Z.I.P. Posted July 14, 2011 Report Posted July 14, 2011 I always thought Mike Bobinsky was a positive influence on our athletic program, though I think he left in fairly short order. How do people feel his sitting at the head of the NCAA BB Committee will impact Akron and the MAC? It sure can't hurt! The Muskies are coming to Hawaii for the first time this year for the Diamond Head Classic. Hope he makes the trip. I wanna thank him for the 2-guard. Quote

But in KD's offense, there'll be plenty of minutes to go around. Here is another Katz piece on Bobinski. This one can start another scheduling thread! Quote
zip37 Posted July 15, 2011 Report Posted July 15, 2011 Too bad Bobo never got the hiring of a basketball coach down pat until he got to X. [He hired Hipsher]. Quote

I don't personally know anyone who views our athletic success in a positive light during his tenture.My recollection is that Bobinski's mis-step wasn't the hiring of Owens & Hipsher (both did some heavy lifting in their time here) .. it was the knee jerk 5 year extensions offered at the urging of Terry Pluto.

Still to this day, I can't believe how many people still remember the article in support of him that appeared right next to the standings showing our dismal status in the All-MAC sports rankings.
