We go from the moment they wake up to the moment they fall asleep and everything in between. Everything from the military obligations to the academic obligations to the athletic obligations. Matt provides great insight from something that he will mention in the podcast as the "NARP" perspective or the non-athletic regular person, where I come from a varsity athlete perspective.
