New Liberty League Football show

Frank Rossi, the voice of Union College football and Eric Ren, a former RPI student-athlete, have put together a new internet radio show.

"In the HuddLLe" obviously a play on Liberty League will air at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/ normally on Sundays at 7:30 p.m.

The show will run 90 minutes and the first show happened last night (Wednesday 9/24) because the league kicks off conference play this weekend with these matchups.

WPI (3-0) at RPI (2-0)
Susquehanna (1-2) at Hobart (2-0)
Rochester (0-2) at Union (1-1)
St. Lawrence (0-3) at Merchant Marine (1-2)

You can listen to the first show here.

I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet, but the guests from the last night's show were

Rochester Head Coach Scott Greene
RPI Quarterback Jimmy Robertson
WPI Linebacker Matt Boudreau (Rensselaer native and La Salle graduate)
Merchant Marine Academy radio voice Seth Cantor (a fellow Ithaca alumnus)

Ninety minutes seems lengthy, especially when just focusing on one league, but the two seem to also want to make the show interactive and take calls from listeners, which would make for an interesting segment.

I'm in the process of trying to contact Frank and get more information, but for now I'll leave you with Robertson's take on the show (since he was already on it).

"It's something pretty cool," Robertson said. "I know a lot of guys were listening to it from around the league. It's just going to give all these teams exposure, not just within Upstate New York and the Liberty League, but throughout the whole nation.

Here's what Robertson thought about being one of the very first guests on the show.

"It feels good to be on the inaugural show," Robertson said. "I feel pretty honored that they wanted me to be part of it."
