He fired Saban and Pinkel's DC and his two FB hires both got P5 jobs even if they were Illinois and Iowa State.

This is very encouraging.

Something's not right with that guy's hair.

Pete · « **Reply #453 on:** April 13, 2017, 06:29:55 PM »

Hair piece? If so, I strongly vote no on this guy.

Sounds like they'll announce him tomorrow.

I am mad. But I am in wait and see mode because might as well let the avalanche of decisions bury us in information rather than speculate as to whether or not this guy is as weird/stupid as he looks.

He's 64 years old.

If he were a partner in a law firm, accounting firm, or brokerage, he would have been forced to retire two years ago.

So they must be choosing this guy to be the guy to choose the next football coach, because they like his track record of having hired two guys who were plucked for better jobs right? That is a positive mark, but I mean, that's the only thing I can come up with.

Pete · « **Reply #459 on:** April 13, 2017, 07:05:29 PM »

So, we are hiring the 6th highest paid AD in the MAC. Who is 64 years old. WTF?

Pete · « **Reply #460 on:** April 13, 2017, 07:07:32 PM »

Can you image Mike O'Brian trying to explain to his friends and family how he lucked sacked into this job?

He has probably spent the last 24 hours saying "I KNOW RIGHT?!?!?" on about 20 different phone calls.

"I mean, Christ, I just applied as a 'what the eff' thing...we were all laughing about it 'ya, apply for the K-State job, LOL." Smh

Dr Rick Daris · « **Reply #462 on:** April 13, 2017, 07:19:11 PM »

For the record....

I'm only 85% sure that we are announcing tomorrow and only 75% sure it's this guy. In addition to those percentages, I'm somewhere around 80% sure that's it's Myers (75), snyder (77) and wefald (79) calling the shots. so should we really be surprised if they want to hire a 64 year old that both Snyder and wefald have history with? I mean, we shouldn't.

Pete · « **Reply #463 on:** April 13, 2017, 07:26:12 PM »

I would sure feel a lot better about it if they just said "relax everyone. The new guy won't be allowed to touch football and basketball."

Pete · « **Reply #464 on:** April 13, 2017, 07:27:30 PM »

We may have just landed ourselves the greatest tennis court builder in Toledo college history.

I hate to break this to you but we are probably hiring this guy and this guy is probably going to hire 60 year old Jim leavitt.

Manhattan is a great place to retire.

The Big Train · « **Reply #467 on:** April 13, 2017, 07:34:28 PM »

He kind of looks like an older more hair rescinded oscar

Pete · « **Reply #468 on:** April 13, 2017, 07:35:53 PM »

I will be OK with the Leavitt thing if this mother rough rider has the balls to make basketball great again.

Bjork still hasn't tweeted, I'm now following him, he's the guy.
