Welcome to Travis Take Two! Hosted by brothers Jordan Travis (FSU & NFL Quarterback) and Devon Travis (FSU & MLB Second Baseman), this episode features an inspiring conversation with former Florida State Quarterback James Blackman about his journey from Muck City, FL to leading the Seminoles Football Program through challenging times.

The discussion covers Florida State's recent Double Overtime loss to Virginia, and the upcoming rivalry game against the Miami Hurricanes, with James sharing his unique perspective on what it takes to bounce back from adversity. The conversation explores James's unexpected baptism by fire as a True Freshman starting against Alabama, his leadership philosophy, and the mental challenges of playing Quarterback at a powerhouse program through multiple coaching changes.

The episode delves into the real pressures athletes face beyond the field, including dealing with fan criticism on social media, the importance of faith in navigating difficult seasons, and what it means to be remembered for character rather than just statistics. Jordan and James reflect on their special teammate bond, how James impacted the next generation of Seminoles, and his current journey chasing his NFL dreams while staying grounded in his faith and commitment to serving his community.
