Hope he is getting paid well because that is a totally thankless job

Hopefully it cannot get much lower. At least it’s not another former commissioner of the SEC.

The only thing I remember about his speech at my college graduation was protestors against him getting thrown out of McGuirk Stadium

Pretty sure Mark E made $3m a year base salary.

Not enough for the BS he had to put up with if you ask me

 

[llandz]

Can he give Boeheim his wins back since Emmert was not going to do it...

Interesting hire……

 

[Symphony Steve]

Interesting hire……

Kinda Goodell-esque.

Not encouraging, but it's not like anyone was likely banging down the doors for the job...

 

[Sudano]

After further consideration...he just entered the transfer portal

The guy is an empty-suit, feckless boob. Besides that, he "has not worked in sports in any capacity". The NCAA is a mess, and this guy will do nothing to make it better, only worse.

Out of curiosity, if SU said JAB had 1100+ wins, what could the NCAA even do? Paying players off and fake classes are fine but don't ever admit a true fact by "rewriting" history?

I'm surprised the NCAA didn't want Sepp Blatter to take the job...
