Beyond The Bench
By Todd Gordon
A podcast generated by three Iowa athletic directors for athletic directors. Each week we will talk about current program issues we are all dealing with as AD's, some hot topics and we will have some fun along the way talking about things happening with our family and friends. We'll talk with special guests including athletic directors currently doing the job, retired AD's and people we work with inside and outside of the school who help to make our programs successful. Join Todd Gordon, Scott Garvis, and Aaron Stecker for Beyond the Bench.
