Don't care, as long as they keep their grubby paws off of Barnhart.

I really don't think he's been too bad but a lot of people seem to not like him

He does nothing at all in his actual job and he openly rooted for TCU against A&M in baseball. It's clear is just using A&M for a golden parachute into retirement. Most invisible, do-nothing, lazy AD in America.

Wow, seriously?

I never felt like he really embraced USC while he was here. He did a fair job at raising donations, but it seemed like he lacked some passion.

Nope.

He screwed us in favor of TCU in baseball.

He wanted a 95k seat stadium, and not our current biggest in the state/SEC stadium.

He basically killed all our poor bats by running them off with nets without giving them a place to go to. We will all have to deal with the bug problem that will cause.

He wouldn't fire our unpopular basketball coach last season when most wanted it.

He has allegedly had conflicts with Sumlin about player discipline.

He isn't very liked, that is for sure.

Hymen really sucks XXXXX.

Hymen should be fired today so he can take his TCU dream job!

We our fortunate our BOR overruled him on the football stadium design, otherwise we would have had over 12,000 Aggies who couldn't get into the Ball State game.

Hymen's mo is do nothing, keep your mouth shut, draw a big check!

I would love for them to take Hyman!

FWIW, I've heard that EH is done after this year anyway. We shall see.

Yes. Dead serious.

He was on the NCAA committee that determined where the regionals would be played and refused to advocate for A&M getting to host instead of TCU. We know that without a doubt because he said so himself in an interview. He also said that he thought TCU deserved it because he found their record more impressive, despite the fact that A&Ms record was literally (in the proper sense of the word) better. He then showed up to the game in a TCU-purple shirt and was photographed hobnobbing with big TCU boosters. Have you ever worked with an old person who is a year or so from retirement and pretty much does nothing and is a big net zero for the organization. That's exactly what Hyman is like, only in that analogy he'd have your company's competition's swag all over his desk.

The stadium funding and planning was all done before he was hired and what little input he tried to have was negative. The money that rained in had nothing at all to do with him and had everything to do with the SEC move, Johnny, and the new stadium. He hasn't fund-raised, he hasn't fired the coach he should have fired, he lost the tennis coach to UTw, he hasn't made any important decisions himself - even the choice of concession operator was made by the Chancellor. He's done nothing other than get in dust-ups with Sumlin over discipline and tell a journalist the private content of his conversation with Johnny Manziel.

I work for the Feds. We have plenty of people like that. And most of them are nowhere near retirement.

Our fans are so fricking stupid. Alleva has done a great job with LSU's athletic department.


I don't think he's indispensable, but it's clear as day LSU could downgrade

It's not just that Texas fired Mack Brown, they have made him the scapegoat of every problem Charlie Strong has had. It's all Mack's fault for leaving a cupboard full of 4 and 5 star players that are "too soft" for Strong.



Like Obama with Bush.
