There are some really bad people at the University right now that need to go.   

              I really admire Terri for standing up to them.

A.D. Cary Groth's Signature Authority Revoked?

A whole lot of people are saying the same thing...nobody is denying it...and, UNR appears to confirm....

That Athletic Director Cary Groth has had her signature authority on financial matters in Nevada Athletics revoked by the University President.

This information has been passed on by sources over the past several weeks.

Bruce Shively, Associate Vice President of Planning, Budget, and Analysis, was confronted about this "rumor" and did not deny it.

Sure enough, UNR updated its "
Signature Authority List" on August 3, 2011. Lo and behold, the athletics department reads as follows:

                    ATHLETICS (ICA)
                Marc Johnson, President
                Cary Groth GIA/LOA/EVAL

Notably, Athletics is the only department on campus (other than the President's Office) that has the President listed as the signature authority.

Additionally, Groth is the only department head with limitations listed next to her name.

The abbreviations next to Groth's name stand for: Grant-In-Aid (athletic scholarships), Letter of Appointment (temporary hires), and Evaluations (personnel evaluations).

So, according to this public document, Groth is only allowed to sign on scholarship offers, temporary hires, and personnel evaluations!

A critical aspect of a Division I Athletic Director's job is to manage the department's budget. Yet, Groth has had her authority revoked on Nevada Athletics finances?

What exactly is Groth's job if she is not trusted with oversight of finances in the department?

Managing winning programs is not part of her job description.

For those keeping score, Nevada's fall sports (volleyball, soccer, and football) had another very-Cary Groth-like weekend . . . going 1-4. 

Oversight of NCAA compliance is not part of her job description.

So President Johnson, how is this fraud of an A.D. still employed in your administration?

Nevada A.D. Cary Groth Can Be Fired For Cause

University of Tennessee head basketball coach Bruce Pearl was recently fired

As ESPN reporter, Jay Bilas, said, "Pearl crossed a line when he lied to the NCAA".

Nevada Athletic Director Cary Groth has to be paying close attention to this story!

Tennessee fired their highly successful coach (and rightly so), yet President Glick gave Groth a contract extension despite his knowledge that she engaged in the 
same exact behavior.

Psst...the contract extension, given last year, isn't worth the paper it is written on. Groth can be fired for cause at anytime.

More Stalking Behavior By Athletic Director Cary Groth

One day we were asked to meet with employees of the RGJ to discuss Athletic Director Cary Groth.  They had explained that they planned to print an honest portrayal of Groth.

Apparently what we shared with them was too much for them to stomach.   They never printed it.   Hmmm . . . maybe 
Ted Power was behind the blackout.

Anyway, the more interesting part of the story was that shortly after we left the RGJ building, our cell phone rang.  It was someone we had only met on one other occasion.  

This person said that they wanted to let us know that Groth "knew you were just at the RGJ".   They said she called 15 minutes after we left there to do damage control.

The person on the phone was noticeably rattled that Groth was keeping such close tabs on my whereabouts.  We said this demonstrates just how much Groth has to hide.

Athletic Director Cary Groth Commits Despicable Perjury

Athletic Director Groth testified under oath in two separate depositions that she "showed" a June 22, 2006, email containing reports of NCAA violations in the Nevada men’s basketball program to Faculty Athletic Representative (FAR) Dr. Chris Exline so he could commence an investigation. 

Groth further stated that she "had a conversation" with Exline about the email.


However, Dr. Exline had passed away on April 11, 2006, two months before the existence of the June 22, 2006 email.

Not only did Groth lie, she placed blame for a lack of investigation into the allegations on an innocent man who is unable to defend himself.

Dispicable Leadership Under Athletic Director Cary Groth

Chuck Wynne, of the NCAA, said . . . "We’re all about student-athlete well-being" . . . 

At the University of Nevada, Reno, however, the administration attempts to "use" student-athletes to cover up their corruption.
       
Then interim Coach Antoinette Marjanovic conspired with Executive Associate Athletic Director Cindy Fox to solicit manufactured evidence from student-athletes:
 
    

I [student-athlete’s name redacted] was contacted by an athletic department employee, Antoinette Marjanovic. She asked me if I would send in a written complaint about [our coach].  Marjanovic said that Cindy Fox stopped in her office and said if you can get the student athletes to write complaints that [our coach's] presence makes them uncomfortable we can use those statements to get her banned from campus.



So much for student-athlete well being . . .

"The Morally Corrupt Cary Groth"

Note from a reader:

Can you please explain how the morally corrupt Cary Groth still has a job?????????

Athletic Director Cary Groth Violated Her Employment Contract

In March of 2009, the whistleblower decision was remanded on appeal after presentation of evidence of perjury, falsification of evidence, and concealment of documents by Athletic Director Cary Groth, General Counsel Mary Dugan and Attorney Kent Robison.

Yet, despite full knowledge of Groth
s criminal acts (felonies), President Glick rewarded her with a 3-year contract extension in September.

Groth
s contract has moral turpitude and ethical standards clauses (section 4.03.b) that have been ignored by the University President with no regard for the consequence to the university, the athletic program, and the student-athletes.

Athletic Director Cary Groth Lies To Donors, Judges, Others

We recently reviewed minutes from the AAUN (athletic department donors) meetings. The minutes revealed that Cary Groth lies to the donors too. Unbelievable.

It is stunning that the Athletic Director would lie to a group of people who are voluntarily donating their time, energy, and money to the Nevada Athletic Department. She is a sad role model for the student-athletes.

Groth also told these same donors that the university won the whistleblower hearing. However, she failed to tell them that the whistleblower decision was remanded on appeal due to her perjury, falsification of evidence, and concealment of documents.

She also failed to tell them that the hearing officer was suspended for his misconduct in that case.  So much for operating with transparency.

After 2+ years of witnessing A.D. Groth lie under oath, lie in affidavits, lie to the media, lie to donors, lie to judges, and lie to "others", we were compelled to do research on
liars.

Groth's behavioral issues meet the published criteria of both a pathological and compulsive liar.

So much for honesty and integrity in athletics! 

AD Cary Groth Commits Perjury - NCAA Violation Cover Up

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:

ATTORNEY KENT ROBISON: .... did you become aware later that [Coach] accepted money in exchange for not reporting [Assistant Basketball Coach] to the NCAA?

CARY GROTH: I did.

ROBISON: Is that violative of the role of a coach at the University of Nevada, Reno?

GROTH: It is a coach's responsibility to inform us of any potential NCAA violations.


Groth and Robison know that this coach NEVER accepted any money from an Assistant Basketball Coach in exchange for not reporting NCAA violations. 

There is absolute proof of this.  The Assistant Basketball Coach has also stated that this is a lie by Groth.

So why would Groth lie about this? Because she covered up NCAA violations in the basketball program and subsequently violated her role as Nevada's Athletic Director.

Psst: We can only hope that Dr. Jean Perry 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 lack of leadership that has the University under investigation by the NCAA.
