Job Anyone??

There is a new job open in OM Athletics. I am wandering exactly who they are targeting for this position. It looks like they took a little bit off of everybody's job description from Jay Stern to Langston Rogers to Pete Boone and threw it all into one position. Like they do not have enough assistant A.D.'s already. Bobby Cook I think your years of experience at the Yerby center would qualify. Otherwise I do not think there are too many readers on this site that have the qualifications
