The ADs are pretty low on the list of people to find out when a school is moving conferences. Presidents and BOTs make these decisions. No AD is talking with Sankey or Petitti come on
Incorrect. Our AD has been given full autonomy on the decision to leave and which conference to join. All of the discussions between the 3 parties have already happened and the BoT and President trust him to make the best decision for the University. And yes, he is having weekly conversations with the B1G and Sankey (himself).
Bad take. You do realized that this wasn't something they said, "we're out...do what you want to do". This situation has been discussed and weighed ad nauseam internally and everybody is in agreement on what needs to be done. Not too mention that they trust the person they all hired. Poor leadership micromanages the situation.
If it’s too complicated for you to follow along, that’s a ‘you’ problem. It’s very easy, with proper context, to understand.
You’re suggesting final discussions and decisions have already been made regarding one of the more dynamic situations school leadership will face. Or, you’re just refusing to admit how dumb it is to actually have an AD in charge of such institutional decisions.
We’re about to win our fourth national championship since joining the acc in the early 90s. I never wanna leave.
They will leave at a moment we know not. For as in the days of Noah so shall the conference exit of Clemson be.
this is going to end up with something like the Pac West where they merge with some of the Mountain West. And then in 5 years, Stanford, Cal and some other schools will come back and they'll rename it again.
This is what I said should happen way back when Cal and Stanford were still in the PAC I’m apparently the MW commissioner
Cal and Stanford should be kicking themselves for tying themselves to a falling anchor when they could have just waited and made more money in the PAC west without committing to an absolutely stupid travel schedule
