Today on At the Podium with Manuel Amezcua, we have the pleasure of sitting down with John Huggins, a safety from Jackson State University who will be waiting to hear his name get called in the 2024 NFL Draft.
John’s story begins in the Bronx, but he had many stops along the way. He played high school football in Florida before committing to Florida State. However, after Jimbo Fisher took the Texas A&M job, John made the switch to Gainesville to play for the Gators.
After some hiccups in his career, John Huggins ultimately ended up at Jackson State, and his new coach would be no other than Coach Prime, Deion Sanders.
Under Coach Prime, John learned the value of hard work, punctuality, and the importance of focusing on the finest of details.
John most recently dominated at the HBCU combine and earned high praise from NFL Draft gurus like Bucky Brooks.
Throughout all of his stops and all of his experiences, John Huggins has never lost sight of the fact that God is guiding his steps, and that only HE is the author of his story.

Mr. Jason Wilson is the founder and CEO of The Yunion (pronounced "union"), a non-profit youth development organization in Detroit, Michigan. Since 2003, The Yunion has effectively reached more than 15,000 youth and young adults through innovative prevention programming, trauma-informed care, parental engagement, and counseling. In 2008, Mr. Wilson's dedication to fatherless and misguided Black boys inspired him to create and direct the Cave of Adullam Transformational Training Academy (CATTA). In this episode, Manny and Jason talk in depth about what it takes to become the man that the moment demands. At the core of this discussion is recognizing, confronting, and addressing the childhood experiences and societal pressures that contribute to the growth and suffering of broken men. Jason shares insights on overcoming these struggles and explains why correcting our children with love leads to understanding and inner transformation. Jason has appeared on major shows like Lewis Howes’ "School of Greatness," the Ed Mylett Show, and "The Joe Rogan Experience," and we couldn’t be more thankful for him spending his afternoon with us on "At the Podium."
