Well you have to understand the situation. Compher sat on his ass for several months doing nothing. Hart has actually moved relatively quickly, he was not with the athletic department in any capacity until about a week ago and he's set to make a hire this week. Dooley has been 1A all along but Compher didn't pull the trigger.

Not sure if you noticed but there aren't many coaches lining up to take this job. Dooley, Moton or Bobby Lutz are all major upgrades over Lebo. I want Dooley but if we miss on him I am warming up to Lutz. I understand the knocks against him but he has supposedly said he'll take a smaller salary than others in order to pay for better assistants.

That speaks volumes about how bad he wants the job. Think he would be driven to do a good job.

Compher should've made the hire, then announced his resignation. Now imagine he made a great hire, baseball goes to the world series and football gets a bowl. All time ticket sales for football and basketball. Compher could tweet "up yours" from retirement. That would be hillarious if it wasn't so tragic.

Of course that could never happen because, you know, Compher.
