What fantastic leadership PSU has at the top.  Where was she?

I always said she was not cut out for AD at PSU. Her and Franklin are wrapped together like Christmas paper, just not working out. I'm in no position to judge others, just my opinion.  Time for a change. Just not PSU material.

Why would she be on a conference call with University Presidents? I don't believe any ADs from any University were on it, Barron was the representative from PSU.

What she does is probably way over my head but IMO Penn State sports have done great under her watch from what I’ve seen and if she’s wrapped in with James Franklin then please for goodness sake keep her as long as you can!

How has she done raising money? When it is all said and done, that is the primary role of the AD at a D1 institution. After that is hiring coaches.

I'm not sure about 2019, but I do know we set a fundraising record in 2017 and 2018 was a big year as well.

Of course it's all in how you measure it. I don't think they count one time huge donations like the $80 million for  Ice Hockey as part of normal fundraising efforts.

Roam, unlike a lot of AD’s I’ve watched on the sidelines she’s always happy and has a smile on her face and having fun why is it so many Penn State fans don’t like her I don’t get it? Not on here but on PennLive in the past I’ve read where people just don’t like her. Is it maybe because she came from California and they see her as an outsider?

There's always a group of people who hate everyone. Can't please them no matter what... even if they got their choic in, at some point they would call them a traitor for some decision they make.
