The Gametime Guru - Episode 216: "Big T" - Thurl Bailey
play

10/08/21 • 46 min

Some may know or remember "Big T" Thurl Bailey as the man who was part of the 1983 National Championship team with North Carolina State, who was coached by Coach Jim Valvano. He was drafted in the first round of the NBA draft and played 12 of his 16 professional seasons in the National Basketball Association between the Utah Jazz and Minnesota Timberwolves organizations.

What most don't know however, is the fact that Thurl's basketball talents didn't necessarily come naturally. He had the passion for the sport and the dedication and willingness to get better, but he truly had to WORK at it to be where he's at.

Find out today on the show just how he was able to go from playing 2 seconds a game (the tip offs) in Junior High, to becoming a National Champion in College, to then playing 16 years as a professional (12 of which were in the NBA). It's truly one you want to pay attention to.

Major shoutout to my cousin John Elmer, who helped me land this interview with Thurl. John is a sports fan just like me. And when he was at his local gym working out, he went out of his way to communicate with Thurl who happened to be there too, and got him in contact with me! This interview wouldn't have happened without John's support and willingness to reach out for me! So for that I want to say thanks to John! Love ya man!!

I would love for all to check out Thurl's book, by going to:

https://thurlbailey.com/

I promise you one thing, after listening to this interview, you're going to see exactly why the people of Utah have embraced this man with open arms! He's a man of character, who is well-spoken and respectful to all! I've always had a respect for Thurl, but didn't truly realize how unbelievably impactful he was until I spoke with him!

Enjoy the interview!

Podcast Q&A

Why did you start this show?

I was sick of the 'mainstream sports outlets' who just were doing the same things over and over. Stats and analysis breakdowns. I wanted to create a show where we could learn about sports and see the parallels between sports and life and hear amazing stories.

What do you hope listeners gain from listening to your show?

My hope is that the listeners can see how sports translate to regular life. There are a lot of life lessons to be learned through sports, and through the stories of these individuals on this show, you can not only learn more about the sport they play, but get an in-depth look at what they've taken from their experiences for their businesses, life, relationships, and more.

Which episode should someone start with?

The way the show is structured allows you to start at any episode as they do not 'build' off each other. You can start with any of the interviews you'd like. We have a wide variety of athletes/sports figures that represent various sports. Spikeball professionals, to NFL Players, NBA Veterans, and more.

Which have been your favourite episodes so far?

So many awesome interviews, but Jerry Stackhouse was an awesome interview to learn about his incredible career in the NBA.

Which episode are you most proud of?

Eddie George, the former Heisman Trophy winner from Ohio State, to then becoming a successful NFL Running Back. I am proud of this episode because Eddie George was my all-time favorite player when I was a little kid.

What is your vision for your show?

I would love to continue building the show and growing the listener base more and more. I would also love to work with more amazing companies as sponsors of the podcast.

What is your favourite other podcast that isn't yours?

I love interview based podcasts. So "All the Smoke" is a phenomenal show as well as Knuckleheads and Podcast P with Paul George. The non-sports related podcast I enjoy the most is the Joe Rogan Experience.

How did you come up with the name for your podcast?

I'm the LEAST creative individual you'll meet, so the name of my show didn't come easy.. It took FOREVER for me to figure it out, but when it came to me, it was while I was at the gym on the treadmill.

Tell us a bit about yourself

I'm just a regular guy from Idaho who has a passion for sports. I was a former athlete, basketball, football, and boxing. I love competing and I love being around athletics. Best part of my life is my family! I have three children and an amazing wife!
