DAVE MATLIN select as AD
Re: Official AD Search Thread: Finalist are MATLIN & AMEMIYA
I am the one who knocks.
Re: Official AD Search Thread: Finalist are MATLIN & AMEMIYA
McNamara was almost a finalist. It's funny how McNamara didn't get a single vote in this poll. Even Abercrombie got one. Moniz-Kahoohanohano got two!

Re: Official AD Search Thread: Finalist are MATLIN & AMEMIYA
1 days since they narrowed the field down to two. Still no decision?
Re: Official AD Search Thread: Finalist are MATLIN & AMEMIYA
Matlin is the new AD. Announcement to be made at noon today.
Not doubting, not hating, not loving, just hoping because I am a fan.

Re: DAVE MATLIN select as AD
At a time when being Hawaii centric is a big plus for the AD position, Amemiya and Matlin are both major step ups from Jay. Most know about Amemiya's accomplishments, business acumen and connections. Much less is known about Matlin.
From a Hawaii centric perspective, he is a very good choice. He's worked in the UH athletic department early in his career and elevated himself into a prominent role in the State's athletic scene being the executive director of the Hawaii Bowl and Diamond Head Classic. As an example of his Hawaii connections check out who is on the Hawaii Bowl executive committee. Through the Hawaii Bowl and Diamond Head Classic, Matlin also a lot of mainland connections with many major conference commissioners, ADs and coaches as well as ESPN.

Re: Official AD Search Thread: MATLIN
I was trying to listen to him on ESPN 1420 but the sound was so bad it was hard to hear. I think Matlin said that it won't be official until the 27th and that he had some loose ends to tie up with his old job.poidog wrote:Ben Jay - start packing and be out by 5pm please, thanks, bye....

Can watch the conference here http://khon2.com/2015/03/25/david-matli ... -director/
Also VA said that Matlin will start working immediately, but won't start getting paid till the 27th of April. He will be relied upon deciding who should be the new BB Coach.

If it wasn't for the Wonder Blunder probably would have still had him.

Re: DAVE MATLIN select as AD
pretty much. the only reason he's gone is because he was in charge when a huge amount of money was given away. kinda hard to overlook that one, though.shoichikun808 wrote:If it wasn't for the Wonder Blunder probably would have still had him.
