“Papa” John Schnatter, who made headlines earlier this month for his criticism of Louisville athletic director Tom Jurich, has resigned from his position on the U of L athletic association board.

WDRB has confirmed that Schnatter has been replaced on the board by Jim Rogers.

Schnatter still holds his position on U of L’s Board of Trustees. He attended (although he was late) the board’s latest meeting on Wednesday, but raced by media members afterward, saying only that he was “happy”with U of L Interim President Greg Postel stating that he would be taking a “thorough look” into Cardinal athletics.
