Jack Swarbrick, Lawyer, as Notre Dame's Athletic Director

Posted by Jeff Lipshaw

The sports media all over the place is reporting that Jack Swarbrick, Stanford Law '80, a partner at Baker & Daniels in Indianapolis, and a good friend, is about to be named the new athletic director at the University of Notre Dame. 

I want to express, as a loyal son of Michigan, my deep disappointment that Notre Dame has managed to make such a good choice.  Nevertheless, I am thrilled for Jack (assuming it's true), and though it really grinds my gears to say this, he will be a classy leader to a classy program.
