Beyond The Jersey Podcast
Welcome to Beyond the Jersey, where we dive deep into the untold stories and raw journeys of athletes beyond the game! I'm Dominique Darius, your host, and each week, we'll embark on a journey to uncover the untold stories, passions, and triumphs of athletes that extend far beyond the uniforms they wear.
In the world of sports, we often see athletes as larger-than-life figures, celebrated for their exceptional talent and achievements in competition. But what lies beneath the surface? What experiences, challenges, and dreams shape these remarkable individuals beyond the spotlight?
Join me as we explore the human side of sports, where vulnerability meets resilience, and where the pursuit of greatness intertwines with the pursuit of personal growth.

From UCLA to USC: Londynn Jones’ Redemption Run
Londynn Jones has never let the doubters define her. From dropping 2,713 points in high school to setting records at UCLA and now turning a new page at USC, this is a story of resilience, belief, and redefining what greatness looks like — especially when you don’t fit the “typical mold.”
In this exclusive sit-down, Londynn opens up about:
Being ranked 22nd in the 2022 class — but not named a McDonald’s All-American
Representing Team USA 🇺🇸 (U17 + U18) & playing in the Jordan Brand Classic
Setting UCLA’s single-season 3PT record (87 made) & leading them to the Final Four
The emotional highs and lows of being "undersized" and overlooked
Her transfer to USC, why she bet on herself, and what she’s building next
A powerful new segment: “Locker Room Letters” — her message to the ones who believed in her first
"If there's a kid out there who feels too small, too unseen — I hope my story helps them realize...you do belong." Londynn Jones
This is more than just stats. This is heart, honesty, and hustle. Hit play — and hear Londynn’s journey in her own words.
