Episode Description

Villanova Quarterback Tanner Maddocks is not your usual D1 athlete. Tanner is also the founder of Athlete Squared, a platform for high school athlete to watch training video of college players they look up to. Tanner is one of the players in Division 1 history we know to be raising money for his startup WHILE playing college football. Crazy, but Tanner is up to the task. We chat about how selling NFTs has helped TM3 fund his company, the vision of Athlete Squared, and balancing football, school, and the next multi-million dollar company.
