He was AD at North Texas from 1990-92. He took over as AD from Corky Nelson. I think he may have been our first AD without also being Head Coach of football too?
Forgot he was a backup to Joe Namath at Bama, then won a National Championship of his own as QB.
Nice photos of his career here...

You can kind of read in between the lines and see teams like CLT and UAB that only lost a couple of players while having really strong years. Memphis is losing bench players and is picking up some really nice commits, and USF lost a good amount but already picked up a 4 star from Alabama. CLT got Rosado from FAU. UAB picked up a 4 star from Iona.
