I think he has accepted the job according to CBS. 20+ year athletic director at Iowa and Stanford Universities. Seems like a good fit.

Agreed. I was a little surprised though. Everything I had read was pointing towards Oliver Luck getting it. Still, he seems to be a solid choice. Now he can start to work on expanding teams. Lots of rumors that FSU and Clemson are coming.

Might be a conflict of interest with Luck because of his position with West Virginia, which is now a conference member.

Looks like it will indeed be Bowlsby:
