Testimonials

“The CAA is very pleased to be able to extend its partnership with CSMG. Over the past six years, CSMG was instrumental in helping the CAA secure several important media rights agreements including our revolutionary agreement with FloSports.”
Joe D’Antonio
Commissioner
Colonial Athletic Association

“CSMG’s valuation process has allowed us to better understand our conference, what drives value in the modern collegiate athletics ecosystem, and helped to provide a strategic approach to better engage brands and sponsors, locally, regionally, and nationally. The Horizon League recently expanded its relationship with CSMG for assistance with national sponsorship sales as we continue to grow.”
Julie Roe Lach
Commissioner
Horizon League

“CSMG has proven to be a thought leader with respect to the rapidly emerging media ecosystem. Most important, CSMG was able to deliver to the SIAC a partnership with ESPN, which has provided the conference with both a meaningful media rights fee and exposure for the conference as well as its member schools.”
Gregory Moore
