It was painful to be at Doak Campbell Stadium while the Florida Gators got destroyed by the Florida State Seminoles. And then we get beat by the University of Central Florida in basketball. It just is not the year for Gator sports. I went to my first Miami Heat game of the season this week. […]
This is an awesome week for me. I am traveling across the country, from Pennsylvania, to Jacksonville, Florida, and finally to Bloomington, Indiana, to speak about being a sports agent. One of the main things that people want to hear is the story of how I got into the agent profession at such a young […]
I hope everyone has a fun and safe Halloween. I imagine that most people reading this post will be celebrating the holiday on Saturday night. Earlier that day, the Florida Gators will take on the Georgia Bulldogs, but the weekend in Jacksonville is most known for The World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party. Starting Monday, I’m going […]

We have stressed this point many times on SportsAgentBlog.com – Don’t limit yourself to only pursuing a career in sports agency; there are not many good jobs out there in the profession, and there are a ridiculous number of people willing to do almost anything to break in. That said, don’t lose your dream of […]
