Another stop on the HEA Road Trip was a sit down with Tulsa AD Justin Moore. Justin is an AD that I don’t see or hear do interviews too much so it was fun to ask him questions I had not heard him discuss: Going from huge Texas A&M to leading the smallest FBS institution. Football scheduling strategy to get OK State and Arkansas to come to Tulsa. Behind the men’s basketball success to NIT championship. The future of March Madness. How they were able to bring back men’s golf. How Joe Fields was ready so quick to be the AD at New Mexico State. Breaking down how to host a country concert at the football stadium.
