You forgot to mention that he hired the volleyball (better), men's golf (too early), new baseball (better than pre-Hillier as well as Hillier), field hockey (better), rowing (1st coach), track (better), women's soccer (at least even), men's soccer (too early), wrestling (better), and, yes, men's lax (better) coaches during his tenure. Leaving out the fact that Gail Goestenkors was basically his hire as well as her successor, Coach P (too early). Were Franks and Roof bad hires. Absolutely. Did Hillier turn out to be a bad choice? Yes, but I will say this much, that man was given ZERO chance to succeed. Would he have if given a shot, I don't know but my gut says no. Again, beat the man down all you want, but the department is in MUCH better shape now than it was when he took over the reigns from Tom Butters.
