Ten days before Mike Bohn was introduced at USC, a pair of investigations were underway at Cincinnati. One alleged 'discriminatory and other professional misconduct' against him. The other looked at 'the climate and culture of the athletics department.'
after Bohn’s own departure.) Combined with stagnated fundraising for capital projects, it put a strain on the relationship between Bohn and president Neville Pinto, according to university sources.
Swann resigned in September 2019 after his own embattled, three-year term as AD. USC hired Turnkey Search, which said“Mike Bohn was selected because of his integrity, his NCAA student-athlete focus and his people skills,” Turnkey’s Len Perna said then. “President Folt was looking for a people person with strong interpersonal skills for building engagement, followership and galvanizing the USC community.
The investigation described a series of racially insensitive remarks made by Bohn, including Bohn telling Hatcher “I’d be careful with diverse pools” in regard to Hatcher hiring for a development position in the fall of 2018. In another instance, when Hatcher complained about the lack of minorities being promoted, Bohn told Stephen Rosfeld, a White male employee and vice president of development for the university’s foundation, that Hatcher “pulled the race card.
Though the findings were finalized after Bohn departed for USC, there was at least one notice letter that would have been attainable via the Freedom of Information Act prior to Bohn’s hire. On Aug. 17, 2017, a Title IX Investigator at Cincinnati filed a notice letter detailing a complaint from Kim McGraw, a former associate AD and senior accountant for Bearcats athletics.
Bohn’s 25-year CV was littered with major projects and initiatives he successfully pressed the flesh for as AD; he was known for his ability to rally a group with his energy and passion, whether it was a crowd of fans, a banquet hall of boosters or a boardroom of trustees, his larger-than-life persona cranked to full blast. But the coronavirus pandemic — which struck five months after he came to USC — limited those in-person opportunities.
Papadakis had a memorable first meeting with Bohn when he was working the USC-Cal game as an analyst for Fox Sports a few weeks after Bohn took the job in 2019. Papadakis was on the field pre-game talking to former teammates Keary Colbert and Lenny Vandermade.
