When Donald Remy joins the NCAA this month as its new general counsel, he will be combining two of his great interests–complex legal issues and youth sports. With a background in coaching amateur basketball, a love of college football and more than 20 years’ experience in litigation, policy-making and internal investigations, Remy has found himself in the quintessential dream job.

Remy, currently a partner at Latham & Watkins in Washington, D.C., says the high-profile job befits the myriad interests and experiences his legal career has spanned, and he is particularly excited to move back to an in-house position.
