Description
Today we were joined by the Executive Director of the Michigan High School Athletic Association, Mark Uyl. Since the MHSAA came out with their fall sports guidelines for high schools throughout Michigan, there have been a lot of questions – so we wanted to have Mark on to get some clarity. Huge asked Mark many of the questions and concerns brought to us from parents, coaches, and players. Mark also updated us on some of the things that need to happen in order for a few of those fall sports to start competition. Huge also asked the question to the audience - Do you think it’s safe to allow boy’s soccer, girl’s volleyball, and girl’s swimming and diving this fall?
In our second hour we kept the conversation rolling about high school sports, covid numbers/date, whether it’s safe to play, and much more. We were joined by Graham Couch to get his thoughts on these things and to get his thoughts on the B10 after some new medical data was released yesterday. He and Huge really think there’s no possible way they will reverse what they’ve already done. During this hour, news broke that the Milwaukee Bucs are boycotting Game 5 today following what happened to Jacob Blake over the weekend.
In our final hour were joined by the Head Coach of the Michigan State Basketball team, Tom Izzo. Huge and Tom discussed the atmosphere of the nation right now following the shooting of Jacob Blake over the weekend. Tom gave us his perspective on what racial injustices have been occurring, but also how we cannot paint everyone with a broad brush. Tom also gave us some insight into what the conversation has been like between him and his team. Huge and Tom both agreed and disagreed on some things but were on the same page that the conversation and actions need to happen before things can really be fixed. To wrap up the show, we were joined by Dr. K to get a Covid-19 update with it’s relation to our daily lives and sports.
