this is not a rumor, this was in the paper yesterday

The LHSAA executive committee will vote to buy out the contract of Executive Director Eddie Bonine at its July 25 special session meeting, four sources familiar with the situation confirmed to The Daily Advertiser. The LHSAA sent an email Tuesday scheduling the special session.
A buyout would have to be approved by a majority of the LHSAA Executive Committee in a vote Monday. There are 25 members of the LHSAA's executive committee; only a simple majority is needed to approve the buyout.
While sources confirmed the desire for a buyout vote to take place Monday, it is not clear if the faction attempting to complete the buyout has enough votes to complete the process.
Bonine was introduced in December 2014 as the LHSAA's executive director and signed a four-year contract with the association. If Bonine is indeed bought out Monday, he will become the second executive director ousted by the LHSAA in the past two years following the early departure of former Executive Director Kenny Henderson.
The removal of Henderson was "mutually agreed" upon by the two parties. The LHSAA had to pay out the remaining dollars left on Henderson's contract. Frustration with Bonine has been building within the state over his handling of the select/non-select split.
Many of the principals in favor of the split have expressed concern that Bonine has opposed the split, rather than doing the bidding of the general assembly.
Bonine declared the split unconstitutional before the January principal's meeting, only to watch the principals of the state deepen the split to include basketball, baseball and softball, as well as football, in the general assembly vote in January.
