About Gregath & Hooks
Gregath & Hooks is a Nebraska sports talk show with a strong Lincoln pulse. It moves like live morning radio: quick greetings, bits of home life, caller invitations, guest hits, and sudden pivots from one scoreboard worry to the next. Cornhuskers coverage anchors the feed. Nebrasketball gets detailed attention, from road-game skepticism at Rutgers to bubble positioning, Big Ten Tournament implications, Fred Hoardberg debates, and whether individual players are finally finding a role. The football conversation stays close too. Coaching reactions, wide receiver talk, Husker memories, and the emotional machinery of Nebraska fandom all surface alongside baseball previews and local hoops check-ins. The show is not sealed inside one sport. Super Bowl hangovers, Chiefs-Eagles arguments, turf complaints, props contests, fantasy football chatter, golf documentaries, Champions League games, and streaming sports shows all drift through the morning. That sprawl is part of the identity. It sounds like sports fans who know the local stakes, know each other too well, and still want to argue the spread before the next break. Guests bring outside texture. Evan Bland adds Omaha World Herald reporting around Husker baseball and player development. Marco Bianco brings WagerTalk.com betting perspective around the Super Bowl. Other named guests and callers add the feeling of a local circuit rather than a polished national desk. The tone is blunt, joking, and occasionally sentimental, especially around the move from ESPN Lincoln to KFOR. It can be nostalgic one minute and immediately back to Rutgers, Wisconsin, or a bad patch of Super Bowl grass the next. The show suits listeners who want Cornhuskers talk with personality, not sterile recap audio. It is for Nebraska fans who care about the game, the line, the caller reaction, and the little station-world stories around it. Gregath & Hooks stands apart by making local sports feel social. The analysis matters, but so does the familiar rhythm of two voices rolling through another Lincoln morning.
Made for: Nebraska fans who want daily Cornhuskers coverage with local radio energy, caller texture, and room for NFL, fantasy football, NBA, betting, basketball, baseball, and pop-sports tangents.
What sets it apart: The show blends serious Nebraska sports stakes with loose morning-show chemistry, making Big Ten road records, Super Bowl arguments, and station memories feel part of the same local conversation.
In their own words
Gregath and Hooks is a high energy sports talk show that feels like two friends sitting around talking sports. Tune in everyday from 9-11am to hear the best coverage of your Nebraska Cornhuskers. You will also get plenty of NFL, fantasy football, and NBA talk. This is “your teams, your town, your show.”
