Cully

Joe and Jeff were incredible people, worked just as hard, if not harder than our scholarship players, with the same expectations of being on time for meetings, watching film, traveling to games and performing when their number was called. Jeffery did this while serving out country as well, which is even more impressive. We talk about NIL's, the transfer portal, and locker rooms missing out on great teammates if walk-on opportunities are taken away

A Husky Talk that is worth its weight in GOLD, former All Big East Linebacker Moe Lloyd, who won a Grey Cup in his 5 seasons in the CFL, comes on the show. We have tried to connect several times, but Moe has an extremely busy schedule.

Between coaching a state Championship team in Florida as a Co-Defensive Coordinator, being a sales specialist at a car dealership, and now getting into Real Estate after becoming licensed.
His career on the field was spectacular, however I am more impressed with what he has done off it. Coaching, mentoring, helping kids from his time in Connecticut to now being in Florida. Truly an incredible person, I am so proud of him for all he has accomplished. Having 4 kids and being a great father. This was a special interview and when you hear his journey, you will understand why. Love you Moe!

Husky Talk returns with former UConn Quarterback David Pindell. He shares a wild journey with us and was an absolute pleasure to interview.

David never played youth football and started in 9th grade at a small school in Maryland that was not the best program. Not only beginning a new sport, but he was also placed at the most difficult position on the field at QB. In the offseason, he worked with his coach on watching film, along with mechanics necessary for QBs to have success.

David has a tremendous work ethic and by his senior year, he led his team to an undefeated season, playing outstanding. He was a duel threat QB, able to run and had a strong arm to make any throw. Being recruited late, he ended up at Lackawanna, which is one of the best junior colleges in the country. He tore it up and did very well for them.

Coach Randy Edsall recruited him when he was still at Maryland, when he took the UConn job in 2017, he signed David to go with him. As a Husky, David had a great senior year, throwing for nearly 2000 yards, 20 TD passes, along with 1,142 yards rushing with 10 TDs, he did it all.

David went undrafted but attended minicamps as a Wide Receiver, Running Back, Kick/Punt Returner and did not make a roster. He made his way up north to the CFL with the Montreal as a QB, which is where he wanted to stay.

COVID happened, the CFL did not play and David was putting his highlight films all over social media. Calls came in from Japan, where American Football has grown in popularity and there are a few leagues. After working out, receiving several offers, David signed and has been their ever since. I believe he will receive another opportunity to play QB in the NFL, he is too dynamic of a player and deserves another shot.

A polarizing episode of Husky Talk with a truly special UConn Track alumni, Dr. Trisha Bailey. She is an inspiration to all of us, who turned a small medical supplies business into a juggernaut that operates through 7 states. Her net worth is astounding, Dr. Bailey is a successful entrepreneur, performed extremely well working on Wall Street, her memoir is a very emotional read titled: Unbroken "The Triumphant Story Of A Womans Journey."
This show was produced by Kelly Greene, who is a LMHC and did a spectacular job helping me prepare to interview Dr. Bailey. Her research and input was instrumental, I am grateful, as well as thank her for being there for me.
Dr. Baily grew up in Jamica, her grandmother had an incredible impact on her life from an early age. I saw her face glowing as she told the story of her grandmother walking several miles just to make sure the family had food to feed not only them, but the everyone in that area. Afterwards, Dr. Bailey's grandmother would drink broth or whatever was left because she made sure nobody went unfed.
I am not going to begin to try to share Dr. Bailey's journey. You can listen to her journey from moving to the United States at age 13, attending Weaver High in Hartford before coming to UConn on a track scholarship.
Life after graduation, she started out working in different careers, while overcoming obstacles, adversity, and trauma. Dr. Bailey started her first business in 2011 which distributed medical supplies to Medicare patients. She stressed being kind to people always, giving back and not needing to be a millionaire to do so. Dr. Bailey is spiritual and believes we can all help by donating money or our time to those in need. A true philanthropist, who donates to UConn, along with many other charities, she is an amazing person, and I thank her for sitting down for Husky Talk!

The best sports show in Worcester, MA is back on 97.9 FM Unity Radio, executive producer Ernie Floyd, Moneyline. Featuring Dave Schuman, the Voice of REASON Frank Cristiano, and hosted by Steve Cully.

We talk about the week in sports, we cover the NFL and College Football. Dave talks about the QB play in the NFL, especially the rookie quarterbacks, being mediocre overall. Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen are on a different level than the rest of the league.

Frank mentions Caleb Williams with the Bears and how well he has been playing. The weapons his team has surrounded him with and someone like Carolina never gave QB Bryce Young any weapons.

Dave and I mention how if a team can play in 2 tight end sets or use a fullback, they will gash NFL teams running the ball because they don't have the personnel to match up. We go over the plight of the Cowboys and dominance of the entire NFC North Division.

Forty Second Brewrey is a proud sponsor of Moneyline. Steve Darby is a friend and owner, they are located in Kingston, MA. With a variety of pilsners, IPAs, and Lagers, they also have a beautiful tasting room.

Geremy Davis is our guest on Husky Talk. A dynamic, talented, big Wide Receiver for UConn and playmaker. A pleasure to interview him, just an awesome dude. He is a big guy at 6'2 and had tremendous speed. Geremy played well at UConn, which led to him becoming a 6th round draft pick for the NY Jets and a career in the NFL.

President Sean Rabinowitz is a great friend and consultant. Husky Huddle along with Husky Talk has grown to become the best coverage for UConn Football.
Husky Talk returns with the power of former UConn Football Defensive Lineman Ron Gamble. A fascinating story from playing a one season of youth football, which turned out to be a nightmare, Ron was a big boy and at 10 years old was playing with 12- to 13-year-old kids who knocked him around. Not a fun experience.
Ron played at a smaller school at Maryland and was the starting Running Back while the best athlete on the team played QB. He and his father went to a company with all his game film, where Ron sat for hours picking out his best plays to put together a VHS highlight tape. Very time consuming and hard, they sent out 20 tapes. Ron shares a funny story of a school actually sending his film back with a note.
He was offered by the UConn Huskies and Howard University. His official visit to Howard was.....well..... Ill let him tell you what happened. At UConn, his visit was great, and he committed on the spot to play fullback.
As we all know, life tends to throw you lemons, and we know not to make lemonade, we take two oranges and chuck them back at life. Because of injuries, Ron was moved to Defensive End, where he never played before. A steep learning curve, Ron fought through and did his best being on the field as a true Freshmen.
However, after that year, Ron became a dominant force on the Defensive Line. Putting on weight, grinding it out lifting, he turned into a beast. From his sophomore year on, Ron kicked ass and took names. He was a senior when I was a freshman and I was terrified to look at him. Ron threw me around like a sack of shit. He had a great career and majored in Communications.
Now, he is in law enforcement, working as a school resource officer and coaches high school football, along with having 4 kids. His 13-year-old is a talent, plays football and Ron will be coaching him. I probably said 5 words to Ron when I was a freshman. Loved talking with him, a very nice and funny dude, we wish him the best.
UConn Football is on a roll because Mike Burton and his team have been raising money for Bleeding Blue For Good our NIL collective. We have to step up and donate because every dollar count. It's not all about the huge donations. We need more UConn Alumni to be involved. Donate $200 or $500 dollars, as long as more people can give, we will have continued success. Mike was kind enough to have Kelly Greene and I sit in his suite for the Temple game. I witnessed how much we have improved and the outstanding talent that we brought in. Mike had laid the foundation for us to back where we belong as a great program. Please go to www.bleedingblueforgood.org and give whatever you can.
