Drake announced its new athletic director last month after a three month search. The Times-Delphic sat down with Brian Hardin to learn more about his goals.
Q: Why Drake of all schools?
A: Well, there are several things; it was university leadership.
When I was doing my due diligence and asking around, my first question was, “How’s President Martin?” I really believe that behind every great athletic department is a great president, and then you have to have a great board of trustees who can understand and appreciate the role that intercollegiate athletics plays on a college campus.
