With the advent of the Power 5 schools starting to separate, yet be beholden to the same rules as the smaller schools, it requires a lot of patience when working at Presbyterian College, which has one of the smallest budgets in Division I athletics. James Downer oversees sports supervision, as well as compliance and other details, and tries to build a relationship with each coach and student-athlete. Downer discusses how some of the issues regarding cost of attendance will affect Presbyterian College, as well as how they plan to continue to compete at the Division I level. With an eye toward becoming an athletic director of the future, Downer has to also prepare himself for the unknown realities that may be a key or core part of the NCAA in the years to come.
