It feels weird to not have basketball coming 39 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 4: on I guess later today at a random time. But 40 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 4: was a great first weekend for the tournament in my opinion. 41 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,639 Speaker 5: Hey, whoaa whoa James? We got Jelani Cambridge versus hands 42 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 5: come on. 43 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,959 Speaker 1: Come on four o'clock today, Enough go, Caleb Zuber, come 44 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: on now, hand it do all go out standing on Friday. 45 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 1: Thank you for that. 46 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,679 Speaker 4: To be fair, Hey, a lot of these tournaments don't 47 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:44,359 Speaker 4: get good on the women's side until you get down 48 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 4: to maybe the final four. 49 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: Very chalky. We have a lot of chalk on the 50 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: men's side, but we certainly had some great, great moments yesterday. 51 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: I guess you call Iowa Cinderella. I'm already praying for 52 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: the beer sales in Houston with Iowa and Nebraska as 53 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: Sweet sixteen matchup coming up. 54 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 4: But who's gonna protect the crops? 55 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, man, that is a great, great call. 56 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: There so much to get to here on this Monday morning. 57 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:09,959 Speaker 1: Mike de Coursio join us. Coming up at eight thirty 58 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: the voice of the Purdue boiler Makers, Rob Blackman, as again, 59 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: Perdue advances yesterday over Miami. I heard this stat on 60 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: the drive in, didn't realize it. It's the first time 61 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: Perdue won an NCAA tournament game when trailing at halftime 62 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: since twenty ten. So you got to go back quite 63 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 1: a ways for Perdue to be down, albeit down just 64 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: a couple thanks to CJ. Cox and that flurry. We'll 65 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: wait an update on the knee for him, But James, 66 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: I think the accomplishment as a whole speaks for itself. 67 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 1: When you really start to look at how many teams 68 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: have made a Sweet sixteen in the last five to 69 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: ten years. That's now three in a row for Purdue 70 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 1: at seven out of ten. More than that you advanced 71 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: yesterday with brain Smith having his one of his worst 72 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: games I've seen him play, and that, to me, I 73 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: think is critical. Obviously, it's not something that can last 74 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: if you're gonna get to nd or certainly cut down 75 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: the nets. But surviving advance is the name of the 76 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: game of the tournament, and a lot a lot of 77 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: guys I. E. Fletcher Lawyer, I E. Trey Coffman, ren 78 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: Ie CJ. Cox were outstanding for Purdue yesterday. Yeah. 79 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 4: I thought CJ. Cox gave my a big shot in 80 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 4: the arm there late in the first half because they 81 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 4: were down and kind of staggering a little bit, and 82 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 4: he hit some tough, tough shots, the one that beat 83 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 4: the shot clock. I was thinking to myself, boy, you 84 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 4: must be. 85 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 1: Living right back to the left. 86 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 4: Must be living right to make that kind of shot 87 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 4: in that moment. And then obviously he goes down in 88 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 4: the second half and we're just hoping that it isn't 89 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,919 Speaker 4: something serious, and it sounds like it may not be 90 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 4: he was saying after the game he could have gone 91 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 4: back into the game, but trusty, this teammates to get 92 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 4: it done and obviously be given the way the game 93 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 4: was unfolding, probably not worth the risk. But boy, that 94 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 4: was scary when he went down that It was a 95 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 4: little nervous there. 96 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I had an audible cuss. Rosie said, what did 97 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,559 Speaker 1: you say? And I tried to quickly move on because 98 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: I thought of frick frick. I don't want to put CJ. 99 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 1: Cox as on this level, although I'm probably the leader 100 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 1: of the c J. Cox fan club, but I thought 101 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 1: a hummel in the barn. I thought Isaac cost going 102 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: down in the tournament. That's what kind of crossed my mind. 103 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: I don't I don't think Purdue can win four more 104 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: games if CJ. Cox doesn't play the rest of the tournament. 105 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: Just kind of put it into that. I would agree 106 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: with you there sort of perspective. You look at some 107 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: of the guards in the top half of that West 108 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: region in Arizona and Arkansas, and what could be there 109 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: in the Elite eight. You need CJ. 110 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:27,159 Speaker 4: Cox. 111 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 1: But again, to your point, sounds like it's not maybe 112 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 1: certainly not the old three letter acronym that I think 113 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: so many people believed it was when he went down, 114 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,559 Speaker 1: But without him, I don't think they win that game. 115 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: To your point to what happened there at the end 116 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: of the first half, and shout out to Jakari Harris 117 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: because when Cox goes out there, very quickly after that, 118 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: Harris got an open three at the top of the 119 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,479 Speaker 1: key and bang that one in. I think it was 120 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 1: just kind of a calming moment almost for Purdue there 121 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,040 Speaker 1: and then the rest of the way, I just thought 122 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: they made enough and Lawyer was just the one phenomenal 123 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: out at the start of the game, you know, made 124 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: some critical shots and foul shots down the stretch there. 125 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: And James he's he's been produced most consistent player in 126 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: the last month and a half. 127 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I would argue that he's become a more 128 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 4: complete basketball player, at least offensively. And honestly, I'm saying 129 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 4: I'm arguing that no one's gonna argue against me if 130 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,840 Speaker 4: you saw his development throughout recent years. His ability to 131 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 4: turn the corner and put on the floor and go 132 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 4: score changes things a lot, I think for opposing defenses 133 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 4: because you spend so much time chasing him like he's 134 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 4: Steph Curry and then it's like, oh wait a second, 135 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 4: he can drive and finish over Biggs. When did that happen? 136 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 4: And so when he does that, that's when I think 137 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 4: you're seeing peak Purdue offense and you're able to withstand 138 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 4: the performance he saw off For Braden Smith, I thought 139 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 4: the jumper looked off and the decision making was also off. 140 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 4: I thought they really gave him a hard time that 141 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 4: Miami defense, and a lot of length was used on him. 142 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 4: And I don't expect Braydon to come out and have 143 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 4: what was it, eight turnovers again ever, but he definitely 144 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 4: has to be sharper. I think moving forward to get 145 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 4: to where they want to go. 146 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 1: A few of my favorite Sweet sixteen matchups. It'll be 147 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: by the way, purduing Texas. That is the first game 148 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,239 Speaker 1: on Thursday. So even though it's out West in San Jose, 149 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: Perdue in Texas will tip it seven to ten. Our 150 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: time at Cinderella Texas. I you know how I feel 151 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: about that. I have some thoughts from Cinderella. 152 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, Cinderella, as he was talking about him, you know, 153 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 5: that's the Cinderella team. 154 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: Sow much, not dead, not much? Does Cam Heidi get 155 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: to the transfer from Perdue to Texas if you would 156 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: have stayed at Purdue. We can certainly touch on that 157 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: as the week moves along, sevent to ten Thursday, that 158 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 1: is CBS Perdue in Texas, Duke Saint John's sign me 159 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: up for that from the Nation's Capital. Oh yeah, Illinois Houston, James, 160 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: you're fighting a lion. I that's the last game of 161 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: the Sweet sixteen. That'll be Friday night, and again Nebraska, Iowa. 162 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: The beer sales will be through the roof. And then 163 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 1: I can't wait for Arizona Arkansas. You know potentially that 164 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: could be Produce's opponent there in the Elite eight. Those 165 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: are some of the ones. 166 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 4: Just to clarify, I believe Illinois and Houston is Thursday night. 167 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: Oh, Thursday night, thank you sorry, the last game of 168 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: Thursday night is what I meant there. Thank you appreciate that. 169 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: So Purdue and Texas will be the first game of 170 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: Thursday night. Illinois Houston will be the last game there. 171 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: Approximate tip time just after ten o'clock. So again, really 172 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: looking forward to that. You got six Big Ten teams 173 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: still alive in this bracket, and for the eighth time 174 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: I could not believe this when they said this last 175 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: night after Iowa HiT's the game winner there. It's now 176 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 1: the eighth time in the last nine years the defending 177 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: champ hasn't made the Sweet sixteen. Geez. And like I 178 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: get there will be now more roster turnover probably, yeah, 179 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 1: but like we haven't had that for nine straight years. 180 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: You know, it was Yukon going back to back was 181 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: the last time we've had that there? How about that 182 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: finish there Iowa ooh man. 183 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 4: And honestly, they won in a fashion that I just 184 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 4: did not think they could win when it came to 185 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 4: crashing the glass, get next possessions and surviving because Starts 186 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 4: did not have a great game. He didn't shoot it 187 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 4: very well at all. 188 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,479 Speaker 1: She takes some wild shots. 189 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 4: I know, but it's almost like you live and die 190 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 4: with it because that's what you that's what got you there, 191 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 4: you know, and he's your guy. So after the end 192 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 4: of the game that when they were interviewing him, I'm like, man, 193 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 4: he got this interview because of his name, not because 194 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 4: of his game yesterday. But nevertheless, they survive in advance 195 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 4: and knock off Florida, And I thought that the last 196 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 4: possession for Florida. Lee just took too long to shoot 197 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 4: the ball. I'm like, you can't. You don't have enough 198 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 4: time to dribble all the way down and try to 199 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 4: pass it. Brother, be selfish, this is your one shining moment. 200 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 4: Just shoot the floater and see if it going off 201 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 4: the glass or something. 202 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 5: I thought it was kind of fitting James because one 203 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:50,719 Speaker 5: of the things with Florida all year, you know, they 204 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 5: lost those guards like Walter Clayton up from last year 205 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 5: and then Martin as well. Like it's kind of encapsulation 206 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 5: of their season that their guard played. It was kind 207 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 5: of not up to snuff all year, and it was 208 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 5: Lee who kind of didn't make a great play at 209 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 5: the end there. But like you said, Florida's strength is 210 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:13,959 Speaker 5: rebounding and Iowa was able to keep them off the glass, 211 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 5: which is just crazy. How can you see that coming? 212 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 5: That's that's why this tournament is so special. 213 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: Well, and you got teach tape now around the state 214 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: of Indiana for how not to defend a full court 215 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:29,679 Speaker 1: moment there and Florida not stopping. Then it starts from 216 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 1: getting downhill right away. First for the steel whatever that 217 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: was was weird, right, you know, just again going on 218 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: in the front in that situation, you all of a 219 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 1: sudden let him get ahead of steam and Alvaro volgaross 220 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: am I saying that right ful garis bulgaris what a 221 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 1: shot and what a moment there, I mean him and 222 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 1: aj Ross postgame. I really enjoyed that. You know, March 223 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,719 Speaker 1: is for dreamers, and it sounds like his story is 224 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 1: much more from a dreaming outside of just March madness. 225 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 4: But that was a really really about father and his 226 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 4: mom being there. 227 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, went in the stands to see mom and just 228 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: a yeah, really special. Certainly a one shining moment memory there. 229 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: As the Iowah Hawk guys are onto the sweet sixteen, 230 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,439 Speaker 1: plenty plenty to get to, and we will also talk 231 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: a little high school action James Newcastle for you, was 232 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:23,079 Speaker 1: it some Luke Erdle round whatever that is for you 233 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: watching him and Mount Vernon getting it done. 234 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 4: Yes, I was out there and Luke Erdle is a 235 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 4: very good basketball player. 236 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:35,439 Speaker 1: Analysis when he was off the floor, they were icy 237 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: when he was on the floor. 238 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 4: We can definitely talk about this because I'm sure there's 239 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,199 Speaker 4: some New Albany fans who are waiting for me to 240 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 4: tell the truth. And I will this morning here on 241 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 4: the show. 242 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,839 Speaker 1: You thought the elbow was a fifth fell Oh? 243 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 4: Absolutely, I mean I've watched it. He all wanted to 244 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 4: get right in the face, and he stopped. Luke Ertle 245 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 4: stopped because he knew he crushed him in the nose. 246 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 4: And they don't say anything and he just keeps playing. 247 00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 4: They probably lose that game. They were up I want 248 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,599 Speaker 4: to say four, when he's sixty six sixty two. It 249 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 4: should have been fouled out, honestly, but they didn't call it. 250 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 4: He stays in the game. Call it a superstar. Call 251 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 4: all you want to. They survive in advance, but boy, 252 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 4: they are not. I won't be too rude. They cannot dribble. 253 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 4: I was gonna say they were nothing without Luke Eardle. No, 254 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 4: they can shoot the ball. Nobody can dribble on his 255 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:19,839 Speaker 4: team besides him, like through a press or through any 256 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 4: type of pressure. So when he went to the bench, 257 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 4: that was some rough, rough basketball for the Mount Vernon team, 258 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 4: and so they advanced. Am I feeling like you know 259 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 4: you got robbed? If I'm New Albany, yes, If I'm 260 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 4: Mount Vernon, absolutely not. This is mister basketball. This is 261 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 4: what we came to see. 262 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 1: Mount Vernon Crown Point coming up on Saturday night inside 263 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,199 Speaker 1: a Gamebridge Field House. A huge comeback for the Cathedral 264 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,959 Speaker 1: Fighting Irish as they knocked off number one Silver Creek. 265 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: All the number ones are gone. All the number ones 266 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 1: are gone. Silver Creek was the last one standing and Cathedra. 267 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: Yeah the bracket is it Chalky in the high school 268 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: front one and I don't know if Princeville was two 269 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: or three, but they beat the top two teams that 270 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 1: weren't them there in the Seymour semi state. So they 271 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: will take on new Haven, I believe the first time 272 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: for new Haven. John Harrick had a great call there 273 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 1: on new Haven's game winning layup on Saturday. So we 274 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 1: will break it all down for you again.

The early line I saw for 284 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: that one seven and a half perdue favored in that one, 285 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: James Yesterday, Fletcher Lawyer outstanding, Braden Smith struggling, and CJ. 286 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: Cox massive before that hyper extension of his knee. 287 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 4: Absolutely nee. Braden Smith to play much better I think 288 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 4: going forward to continuing the tournament. But hey, we can't 289 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 4: grade wins too much. You win and you can figure 290 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 4: that out later. 291 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 1: Not to put you guys on the spot, but let's 292 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 1: go around the horn your other notable Sweet sixteen type 293 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 1: of moment. I'm actually gonna go back to Nebraska Vanderbilt 294 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,680 Speaker 1: from over the weekend. I mentioned to you guys watching 295 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 1: Nebraska Troy on that Thursday, I could not believe how 296 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 1: big of a crowd Nebraska had in Oklahoma City for 297 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 1: that first round game. Well, it was there on Saturday 298 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: night and the Tyler Tanner three that almost went in 299 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: from mid court there that was I think that what 300 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: that was Gordon Hayward but closer to going in in 301 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: that moment, there another audible reaction from the couch for me. So, 302 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: Caleb Zuver, your other favorite notable moment from this weekend. Well, 303 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: in a game. 304 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 5: Trying to think of a game that didn't have like 305 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 5: a lot of emotional investment. I thought, honestly, just that 306 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 5: Saturday night where you had the Vanderbilt Nebraska game and 307 00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 5: then right into trying to see if high Point could 308 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 5: pull it off against arc. 309 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: Oys bung in there. For those that stayed up, you 310 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: got rewarded Saturday. 311 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 5: Night, Yes, and I thought that was maybe the best 312 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 5: moment of the weekend, just those two games back to back. 313 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 5: You know, I was doing Indiana Sports Talk with Brendan 314 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 5: King Saturday night and we got TVs in that studio now, 315 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 5: so we were living the dream watching those two come 316 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 5: down to the wire. 317 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 1: Rob Martin the little guard for high Point man. He 318 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: was fun to watch. 319 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, No, he could really play. And honestly, those are 320 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 4: usually the types of teams that are upset worthy because 321 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 4: they have like the little guard that can score on anybody, 322 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 4: and then they have the guy who can shoot the 323 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 4: lights out and you never know what you can get. 324 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 4: So that was a fun one. I would go Dylan 325 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 4: Darling mainly because your last name is I mean, is 326 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 4: there a better last name for a game win he 327 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 4: lay up than Darling? You're the Darling of the moment, 328 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 4: I guess, or Darling of the sweet sixteen first point. Yes, 329 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 4: it's unbelievable, and so part of me was like, oh, 330 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 4: what a great moment, and part of me defensively is 331 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 4: just disgusted because how do you let a guy who 332 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 4: has not scored go straight to the basket and make 333 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 4: a layup to beat you? 334 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: Well, he started driving, and I just assumed Floyd Beadungo 335 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 1: is gonna pin it like Florida had done it. 336 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 4: A couple of zents jumped, did you see like the 337 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 4: rep player? No one even jumped. 338 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: And maybe at some point today, Caleb, you can grab 339 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: that Rick Patino audio. He had a pretty clip about 340 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: Darling and telling him that he really wanted the ball. 341 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: They're late, And that was for those that weren't watching. 342 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: Kansas had two fouls at the start of that possession, 343 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 1: so they burnt all their fouls to give and would 344 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 1: just you know, every two seconds, three seconds, they'd foul 345 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: Saint John's in the back court. It was this slow 346 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: bleed of like you're just waiting for them to get 347 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: that moment there, and then it's almost like Kansas players 348 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 1: fell asleep. Which watching Kansas this year, I thought that 349 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 1: quite often. So we are down, of course, to sixteen 350 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: against six Big ten teams. I believe it's four out 351 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: of the sec. We'll chat about this all morning long. 352 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: Pacers in action tonight. They are down in Orlando. They 353 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 1: do have the Lakers and the Clippers at home Wednesday 354 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 1: and Friday this week. Ben mcmatherin still nursing that toe, right. 355 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: I don't think he's returned. I believe so to action here, 356 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 1: so that would be a bit of a bummer here. 357 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 1: But we can get into that Vitza Zubats news as well. 358 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 1: That happened right after we signed off on Friday. Yeah, 359 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 1: he is going to be out for the year with 360 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 1: a rib injury. So just fitting for the Pacers season. 361 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: On a day where you get Siakam back, Nie Smith played, 362 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: nem Hard played, you still don't have Zubats, So it'll 363 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 1: be five games played for a Vitza Zubats to the 364 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 1: Pacers this season. 365 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 4: Yeah. When I saw that Dustin de Pierrac from Any 366 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 4: Star got there, Scoop, I was thinking, this is so 367 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 4: on brand. We should honestly have like pre written stories 368 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 4: with everybody's name in them and say so and so 369 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 4: and so is out for the rest of the year 370 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 4: because are you kidding me? And honestly, remember he got 371 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:45,919 Speaker 4: hit in the head, so the concern was like the 372 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 4: lump on the side of his head. 373 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 1: He chatted with Dustin I think ye Tony East after 374 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 1: the game and the thought was did he get concussed? 375 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 1: Nor you know anything about his ribs? 376 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 4: So you got a long ton of rest up, but 377 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 4: at least he got out there. In all seriousness, I 378 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 4: didn't want to see him in a PACER's and I 379 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 4: think that the pairing down the line with Tyrus will 380 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:04,480 Speaker 4: be a good one. 381 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: Okay. So coming up this weekend here over at Gamebridge 382 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 1: Field House, of course we have the boys state finals 383 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,880 Speaker 1: in one ALB Trayton and bar Reeve. That'll get get 384 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: things started here. Bar Reeve just with one loss on 385 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,880 Speaker 1: the season Park Heritage for the first time in four years, 386 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 1: they've gotten to the semi state each of the last 387 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: three years. They get over the hump steal Mike Woodson quote. 388 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: They will take on twenty seven and one Westview. I 389 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 1: believe in this matchup you have five total losses West 390 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: Heeland has won all of them to four A schools. 391 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 1: So just a great, great match up here in two 392 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: A Park Heritage and Westview, and then the nightcap locally 393 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 1: you'll have Cathedral and three A Mount Vernon and four 394 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,360 Speaker 1: A they'll take on the Bulldogs. It'll be the New 395 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 1: Haven Bulldogs for Cathedral making their first state championship appearance, 396 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 1: and then Crown Point. James, were you at the Hall 397 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,640 Speaker 1: of Fame Classic between these two teams earlier. 398 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:01,439 Speaker 4: Year, I was, and cur got to w I believe 399 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,720 Speaker 4: that was one of like three or four losses that 400 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,119 Speaker 4: mon Vernon has had all year. So the rematch of 401 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 4: what we saw before and two teams that should be 402 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 4: pretty evenly matched. And I do think that Crownpoint probably 403 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 4: has a better overall team considering just their distribution of talent. 404 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:18,159 Speaker 4: But when you have the best player, you always have 405 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 4: a chance. And I thought Luke didn't play his best 406 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,160 Speaker 4: basketball and that loss to Crownpoint, and he'll need it. 407 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,919 Speaker 1: To se Kid that state championship to Kemba Shaw. If 408 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 1: those haven't seen Crownpoint really good player. Sixty to fifty 409 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: six I believe was the first game between these two 410 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 1: teams out there in Newcastle. So that will of course 411 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: be the four A state title coming up on Saturday. 412 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,920 Speaker 1: You will get some afternoon evening night hoops today. From 413 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 1: a women's tournament standpoint, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish advance 414 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 1: to the second round. They will take on Ohio State. 415 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: That is a three to six matchup there. If Notre 416 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,120 Speaker 1: Dame wins, that's revenge for the national Championship game from 417 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 1: a couple of years ago there. So that'll be four 418 00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 1: o'clock today. But the only other thing I have as 419 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,439 Speaker 1: it seems like Tyler Redick and Michael Jordan have been 420 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 1: winning a lot in NASCAR. Yeah, MJ is like addicted 421 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 1: to winning. Boy, you see the reactions from him. It's unbelievable. Yeah, 422 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 1: I mean him and some of those interviews with Jamie 423 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: Little and just like his sheer joy. Yeah, it is. 424 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 1: It is something to watch, to say the least. 425 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,679 Speaker 4: I will say this, and this is on a random tangent. 426 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 4: This how you know he's a goat. So Lebron sets 427 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 4: the record for most games played in the NBA. In 428 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,399 Speaker 4: the jersey he's wearing that night has a Jordan logo 429 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 4: on it. I was just thinking to myself like, yeah, 430 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 4: I was like, boy, it's hard to argue with him 431 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,880 Speaker 4: being the go when things like that kind of serendipitously happen. 432 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,679 Speaker 1: So there you go again. Sweet sixteen tip times coming up. 433 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 1: We mentioned that Purdue in Texas that will be your 434 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: lead off seven to ten. On Thursday. You'll get the 435 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 1: Iowa Nebraska basketball game. That is that'll be the second 436 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 1: game on Thursday night. Of course, you'll have Arizona and 437 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: al Arizona in Arkansas. That'll be about nine to forty 438 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: five approximately on Thursday, and then my favorite Sweet sixteen game, 439 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: James is fighting al Ni against Houston. That'll be the 440 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 1: last one. So then Friday you'll get just some absolutely 441 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:11,679 Speaker 1: loaded matchups. Probably the region with the most intact and 442 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: I would say the most front line coaches Duke against 443 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 1: Rick Patino and Saint John's to lead off Friday night, 444 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 1: and then Izzo and Hurley the second game there from 445 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: DC Michigan State and Yukon. That's one, two, three and 446 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 1: five from a seed standpoint, you get in that Washington 447 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 1: d C. Region. So we'll talk much more about it 448 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,160 Speaker 1: all and certainly focus on the Boilers or day are 449 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 1: back in the Sweet sixteen. They will take on a 450 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 1: familiar face and Cam Heidi, and then it'll be Sean 451 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: Miller and the Longhorns coming up on Thursday out in 452 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,640 Speaker 1: San Jose. Kevin Bow and James Boyd, Caleb Zuver, Good 453 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 1: Monday morning to you. The temperatures drop forty degrees. Welcome 454 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:59,479 Speaker 1: to March in Indy. Voice of the Boilers, Rob Blackman 455 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 1: gonna enjoin us here in ninety minutes. It'll be a 456 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: relatively quick turnaround travel wise here. For Purdue, I assume 457 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 1: they'll depart Tuesday out west. There again, they've got San 458 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: Jose as their next region stop as they go out west, 459 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: so it'll be them in Texas seven to ten. For 460 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 1: new fans. Last year you had to wait till what 461 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 1: ten point thirty for Purdue and Houston to tip off. 462 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: I felt like from Lucas Oil Stadium, you'll be the 463 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,440 Speaker 1: first game on Thursday night, no lead in, so you'll 464 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:30,199 Speaker 1: start on time seven to ten. That'll be CBS and 465 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 1: you will take on the Texas Longhorns and the winner 466 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: will get Arizona and Arkansas. Boy Darius Acuff, it was 467 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: a pretty wise pick James Board in the old playerpool 468 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: by you. 469 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's been playing great basketball. I'm not a lick 470 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 4: of defense, but I don't care in this I need offense. 471 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 1: Well, he certainly brings it. The other freshman guard they've got, 472 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: was it Thomas mkhil Thomas, I think it is. Yeah, 473 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 1: he can really go as well. So that'll be a 474 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 1: great one, great great one here coming up on League 475 00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:02,640 Speaker 1: Thomas Thursday night for the West Region San Jose out there, 476 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 1: Perdue heading to the sweet sixteen the third straight year. Again, 477 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:07,679 Speaker 1: I couldn't believe I was listening on the way in 478 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 1: when they said it was the first time that Perdue 479 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,400 Speaker 1: is won a tournament game trailing at halftime and they're 480 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,919 Speaker 1: only down two. I just thought that the CJ. Cox 481 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: flurry there, all three of those threes, all from around 482 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,399 Speaker 1: the arc there, you know, you brought up the step 483 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 1: back going to his left. I thought the one he 484 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,199 Speaker 1: hit in front of Miami's bench then I think that 485 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 1: might have been the third one. It was also huge. 486 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:32,719 Speaker 1: And again I don't really know if there's like numbers 487 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 1: like quantify it, James, but it just seems like when 488 00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,919 Speaker 1: so many times this season, the Northwestern game stands out 489 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 1: to me the most whenever Perdue just kind of needs that, 490 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: call me bucket. It's him more than anybody else that 491 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 1: just hits that shot. And maybe it's because you kind 492 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:51,360 Speaker 1: of forget about him and he does. You know, he's 493 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,640 Speaker 1: not the frontline guy from a statistical standpoint, so maybe 494 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:58,360 Speaker 1: you notice it a little bit more. But without that 495 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 1: end of the first half there, I don't know, we're 496 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,440 Speaker 1: talking about purduing the Sweet sixteen first seventh time in 497 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: nine years. 498 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, they were flirting with disaster there, I thought during 499 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 4: that stretch, and he hads a couple of stocks to 500 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 4: bail you out and then you know, you tie the game, 501 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 4: because I believe his last three tied the game. They 502 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 4: give up a running layup at the end of the half, 503 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 4: and I'm like, okay, is that you know, a little 504 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 4: bit of another punch to the gut. But I thought 505 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,160 Speaker 4: they did a really good job also when it came 506 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,120 Speaker 4: to slowing down Molikue renew And I know IU fans 507 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 4: will probably trolled me in all of that, but I mean, 508 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 4: he'd be a bit part of Miami this year, and 509 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,679 Speaker 4: he didn't look like thought he could finish around the 510 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 4: basket man. He missed a bunch of bunnies in the 511 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 4: first half, and then the decision making the second half 512 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 4: I didn't love, but I did love this. Caleb, did 513 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 4: you see what Maligue did after the game. No I didn't. 514 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:45,239 Speaker 4: I don't think I did. 515 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: So now you almost need to show Caleb Zuver the 516 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 1: picture first, because I'll be honest, when I saw a 517 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 1: couple of the pictures, I thought, in today's day and age, 518 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 1: I was getting duped. I thought it was photoshop. 519 00:24:58,440 --> 00:24:58,880 Speaker 4: AI. 520 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 1: So just to set this up before James shows Caleb 521 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: these pictures, you know they are that site for Purdue 522 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: was in Saint Louis, right, yes, so the second game 523 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 1: in Saint Louis, correct if I'm wrong, that was Kentucky 524 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: and Iowa State. I believe it was the second game yesterday, 525 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 1: So you have obviously perdue taking on Miami in the 526 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 1: first game. And then of course you have fans that 527 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 1: you know either are staying for the second game or 528 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 1: they're just there for Kentucky in Iowa State. So James, 529 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 1: go ahead and show Caleb these pictures here, because when 530 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 1: I first saw it, I thought one thousand percent that 531 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: that was photoshop. As James walks up to the glass 532 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 1: here to show Caleb Zuver what these these pictures? Now, 533 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 1: I want to be very clear there is no hating 534 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: on maleik renewed from me, right here, Caleb zueb You 535 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:47,919 Speaker 1: you just saw what. 536 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:53,640 Speaker 5: He's in line at the pizza place concession on the concourse. 537 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: He's one of us, one of us. Now he went 538 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,479 Speaker 1: and got a chicken tender basket. Now he's in line, Caleb, 539 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 1: what's he rocking his jersey? He's full uniform. 540 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 4: I don't even think he changed his shoes. 541 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 1: Full uniform. He's not sending a manager up there. He's 542 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 1: not sending a family member up there. He's going to 543 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: section two twelve. And by damn, he smelled those chicken 544 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 1: tenders from the floor, and you know, he looked like 545 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 1: it's shooting some of those layups, and he decided to 546 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: go there after the game. 547 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 5: It's like me in high school when my high school 548 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 5: career ended. You know, I was treating myself for the 549 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 5: next couple days once my career was over, you know 550 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 5: what I mean. 551 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 4: And Denzel Washington memor the video, I believe here's something. 552 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 1: I'm believing here was something, man. It's like, yeah, I'm 553 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: picturing me at Wodock Fields back in the day, being like, man, 554 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 1: if I strike out here, that walking taco comes a 555 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:45,440 Speaker 1: lot quicker. Come on, now, come on, now, I can 556 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 1: smell it, baby, I can smell it so awesome. So 557 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,439 Speaker 1: the big league chew ain't gonna chew itself if I 558 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,120 Speaker 1: get if I get over there to the old concession stare. 559 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 4: In the IU realm. There's been a lot of chatter 560 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 4: of did I you hire the right coach from Drake? 561 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 4: Are you buying any of the this morning here? 562 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, it is interesting because I do think it's a debate. 563 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: We even had last March of like the Ben McCollums story, 564 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 1: and you know, and to be clear, he was hired 565 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 1: a week after correct, And I guess for those that 566 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:20,479 Speaker 1: are not familiar with Ben McCollum's story, an incredible Division 567 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 1: two coach, just like absurd record. He had at a 568 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 1: D two level there and was at Drake just for 569 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 1: one year, right because Darren Devrees took the West Virginia 570 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 1: job and that was the one year that he was 571 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:37,640 Speaker 1: at Drake there. And you know, a lot of people 572 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 1: thought he was a bit of an acquired taste. And 573 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 1: I don't mean that from like a mic cronin personality. 574 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 1: I mean that from if you watched Iowa. They play 575 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: a very slow brand and he's very very selective from 576 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 1: a recruiting standpoint, Like he's very and some of the 577 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:58,439 Speaker 1: stuff I actually kind of agree with, but like, remember 578 00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 1: how huge he is from like a body language standpoint 579 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 1: and like a positivity standpoint, and you know, again some 580 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 1: of that stuff is like, well yeah, Kevin, you know 581 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:08,159 Speaker 1: a lot of people are kind of like that. But 582 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: like he's very outspoken in terms of you know, how 583 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 1: he is or how he will, I guess go about 584 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:17,879 Speaker 1: building Iowa's roster here. I think I could play that 585 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 1: card if I wanted to, but I'm not really gonna 586 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 1: play it that aggressively here on a Monday, Like, I mean, 587 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: where did Iowa finish in the Big ten? You know, 588 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:31,120 Speaker 1: I like, did you know to me the tournament? 589 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 3: Right? 590 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 1: I know? But like again, there's other chance, Kevin. To me, 591 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: it's very like slim pickings of like it's almost like 592 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: the Chris bauerd thing of like everything Chris Bauer does. 593 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 1: If he walks to his mailbox wrong, people are gonna 594 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: be like that. That's why the Colts haven't been in 595 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: the playoffs for the last five years. Well, you know, 596 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:48,479 Speaker 1: someone will say the mailbucks being a different I think 597 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: there's a lot you can be critical of Indiana. I 598 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: think having Mike Woodson coach out that fourth year, that 599 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 1: would probably be a top the list. When Dusty May 600 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 1: is theoretically sitting there for you, that would probably be 601 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: a little bit more of it. I think reacting to 602 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 1: one year of Ben McCollum versus Darren debrees to me 603 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: seems very low hanging fruit. 604 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 4: Well I'm picking anyway. 605 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 1: It doesn't shock at all of it. 606 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 4: I would agree there. I just saw that constant conversation 607 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 4: and chatter online. I just wanted to do something more 608 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 4: to it. And I think it's also just the NCUBLE tournament, 609 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 4: as you all know, and Caleb lives it. But it's 610 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 4: finicky man like, you don't really know what can happen. 611 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 4: And so for example, Iowa, and it's not a discredit 612 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 4: to them, but they're a bad Florida defense from being 613 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 4: eliminated and we're not even having this discussion. So I 614 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 4: do think that's one where it could be a little 615 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 4: nitpicky and a little disingenuous. But that's what we do here. 616 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 4: We analyze everything. 617 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 5: I think it can be dangerous to make tournament results 618 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 5: as the basis of judgment for these coaches and programs. 619 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 5: I think when it's when it becomes a pattern like 620 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 5: you're seeing Kentucky these last couple of years now and 621 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 5: in North Carolina. Now you can kind of start to 622 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:16,719 Speaker 5: make those the results they have in the tournament and 623 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 5: kind of judge them. Okay, where are these programs at? 624 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 5: But I am kind of on Kevin's side, like we 625 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 5: we might need to give it some time, see another 626 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 5: year derees, see another year of Iowa, and then kind 627 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 5: of go from there. 628 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: But I mean, well, I just I can't be talking 629 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: AU basketball at seven forty on the Sweet sixteen Monday either. 630 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: I just I think it's I think it's a little 631 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: disingenuous to Purdue, frankly, uh to even you know, go 632 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: there in the say this in the seven o'clock hour. 633 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 1: And if you want to talk patterns, Caleb Purdue three 634 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 1: straight seven to nine years, you know, as much as 635 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: you want to bring up Fairley Dickinson or North Texas 636 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 1: the other seven years they've made it to the Sweet sixteen. 637 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: And that, to me, it's a true indicator of to 638 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 1: steal the Nick saban or program. Do you have a 639 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 1: legit program? Do the faces change? But your brand is 640 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 1: still showing up in the second weekend, And I think 641 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 1: this is the best. This is one of the best 642 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: weeks that you can have as a fan if your 643 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 1: team gets through the opening weekend of the NCAA tournament 644 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 1: and now you can kick those fricking feed up for 645 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 1: three four days and think to ourselves, man, that was awesome. 646 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: We just watched our team advance and like, you don't 647 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: even have to start thinking about, oh, what if we 648 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 1: went on Thursday? What if we Oh my gosh, are 649 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 1: we forty minutes away from the pot of four? Yeah, 650 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 1: like all of that will inevitably be there. Yeah, but 651 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 1: what a great feeling Like football, You don't necessarily get 652 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 1: that sort of feeling. I guess maybe with the playoff 653 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: you now do. I think it's one of the greatest 654 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 1: weeks of the year as a fan if you have 655 00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 1: one of these teams left in the bracket. 656 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 4: Can I say this, how about Oscar kluff in the hands? 657 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 4: I mean he catches everything I've thought. The behind the 658 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 4: back pass that Braidon had one of his rare highlights yesterday. 659 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: Yeah was and won there. 660 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, but the pass was phenomenal, but it wasn't necessarily 661 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 4: the most accurate. He threw it kind of low. But 662 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 4: Oscar man, he catches everything. The soft hands are there. Well, 663 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 4: it's funny. I want to go back to Friday night 664 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 4: for just a second, because what a weird weekend for 665 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 4: Braidon Smith. You know, he sets the assist record. 666 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: And if you want to like analyze Braiden Smith's game 667 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: to the integree, I thought he shot it very well 668 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,959 Speaker 1: early in the Queen's Game, yecause remember exiting the Big 669 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 1: Ten tournament, I was like, Okay, where's he at from 670 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 1: a shooting standpoint, blah blah blah, and like he was 671 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 1: more of a I thought, a shooter aggressor that even 672 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 1: makes sense. Early in the Friday game. 673 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 4: That was an a performance from him, I thought. 674 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I thought it was really good for Purdue. Now, 675 00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 1: obviously that didn't play out in second round, but you know, 676 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 1: watching Friday Night, it was almost like all these guys 677 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 1: knew the way to the world of what that assist 678 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 1: was going to mean, and no one wanted to make 679 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 1: the shot for for the assist record. It was like 680 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 1: everyone was kind of like a little nerve. I think 681 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 1: there might have been a fumble there. Finally, Kaufman Ren 682 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 1: was the one that had it there. 683 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 4: But also in very Kaufman Reren fashion, get it near 684 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 4: the basket, bang, somebody lay it up like he's such 685 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 4: a physical player. 686 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 1: He is an absolute bullying ball down there. Yeah, it 687 00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: might not be the most sesthetically pleasing. 688 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 4: No, I'm not gonna lie. His whole game is ugly 689 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 4: because he man, we'll take you. It looks it looks 690 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 4: beautiful when it goes to the bass. 691 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 1: And I thought he was a big yesterday in the 692 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: first half there. I mean, Miami does have a little 693 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 1: bit more length. Yeah, and if they do get Arizona 694 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 1: on whatever, that'll be Saturday. I guess for those that 695 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 1: watch Arizona, Krevas the big dude. I mean, he is 696 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 1: a legit, legit I don't even know what they list 697 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: him as. He's seven to two something like that. Very skilled, 698 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 1: and he was wreaking happy last night against Utah State. 699 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: But yeah, going back to Friday there, I thought, just 700 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 1: a cool moment. You know, you kind of feel it 701 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 1: from the Purdue fans, you know, them reacting to the 702 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 1: assist record. I had no idea that the first assistant 703 00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 1: Brinsmith's career was also to Trey Kaufman Ren and then 704 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:02,800 Speaker 1: whatever that is one thousand and eighty seven. 705 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, someone will say that will never happen again because 706 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,760 Speaker 4: guys don't stay long enough to play together at the 707 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:10,719 Speaker 4: same school, and yeah, that one might be there for 708 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 4: a while. 709 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know what, you know, we can get 710 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:14,880 Speaker 1: into this, probably more as the week moves along. But 711 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 1: you know, I do go back to last year in 712 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 1: the tournament where Purdue advances to the sweet sixteen, and 713 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: ironically in the second round game against McNeice. Granted, there 714 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 1: was all this talk about will Wade and you know 715 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 1: how McNeese defense. I think they beat maybe Clemson a 716 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 1: round one if memory serves, and they really suffocated Braid 717 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 1: Smith in that game. And then it was all this 718 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: talk about okay, now house, Purdue gonna handle Houston. It's 719 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 1: the big bad Kelvin Sampson defense and all this pressure 720 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 1: and Brad and I thought quarterback one of the more 721 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: brilliant performances I've seen from a point guard against a 722 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 1: Kelvin Samson team in quite some time. So you know 723 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 1: that I think is you know, some encouragement. You know, 724 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 1: Caleb brings up patterns earlier. I mean, Branden Smith having 725 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:04,720 Speaker 1: a performance like he did yesterday is probably not something 726 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 1: he's strung together too many times in his career, and 727 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,520 Speaker 1: certainly Texas. I don't think game but he've views him 728 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 1: as a Houston defense But in general, Braidon is I think. 729 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:14,759 Speaker 1: I think continue to see a lot of length on 730 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:18,880 Speaker 1: him from a defensive standpoint, but I fully expect him 731 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 1: to bounce back in a pretty emphatic way come Thursday night. 732 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:25,920 Speaker 4: Absolutely, can I switch gears a little bit. Still tournament related, 733 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 4: but Darren Peterson now out. I thought he had a 734 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:34,240 Speaker 4: fine game in their elimination game. But at the same time, 735 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 4: now that I want to say, the only player that's 736 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 4: left standing that the Pacers would consider drafting if they 737 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 4: get the top four pick. Cam Boozer, how do you 738 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 4: feel about the Peterson the Bands of debate, Like, did 739 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 4: Peterson do it himself enough to garner attention to be 740 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 4: the number one pick? Again? I don't even know if, 741 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:54,760 Speaker 4: like if he slid that much, but in my mind 742 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 4: I probably firmly have the Bands as my number one 743 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:02,479 Speaker 4: overall selection because of of myriad of factors, but health 744 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,759 Speaker 4: being one of them, but also the Bands was a 745 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 4: monster to end the season, where I thought Darren he 746 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 4: looked pretty good yesterday in the tournament games, but I 747 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 4: don't know. He's just an odd case man. He's an 748 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 4: odd case dive anyway. 749 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, so much of it's gonna come down to vetting, 750 00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:18,560 Speaker 1: like off the floor with him, which I think makes 751 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: it difficult, you know for us, I guess because it's like, well, 752 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 1: I mean, we don't really know this backstory. I know CJ. Moore, 753 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,439 Speaker 1: your colleague for The Athletic. He wrote actually a couple 754 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: of pieces I really enjoyed reading. One was on Darren Peterson, 755 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 1: and then he also sat down with Braiden Smith. Yeah, 756 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,879 Speaker 1: went over some of Braden's favorite assists over the years. 757 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 1: Maybe we can have him on at some point this week, James, 758 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 1: because I really enjoyed that sitting down with Braiden and 759 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 1: he was half joking as serious when he said he 760 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 1: thought Zachie he was the hardest person to throw a 761 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 1: past two of anybody during this record here. But you know, 762 00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 1: as far as Peterson is concerned, you know, I kind 763 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 1: of go back to a conversation we had a few 764 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 1: weeks back, James, where the Pacers are in such a 765 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 1: unique period with they are drafting. Let's just say they 766 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:06,880 Speaker 1: get a top four pick. You obviously are expecting a 767 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 1: championship type of team as early as next season, and 768 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 1: you're also expecting a franchise to not be drafted in 769 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:15,880 Speaker 1: the top five for years to come. So how do 770 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 1: you view that? Do you view it and say, hey, 771 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:22,080 Speaker 1: we're trying to win tomorrow. We need to find the 772 00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:26,480 Speaker 1: most ready made NBA player tomorrow. A lot of people 773 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 1: maybe say that's Cameron Boozer, Yeah, Or do you look 774 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:33,440 Speaker 1: at and say, you know what, as a franchise, we 775 00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 1: don't plan to be drafting up here anytime soon. This 776 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:41,799 Speaker 1: is our one shot to try and draft generationally. And 777 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 1: do you feel like with Pascal Siakam, with Tyres Aliburn, 778 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:48,840 Speaker 1: with the Hall of Fame coach and Rick Carlisle, that 779 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:51,399 Speaker 1: you can draft a player that might have a little 780 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 1: bit of immaturity and say, you know what, that guy 781 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,360 Speaker 1: will grow with us, that guy will adapt to our culture, 782 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:03,800 Speaker 1: put him under our you know, wings, and that nineteen 783 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 1: year old we'll turn into something here at twenty two 784 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,680 Speaker 1: to twenty three and we'll get the last laugh. A 785 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 1: little bit more risk with that, certainly, yeah, But are 786 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:16,279 Speaker 1: you in a position right now to do something like that? 787 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:20,719 Speaker 4: Boy? That is a great question. Can I throw a 788 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 4: third option. 789 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, what if they get one of those picks and 790 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:30,280 Speaker 5: they don't want to be on a nineteen or twenty 791 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 5: year old's timeline and they hit up I don't know. 792 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 5: I can't see Yannis coming here, but you know, there's 793 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 5: new superstars that want to be traded every offseason in 794 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 5: the NBA, and the Pacers can dangle one of those 795 00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,840 Speaker 5: picks out there and say we're going for it right now. 796 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:53,560 Speaker 5: Is that Is that something in your guys's mind that 797 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 5: could happen. I think it's not out of the question. 798 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 4: I don't think it's out of the question, but I 799 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 4: do think it's probably like the path they least want 800 00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 4: to go down, mainly because you're trying to make sure 801 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:13,799 Speaker 4: you can sustain your window as long as possible, and 802 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 4: as much as you want to say they'll be right 803 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 4: back there, we really don't know what this version of 804 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:23,439 Speaker 4: the Pacers will be like without the number four pick, 805 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 4: assuming that that's out of the question for now, just 806 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:28,760 Speaker 4: looking at it in a vacuum, your team construction has changed, 807 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,520 Speaker 4: players are older, Tyrese might not be the same player. 808 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 4: So like, there's a lot of questions moving parts about 809 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 4: that that I don't know if they would want to 810 00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 4: move in that direction. I don't hate the idea of it, 811 00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:44,360 Speaker 4: but I do think they would probably prefer knowing the 812 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,359 Speaker 4: pacers like, let's just get our homegrown talent and see 813 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:48,719 Speaker 4: if we can develop it here. 814 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:50,799 Speaker 1: Yeah. One other question I would have to Caleb is 815 00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:54,360 Speaker 1: just financially, you know, you would have to be dipping 816 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:57,840 Speaker 1: very deeply into a tax I would. 817 00:39:57,680 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 4: Assume the penalties that come with it. 818 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 1: Sure, if you are going to say, hey, rookie, contract 819 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:06,480 Speaker 1: scale is going out the window and we're gonna absorb whatever. 820 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:10,040 Speaker 1: You use the name Giannis, obviously you know something of 821 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 1: you know, major major money here. It was interesting, you know. 822 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,320 Speaker 1: I stayed up. I went the four o'clock coffee on Saturday. 823 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,760 Speaker 1: I go, I have got to stay up for Arkansas 824 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 1: high Point. I'm like, this is my favorite game of 825 00:40:21,200 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 1: the day. I have to stay up for it. I 826 00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:26,680 Speaker 1: would say I got my money's worth absolutely in staying 827 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,200 Speaker 1: up for it. I thought High Point was outstanding watching 828 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:32,720 Speaker 1: that game. But Darius Acuff just finished a first round 829 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 1: of or first weekend of the tournament, where he scored 830 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:38,400 Speaker 1: the most points we've ever seen a freshman score in 831 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 1: his first two NCA tournament games. I don't know if 832 00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:43,360 Speaker 1: John cali Perry has said this outright, but you have 833 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:47,399 Speaker 1: some people saying he's the best guard, best point guard 834 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:50,880 Speaker 1: John Caliperry's ever coached in college. I don't need to 835 00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 1: remind anybody of that list, but it's quite the list 836 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:57,480 Speaker 1: of point guards. Yeah, that callus coach thirty NBA teams 837 00:40:57,480 --> 00:41:02,360 Speaker 1: out there as many NBA teams, any NBA team is 838 00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:04,359 Speaker 1: probably the better way to put it. That would take 839 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 1: Darius a Cuff over Tyres Haliburn, Oh coming off a 840 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:11,640 Speaker 1: toorny kiss. And I bring that up to say some 841 00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 1: people kind of view a Cuff in that five ish range. Yeah, 842 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,719 Speaker 1: such a generational draft, such a great draft. I don't know. 843 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 1: Maybe he has pushed himself above Caleb Willison, maybe as 844 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:23,839 Speaker 1: pushed himself above Cameron Boozer to some right, But like 845 00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:27,720 Speaker 1: coming off of torn a chillies, you think there's anybody 846 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:31,560 Speaker 1: out there. I mean, it's a peak NBA debate because 847 00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:36,040 Speaker 1: we cherished these nineteen year old Yeah, what could they sue? 848 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: Like none of the potential. 849 00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:40,839 Speaker 4: I've had a lot of upside in my day, Caleb, 850 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:44,880 Speaker 4: I haven't always reached it, but I look at it 851 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:47,240 Speaker 4: as you probably still want to bet on the product 852 00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:52,120 Speaker 4: that you've seen in Tyree's right, and probably I would 853 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:55,279 Speaker 4: be encouraged by the Achille recoveries of other players. Like 854 00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 4: if you're telling me this guy went to the same 855 00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 4: surgeon that Jason Tatum had, and I believe Kevin Durant 856 00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 4: might have had the same guy. I could be mistaken, 857 00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:07,920 Speaker 4: but my point is you've seen the recovery in recent 858 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,320 Speaker 4: years be a lot different and a lot more encouraging. 859 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:14,479 Speaker 4: So that's probably why I would lean towards Halliburton because 860 00:42:14,520 --> 00:42:16,440 Speaker 4: I've just seen him do it at the highest level. 861 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:20,359 Speaker 4: Like for as great as Darius Acuff Junior is, I'm 862 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:23,240 Speaker 4: not sure he's going to be an All NBA caliber player. 863 00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:26,719 Speaker 4: Like he has the potential to be that, but I 864 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:28,319 Speaker 4: can't sit here to day and say that he will be. 865 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:31,719 Speaker 4: I can say with Tyrese you have been. That might 866 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:33,480 Speaker 4: be why lean towards Tyrese. 867 00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:37,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, any of the thirty NBA teams, because you know, 868 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 1: if the Pacers do indeed lose that pick, you know, 869 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 1: there's a little bit of a boy could be a 870 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:41,960 Speaker 1: cuff could it be? 871 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 4: What's crazy is that if they didn't have Halliburton, it 872 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,920 Speaker 4: would be a conversation here like, oh, could he be 873 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:48,520 Speaker 4: your lead guard to start your friends? I mean, that's 874 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 4: the only reason we're not talking about him is like, 875 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 4: well, well they already have a point guard. 876 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,839 Speaker 1: Well if you're like, if you don't play it out further. 877 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,719 Speaker 1: If they had a Halliburton equivalent at center, but they 878 00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 1: were searching for the point guard, oh, they would have 879 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,360 Speaker 1: kept the pick. Is theoretically a Cuff or Kingston Flemings 880 00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:04,799 Speaker 1: from Houston for the time one like that would be 881 00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:06,880 Speaker 1: your point guard of the future. 882 00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 7: Yep. 883 00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 1: Much more on the Boilers, the latest on CJ.

When we return, 885 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 1: Caleb will play the re entry preview, I should say, 886 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 1: recap him.

And I know, come Thursday night, 992 00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:19,279 Speaker 1: no one will care about that as soon as a 993 00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:21,640 Speaker 1: balls tip at seven ten, oh gosh, But on Monday 994 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:23,799 Speaker 1: and on Tuesday, on Wednesday, I think you can really 995 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:28,279 Speaker 1: really appreciate what Matt Painter and what that program continues 996 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:30,200 Speaker 1: to accomplish. 997 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:34,919 Speaker 4: And they're doing it in a unique way Kevin, where yes, 998 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:37,839 Speaker 4: they've utilize a transfer portal and they've had players leave, 999 00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 4: but it's still so much homegrown talent on this roster 1000 00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:46,200 Speaker 4: that you just normally don't see in college basketball these days. 1001 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:48,879 Speaker 4: I mean, you look at Michigan, they're a different team. 1002 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 4: You look at what Iowa has done, They're a different team. 1003 00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:58,239 Speaker 4: Whereas with Purdue, you don't see many players grow up 1004 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,879 Speaker 4: into who they are are now, Like the Fletcher Lawyer 1005 00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,920 Speaker 4: we saw yesterday was not always who he was. And 1006 00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:07,920 Speaker 4: Braid Smith, to his credit, has been a great point 1007 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:11,800 Speaker 4: guard throughout all his college career. But again, he's to 1008 00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 4: a point where you have to play him on a 1009 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:15,520 Speaker 4: short list of point guards ever to play the game 1010 00:50:15,560 --> 00:50:19,560 Speaker 4: of college basketball, and to just not leave. Because I'm 1011 00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:22,319 Speaker 4: sure you mentioned Cam Heidi, how much do you think 1012 00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:23,320 Speaker 4: Brady Smith got offered? 1013 00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:25,600 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, to leave millions? 1014 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:29,760 Speaker 4: I mean, and he stayed, and Trey Kauf Marinch stayed, 1015 00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 4: and even after the embarrassment, they decided to, you know, 1016 00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:37,960 Speaker 4: take that opportunity or take that loss. Really, I can't 1017 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,520 Speaker 4: call it an opportunity got kicked in the mouth, but 1018 00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:43,239 Speaker 4: to respond and respond to this manner. So I do 1019 00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:45,799 Speaker 4: think at times, and Caleb touched on this a little 1020 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:49,319 Speaker 4: bit earlier, the NCAA tournament can be finicky, it can 1021 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:52,200 Speaker 4: be heartbreaking, it can be weird. And so when you 1022 00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:54,359 Speaker 4: don't have the success at this point of the year, 1023 00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:55,960 Speaker 4: and by success I mean for Purdue it's winning a 1024 00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:59,480 Speaker 4: national championship. When you don't have that, all the other 1025 00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:02,279 Speaker 4: stuff to get discarded, which may not always be fair. 1026 00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,440 Speaker 4: To evaluate them like that, because what we're seeing here 1027 00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:07,520 Speaker 4: from the senior class in particular is special. 1028 00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:10,640 Speaker 1: Again coming up Thursday night, it'll be them in Texas 1029 00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 1: early seven and a half point favorite in that one. 1030 00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:16,360 Speaker 1: You go back to the weekend they just had. I 1031 00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:18,520 Speaker 1: thought Friday night, you know, part of me was like, Okay, 1032 00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:20,560 Speaker 1: it's kind of important that you're seeing Braiden Smith honestly 1033 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:23,480 Speaker 1: score a little bit more from the assist record he had. 1034 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:26,160 Speaker 1: That patent had kind of fade away, you know, baseline jumper. 1035 00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:29,640 Speaker 1: That is probably the shot that I think of the 1036 00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:34,719 Speaker 1: most with Braden Smith. But Chris Paul, Yeah, well we've 1037 00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:37,719 Speaker 1: actually get to the twelve fifteen and just raise up, 1038 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:40,279 Speaker 1: Raise up. I can definitely see that. And then you know, 1039 00:51:41,040 --> 00:51:43,359 Speaker 1: yesterday he really really struggles and you know we've talked 1040 00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:45,200 Speaker 1: about a lot here to lead off the show, but 1041 00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:48,080 Speaker 1: you know that CJ. Cox flurry to end the first 1042 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 1: half was just massive. I thought to kind of weathering 1043 00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:53,920 Speaker 1: Miami storm. You know, really produced struggled right out of 1044 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:55,200 Speaker 1: the gate. I mean, if you want to go back 1045 00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:57,879 Speaker 1: to the opening tip, you blink and there's an alley 1046 00:51:57,880 --> 00:51:59,759 Speaker 1: oop on you, and then you come down and you 1047 00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:01,960 Speaker 1: turn over Miami comes down and they bang home with 1048 00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:04,360 Speaker 1: three and it's like, Okay, you better strap up. This 1049 00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:05,120 Speaker 1: isn't Queen's here. 1050 00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:07,440 Speaker 4: And why do you think they were so successful with 1051 00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:11,279 Speaker 4: guarding Braiden in particular, because I thought, man, I haven't 1052 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:13,680 Speaker 4: seen him be that loose with the ball or really 1053 00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:16,200 Speaker 4: really just be that kind of I don't know, out 1054 00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:16,880 Speaker 4: chess matched. 1055 00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:17,480 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1056 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:20,080 Speaker 1: I mean again, it's not like he hasn't had length 1057 00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:22,440 Speaker 1: put on him by Big ten teams. But I did think, 1058 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:24,920 Speaker 1: what was it the Henderson kid? That dude, boy, that 1059 00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:27,000 Speaker 1: dude looks like he could start for Mario Crystobal. 1060 00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:29,560 Speaker 4: Honestly, Yeah, I was looking at him like, there's your 1061 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:32,280 Speaker 4: edge rusher, Colvert, go get him. They want to get football, 1062 00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 4: you want to get basket player, they ain't play football, 1063 00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:36,359 Speaker 4: Go get him. Yeah, that dude looked explosive is all 1064 00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:37,799 Speaker 4: get out. He was great for them. 1065 00:52:37,960 --> 00:52:39,600 Speaker 1: So I think it is a reminder of you know, 1066 00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:45,880 Speaker 1: against Texas and against but I assume Arizona, but even Arkansas. 1067 00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:48,920 Speaker 1: You're gonna have great rent protection from these teams left 1068 00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:50,440 Speaker 1: in the West Region, but you're probably gonna see that 1069 00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:52,719 Speaker 1: initial length out there. And again, I don't want to 1070 00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:56,080 Speaker 1: act like you know, Miami has created some sort of 1071 00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,880 Speaker 1: blueprint to all of a sudden, you know, lock up 1072 00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:01,200 Speaker 1: Braiden Smith. I mean, he's been doing it for four years, 1073 00:53:01,239 --> 00:53:04,160 Speaker 1: and I fully expect that he will bounce back. But yeah, 1074 00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:06,359 Speaker 1: I think that kind of impacted some of it there, 1075 00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:09,600 Speaker 1: you know, honestly, more than just the jumper being a 1076 00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:13,960 Speaker 1: little short. I thought just some sloppy turnovers from him, 1077 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:16,399 Speaker 1: some very uncharacteristically. I don't even know if I'd really 1078 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:21,680 Speaker 1: credit Miami's length necessarily for some of it, but you know, 1079 00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:24,280 Speaker 1: to me, it is just another indication of where Purdue 1080 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:28,040 Speaker 1: is at as a program that when Braden has such 1081 00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:31,080 Speaker 1: an off game, I mean a career high eight turnovers, 1082 00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:34,680 Speaker 1: he's not shooting the basketball well. Yet Fletcher Lawyer does 1083 00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:37,279 Speaker 1: what he does, and again CJ. Cox says what he does. 1084 00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:41,799 Speaker 1: I thought Kaufman kauflin Ren was very, very efficient as well. 1085 00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:43,920 Speaker 1: I mean pretty shot the lights out when you look 1086 00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:46,520 Speaker 1: at from a three point standpoint, from a foul line standpoint, 1087 00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:48,359 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know what the final numbers were, 1088 00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:49,919 Speaker 1: but it felt like they didn't miss a free throw 1089 00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 1: all game as well. And I don't know, if I 1090 00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:55,920 Speaker 1: don't want to act like it was perfect, But I 1091 00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:59,560 Speaker 1: thought Jakari Harris just had a couple of nice plays. 1092 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:02,120 Speaker 1: You really needed him, because I was curious when Cox 1093 00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 1: went out, would they go more Jakari Harris or would 1094 00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:08,360 Speaker 1: you put Omar Meyer in the game to kind of 1095 00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:12,040 Speaker 1: be another ball handler with Braiden? With Braiden struggling a little, 1096 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:14,799 Speaker 1: and Jakari Harris is kind of the guy that they 1097 00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:16,640 Speaker 1: stuck with there, and I thought he had a huge 1098 00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:18,279 Speaker 1: open three. He had a big block at some point 1099 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:21,960 Speaker 1: as well. But again, you know last year in the 1100 00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:25,640 Speaker 1: second round, Braiden struggled against McNeice, and then I thought 1101 00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:27,840 Speaker 1: against Houston he had one of the really mast games 1102 00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:32,400 Speaker 1: of his college career. So I fully expect him to 1103 00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:34,719 Speaker 1: bounce back. Do you make anything of the Cam Heidi thing? 1104 00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:38,280 Speaker 1: This is going to be a blown out of proportion 1105 00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:42,240 Speaker 1: topic by Thursday. Oh absolutely. I'm from a TV crew person. 1106 00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:44,040 Speaker 1: I'm asking to see you know, every PJ. 1107 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:47,640 Speaker 4: Thompson's whiteboard call here, you'll get a little but what 1108 00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:49,839 Speaker 4: are they always like behind enemy lines? And this isn't 1109 00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:52,920 Speaker 4: war people, but you'll get a lot of that conversation. Oh, 1110 00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:54,480 Speaker 4: do you remember any of the sets that they run 1111 00:54:54,560 --> 00:54:56,680 Speaker 4: did you, you know, talk to your coach about what 1112 00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:59,279 Speaker 4: Matt Painter might do in X y Z situation? But 1113 00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:03,640 Speaker 4: it's an easy talking point, but I don't think it's 1114 00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:07,640 Speaker 4: necessarily as big as we will make it. Although from 1115 00:55:07,719 --> 00:55:10,200 Speaker 4: a revenge standpoint, if there is such a thing, I mean, 1116 00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:12,360 Speaker 4: it wasn't like cam Heidie was wrong to Purdue, but 1117 00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:14,480 Speaker 4: I do think that has a little more juice for 1118 00:55:14,520 --> 00:55:17,480 Speaker 4: him personally. Perhaps I don't think any competitor would deny that. 1119 00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:20,640 Speaker 1: Again, he starts for Texas, but it doesn't really play much. 1120 00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:24,239 Speaker 1: Sean Miller was He didn't hold back after the game, 1121 00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:27,040 Speaker 1: praising himself for putting Heidi in there for I guess 1122 00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:29,719 Speaker 1: the shot that kind of iced it over Gonzaga there 1123 00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:33,759 Speaker 1: on Saturday nights. It is the best finish we've had 1124 00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:34,759 Speaker 1: of this tournament so far? 1125 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:36,120 Speaker 8: Was it? 1126 00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:36,600 Speaker 1: Kentucky? 1127 00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:41,120 Speaker 4: Santa Clara gotta be right? So I now I have 1128 00:55:41,239 --> 00:55:43,839 Speaker 4: to ask, do you all think the time ouse should 1129 00:55:43,840 --> 00:55:45,319 Speaker 4: have been granted? Did the ref screw that up? 1130 00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:51,520 Speaker 1: I think herb Sendek could have been more demonstrative. Yes 1131 00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:53,440 Speaker 1: in getting the time out. I think if you are 1132 00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:56,120 Speaker 1: a coach, because first split second, I think he forgot 1133 00:55:56,200 --> 00:55:58,480 Speaker 1: he was supposed to take. He did the time they 1134 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,200 Speaker 1: cost him, and as Kentucky's already inbound the ball, then 1135 00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:03,040 Speaker 1: he realized it. I think, if you are a coach 1136 00:56:03,080 --> 00:56:05,360 Speaker 1: in that moment, they're not calling a technical on you 1137 00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:08,120 Speaker 1: run out to the free throw line, yeah, and call it, 1138 00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:10,759 Speaker 1: like is there anything better than Rick Carlisle literally like 1139 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:12,879 Speaker 1: there at the free throw line and it's like, oh wow, 1140 00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:15,120 Speaker 1: I guess it's a timeout. And then finally like one 1141 00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:16,920 Speaker 1: of the officials is like, oh ye have timeout basers. 1142 00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:19,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, the coaching box doesn't exist with that. 1143 00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:22,040 Speaker 1: Like as soon as the three goes in, Rick just 1144 00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:24,200 Speaker 1: walks straight through the free throw line. Caleb I thought 1145 00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:28,000 Speaker 1: he waited maybe like one and a half seconds. Yeah, 1146 00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:29,600 Speaker 1: like you gotta go in the reft turn and then 1147 00:56:29,640 --> 00:56:31,560 Speaker 1: he went's the wrong ref. He turns to the. 1148 00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:34,800 Speaker 4: Ref that's running up the court, right back turn. And 1149 00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:37,560 Speaker 4: I can't sit there and say like it technically it 1150 00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:39,839 Speaker 4: should have been a time out, But I can't sit 1151 00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:42,440 Speaker 4: here and say like, oh my god, they were absolutely 1152 00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:47,400 Speaker 4: screwed by the refs like em and he still got 1153 00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:47,919 Speaker 4: to make the shot. 1154 00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:50,279 Speaker 5: The shot was incredible, and there was an overtime after that. 1155 00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:53,400 Speaker 4: That's true, but I guess part of it is like 1156 00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:55,840 Speaker 4: when you're the underdog, it's like you're one chance to knock. 1157 00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:59,040 Speaker 1: Them off, but you very rarely see the three made 1158 00:56:59,280 --> 00:57:01,280 Speaker 1: Do we have three made buckets in the final fifteen 1159 00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:04,800 Speaker 1: seconds with no with no stoppages, right, Well, that was 1160 00:57:04,920 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 1: the thing, like especially yesterday Layup i O Way and then. 1161 00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:15,080 Speaker 5: I think yesterday and that Florida Iowa game. I think 1162 00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:19,360 Speaker 5: that was the game where there was like five different 1163 00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 5: reviews in the last four minutes breach and I and 1164 00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:26,160 Speaker 5: I think it's it's like I understand, you know, putting 1165 00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:28,920 Speaker 5: time on the clock and like checking to see who 1166 00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:31,240 Speaker 5: the out of bounds is off of, But if it's 1167 00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:34,240 Speaker 5: eleven minutes to go in the first half, we're not 1168 00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:37,440 Speaker 5: checking for who who touched it last. We're not putting 1169 00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:39,960 Speaker 5: half a second back on the clock. And and I 1170 00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:45,600 Speaker 5: think giving these teams free timeouts basically fatigue is a factor, 1171 00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:49,680 Speaker 5: lady in the game. They get resting time that matters 1172 00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:51,520 Speaker 5: in the strategy of a game. And it's just a 1173 00:57:51,640 --> 00:57:55,680 Speaker 5: hard watch. So I appreciated the Kentucky Santa Clara regulation 1174 00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:59,040 Speaker 5: finish because yeah, it was just no stoppages, just. 1175 00:57:59,080 --> 00:58:01,720 Speaker 1: Boom boom, boom. Yeah, you had a For those that 1176 00:58:01,800 --> 00:58:04,600 Speaker 1: didn't watch Saint John's Kansas, you had a weird ending 1177 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:08,440 Speaker 1: to that one as well, because Kansas was it. Peterson 1178 00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:10,959 Speaker 1: hit the two foul shots. I think that that tied 1179 00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:15,280 Speaker 1: it up, and then Kansas only had committed two fouls 1180 00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:17,080 Speaker 1: up until that point in the second half, so they 1181 00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:21,080 Speaker 1: had all these fouls to give, and Bill self takes 1182 00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:25,360 Speaker 1: all the fouls, tells this team to well, I mean, 1183 00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:27,600 Speaker 1: what are they found four or five times in like 1184 00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:30,720 Speaker 1: a fifteen second sequence. And I don't know if that 1185 00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:33,200 Speaker 1: was the Humble stan Van Gundy crew. I thought Humble 1186 00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:36,480 Speaker 1: and Stanley Gundy were excellent. They were. That was that 1187 00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 1: crew and stand at some point or maybe it was 1188 00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:42,040 Speaker 1: a Humble one of the two. After like foul number three, 1189 00:58:42,080 --> 00:58:43,600 Speaker 1: they were like, you got to throw the ball in 1190 00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:46,240 Speaker 1: the front court. If you're Saint John's, you know you 1191 00:58:46,320 --> 00:58:48,240 Speaker 1: have to. They are going to foul you. Well make 1192 00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:51,720 Speaker 1: sure you're inbounding it up there. Whenever the time comes 1193 00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:55,360 Speaker 1: of them committing that final foul. Ironically, they never really 1194 00:58:55,480 --> 00:58:58,720 Speaker 1: got it into the front court. And then Dylan Darling 1195 00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:02,720 Speaker 1: is only made bucket of the game. Is that lay 1196 00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:04,640 Speaker 1: up there that Honestly, when he shot it, I was 1197 00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:07,440 Speaker 1: just waiting for Flora Badomo to block it, and then 1198 00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:10,040 Speaker 1: weirdly like I guess I'm just used to that with 1199 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:12,960 Speaker 1: Flori and he doesn't get over there in time and 1200 00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:15,920 Speaker 1: going home Rick Beatino advances. 1201 00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:16,880 Speaker 8: Yeah. 1202 00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:19,600 Speaker 5: Just I just think on some of those late finishes 1203 00:59:19,680 --> 00:59:22,200 Speaker 5: there was just some bad defense by the teams that 1204 00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:24,720 Speaker 5: led it up. Like I think, if you're Kansas, as 1205 00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:27,160 Speaker 5: soon as Darling takes a dribble towards the basket with 1206 00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:30,240 Speaker 5: three seconds left, like he's probably not going to be 1207 00:59:30,280 --> 00:59:32,680 Speaker 5: able to get a kick out there, you gotta collapse 1208 00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:35,160 Speaker 5: and try to help on that. So saw it in 1209 00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:38,760 Speaker 5: the Florida game too, with their defense on stirts. There's 1210 00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:41,040 Speaker 5: just a very very interesting strategy this weekend. 1211 00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:43,040 Speaker 4: My whole thing is just make them make a decision. 1212 00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:45,160 Speaker 4: You let him dribble from the top of the key 1213 00:59:45,280 --> 00:59:48,280 Speaker 4: all the way to the basket for game like that 1214 00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:52,320 Speaker 4: is boy, I mean, losing on like the three from 1215 00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:56,720 Speaker 4: Iowa's probably you can you can argue, man, that's that's 1216 00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:59,959 Speaker 4: a bad move, that's bad defense, but they may starts giving. 1217 01:00:00,680 --> 01:00:02,960 Speaker 4: I'm like, you just let the guy walk down Main 1218 01:00:03,080 --> 01:00:04,720 Speaker 4: Street and send you to the Korea. 1219 01:00:04,960 --> 01:00:08,120 Speaker 1: The first dribble cannot be a downhill dribble like sturts 1220 01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:11,840 Speaker 1: and nobody reacts. I mean, starts covers Usaint Bolt strides 1221 01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:14,120 Speaker 1: there in the first twenty feet and it's like if 1222 01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:17,040 Speaker 1: he has to dribble backwards to the side, they're not 1223 01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:19,680 Speaker 1: getting that starts to shoot because you know full well starts. 1224 01:00:20,280 --> 01:00:21,960 Speaker 1: That dude's got as green of a light as anybody 1225 01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:24,400 Speaker 1: in college basketball. That dude will happily chuck up something 1226 01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:27,280 Speaker 1: crazy there. Yeah, in that moment. So I'll Sandy finishes 1227 01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:31,120 Speaker 1: just Ay again. Six Big ten teams now here in 1228 01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:34,520 Speaker 1: the sweet sixteen. I love Illinois and Houston. I know 1229 01:00:35,920 --> 01:00:38,160 Speaker 1: there that game will be in Houston. So how about this. 1230 01:00:38,280 --> 01:00:41,720 Speaker 1: Houston is now that South Region with Florida knocked out, 1231 01:00:42,080 --> 01:00:45,360 Speaker 1: you have three Big ten teams in Kelvin Sampson, so 1232 01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:48,880 Speaker 1: you'll get Iowa Nebraska. How about that Iowa or Nebraska 1233 01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:54,000 Speaker 1: will be forty minutes away from the final four. Imagine 1234 01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:54,920 Speaker 1: saying that at the start of the. 1235 01:00:54,960 --> 01:00:58,080 Speaker 4: Year, it is Nebraska went through the team that had 1236 01:00:58,200 --> 01:00:59,480 Speaker 4: won like hadn't won a tournament. 1237 01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:02,040 Speaker 1: Still is turned the game and then I love that 1238 01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:06,200 Speaker 1: matchup of the fighting line I against Kelvin Samson. 1239 01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:08,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, one with a little heart overhead on that one. 1240 01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:11,280 Speaker 4: Picking Illinois over Houston. I think they can be Houston, 1241 01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:13,960 Speaker 4: but Houston is Houston every year. I feel like they're 1242 01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:14,720 Speaker 4: in this conversation. 1243 01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:20,160 Speaker 1: I cannot. I mean literally, every every beer that is 1244 01:01:20,200 --> 01:01:22,240 Speaker 1: in the city of Houston better be in vicinity of 1245 01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:26,160 Speaker 1: Iowa Nebraska fans on Thursday. But you are warning yourself now, Iowa. 1246 01:01:26,360 --> 01:01:28,840 Speaker 1: I think they still drink Cadillac. They probably close down 1247 01:01:28,880 --> 01:01:30,959 Speaker 1: Cadillac Ranch for good with how many beers they drank 1248 01:01:31,440 --> 01:01:33,560 Speaker 1: a few years ago during the Big Ten championship there, 1249 01:01:34,120 --> 01:01:36,920 Speaker 1: all right, Rob Blackman at nine, Mike de COURSI, we'll 1250 01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:39,200 Speaker 1: talk more about where we're at in a final sixteen 1251 01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:41,920 Speaker 1: here with the tourney, we'll do that. 1252 01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 4: On the other side, Caleb is checked down, all right. 1253 01:01:45,040 --> 01:01:48,240 Speaker 1: Going back to yesterday, the Boilers, they advance over the 1254 01:01:48,320 --> 01:01:51,720 Speaker 1: Miami Hurricanes there into the sweet sixteen. It'll be the 1255 01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:55,160 Speaker 1: Texas Longhorns coming up Thursday night. Early line in that 1256 01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:58,760 Speaker 1: one about seven and a half point favorite for the Boilers. 1257 01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:01,760 Speaker 1: No Purdue player has been more consistent, or I would 1258 01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:05,120 Speaker 1: argue better than Fletcher Lawyer over the last month and 1259 01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:08,960 Speaker 1: a half. Matt Payn after the game yesterday on the 1260 01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:09,960 Speaker 1: four Win Product. 1261 01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:12,560 Speaker 2: You look at tk's minutes along with Fletch and Braiden 1262 01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:14,880 Speaker 2: and it's it's their time, you know what I mean, 1263 01:02:15,040 --> 01:02:15,920 Speaker 2: it is their time. 1264 01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:20,000 Speaker 1: Oh, we'll get you the full Fletcher Lawyer clip here 1265 01:02:20,040 --> 01:02:24,160 Speaker 1: coming up in a few again. Six Big Ten teams 1266 01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:26,200 Speaker 1: advancing here. I guess for the most part, James, all 1267 01:02:26,280 --> 01:02:29,400 Speaker 1: of the seeds that you thought would be there would advance. 1268 01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:32,800 Speaker 1: But I was the one outlier in that. I did 1269 01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:34,320 Speaker 1: feel bad for Ucla. I don't know how much you 1270 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:36,800 Speaker 1: watched the UCLA Yukon last night. Tyler bilodeh their best 1271 01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:40,240 Speaker 1: player out. Yeah, And honestly, Yukon they've kind of struggled, 1272 01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:42,439 Speaker 1: Braylon Bullen struggling a little bit, then found a shot 1273 01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:44,000 Speaker 1: there late for Yukon. 1274 01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:48,360 Speaker 4: I'll throw this in there as well, when you talk about, 1275 01:02:48,800 --> 01:02:50,720 Speaker 4: you know what Yukon has done. There another team that 1276 01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:53,600 Speaker 4: they're scary, man like, they get to this point, you 1277 01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:54,680 Speaker 4: just figure they're Yukon. 1278 01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:57,880 Speaker 1: That region, you have Duke and Saint John's. That's your 1279 01:02:57,960 --> 01:03:00,440 Speaker 1: top lap left of the bracket if you can picture 1280 01:03:00,560 --> 01:03:03,120 Speaker 1: that's in Washington, d C of Duke and Saint John's 1281 01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:06,880 Speaker 1: there in the top and then is Ogan's Hurley. Like, 1282 01:03:07,280 --> 01:03:08,960 Speaker 1: by the way, they said last night on the broadcast, 1283 01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:13,040 Speaker 1: there's a group text between Mick Cronin, Dan Hurley, Tom 1284 01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:17,720 Speaker 1: Izzo and Thad Manna that might meetables tame. Doesn't that 1285 01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:19,880 Speaker 1: seem like the outlier in that? I'm like, is that 1286 01:03:20,160 --> 01:03:22,880 Speaker 1: the mom of the that group text? You imagine Mick 1287 01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:25,760 Speaker 1: cronin Dan Hurley and then I mean is oken you 1288 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:27,000 Speaker 1: can you can get testy? 1289 01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:31,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, probably out of not say for these airwaves words 1290 01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:32,439 Speaker 4: being said in those group chats. 1291 01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:35,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's that's wise. All right, let's shift 1292 01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:37,680 Speaker 1: gears here. Coming up, I guess from a women's standpoint today, 1293 01:03:37,720 --> 01:03:39,720 Speaker 1: you've got notre name in Ohio State. That'll be four 1294 01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:43,520 Speaker 1: o'clock in around two. Neil Ivy in the Irish, Hanna 1295 01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:46,160 Speaker 1: Hidalgo was outstanding, one of the best in the country 1296 01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:48,520 Speaker 1: on the ball in round one, so we'll see if 1297 01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:52,160 Speaker 1: they can advance here to the sweet sixteen. Speaking of 1298 01:03:52,280 --> 01:03:55,360 Speaker 1: tournament action, James, for those that missed it, you watched 1299 01:03:55,360 --> 01:03:57,680 Speaker 1: the Mount Vernon team that is very grateful to have 1300 01:03:57,800 --> 01:03:58,280 Speaker 1: Luke Urdle. 1301 01:03:58,800 --> 01:04:01,480 Speaker 4: Yes, I'm very grateful with the don't have eyes, because 1302 01:04:01,480 --> 01:04:03,520 Speaker 4: he should have filed out of that game, and he didn't. 1303 01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:05,800 Speaker 1: Not walk us through that. There was like four minutes left, right, four. 1304 01:04:05,720 --> 01:04:07,760 Speaker 4: Minutes left in the game, they're up by four. He 1305 01:04:07,880 --> 01:04:09,800 Speaker 4: had picked up his fourth foul early in the third quarter. 1306 01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:13,400 Speaker 4: They were up maybe about eleven, and he subs out 1307 01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:16,000 Speaker 4: and they couldn't score. They couldn't even dribble without him, 1308 01:04:16,240 --> 01:04:19,120 Speaker 4: honestly past half court. New Albany goes on a crazy run, 1309 01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:22,360 Speaker 4: takes the lead. Erdle comes back in the game, hit 1310 01:04:22,480 --> 01:04:25,640 Speaker 4: some huge shots to put them back ahead, but as 1311 01:04:25,720 --> 01:04:27,520 Speaker 4: he gets the ball inbound it to him, they're pressing 1312 01:04:27,600 --> 01:04:30,760 Speaker 4: up on him. He swings his elbows and hits a 1313 01:04:30,800 --> 01:04:33,240 Speaker 4: kid in the face, and the kid like walks off 1314 01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:35,520 Speaker 4: the court. He might have been bleeding a little bit 1315 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:38,280 Speaker 4: because he got hitting the nose, and Ardle, knowing that 1316 01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:40,680 Speaker 4: should have been his fifth foul, like stopped for like 1317 01:04:40,880 --> 01:04:43,520 Speaker 4: half a second and looked back at him and like 1318 01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:46,040 Speaker 4: made this face like, Ooh, I know I'm gonna get 1319 01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:48,840 Speaker 4: like call out of this game. They don't call it. 1320 01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:52,080 Speaker 4: New Albny fans lose their mind, and Erdle stays in 1321 01:04:52,160 --> 01:04:54,440 Speaker 4: and they survive with him, And I do think had 1322 01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:57,200 Speaker 4: he been fouled out, they probably lose that game because 1323 01:04:57,240 --> 01:04:59,560 Speaker 4: they couldn't get a past half corp without him dribble 1324 01:04:59,600 --> 01:04:59,919 Speaker 4: in the basket. 1325 01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:03,320 Speaker 1: He had a triple double before the fourth foul, right, 1326 01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:05,600 Speaker 1: he had a triple double through three quarters, I believe. 1327 01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:07,840 Speaker 4: So, Yeah, he's one of the best rebounding book guards 1328 01:05:07,840 --> 01:05:10,880 Speaker 4: in the state. And his ability to just make big 1329 01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:13,400 Speaker 4: shots is uncanny. And I'm not gonna sit here and 1330 01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:15,480 Speaker 4: say like he isn't deserving of the moments go to state. 1331 01:05:15,880 --> 01:05:18,280 Speaker 4: They're a really good team. It's just that you didn't 1332 01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:21,400 Speaker 4: want it to be perhaps decided by something like that. 1333 01:05:22,240 --> 01:05:24,240 Speaker 4: But nevertheless, New alban he's a young team from what 1334 01:05:24,240 --> 01:05:26,760 Speaker 4: I understand, so they should have an opportunity to get 1335 01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:29,360 Speaker 4: back to that position here next year or the year after. 1336 01:05:29,560 --> 01:05:32,480 Speaker 4: But boy, great environment in Newcastle, a. 1337 01:05:32,600 --> 01:05:35,720 Speaker 1: Local flavor at Cathedral New Haven. Three A coming up 1338 01:05:35,760 --> 01:05:39,560 Speaker 1: Saturday night. Huge comeback by Jason m'laney and Keaton Aldrige 1339 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:42,120 Speaker 1: just bully ball there from a guard standpoint as they 1340 01:05:42,240 --> 01:05:45,600 Speaker 1: upset number one Silver Creak in three A and then 1341 01:05:45,640 --> 01:05:48,160 Speaker 1: the four A state championship game will be crown point 1342 01:05:48,720 --> 01:05:51,080 Speaker 1: against Mount Vernon. That is a rematch of the Hall 1343 01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:55,480 Speaker 1: of Fame classic that Crown point one earlier this year. 1344 01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:58,360 Speaker 1: All right, Pacers back in action tonight. They've got the magic. 1345 01:05:58,440 --> 01:06:02,320 Speaker 1: They continue to lose and lose. Notably, that'll be a 1346 01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:05,680 Speaker 1: seven o'clock tip in that one. From a home game standpoint, 1347 01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:10,120 Speaker 1: you will get Lakers Clippers Wednesday Friday, so obviously some 1348 01:06:10,280 --> 01:06:13,480 Speaker 1: notable visiting players in the building. We'll see about Benedic Matheren. 1349 01:06:13,520 --> 01:06:16,240 Speaker 1: He has been nursing that toe injury is missed I 1350 01:06:16,280 --> 01:06:18,440 Speaker 1: think the last three or four games for the Clippers. There, 1351 01:06:19,120 --> 01:06:21,240 Speaker 1: but the Pacers news from over the weekend and James, 1352 01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:24,320 Speaker 1: this is more like Friday around lunchtime, right after we 1353 01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:27,600 Speaker 1: signed off a Vita Zubats out for the rest of 1354 01:06:27,640 --> 01:06:30,480 Speaker 1: the year. What officially broken rib? Fractured rib? Got a 1355 01:06:30,520 --> 01:06:33,080 Speaker 1: fractured rib? I mean, what the hell? 1356 01:06:33,880 --> 01:06:34,120 Speaker 8: I know? 1357 01:06:34,720 --> 01:06:38,400 Speaker 4: So his Pacers season ends with just five games played, 1358 01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:41,000 Speaker 4: and honestly, to the Pacers' credit, he probably would have 1359 01:06:41,040 --> 01:06:42,919 Speaker 4: played more. Yeah, I been playing more, playing the second 1360 01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:43,640 Speaker 4: night of a back to back. 1361 01:06:43,720 --> 01:06:45,840 Speaker 1: Well, I assume we were about to get you know, 1362 01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:48,040 Speaker 1: if you look at Saturday at the Spurs, depending on 1363 01:06:48,120 --> 01:06:50,320 Speaker 1: Zubats's health. Of course, we were about to get him 1364 01:06:50,320 --> 01:06:53,520 Speaker 1: and Siakam for the first time. Yeah, Siakam played Saturday 1365 01:06:53,600 --> 01:06:55,840 Speaker 1: night down there in San Antonio as the Pacers lost 1366 01:06:55,840 --> 01:06:58,840 Speaker 1: another one there, so about three weeks left here in 1367 01:06:58,880 --> 01:07:01,840 Speaker 1: the Pacers regular season. Really, the only other thing I 1368 01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:04,760 Speaker 1: had is Michael Jordan and Tyler Reddick continue to win 1369 01:07:04,800 --> 01:07:08,920 Speaker 1: a NASCAR Yeah, mj is someone no crying memes right 1370 01:07:09,080 --> 01:07:10,240 Speaker 1: in NASCAR for Michael Jordan? 1371 01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:12,160 Speaker 4: No, no, although it is one of the greatest memes 1372 01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:14,320 Speaker 4: ever along with bleep those kids. 1373 01:07:14,440 --> 01:07:18,080 Speaker 1: Is Schubert Davis getting fired today? 1374 01:07:19,120 --> 01:07:19,240 Speaker 3: Oh? 1375 01:07:21,480 --> 01:07:24,160 Speaker 4: The Duke fan on our show?

That didn't happen. 1381 01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:35,440 Speaker 1: They did, but long run. Come on, we know, we 1382 01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:37,040 Speaker 1: know now letting you know I didn't. 1383 01:07:37,080 --> 01:07:39,760 Speaker 4: Did Herbie give coach k al in his final game 1384 01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:41,240 Speaker 4: some of the that's why it should be. 1385 01:07:41,240 --> 01:07:43,840 Speaker 1: A life have a lifetime contract, James, keep them. 1386 01:07:43,880 --> 01:07:44,080 Speaker 8: Come on. 1387 01:07:44,320 --> 01:07:45,800 Speaker 1: I know a lot of people were drawing to some 1388 01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:48,240 Speaker 1: of the postgame comments last night from Bill's self, and 1389 01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:50,800 Speaker 1: you know, health would probably be the biggest season. Why 1390 01:07:50,880 --> 01:07:53,120 Speaker 1: Bill self would hang it up? Could you imagine in 1391 01:07:53,120 --> 01:07:54,960 Speaker 1: the next forty eight hours if we had North Carolina 1392 01:07:54,960 --> 01:07:56,080 Speaker 1: and Kansas get open. 1393 01:07:56,880 --> 01:07:59,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I might put my application in like the Fisher's job. 1394 01:07:59,200 --> 01:08:02,560 Speaker 5: Big Blue Nation is also not happy with Mark Pope, right, 1395 01:08:02,880 --> 01:08:04,680 Speaker 5: I mean, that's probably not gonna happen. 1396 01:08:04,880 --> 01:08:06,160 Speaker 4: But you can't be mad at the Pope though that 1397 01:08:06,320 --> 01:08:09,600 Speaker 4: that's just well, it was funny when that shot goes in. 1398 01:08:09,680 --> 01:08:11,240 Speaker 1: By oh way, there are a lot of fans, Like 1399 01:08:11,320 --> 01:08:13,640 Speaker 1: I live next door to a diehard Kentucky fan and 1400 01:08:13,760 --> 01:08:15,640 Speaker 1: you know, him and I were chatting Friday afternoon, like 1401 01:08:16,120 --> 01:08:18,519 Speaker 1: what that shot just did from Mark Pope. Now again 1402 01:08:18,640 --> 01:08:21,160 Speaker 1: forty eight hours later, you lose Iowa State. But but 1403 01:08:21,320 --> 01:08:23,559 Speaker 1: you know that's not like losing Santa Clara right right 1404 01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:26,840 Speaker 1: in round one there. So yeah, I don't know what 1405 01:08:27,040 --> 01:08:29,479 Speaker 1: the dominoes would look like because like if I said, 1406 01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:31,160 Speaker 1: you said to you right now, who the next coach 1407 01:08:31,200 --> 01:08:33,559 Speaker 1: would be North Carolina? Who's the next coach of Kansas? 1408 01:08:33,680 --> 01:08:36,880 Speaker 1: Like I don't think there's any obvious answer, like is 1409 01:08:37,400 --> 01:08:40,240 Speaker 1: Josh Shirt's getting a call for these places? Like where 1410 01:08:40,280 --> 01:08:43,479 Speaker 1: are you going? Like we don't really have necessarily the 1411 01:08:43,600 --> 01:08:47,000 Speaker 1: kind of young. You know, Dusty may has found a home. 1412 01:08:47,080 --> 01:08:48,960 Speaker 1: You know, he was obviously the talk of college of 1413 01:08:48,960 --> 01:08:51,840 Speaker 1: basketball a couple of years ago. In that so it 1414 01:08:51,920 --> 01:08:54,599 Speaker 1: could be very interesting from a college basketball head coaching Domino, 1415 01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:54,880 Speaker 1: I do. 1416 01:08:54,960 --> 01:08:57,200 Speaker 4: Want to mention this real quick shout out to Maya 1417 01:08:57,240 --> 01:09:01,479 Speaker 4: Epstey Homestead High school star Loouis'll commit.

Your favorite moment so far through 1444 01:10:16,600 --> 01:10:17,840 Speaker 1: two rounds of the tournament is what. 1445 01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:24,120 Speaker 8: Well, there are a lot of great moments, so many 1446 01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:29,680 Speaker 8: The thing that what frosts me usually when I get 1447 01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:33,080 Speaker 8: to this point in the tournament, I'm mostly as much 1448 01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:36,479 Speaker 8: as I've enjoyed the moments through the tournament, I'm mostly 1449 01:10:36,680 --> 01:10:43,040 Speaker 8: really weary of hearing people complain about whatever the NCAA 1450 01:10:43,160 --> 01:10:47,839 Speaker 8: tournament happens to give us, because they are always the loudest. 1451 01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:52,720 Speaker 8: This year, the complaint is no Cinderella, and a couple 1452 01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:54,800 Speaker 8: of years back it might have been well, the teams 1453 01:10:54,800 --> 01:10:56,400 Speaker 8: aren't as good as they used to be in nineteen 1454 01:10:56,479 --> 01:10:59,040 Speaker 8: ninety two, and it's like, well, you give them better 1455 01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:02,479 Speaker 8: teams and now they're again, and so it does get 1456 01:11:02,520 --> 01:11:05,280 Speaker 8: a little bit weary. So of the the idea I 1457 01:11:05,360 --> 01:11:08,840 Speaker 8: get from people, now Utah State was shouldn't have been 1458 01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:10,960 Speaker 8: a nine seed. Okay, they should have been an eight seed. 1459 01:11:11,000 --> 01:11:13,600 Speaker 8: You're right, my bracket would have scored higher. But what 1460 01:11:13,760 --> 01:11:16,920 Speaker 8: difference does that make. They're still playing in the same game. No, no, 1461 01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:19,000 Speaker 8: they should have been a seven. Well why they got 1462 01:11:19,120 --> 01:11:25,000 Speaker 8: swept by UNLV, Like we forget all this stuff. Maybe 1463 01:11:25,040 --> 01:11:28,160 Speaker 8: I'm just spending too much time on Twitter, but there 1464 01:11:28,200 --> 01:11:32,080 Speaker 8: were some tremendous moments, I suppose, because it's most recent 1465 01:11:32,160 --> 01:11:37,760 Speaker 8: in my mind, freshest the Alvaro Fargaris three pointer, which 1466 01:11:38,240 --> 01:11:43,160 Speaker 8: was beautifully designed, and in all honesty, I still don't 1467 01:11:43,240 --> 01:11:45,880 Speaker 8: know what on earth Florida was trying to accomplish on 1468 01:11:45,960 --> 01:11:51,160 Speaker 8: that last possession. I mean they were according to their 1469 01:11:51,240 --> 01:11:55,000 Speaker 8: postgame discussion, and see this is where coaches think they're 1470 01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:59,360 Speaker 8: smarter than the game, right. According to the post game discussion, 1471 01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:04,479 Speaker 8: they were planning to foul deliberately so that they could 1472 01:12:04,520 --> 01:12:08,599 Speaker 8: get the ball back and concoct a winning score rather 1473 01:12:08,840 --> 01:12:12,280 Speaker 8: than than just play out the defense and try to 1474 01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:15,679 Speaker 8: prevent them from scoring and winning that way. I don't 1475 01:12:15,760 --> 01:12:19,720 Speaker 8: get that, Mike, that's John Harbaugh trying to prove he's 1476 01:12:19,760 --> 01:12:21,560 Speaker 8: the smartest person in the room. I mean, that's what 1477 01:12:21,680 --> 01:12:25,280 Speaker 8: it is, uh, you know? Or Dan Campbell saying, well, 1478 01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:27,400 Speaker 8: our brand is going for it and well you're not 1479 01:12:27,439 --> 01:12:29,720 Speaker 8: in the super Bowl any longer because you go for it. 1480 01:12:30,439 --> 01:12:31,720 Speaker 8: That it's just ridiculous. 1481 01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:35,200 Speaker 1: Is that the thing that teams do? Did I miss 1482 01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:36,000 Speaker 1: it before? 1483 01:12:36,120 --> 01:12:39,880 Speaker 8: But I've never seen it before. But the the the 1484 01:12:40,120 --> 01:12:43,840 Speaker 8: modern coaches into analytics, and that's there must have been 1485 01:12:43,880 --> 01:12:46,000 Speaker 8: some math problem that said that's a way to win. 1486 01:12:46,080 --> 01:12:49,000 Speaker 8: And hey, like it does give you a chance to 1487 01:12:49,240 --> 01:12:52,599 Speaker 8: not be at the whim of the defense, but here's 1488 01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:56,200 Speaker 8: a better chance. Don't dive on any penetration if that's 1489 01:12:56,240 --> 01:12:58,559 Speaker 8: your goal is you're like, we're okay with a two, 1490 01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:01,200 Speaker 8: but we're not okay with the three and will beat 1491 01:13:01,280 --> 01:13:03,920 Speaker 8: him in overtime. But what they're really saying is if 1492 01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:06,680 Speaker 8: we if we fil quickly, then we can have a 1493 01:13:06,840 --> 01:13:08,960 Speaker 8: chance to get back and score for I don't think 1494 01:13:08,960 --> 01:13:12,200 Speaker 8: there was enough time for that anyway. But the reality 1495 01:13:12,360 --> 01:13:14,640 Speaker 8: is that's just not an approach to win. And the 1496 01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:18,040 Speaker 8: fact they kept that pressure up by the time bennett'ster's 1497 01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:21,880 Speaker 8: caught the ball, there were three Floorida defenders who were 1498 01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:25,160 Speaker 8: done in that in that play, they were done. They 1499 01:13:25,160 --> 01:13:27,720 Speaker 8: could have just gone and gotten popcorn because he was 1500 01:13:27,840 --> 01:13:31,439 Speaker 8: beyond all of them. And so it was basically the 1501 01:13:31,560 --> 01:13:35,560 Speaker 8: ball against two defenders, and both of them were positioned 1502 01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:39,240 Speaker 8: closer to the lane. Therefore, Valgaris had all the room 1503 01:13:39,280 --> 01:13:40,960 Speaker 8: in the world to make or miss the shot on 1504 01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:43,320 Speaker 8: his own. Now, there's a lot of pressure in that situation, 1505 01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:45,920 Speaker 8: and he's got to block all that out, and there's 1506 01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:48,759 Speaker 8: no guarantee that SHOT's going to drop. But a wide 1507 01:13:48,800 --> 01:13:52,480 Speaker 8: open three pointer is a lot higher percent higher percentage 1508 01:13:52,720 --> 01:13:56,040 Speaker 8: shot than a challenge three pointer. It's a lot higher 1509 01:13:56,120 --> 01:13:59,280 Speaker 8: percentage shot than a three pointer launched because with a 1510 01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:02,200 Speaker 8: defender directly in your space and not just somebody closing 1511 01:14:02,280 --> 01:14:05,000 Speaker 8: on you, and he was as open as you could 1512 01:14:05,080 --> 01:14:08,439 Speaker 8: possibly be in a college basketball game in twenty twenty six. 1513 01:14:09,320 --> 01:14:11,920 Speaker 4: Well, Mike, I'll let you know, when you become a 1514 01:14:11,960 --> 01:14:15,439 Speaker 4: head coach, you could decide these things. I'm chugging, but 1515 01:14:16,120 --> 01:14:18,160 Speaker 4: when I do want to pivot a little bit away 1516 01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:21,640 Speaker 4: from the chaos that was that Iowa Florida finished to 1517 01:14:21,840 --> 01:14:26,160 Speaker 4: Purdue and Braiden Smith did not have a very Braiden 1518 01:14:26,200 --> 01:14:29,240 Speaker 4: Smith asque performance. I thought against Miami, But what did 1519 01:14:29,280 --> 01:14:31,240 Speaker 4: you think of the way in which Purdue advanced? I 1520 01:14:31,240 --> 01:14:32,800 Speaker 4: want to do the first RUMs with the second round 1521 01:14:33,080 --> 01:14:34,759 Speaker 4: to get to their third straight Sweet sixteen. 1522 01:14:36,479 --> 01:14:37,160 Speaker 3: Well, I thought. 1523 01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:41,120 Speaker 8: Purdue played very well. I thought that that that they 1524 01:14:41,240 --> 01:14:43,680 Speaker 8: needed to do. They got done what they needed to do. 1525 01:14:44,960 --> 01:14:48,400 Speaker 8: And I don't understand what you meant by that comment 1526 01:14:48,479 --> 01:14:50,639 Speaker 8: about when I get to be a coach. I don't understand. 1527 01:14:50,760 --> 01:14:52,439 Speaker 4: Oh no, no, I was just joking about you know, 1528 01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:55,160 Speaker 4: when you know you're criticizing the coaching, and when you 1529 01:14:55,280 --> 01:14:57,160 Speaker 4: become a coach, you can decide which I would have. 1530 01:14:57,200 --> 01:14:59,439 Speaker 4: I would have loved to have you. No, and I'm 1531 01:14:59,439 --> 01:15:01,479 Speaker 4: saying I would have have you as a Florida coach. 1532 01:15:02,080 --> 01:15:02,840 Speaker 4: Said again, you. 1533 01:15:02,880 --> 01:15:04,720 Speaker 8: Asked me my opinion about the game. I gave it. 1534 01:15:05,080 --> 01:15:07,479 Speaker 4: Oh no, no, I was joking, Mike. It wasn't serious 1535 01:15:07,520 --> 01:15:09,679 Speaker 4: at all. I was joking and saying that I would 1536 01:15:09,680 --> 01:15:11,800 Speaker 4: have preferred to have you as the coach, is what 1537 01:15:11,840 --> 01:15:14,880 Speaker 4: I'm saying. I see yeah, yeah, yeah, that didn't mean 1538 01:15:14,920 --> 01:15:16,880 Speaker 4: it as a shot. I mean, if you were to Florida, coach, 1539 01:15:16,920 --> 01:15:17,920 Speaker 4: would we'd be winning the game? 1540 01:15:19,120 --> 01:15:23,880 Speaker 8: I appreciate that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Okay, I thought Florida play. 1541 01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:24,439 Speaker 4: I excuse me. 1542 01:15:24,479 --> 01:15:26,439 Speaker 8: I thought for Due played really well. I thought that 1543 01:15:27,240 --> 01:15:31,920 Speaker 8: in this circumstance, Uh, it's about getting through. Uh it wasn't. 1544 01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:34,720 Speaker 8: It wasn't a perfect Purdue performance, but where where it 1545 01:15:34,840 --> 01:15:37,120 Speaker 8: was really good was at the defensive end. 1546 01:15:37,680 --> 01:15:37,760 Speaker 5: Uh. 1547 01:15:37,880 --> 01:15:41,120 Speaker 8: They gave up one point five points per possession, and 1548 01:15:41,280 --> 01:15:45,160 Speaker 8: that's not exactly what their average is. That they're a 1549 01:15:45,240 --> 01:15:48,160 Speaker 8: little better than that, but they're not elite at that 1550 01:15:48,360 --> 01:15:50,880 Speaker 8: end of the floor. And when you go one point 1551 01:15:51,120 --> 01:15:55,000 Speaker 8: five in an NCAA tournament game, you're you're probably going 1552 01:15:55,080 --> 01:15:59,640 Speaker 8: to win, unless you're playing against the let's say what 1553 01:16:00,240 --> 01:16:02,880 Speaker 8: the ninety six Kentucky Wildcats are probably doing better than 1554 01:16:02,920 --> 01:16:07,000 Speaker 8: that against you. But if you're doing that, you've got 1555 01:16:07,040 --> 01:16:09,920 Speaker 8: a shot to win. And that's what Purdue needs to 1556 01:16:10,040 --> 01:16:14,120 Speaker 8: be in order to be successful, because their offense is 1557 01:16:14,400 --> 01:16:17,479 Speaker 8: really high end, and they moved the basketball so well, 1558 01:16:17,560 --> 01:16:20,880 Speaker 8: and they've got scorers at so many a variety of 1559 01:16:20,960 --> 01:16:24,559 Speaker 8: different levels. I thought braiden forced a couple of shots 1560 01:16:25,320 --> 01:16:29,360 Speaker 8: in various circumstances, but for the most part, ran the 1561 01:16:29,439 --> 01:16:32,800 Speaker 8: team the way he needed to. When you get to 1562 01:16:32,880 --> 01:16:36,160 Speaker 8: one of eight and you're Braden Smith, you probably got 1563 01:16:36,280 --> 01:16:39,320 Speaker 8: to know that that's not the ideal approach for you 1564 01:16:39,439 --> 01:16:41,320 Speaker 8: in that particular game. And there was a point in 1565 01:16:41,360 --> 01:16:43,320 Speaker 8: the game where he got to one of eight, and 1566 01:16:43,680 --> 01:16:49,080 Speaker 8: from there his shot attempts became higher quality. He didn't say, Okay, 1567 01:16:49,160 --> 01:16:51,200 Speaker 8: this is good enough. He said, we can do better. 1568 01:16:51,280 --> 01:16:53,519 Speaker 8: It may be me, but if it's me, it's going 1569 01:16:53,600 --> 01:16:55,960 Speaker 8: to be a better shot. And down the stretch it 1570 01:16:56,040 --> 01:16:56,640 Speaker 8: certainly was. 1571 01:16:57,240 --> 01:16:59,000 Speaker 1: And Mike, of course you with the serier Sporting News 1572 01:16:59,040 --> 01:17:02,479 Speaker 1: Big ten network where you can find some of his work. Mike, 1573 01:17:02,720 --> 01:17:05,680 Speaker 1: I guess two years of maybe major nil evidence to 1574 01:17:05,760 --> 01:17:08,080 Speaker 1: go off of. Last year, the highest seed left of 1575 01:17:08,080 --> 01:17:11,120 Speaker 1: the Sweet sixteen was John cal Perry in Arkansas. This 1576 01:17:11,280 --> 01:17:14,400 Speaker 1: year it's Sean Miller in Texas. I would venture to 1577 01:17:14,400 --> 01:17:18,040 Speaker 1: guess those nil budgets are rather robust at both of 1578 01:17:18,120 --> 01:17:22,920 Speaker 1: those two schools. Is Cinderella dead? I know that's kind 1579 01:17:22,920 --> 01:17:25,880 Speaker 1: of an aggressive way to put it. High point certainly 1580 01:17:26,040 --> 01:17:28,200 Speaker 1: was very close to making some noise there in the 1581 01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:30,040 Speaker 1: Sweet sixteen. But I don't know how do you kind 1582 01:17:30,040 --> 01:17:33,600 Speaker 1: of view the double digit seed the little bit of 1583 01:17:33,680 --> 01:17:37,080 Speaker 1: the Cinderella story now moving forward, I. 1584 01:17:37,120 --> 01:17:39,160 Speaker 8: Think there are a lot of different reasons for why 1585 01:17:39,240 --> 01:17:43,720 Speaker 8: we are where we are, and one of the things 1586 01:17:43,760 --> 01:17:46,400 Speaker 8: that we have to remember is that Cinderella is in 1587 01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:49,280 Speaker 8: the palace in a lot of cases. Now right there 1588 01:17:49,320 --> 01:17:52,960 Speaker 8: in Indy, who is the biggest Cinderella of all time 1589 01:17:53,040 --> 01:17:57,040 Speaker 8: in college basketball? Butler makes consecutive final fours and is 1590 01:17:57,160 --> 01:18:01,439 Speaker 8: one literally one inch from winning a national championship at 1591 01:18:01,479 --> 01:18:04,559 Speaker 8: twenty ten, and they're now in the palace. They are 1592 01:18:04,640 --> 01:18:06,800 Speaker 8: in the Big East Conference. It's one of the five 1593 01:18:06,920 --> 01:18:10,720 Speaker 8: biggest basketball conferences in America. And that's true all over 1594 01:18:10,880 --> 01:18:15,439 Speaker 8: college basketball. You see a lot of teams. Gonzaga certainly 1595 01:18:15,520 --> 01:18:19,479 Speaker 8: went from being a mid major darling in nineteen ninety 1596 01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:21,960 Speaker 8: nine two thousand and one to being one of the 1597 01:18:22,040 --> 01:18:26,479 Speaker 8: strongest powers in college basketball now. So the fact that 1598 01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:30,960 Speaker 8: so many teams have been invited into that sphere does 1599 01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:37,800 Speaker 8: limit the ability of the quote Cinderella to be at 1600 01:18:37,880 --> 01:18:42,160 Speaker 8: the ball. There are fewer teams in that category now. 1601 01:18:42,200 --> 01:18:44,800 Speaker 8: There are still as many teams. There are more teams 1602 01:18:44,800 --> 01:18:47,679 Speaker 8: than there ever were but they're all coming from Division 1603 01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:51,360 Speaker 8: two with limited resources and really just the dream of 1604 01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:54,320 Speaker 8: getting into the tournament and maybe, if everything goes right, 1605 01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:58,040 Speaker 8: winning one game. But there are very few that are 1606 01:18:58,080 --> 01:19:01,280 Speaker 8: out there that have the capacity to win multiple games 1607 01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:05,080 Speaker 8: because a huge chunk of the ones that did are 1608 01:19:05,200 --> 01:19:08,840 Speaker 8: now part of the establishment and so and and they're 1609 01:19:09,400 --> 01:19:12,400 Speaker 8: in some of those cases they're struggling as part of 1610 01:19:12,439 --> 01:19:16,240 Speaker 8: the establishment, but they're still inside. And that's that's part 1611 01:19:16,320 --> 01:19:17,360 Speaker 8: of why we are. 1612 01:19:17,320 --> 01:19:17,880 Speaker 3: Where we are. 1613 01:19:18,320 --> 01:19:21,400 Speaker 8: Another part of it is that the Committee used to 1614 01:19:21,479 --> 01:19:24,719 Speaker 8: get seeds wrong all the time because they're the tools 1615 01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:28,120 Speaker 8: with which they worked were awful. They had very poor 1616 01:19:28,280 --> 01:19:32,960 Speaker 8: data and very poor opportunity to understand what what made 1617 01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:35,360 Speaker 8: the difference between a really good, nice team and a 1618 01:19:35,439 --> 01:19:39,720 Speaker 8: nice season and somebody that was really dangerous. That doesn't happen. Now, 1619 01:19:40,240 --> 01:19:43,959 Speaker 8: the Committee gets the seeds right in almost every occasion. 1620 01:19:44,600 --> 01:19:47,120 Speaker 8: The closest thing they had to a miss seed this 1621 01:19:47,320 --> 01:19:51,240 Speaker 8: year was Virginia, and there were reasons why they were 1622 01:19:51,320 --> 01:19:53,280 Speaker 8: on the three line. It was just so obvious they 1623 01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:56,960 Speaker 8: didn't along because of the nature of their season, but 1624 01:19:57,040 --> 01:19:59,920 Speaker 8: there were but there was no clear candidate to say 1625 01:20:00,280 --> 01:20:03,559 Speaker 8: they absolutely should have been a three, and Virginia shouldn't 1626 01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:06,160 Speaker 8: have been. It could have been Nebraska, it could have 1627 01:20:06,240 --> 01:20:10,439 Speaker 8: been it could have been let's say, Alabama. But none 1628 01:20:10,479 --> 01:20:13,719 Speaker 8: of those teams had exactly the qualifications for that last 1629 01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:17,000 Speaker 8: three set anyway, So you don't see you don't see 1630 01:20:17,120 --> 01:20:21,720 Speaker 8: as many opportunities for these lower seeded teams to win 1631 01:20:22,000 --> 01:20:25,000 Speaker 8: because they're usually seated about where they should be, and 1632 01:20:25,120 --> 01:20:27,479 Speaker 8: the teams that are above them are usually seated where 1633 01:20:27,560 --> 01:20:30,520 Speaker 8: they should be, so they don't there's not a vulnerability 1634 01:20:30,600 --> 01:20:31,639 Speaker 8: there for them to pick off. 1635 01:20:33,120 --> 01:20:36,720 Speaker 1: Iowa was nine again, Texas there as you're eleven? 1636 01:20:38,040 --> 01:20:38,360 Speaker 7: Is that it? 1637 01:20:38,560 --> 01:20:40,960 Speaker 1: I feel like, I guess Tennessee if you want to 1638 01:20:40,960 --> 01:20:42,679 Speaker 1: look at it there from a six stand point, although 1639 01:20:42,680 --> 01:20:44,920 Speaker 1: a lot of people thought Tennessee and Virginia. That was 1640 01:20:44,960 --> 01:20:48,599 Speaker 1: probably Tennessee in that one. Mike, of course, again Sporty News, 1641 01:20:48,640 --> 01:20:50,720 Speaker 1: Big ten Network, where you can find his work. We'll 1642 01:20:50,760 --> 01:20:53,240 Speaker 1: get things started. Purdue in Texas coming up Thursday out 1643 01:20:53,240 --> 01:20:56,679 Speaker 1: there in San Jose. Mike, Thank you man, Thanks guys, 1644 01:20:56,800 --> 01:20:59,360 Speaker 1: Thanks Mike. Mike de Coursi right there on the Payless 1645 01:20:59,479 --> 01:21:02,400 Speaker 1: Liquors line. Fifteen minutes from now. Voice of the Boilers, 1646 01:21:02,479 --> 01:21:04,240 Speaker 1: Rob Blackman he's going to join us here at top 1647 01:21:04,280 --> 01:21:06,880 Speaker 1: of the nine o'clock hour. Rob Blackman gonna join us 1648 01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:10,160 Speaker 1: here in ten. It'll be a quick turnaround for Perdue, 1649 01:21:10,200 --> 01:21:14,160 Speaker 1: I would assume from a travel standpoint. Open practice Wednesday 1650 01:21:14,240 --> 01:21:16,120 Speaker 1: out there San Jose, I guess they're going back to 1651 01:21:16,200 --> 01:21:19,880 Speaker 1: back hockey arenas Saint Louis and then out there in 1652 01:21:20,080 --> 01:21:23,360 Speaker 1: San Jose they are the first game and announced late 1653 01:21:23,439 --> 01:21:25,080 Speaker 1: last night they will be the first game coming up 1654 01:21:25,120 --> 01:21:28,240 Speaker 1: on Thursday. So it's four to ten out west. Most 1655 01:21:28,280 --> 01:21:32,559 Speaker 1: importantly for our audience seven ten Eastern here, they are 1656 01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:37,960 Speaker 1: the CBS game coming up Thursday night. Perdue and Texas there, 1657 01:21:38,040 --> 01:21:41,439 Speaker 1: Kevin bow and James Boyd, Caleb Zuver here on a Monday, 1658 01:21:41,439 --> 01:21:43,519 Speaker 1: and again Rod Blackman joined us in a few Yeah. 1659 01:21:43,560 --> 01:21:45,479 Speaker 4: I want to say this real quick for those listening, 1660 01:21:45,640 --> 01:21:49,200 Speaker 4: and I'll apologize to Mike Decorsi separately. But I was 1661 01:21:49,320 --> 01:21:52,280 Speaker 4: being sarcastic when I made the comment about him not 1662 01:21:52,400 --> 01:21:54,559 Speaker 4: being the coach of Florida whatever. It was not meant 1663 01:21:54,600 --> 01:21:56,400 Speaker 4: as a shot towards Mike or what he does for 1664 01:21:56,479 --> 01:21:58,760 Speaker 4: our show and his coverage at all. Just to make 1665 01:21:58,800 --> 01:22:00,840 Speaker 4: that very clear, I was being our castic trolling a 1666 01:22:00,880 --> 01:22:02,760 Speaker 4: little bit, probably at the best time to do that, 1667 01:22:02,840 --> 01:22:04,760 Speaker 4: and knowing that Mike has lot on his plate as well. 1668 01:22:04,840 --> 01:22:05,519 Speaker 1: So I own that one. 1669 01:22:05,600 --> 01:22:07,640 Speaker 4: Don't bat a thousand here on these airways, but I 1670 01:22:07,680 --> 01:22:09,120 Speaker 4: do want to make that very clear that it was 1671 01:22:09,200 --> 01:22:12,680 Speaker 4: not personal or meant to be rooting anyway. So the 1672 01:22:12,800 --> 01:22:15,200 Speaker 4: James Boyd snark, I know it got me, man, it 1673 01:22:15,280 --> 01:22:15,560 Speaker 4: bit me. 1674 01:22:15,800 --> 01:22:17,240 Speaker 1: Been on the receiving end of that one. 1675 01:22:18,120 --> 01:22:19,840 Speaker 4: I know, I know, and I'm thinking to myself, and 1676 01:22:19,880 --> 01:22:21,479 Speaker 4: I got to go with the dunce had on and 1677 01:22:21,520 --> 01:22:22,640 Speaker 4: stand in the corner a little bit. 1678 01:22:22,760 --> 01:22:25,760 Speaker 1: So go buy buy my Mike to Coursey lunch. After that, 1679 01:22:25,920 --> 01:22:29,360 Speaker 1: I might, you know, a little clutch truck action. No, 1680 01:22:29,479 --> 01:22:30,800 Speaker 1: I don't, don't think you need to do that, but 1681 01:22:30,880 --> 01:22:33,560 Speaker 1: James very stand up from you again, Rob Blackman, go 1682 01:22:33,680 --> 01:22:35,880 Speaker 1: to join us here in a few I did want 1683 01:22:35,880 --> 01:22:38,160 Speaker 1: to play this Fletcher Lawyer clip in full, Caleb, if 1684 01:22:38,240 --> 01:22:43,080 Speaker 1: you have a cube this up, because I guess we 1685 01:22:43,200 --> 01:22:46,040 Speaker 1: get in some serious debate about like why. But I 1686 01:22:46,080 --> 01:22:48,520 Speaker 1: feel like Fletcher Lawyer is one of the more criticized 1687 01:22:49,439 --> 01:22:52,840 Speaker 1: great players that for new programs ever had. I mean, 1688 01:22:52,880 --> 01:22:54,920 Speaker 1: this is the guy that's gonna finish what top fifteen 1689 01:22:54,920 --> 01:22:57,559 Speaker 1: all time and points scored. He's the greatest three point 1690 01:22:57,720 --> 01:23:04,160 Speaker 1: shooter in the history of the program. And I just 1691 01:23:04,200 --> 01:23:07,040 Speaker 1: think it's very fitting that in the most critical juncture 1692 01:23:07,120 --> 01:23:09,800 Speaker 1: of these seniors, right off in the sunset, he's been 1693 01:23:09,880 --> 01:23:12,560 Speaker 1: their most consistent player. Now for the past month and 1694 01:23:12,640 --> 01:23:15,479 Speaker 1: a half, it hasn't been perfect for Purdue, clearly, and 1695 01:23:15,640 --> 01:23:18,720 Speaker 1: yet it's been Lawyer that has shot the ball outstandingly. 1696 01:23:18,840 --> 01:23:21,280 Speaker 1: And you know, as Matt Painter typically does, he usually 1697 01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:23,080 Speaker 1: points out some other things that maybe don't stand out 1698 01:23:23,439 --> 01:23:25,599 Speaker 1: to a lot of people in what a player does 1699 01:23:25,680 --> 01:23:28,200 Speaker 1: for an impact standpoint. This is Matt Paynter post game 1700 01:23:28,320 --> 01:23:30,760 Speaker 1: yesterday on what Fletcher Lawyer has meant. 1701 01:23:31,120 --> 01:23:33,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, he does a lot of intangibles. There's a lot 1702 01:23:33,080 --> 01:23:35,160 Speaker 2: of little things. A lot of times coaches just kind 1703 01:23:35,200 --> 01:23:36,840 Speaker 2: of look at the meat and potatoes a thing they 1704 01:23:36,880 --> 01:23:39,439 Speaker 2: don't understand, like the little pieces that he helps, like 1705 01:23:39,520 --> 01:23:41,640 Speaker 2: he takes the ball out of bounce. He's a good postfeeder, 1706 01:23:42,479 --> 01:23:47,120 Speaker 2: he understands scouting reports, could communicator, could a leader. Obviously, 1707 01:23:47,120 --> 01:23:50,280 Speaker 2: he's a great shooter. He's a great basketball player, and 1708 01:23:50,680 --> 01:23:52,479 Speaker 2: so there's just a lot of things. I think it's 1709 01:23:52,920 --> 01:23:54,760 Speaker 2: you know, you look at those guys as minutes, you know, 1710 01:23:54,800 --> 01:23:57,120 Speaker 2: you look at tk's minutes along with Fletch and Braiden, 1711 01:23:57,160 --> 01:23:59,439 Speaker 2: and it's it's their time. You know what I mean, 1712 01:23:59,479 --> 01:24:01,080 Speaker 2: it is it is their time. It doesn't mean we're 1713 01:24:01,360 --> 01:24:03,720 Speaker 2: not going to sub them out here and there, but 1714 01:24:03,800 --> 01:24:05,240 Speaker 2: it just made a whole lot of sense not to 1715 01:24:05,320 --> 01:24:07,320 Speaker 2: take him out. You know, CJ going out. We tried 1716 01:24:07,320 --> 01:24:08,760 Speaker 2: to give him a break there in the middle, but 1717 01:24:09,960 --> 01:24:11,640 Speaker 2: you know, he's just too valuable for us to take 1718 01:24:11,680 --> 01:24:12,320 Speaker 2: out in this game. 1719 01:24:12,960 --> 01:24:16,320 Speaker 1: You know, when when Painter said that yesterday postgame, James, 1720 01:24:16,360 --> 01:24:19,479 Speaker 1: I kind of thought back to the Nebraska game, the 1721 01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:23,360 Speaker 1: first Nebraska game this past season. When you're in Lincoln, 1722 01:24:23,479 --> 01:24:26,479 Speaker 1: you're in what I mean, hell, if you watch Nebraska 1723 01:24:26,520 --> 01:24:29,920 Speaker 1: play NCAA tournament games, you know what the environment looks 1724 01:24:30,040 --> 01:24:31,599 Speaker 1: like for them as all of a sudden, they're kind 1725 01:24:31,600 --> 01:24:35,000 Speaker 1: of having an IU football type of season. And you know, 1726 01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:38,960 Speaker 1: that final possession at Nebraska, for those that remember it, 1727 01:24:39,080 --> 01:24:42,680 Speaker 1: it was very chaotic possession. Perdue wasn't getting necessarily the 1728 01:24:42,760 --> 01:24:45,679 Speaker 1: great great look and Lawyer almost kind of got stuck 1729 01:24:45,800 --> 01:24:48,639 Speaker 1: with it, you know, kind of that awkward like twelve 1730 01:24:48,680 --> 01:24:51,400 Speaker 1: feet from the basket and I remember thinking to myself 1731 01:24:51,439 --> 01:24:53,519 Speaker 1: at the time, this is not going to end well. 1732 01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:57,120 Speaker 1: Like you see teams get into these moments and it's 1733 01:24:57,200 --> 01:25:00,200 Speaker 1: just doesn't like, Okay, whatever you had drawn up Plan 1734 01:25:00,280 --> 01:25:01,720 Speaker 1: A or Plan B, it's not gonna end well. And 1735 01:25:01,880 --> 01:25:04,720 Speaker 1: Lawyer had the poise in that moment not to jack 1736 01:25:04,800 --> 01:25:06,760 Speaker 1: it up, not to kick it out. If you kick 1737 01:25:06,800 --> 01:25:08,160 Speaker 1: it out in that moment, it's probably gonna be a 1738 01:25:08,479 --> 01:25:11,640 Speaker 1: challenged twenty five footer. And no, it's almost like he 1739 01:25:11,760 --> 01:25:15,720 Speaker 1: took a breath in that moment, finds Oscar Cluff, who 1740 01:25:15,760 --> 01:25:17,840 Speaker 1: had a little bit of a seal, and next thing 1741 01:25:17,920 --> 01:25:21,160 Speaker 1: you know, Cluff lays it in for the game winner. 1742 01:25:21,400 --> 01:25:25,240 Speaker 1: And it just hearing Painters say that postgame, we all 1743 01:25:25,280 --> 01:25:28,120 Speaker 1: watched Fletcher Lawyer bang home shots and he's obviously a 1744 01:25:28,160 --> 01:25:29,880 Speaker 1: great shooter. And I thought you made a really strong 1745 01:25:29,960 --> 01:25:31,519 Speaker 1: point earlier in the show about getting to the foul 1746 01:25:31,600 --> 01:25:34,560 Speaker 1: line a little bit more as a driver. But like, 1747 01:25:34,720 --> 01:25:37,360 Speaker 1: it's just some of that stuff that you probably don't 1748 01:25:37,439 --> 01:25:40,200 Speaker 1: think of, but a coach that has five hundred wins 1749 01:25:40,280 --> 01:25:43,280 Speaker 1: on the sideline that Purdue thinks of that stuff. So 1750 01:25:43,400 --> 01:25:46,240 Speaker 1: hat tip to Fletcher Lawyer. As Purdue moves on to 1751 01:25:46,280 --> 01:25:49,559 Speaker 1: the Sweet sixteen outstanding yesterday and what a final month 1752 01:25:49,640 --> 01:25:49,960 Speaker 1: he's had. 1753 01:25:50,280 --> 01:25:52,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, And as I mentioned, I think that he's become 1754 01:25:52,200 --> 01:25:54,640 Speaker 4: such a more complete offensive player where it's not just 1755 01:25:54,680 --> 01:25:57,400 Speaker 4: spot up shooting or running off screens. It's now, okay, 1756 01:25:57,439 --> 01:25:59,640 Speaker 4: if you chase me off the screen, I'm gonna get 1757 01:25:59,640 --> 01:26:02,080 Speaker 4: downhill finish. And I think that's another element you have 1758 01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:04,640 Speaker 4: to account for when it comes to one of the 1759 01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:06,559 Speaker 4: best offense and not the best offense in the country. 1760 01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:08,800 Speaker 4: So yeah, I Fletcher Lawyer Man, I seen him grow 1761 01:26:08,840 --> 01:26:11,000 Speaker 4: up in that pretty uniform has been aside to see. 1762 01:26:11,080 --> 01:26:14,559 Speaker 1: A hyper extension of the knee for CJ. Cox. That's 1763 01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:17,080 Speaker 1: what he had to say afterwards. Well last Rob Blackman, 1764 01:26:17,120 --> 01:26:19,400 Speaker 1: if he's got any more on it, But basically for 1765 01:26:19,439 --> 01:26:22,120 Speaker 1: everything I gathered postgame, Matt Painter said some imaging would 1766 01:26:22,120 --> 01:26:23,519 Speaker 1: be done today for CJ. 1767 01:26:23,640 --> 01:26:23,920 Speaker 3: Cox. 1768 01:26:24,280 --> 01:26:27,080 Speaker 1: You know, sounded like from honestly more from people that 1769 01:26:27,160 --> 01:26:30,000 Speaker 1: were at the game, less the CBS crew. He was 1770 01:26:30,280 --> 01:26:31,640 Speaker 1: trying to kind of go back in the game. He 1771 01:26:31,720 --> 01:26:33,479 Speaker 1: definitely sat on the bench for what the final I 1772 01:26:33,520 --> 01:26:35,000 Speaker 1: don't know, seem like the five to ten minutes of 1773 01:26:35,080 --> 01:26:38,959 Speaker 1: the game there, which was a good sign. Cox expressed 1774 01:26:39,160 --> 01:26:41,479 Speaker 1: he thinks he will play on Thursday, but obviously that'll 1775 01:26:41,520 --> 01:26:43,720 Speaker 1: be a big storyline as we get a little bit closer. 1776 01:26:43,760 --> 01:26:46,280 Speaker 1: It's probably the one dissid Well. I guess there's some 1777 01:26:46,439 --> 01:26:49,519 Speaker 1: travel disadvantages too, but you know, produdeos have a very 1778 01:26:49,600 --> 01:26:52,559 Speaker 1: quick turnaround here to the Sweet six team. All right, 1779 01:26:52,640 --> 01:26:54,960 Speaker 1: Voice of the Boilers, he is Rob Blackman. He's going 1780 01:26:55,000 --> 01:26:59,840 Speaker 1: to join us next the Boilers are moving on to 1781 01:27:00,120 --> 01:27:03,920 Speaker 1: the Sweet sixteen. That means a trip out to San Jose. 1782 01:27:04,040 --> 01:27:07,280 Speaker 1: You think Rob Blackman's ever called a Perdue game from 1783 01:27:07,920 --> 01:27:10,680 Speaker 1: San Jose. I was gonna say California in general, but 1784 01:27:10,760 --> 01:27:14,200 Speaker 1: obviously now the Big ten calls California home. 1785 01:27:14,320 --> 01:27:15,320 Speaker 4: He's getting those miles in. 1786 01:27:16,120 --> 01:27:18,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't know if he can, if he can 1787 01:27:18,200 --> 01:27:21,880 Speaker 1: whatever cash in on the points, but nonetheless he's gonna 1788 01:27:21,920 --> 01:27:25,840 Speaker 1: see the Wessa. Well, yeah, amen to that part of 1789 01:27:25,880 --> 01:27:27,840 Speaker 1: the country coming up Thursday. They'll be the first game 1790 01:27:27,920 --> 01:27:30,559 Speaker 1: seven to ten out there for ten local time from 1791 01:27:30,680 --> 01:27:33,320 Speaker 1: the Perdue Global Radio Network to play by play voice 1792 01:27:33,360 --> 01:27:35,840 Speaker 1: the great Rob black Men. Rob, you ever called the 1793 01:27:35,920 --> 01:27:38,280 Speaker 1: game in the Bay Area? I don't know if you 1794 01:27:38,320 --> 01:27:39,559 Speaker 1: call San Jose the Bay Area? 1795 01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:43,120 Speaker 7: I have so we'll play a little trivia here with 1796 01:27:43,240 --> 01:27:48,840 Speaker 7: you guys. Indiana Firebirds Arena Football League back in the day. Oh, 1797 01:27:49,600 --> 01:27:52,479 Speaker 7: San Jose always had not only a team, but a 1798 01:27:52,640 --> 01:27:55,920 Speaker 7: very very good team. They typically won the Arena League championship. 1799 01:27:56,080 --> 01:27:57,960 Speaker 7: Anyone remember their nickname? 1800 01:27:58,680 --> 01:27:59,720 Speaker 4: Oh, no chance for me. 1801 01:28:00,320 --> 01:28:05,479 Speaker 1: Well, honestly, my Firebirds fandom stops at Raymond, phillyaw and 1802 01:28:05,800 --> 01:28:06,880 Speaker 1: Touchdown Eddie Brown. 1803 01:28:08,120 --> 01:28:13,920 Speaker 7: Those are actually good names. The San Jose SaberCats, so 1804 01:28:14,080 --> 01:28:17,040 Speaker 7: I have. I've actually called a couple three games in 1805 01:28:17,120 --> 01:28:20,160 Speaker 7: that building, but never basketball in that building. So this 1806 01:28:20,240 --> 01:28:22,440 Speaker 7: will be a first for me, at least doing basketball. 1807 01:28:22,760 --> 01:28:24,680 Speaker 1: Well look at that, Well you've got to coming up 1808 01:28:24,720 --> 01:28:27,160 Speaker 1: here on Thursday. We appreciate the time. Obviously, it is 1809 01:28:27,240 --> 01:28:30,120 Speaker 1: a quick turnaround. You know, I just kind of wanted 1810 01:28:30,160 --> 01:28:32,240 Speaker 1: to leave it a little open ended to start, because 1811 01:28:32,400 --> 01:28:33,880 Speaker 1: you know, when you go back to Friday night, the 1812 01:28:33,920 --> 01:28:36,719 Speaker 1: assist record and all of that, and then you fast 1813 01:28:36,760 --> 01:28:39,880 Speaker 1: forward to yesterday and the game is a much different game. 1814 01:28:39,960 --> 01:28:42,080 Speaker 1: You know, it's Fletcher Lawyer and it's EJ. Cox and 1815 01:28:42,120 --> 01:28:44,320 Speaker 1: the high of the first half and then oh my gosh, 1816 01:28:44,360 --> 01:28:47,400 Speaker 1: it's just another injury situation. Like there's so many moments 1817 01:28:47,439 --> 01:28:50,280 Speaker 1: So if I just said, like Rob Blackman, what was 1818 01:28:50,320 --> 01:28:52,360 Speaker 1: your favorite moment from being in Saint Louis for four 1819 01:28:52,439 --> 01:28:54,879 Speaker 1: days and watching Perdue win two games, you would say. 1820 01:28:54,720 --> 01:28:58,760 Speaker 7: What, Well, the the Braden Smith record breaker. I mean, 1821 01:28:58,840 --> 01:29:00,880 Speaker 7: that's gonna be hard to top that. I mean, it's 1822 01:29:01,080 --> 01:29:04,160 Speaker 7: when you become the all time right assist king in 1823 01:29:04,240 --> 01:29:07,160 Speaker 7: the history of NCAA basketball. It's kind of tough to 1824 01:29:07,280 --> 01:29:09,280 Speaker 7: tough that one, So that one moves right to the 1825 01:29:09,360 --> 01:29:11,200 Speaker 7: top of the list. But I got to tell you 1826 01:29:11,280 --> 01:29:14,439 Speaker 7: a close second, and I'm kind of kicking myself because 1827 01:29:14,479 --> 01:29:16,599 Speaker 7: I don't I don't feel like I gave it enough attention. 1828 01:29:16,800 --> 01:29:20,200 Speaker 7: Yesterday was Matt Painter getting his five hundredth to win 1829 01:29:20,360 --> 01:29:24,040 Speaker 7: yesterday as the Purdue head coach. You know, he'd already had, 1830 01:29:24,160 --> 01:29:27,000 Speaker 7: We'd already celebrated five hundred wins with him earlier in 1831 01:29:27,040 --> 01:29:29,240 Speaker 7: the year, but you know, twenty five of those came 1832 01:29:29,280 --> 01:29:32,479 Speaker 7: at Southern Illinois. So his five hundredth career win we 1833 01:29:32,600 --> 01:29:36,000 Speaker 7: celebrated early in the season at Macie Arena. But five 1834 01:29:36,120 --> 01:29:40,479 Speaker 7: hundred has a Purdue coach Purdue only Also happening yesterday 1835 01:29:40,680 --> 01:29:43,439 Speaker 7: was I would would rank up there as a close second, 1836 01:29:43,520 --> 01:29:46,840 Speaker 7: But I was thinking about this this morning, guys, and 1837 01:29:47,080 --> 01:29:49,559 Speaker 7: you know, look, obviously you get an NCAA tournament winning 1838 01:29:49,640 --> 01:29:52,160 Speaker 7: games that that is the ultimate goal that you want 1839 01:29:52,200 --> 01:29:54,439 Speaker 7: to win and move on and see the next weekend. 1840 01:29:55,000 --> 01:29:57,200 Speaker 7: But there were so many historic things that happened in 1841 01:29:57,320 --> 01:29:59,720 Speaker 7: that in that weekend, and I just mentioned two of them. 1842 01:29:59,760 --> 01:30:03,840 Speaker 7: But like Trade Kaufman, Wren moved into the top twenty 1843 01:30:04,320 --> 01:30:07,240 Speaker 7: in all time scoring in the history of Purdue. Yesterday, 1844 01:30:07,800 --> 01:30:10,719 Speaker 7: Fletcher Lawyer went over eighteen hundred points for his career. 1845 01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:15,599 Speaker 7: Brayden went over nineteen hundred points, which, look, it would 1846 01:30:15,600 --> 01:30:19,799 Speaker 7: take a herculean effort, but quite frankly, it's not completely 1847 01:30:19,840 --> 01:30:22,479 Speaker 7: out of the realm of possibility. Braydon Smith could get 1848 01:30:22,479 --> 01:30:25,080 Speaker 7: the two thousand career points. Again, they would take a 1849 01:30:25,160 --> 01:30:27,160 Speaker 7: herculean effort, but at least he can, you know, he 1850 01:30:27,240 --> 01:30:29,040 Speaker 7: can see it. He can see the finish line from 1851 01:30:29,040 --> 01:30:33,040 Speaker 7: where he is, which to me, is I mean, really 1852 01:30:33,439 --> 01:30:35,519 Speaker 7: a five to ten white kid that had one high 1853 01:30:35,600 --> 01:30:40,000 Speaker 7: major offer and he's that close to two thousand career points. 1854 01:30:40,040 --> 01:30:43,639 Speaker 7: So and he's already he already set the NCAA record 1855 01:30:43,680 --> 01:30:46,720 Speaker 7: for career assist I mean, what are we talking about here? 1856 01:30:46,920 --> 01:30:48,800 Speaker 8: So yeah, it was a. 1857 01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:52,040 Speaker 7: Historic weekend in a whole whole lot of different ways. 1858 01:30:52,800 --> 01:30:54,599 Speaker 7: But I would put the two that I just mentioned 1859 01:30:54,680 --> 01:30:55,439 Speaker 7: right there at the top. 1860 01:30:56,479 --> 01:30:58,840 Speaker 4: Rob when you look at the contributions you all got 1861 01:30:58,960 --> 01:31:02,720 Speaker 4: from CJ. Cox, especially that late first half flurry, you 1862 01:31:02,800 --> 01:31:04,880 Speaker 4: can trast that when he goes down. Can you just 1863 01:31:04,960 --> 01:31:08,880 Speaker 4: describe the emotions of both and obviously hopefully him making 1864 01:31:08,920 --> 01:31:12,120 Speaker 4: it out of that injury on the better side of it, Well. 1865 01:31:12,080 --> 01:31:14,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, let's start with the fact he rip off those 1866 01:31:14,200 --> 01:31:15,960 Speaker 7: three threes in a row at the end of the 1867 01:31:16,040 --> 01:31:19,120 Speaker 7: first half when it felt like Purdue was I wouldn't 1868 01:31:19,120 --> 01:31:21,240 Speaker 7: say circling the drain, but they certainly were in a 1869 01:31:21,280 --> 01:31:25,040 Speaker 7: bad way. It was very reminiscent of his freshman year. 1870 01:31:25,120 --> 01:31:29,599 Speaker 7: Purdue fans would remember against Alabama real early in his career. 1871 01:31:29,640 --> 01:31:32,400 Speaker 7: It was a November game and he made three threes 1872 01:31:32,479 --> 01:31:35,080 Speaker 7: in a row, and that was kind of like his welcoming, 1873 01:31:35,920 --> 01:31:39,200 Speaker 7: his coming out party, I should say, to welcome himself 1874 01:31:39,320 --> 01:31:42,400 Speaker 7: to all the fans in Mackie Arena and Purdue basketball. 1875 01:31:42,880 --> 01:31:46,479 Speaker 7: Very very similar to what he did yesterday, three threes 1876 01:31:46,520 --> 01:31:48,720 Speaker 7: in a row when Purdue absolutely had to have it. 1877 01:31:49,400 --> 01:31:52,160 Speaker 7: And for those I don't know if you could feel 1878 01:31:52,200 --> 01:31:55,200 Speaker 7: the tension on television as maybe as much as you 1879 01:31:55,240 --> 01:31:57,240 Speaker 7: could in the building, but it really felt like Purdue 1880 01:31:57,320 --> 01:32:00,320 Speaker 7: was teetering right there, so Prdue needed all three of 1881 01:32:00,360 --> 01:32:04,000 Speaker 7: those three point shots. So yeah, you're you're riding the 1882 01:32:04,080 --> 01:32:07,000 Speaker 7: emotional high of man and maybe CJ. Cox just saved 1883 01:32:07,040 --> 01:32:09,559 Speaker 7: the season for Purdue right there. And then he goes 1884 01:32:09,600 --> 01:32:14,000 Speaker 7: down with a knee injury. You know has in my job, 1885 01:32:14,080 --> 01:32:16,120 Speaker 7: it's hard to stop and think much about it as 1886 01:32:16,160 --> 01:32:19,720 Speaker 7: it happens in game because you have so many many 1887 01:32:19,760 --> 01:32:23,479 Speaker 7: other things you have to pay attention to. But when 1888 01:32:23,520 --> 01:32:25,400 Speaker 7: he did come back out on the floor in full 1889 01:32:25,520 --> 01:32:27,400 Speaker 7: uniform and you could see him, I don't know how 1890 01:32:27,479 --> 01:32:29,760 Speaker 7: much they showed on television, but you know he was 1891 01:32:29,840 --> 01:32:33,160 Speaker 7: over there really stretching out and and jumping up and 1892 01:32:33,240 --> 01:32:35,800 Speaker 7: down and doing some light jogging. So you felt like 1893 01:32:35,920 --> 01:32:38,000 Speaker 7: he probably was good in good enough shape that if 1894 01:32:38,120 --> 01:32:40,040 Speaker 7: Purdue would have gotten desperate and had to put him 1895 01:32:40,040 --> 01:32:42,080 Speaker 7: back in the game, he could have gone in. And 1896 01:32:42,160 --> 01:32:43,519 Speaker 7: I think he said as much at the end of 1897 01:32:43,600 --> 01:32:47,439 Speaker 7: the in the post game, So I didn't I know, 1898 01:32:47,560 --> 01:32:49,599 Speaker 7: it was an emotional rollercoaster for a lot of folks, 1899 01:32:49,720 --> 01:32:51,559 Speaker 7: not so much me again, because you're just caught up 1900 01:32:51,600 --> 01:32:53,120 Speaker 7: in a moment you don't have time to think much 1901 01:32:53,160 --> 01:32:56,640 Speaker 7: about it. Hopefully he's okay. He certainly looked pretty good 1902 01:32:56,920 --> 01:33:02,519 Speaker 7: postgame yesterday walking around and was in good spirits. So again, 1903 01:33:02,640 --> 01:33:05,640 Speaker 7: from an emotional roller coaster standpoint, not much for me, 1904 01:33:05,720 --> 01:33:08,160 Speaker 7: other than being really excited when he ripped off those 1905 01:33:08,200 --> 01:33:10,519 Speaker 7: three threes when Purdue absolutely had to have them. 1906 01:33:11,439 --> 01:33:13,960 Speaker 1: And Rob Blackman with us here Perdue, Global Radio Network 1907 01:33:14,080 --> 01:33:16,280 Speaker 1: Voice of the Boilers. That'll be Purdue in Texas coming 1908 01:33:16,360 --> 01:33:19,600 Speaker 1: up seven to ten Eastern time on Thursday. Rob, do 1909 01:33:19,640 --> 01:33:23,360 Speaker 1: you guys leave today tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow. 1910 01:33:23,680 --> 01:33:26,800 Speaker 7: It's my understanding they're going to try to get a 1911 01:33:26,880 --> 01:33:31,639 Speaker 7: flight for everyone out of at a Purdue early afternoon tomorrow. 1912 01:33:31,760 --> 01:33:34,080 Speaker 7: That's the plan, at least, you know. 1913 01:33:34,320 --> 01:33:36,479 Speaker 1: I was thinking back on yesterday. We just played the 1914 01:33:36,560 --> 01:33:39,960 Speaker 1: Fletcher Lawyer audio. I guess Matt Painter on Fletcher Lawyer 1915 01:33:40,720 --> 01:33:43,320 Speaker 1: from yesterday, and you know, you live in a different 1916 01:33:43,360 --> 01:33:45,120 Speaker 1: bubble than us, but you know, it just seems like 1917 01:33:45,200 --> 01:33:47,600 Speaker 1: for a player, it's accomplished so much Purdue. You know, 1918 01:33:47,720 --> 01:33:50,439 Speaker 1: people are so quick to throw whatever a jab at 1919 01:33:50,479 --> 01:33:53,439 Speaker 1: Fletcher when maybe the jumper isn't as pristine as it 1920 01:33:53,520 --> 01:33:56,040 Speaker 1: has been through his four years. But I do find 1921 01:33:56,080 --> 01:33:58,360 Speaker 1: it fitting Rob that in the most critical juncture of 1922 01:33:58,400 --> 01:34:02,360 Speaker 1: these guys careers, here's the final times plaurally, you get 1923 01:34:02,400 --> 01:34:06,400 Speaker 1: to put on a Purdue uniform. He's been so darned 1924 01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:10,160 Speaker 1: good and just so consistent. James brought up his ability 1925 01:34:10,200 --> 01:34:12,240 Speaker 1: to drive a little bit earlier. You saw yesterday get 1926 01:34:12,240 --> 01:34:14,080 Speaker 1: to the foul line. You know, I think back to 1927 01:34:14,479 --> 01:34:17,479 Speaker 1: the Nebraska game, the first one earlier this year, chaotic moment, 1928 01:34:17,600 --> 01:34:20,599 Speaker 1: final possession. He's got the calmness to find Oscar Cluff 1929 01:34:21,040 --> 01:34:22,519 Speaker 1: for that game when he lay up. These aren't the 1930 01:34:22,600 --> 01:34:24,880 Speaker 1: volleyball line threes that we know he can make, and 1931 01:34:24,920 --> 01:34:28,280 Speaker 1: he's the all time leading shooter three point shooter that is. 1932 01:34:28,920 --> 01:34:31,360 Speaker 1: But it just seems really fitting Rob that here they 1933 01:34:31,400 --> 01:34:33,840 Speaker 1: are in another sweet sixteen and it's the guy that 1934 01:34:33,880 --> 01:34:35,560 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people take for granted in 1935 01:34:35,640 --> 01:34:36,280 Speaker 1: Fletcher Lawyer. 1936 01:34:37,200 --> 01:34:41,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, he's been and look, when you're the running mate 1937 01:34:41,360 --> 01:34:43,439 Speaker 7: of Braydon Smith, it is kind of easy to be 1938 01:34:43,560 --> 01:34:45,880 Speaker 7: the forgotten guy. But you're right, there's also been a 1939 01:34:45,960 --> 01:34:48,920 Speaker 7: lot of venom throwing his way over his career. Well, 1940 01:34:49,040 --> 01:34:51,920 Speaker 7: I have to tell you, just trying to again, I 1941 01:34:52,000 --> 01:34:54,080 Speaker 7: try to be as objective as possible when I look 1942 01:34:54,080 --> 01:34:58,120 Speaker 7: at these things. I don't know why anyone would throw 1943 01:34:58,200 --> 01:35:02,120 Speaker 7: venom toward Fletch. I mean, he's eighteen hundred career points 1944 01:35:02,160 --> 01:35:05,240 Speaker 7: for the guy he's going to graduate as one of 1945 01:35:05,920 --> 01:35:08,080 Speaker 7: I'd have to look this up four or five players 1946 01:35:08,120 --> 01:35:11,200 Speaker 7: that have ever averaged double figures for all four years 1947 01:35:11,240 --> 01:35:13,639 Speaker 7: of their career. Think about that. He averaged double figures 1948 01:35:13,640 --> 01:35:16,040 Speaker 7: as a freshman, and most people seem to forget that. 1949 01:35:16,320 --> 01:35:19,720 Speaker 7: A lot of people don't even know that actually, and yes, 1950 01:35:19,760 --> 01:35:23,599 Speaker 7: he's the school's all time leader in three point shots made, 1951 01:35:23,600 --> 01:35:26,040 Speaker 7: as you mentioned. And by the way, he started every 1952 01:35:26,080 --> 01:35:28,800 Speaker 7: single game of his career, just like Brayden Smith, as 1953 01:35:29,280 --> 01:35:31,760 Speaker 7: he was in the starting lineup from day one, game one. 1954 01:35:32,040 --> 01:35:37,840 Speaker 7: So I agree with you, I know, probably unfairly. I think, 1955 01:35:37,880 --> 01:35:40,120 Speaker 7: in my opinion, he does take a lot of heat. 1956 01:35:40,240 --> 01:35:43,840 Speaker 7: But man, if you just step back objectively, look at 1957 01:35:43,880 --> 01:35:45,680 Speaker 7: the numbers that he's produced. And oh, by the way, 1958 01:35:45,760 --> 01:35:49,040 Speaker 7: the winning hasn't hurt either. Last I checked, he's been 1959 01:35:49,080 --> 01:35:51,000 Speaker 7: a part of all these wins over the last four years. 1960 01:35:51,960 --> 01:35:53,880 Speaker 7: I do have a tough time seeing why he gets 1961 01:35:53,880 --> 01:35:56,280 Speaker 7: a whole lot of criticism when you consider just the 1962 01:35:56,640 --> 01:35:57,759 Speaker 7: actual overall numbers. 1963 01:35:58,400 --> 01:36:01,400 Speaker 4: Rob last one from me quick look ahead to Texas. 1964 01:36:01,439 --> 01:36:04,240 Speaker 4: I'm sure you probably at least glanced at what they 1965 01:36:04,360 --> 01:36:07,639 Speaker 4: could put up against this Purdue team. Your early thoughts 1966 01:36:07,680 --> 01:36:08,400 Speaker 4: on that matchup. 1967 01:36:09,479 --> 01:36:11,759 Speaker 7: Well, you know, I've watched him a lot, James, simply 1968 01:36:11,840 --> 01:36:14,960 Speaker 7: because I'm a big Cam Heidi fan. So whenever they 1969 01:36:15,040 --> 01:36:17,200 Speaker 7: popped up on TV this year, I would always stop 1970 01:36:17,280 --> 01:36:20,679 Speaker 7: and watch. And I think our players and coaches would 1971 01:36:20,680 --> 01:36:22,760 Speaker 7: tell you the same because Cam is so well liked 1972 01:36:23,080 --> 01:36:26,320 Speaker 7: on our team, you know, as a former player, so 1973 01:36:26,400 --> 01:36:28,600 Speaker 7: a lot of guys really root for him, coaches and 1974 01:36:28,680 --> 01:36:31,680 Speaker 7: players alike. So I actually have seen them play a lot. 1975 01:36:32,120 --> 01:36:34,320 Speaker 7: I would say this, much of their low post plays 1976 01:36:34,880 --> 01:36:37,240 Speaker 7: has really gotten better from what what it looked like 1977 01:36:37,360 --> 01:36:39,679 Speaker 7: early in the season, and that's amusment the difference maker 1978 01:36:39,760 --> 01:36:42,920 Speaker 7: for them. I won't pronounce his name correctly at least today. 1979 01:36:43,040 --> 01:36:46,519 Speaker 7: I'll have it right by Thursday. But in the center 1980 01:36:46,600 --> 01:36:50,320 Speaker 7: they're playing Popetos or again, I apologize for not getting 1981 01:36:50,320 --> 01:36:53,680 Speaker 7: the right man. It seems like he's come miles from 1982 01:36:53,680 --> 01:36:55,360 Speaker 7: where he was early in the season, and he was 1983 01:36:55,439 --> 01:36:57,640 Speaker 7: a real difference maker in the Sincia Tournament to this 1984 01:36:57,760 --> 01:37:00,200 Speaker 7: point for them. So they always had the good guard 1985 01:37:00,240 --> 01:37:02,840 Speaker 7: play tremon Mark obviously gives you a chance right away 1986 01:37:02,880 --> 01:37:05,599 Speaker 7: with a guard like pardon me, with a guard like him. 1987 01:37:05,640 --> 01:37:08,400 Speaker 7: But now that they've got much better post play, and look, 1988 01:37:08,520 --> 01:37:11,120 Speaker 7: I mean hard to argue there's a there's a hotter 1989 01:37:11,240 --> 01:37:13,720 Speaker 7: team right now in the NCAA tournament. I mean it's 1990 01:37:13,800 --> 01:37:15,519 Speaker 7: you know, it's one thing to be a team that 1991 01:37:15,600 --> 01:37:18,599 Speaker 7: wins in the first four and then get the Sweet sixteen. 1992 01:37:18,680 --> 01:37:20,880 Speaker 7: But look how they've done it. You know, you're flying 1993 01:37:20,920 --> 01:37:24,120 Speaker 7: from Austin, Texas to Dayton, then quickly on a flight 1994 01:37:24,280 --> 01:37:27,519 Speaker 7: out to wherever they Portland. I think. So, I mean 1995 01:37:27,600 --> 01:37:30,200 Speaker 7: that's man, that's hard to do. And then here they 1996 01:37:30,200 --> 01:37:33,840 Speaker 7: are still still alive in this tournament. So as you 1997 01:37:33,920 --> 01:37:36,760 Speaker 7: guys know, this tournament's all about, are you playing your 1998 01:37:36,800 --> 01:37:39,120 Speaker 7: best at the right time? I would say those guys 1999 01:37:39,280 --> 01:37:41,639 Speaker 7: definitely are doing that. But you know what I feel 2000 01:37:41,680 --> 01:37:44,720 Speaker 7: like Purdue is to at least offensively. It would be 2001 01:37:44,760 --> 01:37:47,120 Speaker 7: hard to argue to produced not playing its best. It's 2002 01:37:47,160 --> 01:37:49,880 Speaker 7: been all year. I mean, produce shooting what fifty eight 2003 01:37:49,960 --> 01:37:53,960 Speaker 7: percent from three in the two tournament games, so this 2004 01:37:54,040 --> 01:37:56,240 Speaker 7: should be a really good one. On Thursday, PJ. 2005 01:37:56,400 --> 01:37:58,720 Speaker 1: Thompson got to hide the white board a little bit more. 2006 01:37:59,000 --> 01:38:01,000 Speaker 1: On Thursday, I was. 2007 01:38:01,800 --> 01:38:04,920 Speaker 7: Thinking about it. You know, you know, Sean Miller and 2008 01:38:04,960 --> 01:38:06,720 Speaker 7: his staff are going to just be pepper and he 2009 01:38:07,680 --> 01:38:10,519 Speaker 7: now the one thing Purdue has going for it. And 2010 01:38:10,920 --> 01:38:14,200 Speaker 7: Cam's a really smart guy. Don't misunderstand me. But Purdue 2011 01:38:14,320 --> 01:38:17,639 Speaker 7: runs so much stuff on offense. They have so many plays, 2012 01:38:18,320 --> 01:38:21,839 Speaker 7: I mean, hundreds of plays. I can't imagine Cam remembered 2013 01:38:21,840 --> 01:38:24,960 Speaker 7: all of them. I can't imagine Braden Smith quite frankly 2014 01:38:25,040 --> 01:38:28,599 Speaker 7: has remembered all of them. Uh So, hopefully that could 2015 01:38:28,680 --> 01:38:31,400 Speaker 7: work in produce favor. But yes, Texas is going to 2016 01:38:31,439 --> 01:38:33,439 Speaker 7: have a little bit of an insight scounting report, that's 2017 01:38:33,439 --> 01:38:33,800 Speaker 7: for sure. 2018 01:38:34,200 --> 01:38:36,240 Speaker 1: Well, and Purdue knows if Cam Heidie's in the corner, 2019 01:38:36,320 --> 01:38:37,759 Speaker 1: somebody better run out there and challenge. 2020 01:38:37,840 --> 01:38:39,400 Speaker 3: Yet after what we saw, don't let it. 2021 01:38:39,600 --> 01:38:40,000 Speaker 8: That's right. 2022 01:38:40,120 --> 01:38:42,439 Speaker 1: The other nights, Rob, we can't think you know, if 2023 01:38:42,479 --> 01:38:45,240 Speaker 1: we know it's been crazy for you, safe safe travels 2024 01:38:45,360 --> 01:38:47,839 Speaker 1: and hopefully we're running it back Monday at nine o'clock 2025 01:38:47,880 --> 01:38:48,559 Speaker 1: if you don't mind. 2026 01:38:49,160 --> 01:38:50,160 Speaker 7: Okay, sounds great. 2027 01:38:50,200 --> 01:38:50,800 Speaker 3: I hope we do that. 2028 01:38:50,960 --> 01:38:51,519 Speaker 7: Thank you guys. 2029 01:38:51,840 --> 01:38:55,400 Speaker 1: Voice of the Boilers. That is Rob Blackman right there. 2030 01:38:55,520 --> 01:38:57,400 Speaker 1: I mean that three he hit the other night, James, 2031 01:38:57,600 --> 01:38:59,200 Speaker 1: it was so eerie how much it was like the 2032 01:38:59,240 --> 01:39:03,640 Speaker 1: Houston game. Yeah, that was weird because it looks like 2033 01:39:03,720 --> 01:39:06,640 Speaker 1: he's in the wrong uniform. But that's his new place now. 2034 01:39:06,720 --> 01:39:08,120 Speaker 4: And honestly, I feel like you got to go back 2035 01:39:08,120 --> 01:39:11,160 Speaker 4: in the archives and like get the files and blow 2036 01:39:11,280 --> 01:39:13,920 Speaker 4: dust off of the OLK Cam Heidie proof plays and 2037 01:39:14,000 --> 01:39:14,600 Speaker 4: get ready to go. 2038 01:39:14,920 --> 01:39:18,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, and we did cut some Matte Painter, Caleb cut 2039 01:39:18,160 --> 01:39:21,080 Speaker 1: some Matt Painter audio on Cam Heidi. Maybe we'll play 2040 01:39:21,120 --> 01:39:23,600 Speaker 1: that for you coming up tomorrow. But to kind of 2041 01:39:23,600 --> 01:39:25,639 Speaker 1: echo what Rob was saying. I didn't get the sense 2042 01:39:25,680 --> 01:39:28,000 Speaker 1: in hearing Matt Painter talk about Cam Heidi that there 2043 01:39:28,040 --> 01:39:31,320 Speaker 1: were that many hard feelings about him transferring. I think, 2044 01:39:31,400 --> 01:39:34,200 Speaker 1: you know, yes, I'm reading body language here a little bit. 2045 01:39:34,280 --> 01:39:38,200 Speaker 1: But the answer about that shot the other night I 2046 01:39:38,240 --> 01:39:42,200 Speaker 1: thought was pretty It seems like there are some good feelings. 2047 01:39:42,200 --> 01:39:45,599 Speaker 1: Obviously there won't be any coming seven to ten on Thursday. 2048 01:39:45,640 --> 01:39:48,720 Speaker 1: There so quick quick turnaround for the Boilers. Seven and 2049 01:39:48,760 --> 01:39:51,519 Speaker 1: a half point favorite. If I gave you guys, the 2050 01:39:51,680 --> 01:39:55,439 Speaker 1: big ten of the field right now. Ooh, cut down 2051 01:39:55,479 --> 01:39:59,240 Speaker 1: the nets. Two Mondays from now over Lucas Oil. Big 2052 01:39:59,400 --> 01:40:03,360 Speaker 1: ten of the six teams left, I'm probably still gonna 2053 01:40:03,360 --> 01:40:03,920 Speaker 1: take the field. 2054 01:40:04,960 --> 01:40:06,960 Speaker 4: Maybe it's because of the drought and I just haven't 2055 01:40:06,960 --> 01:40:09,200 Speaker 4: seen a big team, big ten team get it done 2056 01:40:09,240 --> 01:40:13,320 Speaker 4: in so long. But I say that knowing that the 2057 01:40:13,400 --> 01:40:15,639 Speaker 4: field has some really good teams too. They're not all Texas. 2058 01:40:16,439 --> 01:40:18,160 Speaker 4: I mean, you got Duke still left, you got Houston 2059 01:40:18,200 --> 01:40:21,360 Speaker 4: still left, you got Saint John still left. Like yeah, 2060 01:40:21,880 --> 01:40:22,600 Speaker 4: I I I. 2061 01:40:24,400 --> 01:40:27,840 Speaker 5: Mean Michigan's performance against Saint Louis Saturday and it was 2062 01:40:27,880 --> 01:40:29,600 Speaker 5: the first game of the Round thirty two, but that 2063 01:40:29,840 --> 01:40:30,759 Speaker 5: was just flawless. 2064 01:40:30,840 --> 01:40:32,000 Speaker 4: That's what we really talked about them. 2065 01:40:32,040 --> 01:40:34,439 Speaker 5: Yeah, they're like the least talked about one seed right now, 2066 01:40:34,520 --> 01:40:37,400 Speaker 5: and they're so good man, so like that when you 2067 01:40:37,479 --> 01:40:39,720 Speaker 5: think about them, you're like, okay, like they have a 2068 01:40:39,840 --> 01:40:42,360 Speaker 5: great chance to win this. And then three of the 2069 01:40:42,439 --> 01:40:44,840 Speaker 5: four teams in that South region are Big ten, so 2070 01:40:44,960 --> 01:40:46,880 Speaker 5: you you have to believe there's a good chance that 2071 01:40:46,960 --> 01:40:47,720 Speaker 5: one can come out of there. 2072 01:40:47,720 --> 01:40:48,720 Speaker 4: Even though Houston's really good. 2073 01:40:48,720 --> 01:40:53,280 Speaker 5: I would probably still say Field, but I'm moving closer 2074 01:40:53,360 --> 01:40:54,760 Speaker 5: and closer to saying Big ten. 2075 01:40:54,720 --> 01:40:57,200 Speaker 1: Could actually do this. Yeah, and you look top left 2076 01:40:57,200 --> 01:40:58,880 Speaker 1: two with like Michigan State. I mean, I know it 2077 01:40:58,920 --> 01:41:02,880 Speaker 1: wasn't maybe perfect with Louisville, but the ISO stat that 2078 01:41:03,040 --> 01:41:04,800 Speaker 1: I could not believe, and it's a little bit of 2079 01:41:04,840 --> 01:41:06,920 Speaker 1: a nerdy one, but they flashed it up late in 2080 01:41:06,960 --> 01:41:10,040 Speaker 1: the broadcast on whenever that game was Saturday, I think 2081 01:41:10,080 --> 01:41:14,240 Speaker 1: it was. He is twenty six and nine in the 2082 01:41:14,400 --> 01:41:18,439 Speaker 1: NCAA tournament when you play the second game of the weekend. 2083 01:41:19,360 --> 01:41:21,080 Speaker 1: So you know, obviously in the NCAA tournament usually you 2084 01:41:21,160 --> 01:41:23,360 Speaker 1: play Thursday, Saturday or Friday Sunday, and you do that, 2085 01:41:23,640 --> 01:41:25,120 Speaker 1: you know, each of the first two rounds, and you 2086 01:41:25,200 --> 01:41:27,120 Speaker 1: get the final four, and of course it's Saturday Monday. 2087 01:41:27,320 --> 01:41:29,960 Speaker 1: So basically what that stat is is the quick turnaround, 2088 01:41:30,640 --> 01:41:33,720 Speaker 1: you know, the less the forty eight hour window to 2089 01:41:33,880 --> 01:41:38,200 Speaker 1: prepare for that team. He is twenty six and nine, 2090 01:41:38,760 --> 01:41:41,200 Speaker 1: and again, those are the second games of each weekend, 2091 01:41:41,400 --> 01:41:46,080 Speaker 1: so we're talking second round, Elite eight or national title, right, Aka, 2092 01:41:46,200 --> 01:41:49,960 Speaker 1: your opponent's a good freaking team and he's twenty six 2093 01:41:50,080 --> 01:41:56,160 Speaker 1: and nine, Like holy smokes, and you got teams like 2094 01:41:56,600 --> 01:41:58,679 Speaker 1: Saint Mary's who can't even get out of the first round. 2095 01:41:58,760 --> 01:42:02,080 Speaker 1: Like he is just master this month man, like he 2096 01:42:02,240 --> 01:42:04,160 Speaker 1: he has And I used to deny it for a 2097 01:42:04,280 --> 01:42:06,400 Speaker 1: long time because he's like, well, how many national titles 2098 01:42:06,439 --> 01:42:09,200 Speaker 1: as he won? But like you, I mean, he's taken 2099 01:42:09,360 --> 01:42:11,880 Speaker 1: seven seeds to the final four. This team looks as 2100 01:42:11,920 --> 01:42:14,800 Speaker 1: good as any that he's had in the past couple 2101 01:42:14,840 --> 01:42:15,120 Speaker 1: of years. 2102 01:42:15,200 --> 01:42:16,880 Speaker 4: Like he's just he's special, man. 2103 01:42:17,280 --> 01:42:20,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, certainly is. That'll be him and Dan Hurley matching 2104 01:42:20,560 --> 01:42:24,000 Speaker 1: up there in that East Region John Shire, Rick Patino, Tomzo, 2105 01:42:24,120 --> 01:42:27,439 Speaker 1: Dan Hurley White the final four coaches there in that 2106 01:42:27,560 --> 01:42:31,560 Speaker 1: top left. That's the East Region from Washington, d C. 2107 01:42:31,760 --> 01:42:33,280 Speaker 1: All right, let's go ahead and check it down here, 2108 01:42:35,080 --> 01:42:37,160 Speaker 1: all right, the weekend that was for the Boilers. Indeed 2109 01:42:37,200 --> 01:42:40,160 Speaker 1: the assist record for Braden Smith on Friday night, it 2110 01:42:40,200 --> 01:42:42,040 Speaker 1: seemed like for a moment there no one from Perdue 2111 01:42:42,120 --> 01:42:44,439 Speaker 1: necessarily wanted to be the one to kind of finish 2112 01:42:44,520 --> 01:42:47,280 Speaker 1: off that play. But it was Trey coffmin Ran getting 2113 01:42:47,320 --> 01:42:49,880 Speaker 1: it done. They rolled Queen's there in the second half. 2114 01:42:50,200 --> 01:42:53,280 Speaker 1: And then yesterday Brayden struggling a career high in in 2115 01:42:53,479 --> 01:42:57,320 Speaker 1: turnovers with eight struggling shooting the basketball but as Rob 2116 01:42:57,360 --> 01:43:00,400 Speaker 1: Blackman said, James Perdue has shot it great for three 2117 01:43:01,600 --> 01:43:04,519 Speaker 1: here in these first two games. CJ. Cox first half, 2118 01:43:04,600 --> 01:43:07,960 Speaker 1: Fletcher Lawyer both haves. Those two in particular really stood 2119 01:43:07,960 --> 01:43:09,320 Speaker 1: out to me from yesterday. 2120 01:43:09,439 --> 01:43:13,639 Speaker 4: Absolutely and CJ. Cox talking to Rob Blackman there recently 2121 01:43:13,760 --> 01:43:16,160 Speaker 4: hoping the best for him moving forward, which is glad 2122 01:43:16,240 --> 01:43:19,240 Speaker 4: that it looks like he avoided the three letter word 2123 01:43:19,360 --> 01:43:22,040 Speaker 4: there on that awkward landing there in the second half. 2124 01:43:22,120 --> 01:43:24,240 Speaker 1: Well, and again not to get ahead of ourselves, but 2125 01:43:24,320 --> 01:43:27,640 Speaker 1: I will if the new Advances you were going to 2126 01:43:27,720 --> 01:43:33,360 Speaker 1: face either Jaden Bradley or Braden Burry's two very dynamic 2127 01:43:33,439 --> 01:43:38,799 Speaker 1: guards in Arizona, or Darius Acuff Emily Thomas in Arkansas, 2128 01:43:39,920 --> 01:43:42,599 Speaker 1: you will need CJ. Cox if you want to get 2129 01:43:42,640 --> 01:43:46,720 Speaker 1: to Indy, like you can maybe survive Texas with they 2130 01:43:46,800 --> 01:43:50,400 Speaker 1: limited CJ. Cox, which is kind of wild when Rob 2131 01:43:50,479 --> 01:43:53,760 Speaker 1: just laid all that out about Texas. Treymond Mack. It's 2132 01:43:53,840 --> 01:43:55,360 Speaker 1: the shot to get them out of Dayton. I mean, 2133 01:43:55,400 --> 01:43:58,080 Speaker 1: they're one shot away from not getting out of Dayton, 2134 01:43:58,600 --> 01:44:01,400 Speaker 1: and now here they are forty minutes away from a 2135 01:44:02,240 --> 01:44:02,760 Speaker 1: Elite eight. 2136 01:44:03,880 --> 01:44:05,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's crazy to think about. 2137 01:44:07,120 --> 01:44:08,160 Speaker 1: It's the beauty of this month. 2138 01:44:08,479 --> 01:44:13,400 Speaker 4: Yeah boy, So okay, when does the competitive anxiety sink 2139 01:44:13,439 --> 01:44:13,760 Speaker 4: in for you? 2140 01:44:16,080 --> 01:44:17,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great point because I brought up earlier. 2141 01:44:17,960 --> 01:44:20,120 Speaker 1: I think this is the best time for a college 2142 01:44:20,160 --> 01:44:22,600 Speaker 1: basketball fan if your team is still a lot, right, so. 2143 01:44:22,640 --> 01:44:23,760 Speaker 4: You get the calls for a little bit. 2144 01:44:24,640 --> 01:44:27,160 Speaker 1: You won both your games, you're in the final sixteen, 2145 01:44:27,280 --> 01:44:29,799 Speaker 1: you're kicking the feed up. Maybe even you're thinking to yourself, 2146 01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:31,760 Speaker 1: oh man, should we travel, should we go out there? 2147 01:44:32,680 --> 01:44:34,360 Speaker 1: Should we wait to end? Should we start looking at 2148 01:44:34,360 --> 01:44:37,439 Speaker 1: final four tickets? Like you're now throwing out all those 2149 01:44:37,520 --> 01:44:41,839 Speaker 1: texts and all those thoughts there? Competitive anxiety Wednesday at sunset? 2150 01:44:42,640 --> 01:44:44,640 Speaker 5: Okay, for twenty four hours is what I was going 2151 01:44:44,680 --> 01:44:46,920 Speaker 5: to say. Twenty four hours sunset thing. 2152 01:44:47,320 --> 01:44:49,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, that's fair enough, because I know some 2153 01:44:49,920 --> 01:44:51,720 Speaker 4: fans are like, okay, as soon as you win, it's like, 2154 01:44:51,800 --> 01:44:53,479 Speaker 4: oh my god, the dread sets in. 2155 01:44:53,760 --> 01:44:56,040 Speaker 1: No, No, you gotta enjoy. Yeah, yeah, you gotta soak 2156 01:44:56,080 --> 01:44:58,240 Speaker 1: it up. A little bit easier said than done, I'm sure. 2157 01:44:58,560 --> 01:45:01,479 Speaker 1: All right. Shifting gears here from a women's tournament standpoint, 2158 01:45:01,880 --> 01:45:04,360 Speaker 1: pretty chalky per usual. You do have a local action 2159 01:45:04,479 --> 01:45:07,080 Speaker 1: today at four o'clock Notre Dame at Ohio State. A 2160 01:45:07,120 --> 01:45:09,400 Speaker 1: great great guard matchup in that one. We'll see if 2161 01:45:09,400 --> 01:45:11,760 Speaker 1: hannahud aalg in the Irish can get it downe there. 2162 01:45:11,840 --> 01:45:14,519 Speaker 1: The sixth seed taken on three seed Ohio State. That 2163 01:45:14,720 --> 01:45:18,200 Speaker 1: again is a four o'clock tip from over there in Columbus. 2164 01:45:18,400 --> 01:45:22,320 Speaker 1: Speaking of hoops, James Boyd, you ventured out to Newcastle 2165 01:45:22,880 --> 01:45:26,320 Speaker 1: this weekend and you saw quite the effort from Luke Urdle. 2166 01:45:26,520 --> 01:45:26,680 Speaker 6: Yeah. 2167 01:45:26,760 --> 01:45:29,000 Speaker 4: First I saw the Steve Afford inme and I drive 2168 01:45:29,040 --> 01:45:29,880 Speaker 4: past it every time. 2169 01:45:29,840 --> 01:45:32,000 Speaker 1: And just living is it alive? It is a live 2170 01:45:32,280 --> 01:45:35,920 Speaker 1: free HBO and the sign outside free Steve Alford highlights 2171 01:45:35,960 --> 01:45:36,080 Speaker 1: on you. 2172 01:45:36,160 --> 01:45:37,880 Speaker 4: I don't know, I feel like the sign everything I 2173 01:45:37,960 --> 01:45:39,519 Speaker 4: see it, I'm like, it's not updated, so it must 2174 01:45:39,520 --> 01:45:41,720 Speaker 4: still be good. You know, everything stays the same over 2175 01:45:41,800 --> 01:45:45,080 Speaker 4: there and that Neckadi Woods. But yeah, great matchup, great environment. Really, 2176 01:45:45,120 --> 01:45:47,320 Speaker 4: all three games I thought were pretty fine. Out a 2177 01:45:47,400 --> 01:45:51,760 Speaker 4: care Central didn't really stand a chance against malt Vernon, 2178 01:45:51,840 --> 01:45:53,639 Speaker 4: but still getting to that point in their season was great. 2179 01:45:53,680 --> 01:45:56,599 Speaker 4: But Luke Urtle they advanced to state he probably should 2180 01:45:56,600 --> 01:45:59,559 Speaker 4: have filed out, and I say probably in parentheses because 2181 01:45:59,560 --> 01:46:01,720 Speaker 4: he should have fouled out, but he did not. They 2182 01:46:01,800 --> 01:46:04,280 Speaker 4: hold On and you get a rematch of the Hall 2183 01:46:04,280 --> 01:46:06,960 Speaker 4: of Fame Class Sea between them and Crownpoint. So what 2184 01:46:07,080 --> 01:46:09,679 Speaker 4: I like about that matchup is it could go either way. Seriously, 2185 01:46:10,040 --> 01:46:11,800 Speaker 4: I think that Crownpoint is a great team and I 2186 01:46:11,840 --> 01:46:14,280 Speaker 4: think that Mount Vernon is led by a great player 2187 01:46:14,439 --> 01:46:16,000 Speaker 4: with a great team, so it should be fun. 2188 01:46:16,160 --> 01:46:16,320 Speaker 7: Yeah. 2189 01:46:16,320 --> 01:46:18,200 Speaker 1: I think getting great Greagshaw of course to join and 2190 01:46:18,240 --> 01:46:19,919 Speaker 1: Slade in the week I think that two AA matchup 2191 01:46:20,439 --> 01:46:23,000 Speaker 1: Park Heritage and Westview might be the best one all 2192 01:46:23,040 --> 01:46:25,519 Speaker 1: their losses. Those two teams are the four day schools. 2193 01:46:25,840 --> 01:46:28,040 Speaker 1: Park Heritage has been in the semi State each of 2194 01:46:28,120 --> 01:46:30,800 Speaker 1: the last three years. They lost at the Semi State 2195 01:46:30,880 --> 01:46:33,240 Speaker 1: round each of the last three years. They get over 2196 01:46:33,800 --> 01:46:36,639 Speaker 1: the hump this weekend. That'll be your second game over 2197 01:46:36,680 --> 01:46:39,559 Speaker 1: there at Gamebridgefield House. Approximate tip time twelve forty five 2198 01:46:39,640 --> 01:46:44,720 Speaker 1: coming up on Saturday. Speaking of gamebridge Field House, you 2199 01:46:44,800 --> 01:46:46,400 Speaker 1: will I don't know why I thought there was actually 2200 01:46:46,439 --> 01:46:48,719 Speaker 1: a swoosh there. I'm like pointing at Caleb for the swoosh. 2201 01:46:48,720 --> 01:46:51,439 Speaker 1: I'm thinking that we're back of the old back it September, 2202 01:46:51,720 --> 01:46:52,759 Speaker 1: back of the old studio. 2203 01:46:52,840 --> 01:46:53,040 Speaker 8: There. 2204 01:46:53,640 --> 01:46:55,920 Speaker 1: You will have Gamebridgefield that was occupied from the tenants. 2205 01:46:56,000 --> 01:46:59,639 Speaker 1: The Pacers will play Wednesday and Friday there at Lakers 2206 01:47:00,280 --> 01:47:05,360 Speaker 1: and Clippers, so notable certainly road talent in the building. 2207 01:47:05,479 --> 01:47:09,200 Speaker 1: Tonight they are in Orlando taking on the Magic Laker 2208 01:47:09,280 --> 01:47:13,599 Speaker 1: Wise Lebron Luca Right, I'm not missing anything to alarming 2209 01:47:13,640 --> 01:47:15,439 Speaker 1: from a health standpoint, No, I believe it should be 2210 01:47:15,479 --> 01:47:18,599 Speaker 1: available and they played tonight, so nopee back to back. 2211 01:47:18,640 --> 01:47:21,000 Speaker 1: I know a lot of people obviously worry about that. 2212 01:47:21,160 --> 01:47:23,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, rolling right now. I think they've won like nine straight, 2213 01:47:23,240 --> 01:47:24,280 Speaker 4: so I think they do want to kind of keep 2214 01:47:24,280 --> 01:47:24,920 Speaker 4: the streak alive. 2215 01:47:25,160 --> 01:47:27,800 Speaker 1: I assume playing for some important seating there. I think 2216 01:47:27,840 --> 01:47:30,000 Speaker 1: you want to get to the bottom part of that bracket, 2217 01:47:30,120 --> 01:47:33,519 Speaker 1: keep the thunder until the finals there. So again Wednesday, 2218 01:47:33,560 --> 01:47:39,240 Speaker 1: Friday here at home.

So always enjoy our chats with 2275 01:50:19,080 --> 01:50:21,240 Speaker 1: Bruce Weber obviously can go a lot of different places 2276 01:50:21,280 --> 01:50:24,320 Speaker 1: with him, but his relationship with Matt Painter certainly goes 2277 01:50:24,360 --> 01:50:29,920 Speaker 1: back to the old whatever those days are monthly days recruiting. Now, 2278 01:50:30,040 --> 01:50:31,800 Speaker 1: the man that's won five hundred games at Purdue and 2279 01:50:31,960 --> 01:50:34,640 Speaker 1: three straight Sweet sixteen, seven and nine years, is that 2280 01:50:34,720 --> 01:50:35,880 Speaker 1: the most? That's got to be the most. 2281 01:50:35,960 --> 01:50:36,080 Speaker 7: Right? 2282 01:50:36,280 --> 01:50:38,720 Speaker 1: Do we have anybody else last nine years that have 2283 01:50:38,800 --> 01:50:39,840 Speaker 1: ben It's more Sweet sixteen? 2284 01:50:39,880 --> 01:50:42,640 Speaker 4: I have to look it up. Maybe Gonzaga didn't they 2285 01:50:42,680 --> 01:50:43,479 Speaker 4: have makeing they. 2286 01:50:45,040 --> 01:50:45,679 Speaker 1: On those lists. 2287 01:50:45,760 --> 01:50:49,599 Speaker 4: Yeah, But to give Rob some credit here, it does 2288 01:50:49,720 --> 01:50:51,479 Speaker 4: he like the five hundreds win was kind of buried 2289 01:50:51,479 --> 01:50:55,640 Speaker 4: by everything else. But and again knowing Matt Painter, he 2290 01:50:55,680 --> 01:50:57,880 Speaker 4: probably won't even care about the actual number, and they're 2291 01:50:57,880 --> 01:51:00,519 Speaker 4: like the threshold. But that is a lot of wins 2292 01:51:00,920 --> 01:51:04,760 Speaker 4: at one program, and you think about what he hasn't done, 2293 01:51:05,240 --> 01:51:08,719 Speaker 4: which is won the national championship. But boy, everything else 2294 01:51:09,479 --> 01:51:12,360 Speaker 4: is pristine. That's why you talked about it last week, Kevin, 2295 01:51:13,520 --> 01:51:16,640 Speaker 4: he probably is deserving. And I say that term in 2296 01:51:16,720 --> 01:51:20,040 Speaker 4: air quotes because I'm like sports is finicky with what 2297 01:51:20,360 --> 01:51:23,400 Speaker 4: is deserving or not. But if there is somebody who 2298 01:51:24,720 --> 01:51:27,120 Speaker 4: deserves to have that crown jewel, it is him. Yeah. 2299 01:51:27,360 --> 01:51:29,240 Speaker 1: You know, for those that missed that combo, you said 2300 01:51:29,280 --> 01:51:31,400 Speaker 1: it last week, Matt Paynter or Purdue Rick Carlile with 2301 01:51:31,760 --> 01:51:33,800 Speaker 1: with the Pacers, you know what they've meant to their 2302 01:51:33,880 --> 01:51:37,080 Speaker 1: respective program in France. Yeah, for sure, you know, obviously 2303 01:51:37,200 --> 01:51:40,160 Speaker 1: Rick has the title, but it just seems like, you know, 2304 01:51:40,320 --> 01:51:42,679 Speaker 1: if you walked up to random NBA fan and said 2305 01:51:42,760 --> 01:51:46,200 Speaker 1: Rick Carlile, they probably say Pacers. Yeah, and obviously you 2306 01:51:46,320 --> 01:51:49,360 Speaker 1: walk up to Matt Paynter. Of course, it's definitely due. 2307 01:51:49,400 --> 01:51:51,040 Speaker 1: It is funny because they have brought it up on 2308 01:51:51,080 --> 01:51:52,680 Speaker 1: some of these broadcasts. You know, he grew up the 2309 01:51:52,800 --> 01:51:55,640 Speaker 1: Indiana fan and you know, Matt hasn't shied away from 2310 01:51:55,680 --> 01:51:57,720 Speaker 1: that when people have asked him about pad of you know, 2311 01:51:57,800 --> 01:52:00,280 Speaker 1: he grew up the AAU team made of Pat Night, 2312 01:52:00,439 --> 01:52:03,720 Speaker 1: and it just it is kind of funny when you 2313 01:52:03,760 --> 01:52:06,639 Speaker 1: think about it from that aspect to it. So Rob 2314 01:52:06,680 --> 01:52:10,120 Speaker 1: Blackman voiced the boilers On with us earlier. But you know, 2315 01:52:10,760 --> 01:52:12,240 Speaker 1: when I started with Rob, I hate to kind of 2316 01:52:12,280 --> 01:52:14,439 Speaker 1: ask such like an elementary question to start off, but 2317 01:52:15,280 --> 01:52:17,120 Speaker 1: I feel this way. When we get in the NCAA tournament, 2318 01:52:17,560 --> 01:52:22,840 Speaker 1: oftentimes our show comes after recapping two games, like we 2319 01:52:22,960 --> 01:52:25,639 Speaker 1: did our show Friday morning, Well what's happened since then? 2320 01:52:26,240 --> 01:52:28,519 Speaker 1: Braiden Smith set the Alzhime assist record. By the way, 2321 01:52:28,520 --> 01:52:30,400 Speaker 1: shout out to missus Smith. They showed her a nice 2322 01:52:30,400 --> 01:52:33,719 Speaker 1: so Michoelo Baltro. She was down in there as Braiden 2323 01:52:33,800 --> 01:52:36,120 Speaker 1: was going through the operations there Friday night. I don't 2324 01:52:36,120 --> 01:52:39,240 Speaker 1: blame her at all out take that edge off as well. 2325 01:52:39,680 --> 01:52:41,960 Speaker 1: But you have that Friday night and Braidon shoots are great, 2326 01:52:42,040 --> 01:52:44,840 Speaker 1: and Purdue rolls in the second half, and then you 2327 01:52:44,880 --> 01:52:48,200 Speaker 1: fast forward to yesterday. You're down. Brought up a stat 2328 01:52:48,240 --> 01:52:52,080 Speaker 1: earlier produced first NCAA tournament win down at half since 2329 01:52:52,120 --> 01:52:56,639 Speaker 1: they beat Texas A and M and overtime in twenty ten. 2330 01:52:57,160 --> 01:52:59,839 Speaker 1: You got to go back a long time since Purdue's 2331 01:52:59,840 --> 01:53:02,280 Speaker 1: been down at half of an NCAA tournament game. Came 2332 01:53:02,360 --> 01:53:04,559 Speaker 1: back in one. So you have that, you have the CJ. 2333 01:53:04,720 --> 01:53:07,120 Speaker 1: Cox injury, you have Braden Smith's struggle. You have Fletcher 2334 01:53:07,200 --> 01:53:09,080 Speaker 1: Lawyer have an unbelievable game. It's like, where do you 2335 01:53:09,080 --> 01:53:12,080 Speaker 1: even begin? Yeah, and then you have the big picture, 2336 01:53:12,120 --> 01:53:13,960 Speaker 1: of course, of the five hundred wins and here you 2337 01:53:14,040 --> 01:53:16,720 Speaker 1: are in another Sweet sixteen. You got a little bit 2338 01:53:16,720 --> 01:53:20,599 Speaker 1: of the Cam Heidi storyline with any of that. Dude, 2339 01:53:20,640 --> 01:53:22,960 Speaker 1: you think that is a story at all for Thursday, 2340 01:53:23,560 --> 01:53:26,400 Speaker 1: Cam Heidi having somewhat of a knowledge base about Purdue 2341 01:53:26,520 --> 01:53:28,280 Speaker 1: or do either. That's totally overblown. 2342 01:53:28,320 --> 01:53:30,840 Speaker 4: I think that'll be more overblown in our space, the 2343 01:53:30,960 --> 01:53:33,080 Speaker 4: media space, than it is in the actual x's and 2344 01:53:33,160 --> 01:53:37,160 Speaker 4: OL is a basketball and honestly, we've heard many coaches 2345 01:53:37,200 --> 01:53:40,360 Speaker 4: say this, Kevin, you can know their play, but can 2346 01:53:40,439 --> 01:53:43,240 Speaker 4: you stop it? And I'm not sure given all the 2347 01:53:43,360 --> 01:53:46,400 Speaker 4: actions and probably variations of a play that Purdue has 2348 01:53:46,800 --> 01:53:52,599 Speaker 4: and being arguably the best offense in the country, I mean, 2349 01:53:52,680 --> 01:53:54,840 Speaker 4: are you scared of anybody knowing what you're gonna do? 2350 01:53:55,720 --> 01:53:57,719 Speaker 4: You probably have a bunch of wrinkles to counter everything. 2351 01:53:58,160 --> 01:54:00,840 Speaker 4: And to me, it just comes down to, really, and 2352 01:54:00,880 --> 01:54:02,800 Speaker 4: I don't want to put it like in just this 2353 01:54:03,000 --> 01:54:07,439 Speaker 4: only vacuum, but kim Brad Smith make shots because if 2354 01:54:07,439 --> 01:54:10,080 Speaker 4: he makes shots, they can beat anybody, and they've done 2355 01:54:10,120 --> 01:54:12,280 Speaker 4: it so far with him kind of fluctuating the last 2356 01:54:12,320 --> 01:54:15,280 Speaker 4: couple weeks, I think with his jumper. But boy, if 2357 01:54:15,320 --> 01:54:18,320 Speaker 4: we see like that first round Branden where he's making 2358 01:54:18,360 --> 01:54:21,080 Speaker 4: the little leaners and he's making the open threes, I 2359 01:54:21,080 --> 01:54:22,840 Speaker 4: don't see how you can necessarily beat this team. 2360 01:54:24,040 --> 01:54:29,600 Speaker 1: James Boyd has all five of his player draft players 2361 01:54:29,760 --> 01:54:36,120 Speaker 1: still available, Cameron Boozer, Keaton Woggler, Darius Acuff, co O Pete, 2362 01:54:36,760 --> 01:54:41,840 Speaker 1: and Jeremy Fears. Now you are in second. Currently, Jeff 2363 01:54:42,080 --> 01:54:46,160 Speaker 1: Rickard has a twenty three point lead on James boy Now, 2364 01:54:46,240 --> 01:54:49,920 Speaker 1: Jeff bowed out with Grammy King Gonzaga and Alex Condon 2365 01:54:50,000 --> 01:54:54,680 Speaker 1: and Florida, So Jeff's down to three guys. You've got five. 2366 01:54:54,840 --> 01:55:00,160 Speaker 1: You would easily rather be you moving forward here? Uh, 2367 01:55:00,400 --> 01:55:01,720 Speaker 1: I guess who's bringing up the rear. 2368 01:55:04,080 --> 01:55:05,120 Speaker 4: It bet and I'd be Mark. 2369 01:55:06,080 --> 01:55:07,240 Speaker 1: I'm getting my ass kicked. 2370 01:55:07,600 --> 01:55:08,680 Speaker 4: How are you losing to it? 2371 01:55:08,840 --> 01:55:09,000 Speaker 8: Yeah? 2372 01:55:09,120 --> 01:55:10,880 Speaker 4: Well no, Actually, you got a couple guys that got 2373 01:55:10,920 --> 01:55:13,320 Speaker 4: delimited pretty early. Well, so I picked the losing to 2374 01:55:13,360 --> 01:55:14,800 Speaker 4: a guy who told the guy was injured. 2375 01:55:14,920 --> 01:55:17,600 Speaker 1: Well, my guy got injured ninety seconds into the far 2376 01:55:17,680 --> 01:55:21,040 Speaker 1: end of the first round game, Joshua Jefferson the Iowa State, 2377 01:55:21,480 --> 01:55:23,960 Speaker 1: you know, one of their best players. He scores three points, 2378 01:55:24,120 --> 01:55:26,080 Speaker 1: you know, hits his first bucket. I'm feeling good. I'm like, oh, 2379 01:55:26,120 --> 01:55:27,960 Speaker 1: it's gonna be nice here. Then he gets hurt. I'm like, ah, 2380 01:55:28,840 --> 01:55:31,960 Speaker 1: so here we are?

Why did 2383 01:55:35,640 --> 01:55:37,320 Speaker 1: I think Byu was going to get on a run here? 2384 01:55:37,480 --> 01:55:40,560 Speaker 5: I was in an eliminator pool and I picked b 2385 01:55:40,680 --> 01:55:41,879 Speaker 5: Uyu the first round. 2386 01:55:41,880 --> 01:55:42,600 Speaker 4: Did you yep? 2387 01:55:43,200 --> 01:55:46,200 Speaker 1: Well, Caleb, you and I can cheers to that.

So 2440 01:58:05,040 --> 01:58:08,240 Speaker 4: my understanding is that she would be available to speak 2441 01:58:08,480 --> 01:58:11,840 Speaker 4: along with Chris Ballard and Shane Stikeen. So you'll hear 2442 01:58:11,920 --> 01:58:15,920 Speaker 4: from those three for the first time since the draft combine, 2443 01:58:15,920 --> 01:58:18,160 Speaker 4: and first time for her since the end of the season. 2444 01:58:18,320 --> 01:58:21,040 Speaker 1: Now, I haven't been to an owners meeting in a minute, 2445 01:58:21,160 --> 01:58:23,760 Speaker 1: correct me if I'm wrong here. Usually do they still 2446 01:58:23,800 --> 01:58:25,120 Speaker 1: do like the coaches breakfast? 2447 01:58:25,640 --> 01:58:29,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, so we get in, I fly on Sunday Monday, 2448 01:58:30,040 --> 01:58:32,840 Speaker 4: it'll be NFC or AFC or whatever. They flip flop 2449 01:58:32,960 --> 01:58:36,880 Speaker 4: the days of which conference coaches are available. So I 2450 01:58:36,960 --> 01:58:39,960 Speaker 4: believe we always got the benefit of the doubt where 2451 01:58:41,040 --> 01:58:43,040 Speaker 4: the AFC coaches will go on that Monday, because that 2452 01:58:43,160 --> 01:58:45,200 Speaker 4: Monday night there's like a big party even stuff like that. 2453 01:58:45,240 --> 01:58:47,720 Speaker 4: People are out late and Tuesday you're just dragging. But 2454 01:58:47,760 --> 01:58:49,800 Speaker 4: I think they flipped it this year to where that 2455 01:58:49,960 --> 01:58:52,680 Speaker 4: Tuesday after late Monday, we might have to deal with 2456 01:58:52,720 --> 01:58:55,360 Speaker 4: the AFC coaches. But nevertheless, I am looking forward to 2457 01:58:55,480 --> 01:58:58,320 Speaker 4: talking to Carly. I do want to hear from her 2458 01:58:58,880 --> 01:59:03,840 Speaker 4: about this offseason and perhaps not only retaining Daniel and Aleck, 2459 01:59:03,960 --> 01:59:06,920 Speaker 4: but beyond that, what other move needs to be made 2460 01:59:07,000 --> 01:59:10,040 Speaker 4: to make this team better? Because that's the question that 2461 01:59:10,320 --> 01:59:12,440 Speaker 4: this fan base continues to ask, and it's a fair one. 2462 01:59:12,960 --> 01:59:14,120 Speaker 4: How have the Colts gotten better? 2463 01:59:14,560 --> 01:59:16,320 Speaker 1: And right now you have not one thing I was 2464 01:59:16,360 --> 01:59:19,120 Speaker 1: thinking about too this weekend quiet week in Colts moves. 2465 01:59:19,120 --> 01:59:21,720 Speaker 1: If you look at their cap space right now, it's plenty. 2466 01:59:21,880 --> 01:59:26,560 Speaker 1: They have plenty of that thirty some million. It might 2467 01:59:26,640 --> 01:59:28,920 Speaker 1: be a minor thing to some, but like, okay, what 2468 01:59:29,000 --> 01:59:30,880 Speaker 1: are they saving their cap space for? You know, that's 2469 01:59:30,960 --> 01:59:32,520 Speaker 1: kind of like a poppet place. Yeah, you know when 2470 01:59:32,520 --> 01:59:35,240 Speaker 1: you think about it, James, the Jets have the Colts 2471 01:59:35,320 --> 01:59:38,080 Speaker 1: pick that's what like sixteen overall that that's like what 2472 01:59:38,200 --> 01:59:40,640 Speaker 1: four or five million that usually you'd have to save for. 2473 01:59:41,120 --> 01:59:42,960 Speaker 1: You know, you have to allocate money for the first 2474 01:59:43,080 --> 01:59:45,760 Speaker 1: year of that rookie contra, right, you don't have to 2475 01:59:45,840 --> 01:59:47,680 Speaker 1: do that now. You still need some money for the draft, 2476 01:59:48,360 --> 01:59:51,440 Speaker 1: but you know, that's like a little bit of a 2477 01:59:51,800 --> 01:59:54,000 Speaker 1: chunk of your cap space, right that you don't even 2478 01:59:54,080 --> 01:59:57,920 Speaker 1: have to save there. So it really does seem like 2479 01:59:58,000 --> 01:59:59,920 Speaker 1: and I'll be curious what Chris Boward says to you guys. 2480 02:00:00,640 --> 02:00:02,919 Speaker 1: You know, it really just seems like it was Trey Hendrickson. 2481 02:00:03,000 --> 02:00:05,680 Speaker 1: And then if not, we're not really gonna do anything 2482 02:00:06,040 --> 02:00:08,560 Speaker 1: of note. Yeah, at pass rush, I'll be curious his 2483 02:00:08,640 --> 02:00:09,920 Speaker 1: thoughts on that coming up here in a week. 2484 02:00:10,080 --> 02:00:13,560 Speaker 4: Definitely want to ask him is trading for one a possibility? 2485 02:00:13,840 --> 02:00:16,560 Speaker 4: And of course he might give me the most political 2486 02:00:16,600 --> 02:00:18,880 Speaker 4: answer ever where he doesn't really answer, but it is 2487 02:00:18,920 --> 02:00:21,400 Speaker 4: a question that has come up. Man, the more I 2488 02:00:21,480 --> 02:00:24,240 Speaker 4: think about it and trying to win now and thinking 2489 02:00:24,320 --> 02:00:27,640 Speaker 4: that you can pounce on whatever you had at the 2490 02:00:27,640 --> 02:00:30,640 Speaker 4: beginning of last year, is it worth giving up a 2491 02:00:30,720 --> 02:00:33,520 Speaker 4: top one hundred pick potentially to go get Jonathan Garnard 2492 02:00:33,920 --> 02:00:36,880 Speaker 4: or someone of that caliber who's a proven commodity in 2493 02:00:37,040 --> 02:00:41,480 Speaker 4: this league. So a lot of decisions still awaits, But boy, 2494 02:00:41,840 --> 02:00:44,360 Speaker 4: I feel like the avenues to finding good answers are 2495 02:00:44,480 --> 02:00:45,080 Speaker 4: kind of dwindling. 2496 02:00:45,400 --> 02:00:47,600 Speaker 1: All right, we'll do it one final time here on 2497 02:00:47,720 --> 02:00:50,280 Speaker 1: a Monday fan morning show, Kevin bow and James Boyd, 2498 02:00:50,440 --> 02:00:56,480 Speaker 1: Caleb Zuber, Bruce Weber gonna join us coming up tomorrow. 2499 02:00:56,800 --> 02:01:00,760 Speaker 1: Is just listening to the Westwood one called George Cornett 2500 02:01:01,400 --> 02:01:04,520 Speaker 1: was on the color if you will of that call, 2501 02:01:04,600 --> 02:01:06,200 Speaker 1: and he mentioned some of the effect of like, you know, 2502 02:01:06,280 --> 02:01:09,440 Speaker 1: Purdue won with their B game. Braiden Smith, you know, 2503 02:01:09,520 --> 02:01:12,400 Speaker 1: played a played a D game, which I do think 2504 02:01:12,480 --> 02:01:16,000 Speaker 1: those grades probably for Braiden pretty accurate. You know, Purdue 2505 02:01:16,080 --> 02:01:18,640 Speaker 1: B game. Honestly, the only reason I'd probably knock the 2506 02:01:18,720 --> 02:01:21,840 Speaker 1: letter grade is because of maybe Braiden's performance, but pretty 2507 02:01:21,880 --> 02:01:23,920 Speaker 1: shot the hell out of it. Yeah, It's not like 2508 02:01:23,960 --> 02:01:26,600 Speaker 1: pred off night shooting it now. Granted, their turnover number 2509 02:01:26,640 --> 02:01:28,200 Speaker 1: was probably a little bit higher than they would want, 2510 02:01:28,280 --> 02:01:30,640 Speaker 1: But I guess James A. It's kind of funny and 2511 02:01:32,280 --> 02:01:36,400 Speaker 1: nitpicking tournament wins. I'm always torn on It's like, yeah, 2512 02:01:36,800 --> 02:01:39,800 Speaker 1: isn't it just surviving advance? Isn't it like somebody's saying yesterday, 2513 02:01:39,880 --> 02:01:41,880 Speaker 1: like with the weather we had, like, oh man, I 2514 02:01:41,920 --> 02:01:42,640 Speaker 1: wish it was fall. 2515 02:01:44,000 --> 02:01:44,480 Speaker 3: Shut up? 2516 02:01:45,160 --> 02:01:46,760 Speaker 1: Eighty agrees in march enjoy it. 2517 02:01:47,720 --> 02:01:51,440 Speaker 4: I think in regards to the player criticism, you have 2518 02:01:51,520 --> 02:01:54,520 Speaker 4: to look at what that player has done and is 2519 02:01:54,560 --> 02:01:56,880 Speaker 4: there anybody you trust more to bounce back from a 2520 02:01:57,040 --> 02:02:01,480 Speaker 4: poor game than Braiden Smith. So if he were someone else, 2521 02:02:02,040 --> 02:02:04,680 Speaker 4: you were Joe Smith and he had, you know, been 2522 02:02:04,720 --> 02:02:07,440 Speaker 4: coughing it up as of late and not played well, 2523 02:02:07,920 --> 02:02:09,920 Speaker 4: I would feel differently. But He's played in so many 2524 02:02:10,000 --> 02:02:13,280 Speaker 4: big games, big moments, and from what I've heard and read, 2525 02:02:13,520 --> 02:02:17,040 Speaker 4: he is so much of a self scout, so much 2526 02:02:17,080 --> 02:02:20,680 Speaker 4: of a self critique artist, that you have to expect 2527 02:02:20,720 --> 02:02:22,920 Speaker 4: him to play much better than he did in that 2528 02:02:23,000 --> 02:02:26,920 Speaker 4: second tournament game. But yeah, I caught myself saying that 2529 02:02:27,000 --> 02:02:30,040 Speaker 4: on social media right after the game, Like, am I moron? 2530 02:02:30,200 --> 02:02:33,280 Speaker 4: For being like, oh you know what, that wasn't good 2531 02:02:33,400 --> 02:02:34,680 Speaker 4: enough to really go further? 2532 02:02:34,800 --> 02:02:38,160 Speaker 1: Well they did, so, Yeah, I guess it is fair 2533 02:02:38,240 --> 02:02:41,400 Speaker 1: to say, like, if you play like that, you're not 2534 02:02:41,520 --> 02:02:42,560 Speaker 1: gonna win four more games. 2535 02:02:42,600 --> 02:02:46,560 Speaker 4: Rights, But it's unfair to say you're going to continue 2536 02:02:46,560 --> 02:02:47,040 Speaker 4: to play like that? 2537 02:02:47,440 --> 02:02:51,360 Speaker 1: Right? And so also part of winning, particularly in marches, 2538 02:02:51,520 --> 02:02:55,800 Speaker 1: sometimes you don't have your A stuff, But can you 2539 02:02:55,960 --> 02:02:59,240 Speaker 1: still deliver? Honestly, we've gotten into this cults argument. Shane 2540 02:02:59,280 --> 02:03:01,080 Speaker 1: Sichon was spot on at the Combine a month ago 2541 02:03:01,160 --> 02:03:04,160 Speaker 1: and said, we have to find ways to win ugly more. Yeah, 2542 02:03:04,600 --> 02:03:09,040 Speaker 1: ugly happens. You're not going to be perfect for seventeen 2543 02:03:09,040 --> 02:03:10,800 Speaker 1: weeks out of the season, thirty some games out of 2544 02:03:10,840 --> 02:03:12,760 Speaker 1: a college basketball year. Can you win when you don't 2545 02:03:12,760 --> 02:03:15,720 Speaker 1: have your best stuff? And I think in particular did 2546 02:03:15,760 --> 02:03:19,120 Speaker 1: that yesterday. What will be your guys, lasting memory from 2547 02:03:19,160 --> 02:03:23,600 Speaker 1: this opening weekend tournament? Lied, your lasting memory. 2548 02:03:23,840 --> 02:03:29,240 Speaker 4: Will be what, for me selfishly is probably the first 2549 02:03:29,320 --> 02:03:34,760 Speaker 4: high point win where Chase Johnson shot that thing from China. 2550 02:03:35,560 --> 02:03:37,480 Speaker 4: I mean when they were down a and he pulls 2551 02:03:37,600 --> 02:03:40,400 Speaker 4: up from forty feet and just straight through the well 2552 02:03:40,440 --> 02:03:43,320 Speaker 4: and they win that game. Oh my gosh, that to 2553 02:03:43,440 --> 02:03:46,760 Speaker 4: me was like, welcome to March, We're here. It's glorious. Yeah, 2554 02:03:46,840 --> 02:03:49,200 Speaker 4: his layup the only two point shot that he's I mean, 2555 02:03:49,520 --> 02:03:53,680 Speaker 4: you can't split any better than that, right, Caleb, I'll. 2556 02:03:53,560 --> 02:03:57,080 Speaker 5: Go again selfishly, James, after you just said that was 2557 02:03:57,160 --> 02:04:01,680 Speaker 5: your selfish take. Halftime of Duke Sianna pacing around at 2558 02:04:01,720 --> 02:04:04,880 Speaker 5: my other place of work, not being able to focus 2559 02:04:04,960 --> 02:04:05,920 Speaker 5: on anything else. 2560 02:04:06,240 --> 02:04:08,480 Speaker 4: I thought about you. That was the longest halftime in 2561 02:04:08,520 --> 02:04:08,880 Speaker 4: my life. 2562 02:04:09,320 --> 02:04:14,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, and also just of course the Vanderbilt Nebraska game, 2563 02:04:14,240 --> 02:04:16,480 Speaker 5: and like even I know we've talked about that shot 2564 02:04:16,520 --> 02:04:20,560 Speaker 5: almost going in, but that was just like an amazing game. 2565 02:04:20,840 --> 02:04:24,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, the whole time it was like a 2566 02:04:24,280 --> 02:04:26,440 Speaker 1: road environment for Vanderbilt. Yeah, I thought they hit some 2567 02:04:26,600 --> 02:04:30,600 Speaker 1: huge shots. Yeah, they grew out. Boy that I don't 2568 02:04:30,640 --> 02:04:33,400 Speaker 1: know how to measure it. Maybe the sports science people. 2569 02:04:33,200 --> 02:04:33,800 Speaker 3: We need to do it. 2570 02:04:33,840 --> 02:04:34,440 Speaker 8: On ESPN. 2571 02:04:35,120 --> 02:04:36,760 Speaker 3: I was where that shot had a better. 2572 02:04:36,680 --> 02:04:38,880 Speaker 1: Chance to go in than than Gordon Haywards did. And 2573 02:04:38,920 --> 02:04:41,120 Speaker 1: I think back to Gordon Hayward tried a lot. Yeah, 2574 02:04:41,640 --> 02:04:45,960 Speaker 1: those are both great. That flurry of Kentucky Santa Clara. 2575 02:04:46,000 --> 02:04:48,520 Speaker 1: I was on with Jake when that happened. And I 2576 02:04:48,800 --> 02:04:52,680 Speaker 1: was ahead of him from he was a prime forty seven. 2577 02:04:53,160 --> 02:04:55,080 Speaker 1: So I'm watching my basement trying to get away from 2578 02:04:55,080 --> 02:04:56,280 Speaker 1: the kids. I'm like, all right, I need to kind 2579 02:04:56,280 --> 02:05:00,320 Speaker 1: of quiet down here. And I have the audible reaction 2580 02:05:00,440 --> 02:05:03,720 Speaker 1: to the Santa Clara shot, and you know, now it's awkward. 2581 02:05:03,800 --> 02:05:05,960 Speaker 1: And here I am doing a live radio segment and 2582 02:05:06,080 --> 02:05:09,560 Speaker 1: I you know, I do one of those, and then 2583 02:05:10,040 --> 02:05:13,040 Speaker 1: three seconds later I do it again, and just naturally, 2584 02:05:13,200 --> 02:05:16,160 Speaker 1: my octave like rises in Jake. I don't think Jake 2585 02:05:16,200 --> 02:05:20,120 Speaker 1: has seen the first Santa Clara shot yet, so then 2586 02:05:20,200 --> 02:05:24,760 Speaker 1: he reacts to what he's seeing now and how with 2587 02:05:24,960 --> 02:05:27,440 Speaker 1: him retelling the story at the same time, I can 2588 02:05:27,480 --> 02:05:31,560 Speaker 1: hear my neighbor going nuts. And he's a diehard Kentucky fan. 2589 02:05:31,760 --> 02:05:32,720 Speaker 4: His heart. 2590 02:05:34,080 --> 02:05:36,560 Speaker 1: His parents were in town, so that's great. At the 2591 02:05:36,680 --> 02:05:40,320 Speaker 1: end of that flurry, like you get the three go 2592 02:05:40,520 --> 02:05:45,600 Speaker 1: ahead tie shots with no stoppages, you know that that 2593 02:05:45,680 --> 02:05:48,600 Speaker 1: will definitely be a memory obviously. Iowa. I mean just 2594 02:05:48,760 --> 02:05:51,720 Speaker 1: that that final play Boy, it seems like there's some 2595 02:05:51,840 --> 02:05:53,920 Speaker 1: real bad blood, which I love to see between the 2596 02:05:54,000 --> 02:05:56,040 Speaker 1: Iowa coaching staff and the Florida coaching sound. I know 2597 02:05:56,080 --> 02:05:58,160 Speaker 1: Todd Golden seems to rub some people the wrong way, 2598 02:05:58,200 --> 02:06:03,000 Speaker 1: which I'm all for. That was right, It like patino 2599 02:06:03,240 --> 02:06:08,120 Speaker 1: stoic nature at the game winner, little little Jay Wright 2600 02:06:08,960 --> 02:06:12,800 Speaker 1: reminiscing there of Rick Patino on that game winner. 2601 02:06:12,880 --> 02:06:15,080 Speaker 5: Here's what I was thinking about this weekend because like 2602 02:06:15,720 --> 02:06:20,440 Speaker 5: just watching Patino versus Bill Self, Like why, I mean, 2603 02:06:20,520 --> 02:06:22,920 Speaker 5: you guys could probably answer this better than I can't. 2604 02:06:23,600 --> 02:06:27,720 Speaker 5: Just why is it that we have these personalities in 2605 02:06:27,800 --> 02:06:30,760 Speaker 5: college sports? And then I would say maybe the NFL, 2606 02:06:31,200 --> 02:06:35,120 Speaker 5: NFL with the coaches specifically, Like it's just real drama. 2607 02:06:35,200 --> 02:06:37,560 Speaker 5: You don't get that in the NBA, you don't get 2608 02:06:37,600 --> 02:06:40,920 Speaker 5: that in baseball, but it really exists in college. You know, 2609 02:06:41,320 --> 02:06:46,000 Speaker 5: they're just so big personalities that it makes makes it 2610 02:06:46,160 --> 02:06:49,720 Speaker 5: must see TV, and and it heightens heightens the importance 2611 02:06:49,760 --> 02:06:51,640 Speaker 5: of these things. Like I'm watching Patino and Bill Self. 2612 02:06:51,680 --> 02:06:54,520 Speaker 5: Actually I'm like, this is awesome. This game is ugly, 2613 02:06:54,880 --> 02:06:57,200 Speaker 5: but it's okay because it's these two brands and these 2614 02:06:57,240 --> 02:06:58,320 Speaker 5: two guys going at it. 2615 02:06:58,640 --> 02:07:01,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, they're titans of the sport. And Patino, I mean, 2616 02:07:02,400 --> 02:07:06,320 Speaker 4: that's the greatest coach is always more subjective, I think 2617 02:07:06,400 --> 02:07:09,320 Speaker 4: because of we're not subjective. It's hard to define it 2618 02:07:09,440 --> 02:07:11,800 Speaker 4: because you can look at John Wooden and said, well, 2619 02:07:11,800 --> 02:07:13,440 Speaker 4: that's the greatest, cause he's one of the most. But 2620 02:07:13,880 --> 02:07:16,680 Speaker 4: when it comes to best coach, he's up there man 2621 02:07:16,760 --> 02:07:17,720 Speaker 4: with anybody. I think. 2622 02:07:18,520 --> 02:07:21,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think college sports tend to have the coaches 2623 02:07:21,880 --> 02:07:24,200 Speaker 1: the face of the program a little bit more once 2624 02:07:24,240 --> 02:07:27,240 Speaker 1: you get in pro sports, I think kind of player driven, well, 2625 02:07:27,320 --> 02:07:30,120 Speaker 1: especially in today's age, right right, So I think that's 2626 02:07:30,160 --> 02:07:32,080 Speaker 1: probably why. And you know, we touched on this a 2627 02:07:32,080 --> 02:07:33,880 Speaker 1: little bit and we'll see how the news cycle plays 2628 02:07:33,880 --> 02:07:36,160 Speaker 1: out today. But it's just wild to sit here. You 2629 02:07:36,240 --> 02:07:38,880 Speaker 1: hear Bill Self's comments post game, probably more health related 2630 02:07:38,920 --> 02:07:41,680 Speaker 1: than anything, and then some of the rumblings in Chapel Hill. 2631 02:07:42,080 --> 02:07:43,840 Speaker 1: I mean, could we be doing the show tomorrow and 2632 02:07:43,920 --> 02:07:46,440 Speaker 1: have North Carolina and Kansas both both open? Yeah, I 2633 02:07:46,480 --> 02:07:48,120 Speaker 1: don't know if Bill self maybe is ready to make 2634 02:07:48,160 --> 02:07:51,240 Speaker 1: that decision this quickly, but you know, in this day 2635 02:07:51,240 --> 02:07:53,720 Speaker 1: and age, not to compare the two necessarily, but like 2636 02:07:54,160 --> 02:07:56,160 Speaker 1: you know, the fad modest situation. You know, I don't 2637 02:07:56,160 --> 02:07:59,160 Speaker 1: know if it's apples to apples, but it'll be interesting. 2638 02:07:59,240 --> 02:08:00,880 Speaker 1: By the way, we'll have a ball State's new coach, 2639 02:08:00,960 --> 02:08:04,280 Speaker 1: Chris CapCo on at some point this week, think Wednesday 2640 02:08:04,320 --> 02:08:06,720 Speaker 1: or Thursday. Not a lot of ties to the Indy area, 2641 02:08:06,800 --> 02:08:09,480 Speaker 1: doesn't seem with him. He was at SMU previously trying 2642 02:08:09,480 --> 02:08:13,080 Speaker 1: to end a twenty six year tournament drought for the 2643 02:08:13,160 --> 02:08:15,760 Speaker 1: Ball State Cardinals. And then we'll wait. Butler, you know, 2644 02:08:16,320 --> 02:08:18,640 Speaker 1: people continue to throw out the name of Michael Shrewsbury, 2645 02:08:18,720 --> 02:08:22,440 Speaker 1: which that would lead to obviously a domino effect off 2646 02:08:22,520 --> 02:08:24,840 Speaker 1: of that. But that's what this time of year can 2647 02:08:24,920 --> 02:08:27,360 Speaker 1: be about as well. But here in our state will 2648 02:08:27,360 --> 02:08:30,080 Speaker 1: continue to talk about the Boilers this day. Head out 2649 02:08:30,120 --> 02:08:34,640 Speaker 1: tomorrow to San Jose Thursday, seven to ten, seven and 2650 02:08:34,680 --> 02:08:36,200 Speaker 1: a half point favorite against Texas. 2651 02:08:36,920 --> 02:08:39,600 Speaker 4: Can't wait for that one. This is Cam Heidie's revenge game. 2652 02:08:41,240 --> 02:08:43,000 Speaker 1: Does he play enough minutes for that? The guy like 2653 02:08:43,080 --> 02:08:45,040 Speaker 1: starts and then he plays like fifteen minutes. But you 2654 02:08:45,160 --> 02:08:47,520 Speaker 1: know that's gonna be a headline somewhere rest Saturday in 2655 02:08:47,560 --> 02:08:49,240 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl, Like he starts and comes out. 2656 02:08:50,440 --> 02:08:51,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I gotta find, Like I say, you gotta find 2657 02:08:52,000 --> 02:08:53,720 Speaker 4: those plays that are Cam Heidi proof. 2658 02:08:53,800 --> 02:08:55,840 Speaker 1: Would Heidi guard Braden Smith? 2659 02:08:56,560 --> 02:09:00,880 Speaker 4: I think it's a possibility. Seriously putting lengthy athleticism that 2660 02:09:00,960 --> 02:09:03,120 Speaker 4: seems to be the formula that pro has got some 2661 02:09:03,240 --> 02:09:06,640 Speaker 4: other long Yeah, but padies at them why not. 2662 02:09:07,320 --> 02:09:10,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, we'll certainly focus on that reminder again tomorrow. 2663 02:09:11,000 --> 02:09:14,520 Speaker 1: Bruce Weber going to join us in the nine o'clock hour, 2664 02:09:15,120 --> 02:09:18,600 Speaker 1: hopefully have Rick Carlisle as well.
