Publisher's summary

What's Next? is a self-help book aimed primarily at college and professional athletes who have left their sport, or are preparing to leave, and seek guidance as to what they need to do next. Author Derrick Furlow, Jr., a former college and professional football player, has been in those shoes. Some things he has learned the hard way, parlaying challenging, even dire, circumstances into sources of innovative solutions; other points of action he has sought out and implemented on his own. Furlow now offers sound advice and encouragement to athletes in transition.

Moving, raw, and incredibly valuable

Former football player Derrick Furlow recounts his journey from inner-city to pro football. His faith and work-ethic helped him overcome a serious knee injury on his way to play at a major university. The book is filled with useful advice for current and retired athletes. Best of all, the book is read by the author which makes it real.

Great life lessons for student athletes

If you are either preparing or in the middle of a transition from athletics to not being a competitor anymore, this will help you. The only minus in the book is the audio as it wasn't the same as the others I have read.

In-Depth Content

The author personally reads the book which makes it much more personable. The content is in-depth and impacted me in so many positive ways. I am much older than the average individual transitioning from college to career, and furthermore I never even played sports, but I gained encouragement and was challenged by the content of the book. I highly recommend it for all readers! You will be inspired by the clarity of the content as well as the personal stories from the author.
