Office Hours with SIU System President Dan Mahony: Changing College Athletics & Why It Matters

siusystem.edu

On this edition of Office Hours with SIU System President Dan Mahony , we explore the change that is underway in college athletics and why it matters.

College athletics is undergoing one of the most dramatic transformations in its history, from athlete compensation to transfer rules and the impacts of the House v. NCAA settlement.

In this episode, SIU System President Dan Mahony, a longtime sport management professor, sits down with athletic directors Tim Leonard (SIU Carbondale), Andrew Gavin (SIU Edwardsville), and Dr. Ken Halpin (Purdue University) to discuss how
these changes are reshaping the student-athlete experience, university operations, and the future of college sports.

Dr. Dan Mahony is the 10th president of the Southern Illinois University System. He hosts the Office Hours podcast.
