CEDAR FALLS --- Nobody came more highly recommended than Troy Dannen.
In the end, nobody made a more positive impression on the 12 members of the search committee who spent more than a month helping the University of Northern Iowa find its new athletic director.
That process came to a conclusion Thursday when UNI announced Dannen, the executive director of the Iowa Girls' High School Athletic Union, had signed a four-year contract to become the leader of the Panther athletic department.
By all accounts, he was the majority choice among the search committee, which passed along three names to UNI vice president for administration and finance Tom Schellhardt for final consideration. The other two --- Cincinnati's Michael Waddell and Northern Illinois' Glen Krupica --- had extensive experience in college athletics administration.
