There arguably are no more passionate fans than those of regional sports, and Krolik understands how to connect with those fans uniquely through the Fox Sports brand with implementations including Basketball Day Indiana and Football Week in Michigan. Like any good coach, he believes in a strong roster, which is why Krolik develops talented executives. A veteran of the regional sports realm, he sits atop the largest owned-and-operated RSN group in the U.S., comprising 22 channels with rights to 44 NBA, NHL and MLB teams across the country. That means he’s responsible for one of the biggest profit centers not only at Fox Sports, but within the entire 21st Century Fox organization.
