The below link is not directly related to Troy football but is an example of what good leadership can do and what poor leadership can do. The Pac 12/ Big 12 could easily be substituted with CUSA / SBC a year or two ago. Even we at Troy saw what poor leadership under ("the one name never to be uttered") did in three years. Link a couple poor leaderships together and ANY organization be it a business or in this case a football conference can suffer terribly. I am not saying ANYTHING about the politics of the day but the following in the link is a great example of spin and short succinct dialogue and analysis which provides a different perspective if not simply an opposite one. I hope you will enjoy it from a critical perspective of people doing a terrible job and getting called out by a press that SHOULD always ask good questions. . PS there is a paraphrase toward the end about what kliavkoff says......... I was walking and bust out laughing at his summation of what was actually being said. Lastly the parallel of what the SBC should stand for and let anyone else who may join should know about the conference to the Big 12 is dead on.

you can skip to about 4 mins if it bores you a tad at the beginning.

Realignment part 78 kicking off tomorrow with Colorado to Big 12 soon after likely Arizona. Good product trumps idiots. SBC should be able to bypass this round

Finebaum says: It's over for PAC 12 DUH Old TV contracts were based on cable packages. That has gone down A LOT. So, unless you be BIG 10 and SEC with massive viewership of top games the pie "shrunked" a big chunk. Good leadership said: Lets cut the line and get our deal done before those "arrogant Bas..... out West. Meanwhile PAC 12 (soon to be PAC 6) caught with pants down due to their arrogance and stupidity. My point is how important it is to hire people who know which side of the bread college in general is buttered. Athletics is an important part. Academics is the goal but the butter that makes your institution more desirable to folks is that athletics thingy. What drives athletics? Football. Let's never hire another dweeb.!

Not sure what a "dweeb" is but `in the above writers opinion, it's probably not good
