Ryan Clark has known Greg Brooks most of his life as the two former football stars played football together and grew up in Louisiana together. As fathers, their sons Jordan Clark and Greg Brooks Jr played football together in 7 on 7’s and near by high schools. Greg Brooks Jr committed to LSU and was a starting safety leading the Tigers on defense. In this emotional conversation, Greg is able to put his words together to talk with Ryan sharing advice for young athletes after undergoing a lifechanging brain surgery and brain tumor diagnosis that has altered his speech and movement. Brooks Jr., now 23, was a newly selected team caption for LSU in August 2023 when he said he began experiencing symptoms including nausea, dizziness and headaches during football practice. The next month, in September, the Louisiana native was diagnosed with a brain tumor and underwent brain surgery. Brooks Jr.'s father, Greg Brooks Sr. shares with Ryan he was not notified by LSU of his son's condition until he was told he would undergo brain surgery. #ThePivot #Podcast #RyanClark #ChanningCrowder #FredTaylor #NFL
