1090 did a great job with the Aztecs this year. Enjoy listening to 1090 - 12 noon -3 Darren and Marti (former Aztec), he is from the mother ship ESPN but out here 10 years now , gets great guests with knowledge about the subjects , Aztec Coaches , Kevin O and Kirk Morrison are great . Coach Kentera is the true local that also is a genuine guy. Ben Higgins Channel 10 TV and 1360 is ok gets solid information . So does Billy Ray Smith former Charger on 1090 3-6 . Really dislike the guys that love to name drop, EGO maniacs who talk about themselves and feel their superior opinion is all that counts , answering their own questions , Sileo , Ello , Kaplan and the idiots on 1360 3-7 , . Even prefer Hacksaw and Acee over Silly O,(national guy who has been fired from at least 3 stations) . Give us information with people who know what they are talking about

I listened to 1090 obsessively for awhile when they had a lot of Aztec interviews. Sileo is brand new to the area, and doesn't know much about the Aztecs. His interviews were OK, but showed his ignorance at times. He tends to sound snide, partly because he is and also it's the nasal quality in his voice. BR is a pleasant presence. I like his Ed McMahon-style comments. He has at times even tried to nudge Scott away from his idiotic anti-religious sentiments during gay football player week solely through the use of sounds (ohhh, noooo, friendly chuckle, mmm, etc) I've wondered if BR is inarticulate because when Scott finally lets him express himself, he's just not ready to use his words since he's had so much time not doing so. Scott is enthusiastic when you get him on your side. He was great later in the season. He doesn't hesitate to express his sometimes...how do you say...unfounded comments, but hey, that's radio. Darren and Marti really do know their stuff about the Aztecs. Craig Elsten. Can't stand the guy. His voice grated on me, and his editorializing post-game about Shepard and anyone else who didn't play to his standard was so annoying. Just kind of a mean-spirited guy with the oiliest voice ever. But I love Uncle Teddy. I know I'm in the minority here.

Think it is very important for the Aztec football program to try to get as many football coaches players..... on the air 1090 . Should have been a better effort during spring ball . Also during the summer and then in the fall . coach Fisher knows how to work it, Rocky and the AD staff should really use any opportunity they can to get on the radio, but he seems to stop players and other coaches from going on the radio . Aztecs are going to need to get out IN the community to try to get fans to the Q this year . Co-market with the 1090 crew

I'm not impressed with Sileo and I've told him and 1090 that as well. He is all about playing for jimmy Johnson at Miami. About his time in the pros. Also about his steroid use. I'm tired of hearing it all. On the other side he was thrown in at 1090 in the middle of the Aztecs basketball season. He tried to embrace it, thus getting Justin Huston on the air as often as he could.
Still I think it was a big mistake to bring him in.

If I'm listening to sports radio, I'm listening to Dan Patrick. Local radio sucks. How many interviews with the Padres bullpen catcher can you listen to? // Sent from my GS4 // While I know many sports junkies out there are interested in Padres/MLB & Chargers/NFL, I care only if the topic is Aztecs. Dan Patrick is in another league, but alas, he never discusses SDSU. Sileo is obnoxious and I get the sense he is overdoing things to a great deal just to gain acceptance in the SD market. If he talks Aztecs I'll listen. Same goes for any of the sports radio honks. Talk about the Padres/Chargers/anthingelse and I turn the dial. Harsh but the truth. Sports Radio has no future. Today's audience has too many options to individualize their news/sports. Radio is too broad a brush in today's age I think.

There are many reasons for the poor attendance at Qualcomm and the mediaphobia of Tom Terrific and Rocky, who've coached the team half the time over the last dozen years, has had as much to do with that as anything.

My wild guess is Sileo is paid about a paltry 80 grand per year whereas Dan Patrick earns about twenty times that.
It's a cliche but you get what you pay for.

he comes across as a poor man's version of bubba the love sponge, without the talent (and that's saying something). nearly all of his commentary/interviews come back around to him and the athlete he was at the U. can't listen to him. i tried, just can't do it.

Would like to better understand your point here. Rocky does not know how to use meida? Explain. He is always available to radio, but I kinda cringe to think how Dan Silio might interview him. "Say, Rocky, for a d-2 program, you guys don't sweat much, riiiiiiggtttt? My take is that players are made available on media relations days on Monday for interviews and sometimes after games. So, what are you referring to? It is partially up to Aztecs Media Relations to promote interview subjects and partially up to 1090 and others to accept those overtures and prepare good interviews, as was the case for MBB this year. And, that was about for the first year ever. Clearly, that push should be made for football starting in August. But, who are the Aztec "stars" that the radio and tv types would want to interview? After Kaehler, who? Kids have to be a little personable and forthcoming to be good on tv/radio as well. What do you mean he precludes them from being available? As to attendance, failing to get into the P-5, which is never happening, it would take the second coming of Marshall Faulk to turn attendance into something special at Qualcomm anyway. Rocky could go 13-0 (with MWC championship game here) and you'd still not see attendance increase significantly. That is just the way it is in the brain dead pro football, Charger delusional market we are afflicted with. Endofrant!

Just when besides one weekly presser during the season are Aztecs football players interviewed? I can't remember when I last heard one interviewed on the radio. In contrast, Fisher's guys are on the radio frequently during the season. Maybe radio guys simply never ask to interview football players whereas the frequently ask to interview basketball players? I doubt it. Instead, I think that as with the case with the limiting of practice access to a select few like you, Rocky does his best to limit media access to his players.

I like Sileo a lot. I don't agree with everything he says but I think as far as being a gifted communicator and coming up with interesting content he's the best in San Diego. Yeah he's new to the area so it's going to take him a while to familiarize himself with the local teams, can't fault a guy for that. I like him.

at least 5 of the coaches for MBB are on 1090 . Most of the players are also . What football coaches are on the air regularly and what players . Aztecs have numerous guys that could have gone on the air but can not unless given permission by Rocky .Believe he limits guys from coming on the air. Who was on the radio during spring ball , to drum up some interest in the spring game . Can some one come on during the summer while getting in condition with Adam Hall. Aztecs need as much free publicity as they can get .Would be nice for the grad seniors to get on before the draft . There are a lot of players around campus during the summer . Better start promoting the team now.

I doubt it. Instead, I think that as with the case with the limiting of practice access to a select few like you, Rocky does his best to limit media access to his players. There were some individual interviews as the season progressed last year. Since I was in that media business decades ago I know that it is a two=way street. You need a willing coach, and then an aggressive SID who solicits the interview ideas to the radio/tv people. Most people (especially here in weak casual fan land) think that the head coach is in charge of all of the success of being in the media. Indeed, it is more sophisticated than that. So, let's see what Aztecs emerge as interview potential as the season progresses. As of right now, no one, other than Stefanie Loh, is aware of who would be interesting to interview. But, let's put this in perspective. How important is FB interview quantity vs. BB interview quantity? Winning will generate possibilities for stories. Personally, I'll take a knowledgable beat writer every day to ask the questions I want to know about over the generality of radio/tv journalism. Believe me, most get their ideas from the daily newspaper beat writer. And, don't forget that Rocky has a weekly radio show that many here, and not many north of Oceanside can tune into. But, I gotta give you this, if I were him, I'd bring along an asst. coach and/or player for that show every week. So, yes, you have a point in MBB media relations vs. FB.

Aztec basketball is an established, nationally recognized program. Aztec football is not. Therein lies the answer to which progam's players get the most interviews.

What time is "morning" to you?. Chris (aka "The Anti-Aztec" to many on this board) and Ben are local. Their show starts at 6AM. And I'm up before it every morning. Ben and Chris have the best show in San Diego. 2nd best. The best is on 1090 from noon to three.

That is just the way it is in the brain dead pro football, Charger delusional market we are afflicted with. Endofrant! The fact that Rocky will not allow his players to talk after particular losses is really grating. He claims that he is protecting them, it isn't. He ought to discuss this topic with coach Fisher.

Aztec AD office/football team should use the leverage they have with 1090 . They provided a lot of people during the MBB season , now could easily ask for time on the radio with the football coaches and players . Getting to know the football players/ coaches sure helps sell tickets and ads for the radio station . Even now ,1090 likes Tony G , get him on and his team . Any interview can possibly sell some tickets to a variety of events . Win and Win situation for the Aztecs and 1090 . It also helps recruiting . Just have Coach Fisher go chat with Rocky about why he does it and trys to get all involved . By the way does Channel 51 do an Aztec recap report on Sundays about 10.50 pm
