While the conversation focused on the many facets of his exceptional career on and off the football field, it poignantly focused on the value and importance of DE&I as a player, coach, and sports medicine professional.
Eddie signed autographs for some of the VIP guests before his Moderated QA. Eddie shared so many stories from his amazing Ohio State career to his legendary NFL career with the Tennessee Titans. The conversation focused on his mentors, his parents, overcoming adversity, teamwork, leadership and the sacrifice it takes to be great.

Client Testimonial
Direct Sportslink really helped us out of a jam. Our speaker for an awards banquet cancelled at the last minute. Our theme for the banquet was basketball so not only were we in need of a replacement but the sports speaker needed to be in the professional basketball field. Direct Sportslink saved us - not only did they come through with a well-known basketball player, but they gave us several options. Our employees couldn't stop raving about Muggsy Bogues. Direct Sportslink made it easy to do business at the last minute. Their professionalism and willingness to help us during a pinch is invaluable. We won't hesitate to do business with them again.
