Carl Miller had that Athletic Department running like a well oiled machine.   

Miller wanted to hire Denver’s Armstrong. Story was that he would have come, but his wife didn’t want to come to GF. Then Miller wanted to hire Ned Harkness. He had given Harkness the impression the job was his.  That was vetoed by Clifford. The third guy was an assistant with UND ties who was said to be a “courtesy” finalist. Our UND hockey “experts” were up in arms when Gino was hired. Clifford was a huge factor in our athletic success during his tenure.

Most ADs are …

Tough talking about people/human beings this way, but UND needs some passion combined with intelligence in their athletic department. In my opinion, it’s currently lacking and has been for some time.
