I'm under the assumption that folks that have been underperforming in that office don't actually know or believe that they have been underpeforming

I have a feeling he will get a lot of teams to Denton that the last guy was too lazy to bother with.

I will admit to thinking I would have preferred Teague for having been the head man at AD long enough to see how his decisions turned out. But I can live well with Baker. Seems like an up and comer. Wonder if he can get his old boss to bring Baylor to play in Denton.

According to this story Wren Baker had a salary of $230,000 as of last summer as Missouri's Deputy AD.  For comparison, RV was in the $300k base salary range according to published reports.

Guess would be that we pay the new AD around $350,000 base plus an incentive plan to get total compensation north of the $400,000 clip.

A personal friend of mine who is on staff at Mizzou just notified me that he had a meeting scheduled with Mr. Baker today but it's been canceled.  He suspects it's due to an announcement that he's leaving.

I await final announcement.  Early breaking MGB stories had Fran (is that the right name) as the 100% for sure basketball head coach and Doug Meacham as the football coach.  I wasn't around, but I'd wager the MGB announced Jim Harbaugh as the football coach for the 2007 season too.  

My faith lies in my perception that I don't see any dicking around or political capital hunting on this.

      Doesn't seem new, but unlimited transfers

      I can't blame them, the system in place allows them to profit and to move freely. We may not like it, but it's the system. I'm hoping schools taking over the collectives, it's already happening for reasons I stated above, will usher in contracts and buy outs for players. We've opened Pandora's box so we aren't going back to amateur sports, the best we can get out of it is payment on our investments.

      Agree, there was some semblance of programs doing the right thing and following the rules even though they were always getting busted for violations, and everyone knew cheating was going on. It's why I was saying the veil is off now, and making everyone play by those rules has supercharged the whole thing. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the schools aren't supposed to work with NIL collectives to get players right? But everyone including UNT is 100% working with these collectives to send out deals to players. Same kind of fake rule following like we used to have, just more of it now.

      I’m not the type who’s going to say, “I’m done with college sports” and that be it. I’m moreso the guy whose interest is just going to wane to the point that I don’t watch anymore. It would actually free up a lot of time that I could be more productive🤣🤣
