Former BG coach passes away

[mscarn]

Tom Lichtenberg passed away over the past weekend. He was brought in by Gary Blackney in 2000 (his final year) to install and coordinate a new offense. He fell ill and eventually ceded duties to one Dino Dawson. The results were disastrous and almost everyone got fired with Dawson winding up at Toledo the next year, forshadowing the path of Matt "Hair Gel" Campbell.

Coach Lichtenberg resurfaced a few years later as an assistant at Drake before calling it quits. Dawson is now a "Sales Talent" who hilariousely converted his years of college coaching experience into weird corporate-speak on LinkedIn:

Pretty much what he said:

Hitting on ladies is now called "networking"

My knowledge of business procedures and processes, I was able to re-negotiate previous vendor contracts in the areas of hotels, meals and travel.

I can see how "territory management" would be an asset in this arena.

Any time you come under budget is a good thing.
