On this week’s edition of “Hanni and the ‘Hawks”, Brian welcomes home Luke Grimm to look back on his fantastic career, including two bowl appearances under Lance Leipold. The former Raymore-Peculiar standout starts by talking about his controversial decision to pick KU despite growing up in Tiger country, but what a tremendous choice that proved to be. Grimm shares what it was like in the final season under Les Miles and KU’s rapid rise once Leipold took over in his 2nd year on campus. Grimm posted big numbers on the receiving end of passes from both Jalon Daniels and Jason Bean, and thus, weighs in the talents and legacies of both.

Finally, as someone who spent more than a year in the LA Chargers organization, Grimm compares and contrasts the styles of Leipold and Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh. Catch all of that and more and this week’s episode of “Hanni and the ‘Hawks.”
