Although, to his credit, most of the nice facilities have been Fowlers doing. Not just Carter Finley, but also Doak field and the current construction on the WB building.
Still, nice facilities with losing teams is like a mansion with a dysfunctional family living there. 11/20/2006 11:24:52 AM |

I dont see a need for this to be locked. Fowler is ultimately responsible for the successes or failures of his hires. He severely botched the basketball coach search (this does not mean we dont have a good coach, but we were used by more than one other coach to get a salary raise) and is responsible for the hiring of Chuck. 11/20/2006 11:29:13 AM |

this is going in my thread:
Quote : | ""Well, I'll throw some wood on the rumor fire.
According to a local sportswriter (and subsequently confirmed by a PackPride contributor that I trust), Oblinger has been in contact with several other universities asking them about their athletic directors and how they manage their athletics programs. Oblinger is said to be "investigating the possibility" of Fowler's retirement. It seems there is a lot of pressure on Fowler to step down. There's a possibility something may be mentioned at today's press conference, or at least someone may ask about it.
That's not to say that he is retiring, but the rumor is definitely making the rounds of the local newsrooms and seems to have some legs."" |

All we are doing is ruining our chances at a good hire and we will go thru another embarrassing search where the job is offered to every current coach with a pulse then it will go to an alum with zero head coach experience (Shane Montgomery)...
Does this sound familiar? 11/20/2006 1:08:54 PM |

Why not give Fowler's job to Chuck? Chuck is well liked and would be perfect for the job. If he could make the carter what it is today why not see what he could do as AD. 11/29/2006 12:02:52 PM |

per SFN: http://www.statefansnation.com/index.php/archives/2006/12/01/fowler-hits-new-low-a-call-to-the-board-of-trustees/
Quote : | " We’ve all seen (as VaWolf82 summarized) numerous examples of Lee Fowler making thoughtless and insulting statements about the people who, in the aggregate, pay his salary.
Fans unhappy with the 8-38 Periclean Age of Herb Sendek, for instance, were a “lunatic fringe” consisting of “50 people on the Internet.” Just yesterday, when asked to name the “greatest challenge facing NC State athletics,” Fowler did not (as one would hope) respond with “my own general ineptitude.” No, according to “Coach,” the biggest challenge to NC State athletics (other than getting a new football coach) is fan message boards on the Internet. Hapless football teams, winless volleyball teams, and bottom-seeded soccer programs are, one must assume, comparative small potatoes.
Fowler’s enthusiastic bashing of NC State fans has, sadly, had an effect. When an athletic director makes regular attacks on his own fans – and no athletic director in the country has done so with the consistency and vitriol of Lee Fowler – it inevitably gets picked up in the media. Combine Fowler’s gas attacks with the generalized media love for Herb Sendek, and you have an ever-growing myth that NC State partisans are a uniquely terrible bunch, a collection of red-clad Peck’s Bad Boys who drove the noble Herb to the Valley of the Sun. And much of this bad rep, again, is due to Fowler, the sports administration equivalent of the Dixie Chicks (shut up and work, Mr. Fowler), attacking the fans with monotonous regularity.
Still, there was a line that even Fowler didn’t cross, and it was accusing fans of criminal and threatening behavior. No more. Fowler nimbly leaped that Rubicon in an interview with the Richmond Times-Dispatch, in which he asserted that NC State fans “drove [Sendek] away for the security of his family.”
What the hell?
Is there credible evidence – any at all – that Herb Sendek’s family was truly threatened by the NC State fan base or members thereof? For that matter, is there any credible evidence that Sendek himself faced threats other than continued domination by Roy Williams and Coach K?
Fowler’s comment is an irresponsible, inappropriate, and absurd allegation by someone who, stripped of tinsel, is a contract employee of NC State. Enough, I suggest, is enough. Given that Fowler appears incapable of controlling his own statements, it is high time – past time – for the Board of Trustees to step in and muzzle him.
Fowler’s comments are sufficient reason to dismiss him from employment right now. Failing that, Fowler should be told in no uncertain terms that his continued employment is premised on a complete and permanent cessation of his attacks on the alumni and fan supporters of this university and a similar end to his media pining over the departure of Herb Sendek. Failure on Fowler’s part to comply would lead to his immediate termination for cause.
This university, and its supporters, deserve better than Lee Fowler and his runaway mouth. The Board of Trustees must act.

I hate Fowler and he's certainly botched almost everything he's done, but you have to admit he's done quite well on the two recent big items, hiring two capable coaches.
I have every confidence in Coach Lowe, and Tom O'Briend sure looks like a smart hire to me. 12/7/2006 11:33:29 AM |

Purcell would be an excellent AD in my.... and most knowledgeable fans opinions.
It's also pretty common knowledge that he'll take over once Uncle Jed gets the boot or leaves for another program like he tries to do every year or so 12/8/2006 5:18:43 PM |
