The UrbanEye Group, Inc. — Presents

Black Athlete Sports Network

A dream started twenty years ago by Mr. Roland Rogers is coming back to life — built to fuel the next generation of sports writers.

The Story
In Memoriam
Mr. Roland Rogers
Roland Rogers

Twenty years ago, Mr. Roland Rogers set out to build something the sports world didn't have — a network built for, by, and about Black athletes, giving their stories the platform and the respect they deserved.

Mr. Rogers has passed on, but his dream did not pass with him. His legacy now lives on as the foundation for the next generation of sports writers to come.

The Mission

Bringing the dream back to life

I.

Honor the legacy

Every story we publish carries forward what Mr. Rogers started — a network that puts Black athletes and their stories at the center, not the margins.

II.

Train the next generation

We're building a home for the next wave of sports writers, giving them the platform, mentorship, and audience to grow their craft.

III.

Tell the full story

From the field to the front office, we cover the athletes, the culture, and the community around the game — with depth, not just headlines.
