NEW: Regents Meeting, Benson Decision, Investigation Report -- Monday, 6/12

[The Alabaster Yak]

Some people thought "no earlier than 2:30" meant "at 2:30".

The memo actually said "no earlier than 2:00pm"... Figured a 2 hour buffer was enough to bring it up...

 

[leftybuff]

I think they want the public session to coincide with happy hour.

Jesus tap dancing Christ they better not **** this up.

 

[patebuff]

I can't really think of a good reason why executive session would take this long. Unless they are deciding on giving RG a lifetime contract!

6 hours into the meeting, the public session hasn't even started

 

[Kronah]

Will not reach a decision today per Howell, this has all gone balls up.

EDIT- Not even holding a public session.

 

[Jens1893]

just **** the **** off

 

[SuperD]

The length of the the private session is not giving me warm fuzzy's. Starting to think we're going to shoot ourselves in the foot again.

 

[SerenityBuff]

CU continues to be its own worst enemy.

 

[prime teets]

Hahahaha

 

[Duff Man]

Holy ****

 

[Shldr2Shldr]

Seriously.


What. The. ****.

 

[WasianCU]

No way

 

[Highlander]

The optics aren't that great to supposedly handle this issue with concern and at the same time ratify Coach MM's agreement.

Do I have it right this was a special session? It may be they realize they couldn't handle this topic on the regularly scheduled meeting on June 15-16 and delay ratifying MM's contract.

Well I doubt Benson is going anywhere since he is to "outline the changes and recommend appropriate actions on the other CU employees".

Benson's job was never at issue... It was DiStefano

 

[g_mo821]

Tempted to email the regents, just wasting time and money. The hired lawyers were $1,200/hr

Not okay to jerk people around like this. I've seldom seen anything like this.

Good call, go them confused.

 

[g_mo821]

97 page report, won't be public. Mike MacIntyre, Rick George and Phil DiStefano were all present for at least part of today's regents meeting

Or about 1k per page.

Announce the date of the announcement.

Bump

 

[g_mo821]

Bump

 

[cu3x]

If the report brought good news, this would have been resolved quickly and painlessly. Somebody doesn't want that result and wants to put some hurt on football and the AD. Arguing for 6+ hours means the devil is on the loose

 

[CitizenKane]

Actually I am going to disagree with people. The tone of the announcement and its primary focus was on policy changes. I think this is good news for everyone but Phil and that we will see an announcement about his departure prior to the next session. Then MM will get his extension.

 

[onealcd]

Yeah hopefully it is more about confirmation from benson about Phil D getting axed, otherwise I have no idea.

 

[CB17Cubed]

Look I agree that I hope it's a change in policy and that Phil gets the boot, but if they f this up and cost us Coach Mac and Rick George, I'm done with CU. The board of regents just doesn't care about athletics, they despise it.
