+1. Very interested to see who we hire.

Clark said it would be up-tempo, so there's that.

Nothing has been mentioned, however I suspect we will hear something towards the end of next week or so.

It might not be held in the G&G room

You didn't see me praising the Brown, Calloway or McGee hires. I was disappointed in them all. I was a very big Hilyer fan. This hire is gold IMO. The only bummer is the bigger, cheating, high paying schools will come calling right when we hit our stride. I guess I am officially a sunshine pumper now.

If he has a couple of winning seasons I will wish him well wherever he goes.

All I know is if Clark takes us to a bowl game, it will be the only time he does it, because someone will hire him away ASAP.

I'm ok with that. I'd rather be a victim of success than of failure.

Everybody says that now, but the majority will be calling him "suitcase Bill"

the reason Anderson is called suitcase mike is that he went after any and every job available. its an unfair label when you take into consideration how the BOT FU###d with him. Every one of us would have done the same in his situation.

I think the chance is pretty strong that the BOT will do the same thing to Clark regarding the promised facilities.
