This Q&A has been on the Trove for about a week. As I am doing here I did there asking for feedback. Feedback that Mike and the school couldn't see. Here they can. I ask you to be respectful in your comments. You are representing not only this board but the SHU community.
You might not agree with everything you are about to read and that's fine. It's the reason why this Q&A is so important. Mike is coming here with an open mind.
Before I post the first of many parts which will appear here daily I wanted to share my final thoughts from the Trove after reading the feedback there.........
I think some readers here are looking at this Q&A with the wrong perspective. This Q&A serves as an introduction to Mike McBride and in no way is a comprehensive interpretation of his future plans.
Mike has only been living in NJ for a couple of weeks and been on the job for about a month. He needs to learn the lay of the land, make connections with people and businesses. That doesn't happen overnight.
It's been a whirlwind for McBride and to think in that short of a time you are going to get some of the answers you want with specifics is not going to happen. And if it did it would have been foolish of McBride to do so.
The keys to someone in his position are hard work, background knowledge, experience and maybe most importantly the ability to listen and then amend your POV if it's in the best interest of Seton Hall.
Mike promised to come back here for another interview down the road so for me I love the fact we have someone at SHU so important in what he does but also so willing to not only reach out to the fanbase but to listen to their concerns as well.
