BOWLING GREEN, Ohio – The weekly Falcons Nest Coaches Show presented by Fricker's, returns Monday night (Oct. 19) on Falcon Sports Radio Network stations with a trio of guests. The show will begin at 6 p.m. with Mike and Jan Wilcox head football coach Eddie George joining the Voice of the Falcons, Todd Walker. Walker will then be joined by head volleyball coach Alex DelPiombo at 6:30 p.m. followed by head men's soccer coach Eric Nichols at 6:45 p.m. All three interviews will be in-person at the Bowling Green Fricker's.
For fans in attendance of the show, there will be free appetizers provided by Fricker's available on the tables when guests arrive. Fans in attendance will also have the opportunity to win Frick Bucks during commercial breaks with interactive segments.
This year's show will be hosted in a special room at Fricker's with a maximum capacity of 55. Seating will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. To ensure an enjoyable and timely experience for all fans, there will not be autograph opportunities — but this creates a more interactive, conversational atmosphere to connect with BGSU coaches and fans.
Fans are encouraged to submit questions by clicking HERE. You can also interact with Todd Walker on Twitter at @FalconsVoice. For fans unable to make the show in person at Fricker's, the show can be heard locally on WFRO 99.1 FM, 100.7 FM in Toledo, 1280 WONW in Defiance and 970 WFUN in Ashtabula. There will also be streams through BGSUFalcons.com and "The Varsity Network" app from Learfield Sports.
The BGSU football team will be starting a two-game road swing over the next couple weeks. The Falcons will head to Buffalo this upcoming Saturday (Oct. 24) for a 3:30 p.m. kick against the Bulls. From there, the Orange and Brown will head to Western Michigan on Oct. 31. The next home game for BGSU is set for Tuesday, Nov. 10, hosting Kent State.
The BGSU volleyball team is coming off a pair of wins over the weekend, topping both Buffalo and Akron on the road. The Falcons are now solely in first place in the Mid-American Conference standings with a 7-1 MAC record while being 15-4 on the year. Bowling Green will be back home this weekend, hosting Central Michigan for a 6 p.m. first serve Friday (Oct. 23) and a 4 p.m. start on Saturday (Oct. 24).
The BGSU men's soccer program has won four straight games, including the 200th win for Coach Nichols.
