The team doc and trainers are gonna be busy after those two.

Gus is a different kind of cat. If he has success at ASU, I could see him being content to stay there.

Alot of our folks don't want to hear that...
But you are 100% correct - they GET IT on the facilities part, we are still stumbling around in a silo with no apparent way out....

To hear them talk, it seems like they understand what needs to be done. But then nothing is done. Are they just lazy? If so, does anyone have the authority to fire them?

DR is the problem. Nothing gets done because he does not allow it. But only the govenor has the authority to remove Reneau and he is below the govenor's radar.

Sounds like a pretty sweet gig.
On topic -- Gus is the cover story on this week's Arkansas Times:

Maybe the Shaw Group built a radar deflector?

So that begs the question: Why does Dan Renaeu hate Louisiana Tech so much and why is he holding it back?

He has no concept for how important athletics are. He speaks it, but doesn't show it. Stovall, Eagles mis-handling, Loyd, Bicknell, Oakes too long, now BVDV. One of his happiest days as a president was when the only person who ever stood up to him left on a jet for Knoxville.
Notice I didn't include Mulkey?

He is doing a great job from an academic standpoint. I sure wish he would leave athletics to the AD. Does he flat out tell the AD, "I don't want Tech to be any good in athletics." I can't imagine what his problem is with prospering in academics AND athletics. It can be done.

Really? Didn't DR hire Dooley twice, once as HC and then as AD? Yeah I bet he couldn't wait for the day DD left.

Dooley was the AD the day he was hired as the football coach. J.O. stayed on in name only. That's no big secret.
D.R. was under the gun to make some changes and show commitment to athletics. He threw some money at Dooley and had to turn loose of things while Dooley was here. No doubt that D.R. hated not having control. I say again, he was ELATED when Dooley left.
