First off I am ecstatic that NU finally addressed the elephant in the room. On further review, NU needs to ensure the new AD is set up for success (shocking I know). So new person is brought in, old AD is still "there", (in some bs role) and the folks he hired are still there for all intensive purposes. You can have a weird dynamic in the folks that reported to old guy and new AD. Please note I have not heard much praise about Gragg's hires, so who knows if there will be a purge or just leave on their own. It will be interesting how NU walks this tightrope and builds the department back to respectability.
Side note, how awkward is it to have your old AD basically demoted and and still hanging around? I get the reasoning, but still can lead to unintended consequences.
