You're gonna have to list them or I'm calling BS.

Selig spent 11 years directing the Western Kentucky University Hilltopper athletic program, which won 70 Sun Belt Conference championships from 2000-2010 and a national record 19 crowns in two seasons, 2008-2010.

From our website.

Did a quick search and found 3 in baseball and 1 in men's golf and 2 in football (1-AA).
Around 30 in men's/women's cross country and track & field
Around 10 in women's volleyball
I see 5 in men's basketball (SBCT Champions)

I think there is some fuzzy math in there (Maybe individual championships?)

But he racked up a bunch in CC and T&F (both indoor and outdoor). If you have a strong men's and women's team, you can collect 4 team championships per year. Can't compare those numbers to the numbers in ODU program.

Fair enough. Im really more concerned with winning less than 1 championship per year than with how many WKU won under him. We have what 18 sports or something?

Based on that huge number of championships i figured that he was at least hired partially based on his track record of success. we have a lot of good things going for us, and some advantages over our conference mates.... feel like Wood should have us in a better place by now.

He also comes off as a bit delusional in some of his quotes.
