COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — Missouri was set to name Houston athletic director Mack Rhoades as the school's new AD, according to multiple reports.

The school's board of curators was meeting Monday morning. Rhoades would succeed Mike Alden, who announced in January that he'd be stepping down at the end of the summer.

According to reports, the 49-year-old Rhoades was a candidate for Texas A&M's athletic director opening in 2012 when Missouri chancellor R. Bowen Loftin was president at that school.

Rhoades has been at Houston since 2009.
