HOUSTON, Texas -- The bad news for TSU is that athletic director Charles McClelland is leaving to become the commissioner of the Southwestern Athletic Conference.There is no good news.
That McClelland built what should be a sustainable program during his 10-year tenure is but a ray of sunlight on an otherwise dark day.
Not to put too much pressure on his successor, but McClelland isn't just one of the most influential men in HBCU athletics, he is one of the best athletic administrators in the country.
That compliment is offered without a qualifier, so don't look for one.
I have dealt with dozens of ADs since I started covering the Big 12 for the Chronicle 20 years ago this month, and not a one was better at their job than McClelland.
