Biography

Keith McCluney was hired as FAU’s Associate Athletic Director for Development on June 1, 2017. McCluney makes his way back to the South Florida region after almost three years of leading the Blue Raider Athletic Association at Middle Tennessee State University. Under his leadership, the Blue Raider Athletic Association experienced unprecedented growth and completely overhauled their development process while positioning the organization for sustained long-term annual fund growth and preparing the donor pool for future major capital projects. During his tenure at MT, McCluney led two major capital projects. The renovation of the Athletics Sports Performance Center had an immediate and direct impact on student-athlete performance and success as it produced bowl appearances, conference championships and multiple NCAA Tournament berths. The premium space renovation of the Floyd Stadium Open Air Box seating area also served as a major upgrade to the most sought after area of all athletic inventory and provided a substantial increase in revenue while greatly improving the game day experience. MT Athletics also opened a $6 million indoor tennis center (Adams Tennis Complex) during this era of unprecedented growth and revitalization and has hosted local, regional and national events since its opening.
