Speaker 8: You're the Fever bench Fever a stop away from the semifinals.

23
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 8: Howard into Joel's shot, baked test great one.

24
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 4: No God came over and the Fever are moving.

25
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 3: On final score eighty seven eighty five in Atlanta.

26
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 2: We so crown that we need to play another day.

27
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 2: Hell yare.

28
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 6: Jock happy Friday? Operation Football underway, but we're talking basketball

29
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 6: right out of the gate. The Indiana Fever, for the

30
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 6: first time in a decade, have advanced to the semi

31
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 6: finals of the WNBA Playoffs. Good morning, James Boyd, Good morning,

32
00:01:56,240 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 6: Kevin Bowen, Mark Dyton KB. This team's got a little

33
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 6: bit of a Pacers feel to it down the stretch

34
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 6: and never say and die and just finding ways to

35
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 6: score one more point than the other team every night.

36
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, scratching claude in those final few minutes last night.

37
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 5: I thought John Nolan and Mark Dyton, great work, by

38
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,359
Speaker 5: the way, on that intro here on this Friday morning.

39
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 5: John Nolan pointed out right at the start, Stephanie White

40
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 5: not taking that time out. That's that's very Rick Carlisle

41
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 5: e a little chaotic for Atlanta. They were in scramble mode.

42
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 5: The Fever found Aliah Boston for the layup and then

43
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 5: obviously got those stops there at the end. So just

44
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 5: an awesome, awesome story. And I thought last night too,

45
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 5: you know, Kelsey Mitchell put the team on her back

46
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 5: in that first half, but then you're down whatever they

47
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 5: were at half seven or eight, and Mitchell only scored

48
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 5: I think five in the second half, and yet you

49
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 5: still come back and win that game. So hell of

50
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,919
Speaker 5: a story. And now off to the Final four here

51
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 5: against the Las Vegas Aces.

52
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, there was a minute there they were down ten

53
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 6: about midway through the game JB. And I thought, oh boy,

54
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 6: this is gonna be tough one. And they just don't

55
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 6: go away.

56
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 2: Yeah.

57
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 9: I watched a podcast this was probably about a month ago,

58
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 9: and Austin Rivers, if you remember, the son of Doc Rivers,

59
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 9: he called the Pacers and they were going on their run,

60
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 9: the best next play team in the NBA. And I

61
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,640
Speaker 9: think the Fever have that same sort of DNA where

62
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 9: no matter what happens, they're able to kind of stick

63
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 9: with it, kind of block out whatever bad plays miscues.

64
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,639
Speaker 9: It happened, because by all means that game was not perfect.

65
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,239
Speaker 9: It certainly wasn't perfect late, but I mean, you're down

66
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 9: what was it, eighty five eighty and you close out

67
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 9: the game on an incredible run, and I thought Lexi

68
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 9: Hall made some big, big decisions, made a huge layup

69
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 9: to cut it to one before the Allia Boston game winner.

70
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 9: Then obviously we saw Lexi get the huge steal. So

71
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 9: to me on that play in particular, yes, that was

72
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 9: Lexi Hall doing what she does, making me hustle play.

73
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 9: But BOYD did you all hear Stephanie White basically call

74
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 9: out exactly what they were gonna do and they just

75
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 9: shut him down.

76
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 2: I thought that the.

77
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 9: Dream took some terrible shots down the stretch, some of

78
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 9: the dumbest basketball you'll ever see, and if you ever

79
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 9: took full advantage.

80
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, they certainly did, and they got big plays down

81
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 6: the stretch, and even after they got the late lead

82
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 6: with about seven and a half seconds to go, Lexie Hull

83
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 6: little TJ McConnell action, I'll take that basketball from you

84
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 6: and seal this thing.

85
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 9: That was such a bad play. They were trying to

86
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 9: throw the ball to Bree Jones, who's a great post player,

87
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,239
Speaker 9: but she was basically on the wing, and I was thinking,

88
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 9: even if she does get the ball, is she gonna

89
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 9: back somebody down for five seconds and go shoot like

90
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 9: you need to go quick? So I didn't understand any

91
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 9: of their late game execution, but I thought Stephanie White,

92
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 9: for all the heat she's taken this year and how

93
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 9: rapid this fan base can be sometimes towards coaches.

94
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 2: That's a real coach right there.

95
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 9: They don't get that win without having her on the sideline,

96
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 9: galling things up and really trusting so many different players

97
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,040
Speaker 9: to have key moments. Aeriel Powers thought I had a

98
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 9: couple of big buckets last night as well. And again

99
00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 9: to your point, Kevin Kelsey Mitchell, what a star, what

100
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 9: a player. She kind of kept them in the game.

101
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 9: Without that huge first half, they're not keeping it tight.

102
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,720
Speaker 9: And I thought you were kind of like seeing the

103
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 9: future of Big Kevin watching that game. I was thinking, Man,

104
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 9: everything you predicted for how they could win happened. You know,

105
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 9: you had a huge half from Kelsey Mitchell, you kept

106
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,480
Speaker 9: it close late, and then you put pressure on them

107
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 9: to execute, and a team that really hasn't been there

108
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 9: before they wilted.

109
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, I thought Atlanta just frankly kind of peed down

110
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 5: their leg a lot in the final few minutes there,

111
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 5: and the Fever handled it better than them. And you know,

112
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 5: driving in this morning, you know we kind of hit

113
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 5: on this yesterday, but you think back on the last

114
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 5: let's just call it, the last twelve months in you know,

115
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 5: our state, our market, if you will, and the types

116
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 5: of sports stories that we have witnessed. If you want

117
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,120
Speaker 5: to live in that fever season right now, it's the

118
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,400
Speaker 5: story of overcoming injuries. It's the story of resiliency. It's

119
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 5: the story of Caitlin Clark and street clothes. And you're

120
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 5: one of the final four teams standing up for the

121
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 5: first time in ten years. Obviously, you go back to

122
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 5: the collegiate year. The Indiana football story speaks for itself.

123
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 5: IU football is in the college football playoff like that

124
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 5: is insane. The losing this program in college football history

125
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 5: is in the first ever playoff Notre Dame football. Would

126
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,479
Speaker 5: they ever get back again? That's a different type of

127
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 5: sports story, and they do. You show the ability to

128
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 5: get to that final game. Perdue basketball, it's probably more

129
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 5: of a multi year thing, but once again it's hey,

130
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 5: we're a little bit more of the non flashy five stars,

131
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,680
Speaker 5: and we're kind of zagging as everyone's zigging in terms

132
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 5: of the transfer portal and how we're built, and yet

133
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 5: we're as consistent of a winner as any in college basketball.

134
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 5: And then obviously what the Pacers did, the true cinema

135
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 5: climactic moments, the eight points to nine seconds, seemingly every night,

136
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 5: every series, the Halliburton Shots, et cetera, et cetera. I

137
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:57,359
Speaker 5: mean we have gotten four or five really awesome and

138
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 5: different sports stories. Yes, there is some Pacers feel to

139
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 5: the end of last night, but it's also different and

140
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 5: that it's overcoming the injuries. Again, it's Caitlyn Clark in

141
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 5: street clothes. It's it's all of that.

142
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 9: So Clark wearing the Black Air Force, the Black Air Forces,

143
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 9: We're taking them off and showing everybody at the end too.

144
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 9: You know, Black Air Forces mean Jeff, she looks windows

145
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 9: and it means win.

146
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 2: But it means win by any means. It means get

147
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 2: down at dirty.

148
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 5: And in red on Sundays exactly.

149
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 4: I thought.

150
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 2: I saw Ari mcgonald rocking.

151
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, so yes, those could be uh, you know, full

152
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 5: team apparel coming up here for the final was hilarious

153
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 5: starting on Sunday. But it's just been a it's been

154
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 5: an awesome twelve months when you think about it from

155
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 5: a sports story standpoint, college pro wise, and uh, you know,

156
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 5: so far, so good on the on the NFL side.

157
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 5: So we'll see how that plays out over the next

158
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 5: sixteen weeks.

159
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 6: Speaking of the NFL first game of Week three last night,

160
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 6: the Miami Dolphins playing in Buffalo, trying to drive for

161
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 6: a tying score late and to a throws it right

162
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 6: to a Buffalo Bill and that's pretty much the end

163
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 6: of the game right there.

164
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,559
Speaker 9: Yeah, only turnover the night, I believe, for either team,

165
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 9: and a huge, huge mistake by Tua and their own three.

166
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 9: And I get that they played better last night, I thought,

167
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 9: than they have in their previous outings this year. But

168
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 9: for the purposes of the Colts, you're feeling good about that.

169
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 9: You're happy about that, because we all know the Bills

170
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 9: are going to make the playoffs anyways. But you know, again,

171
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 9: looking at those fringe teams from last year, the Bills

172
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 9: and starting out the Bills, the Dolphins were one of them,

173
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 9: and so with them staring at an O three hole,

174
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 9: you got a chance to go up three to zero

175
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 9: on the season as far as your record.

176
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 2: That is a good thing for you.

177
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 6: Yes, it was, and it was. I was only checking

178
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 6: back and forth on it every so often because I

179
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 6: started getting really engaged in the Fever basketball game, because

180
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:44,839
Speaker 6: for a minute, you thought, Ah, the Fever, this is

181
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 6: going to be tough. I turned away when they were

182
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 6: down ten for just a minute, and then I put

183
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 6: it back on, and this team just it's fun to.

184
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 9: Watch, absolutely and probably on the other side of this

185
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 9: break and we got a lot going on today for

186
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,839
Speaker 9: high school football and football. But listen to the post

187
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,559
Speaker 9: game press conference and there was one question. Shout out

188
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 9: to Meg Hall, one of my good friends who covers

189
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 9: WNBA for USA today. She got a chance to ask

190
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 9: the players. You know, you hear players so often, you know,

191
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 9: coaches so often praise their players. What does Kelsey Mitchell

192
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 9: mean to this franchise? Kelsey Mitchell and Natasha Howe were

193
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 9: there after the game and Meg asked them, Hey, what

194
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 9: does Stephanie White mean to you? And I thought Kelsey

195
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 9: Mitchell gave quite the answer about what it means to

196
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 9: have Stephanie White in her corner as well as Antasha Howard.

197
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 9: You can see them get emotional about it, you know,

198
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 9: Stephanie White with some tears in her eyes. And again,

199
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 9: will they go on and win a championship? I don't

200
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 9: think so. But if you tell me you watched that

201
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,959
Speaker 9: game last night, you've watched this season and you didn't

202
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,319
Speaker 9: enjoy like the journey or getting to.

203
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 2: This point, I mean, what are you watching the game for?

204
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 4: It?

205
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 2: Was awesome last night.

206
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,440
Speaker 5: A lot of high school football, James said here in

207
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 5: the first hour. Good news on Tyler Warren, good news

208
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 5: on Josh Downs both getting back to practice yesterday. Only

209
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 5: one cult did not practice due to injury. That's Joe Bachi,

210
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 5: who is the starting linebacker or so we'll get.

211
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 2: More impact Titans.

212
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 9: H You're starting offensive tackle jac Latham did not practice

213
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 9: for a second straight day.

214
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,439
Speaker 5: You see vin Zitler got back to practice, one of

215
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,839
Speaker 5: their offensive linemen. But yeah, corner wise, they're a little

216
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 5: banged up.

217
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:13,679
Speaker 4: Yell.

218
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 9: Jerious Need did not practice either yesterday for a second

219
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 9: straight day to do a back injury.

220
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 2: So they're banged up.

221
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, so a little banged up there corner and then

222
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 5: likely without the right tackle it's looking like. And then

223
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,959
Speaker 5: of course all eyes once again on Bloomington coming up

224
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 5: tomorrow and what should be.

225
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 2: Atmosphere.

226
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 5: The disrespect is real right now, Indiana, I see is

227
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:40,080
Speaker 5: climbing to nearly a touchdown favorite at home over the

228
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:40,719
Speaker 5: fighting line.

229
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:44,680
Speaker 2: Nobody believes in your line like that.

230
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 5: I think Illinois top corner going to be out for

231
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 5: this one. So Elijah Surratt, Omar Cooper and Company, Fernando Mendoza,

232
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 5: how much can they test a little bit of a

233
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 5: banged up secondary. Sounds like a banged up secondary in

234
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 5: South Bend as well, So.

235
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,920
Speaker 6: Fernando and uh to me, one brother, let's talk more

236
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:03,800

313
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:14,720

317
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 10: and seven a year ago and they're three and one

318
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 10: this season. Only loss is to a ranked playing field team.

319
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 10: So a huge game at home against six A first

320
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,200
Speaker 10: year in six A to cater Central who sputtered a

321
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 10: bit out the gate, but it's got their footing here

322
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 10: as the year has gone on. That's a great matchup

323
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 10: for Morsill A good measuring stick here tonight at home.

324
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 10: But Mike Gillan said the boys will be ready. It's

325
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 10: their homecoming. There are a lot of homecomings around the

326
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 10: State today and it's gonna be a great night for football.

327
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 10: But man, gracious hosts. I even crowdsurfed a little bit,

328
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 10: broke that out for the first time this season. So

329
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 10: I thought I had energy, but these kids were off

330
00:14:59,280 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 10: the charts.

331
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 2: Are is this the like you know, like the rave

332
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 2: or what are we doing this morning?

333
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 4: Absolutely?

334
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 2: Absolutely, it's like the snake.

335
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 4: That's right, Operation Football, Sunrise Kickoff. Man, we don't play,

336
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 4: they don't play around here.

337
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 6: I gotta love it, and I love the energy, and

338
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 6: I love all the games coming up tonight. I have

339
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 6: a feeling what you're going to say, But down with

340
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 6: Miranda Channel thirteen, Operation Football, What are you guys most

341
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 6: excited about and focusing on tonight?

342
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 10: Okay, So our game of the week is a top

343
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 10: ten battle in six A Brownsburg, who looks like primed

344
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 10: to go back to back with state unbelievable offensive output

345
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,480
Speaker 10: this season, fresh off of fifty five to forty seven

346
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 10: win over Avon last week. Just an offensive explosion. Our

347
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 10: camera guy was there for about ten minutes and got

348
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,840
Speaker 10: three touchdowns over sixty yards.

349
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 4: That's just insane.

350
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 10: They host Fishers, just coming off a huge win in

351
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 10: the in the Mudstock game last week over HSC after

352
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 10: a tough loss to Carmel start the year. Fisher's has

353
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 10: been awesome this season, so really looking forward to that matchup.

354
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 4: Almost game of the week one.

355
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:09,080
Speaker 10: B for me, top rank, and I mean has an

356
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 10: argument to be game of the week for US. Tonight

357
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 10: is a tough choice, but five A top ranks Newpal

358
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 10: who's been absolutely mowing everyone down, scored over seventy points

359
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 10: last week, by the way, hosting Penalton Heights top ten

360
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 10: and four A. I'm very interested in that matchup, so

361
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 10: we'll be there as well.

362
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 4: Then you got win HSC tonight.

363
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 10: Columbus North Carmel, Franklin Central, Avon, Warren Central, Ben Davis.

364
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 10: Great matchups all the way around, primarily in Class six A. Man,

365
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,920
Speaker 10: the football has been awesome to start this season, but

366
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 10: I'm excited to see Brent. Every time I watch Brandon

367
00:16:41,520 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 10: Sharp play, excited to watch him play. Fishers has some

368
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 10: great talent as well. You talk about a marquee win

369
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 10: possibility for Fishers. It is tonight, but it's also Brownsburg's

370
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 10: homecoming and that's one of the best. It's not the

371
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 10: best student section I've ever seen, so we'll see both

372
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:57,720
Speaker 10: both student sections are awesome.

373
00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 4: It should be a lot of fun at Brownsburg.

374
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 9: So I do want to pivot there for one last

375
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 9: little thing on Brownsburg and Fishers. So Carson Elms, the

376
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 9: cornerback going to Wisconsin, going up against I would imagine

377
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 9: Brendan Sharp, who is one of the better wide receivers

378
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 9: in the state and has some Division one opportunity on

379
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,880
Speaker 9: his play. So what do you look forward to seeing,

380
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 9: I guess in that matchup, because usually don't see that

381
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:20,679
Speaker 9: level of talent going head up.

382
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 2: I would imagine in a high school setting.

383
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,880
Speaker 10: Yeah, Like I was doing some recount on Carson Elams

384
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 10: last night because I mean, what a stud and whoever

385
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 10: is guarding. I mean, I always look at the rankings

386
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 10: of recruits in the state of Indiana just for all

387
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 10: the games I'm going to, so they're on my radar

388
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 10: for highlights later that night. But to have a corner

389
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 10: going to Wisconsin and to have a wide receiver probably

390
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 10: going to the you know, Big ten as well, if

391
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 10: I had to guess, that's just my prognostication.

392
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 4: Here early on in his recruiting pop process.

393
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,679
Speaker 10: But you know, you don't see that wide receiver on

394
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 10: corner matchup in Indiana prim and Elim's. I was watching

395
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:03,680
Speaker 10: some tape of his last night too, just because I'm

396
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 10: I don't have a life and I love football. But

397
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:10,640
Speaker 10: he is so twitchy and he's he's as fast as

398
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,119
Speaker 10: he is physical. I mean he'll he'll man you up

399
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 10: at the line, but he has chased down speed as well,

400
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 10: like just a Wisconkin a good one. But I am

401
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,400
Speaker 10: so excited to see that matchup. I have to believe that,

402
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 10: I mean, Elims is guarding sharp or else what are

403
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 10: we doing here? I have to believe that's happening. But yeah,

404
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,120
Speaker 10: that's gonna be awesome. I think Fischers can win this game.

405
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:32,359
Speaker 4: I do.

406
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:36,479
Speaker 10: Brownsburg's really really good. But I wouldn't be shocked at all.

407
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 10: I wouldn't be shocked at all. And again that's just

408
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 10: a tip of the answer. We have a ton of

409
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:40,439
Speaker 10: great matchups tonight.

410
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 5: That forty seven years for Mike Gillen, I don't. I mean, obviously,

411
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 5: Bud Bud Wright's in a different stratosphere now that he's

412
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 5: finally hung it up. But three hundred and seventy one

413
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 5: career win, I mean, this dude coached in nineteen eighty four,

414
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 5: Ryan Bowen was born in eighty four. And hell, he's

415
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,680
Speaker 5: hold as hell right now. I mean, this is incredible.

416
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 5: This dude's still coaching.

417
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 10: Yeah, and he let me tay, I'm just as energetic

418
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,320
Speaker 10: he was. I thought he was gonna do a cartwheel.

419
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,160
Speaker 10: He acted like he was gonna, okay, and I think

420
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,399
Speaker 10: he could. He doesn't look a day over sixty. I'm

421
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 10: telling you, I don't know how old he is. I'm

422
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:20,200
Speaker 10: assuming he's like pretty experienced guy, you know, coaching thirty seven,

423
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,679
Speaker 10: forty seven years, whatever it was. But yeah, he's been

424
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 10: a ton of places one a ton of places also,

425
00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,400
Speaker 10: and like I said, Morswelle, four and seven last year,

426
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 10: already three and one this year, turn around quick. And

427
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 10: I love their facilities here too, like just cool. They

428
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:37,159
Speaker 10: had a picture of me with a Coonskin cap on.

429
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 10: Just awesome stuff, awesome stuff, like tell ya that was awesome.

430
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 10: But yeah, coach Gillan was great. We talked to him

431
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 10: a bit in our second big hit on that WHR plus.

432
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 10: But I think he could, he could, He could beat

433
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:51,640
Speaker 10: me up. Still, he's in great shape.

434
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 5: Well gosh, well that would be a hell of a

435
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,160
Speaker 5: Friday operation though football A little morning, ye know, save

436
00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 5: that for the playoffs when Morzwell makes that run here,

437
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,159
Speaker 5: all right, Dom, you try to talk me off the

438
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 5: ledge in Notre Dame last week, it didn't work with

439
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,479
Speaker 5: Row and two. Are we firing Chris Ash?

440
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean yeah, people losing jobs this morning?

441
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know. I mean I came.

442
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 10: I'm usually captain eternal optimist here and I don't know

443
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 10: what to make of what I watched on Saturday night.

444
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 4: It was that was tough. I mean, forty points should

445
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 4: win you a ball game.

446
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,880
Speaker 10: And how perfect that it was Tyler buck This wasn't

447
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 10: the reason they lost, but Tyler buckering them hole, Like,

448
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 10: how perfect was that?

449
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,160
Speaker 4: In a terrible way. This defense needs to figure it out.

450
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 10: They're getting zero rush in the quarterback, they're not sending

451
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 10: pressure a lot, they're playing soft coverage. Hobbs can't play

452
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 10: Gray looks hobbled like I don't know drastic changes.

453
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 4: There's two schools of thought here.

454
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,880
Speaker 10: You're four points away from being top three in the country,

455
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,360
Speaker 10: or you're zero and two and your defense is a

456
00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 10: far cry from what it was a year ago with

457
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,080
Speaker 10: largely the same personnel, which I think is the most

458
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,880
Speaker 10: head scratching. And why all eyes are on Chris Ash

459
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 10: because you have minus t tackle right and Xavier Wats,

460
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 10: who's an All American like you have largely the same

461
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,199
Speaker 10: cast of characters. I think that's what's so frustrating about it.

462
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 10: But ten straight wins is the expectation has to happen.

463
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 10: But even still, you don't have that data point of

464
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 10: a Texas A and M win that you had a

465
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 10: year ago. But just as the offense improved from week

466
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 10: one to week twelve last year, I guess Chris ash

467
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,560
Speaker 10: is just gonna have to earn his respect from me

468
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:32,200

502
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 10: Okay, I think is going to be Colts twenty seven

503
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,200
Speaker 10: Titans ten.

504
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 4: How about that. I think it's I think it's I

505
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 4: think it's a solid win the Colts. Titans.

506
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 10: Look, cam Wart's the truth now and he's gonna be good.

508
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 10: the Colts are humming. I like it on the road,

509
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 10: big win on the road. So that's what I'm expecting.

00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 6: Oh, ten in a row?

545
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,439
Speaker 5: I mean, it's just you can't even talk about ten

546
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 5: in a row. You got to win one, damn. I mean,

547

549
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 5: he can't be talking about ten in a row just yet.

550
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 6: Just get one for your sake. I know Todd Meyer

551
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 6: would love to see Purdue.

552
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 5: Didn't Purdue move the ball up and down the field.

553
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:58,360
Speaker 5: In USC they did okay.

554
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 6: They made a bunch of mistakes cost them, but yeah

555
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 6: they did okay. As far as doing okay, twenty seven

556
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 6: to ten prediction he had for the Colts in Nashville

557
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 6: against the Titans, I could see it happening. But seventeen

558
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 6: points in an NFL game, that's a lot of points.

559
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:16,680
Speaker 6: Twenty seven ten.

560
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 9: Yeah, we'll give our predictions later this show, for sure.

561
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 9: But getting back to the Fever a little bit, Mark,

562
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,680
Speaker 9: I sent you some audio earlier, and I would love

563
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 9: for people to hear this because I think this kind

564
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 9: of encapsulates just how special this season is, what it

565
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,160
Speaker 9: means to advance, and also just so many moving parts.

566
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 9: You have a new head coach, not new head coach

567
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 9: to the league, but new to the franchise is Stephanie White.

568
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 9: Coming back to the Fever, you got Kelsey Mitchell winning

569
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 9: her first playoff series after being with such a you know,

570
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,800
Speaker 9: program in franchise that had been losing for so long,

571
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 9: and then you find a way on the road last night.

572
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:56,199
Speaker 9: So one of my buddies, Meg Hall, who covers the

573
00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 9: league for USA today, she had a chance to add

574
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,359
Speaker 9: ask the players, what does Stephanie White mean to you?

575
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 9: We've heard how much you mean to her roles of verse.

576
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 9: What do you have to say? Here's what they said

577
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 9: about their head coach.

578
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 11: This questions for Kilsea.

579
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:13,880
Speaker 9: Coach White has done a good job of talking about

580
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 9: how much you guys mean to her.

581
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:16,359
Speaker 2: What does she mean to you?

582
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 5: Maybe you as well, you want to jump in.

583
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:24,120
Speaker 11: I've had five coaches in eight years. I've been on

584
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 11: you know, the worst record teams here in the end

585
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,920
Speaker 11: a few years. So I know where my career started at.

586
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 11: I know what I've kind of had to go through,

587
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 11: the kind of being this position. And I've never had

588
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 11: a coach that poured into me respectfully like Steph has

589
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,919
Speaker 11: I go worun value and I've never really felt that

590
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:44,919
Speaker 11: as a pro. And so for the first time in

591
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:46,920
Speaker 11: my career, I really feel like I have someone that

592
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 11: value what I bring to the team. Was a player

593
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,919
Speaker 11: and a person, not just a player, but as a person.

594
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,600
Speaker 11: So I always loved Steph because she gave me an

595
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 11: opportunity to kind of be who I am. And it's

596
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 11: hard to do that and be that as a professional athlete.

597
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,639
Speaker 11: And when you find coaches I believe in you. I

598
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 11: know I'll never take it for granted.

599
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 2: So thank you coach for me.

600
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:09,000
Speaker 7: I'm just grateful to be able to get get back

601
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 7: to Aniana and be able to be next to the

602
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 7: coach that coached me my second year in the league.

603
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 4: Uh.

604
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:19,280
Speaker 7: And you know, and and just her believing and me

605
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,679
Speaker 7: trusting in me to lead this team. Uh, that's a

606
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 7: bye of wing on my shoulder. But hey, I've been

607
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,440
Speaker 7: been through it before and I could do it. H

608
00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 7: And just she does an amazing job for it for

609
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 7: every person, just not just me and Kelsey, but every

610
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 7: single person the team that she believed in and she

611
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,880
Speaker 7: poured into every single person. It doesn't matter how you play,

612
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:40,600
Speaker 7: with how many minutes you're gonna get, she gonna tell

613
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 7: you be ready at all times, go out there and

614
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,640
Speaker 7: do your part. And so and like, that's one thing

615
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,399
Speaker 7: I love about steph how she believed in every single person.

616
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:49,639
Speaker 7: She trusts us no right or what.

617
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 9: Now, as they're saying these responses, you have Stephanie White

618
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 9: wiping tears away from her eyes after a dramatic win

619
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:00,919
Speaker 9: and kind of get her flats there while she can

620
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 9: still smell them. So quite the moment for that team

621
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,400
Speaker 9: and something I want to highlight because I think that

622
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 9: again sums up what this season has been for them. Yes,

623
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 9: it's been trying, it's been hard, it's been injury riddled,

624
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 9: but they found a way and did it together. And

625
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 9: then when you look at that locker room celebration afterwards,

626
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:19,840
Speaker 9: the joy, the I think conviction and also kind of

627
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 9: like just this middle fingered everybody else's mentality is a

628
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 9: good thing for this group.

629
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:26,320
Speaker 2: And so yeah, as.

630
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,160
Speaker 9: Tyre's Halliburton said last week when he was at Game

631
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 9: two or earlier this we I'm sorry for Game two

632
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,159
Speaker 9: at Gamebridge, he said, Hey, nothing like play at basketball

633
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 9: Gambergs field House and we'll get at least one more

634
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 9: game of it coming up here soon.

635
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:41,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was terrific to watch them just continue to

636
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 6: evolve through all of the losses. From Caitlyn Clark, Sophie

637
00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 6: Cunningham too, it just go on and on down the list. Mark,

638
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 6: do you also have the cup from stuff and why

639
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 6: she's talking about the togetherness of this team that kept

640
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,320
Speaker 6: them together throughout all of the losses and all the things.

641
00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,320
Speaker 6: But she has been consistent on that throughout the year,

642
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 6: about just their resiliency and how tight they are and

643
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 6: how they constantly Kevin just pick one another up week

644
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 6: after week after week.

645
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, they've asked Stephanie White to glue together a Kevin

646
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 5: Bowen art project from back in the day. That's what

647
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 5: she's had to do. She's had to pick up the pieces.

648
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 5: And you know, we didn't mention or you failed to

649
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 5: mention to want to Bonner just quit on the team,

650
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 5: you know upright? You know what a month into the season,

651
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 5: two months into the season there and to be one

652
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 5: of the final four teams pretty darn remarkable. So again

653
00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 5: we talked about its lead off the show. You know,

654
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 5: there's all these different sports stories, pretty special sports stories

655
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 5: throughout the last calendar year, whether it's AU football, whether

656
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,480
Speaker 5: it's not named football, whether it's Purdue basketball doing Purdue

657
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 5: basketball things. Obviously, the Pacers and now the Fever more

658
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 5: of a resilient story than anything. Obviously, we'll see what

659
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 5: happens coming up here in the semi finals. But hell,

660
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 5: hell of a story.

661
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 6: Yeah here with Stephanie White just returning all the kind

662
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 6: words that are teammates and their players were given her

663
00:29:57,760 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 6: on their season so far.

664
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,640
Speaker 9: This is a group that confidence is really never Wavered.

665
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 12: You know, we've been in in every kind of situation

666
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 12: you can imagine, and we've been able to find ways

667
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 12: to put ourselves in position to win. And this will

668
00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 12: be no different. Obviously it's going to be on the

669
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 12: opponent's home floor, but you know it doesn't matter. I

670
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 12: think for us are if we maintain our attention to detail,

671
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 12: if we continue the defensive effort that we had tonight

672
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 12: and we shoot with confidence, you know, we give ourselves

673
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 12: a chance. And this group has continued to show their

674
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 12: heart and their character night in and.

675
00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 6: Night out, and they have done that, and they just

676
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 6: continued to roll on. And much like the Pacers who

677
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 6: had a rough start since starting two and four, this team,

678
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 6: if you include the Commissioner's Cup twenty seven and sixteen

679
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 6: I'm sorry, twenty five and sixteen, since then, they just

680
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 6: keep coming back and coming back and coming back. And

681
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 6: they will start their five game semi final series James

682
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,479
Speaker 6: at Las Vegas for the first two games. And if

683
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 6: there is one, you know, little nick in the armor

684
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 6: here for this team, they have not played particularly well

685
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 6: on the road all year long.

686
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 9: Yeah, and I would say the other nick is you're

687
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 9: going to be the best player in the world in

688
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 9: Asia Wilson, so that is certainly a tall task.

689
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 5: They set a franchise record for road wins this year.

690
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 5: Am I wrong on that?

691
00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 2: I would have to look up. I was trusting Jeff there.

692
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 2: But getting back to.

693
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 5: The Commissioner's Cup on the road against the Link, yeah.

694
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 9: Well I'm sorry, But getting back to the matchup itself,

695
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 9: I think Asia Wilson obviously the top the Scott Report

696
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 9: for that team. She's the best play in the world,

697
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 9: like I said, And they have two other or three

698
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 9: other Olympians on that team, and Jackie Young former Indian

699
00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 9: high school basketball legend, you know, Chelsea Gray and Jewel Lloyd,

700
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 9: so a lot of town yeah, and Jewel Lloyd former

701
00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 9: Notre Dame vide Irish.

702
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 4: Yeah.

703
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 6: I'm just looking over their losses and in the majority

704
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 6: obviously it's going to happen everywhere, but they just keep

705
00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 6: getting results one way or the other. They come back

706
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 6: and they win. They got a big win on the

707
00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 6: road last night, so they carried over that momentum from

708
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 6: the other night. Just scrappy. One of the things I

709
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 6: did notice last night to James, they did a really

710
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 6: nice job of getting their post players passes in the

711
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:11,320
Speaker 6: post last.

712
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,200
Speaker 4: Night, over and over and over. They did a really

713
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:13,959
Speaker 4: nice job of that.

714
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 9: So yeah, thought Leah Boston was big time late and

715
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 9: I thought she saw some pretty good composure there. I

716
00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 9: know it got a little dust up at one point

717
00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 9: throughout the game. She got an arm pen by Brionna Jones.

718
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,360
Speaker 9: I have no problem with that reaction because you can

719
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 9: get injured like that, So glad she's healthy. Showed some

720
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 9: fire and some grit there, and then again, just the

721
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:35,200
Speaker 9: poise you saw from the Fever was in stark contrast

722
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:37,800
Speaker 9: from what we saw from the Atlanta Dream who took

723
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 9: some of the worst shots and made some of the

724
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 9: worst decisions you'll see, and it cost them their season.

725
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 6: All right, Coming up in a minute, we'll talk to

726
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 6: Greg Gragstraw about all things football and Indiana Sports. Matt

Speaker 1: Radio ninety three five and one oh seven five the fan.

733
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 6: Little Depeche Mode on a Friday morning, Mark Dyke Dan

734
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 6: digging that you know.

735
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 2: Depeche Mode, James, no idea. Does that make us old?

736
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 4: Mark?

737
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 6: I don't know what that means.

738
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 2: Keep me out of that conversation. A young man, young

739
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:33,320
Speaker 2: at heart, young.

740
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 6: At heart, always on the go, always telling us what's

741
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 6: going on. That would be Greg Rakestraw joining us now

742
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,680
Speaker 6: on the Payless Liquors outline. You're a depeche Mode guy.

743
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:44,240
Speaker 4: Right, Greg? Absolutely?

744
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:47,240
Speaker 13: Now, this is the very young and poppy depeche Mode,

745
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,400
Speaker 13: not the early nineties kind of freerunners of goth and

746
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 13: emo depeche Mode. But much like Office Space, I celebrate

747
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 13: the entire catalog.

748
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 2: I like it.

749
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 6: You've got a big catalog of high school football games

750
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:01,959
Speaker 6: coming up tonight. I know you're excited about that. We

751
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 6: were talking at through Dominic Miranda Operation Football Channel thirteen

752
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,240
Speaker 6: a minute ago. Where are your eyes on high school

753
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:08,920
Speaker 6: football tonight?

754
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 13: So Ben Davis and Warren Central is my game. They

755
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 13: are meeting for the one hundred and first time. They

756
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:20,680
Speaker 13: have played every year since nineteen thirty seven. Warren leads

757
00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,799
Speaker 13: the overall series, but this has been remarkably even. As

758
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:28,120
Speaker 13: of late the last sixteen games have been split aight apiece.

759
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 13: Three of the last four games have been decided by

760
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:33,800
Speaker 13: a field goal or less, and I think the last

761
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,280
Speaker 13: time I was on the call of this game, Warren

762
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 13: came from behind to win fifty seven to fifty six.

763
00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 13: So anything can happen in one of what is truly

764
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,000
Speaker 13: one of the states great rivalry games.

765
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 9: So rake we look at Ben Davis, there are usually friendly,

766
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 9: a very good team that won three this year, lost

767
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,359
Speaker 9: a lot of talent to graduation, one of them being

768
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,799
Speaker 9: mister football Mark Zachary. So what do you see for

769
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,319
Speaker 9: this team tonight and how they could possibly pull off

770
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 9: anupset against more Central.

771
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,879
Speaker 13: Well, they found their offense and that's impressive because well,

772
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 13: you kind of need that score, and b they're playing

773
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,600
Speaker 13: a freshman quarterback, and so the fact they put up

774
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:12,920
Speaker 13: thirty five against Center Grove last week was pretty impressive.

775
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 13: Problem is they keep up sixty three points.

776
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 4: Now.

777
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 13: Warren is not the offensive team that Center Grove is.

778
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 13: Center Grove is one of the three or four best

779
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,920
Speaker 13: teams in the state. Warren is probably more of a

780
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:27,880
Speaker 13: of a right around tenth. I think they're raighted eleventh

781
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:31,360
Speaker 13: this week. I think that's fair for them Warren's defense

782
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 13: is not as dominant as it was a year ago,

783
00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,760
Speaker 13: but it is still kind of what carries that team.

784
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:40,880
Speaker 13: Warren is kind of figuring some things out offensively, but

785
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 13: for Ben Davis, keep the offense going and if you

786
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 13: can get the ground game going, that might be your

787
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:50,240
Speaker 13: best defense tonight, knowing that Ben Davis has been undersize

788
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 13: defensively this year, they are playing some seniors, but a

789
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:54,920
Speaker 13: lot of these are kids that have been backups over

790
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 13: the course of the last couple of years. So I

791
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 13: think having that offense continue and maybe keep their defense

792
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:03,480
Speaker 13: off the field, it's probably the best way to go

793
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:04,720
Speaker 13: for russ Man's group tonight.

794
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 4: Rake.

795
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,880
Speaker 5: Not often we say so many college football os should

796
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,080
Speaker 5: be on the state in the month of September, particularly

797
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 5: the state in Bloomington, but that is the case here

798
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 5: coming up tomorrow night Indiana and Illinois. First off, the

799
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 5: atmosphere should be absolutely through the roof. Secondly, massive, I

800
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 5: think early season playoff implications. I know it sounds weird

801
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,319
Speaker 5: to say, but how would you kind of describe what

802
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 5: this means for kurtz Signetti's second season.

803
00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:34,399
Speaker 13: I think that massive playoff implications is the way to go.

804
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 4: What's stunned me.

805
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:39,319
Speaker 13: And that's stunned. But it's just like it shows you

806
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:43,040
Speaker 13: where Indiana football has gotten so fast in less than

807
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:47,480
Speaker 13: two seasons. I think that the ticket resale price was

808
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 13: like one hundred and sixty. To get in parking was like,

809
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:53,720
Speaker 13: you know, again, on the resale market was like two hundred.

810
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:57,479
Speaker 13: That's kind of a sign. Is a rather important game.

811
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 13: These are programs that have occasionally been good, frankly Illinois

812
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:05,480
Speaker 13: more than Indiana, but they rarely have been good simultaneously.

813
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,719
Speaker 13: So the fact that this is the NBC game and

814
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 13: one of the most important games of the weekend is

815
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 13: jaw dropping. But I also think that this game frankly

816
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:19,120
Speaker 13: has more importance for Indiana it does Illinois. You know,

817
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:22,440
Speaker 13: I'm not sure Indiana gets back in the CFP conversation

818
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 13: if they were to lose at home in this one.

819
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 13: So I think this is huge for both teams, probably

820
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 13: a little bit bigger for Indiana.

821
00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 6: Greg Greg Straw on the Payloss Slickers Hotline, here's a

822
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 6: straight out question for you, because you watch every play

823
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 6: and do the post game, and do the pre do

824
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:43,480
Speaker 6: the preseason games on television, how good are the Colts?

825
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:45,439
Speaker 4: They've been Damn good.

826
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 13: So far. They've been amongst one of the best teams,

827
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:51,080
Speaker 13: and I found myself checking NFL Power rankings again, which

828
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:52,799
Speaker 13: I hadn't had to worry about over the course of

829
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,080
Speaker 13: the last few years. And I'm not sure the great

830
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:58,319
Speaker 13: importance of them in the first place, but this has

831
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 13: been fun. Obviously, I think think you know the stat

832
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 13: buy now two an oh for the first time in

833
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:04,919
Speaker 13: sixteen years. And by the way, folks will be able

834
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:06,799
Speaker 13: to keep giving that stat as long as the Colts

835
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 13: keep winning. That stat's good for like twelve more weeks

836
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 13: if the Colts keep winning. Since the two thousand and

837
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 13: nine team, defensively obviously was a regression last week, Sean

838
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 13: Payton can really coach bo Nicks is really good. You've

839
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:23,760
Speaker 13: got a little tape around. You didn't have Mooney Ward.

840
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:28,080
Speaker 13: That changes. You didn't have Layatu Latsu that changes as well.

841
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:31,399
Speaker 13: So defensively it was it was a step back, no doubt.

842
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:35,600
Speaker 13: But what this team's been able to do offensively, knowing

843
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 13: what the ultimate question was going into the season, that

844
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:44,239
Speaker 13: has been wonderful to see so offensively, I think this

845
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:47,240
Speaker 13: group's pretty good, and it's the first time we've said

846
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:50,160
Speaker 13: that since probably the twenty twenty season.

847
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 9: So, Rick, I want to pivot back to high school

848
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 9: football for just a second. I got a chance to

849
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 9: see Charlie Spiegel, the States all time league rusher at

850
00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:02,319
Speaker 9: newpal years ago, and I thought no one would ever

851
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 9: come close to his rushing record over ten thousand rushing yards,

852
00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:09,160
Speaker 9: most in state history. But then you got Miles and

853
00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 9: Gloughlin from Knox High School. He ran for nine touchdowns

854
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 9: I believe last week, or four hundred yards, and so

855
00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 9: he's climbing that charty second right now, what do you

856
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,319
Speaker 9: make of his career and what it could mean to

857
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,560
Speaker 9: possibly come close, if not break that record, and they

858
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:26,960
Speaker 9: have to go on a run at the end of

859
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,239
Speaker 9: the year, I believe to mathematically make it possible.

860
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:32,799
Speaker 2: But just the fact that it's a conversation.

861
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:36,439
Speaker 13: Yep, you have couched that properly. I thought Spiegel put

862
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 13: that record so far out into the end of the

863
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:43,359
Speaker 13: distance that nobody would even get within eyeshot of it.

864
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:44,799
Speaker 4: So the fact that.

865
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:47,280
Speaker 13: There is a young man a handful of years later

866
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:53,319
Speaker 13: that has that possibility is remarkably impressive. Knox would again

867
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:55,799
Speaker 13: have to go on a deep run, and Knox as

868
00:39:55,840 --> 00:39:59,600
Speaker 13: a team, it's kind of quirky. They're a three A

869
00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:02,600
Speaker 13: score that plays primarily in a one A two A league,

870
00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 13: just because those are their natural rivals. You know, they're

871
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 13: they're kind of the the biggest town in a two

872
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:12,520
Speaker 13: or three county area, but that's not overly populated, so

873
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 13: it's kind of the nature of it.

874
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 4: He should be able to.

875
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 13: Rack up some pretty significant rushing totals for the final

876
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:22,960
Speaker 13: five weeks of the regular season. Can they go deeper

877
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:24,719
Speaker 13: into the playoffs? I think they may have been a

878
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:29,279
Speaker 13: regional team last year. You remember, right again, I've been

879
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,520
Speaker 13: to Knox not normally a team that is kind of

880
00:40:31,560 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 13: on my radar. But we'll see how things play out.

881
00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:38,000
Speaker 13: But you can you phrase it properly? The fact that

882
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,560
Speaker 13: we're having the conversation tells you all you know about

883
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 13: the special career that young man has had.

884
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 5: Rake last one from me and I get that it's

885
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 5: maybe a oh, let's dust off the summer topics, but

886
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 5: there was some relevancy for the reason behind this. Did

887
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:56,720
Speaker 5: you see Kyle Nunrip's poll earlier this week in regards

888
00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 5: to a shot clock in the high school basketball by chance?

889
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:00,400
Speaker 4: I want?

890
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 13: The positive result was sixty three percent. Is that what

891
00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:03,399
Speaker 13: I saw.

892
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, So Kentucky, I believe as a state I will.

893
00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:07,879
Speaker 2: Go with the shot clock here.

894
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 5: Coming up for the high school basketball season, Kyle put

895
00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:13,520
Speaker 5: out a poll in regards to Indiana, what do you

896
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 5: think about adding a shot clock in Indian high school basketball?

897
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:20,440
Speaker 5: Did it surprise you? Only sixty three percent said yes

898
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 5: to it? Yes, beyond time, twenty percent said no, no need,

899
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:27,400
Speaker 5: ten percent said trial run in four a five percent

900
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:28,240
Speaker 5: said they're torn.

901
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:33,239
Speaker 13: I'm surprised that instead of only sixty three percent you

902
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:35,720
Speaker 13: said that, it was as many as sixty three percent. Really,

903
00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:40,080
Speaker 13: as somebody that broadcasts in the neighborhood of sixty five

904
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:42,479
Speaker 13: to seventy high school games in the course of a year,

905
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:46,279
Speaker 13: I just don't see people are not standing in the

906
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:49,560
Speaker 13: corner and putting the ball on their hip. Where you

907
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:52,719
Speaker 13: see it is at the end of a quarter where

908
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:55,959
Speaker 13: a team will try to hang on for forty five

909
00:41:56,080 --> 00:42:00,319
Speaker 13: seconds to a minute, not just stall and take the

910
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:04,239
Speaker 13: air out of the basketball. The team locally that obviously

911
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:08,239
Speaker 13: will run the longest sets is Carnival. That is the

912
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:12,200
Speaker 13: team that is, you know, gonna run, run the offense

913
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:16,680
Speaker 13: until they get the look they want. But you frankly

914
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:18,759
Speaker 13: you see it from Lawrence North, you see it from

915
00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:20,960
Speaker 13: Ben Davis. So this is this is not you're like,

916
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 13: you'll go to your BORI won to win a game

917
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:25,319
Speaker 13: eight to six. That's that's not the way the game

918
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:27,759
Speaker 13: is played anymore. You likely see it more here in

919
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,920
Speaker 13: the four A level, just because you've got really good coaches,

920
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:33,359
Speaker 13: they're like, all right, we're gonna control tempo at least

921
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:35,120
Speaker 13: for the end of a quarter, or we're gonna run

922
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 13: a specific set without a shot clock until we get

923
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:41,360
Speaker 13: the look that we want to have. And so I

924
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:45,719
Speaker 13: just I don't think it's necessary now. The reason that

925
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:48,560
Speaker 13: I have told people why it also isn't going to happen.

926
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,279
Speaker 13: This more applies to the one A and two A.

927
00:42:52,680 --> 00:42:55,120
Speaker 13: You have to have over four hundred shot clock operators.

928
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,400
Speaker 13: You will have to ask schools to spend money and

929
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:02,719
Speaker 13: upgrade and update for abilities. At the larger schools, those

930
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:04,880
Speaker 13: shot clocks already exist, are already there. It's how you

931
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:08,799
Speaker 13: display that you know the time above the backboard, and

932
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:11,200
Speaker 13: so that's just adding a switch. That's not a big deal.

933
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 13: At some smaller places that is not the case. So

934
00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:19,319
Speaker 13: there's an expense and more personnel that is required which

935
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,400
Speaker 13: is frankly the biggest reason why I don't think it

936
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:25,399
Speaker 13: has happened in this state. So frankly, at some point

937
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:28,760
Speaker 13: it's going to happen because the National Federation will mandate

938
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,720
Speaker 13: it happens, and then once that is the case, Indiana

939
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:34,400
Speaker 13: will have to go forward with it. But just because

940
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:37,520
Speaker 13: Kentucky has it, that frankly may be more reason for

941
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:38,719
Speaker 13: Indiana to not happen.

942
00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,720
Speaker 9: Rake, I know, I want to say Illinois, my home state,

943
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 9: will implement the shot clock this upcoming basketball season. So

944
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 9: I am very curious see how that goes, because, as

945
00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:51,320
Speaker 9: we know, I love high school sports. But the Revski

946
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:53,960
Speaker 9: yelled at enough as it is the scorekeepers and the

947
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,960
Speaker 9: shot clock operators. But I would imagine if you have

948
00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 9: a shot clock, you know, a real one in a game,

949
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:03,120
Speaker 9: that'll take some kinks to get through. So very curious

950
00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 9: on that front. But to pivot to more pressing issues,

951
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:09,440
Speaker 9: the Colts are two and zero. They're going to Tennessee

952
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 9: first Division game of the season. Rake, how do they

953
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:18,279
Speaker 9: stay undefeated and avoid the trap game in Nashville?

954
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:21,720
Speaker 13: Well, this is a learning experience for this football team,

955
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:26,160
Speaker 13: and while this level of success is new to this group,

956
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,840
Speaker 13: This is where the veteran status kicks in. You know,

957
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 13: we talked about, you know, what Tyler Warren is doing

958
00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:35,399
Speaker 13: and the huge impact he has had. But it's not

959
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:38,280
Speaker 13: like there are a lot of rookies that are involved

960
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:41,480
Speaker 13: in this cult success. These are guys that have been around,

961
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:46,040
Speaker 13: and these are guys that know and so I don't

962
00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:47,799
Speaker 13: think this group's going to be fat and happy going

963
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 13: to Tennessee. I also think that if this was the

964
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:55,280
Speaker 13: previous defensive scheme that was more about kind of laying

965
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:57,480
Speaker 13: back and waiting for the quarterback to make a mistake.

966
00:44:58,120 --> 00:44:59,879
Speaker 13: You know, how many times have we said, hey man,

967
00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:03,040
Speaker 13: look at the great passing completion this young quarterbacks at

968
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 13: against this Colts defense, not exactly how lou Anarrimo's defense

969
00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:10,400
Speaker 13: is wired. So I think this sets up for the

970
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:13,920
Speaker 13: Colts to be successful coming up on Sunday afternoon.

971
00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:15,359
Speaker 2: And actually one last one.

972
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:18,360
Speaker 9: We saw the Fever survive last night in advance of

973
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,720
Speaker 9: the semi finals on the road in Atlanta. They actually

974
00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:24,560
Speaker 9: finished this year with their most road wins in the

975
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:27,080
Speaker 9: regular season. They were eleven and twenty two on the road,

976
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 9: and they also had the Commissioner Cup Championship was another

977
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 9: road win doesn't count, but their resiliency rake you know,

978
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:37,720
Speaker 9: what do you make of it? And also them capturing

979
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:41,400
Speaker 9: their first playoff series victory since they went to the

980
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:44,920
Speaker 9: finals in twenty fifteen with one Tamika Catchings.

981
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 13: You know, I thought the best comparison as to what

982
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:52,600
Speaker 13: the Fever were and what the Fever are, Scott Agnes

983
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:57,799
Speaker 13: showed a picture of the last Fever playoff game at

984
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:02,120
Speaker 13: the field House in twenty sixteen, and the covers were

985
00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:05,760
Speaker 13: up in the upper deck, the lower bawl was maybe

986
00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:09,080
Speaker 13: a third full, and that was basically the end of

987
00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:11,399
Speaker 13: the line for Tamika Catchings. That was, you know, one

988
00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:14,600
Speaker 13: of her last games, if not her last game with

989
00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 13: the Indiana Fever. So the fact that you can say

990
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:21,720
Speaker 13: any franchise had not you know, won a playoff game

991
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:25,600
Speaker 13: or a playoff series in nine years or ten years

992
00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:30,160
Speaker 13: is jaw dropping, And unless acknowledge that's, you know, being

993
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:35,280
Speaker 13: one of the bottom four teams in your league for

994
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:40,359
Speaker 13: seven seasons, it's pretty remarkable where you are now. Then

995
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:43,440
Speaker 13: you give the fact that, like if this was the

996
00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 13: old days of Twitter, when you were limited to one

997
00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:49,360
Speaker 13: hundred and forty characters, you would not be able to

998
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:52,560
Speaker 13: get all of the injured fever players on one tweet

999
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:54,920
Speaker 13: the way that they send them out the injury report

1000
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:58,319
Speaker 13: on a it would be like the dead Sea scrolls

1001
00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:01,719
Speaker 13: of Twitter to list all all of the injured players

1002
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:04,919
Speaker 13: that this team has. So they were playing with house

1003
00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:08,640
Speaker 13: money just making the playoffs, letting alone women a series,

1004
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:12,440
Speaker 13: let alone winning a game three, a decisive game on

1005
00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:15,800
Speaker 13: the road. And frankly, as I am watching that unfold

1006
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:18,560
Speaker 13: last night, and they scored the final seven points to

1007
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:21,320
Speaker 13: it on the road in the last two minutes, didn't

1008
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:24,319
Speaker 13: feel like April, May and June around here. It's an

1009
00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:29,279
Speaker 13: amazing the symmetry the folks at Pacier Sports Entertainment have

1010
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:30,879
Speaker 13: had in twenty twenty five.

1011
00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:35,960
Speaker 6: Good stuff. Greg, You might be my last holdout because

1012
00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:40,600
Speaker 6: I know you and I share this common fandom. Am

1013
00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:43,440
Speaker 6: I the last guy in Indiana or in this region

1014
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:46,799
Speaker 6: holding out? However, slim hope that the Reds can make

1015
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:47,799
Speaker 6: that final wild Guard?

1016
00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:51,319
Speaker 13: I mean they're what two games back with nine to play, right, yep?

1017
00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:56,560
Speaker 13: I mean they've not done anything consistently overwhelmed most of

1018
00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:59,680
Speaker 13: the season to let you think that's gonna happen. But

1019
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:04,239
Speaker 13: simply the mass keeps us paying attention not to mention

1020
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 13: something quite rare, a complete game shutout by any pitcher

1021
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:10,840
Speaker 13: these days. That was authored by Hunter Green yesterday.

1022
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:14,200
Speaker 6: Let's go, Let's go. Now you got me fired up again, Greg,

1023
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:15,320
Speaker 6: Thank you good.

1024
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:17,800
Speaker 13: That's what I'm airport. Happy Friday.

Speaker 6: for Saturday Night with James Voyd over in Nashville.

1031

Speaker 4: Do we met? No, we do not.

1036
00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:50,840
Speaker 13: That's a great song. Takes me back to nineteen ninety

1037
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:54,319
Speaker 13: eight seventh grade junior high, you know, trying to find

1038
00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 13: the courage and the gumption to go talk to the

1039
00:48:56,560 --> 00:48:59,840
Speaker 13: hot girl in the corner. We found it, and you

1040
00:48:59,880 --> 00:49:02,000
Speaker 13: know it was a big part of that Uh you know,

1041
00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:04,960
Speaker 13: just trying to trying to find that uh you know

1042
00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:07,680
Speaker 13: that that that courage and need when you're eleven, twelve

1043
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:09,480
Speaker 13: years old. Boys, that's what it's all about.

1044
00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:11,719
Speaker 2: You've come a long way.

1045
00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:14,880
Speaker 5: This team seems to have brands of armpit hair. And

1046
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:17,600
Speaker 5: he's going up to you know, Betty Jones and ask

1047
00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:22,600
Speaker 5: her home, oh man, when.

1048
00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:25,280
Speaker 13: You score a when you score a touchdown in Cadet football, Kevin,

1049
00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:26,880
Speaker 13: your life changes. I can tell you that.

1050
00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:32,320
Speaker 9: You know what, if it's speaking facts, start strutting a

1051
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 9: little bite tastes a little different after the game.

1052
00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:39,600
Speaker 5: There for Matt speaking of things tasting, did I get win?

1053
00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 5: I haven't seen it yet. I would love a link.

1054
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:44,879
Speaker 5: Is there a commercial with you and Rick Venturi out there?

1055
00:49:45,760 --> 00:49:46,200
Speaker 11: There is?

1056
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:49,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, I tell us more, and where is the link?

1057
00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:50,399
Speaker 4: People were?

1058
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 13: People were circulating that around last night on social media.

1059
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:54,759
Speaker 4: I guess it popped up.

1060
00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:58,560
Speaker 13: Postgame in the Cubs Reds game on Fox fifty nine.

1061
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:02,120
Speaker 13: They said was gonna come out this week, but they

1062
00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:04,120
Speaker 13: you know they I guess they meant late this week

1063
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:05,759
Speaker 13: because I've been kind of keeping an eye on it.

1064
00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:08,720
Speaker 13: I haven't seen it, but yeah, well McDonald's coke Venture

1065
00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:13,200
Speaker 13: combination spot with myself and Rick Venturi. I don't want

1066
00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:15,360
Speaker 13: to ruin it for people, but the essence of the

1067
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:21,640
Speaker 13: spot we're supposed to be Like in the radio booth,

1068
00:50:21,640 --> 00:50:24,160
Speaker 13: they turned it more into like, you know, somebody's bedroom

1069
00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:27,600
Speaker 13: doing a podcast. But at any rate, you know we're

1070
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:30,040
Speaker 13: we're doing the game the cold score a touchdown brought

1071
00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:32,319
Speaker 13: to you by McDonald's. And then Rick said something like,

1072
00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:35,239
Speaker 13: you know McDonald's pairs well with the great coke. And

1073
00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:38,440
Speaker 13: then being from the Midwest that we all are, especially

1074
00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:39,279
Speaker 13: me growing up.

1075
00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:39,920
Speaker 4: The way that I did.

1076
00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:43,320
Speaker 13: Uh, I called all cokes, or I should say I

1077
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:45,880
Speaker 13: called all soda and soft drinks. I called it pop.

1078
00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:48,520
Speaker 13: We used to have the pop fridge down on my

1079
00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:53,080
Speaker 13: grandpa's basement, uh, dedicated to all things soda. We just

1080
00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:55,359
Speaker 13: called it the pop fridge. So we go back and

1081
00:50:55,400 --> 00:50:57,919
Speaker 13: forth for a good ten seconds on just hey, what's

1082
00:50:57,920 --> 00:50:59,680
Speaker 13: it called around here? You call it coke, we call

1083
00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:01,520
Speaker 13: it pop, and we just kind of have some fun

1084
00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:05,440
Speaker 13: and uh, yeah, my first venture into cinema. My imb

1085
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:07,760
Speaker 13: D page can now be it can now be updated

1086
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:10,760
Speaker 13: with with the correct ventures on my resume.

1087
00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:13,799
Speaker 6: It only takes one thirty second spot and next thing

1088
00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:17,759
Speaker 6: you know, you've got commercials, feature length movies. Who knows

1089
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:18,239
Speaker 6: what's up?

1090
00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:19,400
Speaker 2: I think he's going to play.

1091
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:21,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, Mark, you've got to find a link.

1092
00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:23,400
Speaker 9: I'm gonna get Matt Taylor. I would like you to

1093
00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:24,880
Speaker 9: play me in a movie one day, please.

1094
00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:29,480
Speaker 13: Well, they asked me who was going to play me? Like,

1095
00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:31,560
Speaker 13: you really want me to be myself in this commercial?

1096
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:33,600
Speaker 13: It was either me or like Billy Bob Thornton or

1097
00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:37,160
Speaker 13: Chris Pratt. You know, the Chris Chris Pratt part is

1098
00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:40,040
Speaker 13: obviously dreaming a little bit. It's more like Billy Bob

1099
00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:43,319
Speaker 13: Thornton and sling Blade. But uh, we we had fun

1100
00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:45,799
Speaker 13: with it. It it was it was eye opening. I mean,

1101
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:48,680
Speaker 13: the the crew and the set people were great. You know,

1102
00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:51,080
Speaker 13: it took about four hours to do a thirty second

1103
00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:53,640
Speaker 13: spot because we had to shoot it from like five

1104
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:57,520
Speaker 13: different angles, so that part was very eye opening. Uh So, yeah,

1105
00:51:57,560 --> 00:51:59,759
Speaker 13: I can't I can't wait for my next venture. I mean,

1106
00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:03,440
Speaker 13: whether it's Days of our Lives soap opera or you know,

1107
00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:05,920
Speaker 13: now I'm gonna be selling tires, you know, down the street,

1108
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:08,799
Speaker 13: the local car dealership, whatever, whatever it brings me, I'm

1109
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:09,560
Speaker 13: excited for it.

1110
00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:11,479
Speaker 5: Before we get deep into the weeds of Week three.

1111
00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:14,439
Speaker 5: I also want to make sure we point this out.

1112
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:18,720
Speaker 5: I absolutely love when you give us the in booth

1113
00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:23,000
Speaker 5: camera reactions to big plays, and you did it earlier

1114
00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:26,120
Speaker 5: this week on the Spencer Strader field goal. It's why

1115
00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:29,800
Speaker 5: I love sports. I was just dying at it. I

1116
00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:33,560
Speaker 5: couldn't get enough of it. Holy blake, where's the tile

1117
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:36,000
Speaker 5: at all? I believe was something that might have been

1118
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:38,719
Speaker 5: uttered at the end of that. I loved it. Keep

1119
00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:39,280
Speaker 5: those coming.

1120
00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 13: Yeah, most people didn't get that, right. I think I

1121
00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:44,200
Speaker 13: might be the first NFL play by play guy in

1122
00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:46,760
Speaker 13: the history of the sports to drop in a movie quote,

1123
00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:49,200
Speaker 13: you know, for a game winner walk off field goal.

1124
00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:52,560
Speaker 13: Most people didn't get the Clark w Griswold reference because

1125
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:54,879
Speaker 13: you know, in that moment, I was just sort of going,

1126
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:57,799
Speaker 13: I was riffing. It was unscripted, organic, and I just

1127
00:52:57,880 --> 00:52:59,600
Speaker 13: kind of felt it flow out.

1128
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:00,759
Speaker 4: You know, it was.

1129
00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:03,480
Speaker 13: Very just in the moment. You know, it's like, Wow,

1130
00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:07,719
Speaker 13: I'm going on this rant, this exuberant, excited rand for

1131
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:09,720
Speaker 13: the Colts going too and oh for the first time

1132
00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:12,680
Speaker 13: since two thousand and nine, you know, snatching victory from

1133
00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:15,880
Speaker 13: the jaws of defeat with the Spencer Straighter missed sixty

1134
00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:18,640
Speaker 13: yarder than the penalty with leverage, and then he walks

1135
00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:20,640
Speaker 13: it off on a forty five yard field goal. Like

1136
00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:23,480
Speaker 13: just the range of emotions right there. I felt like

1137
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,440
Speaker 13: Clark w Griswold, you know, going nuts after getting the

1138
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:29,840
Speaker 13: Jelly of the Month club check instead of the Christmas bonus.

1139
00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:33,400
Speaker 13: And it just it just happened organically, and it was

1140
00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:36,279
Speaker 13: it was really fun. And that's why you do it, Kevin,

1141
00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:39,799
Speaker 13: to your point, that's why you prepare, and that's why

1142
00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:42,759
Speaker 13: you know you go through the month of August and

1143
00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:45,200
Speaker 13: the preseason and the long days to get the moments

1144
00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:45,400
Speaker 13: like that.

1145
00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:48,440
Speaker 6: Well, everybody's enjoyed a lot of moments for these first

1146
00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:51,480
Speaker 6: couple of weeks for the Indianapolis Colts, and I for one,

1147
00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:54,240
Speaker 6: and it feels like, based on our predictions, other people

1148
00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:57,719
Speaker 6: agree like, it feels like Sunday is an opportunity for

1149
00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 6: the Colts to exercise even more demons that have surfaced

1150
00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:04,640
Speaker 6: over the last decade. Titans have been struggling, They got

1151
00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:07,320
Speaker 6: some injury concerns in their secondary, they got a brand

1152
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:10,840
Speaker 6: new quarterback who's only played two games. Like, am I

1153
00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:13,440
Speaker 6: wrong to feel like this should be a really an

1154
00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:16,520
Speaker 6: opportunity for the Colts to get a lot out against

1155
00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:17,520
Speaker 6: the Tennessee Titans.

1156
00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:19,759
Speaker 13: Here, Yeah, I mean, this is this is I mean,

1157
00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:22,560
Speaker 13: I've got the Taylor tidbits ready, but I'll just bub

1158
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:25,000
Speaker 13: blow one right here. I mean, to your point, Jeff,

1159
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:26,920
Speaker 13: you're exactly right. I mean, the Cults are off to

1160
00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:29,640
Speaker 13: this great start and I think perhaps taking a lot

1161
00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:32,080
Speaker 13: of people nationally off guard a little bit with their

1162
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:37,359
Speaker 13: you know, fantastic play and precise execution on offense. You know,

1163
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:39,440
Speaker 13: two and oh for the first time since two thousand

1164
00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:43,320
Speaker 13: and nine. That snapped the second longest active droughts without

1165
00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:46,760
Speaker 13: a two and oh start in the NFL. Cleveland continues

1166
00:54:46,800 --> 00:54:50,240
Speaker 13: to have the longest two and o droughts. They haven't

1167
00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:53,279
Speaker 13: been two and oh since nineteen ninety three. But yeah,

1168
00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:55,000
Speaker 13: to your point, I mean, the Cults are in first

1169
00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 13: place in the AFC South for the first time since

1170
00:54:57,200 --> 00:55:00,960
Speaker 13: twenty and twenty three, and you know, going down on

1171
00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:03,040
Speaker 13: the road, it's the first road game, it's the first

1172
00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:06,440
Speaker 13: AFC South game of the season for the Colts. You know,

1173
00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:10,279
Speaker 13: this would be a disappointment. You know, they're they're a

1174
00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:12,879
Speaker 13: team that's that's favored on paper, to go down there

1175
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:15,600
Speaker 13: and stub their tow that would sort of, you know,

1176
00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:17,920
Speaker 13: ends or at least, you know, derail some of the

1177
00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:20,239
Speaker 13: good mojo they've been able to wrap up the first

1178
00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:22,520
Speaker 13: two games of the season. You know, this feel good

1179
00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:25,760
Speaker 13: story with Daniel Jones coming back and his exodus for York,

1180
00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:28,560
Speaker 13: all the playmakers that he has on offense and new

1181
00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:31,760
Speaker 13: defensive scheme under Louis n Rumo. You want to continue

1182
00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:35,319
Speaker 13: this train, and I think everybody lost their minds. You know,

1183
00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:37,680
Speaker 13: three or four weeks ago, whatever it was, when the

1184
00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:40,160
Speaker 13: Colts announced that Daniel Jones was going to be the

1185
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:43,680
Speaker 13: starting quarterback over Anthony Richardson. Social media caught fire and

1186
00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:46,360
Speaker 13: I get it right, top five picks and you know

1187
00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:48,640
Speaker 13: he was going to have to be quarterback number two. Watching.

1188
00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:50,680
Speaker 13: But the good news is for the Colts is like

1189
00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:54,839
Speaker 13: all of their big offseason decisions they made this offseason

1190
00:55:55,080 --> 00:55:58,680
Speaker 13: are paying off big time. Jones over Richardson, the switch

1191
00:55:58,760 --> 00:56:02,080
Speaker 13: to new defensive under lu Ana Rumo, you bring into

1192
00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:04,440
Speaker 13: our various war and cam Binen in the secondary, you

1193
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:07,640
Speaker 13: draft Tyler Warren. It would just be a shame for

1194
00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:10,239
Speaker 13: the Colts to go down there and stub their toe

1195
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:13,000
Speaker 13: in a game that they probably should win on paper,

1196
00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:15,799
Speaker 13: and I try to get off their good start in

1197
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:18,200
Speaker 13: the AFC South, which has kind of plagued them. They're

1198
00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:21,240
Speaker 13: just three five and one record wise on the road

1199
00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:23,040
Speaker 13: in the division the last three years.

1200
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:26,440
Speaker 9: Again, we're talking to Mayte Matt Taylor Voss the Colts

1201
00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:29,680
Speaker 9: on the Palos Slickers hotline. He's given us his Taylor's

1202
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:32,799
Speaker 9: tidbits and so enlighten us more because I learned a

1203
00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:35,640
Speaker 9: lot there. And I will say I did have that

1204
00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:39,040
Speaker 9: streak stat earlier this week. I used it in the story.

1205
00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:41,799
Speaker 9: Actually so kind of wild that the Cleveland Browns have

1206
00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:44,320
Speaker 9: not started to and ll since before I was born.

1207
00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:46,600
Speaker 2: Mate, But I'll let you continue there, brother.

1208
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:47,640
Speaker 12: Yeah.

1209
00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:51,640
Speaker 13: They also had the longest Week one drought in the

1210
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:54,440
Speaker 13: history of the NFL. The Cults were number two before

1211
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:59,719
Speaker 13: they snapped that week with the win against the Miami Dolphins. Absolutely,

1212
00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:03,520
Speaker 13: all right, let's go Taylor tidbit number one officially right here.

1213
00:57:03,600 --> 00:57:05,880
Speaker 13: Let's talk about the pass rush in this game. Because

1214
00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:09,719
Speaker 13: cam Ward the rookie quarterback for Tennessee, guys know he's

1215
00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:13,440
Speaker 13: been sacked a whopping eleven times already in the NFL

1216
00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,760
Speaker 13: through two games. That's the most in the league. His

1217
00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:19,800
Speaker 13: eleven sacks through a pair of games also the third

1218
00:57:19,880 --> 00:57:23,000
Speaker 13: most times a rookie quarterback has been sacked in his

1219
00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:26,640
Speaker 13: team's first two games since the merger in nineteen seventy.

1220
00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:29,800
Speaker 13: He's also taken a bunch of quarterback hits. He's been

1221
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:32,720
Speaker 13: pressured on forty five percent of his dropbacks so far.

1222
00:57:33,240 --> 00:57:36,640
Speaker 13: But where does the pressure come from the Colts? Right?

1223
00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:40,280
Speaker 13: Last week, the Colts struggled to get pressure, consistent pressure anyways,

1224
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:44,560
Speaker 13: bo Knicks. As a team, the Colts only have four

1225
00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:48,400
Speaker 13: sacks through two games, and two of those are from

1226
00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:51,920
Speaker 13: blitzing defensive backs week one right Kenny Moore. The second

1227
00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 13: got one onto a Nick Cross had won in Week

1228
00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:59,640
Speaker 13: one as well. Solatu Latu missed last week. It's trending

1229
00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:03,480
Speaker 13: with his availability being there on Sunday. But where does

1230
00:58:03,520 --> 00:58:06,440
Speaker 13: the pass rush come in this game? What is the

1231
00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:08,320
Speaker 13: way the Colts are going to be able to disrupt

1232
00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:11,720
Speaker 13: cam Ward's comfort level after he really hasn't found that

1233
00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:14,280
Speaker 13: yet in two games in the NFL. He's got some

1234
00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:18,200
Speaker 13: off platform ability. You know, he's a very athletic quarterback.

1235
00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:20,120
Speaker 13: He can get out of the pocket. We know he's

1236
00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:22,080
Speaker 13: got a great arm. You know, he threw what that

1237
00:58:22,280 --> 00:58:25,400
Speaker 13: that thirty five yard pass across his body across the

1238
00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:29,080
Speaker 13: field to and you Minor. You know, their only touchdown

1239
00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:31,200
Speaker 13: of the season. So I want to see where the

1240
00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:33,800
Speaker 13: Colts pass rush is in week three and how they

1241
00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:35,960
Speaker 13: can kind of scheme up and keep cam Ward in

1242
00:58:36,040 --> 00:58:38,280
Speaker 13: the pocket and continue that stack parade.

1243
00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:39,640
Speaker 2: Matt Taylor, Is it you?

1244
00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:42,560
Speaker 5: And it's you and Charles Arbuckle, I know coming up

1245
00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:46,240
Speaker 5: this weekend coach Vinteria and physical health wise, unfortunately can't

1246
00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:48,520
Speaker 5: travel to road games. Is it you and Charles?

1247
00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:49,280
Speaker 4: All year on the road?

1248
00:58:49,560 --> 00:58:51,480
Speaker 5: I didn't know if Joe Writes was sprinkled in at all.

1249
00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:53,760
Speaker 13: Yeah, Joe's going to be sprinkled in for a couple

1250
00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:55,760
Speaker 13: of games throughout the season, you know, just with his

1251
00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:58,080
Speaker 13: schedule and me I think he's going to Germany with us.

1252
00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:01,480
Speaker 13: But Charles, I think is doing I don't know what

1253
00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:03,560
Speaker 13: the math is. He's doing at think at least five

1254
00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:05,480
Speaker 13: or six with us, and then Joe's.

1255
00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:06,080
Speaker 4: Doing the remainder.

1256
00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:09,480
Speaker 13: But we're incredibly blessed to have three different guys that

1257
00:59:09,520 --> 00:59:12,160
Speaker 13: we can call out of the bullpen this year. And

1258
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:15,720
Speaker 13: you know, I think most teams I'm being honest. Most

1259
00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:19,520
Speaker 13: teams struggle to have one good quality local analysts, and

1260
00:59:19,600 --> 00:59:23,040
Speaker 13: we're very blessed to have three. So from my standpoint,

1261
00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:25,280
Speaker 13: it's a it's a blessing and a pleasure to work

1262
00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:27,400
Speaker 13: with all of those guys. They all kind of bring

1263
00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:30,560
Speaker 13: their own energy, their own player and their own, you know,

1264
00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:34,560
Speaker 13: attacking style of approaching the broadcast from an analyst perspective.

1265
00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:38,160
Speaker 13: So I just adapt and modify, and I love working

1266
00:59:38,200 --> 00:59:39,760
Speaker 13: with all of those guys for different reasons.

1267
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:42,120
Speaker 5: I would agree. I think all three of you, along

1268
00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:44,919
Speaker 5: with the course yourself excellent and I believe free Big

1269
00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:49,000
Speaker 5: Max for life. After hearing this, Mark dightonugget chicken nuggets

1270
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:51,760
Speaker 5: for life. Okay, do we have the commercial.

1271
00:59:51,640 --> 00:59:53,520
Speaker 14: And the Colts, I'm just taking the lead with their

1272
00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:56,200
Speaker 14: first touchdown of the game. That means fans scoring three

1273
00:59:56,280 --> 00:59:59,320
Speaker 14: ten piece chicken McNuggets at McDonald's.

1274
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:00,960
Speaker 5: Best enjoyed with an ice cold coke.

1275
01:00:01,440 --> 01:00:03,320
Speaker 2: You mean pop no coke.

1276
01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:07,520
Speaker 14: That's what I said, rick against pop coke, pop coke,

1277
01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:10,120
Speaker 14: pop coke, ho coke.

1278
01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:13,200
Speaker 2: It's pop, that's right.

1279
01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:16,240
Speaker 6: The Colt's touchdown means a free ten piece chicken McNuggets.

1280
01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:18,600
Speaker 6: The next day in the en that's enjoyed with a coke.

1281
01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:20,640
Speaker 7: Anyone want to set up.

1282
01:00:20,800 --> 01:00:25,680
Speaker 5: Get out look at that unbelievable.

1283
01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:26,520
Speaker 4: Boy.

1284
01:00:26,560 --> 01:00:27,760
Speaker 2: Don't get him an oscar.

1285
01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:32,800
Speaker 5: I mean, they're going to Hollywood next week, but out there, gosh.

1286
01:00:33,960 --> 01:00:37,040
Speaker 13: Yeah, Tom Hanks at Forrest Gump. You know, Matthew McConaughey

1287
01:00:37,080 --> 01:00:40,720
Speaker 13: and Dallas Buyers Clubs and Matt Taylor the local McDonald's

1288
01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:43,480
Speaker 13: spot right, and the three greatest performances of all time.

1289
01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:47,520
Speaker 5: As Robert Redford exits, Matt Taylor enters unbelievable.

1290
01:00:47,560 --> 01:00:50,480
Speaker 9: I'll tell you what, Coach Materia, it doesn't sound like

1291
01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:52,720
Speaker 9: he's very hard to get him to argue for a bit.

1292
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:55,439
Speaker 9: You know, it seems like you do that a little

1293
01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:57,720
Speaker 9: bit behind the scenes. I'm not falling for that chemistry.

1294
01:00:57,760 --> 01:01:00,520
Speaker 9: I see, you know every Sunday or here on the radio.

1295
01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:04,560
Speaker 13: Now, Rick was great, and like I said, it was

1296
01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:06,520
Speaker 13: the hardest part was they had to shoot this thing

1297
01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:08,680
Speaker 13: from five different angles, and then we had to keep

1298
01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:11,240
Speaker 13: doing it over and over, and so I don't know

1299
01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:13,000
Speaker 13: how many times we went back and forth with him

1300
01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:15,640
Speaker 13: saying coke and me staying pop. But uh, you know,

1301
01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:17,560
Speaker 13: you would have had a good drinking game out of it.

1302
01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:20,200
Speaker 13: I know that if you were keeping score and trying

1303
01:01:20,200 --> 01:01:21,000
Speaker 13: to have a good time.

1304
01:01:21,040 --> 01:01:22,560
Speaker 11: But yeah, I see.

1305
01:01:22,600 --> 01:01:25,120
Speaker 13: We did that in like early August, like right around

1306
01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:27,320
Speaker 13: the start of training camp, so I had kind of

1307
01:01:27,360 --> 01:01:28,960
Speaker 13: forgotten about it a little bit, and then when it

1308
01:01:28,960 --> 01:01:31,320
Speaker 13: popped up, you know, this week, it was like, oh yeah,

1309
01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:33,439
Speaker 13: I mean, you know, you guys do this long enough.

1310
01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:36,120
Speaker 13: Like the days and the games and the weeks, they're

1311
01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:37,920
Speaker 13: just a blur. So it was it was fun to

1312
01:01:37,920 --> 01:01:40,360
Speaker 13: see that kind of come back to the forefront.

1313
01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:41,760
Speaker 6: I can't first thing I'm going to do when I
