Brandon Copeland’s Next Venture, Athletes.org

Legend client, Brandon Copeland wrapped up a 10 year NFL career and hasn’t wasted much time stepping into his next chapter! Copeland is excited to channel his energy into Athletes.org, a platform he co-founded with Jim Cavale that’s dedicated to empowering athletes by providing them with essential tools to navigate their professional careers effectively. “By providing knowledge, access, and protection, on demand, for free to athletes via the Athletes.org platform – we will support college personally and professionally,” Copeland said. “Just as I gave my all to the sport I love, I am determined to bring the same passion and dedication to Athletes.org, as we represent the interest of athletes.”

Athletes.org (AO), is a 501c non-profit organization designed to give a voice to speak into the future of college athletics. All athletes who sign up for their free AO membership will have an exclusive login to their AO member app. AO member athletes will receive on-demand support through a series of knowledge, access, and protection app features, providing them with the ability to ask any question to the app, interact with a pro bono expert, and view a registry of AO verified agents and collectives. AO member athletes will gain a voice through chapters based on their sport and conference, fostering collaboration and feedback for AO to advocate for its member athletes regarding new college athletics investments under consideration (referenced in the NCAA’s Transformation Committee report).

“College and amateur athletics are at a pivotal moment in history,” said Athletes.org Founder and Chairman, Jim Cavale. “It’s important that all college athletes have the support to make the best decisions for their respective futures. It’s also vital that the perspective of college athletes is included in the decisions that will shape the future of our industry. We are creating the first-of-its-kind organization for all college athletes to have the space to go and think through potential life-altering decisions for both themselves and their peers. We are striving to impact college athletes so they can impact the world.”

“As a former college and professional athlete, there were so many moments where I wished I had an organization to go to for advice,” said Athletes.org Co-Founder and CEO, Brandon Copeland. “What we are building with AO, you will have a locker room for life. We want to help as many college athletes as possible and we’re excited to get started.”

AO is also finalizing its Board of Directors, consisting of experts in business and collegiate athletics to provide insight and guidance for AO to become the best organization for its members. The Board includes Amy Huchthausen (current Knight Commission board member, former NCAA D1 Commissioner), Reggie Love (Senior Advisor at Apollo Global Management), and Mit Winter (Kennyhertz Perry), among others to be announced at a later date.
