Re: Interview With President Assanis

He didn’t listen to you either BG.

And Shell and potentially DoD are investing in a Ponzi scheme of a company? You literally cannot make up this level of contrarian idiocy.

I wonder who these “UD higher ups” are? :-)

Re: Interview With President Assanis

Fisker was a colossal bust; Bloom has not been. Their complete story has yet to be written, folks. Any objective observer has to admit that the Bloom deal has pretty much been a mixed bag for Delaware. While the company hasn't once met its annual hiring goals or compensation benchmarks, it's also n...

Re: Interview With President Assanis

This is Bloom Energy today. I guess some will add Shell to the growing list of fools? https://www.fool.com/investing/2024/04/08/why-bloom-energy-rallied-in-march/ Is anyone else going to post something recent about them? I know gohens is a site about UD athletics, but does anyone have any idea how n...

Re: Interview With President Assanis

Hey Cluck, You're so far ahead can we just apply the mercy rule and end this. Thanks in advance. Not so fast. UD surely effed up athletics for literally ever. But by most other metrics, e.g. enrollment, endowment, grants, the STAR center you gotta admit they are doing pretty good, right? I hope the...

Re: Interview With President Assanis

https://bluehens.com/news/2023/11/3/delaware-athletics-delaware-announces-business-partnership-with-bloom-energy A little more recent about Bloom. Maybe if they asked you, UD would have cut ties by now? I guess the AD is a fool too? The technology/science center/STAR campus is one of the greatest su...

Re: Interview With President Assanis

So now the state legislators are fools too? Maybe run to be one and take a shot at taking down our local ones including the “bike mafia” guy. The two kids that tried to unseat them the last election were jokes. It should easy to beat them in a primary. Anyway, I wonder how UD survived, thrived and c...

Re: Interview With President Assanis

The “enrollment cliff” is real and it’s a concern for a huge segment of the higher education community as a whole. Reuters and the WSJ have both covered the issue. UD is dependent on New Jersey, the Mid-Atlantic and to a lesser extent the Northeast. A “enrollment cliff” combined with the migration ...

Re: Interview With President Assanis

And again Cluck, after throwing up on the keyboard yet again, you provided ZERO facts. But the laptop and Russian reference were a chuckle. And a question for you. If you dislike so much about UD, why do you continue to support them? Anyway, hope UD’s venture into bigger time football works out. Oh...

Re: Interview With President Assanis

>>“The catch is that I don't view the obvious off-field differences as any real practical, long-term drawback to CUSA move. Some could, I am guessing -- that's why it's part of the story. It's part of prosecuting the president's extolling of CUSA virtues objectively. It remains totally strategically...

Re: Interview With President Assanis

Very good Cluck. Imagine the horrors of meeting someone who is not a drone for the herd. Oh, the horrors! Demographic cliff? The link in the article says there was a noticeable drop in birth rates in 2008 to 2011 due to the “Great Recession”. Not true. The birth rates in those years are right in li...

Re: Field Hockey, Lacrosse and Men's Soccer Conference?

With five other teams in the Summit, that should mean two or three away conference matchups, plus a possible conference tournament. There will be regional OOC games that will require much less of a trip. Of greater interest, to me at least, are the landing spots for MLAX and FH. Pretty much and wit...

Re: Field Hockey, Lacrosse and Men's Soccer Conference?

Glad UD and other academic institutions are finally getting on board with the compelling arguments from the minority on at least one important topic, climate. The increased travel due to conference realignment will be a drop in the bucket, or really a molecule in the air, but it is at least a start...

Re: News Journal Article Today 03/20/24

That the defense is small, not very physical nor aggressive is not really debatable. A 3-3-5 can work but it needs the right players and play calls just like any defense. And the second 3 just got smaller as Davis was moved from the secondary at 200. As the Hens move to FBS/CUSA, they need a talent ...
