Any insight as to whether we’ll see that Interim title removed or not? From what I have been told by friends still working at App, she is nearly unanimously loved by staff and faculty there, as she has risen to the occasion very quickly and brings a warmth to the office that was missing in Everts.

I’m really, really hoping that this is a non political appointee, one that gets App, meaning it’ll be Heather.

Insight ? Yes. Also sworn to secrecy. Based on multiple conversations I’m optimistic about the future of our University.

Based on what I am hearing I agree. Big for football and makes me optimistic about the rumors I have heard regarding our future in realignment. I actually think we are going to have at least 2 options and maybe 3 or 4. Just keeping fingers crossed that things keep falling into place. Now we just have to win on the football field. We really need a good performance in all facets against Boise State and Oregon State this year to start the year off right.

Charlotte too. Losing to them would set our program back more than any other loss this season.

Need to win that for sure but that is a given. We need to win all 3 and stand out big time against all 3. We need to sellout all those venues. I hope we bring a big contingent to Boise State. We need to impress a lot of people and we can!

I'll be there. But I probably won't impress anyone.

Can someone provide a play-by-play of the announcement? I can't get the live feed.

So who got it? The PBS link says it's a closed session so it isn't being live streamed.

Competitive process. Forty seven applicants. Three finalists. She earned it , in so many ways. Proud of her and of course happy for us.

UNC pres Hans said "go neers" at the end of his speech and it felt so awkward.

It was only about a 10 minute announcement session. They just came back live, wham bam thsnk you mam and then adjourned until April. Chancellor Norris wasn't present for the meeting as I'm sure she is gearing up for her meet and greet.

Beyond excited! I thought David would have been solid but Heather earned it and is the best candidate. Football is in good hands now just like when we had Peacock.

Personally psyched about Interim Chancellor Norris. I actually had a great interaction with her while I was a student in COB. Only asking this because I'm ignorant. Why is she good news for the football program specifically?
