Always loosely wondered if the names of Athletic Directors at HD schools had any sort of meaning or pattern, or if like player names they were randomly generated. Like, does the Ivy League AD list include surnames McCartney, Lennon, Harrison, and Starr, for example? Or Garvey, Lopes, Russell and Cey?
