Ross Bjork (OSU AD)

So far Ross earns about the best grade he can for me. I know its early and the body of work will play out, but I think he was at the very least the perfect hire to replace Gene in the modern landscape of CFB. I also get the sense he is brutally honest and will not let loyalty override results at the end of the day. If he keeps it up, he is going to be here for a long time and I say that not only because of the Natty in football.

He is going to have quite the road ahead. Fundraising for an updated WHAC, while also promoting OSU FB for NIL purposes (balancing act). Figuring out how profit sharing will play out, while trying to keep non-revenue making athletics. Representing OSU interests in the new super conferences.

Should be interesting.

For sure, it's going to be tough. Gene left at the right time and the torch passed to the right guy built the best to do it though. Not an indictment on Gene, but it seemed to be perfect timing.

But it's a small body of work, so I'm not going to make any bold proclamations about the future. Just that it looks like a home run hire to start, hope he can keep it up.
