Colby Blaine | College of Idaho Men's Basketball Coach | National Championship and Coach of the Year
The last time I spoke with Colby Blaine, was back in 2020, and we were able to hear about what he was building over at College of Idaho for their men's basketball program. Since that time SO MUCH has happened, which is exactly why I needed to circle back with the man to hear the updates. The Yotes basketball program won the national championship in 2023 and 2025 with some big runs into the Elite 8 and the Fab 4 of the NAIA National Tournament in the past few years. He's also finished with an NABC NAIA Coach of the Year award in 2023 and 2025. According to Wikipedia "The NABC Coach of the Year is an award given annually by the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) to recognize the top head coach in men's college basketball across the four largest college athletic associations in the United States." To say Coach Blaine has achieved success at this program, would be a massive understatement. And it's due in large part to his amazing leadership qualities! His ability to get his players to rally behind him is incredible. We'll learn from him about many aspects of coaching, recruiting, growth mindset, personal development and more! If you're looking to be a better leader in your life, this is one you're going to need to tap into! Thanks for tuning into the show and for showing your support!

David Hitz | Athlete Narrative | Amazing Tool to Help Athletes In Their Recruiting Journey
Athlete Narrative is an app for athletes to help streamline the recruiting process for them. See, one of the biggest hiccups in the young athlete's journey, is the recruiting process as a whole. What do they need when they reach out to coaches? How many emails do they need to send? What if there was a tool that could help with all of this? The app will help you build your radar page (profile) and then with the AI technology inside of it, will provide you information on schools and their coaching staff's information to contact. It will help you craft emails that are tailored to those schools to provide all the necessary information that coaches need and want to hear. This app is literally providing HOPE for the athletes! It's allowing them the opportunity to send out multiple emails in MINUTES! Rather than just a few emails in a few days! And the best part about it, is the fact that it's AFFORDABLE!! For as much as you probably pay at the gas station in a day or two, you can pay for Athlete Narrative for $20/month. I'd encourage all athletes and parents who are needing help in the recruiting process, to reach out if you have questions and checkout this app! Head to: www.athletenarrative.com If you have questions email: [email protected] You can also follow them on social media: If you're under the radar in recruiting, this will help put you on the map! #Recruiting #AITechnology #CollegeRecruits _______________________________________________ If you enjoy the show and would like to WATCH the interviews, make sure to give me a follow on and catch the full VIDEO conversations there as well!

Nick Fazekas: Nevada Basketball Legend Becomes SUPERSTAR in Japan
Nick Fazekas was a University of Nevada (Reno) Legend!! There is a reason why his number is retired at the University! What some (like myself) may not have known however, is just how unbelievable his story was AFTER college! Nick played college basketball during a time where I watched a LOT of basketball and I remembered him playing at Nevada. That said, I never realized what actually happened when he left college. Today in this interview however, I learned SO MUCH that I never would have realized had he not joined me for the discussion. What I hope you take from this interview is how Nick was able to battle through the ups and downs of his career. How he kept pushing through adversity. How his path was not necessarily the path that he may have thought it was going to be, but it was the one that he needed. We'll learn so much about his experience in the pros from the G League, to the NBA, to Europe (and even stories about paychecks not coming in), to the G League again, to Japan and how he became a superstar in Japan for many years, putting Japan on the map! It's truly a remarkable story of perseverance and the cool thing is, Nick recently retired from professional basketball after an incredible career! I hope you enjoy this interview as much as I did!! It's full of golden nuggets! #NickFazekas #UniversityofNevada #JapanBasketball _____________________________________ If you would like to watch the show, please feel free to follow me on YouTube and catch the video podcast from each of the guests!

Jacob Hobson: Kansas City Royals AZ Bullpen Catcher
Jacob Hobson has quite the story on how he became a Bullpen Catcher for the Kansas City Royals. And that's why I love doing this podcast, as you have an opportunity to find out the 'story behind the story' if you will. From a call from his dad to a staff member at Cal State Fullerton, to now helping at the Arizona facility for the Royals as he helps the pitchers who are rehabbing and getting back to playing shape, Jacob has quite the journey as a bullpen catcher. We'll get to learn about what that position even is. To be honest, before I spoke with him, I literally didn't even realize that was an actual position. I assumed other catchers just simply helped out in the bullpen but there is actually an opportunity with that particular position and it's amazing to see where it's taken him. In our episode we'll not only learn about the ins and outs of the position, but we'll hear of some of the cool experiences Jacob has had since doing this. Where he's played at, what players he's worked alongside and helped out, and much much more. And hey, if you'd like to follow Jacob in his journey (as well as take him up on some of his catching coaching) make sure you are following him: Jacob Hobson Instagram: Jacob Hobson Twitter: Stealing Strikes Instagram: Thanks for tuning in and if you like this episode, I'd ask that you consider giving us a follow here on the platform!

Jason Burton: Head Football Coach - Owyhee High School
I've aways been drawn to Jason Burton's energy and passion with what he does. As the head coach, he's great at developing culture within a program. You cannot question the fact that his players will go to battle for him! This interview is an inside look at Coach Burton's career and we learn about leadership, culture building, perseverance, and the life lessons that sports will teach you. We also talk in depth about Athletes Against Anxiety and Depression. This is an amazing resource for those who battle with their mental health. From the website: "China McCarney started the foundation Athletes Against Anxiety and Depression because he deals with Anxiety on a daily basis and felt the need and desire to “Be The Change” instead of waiting for a change. China resisted and fought his anxiety disorder for 5 years before he finally decided to attack it head on. He discovered that the second he embraced Anxiety as just being a part of who he was, just like all of his other attributes, it no longer had the severe crippling effect that it had in the past. As he began to study Anxiety and Depression he realized what a stigma the mental health issues had. That stigma is a huge part of the problem. People feel they have to be embarrassed because they are dealing with one or more of these issues and they hide and hold on to it as tightly as they possibly can." If you'd like to learn more about this foundation, you can find out more by visiting the website: You can also follow them on social media at: If you enjoy learning about leadership, athletics, mental health, and perseverance, this isn't one you're going to want to miss!

Al Fontes is a National Wrestling Hall of Fame Writer, who has years and years of experience with the sport. And although writing wasn't his FIRST passion, he has now become one of the best to do it. His ability to break down the sport and cover the athletes involved, is incredible. Today we get to hear from him and learn of his background in the sport and where he came from. We'll chat about wrestling in California as compared to here in Idaho and what he's learned while he's been covering the sport here in Idaho (since he moved here just a few short years ago). We also break down the Girl's Wrestling too and discuss the immense growth that is happening on that side too! It's an incredible opportunity to become enlightened as Al shares some serious insight with the rest of us. What I would highly recommend is taking a look at TIER 1 Wrestling on Instagram to see the coverage he provides on social media. You can find his page here: I'd also highly encourage you all to take a look at his content on where he does the majority of his work these days. - Below I'd love to share with you all a list of the work he's done as a writer throughout the last 25+ years (you'll understand just how good this man's work truly is) ALFRED F.

Dalton Lins: Former Boise State Offensive Lineman | Hybrid Athlete
Dalton Lins knows what it’s like to compete at a high level. Growing up in Hawaii, Dalton fell in love with the game of football through his father. He competed at a very high level in his high school days and ended up as a preferred walk-on at Boise State, where his college days began. The cool part about this story, is how Dalton kept showing up!! Through his career, he was typically a backup Center on the O-Line, but he kept showing up and earned an opportunity to play special teams and travel with the team. A great, valuable lesson to be learned here for the younger generation, on the importance of continuing to show up!! In our conversation, we’ll discuss Dalton’s career and the memories he had at Boise State. We’ll chat about stadiums he played in, and some of the leaders he was around. We’ll also talk about the journey OUT of football when the playing days were over. The transition from playing to the ‘real world’ is not always an easy one. We’ll chat about his ability to find a job that allowed him to utilize his skills he acquired in his sports career, into his professional career in sales. Also, a major piece to this conversation also revolves around Dalton’s fitness journey too. Since completing his football career, he’s now focused on his health and has completely transformed his mind, body, and spirit!

Jake Pele: Former Idaho State Bengal Football Player and Co-Owner of In The Trenches Academy
I met Jake through my sports media platforms when he was coaching high school football here locally in Idaho. Today, through this interview, I learn about his story on how he got to where he's at and what helped shape him in his journey. Through our conversation we'll learn about his business at In The Trenches Academy and what inspired this business plan. This is an incredibly insightful interview. One I hope you all pay attention to. If you are a parent of an athlete, I would encourage you to listen and have your children listen as well. Jake is a man of character who understands the importance of perseverance. Playing college football for a program that didn't win many games during his tenure there, yet he understood the importance of strapping up the pads and getting to work each and every day. This has transpired into his regular life in his full-time career(s) as well! He's a well respected coach and trainer in the football scene too. Between coaching at the high school level and running In The Trenches Academy, he's inspiring young athletes to develop, improve, and have chances to play at the next level. One of the great things about what he is doing with , along with his business partner, is they are bringing linemen together to learn the techniques and skills that are necessary to make a difference 'in the trenches.' You see so many different skill position camps and training facilities, but there aren't as many places for linemen to go for the same types of training. It's unique and a great opportunity for those on the offensive and defensive lines to improve in their game!

Will Alabama rebound from their loss to Vandy? What do they need to do in order to get back into the race for the #1 spot? We'll break down our thoughts on the 12-Team Playoff format for the college football playoff as well. You may not realize it now, but there will be quite a few teams pretty upset when the final rankings are set in stone, and we'll explain the reasons why.
