Five Heart Podcast 281: Dents In the Head And High School Officiating

HEyoooooooooooo!

Greg is gone! Todd is gone! It’s just me, Jon Johnston, joined by Nate McHugh, some guy that writes for this site! All these exclamation points, you know something good is happening.

It’s another episode of the Five Heart Podcast!

WooooOo!

Nate is coaching youth baseball. He’s coached a lot of youth sports. We start by having a discussion about officiating in kids’ sports because Nate has spent a lot of time there and has some thoughts on the state of youth officiating.

Nate points out that parents yelling at officials aren’t helping their teams. It’s worth a listen. He recommends paying attention to what Frank Martin is saying in this video.

I talk about some of my experience in coaching youth soccer for decade, then I bring up an entirely different subject.

How much force does it take to dent a human skull?

This is what I’ve been spending my past few nights trying to figure out. It’s a subject of my next book.

Nate brings up the NIL discussion that occurred on the Doc Talk podcast with Luke Reimer and Nick Henrich, along with ABM guy Gerrod Lambrecht.

There’s a bunch of big recruiting happening this month at Nebraska camps. We’d cover that, but CornNation really needs recruiting writers. So, send an email to cornnation@gmail.com along with why you’d like to do this for us if interested. Send any experience.

And like Nate says in the podcast... don’t worry if you don’t hear anything for a while. It took me months to respond to him!
