Alabama A&M AD finalist: Weidner sees A&M potential

HUNTSVILLE, Alabama -- William Weidner has spent more than half of his life in athletics. When he noticed Alabama A&M was looking for an athletic director, he jumped at the chance to get back in the game.

"I have a strong passion to return to intercollegiate athletics as a director of athletics," Weidner said Wednesday. "In my evaluation, I see a great fit here with where the program is and where they would like to go. I would like to be a part of a team effort to help them get there and build on the foundation that they have."

Weidner and Melvin Hines, who currently serves as the senior associate athletic director at Alabama State, interviewed for the job Wednesday. Bryan Hicks, the associate athletic director at Missouri State University, will be in town today to interview.

School officials have indicated they hope to name a new athletic director next month.
