Willie Mangum IV shares his story of how he beats the odds on his crazy journey from high school basketball in Richmond Virginia at John Marshall High School to becoming a pro basketball player overseas. It is a roller coaster of a story and Willie has learned so much and become the man he is today from all of the adversity he has had to face.

NFL star quarterback Aaron Brooks from the New Orleans Saints 2000-2005 squad stopped by the studio today to share stories from his UVA days with host Tiffany where she also attended school, talk through his time in the NFL and his career, and also shared what he is up to in his post-NFL career. 

Aaron Brooks made a huge impact in New Orleans, leading the franchise to their first ever playoff victory in the NFL, as well as winning the NFC South in that same year. He played with a lot of great players in his time with the Saints, and throughout the show you will get a great inside look at what it's like to play in the NFL.

The Virginia state football champs of Varina were in the house talking football, culture, mentorship, and community!! Tune in as these men talk about the shaping of the next generation and the impact it’s having over there on RTE 5 and beyond! 

Head coach Marcus Lewis and some members of his coaching staff brought us a great episode today where we dove into the leadership and mentorship behind their state championship-winning high school football team. There is so much more that goes into leading a group of high schoolers than just being good at the sport, and these men take what they do very seriously and love being more than just a coach to these kids.
