Greg also did not have to deal with as many changes as Zac has had to deal with. Zac has done a hell of a lot to get us in the NIL game. Do we really think we would be better off if we had hired the guy at San Diego State who had ties to Mississippi State? Or Jared Benko? I think we absolutely made the correct hire.
We are. I mean we swung and missed at Michael Alford. That was our big swing. We had some communication with John Currie but it never really went anywhere.

Zac has done a lot of good with all the shit he had to deal with. He came into an antiquated AD that had people on staff that did not know how to properly do their jobs, which is why he had to bring in his people. This pissed some donors off that were used to getting what they wanted from the old people in those jobs. He then had to deal with an NIL collective that was just getting off the ground being run by 1 person, and god bless Charlie for stepping up. I mean we were 18-30 months behind almost every SEC program when it came to NIL. Charlie and Zac have gotten us to only about 3-6 months behind everyone now.
