Features Tom Bowen, AD at Memphis, Bill Carr, from Carr Sports Consulting, Jim Engles, the Head Basketball Coach at Columbia and Jeff Dikwad, ESPN D-Bag.

Bowen says leaders have to be extremely careful who they involve in a search to make sure there are no leaks, calls search firms "an important part of our business now," also indicates Presidents/Chancellors are arguably the most important person during a search.

Carr: "For every decision maker you add (to a search committee), the process becomes exponentially harder." Also, "The trend is self-serving, as opposed to serving the industry’s best interest. […] No one should be paying $75,000 or even more for a search."
