    Re: Who should the next AD be?

    Spending Christmas vacation close to Boone, NC this year. Drove by ASU's facilities earlier in the week. Extremely impressive for FCS. CUSA made a mistake (I know markets....) of taking Charlotte over ASU in my opinion. Doing some grocery shopping in town on Monday, very surprised at the number of locals wearing ASU gear. Boone has a non-ASU population of somewhere 4500-6000 (estimated) and ASU has an enrollment of just over 16K. They reason I mention all of this is that I read an article today on Charlie Cobb, ASU AD. I would be be very happy to get him based on what I have seen on campus and read about him if we could not get my top two choices above. He seems to have done a lot over the course of his time here. He is a NC native and a NCSU alumni so he is probably reluctant to leave the state (the Boone area is beautiful). Served as a senior associate AD at NCSU before coming to ASU.

    I like Cobb. He would do well here.

    Article on the upgraded ASU football facilities:


    http://issuu.com/highcountrymagazine...2-october-2009 Page 59


    Orignial article that I read "introducing" me to Cobb:

    http://www.hcpress.com/august-magazine-2012 Page 64



    And it appears that Cobb was a top candidate for the USM AD job back in the spring (lucky for us he did not get it):

    Liking Cobb very much as "the guy" if we cannot get one of the Tech alumni as AD.

    We did these for our HC for two years. What's the difference?

    see, this is my fear. For an HC, sure, it's important, but you win some, you lose some. He doesn't fight politics, he wins games (hopefully). But going 12-0 don't mean a thing if the AD can't play politics. And Brutus can't play politics.

    That would be my guess. I have seen no indications that he is leaving, and frankly, would be kind of shocked if he did (because of the way we do things...).

    His hiring was announced in March of 2010. I can't find anything stating a 3 year of 4 year contract or when his contract began.

    Don't quote me on this but I've heard March for him or June 30th which is the end of the States Fiscal year. Then again, we are talking about Tech and you never know with Athletic Directors.
