One of the most eye-opening parts of my podcast with @jimcavale was our discussion about this diminishing narrative in college sports: the story of a player overcoming adversity and persevering at his current school.
The player who wanted to quit his freshman year because he and his coach didn’t get along.
Called his parents and coach saying he was done.
But then bought into the program and the message coach was saying.
To then earning a starting spot by giving tremendous effort on and off the field
Then proving he can do it in front of 90,000 people.
To finish his career on the stage after an all-conference selection.
