After 6 years as the associate athletic director for external affairs at Nicholls State, Brandon Ruttley has left the college sports space for private industry. Ruttley talks about the intense coming to terms with his decision to leave athletics, with the door still cracked open to return upon the right opportunity, but is at peace either way. Ruttley shares what he believes the private sector can learn from college athletics organizations, and in turn, what private industry can help those on college campus sports achieve.
