We talk a lot about coaches that are on the hot seat here, but I’m always intrigued to go one level deeper and look at which ADs have their fortunes tied to the hot seat (or now fired) coaches that they hired.

Some that seem pretty warm:

Wisconsin AD Chris McIntosh (Luke Fickell)

Auburn AD John Cohen (Hugh Freeze)

UAB AD Mark Ingram (Trent Dilfer, peace be upon him)

Who are some others? Florida State’s Mike Alford? UCLA’s Martin Jarmond? Oregon State’s Scott Barnes?
