Western Michigan University Athletic Director Kathy Beauregard says head football coach P.J. Fleck had "other opportunities" during the off-season. But he will be back for the 2016 season. Beauregard sat down with WMUK's Gordon Evans and Battle Creek Enquirer Sports Columnist Bill Broderick. She says you have to plan ahead for the possibility that any coach may leave. Beauregard also discusses honoring the victims of the February 20th shooting in Kalamazoo.
Kalamazoo native Nick Bunkley covers Ford for Automotive News. Like most journalists who report on the auto industry, he's been following developments around the ride service Uber. Bunkley says the shooting spree in Kalamazoo shows the needs for a "panic button" on the Uber app if passengers encounter strange behavior from a driver.
