Shortly after Sean Miller's press conference at McKale Center in May, Arizona athletic director Dave Heeke took some time to speak to the media.
Entering his second full year at the helm, Heeke has been one of the busiest athletic directors in the country. Dealing with a FBI investigation surrounding the UA men's basketball program, finding a new head football coach among other changes in the athletic department proved to be an eventful first year for Heeke.
Watch what Heeke had to say about heading into year two and where the UA athletic department currently stands.
