From locker rooms to boardrooms - we’re your playbook for life in the NIL era.
Episode 3: Parents Be Wildin’
Every athlete dreams of making it big—but sometimes the biggest challenge isn’t the competition, it’s the parents. In this episode, Lee and Michael dig into the wildest stories of parents overstepping in recruiting, NIL, and youth sports. From sideline blowups to backroom deals gone wrong, we break down how these moves can derail an athlete’s future.
More importantly, we share what parents should be doing—building trust, teaching professionalism, and protecting opportunities instead of sabotaging them. With Lee’s legal expertise and Michael’s #MikesMoneyLine hot takes, this episode is equal parts cautionary tale and playbook for doing things the right way.
Why listen? If you’re an athlete—or the parent of one—this episode gives you the tools to avoid common mistakes, make smart decisions, and keep the focus where it belongs: on the game and the future.
