Two Georgia senior athletic administrators received promotions last month while the person overseeing fundraising for the department is leaving for another job.
Senior associate athletic directors Jim Booz and Ted White now each have the title of executive associate athletic director.
Monica Lebron, associate athletic director of development who held the top position in the Georgia Bulldog Club since July of 2015, is moving on to Tulane as deputy athletic director and chief operating officer, the school announced on Monday.
Lebron, previously at Ole Miss, oversaw UGA athletic fundraising that raised a record $56.596 million in fiscal year 2016. Assistant athletic director Evin Beck is serving as the point person for the office as Lebron leaves at the end of this week.
Carla Williams remains the top deputy to athletic director Greg McGarity, who said Booz and White will take on added responsibilities in the department.
“Both Ted and Jim have done exceptional work for us in very complex situations,” McGarity.
Booz has overseen Georgia’s compliance department since October of 2011, helping Georgia navigate through NCAA investigations involving running back Todd Gurley, swim coach Jack Bauerle and recently the case of Maurice Smith coming to Georgia from Alabama as a graduate transfer after receiving an SEC waiver.
“I think he’s the best compliance director in the country,” McGarity said. “His plate has been full since his arrival with a myriad of issues that are public and many more that are not public that go in the daily life of the unexpected. Not only is it reactive to a lot of situations but there’s a lot of proactive measures that Jim has been exceptional in dealing with.”
White heads Georgia’s athletic academic services at the Rankin Smith Center, a position he’s held since May of 2006.
McGarity said White and his staff have helped “certainly change the academic performances of all our sports. It’s indicative of all the measurements that you have now.”
