I don't have a list to choose from but there are some major issues that must be addressed. Some are unique to the UM and some are due to the nature of college athletics.
1. Clean house. Get his own team; those Coyle can trust and depend on going forward. The AD has not been viewed favorably and its been publicized that former players and coaches have concerns. Are guys like Najarian and Hutton worthy of positions in the AD and can they help with alumni relations?
2. Hit the fund raising trail hard and lock in more donors. If he can do that in a short period of time, others will pay attention and he will get off on a good start.
3. Address the football donation fiasco. From this site and others, it appears that many long time ST holders did not renew. Welcome them back and push hard for a sell out this Fall.
4. Obviously mens hoops and Pitino have to be very high on his to-do-list.
5. Fill the student section and take a hard look at the tailgate policy.
6. Work with Kaler and the Regents to shelf any motions to allow the Regents to control salaries. This is Coyle's job with Kaler's backing.
7. Start a short list of coaches to contact for future hires. His message is be accountable to pack your bags.
8. Finalize any current discrimination issues and move forward.
9.
Your turn.
