With CDC to Austin, who’s next?

When the “job gets posted” Monday, TCU will be presently ranked in the top 15 in football, baseball and basketball. We are competing at the highest level in the major sports. Our football, basketball, and baseball venues are all top-of-the-line, and if AGCS expansion is going well, we can demonstrate to candidates how supportive our donor base is. The entire campus is growing, and the university is on an upward academic trajectory. The City of Fort Worth is a great place to live. We have Patterson, Dixon and Schlossnagle and no need for major hires. We have power 5 revenue and an administration and Board that are committed to keeping TCU Athletics at the top. No State legislature to deal with and less pressure than a major state school job.

The sky is the limit—yes thanks in part to Del Conte, Morrison, and Hyman, but also thanks to Boschini, the Board, the fans and donors, and many other.

Who do you want / what are you hearing for the new AD?

I want a guy with the administrative prowess of Eric Hyman, the gentle nature of Danny Morrison and fundraising acumen of Chris Del Conte

I am going to miss Chris but he left the TCU athletic department in better shape than when he came here. You cannot ask for much more than that

Personally, I wish him well and know that our board of trustees and the athletic committee will find a great replacement

Heresy! That is wishing UT success!

Wishing him spectacular failure in no way diminishes the work he did here or our appreciation for his efforts. But wishing him well professional is like having the CIA director going to work for the GRU and wishing him well!

I hope he takes them for a ton of money, has great health and continues the fine mediocrity we’ve come to know and love in the People’s Republic of Austin...

I hire a lot of people in my job and if I've learned anything it's that your tenured employees need to have a voice...Whoever we hire better be HCGP biggest fan and GP better get to sign off..

Larry Teis.

I would say Donati is the leader in the clubhouse.

He's never been an AD

Don't you think we deserve an experienced guy in that job?

Northing against Donati, mind you but I think we need an experienced hand. Of course the BOT never asks my opinion so Donati may be the guy. Who knows?

 

[tcuwags]

LT, Wendy Davis, James Cash, Jack, Reid.

I'm thinking we really are a destination point now. Some new superstar will rise to the top and we will ne thrilled and won't look back. What a great opportunity and a great time to be a Frog!

Jeremiah Donati I trust and know he is very, very capable for the job. He learned under the best and is prepared for the job like no other. Go Frogs!!!

Wendy Davis? Please.

Now, James Cash just might be a very good candidate, but I doubt he’d be interested in taking a pay cut.

 

[Jefffrog1993]

Nick Saban my choice.

 

[Christcu]

The political ties could prove invaluable. Remember baylor.

Explain...not following you unless you mean Ann Richards?

 

[SnoSki]

Dubya!

Yes 43

 

[ifrog]

If we promote from within, I'm all aboard with Jack Hesselbrock.

Not sure if serious

The BOT doesn't ask your opinion? That I cannot believe.

 

[Peacefrog]

Kenny Hill is available and supremely qualified.

You of all people would think this. Smh.























This was a joke.

This was a joke.

but not to ifrog

Just leave an interim AD in place for the next year. This way we can take CDC back when he realizes how miserable that job in Austin can be.

 

[Brog]

I trust Boschini and the Board with this search. Remember, as CDC always said, when Morrison left they put three insane goals in front of CDC sand other candidate: (1) keep Patterson, (2) rebuild AGCS, (3) get TCU into a BCS league.

I have no doubt this search will be just as intentional and well thought out and we will see exceptional candidates and a great hire.

I agree completely. Wonder what three "insane" goals the search committee might put in front of the candidates for the job.

Wendy Davis? Good grief
