@1QLeadership Question: How much does an athletics director think about succession planning? Alex Ricker-Gilbert, Senior Vice President and Athletics Director at Jacksonville University, discusses hiring coaches and succession planning with Lamarr Pottinger, Director of Leadership Development with NCAA. Ricker-Gilbert has a process of identifying assistant coaches that could potentially be head coaches in the future and engaging with them regularly. He also talks about being aggressive with head coaches who show early signs of success, such as extending one Jacksonville head coach to a 10-year contract after his first year. "Will this person care more about our student-athletes as people than as athletes?" "Tell us why you want to be at our institution" "If you do a good job hiring, the rest of the leader's job is much easier." Ricker-Gilbert believes upward mobility at Jacksonville is the department's competitive advantage. - One Question Leadership Podcast - Tai M. Brown    

Nate Boyer, the starting long snapper at the University of Texas, a Green Beret Bronze Star recipient and a First-Team Academic All-Big 12 Selection with a 3.84 GPA, was selected as the 2013 NFF Legacy Award Recipient.Nate Boyer graduated high school unsure about his path in life. He enrolled in community college, and he tried acting in Los Angeles while caring for autistic children to pay the rent. Looking for a challenge and to make a difference, he made his way to the Darfur region of Sudan to help in the refugee camps. The experience, coupled with his memories of 9/11, inspired him to enlist in the U.S. Army as a Special Forces candidate, and he became one of 11 from his class of 150 to graduate with a Green Beret. He has served in Iraq and Afghanistan, earning a Bronze Star for heroism in combat.Pausing from his military service, Boyer sought his next challenge, trying to walk-on to the Texas football team despite never having played on an organized team because his high school did not sponsor the sport. His tenacity and athletic prowess netted him a spot on the team as a defensive back, but he lacked the skills to contribute during live games. He analyzed the roster, and he saw a potential opening at long snapper. He mastered the position, earning a starting job the past two seasons. Former Texas head coach Mack Brown calls his story one of the most inspirational and unique he has ever seen.Brown also credits Boyer's leadership and life experiences for helping the Longhorns to understand the parallel between football and the military with an emphasis on the importance of the guy on the left and on the right to the success of the unit. His contributions have earned him the honor of carrying the flag and leading the Longhorns out of the tunnel and onto the field each Saturday. During his summers, Boyer has continued his military service, including tours of duty in Eastern Europe and Greece in 2011 and 2012 as a member of a Special Forces unit of the Texas National Guard. This past summer, he completed an assignment with the elite Special Operations Joint Task Force in Afghanistan, serving with NATO Forces from May 1-July 31. He returned to Austin just in time to start fall practice with the Longhorns on Aug. 4.A native of Dublin, Calif., Boyer graduated from Texas in May, earning a bachelor's degree in Physical Culture and Sports Management with a cumulative GPA of 3.84. He is currently working on a post-graduate degree in advertising. In 2012-13, he was named First-Team Academic All-Big 12, as well as being a member of UT's Athletics Director's Honor Roll and the Big 12 Commissioner's Honor Roll.

Will Smith has officially apologized for slapping Chris Rock on the Oscars stage. People are still torn about whether or not it was real and whether or not it was justified.

All everyone wants to talk about after the Oscars is Will Smith and Chris Rock. It takes all attention away from the other horrendous things that happened at the awards show. Like playing Toto's “Africa” when two Black presenters came onstage. NASCAR is proud to report that there were no Confederate flags at their race in Austin this weekend. However, there were plenty of “Let's Go Brandon” flags to replace them.
