This week, Coach Alphonza Kee & Coach Scott Bollwage tap in with Akeem Miskdeen, assistant coach at Michigan, and this one is all about the journey.

From knowing at an early age he wanted to coach… to starting as a volunteer at Hampton… to grinding his way through stops at Mount Olive, Wingate, Hampton again, Kent State, Florida Atlantic, Florida, Georgia… and now Michigan.

We get into the mindset that separates real coaches, being fully committed to where your feet are, not chasing the next job, but making the job you have the most important one there is.

We also dive into defining moments, the hesitation of leaving Wingate, the advice that changed everything, “never pass on an opportunity,” and what it meant for his journey.

And then… the full circle moment.

Back in his hometown of Chicago, coaching on one of the biggest stages in the game, and being part of something bigger than basketball, seeing the Fab 5 show up and support the next generation at the Final Four.

This episode is about loyalty, growth, sacrifice, and what it really takes to build a career in this game.

If you’re a coach, a player, or chasing something bigger… this one is for you.

Tap in.
