[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 940857, member: 2299"] It's a basketball centric view because he was a basketball centric hire and most of his largest impact was from the basketball side of things. The main draw of hiring Bobinski was his experience making basketball decisions from his time at Xavier. As far as most positive light possible, I'm not sure how you could phrase it otherwise. Yes, basketball had some issues during that time, notably with Ron Bell and the handling of the DLab situation that got us in trouble with the NCAA. I'd agree that the second one was certainly mishandled, the former was just a fluke situation, and you can put that on the AD if you want. However that wouldn't be Bobinski. From the football side of things, the only real argument he was the worst AD is that he didn't worship at the alter of Johnson. Otherwise he had the same issues we've had under pretty much every AD (and likely are issues bigger than the AD), and still have now. But he didn't hire Collins (or not be prepared better for Johnson leaving), nor did he promote from within Collins staff to replace him so by doing nothing he's already ahead of Standsbury and Batt on the football front. Basketball-wise Batt might look like a genius if CDS pans out but we'll have to wait and see. [/QUOTE]
