At the 2026 CASE Conference for College and University Foundations in Seattle, Jason Penry joined Greg Willems, President and CEO of the Kansas State University Foundation, to debut a "new playbook" for navigating the seismic shifts in college sports. The session moved past the headlines of NIL and conference realignment to provide university foundations and advancement leaders with a clear, actionable framework for success.


In an era of unprecedented volatility, athletic departments and their foundations must evolve in lockstep to protect institutional interests and philanthropic growth. Jason and Greg focused on high-impact strategies that allow advancement teams to move from reactive troubleshooting to proactive leadership. By aligning foundation goals with the new realities of the collegiate landscape, institutions can turn industry disruption into a long-term competitive advantage for the entire campus community.
