The team over at Bluff City Media is continuing to load up. Joining Grizzly Bear Blues, who moved their Memphis Grizzlies content to the Bluff City Media umbrella March 1st, Grizz Lead will be joining the squad to provide their Grizzlies content.
Daniel Greer — the person who has run Grizz Lead for the past several seasons — describes Grizz Lead as a strong “up-and-coming brand that is all about Memphis,” one that’s unique and can be trusted by the fans.
We want to create content that speaks to the fans. Joining Bluff City Media gives us a chance to provide that content on a much larger stage.

They have a staff of talented writers who will be joining Bluff City Media to provide top-tier Grizzlies coverage:
- Andrew Hainissian
- Brandon Nwoekji
- Chris Ingram
- Ian Sparks
- Jesse Elsea
- Luke Hatmaker
- Nathan Qualls
They will also bring their podcasts over to the Bluff City Media network.
- “Free Basketball” — a NBA podcast that ties in the latest NBA news with how it impacts the Grizzlies, hosted by Ryan Meadows and Cody Hussey.
- “No Bluffin” — a Grizzlies podcast hosted by Chris Ingram, Luke Hatmaker, and Nicole Nelson
One of the biggest elements in this transition is the Grizz 901 postgame show hosted by Daniel Greer and Nathan Qualls. They will be serving as the Bluff City Media Grizzlies postgame show after every game, starting after tomorrow night’s game against the Orlando Magic.
“With the 901 Grizz Live post game show, it was a no brainer for us as we continue to try and provide the best coverage we can in the city. As we move forward you will start to see more live shows centered around games and our Memphis sports and we are starting that with this acquisition.”
Mark King, CEO of Bluff City Media
As Bluff City Media continues to form a premier, go-to stop for Memphis sports content, Grizz Lead was seen as a bonafide way to bolster the brand.
“We are always trying to look for new and better ways to cover our teams in this city, we started that with Grizzly Bear Blues and for us that continued with the acquisitions of new staff. If you look at what those guys are doing over there, it’s been great work,” King said of the Grizz Lead acquisition. “It’s great for our consumers, and it’s great for our cities’ teams, and we are excited about what we are building at Bluff City Media.”
