So today's guest on The Credentials, David Nichols, is someone who went from coming off a broken leg and missing his entire junior year and visiting D3's his senior year of high school to becoming the Chicago Catholic North Side Player of the Year and still having no substantial Division 1 offers. Imagine how that feels? Find out what David had to do to EARN his scholarship while on a visit with a school to prove he's worthy to make the team. David Nichols went on to break school records while at that same school, plus making it to the Sweet 16 while at Florida State University.

However, he shares what subtle big change he added to his basketball regime that unlocked his game and took it to a whole other level.

David Nichols is now a professional scorer in Slovenia with plans to reach the top 6 European leagues in the coming years. Similar to his Division 1 journey he is once again overlooked and undervalued, having to start from the lower leagues and working his way up the ladder. During the course of this conversation, David shares what it's like to be an American hooper coming to an overseas team and the expectations these European teams have for American players. Not to mention he shares a few of the perks of being an Overseas Hooper and what he is doing to maximize his platform right now while preparing for the future.

Accountability - is the willingness or obligation to accept responsibility for one’s own actions.

"If you have enough energy text and text then keep that same energy to talk and explain.."

In this episode of The Credentials, Accountability is the topic of discussion both internally and externally. This topic is inspired by a group chat conversation that got passionate and overwhelming at times. However, respect, appreciation, concern, and care were the core sentiments of the discussion. So take a listen as to what sparked the accountability conversation, the key takeaways from the conversation, and different perspectives to be aware of when talking accountability. However, if you do what the key lesson from this episode it's ... start listening :)

In this episode of "The Credentials", the focus is on how to capitalize on the College experience in today's society. Dr. Jason Pappas works with Florida State University Master's Students and helps place them in sports jobs & internships. Whether it be NBA, NFL, Golf, Tennis, Power 5, or any other type of sports entity. Dr.Pappas was in Miami for the College Football Playoff National Championship Game letting students get the opportunity to work all pre-game festivities as well as the big game. Dr.Pappas personally helped me land a sports marketing job with Madison Square Garden Company. Whether you know it or not, the value of a college degree in the workspace has seen a sharp decline since everyone has a degree now. With that being said, resume experiences are more and more becoming the x-factor or deciding factor on whether or not people get hired in their preferred industry. This episode features the following questions: What are the important characteristics/skillsets to have in college? What separates people who have successful careers in sports and those who don't? Lastly, I ask his honest opinion on what it takes to make six or seven figures in sports?
