Ball State Sports Link to Release 12-Episode Weekly Docuseries on Ball State Football
August 26, 2025 | Football
MUNCIE, Ind. – Ball State Football has teamed with on-campus partner Ball State Sports Link to present a weekly documentary series that will follow the first season of Head Coach Mike Uremovich and the 2025 Cardinals.
Nationally renowned among major U.S. universities for its sports media production program, Sports Link crews officially began production July 29 for one of its most ambitious projects — a 12-episode weekly docuseries with Ball State Football. "It's important to me because I like to get our players' stories out there," Uremovich said. "I know we're going to feature football, but we're also going to get into some of their personal lives and some of the experiences they've had. There's more to these guys than just the jersey that runs out there on Saturday."
TOGETHER is directed by sophomore executive producer Jude Kieffer and Sports Link alum, turned program graduate assistant, Jordan Klimes. Episode 1 premieres August 28, just two days before the Cardinals open the season at Purdue. Additional episodes will drop weekly on Thursdays of game week, on BallStateSports.com and Ball State and Sports Link YouTube channels.
"This not only gives us a chance, but Sports Link also, to put something together that can get more eyes on our program," quarterback Kiael Kelly said. "It's a good opportunity to spread awareness on the Ball State program, and who we are as people."
TOGETHER offers an in-depth look at the Ball State football team, exploring their lives on and off the field. On the field, witness the intense training regimens, strategic game preparation and the atmosphere of game days. Off the field, the series delves into the academic commitments, personal stories and the motivation to be a Division I football player.
"It's important to this team because it is giving an eye to what actually goes on," said defensive tackle Darin Conley. "All fans usually see is us on the field, or in our helmets, but now you can put a face with a name. With this docuseries, I feel like you're going to see a lot of guys that you wouldn't have seen. You're going to see the highs and lows of the season."
The Sports Link executive production team includes Nate Locker and Sam Findley, along with episode editors Ethan Gable, Ashlynne Owens, Isaiah Harley, Dylan Budd and Josh Bobay. Ball State Sports Link is a production partner of Ball State Athletics.
