Welcome to the first episode of You Got Byrned. Alabama Director of Athletics Greg Byrne sits down with head football coach Kalen DeBoer for a candid conversation about taking on one of the most recognizable jobs in sports—and doing it during one of the most disruptive periods in the history of college athletics. DeBoer reflects on the path from small-town South Dakota to Tuscaloosa, the coaches and experiences that shaped his leadership philosophy, and the challenge of succeeding Nick Saban without trying to become him. He and Byrne go inside their relationship during Alabama’s historic transition, the importance of authenticity and trust, building culture in a changing college football landscape, and what leadership looks like when expectations never slow down.
You Got Byrned is a new podcast hosted by University of Alabama Director of Athletics Greg Byrne, featuring candid conversations with extraordinary leaders from sports, business, entertainment and beyond about sports, business and leadership—and what it takes to build culture and achieve success in a world that refuses to stand still.
