Stanford is looking for a new Athletic Directory and apparently Mark Murphy wanted the position when available in 2006. Stanford has requested permission to interview Murphy for the position.

What impact (if any) do you foresee if Mark Murphy leaves the Packers?

I think it's semi-hilarious that a college AD position is more attractive than a pro President job.

Sort of like running for Senator after being President of the United States.

I would not want to have Mark leave. Mark is very capable, yet basically stays in the background and lets everybody else do they're job, much like Harlan did. He seems to be quite well respected throughout the league. The chemistry throughout our management and coaches is excellant, unless some one knows something they're not letting out. He also has aggressiveness and a good business sense to keep the Packers growing financially which will help us stay competetive. On top of it all he was a very good player, so he has an insight that not many top execs have.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

Ok, I'll answer the OP. [grin1]

My feeling on Murphy departing is a gigantic yawn. Finding another person whose primary roles are PR and interacting with Goodell's office and other lawyers for a seven figure salary -- this is not going to be particularly hard to do.

Murphy IMO is a corporate executive. A good one, to be sure, but good corporate executives with legal savvy are a lot more plentiful that the dipshit execs who make the news would suggest.

Not calling for his replacement -- but if he moves on, it's not going to be a big thing.

Unless you lack confidence in the Executive Committee's ability to avoid the dipshit candidates.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

I'm with Wade. The guys who do the real work are the guys like 🇹🇹 (and his staff) and 🇲🇲. Murphy leaving is not going to hurt us. 🇹🇹 or 🇲🇲 leaving will hurt us.

I am hurt that Kevin moved my post. Tyranny at the highest levels.

After all I did post my comment to this thread.

I don't see him moving on for an AD position at any university.

And country to some poster's opinions it take a lot of moxy to remain in the background and let others do their jobs. Not everyone can do that. I also wonder if The Committee would find another so able as Mark but then my opinion of committees is pretty low.

I'd be more than willing to do Mark Murphy's job. If anyone high up in the Packers' org reads this, the Zombieslayer is quite good at sitting back and letting others do their jobs.

... or some college president, whatever.

The real discussion might be, "Does this guy have the best job on EARTH, or what?"

Fellow Packers fans, let's all take a deep breath. A source within the Packers organization has refuted any impending move by Murphy. Director of Public Relations Aaron Popkey emailed with Jason Wilde today, who reported Popkey's response earlier today:

Mark’s at an NFL meeting and not available today. With regard to the speculation, it’s simply just that. There’s no basis to it.

dfosterf (11-May) : Fortunately it doesn't sound like a big deal

Zero2Cool (10-May) : Elgton Jenkins Involved In Strip Club Dispute ... Cops Called To Mitigate

Zero2Cool (10-May) : Derek Carr retires. Shoulder must be bad.

Zero2Cool (10-May) : Packers Pro Shop is not currently printing Golden #22 jerseys “until his number is confirmed after Training Camp.”

dfosterf (8-May) : I never thought I'd live long enough to call a pope a FIB, but here we are

Martha Careful (8-May) : Chicago produces a pope before it produces a 4000 yard passing quarterback

wpr (8-May) : HAHAHA Mucky Comment of the day.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : According to reports, Mel Kiper is furious that Sanders wasn't selected as the new Pope

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Time taken to get picked:

Zero2Cool (8-May) : New Pope: 2 days | Shedeur Sanders: 3 days

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Collin Whitchurch @cowhitchurch · 1h Chicago got a pope before it got a QB to throw for 4,000 yards in a season.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : New Pope from Chicago; in other words, the city produced a Pope before a 4000 yard passer

Martha Careful (5-May) : Yes, in the military S2’s work on IPB, PERCEC, PHYSEC and IO

dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Packers did not activate the fifth-year options for linebacker Quay Walker, with the goal of signing him to a contract extension.

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Matthew Golden spoke with Randall Cobb before draft. Looked like chance encounter.

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.

beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans

dfosterf (30-Apr) : Luke Elzinga Punter Oklahoma stil unsigned. Green Bay has been mentioned as good fit

beast (30-Apr) : The Packers re-signed three exclusive rights free agents WR Melton, P Whelan and RB Wilson.
