It’s pretty amazing how much turnover USC is willing to create/endure as long as it does involve the head football coaching position.
USC is advertising for an “Executive Senior Associate Athletic Director/Chief Operating Officer.”
It’s a convoluted title and the job description is only 144 words.
Excerpt: “Serves as the primary manager of department contracts, including game contracts and existing vendor relationships and agreements, in addition to assisting with the negotiation and administration of employment contracts. Provides day-to-day leadership for the operations and game management staff and manages all athletics department facilities and operations, including the Galen Center .”
Jobs like this are needed so athletic director Mike Bohn can focus on giving post-game lectures to the basketball team.
Meanwhile, USC is also advertising for a director of football equipment operations. Yet another job for the football program, which seems to hire someone new each week.
Except to replace Clay Helton, of course
Mike Bohn’s only talent is building an ineffective, unwieldy athletic department bureaucracy. Bohner’s $160 million in budget deficits at Cincinnati will look like chicken feed by the time he’s done at USC. For now, he and Carol Folt can and will blame the coronavirus. These are not leaders. There’s one simple, meaningful change that Bohn and Folt could make that would have a bigger impact than anything else, but they’ve chosen to punt.
Scott, a constant revolving door is a classic sign of piss poor management. No one wanted to come work for Folt, so she ended up with a toady. Bohn didn't do a good job at Colorado, and it's the same here. I just hope the push back to all of this merde (in and outside of the athletic departlment) will start in the fall when the campus opens up. Troy is a s*** show right now.
