  • S1 Ep10: Christian Sengfelder
    Oct 10 2024

    This is it people! The final episode of the first season is here and I was fortunate enough to welcome a friend, basketball player, and the biggest professional I know, Christian Sengfelder. We turned back the clock and talked about our time at Fordham, his transition to a winning program and all the challenges he faced throughout that process. Following his successful college career Chris went on to play 6 years in the BBL, top league in Germany. To top it off, he became a huge part of the German national team. National team that has been on the rise these past few years and Chris has been there every step of the way. We also talked about the surreal experience at Eurobasket 2022 where Germany wasn't far away from winning it all. How important is it to know your role, be humble and play for your country without any personal agenda? Why is Gordon Herbert such a great coach? What was it like to play for Germany, in Germany, in front of thousands of fans?
    An hour long chat filled with stories from all levels of life and one recurring theme - the world is so small. Find out why, get to know Chris and enjoy the final episode of season one!

    The second to last episode of the first season is here and this time with another phenomenal female athlete. We took some time to reminisce about her college experience at Illinois and UNC, her first professional contract in Hungary which was a huge reality check and of course her outstanding journey throughout Spain. Ups and downs, fights, and a lot of basketball at the highest level. We also discussed her rise within the national team and the perks of an Under Armor athlete. Oh and of course some spicy rapid fire questions. If there was an episode you would not want to miss, it's this one!!!

  • S1 Ep7: Q & A's
    Sep 12 2024

    Episode #7 is not what you have been used to! I decided to shake things up and took the time to answer your questions! I must say there were some great ones which led to even better answers. An episode filled with stories from college, professional level but even the very beginnings of my career. I answered questions about my favorite coach, shared few stories from the most ridiculous practices I've experienced, reminisced about the time I was close to quitting basketball, addressed the rumor about my retirement and much more. Sit back, relax and listen to a short and sweet episode and perhaps get to know me a tad better.

  • S1 Ep6: Mike DePaoli
    Sep 5 2024

    Welcome back everyone! In this week's episode I had the honor of talking to an assistant coach from D1 basketball with over 18 years of experience. Mike DePaoli was an assistant coach during my time at Fordham and has since moved to Hofstra University where he continues having an impact on high level players. We had a lot to catch up on. We shared some hilarious memories from our time in the Bronx and did a little review of our 4 year span from the two perspectives - coach/player. A big part of the episode is devoted to the challenges that come along with the introduction of NIL (name, image and likeness). How much do get players paid? How does it effect each and every program? How has college basketball changed since? That and much more will be revealed in an episode that won't disappoint!
