Does anyone know if his parents are still alive and still living in Morgantown? Has he been burning up the road between here and there frequently to visit them? If so, we are probably going to be looking for a new AD soon. An idle thought: I wonder if Frank would be interested in taking the AD job and then hiring his replacement. Is that too far fetched?

I think WVU is a great opportunity for him if he decides to pursue their AD position. If he leaves, he certainly has left our athletic department light years ahead of where he found it when he arrived.

Personally, I would hope we wouldn't go for Frank as AD. I like Frank as a coach, but he seems almost too loyal and afraid to make big decisions. I think he'd likely go with a coach for football out of loyalty and not go for somebody who might move the program to the next level. I think he'd hire from within.

As stated earlier, the local geography is important to him and a restraining factor. I don't believe we'll see him leave for any place that is farther from Morgantown than Ohio. Pitt would be a possibility. And, of course, there's nothing closer to Morgantown than Morgantown! :-) The only BLSS Certified Hypocrite on BA "It is better to be an optimist and be proven a fool than to be a pessimist and be proven right."

The demands of the position today require an experienced manager of multiple programs. People pretty much now have to work their way up through the system, right? Back in the old days in the South, it was fairly common for the football coach to also serve as AD. Basketball and the other sports weren't considered that important compared to football.

Schaus has been at Ohio 7 years this April and he's done what he was mainly brought into do by taking the basketball program to the next level. There is still a lot of work to be done here on the facility side of things and that may be why he's staying.

He's from West Virginia and graduated from there. Yeah Jim has the credentials to be outstanding there but part of it is you also keep your donors happy, and nothing makes a donor feel good about a guy more than "he's one of us."
