Mini Pod #3 - Tough Choices for Colleges / Impact of NIL and Portal / Coaching Softball
•
Tory Acheson & Don McKinlay
Colleges are having to make tough choices regarding sports. Some just don't have the money to invest in all sports so they may have to eliminate some sports to keep competitive.
Will the use of NIL and the transfer portal create a new way to have success quickly?
More former players are entering the coaching profession, we wonder if that is reaching far enough into youth teams.
