Bill Rasmussen, the founder of ESPN, has launched CollegeFanz.com, an
interactive online experience featuring sports content and information
for collegiate fans, their friends and alumni.
College fans will find countless exclusive features and innovations
throughout the site. The Registrar, FanzRoom, FanzFone, Sports Talk,
Campus Store and Sports Venues combine with photo and video galleries
to create this unique online environment. CollegeFanz.com welcomes each
visitor to a virtual campus bustling with seasonal collegiate
activities. As the college year progresses, fanz will experience an
ever changing campus featuring seasonal sports and activities from
countless campuses.
“In 1979, satellite technology created an opportunity for ESPN to
deliver sports around the clock that created legions of sports fans,”
said Rasmussen, Founder and CEO of CollegeFanz.com. “Twenty-eight years
later, online technology presents the opportunity to deliver yet
another layer of sports information and entertainment to millions of
passionate fans looking for more scores, more news, more videos and
more photos from their favorite college or university.”
Extensive scores and college sports information permeate the
site. Social networking components focused on the college sports fan
allow users to find other fanz online, post and share photos and
videos, create blogs and groups, and invite other fanz to online forums
and talk shows.
“CollegeFanz.com is laser focused on the fan experience. Enhancing and
fulfilling this dynamic experience for students and alumni is our
mission,” concluded Rasmussen.
Major partners in College Fanz are The Phoenix Group, Linqware, PA-SportsTicker and The Musser Group.
