The Collegian has confirmed that Fresno State has placed two athletic officials on paid leave.
Paul Ladwig, senior associate athletics director for external communications, and John Kriebs, associate athletics director for internal communications, have both been on leave since Sept. 6.
Ladwig’s employment with the university will end on June 7, 2019 and Kriebs’ last day of employment is June 24, 2019. It’s unclear why the two officials were placed on paid leave.
