    They should. Jurich and Petrino supposedly can't stand each other either

    Why is Jurich considered to be the best AD in country by some here? I've always wondered.

    Something gives.

    If the $ doesn't like you and the AD doesn't either, hard to imagine how he gets in the door for an interview if both is true.

    He has the current national championship trophy for basketball in the trunk of his car.

    He's coming off of a 12 win football season a year after winning the Sugar Bowl.

    Some people are impressed by stuff like that.

    Yeah, he's other become a likeable guy all of a sudden or the reports of his being a candidate aren't true

    he also realized he had a hot commodity at football coach and raised the necessary funds to make him one of the highest paid coaches in the country despite being in a shit low paying conference.

    He hired Petrino and became relevant in football. He dealt with Petrino leaving by hiring a guy that could clean up the mess and then hired a guy that would win a lot of games after that.

    He went out and hired Pitino to coach his basketball team.

    He managed to get Louisville into the ACC.

    He's also got a baseball team coming off of a CWS appearance and a Women's basketball team that lost in the finals last season and is currently in the top 5, so pretty much everything he is touches turns to gold.

    Jurich just fell down the list of best AD's for me.

    This. He's historically not afraid to aim high on his hires. He's not afraid to pay for quality.

    In other words, he's the anti-Dave Hart.

    This seems like a bargain bin pick. Good value, I suppose, but doesn't scream "big spender".
