Coaches of the Round Table

Jon Leamy, John Hartley, John Roderique

In this episode, we have a coaches panel and play “out of the hat” as we drew random topics and present them to our experienced and knowledgeable panel.  Their answers to the questions signified their expertise and why they are all top of their game in their respective sports.  I love these panels because it reminds us how coaching is not just x’s and o’s, it is not just working with a team, it is building something.  It is building a concept and platform that is used to help shape and mold us.  My guests tonight know this inside and out.  Their accolades speak volumes, but the people that leave their programs better than they day they arrived is their real achievement.  Thank you to this valued panel:

Jon Leamy, Missouri State University Men’s Soccer

John Hartley, Greenwood Baseball, Midwest Nationals, 417 Juniors Volleyball, Hart to Hart

John Roderique, Webb City Football

Our next show we will have another coaches panel and explore their perspective on our topics “out of the hat”.

Brand Building in Athletics/NIL in the NCAA

Episode 216 -

In this episode, we welcome a special guest to our show, Frances Reimers, Founder and Owner of Firestarter.  Frances is a personal brand expert, PR and Social Media Strategist, Radio Host, Author, Speaker and Educator.  She is also the creative director and project lead, managing a team of professionals that help NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, MLS, NASCAR, and NCAA clients to expand their paid, earned, shared, and owned media opportunities. 

Frances Reimers

We discussed the importance of positive branding and promotions of athletes, coaches, and programs.  We then discussed the new NCAA legislation. 

From NCAA.org -

The board approved the areas for modernizing name, image and likeness rules for student-athletes. When approved by the NCAA membership, these rules would allow:

Compensation for third-party endorsements related to athletics, without school or conference involvement.

Compensation for other student-athlete opportunities, such as social media, new businesses, and personal appearances, without institutional involvement or the use of trademarks/logos.

The board emphasized that at no point should a school pay student-athletes for name, image and likeness activities.

This is a HUGE game changer and we explored it with Frances Reimers as she discussed the implementation and offered some valuable guidance on building a brand for athletes and coaches, including social media dos and don’ts. 

Next week, we will host a panel of college coaches about their viewpoints on this new legislation.

28.5 - Coaches Supporting Coaches

With every profession we need resources and support as we grow and develop.  To achieve longevity, it takes support from mentors and colleagues. The Missouri Basketball Coaches Association has launched a new support initiative for female coaches called 28.5 and tonight we explore how coaches, male and female, can support each other and encourage professional endurance. We speak with founder of 28.5 Cori Elms (current MBCA Class 2 State Champion and Coach of the Year) from East Buchanan and discuss the mission and logistics of this new program. 

We were then joined by a coaches panel to talk about the initiative and how they support one another, all coaches and professions can relate. My thanks to the panel:
