Scully did not push Jobs out. The Apple board recruited Scully from Pepsi Cola. They made a mistake but as history sometimes corrects things forcing Jobs out is responsible for him starting NEXT computers which provided the core for OSX and for his success at Pixar.

Credit to Jobs for being smart and an excellent marketer too.
