    John Carroll University's momentum continues with a new era for athletics: The Blue Streaks will join the North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC) in Fall 2025. “At John Carroll, students can pursue excellence in the classroom and on the playing field without sacrificing one for the other,” said Director of Athletics Brian Polian ‘97. “We work everyday to attract the type of student who wants an exceptional Jesuit education and who wants to compete at the highest level of Division III athletics. We believe that joining the NCAC aligns John Carroll with peer institutions that share a common mission and that attract students from across the country.” Read more at https://lnkd.in/gcNkKSXv

    Urban Meyer, a coach I respect, was talking about the state of college football, discussing the new "flexibility" with players transferring, and coach Deion Sander's imminent domain at CU. He called it a "grand experiment." My question is: can we really reverse this trend and go back to the way it was if it doesn't work out? Or will the blow-back to reversal be so intense we can’t go back? Then what will differentiate college football from pro-football? Maybe we should change the designation from college football to pre-pro football. 😄  The Colorado Buffalos in the Pre-pro League.

    Completed our first Young Alumni Panel for Athletics tonight! I’ve always admired the impact that alumni can have on current student-athletes. We are so thankful for our alumni who shared their experiences & how athletics helped prepare them for their current careers! Some gems from our alumni: - The biggest resource for you to manage isn’t going to be money, it’s going to be your time. - Learn to say no. - Communicate. Communicate. Communicate. - Bet on yourself.

    ⚖️ Up next in the State of College Sports series with 50 of the most impactful leaders across #collegiateathletics is a discussion about the effort to secure federal legislation in reforming the industry. Steve Hank, Affinaquest EVP for Collegiate Athletics, joined the conversation, sharing his concerns about competitive balance when various states have unique laws, allowing student-athletes in different states to follow different policies. "What federal legislation would do is really provide a framework that the states can't mess with." Read more from these #collegesports leaders here: https://lnkd.in/eY3dx-wV .

    College realignment is not done yet! Rumors are swirling that the Big 12 has resumed conversations to welcome Gonzaga as a basketball only member.  In light of this news, we took a look at the Bulldog’s potential impact: 🏀 Over the past two seasons, Gonzaga basketball games averaged over 1.4M viewers, totaled over 7B viewing minutes, and generated over $290M in broadcast value. 🏀 Gonzaga’s viewership and broadcast value would have ranked 2nd in the Big 12 (behind only Kansas) during this time period. 🏀 Gonzaga also generated significant value across its social media platforms; once again ranking 2nd in the conference over the past two seasons. Gonzaga would clearly add significant value to the Big 12, which is already making a strong case as the nation’s best college basketball conference.
