I will never forget 2003, I was 23 years old selling sponsorships for SU as a rookie, Melo walks by me down by the Dome court before his first exhibition game…on his cell telling someone he is starting that night, the rest is history, and now seeing this…WOW!
I am so happy for
@JG3_____
. Enjoy every second of the Sweet 16. One of the best student-athletes I have ever had in class, a great basketball player and an even better person.
🍊MUST WATCH 🏀 So proud of
@CuseWBB
player Dominique Camp. An injury has her out for the season. She reached out, I want my team to know I am here for them as I rehab, so we brainstormed.
@ISlideUSA
stepped up & her NIL deal gifted everyone a pair of custom slides. This is NIL!
My heart is broken, my father Peter Meluni unexpectedly passed away this morning, came from Italy at 12, I have never met anyone who worked harder. I am at peace knowing we sat together this week watching Landyn & Nick play baseball on the same team together. My hero forever!
Meet Olu, a
@SUSportMgmt
student of mine. All semester he balanced school work, team travel and training. This last month he would say if we win…then…well no more if, Monday night is what you deserve, proud to be your professor, as I told you, enjoy every second 🍊⚽️
@CuseMSOC
Very honored and humbled to have been named the 2022 Evan Weissman Memorial Faculty of the Year Award for Teaching Excellence at Syracuse University. This award truly is a representation of the amazing students and faculty I get to work with every day.
A “NEW” tradition begins in my office, less than 24 hours after winning a NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP for
@CuseMSOC
, my
@SUSportMgmt
students Olu & Stephen stop by to sign their CHAMPION photos on my wall, so proud of how these two represent themselves in the classroom & the field.
The parent manual does not include picking your son up from school and telling him a close dear friend has lost her life at 14 due to a cowardly act. Nick dedicated his hockey games this weekend to Ava, happy we got home for the vigil tonight.
#StrongforAva
I hope Orange Nation is ready, the countdown clock to get these will be going up soon, time to support everything Syracuse, who wants one, stay tuned for full details 🍊
@OrangeUnitedNIL
This makes me really happy, over 10 years ago I negotiated with Terrell’s a deal to make these Otto Orange Cheese Twists, kudos to a local brand continuing to support our Orange, especially our SA’s. Love this LG🍊
COOL: Terrell’s Potato Chips is partnering with Syracuse QB Kyle McCord on a unique new NIL deal...introducing his own Terrell’s Honey BBQ/ Sharp Cheddar Potato Chips. You will start seeing them in area Grocery and Convenience Stores:

Nothing better than driving to campus this morning and seeing two students (Buddy and Meg) who were in my Syracuse University Sport Management NIL course last semester on billboards maximizing their NIL. Go Orange 🍊

We have to do something, that is how our conversation began, we raised $2735 for Ava’s scholarship fund last night.

Camillus fundraiser “Smile for Ava” honors life of Ava Wood
47 years called today, a new streak begins, family over everything. 2024 Section 3 Class AA BASEBALL Champions. So proud of Nick and Landyn, years of hard work finally pays off. I know my dad and grandfather had a great seat for this one.
The last 10 days have been tough as a parent, spending many hours in the car the last two weekends for hockey leads to many discussions & thoughts. Nick had a vision to celebrate Ava. Please stop by Sunday to celebrate this incredible young soul we lost too soon.
#smileforava
25 years ago I was honored to play on the West Genesee Section 3 & NYS basketball state runner-up basketball team. So happy for the current

Family is the foundation upon which we build our lives. We have spent so much time on the ballfield and ice with both Rome and Camillus folks over the years. An epic game and win for West Genesee Hockey 2-1 in OT to win the Section 3 Hockey Championship tonight.
Marketing is not hard. An idea brainstormed from listening to a press conference helped drive revenue for our student-athletes, make it

next week Orange Nation 🍊
Tonight we celebrated Ava Wood, we raised $2735 towards her scholarship fund. So impressed with the
@CuseMSOC
&
@CuseWSOC
players who attended to support our event & talk to the kids. So many people helped make it happen, from our family to yours, Thank You.
#smileforava
You don’t have to have the same blood or name to be family. 17 years ago this kid entered my life. I could not be more prouder of his process, this is just the beginning, and it only gets better from here. If you give a boy a baseball……Let’s Go Albright Baseball 🦁
@morganblankk
Amazing stuff, would you be interested in Zooming with my Syracuse University Sport Marketing Management class to chat Athlete Brands, this thread is just perfect!
Thanks to
@novusclothingco
for allowing me to shadow their photo shoot with
@JG3_____
who just finished taking my
@SUSportMgmt
NIL course. New as a Syracuse licensee, their apparel is straight amazing, along with their NIL merchandise for Joe. Gear drops next week, stay tuned. 🍊
Camillus Born. Thank you to everyone for congratulating the boys. If you take a little drive through the village, you will see some familiar faces.
#notdoneyet
Thank you to the Town of Camillus for allowing our family to honor my dad and grandfather with this bench. It will sit at the bottom field at Shove Park, appropriately noted: Angels in the Outfield. Wish these 2 were around right now to watch the boys play.
I am not sure who did this but I certainly need to say Thank You, this was placed at Carrier Park in the walkway, this is certainly not about me, I would rather it say Camillus Wildcats, our program has grown because of the kids, I just try to guide them along. Camillus Born!
Athlete Marketability. My
@SUSportMgmt
NIL Class just keeps generating amazing work. Each semester students are responsible for tracking athletes twice during the semester and then creating an Athlete Pitch Card for that athlete. You have one proud Professor today!
🚨My
@SUSportMgmt
Sport Sponsorship & Promotion class has partenered with Oswaldo Cabrera of the
@Yankees
to help build his brand & create his marketing deck this semester. Thank you to
@BrandonSteiner
for making this happen. Oswaldo and Brandon joined class today, amazing chat.
Only school in the country using
@sponsor_united
in an NIL class! My
@SUSportMgmt
class trained with Rajiv this morning, this is a game-changer, trust me!🍊
When your 13 year old bolts to the field to celebrate, thanks to one of our
@SUSportMgmt
graduates and student of mine Anthony Queeley for being so great with the boys, bowl bound 🏈🍊
In 1999 I played here as member of the Ithaca Lakers of the NYCBL, today, 20 years later I get to share the day with Nick. I had one goal that day, get a hit on historic Doubleday Field, which I did, today I watched him get one as well, very cool!
One year ago my dad suddenly left us. Soon, you will see this bench at Shove Park honoring him and my grandfather, it will sit beyond the LF fence on the bottom field next to the batting cage. Feel free to say hello, he always loved a good baseball chat, especially about bunting.
There are 3 ways for you to support Syracuse Student-Athletes 🍊
1. Your business can partner with athletes & teams.
2. You as a fan can buy a membership with exclusive experiences starting at $10.99 a month.

I am so proud of

Grateful for the opportunity to have spent the last few days in Atlanta at the

Simply the best, thanks to
@NILPete
for joining my
@SUSportMgmt
NIL course yesterday afternoon. Just a great dialogue with my students on NIL alignment for athletic departments, collectives and what comes next!
Meg was the only female student-athlete in my NIL class this past fall, 1 of my best students. She embraced NIL & navigated the landscape, I may be more excited about this than her!

As
@SUSportMgmt
students and myself re-charge during spring break, I have had a chance to reflect on what I am doing in the classroom surrounding NIL, so many more cool things to come, here is a little snapshot I put together as we look to finish the semester strong.
Big 🏈 game this Friday, support our SA’s. Northeast Tough shirts in Orange are only available locally at

2020 Fruitland Maryland 11U Champions over the Delmarva Aces. So proud of all these kids from Camillus, Whitesboro, Liverpool and Corning. Went 7-1 for the tournament. So proud of Nick, hit .813 for the tourney with 13 hits (5 doubles) in 8 games.
Proud dad, Nick has been selected to represent the Utica Jr. Comets in the 2022 Quebec International Pee Wee Tournament February 9-20 in Quebec City. He will have the opportunity to play the best in the world & play in the Videotron Centre in front of over 10,000 fans!

If I decide to write a book this will be my favorite chapter, brothers who play a beautiful game drastically different. A process that was trusted, naysayers along the way, but you will always be remembered as being champions who broke a 47 year drought. A season to remember ⚾️
