Western Kentucky's Ross Bjork has been named Mississippi's new athletic director.

The 39-year-old Bjork has been the athletic director at Western Kentucky since March 2010 and also has worked in the athletic departments at UCLA, Miami and Missouri. Mississippi announced Bjork's hiring Wednesday afternoon and will have an official news conference Thursday.

The Dodge City, Kan., native will take over for Pete Boone in mid-April. Boone announced his retirement in November after more than 13 years as Mississippi's AD.

Ole Miss chancellor Dr. Dan Jones, along with a committee led by former Rebels quarterback Archie Manning and FedEx chairman Mike Glenn, made the Bjork hire.
