Tony Fair just signed his first pro contract in Athens, Greece — and he got there the LONG way. Montana all-state ➜ JUCO at Edmonds College ➜ Bushnell ➜ a year off ➜ top scorer in the country at Evergreen State ➜ pro. High school hoopers, this is the blueprint episode.
⚠️ Not financial advice — just real talk. Full disclaimer below.
Dave & JDam get Tony to open up the whole route:
- What everybody gets wrong about JUCO ("they bring 25 in because only 15 will still be there")
- The eye test: why a 6'6" wiry scorer had to eat his way from 175 to 200 lbs before Europe would even look
- Real agents vs. scam contracts — JDam's fake Australia deal vs. how Tony vetted GBN before signing
- The year off: journaling every morning, reading financial advisor books, TFF Teachings
- Coach Newt and the 3.2-or-you-don't-play rule that turned Tony into a 4.0 student
- NIL, posting your workouts, and why creating your own narrative literally got him signed
Plus: Tony calls his shot on the next guest — John from Verity Movement. 👀
