The BOR are an embarrassment to the post- they have no business intervening in the AD matter- it should come from the president
It's too early to give SE a grade right now- let Football season play out we are 1 year into a coaching change- after 1 year things looked awesome for Bo and yet it became perpetually clear that he was the model for 9 wins and non Top 25 finishes
It should be clear after this year what needs to happen but for goodness sakes let this season play out the last thing we need is MR hot seat rumors because the AD got fired
I agree with this post, although Bo did finish in the Top 25 in each of his last 6 years here. Still glad he's gone, but it was his behavior, leadership, and blowouts in big games that got him fired more than his overall records.
Back to the subject at hand, I remember reading an article last fall that the regents wanted to revise policies for approving contracts, probably in response to when Harvey wanted to extend Eichorst's contract. It will be interesting to see who the next chancellor is, and how much influence they will have on athletics. I never understood why Perlman had so much influence, when at every other school it is the President who hires/fires athletic directors. I know Hank Bounds follows football closely and knows how much a successful football program can benefit a university.
