Every fall you argue about the same things. Why your coach got fired. Where the money actually goes. Who really runs the sport now. Mike Chaudron has the answers, and he wrote them down.
Mike spent four decades in executive leadership and private equity before turning that lens on college athletics. His book, Agent Confidential: An Insider’s Guide to the Business of College Football, breaks down NIL, coaching buyouts, conference realignment, media rights, and the private equity money now buying its way into the game. He is a regular on WJHL, Big 12 Today, and WJOX. And he lives right up the road.
On Friday, July 31, he is coming to The Hill. Join us upstairs at Tennessee Hills Distillery for one night before the season starts. A curated bourbon flight, a fast, boardroom level briefing on what is really happening to the sport, an open Q&A where nothing is off limits, and a personalized book signing.
Fifty seats. That is the whole room.
Your ticket includes:
A signed copy of Agent Confidential, yours to take homeA curated four pour Tennessee Hills bourbon flight, or a signature welcome cocktailMike’s live 30 minute briefing: NIL, the money, the buyouts, the playoff fightOpen Q&A and a personalized book signingFirst access to our fall game day series before anyone else hears about it
The night:
6:00 PM, doors, welcome pour, and your flight is waiting at your seat. 6:30 PM, Mike pulls back the curtain. 7:00 PM, you ask the questions. 7:20 PM, signing, second pours, and the kind of conversation that runs long.
Come hungry. The kitchen is open. Come curious. Leave knowing more than the loudest guy in your group chat.
