My guess (and I know nothing) is that they positions are viewed as different skill sets. BU is looking for a top recruiter to replace OA. Alexander, though thought to be capable of recruiting, would be brought in to replace the skills that Gentry is best known for. JHWAO.The DIA doesn't need Gentry to leave. There's been an empty AC slot for a while now. If they're going to promote Alexander, why haven't they done it?
That's how I think of it, too. But from a hiring standpoint, it doesn't make any difference. There are two of the same position to be filled, regardless of sequence.My guess (and I know nothing) is that they positions are viewed as different skill sets.

So wait, we haven’t hired anyone?
You understand that there aren't actual "seats", right?Because then they don't have an official opening to chase after the Mennega's and Young's. Also it has been made pretty clear that Alexander will get Gentry's seat. That seat is not actually vacant yet.
I could see it being that Underwood doesn't want both Alexander and Gentry in AC roles. If that's the case, he would need to know if Gentry is going back to Gonzaga before making Alexander official.The DIA doesn't need Gentry to leave. There's been an empty AC slot for a while now.

I think you're right, but it raises questions. Could it be that the whole "Gentry is returning to Gonzaga" thing was internet speculation the whole time, along with the "Alexander will be promoted to Gentry's position" thing? Could it be that Gentry has kept Underwood hanging this whole time, not knowing whether he was returning to Gonzaga or not? (I doubt this one.) Could it be that Underwood has known for weeks that Gentry is leaving, but still wants the Alexander promotion to be his third AC hire, to establish some sort of hierarchy? Is there another reason he'd want to make his two outside hires before promoting from within?I could see it being that Underwood doesn't want both Alexander and Gentry in AC roles.

There are three actually. Anything outside of that has limitations on it. Gentry and Frazier take up two and the search for the third is in full force. Alexander is acting in the capacity of a full blown assistant currently but that would have to change if Young or someone else were brought on board. At least until Gentry is finally gone.You understand that there aren't actual "seats", right?

I haven't checked this thread since earlier this morning, have we hired anyone yet?
Just more speculation on why we haven't hired anyone yet and debates whether that is or isn't a bad thing.I haven't checked this thread since earlier this morning, have we hired anyone yet?

Cue the meltdown in 3....2....1....CY is not happening
Always love an unwarranted meltdown over a post made by a newer account with less than 10 posts.Cue the meltdown in 3....2....1....
CY is not happening
Curious to see if we hear anything about Gentry soon
CY is not happening
pain. any substance to the mennenga rumors?Can confirm. We had made a very good offer, Charlton ultimately decided it just wasn't the right move for him.
