This just proves to me that once you reach a certain level as a collegiate athletics officer, you are granted a lifetime of opportunities as a retread. Very similar to the position of head coach in professional sports.

I cannot get over how dumb of a hire this was. This may be the final nail the coffin that contains my give a damn for Aggie athletics.

I know you guys are geniuses because after all you are posting on Texags - but why is this pathetic?
Young up and comer, SEC experience, improved the Ole Miss AD while there...

There really is no way to rationalize this hire. Bjork is damages goods.

I just took a dump after morning coffee. Figured something of substance should populate this thread.

That is all.

How is he a retread who has been given a lifetime of opportunities? He's one of the youngest guys in the field (at one time he was THE youngest), and he's moved up in both title and caliber of university/athletic department with each new job.

So many overreactions. The sports that matter have good coaches right now so its not like hes going to do much.

Thanks for forfeiting your right to celebrate when Jimbo brings home a trophy; leaves more party for the rest of us!

A lot of people that have very little knowledge of what it takes to be a good AD think this is underwhelming based on the school he was at before. However, based on doing his job as Athletic Director, this seems like a solid hire. Jimbo of course had input in this.

I remember I used to mow the yard for Mrs. Davis for $1.50 and then I went up to $3.00.

Don't know much about the guy, guess we will have to see what he does here.

This thread is two hours old, the OP has posted three additional times...and has yet to give even the slightest reasoning for his original posting.

OP: "This hire sucks!"
Texags: "Why?"
OP: "Shut up!"

AD hires can't be judged before they get some time on the job. They operate behind the scenes and there are too many work environment dynamics not made public. I thought Hyman was a brilliant hire and the guy didn't do anything. I thought Woodward was a crony hire and he turned out really good.

Give the guy a chance.

this was certainly a quick hire.

and a very quiet hire.

wonder if some folks looked at the situation at t.u. with Perrin...and decided it was best to move quickly and only have an interim A.D. for a few weeks

The guy is well-respected in the industry. It's a good hire. The best AD's stay out of the way . . . this is what he does . . .

Maybe he was the only guy who checked the box, "Can work with John Sharp". Beggars can't be choosers. Give him a chance.

Since TexAgs is pissed off, that must mean it is a great hire!

Please let this be the "final nail in the coffin" and then stop sharing your opinions on TexAgs. That would make the hire completely worthwhile.

Buford T only time will tell, I'm sure when you hired out with your new job there were naysayers that commented to others, boy what a pathetic hire. But I bet you have proven them wrong, correct?
I figure if Jimbo was involved in the hire, I'm going to chill and watch this plan all play out.
