NFL and college football analyst Kirk Herbstreit joins Greg Olsen on Youth Inc. to break down the College Football Playoff National Championship between Miami and Indiana, share the incredible turnaround story of Mario Cristobal's Hurricanes, and get real about what's broken in youth sports today.
Kirk opens up about raising four sons in the travel sports era, the "Earl Woods syndrome" that's burned out a generation of young athletes, and why early specialization creates better 12-year-olds but worse 25-year-olds. He shares hard-earned lessons about being "that dad" on the sidelines, navigating the transfer portal as a parent, and why education should always trump NFL dreams.
From the recruiting landscape that's changed everything to development vs. winning at all costs, Kirk provides perspective every parent needs to hear. Plus: his take on Monday night's national championship and why both Miami and Indiana represent what's possible when culture and development come first.
