Washington State’s new Athletic Director Pat Chun has already gotten to work this week, but he hasn’t been on the Palouse. Instead, he’s been familiarizing himself with the west side of the state, meeting with the Cougar faithful and talking to the media.
In an interview with Stefanie Loh of the Seattle Times, Chun offered some insight into what his tenure as the AD will look like. Chun told Loh that University President Kirk Schulz has made it clear he wants the athletic director to “maintain a presence” in Seattle.
