Following his career at CBU, Clint went to the University of Tennessee where he became a graduate assistant with the football program under Hall of Fame Coach, Philip Fulmer. Following Tennessee, he served as the Assistant Athletic Director for Football and External Relations at Bowling Green State University. In 2013, Dowdle was hired as the Chief of Staff / Sr. Associate Athletic Director at Kansas State University.
