Dawn Staley stood as tall as any 7 footer this weekend at the Final Four. After a tense interaction with Geno Auriemma, Staley showed her toughness, poise, & grace. Then, even more impressive @dawnstaley double down by praising Cori Close & UCLA after a blowout loss in the Final. In the adversity of defeat she showed Geno & us all what true leadership is. We should all take notes. @Thepivot Pivotal moments from #RCconfessionals #DawnStaley #GenoAuriemma #WomensBasketball #ThePivot

“When you grow up in Philly… it’s survival.”- @dawnstaley Dawn Staley is from North Philly. She jokes she grew up in the Burbs because she didn’t live in the high rises like her parents & siblings. It’s not about what she saw or live through, but what sports gave her. Shes a competitor, she never backs down, & that’s on full display now again in the Final Four! @ThePivot throwback with Dawn Staley! #ThePiovt #DawnStaley #FinalFour #SouthCarolinaGamecocks

“I was all of those things because I had him.” Once I got to college @charleswoodson was my favorite football player, but my cousin Garry Lewis was my idol. He was a big brother to me. He played at Alcorn State, was drafted by the Raiders, & I was EVERYWHERE with him! He told me I could be great, & more importantly taught me how. I’m not here today without him. I don’t think I’ve ever even told him… until today! Thanks to @contactdtm1 for asking: “Who were your sports role models?” @ThePivot on @Youtube. 3 Man Fridays #ThePivot #3manFridays #RoleModels #Podcasts youtu.be/7MdZ_v-g1WM

When my father died I lost the one guy who taught me about manhood.

You Asked. We answered. Sports, growth and hard truths. @Realrclark25 @FredTaylorMade @OfficialCrowder openly respond to the hard hitting questions sent in. youtu.be/7MdZ_v-g1WM

“Holy sh*t, these guys are really trying to put bets in with me”- @richkleiman Before Rich Kleiman dropped out of Boston University he accidentally became the town’s most prominent bookie. It was a chance encounter & a phone call that turned him into the go to guy to place your bets. The enterprise spread to other states. It all gave him an identity. College life was great to him! @ThePivot on @youtube & streaming platforms. #ThePivot #RichKleiman #BoardRoom #Bookie youtu.be/Sejt0oupO3M

What do we have here!?! 👏 One of the biggest compliments we hear from people when they meet us or are around us- “Wow, you guys really are the same in life as on the show.” We are who we are and it’s built an unbreakable bond. Best Co-Hosts nominee speaks to that and we don’t take it lightly…And when we set out to be more than Sports, it seems we are on our way because being selected as a finalist for Best Podcast Series out of the millions of podcasts is truly 🤯 Thanks for rocking with us- we love ya’ll! Awards are cool but true support and impact is the real 🏁 Head over to Webby Awards and run it up for us…🏆 thank you @thewebbyawards @Realrclark25 @FredTaylorMade @OfficialCrowder @alicialauren

“There was… this Halo around this man”.- Rich Kleiman on Jay Z @richkleiman’s career was always about seeing two plays ahead. So, there was no surprise when he was a producer on Jay Z’s doc “Fade to Black”. The lessons he learned there were invaluable. At the time record labels were everything. It wasn’t just the music, but a brand. Everyone wanted to be down. Rich quickly realized those were the stickiest businesses to be connected to. @thePivot on @youtube & streaming. #ThePivot #JayZ #FadeToBlack #RichKleiman #Business youtu.be/Sejt0oupO3M

“These guys think my name is Tom Kilman, but I can’t be Tom Kilman… Sr?”- @richkleiman Rich Kleiman loved playing basketball , but no matter how he tried basketball didn’t love him back. The straw that broke the camel’s back was a hoop camp where the directors didn’t list his name on any roster. Eventually, he realized they all thought his name was Tom Kilman Sr. It’s probably time for a new career path when they don’t remember your name. @thepivot on @youtube & streaming platforms. #ThePivot #RichKleiman #HoopDreams #TomKilmanSr youtu.be/Sejt0oupO3M

“If Jaden Ivey was Anthony Edwards he would still be on the team” Jaden Ivey’s release isn’t just about the consequences of free speech. It’s about the tolerance that extreme talent affords you. Had he played more than 30, 33, & 4 in the past three years his actions could be forgiven. It’s not uncommon to hear the things he said in today’s political & religious climate. He’s just not good enough to say it. It feels like he’s going through something, & I pray those close to him are there with him through this time. @Thepivot, Full video out Friday on @youtube. #ThePivot #JadenIvey #MentalHealth #FreeSpeech

“There’s a difference between earning and building wealth.” — @richkleiman From bookie to Boardroom…the journey wasn’t always clean, but it was calculated and in this episode, Rich breaks down how he turned street lessons into strategy, and strategy into a sports & media empire. From building with Kevin Durant to learning from Jay Z, this is a masterclass in vision, trust, and playing the long game. This conversation reveals how loyalty balances risk while highlighting evolution, growth and seeing opportunities where others don’t. This isn’t just about money…It’s about legacy. If you’re building something bigger than yourself—this one hits differently. youtu.be/Sejt0oupO3M Tap in now to new episode streaming on all audio platforms and @youtube drop your thoughts ⬇️ #KevinDurant #entrepreneur #wealth #sports #podcast @Realrclark25 @FredTaylorMade @OfficialCrowder

“We’re the Savanah Bananas… but we’re also humans that have real feelings, real emotions”- @TheSavBananas Jackson Olson @jacksonolson__ is 1 of the Bananas’ biggest stars. He’s entertaining, but also inspirational. Jackson loves to connect his story to the story of his fans. Like the time he & his father celebrated his journey playing catch at @redsox’ famed Fenway Park. The sentimental moment didn’t last too long though. The Olsons are @yankees’ fans. 😂 @thepivot on @youtube & streaming platforms. #ThePivot #SavanahBananas #Inspiration #MondayMotivation #JacksonOlsen youtu.be/AXDa3nVoN00
