Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Gary Grubbs on Legends with Bob Ghetti
Q: Did you ever imagine you would star in 170 film and TV credits?
No, I didn't; the path unfolded slowly with roles varying in size, and opportunities came from being in the right place at the right time, meeting people, and staying persistent.
Jay Hopson
Q: How did you balance the demands of coaching with personal health challenges?
Hopson opens up about his cancer battles, the toll on energy, and the determination to return to football, crediting support from his wife and medical team for enabling him to continue coaching at a high level.
Kay James
Q: Can you describe the player Janice Felder and how you came to recruit her alongside Tanya Bullock?
Janice was a standout from Macomb, but I saw another talented forward in Tanya Bullock. By presenting a compelling combination of family atmosphere and opportunity, I recruited both to build a strong, complementary duo that anchored our programs. Janice's willingness to adapt and her sister-like bond with teammates helped us shape the roster strategically.
Kay James
Q: Coach, how did you build Berry College's basketball program from scratch and lead them to the National Small College Championship?
I recruited locally and prioritized players who fit into our family atmosphere, then gradually expanded my recruiting footprint as I understood higher-level high school programs. The key was blending players who could compete, stick together, and buy into a fast-paced, full-court press that maximized our strengths.
Steve Knight
Q: What was Coach Taylor like, and what was Southern Miss Baseball like in that era?
Knight explains Pete Taylor's humorous, insightful style and how Southern Miss Baseball was being built from the ground up, highlighting the strong leadership and the early success they achieved under Taylor and the program's competitive nature at the time.
