In this raw and revealing episode, Coach Will Muschamp—former head coach at Florida and South Carolina and longtime assistant to Nick Saban and Kirby Smart—joins Tim and Troy Green for a no-holds-barred conversation on leadership, grit, and what it really means to coach in today’s college football landscape.
Muschamp reflects on his journey from walk-on to team captain at Georgia, his rise through the coaching ranks, and the toll a high-stakes football career can take on family life. He shares why he still believes in tough, old-school coaching—even as the game shifts around NIL deals, the transfer portal, and tampering. With personal stories from the SEC, the NFL, and beyond, he opens up about being fired, rehired, raising kids through 13 moves, and stepping back from coaching to watch his son play.
This conversation is packed with honest reflections, hard-won wisdom, and a deep look into what makes a coach—and a man—last in one of the toughest professions out there. Whether you're a football fan, a coach, or just navigating your own life transitions, Coach Muschamp’s perspective will challenge and inspire.
Listen now to hear why, in a changing world, old-school coaching still works.
