In the grand scheme of things, do we think the AD position here is seen as a good gig? Just curious what home team perspectives are on this.

On one hand:
* You're sitting on a gorgeous, relatively new on-campus facility
* You're walking into the job with a brand new stadium on the way
* Your revenue sports are generally doing okay
* Your Olympics sports aren't so bad, either
* Even when your programs aren't doing so well, it will be a while before anyone calls for your ouster
* You're a member school of the wealthiest conference in college sports

On the other hand:
* Relatively speaking, this is a pretty small-time operation
* If the Big Ten goes all Hunger Games...NU is not well positioned to survive
* Our NIL strategy is, relatively speaking, not very aggressive
* It's unlikely that our revenue sports will ever be serious contenders for anything other than "a good showing"
* Your bosses are idiots. One who clearly doesn't care a lot about sports, and the other who you will probably have to worry about getting in the way at key points

I'm asking because I like the look of Mark Jackson on paper...my only worry is the potential for him seeing NU as a stepping stone for greener pastures (that wouldn't have stopped me from taking Phillips when we did).
