UNIVERSITY OF VERMONT

University of Vermont Athletic Director Robert Corran is leaving his post early, university officials confirmed Thursday. Corran, who is paid about $235,000 a year, is expected to wrap up work by the end of the school year. He had signed a three-year contract extension in 2013 that covered his work through June 30, 2016. The contract had an option for one additional year. Corran, who is in his mid-60s and has been athletic director since 2003, told his staff about his departure in an email and also during a 1 p.m. meeting, the university said. -Mike Donoghue and Austin Danforth, Burlington Free Press, Read More
