Ohio State vs Grambling Pre Game ShowOhio State enters this Week 2 matchup at Ohio Stadium riding a wave of momentum after a 14‑7 upset of top‑ranked Texas. The Buckeyes extended their streak of season‑opening wins to 25 and notched their seventh straight victory over a Top 10 opponent ([Land-Grant Holy Land][1], [Ohio State][2]). Their defense, under new coordinator Matt Patricia, continues to shine, with the linebacker trio of Arvell Reese, Sonny Styles, and Payton Pierce anchoring a dominant performance ([Land-Grant Holy Land][3]). On offense, freshman quarterback Julian Sayin impressed with a calm, turnover‑free debut despite modest yardage—126 passing yards on 13-of-20 attempts—and the run game still searching for rhythm ([Land-Grant Holy Land][1], [WTOP News][4], [921theticket.com][5]).Linktree: https://linktr.ee/AJLetsTalkSportsMeanwhile, FCS program Grambling State is off to a statement start after routing Langston 55‑7, led by transfer QB C'zavian Teasett's three‑touchdown performance and a defense that held the opposition to just 97 total yards and –32 rushing yards ([Land-Grant Holy Land][1], [WTOP News][4]). Yet, they face a steep challenge stepping up from an NAIA opponent to a powerhouse program and No. 1 team in the nation. Ohio State is a gigantic favorite—with some projections forecasting a win by nearly 60 points—and the matchup promises to be more about fine‑tuning and depth testing than suspense

“The other part is that he loves it. He doesn't miss. A ton of people are—to be cliche—talented, but they don't do the things to maximize their talent. So how is he there? Because he's doing everything to at least give him the chance to maximize his talent. Do we know it's going to be 1:42? No, we don't know that. We have no clue what it is… He's doing the things it takes to see how good he can be—and he loves finding out what that looks like.”My guest for today's episode is Chris Capeau, the coach behind one of the most remarkable performances in American track history. As the head distance coach at Northwest High School in Texas, Capeau found success with his middle distance programs. Even before that at other Texas high schools, he was a bit of a journeyman in coaching at various universities and learning from other accomplished coaches in the sport.But this summer, the spotlight found him after 16-year-old Cooper Lutkenhaus stunned the track world with a 1:42.27 in the men's 800m at the U.S. Championships. That time was a three second PR, a new U18 world record, the fastest time ever run by a high schooler, and the fourth fastest time by an American ever. More than that, it earned Lutkenhaus a spot on Team USA for the World Championships in Tokyo, making him the youngest man in history to compete at a global outdoor championships. It was a moment that defied logic, but it didn't happen by accident.Capeau has been building upon a strong foundation established by Cooper's parents. A former NAIA marathon standout and collegiate coach with deep experience in building programs, Capeau brings a thoughtful athlete-centered approach that prioritizes trust, patience, and long term development. That philosophy has now helped produce a once in a generation talent and has rewritten what we thought was possible for high school middle distance running.This conversation pairs well with our previous episode with Cooper. You can find it here. In this one, we try to make even more sense of the performance by speaking to the man who worked on making it happen day in and day out._____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠⁠@chris_j_chavez on Instagram⁠⁠Guest: Coach Chris CapeauProduced by: Jasmine Fehr |⁠ ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠Mentioned in this episode…Listen: Cooper Lutkenhaus Breaks Down His 1:42.27 800m At 16 Years Old To Make History, Qualifies For The 2025 World Championships + Goals For TokyoWatch: ⁠USATF Championships Men's 800m final⁠_____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Straight out of Bikini Bottom, Olipop's limited edition SpongeBob cans have arrived.

On this episode of The Jon Gordon Podcast, I sit down with Chad Busick, one of my top certified trainers who lives, breathes and shares the principles of championship teams. Chad interviews me as we do a deep dive into my latest book, The Seven Commitments of a Great Team, the journey that shaped it, and why these lessons matter for everyone looking to build something great together. Chad leads me through an honest exploration of what a true “championship mindset” really means, why it's not about chasing a trophy, but becoming the kind of teammate and leader who lifts up others and shows up with purpose, grit, and positivity, no matter the circumstances. I share parts of my personal journey, including the struggles with negativity that almost cost me my marriage and ultimately pushed me onto this path of teaching positive leadership. We go behind the scenes on the writing of Seven Commitments, touching on the coaches and mentors who inspired me, like the unforgettable Coach Richie Moran (whose words “teammates are forever” are at the heart of this story). Together we break down why valuing each other is the foundation of any great team, how individual goals and a shared mission fuel real success, and why staying positive, together, matters most when adversity strikes. You'll hear why these commitments have already struck a chord with so many coaches and business leaders, how simple frameworks like LIGHT and VALUE can unlock stronger teams, and why I believe this might be my most meaningful work yet. There are practical takeaways and authentic stories for anyone who wants to lead, connect, and get better, whether you're building a winning culture in sports, business, education, or at home.
