Message: [QUOTE="Zelda Zonk, post: 4151323, member: 966"] What is it that SU does? I may be off, but what sport serves as the model or illustration for what SU does? Women's basketball—wasn't Hillsman from the outside? With football, Babers is from the outside. Previously, some coaches had been on the football staff, but didn't they also come from the outside and weren't alums? I'm not sure what SU men did 47 years ago is enough to serve as a valid precedent. It's both nice and unfortunate that all of our staff is comprised of alums. That makes for a nice continuity run, but when the recent history isn't impressive, continuity isn't as valuable. I'd be surprised, also, if it's not Red or GMac. Because, while it's difficult to force JAB to retire, it's almost equally unpalatable to 'fire' an entire staff of loyal alums. That's kind of an ugly look. I would welcome a clean slate, but i'd also feel mighty bad about that kind of changeover. [/QUOTE]
