I got this template from Canva and added the logos for ODU and NBC Sports at the bottom. I found his accomplishments to be amazing. To be the first to create a professionalized version of the NFL Combine was well worth noting, as it&#8217;s been set up for every future reporting and communications leader to follow for decades after Chris and his co-worker developed it. That&#8217;s a level of impact you can&#8217;t recreate often. The most valuable thing I learned was to gain an understanding of the economics in your field. He mentioned that most industries view things from an analytical standpoint, which I understood as he was telling me. I chose to go in this direction of learning from what he has done in the past while also figuring out what he&#8217;s picked up throughout his 30-year experience in sports communications, he has some cool stories that put things into perspective about how things can work out for you. Overall, I enjoyed &amp; learned a lot from our conversation and look forward to continuing forward on our project with my sports professional. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I learned a lot from just our short Interview.
