In this episode we caught up with West Virginia Men’s Basketball Coach Bob Huggins about his friendship with Charlie Spoonhour. We then caught up with Coach Steve Forbes from East Tennessee State University about his vision and philosophy for ETSU. We then wrapped up our Sports Psychology series with Becky Oakes and talked about the roles of state associations, national associations and school districts in the support and access of resources for the mental health of athletes and coaches. This has been a tremendous series full of valuable insights and information. My thanks to all who made it possible and we will revisit this series again in the future!

Next week, my Major League Baseball correspondents, Ethan Bryan and Don Louzader, are back in full SWING (yeah, I did). We will also have a very special guest Loren Broaddus and discuss his new book that is filled with baseball poetry, Joe DiMaggio Moves Like Liquid Light.
