Case study Decision

Coach Dodge, a man of major spotlight for more than a year now, is my choice for my case study. I have a partner I'm working on this with. I think it will be a good case study to do because I already know a little bit about his story and what I think his tipping point was. I think the football program scandal, accusing Dodge and his fellow coaches of racism/favoritism, shined a negative light on Dodge and his team. It would not have been so bad if the team was excelling on the field but Dodge didn't live up to all the hype that surrounded his arrival to UNT. So with a high paid salary and a strong reputation Dodge should have been on his a game, winning sunbelt conferences and building a legacy of football family instead, the scale tipped and the media is very unforgiving. They began to question his worth. There were articles derived from the allegations; most of Dodge's players defended him, stating they are all like family and the accusers were not accepting responsibility for their actions. I am half way excited to be working on this case study. At first I was concerned on my topic and layout but not I feel more confident.
