I met Jake through my sports media platforms when he was coaching high school football here locally in Idaho. Today, through this interview, I learn about his story on how he got to where he's at and what helped shape him in his journey. Through our conversation we'll learn about his business at In The Trenches Academy and what inspired this business plan.

This is an incredibly insightful interview. One I hope you all pay attention to. If you are a parent of an athlete, I would encourage you to listen and have your children listen as well.

Jake is a man of character who understands the importance of perseverance. Playing college football for a program that didn't win many games during his tenure there, yet he understood the importance of strapping up the pads and getting to work each and every day. This has transpired into his regular life in his full-time career(s) as well!

He's a well respected coach and trainer in the football scene too. Between coaching at the high school level and running In The Trenches Academy, he's inspiring young athletes to develop, improve, and have chances to play at the next level.

One of the great things about what he is doing with In The Trenches Academy, along with his business partner, is they are bringing linemen together to learn the techniques and skills that are necessary to make a difference 'in the trenches.' You see so many different skill position camps and training facilities, but there aren't as many places for linemen to go for the same types of training. It's unique and a great opportunity for those on the offensive and defensive lines to improve in their game!

Please join me in following and supporting Jake and his business by sharing this podcast with others around you. Give Jake a follow on his pages and make sure to hit that subscribe button on this platform.

The Gametime Guru - Daquawn "Cheetah" Brown: Origins of "The Squabble"
play

12/15/23 • 53 min

Former collegiate and professional defensive back, Daquawn "Cheetah" Brown, and creator of the hit 'celebration' "The Squabble" joins us today on the podcast!!

What an awesome, insightful show we have for you today!

We'll discuss Cheetah's football career which included playing for Snoop Dogg's SYFL as a youngster (and we get to hear how Snoop was a mentor for Cheetah in his early days), as well as being recruited by Mike Leech at Washington State. We talk about playing football in the Pac 12 as well as playing professionally and the life lessons he took from football.

The focus of the interview will be on the celebration dance that is taking the country by storm, called "The Squabble." If you follow sports, you've probably watched many athletes do this dance/celebration without even realizing what it was. Today we get to hear about the origins of the dance and hear how Daquawn started it with his friend (all from competing playing a video game) and how it's evolved since then.

This is a great opportunity to be educated and entertained at the same time!! We're looking forward to watching the rest of Daquawn's journey, so if you'd like to show your support for him, hit him with a follow on Social Media to see where he goes from here.

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!
