1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,800
Speaker 1: Good morning everyone, to welcome into the Fan Morning Show.

2
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 1: What did I say? I'm oving Ago James. You can't

3
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:09,399
Speaker 1: lose for trying. Sometimes in the NBA, the Pacers last

4
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:13,160
Speaker 1: night I think had Mark Dyton on speed dial ready

5
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:14,680
Speaker 1: to call him up to see if they needed to

6
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:18,239
Speaker 1: fill a roster out. They played without what you could

7
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:21,240
Speaker 1: essentially say, are their five best players that are healthy,

8
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:25,080
Speaker 1: well not healthy apparently, but the five best that are

9
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: mostly available to them right now. And they go and

10
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 1: beat the New Jersey Are they? I want to say

11
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 1: that forever the Brooklyn Nets again. They just do. And

12
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: I don't know how it happened. They were behind double

13
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 1: digits for most of the game. They come back, they're

14
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 1: in a fight, they have turnovers late, they get a

15
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:42,920
Speaker 1: Cam Jones three to turn his things around at the

16
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 1: very end, and they come out with a five point win.

17
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 1: You can't lose for trying.

18
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 2: Beggars can't beat choosers, Jeff, you wanted, you know, you

19
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 2: wanted competition, You wanted people to be out there giving it.

20
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 2: They're all that is the Pacers way. How about that

21
00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 2: done from Quinn Jackson pre sweet posterized?

22
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 1: So who did he post? I can't even remember the

23
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 1: guy's name.

24
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 3: I don't know.

25
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 2: They weren't playing many stars either. On the other side,

26
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 2: I'll say that.

27
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 1: Good morning, Kevin Bowen. What'd you think of the certainly

28
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: great effort for the Pacers that played last night. I

29
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: have no problem with that, as you know. To me,

30
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 1: if you start the game, you play, and that's what

31
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 1: they did. But what do you do with you're the

32
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 1: Pacers and you're you're sitting Pascal Siakan and Nemhart and

33
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 1: Nie Smith and TJ. McConnell and Zubats and you still

34
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 1: go out and win on the road anyway?

35
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 3: Oh boy, I just I'll repeat what I said yesterday.

36
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 3: It's such an awkward time to be a Pacer fan. Yeah,

37
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 3: let's celebrate Cam Jones's rookie moment. He tried to tank

38
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 3: previously before hitting the three. There a very nice job.

39
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 3: I think a lot of Pacers fans are clapping and

40
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 3: then he makes the three. Is that the most like

41
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,759
Speaker 3: oh no, made last minute shot to take the lead

42
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 3: the Pacers have had in franchise history. It might be

43
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 3: two wins have moved the Pacers two spots lower in

44
00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 3: the lottery standings. This is the reality of what these

45
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 3: next two months are going to be all about and

46
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 3: again that that one was a double whammy because the

47
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 3: nets are right there with you in the lottery standings.

48
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 3: But I I don't know what else you can do

49
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 3: than what the Pacers did last night. And what else

50
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 3: do you want? I mean, they sat all the guys,

51
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 3: they tried to tank. They didn't play anybody. Are you

52
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 3: gonna tell Cam Jones and missed the three?

53
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:25,360
Speaker 2: No, you just bring him to the bench and you

54
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 2: find somebody else. You called me out of the crowd.

55
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 3: They didn't play Quinton jack Jons guys on the team.

56
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 3: Quinton Jackson is probably their best guard who played last,

57
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 3: and they didn't play him late. Yeah, they played Cam Jones,

58
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 3: who was a turnover machine until all of a sudden

59
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 3: there's two in the shot clock and he hits a

60
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 3: step back like it's just hey man, he has Ricky moment.

61
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,359
Speaker 3: Stop hayting Kevin. Just incredible that this is what we're

62
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,240
Speaker 3: about to witness for the next two months.

63
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: We had the slogan suck for luck. Do we have

64
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 1: a slogan for this year's Pacers team? Do we even

65
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: have an idea of who would want to go get

66
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 1: of the three? Or four that are going to be

67
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: at the top of the draft.

68
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 2: Well, I had the bands that in Indiana has a bag,

69
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 2: but I don't know if I have a good one

70
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 2: for Darren Peterson, although he might be the best talent

71
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 2: in his draft.

72
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: Was he sitting last night too?

73
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 4: Hey?

74
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,279
Speaker 3: You preparing for the NBA?

75
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 1: He gets a lot of stomach bugs and the sore

76
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 1: ankles apparently. But the Pacers win last night. I watched

77
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 1: almost all of the Butler game and they didn't win

78
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,959
Speaker 1: against Yukon, But I thought they gave everything they had

79
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 1: last night, keV. I thought they played respectably against you

80
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: at Ankle last night. What'd you think?

81
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, first thoughts was Finley Bizjack, just hope that

82
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 3: that injury is not to be. It's incredible the amount

83
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 3: of injuries that they are having, and to Pacers esque

84
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 3: that specific position, and honestly reminded me more of the Fever, James,

85
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 3: because it's all happening to the point guards. Ah, good point.

86
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 3: Remember the Fever had all the point guard injuries. That's

87
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 3: what I thought of last night when Finley went down.

88
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 3: You know they're already playing no challenge Jackson Ulla Bar.

89
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 3: I believe it's how you say his name, the Canadian kid,

90
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 3: they're playing him on the ball. They you don't want

91
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 3: to play him on the ball for forty minutes, but

92
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 3: they have to. And yeah, I don't know. I know

93
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 3: Brian Cardinal's kid is red shirting. I'm like, are they

94
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 3: gonna have to all of a sudden take off his

95
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 3: red shirt?

96
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 5: Here?

97
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 3: You remember they have the youngest McCaffrey on the team.

98
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 3: He had this weird like wisdom teeth situation earlier in

99
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 3: the season. He hasn't played in weeks months at this point,

100
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 3: So I believe when Bizjack got hurt last night, they

101
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 3: were down to eight scholarship guys, and you know they

102
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 3: were Yeah, to your point, Jeff, I mean it was valiant.

103
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 3: I mean when they cut it to two, you thought,

104
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 3: sixty four to sixty two, ro is this gonna be

105
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 3: some Hinkle magic? But Yu Khan boy, that was a

106
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,479
Speaker 3: haymaker and that's solo ball and shout out to Brayln mullins.

107
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 3: I can imagine that was one he circled on the calendar.

108
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 3: In the first half last night, he was the best

109
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 3: player on the floor.

110
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 1: So a lot of.

111
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 3: Greenfield Central contingent in the building. He obviously had a

112
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 3: nice game. Yeah, I thought Butler's Biggs actually played really,

113
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 3: really well. And then in true Dan Hurley fashion, he

114
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 3: had some comments postgame for Thad Mada on the floor

115
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 3: and he had some comments postgame as well. Mark Dayton,

116
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 3: I think if we play that audio, we might have

117
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 3: to go a little dump buttony.

118
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,160
Speaker 6: Yeah it was Rick Carlisle esque after a win or

119
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 6: a loss or something.

120
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 1: So yeah, we'll hear that a little bit later on.

121
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 1: But it's said really nice things about that Mada. He

122
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 1: likes him some Thad Mada, he.

123
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 2: Does, and that is still one of the more respected

124
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 2: coaches in the country, so that doesn't surprise me. But

125
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 2: real quick on Braylin, it's the shooting in the size

126
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 2: that separates him. And when you saw that first half,

127
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 2: I was just thinking to myself, well, this dude is

128
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 2: wanting done and it's kind of crazy. Again, you think

129
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 2: about his journey as a player. He could have been

130
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 2: in any prep school in the country, and he decided

131
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 2: to stay at high school and finished out the local

132
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,479
Speaker 2: career before it took off to what it is now.

133
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 2: Because he is a bona fide star in the making

134
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 2: and someone who again had plenty of opportunities to leave,

135
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 2: and no one would have blamed him if he did

136
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 2: leave Greenfield Central. But I think it's cool that he

137
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 2: stayed there, and I think to an extent, he probably

138
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 2: embraced his childhood because he knew this sort of trajectory

139
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 2: was coming.

140
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 3: If that makes sense.

141
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,040
Speaker 1: That's the whole thing. You look back and you say,

142
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 1: three or four years ago, do you think Braylan and

143
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 1: his family and even coaches down in grief in a Central,

144
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 1: They're like, Oh, yeah, this kid's won and done. He's

145
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 1: gonna go. He's gonna go. He's gonna go to one

146
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 1: of the time I mean top programs in the country.

147
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 1: He's gonna have a great year, and then he's gonna

148
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 1: go out of the NBA.

149
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 7: Man.

150
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 2: Not to be funny, Jeff, but I saw him play

151
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,279
Speaker 2: last year for the first time, and within two minutes,

152
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 2: I was like, that's an NBA player. So I would

153
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,280
Speaker 2: imagine two or three years ago they probably were thinking,

154
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 2: this kid can go all the way. The size, the athletics,

155
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 2: in the shooting, he checks.

156
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 3: A lot of boxes and I enjoyed. His father was

157
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,080
Speaker 3: on with Rake yesterday. Greg greg Shaw's feeling with John

158
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 3: feeling in for John, and you're for those unfamiliar Josh

159
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 3: Mullens played on that Ipui tournament team back in the day.

160
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 3: His dad could play. Yeah, and you know it was

161
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 3: in listening. His dad is very honest about, you know,

162
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 3: just in general the recruitment, a lot of the NBA talk.

163
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 3: I thought he was really honest about. And you know,

164
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 3: his dad, you know, gave the line of, yeah, I'd

165
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,760
Speaker 3: love to see him play for four years. But if

166
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 3: you're a top fifteen picker, you're a lottery pick. How

167
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 3: can you say not to that? And if you look

168
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 3: at some of these mock drafts, they've got him in

169
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 3: that range there. So he hit a lot of big

170
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 3: shots last night, And to James's point, I think he

171
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 3: does more than just you know whatever, stand still shoot

172
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 3: or there and again when when Yukon needed to turn

173
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 3: it up, they did, solo Ball hit some huge shots.

174
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 3: What a great name for a basketball player about them?

175
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 1: I know, it's like a movie name.

176
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 3: Now, the solo ball mean you're a ball hall.

177
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, he had a couple of he had tennissists last

178
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 2: night and solo back he had zero sists last night

179
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:45,119
Speaker 2: and twenty four points.

180
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 3: So there you go. Is it Solo on the birth certificate.

181
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 3: I don't know. It's like, who was the Alabama player

182
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 3: like kool Aid? Oh yeah, m yeah, but like that's

183
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:55,480
Speaker 3: not his real name.

184
00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 8: But I don't know.

185
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 6: We'll have to check in on the Solo ball birth

186
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,680
Speaker 6: certificate just for follow him in solid Armstead Ball.

187
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 3: All right. Oh, a pretty good nickname from Solomon. I'll

188
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 3: take that.

189
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: I was just looking at the NBA Draft room dot

190
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: Com just to see where they're at right now. Brayln Mullins,

191
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: they've got going eight to the Grizzlies. Guys, they say

192
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: one of the best outside shooters in his class with

193
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 1: a clear NBA level jumper. Mullins can warp the defense

194
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 1: even when he doesn't have the ball in his hands,

195
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: is a great mover off the ball, and is always

196
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: hunting his shocked player comp Buddy Healed, Kevin Herder.

197
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 3: So does that mean the Clippers will take him with

198
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 3: the Pacers pick?

199
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: Oh, it's kind of night.

200
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 3: It was last night. Everything ties together cause I ask

201
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 3: for one thing from the tank teams because we discussed

202
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 3: it for three hours yesterday. We couldn't come up with

203
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 3: a good idea, right, Okay, I mean we went back

204
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 3: and forth none of us. I feel like we disagree

205
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,199
Speaker 3: with each other a lot on the best method of

206
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 3: tanking if you are openly resting your players to the level,

207
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 3: and let's be honest, all these teams are doing it.

208
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 3: The Nets did it last night too, And yeah, I

209
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 3: know the Nets don't have his maybe household names, but

210
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 3: they were. I mean, Michael Border Jr. Nick Claxton, Noah Clowney.

211
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 3: They didn't play. I want cameras. I want a camera

212
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,839
Speaker 3: on Kevin Pritchard. When Cam Jones hits the three? Can

213
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 3: Kevin Pritchard fake the emotion because the Pacers put the

214
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 3: pick parameters there for a reason. Oh absolutely, they want

215
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 3: their pick one, two, three or four? So can Kevin

216
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 3: Pritchard show on camera the yes, nice good shot Cam?

217
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:30,319
Speaker 3: Can he give us that?

218
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:32,079
Speaker 1: Or does he not?

219
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 3: Or does he?

220
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,680
Speaker 6: Just can't hide your emotions like when an actor loses

221
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 6: the Golden Globe and.

222
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 3: Go like m right, yes, exact, Okay. So I want

223
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 3: all the gms mark all the presidents around the league.

224
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 3: We need to have the camera on them. You know,

225
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,959
Speaker 3: when they're at game Bridge James, you know exactly where

226
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 3: they sit. You know we all could watch it. You

227
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 3: know some of these road games, you know, at times

228
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 3: you aren't really sure where they're at there. So I'd

229
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 3: love to see Chad Buchanan, great individual, try to high

230
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 3: the internal emotions there. And how awkward is this for

231
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:04,559
Speaker 3: Cam Jones.

232
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,719
Speaker 1: I don't think it's he's trying to show people he

233
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: can play in the NBA.

234
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,319
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you go high five Kevin Pritchard in the

235
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 3: locker room afterwards, and Kevin Pritcher was like, man, I

236
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 3: was really opening you. You would have missed that.

237
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,319
Speaker 2: You tell him, Hey, well you drafted before. Why do

238
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,439
Speaker 2: you need Darrin Peterson when I'm already.

239
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 1: Here here's your second round pick.

240
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, maybe pop in a couple of those turnovers

241
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 3: before that and you would have seen why there? Yeah

242
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 3: that was three to you know, remember my highlights. Please

243
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 3: don't don't want when I leave here one day, Kevin, Please.

244
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 2: And you know, think think about the turnover, think about

245
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,439
Speaker 2: the good times, the made shots, the game winner. You

246
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 2: should a reaction from Hallibird on the bench.

247
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,320
Speaker 3: It's real love right there by the way that morale.

248
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: Rex has one for us, loser for Boozer.

249
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 2: I gotta get a good Peterson one, but I don't

250
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:54,439
Speaker 2: I got maybe it has to be a pun on

251
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 2: not playing.

252
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,959
Speaker 1: You'll see, uh, somebody says Peter. Shane says Peter out

253
00:10:59,000 --> 00:10:59,600

269
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,319
Speaker 1: a Thursday. Looking back last night, to start with the

270
00:11:55,360 --> 00:12:00,400
Speaker 1: Pacers win without Pascal Siakam, without Andrew Nempard, with Aaron

271
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,960
Speaker 1: Nee Smith, without TJ. McConnell. Still haven't seen it eats

272
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 1: some zoobots and didn't matter. They're playing the Brooklyn Nets.

273
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:08,680
Speaker 1: They win at one, fifteen to one.

274
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 9: Ten.

275
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: Cam Jones hits a three late in the game Kevin

276
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: right after he had back to back turnovers. Pacers couldn't

277
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 1: lose if they wanted to.

278
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 3: Last night, No, Cam Jones tried to tank there for

279
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 3: a while, but then hits Yeah, I guess the biggest

280
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 3: shot of his young NBA career. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. Now two

281
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,960
Speaker 3: wins and all of a sudden, they've dropped. I think

282
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 3: it's like five percentage points in the lottery standings. And

283
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 3: I can't believe, Like these are the updates we're now giving,

284
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 3: but these are the relevant updates with the Pacers here.

285
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 3: I am Tangathon seventh pick Ah. I am fascinated to

286
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 3: see what happens. And they come back from the break.

287
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 3: So All Star Break time at Washington next Thursday, at

288
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:54,079
Speaker 3: Washington again on Friday. They can't play the rest excuse

289
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 3: right when you're coming back from the All Star Break.

290
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,679
Speaker 3: So far they've rested guys the second night of the

291
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 3: back to backs, but next Thursday you can't play that card.

292
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 3: And Washington is where right there in though Tank standings

293
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 3: with you, so will they Will they go jet lag

294
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 3: on us? Will they say guys had too much fun

295
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,199
Speaker 3: partying during the All Star I don't know if you

296
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,320
Speaker 3: can go that route, but I mean Siaka for sure,

297
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 3: right Rick will say something to the effect of, well,

298
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,119
Speaker 3: he played the All Star Game and he's tired.

299
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:20,959
Speaker 1: And he's gonna have visa issues coming back out of

300
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 1: Canada or something.

301
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, n Smith, I'm not sure we'll see full week off.

Speaker 3: You're gonna go, well, they're just not really totally they're lingering.

303
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:31,520
Speaker 1: That's my favorite one.

304
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 2: I think you just, you know, put a little couple

305
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,079
Speaker 2: of feelers out there around the NBA to see what

306
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 2: everybody else is doing.

307
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 3: You copy them.

308
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:38,559
Speaker 1: Mark. While we were talking there, I just did a

309
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: simulated lottery again in the Indiana Pacers were fourth in

310
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 1: this one.

311
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 3: There you go, by the way, I'll take your luck.

312
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,360
Speaker 1: Then by the way, Sacramento they are all in. They

313
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 1: have lost fourteen games, gonna row.

314
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 2: All I know about them is that they have Russell

315
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,839
Speaker 2: Westbrook and he's just kind of getting more counting stats

316
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 2: as he's over there.

317
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,079
Speaker 1: Kevin Jariss Walker at twenty three points last night like

318
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,319
Speaker 1: a Potter nineteen and twelve rebounds. Even Thompson scored fifteen

319
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,439
Speaker 1: and Taylor Peter I thought looked decent last night with

320
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 1: fourteen points.

321
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 3: I cannot do it. So I'll ask you, guys, name

322
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 3: me three nets that played in the game last night.

323
00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:13,439
Speaker 1: Cannot, Oh, boy, I watched the whole fourth quarter and

324
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:13,959
Speaker 1: I can't tell you.

325
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 3: I can't. I can't name three. I can't name three.

326
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 3: I forgot they had drafted. Remember Danny Woolf at Michigan

327
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 3: last year? You remember him? No, I do remember him.

328
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 3: They kind of point forward. Yea, yeah, he got a

329
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 3: little run last night. All knew was I your Williams. Yeah,

330
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,920
Speaker 3: used to played Stanford. Yeah, I'll give you Terrence Man. Yeah,

331
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 3: former clipper, which Terrence Man is a former former He

332
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 3: was kind of like a veteran dude. Yeah, but literally

333
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 3: I could not believe some of the night.

334
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 2: Their box score right now, Kevin and yeah, some of

335
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 2: the names that Kristinaria was saying last time, like that

336
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 2: sounds like guys on our third grade basketball team that

337
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 2: Christinary coach back Thenary is very professional.

338
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 1: He had to do a lot of work for prep yesterday.

339
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 3: He always does, And I know, but.

340
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 1: Like double double, you gotta you got to learn who

341
00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:01,440
Speaker 1: guys are actually, all right, So the Pacers go to

342
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 1: the All Star break now with a record of fifteen

343
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 1: and forty, with the one fifteen, one to ten victory

344
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 1: over the Nets last nights, a couple of days off

345
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 1: for them. College basketball over at Hinkle Fieldhouse, Yukon beats

346
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 1: Butler eighty to seventy. Brayln Mullins returns. He has fifteen

347
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: points and five rebounds in front of a lot of

348
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 1: friends and family. Over at Hinkle. There the former mister

349
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 1: Indiana Basketball doing his thing solo ball though twenty four points.

350
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: He was terrific last night. I thought Drayton Jones played

351
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 1: pretty well at times last night.

352
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 3: I thought Troy as well. I thought both Butler's bigs

353
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 3: that's probably the best I've seen them play all year long.

354
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 3: And they needed it because the Jaia and Bizjack were

355
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 3: helping check and again best of finily, Besjack didn't look

356
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 3: good at all. The gas I would have looked like,

357
00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 3: embraced the fall. I believe he has had a risk

358
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 3: issue before as well to that risk. So yeah, just

359
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 3: honestly probably sums up the Butler season now.

360
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 1: Butler's struggled a little bit. They will try again at

361
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: Hinkle on Sunday. That'll be a six pm tip. They'll

362
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,280
Speaker 1: be hosting Seaton Hall there coming up this weekend. Perdue

363
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 1: plays it on Saturday. It'll be a five o'clock tip.

364
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 1: Indiana on the road against who James Illinois, Number eight Illinois.

365
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 1: That one will be set to bounce back.

366
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 3: Okay, we can't. I mean, look, I already got smacked

367
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 3: once by you. I need a little get back. I

368
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 3: see Iowa loss last night to Maryland. That's a nasty loss.

369
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, So the Indiana Illinois game Sunday at one. All right.

370
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: We can also tell you a team ussays women's roster

371
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 1: was announced yesterday. Caitlin Clark and Aleah Boston are part

372
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 1: of that, along with some of the other, let's face it,

373
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 1: all stars from the WNBA, including Paige Beckers. I mean,

374
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 1: this is a stacked lineup. Paige Becker's Kalia Copper, who

375
00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,200
Speaker 1: was a stud I don't know you say that about

376
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 1: women's basketball player. She was terrific at the Olympics in

377
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 1: France a couple of summers ago. Chelsea Gray Kelsey Plumb

378
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 1: is on there. Angel Reese Jackie Young. So Caitlyn Clark

379
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: making her initial Team USA world debut.

380
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, so this is the World Cup that's coming up

381
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 2: later this year. A couple of players probably aren't on there.

382
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 2: I don't think Brandon Stewart's playing Asia Wilson. But this

383
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 2: will be I believe her senior team debut yet next month.

384
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 3: So we will see Caitlyn Clark playing Send one live

385
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:13,639
Speaker 3: on five Basketball next month. I mean, it's been a

386
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 3: while since we've seen. I don't know what the TV

387
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 3: element will be. I believe it's five games for them there.

388
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,119
Speaker 3: I am always curious. I see these lists of Team USA,

389
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 3: and obviously Jeff reads off the list. I mean it's

390
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,199
Speaker 3: a star started group. I'm alwast confused why Kelsey Mitchell

391
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 3: is not on these lists. I mean, you talk to

392
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 3: like the WNBA, you know players, and they've said it before,

393
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:35,920
Speaker 3: one of the toughest scores to guard in the entire league.

394
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 3: She's a great collegiate player. I mean, honestly, Caitlyn Clark

395
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,439
Speaker 3: broke a lot of her scoring records at Ohio State SO.

396
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,359
Speaker 1: And I think she largely led the team to the

397
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,720
Speaker 1: semi finals of the WNBA playoffs last year. Sure.

398
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:49,080
Speaker 4: Yeah.

399
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,399
Speaker 3: Again, I I'm just kind of I was curious about that.

400
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 4: I don't know.

401
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 3: They're loaded at guard though. It's not like they're putting

402
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 3: players on there that you know, don't deserve to be.

403
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:00,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

404
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:02,880
Speaker 2: I think it's one of those things where like you saw,

405
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,440
Speaker 2: like Jamal Murray made his first All Star team this year,

406
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 2: and you kind of scratch your head, like he's been

407
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 2: great for so long. Yeah, but if you look at

408
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 2: the Western guards since he's entered the NBA, it's like,

409
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 2: all right, are you putting him over Lillard who was

410
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,639
Speaker 2: in Portland for a long time, and Russell Westbrook and

411
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 2: Stephen Curry. So she's a great, great player. I don't

412
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 2: want to take anything away from her, But then you

413
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 2: look at the other players and it's like, boy, i'd

414
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 2: be a little a little different. But I can guarantee

415
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,639
Speaker 2: you this, if she gets that opportunity, she would crush it.

416
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 1: All right. The Olympics later on today. I'm very excited,

417
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 1: and I think soon I will be breaking out the

418
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 1: Team USA hockey sweater that I procured back in the day.

419
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 1: You got another looking forward to that now, I've got

420
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:44,719
Speaker 1: one from two thousand and two that I picked up

421
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: in Salt Lake City, that I where every once in

422
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 1: a while they will play lot Via today, heavy favorites

423
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:54,320
Speaker 1: in that game today, James. There were some great hockey

424
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:58,479
Speaker 1: games yesterday too. Italy, who may be of the twelve teams,

425
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 1: the eleventh or twelfth ranked team. They took Sweden to

426
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: big third period. At one point they had tied the

427
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 1: game at two to two, end up losing it five too,

428
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 1: but they had pushed the Swedes just a little bit.

429
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 1: So we've got that going on. A gold medal for

430
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: the United States and speed skating yesterday, Jordan Stultz wins

431
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 1: gold in the thousand meters and in the Super Gude's

432
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 1: a freak. Yeah he is that final laugh.

433
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 3: I was watching that yesterday, Oh my word, and it

434
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 3: sounds like he could be a very decorated Olympian by

435
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:29,679
Speaker 3: the end of the week. Like he could win they

436
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 3: said three or four golds.

437
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,840
Speaker 1: He looked impressive in that thousand meters and want it

438
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,639
Speaker 1: looked like easily in his heat anyway. Ryan Cochrane Siegel

439
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 1: also won silver in the Super G for the United

440
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 1: States yesterday. Do you watch any curling yesterday? And I

441
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:44,200
Speaker 1: got the men's going on?

442
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:48,120
Speaker 3: Yeah I did, Yeah, we got the men and the women.

443
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 3: So Corey woman, Corey is back. She won this morning.

444
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 3: Caught some highlights this morning of that, so that was

445
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 3: great to see. And shout out to Chloe cam I

446
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 3: believe she has a chance for another gold coming up

447
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:04,400
Speaker 3: up today that hockey game at three ten, so little

448
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 3: afternoon action if you'd like to watch that USA and Latvia.

449
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 3: Now walk me through USA Canada. I mean that's the matchup, right,

450
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 3: I mean, at some point you're more of our hockey guy, Jeff,

451
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 3: And they've left some of the US top goal scorers

452
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 3: off the team. Did I read that correctly?

453
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:21,440
Speaker 1: There's a few, I mean, but it's also like you

454
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 1: were just talking about with the Women's World Cups.

455
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 3: Who sounds like that's the debate for the US and

456
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 3: then for Canada. They're goaltending some of the debate there.

457
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:31,919
Speaker 1: And the thing is too, a lot of people are

458
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 1: criticizing that the way that this tournament has been put together.

459
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:38,680
Speaker 1: There's twelve teams, three essentially divisions of four teams for

460
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,960
Speaker 1: these preliminary rounds, and it's possible, like the top three teams,

461
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 1: you might only see one or two games where they're

462
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 1: playing against one another and it's going to be with

463
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: everything on the line. So you got that going on.

464
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,439
Speaker 1: But the preliminary rounds and we got to god, yes,

465
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,480
Speaker 1: and a very easy group. They should like, I said,

466
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,919
Speaker 1: heavy favorites against Lafia later on today. That's what's happening

467
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,719
Speaker 1: at the Olympics DAYTONA five hundred qualifying took place last night.

468
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 1: Kyle Busch wins the poll. He's looking for his first

469
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,919
Speaker 1: five hundred win in his twenty first try. They've got

470
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:07,600
Speaker 1: the twin races later on tonight. Still two spots up

471
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 1: for grabs for qualifying. There also this sad stuff. I

472
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,639
Speaker 1: don't know if you guys saw this bus crash. This

473
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 1: is the one thing, as somebody who's traveled most of

474
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,920
Speaker 1: my life with teams or been on teams and traveled,

475
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 1: this is the one fear and thing that I always

476
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,359
Speaker 1: just hate because so much of his travel. Right there

477
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 1: was a bus crash affecting the Iowa Lakes baseball team

478
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:33,200
Speaker 1: in early early in the morning yesterday in rural Iowa.

479
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:38,960
Speaker 1: Bus hit a ditch, overturned, One person passed away, thirty injured.

480
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:40,920
Speaker 1: Three people had to be airlifted to a hospital in

481
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: Des Moines. This always hits close to home, whether I

482
00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 1: know people on those teams or know that much about

483
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,879
Speaker 1: the teams, travel, travel, travel, As you know, James and

484
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 1: you too, Kevin is the constant in sports, and it's

485
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: just the one thing that I dread more than anything.

486
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: So shout out and prayers to those folks today. Anything

487
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 1: else you guys wanted.

488
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 3: To throw in, I think he covered it all.

489
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 1: I know.

490
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 3: The combine roster was announced yesterday, a lot of Indiana flavor.

491
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 3: We can may go over a couple of highlights on that.

492
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 3: About a week and a half away from the Combine

493
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 3: here in Indianapolis. And I did see yesterday a report

494
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,399
Speaker 3: Purdue and Gonzaga will be part of the early college

495
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 3: basketball season next year. Out I want to say it

496
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 3: was in Vegas, was the announcement there. So Purdue is

497
00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 3: never shied away in the non conference. And even with

498
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 3: losing all the guys that they will lose, sounds like

499
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 3: they'll have a marquee matchup out of the gate next season.

500
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,479
Speaker 1: All right, quick time out, we'll talk a little bit

501
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,159
Speaker 1: more about the night that was last night. And as

502
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,640
Speaker 1: Kevin said, we have combined invites and there are Indiana

503
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 1: Notre Dame folks littered all over that thing. I'll tell

504
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:40,439
Speaker 1: you about it. As we rolled through the morning here

505
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 1: at ninety three five and one on seven, five of

506
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 1: the fans.

507
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 10: As you were listening to a fan morning show on

508
00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:58,440
Speaker 10: sports radio.

509
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 4: And having five fans.

510
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: Mark's had a nod to James Vanderbeek It. Yeah, lost

511
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 1: him to cancer yesterday. I was bum my wife out.

512
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 1: Quite a bit of distressing to see that as well.

513
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:19,639
Speaker 1: So this morning, yeah, a little tribute to him this morning, Kevin,

514
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 1: I was on social media last night. I sent you

515
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 1: something because I thought you'd appreciate that. We think of

516
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:30,120
Speaker 1: great legacy basketball programs in the United States of America.

517
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 1: And I know things change all the time, that's the

518
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,879
Speaker 1: nature of sports. We've seen the dramatic changes in the

519
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 1: last couple of years or whatever. But could you have

520
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 1: imagined even ten years ago going to a Syracuse Orange

521
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 1: game at the Dome up there in western New York

522
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 1: and at tip off seeing the place maybe fifteen percent full.

523
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: There was a video going around last night of the

524
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: game just before tip and that's what it looked like.

525
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:57,360
Speaker 8: Yeah.

526
00:23:57,480 --> 00:23:59,639
Speaker 3: I mean, you think about the Behim years, and you

527
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:01,640
Speaker 3: know you and if you take out the national championship

528
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 3: team they still had, you know, great, great teams around that,

529
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:07,840
Speaker 3: and honestly, you know, part of me kind of longs

530
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 3: for the old Big East. You know, there's part of

531
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,880
Speaker 3: me that still would love to see you know, those

532
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 3: teams back in the Big East. You know, Syracuse is

533
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 3: playing who they play last night? Cal? Yeah, boy, nothing

534
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 3: says ACC basketball like a Wednesday night game between Cal

535
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 3: and Syracuse. I mean, like, what are we doing? Stanford's

536
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:26,919
Speaker 3: playing Boston College last night.

537
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 1: It's there's nothing there.

538
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,119
Speaker 2: Names at SMU earlier this week, it's like, you know,

539
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:34,200
Speaker 2: what are we doing there? So it's like I have

540
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 2: to get a map out most of the time to

541
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:39,439
Speaker 2: figure out. Okay, these conferences don't really exist anymore.

542
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 3: Say what Matt Taylor, you know he's doing that Indiana

543
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,159
Speaker 3: Sports trivia. If he wanted to broaden it to the

544
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,920
Speaker 3: US and he did some geography on conference realignment, he

545
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 3: could stump some people, he really could. Trying to peg

546
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,119
Speaker 3: exactly what. Yeah, hilarious that Rutgers East Coast u c

547
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 3: l a U s.

548
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: He and that was one of the first dominos to follow.

549
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, many years ago, Spain of Rutgers Big ten. I

550
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,400
Speaker 3: did see Michigan survived last night. Northwestern had them down

551
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 3: decent margin there and that could have flipped the Big

552
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 3: Ten up a little bit. I think that would have.

553
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,720
Speaker 3: Again Michigan came back to win. But right now you've

554
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 3: got those four teams with three losses, Perdue being one

555
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 3: of them in the Big Ten conference, but Michigan still

556
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,000
Speaker 3: with just one loss so far.

557
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:18,399
Speaker 1: Perdue.

558
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,640
Speaker 3: We'll get them next week inside of Mackie. So Purdue's week.

559
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,160
Speaker 3: Next week, they got again Iowa coming up on Saturday,

560
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 3: but the next week they've got Michigan and Indiana inside

561
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 3: of Mackie.

562
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 1: So that's what was going on outside of our region

563
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,479
Speaker 1: for basketball last night. A little bit more on the Pacers.

564
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,200
Speaker 1: If you're just joining us this morning on your way

565
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 1: to work, thanks for tuning us in. As always, we

566
00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:42,119
Speaker 1: appreciate that more than you can even imagine. Indiana Pacers

567
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 1: last night sat Pascal Siakam. They're on the road to

568
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:49,560
Speaker 1: take on the Brooklyn Nets. They sat Passcal Siakam, Andrew Nemhart,

569
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 1: Aaron Nesmith, TJ. McConnell, AVICHA Zubats. They were down double

570
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 1: digits for most of the first half, started to paddle

571
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 1: their way back and messed around and won a basketball

572
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: game last night. James Boyd, you.

573
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:06,640
Speaker 3: Should be very happy you want to go out there.

574
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 1: I'm fine once the game starts. I want the guys

575
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 1: out there to win. I'm okay with that. It's to me.

576
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: The conversation now is what's the what's the best way

577
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 1: to tank? Like at least the guys that the Pacers

578
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,879
Speaker 1: put out there played their butts off and tried to

579
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:23,680
Speaker 1: win last night. He can't get mad at them. It's

580
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 1: what they do. That's why if you ever put it,

581
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 1: if you ever put tanking in the hands of the players,

582
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 1: that won't work. Because players go out there, they want

583
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:31,879
Speaker 1: to win, they want to put themselves on tape, they

584
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 1: want to show out, they want to compete against the

585
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:34,880
Speaker 1: other team.

586
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,040
Speaker 2: As I say, Cam Jones is looking at the roster saying,

587
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 2: you ain't get rid of me next year, I'll be here.

588
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 2: Darren Peterson, why do you need him when you got me?

589
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:45,440
Speaker 3: It is kind of crazy. I was thinking about this

590
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 3: watching the game last night. What should the Pacers do

591
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,959
Speaker 3: to try and tank the best way possible? Like, if

592
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 3: you are in that camp which mark you did the

593
00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:01,440
Speaker 3: poll yesterday, what of our audience wants to see the

594
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 3: Pacers tank or I don't know want is the right word,

595
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 3: but understands why they would want to try and do

596
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 3: that to have the best odds at the top four pick.

597
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 3: Wasn't last night didn't they do that? They sat the

598
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,159
Speaker 3: guys Unlike the next game. You know, we've had two

599
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 3: back to back wins that we've talked about here. The

600
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 3: next game they played the guys, and they played the

601
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 3: guys late. We've seen Utah, for example, not do that.

602
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 3: Utah will play market In, will play some of their guys,

603
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,440
Speaker 3: Jared Jackson Junior. But then when the fourth quarter gets around,

604
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,240
Speaker 3: they say, no, no, no, you're gonna pass out some gatorade.

605
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:38,399
Speaker 3: The Pacers against the Knicks, they played their dudes. But

606
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 3: last night they I mean, Jeff, you just right off

607
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 3: the injury report, so I don't know what else you

608
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 3: can do. I mean, hell, if you want to get technical,

609
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:50,440
Speaker 3: they sat Quinton Jackson late last night. If you would

610
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:53,159
Speaker 3: have told me, given the Pacers personnel last night, did

611
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,119
Speaker 3: jarifs Walker? Was he taking big shots late in the

612
00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:55,719
Speaker 3: game last night?

613
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:56,159
Speaker 11: No?

614
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 3: I mean jarfs Walker and Quintin Jackson are whatever. They're too,

615
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,159
Speaker 3: best players, best guards. I don't even know how you

616
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 3: describe it, given the makeup of the team they put

617
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 3: out there last night, So I don't know what else

618
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 3: you can do. The next game is different. The next

619
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 3: game they play their dudes. Last night they didn't.

620
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:17,399
Speaker 1: You just have to live with.

621
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 3: Your the consequences. And Cam Jones looked like he was

622
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 3: going to help you out there for a minute, and

623
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 3: then he bangs home a three, and then he texted

624
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:28,680
Speaker 3: Kevin Pritchard and said, take that.

625
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:32,800
Speaker 1: Like I said before, there's your second round draft pick

626
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:36,080
Speaker 1: right there, camera on Kevin Pritchard. Are we talking enough though?

627
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 1: About Quentin Jackson's poster dunk? That thing was nasty last night.

628
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 3: He's a freak athlete. Honestly.

629
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 2: When I'll see guys like him do that, it just

630
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 2: reminds you of how athletic most of these guys are.

631
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,400
Speaker 3: I kind of like Quinn Jackson. I don't know if

632
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 3: he fits into like the rotation when everyone's healthy, but

633
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 3: I like to see him keep him around.

634
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 2: I kind of think he's an NBA player, you know,

635
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 2: And now I'll say that, duh, he's gonna be players play.

636
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 2: You just played a game last night. Well what I

637
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,080
Speaker 2: mean by that is, you know, he's used like the

638
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,560
Speaker 2: two way guy, kind of a g leaguer.

639
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 3: In between her.

640
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 1: You think he could be a rotational guy.

641
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 3: I don't say. I didn't say that.

642
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 2: I think he can be an NBA player, meaning he

643
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 2: could be your fifteenth man on a full on, in

644
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 2: a full contract in the NBA.

645
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you were going to trust him in like

646
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 3: a ten minute Benrol, I think he's too volatile to

647
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,479
Speaker 3: trust him. Frankly, like like, let's compare him to Ben Shepard.

648
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 3: Like Ben Shephard for the most part, you know what

649
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 3: you're in a gaate. Quentin Jackson got a little lance

650
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 3: in him. You know, there's just a little craziness, which

651
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 3: again the highs are high.

652
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:35,000
Speaker 1: Trust me.

653
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 3: Look at James Boyd's dating history.

654
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 2: Some of the you know, good crazy can be good

655
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 2: crazy started here on this Thursday morning.

656
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 3: It can't be bad crazy.

657
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 1: But Mark sat up again, got a little alert there

658
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, All of a sudden, Hey.

659
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 3: They were all great women. No geez, that's the most

660
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 3: politically correct thing you've ever said on the show.

661
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,040
Speaker 2: Hey, keep you wouldn't date anybody be canceled here on

662
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 2: the show.

663
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 1: You wouldn't date anybody but a great woman.

664
00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 3: Right, jeez, Jeff Gosh, I'll leave it at that. James,

665
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 3: did we see late last night? I forget who maybe

666
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 3: had the initial reporting, but the Colts potentially have a

667
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 3: new defensive line coach. Yeah, I did see this.

668
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:19,560
Speaker 2: I believe he is the now former Arkansaw running back coach.

669
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 2: And this was from Matt Zennitts. He actually gets a

670
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 2: lot of stuff, a lot of reports from CBS Sports,

671
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 2: so he reported that Arkansaw defensive line coach. I'm sorry,

672
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 2: Marion Hobby is going to be the new Colts defensive

673
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 2: line coach. And Marion Hobby spent several years with Leuan

674
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 2: Erumo in Cincinnati, so there's some rapport there.

675
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, obviously the connection with Louianna Rumo makes sense. Hobby's

676
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 3: background plenty of NFL experience. He was, yeah, as James said,

677
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 3: joined the Arkansas staff. Looked like he was going to

678
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 3: be coaching at Arkansas this year and then now he's

679
00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 3: back in the NFL. But like you said, it was

680
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:03,280
Speaker 3: with Anamo for several seasons before that. I believe Miami

681
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:07,840
Speaker 3: and Jacksonville a couple of stops. So obviously you see

682
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 3: this a lot you saw with Gus Bradley. Now you're

683
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 3: seeing with lou guys, you have the familiar background with

684
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 3: that's who you bring in. So Charlie Partridge, their previous

685
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 3: D line coach left. He had a heavy college background.

686
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,560
Speaker 3: He left to go to Notre Dame to be their

687
00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 3: D line coach. That has opened up obviously that position room.

688
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 3: And you know, this debate has happened a lot. To me,

689
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:30,960
Speaker 3: the Colts have had a lot of different defensive line

690
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 3: coaches in the Chris Ballard era. They've had several defensive

691
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,360
Speaker 3: coordinators that have been different. To me, it's more personnel

692
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:40,480
Speaker 3: than anything. They've tried a bunch of different position coaches.

693
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 3: I pointed to personnel and the need for new personnels,

694
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 3: particularly a defensive end. So I think Coach Hobby should

695
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 3: probably expect some of them.

696
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: You know, I would like to see. I've enjoyed the

697
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 1: weekly updates that Tygrese Haliburton gives on his injured achilles.

698
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,440
Speaker 1: Can we get anything like that from Daniel Jones? Just

699
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 1: this is how I'm progressing, this is what I'm doing,

700
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 1: this is how I'm feeling. Do we get anything like that?

701
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 1: Do you think at all before camp next August?

702
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 3: Zero chance? Think Daniel Jones is doing that.

703
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 2: I don't think Daniel Jones is logged into his Twitter

704
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:15,920
Speaker 2: for sure, and if you has he ever had one,

705
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 2: I believe his Twitter, if you go to it right now,

706
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 2: I want to say he's still in the Giants uniform,

707
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 2: had a couple teams since then, and then his Instagram.

708
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 2: I believe he pulls something at the end of the

709
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 2: season when he got hurt. But for the most part,

710
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 2: it's kind of like Tyler Warm, where they only post

711
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,000
Speaker 2: stuff where they get paid to post it, which I respect.

712
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 6: Daniel Jones is probably still on MySpace in four.

713
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:38,960
Speaker 1: Square it's okay though he knows Tom it's so good.

714
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 3: There's a lot closer to Medos on LinkedIn than he is.

715
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:43,640
Speaker 3: Ziar Franklin on the podcast World.

716
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:45,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I was just I was just curious and

717
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 1: as you guys were talking about that, that's one of

718
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:51,440
Speaker 1: the biggest stories in the offseason. How does he heal,

719
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: how does he progress, when's he going to be ready

720
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: to play, what's it going to look like when he

721
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 1: does come back to play, all those kinds of things.

722
00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 3: I do want to get to that, But just one

723
00:32:58,240 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 3: more in the new d line, coach James I don't

724
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 3: want to overread anything into it. But again, the history

725
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 3: of an ARUMO also means history with Trey Hendrickson. Yeah,

726
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 3: Trey Hendrickson is a free agent. He is also on

727
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 3: the older side. Yeah, Chris Ballard says, we need to

728
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 3: get younger, we need to get faster. How do you

729
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 3: view I guess let's just leave it right there. How

730
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 3: do you view defensive end this offseason? In what way

731
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 3: will they try to improve it? Assuming they will.

732
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 2: It's funny you mentioned that I'm looking at a mock

733
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 2: draft right now that I have to complete later.

734
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 3: Today for the athletic and so I'm drafting.

735
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,280
Speaker 2: I figured I'm going to draft an edge rusher, and

736
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure if I'm Chris Ballard, I'm probably draft

737
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 2: one in the second round, which I just did last year.

738
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 2: But hey, you keep throwing dark to the board and

739
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 2: hope once it one of them hits. So I would

740
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 2: draft one early, second or third round, and then I

741
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 2: would have to add somebody in free agency. But to

742
00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 2: your point about getting younger and faster, you really can't

743
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 2: do that too much in free agency if you want

744
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:09,360
Speaker 2: a proven commodity. So I personally would mind the quote

745
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 2: unquote risk of taking a guy like Trey Hendrickson given

746
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 2: his production over the year, and then he's coming off

747
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,720
Speaker 2: with a core muscle injury, which is an ideal older

748
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 2: guy like you said, Kevin, but he has done it

749
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 2: at a high level at some point in his career.

750
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:26,319
Speaker 2: So I wouldn't mind taking a I don't know, one

751
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 2: year flyer on the guy to say, hey, come play

752
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 2: with us and see if you can, you know, re

753
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 2: establish yourself with one of the more better defensive ends.

754
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:36,240
Speaker 3: In the league. Now, does he want a long term deal? Probably?

755
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:37,239
Speaker 1: Will he get that?

756
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 2: I'm not so sure, but I would definitely try to

757
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:40,840
Speaker 2: get it. I would try to get him here, and

758
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 2: I get it. He's not younger and faster, but he's better.

759
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 2: I mean, could you get any worse than what you

760
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:47,480
Speaker 2: had last year by tyan Trey Hendrickson.

761
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 3: Probably not.

762
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 1: I would think it diminished. Trey Hendrickson would be better

763
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 1: than what you had last year.

764
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 3: And that's my point.

765
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,440
Speaker 6: So various numbers up against the Colts D line, he

766
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:58,360
Speaker 6: probably out gains them quite handedly, exactly.

767
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 2: So that's one where where again we know what Chris

768
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 2: Ballard said, but that can't be the only box or Lens.

769
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 2: You look at upgrading your past rush with and I

770
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 2: also took it as you have to get younger and

771
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,840
Speaker 2: faster on the back end as well with your secondary

772
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 2: some of your cornerbacks McKenny moore. The second is he

773
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,920
Speaker 2: somebody that you keep around this offseason and as was

774
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:22,839
Speaker 2: linebackers as well.

775
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:24,840
Speaker 1: So money Warden need to tell the cults what he

776
00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:28,319
Speaker 1: wants to do before the draft. Does that matter so much?

777
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,480
Speaker 3: Let me slide one moren in on James's point, but

778
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 3: yes to your answer there. Yeah, with Hendrickson, I am

779
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,920
Speaker 3: nervous about the age and the injuries. And if you

780
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 3: look at the free agent edge rushers. You know Jalen Phillips,

781
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:44,799
Speaker 3: the guy we saw trade at the deadline, he went

782
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 3: to Philly. I know he's a name out there. Adolpha

783
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,280
Speaker 3: Oway is a guy that I like. Was in Baltimore

784
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 3: from a first round pick now with the Chargers. He

785
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:54,120
Speaker 3: got traded last year and was really productive for the

786
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 3: Chargers late in the season. He is he's of intrigue

787
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,919
Speaker 3: to me. One thing to note and Mark, I believe

788
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:03,840
Speaker 3: you said we'll have Dan Brigler on the combine.

789
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, looking like the Wednesday of the combine when.

790
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,320
Speaker 3: Dane came out with this top hundred guys for this

791
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,360
Speaker 3: year's draft class, one thing that stood out to me is,

792
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,759
Speaker 3: I want to say he had eight edge rushers in

793
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:18,960
Speaker 3: the top forty. That is a very high number to me.

794
00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 3: Eight edge rushers in the first forty names. Now the

795
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:26,680
Speaker 3: unfortunate nature two that meeting and the Colts would be

796
00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:28,919
Speaker 3: the Colts pick a what what is their pick? James

797
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:33,439
Speaker 3: forty seven, forty seven, So you know, obviously you would

798
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:35,880
Speaker 3: have to hope whatever one of those falls or you

799
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,600
Speaker 3: trade up. But it does sound like there's some good

800
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,879
Speaker 3: edge depth, I guess to this draft class, which again

801
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:43,800
Speaker 3: I think is vital. And to your point, just because

802
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 3: you swung last year doesn't mean that you keep the

803
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:49,279
Speaker 3: bat on your shoulders this year. You got to keep swinging,

804
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,759
Speaker 3: and so that's how I would view edge rush there.

805
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:56,200
Speaker 3: But it does look like a deeper pass rush class, Jeff.

806
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:57,759
Speaker 3: To your point, Yeah, I mean that's I think one

807
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,799
Speaker 3: of the combine questions that I would have is Mooney,

808
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 3: And I think Mooney understood that. He said that at

809
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:05,680
Speaker 3: the end of the season, like, yeah, I need some time,

810
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 3: but you know, I will definitely inform the Colts and

811
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 3: typically when you have these debates in the off season,

812
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 3: this is the time when you figure that out. You'd

813
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 3: give the guy a month and you know, franchise tag

814
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 3: window opens on Tuesday. You know, we're less than a

815
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,879
Speaker 3: month away from free agency in the next few weeks.

816
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,880
Speaker 3: If he hasn't already, Tavarious Award does need to inform

817
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 3: the Colts his plans for twenty twenty six.

818
00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, and again you're doing it in the context of

819
00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,479
Speaker 1: and improving AFC South.

820
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 5: Right.

821
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 1: We saw what Jacksonville did this year, We see what

822
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,920
Speaker 1: Houston has done the last couple of years. Who knows

823
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,640
Speaker 1: what all the changes in Tennessee mean down the line,

824
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,640
Speaker 1: but you better keep up. And the Colts first half

825
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:47,879
Speaker 1: of the season they were it last year. Second half

826
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 1: of the season not so much. And the other team's

827
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 1: just keep it getting better as well. The Colts are

828
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:53,920
Speaker 1: going to have to go some to keep up with

829
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 1: those teams. That's the context of the off season right now.

830
00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 3: Absolutely, and boy, it'll be a very interesting off season.

831
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:03,520
Speaker 1: Well, we've got it covered for you, and we're going

832
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,279
Speaker 1: to talk to Joel a Ericson of The Indie Star

833
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:07,719
Speaker 1: about that a little bit later on today. See what

834
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,319
Speaker 1: he's seeing and hearing and thinking about the colts as

835
00:38:10,360 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 1: they wait until it's hard to believe. Kevin, we we

836
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:14,960
Speaker 1: talked about it yesterday, but the combine is almost here.

837
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,279
Speaker 1: I mean we're we're sitting here in the middle of February. Now,

838
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 1: Valentine's Day is coming up. You guys go on Valentine's Day,

839
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,440
Speaker 1: Mark you goodn't really celebrated.

840
00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:27,279
Speaker 3: So I'm all, good, Oh, good for you. How'd you

841
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 3: get out of that one?

842
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,360
Speaker 6: Well, because it's a fake holiday. I mean, let's be

843
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,960
Speaker 6: real here. We're like, we love each other. We don't

844
00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 6: need a day to say it. We can just Hey,

845
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:37,799
Speaker 6: give me some some more dating advice. I have never

846
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 6: heard a man talk about Valentine'sdy liked this. Well, maybe

847
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:41,120
Speaker 6: you're just because you're with the boys.

848
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,400
Speaker 3: But I'll be honest. Last night I looked at Maddie

849
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:46,400
Speaker 3: and said, we're not doing any gifts for our anniversary

850
00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:49,320
Speaker 3: this year, our anniversaries two days after Valentine's Day. She goes, no,

851
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,200
Speaker 3: I said, I love you. Yeah, we'll go down to

852
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:53,279
Speaker 3: the next dinner or something like that.

853
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:53,960
Speaker 11: But we right.

854
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,160
Speaker 3: I said, I love you. Have I ever told you

855
00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:00,600
Speaker 3: that you're the greatest I love you baby. Nine au

856
00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,879
Speaker 3: guys in the combine? How about that? What a world

857
00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 3: we live in? Nine IU football players, six from South

858
00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:10,839
Speaker 3: bend All offense. You got several former Boilers in the game.

859
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,960
Speaker 3: One guy I'm curious talking to Dan Brugler about Dylan Thieneman,

860
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:18,239
Speaker 3: former produced safety Westfield product, was a key player for

861
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 3: Oregon in their run this year. He's got him pretty

862
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 3: high up on the board there. Can you imagine we

863
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,560
Speaker 3: get a Westfield and the Lawrence North kid in round one?

864
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:31,120
Speaker 3: When's the last time to Indiana high school football players

865
00:39:31,160 --> 00:39:33,800
Speaker 3: have been first round picks. That's a question for Greg Ragstraw.

866
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:40,200
Speaker 3: Mike Chappell. Oh, that's that's so Rake. That's all eight

867
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 3: o'clock tomorrow, Greg, Greg Straw, he'll have the answer by then.

868
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:45,319
Speaker 3: You think we've had that before. I'm trying to think,

869
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 3: you know, Carloftis you know sometimes the the the the

870
00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:50,319
Speaker 3: Jalen Smith group out of Fort Wayne. I mean, Zach

871
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:52,360
Speaker 3: Martin was a first round pick out.

872
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,320
Speaker 2: Again given the amount of talent that is in the

873
00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 2: Indianapolis area. So I'm gonna say yes, but I would

874
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:03,360
Speaker 2: have to do some research.

875
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:06,320
Speaker 1: I was looking at the list last night and we

876
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,560
Speaker 1: all know what a stud. The running back from Notre

877
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 1: Dame is Jeremiah Love Like, he's probably top ten to

878
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 1: fifteen pick, don't you think at some point?

879
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:14,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, he was a beast player.

880
00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:20,680
Speaker 1: And then I didn't. Honestly, I'll be honest with you.

881
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:24,759
Speaker 1: I know he's good, but his Jadarian Price is how

882
00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 1: good is he the other running back?

883
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:26,919
Speaker 4: Yeah?

884
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:28,640
Speaker 3: I think I think a lot of guys have him

885
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 3: as a top five running back. And the thing about Price,

886
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:33,880
Speaker 3: which again we're nerding out a little bit here, but

887
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:37,960
Speaker 3: very good kick returner. And we saw this year the

888
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,319
Speaker 3: new I mean the new rule change. The kick return

889
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:43,680
Speaker 3: matters matters a lot, so I think that would be

890
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:47,719
Speaker 3: advanta you just to him, But man, Jeff, you bring

891
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:49,759
Speaker 3: up those names. It just makes me sad.

892
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 1: Frankly, Well, you're just ready to run it back, aren't you.

893
00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:53,640
Speaker 4: Well you can't.

894
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,320
Speaker 1: You can know I'm talking about You're You're you're excited

895
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 1: about the team. You're telling me that they're they're good

896
00:40:59,080 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 1: to go again next year.

897
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:01,960
Speaker 3: I told you Ryan Bowen booked the hotel room.

898
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:02,959
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying.

899
00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,640
Speaker 3: They don't ever go in Vegas and stayed in a courtyard.

900
00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 3: Marianna at the Convention Center, because that's where the Bowen

901
00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 3: brothers are. Did they have a book out here comes Trouble?

902
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:18,240
Speaker 3: Did they have a Continental in the morning? Probably Vegas,

903
00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:20,839
Speaker 3: as long as there's no limp bake and preach, Mark Dyton, preach.

904
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this as a as a guy who

905
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:26,040
Speaker 1: frequented Las Vegas as a single guy. When I was

906
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 1: in Salt Lake City back.

907
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:31,279
Speaker 3: Stay closed your ears.

908
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 1: I met Christine at a blackjack table in Las Vegas.

909
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:35,240
Speaker 1: Are you sure.

910
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,120
Speaker 3: You made? You made the best bet of your life?

911
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:42,239
Speaker 1: It was. That's probably the most exciting thing about that story.

912
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:43,759
Speaker 1: Though she was there with a bunch of her friends.

913
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:45,800
Speaker 1: I was there with the basketball team, and we just

914
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:49,560
Speaker 1: kind of kept up conversation and ended up meeting each

915
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:51,520
Speaker 1: other in some different cities after a long time. So

916
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:52,440
Speaker 1: it was good.

917
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:57,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, Ricker pulled out that big old stack of cash, especially.

918
00:41:59,680 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 1: Especially back to r and you like head down the strip,

919
00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:05,839
Speaker 1: did not did not frequent the Rhino. But I will

920
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:09,479
Speaker 1: tell you this. My point was, we went two spring

921
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 1: breaks ago. It's not the same Vegas that it was

922
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:14,359
Speaker 1: fifteen twenty years ago.

923
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:16,680
Speaker 3: Oh maybe you're not the same. Maybe Probably the better

924
00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:17,200
Speaker 3: way to put it.

925
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 1: I don't know, this just feels different.

926
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 3: I think if you want to more corporate, if you

927
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 3: want to experience Vegas, you can find yourself experience in Vegas.

928
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:26,200
Speaker 1: I think you can probably do that anywhere though.

929
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:30,480
Speaker 3: Okay, their fastball still throwing ninety eight year fastball. Probably not.

930
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:32,080
Speaker 1: It's always been daddy, no dad?

931
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 5: WHOA?

932
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:43,359
Speaker 1: Where come from? A? When did that come from?

933
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,480
Speaker 3: I do remember you saying this was that real? That

934
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:47,399
Speaker 3: is definitely real.

935
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 1: No daddy, no dad?

936
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:53,480
Speaker 3: And that's from the Vegas trip, Martin Man. I just

937
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:54,400
Speaker 3: want to be accurate.

938
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:56,800
Speaker 1: That sounds like the very end of a story that

939
00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:57,640
Speaker 1: I may have been telling you.

940
00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:01,920
Speaker 3: What to me, boy Man, journalistic integrity. I just want

Speaker 1: Mark Dyton is the orchestrator of all that stuff, just

944
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:10,520
Speaker 1: so you know, and he's Mark proud of it as well.

945
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 1: That's what he's listening for.

946
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:13,400
Speaker 3: He you knows what the biddy's are.

947

Speaker 1: Yod morning. Welcome into a Thursday. It's The Fan Morning

961
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,960
Speaker 1: Show with Kevin Bowen and James Boyd Mark Diychton getting

962
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 1: all the chuckles back there in the control room. I'm

963
00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:12,319
Speaker 1: Jeff Rickard and Kevin. This one for us too. James says,

964
00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 1: is it just me or any of you guys get

965
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:16,839
Speaker 1: in the baseball at seeing pictures and catchers reporting means

966
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,560
Speaker 1: long summer days or around the corner go Reds?

967
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:21,880
Speaker 3: I think the Reds. You're gonna win it all.

968
00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:24,399
Speaker 1: Well, now's the time to say that you're drunk.

969
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:25,799
Speaker 3: Obviously, now's the time.

970
00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 1: Is that what the Cub's doing.

971
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,240
Speaker 6: They're spending money there, they're contender.

972
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,280
Speaker 3: I thought, that's why we're having Joel Erickson on today.

973
00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:35,399
Speaker 6: We have to get him before he's fully distracted, because

974
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:37,440
Speaker 6: you know he's got the depth chart out and he's

975
00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:39,279
Speaker 6: seeing who's going to be in the rotation and all

976
00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:39,800
Speaker 6: that stuff.

977
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:43,799
Speaker 1: I like it, James. They appreciate that. Two three, nine,

978
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:47,400
Speaker 1: ten seventy on the fan text line a lot of basketball.

979
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:49,239
Speaker 1: That's the time of year that we find ourselves in

980
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:52,360
Speaker 1: right now. Over at Hinkle, we saw former mister Basketball

981
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,480
Speaker 1: do his thing last night as Yukon comes in and

982
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:56,560
Speaker 1: gets a hard fought win over I thought a very

983
00:44:56,600 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 1: gutty performance from a very injured, banged up Butler basketball team.

984
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 1: But I thought what was maybe even more interesting than

985
00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 1: the game, which was really fun to watch, was Dan Hurley,

986
00:45:06,719 --> 00:45:09,400
Speaker 1: the coach for Yukon. After the game, Kevin Bowen had

987
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,319
Speaker 1: some interesting things to say, as he always does.

988
00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:14,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, and honestly, if you watch a television broadcast, they

989
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:17,879
Speaker 3: caught a good amount of it. You know, he him

990
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:20,279
Speaker 3: at that mad to have you know, I would say,

991
00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:22,640
Speaker 3: decently long conversation in the handshake line, and then they

992
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:24,880
Speaker 3: I think Hurley stopped Mada on the way off the

993
00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 3: floor and had even a longer conversation, and then he

994
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 3: continued in the postgame press conference. And you know, there

995
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:33,160
Speaker 3: are times I feel like we do see this a

996
00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:36,400
Speaker 3: little bit, particularly in college basketball. You know, coach of

997
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:41,399
Speaker 3: successful program beats other conference foe and then they get

998
00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:45,279
Speaker 3: up in the podium and they just like patronize. I

999
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:47,239
Speaker 3: don't know if that's the right word, but they do

1000
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:48,920
Speaker 3: kind of you know, go down that path. They do

1001
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:52,000
Speaker 3: get very preachy, I guess. But nonetheless, Dan Hurley did

1002
00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:55,960
Speaker 3: not hold back, and he was very candid in addressing

1003
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:59,400
Speaker 3: the resources across the Big East where Butler's standing is

1004
00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 3: can aired to Yukon. For example, this is Dan Hurley

1005
00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:04,800
Speaker 3: last night in regards to Thad Mada in the Butler program.

1006
00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:09,400
Speaker 8: Cash Man, you know money, I mean you need I mean,

1007
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:12,080
Speaker 8: you know, I have an idea of what they've spent.

1008
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:14,680
Speaker 8: I have an idea what they spent. And he should

1009
00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 8: get Big East Coach of the Year for what he said,

1010
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 8: what he did with that team in a non conference

1011
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:20,839
Speaker 8: before he lost his starting point guard and then before

1012
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:22,839
Speaker 8: he lost his Now he's lost his backup point guard.

1013
00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:23,880
Speaker 4: You know, So.

1014
00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:28,560
Speaker 8: You know that that guy, you know what, like I

1015
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 8: coached against coach when he was at Ohio State, obviously

1016
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 8: followed him when he.

1017
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:33,920
Speaker 1: Was at Butler, when I was at Rhody.

1018
00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:37,920
Speaker 8: You know, he went, uh, you know, he beat my

1019
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:40,440
Speaker 8: ass you know, I think in year one or year

1020
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:43,080
Speaker 8: two there the uh you know, one of his great

1021
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:45,960
Speaker 8: Ohio State teams. I mean when it was college basketball,

1022
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:51,880
Speaker 8: like just like recruiting, developing culture, building a program, player development,

1023
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,640
Speaker 8: you know, before this turned into the G League. You know,

1024
00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:58,200
Speaker 8: he he he was, you know, one of the best coaches.

1025
00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:02,600
Speaker 8: So if you give him money and uh, you know,

1026
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:06,480
Speaker 8: you give him eight nine million dollars a year or

1027
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:10,040
Speaker 8: more to actually, you know, a build a team, uh

1028
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:13,200
Speaker 8: that that can compete for championships, he'll do it as

1029
00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,279
Speaker 8: good as any of the coaches in the Big East.

1030
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:17,279
Speaker 8: He's as good as any coach in our league.

1031
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:21,920
Speaker 3: That was high price.

1032
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:23,799
Speaker 1: That was very high praise for a guy who's got

1033
00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:28,560
Speaker 1: two national championships under his belt. And but we've always

1034
00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:30,800
Speaker 1: kind of known, if you if you pay attention around

1035
00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:33,400
Speaker 1: the sport, coaches have always looked up at that Mondit.

1036
00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:35,399
Speaker 1: He's always kind of had that respect from people.

1037
00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:37,080
Speaker 3: Here's the question I have for you all, then, how

1038
00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:42,080
Speaker 3: much you buying that? Yeah, because again, James, there is

1039
00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:47,160
Speaker 3: an element of like you do hear this sometimes from coaches,

1040
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:52,200
Speaker 3: especially after wins like this. But I think and Fad

1041
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:54,640
Speaker 3: was asked about it late in his past conference last night,

1042
00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:56,440
Speaker 3: and and you know, he didn't acknowledge You want to

1043
00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:58,719
Speaker 3: make it seem like he's going with some rant here. No, no, no,

1044
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:00,440
Speaker 3: I mean he'd acknowledge it, maybe with the type of

1045
00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:03,759
Speaker 3: color that Dan Hurley just acknowledged it. But he did say,

1046
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:06,000
Speaker 3: you know, we are trying to do some things, and

1047
00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:09,839
Speaker 3: he mentioned Grant Line Decker their relatively new ad. We're

1048
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:11,920
Speaker 3: trying to do some things from a creative standpoint to

1049
00:48:12,200 --> 00:48:15,040
Speaker 3: increase where we are budget wise. You know, the Big

1050
00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:16,880
Speaker 3: East is one of the more unique conferences in college

1051
00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:21,480
Speaker 3: basketball because outside of Yukon, where are the football programs

1052
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:24,880
Speaker 3: funding these Big East schools? Yeah, you know, there's just

1053
00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:27,719
Speaker 3: not there. But then you have Villanova in Philly, you

1054
00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:30,080
Speaker 3: have Marquette in Milwaukee. You know, you have a lot

1055
00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:32,560
Speaker 3: of these teams. Severally these teams are playing in NBA arenas,

1056
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:35,440
Speaker 3: which is kind of wild when you look at that conference. So,

1057
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:39,520
Speaker 3: you know, I think it's a very fair statement to

1058
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:42,120
Speaker 3: say Butler is not sitting at the big kids table

1059
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:45,080
Speaker 3: when it comes to Big East from a resource standpoint.

1060
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:48,239
Speaker 3: And I think when Dan Hurley says, I think he's

1061
00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:50,719
Speaker 3: exactly right. I mean, Butler was certainly a tournament team

1062
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:53,920
Speaker 3: entering the Big East, and then a slew of injuries

1063
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:56,080
Speaker 3: took place. And I think one thing about the nil

1064
00:48:56,160 --> 00:49:01,800
Speaker 3: era is I think it's hurting the depth of teams

1065
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:06,200
Speaker 3: so much. I think it's really difficult to withstand injuries

1066
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:10,120
Speaker 3: because why is the eighth or ninth guy going to

1067
00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:14,440
Speaker 3: stay at your place and listen to the grow and

1068
00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,000
Speaker 3: develop mindset and hey, you might sit here for a

1069
00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:20,200
Speaker 3: year or two, but then you'll get your opportunity. Well yeah,

1070
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:24,080
Speaker 3: that sounds good, and it might have been what whatever

1071
00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:26,839
Speaker 3: Chris Holtman could have preached seven or eight years ago,

1072
00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:29,759
Speaker 3: but that's not reality of their situation. And look how

1073
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 3: many new faces are on the Butler roster.

1074
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:32,480
Speaker 4: What is it?

1075
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:35,479
Speaker 3: Bis Jack and Haywood the only guys that are back

1076
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:41,319
Speaker 3: from last year. So it's just it is jarring when

1077
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:45,800
Speaker 3: you hear the figure, you know, when Hurley says what

1078
00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:50,319
Speaker 3: he say, eight nine million or more. Let me think

1079
00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:55,880
Speaker 3: about that, Like, that's the reality of where college basketball

1080
00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 3: is at these days. And you know, we're you know

1081
00:49:58,080 --> 00:49:59,920
Speaker 3: pre I mean obviously Indiana fans they look at their

1082
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:03,080
Speaker 3: team and think, you know, there's probably not a college

1083
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:05,880
Speaker 3: basketball program that's gotten least return on investment from their

1084
00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:09,279
Speaker 3: team in Indiana over the last you know, four or

1085
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:11,440
Speaker 3: five years, have everyone to define the NIL era there.

1086
00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:13,640
Speaker 3: So I'll be curious. I'll be curious if that model

1087
00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:17,160
Speaker 3: wants to continue to be in this era. I'll be

1088
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:20,799
Speaker 3: curious if Butler wants to run it back for another year.

1089
00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:24,399
Speaker 3: You can't ignore the injuries. But you know, again, there's

1090
00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:26,120
Speaker 3: been some struggles the first couple of years. And you

1091
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:28,719
Speaker 3: know the counter that would be val Jordan maybe didn't

1092
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:32,520
Speaker 3: leave them in the best spot possible when he took over.

1093
00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:35,400
Speaker 3: You know, is the guy that we had on yesterday,

1094
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:39,200
Speaker 3: where did he go to college? Travis Steel went to Butler?

1095
00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:39,680
Speaker 7: Is that?

1096
00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:42,960
Speaker 3: And that you know Miami Ohio's NIL ranking in the MAC.

1097
00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:45,600
Speaker 3: I mean, all of these things are very relevant.

1098
00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:47,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you talk about NIL for a couple of

1099
00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:50,439
Speaker 1: those teams in the Big East too. It doesn't hurt

1100
00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:56,839
Speaker 1: a Villanova that they've got multiple national championships side, right,

1101
00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,800
Speaker 1: it doesn't. It doesn't hurt Yukon that they've got so

1102
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:03,040
Speaker 1: many national championships in the last twenty five thirty years.

1103
00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:06,120
Speaker 1: It doesn't hurt Saint John's that they're in the number

1104
00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:08,880
Speaker 1: one media market in the world and they've got a

1105
00:51:09,040 --> 00:51:12,719
Speaker 1: coach that has national championship pedigree. Those things go a

1106
00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:14,640
Speaker 1: long way for schools that don't have football, and not

1107
00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:15,560
Speaker 1: everybody has those.

1108
00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:19,239
Speaker 2: I think you all make some very good points, very

1109
00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:22,160
Speaker 2: good points, and honestly, again, I'll just laugh at the

1110
00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:24,600
Speaker 2: fact that he called it the G League whatever it

1111
00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:26,120
Speaker 2: is now, because it's.

1112
00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:28,560
Speaker 1: Playing player development. Baby won and done well.

1113
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:30,200
Speaker 3: And again I think Fad said that to us. I

1114
00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:32,200
Speaker 3: asked him something a few weeks ago about I think

1115
00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:34,960
Speaker 3: it was the Alabama kid, the Charles Bettiaco, you know,

1116
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,400
Speaker 3: coming back to play, and I want to say Thad's

1117
00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:40,680
Speaker 3: first response was like, well, first off, I wouldn't call

1118
00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:42,600
Speaker 3: it college basketball anymore. I think I asked him, like,

1119
00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:45,000
Speaker 3: what would be one guardrail you wanted to establish in

1120
00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:48,200
Speaker 3: college basketball? He said, well, it's not that. And you

1121
00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:53,719
Speaker 3: are seeing some of this too around again college basketball

1122
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:58,560
Speaker 3: of when you hire a new coach at times, all

1123
00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:02,719
Speaker 3: of a sudden that new coach brings in funding. Now,

1124
00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:04,840
Speaker 3: I don't want to say that like the coach is

1125
00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:07,279
Speaker 3: just sitting there on a pile of cash, the new coach,

1126
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:11,520
Speaker 3: but your alumni base, your boosters, they might be more

1127
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:16,759
Speaker 3: encouraged by Hey, you're trying to do something differently. Here's

1128
00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:19,200
Speaker 3: a little bit more of a financial contribution that I

1129
00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:21,080
Speaker 3: wouldn't have been willing to make to the previously, Like.

1130
00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:23,319
Speaker 1: Saint John's getting a Rick Patina right now.

1131
00:52:23,360 --> 00:52:26,160
Speaker 3: Obviously Rick Patino's in a different stratosphere, but like even

1132
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:30,799
Speaker 3: some of these other whatever, lower profile head coaches here.

1133
00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:35,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So that's what's going on in college basketball

1134
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:39,200
Speaker 1: from last night. Also, the Pacers can't say it didn't

1135
00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 1: try James. Look at that injury list last night. Guys

1136
00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:44,480
Speaker 1: who did not play for the Pacers. They were doing

1137
00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:46,520
Speaker 1: their best to not win that basketball game when the

1138
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:47,960
Speaker 1: game started.

1139
00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:50,560
Speaker 3: What do you guys say to people that I feel

1140
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:56,040
Speaker 3: like the Pacers should be trying more? Two Tank, Oh,

1141
00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:57,160
Speaker 3: I thought you've been trying more to win.

1142
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:59,480
Speaker 1: I don't know what else you can do when you

1143
00:52:59,520 --> 00:53:02,760
Speaker 1: sit past Scaliaka, Andrew Nemmard, Aaron E. Smith, TJ. McConnell,

1144
00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:05,239
Speaker 1: and a Viza Zubats all at the same time, what

1145
00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:06,360
Speaker 1: what what can you do?

1146
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:07,120
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1147
00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:09,280
Speaker 2: I think that's a good question that Jeff just asked.

1148
00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:13,879
Speaker 2: So are you saying, like just sit them the rest

1149
00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:15,960
Speaker 2: of the season or well, Okay, so we have seen

1150
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,520
Speaker 2: the Pacers win back to back games, right, they had

1151
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:20,520
Speaker 2: different fashions, though I will see exactly.

1152
00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:22,200
Speaker 3: So that's what I want to point out. They handled

1153
00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:24,279
Speaker 3: the New York game much different than the Brooklyn game.

1154
00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:27,600
Speaker 3: The New York game, they played their dudes, They played Siakam,

1155
00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:30,200
Speaker 3: they played them hard, they played Nie Smith, and they

1156
00:53:30,239 --> 00:53:33,120
Speaker 3: played them in the fourth quarter in overtime, right, Whereas

1157
00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:35,400
Speaker 3: we've seen some teams in the tank not do that,

1158
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:37,520
Speaker 3: play their guys, but then stop when the game's on

1159
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:40,680
Speaker 3: the line. Now, last night with the Nets, the team

1160
00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:43,440
Speaker 3: that's right there in the lottery standings, they sat I

1161
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:46,000
Speaker 3: mean Jeff ratt off the injury report earlier in the show.

1162
00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:49,640
Speaker 3: So I my response to my own question would be,

1163
00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:52,960
Speaker 3: I don't think they can do anything differently than they

1164
00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:53,760
Speaker 3: did last.

1165
00:53:53,600 --> 00:53:56,399
Speaker 1: Night, because you can't tell a guy.

1166
00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:58,080
Speaker 3: I mean, you're not gonna tell Cam Jones to miss

1167
00:53:58,120 --> 00:53:58,359
Speaker 3: the three.

1168
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:01,840
Speaker 1: Now, these two guys playing for his virtual NBA life

1169
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:03,160
Speaker 1: every time he gets out on the floor.

1170
00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:07,799
Speaker 2: And that's a very good point Jeff makes. Again, it's tough,

1171
00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:11,480
Speaker 2: it's a weird situation to be in. But also don't

1172
00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:13,359
Speaker 2: I don't want to overreact to it, but you look

1173
00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:17,840
Speaker 2: at these standings now and the top four lottery pick odds,

1174
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:19,719
Speaker 2: you did drop a little bit when it comes to

1175
00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:22,799
Speaker 2: the percentage points from yesterday's one, I believe they're now

1176
00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:25,759
Speaker 2: like what forty eight percent to get a top four pick.

1177
00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:29,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, so they were at fifty two before the two wins.

1178
00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:33,960
Speaker 3: They've dropped the forty eight and if they drop two

1179
00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:36,520
Speaker 3: more spots, which right now is about three games, that

1180
00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:41,200
Speaker 3: would be utah, those odds would shrink by about ten

1181
00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:43,480
Speaker 3: more percent. So you're looking at and again, I hate

1182
00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:44,960
Speaker 3: to throw all these numbers out there, but it's a

1183
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:48,239
Speaker 3: reality of where we're at with the lottery. You're at

1184
00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:50,160
Speaker 3: fifty two percent when you made the trade for a

1185
00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:54,280
Speaker 3: top four pick. If you continue to win, you know whatever,

1186
00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:58,000
Speaker 3: you could be at thirty five percent, thirty seven percent

1187
00:54:58,840 --> 00:54:59,759
Speaker 3: by the end of this month.

1188
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:01,560
Speaker 6: And you see who they play when they come out

1189
00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:01,959
Speaker 6: of the break.

1190
00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:06,600
Speaker 3: Whiz baby. Back to back games against the Wizards. Now

1191
00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:09,920
Speaker 3: again that first game mark you said back to back

1192
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:13,200
Speaker 3: Thursday Friday. They usually sit their dudes the second out

1193
00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:15,680
Speaker 3: of the back to back. Will they sit them the

1194
00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:19,279
Speaker 3: first night because everything says that's what you should do,

1195
00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:21,040
Speaker 3: and that would be the question now I have when

1196
00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:22,960
Speaker 3: they get back from the All Star break, do we

1197
00:55:23,080 --> 00:55:25,520
Speaker 3: see more of the second night of the back to

1198
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:29,279
Speaker 3: back resting? And trust me, I'm doing the quote sign

1199
00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:31,759
Speaker 3: for those that can't see it. Do we see that

1200
00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:36,399
Speaker 3: more routinely? Because when they play teams like Washington, Mark,

1201
00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:39,640
Speaker 3: to your point, those are the games that matter twice.

1202
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:44,920
Speaker 3: Those are like your divisional games in the NFL. But

1203
00:55:45,080 --> 00:55:47,080
Speaker 3: now that's a round of where you're at for me,

1204
00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:48,800
Speaker 3: Tank Stamp.

1205
00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:50,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hit the simulate the lottery again. You're already

1206
00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:55,560
Speaker 1: on the tankathon dot com and it was number four

1207
00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:59,640
Speaker 1: last hour, Number one, ladies and gentlemen, I got this time.

1208
00:56:00,239 --> 00:56:04,080
Speaker 1: Look at that, followed by New Orleans, Washington in Dallas.

1209
00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:07,120
Speaker 1: I might not make another one. Mark, I'm just gonna

1210
00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:07,600
Speaker 1: keep that one.

1211
00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:13,239
Speaker 3: Jazz got fined last year for resting, Yes, they did.

1212
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:17,560
Speaker 3: So how do you how do you rule on that?

1213
00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:19,600
Speaker 1: Well, they got a coach who doesn't even call timeouts

1214
00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:22,040
Speaker 1: late in games. Now, so how do you like.

1215
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:27,400
Speaker 3: Literally judge that? Well, again, this was last year, so

1216
00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:30,240
Speaker 3: to and by the way, fines I think are idiotic.

1217
00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:33,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I'll explain why they got They got fined

1218
00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:36,720
Speaker 2: one hundred thousand dollars last year in March for sitting

1219
00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:40,520
Speaker 2: Laurier marketing in a game against the Wizards. And the

1220
00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:43,279
Speaker 2: reason why they got fined was because of the I

1221
00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:47,120
Speaker 2: think it's like that star policy that they have where

1222
00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:50,160
Speaker 2: you can't rest guys in what would be like I

1223
00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:51,840
Speaker 2: don't know if that was a nationally televised game or

1224
00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:53,040
Speaker 2: something like that, but.

1225
00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:55,279
Speaker 3: I believe it. Ord knows the Pacers aren't going to

1226
00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:56,000
Speaker 3: be on national TV.

1227
00:56:56,200 --> 00:56:59,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I believe it's something of that realm where

1228
00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:02,759
Speaker 2: the NBA has kind of lad it out where if

1229
00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:05,040
Speaker 2: you've made an All Star team within the last few years,

1230
00:57:05,640 --> 00:57:07,440
Speaker 2: there are certain guys and when it comes up to

1231
00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:10,000
Speaker 2: these national games, you have to play them. You can't

1232
00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:12,120
Speaker 2: rest them. They have to have legitimate injury. So I

1233
00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:14,480
Speaker 2: think that's why they got fined as much as they

1234
00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:15,200
Speaker 2: did last year.

1235
00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:18,320
Speaker 1: Right now, the problem that the NBA has, and it's

1236
00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:20,800
Speaker 1: no secret people been talking about it, but you have

1237
00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:26,680
Speaker 1: literally a third of the league that are not interested

1238
00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:27,960
Speaker 1: in winning basketball games.

1239
00:57:28,160 --> 00:57:29,720
Speaker 2: Mark, do you want to weigh in on this, because

1240
00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:32,600
Speaker 2: I think, well, I'll speaking for myself, I'll probably cut

1241
00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:37,560
Speaker 2: you off yesterday. But just the fandom part, I think

1242
00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:40,760
Speaker 2: You really hit a lot of strong points yesterday about

1243
00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:43,600
Speaker 2: the whole fan experience because we're looking at it, and

1244
00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:46,040
Speaker 2: granted I'm used to doing it like that as a reporter.

1245
00:57:46,120 --> 00:57:47,920
Speaker 2: You look at it from a team perspective and a

1246
00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:51,080
Speaker 2: team building perspective, and then you kind of lose sight of, well,

1247
00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:53,320
Speaker 2: there would be no games and teams and all this

1248
00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:55,560
Speaker 2: stuff if the fans weren't there to support you and

1249
00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:58,080
Speaker 2: to enjoy themselves. So how do you, like, I guess

1250
00:57:58,200 --> 00:58:00,560
Speaker 2: way in on the whole tanking thing in the NBA

1251
00:58:00,760 --> 00:58:03,960
Speaker 2: to your point mark of it happening so soon as well?

1252
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:06,440
Speaker 6: Well, yeah, My point is what I was saying yesterday

1253
00:58:06,440 --> 00:58:08,320
Speaker 6: and I have said on social media and stuff, is

1254
00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:11,840
Speaker 6: like right now is when the NBA should be getting

1255
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:15,040
Speaker 6: an uptick in viewership and ratings. The NFL season just ended,

1256
00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:18,800
Speaker 6: baseball season hasn't started yet, the hockey audience isn't what

1257
00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:20,400
Speaker 6: it used to be. This is the time that the

1258
00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:23,080
Speaker 6: NBA black fans are like, Okay, the NBA season starts now,

1259
00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:26,320
Speaker 6: Football season's over. College football is over, Like I'm ready

1260
00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:28,800
Speaker 6: to dive into some hoops action. And then you turn

1261
00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:30,720
Speaker 6: on the TV and you're watching these teams and you're

1262
00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:34,760
Speaker 6: seeing margins of victories by like twenty points on regular

1263
00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:37,120
Speaker 6: nights and stuff. And we were going over we watched

1264
00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:39,200
Speaker 6: the game work who was playing on the nets last night.

1265
00:58:39,600 --> 00:58:42,160
Speaker 6: It's one of those things where as a fan, you

1266
00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:44,760
Speaker 6: turn on and you look at the product and you're like, wait,

1267
00:58:44,840 --> 00:58:46,720
Speaker 6: let me look at the calendar real quick. It's early

1268
00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:50,320
Speaker 6: February and half a quarter a third of the league

1269
00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:53,320
Speaker 6: is already tanking. We're already turning the page to the

1270
00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:56,520
Speaker 6: next season. We're already tanking for draft picks. Why in

1271
00:58:56,600 --> 00:58:58,760
Speaker 6: the hell should I spend my heart earned money or

1272
00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:01,760
Speaker 6: my time or try to get my kids to watch

1273
00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:04,560
Speaker 6: or go to a game when the product on the

1274
00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:08,320
Speaker 6: court is god awful? Like, why would I have an

1275
00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:11,800
Speaker 6: incentive to try to encourage my family or anything like

1276
00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:15,280
Speaker 6: that to put time aside or money aside to watch

1277
00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:18,520
Speaker 6: a product where the league isn't even trying to produce

1278
00:59:18,560 --> 00:59:21,640
Speaker 6: an interesting product. What'd I spend harder money when I

1279
00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:23,959
Speaker 6: don't even know if any stars are going to play?

1280
00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:25,640
Speaker 3: Like, what is the point?

1281
00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:28,560
Speaker 6: Why am I going to subscribe to FanDuel Sports Network

1282
00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:30,160
Speaker 6: on a given night? First of all, if it does,

1283
00:59:30,360 --> 00:59:32,600
Speaker 6: if it works at all, And second, of all, if

1284
00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:34,120
Speaker 6: I don't even know who's going to play, and if

1285
00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:36,400
Speaker 6: I've already seen the team throw in the towel and

1286
00:59:36,520 --> 00:59:38,439
Speaker 6: we still have two and a half months of season left,

1287
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:42,480
Speaker 6: where's the incentive as a fan to be in remotely

1288
00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:46,400
Speaker 6: interested in the NBA right now? The veterans like Lebron

1289
00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:49,000
Speaker 6: and Steph they're injured, they're not playing. Where are the

1290
00:59:49,080 --> 00:59:52,160
Speaker 6: young stars? Where is the interest level at I don't

1291
00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:55,920
Speaker 6: think I've been this disinterested in the NBA product in.

1292
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:57,880
Speaker 3: A long time, and I think I don't think I'm

1293
00:59:57,880 --> 00:59:58,680
Speaker 3: in the minority on that.

1294
00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:00,840
Speaker 6: I think a lot of people are saying I'm not

1295
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:04,200
Speaker 6: interested since these players are interested. There's all these rest days,

1296
01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:06,400
Speaker 6: there's all these other things going on that never happened

1297
01:00:06,440 --> 01:00:08,760
Speaker 6: back in the day. These guys are getting millions of dollars.

1298
01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:11,880
Speaker 6: If they're not interested in the sport they play, why

1299
01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:12,400
Speaker 6: should I be?

1300
01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:13,240
Speaker 3: Facts?

1301
01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:15,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, preach Mark now, And I'm going to ask you

1302
01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:18,200
Speaker 1: a question too, Chicago right now. I know you pay

1303
01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:20,680
Speaker 1: a little bit of attention to the Bulls still, but

1304
01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:24,200
Speaker 1: they have a tenth worst record in the league and

1305
01:00:24,280 --> 01:00:27,920
Speaker 1: they have lost six games in a row. Are they

1306
01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:32,520
Speaker 1: actually trying to improve their draft position, or they just

1307
01:00:32,760 --> 01:00:34,160
Speaker 1: that's just all they can do right now.

1308
01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:37,800
Speaker 6: I think their sell off at the deadline is something

1309
01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:39,560
Speaker 6: they should have done probably a couple years ago. Maybe

1310
01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:42,040
Speaker 6: they could have gotten some better draft compensation for it.

1311
01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:45,560
Speaker 6: But the Bulls the last decade right now have kind

1312
01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:48,440
Speaker 6: of been in basketball hell where they suck at sucking.

1313
01:00:48,600 --> 01:00:51,600
Speaker 6: They should tank and they don't, and then they end

1314
01:00:51,680 --> 01:00:53,720
Speaker 6: up making the playing game against the heat and they

1315
01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:56,480
Speaker 6: end up with a mid level draft pick. So they're

1316
01:00:56,520 --> 01:00:58,360
Speaker 6: never bad enough to be at the top of the

1317
01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:00,400
Speaker 6: draft board, and they're never good enough to actually make

1318
01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:02,280
Speaker 6: any noise in the playoffs. So that's like the worst

1319
01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:03,840
Speaker 6: place to be as a fan base.

1320
01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:06,480
Speaker 3: And again, I think this is a league issue, not

1321
01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:09,440
Speaker 3: a team. Yes, this is a league issue. And they

1322
01:01:09,560 --> 01:01:12,200
Speaker 3: tried to flatten the lottery odds five or six years ago.

1323
01:01:12,240 --> 01:01:14,680
Speaker 3: I forget the exact year of making it more even.

1324
01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:16,520
Speaker 3: I think we've talked about this, like the one, two,

1325
01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:18,320
Speaker 3: and three worst teams in the league they all get

1326
01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:21,040
Speaker 3: the same odds, And some people have said, hey, why

1327
01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:23,960
Speaker 3: don't you just flatten the entire lottery? Why not everybody

1328
01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:27,440
Speaker 3: get the same odds? You know, that's been a bit

1329
01:01:27,480 --> 01:01:30,880
Speaker 3: of a counter there to it, but I mean it's

1330
01:01:30,920 --> 01:01:35,840
Speaker 3: really they're I would say this rather confidently. There are

1331
01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:38,720
Speaker 3: people in the Pacers organizations that last night that were

1332
01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:42,680
Speaker 3: disappointed when Cam Jones hit the three. Yes, that is

1333
01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:47,280
Speaker 3: not healthy like that is. I was half joking, half

1334
01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:49,360
Speaker 3: serious when I let off the show with I want

1335
01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:54,080
Speaker 3: cameras on Kevin Pritchard, Jab Buchanan, Ted Wu, Kelly Crosscoff

1336
01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:58,040
Speaker 3: When who can fake their emotion to say they're happy?

1337
01:01:58,200 --> 01:02:00,200
Speaker 3: The Pacers put the pick parameters in there for a

1338
01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:04,160
Speaker 3: reason one to four like they wanted them for a reason.

1339
01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:05,400
Speaker 3: They want one of those picks.

1340
01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:09,160
Speaker 2: Well, then here's a going back to your point about

1341
01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:11,720
Speaker 2: Lowyer marketing last year, I looked it up Kevin, so

1342
01:02:11,800 --> 01:02:14,640
Speaker 2: they were fine hundred thousand dollars and he was fined

1343
01:02:14,760 --> 01:02:17,240
Speaker 2: or they were fine because marketing is quote a star

1344
01:02:17,400 --> 01:02:20,680
Speaker 2: player under their new policy, which basically means if you

1345
01:02:20,720 --> 01:02:22,760
Speaker 2: were an All Star within the last few years, you

1346
01:02:22,880 --> 01:02:26,480
Speaker 2: have to be made available to play a reasonable basis.

1347
01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:30,080
Speaker 2: And looking back at this story from ESPN, he had

1348
01:02:30,200 --> 01:02:34,080
Speaker 2: missed I want to say, about a month of basketball

1349
01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:37,800
Speaker 2: and it was listed as injury management on his lower back.

1350
01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:40,680
Speaker 2: And then once they find them he played the next game.

1351
01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:45,320
Speaker 3: So I think it's not why they're playing him right

1352
01:02:45,400 --> 01:02:48,120
Speaker 3: now like he because they are doing exactly they are

1353
01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:49,000
Speaker 3: part playing.

1354
01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:52,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then you just pull them, I think, and

1355
01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:54,360
Speaker 2: so to kind of tie to the pacers. I think

1356
01:02:54,440 --> 01:02:58,520
Speaker 2: the problem you would run into with a tank in

1357
01:02:58,640 --> 01:03:01,360
Speaker 2: all out tank is if you just don't play Pascal Siakam,

1358
01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:04,160
Speaker 2: because he will fall into that star rule of he's

1359
01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:05,720
Speaker 2: an All Star this year. He's got to be made

1360
01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:09,120
Speaker 2: available to the fan base or whatever in not only

1361
01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:10,280
Speaker 2: this city but other cities.

1362
01:03:10,680 --> 01:03:15,200
Speaker 3: So the theory, at least my theory is going forward.

1363
01:03:15,520 --> 01:03:19,360
Speaker 2: If you want to tank, then you play Pascal Siakam

1364
01:03:19,640 --> 01:03:21,320
Speaker 2: three quarters and you sit them in the fourth quarter.

1365
01:03:22,520 --> 01:03:26,000
Speaker 3: That I actually don't.

1366
01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:31,760
Speaker 2: But also wonder if that's a conversation you have to

1367
01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:34,440
Speaker 2: have internally, because I believe they must have had one

1368
01:03:34,520 --> 01:03:37,280
Speaker 2: a few years ago when they lost the last ten

1369
01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:40,280
Speaker 2: and twenty twenty two after they traded for Halliburton. Well,

1370
01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:43,040
Speaker 2: I can't even I'll say this you support them the team.

1371
01:03:43,040 --> 01:03:45,320
Speaker 2: I can say this for a fact, they had to

1372
01:03:45,440 --> 01:03:49,600
Speaker 2: have a conversation internally to decide, hey, guys, it might

1373
01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:51,640
Speaker 2: be better if we win twenty five games than thirty

1374
01:03:51,680 --> 01:03:55,720
Speaker 2: five exactly. So are you going to have that same

1375
01:03:55,800 --> 01:03:59,600
Speaker 2: conversation at some point to say, hey, big picture here,

1376
01:04:00,680 --> 01:04:02,360
Speaker 2: we put these parameters on this pick for a reason.

1377
01:04:02,440 --> 01:04:05,240
Speaker 2: We understand what you guys are doing, but we got

1378
01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:06,720
Speaker 2: to step in and make sure that we do what's

1379
01:04:06,760 --> 01:04:09,960
Speaker 2: best for the overall team directional standpoint.

1380
01:04:10,240 --> 01:04:12,880
Speaker 6: And that's fine and dandy, But you're looking at twenty

1381
01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:16,520
Speaker 6: seven games left in the regulars. I agree, it's from

1382
01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:19,200
Speaker 6: an NFL standpoint. Let's my math isn't the best, but

1383
01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:21,080
Speaker 6: that's like five or six games. So let's just say

1384
01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:23,560
Speaker 6: that puts us at week ten on the NFL season.

1385
01:04:23,680 --> 01:04:26,520
Speaker 6: You were telling an NFL fan base at week ten,

1386
01:04:26,920 --> 01:04:28,760

1401
01:05:09,040 --> 01:05:11,240

1403

1406
01:05:22,960 --> 01:05:24,160
Speaker 3: thrilled and bah blah blah.

1407
01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:26,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's just bunning that they won.

1408
01:05:26,720 --> 01:05:29,280
Speaker 3: Shout out Cam Jones. Have you stepped back? Three dagger?

1409
01:05:29,800 --> 01:05:32,640
Speaker 3: If you watch the final minute, Cam Jones looked like

1410
01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:35,720
Speaker 3: he was tanking and then all of a sudden stopped saying,

1411
01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:38,080
Speaker 3: I'll be a hater like Kevin Bowen, Peter big shot.

1412
01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:40,760
Speaker 2: Only remember the highlights. Only remember the good parts. I

1413
01:05:40,840 --> 01:05:42,200
Speaker 2: don't care about those turnovers.

1414
01:05:42,280 --> 01:05:44,240
Speaker 1: You see that bucket at the end if you want to,

1415
01:05:44,360 --> 01:05:46,360
Speaker 1: If you want to look at the highlight from last night,

1416
01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:50,480
Speaker 1: go find a posting of the Quinton Jackson dunk last night.

1417
01:05:50,560 --> 01:05:52,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, that belongs in a slam magazine. Is there a

1418
01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:55,400
Speaker 3: sports illustrated somewhere? Anything to read into. They didn't play

1419
01:05:55,440 --> 01:06:00,919
Speaker 3: Jaris Walker or Quentin Jackson late. That is right, you're personnel. Yeah,

1420
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:03,280
Speaker 3: that's kind of what the Jazz have done.

1421
01:06:03,560 --> 01:06:04,160
Speaker 4: That is true.

1422
01:06:04,280 --> 01:06:06,479
Speaker 3: You play your frontline guys and you stop now again

1423
01:06:06,840 --> 01:06:09,760
Speaker 3: siakam Nemharnie Smith, those guys are a different.

1424
01:06:09,560 --> 01:06:11,960
Speaker 2: Name failed when you know, I guess those are the

1425
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:13,600
Speaker 2: same house for sure recognition.

1426
01:06:13,680 --> 01:06:15,560
Speaker 3: But Jars Walker had wet last night twenty five something

1427
01:06:15,600 --> 01:06:18,120
Speaker 3: like three and now and he wasn't out on the floor.

1428
01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:18,360
Speaker 4: Lake.

1429
01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:22,480
Speaker 1: That now ends what is the unofficial first half of

1430
01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:25,040
Speaker 1: the NBA season for the Pacers, even though they've played

1431
01:06:25,080 --> 01:06:26,880
Speaker 1: more than half their games. They hit the All Star

1432
01:06:26,960 --> 01:06:30,680
Speaker 1: break at fifteen and forty. Also college basketball, last night,

1433
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:34,360
Speaker 1: heinkle Fieldhouse, Yukon beat Butler eighty to seventy. I thought

1434
01:06:34,440 --> 01:06:37,480
Speaker 1: Butler or Butler was gutty. They hung in there, they

1435
01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:39,479
Speaker 1: played as well as they could, but too much solo

1436
01:06:39,600 --> 01:06:42,280
Speaker 1: ball twenty four points for the Huskies and Braylan Mullens

1437
01:06:43,120 --> 01:06:47,080
Speaker 1: from Greenwood Central fifteen points, five rebounds, and the former

1438
01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:51,640
Speaker 1: mister Indiana basketball looking good last night as Yukon gets

1439
01:06:51,640 --> 01:06:54,320
Speaker 1: a ten point win. Coming up this weekend, Purdue plays

1440
01:06:54,320 --> 01:06:57,880
Speaker 1: at Iowa Saturday, Indiana at Illinois on Sunday. At the

1441
01:06:57,920 --> 01:07:01,080
Speaker 1: Olympic speed skater Jordan Stoles, the United States wins gold

1442
01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:04,440
Speaker 1: in the thousand meters. Ryan Cochran Siegel won silver in

1443
01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:07,960
Speaker 1: the super g Are you guys into short track speeds?

1444
01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:08,520
Speaker 1: Getting it all?

1445
01:07:10,560 --> 01:07:13,360
Speaker 3: I don't know what comes away later on? But is

1446
01:07:13,400 --> 01:07:17,120
Speaker 3: that based on the circle they're basically left the five hundred?

1447
01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:19,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, but they're basically doing it on ice that fits

1448
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:23,200
Speaker 1: in an arena as opposed to the big outside and

1449
01:07:23,360 --> 01:07:26,320
Speaker 1: it's crazy crashes sometimes going in the last lap or

1450
01:07:26,320 --> 01:07:28,600
Speaker 1: two because everyone's trying to get that angle. It's kind

1451
01:07:28,600 --> 01:07:28,880
Speaker 1: of fun.

1452
01:07:29,080 --> 01:07:31,320
Speaker 3: I mean, I didn't love the thousand yesterday. It was

1453
01:07:31,360 --> 01:07:32,880
Speaker 3: just like a time trial. I mean, you had one

1454
01:07:32,960 --> 01:07:35,280
Speaker 3: other guy with you, But yeah, I like when you

1455
01:07:35,360 --> 01:07:36,960
Speaker 3: get multiple.

1456
01:07:36,640 --> 01:07:39,120
Speaker 1: There's usually five guys on the track at the same time.

1457
01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:42,800
Speaker 3: And again that Jordan Stoles from Wisconsin, that dude is unbelieved.

1458
01:07:42,840 --> 01:07:44,919
Speaker 3: That final lap was incredible. It sounds like he could

1459
01:07:44,960 --> 01:07:47,240
Speaker 3: be the star of the you know this portion, I

1460
01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:48,280
Speaker 3: guess of the Winter Olympics.

1461
01:07:48,440 --> 01:07:51,000
Speaker 1: All right, TAYTONA five hundred qualifying is in the books.

1462
01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:53,560
Speaker 1: Kyle Busch wins the poll. He is looking for his

1463
01:07:53,640 --> 01:07:55,960
Speaker 1: first five hundred win in his twenty first try. They've

1464
01:07:56,000 --> 01:07:59,160
Speaker 1: got twin races tonight. Still two spots up for grabs

1465
01:07:59,200 --> 01:08:02,400
Speaker 1: in the field in that one. Also, the Team USA

1466
01:08:02,480 --> 01:08:06,240
Speaker 1: Women's World Cup roster has been announced for their qualifying

1467
01:08:07,120 --> 01:08:10,520
Speaker 1: tournament and San Juan, Puerto Rico next month. Caitlin Clark

1468
01:08:10,560 --> 01:08:12,840
Speaker 1: of Leah Boston or two of the names on that list,

1469
01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:15,240
Speaker 1: and anything else you guys want to throw in before

1470
01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:16,840
Speaker 1: we go to break and get to Joeli ericson.

1471
01:08:16,560 --> 01:08:19,240
Speaker 2: Real quick Stephanie White will also be an assistant on

1472
01:08:19,360 --> 01:08:22,000
Speaker 2: that team for Team USA, So you have three representatives

1473
01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:22,840
Speaker 2: from the Indiana Fever.

1474
01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:25,320
Speaker 1: I did want to point out one other thing. Last

1475
01:08:25,400 --> 01:08:28,240
Speaker 1: night Clippers beat the Rockets one oh five to one

1476
01:08:28,320 --> 01:08:32,200
Speaker 1: oh two, and in that game, Benedict Mathern off the bench,

1477
01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:35,400
Speaker 1: scored sixteen points, was nine of ten from the free

1478
01:08:35,439 --> 01:08:38,600
Speaker 1: throw line, had three steals, a block shot, and was

1479
01:08:38,680 --> 01:08:41,360
Speaker 1: plus six. As they start to integrate him into their

1480
01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:42,160
Speaker 1: lineup there.

1481
01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:44,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's getting little more comfortable. I think he was

1482
01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:46,040
Speaker 2: nine of ten from the free throw line. So that

1483
01:08:46,160 --> 01:08:47,559
Speaker 2: is typical Benedict Mather in fashion.

1484
01:08:47,640 --> 01:08:49,640
Speaker 1: Right now, right. Joeli Ericson joins us. Next we'll talk

1485

Speaker 1: football and the Colts as we continue ninety three five one.

01:09:44,080 --> 01:09:45,400
Speaker 1: and catchers have reported as well.

1500
01:09:46,400 --> 01:09:50,040
Speaker 5: I have noticed the pictures and catchers have reported. Pat

1501
01:09:50,160 --> 01:09:54,240
Speaker 5: Murphy spoke yesterday, and he spoke before. I gotta be honest,

1502
01:09:54,280 --> 01:09:56,760
Speaker 5: though I'm a little I'm a little thrown off by

1503
01:09:56,840 --> 01:10:01,479
Speaker 5: something I heard on a TV broadcast watching basketball last night.

1504
01:10:01,560 --> 01:10:04,120
Speaker 5: I flipped over to them. I flipped over for the

1505
01:10:04,160 --> 01:10:06,799
Speaker 5: Missouri Texas A and M game. Big win for my Tigers.

1506
01:10:06,840 --> 01:10:10,320
Speaker 5: They needed that one. After the Pacers game was done

1507
01:10:11,160 --> 01:10:15,840
Speaker 5: and the color analyst where they were talking the play

1508
01:10:15,880 --> 01:10:18,559
Speaker 5: by play guy said something about Reggie Miller drawing files,

1509
01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:22,439
Speaker 5: and the color analyst said, Reggie's before my time, and

1510
01:10:22,560 --> 01:10:24,960
Speaker 5: I'm I'm having an existential crisis this morning.

1511
01:10:27,760 --> 01:10:29,680
Speaker 1: Welcome to the club, Joel. I thought you and I

1512
01:10:29,760 --> 01:10:30,120
Speaker 1: can talk.

1513
01:10:30,160 --> 01:10:32,120
Speaker 3: I thought you han't a crisis for being asked to

1514
01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:33,640
Speaker 3: cover that Pacers game last night.

1515
01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:38,240
Speaker 5: I that was that was That was a little bit

1516
01:10:38,280 --> 01:10:40,080
Speaker 5: of a It was a little bit of a crisis.

1517
01:10:40,160 --> 01:10:43,639
Speaker 5: I had to brush up on my on my two

1518
01:10:43,680 --> 01:10:46,880
Speaker 5: AA guys real fast before that one started. But man,

1519
01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:50,240
Speaker 5: I'm not ready for for Reggie Miller being before anybody's time.

1520
01:10:50,320 --> 01:10:50,519
Speaker 9: I'm not.

1521
01:10:50,920 --> 01:10:55,040
Speaker 3: Jason Richardson's son is in the dunk contest Saturday night, Joel.

1522
01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:57,639
Speaker 3: If you want to continue down this path, and Tiger

1523
01:10:57,680 --> 01:11:01,080
Speaker 3: Woods is committed, just committed to college real quick here,

1524
01:11:01,120 --> 01:11:03,840
Speaker 3: I'll jump in, Joel so at my barber shop that

1525
01:11:03,960 --> 01:11:04,960
Speaker 3: I go to. They have a.

1526
01:11:05,560 --> 01:11:08,920
Speaker 2: Poster in one of the corners and it's a Reggie

1527
01:11:08,960 --> 01:11:11,760
Speaker 2: Miller and has all his rankings of like where he

1528
01:11:12,040 --> 01:11:14,840
Speaker 2: was in three point made shots and free throw percentage

1529
01:11:14,960 --> 01:11:18,680
Speaker 2: and all these things. And the posters old because it

1530
01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:20,760
Speaker 2: says he's still first in three pointers and.

1531
01:11:20,800 --> 01:11:22,160
Speaker 3: I want to say he might be like six or

1532
01:11:22,240 --> 01:11:22,760
Speaker 3: seventh now.

1533
01:11:23,240 --> 01:11:24,800
Speaker 2: And every time I look at it, I'm like, wow,

1534
01:11:24,880 --> 01:11:27,720
Speaker 2: the world is changing, Like this is nothing everything that

1535
01:11:27,840 --> 01:11:28,559
Speaker 2: was right with the world.

1536
01:11:28,720 --> 01:11:30,360
Speaker 3: I mean, Reggie Miller. You think of him.

1537
01:11:30,680 --> 01:11:33,320
Speaker 2: He was a three point goat for so long, and

1538
01:11:33,400 --> 01:11:35,120
Speaker 2: now I think James Hard has any more threes than him,

1539
01:11:35,280 --> 01:11:37,080
Speaker 2: Buddy Healed, I think I'm be on pace to pass him.

1540
01:11:37,400 --> 01:11:37,880
Speaker 3: That's crazy.

1541
01:11:38,040 --> 01:11:38,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that's.

1542
01:11:38,880 --> 01:11:42,599
Speaker 5: Reality changing, the changing game, and the numbers the changing game.

1543
01:11:42,640 --> 01:11:43,720
Speaker 6: The numbers always get me.

1544
01:11:43,800 --> 01:11:48,000
Speaker 5: But but but somebody who's on TV talking about basketball.

1545
01:11:48,040 --> 01:11:51,040
Speaker 5: Granted it's King, it's King mc clur he's only twenty nine.

1546
01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:54,000
Speaker 4: Like I had to look all this shop.

1547
01:11:53,800 --> 01:11:57,400
Speaker 5: After it, but not not knowing Reggie Miller at all.

1548
01:11:59,240 --> 01:12:01,760
Speaker 5: James James, you know, Reggie Miller, You're not that much

1549
01:12:01,800 --> 01:12:02,639
Speaker 5: older than twenty nine.

1550
01:12:02,760 --> 01:12:05,360
Speaker 2: Hey, But in fairness, I didn't watch him live very soon,

1551
01:12:05,560 --> 01:12:08,320
Speaker 2: not just the basketball guru. So I'll leave it at

1552
01:12:08,400 --> 01:12:11,439
Speaker 2: that to pivot to more Colts related things, which is

1553
01:12:11,520 --> 01:12:13,559
Speaker 2: what you cover on a more day to day basis.

1554
01:12:13,800 --> 01:12:14,080
Speaker 1: Joel.

1555
01:12:14,840 --> 01:12:17,200
Speaker 2: So, we're a few weeks out from the NFL Draft combine.

1556
01:12:17,760 --> 01:12:20,439
Speaker 2: If I had to tell you, okay, your first pick

1557
01:12:20,520 --> 01:12:22,559
Speaker 2: this year is not in the first round, second round,

1558
01:12:22,600 --> 01:12:26,439
Speaker 2: it's number forty seven, I believe right now, what position

1559
01:12:26,920 --> 01:12:28,599
Speaker 2: are you taking with that pick?

1560
01:12:30,120 --> 01:12:34,360
Speaker 5: If I'm going straight need, you know with this Colts team,

1561
01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:36,760
Speaker 5: it's got to be a defensive end, I think. But

1562
01:12:36,920 --> 01:12:40,200
Speaker 5: the problem is forty seven. I think Colts fans now

1563
01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:43,880
Speaker 5: know after the last nine years or so that getting

1564
01:12:44,040 --> 01:12:48,479
Speaker 5: defensive ends in the second round doesn't always pan out

1565
01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:51,479
Speaker 5: the way you'd like in terms of in terms of

1566
01:12:51,560 --> 01:12:54,360
Speaker 5: that stuff. So I don't think you can go necessarily

1567
01:12:54,439 --> 01:12:58,080
Speaker 5: straight need with it. You think you'd obviously go whoever

1568
01:12:58,160 --> 01:13:00,800
Speaker 5: you think is the best player available. Want that player

1569
01:13:00,880 --> 01:13:04,640
Speaker 5: to be somewhere on defense. He wanted that player to

1570
01:13:04,680 --> 01:13:07,800
Speaker 5: be somewhere on defense. But it's not necessarily a type

1571
01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:09,760
Speaker 5: of spot where you normally think, okay, this is where

1572
01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:13,840
Speaker 5: I get a difference making defensive end. Those picks usually

1573
01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:15,560
Speaker 5: come from one to about.

1574
01:13:15,360 --> 01:13:16,000
Speaker 1: Twelve or so.

1575
01:13:17,120 --> 01:13:19,400
Speaker 3: Jolly Erickson from The Star with us here talking a

1576
01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:21,120
Speaker 3: little Colts a little bit everything. I guess on this

1577
01:13:21,400 --> 01:13:25,280
Speaker 3: Wednesday or Thursday morning, I should say, any chance you'd

1578
01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:27,400
Speaker 3: think franchise tag for Daniel Jones.

1579
01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:33,120
Speaker 5: I think what's more likely is that Jones signs in

1580
01:13:33,320 --> 01:13:35,720
Speaker 5: Indy and then maybe we see a franchise tag on

1581
01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:42,000
Speaker 5: Alec Pierce. It just seemed when we left and everything

1582
01:13:42,040 --> 01:13:44,719
Speaker 5: we've heard since then, but really really that Chris Ballard

1583
01:13:44,760 --> 01:13:48,320
Speaker 5: press conference kind of confirmed what we what we've been

1584
01:13:48,400 --> 01:13:50,360
Speaker 5: hearing all along was that this team was all.

1585
01:13:50,280 --> 01:13:51,240
Speaker 1: In on Daniel Jones.

1586
01:13:51,320 --> 01:13:54,120
Speaker 5: I think they'll they'll kind of do whatever it takes

1587
01:13:54,200 --> 01:13:57,800
Speaker 5: to make sure that he doesn't get to the market. So,

1588
01:13:58,240 --> 01:14:00,040
Speaker 5: you know, without without having been to the comb and

1589
01:14:00,160 --> 01:14:02,800
Speaker 5: yet got a chance to talk to a bunch of people,

1590
01:14:03,120 --> 01:14:06,920
Speaker 5: I would guess that that's getting him in the fold

1591
01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:10,800
Speaker 5: early is priority ones that you can then open your

1592
01:14:10,840 --> 01:14:12,160
Speaker 5: options for what you do with peers.

1593
01:14:12,640 --> 01:14:14,479
Speaker 1: Joel a ericson joining us from the Indie Star. We're

1594
01:14:14,520 --> 01:14:19,360
Speaker 1: talking Colts football. They announced the list of Combine invitees yesterday,

1595
01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:22,360
Speaker 1: a ton of Indiana and some Notre Dame guys on

1596
01:14:22,439 --> 01:14:25,600
Speaker 1: there anybody from Indiana that you could see fitting with

1597
01:14:25,720 --> 01:14:27,759
Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts down the line in the draft.

1598
01:14:29,040 --> 01:14:29,160
Speaker 9: Uh?

1599
01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:31,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean some of it, some of those guys.

1600
01:14:31,920 --> 01:14:36,360
Speaker 5: It depends on in terms of, like do the Colts

1601
01:14:36,439 --> 01:14:39,879
Speaker 5: make a move away from a veteran you know, D'Angelo

1602
01:14:39,960 --> 01:14:43,040
Speaker 5: pond didn't like the biggest guy, but he does feel

1603
01:14:43,080 --> 01:14:44,400
Speaker 5: like the kind of guy that you could use as

1604
01:14:44,400 --> 01:14:47,240
Speaker 5: a nickel in the NFL and use very very well

1605
01:14:47,360 --> 01:14:49,000
Speaker 5: and devastatingly as a nickel.

1606
01:14:49,439 --> 01:14:51,360
Speaker 1: If they were going to move away from.

1607
01:14:53,400 --> 01:14:56,000
Speaker 5: You know, if they moved away from Michael Pittman, do

1608
01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:58,000
Speaker 5: you do you look at one of the wide receivers

1609
01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:02,720
Speaker 5: there as a replacement for that. I think those guys

1610
01:15:02,800 --> 01:15:06,120
Speaker 5: were the ones that jumped to mind first in terms

1611
01:15:06,200 --> 01:15:10,240
Speaker 5: of in terms of Indiana players coming to coming to

1612
01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:14,120
Speaker 5: the Colts that it's usually you think of in the NFL.

1613
01:15:14,160 --> 01:15:17,000
Speaker 5: You don't think of the local guy ending up though, uh,

1614
01:15:17,200 --> 01:15:19,479
Speaker 5: in the in the team with the team next door,

1615
01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:21,200
Speaker 5: because it just doesn't seem to work out like that.

1616
01:15:21,600 --> 01:15:24,760
Speaker 1: That's just when was the last time, like ever Indiana's

1617
01:15:24,760 --> 01:15:27,200
Speaker 1: got guys Like the SEC teams have guys and they're

1618
01:15:27,280 --> 01:15:28,960
Speaker 1: legitimate guys, and there are many of them.

1619
01:15:29,960 --> 01:15:31,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know, normally when you go to the combine,

1620
01:15:31,880 --> 01:15:34,680
Speaker 5: you're talking about you know one or you know, I

1621
01:15:34,920 --> 01:15:38,080
Speaker 5: see I see Zach Osterman on the combine floor like

1622
01:15:38,160 --> 01:15:40,679
Speaker 5: one day. But it seems like those guys are gonna

1623
01:15:40,720 --> 01:15:42,680
Speaker 5: have to be up here doing quite a bit more.

1624
01:15:42,680 --> 01:15:44,519
Speaker 5: I will say this was a big storyline when I

1625
01:15:44,640 --> 01:15:46,200
Speaker 5: lived in when I covered the Saints and I lived

1626
01:15:46,200 --> 01:15:49,559
Speaker 5: in New Orleans because LSU that you know, the Saints row,

1627
01:15:49,640 --> 01:15:52,240
Speaker 5: they were always getting killed for not drafting LSU guys,

1628
01:15:53,320 --> 01:15:55,599
Speaker 5: and their point was it was always, well a lot

1629
01:15:55,600 --> 01:15:56,759
Speaker 5: of times ls you guys.

1630
01:15:56,560 --> 01:15:58,280
Speaker 1: Are gone before we have a chance to pick.

1631
01:15:58,439 --> 01:16:01,240
Speaker 5: So that, uh, that that could come into play again

1632
01:16:01,320 --> 01:16:02,120
Speaker 5: this this April.

1633
01:16:02,600 --> 01:16:07,920
Speaker 3: Joel, You're smart, dude. You got any good tanking correction

1634
01:16:08,080 --> 01:16:09,040
Speaker 3: ideas for the NBA?

1635
01:16:12,720 --> 01:16:16,840
Speaker 5: I uh I, I don't know if I have a

1636
01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:19,920
Speaker 5: good one in terms of because one of the other

1637
01:16:20,000 --> 01:16:22,200
Speaker 5: things that that stuck out to me is that the

1638
01:16:23,560 --> 01:16:28,280
Speaker 5: you have even like that. I watched Spurs Thunder recently,

1639
01:16:28,479 --> 01:16:30,800
Speaker 5: I watched Spurs Lakers where that they're those those teams

1640
01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:33,040
Speaker 5: are in the playoffs and they're not playing anybody on

1641
01:16:33,120 --> 01:16:35,360
Speaker 5: a given night, and I don't know if that's going on.

1642
01:16:36,120 --> 01:16:39,559
Speaker 5: How you keep you know, a team like the Pacers

1643
01:16:39,640 --> 01:16:41,439
Speaker 5: from not playing anybody, or a team like the Nets

1644
01:16:41,479 --> 01:16:47,560
Speaker 5: from not playing their starters. It it seems like the

1645
01:16:47,640 --> 01:16:51,320
Speaker 5: lottery should take some of that out. But then there's

1646
01:16:51,320 --> 01:16:52,920
Speaker 5: also the piece of it where you know, I've been

1647
01:16:52,920 --> 01:16:56,680
Speaker 5: seeing the stats about, you know, the team that with

1648
01:16:56,760 --> 01:16:58,680
Speaker 5: the worst record hasn't gotten the number one pick in

1649
01:16:58,760 --> 01:16:59,960
Speaker 5: like five years or something like.

1650
01:17:00,160 --> 01:17:00,680
Speaker 9: That, and.

1651
01:17:02,240 --> 01:17:06,479
Speaker 5: I don't know it is the the the one I

1652
01:17:06,600 --> 01:17:08,800
Speaker 5: saw was what I saw somebody came up with was

1653
01:17:09,760 --> 01:17:12,760
Speaker 5: do it in reverse order. The team with the the

1654
01:17:12,960 --> 01:17:15,800
Speaker 5: best record of those teams get gets the first pick.

1655
01:17:15,880 --> 01:17:17,920
Speaker 5: But that's not that's not fair either, because then you

1656
01:17:18,000 --> 01:17:20,760
Speaker 5: get teams that maybe had like one injury and should

1657
01:17:20,800 --> 01:17:22,240
Speaker 5: be a playoff team getting a first pick.

1658
01:17:23,280 --> 01:17:25,599
Speaker 2: I mean that would literally probably be the Pacers right now,

1659
01:17:25,880 --> 01:17:29,000
Speaker 2: if I'm being honest, if Sires Halliburn's healthy there and

1660
01:17:29,160 --> 01:17:32,040
Speaker 2: their record isn't what it is. So it's very interesting concept,

1661
01:17:32,120 --> 01:17:35,200
Speaker 2: to say the least. Joel and I enjoyed seeing some

1662
01:17:35,280 --> 01:17:37,720
Speaker 2: of your tweets and updates. I did see that you

1663
01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:39,639
Speaker 2: had a chance to type up some of the comments

1664
01:17:39,680 --> 01:17:42,400
Speaker 2: from Chad ken and as well about the addition of

1665
01:17:43,120 --> 01:17:45,719
Speaker 2: eats zubats. So you got the full I feel like experience,

1666
01:17:45,760 --> 01:17:47,519
Speaker 2: even though you're probably sitting at home, but you got

1667
01:17:47,560 --> 01:17:50,160
Speaker 2: a little news in there. You got a close game there.

1668
01:17:50,600 --> 01:17:52,720
Speaker 2: You know how it feel it be covering. I guess

1669
01:17:52,840 --> 01:17:54,840
Speaker 2: a later a later start, in the middle of the week.

1670
01:17:55,040 --> 01:17:56,160
Speaker 2: I gave it up, brother, and I don't know if

1671
01:17:56,160 --> 01:17:56,760
Speaker 2: I ever go back.

1672
01:17:58,560 --> 01:18:03,360
Speaker 5: I I uh, I like moon lighting on pacers whatever,

1673
01:18:03,439 --> 01:18:06,360
Speaker 5: Dustin whenever Dustin needs a help. I mean you, James,

1674
01:18:06,400 --> 01:18:08,320
Speaker 5: you know I'm not I'm not as big an NBA

1675
01:18:08,400 --> 01:18:09,720
Speaker 5: guy as you are, but I am an I am

1676
01:18:09,760 --> 01:18:10,439
Speaker 5: an NBA guy.

1677
01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:14,080
Speaker 1: It's fun. It's fun to jump on there and uh

1678
01:18:14,680 --> 01:18:16,240
Speaker 1: and get a get a good look at the pacers.

1679
01:18:16,280 --> 01:18:19,600
Speaker 5: I thought what beganon said about knowing that the championship

1680
01:18:19,640 --> 01:18:22,920
Speaker 5: window closed sometimes closes quicker than you expect was a

1681
01:18:23,000 --> 01:18:26,280
Speaker 5: really interesting thing. And that's one of those things that

1682
01:18:26,680 --> 01:18:29,040
Speaker 5: really anything I write. I kind of wonder if Dustin

1683
01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:30,880
Speaker 5: would go, oh, you know, that's old news. But I

1684
01:18:30,960 --> 01:18:33,760
Speaker 5: thought that was an interesting quote in terms of I

1685
01:18:33,840 --> 01:18:36,439
Speaker 5: thought that was an interesting quote in terms of where

1686
01:18:36,479 --> 01:18:39,680
Speaker 5: the pacers thinking is that you know, you you've you

1687
01:18:39,800 --> 01:18:43,800
Speaker 5: can't expect this this core to be in championship contention forever,

1688
01:18:43,960 --> 01:18:45,960
Speaker 5: just because that's just not how it always works out

1689
01:18:45,960 --> 01:18:46,360
Speaker 5: in the NBA.

1690
01:18:46,520 --> 01:18:48,200
Speaker 2: Well, I got one more before we let you go,

1691
01:18:48,400 --> 01:18:50,360
Speaker 2: Joel So and I got to see in this tweet,

1692
01:18:50,439 --> 01:18:52,120
Speaker 2: so I think you put out there, Hey, I'm filling

1693
01:18:52,200 --> 01:18:54,880
Speaker 2: in for Dustin. He's resting the second nut of a

1694
01:18:54,960 --> 01:18:56,840
Speaker 2: back to back. I'll loas some of the stars of

1695
01:18:57,320 --> 01:18:59,600
Speaker 2: the Pacers. And then I believe Scott Horner chimed in

1696
01:18:59,640 --> 01:19:01,920
Speaker 2: and was like, was Dustin tanking? So have you got

1697
01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:04,160
Speaker 2: information on that? So we'll be able to the lead

1698
01:19:04,240 --> 01:19:06,840
Speaker 2: be investigating Dustin de pierrek Uh.

1699
01:19:06,920 --> 01:19:07,960
Speaker 4: Well, here's here's the.

1700
01:19:08,000 --> 01:19:13,519
Speaker 5: Thing, though, Dustin Dustin. You know in this in this scenario,

1701
01:19:13,640 --> 01:19:17,320
Speaker 5: Dustin's a player. So really it's that Newell that I

1702
01:19:17,360 --> 01:19:19,320
Speaker 5: think that has to be investigated.

1703
01:19:18,840 --> 01:19:20,320
Speaker 3: Right, Editor Andy Starr?

1704
01:19:20,360 --> 01:19:22,439
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, you know I always got a little

1705
01:19:22,439 --> 01:19:24,880
Speaker 2: smoke for for nat out there, the former boss.

1706
01:19:26,439 --> 01:19:29,799
Speaker 5: Does that have to be investigated for tanking?

1707
01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:31,240
Speaker 4: For putting a football.

1708
01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:32,479
Speaker 5: Guy out there on a basketball night?

1709
01:19:32,560 --> 01:19:36,960
Speaker 1: That's the real question. Ah, The real question is your

1710
01:19:37,479 --> 01:19:40,640
Speaker 1: your Brewers or Mark's Cubs are our Reds at the

1711
01:19:40,680 --> 01:19:41,880
Speaker 1: end of the year. That's the question.

1712
01:19:42,840 --> 01:19:43,719
Speaker 3: I don't get him started.

1713
01:19:44,479 --> 01:19:45,599
Speaker 1: It's it's a good one.

1714
01:19:45,920 --> 01:19:48,200
Speaker 3: It's a good one. Where's where's the I is?

1715
01:19:48,600 --> 01:19:50,040
Speaker 5: How's how's Mark Dychton feeling?

1716
01:19:50,120 --> 01:19:50,960
Speaker 1: Is Mark Dydon feeling?

1717
01:19:51,040 --> 01:19:51,120
Speaker 9: Oh?

1718
01:19:51,160 --> 01:19:54,360
Speaker 1: He was calling for championship twenty minutes ago. I'm feeling Condon.

1719
01:19:54,400 --> 01:19:56,960
Speaker 6: I mean, the addition of Alex Bregman made me feel better.

1720
01:19:57,120 --> 01:20:00,320
Speaker 6: I think they'll get a solid rotation with the once

1721
01:20:00,439 --> 01:20:03,040
Speaker 6: Justin Steel fully returns and all that stuff. So I'm

1722
01:20:03,040 --> 01:20:03,800
Speaker 6: feeling pretty good.

1723
01:20:05,640 --> 01:20:05,760
Speaker 9: Uh.

1724
01:20:06,120 --> 01:20:08,840
Speaker 5: And the Reds guys, the Reds guys, what do we got?

1725
01:20:09,200 --> 01:20:10,519
Speaker 3: What were we thinking on the red Kevin?

1726
01:20:10,600 --> 01:20:12,680
Speaker 1: Kevin and I were talking this is the year for

1727
01:20:12,760 --> 01:20:17,280
Speaker 1: World Series, building off that playoff push and surprise appearance

1728
01:20:17,280 --> 01:20:18,080
Speaker 1: in the postseason like.

1729
01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:20,880
Speaker 3: Now, but here come the Red Legs. How were you

1730
01:20:21,040 --> 01:20:21,840
Speaker 3: murmuring back there?

1731
01:20:22,560 --> 01:20:24,320
Speaker 6: You were saying they're going to win it?

1732
01:20:24,400 --> 01:20:25,200
Speaker 1: All right?

1733
01:20:25,360 --> 01:20:27,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, I don't think I minced words.

1734
01:20:27,520 --> 01:20:29,240
Speaker 6: Water smells like vodka if you ask me.

1735
01:20:29,560 --> 01:20:32,080
Speaker 1: All right, So I saw one projection from a bunch

1736
01:20:32,120 --> 01:20:36,240
Speaker 1: of baseball analysts that said Cubs eighty eight wins, Brewers

1737
01:20:36,280 --> 01:20:39,240
Speaker 1: eighty seven Cubs are in the red seventy eighty three,

1738
01:20:39,479 --> 01:20:43,280
Speaker 1: so eighty eight eighty seven eighty three. That what projection

1739
01:20:43,520 --> 01:20:47,559
Speaker 1: was that that came from the USA today your employer.

1740
01:20:48,439 --> 01:20:51,800
Speaker 5: Oh, the projection system is usually hate Milwaukee and.

1741
01:20:51,840 --> 01:20:54,439
Speaker 1: It makes well, this is a five person panel, so

1742
01:20:55,360 --> 01:20:55,960
Speaker 1: oh okay.

1743
01:20:56,120 --> 01:20:58,840
Speaker 4: Well, so the reason I saw this the other day

1744
01:20:59,000 --> 01:20:59,400
Speaker 4: I just this.

1745
01:21:00,000 --> 01:21:02,280
Speaker 5: I'll give you guys a window into my how how

1746
01:21:02,360 --> 01:21:03,320
Speaker 5: bad of a nerd I am?

1747
01:21:05,640 --> 01:21:06,040
Speaker 4: I thought?

1748
01:21:06,479 --> 01:21:10,080
Speaker 5: From Pakoda, which obviously does some good projecting for baseball,

1749
01:21:10,120 --> 01:21:12,719
Speaker 5: they were saying that teams that the small market teams

1750
01:21:12,760 --> 01:21:16,240
Speaker 5: that use younger players, it's harder to project them because

1751
01:21:16,280 --> 01:21:21,360
Speaker 5: those projections are based on track record essentially, and guys

1752
01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:23,600
Speaker 5: who are younger, who are just called up don't have

1753
01:21:23,760 --> 01:21:25,519
Speaker 5: a track record in the major So it's much easier

1754
01:21:25,560 --> 01:21:27,960
Speaker 5: to project a team like the Phillies than it is

1755
01:21:28,000 --> 01:21:30,040
Speaker 5: a team like the Brewers, because I think Pakoda has

1756
01:21:30,080 --> 01:21:33,360
Speaker 5: them at eighty one wins or something like that. But

1757
01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:36,080
Speaker 5: that's that's that's kind of that's kind of far for

1758
01:21:36,160 --> 01:21:39,760
Speaker 5: the course, the the all of zips, all of those

1759
01:21:40,040 --> 01:21:42,960
Speaker 5: all of the analytical things always have them low. And

1760
01:21:43,080 --> 01:21:44,960
Speaker 5: that that makes sense to me that it's because of

1761
01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:45,800
Speaker 5: the young guys.

1762
01:21:46,280 --> 01:21:49,680
Speaker 1: Shockingly, they all think the Dodgers are going to win

1763
01:21:49,760 --> 01:21:51,439
Speaker 1: ninety eight games. I don't know how that acts.

1764
01:21:51,479 --> 01:21:55,120
Speaker 3: Joel sounded like me describing high school recruiting in golf yesterday.

1765
01:21:55,800 --> 01:21:58,240
Speaker 1: All right, I will love you, Joel. I will leave

1766
01:21:58,240 --> 01:21:59,880
Speaker 1: you to your day. Thanks for spending time with us.

1767
01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:00,600
Speaker 1: We appreciate it.

1768
01:22:01,240 --> 01:22:01,680
Speaker 4: You bet well.

1769
01:22:01,720 --> 01:22:04,160
Speaker 1: I think you got Joey ericson on the pay listen

1770
01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:05,919
Speaker 1: Liquors hotline.

1771
01:22:06,040 --> 01:22:06,719
Speaker 3: He's our nerd.

1772
01:22:07,560 --> 01:22:08,160
Speaker 1: We love him.

1773
01:22:08,880 --> 01:22:09,040
Speaker 11: I do.

1774
01:22:09,200 --> 01:22:10,439
Speaker 1: I've nerd out in baseball with him.

1775
01:22:10,479 --> 01:22:12,680
Speaker 2: Anyhow, Joel is always the man to follow when you're

1776
01:22:12,720 --> 01:22:14,400
Speaker 2: on the road. He knows the restaurants.

1777
01:22:14,439 --> 01:22:16,240
Speaker 3: He gets me right. He's opened up my palette a

1778
01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:19,160
Speaker 3: little bit, grades his kids eating dinner off of the

1779
01:22:19,240 --> 01:22:20,000
Speaker 3: war metric.

1780
01:22:20,760 --> 01:22:22,320
Speaker 1: I know we're late, Mark, but is it just me?

1781
01:22:22,479 --> 01:22:24,880
Speaker 1: The Dodgers projected at ninety eight wins. That feels low,

1782
01:22:24,960 --> 01:22:25,280
Speaker 1: doesn't it.

1783
01:22:25,400 --> 01:22:27,559
Speaker 6: I'm shocked they only spent two billion dollars so far.

1784
01:22:27,640 --> 01:22:29,120
Speaker 1: Like I feel like they should win one hundred and

1785
01:22:29,160 --> 01:22:30,120
Speaker 1: five hundred and ten games.

1786
01:22:30,120 --> 01:22:33,000
Speaker 3: Shouldn't They n sixty two and it's a failure.

1787
01:22:33,160 --> 01:22:35,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, we'll wrap up the hour. We get

1788
01:22:35,840 --> 01:22:38,519
Speaker 1: ready to go to Scott Agnes at nine o'clock talking pacers,

1789
01:22:38,800 --> 01:22:40,559
Speaker 1: tanking and all that kind of stuff. It's ninety three

1790
01:22:40,600 --> 01:22:41,880
Speaker 1: five and one seven five the fan.

1791
01:22:44,600 --> 01:22:47,200
Speaker 12: If he beat my name from the candle with his family,

1792
01:22:49,720 --> 01:22:55,240
Speaker 12: my name so direct clear, Hayes, get we play us

1793
01:22:55,360 --> 01:22:56,160
Speaker 12: much play us.

1794
01:22:56,160 --> 01:22:59,120
Speaker 10: That we know you're listening to a san morning show

1795
01:22:59,400 --> 01:23:01,280
Speaker 10: on sports radio Nuttle three.

1796
01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:01,519
Speaker 7: Five and.

1797
01:23:07,760 --> 01:23:10,280
Speaker 1: Cruising through the NBA season, which has reached the All

1798
01:23:10,360 --> 01:23:12,960
Speaker 1: Star break. We got a lot of great college basketball

1799
01:23:13,320 --> 01:23:14,840
Speaker 1: coming up, and we've been talking about some of it.

1800
01:23:14,960 --> 01:23:17,760
Speaker 1: The Butler Utah game, Yukon game last night. We're also

1801
01:23:17,800 --> 01:23:20,240
Speaker 1: in the middle of the Olympics right now. I was

1802
01:23:20,400 --> 01:23:22,679
Speaker 1: watching hockey yesterday because you know, I'm a hockey nerd,

1803
01:23:22,760 --> 01:23:26,960
Speaker 1: and I thought Italy, who's basically ranked maybe eleventh or

1804
01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:29,680
Speaker 1: twelfth out of the twelve teams, gave one of the

1805
01:23:29,720 --> 01:23:31,600
Speaker 1: best team Sweden, a real run for their money for

1806
01:23:31,680 --> 01:23:33,800
Speaker 1: a while before the Swedes kind of put the hammer

1807
01:23:33,880 --> 01:23:37,040
Speaker 1: down late. Looking forward to that team USA plays later

1808
01:23:37,120 --> 01:23:40,519
Speaker 1: on today, just after three o'clock against Latvia, I can

1809
01:23:40,600 --> 01:23:42,559
Speaker 1: honestly say, Kevin, it's the first time I'm really looking

1810
01:23:42,600 --> 01:23:46,320
Speaker 1: forward to watching hockey game involving the Latvian national team,

1811
01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:49,120
Speaker 1: just because I want to see Team USA and we

1812
01:23:49,160 --> 01:23:52,479
Speaker 1: should roll, right, we should roll in that one. I

1813
01:23:52,520 --> 01:23:54,479
Speaker 1: would imagine that that would be a game that they

1814
01:23:54,800 --> 01:23:58,280
Speaker 1: definitely need to win. They've got that going on. Short

1815
01:23:58,360 --> 01:24:01,479
Speaker 1: track speed skating is always on TV and James, you

1816
01:24:01,479 --> 01:24:04,120
Speaker 1: should check this out because it's basically five guys or

1817
01:24:04,160 --> 01:24:09,320
Speaker 1: five women and it's a short track. Think the outside

1818
01:24:09,400 --> 01:24:12,360
Speaker 1: of a hockey rink is where they're going. There's cones

1819
01:24:12,439 --> 01:24:14,559
Speaker 1: set up for them, and they have to make these turns,

1820
01:24:14,600 --> 01:24:16,720
Speaker 1: and the turns are so tight. They're usually putting a

1821
01:24:16,840 --> 01:24:19,320
Speaker 1: hand down on the corners and they're all going for

1822
01:24:19,400 --> 01:24:23,040
Speaker 1: the same line. In the last lap or two, some crazy,

1823
01:24:23,240 --> 01:24:25,960
Speaker 1: crazy things can happen. I saw one of my favorite

1824
01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:27,720
Speaker 1: things I've ever seen in an Olympic I forget who

1825
01:24:27,800 --> 01:24:30,680
Speaker 1: it was, but there was a skater who early in

1826
01:24:30,760 --> 01:24:33,519
Speaker 1: the race, it was a longer race. Early in the race,

1827
01:24:33,560 --> 01:24:36,479
Speaker 1: he lapped the field and they forgot about it and

1828
01:24:36,600 --> 01:24:38,040
Speaker 1: he just hung out at the back of the pack

1829
01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:40,000
Speaker 1: for the rest of the race. Ended up winning the

1830
01:24:40,120 --> 01:24:42,200
Speaker 1: gold medal from the back of the back that still

1831
01:24:42,240 --> 01:24:42,920
Speaker 1: had a lap to go.

1832
01:24:43,120 --> 01:24:45,240
Speaker 3: Sounds like Alex hellow last year in ndycar.

1833
01:24:46,040 --> 01:24:49,160
Speaker 1: So I enjoy this. And you know, my wife had

1834
01:24:49,200 --> 01:24:53,320
Speaker 1: me watching Ice Dancing yesterday, which she kept saying, watch

1835
01:24:53,439 --> 01:24:54,280
Speaker 1: watch this, and I was.

1836
01:24:54,280 --> 01:24:56,880
Speaker 3: Like, Okay, I was you know, James, I didn't want

1837
01:24:56,920 --> 01:24:58,600
Speaker 3: to throw one Colts question your way, I o're and

1838
01:24:58,680 --> 01:25:01,320
Speaker 3: talks Scott Agnes some pace here. On the other side,

1839
01:25:01,640 --> 01:25:03,439
Speaker 3: I have heard from some people. I don't act like

1840
01:25:03,520 --> 01:25:05,439
Speaker 3: it's like a huge majority, but some people have said

1841
01:25:06,280 --> 01:25:12,759
Speaker 3: the Colts need to keep Anthony Richardson given Daniel Jones's

1842
01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:17,280
Speaker 3: injury history. Yeah, given Daniel Jones coming off a torn achilles.

1843
01:25:17,360 --> 01:25:20,280
Speaker 3: Just remind everybody it's a ten point eight million dollar

1844
01:25:20,400 --> 01:25:23,679
Speaker 3: cap hit for Anthony Richardson here in his fourth NFL season.

1845
01:25:24,680 --> 01:25:28,519
Speaker 3: Do you think that is a thought the Colts have

1846
01:25:28,680 --> 01:25:35,120
Speaker 3: debated much internally keeping him given Jones's injury history.

1847
01:25:36,080 --> 01:25:41,840
Speaker 2: Not necessarily no, And I think that's because, Ay, he

1848
01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:44,479
Speaker 2: still has a lot of injury history and you have

1849
01:25:44,600 --> 01:25:47,240
Speaker 2: to see where his eye is at this point in

1850
01:25:47,320 --> 01:25:49,840
Speaker 2: his recovery, and that's something we would hope to get

1851
01:25:49,840 --> 01:25:51,719
Speaker 2: an update on in the coming weeks. At the combine.

1852
01:25:51,760 --> 01:25:54,200
Speaker 2: Just to fill you all in, Chris Ballot usually does

1853
01:25:54,320 --> 01:25:58,240
Speaker 2: talk and it's not always about the draft. I mean

1854
01:25:58,280 --> 01:26:00,320
Speaker 2: a lot of these times, and I sure a lot

1855
01:26:00,320 --> 01:26:02,479
Speaker 2: of these questions will be about Anthony Richardson his future,

1856
01:26:02,720 --> 01:26:06,639
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones, his progress. Hey, is Chavarius Mooney Ward going

1857
01:26:06,720 --> 01:26:08,479
Speaker 2: to still be a cult this upcoming season?

1858
01:26:08,520 --> 01:26:12,040
Speaker 3: Those are questions that we will ask, but no, Kevin.

1859
01:26:12,120 --> 01:26:13,920
Speaker 2: And honestly, one of the questions I got the other

1860
01:26:14,000 --> 01:26:16,679
Speaker 2: day when I put out my top five Colts free

1861
01:26:16,720 --> 01:26:21,240
Speaker 2: agents was well, you know, what is the depth chart

1862
01:26:21,280 --> 01:26:26,400
Speaker 2: at quarterback? If you re signed Daniel Jones, is ar

1863
01:26:26,560 --> 01:26:28,960
Speaker 2: still number two? And I don't even think that's the case.

1864
01:26:29,320 --> 01:26:30,800
Speaker 2: If I had to rank them, if they're all three

1865
01:26:30,920 --> 01:26:33,920
Speaker 2: on the roster this upcoming season, to me, it would

1866
01:26:33,960 --> 01:26:38,479
Speaker 2: probably be Daniel Jones, Riley Leonard, and then Anthony Richardson.

1867
01:26:38,600 --> 01:26:40,559
Speaker 3: Well, if you've got Richard's a third string, you can't

1868
01:26:40,600 --> 01:26:42,600
Speaker 3: have him a ten point eight million dollar capet for

1869
01:26:42,680 --> 01:26:44,519
Speaker 3: your third string quarterback. That's why I don't think he'll

1870
01:26:44,520 --> 01:26:47,680
Speaker 3: be around. And then also we has Riley Leonard earned that?

1871
01:26:48,040 --> 01:26:50,880
Speaker 3: Has he earned to be above Anthony Richardson? I mean,

1872
01:26:50,920 --> 01:26:54,760
Speaker 3: he's played what six quarters of NFL football? I don't

1873
01:26:54,800 --> 01:26:57,720
Speaker 3: know if he's earned it. Necessarily, Kevin, but I think

1874
01:26:57,760 --> 01:27:00,519
Speaker 3: it's trending in that direction. I mean, are kind of

1875
01:27:00,600 --> 01:27:03,680
Speaker 3: hinted at it at his end of season press conference. Now,

1876
01:27:03,720 --> 01:27:06,720
Speaker 3: granted this is within the mindset of Anthony still kind

1877
01:27:06,760 --> 01:27:09,479
Speaker 3: of being injured, but he said, well, if Anthony isn't

1878
01:27:09,479 --> 01:27:11,920
Speaker 3: where he needs to be, we feel good about Riley

1879
01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:15,000
Speaker 3: being on number two. So I just think that once

1880
01:27:15,040 --> 01:27:18,680
Speaker 3: you open that can up, I mean, I don't know

1881
01:27:18,720 --> 01:27:20,600
Speaker 3: if necessarily if I don't know if it's necessary to

1882
01:27:20,680 --> 01:27:24,880
Speaker 3: have like a open competition for QWB two going into

1883
01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:27,040
Speaker 3: next season. And then the flip side of it is,

1884
01:27:27,960 --> 01:27:29,600
Speaker 3: how many of us really think Anthony still wants to

1885
01:27:29,600 --> 01:27:29,840
Speaker 3: be here?

1886
01:27:30,439 --> 01:27:30,639
Speaker 1: Sure?

1887
01:27:30,760 --> 01:27:33,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, again, there are a lot of other factors, yeah,

1888
01:27:33,280 --> 01:27:35,760
Speaker 3: outside of just should they keep him. Giving Daniel Jones'

1889
01:27:35,800 --> 01:27:38,880
Speaker 3: injury history, it is probably worth pointing out again the

1890
01:27:38,960 --> 01:27:41,800
Speaker 3: Colts feel uber optimistic about Daniel Jones in his return

1891
01:27:41,840 --> 01:27:47,559
Speaker 3: to health. But you know, potentially Riley Leonard he might

1892
01:27:47,640 --> 01:27:50,920
Speaker 3: get every starting rep the spring if Daniel Jones is

1893
01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:54,080
Speaker 3: yet to be cleared for that activity. Now again, it's

1894
01:27:54,120 --> 01:27:56,360
Speaker 3: a Red Jersey quarterback. You know, he could maybe do

1895
01:27:56,520 --> 01:27:59,280
Speaker 3: some stuff in the spring within your own building there,

1896
01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:02,719
Speaker 3: But we could be looking at a spring of Riley

1897
01:28:02,800 --> 01:28:04,000
Speaker 3: Leonard leading starting offense.

1898
01:28:04,280 --> 01:28:06,080
Speaker 1: It could be looking at a couple of weeks in

1899
01:28:06,160 --> 01:28:07,200
Speaker 1: training camp if that happened.

1900
01:28:07,200 --> 01:28:11,280
Speaker 3: In Yeah, I think internally they really believe Daniel Jones

1901
01:28:11,320 --> 01:28:12,519
Speaker 3: will be clear for training camp.

1902
01:28:12,640 --> 01:28:12,840
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1903
01:28:12,920 --> 01:28:15,640
Speaker 3: Now again, clear for training camp, you still rock the

1904
01:28:15,720 --> 01:28:16,240
Speaker 3: red jersey.

1905
01:28:16,760 --> 01:28:16,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1906
01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:19,080
Speaker 3: And clear for training camp does not mean you go

1907
01:28:19,160 --> 01:28:20,320
Speaker 3: put him in a preseason game.

1908
01:28:20,479 --> 01:28:20,679
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1909
01:28:20,800 --> 01:28:24,200
Speaker 2: So, and also you're probably not taking every single rep.

1910
01:28:24,439 --> 01:28:26,439
Speaker 2: We saw it with Anthony with the shoulder when he

1911
01:28:26,520 --> 01:28:28,640
Speaker 2: came back, where you ease him back into it. So

1912
01:28:29,240 --> 01:28:31,559
Speaker 2: when we get out there to Westfield for the last time,

1913
01:28:31,720 --> 01:28:35,040
Speaker 2: actually because this will be the last off site training

1914
01:28:35,080 --> 01:28:38,360
Speaker 2: camp for the Colts, I wouldn't expect us to see

1915
01:28:38,600 --> 01:28:40,559
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones take every first team rep.

1916
01:28:40,960 --> 01:28:42,679
Speaker 3: That to me would be a little naive. You definitely

1917
01:28:42,720 --> 01:28:43,000
Speaker 3: want to.

1918
01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:45,599
Speaker 2: Low manage, so to speaking of us a big part

1919
01:28:45,680 --> 01:28:48,280
Speaker 2: of the NBA lingo, But in this scenario, you definitely

1920
01:28:48,280 --> 01:28:50,800
Speaker 2: don't want to overdo it with a guy who you're

1921
01:28:50,880 --> 01:28:54,200
Speaker 2: banking your season on in Daniel Jones.

1922
01:28:54,720 --> 01:28:55,000
Speaker 9: All right.

1923
01:28:55,040 --> 01:28:56,960
Speaker 1: Coming up in a moment, Scott Agnes talks about the

1924
01:28:57,000 --> 01:29:01,240
Speaker 1: Pacers they're unlikely win with an unlikely last night in

1925
01:29:01,320 --> 01:29:03,280
Speaker 1: Bookelen and what do they do with the rest of

1926
01:29:03,320 --> 01:29:05,599
Speaker 1: the season. We'll talk about it as we continue ninety

1927
01:29:05,600 --> 01:29:07,000
Speaker 1: three to five in one O seven five The Fan,

1928
01:29:08,320 --> 01:29:11,719
Speaker 1: Good Morning Everyone, Thursday and the Fan Morning Show along

1929
01:29:11,760 --> 01:29:14,240
Speaker 1: with Kevin Bowen, James Boyd, I'm jeff Rickard, Mark Dyke

1930
01:29:14,320 --> 01:29:16,599
Speaker 1: and spinning the tunes back there, and we are talking

1931
01:29:16,640 --> 01:29:20,360
Speaker 1: Pacers basketball. Despite all efforts, We've been talking about it

1932
01:29:20,439 --> 01:29:22,320
Speaker 1: this morning, despite all efforts, they come up with a

1933
01:29:22,360 --> 01:29:25,479
Speaker 1: win last night against the New Jersey the Brooklyn Nets,

1934
01:29:25,479 --> 01:29:28,599
Speaker 1: I'll say New Jersey Nets and San Diego Chargers forever probably,

1935
01:29:28,640 --> 01:29:31,200
Speaker 1: But the Pacers went at one fifteen to one ten.

1936
01:29:31,840 --> 01:29:33,840
Speaker 1: And we've been talking about all morning long. We thought

1937
01:29:33,880 --> 01:29:36,160
Speaker 1: we check in with Scott Agnes from the Fieldhouse Files

1938
01:29:36,160 --> 01:29:38,320
Speaker 1: to get his reaction. He joined us now on the

1939
01:29:38,320 --> 01:29:42,040
Speaker 1: Payless Lookers Hotline. So, mister Agnes, on a night when

1940
01:29:42,080 --> 01:29:48,120
Speaker 1: the Pacers play without Pascal Siakam, Andrew Nemhart, Aaron Nismith, TJ. McConnell,

1941
01:29:48,160 --> 01:29:52,479
Speaker 1: Avitz a Zubats, clearly without Obi Toppin, and clearly without

1942
01:29:52,560 --> 01:29:54,880
Speaker 1: Tyrese Holliburton, they go on the road and they win

1943
01:29:54,920 --> 01:29:56,880
Speaker 1: a basketball game. How surprised were you.

1944
01:29:58,560 --> 01:30:00,439
Speaker 4: Just a little bit only because us.

1945
01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:04,880
Speaker 9: How many few players they had available, right, But the

1946
01:30:04,920 --> 01:30:07,040
Speaker 9: grand scheme of things is that the nets were down

1947
01:30:07,080 --> 01:30:09,560
Speaker 9: players too. What you're seeing a lot of times is

1948
01:30:09,840 --> 01:30:13,679
Speaker 9: opponents sneaking in rest for some of their best players

1949
01:30:14,040 --> 01:30:16,679
Speaker 9: when a team like the Pacers comes around. But I'm

1950
01:30:16,720 --> 01:30:19,400
Speaker 9: not surprised mostly though, Jeff, because you got to remember

1951
01:30:19,640 --> 01:30:22,280
Speaker 9: the like seven guys that are available, they're playing for

1952
01:30:22,479 --> 01:30:24,439
Speaker 9: a job, some of them are trying to play for

1953
01:30:24,560 --> 01:30:27,439
Speaker 9: better jobs, and so much like you know, the final

1954
01:30:27,560 --> 01:30:29,919
Speaker 9: NFL game or whatever, there's a lot on the line.

1955
01:30:29,720 --> 01:30:32,280
Speaker 4: For these guys, and they played hard. Scott.

1956
01:30:32,520 --> 01:30:35,600
Speaker 3: So far, we have yet to see Rick Carlisle go

1957
01:30:35,840 --> 01:30:40,479
Speaker 3: with like the full on sit Siakam Sittney Smith sitting

1958
01:30:40,560 --> 01:30:43,120
Speaker 3: him hard, unless it's been a back to back. We

1959
01:30:43,200 --> 01:30:45,080
Speaker 3: haven't even seen him do with the Jazz have done

1960
01:30:45,160 --> 01:30:47,560
Speaker 3: and you know, play the guys for three quarters and

1961
01:30:47,600 --> 01:30:50,760
Speaker 3: then sit them post all Star break. What do you

1962
01:30:50,960 --> 01:30:53,560
Speaker 3: think we will see? We will we see the continued

1963
01:30:53,920 --> 01:30:56,240
Speaker 3: nature to what they're doing mostly second nights of back

1964
01:30:56,240 --> 01:30:58,679
Speaker 3: to backs, or do you think we'll see more outright resting.

1965
01:30:59,680 --> 01:31:02,679
Speaker 9: We did catch my eye last night KB the top

1966
01:31:02,920 --> 01:31:06,599
Speaker 9: three scores. I think at that time where Jaris Walker,

1967
01:31:06,680 --> 01:31:10,120
Speaker 9: Quinton Jackson, and Ethan Thompson, and none of those guys

1968
01:31:10,200 --> 01:31:12,760
Speaker 9: were in in the final minutes I remember specifically. I

1969
01:31:12,800 --> 01:31:15,120
Speaker 9: think it was three minutes left and Jarris Walker was

1970
01:31:15,160 --> 01:31:20,280
Speaker 9: subbed out for Micah Potter, maybe something, maybe nothing, But Yeah, realistically,

1971
01:31:20,360 --> 01:31:23,080
Speaker 9: I think I think it's more likely that their minutes

1972
01:31:23,080 --> 01:31:29,200
Speaker 9: are reduced much more than it is guys taking games

1973
01:31:29,240 --> 01:31:32,080
Speaker 9: off or anything like that. I think you bring you

1974
01:31:32,240 --> 01:31:34,760
Speaker 9: take your time with Obi Toppen, You obviously take your

1975
01:31:34,760 --> 01:31:38,120
Speaker 9: time with Zubots. Those guys in particular, there's guys like

1976
01:31:38,240 --> 01:31:41,280
Speaker 9: Nie Smith who could very much use a couple couple

1977
01:31:41,360 --> 01:31:45,720
Speaker 9: additional games. But I think it'll be a matter of

1978
01:31:46,000 --> 01:31:50,080
Speaker 9: more so how they handle minutes and rotation rather than

1979
01:31:50,520 --> 01:31:53,200
Speaker 9: playing games like last night where you have half your

1980
01:31:53,280 --> 01:31:54,080
Speaker 9: roster available.

1981
01:31:54,600 --> 01:31:57,479
Speaker 2: Scott, will you look at the addition of Avisa Zubots

1982
01:31:58,000 --> 01:32:00,640
Speaker 2: and what Chad buchantus Hill on the Rocks last night

1983
01:32:00,720 --> 01:32:02,799
Speaker 2: of Hey, you want to be right back into championship

1984
01:32:02,840 --> 01:32:06,320
Speaker 2: contention next year, how do you think zubats perhaps add

1985
01:32:06,400 --> 01:32:08,759
Speaker 2: to that, even with the implications of the draft.

1986
01:32:09,560 --> 01:32:12,360
Speaker 9: Yeah, Number one, James's stable life is a center spot

1987
01:32:12,800 --> 01:32:15,120
Speaker 9: that just has been out of sorts all season, right,

1988
01:32:15,200 --> 01:32:18,120
Speaker 9: just because you didn't have anybody of that caliber, and

1989
01:32:18,880 --> 01:32:23,000
Speaker 9: the and where he really increases what they do with rebounding,

1990
01:32:23,120 --> 01:32:25,599
Speaker 9: something they really have not had out of that position

1991
01:32:26,200 --> 01:32:29,320
Speaker 9: other than maybe Somebonis in recent years. But more than that,

1992
01:32:29,800 --> 01:32:33,639
Speaker 9: it's his versatility, it's its production. His physicality is intriguing.

1993
01:32:34,720 --> 01:32:36,960
Speaker 9: But what I'm really curious to see is so much

1994
01:32:37,000 --> 01:32:40,040
Speaker 9: of what Miles did with pick and pop and Zubots

1995
01:32:40,120 --> 01:32:42,719
Speaker 9: is going to be rolling or got to be prepared

1996
01:32:42,760 --> 01:32:44,800
Speaker 9: to knock down and say that's fifteen's foot or right.

1997
01:32:44,920 --> 01:32:49,800
Speaker 9: And so I cautiously optimistically feel good about where the

1998
01:32:49,840 --> 01:32:52,760
Speaker 9: Pacers can be next season. But you got several of

1999
01:32:52,840 --> 01:32:56,040
Speaker 9: these guys coming off significant injuries, certainly number one being

2000
01:32:56,120 --> 01:32:59,120
Speaker 9: Tyrese that it will take some time, but I think

2001
01:32:59,200 --> 01:33:03,680
Speaker 9: having having Zubats having that position handled now you're just

2002
01:33:03,840 --> 01:33:06,200
Speaker 9: intrigued to go back to the last question is can

2003
01:33:06,280 --> 01:33:09,320
Speaker 9: you finish this season on a positive note while also

2004
01:33:09,880 --> 01:33:14,280
Speaker 9: doing your best giving yourself the best case to secure

2005
01:33:14,320 --> 01:33:15,000
Speaker 9: that top four.

2006
01:33:14,920 --> 01:33:16,600
Speaker 4: Pick and therefore you would retain it.

2007
01:33:17,320 --> 01:33:19,640
Speaker 1: Scott Agnes field House Files joining us here on the

2008
01:33:19,760 --> 01:33:22,760
Speaker 1: paylist lickuers hotline. It's been the topic all day and

2009
01:33:23,040 --> 01:33:24,920
Speaker 1: you've been talking about the Pacers and their role in it.

2010
01:33:25,200 --> 01:33:26,160
Speaker 1: Is there a fix.

2011
01:33:28,479 --> 01:33:29,400
Speaker 4: In terms of tanking.

2012
01:33:29,680 --> 01:33:33,800
Speaker 9: Yeah, I've seen a few ideas tossed out that I'd

2013
01:33:33,880 --> 01:33:39,200
Speaker 9: give some consideration too. But realistically, I think teams, especially

2014
01:33:39,280 --> 01:33:41,280
Speaker 9: what have we been talking about in the last fifteen years,

2015
01:33:41,560 --> 01:33:45,200
Speaker 9: analytics data driven. I think the Pacers employee about five

2016
01:33:45,320 --> 01:33:47,920
Speaker 9: data people for basketball and.

2017
01:33:48,040 --> 01:33:50,439
Speaker 4: For the front office. They all have their different roles.

2018
01:33:50,479 --> 01:33:54,240
Speaker 9: I just think that's if any team can can get

2019
01:33:54,280 --> 01:33:56,120
Speaker 9: an advantage, I think they're going to try to in

2020
01:33:56,160 --> 01:33:59,639
Speaker 9: a certain way, especially these smaller markets, because they need

2021
01:34:00,920 --> 01:34:04,160
Speaker 9: any any little little leg up on the Lakers, on

2022
01:34:04,600 --> 01:34:06,519
Speaker 9: the Knicks that they can get, for example.

2023
01:34:06,600 --> 01:34:10,240
Speaker 4: But one idea was, do you do you set the lottery?

2024
01:34:11,240 --> 01:34:14,040
Speaker 9: You know right now and so hey, you can't hurt

2025
01:34:14,160 --> 01:34:15,880
Speaker 9: or help your chances the rest of the way, so

2026
01:34:16,000 --> 01:34:17,160
Speaker 9: you might as well change.

2027
01:34:18,360 --> 01:34:19,320
Speaker 4: I've also seen.

2028
01:34:19,240 --> 01:34:22,640
Speaker 9: Years ago there was a discussion about just giving h

2029
01:34:23,720 --> 01:34:29,000
Speaker 9: having some kind of lottery odds, where in general I

2030
01:34:29,120 --> 01:34:31,400
Speaker 9: think all teams would have a chance of it at

2031
01:34:31,439 --> 01:34:35,040
Speaker 9: it eventually and so it would be less season specific.

2032
01:34:35,160 --> 01:34:37,880
Speaker 4: But then, how do you, then you have a more

2033
01:34:38,040 --> 01:34:38,640
Speaker 4: likely than not you.

2034
01:34:38,640 --> 01:34:40,439
Speaker 9: Would have a case of what happened in Golden State

2035
01:34:40,479 --> 01:34:42,400
Speaker 9: happened where the rich get richer and it takes a

2036
01:34:42,439 --> 01:34:45,479
Speaker 9: little bit longer for teams rebuild. What I would like

2037
01:34:45,560 --> 01:34:48,400
Speaker 9: to see, Jeff, is for the league office to come

2038
01:34:48,439 --> 01:34:51,280
Speaker 9: a little bit more harsher here if it is blatant,

2039
01:34:51,720 --> 01:34:54,519
Speaker 9: which is not what the Pacers have been doing by.

2040
01:34:54,439 --> 01:34:57,200
Speaker 4: Any means, but what Utaw for example, is doing.

2041
01:34:57,560 --> 01:34:59,439
Speaker 9: If it is blatant, there needs to be some kind

2042
01:34:59,520 --> 01:35:02,599
Speaker 9: of fine, kind of penalty, to which point we'll find

2043
01:35:02,600 --> 01:35:06,080
Speaker 9: out what number eventually is harsh enough, and then teams

2044
01:35:06,120 --> 01:35:07,280
Speaker 9: will stop and they'll adapt.

2045
01:35:07,840 --> 01:35:10,360
Speaker 3: Scott, I say, screw the fine, They're gonna pay whatever

2046
01:35:10,400 --> 01:35:12,400
Speaker 3: they want to pay. You got to take away draft

2047
01:35:12,479 --> 01:35:15,120
Speaker 3: picks if you really want to make a punishment, and

2048
01:35:15,200 --> 01:35:18,240
Speaker 3: that is a severe punishment. But we see this across

2049
01:35:18,360 --> 01:35:23,120
Speaker 3: all pro sports. Owners will happily happily right Well, I

2050
01:35:23,160 --> 01:35:24,960
Speaker 3: don't know that many happiies, but they will. They are

2051
01:35:25,040 --> 01:35:28,400
Speaker 3: content to write a check as long as they can

2052
01:35:28,560 --> 01:35:33,519
Speaker 3: maintain the building process to their operation, I e.

2053
01:35:33,680 --> 01:35:34,040
Speaker 4: Draft that.

2054
01:35:34,560 --> 01:35:37,120
Speaker 9: I'm good with that then, But what I would say is,

2055
01:35:37,160 --> 01:35:39,200
Speaker 9: you don't take it away, you go to the back

2056
01:35:39,240 --> 01:35:41,880
Speaker 9: of the lottery line. So if you're fighting for two, three,

2057
01:35:41,960 --> 01:35:45,080
Speaker 9: and four, now you go to fourteen, and you could

2058
01:35:45,160 --> 01:35:50,160
Speaker 9: move up if another team follows and tries to tweak

2059
01:35:50,200 --> 01:35:52,360
Speaker 9: the system as well. But I don't want to reduce

2060
01:35:52,400 --> 01:35:55,280
Speaker 9: the number of draft picks because then you're reducing the

2061
01:35:55,439 --> 01:35:58,120
Speaker 9: chances for players to get drafted and all of that

2062
01:35:58,240 --> 01:35:58,519
Speaker 9: as well.

2063
01:35:58,600 --> 01:35:59,240
Speaker 1: But I'm good with that.

2064
01:35:59,680 --> 01:36:02,080
Speaker 3: I like move mec lotter. I think that's a good idea.

2065
01:36:02,439 --> 01:36:04,880
Speaker 3: Scott agnesfield House files with us. That's where you can

2066
01:36:04,920 --> 01:36:07,320
Speaker 3: find his work. We are approaching a little bit more

2067
01:36:07,400 --> 01:36:10,360
Speaker 3: on the Indiana fever. We saw the news yesterday Caitlin

2068
01:36:10,400 --> 01:36:13,519
Speaker 3: Clark Leah Boston a part of a five game Team

2069
01:36:13,640 --> 01:36:17,320
Speaker 3: USA schedule coming up. This is next month down in

2070
01:36:17,439 --> 01:36:20,160
Speaker 3: Puerto Rico. Scott, do you have any idea will those

2071
01:36:20,200 --> 01:36:23,080
Speaker 3: games be aired on TV? I asked that because obviously

2072
01:36:23,200 --> 01:36:25,439
Speaker 3: we haven't seen Kaitlyn Clark in a five on five

2073
01:36:25,520 --> 01:36:26,960
Speaker 3: setting and quite some time.

2074
01:36:27,880 --> 01:36:29,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, we do not know just yet.

2075
01:36:29,680 --> 01:36:32,439
Speaker 9: But you would assume somebody would be smart enough to

2076
01:36:32,560 --> 01:36:34,960
Speaker 9: pick this up, and I would be stunned if it

2077
01:36:35,120 --> 01:36:39,479
Speaker 9: wasn't at least available on something like an ESPN Plus platform,

2078
01:36:39,640 --> 01:36:42,639
Speaker 9: just because a lot of FEVA games are televised in general,

2079
01:36:43,040 --> 01:36:46,439
Speaker 9: but these being just a qualifying tournament, I wonder how

2080
01:36:46,520 --> 01:36:49,479
Speaker 9: that factors in. I wouldn't be certain that it's on

2081
01:36:49,600 --> 01:36:52,400
Speaker 9: any kind of linear network, but I would be sure.

2082
01:36:52,520 --> 01:36:53,920
Speaker 4: I would guess it is streamed.

2083
01:36:53,920 --> 01:36:57,040
Speaker 9: It's the most dominant you know, women's basketball team being

2084
01:36:57,080 --> 01:37:02,960
Speaker 9: the Olympics type square in. This group's trying to participate

2085
01:37:03,000 --> 01:37:05,959
Speaker 9: in that. They've already, by the way, qualified for the Olympics.

2086
01:37:06,200 --> 01:37:08,000
Speaker 9: So this is all about a new coach in Karol

2087
01:37:08,040 --> 01:37:11,400
Speaker 9: Lawson and a new group of players in addition to

2088
01:37:11,479 --> 01:37:13,840
Speaker 9: some that will obviously be back for the Olympic team,

2089
01:37:14,320 --> 01:37:17,200
Speaker 9: kind of getting their first taste together and building that continuity.

2090
01:37:17,479 --> 01:37:20,479
Speaker 2: So, Scott, you know how much of a competitor Caitlin is.

2091
01:37:20,920 --> 01:37:22,960
Speaker 2: Do you think she's still caring a little bit of that?

2092
01:37:23,800 --> 01:37:25,560
Speaker 2: I should have been here a little while ago, but

2093
01:37:25,720 --> 01:37:27,160
Speaker 2: now I'm here now, and I have to, you know,

2094
01:37:27,320 --> 01:37:28,120
Speaker 2: show you all why.

2095
01:37:29,080 --> 01:37:34,840
Speaker 9: Oh yeah, oh yeah, she doesn't forget anything. No, no, no, no, no, yeah,

2096
01:37:34,920 --> 01:37:38,040
Speaker 9: she's uber competitive, you get it. Absolutely. I don't think

2097
01:37:38,080 --> 01:37:41,439
Speaker 9: it's in a detrimental way, no, but I think that

2098
01:37:42,160 --> 01:37:44,280
Speaker 9: as she takes the court each game, I'd set there,

2099
01:37:44,920 --> 01:37:47,600
Speaker 9: all right, you didn't want me, Let's and it's not

2100
01:37:47,720 --> 01:37:49,639
Speaker 9: to say I need to force shots or do anything,

2101
01:37:49,680 --> 01:37:53,840
Speaker 9: and more of just let's channel this flight like so

2102
01:37:54,000 --> 01:37:55,240
Speaker 9: many of the greats have done.

2103
01:37:55,680 --> 01:37:57,760
Speaker 4: And yeah, that didn't go in anywhere. She's always going

2104
01:37:57,800 --> 01:37:58,280
Speaker 4: to remember that.

2105
01:37:58,520 --> 01:38:02,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, when I think of Kaitlyn, and honestly, maybe I'm

2106
01:38:02,360 --> 01:38:04,120
Speaker 2: too online with this guy, but I thought she took

2107
01:38:04,160 --> 01:38:07,240
Speaker 2: a lot of criticism last year as she battled through

2108
01:38:07,240 --> 01:38:08,840
Speaker 2: the injuries and ultimately had said of the rest of

2109
01:38:08,920 --> 01:38:11,160
Speaker 2: the season, And it's almost a little bit of like,

2110
01:38:11,400 --> 01:38:13,840
Speaker 2: did you all forget that she was First team All

2111
01:38:14,000 --> 01:38:17,439
Speaker 2: WNBA as a rookie. And so, I mean, Richard James,

2112
01:38:17,520 --> 01:38:21,240
Speaker 2: Oh lord, I mean, I love Reggie Miller, but I

2113
01:38:21,280 --> 01:38:23,080
Speaker 2: don't know if if Reggie's really is dialed in?

2114
01:38:23,439 --> 01:38:24,400
Speaker 3: Is you and I are?

2115
01:38:24,439 --> 01:38:27,479
Speaker 2: Scott, And honestly, you and Tony East more so than I.

2116
01:38:27,720 --> 01:38:30,000
Speaker 2: But yeah, well we'll have to check in with Reggie

2117
01:38:30,040 --> 01:38:32,599
Speaker 2: to see if after Caitlyn does her thing with Team USA,

2118
01:38:32,720 --> 01:38:33,479
Speaker 2: his opinion changes.

2119
01:38:33,520 --> 01:38:35,559
Speaker 3: Did you see her tweet? I'm sure Scott saw. Scott,

2120
01:38:35,680 --> 01:38:37,920
Speaker 3: you saw the Caitlyn Clark tweet when the NBA had

2121
01:38:37,960 --> 01:38:40,200
Speaker 3: the highlight of Peyton Pritchard had a buzzer beat her

2122
01:38:40,240 --> 01:38:42,280
Speaker 3: and she she gave a couple of wink emojis.

2123
01:38:42,360 --> 01:38:44,560
Speaker 4: I believe, oh absolutely.

2124
01:38:44,720 --> 01:38:48,840
Speaker 9: And again that's her being her kind of playful, unserious self,

2125
01:38:48,920 --> 01:38:51,360
Speaker 9: which is exactly who she is as like a twenty

2126
01:38:51,400 --> 01:38:54,080
Speaker 9: three year old she she you know that got to her.

2127
01:38:54,520 --> 01:38:57,240
Speaker 9: Oh yes, it's like what, I'm sorry, what I'm a

2128
01:38:57,360 --> 01:39:00,320
Speaker 9: generational player, like if you default to any one, it's

2129
01:39:00,320 --> 01:39:02,679
Speaker 9: Steph Curry, like if you give no outside the box

2130
01:39:02,760 --> 01:39:03,720
Speaker 9: thinking that's who it is.

2131
01:39:04,439 --> 01:39:06,800
Speaker 4: What was so odd about it, guys, was the fact

2132
01:39:06,800 --> 01:39:07,799
Speaker 4: that those.

2133
01:39:07,640 --> 01:39:11,679
Speaker 9: Are usually planned segments, plan you know, plan talking points,

2134
01:39:11,880 --> 01:39:15,160
Speaker 9: meaning she had all afternoon to consider who might be

2135
01:39:15,280 --> 01:39:18,240
Speaker 9: that individual. I doubt he was caught off guard by

2136
01:39:18,280 --> 01:39:20,800
Speaker 9: the question, which then you might understand it. But it

2137
01:39:20,960 --> 01:39:22,720
Speaker 9: was funny to see Kaitlyn lean into it because I

2138
01:39:22,720 --> 01:39:25,519
Speaker 9: think it was Pretcher making a buzzer beater and a big.

2139
01:39:25,439 --> 01:39:27,320
Speaker 4: Shot and she was like, yeah, sure I do that too.

2140
01:39:28,560 --> 01:39:31,040
Speaker 1: Last thing on Caitlyn too. I just find it so cool.

2141
01:39:31,120 --> 01:39:33,720
Speaker 1: Maybe she's hanging around because she's rehabbing whatever, Just the

2142
01:39:33,800 --> 01:39:37,080
Speaker 1: fact that she's become such a part of Indianapolis and

2143
01:39:37,439 --> 01:39:40,679
Speaker 1: she shows up a high school basketball games, college games,

2144
01:39:40,960 --> 01:39:45,920
Speaker 1: NFL games, like she has fully embraced Indianapolis as a

2145
01:39:45,960 --> 01:39:48,800
Speaker 1: place to be and I love that you shed any

2146
01:39:48,840 --> 01:39:51,720
Speaker 1: more light on how she views living here and being

2147
01:39:51,760 --> 01:39:52,200
Speaker 1: a part of this.

2148
01:39:53,160 --> 01:39:55,960
Speaker 9: Yeah, this is a big reason why she was, you know,

2149
01:39:56,120 --> 01:39:59,680
Speaker 9: excited to go presumably at the time obviously, but number one,

2150
01:40:00,080 --> 01:40:00,679
Speaker 9: to Indiana.

2151
01:40:00,760 --> 01:40:01,719
Speaker 4: She's a Midwest girl.

2152
01:40:01,840 --> 01:40:04,960
Speaker 9: She's from five to six hour drive, so it's easy

2153
01:40:05,000 --> 01:40:08,880
Speaker 9: to be with family friends and they were grew up very.

2154
01:40:08,840 --> 01:40:10,000
Speaker 4: Much like all of us.

2155
01:40:10,080 --> 01:40:12,519
Speaker 9: And in fact, she committed and thought she might go

2156
01:40:12,600 --> 01:40:16,400
Speaker 9: to Notre Dame and so all along, coming to Indiana

2157
01:40:16,640 --> 01:40:19,160
Speaker 9: was the best case scenario for her with the draft,

2158
01:40:19,240 --> 01:40:21,599
Speaker 9: and then I think she's just taken off with at

2159
01:40:21,640 --> 01:40:26,360
Speaker 9: number one. She's able to use the team practice facilities

2160
01:40:26,439 --> 01:40:29,840
Speaker 9: and that obviously had a big impact. She's a big

2161
01:40:29,920 --> 01:40:32,240
Speaker 9: sports viewer, much like Tyree's on the men's side, and

2162
01:40:32,320 --> 01:40:35,320
Speaker 9: so if there's some kind of competitive game, she wants

2163
01:40:35,360 --> 01:40:35,840
Speaker 9: to watch it.

2164
01:40:35,920 --> 01:40:36,920
Speaker 4: And see all of that.

2165
01:40:37,320 --> 01:40:40,840
Speaker 9: Obviously, your boyfriend Connor McCaffrey at Butler has been a

2166
01:40:40,960 --> 01:40:43,640
Speaker 9: huge influence and a lot of that as well. And

2167
01:40:43,720 --> 01:40:46,880
Speaker 9: then just the fact that she's an avid sports fan.

2168
01:40:46,960 --> 01:40:49,479
Speaker 9: I mean, she's just like one of us, just living

2169
01:40:49,520 --> 01:40:51,799
Speaker 9: in Indianapolis and loving the Midwest.

2170
01:40:52,960 --> 01:40:55,000
Speaker 1: Always good to talk to you, buddy. Thanks for getting

2171
01:40:55,080 --> 01:40:57,760
Speaker 1: up with us and giving us your thoughts on how

2172
01:40:57,800 --> 01:40:59,920
Speaker 1: things are going with the Pacers and Fever will continue

2173
01:40:59,960 --> 01:41:02,839
Speaker 1: to call on you and we'll talk to you soon. Absolutely,

2174
01:41:02,960 --> 01:41:05,960
Speaker 1: Thank you, guys, Fieldhouse Files. Check him out. Scott Agnes

2175
01:41:06,000 --> 01:41:08,400
Speaker 1: there on the Payless Slickers hot line. And that is

2176
01:41:08,479 --> 01:41:10,920
Speaker 1: one thing I've just enjoyed. Like you talked about going

2177
01:41:11,000 --> 01:41:13,679
Speaker 1: to the Pike game the other night, and three rows

2178
01:41:13,680 --> 01:41:15,640
Speaker 1: in front of you there there's Caitlin Clark just hanging out.

2179
01:41:15,760 --> 01:41:17,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was a little bit of a double take

2180
01:41:17,800 --> 01:41:19,200
Speaker 3: for me. I was like, man, I'm seeing things like

2181
01:41:19,240 --> 01:41:21,560
Speaker 3: got to sleep last night. But there she was.

2182
01:41:21,680 --> 01:41:23,920
Speaker 2: And the reason why I was kind of caught off guard,

2183
01:41:23,960 --> 01:41:27,519
Speaker 2: you all, is because of the lack of fanfare. It

2184
01:41:27,640 --> 01:41:30,080
Speaker 2: was kind of like, oh, she's been here, and granted

2185
01:41:30,080 --> 01:41:31,640
Speaker 2: I don't think anybody could just walk up to her.

2186
01:41:32,000 --> 01:41:35,160
Speaker 2: She was very much surrounded by the butler looked like

2187
01:41:35,240 --> 01:41:38,080
Speaker 2: butler coaching staff, or at least a butler in Indiana

2188
01:41:38,120 --> 01:41:41,280
Speaker 2: Fever employees. But beyond that, again, It wasn't like one

2189
01:41:41,320 --> 01:41:43,200
Speaker 2: of those things where she shows up the entire gym

2190
01:41:43,240 --> 01:41:46,080
Speaker 2: stops and we're all waiting to see autographs and pictures. Nope,

2191
01:41:46,120 --> 01:41:48,000
Speaker 2: it was just her checking out a very good high

2192
01:41:48,000 --> 01:41:50,720
Speaker 2: school basketball game and now I'm like, Okay, well, I'll

2193
01:41:50,720 --> 01:41:51,599
Speaker 2: probably see it a few more.

2194
01:41:51,920 --> 01:41:53,280
Speaker 1: And her luck was a little bit like that too.

2195
01:41:53,400 --> 01:41:55,599
Speaker 1: Wasn't Kevin where he people would just see him here

2196
01:41:55,640 --> 01:41:58,479
Speaker 1: and there downtown walking around or at a restaurant or

2197
01:41:58,520 --> 01:42:01,040
Speaker 1: something like that. But people kind of leave those folks

2198
01:42:01,080 --> 01:42:01,880
Speaker 1: alone here in Indy.

2199
01:42:02,840 --> 01:42:05,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, Marcus Freeman can't say the same thing about

2200
01:42:05,400 --> 01:42:10,080
Speaker 3: the old Wrestling meet earlier this year. But yeah, it's

2201
01:42:10,120 --> 01:42:13,559
Speaker 3: always Notre Dame. I'm believe, Andrew, I mean, am I wrong?

2202
01:42:13,760 --> 01:42:16,639
Speaker 1: That's the way you're wrong. It was an insane situation.

2203
01:42:16,800 --> 01:42:19,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, Andrew Lucky. You used to live downtown right about

2204
01:42:19,600 --> 01:42:22,479
Speaker 3: the old Indie Star building. Yeah, big old Provider coffee

2205
01:42:22,520 --> 01:42:24,880
Speaker 3: shop guy, and him and KB were neighbors when they

2206
01:42:24,920 --> 01:42:28,080
Speaker 3: worked with the Coldest together, same salaries.

2207
01:42:28,240 --> 01:42:29,519
Speaker 1: I was the apartment by the lake.

2208
01:42:30,439 --> 01:42:33,080
Speaker 3: I was the apartments next to Christmas Addicts right there,

2209
01:42:33,120 --> 01:42:36,679
Speaker 3: Campus apartments. Shout out to Mark Welsh, my roommate good stuff.

2210
01:42:36,680 --> 01:42:39,040

2217
01:42:58,880 --> 01:43:01,519
Speaker 1: The Indiana Pacers have the NBA All Star Break with

2218
01:43:01,600 --> 01:43:04,679
Speaker 1: a record of fifteen and forty. And we've been talking

2219
01:43:04,680 --> 01:43:06,559
Speaker 1: about tanking in the NBA. There could be as many

2220
01:43:06,600 --> 01:43:09,519
Speaker 1: as ten teams that are doing things here and there

2221
01:43:09,600 --> 01:43:12,280
Speaker 1: that may not help them win individual basketball games in

2222
01:43:12,360 --> 01:43:16,120
Speaker 1: hopes of improving their draft lottery odds. Pacers last night

2223
01:43:16,200 --> 01:43:19,320
Speaker 1: played without Pascal Siaka, Andrew Nemhart, Aaron Nee Smith, TJ.

2224
01:43:19,439 --> 01:43:23,280
Speaker 1: McConnell of Vitza Zubats and still won one fifteen to

2225
01:43:23,360 --> 01:43:27,120
Speaker 1: one ten over the Brooklyn Nets. James Boyd not bare.

2226
01:43:27,080 --> 01:43:29,120
Speaker 3: Right, So I guess you'll you'll take that.

2227
01:43:29,560 --> 01:43:31,680
Speaker 2: And you know, if you're if you're Cam Jones, but

2228
01:43:31,760 --> 01:43:34,080
Speaker 2: if you're a fan, you're poppy thinking boy, you know,

2229
01:43:34,200 --> 01:43:35,800
Speaker 2: don't get too much of a streak going here.

2230
01:43:36,160 --> 01:43:39,280
Speaker 1: PACER's had six players in double figures. Kevin Jaris Walker

2231
01:43:39,360 --> 01:43:41,240
Speaker 1: led the way with twenty three. Micah Potter at a

2232
01:43:41,320 --> 01:43:45,120
Speaker 1: nice game nineteen points twelve rebounds, Ethan Thompson contributed to fifteen.

2233
01:43:45,479 --> 01:43:48,519
Speaker 1: Taylor Peter had fourteen. A lot of the young guys,

2234
01:43:48,560 --> 01:43:51,000
Speaker 1: including Cam Jones who hit what would be the game

2235
01:43:51,080 --> 01:43:54,320
Speaker 1: winning three late. They're out there trying to show they

2236
01:43:54,400 --> 01:43:56,280
Speaker 1: belong in the NBA. They're gonna play as hard as

2237
01:43:56,280 --> 01:43:56,559
Speaker 1: they can.

2238
01:43:56,800 --> 01:43:59,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, and just to remind everybody, with these two wins,

2239
01:43:59,160 --> 01:44:04,480
Speaker 3: the Pacers have moved two spots lower in the lottery standings,

2240
01:44:04,600 --> 01:44:08,040
Speaker 3: so the odds have decreased by about five percent and

2241
01:44:08,160 --> 01:44:11,360
Speaker 3: getting the top four pick. Now, if they continue to win,

2242
01:44:11,479 --> 01:44:13,679
Speaker 3: those odds will start to shrink a little bit more

2243
01:44:13,760 --> 01:44:15,760
Speaker 3: and more so, just things to keep an eye on

2244
01:44:15,920 --> 01:44:19,519
Speaker 3: All Star break now. Pascal Siakam, of course, is an

2245
01:44:19,520 --> 01:44:22,080
Speaker 3: All Star. I believe Ethan Thompson is a G League

2246
01:44:22,680 --> 01:44:25,400
Speaker 3: All Star. They get sent out there as well. So

2247
01:44:25,840 --> 01:44:28,560
Speaker 3: out to LA a few lingering NBA games tonight, but

2248
01:44:28,720 --> 01:44:32,760
Speaker 3: off the LA for All Star weekend. Pacers next play

2249
01:44:32,880 --> 01:44:34,960
Speaker 3: the Wizards coming up a week from tonight.

2250
01:44:35,160 --> 01:44:38,439
Speaker 1: All right, other basketball News Team USA is Women's World

2251
01:44:38,520 --> 01:44:40,439
Speaker 1: Cup team going to try to qualify for the World

2252
01:44:40,520 --> 01:44:44,360
Speaker 1: Championships in San Juan, Puerto Rico, later this spring. Caitlin

2253
01:44:44,400 --> 01:44:47,280
Speaker 1: Clark and Leah Boston have been named to that roster.

2254
01:44:47,479 --> 01:44:49,920
Speaker 1: It his first time Caitlin is going to represent Team

2255
01:44:50,040 --> 01:44:51,320
Speaker 1: USA at any level.

2256
01:44:51,439 --> 01:44:54,640
Speaker 3: At a senior level, senior representative. Quite often you got

2257
01:44:54,680 --> 01:44:57,800
Speaker 3: some gold somewhere a senior level level. But yeah, So

2258
01:44:57,880 --> 01:44:59,680
Speaker 3: they have five games in Puerto Rico, like we just

2259
01:44:59,720 --> 01:45:02,000
Speaker 3: chat about with Scott Agnes, So I'm very curious to

2260
01:45:02,040 --> 01:45:05,160
Speaker 3: see how much obviously she plays, how she looks, you know,

2261
01:45:05,280 --> 01:45:07,679
Speaker 3: all of that. So Stephanie White a member of Karl

2262
01:45:07,720 --> 01:45:10,599
Speaker 3: Losson's staff there, and it's a star, star studed group

2263
01:45:10,680 --> 01:45:11,120
Speaker 3: real quick.

2264
01:45:11,280 --> 01:45:14,839
Speaker 2: I do wonder if she'll come off the bench because

2265
01:45:14,880 --> 01:45:17,040
Speaker 2: of how lowded they are. I get that they're a

2266
01:45:17,240 --> 01:45:20,120
Speaker 2: younger group going over there, but I just wonder how

2267
01:45:20,160 --> 01:45:21,960
Speaker 2: weird it would see. I don't know how many games

2268
01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:22,720
Speaker 2: that Kaylyn Clark has.

2269
01:45:22,680 --> 01:45:24,800
Speaker 3: Come off the bench in her career, but I would

2270
01:45:24,880 --> 01:45:27,760
Speaker 3: say it's maybe a possibility. I'm not sure that would

2271
01:45:27,800 --> 01:45:29,360
Speaker 3: not surprise me. She doesn't played in a five on

2272
01:45:29,479 --> 01:45:31,880
Speaker 3: five game and what eight months, I know, but in the.

2273
01:45:31,880 --> 01:45:34,320
Speaker 2: Build up to that, you do you aren't a bigger role,

2274
01:45:34,360 --> 01:45:36,000
Speaker 2: bigger spot. I don't know, but I'm curious to see

2275
01:45:36,000 --> 01:45:38,120
Speaker 2: her just back in action because we all know she

2276
01:45:38,280 --> 01:45:38,880
Speaker 2: is a needle mover.

2277
01:45:39,200 --> 01:45:41,880
Speaker 3: Very good USA Men's Olympians have come off the bench

2278
01:45:42,240 --> 01:45:44,640
Speaker 3: in there in their time. So I don't think the

2279
01:45:44,760 --> 01:45:47,240
Speaker 3: way that I always saw. I think a mellow is

2280
01:45:47,320 --> 01:45:50,320
Speaker 3: just a great six man in Tmosa history. So yeah,

2281
01:45:50,320 --> 01:45:51,439
Speaker 3: probably wouldn't be the end of the world.

2282
01:45:51,560 --> 01:45:54,840
Speaker 1: Tyrese Haliburton contributing to the group project last the summer.

2283
01:45:54,880 --> 01:45:56,800
Speaker 1: At the Olympics, she'll be playing more than him.

2284
01:45:56,880 --> 01:45:57,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can guarantee.

2285
01:45:57,880 --> 01:45:59,920
Speaker 1: I promise you that you call a winner over Butler

2286
01:46:00,000 --> 01:46:02,360
Speaker 1: at Heinkel last night, eighty to seventy solo ball at

2287
01:46:02,360 --> 01:46:05,920
Speaker 1: twenty four points for mister Basketball Indiana. Brayln Mullins had

2288
01:46:05,960 --> 01:46:09,400
Speaker 1: fifteen points and five rebounds. Butler hung tough. The big

2289
01:46:09,560 --> 01:46:13,200
Speaker 1: news for them another injury. Kevin Finley Bizjack went down

2290
01:46:13,280 --> 01:46:15,320
Speaker 1: hard trying to brace himself on a fall and it

2291
01:46:15,400 --> 01:46:17,960
Speaker 1: looked like his left wrist was really bothering. Came out

2292
01:46:18,000 --> 01:46:20,599
Speaker 1: of the game only scored five points. But I'm sure

2293
01:46:20,680 --> 01:46:23,080
Speaker 1: later on today we'll find out just exactly what happened.

2294
01:46:23,360 --> 01:46:26,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, it did not look good. Awful. You know, Butler's

2295
01:46:26,240 --> 01:46:29,120
Speaker 3: injury history has just been terrible this season, especially a

2296
01:46:29,160 --> 01:46:30,400
Speaker 3: point guard. You know, I said it's to lead off

2297
01:46:30,400 --> 01:46:32,240
Speaker 3: the show. Kind of reminds me the Fever last year,

2298
01:46:32,320 --> 01:46:35,599
Speaker 3: all these point guards that they are losing there. So yeah,

2299
01:46:35,640 --> 01:46:37,840
Speaker 3: they had it down to two with about five six

2300
01:46:37,960 --> 01:46:41,080
Speaker 3: minutes left, which was a miracle considering Bizjack and Michael

2301
01:46:41,240 --> 01:46:44,200
Speaker 3: Jaia hadn't done a ton of scoring. And then Yukon

2302
01:46:44,479 --> 01:46:46,960
Speaker 3: just an absolute haymaker. You blinked and it was a

2303
01:46:47,720 --> 01:46:49,200
Speaker 3: ten oh run and that was it.

2304
01:46:50,240 --> 01:46:52,320
Speaker 1: All right. We can also tell you college basketball coming

2305
01:46:52,400 --> 01:46:55,759
Speaker 1: up this weekend. Perdue at Iowa Saturday, Indiana at Illinois

2306
01:46:55,840 --> 01:46:58,479
Speaker 1: on Sunday, James, You're all fired up and locked in

2307
01:46:58,600 --> 01:46:59,360
Speaker 1: for that one, right.

2308
01:47:00,560 --> 01:47:02,800
Speaker 2: Illinois on I believe a two game skid right now.

2309
01:47:03,000 --> 01:47:06,040
Speaker 2: Indiana's been playing better basketball as of late. And as

2310
01:47:06,120 --> 01:47:07,920
Speaker 2: much as I love where I live, I got a

2311
01:47:08,000 --> 01:47:09,599
Speaker 2: roll with the school I got the degree from.

2312
01:47:09,920 --> 01:47:14,759
Speaker 1: All right. We also have Olympic action later on today. Yesterday,

2313
01:47:14,800 --> 01:47:18,160
Speaker 1: speed skater Jordan stoles Win's golden one thousand meters, Ryan

2314
01:47:18,320 --> 01:47:22,040
Speaker 1: Coughan Siegel got a silver in the Super g Ryan

2315
01:47:22,120 --> 01:47:25,120
Speaker 1: Cochran Siegul, I should say, And then later on today,

2316
01:47:25,120 --> 01:47:27,880
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to men's ice hockey just after three

2317
01:47:27,920 --> 01:47:30,400
Speaker 1: o'clock against Latvia. Hopefully that one will be in the

2318
01:47:30,439 --> 01:47:31,719
Speaker 1: bag by the end of the first period.

2319
01:47:31,840 --> 01:47:34,880
Speaker 3: So I'm unfamiliar. Does Lotvia have NHL players?

2320
01:47:35,479 --> 01:47:37,360
Speaker 1: I think they might have one, but I'll have to

2321
01:47:37,400 --> 01:47:39,439
Speaker 1: go back and double check. I looked at the rosters

2322
01:47:39,479 --> 01:47:42,080
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, but like Italy yesterday, they're

2323
01:47:42,080 --> 01:47:46,320
Speaker 1: playing with one fringe NHL guy and they were tied

2324
01:47:46,400 --> 01:47:49,280
Speaker 1: up about almost halfway through the game with Sweden.

2325
01:47:49,400 --> 01:47:52,240
Speaker 3: And we're talking like, flip a coin USA Canada, Like

2326
01:47:52,360 --> 01:47:53,599
Speaker 3: is it that even? Or is Canada?

2327
01:47:54,800 --> 01:47:56,720
Speaker 1: I looked at the odds last night. My wife was

2328
01:47:56,760 --> 01:48:00,760
Speaker 1: asking me about Canada is the favorite fall by team

2329
01:48:00,840 --> 01:48:04,120
Speaker 1: USA and then Sweden. Those are the top three and

2330
01:48:04,200 --> 01:48:07,240
Speaker 1: then there's a big drop off after that. So we'll

2331
01:48:07,720 --> 01:48:10,120
Speaker 1: see that start a little bit later on today. And

2332
01:48:10,160 --> 01:48:13,479
Speaker 1: we got men's and women's short track speed skating to

2333
01:48:13,560 --> 01:48:16,360
Speaker 1: look forward to later on tonight too. And I know

2334
01:48:16,439 --> 01:48:19,200
Speaker 1: you're all in on curling. There's more curling today men's curly.

2335
01:48:19,280 --> 01:48:19,479
Speaker 5: Yeah.

2336
01:48:19,520 --> 01:48:21,639
Speaker 3: Shout out to the woman Cory. Yeah, yeah, she won

2337
01:48:22,600 --> 01:48:25,120
Speaker 3: this morning. I have been loving the speed skating and

2338
01:48:25,240 --> 01:48:29,200
Speaker 3: I thought I saw today there's something called the luge relay.

2339
01:48:30,640 --> 01:48:33,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm never I don't know anything about louse relay.

2340
01:48:34,320 --> 01:48:37,080
Speaker 3: Like, are we literally passing a baton here? I want

2341
01:48:37,120 --> 01:48:37,519
Speaker 3: to lose?

2342
01:48:37,760 --> 01:48:38,240
Speaker 9: Like what?

2343
01:48:38,640 --> 01:48:41,240
Speaker 1: I just know that Mark now has nine guys stacked

2344
01:48:41,280 --> 01:48:43,679
Speaker 1: up on a lose for his relay?

2345
01:48:43,760 --> 01:48:45,479
Speaker 3: Marked, can you provide some video of this?

2346
01:48:45,960 --> 01:48:47,320
Speaker 6: I mean, I can look for it. We can go

2347
01:48:47,360 --> 01:48:49,400
Speaker 6: practice out in the parking lot afterwards if you wow.

2348
01:48:49,560 --> 01:48:51,080
Speaker 3: I'm not trying to get arrested here by.

2349
01:48:50,960 --> 01:48:59,280
Speaker 6: IMPD practicing for twenty thirty officer getting ready. That says

2350
01:48:59,320 --> 01:49:02,759
Speaker 6: that Colts have new defensive hitter and arounds still line

2351
01:49:02,920 --> 01:49:04,479
Speaker 6: coach Marion Hobby.

2352
01:49:04,640 --> 01:49:08,280
Speaker 3: He's got some history with lou and Rumo coming over

2353
01:49:08,320 --> 01:49:12,000
Speaker 3: from Cincinnati. We'll see about the Trey Hendrickson free agency

2354
01:49:12,160 --> 01:49:15,040
Speaker 3: and all of that, but that was probably the biggest

2355
01:49:15,600 --> 01:49:18,439
Speaker 3: coaching name that the Colts have had to replay so far.

2356
01:49:18,520 --> 01:49:19,840
Speaker 3: It looks like they're going to have a ton of

2357
01:49:19,920 --> 01:49:22,080
Speaker 3: retention on their coaching staff. I do want to mention

2358
01:49:22,200 --> 01:49:23,759
Speaker 3: this real quick. As far as coaches.

2359
01:49:24,000 --> 01:49:28,599
Speaker 2: Brian Brydon, the quality control coach, one of the quality

2360
01:49:28,640 --> 01:49:31,040
Speaker 2: control coaches for the Colts and had worked with the

2361
01:49:31,040 --> 01:49:33,760
Speaker 2: wide receivers pretty closely as well with Reggie Wayne. I

2362
01:49:33,800 --> 01:49:35,960
Speaker 2: think Reggie actually broke the news the other day on

2363
01:49:36,040 --> 01:49:40,160
Speaker 2: social media that Brian is off to Stanford to work

2364
01:49:40,240 --> 01:49:43,080
Speaker 2: with their players. I believe with the wide receiver job there,

2365
01:49:43,280 --> 01:49:47,000
Speaker 2: so they'll be joined us on Andrew. Yeah, maybe Andrew

2366
01:49:47,080 --> 01:49:49,519
Speaker 2: luck coaching from the from the Colts. All right, get

2367
01:49:49,560 --> 01:49:51,200
Speaker 2: your home, get your own staff.

2368
01:49:51,240 --> 01:49:52,760
Speaker 3: Anything else you guys want to throw him before we

2369
01:49:52,760 --> 01:49:54,400
Speaker 3: had to break. Yeah, I thought it was cool. See

2370
01:49:54,439 --> 01:49:56,200
Speaker 3: next year, Purdue looks like they're going to open up

2371
01:49:56,200 --> 01:50:00,240
Speaker 3: with Gonzaga. On the college basketball front, it'll be part

2372
01:50:00,320 --> 01:50:02,920
Speaker 3: of a game out I think is out in Vegas.

2373
01:50:03,120 --> 01:50:05,400
Speaker 3: Ucla and Arizona would be the opposite game. I think

2374
01:50:05,400 --> 01:50:07,040
Speaker 3: they're just singular games. I don't think it's like a

2375
01:50:07,120 --> 01:50:10,719
Speaker 3: four team bracket there. But you'll Purdue has always challenged

2376
01:50:10,760 --> 01:50:12,920
Speaker 3: himself in the non conference. I think college basketball needs

2377
01:50:12,920 --> 01:50:14,320
Speaker 3: to do a better job of the start of the

2378
01:50:14,400 --> 01:50:18,400
Speaker 3: season trying to build that up, and one lingering thing

2379
01:50:18,479 --> 01:50:21,720
Speaker 3: for Purdue obviously people only care about the rest of

2380
01:50:21,760 --> 01:50:23,679
Speaker 3: this season and trying to get back here to Lucasolo

2381
01:50:23,760 --> 01:50:26,479
Speaker 3: Stadium for the final four. But I do think there

2382
01:50:26,560 --> 01:50:29,560
Speaker 3: is a question of if Oscar Kluff could get a

2383
01:50:29,720 --> 01:50:34,040
Speaker 3: sixth year, which would be big certainly literally and figuratively

2384
01:50:34,160 --> 01:50:37,240
Speaker 3: for Purdue when you consider the eligibility running out for

2385
01:50:37,320 --> 01:50:40,439
Speaker 3: drakeoffmin Ran, Braden Smith, and Fletcher Lawyer. So that would

2386
01:50:40,439 --> 01:50:43,480
Speaker 3: be something to keep an eye on here for Perdue.

2387
01:50:43,320 --> 01:50:44,800
Speaker 1: I have the gold look up what I saw the

2388
01:50:44,880 --> 01:50:47,000
Speaker 1: other day as some player that I'd never heard of

2389
01:50:47,200 --> 01:50:51,400
Speaker 1: was petitioning for a ninth year because of all kinds

2390
01:50:51,400 --> 01:50:54,400
Speaker 1: of injuries and COVID and transfer and things like that.

2391
01:50:54,800 --> 01:50:57,320
Speaker 1: It was crazy. Can you imagine? Just hang it up, brother,

2392
01:50:57,479 --> 01:50:59,639
Speaker 1: it's time all right. Coming up in a moment, we'll

2393
01:50:59,840 --> 01:51:01,760
Speaker 1: talk more about some of the crazy stories going on

2394
01:51:01,880 --> 01:51:05,280
Speaker 1: in sports. We have a championship to award a little

2395
01:51:05,280 --> 01:51:07,160
Speaker 1: bit later on today towards the end of the show.

2396
01:51:07,720 --> 01:51:09,320
Speaker 1: Lots of good stuff. We'll check in on the text

2397
01:51:09,400 --> 01:51:11,840

Speaker 3: Fan she cat Face.

2400
01:51:19,280 --> 01:51:21,920
Speaker 10: You were listening to the Fan Morning Show on Sports

2403
01:51:28,880 --> 01:51:32,240
Speaker 1: Guys, Good morning, as we head down the last thirty

2404
01:51:32,280 --> 01:51:33,960
Speaker 1: minutes of the program here at ninety three five one

01:51:34,000 --> 01:51:35,920
Speaker 1: oh seven to five the fan. We've got a little

2406
01:51:36,200 --> 01:51:38,840
Speaker 1: championship announcement coming up at about fifteen minutes or so.

2407
01:51:39,600 --> 01:51:42,120
Speaker 1: In the meantime, gentlemen, yesterday we were talking about the

2408
01:51:42,520 --> 01:51:49,679
Speaker 1: Norwegian Olympic athlete who, in one of his post event

2409
01:51:50,160 --> 01:51:53,400
Speaker 1: press conferences after winning a medal, broke down and said

2410
01:51:53,400 --> 01:51:55,160
Speaker 1: he can't think of anything else but just that he

2411
01:51:55,400 --> 01:51:57,680
Speaker 1: cheated on his girlfriend and he wants her back and

2412
01:51:57,800 --> 01:52:00,280
Speaker 1: that's all he's concerned with right now. We talked about

2413
01:52:00,320 --> 01:52:03,360
Speaker 1: that and how crazy it is. The girlfriend responded, yesterday,

2414
01:52:03,439 --> 01:52:04,599
Speaker 1: did you see this, James Boyd?

2415
01:52:05,800 --> 01:52:09,160
Speaker 3: I saw this and I kept scrolling, but indulge me.

2416
01:52:09,439 --> 01:52:13,479
Speaker 1: Sterla Lagrid's ex girlfriend responds after he publicly admitted to

2417
01:52:14,000 --> 01:52:17,759
Speaker 1: cheating on her. She said, quote, it's hard to forgive,

2418
01:52:17,920 --> 01:52:20,160
Speaker 1: even after a declaration of love in front of the

2419
01:52:20,200 --> 01:52:22,840
Speaker 1: whole world. I did not choose to end up in

2420
01:52:22,920 --> 01:52:24,840
Speaker 1: this situation. It hurts to have to be in it.

2421
01:52:25,320 --> 01:52:29,719
Speaker 1: We have been in contact and she left it pretty

2422
01:52:29,800 --> 01:52:32,360
Speaker 1: much open. He is aware of my views on this.

2423
01:52:33,360 --> 01:52:35,599
Speaker 3: Well, to wrap this up, he's a moron.

2424
01:52:35,920 --> 01:52:40,160
Speaker 2: She's right, and yeah, I don't know why he would

2425
01:52:40,320 --> 01:52:42,360
Speaker 2: even admit to something on that stage like that. No

2426
01:52:42,479 --> 01:52:47,000
Speaker 2: sympathy for him, because accidents happened, but not in that manner.

2427
01:52:47,320 --> 01:52:49,000
Speaker 2: He gave me the Birds and Beast talk yesterday, so

2428
01:52:49,080 --> 01:52:50,559
Speaker 2: I don't think it's as simple as has he's making

2429
01:52:50,600 --> 01:52:50,920
Speaker 2: the same.

2430
01:52:51,240 --> 01:52:52,479
Speaker 6: There could be some accidents in that.

2431
01:52:52,520 --> 01:52:54,640
Speaker 3: So then we hear some Jeff audio a little bit

2432
01:52:54,680 --> 01:52:58,960
Speaker 3: earlier about maybe oh, Kevin, Oh, why there the cheating interaction?

2433
01:52:59,160 --> 01:52:59,800
Speaker 1: Why there?

2434
01:53:00,080 --> 01:53:02,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just you said it, not me.

2435
01:53:02,240 --> 01:53:04,519
Speaker 1: I'm just having I'll get you excited here. No daddy,

2436
01:53:04,600 --> 01:53:08,960
Speaker 1: no daddy now clear editing between those two things sound

2437
01:53:08,960 --> 01:53:11,400
Speaker 1: pretty smooth to me. It was a clear edit. Mark.

2438
01:53:11,479 --> 01:53:13,560
Speaker 3: I know you wanted to get into this today, but

2439
01:53:14,080 --> 01:53:14,680
Speaker 3: I think you got some.

2440
01:53:14,720 --> 01:53:17,360
Speaker 6: Questions for us, always, always and forever.

2441
01:53:17,479 --> 01:53:18,559
Speaker 3: I appreciate that rubbing.

2442
01:53:18,720 --> 01:53:19,920
Speaker 10: He's got questions.

2443
01:53:20,080 --> 01:53:20,720
Speaker 1: How about a game?

2444
01:53:21,000 --> 01:53:22,320
Speaker 10: They have got answers.

2445
01:53:22,520 --> 01:53:24,559
Speaker 1: Hey, I'm more of a you know, a corn hole

2446
01:53:24,640 --> 01:53:25,680
Speaker 1: man myself.

2447
01:53:25,720 --> 01:53:29,679

Speaker 3: That hands als so hot right now and.

2449
01:53:32,280 --> 01:53:35,439
Speaker 10: Everything in between. You have seen a foot with four

2450
01:53:35,479 --> 01:53:38,400
Speaker 10: toes each time to get a glimpse into the mind

2451
01:53:38,479 --> 01:53:42,160
Speaker 10: of Mark Dydon, stop that you're scaring me each time.

2452
01:53:42,280 --> 01:53:45,439
Speaker 3: For I gotta know, Okay, you do punk, I wrote

2453
01:53:45,479 --> 01:53:51,719
Speaker 3: a good, clean fight. Let's get it off, all right, boys.

2454
01:53:51,720 --> 01:53:53,720
Speaker 6: So we're talking Olympics, we might as well stay there.

2455
01:53:53,960 --> 01:53:55,360
Speaker 3: Uh Winter Olympics sport.

2456
01:53:55,520 --> 01:53:58,960
Speaker 6: If I gave you four years to train for that

2457
01:53:59,080 --> 01:54:01,080
Speaker 6: in the twenty thirty Olympics, you think you could qualify

2458
01:54:01,200 --> 01:54:05,120
Speaker 6: for well, I'm not qualifying for anything years, but it

2459
01:54:05,200 --> 01:54:07,160
Speaker 6: would be like I'm taking that on. I think I

2460
01:54:07,200 --> 01:54:07,559
Speaker 6: have a chain.

2461
01:54:07,640 --> 01:54:10,400
Speaker 2: I'll probably roll with curling because it's the safest of

2462
01:54:10,560 --> 01:54:15,320
Speaker 2: the winter sports, because anything that involves ski snowboarding.

2463
01:54:15,320 --> 01:54:18,360
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be in the hospital for a very long time.

2464
01:54:18,840 --> 01:54:21,160
Speaker 3: I feel like curling is the easy answer. But I

2465
01:54:21,280 --> 01:54:27,400
Speaker 3: am kind of fascinated by the luge, skeleton, bob sled, okay,

2466
01:54:27,479 --> 01:54:29,920
Speaker 3: angle to it now. I think there's different body types

2467
01:54:30,280 --> 01:54:32,080
Speaker 3: for all three, Like bob slid. I think there is

2468
01:54:32,160 --> 01:54:34,440
Speaker 3: like a track element to it. There is a obviously

2469
01:54:34,480 --> 01:54:36,920
Speaker 3: a strength element to it, pushing the sled, you know

2470
01:54:37,000 --> 01:54:39,080
Speaker 3: there at the start. But and I don't know, may

2471
01:54:39,200 --> 01:54:41,680
Speaker 3: that's a cool runnings to make coming out, But yeah,

2472
01:54:41,760 --> 01:54:43,120
Speaker 3: I mean it is probably curling.

2473
01:54:44,200 --> 01:54:46,240
Speaker 6: I mean I'm taking the Bob sled only because there's

2474
01:54:46,240 --> 01:54:48,080
Speaker 6: three other guys. I'm like, I could be the weak Lincoln.

2475
01:54:48,120 --> 01:54:49,440
Speaker 6: I think I'd still be all right.

2476
01:54:49,760 --> 01:54:52,440
Speaker 1: Well, Mark, I'm gonna be eight hundred and seventy two

2477
01:54:52,760 --> 01:54:55,240
Speaker 1: in twenty thirty. What would you like me to compete in?

2478
01:54:56,080 --> 01:54:58,560
Speaker 6: There's gotta be some geriatric jump on it or something.

2479
01:54:58,680 --> 01:55:00,640
Speaker 1: I'll jump on a on a loge.

2480
01:55:01,280 --> 01:55:04,480
Speaker 6: Oh boy, you better update the life insurance.

2481
01:55:04,520 --> 01:55:07,080
Speaker 1: I would say, Well, I mean I got used to

2482
01:55:07,160 --> 01:55:09,800
Speaker 1: going downhill fast on a bike all those years ago.

2483
01:55:09,840 --> 01:55:10,640
Speaker 1: I don't mind speed.

2484
01:55:12,040 --> 01:55:16,000
Speaker 6: Try that, Okay, all right, we've seen the Hall of

2485
01:55:16,080 --> 01:55:19,800
Speaker 6: Fame votes not going in favor of Reggie Wayne, and

2486
01:55:19,880 --> 01:55:22,160
Speaker 6: we've seen Annamarian Vine Terry is going to go in

2487
01:55:22,400 --> 01:55:23,240
Speaker 6: in twenty twenty six.

2488
01:55:23,640 --> 01:55:25,600
Speaker 3: Who is the next Colts player that will get.

2489
01:55:25,520 --> 01:55:28,480
Speaker 6: The Canton invite? Is it Wayne or someone else?

2490
01:55:29,840 --> 01:55:33,960
Speaker 3: That's a good question. Is Robert mathis in? I would

2491
01:55:34,000 --> 01:55:37,080
Speaker 3: say it'll be Frank Gore. You know, I get that

2492
01:55:37,120 --> 01:55:38,720
Speaker 3: you only played here for a couple of years, But

2493
01:55:39,440 --> 01:55:41,160
Speaker 3: if I'm not mistaken, I think we have my chapel.

2494
01:55:41,240 --> 01:55:43,880
Speaker 3: On last week he said that Gore got to the

2495
01:55:43,960 --> 01:55:46,480
Speaker 3: top ten, and I just think running back resumes will

2496
01:55:46,560 --> 01:55:50,240
Speaker 3: age better than wide receiver resumes given with how the

2497
01:55:50,360 --> 01:55:54,440
Speaker 3: nature of the NFL is played. So yeah, Mark, I

2498
01:55:54,480 --> 01:55:56,120
Speaker 3: would say Frank Gore, if you want to go with

2499
01:55:56,200 --> 01:55:58,360
Speaker 3: traditional Colt, you know, we probably don't think of Gore

2500
01:55:58,480 --> 01:56:03,920
Speaker 3: like that, then I'm probably going math as myself. Now,

2501
01:56:04,000 --> 01:56:07,560
Speaker 3: Maths didn't make the final fifteen, right, I don't believe so,

2502
01:56:07,880 --> 01:56:10,960
Speaker 3: But looking at his resume, I think he has a

2503
01:56:11,000 --> 01:56:15,280
Speaker 3: deserving camp in case more than most. But I feel

2504
01:56:15,280 --> 01:56:18,360
Speaker 3: like I've got to be Wayne, right, Yeah, but I

2505
01:56:18,440 --> 01:56:19,960
Speaker 3: guess I was trying to be a little different from

2506
01:56:19,960 --> 01:56:20,320
Speaker 3: the crowd.

2507
01:56:20,600 --> 01:56:25,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, Frank Gore is number three all time career rushing

2508
01:56:25,480 --> 01:56:29,000
Speaker 1: yards in the National Football League and now he played

2509
01:56:29,000 --> 01:56:32,080
Speaker 1: for a million years, but so well respected around the

2510
01:56:32,160 --> 01:56:34,880
Speaker 1: league and putting up those kind of numbers. I mean

2511
01:56:34,920 --> 01:56:36,640
Speaker 1: the only two in front of him are Emmett Smith

2512
01:56:36,680 --> 01:56:37,480
Speaker 1: and Walter Payton.

2513
01:56:37,760 --> 01:56:39,800
Speaker 3: See, I think playing for the million years at that

2514
01:56:39,880 --> 01:56:42,640
Speaker 3: position as a compliment, I do take people view it

2515
01:56:42,720 --> 01:56:44,960
Speaker 3: negative league Like Frank Gord didn't have the star study

2516
01:56:44,960 --> 01:56:47,120
Speaker 3: of years. He was never a top three at his position,

2517
01:56:47,280 --> 01:56:51,280
Speaker 3: But to me, longevity at running back is incredible. Yeah,

2518
01:56:51,480 --> 01:56:53,360
Speaker 3: and I mean how many what did he overcome an

2519
01:56:53,400 --> 01:56:56,680
Speaker 3: ACL in college and then maybe two acls in college

2520
01:56:56,760 --> 01:56:59,280
Speaker 3: or an ACL early in his NFL career as well.

2521
01:56:59,640 --> 01:57:02,280
Speaker 1: Also point out that emittt Smith, who's on top average

2522
01:57:02,320 --> 01:57:04,840
Speaker 1: four point two yards of carry, Walter Payton was second

2523
01:57:04,960 --> 01:57:07,840
Speaker 1: with four point four yards per carry, Frank Gore four

2524
01:57:07,880 --> 01:57:10,680
Speaker 1: point three yards per carry. That's pretty good you take

2525
01:57:10,760 --> 01:57:13,080
Speaker 1: that for fifteen years when you have four point three

2526
01:57:13,520 --> 01:57:14,520
Speaker 1: for sure? Yeah.

2527
01:57:15,000 --> 01:57:17,080
Speaker 6: Are we here on the league about teams like the

2528
01:57:17,120 --> 01:57:19,560
Speaker 6: Seahawks and Rams willing to make the tough decisions for

2529
01:57:19,640 --> 01:57:22,680
Speaker 6: the greater good and reaping the benefits of being well

2530
01:57:22,800 --> 01:57:26,240
Speaker 6: run organizations from the top on down? Do you think

2531
01:57:26,280 --> 01:57:29,400
Speaker 6: the Colts are viewed in league circles look like that

2532
01:57:29,560 --> 01:57:31,520
Speaker 6: as far as optics is concerned.

2533
01:57:32,920 --> 01:57:37,160
Speaker 1: Hm, Kevin, You've been around that team for a long time.

2534
01:57:37,640 --> 01:57:40,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think league wide, I think they're

2535
01:57:40,480 --> 01:57:44,000
Speaker 3: viewed in a fine light. I you know, I think

2536
01:57:44,040 --> 01:57:46,080
Speaker 3: at times there's maybe a little bit of a misconception

2537
01:57:46,200 --> 01:57:49,760
Speaker 3: on like the Chris ballad resume league wide. I don't know,

2538
01:57:49,840 --> 01:57:51,840
Speaker 3: maybe you start to hear more of the chatter of like,

2539
01:57:51,960 --> 01:57:55,400
Speaker 3: really he's getting a tenth crack at it, you know,

2540
01:57:55,480 --> 01:57:57,000
Speaker 3: here in our own little bubble. I go back to

2541
01:57:58,040 --> 01:57:59,440
Speaker 3: you know, we had a listener reach out about the

2542
01:57:59,480 --> 01:58:02,000
Speaker 3: zoobots trade last week, and you know, there are some

2543
01:58:02,120 --> 01:58:04,240
Speaker 3: questions about the trade. Obviously we've gotten into the pick

2544
01:58:04,360 --> 01:58:07,600
Speaker 3: debate and all of that, and the listeners simply just said,

2545
01:58:08,560 --> 01:58:10,720
Speaker 3: unlike the Colts, the Pacers have earned my trust when

2546
01:58:10,720 --> 01:58:11,880
Speaker 3: it comes to these moves.

2547
01:58:13,320 --> 01:58:13,640
Speaker 4: M M.

2548
01:58:13,960 --> 01:58:16,960
Speaker 3: And I think that pretty much sums it up quite well.

2549
01:58:17,480 --> 01:58:19,480
Speaker 3: If you look at the Kevin Pritchard, it's not like

2550
01:58:19,520 --> 01:58:21,960
Speaker 3: Pritchard's hit on a bunch of first round picks, but

2551
01:58:22,120 --> 01:58:25,120
Speaker 3: yet he's built the championship team without a lot of that.

2552
01:58:27,400 --> 01:58:31,080
Speaker 2: I would say I would agree with Kevin on that one.

2553
01:58:31,360 --> 01:58:33,480
Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's hard for me to look at

2554
01:58:33,520 --> 01:58:35,840
Speaker 2: the Colts in any other light quite frankly.

2555
01:58:35,720 --> 01:58:39,320
Speaker 3: Like, I don't think they're this massive league wide dysfunction. Yeah,

2556
01:58:39,680 --> 01:58:41,120
Speaker 3: you know, it's not like they have a ton of

2557
01:58:41,720 --> 01:58:44,200
Speaker 3: off the field issues. I just think the luster's gone.

2558
01:58:44,680 --> 01:58:47,920
Speaker 3: Like honestly, they're probably just an afterthought. Yeah, the juju

2559
01:58:48,000 --> 01:58:49,840
Speaker 3: and the shimmer no longer there.

2560
01:58:50,080 --> 01:58:51,880
Speaker 6: Do you think it's a bit but like when they

2561
01:58:52,040 --> 01:58:54,600
Speaker 6: you know, if you if you pulled an NFL fan

2562
01:58:54,720 --> 01:58:56,840
Speaker 6: outside of like Indianapolis and all that stuff, Like you're like,

2563
01:58:57,000 --> 01:58:58,240
Speaker 6: what do you know about the Colts, don't you think

2564
01:58:58,240 --> 01:59:00,800
Speaker 6: they say, hiring Jeff Saturday and bring Philip Rivers over

2565
01:59:00,960 --> 01:59:02,880
Speaker 6: time were kind of like no other franchises doing that.

2566
01:59:03,200 --> 01:59:07,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think there is. Yeah, for a general NFL fan. Yeah,

2567
01:59:07,480 --> 01:59:09,560
Speaker 2: the headlining moves would be clownish.

2568
01:59:09,640 --> 01:59:11,960
Speaker 3: By the way, when she said Shimmer, carl Orsa Gordon

2569
01:59:12,040 --> 01:59:14,320
Speaker 3: the press conference and she said Juju first and then Shimmer,

2570
01:59:14,440 --> 01:59:17,600
Speaker 3: I thought Juju Brents had changed his last name Juju Shimmer.

2571
01:59:17,760 --> 01:59:19,160
Speaker 3: I swear that was my first thought.

2572
01:59:19,640 --> 01:59:24,680
Speaker 8: I told her unequivocally, I have not lost my shimmer,

2573
01:59:24,960 --> 01:59:27,480
Speaker 8: juju or confidence or whatever you want to say it is.

2574
01:59:28,240 --> 01:59:30,280
Speaker 3: I got to pull that out more. Yeah, I think

2575
01:59:30,360 --> 01:59:32,680
Speaker 3: that that you hit us say that on Valentine's Day

2576
01:59:32,720 --> 01:59:33,160
Speaker 3: to Maddie.

2577
01:59:34,080 --> 01:59:37,600
Speaker 1: You still have your juju. I still tell missus Rickards,

2578
01:59:37,600 --> 01:59:39,480
Speaker 1: she's the most beautiful woman I've ever met. Every day

2579
01:59:40,320 --> 01:59:42,080
Speaker 1: and every single day. And he takes some notes from

2580
01:59:42,120 --> 01:59:44,320
Speaker 1: the boss man, Well, I make plenty of missteps to

2581
01:59:44,520 --> 01:59:48,400
Speaker 1: believe me, Mark, I think that that kept on. I

2582
01:59:48,400 --> 01:59:51,200
Speaker 1: think in league circles they're kind of like an afterthought.

2583
01:59:51,360 --> 01:59:53,400
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody thinks that they're terrible, But I

2584
01:59:53,400 --> 01:59:55,840
Speaker 1: don't think anybody thinks they're any close to elite either.

2585
01:59:56,000 --> 01:59:58,920
Speaker 1: They're just they're in a legit NFL football team, and

2586
01:59:58,960 --> 01:59:59,360
Speaker 1: that's about it.

2587
01:59:59,480 --> 02:00:02,440
Speaker 6: I tend to right, let's put the sports discussion to

2588
02:00:02,520 --> 02:00:06,160
Speaker 6: the side. Your current biggest pet peeve is what if

2589
02:00:06,200 --> 02:00:07,560
Speaker 6: you want to simmer on that for a minute. My

2590
02:00:07,640 --> 02:00:09,760
Speaker 6: biggest one is the people that feel the need to

2591
02:00:09,880 --> 02:00:11,720
Speaker 6: back into every parking spot that ever.

2592
02:00:11,720 --> 02:00:14,040
Speaker 3: Existed, Like, can you get the hell out of the

2593
02:00:14,120 --> 02:00:14,600
Speaker 3: way just.

2594
02:00:14,680 --> 02:00:17,360
Speaker 6: When they get past you, Like it's not like you're

2595
02:00:17,360 --> 02:00:19,320
Speaker 6: turning on your blinker. They go past, like, oh the

2596
02:00:19,400 --> 02:00:22,280
Speaker 6: spots for me, and then they start backing and like, just.

2597
02:00:22,440 --> 02:00:23,800
Speaker 3: Just pull in like a normal human.

2598
02:00:23,800 --> 02:00:26,240
Speaker 6: Who are you trying to impress? I always got review cameras.

2599
02:00:26,280 --> 02:00:33,040
Speaker 6: Now it's not impressive, Bud. What wow, Let me get

2600
02:00:33,040 --> 02:00:33,880
Speaker 6: to my errands done.

2601
02:00:34,000 --> 02:00:37,000
Speaker 1: Those those extra five seconds are going to destroy your days.

2602
02:00:37,040 --> 02:00:39,120
Speaker 6: Not all these guys that think they can back in

2603
02:00:39,200 --> 02:00:41,560
Speaker 6: and then they do eighteen point turns and everything like that, Like.

2604
02:00:41,800 --> 02:00:43,520
Speaker 3: You know, it's not a very good parallel parker. It

2605
02:00:43,560 --> 02:00:45,720
Speaker 3: sounds like you should listen to my father, a former

2606
02:00:45,760 --> 02:00:46,880
Speaker 3: Traverse head teacher.

2607
02:00:47,520 --> 02:00:48,760
Speaker 1: Maybe you should get him a session.

2608
02:00:49,560 --> 02:00:50,480
Speaker 12: I'll go, I'll go.

2609
02:00:50,960 --> 02:00:51,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay.

2610
02:00:51,800 --> 02:00:54,400
Speaker 2: So my my biggest pet peeve to keep it sports

2611
02:00:54,440 --> 02:00:57,400
Speaker 2: related will probably be at these high school games when

2612
02:00:57,400 --> 02:01:01,120
Speaker 2: people just harass the refs because homise you, I would

2613
02:01:01,200 --> 02:01:04,000
Speaker 2: never ref your kids like I don't think people realize.

2614
02:01:04,120 --> 02:01:05,560
Speaker 2: And there's probably a bunch of stats on and I'm

2615
02:01:05,560 --> 02:01:06,880
Speaker 2: sure Kyle Netton Rips did a story on it.

2616
02:01:07,000 --> 02:01:08,480
Speaker 3: I have as well years ago.

2617
02:01:08,680 --> 02:01:12,880
Speaker 2: But the amount of refs who continue to get older

2618
02:01:13,000 --> 02:01:15,600
Speaker 2: but they're not being replenished is largely due to the

2619
02:01:15,640 --> 02:01:19,000
Speaker 2: harassment they get from these parents people at games. And

2620
02:01:19,120 --> 02:01:21,680
Speaker 2: so I don't want to like be dramatic like the

2621
02:01:21,720 --> 02:01:23,520
Speaker 2: world is ending, but if I look up in twenty

2622
02:01:23,600 --> 02:01:26,560
Speaker 2: years and these big Friday night games are not being

2623
02:01:26,600 --> 02:01:28,720
Speaker 2: played on Friday nights anymore because we don't have enough refs,

2624
02:01:29,200 --> 02:01:29,800
Speaker 2: that's your.

2625
02:01:29,760 --> 02:01:31,080
Speaker 3: Fault, like calm down.

2626
02:01:31,240 --> 02:01:33,040
Speaker 2: And the last all I have on this is, of

2627
02:01:33,120 --> 02:01:36,160
Speaker 2: all the players I've seen play this year at the

2628
02:01:36,240 --> 02:01:39,360
Speaker 2: high school level, is it wrong for me to say

2629
02:01:39,400 --> 02:01:41,040
Speaker 2: none of them are going to the NBA. I mean

2630
02:01:41,120 --> 02:01:44,320
Speaker 2: some of them might possibly, but they're not locks. So

2631
02:01:44,800 --> 02:01:47,240
Speaker 2: enjoy this because for ninety nine point nine percent of

2632
02:01:47,280 --> 02:01:49,280
Speaker 2: you all your kids are going to get is this

2633
02:01:49,480 --> 02:01:51,400
Speaker 2: and maybe a couple of years in college. So I

2634
02:01:51,440 --> 02:01:54,280
Speaker 2: think the delusion is crazy a little bit at that.

2635
02:01:55,360 --> 02:01:57,640
Speaker 3: Boy I had nod in my head at all that,

2636
02:01:57,800 --> 02:02:03,760
Speaker 3: James Boyd. I don't know when the snow starts to melt.

2637
02:02:05,080 --> 02:02:08,600
Speaker 3: Obviously it has to melt to go somewhere, science experiment here.

2638
02:02:09,160 --> 02:02:14,800
Speaker 3: But I hate the slushy, dirty nature that just is

2639
02:02:14,920 --> 02:02:17,000
Speaker 3: everywhere right now. I feel like I'm just stepping in.

2640
02:02:17,200 --> 02:02:20,240
Speaker 3: You know what a bunch of Max Bowen number two's

2641
02:02:20,280 --> 02:02:21,160
Speaker 3: I'm stepping.

2642
02:02:20,880 --> 02:02:21,360
Speaker 6: In right now?

2643
02:02:24,320 --> 02:02:27,600
Speaker 1: Max taking us straight there now, He's good, he's in school.

2644
02:02:27,920 --> 02:02:28,440
Speaker 3: Right's fine.

2645
02:02:29,080 --> 02:02:31,240
Speaker 1: Mark, I'm gonna go back to the parking lot. This

2646
02:02:31,360 --> 02:02:35,840
Speaker 1: has always annoyed me, the people who will circle the

2647
02:02:36,000 --> 02:02:39,760
Speaker 1: different aisles in parking lots for five minutes to get

2648
02:02:39,800 --> 02:02:42,040
Speaker 1: a spot that's two spots closer than the one that

2649
02:02:42,080 --> 02:02:47,200
Speaker 1: could originally got. I don't understand that it's an extra ten.

2650
02:02:47,160 --> 02:02:49,800
Speaker 3: Feet to walk you and Mark got some parking lot issues.

2651
02:02:49,920 --> 02:02:52,720
Speaker 1: No, I just don't understand why people will circle and

2652
02:02:52,760 --> 02:02:55,320
Speaker 1: circle and circle to get fifteen feet closer to the building.

2653
02:02:55,480 --> 02:02:58,160
Speaker 6: The other one is the people that clearly see you're

2654
02:02:58,160 --> 02:03:00,080
Speaker 6: waiting for a parking spot that they're getting into and

2655
02:03:00,160 --> 02:03:02,280
Speaker 6: they just sit in their car for minutes on end, like.

2656
02:03:02,360 --> 02:03:02,880
Speaker 3: You know what, I'm here?

2657
02:03:03,440 --> 02:03:10,680
Speaker 1: Back out, dude, baby? Have you backed? Have you ever

2658
02:03:10,760 --> 02:03:11,560
Speaker 1: backed into a spot?

2659
02:03:11,960 --> 02:03:14,480
Speaker 6: I think I have, only I think I have, But

2660
02:03:14,560 --> 02:03:16,560
Speaker 6: I also made sure I had no one waiting for

2661
02:03:16,760 --> 02:03:17,240
Speaker 6: me to do it.

2662
02:03:18,040 --> 02:03:21,600
Speaker 2: Fair enough, Mark, I think you're a hater on that one,

2663
02:03:21,680 --> 02:03:23,280
Speaker 2: but hey, we all got to hate something.

2664
02:03:23,520 --> 02:03:25,640
Speaker 6: I gotta back in, I gotta put my grocery, get

2665
02:03:25,680 --> 02:03:28,040
Speaker 6: the hell out of my way, I.

2666
02:03:28,040 --> 02:03:31,080
Speaker 2: Would say one real quick one that bothers me whenever

2667
02:03:31,120 --> 02:03:33,480
Speaker 2: I go home and watch stuff with my family. They

2668
02:03:33,520 --> 02:03:38,400
Speaker 2: don't like subtitles, and I hate that because I'm a

2669
02:03:38,520 --> 02:03:41,680
Speaker 2: subtitle person. I'm a subtitle guy mainly because if we're

2670
02:03:41,680 --> 02:03:43,920
Speaker 2: watching something and someone has like an accent, like, for example,

2671
02:03:43,960 --> 02:03:46,480
Speaker 2: you're watching Game of Thrones, I don't always pick up,

2672
02:03:46,600 --> 02:03:48,600
Speaker 2: like on every little word that's said.

2673
02:03:48,520 --> 02:03:49,080
Speaker 3: Or something like that.

2674
02:03:49,840 --> 02:03:52,520
Speaker 2: And my dad in particular, he don't care. He just

2675
02:03:52,600 --> 02:03:54,480
Speaker 2: wants to see who gets, you know, beat up or

2676
02:03:54,520 --> 02:03:56,960
Speaker 2: dies or whatever, and you'll get to just the story

2677
02:03:57,000 --> 02:03:58,560
Speaker 2: that way. But I'm like, can we please put them

2678
02:03:58,600 --> 02:03:59,200
Speaker 2: the subtitles?

2679
02:03:59,320 --> 02:04:02,440
Speaker 3: Mark, or you go finger at people from behind the wheel.

2680
02:04:02,600 --> 02:04:05,680
Speaker 3: Oh I have before. I don't want to see you

2681
02:04:05,720 --> 02:04:08,360
Speaker 3: any any road rage incidents.

2682
02:04:08,520 --> 02:04:10,160
Speaker 1: Mister. Look, it is wild.

2683
02:04:10,200 --> 02:04:11,880
Speaker 3: There's probably been, you know what, I've been driving for

2684
02:04:11,960 --> 02:04:14,760
Speaker 3: twenty years. I would say I've thrown up the middle

2685
02:04:14,800 --> 02:04:18,840
Speaker 3: finger maybe two or three times, and every time it

2686
02:04:18,960 --> 02:04:21,360
Speaker 3: was met with, oh, this person's ready to you know what,

2687
02:04:21,880 --> 02:04:25,960
Speaker 3: like they're ready to like road rage, and I'm like, damn,

2688
02:04:26,120 --> 02:04:27,640
Speaker 3: I was just throwing up the middle finger and then

2689
02:04:27,760 --> 02:04:30,400
Speaker 3: gonna go my way. But like and of course, you know,

2690
02:04:30,520 --> 02:04:31,920
Speaker 3: at that point then I'm like, all right, I'll probably

2691
02:04:31,920 --> 02:04:33,520
Speaker 3: should go fifty five in the right lane here for

2692
02:04:33,800 --> 02:04:36,480
Speaker 3: for for you know, a couple of miles. I'm a

2693
02:04:36,560 --> 02:04:39,760
Speaker 3: calm driver. I do not, I mean years a long time.

2694
02:04:40,000 --> 02:04:42,360
Speaker 1: I've got I've got two that just started driving within

2695
02:04:42,480 --> 02:04:44,400
Speaker 1: the last six months, and I've told them over and

2696
02:04:44,520 --> 02:04:47,480
Speaker 1: over and over. Too many crazy people out there. They

2697
02:04:47,520 --> 02:04:50,360
Speaker 1: could be carrying guns. Just go about your way, man.

2698
02:04:50,760 --> 02:04:53,800
Speaker 1: If anything happens, yep, sorry, go about your way. I

2699
02:04:53,840 --> 02:04:55,040
Speaker 1: don't want you to getting involved.

2700
02:04:55,200 --> 02:04:55,320
Speaker 4: We do.

2701
02:04:55,320 --> 02:04:57,360
Speaker 2: Nobody want to be around your kids driving. They got

2702
02:04:57,440 --> 02:04:58,920
Speaker 2: to get a little more experience on the road. No,

2703
02:04:59,040 --> 02:05:01,200
Speaker 2: you're to put this stick You're on the back, you know,

2704
02:05:01,360 --> 02:05:03,680
Speaker 2: to get around, get away from them youngest. Looks like

2705
02:05:04,320 --> 02:05:05,960
Speaker 2: for the youngest to back into the parking spot.

2706
02:05:06,160 --> 02:05:07,120
Speaker 1: A Gret's good driver.

2707
02:05:07,360 --> 02:05:09,720
Speaker 3: I'm seeing more and more of those stickers, like the

2708
02:05:10,800 --> 02:05:13,800
Speaker 3: driver stickers. I'm like, is this analogy? You are way

2709
02:05:13,840 --> 02:05:17,400
Speaker 3: older than a student, sir. It's like Jay Querry going

2710
02:05:17,480 --> 02:05:21,000
Speaker 3: back to you know I you Kokemo, he.

2711
02:05:21,000 --> 02:05:23,000
Speaker 1: Would never pru in his car. All right, we are

02:05:46,400 --> 02:05:49,960
Speaker 10: sports Radio ninety three five and one oh seven The Fan.

2718
02:05:52,920 --> 02:05:56,160
Speaker 1: Good morning, everyone, Welcome to the Fan Morning Show. James Boyd,

2719
02:05:56,200 --> 02:05:58,760
Speaker 1: do you remember week or two before the beginning of

2720
02:05:58,800 --> 02:06:02,160
Speaker 1: the regular season, way back when The Fan Morning Show

2721
02:06:03,320 --> 02:06:08,360
Speaker 1: had a Fantasy Football League draft and we invited listeners

2722
02:06:08,480 --> 02:06:11,160
Speaker 1: and we qualified listeners, and we got a draft going,

2723
02:06:11,240 --> 02:06:14,760
Speaker 1: and we had a whole league. And as is the case,

2724
02:06:14,800 --> 02:06:16,840
Speaker 1: through the ups and downs and injuries of a season,

2725
02:06:16,920 --> 02:06:19,200
Speaker 1: all of us were doing well, then maybe not so well,

2726
02:06:19,600 --> 02:06:21,760
Speaker 1: but we finally crowned a champion. We were going to

2727
02:06:22,080 --> 02:06:24,280
Speaker 1: talk about our champion last week before the Super Bowl.

2728
02:06:24,320 --> 02:06:26,760
Speaker 1: Then all these kinds of trades happened and everything kept

2729
02:06:26,800 --> 02:06:29,800
Speaker 1: going on there. But Mark Deckton, I believe we now

2730
02:06:30,440 --> 02:06:33,840
Speaker 1: welcome in the champion of the inaugural fan morning show

2731
02:06:34,040 --> 02:06:37,520
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football League this morning, do we not? Katie from

2732
02:06:37,560 --> 02:06:39,920
Speaker 1: the Krockagators, how are you doing this morning?

2733
02:06:40,920 --> 02:06:42,680
Speaker 11: Hey, I'm good. Thanks for having me on.

2734
02:06:43,120 --> 02:06:46,920
Speaker 1: You you whooped all of us, man, good job out

2735
02:06:46,960 --> 02:06:51,840
Speaker 1: of you. Oh, thank you, thank you so real Quickly,

2736
02:06:51,920 --> 02:06:55,800
Speaker 1: what was the difference in terms of personnel? There's always

2737
02:06:55,800 --> 02:06:58,680
Speaker 1: got to be a surprise or to somebody you're banking on.

2738
02:06:59,000 --> 02:07:01,760
Speaker 1: What was the key to your fantasy football victory here

2739
02:07:01,840 --> 02:07:03,000
Speaker 1: in our inaugural league?

2740
02:07:04,280 --> 02:07:06,760
Speaker 11: Man, well, I think uh, I mean a lot of

2741
02:07:06,840 --> 02:07:09,720
Speaker 11: the time, it's like the weeks you lose, it's it

2742
02:07:09,880 --> 02:07:12,720
Speaker 11: was bad luck. It just things in turnout. When you win,

2743
02:07:12,800 --> 02:07:16,040
Speaker 11: it was just genius, right, And so I would say,

2744
02:07:16,080 --> 02:07:20,080
Speaker 11: my my genius move was getting traded Christian McCaffery in

2745
02:07:20,120 --> 02:07:22,240
Speaker 11: the middle of the season. I thought it was a

2746
02:07:22,320 --> 02:07:24,920
Speaker 11: joke at first, It's like, is he the guy trading me?

2747
02:07:25,040 --> 02:07:27,880
Speaker 11: Is he trying to trip me up? But I traded

2748
02:07:27,880 --> 02:07:30,760
Speaker 11: away the leak neighbors and it worked out pretty well.

2749
02:07:31,640 --> 02:07:33,680
Speaker 3: Were you any other leg Why don't these people offer

2750
02:07:33,760 --> 02:07:34,480
Speaker 3: these trades to me?

2751
02:07:34,640 --> 02:07:34,800
Speaker 9: Here?

2752
02:07:35,640 --> 02:07:35,840
Speaker 11: There?

2753
02:07:36,680 --> 02:07:39,880
Speaker 3: Katie's Katie, you had a j Barner on your team. Man,

2754
02:07:40,000 --> 02:07:41,840
Speaker 3: if this was a fantasy league in the super Bowl,

2755
02:07:42,000 --> 02:07:43,520
Speaker 3: you'd be reaping the benefits from it.

2756
02:07:45,320 --> 02:07:48,160
Speaker 11: It's true, it's true. I mean, it'd be different if

2757
02:07:48,200 --> 02:07:49,960
Speaker 11: we went that long all the way through the season.

2758
02:07:50,160 --> 02:07:53,200
Speaker 11: But but I had Jackson Smith and jig my Face,

2759
02:07:53,240 --> 02:07:54,440
Speaker 11: so that was that was a pretty big deal.

2760
02:07:57,240 --> 02:07:59,000
Speaker 3: That's all I want to know. Like, are you talking

02:08:55,760 --> 02:08:58,360

2787
02:09:05,680 --> 02:09:08,680
Speaker 1: Days, Katie, Thanks for listening. There you go. I thought

2788
02:09:08,720 --> 02:09:10,600
Speaker 1: we'd put a big bow on that because people, you know,

2789
02:09:10,680 --> 02:09:12,320
Speaker 1: we kept up with it a little bit throughout the

2790
02:09:12,400 --> 02:09:14,720
Speaker 1: course of the year, and then we got crazy busy

2791
02:09:14,800 --> 02:09:18,160
Speaker 1: with Indiana making a national championship run and then all

2792
02:09:18,200 --> 02:09:20,440
Speaker 1: the pacers trades and things like that. But I want

2793
02:09:20,440 --> 02:09:22,320
Speaker 1: to make sure Katie got her due, so we were

2794
02:09:22,400 --> 02:09:24,960
Speaker 1: there to do that. So congratulations to her all. I

2795
02:09:25,080 --> 02:09:28,120
Speaker 1: want to thank Scott Agnes and Jolie Erickson for stopping

2796
02:09:28,200 --> 02:09:31,560
Speaker 1: by today. That's always fun. Any final parting thoughts from

2797
02:09:31,600 --> 02:09:32,720
Speaker 1: you today, Kevin Bowen.

2798
02:09:32,520 --> 02:09:33,680
Speaker 3: We'll see a picture of this ring.

2799
02:09:35,480 --> 02:09:36,080
Speaker 1: I'll show it to you.

2800
02:09:36,160 --> 02:09:38,440
Speaker 2: I'm very curious about this as well, man, he said,

2801
02:09:38,440 --> 02:09:41,000
Speaker 2: If it's super Bowl like, Katie might have to meddle

2802
02:09:41,080 --> 02:09:43,600
Speaker 2: detector over to the side when she goes into some

2803
02:09:43,640 --> 02:09:44,280
Speaker 2: sporting events.

2804
02:09:44,360 --> 02:09:46,720
Speaker 1: It may be more cubic zirconia than diamonds, but it's

2805
02:09:46,720 --> 02:09:47,640
Speaker 1: a good looking ring, all right.
