As I said, enough bad decisions and they gone. Never said they would be poor. Quote

In my opinion she has provided a number of interesting tidbits but many have blasted her as if she is defending the current status quo when in fact she has been describing what is going on as opposed to saying the current situation is acceptable.

I personally don't give a darn. But, every meeting has a scribe assigned. Not a lawyer, just a guy that hates public firms, politicians,etc, hiding/withholding information from the tax paying public. And the way you explained it, confirms the distrust. Didn't mean for my reply to be a lecture and I'm sorry you took it that way. J34 and RaceToTheTop 2 Quote

Never once did I defend any of it but I did, on multiple occasions, attempt to explain to you how the process works. Your frustration is rooted in your disagreement with the process and / or your inability to understand how and why it exists, as well as the fact that it hasn’t produced the outcome you desire. It’s why I cautioned you to not conflate an explanation with a defense, which you continue to mistakenly do. Schreckbagger 1 Quote

Everything you've posted is vague at best, you're like a fortune teller warning people to be safe around the water. Yeah, you've had some points, but overall, nothing that couldn't be extrapolated (see, I can use big words too) from general knowledge.

I gotta tell ya’ I’m at a loss as to why it exists given the horrendous results it produces. Do why don’t you start there: Given the poor results from said process, why does it continue to exist?

Last I remember, the BoT is a voted on position. So, if you're an alumni, you voted them in. Same accountability as government.

NashvilleHoosier Posted March 28, 2024 Posted March 28, 2024 I'm sure I already know the answer to this, but has this ship completely sailed? It seems the recruiting fire has been ignited to some degree. Doesn't appear there's been any movement with McNeeley yet. Is there any chance the message can be flipped, show who we're in on in the portal and how that will change our offense, and that we have a fresh stockpile of cash with his name on it? Quote
