Maryland focusing on Damon Evans, Patrick Kraft and John Currie for athletic director position

More than two months after Maryland cut ties with athletic director Kevin Anderson, the search for his successor appears to be focusing on three candidates.

According to sources familiar with the process, the search committee assigned by university president Wallace Loh will conduct on-campus interviews with each of them this week.

Along with acting athletic director Damon Evans, current Temple athletic director Patrick Kraft and former Tennessee athletic director John Currie were also expected to be interviewed.

The three candidates were recommended to the search committee by an outside search firm hired by Maryland to identify a potential successor to Anderson, who held the job for a little over seven years before leaving campus suddenly last fall and resigning April 13, just as his six-month sabbatical was to run out.
