The Man In The Mirror
These blogs are a mirror for Graeme Abel, Antoinette Marjanovic, Cindy Fox, Cary Groth, Jean Perry, Adam Garcia, Tekla Martin, Kent Robison, Chuck Hilsabeck, Mary Dugan, and Milton Glick.
The written accounts of their criminal misconduct reflect an honest portrayal of the man in the mirror.
It is an opportunity for them to see how they portray themselves to others.
One can only hope that one day they follow the advice of the late Michael Jackson:
I am starting with the man in the mirror
I am asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
Take a look at yourself and then make the change
Character Is Revealed When Fox Faces Adversity
I ran into Cindy Fox one day. She apologized to me. For a brief moment I saw my old friend.
Shortly thereafter, I received a box of documents. In it was an email from Cindy Fox to Cary Groth. The email was Fox's written description of the day she ran into me.
I did not know whether to laugh or be angry. Fox outright lied to Groth...Which was my first clue as to how desperate and scared Fox is. It also told me how little she thought of Groth.
But I was also disgusted that this person (Fox) that I once thought so highly of could stoop so low. I had no choice but to file a police report against Fox for falsifying evidence.
I asked UNRPD to get a copy of the video surveillance since the conversation took place on campus (there are 200 homeland security cameras on campus).
Funny thing happened though...UNRPD could not come up with the surveillance tape. Imagine that!
I also offered to take a lie-detector test...and I asked them to put the same offer out to Cindy Fox. I then reviewed the police interrogation tape of Cindy Fox (yep, they sent it to me) . . .
The UNRPD never asked Fox to take a lie-detector test. They also refused to take me up on my offer to take one...even though the officer told me this was a viable option.
Finally, I told the officer I had other proof that Fox was lying...

Partners In Crime . . . Corrupt Cary
The University of Georgia released the list of candidates who applied for their recently filled Athletic Director position.
The reporter stated in the comment section that Georgia Head Basketball Coach Mark Fox's former boss, Nevada Athletic Director Cary Groth, was not among the 88 people that had applied for the position.
Considering my observation of the Groth and Fox's (Mark & Cindy) relationship I am not surprised.
I know that Cindy Fox has lied to Groth on a number of occasions, both before and after I worked with them.
And considering Groth is a chronic liar there is no doubt in my mind that she has lied to the Fox's.
The relationship between Groth and the Fox's always appeared to me to be one built on survival rather than substance ... partners in crime that is.
Let's be honest though, had Groth applied at Georgia, Mark Fox would have been in the precarious position of having to lie to his President about "corrupt Cary" or tell the truth about his and his wife's tenure at Nevada.

One Devil In Georgia Is Enough
The University of Georgia has named a new athletic director, Greg McGarity, University of Florida's Associate Athletic Director.
I could not help but ponder whether Mark Fox, now the head basketball coach at Georgia, encouraged or discouraged the potential candidacy of Nevada Athletic Director Cary Groth for the position.
The quandary for Fox is that he knows Groth is an embarrassment to Nevada Athletics, he knows she is corrupt, and he knows she is in over her head as an athletic director (i.e. million dollar budget deficit, NCAA probation, confessed retaliator, and chronic liar).
However, Fox also knows that Groth and his wife are deeply implicated together in criminal activity in Reno. And criminals usually stick together until the hand cuffs are applied.
Fox is also aware that Groth covered up major violations of NCAA rules in the basketball program under his leadership. She also concealed other misconduct of Fox's while he was at Nevada.
Perhaps Fox would feel like he owes Groth something.
Regardless, Georgia was looking for "a person of integrity"... a quality Groth is severely lacking.
I guess one devil in Georgia is enough. See post below, "Devil Went Down To Georgia".

"Devil Went Down To Georgia"
Letter from a reader:
I have been reading up on your case and am astounded by the number of criminal acts committed by Cindy Fox. Some of her actions certainly meet federal jurisdiction as they have crossed state lines.
I cannot believe for the life of me that the administration at the University of Georgia is aware of what she has been doing. Her behavior while married to one of their high profile employees is very dangerous to UGA.
I could not help but think of the song "Devil Went Down To Georgia" as I reviewed the evidence against her. In the end Charlie Daniel's said, "The devil bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat".
Keep the faith and engage the Fed's. Fox made it their jurisdiction.

A.D. Groth On DUI's: OK For Coaches, Athletes Punished
The RGJ is reporting today that a Nevada football player was arrested for a DUI on Friday.
The football coach suspended him from two games this season and revoked 50% of his scholarship.
Certainly this is a necessary consequence to a very serious offense.
I could not ignore, however, the bizarre fact that the Nevada Head Ski Coach, who was recently convicted of a DUI (after leaving the strip club, "Fantasy Girls"), was not disciplined by Athletic Director Cary Groth.
Even more disturbing ... I have secured records from the athletic department that show that Groth spent thousands of dollars in university money to make arrangements to accommodate for the coach's DUI.
Shouldn't coaches be held to higher standards than the student-athletes?
As noted below, the athletic director at the University of Georgia was immediately fired for a DUI arrest this summer. He was not supported and given extra funds to accommodate for his DUI.
Then again, A.D. Groth has proven over and over again that she is clearly lacking in ethical standards.
Any expectation of leadership from Groth left the station years ago.
The Evolution Of A Retaliator
The day after I left UNR, I ran into Dr. Jean Perry. Dr. Perry oversees compliance at UNR.
She was really supportive and immediately knew I was retaliated against by Athletic Director Cary Groth.
Dr. Perry offered, unsolicited, to help me get an attorney and even discussed attorneys that she knew.
I spoke to Dr. Perry again weeks later and she again offered her support.
Then, one day it all changed.
The day after I testified that UNR was under investigation by the NCAA, Dr. Perry joined the retaliation team. She immediately joined forces with A.D. Groth to falsify evidence against me to cover up major violations of NCAA rules at UNR.
Why? Because Dr. Perry apparently felt, based on her position overseeing compliance, that she would be under serious pressure due to the NCAA investigation.
Having witnessed the reaction (pure panic) of the UNR lawyer and Groth to my testimony that they were under NCAA investigation, I am certain that Dr. Perry was pressured by them to join the retaliation team.
Dr. Perry then continued her retaliation after she was implicated in public corruption at a court hearing.
What a sad fall from grace from someone who once had some integrity and ethics.

Did Charles Hilsabeck Betray His Little Retaliators?
Do you think UNR lawyer Charles Hilsabeck informed the retaliation team that he was going to be leaving the university shortly after they did his dirty work for him?
The retaliation team (Cary Groth, Cindy Fox, Graeme Abel, Antoinette Marjanovic, Jean Perry, Tekla Martin, and Adam Garcia) are the puppets who engage in criminal activity at the direction of the UNR lawyers.
See several posts below, including: "The Dog And Pony Show", UNR Lawyers And Graeme Abel Had Something To Hide, UNR Lawyers, Graeme Abel, And Others Exposed, More Astounding Behavior By The Retaliation Team, and Graeme Abel's Motivation To Retaliate, for a sampling of the embarrassing, juvenile, and criminal activity orchestrated and led by UNR General Counsel Mary Dugan's office.
Hilsabeck bolted when the heat got too high.
Somehow I doubt he was upfront with the retaliators about his plan to jump off the sinking ship.

"Be Courageous, Play Your Game, Shrug Off Cheap Shots"
You do not have to be a fan of soccer to appreciate this article on Spains victory in the World Cup:
Spain's victory lifted my heart because it was done the right way.
In the final against Holland, in the face of the most appalling provocation, Spain stuck to playing soccer the way it was meant to be played and triumphed. It is not easy for highly trained athletes to do this.
In Sunday's final . . . Gabi Alonso nearly had his sternum crushed by a karate kick by Nigel De Jong that if it had been three inches higher probably would have snapped his neck. Andres Iniesta was subjected to the kind of leg whipping and direct assault on his knees that has long been banned in the NFL.
It would have been understandable if one of the Spanish players tried to break Arjen Robben's leg.
Understandable but wrong.
In any case, Spain kept their cool and courage and stuck to their uncynical game plan focused on playing the ball forward and looking to score.
Holland took the short term, do whatever it takes even if you break the rules approach beloved of shadow bankers and short-sellers everywhere. Spain won.
Here's the metaphor: In a time when rule breakers have all the advantages; when people who are already phenomenally rich game the law in much the same way as the Dutch gamed the referee — what was he going to do? Show a couple of red cards in the final?
When people who try to do things the right way find themselves thrown out of work by short-term thinking managers, small businesses are unable to get finance because banks are oriented towards generating money for their bonuses.
In short when we stand on the precipice of economic catastrophe because people get no reward for living the right way, Spain's victory shines out.
Be courageous, play your game, shrug off the cheap shots, eyes on the prize and you can win.

UNR Attorney Charles Hilsabeck Leaves The University
Great news!
UNR Attorney Chuck Hilsabeck left the University.
As one of the resident liars in the UNR General Counsel's Office, he was involved in falsifying my UNR and ASU personnel files. Suffice to say I am celebrating his departure.
I last saw Hilsabeck two weeks ago in court. I informed yet another judge at this hearing that Hilsabeck
was a liar who regularly engaged in criminal activity in my case.
Hilsabeck never denied it...because he knew I could prove it.
What a fitting send off for a shameless man and his fraudulent career.
Unfortunately, General Counsel Mary Dugan is likely hard at work training in a newby to do her dirty work.

Athletic Director Fired After DUI Arrest
The University of Georgia forced out its Athletic Director 3 days after he was arrested for a DUI.
This is an example of how leadership is supposed to work at an institution of higher learning.
Athletic Director Damon Evans was hired by the current President Michael Adams in 2004. However, "once I learned all the facts I felt there was no choice but to do what is best for the university," Adams said.
Adams said it didn't take long to decide a change was necessary. "I would simply say to you it was the totality of the situation and what it said about good judgment or lack of such at this level that led me to my conclusion," Adams said.
"This is a sacred trust that we're all merely stewards of and we need to make sure in every decision we make and everything we do we have ultimately the best interests of the university at stake."
Adams said he is looking for "a person of integrity" to replace Evans.
It is safe to say then that Nevada Athletic Director Cary Groth will not make Adams' short list.

Loyalty, Honesty, Trust . . . Truth

If you base everything on the truth and doing the right thing everything else is secondary."

Cary Groth Puts Nevada Athletics In Financial Peril
According to the RGJ, Nevada Athletics is facing a deficit for the first time in school history. This is another
badge of honor for Athletic Director Cary Groth.
Depending who you believe (President Glick or the Board of Regents) the deficit ranges from $1 to $2 million.
In response, Groth is urging the community to donate money before the fiscal year ends on June 30, 2010.
I cannot help but wonder if Groth is telling donors how UNR spends their money.
Does Groth tell them that their donations may be used to assist in covering up her criminal leadership?
Does Groth tell them that their generosity may be used to fly Cindy Fox across country to commit perjury and falsify evidence?
Does she tell them it may be used to hire her girlfriend and her cronies over more qualified applicants?
Any misrepresentation or deception in her sales pitch to donors would fall under criminal fraud.

UNR Lawyers Make A Mockery Out Of Their Witnesses
One of the UNR lawyer "games" is to try to intimidate me by listing my student-athletes as witnesses.
The lawyers tried hard to find an athlete to say bad things about me under oath. It didn't work.
In the end, the lawyers only put one of their alleged student-athlete witnesses through a deposition.
When I showed up for the deposition the student-athlete was not there. It turns out they had her on the telephone. Since a telephonic deposition is unusable my lawyer and I walked out, declining to participate.
What is really sad about this situation though is that the student-athlete's mom had sent me two letters while she played for me. The letters warned me about her daughter's penchant for lying.
I had saved these letters and subsequently produced them to the UNR lawyers well in advance of this
deposition. The lawyers knew I had her own mothers words to impeach her credibility.
I am confident that the lawyers did not tell the student-athlete that I had produced these letters from her mother. I doubt the she even knew her mother sent them to me. So the lawyers "used" this naive young lady to try to harass and intimidate me. Sound familiar?
The lawyers, clearly embarrassed that we refused to participate in their unusable deposition, proceeded with it anyway after we left. I suppose they wanted to conceal their embarrassing gaffe from the student.
Weeks later, I read a copy of the deposition and started laughing. She lied on the very first question.
The lawyers picked up on the lie right away knowing it was a physical impossibility. They tried to get her to correct herself, explaining that her statement was not possible. She ignored them and reiterated the lie.
The lawyers stumbled through the rest of the deposition knowing she was not credible. Even better...as hard as they tried to get her to hurt me, they failed.
Once again, the UNR lawyers made a mockery out of their own witness, a young student-athlete, revealing
just how low their moral compass truly is.

Failing The University In Their Positions Of Leadership
There is a lot going on right now around the country in regards to conference realignment with different universities. The Reno Gazette Journal ran a pretty thorough section on Nevada's place in it all.
In one article the writer called out Nevada Athletic Director Cary Groth and President Milton Glick for their failure to be proactive on behalf of the university.
Both Groth and Glick admitted that neither one of them have contacted the Mountain West Conference Commissioner to let them know of their interest. Not one phone call!
C'mon? Really? What exactly is it that these people do in their jobs?
It is the responsibility of an athletic director and president to grow the university and put it in the best position academically and athletically.
Conference affiliation can have a tremendous effect on the academic prestige of an institution.
Would it be too much to ask Cary Groth to spend less time shopping at TJ MAX in the middle of the work day so she can lead the department and university to a better future?
Groth has been spotted shopping around 2 pm on a weekday. It happened to be at the same time the baseball team was playing a home game. Her time should be spent supporting the programs she is supposed to be leading and propelling the university forward.
Groth apparently knew her actions were less than noble as she is alleged to have darted out of the store immediately upon being identified.
Perhaps her admin. assistant can check and see if Groth is taking leave time for her shopping sprees.

"Yes, The Athletics Director At Nevada Is A Corrupt Liar"
Excerpts from an email I received last week:
"...Yes, the Athletics Director at Nevada is a corrupt liar.
Cary Groth has lied to University donors, she has lied to the N-C-A-A. Cary Groth has lied under oath to judges and to hearing officers. She even lies to her staff.
She is a desperate woman who is on the run from one lie after another.
Of great discomfort and cause for alarm is the fact that University President Milton Glick knows his athletic director lies and retaliates.
Groth's domestic partner, Laura Scott, was recently hired as an advisor for academics in the athletics department. Groth continues to surround herself with her cronies to protect her corrupt leadership. The bunker mentality is at play in Nevada athletics.
...Much and many thanks to those who keep us apprised of Cary Groth's immature, unethical, unlawful and defamatory leadership. We continue to gather evidence to ensure Ms. Groth and her cronies are properly prosecuted under the law."
Graeme Abel's Motivation To Retaliate?
What was Graeme Abel's motivation to falsify evidence and participate in "The Dog And Pony Show"?
In November, Graeme informed Athletic Director Cary Groth that he was seeking re-employment at UNR.
Shortly thereafter, the UNR administration contacted Graeme to participate in "The Dog And Pony Show".
The UNR administration certainly knew Graeme could not say "no" if he wanted a job at UNR...right? He was the perfect pawn for their little criminal skit.
UNR administrators "used" Graeme, and then, true to their character, did not offer him a job.
This same method of operation was used with my former assistant coach, Antoinette Marjanovic. She applied for the head coaching job at UNR in 2007.
Shortly thereafter, the administration recommended that she falsify evidence against me knowing she could not say "no" if she wanted the job. Marjanovic was another perfect pawn.
Once again, UNR administrators "used" Marjanovic and then proceeded to hire someone else.
This is similar to how UNR lawyers "used" Cindy Fox. The lawyers disclosed very personal information about Fox to complete strangers right after she participated in their embarrassing little skit.
As noted in the post below, the criminal skit backfired on the shameless retaliators.

A Dramatic Miscalculation That Recoiled On The Retaliators
As noted in recent posts below and in previous posts on blog #2, UNR lawyers and their accomplices went to unlawful lengths to conduct their "Dog And Pony Show".
So what happened as a result of "The Dog And Pony Show"?
Well...the judge knew the desperate retaliators' testimony was irrelevant and of no redeeming value; and he knew their testimony contained perjury and falsified evidence.
So the judge completely disregarded their testimony. Yes, he threw every last word they said in the trash. He really had no choice because their testimony was that absurd.
Next, I brought all of the fraud committed by the retaliators in this criminal skit to higher authorities. Of course, I notified the UNR lawyers and the judge of this process.
Within a week of this notification, the judge withdrew an order he had issued against me back in August of 2009...the one where I am supposed to pay the Defendants' costs and attorneys fees of $110,000.
That order was a fraud and everyone involved in my case knew it. However, now the judge owned up to his misconduct and withdrew it.
So "The Dog And Pony Show" backfired. It was a dramatic miscalculation that recoiled on its makers.
Do you think the UNR lawyers told the rest of the retaliation team (Cary Groth, Cindy Fox, Graeme Abel, Jean Perry, Tekla Martin, and Adam Garcia) that their juvenile and unlawful skit backfired? I highly, doubt it.

The Retaliators Cannot Even Trust Each Other
As noted in the post below, the UNR lawyers have no problem "using" and "exposing" their own witnesses.
If you have been following "The Dog And Pony Show" narrative then you are aware that UNR General Counsel Mary Dugan obstructs justice to protect UNR officials accused of criminal conduct.
Dugan used tax payers dollars to fly Cindy Fox across the country to participate in their criminal skit, "The Dog And Pony Show". Yes, folks you paid for Fox to engage in illegal activity.
Fox's motive is, of course, retaliation for exposing her husband's misconduct while he was the Head Basketball Coach at Nevada. Yes, Cindy Fox is married to Mark Fox.
For Cindy Fox's efforts, the General Counsel's Office rewarded Fox by violating her personal privacy. A UNR lawyer recently disclosed very personal and very important information about Fox to complete strangers.
Why Fox and Graeme Abel (see post below) thought they would be protected by these very corrupt lawyers is beyond me. Did Fox and Abel really think that people this unethical would not violate their trust too?
As previously noted, the retaliators cannot even trust each other.

More Astounding Behavior By The Retaliation Team
"The documents" revealed more astounding behavior by the UNR retaliation team.
You know, the documents that General Counsel Mary Dugan lied to another institution’s legal counsel about, falsely asserting attorney-client privilege where none existed, in a failed attempt to keep them from me.
I learned that Graeme Abel and UNR's private lawyer, Kent Robison, had a phone conversation to "prepare" Abel for his false testimony under oath at "The Dog And Pony Show". Perjury is a felony by the way.
One topic that Robison coached Abel to testify about was an alleged email from a student-athlete to Abel.
The disturbing thing is ... Robison had already conceded to the Supreme Court that this email is a fraud.
The district judge also has proof (from the student-athlete) that the email was not legitimate.
So do you think Robison informed Abel of this information? Did Robison "use" Abel to save himself, while making a mockery out of his own corrupt witness?
Abel knows how the email was manufactured . . . a coach screaming at an 18 year-old in his office (just 3 weeks after she arrives on campus) for no legitimate reason, is bound to intimidate the student into "false compliance" ... Abel gets no pass, regardless of Robison's conduct.
I could not help but notice, though, that the retaliators cannot even trust each other.

UNR Lawyers, Graeme Abel, And Others Exposed
A couple of posts below, under "UNR Lawyers And Graeme Abel Had Something To Hide", I mentioned some important documents I received from another university.
UNR General Counsel Mary Dugan had outright lied to this other university's legal counsel in an effort to block me from receiving these documents. Her efforts failed.
Here are a few initial tidbits that I have learned from these documents:
1) UNR, in the middle of a budget crisis that is forcing them to cut entire academic programs, employment positions, and opportunities for students, is paying for airfare and hotels for out-of-state individuals to travel to Reno to commit perjury and falsify evidence.
2) Attorneys Dugan, Charles Hilsabeck, and Kent Robison, along with Athletic Director Cary Groth, former Assoc. A.D. Cindy Fox, and former Asst. Coach Graeme Abel were all implicated in this criminal scheme.
This scheme is of course "The Dog And Pony Show". See also "The Dog And Pony Show - Final Wrap-Up"
3) UNR attorneys "worked with" Fox and Abel in advance to "prepare them" to testify (err...lie under oath).
Much more on this in my next post....

The Motto: "Do As We Say, Not As We Do"
Nevada Associate Athletic Director Keith Hackett commenting on a student-athlete on the football team:
“From a behavioral standpoint, you can’t do things that continue to embarrass your family’s name, your program, your athletics department, and your university,” Hackett said.
But Mr. Hackett, Athletic Director Cary Groth continues to engage in behavior that "embarrasses her family's name, the athletics department, and the university". See the post directly below: President Glick Admits A.D. Groth Has Behavior Issues?
Hackett also said, “It was bad for them to be drinking to the point where they don’t have control of their senses..."
But Mr. Hackett, a Nevada coach was recently arrested and convicted of a DUI (blood alcohol content
of .133) after he was witnessed accelerating at high rates of speed leaving the strip club Fantasy Girls. This coach clearly "drank to the point where he did not have control of his senses".
So why should the student-athletes be expected to behave appropriately when the athletic director and certain coaches do not? Unbelievable...

QUESTION: Do you consider lying and committing perjury behavior issues?
UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA PRESIDENT MILTON GLICK: Yes.
Considering that Nevada Athletic Director Cary Groth lies under oath, lies to judges, lies to the NCAA, lies to student-athletes, lies to the community, lies to her staff, lies to donors, and lies to the media, President Glick clearly concedes that his Athletic Director has behavior issues.

UNR Lawyers And Graeme Abel Had Something To Hide
I wanted to secure documents that I knew UNR General Counsel Mary Dugan and her subordinates would conceal, destroy, or alter if I requested them from UNR. That is their modus operandi.
I also knew that another institution would have these documents ... so I contacted them instead.
These documents pertained directly to the criminal activity that my former assistant coach, Graeme Abel, has been partaking in with the UNR administration. His motive . . . more on that at another time.
Somehow along the way Dugan got wind of my request. So Dugan went behind my back and sent a letter to this other institution asserting attorney-client privilege over some of the documents I had requested.
Clearly Dugan and Abel had something to hide. Dugan tried to claim that the UNR lawyers represented Abel so therefore communications between them should be confidential. That is absurd!
Not to mention an outright lie by Dugan to another institution's legal counsel.
The other university graciously alerted me to Dugan's little scheme. They also notified Dugan that her request for attorney-client privilege was being denied and the documents would be sent to me.
I received the documents and it is safe to say that Dugan, Abel, and the rest of the retaliation team clearly had some things to hide. More on this in an upcoming blog. These people are shameless...

What Do A.D. Cary Groth and Pinocchio Have In Common?
I ran across an old article from June 2008. I could not help but revisit it in light of the recent NCAA sanctions against Nevada as it exposes more lies by Athletic Director Cary Groth and Golf Coach Rich Merritt.
This statement below was made shortly after Merritt stepped down from his position.
In resigning this month, Rich Merritt said he made "errors in judgment" the athletic department was not aware of, but he declined to elaborate.
Athletic Director Cary Groth said the NCAA investigation had nothing to do with Merritt's resignation.
Groth was absolutely aware of Merritt's misconduct as far back as June 2007.
And, Merritt's termination (disguised as a resignation) had everything to do with the NCAA investigation.
Yes, UNR President Milton Glick is fully aware that his athletic director is both a liar and a retaliator.

Athletic Director Cary Groth Defrauding Community, Donors
The University of Nevada Athletic Department website has a Nevada Athletics Vision Statement.
One of the core values listed is:
As an integral part of the university, "the team" will operate with the highest degree of integrity, fairness and accountability.
"The team" is defined as all athletics staff, student-athletes and volunteers.
Clearly Athletic Director Cary Groth is part of the team. As a matter of fact, she is the leader of the team.
Please check out my blog #3 dedicated to Athletic Director Groth and make your own determination on
whether she is honoring the core values of "integrity, fairness and accountability".
A.D. Groth is defrauding the community, especially donors, with misrepresentation and deception.

University of Nevada Coach Arrested And Convicted Of DUI
A thank you owed to the person who sent this information my way:
A University of Nevada Head Coach was recently arrested and convicted of a DUI.
According to the police report, the coach was arrested after he departed from the strip club, Fantasy Girls. He was pulled over after he was witnessed accelerating rapidly up to high rates of speed in downtown Reno. His blood alcohol content was .133.
Yes, Athletic Director Cary Groth knows about this. And, yes, the coach is still employed at Nevada.
Groth retained Coach Rich Merritt after he lied and cheated.
Now she retains a coach who was arrested and convicted of a DUI. The same offense that many Nevada student-athletes have been kicked off their teams for.
Oh, the hypocrisy!
Psst...the UNR attorneys seem a little irrated that this information came to my attention.

The Pot Calling The Kettle Black
Since Nevada Athletics was put on probation for major NCAA rules violations under Athletic Director Cary Groth's leadership, Groth has been publicly calling Rich Merritt a "rogue coach" in the print and TV media.
Groth knew of Merritt's numerous violations in August 2007. She knew he was a "rogue coach" then.
Groth knew of Merritt's numerous violations in August 2007. She knew he was a "rogue coach" then.
Yet Groth supported her NCAA rule-violating coach in a March 11, 2008 news article:
"Rich Merritt is still our golf coach," Groth said. "He paid his penalty, paid his dues and he served it. He’s not getting fired."
This statement was made by Groth in the middle of the NCAA’s investigation into Merritt's misconduct and after the coach was already charged with numerous NCAA violations, including Unethical Conduct.
Despite all of this Groth vehemently supported him; consistent with her history of supporting NCAA rule violators and placing her institutions under scrutiny of the NCAA.
Groth only fired her "friend" Merritt after the heat got too high. Now she is throwing him to the wolves, acting as if Merritt's misconduct was unknown to her.
"Rogue" A.D. Groth's own misconduct, including criminal and NCAA violations, are detailed in blog #3.
Groth calling Merritt "rogue" is the ultimate in hypocrisy and truly "the pot calling the kettle black".
A Roll Call Of Liars In Nevada Athletics
This Reno Gazette Journal article is about basketball player Brandon Field's and an incident that got him suspended from the team in 2008. From the article:
Coach Mark Fox was furious. The players, all three of whom were cited for misdemeanor larceny, were suspended indefinitely. Fox dragged each one of them into his office to give his side of the story.
They all lied. There was no shoplifting, they said. It had to be a mistake. Pressed, Giles later admitted guilt. Fields, Fox was told, was innocent. But he was guilty of lying, and so he sat.
"Fox knew I didn't do anything, but the stories we were telling didn't match up." "I was fibbing a little bit. That's why I was suspended. I didn't steal, but I lied to him. So, that was the punishment."
Let's take a roll call:
-- Athletic Director Cary Groth has lied, lied, and lied again and falsified evidence in her position.
-- Fox's wife, Executive Associate Athletic Director Cindy Fox, lied and falsified evidence in her position.
-- Asst. to the President for Academics, Athletics, and Compliance Jean Perry has lied in her position.
-- Head Golf Coach Rich Merritt lied and cheated in his position.
Perhaps Brandon Fields was just following the lead of the "role models" at the University of Nevada, Reno.
Is Fox furious with his wife, Cindy, and former boss, Groth, for their lies? Or does Fox look the other way since they lied to cover up his misconduct and to conceal NCAA violations in the basketball program?
It is sad that student-athletes are held to higher standards than that of the administration at UNR.

Congratulations and thanks to you for your feisty commitment to truth, justice, and the American Way!
Congratulations! That should feel like some vindication for your efforts.
They so hate it that you were right! Keep it up!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for exposing former Golf Coach Rich Merritt and Athletic Director Cary Groth for the liars that they are!
It is clear you were right all along. You knew it. UNR knew it. Now everyone knows it. Good job!
More On The University of Nevada's NCAA Sanctions
This Sunday article in the Reno Gazette Journal gives a little more insight into the ramifications of the NCAA sanctions against the University of Nevada Athletic Department. Three things worth noting:
1) Several student-athletes knowingly participated in the NCAA violations. They are responsible in part for the penalties imposed on the present and future Nevada golf student-athletes.
2) Former Golf Coach Rich Merritt's supervisor, Cindy Fox, and Athletic Director Cary Groth are responsible for their lack of oversight of this coach. His violations were many and over a lengthy period of time.
3) Fox and Groth knew of nearly every one of Merritt's violations in August 2007. Yet they retained him anyway, knowing that he repeatedly lied to the Director of Compliance, that he jeopardized the eligibility and welfare of his student-athletes, and that he put the entire university athletics program at risk.
Groth has been athletic director at two universities. Both have landed on probation for major violations of NCAA rules under her leadership.
Blog #2 has some new updates. Blog #3 has details of Athletic Director Cary Groth's misconduct.
See blog #4 for NCAA Investigation Details. All five blogs are linked in the left-hand column.

Nevada Athletics On Probation For Major NCAA Violations
The NCAA placed the Nevada Athletic Department on probation for three years due to major NCAA rules violations centered on ex-men's golf coach Rich Merritt. I highlighted a few comments in the NCAA Report:
"Thus the story the golf coach and the student-athlete concocted regarding how the student-athlete was able to fly roundtrip between his home and the tournament site was a fabrication."
"These "dares" were challenges by the golf coach for a student-athlete to engage in two crass acts;"
"In an interview with the university's compliance director, the golf coach emphatically denied providing the airline ticket. The information developed during the investigation disproved the golf coach's assertions..."
"Several individuals expressed their belief that the golf coach wagered on sporting events. The enforcement staff requested access to the coach's financial records. Although he provided access to his joint checking account, which showed a significant number of transactions at casinos in Reno and Las Vegas, he refused the enforcement staff's request for access to his credit accounts.
"The violations reflected the golf coach's failure to promote an atmosphere of compliance through both his disregard for NCAA extra-benefit legislation and failure to provide truthful and complete information about violations of NCAA legislation when they were discovered."
"In fact, it was only when the golf coach was presented with objective proof of violations of NCAA legislation in the form of documentation, admissions by student-athletes or admissions by his father that the golf coach conceded that violations of NCAA legislation occurred and admitted culpability."

In Honor Of March Madness ... Sports Betting ... Golf Coach
I could not help but think of my ol' colleague Rich Merritt with college basketball's March Madness starting up.
Rich is the former Head Men's Golf Coach at the University of Nevada who was forced out in 2008 after the NCAA came to town to investigate allegations of his numerous NCAA violations, including sports betting (a very serious violation for employees of the NCAA).
At my whistleblower hearing Athletic Director Cary Groth and I both sat and listened to eyewitness testimony under oath from a confidante of Merritt's that Merritt bet on college and professional sports at local casinos.
Despite the repeated spin and manipulation in the media from Groth that Merritt will be cleared of sports betting charges when the NCAA renders its decision, Groth and I both know the evidence says otherwise.
It should be noted that Merritt and Groth come from the same school of ethics . . . liars, liars!

Terri Patraw: Roommate Perks
As revealed four posts below under Corrupt Hiring Practices In Nevada Athletics, Athletic Director Cary Groth's domestic partner, Laura Scott, was hired last month in the Nevada Athletic Department.
This snapshot is from the Washoe County Home Assessor's site.

Current Owner Mailing Address | |

GROTH, CARY S ETAL |
SCOTT, LAURA A |
This snapshot is from the Washoe County Home Assessor's site.
I then reviewed a stack of documents that contained Groth's host expense forms over the past few years.
These forms are detailed receipts of who and what the athletic director spends university money on.
Well wouldn't you know whose name repeatedly appeared as a "guest" of Groth's on these forms prior to her February hire . . . Groth's roommate Laura Scott.
So Groth's roommate is repeatedly entertained on the university's dime and subsequently given a job in the athletic department over more qualified candidates.
Policies, (NCAA) rules, laws . . . who needs 'em . . .
Athletic Director Cary Groth Shuns NCAA Values, Rules
At a recent Board of Regents meeting for the Nevada System of Higher Education, University of Nevada, Reno President Milton Glick made the following statement:
The NCAA could enforce the relocation of coaches, but they do not enforce the movement of athletic directors.
What Glick is saying is that the NCAA could require an institution to remove a coach who was caught violating NCAA rules from his/her position. However, according to Glick, the NCAA does not require an institution to remove an athlletic director caught violating NCAA rules (i.e. lying and cheating).
Now why would Glick feel compelled to make such a statement to the Regents in the midst of an ongoing NCAA investigation at his institution? Hmmmm......
Do you find it disturbing that Glick is only concerned with what the NCAA can and cannot enforce?
Glick knows that his Athletic Director Cary Groth lies and covers up NCAA violations, clearly violating NCAA rules. However, as long as the NCAA will not require him to remove his corrupt athletic director from her position he will continue to employ her and even extend her contract!
Groth and Glick are making a public mockery out of the NCAA and the pillars on which it stands: Honesty, Integrity, Ethical Conduct, and Moral Values. NCAA Bylaws 10, 11, and 19.

Dr. Perry, Oversees NCAA Compliance, Lied To The NCAA
A few months back I was reviewing documents when I ran across an email from Dr. Jean Perry, UNR's Special Assistant to the President for Athletics Academics & Compliance, to several employees at the NCAA.
The email was about me and my knowledge of the NCAA investigation . . . and guess what?
Yep . . . Dr. Perry, who oversees NCAA compliance at UNR, lied to the NCAA.
In response to this discovery, I sent an email to the individuals at the NCAA to inform them that Perry lied to them about me. I also provided proof. Unlike Dr. Perry, I was gracious enough to copy her on the email.
I am still waiting for an apology from Dr. Perry . . .
So the person responsible for NCAA compliance at UNR, Dr. Perry, lies to the NCAA, defames others, gets caught, and refuses to apologize.
And then in the next breath she tells administrators, coaches, and student-athletes to abide by NCAA rules??? You know the rules that promote honesty, ethics, and integrity. Oh the hypocrisy!
Dr. Perry has also been implicated in the grand jury investigation of public corruption at UNR. I have evidence that Dr. Perry was involved with Athletic Director Cary Groth and recent Executive Associate Athletic Director Cindy Fox in falsifying documents in my case.
The purpose of these fraudulent documents? To cover up NCAA violations at UNR!
So what did Dr. Perry do in response to my exposure of her lies and falsification of documents? She appeared at the The Dog And Pony Show ... lied under oath ... and falsified another document.
What amazes me is not that Dr. Perry joined the retaliation team after I exposed her lies and fraudulent conduct, but that she lied about me again when I have the ability to prove it . . . yet again.

UNR Attorney Kent Robison A Liar And A Thief?

Patraw took the matter up [with] the Supreme Court that you could not be fair, that I was a liar and a thief and this, that and the other thing, and that the evidence presented . . . was fabricated and lies.
Well, just to be clear, I actually proved all this to the courts. . . with hard, factual evidence.
Robison then conceded to it after the evidence left him more than a tad bit exposed.
Thief is his word, not mine. However, I am sure he is referring to his fraudulent billing records on his state contract in my case.
I presented evidence of his false billings at the evidentiary hearing on public corruption by UNR officials.
Corrupt Hiring Practices In Nevada Athletics?
Ok, so I avoided this one even though I have known about it for awhile. However, too many people are up in arms about it and keep asking me to post this. Here is what my sources revealed:
Cary Groth announced a new hire in the athletic department this past month at a staff meeting.
The new hire is a woman named Laura Scott. Her new position is academic advisor for athletics.
Laura Scott was most recently the director of fitness at Montreux Golf Course in Reno. She is also the former Head Tennis Coach at Northern Illinois University. Scott resigned from NIU in 2004, days after Cary Groth accepted the athletic director position at Nevada.
Scott moved to Reno and owns a home with Groth. I guess that makes them domestic partners?
This snap shot was sent to me. It is from the Washoe County home assessor site.
I have yet to hear that Laura Scott has any academic advising experience. However, I am told that there were two very qualified candidates in the pool of applicants from the Pac-10 and the ACC that had academic advising experience in athletics.
Based on my experience there, Dr. Jean Perry would have overseen this search process. Dr. Perry is also working closely with Groth on the NCAA investigation as Perry oversees NCAA compliance at Nevada. And we know Cary Groth has covered up NCAA violations at Nevada.
Next time you seen Dr. Perry ask her if this was an honest search process done with the best interest of the student-athletes in mind?

Terri Patraw: Did Cindy Fox Lie?
Nevada's recent Executive Associate Athletic Director Cindy Fox made the following statement in court:
I said, nobody lied at that [whistleblower] hearing. I mean, I said everybody was telling the truth.
Uhhh, are you serious???
See the post: "Athletic Director Cary Groth Commits Despicable Perjury ". The two depositions by Groth detailed there occurred at the whistleblower hearing!
See also Blog #3 - it is now devoted entirely to Nevada Athletic Director Cary Groth. There you will find numerous examples of perjury and other misconduct, much of which occurred at the whistleblower hearing.
Next time you see Cindy Fox, ask her if she stands by her statement! Oops!
Fox, by the way, was one of the individuals implicated in soliciting student-athletes to falsify evidence against me. Desperate people do very desperate things ...
AD Groth Commits Perjury About NCAA Violation Cover Up
In my post directly below this one I mentioned the ridiculous Dog and Pony Show that broke out at the court house last week. Well, the little criminal skit included an abundance of perjury . . . imagine that!
Of course, true to form, Nevada Athletic Director Cary Groth committed more perjury . . . pertaining to her own cover-up of NCAA violations in the Nevada Men's Basketball Program.
Athletic Director Cary Groth's Under Oath Lie:
CARY GROTH: I did.
ROBISON: Is that violative of her role as a coach at the University of Nevada, Reno?
GROTH: It is her responsibility to inform us of any potential NCAA violations, yes, sir.
Groth and Robison know that I have NEVER accepted any money from the Assistant Basketball Coach in exchange for not reporting NCAA violations. I have absolute proof of this. In addition, the Assistant Basketball Coach has also stated that this is a false statement [lie] by Groth.
So why would Groth lie about this? Because she is the one who covered up the violations in the basketball program that I had reported and subsequently violated her role as Nevada's Athletic Director.
Psst: I can only hope that Dr. Jean Perry, who took part in The Dog and Pony Show, reported AD Groth's misconduct (perjury and cover up of NCAA violations) to the NCAA. Perry oversees compliance at UNR so it would be violative of her role if she failed to do so.
It is Groth's misconduct that has the University under investigation by the NCAA...for over two years now.
Much, much more on this very soon . . .
Terri Patraw: The Dog And Pony Show
I went to the court house last week and a dog and pony show broke out. It was truly one of the most embarrassing displays of public corruption I have ever witnessed by so called professionals.
My attorney and I left the court house. The defense team had to perform their criminal skit to an empty
audience. Of course the skit was designed to harass and intimidate me. Can we say desperate?
I have never been so embarrassed for this defense team as I was Monday morning when I learned the details of their little skit.
With the state budget cuts going on right now it might interest you to know that the UNR administration (and their accomplices) spent hours committing more perjury and submitting more manufactured evidence to the court on state time!
The criminal activity that took place there has, of course, been forwarded to the appropriate agencies.
Oops! UNR Attorneys, probably forgot to tell their puppet accomplices why they so desperately needed them. These attorneys are deeply implicated in criminal activity in my case. They needed help covering up their criminal conduct. They just dug the hole that much deeper.
Funny thing is that I have evidence that proves they committed perjury!
One piece of advise: Don't lie about things that occur on campus. There are over 200 homeland security cameras on campus that can prove you lied!

Terri Patraw: Desperate People
A very wise man told me that desperate people make bad tactical decisions.
They think for the moment and not about the long term implications of their strategy.
He said one must sit back and wait until the desperate overplay their hand.
I have found this to be great advice . . .

Terri Patraw: A Vast And Important Audience
Here are some more messages that people have sent to me of late:
I was just a student there . . . but already I was catching on to how they operated . . . I dropped my classes, never went back. I had gone to college before, but had never quite experienced a group such as these people.
This is why I admire all of you, in sticking together, and bringing out justice not only for yourselves, but the taxpayer. When all of this is over, I expect some heads to roll.
Terri, I read with sadness your story as you are a great coach. Please feel free to e-mail me . . .
I tell everyone to read your blog! I really hope others do too!
Thanks for reporting the real news in Reno. You would never get such interesting and important
information in the RGJ!
The Athletic Department is a mess. But you already knew that. Everything you said is proving to be true! Go Patraw!
You have a big fan club at Arizona State University. There are a lot of people there reading your blog who know Milton Glick's unlawful and retaliatory ways from his days as Provost at ASU. They love that you are shining a bright and truthful light on him! Everyone's rooting for you.

Does Athletic Director Cary Groth Have Behavior Issues?
You can imagine what is has been like for me sitting there watching Nevada Athletic Director Cary Groth lie over and over and over and over. There are days when I had to refrain from laughing out loud in disgust as I sat and watched her lie . . . knowing I could prove it.
After reviewing some of her lies / perjury in several posts below, you may find this quite interesting:
QUESTION: Do you consider lying and committing perjury behavior issues?
ATHLETIC DIRECTOR CARY GROTH: Yes.
The Athletic Director at the University of Nevada, Reno admits under oath that she considers lying and committing perjury behavior issues . . . And Groth has repeatedly lied and committed perjury.

AD Cary Groth ... Yep, You Guessed It ... More Lies!
Athletic Director Cary Groth was made aware (via an email) on June 22nd, 2006 that I had knowledge of NCAA violations in the men's basketball program.
This is Cary Groth's testimony regarding that email:
Groth read that e-mail and she acknowledges that in her deposition.
Groth concedes she did not take the allegations of violations in the email to her Director of Compliance.
Groth also says she did not tell Jean Perry about it because "Jean Perry wasn't hired at the time" (June 22, 2006). Perry oversees the compliance office in the Nevada Athletic Department.
Athletic Director Cary Groth testified under oath that "Jean Perry wasn't hired at the time" (June 22, 2006). If you go back one page to 1829, it proves that Jean Perry was hired five months earlier.
Jean Perry began working in the athletic department on January 1st, 2006.
So that was another lie by Groth in her coverup of NCAA violations.

Terri Patraw: AD Cary Groth Tampered With Witnesses
The following is an example of witness tampering by University of Nevada, Reno Athletic Director Cary Groth, Executive Associate Athletic Director Cindy Fox, and Head Golf Coach Rich Merritt.
Q: "Did Cary Groth ever call you and encourage you to stay out of this lawsuit?"
WITNESS: "Yes, she did."
Q: "Did Cindy Fox?"
WITNESS: "Yes, she did."
Q: "Did Rich Merritt?"
WITNESS: "Yes, he did."
The witness then testified about what AD Cary Groth said to her:
WITNESS: "You are going to want to stay quiet. Keep your mouth shut. Stay quiet, you know, stay out of this because it's going to involve attorneys and to protect your family you don't want to be involved."
Q: "Did anybody ever say to you that Terri wasn't your friend?"
WITNESS: "Yes, Associate AD Cindy Fox. She called my house . . . I pretty much kind of questioned her because Terri and Cindy were so close."
"Cindy said the same thing that Cary said, 'Stay out of it, you know, protect your family. Protect those boys . . . remain quiet. Don't talk to Terri,' those types of things."
Q: "Similar to what Cary Groth said to you?"
WITNESS: "Yes."
Q: "Was Cindy Fox still your supervisor at the time?"
WITNESS: "Yes."
Bribing or intimidating witness to influence testimony is a category C felony; imprisonment in the state prison for a minimum term of not less than 1 year and a maximum term of not more than 5 years.

Falsification Of Academic Credentials At UNR
The following is testimony from a current University of Nevada, Reno professor. He is testifying about another UNR professor falsifying her academic credentials, including fraud and forgery of her dissertation.
A So now we have a person on our faculty. We now know we have this person who has committed fraud and forgery, and she is teaching undergraduate students, has been for years, and she is high and mighty to them about ethics and cheating and you've gotta do everything right because this is how it's done in the real world . . .
A So I wrote a letter of protest about that, because that's a violation of all kinds of internal department policies and rules and procedures. They're all over the code.
I sent that to President Glick; never got a reply.
A This proves that statement to be true.

Terri Patraw: Nevada Supreme Court Delivers Message
CARSON CITY (AP) — The Nevada Supreme Court has approved revisions to the state code of judicial conduct, the first major update in nearly 20 years on how judges should behave.
One major change is that judges will now have an obligation to report misconduct by another judge or lawyer if they have information indicating a “substantial likelihood” of a violation.
Existing rules only required reporting if a judge has knowledge of “known misconduct.”
The new rule also mandates a judge take appropriate action when they believe another judge or lawyer’s performance is impaired by drugs, alcohol or a mental, emotional, or physical condition.
___________________
I know of a judge and a few lawyers who must be very uncomfortable with this new rule.
The Nevada Supreme Court will soon be reviewing the misconduct of the Judge, lawyers (Mary Dugan, Kent Robison, Charles Hilsabeck & John Arrascada), Athletic Director Cary Groth, and President Milton Glick in my case.
One can only imagine what the Supreme Court is going to say about these lawyers' and the judge's misconduct.
The Supreme Court has already reviewed a sampling of the fraud in my case.
Happy New Year!
Terri Patraw: More Unlawful Retaliation
It is important to mention that Athletic Director Cary Groth, President Milton Glick, General Counsel Mary Dugan, and Attorney Kent Robison went to great lengths, and engaged in additional criminal activity, in an attempt to prevent me from testifying at the grand jury proceedings.
They convinced their "friend", Judge Flanagan, to issue an unlawful order outside his jurisdiction that was designed to disrupt my presentation of evidence before Judge Steinheimer. No, Judge's are not allowed to do that!
Judge Steinheimer was so outraged at their retaliatory actions against me in her court room that she shut down the court for 40 minutes.
Their desperate acts to silence me included attorney Robison lying to two district court judges and to the Nevada Supreme Court as well as falsification of evidence by Groth, Glick, Dugan, and Robison.
UNR's Attorney Kent Robison Lacking Ethical Standards?
Attorney Kent Robison is an outside attorney hired by UNR President Milton Glick to represent himself and the university. Apparently Glick has no faith in his legal team of 7+ in-house lawyers led by UNR General Counsel Mary Dugan.
President Glick is leading a university that is now under criminal investigation. Therefore, it should be less than surprising that he has hired a less than ethical lawyer to represent him and the university.
Read here what the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco had to say about Kent Robison:
The Nevada Supreme Court found that "counsel withdrew not because the county denied him compensation, but merely because the county declined to compensate him in advance." In seeking to withdraw from representing a client charged with murder after the trial has started because the county would not advance his expenses, attorney Robison has demonstrated ethical standards that fall far short of responsible professional conduct.
This, of course, is the same Kent Robison who lied to Judge Flanagan, lied to Judge Steinheimer, and then lied to the Nevada Supreme Court regarding matters pertaining to my case. Robison was so exposed in all of these lies that he conceded every one of them to the Nevada Supreme Court. Robison has a pattern and practice of lying throughout my litigation . . . to the media, to judges, to whomever will listen to his slander.
I am going to go out on a limb and bet that Robison was in Indianapolis with Glick, Dugan, and Athletic Director Cary Groth yesterday defending allegations of major violations of NCAA rules in the Nevada Athletic Department. Yep, they were ordered to be there in person by the NCAA.
Dugan needs help doing damage control so I am pretty confident she brought along her partner in crime. The only question is...how many more lies were told by this crew to the NCAA Committee on Infractions? Damage control, led by Dugan and Robison, consists of more fraud to cover the exposed fraud.
