This is from an article published in tri-cities.com by Tim Hayes: Buccaneer athletic director, Les Robinson was instrumental in establishing a solid financial base for ETSU athletics. During his tenure, the Pirate Club increased its membership to an all-time high, fund-raising reached record levels, and basketball attendance increased by 175 percent.

That's the kind of dynamic leadership that needs to return. We have it now in the president's office...I look forward to that kind of leadership in the athletic department soon.
