In the late 1960's a smashing running back from Shelby, Ohio arrived at Murray State. His name was Rick Fisher. A MSU hall of famer since 1981, Fisher's records with the Racers are still standing the test of time as he's still the fourth all-time rusher in program history. On today's podcast, Fisher talks of how of he came to MSU, the crazy life of professional football, his great run as head coach at Murray High School (1990-2005) and the now famous 1994 Kentucky state championship game that still has people talking because of its strange ending. Wayback Wednesday takes us back to a MSU football win at EKU in 2004 and MSU Athletics recently secured its 30th straight semester of a 3.0 GPA for its combined 350+ student-athletes.

In Murray State Football lore, one of the biggest plays in the 100-year plus history of the program icame from kicker by Shane Andrus. In 2002, the Racers hosted the No. 2 Eastern Illinois Panthers, led by quarterback Tony Romo at Roy Stewart Stadium, and by the end of the day, Andrus had his moment. He booted a 52-yard field goal on the final play to give the Racers a share of the Ohio Valley Conference title. Among those who remember that day are the Voice of the Racers Neal Bradley and EIU's Mike Bradd, MSU Head Coach Joe Pannunzio and Andrus.
