KALAMAZOO, MI -- National signing day is less than 30 days away but that won't force Western Michigan athletic director Kathy Beauregard's hand when choosing a new head football coach.
Beauregard said at a press conference Friday in the wake of P.J. Fleck's departure that she understood the pressures of the pending recruiting timeline.
"An athletic director always has a list," Beauregard said. "It's a list that some days you hope you can go to and some days you wish you weren't necessarily going to. Timeline-wise it's critical because we're talking about a signing day less than 30 days away but I'm also not going to risk a hire based on that if it's not the right Bronco to come in here.
