here in Seattle, and it was one that meet his
friends and his parents. Folks remember that, Remember those days?

Oh? I remember, man, I remember. I was very grateful
You and some many needy guys in the whole entire
organization just rallied behind and our calls man so and
that's kind of who we were. It was. Football was
one thing, but I felt like we had a lot
of good, strong connections in a family atmosphere over there.
So I'll never forget that.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Really, I have to tell one quick story, can.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
I This is the only reason I want right now.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Bobby, Don't don't turn me off, Bobby, you listen to this. Okay,
we're in training camp, and you know, Spokane was down
the road from from Cheenie, and so on their night off,
Darryl Jackson, Bobby Ingram and Corn Robinson, who was one
of my favorites but you know, kind of a wild child,
(01:37):
they went. They told me they went to the movies. Okay, okay,
they went to the movies, but they had to get back.
They had to get back. They had to get back
in time, you know. For well, they got in late.
So the next and I'm going the next the next day,
I call him in and I'm ripping Corn, I'm ripping Darryl.
I'm looking at Bobby, and I'm going the one sensible
(01:59):
guy on this team I'm looking at right now. You
got to take care of these guys, all right, because
I promise, I promise.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Did you take.
Speaker 5 (02:11):
I was taking care of him. Coach knows that. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
But see, and then you went into coaching, and you
know what I had to deal with, you.
Speaker 5 (02:18):
Know, for sure, for sure. Man, But those were some
good times Mike. Congratulations though, man, and making the ring.
I know what's coming next. I know it was a
little disappointing, but well deserved. And that's on his way too.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Hey, Bobby, I can't thank you enough. And I mean
it when I say you were one of the best
guys I ever had. Really I appreciate that, man.
Speaker 5 (02:40):
So I got a quick story. I got a quick
story as well. So when I first got out there,
you know, I left the Bears. I was coming off
of a knee injury. Things got a little crazy out there,
so I got cut. I signed by Seattle like the
next day, and you know, of course, I'm doing my
research and I knew Mike. I was in Chicago, he
was in Green Bay. We played against him and had
(03:00):
a lot of respect for what they did offensively and
just as an organization. So when I got the opportunity
to go out there, my agent was talking about this team,
that team. I said, there's no question I'm going to Seattle.
So I go out there and everything's going smooth. My
first practice I dropped. I dropped the first pass ever
thrown to me. Right, and in true home grown fashion,
I'm running back to the huddle and I run by him,
(03:22):
he goes, I thought they said you had great hands,
and we both just laughed and we both just laughed
about it, and I knew everything was going to be
cool after that.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Yeah, it was, you know what, honestly that he is
one of the young men that the reason I got
into coaching in the first place and enjoyed it so much.
Really really, Yeah, Bobby.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Ingram, who is joining us right now.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
I'm live here on ninety through three KJRFM with coach Holmgren, Anders,
sarahs j Justamin McIntyre in for the mayor, but we're
hoping that we're filling this time admirably in the mayor's absence.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Bobby that I've gotten to know you pretty in a
short time.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
You know some friends of mine that coach in Washington
where you are now the wide receivers coach. But you
got some really good news on Friday, and I'd love
for you to share.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
It with us.
Speaker 5 (04:10):
Absolutely. I appreciate that. So, Mike, you know, remember my
daughter Bobby. You know, Bobby had a rough gold That's
why we had to walk. We started the foundation because
of Bobby and run. She ended up transitioning in twenty
eighteen and that was tough for my family, but we
still done our faith and we had so much love,
so much support. It was overwhelming. So fast forward to
(04:34):
now my daughter Phoebe, who also has sickle cell disease
as well, but the difference between her and Bobby is
we all got tested. My son Trey ended up being
a perfect match. It had to be a perfect blood match.
And she had a bone maryle transfusion last Friday and
we just brought her home on Monday, and she's excellent.
(04:54):
She's she's doing it phenomenally. She's healthy, she's whole, she's healed,
and we're just thankful for that.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Hey, you know, thank you for sharing that she will
be in our prayers. I promise you.
Speaker 5 (05:06):
I appreciate that, man. And it's a lot of people
from people all over the country have been hitting us up.
People out of the country. Me and my wife have
such a strong community and people that are believers and
that love the Lord and that have supported us football,
but family and off the field has meant more to
me than anything. And just a lot of cool people
(05:26):
in the DMV that have been supportive and instrumental in
us helping us get to this stage, which has been
a journey, but I'm happy for Phoebe. She's an unbelievable
young lady. She's so strong and so determined, and now
she gets to have a completely different quality of life.
So we were able to do that with a lot
of the folks that Children's National in DC.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
This is absolutely wonderful to hear and we will definitely
be talking in the future, You and I and when
you talk about football and.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Family, for me, it's one in the same.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
Football is family in my heart and mind, and I
think it is well obviously to you and your family.
I think Coach could agree with that with his I
want to one congratulate you and your wife and your
family on everything that is positively happening, but also I
want to know when football became family to you, Bobby,
And I'll let Coach talk about that afterwards.
Speaker 5 (06:21):
When it became family to me in general or in.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Seattle, either one you dealer's choice.
Speaker 5 (06:28):
Yeah, I'll stay with Seattle. But I mean football to
me the way I grew up in South Carolina, like
you grew up with the guys. You played Pop Warner,
you played middle school, you played high school. So to me,
those bonds in terms of how I grew up. Those
guys I still talk to to this date. That's why
I fell in love with the game, because of the
guys and because of the type of teams that I
(06:50):
played on growing up, you know, and going to Penn
State was another part of that. But when I got
to Seattle, just the locker room, know the talent that
we had, but also just the locker room. Man Like,
we hung out a lot every Friday, couples. We would
go out to dinner, we would go bowl, and we
would hang out together. And you saw that team really
(07:11):
jail from when I got there in two thousand and one,
you kept seeing it buil till we finally won the
division in O four. And I think a big part
of that. Obviously we had talented guys and guys were
growing up and mature, but I also think we had
a different connection in that locker room and guys really
cared about each other, and you know, and you play
different for guys when it's like that, and you could
(07:33):
call guys out and nobody would get offended. You would
have an argument and it was like, Okay, I hear
what you're saying. So it was it was one of
those situations where you were accountable, guys held you accountable,
You worked hard, and you didn't want to let anybody
in that locker room or on that coaching staff down.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
God sounds like a family to me.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
Yeah, sure does you know? And I one of the
best things I ever did was I established a players committee,
you know, And there were times when I did didn't
think they were listening to me on occasion, so I'd
go to the players Committee and try and convey what
I wanted to say to them and then have them
tell the people in the locker room And that group
(08:11):
we had in Seattle was the best. They really were. Bobby,
Bobby was on it.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
What was that like? Uh? It was it was. It
was like Mike said, you got an opportunity to guys
can speak their speak their their hearts. And there was
nobody getting offensive or defensive. And and Mike you know, uh,
you know, you don't know Mike's intense. He can get intense,
right and when when he wants to get a pointed across,
(08:37):
you know, he's going to speak with passion. Uh, And
you see them, you see it on the sideline. But
I think that's why we were able to work well
together quietly. I was an extremely intense player, very competitive,
and I fed off of that intensity, and I know
a lot of our guys did as well. But but
you know, the committee was just one of where we
could hear Mike and we and there was legitimate he
(08:58):
was our leader, but there was also guys on that
team that had been around, that had had done some things,
and we it was an opportunity for us to have
some discussions and really figure out what was the best
for the team. But also, like Mike said, just make
sure that that we needed to keep the team headed
in a in a specific direction.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
Bobby, I'm sure you know this, but you know, for
for eight years, nine years, Walter Jones never said one word,
not one word to me. And now he's a he's
a he's a radio star. He just can't he can't
stop him from talking. Did you know that?
Speaker 5 (09:35):
Well? I did know that. I keep up with Walton
everything about the Seahawks as much as I can. He
didn't talk to many people. I would I would get
him to talk, but he didn't say much at all.
He just did his job.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (09:48):
And that's but Toback was the mouthpiece of everybody up there.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
You know that. Oh yeah, I do know that. Yeah,
I know.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
Anything needed to get back to Mike, it was Tobeck
was the guy.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Oh man, that's a tricky situation to be in.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
Oh uh, he relished that. He relished that, trust me.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
Yeah, I know tobackwell and he does like to talk.
So yeah, given the opportunity, I can see him doing that.
Bobby Ingram joining coach Holm Grin Andrew Serrs, Jessaman McIntyre.
Speaker 5 (10:20):
Here.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
As we wrap things up, though, you got to tell
us about one of our favorites.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
How is it going with Dan Quinn?
Speaker 4 (10:27):
You guys had an unbelievable run this year, over over
delivered with low or we didn't know expectations. I don't
think there were expectations on a new team with new ownership,
a new head coach and rookie quarterback. How was it
out there in Washington this year despite the exit of
the playoffs, which you ended in the NFC Championship.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
I mean, you gotta be happy about getting there.
Speaker 5 (10:53):
Right yeah. I mean obviously only one team is going
to be happy right now. That's the Eagles, and you know,
hats off to them. They had a great year and
we did battle. You know, we won one, lost one,
and then we lost another. So that was a tough deal.
But in terms of, you know, just the situation and
how it turned over here, it's rare that you have
(11:14):
changed with an owner, change in GM and a change
with the head coach. So you know, our owner, mister Harris,
did a phenomenal job of identifying, uh, you know, Adam
Peters and Adam and Adam and hired Dan Quinn and
d Q is the unquestionable leader and just the unbelievable
man and how he goes about his business, how he
(11:35):
relates to people, and the big thing is he established
the culture and there was a brotherhood where we had
a lot of fun. You know, we worked really hard,
but we had a lot of fun. And it was
it was like that family atmosphere that I talked about
when I played in Seattle. That as a coach, that's
the closest things that I've seen and been around. It
was a lot of fun. But but the guys, the
(11:57):
coaching staff, everybody on the staff board, and these players,
this team was a lot of fun to coach because
they were selfless, They worked really hard, they truly cared
about each other and they held each other accountable, and
they went out and they played the game the right way.
We played hard, we played fasts, we played physical, and
you know that was the standard. No, and nobody gave
(12:20):
us much of a chance. But we knew what we
had in the locker room, and we knew if we
just played well enough that we would give ourselves a chance.
And the young, young, young Jaden is special. You know,
Jaden Daniels is a special talent and even more special
person just the way he carries himself.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
You know, Bobby, when I go home this evening, I'm
gonna tell Kathy guess who I got the chance to
talk to today and then and then I'll tell Bobby
Ingram and she'll go, oh, how's the family. She'll you know,
she'll ask all those It won't be a football question.
It'll be all about the family. And you remember the
walk we went on and all that kind of stuff.
So this is a real, real, pleasant surprise. I wish
(13:01):
you all the best in Washington, and you know, our
time together I'll never forget it. So it was Thank
you very much.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
I appreciate it. Mike. It is a pleasure to be
able to talk to you and catch up, man, And
that was the best thing that happened to me, coming
to Seattle in those eight years and being able to
play in that offense with you and Gil and Nolan
and all of the guys, the coaches, but the players. Man.
I still talk to a lot of the players. I
still talk to the team chaplain Carl. What you built
(13:31):
there was special and I was I was blessed to
be a part of that.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Thank you, sir, appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Washington to Washington, Bobby Ingram, Mike home, grin and don't worry.
Speaker 4 (13:41):
I'll share his details with you. I'm sure you guys
can get in touch, right, Bobby, Yeah.
Speaker 5 (13:47):
You got my number, right. Make sure Mike hasn't changed.
I have one, but I need to make sure it's
still the same.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
Yeah, I know he's got burners all over the place.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
List coach, Thank you to Joe. Thank you so much,
coach for joining us.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
And Coach, I really appreciate your time and seriously, best
of your family.
Speaker 1 (14:04):

good day.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Thank you, Bobby.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
That was really, really awesome.
Speaker 4 (14:13):
I got in contact with Bobby and decided that while
you were in here for a little extended time that
I would at least bring someone on that you like.
Speaker 3 (14:23):
You know what, that was really nice. Thank you. I
can't thank you enough because I meant what I said
to him. I mean it. Really he's a special He
was a special player and a special person, and I
don't forget that time when he was here. It was
really what I said.
Speaker 5 (14:39):
I meant.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
It sounds like you guys very much agree with each
other on who each other is, and that's a beautiful thing.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
And we're very lucky to have you both today.
We have a special voice for you coming on the
show right now. What's hit it?
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Hasslebeck could play action, stepped up to avoid the rush,
firing caught touchdown Bobby Ingram, and the penalty gives Seattle

was like Mike said, you got an opportunity to guys
can speak their speak their their hearts. And there was
nobody getting offensive or defensive. And and Mike you know, uh,
you know, you don't know Mike's intense. He can get intense,
right and when when he wants to get a pointed across,
(08:37):
you know, he's going to speak with passion. Uh, And
you see them, you see it on the sideline. But
I think that's why we were able to work well
together quietly. I was an extremely intense player, very competitive,
and I fed off of that intensity, and I know
a lot of our guys did as well. But but
you know, the committee was just one of where we
could hear Mike and we and there was legitimate he
(08:58):
was our leader, but there was also guys on that
team that had been around, that had had done some things,
and we it was an opportunity for us to have
some discussions and really figure out what was the best
for the team. But also, like Mike said, just make
sure that that we needed to keep the team headed
in a in a specific direction.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
Bobby, I'm sure you know this, but you know, for
for eight years, nine years, Walter Jones never said one word,
not one word to me. And now he's a he's
a he's a radio star. He just can't he can't
stop him from talking. Did you know that?
Speaker 5 (09:35):
Well? I did know that. I keep up with Walton
everything about the Seahawks as much as I can. He
didn't talk to many people. I would I would get
him to talk, but he didn't say much at all.
He just did his job.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (09:48):
And that's but Toback was the mouthpiece of everybody up there.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
You know that. Oh yeah, I do know that. Yeah,
I know.
Speaker 5 (09:56):
Anything needed to get back to Mike, it was Tobeck
was the guy.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Oh man, that's a tricky situation to be in.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
Oh uh, he relished that. He relished that, trust me.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
Yeah, I know tobackwell and he does like to talk.
So yeah, given the opportunity, I can see him doing that.
Bobby Ingram joining coach Holm Grin Andrew Serrs, Jessaman McIntyre.
Speaker 5 (10:20):
Here.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
As we wrap things up, though, you got to tell
us about one of our favorites.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
How is it going with Dan Quinn?
Speaker 4 (10:27):
You guys had an unbelievable run this year, over over
delivered with low or we didn't know expectations. I don't
think there were expectations on a new team with new ownership,
a new head coach and rookie quarterback. How was it
out there in Washington this year despite the exit of
the playoffs, which you ended in the NFC Championship.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
I mean, you gotta be happy about getting there.
Speaker 5 (10:53):
Right yeah. I mean obviously only one team is going
to be happy right now. That's the Eagles, and you know,
hats off to them. They had a great year and
we did battle. You know, we won one, lost one,
and then we lost another. So that was a tough deal.
But in terms of, you know, just the situation and
how it turned over here, it's rare that you have
(11:14):
changed with an owner, change in GM and a change
with the head coach. So you know, our owner, mister Harris,
did a phenomenal job of identifying, uh, you know, Adam
Peters and Adam and Adam and hired Dan Quinn and
d Q is the unquestionable leader and just the unbelievable
man and how he goes about his business, how he
(11:35):
relates to people, and the big thing is he established
the culture and there was a brotherhood where we had
a lot of fun. You know, we worked really hard,
but we had a lot of fun. And it was
it was like that family atmosphere that I talked about
when I played in Seattle. That as a coach, that's
the closest things that I've seen and been around. It
was a lot of fun. But but the guys, the
(11:57):
coaching staff, everybody on the staff board, and these players,
this team was a lot of fun to coach because
they were selfless, They worked really hard, they truly cared
about each other and they held each other accountable, and
they went out and they played the game the right way.
We played hard, we played fasts, we played physical, and
you know that was the standard. No, and nobody gave
(12:20):
us much of a chance. But we knew what we
had in the locker room, and we knew if we
just played well enough that we would give ourselves a chance.
And the young, young, young Jaden is special. You know,
Jaden Daniels is a special talent and even more special
person just the way he carries himself.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
You know, Bobby, when I go home this evening, I'm
gonna tell Kathy guess who I got the chance to
talk to today and then and then I'll tell Bobby
Ingram and she'll go, oh, how's the family. She'll you know,
she'll ask all those It won't be a football question.
It'll be all about the family. And you remember the
walk we went on and all that kind of stuff.
So this is a real, real, pleasant surprise. I wish
(13:01):
you all the best in Washington, and you know, our
time together I'll never forget it. So it was Thank
you very much.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
I appreciate it. Mike. It is a pleasure to be
able to talk to you and catch up, man, And
that was the best thing that happened to me, coming
to Seattle in those eight years and being able to
play in that offense with you and Gil and Nolan
and all of the guys, the coaches, but the players. Man.
I still talk to a lot of the players. I
still talk to the team chaplain Carl. What you built
(13:31):
there was special and I was I was blessed to
be a part of that.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Thank you, sir, appreciate it.

you were in here for a little extended time that
I would at least bring someone on that you like.

You know what, that was really nice. Thank you. I
can't thank you enough because I meant what I said
to him. I mean it. Really he's a special He
was a special player and a special person, and I
don't forget that time when he was here. It was
really what I said.
Speaker 5 (14:39):
I meant.
Speaker 4 (14:40):
It sounds like you guys very much agree with each
other on who each other is, and that's a beautiful thing.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
And we're very lucky to have you both today.
