    Ep 97: UNM Lobo wing Filip Borovicanin (TG 01.30.25)

    In Episode 97 of the Talking Grammer podcast, I have a conversation with UNM guard Filip Borovicanin, the 6-foot-9 transfer from Arizona whose progression over the past month has been one of the reasons the Lobos are tied for first at the midway point of Mountain West play. We talk getting discovered in Serbia, his time at Arizona, finding confidence at UNM, his relationship with teammate and fellow Serb Jovan Milicevic and the support of his father.

    Ep 96: UNM Lobo forward Jovan Milicevic (TG 01.22.25)

    In Episode 96 of the Talking Grammer podcast, I have a conversation with UNM Lobos forward Jovan Milicevic, the 6-foot-10, 237-pound freshman who has been playing his best basketball recently as the Lobos have been hitting their stride in Mountain West play. We talk about his Serbian roots, role on the team, playing with a great point guard and for a sarcastic coach, and lots more.

    Ep 95: Talking Mountain West hoops with the Field of 68 (TG 01.14.25)

    In Episode 95 of the Talking Grammer podcast, The Field of 68's Rob Dauster and I do a cross-over (both podcasts broadcasted this), talking all things Mountain West hoops as the conference season is about 1/3 of the way done. We talk postseason chances, contenders, pretenders and go over the big surprises so far around the league while also setting up things to come.

    Ep 94: UNM Lobo coach Richard Pitino (TG 12.20.24)

    In Episode 94 of the Talking Grammer podcast, I have a midseason check in with UNM Lobo men's basketball coach Richard Pitino, whose team is 9-3. We cover a lot of ground, from player updates and his thoughts on UNM's new Athletic Director and new football coach to how his son, Jack Pitino, taunts referees and his dad, Rick Pitino, isn't a very good gift giver. Before the interview, I also talk some more about Donovan Dent's huge 40point game vs. VCU.

    Ep 93: UNM Lobo point guard Donovan Dent (TG 11.03.24)

    In Episode 93 of the Talking Grammer podcast, I have a conversation with UNM Lobo junior point guard Donovan Dent, who takes over as the lead guard in this, his junior season, after having shared the backcourt his first two seasons with two other ball-dominant guards. Dent, a preseason ALl-Mountain West selection, talks about his role on the team now, his evolution on the court and the special connection he's developed on the court with one teammate.

    Ep 92: Mountain West Commissioner Gloria Nevarez (TG 10.17.24)

    In Episode 92 of the Talking Grammer podcast, I have a conversation with Mountain West Commissioner Gloria Nevarez in Las Vegas, Nev., at the 2024-25 Mountain West Men's Basketball Media Days event at Resorts Worlds hotels and casino. We primarily talk conference realignment, football breaking off, future Mountain West members (including New Mexico State?) and much more.

    Ep 91: UNM Lobo Associate Head Coach Isaac Chew (TG 10.02.24)

    In Episode 91 of the Talking Grammer podcast, I had UNM Lobo Associate Head Coach Isaac Chew on a live show talking about this year's team, recruiting and more and we took viewer questions live on the show. Now in his fourth season with the Lobos, Chew oversees the recruiting and many other aspects of the program, but is quick to point out the process is a team effort the entire staff gets involved in.

    Ep 90: Retiring 'Voice of the Aggies' Jack Nixon (TG 09.27.24)

    In Episode 90 of the Talking Grammer podcast, I talk with Jack Nixon, who after 45 years of calling New Mexico State University sporting events on the radio will be retiring after this season. The "Voice of the Aggies" will call his final Aggie/Lobo football game this weekend. Sportscasting wasn't always his dream. We also talk about "The Shades", the sunglasses-wearing rock band he and friends formed in high school in Omaha and, of course, walk down memory lane through his career.
