Nevada Tennis Coach Escapes Groth's Corrupt Leadership
The Head Women's Tennis Coach resigned from Nevada to accept the same position at San Jose State. Curiously Nevada did not announce this on their website nor did they release it to the media. Why?
One would venture a guess that Nevada Athletic Director Cary Groth does not want to let the community know that a coach is essentially accepting a demotion to escape her gross mismanagement (i.e. corruption).
While San Jose State is currently in the same conference as Nevada, this move appears to be a step backward for a couple of reasons:
1) Nevada is currently a much more successful tennis program than San Jose State; and 2) Nevada is moving into the substantially better Mountain West Conference next season while San Jose State is remaining in what will be a dramatically weakened Western Athletic Conference.
For the record, this coach would not shy away from competition. He came to Nevada from the ACC and did a good job elevating Nevada's program.
Who does Nevada hire to replace him? Well, Groth's long-time domestic partner, Laura Scott, was the Head Tennis Coach at Northern Illinois University under Groth.
Scott is currently working as an academic advisor in Groth's athletic department at Nevada. We discussed this previously in "Corrupt Hiring Practices in Nevada Athletics?"
Will President Johnson let Groth hire Scott wants back into coaching?
Johnson knows Groth's tenure is coming to an end. If he is smart he does not let her have any say in who the next tennis coach is.
Groth's inability to hire successful coaches is well documented in undeniable facts. See "Nevada Athletic Director Cary Groth's Report Card: F" a handful of posts below.
