    Belmont President
Fisher led Belmont University to unparalleled successes as he helped steward the Bruins' early years in NCAA Division I through vision, relation-building, and investment.
 
In his more than two decades of service to Belmont, Fisher was instrumental in construction of four transformational athletic facilities - the Curb Event Center, E.S. Rose Park, the Crockett Center for Athletic Excellence and the Beaman Family Tennis Complex.
 
Under Fisher's watch, the Bruins systematically rose from NCAA Division I independent, to the Atlantic Sun Conference, Ohio Valley Conference and currently the Missouri Valley Conference, thriving on the field of play and in the classroom.
 
Belmont won 59 conference championships during Fisher's tenure with 23 team NCAA Tournament appearances. Belmont also annually ranked among NCAA leaders in graduation rate and academic progress rate.
 
He spearheaded high-profile events coming to the Belmont campus, most notably the Davis Cup, as well as instituting the President's Scholar-Athlete of the Year award and President's Spirit Cup to honor student-athlete achievement and student attendance at athletic events.
 
Fisher served on the NCAA Division I Board and Executive Committee and hired current University vice president/director of athletics Scott Corley.
