LOS ANGELES—Mike Bohn, USC’s athletic director since 2019—under whom the Trojans hired Lincoln Riley as football coach and announced their impending move to the Big Ten Conference—has resigned his position, university President Carol L. Folt announced on May 19.

“I am writing to let you know that I have accepted Mike Bohn’s resignation as director of athletics, effective today,” Folt wrote in a letter addressed to the “Trojan community.”
