Georgia President Jere Morehead declined to comment directly on the SEC’s ongoing tension with LSU following a lengthy videoconference of league CEOs, citing two pending lawsuits. However, here’s what Morehead did have to say: "I remain a strong advocate of the Southeastern Conference creating its own rules and governing itself. I'm going to be a strong supporter of Commissioner [Greg] Sankey as he works to develop that model. … There's a lot of things happening now, but I do believe that the SEC setting rules and the league members following those rules is a path forward that we all should support."

When you’re feeding athletes and staff, reliability matters. Food needs to arrive on time, at the right location, and exactly as ordered to keep athletes fueled and schedules running smoothly.

ezCater helps teams stay on top of meal logistics by centralizing ordering in one place, making it easy to schedule deliveries in advance, enter detailed delivery information, and get confirmation that orders are on track. That means less time spent calling restaurants, checking on orders, and managing meal details manually. 

For Northeastern University, that reliability helps Lauren Tebsherany, Director of Basketball Operations, manage more than 20 meals each month for 14 basketball players and 11 staff members during the season.

With ezCater, she can place an order with confidence, knowing the food will arrive when and where the team needs it.

“I like that I can place an order on ezCater and know that it’s going to arrive when it says it will. And I’m not going to have to worry about it in the process.”
– Lauren Tebsherany, Director of Basketball Operations, Northeastern University
