In this episode, we’re joined by Kevin Brou — former Ivory Coast prop with one of the most unique journeys in rugby.
Born and raised in the United States, Kevin carved out a professional career that took him from the MLR to France, before an unexpected and remarkable path led him to represent Ivory Coast on the international stage.
Kevin shares the incredible story of how he became eligible and ultimately pulled on the Elephants jersey, along with honest insights into the realities of international rugby outside the traditional powerhouses.
We dive deep into the challenges and opportunities of growing the game in Ivory Coast, the evolution of rugby in America, and what rugby needs globally to continue expanding in new markets.
