Todd Stepsis was named the Head Football Coach at Drake University in December of 2018. He is the 27th head coach in Drake history and took the reins of the program after five seasons as its defensive coordinator.

After every interview I do, I walk away saying “where was that coach when I was 17 looking for a place to play and go to school?”

Coach Stepsis is one those leaders. He’s smart. Graduated magna cum laude from college. He’s humble. The health and happiness of his family, his coaches, and his players all come before the quest for wins. He’s genuine, kind, insightful, and above all, significant in all he does.

If you are a parent listening to this wondering what type of coach you want for your son or daughter. Todd Stepsis is the quality of person you’re looking for. Fun conversation!

Matt Lisle is the Assistant Coach and Recruiting Director for the Softball program at Oregon State University, but you may know him best from the guy sitting on the dock with his brothers every morning telling Dad Jokes trying to get each other to laugh. That’s right, Matt Lisle is the oldest of the 7 Lisle children, and the 5 brothers are the ones you see on Instagram @Dock Tok and @LoganLisle (the creator of Dock Tok and Matt’s youngest brother), as well as Matt’s personal Instagram @CoachSaysJokes.

I came across Coach Lisle a number of year’s back when I was reading about Major League Baseball and the Seattle Mariners star outfielder, Mitch Haniger. Coach Lisle trained Mitch for a number of years, and they are still close friends today.

Coach Lisle has had an amazing career as a baseball and softball coach at every level of college and the pros. He’s worked with the Chicago White Sox as well as the D3, NAIA, JC, D2 and D1 levels coaching men (baseball) and women (softball).

We had a great conversation talking about the unusual family dynamic we share, as well as Dad Jokes and all things baseball, softball, coaching and college recruiting. It was a very fun conversation to say the least! Enjoy!
