..lmao. if this happens, I am ordering my f'ing steak well done

BC is where he belongs. They don't have high expectations, they are extremely limited by geography and budget. Doesn't bother me one bit.

Beta Blake will be right at home, BC has hockey just like Mankato State did...

He should take his freshly pegged *** down to Southie for a couple beers.

Really?

I don't see Blake James as fit to be an AD for a P5 program.

I don't even know what he is good at (I guess the word was always fundraising)...which I guess should be something that could help at like UL-Monroe.

 

[JHallCanes]

Good

BC has been doing a really good job finding coaches and coordinators over the years

 

[Rellyrell]

Any P5 school looking into this dude needs to be dropped, immediately, to a FCS level. I agree, Blake needs to be somewhere in the North East, but he needs to be at a UMass or Boston U, something like that. BC is too goo…..


Nah, Fck it; fck him & them…let’s make this happen!

 

[jackbenimble71]

..the previous AD at BC left for Penn State a few months ago

I don't see BC hiring him but the fact he is a finalist and made it this far is mind boggling.

 

[CaneFanWNY]

Blake James shouldn't even be qualified as athletic director of Monroe County Community College, let alone legitimately getting a shot with another P5 school. Yikes, better them than us though.

 

[Fluffhead]

I will always have a soft spot in my heart for BC. I was a student at Tulane when Katrina hit and they took me in, gave me textbooks, tickets for football, and refused to take any money for tuition. It is a beautiful campus too. I do not wish this on them.

 

[TheEye]

Sean Eichorst destroyed Nebraska. Watch what Blake does for BC.

 

[Caned Peach]

RIP BC athletics if they hire him. Maybe he'll try Manny again

If he gets the job and has to hire a football at BC there is a DC at Penn st he could probably hire. That would be worth a steak dinner for me.

 

[miamicanephins]

He's probably a "finalist" because they needed someone trans or willing to become trans

 

[supersaiyanshel]

He'll fit right in with their proud Hockey tradition.

Dream job for him.

Exactly he is the PERFECT hire for them. Good fundraiser. It's funny in life how I used to get ****ed with the rude person at the drive through window until I matured and realized they weren't the problem. I need to talk to the manager. Blake James was hired by a school admin with low expectations and standards. When the standards and investement was raised you get the highest quality AD and Coach in decades.

PS Yall let Blake go. I guarantee you he not thinking about yall. Hope he lands on his feet.

 

[simplycanes]

Must be a diversity candidate.

 

[TemplarCane]

Good. Hire him.

BC will no longer be a problem when we play up there.

It’s always blown my mind that these schools and teams don’t peep through the history of message boards from previous stops of the guys that they’re about to give millions of dollars to and see how people felt about them. I know the high and mighty scoff at the free, unsolicited, opinions of peons, but in reality, we know more about these dudes than your dumb search committee does who looks at resumes and haircuts. Even when I make small hires, I go into the weeds of what I can find online about the person and often what I find is very revealing.

I know we’re not experts on juggling football, basketball, and underwater basketweaving programs, but a general rule of thumb is if the last places fanbase (a thing you also have) was delighted to see him go, that means something.
