The Big 12 is losing yet another well-known face, but this time it’s a person rather than a program. According to ESPN, Ed Stewart, a former Big 12 conference executive, is leaving the organization to work for USC football in a “high-ranking role.”
According to ESPN sources, Ed Stewart, one of the Big 12’s top officials, is leaving for a new position at USC.
Stewart, the executive senior associate athletic director for the Big 12, has been appointed to the position at USC. According to sources, he will be responsible for managing USC’s football program.
Ed Stewart, a former executive associate commissioner for the Big 12, will become an executive senior associate athletic director for USC football.
According to reports, Stewart’s job will also entail managing USC’s football program. At the Big 12, the former Nebraska linebacker will be sorely missed. Since the 2006 season, he has served as the conference’s top executive and has dealt with conference realignment.
Because of that experience, he reportedly stood out as a candidate for USC football, which will switch from the Pac-12 to the Big Ten in 2024. Stewart is also acquainted with Lincoln Riley, the new Trojans head coach and a former head coach at Oklahoma. With the Sooners, the two collaborated for five years.
Stewart and Riley will nоw wоrk tо restоre USC fооtball’s reputatiоn. Finding a replacement fоr Stewart’s pоsitiоn will fall under the purview оf new Big 12 cоmmissiоner Brett Yоrmack.
Every schооl and cоnference in the cоuntry cоntinues tо be impacted by vast changes.
