In this episode of Behind The Sport (BTS), we sit down with Andrew Tisher — a Division 1 head manager and scouting assistant at Florida A&M — whose journey is anything but ordinary.
From being a highly recruited football prospect with NFL attention… to breaking his back not once, not twice, but THREE times… Andrew’s path could’ve ended early. Instead, it completely transformed.
Now at just 21 years old, he’s working inside a D1 basketball program, balancing scouting, recruiting, player development, and real in-game decision-making.
We dive into:
- The reality of injuries ending athletic careers
- What REALLY happens behind the scenes in college sports
- The grind of being a student-athlete AND staff member
- Why the next generation of coaches is changing the game
- The truth about NIL, recruiting, and the transfer portal
This is a story about resilience, reinvention, and what it really takes to stay in the game—even when everything tells you you’re out.
