There has been some confusion regarding the wording of Dr. Barchi's letter. As you might have seen, he references the search for an interim athletic director in one section and then uses the word "permanent" later.
When Dr. Barchi started his search, he was searching for an interim hire. When he met Patrick Hobbs, he skipped over the interim hire and proceeded to hire him as the permanent AD.
