The Wright State Special Committee on Intercollegiate Athletics decided Tuesday to hear proposals from a trio of companies who have offered to help the university with its examination of university athletics.

Firms MRJ Advisors, College Sports Solutions and College Sports Associates will be invited to brief the committee, which was formed in March to examine the future and place of athletics at Wright State University.

The proposals will be heard in another week or two, possibly on a Saturday, committee members said.

“Then we’ll move forward,” university Trustee Doug Fecher said in a meeting Tuesday.

Marty Grunder, the trustee who chairs the committee, said he believes his fellow committee members are “clear on our path here.”

“Obviously, we all want to do this in the best possible way,” Grunder said.
