NEW STORY: Will college athletic departments continue farming it out in a pandemic? Our deep dive into the $$ of college sports consulting, based on hundreds of contracts we FOIA& #39;d and interviews with top officials and consultants. #NCAA #longform https://theintercollegiate.com/covid-and-the-college-sports-consultant/">https://theintercollegiate.com/covid-and...
Before cutting sports this May, @ECUAthletics paid consultant Dave Hart, the former AD at Tennessee, $31,250/mo over 21 months. Hart& #39;s contract was extended twice, including after he installed his former @Vol_Sports deputy as ECU& #39;s AD. https://theintercollegiate.com/covid-and-the-college-sports-consultant/">https://theintercollegiate.com/covid-and...
. @GoCards AD Vince Tyra goes on-the-record discussing the school& #39;s much-critiqued hiring of Chuck Smrt and the millions of dollars #UL has spent on NCAA scandal-related third parties: "The legal bills don& #39;t come close to what you risk in terms of donations and ticket revenue."
We have lots on @ParkerSearch, including a 2018 letter between firm and @GoDucks AD Rob Mullens, in which the Parker agreed to take 1/2 its fee for the botched hiring of Willie Taggert, who bailed midway thru 1st season at Oregon. @uomatters @kennyjacoby

. @Vol_Football went into the backyard of an SEC Rival to hire, for $24,000, a mercurial @universityofga natural resources professor (?!) to consult with @CoachJPruitt on UT& #39;s recruiting practices. @GoVols247 @btoppmeyer
. @umterps paid “renowned mental conditioning expert” @TrevorMoawad $40K to help head coach Mike Locksley “with messaging in order for players to maintain a positive culture, as well as perspective and motivation.” @Jeff_Ermann @patrick_hruby @EmilyGiam https://theintercollegiate.com/covid-and-the-college-sports-consultant/">https://theintercollegiate.com/covid-and...
Remember fired NCAA official Julie Roe Lach from the botched Nevin Shapiro investigation at Miami? @HorizonLeague commish says he wanted her so badly as deputy, he let her maintain a full-time consulting practice while earning $200K in her conference job. https://theintercollegiate.com/covid-and-the-college-sports-consultant/">https://theintercollegiate.com/covid-and...
