TQBD 162: Quarterbacks from Columbia University's Football Program

May 4, 2020

Today we were lucky enough to sit down with the 5 quarterbacks on roster at Columbia University. These guys were a lot of fun to have on and brought a lot of valuable information for parents and players who are striving to become college quarterbacks! 

Topics today include: 

• How the guys are handling COVID-19 and the obstacles they are facing during this quarantine period. 
• The schedule they face right now/ what a normal Spring looks like for the Columbia Football program. 
• What obstacles each of these guys faced and overcame their freshman year while learning to become a student athlete.
• " Becoming comfortable with being uncomfortable"
• The dynamic of the quarterback room.
• 1 guy can play, how this plays out between the entire quarterback room. 
• Accepting injuries and the experiences they faced outside of the simple physical aspect. 
• The idea of leadership and how they are handling it with multiple guys playing over the last 2 years. 
• Each players idea of leadership and what separates good leaders from great leaders. ( The docs shake up their answers :) ) 
• What "Sacrifice" means to each of these young men and the things they have had to sacrifice to get where they are! ( Great stuff here!) 
• The guys answer tough questions in the quarterback room and they are not allowed to vote for themselves... tune in! 

This was an awesome episode to record and we had a lot of fun putting it together! You guys need to tune into this one!
