Hundreds of episodes that we've done on this show. This one might be my favorite personally. Coach Welsh, along with the rest of that strength staff during our career, pivotal figures in my life, Kevin Drake's life. This is an all-time guy. And I got to learn a little bit more about him that I didn't know. More importantly, listening to him reinforces why he's so great at his job.

You're going to love it. Coach Welsh, up walk walkons podcast

this season brought to by fan duel we're big time over here coach we got sponsors we have a

special guest today and i'm solo episode no kevin no grant so i really hope i don't mess this one up

because this is one of the all-time guys from our time at iowa coach joel wel Welsh joins the show today. Coach, so thankful that you're here, and I'm excited to catch up, man. I'm appreciative of you, man. It's awesome to see you. I don't say to work grow up. Don't take it that way, but it's awesome to see you kind of going through the process and to where you're at right now, man. It's pretty neat.

Grow up's a good term.

There's a lot of that that's happened since I first came into the program back in 2013.

You came in a year earlier in 2012, I believe.

Yes, yep.

That's right.

And, well, I'd be curious.

As 18-year-old Kluver was a different guy.

And I think that's a good thing.

We need to change and grow over time and mature.

They say that for guys, the brain doesn't fully develop until 25 um at 30 physically

I'm still trying to prove that I'm not at my peak yet uh don't say try there's no trying

you're not there you go I'm trying to prove the physical development still has a lot of

potential as well but I'd be curious um in in a selfish way to start this podcast, what you remember of me coming into the program?

Because that would actually be a wild.

Because admittedly, and I've talked about it on the show, I was immature.

Funny that I now do podcasting for a living.

I talked a lot.
