UCLA athletic director Martin Jarmond, whose stewardship of Bruin athletics has come under increasing scrutiny, is being replaced by former Lakers executive Tim Harris in a massive shakeup, the California Post has learned. Harris will serve as athletic director and CEO of the athletic department on a pro bono basis effective immediately, with UCLA chancellor Julio Frenk announcing the move to the university community Monday afternoon as part of what he described as a “new path forward for UCLA Athletics. ” “We have all watched as the landscape of college athletics has transformed in recent years, driven by the introduction of Name, Image and Likeness (NIL), new models for student-athlete compensation and a rapidly changing sports marketplace,” Frenk wrote in his message.
