Gator Tales #176: 30 Years With Mick Hubert

With the athletic season nearly complete, what better time to reflect than now? But this week, we aren’t talking about this past campaign – we are taking you back to 1989 and the arrival of the voice that has become synonymous with the Orange and Blue. Mick Hubert is celebrating 30 years with the Gators, and if you talk to him, it isn’t out the question that he has 30 more left in him. Host Adam Schick has a wide ranging-ranging conversation with Mick about his upbringing in the Midwest (1:24), where he developed his passion for broadcasting and the people he looked up to (3:30), his arrival in Gainesville and the Spurrier Era (8:38), how a random interaction at church oddly predicted one of his favorite calls (13:24), his meticulous preparation routine (24:12), his favorite calls (27:00), memorable interactions with fans (35:33), the relationships with his broadcast partners (38:10) and what keeps him going after all these years (43:34).
