Troy University has announced the resignation of Athletic's Director Steve Dennis.
In an emailed release, Dennis stated the following:
"Troy
University is a special place and I have been privileged to play a role
in the growth and development of its athletic program over the past
seven-and-one-half
years. The University will always hold a special place in my heart and
my family will always be a TROY family.
I
have presented my resignation as Director of Athletics to Chancellor
Hawkins effective September 30. Our athletic department has accomplished
a great
deal at TROY, and I believe this is the right time in my life to explore
other opportunities. In announcing my departure, I thank the members of
the coaching and support staffs of the Department of Athletics and I
cannot thank Chancellor Hawkins enough for
giving me this opportunity. He is a tremendous leader but most of all
he is a great human being and it has been a privilege to work for and
learn from him. I am sure that great things lie ahead for Trojan athletics and I look forward
to watching the growth and maturity of the program in the years to come."
