Compliance is the buying group for compliance software, eligibility and roster-management platforms, NIL disclosure tools and education providers. Typical titles in this group: Associate AD for Compliance; Director of Compliance & Eligibility; Compliance Coordinator. Whistle customers filter these positions by conference, school, state and sport, see each person's name, title and contact details where the directory publishes them, and get an alert when one of the positions changes hands.
Positions are counted when the published job title matches the compliance pattern (and not an exclusion such as student, intern or graduate assistant); the same rule produces the counts and the change tallies.
Change counts compare successive reads of each school's official directory; a school's first extraction and any day on which 25% or more of a roster appears or disappears at once (a re-read, not turnover) are excluded. This page is published when at least 3 covered South Atlantic schools have the function and they list at least 10 positions between them; smaller combinations are kept out of search indexes.
19 current positions across 11 covered South Atlantic athletic departments as of 15 Oct 2026; Anderson University (S.C.) lists the most (3).

0 changes in the last 90 days: 0 hires, 0 departures, 0 title changes, after excluding first reads and same-day re-reads.
From the staff directories athletic departments publish on their official websites, read automatically on a rolling schedule (NCAA Division I roughly weekly, Division II and III every three to four weeks). Whistle never publishes names, emails or phone numbers on public pages; staff can remove their details at any time at gowhistle.io/remove-my-info.
