McDevitt?? - TOPSTRAIGHT - 03-30-2021 03:58 PM

Is he staying for sure?

1st year-- 11-21

2nd year-- 8-23

3rd year-- 5-16 (one of those against div.3 Covenant)

Not trying to start anything-- just wanted to know.

RE: McDevitt?? - WKUFan518 - 03-30-2021 06:20 PM

He hasn’t been fired yet? Than doubt he will now..

RE: McDevitt?? - UAB Schnauzer - 03-30-2021 10:20 PM

he lost in the first round of the ncaa, cit, and nit in three straight years. mtsu is lucky to have him

RE: McDevitt?? - Ewglenn - 03-31-2021 09:20 AM

He isn’t going anywhere. This administration doesn’t care about throwing away money on garbage coaches.

RE: McDevitt?? - MT FAN - 03-31-2021 11:18 AM

We have idiots running our athletic department and university, so of course he will stay just like Stockstill.

Can't afford buyouts. Plus our AD apparently loves mediocrity.

Stockstill is mediocre. The above looks longingly up at mediocre.

President made the hire.

McDevitt makes $750,000

President a puppet for UT-knoxville, who want us to do poorly

UAB fans can sympathize with that situation. Hopefully, MTSU’s football program won’t have to die before it changes for the better.

Is it not better with your own BOT?

No, it has been a LOT worse. They could not even procure a FREE law school that was coming our way from Valparaiso. UT folks shot it down (and undergraduate UT student was one of the votes),

BOT chair is best friends with our AD. Second in command on BOT is very good friends with President. Good 'ole boy network.

KajunRaider: Our BOT did not lose the Law School. They voted to accept Valpo's Law School. THEC had the ultimate power not our BOT. When the matter was presented to THEC, the UT student 03-puke and the former Mayor of Memphis 03-nutkick ( A. C. Wharton, acting on behalf of U of M), the Comptroller of the State of TN (a Vandy Grad 01-wingedeagle) and a couple of other UT Law folks; all voted
"No" to insure that Little Middle stays in our place. The failure was McPhee's inability to persuade THEC. He also never attempted an arrangement with Nashville School of Law (unlike his predecessor, Dr. James Walker). His failure to acquire a Law School before Belmont and Lincoln Memorial opened up shows how short sighted our President is.

Until we get more representation within the state legislature (i.e. grads with law degrees), I'm afraid it will be more of the same.

This is the worst period, athletically, at MT in my memory (mid-70's). How those in power remain in power is certainly a conundrum.

I have lost interest.

That is every G5. The Gov right now is a Marshall Grad but then again Jim Justice is a horrible representation. Marshall finally acquired R2 status just 2 years ago in March of 2019. And fought the state capitol every step of the way to do it. If Marshall would have had just partial help Marshall could have had R2 status 20 years ago. But that was never going to happen with a WVU packed WV legislature. Especially since WVU had just achieved R2 status in 1996. No way were they interested in helping Marshall gain R2 status just 4-5 years later.

I just don't understand why states don't want ALL of their universities to achieve their utmost potential.

Boggles my mind.

It's not hard to understand when you have half of the country fighting against any kind of public education and for so called "Charter Schools", where they get to pick the curriculum. The actual war on education in this country has been going on since the early to mid 70s.

Too many people see the success of others as a potential threat to the "flagship".

At least y’all’s university is under the control of your state legislature-which you can vote on...

Our’s is under the thumb of Beijing, with CCP officials showering praise on our president.

McPhee has also worked to strengthen MTSU's international undergraduate and graduate student enrollment, expanded its study-abroad and cultural opportunities and developed research collaboration with international partners.[1] China Agricultural University in Beijing awarded McPhee its highest academic award (Honorary Professor) in May 2007.[1] He was appointed in October 2010 as senior advisor to the Chief Executive of Hanban-Confucius Institute Headquarters in Beijing.[1] A book of his photographic essays, China: Through the Eyes of A University President[1], published in July 2012, was sponsored by the Hanban-Confucius Institute and released internationally.[1]

I'm too old to lose interest (although my current level of interest is on life support). But, I agree that we need more MT alums with Law degrees in our state legislature. We also need less people in the legislature who kneel to UT. Not sure that will ever happen either.
