Executive Search

Unlike many other search firms serving Division I universities, Collegiate Sports Associates utilizes industry experts to provide support during each search. CSA’s team of industry practitioners manage and direct each search, and their extensive experience in athletics administration has given them a profound understanding of the differences in culture that exist on campuses around the nation. 

Most importantly, Todd Turner’s lengthy tenure as a leader in Division I athletics has enabled him to develop long-lasting personal relationships with the men and women who shape the landscape of intercollegiate athletics today. These relationships are essential in identifying and selecting CSA’s Associates. Together, they also provide an intimate knowledge of and access to a widely diverse group of individuals with the ability to effectively fill positions of leadership in a University setting.

CSA was founded on the principle that the best advice and counsel comes from the practitioners who have spent their professional lifetimes in campus settings. We have the professional contacts in intercollegiate athletics and higher education to identify individuals or build teams of experts that can assist campus and conference leaders in analyzing and addressing specific challenges as well as taking advantage of new opportunities.

“When working with Collegiate Sports Associates you know you are always working with top quality professionals looking to create the needed partnership for a successful result. To be sure, I have seen that happen time, and time again, with Todd Turner and his team at CSA.
In Todd, you have an industry leader who has led and served the top brands and programs in college athletics. Therefore, who better than Todd and his team to trust in and learn from in this highly competitive space.”
