- Behind every game-day moment, there’s a team working off the field to make it possible.

In this episode of The 5th Quarter Podcast – On the Sideline Series, we sit down with Duvante Lane, Director of Development for the University of Colorado Buff Club.

We talk about:

• His pathway into college athletics and the different roles that shaped his career
• Why development and fundraising matter for student-athletes
• How NIL is changing the landscape of fundraising and career opportunities in sports
• The energy around Colorado Athletics heading into this season
• Leadership lessons and advice for anyone building a meaningful career
• And yes we discuss working with the man himself, Deion Sanders

Duvante’s story proves that sports are just the starting point—the real lessons are about persistence, growth, and creating impact.
