“It was extremely exciting and interesting to interview such a well-known and well-respected former pro athlete,” said Keirsten Sires, co-founder of Locker Room Talk. “Troy Polamalu shared some interesting insights and valuable advice for both high school athletes interested in the college sports recruiting process, and college athletes wanting to succeed in their sport.”

Here is a quote from the interview: “The advice that I find most important is to do whatever it is that can make you successful as an athlete. Which is the same thing that will make you successful as a student and vice versa so that is why I think it is really important for someone to be a good student-athlete and not just an athlete,” said Troy Polamalu.
