the AD appears to be 'frozen' in his ability to conduct his job of hiring and evaluating coaching talent.


the signs are pretty clear.


maybe he is hiding behind a construct where he has a fixed budget and so he is placing all his marbles with his 'bias' hire for MBB

that is what appears to be going on

he is stuck in a prison of his own making

it's just inexcusable what has happened with the radio silence at Long Beach State with Jane's replacement, with the AD/coaching situaiton

it's a total lack of leadership of all 3 - Jane (I guess she is officially gone?), Apel, and Smitherin.

we simply unfortunately have to wait and pray for a competent and visionary President to then clean up the mess all 3 have made, particularly in the last year it's been appalling.

there's no semblance of anyone being a leader or taking responsibility for anything
