LadyGriz Holsinger on Leave

I don't know if he needs to go this minute, right, but I think Haslam's tenure needs to be looked @ very closely--after the Stitt hiring/firing, the extension turned into uncalled for firing of Shannon that ultimately cost our alma mater $350,000, the floundering volleyball and softball programs, and now whatever is happening with The Lady GRIZ BBall HC being placed on administrative leave, I for one wouldn't shed too many tears if Kent Haslam was shown the door !!!

For what it’s worth, at first glance it’s appearing he may have righted the softball ship with his last hire. Granted the bar had been lowered quite a bit and it’s waaaayyy too early to know for sure but she definitely looks like the right fit right now.

Fumble?Throw a INT? Three point shot don't make it to the rim? Softball gives up 20 points in the first inning? Volleyballers can't jump higher than the net? Whatever.
Blame Haslam. Scapegoats are very useful. 😂👌

Haslam hires the people that are in charge of recruiting and coaching these players that are missing 3's, giving up 20 runs in the first inning and the coaches shoving their assistant coaches after starting 1-3 in conference play (allegedly). He also sets the budgets and direction the whole athletic department takes. It's not all his fault and I'm not calling for his job but he does deserve a good portion of the blame for UM athletics falling well behind many other schools in our conference.

I'm not pro or con. I see him as not aggressive 'Whistlers Mother' type who avoids conflict. A patient politician. Guess he knows the 'donor class' pretty well as he's been here a long time.
 
Haslam is a passive p#ssy that needs to go. It's readily apparent how our athletic program as a whole has declined on his watch. I'm not saying he's terrible, just that it's clearly time for a change. A new vision and philosophy is sorely needed.
 
From a trusted source via church. Incident did not involve player. Holsinger shoved female assistant coach into wall. Players refused to play for him.

He’s toast.

We have heard a lot of what's being posted. We will leave it to UM admin to fill the rest in.

On another note, we have also heard Holsinger has left Missoula and is in Boise with family.

This tells us it's not a "PERSONAL LEAVE" but "PLACED ON LEAVE" both phrases have been mentioned. Which one is truth is up to UM admin to share.

Holsinger is toast and if the LG keep playing inspired....the answers to the issue are in the production.

We are almost certain that now all assistant coaches are on same page as acting HC. Production and energy show. Tonight and v MSU should give indications to that


The real question is where does the Holinsger issue that has come to light, affect the AD at UM. He made this hire and from our sources made this hire without consulting the committee he and the athletic dept put i place for the hire.

From out sources that commitee wasn't even considered a voice in the hire. He just wanted to move on from the last regime.

So again, the UM administration doesn’t just get to decide what gets shared and certainly not what is “truth.” Any spin or intentional misinformation should be called out.

Huh? Nothing to do with anonymous sources. As a public entity UM doesn’t get to just up and decide to not release public information. There may be some information considered private but Holsinger holds a position of public trust that greatly diminishes his expectation of privacy, particularly if he did something illegal in the course of his job. If there was in fact an altercation the release of information could be pressed including suing for its release.
 
FOIA: Freedom of Information Act.

My suspicion is if we don't see UM release some information soon on Coach Holsinger and his alleged transgression(s), we will see the Montana media pool some $ and file a FOIA lawsuit--while the lawyers on egriz obviously know more about this than me, I think Grizzinator is right.

Whenever I see you using "we" when posting here, all I can see in my head is this duo (Please don't take this as a slight, it's just funny to me):

Now, back to your regularly scheduled arguments.

The posters above cite anonymous sources and also use screen names to remain anonymous. They circulate rumors and what “we” have “heard.” Accurate information based on attribution will eventually be released. And I think it is better to wait for reliable, credible information. I understand the balancing test under the Montana Constitution re the right to know vs. right to privacy, but that’s not what I was talking about. I just don’t put a lot of stock in the anonymous pitchfork and torches crowd.

Time will tell.

No runors spread here orher than stating things in LG land weren't right....prior to the suspesion or Leave being put in place.

We belive Holsigner being places on leave backs up our statement of LG not being kn a good spot.

No pitch fork was used in our statements.
