Does anyone think Loftin would give Alden a gold star for hiring Anderson?

I don't see it.

This isnt true. There is significant booster pressure on him over his troubles with the BB program.


The SEC move saved his arse, it doesn't matter how much he screws up now.

Feel free to think what you want but this is clearly incorrect.

I felt the way you do until I noticed the guy has 9 lives. he should have been fired after the Ricky Clemons Saga, if hes survived all that crap how can you think things are different now?

The SEC puts him in a pressure cooker. We're in the premier athletic conference in the country. There's no reason to keep a mediocre AD. In fact, the revenue levels and national exposure dictates that you cannot. So Alden may have bought himself some breathing room initially with managing the move to the SEC. He also brought a tremendous amount of pressure to his job.

They are different now. He lost a lot of wiggle room with the Haith hire and being blindsided by Anderson. He was still trying to sell Haith to boosters going into last year.

He botches this hire and he will be under enormous pressure to move on.

My other post was one of the last ones. Did anyone give any thought to what I mentioned?

72 hour required notice for the board meeting means the guy said yes this morning or last night.

Seems good to me. There's no reason to wait to call the meeting for a few days after he said yes.

Right?

Someone validate me.

I forget what your post said.

I'm a people pleaser so I'll be happy to validate you either way.

I hope you're right, this school has a history of being too loyal with crony's.

I'm almost 100% positive it's Marshall.

It was even being discussed here on OKC sports radio. They seem to want self to coach the thunder, and discussed who would replace self at kU and mentioned they thought Marshall would be off the table next year because he'll already be hired somewhere else making signifigantly more cash there.

Read between the lines.

Wow! I go be productive for a few hours and all hell breaks loose! Wayne melts down, killz goes on another rant, Kilgore tweets, and now we have a BOC meeting scheduled? Geez.

I could be wrong but I don't think it's Anderson. I think it's Marshall or someone we aren't expecting. Good job to the athletic dept for keeping such a tight lid on it, but I bet we hear the name well before Mondays meeting.
