Green Bay coach Doug Gottlieb says he plans to 'take a break' from his radio show
Doug Gottlieb will pause his national sports talk radio show to fully focus on coaching Green Bay, which improved to 6-7 this season, citing conflicting responsibilities.
- On Wednesday, after Green Bay's 67-64 victory, Doug Gottlieb announced he will step away from his radio show starting Friday and plans to stop live radio by next week.
- Gottlieb has juggled broadcasting and coaching since May 2024, coaching while maintaining his national radio show and citing travel conflicts like missing the team bus to Indianapolis.
- Stopping live radio, Doug Gottlieb will continue his podcast and argued Green Bay players deserve `a fully dedicated coach` to avoid any lack of preparation or fatigue.
- The decision could increase Gottlieb's availability, as he said stepping away will let him be as prepared as possible and do more for Green Bay Phoenix, who went 4-28 in his first season and are 6-7 this year.
- After roughly two decades on air, Doug Gottlieb said Wednesday, `After this week or maybe next week, I haven't decided, I'm no longer going to do live radio,` but he will continue his podcast.
