Cameron moves quickly and hires American International VP for Athletics Lou Izzi as its next AD. President John McArthur: “Working alongside Jim Jackson for the first month of his tenure will give Lou a fast-track to the inner workings of CU’s policies and procedures. Combined with his experience in the world of intercollegiate athletics, he will maintain the high standards of success that Jim established in both athletic competition and in the classroom. [...] In just two years at AIC, Lou set and achieved numerous goals, including increased student-athlete retention, new student recruitment achieved by expanding athlete recruiting nationally and internationally, increased department revenue and athletics giving and multiple facility renovations. His strategic planning and energetic approach to achieving goals will propel Cameron athletics to continuing success.” (link)
