WAKE UP BILL EVANS!

What’s the other board?

Also, I agree. The ship has sailed. The man is 72. It’s frankly selfish of him, but he won’t do it. The new AD MUST DO IT.

Yes he is 72 years old. And he told a friend of mine in Poky this past fall that he was getting ready to retire. So if he wasn't let go then I'm sure he would have just retired this year anyway.

According to his Wiki bio, Bill turned 70 in December. And while I can't say I've discussed this with Bill, I don't get the impression he was headed toward retirement. He still has a young family to support, and he was extremely active on the recruiting front -- signing two players in the fall, getting a commitment from a recruit this winter, and hosting a recruit the weekend before it was announced his contract would not be renewed.
