No one on that list is really under consideration.

No, just more about athletics.

Any specifics or just demanding excellence?

Demanding we stop sucking.  Specifically demand that we are always better than Orlando school in every category.

Those should definitely be somehow embedded in the job description....

I think the two go together. Of course academics are most important but the new president needs to know that athletics compliments academics. To ignore the PR value of athletics is foolish. For better or worse the so called “Doug Flutie” effect is real. However, it only works if athletics is worth a ****. Let’s face it, that is debatable relative to USF over the past years.

Of course I could be wrong relative to our G5 status, but I would really like to see what would happen to quantity and thus quality of applicants and $ donated if football and men’s basketball did something really great (women’s sports will never move the needle). 

Agreed, there needs to be a happy medium between academics and athletics...

If not excellence, then competence

Po-tay-to ... Po-tah-to .... With no specific evidence as to where JG didn't care that much about Athletics, there's no way to really quantitatively support the assertion that "I just hope he/she cares more about Athletics, or we will forever be in the dust of ucf"  .... which is cool. "Demanding excellence" has pretty much been a board staple as long as there's been this board.
