Welcome to the Tatum Talk Show, where we expose the truth behind youth football, travel ball culture, NIL deals, and what really helps student-athletes succeed. In this powerful episode, Coach Derrick Tatum sits down with former NFL player and 7v7 coach Buck Fitzgerald to unpack the real challenges affecting today’s athletes — from toxic sideline behavior to parents living through their kids, to how NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) is shaping (and ruining) recruiting.
They discuss:
The broken 7v7 & travel ball culture 🏈
Why NIL isn’t helping as many athletes as you think 💸
How real development beats fast money
What coaches, players, and parents MUST do to succeed
Stories of players like Adonai Mitchell and Kyle Kennard 🌟
The mindset it takes to get recruited and go D1 📈
Whether you're a parent, coach, or young athlete, this episode will shift your mindset and prepare you for the road ahead.
