Research:

As an extension of my past activities as a sportswriter and sports business columnist, I now research, publish, and present on the activities and practices of many sport communication and sport organization personnel, specifically those associated with the print media (i.e., newspaper editors, reporters) and those affiliated with intercollegiate and interscholastic sports (i.e., athletic directors, student-athletes). My primary areas of scholarly interest are sport communication and sport management, with my research agenda focused on hegemony theory and hegemonic practices (how dominant groups secure and maintain power) within the institution of sport.

Examining the professional activities and output of sport communication personnel (i.e., the reporters on the left) is one area of my research focus.
