Manage episode 299749748 series 2809336
On this week’s episode of the 3RIPLE 3HREAT podcast we have a special guest, Jim Yarbrough. Coach Yarbrough and Jermel had a stint at the College of Charleston. Jermel remembers Coach Yarbrough as a high energy coach, especially during game time!
They have a great conversation on the podcast about the evolution of the student-athlete.
The Valdosta State University team had not been to post-season in 23 years. As head coach, in his second year with the Blazers, the team went to the Sweet 16 of the National Tournament.
In addition to VSU, Coach Yarbrough was twice a finalist for National Coach of the Year. In 2005, he took the job at Southeastern Louisiana University where he served for 9 seasons becoming the second winningest coach in school history.
Tune into the 3RIPLE 3HREAT podcast to hear stories about student-athletes, for student-athletes and by-student-athletes.
