SEC Football Looks to Motivational Speakers to Jumpstart Season

College football is right around the corner, and no one gets more excited than the Southeastern Conference. In the south, football is a season. As teams prepare for opening day, many look to celebrities, sports legends, or motivational speakers to inspire and motivate their teams.

The University of Alabama recently heard from boxing legend Mike Tyson, who urged players to love themselves and manage their anger in a healthy way. 

"I had no reason to show love to anybody. The more I hurt people, the more people loved me...I was this boxer who hurt people. I always had to be 'Iron Mike.' You gotta love yourself before you can love one another and your teammates."

The University of Tennessee heard from motivational speaker and VFL, Inky Johnson, who asked, "Can you be committed to the process of what you are doing without being emotionally attached to the results of what you're doing?" 

 

These sports motivational speakers can inspire and motivate more than just the football team. Business conferences and organizations seek out football speakers and sports legends for motivation for their audiences and team members all the time. Many of these speakers share their experiences on how to overcome adversity and perform under pressure, and how to handle the highs and lows of successes and failures. They speak on topics such as leadership, teamwork, and being resilient.
