You are being selective in your hearing. It's widely known on campus, and in the AD that Dooley is a grade A, #1 @$$hole.
Office people are not allowed to speak to him, issues with paint color in his office, compliments on his hair....the stories abound by those who work near him, and I know a couple.
I liked the guy, and was an apologist until the Akron game. I knew these stories, but they really didn't bother me because I liked Dooley's public persona, and the clean image he fostered for our program.
None of that changes what primadonna he is in person...by every account a tyrant. That is why he won't be retained in any capacity by this University.
