3.8 - Desmond Scott

Desmond Scott, one of Duke's most versatile players ever, stopped by for a great discussion about a wide variety of topics. In regard to just how impactful of a player Desmond was, take look at his rushing, receiving and return stats - it's unreal, especially considering that he transitioned to wide receiver for his senior year. Unbelievable. During this almost 1.5 hour discussion, we talk about how Desmond elected to forego the NFL to become a principal which, in turn, led him to his current career of being a life trainer. Desmond owns and operates Prime Athletic Training & Fitness Institute and helps develop his clients in all aspects of their lives. We discuss how Demond built his business, how he became an entrepreneur, the challenges presented to his livelihood by COVID-19 and being a new father. Oh, and did I mention we talked about Blue Devils football? Well, we did. And Desmond has an amazing recruiting story that involves an all-time "What If?" in regard to West Virginia. You'll be amazed when you hear it. Further, you'll recall that Desmond was on the 2012 team that beat the Cheats and was part of the 4th and Bowl play. And, if all this weren't enough, Desmond has some great things to say about Coach Elko, Coach Feeley and the current state of the program. Thank you, Desmond, for stopping by and for such a great talk. As always, Go Duke!
