As South Carolina gets set to begin its search for a new AD, SBJ’s Ben Portnoy notes a few names to keep an eye on at the Group of 5 level, which include Toledo AD Bryan Blair, Army West Point AD Mike Buddie, Georgia Southern AD Jared Benko, Arkansas State AD Jeff Purinton and Coastal Carolina AD Chance Miller. Tennessee Deputy AD of Championship Resources/CRO Ryan Alpert “should also get a look.” Portnoy goes on to submit that it’ll be interesting to see how much interest there is among sitting Power 4 ADs, particularly those in the ACC and Big 12. “It ranked 12th out of 15 public SEC schools in total revenue during the 2023 fiscal year, per USA Today’s college athletic department financial database. Still, the facilities are in a good spot, and there’s general stability around its head coaches in football (assuming things continue on an OK path for Shane Beamer), baseball and men’s and women’s basketball. That confluence of factors may make it an intriguing proposition for a Big 12 or ACC AD looking to seek a job in a conference with significant long-term stability. That is, of course, if South Carolina is willing to pay.” (link) 

NJ Advance Media’s Steve Politi profiles Rutgers Interim AD Ryan Pisarri’s journey in college athletics, and AAC Commissioner/former Rutgers AD Tim Pernetti recalls: “I’ve never dealt with a more persistent individual who wanted to break into the business than Ryan — never. He told me he would do anything.” Politi notes that in August 2011, Pernetti had an opening as an assistant academic coordinator for the men’s basketball team. “Pisarri, then in his mid ‘20s, was making six figures in the financial world. This job paid just $20K without benefits. Even Pernetti wasn’t sure he should take it.” Now, Politi observes that “Pisarri has an incredible opportunity. He not only will lead the department at a time of high expectations for the football and men’s basketball process, but he could see it through a crucial time in college sports history.” That said, Politi notes: “This cannot be emphasized enough: Rutgers absolutely must conduct a national search to replace Hobbs given the importance of the job and the mistakes made in the past filling it. The stewardship of a Big Ten program is a coveted role, and whether the process takes weeks or months, Rutgers should leave no stone unturned in finding the right leader.” Meanwhile, Pisarri appears to have the confidence of Football HC Greg Schiano, who remarked earlier this week: “[Pisarri] is a guy that wants to work, wants to get it done and wants to make sure that he’s doing everything that he can to help our program and all the athletics programs here at Rutgers. I’m pleased with everything he’s done, and really, it’s been seamless.” Pisarro has worked as the football team’s sport administrator since Schiano’s return in 2019. (link)

Former UMBC AD Brian Barrio has dropped his lawsuit against the school, which he argues “scapegoated” him amid a swimming coach’s sexual misconduct scandal. It’s unclear why Barrio voluntarily dropped the case. If the parties have settled, the agreed amount would require public approval by the Maryland Board of Public Works, according to The Daily Record’s Ian Round, who adds: “UMBC’s director of media relations did not answer a call and an email seeking comment. Barrio’s legal team, from the firm Offit Kurman, did not respond to multiple requests for comment either.” (link)

The Athletic’s Chris Vannini adds to reporting that Memphis and Tulane are the Pac-12’s top expansion targets and explains that “while conversations are being had, it’s not clear the two are sold yet on the league’s speculative plan.” Meanwhile, UTSA, North Texas, USF and Texas State “are among the other central/eastern options the Pac-12 is looking into, with UTSA considered the favorite among the group. Getting into Texas is especially important for certain Pac-12 schools, and each prospective member has its own selling point. UTSA’s plan to merge with UT Health San Antonio will be a huge boost for the school and its resources — the kind of move school presidents like — and it’s located in a big city that has supported UTSA football.” As far as UNLV goes, the belief is that the Rebels “can ultimately split from fellow university system member Nevada for a conference move if needed. … The Pac-12’s availability as an option for UNLV and Air Force is more likely if the conference strikes out on its eastern swing attempts.” The AAC is targeting Air Force, but Vannini notes the question is what happens to the academy’s other sports. “Army and Navy are football-only members in the AAC, playing most other sports in the Patriot League. The AAC could take many of Air Force’s other sports, but if it doesn’t, the West Coast Conference or some combination involving the WAC, Summit or other leagues could be a possibility.” As for the Mountain West, Vannini reports UTEP and Texas State are potential targets, while Sam Houston, Tarleton State and New Mexico State could also be options.

Heather Brown, a member of the Nevada System of Higher Education Board of Regents, on UNLV and Nevada being tethered: “If (UNLV) were approached by a conference and it makes sense, my understanding is they would have to get board approval. But there’s nothing we would have to untether. There is no package. Nobody talks about them as a package. … There is nothing structurally that ties them together.” Brown adds of regent Byron Brooks’ recent comments to the contrary: “One of the regents was quoted publicly. He lacked an understanding of the historical context. They have only spent 12 years in the same conference.” (link)

At today’s Knight Commission meeting, Southern Conference Commissioner Michael Cross presented a draft of a new NCAA governance model that divides DI into Subdivision A: Power 4 + those they wish to include and Subdivision B: the others, according to Yahoo’s Ross Dellenger, who explains: “Subdivision B will also be known as ‘the Collegiate Premier Subdivision’ that is committed to an education-based model, says UNC Asheville AD Janet Cone. The draft is a 10-year plan where (the hope) is there is no change to NCAA championship access & revenue-distribution. Goal of dividing DI: (1) appease power leagues wishing to change rules to spend more of their $$ (pay athletes?); (2) appease lower-resourced leagues wishing to legislate competitive equity among themselves; (3) maintain competition between groups in regular season/championships.” (link)

Meanwhile, the Knight Commission announces the Big Sky, MAAC, and Southern Conference as the recipients of its inaugural C.A.R.E. Model Conference Grants, which support their commitment to the C.A.R.E. Model principles in their distribution and use of shared athletics revenues. The Knight Commission certified the MAAC and SoCon as the nation’s first C.A.R.E. Champions by fully implementing all the C.A.R.E. Model requirements, which prioritize the education and well-being of college athletes while integrating education-based principles in financial incentives and athletics spending. The Big Sky is on track to fully implement all C.A.R.E. Model principles and will receive the C.A.R.E. Champion distinction upon completion. (link)

ESPN Senior NBA Insider Adrian Wojnarowski is retiring from ESPN and the news industry and will take over as GM of the St. Bonaventure men’s basketball team. Woj: "I'm thrilled and humbled to return to St. Bonaventure with an opportunity to serve the university, Coach Mark Schmidt and our elite Atlantic 10 men's basketball program. In these changing times of college sports, I'm eager to join a championship program that combines high-level basketball, national television exposure, pro preparation and NIL opportunities with an intimate, supportive educational environment." As GM, Wojnarowski will serve the coaching staff in managing a wide range of responsibilities, including NIL opportunities and as a liaison with collectives; transfer portal management; recruit, family and alumni player relationships; professional player programs; and program fundraising.

Former Oakland/Las Vegas Raiders/Tampa Bay Buccaneers HC Jon Gruden tells CBS’ Brandon Marcello he continues to await “due process” concerning the emails that led to his firing in 2021 and adds that he would be interested in coaching in college. “My dad was a college coach, I was a college coach at Pitt, my wife was a cheerleader at Tennessee when I met her. Hell yeah, I'm interested in coaching. I know I can help a team, I know I can help young players get better, and I know I can hire a good staff, and that's the only thing I can guarantee. But yeah, I'm very interested in coaching at any level, period." Marcello subsequently asked several ADs and agents to gauge the marketplace’s interest in Gruden, and one Group of 5 AD said: "If I was in the market right now, would I interview Jon Gruden? Yeah, probably. There'd be no reason not to. Now, if I was at Florida, no, I'm not doing that. It's not the right fit, right time. A lot of that depends on the right job. One of the things with a Group of 5 [school] is you can take a more calculated risk." Meanwhile, an SEC administrator called Gruden “untouchable.” Still, after years of rejecting overtures from college teams, Gruden says: "If there's somebody out there that thinks they need a candidate, somebody to come in there, maybe lather it up a little bit, jazz it up a little bit, I'll be down here in Tampa. I'll be ready to go if needed." Another G5 AD tells Marcello: "If you choose to go down the road, you have to have people at a pretty strong level of agreement or disagreement. Yeah, it could be considered, but it would definitely not be a unilateral decision." (link)

The NABC is currently pursuing an extension of its partnership with the NCAA, “with the goal of securing the NABC Convention’s future at the Final Four in 2025 and beyond. However, with negotiations still ongoing, plans for the 2025 NABC Convention have not yet been finalized. We are simultaneously hard at work preparing contingencies – which include engaging alternative sites – in the event an extension cannot be reached. This model would be consistent with other sports’ coach associations, nearly all of which hold their annual conventions separate from NCAA championships.” Executive Director Craig Robinson adds: “The origins of the NABC’s partnership with the NCAA date back nearly a century, and we believe collaboration between our two organizations serves the overall good of the sport. But our top priority in this process is the best interests of our members, and we are not prepared to sacrifice the NABC’s long-term wellbeing.” (link)

Facility Files…

+ The Norman City Council has approved the proposed $1.2B Rock Creek Entertainment District, which would include a new arena for Oklahoma sports. The council voted 5-4 in favor of accepting the project plan for the entertainment district as well as establishing two tax increment financing districts to help fund the project. Following the meeting, Sooners AD Joe Castiglione remarked: "I'm not prepared to say how much it has changed the schedule, but going back several months ago, we projected that we'd have to alter the schedule that we had, say, last fall. I'm not prepared to speak in any specifics about the schedule, but the one that we've laid out in July is pretty close to the one that we're going to try to meet and we'll see if we can make it happen." Project proponents had hoped the arena within the district would be ready to host OU basketball games and women’s gymnastics meets by 2027 or 2028. However, multiple delays in the project’s approval have already affected the development schedule for the arena, per Tulsa World’s Mason Young, who adds: “The probability of a referendum could impact the timeline of the arena's completion further. Based on the numerous public commenters at the meeting who were against the TIF, it seems highly likely that citizens will file a petition to repeal the city council's vote. There would then be a vote of the people to ultimately determine if the city would contribute tax dollars to the project. … OU is expected to contribute $100M toward the $330M total project cost (including $25M upfront) of the arena and supporting infrastructure. The remaining $230M would be paid by the TIF.” (link)

In case you missed this morning's D1.ticker edition…

The ACC is exploring a new revenue structure meant to bring an end to its legal battles with Clemson and Florida State. According to Yahoo’s Ross Dellenger, league presidents “recently examined a proposal that would distribute revenue differently to league members in a move to provide stability and preserve the membership of Florida State and Clemson. Nothing is imminent and particulars of the deal remain mostly private…but leaders have reviewed a plan to create a separate pot of revenue to be divided based on media value metrics. This separate distribution would be specifically tied to a school’s television viewership ratings for football and potentially basketball.” Conference leaders are also examining amending the GOR, which Dellenger notes would presumably be shortened. “It is unclear if enough support exists to approve these drastic moves. The belief is that, at the very least, a two-thirds majority is necessary.” Dellenger adds: “The proposal is seen as a temporary solution to keep them in the conference ahead of any court decision over the validity of the grant of rights. A potential loss in court that immediately opens the grant of rights could have a catastrophic impact not only on the ACC but other conferences, setting a precedent for all schools to break what were at first thought to be binding agreements.” (link)

ESPN’s David Hale and Andrea Adelson report the GOR could be shortened to as early as 2030 “to better fall in line with the expiration of TV deals in the Big 12 and Big Ten. While the basic talking points of the proposal had some support within member schools, there were significant questions about the details. As one athletic director who supported the general idea noted, properly evaluating something like TV ratings can be difficult with numerous outside factors influencing kickoff times, networks and ratings share that may not directly reflect a program's value. Several administrators who did not support the proposal did admit there was a potential incentive to continue discussions if it helped insure the future of the conference for the foreseeable future, with one noting that it would be better than seeing the ACC fall apart completely and another suggesting a brand-based revenue split could be inevitable for every league as TV contracts continue to grow and leagues continue to expand. The ACC is also in talks with ESPN,” which has until February 2025 to decide whether to extend the media rights deal from 2027 to 2036. (link)

AAC Commissioner Tim Pernetti was in Memphis yesterday and told reporters that conversations about conference realignment did come up when he spoke to Tigers AD Ed Scott: “And it’s not the first conversation we’ve had about it. In fact, I had a conversation with him about the broader landscape of expansion before…he actually started the job. So we had a good conversation about it. You know, at times like this, the vibe in the league where everybody is sharing information and being transparent with each other, is a very good vibe. And I think information is the most important thing right now. You guys are doing your jobs. Everybody’s speculating and reading. I don’t think the speculation does anybody any good, but we do have a lot of really healthy dialogue going on around us, and it was a really productive discussion. … As far as my comment about the importance of Memphis being successful for the league to be successful, it’s an important market, first and foremost. It’s a terrific brand, which is also the case. And I think the more success we can have here, it will benefit the conference and its membership as well. It’s not to say that their success is any more important than anybody else’s. We want everybody else achieving success as well.” (link)

In remarks to the media yesterday, freshly minted St. John’s AD Ed Kull said raising NIL money will be a priority for the men’s and women’s basketball programs: “I think we’re competing, I think we’re fighting, obviously there’s some good talent that’s arrived here. I’ve heard some large [NIL] numbers in terms of UConn and Villanova, I’ve done some research on that. Marquette as well, so I know there are some high numbers there, too. That’s something that needs to be sustainable, that’s something that needs to continue to grow because I don’t see it going away. We all hope that someday there will be some cap of some sort, but until then that’s gotta be a priority in terms of getting talent here and that’s also an opportunity for us. Yes, we’re going to continue to improve our facilities and continue to invest in capital projects, but if NIL is a means of getting us top talent and helping [Men’s Basketball HC Rick Pitino] win, then that becomes a priority very, very quickly, if not already.” Pitino agrees that it will be important for Kull to prioritize fundraising: “We don’t have football, so I think fundraising is No. 1. I think No. 2 on the agenda, and that’s from the President on down, is to build a social life for the student-athletes as well as the students on campus. We have a very pretty campus, but the student socialization is not great, that has to be No. 2. And then 3, it’s winning for all the sports.” (link)

Tennessee AD Danny White tells The Athletic’s Bruce Feldman he doesn’t really differentiate between NIL and revenue-sharing when it comes to the impact of raising ticket prices and adding a “talent fee.” White: “I really categorize all of it as resources going to the student-athletes, whatever label you want to put on it. If the settlement goes through, that is going to look like an agreed-upon revenue share. I don’t see any iteration where we’re not providing resources to them, if you want to call it NIL, you wanna call it revenue share, the financial reality stays the same.” White also tells Feldman donor fatigue is setting in among donors asked to shoulder the burden of the load: “We need better organization around the whole thing. This is a way for our fan base to help with a portion of it, certainly not all of it. It’s not just NIL and (revenue) share, it’s also the scholarship limits that are also being discussed as part of this settlement. If scholarship limits go away, there’s significant expense with that as well if we want to compete for national championships in every sport that we have, which we’re committed to doing at Tennessee.” On the talent fee itself, White says: “After talking about it a lot, we said, let’s just be transparent with our fans — tell them exactly what it is, and that’s where we came up with the concept of a talent fee.” (link) 

Washington AD Pat Chun talks to SBJ’s Ben Portnoy about preparing to share revenue with student-athletes despite having only been at UW for roughly six months. “The nice thing for me is I started at the end of March, and the discussion [around] revenue share started happening a couple weeks after that. That kind of forces all of the niceties to go away, because we needed to come up with some real solutions. In terms of just trying to get to know an athletic department better, nothing helps build relationships and trust like when you have real problems to solve. … I remind everyone we're in the Big Ten and the Big Ten and Washington have always been at the highest levels of benefits and services for student-athletes. That will not change.” (link)

More from Arkansas AD Hunter Yurachek on Monday at the Little Rock Touchdown Club on being an AD in the current era: “It has been terrible. It's been awful. [...] In college athletics, we are our own worst enemy. And we find the loophole to every single rule in the rule book, and we found a loophole where we created these things called collectives. And collectives are donors pooling their resources together to pay student-athletes, collectives under the auspices of doing work, charitable work, whether that was tweeting about a charitable organization or signing autographs or making public appearances. But the amounts of money that were getting paid were simply ridiculous and still are ridiculous and they just continue to be ridiculous. Because when businesses are making decisions, you make good business decisions, right? And if you're going to hire a student-athlete to market your business, you're going to pay them market value. Well, collectives aren't paying market value; they're just buying teams. And so that figure has grown to just a ridiculous number, and athletic directors are charged many times with going out and raising those dollars through various means." (link)

Nebraska AD Troy Dannen in a sitdown with NTV News says: “I’ve said many times the standard we should have in this department is that everyone else should aspire to achieve what Nebraska is and who Nebraska is. I’ve told our coaches I don't want to hear what Ohio State or Michigan's doing. I want Ohio State and Michigan to be going to their athletic directors telling them what Nebraska is doing. That should be the standard and anything less than that shouldn’t be acceptable. Doesn't happen overnight, but we're on a pretty good path right now to getting that done.” (link)

Ohio State AD Ross Bjork tells the AP’s Ralph Russo that the future of guarantee games is opaque not just because of their price tags, but also because of the diminished revenue on those game days. Russo notes that “games that don’t involve Big Ten or marquee non-conference opponents drag down revenue in areas such as concessions, souvenirs and parking. Ohio State’s gameday revenue for Akron and [Western Michigan] were almost identical.” Bjork adds: “Meaning there’s a ceiling on those type of games from a revenue standpoint versus when I look at our projections for a Big Ten opponent. Those games can be double, triple, quadruple the amount of revenue that we’re seeing for a guarantee.” Meanwhile, Kent State AD Randale Richmond notes there may be fewer games from a success standpoint among the teams who are making the trips. “I don’t love the model and at the same time understand the things that we have to do financially to run this athletic department, because we do have a great opportunity to impact the lives of young people. And we can only do that if we are meeting our budgetary demands and needs. … It makes it very difficult to gain momentum when you have three guarantee games. I can’t answer whether it’s fair or not. I can answer that it does make it difficult.” (link)

James Madison AD Matt Roan would like to see Bridgeforth Stadium used more throughout the year and says: “Obviously there is a lot of interest. When you look at, 'Are we going to expand? Are we going to re-imagine Bridgeforth?' Whether it’s the east side and beyond those walls, to me it’s always a shame when you make those sorts of investments and utilize it six or seven times a year … We want to look at utilizing suites and club spaces where almost 365 days a year that space is a hub of activity and it’s adding value to our football program, our athletic department and our institution, but I think also our local economy as well.” Roan notes, however, that JMU needs to be discerning about the events it does host at the stadium. “Anybody would assume a concert or concert series of some sort could be something that’s used for. That’s what’s outside. We want to protect the investments that we’ve made. You have to be careful what you put on a field. The last thing we want is a bunch of ruts underneath that synthetic surface that we spent a lot of money on. But I think about the spaces, the suites. Are you hosting dinners on a Friday night? Can you do different banquets?” (link)

Michigan State has received a $10M gift from alumni Kristen and Justin Ishbia. The donation includes $8.5M for the men’s basketball and baseball programs and $1.5M in previous NIL funds for student-athletes. Specifically, their gift will fund the baseball program and facility upgrades with the field at McLane Stadium, renamed from Kobbs Field to Jeff Ishbia Field, in honor of Justin’s father. Justin is the brother of United Wholesale Mortgage CEO/Phoenix Suns and Phoenix Mercury owner Mat Ishbia. (link)

Dartmouth unveils several improvements to Leede Arena, including a center-hung halo board, two end wall video boards and a new Daktronics scoreboard, equipped with in-game statistics sideboards. In addition, the scorer's tables will be outfitted with eight LED boards. Big Green AD Mike Harrity: "Beyond elevating the quality of the fan, coach and student experience, the arena's modernization will allow the facility to better support College-wide events such as the panel discussion with the Surgeons General about the future of mental health and wellness that we hosted in Leede during the last academic year.” (link)

The SEC is using Hawk-Eye Innovations’ video replay system for soccer and volleyball this fall, and SBJ’s Joe Lemire notes the “Sony-owned company is providing its Synchronized Multi-Angle Replay Technology (SMART) solution to capture, replay, clip and distribute video. It is the same system used by the NFL and other major leagues. For soccer, SMART has been installed in every SEC home venue, with six high-speed cameras complementing what’s recorded on broadcast. A replay operator sits in a designated room to review the video and communicate with the referee. In volleyball, 12 high-speed cameras have been added, including six ‘pylon cameras’ on the floor for in/out decisions. In this case, the review referee sits at the scorer’s table.” (link)
