We were so excited to have industry leader Brad Finn on to talk about sports field management. We dive into his personal journey into the industry and how so many industry professionals played a role in his success. We also had the opportunity to debrief on the recent SFMA conference and the experience. This is an episode you do not want to miss.

Chuck Heinz and Jamie Lent talk about The Texas Tech basketball win over University of Houston, the day the music died, shocking sports stories, and fans reaction to the Big 12 officials.

Wildcatters were "entrepreneurs" long before that word became a cliche for anyone willing to risk it all to start a business. So it should come as no surprise that UH is home to the top collegiate entrepreneurial program in America. In this episode, HBJ Editor-in-Chief Sean McCrory invites David Cook, Director of the Wolff Center for Entrepreneurship, to share why the program he leads is so successful.

Today I catch up with an old friend from Bodybuilding.com, Kevin Haynes, the Director of Football Equipment Operations at the University of Houston. Kevin brings a wealth of experience from his impressive career, having worked at powerhouse programs such as Florida State and San Diego State before his current role at Houston. Join us as we dive into the unique and behind-the-scenes world of equipment operations in college football. Kevin shares firsthand stories from his years in the industry, reflecting on some of the good times, memorable experiences, and even a few funny moments along the way. He discusses the impact certain players have had on him, including notable mentions like Jameis Winston during his time at Florida State. Get an insider's view of what it's like to be around elite athletes and how these moments shape the job and leave lasting memories. Ever wondered what it's like to work in different stadiums across the country? Kevin takes us through his favorite venues, including iconic places like Florida's stadium, Kansas City's field, Oklahoma's home turf, and more. These insights offer a glimpse into what makes these stadiums special from an operational perspective. One of the most fascinating parts of our conversation is exploring the differences between bigger and smaller college programs—how budgets affect operations and the way each school conducts business behind the scenes. Kevin's experience at a range of schools gives him a unique understanding of these differences, and he shares valuable insights into the challenges and perks of working at various levels of college football. Whether you're a college football fan, an aspiring sports professional, or simply curious about what goes on beyond the game, this episode is packed with interesting stories and takeaways.

In this episode of THE MENTORS RADIO, Host Dan Hesse talks with Renu Khator, Ph.D., Chancellor of the University of Houston system, as they discuss how teaching Gen Z is different from prior generations, and the unintended consequences that paying college athletes might have on University academic budgets and the future of “Olympic” sports on American college campuses. We'll also discuss the impact AI is having on higher education. In 2008, Renu Khator became the first female chancellor in the state of Texas and the first Indian immigrant to lead a comprehensive research university in the U.S. Under Renu's leadership, the University of Houston earned Tier One status for research from the Carnegie Foundation, and opened Houston's first medical school in more than 50 years. It's more than tripled the number of National Academy members on the faculty, and dramatically improved graduation rates. Dr. Khator has been named to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and has served on numerous boards, including the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, the NCAA, the American Council on Education, and the Association of American Colleges and Universities. Additionally, Renu has been an advisor to several Indian prime ministers.  She has been named Houstonian of the year, inducted into the Texas Women's Hall of Fame, received a Houston Business Journal Lifetime Achievement Award and, in 2014, Indian President Mukherjee presented her with the Samman Award, the highest distinction bestowed upon a non-resident Indian.  Born in India, she earned a master's degree and a Ph.D. in political science from Purdue.

Critically acclaimed musician, Samora Pinderhughes has emerged as one of the most conscientious performers of the moment. The multidisciplinary artist has collaborated with a plethora of musicians, including Herbie Hancock, Common, Robert Glasper, Jill Scott, Sara Bareilles, Daveed Diggs and Lalah Hathaway, just to name a few.Pinderhughes is a filmmaker, a composer and a pianist, and he's known for creating performance pieces that are extensions of the conversations of his community – from the political to the personal – that incorporate elements of theatre, poetry, even paintings and digital art. His work is also deeply rooted in social justice and the traditions of Black surrealists of the African Diaspora. For nearly a decade, the 32-year-old has been working on his signature concept known as, “The Healing Project,” which centers around testimonials of community members, whose lives have been shattered by senseless violence, incarceration, detention and extreme policing. The initiative has since expanded and evolved into an arts organization based in New York City that's been featured in short films, museum exhibitions and live concerts.Join us as I SEE U's Eddie Robinson chats in-studio with multidisciplinary artist, Samora Pinderhughes. The Julliard School graduate guides us through his spiritual process of integrating visuals, sound, and emotions to create a musical landscape that touches the heart and soul of its listeners. He's already performed his compositions at Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center as well as the historic El Dorado Ballroom in Houston's Third Ward, just blocks away from our I SEE U Studios.
