Like CBO86 suggests, I don't need or want to hear anything. I want to see action--get the best person for the job that you can. My point in this thread is this constant time line and countdown expecting some sort of statement from the administration is silly. The "crickets" comment after each competing school takes an action with which you agree is growing weary and was never relevant to begin with. You've made your point. You want the staff replaced and that is fair but to expect some sort of explanation if that decision is not made is just silly. You are like the folks on rocks house that believe that Jack owes them a "white paper" of the review and process that went into the decision to replace the playing surface at the football stadium. He owes them nothing but if that decision is a complete and ludicrous failure, it's on Jack.

Okay, but at the same time, don't be disingenuous

about the reasons behind decisions. I think it's fair to say we as alumni and/or supporters of ND athletics are often fed a line of crap about why something is done or not done.

When you are talking about an athletic program that is supported in some ways by individual donor contributions, I do believe it is reasonable at times to be given honest assessments of the status of ND athletics. In that sense, it's different than a business which generates revenue from sources other than individual support and often times where there is no emotional ties to the business.
