And avoid personal attacks on the AD. The administrators like the AD. He is well regarded by many administrators and benefactors. It's not about the AD. It's about improving our current system. -- Fordham Rams Basketball Message Board

In reply to: JoltinJoe 's message, "Great suggestions. Also, get the United Student Government involved. The administration will take your efforts more seriously if your elected student leaders are behind this. They are supposed to function as the student's voice to the administration. This will give you more credibility." on Tue April 12, 2005 14:15:31

Joe, Frank is despised by many benefactors and adminsirators that I know personally. Also, he has run programs that consistently lose and consistently come in at the bottom or near the bottom of the A-10 across the board. In spite of very competitive budgets. His arrogance and his attitude towards many is why he gets attacked personally. He is responsible for two ( 2 ) of the worst university decisions in the school's history ( Patriot League, Bob Hill ) and he goes on public radio complaining that their are enemies within his own organization preventing him from performing. There are valid reasons he gets personally attacked. Let's get a little bit realistic here. (NT) -- '85, Tue April 12, 2005 15:23:19

  - How do you account for Frank's astonishing longevity, given the lackluster results under his watch? Frank has been a part of Fordham for nearly forty years, and he has built his fair share of goodwill. Attacking Frank, as a strategy for change, has limited upside. An overall positive message and vision is more important. (NT) -- JoltinJoe, Tue April 12, 2005 19:09:03

    - One disturbing but logical conclusion: Frank has pleased his bosses over the years. I've always believed that what you see is what was wanted. How else do you explain so many years of losing records? (NT) -- Rambow, Wed April 13, 2005 15:03:47
      - Frank doesn't make waves and goes with the flow. He also let's Jeff Gray do his Woody Hayes act without a peep. Any real AD would have been gone years ago with that dark cloud hanging over his head. We will never get a top flight AD if the position reports to Gray or any VP. The new AD must be a VP reporting to the President. (NT) -- Rambacker, Wed April 13, 2005 15:13:20
