Pat Goss- Interim AD?

This is at least a credible interim stabilization move
Have to give whomever made this happen credit. Agree with the need for stabilization and in moving aside the former lead into a slot where they could do no further harm either through past actions (or inactions by dialing it in). Hopefully the group of donors/leaders working behind the scene to dampen the dumpster fire aspects of the department continue to move things forward. We have to acknowledge there are a lot of positives the last year- winning basketball and football seasons with post-season appearances, flood of money coming in, temp lakeside football facility, new stadium, etc. Just hope the positive direction continues after the blowup last year. Thanks to those behind the scene working to push the program back on track. Not done yet cleaning up the mess but definitely some good moves have been made so far.

Gragg’s got a little Maxwell Smart in him, doesn’t he?

By most objective measures, NU athletics is at the best place it’s ever been. Beautiful new facilities in several major sports, revenue program success, softball/wlax/field hockey, probably others.

And Gragg just happens to have sat in some meetings, and definitely his incompetence led to the development of one of the coolest and most unique facilities in sports this season.

Positively GGARG.

Yup. There’s still so many good things happening in our department both on and off the field. We need leadership to stop getting in its own way.
