How ex-Hurricanes DT Michael Wyche’s hustle went from drug dealing to life coaching

Miami Hurricanes followers may remember Michael Wyche as a defensive tackle UM picked up from junior college toward the end of coach Al Golden’s era who didn’t pan out.

But there’s much more to his story both before arriving at Miami and since an arrest for domestic violence, on charges that were later dropped, put an end to his college football career.

Wyche now is a life coach for a number of clients, many athletes that he helps with mental health and personal problems. He’s also a motivational speaker, disseminating his message from schools and churches to prisons.
