I'm pretty sure someone on the board is over-qualified for this opportunity:

Isn't this what marketing and development (each are separate entities in the Redbird athletic structure) are supposed to be doing already?? I find this really interesting yet confusing yet enlightening, I guess. If I'm Kyle this person becomes my right hand man/woman because at the end of the day fan development and revenue generation falls directly in Kyle's lap.

Which presents a good chicken or the egg question: What's your top priority as AD? Fan development/revenue (which is essence means FAN INTEREST)? Or hire good coaches? Those are the top 2 by far in my mind but which one wins the day?

Kyle's right hand clearly seems to be Mark. Since he oversees all external, I think this falls right into his lap. I would guess his left hand is either Leanna, Nona, or Emily. (Leanna being SWA, Nona overseeing NIL, and Emily handing internal).

Yep, Mark is his formal right hand, structurally. But...from a hands-on perspective, I would think you'd want this new position person right on your hip.
