I don’t care at all about non rev sports.
Basketball remains an absolute mess
Hafley I really like, but ultimately is unproven. Hope he works out.
Fundraising, he was good. Likely the primary reason UCLA got him.
MattTheEagle {l Wrote}:Doesn’t make much sense. Los Angeles is an absolute mess. Good weather but how is this possibly a step up from BC? It didn’t seem like BC was his destination when hired but figured once he left it would be for a factory not a a school with very mediocre sports. Maybe he really wanted to be in California? It seemed like he wanted the USC job as well.
I liked Jarmond and wanted him to stay but we can do better. He did well with the football hiring process (though gave Addazio probably one year too many) and should have fired JC long ago.

This isn't looking good. Any chance we can fire Jimmy C asap and have MJ hire a hoops coach in the couple days before he leaves?
Trying to figure out how it was her job to lose in the first place.
The only thing that she seemed to accomplish so far is keeping Tony Sanchez around long enough so that all of those Fertitta checks could clear.
When this thread first popped up, I though she may have a nice resume with a couple of smart hires. Chris Beard in March 2016 for men's hoops. Ofcoarse 3 weeks later the Texas Tech job opened up and it was the only school in his contract with UNLV that he could exercise an escape clause for.
Turns out that was the AD before Desiree got here
The hiring of local HS FB coach Tony Sanchez from Bishop Gorman, after he had built that program to a national power, wasnt about rebuilding a FB program. It was about Sanchez's ability to get the Fertitta's to pony up huge dollars for facilities. Turns out that hire was before desiree's time at UNLV too.
All she's done is fire those guys and hire an assistant from oregon as the new FB coach and some guy no one has ever heard of out of the Dakotas for hoops.
Im not sure if she even had anything to do with UNLV FB being able to play at the new Raiders Dome on the strip.
Seems crazy that she was UCLA's top choice and it seems even crazier that she is a UCLA alum and wants to stay in Vegas.
I wonder if she withdrew her name because she knew she wasn't going to get it.
It definitely looks that way.
Jarmond was always a short timer. He agreed to let Leahy be the ultimate decision maker where others asked for full control and in return he got to skip the level of being AD at the Fordhams of the world going right to a Power 5.
From the day he arrived it was just a matter of time before he left. He tried to get the USC job before even making a major coaching hire.
He got overruled on firing Addazio last year and overruled on firing JC this year. How long would you want to work under those conditions when you don't have to?
The missing piece of his puzzle was have you made a major hire? Yes, and it has been very well received.
Bye Martin. We had some nice conversations and people kept asking why I was not more enthusiastic about him and his "energy". It was because he was not really worth my time or effort.
Hopefully, UCLA just needs power bars and a fruit grab and go station. The sum total of Martin's contributions to BC! (just kidding, he was fine)

I don't know how true that is about Daz.
Someone close to the program is insisting that Jarmond did not want to fire Daz this year and was forced to by donors.

If we’re willing to shell out there’s no reason we can’t make a good hire here.

You either have no source or whomever this person is has lied to you about how close to the program he or she is.
BC does not let its donors have almost any say.
If you reread the threads I had announced Daz was fired way before anyone knew what was happening. Jarmond had made up his mind and was working Leahy for a long time to get rid of him.
If Jarmond wanted to keep Dazz Leahy would have been all for it. The faux extension last year was a compromise because Leahy would not sign off on firing and Jarmond didn't want to give him an extension.
Fr. Leahy was firmly in charge of hiring and firing.
The only thing that is plausible is Jarmond initially was hoping to get out of BC without having any major hires on his resume but that changed over time.
claver2010 {l Wrote}:i think the process of hiring someone who has had success at multiple big time programs, is viewed as a riser in the industry, etc. is a huge step forward from miami of ohio fans thanking us for hiring bates.
overall i'd give marty a b-. hafley looks good but who knows. basketball program is a clusterfuck, jc is still here and we're no closer to having an indoor facility. hockey is self sustaining and has it's donorbase that gives jerry what he wants. jarmond brought energy to a program that needed it. he also modernized the program in ways that aren't obvious (upping academic support, now more teams flying charter, etc).
thamel reporting bc made a big step up to keep him is encouraging. we'll see if that carries over.

Yup. He's above a B- but can't give him an A because of that.
Los {l Wrote}:What makes him an A? The fact that we got an extra hour tacked on to the front end of tailgating? Cool.
His one big move has yet to be evaluated. A year from now we may know if he's a B+, but we won't know he's an A unless BC somehow miraculously wins the ACC in football in the next three years.

I wish I believed that was his making.
