<p style="background:white"><span style="color:black">To our Athletic Director’s credit – he let them know that<span class="x_xcontentpasted0"> “we were only under a one year deal from 2021-22 season with a potential to renew after an update on the Access requirement
 from our TSS department.  Please send us an update of the Access requirement that we communicated to you last year, so we can determine if we can continue using this product via approval from our TSS department. ”</span></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span class="x_xcontentpasted0"><span style="color:black">Their reply was classic – “</span></span><span style="color:black">I see that both programs are able to access your Synergy Sports Accounts and are using them currently, so
 I assume the issue has been fixed.” Access issues – ugh!</span><b><span style="font-size:10.0pt; color:#424242"></span></b></p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Anyway - not sure what to do this year. Clearly nothing has changed And coaches want to use it yesterday of course and Synergy wants us to pay for it.</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">My ultimate question is probably better for the Accessible IT folks for each campus- what platform(s) are other colleges using for this work.   I often hear, “it’s what all the colleges in the division are using.”</p>
