Inside The Play Call With Orange Arrow

Join Shawn for this week’s episode featuring LaMonte Jones, a former basketball player and current Director at PepsiCo! They start by discussing Jones’ background, from growing up on the South Side of Chicago to getting his start in basketball and advancing to the collegiate level at Southern Illinois University. It was this time in college that brought an end to his playing career, as an injury caused him to make the difficult decision to walk away from sports to pursue other opportunities through obtaining his accounting degree, which led him to his job of 25 years at PepsiCo. They also discuss how the rivalry between Pepsi and Coke makes each brand stronger, and how Jones played an integral role in the 2019 Super Bowl in Atlanta.
