NASHVILLE, TN — The ownership group behind On3, led by Shannon Terry, has reached an agreement to acquire Rivals—the original authority in recruiting, high school sports, and fan communities—from Yahoo Sports.

On3 and Rivals will create a network that will serve millions of fans and student-athletes nationwide, offering unparalleled coverage of college and high school sports, recruiting, and the rapidly evolving NIL landscape. On3 and Rivals subscribers will gain access to premium content across both platforms—dramatically increasing the value of each subscription and elevating the fan experience.

As part of the transaction, Yahoo Sports will take an ownership stake in the On3 parent company. Yahoo Sports will have a seat on the On3 parent company board and leverage its unique scale to help On3 and Rivals grow their content and subscription businesses.

The deal is expected to close by the end of the second quarter of 2025.

“Rivals is an icon in college sports and recruiting media,” said Shannon Terry, CEO of On3 and original co-founder of Rivals. “We’re excited to build on the momentum behind Rivals, which has a longstanding legacy as the most recognized brand and author of the recruiting industry. We look forward to taking Rivals to new heights with significant new investment focused on recruiting, high school sports, and passionate college fan communities.”

“We’re thrilled to be working with the Yahoo Sports team again,” added Terry. “From the start, it was clear both parties saw tremendous value in a partnership. Yahoo Sports has world-class distribution, a strong editorial platform, and an expansive content network that will play an integral role in the continued growth of On3 and Rivals.

Sparta se odmítla vzdálit Slavii, Priske byl sprostý: Jsme frustrovaní

Sparta proti předposlednímu týmu nejvyšší soutěže překvapivě ztratila a odmítla se v dostizích o ligový titul vzdálit konkurentům ze Slavie, kteří o den dříve remizovali 0:0 se Zlínem.Trenére, štve výsledek o to víc, že jste nevyužili zaváhání Slavie?To na náladě nic nemění. Pořád se cítím na ho… Podobně na tom jsou všichni v kabině. Ztratili jsme body a nemění na tom nic ani výsledek Slavie. Ta má vlastní problémy, které si řeší. A my také. Neohlížíme se na to.Proč jste na Slovácku ztratili? Při utkání jste se zdál dost nazlobený.Myslím, že to bylo očividné. Myslím, že jsme postrádali kvalitu, jakou jsme očekávali. Nevytvořili jsme si šance, neměli jsme moc velké xG, nebylo tam dostatek střel. V naší hře bylo také mnoho technických chyb. Samozřejmě můžete ztratit body, když čelíte soupeři jako dnes, který bojuje o život, je na spodku tabulky, dá do toho všechno a chodí do každého souboje důrazně. Jenže my […]
