So much love and respect for BYU @kalanifsitake @Pouha91 and the people of Provo.

From the minute we parked, it was “Welcome to Provo,” “Good luck today,” “Go Cats.” People offered us food and drinks from their tailgates. Inside the stadium, same thing even ice cream at 2nd quarter . And their crowd was electric

I sat in ADA seating with my father in law and he was wearing his Fifita #1 jersey. People constantly checked on him and treated him with nothing but respect, even when Arizona made a play. They probably thought i was his care giver, lol.

Made me think, this is what real competition should look like. Welcome people into your home, treat them with respect and grace, then when the ball is kicked off, try to knock each other’s heads off.

We hosted our first league games Sunday , six games from 9AM–7PM. I told our staff: make everyone feel welcome. If someone genuinely can’t pay at the door, let them in. Let them watch their kid.

If we want to change the culture at the high school and college level, it starts in youth .

And I don’t think it’s a coincidence faith is at the center of BYU’s culture. Jesus welcomed everyone to His table.

Compete hard. Cheer loud. Want to win BAD. But still love people.

Appreciate the love , Provo.

In the spring of 2018, a running back from Fontana, California sat down with every offer he had ever received.
​
It was a short meeting. Half a scholarship. That was the market's entire opinion of him.
​
He said no, and walked on at BYU — unpaid, unranked, unrequested.
​
It got worse before it got better. His second year, the staff moved him to linebacker. When a program moves you to the other side of the ball, it is telling you something about the depth chart.
​
He listened politely. Then he moved back.
​
In 2021 he ran for 1,601 yards — the most in school history in a single season — and co-led the entire nation in rushing touchdowns. Second-team All-American. Bowl MVP.
​
Draft night, the league made him wait until pick 151.
​
As a rookie he ran for 1,035 yards, led his team in rushing, and made the All-Rookie Team.
​
His reward arrived the following April: his team spent the No. 8 overall pick on a running back.
​
Most careers end quietly right there. His did not.
​
Four seasons as the backup. Forced missed tackles on more than 30 percent of his carries — top of the league's physicality charts. Last season, a career-high eight touchdowns. As the second option.
​
In March 2026, the window opened and the first agreement reported anywhere in the league was his: two years, Arizona.
​
At the podium he kept it to one sentence: they believe in me, so I believe in them.
​
One month later, the Cardinals used the third overall pick in the draft — on a running back.
​
Read that again. The exact story that buried him in Atlanta, restaged in the desert, with an even higher pick.
​
Training camp opened this week in Arizona.
​
And per the Cardinals' own reporting, the first running back taking the field with the first-string offense — the current RB1 — is not the third overall pick.
​
It is the kid who was worth half a scholarship. The walk-on they once moved to linebacker. The backup who never once ran like one.
​
His name is Tyler Allgeier. Number 22, Arizona Cardinals. Eight years from half a ride to the front of the huddle — and he never changed how he runs.
​
Now you see the whole picture.

[Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes]

Every person living in a western nation needs to listen to every word of this

Katherine Berbalsingh went to the University of Oxford and is Headmaster at Michaela Community School in London, UK

She PERFECTLY explains the mass indoctrination into the narrative of oppressor and oppressed, and of hating White People

I will write only some of this out because it’s very important, however you should listen to it so you can hear the passion:

“The culture shift comes from what children learn at school and online. Ask any young person what history they learned at school, and they’ll tell you, Hitler. Ask them what else? Slavery. Ask them what else? American civil rights.

In fact, what little they know of history will be all about Black and brown people fighting for equality against the white man, women fighting men for the vote, gay and trans people fighting for various rights. Our young people have been taught that history is simply one long story about various groups struggling under the oppressive dead white man.

— History is taught through an oppressor lens. The triangular slave trade, white men held the power. What about Britain ending the slave trade? More than a quick mention, if at all? Mm, no.

What of the Arab slave trade that lasted 3 times as long as the triangular slave trade? Mm, no.

Okay, so GCSE history in Britain is often taught as migration through time, so the idea that Britain has always been a land of immigrants is embedded in our children’s heads. Most schools would prefer to concentrate learning about the tiny number of Black people who existed in Tudor England over a thorough analysis of England’s break from Rome.

— Not to mention weeks on King Mansa Musa of Mali because he was a Black Muslim. His bearing on British institutions, laws, and faith is nonexistent. And the fact that he is said to have been the richest man in history, thanks in part to his massive slave-owning society, is a detail somehow that teachers rarely ever teach.

But it isn’t just our schools. It’s our general culture too. Take your kids to a museum or an art gallery in any Western country, and you’ll find the same narrative.

As an example, when learning about aviation in London’s Science Museum and the extraordinary feat that is man making massive machines move in the sky, a write-up on the wall explains that women and Black people were historically barred from aviation schools and the military. Similarly, James Watt, the man who invented the steam engine and is considered the founder of the Industrial Revolution, has a write-up on the wall explaining that his early career involved slave trafficking, with a bonus analysis of the whole of Britain’s complicity in the slave trade.

They flatten the entire human story and all of its complexities into the narrative of oppressor and oppressed, leaving young people unable to see the world in any other terms.”

We have to end the mass indoctrination

Yes AJ is talented.
But honesty I think he is the best superstar TEAMMATE I think I’ve ever seen in college.
So many kids of this caliber would just coast through college till the NBA.
This dude is playing 40 a night.
Hyping up all his teammates. Breathing confidence into them.
Yes he is a superstar talent.

But he is a superstar person and teammate

The life of a millennial:

- Graduated into the Great Recession

- Entry level jobs required 3 years experience

- Pensions replaced by the 401k

- Promoted at work meant a 2% raise & 200% more responsibility

- Felt stability in life then a pandemic

- Highest inflation in 50 years deleted pay raises

- Home prices doubled overnight forcing permanent renters

- Childcare costs 1 month of rent

- Juggling aging parents, young kids, burnout from work & the cost to live

- AI causing mass layoffs during peak earning years

@travishansen24 This is really cool! I am now insanely jealous of all the future Marriott School students that have this as an option.

[Travis Hansen @travishansen24]

This fall, we’re launching a new course in partnership with the BYU Marriott School of Business:

The Business of Sports Management – Front Offices, GMs, and ADs

A class focused on how organizations are actually built.

Over 28 sessions, we’ll break down:
• How sports organizations operate as firms
• League structures, governance, and compliance
• Roster construction and talent markets
• Scouting vs analytics in player evaluation
• Contract structure and incentive design
• Salary caps, payroll constraints, and budgeting
• Valuing players and assets
• Revenue models and financial sustainability
• Private equity in college athletics
• Leadership styles of successful GMs and ADs
• Culture, alignment, and succession planning
• Media pressure, crisis management, and reputation risk
• NIL, agent dynamics, and ethical conflicts
• Career pathways into front offices

And we’re bringing in real operators:

NBA and NFL executives.
College athletic directors.
Head coaches.
Cap specialists.
Private equity leaders.

Students won’t just study sports — they’ll study decision-making under pressure.

Because front office leadership is about more than talent evaluation.

It’s about:
Capital allocation.
Risk management.
Incentive design.
Organizational alignment.
And character.

Sports are simply the most public laboratory for leadership in the world.

Grateful to partner with Colby Wright on this!

Excited to help train the next generation of builders — whether they enter sports, private equity, or any high-performance organization.
