Max excitement, Dooley is THA MAN!!!!!
Excited about this hire!
Cautiously Optimistic
Probably not right.
Very disappointed. period.
GAAAAH THE SKY IS FALLING, BACK TO THE SUNBELCH ASAP! KNOW YOUR PLACE TECH!
So, Chelsea for President, huh?
The accomplishments of the father should not be confused with the accomplishments of the children. Dooley's accomplishments speak for themselves. He is a degreed lawyer and practiced for two years. He has experience coaching in the NFL and was the recruiting coordinator at LSU.
I admit I'm not fond of this move and it scares me more than excites me, but he has his own accomplishments separate from his father.
I really, really hope we got this one right.
I've never heard you speak such a theory, but I've often wondered the same thing. It's clear to me that Reneau doesn't put a premium on athletics. It is also clear to me that Reneau highly values his legacy. Perhaps we should make it clear to him that the sports fans plan on linking his legacy to athletics?
Well I don't know how long he stays in this dual role but I would be completely shocked if it falls into your defintion of quick fix or even the beginning of your definition of short term.
I think you are aware of my first choice for AD. But like I have said before, in lieu of doing things the right way (which DR was NOT going to do) this is the best move we could have expected.
I have a strong gut feeling that this is going to payoff for Tech in a big way. And I think in most traditional college towns and athletic departments this would be a bad move. But for us, right now, in this town, I think this is going to be great. People at Tech with thin skin and fragile ego's are gonna hate this move but I think the fans are going to end up loving it.
This is huge!
I would have liked to see Dooley have a bowl season before this move was made, but when Oakes was shown the door, the timing went out the window.
Dooley will be a great coach and making him the AD will allow us to keep him longer. Recruits will be impressed when the AD visits.
I could be wrong, but I really thinks this will be a pivotal moment in Dawg athletics.
I think Dooley will do just fine....and I feel that making him AD was an OUTSTANDING move!!!! With leadership and vision....there is no limit for Tech.... and we all need to remember....Dooley wasn't hired as the football coach because he was an offensive guru or a great defensive minded guy....he was hired because of his experience with the game and his understanding of people......anyone that listens to him can't help but to be touched by his passion and commitment to excellence......he's a true leader.....and having those qualities means that he doesn't have to micromanage every logisitical detail of the athletics department...he just needs to put the right people in the positions to do the logistical work and have them report back to him with the details.....besides, we all know that Dooley will hold whomever he puts into those positions accountable for what they do..........the good'ole boy system is over....
I like it when you sang "More than a feeling" That was a cool song and you can mark me down as a fan!

I agree on this one. Just chill for a while Dwayne. This was a great move I think. I also would have taking DD as the AD before he ever became our HC. This man is focused and driven to succeed. Again he was born and cred for these two jobs.
