A professional organization can act like a professional organization, or it can act like it's stuck in the past. If it does the latter the athletic director should be fired. Period.

Every pro team has a General Manager, aside from the Dallas Mavericks (interim GM), the Minnesota Vikings (currently looking to hire), & the Tampa Bay Rays (team of assistant GMs). There's no excuse for professional NCAA teams not having the same.

Chance at 2 years of eligibility, no?

Quote from: Johnny B on Today at 05:13:13 PMShaka said post game Sean isn't able to do anything other than stationary shooting drills. Doesn't seem like he'll be back this year. Given all the injuries and his size does it make sense for him to return? Can he be productive at this level?
