BigRedBuster Posted October 4, 2012 Author Share Posted October 4, 2012 Dear Mr. Eichorst.....I beg you.....PLEASE embrace our culture/history/traditions and use them to build an even better athletic department. Please don't come in and think the entire organization needs to be changed to be "yours". Quote Link to comment
VectorVictor Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Yup. If Eichorst is it, though, it doesn't sound like he's being hired due to his body of work at CriminalU--more likely because of the work he did under Alvarez. The locals down there weren't too complimentary of him, to say the least... Also, along with the reports of his resignation, are rumors that a couple of current staff members under him also retired. Perhaps Eichorst is bringing assistants with him? Miami board link Miami board link 2 Washington Post Article Quote Link to comment

da skers Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 I'm not to god awful worried. I'm sure Tom has had a pretty big voice in the process. I'm sure the right choice is being made. It has to be, because Tom won't be able to save us again. I wonder what this guy will think about a full stadium to look at on gameday? I don't believe he was Tom's choice. It doesn't mean he won't support it but its not who he recommended. HP is doing this one on his own. He's also made a few big boosters upset (on the surface) with the hire because its not their guy. I think eveyone gives this guy a chance because of the recommendation of BA. Quote Link to comment
husker B-rent Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 First task as new AD for Eichorst: keep Paul Meyers. paul meyers may stick around but he is not getting the job because he and TO have gotten into more than one argument recently, mostly about modernizing traditions etc. Quote Link to comment

Edit: He was actually one of 3. Quote Link to comment

BleedHuskerRed Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 As K. Kugler noted on Twitter, abruptness of Osborne press conference now makes some sense, Pearlman had his guy. Quote Link to comment

Goal-line Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 So, you all think this is a done deal? Unless TO puts his stamp of approval on it, not going to happen. Quote Link to comment
MinnwiscowaSker Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 FYI, his Miami bio says at the end of the first paragraph that he resigned today: http://www.hurricanesports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=28700&ATCLID=205562149 Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted October 4, 2012 Author Share Posted October 4, 2012 I'm trying to picture how this is going to work. TO said he is sticking around till January 1st. That is three months away. If this guy has already resigned from his present post, it sounds like an announcement of his hire here could be within the next few days. How will this work between him and TO over the next 90 days?

zoogs Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Pissing off boosters already. Atta boy pearlman. I've never liked the idea of boosters running a program with their money to the extent that they dictate our hires. Hire the best man for the job from a standpoint of how well he'll do the job. Also, the speed of the new AD hire suggests that Perlman knew about Tom's retirement well in advance (not surprising) and that he's been working on this one for a while. 1 Quote Link to comment
