Athletic Director Dave is fired up

Note the Super Big Gulp on the table.

This guy is great. Marketing really well. He's got a giant Mountain Dew while claiming to be all jacked up. Just great stuff.

I like that he's the visionary and all this other staff has been hired to help make it reality. This guy isn't pushing paper. He thinks up cool stuff, relates to the fans and interacts with us directly and indirectly. That results in donations and ticket sales. He is all over the content on this web site and there is so much good insight here. He is smart enough to use it to improve the program and engage fans. Just an awesome display of competence and amazingly, he is doing exactly what many of us said the AD should be doing. The fans know what they want. Great hire by Herbst, great job by Dave.

ADD is exactly what UConn needed!!! To bring back REv2 was financially and athletically a stroke of genius. He knew that BD had to go. I dread the Hathaway days!!!!

Newman Architects?

Probably related to soccer/baseball/softball is my guess.

Yet another confirmation that AD Dave reads the Boneyard.

 

[Hoophound]

Exactly. AD Dave, please let us know what you have for lunch. Thanks.

The day he says he is at Bidwells for lunch. A bucket and some rolling rock ponies. That will be the peak.

If he tweets a picture of the sacreds before a key game the mojo would be like a tidal wave.

Ideally, ADD doesn't tweet from Electric National Blue

Read yesterday in the Courant about AD Dave starting his day off with pop instead of coffee. Those Double Gulps of Dew are great. Right up until he gets his first kidney stone.

Random, but I've read that Bill Gates is a Diet Coke nut and he has one to start his mornings. Things worked out pretty well for him.

What pains me is if we had this guy 7 years ago we would be in the ACC right now.
Better late than never I guesa

More than 7. He needed to succeed Perkins.
