Boise State Fires AD

[NavyBlue]

I know that Boise is no longer a Big Sky or FCS team but I thought Griz fans might be interested, nonetheless.

It surpised me, because of all he has done for that program. I wish he would have been hired by Utah State back in 1982, that is for sure.

That is surprising. He helps build a football powerhouse and is brought down by a women's tennis infraction .

There was some other stuff going on.. boosters were holding money back because of the AD.. differences in opinion.. I think the tennis infraction was the straw that broke the camels back.

I was shocked when I heard this. I wish him the best. Ironic, when Boise struggles again, many of those same boosters will be bitching about them not being good enough. Sorry, but unless it was something major, the boosters need to butt the "F" out.

At least if O'day ever moves on, and we do make "the" move, we know there is a candidate that did this already.
