1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,040
Speaker 1: Good morning everyone. Is we continue to monitor all situations

2
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:06,800
Speaker 1: concerning the cults of the NFL as free agency and

3
00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:10,200
Speaker 1: signings are coming and going. Maybe Kyler Murray finally has

4
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 1: a place. We got a lot to talk about today.

5
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: Team USA survives not only in the World Baseball Classic,

6
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 1: but also the women's senior national team with a World

7
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 1: Cup qualifier. Caitlyn Clark finally back in action. We saw

8
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: her on the court in a meaningful game last night.

9
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 1: Lots to talk about today. Good morning, gentlemen. We've made

10
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 1: it to the back half of the week. It's already Thursday,

11
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:32,840
Speaker 1: and I guess now that we're a couple of days

12
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 1: in Kevin, I'll start with you. Are we pretty much

13
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: done with the Colts after the big signing of Daniel

14
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,639
Speaker 1: Jones and Alec Pearce and they brought in another defensive

15
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:45,279
Speaker 1: end yesterday. Where are they at? There's still a few

16
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 1: little things to clean up. Do they have to resign

17
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,240
Speaker 1: some of their own guys? Where are we at? Well?

18
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 2: I would hope for their sake, they're not done. They

19
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 2: still need, I would say, ample help, particularly in the

20
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 2: front seven. So and I guess a new starting safety

21
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 2: with Nick Cross heading home to the DC area to

22
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 2: join the commanders yesterday. So yes, I still think they

23
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 2: have a good amount of work to do on the

24
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 2: defensive side of the ball.

25
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 3: As I guess we transition into the second wave of

26
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 3: free agency.

27
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: No question about that. How have the Colts done so far?

28
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: Is it? I know there's still work to do, but

29
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 1: so far the first three days? What grade would you

30
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: give them, James? Boy? Boy, It's complicated, I know, because

31
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 1: there's a lot to kind of factor in.

32
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, grades, I mean, I don't know, see passing, you

33
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 4: do what you were supposed to do. When it comes

34
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 4: to retaining all Pearson, Daniel Jones and the rest of it,

35
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 4: the big picture items, I guess beyond that you have

36
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,199
Speaker 4: to kind of flesh out. But I will say Dale

37
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 4: Jones got paid like we all thought he probably would.

38
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 5: I know, some people rolling their eyes.

39
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 4: Like why did he get two years eighty eight million

40
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 4: up to one hundred million dollars on his new contract?

41
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 5: But I don't hate the structure of it.

42
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 4: I mean, if your guy was always going to be

43
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones, which I've told you all that from the beginning,

44
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 4: then I look at it like this, Jeff, you have

45
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 4: two years to see if Daniel Jones can hold up,

46
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 4: which again I'm not going to bet my house on,

47
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 4: but if he does, then hey, you resign him in

48
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 4: two years. If he doesn't, you're out of it in

49
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 4: two years and you get your first round picks back.

50
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 4: And so I think that now it's all about when

51
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 4: do we find out the exact structure of the deal,

52
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,359
Speaker 4: how much cap space they have because of how they

53
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 4: did it, but I think it was a pretty solid

54
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 4: compromise for both sides. If you knew all along Daniel

55
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 4: Jones was going to be here beyond just one season.

56
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's kind of how it felt all along.

57
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:41,239
Speaker 1: And I saw a couple of things yesterday, Kevin. They're

58
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 1: still hopeful he'll be ready for week one. Is that's

59
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 1: nine months we're we're seeing Tatum for the Celtics now

60
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: playing in the NBA after a nine month hiatus following

61
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 1: achilles surgery. Is that still realistic?

62
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 5: Yeah?

63
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 2: I think that's their expectation. But again I will continue

64
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 2: to reiterate that throughout the offseason. To me, there are

65
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 2: two different Daniel Jones questions in terms of him playing

66
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 2: football again. One is yes, when is he cleared? And

67
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 2: again the expectation is he will be ready for week one,

68
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 2: But the bigger question is when is he himself? Because

69
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 2: he played football limited last year it did not go well.

70
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 2: If he is limited for a substantial period September October, hey,

71
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 2: you know it's more of a year two thing with

72
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 2: Achilles guys, Well, then I don't think you're getting the

73
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 2: quarterback play that you need. So again, these are questions

74
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 2: for much, much deeper into the offseason.

75
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 1: All right, But at the end of the day, let's

76
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: take a look now at the Colts offensively. Let's say

77
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones gets back and he's himself by week three

78
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 1: or four. Oh boy, I'm just saying if he thinks

79
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: he's coming back by week one, at some point he's

80
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: going to have to start playing into shape. So optimistically,

81
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,119
Speaker 1: if he's ready by week three or four to be himself,

82
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: got Jonathan Taylor, Now you got Alec Pierce. I guess

83
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: the big question offensively because you know Tyler arn Is

84
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: probably we've talked about going to be the number two

85
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: option a draft, that next wide receiver to try and

86
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 1: fill the role, to certain it to a certain extent

87
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: with Michael Pittman, you're not gonna find that right away.

88
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 1: But what do they do? Do they find somebody else

89
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: out here on the on the free agent market? Do

90
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: they do it through the draft? What's your best guess?

91
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I will continue to go with this.

92
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 2: I think internally they're a little bit more content with

93
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 2: their group than maybe some would.

94
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 3: Currently view it.

95
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:26,359
Speaker 2: And you could talk me into every level of the

96
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 2: defense being an early draft pick, to be honest with you,

97
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 2: I mean you could talk me into a certainly defensive end.

98
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 2: You could talk me in a linebacker and maybe not

99
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 2: second round, but at some point you probably need a

100
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 2: safety as well. I mean you're starting safety right now

101
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 2: as a guy that's never played a snap in the NFL,

102
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 2: and it's coming off of Liz frank injury. So yeah,

103
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 2: I think those will obviously be things to continue to want.

104
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about today. We'll get some of

105
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,040
Speaker 1: your feedback throughout the morning at two three nine ten

106
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: seventy on the fan text line. Also call us up

107
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:54,040
Speaker 1: if you'd like to, and we'll try to squeeze you

108
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: in At two three nine ten seventy Today, Bruce Weber

109
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,160
Speaker 1: is going to join us in the nine o'clock hour

110
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 1: talk about the big ten Turner meant deep breath once again,

111
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 1: a double digit lead to a double digit deficit and

112
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 1: another loss against Northwest. Is that that's just that's how

113
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 1: it goes for Indiana. Now they just lose to Northwestern

114
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: now right.

115
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 2: I think I referred to Chris Collins's I use Daddy

116
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,280
Speaker 2: this week, and I think he sent them to their

117
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 2: room quite well, did you guys ever go into the

118
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 2: corner or were you a like where was time out

119
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 2: when you were in the room? Is it like you

120
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 2: were in a specific area of the room or are

121
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 2: you just allowed to be in the room.

122
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 1: I may or may not have had frequent trips to

123
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: the principal's office. Third and fourth grade were not my

124
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 1: shining well.

125
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 5: I was a perfect child, so I had no issues growing.

126
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 2: Out, go to the room the door basically, but no

127
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 2: max bow and peeking around the corner for us though,

128
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 2: And so she I told her she's a clown, but

129
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:57,600
Speaker 2: love moms.

130
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,280
Speaker 4: But she told me that whenever I was like, you

131
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 4: know how kids can be like, oh, like I skinned

132
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 4: my I bump my knee, can you like focus on that,

133
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 4: she would tell me, hey, like, oh you bunch your knee,

134
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 4: all right?

135
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 5: Go over there?

136
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,359
Speaker 4: And raise your right arm up and let me know

137
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 4: when your knee stops hurting, and then obviously the arm

138
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 4: is burning.

139
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 5: And that start. So yeah, she would troll me every

140
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 5: now and then.

141
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,919
Speaker 2: Girl, I love that one wasted year. Wasted year in Bloomington.

142
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 2: You know, Darren Devrees went this sounds crazy something. He

143
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 2: kind of went all in on this roster. You know,

144
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 2: he said, I'm gonna go out and get a bunch

145
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,039
Speaker 2: of one year Reynolds. And again, when you take over

146
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,799
Speaker 2: a program in today's college landscape, you can go about

147
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:36,840
Speaker 2: it in a couple of different ways.

148
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 3: You can opt for.

149
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 2: What he did, kind of go all in on the

150
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 2: one year guys, or you could find some balance in that.

151
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,160
Speaker 2: You know, some one year guys have about a couple

152
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 2: two or three year developmental play pieces here and I'm

153
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 2: watching last night and again, everybody that's out there, they're

154
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,039
Speaker 2: one and done. I mean Trent Sisily. It gets treated

155
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 2: like a walk on with how Darren Deveeze has handled

156
00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 2: things late in the season. Nick Dorn's about the only

157
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 2: one that has eligibility even coming back. So it's kind

158
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 2: of the same song and dance next year of an

159
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,599
Speaker 2: entirely new roster you're going to try and put together,

160
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 2: and it's just it's amazing.

161
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 3: I tweeted it last night.

162
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 2: I mean, I'd argue there's no program in college basketball

163
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 2: that has invested more, whether it be their fan base,

164
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 2: whether it be their finances, whether it be whatever, the

165
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 2: attention that the program is given by the university and

166
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 2: has gotten less in return than Indiana University's men's basketball program.

167
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 1: But regardless who the coach is, it feels like the

168
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 1: team is kind of stuck in neutral the very end

169
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 1: of the Tom Crean era. Then you move to Archie Miller,

170
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: and then you know, now we're on to dere As

171
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: a coach after Woodson, and it just feels like they're

172
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: in that, you know, bottom half, close to mid part

173
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: of the Big Ten and just scraping to try and

174
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: get an NCAA berth, which doesn't seem to quite work out.

175
00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 1: That just feels like that's who they are right now reality.

176
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 3: I mean, it's not hard to make the nca Tournament.

177
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 2: There's sixty eight spots, and yet I mean, listening to

178
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 2: Darren dev Reeves try to pitch his team into the

179
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 2: tournament last night was one of the more sadder press

180
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 2: conference moments I've seen in quite a while.

181
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 5: Did not throw the no hitter.

182
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: Maybe he could make Ben's pretzels over at the Fieldhouse

183
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: when he's done with that, twist everything into the way

184
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: he wants it to be. M that that was a

185
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 1: good analogy, though I think about Ben's Pretzels a lot,

186
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 1: a lot. I'm not gonna lie, but that's that's kind

187
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 1: of who they are. And I guess my bigger problem

188
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 1: with the one and done's for this one year. And

189
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: I kind of knew where he was at coming in

190
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 1: and all that stuff. I didn't like James the roster construction.

191
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 1: They didn't have much size, they weren't very physical and something.

192
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,760
Speaker 1: They were incredibly streaky shooting, and they didn't shoot well

193
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:47,559
Speaker 1: all that often. And if you're not big and you're

194
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 1: not physical and you're not shooting very well, you're not

195
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: gonna win a lot of games against good teams.

196
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, I thought KB.

197
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:54,839
Speaker 4: I believe it was one of your students, is it

198
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 4: Nick rogancap Yeah. He gave a great summary last night

199
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 4: of the U Seeson. Great voice, by the way.

200
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:02,199
Speaker 5: Voice.

201
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 4: Someone will say it was made for radio and broadcasting,

202
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 4: which is what he's doing. But I think that early

203
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 4: on when they beat Marquette, you thought it could be different,

204
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 4: and then you look up now and it's like, wow,

205
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,959
Speaker 4: we're in the same position. And really, the only player

206
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 4: that I felt like showed up not in a night

207
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 4: out was Lamar Wilkerson, who should probably be a tip

208
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 4: All Big ten in some capacity. I'm not saying first

209
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 4: team or whatever, but he should get recognized.

210
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 3: I believe he was second team.

211
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 4: Okay, there you go, Like, that's the only player I

212
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 4: felt like met the moment, and it stinks for him

213
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 4: to not have more moments in the tournament.

214
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 2: Yeah. You know again, if you look at the last decade,

215
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 2: Indiana's two tournament wins, one is over Wyoming. In the

216
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 2: playing game, I'll never forget Mark. Remember when we had

217
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 2: the Wyoming play by play radio announcer on.

218
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 1: And he was very excited.

219
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 2: He talked about Tray Jackson Davis like he had just

220
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 2: seen Jordan.

221
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, God, Jordan and Kobe combined.

222
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 2: Kobe, the Asia Wilson, Caitlin Clark all incarnated into one,

223
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 2: and Tracey Jackson Davis.

224
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:09,719
Speaker 3: Then they'd beat Kent State as what four thirteen I

225
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 3: think it was, or a five twelve something like that.

226
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:12,000
Speaker 1: That's it.

227
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 2: Those are two tournament wins in a decade, Wyoming in

228
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 2: a playing game and Kent State in a round one game.

229
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,959
Speaker 2: And I mean, in all seriousness, my notable, my only

230
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 2: IU basketball memory in March madis over the last decade

231
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 2: is when do you guys remember when the cheerleader climbed

232
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 2: up and got the ball off the top of the backboard.

233
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 3: I do you guys remember that?

234
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:35,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, the male cheerleader put the female cheerleader on her shoulders.

235
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 2: I think it was still when we were doing the

236
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,679
Speaker 2: COVID thing. Yeah, so she's rocking the mask and great,

237
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 2: just unbelievable athletic ability, frankly to get said ball off

238
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 2: the top of the backboard. That's the highlight for the

239
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,439
Speaker 2: Hoosiers in the tournament over the last decade.

240
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 1: It's been a rough go. It's certainly been a rough go,

241
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 1: there's no question about that. And of course Northwestern advances

242
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 1: in the Big Ten tournament. They'll get Purdue later on tonight.

243
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 1: We'll cover that in some depth later on today throughout

244
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: the show, and again invite your thoughts comments. Phone calls

245
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 1: two three nine ten seventy, either on the old fashioned

246
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 1: phone line or on the fan text line. Either way,

247
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 1: we'll get to some of your thoughts. How many thin

248
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 1: mints are left out of the two boxes you took

249
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 1: home yesterday, Kevin Bowen.

250
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 2: I had a few, certainly they were delicious. They went

251
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 2: right into the freezer for them. By the way, shout out,

252

254
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 2: We say small ball, we kind of mean the old

255
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 2: Papa you know.

256
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:37,559

Speaker 4: were a stretched four. Well I are you in, Pascal siakam?

258

263
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:53,160

Speaker 1: Can you can you pay in the equivalent of Finman's.

268
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 2: I have not looked at the fine print, but I

00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:16,719
Speaker 1: All right, I'm looking forward to that. All right, we'll

273
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: check it down for you. Coming up in just a minute.

274
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 1: We'll talk a lot about the Colts free agency fallout

275
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 1: continues from the failed Ravens Raiders trade. We'll talk about that,

276
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: all kinds of things going on a Thursday morning. This

277
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 1: is ninety three to five and one oh seven five,

278
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: good Thursday morning. We will start with the Indianapolis Colts

279
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: the National Football League. It's been a busy season for

280
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 1: free agencies and signings and all those kinds of things.

281
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 1: If you're just joining us this morning. James Boyd another

282
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,080
Speaker 1: defensive end yesterday for the Indianapolis Colts. Is it a

283
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:46,880
Speaker 1: difference maker?

284
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 5: Maybe Michael Clemens coming over from the Jets.

285
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 4: I don't think that he's really the splash signing that

286
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 4: you want on the edge, more rotational guy. If from

287
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 4: everything that I read, he can be a little hot

288
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 4: headed on the field, So we'll see what that means.

289
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 1: Kevin, I heard he can slide inside if need be

290
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,559
Speaker 1: a little bit too, right, Yeah, I don't.

291
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 3: Think he's a difference maker. That would be my thought there.

292
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, poor, you know, Taekwon lewis depth pec You know,

293
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 2: that's kind of how I would probably try to label.

294
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 3: It in Colts terms.

295
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 2: But you know this is you know, earlier in the

296
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 2: week I said about arden Key, the Colts signed a move,

297
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 2: not the move. That's what I would say about Michael Clemons.

298
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 2: You need to replenish your depth. I don't want to

299
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 2: overlook that. But you know this is by no means

300
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,320
Speaker 2: a home run type of move for the Edge group.

301
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,920
Speaker 1: All right, So just to review James, They've signed Daniel

302
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 1: Jones to a four year deal. Alec, I'm sorry, Alex

303
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: Pierce to a four year deal. Daniel Jones to the

304
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: two year deal. Picked up former Jets defensive end Michael Clemmons.

305
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: As we talked about that adds to arden Key, who

306
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 1: they picked up on the defensive line from the Titans

307
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 1: the other day. Big loss yesterday. We kind of expected

308
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 1: it as we see a defensive back leave the Indianapolis Colts,

309
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,200
Speaker 1: a guy that I kind of liked a little bit too.

310
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, Nick Cross heading to the Commander is a two

311
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 4: year deal. I believe up worth up to fourteen million

312
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,319
Speaker 4: dollars he heads back home to the DMV area.

313
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 1: Yesterday, the big news was that rescinded trade that the

314
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 1: Ravens backed out of with the Raiders, that sent Max

315
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 1: Crosby back to Las Vegas, and that allowed the Ravens

316
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 1: to soon after sign Trey Hendrickson. I guess the big

317
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 1: news today Kevin looks like Kyler Murray is going to

318
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 1: have an on site interview meeting with the Minnesota Vikings

319
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: and that may be their guy.

320
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 2: And did I see one more on the Max Crosby front?

321
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 2: Did I see he had a tweet saying like he's

322
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 2: a Raider?

323
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 1: Yes? He did.

324
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I guess the expectation now that he will

325
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 4: play for the Raider is this uphoming season.

326
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 1: Got it?

327
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 3: I know we had a little bit of debate on that.

328
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 2: Obviously, the Colts don't have first round picks, so you

329
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 2: know how much they could have even entertained such an idea,

330
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 2: It's probably worth pointing out.

331
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 3: But yeah, Kyler Murray, I guess potentially in Minnesota Vikings.

332
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 2: And I'm curious, you know, do we get into clarity

333
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 2: on Anthony Richardson at all here in the coming days,

334
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 2: coming weeks as the quarterback dominos continue to play out.

335
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 2: That's kind of something that we haven't really talked about, understandably,

336
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 2: but you know that's still somewhat on the back burner.

337
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 1: I will keep an eye on the Colts and talk

338
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 1: about anything that breaks throughout the day. Right here on

339
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 1: ninety three five and one O seven to five to

340
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: the fan, we have to talk about college basketball, James.

341
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: Everybody had a lead in the first half last night

342
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: and then everybody lost. We'll start with IU as I say,

343
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 1: they spit the bid against Northwestern again, seventh loss in

344
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: a row to Northwestern. They went from double digits up

345
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 1: in the first half with nine to twenty five to

346
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 1: go to be in down ten with ten minutes left

347
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 1: in the second half.

348
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 5: What happened?

349
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 4: What's happened all year? They haven't showed up in the

350
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 4: moments they needed to. And so there goes your NCAA

351
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 4: tournament bid in my opinion, and you can't really blame anybody,

352
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 4: appoint any fingers and say, you know, you had a

353
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 4: bid stolen or something like that, you did not handle

354
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 4: your business.

355
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: How much pressure is going to be on Darren Derves

356
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 1: going into his second season, just his second season.

357
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 2: Kevin, Oh yeah, I mean right, yeah, I mean hell,

358
00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:00,960
Speaker 2: anytime you're in that seat, period, there's pressure on probably

359
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 2: the most whatever eyeball job.

360
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 3: In the state from a sporting standpoint.

361
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 2: Given the history of that program, and again in today's

362
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 2: day and age of college athletics, the ability to kind

363
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 2: of quick fix things happened a little bit easier given

364
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 2: the portal. Now, finding a balance there, I think is

365
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 2: something that has to be achieved. I thought they were

366
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:24,520
Speaker 2: way too one year portal dependent last year, and I

367
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 2: mean they're pretty much gonna have a new look roster

368
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 2: again next year, so the same old Well it's really

369
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 2: hard to you know, incorporate you know, ten twelve new guys.

370
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 3: Well that's what you're gonna be doing next year.

371
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 2: So you know how you are able to like setting

372
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 2: the culture and you know, here's our foundation and bolly

373
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 2: we you know, some guys showed growth.

374
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 3: Like no, none of that occurred.

375
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 2: I don't want to hear any of that from Darre

376
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 2: Devrez or anybody really with the IU program because that

377
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 2: would just be a live frankly with how the program

378
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 2: was built last year.

379
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 1: All right later on tonight six thirty pm to two up,

380
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:59,000
Speaker 1: in Chicago with the United Center. Northwestern advances with that

381
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 1: one over Indiana. They take on Perdue at six point

382
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: thirty tonight. Can watch them on the Big ten Network.

383
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,639
Speaker 1: And last time we saw these two teams play, Northwestern

384
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,879
Speaker 1: got a seventy sixty six win up at Rice Ryan

385
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 1: Wels Ryan Arena. Thank you all get there. But I

386
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 1: don't know, Northwestern seems to be a killer of Indiana

387
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:20,120
Speaker 1: teams these days. I thought Purdue beat Northwestern last time.

388
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 1: Oh they did seventy sixty six. They came from behind,

389
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 1: thank you very much. I can say c J. Cox

390
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,119
Speaker 1: went off in that one game thinking about.

391
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, for those that missed that game, that was when

392
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 2: Braden Smith, I thought, really that's ruggled. Northwestern did a

393
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,679
Speaker 2: very nice job on Braden Smith in that game, and

394
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 2: c J. Cox was outstanding in the second half and

395
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 2: Produce survived that one. It's their only win Perdue in

396
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 2: the last four here. It was kind of funny last night.

397
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 2: We're the best players. I thought Northwestern was Jake West

398
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 2: They're freshman point guard.

399
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,880
Speaker 1: He was tremendous. He's a TikTok guy, right, big star

400
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 1: on social media.

401
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 2: Big TikToker, and he did not play in last week's

402
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 2: meeting against Purdue. So yes, Perdue will get their start

403
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 2: in the Big Ten tournament tonight, and if they win,

404
00:17:58,119 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 2: they will get Nebraska coming up.

405
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 1: Apologies to all the Purdue people out there. I started

406
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,680
Speaker 1: getting ahead of myself again early. I'm excited today. I'm

407
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:07,879
Speaker 1: looking forward to heading right in. I mean, this is

408
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,199
Speaker 1: the heart of March madness. Right. Last night, not a

409
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,479
Speaker 1: great night for Butler. They dropped to sixteen and sixteen

410
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: on the year the Big East loss to Providence. Stefan

411
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 1: Vox had twenty eight points for Providence. Michae Lajai led

412
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,479
Speaker 1: the Bulldogs with twenty one points, eleven rebounds, four assists.

413
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 1: Finley Bijack had seventeen. And I'll paraphrase one of our

414
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:30,479
Speaker 1: texters earlier this morning, Kevin, where does Butler go next

415
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: in the Big East. They've not been able to make

416
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 1: a tournament with that manta there so far.

417
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess that mode is coming back.

418
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:38,640
Speaker 2: You know, That's kind of what I read into Grant

419
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 2: Line Deecker their eighties comments a few weeks back. I

420
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,760
Speaker 2: don't know if we've had like official official word on

421
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 2: it there, but again, they're going to have some notable

422
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 2: roster turnover. Finley Bizjack I think would be vital to

423
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,199
Speaker 2: bring back. We'll see about Jalen Jackson's situation. You know,

424
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,199
Speaker 2: they had, I mean, they were I thought a tournament

425
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 2: team heading in the Big East, and some injuries certainly

426
00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:58,919
Speaker 2: started to pile up.

427
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 3: But you know, obviously there's a resource question, you.

428
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 2: Know, I think both grantline Decker and bad modest convos

429
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 2: with US have have acknowledged that.

430
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:07,719
Speaker 3: So they have a lot of work to do.

431
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,600
Speaker 2: Now they have a few more freshmen, you know, on

432
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 2: their roster, and again we'll see how the development happens there.

433
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,159
Speaker 2: But certainly the injuries and then really really just a

434
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:18,440
Speaker 2: bad Big EA season transpired from there.

435
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 1: And yesterday it was a microcosm.

436
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 2: They had a sixteen point lead in the first half

437
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 2: and then you blink and Providence blown away.

438
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, and such high hopes after they went up to

439
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,119
Speaker 1: Greenbrier and they beat Virginia, who is scheduled to be

440
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 1: a top tier seed in the NCAA tournament, and then

441
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,239
Speaker 1: they lose their point guard to injury and they just

442
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 1: really couldn't get it going. And so that's what happened

443
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 1: with Butler this year. Sixteen and sixteen PACER's return home. Tonight,

444
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 1: they'll take on the Phoenix Suns seven o'clock, six thirty

445
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:44,440
Speaker 1: year time here at ninety three five, one oh seven

446
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,359
Speaker 1: to five of the fan. They've lost ten in a row,

447
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: and the injury list right now for tonight's game. I

448
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 1: watch A Zubas questionable with left ankle spring of each

449
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: A Zubats, Andrew Nemhart questionable, Aaron Nesmith questionable, TJ McConnell questionable,

450
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:04,679
Speaker 1: Pascal Siakam doubtful, Quintin Jackson doubtful, and of course Furfy

451
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:05,800
Speaker 1: and Haliburton out all year long.

452
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 3: I think he was right there.

453
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was gonna say Zubots inching closer to perhaps

454
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 4: to his debut. I talked to Tony East last night

455
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 4: about this shout out to him and the locked on

456
00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 4: PACER's crew. And typically when Tony's kind of been tracking it,

457
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,160
Speaker 4: if a player is upgraded to questionable, they have played

458
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:24,439
Speaker 4: for the Pacers. So could this be the night that

459
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 4: we finally see Zobots? And again we talked about it

460
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 4: here on the airwaves a little bit. How important is

461
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 4: it for him to just get out there and try

462
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 4: to get acclimated to as system that'll look different with

463
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 4: tires Halliburton, but still have some of the same things

464
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:36,199
Speaker 4: and elements.

465
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,680
Speaker 1: All right. More Basketball Team USA Senior women continue their

466
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 1: qualifying play for the World Cup. Even though they're already in,

467
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 1: they're still taking part in this qualifier. They beat Senegal

468
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,880
Speaker 1: one ten forty six last night. But notable for US

469
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,600
Speaker 1: Caitlin Clark, first time we've seen her in real game

470
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 1: action since she did not play the rest of the

471
00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 1: season following a couple of injuries last year for the Fever,

472
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: seventeen points twelve assists than twenty minutes of play. She

473
00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 1: was four to five from three point range. But she's

474
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:06,640
Speaker 1: been told by Carol lost and to worry more about

475
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 1: getting your teammates involved, and she did that twelve assists

476
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 1: and I think nineteen minutes last night.

477
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:11,320
Speaker 5: Yeah.

478
00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 4: Special player put it out there on social media yesterday.

479
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 4: I felt like a lot of people were being disingenuous

480
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 4: about how great Caitlyn Clark is even though she was

481
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 4: hurt last year.

482
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 5: So it's time to remind people.

483
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was funny.

484
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,639
Speaker 2: We actually watched the first half last night and Rosie

485
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 2: was very confused why she wasn't wearing a fever uniforms kind.

486
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,159
Speaker 3: Of had to get through that initial I.

487
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 2: I obviously haven't seen Kaitlyn Clark play five on five

488
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 2: and what eight months, ten months? Yeah, the first thing

489
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 2: I said to on myself was she is the best

490
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 2: passer in women's basketball.

491
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 3: That was my first thought.

492
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 2: Like, she threw this dime on a fast break, just

493
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 2: splitting a defender right in stride.

494
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 3: I forget who it was for the lay up there.

495
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 2: So yeah, that's something I always have to remind myself of, like, yes,

496
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 2: she has whatever Steph Curry range, but her passing is elite.

497
00:21:58,080 --> 00:21:59,800
Speaker 2: There was about forty seven people in the gym, and

498
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,119
Speaker 2: I'm not sure Senegal could have beat us four and

499
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 2: you know, Tony Katz, but nonetheless.

500
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: Could have seen it they going that far.

501
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,840
Speaker 5: These women kind of tall. I'd have missing some layups.

502
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:11,840
Speaker 1: Tony running up and down the floor with a cigar

503
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:12,680
Speaker 1: in his mouth right.

504
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 4: Also shout out to Yeah that too, southa Chloy Peterson

505
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 4: made the trip for Indy Star.

506
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 1: Nice shout out to to Andy Weaber, who stepping down

00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,679
Speaker 1: and fourteen at Plainfield, had a one ninety six and

Speaker 1: twenty two wins overall in thirty two years with three

511
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 1: different teams. This pastor, Plainfield was twenty two and three

512
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 1: lost in the sectional semi finals. But that's a that's

513
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,360
Speaker 1: a heck of a high school basketball career right there.

514
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:42,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, regional's coming up this weekend.

515
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,720

520
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 2: tens in each of the last four races, and he's

Speaker 2: well and certainly is a fan favorite.

530
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 3: So good to see official pen to paper on that.

531
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 1: All right, that's what's happening in the world of sports

532
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:30,680
Speaker 1: as we know it. Right this second, we'll talk more

533
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 1: about the Colts the NFL, and I've got some questions

534
00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 1: for you guys regarding the Ravens and their handling of

535
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 1: the entire defensive end situation this past week and what

536
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 1: it did to the entire market. We'll do it next.

537
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: At ninety three five and one, I was good morning everyone,

538
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,440
Speaker 1: and a reminder that the Fan Invitational twenty twenty six

539
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,719
Speaker 1: golf outing is coming your way April thirtieth at Legends

540
00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: Golf Club down in Franklin. It's all presented by Franciscan Health.

541
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: Found out yesterday Kevin Bowen that Matt Taylor will be

542
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:01,400
Speaker 1: our official starter on whole one. Everybody. It's a shotgun start,

543
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,800
Speaker 1: but everybody, when they come through the first hole on

544
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: the tee, they will get the rousing Matt Taylor treatment

545
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 1: and be introduced as an individual golfer. That would be cool.

546
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 1: That's tremendous.

547
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 3: I love that.

548
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: That is That is great.

549
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:14,680
Speaker 5: Is Matt Taylor a top five human?

550
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 3: Great grace right there.

551
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:20,480
Speaker 2: Last Thursday I attended his trivia night. Great great work

552
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 2: for Matt Taylor. I think anybody that does Indiana sports

553
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 2: trivia will enjoy it. So that was at the Bulldog

554
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 2: where I'll be tomorrow night for a little small ball

555
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:28,200
Speaker 2: of it.

556
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:29,640
Speaker 1: Curt Jack and how.

557
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,879
Speaker 6: Did Matt Taylor ask a trivia question? And if you

558
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:33,639
Speaker 6: get it, your group gets it right, you get to

559
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 6: move up fifty yards or something like.

560
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,119
Speaker 2: You know, I suggested that for Jake Querry. Are we

561
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 2: doing that this year?

562
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:42,160
Speaker 1: Jeff, It's all on the table right now. I'm fine

563
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 1: with that. That would so I'm not organizing the tournament,

564
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 1: but I will make that suggestion.

565
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 5: That would be so fitting for Jake. Honestly, it would

566
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 5: be fits him right, Yes, he does.

567
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:54,359
Speaker 1: So we go also picking up seeing Tucker Barnhart told

568
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:55,879
Speaker 1: us he's trying to get it. Forced him together for

569
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,479
Speaker 1: the tournament yesterday. That's pretty cool. Eddie White, who you

570
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 1: can't have have a golf tournament in Indianapolis without Eddie White.

571
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 1: And he'll be joining us from the best. He's the best.

583
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 1: one oh seven five the fan dot Com. All right,

584
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 1: it's been a busy week in the National Football League

585
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 1: and of course probably the biggest story to come out

586
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,880
Speaker 1: of this league wide was the purported the proposed trade

587
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:53,159
Speaker 1: that the Raiders and the Ravens we're gonna have with

588
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 1: Max Crosby going to Baltimore for two first round picks.

589
00:25:56,520 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 1: He goes there, they fail his physical. I guess multiple

590
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 1: doctors failed the physical. But while he was while they

591
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:05,959
Speaker 1: were in the middle of doing this, they did have

592
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,919
Speaker 1: Trey Hendrickson around and they were talking to him. It

593
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 1: comes out later they people say that looks fishy.

594
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 6: James.

595
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:14,680
Speaker 1: They say, oh, we were going to try to sign both.

596
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 1: Is there any way they could have signed both.

597
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:18,879
Speaker 5: I'm not sure, you know.

598
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 4: I've been knee deep in Colt's coverage in their cap space.

599
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 4: It sounds like it's one of those things, Jeff, where

600
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 4: it's probably too good to be true.

601
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:27,680
Speaker 5: You want to try to say face.

602
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,200
Speaker 4: But the bottom line is that Max Crosby is a

603
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 4: Raider and when you look at Trey Hendrickson, he gets

604
00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 4: the bag to become a Raven.

605
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,400
Speaker 1: The way they went about it, though, if they truly

606
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: knew that they wanted to back out of this thing

607
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 1: at one point in time, and even while he's in

608
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,439
Speaker 1: the building getting his physical Max Crosby, they're talking to

609
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 1: Trey Hendrickson, and now they're trying to spend it as

610
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,680
Speaker 1: they were looking at maybe signing both of them. Does

611
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,320
Speaker 1: that feel fishy enough that there's anything the NFL could

612
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 1: do or is it just other teams are like, hey,

613
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 1: don't deal with the Ravens because they're kind of Sketchyah.

614
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,679
Speaker 2: I don't think there's anything because that does the agreed

615
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 2: to terms period. Yeah, you know, that's the gray area

616
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,639
Speaker 2: of all of this. So yes, did they act in

617
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 2: good faith?

618
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 3: Probably not. You know, I brought it up yesterday on

619
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:09,680
Speaker 3: the show back.

620
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:13,640
Speaker 2: In twenty nineteen, I think it was the Ravens initially

621
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 2: signed Ryan Grant, a wide out who had never missed

622
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:20,399
Speaker 2: a game of the NFL, to a notable contract, and

623
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 2: then the whole agreed to terms a few days later

624
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 2: turned into a failed physical.

625
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 3: Ironically, the Colts.

626
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 2: Then signed Ryan Grant the next week, and in that time,

627
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 2: the Ravens ended up going out and.

628
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:35,919
Speaker 3: Getting Michael Crabtree.

629
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,760
Speaker 2: So if you can think back to twenty nineteen, at

630
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 2: the time, Michael Crabtree was viewed as a better white

631
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,520
Speaker 2: out than Ryan Grant, I would say Max Crosby is

632
00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:48,439
Speaker 2: probably viewed as a better player than Trey Hendrickson. Now, granted,

633
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,119
Speaker 2: that's two first round picks, so that's I think the

634
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 2: difference in this.

635
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:52,439
Speaker 3: It's they, I think got.

636
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 2: A little bit of a hey, wait a minute here,

637
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 2: If we can get Hendrickson and don't have to give

638
00:27:56,880 --> 00:28:00,159
Speaker 2: up two first round picks, let's maybe maneuver here as

639
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 2: a franchise.

640
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 3: But to me, again, this hasn't met major Colts Domino.

641
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,200
Speaker 2: And you know this news broke for us in the

642
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 2: nine o'clock hour yesterday, Trey Hendrickson to the Ravens and

643
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:12,439
Speaker 2: at the time, it was like, all right, where do

644
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 2: the Colts pivot at their biggest need? Now again, yesterday,

645
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 2: did we see a ton of edge rushers sign? Not really,

646
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 2: but we did see Bradley Chubb to the Bills and James,

647
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 2: I know that's a name that you had brought up before,

648
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 2: and yeah, I think naturally Colts fans know that name

649
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 2: because he was the fourth overall pick in the year

650
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 2: that they took Quint Nelson a couple spots later. And

651
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 2: Chubb has some obvious question marks, but he also has

652
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 2: some notable production and he signed what was it three

653
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 2: years I think just north of forty million, Yeah.

654
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 3: With Buffalo.

655
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,760
Speaker 2: So that's my question again, as we said here on Thursday,

656
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,719
Speaker 2: the Colts' biggest need this offseason, is it going to

657
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 2: get a substantial investment or not?

658
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 3: Because right now I'd argue it hasn't.

659
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do think that the big names are kind

660
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 4: of gone at this point. So what are you looking

661
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 4: at when it comes to adding to your edge rushers?

662
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 4: I know you proba, we have to add at least

663
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 4: one more I think starting caliber ed rusher in free agency.

664
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 5: Who that could be?

665
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 4: I can't really predict you right now, but to me,

666
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 4: does that place more emphasis on your day two picks?

667
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 4: Are you drafting the edge rusher on day two in

668
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 4: the second round or the third round to say hey,

669
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 4: you're coming in and starting possibly, which would be a

670
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 4: big ask I think, especially after you drafted a second

671
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 4: rounder last year defensive end j T two molo out

672
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 4: and he barely played. So the Coat still have a

673
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 4: lot of things I think figure out. But on top

674
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,560
Speaker 4: of that, I feel like they've you know, done what

675
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 4: they were supposed to do to retain certain players. But

676
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 4: the question I keep getting asked you all is Okay, well,

677
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 4: is this team on paper better than what we saw

678
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 4: last year? And right now I would say probably not,

679
00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 4: because you haven't filled it out yet. You have a

680
00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 4: lot more losses I would thinking to keep players leaving.

681
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 4: Then you have players who have stayed here. When I

682
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 4: say key players leaving, I never expected Daniel Jones or

683
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,920
Speaker 4: alap Peas to leave. Really, you know, Alex kind of

684
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 4: started with it a little bit. But now that those

685
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 4: two are back, I'm going to Okay, what changes about

686
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 4: your team? And That's what I'm getting at, like, what

687
00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 4: changes have you made that would indicate that you're getting better?

688
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 4: And right now and again it's incomplete, Like you know,

689
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,640
Speaker 4: you asked me to grade at Jeff, but maybe incompletely

690
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 4: probably a better term to use. But yeah, right now

691
00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 4: I could not see the culture a better team. You

692
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 4: have to kind of figure that out.

693
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, yes, I would agree on that.

694
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 2: We talked a little bit earlier about Michael Pittman Junior

695
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 2: and that aspect to it of like, okay, you know,

696
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 2: where is white out on a need to me? When

697
00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:33,640
Speaker 2: I hear the phrase like, oh, you can manufacture a

698
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 2: pass rush.

699
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 1: I think that's such a ludicrous comment.

700
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 5: Nah, sometimes you just need dude.

701
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:41,240
Speaker 2: You need dudes, right, and the Colts have been trying

702
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 2: to manufacture a pass rush for a decade, Like could

703
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 2: you get around not having Michael Pittman Junior. I think

704
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:49,440
Speaker 2: you have a better chance of getting around not having

705
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:52,239
Speaker 2: Michael Pittman Junior than you do manufacturing pass rush if

706
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 2: you want to compare those two, you know, Okay, I

707
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 2: little increase here in Tyler Warren, Hey, Alex would have

708
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 2: some growth. Hey, Josh Towns is a nice pass catcher.

709
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,800
Speaker 2: And frankly, I do trust Shane Sichins schematically more than

710
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 2: I trust what the Colts have done on the defensive

711
00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 2: side of the ball. So that's where I sit here.

712
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 2: And yeah, James, you know incomplete, you know, but if

713
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 2: we're giving daily updates on free agency, which we do

714
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 2: seven to n am Monday through Friday, right now, I

715
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 2: struggled to see where this team has actually gotten better.

716
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: Right right, that's a good point and that's where I

717
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:25,720
Speaker 1: was going to go, was my question last night. But

718
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 1: Ryan had the same question this morning, so I'll bring

719
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 1: it up from him on the text line, can you

720
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 1: explain to us how the Colts defense is getting better

721
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 1: with these signings, no money, no first round picks. Kind

722
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: of feels like they're just tread and water right now.

723
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 6: All I feel like is they've run it back and

724
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 6: they've just paid some guys more money, different names.

725
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 2: Right well, I don't know if i'd fully grewth running

726
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,960
Speaker 2: back because if you look at it starting wise, they quit,

727
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,400
Speaker 2: he pays gone, so you need a new defensive end starter.

728
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 2: Zire Franklin's gone, so you need a new linebacker starter.

729
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 2: And now Nick Cross is gone. And again that's just

730
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 2: on defense. Michael Pittman Junior's gone offense, Brad Smith's gone

731
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,719
Speaker 2: at right tackle. I mean they've actually had a lot

732
00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 2: of turnover from like actual starters.

733
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 3: But to your point, mark it the filling.

734
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 2: The voids of those five guys leaving. That's where you

735
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 2: haven't seen a lot of just out of the building newcomers.

736
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,320
Speaker 2: I'd argue, James, what they have signed?

737
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 3: What do we have? Three defensive linemen? And I guess

738
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 3: traded for one? Is that right?

739
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:30,440
Speaker 2: Ardent Key, Michael Clemens, the dude from Kansas City, Derek Noddy, Yeah,

740
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 2: and then Kolby Wooden.

741
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:36,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, they traded. That's really it of the newcomers, and I.

742
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 5: Those guys are like, we're gonna throw you in there

743
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 5: and start.

744
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,640
Speaker 3: I'd argue a lot of those are just death right.

745
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, And I would say yes, as far as running back,

746
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 6: they paid you know, Jones and Pierce guys more money

747
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 6: to come back. And then as far as you know,

748
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 6: ancillary pieces and all that, they just have filled holes

749
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 6: with other guys. But you don't really they're not really

750
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:56,600
Speaker 6: any game changers or anything like that.

751
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I'll see you're saying market it's kind of like, well,

752
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 4: they're different names, but they're pretty much the same caliber

753
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:04,840
Speaker 4: of player. And so where have you looked at too?

754
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,640
Speaker 4: Perhaps adds at a starter, but where have you truly

755
00:33:07,720 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 4: upgraded exactly? But speaking of you know, signing players back.

756
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 4: Alec Pierce did meet with the media yesterday, Mark I know,

757
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 4: I actually to pull this audio at the end of

758
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 4: his press conference, he was telling us, you know, how

759
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 4: big really throughout the whole press conference it was for

760
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,960
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones to be here and for him to join

761
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,480
Speaker 4: rejoin Daniel Jones to try to build even more on

762
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 4: what they had last year through those first ten games

763
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 4: of the season. And I got a chance to ask him,

764
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 4: why does he believe in Daniel Jones given everything? You know,

765
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 4: I know you had a great start to the year,

766
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 4: but you got the injury history. The players seem to

767
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:40,080
Speaker 4: love him, so I want to ask Alec that And

768
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 4: here's what he had to say.

769
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,959
Speaker 7: Obviously, if you just look at how we're playing, just

770
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 7: like the purely, like the numbers wise, and like how

771
00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 7: dominant we were early in the season, Like that's that's

772
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 7: the big thing and the kind of the obvious thing

773
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,160
Speaker 7: I think for everyone to look at. But then I

774
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,480
Speaker 7: would say, really just to just who he is as

775
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 7: a person and how he works and how he prepares,

776
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,440
Speaker 7: I think that is something that gives us like so

777
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 7: much confidence because I just know, like he's he is

778
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 7: going to be ready to go, and he's going to

779
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,719
Speaker 7: be prepared as well as he can for the game.

780
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 7: And I think obviously the quarterback is kind of like

781
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 7: the leader in the like the heart of the team,

782
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,480
Speaker 7: and I think we all as a team kind of

783
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 7: feed off that. And just like I feel like preparation

784
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 7: is confidence, you know, And I think that allows us

785
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 7: go into the game feeling confident because we just feel

786
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 7: prepared because it's like, I know, this guy knows exactly

787
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,319
Speaker 7: what he like, everything he needs to know. I like,

788
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 7: going into this game about the game plan, he could

789
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:36,839
Speaker 7: probably read the game plan to you, like just out

790
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 7: of his mind, so that I think that's the biggest thing.

791
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 1: There's no question that Daniel Jones was healthy last year.

792
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:49,280
Speaker 1: That offense was humming. You can talk about the quality

793
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 1: of opponent whatever you want, but they were. They were

794
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:54,720
Speaker 1: putting up historic numbers in those first seven eight weeks

795
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:58,240
Speaker 1: of the season. But once he got hurt and teams

796
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:00,600
Speaker 1: realized that he was hurt with that broke leg, and

797
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 1: then eventually we saw the season ending injury, it felt

798
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 1: like from that point on, teams are like Oh, okay,

799
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,840
Speaker 1: well he's playing left handed. Let's just shut down Jonathan

800
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 1: Taylor in the running game. And that was kind of

801
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:13,560
Speaker 1: where the offense went to die. And then, of course,

802
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,480
Speaker 1: once we lost him for the season, that was all

803
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 1: she wrote for the rest of the season. There were

804
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 1: no more wins coming to Coltsway. And so I don't

805
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,279
Speaker 1: think anybody's mad at Daniel Jones for what we saw

806
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,000
Speaker 1: those first eight to nine weeks of the season. Kevin,

807
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 1: The question is how much of a season do you

808
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 1: get out of this guy moving forward? Yeah?

809
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:33,600
Speaker 2: And you know again, I will probably sound like a

810
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:36,799
Speaker 2: broken record here over the next handful of months, But

811
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:38,760
Speaker 2: to me, it's two very different questions.

812
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 3: One when is he cleared one?

813
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,000
Speaker 1: Two? When is he himself?

814
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 5: Yeah?

815
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 4: And another point that Alc made throughout his presscomb by

816
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 4: the way, he was sharp.

817
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:49,920
Speaker 5: I mean he had on the green suit. He walked in.

818
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:51,560
Speaker 5: I said, boy, you look like money.

819
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 3: And I mean, my goodness, that was much looked like

820
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:54,000
Speaker 3: some money.

821
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 5: Well, and have to watch.

822
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,919
Speaker 4: That the Forest Buckner gave him for a thousand yard season, yes,

823
00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:00,640
Speaker 4: the ap and from when I understand that probably costs

824
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:03,319
Speaker 4: more than the houses most of us live in here

825
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 4: on one, seven to five to the fans. So Ali

826
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,680
Speaker 4: did also say the first half of the twenty twenty

827
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,520
Speaker 4: five season, I think we truly had something special going.

828
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 4: And I know we didn't finish the way we want

829
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 4: to finish, but I think I'm able to look back

830
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,200
Speaker 4: to that and look at how we were playing and

831
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,240
Speaker 4: know that we can be the best team in the NFL.

832
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,759
Speaker 5: And I was thinking to myself, boy.

833
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,720
Speaker 4: Even if you think that truly, you got to upgrade

834
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:30,280
Speaker 4: your defense, Like if you tell me you lost Michael

835
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,399
Speaker 4: Putman junior and you want to give Tyler Warren Moore

836
00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 4: targets and you're gonna draft a receiver like you said, Kevin,

837
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 4: I can kind of trust that vision because to Shane's credit,

838
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 4: as much as I've kind of criticized maybe the outward

839
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,719
Speaker 4: leadership in the figure ahead nature of the job that

840
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,719
Speaker 4: maybe sometimes he doesn't always meet in my opinion, the

841
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 4: man can call plays. He can make some things happen

842
00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,719
Speaker 4: with you know, I think where other play calls will

843
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 4: definitely lack. But defensively, you have not gotten any better.

844
00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,719
Speaker 4: And how do you just make sure that when you're

845
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:02,879
Speaker 4: in games and you talked about this, Kevin, like, can

846
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,239
Speaker 4: you win the ugly games every now and then. We're

847
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 4: not saying you're gonna go out there in landaggon offense

848
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:10,719
Speaker 4: every week. But boy, it's like last year when they

849
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 4: didn't score over twenty seven or whatever, things got rough

850
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 4: sometimes with this team trying to like get off the

851
00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:20,480
Speaker 4: mat and fight back and to ultimately get dig out

852
00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 4: and get a win.

853
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:23,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's really key, especially early this coming season,

854
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 2: to kind of go back to that point of if

855
00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 2: Jones has expected growing pains in September and October, Okay,

856
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,680
Speaker 2: that means you're not the historic offense you wore last

857
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:36,680
Speaker 2: year to start the season. That's understandable. Can you offset

858
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:39,600
Speaker 2: that with a little better defensive play? You know, can

859
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 2: the defense grab the extra grocery bag out of the trunk?

860
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,040
Speaker 2: Last year, the offense carried them all in to the

861
00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 2: kitchen and the little brother did nothing. Can now the

862
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 2: little brother actually grab a bag? Will you this little brother?

863
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 2: I felt like I was trying to be tough back

864
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:56,879
Speaker 2: in the day, and I'm like, oh, Ryan, I'm gonna

865
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 2: carry them all in. And then I like, you know,

866
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, there's green bean is rolling down

867
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 2: the driveway.

868
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:04,120
Speaker 1: It's a fan morning show.

869
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 3: With the paper and the doritos. You get everything out,

870
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 3: you get the edge.

871
00:38:08,680 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 1: Hey, those are essentials, right, you know what he didn't

872
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:13,759
Speaker 1: drop though, he did not drop the thin mints. Those

873
00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 1: were never dropped.

874
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:15,879
Speaker 3: And they are in the freezer right now.

875
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:17,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, they need to be dropped into trash camb But

876
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:19,240
Speaker 5: we can move on something.

877
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,960
Speaker 2: I do maybe eight o'clock hour, James, I thought I

878
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:24,720
Speaker 2: laughed a little bit in how you described the Daniel

879
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:29,000
Speaker 2: Jones contract earlier. I agree with you on it, but

880
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:31,719
Speaker 2: you know, looking more into that because I think a

881
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 2: lot of people saw the numbers and had a variety

882
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 2: of reactions to it. So I want to get into

883
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 2: that a little bit more because I do think, you know,

884
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,359
Speaker 2: part of it makes sense. Part of it is kind

885
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 2: of the rowdy of the situation that you're in. But

886
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 2: I think there honestly are some areas of that contract

887
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 2: I look at and I would say, Okay, that's fine,

888
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 2: and yeah, you know, I now the question becomes you, you,

889
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:55,719
Speaker 2: I assume have structured it in a way that you

890
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:56,880
Speaker 2: would like to do more.

891
00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:58,399
Speaker 1: What is the more?

892
00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:01,120
Speaker 2: That's where I sit here on this, and I do

893
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:04,560
Speaker 2: struggle to find exactly, Oh, where is that money going

894
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 2: to oh Stephen Holder reported they had offered twenty five

895
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 2: million for Trey Hendrickson.

896
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:12,799
Speaker 3: Okay, that didn't happen. Where's the twenty five million going?

897
00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 8: Like?

898
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,440
Speaker 3: You know that cap space is still with.

899
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 5: You say, can I raise my How are you?

900
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 3: How are you maneuvering with that?

901
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 1: Moving forward? All right? Also last night we had more basketball.

902
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,400
Speaker 1: Butler season comes to an end. They lose in the

903
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:29,360
Speaker 1: Big East Tournament against Providence and IU is the season

904
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,759
Speaker 1: coming to an end? They were a bubble team when

905
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 1: the night started. They lose again to Northwestern. They do

906
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,399
Speaker 1: not have a great resume, as you pointed out multiple times,

907
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:42,040
Speaker 1: Kevin Bowen. And if they don't make the NCAA tournament,

908
00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:44,560
Speaker 1: do they accept an n bid or do they just

909
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 1: start getting to work on next year's roster. There are

910
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 1: a lot of questions in Indiana right now, and none

911
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:49,760
Speaker 1: of them are happy questions.

912
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:54,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think one thing that you know, and

913
00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:55,759
Speaker 2: we'll see how the rest of the week plays out

914
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 2: with selection Sunday. You know, by all accounts, all the

915
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 2: bubble teams are losing, Like everybody's losing. I think we

916
00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 2: thought coming into this week Indiana needed to do what

917
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:07,760
Speaker 2: beat Northwestern and then beat Purdue.

918
00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:10,000
Speaker 3: I think there are a lot of people out there that.

919
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:11,879
Speaker 2: Have viewed the bubble this week, and we'll and we're

920
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:13,920
Speaker 2: still a little early in the bid stealing, you know,

921
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 2: maam Ohio place today at eleven am. I think Saint

922
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:19,440
Speaker 2: Louis gets started with their conference tournament there today or tomorrow.

923
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 2: You know, bubble teams are gonna want those programs to

924
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:25,800
Speaker 2: win because they would, you know, earn their conferences another

925
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 2: bid if they were to lose. But like it almost

926
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:31,320
Speaker 2: seems like Indiana would have got in if they just

927
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:35,319
Speaker 2: beat Northwestern. Feels that way, Like it's that it's that

928
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:38,279
Speaker 2: week of a bubble, And dear Lord, if there was

929
00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:42,360
Speaker 2: ever a year where we do not need to be

930
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 2: expanding the tournament. Can you imagine if we expanded this

931
00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:49,320
Speaker 2: thing to like seventy six and you're including Indiana outright,

932
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:53,280
Speaker 2: and you're including what Stanford, New Mexico and Alburns record,

933
00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 2: Auburn's like sixteen and fourteen. I mean, it's just it's

934
00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 2: unbelievable that this is a debate to me in trying

935
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:02,600
Speaker 2: to whatever, Oh, you have a resume that's earned a

936
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:05,440
Speaker 2: spot in the dance here, so I think that just

937
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:08,439
Speaker 2: kind of adds to the frustration to it all. But yeah,

938
00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:11,400
Speaker 2: hearing Darren DeVries try to pitch his team to the

939
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:13,440
Speaker 2: committee last night was one of the more depressing answers

940
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:14,319
Speaker 2: I've heard in quite a while.

941
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:15,759
Speaker 3: He went strength to schedule on us.

942
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 1: Yeah. I was looking at Joelnardi's updated bracket after last

943
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 1: night's play, and two teams caught my eye that have

944
00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,799
Speaker 1: struggled lately that at one point in time have been

945
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 1: ranked in as high as number one are in the

946
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 1: top five. Not only is Purdue now on a four

947
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,799
Speaker 1: line James as they start the Big Ten Tournament play

948
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:36,799
Speaker 1: tonight against Northwestern, but Kansas is now a four seed.

949
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, they've had some struggles as of late, and I

950
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:41,600
Speaker 4: think age of the bands, and by the way, is

951
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 4: running away with that number one pick talk he is

952
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 4: balling right now.

953
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:50,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, no question about that. So Yeah, Purdue gets underway

954
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: tonight six point thirty against Northwestern Kevin. They've lost four

955
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:56,719
Speaker 1: of their last six. Big Tin Turn would be a great,

956
00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 1: great place to kind of get your bounce back, get

957
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 1: your vibe going in, or as some people around here say,

958
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:02,960
Speaker 1: gets your juju back.

959
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:05,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kind of funny.

960
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:07,680
Speaker 2: I mean, last year, Pdue, I think I got smoked

961
00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 2: by Michigan in the Big ten tournament and then played

962
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:11,399
Speaker 2: very well in the NCATE tournament and we're shot away

963
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:13,680
Speaker 2: from going to the Elite eight. So I'm always kind

964
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:15,520
Speaker 2: of torn on how the conference tournament.

965
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 1: Sets you up.

966
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,200
Speaker 2: There's part of me it's like, Yeahdue needs a little

967
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:20,120
Speaker 2: bit of a confidence Joel, particularly on the defensive end

968
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 2: of the floor. Then I'm thinking, is it the best

969
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 2: thing in the world to play three games in three

970
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 2: days and you know where your leg's at and a

971
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:30,160
Speaker 2: you know, turn around next week. So I find myself

972
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,799
Speaker 2: a little bit torn on the old NCAA tournament, you know,

973
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 2: or I should say conference tournament. How much that can

974
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:38,080
Speaker 2: do for your for your team? But right now, you know,

975
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:39,920
Speaker 2: I do think being on the four lone like, if

976
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:43,319
Speaker 2: you want to look at it, the one seeds look

977
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:48,879
Speaker 2: to be very impressive, Michigan Duke a little banged up Arizona,

978
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,160
Speaker 2: So you know, if you're going to play the three

979
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,880
Speaker 2: seed versus the four seed, I do think there is

980
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:55,840
Speaker 2: some difference there. You know, if you can be the

981
00:42:55,880 --> 00:42:58,600
Speaker 2: three seed that keeps you away from the one seed

982
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:01,239
Speaker 2: until the Elite eight, if you're and you know, big, big,

983
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:05,239
Speaker 2: big picture and very very hopeful here. You obviously let

984
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 2: a little bit more of margin for air possibly creep

985
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:11,480
Speaker 2: in there. So yeah, six thirty tonight for Pridue Bruce Weber.

986
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:12,880
Speaker 2: You said nine to fifteen, Mark.

987
00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:14,080
Speaker 6: Yep, nine fifteen.

988
00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:15,840
Speaker 3: Gosh, he was a busy man yesterday.

989
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,080
Speaker 1: I love hearing him talk. I just like him. Oh,

990
00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:19,799
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan.

991
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 3: He's introduced outstanding.

992
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,000
Speaker 1: All right. Coming up at a moment, we'll talk more

993
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:25,360
Speaker 1: about the National Football League, cults, free agency, more in

994
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:28,480
Speaker 1: college basketball as Purdue gets rolling in the Big Ten Tournament.

995
00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,440
Speaker 1: Later on tonight. It all comes your way. Next it's

996
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:33,480
Speaker 1: ninety three five and one oh seven five the fan?

997
00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:36,880
Speaker 3: Do you still have your juju or shimmer to do this?

998
00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:46,280
Speaker 3: Kill him? It's the off season.

999
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 1: Let's keep it tall, y'all. Ain't doing my man, and

1000
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 1: don't check your watch. You know the time cold World?

1001
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:53,360
Speaker 1: Kill a can you were.

1002
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:59,880
Speaker 8: Listening to a fan mooins show one, three, five A round?

1003
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:01,479
Speaker 5: What you sold out? Triple debt.

1004
00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:03,480
Speaker 1: I can't believe these clowns.

1005
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:04,280
Speaker 3: Look at everybody.

1006
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,359
Speaker 1: See problem is sometimes Mark, I don't want to talk

1007
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:07,719
Speaker 1: when I hear your stuff. I just want to let

1008
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: the music roll. You know what I'm saying.

1009
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:10,440
Speaker 6: We can do that.

1010
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 4: Shut out to Jay Cole, make sure when the beef

1011
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,440
Speaker 4: pops off next time, you stay in the beef. Okay,

1012
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:18,160
Speaker 4: no peace treaties.

1013
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:21,520
Speaker 1: Busy day in the world of sports around Indianapolis today,

1014
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:24,160
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones will be at least he's scheduled to meet

1015
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,480
Speaker 1: with the media. What about twelve thirty this afternoon.

1016
00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:28,000
Speaker 5: James Yes, says twelve.

1017
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:29,759
Speaker 4: I'll probably be a little bit after that because he's

1018
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:31,799
Speaker 4: got to come in and sign If he assume me

1019
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,440
Speaker 4: he didn't sign yesterday and talk to a few people,

1020
00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:36,319
Speaker 4: and he'll talk to us and we'll bring it to

1021
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,279
Speaker 4: you here on these otwears, I assume yes.

1022
00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 1: And then later on today Daniel Jones expected to chat

1023
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:44,400
Speaker 1: with JMV too, so stay tuned for that one. A

1024
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:45,560
Speaker 1: little bit later on today.

1025
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:47,319
Speaker 4: I got to get JMV to ask him about his

1026
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:49,719
Speaker 4: jumper because from what I've heard in the locker room,

1027
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,600
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones has some hoop game. One of his brothers

1028
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:55,280
Speaker 4: I think played at Duke Right one of those programs.

1029
00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:58,200
Speaker 1: So yeah, the whole family is very athletically inclined. From

1030
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:01,520
Speaker 1: that Charlotte area. And is legendary for just being a

1031
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:03,000
Speaker 1: stud athlete in high school.

1032
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:06,920
Speaker 2: It's funny, James, you mentioned earlier about the Daniel Jones contract.

1033
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:10,480
Speaker 3: I don't hate the contract, and you know.

1034
00:45:10,880 --> 00:45:12,239
Speaker 5: That's a good thing. That's a good start.

1035
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:14,839
Speaker 2: It is a good start. I don't know if it's

1036
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:16,279
Speaker 2: a little backhanded compliment. E.

1037
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,319
Speaker 4: Well, we talked about that yet the other day. You know,

1038
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:19,520
Speaker 4: if you don't love it, you don't hate it.

1039
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:22,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, And honestly, that's kind of how I view the

1040
00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:24,120
Speaker 2: whole Daniel Jones situation.

1041
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 3: Like the Colts have backed themselves into a corner at quarterback.

1042
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:31,160
Speaker 3: That's just the reality of it.

1043
00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:36,000
Speaker 2: You royally missed on Anthony Richardson. You then have traded

1044
00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:39,120
Speaker 2: away your two first round picks, so you're not in

1045
00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:43,320
Speaker 2: this great position of leverage at the most important position

1046
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:46,280
Speaker 2: in sports. And now you have Daniel Jones. And credit

1047
00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:49,960
Speaker 2: to the Colts, they found success with him, but it

1048
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:50,840
Speaker 2: happened in a contract.

1049
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 1: Here.

1050
00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:54,280
Speaker 2: Then he tears his achilles and now the question becomes

1051
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:56,440
Speaker 2: what type of contract do you hand him? And like

1052
00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:59,439
Speaker 2: you know, when we debated the Jones contract, I wanted

1053
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:00,319
Speaker 2: to guarantee in the.

1054
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:01,279
Speaker 1: First two years.

1055
00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 2: Well, what we have we got the guarantees in the

1056
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:06,640
Speaker 2: first two years, I believe. Is it fifty of the

1057
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:09,320
Speaker 2: sixty million in the first year, James, Is that right? Yes,

1058
00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:11,759
Speaker 2: so honestly, I mean you could look at it as

1059
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:15,160
Speaker 2: more just like a one year deal. You know, there's

1060
00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:17,719
Speaker 2: a significant cap hit for the second year. But in

1061
00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:20,360
Speaker 2: my opinion of Daniel Jones has a really really promising

1062
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:22,960
Speaker 2: first year, you probably try to extend him again.

1063
00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:24,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, next year.

1064
00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:29,640
Speaker 2: But you know, when I saw the contract, when I

1065
00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:32,360
Speaker 2: thought to you know, all of it playing out in

1066
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:35,319
Speaker 2: two years worth up to one hundred million. You know,

1067
00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:37,799
Speaker 2: if you cut the base of the contract in half, it.

1068
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:42,080
Speaker 3: Breaks down to like forty four million annually.

1069
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:45,440
Speaker 2: And I don't know if that registers everybody out there,

1070
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:47,880
Speaker 2: but basically forty four million is smack dab in the

1071
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:52,080
Speaker 2: middle of the NFL for quarterbacks. Yeah, which you know

1072
00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:54,200
Speaker 2: when you sit here, and yes, my poems are up

1073
00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:56,759
Speaker 2: in the air right now. If you told me yesterday, hey,

1074
00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:58,839
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones's Contract's going to put him in the middle

1075
00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,960
Speaker 2: of the NFL starting quarterback, I'd probably say, you know what,

1076
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:05,120
Speaker 2: I'm a two year deal. There's a lot worse things

1077
00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:08,719
Speaker 2: in the world. I don't hate it. To steal a

1078
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:13,200
Speaker 2: phrase from James Boyd, I honestly thought, Mark, when I

1079
00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,480
Speaker 2: saw the contract, I thought to like the Larry David

1080
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:18,600
Speaker 2: giff you know, the one I'm talking about, Yeah, where

1081
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:20,520
Speaker 2: he's kind of like, kind of smiling.

1082
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:26,520
Speaker 3: Kind of yah maybe, yeah, you know, like that's kind

1083
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:29,520
Speaker 3: of how I was with it. So yeah, you know,

1084
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:31,439
Speaker 3: I'm fine with it.

1085
00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:37,040
Speaker 2: It's not ideal ideal, but if you're trying without two

1086
00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:39,720
Speaker 2: first round picks in the next two years, to find

1087
00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:43,040
Speaker 2: a semblance of Sam Darnold, which I think is largely

1088
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,200
Speaker 2: what NFL teams are trying to do. If we can't

1089
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:48,600
Speaker 2: get the young promising rookie contract quarterback, which right now

1090
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:50,440
Speaker 2: seems to be out the window for the Colts, that

1091
00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:53,600
Speaker 2: is the best avenue in my opinion. If you can't

1092
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:57,360
Speaker 2: do that, then this is the alternative. And we'll see.

1093
00:47:57,560 --> 00:48:01,120
Speaker 2: I'm not holding my breath, but it makes some sense.

1094
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:03,239
Speaker 6: Can you do your Larry David impression again real quick?

1095
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:13,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, now you're talking that's pretty much.

1096
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,080
Speaker 6: Every one's really pretty good.

1097
00:48:16,840 --> 00:48:19,520
Speaker 4: But this is the breakdown from over the Cap, which

1098
00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:22,120
Speaker 4: is one of the websites we use when it comes

1099
00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:25,319
Speaker 4: to analyzing contracts, and they have this cap hit in

1100
00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:28,720
Speaker 4: the first year this upcoming season to be fourteen point

1101
00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:32,000
Speaker 4: six million, which is a pretty good number to be at.

1102
00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:34,880
Speaker 4: That should give you some flexibility to pursue other players.

1103
00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:38,280
Speaker 4: But again, what players do you have out there left

1104
00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:40,520
Speaker 4: that you really want to pursue that will be worth

1105
00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:42,560
Speaker 4: that kind of price tag? And at this point when

1106
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:44,799
Speaker 4: it comes to edge rushers, there aren't a lot of

1107
00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:48,440
Speaker 4: big names out there in my opinion, So again, they

1108
00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:49,600
Speaker 4: have to spend some of that money.

1109
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:50,520
Speaker 5: So who do they spend it on?

1110
00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:52,759
Speaker 4: And again, do you go out there and at least

1111
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:54,879
Speaker 4: go get a starting caliber defensive end. I think that's

1112
00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:57,239
Speaker 4: like the next thing on the list, and perhaps even

1113
00:48:57,239 --> 00:48:59,640
Speaker 4: a linebacker as well, because those two areas you have

1114
00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:02,480
Speaker 4: really dress yet. But again, as far as Daniel Jones

1115
00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:06,239
Speaker 4: in his contract, it's a fine number, and again I

1116
00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:08,080
Speaker 4: go back to it being a two year deal essentially,

1117
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:14,960
Speaker 4: That to me still allows you some organizational flexibility to

1118
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 4: know that, Okay, if this goes poorly, he doesn't play well,

1119
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 4: or that half a season we saw didn't really go

1120
00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:23,920
Speaker 4: the way he wanted to in this upcoming season or

1121
00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:26,719
Speaker 4: the year after, you at least are able to draft

1122
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:28,799
Speaker 4: a quarterback again in twenty twenty eight and have that

1123
00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:31,040
Speaker 4: contract off your books. And I would still think that

1124
00:49:31,080 --> 00:49:33,600
Speaker 4: at that point a lot of folks aren't here. But

1125
00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 4: at least you haven't handicapped yourself. Probably she's a better

1126
00:49:37,120 --> 00:49:39,760
Speaker 4: term than that. At least you haven't you held yourself

1127
00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:42,040
Speaker 4: back for the future when it comes to twenty twenty eight.

1128
00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 1: All right, we'll talk more about the cults, free agency,

1129
00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:47,040
Speaker 1: the NFL in general throughout the morning, but right now,

1130
00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:49,640
Speaker 1: some college basketball. Tough night for Indiana last night they

1131
00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:53,200
Speaker 1: lose to Northwestern. It's the seventh time in a row

1132
00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:57,400
Speaker 1: Northwestern has beaten Indiana. They find themselves probably on the

1133
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:01,000
Speaker 1: outside looking in as an NCAA, a bubble team at

1134
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:03,400
Speaker 1: this point in time. Phone lines have been open all morning,

1135
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:05,319
Speaker 1: and I know Darren has been waiting patiently for a

1136
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:10,600
Speaker 1: while or two. Garrett dropped off. Okay, yeah, because a

1137
00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 1: second ago I thought you told me he was ready

1138
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:13,400
Speaker 1: to go. But I know that there are a lot

1139
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:15,600
Speaker 1: of folks that are upset. And I don't know if

1140
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:18,040
Speaker 1: you were checking social media out at all before he

1141
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:21,640
Speaker 1: went to bed last night, Kevin, But people are not happy.

1142
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,240
Speaker 1: I you basketball fans, some of them are just ready

1143
00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:25,840
Speaker 1: to start all over again, which I think would be

1144
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:29,200
Speaker 1: a terrible idea. But people are the natives are restless,

1145
00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:30,000
Speaker 1: to say the least.

1146
00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:31,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, they should be pissed again.

1147
00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:34,000
Speaker 2: I don't think there was a college basketball program that

1148
00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:36,400
Speaker 2: has more investment in it and gets less out of

1149
00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:39,520
Speaker 2: that investment than what we've seen from EU the last decade.

1150
00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:44,520
Speaker 2: I'm half serious, have joking when the biggest March Madness

1151
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:46,480
Speaker 2: memory for IU over the last ten years is when

1152
00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:50,080
Speaker 2: that cheerleader climbed on the male cheerleader's shoulders and reached

1153
00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:52,160
Speaker 2: up and got the ball off the top of the back.

1154
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:54,480
Speaker 2: She might have used one of those brooms to get

1155
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:56,040
Speaker 2: the ball. I think I was when Saint Mary's was

1156
00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:59,719
Speaker 2: blowing Indian out If I remember correctly, they're in the

1157
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:02,680
Speaker 2: in the tournament, so that's a reality. I mean, Wyoming

1158
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:06,520
Speaker 2: a playing win in Dayton and what a Kent State

1159
00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:09,960
Speaker 2: Round one victory, and I believe that's it in eight

1160
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:13,919
Speaker 2: missed tournament assuming they missed this year's tournament there. So yeah,

1161
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:17,360
Speaker 2: how about Nick Martinell Nick Martin Martin Nelly for Northwestern

1162
00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:20,320
Speaker 2: and easy for me to say, uh, did he go perfect?

1163
00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:22,400
Speaker 2: Was he seven to zero against Indiana in his college career.

1164
00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:24,759
Speaker 1: He just loves playing Indiana, like he gets up for

1165
00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:27,879
Speaker 1: that game. He was giving them buckets watching the game.

1166
00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:30,400
Speaker 2: And Northwestern was missing one of the more important players

1167
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:33,440
Speaker 2: last night in Aaronton Bage, who was key in the

1168
00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:34,840
Speaker 2: winning Bloomington.

1169
00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:36,879
Speaker 5: Right, and again, can you take advantage of a break

1170
00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:37,200
Speaker 5: you get?

1171
00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:40,520
Speaker 2: And you what the bit massive, just a massive break

1172
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:43,360
Speaker 2: that they get there, And yeah, I mean your biggest

1173
00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:45,840
Speaker 2: half of the season and you just lay a total

1174
00:51:46,040 --> 00:51:48,759
Speaker 2: total egg there in Northwestern. Really, I mean that wasn't

1175
00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:50,799
Speaker 2: very competitive in the final five to seven minutes of

1176
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:53,600
Speaker 2: that game. Really, I don't know if Indiana got it

1177
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:55,880
Speaker 2: to single digits there once they.

1178
00:51:56,200 --> 00:52:00,120
Speaker 3: Built that lead. So yeah, I mean, Darren, Darren, I'm

1179
00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:00,560
Speaker 3: Ryan Carr.

1180
00:52:00,600 --> 00:52:02,520
Speaker 2: I might go back to the reasons say yeah, I

1181
00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 2: can get a little bump and pay after watching your

1182
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:06,239
Speaker 2: team operate here for the last couple of weeks here,

1183
00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:09,760
Speaker 2: because there's a whole lot of roster rebuilding that's needed.

1184
00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:13,759
Speaker 1: Man. All I know is they kept showing Nick Martinelli's

1185
00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:17,319
Speaker 1: mom and she was giddy with excitement, and they had

1186
00:52:17,400 --> 00:52:20,080
Speaker 1: Jake west On after the after the game, and Rever

1187
00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:25,120
Speaker 1: Revson uh and Bruce Webber interviewing him and just it

1188
00:52:25,200 --> 00:52:26,680
Speaker 1: was not the night I thought we were gonna have

1189
00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:28,640
Speaker 1: for Indiana. I really thought that.

1190
00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:30,840
Speaker 5: They asked you, why did you think it would be different?

1191
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:34,560
Speaker 1: At some point Indiana is going to beat Northwestern.

1192
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:41,000
Speaker 4: Man, I was about say, now, it's not a compelling

1193
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:42,239
Speaker 4: Chris Collins.

1194
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:44,080
Speaker 3: He who's your daddy?

1195
00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:49,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's rugged. So what I mean he's gonna have

1196
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:53,320
Speaker 1: to start all over, almost completely from scratch anyway, right, Well, yeah.

1197
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:55,319
Speaker 2: And we talked about this a little bit earlier in

1198
00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:59,200
Speaker 2: this show. I call it a wasted first year. You

1199
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:01,719
Speaker 2: know when you hear head coaches take over at programs, Hey,

1200
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:04,000
Speaker 2: I need to establish my culture. Hey we're gonna have

1201
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:06,600
Speaker 2: some early growing pains when you look at it, of

1202
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,880
Speaker 2: their top seven guys in minutes this season, six of

1203
00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:14,200
Speaker 2: them are now gone. What internal developed, Like Trent Sisley

1204
00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:18,000
Speaker 2: all of a sudden became absolutely in the doghouse. And

1205
00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:20,359
Speaker 2: I mean he was your promising freshman that actually played

1206
00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:22,880
Speaker 2: a good amount early in the season. So you know

1207
00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:26,800
Speaker 2: when you talk about like roster growth, player development, Hey,

1208
00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:30,000
Speaker 2: we're doing it my way, not Mike Woodson's way. Well,

1209
00:53:30,239 --> 00:53:33,759
Speaker 2: it's gonna look very different next season, especially for their

1210
00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:37,120
Speaker 2: frontline guys. I mean, they're gonna have to be portal hungry,

1211
00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:41,200
Speaker 2: and I think in this era it is a little

1212
00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:43,480
Speaker 2: difficult to strike that balance as a first year head coach.

1213
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:45,000
Speaker 2: Like if you're Darren DeVries, You're like, oh wait, I

1214
00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:46,440
Speaker 2: have ten million to spend on a roster.

1215
00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:48,919
Speaker 3: Oh man, you know, I don't want to waste that money.

1216
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:50,879
Speaker 2: But again, where's the balance on like getting some guys

1217
00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:53,719
Speaker 2: that are more of a two or three year sort

1218
00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:54,720
Speaker 2: of portal pieces.

1219
00:53:54,800 --> 00:53:54,960
Speaker 1: You know.

1220
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:57,880
Speaker 2: For those that have watched Arizona this year, Arizona one

1221
00:53:57,920 --> 00:53:58,880
Speaker 2: of their best players.

1222
00:53:58,680 --> 00:53:59,400
Speaker 3: Jayden Bradley.

1223
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:02,200
Speaker 2: They got him to transfer, I believe after his first

1224
00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:05,000
Speaker 2: year from Alabama and now he's been a part of

1225
00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:07,680
Speaker 2: their program for I think it's now three years. So

1226
00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:10,239
Speaker 2: in a way, he's almost like you've recruited him out

1227
00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:13,400
Speaker 2: of high school. And I think finding more of that

1228
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:18,200
Speaker 2: is key when you're taking over a program. I get

1229
00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:20,320
Speaker 2: you can't just all of a sudden high school class

1230
00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:22,799
Speaker 2: it up when you get hired in mid March, but

1231
00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:24,960
Speaker 2: you don't have to go strictly one year mercenaries.

1232
00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:27,080
Speaker 3: And that's what he went with. You know, he went

1233
00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:28,320
Speaker 3: with the mid major all stars.

1234
00:54:28,520 --> 00:54:30,640
Speaker 2: He went with the one year guys, and outside of

1235
00:54:30,680 --> 00:54:34,400
Speaker 2: Nick Dorn, everybody's gone, So now you're really kind of

1236
00:54:34,400 --> 00:54:37,279
Speaker 2: starting over again. And now he's got a little bit

1237
00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:39,400
Speaker 2: more of a high school class coming up here in

1238
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:41,239
Speaker 2: twenty twenty six, which I think is worth pointing out,

1239
00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:43,120
Speaker 2: and that's key. I think you have to find a

1240
00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:45,560
Speaker 2: balance and if you want to optimism for IU fans.

1241
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,520
Speaker 2: Darren Devreez has been very public with all of these comments,

1242
00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:51,400
Speaker 2: like he knows they screwed up. I mean, he was

1243
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 2: adamant like, we have got to get more balance with

1244
00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:57,000
Speaker 2: our roster, we have got to get more front court heavy,

1245
00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:59,400
Speaker 2: like I mean, he has been very acknowledging of it,

1246
00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:02,640
Speaker 2: so you know that, I think is important. I would

1247
00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:05,279
Speaker 2: argue the previous coach was a bit too stubborn with

1248
00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:09,160
Speaker 2: his comments and his actions here, so we'll see how

1249
00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:11,600
Speaker 2: that impacts Daren devrees and Ryan Carr's action.

1250
00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:12,680
Speaker 5: I'll say this real quick.

1251
00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:16,360
Speaker 4: I do think the lack of attention to maybe the

1252
00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:19,640
Speaker 4: physicality of the Big ten was a little shocking, and

1253
00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:22,800
Speaker 4: it really showed up this season when you got deeper

1254
00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:26,200
Speaker 4: into play. I just felt like, you know, who doesn't

1255
00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:29,280
Speaker 4: know in the Big team. You need some dudes, you need.

1256
00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:29,640
Speaker 5: Some big men.

1257
00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:32,759
Speaker 4: I mean, it's it's kind of, in my opinion, a

1258
00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:35,680
Speaker 4: bit of a throwback to how basketball used to be

1259
00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:37,640
Speaker 4: compared to where we see it at now in the NBA,

1260
00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:39,759
Speaker 4: where it's, you know, you got guys scoring a three points,

1261
00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:41,759
Speaker 4: they're shooting a bunch of threes, whereas it the Big

1262
00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:43,960
Speaker 4: Ten is I think more traditional of the sport where

1263
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:48,040
Speaker 4: they saw the traditional bigs and you need that to survive.

1264
00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:50,839
Speaker 4: I mean, I remember joking with Tyrus Halliburton a couple

1265
00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:52,719
Speaker 4: of years ago about this because he's making fun of

1266
00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:55,320
Speaker 4: some Big Ten team getting knocked out of the tournament,

1267
00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:57,040
Speaker 4: and he was saying, you know, I don't want to

1268
00:55:57,080 --> 00:55:59,919
Speaker 4: go play that, you know, slow, physical basketball that's born.

1269
00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:02,080
Speaker 4: But that's what it is in the Big Ten. And

1270
00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:04,120
Speaker 4: so I'm not saying that has to be your entire identity,

1271
00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:05,680
Speaker 4: but it's got to be part of it if you

1272
00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:08,160
Speaker 4: want to survive, and not only survive, but thrive.

1273
00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:11,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think Joe on the text line kind

1274
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:13,520
Speaker 1: of holds the sentiment that a lot of Who's Your

1275
00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:15,799
Speaker 1: Basketball fans have right now. He says there shouldn't be

1276
00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:18,719
Speaker 1: any further bubble talk about IU. They don't deserve a

1277
00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:21,239
Speaker 1: spot in the tournament, and as an IU fan, I

1278
00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:23,759
Speaker 1: don't want to see any more pathetic basketball from then

1279
00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:26,080
Speaker 1: Joe from New Albany listening down there, and.

1280
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:28,800
Speaker 3: I think a lot of people would like that text

1281
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:29,800
Speaker 3: from Joe if they could.

1282
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:32,520
Speaker 6: Listener called in. He said, what ends first? Are you

1283
00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:38,000
Speaker 6: beating Northwestern or Indianapolis Colts beating Jacksonville Jaguars And.

1284
00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:41,960
Speaker 4: Joe, Oh, I'm going to roll with the former of

1285
00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:43,920
Speaker 4: those options. I don't think the Colts will ever win

1286
00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:46,279
Speaker 4: in Jacksonville again. I've been down there too many times.

1287
00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:47,520
Speaker 4: I've seen too many weird things.

1288
00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:51,120
Speaker 3: Mark the fact that, like that's a question, it's just absurd.

1289
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:52,760
Speaker 5: Man.

1290
00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:55,839
Speaker 6: Maybe once Jacksonville gets their renovations done, maybe that will

1291
00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:56,400
Speaker 6: be the janju.

1292
00:56:57,280 --> 00:56:59,799
Speaker 5: The last time we went to Jacksonville, Daniel Jones tore hit.

1293
00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:02,919
Speaker 3: Of the game in London too face.

1294
00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:05,400
Speaker 4: I mean yes, right, So technically they lost on the

1295
00:57:05,480 --> 00:57:08,600
Speaker 4: road on the road against the Jacksonville Jaguars at is.

1296
00:57:08,840 --> 00:57:10,919
Speaker 5: It's remarkable they went there and didn't score.

1297
00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:13,520
Speaker 4: A few years ago when Matt Ryan was the quarterback,

1298
00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:14,840
Speaker 4: did not score a single point.

1299
00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:17,000
Speaker 5: So yeah, I'm never gonna pick them win.

1300
00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:21,240
Speaker 1: Now since the last semi successful season the Colts had

1301
00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:24,800
Speaker 1: going to the AOC Championship game, Andrew Luck, what has

1302
00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:26,920
Speaker 1: been the low point? Do you think what is the

1303
00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:28,320
Speaker 1: absolute rock bottom?

1304
00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:31,960
Speaker 4: Ben when they hired Jeff Saturday and do the biggest

1305
00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:32,800
Speaker 4: NFL leading.

1306
00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:36,280
Speaker 1: In NFL history against the Vikings, right.

1307
00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:39,280
Speaker 4: Yes, Blue a thirty three point lead, That to me

1308
00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:40,040
Speaker 4: was the lowest point.

1309
00:57:40,240 --> 00:57:40,439
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1310
00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:43,840
Speaker 2: I would agree with James that the twenty twenty one

1311
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:48,320
Speaker 2: season of having to win in your end games and

1312
00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:50,040
Speaker 2: you lose to an interim head coach and the Raiders

1313
00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:52,000
Speaker 2: in your own building, and then you lose to Jacksonville

1314
00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:54,680
Speaker 2: and they got smoked in Jacksonville that last game in.

1315
00:57:54,680 --> 00:57:55,800
Speaker 1: The twenty twenty one season.

1316
00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:58,960
Speaker 2: Even in Jacksonville's garbage that year, I was trying to think, like,

1317
00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:00,880
Speaker 2: was it Doug Morone? And I have no idea who

1318
00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:02,800
Speaker 2: like Jacksonville's head coach was. Hell, it might have been

1319
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:07,320
Speaker 2: Urban Meyer. No, I wasn't Urban. Urban was grinding on

1320
00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:09,760
Speaker 2: that woman and got and got canned uh quite early.

1321
00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:12,840
Speaker 3: That that is that would be a runner.

1322
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:15,440
Speaker 1: Up to James's. I did not have Urban Meyer in

1323
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:18,000
Speaker 1: the bar with that young woman on my Bengo card

1324
00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:19,160
Speaker 1: today Kevin. Good job out of you.

1325
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:21,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know how young she was, but good

1326
00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:21,560
Speaker 3: for urban.

1327
00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:25,720
Speaker 5: That's one way to put.

1328
00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:28,040
Speaker 2: By the way, speaking of mid Ohio, I guess if

1329
00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:30,280
Speaker 2: we want to continue down this path here, uh mayem

1330
00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:33,080
Speaker 2: Ohio at eleven am today, they will get started in

1331
00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:35,480
Speaker 2: the MAC tournament. They've got you Mass, you Mass gave

1332
00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:39,320
Speaker 2: them a hell of a game again, had a ton

1333
00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:40,720
Speaker 2: of close games. I want to say, they're eight No

1334
00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:44,400
Speaker 2: One possession games. So they will get started with the

1335
00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:48,120
Speaker 2: MAC tournament coming up today at eleven.

1336
00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:49,360
Speaker 5: Well, they better not lose. According to a lot of

1337
00:58:49,400 --> 00:58:50,600
Speaker 5: people like Bruce Pearl.

1338
00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:55,280
Speaker 1: Can anybody take anything? Bruce Perl says, seriously anymore Seriously,

1339
00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:58,520
Speaker 1: he's kind of become a caricature. I like Bruce Pearl.

1340
00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:00,720
Speaker 1: He used to work with him and he was always

1341
00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:02,720
Speaker 1: nice to me when we work together on serious XEM

1342
00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:06,200
Speaker 1: college sports. But some of the stuff, it feels like

1343
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:08,160
Speaker 1: he's just trying to make stuff up to get some

1344
00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:09,240
Speaker 1: attention these days.

1345
00:59:09,280 --> 00:59:10,960
Speaker 6: I liked him better when he was shirtless in like

1346
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:12,120
Speaker 6: the fans section.

1347
00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:13,200
Speaker 3: When he was at Tennessee.

1348
00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:17,960
Speaker 1: Uh huh, that was great. Oh crazy crazy stuff, all right, Mark,

1349
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:18,800
Speaker 1: let's check it down.

1350
00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:23,440
Speaker 8: The Morning Checkdown on ninety sweet five and one oh

1351
00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:24,640
Speaker 8: seven five the Fan.

1352
00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:27,360
Speaker 1: All right, we'll start with college basketball right now. Are

1353
00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:30,640
Speaker 1: you losing again to Northwestern last night? Seven games in

1354
00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:33,160
Speaker 1: a row they've lost to the Wildcats. They go from

1355
00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:35,600
Speaker 1: a double digit lead in the first half, the double

1356
00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:38,959
Speaker 1: digits down within ten minutes to go in the game,

1357
00:59:39,040 --> 00:59:41,840
Speaker 1: and they lose. Did they even take an nit bit

1358
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:43,280
Speaker 1: at this point in time or do they just start

1359
00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:44,240
Speaker 1: working towards next year?

1360
00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:46,000
Speaker 3: Devin, I would think they would not.

1361
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:50,000
Speaker 1: Northwestern will play tonight against Purdue at six point thirty,

1362
00:59:50,040 --> 00:59:52,040
Speaker 1: and Purdue needs to get it going, James. They've lost

1363
00:59:52,080 --> 00:59:54,400
Speaker 1: four of their last six. One of their wins, though,

1364
00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:57,200
Speaker 1: was up in Evansville seventy sixty six.

1365
00:59:57,840 --> 00:59:58,200
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1366
00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:00,720
Speaker 4: Can you just get back on on the right side

1367
01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:02,600
Speaker 4: of things and try to get a rhythm before the

1368
01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:04,120
Speaker 4: n C level of tournament begins?

1369
01:00:04,600 --> 01:00:07,320
Speaker 1: All right? Butler last night dropping the sixteen and sixteen

1370
01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:09,600
Speaker 1: on the year, I'm sure their season is over. Big

1371
01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:12,680
Speaker 1: East loss to Providence. Stefan Box had twenty eight points

1372
01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:15,760
Speaker 1: in the win for Providence. Michael Lajai led the Bulldogs

1373
01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:19,240
Speaker 1: with twenty one points, eleven rebounds, four assists, Finley Bizjack

1374
01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:23,200
Speaker 1: threw in seventeen. But the disappointing thing here Bulldogs led

1375
01:00:23,240 --> 01:00:27,600
Speaker 1: by sixteen in the first half, Kevin, what happened?

1376
01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:32,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it changed in a hurry there. So yeah, very disappointed. Obviously,

1377
01:00:32,640 --> 01:00:34,920
Speaker 2: Big East season for them. I know some injuries have

1378
01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:38,120
Speaker 2: played into it. So definite questions in the offseason for

1379
01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:41,040
Speaker 2: Grant line Deckers Ad and Thad Mada's head coach and

1380
01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:43,920
Speaker 2: where you got resource wise is model one thousand percent

1381
01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:47,160
Speaker 2: want to be doing this? It sounds like that is true,

1382
01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:48,800
Speaker 2: but you know they're gonna lose an All Big East

1383
01:00:48,840 --> 01:00:51,200
Speaker 2: first team guy. I thought Michael Jai even last night,

1384
01:00:51,520 --> 01:00:53,560
Speaker 2: I thought he was great and he was a really

1385
01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:54,960
Speaker 2: nice fine for Butler in the portal.

1386
01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:56,320
Speaker 3: They got to go out and find another one.

1387
01:00:56,840 --> 01:00:59,200
Speaker 1: All right. So that's college basketball for you right now.

1388
01:00:59,240 --> 01:01:02,120
Speaker 1: And again of Ohio tries to keep it going later

1389
01:01:02,160 --> 01:01:03,960
Speaker 1: on tonight, right Kevin, you were just talking about that.

1390
01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:06,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, eleven am today, and I'm curious about Purdue tonight.

1391
01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:08,800
Speaker 2: You know, Northwestern again gave them a great game and

1392
01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:11,720
Speaker 2: Braden Smith really struggled in that game last week.

1393
01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:13,480
Speaker 3: They did that without Jake West.

1394
01:01:13,520 --> 01:01:16,920
Speaker 2: If you watched Indiana Northwestern last night Jake West, he

1395
01:01:17,040 --> 01:01:18,960
Speaker 2: was he looked like John Moran.

1396
01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:21,240
Speaker 3: Attacking the ram and Times against Indiana.

1397
01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:23,320
Speaker 2: They are so Purdue a little bit more size, of course,

1398
01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:25,760
Speaker 2: but yeah, they'll be six thirty time Predue wins, they

1399
01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:27,040
Speaker 2: get Nebraska.

1400
01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:29,439
Speaker 1: All right, Pacers return home after that four game West

1401
01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:31,960
Speaker 1: Coast road trip. I'll play the Phoenix Suns tonight at

1402
01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:34,800
Speaker 1: the Fieldhouse six thirty airtime here at ninety three five

1403
01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:37,520
Speaker 1: one or seven five the fans seven o'clock tip. Pacers,

1404
01:01:37,520 --> 01:01:40,960
Speaker 1: of course have lost ten games in a row. Injury

1405
01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:43,320
Speaker 1: list interesting, I mean it sounds kind of the same

1406
01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:46,640
Speaker 1: because it's questionable for Andrew Nemahart, Aaron Nesmith, TJ. McConnell,

1407
01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:50,080
Speaker 1: Pascal Siakam is doubtful, Quentin Jackson is doubtful. But men,

1408
01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:54,720
Speaker 1: it's a Zubats questionable. Do we see him?

1409
01:01:55,400 --> 01:01:57,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like I said, I talked to Tony East last

1410
01:01:57,760 --> 01:02:01,720
Speaker 4: night about this on locked on Pacer and so typically

1411
01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:04,480
Speaker 4: when this has happened, when a player gets upgraded to questionable,

1412
01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:07,560
Speaker 4: they have played for the Pacers. So perhaps we are

1413
01:02:07,640 --> 01:02:12,040
Speaker 4: about eleven hours away from the debut of Visa Zubats.

1414
01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:13,720
Speaker 2: And is a back to back for the Pacers, So

1415
01:02:13,840 --> 01:02:16,200
Speaker 2: a Phoenix, New York, I believe yes. And then the

1416
01:02:16,240 --> 01:02:19,919
Speaker 2: Bucks coming up on Sunday here, So yeah, Zubats watch.

1417
01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:21,720
Speaker 3: We've been curious about, you know, James.

1418
01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:24,840
Speaker 2: I think Rick Carlisle said at the combine whenever we

1419
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:26,880
Speaker 2: had them on, you know, probably a couple of weeks away,

1420
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:29,520
Speaker 2: and that we're at that point, yeah, you know, through

1421
01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:32,120
Speaker 2: the West coast trip now, so seventeen to go. I

1422
01:02:32,120 --> 01:02:33,880
Speaker 2: want to say something like that for the Pacers. So

1423
01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:36,320
Speaker 2: we'll see Zubots playing half of them, less than half

1424
01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:36,520
Speaker 2: of them.

1425
01:02:36,560 --> 01:02:38,000
Speaker 4: Oh, I'll go on a limb here and say he'll

1426
01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:39,480
Speaker 4: play in half of this back to back. I don't

1427
01:02:39,480 --> 01:02:41,760
Speaker 4: think they're wearing to see Zubats in two games in

1428
01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:42,040
Speaker 4: a row.

1429
01:02:42,080 --> 01:02:42,840
Speaker 3: Accurate statement.

1430
01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:46,240
Speaker 6: Max Helm is starting the players with an eagle on

1431
01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:47,400
Speaker 6: his starting pins.

1432
01:02:47,880 --> 01:02:48,400
Speaker 1: Beautiful.

1433
01:02:48,400 --> 01:02:50,480
Speaker 3: It's a highlight of that Mark. He sucked it right

1434
01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:51,640
Speaker 3: back into the hole, very.

1435
01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:53,920
Speaker 6: Nice, hundred ninety thirty nine nine yards out. It's just

1436
01:02:53,960 --> 01:02:55,640
Speaker 6: a typical Thursday that Mark.

1437
01:02:55,680 --> 01:02:57,440
Speaker 3: You're making me happy on this Thursday morning.

1438
01:02:57,440 --> 01:02:57,920
Speaker 6: Beautiful.

1439
01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:00,560
Speaker 1: Uh, you gotta make Mark happy. There's a quest about that.

1440
01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:03,800
Speaker 1: Last night, one notable NBA game, the Clippers dropped one

1441
01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:07,000
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty three points on the Minnesota Timberwolves, forty

1442
01:03:07,080 --> 01:03:11,000
Speaker 1: five for Kawhi Leonards. This scoring streak in the NBA continues,

1443
01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:13,920
Speaker 1: but in only twenty five minutes last night. Just pointing

1444
01:03:13,920 --> 01:03:17,640
Speaker 1: out that Benedick Matherin scored actually twenty five points in

1445
01:03:17,680 --> 01:03:18,520
Speaker 1: twenty two minutes.

1446
01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:20,840
Speaker 5: Did you see he got into it twenty two and.

1447
01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:22,480
Speaker 1: Twenty five, sorry, twenty two and twenty five.

1448
01:03:22,600 --> 01:03:25,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was thinking, boy, you are a pacer to

1449
01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:28,040
Speaker 4: the core. He wanted to give the ball to some

1450
01:03:28,120 --> 01:03:31,080
Speaker 4: rookie that score in his first points and ended up

1451
01:03:31,320 --> 01:03:32,080
Speaker 4: getting into it.

1452
01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:36,200
Speaker 1: I love Matherin so much. All right, there's your NBA Mark.

1453
01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:38,440
Speaker 1: We got to talk about World Baseball Classic. Mark de

1454
01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:42,520
Speaker 1: Rosa and USA. They get a reprieve because Italy's bats

1455
01:03:42,560 --> 01:03:45,960
Speaker 1: are cooking and they just hammered Mexico nine to one

1456
01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:48,320
Speaker 1: last night, so you didn't need a three team tie break.

1457
01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:50,520
Speaker 1: The top two teams in the group advance. That would

1458
01:03:50,520 --> 01:03:53,400
Speaker 1: be Italy number one and USA number two. Mark de

1459
01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:55,400
Speaker 1: Rosa admitting the other day that he didn't know. He

1460
01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:58,680
Speaker 1: already thought that USA had advanced, and so he didn't

1461
01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:00,520
Speaker 1: play all of his best players the other night and

1462
01:04:00,520 --> 01:04:02,960
Speaker 1: They're lost to Italy, but they get another chance to

1463
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:06,440
Speaker 1: against the quarterfinals against Canada tomorrow night at eight. How

1464
01:04:06,520 --> 01:04:07,800
Speaker 1: you feeling about Mark de Rosa there?

1465
01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:10,760
Speaker 6: I love Mark de Rosa, but yeah, freshen up on

1466
01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:12,440
Speaker 6: the rules a little bit. I guess, make sure you've

1467
01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:15,400
Speaker 6: got all your diyes dotted in Tea's cross.

1468
01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:17,560
Speaker 4: This was like me and college walking in and realized that,

1469
01:04:17,600 --> 01:04:19,800
Speaker 4: oh the test is today. I thought that was Thursday.

1470
01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:21,400
Speaker 4: That like next Thursday?

1471
01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:24,080
Speaker 2: Vinnie Mark? Is that who we need to think? The

1472
01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:27,440
Speaker 2: Italian Vinnie Mm hmm sure three homers last night?

1473
01:04:27,560 --> 01:04:29,200
Speaker 1: Yeah? Is that right? What you've been going?

1474
01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:31,959
Speaker 3: You got to thank usually he's a Kansas City Royal.

1475
01:04:32,040 --> 01:04:35,480
Speaker 6: I guess Squatino or whatever the thing is is he is?

1476
01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:37,560
Speaker 3: He notable like it's a prominent.

1477
01:04:37,520 --> 01:04:40,240
Speaker 1: He will be now? Yeah, he will be now.

1478
01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:42,000
Speaker 3: The Americans certainly need to thank him.

1479
01:04:42,040 --> 01:04:45,520
Speaker 1: Speaking of Team USA, the women's senior basketball team playing

1480
01:04:45,520 --> 01:04:48,360
Speaker 1: in the World Cup qualifier down in Puerto Rico, and

1481
01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:51,280
Speaker 1: right now they are one to zero after their opening

1482
01:04:51,320 --> 01:04:54,400
Speaker 1: win against Senegal one ten forty six. They've already qualified

1483
01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:56,240
Speaker 1: for the World Cup that they are participating in this

1484
01:04:56,600 --> 01:04:59,600
Speaker 1: qualifying tournament. Caitlin Clark, though, was the star of the show,

1485
01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:04,160
Speaker 1: seventeen points twelve assists, four to five from three point range.

1486
01:05:04,360 --> 01:05:05,960
Speaker 1: She said she was a little worried about getting her

1487
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:07,919
Speaker 1: win back, but she felt pretty good. Wanted to play

1488
01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:09,880
Speaker 1: at a fast pace, and boy she did.

1489
01:05:11,360 --> 01:05:14,520
Speaker 4: Kleen Clark MVP season loading if we have a season,

1490
01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:15,880
Speaker 4: assuming that they reach an agreement.

1491
01:05:15,960 --> 01:05:16,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, she came off the bench.

1492
01:05:16,920 --> 01:05:20,040
Speaker 2: We were watching it yesterday and she just threw this

1493
01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:24,000
Speaker 2: absolute fast break dime right past the Senegal defender right

1494
01:05:24,080 --> 01:05:26,920
Speaker 2: and stride to a US teammate for a layup. And

1495
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:28,800
Speaker 2: it was kind of that reminded me of like, oh, yeah,

1496
01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:32,640
Speaker 2: her greatest skill is her passing, Like she passes at

1497
01:05:32,800 --> 01:05:35,920
Speaker 2: such a I am two three steps ahead of everybody

1498
01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:38,640
Speaker 2: else on the floor. It was such a beautiful pass.

1499
01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:41,280
Speaker 2: So yeah, good to see her back. I don't think

1500
01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:43,240
Speaker 2: the competition was great, if I'm gonna be totally honest

1501
01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:46,400
Speaker 2: with you, But nonetheless, Caitlin Clark one step closer as

1502
01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:50,080
Speaker 2: we're awaiting, right, did we just pass the WNBA timeline

1503
01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:51,920
Speaker 2: for this? Are we starting to impact the season? I

1504
01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:53,000
Speaker 2: asked that in all seriousness.

1505
01:05:53,040 --> 01:05:55,160
Speaker 1: I did see a report last night that the w

1506
01:05:55,760 --> 01:05:58,880
Speaker 1: NBA players Association did say that they feel like they've

1507
01:05:58,920 --> 01:06:01,120
Speaker 1: started to make some progress in talks.

1508
01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:03,160
Speaker 3: Is their first game is what in May?

1509
01:06:03,480 --> 01:06:03,760
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1510
01:06:03,880 --> 01:06:05,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, I believe it's like May ninth.

1511
01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:07,320
Speaker 4: I want to say it's maybe a Saturday and it's

1512
01:06:07,360 --> 01:06:09,160
Speaker 4: against the Dallas Wings with Page Beckers.

1513
01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:10,720
Speaker 2: I mean, I feel like we're kind of getting close

1514
01:06:10,760 --> 01:06:13,720
Speaker 2: to that of like, oh boy, if this continues, are

1515
01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:15,200
Speaker 2: you delaying the season at all?

1516
01:06:15,240 --> 01:06:17,000
Speaker 3: Are you cutting games off? I mean that would be

1517
01:06:17,160 --> 01:06:19,680
Speaker 3: worst thing they disastrous, worst thing they could do.

1518
01:06:20,360 --> 01:06:22,840
Speaker 1: All right, And there was some any car news yesterday with.

1519
01:06:23,240 --> 01:06:25,400
Speaker 2: Driving Ryan Bold Racing. I think I misspoke earlier. I

1520
01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:27,600
Speaker 2: think I said dale Coin for Connor Daily. He's certainly

1521
01:06:27,720 --> 01:06:31,400
Speaker 2: driven for a lot of teams, has driven for dale

1522
01:06:31,400 --> 01:06:35,400
Speaker 2: Coin before, but six tenth, eight eight, I think in

1523
01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:37,320
Speaker 2: his last four Indy five hundred, I know, four times

1524
01:06:37,320 --> 01:06:39,760
Speaker 2: in the top ten. So Connor Daly has been outstanding

1525
01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:42,520
Speaker 2: in this race. Announced yesterday with trying Ryanbold that he

1526
01:06:42,600 --> 01:06:45,000
Speaker 2: will be back for the five hundred. So I think

1527
01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:48,280
Speaker 2: it's great, great news. You certainly just at ten to

1528
01:06:48,280 --> 01:06:50,760
Speaker 2: five hundred and you hear the crowd cheering for the

1529
01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:52,360
Speaker 2: local guy when he gets up there and he goes

1530
01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:54,320
Speaker 2: put himself up there, no matter what team he's been

1531
01:06:54,400 --> 01:06:57,680
Speaker 2: racing for here in recent years. So reminder, it is

1532
01:06:57,920 --> 01:07:02,040
Speaker 2: Arlington this weekend for IndyCar. That's obviously just outside of Dallas,

1533
01:07:02,160 --> 01:07:05,160
Speaker 2: that's right around Jerry's world. It'saw a huge crowd for

1534
01:07:05,960 --> 01:07:08,960
Speaker 2: Poddle Ward and nam McLaren team last night down there.

1535
01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:12,520
Speaker 2: So this busy month of March continues here for Indy

1536
01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:15,120
Speaker 2: Car and you can hear that on our airwaves coming

1537
01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:16,680
Speaker 2: up on title just a little bit.

1538
01:07:17,640 --> 01:07:18,720
Speaker 3: Is he going green? Flat?

1539
01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:19,520
Speaker 1: Is he?

1540
01:07:19,600 --> 01:07:20,760
Speaker 3: Drivers? Start your engines?

1541
01:07:21,280 --> 01:07:22,720
Speaker 1: He should drive the pace lab.

1542
01:07:24,760 --> 01:07:27,040
Speaker 2: I mean we had Jameis Winston right at the Tampa race,

1543
01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:28,880
Speaker 2: we had John Gruden. I think also the Tampa race

1544
01:07:29,360 --> 01:07:32,640
Speaker 2: only only makes sense to have Jerry Jones doing something right.

1545
01:07:33,680 --> 01:07:35,520
Speaker 5: Jerry Jones doing something yes.

1546
01:07:36,200 --> 01:07:36,600
Speaker 3: All right?

1547
01:07:36,680 --> 01:07:39,360
Speaker 1: Later on today the Colts will have a press conference

1548
01:07:39,400 --> 01:07:41,560
Speaker 1: where Daniel Jones will talk about his brand new two

1549
01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:44,280
Speaker 1: year deal with the team, and then he will join

1550
01:07:44,640 --> 01:07:46,760
Speaker 1: JMV a little bit later on in the afternoon. So

1551
01:07:46,800 --> 01:07:49,200

Speaker 2: he had at the combine of lists of there for Jones.

1557
01:08:02,160 --> 01:08:03,880
Speaker 1: All right, we'll talk more about the cults and what

1558
01:08:03,920 --> 01:08:05,800
Speaker 1: they have coming up in a moment here, and also

1559
01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:07,760
Speaker 1: a little more on IU basketball. As I mentioned a

1560
01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:10,400
Speaker 1: moment ago checking the text line in social media last night,

1561
01:08:10,880 --> 01:08:13,919
Speaker 1: the IU basketball natives are restless, and they have every

1562
01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:15,600
Speaker 1: right to be. We'll tell you all about it as

1563
01:08:15,600 --> 01:08:17,400
Speaker 1: we continue on ninety three five and one oh seven

1564
01:08:17,479 --> 01:08:17,960

1565
01:08:29,360 --> 01:08:32,040
Speaker 8: You were listening to a fan morning show on sports

1566
01:08:32,160 --> 01:08:34,760
Speaker 8: Radio ninety three to five and one oh seven five

Speaker 8: The Fan.

1568
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:43,360
Speaker 1: This feels like some JMB gonna be playing. I like Toto.

1569
01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:45,200
Speaker 1: This is good stuff, but it feels like a JMB

1570
01:08:45,400 --> 01:08:47,200
Speaker 1: kind of thing on a Saturday night, doesn't it.

1571
01:08:47,400 --> 01:08:50,040
Speaker 6: Eclectic music? Man, that's what we're doing today. I'm gonna

1572
01:08:50,080 --> 01:08:53,400
Speaker 6: make Cole got some Afi, got some Toto. We spread

1573
01:08:53,439 --> 01:08:54,120
Speaker 6: all fields here.

1574
01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:57,560
Speaker 3: I like, that's work Mark great, great jam always.

1575
01:08:58,040 --> 01:09:00,360
Speaker 1: I like, when do you figure out the playlist before

1576
01:09:00,400 --> 01:09:01,200
Speaker 1: you just kind of go with.

1577
01:09:01,160 --> 01:09:03,519
Speaker 6: It in the morning, twenty seconds before I play it,

1578
01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:05,680
Speaker 6: It's like, what do I want to play? Right now?

1579
01:09:05,720 --> 01:09:09,040
Speaker 6: What am I feeling, yeah, but you usually have a theme, well, like, yes,

1580
01:09:09,080 --> 01:09:10,800
Speaker 6: there was three eleven, so we played some three eleven.

1581
01:09:10,800 --> 01:09:11,360
Speaker 5: That's obvious.

1582
01:09:11,360 --> 01:09:13,880
Speaker 6: Saint Patrick's Day obviously will some Saint Patrick's Day music

1583
01:09:13,960 --> 01:09:16,360
Speaker 6: going and all that stuff. But sometimes it's just whatever

1584
01:09:16,560 --> 01:09:18,559
Speaker 6: I'm feeling at the moment. You want to DJ the

1585
01:09:18,560 --> 01:09:21,599
Speaker 6: golf tournament, sure, I'm sure JMV would like to fight

1586
01:09:21,680 --> 01:09:23,320
Speaker 6: me for that privilege though.

1587
01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:27,599
Speaker 1: April thirtieth, down at Legends the Fan Invitational twenty twenty

1588

01:09:34,160 --> 01:09:37,000
Speaker 1: they as we finalize them, but working on a lot

1591
01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:39,559
Speaker 1: of great things. Matt Taylor will be our official starter

1592
01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:42,280
Speaker 1: at hole one, so that's going to be fantastic to

1593
01:09:42,320 --> 01:09:45,519
Speaker 1: look forward to. Tucker Marnhart talking about getting forcesome together

1594
01:09:45,560 --> 01:09:47,360
Speaker 1: maybe coming out. We got some more folks that are

1595
01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:50,880
Speaker 1: clearing their schedules and we'll have updates on that as well.

1596
01:09:50,920 --> 01:09:52,200
Speaker 1: But you can come and hang out with all of

Speaker 1: on one of a kind experiences afterwards and take part

1599
01:09:58,280 --> 01:10:01,880
Speaker 1: and hold in one competition's longest but more importantly, take

1600
01:10:01,880 --> 01:10:04,440
Speaker 1: advantage of the free cancer screenings that will be available

1601
01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:09,160
Speaker 1: on site courtesy of the Franciscan Health Cancer Center. Over

1602
01:10:09,320 --> 01:10:11,679
Speaker 1: under a number of drives you might hit this year, Kevin,

1603
01:10:11,680 --> 01:10:12,880
Speaker 1: any idea whatsoever?

1604
01:10:13,080 --> 01:10:15,040
Speaker 3: Oh, let's set a fifty fifty?

1605
01:10:15,240 --> 01:10:15,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, why not?

1606
01:10:17,080 --> 01:10:21,800
Speaker 2: Fifty drives? Ten beers, eight Mondos.

1607
01:10:21,560 --> 01:10:22,599
Speaker 1: More beers than Mondo's.

1608
01:10:22,640 --> 01:10:24,200
Speaker 3: That sounds like a good day, right Mark.

1609
01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:25,559
Speaker 1: More beers than up.

1610
01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:27,040
Speaker 6: I'm there, James.

1611
01:10:27,120 --> 01:10:31,519
Speaker 2: Better chance the starting replacement for Zayar Franklin or Nick.

1612
01:10:31,439 --> 01:10:32,519
Speaker 1: Cross is on the roster.

1613
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:38,200
Speaker 5: Oh, good question. I'm gonna go Nick Cross.

1614
01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:41,880
Speaker 4: Maybe you believe in Hunter Wohl or enough to give

1615
01:10:41,960 --> 01:10:43,479
Speaker 4: him that opportunity.

1616
01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:44,759
Speaker 1: Which is kind of wild.

1617
01:10:45,040 --> 01:10:46,519
Speaker 2: I don't disagree with you, by the way, but you

1618
01:10:46,640 --> 01:10:48,240
Speaker 2: just named a player that's never played a snap in

1619
01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:49,719
Speaker 2: the NFL coming off an injury.

1620
01:10:50,640 --> 01:10:53,639
Speaker 4: I do realize that, But looking at that linebacker room,

1621
01:10:55,240 --> 01:10:57,320
Speaker 4: Jalen Carlis, that's your replacement.

1622
01:10:57,680 --> 01:10:59,360
Speaker 3: Well, and this is the other debate I've had with it.

1623
01:10:59,280 --> 01:11:01,439
Speaker 5: And in Jermain Pratt doesn't count because he's a free agent.

1624
01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:03,839
Speaker 2: Right to this, the other debate I've had a linebacker

1625
01:11:03,920 --> 01:11:06,960
Speaker 2: right now, James, by all accounts, Loui an Arumo is

1626
01:11:07,080 --> 01:11:10,160
Speaker 2: a much more of an exotic defensive coordinator than Gus Bradley,

1627
01:11:10,200 --> 01:11:12,760
Speaker 2: for example. I think Franklin I honestly had some really

1628
01:11:12,760 --> 01:11:15,240
Speaker 2: candid quotes to Jim Rome about that the audio we

1629
01:11:15,240 --> 01:11:19,000
Speaker 2: played earlier in the week. So when I hear you

1630
01:11:19,120 --> 01:11:22,400
Speaker 2: need a new signal caller for your defense, do you

1631
01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:25,519
Speaker 2: want that to be a rookie draft pick? If that

1632
01:11:25,560 --> 01:11:28,400
Speaker 2: guy is aligning a defense that has a lot on

1633
01:11:28,400 --> 01:11:30,400
Speaker 2: his plate, you know it'd be one thing if you're

1634
01:11:30,400 --> 01:11:33,519
Speaker 2: aligning a Gus Bradley defense, Isn't it a different animal

1635
01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:36,000
Speaker 2: if you're aligning lou and Arumo defense. That's another thought

1636
01:11:36,040 --> 01:11:38,960
Speaker 2: I have here as we sit here kind of waiting

1637
01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:42,080
Speaker 2: to see what other additions the Colts have defensively.

1638
01:11:43,160 --> 01:11:44,920
Speaker 1: Here's another question for you. A lot of people checking

1639
01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:48,280
Speaker 1: in on the text line, is there any market at

1640
01:11:48,280 --> 01:11:50,479
Speaker 1: all for Anthony Richardson at this point in time?

1641
01:11:52,240 --> 01:11:54,680
Speaker 2: I would assume with Richardson, he's got to let like

1642
01:11:54,720 --> 01:11:57,320
Speaker 2: the true, not the true, but more of the starting

1643
01:11:57,360 --> 01:12:02,000
Speaker 2: market play out. So Daniel Jones, Malik Willis Kyler Murray

1644
01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:04,559
Speaker 2: like kind of let that play out and then see

1645
01:12:04,560 --> 01:12:07,439
Speaker 2: where he slots in after that, and it.

1646
01:12:07,360 --> 01:12:09,679
Speaker 1: Looks like Kyler Murray's gonna meet with the Vikings today.

1647
01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:12,679
Speaker 1: I could see, I could see him becoming a Minnesota Viking.

1648
01:12:12,720 --> 01:12:16,439
Speaker 1: And I still think, look, Kyler Murray, as athletic as

1649
01:12:16,439 --> 01:12:19,280
Speaker 1: he is, and he throws a great ball. Obviously he's undersized,

1650
01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:24,000
Speaker 1: and there were early in his career commitment questions about

1651
01:12:24,080 --> 01:12:25,760
Speaker 1: you know, how committed to the job was he and

1652
01:12:25,800 --> 01:12:28,320
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff. But you give a guy

1653
01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:29,920
Speaker 1: with that kind of arm and that kind of athletic

1654
01:12:29,920 --> 01:12:32,280
Speaker 1: ability a chance to throw to Justin Jefferson and some

1655
01:12:32,320 --> 01:12:34,439
Speaker 1: of the other wide receivers and tight ends on that team,

1656
01:12:35,000 --> 01:12:38,559
Speaker 1: with the coach that they have there, that I could

1657
01:12:38,600 --> 01:12:40,160
Speaker 1: see some things working out for him there.

1658
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:42,559
Speaker 4: This is a chance for him to prove he still

1659
01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:45,040
Speaker 4: starting in the NFL. If it doesn't work with Justin Jefferson,

1660
01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:48,080
Speaker 4: to your point, jeff and other I think you know

1661
01:12:48,760 --> 01:12:51,800
Speaker 4: pretty good receivers, then you probably won't be a starter

1662
01:12:51,880 --> 01:12:54,640
Speaker 4: again in this league. I think Sam Darnold is like

1663
01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:56,599
Speaker 4: the outlier where he was able to go to four

1664
01:12:56,640 --> 01:12:58,639
Speaker 4: or five different teams and kind of figure it out.

1665
01:12:58,960 --> 01:13:00,000
Speaker 5: That usually does not happen.

1666
01:13:00,280 --> 01:13:02,160
Speaker 4: You get the second chance, the third and fourth chances

1667
01:13:02,200 --> 01:13:04,600
Speaker 4: usually don't come. So we'll see if they agree to

1668
01:13:04,680 --> 01:13:07,760
Speaker 4: some terms. And I will just say that, you know,

1669
01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:12,320
Speaker 4: with Kyler, I don't trust him to be like the

1670
01:13:12,479 --> 01:13:17,120
Speaker 4: franchise guy, but he is certainly an upgrade from whatever

1671
01:13:17,160 --> 01:13:20,800
Speaker 4: you have going on in Minnesota, because JJ McCarthy is

1672
01:13:20,880 --> 01:13:21,679
Speaker 4: not the answer.

1673
01:13:21,920 --> 01:13:24,719
Speaker 1: No, And they did get Aaron Jones to restructure his contracts.

1674
01:13:24,720 --> 01:13:27,719
Speaker 1: So they got Aaron Jones, who's a nice pass catching back,

1675
01:13:28,240 --> 01:13:33,720
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, TJ. Hockinson. And that's a lot

1676
01:13:33,720 --> 01:13:35,000
Speaker 1: of firepower right there, man.

1677
01:13:35,360 --> 01:13:36,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, and they got to be able to protect them too.

1678
01:13:36,840 --> 01:13:39,360
Speaker 4: Though the Vikings offensive line has some issues last year

1679
01:13:39,400 --> 01:13:41,160
Speaker 4: as well, So we'll see.

1680
01:13:41,600 --> 01:13:43,840
Speaker 1: All right, that's what's going on in the National Football League.

1681
01:13:44,200 --> 01:13:47,720
Speaker 1: Greg has a question for you, Kevin, Well really, he

1682
01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:49,680
Speaker 1: backing you up more than a question. He says, you

1683
01:13:49,720 --> 01:13:52,439
Speaker 1: are so correct about the racial of investment to return

1684
01:13:52,520 --> 01:13:55,800
Speaker 1: regarding IU basketball. It's poetic to me that the guy

1685
01:13:55,840 --> 01:13:58,320
Speaker 1: who probably could have turned it around, a Hoosier himself,

1686
01:13:58,640 --> 01:14:00,880
Speaker 1: was sitting there on a silver plaid two years ago,

1687
01:14:01,160 --> 01:14:03,920
Speaker 1: and they instead said, no, thanks, we'll have more of

1688
01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:07,240
Speaker 1: Mike Woodson now that man, Dusty may is at a

1689
01:14:07,240 --> 01:14:10,479
Speaker 1: conference rival on an absolute tear and will haunt the

1690
01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:14,919
Speaker 1: Indiana program for the foreseeable future, almost like a Greek tragedy.

1691
01:14:17,240 --> 01:14:20,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think there's a ton of truth in what

1692
01:14:20,479 --> 01:14:21,559
Speaker 2: Greg says right there.

1693
01:14:22,880 --> 01:14:24,040
Speaker 3: I guess there's just to play it out.

1694
01:14:24,120 --> 01:14:26,240
Speaker 2: Dusty May, you know, left Florida Atlantic to go to

1695
01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:28,320
Speaker 2: Michigan and Mike Woodson came back for that one year

1696
01:14:28,360 --> 01:14:29,960
Speaker 2: that I don't think really anybody.

1697
01:14:29,560 --> 01:14:31,240
Speaker 3: Thought any coach deserved.

1698
01:14:31,280 --> 01:14:33,240
Speaker 2: I think it was more of a Hey, I'm Quinn

1699
01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:34,800
Speaker 2: Buckner and I'm on the board of trustees, and I

1700
01:14:34,800 --> 01:14:36,840
Speaker 2: want a former player to still and a friend of

1701
01:14:36,880 --> 01:14:40,160
Speaker 2: mine to still get another opportunity at it. But I

1702
01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:42,519
Speaker 2: would also sit here and say the Indiana program right

1703
01:14:42,520 --> 01:14:44,080
Speaker 2: now has got a lot bigger problems than Dusty May.

1704
01:14:45,479 --> 01:14:46,599
Speaker 1: They got all kinds of problems.

1705
01:14:46,640 --> 01:14:47,960
Speaker 3: You can't get into the tournament.

1706
01:14:48,240 --> 01:14:50,560
Speaker 2: I mean, you've made it what twice in ten years,

1707
01:14:51,160 --> 01:14:54,040
Speaker 2: sixty eighteen tournament. You know, before you get to Dusty May,

1708
01:14:54,040 --> 01:14:55,960
Speaker 2: you got a whole lot of other hurdles you got

1709
01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:58,880
Speaker 2: to clear before. That is really a true Cheoe issue.

1710
01:14:58,960 --> 01:15:01,320
Speaker 3: Dusty May is he's shopping down a different isle than

1711
01:15:01,360 --> 01:15:02,640
Speaker 3: where are you shopping.

1712
01:15:03,400 --> 01:15:06,240
Speaker 1: Justin says, unless there's something behind the scenes we don't

1713
01:15:06,240 --> 01:15:09,839
Speaker 1: know about. If you're Trent Sisly, why wouldn't you transfer

1714
01:15:10,040 --> 01:15:12,679
Speaker 1: lost six of our last seven and he got zero

1715
01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:16,479
Speaker 1: chance to make an impact. I don't think he's wrong there.

1716
01:15:16,520 --> 01:15:18,439
Speaker 1: Either you're Trent Sisly, what are you looking at?

1717
01:15:18,720 --> 01:15:18,880
Speaker 9: Well?

1718
01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:20,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, stability or.

1719
01:15:20,280 --> 01:15:21,080
Speaker 3: Dean t Yeah.

1720
01:15:21,120 --> 01:15:23,519
Speaker 2: I mean people didn't people say the same thing about

1721
01:15:23,520 --> 01:15:25,559
Speaker 2: Alc Pierce. Why Why did Alan Pierce want to come back?

1722
01:15:26,560 --> 01:15:28,320
Speaker 2: And James, I mean you were there yesterday. I mean

1723
01:15:28,360 --> 01:15:31,160
Speaker 2: you listened to Alec Pearce. He didn't make it seem

1724
01:15:31,200 --> 01:15:33,760
Speaker 2: like he really entertained the thought of leaving too too much.

1725
01:15:34,320 --> 01:15:36,280
Speaker 4: No, I thought about even asking him because you know

1726
01:15:36,360 --> 01:15:38,920
Speaker 4: they have that rule this year where you can a

1727
01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:41,439
Speaker 4: team can use a zoom call to talk directly to

1728
01:15:41,479 --> 01:15:44,400
Speaker 4: the player. I mean, with the timing of when he

1729
01:15:44,439 --> 01:15:47,000
Speaker 4: agreed to come back to the Colts, it seemed like

1730
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:50,360
Speaker 4: he didn't even do that because within minutes of the

1731
01:15:50,880 --> 01:15:54,480
Speaker 4: legal tampering period opening, he was coming back to Indianapolis.

1732
01:15:54,479 --> 01:15:57,839
Speaker 4: So he was very adamant about I think the biggest

1733
01:15:58,160 --> 01:16:01,479
Speaker 4: lynchpin for Alec was just knowing Dane Jones would be

1734
01:16:01,520 --> 01:16:03,960
Speaker 4: here and he even had us laughing a little bit

1735
01:16:03,960 --> 01:16:06,360
Speaker 4: because he was talking about how he didn't know or

1736
01:16:06,360 --> 01:16:09,719
Speaker 4: didn't understand all the different tags, because when he heard

1737
01:16:09,760 --> 01:16:13,559
Speaker 4: about the transition tag, he initially thought that another team

1738
01:16:13,600 --> 01:16:14,800
Speaker 4: could just come in and take them.

1739
01:16:15,479 --> 01:16:17,360
Speaker 5: And in theory, that is true.

1740
01:16:17,400 --> 01:16:19,240
Speaker 4: But you said he had a lot of conversations with

1741
01:16:19,320 --> 01:16:22,160
Speaker 4: Chris Ballad and his agents about like, hey, just relax,

1742
01:16:22,240 --> 01:16:24,840
Speaker 4: we got this, let's plan this out, and he trusted him,

1743
01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:27,680
Speaker 4: and now he's been rewarded with the big time contract

1744
01:16:28,080 --> 01:16:31,519
Speaker 4: alongside the quarterback that he wanted, but also a lot

1745
01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:33,839
Speaker 4: more responsibility within this offense.

1746
01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:35,479
Speaker 5: And I'm very curious to see how alec.

1747
01:16:35,720 --> 01:16:38,160
Speaker 4: I don't doubt that he'll work hard and he'll embrace

1748
01:16:38,240 --> 01:16:41,320
Speaker 4: the role, but how does that exactly look? I mean,

1749
01:16:41,360 --> 01:16:43,559
Speaker 4: when you're when you when you know. I get that

1750
01:16:43,560 --> 01:16:46,439
Speaker 4: Michael Piman Junior had a down year last year, but

1751
01:16:46,560 --> 01:16:49,360
Speaker 4: when the guy leaves and you're the guy, it comes

1752
01:16:49,360 --> 01:16:49,760
Speaker 4: with a lot.

1753
01:16:50,840 --> 01:16:53,840
Speaker 1: Here's a here's an interesting question, kind of off topic

1754
01:16:53,920 --> 01:16:57,800
Speaker 1: from Jared that jaded Kevin, please explain this to me,

1755
01:16:57,880 --> 01:17:00,960
Speaker 1: if possible, March Madness, We're going to bring in Zach

1756
01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:03,599
Speaker 1: Brown twenty one pilots Megan Maroni and put them all

1757
01:17:03,600 --> 01:17:06,200
Speaker 1: in them all. IMS is hosting the largest party in

1758
01:17:06,200 --> 01:17:07,640
Speaker 1: the world every year, and the best we can do

1759
01:17:07,680 --> 01:17:12,240
Speaker 1: is fog At and the Stick's tribute band. Is that fair? Well?

1760
01:17:12,320 --> 01:17:14,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, that sounds like a JMV question more than main.

1761
01:17:14,760 --> 01:17:16,960
Speaker 3: What do we got Zach bryantt I like Zach Brown.

1762
01:17:17,360 --> 01:17:18,599
Speaker 3: What's the issue?

1763
01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:22,759
Speaker 1: Just how March Madness gets these huge acts and IMS

1764
01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:27,040
Speaker 1: is getting sticks tribute bands? Yeah?

1765
01:17:27,080 --> 01:17:28,760
Speaker 3: I have they announced a Carb Day band.

1766
01:17:28,800 --> 01:17:32,040
Speaker 1: I haven't seen one yet. I've heard rumors, but I

1767
01:17:32,040 --> 01:17:35,240
Speaker 1: don't know facts. So we'll see Mark. Have you heard

1768
01:17:35,240 --> 01:17:37,680
Speaker 1: anything about what might be uh brewing up there at

1769
01:17:37,680 --> 01:17:38,519
Speaker 1: Indy five hundred?

1770
01:17:38,600 --> 01:17:40,839
Speaker 6: No, No, they don't ask me for my musical.

1771
01:17:41,120 --> 01:17:45,439
Speaker 1: They should based on what we've been talking about for

1772
01:17:45,479 --> 01:17:47,599
Speaker 1: what they're Yeah, that should be your high side, hust

1773
01:17:47,600 --> 01:17:49,200
Speaker 1: You should be the musical expert out there.

1774
01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:51,720
Speaker 6: I hate feel free give me a call. I will

1775
01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:53,880
Speaker 6: take any and all donations to do that.

1776
01:17:54,320 --> 01:17:56,519
Speaker 1: All right, coming up in a moment, we will talk more

1777
01:17:56,680 --> 01:17:59,600
Speaker 1: about what's ahead for Purdue basketball tonight and also the

1778
01:17:59,640 --> 01:18:03,200
Speaker 1: Indiana Pacers. Will we see their brand new big men

1779
01:18:03,200 --> 01:18:05,000
Speaker 1: anytime soon? That comes your way in a moment A

1780
01:18:05,080 --> 01:18:06,599
Speaker 1: ninety three five and one oh seven five.

1781
01:18:06,520 --> 01:18:14,000
Speaker 8: The fans say, if you're listening to a fan morning

1782
01:18:14,040 --> 01:18:15,960
Speaker 8: show and on sports radio.

1783
01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:20,080
Speaker 7: S.

1784
01:18:21,920 --> 01:18:24,599
Speaker 1: Kevin Bowen, James Boyd, Jeffrickard, Mark Dyton, this morning, it's

1785
01:18:24,640 --> 01:18:27,200
Speaker 1: the Fan Morning Show on a Thursday morning. Sun's out today,

1786
01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:29,160
Speaker 1: a little different than the last couple of days. Maybe

1787
01:18:29,160 --> 01:18:30,960
Speaker 1: we've got a good one going on here today. We'll

1788
01:18:31,240 --> 01:18:33,479
Speaker 1: update you on that coming up in a moment here.

1789
01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:38,639
Speaker 1: Everybody's got a different situation. Context is everything, But I'm

1790
01:18:38,720 --> 01:18:40,880
Speaker 1: just curious. I was looking around the league yesterday, James,

1791
01:18:40,920 --> 01:18:44,680
Speaker 1: anybody have a better week of free agency? And I

1792
01:18:44,680 --> 01:18:46,800
Speaker 1: don't know if it translates into success or not, but

1793
01:18:47,320 --> 01:18:50,400
Speaker 1: sure seems like the commanders are loading up in the NFC.

1794
01:18:50,479 --> 01:18:54,240
Speaker 1: East Man, We've got Jayden Daniels, They've got some receivers.

1795
01:18:54,240 --> 01:18:58,000
Speaker 1: They picked up another receiver. They they picked up Titans

1796
01:18:58,000 --> 01:19:01,559
Speaker 1: tight end Chickacock wo they picked up Nick Cross from

1797
01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:05,679
Speaker 1: the Colts, pass rusher Klavon Chaisson and former Kansas City

1798
01:19:05,720 --> 01:19:09,280
Speaker 1: Chiefs defensive end Charles amene Who. And it looks like

1799
01:19:09,320 --> 01:19:11,479
Speaker 1: maybe they might go after Brandon Ayuk, who played for

1800
01:19:11,479 --> 01:19:14,800
Speaker 1: a year at a isona State with Jadon Daniels. I

1801
01:19:14,800 --> 01:19:17,160
Speaker 1: think they're loading up to be competitive out there.

1802
01:19:17,200 --> 01:19:18,439
Speaker 5: Man who they had a receiver?

1803
01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:21,880
Speaker 1: Brandon Ayuku is who they're looking at. That's the rumor

1804
01:19:21,880 --> 01:19:23,479
Speaker 1: that he's going to join them.

1805
01:19:23,520 --> 01:19:25,679
Speaker 4: Well, I wouldn't touch him with a ten foot pole.

1806
01:19:26,400 --> 01:19:30,320
Speaker 4: I think that there's a lot going on with him mentally.

1807
01:19:30,439 --> 01:19:33,200
Speaker 4: Quite frankly, He's he had one of the more bizarre

1808
01:19:33,280 --> 01:19:37,080
Speaker 4: like endings to a tenure with the team. So yeah,

1809
01:19:37,200 --> 01:19:39,920
Speaker 4: I know that sounds good in theory, but he hasn't

1810
01:19:39,920 --> 01:19:42,559
Speaker 4: played football, I believe, in what over a year, and

1811
01:19:42,680 --> 01:19:45,360
Speaker 4: he just ghosted his previous team and lost millions of

1812
01:19:45,400 --> 01:19:48,559
Speaker 4: dollars doing that, So I think something's going on with him.

1813
01:19:48,800 --> 01:19:51,400
Speaker 1: I still got our guy too, McLaren out there.

1814
01:19:51,680 --> 01:19:53,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, But I mean teams have spent a lot of

1815
01:19:53,800 --> 01:19:56,599
Speaker 4: money in free agency typically are the ones that are

1816
01:19:56,640 --> 01:19:59,200
Speaker 4: not that good, quite frankly, So we'll see if those

1817
01:20:00,280 --> 01:20:01,679
Speaker 4: bags money bags payoff.

1818
01:20:01,760 --> 01:20:03,599
Speaker 6: I would say it's the Ravens. You thought you had

1819
01:20:03,640 --> 01:20:05,920
Speaker 6: Max Crosby and then he said, oh, actually we're gonna

1820
01:20:05,960 --> 01:20:07,400
Speaker 6: change our mind, and now we've got our two first

1821
01:20:07,439 --> 01:20:08,960
Speaker 6: round picks and we got Trey Hendrickson.

1822
01:20:09,800 --> 01:20:12,920
Speaker 1: I wonder though, Kevin did the Colts kinda I've been

1823
01:20:12,920 --> 01:20:15,280
Speaker 1: thinking about this a lot. They might have dodged a

1824
01:20:15,280 --> 01:20:18,400
Speaker 1: bullet with a guy who's over thirty now coming off

1825
01:20:18,439 --> 01:20:20,160
Speaker 1: a hip surgery at the kind of money that he

1826
01:20:20,280 --> 01:20:24,200
Speaker 1: was making for the length of contract too. Time will tell,

1827
01:20:24,880 --> 01:20:26,880
Speaker 1: but maybe that wasn't the worst thing to happen.

1828
01:20:27,120 --> 01:20:27,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't.

1829
01:20:27,800 --> 01:20:30,240
Speaker 2: I would need to double back on the Hendrickson contract.

1830
01:20:30,280 --> 01:20:32,200
Speaker 2: I want to say it was like sixty guaranteed over

1831
01:20:32,240 --> 01:20:34,640
Speaker 2: two years. I know everybody sees the four years and

1832
01:20:34,640 --> 01:20:36,760
Speaker 2: they kind of run to that aspect to it. You know,

1833
01:20:36,800 --> 01:20:38,479
Speaker 2: it's a debate we got into in the nine o'clock

1834
01:20:38,479 --> 01:20:41,240
Speaker 2: hour yesterday because the Trey Hendrickson news just.

1835
01:20:41,200 --> 01:20:42,800
Speaker 3: Broke during that hour.

1836
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:47,679
Speaker 2: My thought is, I'm not in this overwhelming blame Chris

1837
01:20:47,800 --> 01:20:51,360
Speaker 2: Ballard for not pursuing Trey Hendrickson to the nth degree.

1838
01:20:51,400 --> 01:20:53,040
Speaker 3: There are reasons why you'd have pause.

1839
01:20:53,920 --> 01:20:58,240
Speaker 2: My thing is, it's been your biggest issue since really

1840
01:20:58,360 --> 01:21:01,920
Speaker 2: day one of his regime, and you still haven't solved it.

1841
01:21:02,720 --> 01:21:05,600
Speaker 2: And again, it's rooted in the draft, the swings and

1842
01:21:05,680 --> 01:21:10,000
Speaker 2: misses with all the first, second, third round picks in

1843
01:21:10,040 --> 01:21:12,280
Speaker 2: the draft, and then when opportunities have arisen to try

1844
01:21:12,320 --> 01:21:15,760
Speaker 2: and make up Fordham free agency, you haven't found enough hits.

1845
01:21:15,760 --> 01:21:17,799
Speaker 2: Now that's where the risk of freegency comes into play.

1846
01:21:18,280 --> 01:21:22,439
Speaker 2: But I sit here and say, okay, Jeff, you didn't

1847
01:21:22,479 --> 01:21:24,400
Speaker 2: want Trey Hendrickson, who do you want?

1848
01:21:24,560 --> 01:21:26,640
Speaker 1: I could have gone I'd have been okay if they

1849
01:21:26,680 --> 01:21:31,040
Speaker 1: signed Trey Henderson. But I'm just wondering long term, maybe

1850
01:21:31,040 --> 01:21:32,280
Speaker 1: they escape.

1851
01:21:32,920 --> 01:21:33,760
Speaker 3: I guess this is my question.

1852
01:21:34,720 --> 01:21:35,800
Speaker 1: There is no pivots.

1853
01:21:37,200 --> 01:21:39,439
Speaker 3: That's the issue. Like, okay, now where are you pivoting?

1854
01:21:39,800 --> 01:21:41,880
Speaker 2: You know, at this point yesterday there was a name,

1855
01:21:41,960 --> 01:21:43,840
Speaker 2: you know, Bradley Chubb was still out there.

1856
01:21:43,880 --> 01:21:45,519
Speaker 3: Well, now Bradley Chubb's with the Bills.

1857
01:21:45,560 --> 01:21:48,400
Speaker 2: Like, if you look at free agency so far, ardent Key,

1858
01:21:48,880 --> 01:21:52,280
Speaker 2: Michael Clemens, Derek Noddy have some these defensive.

1859
01:21:51,840 --> 01:21:52,719
Speaker 1: Linemen they've added.

1860
01:21:53,000 --> 01:21:56,400
Speaker 2: To me, all it is is replenishing depth, which was

1861
01:21:56,560 --> 01:21:58,040
Speaker 2: a part of the off season plan.

1862
01:21:58,640 --> 01:21:59,920
Speaker 3: But none of it is.

1863
01:21:59,840 --> 01:22:02,960
Speaker 2: The top of the depth chart. None of it is

1864
01:22:03,040 --> 01:22:06,920
Speaker 2: even the departing quity pay as a starter. And That's

1865
01:22:06,960 --> 01:22:08,439
Speaker 2: where I've got questions.

1866
01:22:08,600 --> 01:22:12,240
Speaker 3: I was more of a Monday ed rushing guy, you know.

1867
01:22:12,280 --> 01:22:13,880
Speaker 2: I thought there was a little bit more youth in

1868
01:22:13,880 --> 01:22:16,920
Speaker 2: that group. That ended up signing elsewhere on Mondays. You know,

1869
01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:18,760
Speaker 2: whether you want to look at a Daffa Oway or

1870
01:22:19,520 --> 01:22:22,479
Speaker 2: you know, Jalen Phillips or Boy Mathey. They were pricing,

1871
01:22:22,600 --> 01:22:24,360
Speaker 2: but again, you were willing to spend what twenty five

1872
01:22:24,400 --> 01:22:28,479
Speaker 2: million reportedly on Trey Hendrickson. So my question now becomes,

1873
01:22:28,520 --> 01:22:29,599
Speaker 2: where's that cap space going.

1874
01:22:30,320 --> 01:22:34,360
Speaker 6: Who's gonna have more sacks next season? Trey Hendrickson or

1875
01:22:34,400 --> 01:22:35,719
Speaker 6: the Colts ed Rusher's total.

1876
01:22:38,560 --> 01:22:41,840
Speaker 5: I'll take the team over the one player, but how.

1877
01:22:41,800 --> 01:22:43,080
Speaker 3: About Trey Henderson or a lot too.

1878
01:22:43,200 --> 01:22:44,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a good question.

1879
01:22:44,360 --> 01:22:47,120
Speaker 2: I think that's a fair thing. Well, Hendrickson, you probably

1880
01:22:47,120 --> 01:22:50,160
Speaker 2: have more of an availability question with him, you know,

1881
01:22:50,200 --> 01:22:52,160
Speaker 2: because if you just look at his numbers last year,

1882
01:22:52,320 --> 01:22:54,360
Speaker 2: he was due for a double digit sax season had

1883
01:22:54,360 --> 01:22:54,960
Speaker 2: he been healthy.

1884
01:22:55,520 --> 01:22:57,280
Speaker 3: Of course he wasn't healthy.

1885
01:22:57,600 --> 01:23:01,280
Speaker 2: Now, little conspiracy theoryal say, well, was he looking at

1886
01:23:01,280 --> 01:23:02,280
Speaker 2: his future finances?

1887
01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:03,640
Speaker 3: And you know, could he have played through that a

1888
01:23:03,680 --> 01:23:04,280
Speaker 3: little bit there?

1889
01:23:04,320 --> 01:23:06,880
Speaker 2: But because James, that's why I'm sitting here on this

1890
01:23:06,920 --> 01:23:09,599
Speaker 2: Thursday morning, I struggled to look at the past Rush

1891
01:23:09,640 --> 01:23:12,760
Speaker 2: group available in free agency and see a name that

1892
01:23:12,800 --> 01:23:16,320
Speaker 2: you would want, like as your number one guy, and

1893
01:23:16,720 --> 01:23:21,200
Speaker 2: right now it is Latu Latsu. Our edge rushing eggs

1894
01:23:21,200 --> 01:23:24,439
Speaker 2: are squarely in your basket, squarely because it's not like J. C.

1895
01:23:24,560 --> 01:23:28,160
Speaker 2: Tuumlao showed you anything of real hope in his first season.

1896
01:23:30,920 --> 01:23:33,599
Speaker 1: I don't know want is he twenty five? Probably?

1897
01:23:33,760 --> 01:23:35,160
Speaker 5: I think he's a little older because he'd like to

1898
01:23:35,160 --> 01:23:35,559
Speaker 5: be off.

1899
01:23:36,080 --> 01:23:38,320
Speaker 2: I think he was an older draft pick. But yeah, yeah,

1900
01:23:38,360 --> 01:23:39,360
Speaker 2: I would guess twenty five.

1901
01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:42,400
Speaker 1: That's the thing that worries me. At some point in

1902
01:23:42,439 --> 01:23:44,519
Speaker 1: your career, in any NFL career, you kind of become who

1903
01:23:44,520 --> 01:23:47,360
Speaker 1: you are, but usually it's right around twenty five.

1904
01:23:48,400 --> 01:23:50,920
Speaker 3: Well, Hendrickson is an example. Yeah, I don't know. I'm

1905
01:23:50,920 --> 01:23:52,479
Speaker 3: not in the camp of Latsu is too old.

1906
01:23:52,600 --> 01:23:54,960
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that, but I'm just saying, have we

1907
01:23:55,080 --> 01:23:56,640
Speaker 1: seen you know, past.

1908
01:23:56,400 --> 01:23:57,560
Speaker 3: Rushers in the times?

1909
01:23:57,600 --> 01:24:01,040
Speaker 2: It can take a little bit of Timeson as an example,

1910
01:24:01,120 --> 01:24:03,160
Speaker 2: I mean, if you look at his career, he really

1911
01:24:03,320 --> 01:24:05,120
Speaker 2: didn't do a whole lot with the Saints until his

1912
01:24:05,200 --> 01:24:08,320
Speaker 2: final season and then went to Cincinnati and took off.

1913
01:24:08,880 --> 01:24:12,759
Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm not you know, it's year three for Latsu,

1914
01:24:12,880 --> 01:24:14,719
Speaker 2: and you know, I thought he had a much better

1915
01:24:15,400 --> 01:24:18,240
Speaker 2: second season, but you now need another client from it,

1916
01:24:18,600 --> 01:24:21,200
Speaker 2: and this gets into the Okay, is DeForest Buckner walking

1917
01:24:21,280 --> 01:24:23,040
Speaker 2: up the eighteenth holl a little bit more.

1918
01:24:24,320 --> 01:24:25,959
Speaker 3: Next surgery his age.

1919
01:24:26,160 --> 01:24:27,360
Speaker 2: You know, if you're a team right now and you

1920
01:24:27,400 --> 01:24:29,360
Speaker 2: look at the Colts D line, you say, hey, we

1921
01:24:29,400 --> 01:24:31,519
Speaker 2: don't need a double team Buckner as much as we

1922
01:24:31,640 --> 01:24:34,280
Speaker 2: used to. We can now go double LOTSU Man. That

1923
01:24:34,320 --> 01:24:37,639
Speaker 2: could change a lot, and that's where I have questions. Yeah,

1924
01:24:37,880 --> 01:24:40,280
Speaker 2: so that, that to me is the biggest unknown as

1925
01:24:40,320 --> 01:24:45,000
Speaker 2: we sit here now whatever, seventy two hours into free agency.

1926
01:24:45,360 --> 01:24:47,479
Speaker 1: All right, that's what's happening in the world of football

1927
01:24:47,479 --> 01:24:48,840
Speaker 1: and the Colts. We'll get more into that a little

1928
01:24:48,840 --> 01:24:50,559
Speaker 1: bit later on. We'll take some of your comments as well.

1929
01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:53,479
Speaker 1: Two three, nine, ten seventy and we'll do that as

1930
01:24:53,479 --> 01:24:56,320
Speaker 1: the day moves along. Mark, We've got Bruce Webber coming

1931
01:24:56,400 --> 01:24:58,760
Speaker 1: up at nine point fifteen, right, you got it, all right,

1932
01:24:58,800 --> 01:25:01,240
Speaker 1: So we'll check things down a little early. Get to

1933
01:25:01,280 --> 01:25:04,920
Speaker 1: Bruce Weber talk some Big ten basketball and some NCAA

1934
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:07,160
Speaker 1: tournament and Bubble Watch and all that stuff. As we

1935
01:25:07,200 --> 01:25:09,240
Speaker 1: move along on ninety three five and one seven five

1936
01:25:09,320 --> 01:25:09,719
Speaker 1: The Fan.

1937
01:25:17,280 --> 01:25:18,040
Speaker 9: So Light.

1938
01:25:21,320 --> 01:25:24,040
Speaker 8: You are listening to the Fan Morning Show on Sports

1939
01:25:24,120 --> 01:25:26,400
Speaker 8: Radio ninety three five and one O seven.

1940
01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:27,360
Speaker 5: The fan.

1941
01:25:29,800 --> 01:25:36,000
Speaker 1: Quick sidebar aka Riley on his Twitter feed just posted

1942
01:25:36,040 --> 01:25:40,320
Speaker 1: a post with Tyree's Halliburton Osar Thompson talking about his

1943
01:25:40,400 --> 01:25:43,559
Speaker 1: welcome to the NBA moment being the Halle ankle breaker

1944
01:25:44,040 --> 01:25:48,320
Speaker 1: where Halliburton, on one of those horrible NBA cup floors,

1945
01:25:48,640 --> 01:25:52,040
Speaker 1: goes between his legs, does a crossover, Thompson falls down

1946
01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:53,479
Speaker 1: and Halle buries the three.

1947
01:25:53,640 --> 01:25:56,360
Speaker 4: I miss that man on the court, James, I miss him.

1948
01:25:57,040 --> 01:26:01,840
Speaker 4: Get him back, Yeah, shout out to Halliburton. I know

1949
01:26:01,920 --> 01:26:03,760
Speaker 4: he's I think he was on a stream I want

1950
01:26:03,760 --> 01:26:05,200
Speaker 4: to say a couple of days ago. Looks like he's

1951
01:26:05,240 --> 01:26:07,000
Speaker 4: doing better from the shingles and all of that, so

1952
01:26:07,600 --> 01:26:09,280
Speaker 4: I'm glad he's on the road to recovery.

1953
01:26:09,320 --> 01:26:11,760
Speaker 1: There, all right, Colts back at home later on tonight,

1954
01:26:11,800 --> 01:26:15,240
Speaker 1: we're looking forward to that and uh, Pacers, I'm sorry,

1955
01:26:15,280 --> 01:26:15,880
Speaker 1: Pacers back.

1956
01:26:17,600 --> 01:26:20,200
Speaker 2: We'll see he is listened as questionable for the first

1957
01:26:20,240 --> 01:26:24,280
Speaker 2: time in quite a while, so we could see the

1958
01:26:24,400 --> 01:26:25,840
Speaker 2: Pacers debut.

1959
01:26:25,800 --> 01:26:29,400
Speaker 3: From mister Zubos. You're back to back tonight and tomorrow.

1960
01:26:29,439 --> 01:26:32,000
Speaker 5: Phoenale in all forty eight minutes in both games.

1961
01:26:32,240 --> 01:26:34,360
Speaker 1: And as far as culture concerned. Daniel Jones meeting with

1962
01:26:34,400 --> 01:26:36,920
Speaker 1: the media at noon today. JMB will speak to him

1963
01:26:36,960 --> 01:26:40,680
Speaker 1: at some time during the ride with JMB this afternoon.

1964
01:26:40,720 --> 01:26:44,960
Speaker 1: And yeah, i'd like your your question a little while ago, James.

1965
01:26:45,439 --> 01:26:47,599
Speaker 1: How long will the interview last? How many questions will

1966
01:26:47,640 --> 01:26:49,800
Speaker 1: JMB have to ask to make it go six and

1967
01:26:49,840 --> 01:26:50,400
Speaker 1: a half minute?

1968
01:26:50,479 --> 01:26:52,600
Speaker 5: Yeah? To be clear, I do like Daniel I do.

1969
01:26:52,960 --> 01:26:55,840
Speaker 4: I think that he's someone who is just reserved and

1970
01:26:57,080 --> 01:26:58,760
Speaker 4: to be fair to him, the only time I've really

1971
01:26:58,800 --> 01:27:02,120
Speaker 4: saw him show emotion is when he got hurt. That

1972
01:27:02,360 --> 01:27:04,200
Speaker 4: was only like the real I was like, Okay, there

1973
01:27:04,240 --> 01:27:06,639
Speaker 4: is a human in there. And I don't say that lightly.

1974
01:27:06,680 --> 01:27:08,600
Speaker 4: I'd say that as someone who the guys kind of

1975
01:27:08,600 --> 01:27:11,360
Speaker 4: respect that he's even all the time. And I think

1976
01:27:11,360 --> 01:27:14,120
Speaker 4: that's helped him throughout his career just overall, because he's

1977
01:27:14,120 --> 01:27:16,000
Speaker 4: been through a lot and I think he's gained a

1978
01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:19,000
Speaker 4: lot of perspective. But there's some depth there. And I

1979
01:27:19,080 --> 01:27:21,839
Speaker 4: do want to say when I talk to different players

1980
01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:25,320
Speaker 4: about him, they all have like their little like you know,

1981
01:27:25,439 --> 01:27:27,639
Speaker 4: stories of him, you know, being late to dinner because

1982
01:27:27,640 --> 01:27:30,800
Speaker 4: he's looking at film or there was one from Jalen

1983
01:27:30,920 --> 01:27:32,679
Speaker 4: Jones last year. He was like, yeah, when he first

1984
01:27:32,720 --> 01:27:34,720
Speaker 4: got he would want to play basketball, Butler he could

1985
01:27:34,720 --> 01:27:35,680
Speaker 4: actually hope a little bit.

1986
01:27:35,840 --> 01:27:37,360
Speaker 5: So he is one of the guys.

1987
01:27:37,439 --> 01:27:40,320
Speaker 4: I think that's why he's kind of adeered himself to

1988
01:27:40,360 --> 01:27:42,640
Speaker 4: this franchise and to this team. So I know the

1989
01:27:42,680 --> 01:27:44,320
Speaker 4: fans might be like, man, we don't really want this

1990
01:27:44,400 --> 01:27:45,639
Speaker 4: guy because he's injury prone.

1991
01:27:45,760 --> 01:27:46,920
Speaker 5: This and that. That's fair.

1992
01:27:47,439 --> 01:27:49,680
Speaker 4: But now that he is the guy, I do want

1993
01:27:49,680 --> 01:27:51,800
Speaker 4: to make it very clear that they believe in him.

1994
01:27:51,920 --> 01:27:54,320
Speaker 4: And I think that's something that you can just you know,

1995
01:27:54,400 --> 01:27:56,080
Speaker 4: manufacture they trust him.

1996
01:27:56,120 --> 01:27:56,640
Speaker 5: They really do.

1997
01:27:56,800 --> 01:27:58,880
Speaker 2: James have got a few questions in the text line,

1998
01:27:59,240 --> 01:28:01,320
Speaker 2: maybe more kind of to get to know category of

1999
01:28:01,400 --> 01:28:05,120
Speaker 2: some of these new Colts defensive linemen. So Quity pay

2000
01:28:05,320 --> 01:28:07,920
Speaker 2: signs of the Raiders, Samson Ebcom is a free agent,

2001
01:28:08,000 --> 01:28:10,240
Speaker 2: Taekwon Lewis is a free agent. So coming in to

2002
01:28:10,280 --> 01:28:13,400
Speaker 2: do this offseason, there was a thought the Colts would

2003
01:28:13,400 --> 01:28:18,960
Speaker 2: have three new defensive linemen. In particular, how I kind

2004
01:28:18,960 --> 01:28:22,080
Speaker 2: of view the addition so far, I would say arden

2005
01:28:22,160 --> 01:28:24,920
Speaker 2: Key comes over from the Titans, has got some decent

2006
01:28:25,000 --> 01:28:27,240
Speaker 2: sack history. I kind of view him and more of

2007
01:28:27,240 --> 01:28:30,880
Speaker 2: the Sampson Ebicom like a rotational rusher could help you

2008
01:28:30,920 --> 01:28:33,040
Speaker 2: out more of an off the edge guy.

2009
01:28:33,360 --> 01:28:33,559
Speaker 1: Yeah.

2010
01:28:33,920 --> 01:28:37,080
Speaker 2: And then Michael Clemens, who they signed yesterday from the Jets,

2011
01:28:37,400 --> 01:28:39,599
Speaker 2: probably to me, is a little bit more Taekwon Lewisy.

2012
01:28:40,040 --> 01:28:40,240
Speaker 5: Yeah.

2013
01:28:41,280 --> 01:28:43,960
Speaker 2: Not not great sack production, not.

2014
01:28:43,960 --> 01:28:48,519
Speaker 5: As much as Key eight and a half in four years, right, So.

2015
01:28:48,560 --> 01:28:50,120
Speaker 2: I would say more of just kind of like a

2016
01:28:50,240 --> 01:28:53,679
Speaker 2: versatile interior guy. So I look at these two editions

2017
01:28:53,680 --> 01:28:59,520
Speaker 2: so far as depth, rotational Key more of the outside,

2018
01:28:59,600 --> 01:29:03,240
Speaker 2: Clemens a little bit more of the inside. And now

2019
01:29:03,320 --> 01:29:08,040
Speaker 2: the question becomes if when and where do you find

2020
01:29:08,080 --> 01:29:09,120
Speaker 2: more of the pay.

2021
01:29:08,920 --> 01:29:12,320
Speaker 3: Replacement because I don't, I don't to me JT.

2022
01:29:12,439 --> 01:29:16,879
Speaker 2: Twumala progressing to an automatic starter wouldn't be very unfair.

2023
01:29:17,040 --> 01:29:20,439
Speaker 2: So anything that stands out to you on the get

2024
01:29:20,479 --> 01:29:22,920
Speaker 2: to know aspect of the new defensive ends as we

2025
01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:24,200
Speaker 2: try to.

2026
01:29:23,800 --> 01:29:26,599
Speaker 3: Learn more about them and educate the audience a little well.

2027
01:29:26,680 --> 01:29:30,760
Speaker 4: I will say, when I researched Michael Clemens a little bit,

2028
01:29:31,200 --> 01:29:33,519
Speaker 4: the stuff that I read wasn't all that great. I mean,

2029
01:29:34,080 --> 01:29:36,240
Speaker 4: it sounds like he can be undisciplined as a player,

2030
01:29:36,600 --> 01:29:38,559
Speaker 4: and that was one of the biggest sticking points with

2031
01:29:38,760 --> 01:29:39,320
Speaker 4: the Jets.

2032
01:29:39,520 --> 01:29:42,080
Speaker 3: He's got the viral Twitter video right, yeah.

2033
01:29:41,880 --> 01:29:46,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, arguing with fans and things like that. So I'm

2034
01:29:46,280 --> 01:29:48,439
Speaker 4: always a little curious when fan base is kind of

2035
01:29:48,439 --> 01:29:51,800
Speaker 4: rejoiced when a player leaves and there's just like no

2036
01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:58,000
Speaker 4: love left. So I'm very curious see how that personality

2037
01:29:58,400 --> 01:30:00,639
Speaker 4: and some of the stuff that perhaps has held him

2038
01:30:00,680 --> 01:30:02,479
Speaker 4: back will be.

2039
01:30:02,600 --> 01:30:06,640
Speaker 5: Corrected here or different here. And then on top of that,

2040
01:30:06,760 --> 01:30:07,080
Speaker 5: when I.

2041
01:30:07,040 --> 01:30:10,479
Speaker 4: Look at the free agent class of defensive ends and

2042
01:30:10,520 --> 01:30:14,680
Speaker 4: who's left, it isn't great. And I think that's that

2043
01:30:14,760 --> 01:30:16,960
Speaker 4: part of it is always a little like, Okay, well

2044
01:30:17,280 --> 01:30:21,559
Speaker 4: you talk about getting a pay replacement as little as

2045
01:30:21,600 --> 01:30:23,879
Speaker 4: he I think he gave you from a pass rush standpoint,

2046
01:30:23,920 --> 01:30:25,360
Speaker 4: he was a very good run defender. To give quid

2047
01:30:25,400 --> 01:30:28,080
Speaker 4: he pay some credit there, how do you pivot? Like

2048
01:30:28,120 --> 01:30:30,639
Speaker 4: where is your other starter in free agency? And That's

2049
01:30:30,640 --> 01:30:33,080
Speaker 4: where I'm like, I don't know, Like all the other

2050
01:30:33,080 --> 01:30:35,000
Speaker 4: guys that are left are a little bit older, a

2051
01:30:35,040 --> 01:30:36,880
Speaker 4: little board dinged up, Like I don't know if like

2052
01:30:37,439 --> 01:30:40,599
Speaker 4: Joey Bosa is gonna correct that problem. But is that

2053
01:30:40,720 --> 01:30:43,920
Speaker 4: now one of your serious options? Because what else are

2054
01:30:43,920 --> 01:30:44,360
Speaker 4: you going to do?

2055
01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:47,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're talking about BOSA guys like Asan Reddick, maybe

2056
01:30:47,760 --> 01:30:53,240
Speaker 1: Leonard Floyd h That's pretty much where you're at, unless

2057
01:30:53,240 --> 01:30:54,639
Speaker 1: you want to go back to Denico Autry.

2058
01:30:55,880 --> 01:30:58,479
Speaker 2: Very good player, but again he's not really a speed

2059
01:30:58,680 --> 01:31:02,200
Speaker 2: edge guy, which now that skill set was the focus,

2060
01:31:02,280 --> 01:31:05,600
Speaker 2: so we'll continue to be the biggest question I have,

2061
01:31:05,720 --> 01:31:09,200
Speaker 2: I would say internally with Nick Cross now joining the Commanders,

2062
01:31:09,600 --> 01:31:11,120
Speaker 2: and that one I think kind of made some sense.

2063
01:31:11,120 --> 01:31:12,200
Speaker 3: First off, Nick Cross.

2064
01:31:11,960 --> 01:31:14,320
Speaker 2: Is from the DC area, went to Damatha, went to

2065
01:31:14,360 --> 01:31:17,519
Speaker 2: Maryland for college. Yeah, I think I mentioned this when

2066
01:31:17,520 --> 01:31:21,519
Speaker 2: we've discussed Cross before. It's very difficult in today's NFL

2067
01:31:21,680 --> 01:31:26,639
Speaker 2: to see teams invest in two safeties, and Nick Cross

2068
01:31:26,640 --> 01:31:28,080
Speaker 2: didn't sign a huge deal. I think it was like

2069
01:31:28,120 --> 01:31:31,760
Speaker 2: seven million annually, but you know, even that is a

2070
01:31:31,760 --> 01:31:33,200
Speaker 2: lot of money for a safety. And of course the

2071
01:31:33,200 --> 01:31:35,560
Speaker 2: Coults paid Camp, buying them big time last year. So

2072
01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:38,280
Speaker 2: I always kind of figured Across would would walk. I

2073
01:31:38,800 --> 01:31:40,800
Speaker 2: that's kind of everybody of note in house.

2074
01:31:40,880 --> 01:31:41,320
Speaker 3: Mooe Aley.

2075
01:31:41,360 --> 01:31:43,439
Speaker 2: Cox is a free agent, Drew Ogle Tree as a

2076
01:31:43,439 --> 01:31:46,240
Speaker 2: free agent. Again, we mentioned Samson ev a common, Taekwon

2077
01:31:46,280 --> 01:31:48,920
Speaker 2: Lewis earlier, Jermaine Pratt at linebacker. I do think it

2078
01:31:48,960 --> 01:31:52,200
Speaker 2: is of note because Ya Franklin is now gone. Are

2079
01:31:52,200 --> 01:31:55,120
Speaker 2: you gonna have two new starting linebackers or you're just

2080
01:31:55,120 --> 01:31:56,880
Speaker 2: gonna have one? Are you gonna bring back Pratt?

2081
01:31:56,920 --> 01:31:57,120
Speaker 1: Here?

2082
01:31:57,520 --> 01:31:59,599
Speaker 2: Kind of the second wave of free agency, because that's

2083
01:31:59,640 --> 01:32:02,720
Speaker 2: one thing we've learned. You know about Chris Ballard, You

2084
01:32:02,760 --> 01:32:05,639
Speaker 2: know he obviously just because he doesn't resign you right away,

2085
01:32:06,560 --> 01:32:12,880
Speaker 2: he he is able to you know whatever, sign in

2086
01:32:13,040 --> 01:32:15,360
Speaker 2: house guys a couple of days or even a week

2087
01:32:15,439 --> 01:32:17,920
Speaker 2: or two into free agency, So that'll be something to

2088
01:32:17,920 --> 01:32:18,360
Speaker 2: watch him.

2089
01:32:18,400 --> 01:32:20,599
Speaker 1: Got throw out a crazy one to you guys, kind

2090
01:32:20,600 --> 01:32:24,120
Speaker 1: of in the spirit of Justin Houston the very end

2091
01:32:24,160 --> 01:32:26,479
Speaker 1: of his career. Would you be interested in a Cam

2092
01:32:26,560 --> 01:32:28,639
Speaker 1: Jordan coming off a ten and a half sec season

2093
01:32:28,720 --> 01:32:30,599
Speaker 1: last year for New Orleans, a guy that hasn't missed

2094
01:32:30,600 --> 01:32:35,559
Speaker 1: a football game since his rookie season, gonna be thirty seven?

2095
01:32:35,880 --> 01:32:37,679
Speaker 1: I know, but I had ten and a half last year.

2096
01:32:41,080 --> 01:32:44,400
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say yes. How much interest probably depends on

2097
01:32:44,400 --> 01:32:45,479
Speaker 4: how much he costs, but.

2098
01:32:46,000 --> 01:32:49,040
Speaker 1: About six million something like that. Six to seven million

2099
01:32:49,080 --> 01:32:52,040
Speaker 1: is what the market seems to It's just I'm just

2100
01:32:52,040 --> 01:32:53,320
Speaker 1: throwing out possibilities.

2101
01:32:53,680 --> 01:32:54,719
Speaker 3: It's just nothing, really.

2102
01:32:54,760 --> 01:32:59,160
Speaker 2: I think gives you all the warm and fuzzies, you know, like,

2103
01:32:59,479 --> 01:33:01,639
Speaker 2: do we need to use the Larry David giff again here?

2104
01:33:02,320 --> 01:33:03,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's kind of the.

2105
01:33:05,479 --> 01:33:07,080
Speaker 1: We'll get back to the NFL coming up in just

2106
01:33:07,080 --> 01:33:10,120
Speaker 1: a moment, but right now college basketball Big Ten Tournament

2107
01:33:10,120 --> 01:33:12,559
Speaker 1: getting ready for the NCAA Tournament. One of our favorites

2108
01:33:12,560 --> 01:33:15,679
Speaker 1: from the Big Ten Network and just a terrific coach,

2109
01:33:15,760 --> 01:33:18,479
Speaker 1: terrific person all the way around. Bruce Webber joins us

2110
01:33:18,479 --> 01:33:21,639
Speaker 1: on the Paylesslookers Hotline this morning. Coach, are you sleeping

2111
01:33:21,720 --> 01:33:23,880
Speaker 1: this week? Is there any rest for you at all?

2112
01:33:25,360 --> 01:33:28,559
Speaker 9: I think I got about three hours last night, so

2113
01:33:28,720 --> 01:33:32,280
Speaker 9: it was. We got back from doing the Big Show

2114
01:33:32,640 --> 01:33:34,960
Speaker 9: a little after midnight. I had to grab a beer

2115
01:33:35,040 --> 01:33:37,720
Speaker 9: and something to eat. Then I had to do some

2116
01:33:37,800 --> 01:33:42,120
Speaker 9: work for the show to moor this morning, and I

2117
01:33:42,200 --> 01:33:44,400
Speaker 9: finally fell asleep. Love three point thirty or so.

2118
01:33:45,080 --> 01:33:46,240
Speaker 3: Unbelievable, coach.

2119
01:33:46,280 --> 01:33:48,160
Speaker 2: We can't thank you enough for the time this morning.

2120
01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:51,880
Speaker 2: A great work with you and Dave Revson and Rayfael Davis.

2121
01:33:51,880 --> 01:33:53,960
Speaker 2: With Jake West last night postgame, I thought that was

2122
01:33:53,960 --> 01:33:56,840
Speaker 2: a fun scene there with him. I don't know if

2123
01:33:56,840 --> 01:33:58,720
Speaker 2: that was maybe the player you were expecting to be

2124
01:33:58,760 --> 01:34:00,200
Speaker 2: on set with you at the start of the night.

2125
01:34:00,240 --> 01:34:02,840
Speaker 2: But let's go to the Indiana Northwestern game from last

2126
01:34:02,920 --> 01:34:06,000
Speaker 2: night and maybe just focus on Indiana as a whole.

2127
01:34:06,040 --> 01:34:08,920
Speaker 2: As you looked at that roster that Darren Devreese did

2128
01:34:08,920 --> 01:34:11,719
Speaker 2: construct in year one, you felt like the deficiencies were.

2129
01:34:11,640 --> 01:34:17,439
Speaker 9: Where there's no doubt it was inside the physicality and uh,

2130
01:34:17,840 --> 01:34:21,280
Speaker 9: you know, they they went inside a little bit, but

2131
01:34:21,400 --> 01:34:24,120
Speaker 9: they just did not have the length, the size, and

2132
01:34:24,200 --> 01:34:25,680
Speaker 9: the physicality inside.

2133
01:34:25,720 --> 01:34:26,719
Speaker 5: And I think.

2134
01:34:26,680 --> 01:34:29,320
Speaker 9: Everyone kind of knew that when they looked at the roster.

2135
01:34:29,520 --> 01:34:32,720
Speaker 9: I believe we talked about it when I you know,

2136
01:34:32,760 --> 01:34:35,679
Speaker 9: when you called before the Purdue game, the first one,

2137
01:34:35,760 --> 01:34:39,920
Speaker 9: and you know, it just it really showed up, uh,

2138
01:34:40,120 --> 01:34:43,200
Speaker 9: you know, big time. You know, as it as the

2139
01:34:43,240 --> 01:34:46,240
Speaker 9: season went on, and and you know in the league,

2140
01:34:46,320 --> 01:34:48,920
Speaker 9: it's it's kind of funny and we I've talked about

2141
01:34:48,920 --> 01:34:52,679
Speaker 9: this with other people. You know, we played small ball

2142
01:34:52,720 --> 01:34:56,559
Speaker 9: and oh five before anyone else did with that, you know,

2143
01:34:56,640 --> 01:35:00,879
Speaker 9: with Darren Williams, Luther head, Deep Brown, James Augusty, Roger Powell.

2144
01:35:01,200 --> 01:35:03,160
Speaker 9: You know, the NBA kind of went to that. But

2145
01:35:03,520 --> 01:35:07,600
Speaker 9: the Big ten now has become a big physical league.

2146
01:35:07,680 --> 01:35:12,400
Speaker 9: And you know, that's that's been the definite trend and

2147
01:35:13,000 --> 01:35:18,000
Speaker 9: it's been successful. Now, yesterday's case, obviously Northwestern isn't big,

2148
01:35:18,240 --> 01:35:21,320
Speaker 9: and they still weren't able to take advantage of any

2149
01:35:21,360 --> 01:35:24,960
Speaker 9: of their size inside. And then maybe the toughness to

2150
01:35:25,320 --> 01:35:28,559
Speaker 9: you know, I think when you get a roster and

2151
01:35:28,640 --> 01:35:31,839
Speaker 9: when I you know, tried to put it together teams.

2152
01:35:31,920 --> 01:35:35,160
Speaker 9: I still remember trying to put together the USA team

2153
01:35:35,200 --> 01:35:38,439
Speaker 9: for the World Championships in nineteen. You know, one of

2154
01:35:38,479 --> 01:35:41,160
Speaker 9: the things I really wanted to do. You've got to

2155
01:35:41,160 --> 01:35:44,760
Speaker 9: get some defenders. You've got to get some rebounders. You know,

2156
01:35:44,880 --> 01:35:48,800
Speaker 9: that physical part mixed in with the skill and you know,

2157
01:35:48,960 --> 01:35:51,519
Speaker 9: the you know, when you look at Michigan, you know

2158
01:35:51,600 --> 01:35:55,960
Speaker 9: they they're just so fortunate they have skill, but they

2159
01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:59,360
Speaker 9: also have the physicality and you know, but you know,

2160
01:35:59,439 --> 01:36:01,800
Speaker 9: they have the best players in the league and that's

2161
01:36:01,840 --> 01:36:03,800
Speaker 9: why they won the league and did what they did.

2162
01:36:04,360 --> 01:36:06,599
Speaker 4: Again, we're talking to Bruce Weber here on the Pilllow

2163
01:36:06,600 --> 01:36:10,519
Speaker 4: Suckers Hotline. Bruce, do you think it's to your point

2164
01:36:10,760 --> 01:36:12,719
Speaker 4: you just made right now? Do you think it's harder

2165
01:36:12,840 --> 01:36:16,360
Speaker 4: or easier to build teams that have the togetherness and

2166
01:36:16,400 --> 01:36:19,040
Speaker 4: the toughness in today's NIL era.

2167
01:36:18,960 --> 01:36:20,080
Speaker 5: Because you can't reload.

2168
01:36:20,160 --> 01:36:23,320
Speaker 4: You can retool rather quickly, but there's a lot of

2169
01:36:23,320 --> 01:36:25,480
Speaker 4: turnover as well.

2170
01:36:25,960 --> 01:36:29,880
Speaker 9: Yeah, it's obviously some teams have done it. Teamate did it,

2171
01:36:30,120 --> 01:36:31,160
Speaker 9: and you know they.

2172
01:36:31,600 --> 01:36:32,160
Speaker 1: Think about it.

2173
01:36:32,160 --> 01:36:35,479
Speaker 9: They have three guys on the All Defensive team and

2174
01:36:35,680 --> 01:36:38,200
Speaker 9: probably some other guys that might even been considered.

2175
01:36:38,280 --> 01:36:41,360
Speaker 1: So he he was had the good.

2176
01:36:41,200 --> 01:36:45,280
Speaker 9: Fortune of doing it and putting that roster together. You know,

2177
01:36:45,479 --> 01:36:49,040
Speaker 9: roster management now is really really important.

2178
01:36:49,760 --> 01:36:51,000
Speaker 1: And you know when you're.

2179
01:36:50,880 --> 01:36:53,280
Speaker 9: Looking at it, and I believe I've talked to you

2180
01:36:53,280 --> 01:36:55,439
Speaker 9: guys about it for it's you know, you got to

2181
01:36:55,479 --> 01:36:58,280
Speaker 9: evaluate guys. You've got to look for guys that have

2182
01:36:59,120 --> 01:37:01,680
Speaker 9: been in good programs, that have been coached, that have

2183
01:37:01,720 --> 01:37:06,160
Speaker 9: been held accountable, that have won and you know, and

2184
01:37:06,680 --> 01:37:09,400
Speaker 9: if you have enough money, you can get the right guys.

2185
01:37:09,680 --> 01:37:12,800
Speaker 9: And uh and and that's what it comes down to.

2186
01:37:13,040 --> 01:37:16,400
Speaker 9: So I think that if the evaluation is really important,

2187
01:37:16,680 --> 01:37:20,439
Speaker 9: but then also the valuation how how much are they

2188
01:37:20,479 --> 01:37:23,960
Speaker 9: really worth? And then you know, then you look at

2189
01:37:23,960 --> 01:37:27,280
Speaker 9: your payroll can you pay that? And then do they

2190
01:37:27,280 --> 01:37:30,960
Speaker 9: have the motivation? And it seems like the Michigan guys,

2191
01:37:31,000 --> 01:37:33,920
Speaker 9: see does he hit it with all those guys this year.

2192
01:37:34,000 --> 01:37:36,280
Speaker 9: Now will he do that next year? You know, we'll

2193
01:37:36,400 --> 01:37:39,720
Speaker 9: we'll have to wait and see. And you know, if

2194
01:37:39,880 --> 01:37:42,040
Speaker 9: if he can do it again, then then he might

2195
01:37:42,080 --> 01:37:44,640
Speaker 9: be have the magic touch. I don't know, but I

2196
01:37:44,680 --> 01:37:49,120
Speaker 9: thought the coach Degrees put a good roster together and

2197
01:37:49,800 --> 01:37:53,800
Speaker 9: but yet it didn't have all the right ingredients that

2198
01:37:53,880 --> 01:37:56,880
Speaker 9: you needed. And then a little bit to learn about what.

2199
01:37:56,800 --> 01:37:57,759
Speaker 1: The league is about.

2200
01:37:58,320 --> 01:38:02,080
Speaker 9: I think, you know, hopefully the second year around he

2201
01:38:02,120 --> 01:38:05,519
Speaker 9: can do a little better job with that coach.

2202
01:38:05,560 --> 01:38:10,240
Speaker 1: I'm just curious with the free for all that every

2203
01:38:10,560 --> 01:38:14,839
Speaker 1: immediate offseason brings. Now, would you want to coach anymore?

2204
01:38:15,520 --> 01:38:20,120
Speaker 9: I you know, I talked to people, and I talked

2205
01:38:20,120 --> 01:38:23,280
Speaker 9: to Tom Izzo a couple of weeks ago, and he

2206
01:38:23,560 --> 01:38:27,160
Speaker 9: said he said, he's just said, Bruce, this is my

2207
01:38:27,360 --> 01:38:29,200
Speaker 9: assistant coach. Came to me and said we got to

2208
01:38:29,240 --> 01:38:31,880
Speaker 9: start looking at our budget for next year. He goes,

2209
01:38:31,960 --> 01:38:35,120
Speaker 9: I'm trying to win a Big ten championship. I'm trying

2210
01:38:35,120 --> 01:38:37,479
Speaker 9: to get in the NCAA tournament and go as far

2211
01:38:37,520 --> 01:38:39,720
Speaker 9: as we can with these guys. I can't I don't

2212
01:38:39,720 --> 01:38:42,800
Speaker 9: want to think about that. But he said, we got

2213
01:38:42,840 --> 01:38:44,760
Speaker 9: to have our budget ready so as soon as the

2214
01:38:44,800 --> 01:38:48,280
Speaker 9: season is over, we can start and those people start

2215
01:38:48,360 --> 01:38:52,240
Speaker 9: jumping into portal, we're ready for that. And there's there's

2216
01:38:52,280 --> 01:38:57,320
Speaker 9: just no break. I think that's what been really frustrating

2217
01:38:57,360 --> 01:38:59,880
Speaker 9: for coaches when I talked to them, not just Tom,

2218
01:39:00,360 --> 01:39:03,160
Speaker 9: you know, whether it's Matt Paynter, Scott Drew, whoever I've

2219
01:39:03,200 --> 01:39:07,240
Speaker 9: talked to. And you know, as last last spring that

2220
01:39:07,360 --> 01:39:12,000
Speaker 9: they just did not have a break. And it's continuous

2221
01:39:12,040 --> 01:39:15,680
Speaker 9: and and I know coaches get paid a lot, but

2222
01:39:16,640 --> 01:39:20,040
Speaker 9: you also take a lot of scrutiny. You you give

2223
01:39:20,120 --> 01:39:24,080
Speaker 9: up your life and and and it's hard. So it's

2224
01:39:24,560 --> 01:39:26,880
Speaker 9: you know, it would be difficult to do it. There's

2225
01:39:26,920 --> 01:39:30,160
Speaker 9: no doubt and and I you know you I think

2226
01:39:30,160 --> 01:39:32,280
Speaker 9: you guys have asked me that before. I've always said,

2227
01:39:32,280 --> 01:39:35,360
Speaker 9: if it was the right situation, uh, you know, right

2228
01:39:35,439 --> 01:39:38,080
Speaker 9: people around me, right budget type of thing like that,

2229
01:39:38,240 --> 01:39:42,360
Speaker 9: I might consider it. But it doesn't seem like it's

2230
01:39:42,360 --> 01:39:44,720
Speaker 9: a whole lot of fun for many coaches right now.

2231
01:39:45,080 --> 01:39:47,639
Speaker 2: That's a voice of Bruce Weber. Obviously you see him

2232
01:39:47,640 --> 01:39:50,360
Speaker 2: currently on Big ten Network. He was a busy, busy

2233
01:39:50,400 --> 01:39:52,920
Speaker 2: man last night. So we greatly appreciate him waking up

2234
01:39:52,960 --> 01:39:55,800
Speaker 2: early with us here as it's another active day at

2235
01:39:55,840 --> 01:39:59,120
Speaker 2: the United Center. And this from listener Fish. He chimes in,

2236
01:39:59,200 --> 01:40:03,560
Speaker 2: he goes coach Web Purdue basketball camp was awesome, personable,

2237
01:40:03,880 --> 01:40:07,040
Speaker 2: always there, always approachable, super great guy.

2238
01:40:07,520 --> 01:40:08,519
Speaker 3: So there you go, coach.

2239
01:40:09,240 --> 01:40:11,960
Speaker 2: We'll compliment from your Purdue basketball camp days from back

2240
01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:12,439
Speaker 2: in the day.

2241
01:40:13,120 --> 01:40:17,680
Speaker 9: Yeah, it was a blast. That was eighteen summers and

2242
01:40:17,800 --> 01:40:22,080
Speaker 9: we probably went at least two thousand kids this summer.

2243
01:40:22,200 --> 01:40:22,280
Speaker 6: And.

2244
01:40:23,800 --> 01:40:27,240
Speaker 9: Probably there were some years that went three thousand and

2245
01:40:27,400 --> 01:40:31,000
Speaker 9: Glenn Robinson here we probably had four thousand kids. We

2246
01:40:31,040 --> 01:40:34,200
Speaker 9: had about playgrounds because everyone wanted to beat Big Dog.

2247
01:40:34,320 --> 01:40:38,040
Speaker 9: But you know, and I always think about that the

2248
01:40:38,760 --> 01:40:43,000
Speaker 9: I would have, you know, babysitters at our house and

2249
01:40:43,040 --> 01:40:45,520
Speaker 9: their boyfriends would come over and they said, coach you

2250
01:40:45,520 --> 01:40:47,880
Speaker 9: you were at camp, but you taught me this or something.

2251
01:40:47,920 --> 01:40:50,800
Speaker 9: I'm like, oh, you know, you just don't realize how

2252
01:40:51,120 --> 01:40:54,000
Speaker 9: things like that you can impact your people and or

2253
01:40:54,080 --> 01:40:57,200
Speaker 9: you said this, and I remember that. And so it

2254
01:40:58,120 --> 01:41:04,240
Speaker 9: was a lot of former high school, junior high players

2255
01:41:04,240 --> 01:41:06,240
Speaker 9: that came through the camp. So it was a lot

2256
01:41:06,280 --> 01:41:07,639
Speaker 9: of fun. I always enjoyed that.

2257
01:41:07,760 --> 01:41:10,600
Speaker 2: Certainly, vivid memories for many growing up, to say the

2258
01:41:10,680 --> 01:41:13,439
Speaker 2: least last one for me, if I took Michigan off

2259
01:41:13,479 --> 01:41:16,519
Speaker 2: the board, the Big ten team you trust the most

2260
01:41:16,960 --> 01:41:18,720
Speaker 2: to get on a run here in March.

2261
01:41:21,479 --> 01:41:23,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with two of them.

2262
01:41:23,880 --> 01:41:26,200
Speaker 9: I'm gonna go with the Iliini and I'm gonna go

2263
01:41:26,280 --> 01:41:31,160
Speaker 9: with Michigan State, And I think each one when the

2264
01:41:31,240 --> 01:41:35,640
Speaker 9: ali and their size, their ability to shoot, you know,

2265
01:41:35,880 --> 01:41:40,320
Speaker 9: I think that now again, the shooting and depending on

2266
01:41:40,360 --> 01:41:42,920
Speaker 9: that has been you know, costly at times for them

2267
01:41:42,960 --> 01:41:47,120
Speaker 9: this season. And then Michigan State doesn't have quite the shooting,

2268
01:41:47,160 --> 01:41:51,160
Speaker 9: but they have the Tom is Old basketball, you know, brand,

2269
01:41:51,600 --> 01:41:54,559
Speaker 9: the toughness, the defense, and they have a point guard

2270
01:41:54,560 --> 01:41:56,719
Speaker 9: that can really make plays. And that's what the Aliana

2271
01:41:56,880 --> 01:41:59,720
Speaker 9: has too. And you you know, we everyone talks about

2272
01:41:59,760 --> 01:42:03,920
Speaker 9: it to make plays for you in March and help

2273
01:42:04,000 --> 01:42:07,200
Speaker 9: you advance. And both of them have really, really good

2274
01:42:07,280 --> 01:42:09,280
Speaker 9: point guards that can make some plays.

2275
01:42:09,840 --> 01:42:13,519
Speaker 1: Bruce Webber joining us on the Payless Liquors Hotline. It's

2276
01:42:13,600 --> 01:42:15,559
Speaker 1: gonna be a wild couple of days. We know that

2277
01:42:15,680 --> 01:42:18,320
Speaker 1: we never know exactly what's gonna happen, but usually something

2278
01:42:18,360 --> 01:42:21,760
Speaker 1: surprises us. Any any dark horse you see making a

2279
01:42:21,840 --> 01:42:22,280
Speaker 1: run here.

2280
01:42:23,360 --> 01:42:25,840
Speaker 9: Well, you know, I was gonna say Wisconsin last day

2281
01:42:26,200 --> 01:42:30,479
Speaker 9: or one of the shows yesterday that we started about

2282
01:42:30,840 --> 01:42:35,000
Speaker 9: ten thirty in the morning, so it I but then

2283
01:42:35,080 --> 01:42:38,160
Speaker 9: I thought about it. To play four games, it's really

2284
01:42:38,200 --> 01:42:41,360
Speaker 9: tough to win that Big Ten tournament. So I still

2285
01:42:41,400 --> 01:42:44,080
Speaker 9: think the guys that have the don't play it on Friday.

2286
01:42:44,120 --> 01:42:46,280
Speaker 9: We haven't We're gonna have games again today. We haven't

2287
01:42:46,280 --> 01:42:50,160
Speaker 9: even seen four teams tomorrow, so you know, I think

2288
01:42:50,200 --> 01:42:52,680
Speaker 9: the teams that are only gonna have to play the

2289
01:42:52,720 --> 01:42:58,080
Speaker 9: three games have the advantage. And you know, I'm hoping

2290
01:42:59,000 --> 01:43:02,639
Speaker 9: for producing for Matt Paynter for I want to see

2291
01:43:02,680 --> 01:43:05,760
Speaker 9: Brayden Smith play as many games as possible. I'd love

2292
01:43:05,800 --> 01:43:08,000
Speaker 9: to have him set that ass this record. It would

2293
01:43:08,040 --> 01:43:12,240
Speaker 9: be really cool for him for Purdue basketball. But the

2294
01:43:12,280 --> 01:43:14,320
Speaker 9: only way that's going to happen is they're going to

2295
01:43:14,360 --> 01:43:17,200
Speaker 9: have to be a little better defense and toughness wise,

2296
01:43:17,680 --> 01:43:19,200
Speaker 9: and they're going to have to get a little run

2297
01:43:19,280 --> 01:43:21,600
Speaker 9: here for him to have that opportunity.

2298
01:43:22,920 --> 01:43:25,160
Speaker 1: Coach, as always, we appreciate you doing this on a

2299
01:43:25,200 --> 01:43:26,880
Speaker 1: morning show. I know you're a very busy guy all

2300
01:43:26,960 --> 01:43:28,720
Speaker 1: week long, and can't tell you how much we love

2301
01:43:28,760 --> 01:43:31,519
Speaker 1: having you on the show. Thank you very good. Thanks.

2302
01:43:31,560 --> 01:43:32,439
Speaker 1: We'll maybe talk to.

2303
01:43:32,400 --> 01:43:33,439
Speaker 3: You the next couple of weeks.

2304
01:43:33,560 --> 01:43:36,719
Speaker 1: I look forward to it. There's Bruce Web coach Mayn.

2305
01:43:37,880 --> 01:43:40,280
Speaker 1: He made reference earlier in that interview. We've talked about

2306
01:43:40,280 --> 01:43:43,840
Speaker 1: this before to that that Illinois team he had in

2307
01:43:43,840 --> 01:43:47,240
Speaker 1: the early two thousands. That team was so fun to watch, indeed,

2308
01:43:47,600 --> 01:43:49,080
Speaker 1: so fun to watch. Manycome back to.

2309
01:43:49,040 --> 01:43:51,240
Speaker 2: That Elite eight game, one of the epic March moments,

2310
01:43:51,280 --> 01:43:54,479
Speaker 2: them in Arizona in was it the United Center or

2311
01:43:54,479 --> 01:43:55,800
Speaker 2: was it now Rose?

2312
01:43:57,160 --> 01:43:59,519
Speaker 1: I think they call it the Halls Arena now yeah.

2313
01:43:59,520 --> 01:44:01,840
Speaker 2: I actually you can now see De Paul's court in

2314
01:44:01,880 --> 01:44:04,000
Speaker 2: my eyes as I'm looking back on that game and

2315
01:44:04,120 --> 01:44:08,479
Speaker 2: has Shanning Fry for Arizona and Selim Stodomire And.

2316
01:44:08,479 --> 01:44:10,280
Speaker 1: Think I told you guys, Mike Corcion and I were

2317
01:44:10,280 --> 01:44:12,880
Speaker 1: sitting court side for that game. Really yeah, that's that

2318
01:44:13,280 --> 01:44:13,599
Speaker 1: was fun.

2319
01:44:14,120 --> 01:44:14,719
Speaker 3: Back to March.

2320
01:44:14,960 --> 01:44:16,240
Speaker 1: Just all that pops in my mind.

2321
01:44:16,360 --> 01:44:19,200
Speaker 4: Back when KB was rocking the cornballs in the headband.

2322
01:44:20,040 --> 01:44:22,200
Speaker 3: I thought about it. I thought about it more like

2323
01:44:22,280 --> 01:44:23,719
Speaker 3: James Augustine with my hairline.

2324
01:44:23,800 --> 01:44:26,840
Speaker 1: What was the last really fun IU team to watch?

2325
01:44:26,880 --> 01:44:28,520
Speaker 1: It was just fun to watch.

2326
01:44:29,880 --> 01:44:31,679
Speaker 2: Boy, I don't know if i'd use the word fun

2327
01:44:31,680 --> 01:44:35,400
Speaker 2: and IU basketball recently here? You know, what was the

2328
01:44:35,479 --> 01:44:37,600
Speaker 2: cream team? Was it Thomas Bryant that they made the

2329
01:44:37,640 --> 01:44:38,320
Speaker 2: Sweet sixteen?

2330
01:44:38,479 --> 01:44:40,280
Speaker 3: Is that right? Juwan Morgan?

2331
01:44:40,360 --> 01:44:45,360
Speaker 2: That if I remember correctly in Iowa, I want to

2332
01:44:45,400 --> 01:44:48,160
Speaker 2: say in the second round lost to North Carolina.

2333
01:44:48,160 --> 01:44:49,400
Speaker 3: I want to say in the sweet sixteen.

2334
01:44:50,120 --> 01:44:54,000
Speaker 2: So yeah, since then it's been it's been hell. But yeah,

2335
01:44:54,120 --> 01:44:55,960
Speaker 2: that was a te you know, and let's be honest.

2336
01:44:56,000 --> 01:44:57,559
Speaker 2: I mean there were some you know, Trey Shackson, Davis

2337
01:44:57,600 --> 01:45:00,960
Speaker 2: provided some moments. I mean, you beat one Purdue, right

2338
01:45:01,080 --> 01:45:03,840
Speaker 2: was Zach Edi inside of Assembly Hall? So you know,

2339
01:45:03,840 --> 01:45:06,800
Speaker 2: I don't want to act like it's just been all hell,

2340
01:45:06,840 --> 01:45:09,360
Speaker 2: but obviously it's been mostly hell.

2341
01:45:09,479 --> 01:45:12,760
Speaker 1: I think my favorite Purdue team in the last that's

2342
01:45:13,280 --> 01:45:13,479
Speaker 1: or not.

2343
01:45:13,640 --> 01:45:16,760
Speaker 4: Oh my goodness, David, it was kind of hot, but

2344
01:45:16,800 --> 01:45:17,760
Speaker 4: it ain't the hottest part.

2345
01:45:17,880 --> 01:45:18,080
Speaker 6: You know.

2346
01:45:18,880 --> 01:45:21,519
Speaker 1: I was gonna say my favorite I think team that

2347
01:45:21,640 --> 01:45:22,440
Speaker 1: was probably.

2348
01:45:22,160 --> 01:45:22,880
Speaker 3: Kind of good looking.

2349
01:45:23,479 --> 01:45:25,160
Speaker 5: I would tell you it goes back to what I say.

2350
01:45:25,280 --> 01:45:27,080
Speaker 4: You know, if you have you ever asked someone how

2351
01:45:27,080 --> 01:45:29,200
Speaker 4: they look or how did some foods say?

2352
01:45:29,240 --> 01:45:31,439
Speaker 5: It ain't bad? I mean, it ain't good.

2353
01:45:31,439 --> 01:45:36,840
Speaker 1: I like that Carson Edwards Purdue team Ryan Crazy shot that. Yeah, yeah,

2354
01:45:36,840 --> 01:45:38,280
Speaker 1: I mean, but I mean if all the Purdue teams

2355
01:45:38,280 --> 01:45:39,120
Speaker 1: thought that was that was my fa.

2356
01:45:39,160 --> 01:45:41,120
Speaker 2: I mean, you think of that Sweet sixteen game of

2357
01:45:41,160 --> 01:45:44,000
Speaker 2: what Ryan Klein did against Tennessee, and you know, I

2358
01:45:44,040 --> 01:45:46,639
Speaker 2: mean that was a team Grady Eifford and No Gel Easter,

2359
01:45:46,720 --> 01:45:48,240
Speaker 2: and I mean it's not like that was a team

2360
01:45:48,280 --> 01:45:51,000
Speaker 2: that was filled with a bunch of necessarily guys that

2361
01:45:51,800 --> 01:45:53,200
Speaker 2: you would have thought could have gotten that run.

2362
01:45:53,240 --> 01:45:55,080
Speaker 3: But and I remember they had a shooting display like

2363
01:45:55,120 --> 01:45:55,400
Speaker 3: none other.

2364
01:45:55,439 --> 01:45:57,559
Speaker 2: I want to say it was Villa Nova maybe before

2365
01:45:57,600 --> 01:46:00,960
Speaker 2: they played Tennessee in that in that run they yes,

2366
01:46:00,960 --> 01:46:04,920
Speaker 2: so Purdue, Yes, I would say Purdue. Not in Hell.

2367
01:46:05,000 --> 01:46:07,400
Speaker 2: I'll be at their fan base a little flustered right now.

2368
01:46:08,080 --> 01:46:11,080
Speaker 2: They've had far far more of those fun moments.

2369
01:46:11,160 --> 01:46:14,160
Speaker 4: To use Jeff's words, Wright, please clip that. I'm just

2370
01:46:14,200 --> 01:46:16,599
Speaker 4: thinking not in Hell, but we're mostly there.

2371
01:46:16,640 --> 01:46:19,200
Speaker 6: I'm just thinking of like Kevin doing Larry David impress Milk.

2372
01:46:19,680 --> 01:46:21,160
Speaker 6: I don't know, I thought it'd be kind of hotter,

2373
01:46:21,360 --> 01:46:22,240
Speaker 6: kind of disappointed.

2374
01:46:22,520 --> 01:46:26,920
Speaker 3: I know, am I wrong?

2375
01:46:27,439 --> 01:46:30,759
Speaker 2: I feel like it's an app description, but the wording

2376
01:46:30,800 --> 01:46:33,000
Speaker 2: there boy in a decade, when you've made the tournament

2377
01:46:33,000 --> 01:46:35,080
Speaker 2: twice in the decade and your wins over Wyoming and

2378
01:46:35,160 --> 01:46:39,000
Speaker 2: Kent State, it's mostly been all right.

2379
01:46:39,080 --> 01:46:40,560
Speaker 1: Let's do a quick checkdown.

2380
01:46:42,200 --> 01:46:45,400
Speaker 8: The morning checkdown on ninety sweet five and one oh

2381
01:46:45,479 --> 01:46:46,360
Speaker 8: seven five the.

2382
01:46:46,400 --> 01:46:50,800
Speaker 1: Fan, Speaking of college basketball. Perdue plays tonight six thirty

2383
01:46:50,840 --> 01:46:52,880
Speaker 1: in the Big Ten Tournament. They will go up against

2384
01:46:52,920 --> 01:46:57,639
Speaker 1: Northwestern after Northwestern took it all took it out again

2385
01:46:57,720 --> 01:47:01,120
Speaker 1: on Indiana last night. They've won seven and row against

2386
01:47:01,200 --> 01:47:05,240
Speaker 1: Indiana last night they were down ten with nine to

2387
01:47:05,320 --> 01:47:07,320
Speaker 1: forty five to go in the first half, and by

2388
01:47:07,400 --> 01:47:10,680
Speaker 1: ten minutes left in the second half, Northwestern led by

2389
01:47:10,760 --> 01:47:12,880
Speaker 1: ten and they go on to win that one last night.

2390
01:47:13,160 --> 01:47:16,680
Speaker 1: So it'll be Northwestern Purdue at six thirty. Purdue has

2391
01:47:16,760 --> 01:47:18,400
Speaker 1: lost four of their last six. Let's see if they

2392
01:47:18,439 --> 01:47:19,960
Speaker 1: can get back on track here. Kevin.

2393
01:47:20,439 --> 01:47:22,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, it's kind of funny when Bruce Webber

2394
01:47:22,040 --> 01:47:24,559
Speaker 2: got into the deep runs of a Big Ten tournament.

2395
01:47:24,600 --> 01:47:26,799
Speaker 2: It's like, for a Purdue fan, what would you consider

2396
01:47:26,840 --> 01:47:29,519
Speaker 2: an ideal week? Do you really want to play four

2397
01:47:29,560 --> 01:47:32,479
Speaker 2: games in four days? I know that sounds crazy, but like,

2398
01:47:33,000 --> 01:47:36,719
Speaker 2: is the ideal week? Winning two and then you stop,

2399
01:47:37,000 --> 01:47:38,760
Speaker 2: you know, how much do you want from a league

2400
01:47:38,840 --> 01:47:42,599
Speaker 2: standpoint heading into next week? Because again, these conference tournaments

2401
01:47:42,640 --> 01:47:46,160
Speaker 2: now are so expanded. So yeah, looking forward to this

2402
01:47:46,280 --> 01:47:49,000
Speaker 2: night though, because I thought north Western gave Purdue everything

2403
01:47:49,040 --> 01:47:51,320
Speaker 2: they could handle last week and C. J.

2404
01:47:51,479 --> 01:47:52,720
Speaker 3: Cox saved him from hell.

2405
01:47:53,040 --> 01:47:55,000
Speaker 5: Each of weed he's and drinking water, You'll be all right.

2406
01:47:55,280 --> 01:47:57,920
Speaker 2: We went there and Brady Smith, Bruce Weber would have

2407
01:47:57,920 --> 01:47:59,920
Speaker 2: said if I asked that to him as a head coach,

2408
01:48:00,160 --> 01:48:03,200
Speaker 2: I do think any part of you that doesn't want

2409
01:48:03,280 --> 01:48:05,320
Speaker 2: to play four games in four days now that means

2410
01:48:05,360 --> 01:48:07,720
Speaker 2: you're in the Big Ten championship. If you play four

2411
01:48:07,720 --> 01:48:09,880
Speaker 2: games in four days, it's a great accomplishment. But is

2412
01:48:09,880 --> 01:48:12,160
Speaker 2: there any part of you that looks ahead to next week?

2413
01:48:12,720 --> 01:48:15,160
Speaker 4: I think there's a certain part of you, But I

2414
01:48:15,200 --> 01:48:18,080
Speaker 4: think that's like more of like a medical staff question

2415
01:48:18,200 --> 01:48:18,639
Speaker 4: than a coach.

2416
01:48:19,000 --> 01:48:20,280
Speaker 5: The coach is gonna go out there and want to win.

2417
01:48:20,400 --> 01:48:22,720
Speaker 2: So because it was last year, maybe it was two

2418
01:48:22,800 --> 01:48:24,800
Speaker 2: years ago where Brayden turned his ankle in the Big

2419
01:48:24,840 --> 01:48:28,200
Speaker 2: Ten tournament and it's like, yeah, you know, oh my god,

2420
01:48:29,120 --> 01:48:32,360
Speaker 2: here we are, you know, and a few of those

2421
01:48:32,360 --> 01:48:34,160
Speaker 2: scares where it's like Ohack.

2422
01:48:33,720 --> 01:48:35,599
Speaker 5: Especially in today's inn il error. You can get out

2423
01:48:35,600 --> 01:48:36,360
Speaker 5: there and play.

2424
01:48:36,560 --> 01:48:38,599
Speaker 1: I'm ready for Brady Sport to go on a Kimba

2425
01:48:38,640 --> 01:48:42,200
Speaker 1: walker run. Let's go sweep the big ten, get some

2426
01:48:42,240 --> 01:48:44,639
Speaker 1: momentum going into the NCAA tournament. Just keep going.

2427
01:48:44,680 --> 01:48:46,360
Speaker 2: And I always feel bad. I saw the highlight of

2428
01:48:46,400 --> 01:48:48,840
Speaker 2: the Kimba shot the other day. That's Gary McGee, the

2429
01:48:48,880 --> 01:48:53,160
Speaker 2: Anderson product guarding him. I'm like, man, I mean, you

2430
01:48:53,240 --> 01:48:54,880
Speaker 2: got the big guy on the switch with them. It

2431
01:48:54,920 --> 01:48:56,080
Speaker 2: wasn't gonna end well.

2432
01:48:56,880 --> 01:48:59,720
Speaker 5: No, he it didn't. Well it was hell, but you know,

2433
01:49:01,080 --> 01:49:01,759
Speaker 5: mostly Hew.

2434
01:49:02,200 --> 01:49:04,679
Speaker 1: Butler finished their season last night. They dropped to sixteen

2435
01:49:04,720 --> 01:49:07,920
Speaker 1: and sixteen with a Big East loss to Providence. Michael

2436
01:49:07,960 --> 01:49:11,799
Speaker 1: Lajai played well again twenty one points, eleven rebounds for assists,

2437
01:49:11,800 --> 01:49:15,320
Speaker 1: Finley Bijack had seventeen, but no Michael Lagai coming back

2438
01:49:15,360 --> 01:49:17,240
Speaker 1: next year, and that might is going to have to

2439
01:49:17,280 --> 01:49:20,559
Speaker 1: reload and apparently some more resources at Butler between now

2440
01:49:20,560 --> 01:49:21,080
Speaker 1: and next year.

2441
01:49:21,280 --> 01:49:22,760
Speaker 2: Well, they're going to have to, you know, if they

2442
01:49:22,760 --> 01:49:25,160
Speaker 2: want to withstand injuries, because this year, as soon as

2443
01:49:25,160 --> 01:49:27,840
Speaker 2: the injuries started to happen, they had no quality depth

2444
01:49:27,880 --> 01:49:30,200
Speaker 2: to be able to handle that so yeah, it's been

2445
01:49:30,280 --> 01:49:32,920
Speaker 2: just a very disappointing Big Ee season. Obviously, injuries are

2446
01:49:32,960 --> 01:49:36,000
Speaker 2: part of the story there. But still sixteen point lead

2447
01:49:36,080 --> 01:49:38,760
Speaker 2: yesterday and you blow it and really well, I mean

2448
01:49:38,760 --> 01:49:41,160
Speaker 2: the final score is what it was, probably double figures.

2449
01:49:40,800 --> 01:49:43,719
Speaker 1: By the end of it. Pacers return home to play

2450
01:49:43,720 --> 01:49:46,400
Speaker 1: Phoenix tonight. They've lost ten in a row, and you

2451
01:49:46,479 --> 01:49:49,120
Speaker 1: take a look at that injury list, and yes, it

2452
01:49:49,479 --> 01:49:52,080
Speaker 1: seems to be normal now when you look at Andrew Nemhart,

2453
01:49:52,080 --> 01:49:57,479
Speaker 1: Aaron Nesmith, TJ mcconnaellll questionable, Pascal siaka mcquentin Jackson doubtful.

2454
01:49:57,560 --> 01:50:01,840
Speaker 1: But also on this list, James Boyd beats a Zubots questionable.

2455
01:50:02,920 --> 01:50:05,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's been upgraded and simpically when that has happened

2456
01:50:05,800 --> 01:50:09,040
Speaker 4: throughout the season, that player has played for the Pacers.

2457
01:50:09,080 --> 01:50:12,000
Speaker 4: So could he make his debut tonight and play all

2458
01:50:12,040 --> 01:50:12,840
Speaker 4: forty eight minutes?

2459
01:50:13,160 --> 01:50:15,360
Speaker 1: They got three home games coming up here and maybe

2460
01:50:15,400 --> 01:50:18,320
Speaker 1: one of those, right, play at least four point eight

2461
01:50:18,360 --> 01:50:19,040
Speaker 1: minutes somewhere.

2462
01:50:19,160 --> 01:50:22,760
Speaker 4: A man, I'm just letting you know, go from zero

2463
01:50:22,880 --> 01:50:25,639
Speaker 4: to sixty right now. Me and Rick Carlisle exchange game

2464
01:50:25,680 --> 01:50:26,519
Speaker 4: plans often.

2465
01:50:27,240 --> 01:50:29,519
Speaker 1: All right, that'll be a six thirty airtime here on

2466
01:50:29,560 --> 01:50:33,800
Speaker 1: the fan. Tonight tip comes at seven o'clock. Team USA Women,

2467
01:50:34,160 --> 01:50:36,840
Speaker 1: powered by Caitlyn Clark last night playing in a World

2468
01:50:36,880 --> 01:50:40,439
Speaker 1: Cup qualifier down in Puerto Rico. Not the greatest of competition.

2469
01:50:40,479 --> 01:50:43,240
Speaker 1: They beat Senegal one ten to forty six, but Caitlyn

2470
01:50:43,280 --> 01:50:46,840
Speaker 1: Clark had seventeen points and twelve assists on four of

2471
01:50:46,960 --> 01:50:49,240
Speaker 1: five shooting. All of those were three point shots, but

2472
01:50:49,840 --> 01:50:52,720
Speaker 1: passing dimes around. Didn't even play a full half. She

2473
01:50:52,880 --> 01:50:55,120
Speaker 1: was looking like she hadn't missed any time, even though

2474
01:50:55,120 --> 01:50:56,280
Speaker 1: she hadn't played in eight months.

2475
01:50:56,400 --> 01:50:57,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, she was cooking. She was cooking.

2476
01:50:58,080 --> 01:51:00,479
Speaker 2: She was distributing like she always does, such a high

2477
01:51:00,560 --> 01:51:01,599
Speaker 2: level hit few of those.

2478
01:51:01,640 --> 01:51:03,599
Speaker 3: Caitlin Clark patt the threes.

2479
01:51:03,760 --> 01:51:08,599
Speaker 2: So competition certainly a bit different than what you would expect,

2480
01:51:08,600 --> 01:51:11,280
Speaker 2: but nonetheless just her getting out there. They've got like

2481
01:51:11,320 --> 01:51:13,360
Speaker 2: four or five games now over the next six days,

2482
01:51:13,360 --> 01:51:15,400
Speaker 2: so I will be curious as how much you know,

2483
01:51:15,680 --> 01:51:18,799
Speaker 2: all of them play. Her minutes were pretty limited anyway,

2484
01:51:18,840 --> 01:51:20,519
Speaker 2: she didn't even start. She came off the bench.

2485
01:51:21,360 --> 01:51:25,320
Speaker 3: So yeah, great USA senior debut, right first time? Everyone

2486
01:51:25,439 --> 01:51:26,599
Speaker 3: a yeah, big big nater.

2487
01:51:26,520 --> 01:51:28,880
Speaker 5: The greatest sixth woman in team unisy.

2488
01:51:29,160 --> 01:51:30,360
Speaker 1: She came off the bench last.

2489
01:51:30,200 --> 01:51:32,400
Speaker 2: Year her she was the sixth one and Paige Becker's

2490
01:51:32,479 --> 01:51:35,679
Speaker 2: was the eleventh woman. Oh that's a pretty damn good team.

2491
01:51:35,520 --> 01:51:38,240
Speaker 1: When you can pull that out, right, Yeah, Carol Losston

2492
01:51:38,240 --> 01:51:40,800
Speaker 1: says she was just kind of experimenting with lineups right now.

2493
01:51:40,840 --> 01:51:43,759
Speaker 1: See what's kind of working. I think it can Senegal.

2494
01:51:43,800 --> 01:51:44,920
Speaker 1: Anything works, that doesn't it?

2495
01:51:45,040 --> 01:51:47,320
Speaker 3: Am I wrong? Is Carol lost in the Duke head coach?

2496
01:51:47,479 --> 01:51:47,759
Speaker 5: Yes?

2497
01:51:47,800 --> 01:51:48,120
Speaker 6: She is?

2498
01:51:48,680 --> 01:51:48,920
Speaker 1: Yep.

2499
01:51:49,120 --> 01:51:52,519
Speaker 2: So she's coaching Duke and they're about to be in

2500
01:51:52,520 --> 01:51:54,439
Speaker 2: the INNS Tournament. But she's also coaching the U.

2501
01:51:55,280 --> 01:51:56,479
Speaker 5: Yeah, I have to look into that.

2502
01:51:56,520 --> 01:51:59,479
Speaker 4: I guess that means someone else is coaching them right now,

2503
01:52:00,240 --> 01:52:02,640
Speaker 4: because you're not stopping the call of the season for this.

2504
01:52:02,800 --> 01:52:04,439
Speaker 3: I could have sworn. I saw her on the sidelines

2505
01:52:04,560 --> 01:52:05,479
Speaker 3: yesterday and I was watching.

2506
01:52:06,200 --> 01:52:08,880
Speaker 4: You know what, I'm saying, she's coaching Team USA. I'm

2507
01:52:08,880 --> 01:52:10,760
Speaker 4: saying someone else has to fill in for her when

2508
01:52:10,800 --> 01:52:12,160
Speaker 4: it comes to Kentucky.

2509
01:52:12,160 --> 01:52:13,200
Speaker 5: I mean in the Kentucky Duke.

2510
01:52:13,400 --> 01:52:14,960
Speaker 2: Wait, so she's not going to coach Duke in the

2511
01:52:15,040 --> 01:52:17,160
Speaker 2: n CATE Tournament. She's going to coach the United States

2512
01:52:17,200 --> 01:52:19,120
Speaker 2: in a meaningless exhibition game.

2513
01:52:19,160 --> 01:52:19,960
Speaker 5: I gotta look it up.

2514
01:52:20,040 --> 01:52:21,439
Speaker 1: That's what I'm looking up right now too.

2515
01:52:21,439 --> 01:52:23,639
Speaker 3: I didn't even need to pabo toy on this.

2516
01:52:25,200 --> 01:52:29,680
Speaker 1: Man. Uh yeah, well, we'll have to do some investigation

2517
01:52:30,240 --> 01:52:30,760
Speaker 1: during the break.

2518
01:52:30,840 --> 01:52:32,240
Speaker 2: Heare, I just bring it up and let you guys

2519
01:52:32,280 --> 01:52:36,280
Speaker 2: do the World Baseball Classic Italy got the bat?

2520
01:52:36,439 --> 01:52:38,920
Speaker 1: Mark? Where did Italy come up with eight runs against

2521
01:52:38,960 --> 01:52:41,760
Speaker 1: tam Usa and then nine against Mexico in back to

2522
01:52:41,800 --> 01:52:42,400
Speaker 1: back games.

2523
01:52:42,760 --> 01:52:44,479
Speaker 6: I don't know. I'm glad they got it though we

2524
01:52:44,479 --> 01:52:44,880
Speaker 6: needed it.

2525
01:52:44,960 --> 01:52:46,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, we have Canada tomorrow.

2526
01:52:46,560 --> 01:52:46,960
Speaker 1: Is that right?

2527
01:52:47,000 --> 01:52:49,439
Speaker 2: We can't be if we just beat them in hockey

2528
01:52:49,439 --> 01:52:52,920
Speaker 2: but lose to them in baseball, we cannot no, Mark, that's.

2529
01:52:52,840 --> 01:52:55,240
Speaker 6: Their get back. He took our sport, we'll take yours.

2530
01:52:55,280 --> 01:52:57,320
Speaker 2: All this debate about you know, Canada and where they

2531
01:52:57,360 --> 01:53:00,120
Speaker 2: stand within our political climate here that they might make

2532
01:53:00,240 --> 01:53:01,400
Speaker 2: us if they beat us tomorrow.

2533
01:53:01,680 --> 01:53:03,559
Speaker 6: You took cocky from us, a we're going to take

2534
01:53:03,600 --> 01:53:04,280
Speaker 6: baseball from me.

2535
01:53:04,360 --> 01:53:07,719
Speaker 1: Way we'll end up on a bat and blue Ken's

2536
01:53:07,720 --> 01:53:10,080
Speaker 1: gon announce that we're going to becoming an additional providence

2537
01:53:10,160 --> 01:53:10,519
Speaker 1: for them.

2538
01:53:10,680 --> 01:53:12,599
Speaker 3: Not your best work, Mark, but I still.

2539
01:53:12,400 --> 01:53:15,000
Speaker 1: Province, I should still laugh at it, Province. I appreciate

2540
01:53:15,960 --> 01:53:20,040
Speaker 1: checking myself in real time. Also, we've got.

2541
01:53:20,160 --> 01:53:22,120
Speaker 5: Center here for you. By the way, what is it

2542
01:53:22,600 --> 01:53:25,240
Speaker 5: so she will leave Puerto Rico.

2543
01:53:27,080 --> 01:53:30,400
Speaker 4: If Duke keeps advancing, she will leave Puerto Rico, come

2544
01:53:30,439 --> 01:53:33,920
Speaker 4: back or leave their you know, team USA obligations and

2545
01:53:34,000 --> 01:53:34,519
Speaker 4: coach Duke.

2546
01:53:34,680 --> 01:53:37,920
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, this this makes a little bit more sense. Yeah,

2547
01:53:38,040 --> 01:53:38,840
Speaker 3: thank you for that, Jane.

2548
01:53:38,840 --> 01:53:40,519
Speaker 4: One of the lead assistants on that team. By the way,

2549
01:53:40,520 --> 01:53:42,519
Speaker 4: is Stephanie White. Well she could could she be stepping in?

2550
01:53:42,600 --> 01:53:43,080
Speaker 4: We'll see.

2551
01:53:43,840 --> 01:53:46,559
Speaker 1: Uh, we got some Indy Car news, right, Connor Daily, Yeah.

2553
01:53:49,560 --> 01:53:52,559
Speaker 2: You know, you think about, honestly, the consistency of him

2554
01:53:52,560 --> 01:53:54,560
Speaker 2: in top tens, I don't know how many guys and

2555
01:53:54,840 --> 01:53:57,120
Speaker 2: you know eighty five hundred history certainly as of late

2556
01:53:57,520 --> 01:53:59,479
Speaker 2: have four straight top tens, let alone doing it with

2557
01:53:59,600 --> 01:54:02,519
Speaker 2: virtually every other team. Seemingly he's on a new team

2558
01:54:02,560 --> 01:54:05,240
Speaker 2: each year. So dry A Rainbold for him and Jack Harvey.

2559
01:54:05,720 --> 01:54:07,240
Speaker 2: So you get these one offs in the five hundred,

2560
01:54:07,280 --> 01:54:09,880
Speaker 2: Ryan Hunter, ray Alio castron nevis at Carpenter.

2561
01:54:10,400 --> 01:54:11,479
Speaker 3: So looking forward to that.

2562

2583
01:55:03,200 --> 01:55:06,120
Speaker 1: those conversations. And do you expect to hear anything out

2584
01:55:06,120 --> 01:55:08,520
Speaker 1: of the ordinary from Daniel Jones at that press conference today?

2585
01:55:08,840 --> 01:55:10,440
Speaker 5: Not at all, but I will be there.

2586
01:55:11,720 --> 01:55:12,440
Speaker 1: I was like a plan.

2587
01:55:12,880 --> 01:55:15,560
Speaker 6: What the announce is like, Yeah, I'm nowhere new healthy.

2588
01:55:15,640 --> 01:55:17,240
Speaker 6: You guys just paid me a whole bunch of money.

2589
01:55:17,240 --> 01:55:18,000
Speaker 6: I ain't gonna be here.

2590
01:55:18,000 --> 01:55:18,760
Speaker 5: You shut your mouth.

2591
01:55:18,800 --> 01:55:22,240
Speaker 6: Mark later to this that the ankle will still be drying.

2592
01:55:22,320 --> 01:55:24,280
Speaker 4: I want to write the same stuff I've been writing

2593
01:55:24,320 --> 01:55:26,640
Speaker 4: for the last two weeks, but I'm curious to hear

2594
01:55:26,680 --> 01:55:29,440
Speaker 4: from him about the recovery process with the Achilles. I

2595
01:55:29,480 --> 01:55:31,920
Speaker 4: doubt he'll give us a lot of details, but that

2596
01:55:32,080 --> 01:55:36,240
Speaker 4: is the biggest news I guess item newsworthy item when

2597
01:55:36,240 --> 01:55:38,960
Speaker 4: it comes to Daniel Jones, besides the actual contract itself.

2598
01:55:39,160 --> 01:55:40,800
Speaker 1: Kevin, when do you think the over under on the

2599
01:55:40,840 --> 01:55:45,280
Speaker 1: word progressing or progression or some word of that when

2600
01:55:45,320 --> 01:55:48,640
Speaker 1: he talks about his recovery from the Achilles and that's

2601
01:55:48,680 --> 01:55:51,240
Speaker 1: all we get, we're progressing.

2602
01:55:51,400 --> 01:55:53,440
Speaker 2: Well, I think I actually I heard him on Macfie

2603
01:55:53,480 --> 01:55:55,120
Speaker 2: yesterday said he thinks he'll be ready for week one,

2604
01:55:55,320 --> 01:55:58,800
Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean that's obviously something. You know, some

2605
01:55:58,840 --> 01:56:01,080
Speaker 2: guys six months out from such a deadline wouldn't even

2606
01:56:01,080 --> 01:56:04,040
Speaker 2: say that. So yeah, and that's kind of been the

2607
01:56:04,040 --> 01:56:05,600
Speaker 2: expectation I think all along here.

2608
01:56:06,000 --> 01:56:08,640
Speaker 4: But I am curious, though, like details wise, you know

2609
01:56:08,760 --> 01:56:10,720
Speaker 4: what does that mean being ready about week one? I

2610
01:56:10,720 --> 01:56:13,480
Speaker 4: think you talked about it earlier, Kevin, like you gotta throw,

2611
01:56:13,640 --> 01:56:15,480
Speaker 4: you gotta get out there with your team before the

2612
01:56:15,480 --> 01:56:18,720
Speaker 4: first game of the season. So when are you trying

2613
01:56:18,720 --> 01:56:21,040
Speaker 4: to get some on field action. I doubt that he

2614
01:56:21,040 --> 01:56:24,800
Speaker 4: will be like a full blown go during training camp,

2615
01:56:24,840 --> 01:56:27,760
Speaker 4: all of training camp. But what does that look like?

2616
01:56:27,840 --> 01:56:29,240
Speaker 4: Do they have kind of an idea?

2617
01:56:29,640 --> 01:56:31,240
Speaker 6: You also don't want him to be a statue out

2618
01:56:31,240 --> 01:56:33,520
Speaker 6: there either. You'd think his legs hopefully will get some

2619
01:56:33,600 --> 01:56:34,320
Speaker 6: run at some point.

2620
01:56:34,480 --> 01:56:36,920
Speaker 2: Right, and again, I've said it now a million times

2621
01:56:36,920 --> 01:56:40,000
Speaker 2: already today. To me, it's not when he's cleared, it's

2622
01:56:40,000 --> 01:56:42,720
Speaker 2: when is he himself? And so that to me will

2623
01:56:42,760 --> 01:56:43,520
Speaker 2: be the biggest one.

2624
01:56:43,640 --> 01:56:45,839
Speaker 1: All right, Mark Dykton, I know you're a very curious

2625
01:56:45,840 --> 01:56:49,920
Speaker 1: young man. He's got questions. How about a game? They

2626
01:56:50,040 --> 01:56:52,560
Speaker 1: have got answers. I'm more of a you know, a

2627
01:56:52,840 --> 01:56:54,480
Speaker 1: corn hoole man myself.

2628
01:56:54,440 --> 01:56:58,320
Speaker 8: Sports music, movies, what high fashion?

2629
01:56:58,480 --> 01:57:00,760
Speaker 5: That handsl so hot right now and.

2630
01:57:01,000 --> 01:57:02,120
Speaker 1: Everything in between.

2631
01:57:02,440 --> 01:57:05,520
Speaker 8: You ever seen a foot with four toes each time

2632
01:57:05,560 --> 01:57:08,040
Speaker 8: To get a glimpse into the mind of Mark.

2633
01:57:07,880 --> 01:57:10,200
Speaker 6: Dyke Din, stop that you scaring me?

2634
01:57:10,360 --> 01:57:14,000
Speaker 3: Each time for I gotta know, okay you do punk I.

2635
01:57:13,960 --> 01:57:16,520
Speaker 5: Wrote a good clean fight. Let's get it all.

2636
01:57:19,000 --> 01:57:21,360
Speaker 6: All right, boys, we're on the Colts talk. Let's stay

2637
01:57:21,400 --> 01:57:24,480
Speaker 6: on the Colts talk. What would you grade the Colts

2638
01:57:24,520 --> 01:57:27,640
Speaker 6: current free agency and offseason to this point? Obviously brought

2639
01:57:27,720 --> 01:57:30,800
Speaker 6: back Al Pearson, Daniel Jones, the big money contracts traded off,

2640
01:57:30,840 --> 01:57:34,160
Speaker 6: Michael Pittman Junior, and Zire Franklin lost the cross. Your

2641
01:57:34,200 --> 01:57:38,160
Speaker 6: grade so far for the Colts in twenty twenty six, James, I.

2642
01:57:38,120 --> 01:57:41,400
Speaker 2: Know you said see earlier, I'll go, just to not

2643
01:57:41,640 --> 01:57:44,000
Speaker 2: be boring, I'll say CEE minus.

2644
01:57:45,720 --> 01:57:46,880
Speaker 5: What a teacher you are.

2645
01:57:47,240 --> 01:57:49,280
Speaker 2: I think if you look at where defensive end is

2646
01:57:49,320 --> 01:57:53,600
Speaker 2: in particular, that group of available guys has really dried up.

2647
01:57:53,800 --> 01:57:55,120
Speaker 3: And I think that was your biggest need.

2648
01:57:55,600 --> 01:57:59,800
Speaker 2: So that's where, yes, getting Jones done, getting Pierced done,

2649
01:58:00,200 --> 01:58:02,760
Speaker 2: that was necessary. Moving on from some of these guys

2650
01:58:02,800 --> 01:58:04,800
Speaker 2: that you have I think is also necessary.

2651
01:58:04,880 --> 01:58:06,200
Speaker 3: But again, where have you gotten better?

2652
01:58:07,680 --> 01:58:09,400
Speaker 2: And when I asked that question, I don't think it's

2653
01:58:09,440 --> 01:58:11,000
Speaker 2: met with great answers.

2654
01:58:11,080 --> 01:58:13,000
Speaker 4: Can you round up? Do you ever get the student

2655
01:58:13,040 --> 01:58:14,400
Speaker 4: that's like, hey, can you round up?

2656
01:58:14,720 --> 01:58:15,080
Speaker 3: Yeah?

2657
01:58:15,120 --> 01:58:17,800
Speaker 2: But my C minus is like you showing up the

2658
01:58:17,840 --> 01:58:20,000
Speaker 2: class and you're showing up late and you don't even

2659
01:58:20,000 --> 01:58:20,840
Speaker 2: know when the test stars.

2660
01:58:20,880 --> 01:58:23,600
Speaker 3: So I don't want to round up for you respect.

2661
01:58:24,840 --> 01:58:25,839
Speaker 3: There you go, James.

2662
01:58:26,040 --> 01:58:27,920
Speaker 4: I never acted teacher to round me up. Ever, I

2663
01:58:27,920 --> 01:58:30,560
Speaker 4: didn't care get the grade, get through the class.

2664
01:58:30,600 --> 01:58:32,880
Speaker 3: Hey, maybe that's why you didn't get the grade rounded up.

2665
01:58:32,960 --> 01:58:35,840
Speaker 1: James and I were both similar students. Surviving advance is

2666
01:58:35,880 --> 01:58:36,480
Speaker 1: what we had to do.

2667
01:58:36,680 --> 01:58:37,960
Speaker 4: I was a great student. I was top ten of

2668
01:58:38,000 --> 01:58:40,960
Speaker 4: my fine student in respect that was umb. I was

2669
01:58:41,000 --> 01:58:43,600
Speaker 4: number five my high school class. Baby, I'm a legend.

2670
01:58:44,720 --> 01:58:47,360
Speaker 3: Went to myelin for high school. There about twenty eight kids.

2671
01:58:47,400 --> 01:58:49,320
Speaker 5: Hey, it don't matter top five and stop five?

2672
01:58:49,440 --> 01:58:51,560
Speaker 6: So are you a tough grader? Are you? Are you

2673
01:58:51,680 --> 01:58:53,080
Speaker 6: giving him a little leeway?

2674
01:58:53,480 --> 01:58:57,720
Speaker 1: No? Here's what I know so far. They had to

2675
01:58:57,720 --> 01:59:01,320
Speaker 1: get Alec Pierce back. I had to That's like signing

2676
01:59:01,320 --> 01:59:03,200
Speaker 1: your name on the paper for the team this year, right,

2677
01:59:03,240 --> 01:59:06,520
Speaker 1: they had to do that. Daniel Jones, I felt like

2678
01:59:06,680 --> 01:59:09,920
Speaker 1: was gonna get done all along, because really it just

2679
01:59:09,920 --> 01:59:11,760
Speaker 1: felt like where else was he going to go at

2680
01:59:11,760 --> 01:59:13,760
Speaker 1: this point in time, coming off of major injury and

2681
01:59:14,000 --> 01:59:17,520
Speaker 1: his injury history. They don't have Michael Pittman back right now,

2682
01:59:17,560 --> 01:59:21,200
Speaker 1: so they haven't replaced anybody alongside Alec Pierce, and to

2683
01:59:21,280 --> 01:59:26,040
Speaker 1: Kevin's point, very law with the defensive additions they've made

2684
01:59:26,080 --> 01:59:28,200
Speaker 1: so far, and they lost Nick Cross, I'm going to

2685
01:59:28,240 --> 01:59:31,960
Speaker 1: give him a D plus. I'm not thrilled so far.

2686
01:59:32,760 --> 01:59:34,400
Speaker 6: I think you're paying the guys that you needed to

2687
01:59:34,400 --> 01:59:37,320
Speaker 6: bring back more money, and you've lost guys in the process,

2688
01:59:37,360 --> 01:59:39,840
Speaker 6: and the guys you have replaced them with are just

2689
01:59:41,040 --> 01:59:42,160
Speaker 6: Larry David shoulder shrug.

2690
01:59:42,760 --> 01:59:45,240
Speaker 1: Okay, it doesn't feel like they've gotten better anywhere.

2691
01:59:45,440 --> 01:59:47,800
Speaker 6: They may have gotten worse actually, but they're paying more money.

2692
01:59:47,920 --> 01:59:50,880
Speaker 5: Go and see, as in wait and see all right.

2693
01:59:51,000 --> 01:59:55,480
Speaker 6: The Max Crosby situation is obviously very fluid. The team

2694
01:59:55,520 --> 01:59:57,840
Speaker 6: Max crossing he places for in twenty twenty six is

2695
01:59:57,960 --> 02:00:00,840
Speaker 6: who staying with the Raiders or what they eventually deal

2696
02:00:00,920 --> 02:00:02,240
Speaker 6: him somewhere else.

2697
02:00:02,760 --> 02:00:05,800
Speaker 4: It's the Raiders because I think that he's damaged goods

2698
02:00:05,840 --> 02:00:07,760
Speaker 4: now and teams do not want to trade for him.

2699
02:00:08,040 --> 02:00:10,680
Speaker 4: But also he just seems like a Raider for life.

2700
02:00:11,280 --> 02:00:13,360
Speaker 4: You know, he's got a house out there, very nice house,

2701
02:00:13,400 --> 02:00:15,640
Speaker 4: by the way, so I'd expect him to play for

2702
02:00:15,680 --> 02:00:18,520
Speaker 4: the Raiders and perhaps he can help get the ball

2703
02:00:18,560 --> 02:00:23,040
Speaker 4: back to fan. Now, Mendoza, it's the Raiders. Like everything

2704
02:00:23,040 --> 02:00:26,800
Speaker 4: about this screams the Raiders. They're kind of that that tough.

2705
02:00:27,000 --> 02:00:31,040
Speaker 1: Scrappy alley cat that is not all that good looking anymore,

2706
02:00:31,080 --> 02:00:33,280
Speaker 1: but they just kind of keep showing up all the time.

2707
02:00:33,960 --> 02:00:39,000
Speaker 1: And he is a perfect Raider in every aspect of

2708
02:00:39,040 --> 02:00:41,880
Speaker 1: being a Raider. They're trying to rebuild themselves, They're trying

2709
02:00:41,920 --> 02:00:44,320
Speaker 1: to start all over from scratch. They got a tough division.

2710
02:00:45,720 --> 02:00:48,080
Speaker 1: He helps them more than him being gone hurts them,

2711
02:00:48,160 --> 02:00:50,240
Speaker 1: and they get to keep their two first round picks.

2712
02:00:50,280 --> 02:00:52,680
Speaker 1: So it just feels like everything about that was very

2713
02:00:52,800 --> 02:00:56,040
Speaker 1: Raider re if you want to make that a word. Kevin, Yeah, I.

2714
02:00:56,000 --> 02:00:58,680
Speaker 2: Think it's interesting what Mendoz is walking into, you know,

2715
02:00:58,720 --> 02:01:03,160
Speaker 2: with Tyler Linbaum and Rock Bauers and Ashton gent an

2716
02:01:03,160 --> 02:01:04,560
Speaker 2: offensive minded head coach.

2717
02:01:05,200 --> 02:01:07,200
Speaker 3: I get it's the Raiders this, Jeff points out.

2718
02:01:07,200 --> 02:01:08,520
Speaker 2: I do you think it's one of the tougher, if

2719
02:01:08,560 --> 02:01:11,560
Speaker 2: not the toughest divisions in all football? Really, but still

2720
02:01:11,600 --> 02:01:15,080
Speaker 2: it seems like it's not the worst scenario, which, honestly,

2721
02:01:15,160 --> 02:01:18,520
Speaker 2: that debate happens quite often with these first overall picks here.

2722
02:01:18,560 --> 02:01:21,839
Speaker 2: But yeah, the Crosby thing, it, I mean, it's amazing.

2723
02:01:21,880 --> 02:01:24,240
Speaker 2: I mean, go back to the other night that domino.

2724
02:01:25,480 --> 02:01:28,120
Speaker 2: If that domino does not happened, Trey Henderson as a cult,

2725
02:01:28,560 --> 02:01:31,480
Speaker 2: I do think it's that crazy to say, which maybe

2726
02:01:31,480 --> 02:01:33,360
Speaker 2: totally changes what you just asked us in the first

2727
02:01:33,440 --> 02:01:34,840
Speaker 2: question mark about how.

2728
02:01:34,720 --> 02:01:36,640
Speaker 3: People would you know grade the Colts offseason?

2729
02:01:37,040 --> 02:01:39,280
Speaker 6: All right, well, you believe in the sanctity of the

2730
02:01:39,400 --> 02:01:42,440
Speaker 6: NBA Draft lottery If the Pacers do not keep their

2731
02:01:42,480 --> 02:01:44,680
Speaker 6: first round pick. Do you think the little chirping back

2732
02:01:44,680 --> 02:01:47,080
Speaker 6: and forth the league office might have hampered that if

2733
02:01:47,080 --> 02:01:49,240
Speaker 6: they do not get their first round pick after all

2734
02:01:49,240 --> 02:01:52,400
Speaker 6: of this, will you believe in the sanctity of the

2735
02:01:52,480 --> 02:01:54,160
Speaker 6: NBA lottery or I feel like that's a get.

2736
02:01:53,960 --> 02:01:56,640
Speaker 2: Back missioner silver in the lab putting some sand in

2737
02:01:56,680 --> 02:01:58,160
Speaker 2: the Pacers lottery ball.

2738
02:01:58,320 --> 02:02:00,640
Speaker 3: No, I believe that, Mark, it's your bottom.

2739
02:02:00,760 --> 02:02:01,120
Speaker 6: It's a no.

2740
02:02:01,360 --> 02:02:04,680
Speaker 4: It's a no, especially because if the Wizards, who'll give

2741
02:02:04,720 --> 02:02:06,400
Speaker 4: up eighty three points to them BAM, might a bio

2742
02:02:06,520 --> 02:02:10,320
Speaker 4: somehow leapfrog the Pacers in the standings for the ping

2743
02:02:10,360 --> 02:02:11,760
Speaker 4: pong ball to the top four pick.

2744
02:02:12,240 --> 02:02:13,320
Speaker 5: Oh my god, Now, Craig.

2745
02:02:13,400 --> 02:02:15,440
Speaker 2: Mean, if I'm wrong, I believe in each of the

2746
02:02:15,520 --> 02:02:21,080
Speaker 2: last three drafts, the team with the worst record.

2747
02:02:20,960 --> 02:02:22,080
Speaker 3: Became the fifth pick.

2748
02:02:22,520 --> 02:02:24,720
Speaker 5: Yes, this happened to Detroit couple years ago.

2749
02:02:24,840 --> 02:02:27,120
Speaker 3: So how do you look at that if you're the Pacers?

2750
02:02:27,440 --> 02:02:27,960
Speaker 3: Oh bleep?

2751
02:02:28,240 --> 02:02:31,320
Speaker 4: Or was it time for the basketball guys in am

2752
02:02:31,320 --> 02:02:33,800
Speaker 4: silver or the ping pong ball where you're supposed to be.

2753
02:02:33,880 --> 02:02:35,760
Speaker 2: Which again, if you look at the odds, it's only

2754
02:02:35,800 --> 02:02:38,760
Speaker 2: a fifty what two percent? I think it is chance

2755
02:02:39,040 --> 02:02:41,440
Speaker 2: with the worst record in league you maintain your top

2756
02:02:41,440 --> 02:02:41,880
Speaker 2: four pick.

2757
02:02:42,480 --> 02:02:45,040
Speaker 3: That's where these odds are really bet on this some

2758
02:02:45,080 --> 02:02:45,839
Speaker 3: of you can't bet.

2759
02:02:45,640 --> 02:02:48,480
Speaker 1: On Oh yeah, you can bet on anything. By the way,

2760
02:02:48,480 --> 02:02:51,520
Speaker 1: it's time for the twenty twenty six NBA Draft Lottery simulator,

2761
02:02:51,680 --> 02:02:54,400
Speaker 1: brought to you by tankathon dot com. James, are you ready?

2762
02:02:54,440 --> 02:02:56,800
Speaker 1: Yesterday your all time favorite team was the number one pick,

2763
02:02:57,560 --> 02:02:59,000
Speaker 1: Washington Wizards. Right, sure?

2764
02:02:59,240 --> 02:02:59,920
Speaker 5: The answer?

2765
02:03:00,400 --> 02:03:02,640
Speaker 1: Okay, well it has to do with this here, any

2766
02:03:02,680 --> 02:03:05,480
Speaker 1: of number one. If that happens, then yes, I love

2767
02:03:05,520 --> 02:03:08,080
Speaker 1: the sanctity of it. But they've got to do something

2768
02:03:08,120 --> 02:03:10,120
Speaker 1: to fix this because the worst teams, I know, they're

2769
02:03:10,120 --> 02:03:12,480
Speaker 1: trying to prevent people from taking but you can't have

2770
02:03:12,560 --> 02:03:16,120
Speaker 1: the worst teams forever being outside the top four or five,

2771
02:03:16,120 --> 02:03:17,880
Speaker 1: with a chance to have somebody that can really turn

2772
02:03:17,920 --> 02:03:19,120
Speaker 1: your team around.

2773
02:03:19,960 --> 02:03:21,240
Speaker 5: We'll see all right.

2774
02:03:21,320 --> 02:03:24,200
Speaker 6: Last, but not least, what are we watching. I haven't

2775
02:03:24,200 --> 02:03:26,160

02:03:29,720 --> 02:03:33,360
Speaker 6: Kevin maybe sitting Max in front of television. It looks excellent.

2778
02:03:33,640 --> 02:03:35,840
Speaker 3: I have thought long and hard about that, Mark.

2779
02:03:35,960 --> 02:03:38,000
Speaker 2: I think we're doing a little Lego World, by the way,

2780
02:03:38,040 --> 02:03:39,960
Speaker 2: coming up at the fairgrounds this weekend.

2781
02:03:40,000 --> 02:03:40,520
Speaker 6: Look at that.

2782
02:03:40,720 --> 02:03:43,880
Speaker 2: But outside of that, Max Bowen, if you behave, if

2783
02:03:43,880 --> 02:03:47,240
Speaker 2: you gosh, you're a good boy, you get some Dinosaurs.

02:03:48,280 --> 02:03:48,960
Speaker 1: I like that.

2785
02:03:49,840 --> 02:03:51,680
Speaker 5: I've been rewatching Game of Thrones.

2786
02:03:51,920 --> 02:03:54,440
Speaker 4: That's been the watch and boy, I forgot how great

2787
02:03:54,480 --> 02:03:57,280
Speaker 4: this show was, especially in the earlier season. So shout

2788
02:03:57,280 --> 02:04:00,040
Speaker 4: out to Joffey and Sarsi for being some of the

2789
02:04:00,040 --> 02:04:02,760
Speaker 4: most villainous people in probably TV history.

2790
02:04:03,400 --> 02:04:05,000
Speaker 6: I don't think I've ever been more excited for a

2791
02:04:05,080 --> 02:04:07,280
Speaker 6: child to die than Jeoffrey and Game of Thrones. I

2792
02:04:07,320 --> 02:04:08,520
Speaker 6: was like, get that kid out of here.

2793
02:04:08,520 --> 02:04:09,880
Speaker 5: But I love me a great villain.

2794
02:04:10,080 --> 02:04:10,280
Speaker 2: Golf.

2795
02:04:10,320 --> 02:04:11,440
Speaker 5: We don't have a good games.

2796
02:04:11,480 --> 02:04:14,080
Speaker 3: Talking about the Girl Scouts earlier this week, Mark, I.

2797
02:04:14,000 --> 02:04:15,800
Speaker 4: Hey, like I said, I you know, I told my

2798
02:04:15,880 --> 02:04:17,840
Speaker 4: questions about the Girl Scouts. I ain't seen y'all out

2799
02:04:17,840 --> 02:04:20,360
Speaker 4: here doing some stuff, so I got questions.

2800
02:04:20,680 --> 02:04:22,000
Speaker 5: Maybe that's one thing I got to know.

2801
02:04:22,120 --> 02:04:23,040
Speaker 1: Mark, there you go.

2802
02:04:23,440 --> 02:04:26,280
Speaker 5: Where are your Scouts? What are they doing? All these trees?

2803
02:04:26,280 --> 02:04:28,520
Speaker 6: They're playing James's edition of Viga.

2804
02:04:28,680 --> 02:04:29,400
Speaker 3: Know where are you at?

2805
02:04:29,560 --> 02:04:30,240
Speaker 1: That's all it is.

2806
02:04:30,280 --> 02:04:31,640
Speaker 3: He's calling Pablo Torre for that.

2807
02:04:33,600 --> 02:04:36,320
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Soul Power. I'm about two episodes in

2808
02:04:36,400 --> 02:04:39,839
Speaker 1: and again my child. Probably one of the biggest sparks

2809
02:04:39,840 --> 02:04:42,320
Speaker 1: of me becoming a sports fan my dad taking my

2810
02:04:42,360 --> 02:04:45,160
Speaker 1: brother and I down to the old Auditorium Marina in

2811
02:04:45,280 --> 02:04:48,560
Speaker 1: downtown Denver, which was just a nothing burger. Maybe forty

2812
02:04:48,560 --> 02:04:50,840
Speaker 1: five hundred five thousand people fit into it. It was

2813
02:04:50,840 --> 02:04:52,480
Speaker 1: one of those things where the only lights were over

2814
02:04:52,520 --> 02:04:55,040
Speaker 1: the court. Everything else was like dark out on the edges.

2815
02:04:55,320 --> 02:04:57,360
Speaker 1: But I got to see some of the great ABA

2816
02:04:57,520 --> 02:05:00,160
Speaker 1: players of the time play there, and I got to

2817
02:05:00,240 --> 02:05:03,240
Speaker 1: watch fun guys come in and out like doctor j

2818
02:05:03,520 --> 02:05:07,800
Speaker 1: or George mcguinnis, or just artist Gilmore. In addition to

2819
02:05:07,840 --> 02:05:10,000
Speaker 1: all the team, the guys that were playing for at

2820
02:05:10,000 --> 02:05:12,480
Speaker 1: that time, the Denver Rockets who became the Denver Nuggets.

2821
02:05:12,480 --> 02:05:15,280
Speaker 1: So for me, it takes me right back to early

2822
02:05:15,440 --> 02:05:19,320
Speaker 1: childhood and what really was the flame that sparked, you know,

2823
02:05:19,360 --> 02:05:21,240
Speaker 1: the spark that really got the flame going for my

2824
02:05:21,760 --> 02:05:24,360
Speaker 1: love of sports. I think my dad would probably take

2825
02:05:24,400 --> 02:05:26,200
Speaker 1: us down to six or seven of those games a year,

2826
02:05:26,240 --> 02:05:29,640
Speaker 1: and I just I remember one of the coolest things

2827
02:05:29,680 --> 02:05:32,720
Speaker 1: being a kid, you know, you talk about dinosaurs. I

2828
02:05:32,840 --> 02:05:35,240
Speaker 1: was probably six or seven, and I got to go

2829
02:05:35,320 --> 02:05:38,200
Speaker 1: home with one of those red, white and blue basketballs

2830
02:05:38,200 --> 02:05:40,480
Speaker 1: that they were given out on a promotion night. That

2831
02:05:40,680 --> 02:05:43,360
Speaker 1: was cool. So I'm having a great time watching Soul

2832
02:05:43,400 --> 02:05:44,040
Speaker 1: Power right now.

2833
02:05:44,240 --> 02:05:45,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've actually caught a couple of episodes.

2834
02:05:45,840 --> 02:05:48,520
Speaker 2: Great watch, and I'm more from a I'm trying to learn,

2835
02:05:48,600 --> 02:05:50,720
Speaker 2: you know, you're more probably in the reminiscing mold and

2836
02:05:50,840 --> 02:05:52,000
Speaker 2: I've really enjoyed it.

2837
02:05:56,120 --> 02:05:58,840
Speaker 6: Hey, El's Mark, No, sorry, plumber was calling.

2838
02:05:58,960 --> 02:06:01,200
Speaker 3: No, that's it. Uh good.

2839
02:06:01,240 --> 02:06:03,760
Speaker 1: I have one question for you, Chief engineer. Just spent

2840
02:06:03,800 --> 02:06:05,480
Speaker 1: about five minutes in the studio. Is that good news?

2841
02:06:05,520 --> 02:06:06,480
Speaker 1: Are bad news over there?

2842
02:06:06,720 --> 02:06:07,480
Speaker 6: Think good news?

2843
02:06:07,520 --> 02:06:07,800
Speaker 1: Okay?

2844
02:06:07,920 --> 02:06:10,520

Speaker 1: But he was saying.

2848

Speaker 6: Everything's firing and all cylinders, the synapses are synapsing, and

2849
02:06:16,440 --> 02:06:17,040

2863
02:07:00,440 --> 02:07:04,000
Speaker 1: a winner over USC. We know Northwestern got pasted Indiana

2864
02:07:04,120 --> 02:07:09,320
Speaker 1: last night, and Rutgers beat Minnesota. So today Iowa takes

2865
02:07:09,360 --> 02:07:12,800
Speaker 1: on Ohio State, Washington against Wisconsin. Those are the early

2866
02:07:12,920 --> 02:07:15,920
Speaker 1: games today, and then tonight Northwestern Purdue at six thirty.

2867
02:07:16,400 --> 02:07:20,680
Speaker 1: Rutgers in Ucla is the nightcap. There any other teams

2868
02:07:20,760 --> 02:07:22,640
Speaker 1: right now before we get to the big big guns

2869
02:07:22,680 --> 02:07:25,040
Speaker 1: in the next day or two that outside of the

2870
02:07:25,040 --> 02:07:27,240
Speaker 1: Purdue game, any of these games interest you at all? Kevin?

2871
02:07:27,240 --> 02:07:29,200
Speaker 2: That month, First off, I cannot believe Produce is favored

2872
02:07:29,240 --> 02:07:30,360
Speaker 2: by twelve and a half.

2873
02:07:30,440 --> 02:07:32,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna mess. It just seems like.

2874
02:07:32,360 --> 02:07:36,600
Speaker 2: A lot there for Purdue. I think they win, to

2875
02:07:36,640 --> 02:07:38,440
Speaker 2: be clear, but I just think that's a lot. And

2876
02:07:38,480 --> 02:07:40,240
Speaker 2: one thing about the Big Ten Tournament, I do think

2877
02:07:40,240 --> 02:07:42,160
Speaker 2: it's very top heavy.

2878
02:07:42,240 --> 02:07:43,360
Speaker 1: You know, when you look.

2879
02:07:43,240 --> 02:07:43,879
Speaker 3: At the bracket.

2880
02:07:44,240 --> 02:07:46,080
Speaker 2: Top of the bracket I believe is Michigan, Illinois, and

2881
02:07:46,120 --> 02:07:47,920
Speaker 2: I think Wisconsin. I want to say, all three of

2882
02:07:47,920 --> 02:07:50,400
Speaker 2: those teams are in the top So, you know, can

2883
02:07:50,400 --> 02:07:51,320
Speaker 2: Purdue good on a run?

2884
02:07:51,600 --> 02:07:51,760
Speaker 7: You know?

2885
02:07:51,840 --> 02:07:52,560
Speaker 3: I think there are some.

2886
02:07:52,560 --> 02:07:57,440
Speaker 2: Makings of potentially that being a possibility, But obviously they

2887
02:07:57,440 --> 02:07:58,760
Speaker 2: got a lot of work to do to get all

2888
02:07:58,800 --> 02:08:00,000
Speaker 2: the way to Sunday.

2889
02:08:00,960 --> 02:08:04,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we'll see. Yeah, the four teams that are

2890
02:08:04,200 --> 02:08:11,280
Speaker 1: awaiting their first game on Friday, in order of their seeds, Kevin, Yeah, Michigan, Illinois,

2891
02:08:11,280 --> 02:08:16,440

2892
02:08:16,440 --> 02:08:18,400
Speaker 1: going on. Illinois finally gets to play tomorrow night. You

2893
02:08:18,440 --> 02:08:19,760
