One of good friends that we haven't had on the show (for whatever reason, we don't know).  So good to be joined by the new University of Kanas head coach Nate Lie!  Coming off massive success at Xavier, Nate explains the toughness in his decision to head to KU and you'll love hearing his passion for every place he has coached. What a story Nate has about turning to coaching after leaving the corporate world trading in suits for boots.

Three years in the making...we finally got the one and only Julianne Sitch from the University of Denver on the show!  One of the cool things about talking to Julianne is once you start talking about soccer or coaching you see such a ray of sunshine radiate from her smile.  We chatted with her about being a professional player living her dream playing in her hometown, going into the coaching ranks, winning a National Championship as the head coach of a Men's teams, to getting a job in her dream destination.
