Kevin Anderson, former Maryland athletic director, back in college athletics with new job
Anderson was Maryland's AD from 2011 to 2018, his tenure ending after his relationship with then-school president Wallace Loh gradually deteriorated and he was replaced by Damon Evans, who remains Maryland's A.D. He worked with Pine at Army from 2005 to 2008, Pine serving as an associate A.D.
