Todd DeSorbo

We spent an entire day inside the University of Virginia’s program and sat down with head coach Todd DeSorbo to understand what makes UVA one of the most dominant teams in NCAA history. In this episode, Todd talks through the culture he inherited and how it transformed into the five-time national championship standard it is today. He opens up about leading athletes across two teams, keeping training fresh, balancing chaos with structure, managing big personalities, navigating major NCAA changes, and why he believes the program succeeds because everyone is pulling for each other. We also get into misconceptions about UVA’s training style, the reality of roster limits, recruiting philosophy, relay strategy, dual-meet showmanship, and how Todd handles nonstop seasons, national team responsibilities, and finding moments to breathe. It’s a look inside the mind of one of the most influential coaches in the sport and the environment that keeps producing champions.-----Subscribe to the show on your favorite podcast platform, and follow us on social media (https://linktr.ee/unfilteredwaters) for clips, bonus content, and updates throughout the week.-----FOLLOW KATIE ON:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kthoff7/-----FOLLOW MISSY ON:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/missyfranklin88/-----SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSIM8health.com/discount/unfiltered for 10% offendlesspools.com/unfiltered to unlock $1,000 offdreamrecovery.io use code UNFILTEREDTHIRTY for 30% offarenasport.com to browse the full collection-----#UnfilteredWaters #Swimming #ToddDeSorbo #UVA
