OK first I don't want this to sound like a fan question and I hope I can keep it about coaching. Breaking News out of South Bend Indiana is that Kevin White is leaving for Duke. My question is what exactly does a AD do at a big university. I know when TY and Weis was hired with Urban in the mix the AD was only one voice out of a committee of about 5. So, what impact could a good or bad AD have at the collegiate level?
Sorry if this is to much of a fan question, but I am just curious about a AD at a big school and what impact do they have for the success of the sports programs.

They do a lot of fundrasing going to events speaking at them,anbd then PR with the boosters. Why would he leave ND for duke. ND is a much bigger name in athletics over all with football,baseball,and basketball,alogn with the success they have had with hockey this year.

I just seen it on the news and since I am 20 minute from Notre Dame anything with them is big news. They did not say why or when but it will be soon. I was shocked because earlier this week they made him and his wife some kind of special Alumni. ( they did not attend ND)

For all the pomp and rich history ND is one of the cheapest universities for paying coaches. |

Get out why your rep is intact.
The Clausen bandwagon just lost another passenger.
