I m from south of France where Amercian football is rare to find ... and this man made me look the nfl for him alone !! Incredible player , i still got his jersey from this time and in France it's pretty rare to have anything about U S football !! Love that dude !
This is one of the best interviews yet. Blown away at how intelligent and well rounded person Eddie is. He seems like a great role model for those young men.
He is approaching this as an executive more than a coach and that is what HBCUs need at the moment. This approach will help getting HBCUs on the right track.
Only problem I see when hiring a big name for an hbcu is that when the big name leaves things go back to what they use to be. Watch what happens to Jackson state and see what they have become in a few more years.
@@Docstantinople To your point, HBCU's will need to work with these coaches to develop succession plans to ensure the program's continued success. I love what Eddie George and Coach Prime are doing and how they're inspiring other former players to do the same!
This interview was great. I had no idea how well-rounded and diverse Eddie George is. He was a Beast in College and the NFL....and he had to overcome a lot to get to this stage in his life. It just goes to prove that hard work and self-discipline will take you places you've never been.
Love that Eddie acknowledged that he was inspired by what Coach Prime did at JSU which is apart of the reason why he took the job at Tennessee State. And also, that he would use what Prime did as a blueprint pertaining to many things yet put his own finger prints on it. Thanks Eddie for keeping it real and giving Deion his credit. The fact is, Coach Prime may not be at an HBCU any longer but no matter how much people try to slander his name for leaving, the impact that he had on HBCU football will be long lasting. Job well done CP 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I did security for Eddie in the early 2000s. He exhibits humility like no other. I remember the way people reacted to seeing him and asked him if it was always crazy like that and he replied “man it has but I don’t know why because I’m just another squirrel trying to get a nut” . Lol He is a genuine good person.
Lot of respect for Eddie and what he's doing in contributing to the young lives of young men and women. Not trying to be Deion but doing it his way and being himself. Keep up the good work Eddie and wish you success.
He should never want to be anybody else but himself. However he said that Deion laid the blue print and he is following it! Nothing more needs to be said!
Friend and teammate from Fork Union. Played at Hampton University. He definitely knows about HBCU ball. I would always tell him how different it was. Also remember how we would dream the "What if scenarios" while in school. Literally raced him all the time and he never one. Then 1 day, I say its a tie he said he won but at 6'3 230 at that time he was on 6'0 180 wr heels. In that moment I knew he was different. We literally would talk and dream what if we won the Heisman. Then to see him work and be blessed to win it. It still gives me chills because it came true.
This was Awesome, Shannon! I never realized how well-rounded, inspirational, and well-spoken, Eddie George is! A definite role model for the young men and women that he will influence at the university level!
Outstanding interview! Eddie George is very impressive personally and professionally. TSU you have a gem. Please use him to your advantage by respecting, trusting, and supporting him. All the best.
OMG..THE FAMILY HAS..needed THIS KIND OF ACTION so long AND NOW YOU GUYS ARE HERE! ..TO MENTOR THESE GUYS : and direct, counsel, and EDUCATE them FINANCIALLY , socially, and spiritually. Shannon, Prime, Eddie..you guys are ALREADY LEADERS in our VILLAGE. You've got this party started ...There's a message and calling in the air. .CARRY ON!!
Definitely the best interview to date. It was so real and authentic. As a HBCU alumni, I am rooting for Eddie George, my sorority sister Dr. Glenda Glover and the entire TSU family. HBCU FOR LIFE!
Unbelievable interview Shannon. You have a true talent & it's great to see you shine. I follow your podcast and van truly say it's by far one of the greatest podcast on the web..
"Power 5 ideas, but an HBCU budget"- Shay Lol Shannon keeps a few one liners dailey. That was a hilarious and true line. S/O to Eddie for putting in that work to grow the Tennessee State Football program.
@@i.p.freely5974 same way yoh don't have a one liner for your manager when they tell you to stay late after your shifts, niggas the best advisors behind a keyboard
As a Hispanic man I love to see each other and other men in their profession indulge in such a drink to bring out a side in one another that maybe noone else has seen 👍 love Shannon
Shoutout to TSU and the home city of Nashville. Great school and city to be in. Eddie is a legend here in Nashville and we appreciate him here. 4 HBCUs here in Nashville(Tennessee State, Fisk University, Meharry Medical College, and American Baptist College)
Doing a HBCU Tour on my motorcycle (89schools so far) love this interview and need more like this to shine a light on all HBCUs! Keep up the good work UNC!!!!
Eddie George relates on a down-to-earth level. Personality sense of humor loaded with passion. Eddie was the personification of opportunity meeting preparation.
Shannon, your interviews are always an enjoyable listen. Thank you for the style and intellectual balance bringing out the fullness of the humans you have conversations with.
Great interview 📽️. Eddie George was one of my favorite running backs in the NFL (during his tenure). Thanks for representing HBCU's and giving an insight of ways to better ourselves. Now I'll start watching Club Shay Shay. Shannon every coach doesn't want to coach at a power five school. God bless 🙏
Dr Glover is an EXTRAORDINARY woman. shout out to her for having the courage and vision to ask him to be their coach. and shout out to eddie for being open minded and taking the job. they are both great for that school and the hbcu brand as a whole.
Probably my favorite episode next to T.I.'s! Eddie George was my absolute favorite running back growing up before I started watching Bettis and the Steelers. Loved watching him play, and hearing about his life and watching him and Shannon talk was dope. Great episode!
Great interview! Perfect vibe between Shay & Eddie. Some interviews are not interesting due to the guest’s personality & communication style. Eddie George is captivating, and Shannon you brought it out.
Utica NY, chiming in. Eddie George was my favorite player back in the day. The Titans were my favorite player! I love his favorite life episode. Eddie George was the original beast at running back for me. This interview was fantastic. I’m very inspired.
I live right outside of Nashville. I ran into Eddie George outside of a restaurant. He is HUGE. I was actually shocked. I could not imagine tackling him multiple times in a football game. Derrick Henry is bigger. Much respect to NFL defenses.
Very well spoken. It’s not about him it’s about the student. He is very understanding of the system.

Another great conversation. Thank you Shannon for having Eddie George on your show to discuss his involvement with Tennessee State. I Attended Bishop College which used to be in Dallas Texas. I finished from Texas Southern University in Houston Texas in 1974. HBCUs really need our support. I wish you and Eddie George much success. Again I can't thank you enough for putting the spotlight on HBCUs.
Tennessee State is my alma mater! Always loved Eddie since he was At Ohio State. Make the alumni’s proud. I’m so glad I go to TSU singing glory hallelujah, I’m so glad
Hall of Fame is Joke, 49ers Roger Craig & Jacksonville Freaky Fred not in the Hall but Terrell Davis is, with only 7600 career rush yards, I believe he's #54 or #55 on running back list
1368, 1399, 1294, 1304, 1509.....Eddie's first 5 seasons with two more thousand yard seasons down the stretch.....travesty he and Fred Taylor aren't in.
Thank you Mr Shannon Sharpe for having eddie George on your show I learn a lot about his character as a business, coach , marriage an as a man . Thank you eddie george for your wisdom an knowledge.
as a Tennessee Titan’s fan of 24 years now, I would be ecstatic to have Eddie George as our Head Coach. Losing in the super bowl to the Rams, was crushing to watch at my young age back then.
Love it! Shannon, "You got power 5 ideals!" LOL! I remember Eddie from the Fork Union recruiting days with Rickey Dudley both went on to Ohio St. and the NFL! Awesome bruthas! Good Luck Coach EG!
Like the young fellas that manage Deions media, appreciate Shays efforts. Having media that doesn't portray negativity, learning , and good conversation is awesome. Daps🤜🏿🤛🏾
I really enjoyed this interview with Eddie George one of my favorite NFL player. I wish him nothing but success and may God bless him that every thing he touches will be successful.
Eddie George is SO WELL SPOKEN! HES A MASCULINE TOUGH HARD NOSED YET WELL SPOKEN AND INTELLIGENT. I RESPECT AND SUPPORT EDDIE GEORGE AND WISH HIM THE BEST
Eddie George is the reason why I started watching college football. The main reason why I became a Buckeyes fan. It’s so great to see how well he’s doing, bringing much needed grounding to the HBCU community 💪🏾
Love the fact that he is not materialistic, fluff, but he's about that which is long term and not short term. Loved this video that is educating me about who Eddie George really is.
This was a very good interview. Great seeing Eddie George. Steve use to give us tickets to their games, the best seats in the house. If ever you wanna see Eddie run, give him the ball, this man was a goat. I enjoyed seeing the Titans. Nashville is a beautiful place, especially Brentwood.
Shannon is consistently the Best one on one Maestro in media. If not the best, certainly one of the best. Incredible interview skills. Great show, Mr. Sharpe.
What guest would you like to see on Club Shay Shay next?

Well said
So appreciative of Eddie George and his humility.
facts. very humble dude
He is approaching this as an executive more than a coach and that is what HBCUs need at the moment. This approach will help getting HBCUs on the right track.
Totally agree
He’s putting the coaches necessary in place while He try’s to focus on it all .
Eddie George understands the importance of a sound infrastructure in building a long lasting winning program and culture. No hype or hope.
Only problem I see when hiring a big name for an hbcu is that when the big name leaves things go back to what they use to be. Watch what happens to Jackson state and see what they have become in a few more years.
@@Docstantinople To your point, HBCU's will need to work with these coaches to develop succession plans to ensure the program's continued success. I love what Eddie George and Coach Prime are doing and how they're inspiring other former players to do the same!
Finally somebody talking about the real issues HBCUs have.
No point in talking
They shld just stop playing football
And it will colaspe
@@meld1817 that’s a major sacrifice…question is who gonna start it?
@@meld1817 whatcha mean stop playing football? Whats that gonna do?
@@meld1817 as much as that sounds like a solution...bruh be real. As long as Power 5 exists don't nobody give af about HBCUs boycotting lol
@@meld1817 What will collapse?
Eddie George was a great player and he will be a great coach. HBCUs needs coaches like him.
Eddie George is very well rounded and genuinely inspirational. You have to respect his journey
This interview was great. I had no idea how well-rounded and diverse Eddie George is. He was a Beast in College and the NFL....and he had to overcome a lot to get to this stage in his life. It just goes to prove that hard work and self-discipline will take you places you've never been.

Amen 🙏🏿 JESUS BLESS
This is the best interview ever of Eddie George. He really is coming out. I love what he's doing at Tennessee State.

Eddie George was incredible back in the day.
Yes he was
Absolutely incredible.
A monster
He was tho
Correction he was very incredible 💪🏾
Eddie George is a great ambassador for HBCUs.
Y'all talk more about Colorado than his program. Why is that?
@@i.p.freely5974 right!
I didn't know he was even coaching bo coverage
@@i.p.freely5974 ‼️‼️‼️‼️ that part‼️‼️‼️‼️ They need to talk more about what Eddie is building! What Hue is doing! That Deion ship has sailed
@@i.p.freely5974 Deion used his star power and connections to get the coverage…these guys must do the same 🤷🏾♂️ the media is not coming just on gp

As a fellow SSU Tiger, this episode was extremely important.

Eddie George was a beast!!! And still looks great!!!
Eddie is one of the best collegiate running backs ever
Bruh looks the same as he did when he played!

Two gentlemen having a Dope dialogue !!! Can't beat it!!
Im going to tell my wife, “ Baby I got power 5 idea’s with HBCU money” 😂
😂
The problem is you people love to partake of the HBCU offering but will not $upport them. This behavior need to be retified before we lose them!
This was so refreshing in his plans and ideas for the future of Tennessee state
This is a great conversation that all of us need to hear.
I am so glad that Eddie George is telling the truth about what HBCUs are treated by governing bodies
Shoutout to TSU and the home city of Nashville. Great school and city to be in. Eddie is a legend here in Nashville and we appreciate him here. 4 HBCUs here in Nashville(Tennessee State, Fisk University, Meharry Medical College, and American Baptist College)
Great interview and love how he understands the HBCU factors. Ed should be taking notes!
No.....HBCU should be taking notes. They've been around much longer than ED .
Ed is not mature, charismatic or classy enough to coach right now.

Taking notes about what? How do you throw a tantrum and rant on social media?
