Tim Leiweke to stay on as MLSE CEO for now

Two months ago I asked "Why is Tim Leiweke still here?"pondering how MLSE could fail at finding a CEO after seven months, even after reportedly hiring an executive search firm. It has now been almost nine months since it was announced Leiweke would leave MLSE on June 30. In that time we have heard denials he was leaving, that he was begged to stay, and now, that he will stay; but who knows for how long.

Today, MLSE issued a press release stating they have still not found a new CEO, and that Tim Leiweke has agreed to stay on indefinitely.
