Dr. Stanton did accomplish some nice things, but even he knows that his legacy will ALWAYS be tied to dropping football.
I compare him alot to former POTUS George W. Bush. I don't believe neither are bad guys. I believe that both are incredibly intelligent overrall. Both of their problems resulted from not being surrounded by the right people, really great people to give him the information he needed to be so incredibly effective that the university would truly grow.
They gave the stat that more are living on campus, and that's great. 9 percent increase. Again it's not something he directly accomplished. How much has to do with the lottery scholarship and the lack of safe, affordable rental property around the campus? There's really not that much when you think about it. Not when you consider ETSU has almost 15,000 students. Compare it to Radford, there are apartment complexes completely around that campus, ETSU has Criminole Ridge or whatever it's called.
I guess ultimately, Dr. Stanton's body of work was good, but not great. He'll always be remembered for the football decision, and creating the disconnect between alumni and the university.
I hope it can be repaired with Dr. Noland.

Stanton is smart, but he has a temper and is prone to listening to his friends, his friends aren't always right.

GWB is as dumb as a bag of hammers.
