The primary reason I've opposed firing Flood is that I didn't trust Barchi to bring in an Elite HC that can help us compete with the B1G boys. However, firing Julie changes the game. If we can bring in a name AD, this person may have the juice to bring in a name HC. Say we bring in David Stern, who doesn't think he couldn't get the big donors to line up to bring in a money HC? I really am starting to get my hopes up.....
