📰 Butler University Partners with Motion to Power Athletic Department Operations

Grant Leiendecker, Vice President and Director of Athletics at Butler, shared why the partnership made sense:

"From our very first conversation with Motion, it was clear they were different. There's something special about partnering with a company that's right here in Indiana, and that proximity has helped us build a genuine relationship from the start. They've been attentive, responsive, and genuinely invested in making this work for us every step of the way. We're excited about what this partnership means for our department and our student-athletes."

📰 Motion Welcomes Former D1 Athletic Director @ChristinaRoybal as Senior Advisor

Motion Sports is excited to welcome Christina Roybal as a Senior Advisor, bringing one of the most valuable perspectives in college athletics today to its growing team.

Roybal most recently served as Vice President and Director of Athletics at Northern Kentucky University, where she led the department through a period of strong growth across competitive success, academic achievement, and fan engagement.

As a Senior Advisor, Roybal will work closely with Motion’s leadership team on product direction, innovation, customer experience, and overall strategy. Her role will be a crucial component ensuring Motion builds solutions that truly align with how athletic departments operate.

“Having served as an AD, I understand the pressures departments are under right now,” Roybal said. “Under pressure both financially and operationally. That’s what stood out to me about Motion—their vision to help bring accessible solutions to these athletic departments. I’m excited to get to work and support what they’re building.”

It was great to have Anthony Leal and Nate Ebel on the IU Columbus campus today!

While they were presenting and teaching our players how to get NIL deals, one of our players actually received one!

Athletic department admins. Assistant coaches. Ops directors.

They don't get the headlines. They don't ask for recognition. But college sports couldn't run without them.

They're the real underdogs who hold everything together behind the scenes.

This is who we built for.

We're just getting started. Let's move.

Enjoyed hearing former Colts Gary Brackett and Tarik Glenn talk about the sports tech ecosystem in Indiana at the @sportstechhq event yesterday.

Love seeing athletes who are still invested in the communities they played in after they retire.

If you would have asked me pre season if I would have taken IU going 11-2 and playing in the CFP, I would have taken that 12 times out of 10. Still #NeverDaunted regardless.

Tickets secured. Lets go! #NeverDaunted
