Message: [QUOTE="Crusty, post: 1559835, member: 2265"] There are basically two styles for an AD here. One is to do the search firm, search committee route to make everybody feel good and the other is to present a candidate of your choice to the BOT. A lot depends on the AD's style and authority. The latter is a politically risky move. Boise State used a search firm and search committee, which is probably what SU will do. However, there is always the possibility that when Coyle was hired he got assurances that he could pick his guy. We should know shortly. All that said, a smart AD can engineer his choice is he is deft politically. He can kill or add candidates with the search firm or engineer the criteria to narrow the field. We are going to learn al lot abut the new leaders at SU when this search unfolds. [/QUOTE]
