This guy is southeastern Michigan legend in the making. We couldn’t be luckier to happier to call Hutchinson one of our own. Go Blue! Go Lions!

From plmouth MI northwest Wayne County 😂

The Gm lives out there aswell close to northville

[@Realalexostrowski]

The fact that he went to high school, college and pro all within a 60 mile radius is so cool😂

[@EZDZ24]

Yes sir! My home town kid, now man, has been part of rebirth’s of long-suffering programs LOCALLY.

[@Realalexostrowski]

@@EZDZ24 I’m from the Saginaw area and having a Michigan guy represent the Lions is cool as heck!

[@tylermoody2383]

I'm a bears fan, but man, Hutchinson is such a cool fucking dude. Lions are lucky to have him.

[@TheGibsond10]

Home grown in Michigan and played for Michigan and was major part of u of m restoration and the lions reborn. We deserve each other

[@Blaherhagen]

I routinely thank the Jaguars for gifting us Hutch

[@Ivypoison23]

@@Blaherhagenjags sacrificed a lot for that

[@jaybees5734]

You have some things to be excited about as bears fan

[@Loganbub]

As a Lions fan I really hate to see the Bears also getting their stuff together lol. The Bears really set themselves up nicely the last 2 years, the division is going to be tough for awhile.

[@Romdejar]

I am a PATS fan and man, I luv what you guys are doing...crushing the last few drafts actually with DC at the wheel...how can you not respect what is going on there...I hope you guys get to the promised land....your Lions are doing it right...I grew up watching Barry and Megatron and rooted for them as a football fan...but now it's all coming together in the Motor City with hard work and having each other's back, so crisp...much respect...bring that Lombardi Trophy to Ford Field!

[@RetrieverMan]

Your a great person. Respect 💯

[@Detwhat]

Thank you for being a good sport. When Tom Brady was playing for you guys, i was cheering you guys on every time. You guys made me some good money too lol.

[@ptulip]

Such a beast yet so humble. He's a keeper for many years.

[@christopherrobbins9985]

Incredible interview. Hard not to be impressed with Aidan Hutchinson. Future HOFer. Go Lions and Go Blue!

[@logank444]

Not only are we a great team but we have such great people in that team. Goff, Hutch, and St Brown are all humble, real, and hard playing

[@ericolsen1678]

💯

[@ericolsen1678]

Check out the Arnold press conference. Talk about one heck of a human being! Lions got a stud CB!

[@BrianNassar]

I'm 53 and still not used to seeing Lions like Hutch!! 🙏🏽

[@bingo8789]

A guy named Suh was probably good too

[@elbowgang9715]

​@bingo8789 Suh was great but he was too nasty on the field...thats where Draymond learned his fouling techniques from 😂

[@mattv2440]

Aiden is the MAN, so glad this man is a part of the pride. Couldn't be happier. I'm still ecstatic we got him the draft.

[@PTDBond]

Love how Hutch flips the script at the end and asks his own question ❤❤

[@chrisbarnes6770]

Our Lions are building a legacy team right before our eyes. 💯 And I'm here for it. NOT the "same ol lions" anymore. 😁🤙🏼💪🏼❤️

[@cynthiasmith4130]

What a great guy!! Congratulations!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉...💙💛💙💛💙💛.... 🏈🏈🏈......

[@thomasiiams2925]

Isn't it nice how Wolverine and Spartan fans hate eachother...... but the Lions bring them all together as one.

[@EZDZ24]

My home town man!

[@citizen862]

Go Blue ! and Go Lions !

[@airthief36]

how cool is it that he grew up in Michigan, a lions fan, now he plays for them?! I feel like thats nearly impossible.

[@soundkayakkcp]

So excited for the Detroit Lions future.

[@IOSARBX]

The Rich Eisen Show, I can't get enough of your content, so I subscribed!

[@dankill9131]

Go BLUE!!! Still can't believe that the Lions got Hutch!

[@bradpirochta9293]

The most critical people of Dan Campbell are non-Lions fans. If Lions fans don't care then why do you? We know he's a gambler. We're ok with that.

[@paulmayer8654]

People who understand that Campbell’s in game coaching decisions added 2x as much win % as the 2nd best coach are perfectly fine with his coaching decisions 😂 it’s really a no brainer

[@Loganbub]

I’m a Lions fan who loves Dan but you’ll never convince me he didn’t make horrible decisions in the NFC title game. It was a lot of things that weren’t Dans fault but imo it’s he held more blame than anyone. You have to know when to dial down the gambling but as the poster above said his gambling also helped them win a lot.

[@paulmayer8654]

@@Loganbub so the fact that they were statistically more likely to convert the 4th down than the make the FG doesn't help you at all? Really the only bad decision was taking the timeout on the goal line. They should have passed on 3rd down there in case they didn't get in. The 4th down decisions were fine. Bad result doesn't mean bad decision.

[@Loganbub]

@@paulmayer8654 Like I said it was far from just Dans fault, I just disagreed strongly with his decisions in the 1st place. Niners get a FG but took time to do it, take the FG attempt back and now most the 3rd is gone and they’ve not cut into the lead. Bagley had been good, give him the shot otherwise why even have a kicker? Even if he misses it puts you in the same position the down and out did.

[@Loganbub]

@@paulmayer8654 having said that, Dan is a massive net positive with his gambling and in understand that’s who he is but you have to be fluid in certain moments. 2 Reynolds drops, Amon Ra drop, Gibbs fumble etc.. are things Dan can’t do anything about and weren’t his fault but his decisions imo cost them more than anything. Still Love Dan and wouldn’t want anyone else as our coach

[@thewallstreetwizard]

Thank you Jacksonville for drafting Walker!!!! I just can’t thank you enough!!!

[@Sampleador]

Great guy ; " no penalties Roger"😂

[@jeaninehogshead4710]

Awesome interview

[@pkmntrainerian1092]

11:03 I could easily confuse the crowd for Ford Field if the video wasn't shown

[@markderifield185]

Go Lions! Lombardi trophy February 2025!

Gotta love Hutch

LET'S GOOOOOOO 97!!!!!

Proud of last season and looking forward to this year.the dbs will not be world class this season however they will allow the pass rushers time to get home.lets go Lion's Kings of the North 🦁💙

[@user-ed3ut6cs4b]

Hutch is that guy!

[@TheCollectorCave]

Absolutely loving all these interviews Rich! And every Michigan player, coach, and former player have all been well spoken. Great interviews! Go Blue!

People also ask What time does day 3 of the draft start? Draft Day in the D Day Time Saturday, April 27 12 p.m. - 8 p.m.

[@drtidrow]

Just remember, Hutch: (quoting Amy Trask) The quarterback must go down!

[@chrome3720]

11:00 lets go

[@otisjohnjr.3023]

Myself I wish Sainristil had gone to the Lions.

[@paulmayer8654]

Zinter was the guy I was hoping for, but as soon as I saw they traded their 3rd round pick I knew it wasn’t going to happen.

[@BEEFSERPENT]

no more hope now it's expectation

[@stevenbolek5727]

Aidan helped change the culture here but Amon ra Jared and Sewell started it

[@user-hr5hq8gr6l]

I would enjoy watching this if rich wasn’t a Michigan fanboy the whole time

[@fortunachesscoach9434]

The roar is because we want a complete defense to badly and people in the secondary to catch those tipped balls by Hutchinson!

[@EBR846]

Let's see, what's AH selling today...

richie has zero shame

[@chrischung1973]

Hutch.. Stay away from trying to rap. Plz. Imagine Em trying to stop Green Bay. Do whatcha do.

[@MatthewSull-sl2rj]

typical rish eisen. pandering and avoiding the obvious tough questions

[@paulmayer8654]

😂 what obvious tough question?

[@patgaalaas5188]

Rich one of the best, but Michigan did not retire Saban

[@irishfedor]

Did he not retire after Michigan beat them?

[@JaredBruski]

Michigan can't take credit for that though. He'd been talking about it for awhile. Nick Saban the og goat of college football

[@GhostofSicklesleg]

Similar change Lions and UofM just lot less cheating by Lions

[@abnerultimate]

Rich Eisen sucks

[@LussotheG]

Michigan slappys annoy me

[@danconklin1]

Took a lot of work... lol. And a lot of cheating. Let's not pretend they couldn't win without cheating

[@irishfedor]

Cope some more. Every team steals signs. They were the best team in college football and anyone with a brain could see it. They won the toughest games after the allegations were out.

[@blelar8050]

Womp womp goofy ahh
