Three names have emerged in the search for the next Fiesta Bowl executive director.

Big East senior associate commissioner Nick Carparelli, Pac-12 associate commissioner Kevin Weiberg and WAC commissioner Karl Benson all have either been mentioned in college circles or are interested. Fiesta officials here for the BCS meetings would not discuss any specific names of candidates

That bowl will cease to exist in 4 years with Benson at the helm.

sounds like he's looking for a lifeboat off a rapidly sinking ship

I'm questioning whether or not this would be a lateral move . . .

It sounds more like a payoff to keep his mouth shut before a Senate investigation of the BCS.
