1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,160 Speaker 1: Weekend is in fact upon us. And here's the thing. 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:08,559 Speaker 1: This is the good news, this is the exciting news. Again. 3 00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 1: I'm not pessimistic, Pete. I'm brightside baby, I'm the killers. 4 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 1: I'm mister bright'side because I'm looking at the bright side 5 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:21,960 Speaker 1: of everything. For example, this is realistically the last Friday 6 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 1: for like the next month and a half that anybody 7 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: is actually gonna expect you to be anywhere after this. 8 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 1: It's all just Katie bar the door. People forget what 9 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 1: day the week it is. It's the holidays. There's events, 10 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:35,040 Speaker 1: there's dinners, there's get togethers, there's people dropping in town. 11 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: But it's not to say that we don't come in 12 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: and execute and get through letting you know everything that's 13 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 1: taking place in the world of sport, because the sport 14 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: world is a huge part of the calendar of events 15 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 1: for the next week and a half or so. But 16 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 1: the point being, I hope all of you are getting 17 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: set for a couple of weeks of whatever it is 18 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 1: that you celebrate, but simply being around family, being around 19 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 1: good health and enjoyment. And there's plenty to talk about, 20 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,759 Speaker 1: both college basketball. The NFL thought a fabulous game last 21 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,280 Speaker 1: night as well, as the NBA. But before we do 22 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 1: all of that, before we do all of that, I 23 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: know that the Flintstones are not necessarily topical in twenty 24 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: twenty five, but they do have one hit that I 25 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 1: spend one time each year, and admittedly selfishly, it is 26 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 1: more significant, more important with each passing year that I'm 27 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 1: able to play it. Eddie, if you have the song 28 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: right now, go ahead. 29 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 2: Ohnversary, Yeah, Conversarynnversarvey on this the nineteenth of decembervers this, 30 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 2: of course when Fred was waking up Wilma. 31 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: I believe for their anniversary. I NOI do what the 32 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: date was, but it is not just the anniversary of 33 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: the birth of my buddy Matt Churchman, whose birthday is today, 34 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: but more importantly, Eddie, if you could please, and yes 35 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: selfishly but I asked the entire city to do so 36 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: with me, please wish the happiest of sixty first wedding 37 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 1: anniversaries to none other than Lloyd and Karen Querry. 38 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 3: Happy anniversary to mister and missus Quarry. 39 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: So my dad is as we you know, I think 40 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 1: people know. I try to be pretty transparent, not that 41 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: people care, but we sometimes thank. 42 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 3: You for the contribution of Jake into this. 43 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: World depending on the day. 44 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 4: You know. 45 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: My dad's gone through a health journey. He had a 46 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: stroke in July and is now recovering in a facility 47 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 1: that is fantastic up on the northwest side. Met somebody 48 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: yesterday listener to the show whose dad is there as well. 49 00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: So we are going to go over as a family 50 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: and celebrate for my parents' wedding anniversary after the show today, 51 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: but sixty one years together, and wanted to certainly wish 52 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,119 Speaker 1: them a happy anniversary. The NFL, obviously the Colts getting set. 53 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: It is weird because typically on a Friday we are 54 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: setting the stage for the weekend of games culminating with 55 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: the Colts on Sunday, and it is a Monday night 56 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: game obviously with San Francisco. I thought last night though, 57 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: a couple of things that took place last night. First, 58 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: I want to thank Night Owls and Zinc Distributing and 59 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: Mick Ultra. We had an awesome time last night for 60 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: our mini Hoops that we had had to be a 61 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: record number of participants partaking in our mini Hoops challenge. 62 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: We will do this again in January, but Mick Ultra 63 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: puts it on along with Zinc where your chance to 64 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: win that particular round. Last night was round two of 65 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: these that we will do and each time that we 66 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 1: go out, the high score then is entered into the 67 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: final with the grand champion of all of this, we'll 68 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: be going to Milwaukee with Hotel Voucher and on Mick 69 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: Ultra to go up and watch the Bucks take on 70 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: Miles Turner's old team, the Blue and Gold, up in Milwaukee. 71 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: And so last night was another round of that. In 72 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: night Owls. It was not only awesome just to be 73 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: out and meet different listeners of the show and be 74 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 1: down in Beach Grove and to see the fund that 75 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: people were having at just a neighborhood joint. You know 76 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 1: what I mean. I mean you saw they had what 77 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 1: had to have been a thousand dartboards in there, and 78 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: poker going on and the pacer game playing, and seeing 79 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: all of these people coming together and just enjoying an 80 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: evening with their coworkers, with their neighbors, with their friends. 81 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: Very cool. Would love to say hello to Randall who 82 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: came up to me. He and his brother. Regular listeners 83 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: to the show said they're driving trucks, and they're in 84 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: the truck and he said, man, we're locked in, and Randall, 85 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: I appreciated. It was great meeting last night. Same for 86 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: Jake Jacob, the Pride of Nebraska, a corn Husker fan 87 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: that is building elevators actually in Indianapolis and listens to 88 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 1: the station throughout the course of the day, and he 89 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: and I talked plenty of college football yesterday while watching 90 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: also the Pacer game and then into the NFL game. 91 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 1: And let's begin with the Pacers. Last night. It almost 92 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: feels like now we are entering into and maybe we've 93 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: already entered into the category of and I hate saying 94 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 1: it this way because I'm not trying to sell the 95 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:41,280 Speaker 1: Pacers short and the Colts. There's an interesting dynamic in 96 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: terms of the I think it's the newness factor. Let 97 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: me explain what I'm talking about. I'm pulling in last 98 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: night to night owls and my phone rings, and it's 99 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: a listener that wants to talk about the Colts and 100 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 1: break down and decipher and go over what the future 101 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: should be for Chris Ballard and Shane Steiken. If the 102 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: slide continues and the Colts find themselves on the outside 103 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:15,359 Speaker 1: looking in for the postseason and there's still still football 104 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: to be played with that, so we just don't know, 105 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: you know, when is the time to begin evaluating that. 106 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:26,919 Speaker 1: It is my belief that as of right now, Ballard 107 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,919 Speaker 1: and Steichen are safe, and I think they should be. 108 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 1: And that's not me carrying anybody's water. I've been pretty 109 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: critical of Chris Ballard at times and Shane Steiken. It's 110 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: not that I think Shane Steiken is Bill waltsh two 111 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 1: point zero. It's not that I think Shane Steiken is 112 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick two point zero. I think he's I think 113 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: he's a good coach, and I think he has learned. 114 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: I think he's a significantly better coach than he was 115 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: when he first got the job. So there are you 116 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: can see improvement, you can see steps along the way 117 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 1: of you know, the him growing into being, especially offensively, 118 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: a pretty good coach. Now with that, yes, there is 119 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: a slide and they are in real trouble here and 120 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: one would assume they may not make the playoffs. And 121 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: when you look at Chris Ballard's track record, then you 122 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: have a couple of ways to look at this, and 123 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: it compares a little bit to the Pacers. The Pacers 124 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 1: last night have a game that to a large extent 125 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: did what people want it to do. I know it 126 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: sounds crazy to say, I think there are Pacer fans 127 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: that are, like, you know what, at this point six 128 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: and twenty one, go in, be competitive, play hard, have 129 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: a fun game, be fun, and don't back your way 130 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: out of that lottery potential. And it's this accepted fate 131 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: and this new normal that the Pacers aren't going to 132 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: win games, and people seem to be okay with that 133 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: because of the fact of two things. Number One, you've 134 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: had plenty of time to absorb and process the disappointment 135 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: of the injury that is setting them back, and number two, 136 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: the injuries are what's setting them back. And so as 137 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: a result of that, it feels like there's this built 138 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: in excuse that softens the blow of what it is 139 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: that's happening. Because each and every time you see a 140 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: score or a disappointment or a loss, you say to yourself, yeah, 141 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: but I mean, they don't have Haliburton, they don't have Top, 142 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: and they don't have Nie Smith. Those guys are so 143 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: important to what they do, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. 144 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: The Colts have essentially the same excuse to go by man, 145 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 1: the Colts have lost, you know, five of six, and 146 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: they've lost four straight or whatever it is, and they 147 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: just keep snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Sure, 148 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: but you could say, yeah, but they don't have the 149 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: Forrest Buckner. They don't have Daniel Jones, pretty significant, right, 150 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,559 Speaker 1: They don't have Braden Smith, they don't have Sauce Gardner, 151 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 1: they haven't had Shaverarius Ward. The injuries are part of it. 152 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: Except for number one, we are still in the midst 153 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: of that. And so that reality that that cushion hasn't 154 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: necessarily completely set in just yet. That's number one and 155 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 1: number two in the NFL. There is the thought process 156 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: that injuries are such a part of that game and 157 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: such a part of that design that they have to 158 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: be prepared for that. But as I'm driving in and 159 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: I get a phone call from a listener, and I'm 160 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: pulling into night Owls, and they're asking me what's going 161 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 1: to happen with Chris Ballard and Shane Steiken, And I'm saying, 162 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: I don't think anything's going to happ and before I 163 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: can explain why, the caller, understandably so is like over 164 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 1: zealously like cutting me off. To state the case of 165 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 1: why they think Chris Ballard should be relieved of his 166 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: duties at the pace or if the Colts don't make 167 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: the playoffs, and he's comparing it with the Pacer situation. 168 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 1: And I said, this is what's interesting, though, because you 169 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 1: could make a very compelling case for Chris Ballard on 170 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 1: either side. If this was a high school debate class 171 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: and you were given the assignment to debate why Chris 172 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: Ballard should be terminated as the leader of the Colts 173 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 1: and it's time for a fresh change, a fresh mind, 174 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:49,200 Speaker 1: a fresh voice, then you would have plenty by which 175 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: to go by the number of seasons. The feeling of 176 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,559 Speaker 1: being stuck in the mud, the vat of suck, as 177 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: I call it, just being right there. It's like those 178 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 1: you remember those little finger games you would get there. 179 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: They were paper. Oh, they were called like finger handcuffs 180 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 1: when I was a kid. You put your your two 181 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 1: fingers in both sides of that that like slinky looking 182 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: piece of paper, and then it like locks them and 183 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: you can't you can't get them out. The Colts have 184 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 1: been stuck like in that middle area of that little 185 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: tube where you just you're stuck in the middle. You 186 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: can't get one way or the other. You're just stuck 187 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 1: in that back. That's the that's the problem in the 188 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 1: NFL with getting stuck in that drafting seventeenth all the time. 189 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: But when you look at the situation with Chris Ballard, 190 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 1: you could say, but when they were healthy, we were 191 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: all jumping up and down through eight weeks talking about 192 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: the way this roster had been built, the balance of it, 193 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: and how it might be as good a roster as 194 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: anybody in the NFL until the injuries, but every team 195 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 1: has injuries. But until the injuries, and so you could 196 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 1: look at it and you could make the case that 197 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 1: the Colts are stuck in the mud with no sign 198 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: of getting out of that because their quarterback situation is 199 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: fubar and their draft situation is less than desirable. However, 200 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:32,679 Speaker 1: their best course of action is to franchise tag Daniel Jones, 201 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:37,199 Speaker 1: bring him back, see what you have in terms of 202 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 1: the time that he comes back and the quality by 203 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: which he comes back, and roll with that. And there 204 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 1: is a very good chance that if everything goes as 205 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 1: planned with that, that you have indeed a really good 206 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: roster around him. And now you're right back to where 207 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: you were, and you pick up where you left off 208 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 1: when you were seven and one and you were optimistic, 209 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,160 Speaker 1: and the only thing hurting you is that you don't 210 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: have another first round weapon to add to the mix 211 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 1: because you traded those two because you got aggressive in 212 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: your plan. And yes, I am one person who you 213 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: will not find audio of me at that time saying 214 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 1: this is a huge move that puts the Colts over 215 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: the top. I thought it was too much to spend 216 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: for a corner as good as he is. But then 217 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 1: you look at the PACER's side of things, and when 218 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:29,680 Speaker 1: the Pacers got in this situation where they went from 219 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: literally the penthouse to the outhouse, there's this feeling and 220 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 1: this comfort level amongst the fan base here, that of 221 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: understanding and a patience with it. And why is that? 222 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: The reason why is because the precedent beforehand showed that 223 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: the PACER's front office had aggressive game planning and vision 224 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: that paid itself off, and so therefore they have earned 225 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: the benefit of the doubt that they will be able 226 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: to right the ship, and the Colts front office has 227 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: earned the skepticism of people that they can get out 228 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 1: of that middle ground. And that's the difference between the 229 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: way that we approach and envision the path for these 230 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: two franchises. And that's not to say that there's like 231 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: pitchforks going up and down Meritian Street about the Colts. 232 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: I just think that there is a much higher level 233 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: of just kind of an exasperated acceptance of reality with 234 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 1: the Colts. And part of that also is because we 235 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 1: are in the middle of it right now. And for 236 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: the Pacers, when the injury happened, you had like three 237 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: months to sit there and think about what it could 238 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: have should have, but then turn the page and say, Okay, 239 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: I just have to accept that this year is going 240 00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 1: to be different. Now, next year, next season, if things 241 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 1: don't go well for the Pacers, then there's going to 242 00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 1: be a lot of discussion and a lot of one 243 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: in the world. And was that a novel? It was 244 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: at Lightning in the Bottle, But last night in Pacers 245 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 1: and Knicks, Eddie Garrison was running the board for the 246 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 1: Pacers Radio network. Yes, the bottom line it was basically 247 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 1: Pacers Knicks of a year ago, with the exception of 248 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 1: the fact that this time the heroic point guard saving 249 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: came or guard play saving came from Jalen Brunson, who 250 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 1: is a fabulous player. It was not a bad performance 251 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: for the Pacers, but it was a bad final closing 252 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: of the Pacers. 253 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, it certainly was. I mean, they just struggled offensively 254 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 5: in that fourth quarter. Like it just seems, Jake, like 255 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 5: they have these different, you know, lapses in games offensively, 256 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 5: and it's almost like IU basketball during the Mike Whitson era. 257 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 5: You didn't exactly know when it was going to happen, 258 00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 5: but you know it's going to happen at some point 259 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 5: in the course of the game. And earlier in the 260 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 5: season it always felt like, you know, it was that 261 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 5: third quarter coming out of halftime. Then it kind of 262 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 5: moved to the second quarter, and now in like the 263 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 5: last week or so, the fourth quarter has been the 264 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 5: biggest bugaboo for the Pacers with closing out games. And 265 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 5: at this point, if it's got to be incredibly frustrating 266 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 5: if you're Rick Carlisle, because you're just trying to find 267 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 5: the right combination almost every single night to close out 268 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 5: a game, and you may think you have the right 269 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 5: combo for three quarters going into that final quarter. The 270 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 5: next thing you know, things just kind of taper off, 271 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 5: and you know, he's still looking for win number one 272 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 5: thousand is stuck on at nine hundred and ninety nine 273 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 5: now for three or or for four consecutive games. 274 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: I think they I do think. I don't know, but 275 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: I think they have a couple of things planned for 276 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: Rick Carlisle to help celebrate the one thousandth win. But 277 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 1: they've been waiting for a while, right, Well, I would 278 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 1: hope they would have something planned. They've been probably some 279 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 1: video tributes, I think, but they they've been waiting for 280 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: a while. 281 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:50,640 Speaker 3: You think they have a cake, a big one thousand cake. 282 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, you'd have to write. And if we're having cake 283 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 1: tonight from my parents' sixty first wedding anniversary orange fluff 284 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: from tailors up on the North Side, I would take 285 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: a thousand wins that trumps sixty one. Thousand wins trump 286 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: sixty one years. 287 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 6: Right. 288 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:04,120 Speaker 3: And here's the other thing. 289 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,439 Speaker 5: If there's a cake, does that mean they've had to 290 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 5: have a cake the last four games? 291 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 1: And if so, what have they done with each of 292 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: those cakes? 293 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:11,880 Speaker 3: Or the cake? 294 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: It's like the it's like the cake that Elaine ate 295 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 1: out of mister Peterman's refrigerator. Right, do you have any 296 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: idea what happens to the inter bowels of one when 297 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 1: they are eating a buttercrust that's been sitting there waiting 298 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 1: for that long. 299 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:27,880 Speaker 3: I don't get the reference. 300 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: Well, believe you me, I think you'll find out soon enough. 301 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 7: Dismissed. 302 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,959 Speaker 1: Fifteen percent of the audience gets the reference, but they 303 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 1: appreciate it. But yes, good point on Carlisle sitting on 304 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 1: nine ninety nine last night. Jalen Brunson is and it's 305 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: not just against the Pacers that he is that player, right, 306 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: he is. He is a bulldog type player. I thought 307 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: that got really good minutes. It goes without saying with 308 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: that kind of a scoring effort. And again I was 309 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 1: I was manning. I was manning and overseeing and helping 310 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: out with and registering or Archie what's that, Peyton Eli 311 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: or Archie Ooper Cooper, Yeah, the athletic one that Okell Short. 312 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: But I was manning the mini hoops tournament with Mick 313 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 1: Ultra and zinc Out at nightdou So. I was kind 314 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 1: of watching the game in the periphery of my eye, right, 315 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 1: and then had to go back and look over things. 316 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: And Andrew Demhard obviously had a big game. Quintin Jackson's 317 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,159 Speaker 1: a guy that we kind of forget about because he 318 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,680 Speaker 1: has not been as available, but when his number has 319 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 1: been called upon Eddie Pauler, he's given them good minutes. 320 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 7: Right. 321 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:35,400 Speaker 6: He's another one of. 322 00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 3: Those energizer bunnies. 323 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 1: You know. 324 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,119 Speaker 5: He brings a lot of energy with you know, the 325 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 5: speed that he plays with and picking up full core 326 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 5: in just the relentless defense and being able to help, 327 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 5: you know, the offense get out into the transition and 328 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 5: play that quick brand of basketball that we have seen 329 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 5: them play the last couple of years. 330 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 1: The other thing that goes on with the Pacers. I 331 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: saw multiple stories last night, and it is no surprise. 332 00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 1: It appears as though there are national outlets that have 333 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 1: been listening to this program because once again, nothing new here, 334 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 1: nothing original. Once again, multiple stories out there about the 335 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:25,439 Speaker 1: Pacers and trying to shop or being open to shop. 336 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:26,439 Speaker 1: Benedict Mathern. 337 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 3: I've also seen some Jeris Walker stuff as well. 338 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: I would think Walker as well, because those are two players. 339 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: But let's begin with Mathern. Okay, mathered is going to 340 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 1: be rumored and listed on the regular because of the 341 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 1: fact that they did not offer him an extension at 342 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: the beginning of the year, and we're potentially allowing him 343 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: to go into free agency at the completion of this. 344 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: And with Benedict Matherin, the thing about him that is 345 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 1: so intriguing, both for the Pacers and for other franchises, 346 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 1: Benedict Mathern is an isolation type scorer. Benedick Mathern, he's 347 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: an isolation guy in general. It's not a knock on him, 348 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 1: but he is. His personality is such that he's just 349 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:33,360 Speaker 1: more kind of independent. I think he's liked. I don't 350 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: think he's a bad I don't think he's a sour apple. 351 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:36,439 Speaker 1: I don't think he's a bad guy. I don't think 352 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 1: he's selfish. I'm not saying any of that. But his 353 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 1: mo is that he is a guy that is just 354 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 1: kind of like in the corner of the sandbox, and 355 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 1: offensively speaking, that's how he plays the Pacers offense when 356 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:58,679 Speaker 1: it is clicking and has all cylinders is one that 357 00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 1: obviously worked with all five cylinders clicking at the same 358 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 1: time and working in unison of one another, and Matherin 359 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 1: has been a huge asset in the offset of that, 360 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:18,679 Speaker 1: not within it per se, but if you look, for example, 361 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 1: when they were playing Oklahoma City. He won them a 362 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: game in the NBA Finals. He won them a game, 363 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: and I think it was Game three, if I'm not mistaken. 364 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 1: But he turned around then in game four and had 365 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: kind of that meltdown where he had two off ball 366 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,880 Speaker 1: fouls and missed the free throws and just was out 367 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 1: of sync and out of rhythm. But when Benedict Matherin 368 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 1: is thriving offensively, more often than not, it's because the 369 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: rest of the offense is not and he is picking 370 00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 1: up that slack. And he has that capability without question. However, 371 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 1: because he is entering into the final year, because he 372 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 1: is a volume rhythm scorer, in other words, he when 373 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 1: he does score, he has nights where he has nine 374 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 1: points or twenty nine. It feels like there's very few 375 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: in between. And I know somebody can look at it 376 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,439 Speaker 1: and go, do the averages eighteen or nineteen, that's right 377 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 1: in between. I get it, But you get what I'm saying. 378 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 1: I still believe I am one hundred percent convinced of this. 379 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: The Pacers know that they need two pieces. They need 380 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 1: two pieces for next year once Halliburton comes back, assuming 381 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: and hoping that Halliburton comes back close to the level 382 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: that he was, and you still have Siakam and you 383 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,919 Speaker 1: have Nie Smith, and you have Toppen and everyone's healthy 384 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 1: a year from now. In that situation, the Indiana Pacers 385 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:02,439 Speaker 1: need two pieces. They need the replacement for Miles Turner. 386 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:06,159 Speaker 1: And by that I mean an active, physical under the 387 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 1: basket big that can rim protect and then facilitate by 388 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: running the floor and either trail and hit a three 389 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 1: or then get on the inside on the block and 390 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:22,439 Speaker 1: facilitate things offensively. And that's a very smallest of players 391 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:26,880 Speaker 1: that can do that. But that and Jay Huff has 392 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:30,479 Speaker 1: shown the ability to do that in small increments, but 393 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: not with regularity at the start of games over the 394 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 1: course of a game the way Turner did. But that's 395 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: option number one of what you need. The other thing 396 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:45,439 Speaker 1: you need is a young wing defender like a Nie Smith, 397 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 1: but with a little more length and probably a little 398 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: bit more mid range type play, truth be told, like 399 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 1: a slightly more fleet Benanic Maatheren that can play at 400 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: the pace of fly. With what they need, I am 401 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:11,640 Speaker 1: convinced that the PACER's mindset is that Benedict Mathern, because 402 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 1: he does have value within the league, that Benedict Mathern 403 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 1: will be the trade piece that turns into and parlays 404 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: them for the Miles Turner replacement. Whether that be Kessler 405 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,159 Speaker 1: in Utah or somebody else, I don't know, but that's 406 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 1: where they're going to get that piece, or at least 407 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: try is using Matherin in that area. The second player 408 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 1: that I talked about, the wing defender. That player will 409 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: be attained for them or obtained for them via their 410 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: first round pick, which in a stroke of brilliance, they 411 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,479 Speaker 1: got back last year during the NBA Finals in a 412 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 1: trade that was very silent because you assumed it was 413 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,400 Speaker 1: going to be the twenty ninth overall pick. And now 414 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 1: that pick is probably going to be a lottery pick, 415 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: and quite frankly, could be a top five or six 416 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 1: pick in an extremely deep wing draft. And that player 417 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,199 Speaker 1: that you get a wing player, is not one that 418 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: you are looking at saying that has to be a 419 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: starter for us. No, that's going to be a twelve 420 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 1: to twenty minute complimentary piece that you grow with. And 421 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: then make that transition when you went from the Reggie 422 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 1: Davis's Rick Smith's teams into the Jermaine O'Neil, ron artest 423 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 1: Al Harrington teams. You had Harrington already drafted, you had 424 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: Jermaine that you traded for as a young player. But 425 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: those guys were there and they were slowly being brought 426 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 1: into the mix. Before then they became the faces of 427 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 1: the franchise and that's what their lottery pick is going 428 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 1: to be. So it just feels like there is more 429 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: definitive roadmap for the Pacers than the Colts. Part of that, too, 430 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 1: is it's a lot easier to manage it when you 431 00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: when you had eight or nine guys as opposed to 432 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: fifty plot I get it, and your most important piece 433 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 1: from the standpoint of the Colts is coming off the 434 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: same injury of the most important piece of the Pacers. 435 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 1: The difference being the one that's with the Pacers is 436 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: already locked in under contract. There's a lot to get to. 437 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 1: One thing happened last night that I thought to myself, 438 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 1: right there, this is the best of the best, as 439 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 1: good as it gets. And it happened last night. It 440 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:34,360 Speaker 1: happened late, but I want to go over it because 441 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 1: it was one of those things that you just kind 442 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 1: of felt like everybody else was right there with you. 443 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 1: I'll explain what I'm talking about and big show lined 444 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 1: up today, Zach Osterman. Osterman going to join us. Coming 445 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 1: up one o'clock.

Rob Blackman going to join us, the voice 448 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,160 Speaker 1: of the Purdue boiler Makers coming up at one thirty 449 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 1: Perdue and Auburn getting set to battle tomorrow. That's going 450 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: to be a six thirty tip. Kevin Bowen at two 451 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 1: o'clock today, Good for the heart, Feel good Friday. Coming 452 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: up at the bottom of the two o'clock hour. A 453 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: lot to get to, a lot to unpack when we 454 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: come back. Something had happened last night where you just 455 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: felt like this sense of community. And I'm not talking 456 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,159 Speaker 1: about the darts and the mini hoop at night owls, 457 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: but rather just simply watching something that was pretty awesome. 458 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: We'll talk about it next. One of the things that's 459 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: fun about sport, and in particular this time of year, 460 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: because I've always appreciated that you and I know that, 461 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 1: and I hope this is true for everybody. You know. 462 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 1: We all have our different family traditions, we all have 463 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 1: different things that we do to enjoy the holidays and 464 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: enjoy family time, whether it be Thanksgiving or Christmas, or 465 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: Hanukah or Kwanza, whatever it is that you might celebrate. 466 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, this time of year is there 467 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 1: are so many the confluence of so many different traditions, 468 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: and one of the things that makes those things special 469 00:27:56,840 --> 00:28:02,439 Speaker 1: is you know that other homes, other houses, other people 470 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: are doing the same with their people, and you certainly 471 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,679 Speaker 1: hope that all people are able to enjoy that. And 472 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: every once in a while, especially on a gloomy, kind 473 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: of snowy, you know, wintery Thursday night, something takes place 474 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 1: where you feel like you are you can just get 475 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: the feeling that you're part of this big gathering. You know, 476 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 1: the Daytona five hundred, when NASCAR and the Daytona five 477 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: hundred really took off, or took off as maybe even 478 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 1: the wrong word, but first got introduced to the mainstream 479 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 1: was in the I think it was seventy eight when 480 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 1: you had the big fight at the Daytona five hundred, 481 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 1: And it just so happened that there was an ice 482 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: storm and a blizzard throughout the vast majority of the Northeast, 483 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: and so all of these people that normally never watched NASCAR, 484 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 1: everyone was sitting on their couch watching TV because there 485 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 1: was nowhere to go. And you know, back then you 486 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: had like four channels, but everybody was watching the same thing. 487 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: And social media has a big part of this too, 488 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 1: when you're something's going on and so therefore you're locked 489 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 1: into you know, whatever social media channel that you use, 490 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: and you can tell that everybody's commenting on the same thing. 491 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: And that was the case last night with what I 492 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 1: think was the best game of the season in the 493 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: National Football League, and it boded well, or bodes well 494 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: truthfully for the Colts because as I was watching that 495 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 1: game last night, and I got the impression that I 496 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: haven't seen the television numbers, and I know it's on 497 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 1: Prime and not on you know, so they're going to 498 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:54,040 Speaker 1: be lower because fewer people have the streaming service even 499 00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five than they do if it was 500 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: on just regular ESPN or whatever else. But that's got 501 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,480 Speaker 1: to be one of the highest drawn, especially late in 502 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 1: the game. Tune in numbers for Amazon Prime so far 503 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: since they began doing the games. But as I'm sitting 504 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 1: there watching it, I'm thinking to myself, Okay, one of 505 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: these teams, I believe is probably the favorite and the 506 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: best team in the NFL. Now, Eddie, who would you 507 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 1: say right now is the best team in the National 508 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: Football League if you had to pick one. 509 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 5: Either one of those teams that we saw last night, 510 00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 5: probably right, Yeah. 511 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 1: And and Matt Stafford and you know, with what he's 512 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 1: got going with certainly just the receiving game in general, 513 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 1: and with Puka Nakua and the way that I mean 514 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 1: just their timing and Nikoua last night was incredible, right, 515 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 1: And I know he's had a rough week, but he 516 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: was incredible on the field. And Stafford just has this 517 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: locked in. This dude is totally in control feel about 518 00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 1: him that is very hard to dismiss. 519 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 5: It's like whenever you watch Josh Allen or Patrick Mahomes 520 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 5: or Joe Burrow get into these like these zone zones 521 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 5: the quote unquote flow state, as Aarony Smith coined it, now, they're. 522 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 3: Just impossible to stop. 523 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: I totally agree. 524 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 3: And he's been like that pretty much all season. 525 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 1: And so when you assess the RAMS, what you have 526 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 1: to then keep in mind is and yes, what it 527 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: could have should have and if if some butts were 528 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 1: candy and nuts, will all have a merry Christmas. I 529 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 1: get it. However, that's a team in the Rams that 530 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 1: the Colts should have beaten different time of year. I 531 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: get it right, and Seattle, you can't even necessarily weigh 532 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 1: it in. And I don't even know offensively that Seattle 533 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: was doing, you know, showing their full game plan against 534 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: the Colts. You know, I don't know, because it wasn't 535 00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 1: to the level of last night. But what Seattle does 536 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 1: do is show kind of a blueprint for what the 537 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 1: Colts ultimately can hope for with a healthy Daniel Jones. 538 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 1: And that being Sam Donald, last night, I thought showed 539 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 1: something and I do think that what we there are 540 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:27,120 Speaker 1: always quarterbacks that they have a game or a moment 541 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 1: and you get bought in and you get fooled by it. 542 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 1: The New Orleans Saints got fooled by Aaron Brooks. He 543 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 1: caught lighting in a bottle for three games and like boom, 544 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 1: let's give you a ton of money. The Buffalo Bills 545 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 1: got fooled by Rob Johnson. The Detroit Lions got fooled 546 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 1: by Scott Mitchell. The Miami Dolphins probably got fooled by Tua. Right. 547 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: I mean, it's all over the place. And Sam Donald 548 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:01,239 Speaker 1: has had his moments where he's kind of fooled you 549 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 1: and then also you're like, no, we know who you 550 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:11,959 Speaker 1: are now. But I thought last night, in key moments repeatedly, 551 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 1: and he did have some costly turnovers, but when they 552 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: needed it most, not once, but twice, Donald was exceptional 553 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 1: and he was locked in as well, and as good 554 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 1: as Stafford was, Darnald was as well. And I think 555 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: that's good news for the Colts. Again, I'm going by 556 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:33,720 Speaker 1: assuming Daniel Jones comes back from the injury and is healthy. Okay, 557 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 1: But if Daniel Jones comes back from the injury and 558 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 1: is healthy, then I think that's a blueprint that you 559 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 1: can look at because Darnald is a guy that had 560 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: his question marks, had his inconsistencies, but showed enough flash 561 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: at different stops along the way that you felt like, 562 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 1: if he had a good roster around him, had some 563 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: weapons that he now has the maturity and the moxie 564 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:03,600 Speaker 1: to put the ghosts of Christmas past behind him and 565 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 1: play forward. And I thought last night he showed that, 566 00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 1: and that's good news for the cults because that's the 567 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 1: blueprint of what you want out of a Daniel Jones. Now, 568 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 1: did you get a chance to watch much of that 569 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:17,760 Speaker 1: game any or were you still doing the Pacers postgame stuff. 570 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 5: Once the Pacers game ended, I flipped it over to 571 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 5: that game, so I was able to watch most of 572 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 5: the second half. 573 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 1: I mean it was there were I have no real room. 574 00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: I shouldn't say that. I've always kind of liked the Seahawks. 575 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 1: I think I've let that be known. 576 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 5: And we were, by the way, what'd you think of 577 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 5: the Seahawks uniforms? I thought those are right there with 578 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 5: the ones that you love the most. 579 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 3: No what, no, no, no, you're a lunatic. 580 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 1: No, I get it. Okay, they were a little too Okay. 581 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 1: First off, let me back up here. Okay, I'm not 582 00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:57,799 Speaker 1: a fan of green. 583 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 3: Color. 584 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: Hold on. I like the lime green, the high lighter 585 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 1: lime green they use as an accentuation to the royal 586 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,840 Speaker 1: blue and silver that are their two primaries. I like 587 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 1: it there. I don't like the dark green, the almost 588 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:23,280 Speaker 1: forest green, as the primary as it changes under the lights. 589 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 1: To quote Hall notes, no can do not terrible, but 590 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 1: trying a little too hard. They're like the zubab pants 591 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:40,839 Speaker 1: of uniforms. But last Saturday, Shannon and I go out 592 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 1: to dinner and I see this couple walk in and 593 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 1: the dudes wearing a Seattle Seahawks, the old school Seahawks logo, 594 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 1: the old school Seahawks. He's wearing the snow hat and 595 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:55,800 Speaker 1: I actually have one of these with the Seahawks on it, 596 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 1: and I'm like, holy cow. So I say to him, Hey, 597 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 1: I got to tell you I have actually that exact 598 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 1: same hatiteur it once a year. I'm a tradition laden guy, right, 599 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:07,319 Speaker 1: I'm regimented. And so we start talking and I said, so, 600 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 1: this guy is from Seattle now lives in Champagne and 601 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 1: he and his wife come to Indianapolis each year in 602 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,760 Speaker 1: the Christmas time to Christmas shop and go to dinner 603 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 1: and whatever else, just a weekend getaway. And I said, 604 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, we're getting ready to do the exact 605 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: same thing tomorrow to Milwaukee. Right. So he and I 606 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 1: started talking about just the NFL in general exchange numbers. 607 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:29,640 Speaker 1: And I was texting with him last night during the 608 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 1: game about the Seahawks and the Rams game because that 609 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:36,799 Speaker 1: felt like the two upper echelon teams and it was 610 00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 1: and I could see it because he's a huge Seahawks fan. 611 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 1: Eddie the roller coaster of emotion in that game, it 612 00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 1: was just back and forth and then you had the 613 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 1: crazy two point conversion. You saw that, right, Yes, very 614 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,480 Speaker 1: interesting on how that played out. So the two point 615 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 1: conversion for those that did not see it, it was 616 00:36:55,280 --> 00:37:01,160 Speaker 1: a what looked to be basically a dead play because 617 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 1: Darnold throws what looks to be an incomplete pass, but 618 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,359 Speaker 1: it was a backward pass, which means it's a live 619 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 1: ball and it gets kicked around and then Seattle just 620 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 1: kind of without thinking about it, picks it up and 621 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 1: it's like, oh, wait a minute, that's now good because 622 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 1: you're in the end zone, and boom, two point conversion. 623 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: And that turned out to be a difference of the game. 624 00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 1: But it was a game of great ebanflow. It was 625 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 1: an unbelievable game, but it was the best game, and 626 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,839 Speaker 1: I believe it was the best game of the year 627 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:35,319 Speaker 1: in the National Football League. And on a weekend where 628 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: we have other sports going on, but most of it 629 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:43,200 Speaker 1: is Saturday loaded. For example, college basketball Indiana playing on Saturday, 630 00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 1: Butler college basketball playing on Saturday, Perdue playing on Saturday, 631 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:51,920 Speaker 1: Pacers playing Saturday and Monday. So you have all these 632 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:53,880 Speaker 1: NFL games on a Sunday. The Colt's playing on a 633 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 1: Monday night. And guess what this weekend is. It's a 634 00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:00,400 Speaker 1: theme weekend at Querying Company. It's a theme we for 635 00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: the NFL and music to go with it.

Okay, So somewhere there is a group 638 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:17,560 Speaker 1: of guys that are breaking rocks in the hot sun. 639 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,359 Speaker 1: Right they're in the I don't know if it's hot 640 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,440 Speaker 1: sun right now in Pocatello, but they're in the Pocatella 641 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,439 Speaker 1: Penitentiary and they've been breaking rocks in the hot sun 642 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 1: because they fought the law on the law one. And 643 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:30,800 Speaker 1: now they're sitting there and the warden comes and says, 644 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 1: I got good news for you. I got good news 645 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:37,280 Speaker 1: for you, fellas. You've been breaking rocks in the hot sun, 646 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:41,799 Speaker 1: and therefore we're going to reward you. No, no, no, 647 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: no no. We're not gonna give you a bottle of 648 00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 1: SuDS like we once did for those that got to 649 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:51,239 Speaker 1: retar the top of the plating factory. No, we're gonna 650 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 1: let you watch an NFL game this Sunday. Now, we 651 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 1: do this a lot eddie where you say, okay, so 652 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:05,440 Speaker 1: if you were the one television inside of the penitentiary 653 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:07,799 Speaker 1: where everybody's allowed to watch a game, like you had 654 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:11,240 Speaker 1: as the community television in your dorm room floor in college. 655 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 1: What's the game that they would say? Yeah, I mean, technically, 656 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 1: we're letting these guys watch the NFL, but we're gonna 657 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 1: give them the worst possible game because we can't be 658 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:24,399 Speaker 1: too kind. Okay. Now, it is my belief. And this 659 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 1: happens a lot this time of year because you start 660 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 1: getting into and this is why fantasy football this time 661 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 1: of year becomes so challenging. Guys are getting benched, guys arrested, 662 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:37,600 Speaker 1: et cetera. I think last night we might have seen 663 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 1: the only maybe they're too the only non poke tele 664 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,399 Speaker 1: penitentiary games on the schedule.

I mean, 688 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:54,359 Speaker 1: that's a Pokatella game, is it not? Maybe? I don't know. 689 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 5: But Buffalo with Buffalo, I don't know if it's a 690 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:57,319 Speaker 5: Pokotella game. 691 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: The Chargers at Dallas not a Polkatele game.

That's actually sneaky 709 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:15,799 Speaker 1: decent because there are some implications in that game. Right 710 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 1: we First, here's a sneaky good game. Jacksonville at Denver, YEP. 711 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 1: That's got implication possibly for the Colts as well. If 712 00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:27,760 Speaker 1: Jacksonville wins that game, Katie bar the door for the Colts. 713 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 1: They're in some trouble there, they already are. But you 714 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:34,840 Speaker 1: get what I'm saying. Okay, Atlanta at Arizona. Another candidate 715 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,480 Speaker 1: who's quarterbacking for either one of those teams. 716 00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 3: You got Jacoby Brissett and Kirk Cousins. 717 00:42:40,080 --> 00:42:43,879 Speaker 1: Man and Cousins actually has played halfway decent. Pittsburgh got 718 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:51,520 Speaker 1: Detroit not terrible, right, I guess Pittsburgh mathematically to Okay, 719 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:57,360 Speaker 1: how about this one, the Raiders at Houston. You're not 720 00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:00,920 Speaker 1: dinging any of these as potential Pocatella pen intentional games? Yeah, 721 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 1: I mean that's the potentially Yeah yeah, Okay, New England 722 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 1: and Baltimore's decent. Yep. And then truthfully, San Francisco and Indianapolis. 723 00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:13,880 Speaker 1: Is anybody outside of San Francisco or Indianapolis excited about that? 724 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:17,000 Speaker 1: For that matter? Is anybody in Indianapolis or San Francisco 725 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:17,799 Speaker 1: excited about that? 726 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:21,399 Speaker 3: Hey, you saw the numbers last week for the Rivers game. 727 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:24,200 Speaker 1: People were fascinated to see what Philip Rivers could do, Right. 728 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 5: Jake, I think the clear and obvious answer here is 729 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 5: the Jets and the Saints. 730 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:29,839 Speaker 1: So when the okay, it used to be that they 731 00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:32,600 Speaker 1: would play when the Saints come marching in, when New 732 00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 1: Orleans would take to the field, But when they're playing 733 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:38,319 Speaker 1: at formerly the Mercedes Benz Louisiana Superdome, I don't know 734 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:41,880 Speaker 1: who it's sponsored by now against the New York Jets, 735 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:43,680 Speaker 1: and we're not even sure who's quarterback in the Jets. 736 00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:45,360 Speaker 1: The music that will play when they come out on 737 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 1: the field will be this, Eddie, you're still there? 738 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 3: No, I'm not here. 739 00:43:55,280 --> 00:44:00,359 Speaker 1: There we go, There we go.

I didn't make 803 00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:14,239 Speaker 10: the trip last year in Indiana played UCLA. 804 00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:17,839 Speaker 1: Okay, because the one thing that it is a I 805 00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:20,440 Speaker 1: went this year for the first time. I mean, I've 806 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,480 Speaker 1: been outside the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, but going in 807 00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:27,040 Speaker 1: as a spectator at an event there. The one thing 808 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:29,919 Speaker 1: that I will tell Indiana fans if you have a chance, 809 00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:32,760 Speaker 1: and by now you probably wouldn't, but if you're buying 810 00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:35,800 Speaker 1: on the secondary market, try to buy tickets as close 811 00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:39,960 Speaker 1: to the end of the aisle as possible because the 812 00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:44,040 Speaker 1: sections are literally like fifty five rows or seats across, 813 00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:47,480 Speaker 1: and if you're sitting in say twenty seven and twenty eight, 814 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:51,759 Speaker 1: it is like an airplane. It is the tightest the 815 00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 1: outside of the parking lot that we have here. It's 816 00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:56,400 Speaker 1: the tightest stadium I've ever seen, in the fact that 817 00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,279 Speaker 1: it's you know, ninety thousand seats or whatever it may be, 818 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:01,719 Speaker 1: and it should be like sixty five thousand, you know 819 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:05,160 Speaker 1: what I mean, but a fabulous venue in Indiana get 820 00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:08,120 Speaker 1: to be Their question would be this the better matchup 821 00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:11,480 Speaker 1: for Indiana, Alabama or Oklahoma? 822 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:16,279 Speaker 10: You know, I've obviously discussed this with people for I 823 00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:18,759 Speaker 10: guess a couple of weeks now, and I think it 824 00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:21,879 Speaker 10: is a difficult question to answer. And the reason why 825 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:26,239 Speaker 10: is because I think a lot of people would lean 826 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:30,440 Speaker 10: Oklahoma because Oklahoma has struggled so consistently to move and 827 00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:34,560 Speaker 10: score the ball this season, and you know, frankly, even 828 00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,000 Speaker 10: if you look at, you know, some of the games 829 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,359 Speaker 10: Oklahoma played against teams that were not very good, they 830 00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 10: still had some offensive issues. I think the flip side 831 00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:45,759 Speaker 10: is if you're sort of saying, does either of these 832 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 10: teams have something about their profile that they do so 833 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:51,440 Speaker 10: exceptionally well that that could win them a game, that 834 00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:54,840 Speaker 10: could win them a playoff game just by itself. It 835 00:48:54,920 --> 00:49:01,879 Speaker 10: is Oklahoma defense, and so I think you'd probably Oklahoma, 836 00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:07,560 Speaker 10: you know, maybe allowing for the possibility of Pi Simpson 837 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 10: really being hurt and you know, you're wanting to see 838 00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:13,880 Speaker 10: a more limited quarterback if you see Alabama, I think 839 00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:16,280 Speaker 10: you probably lean Oklahoma. But I think that the danger 840 00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:19,359 Speaker 10: there is if there's kind of one one of these 841 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:23,719 Speaker 10: two teams that has a unit, has a feature of 842 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:28,080 Speaker 10: itself that can win a game like this just by itself. 843 00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:31,640 Speaker 10: Oklahoma's defense can do that at a level that I'm 844 00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:32,719 Speaker 10: not sure Alabama can. 845 00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:33,799 Speaker 6: On either side of the ball. 846 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:38,000 Speaker 1: The Indiana Stories Act, there's nothing literally you and I 847 00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 1: could do, Like our sister station just did a fabulous 848 00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:44,720 Speaker 1: job as they do every year with the WIBC Salvation 849 00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:47,000 Speaker 1: Army radiothon right so they're on the radio and just 850 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:50,279 Speaker 1: NonStop for you know, hours upon hours upon hours. And 851 00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:53,000 Speaker 1: you and I could do a radiothon right now and 852 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:56,160 Speaker 1: talk to We're blue in the face, and yet we 853 00:49:56,280 --> 00:50:01,160 Speaker 1: still would not be able to properly illustrate how dumb 854 00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 1: it would be to rule out anything about Indiana at 855 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,239 Speaker 1: this point, you know what I mean, we've kind of 856 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:11,640 Speaker 1: seen that they have now answered every single challenge, But 857 00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 1: yet do you still think that people see them despite 858 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:19,880 Speaker 1: being the number one seed? Are they the favorite in 859 00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:20,640 Speaker 1: this playoff? 860 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:24,759 Speaker 10: I don't think they're the favorite, and I'm not sure 861 00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:27,840 Speaker 10: I would make them the favorite. That's not because they're Indiana, 862 00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:32,320 Speaker 10: that's just because I think on balance, you can still 863 00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:37,239 Speaker 10: make me a compelling argument that Ohio State and maybe 864 00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:41,840 Speaker 10: Georgia would be slight a favorite ahead of them. And 865 00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:45,240 Speaker 10: I haven't looked at it, like the National Championship odds. 866 00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 10: I don't know where everybody stacks up. I just think 867 00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:52,680 Speaker 10: like as good as Indiana is, you have to acknowledge 868 00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:54,279 Speaker 10: that if we're talking about who is the favorite to 869 00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:57,640 Speaker 10: win the literal national Championship, that's as narrow as the 870 00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:03,680 Speaker 10: margins gets. And I would argue that Indians maybe in 871 00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:08,080 Speaker 10: the top three. Like I was texting with a medium 872 00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:12,000 Speaker 10: a fellow member of the sort of college media apparatus 873 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:13,839 Speaker 10: in the third quarter of the Big Ten Championship game, 874 00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:17,000 Speaker 10: and I said, give me these two teams in Georgia 875 00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:21,080 Speaker 10: against the field. I think one of those three teams 876 00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:23,640 Speaker 10: wins the national title. I'm sure I'll be wrong, because 877 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:28,040 Speaker 10: I always damn, but I just think like Indiana is in 878 00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:31,279 Speaker 10: that rare air. They are one of the teams that 879 00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:34,000 Speaker 10: has the inside lane, both because of their seeding and 880 00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 10: also because of what they've proven about themselves. I think 881 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:39,800 Speaker 10: it's worth pointing out nobody else has the wins Indiana. 882 00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:43,480 Speaker 10: Does you know that's that's kind of one of the 883 00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:45,960 Speaker 10: big I'm sorry, they have. 884 00:51:46,040 --> 00:51:47,960 Speaker 1: The two best wins in college football. 885 00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:50,360 Speaker 10: They do. And even if you want to kind of 886 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:54,160 Speaker 10: go a layer below that, a win at Iowa, a 887 00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 10: win at Penn State, the way they beat Illinois. I mean, 888 00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:01,360 Speaker 10: you know, even the non conference schedule that that was 889 00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 10: such a such a controversial sort of talking point in 890 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:10,759 Speaker 10: the in the in the preseason. Well, now two of 891 00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:13,120 Speaker 10: those teams one ten games. One of them won their conference, 892 00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:18,080 Speaker 10: so you know it, nobody's got the sort of what 893 00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:23,680 Speaker 10: have you done on the field resume that Indiana Indiana's got. Now, 894 00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:25,919 Speaker 10: I think there are some injury concerns that that may 895 00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:28,600 Speaker 10: come to bear on Indiana here in the playoffs. I 896 00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:31,560 Speaker 10: also just think, like I said, we're talking about the 897 00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:35,719 Speaker 10: narrowest imaginable margin. We're not talking about in Indiana gets 898 00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:39,040 Speaker 10: the six wins or seven wins or in Indiana you 899 00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:42,480 Speaker 10: know beat You know these games we used to talk 900 00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:44,040 Speaker 10: about where we'd say, you know, the winner of this 901 00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:46,239 Speaker 10: game has a good shot at a bowl game and 902 00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:48,319 Speaker 10: the loser is really going to struggle to find a path. 903 00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:50,800 Speaker 10: Now we're talking about being the best team in the country. 904 00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,200 Speaker 10: And and if you're asking me who I think has 905 00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:56,560 Speaker 10: the best chance to win a national title, I think 906 00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:59,840 Speaker 10: Indiana is comfortably in the lead pack. I'd probably have 907 00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:03,879 Speaker 10: they ever so slightly ahead of them. And then again, 908 00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:07,080 Speaker 10: I actually think Kirby has kind of brought Georgia to 909 00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 10: the boil at just the right time this season to 910 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:11,520 Speaker 10: put them in that conversation as well. 911 00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:14,000 Speaker 1: Zach Osterman is my guest Indianapoli star. He's on the 912 00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:17,399 Speaker 1: JAVA house peel and poor guest line, Zach. You look 913 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:20,520 Speaker 1: at the injury for example, to Stephen Day, who you 914 00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:24,440 Speaker 1: know as a defensive lineman was a critical tackle for 915 00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 1: lost guy for Indiana, and you know, now we know 916 00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 1: is not going to be available in the College football playoff. 917 00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:32,680 Speaker 1: But let me ask this and see how I can 918 00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:38,160 Speaker 1: word this. Does Indiana have more margin for error when 919 00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:42,000 Speaker 1: it comes to injury based on the fact that it 920 00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:46,040 Speaker 1: is not a roster that is built with huge disparity 921 00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:49,160 Speaker 1: between their starters and a bunch of five stars, and 922 00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:52,640 Speaker 1: then there are reserves, a bunch of younger players or 923 00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:56,239 Speaker 1: three stars, et cetera. There is less drop off per 924 00:53:56,400 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 1: unit with Indiana. And while they are very good play, 925 00:54:01,080 --> 00:54:04,520 Speaker 1: what Indiana's formula for success is is as much about 926 00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:10,560 Speaker 1: preparation and execution of what their coach wants versus actual 927 00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:14,880 Speaker 1: jump out talent across the board, and that allows for 928 00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:20,080 Speaker 1: greater transfer of execution from one player to the next. 929 00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:22,440 Speaker 1: Overstating it or some truth to that. 930 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:26,120 Speaker 10: So I think that's probably fair, at least to a point. 931 00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:29,960 Speaker 10: You know, I do think like, however, they solve the 932 00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:34,560 Speaker 10: Steven Daily you know sort of problem here, whether it 933 00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:36,400 Speaker 10: is just going to the next man up, which is 934 00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:41,640 Speaker 10: probably Daniel and Dukeway, who's a sophomore a little bit undersized. 935 00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 10: He came over. He was one of the players that 936 00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:46,960 Speaker 10: was committed to James Madison out of high school and 937 00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:50,360 Speaker 10: flipped his commitment to Indiana when Kurt Signetti and his 938 00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:54,240 Speaker 10: staff came over in the Winner of twenty three, whether 939 00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:58,319 Speaker 10: it's kicking somebody like Mario Landino, who's played tackle for 940 00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:01,200 Speaker 10: basically all of this season but did play a fair 941 00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:05,600 Speaker 10: bit of end last season out to the edge, whether 942 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:08,279 Speaker 10: it is maybe running some more odd fronts in the end, 943 00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:11,040 Speaker 10: it's been a pretty consistent four down front this season, 944 00:55:11,120 --> 00:55:13,520 Speaker 10: but we saw them run quite a bit of odds 945 00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:16,120 Speaker 10: front last season, you know, between sort of that two 946 00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:18,640 Speaker 10: man game between Mikal Kamara and CJ. West, with James 947 00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:21,520 Speaker 10: Carpenter on the other side, or sometimes Lenel Carr on 948 00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:26,120 Speaker 10: the other side. I do think at a certain point, 949 00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:30,319 Speaker 10: whatever the solution is there, you're giving up something you 950 00:55:30,360 --> 00:55:34,760 Speaker 10: can't get back, whether it's experience in you know, let's 951 00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:38,680 Speaker 10: not forget just Steven Day, but also Kellen Wyatt, the 952 00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:41,800 Speaker 10: Maryland transfer who had looked so promising and was actually 953 00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:44,839 Speaker 10: the player whose injury kind of gave Daily a chance 954 00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:46,960 Speaker 10: to come to the four a little bit more as 955 00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:50,160 Speaker 10: the season went on. Whether it's the fact that you 956 00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:53,040 Speaker 10: are having to maybe change the complexion of your defense 957 00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:55,319 Speaker 10: a little bit this time of year. That could be 958 00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:58,040 Speaker 10: in moving a player like Landino who's been so productive 959 00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:00,560 Speaker 10: at tackle. It could be in changing what you're trying 960 00:56:00,600 --> 00:56:02,839 Speaker 10: to do sort of schematically and play maybe a little 961 00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:03,360 Speaker 10: bit more. 962 00:56:03,160 --> 00:56:04,080 Speaker 3: Three three to five. 963 00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:08,160 Speaker 10: I do think at a certain point, you, like I said, 964 00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:10,359 Speaker 10: before you start to lose something you can't get back. 965 00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:13,560 Speaker 10: But I think to your point, the question is what 966 00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:17,560 Speaker 10: is the margin on that sort of loss versus return. 967 00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:21,640 Speaker 10: And as long as particularly what I would say is 968 00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 10: as long as Indiana's got it's tackle rotations is why 969 00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:27,839 Speaker 10: why I don't think Landino maybe moves. As long as 970 00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:31,480 Speaker 10: Indiana's got its tackle rotation tight and Indiana's got those 971 00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:34,880 Speaker 10: three linebackers healthy, I think that's the heart of this 972 00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:38,280 Speaker 10: defense because that is where it is just so hard 973 00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:41,799 Speaker 10: to win at the point of attack against Indiana. That 974 00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:44,640 Speaker 10: the ends the edges have been really good this season. 975 00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:47,600 Speaker 10: Why it was really good before you got hurt. Daily 976 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:49,839 Speaker 10: really came to the four after why I got hurt 977 00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:54,240 Speaker 10: Michael Kamaras saddled some injuries. He's also probably just suffered 978 00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:56,800 Speaker 10: from maybe getting a little bit more attention this season, 979 00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:59,879 Speaker 10: which has probably opened the door for someone like why 980 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:02,279 Speaker 10: their daily to be a little bit more productive. But 981 00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 10: the constant has been you know, in soccer, we use 982 00:57:06,080 --> 00:57:09,240 Speaker 10: the term called the spine of a team, the players, 983 00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:12,160 Speaker 10: the quality of the players that run straight through your team, 984 00:57:12,239 --> 00:57:15,160 Speaker 10: from your forward to your midfield, to your center backs 985 00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:18,680 Speaker 10: to your goalkeeper. The spine of that defense has been 986 00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:22,360 Speaker 10: the strength of its defensive tackle play. Tyrie Tucker has 987 00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:23,960 Speaker 10: been the first team All Big Ten player, He's been 988 00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:26,840 Speaker 10: an All American. I think Mario Landino probably got the 989 00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:28,600 Speaker 10: harsh end of some of that decision, some of those 990 00:57:28,600 --> 00:57:31,280 Speaker 10: decisions because he was just as good. And then those 991 00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:34,200 Speaker 10: three linebackers and how good they've been, how versatile and 992 00:57:34,280 --> 00:57:36,280 Speaker 10: multiple they are. As long as Indiana has got that, 993 00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:39,840 Speaker 10: I think they'll be okay. And I don't think that 994 00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:44,200 Speaker 10: your assessment is completely unfair. That there is an extent 995 00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:47,479 Speaker 10: to which the secret sauce in all this is Brian 996 00:57:47,560 --> 00:57:50,840 Speaker 10: Haynes and his ability, especially given some time. And I 997 00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:53,920 Speaker 10: think that's important here because he's had time to figure 998 00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:56,000 Speaker 10: out he's had the best part of a month, or 999 00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:57,560 Speaker 10: he will have had the best part of a month 1000 00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:01,080 Speaker 10: to figure out here's how we're going to solved this problem. 1001 00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:04,080 Speaker 10: This wasn't you know, a fix that was concocted on 1002 00:58:04,160 --> 00:58:08,600 Speaker 10: five today's turnaround between games, he's had time to sort 1003 00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:11,520 Speaker 10: of go back to the drawing board, rethink it, rescheme it, 1004 00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:14,880 Speaker 10: and then a bunch of time in practice. Whatever the 1005 00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:18,880 Speaker 10: solution is, to drill it and repeat it and refine it. 1006 00:58:19,680 --> 00:58:22,360 Speaker 10: I think that it is probably I think your your 1007 00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:23,840 Speaker 10: assessment is probably fair. 1008 00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:24,200 Speaker 7: There. 1009 00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:29,400 Speaker 1: I'm curious of this, Zach. You know, I went to Indiana. 1010 00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:33,040 Speaker 1: I grew up in Indiana. My friends, the vast majority 1011 00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:35,400 Speaker 1: of them are I mean, I obviously pretty friends. My 1012 00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:39,920 Speaker 1: cousin's a huge Purdue booster, you know, et cetera. But 1013 00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:45,400 Speaker 1: from an Indiana standpoint, the football and the rise with 1014 00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:48,920 Speaker 1: the football program here, from an interest I see it 1015 00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:52,760 Speaker 1: with my friends, is this now coming at the cost 1016 00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:57,520 Speaker 1: of the interest and the nil money and the the 1017 00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:01,600 Speaker 1: what's the world I'm looking for here? The support of 1018 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:10,840 Speaker 1: the basketball program as this continues for football at Indiana. 1019 00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:10,640 Speaker 10: You're talking about basically like does it get to a 1020 00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:16,120 Speaker 10: place where you know, like football is almost siphoning off basketball, correct? 1021 00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:21,280 Speaker 1: Is basketball becoming Is basketball quickly becoming the secondary act? 1022 00:59:23,200 --> 00:59:26,240 Speaker 10: Yeah, I think that's possible. Now, I think there are 1023 00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:31,400 Speaker 10: some philosophical sort of questions to acknowledge. They're not just 1024 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:37,360 Speaker 10: specific to Indiana. For example, you know football is dramatically 1025 00:59:37,360 --> 00:59:40,320 Speaker 10: outpacing basketball and popularity in this country. And I think 1026 00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:43,560 Speaker 10: part of the reason why you have seen Indiana fans 1027 00:59:43,600 --> 00:59:47,000 Speaker 10: take football so quickly to to sort of their parts 1028 00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:49,480 Speaker 10: these last two seasons is just because the climate is 1029 00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:54,200 Speaker 10: right for some for to kind of hand a fan 1030 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:57,240 Speaker 10: base a newly successful. 1031 00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:59,760 Speaker 1: In and Zach listen, I want to weigh in on 1032 00:59:59,760 --> 01:00:02,160 Speaker 1: that because I did a whole segment the other day 1033 01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:05,120 Speaker 1: about this and I have no idea why I feel 1034 01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:09,320 Speaker 1: this way, but it seems to me. And it's not 1035 01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:11,760 Speaker 1: because I live in Indiana, and it's not because I 1036 01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:15,160 Speaker 1: went to Indiana and talked about Indiana. But it feels 1037 01:00:15,160 --> 01:00:20,000 Speaker 1: to me like there is this passing ships in the 1038 01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:26,120 Speaker 1: night of the sports fan interest and passion about college 1039 01:00:26,120 --> 01:00:29,440 Speaker 1: football in this country going in one direction and rising 1040 01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:32,840 Speaker 1: quickly before our very eyes. And college basketball and it's 1041 01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:37,040 Speaker 1: blue bloods, the Kentucky's, the Kansas Is, the Louisville's, the Dukes, 1042 01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:42,480 Speaker 1: all going through this weird transitional era that is hurting 1043 01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:47,160 Speaker 1: the overall regular season interest level of college basketball. Am 1044 01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:47,680 Speaker 1: I wrong? 1045 01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:48,640 Speaker 10: No? 1046 01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:49,640 Speaker 6: I think that's fair. 1047 01:00:49,680 --> 01:00:51,000 Speaker 10: That was kind of the other thing I was going 1048 01:00:51,080 --> 01:00:54,480 Speaker 10: to get to, which is that I think that where, 1049 01:00:55,080 --> 01:00:58,800 Speaker 10: and lord knows, it's far from perfect, but where this 1050 01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:02,080 Speaker 10: intersection of rev new sharing and NIL and the portal 1051 01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:07,680 Speaker 10: has almost you know, given college football this this sort 1052 01:01:07,720 --> 01:01:12,280 Speaker 10: of NFL draft and free agency kind of you know, 1053 01:01:12,400 --> 01:01:15,120 Speaker 10: off season electricity. I know it doesn't happen dur any offseason, 1054 01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:19,280 Speaker 10: but we've almost kind of we've built a mill a 1055 01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:23,320 Speaker 10: media industrial complex around covering that the same way that 1056 01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:25,040 Speaker 10: we do the draft, the same way that we do 1057 01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:29,480 Speaker 10: free agency. I don't think, well, I will be the 1058 01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:32,280 Speaker 10: first to acknowledge that the portal and all that at 1059 01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:36,440 Speaker 10: least keeps college basketball in sort of the public consciousness 1060 01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:39,400 Speaker 10: for another six to eight weeks a year. I don't 1061 01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:42,880 Speaker 10: think that necessarily that has been good for the college 1062 01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:46,000 Speaker 10: basketball product in the way that it has been accepted 1063 01:01:46,040 --> 01:01:48,520 Speaker 10: as good for the college football product. And that may 1064 01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:50,440 Speaker 10: be a little bit of confirmation biased like if you 1065 01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:54,280 Speaker 10: just if you just like football more than basketball as 1066 01:01:54,360 --> 01:01:59,040 Speaker 10: a sports watching population, then you're gonna like the stuff 1067 01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:01,040 Speaker 10: that comes with football off the field more than you're 1068 01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:02,760 Speaker 10: going to like the stuff that comes with basketball at 1069 01:02:02,760 --> 01:02:06,160 Speaker 10: the court. But I think that where I don't think 1070 01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:07,720 Speaker 10: I have seen and I don't know if this is 1071 01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:10,080 Speaker 10: a large numbers thing. I don't know if this is 1072 01:02:10,240 --> 01:02:14,000 Speaker 10: just a this is really just like a philothophical shift 1073 01:02:14,040 --> 01:02:16,080 Speaker 10: between the two sports. But I think there has been 1074 01:02:16,120 --> 01:02:23,320 Speaker 10: a lot less sort of revulsion and rejection at the 1075 01:02:23,400 --> 01:02:27,600 Speaker 10: idea of the portal and roster turnover in football than 1076 01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:29,040 Speaker 10: there has been a basketball And it could be, like 1077 01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:31,440 Speaker 10: I said, it could be a numbers thing where you 1078 01:02:31,480 --> 01:02:34,320 Speaker 10: can bring in twenty five new guys thirty five new 1079 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:36,560 Speaker 10: guys every year and there will still be fifty players 1080 01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:37,920 Speaker 10: on your team that were there the year before. In 1081 01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:40,880 Speaker 10: football that you recognize that you've cheered for, that your 1082 01:02:40,960 --> 01:02:44,360 Speaker 10: kids met at pep rally event or whatever. But you 1083 01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:47,600 Speaker 10: turn over nine guys on a basketball roster, even seven 1084 01:02:47,640 --> 01:02:49,520 Speaker 10: guys on a basketball roster, and suddenly the whole thing 1085 01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:51,160 Speaker 10: seems different. So that might be part of it. 1086 01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:54,040 Speaker 1: I mean, there's something to Zach no doubt when you're like, now, now, 1087 01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:57,840 Speaker 1: is that the Elon guy or is that the DePaul guy? 1088 01:02:57,880 --> 01:02:59,320 Speaker 1: I forget you know what I mean? And you do 1089 01:02:59,360 --> 01:03:00,720 Speaker 1: get into that, sure. 1090 01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:06,440 Speaker 10: Yeah, and listen, Indiana is also in this moment at 1091 01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:09,400 Speaker 10: you know, I'm hesitant to use Indiana as too much 1092 01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:14,120 Speaker 10: of a sort of like trend setter, because Indiana is 1093 01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:16,320 Speaker 10: kind of at the extreme ends of this right now. 1094 01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:19,760 Speaker 10: On the football side, it is realizing success that it 1095 01:03:19,800 --> 01:03:24,080 Speaker 10: has never known. That that is just historic, beyond what 1096 01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:27,760 Speaker 10: would have been previously considered possible. And on the basketball side, 1097 01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:29,760 Speaker 10: it's the first year of a new coach who turned 1098 01:03:29,760 --> 01:03:32,880 Speaker 10: over his entire roster, his entire staff. It's possible that 1099 01:03:32,920 --> 01:03:35,280 Speaker 10: these things equal out a little bit in two to 1100 01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:38,240 Speaker 10: three years, that sort of water finds its level, and 1101 01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:41,400 Speaker 10: we don't we don't look at these two sort of 1102 01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:44,120 Speaker 10: programs of being quite the extremes they are right now. 1103 01:03:44,440 --> 01:03:46,480 Speaker 10: But the last thing I would say to your point, 1104 01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:52,960 Speaker 10: everyone knows this basketball is not the currency that is 1105 01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:57,240 Speaker 10: that is going to spind your way into safety in 1106 01:03:57,360 --> 01:04:00,240 Speaker 10: college sports in the future. That you know, every one 1107 01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:04,240 Speaker 10: knows there is another round of consolidation coming probably in 1108 01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:07,120 Speaker 10: the next five to eight years once a lot of 1109 01:04:07,120 --> 01:04:11,600 Speaker 10: these TV deals start to be renegotiated at the start 1110 01:04:11,600 --> 01:04:14,800 Speaker 10: of the next decade. Football is what's going to keep 1111 01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:16,920 Speaker 10: you in the room and the music stops. Football is 1112 01:04:16,920 --> 01:04:18,640 Speaker 10: what's going to make sure that you have a chair 1113 01:04:18,680 --> 01:04:22,440 Speaker 10: to sit in. Basketball is something like one tenth of 1114 01:04:23,080 --> 01:04:28,240 Speaker 10: like the media rights equation here, Football is like, you know, 1115 01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:30,000 Speaker 10: eight point nine. 1116 01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:33,320 Speaker 1: It's why during conference realignment nobody cared where Kentucky and 1117 01:04:33,400 --> 01:04:35,520 Speaker 1: Kansas ended up exactly. 1118 01:04:35,760 --> 01:04:39,680 Speaker 10: And so there is also that I think fans not 1119 01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:41,919 Speaker 10: that this is good for the sport. I'm not saying 1120 01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:44,479 Speaker 10: that something that should be celebrated, but I think even 1121 01:04:44,520 --> 01:04:50,800 Speaker 10: fans have come to sort of recognize and support the 1122 01:04:50,920 --> 01:04:55,200 Speaker 10: idea that if you have the opportunity to be good 1123 01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:58,080 Speaker 10: at football right now, that's something you've got to go 1124 01:04:58,320 --> 01:05:01,080 Speaker 10: all in on. Now there's again, like you said, we 1125 01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:03,040 Speaker 10: could talk ourselves blue in the face about all of this. 1126 01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:05,600 Speaker 10: There are some other changes that I suspect are going 1127 01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:07,560 Speaker 10: to happen in the revshare in NIL states in the 1128 01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:10,520 Speaker 10: next few years, next couple of years, maybe that that 1129 01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:12,480 Speaker 10: are going to make it a little bit easier for 1130 01:05:12,520 --> 01:05:16,959 Speaker 10: athletics departments to fund both of these sports. A little 1131 01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:20,200 Speaker 10: bit more fully. In particular, I think you're I think 1132 01:05:20,200 --> 01:05:23,640 Speaker 10: there's a decent chance you're going to see UH schools 1133 01:05:23,680 --> 01:05:26,880 Speaker 10: allowed to add scholarships in non revenue sports without that 1134 01:05:27,040 --> 01:05:29,520 Speaker 10: counting against the revshare camp, and then basically all the 1135 01:05:29,560 --> 01:05:32,280 Speaker 10: revshare money would just buy a large go to basketball 1136 01:05:32,480 --> 01:05:37,080 Speaker 10: and football. But it is, you know, listen, it is. 1137 01:05:37,800 --> 01:05:40,360 Speaker 10: I think it is possible at once to say Indiana 1138 01:05:40,480 --> 01:05:42,600 Speaker 10: is a bit of an extreme case right now, and 1139 01:05:42,680 --> 01:05:45,400 Speaker 10: that using Indiana as sort of the Canarian the coal 1140 01:05:45,440 --> 01:05:48,680 Speaker 10: mine is probably a little bit dangerous, while also acknowledging 1141 01:05:48,680 --> 01:05:54,040 Speaker 10: that Indiana undeniably reflects the wider sort of trend in 1142 01:05:54,080 --> 01:06:00,000 Speaker 10: college athletics, which is that football in financial, competitive, political, 1143 01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:05,160 Speaker 10: coal and cultural importance is dramatically outfacing basketball, and there's 1144 01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:07,280 Speaker 10: not really an end insight on that. 1145 01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:08,960 Speaker 1: By the way, Canary and the coal Mine is a 1146 01:06:08,960 --> 01:06:11,040 Speaker 1: great song by the Police. I've never really understood what 1147 01:06:11,040 --> 01:06:13,240 Speaker 1: the term means. Do you know what the term means? 1148 01:06:13,320 --> 01:06:17,000 Speaker 10: Coal Miners used to bring canaries with them into the 1149 01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:22,600 Speaker 10: mines before we had carbon monoxide detection equipment, because this 1150 01:06:22,680 --> 01:06:25,160 Speaker 10: was always my understanding of the phrase anyway, because the 1151 01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:30,160 Speaker 10: canary would succumb to carbon monoxide poisoning much more quickly 1152 01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:32,520 Speaker 10: than a human would, and if the canary passed out 1153 01:06:32,600 --> 01:06:34,800 Speaker 10: or died, then the coal miners would know that there 1154 01:06:34,840 --> 01:06:37,120 Speaker 10: was a carbon monoxide lead somewhere and they needed to 1155 01:06:37,120 --> 01:06:37,920 Speaker 10: get out of the mine. 1156 01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:42,160 Speaker 1: That seems you know, unfair, right it does? Yeah, Okay, 1157 01:06:44,800 --> 01:06:46,720 Speaker 1: that makes it. I don't know why the canary though, Like, 1158 01:06:46,760 --> 01:06:49,600 Speaker 1: why not? You know, I mean, there canaries seem like 1159 01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:52,760 Speaker 1: nice birds. Didn't do anything to anybody, good singers, right, 1160 01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:54,240 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, there's a lot to like about 1161 01:06:54,240 --> 01:06:57,240 Speaker 1: a canary, you know, why not a blue jay? They're 1162 01:06:57,320 --> 01:07:00,160 Speaker 1: very aggressive birds. They they're you know, they can be 1163 01:07:00,280 --> 01:07:03,040 Speaker 1: a bit of a pest so to speak. 1164 01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:04,240 Speaker 6: You know. 1165 01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:05,720 Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean I think it was. I think it 1166 01:07:05,840 --> 01:07:08,160 Speaker 10: was the ease of use of getting a scenario into 1167 01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:09,160 Speaker 10: a cage and bringing it. 1168 01:07:09,120 --> 01:07:11,360 Speaker 6: Down into the months. 1169 01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:13,760 Speaker 1: Just one in your local pet store, get a canary. Well, 1170 01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:16,000 Speaker 1: I'll tell you that that frank guy that wears that 1171 01:07:16,000 --> 01:07:18,320 Speaker 1: that little light on his head, he's in here getting 1172 01:07:18,320 --> 01:07:21,760 Speaker 1: canaries four or five times a week. What's up with 1173 01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:25,600 Speaker 1: that guy? He better have a newspaper subscription. That guy's 1174 01:07:25,640 --> 01:07:26,440 Speaker 1: got a lot of birds. 1175 01:07:26,680 --> 01:07:27,000 Speaker 11: Okay. 1176 01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:31,600 Speaker 1: Lastly, what is Indiana Zach real quick. You know, as 1177 01:07:31,680 --> 01:07:34,840 Speaker 1: Indiana gets set now to go out to Pasadena, has 1178 01:07:34,920 --> 01:07:38,120 Speaker 1: Kurt Signetti handled his I know that he said, you know, 1179 01:07:38,160 --> 01:07:40,240 Speaker 1: I got to get these guys humbled and and you 1180 01:07:40,280 --> 01:07:42,560 Speaker 1: know the phrase that he uses right hard wore humble. 1181 01:07:43,640 --> 01:07:46,200 Speaker 1: Is their schedule changed at all? Have they gone about 1182 01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:48,560 Speaker 1: have they Have they backed off a little bit to 1183 01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:51,640 Speaker 1: get rested? Have they gone full bore? Are they simply 1184 01:07:51,640 --> 01:07:53,680 Speaker 1: waiting to see who they're gonna play? What's been the 1185 01:07:53,760 --> 01:07:55,240 Speaker 1: schedule for Indiana football. 1186 01:07:56,520 --> 01:07:59,000 Speaker 10: Yeah, so they just kind of fire back up this week. 1187 01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:02,440 Speaker 10: They got some time off kind of in the immediate 1188 01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:06,040 Speaker 10: aftermath as a Big Ten championship game, which was always 1189 01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:08,960 Speaker 10: the plan. You know, Signetti kind of I think outlined 1190 01:08:09,000 --> 01:08:12,200 Speaker 10: with us even before the game against Ohio State basically 1191 01:08:12,200 --> 01:08:14,520 Speaker 10: that it would it would sort of be a like 1192 01:08:14,600 --> 01:08:17,360 Speaker 10: immediately following everyone would get some rest. There'd be a 1193 01:08:17,439 --> 01:08:19,840 Speaker 10: lot of focus on, you know, getting guys healthy, getting 1194 01:08:19,840 --> 01:08:23,120 Speaker 10: guys as fresh as possible, getting treatment into players who's 1195 01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:25,639 Speaker 10: maybe been playing with injuries and different things like that. 1196 01:08:26,640 --> 01:08:28,120 Speaker 10: This week is the week that they were kind of 1197 01:08:28,120 --> 01:08:31,320 Speaker 10: going to get back to work. You know that that 1198 01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:33,960 Speaker 10: Signetti has said he and his staff were kind of 1199 01:08:33,960 --> 01:08:36,280 Speaker 10: going to be balancing between self scout and then some 1200 01:08:36,400 --> 01:08:41,080 Speaker 10: Oklahoma from Alabama. We've heard individual players, including Fernana Mendoza, 1201 01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:42,720 Speaker 10: kind of talk about how they probably watched a little 1202 01:08:42,760 --> 01:08:46,320 Speaker 10: bit of both teams. But typically, you know, as with 1203 01:08:46,600 --> 01:08:49,559 Speaker 10: a lot of Bowl prep, you do spend a little 1204 01:08:49,560 --> 01:08:52,000 Speaker 10: bit of time focusing on yourself. You spend a little 1205 01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:53,679 Speaker 10: bit of time sort of saying, Okay, let's go back 1206 01:08:54,240 --> 01:08:56,000 Speaker 10: some things that we weren't able to work on and 1207 01:08:56,080 --> 01:09:00,719 Speaker 10: the sort of meat grinder of the season. Let's maybe 1208 01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:03,559 Speaker 10: clean up some fundamental things that we saw really develop 1209 01:09:03,640 --> 01:09:06,080 Speaker 10: over the last months. Again, let's try to get some 1210 01:09:06,120 --> 01:09:08,560 Speaker 10: guys healthy. And then I think you're really going to 1211 01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:12,000 Speaker 10: see Indiana beginning to prepare in earnest once it knows 1212 01:09:12,040 --> 01:09:14,080 Speaker 10: obviously it's opponent. The only thing that I think is 1213 01:09:14,439 --> 01:09:17,880 Speaker 10: it's probably different from like the old sort of standard 1214 01:09:18,120 --> 01:09:21,040 Speaker 10: Bowl practice set up is that you ended you used 1215 01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:24,400 Speaker 10: to use your Bowl practices as almost a like a 1216 01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:27,840 Speaker 10: second spring seasonally, and you would you would give your 1217 01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:35,040 Speaker 10: young players. Yeah, exactly, I think that that that's probably gone. 1218 01:09:35,080 --> 01:09:38,040 Speaker 10: Now you have to spend more of this time on 1219 01:09:38,160 --> 01:09:39,679 Speaker 10: the guys that are going to be on the field, 1220 01:09:39,760 --> 01:09:45,200 Speaker 10: because you know, listen, you know you're basically entering almost 1221 01:09:45,280 --> 01:09:47,679 Speaker 10: like a season onto itself. Now, if if Indiana wins 1222 01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:49,559 Speaker 10: this game, they'll turn around and have one week to 1223 01:09:49,600 --> 01:09:51,680 Speaker 10: prepare for whoever they play in the Beach Bowl. And 1224 01:09:51,720 --> 01:09:53,360 Speaker 10: if they win that game, they'll have a little bit 1225 01:09:53,400 --> 01:09:56,400 Speaker 10: more time to prepare for the national title. But like it, 1226 01:09:57,000 --> 01:09:59,040 Speaker 10: once you get back into that rhythm, there's not going 1227 01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:00,920 Speaker 10: to be time to sort of break back out of 1228 01:10:00,920 --> 01:10:03,480 Speaker 10: it and you know, get a little bit more fundamental 1229 01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:06,040 Speaker 10: or philosophical again. So I think that's the only thing 1230 01:10:06,040 --> 01:10:08,360 Speaker 10: that's really changed now from the old ball prep is 1231 01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:11,200 Speaker 10: that your younger players, the ones that aren't necessarily going 1232 01:10:11,280 --> 01:10:13,920 Speaker 10: to be involved in these games, probably aren't getting as 1233 01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:16,800 Speaker 10: much sort of quality on field time as if. Coach 1234 01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:18,400 Speaker 10: you used to almost look at bull prep as like 1235 01:10:18,439 --> 01:10:21,320 Speaker 10: you've got a second spring season. Now I think it 1236 01:10:21,400 --> 01:10:23,519 Speaker 10: is much more about whether you have to buy or 1237 01:10:23,560 --> 01:10:27,519 Speaker 10: you don't. The playoff is we are intensely focused on 1238 01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:31,000 Speaker 10: us here now and getting ready for whatever now. 1239 01:10:31,040 --> 01:10:34,559 Speaker 1: I have been in bowl seasons since September of nineteen 1240 01:10:34,680 --> 01:10:37,120 Speaker 1: seventy two because it was at that time I began 1241 01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:38,840 Speaker 1: focusing on myself. 1242 01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:40,320 Speaker 3: And I've never stopped. I'm not going to lie to 1243 01:10:40,360 --> 01:10:40,919 Speaker 3: you about. 1244 01:10:40,720 --> 01:10:44,439 Speaker 1: That, said Zach Ostraman Osterman from the Indianapolis Star Indiana 1245 01:10:44,479 --> 01:10:47,120 Speaker 1: football basketball as well. Again, Hoo's yours on the basketball 1246 01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:51,160 Speaker 1: side of things taking on Chicago State. That game is tomorrow. 1247 01:10:51,160 --> 01:10:54,600 Speaker 1: You can hear on our sister station WIBC. Zach appreciate 1248 01:10:54,640 --> 01:10:56,640 Speaker 1: the time as always on the Joba House peel of 1249 01:10:56,680 --> 01:10:57,479 Speaker 1: poor guest line. 1250 01:10:58,479 --> 01:10:59,640 Speaker 10: Absolutely thanks for having me. 1251 01:11:00,280 --> 01:11:04,480 Speaker 1: Now, Zach was talking about balance, right, things be balanced, 1252 01:11:04,680 --> 01:11:07,679 Speaker 1: and I hear all the time we're imbalanced. Our coverage 1253 01:11:07,680 --> 01:11:11,080 Speaker 1: is imbalanced. Guess what not this time? Because you talked 1254 01:11:11,080 --> 01:11:14,240 Speaker 1: about Purdue. I mentioned Purdue taking on Auburn Big One 1255 01:11:14,320 --> 01:11:17,559 Speaker 1: Saturday six thirty. Voice of the Boilers Rob Blackman. Next, 1256 01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:28,040 Speaker 1: you know, this is one day Sting was recording and 1257 01:11:28,080 --> 01:11:31,000 Speaker 1: then he had himself one of the Wrangular Energy drinks 1258 01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:34,200 Speaker 1: from Java House. Got a little extra step song, got 1259 01:11:34,240 --> 01:11:36,679 Speaker 1: a little faster, great song, Jake. 1260 01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:38,200 Speaker 5: What do you think would happen if you just took 1261 01:11:38,240 --> 01:11:41,719 Speaker 5: the shot of the pod of the Monster Energy instead 1262 01:11:41,720 --> 01:11:44,000 Speaker 5: of adding it to the water be. 1263 01:11:43,960 --> 01:11:47,640 Speaker 1: A little sweet. I mean, I think any way that 1264 01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:49,840 Speaker 1: you were to do it any of the pods from 1265 01:11:50,040 --> 01:11:53,200 Speaker 1: Java House would be outstanding, but you mix them with 1266 01:11:53,200 --> 01:11:56,160 Speaker 1: the water I did yesterday. I you know, I told 1267 01:11:56,200 --> 01:12:00,000 Speaker 1: you exactly how it works, right, did you? By the way, 1268 01:12:00,040 --> 01:12:04,599 Speaker 1: I don't know what's what's happening? Are are you launching 1269 01:12:04,600 --> 01:12:06,920 Speaker 1: a rocket in there? What's going what's going on? 1270 01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:07,479 Speaker 8: Do we know? 1271 01:12:07,760 --> 01:12:10,679 Speaker 1: Is everything okay? All of a sudden, All of a sudden, 1272 01:12:10,920 --> 01:12:13,120 Speaker 1: I just heard it sounded like the sound I was 1273 01:12:13,120 --> 01:12:15,600 Speaker 1: making yesterday with an actual coffee maker. Before you just 1274 01:12:15,600 --> 01:12:17,840 Speaker 1: take the pot and you put in the water. There's 1275 01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:18,799 Speaker 1: your instant beverage. 1276 01:12:18,880 --> 01:12:19,040 Speaker 7: Right. 1277 01:12:19,840 --> 01:12:22,519 Speaker 3: It appears there's some construction right outside the building. 1278 01:12:23,080 --> 01:12:23,760 Speaker 4: I know he. 1279 01:12:25,320 --> 01:12:26,799 Speaker 3: Just has the steps finished. 1280 01:12:28,080 --> 01:12:31,400 Speaker 1: I understand, but have you checked to make sure that 1281 01:12:31,439 --> 01:12:34,560 Speaker 1: guy's not actually coming in the window. I don't know 1282 01:12:34,600 --> 01:12:36,360 Speaker 1: if that went out over the radio or not, but 1283 01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:39,000 Speaker 1: for a split second there, it was a little bit disconcerting. 1284 01:12:39,800 --> 01:12:43,479 Speaker 1: I saw the look on your face, and Eddie, who who? 1285 01:12:43,520 --> 01:12:45,000 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie to you, Eddie, for most of 1286 01:12:45,040 --> 01:12:47,400 Speaker 1: today's been one aspiren from a coma. But all of 1287 01:12:47,439 --> 01:12:49,720 Speaker 1: a sudden, the canary in the coal mine of the 1288 01:12:49,760 --> 01:12:52,920 Speaker 1: sound of a buzz saw outside, and Eddie jumped up 1289 01:12:53,240 --> 01:12:54,599 Speaker 1: like I've never seen before. 1290 01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:54,960 Speaker 6: Right. 1291 01:12:55,280 --> 01:12:57,000 Speaker 1: That was like you coming out of the catcher stance 1292 01:12:57,080 --> 01:12:58,280 Speaker 1: and somebody's trying to get the second. 1293 01:12:58,320 --> 01:13:00,400 Speaker 5: I will also say this, I love this new studio 1294 01:13:00,400 --> 01:13:01,640 Speaker 5: in here for me because it gives me the. 1295 01:13:01,640 --> 01:13:03,280 Speaker 3: Ability to actually stand up more. 1296 01:13:03,920 --> 01:13:04,240 Speaker 1: It's great. 1297 01:13:04,280 --> 01:13:06,519 Speaker 3: Previous I was just you know, stuck to the grounds. 1298 01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:08,200 Speaker 1: I mean, they've done a state of the art job, 1299 01:13:08,360 --> 01:13:10,680 Speaker 1: have our engineers and putting this stuff together for us. 1300 01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:12,280 Speaker 1: Joining us now on the job of house Peel and 1301 01:13:12,320 --> 01:13:14,080 Speaker 1: port guest line. He is the radio voice of the 1302 01:13:14,080 --> 01:13:16,879 Speaker 1: Purdue boiler Makers. Purdue with a big one against Auburn 1303 01:13:17,040 --> 01:13:20,599 Speaker 1: coming up. As it can seem it seems, Rob Blackman, 1304 01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:22,960 Speaker 1: I think you'd agreed with me on this. It seems 1305 01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:26,759 Speaker 1: like the produced schedule. Literally every single time you turn around, 1306 01:13:26,760 --> 01:13:28,840 Speaker 1: it's a different ranked team staring in the face. 1307 01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:31,360 Speaker 6: Yeah, and I'll tell you what. 1308 01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:34,080 Speaker 4: I would also give a tip of the cap to 1309 01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:37,360 Speaker 4: Auburn as well, who's going to be their fourth top 1310 01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:40,720 Speaker 4: ten team. They've played already this year. They this will 1311 01:13:40,760 --> 01:13:42,800 Speaker 4: be their twelfth game and for the twelve have been 1312 01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:45,760 Speaker 4: to the top ten. So you have two teams that 1313 01:13:45,800 --> 01:13:48,760 Speaker 4: have not been bashful about the scheduling high level competition, 1314 01:13:48,880 --> 01:13:52,880 Speaker 4: and you know some of that stuff like old for instance, 1315 01:13:52,880 --> 01:13:55,479 Speaker 4: when Purdue played in the Bahamas. You know, you don't 1316 01:13:55,520 --> 01:13:58,160 Speaker 4: have any real control over that. Whoever makes the tournament 1317 01:13:58,200 --> 01:14:00,599 Speaker 4: push together the schedule. So the fact you got Texas 1318 01:14:00,680 --> 01:14:03,880 Speaker 4: Tech certainly helped, but there's no way knowing going into it. 1319 01:14:04,479 --> 01:14:06,519 Speaker 4: But yeah, the least as far as the games that 1320 01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:08,839 Speaker 4: produce has been able to schedule at their own position. 1321 01:14:09,520 --> 01:14:12,240 Speaker 4: Matt Painter, as he's been doing the last five, six, 1322 01:14:12,320 --> 01:14:15,280 Speaker 4: seven years. I've done everything in its power to make 1323 01:14:15,280 --> 01:14:18,519 Speaker 4: sure you put together quality schedule and hopefully put enough 1324 01:14:18,520 --> 01:14:20,040 Speaker 4: good teams on there to get you ready for the 1325 01:14:20,040 --> 01:14:21,719 Speaker 4: Big ten portion of the season. 1326 01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:26,680 Speaker 1: Okay, when you mentioned top ten games and robins the 1327 01:14:26,720 --> 01:14:28,880 Speaker 1: first time, you know, I realized that there have been 1328 01:14:28,920 --> 01:14:31,400 Speaker 1: games since then, two of them as a matter of fact. 1329 01:14:31,479 --> 01:14:34,160 Speaker 1: But I want to go back to this. One of 1330 01:14:34,200 --> 01:14:38,439 Speaker 1: the advantages of scheduling yourself and challenging yourself via schedule 1331 01:14:38,640 --> 01:14:41,160 Speaker 1: is you know, you could learn things or take away 1332 01:14:41,200 --> 01:14:43,439 Speaker 1: things for the regular season. That's really what it's all about. 1333 01:14:43,720 --> 01:14:46,479 Speaker 1: But Iowa State came in. It is the largest margin 1334 01:14:46,520 --> 01:14:49,320 Speaker 1: of victory on the road between two Top ten teams 1335 01:14:49,320 --> 01:14:52,200 Speaker 1: out of conference, I believe in college basketball history with 1336 01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:55,600 Speaker 1: what Iowa State was able to do to completely control Purdue, 1337 01:14:55,880 --> 01:14:58,880 Speaker 1: did they expose anything of purduing that game? 1338 01:15:01,880 --> 01:15:02,839 Speaker 6: Boy, good question. 1339 01:15:03,439 --> 01:15:05,840 Speaker 4: I think the only thing, the one thing they exposed 1340 01:15:06,240 --> 01:15:10,160 Speaker 4: at least answered a question for Purdue that Perdue wasn't 1341 01:15:10,200 --> 01:15:13,080 Speaker 4: quite sure of the answer. And now they know it 1342 01:15:13,120 --> 01:15:17,360 Speaker 4: is that Purdue's big three Brayden and Fletcher and Trey 1343 01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:20,120 Speaker 4: Kaufman Wan cannot have a mediocre to bad day all 1344 01:15:20,160 --> 01:15:23,360 Speaker 4: on the same day, not against quality opponent, at least 1345 01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:26,320 Speaker 4: not right now. Matt Painter has said as much. As 1346 01:15:26,320 --> 01:15:29,400 Speaker 4: a matter of fact, he talked about that earlier this week. 1347 01:15:29,880 --> 01:15:31,920 Speaker 4: I recorded a podcast with him and he was talking 1348 01:15:31,960 --> 01:15:35,200 Speaker 4: about that. When you look at Purdue and where they 1349 01:15:35,240 --> 01:15:38,240 Speaker 4: are right now, this very second December or whatever it's nineteenth, 1350 01:15:38,280 --> 01:15:41,120 Speaker 4: I guess December nineteenth. Purdue is not good enough right 1351 01:15:41,160 --> 01:15:43,639 Speaker 4: now to survive a day when all three, when you're 1352 01:15:43,640 --> 01:15:46,920 Speaker 4: big three, have mediocre to poor days, which is what 1353 01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:47,720 Speaker 4: happened that day. 1354 01:15:47,920 --> 01:15:50,400 Speaker 6: And look, we're going to be truthful here. It was 1355 01:15:50,439 --> 01:15:51,719 Speaker 6: really just one bad half. 1356 01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:53,840 Speaker 4: You know, Purdue was down four in the first half, 1357 01:15:53,880 --> 01:15:56,640 Speaker 4: and as actually we're doing Okay, it was just the second. 1358 01:15:56,360 --> 01:15:58,840 Speaker 6: Half got awfully ugly there for Purdue. 1359 01:15:59,600 --> 01:16:03,240 Speaker 4: But so that's probably the one the answer that came 1360 01:16:03,280 --> 01:16:04,800 Speaker 4: out of that that you were kind of thinking, well, 1361 01:16:04,840 --> 01:16:05,840 Speaker 4: I'm not sure about this. 1362 01:16:05,880 --> 01:16:07,160 Speaker 6: Well now you know. Now you know. 1363 01:16:08,160 --> 01:16:10,599 Speaker 4: And as Matt Painter you mentioned earlier in the week 1364 01:16:10,640 --> 01:16:12,960 Speaker 4: when I talked to him. So now the goal is 1365 01:16:13,040 --> 01:16:16,040 Speaker 4: the trick is what do we need to do to 1366 01:16:16,080 --> 01:16:18,439 Speaker 4: put ourselves in a position where, if indeed that would 1367 01:16:18,479 --> 01:16:22,000 Speaker 4: happen again, say, somewhere in the Big ten schedule, can 1368 01:16:22,040 --> 01:16:24,519 Speaker 4: we find a way to win, because right now not 1369 01:16:24,640 --> 01:16:28,040 Speaker 4: good enough to do that. If you can work your 1370 01:16:28,040 --> 01:16:29,920 Speaker 4: way towards being able to do that when the Big 1371 01:16:29,920 --> 01:16:31,639 Speaker 4: three are playing well on the same day and still 1372 01:16:31,680 --> 01:16:33,639 Speaker 4: find a way to win, and then you've really made 1373 01:16:33,640 --> 01:16:35,960 Speaker 4: some progress. But that's the one thing to me I 1374 01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:37,160 Speaker 4: think that came out of that game. 1375 01:16:38,160 --> 01:16:40,519 Speaker 1: Rob. Every once in a while, and I know this 1376 01:16:40,600 --> 01:16:42,920 Speaker 1: will shock you, Rob Blackman, our guest job, a house 1377 01:16:42,920 --> 01:16:44,800 Speaker 1: peel and poor guest line. Every once in a while 1378 01:16:44,960 --> 01:16:48,240 Speaker 1: I come up with terms to allow my brain to 1379 01:16:48,280 --> 01:16:51,439 Speaker 1: illustrate things. And then I realized that I'm the only 1380 01:16:51,479 --> 01:16:54,880 Speaker 1: one that understands the term. Okay, so let me give 1381 01:16:54,880 --> 01:16:57,200 Speaker 1: you a term and then I'm going to explain it 1382 01:16:57,240 --> 01:17:00,559 Speaker 1: to you. Okay, I call it that Darren the Darren 1383 01:17:00,600 --> 01:17:04,519 Speaker 1: Hancock phenomenon. Now I'm assuming that you are unfamiliar with 1384 01:17:04,560 --> 01:17:05,840 Speaker 1: the name Darren Hancock. 1385 01:17:05,960 --> 01:17:08,560 Speaker 6: Correct, I am unfamiliar. 1386 01:17:08,760 --> 01:17:11,000 Speaker 1: Okay, it is not Herbie Hancock that was rocket, but 1387 01:17:11,080 --> 01:17:14,479 Speaker 1: Darren Hancock was a When I was at the University 1388 01:17:14,479 --> 01:17:17,679 Speaker 1: of Kansas a billion years ago and KU was really good, 1389 01:17:18,439 --> 01:17:22,280 Speaker 1: and the big buzz was they had signed the number 1390 01:17:22,280 --> 01:17:24,880 Speaker 1: one transfer in the country, Darren Hancock, that was a 1391 01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:28,280 Speaker 1: high fly in twenty plus point per game score out 1392 01:17:28,280 --> 01:17:30,400 Speaker 1: of junior college, and he was going to be the 1393 01:17:30,439 --> 01:17:34,479 Speaker 1: final piece for KU. And he got there, and while 1394 01:17:35,320 --> 01:17:39,920 Speaker 1: Kansas was good, he just never found footing and never 1395 01:17:40,880 --> 01:17:43,559 Speaker 1: as good as he was, he wasn't good for them. 1396 01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:46,880 Speaker 1: It just didn't work, Okay. And you see that a 1397 01:17:46,880 --> 01:17:49,400 Speaker 1: lot with transfers that are upperclassmen, because they already have 1398 01:17:49,600 --> 01:17:51,920 Speaker 1: set in their ways kind of the style in which 1399 01:17:51,960 --> 01:17:54,640 Speaker 1: they play. And I was curious as to whether or 1400 01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:58,320 Speaker 1: not Oscar Kluff would be a Darren Hancock phenomenon, and 1401 01:17:58,360 --> 01:18:02,400 Speaker 1: it seems to be the complete opposite. Is this as 1402 01:18:02,520 --> 01:18:05,880 Speaker 1: good an acclamation for a guy as you have seen 1403 01:18:06,520 --> 01:18:07,559 Speaker 1: on Purdue rosters. 1404 01:18:09,160 --> 01:18:11,280 Speaker 4: Well, I would put it in the argument with Lance 1405 01:18:11,360 --> 01:18:15,240 Speaker 4: Jones if we're just talking grad transfers for one year. 1406 01:18:15,960 --> 01:18:17,960 Speaker 6: I think getting Purdue fan would. 1407 01:18:17,800 --> 01:18:20,280 Speaker 4: Admit Lance Jones was the missing peach that got Purdue 1408 01:18:20,320 --> 01:18:23,320 Speaker 4: to the Final Four. Even though he was the worst 1409 01:18:23,320 --> 01:18:24,960 Speaker 4: three point shooter on the team, if you just go 1410 01:18:25,080 --> 01:18:27,240 Speaker 4: percentages as far as the guys that were shooting the 1411 01:18:27,240 --> 01:18:30,280 Speaker 4: most of them. Even though his turnover numbers were way 1412 01:18:30,320 --> 01:18:33,719 Speaker 4: too high, he still was the missing piece that Purdue 1413 01:18:33,760 --> 01:18:36,160 Speaker 4: needed from his effort on the defensive end and the 1414 01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:37,200 Speaker 4: fact that he could hit. 1415 01:18:37,080 --> 01:18:37,639 Speaker 6: The big shot. 1416 01:18:37,760 --> 01:18:39,599 Speaker 4: You never knew when it was coming, but he could 1417 01:18:39,600 --> 01:18:42,479 Speaker 4: do it. So I would put those two in that 1418 01:18:42,640 --> 01:18:46,080 Speaker 4: same argument. I have to tell you, Jake, he was 1419 01:18:47,400 --> 01:18:49,760 Speaker 4: of course, last spring was so crazy you had because 1420 01:18:49,760 --> 01:18:53,240 Speaker 4: the transfer portal had opened up. Purdue was in Indianapolis 1421 01:18:53,240 --> 01:18:57,400 Speaker 4: getting ready to play in Sweet sixteen. So you know, look, 1422 01:18:57,479 --> 01:19:00,760 Speaker 4: this wasn't immune the just lose. I should say it 1423 01:19:00,840 --> 01:19:03,120 Speaker 4: is Purdue coaches, but anyone who is still in the 1424 01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:06,800 Speaker 4: Sweet sixteen was in this predicament. If you're trying to 1425 01:19:06,800 --> 01:19:08,639 Speaker 4: coach your team and get ready to try to advance 1426 01:19:08,680 --> 01:19:11,320 Speaker 4: in the NCAA tournament, but the transfer portal windows open, 1427 01:19:11,360 --> 01:19:13,000 Speaker 4: so you're also trying to make your team better for 1428 01:19:13,080 --> 01:19:15,080 Speaker 4: next year. So you have all these different things on 1429 01:19:15,120 --> 01:19:17,840 Speaker 4: your plate. And I'm telling you this story because I 1430 01:19:17,840 --> 01:19:20,479 Speaker 4: can promise you spending enough time with the Purdue coaches 1431 01:19:20,520 --> 01:19:23,360 Speaker 4: in downtown Indy last year prepping for that Houston Sweet 1432 01:19:23,400 --> 01:19:27,080 Speaker 4: sixteen game, there was a whole lot of discussion about 1433 01:19:27,080 --> 01:19:29,720 Speaker 4: Oscar Cluck is the guy we absolutely have to have. 1434 01:19:30,400 --> 01:19:32,320 Speaker 4: You know, you said, okay, you can get one guy 1435 01:19:32,320 --> 01:19:35,679 Speaker 4: from the portal, but you have to sell your soul 1436 01:19:35,720 --> 01:19:37,800 Speaker 4: to the devil. It would have been Oscar club that. 1437 01:19:37,840 --> 01:19:40,080 Speaker 4: It's how sold they were on what they thought he 1438 01:19:40,120 --> 01:19:42,760 Speaker 4: could bring to this team, sure enough that these do 1439 01:19:42,880 --> 01:19:45,760 Speaker 4: the first eleven games he has done just that. I 1440 01:19:45,800 --> 01:19:49,640 Speaker 4: mean he's the number one field goal percent percentage to 1441 01:19:49,640 --> 01:19:52,479 Speaker 4: make seventy five percent. I mean he doesn't take bad shots. 1442 01:19:52,520 --> 01:19:55,160 Speaker 4: He takes shots he knows he can make. And that's 1443 01:19:55,200 --> 01:19:57,360 Speaker 4: why averaging twelve points a game. It's one thing if 1444 01:19:57,360 --> 01:19:59,559 Speaker 4: you're averaging two points a game, right, but he's averaging 1445 01:19:59,600 --> 01:20:02,080 Speaker 4: twelve points, it's a game. Shooting seventy five percent, he's 1446 01:20:02,080 --> 01:20:04,400 Speaker 4: a good pre throw shooter eighty one percent house shooter, 1447 01:20:04,720 --> 01:20:08,240 Speaker 4: and he leaves the country in offensive rebounding percentage. So 1448 01:20:08,640 --> 01:20:12,639 Speaker 4: everything for due needed in the portal they got. And yes, 1449 01:20:12,680 --> 01:20:14,519 Speaker 4: you never know when you know you're talking about your 1450 01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:16,800 Speaker 4: guy Hancock. You never know when you bring those guys in. 1451 01:20:16,880 --> 01:20:19,040 Speaker 4: You're watching one film as much as you can that 1452 01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:21,320 Speaker 4: you know, the coaches do their their due diligence, They 1453 01:20:21,400 --> 01:20:24,200 Speaker 4: talk to other coaches or the players whatever in DA scouts, 1454 01:20:24,200 --> 01:20:27,360 Speaker 4: all these guys that big trust, but you never really know. 1455 01:20:27,479 --> 01:20:30,320 Speaker 4: But the fact that Oscar Cluff has yes acclimated himself 1456 01:20:30,360 --> 01:20:33,600 Speaker 4: not only just to be a good player, but apparently 1457 01:20:33,920 --> 01:20:37,560 Speaker 4: it seems to have have plugged every single hole that 1458 01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:40,680 Speaker 4: needed plugged to have an elite team again. This year 1459 01:20:41,040 --> 01:20:42,479 Speaker 4: has had a come story. 1460 01:20:42,880 --> 01:20:44,679 Speaker 1: And I don't mean this to be on the negative 1461 01:20:44,720 --> 01:20:48,760 Speaker 1: side of it, rob, but I'm curious, has the reliability 1462 01:20:48,920 --> 01:20:52,479 Speaker 1: and the just the minutes that Kluff is giving them 1463 01:20:52,800 --> 01:20:55,080 Speaker 1: has that come at the cost of anything else? In 1464 01:20:55,120 --> 01:20:58,760 Speaker 1: other words, maybe taking away a little bit from the 1465 01:20:58,920 --> 01:21:01,439 Speaker 1: establishment offensive have Trey Kaufman Wren who has still been 1466 01:21:01,560 --> 01:21:05,559 Speaker 1: very very good, or the growth of Daniel Jacobson, or 1467 01:21:05,680 --> 01:21:08,400 Speaker 1: is it really the perfect balance kind of across all three. 1468 01:21:09,320 --> 01:21:11,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the perfect balance, And especially with Trey 1469 01:21:11,560 --> 01:21:15,040 Speaker 4: Kaufman wren his scoring numbers are down, but that's actually 1470 01:21:15,120 --> 01:21:17,200 Speaker 4: a good thing for Purdue. You know, Trey last year 1471 01:21:17,240 --> 01:21:19,559 Speaker 4: averaged twenty points six points a game that was top 1472 01:21:19,600 --> 01:21:23,160 Speaker 4: ten in the country. He's down to thirteen points a 1473 01:21:23,160 --> 01:21:26,120 Speaker 4: game this year. The reason Purdue has another viable option 1474 01:21:26,200 --> 01:21:28,320 Speaker 4: in the low post, actually two of them, and Jacobson 1475 01:21:28,360 --> 01:21:31,960 Speaker 4: and Kluff. So last year when Purdue through the ball inside, 1476 01:21:31,960 --> 01:21:33,519 Speaker 4: they were throwing it to one guy. Let's all be 1477 01:21:33,640 --> 01:21:36,320 Speaker 4: very quite host throwing it to one guy, Trey Kaufman Wrenn. 1478 01:21:36,360 --> 01:21:36,640 Speaker 7: That's it. 1479 01:21:37,200 --> 01:21:39,200 Speaker 4: Now you have three guys that you feel comfortable throwing 1480 01:21:39,200 --> 01:21:40,960 Speaker 4: the ball to in the low cost. The other thing 1481 01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:43,559 Speaker 4: that's really helped Trey with is is rebounding. You know, 1482 01:21:43,800 --> 01:21:46,280 Speaker 4: last year, Trey always had to go against the bigger 1483 01:21:46,680 --> 01:21:50,639 Speaker 4: centers in the league, so his rebounding numbers weren't great 1484 01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:52,680 Speaker 4: six and a half or so a game. This year, 1485 01:21:52,720 --> 01:21:54,680 Speaker 4: there you know, he's a ten point four rebounds a game, 1486 01:21:54,680 --> 01:21:56,880 Speaker 4: which is top ten in the country, mainly because now 1487 01:21:56,920 --> 01:21:59,120 Speaker 4: he gets to rebounding against guys his size. The other 1488 01:21:59,160 --> 01:22:02,840 Speaker 4: four is the other power forward, So it's really helped 1489 01:22:02,880 --> 01:22:05,000 Speaker 4: Trey's game. Again, if you're just looking across the board 1490 01:22:05,080 --> 01:22:08,760 Speaker 4: statistically and you look at points only, you're like, yeah, 1491 01:22:09,080 --> 01:22:10,680 Speaker 4: is Trey taking a step back. I don't think he's 1492 01:22:10,680 --> 01:22:13,280 Speaker 4: saying a step back at all. He's actually flourished from 1493 01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:15,080 Speaker 4: the fact that now he has a guy down there 1494 01:22:15,120 --> 01:22:18,439 Speaker 4: on Oscar Cluff And look, this is not Zach Edy. Like, Okay, 1495 01:22:18,680 --> 01:22:21,519 Speaker 4: I don't want to I think I made a mistake 1496 01:22:21,560 --> 01:22:23,600 Speaker 4: earlier talking to some posts. I said, oh, you know, 1497 01:22:24,200 --> 01:22:26,320 Speaker 4: you know Zach Edy. It was similar numbers when Zach 1498 01:22:26,479 --> 01:22:29,280 Speaker 4: Edy was playing per Tray. No, Oscar Cluff is not 1499 01:22:29,400 --> 01:22:32,599 Speaker 4: Zach Edy. Making no mistake about that. However, there are 1500 01:22:32,720 --> 01:22:35,320 Speaker 4: enough similarities there that have at least allows Trey to 1501 01:22:35,360 --> 01:22:38,759 Speaker 4: play his own natural position and really relish in that position. 1502 01:22:38,920 --> 01:22:42,559 Speaker 4: So yeah, well the scoring numbers might be down, I 1503 01:22:42,600 --> 01:22:44,280 Speaker 4: think as a whole, if you're just looking at the 1504 01:22:44,280 --> 01:22:46,479 Speaker 4: team as a whole, it's actually been better for this 1505 01:22:46,520 --> 01:22:48,439 Speaker 4: whole team. And Trey Kaufman ran himself. 1506 01:22:48,680 --> 01:22:52,679 Speaker 1: I just think Trey Kaufman wran this year, Caleb first 1507 01:22:52,800 --> 01:22:57,600 Speaker 1: before him. If you are a fan of college basketball, 1508 01:22:58,240 --> 01:23:02,599 Speaker 1: if you were a fan of doing things the right way. 1509 01:23:03,240 --> 01:23:08,040 Speaker 1: If you are a fan of selflessness and team concept 1510 01:23:08,360 --> 01:23:11,200 Speaker 1: in what has become fewer, and if you're a fan 1511 01:23:11,280 --> 01:23:13,840 Speaker 1: of Indiana football and you like the fact that it 1512 01:23:13,920 --> 01:23:16,920 Speaker 1: is players that are doing what their coach needs as 1513 01:23:16,960 --> 01:23:20,519 Speaker 1: opposed to what their resume needs, then you should be 1514 01:23:20,520 --> 01:23:23,240 Speaker 1: a fan of pretty basketball because Trey Kaffman wren and 1515 01:23:23,240 --> 01:23:26,479 Speaker 1: that sacrifice of yeah, I'm going to lose forty percent 1516 01:23:26,520 --> 01:23:28,719 Speaker 1: of my scoring, but it's what's best for my team. 1517 01:23:28,800 --> 01:23:31,200 Speaker 1: Caleb First, Yeah, I'm going to go from being a starter, 1518 01:23:31,360 --> 01:23:33,200 Speaker 1: but I'm going to go to med school and I'm 1519 01:23:33,200 --> 01:23:35,120 Speaker 1: going to do what needs to be done. It's what's 1520 01:23:35,200 --> 01:23:38,280 Speaker 1: best for my team. And these guys coming back and 1521 01:23:38,320 --> 01:23:42,040 Speaker 1: sticking with it, Rob, I just think it is a 1522 01:23:42,400 --> 01:23:47,120 Speaker 1: blueprint in college basketball that literally everybody in this country 1523 01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:50,360 Speaker 1: that likes sports should admire. And I think that that 1524 01:23:50,640 --> 01:23:53,240 Speaker 1: absolutely exemplifies it well. 1525 01:23:53,240 --> 01:23:55,200 Speaker 4: And I love to tell a story of Trey Common Wrenn. 1526 01:23:55,200 --> 01:23:57,080 Speaker 4: The reason he's a fifty of your players because he 1527 01:23:57,160 --> 01:23:59,200 Speaker 4: voluntarily took a red shirt as a freshman. 1528 01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:00,760 Speaker 6: I mean, think about that. 1529 01:24:00,800 --> 01:24:02,880 Speaker 4: He was the Gatorade Player of the Year in the 1530 01:24:02,880 --> 01:24:05,439 Speaker 4: state of Indiana. Okay, we're not We're not talking about 1531 01:24:05,479 --> 01:24:08,679 Speaker 4: you know, Hawaii, no offense to Hawaii high school bass. 1532 01:24:09,400 --> 01:24:11,120 Speaker 6: We're talking to Indiana, dude. 1533 01:24:11,479 --> 01:24:14,920 Speaker 4: And he voluntarily took a red shirt because he knew 1534 01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:17,200 Speaker 4: it would be best for his for his long term 1535 01:24:17,680 --> 01:24:20,720 Speaker 4: career as a college player. So yeah, that's a guy 1536 01:24:20,760 --> 01:24:21,639 Speaker 4: that has it all together. 1537 01:24:21,680 --> 01:24:22,479 Speaker 6: And I'm with you, man. 1538 01:24:22,720 --> 01:24:28,200 Speaker 4: I watched that Heisman acceptance speech from Fernando Mendoza, and 1539 01:24:28,240 --> 01:24:30,320 Speaker 4: I was like, Rodert, What a great dude, What an 1540 01:24:30,320 --> 01:24:34,200 Speaker 4: absolutely great not only college athlete, but just great human beings. 1541 01:24:34,240 --> 01:24:35,479 Speaker 1: Just ambassador, right. 1542 01:24:36,120 --> 01:24:39,719 Speaker 4: Absolutely, what a great ambassador for Indiana University. 1543 01:24:39,720 --> 01:24:40,760 Speaker 6: Forget the football part. 1544 01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:43,880 Speaker 4: Uh, but Trey very similar for Purdue. And you know 1545 01:24:43,960 --> 01:24:47,000 Speaker 4: you mentioned Caleb first and others. Yes, isn't it refreshing 1546 01:24:47,160 --> 01:24:47,679 Speaker 4: as a fan? 1547 01:24:48,479 --> 01:24:48,599 Speaker 10: Uh? 1548 01:24:48,800 --> 01:24:51,799 Speaker 4: To see these young people that put the team first, 1549 01:24:52,280 --> 01:24:55,760 Speaker 4: the team goals ahead of their individual accolades, and then 1550 01:24:56,479 --> 01:24:59,080 Speaker 4: and they're smart enough to know. Obviously, I don't can't 1551 01:24:59,120 --> 01:25:01,360 Speaker 4: speak for Mendoza, and I can't speak for Craik coffin Rin, 1552 01:25:01,360 --> 01:25:02,800 Speaker 4: but I can only assume they're smart enough to know 1553 01:25:03,200 --> 01:25:05,360 Speaker 4: if I'm on a really really good team, right, and 1554 01:25:05,400 --> 01:25:07,840 Speaker 4: I'm a really really good player, I'm going to get. 1555 01:25:07,720 --> 01:25:09,479 Speaker 1: My I'm gonna get my shot right Yeah. 1556 01:25:09,720 --> 01:25:11,840 Speaker 6: Absolutely, that's all it comes down to.

You know, I was thinking about 1593 01:26:46,160 --> 01:26:48,920 Speaker 1: that earlier. We need to start designating some new titles 1594 01:26:48,920 --> 01:26:51,679 Speaker 1: for people in the new year, right, and we need 1595 01:26:51,720 --> 01:26:53,160 Speaker 1: them to record themselves like that. 1596 01:26:53,880 --> 01:26:54,880 Speaker 3: What'll we do with Paul there? 1597 01:26:55,920 --> 01:26:58,720 Speaker 1: You know, Paul actually sounds right there like maybe he 1598 01:26:58,760 --> 01:27:01,000 Speaker 1: had called in yesterday when we were getting the heal it. 1599 01:27:01,040 --> 01:27:05,760 Speaker 1: But that's Paul's natural giddy voice, it is. I was 1600 01:27:05,800 --> 01:27:08,560 Speaker 1: asked a fascinating question earlier today. 1601 01:27:08,439 --> 01:27:10,400 Speaker 3: By who who asked you the question? 1602 01:27:10,600 --> 01:27:14,320 Speaker 1: A listener texted me, we have listeners at like six 1603 01:27:14,840 --> 01:27:18,160 Speaker 1: three one, seven, five two three ninety two eighty eight 1604 01:27:19,360 --> 01:27:20,280 Speaker 1: is my cell phone number? 1605 01:27:20,360 --> 01:27:20,479 Speaker 6: You know? 1606 01:27:20,520 --> 01:27:22,040 Speaker 1: Every once in a while, I just say, can we 1607 01:27:22,080 --> 01:27:23,519 Speaker 1: do a roll call and see if there are people 1608 01:27:23,640 --> 01:27:25,439 Speaker 1: because it is a Friday, and it's a nice day 1609 01:27:25,439 --> 01:27:27,680 Speaker 1: outside and people are getting set for the could be 1610 01:27:27,760 --> 01:27:31,120 Speaker 1: Christmas shopping, odd week at Christmas shopping for that. 1611 01:27:31,280 --> 01:27:33,160 Speaker 5: So if you just tuned in, make sure you download 1612 01:27:33,160 --> 01:27:36,160 Speaker 5: the podcast leader for our conversation with or Najoel Ayoks 1613 01:27:36,200 --> 01:27:39,000 Speaker 5: And that was yesterday earlier in the week. But Zach Ostman, 1614 01:27:39,120 --> 01:27:43,840 Speaker 5: Osterman and Rob BLACKMN so to come, Kevin Bone top 1615 01:27:43,840 --> 01:27:44,320 Speaker 5: of the hour. 1616 01:27:44,800 --> 01:27:47,160 Speaker 1: H again five to two, three ninety two eighty eight. 1617 01:27:47,160 --> 01:27:48,920 Speaker 1: If you want to give me a roll call shout, 1618 01:27:48,920 --> 01:27:52,320 Speaker 1: that's cool. But this is a really good question that 1619 01:27:52,439 --> 01:27:57,559 Speaker 1: was posed to me. Hey Jake, in listening to the 1620 01:27:57,600 --> 01:28:02,240 Speaker 1: conversation about Anthony Richardson and his vision possibly being impaired, 1621 01:28:02,360 --> 01:28:06,000 Speaker 1: my question is is there any discussion about a possible 1622 01:28:06,080 --> 01:28:10,880 Speaker 1: lawsuit on his behalf against the rubber band company. I'm 1623 01:28:10,880 --> 01:28:13,679 Speaker 1: thinking this was a freak accident that could potentially cost 1624 01:28:13,760 --> 01:28:19,879 Speaker 1: him millions. I am not a person necessarily of litigation, 1625 01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:24,120 Speaker 1: although I do have locked and loaded here my letter 1626 01:28:24,200 --> 01:28:26,800 Speaker 1: that several letters going out and getting ready for the 1627 01:28:26,840 --> 01:28:33,559 Speaker 1: Why not Indiana infringement by the way, but the it 1628 01:28:34,479 --> 01:28:38,080 Speaker 1: created in my mind, My memory went back to this, 1629 01:28:38,400 --> 01:28:42,640 Speaker 1: and I don't think that they are connected, but it 1630 01:28:42,720 --> 01:28:45,360 Speaker 1: is to me, it was like this epiphany I had 1631 01:28:48,320 --> 01:28:51,800 Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson to this point of his career as a 1632 01:28:51,840 --> 01:28:58,080 Speaker 1: cult is the Jonathan Bender of the Colts. Jonathan Bender 1633 01:28:59,560 --> 01:29:05,000 Speaker 1: a play that the Pacers. Of course, going into the 1634 01:29:05,040 --> 01:29:10,439 Speaker 1: two thousand season, they traded Antonio Davis. Antonio Davis had 1635 01:29:10,479 --> 01:29:13,160 Speaker 1: gone in to Donnie Walsh. He had told them of 1636 01:29:13,200 --> 01:29:20,120 Speaker 1: his desire to start, and Donnie always whenever a player 1637 01:29:20,160 --> 01:29:23,320 Speaker 1: would request a trade, Donnie would try to facilitate it. 1638 01:29:23,400 --> 01:29:29,200 Speaker 1: And Donnie also had a policy that before trading any player, 1639 01:29:29,320 --> 01:29:32,400 Speaker 1: he would bring that player in to let him know 1640 01:29:32,479 --> 01:29:35,040 Speaker 1: that he was in discussion to be traded. The only 1641 01:29:35,120 --> 01:29:37,360 Speaker 1: player he did not do that for was Jalen Rose, 1642 01:29:37,400 --> 01:29:39,720 Speaker 1: and I know that Donnie Walsh has always regretted that. 1643 01:29:41,200 --> 01:29:44,799 Speaker 1: But and Jalen Rose was part of a trade with 1644 01:29:45,280 --> 01:29:48,720 Speaker 1: a higher number of players. Travis Best was involved with that, 1645 01:29:48,840 --> 01:29:51,240 Speaker 1: and then they brought back Brad Miller, Ron Mercer, Kevin 1646 01:29:51,280 --> 01:29:59,040 Speaker 1: Ollie and run our test. But the Antonio Davis trade, 1647 01:29:59,320 --> 01:30:01,759 Speaker 1: when they trade him, they traded him for the draft 1648 01:30:01,840 --> 01:30:06,479 Speaker 1: rights to Jonathan Bender, who Toronto had selected and Bender 1649 01:30:06,560 --> 01:30:09,679 Speaker 1: and when I say this, people laugh at me every time. 1650 01:30:10,920 --> 01:30:13,800 Speaker 1: The Pacers made that trade for Jonathan Bender. A because 1651 01:30:13,840 --> 01:30:15,479 Speaker 1: at that time they had a roster that was not 1652 01:30:15,600 --> 01:30:20,920 Speaker 1: in need of immediate influx. And b they saw Jonathan 1653 01:30:20,920 --> 01:30:24,080 Speaker 1: Bender as a Kevin Durant type player. And this was 1654 01:30:24,160 --> 01:30:31,800 Speaker 1: before Kevin Durant, But as they envisioned basketball becoming increasingly positionless, 1655 01:30:32,320 --> 01:30:34,920 Speaker 1: they saw Jonathan Bender as one that could play virtually 1656 01:30:35,000 --> 01:30:40,519 Speaker 1: any position and they were fascinated by his skill set 1657 01:30:40,560 --> 01:30:46,360 Speaker 1: and his versatility and his range at his size. Jonathan 1658 01:30:46,439 --> 01:30:52,240 Speaker 1: Bender was star crossed in his career by knee issues 1659 01:30:52,400 --> 01:30:55,599 Speaker 1: and consistent injuries that would pop up to the point 1660 01:30:55,640 --> 01:30:58,640 Speaker 1: where people got frustrated and started labeling him as a 1661 01:30:58,680 --> 01:31:04,639 Speaker 1: bust because it just never got footing here. And Anthony 1662 01:31:04,720 --> 01:31:07,880 Speaker 1: Richardson from the time that he has been here has 1663 01:31:08,040 --> 01:31:12,800 Speaker 1: been indeed kind of made of glass, and the consistency 1664 01:31:12,920 --> 01:31:16,280 Speaker 1: of injury has prohibited him from being able to totally 1665 01:31:16,320 --> 01:31:19,840 Speaker 1: show what he could do. But he was drafted here 1666 01:31:20,120 --> 01:31:23,680 Speaker 1: inside the top five because of the physical gifts and 1667 01:31:23,800 --> 01:31:28,439 Speaker 1: attributes about him that were so intriguing and still are 1668 01:31:30,720 --> 01:31:34,800 Speaker 1: and it was not in a Jonathan Bender was a 1669 01:31:34,840 --> 01:31:37,320 Speaker 1: short window of time. He was in Peaky in Mississippi. 1670 01:31:37,320 --> 01:31:38,840 Speaker 1: He was not a big time recruit. And then he 1671 01:31:38,840 --> 01:31:41,000 Speaker 1: has a McDonald's All American Game where he sets the 1672 01:31:41,040 --> 01:31:44,280 Speaker 1: record for points in a McDonald's All American Game. And 1673 01:31:44,360 --> 01:31:46,320 Speaker 1: he had grown to all of a sudden being this 1674 01:31:46,400 --> 01:31:49,320 Speaker 1: freak seven footer that played like he was six'. Five 1675 01:31:49,960 --> 01:31:53,280 Speaker 1: And Anthony richardson was not a household. Name he was 1676 01:31:53,320 --> 01:31:56,760 Speaker 1: a late developer that all of a sudden became essentially 1677 01:31:56,800 --> 01:31:59,760 Speaker 1: This adonnis that played a limited number of games at, 1678 01:31:59,760 --> 01:32:06,439 Speaker 1: four but the imagination of what it could be was so. 1679 01:32:06,680 --> 01:32:10,200 Speaker 1: Intriguing Jonathan bender's career came to an end because of 1680 01:32:10,200 --> 01:32:14,000 Speaker 1: an arthritis in his knees that was attributed to as 1681 01:32:14,040 --> 01:32:18,760 Speaker 1: a kid jumping off of the roofs of houses from 1682 01:32:18,800 --> 01:32:21,560 Speaker 1: one to the next and climbing trees and jumping out of. 1683 01:32:21,600 --> 01:32:23,880 Speaker 1: Them AND i was once In Picky you In mississippi 1684 01:32:23,880 --> 01:32:25,679 Speaker 1: and met up with his high school coach who drove 1685 01:32:25,680 --> 01:32:28,320 Speaker 1: me around and, said, yeah those stories were absolutely. True 1686 01:32:29,040 --> 01:32:33,040 Speaker 1: but When Jonathan bender was retired from THE nba from 1687 01:32:33,120 --> 01:32:38,360 Speaker 1: The pacers after a literally a medical settlement for the 1688 01:32:38,400 --> 01:32:45,800 Speaker 1: pacers from THE. Nba he himself developed a knee strengthening 1689 01:32:45,840 --> 01:32:51,120 Speaker 1: device using a rubber, band and he used household devices 1690 01:32:51,200 --> 01:32:54,240 Speaker 1: that still to this. Day Jonathan bender not only did 1691 01:32:54,280 --> 01:32:58,240 Speaker 1: it allow him to recapture his career and sign With 1692 01:32:58,360 --> 01:33:01,080 Speaker 1: New york and play for the next at the end 1693 01:33:01,080 --> 01:33:04,000 Speaker 1: of his career once his knee had by his own, 1694 01:33:04,240 --> 01:33:08,320 Speaker 1: fruition repaired, itself but it was because of a device 1695 01:33:08,439 --> 01:33:11,840 Speaker 1: of a rubber stretch band that he was able to do. 1696 01:33:11,920 --> 01:33:15,360 Speaker 1: That AND i don't, KNOW i don't believe that that 1697 01:33:15,520 --> 01:33:18,080 Speaker 1: is the company That Anthony richardson was. USING i Think 1698 01:33:18,160 --> 01:33:23,240 Speaker 1: richardson was using not an altogether one piece, thing but 1699 01:33:23,400 --> 01:33:28,200 Speaker 1: simply was rather using a rubber band around an otherwise stationary. 1700 01:33:28,240 --> 01:33:31,680 Speaker 1: DEVICE i think that's what. Happened but will there be 1701 01:33:31,720 --> 01:33:36,240 Speaker 1: a lawsuit against that, BAND i don't, Know BUT i 1702 01:33:36,320 --> 01:33:39,040 Speaker 1: did think it was interesting that in thinking about the 1703 01:33:39,080 --> 01:33:43,120 Speaker 1: parallels between those two, players one of which would have 1704 01:33:43,200 --> 01:33:48,160 Speaker 1: had the rubber band device that he essentially invented that 1705 01:33:48,880 --> 01:33:52,680 Speaker 1: jump started or rejumped his, career and the other of 1706 01:33:52,720 --> 01:33:58,400 Speaker 1: which had a freak accident of one of those kinds 1707 01:33:58,479 --> 01:34:03,679 Speaker 1: of devices or idea is that potentially now has stalled 1708 01:34:03,680 --> 01:34:06,519 Speaker 1: his career and we'll see whether or not he comes. 1709 01:34:06,560 --> 01:34:09,759 Speaker 1: Back the discussion about his vision and what the vision 1710 01:34:09,800 --> 01:34:12,360 Speaker 1: might be For Anthony richardson was a big topic.

Reactions it felt to 1731 01:35:29,280 --> 01:35:33,559 Speaker 1: me like there were mixed messages between AND i don't 1732 01:35:33,600 --> 01:35:37,479 Speaker 1: mean that maliciously Between Shane stikeen And Anthony richardson as 1733 01:35:37,520 --> 01:35:41,639 Speaker 1: to the severity of the eye injury For Anthony richardson 1734 01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:46,439 Speaker 1: and the vision moving forward your thoughts by being there 1735 01:35:46,600 --> 01:35:47,360 Speaker 1: front and center for. 1736 01:35:47,439 --> 01:35:50,400 Speaker 9: It, yeah AND i think there's definitely been times where 1737 01:35:50,960 --> 01:35:53,920 Speaker 9: in pertuiar With. Richardson you, know sometimes you, know maybe 1738 01:35:53,920 --> 01:35:55,800 Speaker 9: What shane has said or what the organization has said 1739 01:35:55,840 --> 01:36:00,519 Speaker 9: is not necessarily been either heard By richardson or or you, know, 1740 01:36:00,560 --> 01:36:03,680 Speaker 9: again maybe it sounds a little different to. HIM i 1741 01:36:04,040 --> 01:36:06,840 Speaker 9: probably walked away from yesterday as more just player downplaying, 1742 01:36:06,960 --> 01:36:11,400 Speaker 9: injury which happens in every.

Him 1785 01:38:05,760 --> 01:38:08,200 Speaker 1: or do we? Know the reason? Why is because somebody 1786 01:38:08,280 --> 01:38:11,600 Speaker 1: had asked me if there was a manufacturer or malfunction 1787 01:38:12,160 --> 01:38:14,120 Speaker 1: that could be responsible for, this and then you get 1788 01:38:14,160 --> 01:38:16,559 Speaker 1: into a whole other, area which sounds, ludicrous but at 1789 01:38:16,560 --> 01:38:18,080 Speaker 1: the same TIME i thought was a fair. Question. 1790 01:38:19,240 --> 01:38:21,000 Speaker 12: YEAH i, mean he tried to explain it. 1791 01:38:21,120 --> 01:38:25,280 Speaker 9: YESTERDAY i don't believe it is the elastic band. ITSELF 1792 01:38:25,360 --> 01:38:28,519 Speaker 9: i believe that it's part affiliated with, it some sort 1793 01:38:28,520 --> 01:38:32,479 Speaker 9: of whatever bar. Mechanism, AGAIN i don't know that. 1794 01:38:32,720 --> 01:38:35,320 Speaker 12: For, sure but that is my assumption with. 1795 01:38:35,360 --> 01:38:36,639 Speaker 1: That so it was all one. 1796 01:38:36,720 --> 01:38:40,280 Speaker 9: Contraption, YEAH i, MEAN i don't know if he a blastic, 1797 01:38:40,360 --> 01:38:43,040 Speaker 9: band you, know whatever goes on the, bar or you 1798 01:38:43,080 --> 01:38:46,320 Speaker 9: know how exactly that. Works BUT i believe that is 1799 01:38:46,320 --> 01:38:48,519 Speaker 9: the part that, broke that caused the orbital, fracture which 1800 01:38:48,560 --> 01:38:50,960 Speaker 9: caused the trauma in the, eye and which caused the you, 1801 01:38:51,000 --> 01:38:52,760 Speaker 9: KNOW i think there was a real period there where 1802 01:38:52,800 --> 01:38:56,040 Speaker 9: they thought potentially he could lose his. Vision and you, 1803 01:38:56,040 --> 01:38:58,320 Speaker 9: know if Everything i've, gathered it's rather unprecedented for a 1804 01:38:58,360 --> 01:39:00,680 Speaker 9: quarterback to be dealing with and thing like. THIS i, 1805 01:39:00,680 --> 01:39:04,240 Speaker 9: mean you could say many, athletes but in particularly a. 1806 01:39:05,360 --> 01:39:08,400 Speaker 9: QUARTERBACK i guess if you're looking for a little bit of, 1807 01:39:08,400 --> 01:39:11,719 Speaker 9: optimism it is the right. Eye so for the right handed, 1808 01:39:11,800 --> 01:39:14,280 Speaker 9: QUARTERBACK i think you'd probably if you had obviously it's 1809 01:39:14,280 --> 01:39:17,439 Speaker 9: not ideal for, either but you, know blind sidewise would 1810 01:39:17,439 --> 01:39:19,840 Speaker 9: be more of your left eye kind of looking over that. 1811 01:39:20,080 --> 01:39:22,320 Speaker 3: Shoulder so you. 1812 01:39:22,360 --> 01:39:26,679 Speaker 9: Know but, again this is a very gruesome and quite 1813 01:39:26,680 --> 01:39:29,400 Speaker 9: the ugly scene when it all unfold the, form and 1814 01:39:29,720 --> 01:39:31,439 Speaker 9: like he said, yesterday you, know there's a point in 1815 01:39:31,479 --> 01:39:33,240 Speaker 9: time early in the recovery. 1816 01:39:32,760 --> 01:39:34,400 Speaker 12: Process which is now two months. 1817 01:39:34,120 --> 01:39:37,880 Speaker 9: Plus that he thought TODAY i yesterday wouldn't have been, 1818 01:39:37,920 --> 01:39:42,080 Speaker 9: possible like him even practicing this, season so clearly he 1819 01:39:42,120 --> 01:39:45,439 Speaker 9: has made enough progress with his vision that he is 1820 01:39:45,600 --> 01:39:46,120 Speaker 9: able to do. 1821 01:39:46,160 --> 01:39:51,000 Speaker 1: That to, Me Kevin, bowen the easy answer is, This 1822 01:39:51,560 --> 01:39:53,800 Speaker 1: AND i know that there's still football to be played this, 1823 01:39:53,920 --> 01:39:59,120 Speaker 1: year but it seems almost a foregone conclusion now that 1824 01:39:59,240 --> 01:40:03,160 Speaker 1: you simply frame Franchise Daniel, Jones you tag, Him you 1825 01:40:03,160 --> 01:40:05,360 Speaker 1: get him for one more year so that you can 1826 01:40:05,479 --> 01:40:10,519 Speaker 1: see where he is without having commitment beyond that. Year 1827 01:40:10,520 --> 01:40:11,880 Speaker 1: in other, words you don't sign him right out of 1828 01:40:11,880 --> 01:40:13,960 Speaker 1: a four year, deal which they may have been on 1829 01:40:14,000 --> 01:40:17,200 Speaker 1: the collision course towards doing or the inevitability towards doing 1830 01:40:17,200 --> 01:40:20,000 Speaker 1: Before jones got. Hurt so now you franchise tag him 1831 01:40:20,120 --> 01:40:22,240 Speaker 1: and you just see where you, are and maybe you 1832 01:40:22,320 --> 01:40:25,160 Speaker 1: have someone else that takes over for the first couple 1833 01:40:25,240 --> 01:40:27,840 Speaker 1: of games before he then gets back out onto the. 1834 01:40:27,880 --> 01:40:31,080 Speaker 1: Field in playing, circumstance talking about next, year you think 1835 01:40:31,120 --> 01:40:31,639 Speaker 1: that's a fair. 1836 01:40:31,680 --> 01:40:37,640 Speaker 9: Assessment, well that's an expensive you, know franchise tag If 1837 01:40:37,720 --> 01:40:40,000 Speaker 9: Daniel jones isn't going to.

Teams you great, Environment, yeah. 1920 01:44:09,760 --> 01:44:12,479 Speaker 1: Definitely because you have to the REASON i bring that 1921 01:44:12,600 --> 01:44:17,160 Speaker 1: up if you Are Chris, ballard it had to actually 1922 01:44:17,160 --> 01:44:19,360 Speaker 1: make you feel pretty good to an, extent BECAUSE i 1923 01:44:19,360 --> 01:44:21,120 Speaker 1: know they didn't beat The, RAMS i get, it BUT 1924 01:44:21,200 --> 01:44:23,439 Speaker 1: i think The rams may well be the best team 1925 01:44:23,479 --> 01:44:27,400 Speaker 1: in the. League and you also have A seattle team 1926 01:44:27,479 --> 01:44:32,559 Speaker 1: that you, Know darnald represents to an extent what A 1927 01:44:32,680 --> 01:44:35,800 Speaker 1: Daniel jones could, be Because darnald is a guy that 1928 01:44:35,920 --> 01:44:39,080 Speaker 1: was written off by several, places including obviously in the 1929 01:44:39,120 --> 01:44:42,040 Speaker 1: same spot As Daniel jones a year, ago and yet 1930 01:44:42,200 --> 01:44:45,639 Speaker 1: once you built around, him he last, NIGHT i thought 1931 01:44:45,640 --> 01:44:47,720 Speaker 1: he showed a lot of pocket presence late in that. 1932 01:44:47,800 --> 01:44:50,960 Speaker 1: Game Daniel jones post That eddie had mentioned was thank 1933 01:44:51,000 --> 01:44:54,000 Speaker 1: you to my, teammates, coaches The colts, organization and all 1934 01:44:54,040 --> 01:44:57,040 Speaker 1: the fans for the overwhelming. Support tough way to end this, 1935 01:44:57,080 --> 01:44:58,800 Speaker 1: season but it has been an honor to wear the 1936 01:44:58,800 --> 01:45:01,880 Speaker 1: horseshoe and play for The. Colts i'll mislighting up with my, 1937 01:45:01,920 --> 01:45:04,280 Speaker 1: guys But i'll be riding with them every step of the. 1938 01:45:04,320 --> 01:45:07,000 Speaker 1: Way Go. Colts so that sounds like a guy that 1939 01:45:07,040 --> 01:45:10,160 Speaker 1: would be open to coming. Back but last NIGHT i 1940 01:45:10,240 --> 01:45:14,040 Speaker 1: just thought that the darnled, situation combined with the rams 1941 01:45:14,360 --> 01:45:17,519 Speaker 1: and the way that they, looked both of those things 1942 01:45:17,720 --> 01:45:21,320 Speaker 1: have to Give Chris ballard some good feeling moving. Forward 1943 01:45:21,680 --> 01:45:26,720 Speaker 1: question is does that optimism way over and carry over 1944 01:45:26,920 --> 01:45:30,800 Speaker 1: into his boss and the ownership that he has them 1945 01:45:30,800 --> 01:45:32,760 Speaker 1: going in the right direction and should be there next. 1946 01:45:32,840 --> 01:45:38,880 Speaker 9: Year, YEAH i think it's obviously a great, question and you, 1947 01:45:38,920 --> 01:45:40,639 Speaker 9: KNOW i know it probably sounds like a cop, out 1948 01:45:40,640 --> 01:45:42,800 Speaker 9: BUT i think With Carli Orsay, gordon the first answer to, 1949 01:45:42,880 --> 01:45:44,599 Speaker 9: be we just don't. KNOW i, mean it's no past 1950 01:45:44,640 --> 01:45:48,439 Speaker 9: precedent with her to you, know kind of judge other 1951 01:45:48,479 --> 01:45:51,240 Speaker 9: decisions off that you might have with athletic directors or 1952 01:45:51,240 --> 01:45:54,599 Speaker 9: owners or you, know people that are in those sorts 1953 01:45:54,600 --> 01:45:58,680 Speaker 9: of authoritative. Roles, NOW i think when they made a 1954 01:45:58,680 --> 01:46:01,640 Speaker 9: trade For, Saft. Gardner every indication, was, well, yeah you 1955 01:46:01,640 --> 01:46:03,360 Speaker 9: don't do that if you don't think everybody's going to be. 1956 01:46:03,400 --> 01:46:06,200 Speaker 9: Back but you, know if you had told me at 1957 01:46:06,200 --> 01:46:09,120 Speaker 9: the start of the year, that assuming this trend, continues 1958 01:46:09,200 --> 01:46:13,760 Speaker 9: The colts would miss the, PLAYOFFS i would not have 1959 01:46:13,840 --> 01:46:16,599 Speaker 9: thought to myself that you would then just run it all. 1960 01:46:16,640 --> 01:46:19,320 Speaker 9: Back and it's not like the quarterback position has been. 1961 01:46:19,640 --> 01:46:22,519 Speaker 9: SOLVED i, mean, Yes Daniel jones played you, know two 1962 01:46:22,680 --> 01:46:26,280 Speaker 9: very good months of. Football but, unfortunately you, know the 1963 01:46:26,280 --> 01:46:28,680 Speaker 9: most consistent thing That Daniel jones' career so far has 1964 01:46:28,720 --> 01:46:30,080 Speaker 9: been season indian, injury. 1965 01:46:30,000 --> 01:46:31,880 Speaker 1: And the breaks were starting to whistle a little bit, 1966 01:46:31,880 --> 01:46:33,720 Speaker 1: there weren't, they you know WHAT i? Mean, LIKE i 1967 01:46:34,160 --> 01:46:36,519 Speaker 1: know that he was really good through eight, games but 1968 01:46:36,600 --> 01:46:39,080 Speaker 1: he was also starting to show some of those things 1969 01:46:39,120 --> 01:46:40,920 Speaker 1: that you, know fans In New york had to be, like, 1970 01:46:41,000 --> 01:46:43,559 Speaker 1: see there's a reason it WAS Tj, Max. 1971 01:46:43,840 --> 01:46:46,680 Speaker 12: Right, Yeah, no that is a that is a good 1972 01:46:46,720 --> 01:46:47,360 Speaker 12: way to put it as. 1973 01:46:47,400 --> 01:46:50,640 Speaker 9: Well so even if you want to ignore that aspect of, 1974 01:46:50,640 --> 01:46:53,120 Speaker 9: it WHICH i don't think necessarily you you. Can but 1975 01:46:53,160 --> 01:46:54,519 Speaker 9: if you want to give him what benefit of the 1976 01:46:54,560 --> 01:46:56,960 Speaker 9: doubt as a, player there's still is a question of 1977 01:46:57,080 --> 01:47:00,800 Speaker 9: just again overall health and making it through a, season 1978 01:47:00,800 --> 01:47:02,800 Speaker 9: a season when he wasn't hit you know very, much 1979 01:47:02,840 --> 01:47:04,320 Speaker 9: and all. 1980 01:47:04,600 --> 01:47:05,200 Speaker 12: All of those. 1981 01:47:05,240 --> 01:47:05,800 Speaker 6: Things so. 1982 01:47:07,360 --> 01:47:09,200 Speaker 9: You, know this is WHERE i just get really torn 1983 01:47:09,240 --> 01:47:10,800 Speaker 9: on it because The gardner trade. 1984 01:47:10,560 --> 01:47:11,360 Speaker 12: Is obvious to. 1985 01:47:11,400 --> 01:47:13,840 Speaker 9: Me it's, like, WAIT i, mean, yeah everybody's going to be, 1986 01:47:13,920 --> 01:47:17,599 Speaker 9: back BUT i mean if they are to lose and right, 1987 01:47:17,640 --> 01:47:19,680 Speaker 9: now what is it four in a? Row you, know 1988 01:47:19,680 --> 01:47:21,439 Speaker 9: it could be. Seven let's say they win one of 1989 01:47:21,439 --> 01:47:23,120 Speaker 9: the last three but missed the. PLAYOFFS i, mean you 1990 01:47:23,200 --> 01:47:26,439 Speaker 9: lose six of your last seven When Chris ballard arguably 1991 01:47:26,439 --> 01:47:28,880 Speaker 9: the thing he was most vocal about at the end 1992 01:47:28,880 --> 01:47:30,559 Speaker 9: of last season was we have to find a way 1993 01:47:30,600 --> 01:47:33,400 Speaker 9: to win you, know end of season games.

Brushes so the two most powerful predictors 2211 01:58:41,560 --> 01:58:44,280 Speaker 11: of whether you're going to develop a heart attack or, 2212 01:58:44,400 --> 01:58:48,879 Speaker 11: plaque if you started to rank, them number one, Smoking 2213 01:58:49,440 --> 01:58:52,760 Speaker 11: so that's why when you see the doctor and you 2214 01:58:52,800 --> 01:58:55,800 Speaker 11: say you're a, smoker there's a long conversation about. It 2215 01:58:55,880 --> 01:58:58,880 Speaker 11: everybody knows it's an, addiction but it really is the 2216 01:58:58,960 --> 01:59:02,520 Speaker 11: number one reason why patients go on to develop stroke 2217 01:59:02,600 --> 01:59:06,160 Speaker 11: and heart. Attack so that is really where you want. 2218 01:59:06,000 --> 01:59:08,480 Speaker 7: To focus your. Energies the second. 2219 01:59:08,160 --> 01:59:12,000 Speaker 11: Most powerful predictor of whether you're going to develop plaque is, 2220 01:59:12,080 --> 01:59:15,600 Speaker 11: diabetes and the worst the, diabetes the higher the, risk 2221 01:59:16,240 --> 01:59:20,880 Speaker 11: and diabetes is really a. Spectrum and people even sometimes say, that, 2222 01:59:20,960 --> 01:59:25,040 Speaker 11: Oh i'm pre, Diabetic i'm. Fine, no, unfortunately not so 2223 01:59:25,240 --> 01:59:29,120 Speaker 11: pre diabetes is you, KNOW i think like, this like 2224 01:59:29,120 --> 01:59:32,960 Speaker 11: to think of it as like diabetes stage. Zero it's 2225 01:59:33,000 --> 01:59:37,800 Speaker 11: still conveying some amount of cardiovask their. Risk the cholesterol 2226 01:59:37,920 --> 01:59:43,640 Speaker 11: gets kind of changed and, stickier and pre. Diabetes so metabolic, 2227 01:59:43,760 --> 01:59:48,839 Speaker 11: health which is this continuum from pre diabetes and insulin 2228 01:59:48,840 --> 01:59:52,440 Speaker 11: resistance all the way to, diabetes is a risk. Factor 2229 01:59:52,600 --> 01:59:56,120 Speaker 11: so you, know if you have a lot of visceral, 2230 01:59:56,200 --> 01:59:59,240 Speaker 11: fat there's two different types of. Fat there's fat that's, 2231 02:00:00,080 --> 02:00:03,480 Speaker 11: uh you, know in your, skin okay and outside your. 2232 02:00:03,520 --> 02:00:05,880 Speaker 11: Body you, know we call that subcutaneous. 2233 02:00:05,920 --> 02:00:06,240 Speaker 7: Fat. 2234 02:00:06,840 --> 02:00:09,680 Speaker 11: Uh and then there's visceral. Fat visceral fat's the fat 2235 02:00:09,720 --> 02:00:12,520 Speaker 11: that's inside your. Belly it's what gives, you you, know 2236 02:00:12,560 --> 02:00:15,960 Speaker 11: the beer belly or big. Abdomen that's the fat that's 2237 02:00:15,960 --> 02:00:19,440 Speaker 11: around your. Organs and that stuff's like. Kryptonite that's, awful. 2238 02:00:20,080 --> 02:00:25,760 Speaker 11: Uh that is metabolically active and, flammatory uh and increases 2239 02:00:25,800 --> 02:00:28,960 Speaker 11: your risk for high blood, pressure makes your sugar bat 2240 02:00:30,320 --> 02:00:32,720 Speaker 11: even increases your risk for. Cancer if you can believe. 2241 02:00:32,720 --> 02:00:35,400 Speaker 11: It so that's you really don't want to have a 2242 02:00:35,480 --> 02:00:39,280 Speaker 11: whole lot of visceral. Fat high blood, pressure high blood 2243 02:00:39,280 --> 02:00:42,120 Speaker 11: presure is also an awful risk. Factor the WAY i 2244 02:00:42,120 --> 02:00:44,280 Speaker 11: describe it to my, patients it's kind of like a power, 2245 02:00:44,440 --> 02:00:47,320 Speaker 11: washer but power washer in your. Skin it's gonna start 2246 02:00:47,400 --> 02:00:49,880 Speaker 11: to really hurt that, skin make it very irritable and. 2247 02:00:49,920 --> 02:00:53,920 Speaker 11: Injured so high blood pressure creates shear the same shear 2248 02:00:53,960 --> 02:00:55,920 Speaker 11: stresses on the inside of the, lining so that your 2249 02:00:55,920 --> 02:01:00,600 Speaker 11: blood vessel predisposing them to. Damage the next one is. Cholesterol, 2250 02:01:01,240 --> 02:01:06,000 Speaker 11: uh the higher you're, cholesterol you, know the wars off you. 2251 02:01:06,120 --> 02:01:08,800 Speaker 11: Are and it's it's a little bit more complicated than. 2252 02:01:08,800 --> 02:01:08,880 Speaker 9: THAT. 2253 02:01:09,000 --> 02:01:11,280 Speaker 11: I you, KNOW i we don't really have time to 2254 02:01:11,320 --> 02:01:11,760 Speaker 11: go into an. 2255 02:01:11,760 --> 02:01:12,360 Speaker 7: Entire course of. 2256 02:01:12,400 --> 02:01:17,040 Speaker 11: Lipidology but one of the cholesterol components that we CALL 2257 02:01:17,280 --> 02:01:21,680 Speaker 11: l D, l the higher that, number it's, correlated, uh 2258 02:01:22,120 --> 02:01:26,360 Speaker 11: although not directly with you, know some degree of cardiovascular. 2259 02:01:26,480 --> 02:01:31,000 Speaker 11: Risk and this is you NEED l D l or 2260 02:01:32,280 --> 02:01:36,000 Speaker 11: certain types of cholesterol that we call APO b containing 2261 02:01:36,040 --> 02:01:40,160 Speaker 11: compounds to create. Plaque so you, know if you cut 2262 02:01:40,200 --> 02:01:42,640 Speaker 11: down all the bad trees in the, forest you're going 2263 02:01:42,720 --> 02:01:45,880 Speaker 11: to have less risk or forest fire and that's that's you, 2264 02:01:45,920 --> 02:01:47,320 Speaker 11: know and you're you're gonna. 2265 02:01:47,120 --> 02:01:48,560 Speaker 7: Get rid of some of the good trees too. 2266 02:01:48,440 --> 02:01:51,840 Speaker 11: Along along with. It but when somebody has you, know 2267 02:01:51,880 --> 02:01:53,920 Speaker 11: you're you're, saying, HEY i don't want my house to burn. Down, 2268 02:01:54,160 --> 02:01:55,920 Speaker 11: well number, one don't pour gasoline on. 2269 02:01:55,960 --> 02:01:58,240 Speaker 7: It and what's? Gasoline gasolinees is? Smoking? 2270 02:01:58,720 --> 02:02:01,839 Speaker 11: Okay number two is let's get rid of all the dry, brush, 2271 02:02:02,120 --> 02:02:02,600 Speaker 11: Okay and. 2272 02:02:02,600 --> 02:02:05,280 Speaker 7: What's the dry? Brush, well the dry brush. 2273 02:02:05,040 --> 02:02:08,760 Speaker 11: Is is that cholesterol and making sure that your sugar 2274 02:02:08,880 --> 02:02:11,760 Speaker 11: is adequately. Controlled and those are some of the things 2275 02:02:11,760 --> 02:02:12,520 Speaker 11: that we don't want to go. 2276 02:02:12,600 --> 02:02:14,720 Speaker 7: Do now we can get. 2277 02:02:14,520 --> 02:02:17,960 Speaker 11: Into some of the atypical risk. Factors so these are 2278 02:02:17,960 --> 02:02:21,600 Speaker 11: the cause. Inflammation so some people have inflammatory conditions like 2279 02:02:21,680 --> 02:02:26,080 Speaker 11: rheumatoid arthritis or syriatic arthritis where their. 2280 02:02:25,880 --> 02:02:26,680 Speaker 7: Body is always. 2281 02:02:26,680 --> 02:02:29,320 Speaker 11: Inflame that's a risk, Factor so those patients need to 2282 02:02:29,320 --> 02:02:32,320 Speaker 11: be a little bit more. Careful everybody in their life 2283 02:02:32,360 --> 02:02:35,320 Speaker 11: should get a single blood test called AN lp little 2284 02:02:35,360 --> 02:02:39,320 Speaker 11: as it's a type of genetic. Cholesterol it's a marker 2285 02:02:39,400 --> 02:02:43,880 Speaker 11: of risk and if that's really really really, high then you, 2286 02:02:43,920 --> 02:02:46,520 Speaker 11: know regardless of you of your risk. PROFILE i shouldn't say, 2287 02:02:46,560 --> 02:02:51,480 Speaker 11: regardless but in addition to your risk, factors you have higher, 2288 02:02:51,560 --> 02:02:53,040 Speaker 11: risks so we're going to want to be a little 2289 02:02:53,080 --> 02:02:58,640 Speaker 11: bit more aggressive regarding treating. You so those sedentary lifestyle 2290 02:02:59,520 --> 02:03:01,640 Speaker 11: is also one as, well and you really want to 2291 02:03:01,680 --> 02:03:05,440 Speaker 11: be physically said and physically. Active So i'd say that 2292 02:03:05,520 --> 02:03:08,320 Speaker 11: those are the bulk of, them and that's probably what 2293 02:03:08,520 --> 02:03:13,000 Speaker 11: ninety five percent of the risk factors that we take into. 2294 02:03:13,000 --> 02:03:17,480 Speaker 13: Consideration you, know when we hear the term doctor heart, 2295 02:03:17,520 --> 02:03:21,840 Speaker 13: disease you, know we're so conditioned to believe that disease means, that, 2296 02:03:21,920 --> 02:03:24,520 Speaker 13: like there's this fungus that's growing through your body and it's, 2297 02:03:24,560 --> 02:03:27,840 Speaker 13: attacked you, know whatever it might be what labels as 2298 02:03:28,680 --> 02:03:31,040 Speaker 13: or falls under the umbrella of heart. 2299 02:03:31,080 --> 02:03:35,080 Speaker 11: Disease, yeah that's kind of a catch all bucket because 2300 02:03:35,120 --> 02:03:38,320 Speaker 11: you could say that somebody has a bad valve is heart. 2301 02:03:38,320 --> 02:03:41,280 Speaker 11: Disease somebody has plaque in their heart is heart. Disease 2302 02:03:41,720 --> 02:03:46,520 Speaker 11: so disease means abnormal functioning of normal. Physiology that's what 2303 02:03:47,120 --> 02:03:50,680 Speaker 11: that's really where the word comes. From so when when 2304 02:03:50,680 --> 02:03:52,880 Speaker 11: the heart is not when parts of the, heart and 2305 02:03:52,920 --> 02:03:56,240 Speaker 11: that could be an electrical system or it has or 2306 02:03:56,280 --> 02:03:58,440 Speaker 11: the arters that feed, it or the valves or the, 2307 02:03:58,480 --> 02:04:02,520 Speaker 11: squeeze that's all the. Heart so in my, mind somebody 2308 02:04:02,520 --> 02:04:07,520 Speaker 11: who has heart disease is somebody who has a dysfunction 2309 02:04:07,560 --> 02:04:09,760 Speaker 11: of The he just Doesn't your heart isn't like it 2310 02:04:09,800 --> 02:04:13,560 Speaker 11: was WHEN i was, Eighteen, okay so and that's a 2311 02:04:13,600 --> 02:04:18,040 Speaker 11: spectrum as. Well some people say plaque or having a 2312 02:04:18,080 --> 02:04:20,480 Speaker 11: heart attack is heart. Disease that's, True But i'd also 2313 02:04:20,680 --> 02:04:24,400 Speaker 11: say that having a sick, er weak heart heart failure 2314 02:04:24,720 --> 02:04:29,440 Speaker 11: is heart. Disease so it's. Complicated it's not a very specific. 2315 02:04:29,480 --> 02:04:34,560 Speaker 11: Thing most heart doctors don't speak that. Way we say 2316 02:04:34,600 --> 02:04:38,560 Speaker 11: that they have a, cardiomyopathy which is they have a 2317 02:04:38,600 --> 02:04:42,320 Speaker 11: weakness or disease of the heart, itself or if they have, 2318 02:04:42,440 --> 02:04:48,080 Speaker 11: plaque we say they have arterial sclerosis or after askrotic cardiovascular. 2319 02:04:48,120 --> 02:04:51,480 Speaker 1: Disease Doctor Ryan daley is my. Guest he is With. 2320 02:04:51,560 --> 02:04:54,040 Speaker 1: Franciscan by the, way we're going to talk about heart 2321 02:04:54,080 --> 02:04:56,560 Speaker 1: scans and. Folks as you hear me, mention you can 2322 02:04:57,040 --> 02:04:59,080 Speaker 1: find out about setting up for a heart scan From. 2323 02:04:59,080 --> 02:05:02,360 Speaker 1: Franciscan very, simple non invasive forty nine. Dollars you can 2324 02:05:02,360 --> 02:05:05,000 Speaker 1: pay out a pocket with these eight three three two 2325 02:05:05,040 --> 02:05:08,080 Speaker 1: three eight zero six eight eight is the telephone. Number 2326 02:05:08,080 --> 02:05:11,320 Speaker 1: that's eight three to three two three eight zero six eight. 2327 02:05:11,480 --> 02:05:13,960 Speaker 1: Eight let's talk about, that. Doctor the heart scan you 2328 02:05:14,000 --> 02:05:16,520 Speaker 1: talked about making sure there's no brush around the house 2329 02:05:16,600 --> 02:05:19,000 Speaker 1: in case there would be the situation of a house. 2330 02:05:19,000 --> 02:05:21,760 Speaker 1: Fire you can look at that with a satellite image 2331 02:05:21,800 --> 02:05:23,640 Speaker 1: of your, HOUSE i, guess and kind of inventory how 2332 02:05:23,640 --> 02:05:26,720 Speaker 1: the yard. Looks heart scan kind of does the same, 2333 02:05:26,880 --> 02:05:30,400 Speaker 1: thing does it? Not what exactly is a scan looking? 2334 02:05:30,520 --> 02:05:33,080 Speaker 1: For and who should be really paying attention to? 2335 02:05:33,120 --> 02:05:37,000 Speaker 11: This, sure that's a really great question as. Well thanks 2336 02:05:37,000 --> 02:05:40,760 Speaker 11: for thanks for asking. That so what a heart scan. 2337 02:05:40,960 --> 02:05:44,400 Speaker 11: Is it's a calcium, score and it's not like the 2338 02:05:44,440 --> 02:05:47,040 Speaker 11: calcium in your. Blood it's like the calcium in your. 2339 02:05:47,080 --> 02:05:47,440 Speaker 7: Bones. 2340 02:05:47,680 --> 02:05:51,400 Speaker 11: Okay so what they do is it's a very low 2341 02:05:51,480 --> 02:05:54,840 Speaker 11: radiation cap scan that PROVIDES x rays and THOSE x 2342 02:05:54,960 --> 02:05:59,760 Speaker 11: rays go through the body and the machine measures the 2343 02:06:00,120 --> 02:06:03,680 Speaker 11: how hard different components of your body are and as 2344 02:06:03,720 --> 02:06:08,480 Speaker 11: signs a mathematical value to. That so things that are very, 2345 02:06:08,520 --> 02:06:11,960 Speaker 11: hard like your spine or your arm or your, leg 2346 02:06:13,000 --> 02:06:16,440 Speaker 11: well those show up as, bright, okay and that brightness 2347 02:06:16,520 --> 02:06:21,640 Speaker 11: is calcification or something super. Hard so the body has 2348 02:06:21,640 --> 02:06:25,200 Speaker 11: a limited number of ways of healing. Itself so, initially 2349 02:06:25,240 --> 02:06:27,640 Speaker 11: when there's injury to the blood, vessel it starts to 2350 02:06:27,680 --> 02:06:30,720 Speaker 11: form a. Scab, well we can't image that with this 2351 02:06:31,200 --> 02:06:35,000 Speaker 11: quick screening test that cost forty nine. Dollars we have 2352 02:06:35,080 --> 02:06:38,040 Speaker 11: other ways of taking a look at. That but as 2353 02:06:38,120 --> 02:06:43,760 Speaker 11: the as the hard, heals it goes through a process of, hardening, 2354 02:06:44,120 --> 02:06:48,720 Speaker 11: scarring and ultimately forming something that's almost bone, like which 2355 02:06:48,800 --> 02:06:53,960 Speaker 11: is this dense hard. Calcification the WAY i like to 2356 02:06:53,960 --> 02:06:56,880 Speaker 11: think of the, CALCIFICATION i like to think of it 2357 02:06:56,920 --> 02:07:01,520 Speaker 11: as grizzly bear paup. Prints so it's not the grizzly 2358 02:07:01,960 --> 02:07:04,680 Speaker 11: bear paw prince that gets. You it's the grizzly. Bear 2359 02:07:05,280 --> 02:07:07,960 Speaker 11: but if you see a whole lot of paw, prints 2360 02:07:08,000 --> 02:07:10,280 Speaker 11: you're not going to want to camp, there, Okay so 2361 02:07:10,320 --> 02:07:13,720 Speaker 11: that means that there's. Risk so when we see somebody 2362 02:07:13,760 --> 02:07:17,240 Speaker 11: that has a really high calcium, score that means there's 2363 02:07:17,240 --> 02:07:20,000 Speaker 11: a lot of grizzly bear activity around. There so you 2364 02:07:20,080 --> 02:07:22,920 Speaker 11: got to go, looking what's the grizzly bear the grizzly. 2365 02:07:22,920 --> 02:07:27,640 Speaker 11: Bear is that really, soft non calcified. Plaque we call 2366 02:07:27,760 --> 02:07:30,320 Speaker 11: that that that's the high risk plaque and that's much 2367 02:07:30,400 --> 02:07:36,800 Speaker 11: more likely to rupture much like pulling the scab off 2368 02:07:36,840 --> 02:07:40,320 Speaker 11: of your knee and then the body forms a blood 2369 02:07:40,360 --> 02:07:43,240 Speaker 11: clot and that's actually how a hard attack. Works so 2370 02:07:43,320 --> 02:07:45,760 Speaker 11: the more paw prints you, have that means that there's 2371 02:07:45,840 --> 02:07:49,360 Speaker 11: more soft pack. Around so now if you don't have 2372 02:07:49,520 --> 02:07:53,720 Speaker 11: any paw, prints, okay could there be a bear around? You, 2373 02:07:54,520 --> 02:07:56,760 Speaker 11: yes there could, Right so just because you don't see 2374 02:07:56,800 --> 02:07:59,360 Speaker 11: it doesn't mean it's not, there but it's far less 2375 02:07:59,440 --> 02:08:01,720 Speaker 11: likely than if you see pot prints all around your. 2376 02:08:01,720 --> 02:08:03,960 Speaker 11: Campsite so that's all we have to think about. It 2377 02:08:04,360 --> 02:08:07,560 Speaker 11: if you have a calcium score of, zero in, general 2378 02:08:08,000 --> 02:08:12,640 Speaker 11: on a population, level your risk is lower than somebody 2379 02:08:12,680 --> 02:08:16,840 Speaker 11: has plaque all around their. Heart so if they have 2380 02:08:16,880 --> 02:08:19,080 Speaker 11: a coucium score of three hundred or five hundred or a, 2381 02:08:19,160 --> 02:08:21,440 Speaker 11: thousand that person is much higher risk of having a 2382 02:08:21,480 --> 02:08:25,240 Speaker 11: cardiovascular event in the near. Term, now if you have 2383 02:08:25,240 --> 02:08:28,080 Speaker 11: a calcium score of zero and your two Packadet marlborough, 2384 02:08:28,120 --> 02:08:30,240 Speaker 11: smoker and you're a diabetic and you have high blood 2385 02:08:30,240 --> 02:08:35,560 Speaker 11: pressure and you you, know do other naughty, things that 2386 02:08:36,200 --> 02:08:39,520 Speaker 11: is that's not super reassuring to, me because you can 2387 02:08:39,680 --> 02:08:45,040 Speaker 11: have that, soft non calcified plaque that we're not visualizing 2388 02:08:45,080 --> 02:08:49,040 Speaker 11: with a calcium. Score but if your calcium score is three, 2389 02:08:49,120 --> 02:08:52,000 Speaker 11: HUNDRED i, know you know you have. Plaque, okay there's 2390 02:08:52,000 --> 02:08:52,920 Speaker 11: grizzly bears around. 2391 02:08:52,920 --> 02:08:53,800 Speaker 7: There we have to. 2392 02:08:53,840 --> 02:08:56,520 Speaker 11: Worry we have to be aggressive regarding you and start 2393 02:08:56,520 --> 02:09:01,920 Speaker 11: optimizing your risk.
