What are Olin Kreutz's thoughts on the Bears hiring Eric Studesville?
This hour is brought to you year NFL veteran. Did you see what Olin Kruitz did there? He moved him right there. He got the first down before the ball was ever snapped. That's a wiry old center makes moves like that. Football analyst for 670 The Score.
That team man, that team fought together. I think they got their quarterback. I think they got their coach.
How does Olin Kreutz feel about his induction into the College Football Hall of Fame?
The future looks bright here in Chicago for the Chicago Bears.
Olin Kruitz with Rahimi Harrison-Grody on 104.3 The Score.
I like a little disturbed on my Thursday morning. I like talking to Olin Fruits even more. We do it here at Rahimi Harrison Grody on 104.3 The Score. He joins us via the Circa Resort and Casino Hotline, CircaLasVegas.com. Olin, newly inducted the College Football Hall of Fame Class of 2026. That happened seconds after we talked to you that day, Olin. Congratulations.
Yeah, I really appreciate it.
What insights does Kreutz share about the Bears' coaching staff changes?
You know, that was a surprise to me. They called me the ball. They send you a ball through the mail and you're supposed to open it and to get the call from the athletic director. But the ball actually went to a house I used to live in. So an athletic director called me. He was like, oh, and congratulations. And I didn't know. First, I was thinking, you know, do they want some more money? What the hell did it want from me? Right. University of Washington. But anyway. He told me I made that College Football Hall of Fame. And I'm sure as you guys know, man, when you go through something like that, it's really humbling. It's a chance to thank everyone that helps you get to where, you know, those kind of awards, those kind of accolades.
But really just humbled and shocked. And it'll be a good time. And just grateful to actually, you know, get recognized by the College Football Hall of Fame. You know, I was at Washington. I played three seasons there.
What does Kreutz think about the importance of team dynamics in coaching?
So didn't really know if I would make it or not. I didn't have a long college career, but obviously humbled and grateful I did.
Well, and I get their email lists, and I feel like they are a foundation and an organization that they don't have a lot of stipulations as to when you get in or when you qualify. If you're good enough, you get in. It's a wonderful group of people who contributed to the game in a lot of ways.
Yeah, it definitely is a great group of people, and if you look at their board and go through it, you realize why it's run so well and why they throw such a great event every year. I've never heard complaints from people who went out and enjoyed it and took their family, and it was part of the ceremony. They always leave really satisfied at what kind of event it was and what they put on there in Las Vegas.
Olin, one of the things that's true every football offseason, really, really bad teams and really, really good teams have one thing in common. They have openings on their staffs. The Bears on the right side of that for once this year with openings after seeing Eric Biennemi move on, after seeing Declan Doyle move on. What do you make of those openings and now knowing that Eric Stoosville has been hired as the running backs and kind of reunited with Ben Johnson?
Yeah, a good sign for Chicago Bears that people actually want guys off of their staff, right? We've gone through a lot of years around here where we were trying to figure out who we wanted off of other people's staff. So a good sign that Chicago Bears are moving in the right direction. Coach Ben Johnson really puts himself together. Really strong staff and losing. Coach Bien-Ami, the standard he set in the running back room, the way he was demanding on his running backs. You could see that through Manunga's play. You saw that through Swift's play and the way they played football.
How does social media influence fans' understanding of football?
Obviously, a great reflection on Coach Bien-Ami. In the coaching business, they always say, your film is your resume. and he had really good film from this year, and Declan Doyle moves on to the Ravens, and thankfully we haven't heard anything about Al Harris yet, but it's a good sign, and it's a good sign for Chicago Bears, and we still have the play caller here in Ben Johnson, and I'm sure he's looking right now.
