No rush to extend him. After this upcoming season, with 2 2 years left, yea, then give him an extension if it is earned.

If a person has been given 20 years in a managerial position, has been paid a large salary and will have a very nice retirement check every month, I find it hard to feel "sorry" for them.

I have always appreciated how well the athletic department does with student athletes academically, but winning is also important. As the article states, getting to the NCAA tournament in basketball and winning MAC football titles has been a rarity.

I also understand that it's difficult to win consistently in the MAC. If you have a good coach they will surely be poached by some school with deeper pockets.

But 20 years is a long time. It's important to bring in a fresh administration from time-to-time to reset things.

I had high hopes for Gaber being a great president, but she was not. Following the disaster that was Jacobs she looked good, but in the end she left abruptly and didn't accomplish much. Right now I like what I see with Postel. He won' be here forever, but I'd like to see him and the new AD shake things up a bit. I don't want Kowalczyk and Cullop fired, but I want clear expectations on what it will take for a contract extension. Candle is a different story.
