College coaching representation

Representation for the coaches who build programs.

Mounts Sports & Entertainment represents college football and basketball coaches, personnel staff, and broadcast talent. We handle the contract, the next move, and the moments in a season when a career gets decided, so our clients can stay focused on the work.

Who we represent

Four groups, one standard of attention.

Football

Coordinators and assistants

Coordinators, position coaches, and special teams staff at the FBS and FCS levels, including coaches preparing for their first head job.

Basketball

Head coaches and staff

Head coaches and assistants looking to protect what they have built and position themselves for the next opportunity.

Personnel

Personnel and scouting staff

Directors of player personnel, scouting, and recruiting, represented with the same rigor we bring to on-field staff.

Broadcast

On-air talent

Analysts and evaluators working in the booth, in studio, and across draft coverage.

What we negotiate

Every clause that shapes a career.

Salary is one line in a coaching contract. The rest of the document decides what happens when the staff changes, the season turns, or a better job opens up.

Representation scopeCoaching agreement
§ 1

Compensation

Base salary, supplemental pay, and performance incentives, benchmarked and negotiated at signing and at every renewal.

§ 2

Title and duties

When responsibilities grow in the middle of a season, the title and pay should grow with them. We secure acting and interim designations that reflect the work being done.

§ 3

Protection

Buyout and termination terms, guaranteed money, and language that protects a coach's position if a staff change happens around them.

§ 4

Outside income and media

Carve-outs for broadcast, camps, speaking, and other outside work, so opportunities beyond the program are preserved in writing.

§ 5

The next job

Career planning, search positioning, and relationships with the decision-makers who hire, well before an opening is announced.

How we work

Built around the coach, on the coach's timeline.

Fee structure

No monthly retainer

We are compensated when a contract is signed or improved, which keeps our interests aligned with yours.

Access

Senior attention

Clients work directly with Taylor Mounts, from the first call through every negotiation.

Discretion

Confidential by default

Coaching careers move quietly. Conversations with MSE stay between us until you decide otherwise.

Personnel representation

The front office career starts in the personnel department.

Personnel directors, scouts, and recruiting staff carry real responsibility inside a program, and their careers deserve the same representation a coordinator receives. MSE negotiates their contracts and helps them plan for the general manager and front office roles that follow.
