Do you really think BOT members work on Sundays?
IMO, If Wolf stays on as coach for next year, no BOT meeting is needed since it is in his contract. If contract buyout is needed, approval is necessary by the BOT action in their meeting.
Since BOT plans to meet on Monday, what is that telling you.

The BOT, seeing that a 7-4 YSU team was playing at NDSU, could have met preemptively last week and established a contingency plan.....or they could meet on a Sunday. Are they prima donnas and cant work a few hours on a Sunday?
Why can MO St do it and not YSU?
And yes...the writing is on the wall for the Wolf....but that's a separate issue.
Double ET:
Nation, I think you have given BOT too much credit. They are political appointees. They typically react to situations and strategic planning and critical thinking are not their strength. This group micromanaged and ran the university for the last 5 years. They practically drove the university to the ground. I hope Tressel is allowed to run the university as its president. Otherwise, he will walk away frustrated just like Randy Dunn.

The thread on this board on a new HC was started Oct 12th. We saw it coming. There were no post-season invites for four years. Were they blindsided by the slaughter in Fargo?
I agree, they could have acted preemptively instead of reactively. That is not being hasty, it is having foresight and vision.
I would have developed a short list by now and already had informal interviews with candidates. I would have announced the termination of Wolford's contract Saturday night, and that formal on-campus interviews would start being scheduled in the near future. I'd give the new HC the valuable time he needs to acclimate and recruit his staff and players....and even recruit the fans back to the Castle...

Unless Wolford is staying.
a) will finally have his own team - J.B. still from the Heacock era.

d) can recruit more JUCO players
