I have been extremely lucky to have outstanding guests on Husky Talk; however, this episode is easily the best I've experienced. Two UConn Football legends, who developed a bond, and became the best of friends, even years later, came on.
I have to thank Robert Belcuore for making this happen and scheduling the episode. Brian Kozlowski, I remember being terrified to interview him and he could not be a nicer guy. I appreciate both men making time for a podcast that will be a huge help to me, an extremely kind, selfless gesture and shows how UConn Alumni will always support each other.
We had an absolute blast, and I was able to listen to of the best players in UConn Football history reminisce, tell hilarious stories. From the moment Robert and Koz met, to when they became close. Hearing about Koz losing his father days before a game and Robert being there for him demonstrates a connection beyond football. Koz played in the game after his father passed because he knew it's what he would want him to do.
Stories about the crew packing in Carriage House apartments. Campus was not like it is now, with plenty of apartment complexes, Celeron, and another place were the options. Robert talks about how they have many roommates and because rooms were small, mattresses were thrown on the floor. Which was hilarious because when I lived there over the summer with my friends, we did the exact same thing. Bodies were everywhere, the only difference was I used an air mattress, which was popped about 5 different times of course!
Watch the show, I don't want to give too long of a description. For me, it was so cool watching incredible players, who pushed each other on the field, in the weight room, training all summer, to get better.
