Here’s a link to the Kaimin article: http://www.montanakaimin.com/features/asset-or-liability-bobby-hauck-s-controversial-return-to-um/article_de551310-db75-11e7-b412-dbef348385d4.html
Here’s an interesting Missoulian article: http://missoulian.com/news/local/letter-from-some-university-of-montana-faculty-ask-for-reconsideration/article_1930c723-7c0d-5223-8907-a9a417e457c5.html
From the Missoulian article:
The letter is dated Dec. 1 and directed to incoming President Seth Bodnar and Athletic Director Kent Haslam. The faculty members ask UM to "ideally" reconsider the decision. But, "beyond that," they suggest Hauck be required to schedule forums with faculty and students to address their concerns.
Are they going to ask Hauck what he eats for dinner? Because the way they've gone after him, anything he eats could be detrimental to UM's image. :roll:
"Bobby Hauck ate a cheeseburger, fries, and a green salad at the Iron Horse! He's making UM look like we don't care about vegan animal rights!!" :shock:
Does anyone have a link to the letter? I'd like to review and rebut it.
This quote from the article about the letter is just a myth, and not accurate.
"The letter said Hauck's tenure contributed to the climate that resulted in federal investigations at UM for failure to properly handle sexual assaults and "horrible consequences ...
in terms of enrollment and reputation." Faculty pointed in part to his recruitment of players "implicated and convicted of sexual assault."
Wonder what their support is for the "contributed to the climate" statement? I can't imagine that they have facts to back up that statement. To my knowledge, there were zero sexual assault issues with players during Hauck's 7 years. Certainly none in the paper.
Sorry, only recruited one player (Donaldson) who was convicted about 2.5 years after Hauck left for UNLV.
As I have said, Pflu recruited JJ. Had known him and his dad for years. JJ committed after Pflu was the coach. And, JJ was not thrown out of school by UM, never lost his scholarship, and was acquitted (of what many people thought was a bogus charge). Again, Hauck had nothing to do with that. He had been at UNLV for 3 years by that time. I sat through much of the trial. The trial was effectively over after the accuser testified. No way he was not going to be acquitted.
If this letter shows the level of research, scholarship and honesty of these faculty members, they should all be fired immediately. They are perpetuating a fairy tale. Their level of scholarship and fact-gathering is pathetic.
