UCA hires PEAK Sports management company

[BEAR]

xeyebrowx Does any other FCS school use these companies? Sorry, UCA hasn't had one of these that has ever worked out. xlolx


The agreement provides UCA Athletics with a significant financial guarantee in each year that totals $3.3 million dollars over the life of the partnership. In addition, a revenue-sharing amount is distributed once thresholds are met that will considerably eclipse the aforementioned multi-million dollar guarantee.




The University of Central Arkansas Athletic Department has entered into a partnership with Peak Sports MGMT to exclusively sell corporate sponsorships, expand the market presence of UCA Athletics and provide additional staffing.


The market presence portion of the agreement provides for the building of an enhanced radio or television network and two seasonal marketing associates to enrich market presence in the Conway-to-Little Rock corridor.

Does it help with school presence, funding etc?

Looks like an SFA grad will be handling all the UCA property. xlolx

Maybe the Rev can get a job up here and work his magic beer bottle math and UCA can go FBS in two years. xlolx

Actually if I ran the show at UCA, you'd have been in the playoffs every year since you came up.

I'm kind of a success story :D

This is a pretty new company but it sounds like a great idea. I wonder if Sam Houston has looked into companies like this? We tend to rely too heavily on our AD.

It helps with national accounts. They can sell multiple schools they represent to the big accounts.

Im not one of the disgruntled and I dont want him gone, but I do know who you are referencing.

It appears the Southland is very familiar with the guy that runs PEAK.

Ryan Holloway

I have been working in college athletics for eight football seasons with stops at Texas State (Marketing Assistant), Northwestern State (Assistant AD – Marketing), Rice (Assistant AD – Marketing and Tickets Sales) and KP Sports (General Manager and Regional Sales Director overseeing McNeese State and Nicholls State). It has been a hell of an experience and I have learned a ton.

Nice one......but I disagree with your comment again. Im not an AD lover, his focus is much larger than the football program only.
