The MAP boys sat down with Mike Taylor and Roger Kitchen Jr. to discuss an athlete assessment that uses AI to take a comprehensive view of an athlete's profile to measure "heart" and "head" through the merits of five traits: mastery; persistence; competitiveness; work ethic and team orientation.

Mike Taylor is the co-founder of AgDiago and has worked in the sports industry for more than 20 years where he has held leadership roles working with college coaches, the American Football Coaches Association, American Football Coaches Foundation and with other sports organizations such as United States Olympic Committee, NASCAR and ESPN.

Roger Kitchen, Jr. is the founder and mental skills coach for Power Mental Performance and friend of the Mental Advantage Podcast having been on the show multiple times.

The AgDiago athletic assessment can be used to help identify an athletes best cultural fit in a program and has been used by many high profile NCAA and professional teams.
