Late Wednesday, the news came over that Syracuse Athletics would be hiring another former colleague of athletic director Mark Coyle. John Cunningham, last seen as senior associate athletics director for external affairs at Boise State, was hired as deputy athletics director for administration. He is Coyle's third hire since arriving on campus at Syracuse. Last week, SUA hired Kimberly Keenan-Kirkpatrick and Rhonda McFarland, the latter of whom also worked with Coyle at Boise.
Prior to his most recent role at Boise State, Cunningham worked with the school's compliance program ("surprise!") for three years. He's also held similar compliance-related positions at TCU and Maryland, respectively.
