GFP - The emergency pod w/Greg Sundberg

[BWahlberg]

Greg joined us for the first 50 minutes or so after the announcement of Bobby's retirement and gave us a bit more in-depth look at what life was like the last 48-72 hours within the athletic department. From there we talk on our takeaways from the convo and our thoughts in general regarding the retirement announcement + the future with Bobby Kennedy. In closing, we had over 80 fan questions! We make sure to get to them, or just give thanks to the fan who asked on a repeated topic.

It was a really good pod, it felt good to talk it out and to reflect on the legacy of Bobby Hauck and look ahead to the exciting future of Grizzly football. Links here for web/spotify/apple - or just search up Griz Fan Podcast in your preferred podcasting platform.

Had a 3+ hr commute this morning and the episode was a welcome companion. Feeling good about Kennedy. And the assessment of Bobby Hauck's tenure (separately and combined) was fair. I reckon it's easier to do so after said tenure is over. Well done, gents

Disappointed you could only get 3 and a half hours....my expectations with closer to 5

I'm about an hour in right now.

I hope my comment didn’t come off as mean lol it just did make me chuckle.

Obviously it had been a long 24 hours for everyone in the department, he wasn’t forced to go sit in front of a mic and speak candidly about what had happened….its admirable that he took personal to do this for the fans.

 

[BWahlberg]

Oh we had fun with it - not mean at all. It sure seems like all hands on deck from the entire dept and they're doing all they can to help with this transition.

I heard a part that said Monte Gilman is gone? Where did he transfer and do they have a team that will go after Eli?

He decided that school was not his thing. Eli and Dawn have both stated today that Missoula and Griz football is home and family. Eli even said when he goes back to MN it feels like vacation because how Missoula has adopted him.

Monte returned home to MN. He basically just decided college wasn't for him.

Monte returned home to MN. He basically just decided college wasn't for him.

Monte was fun to watch on the field. I hope he finds the path that works for him moving forward. College is trying for many. Add in athletics and it can be absolutely overwhelming. I have no doubt all of his family will support him in his next journey.

I loved Monte and really hoped to see his big play ability next year. That being said, did anyone else notice that when Monte returned to the sidelines after one of his plays, he always had the look on his face like he just survived a near death experience and was joking about it later with his buddies.
