Message: [QUOTE="Adriacus, post: 3712548, member: 10787"] A current example of unqualified would be Lisa Peterson. She replaced Ceal Berry [who was immensely qualified]. Peterson is a long term athletic administrator. Was a track & field athlete in college. Served as a member of the Track & Field Committee [qualified], then the Volleyball Committee [unqualified], and now Basketball Committee [unqualified]. Given the large number of potential committee members, it isn’t unreasonable to expect that each member has some direct basketball background as player, coach, etc. and not simply being an athletic administrator. Unfortunately, too often the “athletic administrator” members are “carrying water” for their conference rather than serving as unbiased and qualified selection arbiters. Agree that each specific rule & procedure should be clearly spelled out, the adoption process made public, etc. Nothing good is done in dark corners. If rules/decisions/etc. can’t stand on their own in the light of day, they shouldn’t be followed. [/QUOTE]
