Hard to believe he didn’t win the Mackey Award for the best tight end at some point in his three years at Notre Dame. I suppose sportswriters and coaches have their own biases and axes to grind. He will probably go very early in the first round of the NFL draft. At 265 pounds and […]

Last week ND played in the snow. This Saturday they go to Los Angeles to play USC. The rivalry began in 1926 and is considered one of the fiercest in college football. The rivalry game has been played every year from 1926 to the present, with the exception of 1943–1945 when the game was cancelled […]

It was a simple nine-yard play.

On the 49ers second possession, Raheem Mostert carried the ball for nine yards, then noticed something didn’t feel right. He went right off the field. Diagnosis: chipped cartilage in his knee. He opted for cartilage repair surgery, which ended his season at four snaps.

A look back at Week 1; Clemson dropped out of the top four, the first time since 2017 with a loss to Georgia. Georgia is ranked number 2 in this weeks AP Poll. The best game of the week was the Florida State versus Notre Dame game. An overtime game, but the highlight for me […]

The Notre Dame football program has joined the Atlantic Coast Conference for the 2020 season. They will be eligible to play for the ACC championship. Covid-19 turned the college football season upside-down. ND has played as an Independent so the decision to join the ACC is something new for ND. The ACC and ND had […]

First off, “In these uncertain times.” Now that that’s out of the way, what risk is being mitigated by the powers that be in college football? We are told repeatedly on radio and television and all manner of web sites that college football will return only if the season can be opened safely. It seems […]

Massive cheers erupted for President Trump and Melania as they arrived on the field at the Clemson vs. LSU College Football Game in New Orleans. Unfurling the American flag and the beautiful rendition of the National Anthem brought more cheers. No one taking a knee here!

Walk-Ins Welcome w/ Bridget Phetasy #29

Aaron Schmidt Believes in Extreme Accountability, Unrelenting Preparation, Ruthless Efficiency and Unapologetic Passion Explicit

00
Hosted by Bridget Phetasy

Aaron Schmidt grew up a military brat and met his wife, Kara Dawn, freshman year of high school when they were assigned to be lab partners. He talks wanting to be a college football coach but being the student manager of the UVA football team cured him of that desire, being raised Catholic, becoming a 7th grade English teacher, and then getting married, selling everything and hightailing it to LA because he and Kara could see the next 10 years of their lives mapped out before them. A series of odd jobs and a series of personal losses left him at loose ends until he found a passion to pursue in Gorucks that ultimately led him to join the Army Reserves as a psychological operations specialist two years before the cutoff for enlistment. He and Bridget have an honest and revealing discussion about being mission-oriented, the hard work of a successful marriage, overcoming loss and aimlessness, and the 4 tenets of his personal ethos.
