Description

Richmond BizSense invites you to register for the "Breakfast of Champions: The Big Business of the NCAA."

This breakfast event will feature insiders from the industry of college sports from Richmond and across the state.

Moderated by radio host Wes McElroy, our panel will explore the arms race to maintain big-time football and basketball programs, dig into the rash of recent conference realignments and take a crack at the debate over whether college athletes should be paid.

This networking opportunity includes breakfast. The event is limited to 125 attendees, and the price goes up to $65 the week of the event.

7:30 to 8:30 a.m.

Network with Richmond professionals (coffee/tea provided)

8:30 to 9:45 a.m.

Panel discussion and full breakfast buffet

9:45 to 10:30 a.m.

Network with panelists and attendees

Our panelists are (pictured at right, from top):

Cory Alexander, a former all-ACC point guard at UVA, where he led the team to the Elite Eight. Alexander was selected in the first round of the 1995 NBA draft and played for the Spurs, the Nuggets, the Magic and the Bobcats.

Byron Daub, senior director of brand sponsorships for Capital One. He oversees such national sponsorships as Capital One’s partnership with the NCAA, the Capital One Bowl, the Capital One Cup and more.

Glenn Hofmann, executive associate athletic director for external relations at VCU and part of a new regime charged with maintaining the Rams’ fast rise to national prominence. He has more than 20 years of collegiate athletics experience.

Lisa Rudd, associate director of athletics for financial affairs at Virginia Tech. She helps oversee one of the state’s biggest college sports budgets, fueled by the Hokies’ powerhouse football program.

Tom Yeager, commissioner of the Richmond-based Colonial Athletic Association since 1985. He is responsible for keeping the CAA competitive (two Final Four teams in the past seven years) amid seemingly nonstop conference realignment, including the departures of VCU, ODU and George Mason.

Our moderator will be Wes McElroy. McElroy is the afternoon host on Sports Radio 910 WRNL-AM, the pregame and halftime host on VCU’s RAM Radio and co-host of the Flying Squirrels Insider TV show.
