FYI - I hear there’s a great divorcee night at the Marriott Fairbanks

My new qualifications for SU Insider Info legitimacy:

I qualify.

 

[oldpinepoint]

I've gotten shitty in all 50 states. I think.

Have you taken a dump in all 50 states, that’s more impressive

 

[BigNastyJon]

Hold on. Let me count them up. Might take a sec.

Sounds more like an IBS problem to me...

FWIW, I've been told differently ...

Hodgson’s job if he wants it? How confident are you feeling? Seems so good to be true lol

I think it's too early to say it's Hodgson's job if he wants it, so to speak, but he will be heavily considered, from what I'm being told.

So you're saying it's Gerry's job even if he refuses. Wild times.

Absolutely untrue
McNamara's job if he wants it... absolutely untrue.
Jay Wright's job if he wants it.... absolutely untrue

But will you be 'absolutely stunned' if he doesn't get it?

Since Bryan Blair arrived in Toledo, basketball has had the same coach and records of:

22-23 27-8
23-24 20-12
24-25 18-15
25-26 17-14

While correlation is not causation, Toledo's recent basketball decline has been overseen by Bryan Blair.

Things that make you say, "hmmm."

Oof. I do wonder how he sold himself on getting this job.

Is Schertz being considered at all?

More of a Wawa man myself, but sure I'd consider it.

Bryan B. Blair Named Syracuse University Director of Athletics - Syracuse University Athletics

A new era of Orange Athletics begins as Syracuse welcomes one of college athletics' rising leaders—a proven champion with a record of transformative program-...

His bullet point list of accomplishments at Toledo... not gonna lie... sounds impressive.

Can he bring the NIL?? Here's hoping...

Looks like a rock SOLID on paper.

Quite pleased with the hire, especially with rumors swirling on who was attempted to be square-pegged into this hole...

Interesting Tidbit: No mention of the bball HC open position in the announcement...

I have

Buc-ees all day long.

Going to the title of this thread (the AD), I care less about how much money he raises (though important) and more whether he selects good coaches.
