I don’t think Verge has any authority over the search. Sounds like he wanted a PC to “seize him moment”

I have a feeling he’ll get emotional and hire Frank Wilson or Kelvin Sheppard.

We won't know the result for a few years.

It is not going to be a big-time name with a flawless resume.

We are searching for stability of any type right now, and understand their messaging, but I don't see Verge being entrusted with this decision... Too much money at stake...

He has already been told whom to hire.

Verge shouldn’t be employed at LSU. But guess he has dirt on everyone.

Had a working relationship with Verge many many years ago, doubt he has changed too much since then other than how we all do.

Verge is a serious man who doesn’t take many things lightly. From that perspective, I understand why he was promoted through the years as administration changed. The ADs could rely on him to get things done correctly without following up.

If Verge is leading this search, I very much doubt it will be based on friendships and connections. I think he would likely fall more into the analytical and research camp. However, I do think if there is a concern here, it would be the sell side to the coach. But maybe that is where the good ole baws CEOs come in.

I have no idea how Verge will do during his time as interim AD, but I do know that shite will get done and there will be no question about priorities. If you look back a few administrations ago, you will remember that isn’t always what ADs are concerned about.

Just a friendly reminder that Verge is married to a Morial, daughter of the beginning of the decay of Nola and sister of the current CEO of the National Urban League and further decaying of NOLA.

Maybe you don't understand the thread you created. You asked a question like he's not smart enough to hire a great coach. I gave a snarky answer.

I'm sorry I should have worded it differently. Can you explain in further detail what you mean? I do not personally know Verge, but it seems like you do.

Yes I do.
I feel much better after listening to this morning's press conference.

Verge knows what he is doing and I am happy with the people on the committee.
Now, if the Governor can just take a Latoya style vacation for about a month we will be okay.
