>> welcome back. we're talking about life after college sports and the role of college, university boards and students themselves in preparing athletes for the real world. john, you started an organization to help form athletes are education and career developments. how is that different from general career development and advice that is given to a non non-student-athlete. >> i think our focus is to get the student-athlete to realize that they're more than and to go there 365 years to show athletes they're much more than athletes. we like to use the term

lif life-lete. they're more than an athlete. we work one-on-one with the guys taking them through a pretty intensive process through career development workbook. we don't use the term career transition because i think everyone is in transition. we want to talk about development and keep their mind positive about the direction they're going. we take them through an intensive process to help them understand the value of the brand that they have. the fact that someone played at cal or depaul or played at georgetown, they need to be able to utilize that to navigate just like a general student would, and so we try to get them to engage in different ways. >> speaking of those navigational tools there are universities that are launching entire projects to help student-athletes to do that, one of them is notre dame.

and a lot in between. we could go to bill bradley, allen page, michael jordan, we can go down the line of what athletes have done but use that as resource. there are other athletes who have done things in a wide variety of field that they can use how they want to move forward post playing the game. >> we have 20 seconds. >> i would just like to say one thing to all athletes understand that you come from an unique situation. you've learned how to be motivated, take goals, take punishment, endure and create things out of thin air. forward. if anyone can tap into those qualities that made you an athlete, you can take those on the road and go anywhere. >> well said, my friend. a terrific discussion. in the meantime, waj and i will see you online. ♪
