On this episode of the playbook I have one of the most inspirational speakers

Jake Olson who at the age of 12 Pete Carroll brought in as he lost his sight and

then became the first blind long snapper in Division 1 football for the U.S.C. Trojans.

This is Entrepreneurs The Playbook,

where each week I bring you some of the greatest athletes, celebrities, and entrepreneurs

to talk about their personal and

professional playbook to success and what made them champions on the field and in the boardroom. I'm your host and CEO of Sports One Marketing, David Melzer.

This is Dave Melzer with entrepreneur and I am so excited. I got Jake Olson here.

Author, motivational speaker, you know, super unbelievable football star in your category.

Most people don't know but Jake Olson was the long snapper at USC but more

importantly I think everyone in the world Jake has disabilities. You know I

always tell people I'm literally a huge disadvantage in most people because I hide my disabilities better than anyone

Because I'm completely screwed up on the inside

But you can't see you know and it's pretty obvious unless your future is so bright you're wearing shades in here

Looks like the same sunglasses from your book open your eyes

They're getting a little small buddy

So that's nice of new I know we're we're working book open your eyes. They're getting a little small buddy.

I know.

I know. We're working now that I'm outside of the N.

A's grass on some deal, so maybe a sunglass.

Yeah, I got some connection to the Maui gym.

There we go, yeah.
