[QUOTE="Techster, post: 898332, member: 360"] One thing that's starting to concern me: Is GT starting to have a mega donor meddling problem? See Auburn. It started with bringing TStan back to GT, and then pressuring TStan to hire CGC (or Whisenhunt). Now there's a LOT of smoke that donors have already reached out to HC candidates even though we don't even have an AD yet. Personally, I think if GT wants to hire a quality AD, you have to give him rope to hire his own football HC. Hiring a football head coach is one of the signature hires that makes (or breaks...see TStan) an AD's career. Are we cutting our future AD's legs out from under him (or her) by shoehorning them into a candidate they might night even want? This job isn't the most attractive job for ADs (small budget vs our P5 peers, difficult academics, small curriculum, etc), are we making it even more unattractive by perceived meddling by mega donors?
