I don't think Frank cares if there is an AD in place. If he's willing to look past the shitty University/fan support, why the eff would he care about the AD?
I do question whether Miami will feel compelled to move on a basketball hire without first filling the AD spot.
It has been over a month since their AD spot was vacated. You have to wonder how long the process will take for the basketball had coach replacement. I guess, not that it really matters though, it gives them longer to get their moeny people together.
