They had Nolan Weidner of the Post Standard on as a guest.
 
One of the topics of conversation was the differences in dealing with Doug Marrone as opposed to HCSS.
 
Nolan said that he was doing a story on SS and was invited to his house. In all the years Nolan, Bud & Learch covered Marrone they never had a conversation with his wife Helen. Any mention of his children was also off limits.
 
When SS took over as HC, Missy, SS's wife gave them their cell phone number should they ever need to get a hold of her or Scott. At the house Nolan was introduced to Wolfgang who is the quarterback for FM and their 14 year old daughter Elsa who was very friendly & buoyant.
 
Nolan was given a tour of the family room where various pictures and awards were on display of both HCSS & Wolfgang.
 
The conclusion was that Missy "Elliot" Schafer could quite possibly be the football programs version of Julie Boeheim.
 
While HCDM had a very thin skin the hope and indications are that SS is not that way at all.
 
Nolan had said that when Marrone's announcement was made that he'd be leaving, Weidner felt SS was the only logical candidate.
 
They are all optimistic about the direction of the program and feel it's in great hands. The hires have been excellent and the results on the recruiting trail, save for the few defections, have been outstanding.
 
I tried to see if there was a podcast of the interview but there is something wrong, at this time, with the 1260 web site. I have duly informed the station.
