Well, he has to decide what intramural sports will be available based upon interest. He then has to determine the schedule that each sport will be played, and develop schedules for each league and sport based upon the number of teams. He also has to determine how intramurals will be set up. Where I went to law school they made you sign up for all sports at the beginning of the year. If you didn't sign up at that time then your team couldn't participate. On the other hand, where I went to undergrad, each sport was individual and you signed up just before that sport started. He will also have to make sure that he has the right number of people in order to make those sports work. He has to hire refs that are qualified to referee or umpire each sport, and may have to set up a program to train people. He also has to have scorekeepers and probably ensure there is a medical staff available if needed (at least some colleges have that). He also has to make sure that each sport has the proper equipment and field/court. For instance, the lines being properly painted on the field for flag football, and enough flags for each game. Also, has to determine some of the rules for each sport. For instance, in slow pitch softball they may implement different rules on how many home runs a team is allowed to hit. Also have to determine how the post seasons of each sport will be played, if they play post seasons at all. So, there can kind of be a lot that goes into it I suppose.
I am sure that the CoIS position is merely a way to get him more money. NAIA schools typically have very small budgets for their sports programs and therefore can not justify paying coaches what they deserve versus providing new safe equipment for the players. Craig will oversee the intramural operation while most of the time and grunt work will be performed by students on the federal work study program.
I used to referee Franklin in basketball. I also ref'ed Hanover College. Those two are rivals and go at it hard.
I ref'ed during the period when UK's JV team, when Nazr Mohammed played at UK, and Hanover beat UK.
That is a good brand of basketball whether people know it or not. Imagine all the best basketball players in the better high schools around the state. Not the ultra elite players but guys that can spar with the power teams. That is who play on that level. So, Craig Yeast has a nice stair stepping job for his resume.

Comebakcatz is pretty accurate in describing what you need to do to run an intramural program. I work in Rec Sportss at Duke running their club sports program but we have 3 full time staff who run our intramural program
They used to be NAIA, not sure when they went to NCAA. I went to Manchester, a conference rival, back in the dark ages and we were both NAIA
I lived in Madison for a few years hanover was just a few miles away,a long time ago.They did have some good teams.
