Is anyone on the other side of that fence? Does any poster on this site other than Green Wave show even a smidgen of support for RD? No! We all want him gone, pete! You are preaching to the fucking choir! Please give it a rest!Wavetime wrote:I'd bet everyone understands your position NP and I do respect ir. However, it's getting kinda old regardless of which side of the fence you are on.
But he is. Cowen going on sabbatical and Dickson being "permanently" employed are symptoms of the exact same problem.GreenLantern wrote:Pete, add me to the list of folks that are on board with everything you post daily (often hourly). The exception
being "fire the coaching staff now." And to that, there ain't no 'frig' in 'way', if you will. And I will.
Brevity being the soul of wit, I think I speak for most by urging you: 'less is more'.
If you want to tilt at windmills, why not rail at the exorbitant severance package that is being paid to Scott
Cowen? According to the Hulabaloo, while Cowen is on 'sabbatical', he is making $960,000 annually.
Daily requests for corrective action may result in improvement. And, hopefully, potential new readers may decide to help eliminate the "Dickson Plague" with new enthusiasm. What are we waiting for; we need to be proactive, not silent and appearing to be indifferent to Rickyisms.Dr. Rosenrosen wrote:Par for the course at Tulane. There is gross under performance and zero accountability. Wins and losses don't matter. US News rankings don't matter.
At the rate you're going, it's hourly. I'd almost be ok if you would just limit it to one daily.nawlinspete wrote:Daily requests for corrective action may result in improvement.

But another 15 years of silence and ignoring Ricky's acting out of sight guaranted will result in nothing more than "more of the same" which is exactly what we do not need.
Mediocrity ? No way.torbida wrote:Did he play any high school or college sports? Why is this turd an athletic director-he doesn't care about winning and loves to give contract extensions to fellow turds like Toledo and Conroy, insult people's intelligence with bs like his video "rap "with Rick thre Dick sessions that last only 3 videos,his bogus online q@a sh@t that is choreographed trash and my favorite "if you don't like it go across the street" which woulda got his azz fired at any self respecting school.Has anyone ever talked to this walking talking model of mediocrity?

Don't know. But just because one played sports doesn't equate to being able to hire a successful coach. IMO the most important job of any AD is to hire a solid coach and give him or her the needed support that it takes to win. Kevin White hired Rick Jones and Lisa Stockton and extended Perry Clark. He hired David Cutcliffe at Duke. Rick has hired Shawn Finney, Dave Dickerson, Ed Conroy, Bob Toledo and now Curtis Johnson. He also extended Chris Scelfo, Dave Dickerson, Bob Toledo, Ed Conroy and Curtis Johnson.torbida wrote:wonder if he had the same loser mentality he does now-"it doesn't matter if I strike out all 4 at bats" or "I drop the ball in the end zone".
