In one of our most inspirational episodes ever, SMU Offensive Analyst Herschel Sims joins us to share his story of pain, regret, and redemption. As a senior at Abilene High School (TX), Coach Sims was ranked as one of the top running backs in the nation before committing to play football at Oklahoma State. He was kicked off of the team after a promising freshman season and from there his life and journey through the game of football took several dramatic turns that ultimately led him back to his hometown of Abilene where he finished his playing career at Abilene Christian University. Today, Coach Sims tells his story and shares the lessons he learned as a young man and highlights the coaches who were there for him in his darkest moments.
