Message: [QUOTE="Full_Rebar, post: 1039277, member: 3530"] I know I'm in the minority here, but I think SU can do better than Gross when the time comes. He was the right guy to bring SU into the modern era of D1 Athletics, and despite the fact it hamstrings football, he invested in the Olympic sports to raise their level. However, he has put the Ath Dept in a difficult financial position and his response seems to be hiring more Sr. Exec Assoc AD's to travel with football and hoops. As that DO article last week said, a lot of teams are dealing with less than ideal facilities, and I've repeatedly stated my case that football needs more non-coaching support staff members to stay competitive with the P5 schools. I trust the next AD will have a better development plan, a much better marketing plan in terms of improving football attendance, and practice a bit more fiscal restraint. [/QUOTE]
