Troy did the job he needed to do when he came here and he did it well. Its now time to bring in the rah rah guy to keep the train rolling. He already lives in Cedar Falls and is the only, hands down choice.
AD Gearhart. I like the sound of it.Illinois State Fan at a St. Louis White Castle 3:45AM Saturday March 6th:
"White Castle?" "more like Black Castle..."
You stay classy Redbirds.

Re: Troy Dannen to Tulane?
Keeping Jake is vital to this. Figure out which Deputy he has the best relationship with and hire them.
Losing Jake would be absolutely catastrophic for the athletic department.
Gearhart, Schofield and Berger should be the only candidates and I'm a bit nervous that Ruud is talking about a national search. Those three bleed purple and that's what we need after Troy got the financial house in order.#MACtion

Re: Troy Dannen to Tulane?
Looks like Dannen is walking into a place that's been taken care of pretty good. They have a new practice facility, new football stadium, Dickson is going to stick around to finish up some fund-raising. The main thing Dannen has to do is hire a new head coach for Tulane.
Dannen will be introduced as the AD this Friday, but it says Dickson will step down as AD June 30, 2016.

Has also dealt with other sports (softball, tennis, soccer, track)
Let's not forget Swimming/Diving. He hired Coach Doug Humphrey who was a fantastic move. Coach Doug had been the assistant for something like 19 years at Nebraska and could have chosen lots of other schools for a head coach job.
And he has done a nice job of providing support for the non-revenue sports. We have seen it bounce back from the budgetary woes 4-5 years ago.
Dannen will be missed.

Cedar Falls to New Orleans culture shock for sure.
He will certainly eat well down there."Well, that escalated quickly."

Re: Troy Dannen to Tulane?
Besides the internal options (which I wouldn't have any issue with), who else out there has UNI ties? A short list that I can think of is Justin Sell at SDSU, Leon Costello (SDSU assistant AD, finalist at SIU), Mike Freeman (Butler), Julie Bright (Iowa State), Matt Lyons (Illinois State).The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.
