Andrew Schmidt joins Colter Nuanez for another edition of Talkin’ Schmidt. The guys wonder if this Griz team is like the late-’80s Cleveland Cavaliers, good but never great, with an elite offense and a defense that still doesn’t have the players, and Schmidt looks back at Bobby Hauck and what changed in Missoula.
Plus: why Eli Gillman is the greatest big-play skill player in Big Sky history and deserves a statue, the keys to knocking Jordan Cook off his spot against Idaho State on Senior Day, whether a cupcake or a real test is better the week before the Brawl of the Wild, and a message for Oregon State fans.
LISTEN on the Big Sky Breakdown podcast:
Talkin’ Schmidt is presented by Holloway & Hulling.
