"In addition to our Co-AD paired leadership model, we are looking forward to partnering with Ron Rivera, the general manager of our football program. In this new model, Ron will directly oversee the football program, including personnel and the operating budget, while we will be responsible for the supervision of the other 29 sports and the department support units." This is the same Ron Rivera that coached in the NFL for 27 years, "including a combined 12 years as a head coach for the Carolina Panthers and the Washington Commanders. He led the Panthers to the Super Bowl in 2015 and was named NFL Coach of the Year twice with the team." Perhaps this makes sense after all.
