Mike Broeker, Marquette University’s vice president and director of athletics, has been appointed to the NCAA’s Men’s Basketball Oversight Committee, succeeding Dan Leibovitz.
A Strategic Appointment for the BIG EAST
The committee, which guides the development of men’s basketball and advises on championship structures, will now include a representative from the BIG EAST Conference, which holds three of the committee’s votes alongside other autonomy conferences.
Broeker’s elevation reflects his longstanding influence in collegiate athletics, where he has overseen major initiatives and strategic partnerships for Marquette’s basketball program.
During his tenure, Broeker played a pivotal role in hiring the program’s most recent four head coaches, created a university‑specific framework for name, image and likeness opportunities, and negotiated the lease that secured men’s basketball games at the Fiserv Forum.
Before joining Marquette in January 2025, he honed his expertise in the NBA’s basketball communications group, further broadening his perspective on the sport’s governance and fan engagement.
His appointment underscores the conference’s commitment to shaping the future of the game at the national level.
