Courtney Love sits down with
Scott for this episode of the podcast.
Courtney serves as Director of
Player Development for University of Kentucky Football and played 2
seasons with the Wildcats (2016-2017) after transferring from
Nebraska.
Discussion
Questions:
1) Courtney is the Director of
Player Development for UK Football. He was a 2yr starter and team
captain, won the award for college football's top community
servant, and helped set the tone and culture for UK's football
program's success. He's no stranger to the locker room! What do you
remember most about his playing career?
2) When sharing his
favorite football memory he didn't talk about the fumble recovery
on Lamar Jackson or victory over Louisville, instead, he talked
about the practice the week before. Why did he pick that? What does
that say about his character?
3) Though he was very
successful athletically, Courtney always knew that his
identity was not in sports. What did he share about his
childhood that helped him know that? How did his college
roommates help hold him accountable to that?
4) His father was huge on
character, core values, and discipline. He once
told Courtney', "If you have a party that's only for the
"popular kids" I'm going to shut it down" because he
wanted him to always think about how he could help others.
Read Luke 14:15-24, what kind of people were
at the party described there?
5) When Courtney interacts with
people he is thinking: How can I serve you? How can I add
value to you? Sounds a lot like Jesus' words
in Matthew 20:28. Is that true for you, is
that your default?
6) Working with UK players now
his goal is to build men of character, competence, and consequence.
On the field, in the classroom, and in the community helping them
excel in all aspects of life. What did he say being a "man of
consequence" means? Are there men in your life who you are helping
to build up similarly?
7) Does your life exude calm
confidence? Are you confident in who you are and what your
purpose is? If not, how can you cultivate that?
