Michigan has finally found a new AD. Warde Manuel, current AD of UConn and past AD of University of Buffalo, will be introduced today as the new AD of Michigan.
Manuel is an alum of Michigan, having played football in the 90's for Schembechler. He also has been an assistant and associate AD at Michigan prior to leaving for Buffalo.
He is getting a huge raise in his new positions, from $450,000 at UConn, to $700,000 at Michigan.
Jim Hackett will be returning to Grand Rapids, leaving an much improved situation in the athletic department than when he stepped into the role. The wolverine fans would like to erect a statue in his honor, lol.
