The executive's direct reports will now report into NBCU broadcast and streaming chief Mark Lazarus.
Lazarus added that Bevacqua’s direct reports will now report to him.
NBC is the TV home for Notre Dame Fighting Irish football, an unusual agreement in the college football world, which is built around divisions like the SEC and PAC 10. In its announcement, Notre Dame suggested that Bevacqua will help the Indiana-based university figure out how to navigate the increasingly complex world of sports rights.
“Bevacqua will bring world-class leadership and high acumen to the rapidly changing landscape of live and on-demand sports content and sports management,” the university said. “This is an unbelievable honor for me and a dream come true. With the exception of my family, nothing means more to me than the University of Notre Dame,” Bevacqua said in a statement. “As a Notre Dame alum, I have a keen understanding and deep appreciation of the lifetime, transformational benefit our student-athletes receive in a Notre Dame education, one that is unique and unlike any other institution in the world.
His departure comes a year out from the critical 2024 Olympics in Paris, and amid a tumultuous moment for NBCU.
