The days of promoting a cherished and beloved coach to athletic director are about to be over. The business side of athletics has morphed the athletic director's position into much more than glad-handing supporters, raising money and making schedules. Experience in marketing, TV rights, production of athletic events, logistics, licensing, branding, etc. on a multi-million dollar scale is a must.

Bingo. Robe is an excellent baseball coach/ mentor but I'm struggling with the thought that some have in that translating to more of a business management role.

I'd vote for you as a liaison to the university in charge of Fashion.

Melrock: Secretary of Fashion

Hud is not on the committee. SPECULATE! SPECULATE! SPECULATE!

Ok....maybe its because he is kind of busy coaching a football team at the moment?

Except I'm pretty sure he doesn't want two jobs as he has no intention of leaving coaching.

He said Wednesday he does not want to be athletic director period. He would like to slide over into an associate athletic director baseball position where he could continue to help raise money and build a national program. But after he wins a national championship. His words, not mine.

One bad (good) thing about MelRock as AD is that half the athletic budget would be dedicated to finding the latest and best whiskey/bourbon.

We can never have too much good whiskey/bourbon. As we tasted last Saturday, Red Handed Bourbon out of Austin, TX is my new go to bourbon.
