Frank has become a political institution at this point and serves as the designated javeline-catcher on all matters pertaining to athletics, even the things he has no control over (such as facilities investment decisions). Fordham's Administration moves slowly but they're not stupid. Since they haven't fired Frank for performance then it's clear that it's not as important to them as some other perceived benefit of keeping him on. I think any argument for his removal should be made based on the vision for the future and how we need new leadership to take us to that next level, instead of impugning his character and focusing on the past. Let's keep it professional and future-focused. -- Fordham Rams Basketball Message Board

In reply to: J92 's message, ""no one makes an intelligent case against him"??? The stats alone should be intelligent enough to get him fired. If there was a case to be made then even Marcia Clark could win this battle. I think the real question is.. Has the administration ever called him to the carpet for his continually sub par leadership and lack of any sustainable success? I find it hard to believe they have. If there has been a trial questioning the competence and efficiency of our AD then the witnesses have not been from this message board. I find it insulting that you believe that no one on this board makes an intelligent case against our AD. We are all Fordham grads and mostly rational, informed and intelligent people." on Mon April 11, 2005 23:59:12
