Martin Newton, Director of Athletics
Samford University alumnus and director of athletics
Martin Newton has transformed the Bulldogs into one of the Southern Conference’s most successful programs since taking the helm of the department on March 9, 2011.
Two years ago, Newton signed a five-year contract extension that began on July 1, 2022.
Newton has made an impact nationally in his time at Samford as he is in the middle of a fiveyear appointment to the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee. In 2026-27, he will serve as the committees chair. Additionally, he currently serves on the NCAA Division I Council and the Men’s Basketball Oversight Committee. He was also recently appointed to the NCAA Council Coordination Committee (CCC).
On the fields and courts, the Bulldogs have captured 82 Southern Conference regular season and tournament championships during his tenure, including a school record 11 championships in 202223.
Additionally, Samford has won the last five Southern Conference’s Germann Cups (top women’s athletics program) and Graduation Rate awards. Samford has also won two of the last three Commissioner’s Cups, which goes to the top men’s athletic program in the SoCon. Academically, the school’s student-athletes have also posted outstanding results in the classroom, with 2,735 Bulldogs being named to the SoCon Academic Honor Roll. Samford’s student-athletes posted an impressive 98 percent in the most recent NCAA’s Graduation Success Rate (GSR) report, the highest mark in the SoCon and in the state of Alabama.
Over the last 14 years, the Athletics Department has seen significant growth in corporate partnerships and annual giving, more than doubling philanthropic gifts and sponsorship revenues.
Facility enhancements have also been a hallmark of Newton’s tenure with the Bulldogs. Samford has opened a new soccer and track stadium as well as a new softball stadium, indoor hitting facility for the baseball and softball programs and an indoor practice
facility for men’s and women’s golf. A new academic center was recently built in Bashinsky Field House. Additionally, state-of-the-art video boards have been added to the Pete Hanna Center (men’s and women’s basketball/volleyball), Pete Hanna Stadium (football), Joe Lee Griffin Field (baseball) and in Shauna Yelton Field at the Cameron Bean Track (soccer/track and field).
The football video board was a part of Phase I of the Seibert Stadium project, which was completed in August 2019 and was 100 percent donor funded. Phase II, which was completed prior to the 2021 season, included a complete renovation of the Bashinsky Press Tower, new premium seating on the west side of the stadium and renovations to the east side Gate House.
In the spring of 2017, a goal of Newton’s was realized when the inaugural class of the Samford Athletics Hall of Fame was inducted.
He has also negotiated an exclusive university-wide footwear and apparel deal with Nike, helped lead the way on a university-wide licensing agreement with the Licensing Resource Group and successfully transformed the antiquated radio network into an industry leader in campus-led broadcast production with all Samford home athletic events airing on ESPN3 or ESPN+.
Newton started the Samford Strong Leadership Academy in 2014. The academy is a program jointly developed between the Athletics Department and the Frances Marlin Mann Center for Ethics and Leadership. Its mission is to bring successful athletes to campus to share their personal stories and the importance of faith and character to success in all areas of life for Samford’s student-athletes.
Following his 1983 graduation from Samford, he worked in sports marketing for Converse for 13 years. Newton then spent 13 years in a similar capacity at Nike.
Prior to his return to Samford, Newton was hired at the University of Kentucky in 2009, where he managed the budget, fund-raising, compliance, scheduling, marketing and academic support for the men’s basketball program.
Newton and his wife, Cindy, have three grown children, Katie, Madison and Charles. They also have two grandsons, Charlie and Sawyer.

Q&A with Jadin Booth
By Brad Seitz
When did you start playing basketball?
I started playing basketball when I was 5 years old in the YMCA and the Upward basketball league.
Who is your favorite basketball player and why? My favorite basketball player would be Jimmer Fredette or Carsen Edwards for college basketball. My favorite NBA player would be Lebron Raymone James.
What is your dream career after graduating from Samford? My dream career would be having my own gym where I can work kids out but also add a faith aspect to it. I would want to hold bible studies and worship nights at the gym and be able to develop real relationships with the kids and help them get to college. I would also want to live on a bunch of land and own cattle and be a part-time rancher.
What is your go to pre game meal? Grilled Chicken with pasta and vodka sauce
What attracted you to Samford the most? The biblical values that the school stands for and the family atmosphere that Coach Acuff and the staff has created.
What country is on the top of your bucket list to travel to? I would love to travel to Italy or Greece
Which music artist do you listen to pregame? Elevation Worship
If it wasn’t basketball which sport would you have tried to play in college?
I don’t think I would have played a sport, I think I
would have played drums at a big bible college.
What is one thing people might not know about you? I am super particular in what I eat and the ingredients that go into a lot of the meals that I eat.
What are your individual and team goals for this season? No individual goals this year, it’s all about winning the conference championship and getting to March Madness.
Who do you credit most for helping you in your basketball career so far? I would say my brother Jevan has helped me the most with the skill and knowledge of the game. He would pick me up every Wednesday after school and ask if I wanted to go workout. More times than not we would end up at the gym and he would work me out, play me in 21 in the driveway, and we would always watched basketball games together to learn how to get better. He taught me everything that I know about the game. My parents sacrificed a lot financially to put me in the position I am in. They picked up extra jobs to help pay for travel ball even when my mom was in school and my dad being a full-time pastor and they never missed a game or out of town tournament. They are my biggest fans, and I would not be here today without their love and support.
Which gym or opponent has been your favorite place to play in your career?
Allen Fieldhouse at Kansas or Jenkins Fieldhouse!
