The following statement appears in the invitation to Monday night's Program Enhancement Event, which is designed to produce revenue to support the recruiting efforts for the men's and women's basketball programs. It went out over the names of six individuals who are either current and former Board of Trustees members and other supporters of the basketball program.
"Not only do we want to recruit students who help us win MAAC championships - we want our men's and women's basketball coaches to have the resources to recruit students who help enhance SIENA COLLEGE'S STATUS AS AN ELITE MID-MAJOR PROGRAM." (emphasis added)
It is a disgrace that the powers that be either did not take the time to edit the copy from a similar invitation during Fran's tenure, when the quoted statement was true as to the men's program, or else believe that the quoted statement is still true.

The Invitation is indicative of the thought process of the decision makers..

I recall the event during Fran's tenure was billed more as a "salary enhancement fund raiser" vice what now appears to be a "help us get this Program back to where we want it to be" - read that "please come feed the bailout fund piggybank"

Their most successful years of this event raised close to $30,000. No way do they approach that number, unless as Gorvy suggested they turn it into a buyout enhancement event. |

And will be happy to attend again next year...when we have a new coach, new energy. |

when people like Knicksaint are at the end of their rope... the writing SHOULD BE on the wall. Siena understands one thing... money. Close up your checkbooks and it sends the biggest message. I understand many dont want to give up tickets or have been boosters of some fashion for a long time. The problem is that the powers that be, like little children, have learned that there is little to no accountability for poor actions/management. The money continues to flow in regardless of the outcome. We have seen some HORRENDOUS coaching selections and deplorable results. Like little kids, if youre never held accountable for anything... you continue to do whatever the hell you want regardless of the results.

I guess at some point all traditions must end.. |

"It is important because you can't be down for very long, or else you start to become irrelevant, and we certainly don't want that,'' D'Argenio said.
D'Arg quote when Mitch got fired. You built that, John.
