D1.relocation COO Daniel Feig talks with D1.ticker’s Kristen Eargle about the launch of the relocation services company focused solely on the college athletics marketplace. Feig, the former USC Upstate (DI) AD, explains that those who subscribe for the service or whose destination athletic departments are partners will hear from a customer service specialist within two hours of D1.relocation receiving the information. The specialists are all connected to collegiate athletics, whether they’re a former athletic administrator or a coach’s spouse – “someone that really understands the difficulty and challenge of this process.” Services range from big-picture assistance like highlighting short-term housing options and identifying trusted real estate agents to time-saving tasks like finding utility providers and offering pertinent information about the community. “You can just kind of picture a hotel concierge service. That’s what we’re providing along the way. … It’s really from A to Z trying to make this process as turnkey as possible.” Lots more from Feig. (link)

The Washington Post’s Kent Babb highlights the role the Madden video games have played in developing a new generation of coaches who grew up refusing to punt on fourth downs, memorizing defensive schemes and calling audibles via their controllers. Central Michigan (DI) AC Ryan McNamara, who never actually played football but learned the game by playing Madden, got his start by working as a video game tester for EA Sports. He eventually landed a role with Mississippi State (DI) where he watched Auburn (DI) film and noticed tells for when the Tigers were preparing to run the “Power” concept. Realizing it was in Madden, he says the solution was also the same and devised a hybrid coverage to counter it. Also, rather than conduct a weekly call with a recruit, he would challenge the prospect to an online game of Madden, then spend the four quarters speaking into a gaming headset about the upsides of signing with the Bulldogs. Houston (DI) HC Dana Holgorsen: “This generation is different from the last. If you are not willing to adapt or try new perspectives or techniques, it could be difficult conveying your message.” (link)
