I’m meh around chapel hill undergrad. Not a big fan of that, again, but if he can succeed whatever. More concerned about his lack of true G5 experience. Not sure how typical SMU is. Raising money at big brands with long established bases is far different than raising money at Charlotte.

So far, I’m seeing mixed feelings from @Charlotte49ers fans about the next AD having his undergrad degree from Chapel Hill. He has overseen major growth in Clemson basketball, and oversaw their football program. I wouldn’t care where he graduated from. Success is success.

@_agent49 Maybe? You're the first to say this. The dialogue I've heard around Mike was that fundraising wasn't his strong suit. I hope that's the case.

@Fratetastic Pretty sure Mike Hill had that experience at Florida. Power league fundraising isn’t equitable to G5. Just a different landscape and unique challenges. That said, winning in FB and MBB will solve 90% of fundraising issues.

@Mr704intheQC Not only that, but they're over paying for a mediocre or sub mediocre product. They're losing on so many fronts. 🤣

@Normbulance Yeah, but the CFP don't need to punish the rest of us by putting some random champ in when there are better teams... especially with the ACC making their own stupid tie breaking rules.

@Fratetastic That’s the accs fault. Shouldn’t be the CFPs job to fix stupid leagues.

If it’s about the best teams getting in the CFP then just make it conference champions. If you can’t win your league you already shown you aren’t the best. Or is it really about brands?

@Fratetastic Insanity. Not done either, it pays to be a fired coach. Brian Kelly, $53M James Franklin, $49.7M Billy Napier, $21.2M Mike Gundy, $15M Sam Pittman, $9.8M DeShaun Foster, $6.43M Brent Pry, $6M Trent Bray, $4M Trent Dilfer, $2.4M Jay Norvell, $1.5M

The availability of millions upon millions of dollars to fire a coach is disturbing. That on top of still being able to pay athletes is nuts.

Imagine this in a world where we're openly paying players for play: suspensions over meal plans and firing a coach after making the NCAA tourney. Not only do we need to fix NIL & the portal...we still have to figure out how to make the NCAA not a shit show of an organization. x.com/FOS/status/196…
