Absolutely packed house at Chapel today for our very own Coach Ryder. His message was simple, but powerful: CHOOSE CONFIDENCE. Proud to have leaders on our campus who are willing to pour into our students beyond the weight room, field, court, or classroom. Ryder challenged our students to believe in who they are, trust the work they’ve put in, and have the courage to step forward with confidence. This is what makes UJ special. Leadership. Relationships. Impact. Great job, @RyderWeischedel. I am grateful to have been your teammate and colleague for all these years! 👊 #ChooseConfidence #JimmiePride #PeopleFirstJimmiesAlways A Bull is just a Bull.

🚨 JIMMIE ATHLETICS FALL FUNDRAISER 🚨 Today is an opportunity to directly impact the experience of our Jimmie student-athletes. And this year, there’s an added reason to give. We are incredibly grateful to partner with our local Knights of Columbus, who have stepped up to MATCH what we raise! That means your support can go twice as far for Jimmie Athletics. Whether it’s $10, $25, $100 or more — every gift matters. When Jimmie Nation comes together, we can make a BIG impact. Our student-athletes represent UJ in the classroom, in competition, and throughout our community. Today is our chance to invest back into them. PEOPLE FIRST. JIMMIES ALWAYS. Join me and support Jimmie Athletics today! 🔗 ets.rocks/4cOd8nd #JimmiePride #PeopleFirstJimmiesAlways

LEADERTOWN 🏠 Leadership isn’t about the title you have. It’s about what people can count on you to bring every single day. Your attitude. Your effort. Your energy. Your response when things don’t go your way. Anybody can lead when things are easy. Leadership shows up when the day gets hard, the plan changes, or nobody is watching. Make connections! Lead with INTEGRITY! That’s how we build better leaders. That’s LEADERTOWN. #Leadertown #JimmiePride #PeopleFirstJimmiesAlways

This is what being a Jimmie is all about. Congratulations to Arthur Hebert, who was recognized with the Knight Award at Opening Convocation! Arthur embodies so much of what we want Jimmie Athletics to represent. He’s a great teammate, a leader, and someone who makes the people around him better. The impact he makes goes far beyond the football field. Awards like this are special because they recognize character, service, leadership, and the way you treat people. Proud to have Arthur representing Jimmie Athletics and the University of Jamestown. People First. Jimmies Always. #JimmiePride #PeopleFirstJimmiesAlways

What a phenomenal resource for our Jimmies! We are incredibly fortunate to have nationally renowned sports dietitian @amy_goodson_rd on campus today working directly with our coaches and student-athletes. Amy is sharing practical tools on fueling, training, competition, and recovery—information our athletes can put to work immediately. This is what investing in the student-athlete experience looks like. Giving our Jimmies access to experts who can help them perform, recover, and take care of themselves at the highest level.

Casual will get you beat!

Discipline isn't punishment. It's choosing what matters most over what feels good right now. It's showing up early. Doing the extra rep. Keeping your word. Being prepared. Holding the standard when nobody is watching. Motivation comes and goes. Discipline is what separates good from great. Do the little things right. Every single day. #Discipline #Leadership #DoHardThings #PeopleFirstJimmiesAlways

Please welcome Jimmie alum Ben Walker as the new head coach for @uj_jimmiesgolf! jimmiepride.com/news/2026/7/…

The NSIC preseason poll has been released, with Cole Hentges and Trayten Johnson being two of many players the Jimmies will count on in 2026. jimmiepride.com/news/2026/8/…

The @UJVolleyball team looks for success in its second season in the NSIC jimmiepride.com/news/2026/8/…

Move-in Day hits a little differently this year. For the first time in a long time, I'm watching from a different lens. Instead of welcoming players as their head coach, I get the privilege of welcoming every student-athlete to the Jimmie family as Athletic Director. The mission hasn't changed. It's still about people. It's still about relationships. And it's still about helping young people become the best version of themselves. Welcome home, Jimmies. Let's make it a great year. #PeopleFirstJimmiesAlways #GoJimmies

🏆 2026-27 Jimmie Athletics is officially underway!

We're excited for what's ahead and committed to putting People First. Jimmies Always. Here's to a year of growth, accountability, championships, and creating an incredible experience for our student-athletes. Let's get to work. 🟠⚫️ #JimmiePride #PeopleFirstJimmiesAlways
