    Fair enough Derek, but IMO this ends very badly. Her own hire reeks of political correctness run amok. She is more likely to hire a transgender Todd Turner than a Jeremy Foley.

    I can't say I'm optimistic based on the above photos

    My boss now is a woman. Just not a Subaru lesbian. Can't wait to interview with her.

    What could go wrong?
    I could wear a tuxedo and call her Pan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXn6sM4uX7c

    Like, I am super liberal and suspect that she is a great president of the UW in a lot of ways. She still scares the shit out of me when it comes to making this hire. Obviously you can't judge a book by its cover but it is simply rare to find people who rise to a high level in academics who recognize the value of football.

    We'll find out more how she thinks from the hire, but after a succession of old, rich, white guys (Gerbs, McC, Emmert, the Mormon guy) that actively sabotaged or ignored the program, I'm willing to wait for her to mess up first before crying wolf.

    I'm fine with giving her a chance but the millisecond there's any p.c. bullshit (ex: a hiring committee including the dean of the tranny studies dept) or just plain stupidity, it's time to go nuts.

    She does seem way less stuffy than most academics, which is a good sign.

    Was run out of Texas: Image > Talent

    Could be a fit here and would pay huge dividends in helping land Texas recruits
