Again, it was GB the AD being a DJ Friday afternoon.
Back by popular demand? Not exactly, but Greg Burke knows his music, having been raised almost in the shadow of the home of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Cleveland, Ohio.
Burke, the athletics director and jack of all trades, was invited to guest host "Jammin' With Johnny," a Friday afternoon music show on 100.7 FM KZBL, flagship station of the Demon Sports Network.
His musical choices included The Eagles, The Rolling Stones and Eric Clapton. His band director back home in Alliance, Ohio, would be proud.
The show runs from 4-5 each Friday afternoon. NSU grad and local attorney Rodney Harrington is "Johnny" as he is the frontman for the local band "Johnny Earthquake and the Moondogs."
Burke, typically, wasn't finished. He was heading back to Turpin Stadium tonight to be the substitute game manager for the St. Mary's High School football game, as one of the athletic staff members who normally fills that role, Katie Harris, is sidelined with an ailment.
No doubt Burke will be straining for cheers from the nearby Demon Soccer Complex where NSU plays South Alabama tonight in what will apparently be a weather-delayed contest in the Holiday Inn Express Classic, originally set for a 7 o'clock start. Lightning in the neighborhood has delayed the start of the 5 o'clock game between Lamar and North Texas. They were hoping to get started about 5:15, unless somebody hits a flash camera by mistake.
