OT: When Looking to Get Promoted...

Make sure that your resume is truthful.

Steve Masiello, after his run this year with Manhattan had agreed in principle with South Florida to become their new coach. But after a little background check, it turns out that Masiello never completed his degree from pUKe. Now the South Florida deal is off and he's been put on leave from Manhattan until he can review his degree status at pUKe.  :laugh:

Today I was talking basketball on the way to the time clock with a U of L fan. We were trashing on UK, when I heard my boss say something. I asked him, "You're not one of those inbreds are you?" And yes he was. Way to go jackass.

There are some things you can get away with.  You can dress up past experience to a certain degree.  But when it comes to actual degrees and things like that, yeah that does not turn out well.

Not to be your boss in the near future... ;)

Wasn't there another coach not too long ago who kind of came into question for his degree?

Yes, Eddie Jordan at Rutgers.

Yes, Eddie Jordan at Rutgers.

Also didn't the diving coach have his degree come into question?

I was planning on putting that I was the president of the United States at the age of 10 on mine. Hopefully no one figures out it isn't right
