Coach strikes out with bogus resume

[ConservativeStatement]

When Husain Mahmoud was hired as head coach of Chicago State University's baseball team last year, his resume looked impressive: A 30th-round draft pick for the Cincinnati Reds. A college football and baseball star who held a collegiate punting record. A professional football player with the Chicago Fire of the now-defunct World Football League who had also been a league-leading quarterback in the Continental Football League.

But a Sun-Times examination found Mahmoud was never drafted by the Reds and didn't play for either football league. Central State University in Ohio, from which Mahmoud graduated, could not confirm his claimed record.

Darn "typos" will get you every time.

[TheWasteLand]

But was he a "community organizer"?

Lots of people seem to use that to pad their resume.

[Sgt_Schultze]

Folks recently tend to overlook a slim resume if the dude is named hussein (however it’s spelled).

[pissant]

Husain Mahmoud is still more qualified that Hussein Obama to be president

Call Dan Ra^ther! Another fake, but accurate, document.

When I was on the search committee for a new Dean of the College of Business at Creighton University, we had an applicant with a Ph.D. from Harvard and an MBA and undergrad degree from the University of Chicago. He had been an assistant dean for something like 6 years and had all kinds of impressive publications and research grants. We invited him for an interview, which did not go well. Subsequent checking proved that his entire resume was bogus. With the possible exception of his birthday, everything else was completely fabricated.

Probably just typos...

[Reeses]

everything else was completely fabricated.

They should prosecute this and lying about citizenship to get a job the same as bank fraud since money is involved. This has gotten out of control. A few public prosecutions would help. Resumes from Indian born IT workers are really bad. They succeed too often at displacing legal honest tax paying Americans from getting a job.

They should have been suspicious when they read the part about a Moo playing with a pigskin.

This is not a problem in Chicago. Reverend Wright is a fake minister. Father Pfleger is a fake priest.

[Doctor Don]

But Husain intended to do those things.....he really tried! A liberal DemonRAT would hire him anyway because he must have been a victim sometime in his life.

Surly there is nothing wrong with the water in Chicago. I have met some very fine, and honest, folk from that fair city. What a beautiful skyline at night, and I do not like big city life.

I am attending the Air and Water show next month. I went last year and had a blast even though Saturday’s event was held with gloomy weather and Sunday’s was rained out.

Be sure to snag a prime rib sandwich at Lawry's restaurant located at 100 E. Ontario. Go for a entire meal if you have time to eat. That's Lawry's of seasoned salt fame.
I am sure you will have a good time if it doesn't snow.

I always thought you check the credentials before you do the hire.

We did. That's how he was discovered, especially in light of the bad on-campus visit. He was never hired.

[ConservativeStatement]

Oh, that area is filled with terrific restaurants. I like Big Bowl. I may hit Weber’s, too. Lawry’s is on the docket. :-)
