10/05/2015 | Football
Head football coach Danny Rocco invites fans to join him for Tuesday's edition of the Spider Sportsline. This week's scheduled player guests are senior linebacker Trevor Jones and freshman wide receiver Dejon Brissett. The popular radio show airs live from Outback Steakhouse, 7917 W. Broad Street, from noon-1pm on ESPN 950, SPORTS FM 100.5, RichmondSpiders.com and ESPN950am.com.
Fans, alums and corporate partners are encouraged to attend, enjoy lunch, and talk Spider and college football. Listeners can call-in during the program at 804-622-0950 or toll free 877-994-4950. Emails can be sent anytime to spidersportsline@richmond.edu and will be read on-the-air.
Jones led the Spiders with a career-high eight tackles in Saturday's 48-17 victory over Maine. Brissett, a true freshman, caught one pass for eight yards against the Black Bears, and hauled in his first career touchdown pass in the victory over VMI.
On the heels of the impressive rout of Maine, the Spiders jumped to 16th in the latest FCS poll, marking their 19th consecutive week in the national rankings. Richmond will take a three-game win streak into this Saturday's home game with Elon.
Again this season, Spider Club members can register at Outback during the program by showing their 2015-16 Spider Club membership card to win a Spider Fan Pack of great prizes at the end of the season. Chances of winning increase by attending and registering each week.

The Spider Sportsline with Coach Rocco will air live from Outback, 7917 W. Broad St., every Tuesday during the college football season. Outback Steakhouse, 7917 W. Broad Street, is open for lunch seven days a week at 11 a.m.
