No mention of his tenure at Ohio. It is like we don't even exist!

He doesn't seem to stay in any job very long.
I'd be curious what he was paid @ Miami and what his new deal is at TT.
Ohio gave him his big break, he shouldn't forget about that.
I also thought that the mention in this article that he procurred the single largest gift for the athletic department,$5 million. I found this to be a surprise given it's Miami which is in a big conference. After all Ohio just received last December alone a $10 million gift.

Hocutt, 38, was at Miami for 2½ years, and has been considered one of the rising administrators in college athletics. He was selected last year as part of the "40 Under 40" top sports executives by SportsBusiness Journal.

I wish I could read the ESPN article from when Hocutt was hired to go to Miami. Sounds so familiar :)

It amazes me that he was able to find another job considering how lousy an AD he is (sarcasm).

Kansas approached him as well. At the least, he must interview really well. On a serious note, someone needs to pick up a phone and get a football home and home with Texas Tech.

This man is seriously misunderstood and quite frankly under-appreciated, LMAO!
