Sports Buffet Classic: Doug Day Reviews Blacksburg-Gretna Boys BB 05-06

Doug Day is one of the better guys you'll find around. Back in 2005-2006, I spoke with the head boys basketball coach at Blacksburg, after they defeated Gretna. The game was at Franklin County High School as part of the Member One Classic. Here's a classic flashback with Doug Day.

Tom Brown Talks Lakers History (And Danny Hurley)

When I get together with former Lynchburg area basketball coach, Tom Brown, we can talk and talk and talk. "Laker" Tom (as he was known when he first interacted) can always go down memory lane with historical takes (on his favorite teams especially) and he gave some thoughts on the Lakers history, and does Danny Hurley want to become involved in that history? 

Sports Talk with Girl Dads 6-8-24

Cam Shepherd (Brookville Boys Basketball Coach) and I spent some time on Saturday, June 8th talking about Danny Hurley. As of recording, he still had not made a decision if he was going to leave U Conn and become the Lakers Head Coach. We talked about that, and we also dipped our feet in the water, of high school coaches, coaching where they played. All that on "Sports Talk with Girl Dads"

Matt Klein Talks LCA Boys Basketball 5-18-24

Matt Klein is the new head coach at Liberty Christian Academy. Paul Redgate, the former boys coach, shifts to coach the girls upon Heather Stephens stepping down as head girls coach. Matt Klein talked about coming to LCA from New Covenant, what he expects out of the Seminole District and more.

Mark Lineburg Talks Brookville Football

A week ago Friday, I had a chance to catch up with the new face of the Bees (who's on a return), Mark Lineburg. Coach was very gracious with his time and talked about leaders that he respects. We talked about the history of Radford Football (his father is the legendary, Norm Lineburg). We also touched on his previous time at Brookville and what he wants to see this time.

Troy Harris Talks Rustburg Basketball

The Northside Vikings don't lose in their annual Holiday tournament very often. The Rustburg Red Devils knocked them off in the semifinals on Thursday night. Rustburg will now play Tunstall in Friday's Final. Northside takes on LCA in the 3rd place game on Friday. Troy Harris shared some thoughts with me on Thursday night about his team's performance against the Vikings, as well as the season to date.

Joe Caruso Talks Coaching His Kids

Joe Caruso, Head Baseball Coach at Appomattox High School, talked with me how it is to coach his kids. We recorded the interview around Father's Day, & talked about the experiences of coaching Dylan & Alex. Dylan has now joined his dad's coaching staff, we talked about that transition, as well as who are just some of the dad's he admires as they coach their kids. Joe Caruso is one of the best & I always appreciate his time on "The Sports Buffet"

Sports Buffet Flashback: Tom Marshall Talks Heritage Soccer (April 2008)

In a flashback from the Sports Buffet Podcast, I did a preseason interview in 2008 with then Heritage Soccer Coach, Tom Marshall. I've gotten to know his son Nathan, and I said "Oh, I'll post an interview I did with your dad." The apple didn't fall from the tree, as Nathan is a soccer enthusiast. Here's Tom Marshall on "The Sports Buffet Podcast"

Who is Logan Sherrill?

One thing I love to do on The Sports Buffet, is take you behind the curtain to where you can get to know coaches, the people you see on TV and more. For one of the first episodes of "Who Is", I was fortunate enough to speak with WDBJ's lead anchor, Mr. Logan Sherrill. Logan (who is a big pro wrestling fan) shared how he got into the new business, & talked about how he became a pro wrestling fan. He shares that and so much more. Logan Sherrill on "The Sports Buffet"
