1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,560
Speaker 1: For the next several days. We are focusing on the

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 1: company part of Query and Company because he very wisely

3
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 1: has scheduled himself a vacation around the Colts bye week.

4
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,440
Speaker 1: That is how it's done. Now. Clearly the master of

5
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:21,079
Speaker 1: said planning family planning at this juncture is Kevin Bowen,

6
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 1: because he had his wife's schedule a pregnancy right before

7
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: the Colts had their By now this is the part

8
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 1: where I kind of do the math for you. By

9
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: the way, my name is Greg Regstraw. Healoel are you

10
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 1: you get to hear me tomorrow today and even next Tuesday.

11
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,040
Speaker 1: Derek Schultz will be in this chair on Monday afternoon

12
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,640
Speaker 1: and Jke will be back on Wednesday afternoon, so you

13
00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:47,639
Speaker 1: can plan your listening habits accordingly. But to go back

14
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,839
Speaker 1: to the happy mister and missus Bowen, I texted that

15
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 1: this week. I said, by the way, you should take

16
00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: full credit for planning to have a child around the

17
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: Colts bye week, even though if you start doing the

18
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 1: math in your head. Mister and Missus Bowen had their

19
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: celebratory event about three months before the Colts schedule is announced.

20
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 1: But I'll let him save that joke for the morning show.

21
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,760
Speaker 1: Hope you're doing well, and you may be wondering, Gee,

22
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 1: the Colts are going into a bye week, what are

23
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 1: you going to talk about? Well, in sports talk radio parlance,

24
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: you still find a way to talk about the National

25
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: Football League, and we will do that, at least for

26
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: a segment that I'm sure it'll be brought up in

27
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: more casual conversation throughout the course of the program. But

28
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 1: Matt Taylor will be on the show at one o'clock.

29
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: And I texted Addie earlier this week. Believe it or not,

30
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 1: there was actually a level of planning that went into

31
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 1: these programs on Thursday in front of mean these were

32
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 1: a good three or four text that went by from

33
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: the two of us over the course of three or

34
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: four days, and I said, listen, I love to have

35
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: Matt on the show. He's normally on every Thursday. But

36
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: if the man actually wants to take a day off,

37
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 1: that is perfectly fine. It is a bye week. The Colts'

38
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: offices kind of go dark for several days as they show.

39
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: People have been going at this full bore hardcore since

40
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 1: at least July twentieth, so that's three weeks of preseason football.

41
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 1: A couple of weeks of training camp. You can get

42
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 1: a little bit of downtime around Labor Day and then

43
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: it's a blur. You were in another whole other country

44
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: in continent, like by this time, you know last week,

45
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 1: It's like, now I want to do the show, so

46
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 1: Matt will join us at one o'clock. There is plenty

47
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,240
Speaker 1: of other football that we will be discussing on the show,

48
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: and something that is near and dear to my heart.

49
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: I am entering my fifth year as the voice of

50
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 1: the Monan Bell Classic, and this is easily in the

51
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: top five of all the things I get to do

52
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: on a yearly basis. There is a sports bucket list

53
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,560
Speaker 1: and for the next time I fill in when it

54
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,799
Speaker 1: is not so busy around here, as you will hear

55
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: from the variety of topics that we will have to

56
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: discuss on the show today at some point in time,

57
00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: like say, Eddie, if I'm filling in like in late April,

58
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 1: early May and it doesn't look like there's going to

59
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: be the Pacers playoff push that we had a season

60
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 1: ago for this basketball team, file this down for future use.

61
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 1: We will officially put together a sports bucket list, because

62
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 1: we will always say things like, hey, you should put

63
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 1: this on your bucket list. It'd probably be nice at

64
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 1: some point in time if we actually made a list

65
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: when we do, Attending a Monon Bell game is something

66
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: you need to do. If you're a Wabashlam or a

67
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: DePaul Alum or relative of one or the other. Trust me,

68
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 1: it's already on your list. You've probably been there, and

69
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: once you go once, you want to go back each

70
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: and every year. But given how good these two teams are,

71
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: like they're both ranked in the Division three Top twenty five,

72
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: and that the winner of the game will likely not guaranteed,

73
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 1: but likely clinch a berth in the Division three postseason,

74
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: and if it is depaw, they would do so for

75
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: a fifth consecutive year. And given the fact that, yeah,

76
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: I realized it snowed last week, it's supposed to be

77
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: like seventy and Sonny on Saturday, suns Out guns out

78
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: in terms of the weather forecast at Little Giant Stadium,

79
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: I've actually worn like a sweater vesta's part of my

80
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: shirt and tie ensemble. I think I got to ditch

81
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,480
Speaker 1: the vest this time around. Now I wear blue when

82
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 1: I'm doing that game because me and the officials are

83
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: supposed to be the only neutral folks involved in the

84
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: actual game. Like literally, I have got a DePaul color

85
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: commentator in brad Walkamerca. I have got a Wabash color

86
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,560
Speaker 1: commentator in terms of Steve Hoffman, Me and Kelsey Casper

87
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,359
Speaker 1: on the sidelines, we're the neutrals. Everybody else gets to

88
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: pick a side in that game, and that has to

89
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: even go well what I wear from a color standpoint,

90
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 1: so much like preseason football blue suit Saturday. Coming up

91
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: for me with the Monon Bell game is sc Sportsnetwork

92
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:51,279
Speaker 1: dot Com, YouTube, Twitter, Twitch, Apple, TV, Roku watch parties

93
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: literally across the globe, and I will bring that passion

94
00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:00,320
Speaker 1: for the Monon Bell to the airwaves today. Will be

95
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: joined by both head coaches Jake Gilbert at one point thirty.

96
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,359
Speaker 1: We're at deats of DePaul coming up at two. So

97
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 1: if you're a small college person, if you're a Wabash

98
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,679
Speaker 1: or Depau person, this is the day for you, because

99
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: your beloved event in the Monon Bell Classic gets the

100
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: attention it so justly deserves on the program today. Now

101
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,280
Speaker 1: oftentimes I have used the backdrop of the Bell game,

102
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: whether I was the television voice of it or just

103
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 1: kind of talking about it in previous years, of saying, well,

104
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,039
Speaker 1: it's great that we have this high level of football

105
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 1: because at the Division IE level, normally by the time

106
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 1: I at to November, we're focused on the basketball season. Obviously,

107
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,919
Speaker 1: that is no longer the case, and that was no

108
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 1: longer the case for a lot of years at Purdue. Obviously,

109
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 1: now it is no longer the case in Bloomington, as

110
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:56,160
Speaker 1: the Hoosiers are ten to zero, And even though there

111
00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 1: has been some modicum of success against Wisconsin, and by

112
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 1: some I mean like I can think about, you know,

113
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: like Leron Williams and Antoine Randall ll going off. I

114
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 1: can think about a Jerry DeNardo win against Wisconsin. I

115
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,279
Speaker 1: think one of his eight that he had as the

116
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,719
Speaker 1: head coach at Indiana University. I can think of the

117
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 1: Tom Allen winning the COVID year against Wisconsin. But I

118
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 1: could also think about eighty three stinking points that were

119
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 1: scored by the Badgers at Camp Randall. These days, life's

120
00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 1: a little different. Luke Fickel is on job status watch

121
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 1: seemingly every Saturday, and if there is a guy that

122
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 1: has been I'm not sure if cruel, but uncaring sometimes

123
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 1: about putting some points on the board like sixty six

124
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: last year against Purdue. Kurt Signetti would be that guy.

125
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:02,159
Speaker 1: So in years gone by, worried about Wisconsin running it

126
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 1: up against Indiana. Now Wisconsin defensively has actually been pretty

127
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,919
Speaker 1: solid this year. Offensive they have been dreadful. They found

128
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: a way to win their first Big ten game last week.

129
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 1: Because the stat we were throwing out before the Penn

130
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: State game was that the last three opponents Indiana was

131
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: going to play had the same amount of Big ten

132
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 1: wins that Eddie and I have had so far on

133
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,239
Speaker 1: the season. That is no longer the case that trio

134
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: of teams now has one more Big Ten win than

135
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 1: Eddie and I have had so far on the season.

136
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: So sconsin coming up Saturday at noon, Haylon Black will

137
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,119
Speaker 1: be joining us on the program, one of the two

138
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: star running backs for the Indiana Hoosiers. And again, the

139
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 1: Indiana story to me is one of the more captivating stories,

140
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: not just in local sports, but in the landscape of

141
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: the sports that get the attention of the talking heads,

142
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: the Twitter sphere, the blog of sphere, whatever the way

143
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 1: that you consume sports. Obviously we are fascinated by it

144
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: here because it's a team that has never been successful

145
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: in our backyard. The tailgate was always the place to go,

146
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: not exactly the game. It's funny how success changes those things.

147
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 1: And now every seat is full. And now I'm not

148
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: sure if this, frankly has been talked about a lot

149
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 1: on these airwaves, frankly, down in Monroe County, on campus,

150
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,559
Speaker 1: whatever the case may be, but there's been a lot

151
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:39,320
Speaker 1: of money spent on renovations and updating and adding more

152
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:44,559
Speaker 1: seats and suites and offices and facilities, etc. To eye

153
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 1: you football. And now you're starting to think, hey, wait

154
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: a minute, if success isn't fleeting, if you've backed up

155
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 1: eleven and two and making the Collage Football Playoff by

156
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,559
Speaker 1: being the current number two team in the country and

157
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:04,320
Speaker 1: being undefeated and seemingly it would take something of a

158
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 1: monumental upset for you to not be in the Big

159
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 1: Ten Football Championship and or the Collvitch Football Playoff, you

160
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 1: gotta start adding on Memorial Stadium again. Do you got

161
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 1: to start making this like a giant erector set like

162
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: you have seen in so many other college football programs.

163
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 1: Like last week playing in Happy Valley, you know you

164
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: can kind of like you know, carbon date the stadium,

165
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: you can look around and say, well, that was here

166
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 1: for Earth. They've built that on top of that. Neiland

167
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: Stadium in Knoxville is kind of like that. You literally

168
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 1: see them in closing an end. If you've watched any

169
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: Missouri football games this year, you kind of wonder is

170
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 1: that next? Because all of a sudden there is now

171
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 1: far more than they demand for fifty five thousand is

172
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 1: seats to go watch the Indiana football game. Because people

173
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,160
Speaker 1: aren't staying in Dune Meadow. They're getting their butt to

174
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: the game because they want to see a butt kicking

175
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: administered by suddenly everybody's new favorite football team. So there's

176
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: a lot of different way that we can kind of

177
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 1: take the conversation. I have given Eddie a homework assignment,

178
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,680
Speaker 1: maybe not for Friday, maybe by next Tuesday about I

179
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: think a unique perspective talking about Indiana football. But Kaylon

180
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 1: Black will be joining us coming up in the two

181
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: o'clock hour of the show. One other guest that we

182
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 1: will have on the program today, and in fact, he

183
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 1: will be joining us in the next segment of the show.

184
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 1: And here is the I don't think I need an

185
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: excuse to put somebody on the program. But here is

186
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:31,959
Speaker 1: the logic that kind of hit me from a common

187
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 1: sense standpoint, maybe I should get him on. So, you know,

188
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: normally the car wash for me in terms of appearances

189
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: on radio shows here on the station, I'm on with

190
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,319
Speaker 1: jamb every Tuesday at three point thirty, and then normally

191
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: I'm on with the Morning show guys every Friday morning

192
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 1: at eight am. And then normally it's Friday night and

193
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 1: most of the time Saturday night that I'm on with

194
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 1: Bob Lovell on this station, WIBC, wherever the case may be. Well,

195
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 1: first of all, I was thankful enough that apparently the

196
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: bye week and assess that got me an invitation to

197
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 1: be on this year program yesterday as I was on

198
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 1: well like right about now, I was on my way

199
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: up to Cleveland a day ago. But the last two

200
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: days for all of the various things that I do,

201
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: and my email signature is a long one because I

202
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 1: put a bunch of that stuff on there. It wasn't

203
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 1: a Colts question, wasn't a high school football question, wasn't

204
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: an Indie eleven question. It was so you were in

205
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 1: a game where the winning team scored one hundred and

206
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: twenty one points. That's right, that's called the system. Yeah,

207
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,319
Speaker 1: they play the Grenelle style, play the Lolo Marra mount style.

208
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: And then I dropped the knowledge of they attempted forty

209
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 1: five threes in the game. It is a forty minute game,

210
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 1: so at least one per minute. I said, they outscored

211
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 1: their opponent. Now, albeit a non Division one school. God

212
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,439
Speaker 1: bless I you Columbus the Crimson Pride in their second

213
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: year of intercollegiate athletic or second year of men's basketball.

214
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 1: They've been playing intercollegiate sports for another year or two

215
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 1: before that, but their second year of having a men's

216
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: basketball team, that I you Indy force thirty six turnovers

217
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: and they outscored their opponents fifty one to ten on

218
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: points off turnovers. So clearly there is a fascination with

219
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 1: how IU Indy is doing their business now as a

220
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: men's basketball program, and their head coach Ben Howllett, in fact,

221
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: will join us in the next segment of the show,

222
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,680
Speaker 1: and so you will get to learn about the system

223
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,200
Speaker 1: as much as he is willing to share coming up

224
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: in the next segment of the show. So those are

225
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,679
Speaker 1: the guests, and as I am want to say, when

226
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 1: I am filling in for Jake, for John, for guys

227
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:46,959
Speaker 1: in the morning show, et cetera. You know, when you

228
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 1: do this as a substitute teacher, it's simply easier to

229
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,719
Speaker 1: have conversations with people because that's kind of what you're

230
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: more accustomed to. So, yes, we are going guest heavy.

231
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 1: We have five guests on the show today. But part

232
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 1: of that is, even when the Colts have a buy

233
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: it is November, there is so much going on to

234
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: talk about. Like we were hoping to have Bobby Buckets

235
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 1: on the show today, Bobby Riddell, of course, he and

236
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 1: Rob Blackman part of the Purdue Radio Network. Unfortunately, time

237
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 1: just kind of didn't work out. We're hoping maybe we

238
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:26,079
Speaker 1: have him on the show tomorrow after hopefully a Purdue

239
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: win tonight. Because as Matt Painter often does, Yeah, there's

240
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 1: a couple of buy games or guarantee games to get

241
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: you loose, Oakland being one of them, Evansville being the

242
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 1: other one from last week. But it does not take

243
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 1: long for most major college basketball programs, but especially one

244
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,719
Speaker 1: coach by Matt Painter, to get right to the heart

245
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 1: of the matter. They're playing number eight Alabama tonight, and

246
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: when you have a team that is as experienced, where

247
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: you know what you have and where the expectations are

248
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,560
Speaker 1: so high. I know Oakland played them to a tough game.

249
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 1: Evans not so much. And I know Greg Camp you

250
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,200
Speaker 1: have known them for over thirty years, the head coach

251
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 1: at Oakland, and I see them on a regular basis,

252
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,599
Speaker 1: And obviously I do business with the Horizon League. You

253
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 1: don't need to play that many Oaklands, so to speak.

254
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 1: If you're Purdue, you need to play as many Alabamas

255
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 1: as possible because that tells you exactly what you have.

256
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,440
Speaker 1: And so the fact that that was kind of like,

257
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: oh yeah, that's going on, and there's even an oh yeah,

258
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 1: like you played last night and beat Milwaukee again, another

259
00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 1: Horizon League opponent. Milwaukee thought to be one of the

260
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 1: better teams in our league, and I you beat them

261
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 1: by a score of one oh one to seventy last night.

262
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 1: We can't talk about the Hoosiers too, because clearly they

263
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 1: have looked the part. And while maybe you don't get

264
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 1: all hot and bothered about beating the Milwaukee Panthers, maybe

265
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 1: you feel that way about beating the other college team

266
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: from Milwaukee, that being Marquette. In a game you played

267
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: on Sunday. In fact, I had friends that were in

268
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 1: here with me in joining the Colts Studio experience on

269
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 1: Sunday afternoon, and I'm talking with Rick Venturrey, who was

270
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 1: over the phone, and I see my two buddies looking

271
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: at their phone and I kind of glanced there. I'm like, oh,

272
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 1: that's right, Indiana's playing this afternoon. So we get to

273
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,240
Speaker 1: the next break and I kind of saunter over there

274
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: as a If you don't know the exact layout of

275
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: the drive Hubler dot Com Studios, allow me to give

276
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: you kind of the play by play. Eddie's got more

277
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: monitors than Norad in front of him because he's got

278
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 1: old school television what we call wide orbit whatever he's

279
00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 1: looking at on the internet. Another monitor. He's literally, as

280
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 1: I'm looking him, he's got seven monitors around him. Like

281
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 1: small nations have less defense security than Eddie has around him.

282
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 1: Right now, there are three microphone seats, as you can

283
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 1: probably deduce if you look on the stream. Hello to

284
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: all of you watching us, trying to hide my made

285
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 1: for radio face as best as possible behind the drive

286
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: Hubler dot Com Mike Flag as we speak you until

287
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 1: there are three chairs aause, you know, we have like

288
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 1: up to three hosts that do the morning show at

289
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 1: a given time, but I kind of walk over the

290
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 1: other side of the monitor, the other side of the

291
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 1: studio and turn on the monitors so they can watch

292
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 1: Indiana and Marquette. In other words, there are certain things

293
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 1: once you get to what we all kind of call

294
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: the crossover time a year, that you're almost like, oh yeah,

295
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 1: I forgot about that. So yes, we will end up

296
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 1: talking less Indianapolis Colts today than we normally would because

297
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 1: they are getting their NFL mandated and clearly, given their

298
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 1: record in what they have done, a well deserved buy.

299
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 1: Will we take a complete buy from talking about the Colts. No,

300
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 1: but today and tomorrow is our chance to go oh yeah.

301
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: Indiana football is one of the best stories in the country,

302
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 1: not just in college football but in all of sports.

303
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:06,160
Speaker 1: The team that had the most losses in major college

304
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:10,439
Speaker 1: football history is now one of the best teams in

305
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: the nation for a second year in a row. Will

306
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 1: dedicate more time to that. The Indiana University basketball team,

307
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:24,200
Speaker 1: which apparently was unaware that modern basketball revolves around three

308
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 1: point shooting. They seemingly have a guy that has figured

309
00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,439
Speaker 1: that out now and his son can really play, And

310
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:35,760
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Indiana is now from a basketball standpoint,

311
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 1: which is crazy that I have to delineate which team

312
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 1: I'm talking about, right because normal and you say Indiana

313
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 1: as in university. You see, I'm talking about basketball. Will

314
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 1: now I have to go no, no, no football team, No no,

315
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 1: no basketball team over here. Again, good problem to have

316
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 1: for down in Betown. But the football team is kicking

317
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 1: ass and taking names. Basketball team, small sample size, looks good,

318
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:04,400
Speaker 1: looks entertaining, actually a brand of basketball that you want

319
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,120
Speaker 1: to watch, So it gives us more of a chance

320
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:10,679
Speaker 1: to talk about that, you know. And again here's Purdue,

321
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 1: who houl homemiks think they're gonna be in the final

322
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: four because Braden Smith's one of the all timers and

323
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:17,879
Speaker 1: Trey coppin Ren's really darn good and Fletch your lawyer's

324
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,360
Speaker 1: really darned good, and they've kind of rearranged the pieces

325
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: around those guys this year. They got a big game tonight.

326
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, let's talk a little bit more about that.

327
00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 1: Butler's back on these airwaves. We'll talk more about that tomorrow.

328
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 1: Although a lot of fuego for them early in the

329
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,640
Speaker 1: year A guy who sweater vest said is always fuego.

330
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,879
Speaker 1: Mark Minner will be joining us on the program tomorrow,

331
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 1: So a bit of a breather for the colts, but

332
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:50,200
Speaker 1: by no means a breather for us in the radio station,

333
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:54,640
Speaker 1: or frankly for us in terms of things that we

334
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:58,879
Speaker 1: have to talk about. But for the last few minutes

335
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 1: of this monologue that I get to have to open

336
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 1: the show before we get to our so many great guests,

337
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:08,399
Speaker 1: and simply we'll respond via tweets at Greg reakesdraw we

338
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,679
Speaker 1: can do the email thing too, Greg at ten seventythefan

339
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 1: dot com, you know the bat phone, text it, we'll

340
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 1: have a conversation. You can now call the show or

341
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 1: text the show three one seven two, three nine, ten seventy.

342
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,680
Speaker 1: I do not have the ability. I mean I can.

343
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 1: I can read text on my phone, but I'm kind

344
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 1: of adjunct faculty around here. I don't have the chance

345
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 1: to I don't get the text line thread like directly

346
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:37,199
Speaker 1: to me. I make Eddie read it to me. So

347
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,640
Speaker 1: in other words, if you text the show, my people

348
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,640
Speaker 1: will then relay that to me. So I can talk

349
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 1: about that on the program. But in the last three

350
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:48,639
Speaker 1: or four minutes before we get to our first batch

351
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 1: of finally crafted commercial messages. I just saw this tweet

352
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,120
Speaker 1: from Mike Chapel. Thought it was a good perspective as

353
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 1: to why the cultures sitting where they are at eight

354
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,959
Speaker 1: and two and again Mike credits Matt Taylor, who will

355
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 1: be able at one o'clock with these stats. Jonathan Taylor,

356
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 1: not the Colts. Jonathan Taylor has more rushing yards currently

357
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:18,360
Speaker 1: than eleven teams. Jonathan Taylor fifteen rushing touchdowns, more than

358
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 1: every team but the Buffalo Bills. So right now, Jonathan

359
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:30,679
Speaker 1: Taylor is the second leading rushing touchdown producing team in

360
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 1: the National Football League, and his seventeen total touchdowns are

361
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 1: more than four teams have scored so far this year. Eddie,

362
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 1: is is it trivia time to figure out whom Jonathan

363
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 1: Taylor has outscored in the National Football League in terms

364
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 1: of touchdowns? In terms of touchdowns? Can you can you

365
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:50,359
Speaker 1: bring that list up before the end of this segment

366
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 1: or do we save that for twelve forty five? I

367
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: can probably figure it out, all right, So see, let

368
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,359
Speaker 1: me know when you have got the list of you know,

369
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: list of touchdowns score per team in the National Football

370
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 1: League this season. I want to see if I can

371
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:08,439
Speaker 1: take a flyer as to the teams that Jonathan Taylor

372
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:13,879
Speaker 1: by his lonesome has outscored so far this year. We

373
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:15,920
Speaker 1: will not have just dead air while Eddie waits and

374
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 1: searches that I will keep talking. Sorry, I don't do

375
00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 1: this every day anymore. As in like a minute to

376
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,119
Speaker 1: kind of mentally reset. I'm going to fire the synapses.

377
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:25,680
Speaker 1: And now that you've seen a fat man or heard

378
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 1: a fat man tap dance long enough, will you figured

379
00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 1: it out? I Am going to take a flyer that

380
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 1: JT has more touchdowns than do the New Orleans Saints.

381
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 1: Is that a f actual statement?

382
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 2: That is a factual statement?

383
00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:38,680
Speaker 1: Do we have a bell for this sort of thing?

384
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,960
Speaker 1: Can you pull that up from the archives? Even though

385
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 1: I'm not even wearing headsets, I'm going to just take

386
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:43,880
Speaker 1: your word for it that you just rang the bell

387
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 1: for me. Okay, apparently we're on JMB level headsets. I

388
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 1: don't have to put them on. I can still hear.

389
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 1: So there's one I'm gonna go with the New York

390
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 1: Football Jets that JT has more touchdowns than the Jets do.

391
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 2: Seriously, they have nineteen?

392
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,959
Speaker 1: Really yes, because there've been garbage offensively. Oh yeah, okay,

393
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with JT has more touchdowns total than

394
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 1: do the Cleveland Browns. It's two of them. Okay, we

395
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 1: won't do this for the entire segment. Let me see

396
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,520
Speaker 1: if I this is like take the Rake solo version.

397
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 2: I like this. He want to hitle. I can give

398
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:16,680
Speaker 2: you a hint.

399
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 1: He also would have outscored a team in his division,

400
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans.

401
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:20,919
Speaker 2: That's correct.

402
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 1: Okay, so that's three and I'm have to go with four.

403
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say the other team would be the Las

404
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 1: Vegas Raiders.

405
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 2: Got them all?

406
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 3: Who knew that?

407
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 1: At the end of this segment, The actual takeaway from

408
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 1: it would be maybe the Jets aren't so bad. They're

409
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 1: only the fifth worst offense in the National Football League

410
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 1: because Jonathan Taylor has outscored four teams by his lonesome so.

411
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:50,160
Speaker 2: Far, Atlanta has eighteen. Sounds close. Yeah, if the.

412
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 1: Forest Butner played, the answer will be five because we're

413
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:54,159
Speaker 1: ben't be able to move the football the way in

414
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,879
Speaker 1: which they did last week. All Right. The other the

415
00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,479
Speaker 1: other thing that we will not talk about today, at

416
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,439
Speaker 1: least I'm not planning from a guest standpoint. Frankly, if

417
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 1: you want to talk about it at Greg reiksdraw up

418
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 1: on Twitter slash x three one seven two three nine

419
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 1: ten seventy as the phone number old school email. I

420
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 1: think it still works, Greg at ten seventy THEEFAN dot com.

421
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 1: You notice in that wild, meandering first twenty three minutes

422
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 1: of the program, the one anity I didn't talk about

423
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 1: was the Indiana Pacers. And that is not to shun

424
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 1: the Pacers for their poor start, but that is because

425
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 1: the issues are so easy to explain. You take away

426
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 1: Tyrese Haliburton, you have Miles Turner doing what he did,

427
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:40,760
Speaker 1: and then you lose Andrew Nemhard for three or four weeks.

428
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 1: You lose TJ McConnell for a month. I realized that

429
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,200
Speaker 1: both of those guys are back. Now you lose Bennetting

430
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:51,640
Speaker 1: Matherin after a handful of games. Obi Topping is going

431
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: to miss most of the season. Numerous other players get hurt.

432
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 1: I mean it's the discussion slash debate about the Indiana

433
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:04,119
Speaker 1: pace takes about like four seconds. They don't have any dudes,

434
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: And I was chiding Kevin Bow and Kevin will be

435
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 1: not that he needs to defend himself from me in

436
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 1: any way, shape or profession. I'm jealous of his hair

437
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 1: and its golf game and his free Master's shirt that

438
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 1: he got. Maybe I'm jealous of Kevin Bow want to

439
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,200
Speaker 1: actually come to think about it, but he was talking

440
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 1: about this in the morning show today. I'm going to

441
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 1: blame the sleep deprivation with having a newborn as the

442
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 1: reason why. And that would be the fact that, you know,

443
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:30,560
Speaker 1: the Pacers maybe should be playing better than they are,

444
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 1: and maybe they should be, but if you take away

445
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: like four or five key pieces from last year's NBA

446
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,439
Speaker 1: Finals team, not many teams are gonna be good, and

447
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:43,679
Speaker 1: so not as much Pacers conversation right now, not because

448
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 1: I want to ignore them or shun them, because I

449
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:50,159
Speaker 1: feel bad for them and to me, you kind of

450
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 1: give him a pass or great on the curve. They

451
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,439
Speaker 1: do play the night against the Phoenix Suns Fingers crossed

452
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 1: for the best pregame cover starts at eight thirty or

453
00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,879
Speaker 1: nine this evening. Mister Garrison, you will be the person

454
00:24:59,880 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 1: that that would know as the gentleman on the ones

455
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:07,040
Speaker 1: and twos. The DJ Jazzy Jeff of the Elevance Health

456
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 1: Radio Network see even this substitute teacher gets the other

457
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,880
Speaker 1: radio network right, because normally I say the Ascension Saint

458
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 1: Vincent Radio Network. And just like on Sundays when I

459
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:19,639
Speaker 1: say that it's time to go to a break on

460
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: ninety three to five and one oh seven to five

461
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 1: of the fan. Now, this is a song that has

462
00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 1: great resonance and meeting with me, but unfortunately as being

463
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 1: phased out because that was the IU Puy fight song

464
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 1: and it's the second year of it no longer being

465
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 1: IU Pui. That would be IU Indianapolis and a guy

466
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,400
Speaker 1: that is in his first season as the men's basketball

467
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 1: coach at IU Indy. And again that is a story

468
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,639
Speaker 1: worth telling, but it is the style of play and

469
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 1: the commitment to it that has drawn a lot of

470
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 1: attention for a program that is one in three. He

471
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,120
Speaker 1: is literally on a bus on his way to ipsil Any,

472
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,200
Speaker 1: Michigan as the IU Indy Jaguar Ours take on Eastern

473
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 1: Michigan tomorrow night at six thirty. He is the head

474
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 1: coach of the IU Indy Jaguars and Ben Hallock, good afternoon,

475
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:07,640
Speaker 1: my friend. How are you.

476
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:09,399
Speaker 3: I'm doing fine.

477
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 4: We're just like you said on our lay to Eastern

478
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:14,160
Speaker 4: Michigan and excited to talk to you guys.

479
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 1: Here there are there are a lot of folks that

480
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 1: see one hundred and twenty one points. And I dropped

481
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 1: the two stats that jumped off the page to me.

482
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:25,719
Speaker 1: Forty five to three pointers attempted, thirty six turnovers forced

483
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 1: fifty one ten was your advantage in terms of points

484
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 1: off of turnovers? Again, those are staggering numbers to some.

485
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,200
Speaker 1: My guess is that kind of feels like an average

486
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 1: day to you? Is that a correct statement?

487
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 4: Yeah? I think it was actually a below average day, right,

488
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,040
Speaker 4: I did it. I wasnt real thrilled with the way

489
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,439
Speaker 4: we played in the first half and just sloppy at

490
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 4: times and unforced turnovers in our end, and then really

491
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 4: challenged them at halftime to you know, taking up another

492
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,440
Speaker 4: notch and play a little bit harder, looking more intensity,

493
00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 4: and we went, you know, a platoon every minute, five

494
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 4: and five on every minute. And I think it pays

495
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 4: evidence for here in the second half.

496
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,680
Speaker 1: Forty eight points and half number one, seventy three points

497
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:11,119
Speaker 1: and half number two. So clearly the halftime speech, you know,

498
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: got guys in a little bit of gear. I kind

499
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 1: of want to take this bigger picture. You played at

500
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 1: West Liberty and this is the style that you played

501
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 1: at West Liberty?

502
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 2: Correct?

503
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 5: It is?

504
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, it is. And what I say is when I played,

505
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 4: we actually we still pressed and guarded ninety four feet,

506
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 4: but we actually dropped back into a zone in the

507
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,879
Speaker 4: half court setting. So it's kind of evolved through the

508
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 4: years and now we're pretty much full fort president one

509
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,680
Speaker 4: hundred percent of the time and half court man the

510
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 4: man ninety nine percent of the time.

511
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,719
Speaker 1: And again it's Jim is a crutch Felder crutch Field.

512
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:47,119
Speaker 1: That was the guy that crutch Field you played for.

513
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: Now is it Nova Southeastern again? Another great Division two program?

514
00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 1: As a player? What was it like to adjust? I mean,

515
00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:58,720
Speaker 1: was that the style they played when you were recruited?

516
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,760
Speaker 1: Of that change when you got there as a player,

517
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 1: but you're not that far moved from you're playing days.

518
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 1: What was it like having that sort of freedom and

519
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 1: playing at that sort of pace?

520
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:09,159
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was, it was.

521
00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 4: It was great, and you know, that's that's what they

522
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 4: recruited me to. And essentially they were letting us make

523
00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 4: decisions on the floor, but from an offensive standpoint and

524
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 4: a defensive standpoint. And you know, obviously you score a

525
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 4: lot of points and there's a lot of possessions, So

526
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 4: that's that's attractive for recruit. But every recruit says they

527
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:29,959
Speaker 4: want to do it until it's time to do it.

528
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,439
Speaker 4: It's really hard and it's exhausting, and you know, you

529
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,920
Speaker 4: don't realize that when you're being recruited until you actually

530
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 4: step into it and actually do it. So you know,

531
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 4: it is an attractive style play and you know a

532
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 4: lot of people think it's a gimmick and help with

533
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 4: gimmicks for the amount of wins that we've won, you

534
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 4: know West Liberty and what we're going to do here

535
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 4: at IU Indy. It's but it takes time and there's

536
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 4: some ground chains and we're going through some of those

537
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 4: right now. But we're going to get this thing done

538
00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 4: and we're going to flip this children.

539
00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,040
Speaker 1: So again for just for those that know again and

540
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,280
Speaker 1: played at West Liberty, there was an assistant coach at

541
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: West Liberty. In his eight years as the head coach

542
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 1: at West Liberty, which is in West Virginia Division two.

543
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 1: Ben's record as the head coach there was two, seventeen

544
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 1: and thirty seven. Your goal of the Division two level

545
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 1: is to win a national championship, but kind of the

546
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 1: marker of success as being in the Elite eight, which

547
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,280
Speaker 1: is something West Liberty has been to on a multitude

548
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 1: of times. I had the pleasure of broadcasting one West

549
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 1: Liberty game. It was when Ben was an assistant coach

550
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 1: at the time. So do you remember back to twenty thirteen,

551
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:36,959
Speaker 1: you're playing the Elite eate at Freedom Hall. I remember

552
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 1: being there and I want to say, you scored somewhere

553
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: the same one hundred and twenty points I think that day,

554
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 1: which is what obviously what you scored on Tuesday. The

555
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 1: conditioning that these guys have to have to play that style,

556
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 1: how do you build that up in the offseason to

557
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 1: make them game ready to do this thirty plus times

558
00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 1: a year.

559
00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's kind of one thinks they know, But we

560
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 4: don't really condition. What we do is we play every

561
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 4: day to art and if you do it the right way,

562
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:12,360
Speaker 4: and you you tress and you know, you run out

563
00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:16,520
Speaker 4: of trapped and you sprint rather than just run, you're

564
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 4: gonna be in a way better states it and going

565
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 4: out and running suicides every day. I can run a

566
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 4: suicide right now. I can't play two possessions in our

567
00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 4: in our system. It's exhaustion. And so with that being said,

568
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 4: you know we'll keep attracted winning and losing.

569
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 6: Two.

570
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 4: Everything these guys do is monitored, and you know, we

571
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 4: keep track of the wins and losses and we toast

572
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 4: that in the locker room. So we keep track of that.

573
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 4: And at the end of the fall, we say, you know,

574
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 4: either you're a winner or you're a loser most times,

575
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 4: and we're going to play the guys that win those games.

576
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,440
Speaker 4: There's meaningless games actually mean something to the Churching staff.

577
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 1: So getting Ben Hall at our guest, he's the new

578
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 1: men's basketball coach at I you Indya again, they're on

579
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 1: the road to play at Eastern Michigan. The system is

580
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 1: what it is called. And when and when I describe

581
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,120
Speaker 1: this is maybe goes the direction of basketball nerd. I

582
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 1: think for that this show, it's okay. When i'd heard it,

583
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 1: describe to people that the two examples I cite or

584
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 1: Paul West, Ted Loyola Marre, amount of of bo Kimball,

585
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 1: Hank Gathers, and the other would be Grennell from the

586
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 1: Division three ranks. How is what you do different, whether

587
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 1: it's a lot or a little than those two examples.

588
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 1: I just gave Yeah.

589
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:22,840
Speaker 4: I think it's it's not not similar to Drannelle And

590
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,320
Speaker 4: that's that's a fair mistake because Grannell the system there

591
00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,719
Speaker 4: is if you don't create a turner or you give

592
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 4: up a we're not trying to give up lafts the

593
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 4: last thing. We're trying to hear it. Sometimes it looks

594
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 4: like that right now we're giving them up like we

595
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 4: just got to improve in the half court. And I

596
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 4: think it's it's its own identity. I don't think you know,

597
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 4: it's like either one of those. I just I think

598
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 4: what more doors are being ultra aggressive defensively in the

599
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 4: back court and picking up ninety four feet and then

600
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 4: from an offensive standpoint, we're just we're not going to

601
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:55,160
Speaker 4: pigeonhole guys in the positions, and you know we don't

602
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 4: have a true center or true point guard. We're just

603
00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,120
Speaker 4: allowing these guys to make decisions and be back up

604
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 4: players rather than robots.

605
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 1: Again, Ben Hall at our guest Greg reichs Ren for

606
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 1: j Query ninety three to five and one seven five

607
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 1: the Fan, Any concerns about this translating to a Division

608
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 1: one level. I think I know what your answer is

609
00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 1: going to be. But making a jump from D two

610
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 1: to D one, any sort of pause in thinking, I'm

611
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 1: not sure this works against this level of competition.

612
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:25,440
Speaker 4: Now it's going to work, and it's only a matter

613
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 4: of time. And that's kind of where we're at right

614
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 4: now as a team is. You know, we've we've played

615
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,640
Speaker 4: a tough schedule so far. We've played Ohio State, l

616
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 4: i U has projected the winner's Conference and Butler and

617
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 4: had some good moments in those games. And we're going

618
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,960
Speaker 4: to continue to get better. The one main attribute to

619
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 4: this system is you improved throughout the year and we've

620
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 4: got a lot of new guys that are playing this

621
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 4: for the first time and we're starting two true freshmen.

622
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 4: Like it's going to take time, but eventually it's going

623
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 4: to work, and we just want to put ourselves in

624
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 4: a position in marsh where we feel like we can

625
00:32:57,320 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 4: win the conference tournament. When we'll get.

626
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 1: There a couple quick days. We'll let you go caause

627
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,960
Speaker 1: again you get a bus ride to kind of complete

628
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 1: and the way you play it can be anybody. On

629
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 1: a given night, you played kind of eleven when the

630
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 1: game was still competitive, all fifteen guys had a chance

631
00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:13,720
Speaker 1: to play because you won by forty four poor or

632
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 1: forty two points on Tuesday afternoon. But the guy that

633
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 1: again is fascinating me because he's your point guard as

634
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,200
Speaker 1: really as kind of a back to the basket player,

635
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 1: and he's from a place where you don't think about

636
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 1: finding college basketball players. Maybe about Filly Woodward being from Bristol,

637
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 1: England and being a guy that had twenty assists in

638
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 1: the first three games of your season.

639
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, that doesn't surprise me. That's he can. He can

640
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 4: dominate a game without scoring a point and kind of

641
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:42,480
Speaker 4: an unique situation where he was at a trep.

642
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 6: School in Ohio.

643
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 4: No one was really recruiting him, even at the Division

644
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,479
Speaker 4: two level, and we just saw a guy that can

645
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,800
Speaker 4: do a little bit of everything and very skilled and

646
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:56,720
Speaker 4: easy to play with and a guy that really likes

647
00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 4: to win. And it was a no brainer for us,

648
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 4: you know, it was Liberty. And then when I was

649
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 4: fortunate enough and lucky enough to get the jobs here,

650
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 4: it was a no printer to bring him along with

651
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 4: us here. So he's bridged the gap and he's helped

652
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 4: these other guys kind of understand what we're doing in

653
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 4: terms of style play and the intensity level it takes

654
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:14,719
Speaker 4: to play in this system, and we're going to lean

655
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:16,400
Speaker 4: lean on hand throughout the rest of the season.

656
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 1: A couple of quick things, and then we'll let you go.

657
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:20,879
Speaker 1: And frankly, you don't care where the guy is from.

658
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 1: If he can play your system, he can play. If

659
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,440
Speaker 1: he helps you win, again, you don't care. But you

660
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:29,719
Speaker 1: do have a basketball you know, tradition, rich area, a

661
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 1: fird recruiting ground you can now pull kids from. What

662
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,719
Speaker 1: sort of the response you're getting from recruits in this area,

663
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 1: from high school coaches, et cetera about the system and

664
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 1: what you can do with it here in the city

665
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 1: of Indianapolis.

666
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, we've gotten just this great, great coverage from from

667
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 4: from all the local media, and then we're getting a

668
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,719
Speaker 4: lot of interest from the local high school coaches. And

669
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 4: I hired three guys from from the state of Indiana

670
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 4: who's helped me learn learn of the lay of the

671
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,799
Speaker 4: land and help me learn these coaches and understand who

672
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 4: they are. And their response has been great and not

673
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 4: to be a higher state game. We did lose, but

674
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 4: we did put up one hundred and two points against

675
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 4: them against a powerful team, and I've never been more

676
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 4: popular in my life. My email was putting with with

677
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 4: emails and all positive things. So it's good. But you know,

678
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,319
Speaker 4: for me, we're sitting at one and three right now

679
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:29,440
Speaker 4: and none of that stuff matters because we want to

680
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 4: one games.

681
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 5: We want this.

682
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 4: Stuff to translate into winning, and that's our job as

683
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 4: coaches to get it there.

684
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:36,920
Speaker 1: Final thing before we let you go, and you and

685
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,400
Speaker 1: I had a version of this conversation on Tuesday afternoon

686
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 1: on the game on May and DTV and ESPN plus

687
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,680
Speaker 1: uh five and sixty eight fans with the game on Tuesday.

688
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 1: Almost all of them are the age of eleven. They

689
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:50,560
Speaker 1: were kids that read enough during the course of the

690
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,759
Speaker 1: season to earn a field trip to not be in

691
00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 1: school for three hours and come watch a basketball game.

692
00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 1: I had headphones I could put on. Are your ears

693
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 1: still ringing from two days ago?

694
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 5: Yeah?

695
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:03,560
Speaker 4: A lot of a lot oft game I've ever been

696
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 4: a part of it, I could not. I've got a

697
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 4: pretty good voice, but you know, during a time out,

698
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,879
Speaker 4: it was it was tough for our guys to hear

699
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 4: what I was saying, but I just you know, it

700
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 4: was a great pause. And what a cool field trip

701
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 4: those kids got got to take part on it, and

702
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,279
Speaker 4: coming to a college basketball game, and you know, I

703
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:23,920
Speaker 4: know our guys certainly appreciated playing there and the atmosphere,

704
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 4: and it's something that I hope we continue to do

705
00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 4: with a you Indy.

706
00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 1: Listen, there's a fifty five year old guy that does

707
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:31,960
Speaker 1: afternoon drive that asked me about having eligibility. So if

708
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:33,399
Speaker 1: you get a text or an email from a guy

709
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 1: named JMV. He's not going to run back and play defense.

710
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,799
Speaker 1: He has no problem firing a three point shot within

711
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 1: eight seconds of a possession. So just a heads up

712
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 1: you might be getting that phone call.

713
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 4: Okay, I've had a couple of those guys in my career,

714
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:47,319
Speaker 4: so I know all about them.

715
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,040

Speaker 1: the new man's basketball coach at IU Indy. And again

744
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,680
Speaker 1: the style of play in which they are going to

745
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 1: be a part of clearly is what gets the attention.

746
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,560
Speaker 2: What's it like for you as a broadcast.

747
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 1: You know, as the television guy, it is not as

748
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 1: big of a change as it is for the radio guy.

749
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:31,800
Speaker 2: That's true.

750
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:35,600
Speaker 1: The radio guy, you are sounding like an auctioneer. You know,

751
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 1: you're you're almost having to skip certain passes, which you

752
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 1: can do if you're doing radio. Theater of the mine

753
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:43,320
Speaker 1: and I don't think I'm talking of school here. It

754
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:44,520
Speaker 1: is a guy that used to be a part of

755
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:46,399
Speaker 1: this program, in Jimmy Cook, that is doing the play

756
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 1: by play for IU Indy this year on any different frequency.

757
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 1: Congratulations Jimmy on the job. I know you'll do a

758
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 1: tremendous job. But he's on the trip probably right now,

759
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 1: if not, he's heading up to Eastern Michigan tomorrow for

760
00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 1: that game in ipsil Ani. But you are flying doing

761
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:06,240
Speaker 1: the play by play of that on radio. On television,

762
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 1: you know, you're basically telling shorter stories. You know, you're

763
00:39:11,120 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 1: not elaborating as much because you feel compelled to go,

764
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,360
Speaker 1: Hey Johnson scored the basket, Hey Jones scored the basket.

765
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 1: Hey there's a steal, there's a turnover. But again, the

766
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:26,799
Speaker 1: best way I described it, I knew this would get

767
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 1: John's attention when we talked on Tuesday, and you heard

768
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 1: what Ben had to say in terms of he didn't

769
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 1: like his team's effort in the first half, and they

770
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 1: scored forty eight points, so effort in the second half

771
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:43,920
Speaker 1: became seventy three points. Now, again, let's put a caveat

772
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:46,399
Speaker 1: by it. All right, you're playing a non Division one

773
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 1: team who is in their second year of fielding an

774
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:54,279
Speaker 1: intercollegiate basketball program in terms of buy you Columbus. But

775
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:59,080
Speaker 1: I do think there are things that translate over in

776
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:03,840
Speaker 1: terms of the cumulative effect. You know, consider it like being,

777
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:07,000
Speaker 1: you know, taking body blows as a fighter. You know

778
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 1: what you can deal with in rounds one through six,

779
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:14,360
Speaker 1: suddenly feel and look differently in round seven through twelve.

780
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 1: You know, IU Indy outscored him by thirty four points

781
00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:22,919
Speaker 1: in the second half. It's kind of an indication as

782
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 1: to you know, those guys are in shape to do that.

783
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,279
Speaker 1: And it's funny because because again Ben and I have

784
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:33,280
Speaker 1: had about three variations of the conversation you just heard.

785
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,320
Speaker 1: There was one that he had when he first got hired.

786
00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:37,880
Speaker 1: I think I was filling in for I think it

787
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:42,440
Speaker 1: was The first Friday of bob summer hiatus was that weekend,

788
00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 1: and so I had him on the show and we

789
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:47,239
Speaker 1: talked about several things we talked about back then. I

790
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 1: have done a video version of that conversation, maybe a

791
00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:55,239
Speaker 1: little more freeze dried. That one was for the every

792
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:57,960
Speaker 1: other week IU Indye Coaches Show, which by the way,

793
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:00,880
Speaker 1: next Wednesday at noon. Sorry that I'm competing with you

794
00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:04,000
Speaker 1: guys for thirty minutes next Wednesday on the fan, but

795
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:09,279
Speaker 1: we do that from on campus. But the answer that

796
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:14,040
Speaker 1: he that he rolled out there was we played to

797
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:20,080
Speaker 1: one hundred every day. Now, it's funny, Eddie at you

798
00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:25,960
Speaker 1: and I shared alma mater one of the for a

799
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,040
Speaker 1: previous coach that I did not have to work for.

800
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,000
Speaker 1: It's not gonna be too thinly veiled. Anybody that has

801
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 1: a knowledge of you, of IU Indie Indiana Central Basketball

802
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:36,759
Speaker 1: will know who I'm talking about. But a legendary high

803
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,440
Speaker 1: school coach who was coaching at you Indy as kind

804
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:43,080
Speaker 1: of his last coaching job. He too would hold practice

805
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:45,320
Speaker 1: based to say U five U five play to one hundred.

806
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 1: Difference is he would then kind of go to the

807
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:47,720
Speaker 1: golf course.

808
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:49,400
Speaker 7: You know.

809
00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 1: That was dut as more casual as compared to Ben

810
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:57,960
Speaker 1: saying for my guys to play anywhere between fifteen and

811
00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:02,800
Speaker 1: twenty five minutes a game, we don't do and I'm

812
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:08,759
Speaker 1: inserting this not him air quotes useless conditioning. We go

813
00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:12,359
Speaker 1: play to one hundred, but we keep track. And I

814
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 1: can tell you this, like they keep track of plus

815
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:20,439
Speaker 1: minus during practice. And you hear this from a lot

816
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:24,920
Speaker 1: of coaches in any sport these days. It's not and

817
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:28,520
Speaker 1: maybe it's because of the different way young people's brains

818
00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:32,160
Speaker 1: are wired than they were twenty thirty, forty fifty years ago.

819
00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:34,800
Speaker 1: But almost any coach any sport will tell you the

820
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:38,319
Speaker 1: key to having a great practice is to make it competitive.

821
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,720
Speaker 1: In other words, do drills where there is a define

822
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:45,879
Speaker 1: winner and a define loser instead of just hey, let's

823
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:49,200
Speaker 1: go run this play for a thirteenth consecutive time. There's

824
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,200
Speaker 1: a twoe out factor there. But if you make the

825
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:57,240
Speaker 1: drill competitive and there is a prize or maybe runners

826
00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:59,840
Speaker 1: are going to go lose, all of a sudden, things

827
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:02,279
Speaker 1: canick in. But that is something that Ben doesn't do

828
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:05,400
Speaker 1: in his practices. They are keeping track of who is

829
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 1: winning drills. They're keeping track of who is winning games,

830
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 1: and I've I've heard that conversation about a particular player

831
00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 1: and this guy's great never wins, and again there is

832
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 1: something to that. But of the things that we talked

833
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:21,120
Speaker 1: about in the last time, and that's what stuck with me,

834
00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 1: is that we played to one hundred every day. I mean,

835
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 1: your goal is to get to actually, frankly, their goals

836
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:27,959
Speaker 1: get to like one hundred and ten or one hundred

837
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,640
Speaker 1: and twenty, like one hundred and twenty one. And I

838
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:34,720
Speaker 1: put this on either the Facebook or the Twitter post.

839
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 1: I had basis saying, Hi, look at me. I'm at

840
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:40,080
Speaker 1: the Colisseum at nine forty five. Please watch my game

841
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:44,000
Speaker 1: at eleven am on my NDTV and ESPN Plus. Because

842
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:47,400
Speaker 1: that's what all of us broadcasters are doing. Okay, every

843
00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:49,759
Speaker 1: time you see a social media post look at my

844
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:53,440
Speaker 1: office today, Hey, look at where I get to be today.

845
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 1: What that really means is I'm going to be on

846
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,040
Speaker 1: this medium. I would like for you to tune in

847
00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:01,960
Speaker 1: or watch. They're not paying me by the viewer, but

848
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:05,319
Speaker 1: it doesn't hurt if you would. It's really what we're doing.

849
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:09,719
Speaker 1: And I put on one of those the Jags might

850
00:44:09,719 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 1: score one hundred and fifty. That was not to be

851
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:17,000
Speaker 1: derogatory to IU Columbus. But if you go back and

852
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 1: check the math, what did I tell you that IU

853
00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:23,359
Speaker 1: Indi scored in the second half of that game? Seventy three?

854
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 1: Double that up one hundred and forty six. Now against

855
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:32,759
Speaker 1: Division one competition, that number is probably closer to like

856
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 1: one hundred and fifteen or one hundred and twenty in

857
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:36,920
Speaker 1: terms of really what I think they can get to.

858
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:39,600
Speaker 1: Will there be again you see in an NBA games

859
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:41,480
Speaker 1: good Lord the Jazz, but one hundred fifty two on

860
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:46,520
Speaker 1: the Pacers on Tuesday night, But in a forty minute

861
00:44:46,560 --> 00:44:49,480
Speaker 1: game of a Division IE level you don't see that.

862
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:52,799
Speaker 1: And Ben alluded to it as well. And this is

863
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:55,759
Speaker 1: not like moral victory talk here, but before the game

864
00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:58,520
Speaker 1: agains IU Columbus. The most points that IU Indi had

865
00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:01,319
Speaker 1: scored in a game this year was that Ohio State.

866
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:04,560
Speaker 1: You know that in Butler. They had their two games

867
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:07,680
Speaker 1: against Power five competition the first week of the season.

868
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,719
Speaker 1: The only other guarantee games we call it in the

869
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:13,719
Speaker 1: business where you take a paycheck and normally it's belt

870
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:17,279
Speaker 1: to backside would be at Grand Canyon on December the

871
00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:22,960
Speaker 1: twenty second. Those next few games for them Eastern Michigan, Charleston,

872
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:26,480
Speaker 1: Southern Alabama and m or Alabama State. I forget which

873
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:29,359
Speaker 1: one it is, air Force and Morehead State. And by

874
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:32,440
Speaker 1: the way, the Morehead State game is the next home game.

875
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,400
Speaker 1: So if you're in this conversation and going, man, I

876
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:40,720
Speaker 1: want to see that jungle on campus November twenty ninth,

877
00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:42,880
Speaker 1: I'll be the fat guy on the suit on the

878
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 1: side opposite the team benches. ESPN pluses where you can

879
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:49,480
Speaker 1: watch that one as well, from talking about the iund

880
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:52,960
Speaker 1: Jaguars to talking about a team that well wants to

881
00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,719
Speaker 1: pummel the Jaguars when they see them on December seventh.

882
00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:58,600
Speaker 1: December the twenty eighth, that being the Indianapolis Colts, they

883
00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:01,759
Speaker 1: have a bye, but Matt Taylor still has time for us.

884
00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:03,719
Speaker 1: He joins us next ninety three to five and one

885
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:07,080
Speaker 1: oh seven to five of the fan. Is this the

886
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:09,680
Speaker 1: part I'm supposed to talk? See you think I'd have

887
00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:15,480
Speaker 1: basic understanding? Big voice guy stops talking. I start talking

888
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 1: my apologies for doing something of the day job while

889
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:22,160
Speaker 1: trying to finish that out. Greg reig Straw substitute teachings.

890
00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:24,759
Speaker 1: This is what happens you have a substitute teacher does

891
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:28,319
Speaker 1: not run as smoothly of a ship as Jake Query does.

892
00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:32,120
Speaker 1: At some point in time, a little Falco, not Shane Falco,

893
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:35,000
Speaker 1: but Falco would play in honor of Jake's trip later

894
00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:37,719
Speaker 1: in the program. A man that might be old enough

895
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:40,160
Speaker 1: to get that reference. He tends to be an old soul,

896
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 1: and I hope that he's a kicking back relax in

897
00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 1: someplace somewhere. It is Matt Taylor that joins us now

898
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:49,480
Speaker 1: on the Java House Peel and poor guest line, Hello,

899
00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:50,400
Speaker 1: my friend, how are you?

900
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:53,680
Speaker 7: I'm great, Greg, good to be with you. Hope all

901
00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 7: as well.

902
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:54,600
Speaker 8: Uh.

903
00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:58,560
Speaker 1: I know that I've experienced jet lag, not so much

904
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:00,839
Speaker 1: coming back from Iceland, but coming back from like both

905
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:06,000
Speaker 1: Hawaii and Alaska. How is German jet lag treating you?

906
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:09,200
Speaker 7: You know what, It's not too bad, you know. I

907
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:12,840
Speaker 7: think the adjustment there is for me anyways, right, I

908
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:15,840
Speaker 7: think the adjustment there is way more severe than coming

909
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:20,799
Speaker 7: home because we got home at we landed on what

910
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:25,120
Speaker 7: was that Monday morning, at like twelve thirty after the game,

911
00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:27,520
Speaker 7: and so by the time I got home I was

912
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:30,960
Speaker 7: tired and it was time to sleep anyway, So you know,

913
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:33,960
Speaker 7: the adjustment coming back is not as bad because when

914
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:37,279
Speaker 7: you land, you know you've been up all night, in

915
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,719
Speaker 7: the middle of the night on the plane, and we

916
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:43,319
Speaker 7: landed at ten thirty in the morning German time, after

917
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:45,799
Speaker 7: flying all night, and I don't really sleep all that

918
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:48,719
Speaker 7: well on planes, so you know when it's time to

919
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:51,279
Speaker 7: be up all day German time, like you're exhausted, your

920
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:53,160
Speaker 7: body clock is ready to go to bed. So I

921
00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,640
Speaker 7: think that was to me the hardest part of the

922
00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,200
Speaker 7: six hour time difference is just kind of like powering

923
00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:03,080
Speaker 7: through Friday and then getting to a normal you know,

924
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:05,440
Speaker 7: body clock position, if you will, to be able to

925
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:07,879
Speaker 7: go to bed and get in sync with the German time.

926
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,600
Speaker 7: So going back not as bad, but getting there, you

927
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:14,120
Speaker 7: know that that Friday, that that was definitely a struggle

928
00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:16,919
Speaker 7: to stay awake and fight through that German time zone.

929
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:20,120
Speaker 1: Because of now having done this and now having traveled

930
00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:22,280
Speaker 1: for the better part of the last decade with the team,

931
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:25,440
Speaker 1: is this not something that frankly, you're used to because again,

932
00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:28,360
Speaker 1: nobody's complaining about our jobs between you and I what

933
00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:30,000
Speaker 1: we get to do for a living. But say, if

934
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,319
Speaker 1: you're coming back from a West coast trip, you know

935
00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:34,960
Speaker 1: if you're playing a night game, maybe you're getting back

936
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:37,640
Speaker 1: at four or five in the morning. The cycle doesn't stop.

937
00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:40,080
Speaker 1: You got to be in the office first thing next morning.

938
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:42,840
Speaker 1: So as your body has got account and used to

939
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:46,120
Speaker 1: tolerating that at this point, Yeah, I.

940
00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 7: Think the thing that I'm still not used to is

941
00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:52,480
Speaker 7: being able to or having to work, you know, on

942
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,640
Speaker 7: a bus when it's cramped, or you know, bust out

943
00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:58,960
Speaker 7: the laptop on a flight when you know the quarters

944
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:01,480
Speaker 7: are tight and the wife not all that great. You're

945
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:03,400
Speaker 7: just trying to like get a when you're on the

946
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:05,520
Speaker 7: plane for a long time and you know you've got

947
00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:07,719
Speaker 7: a lot of work to do, and the next day

948
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:09,920
Speaker 7: is like barreling down on you and it's not going

949
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:12,760
Speaker 7: to stop, right, It's rent swashed, repeat for the next day.

950
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:15,840
Speaker 7: Like the grind of the NFL cycle just is not

951
00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:18,080
Speaker 7: gonna stop for you or anybody else. Like you're trying

952
00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:21,040
Speaker 7: to get a leg up on working while you're traveling.

953
00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:24,360
Speaker 7: That that's the hardest part is just you know you

954
00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:26,200
Speaker 7: got to you cram all your stuff in a bag

955
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:27,920
Speaker 7: and you get it back out and you got you know,

956
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 7: the tight quarters of the airplane and you know you

957
00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:33,280
Speaker 7: drop your mouth, and all of a sudden, it's under

958
00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:34,759
Speaker 7: your seat or the seat in front of you or

959
00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:37,160
Speaker 7: behind you like that. That's the kind of stuff. But

960
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:39,440
Speaker 7: like people don't understand. It's like you're just trying to

961
00:49:39,520 --> 00:49:43,040
Speaker 7: work in these pockets of time while you're traveling and

962
00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:45,560
Speaker 7: there's a million things going on. But again, like you said,

963
00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:48,399
Speaker 7: nobody feel sorry for us. We're doing what we wanted

964
00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:50,520
Speaker 7: to do when we were ten years old. We don't

965
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:52,400
Speaker 7: really work for a living, right, We get to go

966
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:54,120
Speaker 7: to games and we get paid to do it. So,

967
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:57,520
Speaker 7: all things considered, man, life is pretty freaking glorious.

968
00:49:57,520 --> 00:50:00,120
Speaker 1: And under that same kind of tenor and and and

969
00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:04,560
Speaker 1: tents here and stuff that broadcast nerds care about. How

970
00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:09,520
Speaker 1: was your view You're in an amazingly historical stadium, and

971
00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:13,120
Speaker 1: I love the fact that clearly Jonathan Taylor's and others

972
00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:17,680
Speaker 1: grasped the importance of the nineteen thirty six Olympics in Berlin. Obviously,

973
00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:20,960
Speaker 1: James Boyd and Stephen Holder certainly had very poignant tweets

974
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:24,360
Speaker 1: about that as well. What was your location for the broadcast?

975
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:27,279
Speaker 1: How are the viewing angles? Because obviously that's not built

976
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:28,880
Speaker 1: for American football? What was it like?

977
00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:32,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, Olympic Stadium. You know, to your points, it's more

978
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:36,440
Speaker 7: for soccer, you know, from a modern you know, soccer

979
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:38,680
Speaker 7: is housed there on a more permanent basis. So they

980
00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:42,359
Speaker 7: actually had to build a makeshift press box and they

981
00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:45,480
Speaker 7: did a good job. You know, they had broadcast locations

982
00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:48,000
Speaker 7: for TV and radio, and they had other you know,

983
00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:50,960
Speaker 7: tables and other sections set up for the press media.

984
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,480
Speaker 7: And so we we basically, you know, we're we're outside

985
00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:57,200
Speaker 7: you know, the section that we were in, you know,

986
00:50:57,280 --> 00:51:00,680
Speaker 7: two sections over there's the fan, so you're basically out,

987
00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:04,440
Speaker 7: you know, amongst the public, amongst the fans. But we

988
00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:06,759
Speaker 7: had a really good sight line. We're pretty much at

989
00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:10,160
Speaker 7: the fifty yard line, you know, because the stadium used

990
00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:11,799
Speaker 7: to have a track around it. You felt like you

991
00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:15,440
Speaker 7: were pretty far away from the field itself. But you know,

992
00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:18,280
Speaker 7: that's that's that's okay. I mean you've got a monitored

993
00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:21,200
Speaker 7: XT and you've got binoculars to kind of make up

994
00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:25,880
Speaker 7: the difference where we were greg This is fascinating. You know,

995
00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:29,040
Speaker 7: the stadium itself is, from what I could tell, is

996
00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:34,319
Speaker 7: pretty much unchanged. You know, the the integrity of the

997
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:37,400
Speaker 7: stadium from when it opened in nineteen thirty six is

998
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:40,640
Speaker 7: pretty much unchanged. Like the structure of the blueprint, it's

999
00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:43,960
Speaker 7: pretty much the same. And you know, somebody from the

1000
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:48,000
Speaker 7: Falcons showed me this picture and I was just I

1001
00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:51,320
Speaker 7: stopped dead in my tracks when I saw it. Somebody

1002
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:55,880
Speaker 7: took a picture of our vantage point, you know, facing

1003
00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 7: the Olympic torch that is there at Olympic Stadium, and

1004
00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:05,680
Speaker 7: then they superimposed the nineteen thirty six view from that

1005
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:09,040
Speaker 7: same angle looking at the Olympic torch, and like there's

1006
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:12,680
Speaker 7: some app there's some modern technology that you can use

1007
00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:16,160
Speaker 7: to kind of overlap the two pictures. And it is

1008
00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:23,480
Speaker 7: just eerie how close we were to Adolph Hitler's you know,

1009
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:27,880
Speaker 7: perch or platform that that he stood in and sat

1010
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:31,919
Speaker 7: in when he took in games in that venue when

1011
00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:35,560
Speaker 7: it first opened. And that that made me feel a

1012
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:37,800
Speaker 7: lot of different things. I'm not gonna lie like that.

1013
00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:40,520
Speaker 7: I think that the word to use is eerie. And

1014
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:44,319
Speaker 7: obviously there's a lot of reverence for the history of

1015
00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:47,240
Speaker 7: Berlin and our two nations, you know, the United States

1016
00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:51,680
Speaker 7: and Germany, but that that made me feel just kind

1017
00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:56,359
Speaker 7: of uneasy and eerie, and and just while I appreciated

1018
00:52:56,360 --> 00:53:00,359
Speaker 7: everything about it, that the game was magnificent, and uh,

1019
00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:02,719
Speaker 7: you know the flags before the game. You know, half

1020
00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:05,279
Speaker 7: of the stadium divided in red, white and blue for

1021
00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:07,759
Speaker 7: the United States flag. The other half where we were

1022
00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:11,240
Speaker 7: was the German flag, you know, the red, the black

1023
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:13,160
Speaker 7: and the you know, and then the yell o.

1024
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:13,640
Speaker 4: It was.

1025
00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:17,520
Speaker 7: The game itself was fantastic and it's I'll remember that

1026
00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:19,920
Speaker 7: for the rest of my life. And tip of the

1027
00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:23,080
Speaker 7: cap to everybody involved. The NFL just hit an absolute

1028
00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:27,160
Speaker 7: grand slam in Berlin, and you know that the fans

1029
00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:31,480
Speaker 7: were simply outstanding, and you know they're going to go

1030
00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:33,920
Speaker 7: back there for sure because they really have something in

1031
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:37,040
Speaker 7: terms of energy and passion within that market.

1032
00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:39,160
Speaker 1: Well again, let me ask you this. Obviously, Matt Taylor

1033
00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:41,400
Speaker 1: joining us here, Greg gig shruffling in for j Query,

1034
00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:43,960
Speaker 1: Naughty three to five and one seven five. The fan

1035
00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:46,480
Speaker 1: the experience has kind of been freezed dry. He used

1036
00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:47,920
Speaker 1: to be if you're going to play overseas, you're going

1037
00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:49,920
Speaker 1: over for an entire week. And I think back to

1038
00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:53,479
Speaker 1: like the Colts going to Japan to play a preseason game,

1039
00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:56,160
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, twenty years ago. Now that that has

1040
00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:58,600
Speaker 1: been the case, but you're there basically for sixty hours

1041
00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 1: and obviously we do is fun, but but there are

1042
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:03,920
Speaker 1: work elements to what you do. So I know, it

1043
00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:06,560
Speaker 1: was just an hour or two here and there where

1044
00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:09,120
Speaker 1: you had events at a chance to intermingle with with

1045
00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:12,480
Speaker 1: Colts fans or you know, the European games are almost

1046
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:14,719
Speaker 1: kind of like hockey games just where any Jersey and

1047
00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:16,759
Speaker 1: it's it's cool. I mean, you know, it kind of

1048
00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:19,200
Speaker 1: means you're in uh in terms of being an NFL fan.

1049
00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:23,920
Speaker 1: You met Colts fans from what different countries while you

1050
00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:24,520
Speaker 1: were over.

1051
00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:32,960
Speaker 7: There, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the UK, Ireland. Uh. But then

1052
00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:36,239
Speaker 7: also too, like it's it's sports and the Colts in

1053
00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:41,360
Speaker 7: the NFL. It's the ultimate galvanizer, the the the ultimate

1054
00:54:41,520 --> 00:54:45,520
Speaker 7: United if you will. So I met Colts fans from Plainfield,

1055
00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:51,239
Speaker 7: Monrovia and so like that was great too. And the

1056
00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:55,600
Speaker 7: biggest thing that that I took from just interacting with

1057
00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:58,640
Speaker 7: the fans that I met is that they know ball

1058
00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:01,080
Speaker 7: greg you know, like it's not like they're just like

1059
00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:03,680
Speaker 7: happy to be there and you know, it's something to

1060
00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:06,120
Speaker 7: do and it's a spectacle to see. It's not like

1061
00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:08,040
Speaker 7: me going to a soccer game, where like I have

1062
00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:11,120
Speaker 7: a million questions, you know what I mean. Like the

1063
00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:13,880
Speaker 7: NFL has been at this now for a long time,

1064
00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:18,560
Speaker 7: you know, a decade plus of these NFL international games,

1065
00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:22,919
Speaker 7: and they've done such an amazing job of marketing themselves

1066
00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:26,560
Speaker 7: and these different regions. Like these people know what they're

1067
00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:29,480
Speaker 7: talking about. Like I met a group of guys and

1068
00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:31,280
Speaker 7: I sat there and I talked to him for almost

1069
00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:33,520
Speaker 7: like a half an hour, and we were just cause

1070
00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:36,479
Speaker 7: this is coming off the Pittsburgh game, before the Falcons game,

1071
00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:39,400
Speaker 7: and they're just lamenting the fact that, you know, the

1072
00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:41,800
Speaker 7: Colts got away from the ground game and they should

1073
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:44,960
Speaker 7: have wrote Jonathan Taylor more. Like they knew their stuff,

1074
00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:48,279
Speaker 7: Like they were talking you know, analytics and you know,

1075
00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:51,680
Speaker 7: third downs and formasians and we got to use Pierce

1076
00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:55,200
Speaker 7: more and you know, why can't we get Mooley Cox going?

1077
00:55:55,239 --> 00:55:58,000
Speaker 7: Like they knew their stuff and they were huge fans

1078
00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:01,560
Speaker 7: and so it was like high brow football conversation. It

1079
00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:04,000
Speaker 7: was I don't want to say surprising, but it was.

1080
00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:08,320
Speaker 7: It was really fun. And they had the Doss Center

1081
00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:11,239
Speaker 7: opened up. That daw Center is basically like you know

1082
00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:15,440
Speaker 7: think of you know, like downtown Cincinnati, right where Fountain

1083
00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:17,560
Speaker 7: Square is. You know, kind of a couple of blocks

1084
00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:20,160
Speaker 7: away from the stadium. That's kind of what the DOS

1085
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:22,920
Speaker 7: Center was, or maybe like Monument Circle for for us

1086
00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:26,920
Speaker 7: here in Indianapolis, big stage, kind of a big gathering space.

1087
00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:30,200
Speaker 7: They said they had over fifty thousand fans over the

1088
00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:32,800
Speaker 7: course of the three days that we were there Friday,

1089
00:56:32,840 --> 00:56:36,279
Speaker 7: Saturday and Sunday. For all these different events. There were uh,

1090
00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:39,800
Speaker 7: you know alumni uh boom players, you know Edrin James

1091
00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:43,879
Speaker 7: and Marshall Falk and not Marshall Falk, I beg your pardon.

1092
00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:46,360
Speaker 7: Dallas Clark was there, and Joe Wrights was there and

1093
00:56:46,360 --> 00:56:49,560
Speaker 7: Bill Brooks, uh, they were there signing autographs. There were

1094
00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:52,920
Speaker 7: you know, Jorn Werner had a huge events there and

1095
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:56,880
Speaker 7: so they there were all these you know, public uh facing,

1096
00:56:57,280 --> 00:57:00,080
Speaker 7: fan facing events for for people to come in and

1097
00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:03,719
Speaker 7: just you know, experience these other things a part of

1098
00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:06,360
Speaker 7: the game. And so it was just really really in

1099
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:10,279
Speaker 7: a fun and entertaining way to you know, see the

1100
00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:13,520
Speaker 7: growth of not only the Colts but the NFL. You know,

1101
00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:16,400
Speaker 7: a couple of blocks away from the DA Center, Greg

1102
00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:19,640
Speaker 7: is the NFL Pro Shop, and it's a huge pro

1103
00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:23,080
Speaker 7: shop like think like almost like heyday of Circle Center

1104
00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:25,440
Speaker 7: Mall in downtown Indianapolis, and there was like an hour

1105
00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:28,080
Speaker 7: and a half line just to get in. Wow, people

1106
00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:32,240
Speaker 7: were just dying to buy NFL merchandise. And it wasn't

1107
00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:35,920
Speaker 7: just Colts and Falcons, it was anything related to the

1108
00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:40,440
Speaker 7: NFL jerseys, hats, socks, scarfs. I mean, it really is

1109
00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:42,880
Speaker 7: a big deal there. And I talked to Roger Goodell,

1110
00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:46,200
Speaker 7: had a great opportunity to visit with him before the

1111
00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:49,680
Speaker 7: game on the sideline, and he said, there's twenty million

1112
00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:54,120
Speaker 7: German NFL fans in that country, and so you know,

1113
00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:58,000
Speaker 7: whether it's Munich or Berlin or Frankfurt, these games are

1114
00:57:58,040 --> 00:57:59,640
Speaker 7: not going away anytime soon.

1115
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:01,920
Speaker 1: And Matt Taylor voice of the Colts joining us here,

1116
00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:04,680
Speaker 1: Greg Rakshaw filling in for Jay Query Dottie three to

1117
00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:06,360
Speaker 1: five and one oh seven to five of the fans,

1118
00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:10,080
Speaker 1: so on to the business of football. And I frankly

1119
00:58:10,120 --> 00:58:13,200
Speaker 1: think the answer to this question will change for the

1120
00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:15,680
Speaker 1: Kansas City game after he's now had a couple of

1121
00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:18,959
Speaker 1: weeks to get settled. But looking back on the game,

1122
00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:23,000
Speaker 1: seeing Sauce Gardner out there, did what for the Indianapolis

1123
00:58:23,040 --> 00:58:24,960
Speaker 1: Colts defense, Yeah, I.

1124
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:27,200
Speaker 7: Think it gives him a lot of confidence going forward.

1125
00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:29,120
Speaker 7: You know, he had the one play where he kind

1126
00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:32,720
Speaker 7: of baited Michael Pennix Junior into a bad throw to

1127
00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:35,680
Speaker 7: Drake London, and you know, nine times out of ten

1128
00:58:35,720 --> 00:58:37,960
Speaker 7: he's gonna make that catch and probably go the other

1129
00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:40,360
Speaker 7: plan to score a touchdown. He got a little bit

1130
00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:43,320
Speaker 7: ahead of himself there and dropped the ball, but still,

1131
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:45,680
Speaker 7: I mean it was a great play, and I think

1132
00:58:45,720 --> 00:58:49,920
Speaker 7: you expect more of that kind of impact within this secondary.

1133
00:58:49,960 --> 00:58:52,280
Speaker 7: And like you said, you know, you fast forward to

1134
00:58:52,320 --> 00:58:54,919
Speaker 7: the Kansas City game coming up, and you know, knock

1135
00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:57,800
Speaker 7: on wood, nothing freakish happens over the bye or the

1136
00:58:57,840 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 7: next week of practice going into that Chiefs game. But

1137
00:59:00,880 --> 00:59:04,440
Speaker 7: you could have a healthy secondary and it looks like

1138
00:59:04,520 --> 00:59:08,880
Speaker 7: this in terms of personnel, Jalen Jones, Kenny Morch, Oarvarius

1139
00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:13,040
Speaker 7: Ward and then Sauce Gardner Greg I mean, personnel wise,

1140
00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:17,600
Speaker 7: name me a more impactful secondary. I mean, you're like

1141
00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:20,200
Speaker 7: foaming at the mouth as a fan just thinking about

1142
00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:23,320
Speaker 7: what could be right there, especially in the last seven

1143
00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:25,920
Speaker 7: games of the season when you're trying to kind of

1144
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:29,600
Speaker 7: calm down the passing numbers against the Colts have allowed

1145
00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:32,600
Speaker 7: and you're gonna see some pretty decent quarterbacks obviously in

1146
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:37,160
Speaker 7: Mahomes and Trevor Lawrence and c. J. Stroud twice if

1147
00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:40,000
Speaker 7: you can come back from this concussion. So I mean,

1148
00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:43,640
Speaker 7: you got seven games left, and it finally looks like

1149
00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:47,200
Speaker 7: this secondary is going to be in a position to

1150
00:59:47,320 --> 00:59:50,280
Speaker 7: be impactful like we thought it was gonna be when

1151
00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:53,400
Speaker 7: guys reported on July twenty fourth for the start of

1152
00:59:53,440 --> 00:59:57,520
Speaker 7: training camp. It's certainly a different iteration of the secondary

1153
00:59:57,560 --> 00:59:59,880
Speaker 7: we thought we were going to see, but impactful on

1154
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:03,720
Speaker 7: paper and in terms of potential nonetheless. So I'm really

1155
01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:06,120
Speaker 7: excited about that. I think that's probably the part of

1156
01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:09,360
Speaker 7: the defense that I'm I'm most eager to see once

1157
01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:11,720
Speaker 7: we get back to regular season football in a couple

1158
01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:12,120
Speaker 7: of weeks.

1159
01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:15,000
Speaker 1: Again, maybe now is the time. Much like coaches can

1160
01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:18,040
Speaker 1: self scout, you can kind of self reflect here too.

1161
01:00:18,160 --> 01:00:20,040
Speaker 1: You and I are now of an age. You have

1162
01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:21,760
Speaker 1: been the man on the call of every one of

1163
01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:25,720
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor's carries as a member of the Indianapolis Colts.

1164
01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:29,480
Speaker 1: His twenty twenty one season was special. This one has

1165
01:00:29,480 --> 01:00:32,840
Speaker 1: the potential to be even better, slash greater than that.

1166
01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:37,200
Speaker 1: What are you seeing from Jonathan Taylor? Now that maybe

1167
01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:39,840
Speaker 1: even we haven't seen up until this point in his

1168
01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:41,320
Speaker 1: previous five years.

1169
01:00:41,720 --> 01:00:43,880
Speaker 7: You know what, I think that's a really good question.

1170
01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:48,560
Speaker 7: And I think and I don't want to like, you know,

1171
01:00:48,600 --> 01:00:51,000
Speaker 7: puff out my chests and you know, like like toot

1172
01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:53,840
Speaker 7: my own horn here, but like we had this like

1173
01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:58,720
Speaker 7: high level discussion before the season started. We said that

1174
01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:02,120
Speaker 7: the question was, in order for the Colts to have

1175
01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:06,640
Speaker 7: like big time success in twenty twenty five, like do

1176
01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:10,400
Speaker 7: something big and substantial, what is more important for this

1177
01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:11,640
Speaker 7: team on offense?

1178
01:01:12,040 --> 01:01:12,400
Speaker 3: Is it for?

1179
01:01:12,520 --> 01:01:15,400
Speaker 7: Is it is it more important for Jonathan Taylor to

1180
01:01:15,480 --> 01:01:18,480
Speaker 7: have a mega year like like he had last year

1181
01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:22,800
Speaker 7: twenty twenty one, you know, fourteen hundred yards plus or

1182
01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:26,000
Speaker 7: is it more important for the Colts quarterback Because at

1183
01:01:26,000 --> 01:01:27,680
Speaker 7: the beginning of the season, we don't know if we

1184
01:01:27,680 --> 01:01:29,760
Speaker 7: didn't know if it was going to be Daniel Jones

1185
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:32,360
Speaker 7: or Anthony Richardson, so we just kept it vague. Is

1186
01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:35,600
Speaker 7: it more important for the Colts quarterback to flirt with

1187
01:01:35,680 --> 01:01:39,680
Speaker 7: like four thousand yards passing? Any thing? And then And

1188
01:01:40,040 --> 01:01:42,040
Speaker 7: don't get me wrong, I know there's gonna be people

1189
01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:44,000
Speaker 7: out there that are gonna be yelling at me over this,

1190
01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:48,200
Speaker 7: but for the overall health of the team. I still

1191
01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:51,560
Speaker 7: think it's more important for the Colts to have success

1192
01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:55,560
Speaker 7: in the passing game because the passing game opens up

1193
01:01:55,600 --> 01:01:58,520
Speaker 7: the running game for Jonathan Taylor, Right, I think I

1194
01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:04,320
Speaker 7: think Taylor is stupendous this year because of Daniel Jones.

1195
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:09,080
Speaker 7: He's a little bit more efficient this year, and it's

1196
01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:13,400
Speaker 7: putting more stress on defenses when they face Taylor because

1197
01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:16,000
Speaker 7: they also have to respect the passing game.

1198
01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:16,720
Speaker 4: Right.

1199
01:02:16,800 --> 01:02:18,919
Speaker 7: I mean, you go back a couple of years ago

1200
01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:23,120
Speaker 7: in twenty twenty one, eighteen hundred yards, Colts didn't make

1201
01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:26,680
Speaker 7: the playoffs. You go back last year Taylor fourteen hundred yards,

1202
01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:29,680
Speaker 7: Colts didn't make the playoffs. He had a nice surge

1203
01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:32,080
Speaker 7: to the end of the twenty twenty three season as well,

1204
01:02:32,280 --> 01:02:35,400
Speaker 7: where Like at the end of that year, Taylor basically

1205
01:02:35,880 --> 01:02:38,200
Speaker 7: was the offense for the Colts. Right, Remember that game

1206
01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:40,440
Speaker 7: against the Patriots at the end of the year on

1207
01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:42,840
Speaker 7: a Saturday night, Like the Colts had like one hundred

1208
01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:47,000
Speaker 7: and twenty yards passing, Right, Taylor was the game. He

1209
01:02:47,400 --> 01:02:51,840
Speaker 7: was the offense. This year, he's not the offense. He's

1210
01:02:52,040 --> 01:02:54,960
Speaker 7: a huge part of the offense, but it doesn't it's

1211
01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:59,800
Speaker 7: not like the offense goes through exclusively Jonathan Taylor. I

1212
01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:03,160
Speaker 7: think because the passing game is there this year, it's

1213
01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:08,360
Speaker 7: allowing Taylor to absolutely thrive because the defense is generally

1214
01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:12,840
Speaker 7: speaking here a little bit more spread out, the boxes

1215
01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:16,040
Speaker 7: a little bit wider, and people on the outside have

1216
01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:19,880
Speaker 7: to respect the heck out of Pittman and Pierce in Warren,

1217
01:03:20,240 --> 01:03:23,240
Speaker 7: so you know you're not seeing teams sell out to

1218
01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:26,680
Speaker 7: stop the run in Jonathan Taylor. And if they do, Greg,

1219
01:03:26,720 --> 01:03:28,560
Speaker 7: the Colts will just kill you in the passing game,

1220
01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:31,120
Speaker 7: like they've shown the ability to do this year. So

1221
01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:35,920
Speaker 7: I think Taylor's mega season so far this year is

1222
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:39,560
Speaker 7: in part thanks to Daniel Jones in the passing game

1223
01:03:39,560 --> 01:03:41,560
Speaker 7: and the other skilled players for the Colts on offense.

1224
01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:42,320
Speaker 7: If that makes sense.

1225
01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:45,120
Speaker 1: Listen, I know how this works. I have a Sunday

1226
01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:47,520
Speaker 1: off for the first time since Labor Day weekend, as

1227
01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:50,600
Speaker 1: do you. My guess would be the honeydew list is

1228
01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:52,720
Speaker 1: going to be a little significant now. I have to

1229
01:03:52,760 --> 01:03:55,440
Speaker 1: work Friday and Saturday. You don't, You got a little time.

1230
01:03:56,600 --> 01:03:59,840
Speaker 1: How much NFL football do you consume on a day

1231
01:04:00,560 --> 01:04:03,560
Speaker 1: when you're not calling an NFL game? What does your

1232
01:04:03,600 --> 01:04:04,480
Speaker 1: Sunday look like.

1233
01:04:04,960 --> 01:04:07,880
Speaker 7: Well, that's what I'm excited to actually do because I

1234
01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:12,080
Speaker 7: don't get to do that at all during cold season,

1235
01:04:12,080 --> 01:04:15,000
Speaker 7: because you know, I get home at you know, if

1236
01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:16,840
Speaker 7: it's a home game at one o'clock, I'll get home

1237
01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:19,360
Speaker 7: at five o'clock and then you know, try to be

1238
01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:21,240
Speaker 7: dad for a couple hours and then go back to

1239
01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:23,040
Speaker 7: work to get a leg up on the next day.

1240
01:04:23,120 --> 01:04:25,960
Speaker 7: So I don't get to watch a whole lot of football.

1241
01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:30,200
Speaker 7: So I'm excited for that. My daughter has some basketball

1242
01:04:30,240 --> 01:04:32,880
Speaker 7: games Saturday and Sunday, so I haven't been able to

1243
01:04:32,880 --> 01:04:34,840
Speaker 7: go to those the last two weekends because we've been

1244
01:04:34,880 --> 01:04:36,960
Speaker 7: on the road. So I'll go to those in the

1245
01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:40,480
Speaker 7: early afternoon both days and then you know, hopefully take

1246
01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:43,320
Speaker 7: in you know, the late afternoon games on Sunday and

1247
01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:46,480
Speaker 7: maybe watch a little Sunday night football. I'm really excited

1248
01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:48,880
Speaker 7: for it. But you know, you mentioned that Honeydoo list.

1249
01:04:48,920 --> 01:04:51,360
Speaker 7: That's been what I've been doing the last two days.

1250
01:04:51,400 --> 01:04:56,040
Speaker 7: I'm worn out, brother. This house has been neglected just

1251
01:04:56,080 --> 01:04:58,600
Speaker 7: because of you know, the grind of everything and being

1252
01:04:58,640 --> 01:05:01,800
Speaker 7: gone every weekend. So I got that behind me, and

1253
01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:03,960
Speaker 7: so I think after this phone call and maybe on

1254
01:05:04,040 --> 01:05:06,800
Speaker 7: in tomorrow I'll be able to kind of put the

1255
01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:09,000
Speaker 7: feet up a little bit and catch up on.

1256
01:05:09,000 --> 01:05:11,280
Speaker 1: Life about to be beverage thirty. In other words, for

1257
01:05:11,360 --> 01:05:14,640
Speaker 1: Matt Taylor, is what he is saying, go kick your feetback, friend.

1258
01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:16,520
Speaker 1: I appreciate the time. I'll see it practice at some

1259
01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:17,320
Speaker 1: point next week.

1260
01:05:17,760 --> 01:05:19,680
Speaker 7: All right, appreciate you, Greg again.

1261
01:05:19,400 --> 01:05:23,920
Speaker 1: Matt Taylor. Obviously, normally it's he then me on Sundays,

1262
01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:27,439
Speaker 1: not the case this time. In case you were wondering, hey,

1263
01:05:27,480 --> 01:05:29,880
Speaker 1: what does the fan air on a Sunday where there's

1264
01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:32,640
Speaker 1: no Colts and there's no Pacers game, Because the Pacers

1265
01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:36,160
Speaker 1: play on Saturday. The Pacers play on Monday as well. Well,

1266
01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:40,320
Speaker 1: it's the Chargers and Jaguars at one, it is the

1267
01:05:40,440 --> 01:05:45,160
Speaker 1: Chiefs and Broncos at four point fifteen. And again we

1268
01:05:45,200 --> 01:05:46,680
Speaker 1: are at that point in time of the year where

1269
01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:49,360
Speaker 1: I do have the schedule coming to the memory at

1270
01:05:49,360 --> 01:05:53,520
Speaker 1: this point at the Chiefs home to the Texans, at

1271
01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:57,480
Speaker 1: the Jaguars at the Seahawks, Monday Night football for the

1272
01:05:57,480 --> 01:06:01,280
Speaker 1: forty nine Ers home to the Jaguars at the Texans.

1273
01:06:01,640 --> 01:06:04,400
Speaker 1: That is what is left for the Colts. And again,

1274
01:06:05,480 --> 01:06:08,600
Speaker 1: Colts have not had a home playoff game since twenty fourteen,

1275
01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:11,920
Speaker 1: was the last time they won the AFC South. Colts

1276
01:06:11,960 --> 01:06:14,520
Speaker 1: have not played a day playoff game since the end

1277
01:06:14,520 --> 01:06:17,360
Speaker 1: of the twenty twenty season. That was the Saturday afternoon

1278
01:06:17,400 --> 01:06:20,600
Speaker 1: loss in January of twenty one in Buffalo to Josh

1279
01:06:20,600 --> 01:06:23,280
Speaker 1: Allen and the Bills. The Colts have not won a

1280
01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:26,840
Speaker 1: playoff game since twenty eighteen, and that would be the

1281
01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:29,920
Speaker 1: game against the Houston Texans before they had been lost

1282
01:06:30,360 --> 01:06:33,760
Speaker 1: to the Kansas City Chiefs. And speaking of those Chiefs,

1283
01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:36,200
Speaker 1: the last two times the Colts have played the Chiefs

1284
01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:39,120
Speaker 1: in the regular season, the Colts have beaten them both

1285
01:06:39,160 --> 01:06:44,280
Speaker 1: times twenty nineteen on Sunday Night Football and twenty twenty two,

1286
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:47,920
Speaker 1: a year where the Colts won four stinking games the

1287
01:06:48,160 --> 01:06:51,880
Speaker 1: entire season. Jelannie Woods had himself a day with two

1288
01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:54,720
Speaker 1: touchdown catches and the Colts beat Patrick Mahomes and the

1289
01:06:54,800 --> 01:06:58,600
Speaker 1: Chiefs here at Lucas Oil Stadium what was obviously the

1290
01:06:58,720 --> 01:07:01,720
Speaker 1: high water mark for the twenty twenty two season for

1291
01:07:01,880 --> 01:07:02,959
Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts.

1292
01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:05,720
Speaker 2: Still fascinating to know what Chris Jones said to get

1293
01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:09,640
Speaker 2: that crucial flag dixed in the drive there for the

1294
01:07:09,640 --> 01:07:11,680
Speaker 2: Colts I've been fourth down.

1295
01:07:11,800 --> 01:07:14,520
Speaker 1: I had forgotten that part of the equation because my

1296
01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:17,240
Speaker 1: psychotherapist had asked me to largely block out the twenty

1297
01:07:17,320 --> 01:07:21,360
Speaker 1: twenty two seasons. So yes, that is still to the

1298
01:07:21,400 --> 01:07:24,760
Speaker 1: wonderment and amazement of all of those involved. We will

1299
01:07:24,760 --> 01:07:27,880
Speaker 1: have more colts conversation. If you want us to have

1300
01:07:27,960 --> 01:07:30,480
Speaker 1: more colts conversation, I have another great guest. I've got

1301
01:07:30,560 --> 01:07:32,960
Speaker 1: three more of them for the remainder of the show,

1302
01:07:32,960 --> 01:07:35,720
Speaker 1: and all of them are talking football, but all things

1303
01:07:35,760 --> 01:07:39,400
Speaker 1: other than colts football. College football will be the dominant

1304
01:07:39,440 --> 01:07:42,120
Speaker 1: topic over the next hour because we're going to talk

1305
01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:47,440
Speaker 1: to both head coach participants in the one hundred and

1306
01:07:47,600 --> 01:07:52,120
Speaker 1: thirty first Monon Bell Classic. The home team has elected

1307
01:07:52,160 --> 01:07:56,040
Speaker 1: to receive. Wabash College will have the ball first. Their

1316
01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:23,559

Speaker 1: Now, I told Eddie to play some Falco at some

1320
01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:34,960
Speaker 1: point in time. This is not yet. We'll do that

1321
01:08:36,200 --> 01:08:39,800
Speaker 1: a little bit later on in the program. This might

1322
01:08:39,800 --> 01:08:42,720
Speaker 1: be considered like blasphemous that I'm talking over this. If

1323
01:08:42,720 --> 01:08:46,439
Speaker 1: you're a Wabash person, I'm gonna test Jake Gilbert's hearing

1324
01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:50,800
Speaker 1: on the Java House Peel and poor guest line, Jake,

1325
01:08:50,880 --> 01:08:52,880
Speaker 1: what song are we listening to coming out of a

1326
01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:53,639
Speaker 1: break right now?

1327
01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:58,639
Speaker 6: That would be the longest school fight song in the nation.

1328
01:09:00,479 --> 01:09:04,280
Speaker 1: Of the Wabash College Little Giants outstanding. And Jake isn't

1329
01:09:04,320 --> 01:09:08,120
Speaker 1: just the first year head coach of the Wabashed Little Giants.

1330
01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:11,200
Speaker 1: Jake is a Wabash Man. And that is a statement

1331
01:09:11,200 --> 01:09:13,760
Speaker 1: that has a lot of residents because once you're a

1332
01:09:13,800 --> 01:09:17,400
Speaker 1: Wabash alum, that is that is part of your identity, frankly,

1333
01:09:17,720 --> 01:09:20,680
Speaker 1: for the remainder of your life, and almost generations of

1334
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:23,720
Speaker 1: families as well. And let's start right there. You're going

1335
01:09:23,760 --> 01:09:26,000
Speaker 1: to have a father son experience You've got a son

1336
01:09:26,040 --> 01:09:29,200
Speaker 1: that's a backup quarterback for you in Saturday's game. You

1337
01:09:29,240 --> 01:09:31,439
Speaker 1: and I had an off air conversation yesterday and't even

1338
01:09:31,439 --> 01:09:33,439
Speaker 1: bring that up. What is this going to be like

1339
01:09:33,479 --> 01:09:36,280
Speaker 1: to experience this as a former player, as a head coach,

1340
01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:38,560
Speaker 1: and a dad on Saturday afternoon?

1341
01:09:40,160 --> 01:09:46,080
Speaker 6: Well? What the same outcome for all three?

1342
01:09:46,920 --> 01:09:47,280
Speaker 2: All right?

1343
01:09:47,360 --> 01:09:52,000
Speaker 6: Now, I would say the way I feel about desperately

1344
01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:55,360
Speaker 6: wanting our seniors to experience winning the bill. You know,

1345
01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:57,920
Speaker 6: I feel the same way about my son. You know.

1346
01:09:57,960 --> 01:10:01,599
Speaker 6: I hope that obviously that he gets experience the joy

1347
01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:04,920
Speaker 6: of winning the bell. Now, as the head coach says,

1348
01:10:04,960 --> 01:10:07,559
Speaker 6: my love, you know, it's a little more pressure to

1349
01:10:07,600 --> 01:10:12,000
Speaker 6: do my job, but you know, as a dad, I'm

1350
01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:15,640
Speaker 6: proud of me. He's a perfect place for him. I

1351
01:10:15,680 --> 01:10:19,240
Speaker 6: hope he gets part of that experience too. You really

1352
01:10:19,280 --> 01:10:22,400
Speaker 6: can't have a full potential experience here without winning the bell.

1353
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:25,240
Speaker 6: So I want for all of our guys to go

1354
01:10:25,320 --> 01:10:25,720
Speaker 6: through that.

1355
01:10:26,120 --> 01:10:28,840
Speaker 1: Understood and knowing you the way that I do is

1356
01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:30,960
Speaker 1: as you and I've known you other for more years

1357
01:10:30,960 --> 01:10:33,840
Speaker 1: than we can count. At this point, I knew there

1358
01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:36,320
Speaker 1: was literally one job you would have left your gig

1359
01:10:36,360 --> 01:10:39,640
Speaker 1: at Westfield four and that was the that was to

1360
01:10:39,760 --> 01:10:42,360
Speaker 1: beat potentially the head coach at Wabash College. You were

1361
01:10:42,360 --> 01:10:45,600
Speaker 1: the coach in waiting last year Don Morrell retires, you

1362
01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:49,240
Speaker 1: become the head coach this season. We're begin to describe

1363
01:10:49,280 --> 01:10:51,720
Speaker 1: why this was the job you were going to leave

1364
01:10:51,720 --> 01:10:52,280
Speaker 1: Westfield for.

1365
01:10:54,200 --> 01:10:56,680
Speaker 6: Well, you know, part of it's just out of this

1366
01:10:56,920 --> 01:11:02,080
Speaker 6: love and my love for the college and just gratitude. Frankly,

1367
01:11:02,280 --> 01:11:05,600
Speaker 6: I just feel like this place changed the trajectory of

1368
01:11:05,640 --> 01:11:11,240
Speaker 6: my entire life. And I don't know how better I

1369
01:11:11,280 --> 01:11:13,920
Speaker 6: can give back than to coach the football team, because

1370
01:11:13,920 --> 01:11:17,720
Speaker 6: that's what I do. Not that I'm the answer for

1371
01:11:17,760 --> 01:11:20,879
Speaker 6: all things that. Man, I am passionate about Walbash football,

1372
01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:24,080
Speaker 6: and I will give everything I possibly can to help

1373
01:11:24,200 --> 01:11:27,240
Speaker 6: our program and help our school. And I think it's

1374
01:11:27,240 --> 01:11:29,600
Speaker 6: just such a you know, obviously a great opportunity for

1375
01:11:29,640 --> 01:11:33,439
Speaker 6: me individually, but it's more though too. You know, I'm

1376
01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:36,920
Speaker 6: motivated to service. I think I help. I believe that

1377
01:11:37,000 --> 01:11:39,160
Speaker 6: we can be great here. I've been a part of

1378
01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:42,160
Speaker 6: great football programs here and teams, and I think we

1379
01:11:42,200 --> 01:11:46,280
Speaker 6: can restore all of that. So I mean, this works

1380
01:11:46,280 --> 01:11:48,800
Speaker 6: out for me individually at a major level because I've

1381
01:11:48,800 --> 01:11:52,600
Speaker 6: got the best job there is in college football. So

1382
01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:54,639
Speaker 6: you know, there's that, But I do think I can

1383
01:11:54,680 --> 01:11:58,280
Speaker 6: help and help grow us into becoming a national power

1384
01:11:58,280 --> 01:11:58,920
Speaker 6: again again.

1385
01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:01,559
Speaker 1: Jake Gilbert Wabash, head coach, one hundred and thirty first

1386
01:12:01,560 --> 01:12:04,160
Speaker 1: mo Non Bell Classic. It's a sellout, folks. If you

1387
01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:06,040
Speaker 1: don't have your ticket, you're stuck watching me on the

1388
01:12:06,360 --> 01:12:09,320
Speaker 1: IC Sports Network. Coming up Saturday afternoon one to clack.

1389
01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:12,960
Speaker 1: Kickoff will be at one o seven. It is tough

1390
01:12:13,520 --> 01:12:16,320
Speaker 1: for any freshman to come in and make an impact,

1391
01:12:16,640 --> 01:12:20,479
Speaker 1: and maybe even more so now because frankly, guys, you know,

1392
01:12:20,479 --> 01:12:22,719
Speaker 1: you know about the transfer portal as much at your place,

1393
01:12:23,080 --> 01:12:25,600
Speaker 1: but still because guys are a little bit older that

1394
01:12:25,680 --> 01:12:29,000
Speaker 1: are playing, et cetera. But at a place like Wahbash.

1395
01:12:29,439 --> 01:12:31,519
Speaker 1: How much of an adjustment period do you kind of

1396
01:12:31,560 --> 01:12:34,439
Speaker 1: have to give freshmen because of the unique nature of

1397
01:12:34,479 --> 01:12:37,400
Speaker 1: the school, all the traditions there asked to be a

1398
01:12:37,439 --> 01:12:40,040
Speaker 1: part of. How does that change kind of the curve

1399
01:12:40,120 --> 01:12:41,840
Speaker 1: for freshmen that you have at your school.

1400
01:12:43,479 --> 01:12:47,880
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, I think there's usually we felt like

1401
01:12:47,920 --> 01:12:50,400
Speaker 6: in high school with a young guy, they're not ready

1402
01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:52,840
Speaker 6: at the beginning, but you kind of know by say,

1403
01:12:52,880 --> 01:12:54,760
Speaker 6: week two or three, Is this guy going to make

1404
01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:56,559
Speaker 6: a jump and help you the rest of the way.

1405
01:12:57,080 --> 01:12:59,840
Speaker 6: Is he going to be mature enough and things like that, Well,

1406
01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:04,000
Speaker 6: we have that still here. People have to adapt to college,

1407
01:13:04,320 --> 01:13:07,760
Speaker 6: adapt to playing against twenty two year olds, adapt to

1408
01:13:08,560 --> 01:13:11,720
Speaker 6: all the things that we're demanding from them. But in

1409
01:13:11,720 --> 01:13:15,720
Speaker 6: addition to that, the rigors of the school, our fraternity

1410
01:13:15,760 --> 01:13:18,360
Speaker 6: system where they pledge right away and it's pretty tough.

1411
01:13:19,360 --> 01:13:22,960
Speaker 6: All of those things can kind of be like a

1412
01:13:23,080 --> 01:13:25,920
Speaker 6: wall at the end of the experience. And so sometimes

1413
01:13:26,640 --> 01:13:28,799
Speaker 6: maybe a freshman gets off to a pretty hot start,

1414
01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:35,040
Speaker 6: but they level off because just accumulative total of the

1415
01:13:35,120 --> 01:13:38,240
Speaker 6: rigor of the school and what's demanded out of them,

1416
01:13:38,240 --> 01:13:40,160
Speaker 6: where they live and they're living unit, all of that

1417
01:13:40,240 --> 01:13:43,000
Speaker 6: adds up and there's just so much, so much capacity

1418
01:13:43,080 --> 01:13:45,400
Speaker 6: for them. And so I think we do see that

1419
01:13:45,600 --> 01:13:48,880
Speaker 6: sometimes our freshman year they're not quite as good as

1420
01:13:48,880 --> 01:13:50,400
Speaker 6: they are the next three years because they just have

1421
01:13:50,479 --> 01:13:51,680
Speaker 6: so much underplate and they're not.

1422
01:13:51,720 --> 01:13:52,400
Speaker 4: Used to it yet.

1423
01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:54,799
Speaker 1: You and I, again, I have talked about this before,

1424
01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:56,200
Speaker 1: and I've been lucky. You know, this would be the

1425
01:13:56,200 --> 01:13:58,160
Speaker 1: third game on your campus. I have had the honor

1426
01:13:58,160 --> 01:14:00,439
Speaker 1: of calling from the mono on Bell broad cast and

1427
01:14:00,800 --> 01:14:03,840
Speaker 1: you know your office, you may look different because what

1428
01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:06,680
Speaker 1: is a great stadium when there's not temporary bleachers have

1429
01:14:06,720 --> 01:14:09,639
Speaker 1: a lot more seats in them now because you're preparing

1430
01:14:09,680 --> 01:14:13,479
Speaker 1: for ten thousand plus to invade Crawfordsville over the course

1431
01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:16,720
Speaker 1: of the weekend and on Saturday morning and afternoon into

1432
01:14:16,760 --> 01:14:20,240
Speaker 1: the evening. What is Bell week like when you are

1433
01:14:20,240 --> 01:14:22,760
Speaker 1: hosting at Wabash.

1434
01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:26,240
Speaker 6: Well, a little crazy, a lot more demands on your time.

1435
01:14:27,520 --> 01:14:31,040
Speaker 6: And that's not always just say media interviews, I mean

1436
01:14:31,120 --> 01:14:34,599
Speaker 6: just well wishing right, I mean, so the honest truth

1437
01:14:34,720 --> 01:14:37,960
Speaker 6: is the alumni base really only care about this one game.

1438
01:14:41,120 --> 01:14:45,080
Speaker 6: They care about more than that, not really. So you

1439
01:14:45,120 --> 01:14:47,640
Speaker 6: know the amount of people that would reach out and

1440
01:14:47,720 --> 01:14:50,479
Speaker 6: say good luck, for example, send you an email, send

1441
01:14:50,520 --> 01:14:52,800
Speaker 6: you a text, give you a call. Well, they're not

1442
01:14:52,880 --> 01:14:56,920
Speaker 6: calling when we're playing Ohio Wedland. They're not sending me

1443
01:14:56,960 --> 01:14:59,559
Speaker 6: an email when it's like Kenyon. I mean they're but

1444
01:14:59,640 --> 01:15:02,400
Speaker 6: they all reach out this week because they want to

1445
01:15:02,400 --> 01:15:05,160
Speaker 6: be a part of it, including they generally, so that

1446
01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:08,520
Speaker 6: takes a lot of your time. And then there's alumni

1447
01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:12,240
Speaker 6: engagements that are positive that sometimes I try to get

1448
01:15:12,240 --> 01:15:16,360
Speaker 6: out of and then you know, we have a monon

1449
01:15:16,400 --> 01:15:19,760
Speaker 6: belt chapel, which is a big tradition here, so they

1450
01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:21,679
Speaker 6: head coach and the captains have to give a speech.

1451
01:15:22,240 --> 01:15:25,479
Speaker 6: There's just a lot going on basically, and it's all positive.

1452
01:15:25,520 --> 01:15:29,000
Speaker 6: It's all great, but you know it's a lot, especially

1453
01:15:29,040 --> 01:15:30,880
Speaker 6: when you're playing the most important game.

1454
01:15:31,880 --> 01:15:33,720
Speaker 1: I know, you have a world of respect for the

1455
01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:35,760
Speaker 1: guy on the opposite sideline in Brett Dates and you

1456
01:15:35,840 --> 01:15:38,720
Speaker 1: know that a's a heck of a football team. Just

1457
01:15:38,800 --> 01:15:41,280
Speaker 1: kind of quick thoughts on what the Depaud Tigers are

1458
01:15:41,320 --> 01:15:43,040
Speaker 1: bringing to you on Saturday afternoon.

1459
01:15:43,960 --> 01:15:46,400
Speaker 6: Well, those guys deserve a math amount of credit. We're

1460
01:15:46,439 --> 01:15:48,679
Speaker 6: just building a great program. I mean, Brett has done

1461
01:15:49,640 --> 01:15:54,880
Speaker 6: a phenomenal job. I mean pretty amazing four years. I

1462
01:15:54,880 --> 01:15:58,519
Speaker 6: can say that. So they they have become the leader

1463
01:15:58,520 --> 01:16:02,280
Speaker 6: in this conference. They have we can set aside maybe

1464
01:16:02,280 --> 01:16:06,160
Speaker 6: our hatred for each other, but just respectfully speaking, like

1465
01:16:06,240 --> 01:16:10,120
Speaker 6: they have done what I'm out to do. You know

1466
01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:12,320
Speaker 6: what we are out to do here, They've accomplished it.

1467
01:16:12,760 --> 01:16:15,759
Speaker 6: So they've been tremendous. They've done a great job coaching,

1468
01:16:16,160 --> 01:16:20,719
Speaker 6: developing their guys. You know, they just graduated some stud

1469
01:16:20,840 --> 01:16:24,320
Speaker 6: defensive players and here what they are. The next year

1470
01:16:24,400 --> 01:16:27,720
Speaker 6: we loaded they're leading the nation and rush defense again. Right,

1471
01:16:28,320 --> 01:16:33,400
Speaker 6: So obviously coach Eve's coach mcwaine. You know, they've got

1472
01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:37,000
Speaker 6: a new quarterback and yet they're still averaging, you know,

1473
01:16:37,920 --> 01:16:43,120
Speaker 6: the second most points in our conference. So kudos to

1474
01:16:43,160 --> 01:16:45,360
Speaker 6: their staff. They've really done a great job.

1475
01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:49,200
Speaker 1: I don't think before I let you go again, we've

1476
01:16:49,240 --> 01:16:52,680
Speaker 1: talked about the uniqueness, the greatness, that the specialness of

1477
01:16:53,040 --> 01:16:56,519
Speaker 1: Wabash College. But when it comes to this game, because

1478
01:16:56,560 --> 01:16:58,800
Speaker 1: you have now lived as a player, you have lived

1479
01:16:58,880 --> 01:17:02,000
Speaker 1: as an assistant coach, you're up in the booth of

1480
01:17:02,040 --> 01:17:04,200
Speaker 1: me as a fan a couple of times over the

1481
01:17:04,240 --> 01:17:08,120
Speaker 1: course of the last few years when somebody asks you,

1482
01:17:08,640 --> 01:17:13,240
Speaker 1: why is this thing seemingly unmatch almost anywhere else in

1483
01:17:13,280 --> 01:17:16,519
Speaker 1: college football? If I said, what makes the Monon bell

1484
01:17:16,640 --> 01:17:18,559
Speaker 1: so great, what's your answer to that?

1485
01:17:20,840 --> 01:17:24,880
Speaker 6: Well, I think there's a genuine and authentic passion to

1486
01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:33,679
Speaker 6: uphold your own culture and prevent the other side from

1487
01:17:34,200 --> 01:17:37,360
Speaker 6: imposing on that. So it's more than just this trophy,

1488
01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:42,479
Speaker 6: this bell that I think the people involved in a

1489
01:17:42,560 --> 01:17:47,759
Speaker 6: rivalry truly believe that this is a lifestyle and choices

1490
01:17:47,800 --> 01:17:51,120
Speaker 6: were made to pick one school over the other because generally,

1491
01:17:51,880 --> 01:17:54,320
Speaker 6: if you're recruited by one school, you're recruited by the other.

1492
01:17:54,400 --> 01:17:58,840
Speaker 6: So you chose, and so for everyone, they do, well,

1493
01:17:58,880 --> 01:18:02,519
Speaker 6: I made this choice, and they made their own choice. Well,

1494
01:18:02,640 --> 01:18:06,599
Speaker 6: guess what. We're going to defend the traditions. We're going

1495
01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:08,960
Speaker 6: to defend the choices we made. We're going to defend

1496
01:18:09,040 --> 01:18:14,080
Speaker 6: our lifestyle. And they also are smart enough to understand

1497
01:18:14,120 --> 01:18:18,559
Speaker 6: this is about this season, but it shapes this entire

1498
01:18:18,600 --> 01:18:21,360
Speaker 6: school year. We win this game or not, and that

1499
01:18:21,479 --> 01:18:25,280
Speaker 6: in turn shapes your entire four year experience. But then

1500
01:18:25,320 --> 01:18:29,080
Speaker 6: they also know at these schools, you know, while that

1501
01:18:29,200 --> 01:18:32,600
Speaker 6: say isn't four years, it's four life. And once you

1502
01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:38,200
Speaker 6: sign up for this thing, the alumni, I mean, it's

1503
01:18:38,320 --> 01:18:40,280
Speaker 6: kind of in your blood like it is mine. And

1504
01:18:40,360 --> 01:18:44,000
Speaker 6: so you were fighting not only just to win on

1505
01:18:44,080 --> 01:18:47,320
Speaker 6: that Saturday, like if you zoom out a little bit,

1506
01:18:47,880 --> 01:18:50,639
Speaker 6: you're fighting for relevance over the course of your entire

1507
01:18:51,040 --> 01:18:54,240
Speaker 6: adult alumni life to be able to say, oh, yeah,

1508
01:18:54,640 --> 01:18:57,120
Speaker 6: hey we were four and zero in abo game, or

1509
01:18:57,120 --> 01:18:58,800
Speaker 6: we were three and one in a bow game, or

1510
01:18:58,840 --> 01:19:01,280
Speaker 6: we were two and two. Sure's he don't want to

1511
01:19:01,280 --> 01:19:04,519
Speaker 6: say you're one and three or on four right, understood John,

1512
01:19:05,479 --> 01:19:07,200
Speaker 6: So nobody wants.

1513
01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:09,160
Speaker 1: That understood, my friend, I know you're busy. I'll let

1514
01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:11,240
Speaker 1: you go. I'll see you Saturday morning. Good luck on

1515
01:19:11,280 --> 01:19:12,160
Speaker 1: Saturday afternoon.

1516
01:19:12,240 --> 01:19:15,120
Speaker 6: Thanks for everything you do for football in our state.

1517
01:19:15,360 --> 01:19:17,280
Speaker 1: You got it, my friend, be good. Jay Gilbert again

1518
01:19:17,320 --> 01:19:20,120
Speaker 1: he is the football coach at Wabash College. Again he

1519
01:19:20,160 --> 01:19:23,480
Speaker 1: appears on the Java House Peel and poor guest line.

1520
01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:28,640
Speaker 1: And again this is like a presidential debate. DePauw fans went, hey,

1521
01:19:28,640 --> 01:19:31,240
Speaker 1: wait a minute, where is our guy? Give it about

1522
01:19:31,240 --> 01:19:33,640
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes, we'll have your guy, Brett Deeds to be

1523
01:19:33,680 --> 01:19:37,320
Speaker 1: standing by joining us at two o'clock. In between, we

1524
01:19:37,360 --> 01:19:39,680
Speaker 1: can shout about whatever you want to talk about. If

1525
01:19:39,680 --> 01:19:41,880
Speaker 1: it's the Colts going to the bye week, great, it's

1526
01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:45,040
Speaker 1: the Indiana Hoosiers either in football or basketball, great, If

1527
01:19:45,080 --> 01:19:48,519
Speaker 1: it's Purdue having a big college basketball game down at

1528
01:19:48,520 --> 01:19:51,800
Speaker 1: Coleman Coliseum in Tuscaloosa, we can certainly talk about that

1529
01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:54,559
Speaker 1: as well. Or if it's about this here Mo non

1530
01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:58,040
Speaker 1: Bell classic, I think I'm knowledge of to have that

1531
01:19:58,080 --> 01:20:01,200
Speaker 1: conversation with the two phone lines, this open text line open,

1532
01:20:01,320 --> 01:20:05,000
Speaker 1: tweaked lines open. I guess three, one, seven, two, three, nine, ten,

1533
01:20:05,080 --> 01:20:07,840
Speaker 1: seventy at Greg raikesdraw on Twitter back with more in

01:20:15,600 --> 01:20:17,479
Speaker 1: know they would not be a one hit wonder Frankly,

1537
01:20:17,520 --> 01:20:19,320
Speaker 1: they are more than that because they were a very

1538
01:20:19,320 --> 01:20:22,040
Speaker 1: big deal in Europe and then had a modicum of

1539
01:20:22,080 --> 01:20:27,479
Speaker 1: success mid eighties. This with the movie I'm a sounding

1540
01:20:27,479 --> 01:20:30,160
Speaker 1: like Jake is quote in eighties movies here or John Frankly,

1541
01:20:30,600 --> 01:20:34,519
Speaker 1: but there was actually a different Falco song I wanted

1542
01:20:34,600 --> 01:20:38,120
Speaker 1: to dial up. So I appreciate you playing this, Eddie,

1543
01:20:38,160 --> 01:20:41,640
Speaker 1: if you don't mind look up, I'm giving away the

1544
01:20:41,720 --> 01:20:44,320
Speaker 1: lead by telling you what song to look up. Vienna

1545
01:20:44,439 --> 01:20:47,840
Speaker 1: Calling is the song to play from Falco because the

1546
01:20:47,920 --> 01:20:51,559
Speaker 1: reason we are doing this is because that is where

1547
01:20:51,640 --> 01:20:54,799
Speaker 1: Jake Query is. You know, I thought about asking Eddie

1548
01:20:55,160 --> 01:20:58,679
Speaker 1: where Jake was going. I thought about asking Jake where

1549
01:20:58,720 --> 01:21:00,880
Speaker 1: Jake was going. But all that I have to do

1550
01:21:01,000 --> 01:21:04,240
Speaker 1: is go to Shannon's Facebook feed and then I know

1551
01:21:04,680 --> 01:21:08,040
Speaker 1: exactly where they are. And you know, I got to say,

1552
01:21:08,240 --> 01:21:12,160
Speaker 1: as someone that technically experienced Europe for the first time,

1553
01:21:12,200 --> 01:21:16,559
Speaker 1: because where I went is considered European this summer, but

1554
01:21:16,640 --> 01:21:18,400
Speaker 1: it's really in the middle of the Arctic Ocean. It's

1555
01:21:18,439 --> 01:21:21,840
Speaker 1: closer to Greenland than as anything else. I did Iceland,

1556
01:21:22,680 --> 01:21:25,000
Speaker 1: which again is more European than North American.

1557
01:21:25,120 --> 01:21:25,559
Speaker 2: How was that?

1558
01:21:25,600 --> 01:21:28,960
Speaker 1: By the way, it was wonderful. Raykievick still pops up

1559
01:21:28,960 --> 01:21:30,800
Speaker 1: when I go to weather dot com. Raykievic is the

1560
01:21:30,800 --> 01:21:33,719
Speaker 1: first thing. There's twenty five overnight in Raykievic. By the way,

1561
01:21:34,479 --> 01:21:39,000
Speaker 1: I have never been to continental Europe. Frankly, Iceland is

1562
01:21:39,040 --> 01:21:41,679
Speaker 1: the furthest away from North America I've ever been. I've

1563
01:21:41,680 --> 01:21:44,120
Speaker 1: now been to Iceland. I've been to Canada. I have

1564
01:21:44,200 --> 01:21:46,720
Speaker 1: been to Bermuda, I have been to Mexico. I have

1565
01:21:46,800 --> 01:21:48,960
Speaker 1: been to Puerto Rico, into the US Virgin Islands. So

1566
01:21:49,040 --> 01:21:51,679
Speaker 1: I've been more places than most. And because of my job,

1567
01:21:52,240 --> 01:21:55,720
Speaker 1: I actually have been I think to forty two of

1568
01:21:55,760 --> 01:21:58,880
Speaker 1: the fifty states at this point, and I have checked

1569
01:21:58,920 --> 01:22:02,120
Speaker 1: off a last and Hawaii. Thank you, I U p

1570
01:22:02,280 --> 01:22:05,680
Speaker 1: Ui Jaguars now IU Indy Jaguars for traveling me on

1571
01:22:05,680 --> 01:22:08,920
Speaker 1: the radio for nine years and get to do experience. Fairbanks,

1572
01:22:08,920 --> 01:22:11,760
Speaker 1: Alaska did not have as good of you as the

1573
01:22:11,800 --> 01:22:14,160
Speaker 1: Northern lights as we had in Indianapolis a couple of

1574
01:22:14,280 --> 01:22:16,639
Speaker 1: nights ago. But I got a story behind that. Would

1575
01:22:16,680 --> 01:22:19,679
Speaker 1: you like me to tell my northern lights or lack

1576
01:22:19,720 --> 01:22:20,240
Speaker 1: THEIROP story?

1577
01:22:20,320 --> 01:22:21,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go for it, all right.

1578
01:22:21,520 --> 01:22:24,519
Speaker 1: So two thousand and seven, two thousand and eight, the

1579
01:22:24,560 --> 01:22:26,720
Speaker 1: I U p U s it's like my muscle member,

1580
01:22:26,760 --> 01:22:28,799
Speaker 1: I say au INDI now I U p Ui Jaguars

1581
01:22:28,800 --> 01:22:33,720
Speaker 1: played and the final Top of the World Classic in Fairbanks, Alaska.

1582
01:22:34,520 --> 01:22:37,880
Speaker 1: It was the week before Thanksgiving. We got there and

1583
01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:39,720
Speaker 1: they said, oh, we got good news bad news for you.

1584
01:22:39,840 --> 01:22:42,280
Speaker 1: What's what's the good news. Good news is it's gonna

1585
01:22:42,280 --> 01:22:45,760
Speaker 1: be above zero the entire time. Well, that's great. What's

1586
01:22:45,800 --> 01:22:48,240
Speaker 1: the bad news? Well, the bad news is is that

1587
01:22:48,280 --> 01:22:49,760
Speaker 1: you're not gonna be able to see the northern lights

1588
01:22:49,760 --> 01:22:52,160
Speaker 1: while you're here. Well that kind of stinks. Why is

1589
01:22:52,160 --> 01:22:54,280
Speaker 1: that the case? Well, it's gonna be cloudy for the

1590
01:22:54,320 --> 01:22:58,120
Speaker 1: four or five days you were here. We're like, oh, okay,

1591
01:22:59,439 --> 01:23:03,040
Speaker 1: what would the temperature have been if it would not

1592
01:23:03,160 --> 01:23:06,360
Speaker 1: have been cloudy and we could have seen the Northern lights?

1593
01:23:06,600 --> 01:23:09,320
Speaker 1: And the response was probably about twenty or thirty below

1594
01:23:10,200 --> 01:23:13,320
Speaker 1: And after about a momentary pause, and I will not

1595
01:23:13,479 --> 01:23:16,679
Speaker 1: make Eddie die for the dump button. I will self

1596
01:23:16,800 --> 01:23:20,880
Speaker 1: edit here blank. The northern lights was pretty much the

1597
01:23:20,920 --> 01:23:26,400
Speaker 1: consensus because it was above zero while we were in Fairbanks. Now,

1598
01:23:26,520 --> 01:23:28,439
Speaker 1: I could not see them when I was in Iceland

1599
01:23:28,560 --> 01:23:33,479
Speaker 1: either because the sun would set, but it never truly

1600
01:23:33,560 --> 01:23:36,080
Speaker 1: got dark the time of year that I was there.

1601
01:23:36,439 --> 01:23:41,599
Speaker 1: So we were there from July nineteenth through July twenty sixth,

1602
01:23:42,080 --> 01:23:46,439
Speaker 1: and technically we had about twenty hours of daylight where

1603
01:23:46,479 --> 01:23:48,920
Speaker 1: the sun was up the entire time, and even when

1604
01:23:48,920 --> 01:23:52,200
Speaker 1: it dipped below the horizon, it was pretty much like

1605
01:23:52,560 --> 01:23:56,439
Speaker 1: dusk the entire time. And if you think that effects

1606
01:23:56,479 --> 01:23:59,000
Speaker 1: you're sleeping, apparently doesn't have alcohol you can drink where

1607
01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:02,040
Speaker 1: that's no longer problem or a consideration. Have you pulled

1608
01:24:02,120 --> 01:24:02,599
Speaker 1: up being.

1609
01:24:02,439 --> 01:24:04,559
Speaker 2: A calling yet by the yeah, I'll bounce back with

1610
01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:05,400
Speaker 2: that later.

1611
01:24:05,280 --> 01:24:07,639
Speaker 1: Later in the show. All right, consider that a really

1612
01:24:07,720 --> 01:24:11,360
Speaker 1: poorly done radio tease talking about Jake's vacation. So I

1613
01:24:11,520 --> 01:24:14,840
Speaker 1: brought that up basically just to say I think Vienna

1614
01:24:14,880 --> 01:24:17,479
Speaker 1: would be a wonderful place to go, and I love

1615
01:24:17,560 --> 01:24:21,040
Speaker 1: the fact that it's it's it's Europe, but it's someplace different,

1616
01:24:21,400 --> 01:24:24,280
Speaker 1: like Jake had any say so in the matter whatsoever.

1617
01:24:24,880 --> 01:24:26,880
Speaker 1: You know, Jake's pretty independent traveler what it does with

1618
01:24:26,880 --> 01:24:29,759
Speaker 1: the IndyCar series. And literally, when I am in Iceland,

1619
01:24:30,479 --> 01:24:34,000
Speaker 1: I actually posted a picture of a graveyard as a

1620
01:24:34,080 --> 01:24:37,240
Speaker 1: nod to Jake. I said, I can't read icelandic I

1621
01:24:37,280 --> 01:24:40,240
Speaker 1: have no idea if anybody famous is buried here, but

1622
01:24:40,320 --> 01:24:42,400
Speaker 1: this feels like something Jake would do on a vacation.

1623
01:24:42,479 --> 01:24:44,840
Speaker 1: I just took a picture of a graveyard and posted

1624
01:24:44,920 --> 01:24:47,760
Speaker 1: on Facebook and tagged him and said, here you go, Jake,

1625
01:24:48,080 --> 01:24:52,000
Speaker 1: find somebody famous that is entombed in easter furder in

1626
01:24:52,080 --> 01:24:55,599
Speaker 1: northwestern Iceland. Good luck with that? Or was it say

1627
01:24:55,640 --> 01:24:57,759
Speaker 1: to though Sada's Feuder was the other Yeah, Eastern Fundial

1628
01:24:57,880 --> 01:25:00,599
Speaker 1: was the place. That's that we did that aut next

1629
01:25:00,680 --> 01:25:03,760
Speaker 1: segment of the show, next hour of the show, we're

1630
01:25:03,760 --> 01:25:06,840
Speaker 1: going to talk about two football programs. One that has

1631
01:25:06,920 --> 01:25:12,160
Speaker 1: been tremendously successful, well historically, but especially in the time

1632
01:25:12,160 --> 01:25:13,840
Speaker 1: that this gentleman has been the coach. It may be

1633
01:25:13,880 --> 01:25:16,760
Speaker 1: Brett Deets at DePaul. His team will not win the

1634
01:25:16,760 --> 01:25:20,560
Speaker 1: North Coast Athletic Conference for a fifth consecutive year. However,

1635
01:25:21,280 --> 01:25:24,879
Speaker 1: when they went on Saturday, they should make the Division

1636
01:25:24,920 --> 01:25:30,080
Speaker 1: three playoffs. For a fifth consecutive year, and while success

1637
01:25:30,120 --> 01:25:33,559
Speaker 1: maybe a little bit more new found in Bloomington, Haylan

1638
01:25:33,680 --> 01:25:35,640
Speaker 1: Black has been a big part of it. He is

1639
01:25:35,680 --> 01:25:38,559
Speaker 1: one of the guys that originally made the jump with

1640
01:25:38,680 --> 01:25:42,240
Speaker 1: Kurt Signetti from James Madison. He will join us on

1641
01:25:42,280 --> 01:25:46,719
Speaker 1: the program at approximately two thirty and as promised, Falco

1642
01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:49,240
Speaker 1: and Vienna calling at some point in time as well.

1643
01:25:49,479 --> 01:25:52,160
Speaker 1: Back for the final hour of my substitute teaching shift

1644
01:25:52,200 --> 01:25:54,320
Speaker 1: for the day listening on ninety three to five and

1645
01:25:54,320 --> 01:25:57,720
Speaker 1: one oh seven to five the fan. You know, I

1646
01:25:57,840 --> 01:26:02,760
Speaker 1: have used the word Steward or Steward's ship with the

1647
01:26:02,880 --> 01:26:07,960
Speaker 1: role that I have with the Monon Bell Classic. I'm

1648
01:26:07,960 --> 01:26:10,160
Speaker 1: not a wa bashal amount of to Paulum, but it

1649
01:26:10,280 --> 01:26:13,160
Speaker 1: is my job to make sure the presentation of the

1650
01:26:13,160 --> 01:26:15,519
Speaker 1: broadcast is up to the standards of those that are

1651
01:26:15,560 --> 01:26:18,800
Speaker 1: so passionate for this game and have lived this either

1652
01:26:18,840 --> 01:26:22,360
Speaker 1: for a year or frankly for generation. I'll try to

1653
01:26:22,479 --> 01:26:27,040
Speaker 1: another fancy word that would that would raise eyebrows at

1654
01:26:27,040 --> 01:26:30,720
Speaker 1: both to Paul and Wabash on the on Budsman, I'm

1655
01:26:30,720 --> 01:26:33,080
Speaker 1: trying to make sure that I give the exact same

1656
01:26:33,120 --> 01:26:37,080
Speaker 1: amount of time to Brett deets in this conversation, as

1657
01:26:37,120 --> 01:26:41,280
Speaker 1: I did to Jake Gilbert in the previous conversation. Getting

1658
01:26:41,280 --> 01:26:44,240
Speaker 1: the ball up begin the second half, representing the Depaud

1659
01:26:44,280 --> 01:26:46,479
Speaker 1: Tigers their head coach, and Brett Deetch joins us. Now,

1660
01:26:46,680 --> 01:26:49,479
Speaker 1: good afternoon, my friend. How are you great?

1661
01:26:49,520 --> 01:26:50,080
Speaker 6: How we doing?

1662
01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:53,880
Speaker 1: I'm good? How is Bell Week? When it's not at

1663
01:26:53,960 --> 01:26:55,840
Speaker 1: your place as it was a season ago.

1664
01:26:56,800 --> 01:26:59,400
Speaker 9: It's just a little bit quieter around here without a

1665
01:26:59,400 --> 01:27:01,559
Speaker 9: lot of bleacher going up and things like that. But

1666
01:27:01,600 --> 01:27:04,599
Speaker 9: there's still a healthy buzz on campus, that's for sure.

1667
01:27:04,760 --> 01:27:07,320
Speaker 1: Something that is rarely done during Bell Week is to

1668
01:27:07,439 --> 01:27:10,080
Speaker 1: divert attention away from Bell Week, but I think it's

1669
01:27:10,200 --> 01:27:12,880
Speaker 1: important to bring up here. Last time you and I

1670
01:27:12,920 --> 01:27:15,040
Speaker 1: saw each other those before the Oberlin game. But back

1671
01:27:15,040 --> 01:27:17,599
Speaker 1: in October the fourth, and a couple of days later,

1672
01:27:18,360 --> 01:27:21,759
Speaker 1: you guys are announcing a major stadium change. Blackstock Stadium

1673
01:27:21,760 --> 01:27:25,200
Speaker 1: has been there in some form or fashion since nineteen

1674
01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:29,000
Speaker 1: forty one. It will soon be coming down at some

1675
01:27:29,080 --> 01:27:32,400
Speaker 1: point in time in twenty twenty six, if you will.

1676
01:27:32,800 --> 01:27:34,960
Speaker 1: What will a new facility look like at De Paul

1677
01:27:35,040 --> 01:27:36,920
Speaker 1: University a couple of years from now?

1678
01:27:37,880 --> 01:27:40,800
Speaker 9: Oh man, we're really excited about this. You know, just

1679
01:27:40,840 --> 01:27:44,479
Speaker 9: an unbelievable amount of money to give a gift to

1680
01:27:44,600 --> 01:27:47,559
Speaker 9: not just you know, upgrade to Paul football, but all

1681
01:27:47,560 --> 01:27:49,960
Speaker 9: of the Paul athletics. And so yeah, it's going to

1682
01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:53,679
Speaker 9: replace Blackstock Stadium where it is now, so that entire

1683
01:27:53,760 --> 01:27:57,280
Speaker 9: building will come down and we'll resurrect something that is

1684
01:27:57,360 --> 01:28:01,120
Speaker 9: much larger and frankly, you know, it's going to be

1685
01:28:01,200 --> 01:28:05,720
Speaker 9: much more student athlete friendly. And so the donor and

1686
01:28:06,120 --> 01:28:09,120
Speaker 9: us in this project is want to direct all fast

1687
01:28:09,120 --> 01:28:12,120
Speaker 9: it's towards the student athlete. So you know, we're going

1688
01:28:12,200 --> 01:28:16,840
Speaker 9: to have new locker rooms for baseball, softball, football, track

1689
01:28:16,880 --> 01:28:19,760
Speaker 9: and field. We're going to redo the training room, make

1690
01:28:19,760 --> 01:28:22,679
Speaker 9: it up to Division one standards as far as what's

1691
01:28:22,680 --> 01:28:26,280
Speaker 9: in there, the equipment, the space, you know, and that'll

1692
01:28:26,320 --> 01:28:29,120
Speaker 9: be you know, not just one for football and track,

1693
01:28:29,160 --> 01:28:31,760
Speaker 9: but it'll be for all of DePaul athletics. We're going

1694
01:28:31,800 --> 01:28:34,240
Speaker 9: to put a student athlete weight room in there. There's

1695
01:28:34,240 --> 01:28:36,320
Speaker 9: gonna be plenty of study spaces in there and social

1696
01:28:36,400 --> 01:28:37,719
Speaker 9: spaces in there for the players.

1697
01:28:37,760 --> 01:28:39,720
Speaker 5: And so it's not just gonna be a stadium. It's

1698
01:28:39,720 --> 01:28:40,040
Speaker 5: going to be a.

1699
01:28:40,040 --> 01:28:42,280
Speaker 9: Sports performance center. So it's going to be something that

1700
01:28:43,200 --> 01:28:45,200
Speaker 9: is going to benefit all the DePaul student athletes and

1701
01:28:45,240 --> 01:28:47,760
Speaker 9: it's going to be something truly special. And Greg's I

1702
01:28:47,760 --> 01:28:49,599
Speaker 9: know you've spent some time on our campus. When we

1703
01:28:49,680 --> 01:28:52,040
Speaker 9: do a building, when we redo something here at DePaul,

1704
01:28:52,640 --> 01:28:54,360
Speaker 9: we don't just do it halfway. We do it all

1705
01:28:54,400 --> 01:28:57,120
Speaker 9: the way. So if you look at our new library,

1706
01:28:57,240 --> 01:29:00,519
Speaker 9: I mean it's awesome, right, we did the dining hall

1707
01:29:00,520 --> 01:29:03,640
Speaker 9: about nine years ago, that's tremendous. If we're going to

1708
01:29:03,720 --> 01:29:05,040
Speaker 9: do something, we're going to do it all the way,

1709
01:29:05,120 --> 01:29:06,920
Speaker 9: and we're going to do it here at De Paul

1710
01:29:07,760 --> 01:29:10,519
Speaker 9: and really kind of give the outdoor sports it to

1711
01:29:10,600 --> 01:29:14,320
Speaker 9: Paul a really big facelift. And so we're incredibly grateful

1712
01:29:14,320 --> 01:29:14,800
Speaker 9: for the gift.

1713
01:29:14,960 --> 01:29:17,320
Speaker 1: And again, the plan is is that you will have

1714
01:29:17,680 --> 01:29:20,679
Speaker 1: temporary stands, temporary press box, et cetera for the next

1715
01:29:20,680 --> 01:29:24,000
Speaker 1: couple of years. But the plan is that you're not

1716
01:29:24,120 --> 01:29:26,280
Speaker 1: going to play the bell game on campus, and that's

1717
01:29:26,360 --> 01:29:29,400
Speaker 1: going to be at a site TBD at this time

1718
01:29:29,400 --> 01:29:30,599
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty six.

1719
01:29:30,680 --> 01:29:32,200
Speaker 2: Correct, That is.

1720
01:29:32,120 --> 01:29:34,599
Speaker 9: Something I don't even know that I am focusing on

1721
01:29:34,640 --> 01:29:37,320
Speaker 9: this season enough. And when this season's over, we'll we'll

1722
01:29:38,000 --> 01:29:40,439
Speaker 9: turn the page and get get to all that other stuff.

1723
01:29:40,479 --> 01:29:42,320
Speaker 1: All right, so we'll get the focus back to the

1724
01:29:42,320 --> 01:29:46,960
Speaker 1: next forty eight hours for you. Obviously, I should say,

1725
01:29:46,960 --> 01:29:49,559
Speaker 1: obviously I know the background. Other other people don't. Bratt

1726
01:29:49,560 --> 01:29:51,880
Speaker 1: was a fantastic player at Hanover College, good enough to

1727
01:29:51,880 --> 01:29:54,880
Speaker 1: play professionally in Europe, good enough to play in an ArenaBowl.

1728
01:29:55,200 --> 01:29:58,000
Speaker 1: Frankly in his playing days as well. You have now

1729
01:29:58,040 --> 01:30:00,920
Speaker 1: been on the depause staff in some four more fashion

1730
01:30:01,400 --> 01:30:05,639
Speaker 1: for the last fifteen years. When did the difference of

1731
01:30:05,680 --> 01:30:10,120
Speaker 1: this game compared to any other game? Really kind of

1732
01:30:10,160 --> 01:30:12,479
Speaker 1: smacky in the chest as you were experiencing this for

1733
01:30:12,520 --> 01:30:13,160
Speaker 1: the first time.

1734
01:30:13,880 --> 01:30:16,200
Speaker 9: I think it's the very first one, you know, when

1735
01:30:16,280 --> 01:30:18,479
Speaker 9: you come running in and you know, I was just

1736
01:30:18,560 --> 01:30:20,439
Speaker 9: a part time receiver coach at the time, back in

1737
01:30:20,479 --> 01:30:23,200
Speaker 9: twenty ten, and you know that game happened to be

1738
01:30:23,280 --> 01:30:25,360
Speaker 9: up at Wabash and just to drive in on the

1739
01:30:25,360 --> 01:30:28,240
Speaker 9: bus to see the amount of people, both the Pall

1740
01:30:28,320 --> 01:30:31,720
Speaker 9: fans and Wabash fans, and just the amount of shenanigans

1741
01:30:31,760 --> 01:30:34,240
Speaker 9: around the game leading up to the game, and obviously

1742
01:30:34,280 --> 01:30:37,479
Speaker 9: the stuff, the pregame stuff. And you know, I think

1743
01:30:37,520 --> 01:30:39,439
Speaker 9: it's different when you when you play at IU and

1744
01:30:39,439 --> 01:30:41,200
Speaker 9: then you go to the Michigan Big House. Yes, that's

1745
01:30:41,720 --> 01:30:44,360
Speaker 9: some more people in the Big House, but they're used

1746
01:30:44,400 --> 01:30:46,360
Speaker 9: to playing in front of big crowds, and so for us,

1747
01:30:46,400 --> 01:30:47,720
Speaker 9: you know, we're used to playing in front of two

1748
01:30:47,800 --> 01:30:49,360
Speaker 9: or three thousand people, and all of a sudden there's

1749
01:30:49,400 --> 01:30:52,360
Speaker 9: ten thousand people, or there's maybe fifteen thousand people on campus.

1750
01:30:53,200 --> 01:30:55,799
Speaker 9: It is like two to three time amount of people

1751
01:30:55,840 --> 01:30:58,280
Speaker 9: that are around that. And so a lot of people

1752
01:30:58,320 --> 01:31:00,479
Speaker 9: ask like, well, who are these extra people that come

1753
01:31:00,479 --> 01:31:01,160
Speaker 9: to this stuff?

1754
01:31:01,680 --> 01:31:01,880
Speaker 5: Right?

1755
01:31:01,960 --> 01:31:04,719
Speaker 9: And it's all alumni, right, it's alumni, it's friends, it's family,

1756
01:31:04,720 --> 01:31:06,400
Speaker 9: it's people that have had this game on their bucket

1757
01:31:06,400 --> 01:31:08,760
Speaker 9: lists that have lived in me for a long time

1758
01:31:08,800 --> 01:31:11,000
Speaker 9: and had to find a way to get in. Here's

1759
01:31:11,000 --> 01:31:13,280
Speaker 9: the problem, it's really hard to get in. Yes, the

1760
01:31:13,360 --> 01:31:17,000
Speaker 9: last two seasons both are our game at home last

1761
01:31:17,080 --> 01:31:20,000
Speaker 9: year and this game. You know, on the DePaul side,

1762
01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:23,360
Speaker 9: we've sold out in under forty minutes in both games,

1763
01:31:23,439 --> 01:31:26,920
Speaker 9: and so we had an All American tight end who

1764
01:31:27,120 --> 01:31:31,000
Speaker 9: gave quickly who you remember so DePaul people, you know,

1765
01:31:31,040 --> 01:31:33,760
Speaker 9: he's an All American tight end for us. Last year,

1766
01:31:33,840 --> 01:31:37,320
Speaker 9: he got into que I think maybe fifteen minutes before

1767
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:39,880
Speaker 9: the thing opened, and then he never got out of queue,

1768
01:31:39,880 --> 01:31:40,880
Speaker 9: so he never got a ticket.

1769
01:31:40,960 --> 01:31:42,800
Speaker 5: So even if you signed.

1770
01:31:42,520 --> 01:31:44,400
Speaker 9: You know, you logged on when you're supposed to log on,

1771
01:31:44,479 --> 01:31:47,160
Speaker 9: not everybody ended up getting a ticket. So that's how

1772
01:31:47,240 --> 01:31:50,439
Speaker 9: much this this you know, game means to DePaul people.

1773
01:31:51,560 --> 01:31:53,040
Speaker 9: You know, just because you played in that doesn't mean

1774
01:31:53,080 --> 01:31:54,360
Speaker 9: you want to get away from it. It means you

1775
01:31:54,400 --> 01:31:57,720
Speaker 9: want to come back even more so. It is is

1776
01:31:57,720 --> 01:32:00,720
Speaker 9: a pretty special rivalry that you know, and everybody's got

1777
01:32:00,760 --> 01:32:03,000
Speaker 9: rivalry games, but there's just something about this game.

1778
01:32:04,160 --> 01:32:04,360
Speaker 5: You know.

1779
01:32:04,400 --> 01:32:06,920
Speaker 9: Bill Lynch is samous for saying, you know, he's played

1780
01:32:06,920 --> 01:32:08,080
Speaker 9: and I you Purdue.

1781
01:32:08,280 --> 01:32:10,200
Speaker 5: A old oaken bucket game, and he's like, you know,

1782
01:32:10,320 --> 01:32:10,919
Speaker 5: that doesn't.

1783
01:32:10,720 --> 01:32:12,400
Speaker 9: Hold a candle to this, right, And I have I

1784
01:32:12,439 --> 01:32:16,720
Speaker 9: have friends that coach another division one, you know, contests

1785
01:32:16,720 --> 01:32:18,920
Speaker 9: that have been involved in this game one way or another,

1786
01:32:19,040 --> 01:32:21,760
Speaker 9: and you know, playing at Auburn or playing you know,

1787
01:32:21,800 --> 01:32:24,320
Speaker 9: at Alabama, like it just doesn't compare to what this

1788
01:32:24,439 --> 01:32:26,200
Speaker 9: game means to both programs.

1789
01:32:26,600 --> 01:32:29,080
Speaker 1: You know, I've done the social media thing, having been

1790
01:32:29,120 --> 01:32:30,960
Speaker 1: on the call the last four years and say hey,

1791
01:32:31,160 --> 01:32:33,400
Speaker 1: send us a picture of your watch party. Where are

1792
01:32:33,400 --> 01:32:35,320
Speaker 1: you watching the game from where you fall in the action.

1793
01:32:35,800 --> 01:32:37,640
Speaker 1: I remember one year I got a photo from a

1794
01:32:37,680 --> 01:32:40,479
Speaker 1: guy that was doing game hunting in South Africa and

1795
01:32:40,520 --> 01:32:42,800
Speaker 1: he was watching the game on his phone. So yeah,

1796
01:32:42,960 --> 01:32:45,720
Speaker 1: I think they got somebody interact with me from Indonesia

1797
01:32:45,760 --> 01:32:49,200
Speaker 1: three or four years ago watching this game. And so yeah,

1798
01:32:49,240 --> 01:32:52,120
Speaker 1: that that that that resonates with me as well. It's

1799
01:32:52,200 --> 01:32:55,479
Speaker 1: unique in terms of you coaching against Jake Gilbert because

1800
01:32:55,479 --> 01:32:58,479
Speaker 1: obviously you've worked with Jake as the head coach at

1801
01:32:58,520 --> 01:33:02,160
Speaker 1: Westfield in terms of his roll with the IFCA recruiting

1802
01:33:02,240 --> 01:33:05,160
Speaker 1: kids from Westfield historically to come to De Paul. And

1803
01:33:05,200 --> 01:33:06,920
Speaker 1: now he's on the opposite side line of you. And

1804
01:33:06,960 --> 01:33:09,120
Speaker 1: again he was last year assistant coach, but now as

1805
01:33:09,160 --> 01:33:12,320
Speaker 1: the head coach, is your thoughts about the school and

1806
01:33:12,360 --> 01:33:14,160
Speaker 1: the coach you'd be going up against a couple of

1807
01:33:14,200 --> 01:33:14,800
Speaker 1: days from now.

1808
01:33:15,680 --> 01:33:17,920
Speaker 9: Yeah, And I always got a enough close, you know,

1809
01:33:18,160 --> 01:33:21,639
Speaker 9: view of Jake because you know, he was a big

1810
01:33:21,680 --> 01:33:24,439
Speaker 9: Bishop Dellahan guy, you know, dating back to his Dick

1811
01:33:24,520 --> 01:33:26,960
Speaker 9: Delahan days and you know, and Bill Lynch ended up

1812
01:33:27,000 --> 01:33:30,400
Speaker 9: taking that camp over and so Jake always brought their

1813
01:33:30,840 --> 01:33:31,799
Speaker 9: team to team.

1814
01:33:31,600 --> 01:33:33,680
Speaker 5: Camp at Bishop Dellahan Camp and we hosted it right

1815
01:33:33,720 --> 01:33:35,800
Speaker 5: here at the Paul. So I got to know.

1816
01:33:35,720 --> 01:33:37,519
Speaker 9: A Jake a lot, you know, during those three or

1817
01:33:37,560 --> 01:33:39,760
Speaker 9: four days at camp, you know. So I feel like

1818
01:33:39,800 --> 01:33:42,040
Speaker 9: I know him better than a lot of other high

1819
01:33:42,040 --> 01:33:43,760
Speaker 9: school coaches just because of how much time I spent

1820
01:33:43,800 --> 01:33:45,800
Speaker 9: with him, you know, on our campus through the team

1821
01:33:45,840 --> 01:33:48,840
Speaker 9: camp type stuff. So but yeah, he's a great coach,

1822
01:33:49,320 --> 01:33:51,479
Speaker 9: a great person, and and we're going to have a

1823
01:33:51,479 --> 01:33:53,280
Speaker 9: battle on Saturday, that's for sure, all right.

1824
01:33:53,320 --> 01:33:56,160
Speaker 1: If there are two last names that I will say

1825
01:33:56,200 --> 01:33:58,720
Speaker 1: the most, I'll take these one at a time. There's

1826
01:33:58,720 --> 01:34:00,960
Speaker 1: a couple of sets of brothers that we will talk

1827
01:34:01,000 --> 01:34:03,920
Speaker 1: about during the course of the broadcast, and one of

1828
01:34:03,920 --> 01:34:07,240
Speaker 1: those is Ballentine. There is Robbie the receiver. There is

1829
01:34:07,240 --> 01:34:10,360
Speaker 1: is Scott the quarterback. For the young man that is

1830
01:34:10,360 --> 01:34:14,360
Speaker 1: the receiver. We can talk about the the jaw dropping

1831
01:34:14,479 --> 01:34:17,559
Speaker 1: numbers he has put up for his career for this season,

1832
01:34:18,040 --> 01:34:20,680
Speaker 1: but how about this one. He is the only Division

1833
01:34:20,840 --> 01:34:24,840
Speaker 1: three player that is up for the Campbell Award, which

1834
01:34:24,920 --> 01:34:29,360
Speaker 1: is basically the equivalent of the academic Heisman. Tell me

1835
01:34:29,360 --> 01:34:31,759
Speaker 1: about this young man that is playing in his final

1836
01:34:31,800 --> 01:34:33,160
Speaker 1: Bell game for you on Saturday.

1837
01:34:34,600 --> 01:34:36,479
Speaker 9: I mean Robbie's special I mean he's just one of

1838
01:34:36,479 --> 01:34:39,200
Speaker 9: those guys that you know, you want your kids to

1839
01:34:39,280 --> 01:34:42,559
Speaker 9: aspire to be. Right, He's a guy that truly gets

1840
01:34:42,600 --> 01:34:43,120
Speaker 9: it done.

1841
01:34:43,000 --> 01:34:44,160
Speaker 5: On the field and off the field.

1842
01:34:44,680 --> 01:34:46,639
Speaker 9: And a lot of people do it to a certain degree,

1843
01:34:46,680 --> 01:34:48,639
Speaker 9: you know, guys did good grades, this, that and the other,

1844
01:34:48,720 --> 01:34:51,080
Speaker 9: but to the level that he gets it. I mean,

1845
01:34:51,160 --> 01:34:53,880
Speaker 9: he's got the highest GPA on our team. He's also

1846
01:34:53,960 --> 01:34:56,479
Speaker 9: a best football player, right, So to get the best

1847
01:34:56,520 --> 01:34:58,000
Speaker 9: out of the best out of you know, a really

1848
01:34:58,000 --> 01:34:59,960
Speaker 9: good school like DePaul, and as good as the football

1849
01:35:00,040 --> 01:35:03,840
Speaker 9: program as we've been, you know that it's it's very

1850
01:35:03,920 --> 01:35:05,760
Speaker 9: rare to have it to be the exact same guy.

1851
01:35:05,880 --> 01:35:08,120
Speaker 9: And so when you get to know Robbie, he's extremely humble.

1852
01:35:08,600 --> 01:35:12,200
Speaker 9: He's not a look at me guy, and he really

1853
01:35:12,200 --> 01:35:12,959
Speaker 9: works hard.

1854
01:35:12,720 --> 01:35:13,280
Speaker 5: Off the field.

1855
01:35:13,439 --> 01:35:16,479
Speaker 9: I mean he he's over a three point nine student,

1856
01:35:17,240 --> 01:35:18,920
Speaker 9: he's pre med. He's going to go to you know,

1857
01:35:18,920 --> 01:35:21,160
Speaker 9: he's going to go to dentist school afterwards and become

1858
01:35:21,200 --> 01:35:24,519
Speaker 9: a dentist. And and uh, he's just as driven and

1859
01:35:24,560 --> 01:35:27,000
Speaker 9: as humble as a guy as you can imagine. He's

1860
01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:29,200
Speaker 9: the hardest worker. He's not a big talker, so he

1861
01:35:29,200 --> 01:35:32,240
Speaker 9: doesn't talk much. He doesn't lead by yelling and screaming

1862
01:35:32,280 --> 01:35:34,599
Speaker 9: when when he talks, obviously people will listen to him

1863
01:35:34,600 --> 01:35:35,639
Speaker 9: and they hang on to every word.

1864
01:35:35,720 --> 01:35:38,200
Speaker 5: But he's a guy that.

1865
01:35:38,120 --> 01:35:39,920
Speaker 9: You just watch him, right, And so he's great for

1866
01:35:40,040 --> 01:35:42,439
Speaker 9: young guys, great for young receivers to be able to

1867
01:35:42,439 --> 01:35:46,439
Speaker 9: watch the way he works because he practices every day right.

1868
01:35:46,479 --> 01:35:48,519
Speaker 9: He wants to be out there even if he's banged up.

1869
01:35:48,560 --> 01:35:50,360
Speaker 9: He wants to make sure he's out there practicing every

1870
01:35:50,360 --> 01:35:53,479
Speaker 9: single day. And so he gets it done and so

1871
01:35:54,320 --> 01:35:55,760
Speaker 9: obviously know the parents really well.

1872
01:35:55,800 --> 01:35:58,639
Speaker 5: His brother is a is a guy that.

1873
01:35:58,680 --> 01:36:01,280
Speaker 9: That very much is in the the same mold as Robbie.

1874
01:36:01,479 --> 01:36:04,519
Speaker 9: I mean, Scotti's a sophomore quarterback for us. But I

1875
01:36:04,520 --> 01:36:06,920
Speaker 9: don't know if anybody puts more hours into the Paul football,

1876
01:36:06,960 --> 01:36:09,639
Speaker 9: into the game, study into how much he cares about

1877
01:36:09,680 --> 01:36:11,880
Speaker 9: to Paul football than Scotty Valentine. And he gets it

1878
01:36:11,880 --> 01:36:14,479
Speaker 9: done in the classroom as well. So just a very

1879
01:36:14,520 --> 01:36:17,040
Speaker 9: driven family of everybody that you're looking to get. If

1880
01:36:17,200 --> 01:36:19,200
Speaker 9: we could get a team full of those people, we

1881
01:36:19,200 --> 01:36:22,960
Speaker 9: would never lose. So but for the Paul and our

1882
01:36:22,960 --> 01:36:26,160
Speaker 9: program to have a Campbell Trophy finalist is and be

1883
01:36:26,240 --> 01:36:28,800
Speaker 9: the only Division three school is pretty remarkable. It's a

1884
01:36:28,840 --> 01:36:31,840
Speaker 9: pretty Robbie has put a great feather into Paul's cap,

1885
01:36:32,400 --> 01:36:35,439
Speaker 9: kind of drawing attention to us in that way, because it.

1886
01:36:35,479 --> 01:36:37,320
Speaker 5: Truly is a list of.

1887
01:36:37,320 --> 01:36:40,040
Speaker 9: Who's who on who's won that you know, Peyton Manning

1888
01:36:40,120 --> 01:36:43,000
Speaker 9: and Tim Tebow and these guys that have been finalists

1889
01:36:43,000 --> 01:36:45,680
Speaker 9: and have won. This is a pretty incredible list to

1890
01:36:45,680 --> 01:36:48,679
Speaker 9: be included on. And so I know Robbie's very honored

1891
01:36:48,680 --> 01:36:50,280
Speaker 9: and we're very honored to have him on that list.

1892
01:36:50,360 --> 01:36:52,720
Speaker 1: And by the way, wilebash folks, yeah, Liam Thomson was

1893
01:36:52,760 --> 01:36:55,120
Speaker 1: in that group two years ago. To it's the unique

1894
01:36:55,200 --> 01:36:59,639
Speaker 1: nature of these two wonderful institutions. You want your team

1895
01:37:00,320 --> 01:37:02,840
Speaker 1: to be a brotherhood. Well you literally have the brother

1896
01:37:02,880 --> 01:37:06,720
Speaker 1: to brother combination quarterback to wide receiver. What has that

1897
01:37:06,880 --> 01:37:10,439
Speaker 1: dynamic been to You mentioned Manning almost Peyton to Cooper

1898
01:37:10,600 --> 01:37:12,880
Speaker 1: back from their high school days. What's it like to

1899
01:37:12,920 --> 01:37:16,280
Speaker 1: watch little brother throw the ball to big brother during

1900
01:37:16,280 --> 01:37:17,080
Speaker 1: the course of a game.

1901
01:37:18,280 --> 01:37:20,519
Speaker 9: It's really cool. I mean, it's it's also one of

1902
01:37:20,560 --> 01:37:22,280
Speaker 9: those things that I never thought would we would have

1903
01:37:22,360 --> 01:37:24,320
Speaker 9: happen again. You know, we had the Hunt brother right,

1904
01:37:24,439 --> 01:37:27,000
Speaker 9: you know, back in twenty sixteen was Matt's senior year,

1905
01:37:27,080 --> 01:37:30,040
Speaker 9: and you know how fortunate we were to have those guys,

1906
01:37:30,040 --> 01:37:31,960
Speaker 9: and they were two of our best players as well,

1907
01:37:32,040 --> 01:37:34,679
Speaker 9: and and to say, oh man, this probably never happened again,

1908
01:37:34,720 --> 01:37:37,360
Speaker 9: and then you know less than you know all about

1909
01:37:37,360 --> 01:37:39,400
Speaker 9: ten years later, you know the same thing happened.

1910
01:37:39,439 --> 01:37:40,960
Speaker 5: So it's been cool.

1911
01:37:41,040 --> 01:37:43,120
Speaker 9: And that wasn't something that we forced on Scotty. It

1912
01:37:43,120 --> 01:37:46,200
Speaker 9: wasn't like, hey, Robbie's a senior, like, let's let's force

1913
01:37:46,200 --> 01:37:48,800
Speaker 9: Scotty into being the starting quarterback. No, he earned that job.

1914
01:37:49,200 --> 01:37:52,679
Speaker 9: He earned it through his play, through being consistent, and

1915
01:37:53,160 --> 01:37:55,200
Speaker 9: so that wasn't given to him. That was definitely earned.

1916
01:37:55,240 --> 01:37:55,559
Speaker 5: And so.

1917
01:37:57,439 --> 01:37:59,639
Speaker 9: But obviously when you when you're when your best player

1918
01:37:59,680 --> 01:38:02,200
Speaker 9: has his brother throwing it to him, you know that

1919
01:38:02,240 --> 01:38:04,680
Speaker 9: they have just don't even have to say much to

1920
01:38:04,680 --> 01:38:06,120
Speaker 9: each other. They can just nod and look at each

1921
01:38:06,120 --> 01:38:08,599
Speaker 9: other and kind of know what each other's talk thinking about.

1922
01:38:10,479 --> 01:38:11,920
Speaker 9: And so, but he's not the only one. We got

1923
01:38:11,960 --> 01:38:14,360
Speaker 9: some really good players around around Robbie too, because if.

1924
01:38:14,240 --> 01:38:16,200
Speaker 5: He was the only good player, then be.

1925
01:38:16,120 --> 01:38:18,280
Speaker 9: Pretty easy to stop him and we wouldn't win very

1926
01:38:18,320 --> 01:38:20,920
Speaker 9: many games. But we got weapons all over the field

1927
01:38:20,960 --> 01:38:23,519
Speaker 9: and I think that's what makes Robbie as good as

1928
01:38:23,520 --> 01:38:25,120
Speaker 9: he is because when he does get those one on

1929
01:38:25,120 --> 01:38:28,240
Speaker 9: one matchups, so he does get that that you know,

1930
01:38:28,280 --> 01:38:30,960
Speaker 9: double team matchup, we can still take advantage of. You know,

1931
01:38:31,439 --> 01:38:33,160
Speaker 9: they better do a great job over there, because if

1932
01:38:33,160 --> 01:38:34,640
Speaker 9: we can, we can throw it to him and throw

1933
01:38:34,640 --> 01:38:37,200
Speaker 9: it to everybody else, then we're gonna be pretty dangerous.

1934
01:38:37,280 --> 01:38:39,200
Speaker 1: I may not say the last name held the brand

1935
01:38:39,240 --> 01:38:41,479
Speaker 1: as often as you do Balantine in the course of

1936
01:38:41,520 --> 01:38:44,040
Speaker 1: the game on Saturday, but it's still of note. It

1937
01:38:44,120 --> 01:38:47,679
Speaker 1: is two separate players. Hunt wears eighteen and plays offense.

1938
01:38:48,080 --> 01:38:51,519
Speaker 1: Holt wears forty one and plays defense. How do you

1939
01:38:51,520 --> 01:38:54,320
Speaker 1: get two kids that have obviously the same last name

1940
01:38:54,360 --> 01:38:57,879
Speaker 1: from Tulsa, Oklahoma. How did they end up in Greencastle, Indiana.

1941
01:38:58,760 --> 01:39:01,000
Speaker 9: Well, they went to Hollow Hall and dad is the

1942
01:39:01,040 --> 01:39:04,400
Speaker 9: athletic director at Holland Hall High School YEP. And that's

1943
01:39:04,400 --> 01:39:06,880
Speaker 9: a that's an awesome private school there in Tulsa, and

1944
01:39:07,000 --> 01:39:10,240
Speaker 9: he sent athletes here before. And so those athletes have

1945
01:39:10,320 --> 01:39:12,160
Speaker 9: come to the Paul and they've they've had such a

1946
01:39:12,160 --> 01:39:15,000
Speaker 9: good time and they've had such a great experience at

1947
01:39:15,040 --> 01:39:17,000
Speaker 9: the Paul that when they go back home you know

1948
01:39:17,240 --> 01:39:20,000
Speaker 9: that those families talk about Paul a lot, and one

1949
01:39:20,000 --> 01:39:21,479
Speaker 9: of them is the White family. They send a pair

1950
01:39:21,479 --> 01:39:23,960
Speaker 9: of brothers here and had done track and football and stuff,

1951
01:39:24,000 --> 01:39:27,040
Speaker 9: and so, you know, I think that's a testament to

1952
01:39:27,040 --> 01:39:29,320
Speaker 9: the Paul and they kind of experienced those guys are having.

1953
01:39:29,320 --> 01:39:31,160
Speaker 5: And then they go back and they speak.

1954
01:39:30,880 --> 01:39:34,240
Speaker 9: So positively about the program and about the school that

1955
01:39:34,800 --> 01:39:36,880
Speaker 9: you know, the Hilda Brands, you know, the dad's the

1956
01:39:36,920 --> 01:39:38,360
Speaker 9: AD's like, I got we got to go check this

1957
01:39:38,400 --> 01:39:40,880
Speaker 9: place out. So he grot one of the twins, hopped

1958
01:39:40,880 --> 01:39:43,680
Speaker 9: in the car and they drove over, and one of

1959
01:39:43,680 --> 01:39:45,760
Speaker 9: the twins holt and and dad just fell in love

1960
01:39:45,760 --> 01:39:47,479
Speaker 9: with it, and he's like, well, we're going to have

1961
01:39:47,479 --> 01:39:49,800
Speaker 9: to bring older brother or the twin here, and we'll

1962
01:39:49,800 --> 01:39:51,760
Speaker 9: bring the rest of the family here. And sure enough,

1963
01:39:51,760 --> 01:39:53,439
Speaker 9: about ten days later, they all hopped in the car

1964
01:39:53,479 --> 01:39:54,479
Speaker 9: and brought the whole family.

1965
01:39:54,560 --> 01:39:55,919
Speaker 5: Because there's another one behind.

1966
01:39:55,720 --> 01:39:58,479
Speaker 9: Them too, who I think since seventh the eighth grade,

1967
01:39:58,520 --> 01:40:02,000
Speaker 9: and and so they brought over and it was pretty

1968
01:40:02,040 --> 01:40:04,320
Speaker 9: quickly there after that the whole family fell in love

1969
01:40:04,360 --> 01:40:04,840
Speaker 9: at the place.

1970
01:40:04,880 --> 01:40:06,640
Speaker 5: And so there we go.

1971
01:40:06,680 --> 01:40:09,320
Speaker 9: We end up with twins from from Fulse, Oklahoma.

1972
01:40:08,920 --> 01:40:11,960
Speaker 1: All right again, red Dies. Well the ball head coach

1977
01:40:22,800 --> 01:40:26,760
Speaker 1: A lot of defenses think they have a great day

1978
01:40:27,320 --> 01:40:31,600
Speaker 1: if they hold their opponent to one hundred yards rushing. Collectively,

1979
01:40:31,680 --> 01:40:34,439
Speaker 1: teams against you have run the football for ninety one

1980
01:40:34,520 --> 01:40:39,599
Speaker 1: yards all season long, and that is with having some

1981
01:40:39,680 --> 01:40:43,679
Speaker 1: significant graduation losses on both sides of the ball last year.

1982
01:40:44,080 --> 01:40:46,240
Speaker 1: How have you built a defense that has been this

1983
01:40:46,360 --> 01:40:48,760
Speaker 1: stingy now for a pretty long period of time.

1984
01:40:49,920 --> 01:40:52,080
Speaker 9: Well, we've always said that we're going to have a

1985
01:40:52,120 --> 01:40:54,360
Speaker 9: defense that is built on stop of the run first,

1986
01:40:54,920 --> 01:40:58,280
Speaker 9: because if you can make a team, you know, one sided,

1987
01:40:58,320 --> 01:41:00,400
Speaker 9: then then that's going to be a big advantage to you.

1988
01:41:00,560 --> 01:41:02,080
Speaker 9: And if you can run the ball, man, you can

1989
01:41:02,120 --> 01:41:04,240
Speaker 9: control a football game. You can control it with the clock,

1990
01:41:04,880 --> 01:41:07,080
Speaker 9: you know, we control it in a lot of different ways.

1991
01:41:07,080 --> 01:41:08,400
Speaker 5: It kind of opens up to play action.

1992
01:41:08,560 --> 01:41:11,600
Speaker 9: So our three four scheme was brought to us, you know,

1993
01:41:11,720 --> 01:41:14,880
Speaker 9: several years ago by by coach Hood, Jay Hood and

1994
01:41:15,680 --> 01:41:17,200
Speaker 9: I just fell in love with the scheme, and so

1995
01:41:17,280 --> 01:41:20,400
Speaker 9: we've had several different coordinators run run this type of scheme,

1996
01:41:20,400 --> 01:41:22,000
Speaker 9: but it's a three four scheme. We're not the only

1997
01:41:22,040 --> 01:41:25,000
Speaker 9: team that runs it. But you know, we we've freighted

1998
01:41:25,080 --> 01:41:28,600
Speaker 9: ourselves and taken away the run right and so you know,

1999
01:41:28,680 --> 01:41:31,040
Speaker 9: even when the game we lost, John Carroll thought we

2000
01:41:31,080 --> 01:41:34,120
Speaker 9: controlled the run pretty good. But it puts a little

2001
01:41:34,120 --> 01:41:35,920
Speaker 9: bit more pressure on the secondary right and so if

2002
01:41:35,920 --> 01:41:37,559
Speaker 9: you look at teams gaining in yards on us, it's

2003
01:41:37,600 --> 01:41:40,080
Speaker 9: been through the air, not through the ground. But but

2004
01:41:40,160 --> 01:41:42,519
Speaker 9: we've had, you know, several weeks we're a little bend

2005
01:41:42,560 --> 01:41:45,599
Speaker 9: but not break on the defensive side, and it really

2006
01:41:45,640 --> 01:41:48,680
Speaker 9: works for us. So obviously we know Walbash is going

2007
01:41:48,720 --> 01:41:50,040
Speaker 9: to try to run it. That's that's part of their

2008
01:41:50,160 --> 01:41:51,599
Speaker 9: mo They're not just going to chuck out.

2009
01:41:51,520 --> 01:41:52,200
Speaker 5: A bunch of times.

2010
01:41:52,200 --> 01:41:54,720
Speaker 9: But we got to be able to spend uh, you know,

2011
01:41:54,760 --> 01:41:57,320
Speaker 9: stop both the run in the past. But if we

2012
01:41:57,320 --> 01:41:59,479
Speaker 9: can shut down the run and make them one sided,

2013
01:41:59,520 --> 01:42:01,080
Speaker 9: we think that's going to be to our advantage. And

2014
01:42:01,080 --> 01:42:03,599
Speaker 9: that's really kind of our our philosophy with the defensive side,

2015
01:42:03,600 --> 01:42:06,240
Speaker 9: and so we've been putting up some crazy video game

2016
01:42:06,320 --> 01:42:06,960
Speaker 9: like numbers this.

2017
01:42:06,960 --> 01:42:07,960
Speaker 5: Year, stopping the run.

2018
01:42:08,040 --> 01:42:11,000
Speaker 9: And you know, once we shut down teams base runs,

2019
01:42:11,040 --> 01:42:12,600
Speaker 9: they just stop trying to run it on us and

2020
01:42:12,920 --> 01:42:15,400
Speaker 9: they just start, you know, trying to find ways to

2021
01:42:15,640 --> 01:42:18,559
Speaker 9: get it through the air. So you know, it's it's

2022
01:42:18,600 --> 01:42:21,240
Speaker 9: been it's been fun to see the numbers. But obviously

2023
01:42:21,240 --> 01:42:24,280
Speaker 9: we understand that every game is a new a new game,

2024
01:42:24,360 --> 01:42:26,880
Speaker 9: right and it doesn't matter what the stats are when

2025
01:42:26,880 --> 01:42:28,759
Speaker 9: the first quarter hits. Man, you got to play football,

2026
01:42:28,800 --> 01:42:32,280
Speaker 9: and you got to play good, fundamental football, and you

2027
01:42:32,320 --> 01:42:34,719
Speaker 9: know you got to be ready for for everybody's best punch.

2028
01:42:35,080 --> 01:42:36,720
Speaker 9: And that's what we talked about all year, you know,

2029
01:42:36,760 --> 01:42:39,519
Speaker 9: and we come off the past four seasons of winning

2030
01:42:39,520 --> 01:42:42,160
Speaker 9: four straight conference championships. You know you're going to get

2031
01:42:42,160 --> 01:42:44,920
Speaker 9: everybody's best punch, right, You're gonna get everybody's best effort.

2032
01:42:45,439 --> 01:42:47,559
Speaker 9: And we're gonna be ready for that on Saturday as well.

2033
01:42:47,640 --> 01:42:50,640
Speaker 1: I think before we let you go, every win you

2034
01:42:50,680 --> 01:42:54,840
Speaker 1: celebrate everyone against Wabash, you really celebrate. Twenty twenty two

2035
01:42:54,840 --> 01:42:57,800
Speaker 1: and twenty twenty four. They were frankly the only non

2036
01:42:57,960 --> 01:43:00,800
Speaker 1: one score wins in the in there in the sixth

2037
01:43:00,840 --> 01:43:03,519
Speaker 1: and the last eight meetings between the two teams. Was

2038
01:43:03,560 --> 01:43:07,600
Speaker 1: the game at Wabash two years ago. The best football

2039
01:43:07,640 --> 01:43:09,280
Speaker 1: game you have ever been a part of.

2040
01:43:12,000 --> 01:43:13,800
Speaker 9: It doesn't feel like that when you're going through it.

2041
01:43:14,120 --> 01:43:17,880
Speaker 9: To play you that fair enough was a not the

2042
01:43:17,920 --> 01:43:22,240
Speaker 9: whole game obviously, It's one of the most memorable games

2043
01:43:22,360 --> 01:43:25,320
Speaker 9: I've played, for sure. But yeah, the first, the first

2044
01:43:25,360 --> 01:43:28,479
Speaker 9: overtime game in mon On Bell history, the first double

2045
01:43:28,520 --> 01:43:33,439
Speaker 9: overteam in Mona Bell Hills history with the Tigers winning, like, yes,

2046
01:43:33,439 --> 01:43:35,240
Speaker 9: for sure, especially at their place. It's a little bit

2047
01:43:35,240 --> 01:43:38,439
Speaker 9: sweeter when you went up there, and so yeah, that

2048
01:43:38,880 --> 01:43:40,719
Speaker 9: is by far the best game I've ever.

2049
01:43:40,600 --> 01:43:41,120
Speaker 5: Been a part of.

2050
01:43:41,400 --> 01:43:43,800
Speaker 1: Understood, my friend. I'll see you on Saturday. Thanks the time.

2051
01:43:43,840 --> 01:43:46,320
Speaker 1: You and I will have an off air versus conversation tomorrow.

2052
01:43:46,360 --> 01:43:48,599
Speaker 1: Thank you, coach awesome, talk to you soon.

2053
01:43:48,600 --> 01:43:49,280
Speaker 5: Thanks for having me on.

2054
01:43:49,320 --> 01:43:51,640
Speaker 1: You got it Red dates again. He is the football

2055
01:43:51,640 --> 01:43:54,920
Speaker 1: coach at DePaul University. And one more time. The one

2056
01:43:55,000 --> 01:43:58,880
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty first Monon Bell Classic kickoff is at

2057
01:43:58,920 --> 01:44:02,160
Speaker 1: one o seven at Little Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Catch

2058
01:44:02,200 --> 01:44:05,360
Speaker 1: all the action on the ISC Sports Network again, I

2059
01:44:05,479 --> 01:44:12,000
Speaker 1: Sportsnetwork dot Com, Twitter, YouTube, Twitch, Apple TV, Roku, we're

2060
01:44:12,000 --> 01:44:15,519
Speaker 1: working on training the carrier pigeons. It is free to view,

2061
01:44:15,640 --> 01:44:20,160
Speaker 1: and there will be watch parties all all across literally

2062
01:44:20,200 --> 01:44:24,480
Speaker 1: the world, and hopefully we have figured out a technology

2063
01:44:24,520 --> 01:44:25,600
Speaker 1: for us to be able to kind of look in

2064
01:44:25,640 --> 01:44:28,280
Speaker 1: on some of those watch parties and be as interactive

2065
01:44:28,360 --> 01:44:31,679
Speaker 1: on the broadcast as possible. Now, Eddie, my guess would

2066
01:44:31,720 --> 01:44:35,200
Speaker 1: be you have not experienced a Monon Bell classic.

2067
01:44:35,280 --> 01:44:35,640
Speaker 5: I have not.

2068
01:44:36,000 --> 01:44:40,360
Speaker 1: All right, again, we will add that to your homework assignment,

2069
01:44:41,200 --> 01:44:45,000
Speaker 1: much as we had from Jay Query. In terms of movies.

2070
01:44:46,560 --> 01:44:49,519
Speaker 1: Have you what movies have you watched that he has

2071
01:44:49,560 --> 01:44:51,439
Speaker 1: assigned to you since this project?

2072
01:44:51,439 --> 01:44:51,679
Speaker 5: Again?

2073
01:44:51,800 --> 01:44:55,680
Speaker 2: Goodwill Hunting number one movie I referenced off air, by

2074
01:44:55,680 --> 01:45:00,240
Speaker 2: the way, Yes, and then Shashakrediption is on the list.

2075
01:45:00,960 --> 01:45:03,040
Speaker 2: Fast Times at Richmond High was another one that I've

2076
01:45:03,040 --> 01:45:06,360
Speaker 2: watched that you watch? Yes, okay, y have watched? Yeah,

2077
01:45:06,400 --> 01:45:08,840
Speaker 2: but you have not watched Shaw Shank yet. He has

2078
01:45:09,040 --> 01:45:12,160
Speaker 2: promised that we will have a watch party over at Casa.

2079
01:45:11,880 --> 01:45:15,479
Speaker 1: Debut as in the Cat's House. Yes, right, yeah, do

2080
01:45:15,520 --> 01:45:18,040
Speaker 1: you have any cat watching duties by the way, while

2081
01:45:18,040 --> 01:45:19,280
Speaker 1: he is overseas, I.

2082
01:45:19,360 --> 01:45:23,599
Speaker 2: Do not, Okay, I do not. I have cat watched before. Yes,

2083
01:45:24,280 --> 01:45:26,120
Speaker 2: I heard the sense why I referenced it? Yees, yeah,

2084
01:45:26,160 --> 01:45:28,599
Speaker 2: no cat watching for me this time. I believe Caleb

2085
01:45:28,640 --> 01:45:30,639
Speaker 2: Zuver is in charge of that Let go round?

2086
01:45:31,320 --> 01:45:33,360
Speaker 1: Is it rotate amongst different fans staffers?

2087
01:45:33,400 --> 01:45:34,360
Speaker 2: Exactly way this works?

2088
01:45:34,439 --> 01:45:36,960
Speaker 1: I guess so so I thought, you know, Caleb's low

2089
01:45:36,960 --> 01:45:38,920
Speaker 1: point of the weekend was was dealing with me on

2090
01:45:38,960 --> 01:45:42,719
Speaker 1: soccer Saturday. Apparently I was wrong as being on cat

2091
01:45:42,760 --> 01:45:46,720
Speaker 1: sitting duty while Jake is away. Three one seven nine,

2097
01:46:03,080 --> 01:46:05,080
Speaker 1: that being one of the two running back seat of course,

2098
01:46:05,080 --> 01:46:07,719
Speaker 1: and mister Hemby from that at Indiana University. And again

2099
01:46:07,880 --> 01:46:13,120
Speaker 1: of all of the stories that I cover, and i

2100
01:46:13,200 --> 01:46:16,559
Speaker 1: U football is really not on my beat anymore, you know,

2101
01:46:16,600 --> 01:46:19,160
Speaker 1: the Colts part of my beat, All things high school

2102
01:46:19,200 --> 01:46:24,120
Speaker 1: football part of the beat. Andy eleven soccer obviously, I

2103
01:46:24,240 --> 01:46:28,400
Speaker 1: you Indie basketball. So many things that I cover. There

2104
01:46:28,400 --> 01:46:30,400
Speaker 1: are a few things that I get to watch as

2105
01:46:30,439 --> 01:46:34,840
Speaker 1: a fan, like, for example, Pacers. I'm gonna watch them

2106
01:46:35,000 --> 01:46:39,160
Speaker 1: knowing we're talking about them on the show, but I'll

2107
01:46:39,160 --> 01:46:43,080
Speaker 1: probably watch more of tonight's game knowing I'm hosting three

2108
01:46:43,160 --> 01:46:47,040
Speaker 1: hours of sports talk radio tomorrow. We need to talk

2109
01:46:47,040 --> 01:46:49,559
Speaker 1: about the Pacers Sun's game, which of course you can

2110
01:46:49,560 --> 01:46:51,960
Speaker 1: hear on ninety three to five and one seven five

2111
01:46:52,040 --> 01:46:54,479
Speaker 1: the Fan Tonight at eight thirty, we want to talk

2112
01:46:54,479 --> 01:46:58,160
Speaker 1: about it. I barely talked about them today for the

2113
01:46:58,240 --> 01:47:00,679
Speaker 1: exact reason that I gave ear you're going to show

2114
01:47:01,720 --> 01:47:05,400
Speaker 1: it's an easy explanation as to why they have struggled

2115
01:47:05,439 --> 01:47:09,920
Speaker 1: so much. You take away so many key pieces from

2116
01:47:09,960 --> 01:47:13,400
Speaker 1: an injury and in one case a free agent standpoint,

2117
01:47:14,680 --> 01:47:18,760
Speaker 1: it's made it impossible to recover. Obviously, things got away

2118
01:47:18,760 --> 01:47:20,880
Speaker 1: from them against the Jazz, who are not a good

2119
01:47:20,880 --> 01:47:25,200
Speaker 1: team that scored one hundred and fifty two points against

2120
01:47:25,200 --> 01:47:28,879
Speaker 1: the Pacers on Tuesday night. We'll see if the Suns

2121
01:47:28,920 --> 01:47:32,160
Speaker 1: are any different in terms of how the Pacers shape

2122
01:47:32,200 --> 01:47:33,800
Speaker 1: up tonight. But it's we don't have to do this

2123
01:47:33,840 --> 01:47:38,640
Speaker 1: big deep dive into the Pacers. It's it's nobody's fault.

2124
01:47:39,080 --> 01:47:44,599
Speaker 1: It's just you're missing Tyrese Halliburton and Miles Turner and Benettic,

2125
01:47:44,680 --> 01:47:49,200
Speaker 1: Matheren and Obi Toppin and for a good chunk of time,

2126
01:47:49,240 --> 01:47:53,439
Speaker 1: Andrew Nemhard and for a good chunk of time TJ McConnell.

2127
01:47:53,479 --> 01:47:55,800
Speaker 1: Like going into the season, you go, hey, if my

2128
01:47:55,840 --> 01:47:59,760
Speaker 1: point guard combination is TJ McConnell as well as Andrew

2129
01:47:59,800 --> 01:48:05,479
Speaker 1: new Hard, I'm gonna be okay with that. Well, that

2130
01:48:06,160 --> 01:48:09,360
Speaker 1: didn't last through the first preseason game, and by the

2131
01:48:09,360 --> 01:48:11,559
Speaker 1: time you got to game number two you have either

2132
01:48:12,160 --> 01:48:14,840
Speaker 1: of those guys, So some of those pieces are coming back.

2133
01:48:16,320 --> 01:48:19,639
Speaker 1: But after the it is just just such a shame

2134
01:48:19,680 --> 01:48:22,360
Speaker 1: and I feel so bad for so many friends of

2135
01:48:22,400 --> 01:48:27,280
Speaker 1: mine at Pacer Sports Entertainment. This was not the afterglow

2136
01:48:27,320 --> 01:48:32,639
Speaker 1: you were supposed to have of getting one game away

2137
01:48:32,680 --> 01:48:37,880
Speaker 1: from winning a world championship in June. This was not

2138
01:48:38,240 --> 01:48:42,040
Speaker 1: the fate you were supposed to have. Fate can be

2139
01:48:42,080 --> 01:48:45,400
Speaker 1: a cruel mistress sometimes, Jacob, let's talk monon bell game.

2140
01:48:45,479 --> 01:48:47,519
Speaker 1: Let me get Jacob now before we get to our

2141
01:48:47,560 --> 01:48:51,160
Speaker 1: next time out. Hello, Jacob, how are you? The old

2142
01:48:51,360 --> 01:48:52,120
Speaker 1: wall Bes.

2174
01:50:16,479 --> 01:50:20,040
Speaker 1: in terms of Indiana University football players. But obviously the

2175
01:50:20,080 --> 01:50:23,120
Speaker 1: story over the last couple of years has been fascinating

2176
01:50:23,200 --> 01:50:26,840
Speaker 1: and it continues in a positive light. Given a remarkable drive,

2177
01:50:27,280 --> 01:50:29,600

2185
01:50:52,960 --> 01:50:57,120
Speaker 1: kind of jaw dropped at how successful this program has become.

2186
01:50:57,880 --> 01:51:01,439
Speaker 1: What has this fifteen to eighteen month ride been like

2187

2189
01:51:05,800 --> 01:51:09,559
Speaker 11: Man, just from the beginning, just Koch Sig establishing who

2190
01:51:09,560 --> 01:51:11,800
Speaker 11: he is as a coach and just trying to get

2191
01:51:11,800 --> 01:51:14,160
Speaker 11: guys to buy into the system, his winning culture and

2192
01:51:14,160 --> 01:51:18,320
Speaker 11: his winning ways and then just say things change month

2193
01:51:18,400 --> 01:51:18,880
Speaker 11: by month.

01:51:19,160 --> 01:51:20,519
Speaker 3: Has been great to be a part of.

2195
01:51:20,960 --> 01:51:22,960
Speaker 11: And just now we're at this point today where we're

2196
01:51:23,040 --> 01:51:25,840
Speaker 11: just winning out the close games and Klawn and fighting

2197
01:51:25,840 --> 01:51:26,320
Speaker 11: as a team.

2198
01:51:26,400 --> 01:51:29,519
Speaker 1: Well, obviously we touched on this off the start. This

2199
01:51:29,600 --> 01:51:32,200
Speaker 1: is not year two with coach Sig with you. This

2200
01:51:32,240 --> 01:51:36,479
Speaker 1: is year five. What drew you to him and James

2201
01:51:36,520 --> 01:51:39,799
Speaker 1: Madison back in twenty nineteen, twenty twenty.

2202
01:51:41,040 --> 01:51:43,400
Speaker 11: Definitely his winning ways man, and just knowing that he

2203
01:51:43,439 --> 01:51:45,679
Speaker 11: has a great staff around him, a lot of guys

2204
01:51:45,720 --> 01:51:49,519
Speaker 11: that are bought in, everyone wants to win, and just

2205
01:51:49,680 --> 01:51:51,320
Speaker 11: you can learn from the players as well a lot

2206
01:51:51,320 --> 01:51:53,840
Speaker 11: of great players those guys. That's where he helped me

2207
01:51:53,920 --> 01:51:55,320
Speaker 11: get to the point that I'm at today.

2208
01:51:56,160 --> 01:51:57,840
Speaker 1: By the way, does it sink kN that you've now

2209
01:51:57,880 --> 01:51:59,559
Speaker 1: been doing this for I said five year? It's really

2210
01:51:59,600 --> 01:52:01,840
Speaker 1: been sick five and a half years that you've been

2211
01:52:01,880 --> 01:52:05,360
Speaker 1: playing college football. Does it seem like forever ago when

2212
01:52:05,360 --> 01:52:06,599
Speaker 1: you were making that decision?

2213
01:52:07,439 --> 01:52:07,639
Speaker 6: Man?

2214
01:52:07,760 --> 01:52:08,719
Speaker 3: Sometimes it does.

2215
01:52:08,840 --> 01:52:09,000
Speaker 7: Man.

2216
01:52:09,120 --> 01:52:13,599
Speaker 11: Then I realized I'm like, man, like, yeah, I don't

2217
01:52:13,600 --> 01:52:15,559
Speaker 11: even know what to say, Like sometimes I don't even

2218
01:52:15,560 --> 01:52:18,719
Speaker 11: really like understand how long I've really been playing football

2219
01:52:18,760 --> 01:52:19,440
Speaker 11: in college.

2220
01:52:19,800 --> 01:52:22,120
Speaker 1: Well, Kaylon does not already have his bachelor's degree, so

2221
01:52:22,160 --> 01:52:24,880
Speaker 1: he has you taking that time and put it to

2222
01:52:24,920 --> 01:52:29,440
Speaker 1: good use. When you made the move from Virginia to Indiana,

2223
01:52:30,360 --> 01:52:32,759
Speaker 1: did what sort of goals did you set for yourself?

2224
01:52:32,920 --> 01:52:36,040
Speaker 1: What sort of success did you think was possibly out

2225
01:52:36,040 --> 01:52:38,360
Speaker 1: there for you and those other guys that made the

2226
01:52:38,439 --> 01:52:40,240
Speaker 1: move from JMU to Bloomington.

2227
01:52:41,320 --> 01:52:45,599
Speaker 11: Definitely our goals was to establish ourselves on this level

2228
01:52:45,680 --> 01:52:48,439
Speaker 11: because you know, coming from the G five and also

2229
01:52:48,600 --> 01:52:52,240
Speaker 11: SCS while Jamie was SCS, you know, you get looked

2230
01:52:52,240 --> 01:52:55,120
Speaker 11: at differently by the guys in the P four sometimes.

2231
01:52:55,120 --> 01:52:57,439
Speaker 11: So we just wanted to come in and like let

2232
01:52:57,560 --> 01:53:00,400
Speaker 11: people know, like, hey, we can play football, but level,

2233
01:53:00,439 --> 01:53:03,080
Speaker 11: Like we put in the same type of time that

2234
01:53:03,120 --> 01:53:05,479
Speaker 11: you do, and we we also put in that same

2235
01:53:05,560 --> 01:53:07,880
Speaker 11: grind and just coming from the program that coach c

2236
01:53:08,040 --> 01:53:11,280
Speaker 11: Bilt at James Madison coming here kind of made it

2237
01:53:11,280 --> 01:53:15,280
Speaker 11: easier just like in terms of just knowing the system

2238
01:53:15,320 --> 01:53:18,000
Speaker 11: and helping other people and get on the same page.

2239
01:53:18,000 --> 01:53:21,120
Speaker 11: So It's just it's just definitely been like a pleasure

2240
01:53:21,200 --> 01:53:22,479
Speaker 11: just to even be here again.

2241
01:53:22,560 --> 01:53:25,000
Speaker 1: Kaylin Black is our guest. Greg reis run for j Query.

2242
01:53:25,040 --> 01:53:27,439
Speaker 1: It's only three to five and one seven to five

2243
01:53:27,560 --> 01:53:31,840
Speaker 1: the fan. You know, almost all of us just kind

2244
01:53:31,840 --> 01:53:35,080
Speaker 1: of expected almost a little bit of regression on the

2245
01:53:35,120 --> 01:53:37,240
Speaker 1: team this year, not because you guys are going to

2246
01:53:37,280 --> 01:53:40,679
Speaker 1: do wrong, because we thought this is Indiana, it can't

2247
01:53:40,680 --> 01:53:43,920
Speaker 1: be this good again, and now seemingly it is even better.

2248
01:53:44,479 --> 01:53:48,559
Speaker 1: What was your guys mindset going into the off season

2249
01:53:49,080 --> 01:53:52,559
Speaker 1: to make sure that twenty twenty five was even better

2250
01:53:52,600 --> 01:53:53,920
Speaker 1: than twenty twenty four.

2251
01:53:55,520 --> 01:53:58,960
Speaker 11: Definitely just learning from our mistakes from twenty twenty four,

2252
01:54:00,360 --> 01:54:03,360
Speaker 11: taking those and applying applying pressure to our team, and

2253
01:54:03,439 --> 01:54:06,040
Speaker 11: just making sure like, hey, guys, like we have the

2254
01:54:06,160 --> 01:54:08,160
Speaker 11: talent and we have the means to be able to

2255
01:54:08,200 --> 01:54:10,240
Speaker 11: reach the goals that we want to reach, and we

2256
01:54:10,320 --> 01:54:11,840
Speaker 11: just have to go out there and work hard every

2257
01:54:11,840 --> 01:54:13,880
Speaker 11: single day to get to where we want to get to.

2258
01:54:14,160 --> 01:54:16,720
Speaker 11: And Koch Siega's done a great job of instilling that

2259
01:54:17,240 --> 01:54:20,160
Speaker 11: want to with that fast, physical and relivelessness that we

2260
01:54:20,280 --> 01:54:21,639
Speaker 11: have to have to be great.

2261
01:54:22,000 --> 01:54:23,599
Speaker 1: Well, the thing is, you didn't make that many mistakes

2262
01:54:23,680 --> 01:54:25,160
Speaker 1: last year. Just so you know, I mean the two

2263
01:54:25,160 --> 01:54:28,280
Speaker 1: teams you lost too played in the National Championship Game.

2264
01:54:28,320 --> 01:54:31,040
Speaker 1: But kind of to that point, how do you feel

2265
01:54:31,080 --> 01:54:33,720
Speaker 1: you're a better football team this year than you were

2266
01:54:33,760 --> 01:54:34,320
Speaker 1: a year ago?

2267
01:54:36,080 --> 01:54:39,480
Speaker 11: Pretty much in all phases, honestly, Like we just we

2268
01:54:39,560 --> 01:54:41,600
Speaker 11: reloaded and we were able to, like like I said,

2269
01:54:41,680 --> 01:54:44,240
Speaker 11: learn from our mistakes from the year before, and we

2270
01:54:44,440 --> 01:54:47,879
Speaker 11: just watched the film and make those corrections and practice

2271
01:54:47,880 --> 01:54:50,120
Speaker 11: hard every single day, and we just have that high

2272
01:54:50,200 --> 01:54:51,920
Speaker 11: expectation just to be great.

2273
01:54:52,160 --> 01:54:55,640
Speaker 1: One of the things that strikes me in watching the

2274
01:54:55,680 --> 01:54:58,640
Speaker 1: way you play on both sides of the football is

2275
01:54:58,680 --> 01:55:01,400
Speaker 1: that it is such a a physical brand of football,

2276
01:55:01,920 --> 01:55:04,320
Speaker 1: and that is something that you feel that can travel

2277
01:55:04,320 --> 01:55:07,120
Speaker 1: whether you're playing in front of fifty thousand of your

2278
01:55:07,160 --> 01:55:09,520
Speaker 1: fans or playing in front of one hundred thousand of

2279
01:55:09,560 --> 01:55:12,800
Speaker 1: the other guys fans as you are on Saturday. That

2280
01:55:13,120 --> 01:55:16,920
Speaker 1: level of physicality, what sort of work do you guys

2281
01:55:17,000 --> 01:55:20,200
Speaker 1: put in, if not twenty four to seven, three sixty five,

2282
01:55:20,280 --> 01:55:23,080
Speaker 1: then literally twelve months a year to ensure that you

2283
01:55:23,120 --> 01:55:26,200
Speaker 1: can go out and do that on a given Saturday afternoon.

2284
01:55:27,800 --> 01:55:30,560
Speaker 11: We are blessed to have a great friends coach and

2285
01:55:30,600 --> 01:55:33,560
Speaker 11: a strength staff like we do with DoD leader being

2286
01:55:33,640 --> 01:55:35,880
Speaker 11: Dereck Oins. Just the things that we do in the

2287
01:55:35,920 --> 01:55:40,040
Speaker 11: off season, speed work and just different things that help

2288
01:55:40,160 --> 01:55:42,760
Speaker 11: us to stay physical in get us stronger, and get

2289
01:55:42,800 --> 01:55:45,160
Speaker 11: us faster and help us be more ad jobs is

2290
01:55:45,240 --> 01:55:47,840
Speaker 11: just those things carry over over time, and he also

2291
01:55:47,880 --> 01:55:50,200
Speaker 11: wants to make sure that we're also mobile at the

2292
01:55:50,200 --> 01:55:53,440
Speaker 11: same time and never getting too stiff, and they just

2293
01:55:53,480 --> 01:55:55,120
Speaker 11: do a great job with us and it just carries

2294
01:55:55,160 --> 01:55:57,960
Speaker 11: on over from months a month and that's just how

2295
01:55:57,960 --> 01:55:59,040
Speaker 11: we get physical.

2296
01:55:58,760 --> 01:55:59,080
Speaker 6: All right.

2297
01:55:59,120 --> 01:56:03,160
Speaker 1: With that, what's going through your mind with a minute

2298
01:56:03,240 --> 01:56:05,720
Speaker 1: fifty one left to go as you take to the field,

2299
01:56:06,320 --> 01:56:09,520
Speaker 1: you're down four, You're trying to keep that perfect season going,

2300
01:56:10,040 --> 01:56:13,280
Speaker 1: and you're eighty yards away from the house. Kind of

2301
01:56:13,280 --> 01:56:16,000
Speaker 1: where's your headspace at as that drives about to start.

2302
01:56:17,120 --> 01:56:19,480
Speaker 11: Making sure that we're as calm as possible. These are

2303
01:56:19,480 --> 01:56:21,400
Speaker 11: the things that we work on in practice all the time.

2304
01:56:21,480 --> 01:56:24,760
Speaker 11: The two minute gerald that we always do different situations,

2305
01:56:24,800 --> 01:56:28,360
Speaker 11: whether it's a minute left, forty five seconds, a minute twenty,

2306
01:56:28,600 --> 01:56:32,360
Speaker 11: a minute fifty one, just making sure that we've been

2307
01:56:32,400 --> 01:56:35,120
Speaker 11: in these situations before and we felt like we were

2308
01:56:35,120 --> 01:56:37,240
Speaker 11: prepared for the moment, and we were able to see

2309
01:56:37,240 --> 01:56:39,880
Speaker 11: the moment as we went out on the field and

2310
01:56:39,920 --> 01:56:42,280
Speaker 11: put it all together again.

2311
01:56:42,320 --> 01:56:44,920
Speaker 1: Obviously, you've got a different view than all of us

2312
01:56:44,960 --> 01:56:48,280
Speaker 1: do in terms of having that sideline camera as to

2313
01:56:48,320 --> 01:56:51,480
Speaker 1: see Omar make the play that he did to ensure

2314
01:56:51,480 --> 01:56:56,080
Speaker 1: that that touchdown stood. What was it like watching that

2315
01:56:56,200 --> 01:56:59,040
Speaker 1: happen from field level and going, oh, my goodness, he

2316
01:56:59,080 --> 01:57:00,120
Speaker 1: actually got both feet down.

2317
01:57:01,640 --> 01:57:04,400
Speaker 11: Man, So I was actually blocking and the next thing,

2318
01:57:04,400 --> 01:57:07,360
Speaker 11: you know, like I just see the ball get thrown

2319
01:57:07,920 --> 01:57:10,520
Speaker 11: and I see him catch it, And at first I

2320
01:57:10,560 --> 01:57:12,560
Speaker 11: didn't know if he had got his footing bounce, but

2321
01:57:12,640 --> 01:57:15,400
Speaker 11: as I see the rev hold his hands up, I'm like, yes,

2322
01:57:15,760 --> 01:57:19,400
Speaker 11: like we needed that, and in that moment it was

2323
01:57:19,440 --> 01:57:23,240
Speaker 11: just like the biggest like sign of release because like,

2324
01:57:23,840 --> 01:57:26,120
Speaker 11: of course, like it's a it's an intense situation, but

2325
01:57:26,200 --> 01:57:28,400
Speaker 11: at the same time, like that man just made a

2326
01:57:28,440 --> 01:57:31,680
Speaker 11: great catch and it was just crazy to see.

2327
01:57:31,840 --> 01:57:33,520
Speaker 1: I was gonna say when you back in, when you

2328
01:57:33,520 --> 01:57:35,520
Speaker 1: went back and saw the footage, and obviously these days

2329
01:57:35,600 --> 01:57:37,680
Speaker 1: that means when you're checking social media when you're on

2330
01:57:37,720 --> 01:57:40,720
Speaker 1: your phone after the game, Then what was it like

2331
01:57:40,800 --> 01:57:43,600
Speaker 1: watching the acrobatics he pulled off in mid air to

2332
01:57:43,640 --> 01:57:44,360
Speaker 1: make that happen.

2333
01:57:45,200 --> 01:57:48,800
Speaker 11: It was amazing, Like every single page posted it, so

2334
01:57:48,840 --> 01:57:51,880
Speaker 11: you couldn't scroll without seeing it. But it was just

2335
01:57:51,920 --> 01:57:53,760
Speaker 11: like every time I seen it, I just had to

2336
01:57:53,800 --> 01:57:56,280
Speaker 11: smile more and more out of amazement because it's just

2337
01:57:56,320 --> 01:57:59,240
Speaker 11: like I don't think I've ever seen like with my

2338
01:57:59,400 --> 01:58:02,440
Speaker 11: two eyes on the same field anything like that in

2339
01:58:02,440 --> 01:58:02,840
Speaker 11: my life.

2340
01:58:02,920 --> 01:58:05,920
Speaker 1: All Right, you and rowand Hemy are almost identical in

2341
01:58:06,040 --> 01:58:09,280
Speaker 1: terms of yards. He's had just a handful of more

2342
01:58:09,280 --> 01:58:12,480
Speaker 1: carries than you. What's it been like sharing kind of

2343
01:58:12,480 --> 01:58:15,680
Speaker 1: the load with him this year for this football team?

2344
01:58:16,040 --> 01:58:16,840
Speaker 11: And it's been great.

2345
01:58:16,880 --> 01:58:17,080
Speaker 7: Man.

2346
01:58:17,160 --> 01:58:20,440
Speaker 11: Me and Rome, like we're close, and we just push

2347
01:58:20,480 --> 01:58:22,640
Speaker 11: each other to go hard east and every single day,

2348
01:58:22,840 --> 01:58:25,200
Speaker 11: and even with Kobe and Solomon, we all push each

2349
01:58:25,200 --> 01:58:27,920
Speaker 11: other to just be as best as we can for

2350
01:58:28,000 --> 01:58:31,440
Speaker 11: each other and for the team, regardless of us of

2351
01:58:31,520 --> 01:58:33,760
Speaker 11: us just splinning cares anything like that. We just go

2352
01:58:33,800 --> 01:58:35,320
Speaker 11: out there and do what we can and make sure

2353
01:58:35,320 --> 01:58:37,360
Speaker 11: that we were helping a team.

2354
01:58:37,360 --> 01:58:38,800
Speaker 1: A couple of quick things and then we'll let you

2355
01:58:38,880 --> 01:58:41,160
Speaker 1: go again. Kaylon Black is our guest. Greg Reichs run

2356
01:58:41,160 --> 01:58:43,480
Speaker 1: for j Query ninety three to five and one oh

2357
01:58:43,640 --> 01:58:46,080
Speaker 1: seven to five of the fan. If you play your

2358
01:58:46,160 --> 01:58:49,840
Speaker 1: cards right, this Saturday at home against Wisconsin is the

2359
01:58:49,920 --> 01:58:51,680
Speaker 1: last time that you get to play. In other words,

2360
01:58:51,720 --> 01:58:53,800
Speaker 1: if you do your job, you know you're in the

2361
01:58:53,800 --> 01:58:56,280
Speaker 1: college football Playoff, but you're also kind of seated to

2362
01:58:56,320 --> 01:58:58,400
Speaker 1: a point where you don't get a home game. You're

2363
01:58:58,400 --> 01:59:00,800
Speaker 1: gonna be playing in a traditional bowl game come New

2364
01:59:00,880 --> 01:59:04,040
Speaker 1: Year's ever on January the first. So if this weekend

2365
01:59:04,160 --> 01:59:06,920
Speaker 1: is the last time, after two years, you get to

2366
01:59:06,920 --> 01:59:10,080
Speaker 1: play a home game in Bloomington, what has this temporary

2367
01:59:10,080 --> 01:59:10,840
Speaker 1: home meant to you?

2368
01:59:12,240 --> 01:59:14,840
Speaker 11: It means a lot, like this is somewhere that has

2369
01:59:15,000 --> 01:59:18,240
Speaker 11: helped me to elevate my game to hypes that I

2370
01:59:18,360 --> 01:59:21,320
Speaker 11: needed to reach, and I feel like being on this level,

2371
01:59:21,480 --> 01:59:24,760
Speaker 11: being at this program, it will never leave and it

2372
01:59:24,760 --> 01:59:26,640
Speaker 11: will always have a place in my heart.

2373
01:59:27,440 --> 01:59:31,360
Speaker 1: Again, Kaylon Black, our guests, all Right, so you're pretty

2374
01:59:31,360 --> 01:59:33,560
Speaker 1: busy with what's coming up here in the immediate future

2375
01:59:33,560 --> 01:59:37,120
Speaker 1: for your football team. Do you let your mind drift

2376
01:59:37,720 --> 01:59:41,600
Speaker 1: towards playing Sunday football next year? Is that at all

2377
01:59:41,640 --> 01:59:43,760
Speaker 1: on your radar or will that kind of take care

2378
01:59:43,760 --> 01:59:47,640
Speaker 1: of itself once whatever happens for you, guys, in January.

2379
01:59:47,680 --> 01:59:51,880
Speaker 11: Happens right now is just all about just trying to

2380
01:59:51,880 --> 01:59:54,320
Speaker 11: win this game on Saturday and then the game the

2381
01:59:54,360 --> 01:59:57,280
Speaker 11: following week. But of course, like being a competitor that

2382
01:59:57,360 --> 01:59:59,200
Speaker 11: I am, you always have that thought in the back

2383
01:59:59,200 --> 02:00:02,360
Speaker 11: of your mind of playing on Sundays, but you always

2384
02:00:02,360 --> 02:00:06,480
Speaker 11: have to stay stay focused and pay attention to what's

2385
02:00:06,480 --> 02:00:07,040
Speaker 11: in front of you.

2386
02:00:07,840 --> 02:00:09,120
Speaker 1: And I f I thing before we let you go.

2387
02:00:09,320 --> 02:00:11,280
Speaker 1: And again, you've now been here for the last year

2388
02:00:11,280 --> 02:00:14,000
Speaker 1: and a half, two years, but Virginia Beach, Virginia's is

2389
02:00:14,040 --> 02:00:16,960
Speaker 1: Where's home for Kaylon? In case you don't know, what

2390
02:00:17,000 --> 02:00:19,280
Speaker 1: has it been like to kind of see reaction people

2391
02:00:19,360 --> 02:00:21,720
Speaker 1: like me that are just like, We've never seen this

2392
02:00:21,840 --> 02:00:25,720
Speaker 1: Indiana football. I'm almost fifty years old. I remember when

2393
02:00:25,800 --> 02:00:28,640
Speaker 1: days were pretty good in the late eighties, early nineties.

2394
02:00:28,920 --> 02:00:31,120
Speaker 1: It has never been like this. And my guess is

2395
02:00:31,600 --> 02:00:34,040
Speaker 1: you hear stories from people like this all of the

2396
02:00:34,120 --> 02:00:38,560
Speaker 1: freaking time around campus, around Bloomington, etc. So as a

2397
02:00:38,600 --> 02:00:41,120
Speaker 1: guy for kind of from the outside looking in, what's

2398
02:00:41,160 --> 02:00:43,560
Speaker 1: it like to hear from so many Indiana people just

2399
02:00:43,600 --> 02:00:46,320
Speaker 1: want to say thank you for doing this? What is

2400
02:00:46,360 --> 02:00:48,480
Speaker 1: it like kind of living life through that prism?

2401
02:00:48,560 --> 02:00:52,000
Speaker 11: Right now, man, we appreciate it. We take it all

2402
02:00:52,040 --> 02:00:56,800
Speaker 11: in because, like you said, like if it was that long,

2403
02:00:56,960 --> 02:01:01,160
Speaker 11: I wouldn't have known beforehand. But I just love the

2404
02:01:01,200 --> 02:01:04,280
Speaker 11: appreciation from the town. Bloomington is a great place to live,

2405
02:01:04,720 --> 02:01:06,920
Speaker 11: and the support is going crazy. I know it's always

2406
02:01:06,920 --> 02:01:09,840
Speaker 11: been a basketball school, but now that we've turned the

2407
02:01:09,880 --> 02:01:12,600
Speaker 11: tide of the football program, everyone is coming out and

2408
02:01:12,600 --> 02:01:14,160
Speaker 11: they're showing their love and support for us.

2409
02:01:14,200 --> 02:01:16,040
Speaker 5: So it's great to be a part of Again.

2410
02:01:16,400 --> 02:01:19,280
Speaker 1: It's been an amazing ride to watch. I can't I

2411
02:01:19,280 --> 02:01:20,960
Speaker 1: couldn't imagine what it'd be like to be a part

2412
02:01:20,960 --> 02:01:22,640
Speaker 1: of it, to be driving the roller coaster the way

2413
02:01:22,640 --> 02:01:25,640
Speaker 1: that you are, keep it climbing up. We appreciate your time.

2414
02:01:25,840 --> 02:01:27,720
Speaker 1: Good luck on Saturday against Wisconsin.

2415
02:01:28,040 --> 02:01:28,400
Speaker 5: Thank you.

2416
02:01:28,880 --> 02:01:31,560
Speaker 1: Really enjoyed my conversation with Kaylen Black. And again thanks

2417
02:01:31,560 --> 02:01:34,720
Speaker 1: to Greg Campbell, Jeff Keg the folks maya media relations

2418
02:01:35,120 --> 02:01:38,800
Speaker 1: making that happen so you could hear about this story again.

2419
02:01:39,320 --> 02:01:42,040
Speaker 1: This is one of the best stories right now in

2420
02:01:42,080 --> 02:01:47,280
Speaker 1: the American sports landscape. A program that was again had

2421
02:01:47,320 --> 02:01:50,400
Speaker 1: some high moments. Again, I was a kid during the

2422
02:01:50,480 --> 02:01:53,680
Speaker 1: late eighties early nineties period. We're going to bowl games

2423
02:01:54,040 --> 02:01:57,000
Speaker 1: were a regular thing. This seems about to make the

2424
02:01:57,000 --> 02:02:01,960
Speaker 1: college football Playoff for a second consecutive year, and again,

2425
02:02:02,480 --> 02:02:07,360
Speaker 1: barring something of a screw up of disastrous proportions, they're

2426
02:02:07,400 --> 02:02:09,600
Speaker 1: playing in the Big Ten championship game for the first

2427
02:02:09,640 --> 02:02:14,280
Speaker 1: time in their back yard. And we'll obviously talk more

2428
02:02:14,320 --> 02:02:17,120
Speaker 1: IU football tomorrow leading into the Wisconsin game, which you

2429
02:02:17,120 --> 02:02:19,840
Speaker 1: can hear right here on ninety three to five and one,

2430
02:02:20,120 --> 02:02:22,680
Speaker 1: seven five the fan back To wrap it up next,

2431
02:02:22,880 --> 02:02:25,480
Speaker 1: Greg Rayshaw filling in for j Query here on the fan.

2432
02:02:27,320 --> 02:02:30,320
Speaker 1: That wasn't a slow clap build up. That was a

2433
02:02:30,360 --> 02:02:34,520
Speaker 1: full on golf clap of appreciation for calling it back.

2434
02:02:34,640 --> 02:02:36,560
Speaker 1: Not just to play on words that I just made,

2435
02:02:36,600 --> 02:02:40,040
Speaker 1: but I requested Falco. He provided amadaas which is never

2436
02:02:40,120 --> 02:02:45,720
Speaker 1: a bad thing, but in honor of Jay Query's European excursion,

2437
02:02:46,320 --> 02:02:49,760
Speaker 1: what might be viewed as the number three hit again JMV.

2438
02:02:50,040 --> 02:02:51,880
Speaker 1: We'll try to cross talk with him at some point

2439
02:02:51,880 --> 02:02:55,240
Speaker 1: in time as he is, I'm sure enjoying an AMF

2440
02:02:55,280 --> 02:02:59,240
Speaker 1: as we speak at the Upstairs Pub in Bloomington. He'll

2441
02:02:59,240 --> 02:03:02,000
Speaker 1: be on the airway shortly, if not at three o'clock

2442
02:03:02,040 --> 02:03:04,720
Speaker 1: here on ninety three, five and one seven five the Fantasy.

2443
02:03:04,760 --> 02:03:06,160
Speaker 1: You know, we need a little v on a calling

2444
02:03:06,520 --> 02:03:08,520
Speaker 1: because that is where Jake is off to for the

2445
02:03:08,560 --> 02:03:12,520
Speaker 1: next several days. I hope he enjoys some well deserved downtime.

2446
02:03:13,040 --> 02:03:16,800
Speaker 1: You get me tomorrow, You get me on Tuesday. You

2447
02:03:16,880 --> 02:03:21,440

Speaker 1: Kyle Nnnripp will be on the program, and again the

2452
02:03:36,960 --> 02:03:41,200
Speaker 1: rule of thumb basically is, if Kyle and are at

2453
02:03:41,200 --> 02:03:44,120
Speaker 1: the same high school football game, you're at the right

2454
02:03:44,160 --> 02:03:48,120
Speaker 1: football game. I'll have Warren Central and Center Grove on

Speaker 1: Friday night on my d TV and IHSAATV dot Org.

2456
02:03:52,120 --> 02:03:55,520
Speaker 1: We'll see if that's where Kyle will be heading. Mark Minner,

2457
02:03:56,200 --> 02:03:58,240
Speaker 1: I Am not going to require that he is wearing

2458

Speaker 1: a sweater vest, but Mark be on the show the

2459

2463
02:04:14,360 --> 02:04:18,120
Speaker 1: Fuego is where you can find and I'm would hope

2464
02:04:18,400 --> 02:04:20,600
Speaker 1: that Mark has worked in some Spanish catch phrases in

2465
02:04:20,680 --> 02:04:22,960
Speaker 1: terms of some of his play calls so far on

2466

2468
02:04:28,360 --> 02:04:30,520

02:04:30,560 --> 02:04:30,720

2489
02:05:25,680 --> 02:05:29,280
Speaker 8: I can't think of a better time to be in Bloomington.

2490

Speaker 8: You got Senior Day coming up on Saturday against Wisconsin.

2491

2496
02:05:46,560 --> 02:05:49,919
Speaker 8: Brent Holverson. So, Greg, you're missing out if you're not here. Honestly,

2497
02:05:50,440 --> 02:05:52,520
Speaker 8: by the way, I talked to Ben Hallett. He said

2498
02:05:52,560 --> 02:05:54,600
Speaker 8: he might have a spot for you on next year's team,

2499
02:05:54,640 --> 02:05:56,920
Speaker 8: So start working that jump shot. I think I do

2500
02:05:57,000 --> 02:05:59,959
Speaker 8: have eligibility if I can get this whole Achilles inflamation

2501
02:06:00,080 --> 02:06:02,600
Speaker 8: and I'm good and I can guard. I'm not gonna

2502
02:06:02,600 --> 02:06:04,640
Speaker 8: guard my yard, but I'm a good step and a

2503
02:06:04,640 --> 02:06:07,040
Speaker 8: half defensively left and right. I mean, if at least

2504
02:06:07,080 --> 02:06:09,240
Speaker 8: for the moment, I can act like I'm I'm I'm

2505
02:06:09,280 --> 02:06:11,520
Speaker 8: like the Pacers, the other night against Utah, I can

2506
02:06:11,600 --> 02:06:14,200
Speaker 8: kind of act Greg like I want to play defense

2507
02:06:14,240 --> 02:06:15,680
Speaker 8: even though I don't won't.

2508
02:06:15,480 --> 02:06:18,280
Speaker 1: See Listen, here's the deal with the pressure style they play.

2509
02:06:18,680 --> 02:06:21,360
Speaker 1: They basically play a diamond in one and then drop

2510
02:06:21,440 --> 02:06:24,040
Speaker 1: back into a half court trap. All you've got to

2511
02:06:24,120 --> 02:06:27,360
Speaker 1: do is guard the guy in bounding the ball. Then

2512
02:06:27,440 --> 02:06:29,760
Speaker 1: you go over and you try to force that guy

2513
02:06:29,800 --> 02:06:32,480
Speaker 1: to the sideline. Once the ball gets in the half court,

2514
02:06:32,520 --> 02:06:35,160
Speaker 1: you just trail behind the play so you've only got

2515
02:06:35,160 --> 02:06:38,120
Speaker 1: to run about forty seven feet that way. And really

2516
02:06:38,160 --> 02:06:39,640
Speaker 1: you don't have to venture. You can be a three

2517
02:06:39,680 --> 02:06:41,360
Speaker 1: and D guy. You can just kind of hang in

2518
02:06:41,400 --> 02:06:44,480
Speaker 1: the baseline corner yell ball. Somebody will find you. And

2519
02:06:44,520 --> 02:06:46,440
Speaker 1: if you can knock down four or five threes a game,

2520
02:06:46,480 --> 02:06:48,720
Speaker 1: there's a scholarship waiting for it, IU inding next year.

2521
02:06:49,040 --> 02:06:51,840
Speaker 8: I have no there's zero question. I have confidence in

2522
02:06:51,880 --> 02:06:54,320
Speaker 8: doing that and no problem once a while, because you

2523
02:06:54,440 --> 02:06:56,880
Speaker 8: got to also understand being old and the way that

2524
02:06:56,920 --> 02:06:59,680
Speaker 8: I look, nobody is going to believe I can do

2525
02:06:59,760 --> 02:07:02,640
Speaker 8: any thing. Thus they won't guard me until I knocked

2526
02:07:02,640 --> 02:07:04,400
Speaker 8: down a couple on them. By that point in time, Greg,

2527
02:07:04,440 --> 02:07:05,320
Speaker 8: it's going to be too late.

2528
02:07:05,480 --> 02:07:08,040
Speaker 1: If I mean, if I have a team that takes

2529
02:07:08,120 --> 02:07:11,880
Speaker 1: forty five threes in a game, and the average player

2530
02:07:11,880 --> 02:07:15,120
Speaker 1: plays about twenty minutes in that game, how many threes

2531
02:07:15,160 --> 02:07:17,680
Speaker 1: could you fire up in a twenty minute and in

2532
02:07:17,720 --> 02:07:20,680
Speaker 1: twenty minutes a run playing for coach Holly Meg.

2533
02:07:20,800 --> 02:07:22,879
Speaker 8: Let me tell you, Greg my arm on my shoulders

2534
02:07:22,920 --> 02:07:25,360
Speaker 8: not getting tired, brother, I mean, it's not getting tired.

2535
02:07:25,440 --> 02:07:27,240
Speaker 3: It's all right. I mean, as long.

2536
02:07:27,120 --> 02:07:30,160
Speaker 8: As I can what's Bill Raffery say, organize my puppies.

2537
02:07:30,480 --> 02:07:33,320
Speaker 8: If I can get those things organized and pointed in

2538
02:07:33,320 --> 02:07:35,960
Speaker 8: the right direction, you know, in a comfort zone, it

2539
02:07:36,280 --> 02:07:38,080
Speaker 8: doesn't listen, that'd be easy.

2540
02:07:38,520 --> 02:07:40,240
Speaker 3: I don't know why anybody wouldnt want to play there

2541
02:07:40,280 --> 02:07:40,520
Speaker 3: for that.

2542
02:07:40,640 --> 02:07:43,120
Speaker 1: When it comes to rafits, kissing onions, everything else is

2543
02:07:43,120 --> 02:07:46,760
Speaker 1: just secondary. In terms of his verbosity, my guess would

2544
02:07:46,760 --> 02:07:50,040
Speaker 1: be Don Fisher might have some upstairs pub stories, just

2545
02:07:50,080 --> 02:07:51,440
Speaker 1: a couple of them over the years.

2546
02:07:51,560 --> 02:07:53,720
Speaker 8: Well, yeah, and he's got the Coaches Show coming up

2547
02:07:53,760 --> 02:07:55,680
Speaker 8: later off tonight, so he's going to slide by here

2548
02:07:55,760 --> 02:07:59,480
Speaker 8: before he goes and joins Kurtzignetti coming up later off today,

2549
02:07:59,520 --> 02:08:01,360
Speaker 8: So we'll get on. I think Zach Austerman is going

2550
02:08:01,400 --> 02:08:04,080
Speaker 8: to slide by here as well. Uh, and we've got

2551
02:08:04,120 --> 02:08:06,440
Speaker 8: a largenite bourbon locks and lunasuilte Keil the shots for

2552
02:08:06,480 --> 02:08:09,840
Speaker 8: a week number eleven. Hey, Greg, I have such incredible

2553
02:08:09,920 --> 02:08:12,440
Speaker 8: memories of this place too. I mean I go all

2554
02:08:12,480 --> 02:08:14,320
Speaker 8: the way back when it was just on the other

2555
02:08:14,400 --> 02:08:16,640
Speaker 8: side and was kind of an overflow area with the

2556
02:08:16,640 --> 02:08:20,840
Speaker 8: then bar Hooligans. I remember when Trent Green was celebrated

2557
02:08:20,880 --> 02:08:24,040
Speaker 8: inside Hooligan's Back of the day right here in Dunkirk Square.

2558
02:08:24,800 --> 02:08:26,200
Speaker 3: The memories are flooding.

2559
02:08:26,680 --> 02:08:28,880
Speaker 8: Uh, they should be foggy because most of the time,

2560
02:08:28,920 --> 02:08:31,160
Speaker 8: you know, probably the condition in which I was in.

2561
02:08:31,440 --> 02:08:33,600
Speaker 3: But the memories are flooding right now.

2562
02:08:33,680 --> 02:08:35,440
Speaker 1: Buddy, you got six minutes get ready for the show.
