We welcome James McKinley, a former Tulane defensive back who made his mark for Coach Mack Brown in the 1987 Independence Bowl. Witness a tale of unwavering spirit, familial influence, and a steely determination that catapulted a late bloomer from a vocational high school into football stardom and a career in mortgage financing. We explore how the values he learned on the gridiron—teamwork, resilience, and competition—translate into career success and personal fulfillment. Join us for this episode of TTalk, where every play counts towards a life well-lived.
