In tone and substance, an annual budget meeting yesterday confirmed the seriousness of Lee Todd's desire to change how University of Kentucky athletics does business.
The UK Athletics Association board of directors learned that a new restrictive policy on cars will go into effect on July 1. The number of cars provided athletics department personnel will be cut nearly in half: to 28 from the present 51.
Cars will continue to be provided for the athletics director, coaches and assorted other personnel provided their use can be "justified for recruiting or if stated in the employment contract."
Todd tied the restrictive car policy to his "one university concept," which means no perks for athletics personnel that are not given to equivalent UK employees outside athletics.
