Embattled U.S. athletics chief Doug Logan is still awaiting word on his future with USA Track and Field (USATF) and told Reuters on Sunday he had "not a clue" when the agonising uncertainty would end.
"I have no idea," Logan said in a phone call from Indianapolis. "I met with them for an hour (on Saturday).
"I was able to speak my sentiments. There were a few questions and then they went to dinner," the former Major League Soccer (MLS) commissioner added.
Logan, USATF's CEO since July 2008, has drawn fire for his hands-on leadership and desire for change, and the governing body's board of directors met in executive session in Las Vegas on Saturday and Sunday to discuss whether to retain him.
His contract runs through 2013.
The board meeting continued on Sunday without Logan who has received strong backing from nine times Olympic champion Carl Lewis for his work.
"I have not a clue when they will make a decision," Logan said.
USATF president Stephanie Hightower did not return telephone calls or text messages seeking comment.
She said earlier in the week the board wanted to thoroughly discuss the matter and would not be rushed into a decision.
She would not confirm what the board was discussing, although Logan said he was to be the sole topic of the meeting.
