  • Analysis of the Image Restoration Strategies of High Profile College Athletes
    16 — The Elon Journal of Undergraduate Research in Communications • Vol. 4, No. 2 • Fall 2013 Pay for Play: Analysis of the Image Restoration Strategies of High Profile College Athletes Jacob H. Selzer* Strategic Communications Elon University Abstract This study sought to explore the college athletic landscape through a Crisis Communications per- spective. Using William Benoit’s “Theory of Image Restoration” as a framework, this study employed a case-study approach to analyze the image restoration strategies of three high profile college football players following scandals. The study found a consistent use of traditional strategies such as mortification, corrective action, and denial from the athletes and associated parties. This research demonstrates the level of promi- nence that college athletes have been elevated to and concludes they be recognized from a public relations standpoint accordingly. Given the national attention and loyalty that college athletics receive, this study would provide an important foundation for future research on a rapidly evolving section of society as well. I. Introduction College athletics have been engrained in American culture for nearly as long as the institutions of higher learning themselves. These programs are more than just participatory sports for students, they are a unique aspect of American society. Zealous fan devotion has elevated college athletics to a level of promi- nence that is largely unparalleled in the world of American sports. With a devoted fan base and a national spotlight, college
