President Steve is much, much more than a "soccer guy". Did you know after Seton Hall he wanted to be an Athletics Director on the college/university level? He received an NCAA scholarship to UNC Chapel Hill where he earned an athletics related Masters degree. Then went on to USC where he worked in the athletics department, and then to Princeton where he worked in athletics and even did some significant fund raising for the department. Did you know after this he earned a terminal degree at the University of Pennsylvania (Law) because he realized he wanted to rise higher in the Academics world? Did you know he came to Canisius after a solid career as the right hand man to the President of the largest Catholic university in the country; DePaul University in Chicago (where they know quite a lot about D-1 basketball). We should hope we get the next Bob MacKinnon (became the NY Nets G.M.) or John Beilein (HOF coach).

Yes I know he has a great resume as an administrator . That doesn’t mean anything as far as picking a basketball coach. There is no guarantee is all I’m saying. Maybe we get lucky.

The problem here is low enrollment and no money.

Oh really? I remember one selection where where a couple of the committee members were star players during their student days and were convinced, as the other members were, that the selected applicant was by far the best. He was hired. He was a turd in the punch bowl. Steve Stoute must a principal in the selection process, IMO and I bet a lot of others. His life story is remarkable. That means everything, especially these days.

And Tom was then let go. Time to get with the times. Stop living in the past. I don’t care who they beat today I am still not willing to extend Reggie's contract.....
