Who should fill the A.D. position at the College of Charleston? Gene Sapakoff thinks he has it answered.


The Post & Courier’s Gene Sapakoff has an interesting proposal for the Athletic Director’s vacancy at the College of Charleston.

Who should fill the spot left vacant by Jerry Baker? “No one”, Sapakoff suggests following the Modus-operandi of Vandy (which canceled their athletic department all together and have coaches deal directly with the administrative deans). Sapakoff’s suggests that without a football team, and with talented, “marquee”, head-coaches and the George Street “brain-trust” (Kresse, Ciuffo, Daniels and Evans) the College of Charleston doesn’t need an A.D.

Perhaps Sapakopff is over simplifying things here or perhaps not, I must admit, I am not totally sold on the idea (despite Sappy’s generous selections for the usage of the extra $150,000. As usual, I’d love to hear from you about this, so please leave your opinions in the comment section.
