what they are (a sports academy) and are unashamed about it. SJC has this catholic thing hanging over it, and the fact that it's been an educational institution for more than 150 years. They want to be another IMG but hard to reconcile that when you're supposed to be a catholic high school first. As you can see from reading what goes on there in this thread, the school doesn't act very christian these days and is not focused on whats best for the kids. [/quote]
