While new to the B1G, I've been a Duck fan since 1951, and am a firm promoter of college football. You'll play a big part in my understanding of our future successes and challenges going forward.

Wishing you continued success with your new opportunity Yogi! My Jane is a Buckeye, so I’m very familiar with the B1G culture which has a rich culture nearly as amazing as that of the PAC-8-10-12.

It was a pleasure to have written several stories grounded in your personal, professional and passionate views of the PAC-12. You were kind, open and patient during several interviews I published on Cougfan.com.

Looking forward to watching you make an impact on the B1G. My thoughts and and prayers are with you.

Your love of family, friends and the game is evident in this piece Yogi…we are all lucky to have college football so ingrained in our lives here in the USA and as things change we must adapt and advance. Best wishes in your new position.

Congratulations Yogi but honestly bro nothing you accomplish surprises me. I learned a word “teleological” over 40 years ago in a communication class at SC and I truly believe it’s you, “goal orientated.” Shine bright brother Godspeed on the travels ahead.
