Late Rounders
Late Rounders presents behind-the-scenes stories of two real-life Jerry Maguires struggling to find a spot in the world of pro-football for their cabal of humble yet focused football players teetering on the fringe of NFL contention. The show follows a group of college football stand-outs as they begin their quest to make the 53-man roster of an NFL football team. Corey Peters, Aaron Morgan, Alfonso Smith, John Conner, and Ray Fisher come from different backgrounds yet share a common bond. Their personal stories come together inside a Kentucky sports bar on the biggest day of their lives – draft day – as cameras capture every win, every loss, and every moment in their struggle to become Late Rounders.

Two real-life Jerry McGuires vowing to do it the right way.


Michael Puterbaugh
Agent/Advisor - HOF Player Representatives

The term “sports agent” has an earned scarlet letter. But convention is tossed aside with Mike. A soft-spoken corporate attorney from sleepy Canton, OH, Mike’s living his dream of being a sports agent and doing it the right way. He readily admits he’ll never be one of the big guns in the industry – but he doesn’t want to be. He views his athletes as family and helping his clients make it big is all the reward he needs.




Greg “Tripp” Linton
Agent/Advisor - HOF Player Representatives

Though similar in strategy and mindset, Mike Puterbaugh and Greg “Tripp” Linton have extremely different personalities. Mike is soft- spoken and reserved, whereas Tripp is outgoing and animated. Tripp was able to use his connections at the University of Kentucky to secure three Wildcat standouts and gain credibility in the industry. Tripp shares Mike’s vision of creating an agency based upon honesty and the ability to look yourself in the eye at the end of the day. On draft day, will that refreshing take on the often corrupt world of professional sports pay off for him and his clients?
