Athletic Director Search Committee

[MetryCajun]

I received another red dot from having made the comment that I don't care about receiving red dots. This person is challenging me to not make a comment about them giving me red dots... or they'll give me more red dots. Hilarious. They just do not know me very well.

You should pen one of your 10,000 word essays. That will show 'em!!

Anyone that doesn't think any of the finalist would have been a good hire are simply acting like the Democrats in Congress. _____ing about anything and everything done by the administration, even before anything happens.

I'm looking forward to seeing what the new sheriff in town will be able to do to move Louisiana Athletics forward!

Alden is a mizzou guy who hired a mizzou guy, allegedly at this point. I am not gonna throw up a red flag yet and call this the "good ole boy network north". But if our next head ft ball coach is an assistant from the very mediocre mizzou tigers I will be very concerned that t Joe wasted a bunch of money.

My thoughts also. Not saying this guy is not great. It just looks like an inside hire from an outsider.

Duggie, you have been on this site long enough to know that there will be some ______in' based on previous announcements. If there were not I would be shocked.

Apparently the committees and TJoe didn't think so....

Dave Matter is the truth.

I like the hire! If this guy has the connections that Alden has, especially with big companies nationally, then this could be a huge advantage that we just gained.

So a man who has probably never set foot in this city before the interview is an inside hire? So the guy we hired to consult should have had anyone he knows taken off the list immediately? No way this guy can be competent and a good AD right...he knows mike Alden. How long will Mike Alden be in the consulting business if he goes around putting his incompetent proteges in positions of power? The man is in this for business too.

What is the over-under on the date of the first "fire Maggard" thread.

Ironically, Terry Don Phillips came to us from Missouri as well.
