09/26/16 Joel Blank Show Hour 1

The show talks about the sudden and tragic losses of Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez and golf legend Arnold Palmer over the weekend. Blank and Travis discuss how Palmer paved the way for golfers like Tiger Woods. The guys talk about just how close a locker room is and the bond players have for each other. Joel mentions how much Fernandez meant to his Marlin teammates, and how the team chartered buses to take players to console Fernandez family. Also, the guys dive into the news of LSU firing Les Miles and how quick LSU made the decision. Auburn may have been the nail in the coffin but losing to Alabama every year made it tougher to keep him around. The guys then dive into the next natural question about who will be the next head coach for LSU. Naturally, Tom Herman drives the conversation and there are a few other coaches that Travis thinks LSU will target. Joel also discusses how Cougar fans should feel about the attraction Herman brings. The show talks about the name of the Cougars and how important Herman is the Houston’s staying power.
