John Currie on Leading with Integrity

I know that he got $2.5M to go away, but it’s still just unfathomable to me as to how he went from the new UTAD to being unemployed in only a matter of 9 months.

I simply did not think that such would ever be possible, especially at Tennessee, almost under any circumstance, save some unforeseen and earth-shattering personal scandal. Absent that, it’s honestly amazing how quickly and terribly he screwed this up, and himself out of this gig.

But, just like that, he goes from Golden Boy to disgraced has-been. I’m not saying it isn’t well-deserved, but damn, that’s a monumental fall.

It’s interesting to watch him to be so clearly auditioning for a new gig, and using all of the buzzwords that such requires.

Poor title.


"John Currie on being the first guy rode out on a rail following Haslem"

 

Fair.

 

So clearly being pimped for the next job.

 

Honestly. He was just doing what he was told by the guy mainly responsible for him having the position to begin with.

In a rare occurrence he backed the wrong horse at the wrong time. He normally "wins" out.

 

It just oozes reclamation project, doesn’t it?

 

It does, but sometimes things/people are just too damaged to be salvaged.

 

It’s going to be very, very hard for him to explain how he went rogue on a KState booster’s plane, was completely out of pocket for so long that they feared for his personal safety, and that he not only didn’t immediately come home when instructed by the Chancellor...but even kept meeting with coaches.

Surely some small school sees his legit experience, and gives him a chance....but I can’t fathom any large school ever giving him the time of day.

 

A small school is his only prayer, imo.

 

The man is a guest lecturer at college now. He's got it made

 

Yeah. Same for the coach he fired.

 

Now Wake Forest’s AD.

 

Good thing they don't care about sports.

 

The power of twitter.

 

midnight on Saturday news leak. That's impressive.

 

Now Trumpet blower can have his new dream job at Wake Forest

 

[uck fay] no. Don't bring that steaming pile of shit here.

 

How do you like Winston? With a couple years away now I still really like that town.

 

Excited about your team's new hire?

 

Never became a fan at all, I like the town though.
