When asked about conference realignment in the article he pretty much says that we're good just staying in CUSA, and that its dumb for us to try and move to a different conference.

I wouldn't read too much into that. Discussions I've had indicate that he prefers to not air any conference realignment talk in the public domain.

Nor does he wish to do anything like fundraising.

That's one thing I'm not sure I would give Ingram credit for. We are on our own. Nobody is helping us, but us.

According to the article Ingram was the one who raised 41 million dollars. We're so "lucky" to have him.

Agree. I don't blame the guy for not publically s***ing on our conference.

We're very lucky to have him. I'd hate for someone to hire him away from us.

This part is true. He loves to take all the credit for fundraising without having done the heavy lifting.

This-

Speaking publicly about changing conferences isn't going to help anyone. I would be more interested in what he says privately. I hope when the opportunity arises, he will work towards moving up conferences.

Let him take all the credit. In fact pile it on him.
