And they should be held accountable correct? Basketball/football has been bad the last 10 years. Thatâs a long time considering the âgood ol daysâ.
Not sure I get anything from this at all. She should send this out and it be the norm. I donât claim to know all the parts of the ADâs job but winning and fan support for basketball and football has to be up there. Sheâs in too many wallets/purses. The AD and coach get paid a lot of money for RESULTS! This isnât volunteer work. You win and have success or you get fired, period.
Oh well⌠Go niners![/quote]
Iâm sure I going against the grain here, but winning isnât the ADâs job.
Putting competent people in place, selling and building the program, and keeping the program clean are the ADâs job.
Iâm not saying that she hasnât failed miserable in the first and second items, but Spears, Harris and Dewhurst missing 3 free throws in the last 42 seconds of a game against Richmond that cost Bobby Lutz 20 wins, a trip to the NIT and likely his job isnât Judyâs fault.[/quote]
âHiring competent peopleâ - The coaches Judy has hired have not been successful In 10+ years.
âSelling and building programâ - attendance is down
So you agree she has failed at 2 of the 3 things you mentioned. How is that not a reason to fire someone in a results oriented job?[/quote]
Iâm not saying she shouldnât be gone, because of failure listed above. Iâm saying if the game is lost itâs not her fault. To make an example in a bubble, if we draw 6000 folks to the Knights stadium and lose to State 16-1, she has succeeded in doing her job (that night).
Iâm ready for Judy to be gone, but in my opinion, she gets blamed for things she has no control over.[/quote]the knights are the one that started the college series at the uptown stadium. Theyâre the ones promoting it in uptown, at games and with sponsored posts on Facebook.
Not sure just would be the most appropriate person to give credit to if 6000 people show up.
I get your larger point and mostly agree, but the knights example is a poor one.[/quote]
I too understand what Tintin is saying but the example used is not very good. The baseball games Uptown were started based on a relationship between the baseball staff and the Knights representatives. I donât think she has tried to take credit for it, but I guess since it falls under the umbrella of the Athletic Department, she could.
If we sold out the smallest stadium in FBS regularly, and we werenât dropping in attendance annually, I might not have as much beef with Judy. When we sit back and say âWe donât need to expand the stadium until we sell out our current seats.â Thatâs what really pisses me off. Her department is in charge of selling tickets and getting asses in seats, so we can eventually expand. the majority of our efforts need to be towards getting the football program up and running, but instead we are watching it slowly deteriorate, before it even gets a chance. My expectations are managed when it comes to the product on the field, but the off-the-field stuff is where I have the beef.[/quote]
Are you saying she makes excuses for not doing her job, but then also takes credit for accomplishments made by others?[/quote]
Of all my issues with things - this is the biggest. When things are great she loves to bask in the limelight and take credit, when things go south they are never, ever, her fault.
