      With his track record and resume, methinks he is the obvious choice.

      Best of luck to Kristin Dunbar. Over 10 years as Athletic Director for the Good Ship Laker, she left her mark with a clean reputation, was a class act all the way, and simply put, is a good person.

        Methinks someone needs to provide a link, since I can't find any sort of release saying she was let go.

        That being said, this may have been the only sincere post I've seen you make. Kudos

It looks like we have a gap from the end of April 2015 NLI press release to the late November 2016 one. It seems likely there were some NLIs during that gap.

            One other huge disappointment I have with the SID office over the past couple of years is the failure to produce the annual Hockey Media Guide (and Basketball Media Guides for that matter).
            It's quite likely that it was not the SID's choice, rather a budgetary move. Fewer and fewer schools are putting out hard copies of media guides. But all the info is available online. I don't believe I saw any hard copies anywhere this year.

              I think Whitten has a plan what he wanted to do as head coach at Lake State and would not leave to be an assistant somewhere else. If offered head coaching job with MI State ....yea

                Heard from Damon personally yesterday. He's not interested in MSU right now in any capacity, focused on LSSU.

                  Up until we changed SIDs a couple of seasons ago, the annual hockey and basketball media guides were available online. I don't remember for sure when the last hard copy media guides were produced but it wasn't more than a few years ago. The online media guides were still available during the 2014-15 season. A lot more information was included in the media guides than is generally available online independent of the media guides. To me, we're losing part of our sports history for both hockey and basketball. I'm not sure if we were doing media guides for other sports as well, but I know we were doing them for hockey and b-ball up until the last 2 seasons. It's not just the loss of hard copy media guides, it's also the loss of online media guides. The online media guides were available as pdf files.

                      I want to believe, but who would come out and say they were interested if they already had a gig? I know I wouldn't come out and say that I was applying or interviewing for other jobs to anyone I work with, if I were to do that.

                      That being said, I'm hopeful that he doesn't leave for MSU, in whatever capacity.

                          Tell you what, the next time you get a text from him, you can refute it. And that's the last of my sharing of any information, blame LakerBaker for that.
