I am not sure that ab10 really knows the guy. I respect the guy as a monetary economist, but as human being he is appalling.
Leeper leaving Indiana University

He is way overrated. He looks like somebody who desperately try to overinflate his contribution to the profession but missing the substance.I am not sure that ab10 really knows the guy. I respect the guy as a monetary economist, but as human being he is appalling.

^ Hum....you "never" heard of him. But you made the following comment? It's clear that you know of Leeper.

Low rated monkey still a low rated monkey! Since he was trying so hard to become popular on EJRM I became curious and checked him out. Waste of time!

Troll, troll, troll.... Sad that others fell (and couldnt see that from the writing). So, please don't feed the troll.

who cares?!?
Juniors who might be contemplating moving to Indiana where Leeper is now or to Texas where he might be moving. Whatever you guys think about him, he seems to have done well professionally. He can lift up the research environment, which juniors would value highly...

Boy, if he is bad with assistant professors, what is he doing with Todd??? He became his sponsor and conditioned his offer from UTexas on getting Todd one too, and even tried to bargain for him to get a tenured offer. I wish I had a sponsor like him as an assistant professor!
Why do you guys believe rumors in a rumors' website??? No founded evidence. Just hearsay. This is not how you should form opinions about anyone. Also, you could even burn your bridges in getting to know or interacting with good researchers if you go by what you read here.

Next time when I move, I will for sure ask for a tenure offer for the young one who wrote papers for me.

It truly amazes me how much sheer crap is written up here. Until I read this stuff, I thought trolls were little plastic creatures with long stringy hair. Those are adorable and of high intellectual calibre compared to the participants in this thread. Author 2325 has it right: base your views on the kind of garbage being spewed up here at your own risk. If these comments reflect your academic integrity, economics is in serious trouble.
