Season 7 - Episode 28: Spring Vibes and Superstar Returns

The Eastern Insider Podcast wrapped up Season 7 with a high-energy finale as hosts Tom Helmer and Greg Steiner were joined by EMU Head Football Coach Chris Creighton, quarterback Noah Kim, and cheer captain Elena Davis. Coach Creighton reflected on a productive spring, emphasizing growth, chemistry, and innovation—like crossover drills that helped players understand both sides of the ball. Noah Kim discussed his transition from Michigan State, praising EMU’s culture and his evolving connection with teammates. Elena Davis, fresh off a top-7 finish at NCA Nationals, shared her pride in the cheer team’s resilience and excitement for what’s ahead. The biggest headline, however, was the announcement that NFL star and EMU legend Maxx Crosby is officially returning to the program as Assistant GM. Crosby will lead a player mentorship initiative, inspire future “MAXX” position defenders, and kickstart the “Maxx Challenge,” matching NIL donations up to $100,000.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
