Bruce Rasmussen joined Nick Bahe
Creighton's McCormick Endowed Director of Athletics Bruce Rasmussen caught up with FS1's Nick Bahe in Episode 3 of "The Offseason".
Rasmussen is wrapping up his 26th year as McCormick Endowed Athletic Director, and 40th overall at Creighton University, in 2019-20. During Rasmussen's tenure, Creighton has risen to prominence with its success on and off the field, impressive facilities and record-breaking fundraising efforts. Rasmussen also helped lead the charge for one of the biggest moves in school history when the school accepted an invitation into the BIG EAST Conference in March of 2013. Rasmussen's efforts continue to be recognized on a national level. In June of 2019, he became Division I's first four-time recipient of the Under Armour Athletic Director of the Year Award, an honor he also received in 2004, 2010 and 2015. Rasmussen was also honored by the Division I-AAA Athletic Directors Association with the 2019 Gary Cunningham Lifetime Achievement Award at the annual NACDA Convention. In 2018, Rasmussen wrapped up a five-year term on the highly-esteemed NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Selection Committee, serving as chairman in his final year.
A Creighton student-athlete from 2005-08, Bahe spent nearly a decade doing radio on 1620 The Zone (KOZN, 1620 AM) and remains an analyst for Creighton men's basketball to this day. The Lincoln native also broadcasts games for FS1, and hosts the Nick Bahe podcast.
