Moms in the Huddle
Moms in the Huddle is the go-to podcast for parents, coaches, agents, and athletes navigating today’s competitive sports landscape. We bring in parents, pros and players to unpack rankings, recruiting, NIL deals, transfers, mental health—and, yes, why sometimes parents just need to stay out of the locker room.
Moms in the Huddle — where no parent stands alone!

In the Huddle with OUR Boys – How the Journey Began
In this special episode of Moms in the Huddle, Erika and Jillian invite their very first guests—their sons—to share the mic. Joining the conversation are John Blackwell, Division I basketball player at the University of Wisconsin, and Semaj Morgan, Division I football player at the University of Michigan.
Together, this mother–son huddle dives into how the journey began. From early practices to game-day memories, John and Semaj reflect on their paths to becoming student-athletes at two of the nation’s top programs. Erika and Jillian open up about the sacrifices, prayers, and lessons learned along the way—revealing what it means to raise athletes while shaping young men of character, faith, and grit.
This episode is about more than sports—it’s about family, faith, perseverance, and the powerful bond between moms and their boys.
