May not have had the "greatest" career as the HERD AD, but Bob Marcum was an alum and former MU player. He had a pretty solid overall career in Collegiate Athletics Administration at some known Major Programs. Also, was a pretty high official in NASCAR for a while.
Not a bad resume overall, IMO, for a local guy and Marshall Grad!! Did nothing to denigrate his roots and his MU degree!!
RIP, Bob Marcum. Condolences to his family.
