Wildhack retires today

[Cusefan69]

Thx Bees and Richmond...makes sense. I have worked at different companies and seen committees operate both ways. I have seen exec's willing to go through process and still push "their preferred ". Seems like a nice mix on the committee. It will be interesting to see how it plays out. I like Tirico being in that group. Now if Haynie is Chancellor in waiting, would he be a final interviewer with the ADs? Presumably it would narrow down to two candidates. Appreciate your prior responses.

There’s no way this committee does any worse than a combination of Cantor - Gross.

That’s why I was elated not to see either Spencer-Stuart and Jed Hughes named.

Amen to that. Horrible hires.

No one was forced to install chair back seating, build the Victory court, install a massively upgraded video board and sound system, install a state of the art lighting system, etc.

It’s ok to simply admit you’re wrong.

ok. Their hand was forced for the roof. That’s like 90% of the Dome Renovation cost. SU made some nice additions to the Dome for people that care about cup holders, seatbacks, trash sound systems and a lighting system.

I myself care about watching good basketball and football and I could care less about the other crap. Apparently more people agree with me since attendance sucks and we have all these great bells and whistles.

Well it's not all about you. lol

I never said it was. I said apparently fans agree with me because attendance sucks. Maybe you missed that last sentence in your haste to make a smart arse reply.

Are we going to see you guys in a boxing ring?

You do realize that college football and college basketball attendance has been declining for years, right? It's not just an SU thing.

What is going on here is more than the national decline it college sports attendance. If it wasn’t we would still be first or second in attendance nationally in basketball.

I also think it’s more than win loss record. We are unwatchable in basketball (again). We were unwatchable in football (again). I can handle losses and even lack of talent to some extent but I can’t watch an undisciplined crap shoot. Unfortunately that has been both football and basketball most years.

You are the only person I've heard that doesn't like the renovations because of the...cup holders... which it doesn't even have!?. And you lied about the Dome reno's being a requirement for acceptance into the ACC.

I'll take being a smart arse over being disingenuous

I lied? I was wrong. Big difference wise guy.

The point was that the Dome renovation was already in the planing process when JW took over.
