Colorado State Athletic Director John Weber joins RamNation for a wide-ranging conversation at one of the most consequential moments in CSU athletics history. With the Rams officially in the Pac-12, Weber discusses what the move means for CSU, the importance of having every football game on linear television, and why he believes Colorado State has the size, facilities, alumni base and resources of a power-conference program. He also dives into the remarkable growth in donor support, 12,000-plus football season tickets sold, CSU’s new Adidas partnership, major facility upgrades, plans to expand the Rams’ presence in Denver, revenue sharing and the future of the College Football Playoff. Weber also explains his confidence in Ram football head coach Jim Mora and lays out the three games CSU must win moving forward: the competitive game, the brand game, and the financial game. Listen to today’s episode to learn Weber’s vision for CSU athletics and why he believes the Rams are positioned for something much bigger.
