In this episode of the THSADA Director’s Cut, we sit down with Trev Alberts, Director of Athletics at Texas A&M University and former Butkus Award-winning linebacker.
From his time as an All-American player at Nebraska, to his years as a national broadcaster, to now leading one of the most visible programs in college sports, Alberts brings a full-circle perspective to the challenges facing coaches and athletic leaders today.
He opens up about the emotional toll of the current NIL climate, the cultural cost of constant instability, and how to hire and support coaches who are truly in it for the right reasons.
Whether you're leading at the high school level or managing the pressures of a large district or university, this conversation is a powerful reminder that integrity, clarity, and mission alignment still matter – especially in times of chaos.
Special thanks to our episode sponsor, PBK Architects, a proud partner of Texas school districts and a national leader in designing future-ready athletic and academic facilities.
