Looks like a decent move.  Can he bring back with him all that WSWIM talent that Virginia has poached?


RE: New deputy AD/COO - 82lsju - 04-14-2026

from the AD, includes a second hire

Quote:Tyler Jones has been named Deputy Athletics Director, Chief Operating Officer, while Larissa Fontaine will serve as Deputy Athletics Director for Olympic Sports and Student-Athlete Success. Both positions will report directly to Donahoe.

This is promising. UVA at least figured out how to keep trying. I'll ask my son if he knows Mr. Jones and if so, his thoughts.

Report from The Grounds: Never met Jones when he did his project for the AD. Williams is well entrenched. He won't be getting her job any time soon. Jones did a great job with football. Brains behind infusing money and paying players over cycling through coaches. Led to their highest win total in program history. Opportunity to burnish resume to be an AD somewhere. Less humidity.
