Tune in as Shawn talks with Marcus Bowman, Deputy Athletic Director and CFO of Business Strategy at the University of Oklahoma. A former student-athlete, Bowman explains how he grew up in a competitive and sports-oriented family, but also one that instilled the value of working hard in school. This upbringing led to a full academic scholarship to Pitt and a spot on the basketball team, and, after graduating with a degree in finance, Bowman went on to serve as Senior Associate Athletics Director for Sport Administration at his alma mater. Now in Oklahoma, Bowman explains the path that led to his role at OU and gives advice for student-athletes looking to follow in his footsteps, including how to network, both personally and professionally, on the golf course.
