Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele grew up on the shores of Ewa Beach, Hawaii.He was a three star recruit who showed up at the Elite 11 and became a legend in the 28 year history of the premiere QB event in football. At every turn JSK took the opportunity he was given and never looked back.He shared many of those in today's conversation, fueled by our founding sponsor 76, keeping you on the GO GO GO so you never miss a beat.Two years ago at the Elite 11 finals, he went throw for throw with Dillon Gabriel - a counselor that year, as well as a former state record holder in Hawaii and a QB Jaron-Keawe had watched since middle school. They could have gone throw for throw all night. Trust me, I was front and center. In the end, Gabriel graciously stepped aside and Jaron-Keawe won the rail shot challenge. It was clear watching it - something shifted in that moment.Looking back, in that moment a three-star kid from Hawaii had just introduced himself to the country.When I asked Jaron about that moment, he was direct. He came in with the mindset that he was going to win it. No asterisk. No footnote. Just belief, out loud.Last year he started as a true freshman, taking over for Fernando Mendoza, who ended up winning the Heisman Trophy and being drafted #1 overall. We spoke about that journey, and what it was like to have his head coach, Tosh Lupoi sleep outside his home the night he was named Cal's head coach.This conversation will inspire the quarterback who isn't getting the attention he deserves - and nudge the highly recruited ones to keep working, because the craft is never complete.Hope you enjoy it.

Join us for a special weekend episode from the Built Different podcast hosted by Dr. Zach Clinton. What defines a life well lived? In this powerful conversation, Dr. Zach Clinton welcomes Tim Tebow to discuss identity, intimacy with Christ, and living a life marked by lasting impact. While many know Tim first as a Heisman Trophy winner, national champion, and NFL quarterback, his greatest mission has always extended far beyond football. From serving the “Most Vulnerable People” through the Tim Tebow Foundation to stepping into fatherhood with his wife Demi-Leigh and their daughter Daphne, Tim shares how identity, calling, and purpose have taken on even greater meaning in this season of life. At the center of this conversation is Tim’s new book, If the Tree Could Speak, a creative retelling of the crucifixion inspired by Luke 19:40. Through the perspective of the cross itself, Tim invites listeners to slow down and truly see the love displayed at Calvary—not as distant history, but as a deeply personal rescue mission. Together, Tim and Zach explore: Living with urgency without anxiety Leading with conviction anchored in love Seeing and valuing the people the world often overlooks Finding identity rooted in Christ instead of achievement The transforming power of the cross If you’ve ever felt unseen, dismissed, or forgotten, this episode is a reminder that the greatest declaration of love in history was completed for you.

Ohio State enters the 2026 season with one of the most experienced and accomplished quarterbacks in college football, yet Julian Sayin still feels underrated nationally. After leading the nation in completion percentage, finishing fourth in Heisman Trophy voting, throwing for 3,610 yards and 32 touchdowns, and earning the highest PFF passing grade in college football, Sayin is entering the critical second year of his development under Ryan Day. In this episode, we examine why Year 2 is often when elite quarterbacks make their biggest jump, what national analysts and NFL scouts are saying about Sayin, how Arthur Smith could unlock another level in Ohio State's offense, and why the Buckeyes may already have the best quarterback in the country. Topics include:

What happens when you reach the summit of everything you were told to want, only to find the view strangely empty? For Ricky Williams, that moment arrived in an NFL locker room, at the height of a career most people spend their lives chasing. He had the fame, the success, the money. And sitting there one ordinary day, a single question surfaced that he could not shake: is this really it? In this thoughtful and disarmingly honest conversation, Heisman Trophy winner and former professional footballer Ricky Williams joins Catherine to trace the journey that began the moment he walked away from the game. Two months after that question landed, he retired and started travelling the world, with no plan beyond a quiet certainty that there had to be more. What he found was not another title, but a calling. Today he is a professional astrologer, teacher and healer, and co-founder of Lila Labs. This episode is for anyone who has ever achieved what they were sure would make them happy and felt something still missing. For anyone who has run faster, worked harder and climbed higher, only to sense a gap between how their life looks on the outside and how it feels on the inside. A Map, Not a Prophecy Ricky is quick to dismantle the idea that astrology is about predicting the future. For him it is something far more practical: a GPS, a navigation system for the moments when we feel lost and cannot work out where we are going. A birth chart, he explains, is not a script that dictates what will happen on a given date. It is closer to epigenetics, a map of potentials that lie dormant until our environment brings them to life. His approach is refreshingly human. He does not call what he does readings; he calls them conversations. He begins not with the chart but with what the person in front of him is actually saying, then holds up a mirror so they can see themselves a little more clearly. The chart, in his words, is a growth document. We never outgrow it, because it describes a trajectory rather than a fixed identity. Made Of, Made For Much of the conversation explores the quiet ache so many high achievers know well: looking successful while feeling disconnected within. Ricky suggests the first step to closing that gap is simple honesty, admitting that something feels off. From there, the chart can reveal which parts of us are struggling to find expression. His most useful idea may be the strongest planet. Rather than fixating on sun signs, he looks first at the planet carrying the most weight in a chart, because it points to what we have to offer the world. For Ricky, that planet is the moon. Once he recognised that his gift was his sensitivity, his caring and his nurturing, he says his life became immeasurably easier. As he puts it, what we are made of has a great deal to do with what we are made for. The Questions That Open Doors Ricky shares two deceptively simple questions he returns to as daily tools. The first is, what else is possible that I have not yet considered? The second is, how does it get any better than this? Both work the same way, by quietening the part of us that braces for the worst and activating curiosity instead. Curiosity, he notes, tunes us into possibilities we would otherwise walk straight past, whether life is going well or falling apart. Key Takeaway Ricky does not believe people are broken. He believes we are all in a developmental process, which means there is always a developmental way forward. Self-knowledge, in his view, is the foundation of that growth. The more clearly we can see what we are made of, the easier it becomes to find ourselves, and once we find ourselves, it becomes far easier to be ourselves. Watch the full conversation on YouTube.

This podcast episode delves into the remarkable connection between Jim Thorpe and the illustrious Heisman Trophy winners, particularly focusing on the art of drop kicking, a skill that has largely vanished from contemporary football.

As we navigate through the annals of football history, we unearth the stories of remarkable athletes who excelled in this craft, including those who eventually received the Heisman distinction. By examining the evolution of the football itself and the changing dynamics of the sport, we illuminate the factors that contributed to the decline of the drop kick.

A profound exploration of the historical significance of college football stadiums, this episode delves into the remarkable stories of three iconic venues and their namesakes. Each stadium is not merely a structure of brick and mortar but rather a monument to individuals who have transcended the realm of sports to become legends in their own right. The discussion begins with Michi Stadium, named in honor of Dennis Michi, a pioneering figure who laid the groundwork for the Army football program. Michi's unwavering determination in the face of institutional skepticism regarding the sport culminated in the establishment of a program that would foster camaraderie and resilience among cadets. His untimely sacrifice during the Spanish-American War immortalized him in West Point lore, ensuring that his legacy would forever resonate within the walls of Michi Stadium. The discourse then transitions to the illustrious Nile Kinnick Stadium at the University of Iowa. Kinnick was not only a Heisman Trophy winner but also a heroic fighter pilot whose life was tragically cut short during World War II. The narrative recounts how the student body, in a heartfelt tribute to Kinnick's contributions to both football and the military, voted to honor him through the renaming of the stadium. This act of remembrance underscores the deep connection between sports and national pride, encapsulating the essence of Kinnick's legacy, which continues to inspire generations of athletes and students alike. Lastly, the episode pays homage to Bobby Dodd Stadium at Georgia Tech, a venue that serves as a testament to Dodd's revolutionary approach to coaching. Dodd's philosophy emphasized the enjoyment of the game, contrasting sharply with the militaristic training prevalent during his time. His commitment to player welfare and innovative strategies led to a remarkable record and an enduring legacy that transformed the landscape of college football. Each of these stadiums is a living tribute to the indelible impact of these remarkable individuals, whose stories continue to inspire and shape the ethos of American football. Through these narratives, we gain a deeper understanding of the rich tapestry of college football history, celebrating the men who have made it possible.

If you’ve ever felt unseen, dismissed, or forgotten, this episode is a reminder that the loudest declaration of love in history was completed for you.Links: Find Out More About Tim: https://timtebow.com/ Find Out More About the Tim Tebow Foundation: https://timtebowfoundation.org/ Purchase Tim’s Newest Book, If the Tree Could Speak, Here: timtebow.com/tree Purchase Tim’s Book, Look Again, Here: https://shorturl.at/JFL2B Follow Tim on Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/timtebow/ Find Clinically Excellent, Distinctively Christian Counseling or Coaching Today: https://christiancareconnect.com/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

“Is it ever enough… or are we always waiting for the next breakthrough, the next voice, the next reason to hope?” We found ourselves in an unexpected place for this episode: talking about Multiple Sclerosis (MS) through the lens of the NFL Draft. Of course, the #1 overall draft pick and Heisman Trophy winner Fernando Mendoza was making lots of headlines, but the stories went way beyond his leadership on the football field. Mendoza also was gaining attention for championing efforts to raise awareness and funding for research to end MS, the disease which his mom, Elsa, has lived with since 2008. So when a high-profile moment shines a spotlight on MS, whether it's with the #1 NFL draft pick or a celebrity diagnosis, it raises a bigger question: What do we actually want from that attention? Visibility definitely opens the doors for MS advocacy and research, but it can also create comparisons that don't reflect the reality of living with MS. As with everything in MS, there is more than one answer. In this episode, we explore the complicated mix of MS awareness, expectations, frustration, and hope that comes with seeing Multiple Sclerosis represented in the public eye and across media. We talk about: The impact of celebrity MS stories on awareness and perception Why increased visibility doesn't always lead to a cure for MS How different voices shape the narrative around chronic illness and disability Why “control what you can control” matters when living with MS We also reflect on how far the MS community has come—from just a few disease-modifying therapies to more than two dozen today—and why, even with that progress, it still can feel like we're waiting.

CB and Clay come into this podcast broken and ill. Diego Pavia goes undrafted despite finishing as the Heisman Trophy runner-up. We catch up on the NHL and NBA playoffs. Embiid leads the 76ers on a historic playoff series comeback against the Celtics.

Following the conclusion of spring practice, this segment highlights the transition into the "talking season," where college football coaches and athletic directors embark on caravan tours to engage with fans and donors. The announcer reflects on the current state of the sport, noting that news regarding players during this period is often negative since they are away from the direct supervision of their coaching staffs. Amidst this backdrop, the segment shifts focus to the career of Diego Pavia, the Vanderbilt quarterback who was recently named the SEC Offensive Player of the Year and received the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award. Despite Pavia not being selected in the NFL draft, the announcer argues that his collegiate legacy is secure, positioning him as perhaps the greatest offensive player in Vanderbilt’s history. Coach draws on his personal history to provide context, sharing his roots in Oklahoma during the 1950s and 60s when college football was the primary focus due to a lack of local professional teams. He recounts his first college game in 1964 and his own playing days at Vanderbilt in the late 1960s, using these memories to emphasize that college awards are distinct honors independent of professional prospects. By comparing Pavia’s impact to legendary figures like Gayle Sayers and highlighting the respect Pavia has earned from former players, the segment reinforces the idea that the Heisman Trophy and other collegiate accolades serve to honor excellence within the campus game specifically. The discussion concludes with a reminder that Pavia's contributions will be remembered by the Vanderbilt community for years to come, regardless of his professional status.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Matt Coleman returns to the Bench after a long hiatus to team with Tako in a game facing Eric Walling and Josh Snyder.In the first quarter, one team rushes into an answer that may have cost them a question, but at least nets a clear joke opener about Alberto Del Rio, Dennis Pitta, and Plácido Domingo walking into a bar. In the 2nd quarter, Tako accurately points out that there isn't much to get out of a Drysdale. One team again invents old-timey baseball names, starting with good ol' Tungsten Arm Demetrius Lloyd.

Last year at this time, the 2025 LSU baseball team was rounding into post-season shape as the Tigers charged to the school’s eighth national championship in June. This year’s 2026 LSU baseball team (ranked #2 in the preseason) lost its ninth straight SEC contest on Sunday after being swept by Mississippi State in Starkville.  It marked the first time LSU has lost nine SEC baseball games in a row at any time in the school’s long and decorated history dating back to 1933. The Tigers are 24-21 on the year.  LSU is only 6-12 in the very difficult SEC.  Only South Carolina (5-13) and Missouri (3-15) have a worse conference record through Sunday’s games. Eight wasn’t enough for LSU at Mississippi State over the weekend LSU scored eight runs in each of its three straight losses at Starkville, MS last weekend.  In each game, the Tigers got off to a fast start.  Unfortunately, the later innings saw the Tigers’ pitching falter while the offensive bats struggled against a talented Mississippi State bullpen. LSU dropped Friday’s opener 10-8 in 11 innings.  Saturday night’s game had LSU bolt out to a 7-2 lead starting the seventh inning.  The Tigers lost 9-8.  LSU led Sunday’s finale 8-5 midway through the sixth inning before losing 13-8. Mississippi State improved to 34-10 on the year and 10-8 in the SEC. The Bulldogs are part of a 5-way logjam for fourth place in the SEC.  Mississippi State is tied with Auburn, Florida, Ole Miss, and Oklahoma at 10-8 in the league. LSU has suffered through a number of key personnel losses in recent weeks.  Coach Jay Johnson can only do so much when his pitchers are getting hammered nightly and the Tiger bats go cold at the most inopportune moments. LSU fans who already booked hotel rooms for Omaha’s College World Series in June might need to be on the lookout for another team to root for if they still go to Nebraska. At least for the year 2026, the defending champions of NCAA Division I college baseball are toast. Vanderbilt QB Diego Pavia went undrafted by the NFL last weekend Diego Pavia single-handedly made Vanderbilt football interesting to watch for the past two seasons.  His ability to scramble, run, and/or or pass kept SEC defenses off balance and the Commodores in the game. The Vandy quarterback (generously listed at 6’0” by the school) helped the Commodores improve from 2-10 in 2023 to 7-6 in 2024.  Vanderbilt posted a school record 10-3 season in 2025. Diego Pavia played with an incredible and very infectious confidence on the field during his two seasons with Vanderbilt.  He finished in second place in the Heisman Trophy voting last year.  Despite being relatively short by college QB standards, Pavia remained confident he would be drafted by an NFL team last weekend. Diego Pavia’s belief in himself has gone a little over-the-top at times.  His ego can block a bit of reality.  Vanderbilt’s offense was wisely structured to take advantage of the quarterback’s skills.  NFL teams want their incoming quarterbacks to fit into the head coach’s system. As his final season ended, Diego Pavia morphed another Johnny Manziel type of personality. You might remember that Texas A&M’s “Johnny Football” won the Heisman Trophy in 2012. Johnny Manziel was known for his personal confidence and arrogance (and off-field substance abuse).  It worked against him as a professional football player.  Selected in the first round by the Cleveland Browns, “Johnny Football” started just eight games and went just 2-6 over his two NFL seasons. The NFL combine measured Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia at 5’9” tall.  He would become the shortest quarterback in the NFL this year. Seven rounds and 257 names were called last weekend in Pittsburgh at the NFL Draft. Diego Pavia wasn’t one of them.  He became the first Heisman Trophy finalist to go undrafted since 2013. The good news is that Diego Pavia was signed as a free agent by the Baltimore Ravens on Tuesday.  That team only had two quarterbacks on the roster.  Pavia will have a decent chance to become an NFL back-up QB if he performs well during training camp and in preseason games. Texas Tech’s very expensive transfer quarterback is in deep trouble for gambling Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson told the NFL Draft media last week that he turned down a $6 million NIL offer to stay at Bama for his final year of eligibility. Instead, Simpson gambled on his NFL chances.  To the surprise of many (including me), Ty Simpson was selected with the 13th overall pick in Round 1 by the Los Angeles Rams. One sports site reported that Ty Simpson’s first NFL contract will be worth $24 million over his first four years with the Rams. Yes, that’s the same $6 million that Alabama allegedly offered. Had Ty Simpson been drafted as the last selection of the first round (#32 overall), he would be slated to make an estimated $16 million over four years. Texas Tech University in Lubbock has very wealthy athletics backers who have been funneling millions of dollars into the Red Raiders’ NIL cooperative. Last season, Texas Tech effectively outbid other prominent schools to sign several key transfer players.  It culminated with the Red Raiders going 11-1 in the regular season and playing in the first round of the College Football Playoffs. Texas Tech recently opened its NIL wallet to sign University of Cincinnati transfer quarterback Brendan Sorsby for a reported $5 million next season. Sorsby started his college career at the University of Indiana prior to transferring to the Cincinnati Bearcats last year. Brendan Sorsby’s lone season with Cincinnati had him tossing 27 touchdown passes with only five interceptions.  He had been one of the most heavily recruited players in the NCAA Transfer Portal a few months ago. On Monday, Texas Tech announced that their new $5 million quarterback (who hasn’t played a down in Lubbock) had checked himself into a gambling treatment program. Reports surfaced that Brendan Sorsby has a history of betting on college football games.  That includes games involving Indiana (to win) while he was on that team as a freshman. Former LSU wide receiver Kayshon Boutte just completed his third year playing for the New England Patriots.  Boutte published a lengthy report in January, 2026 detailing a period where he was heavily involved with online sports gambling. Kayshon Boutte claims to have lost $90,000 gambling involving thousands of wagers during a period at LSU where he was rehabilitating from a severe ankle injury.  He was arrested in January, 2024 (a year into his NFL career) as part of an online gambling investigation.  The charges were dropped six months later. The ex-Tiger’s fascinating PG-13 rated story does have a positive ending and is worth the read (click here). Kayshon Boutte believes that most college athletes who get involved in gambling are “going through something.”  He added, “Don’t give up on them. Maybe they just need some help.” The NCAA is now investigating Texas Tech transfer quarterback Brendan Sorsby for gambling allegations. Current NCAA rules call for significant punishment if a college athlete wagers more than a cumulative total of $800 or more. Based on Sorsby’s voluntary check-in for gambling addictions, it’s safe to say that he is above the $800 threshold. Sorsby could lose his final year of college eligibility.  Pro scouting reports indicated that Brendan Sorsby had a good chance to become a first round NFL draft choice next April. All of that could be in jeopardy now. Texas Tech will (of course) spend whatever money is necessary to cut a deal with the NCAA to give their $5 million transfer quarterback Brendan Sorsby a chance on the field this fall.  Voluntarily entering a gambling addiction treatment program could go a long way to help his chances with the NCAA. Online gambling (all types including sports betting) has become epidemic.  Colleges report that 75% of all students gambled at least once during the last year.  Nearly 20% gamble weekly or more frequently. Let’s hope that Texas Tech’s Brendan Sorsby (much like former LSU wide receiver Kayshon Boutte) can turn things around soon and help others going down that same path.

-Pavia was a player that many adored throughout the year at Vanderbilt for his impressive play, but then he kind of became a problem with theway he handled the Heisman Trophy ceremony and social media posts-Pavia went through the draft process without an agent and became the first Heisman Trophy finalist not drafted since Jordan Lynch (NorthernIllinois) in 2014. Ouch. And, as of the making of this rundown early Sunday afternoon, he still hadn't signed with a team as an UDFA.Our Sponsors:* Check out Hims: https://hims.com/EARLYBREAKAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
