EagleNYC {l Wrote}:Hopefully he's reviewing (non laminated) resumes this week. Of course I'm sure BC won't actually let him hire anyone good. I'm afraid of a garbage retread like Al Golden (he's available!) or worse.

So is Chip Kelly.

did anyone go to the jarmond event last night? thoughts? bc usually posts the video

what weird thing does he do? I'm hoping he dips his fries in mayo. as we all know, mayo and catsup don't mix

The traffic on 128 wasn't worth it to me.

I met him at the CommAve Classic he is a nice guy. Hopefully it all works out

podcast w jarmond by the globe about 15 minutes long, some actual hard hitting questions on the state of the 2 major programs. worth a listen

fyi he's speaking at the wall street council next month

it's interesting that he is not going to get to hire any revenue sport coaches for awhile

so you are saying that you think jimmy mac is safe? is this because he now fills a beaker sized hole in your heartandpants? you love him so much why don't you marry him? in fact, by the power vested in me by the universal life church; i now pronounce you man and wife... AND YOU'RE THE WIFE.

congratulations, mrs. mac. i'm sure you'll be better for him than that poseur longdistanceeagle was

I don't think Jimmy Mac is safe, but he is doing more with his last chance audition than anyone expected: win over Duke (#7)... very competitive against TT (#8), UVA (#3) and Clempsun (#19)... surprisingly good recruiting class. Now, getting their doors blown off by UNC reminds that they may still be terrible at basketball playing and the aforementioned accomplishments may have just been flukes.

i think jimmy mac is absolutely 100% safe with Tabbs and Hamilton in the fold.

I still think JC needs about 8 total ACC wins to be safe. I think he will probably get there.

I'm not so sure it comes down to wins and losses. I think Jarmond has to believe in the coach's system and if this small bit of success is sustainable.

We've seen improvement this year so far and he just had his best recruiting class. You definitely give him another year.

has your husband laminated his resume yet?

He shouldn't be safe but he is.

If the season ended today, he is and should be safe. If he goes like 4-9 down the stretch, he shouldn't be safe but will be.

Body of work. Like I said, is but shouldn't be.

Taking into account some inherent value of continuity, or the converse which is having no upperclassmen starters for several seasons again, he should be right now.

any questions for jarmond tonight?

claver2010 {l Wrote}:any questions for jarmond tonight?

none of these questions rely on each other so feel free to pick and choose

could he fire t.s. slaughter and hire someone that is more than just a gym teacher that no one else wants to work with?

could he fire jimmy mac and hire someone that understands how to coach/teach

could he hire vinny. i miss the hype that his jay z videos used to bring to game days

Can he add free tacos to the list instead of free chicken fingers

who's your favorite new kid? yeah, call me joey. oh, come on. don't make me get loose. yeah, that's right. call me donnie. oh, girl. oh, please don't go girl.

good time, make no mistake he's a fundraiser through and through. he also understands he needs to be, especially w leahyhoo etc

talked about enhancements that have happened first 7 months he's been here (indoor facility, brighton fields, beer, fueling station, academic support for athletes, working to reconnect w former athletes)

gave general sotu on sports focusing on the revenue ones. said something along the lines of 'you're either selling hope or wins and we understand w 2 of 3 revenue sports it's hope right now' (mocked the 'trust the process' line).
basketball: great home record, need to get it going on road. 4 wins in conf which is more than previous 2 years. mentioned the recruiting class coming in and jairus by name which surprised me and went on depth of his accolades.
football: good momentum at the back end of the year, just wrapped up recruiting, recruiting needs to be life blood of any program but esp fb
hockey: first place in HE but very young team (no seniors) hope they can make a run into march and L/T have the team augmented by another exciting class

1q was about why jimmy mac didn't recruit some point guard from iona prep who is playing for uva? maybe the h00ps w31rd0z can chime in on the circumstances. jarmond pivoted to 'because someone is verbally committed to another place doens't mean we stop recruiting them.

2q was about lax, thought jarmond handled it well. said honestly it's not happening. spelled out financials of title 9. i need to focus on getting marquee programs to the level of excellence that school is on the academic side

someone brought up fb recruiting (specifically this class' ranking). admitted we'll never be top 10 but recruiting needs to be lifeblood.

students: need to get them back to wearing superfan shirts. working to get logo removed cause apparently undergrads aren't wearing in fear of getting caught drinking (not sure how much i believe that but whatever works). free food, rewards for various on field/court performance (team scores X you get free tacos)

quesiton about boston fans. said sure we'll work with non bc fans in boston but we really need to work on getting bc people back to alumni / conte and that's my primary focus

might've missed some things but if any questions i'll chime in. good event.

Jim Christian is not getting fired.

The first two questions are quintessential BC fan questions.

so he gave us some trite talking points and no inspiration for future change other than more phone calls with a hand out. awesome

This is smarter than trying to win over the locals.

That's how I read this.

Jarmond is young and a College Sports insider. If you think he is going to blow it all up or rock the boat, you are fooling yourself. He's here to raise money and look good so that the next time Ohio State or some other mega school has an opening, they hire him. Would you really expect him to say "Addazio is an idiot and I am going to fire him the first chance I get"? In private conversations with the larger donors, he has implied raised expectations for JC and Addazio, but in a big meeting like this, he can't shoot his mouth off.

if he increases our funding at the rate he did at tOSU, then his hire here will be successful regardless of what else he does.
