[QUOTE="froginaustin, post: 2807711, member: 785"] Let’s talk about what can happen when the BoT is involved in athletic hiring and firing because of wins and loses. Disregard corruption or other character issues. That’s another matter. UTx is a jiffy case study. Every successful president of UTx has been a master politician, balancing “constituencies” represented by other political appointees on their BoT. Politics kept Coaches Royal and Brown on the job after they were no longer getting the job done. Politics got Macovic (sp?) fired— he was aloof and not Texan— and good ole boy David McWilliams hired. If a BoT takes an active role in evaluating any university employees, they’re not necessarily experts and they can get it wrong. [/QUOTE]
