I think it'd probably be a pretty entertaining back and forth, but having said that....No.

Low key best part of an interview would be @Pistol asking hard hitting questions about the Cult of the Grand Canyon.

I’m going to be honest on this one. I’ve gone back and forth in my head more times than I care to admit on wether or not I should try to interview him. Should I put it to a board vote? 

It would honestly be pretty entertaining.

He did have a big steal and bucket during the comeback vs NC State

That would be a less obvious good/funny part of the interview, but the best / most hilarious part would be the obvious one.  I'm trying to imagine how you bring up his post basketball career in the interview and cracking myself up.

Zac - (awkward silence) "...so tell us about what you're up to now?"

Grandy - goes into an in depth analysis of OnlyFans and super hole spreading

Zac & Pete - 

Assuming there is no "clips" of Grandy's work, this would be one that you'd have to watch on YouTube just to see your facial expressions / reactions.

Full disclosure: through a close female friend who’s a big Billiken fan, I’ve seen what he’s been “upto”

You absolutely should. I recall Harriman was really talking him up on the radio. He had a really rough upbringing growing up in Canada. Aside from his post playing shenanigans, I think he would have a lot of interesting things to say. I happened to be at practice in 2014 when he threw out his shoulder, essentially ending his SLU career. He was going to take on a bigger role that year. The following year, he wound up his career with a very strong season at Grand Canyon.

I believe he originally committed to UNLV under Lon Kruger, when he left then he committed to SLU. Played for Majerus and then Crews and then a final stop at GC, so an interesting career. He earned the best college basketball transfer award in 2016. You'd have a lot to talk about.

That’s good enough for me. I’ll see if I can’t get to him.

I remember a story (I will just have the gist of it) that athletes cannot start to have the meals paid for by the school until semester beginning or practice start or whatever specific event.  Glaze could not feed himself because he lacked the means and they found a way to get him like a jar of peanut butter and a couple loaves of bread to just get him through.

While things can change and people can change and his current lifestyle is a bit extreme, Grandy always seemed well liked, friendly, hard-working, etc.  I wished him the best when he left SLU and would have also been happy to see him return.  I think he will be a great interview and will have a lot to talk about just focusing on his playing days and childhood.
