I’ve been working with and coaching HS athletes now for almost 14 years. During that time, Almost every young athlete says they want to be D1. My response has always been....are you sure? Most kids like the idea of playing D1 without ever understanding what it actually takes.
Today, we are talking with one of my best friends in the world - Coach Greg Harbaugh. Greg is the Co-Offensive Coordinator and quarterbacks coach at the University of Minnesota. He has worked his butt off through the ranks of D3 all the way up to where he is now making 7-8 coaching stops along the way.
Throughout the conversation, we go through what college coaches are looking for in players and what separates good, great and elite level players. We also go into what it takes to play in college at each level and what it truly looks like to be a college athlete.
I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did - buckle up for episode 7 of Unlocking Athletes.
