is in the running for the job. I wouldn't be shocked to see Jeff Bower considered. Whoever comes needs to be innovative, creative, and uber-aggressive in fundraising.

Glad hes gone! Made a terrible basketball hire. Football was almost a catastrophe this year. He saw the writing on the wall and had to get out while he still could. Wasnt worth the risk. I predicted he would resign. He just did it a little sooner than i thought. Good for him. Hire Brad Teague.
I would be shocked to learn that the president would consider that, after what transpired during the 2012 football season and during the Donnie Tyndall era.Maybe this time Jeff Hammond will receive serious consideration.
I'm not sure Bower would be the right pick for AD. His loyalty is his biggest attribute, but it's also his biggest liability because I'm not sure he'd hold Hopson accountable for mediocre play and coaching since Hopson was once a member of his staff. No, I'd rather have someone who can not only make smart coaching hires, but is also a fundraiser.
We need to finally get the long promised (by two different ADs!) and still not delivered overhaul of Reed Green done. We may never be truly considered for another conference as long as we keep talking about a major overhaul of Reed Green but never fully make those plans a reality. There's been two different plans for major renovations in the last 13.5 years and all we've got to show for it is the new wing that houses the basketball offices and locker rooms. I'm not sure the renovation plans McGillis put together will come to fruition now that he's leaving.
We also need more money to grow our athletic budget (it's only going to get tighter as our tv revenue continues to shrink).
I just don't have confidence that Bower is up to those tasks.
Our athletic department is a dumpster fire right now. No money, zilch. He probably saw the writing on the wall. Basketball is done, next season football will be done and baseball has become a damn crap shoot. We are in a dumpster fire of a conference with no way out. It's a damn lost cause in my opinion with no viable options.
sure....all that takes MONEY. WE HAVE NONE. The AD knows it, Bower knows it, I know it...etc etc. Can't squeeze blood from a turnip. It's over.
What rock did you just come out from under?pc has nothing to do with it. what does have something to do with it is ptsd. and that nut has it in spades.he is bat shit crazy.
Then Bower could do the ribbon cutting on his academic centeris in the running for the job. I wouldn't be shocked to see Jeff Bower considered. Whoever comes needs to be innovative, creative, and uber-aggressive in fundraising.
I think that would be smart. We need south miss connectionsomething for sure. He is from bay st Louis I believe?Jay Artigues from Southeastern Louisiana. Solid go getter type guy that has made unbelievable upgrades at SELA the last few years. Ties to this area from his days as HC for PRCC baseball.
Anybody heard any names swirling around? I may alone on this one but I don't want some young up and comer who will leave in 3 years as soon as we have a successful year. I want a guy who will work his butt off, is charismatic, and who can sale a popsicle to an Eskimo. Artigues is still my choice but the only one I really know of just from following sports from around this area.
Getting someone who's not an up and comer who will work their butt off and is charismatic is near impossible. Even if they aren't young, those personalities move up. That's just fact.
