On Wednesday, news hit the wire that former UW and current Texas A&M president Michael Young had hired Scott Woodward away from Washington to become the new Athletic Director for the Aggies. This news comes on the heels of news that former Texas A&M AD Eric Hyman had resigned from that same point on Tuesday.
Nobody knows for sure how long a deal had been in place, but the briskness of the move makes the two-day courtship that Woodward had with Chris Petersen when he hired him look like a trip to Mars complete with robotic nannies and cryo-bed linens.
