Maryland Athletics Names New Executive Director of One Maryland; Extends Partnership with Blueprint Sports
May 5, 2025
COLLEGE PARK, MD – Maryland Athletics and Blueprint Sports have named Mandy Allendorfer the new executive director of One Maryland, the official NIL (name, image, and likeness) entity supporting Terp student-athletes. Allendorfer will lead the Terps’ efforts in the new era of NIL partnerships, events, and media opportunities for all Maryland student-athletes across 20 sports. The parties also announced a multi-year partnership extension that establishes Blueprint Sports as the internal NIL marketing agency for Maryland Athletics, helping solidify the Terps’ position as a leader in the hyper-competitive NIL marketing and sponsorship space.
Allendorfer assumes the new role after serving as the Director of Collegiate Partnerships for Athletes First, an NFL agency representing elite players, coaches, personnel and broadcasters, where she represented, among others, former Terp quarterback Taulia Tagovailoa. Prior to that, Allendorfer worked for 18 years for super-agent Scott Boras at the Boras Corporation as the Director of Strategic Marketing and Collegiate Partnerships and other roles. Allendorfer is herself a former Terp student-athlete, competing in softball from 2000-03, with a career batting average of .429 and a perfect 1.000 fielding percentage.
“It is the professional and personal honor of a lifetime to return to Maryland in this new role, just as the University deepens its partnership with Blueprint Sports,” said Allendorfer. “As a former Terp student-athlete, this opportunity is deeply personal. I'm passionate about creating pathways for our athletes to thrive on the field, in the classroom, and now in building their personal brands. Together, we'll ensure Maryland is at the forefront of NIL innovation and athlete empowerment.”
“We are building a best-in-class NIL ecosystem here at Maryland,” said Brian Ullmann, Deputy Athletics Director. “We are excited to extend our partnership with Blueprint and are thrilled to bring Mandy back into the Maryland family. Her hire is a home run.”
“We are proud to extend our partnership with Maryland Athletics and its outstanding leadership team,” said Rob Sine, CEO of Blueprint Sports. “From the start, Maryland has demonstrated such forward-thinking leadership in the NIL space, and we’re excited to continue that momentum with Mandy at the helm. Maryland exemplifies the kind of creative, data-driven athletic department we strive to support as we shape the future of collegiate athletics through innovative NIL data and revenue solutions.”
Since 2023, One Maryland has acted as the athletic department’s primary collective, offering NIL opportunities for the more than 500 student-athletes who proudly wear red, white, black, and gold. One Maryland is managed by Blueprint Sports, the industry-leading agency for in-house Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) technology and services, supporting more than 65 athletic departments nationwide.
