After a six-hour road trip, and four states later, 61 CPASS students and faculty converged on Indianapolis, Ind., for the Sport Management Worldwide Football Career Conference and NFL Scouting Combine in early March.
The students attended a daylong networking event with speakers from NFL Network and ESPN along with analysts, agents, team general managers, former NFL coaches and front office personnel.
The following day, students, who spanned every major in CPASS, spent Saturday at Lucas Oil Stadium for the NFL Scouting Combine.
“This is what it’s all about,” said Tanner Cain, a senior in sport management. “This is why I love this sport. I’ve worked my whole life to become an NFL general manager, and seeing all of this only solidified my passion.”
