Show Notes:Rich Spotlight: Dan Orlovsky

Has played sports his whole life and remembers his dad telling him that he would play on Sunday’s one day

UConn was a team that stayed committed to recruiting him throughout high school and decided to attend there to do something that people didn’t think could be done

Very difficult challenge of moving UConn football team from Division I-AA to Division I and the Big East ConferenceTurning point for success at UConn was after Freshman year and the big moment was eventually beating Iowa St

Life of an NFL back-up QB is very tough at times because you do everything the same as the starting QB throughout the week but you don’t get to play on Sunday

The challenge is how to prove your worth on a 53-man roster when you don’t get to play on Sunday

Decided to retire because the love of the grind was goneMentors in his career have been Jon Kitna, Josh McCown, Mike Furrey, Dave Wilson and Matt Schaub

Doesn’t know where he would be without sports and specifically football and not only from the financial perspective

Football helped challenge him not only physically but also mentally as you push yourself in competitionTV broadcasting is his next career goal and signed with ESPN as a football analyst joining the network for college football broadcasting and providing a role as an NFL analyst

Words of Wisdom from Dan Orlovsky:“How you do anything is how you do everything.” from coach Randy Edsall
