AD Bryan Blair Presser / Thurs 10 AM

[llandz]

Let's talk about Haynie for a moment.

Sounds all in on athletics

I love how he joked about everyone coming up to him at Wegman's, the dentist, etc. to give their thoughts on the athletic director. Puts him in the community as a regular guy. I feel he is approachable.

 

[Dcuse]

That did not sound like a guy who wants to hire Gerry.

What? Did I miss something he said that would illicit your response?

 

[Franz69]

What? Did I miss something he said that would illicit your response?

Not stuck in the past and just being ok with tradition. Wants to move forward.

If I had to guess people are reaching for his “outside the box comment” to allude to Gerry not a candidate.

 

[Dcuse]

Talk is cheap I need action!

Wow, no win situation today I guess.

 

[llandz]

Good call, stream didn’t end.

Meaning? I don't have anything on that steam.

It ran on the black screen for awhile, assumed it would pick back up for Q&A. But then it did finally end. Disappointing to not have the media Q&A on there.

 

[Dcuse]

Reaching is an understatement. Hope he’s ready for the “ There are some people you will NEVER please” culture that we have here.

 

[llandz]

Maybe they will post a link to it later on. Either way we will obviously read about it.

 

[rocfan44]

I took this as a response to our position on NIL not so much coaching candidacy.

 

[PAcuse]

Anyone else get distracted by Ballentines nose sniffing...No just me ok lol
Love the new AD already

very much agree. he comes across as so much more relatable than Kent. Loved the fact that Haynie didnt want to live in the Chancellor's residence either.

I've heard he's very direct and to the point. Seems like someone who should do well as a leader in the community, which we need.

 

[Norman Dale]

Maybe GMac as head coach and Hopkins as assistant head coach. Now that would be outside the box.

I just think that BBB wants things done the way they need to be done now, not the way they had been done for years.

In other words:

If you wake up and don't want to smile
If it takes just a little while
Open your eyes and look at the day
You'll see things in a different way
Don't stop thinking about tomorrow
Don't stop, it'll soon be here
It'll be better than before
Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone
Why not think about times to come?
And not about the things that you've done
If your life was bad to you
Just think what tomorrow will do

 

[Scott11]

I'm relieved that they spelled his jersey correctly.

 

[IthacaBarrel]

Blair is a pro. Nice opening press conference for sure

He's shopping at the Regional Market nearly every weekend - nobody recognizes him but I don't see Kent mingling like that.

kent didnt live in the chancellors house either the past few years. too accessible for students.

hah really? he didnt want to deal with protesters or? well from the outside, haynie made it look like a good thing but i guess there's more to it.

 

[OrlandoCuse]

Exceptionally articulate, passionate man with a vision. I love what I see so far!

The best way to live life is moment by moment, yesterday is over and tomorrow might never come. So enjoy the moment you are in to the fullest extent you can.

He said home court before home field.

Lacrosse hater

If no one wants to live there, can they just make it accessible for me and my group when we go to games?

We'll take good care of it. I promise.
