West Virginia athletic director Oliver Luck is joining the NCAA as executive vice president of regulatory affairs.
The NCAA is creating a new position for Luck that will bring academic and membership affairs, the eligibility center and enforcement under one umbrella.
Luck will report to NCAA President Mark Emmert, who created the role during a restructuring of his senior staff earlier this year. Luck will start his new job early next year.
The 54-year-old Luck has been AD at his alma mater for four years. He orchestrated West Virginia’s move from the Big East to the Big 12.
He is also a member of the College Football Playoff selection committee.
Luck’s son, Andrew, is the Indianapolis Colts’ quarterback and the NCAA offices are based in Indianapolis.
