Summary
We are jam-packed for this mid-week show! During our "Seven from 77," Jon discusses the ramifications of Ronnie Bell's season-ending injury (5:30) and reacts to the biggest stories of the weekend in college football, including Washington's loss to Montana (13:30). Then, former Athletic Director Bill Martin and former SID Bruce Madej stop by to reflect on their memories from September 11, 2001 (30:00), talk through some of the key decisions they had to make locally after the attacks (35:30), and discuss the security measures they had to take at the Big House (44:45). We wrap up with defensive back Brad Hawkins, who talks about the defense’s performance against Western Michigan (51:00), his impressions of the new-look coaching staff after Week 1 (55:00), and his early thoughts on Saturday’s matchup with Washington (56:50).
