Lake Forest hosts Carmel Catholic Friday night in what should be a terrific non-conference match up. This week, publisher Jon J. Kerr had a conversation with Corsairs head coach and former Chicago Bear, Jason McKie.

Topics discussed:

* How Carmel matches up against Lake Forest

* Who are the Corsairs’ best players and why

* How the Carmel rebuild is going in Year 4

* Competing in the merged ESCC/CCL conference

* Thoughts on the Bears in 2023 as Jason also serves at an analyst for ESPN 1000

* Coaching with Olin Kreutz, the former Bear and Carmel offensive line coach

The conversation was done over the phone so the audio quality is not terrific. But I hope you enjoy the entire interview with Coach McKie! I know I did. A very engaging guy and someone who is doing a great job at Carmel.

Should be a lot of fun at Varsity Field Friday night.
