But this isn't just a conversation about winning gold.

Now serving as the Director of the National Junior Team for USA Swimming, Brendan lays out his blueprint for mentoring the next generation for LA 2028 and shares powerful, actionable life advice on values, accountability, and remaining obsessed with learning.

    EP 12 Dan Taraboi University of Michigan Offensive Line 1

    Dan Taraboi is a senior offensive lineman for the Michigan Wolverines, wearing jersey #66 and standing at an imposing 6'7", 328 pounds. He hails from Cedarburg, Wisconsin , where he built the foundation for what would become a quietly impactful college football journey. Taraboi arrived at Michigan as a preferred walk-on, turning down scholarship offers from San Diego and Valparaiso to pursue his dream of playing Big Ten football. That decision speaks volumes about his character — choosing the harder path with no guarantees over a sure thing at a smaller program. A three-time letter winner (2022, 2024–25), Taraboi made his collegiate debut along the offensive line against UConn in September 2022 University of Michigan Athletics, earning the respect of coaches and teammates in the process. He's also been recognized twice as an Academic All-Big Ten honoree (2024–25) University of Michigan Athletics, demonstrating that his commitment extends far beyond the field.
