SportsTalk w/ Deuce & Steve Geller featuring Bobby Hebert

Mike and Deuce sit down with Darren Rizzi, Asst. Head Coach/Special Teams Coordinator, to cover the new kickoff rule changes, and what a special teams coordinator looks for in prospects compared to offense and defense coordinators.

Mike and Deuce are joined by Michael Hodges, Linebackers Coach, on what changes we might see with our linebackers this next year, continuing the recent dominance of the Saints' run-defense, and Hodges' history at Texas A&M helping to build his connection with his players.

Mike and Deuce are joined by Joe Woods, Defensive Coordinator, to discuss where the defense is heading into a loaded offensive draft, where the defense could improve during this offseason, and what we might see from Woods this offseason.

Mike and Deuce discuss with Jeff Ireland, Asst. GM/Vice Pres./College Personnel, about the news surrounding James Hurst retirement announcement, if that will affect their boards going into the Draft, and the process of finding their prospects over this past year.

Mike Hoss and Deuce McAllister talk with Michael Parenton, Director of Pro Personnel, about finding the players they love, how many players have earned that 1st round grade, and if this OL class could be the one for the history books.

From 'Inside Black & Gold' (subscribe here): Some big news on the eve of the 2024 NFL Draft: James Hurst has called it a career, and that makes for even more questions along the offensive line. So what changes? Jeff Nowak dives in on that subject, the potential for a big day of draft trades and a lot more to kick off this final pre-draft edition of Inside Black & Gold.
