Interesting recent article on him.

The challenges facing U.S. owners of Premier League clubs: ‘You cannot bastardise the beautiful game’

A leading executive at Bournemouth on the complex challenges that come with being a U.S. custodian of an English top-flight club

Some paralleled relevance



It’s a tough gig because they have the lowest income in the premier league.




This quote jumped out to me lol.

His comments about competing vs clubs with larger fan bases and budgets and trying to balance those challenges with maintaining local fans engaged, being able to have an affordable product for them so that they feel a real part of it all.....well, it screams UM athletics.
This was a good read.
It almost sounds like a resume for UM AD.
lol.

Apparently it was known in these golden cane streets that this job was going to be open 9 months ago or so. Wouldn’t be surprised if the leading contenders courted media members to self mythologize beforehand.

Didn’t know if you saw this article but it presents an interesting viewpoint that the AD isn’t even the AD anymore; it’s a working group of university leaders: https://www.sun-sentinel.com/2026/0...ld-and-the-new-athletic-directors-role-in-it/
 
He’s the perfect candidate and it should have already been announced. Yormark ain’t that guy

Hahahaha I’m just sayin… it’s not really all that close in terms of actual accomplishments on the business side of things in sports business world. Then add that he’s a Cane — it’s just a really good fit

If I'm not mistaken, Bournemouth has one more match left on their schedule, and that will decide which European cup they will be involved next season, so perhaps he is holding off on making an announcement.

They do, but it's very likely that they'll stay put due to goal differences.

so long as its presently undecided that would be consistent with a reason for him to not announce a departure. when will the decision as to Bournemouth's fate next year be made? This weekend? Ty
