Bob Stein is a friend and cares deeply about the U. He had every right to be upset with Maturi and the state of the football program, as do lots of folks. Maturi keeps hanging his hat on how well we do in the Director's Cup, when in fact, nobody really cares about that. What they DO care about is how well we do in FB, BB, and Hockey, the three money makers at the U. Our mediocrity in these 3 sports, with the exception of the Tubby hire, has most people upset. We can't be all things to all people at the expense of the major sports. Wisconsin figured this out 20 years ago and they've been to 4 Rose Bowls ever since. We need to win a conference championship in one of these Big 3 every couple of years, and that simply is not happening (not even close) That coupled with all the buy-out fiasco's and lost law suits, and now the pending one brought by the women's golf coach, have cost the U millions of dollars. If Joel were in the private sector, he'd have been shown the door a LONG time ago. Quit complaining about Bob Stein and others who simply state their opinions, just because they differ from yours. Personally, I hope Stein becomes our next A.D. though that probably makes too much sense for the U to even consider it.
