About this listen

Episode 4: The Proving Ground features Payton McBroom, defensive back at North Greenville University, in a conversation about football, faith, confidence, leadership, adversity, and growth.

Payton joins Nate Garner and Jim Padgett to talk about his journey from Greenville to North Greenville, how prayer helped guide his college decision, and what it has been like growing through the demands of college football. He shares the mindset it takes to play defensive back, how confidence changed his game, why film study matters, and what he learned from last season’s run to a conference championship.

The episode also dives into life beyond football, including Payton’s interest in cyber security, his future goals, and the importance of community, brotherhood, and player development inside the program. This is a conversation about team bonding, staying grounded in faith, and becoming the kind of competitor who keeps showing up no matter what.
