We start this week's episode addressing the situation that unfortunately took place over the weekend involving two students, one of whom is a member of the CMU Football family. Our thoughts and prayers are with John Keller and his family as we support them during this difficult time. Coach also touches on the conclusion of spring practice as well as transitioning into May, which gives the players some time to refocus and recharge, and sees the coaching staff focused on recruiting and early film breakdown of next year's opponents. Our guest this week is third year defensive line coach Justin Hinds(21:00). Coach Hinds is experiencing the joys of fatherhood, as he and his wife welcomed a baby girl who is now just over four weeks old. He also touches on what's cooking on his grill, as well as takeaways from spring ball for his position group. Enjoy this episode and make sure to check back in every Tuesday for more new episodes.
