AD Search

[Lobot]

Justin WIlliams with the big scoop: We've hired a search firm to handle our AD search. The firm is College Sports Associates and they have previously helped us hire Luke Fickell and also placed Whit Babcock at VT and Desiree Reed-Francois at UNLV from our department. Sounds like they are slightly familiar with us. Here's the job posting.

John Cunningham, deputy AD at Minnesota, expected to be the next UC AD -- The Athletic

You can squash the rumors about Bohn coming back. He just finally hired Brandon Sosna away from us

[Lobot]

And it won’t be Gillin per Bruce Feldman. He was not hired and will stay at App St.

Per the Athletic, the new AD will be announced by December 18.

Pat Forde is reporting that Doug Gillin is a serious candidate for AD. He's currently a sitting AD at Appalachian St. He was responsible for App State's move to FBS where they have flourished under multiple coaches.

Here's an article on Gillin from the local news:

Fairly sure based on tweets from Brian Fox at Bearcat Sports Radio that Zac Selmon from Oklahoma has also interviewed for the position at some point. And yes, He's related to Lee Roy Selmon.
