"D1.relocation was able to provide resources from realtors, mortgage companies and even a moving company for not only myself but numerous new Charlotte Football Staff members. I highly recommend making D1.relocation one of your first calls." - Jake Kirkendall, Director of Football Operations at Charlotte

Big Sky Commissioner Tom Wistrcill to HERO Sports’ Sam Herder on the potential privatization of the FCS Playoffs: “You sit there with an open mind. You listen to lots of ideas, and your mind goes about 100 different directions with all of the various things at play. And it was very intriguing. It’s step one of a long process, but you have to take step one and have an open mind of different ideas. In this day and age with the financial pressures that our schools are under, we have to get creative in trying to find ways to help them out. And this is certainly worthy of our time to start exploring things like that. I felt like everybody had an open mind. Everybody was positive about the fact that we have to be open to these types of potential opportunities. And we decided, ‘Hey, let’s take the next step. Let’s talk to the NCAA. Let’s talk to our own people within our conferences about some of the things we learned. And then let’s see where it goes from there.’ I mean, it’s a little scary, it’s all new, it’s shiny, and cool, and scary. It has all of those different adjectives to it. But I think as a group, we were like, ‘Yeah, let’s crawl before we walk and see where it leads us.’ So that’s where we left the room.” (link)

A task force from the Congressional Black Caucus is in negotiations with its Republican colleagues to amend portions of the SCORE Act, some of which have already been agreed to, according to Yahoo’s Ross Dellenger. Representative Terri Sewell (D-AL), a member of the caucus, revealed that the group has reached an agreement on several changes to the legislation, adding that while “no piece of legislation is perfect, we know that something has to be done.” However, “it’s important that all views are taken into account when you’re talking about legislation that has an impact on such a big swath of peoples’ lives.” Specifically, Sewell says GOP members have agreed to changes with two of the caucus’ four areas of concern, including extending the bill’s medical provision that would require schools to provide five years of post-graduate healthcare rather than three and increasing athlete representation on NCAA governance committees from 25% to 35%. Dellenger: “The CBC and Republicans remain in negotiations, Sewell suggested, over the caucus’ desire to change the Act’s overseeing and enforcement entity from state attorneys generals to the Federal Trade Commission. Attorneys general enforcing the act is ‘problematic,’ she said, implying that their in-state bias serves as a conflict of interest.” (link)
