Silvertip said:Tinkle, Coach K, Hauck, Selvig, O'Day, etc. Can't we bring to a halt UM's in-bred and incestuous approach to filling athletic department positions? It's worse than the Hapsburgs and the Windsors. I have nothing particularly against any of the individuals, but isn't it time for UM to act like a D-1 institution and open up their searchs so they are national in scope? As it is, I'm not sure they always get the best person with their cozy habit of hiring "homies".

Selvig wins 700 games and controls the conference for 20 years, bringing the ladies program to a level unseen in this area, LK coaches us to NCAA tourney victory, Glenn wins Nat'l Championship, Hauck extends playoff record, etc...Of course, the coach from outside the family turns out to be Pat Kennedy, whose record is trumped only by Ted Kennedy's driving record---
