Message: [QUOTE="pfister1, post: 2133855, member: 285"] I am really skeptical about us getting a decent assistant in here unless he is a younger guy and is clearly placed in the position of top assistant. Anyone considering the job has to be wondering how much time they'll have here before JB retires and they are looking for their next gig. If it only ends up being a year or two that is not much of an addition to the resume for a more established assistant. You can trumpet that JB just got a 5 year extension all day long, but that doesn't mean that potential assistants are going to be certain that he (and they) will be here that long. I think it's going to be a tough position to hire into. We are also probably going to see Autry out on the market. There is no way that he will be considered for the head job when JB steps aside and with Hop moving on he probably won't have a place here at SU when JB retires. [/QUOTE]
