I suspect that the $50-65K range is substantially above what the last few HP directors have been pulling down, but you are correct, the person selected will have a lot on their plate.
I hope the current acting HP director, Andrea Lagan, has thrown her "Lemon Squeezer" into the ring for consideration... "Sometimes we, as coaches, get into that dictator mode where you just tell and you don't listen and you don't try to understand them." Tom Izzo, Mich. St.

I hope the USFA identifies some new talent to fill this position. The status quo is a carry over for the Anderson/Massik era.

Thus, heretic is woefully unqualified.

Andrea has been intensely involved with the international competition programs for the past several years, especially in support of the national teams. I'd think that would make her at least a viable, if not top-level candidate for the slot.

Unfortunately, IMO, Andrea is probably the leading candidate. She can aggressively lobby the new ED, and has institutional knowledge of the organization and sport that he lacks.
Hopefully, the ED will vet her application with the national coaches, athletes and others in the know to get a balanced appraisal of her qualifications and issues. I also hope there are other viable applicants for the position.

As much as competition is always a good thing, your objections in the past have been grounded in a personal vendetta executed through random accusations and unsubstantiated slander.

Lieble, printed. Slander is spoken. HTH  Go to the well until the well is dry. When the well is dry find a new well.
