More serious turmoil at SIU

a couple lines caught my eye
"Since arriving in August, I (Chancellor Carlo Montemagno) have been closely looking at the very challenging and complex financial situation facing Saluki athletics"
....NINE MONTHS??? The guy's been in charge for almost a year and being paid $700K and he's still just sitting there looking into it??
Baloney- here's what the guy has been doing - scheming to create non-existent jobs to hire all his family members!!! - LINK

"Since arriving in August, I have been closely looking at the very challenging and complex financial situation facing Saluki athletics"
...when they hired this guy they implemented a $26 million BUDGET CUT - so what happened?? - LINK

"SIU also had the highest loss in the MVC" - amazing, just a world class bunch of incompetent idiots running the place- almost as dumb as what we saw here.

for decades SIU fought hard to erase their PARTY SCHOOL reputation...but this column suggests that has hurt their enrollment!!! LOL!!

wow- that is truly AMAZING... I can't imagine what it would be like to have a
terrible, inept, arrogant, vindictive, conceited, DECEITFUL, traitorous,
dishonest and self-serving President over the entire UNIVERSITY who
"denigrates" anyone who "for questioning the rationale, process
and timing" of his massively destructive actions and brings the entire system down
in CORRUPT financial ruin....
He calls the good people and fans of SIU "bitchers from Carbondale"!!

or...wait a minute, maybe I can imagine that....

SIU had Barry Hinson speak at their commencement..........
well, that was just too much for their immature message boarders and they have gone right back into full baby-tantrum, meltdown mode....attacking each other viciously

It is kind of embarrassing how low their own fans have stooped - including one guy who seems to be leading the charge of all the whiners on their message board(s), and he's not even a grad, a donor, or a season ticket holder supposedly.

I recall that almost happened here but thankfully those bad eggs were "moderated" and banned....Bradley suffered thru their self-inflicted bad times, the good fans stayed loyal, they engineered a remarkable rebuild and we are now on the cusp of challenging for the MVC title.
But.. to think what might have happened here had those who sought to destroy the program gotten their way and kept their corrupt losers in charge.

calls are mounting for SIU to send their president packing....
..hey, I know who they can hire if the fans wanna get rid of their basketball coach

"The state??™s public universities were hit with millions of dollars in mid-year budget cuts this year ..."
