I'm not sure this is super cool. The guy is an asshole and I love any professional shit he takes, but that's no reason to take glee in the potential ill health of him or a loved one.
I heard they’re renovating his office or something.

there’s nothing wrong with his health. They just ran out of patience with him.

That's my guess. I walked past him on Saturday on the sidelines (hey look at me!) and he didn't look any different. But something seemed a little off. I'm guessing either he or his wife have a declining health issue, because the way this is playing out is a little odd.
He’s off because he’s pissed he’s getting pushed out and sad knows everybody knows it.

Doesn't make sense that "one of the best AD's" in the country would be retiring at a time when Iowa State needs him the most.
Hopefully, he is still going to be available to discuss the progress of Cy Town and if more bridges will be built.

Also, wonder if he will still enlighten the Big 10 and SEC on his take on college sports. He will be missed on those committees

Pollard just wants to quietly walk away. He doesn't want or need to be celebrated, guys
Ive seen many people of retirement age just up and retire with little fanfare. Some people just want to be done and don't need to be celebrated. Not surprised Chris "I'm A Very Special Boy" Hassel doesn't understand that concept.

Cytown is his baby. Now he’s walking away before it even opens?

I’m guessing that even cyclone fans know in their heart that cytown ever turning a profit is a pipe dream. There are plenty of commercial developments in far more high traffic areas that struggle, even when run by professionals.

What a break for WVU and then they completely fuck it up. Just go out of bounds and stop the clock.

We got the wrong player from Adel.

At RB, he passed for more TDs than Rocco did this weekend.

Meanwhile, Doll's personal foul penalty is the only notable play he's made in his career.

Jamie Pollard wants to be a girl. That’s what I took away from that.

Also, did he leave a picture of himself behind? And why is he stroking his door?

How is he going to get the attention he craves when he's retired?

He'll get it because every press release from now until the end of time in which whomever the current AD is, they will be referred to as the "Jamie and Ellen Pollard Endowed Director of Athletics"

Or until someone in that administration wises up and just knocks that stupid shit off....

The logo caress at the end was too much. Well the whole thing was cringey as fuck, but longingly caressing his stupid logo was the stupid cherry on top
That logo is so fucking awful, too.
