In this solo episode of The Gametime Guru Podcast, I'm sharing two stories that hit close to home—one from the sideline and one from the broader world of college sports. How I Learned (Again) That I Belong I relive one of my final club basketball games coaching in California—when my undersized team went toe-to-toe with a junior college squad and found a way to win. It's a raw look at belief, resilience, and learning how to win again after a stretch of setbacks. If you've ever questioned whether you belong—at work, in sport, or in life—this one's for you. The NIL Era: Opportunity & Uncertainty I break down the current state of Name, Image & Likeness (NIL) in college sports: How NIL is reshaping recruiting and roster retention Why powerhouse programs (think Ohio State) and mid-majors (like Boise State) face different realities The rise of donor fatigue and what it means for long-term sustainability Why NIL can be a double-edged sword—creating new opportunities for JUCO and DII athletes while adding pressure elsewhere Practical ideas for athletes (yes, even JUCO players) to build a brand—like starting a podcast and owning your story What you'll take away: How to rebuild confidence after a string of losses Why culture and standards help you "flip the switch" back to winning Actionable ways athletes and coaches can adapt in the NIL era If you're a coach, parent, athlete, or sports fan who believes games teach life, you'll feel right at home here. After nine years of conversations with athletes and coaches from 183 countries and all 50 states, I'm more convinced than ever: when you put in the work, you belong. If this episode resonates, follow the show and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts—it helps the mission and keeps the conversations coming. Thanks for listening and for being part of the Gametime Guru community.
