In what’s far and away the most fun story of the week, Peter goes on a deeper dive to get to know Bears rookie QB Tyson Bagent. Peter is joined by Bagent’s college coach, Shepherd University (WV) HC Ernie McCook. Coach McCook dazzles us with stories of Bagent’s absurd college exploits on the field, as well as some of the intangible magic he has off of it. He also tells us about the Bears QB’s incredible work ethic, and what it’s like training and preparing at a DII school as opposed to a Division 1 power. Coach McCook says that no Division I school offered Bagent a scholarship and how being in his life since he was a teenager helped him land the recruit of a lifetime. Finally, he tells us which NFL legend he compares Bagent to and sheds light on how Bagent got prepared for a 2023 NFL season in which he was no guarantee to make the roster.
