I find that comment astounding!!! I am not sure why LTC talks to the paper, because everytime he does, the hole gets deeper, and deeper and deeper!!

Does anyone else find it ironic that the MBB job is a Masters requirement in it, yet Gene R. does not have a masters?? So with these requirements if Gene applied....he would have been screened out?? Something is wrong with this process!

Let me give it a shot....she wasnt from E. Illinois??

So if you saw Bobby Knight as a reference, would you call him and ask him about this coach?? Perhaps the LTC doesnt know Bobby....he was a head coach at West Point, coached Mike K...a certain Duke coach....he should know that history....of West Points that is!

BRILLIANT!

I missed the part of a high school coach criteria....or a director of operations...whom isnt a coach at all?? I missed those criteria???

We did contact him," Buning said. "He declined an invitation to come to our campus for an interview." I wonder if this was really the case.....Hollywood?? "People debate whether those are the proper qualifications, but they're not looking at the best interests of the university, the players and the future players we want here," Buning said. Wow is that a shot at any alum or fan who has a opinion?? I am not sure how to take that quote??

As stated earlier, if things dont change....Coach Lennon is not happy with the current situation, mainly...budgets and playing northern iowa......there are two kinds of military....guys who go in do the job...dont ask for anything and those who kiss up...get a promotion...i will let you guess which one this is....from his suspicious hires, poor management style....gettin rid of Rob Bollinger...among others but him being the biggest name....and as has been pointed out many times...decisions being made....I wonder who gave the order to offer Randall the job and a hour later retract the offer???

I wonder what prompted this??? The job at Florida Southern??? I wonder if RH will go to the paper now??

Please start writing the second letter!!!!!!!

high morals....and professiona conduct...perhaps I have PCM...good post

Is it legal to be a state employee...receive a free vehicle to drive...and allow your spouse to drive this vehicle all day?? is this a abuse of benefits?? just curious???

Someone tell me why there are only 3 peope on this hiring committee??? When has there every been only 3 people....one being the AD himself....why not have a committe....weed out the 56 resumes....give him 5 names and he makes the call....anyone who would make this connection would assume that the AD has already made his decision....and I also did hear from a very very good source that he has picked his man already...from out east.....why not have Ken Towers on the committee....Steve Brekke, coach Lennon, how about someone from the Boosters....maybe another community fan...a big time basketball fan....make this community feel like they are part of the solution and you will get a better reception from this tight knit small town GF atmosphere.....if the coach from Army gets the job....that will be a joke!! As far as 5 years of experience goes, Smith has it with Asst coaching experience as well.....he was a Asst. more than 5 years......if that is the qualiications they are using for RH as well?? agreed???

He was at SW State going to the elite 8....with a NSIC team....where was any coach before they got a chance...do you think every coach hired was at a top notch school???

that is funny....and not worthy of my response....maybe star2city is one of the drinking buddies....you know what they say drinking buddies are tighter than husband and wife...those late night parties can get pretty wild...lol....or maybe a staff hire defending the new found friend???

The sad part about the interview on Fox was the AD there taking all the credit when Randall was the one who got the Purdue game going and IU....always there for the glory but never taking the heat...epidemic these days!!!!!!!! begin writing the second letter...PLZ!!!!!!

I hope RH does go to the GF Herald....because that is the most outrageous thing I have heard in what...7 months....lol...side joke...

I am not sure professional and his name should be used together....like i said before coach Lennons quietness about the UNI game should speak volumes for anyone who can connect the dots...

I do believe a apology is in order Sicatoka....to myself...for doubting me again... That aside...I know this is true too....very unprofessional....whether he didnt know he couldnt even offer the job to anyone until it closes....whether the LTC pleads arrogant or ignorant....either way its no excuse.....still the matter at hand is why would Randall apply after being treated this way....I would have cleaned out my office the next day....one more showing of a second letter needing to be written.....someone please speed this process up... I am not sure Randall is the best guy for the job....but no one deserves that treatment....no one....unprofessional....as unprofessional as his departmental restructuring.....class begets class....and some dont have any......

I am curioius UND Fan now that Coach Glas is gone...wondering who you spoke to??

anyone else care to back me up on this job proposal to Randall??? Corella??? 92 96?? Drive for show??? I know all of you know it too....please someone else back me up...........

Perhaps the boss should be soon....been a year now....how much longer can he blame RT for everything going wrong???

With the list growing everyday, with alot of very good people applying, I think Herbst chances seem to be dwindling with almost every application that comes in. Rumor has it RH was offered the job by the AD and the offer retracted within a hour of the offer....any comments on this situation??? My first thought is....why would RH apply then if this was the case, because that was a ultimate slap in the face....whether he deserved the job or not....not a professional way to conduct business!!! IMO

Some of you guys on this board never cease to amaze me.....have you seen any quotes from coach Lennon on this??? Why is that??? He didnt want the game maybe??? Its funny....ask any of the quote smaller schools who play up and get the big gurantee....check with them the next 3 weeks with their health....simple fact is with 63 schollies....you have more bodies...better players and the other team gets beat up...ask St. Cloud when they did it a few years ago....ask Mankato who did it a few years ago....the big pay day isnt worth sacrificing the season.....but with the budget in a mess as it is....I guess LTC had no choice...perhaps that top heavy staff would have lessened the burden.....maybe when coach Lennon leaves then you brilliant people will connect the dots....Rob Bollinger leaves, Rich GLas leaves....when coach Lennon decides enough is enough....then perhaps you will connect the dots...

Perhaps he knows of the situation within the dept....maybe he spoke to coach Glas....perhaps he is cocerned with the D 1 move....perhaps he feels he can beat UND again next year!!
