Yeah?

But, I trust Pitino and Shanley are making the right decision here. They obviously wI actually like Mike. Nice guy. Did some things to improve Carnesseca etc.ant their own hand picked guy.

How naive of you to think Pitino and Shanley are making this decision. It's Repole's hand picked guy.

From Kull's bio:

One of the first employees hired at vitaminwater, Kull was pivotal in the creation and growth of the global brand from its inception.

All you need to know. Repole is putting his guy in. He paid for it.

So Cragg leaving, is this voluntarily? Is his contract up? Is he being fired?

Trilly: "Early reports are this has some legs.

By early reports does he mean April 18th??

People who doubted Eric publically should be nervous because he’s been keeping the receipts

Looks like my stack of betting receipts a day.

Kudos to Eric, while others knew some time ago about Craggs departure, Eric actually posted it and put up with the naysayers.

Honestly I think Eric was the first to know on the board outside of many 1 person

 

[Moose]

Wait. So you're saying the impatient posters here should have just let it run its course but instead kicked and screamed like a baby.

Ok cool just checking.

has Cragg met the barometer of success for an AD? the two bball coaches he helped inked haven't had a losing season....

Just wondering if school now fires the person who extended Cragg?

Thanks mjm

After Eric posted Cragg exit, Moose noted it could likely coincide with end of semester or fiscal year thus explaining the delay. Because of Eric’s diligence he will vet Ed Kull

The way of the world. Eric was right on as usual. As far as Mike Cragg, I wish him all the best, seemed like a genuinely good guy who did his best to represent the school well.
As far as his being let go tied to the Anderson extension could well be the case but I'd bet it's more people in charge wanting their ow guy, which is perfectly understandable.
I'd remind the board that the sentiment regarding that extension here was at worst 50-50. Just my two cents. Just so F**ing easy to tear people down, he doesn't deserve it.
