This... Forget about CJL for a minute here... IF indeed CJL was MKs guy and the BoT vetoed it... I think we have bigger issues and wouldn't get too attached to MK. I highly doubt that this is true, but, it would be a real cause for concern about how much USF is really supporting their athletics department and specifically the guy they have tasked with running it if they won't let him make the decisions.

Yes, I agree they would be undermining the AD...that is my biggest concern. If he never was MKs guy, then fine, but if they rejected it, that would be a bad situation.

If you have reason to think the BoT played a role, spit out your evidence or stop stirring the pot.

There is nothing suggesting this is the case other than a user who only joined here half a week ago.

It was taken from Grothe, check his twitter...if it is not true, then I would not have any issue with it. But if it is actually true, we would have to question whether the university actually wants athletics to succeed. They have a proven history of focusing on the research aspect over athletics.

Grothe is not a USF decision maker.

Him saying “It was almost a done deal and not sure what shifted. But it looks like something happened“ doesn’t hold much water to me.

And if you think the University doesn’t want the football program to succeed, why would they go and hire a multi-national championship winning coordinator with direct local ties?

Corroborate your ‘rumors’ por favor, otherwise your just trolling. And for some reason people are buying into it.

Just trying to piece together all the information. I will 100% support who we hire, as long as MK tells us all the process after it is all complete, I will be satisfied.

Yes, but how did CCS work out? He had won Natl Championships as a D coord with Florida. If we had Dabo coming in, I would agree with you 100%.

Why does MK need to tell you who he interviewed, reached out to, etc.?

Actually it is a public university, with public funding, so they are required by law.

To produce any documentation.  Verbal communication is not discoverable.  You are more than welcome to submit an FOI request.
