Episode 042: Glenn “Shemy” Schembechler

Glenn “Shemy” Schembechler serves as the President of GES Advisory Company. Shemy has spent the majority of his life and professional career in the football industry, growing up as the son of legendary coach Glenn E. “Bo” Schembechler. He has evaluated talent for such high-level programs as the University of Michigan, the Kansas City Chiefs, the Chicago Bears, the Washington Redskins, and the Seattle Seahawks. In addition to his father, Shemy has studied under accomplished coaches Gary Moeller, Lloyd Carr, Marty Schottenheimer, and Joe Gibbs. They have all had an indelible impact on his career, and his ability to scout and recommend prospects. Shemy has been a part of many championship and playoff teams, and has been able to evaluate or recommend players that have gone on to Pro Bowl careers (Charles Woodson, Ian Gold and Tom Brady, respectively), as well as inductees into the Pro Football Hall of Fame (Joe Montana, Marcus Allen, and Derrick Thomas, respectively).

In today’s episode, we discuss:

  • Growing up with a famous dad
  • Mistakes that coaches and players make that sabotage their success
  • How he is helping student-athletes develop and maximize their potential
  • Stories from the 10-year war between Woody Hayes and Bo Schembechler
Bo Schembechler won more than 79% of his games and is in the College Football Hall of Fame.
