OT - Compliance Position at UM

Submitted by Hab on

For anyone with a hard-on for NCAA compliance related issues, UM is currently searching for an Assistant Director of Compliance.  Given our penchant to hash out everything related to NCAA compliance, I figured there might be a few experts who frequent the baords for whom this might be a dream job.

EDIT:  Just actually read the announcement.  Get your rear in gear.  Today is the deadline.  :/

When I'm hired I will just take the officals out for an evening in Chicago. It would be an epic time and all would be forgiven by the next morning. I will also acquire a lot of "interesting" evidence for blackmail purposes. I know what I'm doing; I'm the man for this position.

My group have friends have always discussed how this is the NCAA biggest issue, fans of the university shouldn't be part of a compliance team, it's no wonder schools get away with everything who would turn on the team they love?

That's pretty typical where I work too, where positions are posted as a formality, and I am sure the University does it quite a bit. My personal favorite though is when someone leaves for another job, either internal or external, and they DON'T post the position, usually meaning either they were caught offguard totally or the plan is to "politely ask" someone to take it on in addition to everything else that person is doing already.

After 20 years of Financial Services Compliance, would be a nice change.  But I know nothing about NCAA rules other than they are stupid and subject to whatever the powers that be wanted them to be, after the fact.

During law school I interned for 3 years in a Big Ten school's athletic compliance office. Like any job, it has it's positives and negatives. My favorite part was writing petitions to the NCAA for waivers on behalf of injured student athletes seeking additional years of eligibility. It was the only time I felt like I was doing something to benefit the student athlete. A lot of the time you are collecting seemingly useless data to report to the NCAA. I can remember having to call the summer employers of all of the athletes on the men's swimming team to collect their pay stubs to show the NCAA they were actually working for their money. Another negative is that, in my experience, nobody liked you. To many of the coaches and athletes, you were agents of the NCAA sent to meddle in their lives and tell them they can't do stuff. To the NCAA you were part of the particular athletic department and not worth their time. I briefly considered it as a career post-law school, but when I saw the starting salary I quickly determined it wasn't worth it.

We're constantly going over compliance rules, what with Satellite camps, spring breaks at IMG. If IMG is not the correct title it's because of the CRS my wife has diagnosed me with.  It can strike as early as the age of 25, or was it 30? I Can't Remember..
