    Moddy played that exchange flawlessly. I would say like Christian Laettner against Kentucky in 1992, but I wouldn't besmirch Moddy with such gay overtones.

    :)

    Somewhere, a round bald man is running away from boots with his hands in the air, looking to hug Grant Hill.

    Any of them internal? I know any of the three ASEs there could do the job more than capably, but if upper management wants to reinvent the wheel, their in-house experience immediately becomes a liability.

    I smell a Gannett hire.

    It's official. I pulled out of the running for the gig.

    Sources says five candidates, one internal, still in the hunt. Three have interviewed, two to go.

    The voices in my head are telling me that board favorite Doug Roberson is one of the finalists. One in house, one from elsewhere. No idea about the final two.

    Interesting.
    I know who I'd hire but I don't work there and I'm not on the committee.

    I believe Ms. McDaniel has been promoted and is no longer in sports - the promotion was not just getting out of sports. Someone correct if I'm wrong.

    And newblood, that's some seriously detailed info. I'm impressed. I don't suspect your brass will be but that's your issue and not mine.
