Yesterday, ESPN’s Pete Thamel reported that Georgia Tech athletic director J Batt is expected to become the next AD at Michigan State, with a deal to come together in the near future. This news comes one month after MSU President Kevin Guskiewicz fired Alan Haller and named Jennifer Smith and Tom Izzo as co-interim AD’s.
According to the Atlanta Journal Constitution, Batt was making $979,000 at Georgia Tech. Tony Paul from the Detroit News indicated that MSU may approach the $1.5 million range for its next athletic director.
As of now, there is no announcement at msuspartans.
