With Joel Maturi retiring as athletics director June 30, Thompson said his door is "open" to his alma mater for discussions about the opening.

"But there would be a million questions to learn more about the position," he said. "For example, is there a budget deficit? Is fundraising the issue? Is the focus on rebuilding the football program? Are there academic concerns? Is there a support system to graduate student-athletes? There would be a lot more to know about the needs and wants of the athletic department before you can even think about taking the next step."
