Americans Say Winning Isn't Everything, over the feature wire this summer. We've had more than 168,000,000 online views as a result as well as placements in Reuters and Forbes. We've also lined up interviews with Coach LaVell Edwards and other members of the Blue Ribbon Panel.

To date, the release has been picked up on 199 media outlets including The Sports Network, Reuters, MarketWatch, Entrepreneur, local television outlets and more than 40 business journals.
