"So, neither Coach Hall nor Athletic Director McClain knew the contract and this was an "honest mistake"? bull****!

I propose that this is a CRIME, they thought they could get away with it, and it technically constitutes grounds for immediate dismissal of both.

Perhaps failure to pursue it as such is an additional crime, at another level."

As in termination for cause, and no payment for remaining contract term.

I mean, wouldn't this be against McClain?

Oh yes let's fire the AD that's actually moved us forward..

Well, the AD approved improper payment and the HFC accepted improper payment - both are culpable.

Sounds like it was a simple mistake.

But sure let's fire the AD that has helped move us forward and get someone that would've let us rot in CUSA.

Yeah, fix the mistake and make sure it doesn't happen again. but I'm with dgunn on the AD. He is the first AD we've had in quiet a while that was proactive on ANYTHING.

I’m glad we’re in the Sun Belt over CUSA, but let’s not award McClain the Nobel prize just yet. All his hires, so far, have been duds. If Cardona hadn’t come in, we’d be looking at two major sports hires by him that have failed miserably.

I don’t know if he can be blamed for the Ladner hire. I think that’s out of his hands.

Our leadership has been careless and irresponsible in general for a long time and lead us continually downward. And where else could some dork fumble $30k of a struggling organization's funds and be allowed to shrug it off? Heads should roll.

You want multiple people fired for a payroll error? How about the mistake gets fixed and everyone learns from it? The APR situation was left muddled at best after Hopson.

Baffling ain't it?

Our fans complain when we're not moving forward.. But don't want the people fired..

We get people in that move us forward and make a simple mistake.. Fire them and hire incompetent people to leave us stagnant.

Boggles the mind.

All I know about Paul is that under him my kids were lazily recruited and for the first a slovenly dresses fat chick wearing flip flops who didn’t know much about campus did the tour. When I contacted him he was a defensive and combative *****. They wisely chose to head north with my blessing.

Can't imagine why more effort wasn't made...

Probably just laziness, maybe focused on another demographic. Parents attended, I attended, siblings attended. Eagle Club, Alumni Association, etc. Always took kids to games. Other schools aggressively recruited them and offered solid scholarships. I was embarrassed.

I imagine the admin was clamboring to recruit the type of kid whose parents refer to people as "slovenly dressed fat chick[s]"
