Full disclosure: I played high-school football for Brock Huard’s dad, Mike, at Puyallup High School. Brock, of course, following in the steps of his older brother Damon and helping to carve a path for his younger brother Luke, was a standout QB for the Vikings before moving on to the University of Washington and a somewhat unmemorable NFL career. These days, after honing his broadcasting chops in a bevy of small-time gigs (Pop Warner football on ESPN, anyone?), he co-hosts The Brock and Salk Show every morning on 710 ESPN. While you’d expect Huard simply to bring hyperlocal name recognition to the program, the former Husky often outshines his mildly annoying on-air companion. MATT DRISCOLL 710Sports.com
