Husky Talk is back with hell of a guest, former UConn Linebacker @uc45official. We were teammates and I did not know his story, learning about what he is doing now is really special. Watch the episode, it's an amazing journey. a true story of resilience and success. Cedric grew up in Virginia and didn't play football until he was in 8th grade. He played in the backyard but never had an opportunity to play as a youth and fell in love with the game when he finally was able to put pads on. Cedric played at one of the best high schools in Virginia, but the staff was not as proactive about sending their kids to play college football. Not being offered out of high school despite incredible statistics, he went to Lackawanna Junior College, one of the top JC programs in the country. Cedric continued to dominate and in 2001, with Nick Graby, @ezracarey all came to @uconnfootball from Lackawanna College, making an impact. Coach @re122198 always believed in Junior College players who. Coach Edsall and Coach @coachtoddorlando changed Cedric's life. He worked Construction before taking a leap with his Entrepreneural spirit and started his own company in New Haven, Above Average Transportation. They provide underprivileged kids with rides they normally would be without. They have contracts with schools and different groups supporting kids to participate in sports or any club, which has made a tremendous difference in the community. Go to their website at https://aboveaverageservices.com to see the services offered. Cedric runs a Non-Profit Organization called the Future Leaders Academy. They work with adolescents on building life skills and developing leadership qualities. Cedric has a family of his own and is truly a remarkable person who always gives back. It was a heartwarming episode, and he is doing God's work. Thank you @procyon_partners with President @seanjrabinowitz, thank you @thefinchfirm with Pete Finch, thank you @dynamichp_llc with @andre_dixon2, thank you @greenstreetfamilyoffice with Ronel Jumpp and thank you @trenchmobusa with @juliustrenches for being outstanding sponsors.

All new Husky Talk with UConn Football legendary DB and Captain Kevin Bannister. Being able to have Kevin and Robert Belcuore on in the same week, two top defensive players in UConn Huskies history is gold. Kevin was born in Shelton and played in Danbury. He tells some amazing stories about growing up and his career at UConn. Playing for defensive coordinator, "the round man" Greg Williams and head coach Tom Jackson. He talks about the dominant secondary they had, and opponents would feel pain the next day after playing UConn. Kevin was gracious in giving a ton of credit for his success in life after football to Beverly Sims who took care of thousands of football players during her time. He praised her for getting Kevin started with a job working in insurance and it turned out to be the best career for him. He has achieved success, provided an incredible life for his family, and is beyond thankful Bev took care of him. A great episode where you will laugh and listen to an amazing story of Kevin Bannister, who truly bleeds blue, on and off the field. Procyon Partners is our longest, tenured sponsor of Husky Talk.

All new Husky Talk with an UConn Football legend who could be a professional storyteller for a living, because he had me rolling, former Defensive Linemen Robert Belcuore. A description will not do this episode justice. I met Robert Friday night before the bowl game and was excited he came to my event. A badass player, who knocked the hell out of anyone with the ball, he was a force on defense. Tough as nails, he could play 85 snaps a game, along with special teams. Held single season records for tackles at 85, sacks at 11 that lasted many years. A true character who has gone on to success after UConn. It was incredible to meet so many amazing UConn Alumni in Boston. We plan to keep in touch and do another episode with his good friend, also a legend, Brian Kozlowski! Thank you, Robert, for being the definition of toughness and paving the way for us to make it to D1 FBS. Procyon Partners is our longest, tenured sponsor of Husky Talk.

All I can say is this was the most powerful, impactful. Husky Talk I have ever done. Samuel Dorvil is a walking, talking, miracle who is wise beyond his years. Probably the most amazing life story I have ever heard, Sam is destined for greatness and has already achieved more than most will in a lifetime. I knew about Sam before the interview but I didn't really know him on a personal level. He blew me away with his stories of faith, careers, career changes, finding a passion in life for what you do and sticking with it. Sam helped me on a spiritual journey providing incredible advice from his own experiences, for that, I am forever grateful he went out of his way to provide guidance. This is an inspirational Husky Talk, and Sam is just a great human being. Instead of complaining, he goes out and makes changes happen through his actions. Sam has a wonderful family, with children of his own and he fosters as well. This is an episode worth its weight in gold. Procyon Partners is our longest, tenured sponsor of Husky Talk.

Husky Talk Returns with one of the greatest Linebackers in UConn Football History, Lawrence Wilson, AKA BAMA. The nickname was because he was the first UConn player ever to come from Alabama and boy did he sure play like it. Lawrence grew up in Tuscaloosa, Alabama and started playing football at the age of 6, when he was primarily a Running Back. When he got to high school in 10th grade, he was switched over to play LB on defense and the rest I would say is history. Bama was a speeding bullet, playing sideline to sideline, tackling anyone who had the ball. He came from an athletic family, so his father put together all his highlight films, Bama attended many college camps each summer in high school, but shockingly, he was not offered a single scholarship. Luckily, one of those films went to UConn and they offered him the next day after watching him dominate. It was not easy coming to the cold of Connecticut, but it was sure easy enough for him to make plays on the field. He was part of two Big East Championships in 2007 and 2010, also was in the only graduating class in UConn Football history, that went to 4 straight bowl games from 2007 to 2010. As a freshman, he was an All American, while his junior and senior years he was named 1st Team All-Big East for putting fear into his opponents. After being drafted in the 6th round and playing in the NFL several seasons, he is right back in Alabama where it all began. What a wild and crazy episode you want to catch!.

I am becoming a big fan of UConn Women's Track and Field Alumni. On Husky Talk, we had Dr. Audra Price Pittman as our guest. She was a delight to interview and was full of excitement! Audra grew up in Connecticut and was a tremendous athlete. She loved to run and took an interest in track. Being recruited heavily in high school, she committed to UConn because her mother worked there, and she also received a scholarship. Audra had an incredible career at UConn running indoor and outdoor track. I believe she also was on the cross-country team as well. She had a passion for art and was extremely talented. Audra finished her senior season as a Husky breaking the record in the 800 meters, which stood for 20 years and was truly a special accomplishment. After UConn, Audra received her Masters Degree in Baltimore and was actually an extra on my favorite show, The Wire, which aired on HBO. I watched the scene she was part of and loved that she had that opportunity. Eventually, Audra moved to Florida and received her PHD, Dr. Audra Pittman followed in her mother's shows and is a professor at SCAD. The Savannah College Of Art And Design is located in Georgia, as well as Florida, Dr, Pittman works at both locations, She is married to an attorney and has children of her own including a pair of twins. They are athletic like their mother and have a bright future. My hope is to do a podcast with the UConn Track Women with Keisha Cummings, Bethany Hart, Dr. Audra Pittman, and hopefully Dr. Trisha Bailey if she has time for another episode. All of the women are accomplished, successful, and polarizing. Procyon Partners is our longest tenured sponsor of Husky Talk. They are one of the top 50 fastest growing companies in the nation.

Husky Talk is back with former UConn Football Running Back who played 7 years in the NFL, Jordan Todman. A tough, physical runner with breakaway speed, who tore it up splitting time with Andre Dixon. They became the first UConn Huskies RBs to both rush for 1000 yards in the same season. Jordan grew up in Massachusetts and played at Dartmouth high school where he was a star playing both ways on offense, as well as defense. He was highly recruited and came to UConn to have a chance to play early and they wanted him as an RB on offense which is where he wanted to be. Jordan's career at UConn came and went very fast it seemed. He played as a true freshman, as a backup to Donald Brown who was a 1st round draft pick by the Colts. Then things took off his sophomore and junior seasons, teaming with Andre Dixon. In 2010 he rushed for over 1600 yards, averaging 5 yards a carry and scoring 14 Touchdowns, leading UConn to a Big East Championship. With that accomplishment, the Husky's played in their first BCS Bowl, going to the Fiesta out in Arizona. After his dominance in college, he had done it all and Jordan declared early for the NFL draft. He spent 7 years in the NFL, which is very hard to do as a RB. He ran hard, his speed never left him, he played on special teams, and carving out a nice career for himself. Currently Jordan is the RB coach, Run game coordinator at Limestone University, a division 2 school where he came into a program in shambles and helped to turn it around. They went from 0-9 to 8-3, head coach is former Jets WR Jericho Cotchery and they have an amazing staff. Jordan coached Tre Stewart who moved up to Jacksonville State, now in the top 10 in Rushing and scoring in the country. This season he coaches Kevin Lalin who rushed for 1000 yards and was All Conference. In Jordans 3 seasons, he has coached three RBs who have rushed for over 1000 yards. If you have interest in Limestone College, a division 2 school in South Carolina, email Jordan at Jatodman@limestone.edu especially if you are from Florida.

A Husky Talk over a year in the making, I finally got to interview Former UConn star offensive tackle and a big brother to me when I was a freshman, Mike Sasson. We went long but it was worth every second, when you get to spend time with a comedian, you take advantage of it! A description will not due this episode any justice. Mike was beyond hilarious and is a fantastic storyteller. You hear how he ended up at UConn, his time playing all over, center, guard, and tackle. He was a 36-game starter and one of the best offensive tackles in the ECAC on the 1998 UConn team which is still the best in school history, Life after UConn, going to broadcasting school, having his own sports show, working for WFAN on radio, and a seasoned podcaster. Mike found his true talent in comedy and has worked as a comedian for 12 years. Living in LA now, he looks phenomenal, and you can see why he is amazing at making people laugh. Mike was a mentor to me when I was a freshman, he was patient, understanding and took time to teach me different techniques. I struggled and was considering leaving, Sasson, Burton, Jamie Harper, Corey Derfuss, Mark Campoli, Steve Darby were the best group of guys. Sasson and Burton really helped, watched over me, I will forever be grateful. Procyon Partners is our longest tenured sponsor of Husky Talk.

All new Husky Talk with former UConn Track & Field / Cross Country star Keisha Cummings. She ran on a club team as a 6-year-old and never stopped. Her coach was a tremendous influence in her career and life. Keisha grew up in Philadelphia and I was amazed she started running track at an early age. She was on a club team with a legendary coach all the way through high school. They would compete at college event's while she was in high school and Keisha's team would win. She started receiving scholarship offers as a 10th grader and then exploded when she was a junior. Keisha ran the 800 and we talked about the strategy involved. Depending on who she was up against, a group could box her in and Keisha had explosive top end speed. A fast start, and then for the last 150 to 200 meters she would turn on the jets to win. Keisha committed to the UConn Huskies, competed in cross country, plus indoor and outdoor track. She credits Lissa Bloom Jussaume and her family for having her on holidays when she was not able to get home. She loves Trisha Bailey and is beyond proud of all she has accomplished. We had such a great interview; I didn't realize we went 2 hours long. Working in Virginia she promotes love, and treating people with respect. She advocates for local black youth's, she helps people find housing, meals, Keisha started her own business because she preaches kindness and wants everyone to love each other. My description does not to this episode justice. Watch and you will be moved by how much Keisha cares. Procyon Partners is our longest tenured sponsor of Husky Talk.

A special Husky Talk with UConn Huskies Basketball Legend Kevin Freeman. Kevin played professionally overseas for 11 years before transitioning into coaching. He came back to UConn on Jim Calhoun's staff in the 2011-2012 season coaching and as the Assistant Director of Basketball Administration. Kevin stayed on after Calhoun retired and new head coach Kevin Ollie took over and became the Director of Basketball Administration. Freeman was an instrumental part of the Huskies winning the national championship in 2014. Coach Dan Hurley brought Kevin back in 2020 after he spent a few years on the staff at Penn State. Currently, he is an Associate Director of Athletics, along with being the Executive Director of The National C Club. The Club promotes UConn Alumni engagement with our current student athletes and graduates. Anyone who lettered in a sport is eligible to join the C Club and please go to their website at https://uconnhuskies.com/sports/2024/6/20/national-c-club.aspxto sign up. Kevin stressed the importance of utilizing our alumni to help our student athletes with job opportunities and career advice.

Kevin played early on Springfield, and then moved to New Jersey where he played on one of the best AAU teams in the country, Tim Thomas was one of his teammates. He visited UConn and committed to Coach Calhoun. His freshman class in 1996 that had a tremendous amount of talent. Coach Calhoun developed Kevin's group, they built more toughness, mentally and physically. Kevin said losing to North Carolina in the 1998 NCAA tournament was devastating. But Coach Calhoun came in the locker room and proclaimed that next year they would go to the Final 4. Having a truly magical season, the 1998-1999 team lived up to expectations, and Kevin was a force, along with having strong leadership, which led UConn to their first Men's Basketball NCAA Championship.

A Husky Talk that I have been looking forward to for months, one of my favorite players to watch, RB Andre Dixon. He played at a top high school in New Jersey at New Brunswick where he said football and the organization saved his life. After school, study hall was mandatory for all players, the weightlifting and finishing with practice. His team was loaded with Division 1 players, and after Andre dominated at UConn Football's camp, he committed to Randy Edsall. Redshirting as a Freshman, he rushed for 828 yards as a sophomore averaging 5 yards a carry while splitting time with eventual 1st round pick Donald Brown. He posted his best numbers his senior year when he and Jordan Todman both rushed for over 1000 yards in a single season. He averaged 4.6 Yards a carry and led the team with 15 Touchdowns. Andre was named player of the game in the 2010 Papa Johns bowl running for 126 yards and a TD. My favorite memory of Andre Dixon was watching him carve up Notre Dame's defense in 2009. He ran hard, he ran angry, through defenders, around defenders, over defenders for 120 yards on 14 carries, scoring the game winning TD in double overtime to shockingly upset Notre Dame at home. Andre bounced around playing professionally, starting as an undrafted free agent with the NY Giants. He spent time in the UFL and CFL before moving back to Connecticut and starting his own business Dynamic Human Performance in Hartford, CT. He has a great team with him to work with athletes interested in all sports. Andre also works with adults, anyone who wants to improve their fitness, he will take them on. https://dynamichumanperformance.com is the website and he has 5,000 square feet to make incredible gains.

All new Husky Talk with Julius Trenches , AKA Julius Williams, a former UConn Football versatile Defensive forces who was an outstanding pass rusher. Coming all the way from Georgia, his story is one of dedication, perseverance, and desire. Excited we connected and I was mesmerized listening to his story. From a family of 5 kids, Julias played on season as a youngster before being thrown to the wolves as a varsity player in 8th grade. He played at one of the smaller schools in Decatur, Georgia and was playing both ways early on. He saw action as a Tight End, Linebacker, before dominating as a Defensive End his senior year. Unfortunately, he tore his ACL and missed significant playing time but performed well at camps he attended the summer going into his senior season. Julius was being recruited by schools in the SEC and ACC before his ACL injury, he remembered coach Vinny Marino always called, never stopped recruiting him. On his visit in January, he met with coach Randy Edsall and committed to be a Husky. Hear is story as he started out as a Middle Linebacker, played as a freshmen and credits coach Todd Orlando, Alfred Fincher for teaching him the game on another level. After another ACL injury his sophomore year, he redshirted. Julius told me he watched more film on my good friend Uyi Osunde, which helped him become a dynamic force as a pass rusher. Logging 15 sacks, he could dominate offensive tackles in pass protection. Also, one a share of our first Big East Championship, played in the Meinke Car Care Bowl, Papa Johns Bowl, and left victorious defeating Buffalo in the International Bowl in Toronto. He played professionally for many years in the NFL, CFL, UFL, and AFL before being ready for the next chapter of his life. He started Trench Mob which runs camps all over the country, working with offensive defensive linemen.

A special Husky Talk with Joe Villipiano and Jeff Larson, two former walk-on UConn Football Players join the show to discuss the NCAA moving to 105 scholarships. Which will also be the roster limit, meaning that if teams are able to fully fund 105 scholarships, it will mean the end of having walk-on players on the roster. Joe and Jeff were incredible people, worked just as hard, if not harder than our scholarship players, with the same expectations of being on time for meetings, watching film, traveling to games and performing when their number was called. Jeffery did this while serving out country as well, which is even more impressive. We talk about NIL's, the transfer portal, and locker rooms missing out on great teammates if walk-on opportunities are taken away Procyon Partners is our longest tenured sponsor.

A Husky Talk that is worth its weight in GOLD, former All Big East Linebacker Moe Lloyd, who won a Grey Cup in his 5 seasons in the CFL, comes on the show. We have tried to connect several times, but Moe has an extremely busy schedule. Between coaching a state Championship team in Florida as a Co-Defensive Coordinator, being a sales specialist at a car dealership, and now getting into Real Estate after becoming licensed. His career on the field was spectacular, however I am more impressed with what he has done off it. Coaching, mentoring, helping kids from his time in Connecticut to now being in Florida. Truly an incredible person, I am so proud of him for all he has accomplished. Having 4 kids and being a great father. This was a special interview and when you hear his journey, you will understand why. Love you Moe! Procyon Partners is our biggest, longest tenured sponsor of Husky Talk.
