Randolph Brent, better known as Randy, serves as the Director of Digital Media & Marketing for the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC), starting in May 2023. Randy is responsible for creative video production, fan engagement content for in-venue elements, and social media outlets.
A Morgan State alum, Brent graduated from the university in May 2021 from Clarence M. Mitchell, Jr. School of Engineering with a Bachelors of Science in Transportation Systems. Brent is also a former student-athlete, as he played for the Morgan State football team as a defensive back for two seasons during his years in undergrad.
Shortly after his playing career, Brent joined the film crew for the Bears. That opportunity opened the door to become a digital media intern for the athletic department. Once Brent reached commencement, he was soon brought back to his alma mater to take lead as the first Director of Multimedia & Production for athletics at Morgan State.
He spent much of his tenure orchestrating and developing a blueprint for the department's first-ever digital media team. After
much recruiting, Brent had gained support from nearly 20 student content creators who served the athletic department across the spectrum of digital media and production.
During his time at Morgan, Brent worked with major corporations such as ESPN, NBA, NFL, TNT, and CBS to spread the brand of Morgan State athletics to a mass audience. This team had revived the social and digital media presence for the Morgan State Bears and are now known as MSU Creatives. They quickly caught attention of not only the athletic staff, student-athletes, and their fans, but of the university and with Brent’s leadership, they are recognized as an official entity of the school.
