We had an amazing day on campus Thursday, and I will detail some nuanced takeaways in a few days...27 speakers, just under 600 attendees, nine hours of amazing content on everything from the NHL to Amazon, the NCAA, sports fashion and pop culture, the business of tennis and the disruptive growth of golf, sports finance …
