This week, American Athletic Conference 2019 Championship Coaches, Denise Schilte-Brown of USF and Kevin Hudson of SMU join Mr. Fireside to bring the coach's perspective to light. Here's a unique learning experience in an intimate setting with two coaches leading successful programs, both USF and SMU were 2019 AAC Conference Champs with USF making it to the NCAA Sweet 16 for the first time in program history and SMU competing in NCAA Elite 8 last year.

"This game gave me more than I could have ever given back to it." - Dee Kantner, NBA & NCAA Referee   If you thought last week's discussion with PRO GM, Howard Webb was good just wait until you meet Dee Kantner! Stock up on wood and join Mr. Fireside in the 3rd episode of Fireside Chats as he hosts 23X NCAA Final Four Official, including 15 National Championships and pure legend on the court, Dee Kantner. If you don't know her for her NCAA tours, you may recognize her as one of the first women in the NBA in 1997, or perhaps the 1998 FIBA World Championship and the 2000 Summer Olympics.   You can expect candid conversations that cross the court to the pitch, including keys to success in officiating and breaking down barriers.
