Re: Hawaii AD search
A source close to the search says there’s growing frustration among local leadership, even on campus and some prominent members that the promised transparency has been kept behind closed doors.

On the Hawaii AD search, I’m being told it’s up & running now, but hitting some challenges. The industry is hesitant due to how the previous AD was let go, turning off candidates. A lot of no’s so far, but Hawaii’s goal & expectation is to get someone w/AD experience.

Regarding the PAC media deal, top numbers in being told would be $12-14 million depending on when they play (late time slots), so may end up less if they prioritize more favorable start times.
As with everything, fluid situation.

Regarding @ExtraPointsMB reports this morning, on the MW, sources say:
Non-football schools would get a "half-share", around $2.5 million. This also points to a new media deal nearing completion, likely an ask from a media partner to make the deal more attractive for both sides

NEW: The Pop-Tart Bowl trophy is back and better than ever ... it is now a fully functional toaster trophy!
Pop-Tart partnered with GE Appliances to build this one-of-a-kind toaster trophy. It is about 1.3x the size of a normal football + can toast full-size Pop-Tarts.
