Hurricanes reward their department leader
Some UM notes on a Thursday:
\u25aa UM quietly has given a multiyear contract extension to athletic director Blake James, who has guided the program to its best position financially in many years.
James is now signed through 2023, per a source.
James, who was named UM’s athletic director in February 2013, has done good work on a number of fronts, including hiring coach Mark Richt and raising money (with the help of UM’s senior associate athletic director/development Jesse Marks and his staff) to build an on-campus indoor football practice facility and upgrading other facilities, including the Hecht Center.
