  • Good podcast but….

    Jake does a great job finding wonderful ADs to interview with great experiences and knowledge. However ALL QUESTIONS ARE THE SAME. Tap into some of the different experiences and aspects of being an AD. There’s so much left uncovered because all questions are the same. Jake even uses the same phrase “I like to word it as, who do you still hear…” it gets old.

Q: Can you share a real example of how the platform has helped a student-athlete find the right fit?

Bobby Whitson of Big Board Sports is on Toolbox EXTRA!
Q: What is Big Board Sports and what does it do for athletic directors and schools?
