Amanda Leland - Ted's daughter. I had no idea this position was in the works - can anyone elaborate?

Given Reveno is the men's basketball GM it will be interesting to see what get's delegated to her....
And Reveno as GM is interesting since he presumably still reports to Smith since he's associate head coach compared to Football GM Andrew Luck where the football coach reports to him.....
I also wonder if any other sports will get general managers....

Yes, it is a bit fuzzy but her experience seems to at least fit her role to a decent extent. I agree also that putting people in the seats for both Basketball and Football should be job number one and cutting prices and giving the tickets away is necessary. Once we prove we can win and tickets become worth something, start raising the costs once again.
Muir was going to step down at the end of the academic year, so I presume he is gone. If true who is running things Andrew and the President? I also assume Women's Basketball will get GM.
