I find support of status quo in certain situations is decidely more divisive.You start referring to staff as “Lilly white”, it shows an agenda. A divisive one at that.
withdrew all money donated to ISU, sports and otherwise. Will use money for the police funds.Larry is/was a great guy but was never right for the position. He had no vision, no energy and really no desire for this dept to improve, hence his fundraising (such as it was) was never going to amount to much. Hopefully, Illinois State goes outside to find their next hire and brings in someone who can change the culture of mediocrity in this dept and stop those in Hovey Hall treating it as an afterthought.
The Police are getting back together??withdrew all money donated to ISU, sports and otherwise. Will use money for the police funds.
I asked Quinn for refund on my RBF.net membership and he quickly reminded me that I signed the no refunds waiver when I signed up! hahahaThe Police are getting back together??
FWIW, will you be cancelling your RBF.net membership, too?
The Police will only be making a comeback if Mark sponsors them. If he cancels his RBF.net membership Quinn might have to fold up this tent.The Police are getting back together??

Dammit, once my wife hears about this I'll have to go see them. Those tickets are going to be crazy expensive.withdrew all money donated to ISU, sports and otherwise. Will use money for the police funds.
Ok, Lyons needs to be replaced. Does anyone know of any specific potential candidates?
I babbled some on a different thread about the "kind of candidate" we'd wish for - football background? Fund raising background? Assistant AD at a P5 school or from one of our peers or from the MAC? Etc. Somebody said "yes" to all!Ok, Lyons needs to be replaced. Does anyone know of any specific potential candidates?
You think he'd be willing to leave that much money on the table??First I feel like an external hire is 100% the way to go for this. However, this was talked about previously, but I kinda like the idea of Muller going into the AD role. He loves ISU, is personable, and respected throughout the league. I'm sure he loves basketball too much to step away during the "prime of his career," but if we look internal, he could be a strong candidate.
Nope!You think he'd be willing to leave that much money on the table??
I don't know, I'm not sure Coach Dan is the man for the AD role. He loves ISU, but if you'd say assembling a solid administrative team is one of the core skills of the AD, can we say that about Coach Dan? The revolving door assistants?? The revolving door players?? The motivational skills that have him griping about his own team not playing hard year after year? I'm skeptical. I'm for external, that I agree with.First I feel like an external hire is 100% the way to go for this.

The assistant coaches that he has hired that have moved up the ladder!I don't know, I'm not sure Coach Dan is the man for the AD role.

Have to agree. seems like a good man, but something isn't working. His roster is a revolving door, and his APR has been terrible. He's had 2 NIT appearances and exited 2nd round in both. Maybe he would make a better AD than a BBall coach, but the credentials are not there.I don't know, I'm not sure Coach Dan is the man for the AD role.
