[QUOTE="Vespidae, post: 253615, member: 2957"] I agree. But whose responsibility is that? I think it's CPJs. On hiring, you sit down and ask, "What is your vision for the Institute and how do you see the role of Athletics in that vision? What are expectations for football? What resources do we have or are likely to have? How much freedom do I have to operate? If GTAA can self fund, can I do more?" A good operating manager could help. Honestly, my bosses never agreed with my plans until I showed them how they would benefit. And it took 1-2 years of convincing before they finally agreed. (The biggest selling jobs were always internal, never external.) Alabama's President, for example, clearly sees what Nick Saban has meant to the quality of the incoming students, the capital budget, and in the increase in research spend at the university. He sees the football program as an enabler of, not a cost to, the university. I don't think Paul or CPJ is involved in anything that we don't see in the business world. It's just in how you deal with it. [/QUOTE]
