Join us on this episode of the Roll Jays podcast as we sit down with Mike Odom, Creighton University’s Deputy Athletic Director for External Operations. We dive deep into the massive $300 million project that is set to transform the Creighton campus and the Omaha area.
Mike explains the vision behind the Fly Together initiative, detailing how this investment will impact every student-athlete—from men’s basketball to softball and baseball—by providing first-class facilities, including a brand-new sport performance center.
In this episode, we discuss:
-The origins of the Fly Together campaign and the need for more weight room space.
-How Creighton aims to be the “gold standard” and the model program for the Big East.
-The transformation of the McDermott Center, Sokol Arena, and Schwab Baseball Park.
-Improving the student-athlete experience through better nutrition, mental health resources, and academic support.
-The collaborative effort involving the Board of Trustees and the Heider family.
