What are your opinions of this guy? Is he a true AD or just a successful banker that played football with Archie? Will your opinion change if things don't pan out with Coach O?

pete is a good guy who has alot of monetary sense behind the AD job..... face the facts, schools like Ole Miss and MSU don't take in as much $$ as UT and Florida and Georgia, however, for the most part, Pete has been able to overcome this and we have some very nice football facilities and baseball ones that will be improving. As far as basketball... well, not a whole lot can be said about the Tad Pad....

Yep, they can't do the NIT deal since it will take money away from Zero. :lol:
