Show Notes
In this episode of It’s More Than a Game, Jalen Harris sits down with Malcolm Canada, Storm Woods, and Jeff Travillion — four former athletes turned coaches and mentors — to break down what real development actually looks like.
This conversation goes beyond basketball and football.
It’s about:
- how upbringing shapes athletes
- why environment matters more than exposure
- the role of fatherhood in leadership
- what separates players who make it vs those who don’t
- and how youth sports is evolving — for better or worse
From competing in Austin’s toughest era to now pouring back into the next generation, this episode is a raw, honest look at what it takes to build athletes — and people.
If you're a player, parent, coach, or trainer… this is a conversation you need to hear.
