I am cautiously optimistic about the search right now.
While on 1 hand, the use of a search firm is not encouraging (read we have reached out to parties of our short list and received the heismann and we now need to use someone with a longer list of names on their cocktail napkin) – we can only hope that it means we’re getting all these inquiries from various agents and need to keep it hush hush.
The timing is such that one would think a little bit of pre-existing work has taken place and perhaps, didn’t yield fruit.
Still, you have to believe we are going to get one of these right and there are a lot of exciting candidates out there.
