​​On this episode of Bussin’ With The Boys, Will Compton and Taylor Lewan kick things off with a packed intro, recapping their weekend in Vegas before going to both College Football Playoff Semifinals with Josh Pate. The boys also hit on Jarod Beeman’s stand-up comedy set, a clean KNF take, RO Spicy Tier Talk, and wrap the intro with the True Classic Gooner of the month. Then the bus pulls up for a powerful sit-down with one of Will’s longtime teammates and brothers, Lavonte David. Lavonte hops on the bus for an honest, wide-ranging conversation covering his entire journey from high school uncertainty and the JUCO grind to dominating at Nebraska and becoming one of the most respected linebackers in NFL history. The boys talk about hidden recruiting offers, always wanting to play for Miami, taking recruiting into his own hands, and the work ethic that defined his rise. Lavonte and Will also share behind-the-scenes stories, reflecting on longevity in the league, the wear and tear on his body, and what it truly takes to be a first-ballot Hall of Famer. Big hugs. Tiny kisses.
