Celebrating Jim Donovan: Chuck Kyle, legendary head football coach at St. Ignatius, joins the show

But our next guest is someone, you know, quite well. And also you covered championship teams from him and your colleagues with his daughter too. You know who it is? Check out is my coach. That's you. Thanks for being here. Iops, thank you for being here. I know you guys have such a special. We do, we do, we do. I have to tell you when they came, when, when uh Chico was, you know, the coach at Saint Ignatius and all of a sudden he had a team and man, we started covering them and he gave us great access and it was just amazing and they were a reporter from Boston. I know it was, it was uh I mean, just a, a tremendous program and, you know, I, you know, just about a year and a half a year ago, maybe we were in another studio here doing the long interview with Chuck about his retirement and it, and it was such a great list. Memories, wasn't it? Oh, there was no script. There was no script because, right, you just sit here and have a conversation teleprompter for this guy. I'm struggling with the cards. But he has it down so much fun and, you know, Mondays, Mondays, we're gonna miss you on that, on that recap. That's the one thing, you know, when, when you're a coach in the game and here comes the microphone right after the game and you know, they're asking these questions and the coach is sitting there going, I don't know, let me go see the film or let me have a day to figure out what took place on that plane and on Mondays. Well, he, uh, he would give such an analysis that you're going. All right, everybody settle down. Now, we figured what happened? Let's go and get the next game. You know, I have to, I have to tell you what I loved covering his teams because they were so talented, but they were so classy. His teams were so classy and the moments that I loved, I mean, I loved covering them when they would win the game, but when they would come back to Cleveland that night, no matter what the hour was ok. And a lot of times it was late, they would come back to Saint Ignatius and the Sullivan gymnasium would be packed and it was just, wasn't that unbelievable. Yeah, but you two are both legends coach Kyle. Thank you for being here. I appreciate you. It's, it's, it's an honor and, and, uh, we'll stay in contact. Yes, no doubt about it. Thank you so much.
