EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Jason Stahl is the Executive Director and founder of the College Football Players Association (CFBPA). Jason is a former faculty member in the Department of Organizational Leadership, Policy and Development at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. At Minnesota, he also directed one of the largest programs for first-year student experience in the nation. It was through these twin roles that Jason met and educated hundreds of college athletes over a ten-year career. In these roles, Jason took a particular interest in the lives of the 60 or so football players who he came to know in the classroom. Seen by the public as “big men on campus” Jason came instead to see the more complicated reality of their lives as “student-athletes.”
