Mark Harlan took a peek out the window of the private plane as he flew south and got a panoramic glimpse of Zion National Park as his flight descended. Minutes later, he stepped off onto the runway and went to work. Four days into his job as Utah’s new athletic director, Harlan flew to St. George for an alumni event held at Dixie State University.
That’s part of the gig, getting to meet and greet the vastness of your fan base, and as Harlan notes, it stretches far beyond the views provided at the University of Utah.
