I'm glad you're interested. I can see this playing out in ways where Bill has to handle insuring support from his collegues and deal with the local opposition. Also, something like this would serve as a way for Bill to try to maintain or gain more influence over lower-class voters in the area. While he would want something like this to succeed, if the media creates a buzz about it regardless, he'd take it as a win.

On the subject of Michael, Bill would initially be reluctant to use him against Matthew out of respect for the student because he feels it wrong to drag a misguided youth into negative public spotlight. However, as the conflict might grow damaging for Bill or he starts to lose leverage, he would definantly stoop down and try to hurt Matthew's image with him as an example along with whatever else he could dig up on the family.

Another thing that would tie into this would be the fact that some of the wealthy residents at Bullworth fund select student's tuition and they would see Bill's efforts as not only intrusive but as an attack on their system of controlling the acedemy.

Matthew and Bill could pay one another a visit at some points to try and intimidate each other to accept defeat or offer compromise but I could see the two only becoming much more competive rivals after each encounter.
