Honestly, this will be a learning experience for him, as it would appear he's young and a bit of a greenhorn as college professional workplace experience goes (and the article pretty much confirms that.) That's fine, and everyone has to start somewhere. As talent analyst, I am sure he has good chops.

Also, if we look at the Toledo model, it would appear Blair has his own people and hierarchy structure for filling the needs and workflows for player target analysis, transfer negotiation, NIL facilitation, etc... and will work with whomever on the bball and fball coaching sides for player targeting and recruitment ...and honestly, it would not surprise me if Blair's team are more experienced (which would be a good thing). I expect Blair will facilitate a full restructuring on how we do this stuff, which is also a good thing, and a primary reason why he got the job... Modernize the support and capabilities infrastructure for player targeting, negotiation, and funding.

Tirico's interview with Steve and Paulie on OrangeNation yesterday basically confirmed this... He said the AD search team was really wowed by how Blair structured the department at Toledo to do all these modern athletics department management needs more efficiently... So things really sound like they are moving in a positive direction.
