Kenneth Shropshire | CEO Global Sports Institute | “More Ownership” S2 EP 13

Kenneth L. Shropshire is an African-American author, attorney, consultant, educator, CEO of the Global Sport Institute and ADIDAS Distinguished Professor of Global Sport at Arizona State University (ASU). On this episode we speak with Kenneth Hall of Fame alumni of Dorsey High school in Southern California.
Education is a foundation for Ken playing Center and as well as Linebacker at Stanford where his Coach helped him understand the important in a way only a football coach can do! So much historical context and early experience with racial climate, no black coaches on the Stanford football team & they just completed the Cardinals name change letting go of the Indiana’s affiliation.
Ken was able to use his economic and lawyer background to go on and help so many athletes. One in particular Ray Anderson, former teammate now AD of ASU. After helping Ray negotiated his deal, Ken was presented with an offer they wouldn’t let him refuse.
We also discuss The Future of Africans Americans in MLB and women in college basketball. Talked about the great work the Adidas Global Sports Institute is doing. Tap into this one!
