Carter got after Teague and Kaler pretty good. Said He could never find Teague and that Teague would never return his calls. He also basically called Kaler a "buck passer". Whether he pushes it to a committee or the Board of Regents, Kaler does not want to make a decision. I believe the nuece keeps getting tighter for Kaler. IMO, he is not gonna last much longer.

Well here's the thing though, I don't blame him for pushing things to committees, because if you are the only person making decisions and they go wrong and you're the only person to blame where does that get you? The way I see it, he's trying not to have things blow up in his face, but he's still trying to get things done. What I interpret his actions as is not a "I don't want to make decisions" and more of a "I think this is the right decision, but I want to make sure other people think so too", you get what I'm saying?
Basically I think if Kaler were the exact opposite, being he always made decisions by himself without the board of regents and whatnot, he would have been fired already, or would be under a lot of fire for not listening to the University's opinions. Yes maybe once and a while he should just say "I'm the president of this university and what I say goes," but he should only pull that power when it is absolutely needed. With a lot of big, policy changing decisions, you don't want to be the sole one responsible if things go wrong, nor should you be making those decisions alone in the first place.
Just my two cents
