I stopped here. Are you saying that the university President has no impact/no say in the athletic department? Or are you assuming that our atrocious President, who should have never been hired, doesn’t care about athletics? Don’t give me more bullchit about “major research institution”?

Like I said...This has nothing to do with academics or insane amounts of money. This is a very simple problem we have at UM. It is an obvious issue too. Good news: All we need to do is bring in a competent AD with passion and autonomy. Bad news: Our incompetent, illogical and ignorant BOTs...

I believe they had an elite, if not top 3 basketball coach, not too long ago. I also think that everyone, short of 3-5 programs, would have hired Harbaugh after he left SF or traded their HC for him. He had offers in the NFL at that point but not the point. The point is academics and athletics...

I stopped here. Giving a **** isn't the same has having total apathy, zero accountability and hiring the unemployable. Is that what your saying? Why do better academic schools (e.g. Michigan, Notre Dame and Wisconsin) seem to manage just fine? So according to you, our President should not be...

At UM, our process is we have a puppet at AD with BOTs micromanaging. Instead of bringing the best person to run the whole department and allowing them to make decisions (e.g. hiring an HC, firing an HC etc.), we have people like David Epstein, who is a total simp, destroying the process. They...

You’re still missing the point. Please ask if you want me to clarify. Also your “source” may not be informed of the problem. Not saying your “source” isn’t legit, I am just saying they may be incorrect about the problem.

What I am referring to is in that post.

I don’t think you read my post. Read about changing the process.

I am not concerned with that right now (e.g. Bama and Clemson). I am concerned with cancer. We have a cancer at UM. A cancer that is self-inflicted. A cancer that is worse than anything that the NCAA could punish us with. That self-inflicted cancer is Blake James and our BOTs. As long as we...

If we hired the Admiral, instead of our current POS President, I have a feeling he would have installed accountability in athletics.

And the right AD with the right vision/process may lead to things like your suggesting (e.g. Danny White).

We have a different opinion on what is the most important and first issue to fix.

Like I said, I am not concerned with Clemson and Bama. I am not concerned with the resources they have. I am not concerned with the disparity. My first and real concern is fixing the primary issue. You know, I know, people who are capable of logical and rational thought know, that that we have...

That is my biggest concern here. The process and the people in charge of the process are so ***ing bad. Give them more money, they will probably waste it. When it comes to waste, we're pretty great at it. Look at their history of waste here...

I am not disagreeing with any of this stuff. I am just keeping it very simple. With our current system in place (e.g. Blake James and the micromanaging BOTs) none of this really matters. We know we have more resources than those teams in the Coastal. We also have more talent than those teams in...
