I like him because I think he will shake it up. BVDV was semi-retired . . . and possibly just incompetent.

You know day is coming when she find someone else,
but you enjoy the ride till that day comes. Good luck.
Mr. McClelland. We enjoyed the ride and hope that
La. Tech treats you good.

From everything Ive read and heard about Brad Teague he is impressive. Our WBB coach Matt Daniel come from UCA and he has talked highly about Teague. He would def. be worth looking at.

Teague is my #1. That is also true of 90% of the Southern Miss I know. Cobb at Appy State would be my #2.

McNeese fans liked him, so I don't see any reason why we won't like him. He's a raiser of money and that's what we need the most.

You and us both. Wish our admin would make a decision already. Lots of indecision around these parts.

I for one am glad we are taking whatever time is needed to get the right man. The President has already set some VERY high goals for the next AD. This time we need the perfect fit.

Football season is only a month away... A decision needs to be made before then. (Although I read on EP that they may have their choice made by the end of this month?)

Yes Aug 1 is the goal.

Tech fans....who, if anybody consulted Tech on your search?

The same people who are handling you search.

Thats what I heard.

Station on coast just said we would announce our new AD tomorrow at 11am.

Hearing that it will be Mario Moccia of Southern Illinois. Recent Under Armour AD of the Year. Its a new name so that is all I know about him.
