Brandon Brooks was one of the best offensive linemen in the league during his five years with the Philadelphia Eagles and an important player on the Super Bowl champions. Not too shabby. Never content to rest on his laurels, Brooks quickly took on a lot in his post-playing career, enrolling in the Wharton School of Business … where he took a class with our beloved professor Deniz Selman. 

Today, we reunite them to discuss Brooks’ career, his future in investment banking and how often professor Selman tried to pick his brain about whether a running play was “duo” or not.
