Last week, Florida State Seminoles athletic director David Coburn announced that he’d be retiring from his position, effective at the end of the spring 2022 semester or as soon as the university found his replacement.
As a variety of names bubbled up in related to the search, one started to appear more often than others — current Louisville Cardinals athletic director Vince Tyra. Multiple national names, including Andrea Adelson from ESPN, Pat Forde from Sports Illustrated and Pete Thamel from Yahoo! Sports.
From our Louisville sister site, Card Chronicle:
According to several reports, including those from Sports Illustrated’s Pat Forde and WDRB’s Eric Crawford, an untenable relationship between Tyra and U of L president Neeli Bendapudi as well as others in positions of power at the university have played a large part in Tyra’s decision.
