Seth McCoy is well-known in the TikTok space for his channel "the6ixShooter" which is actually where I first came in contact with him myself.

Today, we'll be talking with the sharp-shooter from Ohio, regarding his basketball career and what lessons he's learned!

He took a unique journey through the college athletics world. It began with Prep School, then JUCO, then Division 2. And he's here to shine the light on the fact that if you are SKILLED in a certain aspect of the game (such as Shooting) you can indeed get yourself to the next level of the sport! Listen in and find out more!

You'll love to hear about his shooting academy workouts he has, and you'll definitely want to be following the guy on his social platforms if you aren't already.

Growing up in Florida, Jon Willis was very familiar with what it took for athletes to compete at the next level. His own brother, (who played football at the highest level) was a major example to him as Jon would often train alongside his older brother and his brother's teammates/friends.

In today's interview, we'll discuss some of the ways that Coach Jon Willis prepared himself (as a player) for the opportunities that would end up presenting themselves later on, and how he took advantage of those opportunities himself. It's something ALL athletes should take notes on.

Also, we'll chat in-depth about the scope of the college athletics world. Coach Jon has experience coaching at the D3, NAIA, and JUCO levels, and was a D1 Basketball player himself. So he'll chat about how even JUCO has changed and how the talent level has increased. We'll talk about some of the reasons for that (including the transfer portal and many other things)

All athletes should take note of what Jon has to say today. You'll definitely be glad you did!

And as we discuss in the interview, make sure to follow Jon on his various channels:

It's a phenomenal opportunity to learn about the sport of basketball and hear it from this former D1 Player, turned coach, here on the show!

What he had to do to earn a roster spot and earn time on the floor. We'll also hear about what he, as a coach, would suggest for younger kids who may be smaller or shorter, in regards to how they can make themselves standout if they are looking to get recruited!

What a perfect interview for anyone who is looking to play at the next level or who knows someone who is looking for that opportunity!

You'll definitely want to tune into this one today because you'll hear a TON about what Brant has going on over at Max Hoops!

Everyone has a different journey to get to where they are, and for Hunter Belzo, the idea of playing professional football, seemed like it was slim when he ended up with a broken ankle early into his senior year in college.

Little did Hunter know, the adversity he faced during that time, would only prepare him for different things to happen in the future. And what he has learned with football is when adversity hits, you have to find a way to keep going.

That's why Hunter did the work himself to find himself with the Idaho Horsemen (Indoor Football Team) in 2021 so he could begin his professional career. And we'll hear about what his experience was like during his time in Idaho while he was here.

Now, Hunter finds himself playing football overseas and having a great time. But we'll learn about the game overseas and the differences with what it's like over here in America.

It's an awesome conversation with a guy who has so much information to share and his story is nothing short of inspiring!

If you want to follow his football journey, make sure you're following him on his different platforms. He has his own podcast with his older brother that you will all enjoy, and he posts a lot of his content to his instagram page:

Sports are a wonderful thing! Whether you are competing as an athlete, or you're coaching, or even if you build a business around the sports world. Collin Castellaw has been able to take his talents to the entreprenuerial space and build some really amazing businesses around sports.

Today we get to learn about his first "major" sports business venture, when he created content for "Shot Mechanics" and placed his content on YouTube! Collin gained a ton of traction through this, and as you'll hear in the interview, he learned a lot along the way with that journey.

Then came the next venture, which we'll learn all about today as well! Checkout what Collin and his business partners have cooking with PlayersTV and learn about the platform they've created for professional athletes to place their content for the world to see.

This is a great conversation you do not want to miss. From a High School Teacher, to Sports Entrepreneur, Collin has some great insight to share with the world, so please tap in and stay tuned for this episode! You'll be glad you did!

When I was covering sports for a different company here locally in Idaho, I remember the name coming up over and over again, Isaiah Wright from Borah High School! He was dominating all throuhgout high school. He was one of those talents that made an immediate impact from his freshman year on.

What was awesome, is watching his journey from afar since then. From the time he spent at The University of Utah, as well as The University of San Diego, to the NBA G-League, and now playing professionally overseas, it's been a wild ride.

What I didn't know however, were the details behind everything in the journey. And that's why this interview is special to me. To hear Isaiah, in his own words, explain what has happened behind the scenes and share the experiences he's had, is super cool to me.

We'll chat about his experience at U of U where he was able to experience the NCAA Tournament in the two years he was there. And we'll talk about his decision to transfer to San Diego and finish his college career there before going to the professional level.

We'll chat about the work it takes to play at the college level, as well as what the biggest transition to the professional level was. And then what it's like playing overseas compared to here in the states!

His journey is just beginning and you'll hear him talking about that today on the show!

I hope you guys all enjoy this one! It's great for athletes and parents to hear so they can each have a realistic viewpoint of what it takes to compete at that next level.

A young man from Southern California, who grew up with a father who played professional football, somehow finds his way to Boise, Idaho to play football for the Boise State Broncos. Today we get to find out more of the story behind it all.

Listen in as Vinny Perretta shares his story about his journey to the "blue" and as he talks about the life lessons that football taught him!

We'll have a great discussion regarding the Fiesta Bowl vs Oklahoma, arguably one of the greatest (if not THE greatest) football games in college football history, and what was going through his mind when he threw the touchdown pass on a 4th and 2 which led to the infamous "Statue of Liberty Play" that is known world-wide.

It's a phenomenal conversation that will be fun for Boise State and College Football fans to reminisce a bit, but also for current athletes to learn from someone who has been able to defy the odds and play football at a very high level!

He also had an amazing opportunity to play with three different (uniquely different) quarterbacks, and he'll share what he took away from each one of them during his time in College.

Tune in and pay attention as we speak to the former Boise State Wide-Receiver.

From the outside looking in, one might think professional basketball player, Trey Moses has it all. He's playing the sport he loves at the professional level. He even got to play at the Division 1 level (something many athletes never get to do), and he has a great support system.

What many don't know however, is the struggle he's had for MANY years (dating back to when he was in the 7th grade) of battling with depression and anxiety.

His struggles with mental health, along with his athletic journey, can be extremely difficult. And today we'll hear about how bad it truly got.

It's a blessing Trey is still with all of us today to share his story. But many people don't make it through the tough battles. His best friend and former college teammate, Zach, lost his life due to suicide, and Trey was actually the one to find him when it happened. The full story can be found here: https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/college/2019/06/18/ball-states-trey-moses-lost-friend-teammate-zach-hollywood-suicide/1171967001/

Find out how this event shaped the rest of Trey's life and what he does now to try and make sure he's being a good human to others out there.

Listen to the advice he gives to all of us. And what he wants to do moving forward in his athletic journey as well as in his personal life!

There's a lot of gold that can be taken from this interview in regards to the basketball world too. The advice he gives if you want to play at the next level. And the life lessons you can take from the sport.

Don't miss the episode! And don't forget to check out 24 Reasons which has multiple charities that you can donate to as Trey continues to keep Zach's legacy alive!
