All right, hey, I'm John Gordon. I'm here with Positive University and my guest is Brandon Marshall one of my favorite people on the planet. Brandon how are you?

Man it's an honor to be sitting here with you, man.

I really appreciate this opportunity.

I am good.

Where are you right now?

We're in Tucson, Arizona at the increased conference.

The increased conference is put on by a group called PAO,

professional athlete outreach.

And the way I, the easiest way to describe it is there's around

200 NFL couples married couples here learning about Jesus and learning about marriage.

That's awesome, that's awesome.

So let's talk about where you got started, where you grew up.

I'd love to first know about your childhood.

So I'm originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and my childhood is interesting.

You know, it's almost like I'm an army brat. I've been all over the place but my father he didn't serve

But I I'm originally from Pittsburgh and we were there until up until my fifth grade year and we're the only ones that move down south. We moved to

Orlando, Florida. So fifth grade year I was in Orlando, sixth and seventh grade year I was in Orlando.

And then my father went back to Pittsburgh and my brother and I,

we went to Atlanta where my mother moved to and we end up being there for a few years and then I went back to Florida my junior and senior year Florida always felt like home Florida always felt like home. Florida still feels like home.

But my entire family is in Pittsburgh outside of my siblings and mom and dad.

So I know you went to UCF, what made that decision possible to go to UCF?

So I'm sitting down with Ron Zook at the University of Florida.
