Running Backs

Joe Gribowski

We continue our "consulting" work for the Packers by taking a look at the running backs. 

The future of Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon are big question marks this offseason. And how big of a priority is it for the team to draft a running back early?

Plus we chat with former Badger offensive lineman Joe Gribowski and get his thoughts on what its like for a player to deal with coach firings.

The Man Cave Podcast

Consulting: Running Backs

Dan Kasper and Brandon are back in the Man Cave with a loaded episode that hits every corner of the sports world. They break down the 2026 Baseball Hall of Fame ballot, debating who truly deserves a plaque, how PED history still clouds the process, and why players like Carlos Beltrán and Andruw Jones sit right on the edge.

The conversation then shifts to one of the most fun questions in sports fandom: who’s the most random athlete you were ever a fan of? From forgotten role players to cult heroes, the guys share their picks and react to listener responses that spark nostalgia.

They also dive into the Dodgers’ latest blockbuster spending spree, questioning competitive balance in Major League Baseball, what it means for small-market teams, and whether the sport is heading toward an inevitable lockout. Plus, NFL head coaching predictions, hot takes, and classic Man Cave debates round out the episode.

Welcome to Man Cave University, where sports history comes to life through storytelling.

In this episode, we tell the remarkable and often overlooked story of Howard “Cub” Buck — a foundational figure in football history whose impact spans generations. From Eau Claire, Wisconsin, to captaining the Wisconsin Badgers as a consensus All-American… from playing alongside Jim Thorpe at the dawn of professional football… to becoming Curly Lambeau’s first major investment with the Green Bay Packers… and even launching the University of Miami football program — Buck was there at the beginning of something big, time and time again.

This isn’t about stats or record books. It’s about the people who built the game before it was glamorous. If you love sports, history, and a great story, you’re in the right place. Welcome to Man Cave University.
