He was one of the group sales managers for the Lightning and Amalie Arena... he then went to Las Vegas on a contract to help get the Las Vegas Golden Knights ticket sales up. They picked him up for 2020. The guy is razor sharp, and is going to do some amazing promotions and campaigns with the athletic programs. I was super happy to hear he got the job. USF has always been a bit muted for advertising and promotions in the Bay area. His team is already implementing tons of new promotions and campaigns. Can't wait for 2020!! Excited !

I wish him Godspeed and he's going to need it. Selling USF football to Tampa Bay is tougher than selling hockey on the desert and on the beaches ....

Consumers will be willing to pay to watch a mediocre conference if the team is consistently dominating in all aspects. It doesn't get any better than a November or December night game at Ray J. Plus the fact its less than $100 for a family of 4 (maybe even less than $75), can't beat it. We just need some consistent Ws and the rest will follow.
