241: The mailbag (with Grant Cartwright)

Published: Feb. 8, 2021, 12:41 p.m.

It's time to open the listener mailbag again. A few times a year we solicit listener questions and take them on air. This time, the format is a little different. Recently we've been getting a lot of great questions from Boston University's Grant Cartwright. So we invited him on to help us answer some questions, ask a few of his own, and talk about the major influences on his coaching.
