Hej, just remember, Frank's first choice for the job was Dennis Wolfe. He had two or three other candidates before certain influential alums steered him in DW's direction. That is not an exaggeration either. Frank has no clue Being AD means you must be on top of ALL sports. . -- Fordham Rams Basketball Message Board

Very good point Ant. Maybe I am giving Frank a little too much credit here. (NT) -- Air Hej '02, Sat March 26, 2005 12:13:25
- Hmmm, let's see. It's almost April 1st and we are "currently negotiating a contract extension". What took so long? DW and staff have been recruiting like madmen since the day the season ended and - well, here's a realistic scenario for a conversation between DW and recruit Craig Austrie: Austrie - " 'Coach, how long are you under contract to Fordham?' DW - 'Well, until the '06-'07 season'. Austrie - 'That's two years from now. How do I know you'll be there for four years if I sign'? DW - 'Well, Craig, I'm negotiating with Fordham right now for a contract extension'. Austrie - 'But, coach, every other coach I've met with has a signed contract through the time I would play at their schools'. DW - 'Well, Craig, I guess you'll just have to trust me'. Craig - 'But Coach, I just met you'. DW - 'Hominahominahomina'." zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz....................Get the picture? (NT) -- Rambacker, Sat March 26, 2005 12:50:44
  - There is no ratiional or legitimate reason that Jim lewis still has a job at this point . 5 years a mindboggling 100 losses and frank will not fire him? Why! A real AD would have canned him the day season ended and a national search started. This is disgraceful. (NT) -- Ant Hill, Sat March 26, 2005 13:09:05
