The Path to Success with Shane Leatherbury

What happens to a dream deferred? Sometimes, it can dry up like a raisin in the sun.

Other times, the wait can pay off, and Towson University receiver Shane Leatherbury can attest to this. Leatherbury was named First-Team All-Colonial Athletic Association after a 67-catch, 885-yard and seven-touchdown season after being a walk-on two seasons ago.

Prior to that, the former high school quarterback played a season of football at Division II Seton Hill, before ta
king a year off.

In this episode, Leatherbury discusses his path to playing football at the Football Championship Subdivision level, how he made the jump from Division II, and what he did in the year between to prepare himself for the transition.

Leatherbury also talks about some of his influences, the best athlete he’s played against, the best piece of advice he received, and more.
