In a shocking turn of events, Loren Tate supports UofI's decision on Thomas. Seems like a good hire. Zook and Weber better hope for good seasons, though. Thomas lists "hiring good coaches" as one of his strengths. I don't think he'll wait long. Zook is going to be Bowl game or fired with 8 home games. Weber probably needs at least 1 NCAA tourney win. |

The fact that he was able to help clean up Cincy's filthy basketball program and put their football program on the map are pretty impressive resume builders. |
