USC athletic director Mike Bohn continues to raid the University of Cincinnati for high-ranking positions inside the Trojan athletic dept. Bohn recently hired Nick Bowes to be USC’s Chief Operating Officer, a position previously held by Steve Lopes.
Why not "talk to someone who works for Mike Bohn"? That's very funny. No one presently working in USC's Athletic Department is going to say anything bad about Mike Bohn ...cuz... President Folt. It would be a waste of time for anybody to complain about Bohn's leadership..... cuz....Bohn's only doing what Folt wants him to do. Bohn looks like a separate entity in his cardinal blazer and gold pants but he's simply an extension of Folt.....cuz....he knows Folt expects it [make that, Folt demands it]. That's the way it is and that's the way it's gonna stay. And no one is gonna buck it. The present collective at USC isn't known for it's courage.
[Special Note: The big problem with hiring ciphers is they have severely limited contacts. Helton has to stick with Western Knott's Berry Farm or wherever it is he comes from ....and Bohn's universe begins and ends with Cincinnati].
I’d love it if USC were able to hire Luke Fickell. Many of us criticize and some mock Mike Bohn on twitter. Scott, what do people that work under Bohn at USC think of him? Do they like and respect him? That people from UofCInn have followed him to USC says something. Given the negative media coverage of the current affairs in Los Angeles, I’m skeptical that Fickell would want to move his family there.
I could be very wrong about this.....time will tell. But so far I think that Bohn was a good choice. I think he really wants to make a change. I think that Folt is giving him a lot of leeway. I think that Folt would probably like to see us bring back the glory days in football. She obviously doesn't know how to do it so she hired someone who does. It's the Board of Bustees who want to keep this program a mediocre program and overcoming their objections might not happen overnight. But I really don't think she's against what Bohn is trying to do. If nothing else, the way she just told Lynn Swann to "hit the road jack and don't you come back" tells me she wants to make a change. I would say that if Helton doesn't win big in the future, he'll be gone. If he continues to produce mediocre teams and no change is made, then maybe I'm wrong.
