"The facilities talk is a bunch of BS...."

Message Replied To ==========

One Last comment on Foley. I know their are some posters on this board who think the

world of Foley and support him completely. But if you really want him to succeed, you must be willing to tell him when he is wrong. He has surrounded himself with like thinkers.

As I progressed through my career, I learned that my most valuable subordinates were those that challenged every decision I made but came on board after tons of discussion.

Foley really needs this. He has let the facilities in football deteriorate to some of the worst in the conference. He has made really bad decisions in selecting football coaches and women's basketball coaches,

He has made horrible business decisions in negotiating the Contract for Muschamp.

I guarantee this alone would have resulted in his firing if he worked in the private sector.

So he really needs those who work for him to tell him when you think he is wrong.

He needs people to point out areas that need improvement even if they are not popular.

==============================

and if you think the power egos Foley deals with from big time boosters, university presidents, to championship athletes and coaches, are a bunch of yes men, well that's.... simply absurd.
