info_outlineDon Beebe was the first player to be a part of 6 Super Bowl teams and is famous for chasing down Leon Lett.
Deion Sanders and Don Beebe both had the combine record of 4.25 in the 40. Don shares the behind the scene story when he was at the combine. Insane!
So many miracle stories in Don's story. Out of football for 3 years, one of the colleges that had recruited him out of high school called and asked if he'd come back and play.
His grandfather was not a good man, but Don's dad succeeded as a dad even though he had an awful father. He changed the Legacy of the Beebe name.
After he retired from football, he created The House of Speed and has trained over 200,000 athletes. He coached high school and won state championships and he is now the head coach at Aurora University. He was able to sign a 10 year contract and demanded some specific things to be included in his contract.
-Why do bad things happen to good people? Romans 8:28
-Why did Don run down Leon Lett in the SuperBowl?
-What is the #1 attribute we need to be a great leader?
-How do we know if we are actually a Man of God?
-What's something you learned from legendary coach Marv Levy?
-How does revenge affect you and what are the ripple effects?
Some of my takeaways:
"If it's about playing time, then we don't have a relationship."
"What you are at home IS what you really are."
"Discipline out of love"
"Character will be revealed in every game you play."
"Things are Caught not Taught."
"Sin will keep you from this book."
"It's important that you know the playbook. If you don't know the playbook, you can't perform in life."
