Curry's role aids Davidson, challenges smaller athletic programs
Stephen Curry has taken a new role as assistant general manager for basketball at Davidson College, his alma mater. He will help create a fund to attract talented players, enhancing Davidson's competitiveness in college sports. This development comes as smaller schools struggle to retain players due to changes in NCAA rules allowing immediate transfers and athletes to earn money from their name, image, and likeness. These changes have made it easier for larger programs to recruit top talent. As a result, underdog teams may find it increasingly difficult to achieve success in the NCAA tournament. The presence of Curry at Davidson highlights the challenges faced by smaller programs in the evolving landscape of college athletics.
