[QUOTE="Techster, post: 908259, member: 360"] I'm excited about GT's future with Batt at the helm. Originally I wanted someone from a smaller who had to do "more with less", but with Batt, we're getting the best of both worlds. Someone who had experience raising funds at small schools, but operational insight and hands on executive level experience at what is widely regarded as the most well run and best athletics department in the country. One thing that stands out to me in that article is Batt's ability to form deep connections with everyone. People are sad to see him leave, but are actively rooting for him to succeed. It means he treats people the right way, and will do the same at GT. It also means he has deep contacts all over the country...which he can leverage when searching for a coach. Yes, we have Parker Executive running point on the HFC search, but at certain levels PES won't get all the information GT might want about candidates. I'm pretty sure if Batt has a connection to a candidate, that connection would not hold back because they want to see him do well. The HFC football coach will be the biggest decision he'll make to this point in his career, and will dictate the trajectory of our program for possibly the next decade. I feel much better about Batt finding a HFC than I would have with someone else. [/QUOTE]
