This is crazy to me that extramarital affairs are really a fireable offense. This is college football, not seminary.
It is a ****ty thing to do and they absolutely deserve it, don't get me wrong, but I feel like the wives should be able to go after the co-eds in civil court. *****s.

Moore slept with a staffer who was not on the same strata as him, if he slept with a professor or a department head it would have been fine-ish. Universities are worried about litigation from power-imbalances, and it seems there was an obvious quid pro quo when she got a 2x salary increase.
Smith slept with a student. Most colleges have a strict rule not to allow staff to date
undergrad students.
While most people have no problem with "Jennifer Sophomore" getting a twinkle in her eye over the 28yo librarian "Kevin," "Kevin" did agree to the terms of his employment. Regardless of any impact a librarian would have on her academic performance.
