I'll 4 00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 1: tell you what that with the time change, it's weird 5 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:11,680 Speaker 1: starting when it's completely dark. I guess we're kind of 6 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:13,840 Speaker 1: used to that. But that sun comes up a little 7 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,120 Speaker 1: while from now, and right across the street from our 8 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,919 Speaker 1: windows is a building with nothing but glass on the 9 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,079 Speaker 1: front of it. And for about fifteen minutes, man, you 10 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 1: just get blinded, not only from the studio lights up above, 11 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: but then when you look down normally you get blinded 12 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 1: for about fifteen minutes there too. See you're already wearing 13 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: your glasses to work, now, that's what happened already after yesterday. 14 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I've been wearing the glasses for a while. 15 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 2: Man gets early and I'm like, I need to rest 16 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,160 Speaker 2: from the contact.

That means no class 18 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:44,239 Speaker 1: in Bloomington this morning, right, Indeed. 19 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 3: I mean got on shower and I'm not very sanitary. 20 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 3: We keep our distance here in the studio. 21 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,840 Speaker 1: Caleb Uver is the smartest guy here because he works 22 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: in a room that he can see us all through glass, 23 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 1: but he doesn't have to physically be near us right now. 24 00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:59,280 Speaker 4: I have to be around you, guys, doesn't have to 25 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 4: smell us quite frankly. 26 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 1: No local basketball to watch last night. I don't know 27 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 1: what you guys did with your TV. But real quickly, Kevin, 28 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: I'll get to you in a second. But James, I 29 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 1: finished up season one of land Man last night. You 30 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: didn't tell me. Jerry Jones was coming out of nowhere. 31 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 4: Wild show. 32 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 3: You get off Marshall, get listening here, go check it out. 33 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: He was pretty good though in the little scene that 34 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 1: he had. 35 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 3: It was it was. The show was wild. It's hard 36 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 3: to describe. 37 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: Kevin. Did you partake in any Tiger Woods viewing last 38 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 1: night with tgo? 39 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 4: Watched a little. He did hit the golf ball too 40 00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 4: too much, although he threw another little t's out there 41 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 4: about the Masters. You are correct, no local basketball, But 42 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 4: I do think we should mention a national champion last 43 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 4: night the Marry and Women the Nights, So Tanna Anderson, 44 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 4: hope I'm saying the coach's name correctly over there, they upset. 45 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 4: I think that's fair to say the number one overall 46 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 4: team in the land door. They're down at half. I 47 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:59,559 Speaker 4: saw some highlights late last night. Madison Bailey from Bedford, 48 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 4: they had all forty minutes. I think she had twenty 49 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 4: three or twenty four points. I know the brother of again. 50 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 4: I hope I say her first name correctly. I think 51 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 4: it's Kenna Kirby from Try West is a big listener. 52 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 3: He was in the YouTube chat yesterday. 53 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 4: So shout out to the Knights national champs over there. 54 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 4: They got a couple sisters from Cole Rain, very powerful 55 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 4: high school program out of Ohio. There they get it done. 56 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 4: They win four games in that tournament and they are 57 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 4: national champs. So don't say that very often. So pretty 58 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 4: pretty cool to see that. 59 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, they did a fantastic job. And man they've been 60 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 1: on a roll too. They lost two of three in 61 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: the middle of the season and then James they were 62 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 1: in after last night, an eighteen game winning streak to 63 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:43,519 Speaker 1: close out the season. 64 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:44,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm looking here. 65 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:45,679 Speaker 1: Thirty five and two. 66 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's an outstanding record. And I mean 67 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 2: they really took the game by the Horns early on 68 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 2: one seventy three sixty one, so they were no doubt. 69 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,919 Speaker 4: They were down four and half and they were able 70 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 4: to come back a huge third quarters really kind of 71 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 4: put them and control there for the for the fourth quarter. 72 00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, so they get that one done there, and now 73 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: we start to turning our attention to other tournament games. 74 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: Got the boys high school state tournament happening for all 75 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 1: the championships on Saturday. You'll hear all four games right 76 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,399 Speaker 1: here at ninety three, five, one or seven to the fan. 77 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:17,839 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that a little bit as the show 78 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: goes along. But of course Friday night, James seven to ten, 79 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 1: San Jose, you're gonna drop jump on a quick flight 80 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: to San Jose and then then come back after a 81 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: couple of games for Purdue as they take on Texas 82 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: Thursday night. 83 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 2: Boy, I wish, I wish, but that will be a 84 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 2: great matchup, and as Kevin said, you get a chance 85 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 2: to if Purdue advance, relax and kick your feet up 86 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 2: and wait for that next matchup to kind of play 87 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 2: itself out. But obviously if you lose, you're feeling like 88 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 2: ah is the season it is worth watching anymore. So 89 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 2: I don't want to take that Texas much up, for granted, 90 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 2: and so they're going automatically gonna win that game. I 91 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 2: do think Produce should be favorite, and beyond just seeding purposes, 92 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 2: I think they're a better basketball team. 93 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 4: But Texas will present some challenges for sure. 94 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, you've watched these guys all four years now, this 95 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: core group of seniors, they obviously have been close to 96 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: getting it all done. The way they've been playing the 97 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: last six games, they put everything together. I mean, it's 98 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: it's four more games you got to win, and there's 99 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 1: some intense competition out there. But how do you like 100 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:18,799 Speaker 1: their chances right now? 101 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 4: Well, it's funny, you know, this is probably the last 102 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 4: time they'll be favored all year. You know, I think 103 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:29,480 Speaker 4: after Fair tomorrow, you're probably gonna be the underdog. You know, 104 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 4: if you want to look at the seeds, Arizona, Michigan, Duke, 105 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 4: that would be your final three. You imagine that gauntlet 106 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 4: to cut down the nets. So yeah, this is kind 107 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 4: of where I feel like as a fan, you almost 108 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 4: transition during the week. You know, we talked about a 109 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 4: lot of Monday Tuesday. I think it's such a great 110 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 4: time for a college basketball fan. If you're one of 111 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 4: the final sixteen, you know, you kind of kick the 112 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:53,039 Speaker 4: feed up on Monday or Tuesday and You're like, yeah, 113 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 4: we're still alive, and all right, who's coming over Thursday? Now, 114 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 4: Oh man, that's great that we're in the seven ten 115 00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 4: you know time slot and you know all of that, 116 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 4: and now it's like, oh boy, here we go. Lock in. 117 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 3: They're out in San Jose. You know, you hope c. J. 118 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 4: Cox knee didn't flare up too much on that flight. 119 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 4: We'll see what the update is for Matt Painter today. 120 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 4: Pretty do we have an open practice out there in 121 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 4: San Jose. But yeah, certainly, Jeff, they've played great, great 122 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 4: ball the last week and a half. But obviously the 123 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 4: Braden Smith that we saw on Sunday cannot be the 124 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 4: Bradinsmith moving forward. You know that's probably State in the 125 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 4: obvious here. I'm not that concerned with Texas. I don't 126 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 4: want to act like this is just you know, lay 127 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 4: up lines for forty minutes. But you know, again, after 128 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 4: tomorrow night, you know you're gonna be in a much 129 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 4: different kind of role moving forward. And honestly, the big 130 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 4: college basketball news last night with Hubert Davis getting fired 131 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 4: by North Carolina. 132 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 3: Oh, they said they parted ways. 133 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 1: Hubert said it something, he said it different. He said 134 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: he'd been let go. 135 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,919 Speaker 2: I'm just making a joke because Kevin, we all know 136 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 2: parts ways, eh, but continue. 137 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, the key line is always we wish you well 138 00:05:58,120 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: on your future endeavors. 139 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 4: Language and press release can make you laugh at times there. 140 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 4: I think the buyout money would indicate what truly happened there. 141 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 4: I did see the name mentioned there for North Carolina 142 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 4: being Tommy Lloyd and Arizona. So, you know, is that 143 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 4: a question that Tommy Lloyd has to field later today 144 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 4: out there in San Jose? Is that a question that 145 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 4: maybe is a little bit more on Arizona's players' minds 146 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 4: here in this day and agent college basketball, maybe that 147 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 4: doesn't matter as much. 148 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 3: Seemingly everybody is on kind of one year deals. 149 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 4: But big, big news item last night from college basketball, 150 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 4: and what's domino effect off of that? You know, when's 151 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,279 Speaker 4: the last time the North Carolina job has been open 152 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 4: and they haven't gone in the family, Like there's no 153 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 4: one in the family that's obvious when you look at it. 154 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 4: I mean, there's no obviously, no like coaching waiting situation here. 155 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 4: So what where the dominoes around college basketball with that? 156 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 4: And does Kansas open up?

I think it's an awesome, awesome sweet sixteen. 159 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 4: And then, if you want to look at it from 160 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 4: college basketball as a whole, North Carolina is one of 161 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 4: the best jobs out there and now it's open. 162 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: And already there's all kinds of speculation that I was 163 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: listening to a Charlotte station coming in this morning to 164 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: see what they were thinking, and they're talking about Billy 165 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: Donovan maybe from the Bulls. They're talking about, you know, 166 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: they want to go after Todd Golden, but Todd Golden 167 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,679 Speaker 1: is going to get a contract extension again, I think 168 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: in Florida. 169 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 4: Is Billy Donovan's name ever not been mentioned when a 170 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 4: college basketball opening of prominence has come up in the 171 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 4: last decade. 172 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: No, every time. 173 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 3: And Billy Donovan and Brad Stevens, and. 174 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: Brad Stevens is another guy that they're talking about out 175 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: there too. It was those two, Brad Stevens and Billy Donovan. 176 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. When you're North Carolina in Kansas, 177 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: and this always amuses me just a little bit in 178 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: today's day and age, because I don't think blue blood today, 179 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: whether it's Kentucky, whether it's North Carolina, whether it's Kansas, 180 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: whether it's any of these Indiana right now, those fan 181 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: bases and administras always think we can go get in 182 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: just about anybody we want. We say, oh, it's worked 183 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: out in Indiana lately, hopefully defreasons. 184 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 2: Did you mention Indiana as a blue blood with these programs? 185 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: My point is, in NIL what's a blue blood anymore? 186 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: What is a blue blood anymore? 187 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 3: I'm a good question. 188 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 5: If you're North Carolina, the idea that you would fire 189 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 5: a guy that has had some success for you maybe 190 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 5: not the ultimate success that you're looking for to be 191 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 5: another Dean Smith, the Roy Williams. 192 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: I get that, But they make these moves and I 193 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 1: don't know that they truly have a succession plan in place. 194 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,000 Speaker 1: They just figure, oh, we're in North Carolina, we'll go 195 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: get anybody we want to right now. 196 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 2: I think you probably should have that mindset, honestly, even 197 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 2: in the NIL era. It's North Carolina. 198 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,199 Speaker 1: But my point is, you got to have a plan 199 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 1: before you make these moves. And they've spent two days 200 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 1: arguing back and forth with Hubert Davis. They asked him 201 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: to prepare a whole plan for what is it's going 202 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: to look like if he stays and then they reject that, 203 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 1: it tells me they don't have a plan. That's the 204 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: thing that dries me nuts. 205 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was weird, Like the whole I guess make 206 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 2: a case for yourself. Either make a decision to Jeff's 207 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 2: point and move on. But I think Hooper Davis, I mean, 208 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 2: outside of his first year, they are getting to the 209 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 2: National championship game. 210 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 3: It was very underwhelming. 211 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, probably, Oh absolutely, I mean it was a great game, 212 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 2: but looking back on his tenure the last two years, 213 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 2: giving bounce, I believe in the first round and I 214 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 2: do wonder. 215 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 3: Okay, if kileb. 216 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 2: Wilson stays healthy, does that change things for you this season? 217 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:26,079 Speaker 2: But nevertheless, you should not have lost a what was 218 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 2: a nineteen point lead against VCU. 219 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 3: That's tough to overcome. I think the answer is. 220 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 4: Rather simple in today's day and age, particularly college basketball, 221 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 4: although I don't agree with it, the decision makers are 222 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,200 Speaker 4: the big booster. It says, I ain't giving his money. 223 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 4: Here's a million dollars if you go out and get 224 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 4: a quality wing. And by the way, if it's that coach, 225 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 4: the million dollars isn't coming your way. But if you 226 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 4: go out there and make a change, then the million 227 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 4: dollars is coming your way. Like I think that is 228 00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 4: a large part of the decision making with this, and 229 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 4: maybe it was always that a little bit more behind 230 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 4: the scenes from a Booster standpoint, but in today's climate, 231 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 4: you know, basically all you hear and we can get 232 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 4: in this a little bit with the Butler situation right now, 233 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,719 Speaker 4: because it seemed like yesterday and maybe I'm too much 234 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 4: in the weeds with Notre Dame basketball, but like there 235 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 4: was a lot I think of social media smoke around 236 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 4: Michael Shrewsbury and Butler yesterday. You know, today's climate, it's like, 237 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 4: oh yeah, I couldn't win there because I didn't have resources. 238 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 4: Like that's just the simple answer of like do you 239 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 4: have resources or do you not have resources? Are you 240 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 4: willing to sit at the big kids table are you not? 241 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 4: And then from a do we hire do we fire? 242 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 4: It comes down to hey, Booster three four here the 243 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 4: court side seats, are they gonna commit six seven figures 244 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 4: to our program or are they not? And they're largely 245 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 4: the ones that I think are calling the shots here 246 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 4: for you know, really all of these programs out there. Uh, 247 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 4: and that's just the same sad reality I think of 248 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 4: where we're at right now in college athletics. 249 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,839 Speaker 1: It's crazy. Did I not read though yesterday in the 250 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 1: afternoon that Michael Shrewsbury is said that he's not a 251 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: candidate at Butler now. 252 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, Tom Noy the Notre Dame beat Right of South 253 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 4: Bend Tribune did have you know? He had some sore 254 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 4: statements that said Michael Shrewsbury is returning. So I believe 255 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 4: yesterday I saw Chris Holtman came out with the video 256 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 4: that he is staying at DePaul. So if you want 257 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 4: to look at the candidates that Keema Gillespie threw out 258 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 4: for Butler in the Indianapolis Star, those were two of 259 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 4: the four. The other two would be Ronald Noried, who 260 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 4: again is with the Hawks right now, and then John Gross. 261 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 4: We saw Akron lose in round one of the tournament there. 262 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 4: So if Butler is indeed going to keep it in 263 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 4: the family with you know, one of those four names, 264 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 4: two of the four, I guess, have you I guess 265 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 4: nothing official from Shrewsbury announced he's coming back. And I 266 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 4: mean again, I'd heard from several people, yes, like a. 267 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 4: Shrewsbury to Butler, it's gonna happen. What are your thoughts? 268 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,079 Speaker 4: I was like, oh wow, this was really turning. And 269 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:01,079 Speaker 4: then all of a sudden you had their report from 270 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,719 Speaker 4: Tom Noy of the South Bend Tribute. So we'll see 271 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 4: when the white smoke occurs, and you know, not that 272 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 4: obviously Butler would have any candidates competing for the North 273 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 4: Carolina opening. But again, what's the domino effect? I'm always 274 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,479 Speaker 4: curious about that, Like, Okay, Tommy Lloyd goes to Carolina, 275 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,199 Speaker 4: who goes to Arizona? Okay, all of a sudden you 276 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 4: to wear is all of the this dominoes of that 277 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,839 Speaker 4: dominoes are that like all of that plays out? Yeah, 278 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 4: I remember when Notre Dame hired Michael Shrewsbury few years ago, 279 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 4: the runner up was Darren Devrees. Well look how that 280 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 4: turned out for Darren Devrees. He then went to West 281 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 4: Virginia and now is the Indiana job, and obviously he's 282 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:36,599 Speaker 4: making a lot more at Indiana than he would have 283 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 4: been Notre Dame. 284 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 1: All right, that's a little bit of a setup for 285 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 1: what's coppying for after the rest of the show. Here 286 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 1: at ninety three five one oh seven to five of 287 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: the Fan, Caleb silent so far this morning?

Got 613 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 1: too many freshmen. I'm thinking a freshman that are already 614 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 1: I don't know, is it. 615 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,880 Speaker 6: I'm gonna get Saint John's over here, Iowa State? 616 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 4: Maybe James Boyd? 617 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 1: Nice? 618 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 4: How about that?

I'm gonna say, Michigan 622 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 2: James Boyd. 623 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 4: How, oh my gosh, this man should be on Sports Jeopardy. 624 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I remember Stumped the schwab D. Did 625 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 1: you remember that show? 626 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,719 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that was a great great watch me back 627 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 4: in the night I was schwab That's kind of wild, James, 628 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 4: you think about it. They made the Sweet sixteen last year, 629 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:27,439 Speaker 4: Michigan his first season, and you know they got a 630 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 4: freshman Trey McKenny. We obviously have seen Yaxel Transfernanda the 631 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 4: UA B if I remember correctly for him, Elliot Caddou 632 00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 4: coming from North Carolina. Uh, kind of wild that you have. Yeah, 633 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 4: I would not have guessed that right away on that. 634 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 4: So Michigan State they have been a little bit more 635 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 4: of not the most portal hungry team. Really with Izzo, 636 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 4: I still haven't seen one of those graphics. I feel 637 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 4: like we usually see him around the sweet sixteen where 638 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 4: like they list the starting lineups of where they started their. 639 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 3: Careers, and it is kind of interesting. 640 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 4: Obviously from a produce standpoint, four of the five Cluff 641 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,160 Speaker 4: would be the one Oscar Cluff would be the one here. 642 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 3: But yeah, I found that interesting when I heard that yesterday. 643 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 2: So here's a question I was thinking about as we 644 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 2: get closer to the sweet sixteen, and obviously the college 645 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 2: basketball landscape has changed, But at what point do you 646 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 2: think we in our space complain too much about the 647 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 2: differences of how the sports are now? For example, like 648 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 2: I feel like a lot of the conversation these days 649 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 2: is like, oh man, there's no Cinderellas and nil this 650 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 2: andil that. But like, do you still not get some 651 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 2: of that march maddness feeling or how do you all 652 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 2: feel about just the changing landscape? Because it's in my 653 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 2: mind I'm always like, all right, maybe I've complained enough. 654 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 2: I hear my mom and my ear saying, boy, just 655 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 2: suck it up. And at some point I'm like, can 656 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:47,479 Speaker 2: I just enjoy the sport? And I feel like I 657 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 2: have still if I changed my perspective a little bit. 658 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: I think once the ball gets tipped up and we 659 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 1: just start watching a game, it's basketball right at that 660 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 1: point in time. Yeah, and then we get back to 661 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 1: bitching and complaining when it's over with, depending on how 662 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 1: things turned out. That's kind of what we do, is it? Kevin? Yeah? 663 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 3: I mean what's the alternative? Is the alternative not to watch? 664 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: Well? 665 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 4: I don't think I want to do that, But like 666 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 4: if you presented the two with me, do I wish 667 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 4: there are a few more guardrails? 668 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 3: Do I wish you had a little bit more team continuity? 669 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 4: And like, oh, you know, I just mentioned IU football 670 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 4: spring is about ready to start. Like if you asked 671 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 4: an average IU football fan, right now, name five players 672 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 4: on your team for next year. I think I could 673 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 4: do it. 674 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 1: I mean, everybody wants to say God. 675 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 4: And again that's the climate like that, and I think 676 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 4: that's a little bit of the bummer aspect to it. 677 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 3: It's you know, I. 678 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 4: Feel like historically you you see the poster Scott, He's 679 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 4: got one in his office of the IU basketball roster, 680 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 4: the floating heads, you know, and it's like every year 681 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 4: you look at it and it's like, wait, none of 682 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 4: those were on the poster last year, right, and this 683 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 4: year is going to be the same thing. Like I 684 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 4: I think that's a little bit of a bummer. Now again, 685 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 4: when the ball is tipped to use Jeff's one shining 686 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 4: moment lyric, you know, obviously people are still watching, and 687 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 4: you know, Purdue fans they don't have it as much. 688 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 4: I guess if you want to live it from a 689 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 4: local standpoint. But yeah, I you know, I'm kind of 690 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 4: this weird like fan predicament. Maybe I'll ask you guys 691 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:21,080 Speaker 4: for some advice right now, Like, Okay, Notre Dame Micah Shrewsbury, 692 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,480 Speaker 4: rumored to be a candidate of Butler, comes out last night. 693 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 4: According to the South Bend Tribune. He's not a candidate. 694 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 4: Should I want Michael sh Shrewsbury to take the butler job? 695 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 1: Does it count that I don't want Micah Shrewsbury to 696 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: take the butler job. 697 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:37,760 Speaker 3: So you don't think he's a good coach? 698 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 4: Is that? 699 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 1: What is that? 700 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 3: Why you're saying that. 701 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 1: Not a coach I want to run. I've not been 702 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: overly impressed at Notre Dame. 703 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:45,719 Speaker 2: So would you want him to take that job so 704 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:47,280 Speaker 2: you can get an upgrade in Notre Dame? 705 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 1: Yes, saying. 706 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 4: So That's where I find myself torn as a fan 707 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 4: right now? It comes out in the reporting last night 708 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 4: that Notre Dame, one of their rotational players made one 709 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 4: hundred and fifty thousand dollars in Notre last year and 710 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,200 Speaker 4: he has been offered a one million dollar rotational spot 711 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 4: at another school. When you when you hear the word 712 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 4: Notre Dame, you don't think of financial issues, correct, right? 713 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 4: And we're talking here this dude's being offered ten times 714 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 4: the amount of money he just made last year and 715 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 4: Notre Dame can't pony that up, like do they just 716 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 4: not care about basketball? And then okay, then how do 717 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,479 Speaker 4: I view Michael Shrewsbury. He hasn't had a ranked win 718 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 4: in three years. Notre Dame has had largely an awful record. 719 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 4: Now again, they've had injuries. I'm probably in the two 720 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 4: percent of the fan base that doesn't want him fired. 721 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 4: I don't really know why, to be honest with you, 722 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 4: I weirdly think, like, let's just see this out that 723 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 4: he's had bad injury, luck, all of it. But then 724 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 4: I sit there and look at the finances, and I'm like, 725 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 4: how are you expected to compete at a high level 726 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 4: when your rotational player is getting offered ten times the 727 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 4: amount of money to go play somewhere else? Like do 728 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 4: you have money or do you not? 729 00:32:58,080 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 1: Or is all the money just go to football and 730 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 1: whatever is left the r the best? 731 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 4: And then from an athletic program, how do you divide 732 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 4: that up? I'm very like conflicted, I guess, James, and 733 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 4: I don't know if maybe this gets back to what 734 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 4: you brought up a few minutes ago, but it's just 735 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 4: like I don't really know how to react as a 736 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 4: fan right now. Of like, would anybody succeed in today's 737 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 4: climate with Notre Dame's budget consideration? From a basketball standpoint, 738 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,959 Speaker 4: it is Butler. Is there any analogy to Butler? I mean, 739 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 4: what did we just hear from bad Mada in a 740 00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 4: lot of these press conferences. What did we hear from 741 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 4: fellow biggiest coaches? Well, Butler's not able to sit at 742 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 4: the same table Kevin's other biggiest teams. I really fight 743 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 4: that as a fan right now, of like, how can 744 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 4: you critically evaluate the situation when simply it seems to 745 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 4: come down to like do you have money or do 746 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 4: you not? Now, if you have money, I either school 747 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 4: in Bloomington and you continue to lose, that's obviously not 748 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 4: good at all. That That's where I'm torn. 749 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 6: Well, and you go back to what Dan Hurley said 750 00:33:56,240 --> 00:34:00,120 Speaker 6: about the state of the Butler program back in February 751 00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 6: and talking about how they need more resources. Kevin, do 752 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 6: you feel like, you know, if Micah Shrewsbury leaves Notre 753 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,280 Speaker 6: Dame for Butler? Do you are you asking that question? 754 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:12,760 Speaker 6: Because do you feel like it would be kind of like, man, 755 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 6: Notre Dame is not even basketball is not even as 756 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,840 Speaker 6: good of a job as the Butler job. Like, and 757 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:23,280 Speaker 6: we're in the acc we have history. I know Butler 758 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 6: a lot has a lot of history too, but is 759 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 6: that kind of what you're scared of as well? Like 760 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 6: if he left for that job in the state and 761 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:32,879 Speaker 6: feeling like, man, we're lower on the pecking order. 762 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, that is a thought, like is it viewed as 763 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,359 Speaker 4: a dark day for Notre Dame basketball or is Michael 764 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:42,240 Speaker 4: Shrewsbury looking at it and saying, boy, I'm Chris bout 765 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 4: and change staking with the Colts for this year, Like 766 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,439 Speaker 4: the seat is scorching hot. I need to get ahead 767 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,240 Speaker 4: of the game here. And maybe I'm more of whatever. 768 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:51,799 Speaker 4: You know, Butler, he obviously has history there. He went 769 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 4: to high school here in Indianapolis. You know, there are plenty 770 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 4: of reasons for him to have some attraction there. And 771 00:34:58,440 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 4: you know, a lot of this gets back to the 772 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 4: Hubert Davis saying to lead off the show with of 773 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 4: you know, are there North Carolina boosters that are saying, 774 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 4: I have a million dollars already donate to the program. 775 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 3: It will come if Hubert Davis is not the head coach. 776 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of that too. One other 777 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 1: little nugget about that situation. Bubba Cunningham, the current athletic director, 778 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: the guy responsible for Bill Belichick in a lot of 779 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,800 Speaker 1: ways he's going to be elevated to like a special 780 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:25,400 Speaker 1: position within North Carolina, and a brand new guy is 781 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 1: coming in to run day to day operations as the 782 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 1: athletic director on June first, And it could be that 783 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 1: that guy just wants to bring in his own guy 784 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 1: and wants a clean break and wants to get going forward. 785 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 1: In addition to money. People that are saying, yeah, we 786 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: really wouldn't mind, because what I've heard is there are 787 00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:44,879 Speaker 1: a few hardcores at North Carolina that want Hubert Davis gone, 788 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 1: and there's a bunch of other people like we like Hubert. 789 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 1: I guess it'd be okay if he stayed, but I 790 00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 1: guess it'd be okay if he left. To you put 791 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,719 Speaker 1: all that together, and there just was no runway for him. 792 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 4: Like going back to the Butler combo, was this one 793 00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,160 Speaker 4: thousand percent that model a side and hanging up or 794 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 4: where there's some Butler lums that say, look, this is 795 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 4: not working. I hear Thad's comments. He does not sound 796 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 4: like a man that is ready to fully embrace this 797 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 4: new era of college basketball, which if I can raise 798 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,200 Speaker 4: my hand, I don't blame him if I accomplish with that. 799 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:15,839 Speaker 4: Mada has in my career. I'm probably not gonna put 800 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 4: up with it either. But again, if you are saying, hey, 801 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 4: I'm not ready to donate to whatever this collective that collective, 802 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 4: but if you're going to make a change here, I 803 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:26,319 Speaker 4: might be a little bit more open minded to that. 804 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,279 Speaker 2: To the point about that, I think what's difficult is 805 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 2: that even when you do have success early, if it 806 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 2: isn't sustained right away, you're kind of always on the 807 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 2: hot seat. It feels like because one like, let's say 808 00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 2: you have a good season and you have some players 809 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 2: that come to you, you develop in a little bit, 810 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,759 Speaker 2: they work out, and then it's like, all right, are 811 00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 2: you gonna be back next year? I know we just 812 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 2: had a great thing going, but you know, do you 813 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 2: still love me? And that sort of thing. And I 814 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 2: do think that's a big factor when other school can 815 00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:57,440 Speaker 2: just always swoop in. 816 00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,439 Speaker 3: And say here's a bigger check. 817 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 2: And I'm not sure like that's always against North Carolina 818 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 2: of the world. I mean, they can pay for anybody 819 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,879 Speaker 2: with the right backing. But Butler, I do think that's 820 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 2: probably a conversation you have to have even if you 821 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 2: do have some success. 822 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:12,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, the other thing about Hubert Davis too. 823 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:15,560 Speaker 1: He was one and twelve against quad one teams this year, 824 00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: but career he was twenty three and thirty eight against 825 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: quad one teams. That's not North Carolina. Yeah, that's not 826 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:25,280 Speaker 1: what the standard is there. So I like Hubert Davis. 827 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 1: I think he probably would have been okay had he 828 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,719 Speaker 1: stayed there, but his record shows that he had not 829 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,880 Speaker 1: had great success against the better teams in college. 830 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 2: Battle just said it there, Jeff, he was okay, that's 831 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 2: not Carol. That ain't gonna cut it. 832 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:41,840 Speaker 1: But he's a family guy and everybody loved him, and 833 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 1: that's probably why he made it for as deep as 834 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 1: he did. 835 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 3: We gonna love you enough to pay his buyout. 836 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 4: Thank you to love for sending this. We asked or 837 00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 4: I guess I asked it out loud. You know that 838 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 4: that graphic you see kind of thrown around this time 839 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:56,839 Speaker 4: of year, You know where the starting five of each 840 00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:00,200 Speaker 4: of the Sweet sixteen teams, where did they begin their 841 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 4: college careers? Again, Michigan State all five, Purdue for Duke, 842 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 4: for Houston for Arizona, and Alabama also have four. So 843 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 4: the Sweet sixteen teams won two, three, four. He got 844 00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 4: six of the sixteen have four or five of their 845 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 4: starters that all began their career. It is kind of 846 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:20,880 Speaker 4: funny to look at the Purdue logo and it pops 847 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 4: up on another team, and that would be Cam Heidi. 848 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 4: Tomorrow night is Shon Deller of Cam Heidi stand in 849 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,359 Speaker 4: front of the room and break down Purdue film. 850 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 6: I have a nice shot there last weekend give a 851 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,360 Speaker 6: presentation just on tendencies for each player. 852 00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 1: I like it. 853 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 4: I'm not gonna lie. 854 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 3: I feel like that is always. 855 00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:39,760 Speaker 2: The easiest story to do when you're in the media, 856 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 2: is when the former player faces the former team or 857 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 2: vice versa. 858 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:44,240 Speaker 4: Even BENNEDICG. 859 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:45,840 Speaker 2: Matherin like he's been gone for a while and now 860 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:47,359 Speaker 2: but when he comes back here, that's a little bit 861 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 2: different because he's coming back to the team that drafted 862 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:51,280 Speaker 2: him and it's still in the same season. 863 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 3: But I still think that there probably will be a lot. 864 00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,320 Speaker 2: Of questions about, wait, Benedict Mather did you give me 865 00:38:57,320 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 2: any like tips on plays? And it's like, well, it's 866 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:01,800 Speaker 2: a game seventy three of whatever season. 867 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, Like those assistant coaches for the Clippers have been 868 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:06,360 Speaker 6: studying pacer. 869 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: They know the pacers just as good as mad. I'm 870 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 1: sure they've got the advanced scouts all over the Pacers. 871 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 1: At this point in time, you just write him down 872 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 1: as hey, keep this game close in the fourth quarter. 873 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 1: They don't want to win this game. We'll just move on. 874 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Cam Heidi revenge game. And I said that 875 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 2: as a joke yesterday and someone was like, why would 876 00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 2: you be mad? I'm like, no, it's not a serious thing, 877 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:27,879 Speaker 2: but it's just funny to think about, Like that could 878 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:31,840 Speaker 2: be some sort of motivation, if anything, for that matchup. 879 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 1: Last thing on your overall point there, Kevin, I go 880 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 1: back to a stat that we talked about I think 881 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:39,239 Speaker 1: a week ago, and Caleb, I don't know if you 882 00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:41,719 Speaker 1: were here, maybe i'll ask you. And for people who 883 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 1: haven't heard this, out of all the Power for schools, 884 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:50,920 Speaker 1: the Power four conferences, how many players total have played 885 00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:54,320 Speaker 1: all four years at their current school if they're a senior. 886 00:39:54,400 --> 00:40:00,120 Speaker 6: Now, I'll guess seven twenty two under sold it. I 887 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 6: played the game wrong there. I got to over sell 888 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 6: it so that you can like, but seven sold it 889 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:05,959 Speaker 6: too much. 890 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,839 Speaker 1: That was bad. When you're talking about fifteen guys over 891 00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:13,359 Speaker 1: what about sixty four give or take teams? That's that's 892 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 1: a crazy number. Twenty two, Kevin, that's nuts in today's world. 893 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:19,480 Speaker 4: Yeah. Jordan Cornette, by the way, I joined us coming 894 00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:21,400 Speaker 4: up nine o'clock. He was on the Westwood one call 895 00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:26,400 Speaker 4: of Purdue beating Miami on Sunday. I always enjoy his thoughts, 896 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:28,400 Speaker 4: and I think, honestly, he's got a lot of relevance 897 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:32,320 Speaker 4: to today's topic given that he played an Notre Dame and obviously, 898 00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,160 Speaker 4: you know, very close to the Butler program as well 899 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,839 Speaker 4: with his late great brother. So Jordan Cornett canna join 900 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:39,960 Speaker 4: us here coming up at nine today? 901 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:41,880 Speaker 1: All right, we'll talk about a lot of those things 902 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 1: as well. And where are we at with Illinois? Man? 903 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:48,439 Speaker 1: How's how's the program doing over there? But you're feeling good? 904 00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:49,279 Speaker 4: I feel good. 905 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 2: I mean they're a really good team this year. And 906 00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:53,280 Speaker 2: I don't say that just because I'm wearing the hoodie. 907 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 2: But they have a chance to, I really believe, get 908 00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 2: to a Final four. So it'll be tough to knock 909 00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:01,320 Speaker 2: off Houston this week, but I'm excited for it. 910 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:03,080 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a lot of fun. I'm looking forward 911 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 1: to these games. And like I said, I know we 912 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:09,839 Speaker 1: talked a lot yesterday about Cinderella being dead, but at 913 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 1: the same time, you're looking at the heavyweight to college 914 00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:14,759 Speaker 1: basketball going at it right now. 915 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,759 Speaker 6: Yeah, I was gonna ask James, like, this feels like 916 00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 6: a big Brad Underwood moment. I feel like he needs 917 00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:25,720 Speaker 6: this big tournament win to beat Kelvin Samson in Houston. 918 00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:29,439 Speaker 6: I think would be like really really important for him 919 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:32,840 Speaker 6: and kind of how people remember kind of his tenure 920 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,520 Speaker 6: because he's done a great job building this program back 921 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:38,240 Speaker 6: and now it's like time to take that next step. 922 00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:39,239 Speaker 1: Right Absolutely. 923 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 2: I believe they've only been to the sweet six team 924 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:44,880 Speaker 2: twice since the five runs in the National Championship. So 925 00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 2: I'll let you know, gosh, that's crazy. How Yeah, that 926 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:49,920 Speaker 2: is nuts to think about. But on top of that, 927 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 2: that's one of the knocks on Underwood's like, Okay, well, 928 00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:53,279 Speaker 2: you've built them back up. They've got the most I 929 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 2: think big ten wins of the twenty twenties, and you know, 930 00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:00,480 Speaker 2: regular season playing all that, but can you go further 931 00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 2: in March? So got an opportunity in front of you, 932 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 2: But Houston will certainly not lay down because those who 933 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 2: can play and they're there. 934 00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:07,840 Speaker 3: I feel like at the end every year. 935 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:09,919 Speaker 1: Two three, nine, ten seventy is the number to call 936 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,120 Speaker 1: in or just Texas too, three nine ten seventy the 937 00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 1: fan text line. We'll read some of those as we 938 00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 1: go along throughout the day as well. You're listening to 939 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,839 Speaker 1: the Fan Morning Show ninety three five one, I'm seven 940 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:22,759 Speaker 1: to five of the fan. Yes, indeed, we've got to 941 00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,720 Speaker 1: the Sweet sixteen coming up for college basketball and already 942 00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,880 Speaker 1: the coaching carousel. If you think about a carousel, right, 943 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,160 Speaker 1: you think about a slow moving kids ride where the 944 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 1: little horses are going up and down, and maybe maybe 945 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,239 Speaker 1: there's one little elephant that your little boy likes to 946 00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:38,759 Speaker 1: get on or throw something like that. Right now, that 947 00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:42,200 Speaker 1: that carousel it's blown a gasket. Man, it's just spinning 948 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:45,640 Speaker 1: wildly out there. Who knows who's gonna end up where 949 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:48,200 Speaker 1: we're gonna leave a job for multi millions to go 950 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:51,319 Speaker 1: to another job worth multi millions. I heard this. I 951 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,319 Speaker 1: heard this morning that Will Wade as rumored to go 952 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:55,359 Speaker 1: back to LSU at this point in time. 953 00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 4: I did see that as well. 954 00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, uh, and then you got Kansas. It could be 955 00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:03,560 Speaker 1: self is making rumblings about maybe I don't feel well 956 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 1: enough to do this job. He'll make a decision right, 957 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:09,640 Speaker 1: he's had all kinds of health issues, and North Carolina's 958 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:12,400 Speaker 1: parting way with one of their family members and Hubert 959 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 1: Davis and it's just and now down at Miami, they're 960 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:19,080 Speaker 1: talking about giving Todd Golden an extension for the third 961 00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:22,480 Speaker 1: year in Aurora, Florida. I'm sorry, Florida, for the third 962 00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:23,480 Speaker 1: year in a row. 963 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 2: So I know Kevin made this remark earlier about certain 964 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:31,520 Speaker 2: coaches will get a raised with a couple extra zeros 965 00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:32,400 Speaker 2: they haven't earned. 966 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 3: Boy, once in my life, I would love to experience that, right, 967 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:39,080 Speaker 3: sounds a good life, doesn't. 968 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:41,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, the market changes and all of a sudden, I'm 969 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:42,400 Speaker 2: getting a raise because that's. 970 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,279 Speaker 3: Because you know, made it to the NCAA. 971 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,200 Speaker 2: Tournament in year three or whatever the case may be 972 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:50,360 Speaker 2: from our resume. But that's the reality of what we're 973 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:50,799 Speaker 2: dealing with. 974 00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:53,319 Speaker 1: But but Golden's put some gold in his pocket though, 975 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:54,880 Speaker 1: I mean, he's playing with out. 976 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 2: He won a national championship last year, and they had 977 00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,719 Speaker 2: a really good team this year as well. But as 978 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 2: someone who was still I think i'm I would say 979 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:04,920 Speaker 2: I'm so relatively new to the college basketball landscape as 980 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 2: far as just how things work and how they've worked 981 00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:07,359 Speaker 2: in the past. 982 00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 4: What do you think is a. 983 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 2: Job that's too big to not consider North Carolina. 984 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:16,359 Speaker 3: I think a lot of that conversation came up with Kurtzignetty. 985 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,000 Speaker 2: Not this past season, but like after that first year 986 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 2: at IU, It's like, Okay, well, you know, how much 987 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:23,600 Speaker 2: do they have to pay to make sure he stays 988 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:26,759 Speaker 2: at IU? Because i U isn't Penn State, it isn't Alabama, 989 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 2: it isn't whatever. 990 00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:30,760 Speaker 3: But what are the isn't schools on that list? 991 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 4: I saw one of the names, it was Tommy Lloyd 992 00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 4: last night. Yeah, and I'm kind of thinking of myself, Man, 993 00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 4: isn't Arizona a great job? I mean, first off, if 994 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 4: you want to play the geography game, I'm not too 995 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 4: worried about UCLA and USC. I think I could have 996 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,240 Speaker 4: a pretty good footprint in the LA area or southern 997 00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:50,520 Speaker 4: California area. Right from a recruiting standpoint, you know, if 998 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:52,120 Speaker 4: you want to stretch it up a little bit more, 999 00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:54,400 Speaker 4: you got to go ally up to Gonzaga, you know, 1000 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 4: really to have a program you're worried about, right, you know, 1001 00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:00,680 Speaker 4: maybe being in the Big twelve geographic it's not like 1002 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:04,440 Speaker 4: super ideal, but you know, from a basketball standpoint, it's 1003 00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:08,400 Speaker 4: a great conference. So yeah, to me, it's kind of like, 1004 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 4: wouldn't you be pretty content there? I mean, financially, I 1005 00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:13,360 Speaker 4: guess I'd have to look at dollars and cents a 1006 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 4: little bit. But you know, when you're in North Carolina, 1007 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:17,520 Speaker 4: I mean, right there in your own backyard, you got 1008 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:21,600 Speaker 4: a whole lot of competition. From obviously a duke standpoint there, 1009 00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:23,800 Speaker 4: So that was a name when I saw that mentioned. 1010 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 4: Obviously I think Tommy Lloyd's a great coach, but I'm like, 1011 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:30,080 Speaker 4: you know, isn't Arizona pretty close to being on that 1012 00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:33,719 Speaker 4: same level present day? At least? I mean, and that's 1013 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 4: the credit to Tommy Lloyd, by the way. 1014 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:37,720 Speaker 1: And they've got history of art Arizona too. 1015 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,719 Speaker 4: I don't actually got Carolina history, but still they've got 1016 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 4: enough that I think, and clearly from you know, not 1017 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:47,960 Speaker 4: that they've been nil crazy, but they've done enough. And 1018 00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:49,759 Speaker 4: you know, Tommy Lloyd's done a nice job at the 1019 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:52,520 Speaker 4: International Pipeline, which I think kind of dates back to 1020 00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:54,840 Speaker 4: his Gonzaga days. But when I saw that news last night, 1021 00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 4: I thought to myself, you know, what if Purdue advances 1022 00:45:57,680 --> 00:45:59,840 Speaker 4: and Tommy Lloyd's got a field a few more questions 1023 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:03,120 Speaker 4: that with Arizona there potentially in the Elite eight, might 1024 00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:04,240 Speaker 4: be good news for the Boilers. 1025 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:07,000 Speaker 1: Here's another thing that's crazy too, And I chalk this 1026 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,400 Speaker 1: up more to fans maybe being hopeful than anything real 1027 00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:13,160 Speaker 1: to it. But there's a group of I saw a 1028 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,480 Speaker 1: group of online folks that are Kentucky fans are like, 1029 00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:19,479 Speaker 1: bring Calip Perry back, get rid of Pope, Let's bring 1030 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:23,759 Speaker 1: Calip Perry back. Let's would anything shock you at this 1031 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 1: point you smile and you drop your head, James, But 1032 00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:28,719 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, would you just would 1033 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 1: you go, oh, man, I never saw that one coming, 1034 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:32,560 Speaker 1: or would you go out? That's college basketball in twenty 1035 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 1: twenty five. 1036 00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:38,040 Speaker 2: Honestly I dropped my head. But I dropped my head 1037 00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:39,120 Speaker 2: probably because. 1038 00:46:38,840 --> 00:46:40,040 Speaker 1: I don't think cal would go back. 1039 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,560 Speaker 2: I can't still rule it out, but yeah, that would 1040 00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 2: be that would be a wild one for sure. 1041 00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:44,319 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1042 00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:48,520 Speaker 4: It's like Dustin May's name with North Carolina. I mean, 1043 00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:52,000 Speaker 4: you know, don't you have a pretty good thing going 1044 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:54,359 Speaker 4: at Michigan financially you seem to be in a pretty 1045 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 4: healthy state. I mean, look at what he was able 1046 00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 4: to do from a portal standpoint. And you know, I 1047 00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:01,200 Speaker 4: think you got to ask yourself as a coach too, 1048 00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:04,800 Speaker 4: do you want to be sitting on that front burner 1049 00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 4: and when you're out of Carolina, or you're out of Kentucky, 1050 00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:09,919 Speaker 4: or you're at Hell, when you're at in Indiana, you're 1051 00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:12,719 Speaker 4: on the front burner, and that thing's gonna get hot 1052 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,640 Speaker 4: and or much quicker than it is at other stops. 1053 00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:17,799 Speaker 4: And I get some people, I'd say, well, if you're 1054 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,240 Speaker 4: at a football school, you're not going to be getting 1055 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:22,719 Speaker 4: the major nil money this and that. Okay, I can 1056 00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 4: listen to that conversation a little bit, but I don't 1057 00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 4: know there's something to do with a I'm pretty content 1058 00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:30,759 Speaker 4: with my situation financially. We got a good thing going. 1059 00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:34,280 Speaker 4: I don't need to be, you know, signing every baby 1060 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:36,799 Speaker 4: and you know, kissing every grandma when I go out 1061 00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:37,719 Speaker 4: to get coffee in the morning. 1062 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:39,759 Speaker 1: Well, you look at someone like Kurt Signetti two years 1063 00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:42,400 Speaker 1: at IU, obviously had a tremendous first year, makes the 1064 00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:45,520 Speaker 1: College Football Playoff, wins it all in the second year, 1065 00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 1: is making as much or more money than anybody else 1066 00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,640 Speaker 1: out there. Got a nice little setup going on down 1067 00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:52,719 Speaker 1: in Bloomington. His family's been there for a couple of 1068 00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:56,520 Speaker 1: years now, and he's laid the foundation for more success 1069 00:47:56,600 --> 00:48:00,719 Speaker 1: in the future. You know, a guy like that, where 1070 00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:02,799 Speaker 1: else does he want to go at this point in time? 1071 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean these are all valid questions, but I 1072 00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:09,960 Speaker 2: also just wonder how much do you know coaches are 1073 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:12,640 Speaker 2: crazy and they care about being competitive, which is why 1074 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:15,320 Speaker 2: they're in that field. And does any party you say 1075 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 2: it's North Carolina? I can I not look at that. 1076 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:23,680 Speaker 2: I mean, let's be honest. That helps them as a brand. 1077 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:25,560 Speaker 2: It's a school that Michael Jordan went to. 1078 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:28,279 Speaker 1: It's funny I was telling you all the things they 1079 00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:30,400 Speaker 1: were talking about at the Charlotte radio station this morning. 1080 00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 1: You brought up Gordon Hayward at Butler and what his 1081 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:36,600 Speaker 1: role is going to be there. He was on a 1082 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:39,080 Speaker 1: podcast yesterday and the guys down there were talking about 1083 00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:41,279 Speaker 1: the fact that he said, you know who would be 1084 00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:45,719 Speaker 1: the perfect guy there, It's Brad Stevens. He'd be absolutely 1085 00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:48,720 Speaker 1: the perfect guy for North Carolina. And then the logical 1086 00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:51,440 Speaker 1: part of your brain goes the dude's making millions of 1087 00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:55,040 Speaker 1: dollars to run one of the most storied franchises in 1088 00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:59,480 Speaker 1: all of sports, and he's got an NBA championship there, 1089 00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:02,600 Speaker 1: they're along the way towards competing for another one. That 1090 00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:04,560 Speaker 1: core looks like they're going to be there for a while. 1091 00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:06,439 Speaker 1: And he's making a ton of money and he doesn't 1092 00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 1: have to get on airplanes every three days, and he 1093 00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:11,520 Speaker 1: doesn't have to prepare scouting reports, and he doesn't have 1094 00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:14,080 Speaker 1: to recruit kids and make sure that they're getting paid 1095 00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:17,200 Speaker 1: enough money. Would he want to do that in today's world? 1096 00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:19,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, the time commitment. 1097 00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:21,560 Speaker 2: I've talked to a few coaches about that, ands the 1098 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:25,840 Speaker 2: changing landscape, and boy, it's just a lot you're I mean, obviously, 1099 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:27,600 Speaker 2: when you're a college coach, you're not going to have 1100 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:31,279 Speaker 2: the same sort of schedule as a Rick Carlisle in 1101 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:33,200 Speaker 2: the NBA, which is more said, and you have to 1102 00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:35,439 Speaker 2: contracts people signed and they can't just up and leave 1103 00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,919 Speaker 2: after every year. It's a year round thing. And now 1104 00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:43,919 Speaker 2: it's it's something that to monitor so much. I mean, 1105 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:46,759 Speaker 2: if you don't play a guy for a couple of 1106 00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:50,320 Speaker 2: games because they're being I don't know, a poor participant 1107 00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 2: in practice, whatever, you have. 1108 00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:51,760 Speaker 4: To worry about. 1109 00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:54,239 Speaker 2: Okay, in a month from now, is he gonna be 1110 00:49:54,239 --> 00:49:56,759 Speaker 2: thinking about leaving here like, those are the conversations that 1111 00:49:56,840 --> 00:49:58,520 Speaker 2: you have to have. And I think that's why it 1112 00:49:58,600 --> 00:50:02,239 Speaker 2: makes it so fascinating when we look at the teams 1113 00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:04,719 Speaker 2: that are able to turn it around or build it 1114 00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:07,520 Speaker 2: up in one year like a Michigan and the teams 1115 00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:10,239 Speaker 2: that try to do that at Indiana up with Darren 1116 00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:11,840 Speaker 2: Devrees and it just doesn't work out like that. And 1117 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:13,359 Speaker 2: I want to be clear, I'm not saying like they 1118 00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:15,360 Speaker 2: have behavior issues at I you all those guys. 1119 00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:16,480 Speaker 3: Seem like great young men. 1120 00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:20,359 Speaker 2: But boy, when you're able to turn around quickly, you're 1121 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:22,239 Speaker 2: a genius, you're a god, You're all these things. When 1122 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:24,400 Speaker 2: you're not able to do that, it's like, well should 1123 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:28,000 Speaker 2: you still be here? So yeah, it's a tough landscape 1124 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:28,359 Speaker 2: for sure. 1125 00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:30,399 Speaker 1: So let me ask you something, Kevin, because you're more 1126 00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:32,360 Speaker 1: familiar with how the whole thing works there, and I 1127 00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:34,959 Speaker 1: think I am too. But you take a look at Butler, 1128 00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:37,160 Speaker 1: who's looking for a brand new head coach now, and 1129 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:39,520 Speaker 1: you look at the Big East, which is as competitive 1130 00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:41,239 Speaker 1: as anybody. They got two teams in the final in 1131 00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:43,720 Speaker 1: the Sweet sixteen, right, they got Saint John's and Yukon, 1132 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:46,719 Speaker 1: who Saint John's is coached by Rick Patino. Now I 1133 00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 1: think we take them legitimately seriously. Oh up, between the 1134 00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 1: coach and the players and what they've done, you kond 1135 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:57,160 Speaker 1: obviously with Danny Hurley has been tremendous. What kind of coach, 1136 00:50:57,280 --> 00:51:00,040 Speaker 1: realistically do you get at Butler that is going to 1137 00:50:59,880 --> 00:51:03,160 Speaker 1: be able to at some point, at least every few 1138 00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 1: years compete with the Yukons and the Saint John's of 1139 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:07,960 Speaker 1: the Big East. 1140 00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 4: Well, I think that's a hard question because Butler and 1141 00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:13,600 Speaker 4: Saint John's are a Butler and Saint John's or Butler 1142 00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:15,719 Speaker 4: and Yukon. They're just shopping at different stores. 1143 00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:18,359 Speaker 1: Right, And that's that's my question. Okay, if you're looking 1144 00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:21,680 Speaker 1: at head coaches, wouldn't it be a guy like a 1145 00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:25,440 Speaker 1: Chris Holtman who had some success here the last time 1146 00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:26,000 Speaker 1: he was here? 1147 00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:28,960 Speaker 4: Well, again, is it just in the family or I 1148 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:30,840 Speaker 4: don't know, would have been healthy for Butler to have 1149 00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:33,680 Speaker 4: someone out of the family walk in there and say 1150 00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:36,120 Speaker 4: if we're serious about that, Not to the level of 1151 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:39,640 Speaker 4: Kurt Signetti, you know, and walking into Bloomington, but kind 1152 00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:42,360 Speaker 4: of like that, if we're gonna be serious about playing 1153 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:47,000 Speaker 4: in the Big East, then we need to strap up. 1154 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:51,160 Speaker 4: We need to make sure that financially we are doing 1155 00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:53,200 Speaker 4: things at a much different level than we currently are. 1156 00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:57,160 Speaker 4: He and is that possible? And would that person be 1157 00:51:57,239 --> 00:51:59,960 Speaker 4: looked at cross side? Does that person have the clout 1158 00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:03,400 Speaker 4: to do that? I'm sure Kurt Signetti, you imagine some 1159 00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:06,960 Speaker 4: of the eye rolls that he probably got from home people, 1160 00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:09,239 Speaker 4: you know, roll my eyes so hard they almost went to. 1161 00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,520 Speaker 3: The floor within that ile like department. 1162 00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:13,759 Speaker 4: Can you imagine Signetti walking into your office saying all 1163 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:15,200 Speaker 4: the stuff that he did and then walking out in 1164 00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:17,759 Speaker 4: the what you're gossiping about behind closed doors? Yeah, after 1165 00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:20,560 Speaker 4: he walks out and then obviously he got the last laugh. 1166 00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:23,560 Speaker 4: So I think Butler's at a big crossloads, not just 1167 00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:26,120 Speaker 4: more from a head coaching standpoint, more from a again, 1168 00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:31,880 Speaker 4: what is our financial commitment to this university's basketball program 1169 00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:33,680 Speaker 4: in regards to the Big East, Because you kind in 1170 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:36,239 Speaker 4: Saint John's, you know, they're going to Saint Elmo every night. 1171 00:52:36,280 --> 00:52:40,759 Speaker 4: They're not going to you know, Wendy's, although I did 1172 00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:44,000 Speaker 4: by choice, though I'd rather go to Wendy's. 1173 00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:46,439 Speaker 2: To be honest, I'll well, I ain't going that far, 1174 00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:48,640 Speaker 2: but I love me at Wendy's. 1175 00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:50,560 Speaker 3: Four for four back in high school.

He posted? 1188 00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:15,279 Speaker 4: Was that a culturity out on? Or is that a 1189 00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:16,839 Speaker 4: Florida Gators? You know what, I got to go back 1190 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:18,120 Speaker 4: and look at and slow it down. 1191 00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:20,359 Speaker 2: You know, I didn't analyze the tape as much as 1192 00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:23,160 Speaker 2: the people in my mentions yesterday. Boy, social media can 1193 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:26,120 Speaker 2: be a lot. You post what was it? A ten 1194 00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:28,640 Speaker 2: second clip of him making a very routine throw. People 1195 00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:30,200 Speaker 2: were telling me it's the greatest or ever. It's the 1196 00:53:30,239 --> 00:53:32,839 Speaker 2: worst store ever. It's like, boy, the conversation has changed 1197 00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:35,440 Speaker 2: a little bit. But yeah, from what I understand, he 1198 00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:37,879 Speaker 2: still wants a trade and he's just kind of out 1199 00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:40,680 Speaker 2: there and he's getting back to playing football. He did 1200 00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:42,480 Speaker 2: have this caption that I kind of was like, hmmm, 1201 00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:45,920 Speaker 2: he has one day or day one. 1202 00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:46,719 Speaker 3: With the question mark. 1203 00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:49,560 Speaker 2: That was one of his captions, and I was thinking 1204 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:51,440 Speaker 2: to myself, all right, like, you know, is that one 1205 00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:53,400 Speaker 2: of those things where you're still believing in yourself? 1206 00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 4: Are you saying? 1207 00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:56,399 Speaker 2: Some fans were like, what do you mean by day one? 1208 00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:58,200 Speaker 2: Like is that week one? And I'm like, I don't 1209 00:53:58,480 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 2: want to go that far. 1210 00:53:59,200 --> 00:53:59,480 Speaker 1: He's not. 1211 00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:02,360 Speaker 2: I don't think that there's a realistic path for Anthony 1212 00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:05,279 Speaker 2: to be the starting quarterback here in Indianapolis. Again, we 1213 00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:07,600 Speaker 2: can actually probably get into that a little bit more. 1214 00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:08,400 Speaker 1: Here's the question. 1215 00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:11,040 Speaker 2: But one thing I want to finish on as far 1216 00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:13,400 Speaker 2: as Anthony, at least he's back out there and throwing 1217 00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:15,120 Speaker 2: in some capacity. I don't even do that for the Colds. 1218 00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:17,279 Speaker 2: But the question most teams probably have is like can 1219 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:20,319 Speaker 2: you play football? And I'm not saying like at a 1220 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:22,160 Speaker 2: high level, just can you play it? Can you see 1221 00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:24,279 Speaker 2: well enough to play it? Because the throw he's made 1222 00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 2: in that video with the same world you saw in practice. 1223 00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:29,040 Speaker 1: So a question for both of you guys. If he's 1224 00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:32,440 Speaker 1: not traded by then does Anthony Richardson take part in 1225 00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:33,680 Speaker 1: OTAs ye. 1226 00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:37,759 Speaker 4: First off, analyzing captions of younger people, you might as 1227 00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 4: well sign me up another hair transplant. I mean, like, 1228 00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:42,000 Speaker 4: there's no chance at hell I'm gonna act. 1229 00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:45,040 Speaker 2: We haven't reached the stage of Anthony Richardson changed his 1230 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:48,200 Speaker 2: profile picture too, my go whatever. He removed this person 1231 00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:49,279 Speaker 2: from his bio. 1232 00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:55,000 Speaker 3: About especially at the college world, it's even crazy. 1233 00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:57,279 Speaker 4: So yesterday the big news was one of the Notre 1234 00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:00,640 Speaker 4: Dame transfers. They had two kids transfer yesterday from basketball program. 1235 00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:06,000 Speaker 4: One of them followed Butler's basketball program immediately, I'll what 1236 00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:06,799 Speaker 4: do you read into it? 1237 00:55:06,880 --> 00:55:09,640 Speaker 6: I'll one up you so I know we're just talking 1238 00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:12,120 Speaker 6: about Hubert Davis. His son is on the team. He 1239 00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:15,920 Speaker 6: posted something yesterday of him and picture him and his dad, 1240 00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:19,720 Speaker 6: and he took the North Carolina out of his jersey, 1241 00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:25,319 Speaker 6: like photoshopped it out. Like it's just yeah, I'm not 1242 00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 6: and I'm a young person, and I'm even like, come on. 1243 00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:32,239 Speaker 4: Y'all parenting teenagers, parenting early early college ays. As far 1244 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:36,120 Speaker 4: as Richardson, yeah, I would assume from the Richardson camp 1245 00:55:36,719 --> 00:55:39,880 Speaker 4: you would want to be with an organization by mid April, 1246 00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:43,440 Speaker 4: like you don't want to miss any sort of springtime. 1247 00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:48,080 Speaker 4: Wherever you're at, whether you're here or whether certainly you're elsewhere, 1248 00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:50,319 Speaker 4: you got to learn a playbook, you know. I think 1249 00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:52,160 Speaker 4: for a new quarterback, phase one, in phase two of 1250 00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:54,320 Speaker 4: the off season program is really important, even before you 1251 00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:57,399 Speaker 4: get to OTA's Ota is Again, just to clarify, that's 1252 00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:00,319 Speaker 4: the actual eleven on eleven period of the spring. So 1253 00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:04,040 Speaker 4: that is kind of my next question is, Okay, March 1254 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:07,600 Speaker 4: twenty fifth, the Colts start what their offseason program, James, 1255 00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:11,160 Speaker 4: It's like April twentieth something whatever that Monday is. Yeah, 1256 00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:13,920 Speaker 4: so that's three and a half weeks. But I'm looking 1257 00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:15,920 Speaker 4: at my calendar correctly here. Okay, so three and a 1258 00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:17,960 Speaker 4: half weeks. That's kind of where I'm at of like, 1259 00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:21,359 Speaker 4: all right, just before the draft right now. Again, there's 1260 00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:22,920 Speaker 4: part of me in the draft. It's like, are there 1261 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:25,799 Speaker 4: any teams out there that are like, Hey, if we 1262 00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,560 Speaker 4: don't find the quarterback we kind of are intrigued by 1263 00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:33,760 Speaker 4: in round four, then we'll make a move for Richardson. 1264 00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:38,040 Speaker 4: Post draft, you do see that that first week of May, 1265 00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:42,160 Speaker 4: you do kind of see some activity around the league. Hey, 1266 00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 4: we went in the draft thinking we were gonna get 1267 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:48,279 Speaker 4: said position. The draft board didn't play out in that manner. Now, 1268 00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:50,640 Speaker 4: let's go back and get you know, didn't the Colts 1269 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:52,880 Speaker 4: sign like Nick Foles. I think it was in like 1270 00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:55,000 Speaker 4: a May period at some point here. I don't know 1271 00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:56,879 Speaker 4: if that's maybe the best analogy. The Colts have signed 1272 00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:00,239 Speaker 4: some veteran safeties definitely in that May time period. So 1273 00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:02,640 Speaker 4: that's kind of where I'm at with Richardson. I would 1274 00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:05,640 Speaker 4: assume the Colts would want a draft pick this year 1275 00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:09,640 Speaker 4: for him. They don't have a ton of draft picks. 1276 00:57:09,719 --> 00:57:11,239 Speaker 4: I mean, I guess they do, but it's more in 1277 00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:13,839 Speaker 4: Day three. But I don't know, is there any part 1278 00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:16,440 Speaker 4: of the Colts saying, Hey, if we're gonna trade them, 1279 00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:19,880 Speaker 4: why don't we put parameters on the pick? And why 1280 00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:22,200 Speaker 4: don't we say it's a twenty twenty seven draft pick. 1281 00:57:22,520 --> 00:57:26,880 Speaker 4: And if Richardson goes to Minnesota or New Orleans and 1282 00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:30,720 Speaker 4: he starts eight games, that pick now climbs up to 1283 00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:34,120 Speaker 4: a fourth rounder, Versus if he doesn't meet that playing 1284 00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:37,080 Speaker 4: time threshold, it becomes a fifth rounder. And again I'm 1285 00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:38,600 Speaker 4: just kind of throwing out numbers. 1286 00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:42,200 Speaker 1: All right, we will keep an eye on the Anthony Richardson. Uh, 1287 00:57:42,360 --> 00:57:43,920 Speaker 1: I guess it's the watch. We'll just call it an 1288 00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:45,560 Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson watch. 1289 00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:47,640 Speaker 3: He also posted basketball highlights. 1290 00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:51,720 Speaker 1: I was gonna say something about that James right before he's. 1291 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:56,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, and honestly, Caleb, my first reaction, maybe I'm overthinking. 1292 00:57:56,920 --> 00:58:00,360 Speaker 2: This is just why right, Like you want to be 1293 00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:03,800 Speaker 2: taken seriously, especially at this stage of your career. That's 1294 00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:06,200 Speaker 2: probably not the best look. I'm sure guys are playing 1295 00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:07,600 Speaker 2: basketball pick up basketball, but. 1296 00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:09,600 Speaker 1: We've seen worse things on guys' social media. 1297 00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:10,480 Speaker 3: That is true. 1298 00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:12,640 Speaker 2: Uh, cooka nkul is somebody who's in a little hot 1299 00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 2: water right now. So I guess Anthony Richardson from that 1300 00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:16,560 Speaker 2: perspective is very pristine. 1301 00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:19,560 Speaker 4: Speaking of quarterbacks, does Dana Orlowski hate for Nanda Mendoza? 1302 00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:24,080 Speaker 1: Dude, it sounds like it. I mean that was Is 1303 00:58:24,120 --> 00:58:26,240 Speaker 1: it the fact that the guy he's pushing is also 1304 00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:29,360 Speaker 1: a client of an organization he's connected with, So. 1305 00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:32,280 Speaker 4: Cia I didn't consume all the content, so feel free 1306 00:58:32,280 --> 00:58:34,919 Speaker 4: to add to this.

But hey, look you can have some 1349 01:00:31,320 --> 01:00:34,640 Speaker 4: questions about whatever. Mendoza being a slam dunk. I thought 1350 01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:36,600 Speaker 4: it was interesting in the combine when Daden Briugler joined 1351 01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:38,720 Speaker 4: US James he mentioned if arch Manny was in this 1352 01:00:38,800 --> 01:00:41,400 Speaker 4: draft class, and I Dane does not strike me as 1353 01:00:41,400 --> 01:00:43,640 Speaker 4: anybody hot takey like we would be having a real 1354 01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:46,760 Speaker 4: conversation about who would go one, which again surprises some 1355 01:00:46,800 --> 01:00:49,320 Speaker 4: people given you know how arch man he played football 1356 01:00:49,360 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 4: last year. 1357 01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:51,160 Speaker 3: Maybe not given his last name, but. 1358 01:00:51,720 --> 01:00:54,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, the whole.

James back at home the night 1382 01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:51,320 Speaker 1: to take on the Lakers over at the Fieldhouse. Seven 1383 01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:53,919 Speaker 1: o'clock tip six thirty year time in ninety three, five 1384 01:01:53,920 --> 01:01:56,760 Speaker 1: and one oh seven to five the fan Andrew Nemhart, 1385 01:01:56,800 --> 01:02:00,480 Speaker 1: Aaron Nee Smith, Pascal siakam Obi topping what they have 1386 01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:03,920 Speaker 1: in common for tonight's game, James Boyd. They're all probable, right, 1387 01:02:03,960 --> 01:02:06,280 Speaker 1: They're all probable to play in that game tonight. The 1388 01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:14,400 Speaker 1: Lakers injury report questionable for Adu Thierro Ruyachimura and Marcus Smart. 1389 01:02:14,720 --> 01:02:17,840 Speaker 1: They are. Marcus Smart is doubtful, the other two questionable. 1390 01:02:17,960 --> 01:02:20,880 Speaker 2: Hey, as long as Lebron James and Luka Doncics are playing, 1391 01:02:20,960 --> 01:02:23,960 Speaker 2: I think a lot of probably Lakers transplants will be 1392 01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:24,800 Speaker 2: a game of chortthhouse. 1393 01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:25,680 Speaker 3: But a chance to. 1394 01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:28,560 Speaker 2: Another win, push it to two, spoil the party for 1395 01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:29,800 Speaker 2: old man James. 1396 01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:32,160 Speaker 4: So luc and Lebron are good. They didn't golf too much. 1397 01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:33,480 Speaker 4: An ending yesterday. 1398 01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:36,840 Speaker 1: Yesterday, is this the last time we ever seen Lebron 1399 01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:37,880 Speaker 1: James at the field House? 1400 01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:41,439 Speaker 4: Certainly a question, you know, I guess maybe more from 1401 01:02:41,440 --> 01:02:45,120 Speaker 4: a playing standpoint, but you know, as James pointed out yesterday, 1402 01:02:45,440 --> 01:02:48,160 Speaker 4: Lebron strikes me as an individual that probably will want 1403 01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:51,560 Speaker 4: to announce said retirement and maybe go on a little 1404 01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:52,400 Speaker 4: bit of a tour here. 1405 01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:55,000 Speaker 2: So exactly the gift that the Pacers give him next 1406 01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:57,280 Speaker 2: year during his final run will be great. And by 1407 01:02:57,360 --> 01:03:03,000 Speaker 2: the gift, I mean nothing. Could you imagine. 1408 01:03:02,440 --> 01:03:05,080 Speaker 1: Purdue getting ready for the Sweet sixteen that comes your 1409 01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:08,760 Speaker 1: way tomorrow against Texas.

I think their defense has been a lot 1425 01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:51,880 Speaker 2: different than what we've seen earlier this year. 1426 01:03:52,280 --> 01:03:54,360 Speaker 1: All right, so that comes your way seven to ten 1427 01:03:54,760 --> 01:03:57,880 Speaker 1: Thursday from San Jose.

How many times do you 1473 01:06:11,680 --> 01:06:15,400 Speaker 4: think Brad Stevens has received such a text in his 1474 01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:19,360 Speaker 4: life about pursuing a college basketball head coaching gig. 1475 01:06:20,440 --> 01:06:23,480 Speaker 3: Probably at least five times since he's left. 1476 01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:26,280 Speaker 4: Five five hundred has done it five times? 1477 01:06:26,600 --> 01:06:28,840 Speaker 2: Well, I was kind of like the different programs, but yeah, 1478 01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:30,640 Speaker 2: if you're going like the amount of times and he 1479 01:06:30,840 --> 01:06:34,000 Speaker 2: probably what twenty and it was this he's left. 1480 01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:36,680 Speaker 4: I mean, just like it's abated.

That happens to her often. 1491 01:07:01,560 --> 01:07:04,000 Speaker 1: You send your mom to voicemail all the time. 1492 01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:05,520 Speaker 3: No, no, she sends me to voicemail. 1493 01:07:05,560 --> 01:07:08,120 Speaker 1: Oh okay, it's even better. 1494 01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:10,959 Speaker 3: Mamano answered the phone. 1495 01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:12,200 Speaker 2: I told her if I would go on the game 1496 01:07:12,240 --> 01:07:14,320 Speaker 2: show and they say, who's your emergency contact? 1497 01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:15,320 Speaker 3: You are not the answer. 1498 01:07:16,400 --> 01:07:19,880 Speaker 1: One of my favorite lines of Sports Illustrated, Uh, somebody 1499 01:07:19,920 --> 01:07:21,920 Speaker 1: might have been Rick Riley did a long form piece 1500 01:07:21,960 --> 01:07:24,960 Speaker 1: on Fred Couples when he was just running the table 1501 01:07:25,120 --> 01:07:27,919 Speaker 1: back in the late nineties in golf, and they talked 1502 01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:30,680 Speaker 1: about him being so shy that he doesn't answer the 1503 01:07:30,720 --> 01:07:32,400 Speaker 1: phone at home, and they asked him why. He said 1504 01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:33,800 Speaker 1: someone might be on the other end. 1505 01:07:36,640 --> 01:07:38,520 Speaker 3: That's a good one, all right. 1506 01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:40,760 Speaker 1: Coming up at a moment, we'll talk Pacers basketball and 1507 01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:42,880 Speaker 1: more with Tony East as we continue The Fan Morning 1508 01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:45,240 Speaker 1: show ninety three five one oh seven to five the Fan. 1509 01:07:48,040 --> 01:07:50,160 Speaker 1: We have not talked a ton of NBA basketball so 1510 01:07:50,200 --> 01:07:52,320 Speaker 1: far this morning on this Wednesday at ninety three five 1511 01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:55,160 Speaker 1: one oh seven five the Fan. Well, we'll be talking 1512 01:07:55,160 --> 01:07:57,320 Speaker 1: about the Pacers who return home to the Fieldhouse a 1513 01:07:57,360 --> 01:08:00,120 Speaker 1: little bit later on tonight. I was noticing last night, 1514 01:08:00,160 --> 01:08:05,160 Speaker 1: in this never ending season of just outstanding offensive performances, 1515 01:08:05,200 --> 01:08:09,640 Speaker 1: we've seen We've seen eighty plus points, we've seen sixty 1516 01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:12,880 Speaker 1: plus points, We've seen crazy stat lines across the board. 1517 01:08:13,200 --> 01:08:16,120 Speaker 1: Nuggets won in Phoenix last night. Yok, it's so normal 1518 01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:20,439 Speaker 1: now twenty three, seventeen and seventeen from a center. It's 1519 01:08:20,479 --> 01:08:21,080 Speaker 1: just nuts. 1520 01:08:21,680 --> 01:08:24,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, he is one of the greatest basketball players to 1521 01:08:24,439 --> 01:08:27,040 Speaker 2: ever live, and he's still in his prime. 1522 01:08:28,040 --> 01:08:30,320 Speaker 1: Let's talk more NBA and Pacers in particular. We bring 1523 01:08:30,360 --> 01:08:33,800 Speaker 1: in our next guest, Tony East on the Paylesslookers Hotline. Tony, 1524 01:08:33,840 --> 01:08:38,160 Speaker 1: of course, one of the premiere Pacers writers at several 1525 01:08:38,160 --> 01:08:40,880 Speaker 1: different places, and we appreciate his time here today. Tony, 1526 01:08:40,920 --> 01:08:43,280 Speaker 1: good morning. What is it with the NBA that we're 1527 01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:47,000 Speaker 1: just seeing, night after night after night, just unbelievable stat 1528 01:08:47,040 --> 01:08:48,480 Speaker 1: lines and offensive outputs. 1529 01:08:49,280 --> 01:08:51,400 Speaker 8: Yeah, gosh, yok, it's the last night was crazy game 1530 01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:54,639 Speaker 8: winner two almost blew it, leaving Devin Booker wide open 1531 01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:58,439 Speaker 8: right after. But the scoreboard says that what look, the March. 1532 01:08:58,600 --> 01:09:01,720 Speaker 8: NBA is like this every year, like there are so 1533 01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:04,959 Speaker 8: many teams that aren't playing for anything, or they're seedings 1534 01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:08,960 Speaker 8: locked up, or somebody's heard or something that there's a 1535 01:09:08,960 --> 01:09:12,080 Speaker 8: lot of non competitive games or not good defensive teams, 1536 01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:14,240 Speaker 8: and look what you get when that happens. A lot 1537 01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:17,360 Speaker 8: of really high scoring games and a lot of blowouts. Thankfully, 1538 01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:19,240 Speaker 8: Nuggets Suns was not one of the blowouts. But there's 1539 01:09:19,280 --> 01:09:22,599 Speaker 8: a lot of a lot less watchable basketball this time 1540 01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:22,920 Speaker 8: of year. 1541 01:09:22,920 --> 01:09:26,000 Speaker 4: In the NBA Circle City Spin, where you can find 1542 01:09:26,080 --> 01:09:29,120 Speaker 4: Tony East's work and we always appreciate his insight when 1543 01:09:29,120 --> 01:09:32,599 Speaker 4: he hops on these airways. Is it ten games left, Tony? 1544 01:09:32,680 --> 01:09:34,160 Speaker 8: Is that right on the dot? 1545 01:09:34,240 --> 01:09:37,600 Speaker 4: Yes, tend to go and fans can cheer for what 1546 01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:40,479 Speaker 4: three wins? If you go north to three, then you 1547 01:09:40,520 --> 01:09:43,360 Speaker 4: start to sweat lottery odds? Is that right? Yeah? 1548 01:09:43,400 --> 01:09:44,960 Speaker 1: Three would give right now? 1549 01:09:45,160 --> 01:09:47,360 Speaker 8: There are three wins behind the Kings, who are the 1550 01:09:47,400 --> 01:09:50,840 Speaker 8: fourth worst record, and the you know that's the lottery 1551 01:09:50,920 --> 01:09:53,439 Speaker 8: ending is for. But the top three are the teams 1552 01:09:53,439 --> 01:09:58,160 Speaker 8: to end with fifty two percent chance at top four pick, 1553 01:09:58,280 --> 01:10:00,000 Speaker 8: and then the fourth pick it goes to forty eight. 1554 01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:02,320 Speaker 8: So if the Pacers want to maximize their odds of 1555 01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:06,439 Speaker 8: keeping the pick, fewer than three wins guarantees that three wins. 1556 01:10:06,439 --> 01:10:08,320 Speaker 8: They did the Kings to win once and there is 1557 01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:12,040 Speaker 8: a King's next game next Sunday or this coming Sunday, 1558 01:10:12,120 --> 01:10:15,760 Speaker 8: so three is probably safe, but two or less as 1559 01:10:15,760 --> 01:10:16,960 Speaker 8: a guarantee. 1560 01:10:16,479 --> 01:10:19,599 Speaker 4: Get Pacers Lakers tonight looks like really all the front 1561 01:10:19,640 --> 01:10:22,760 Speaker 4: line players for both teams that are available should be 1562 01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:23,559 Speaker 4: played in this game. 1563 01:10:23,640 --> 01:10:25,720 Speaker 3: Lebron and Luca included in that. 1564 01:10:26,080 --> 01:10:27,920 Speaker 4: Okay, let's shift gears a little bit of the draft, 1565 01:10:28,640 --> 01:10:30,320 Speaker 4: you know, I think the NBA draft has taught us 1566 01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:33,640 Speaker 4: over the years trying to force a position is a 1567 01:10:33,640 --> 01:10:37,080 Speaker 4: bit risky, a bit greedy. It is simply you need 1568 01:10:37,120 --> 01:10:41,360 Speaker 4: to take best player available. What if that best player 1569 01:10:41,360 --> 01:10:42,679 Speaker 4: available is Darius Acuff. 1570 01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:48,120 Speaker 8: I can't imagine the Pacers take a tiny guard, right, 1571 01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:51,879 Speaker 8: I mean, has he been that pantilizing in the tournament 1572 01:10:51,920 --> 01:10:55,360 Speaker 8: that people view him over Darren Peterson and Cam Boozer 1573 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:57,800 Speaker 8: and and aj Now is that a thing? 1574 01:10:58,120 --> 01:10:58,559 Speaker 2: I think? 1575 01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:00,400 Speaker 4: I think that that's part of it. But I also 1576 01:11:00,439 --> 01:11:02,880 Speaker 4: think my hand is raised here. We which is weird 1577 01:11:02,920 --> 01:11:04,920 Speaker 4: to say, we probably didn't do a good enough job 1578 01:11:04,960 --> 01:11:08,360 Speaker 4: paying attention to him in the SEC regular season, Like 1579 01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:10,760 Speaker 4: I think a lot of this was happening. I think, 1580 01:11:10,840 --> 01:11:12,800 Speaker 4: and again my hand is raised, we just kind of 1581 01:11:12,840 --> 01:11:15,439 Speaker 4: forced ourselves into the oh it's a four person draft thing. 1582 01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:18,879 Speaker 4: Now do you disagree on the first part, like foreseen, 1583 01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:23,080 Speaker 4: positional whatever, need over best player available? 1584 01:11:23,120 --> 01:11:25,240 Speaker 8: I guess no, no, no, I am a best player 1585 01:11:25,280 --> 01:11:28,840 Speaker 8: available guy. Now what it mostly reason? I mean we 1586 01:11:28,840 --> 01:11:31,320 Speaker 8: were all around for them picking Goga when they had 1587 01:11:31,840 --> 01:11:34,719 Speaker 8: Turner and Tibonas and then they would play Kyle O'Quinn 1588 01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:36,920 Speaker 8: and Jakar Sampson over him and he never played and 1589 01:11:37,080 --> 01:11:39,680 Speaker 8: got cut. You know, like within if you if you 1590 01:11:39,760 --> 01:11:42,240 Speaker 8: are loaded at a position, I suppose it's a little different, 1591 01:11:42,280 --> 01:11:44,880 Speaker 8: but especially with a top four pick, which is what 1592 01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:46,680 Speaker 8: they're you know, if they have a pick they're going 1593 01:11:46,760 --> 01:11:47,000 Speaker 8: to have. 1594 01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:48,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, you pick the best guy. 1595 01:11:48,439 --> 01:11:51,200 Speaker 8: And you know, I think TJ McConnell was their only 1596 01:11:51,240 --> 01:11:54,400 Speaker 8: player who was on the Pacers five years ago that 1597 01:11:54,479 --> 01:11:56,920 Speaker 8: is still on the team now. Maybe you know that's it, 1598 01:11:57,000 --> 01:11:59,599 Speaker 8: and uh, you know, your team just changes so much. 1599 01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:01,640 Speaker 8: And I gets that's different when you're a winner and 1600 01:12:01,680 --> 01:12:04,360 Speaker 8: you're trying to retain your talent. But with the way 1601 01:12:04,400 --> 01:12:06,920 Speaker 8: the NBA is with roster turnover, like you just never 1602 01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:09,080 Speaker 8: know if you're picking for fit now your team might 1603 01:12:09,080 --> 01:12:10,880 Speaker 8: look different at the time. So yes, I think you 1604 01:12:11,360 --> 01:12:13,360 Speaker 8: pick the best guy and try to figure it out. 1605 01:12:13,439 --> 01:12:17,120 Speaker 8: But I do understand the Pacers in their current specific 1606 01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:19,880 Speaker 8: situation caring a little bit more about fit to the 1607 01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:22,439 Speaker 8: average team picking in the top four ward because they're 1608 01:12:22,439 --> 01:12:25,439 Speaker 8: a contender in theory right now next season, right like, 1609 01:12:25,520 --> 01:12:28,040 Speaker 8: they need contributors right this second. So if they believe 1610 01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:30,639 Speaker 8: one of the four is going to be very good 1611 01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:32,680 Speaker 8: and can help them the most right now, perhaps that 1612 01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:35,040 Speaker 8: is a little bit of a booster. That's not a 1613 01:12:35,080 --> 01:12:36,920 Speaker 8: huge deal, and I do not think that's a cup 1614 01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:38,840 Speaker 8: for them, especially at the time where small guards are 1615 01:12:39,400 --> 01:12:40,840 Speaker 8: not very popular in the NBA. 1616 01:12:40,920 --> 01:12:43,840 Speaker 3: Let's say again we're talking to Tony East. 1617 01:12:43,880 --> 01:12:46,280 Speaker 2: You can listen to him on Locked on Pacers as 1618 01:12:46,320 --> 01:12:48,360 Speaker 2: well subscribed to a Circle City Spin where you get 1619 01:12:48,360 --> 01:12:52,880 Speaker 2: Pacers and Fever coverage in the same outlet. Tony, when 1620 01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:56,479 Speaker 2: I look at this Pacer season, and obviously it's been rough. 1621 01:12:56,680 --> 01:12:59,479 Speaker 2: It's been without Tyre's Halliburton, but he's also had some 1622 01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:01,400 Speaker 2: weird things happened off the court with the shingles, and 1623 01:13:01,400 --> 01:13:03,960 Speaker 2: we haven't had an update since I think last time 1624 01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:05,840 Speaker 2: you might have been on how's he doing. 1625 01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:10,840 Speaker 8: Yeah, he has been back with the team, but not 1626 01:13:11,160 --> 01:13:13,719 Speaker 8: on the bench this time. We asked for Carlisle about 1627 01:13:13,720 --> 01:13:16,200 Speaker 8: that in Milwaukee. I believe I can't remember one of 1628 01:13:16,200 --> 01:13:20,280 Speaker 8: their recent road games. You know, it's a longer like 1629 01:13:20,360 --> 01:13:23,639 Speaker 8: thing coming back from shingles, right and it did disrupt 1630 01:13:23,680 --> 01:13:26,679 Speaker 8: his rehab to some extent, like you can't be back 1631 01:13:26,720 --> 01:13:29,479 Speaker 8: on the floor right away, So his schedule's got a 1632 01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:31,599 Speaker 8: little changed by that. But I would assume if he's 1633 01:13:31,680 --> 01:13:33,400 Speaker 8: back with the team that yes, he is back on 1634 01:13:33,439 --> 01:13:36,120 Speaker 8: the floor and able to do at least some things. 1635 01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:39,000 Speaker 8: But who knows the specific reason he's not on the bench, 1636 01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:43,000 Speaker 8: whether it's some level of contagion, if it can still spread, 1637 01:13:43,080 --> 01:13:45,120 Speaker 8: or if there's a rash involved or anything like that. 1638 01:13:45,160 --> 01:13:47,360 Speaker 8: But we have not seen him since. But he is, 1639 01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:49,559 Speaker 8: according to Rick, back with the team now, so I'd 1640 01:13:49,560 --> 01:13:51,200 Speaker 8: presume his rehab schedules back. 1641 01:13:51,120 --> 01:13:53,560 Speaker 1: Is planned totally. We know every injury, even if it 1642 01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:55,679 Speaker 1: sounds the same, as a little bit unique and different 1643 01:13:55,680 --> 01:13:57,920 Speaker 1: to the individual who suffered it. But do you take 1644 01:13:57,960 --> 01:14:02,280 Speaker 1: anything from the return that the fairly early return by 1645 01:14:02,360 --> 01:14:05,280 Speaker 1: Jason Tatum and way he's been playing basketball and what 1646 01:14:05,320 --> 01:14:07,479 Speaker 1: the Celtics have been doing since he rejoined the team, 1647 01:14:07,920 --> 01:14:10,720 Speaker 1: is that optimistic for Tyrese Haliburton, who will get a 1648 01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:14,120 Speaker 1: lot more time to rest and recover and heal than 1649 01:14:14,120 --> 01:14:14,680 Speaker 1: Tatum did. 1650 01:14:15,240 --> 01:14:17,920 Speaker 8: Yeah, there's so many data points with Achilles recoveries, and 1651 01:14:17,960 --> 01:14:20,760 Speaker 8: Tatum's is a fun another one now that he came 1652 01:14:20,800 --> 01:14:22,639 Speaker 8: back and I think like ten months like they're saying, 1653 01:14:22,680 --> 01:14:25,679 Speaker 8: And what was unique about him is he got hurt 1654 01:14:25,720 --> 01:14:27,640 Speaker 8: in New York City like they're playing the Knicks the 1655 01:14:27,720 --> 01:14:29,400 Speaker 8: night it happened, So he was able to have his 1656 01:14:29,479 --> 01:14:32,080 Speaker 8: surgery really fast. And there's been a lot of really 1657 01:14:32,080 --> 01:14:35,040 Speaker 8: good stories written out of Bustin about how the early 1658 01:14:35,320 --> 01:14:38,639 Speaker 8: him getting the surgery so early was very helpful for 1659 01:14:39,160 --> 01:14:43,519 Speaker 8: his rehab timeline, perhaps being faster than some previous players 1660 01:14:43,560 --> 01:14:45,559 Speaker 8: who come back from the same injury and low and behold, 1661 01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:47,759 Speaker 8: he's back and he you know, he's trying to dunk 1662 01:14:47,800 --> 01:14:49,639 Speaker 8: in his first half back on the floor and things 1663 01:14:49,640 --> 01:14:52,479 Speaker 8: like that. You know, it has been I think a 1664 01:14:52,479 --> 01:14:55,320 Speaker 8: little impressive that he's tried to keep his lifts to 1665 01:14:55,320 --> 01:14:57,000 Speaker 8: the level he has and play that way. 1666 01:14:57,040 --> 01:14:57,920 Speaker 3: And the Celtics look. 1667 01:14:57,760 --> 01:15:01,280 Speaker 4: Pretty good this season. But you know, Kevin Durant has been. 1668 01:15:01,160 --> 01:15:05,040 Speaker 8: The guy that everybody points to as the best post 1669 01:15:05,040 --> 01:15:08,479 Speaker 8: Achilles return ever, and his skill set specifically doesn't require 1670 01:15:08,479 --> 01:15:10,240 Speaker 8: as much like push and lift and things like that. 1671 01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:13,000 Speaker 8: But what made his return unique is he took a 1672 01:15:13,040 --> 01:15:15,320 Speaker 8: full season off and then there was a long offseason 1673 01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:17,880 Speaker 8: because the next season he till he returned and start 1674 01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:20,800 Speaker 8: till December. But you know that long gap might have 1675 01:15:20,840 --> 01:15:23,120 Speaker 8: been helpful for him, right So you wonder with Haliburn 1676 01:15:23,240 --> 01:15:26,559 Speaker 8: what the all those kind of contrasting things are in 1677 01:15:26,640 --> 01:15:29,080 Speaker 8: terms of how it will help. And his game does 1678 01:15:29,120 --> 01:15:31,280 Speaker 8: require a lot of speed and push and lift. 1679 01:15:31,120 --> 01:15:31,840 Speaker 4: And things like that. 1680 01:15:32,080 --> 01:15:33,599 Speaker 8: You know, I'm not saying he's going to come back 1681 01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:35,760 Speaker 8: and be the same player like Durrant was, but you 1682 01:15:36,439 --> 01:15:37,080 Speaker 8: wonder how. 1683 01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:37,880 Speaker 6: That gap could help. 1684 01:15:37,920 --> 01:15:41,479 Speaker 8: But Tatum is playing well because Jante Murray took over 1685 01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:43,880 Speaker 8: a year. He looks awesome right now. The Pelicans look 1686 01:15:43,920 --> 01:15:46,880 Speaker 8: really good. Tatum actually has been struggling with his jumper 1687 01:15:46,920 --> 01:15:49,280 Speaker 8: a little bit. If his athleticism didn't look the same, 1688 01:15:49,320 --> 01:15:50,880 Speaker 8: I think there'd be more of a concern and talk 1689 01:15:50,880 --> 01:15:53,480 Speaker 8: about that. And the Celtics are playing really. 1690 01:15:53,200 --> 01:15:54,560 Speaker 4: Well, so I think that. 1691 01:15:55,160 --> 01:15:57,599 Speaker 8: Of course, in recent years, the recovery from the injury 1692 01:15:57,640 --> 01:16:00,280 Speaker 8: has gotten better to the point that you know it 1693 01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:02,880 Speaker 8: used to be much more damaging for players, which would 1694 01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:04,559 Speaker 8: be concerning for the Pacers. But I think he's still 1695 01:16:04,600 --> 01:16:07,600 Speaker 8: going to be at least very good next season, and 1696 01:16:07,640 --> 01:16:09,479 Speaker 8: a lot of these guys returning the season have shown that. 1697 01:16:10,040 --> 01:16:13,040 Speaker 4: Tony East with the Serier Paylostokers hotline against Circle City Spin, 1698 01:16:13,080 --> 01:16:16,479 Speaker 4: where you can find Tony's work. Last one from me, 1699 01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:19,720 Speaker 4: it looks like Benedict Matherin is going to return from 1700 01:16:19,720 --> 01:16:24,280 Speaker 4: his toe injury tonight. The Pacers host mister Matherin and 1701 01:16:24,320 --> 01:16:27,320 Speaker 4: the Clippers coming up on Friday. It'll be his first 1702 01:16:27,360 --> 01:16:30,519 Speaker 4: game back inside a Gamebridge Field House. How would you 1703 01:16:30,800 --> 01:16:35,200 Speaker 4: compare the anticipated response from the crowd to Benedict Matherin 1704 01:16:35,800 --> 01:16:38,240 Speaker 4: to Miles Turner from earlier this season. 1705 01:16:38,840 --> 01:16:41,280 Speaker 8: Yeah, he's completely off the injury report for them tonight, 1706 01:16:41,320 --> 01:16:43,759 Speaker 8: I believe, which is a good sign for him playing 1707 01:16:44,560 --> 01:16:48,240 Speaker 8: on Friday. Look, it's always different when the player chooses 1708 01:16:48,240 --> 01:16:51,400 Speaker 8: to leave versus the team chooses for them to leave 1709 01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:54,360 Speaker 8: in this instance, but that's going to help Ben Matheren 1710 01:16:54,439 --> 01:16:56,840 Speaker 8: quite a bit. I presume he'll get good cheers for 1711 01:16:56,960 --> 01:17:00,000 Speaker 8: being the sixth man of their best season. 1712 01:16:59,680 --> 01:17:01,280 Speaker 4: And in franchise history. 1713 01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:05,719 Speaker 8: And you know, was at one point viewed as like, Wow, what. 1714 01:17:05,640 --> 01:17:06,360 Speaker 4: Could this guy be? 1715 01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:10,479 Speaker 8: The statue Kevin Bowen, right, I actually built by Yeah. 1716 01:17:10,680 --> 01:17:12,559 Speaker 8: I mean he was viewed as that level of guy 1717 01:17:12,600 --> 01:17:15,160 Speaker 8: after his I mean multiple times throughout his time with 1718 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:17,160 Speaker 8: the Pacers, but especially after his rookie year when he 1719 01:17:17,240 --> 01:17:19,920 Speaker 8: was drawn a gazillion valves a game. So, you know, 1720 01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:22,519 Speaker 8: a popular fan favorite, and he's playing very well for 1721 01:17:22,560 --> 01:17:24,840 Speaker 8: the Clippers. That tempo suits him better. I think that 1722 01:17:25,240 --> 01:17:28,280 Speaker 8: whole team environment suits him very well. So I think 1723 01:17:28,280 --> 01:17:30,040 Speaker 8: he's gonna try to score a million points and I 1724 01:17:30,040 --> 01:17:31,560 Speaker 8: think he'll be well received. 1725 01:17:31,160 --> 01:17:35,280 Speaker 4: For it, him and them hart at some point, you. 1726 01:17:35,200 --> 01:17:37,200 Speaker 8: Know, it wasn't like that in La. 1727 01:17:37,520 --> 01:17:39,879 Speaker 4: I know it was kind of tame in La. Benedick 1728 01:17:39,960 --> 01:17:40,799 Speaker 4: was honestly just cooking. 1729 01:17:41,320 --> 01:17:42,920 Speaker 8: I mean, he's gonna say he just let his game 1730 01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:44,479 Speaker 8: speak and scored a bunch. 1731 01:17:44,479 --> 01:17:45,240 Speaker 4: He played very well. 1732 01:17:45,240 --> 01:17:46,920 Speaker 8: But yeah, I don't I don't think there'll be anything 1733 01:17:47,040 --> 01:17:49,040 Speaker 8: like that necessarily. But it is different when it's in 1734 01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:51,679 Speaker 8: it's in Andy. It's kind of a bummer that Zubots 1735 01:17:51,680 --> 01:17:53,720 Speaker 8: can't play against the Clippers this season too, for that 1736 01:17:53,760 --> 01:17:55,879 Speaker 8: game to to really have some spice. 1737 01:17:56,000 --> 01:17:58,559 Speaker 2: Do you think Benick is gonna accidentally try to walk 1738 01:17:58,600 --> 01:17:59,840 Speaker 2: to the wrong locker rooms. 1739 01:18:00,080 --> 01:18:01,360 Speaker 4: Muscle memory gonna throw them off. 1740 01:18:03,120 --> 01:18:03,320 Speaker 1: Man. 1741 01:18:03,360 --> 01:18:05,320 Speaker 8: I've only heard of one or two players have that 1742 01:18:05,439 --> 01:18:07,720 Speaker 8: happen to them, But it is always confusing when all 1743 01:18:07,720 --> 01:18:08,360 Speaker 8: of a sudden. 1744 01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:09,800 Speaker 1: You're like, wait, where am I going? What am I doing? 1745 01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:13,720 Speaker 8: Him and Isaiah will have to keep each other, you know, 1746 01:18:13,800 --> 01:18:15,559 Speaker 8: in line, figure out where to go in the building. 1747 01:18:15,800 --> 01:18:18,120 Speaker 4: And Isaiah Jackson's been getting a little bit more clock. 1748 01:18:18,160 --> 01:18:20,080 Speaker 4: He actually played a decent amount, I guess the first 1749 01:18:20,120 --> 01:18:22,400 Speaker 4: game injury, but he's been getting a little bit more 1750 01:18:22,400 --> 01:18:23,240 Speaker 4: clock right for him. 1751 01:18:23,880 --> 01:18:26,400 Speaker 8: Yeah, and he's playing kind of well. Yannick coden Ederhauser 1752 01:18:26,439 --> 01:18:28,320 Speaker 8: got hurt in that game against the Pacers. He's been 1753 01:18:28,360 --> 01:18:31,200 Speaker 8: their backup center ever since. And this actually looks pretty good. 1754 01:18:31,240 --> 01:18:34,160 Speaker 8: Another Achilles data point that it took him a little 1755 01:18:34,160 --> 01:18:36,680 Speaker 8: bit at the beginning of the season, but his athleticism 1756 01:18:36,760 --> 01:18:39,920 Speaker 8: is mostly back to pre Achilles levels. Albeit he's only 1757 01:18:39,960 --> 01:18:42,120 Speaker 8: twenty three or twenty four years old. But yeah, he 1758 01:18:42,160 --> 01:18:43,559 Speaker 8: looks pretty good for them right now. 1759 01:18:43,920 --> 01:18:46,760 Speaker 1: Tony East. You can read his stuff at Circle City Spin, 1760 01:18:46,920 --> 01:18:49,320 Speaker 1: you can read it at Forbes Sports, and you can 1761 01:18:49,360 --> 01:18:52,320 Speaker 1: also hear him on Lockdown Pacers. You can hear him 1762 01:18:52,320 --> 01:18:54,320 Speaker 1: with us every week or so right here at ninety 1763 01:18:54,320 --> 01:18:56,800 Speaker 1: two five one or seven five.

I feel 1776 01:19:30,520 --> 01:19:34,320 Speaker 2: like it is still somewhere in the pregame archives. 1777 01:19:34,640 --> 01:19:36,360 Speaker 4: Do we go all the way to Kanye's part or 1778 01:19:36,360 --> 01:19:37,200 Speaker 4: do we stop short? 1779 01:19:38,120 --> 01:19:40,320 Speaker 2: I think we'm o starstar of Kanye's Park.

I don't want to hear that. 1798 01:20:21,840 --> 01:20:22,640 Speaker 3: Just just stick to this. 1799 01:20:23,160 --> 01:20:27,120 Speaker 2: Is like you know, Tim duncan stick to the bank 1800 01:20:27,160 --> 01:20:30,760 Speaker 2: shot Bred but three of Abdul Jabbar, the Skyhook, it 1801 01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:32,080 Speaker 2: serves you well, keep doing it. 1802 01:20:32,120 --> 01:20:34,200 Speaker 1: See, I don't mind if they play one or two 1803 01:20:34,280 --> 01:20:37,519 Speaker 1: things to promote the upcoming album. I think that's fair right, 1804 01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:40,640 Speaker 1: because they want to keep moving and evolving. But the 1805 01:20:40,680 --> 01:20:43,120 Speaker 1: reason everybody paid all that money to go in there 1806 01:20:43,439 --> 01:20:45,760 Speaker 1: is to listen to the stuff that they've grown used 1807 01:20:45,760 --> 01:20:48,519 Speaker 1: to listening the stuff too Exactly. Let's let's go. 1808 01:20:48,720 --> 01:20:52,439 Speaker 4: You bring up the Tim Duncan fundamentals, James, I'm always 1809 01:20:52,439 --> 01:20:57,200 Speaker 4: struck by this every time I watch Purdue. The Trey 1810 01:20:57,360 --> 01:21:01,360 Speaker 4: Kaufman Wren shot put will never not create an uneasy 1811 01:21:01,439 --> 01:21:04,400 Speaker 4: moment in my brain. As he starts to elevate for that, 1812 01:21:04,640 --> 01:21:07,160 Speaker 4: I'm like, there's no way it's going in, right, and 1813 01:21:07,200 --> 01:21:07,760 Speaker 4: then it goes in. 1814 01:21:08,400 --> 01:21:08,639 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1815 01:21:08,880 --> 01:21:11,559 Speaker 2: He has the demeanor of Tim Duncan too, where he's 1816 01:21:11,720 --> 01:21:15,599 Speaker 2: very low key. But boy, he is just a beast 1817 01:21:15,720 --> 01:21:18,040 Speaker 2: in the post. I always think, too, Kevin like beside 1818 01:21:18,040 --> 01:21:19,400 Speaker 2: a little shot put. 1819 01:21:19,439 --> 01:21:21,240 Speaker 4: But it's like me dancing at my wedding. It's not 1820 01:21:21,320 --> 01:21:22,520 Speaker 4: aesthetically pleasing. 1821 01:21:22,360 --> 01:21:25,240 Speaker 3: No, but you know what I think is also not pleasing. 1822 01:21:25,600 --> 01:21:26,920 Speaker 3: When he takes his left shoulder and. 1823 01:21:26,960 --> 01:21:30,000 Speaker 2: Drives it into your chest right, I mean, my goodness, 1824 01:21:30,080 --> 01:21:32,680 Speaker 2: you have to have some weight to battle with that 1825 01:21:32,840 --> 01:21:35,920 Speaker 2: d because he will like move you, he will displace 1826 01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:37,439 Speaker 2: you and then go score. 1827 01:21:37,840 --> 01:21:39,920 Speaker 4: I do love and he doesn't now like about once 1828 01:21:39,960 --> 01:21:42,240 Speaker 4: a game when he leans on you with that left 1829 01:21:42,280 --> 01:21:44,280 Speaker 4: shoulder and then he throws the spin move in there. 1830 01:21:44,400 --> 01:21:47,240 Speaker 4: Wait when he does that, he doesn't happen often. Yeah, 1831 01:21:47,240 --> 01:21:49,439 Speaker 4: but man, that guy defended him. Looks over the bench 1832 01:21:49,560 --> 01:21:51,080 Speaker 4: is like I thought you told me to sit on 1833 01:21:51,280 --> 01:21:54,080 Speaker 4: the left shoulder and boom, he gets that spin move going. 1834 01:21:54,400 --> 01:21:56,599 Speaker 4: Texas does have a legit, big dude. I'm not gonna 1835 01:21:56,600 --> 01:21:58,160 Speaker 4: try to pronounce his name, but watch them in the 1836 01:21:58,200 --> 01:22:02,160 Speaker 4: early rounds. He is a pretty quality and that's what's 1837 01:22:02,280 --> 01:22:04,320 Speaker 4: left for Purdue. We talked about earlier in the show. 1838 01:22:04,720 --> 01:22:07,320 Speaker 4: They're favored by whatever. Seven tonight or seven tomorrow night. 1839 01:22:08,760 --> 01:22:11,639 Speaker 4: You know after tonight you're gonna be playing. You're gonna 1840 01:22:11,640 --> 01:22:13,840 Speaker 4: be an underdog every game the rest of the season. 1841 01:22:14,320 --> 01:22:15,759 Speaker 4: Vegas will have you as an underdog. 1842 01:22:15,880 --> 01:22:16,920 Speaker 1: They like that, don't they? 1843 01:22:17,240 --> 01:22:17,880 Speaker 4: The rest of the way. 1844 01:22:18,240 --> 01:22:21,240 Speaker 1: I think teams like being the underdog. Nobody believes it does, 1845 01:22:21,320 --> 01:22:21,560 Speaker 1: have you. 1846 01:22:21,680 --> 01:22:23,280 Speaker 2: They told us we can't win this kid, are you 1847 01:22:23,560 --> 01:22:26,320 Speaker 2: georg when Georgia won the national championship and the guys like, 1848 01:22:26,479 --> 01:22:27,080 Speaker 2: some guys. 1849 01:22:26,920 --> 01:22:28,840 Speaker 4: That we've only won six games this year, and it's like, 1850 01:22:28,880 --> 01:22:31,200 Speaker 4: you're in Georgia. Could we ever have a coach say 1851 01:22:32,600 --> 01:22:36,160 Speaker 4: I don't like being the underdog. You only hear people 1852 01:22:36,240 --> 01:22:38,439 Speaker 4: say I like being the underdog. When does a coach 1853 01:22:38,520 --> 01:22:41,360 Speaker 4: and say no, I'd rather have more talent. I'd rather 1854 01:22:41,560 --> 01:22:43,200 Speaker 4: be the favorite. You never rather be the one that 1855 01:22:43,240 --> 01:22:45,599 Speaker 4: everyone thinks gonna win. I'd rather walk into that arena 1856 01:22:45,720 --> 01:22:49,160 Speaker 4: with you know, MJ and Pippen than Bowen and Boyd. 1857 01:22:49,360 --> 01:22:54,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, well yeah, m J and Pippen. Well, Pippen right 1858 01:22:55,000 --> 01:22:57,240 Speaker 2: now is tripping. You might want me to be more 1859 01:22:57,280 --> 01:22:59,599 Speaker 2: of the cheerleader for Michael Jordan than Scottie Pippen currently 1860 01:22:59,680 --> 01:23:03,840 Speaker 2: he's illusional. But anyways, when you look at those types 1861 01:23:03,920 --> 01:23:05,840 Speaker 2: of coaches who might do that, I think Mick Cronan 1862 01:23:05,960 --> 01:23:08,200 Speaker 2: is like number one on that list. I feel like 1863 01:23:08,200 --> 01:23:10,240 Speaker 2: he'd be wild enough to say something like that, just 1864 01:23:10,280 --> 01:23:11,479 Speaker 2: give me the good players. I don't want to be 1865 01:23:11,479 --> 01:23:13,240 Speaker 2: a loser. I want to be underdog on the top dog. 1866 01:23:13,320 --> 01:23:15,599 Speaker 6: He said he needed five million dollars? 1867 01:23:15,680 --> 01:23:18,760 Speaker 1: Is that what he said? After press? Like he's the gimme. 1868 01:23:19,720 --> 01:23:21,200 Speaker 3: He is wild enough to say anything. 1869 01:23:21,320 --> 01:23:23,320 Speaker 4: Again, I think this is a good era for failing 1870 01:23:23,400 --> 01:23:26,479 Speaker 4: coaches because you can play the money card. Well, you 1871 01:23:26,520 --> 01:23:28,800 Speaker 4: can just say we don't have enough resources and do 1872 01:23:28,960 --> 01:23:30,040 Speaker 4: any of us really know that? 1873 01:23:31,000 --> 01:23:31,160 Speaker 6: You know? 1874 01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:33,200 Speaker 4: Like this is not like the salary cap in other. 1875 01:23:33,120 --> 01:23:35,040 Speaker 3: Sports, Yeah, where it's just open to everybody, Like. 1876 01:23:35,120 --> 01:23:38,320 Speaker 4: In Major League Baseball when the Oakland A's manager comes 1877 01:23:38,360 --> 01:23:40,599 Speaker 4: out and says, we don't have enough money. You're kind 1878 01:23:40,640 --> 01:23:43,479 Speaker 4: of like, yeah, you're right. And nowadays it's just like 1879 01:23:43,600 --> 01:23:45,720 Speaker 4: everybody just says it, Ah, I don't have enough money. 1880 01:23:45,800 --> 01:23:48,240 Speaker 4: Resources aren't very good, and a lot of times they're 1881 01:23:48,280 --> 01:23:50,800 Speaker 4: not wrong. To be clear, Now, I don't know the 1882 01:23:50,920 --> 01:23:53,680 Speaker 4: validity of McK cronan here, but yeah, I think that's 1883 01:23:53,760 --> 01:23:55,519 Speaker 4: the new day and age of like, boy, that's the 1884 01:23:55,600 --> 01:23:58,040 Speaker 4: easiest excuse in America right now. If you're a failing 1885 01:23:58,080 --> 01:24:00,880 Speaker 4: college sports coach, you just say, look at the money 1886 01:24:01,080 --> 01:24:01,559 Speaker 4: or have it. 1887 01:24:01,880 --> 01:24:04,920 Speaker 6: Or you have to hire a GM that buys you 1888 01:24:04,960 --> 01:24:07,559 Speaker 6: another year too. It's like, if we don't have a GM, like, hey, 1889 01:24:08,360 --> 01:24:09,800 Speaker 6: we need to make some space for a GM to 1890 01:24:09,840 --> 01:24:10,120 Speaker 6: get here. 1891 01:24:10,160 --> 01:24:12,519 Speaker 1: We can figure out the players that I wanted. He 1892 01:24:12,600 --> 01:24:13,280 Speaker 1: didn't listen to me. 1893 01:24:13,680 --> 01:24:16,599 Speaker 6: Right now we can That's how you buy another year too, 1894 01:24:16,760 --> 01:24:18,880 Speaker 6: is you like, you know, I guarantee you that's what 1895 01:24:18,960 --> 01:24:19,720 Speaker 6: Kentucky's gonna do. 1896 01:24:19,760 --> 01:24:21,839 Speaker 1: They don't have one. Mark Pope's gonna. 1897 01:24:21,720 --> 01:24:25,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's hiring some dude from b YU, right or absolutely? 1898 01:24:25,720 --> 01:24:27,400 Speaker 2: Do you think we'll ever get to a point where 1899 01:24:28,439 --> 01:24:34,479 Speaker 2: the salaries of players are disclosed not there's. 1900 01:24:34,320 --> 01:24:35,680 Speaker 1: A range we think this. 1901 01:24:35,960 --> 01:24:38,160 Speaker 2: Do you think we'll get to a point where we 1902 01:24:38,280 --> 01:24:41,960 Speaker 2: know every team's budget and what every player is getting paid. 1903 01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:42,960 Speaker 4: It's a great question. 1904 01:24:43,080 --> 01:24:43,799 Speaker 3: I think we should. 1905 01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:46,720 Speaker 4: I hope. I know that gets into a dangerous game, 1906 01:24:46,800 --> 01:24:50,800 Speaker 4: but hell, it's already pretty dangerous. I don't know if 1907 01:24:50,840 --> 01:24:54,160 Speaker 4: it's happening very soon, James, but I think from some 1908 01:24:54,360 --> 01:24:58,000 Speaker 4: sort of collective bargaining. You know, they are employees of 1909 01:24:58,080 --> 01:25:00,800 Speaker 4: the school, you can sign them to multi year your contracts. 1910 01:25:00,880 --> 01:25:02,519 Speaker 3: I think all of that needs to happen. 1911 01:25:02,720 --> 01:25:05,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, Because I'm like, you can look up a university 1912 01:25:06,000 --> 01:25:09,120 Speaker 2: professor in their salary. That is public information. Especially go 1913 01:25:09,160 --> 01:25:12,080 Speaker 2: to a public school. So if you're at a public university, 1914 01:25:12,479 --> 01:25:15,080 Speaker 2: I kind of want to know what the top guys 1915 01:25:15,120 --> 01:25:15,679 Speaker 2: are getting paid. 1916 01:25:15,760 --> 01:25:18,439 Speaker 4: And I get it. You're gonna hear you know, mental health, 1917 01:25:18,479 --> 01:25:20,240 Speaker 4: and you're gonna hear all this, and you're gonna I mean, 1918 01:25:20,560 --> 01:25:22,080 Speaker 4: it's gonna be a day, it's gonna be a much 1919 01:25:22,120 --> 01:25:23,200 Speaker 4: more dangerous definitely. 1920 01:25:23,360 --> 01:25:26,880 Speaker 1: To that end, everybody's favorite coach, Tommy Tubberville turned senator 1921 01:25:27,520 --> 01:25:30,840 Speaker 1: UH He's introduced the Student Athlete Act, setting a five 1922 01:25:30,920 --> 01:25:34,599 Speaker 1: year eligibility window for college athletes. Allows one penalty free 1923 01:25:34,720 --> 01:25:38,040 Speaker 1: transfer and requires a full year sit out for any 1924 01:25:38,720 --> 01:25:42,000 Speaker 1: more than one. He'd like to make that a law. 1925 01:25:43,160 --> 01:25:45,160 Speaker 4: I think I can get behind that. So you get 1926 01:25:45,200 --> 01:25:49,200 Speaker 4: one free transfer and transld transfer rule would apply after that. 1927 01:25:49,320 --> 01:25:50,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, you got to sit out of your now again. 1928 01:25:50,920 --> 01:25:53,360 Speaker 4: I can hear people counter and say, well, you know, 1929 01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:57,080 Speaker 4: Darren Devrees, you said the well Darren Devrees went from 1930 01:25:57,080 --> 01:25:58,800 Speaker 4: what drake West Virginia and I you and a four 1931 01:25:58,840 --> 01:26:01,920 Speaker 4: year span. Yeah, you know, he obviously would all by it, 1932 01:26:02,080 --> 01:26:05,760 Speaker 4: and so I like that though. I think that would 1933 01:26:05,760 --> 01:26:08,240 Speaker 4: provide a little bit more of roster continuity, allow you 1934 01:26:08,320 --> 01:26:11,320 Speaker 4: to build a little bit more. Yeah, I think that 1935 01:26:11,320 --> 01:26:11,880 Speaker 4: would be healthy. 1936 01:26:11,960 --> 01:26:14,560 Speaker 1: The question is, though, if you've now made these guys employees, 1937 01:26:14,760 --> 01:26:19,719 Speaker 1: are you limiting their employment choices? And is that legal? 1938 01:26:19,880 --> 01:26:20,479 Speaker 1: This is wow. 1939 01:26:20,600 --> 01:26:22,519 Speaker 2: I don't want everyone to go into the political side 1940 01:26:22,680 --> 01:26:27,880 Speaker 2: of college sports because boy, the questions are endless. That's 1941 01:26:27,880 --> 01:26:32,000 Speaker 2: a tough job, honestly. But the NCAA can blame themselves 1942 01:26:32,040 --> 01:26:33,479 Speaker 2: because they waited forever to pay guys. 1943 01:26:33,840 --> 01:26:36,840 Speaker 1: How about how did this the NCAA feel about the 1944 01:26:37,000 --> 01:26:39,439 Speaker 1: Senate trying to tell them what they can and do 1945 01:26:39,640 --> 01:26:44,439 Speaker 1: with their rules? Aren't we at war? With somebody right now. 1946 01:26:44,680 --> 01:26:47,920 Speaker 3: College basketball is just nuts. 1947 01:26:48,520 --> 01:26:50,200 Speaker 2: It is the sport where I feel like we can 1948 01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:52,800 Speaker 2: argue the most about so many different things, and it's 1949 01:26:52,800 --> 01:26:53,560 Speaker 2: probably why I love it. 1950 01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:55,960 Speaker 1: All right, that's what's happening in the world of sports. 1951 01:26:56,040 --> 01:26:58,799 Speaker 1: Coming up at a moment, we'll check in on college basketball. 1952 01:26:58,840 --> 01:27:01,439 Speaker 1: Our good friend Jordan corn that stops by to tell 1953 01:27:01,520 --> 01:27:03,640 Speaker 1: us more about Purdue, the NC Double A and all 1954 01:27:03,640 --> 01:27:06,080 Speaker 1: the things we were just talking about. We'll continue next 1955 01:27:06,120 --> 01:27:07,920 Speaker 1: at ninety three five and one on seven five to fan. 1956 01:27:10,840 --> 01:27:12,200 Speaker 1: I have a look, Kevin, have you seen what the 1957 01:27:12,280 --> 01:27:15,040 Speaker 1: over under for this game is? You got Texas average 1958 01:27:15,080 --> 01:27:17,599 Speaker 1: and eighty three points a game perdue eighty two points 1959 01:27:17,640 --> 01:27:20,240 Speaker 1: a game. This kid, just don't think it was going 1960 01:27:20,320 --> 01:27:20,920 Speaker 1: to wear you out. 1961 01:27:21,240 --> 01:27:23,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think it was as high as some 1962 01:27:23,280 --> 01:27:26,000 Speaker 4: of the others like Michigan Bama. I want to say 1963 01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:28,040 Speaker 4: it's pretty high, one forty eight and a half, but 1964 01:27:28,520 --> 01:27:33,280 Speaker 4: like Arizona, Arkansas won sixty six and a half coming 1965 01:27:33,360 --> 01:27:35,880 Speaker 4: up tomorrow night there so that is a huge one. 1966 01:27:35,960 --> 01:27:37,439 Speaker 3: Miami or Michigan Bama. 1967 01:27:38,040 --> 01:27:40,040 Speaker 4: One's seventy four there so, yeah, it looks like the 1968 01:27:40,240 --> 01:27:44,200 Speaker 4: third highest of the eight Sweet sixteen teams right there. 1969 01:27:44,360 --> 01:27:45,959 Speaker 1: You're looking forward to see Campden Heidi. 1970 01:27:48,000 --> 01:27:51,559 Speaker 4: Sure storyline, Yeah, I mean there's part of me it's 1971 01:27:51,600 --> 01:27:53,400 Speaker 4: kind of curious, you know, what you match up at 1972 01:27:53,400 --> 01:27:54,760 Speaker 4: all with Braidon Smith. If you're trying to get some 1973 01:27:54,880 --> 01:27:58,840 Speaker 4: length on to Braden Smith there, you know, would that 1974 01:27:58,960 --> 01:28:00,760 Speaker 4: be an option at all? For those that I've been 1975 01:28:00,800 --> 01:28:04,400 Speaker 4: following the Cam Heidi story. He's starting for Texas. He 1976 01:28:04,479 --> 01:28:07,680 Speaker 4: doesn't play a ton of minutes, but that's pretty much 1977 01:28:07,760 --> 01:28:09,679 Speaker 4: been his role there, and of course he had a huge, 1978 01:28:09,800 --> 01:28:12,559 Speaker 4: huge shot to Ice that went over again Zaga Allah. 1979 01:28:12,760 --> 01:28:14,920 Speaker 4: Very similar to what we saw against Houston last year, 1980 01:28:15,040 --> 01:28:18,559 Speaker 4: although Houston won definitely a little bit more closely guarded 1981 01:28:19,120 --> 01:28:21,519 Speaker 4: in that one. So yeah, I'll be curious just to 1982 01:28:21,560 --> 01:28:23,400 Speaker 4: see how that plays out. Seems like Purdue, you know, 1983 01:28:23,640 --> 01:28:26,160 Speaker 4: understands it. Cam heid he got quite the significant pay 1984 01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:27,880 Speaker 4: raise to go be at Texas. 1985 01:28:28,240 --> 01:28:31,040 Speaker 1: Really though, I think there'll be more concerned with Dalon Swain, 1986 01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:35,439 Speaker 1: who at six eight, just he's an interesting matchup problems 1987 01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:40,439 Speaker 1: for bigger guys because of his quickness and obviously at 1988 01:28:40,479 --> 01:28:43,320 Speaker 1: six eight he's a little quicker than the big big guys, 1989 01:28:43,439 --> 01:28:47,200 Speaker 1: but he's also a better rebatter bit stronger, better defender 1990 01:28:47,560 --> 01:28:50,000 Speaker 1: than the sixty six sixty seven guys. He creates a problem. 1991 01:28:50,160 --> 01:28:52,960 Speaker 3: James, absolutely, I just can't wait for the game. 1992 01:28:53,600 --> 01:28:57,120 Speaker 2: I mean, I love talking about this stuff, but boy, 1993 01:28:57,280 --> 01:28:59,439 Speaker 2: I think to kevin'swin from earlier in the week, I'm 1994 01:28:59,520 --> 01:29:03,599 Speaker 2: past the not relief because I'm not a diehard Purdue fan, 1995 01:29:03,640 --> 01:29:05,640 Speaker 2: but I guess I'm past the Okay, they've made it 1996 01:29:05,720 --> 01:29:07,679 Speaker 2: this far to I went to tip. 1997 01:29:07,600 --> 01:29:10,680 Speaker 1: Off seven ten tomorrow night. 1998 01:29:11,040 --> 01:29:13,280 Speaker 3: It could be at seventeen am and I'll be locked in. 1999 01:29:14,240 --> 01:29:17,759 Speaker 1: I didn't know that much about Titus until this tournament. 2000 01:29:17,800 --> 01:29:20,240 Speaker 1: I started watching the Texas games. The problem, man, he 2001 01:29:20,400 --> 01:29:23,240 Speaker 1: is he's pretty good. Yeah, no, he's a problem. 2002 01:29:23,360 --> 01:29:25,200 Speaker 2: I think he's somebody who's definitely gonna be at top 2003 01:29:25,280 --> 01:29:26,080 Speaker 2: this guiding report. 2004 01:29:26,160 --> 01:29:26,679 Speaker 3: That's for sure. 2005 01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:29,759 Speaker 1: Sixty two percent from the floor is averaging almost sixteen 2006 01:29:29,840 --> 01:29:32,160 Speaker 1: points a game. But he moves well. I'm surprised how 2007 01:29:32,240 --> 01:29:36,000 Speaker 1: well he moved and was able to operate, you know, 2008 01:29:36,120 --> 01:29:39,080 Speaker 1: in close spaces down low. So it's and then we 2009 01:29:39,160 --> 01:29:42,479 Speaker 1: see Trement trayman mark. Remember he hit the game winner 2010 01:29:43,640 --> 01:29:46,919 Speaker 1: in the playing the first four game they got. They're 2011 01:29:46,960 --> 01:29:50,200 Speaker 1: playing well, and they have issues for people like Purdue 2012 01:29:50,280 --> 01:29:50,559 Speaker 1: right now. 2013 01:29:50,720 --> 01:29:53,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, one thing on Purdue, and I know you touched 2014 01:29:53,160 --> 01:29:55,880 Speaker 2: on it a little bit previously. Before we want to 2015 01:29:55,920 --> 01:29:59,479 Speaker 2: break Kevin Trey Kaufman w Ren. I know last year 2016 01:29:59,520 --> 01:30:01,519 Speaker 2: he averaged twenty points a game. This year it was 2017 01:30:01,680 --> 01:30:05,160 Speaker 2: down largely due to the arrival of Oscar Cluff, But 2018 01:30:05,439 --> 01:30:07,760 Speaker 2: as of late he's turned kind of back into that 2019 01:30:08,040 --> 01:30:11,120 Speaker 2: big time score and I think that's offset some of 2020 01:30:11,160 --> 01:30:13,400 Speaker 2: the issues we're seeing Braiden Smith. I don't know, make 2021 01:30:13,439 --> 01:30:16,000 Speaker 2: it seem like Braiden Smith's happened some terrible tournament like 2022 01:30:16,120 --> 01:30:18,880 Speaker 2: that's not that's true at all. But shooting the basketball wise, 2023 01:30:19,240 --> 01:30:21,720 Speaker 2: he's been very reliable. Trey Kaufman Wren throwing in the 2024 01:30:21,800 --> 01:30:24,200 Speaker 2: post and is basically money. I mean, you're looking at 2025 01:30:24,240 --> 01:30:26,120 Speaker 2: back to back to back games of twenty twenty five 2026 01:30:26,520 --> 01:30:29,320 Speaker 2: in nineteen like that is and. 2027 01:30:29,360 --> 01:30:31,840 Speaker 3: Does that include the Michigan game when you rattle that off, 2028 01:30:32,200 --> 01:30:32,680 Speaker 3: I believe so. 2029 01:30:32,880 --> 01:30:35,200 Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean, think about the first meeting with Michigan, 2030 01:30:35,320 --> 01:30:37,880 Speaker 4: all that length, the issues they had in Baki trying 2031 01:30:37,920 --> 01:30:39,880 Speaker 4: to finish through those guys, then they see them again. 2032 01:30:40,640 --> 01:30:43,519 Speaker 4: Him and Oscar Cloff were super efficient in that Big 2033 01:30:43,560 --> 01:30:45,360 Speaker 4: ten title game. And I actually think Miami not that 2034 01:30:45,560 --> 01:30:48,040 Speaker 4: Malik renewed some rint protector, but you know, Udo the 2035 01:30:48,080 --> 01:30:50,400 Speaker 4: other guy is definitely known a little bit more for that. 2036 01:30:50,680 --> 01:30:53,160 Speaker 4: So you know, they will see size with Texas. They 2037 01:30:53,200 --> 01:30:56,240 Speaker 4: will see size if they move on, certainly Arizona. And 2038 01:30:56,320 --> 01:30:58,840 Speaker 4: obviously what the final four. So I don't know, I'm 2039 01:30:58,880 --> 01:31:03,080 Speaker 4: trying not to. I just Texas lost five or six 2040 01:31:03,160 --> 01:31:03,920 Speaker 4: going into the tournament. 2041 01:31:04,200 --> 01:31:07,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, they were shot away from being. 2042 01:31:07,000 --> 01:31:10,840 Speaker 4: Stuck in Dayton. I don't but that's the way it's March. Though. 2043 01:31:10,840 --> 01:31:11,240 Speaker 1: I get it. 2044 01:31:11,600 --> 01:31:14,800 Speaker 4: I shouldn't act like Texas's and nobody and I know, 2045 01:31:15,320 --> 01:31:17,200 Speaker 4: you know, Corey Elliott, it would be very very mad 2046 01:31:17,240 --> 01:31:19,840 Speaker 4: at me giving a Texas fandom, But I'm just not 2047 01:31:21,240 --> 01:31:23,519 Speaker 4: I'd be very surprised if Texas be perdue. I guess 2048 01:31:23,560 --> 01:31:25,479 Speaker 4: it's the simplest way I'm gonna put it. Granted, every 2049 01:31:25,479 --> 01:31:27,160 Speaker 4: produ fan out there would be like we felt the 2050 01:31:27,160 --> 01:31:31,000 Speaker 4: same way about Saint Peter's. I know, because you remember 2051 01:31:31,040 --> 01:31:33,439 Speaker 4: that was Sweet sixteen. Saint Peter's already be Kentucky. I mean, 2052 01:31:33,479 --> 01:31:36,280 Speaker 4: you know that was you know, that was the same thing. 2053 01:31:36,360 --> 01:31:38,120 Speaker 2: You got four or five days to get ready for it, 2054 01:31:38,200 --> 01:31:41,919 Speaker 2: and all that, I do want to see how Texas 2055 01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:45,080 Speaker 2: defends Fletch, your lawyer. I believe they keep saying this 2056 01:31:45,200 --> 01:31:47,519 Speaker 2: stat aut to every game where he's made double digit 2057 01:31:47,600 --> 01:31:50,040 Speaker 2: three's and maybe seventeen or eighteen straight games something crazy 2058 01:31:50,160 --> 01:31:52,160 Speaker 2: like that, which I mean, I'll let you know how 2059 01:31:52,240 --> 01:31:53,680 Speaker 2: good of a shooter he is. But he continues to 2060 01:31:53,680 --> 01:31:58,600 Speaker 2: get those opportunities. So what does his gravity present to 2061 01:31:58,840 --> 01:32:02,040 Speaker 2: that Texas defense? Do they face guard him more? Does 2062 01:32:02,080 --> 01:32:04,320 Speaker 2: that open up more opportunities for other guys to make 2063 01:32:04,360 --> 01:32:06,599 Speaker 2: surets Like, how does that all kind of work out? 2064 01:32:06,640 --> 01:32:09,160 Speaker 2: Because he's another one that has turned it on as 2065 01:32:09,280 --> 01:32:12,120 Speaker 2: of late and couldn't really be playing any better basketball. 2066 01:32:13,160 --> 01:32:16,320 Speaker 1: Well we find out tomorrow seven ten San Jose Purdue 2067 01:32:16,400 --> 01:32:19,200 Speaker 1: taking on Texas. They are seven and a half point favorites. 2068 01:32:19,240 --> 01:32:21,960 Speaker 1: The boiler Makers are right now and one forty eight 2069 01:32:21,960 --> 01:32:24,240 Speaker 1: and a half. As you were saying a minute ago, has. 2070 01:32:24,120 --> 01:32:25,160 Speaker 3: Anybody been to San Jose? 2071 01:32:25,520 --> 01:32:26,800 Speaker 1: Yeah? I have not. 2072 01:32:27,120 --> 01:32:29,000 Speaker 3: Oh boy, it just sounds I mean, anything on the 2073 01:32:29,040 --> 01:32:30,640 Speaker 3: West Coast you can sign me up this time of 2074 01:32:30,640 --> 01:32:30,920 Speaker 3: the year. 2075 01:32:30,960 --> 01:32:34,200 Speaker 4: But when Rob Blackmantelsey was there to call an arena 2076 01:32:34,240 --> 01:32:35,160 Speaker 4: football game back. 2077 01:32:35,000 --> 01:32:39,400 Speaker 1: There, Yeah, I did a Sacramento State San Jose game 2078 01:32:39,479 --> 01:32:39,920 Speaker 1: one time. 2079 01:32:40,080 --> 01:32:42,280 Speaker 3: There, what, Joe, I thought, you've lived a life. 2080 01:32:42,760 --> 01:32:46,920 Speaker 1: You have, we'll talk about it sometimes. Been around the world. 2081 01:32:47,120 --> 01:32:51,360 Speaker 2: Doing college basketball and pro basketball and pro football and everything. 2082 01:32:51,439 --> 01:32:53,120 Speaker 1: It's a good, good thing about getting a little bit 2083 01:32:53,160 --> 01:32:56,000 Speaker 1: older if you've had a chance to do some things. Hey, now, 2084 01:32:56,280 --> 01:32:57,680 Speaker 1: like hanging out with you guys, how about that? 2085 01:32:57,800 --> 01:32:59,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, nothing's wrong with that. I just was curious, like 2086 01:33:00,280 --> 01:33:03,120 Speaker 2: San Jose for a chance to get to the Elite eight. 2087 01:33:03,880 --> 01:33:07,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gonna be a fun, fun, fun watch. And 2088 01:33:08,040 --> 01:33:10,320 Speaker 1: you know, I also think at this point in time, 2089 01:33:10,400 --> 01:33:13,400 Speaker 1: there are coaches and a lot of them are still 2090 01:33:13,400 --> 01:33:15,680 Speaker 1: alive in the Sweet sixteen. They just know how to 2091 01:33:15,840 --> 01:33:19,639 Speaker 1: navigate an NCAA tournament. And I know that Matt Painter 2092 01:33:19,760 --> 01:33:22,599 Speaker 1: hasn't won it all yet and they had that first 2093 01:33:22,680 --> 01:33:25,080 Speaker 1: round upset, and I know things don't always go their way, 2094 01:33:25,160 --> 01:33:28,040 Speaker 1: but seven to the last nine, get into the Sweet sixteen, 2095 01:33:28,120 --> 01:33:30,280 Speaker 1: You've played in a national championship, you played in an 2096 01:33:30,320 --> 01:33:32,760 Speaker 1: Elite eight. I think he has a pretty good idea 2097 01:33:32,800 --> 01:33:34,800 Speaker 1: of how to prepare a team on just a couple 2098 01:33:34,840 --> 01:33:37,439 Speaker 1: of days that you get to play against. And I 2099 01:33:38,160 --> 01:33:41,000 Speaker 1: think that even over Sean Miller. At this point in time, 2100 01:33:41,000 --> 01:33:43,240 Speaker 1: I take Matt Painter every day and twice on Sundays. 2101 01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:49,400 Speaker 4: Your guys, favorite Sweet sixteen game, favorite Sweet sixteen. 2102 01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:50,200 Speaker 1: Game it might have been. 2103 01:33:50,760 --> 01:33:54,240 Speaker 4: I have echoed Illinois Houston as mine. Now again, I'm 2104 01:33:54,280 --> 01:33:57,679 Speaker 4: all for the beer game tomorrow. Iowad Nebraska, the state 2105 01:33:57,760 --> 01:33:59,720 Speaker 4: of Texas. You know, we can't be worried about oil 2106 01:33:59,760 --> 01:33:59,960 Speaker 4: right now. 2107 01:34:00,120 --> 01:34:00,599 Speaker 1: I know we are. 2108 01:34:01,000 --> 01:34:03,000 Speaker 4: We need to be worried about getting a proper amounts 2109 01:34:03,000 --> 01:34:06,519 Speaker 4: of beer in two whatever they play the Rockets Arena 2110 01:34:06,600 --> 01:34:09,040 Speaker 4: down there in Houston, because Iowa Nebraska fans, well, they 2111 01:34:09,120 --> 01:34:10,080 Speaker 4: might start drinking oil. 2112 01:34:10,200 --> 01:34:10,920 Speaker 3: Honestly, if you. 2113 01:34:10,960 --> 01:34:16,200 Speaker 4: Provide that in a can for them. I mean, he's 2114 01:34:16,240 --> 01:34:16,679 Speaker 4: not lying. 2115 01:34:16,920 --> 01:34:22,519 Speaker 3: I'm half serious to not go with the Homer pick. No, 2116 01:34:22,640 --> 01:34:24,679 Speaker 3: that's fine. I'm still gonna be locked into. 2117 01:34:24,560 --> 01:34:26,040 Speaker 4: A lot of other choices. 2118 01:34:26,360 --> 01:34:28,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll go say John's and Duke.

But one area, 2173 01:36:55,479 --> 01:37:01,360 Speaker 4: James that I legitiately think they've gotten better. Boy, Yeah, 2174 01:37:01,360 --> 01:37:04,200 Speaker 4: because we talked a lot about well they're running the 2175 01:37:04,280 --> 01:37:10,600 Speaker 4: back and they haven't gotten better. I think their defensive 2176 01:37:10,840 --> 01:37:13,080 Speaker 4: tackle depth has gotten better. 2177 01:37:13,880 --> 01:37:17,320 Speaker 2: Okay, I was thinking cornerback. Because you're getting healthier, you 2178 01:37:17,479 --> 01:37:18,720 Speaker 2: get some depth there as well. 2179 01:37:19,360 --> 01:37:23,360 Speaker 4: Now when I say that, boy, defensive tackle depth, my 2180 01:37:23,560 --> 01:37:26,080 Speaker 4: mind kind of goes back to you on the date 2181 01:37:26,160 --> 01:37:27,320 Speaker 4: with the girl the tesla. 2182 01:37:27,600 --> 01:37:29,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's. 2183 01:37:28,920 --> 01:37:30,960 Speaker 4: Almost like, you know, you go on this date, you 2184 01:37:31,120 --> 01:37:35,560 Speaker 4: come home, whatever, roommate, whatever, friend's family, Hey, how to go, 2185 01:37:36,320 --> 01:37:40,200 Speaker 4: And before you comment on personality, before you comment on looks, 2186 01:37:40,280 --> 01:37:44,360 Speaker 4: before you comment on chemistry, before you comment on what 2187 01:37:44,560 --> 01:37:48,400 Speaker 4: happened after the date, your first thing is she had 2188 01:37:48,400 --> 01:37:53,720 Speaker 4: a nice car. Yeah, the Colts have good defensive tackle depth. 2189 01:37:54,560 --> 01:37:55,720 Speaker 4: She has a nice car and. 2190 01:37:55,720 --> 01:37:58,000 Speaker 1: They picked them all up, right, Michael Clemons, Colby Wooden, 2191 01:37:58,000 --> 01:37:58,599 Speaker 1: and Ardent Key. 2192 01:37:59,240 --> 01:38:01,479 Speaker 4: Well, I mean those are ends Clemens and Key. I'm 2193 01:38:03,280 --> 01:38:06,640 Speaker 4: entire Yeah, and a little bit more Tillery, uh with that. 2194 01:38:06,840 --> 01:38:09,320 Speaker 4: So I don't know if it's a compliment you want, 2195 01:38:09,520 --> 01:38:11,639 Speaker 4: But my mother always said to me, you take that compliment, 2196 01:38:11,720 --> 01:38:12,080 Speaker 4: young man. 2197 01:38:12,479 --> 01:38:15,400 Speaker 2: See I didn't listening to mom, so when they asked 2198 01:38:15,439 --> 01:38:16,960 Speaker 2: me how to date, when I told him was terrible. 2199 01:38:17,200 --> 01:38:19,920 Speaker 2: You know that this girl didn't charge her car. We're 2200 01:38:19,960 --> 01:38:21,760 Speaker 2: out here with a big dead iPhone. That's how I 2201 01:38:21,800 --> 01:38:22,240 Speaker 2: looked at it. 2202 01:38:22,439 --> 01:38:23,800 Speaker 1: Did you even call her back after that? 2203 01:38:24,360 --> 01:38:26,120 Speaker 3: No, I made sure she got I actually did uh 2204 01:38:26,640 --> 01:38:27,439 Speaker 3: talk to her after that. 2205 01:38:27,600 --> 01:38:28,839 Speaker 4: But yeah, with the gentleman. 2206 01:38:28,960 --> 01:38:32,519 Speaker 2: After that, I was taking, Oh, man, like, you have 2207 01:38:32,800 --> 01:38:34,400 Speaker 2: met a very good dude who will stay with you 2208 01:38:34,479 --> 01:38:35,040 Speaker 2: through all it is. 2209 01:38:35,160 --> 01:38:39,719 Speaker 3: But baby, after this, I'm going ghost appreciated. 2210 01:38:39,880 --> 01:38:40,960 Speaker 1: Was she embarrassed how to go? 2211 01:38:41,920 --> 01:38:43,720 Speaker 2: I mean, I can lay on the couch here if 2212 01:38:43,720 --> 01:38:47,439 Speaker 2: you want me to. But uh, yeah, she was definitely embarrassed. 2213 01:38:47,439 --> 01:38:49,519 Speaker 2: And it was just one of the more bizarre things 2214 01:38:49,560 --> 01:38:53,000 Speaker 2: in the world. I think she made me. Really, I mean, 2215 01:38:53,520 --> 01:38:56,240 Speaker 2: don't feel bad. The car tells you it needs to 2216 01:38:56,280 --> 01:38:58,519 Speaker 2: be charged and you just don't charge it. I mean, 2217 01:38:58,960 --> 01:39:01,240 Speaker 2: we're not talking about some car with no gas gauge. 2218 01:39:01,600 --> 01:39:03,720 Speaker 2: It literally speaks to you and says, hey, charge me, 2219 01:39:04,280 --> 01:39:05,360 Speaker 2: and you choose not to do it. 2220 01:39:06,120 --> 01:39:08,519 Speaker 4: Now and Chris Ballard's eyes saying that you've got good 2221 01:39:08,560 --> 01:39:12,000 Speaker 4: defensive tackle depth. That's as attractive as Jeff looking at 2222 01:39:12,040 --> 01:39:13,559 Speaker 4: his beef and broccoli from Cluster truck. 2223 01:39:14,600 --> 01:39:17,639 Speaker 1: Right, I know, but this is where I get up. 2224 01:39:19,479 --> 01:39:19,840 Speaker 4: So much. 2225 01:39:19,960 --> 01:39:21,200 Speaker 1: What about the starters? 2226 01:39:22,280 --> 01:39:23,960 Speaker 4: But like I do want to be serious for a moment, 2227 01:39:24,479 --> 01:39:26,720 Speaker 4: go over Stuart to forst Buckner are getting up there 2228 01:39:26,760 --> 01:39:30,400 Speaker 4: in age Buckner coming off next surgery. I do think 2229 01:39:30,560 --> 01:39:34,880 Speaker 4: it is a again notable thing to point out. Is 2230 01:39:35,160 --> 01:39:37,120 Speaker 4: probably a little bit of a stretch, but I do 2231 01:39:37,240 --> 01:39:39,040 Speaker 4: think at some point over the course of seventeen game 2232 01:39:39,120 --> 01:39:41,200 Speaker 4: season this fall, we could look at and say, you 2233 01:39:41,240 --> 01:39:44,760 Speaker 4: know what, that's helping this team out now putting that 2234 01:39:44,840 --> 01:39:48,160 Speaker 4: to the side, Yes, James, what about your starts? Because 2235 01:39:48,360 --> 01:39:50,360 Speaker 4: I have the feel right here on March twenty fifth 2236 01:39:50,439 --> 01:39:55,040 Speaker 4: of the general feeling is like, well, fiscally the Colts 2237 01:39:55,040 --> 01:39:57,240 Speaker 4: continue to be pretty frugal and pretty smart with their money. 2238 01:39:58,040 --> 01:39:59,040 Speaker 4: But are they better? 2239 01:39:59,720 --> 01:39:59,920 Speaker 1: Yeah? 2240 01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:02,160 Speaker 3: I mean, right now, you have the Tesla and it's 2241 01:40:02,200 --> 01:40:05,920 Speaker 3: not charged. How do you charge it? Can't charge it 2242 01:40:05,960 --> 01:40:09,200 Speaker 3: with depth? So you need some dudes. And actually I 2243 01:40:09,320 --> 01:40:11,200 Speaker 3: was going through my big board. I think that comes 2244 01:40:11,200 --> 01:40:11,799 Speaker 3: out tomorrow. 2245 01:40:11,840 --> 01:40:13,160 Speaker 2: We could probably talk about it here on the show, 2246 01:40:13,160 --> 01:40:16,760 Speaker 2: a little bit looking at some college prospects, but even then, 2247 01:40:17,120 --> 01:40:19,160 Speaker 2: I mean I'm looking at I think I went through 2248 01:40:19,200 --> 01:40:24,880 Speaker 2: fifteen guys, five each at wide, receiver, defensive, ended, linebacker. Yeah, 2249 01:40:24,920 --> 01:40:26,800 Speaker 2: those will be great players I think to add to 2250 01:40:26,920 --> 01:40:28,960 Speaker 2: this team. It could be day one starters potentially. But 2251 01:40:30,000 --> 01:40:31,280 Speaker 2: it's not like you can get all of them. 2252 01:40:32,120 --> 01:40:34,040 Speaker 4: So what are you doing? 2253 01:40:34,120 --> 01:40:37,519 Speaker 2: I mean leaving at best case scenario, Let's say you 2254 01:40:37,680 --> 01:40:40,680 Speaker 2: hit on your second and third round picks and you 2255 01:40:40,840 --> 01:40:42,680 Speaker 2: get those guys to come and be a part of 2256 01:40:42,720 --> 01:40:44,240 Speaker 2: your team and contribute right away. 2257 01:40:44,360 --> 01:40:46,840 Speaker 3: But what else are you missing? 2258 01:40:47,040 --> 01:40:49,280 Speaker 2: Because as you pointed out, Kevin, I believe you lost 2259 01:40:49,360 --> 01:40:53,280 Speaker 2: five starters via free agency or a trade. And we're 2260 01:40:53,320 --> 01:40:55,200 Speaker 2: not saying you should have kept all five of them, 2261 01:40:55,720 --> 01:40:57,439 Speaker 2: But how do you backfill them? And how do you 2262 01:40:57,520 --> 01:41:01,040 Speaker 2: account for the loss of snaps, the experiences all the above, 2263 01:41:01,200 --> 01:41:03,240 Speaker 2: Because banking on a bunch of rookies to come in 2264 01:41:04,080 --> 01:41:06,840 Speaker 2: I almost say a bunch, but banking on honestly want 2265 01:41:06,960 --> 01:41:10,559 Speaker 2: rookie coming in and being an impact player from day one, 2266 01:41:11,280 --> 01:41:14,599 Speaker 2: particularly on defense. I think that's kind of a pipe 2267 01:41:14,720 --> 01:41:16,639 Speaker 2: dream from what we've seen in previous years. 2268 01:41:16,800 --> 01:41:20,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I was listening to Derek Schultz. I always enjoy 2269 01:41:20,320 --> 01:41:22,599 Speaker 4: kind of his his insight, and he had a funny 2270 01:41:22,640 --> 01:41:28,400 Speaker 4: analogy of like, I need to make a sandwich, and yeah, 2271 01:41:28,720 --> 01:41:32,400 Speaker 4: I've got moldy cheese, so yeah, I need to throw 2272 01:41:32,479 --> 01:41:34,240 Speaker 4: that out, but I still have to make the sandwich. 2273 01:41:35,400 --> 01:41:39,040 Speaker 4: Like you could say the Colts throughout moldy cheese. That's 2274 01:41:39,080 --> 01:41:41,880 Speaker 4: probably a little harsh to describe all those starters as 2275 01:41:41,920 --> 01:41:44,040 Speaker 4: moldy cheese, to be clear, But you still got to 2276 01:41:44,040 --> 01:41:46,880 Speaker 4: make the sandwich. You can't starve, you can't just you know, 2277 01:41:47,120 --> 01:41:50,639 Speaker 4: like you have to do something here. And that's where 2278 01:41:50,800 --> 01:41:53,400 Speaker 4: I mean you. You just said it like if they 2279 01:41:53,560 --> 01:41:56,120 Speaker 4: hit on their second and third round pick, find me 2280 01:41:56,240 --> 01:41:58,479 Speaker 4: a draft. And I'll say this for any GM not 2281 01:41:59,520 --> 01:42:01,920 Speaker 4: I find me a draft to where a team hits 2282 01:42:02,000 --> 01:42:04,599 Speaker 4: on their second and third round pick in year one. 2283 01:42:04,920 --> 01:42:05,719 Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. 2284 01:42:05,840 --> 01:42:08,720 Speaker 4: That is that's a lot of that is a far 2285 01:42:08,880 --> 01:42:09,920 Speaker 4: fetched dream there. 2286 01:42:10,080 --> 01:42:12,920 Speaker 2: So, but right now that feels like perhaps your it 2287 01:42:13,000 --> 01:42:16,240 Speaker 2: feels necessary to acquire the talent you need. 2288 01:42:16,760 --> 01:42:20,280 Speaker 4: It almost feels necessary for you to, you know, again, 2289 01:42:20,400 --> 01:42:21,720 Speaker 4: have a football team that I think we get to 2290 01:42:21,800 --> 01:42:23,720 Speaker 4: this fall and think, okay, this is a team that 2291 01:42:24,439 --> 01:42:26,719 Speaker 4: is going to compete in a very competitive AFC. Because 2292 01:42:26,800 --> 01:42:29,120 Speaker 4: I'll continue to stress that I think the AFC's depth. 2293 01:42:30,040 --> 01:42:34,679 Speaker 4: You talk about that conference one to ten is loaded 2294 01:42:34,920 --> 01:42:37,479 Speaker 4: as it's been quite a while. It might not have 2295 01:42:37,800 --> 01:42:41,920 Speaker 4: Brady top heaviness or Manning Roethlisberger rivers, it might not 2296 01:42:42,000 --> 01:42:44,360 Speaker 4: be that top heavy. But when you talk about a 2297 01:42:44,400 --> 01:42:47,280 Speaker 4: playoffs that we just got finished with that didn't have 2298 01:42:47,400 --> 01:42:51,680 Speaker 4: Joe Burrow, Lamar Jackson and Patrick Mahomes, and what has 2299 01:42:51,800 --> 01:42:55,040 Speaker 4: Baltimore done this offseason, I'd say Kansas City is added 2300 01:42:55,640 --> 01:42:58,600 Speaker 4: some notable as well. You know that to me is 2301 01:42:58,640 --> 01:43:01,640 Speaker 4: where I sit here and uh struggle a bit. 2302 01:43:01,800 --> 01:43:04,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think we all feel good with the secondary, 2303 01:43:04,160 --> 01:43:06,320 Speaker 1: but it's the front seven the questions that we have. 2304 01:43:06,479 --> 01:43:09,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think there is potential for the secondary to 2305 01:43:10,040 --> 01:43:10,720 Speaker 4: be very good. 2306 01:43:11,400 --> 01:43:11,560 Speaker 6: I do. 2307 01:43:12,080 --> 01:43:14,519 Speaker 4: I do safety maybe a little bit of a question, 2308 01:43:14,680 --> 01:43:16,960 Speaker 4: but you know you, I mean, if you just lay 2309 01:43:17,000 --> 01:43:21,120 Speaker 4: out your starters on paper, Javarisward, Kenny Moore, Sauce Gardner, 2310 01:43:22,120 --> 01:43:24,240 Speaker 4: cam buying them and again we'll see who the other 2311 01:43:24,280 --> 01:43:27,599 Speaker 4: starting safety is. That's those some pretty quality football players. 2312 01:43:28,160 --> 01:43:31,160 Speaker 4: Now again lasting seventeen games, all that we'll have to 2313 01:43:31,160 --> 01:43:33,880 Speaker 4: wait and see, but on paper, that's got the makings 2314 01:43:33,880 --> 01:43:34,919 Speaker 4: of a pretty good secondary. 2315 01:43:36,000 --> 01:43:39,160 Speaker 1: All right, Kevin, let's check it down. Indiana Pacers back 2316 01:43:39,200 --> 01:43:41,759 Speaker 1: at the field house tonight hosting the Los Angeles Lakers. 2317 01:43:41,840 --> 01:43:44,679 Speaker 1: We expect to see Lebron James and Luka don Sich 2318 01:43:44,720 --> 01:43:48,519 Speaker 1: playing that game tonight for the Indiana Pacers. Obviously, Zubac 2319 01:43:48,600 --> 01:43:50,720 Speaker 1: is out for the year, Tyrese Halliburn is out for 2320 01:43:50,760 --> 01:43:52,920 Speaker 1: the year, but when you take a look at the 2321 01:43:53,080 --> 01:43:56,760 Speaker 1: rest of the injury report, most folks are probable right now. 2322 01:43:56,800 --> 01:43:59,519 Speaker 1: When you look at Andrew Nemart, Aaron Nee Smith, Pascal 2323 01:43:59,600 --> 01:44:02,880 Speaker 1: siak Obi topping, they could all probably play tonight. 2324 01:44:03,240 --> 01:44:06,799 Speaker 2: I foreseeing Andrew Nimhard left wing three at the buzzer. 2325 01:44:07,439 --> 01:44:09,519 Speaker 2: That's his shot man, and he made one as a 2326 01:44:09,600 --> 01:44:13,000 Speaker 2: rookie over the Lakers, by the way, to beat him last. 2327 01:44:12,800 --> 01:44:15,360 Speaker 4: That Lakers Warriors like a couple of games out there 2328 01:44:15,360 --> 01:44:16,920 Speaker 4: where nem Hard like went off off. 2329 01:44:17,200 --> 01:44:19,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's when I became a believer, because boy, 2330 01:44:19,760 --> 01:44:21,960 Speaker 2: he's the second round pick and he is very good 2331 01:44:22,040 --> 01:44:22,559 Speaker 2: at this point. 2332 01:44:23,160 --> 01:44:25,640 Speaker 1: Last time they played the Lakers March sixth, that was 2333 01:44:25,680 --> 01:44:29,400 Speaker 1: in La Luka Danchez scored forty four points in just 2334 01:44:29,479 --> 01:44:30,120 Speaker 1: thirty two minutes. 2335 01:44:30,120 --> 01:44:32,320 Speaker 2: Again, last time they played here, Lebron had that tipping 2336 01:44:32,520 --> 01:44:34,479 Speaker 2: at the buzzer. So it's time for the Pacers to 2337 01:44:34,520 --> 01:44:35,400 Speaker 2: get some get. 2338 01:44:35,360 --> 01:44:38,840 Speaker 1: Back, all right.

Also, NCAA news UNC fires Hubert 2368 01:45:58,800 --> 01:46:01,760 Speaker 1: Davis after his first round loss with UNC. He was 2369 01:46:01,840 --> 01:46:04,760 Speaker 1: just one in twelve this pastor against quad one opponents 2370 01:46:05,200 --> 01:46:07,679 Speaker 1: and not very good against quad one opponents in his career, 2371 01:46:07,720 --> 01:46:10,679 Speaker 1: which is probably leading to his downfall there. Florida looking 2372 01:46:10,720 --> 01:46:14,040 Speaker 1: to extend Todd Golden to a third straight contract extension 2373 01:46:14,640 --> 01:46:17,120 Speaker 1: and the coach in carousel. We may have a new 2374 01:46:17,200 --> 01:46:19,800 Speaker 1: version of March madness here moving forward. Kevin and you 2375 01:46:19,880 --> 01:46:21,479 Speaker 1: said in the break you saw some on bill self. 2376 01:46:21,640 --> 01:46:24,880 Speaker 1: Is that right? I saw an unconfirmed report from a 2377 01:46:25,040 --> 01:46:29,240 Speaker 1: self proclaimed reporter that Bill's self, according to sources, is 2378 01:46:29,280 --> 01:46:30,960 Speaker 1: going to retire. I've not seen any of the major 2379 01:46:31,040 --> 01:46:32,760 Speaker 1: news out there. Gots got that up at this point 2380 01:46:32,800 --> 01:46:33,120 Speaker 1: in time. 2381 01:46:33,240 --> 01:46:34,719 Speaker 3: Don't get duped out there, my people. 2382 01:46:34,920 --> 01:46:37,240 Speaker 4: Nay, every careful verra Foolds is next week, right, got 2383 01:46:37,320 --> 01:46:40,639 Speaker 4: to be careful.

I mean, when's the last time North 2385 01:46:43,040 --> 01:46:45,560 Speaker 4: Carolina's made a higher outside of their family. So the 2386 01:46:46,080 --> 01:46:48,040 Speaker 4: domino effect that we could see off of this could 2387 01:46:48,080 --> 01:46:51,240 Speaker 4: be very rippling across college basketball. And that's not even 2388 01:46:51,280 --> 01:46:55,160 Speaker 4: bringing Kansas into the situation here. So be fascinated to 2389 01:46:55,200 --> 01:46:57,240 Speaker 4: see the route that they decide to go there. 2390 01:46:57,680 --> 01:47:01,200 Speaker 1: All right, the high school championships for Indiana are coming 2391 01:47:01,240 --> 01:47:04,120 Speaker 1: your way this Saturday.

So last 2493 01:51:07,080 --> 01:51:10,960 Speaker 2: year her salary was seventy eight thousand dollars. Under the 2494 01:51:11,000 --> 01:51:14,439 Speaker 2: new CBA, she is projected to make five hundred and 2495 01:51:14,439 --> 01:51:18,400 Speaker 2: twenty seven thousand dollars because of her making all WNBA 2496 01:51:18,760 --> 01:51:20,640 Speaker 2: and the increase in salary cap and all that, and 2497 01:51:20,720 --> 01:51:23,360 Speaker 2: then Aliah Boston will be in line for a max 2498 01:51:23,479 --> 01:51:25,880 Speaker 2: contract salary, which I believe is around one point four 2499 01:51:25,960 --> 01:51:29,320 Speaker 2: million for twenty twenty six. So shout out to the 2500 01:51:29,439 --> 01:51:32,880 Speaker 2: Fever Stars for getting their just due through the CBA. 2501 01:51:33,120 --> 01:51:35,840 Speaker 4: I think Kaitlyn he's probably free agency soon, right, yeah, yeah, 2502 01:51:35,920 --> 01:51:36,559 Speaker 4: got to open it up. 2503 01:51:36,800 --> 01:51:38,280 Speaker 2: So a lot of this isn't official yet, but I 2504 01:51:38,400 --> 01:51:40,080 Speaker 2: was just throwing off those two those are projected to 2505 01:51:40,200 --> 01:51:41,960 Speaker 2: happen for because Kelty Mitchell. 2506 01:51:42,360 --> 01:51:44,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, is Lexi Hall free agent? 2507 01:51:44,160 --> 01:51:45,040 Speaker 1: I believe so.

That's massive, I'll take it. 2514 01:52:01,880 --> 01:52:02,040 Speaker 4: She's. 2515 01:52:02,240 --> 01:52:03,880 Speaker 1: My point is she's doing extremely well. 2516 01:52:03,800 --> 01:52:05,680 Speaker 3: For her, so absolutely she's aren't good for her. 2517 01:52:06,080 --> 01:52:07,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, nobody's mad at her for it at all? Oh No, 2518 01:52:08,560 --> 01:52:10,320 Speaker 1: all right, coming up in a moment, we'll talk more 2519 01:52:10,360 --> 01:52:14,000 Speaker 1: about the NCAA Tournament and crazy stuff going on in 2520 01:52:14,080 --> 01:52:16,439 Speaker 1: the coaching carousel. What does it all mean and how 2521 01:52:16,479 --> 01:52:18,240 Speaker 1: does it trickle down to Butler at the end of 2522 01:52:18,280 --> 01:52:21,040 Speaker 1: the day. We'll ask that question next in ninety three, five, one, 2523 01:52:21,160 --> 01:52:29,560 Speaker 1: or seven. I have a question for everyone now and 2524 01:52:29,800 --> 01:52:33,880 Speaker 1: just Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina. What do they all have 2525 01:52:33,920 --> 01:52:41,120 Speaker 1: in common? Right now? You said Kansas, Kentucky and North Carolina. 2526 01:52:42,760 --> 01:52:44,439 Speaker 3: Coaches on hot seats are out the door. 2527 01:52:44,760 --> 01:52:47,560 Speaker 1: They're all watching the Sweet Sixteen from home at this 2528 01:52:47,680 --> 01:52:49,400 Speaker 1: point in time. And that doesn't sound like a big 2529 01:52:49,439 --> 01:52:52,639 Speaker 1: deal in and of itself, But for the fourth year 2530 01:52:52,680 --> 01:52:55,280 Speaker 1: in a row, it is pointed out by one of 2531 01:52:55,360 --> 01:53:00,120 Speaker 1: the premier reporters on college basketball, Dan Wetzel, that the 2532 01:53:00,160 --> 01:53:02,439 Speaker 1: fourth consecutive year none of those teams will reach the 2533 01:53:02,520 --> 01:53:04,880 Speaker 1: Final Four. It's the third time in six years the 2534 01:53:04,920 --> 01:53:08,840 Speaker 1: Sweet Sixteen takes place without any of them. And keep 2535 01:53:08,880 --> 01:53:11,920 Speaker 1: in mind for perspective, from nineteen eighty five to twenty twenty, 2536 01:53:12,040 --> 01:53:14,280 Speaker 1: the collective failure to reach the second weekend of the 2537 01:53:14,320 --> 01:53:17,759 Speaker 1: tournament for those teams only one time in two thousand 2538 01:53:17,800 --> 01:53:19,880 Speaker 1: and six and So the question is, in this day 2539 01:53:19,920 --> 01:53:24,160 Speaker 1: and age of nil oh Kevin Bowen, what do we have? 2540 01:53:24,840 --> 01:53:25,559 Speaker 1: It's it official? 2541 01:53:27,600 --> 01:53:30,240 Speaker 4: Some reports here, and I guess I'll single out somebody 2542 01:53:30,240 --> 01:53:32,559 Speaker 4: in the own backyard. And came Gillespie from the Indianapolis 2543 01:53:32,600 --> 01:53:38,040 Speaker 4: Star reporting Ronald Noreed, former of course player NBA assistant, 2544 01:53:38,160 --> 01:53:42,600 Speaker 4: to be the next head coach of the Butler Bulldogs. 2545 01:53:43,520 --> 01:53:45,439 Speaker 1: Are you worried at all that he's never had any 2546 01:53:45,479 --> 01:53:46,880 Speaker 1: real head coaching experience? 2547 01:53:47,120 --> 01:53:49,559 Speaker 4: Well, Brownsburg High School? Right, wasn't he a head coach there? 2548 01:53:50,040 --> 01:53:51,840 Speaker 4: I don't know, right, Yeah, I had to deal with 2549 01:53:51,840 --> 01:53:54,880 Speaker 4: some parents there in Hendricks County. No, in all seriousness, yeah, 2550 01:53:55,040 --> 01:53:59,080 Speaker 4: obviously that's probably the biggest question. You know, nor Ed's 2551 01:53:59,160 --> 01:54:03,320 Speaker 4: coaching whatever pathway. I mean, I think at one point 2552 01:54:03,360 --> 01:54:04,960 Speaker 4: there people thought he was going to be an NBA 2553 01:54:05,080 --> 01:54:07,200 Speaker 4: head coach. Frankly, I mean it was kind of going 2554 01:54:07,240 --> 01:54:08,760 Speaker 4: on that path. 2555 01:54:09,160 --> 01:54:09,320 Speaker 1: You know. 2556 01:54:09,400 --> 01:54:12,240 Speaker 4: He obviously was an assistant with Boston if I'm not mistaken. 2557 01:54:12,560 --> 01:54:14,320 Speaker 4: Did he coach their G League team? I think he 2558 01:54:14,400 --> 01:54:17,880 Speaker 4: was either or maybe like the main rent clause or something. 2559 01:54:18,439 --> 01:54:20,799 Speaker 4: And then of course with was with Rick Carlisle staff 2560 01:54:21,000 --> 01:54:23,320 Speaker 4: here in Indiana. A couple of years ago, currently with 2561 01:54:23,439 --> 01:54:26,240 Speaker 4: the Atlanta Hawks. And you know, I remember Butler game 2562 01:54:26,240 --> 01:54:28,200 Speaker 4: earlier this year when Atlanta was in town, him sitting 2563 01:54:28,240 --> 01:54:30,840 Speaker 4: courtside with Grant Line Decker. It's kind of funny now 2564 01:54:31,320 --> 01:54:32,880 Speaker 4: here we are a couple months later and he's the 2565 01:54:32,920 --> 01:54:35,120 Speaker 4: head coach. So I think from the onset, this is 2566 01:54:35,200 --> 01:54:40,120 Speaker 4: the name I thought Butler would go. You have questions, Jeff, 2567 01:54:40,160 --> 01:54:43,800 Speaker 4: obviously about head coaching experience, but where you don't have questions, 2568 01:54:43,840 --> 01:54:48,680 Speaker 4: I think is full on energy to want to revive 2569 01:54:48,760 --> 01:54:52,320 Speaker 4: the program. For anyone that heard Ronald Norad talk, he 2570 01:54:52,920 --> 01:54:56,280 Speaker 4: is going to be able to create energy and leadership 2571 01:54:56,440 --> 01:55:01,120 Speaker 4: in an instant and I think that that is needed. Frankly, 2572 01:55:01,160 --> 01:55:03,280 Speaker 4: if you need to inject some life into your program 2573 01:55:03,400 --> 01:55:05,800 Speaker 4: of like, hey can I get people to rally behind me? 2574 01:55:06,160 --> 01:55:09,600 Speaker 4: I do think nor D fits more of that personality 2575 01:55:09,680 --> 01:55:13,160 Speaker 4: here and again, Grant Line Decker the AD a teammate 2576 01:55:13,240 --> 01:55:16,160 Speaker 4: Ronald Norrid's on the national runner up teams. Gordon Hayward 2577 01:55:16,200 --> 01:55:19,480 Speaker 4: the GM obviously a fellow starter with Ronald Norredd. And 2578 01:55:19,520 --> 01:55:21,800 Speaker 4: if you ever watch Ronald Norridd play a Butler, you 2579 01:55:21,920 --> 01:55:25,400 Speaker 4: know full well that man was Butler's leader of those teams. 2580 01:55:26,000 --> 01:55:30,000 Speaker 1: And again my only concern is coaching at this level 2581 01:55:30,040 --> 01:55:33,640 Speaker 1: head being a head coach. Clearly, they know him well, 2582 01:55:33,680 --> 01:55:36,160 Speaker 1: they know what he's capable of. He knows basketball clearly. 2583 01:55:36,200 --> 01:55:38,280 Speaker 1: I mean he's been working in the NBA and in 2584 01:55:38,400 --> 01:55:41,480 Speaker 1: college basketball his assistant for a while now. And it's 2585 01:55:41,520 --> 01:55:44,080 Speaker 1: also going to be about comfort with everybody else who's 2586 01:55:44,120 --> 01:55:46,360 Speaker 1: making hirings over there at Butler and who they're comfortable 2587 01:55:46,400 --> 01:55:48,560 Speaker 1: with him what the plan is. But you're right about 2588 01:55:48,600 --> 01:55:51,480 Speaker 1: one thing. He will certainly bring NonStop energy Kevin, There's 2589 01:55:51,480 --> 01:55:52,320 Speaker 1: no question about that. 2590 01:55:52,480 --> 01:55:56,560 Speaker 2: I mean, he's thirty six, so he probably can relate 2591 01:55:56,760 --> 01:55:59,760 Speaker 2: to more of this nil world than the old guard 2592 01:55:59,800 --> 01:56:02,320 Speaker 2: when it comes to coaches, not saying they can't either, 2593 01:56:02,520 --> 01:56:05,320 Speaker 2: but there is a certain level of youthfulness there of 2594 01:56:05,480 --> 01:56:09,840 Speaker 2: wonder I would imagine, and also knowing Ronald a little 2595 01:56:09,840 --> 01:56:13,240 Speaker 2: bit from covering him when he's with the Pacers, a 2596 01:56:13,400 --> 01:56:16,320 Speaker 2: dude that will certainly, I think, be able to get 2597 01:56:16,360 --> 01:56:19,120 Speaker 2: some guys to buy in. And I wonder if it 2598 01:56:19,200 --> 01:56:21,360 Speaker 2: does help to just say, hey, I wore the uniform 2599 01:56:21,400 --> 01:56:23,320 Speaker 2: and here's what we did, and is that part of 2600 01:56:23,400 --> 01:56:26,120 Speaker 2: the pitching you know plan when it comes to recruiting 2601 01:56:26,200 --> 01:56:28,200 Speaker 2: guys and talking about a two time what was it, 2602 01:56:28,200 --> 01:56:30,760 Speaker 2: a Horizon League Defensive Player of the Year back then. 2603 01:56:30,920 --> 01:56:33,360 Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm excited for him. He's a good dude, 2604 01:56:33,400 --> 01:56:35,360 Speaker 2: and yeah, we'll see how it works out. A lot 2605 01:56:35,400 --> 01:56:37,240 Speaker 2: of moving parts and you got to build a staff 2606 01:56:37,280 --> 01:56:40,440 Speaker 2: after that. But I think it's it's one that makes sense. 2607 01:56:40,640 --> 01:56:42,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think from an optimistic point of view, Jeff 2608 01:56:42,680 --> 01:56:44,680 Speaker 4: to go back to Okay, no head coaching experience, no 2609 01:56:44,920 --> 01:56:47,520 Speaker 4: college experience, right, I think it was just Brownsburg and 2610 01:56:47,560 --> 01:56:48,160 Speaker 4: the Straight. 2611 01:56:47,960 --> 01:56:50,320 Speaker 1: He was an assistant at Northern Kentucky. 2612 01:56:50,040 --> 01:56:52,520 Speaker 4: Okay, so he was at for a year some reason. 2613 01:56:52,680 --> 01:56:53,080 Speaker 5: The Norse. 2614 01:56:53,840 --> 01:56:56,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, and they're relatively new to d one there, but 2615 01:56:56,960 --> 01:56:57,200 Speaker 4: it did. 2616 01:56:57,440 --> 01:57:00,280 Speaker 1: He was a head coach for the Long Island Nets, right. 2617 01:57:00,440 --> 01:57:05,040 Speaker 4: But you know, again, college experience virtually none, I would argue, 2618 01:57:05,160 --> 01:57:08,120 Speaker 4: though nowadays the college. 2619 01:57:07,840 --> 01:57:10,640 Speaker 3: Game is so freaking different than it was five seven 2620 01:57:10,720 --> 01:57:11,120 Speaker 3: years ago. 2621 01:57:11,440 --> 01:57:15,560 Speaker 4: You might make the case it's more NBA, like it's more, yeah, hey, 2622 01:57:15,600 --> 01:57:17,440 Speaker 4: how are we building the roster on an annual basis? 2623 01:57:17,800 --> 01:57:20,320 Speaker 4: How are we dealing with egos from a money standpoint, 2624 01:57:20,480 --> 01:57:26,520 Speaker 4: So that aspect I think is different there. But yeah, 2625 01:57:26,680 --> 01:57:30,320 Speaker 4: this is definitely quite the move from Butler. Again, I've 2626 01:57:30,440 --> 01:57:33,480 Speaker 4: had a feeling Nor it was probably the favorite when 2627 01:57:33,560 --> 01:57:35,760 Speaker 4: it was you know when this job opened up, I 2628 01:57:35,800 --> 01:57:37,960 Speaker 4: guess whenever. It was two weeks ago at this point here, 2629 01:57:38,040 --> 01:57:40,120 Speaker 4: and you know, portal doesn't open up till the Tuesday 2630 01:57:40,160 --> 01:57:41,760 Speaker 4: after the title game. So if you want to play 2631 01:57:41,800 --> 01:57:43,960 Speaker 4: this out, Ronald Nor, it's got what a week and 2632 01:57:44,000 --> 01:57:46,400 Speaker 4: a half to assemble staff, kind of get ducks in 2633 01:57:46,840 --> 01:57:50,000 Speaker 4: a row, and then obviously Butler's gonna have to attack 2634 01:57:50,080 --> 01:57:52,200 Speaker 4: the portal in a pretty significant manner. And of course 2635 01:57:52,800 --> 01:57:54,720 Speaker 4: what finances he has walking into that will be a 2636 01:57:54,760 --> 01:57:55,240 Speaker 4: major question. 2637 01:57:55,320 --> 01:57:57,280 Speaker 1: And when you talk about portal too, the thing that 2638 01:57:57,400 --> 01:57:59,320 Speaker 1: he will probably have going for him in the sales 2639 01:57:59,360 --> 01:58:02,440 Speaker 1: pitch will be, hey, look, I'm proof that anything's possible 2640 01:58:02,440 --> 01:58:05,280 Speaker 1: at Butler. Last time I played here, we went to 2641 01:58:05,360 --> 01:58:08,360 Speaker 1: final fours, So it can be done here. He's a young, 2642 01:58:08,680 --> 01:58:12,960 Speaker 1: energetic guide. There's probably, you know, some way to relate 2643 01:58:13,040 --> 01:58:15,960 Speaker 1: to recruits in that way. Sure you also say, hey, look, 2644 01:58:16,040 --> 01:58:18,280 Speaker 1: I also know what it takes to get to the NBA. 2645 01:58:19,240 --> 01:58:20,720 Speaker 1: You want to come here and work on a shot 2646 01:58:20,760 --> 01:58:23,320 Speaker 1: again in the NBA, that's a factor. I've been in 2647 01:58:23,400 --> 01:58:27,240 Speaker 1: the league for eight years now. Yeah, I know exactly 2648 01:58:27,360 --> 01:58:29,200 Speaker 1: what they're looking for at the next level. So A, 2649 01:58:30,240 --> 01:58:34,120 Speaker 1: I'm young and energetic. B I'm proof that you can 2650 01:58:34,200 --> 01:58:36,560 Speaker 1: do anything at Butler because last time I was here, 2651 01:58:37,160 --> 01:58:40,200 Speaker 1: we went to a championship game in final fours. That's 2652 01:58:40,240 --> 01:58:42,320 Speaker 1: what we did, and I know what it takes to 2653 01:58:42,360 --> 01:58:44,040 Speaker 1: get you to the next level. Those are all the 2654 01:58:44,080 --> 01:58:45,040 Speaker 1: things working in his face. 2655 01:58:45,200 --> 01:58:47,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a very good point. I hadn't thought about 2656 01:58:47,280 --> 01:58:50,440 Speaker 2: the NBA factor from that perspective, but yeah, if you 2657 01:58:50,520 --> 01:58:53,160 Speaker 2: can say I have been in the same room as 2658 01:58:53,240 --> 01:58:56,120 Speaker 2: the best in the world, you can trust me. I 2659 01:58:56,200 --> 01:58:58,800 Speaker 2: think that goes a little bit further along than someone 2660 01:58:58,880 --> 01:59:00,000 Speaker 2: who just hasn't had that experience. 2661 01:59:00,120 --> 01:59:02,400 Speaker 1: And so I would also expect a guy Kevin that 2662 01:59:02,440 --> 01:59:06,640 Speaker 1: will bring an expectation that you're going to play defense here. 2663 01:59:06,680 --> 01:59:08,280 Speaker 1: Right last time I checked, he was a two time 2664 01:59:08,320 --> 01:59:09,880 Speaker 1: defensive player of the Year in his conference. 2665 01:59:09,960 --> 01:59:12,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, certainly it was not out there for forty some 2666 01:59:12,400 --> 01:59:15,120 Speaker 4: minutes a game for his offensive prowess by any means there, 2667 01:59:15,320 --> 01:59:18,760 Speaker 4: But yeah, it was defense, defense, defense, And you know, 2668 01:59:18,800 --> 01:59:20,920 Speaker 4: he definitely hit some big shots in both of those 2669 01:59:21,000 --> 01:59:23,680 Speaker 4: runs there. But yeah, I just made so many plays 2670 01:59:23,760 --> 01:59:26,240 Speaker 4: that a coach would be obsessed with, which is no 2671 01:59:26,400 --> 01:59:28,880 Speaker 4: shock of why he then got into coaching after that. 2672 01:59:29,000 --> 01:59:31,080 Speaker 2: I remember he was the head coach of the Summer 2673 01:59:31,160 --> 01:59:33,560 Speaker 2: League team a few years ago when they traded for 2674 01:59:33,640 --> 01:59:35,320 Speaker 2: like Aaron Nesmith, and it was a big deal at 2675 01:59:35,320 --> 01:59:37,240 Speaker 2: the time. I was out in Las Vegas and I 2676 01:59:37,360 --> 01:59:38,840 Speaker 2: was talking to him like, so Eron East was going 2677 01:59:38,920 --> 01:59:41,160 Speaker 2: to play, and so look at how much their last 2678 01:59:41,200 --> 01:59:42,440 Speaker 2: have changed in the last few years. 2679 01:59:42,600 --> 01:59:44,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I remember we had him on the show before 2680 01:59:44,920 --> 01:59:49,360 Speaker 4: the Summer League, and you know, he had to have 2681 01:59:49,400 --> 01:59:50,760 Speaker 4: been I'm trying to think how old he was he 2682 01:59:50,800 --> 01:59:52,720 Speaker 4: took that Brownsburg head coaching job. I mean, I bet 2683 01:59:52,800 --> 01:59:54,800 Speaker 4: he was. He had to be twenty five years old 2684 01:59:54,880 --> 01:59:58,040 Speaker 4: at the oldest when he took that job, which again 2685 01:59:58,120 --> 01:59:59,080 Speaker 4: full circle from. 2686 01:59:59,520 --> 02:00:01,880 Speaker 3: Gordon Hay I had thirteen years ago and he's thirty 2687 02:00:01,920 --> 02:00:02,520 Speaker 3: six right now. 2688 02:00:02,800 --> 02:00:04,720 Speaker 1: I think that was a job right out of college. 2689 02:00:04,760 --> 02:00:06,760 Speaker 3: There you go, twenty three, so he was even younger. 2690 02:00:06,960 --> 02:00:09,960 Speaker 4: From that aspect, I think the biggest question is, obviously 2691 02:00:10,000 --> 02:00:11,920 Speaker 4: we've talked a lot about Ronald nored and I don't 2692 02:00:11,920 --> 02:00:13,480 Speaker 4: want to like discredit what a head coach of a 2693 02:00:13,520 --> 02:00:17,400 Speaker 4: program means. Right now, but you know, I think if 2694 02:00:17,480 --> 02:00:20,040 Speaker 4: we asked that madas true feelings about the program, he'd say, 2695 02:00:20,040 --> 02:00:23,280 Speaker 4: all right, where are we at financially? Yeah, you know, 2696 02:00:23,360 --> 02:00:25,200 Speaker 4: these are only so much you can do. I brought 2697 02:00:25,200 --> 02:00:26,640 Speaker 4: it up earlier in the show. We debated this a 2698 02:00:26,640 --> 02:00:29,080 Speaker 4: little bit in the seven o'clock hour. There was some 2699 02:00:29,200 --> 02:00:32,680 Speaker 4: smoke yesterday kind on social media about Michael Shrewsbury potentially 2700 02:00:32,760 --> 02:00:36,240 Speaker 4: being the next guy a Butler and Tom Noy, the 2701 02:00:36,320 --> 02:00:38,800 Speaker 4: South Bend Tribune ryder, who covers Notre Dame, came out 2702 02:00:38,880 --> 02:00:40,680 Speaker 4: last night said Michael Shrewsbury is going to be back, 2703 02:00:40,760 --> 02:00:42,920 Speaker 4: and he pointed out an anecdote about Notre Dame's current 2704 02:00:42,960 --> 02:00:46,440 Speaker 4: situation with their roster. Notre Dame is a rotational player 2705 02:00:46,720 --> 02:00:49,120 Speaker 4: that made one hundred and fifty thousand dollars last year 2706 02:00:49,160 --> 02:00:51,680 Speaker 4: to play for Notre Dame, and he's being offered one 2707 02:00:52,040 --> 02:00:57,920 Speaker 4: million dollars by another school this coming season. So like 2708 02:00:58,800 --> 02:01:04,120 Speaker 4: you could have whatever Vince Lombardi on the sidelines, and 2709 02:01:04,200 --> 02:01:07,600 Speaker 4: if you're getting offered ten times more and again, maybe 2710 02:01:08,160 --> 02:01:10,560 Speaker 4: let's call it five times more. You know, if you're 2711 02:01:10,680 --> 02:01:14,040 Speaker 4: Butler's sixth man and you have a quality first year 2712 02:01:14,200 --> 02:01:16,640 Speaker 4: and then all of a sudden, Saint John's comes calling, 2713 02:01:16,960 --> 02:01:22,480 Speaker 4: Yukon comes calling, and they say, here you go. How 2714 02:01:22,520 --> 02:01:24,960 Speaker 4: are you competing like that? To me is a bigger 2715 02:01:25,040 --> 02:01:26,920 Speaker 4: question right now, more than Ronald Nora had, more than 2716 02:01:26,960 --> 02:01:30,800 Speaker 4: John Gross, more than Michael Shrewsbery. It is do can 2717 02:01:30,960 --> 02:01:34,640 Speaker 4: you sustain? Can you build a roster that you know 2718 02:01:34,720 --> 02:01:36,880 Speaker 4: we saw this year with with Butler, as soon as 2719 02:01:37,000 --> 02:01:41,720 Speaker 4: like one injury occurred, it just started to crack and depth, 2720 02:01:41,800 --> 02:01:44,480 Speaker 4: I think is a huge deal for teams in building 2721 02:01:44,600 --> 02:01:47,440 Speaker 4: kind of an nil roster. Michael Jai is a great player, 2722 02:01:48,160 --> 02:01:51,800 Speaker 4: Finley Ben Jackson a very good player, but you know, 2723 02:01:51,840 --> 02:01:53,680 Speaker 4: they can only do so much. And when Jalen Jackson 2724 02:01:53,680 --> 02:01:56,480 Speaker 4: went down, Butler went from a tournament team to you know, 2725 02:01:56,560 --> 02:01:58,280 Speaker 4: on a huge losing streak. And they have some other 2726 02:01:58,360 --> 02:02:00,160 Speaker 4: injuries too, But you know, to me, I think that's 2727 02:02:00,200 --> 02:02:03,680 Speaker 4: probably the bigger question athletic department and maybe even university wise. 2728 02:02:04,240 --> 02:02:06,080 Speaker 1: That's what's happening in the very latest Butler has a 2729 02:02:06,200 --> 02:02:08,960 Speaker 1: brand new head coach, Ronald nor Red. We'll talk a 2730 02:02:09,000 --> 02:02:10,840 Speaker 1: little bit more about that. And also asked the question 2731 02:02:10,840 --> 02:02:12,320 Speaker 1: I was getting ready to ask you guys about Blue 2732 02:02:12,320 --> 02:02:14,920 Speaker 1: Blood since we're talking about college basketball coaches. We'll wrap 2733 02:02:15,000 --> 02:02:18,960 Speaker 1: it up next ninety three five one O seven Caleb 2734 02:02:19,040 --> 02:02:21,560 Speaker 1: the Just because my wife has this movie on it 2735 02:02:21,680 --> 02:02:24,360 Speaker 1: the house all the time. This reminds me of pitch Perfect. 2736 02:02:25,560 --> 02:02:29,240 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's one of the songs that they they 2737 02:02:29,320 --> 02:02:32,240 Speaker 1: messed with over there. There you go, big pitch Perfect fan. 2738 02:02:32,360 --> 02:02:36,360 Speaker 1: I didn't have that on the bingo card. The proposal. 2739 02:02:37,320 --> 02:02:38,320 Speaker 3: As tough as you think. 2740 02:02:39,080 --> 02:02:42,480 Speaker 1: The proposal with Sandra Bullock and pitch Perfect, they're on. 2741 02:02:42,640 --> 02:02:45,160 Speaker 1: They seemingly are on in my living room all the time. Yeah. 2742 02:02:45,480 --> 02:02:48,720 Speaker 1: If not that, then it's the Friends reruns that go forever. Well. 2743 02:02:48,800 --> 02:02:49,480 Speaker 4: That that's good. 2744 02:02:49,560 --> 02:02:52,360 Speaker 1: That that Friends reruns in the background are always Yeah, 2745 02:02:52,520 --> 02:02:54,600 Speaker 1: it's it's all fine, But it's just you know, I 2746 02:02:54,680 --> 02:02:55,920 Speaker 1: go downstairs and watch sports and. 2747 02:02:56,040 --> 02:02:58,960 Speaker 2: See I thought, I like all those shows better now 2748 02:02:59,000 --> 02:03:01,520 Speaker 2: because I can understand because when I saw Friends, my 2749 02:03:02,040 --> 02:03:05,120 Speaker 2: grandma had like regular TV. So Friends would come on 2750 02:03:05,400 --> 02:03:07,920 Speaker 2: King of Queens and I'm like, I don't understand King, 2751 02:03:09,560 --> 02:03:11,520 Speaker 2: And now I'm like, all these sorts are great. So 2752 02:03:12,240 --> 02:03:14,480 Speaker 2: little perspective always makes it a little better if you're 2753 02:03:14,520 --> 02:03:14,960 Speaker 2: just tuning in. 2754 02:03:15,120 --> 02:03:17,040 Speaker 1: Kevin, we had some breaking news just a moment ago. 2755 02:03:17,160 --> 02:03:19,880 Speaker 1: It looks like Butler has a brand new head basketball coach. 2756 02:03:20,120 --> 02:03:23,040 Speaker 4: Indeed, the point guard from the national runner up teams, 2757 02:03:23,280 --> 02:03:26,720 Speaker 4: Ronald nored the new head coach at the age of 2758 02:03:27,040 --> 02:03:30,880 Speaker 4: thirty six for the Butler Bulldogs, will. 2759 02:03:30,720 --> 02:03:32,760 Speaker 3: Be introduced Friday at noon. 2760 02:03:32,840 --> 02:03:36,360 Speaker 4: Grant line Decker right now, looks like with Ronald Nored up, 2761 02:03:36,600 --> 02:03:40,000 Speaker 4: I assume it's Detroit the Hawks playing the Pistons tonight. 2762 02:03:40,000 --> 02:03:43,160 Speaker 4: It looks like Ronald Noridd telling the Hawks team that 2763 02:03:43,320 --> 02:03:45,360 Speaker 4: he is off to his alma mater there. 2764 02:03:45,560 --> 02:03:47,960 Speaker 2: So he told him he's sick of the playing every 2765 02:03:48,040 --> 02:03:51,040 Speaker 2: year that nine ten spot you can get. No matter 2766 02:03:51,160 --> 02:03:53,360 Speaker 2: what happens, the Bulls and the Hawks are always in 2767 02:03:53,480 --> 02:03:54,720 Speaker 2: like the nine ten playing game. 2768 02:03:54,840 --> 02:03:57,360 Speaker 1: The last straw is the Trey Young trade. He said, 2769 02:03:57,400 --> 02:03:57,840 Speaker 1: I'm out of it. 2770 02:03:57,880 --> 02:03:58,400 Speaker 4: I'm out here. 2771 02:03:58,960 --> 02:04:01,280 Speaker 1: We were talking about coach in the Bulls being coached 2772 02:04:01,280 --> 02:04:04,600 Speaker 1: of course by Billy Donovan, and he's being rumored now 2773 02:04:04,640 --> 02:04:07,680 Speaker 1: as a possible replacement for Hubert Davis at North Carolina. 2774 02:04:07,720 --> 02:04:10,440 Speaker 1: While we're talking basketball coaches, and I heard somebody say 2775 02:04:10,520 --> 02:04:13,760 Speaker 1: this morning on the way in, like he's coaching the Bulls, 2776 02:04:13,840 --> 02:04:16,080 Speaker 1: Like what are you doing with your life? Billy Donovan, 2777 02:04:16,400 --> 02:04:17,480 Speaker 1: what are you doing with your life? 2778 02:04:17,760 --> 02:04:19,960 Speaker 2: Seriously, if there was ever an exit route, if I'm 2779 02:04:20,000 --> 02:04:21,560 Speaker 2: in his shoes, I'm going North Carolina. 2780 02:04:21,920 --> 02:04:24,640 Speaker 4: Yeah. I think the Grant line Decker statement here and again, 2781 02:04:24,680 --> 02:04:26,680 Speaker 4: I get a lot of this is probably pr driven, 2782 02:04:26,760 --> 02:04:31,560 Speaker 4: but you know, he says, here, in a raptly evolving 2783 02:04:31,600 --> 02:04:34,440 Speaker 4: college basketball landscape, our priority was identifying absolute best leader, 2784 02:04:34,560 --> 02:04:37,040 Speaker 4: spearhead the future Butler basketball. Ronald Norrid is that leader. 2785 02:04:37,360 --> 02:04:39,360 Speaker 4: You know, the first word I think of with Norrat 2786 02:04:39,360 --> 02:04:42,240 Speaker 4: as leader, leader and energy. I mean, if you I 2787 02:04:42,280 --> 02:04:44,800 Speaker 4: mean we all I don't know if we all did, 2788 02:04:44,880 --> 02:04:47,720 Speaker 4: but I certainly watch every minute of that run that 2789 02:04:47,880 --> 02:04:49,920 Speaker 4: Butler had, and that's what he defined. This is not 2790 02:04:50,000 --> 02:04:52,800 Speaker 4: a guy that had some you know, Indiana born jump 2791 02:04:52,840 --> 02:04:55,320 Speaker 4: shot that he was the starting point guard there, and 2792 02:04:55,600 --> 02:04:58,080 Speaker 4: you know the recruitment. I think Matthew Graves even told 2793 02:04:58,120 --> 02:05:01,440 Speaker 4: the story. It's not necessarily you know, you almost kind 2794 02:05:01,440 --> 02:05:03,360 Speaker 4: of have to be away. I really need to watch 2795 02:05:03,440 --> 02:05:05,520 Speaker 4: this kid in person. I don't think he's necessarily going 2796 02:05:05,560 --> 02:05:08,240 Speaker 4: to light up a box score. But yet you watch 2797 02:05:08,320 --> 02:05:11,680 Speaker 4: him play, he makes, you know, winning winning plays. Grant 2798 02:05:11,760 --> 02:05:15,280 Speaker 4: goes on to say, Butler a d He's a gifted 2799 02:05:15,320 --> 02:05:18,080 Speaker 4: relationship builder, commands respect through his character and his craft. 2800 02:05:18,120 --> 02:05:20,520 Speaker 4: Aile he understands to solve this university. We didn't hire 2801 02:05:20,600 --> 02:05:22,560 Speaker 4: him for his history here. We hired him for his 2802 02:05:22,720 --> 02:05:24,200 Speaker 4: vision of what we can become and how we will 2803 02:05:24,240 --> 02:05:26,640 Speaker 4: get there. His experience in the NBA provides us with 2804 02:05:26,720 --> 02:05:29,760 Speaker 4: a distinct competitive advantage as we navigate this new era. 2805 02:05:30,120 --> 02:05:33,000 Speaker 3: Of college basketball. I think there was a lot of 2806 02:05:33,040 --> 02:05:33,440 Speaker 3: truth to that. 2807 02:05:34,160 --> 02:05:36,480 Speaker 4: You know, it's not necessarily you have to go out 2808 02:05:36,560 --> 02:05:40,240 Speaker 4: and find the college basketball background. You know, it's more 2809 02:05:40,280 --> 02:05:42,760 Speaker 4: and more semi pro, if not full on pro. So 2810 02:05:43,080 --> 02:05:47,160 Speaker 4: those advantages or prerequisites or making a pros and consolest 2811 02:05:47,360 --> 02:05:52,200 Speaker 4: not necessarily needed here. So really really looking forward to 2812 02:05:52,360 --> 02:05:54,600 Speaker 4: He'll definitely win the press conference. I'll tell you that 2813 02:05:55,040 --> 02:05:59,440 Speaker 4: he'll bring some high energy soon on Friday. Inside of Hankle, Well, 2814 02:05:59,640 --> 02:06:01,600 Speaker 4: he's the coach. Now, I'm all in, let's let's say 2815 02:06:01,600 --> 02:06:02,200 Speaker 4: how it all goes. 2816 02:06:02,680 --> 02:06:05,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, and just from a personal standpoint, he's a good dude. Yeah, 2817 02:06:05,560 --> 02:06:08,000 Speaker 2: So I'm not saying that wasn't a good dude. But 2818 02:06:08,000 --> 02:06:10,800 Speaker 2: if you're gonna switch dudes, you want that guy to succeed. 2819 02:06:10,880 --> 02:06:12,640 Speaker 2: And he has a great relicship here in the city 2820 02:06:12,760 --> 02:06:15,480 Speaker 2: and really at all levels, I mean from Brownsburg to 2821 02:06:15,520 --> 02:06:17,400 Speaker 2: the Pacers to now Butler, and. 2822 02:06:17,440 --> 02:06:21,960 Speaker 4: They certainly Butler, whatever Booster or you know, you're someone 2823 02:06:22,040 --> 02:06:23,800 Speaker 4: that's got some money, and all of a sudden you 2824 02:06:23,880 --> 02:06:25,600 Speaker 4: sit down in a room with Ronald nora Ed and 2825 02:06:25,720 --> 02:06:28,840 Speaker 4: he's trying to sell his vision his program on you. 2826 02:06:29,960 --> 02:06:32,440 Speaker 4: I get words can only go so far, but that's 2827 02:06:32,480 --> 02:06:36,280 Speaker 4: all he has until September. I do think you would 2828 02:06:36,280 --> 02:06:38,480 Speaker 4: walk out of that room being like, Okay, I can 2829 02:06:38,560 --> 02:06:41,400 Speaker 4: see why Butler would want that guy. Want a guy 2830 02:06:41,440 --> 02:06:43,680 Speaker 4: who's thirty six years old with no head coaching experience. 2831 02:06:44,480 --> 02:06:47,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, and as not maybe cynical isn't the right word, 2832 02:06:47,760 --> 02:06:50,480 Speaker 2: but it does come down to money and can you 2833 02:06:50,920 --> 02:06:55,960 Speaker 2: garner enough financial support to really build the best roster possible. 2834 02:06:56,520 --> 02:06:58,080 Speaker 2: Because as much as we want to talk about the 2835 02:06:58,160 --> 02:06:59,960 Speaker 2: coaching and the x's and o's, and I'm sure that's 2836 02:07:00,080 --> 02:07:04,120 Speaker 2: very important as well, sometimes like I don't question fab 2837 02:07:04,200 --> 02:07:08,200 Speaker 2: Mada's knowledge of basketball, I do question what type of 2838 02:07:08,240 --> 02:07:11,960 Speaker 2: team he can build with a limited resource pool compared 2839 02:07:12,040 --> 02:07:14,280 Speaker 2: to the other Big East powerhouses. 2840 02:07:14,720 --> 02:07:17,720 Speaker 1: YEA, energy will probably not be a problem for him. 2841 02:07:17,800 --> 02:07:20,320 Speaker 1: So that's what we're talking about again. A guy with 2842 02:07:20,480 --> 02:07:23,480 Speaker 1: a lot of assistant coaching in the NBA, a guy 2843 02:07:23,560 --> 02:07:26,280 Speaker 1: that played at Butler during the glory days with Brad Stevens. 2844 02:07:26,560 --> 02:07:28,720 Speaker 1: He's got a great story to tell recruits. I know 2845 02:07:28,800 --> 02:07:31,400 Speaker 1: what's possible here at Butler because I lived to not one, 2846 02:07:32,160 --> 02:07:35,640 Speaker 1: two Final four appearances and a National Championship appearance. So 2847 02:07:35,720 --> 02:07:38,680 Speaker 1: don't tell me it's not possible because yeah two, I'm 2848 02:07:38,680 --> 02:07:41,000 Speaker 1: sorry too, too natural. Yeah, thank you very much, Kevin. 2849 02:07:41,560 --> 02:07:44,200 Speaker 1: But my point is is I've lived it. Getting to 2850 02:07:44,240 --> 02:07:46,480 Speaker 1: the top is possible here at Butler. I can get 2851 02:07:46,520 --> 02:07:49,560 Speaker 1: you ready for the NBA. And I think the age 2852 02:07:49,720 --> 02:07:52,680 Speaker 1: at thirty six probably a lot more relatable to today's 2853 02:07:52,720 --> 02:07:56,040 Speaker 1: current seventeen, eighteen, even twenty year olds. When you're recruiting 2854 02:07:56,080 --> 02:07:56,520 Speaker 1: in the portal. 2855 02:07:57,360 --> 02:08:00,360 Speaker 2: How long into the press conference do you think somebody 2856 02:08:00,440 --> 02:08:04,000 Speaker 2: asked about the almost make from Gordon Hayward. 2857 02:08:05,880 --> 02:08:08,240 Speaker 1: I say this all the time. I saw they played 2858 02:08:08,240 --> 02:08:12,000 Speaker 1: another video of it the other night. I know what's 2859 02:08:12,040 --> 02:08:14,560 Speaker 1: gonna happen. I still think it's going in James. 2860 02:08:14,680 --> 02:08:17,440 Speaker 2: I know I need to ask coach Norid hey man, 2861 02:08:18,040 --> 02:08:19,000 Speaker 2: do you still think about that? 2862 02:08:19,200 --> 02:08:21,880 Speaker 4: He has to write we'd have to dig up some audio, Klea, 2863 02:08:22,000 --> 02:08:24,840 Speaker 4: maybe if I could throw some homework on your plate here. 2864 02:08:24,920 --> 02:08:27,320 Speaker 4: We had norad On again a couple of years ago 2865 02:08:27,480 --> 02:08:30,040 Speaker 4: before he coached in the Summer League. I don't know 2866 02:08:30,040 --> 02:08:32,680 Speaker 4: if I asked him specifically about the shot, the. 2867 02:08:32,760 --> 02:08:34,080 Speaker 3: Modest the run in general. 2868 02:08:34,120 --> 02:08:35,840 Speaker 4: I don't know if we could dig up any of 2869 02:08:35,880 --> 02:08:37,720 Speaker 4: that audio, we could maybe play that. 2870 02:08:37,920 --> 02:08:39,520 Speaker 1: Something tells me we'll have a chance later on this 2871 02:08:39,600 --> 02:08:41,680 Speaker 1: week probably to talk to him about that, if not 2872 02:08:41,800 --> 02:08:42,560 Speaker 1: this week, next. 2873 02:08:42,440 --> 02:08:45,920 Speaker 4: Week for tomorrow's show there, because again, I mean, he 2874 02:08:46,000 --> 02:08:49,800 Speaker 4: was such a key key element to those Butler teams. 2875 02:08:49,880 --> 02:08:52,680 Speaker 4: Maybe not from a scoring standpoint, but definitely is kind 2876 02:08:52,720 --> 02:08:55,560 Speaker 4: of their point guard. And Shelvin Mack did so much 2877 02:08:55,600 --> 02:08:57,680 Speaker 4: of the scoring in the back court, but a lot 2878 02:08:57,760 --> 02:08:59,120 Speaker 4: of leadership there from Donald North. 2879 02:09:00,080 --> 02:09:03,440 Speaker 1: On this day, guys in nineteen ninety four, James, what 2880 02:09:03,560 --> 02:09:06,600 Speaker 1: happened on this day in nineteen ninety four Indiana Sports. 2881 02:09:07,000 --> 02:09:10,760 Speaker 3: I wasn't born yet, so you have to fill me in, Kevin. 2882 02:09:10,840 --> 02:09:13,360 Speaker 1: I think I just I got I got old all 2883 02:09:13,400 --> 02:09:13,800 Speaker 1: in one. 2884 02:09:13,840 --> 02:09:15,919 Speaker 3: Moment right this day in Indiana Sports. 2885 02:09:15,960 --> 02:09:16,280 Speaker 4: I don't know. 2886 02:09:16,440 --> 02:09:18,480 Speaker 3: I you Final four was that ninety. 2887 02:09:18,280 --> 02:09:22,360 Speaker 1: Three number one Purdue beat number four Kansas eighty three 2888 02:09:22,480 --> 02:09:27,440 Speaker 1: seventy eight Glenn Big Dog Robinson forty four points and 2889 02:09:27,640 --> 02:09:28,640 Speaker 1: seven rebounds. 2890 02:09:29,200 --> 02:09:31,520 Speaker 4: Of course, Purdue fans would quickly say, well, then he 2891 02:09:31,560 --> 02:09:34,280 Speaker 4: would got a back injury wrestling in his hotel room. 2892 02:09:34,400 --> 02:09:36,000 Speaker 4: Or is that the rumor there?

You 2918 02:10:48,040 --> 02:10:51,240 Speaker 4: could make an argument that it's pretty first time head 2919 02:10:51,280 --> 02:10:55,320 Speaker 4: coachy for everybody right now in college athletic because everything 2920 02:10:55,400 --> 02:10:56,000 Speaker 4: is so brand new. 2921 02:10:56,400 --> 02:10:56,520 Speaker 1: You know. 2922 02:10:56,680 --> 02:10:58,919 Speaker 4: Again, I'm gonna go back to the Their Dame basketball analogy. 2923 02:10:59,040 --> 02:11:04,240 Speaker 4: Like Mike Bray hadn't unbelievable run at Notre Dame, I'm 2924 02:11:04,320 --> 02:11:08,440 Speaker 4: not sure that Mike Bray would have had the same 2925 02:11:08,520 --> 02:11:12,080 Speaker 4: success in this era of college basketball, because I don't 2926 02:11:12,080 --> 02:11:15,240 Speaker 4: know if Notre Dame wants to have success in this 2927 02:11:15,360 --> 02:11:17,040 Speaker 4: era of college basketball. I don't know if they've got 2928 02:11:17,040 --> 02:11:19,200 Speaker 4: the big boy pants on. And look, if you're a 2929 02:11:19,240 --> 02:11:21,000 Speaker 4: Notre Dame, are you gonna sit there and say, you 2930 02:11:21,040 --> 02:11:25,040 Speaker 4: know what, let's take the four million for football and 2931 02:11:25,120 --> 02:11:26,960 Speaker 4: let's bring that over to basketball. I'd like to make 2932 02:11:27,000 --> 02:11:29,640 Speaker 4: the tournament every couple of years. Oh really, you'd like 2933 02:11:29,720 --> 02:11:31,800 Speaker 4: to do that? What a four million got you two 2934 02:11:31,800 --> 02:11:33,720 Speaker 4: extra players? They got you to the National championship game 2935 02:11:33,760 --> 02:11:37,200 Speaker 4: in football. I mean, come on, now, that fan base 2936 02:11:37,200 --> 02:11:39,000 Speaker 4: saying a bunch of Kevin Bowen and Ryan Bowenes out 2937 02:11:39,040 --> 02:11:41,520 Speaker 4: there that love the basketball program, they want football. So 2938 02:11:42,000 --> 02:11:44,200 Speaker 4: that to me is more of the question of like, okay, 2939 02:11:45,560 --> 02:11:47,160 Speaker 4: where are you at now? And again for all these 2940 02:11:47,240 --> 02:11:50,200 Speaker 4: head coaches, I think, whether it's Tony Bennett, whether it's 2941 02:11:50,320 --> 02:11:53,040 Speaker 4: Jay Wright, whether it's you know, Bill Self's probably be 2942 02:11:53,080 --> 02:11:55,040 Speaker 4: a little more health related. We'll see how that plays out. 2943 02:11:55,120 --> 02:11:57,400 Speaker 4: You know, all of it is a little bit more 2944 02:11:57,440 --> 02:12:01,360 Speaker 4: of a money money money. See Tyre's Halliburn with a 2945 02:12:01,440 --> 02:12:05,800 Speaker 4: retweet of Butler basketball, so an endorsement there from the 2946 02:12:06,000 --> 02:12:09,280 Speaker 4: former pacer assistant of Ronald no Ed and of course 2947 02:12:09,360 --> 02:12:10,600 Speaker 4: Tyr's Haliburn being a player. 2948 02:12:10,720 --> 02:12:14,000 Speaker 1: Tim's a little disappointed in you, Kevin. Tim texting at 2949 02:12:14,000 --> 02:12:16,680 Speaker 1: two three ninety ten seventy thought the breaking news center 2950 02:12:16,760 --> 02:12:18,880 Speaker 1: was confirmation that Tiger was going to play in the Masters. 2951 02:12:20,240 --> 02:12:24,240 Speaker 2: No, man, I think the breaking news center would have 2952 02:12:24,360 --> 02:12:25,480 Speaker 2: just been Kevin screaming. 2953 02:12:25,640 --> 02:12:28,760 Speaker 4: I don't know his comments posts around last night. I say, 2954 02:12:28,840 --> 02:12:31,640 Speaker 4: post round, he hit like six goal shots. Uh, he 2955 02:12:31,760 --> 02:12:34,400 Speaker 4: sounded like he's going to make an attempt. So I 2956 02:12:34,440 --> 02:12:37,120 Speaker 4: think we will get to Masters week and he will 2957 02:12:37,560 --> 02:12:40,760 Speaker 4: try leave the door open, yes, which honestly is probably 2958 02:12:40,800 --> 02:12:42,560 Speaker 4: good for ratings and clicks. 2959 02:12:42,800 --> 02:12:44,280 Speaker 3: If Tiger, that's crazy. 2960 02:12:44,040 --> 02:12:47,240 Speaker 2: That he still has that kind of command, But certain 2961 02:12:47,400 --> 02:12:51,400 Speaker 2: sports figures just do needle mover or he is. 2962 02:12:51,440 --> 02:12:53,320 Speaker 4: The needle right. Is not what they say about Kaylyn Clark. 2963 02:12:53,640 --> 02:12:55,080 Speaker 2: I was gonna say, I will put them in the 2964 02:12:55,120 --> 02:12:58,160 Speaker 2: same breath.
