But she's a hispanic woman with a hyphenated last name!

That checks all the boxes you're looking for in an A.D. doesn't it?

Did Sterk get to hire his replacement? Looks like someone he would go after.

I hope this isn't a woke hire but it sure smells like it.

Not a thrilling hire, but I'll hope she turns out to be a great hire. Let's hope she gets along with Drink

This can't be serious. It just can't be. This only makes since if we are working a exit to the Big 10 deal. No way in hell she's qualified to lead Mizzou to an expanded SEC.

I seriously can't believe this name is even a remote possibility.

Her SEC experience is being on the committee that hired Cuonzo at Tennessee. My God, are we just done trying.

Here's an interesting quote from the Thamel Yahoo article.

quote:

"One of the key behind-the-scenes voices promoting Reed-Francois' candidacy was SEC commissioner Greg Sankey, who got to know (Reed-Francois) during her time at Tennessee."

What a fricking joke of a hire.

Virtue signaling frickingn nonsense. The only reason she’s here is because she’s a “woman of color”

Just when Mizzou starts doing things that make sense and get me to thinking about a large donation, they go and hire an AD from UNLV.

I guess I'll buy more toys instead.

Choi has been pissing off department heads left and right. We'll find out he probably insisted on Her. She probably gave him the answers he wanted to hear.

Sounds like it’s time for Choi to get the frick out. I wasn’t a huge fan of Sterk, but I’d definitely take him over this chick. AND we paid him to go away just to make this hire?

For fricks sake...what are we doing here?

I thought the same thing...figured these to be a "Ramrod"-type post.

I'm somewhere between a meh and a blah.

Hard to believe the guy that kept the Jefferson statue would be ok with this hire but maybe.

Of course I would much prefer a splashy hire and this just stinks of Mizzou doing Mizzou things. But results will tell if this was right or not none of us clowns on the Rant really know her qualifications or interview.

That’s something I suppose.

I’m not going to whine like a little bitch about this woman as I’ve no idea who she is, what her vision is, etc. I’ll save the bitching for later if she proves disastrous. Until then I’ll hope for the best,

Not a fan of the hire personally. Hopefully I’m wrong.

Deleted the thread that seemed to be devolving. Kept this one and didn’t delete anything. Some latitude is being given just as there is after a crappy loss. Just try to make sure you’re adding to the conversation about the hire and not just being political. There is a poli board for that. I think everyone still here adds to the conversation even if others have differing views.

You guys know the difference between people having differing views which is fine and being a douche just to be a douche which will get ya booted to the rant or tigerboard.

I just question whether she can be impartial with basketball.

Her kid is a walk on at Mizzou and apparently the Martin's and the new AD are close.

This has disaster written all over it.
