The Albuquerque Tribune reports today NCAA hoops official Rick Hartzell is one of three finalists for the University of New Mexico's athletic director job.

Why do we mention the Lobos job hunt? Hartzell is the former Bucknell AD and currently holds that same post at his alma mater, Northern Iowa.

Given his track record at BU and UNI, both schools have enjoyed successes on and off the field under Hartzell's guidance, you'd have to figure on Hartzell being a very strong candidate.
