"Storrs Central collects revenue and contributions from subscribers for the benefit of UConn athletes. We also act on behalf of athletes as a marketing agency. We have staff dedicated to getting brand deals/sponsorships for our athletes. Our expenses include website maintenance, salaries (3 full-time) and payments to journalists/content creators. We have been in business for approximately 18 months and during that time 86% of our revenue has gone either directly to athletes or to the University. Proceeds going to the University are tagged for the benefit of specific sports. We are a direct partner of the University and work very closely w the Athletic Dept and the Coaches. They have helped craft our mission, staff our team and are fully supportive of our efforts. Direct quote from David Benedict: "[I]With the recent developments surrounding the House v. NCAA settlement, we are on the cusp of a new era in college athletics, where schools will be able to share athletic department revenues with student-athletes. As this transformative revenue-sharing model evolves, Storrs Central will become an even more crucial platform for supporting our UConn athletes."[/I] [/QUOTE]
