Today, we have a special guest, a passionate football enthusiast who's been deeply involved in the sport for years. Let's dive into his journey and insights. Can you start by telling us your age and a bit about your background?
Coach Phoneybadge1: I'm 27 years old. I grew up in Michigan but now live in Southern Tennessee.
That's quite a move! What brought you to Tennessee?
Coach PhoneyBadge1: I moved for work and a change of scenery. I work as an analyst at Frito Lay, and Southern Tennessee has been a great place to settle down.
Interesting. As a football fan, who is your favorite NCAA team and why?
Coach Phoneybadge1: My favorite NCAA team is Liberty. I love their fun, dynamic offense and the cool jersey combinations they have, especially the script helmets.
Liberty does have a unique style. What about your favorite major sports teams across the NFL, MLB, NHL, and NBA?
Coach PhoneyBadge1: In the NFL, I'm an Eagles fan. For MLB, I root for the Braves. In the NBA, I support the Heat, and in the NHL, I'm a Predators fan.
A diverse set of teams! You've been playing online football for quite a while. How many years has it been?
Coach PhoneyBadge1: I've been playing online football for 12 years now.
Impressive, so mainly Madded I am assuming. What made you pick your current team for this season?
Coach PhoneyBadge1: I thought it would be fun to play with a team in a smaller conference to get my feet wet. Plus, they have a fun offense with players like Salter and Cooley.
Pretty sure I know the answer to this question given your recent game stats but who would you say is the best player on your roster?
Coach PhoneyBadge1: Quinton Cooley is definitely the standout player on my roster.
There is no questioning that so far. How did you find out about the NDL League?
Coach Phoneybadge1: A friend of mine told me about the league, and I decided to look more into it.
What are your expectations for your team this season?
Coach PhoneyBadge1: I'm aiming for us to be conference champs.
A tough task given the legitimate coaches in the conference. Do you have any league rivalries or foresee any?
Coach PhneyBadge1: Yes, we have rivalries with Michigan, WKU, and MTSU.
Three tough teams to want to squabble with for sure. Outside of coaching a sim football team, what are your hobbies?
CoachPhoneybadge1: I enjoy attending sporting events, football recruiting, and four-wheeling.
That's a great mix. What's the best joke you have?
Coach Phoneybadge1: Michigan being better than Notre Dame. LOL
Good one! Thats sure to ruffle some feathers though. What's your earliest memory in life?
Coach Phoneybadge1: Going to my first college football game when I was 7.
There has got to be a good story behind that one to remember that far back. Do you have a favorite vacation spot?
Coach PhoneyBadge1: Somewhere up in the mountains alone. I like to do anything alone where there aren't many people around. I'm really an extrovert person.
Think you meant introvert there but I think we all get it. Lastly, anything else you'd like to share about yourself?
Coach PhoneyBadge1: My long-term goal is to be a scout or recruiter. I'm also a massive Notre Dame fan, born and raised.
We wont hold that against you. Thank you for sharing your journey and passion with us. Best of luck with your football season and your future aspirations!
