Nine years after returning to his alma mater and transforming its athletic department on and off the field, Terry Mohajir is leaving Arkansas State University.
Mohajir was named athletic director of the University of Central Florida on Tuesday, one day after multiple national outlets reported his move to the Group of Five powerhouse. He replaces Danny White, who left UCF last month for the same role with the University of Tennessee.
Mohajir received a five-year contract that will pay him a salary of $795,000 in the first year, then is schedule to rise to $950,000 by the fifth year, according to a memorandum of agreement.
