We will have James Boyd join 184 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: us bright and early. At nine point thirty. We did 185 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: hear from Chris Pout yesterday. We will play some audio 186 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: from the Colts general manager and explaining a little bit 187 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: more of their thought process throughout the off season. It 188 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: sounds like the door is I guess a little open 189 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: to an Anthony Richardson return. I I you know, there's 190 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: probably an element of believe you know, I'll fully believe 191 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: it when I see it. 192 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 2: But we can hit on that. 193 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: But definitely defensive line and linebacker they had some comments 194 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: on so we often need to hit that today. 195 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely. Did you shower by the way, you look 196 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 4: very put together. 197 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 3: Come on, Mark, it's a teaching day. You have an 198 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 3: on vacation. 199 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: I forgot right, and you said, you know, hey, we 200 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: need to try and get kevin shirt off. 201 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 3: I don't think that's happening on a on. 202 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 4: A teach I means can't unbutton their shirt. 203 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: One more button? How about Mark, they're kind of pausing. 204 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 4: You look very That was the correct terminology. 205 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: Okay, I'm gonna now experience what it's like to be 206 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,839 Speaker 1: Ashley Dyt here for well, boy, for a second, I 207 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: can wait time show you what having my backpack for 208 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: you a little later on? Hell easy, now, I know 209 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 1: that you know, driving back sixty five you can stop 210 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 1: at a lot of those stores on the old side 211 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: of the highway there that aren't BUCkies. 212 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,320 Speaker 4: Well, we're still unpacking from spring break, and so I 213 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,719 Speaker 4: was going through some stuff, like, ah, I think I'll 214 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 4: bring this for the morning show tomorrow. 215 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: We will get to today, just a little bit more 216 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:02,719 Speaker 1: on Purdue and kind of putting a bow t eye 217 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: on that. I think at some point it's okay, the 218 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: portal does start what a week from today? If I 219 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,439 Speaker 1: believe that it's correct. I think it's literally the Tuesday 220 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 1: after the National title game? But what's next? And you know, 221 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: looking back on this season, and you know, we had 222 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: Rob Blackman on yesterday and you kind of asked him 223 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 1: if you look at those three Elite eight runs over 224 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: the last six or seven years, you know, which is 225 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,439 Speaker 1: the one that maybe stands out the most? 226 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 2: And having that sour taste. 227 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: He went a little sentimental, understandably with Larry Quisby and 228 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 1: his passing during that twenty nineteen year. But you know, 229 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: all three of them I think have a lot of 230 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 1: unique traits, you know, to them. And now it's going 231 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 1: to be another, you know, pretty big rebuild, probably the 232 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 1: biggest that Matt Painters had to endure. Albeit when you 233 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 1: look at, you know, some of these others, they did 234 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: lose a ton of minutes, so something we can kind 235 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 1: of go over throughout the show today. 236 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 4: Curious about Perdue fans thoughts on things too, because I 237 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 4: kind of put that out on Twitter after the game 238 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 4: on Saturday, kind of like, how will you remember this 239 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 4: era of Perdue basketball? Obviously you're disappointed about the way 240 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 4: Saturday's result turned out, but overall, when you reflect maybe 241 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 4: a year from now, five years from now, a decade 242 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 4: from now, are you gonna look back and say, like, man, 243 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 4: those are some fun times. Or you can say like, well, 244 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 4: we never got a national championship, because I would argue that, yes, 245 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 4: you didn't get a national championship. I also say this 246 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 4: is one more fluky championships to win because it is 247 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 4: single elimination and all that, so it's very hard to do. 248 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 4: We've seen sixteens upset ones all the time. Perdue was 249 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 4: on the hook for that before as well, so it's 250 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 4: hard to do. So are you is it championship or 251 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 4: bust into your mind? Or you say, well the Zach 252 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 4: e Dy Braden Smith errs those are some pretty good 253 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 4: times looking back up. 254 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: And there's one more thought I had just from the 255 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: game on Saturday, of like, Arizona is a wagon, right, 256 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: you've gotten win it all. I've got to win it 257 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: at all. I mean, they are a great, great team. 258 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: Is there any feeling of like, damn, I wish you 259 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:58,079 Speaker 1: would have gone down swinging with our fastball. Like when 260 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: you watch the game Saturday, they had a seven point 261 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 1: lead at halftime, and they were playing lineups in that 262 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: first half that looked like US three. Yeah. 263 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:06,479 Speaker 2: Hosting this show today. 264 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,559 Speaker 1: Daniel Jacob said, an Oscar Cluff are not supposed to 265 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 1: be out there together for extended periods of time, and 266 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 1: they were in the first half. You built a seven 267 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: point lead at halftime with Trey kaupman Rehn battling foul 268 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: trouble and Fletcher Lawyer having probably his quietest game in 269 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: over a month. And then the second half rolls around 270 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: and again we talked about with Rob yesterday, Boom Kaufman 271 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: Wrenn gets his third foul like right away, and it 272 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 1: just seemed like even though they still had a lead, 273 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: even though they had the first half that they did. 274 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 1: It's like I remember audibly saying to myself, Obleep, you 275 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: know this is where I feel like it's gonna turn. 276 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: It meets the road here, I get Arizona probably beats 277 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: Purdue what eight out of ten times something along those lines. 278 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:49,080 Speaker 1: But let's not forget what two weeks ago Purdue's beating 279 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: the team that's actually favored over Arizona on Saturday night 280 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: on a neutral Florida win the Big Ten title, a 281 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: game where Purdue led what virtually throughout in Michigan in 282 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 1: that Big Ten championship. So you know, any I haven't 283 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 1: really felt that from a lot of Purdue fans since Saturday. 284 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 1: Of like, damn, yes, we got hit with a freight 285 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: train in the second half, but I wish we would 286 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 1: have been able to throw our right hand at them 287 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 1: and not have to play. And again, some of that 288 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: is probably Arizona's doing, frankly, of they are so effective, 289 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 1: they're so big, they're so skilled. That Drake Hoffman ran, 290 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: although I'd say two of his first three fouls are 291 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: very just kind of self induced, almost some frustration fouls 292 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: out of him. 293 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:29,680 Speaker 2: So we get in perdue as the show moves along, 294 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:30,359 Speaker 2: and again. 295 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: We'll definitely hit Colts, probably the most we've done here 296 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: over the last couple of days. We have a final 297 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: four set in the women's brackets. We did see one 298 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: of the league proposals that we debated out there in Phoenix. 299 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 2: I get withdrawn by the Browns. We'll hit on that 300 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 2: and again. 301 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 1: Luke Meredith, head coach with Brayln Bullens there over at 302 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 1: Greenfield Central. He'll join us at eight, Tom Crean at nine, 303 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: James Boyd at nine to thirty. It's a Hodgepod show today, 304 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,199 Speaker 1: closing out the month of March. Kevin Bellen, Mark Dychton, 305 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: Caleb Zuver right here on ninety three five, one oh 306 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:02,199 Speaker 1: seven five the. 307 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 3: Fan all right. 308 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: Coming up at eight o'clock. Luke Meredith, the head coach 309 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 1: of Brayln Mullins at high school. He will join us 310 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:12,079 Speaker 1: to talk about all the heroics from Sunday and I 311 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: look back on his high school career. Tom Crean at nine, 312 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 1: Mark Dyden, Let's begin with the NCAA Women's Final four. 313 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 2: It's the same grouping as last year. 314 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: It'll be Yukon, South Carolina, UCLA and Texas. South Carolina 315 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: and Texas both rolled last night. The margins in these 316 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 1: elite eight games thirty six, twenty six, eighteen, and twelve. 317 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 1: I think we're used to chalking the women's bracket. I 318 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 1: was surprised this is only the first time. 319 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:43,320 Speaker 2: I think they said. 320 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: In eight years that all the one seeds have made 321 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: it to the final four. I would have ventured to 322 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 1: guess you would have had more of that. 323 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, that is surprising. We thought it happened more frequently 324 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 4: and more often. 325 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, so absolute chalk there we got winning all. 326 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 1: I assume it's undefeated Yukon right. 327 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I had South Carolina win, but I don't think. 328 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. I may have obviously played in the 329 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: tougher conference here building up to it, but that'll be 330 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 1: the women's Final four coming up this weekend. Of course, 331 00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: we've got a lot of activities here, really starting I 332 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: would say Thursdays when things start to pick up here 333 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,439 Speaker 1: in the city.

Pacers will practice today, they are in Chicago, 340 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 1: coming up tomorrow. 341 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 2: They're on the road. 342 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: I believe it's all week here Charlotte in Cleveland after that, 343 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: speaking of the Bulls, just a really unfortunate story right 344 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: now involving J andn Ivy. 345 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 3: Mark. 346 00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,040 Speaker 1: I'll be honest, I have not watched all of the 347 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: J and Ivy. I guess social media clips that. 348 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 2: Have gone viral. 349 00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: From what I've read, they've involved some homophobic and racial yeah, 350 00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 1: I guess slurs tones. I again, I don't know exactly 351 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: the best way to describe all that waived by the 352 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: Chicago Bulls yesterday. 353 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 2: Conduct detrimental to the team, they said. 354 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: And I think he had admitted, you know, a couple 355 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: of months ago, again just an awful injury for him 356 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: and breaking his leg last year and the rehab and 357 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: going through all of that. He had been very public 358 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: about his mental health and how much was being impacted 359 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: by that, And clearly this is at another level. So 360 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 1: hope J. N Ivy can find the help that is needed, 361 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: not only for his physical health, but probably most importantly 362 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: for his mental health. Thought a lot about his mom, 363 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: you know, who just wrapped up her season with Notre Dame, 364 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: and probably almost a blessing in a way because they 365 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 1: are super close. For those not super familiar with J 366 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 1: and Ivy and his mom, Neil Ivy, the women's head 367 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: coach in Notre Dame there. So yeah, I just hope 368 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: that he can figure some things out and most importantly, 369 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: you know, on the non basketball side of it, but 370 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: also get back on the floor eventually. Yeah. 371 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 2: No easy transition. But we moved to baseball. 372 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 4: The Reds moved to three and once he look, I'm 373 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 4: being nice, Red shout out the Pirates two nothing. Yesterday 374 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 4: Cobbs knocked off the Angels all around, seven to their 375 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 4: White Sox get their first win in the season, nine 376 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 4: to four win over the Marlins. Brewers to get their 377 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 4: first loss of the season against the Rays three to two, 378 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 4: Cardinals fall to the Mets four to two, and then 379 00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 4: the Indianapolis Indians. They get back to work looking for 380 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 4: their first win of the season. They visit the Columbus 381 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 4: Clippers tonight and that's a first pitch of six fifteen. 382 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: Was there an ulterior motive and you mentioned the Reds. 383 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 4: No, just be nice, just be nice, nice three and 384 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 4: one start for your guys World Series or bust. 385 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 1: I assume there's a little bit of that off. 386 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 4: To keep my I have Elie Dela Cruz on one 387 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 4: of my fantasy teams. By the way, accidentally, I accidentally 388 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 4: Fantasy baseball. You're a second, he said one of Well, okay, 389 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 4: I'm in one that have been in since college for 390 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 4: like father of three. I know that one takes forever. 391 00:16:58,360 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 4: We do an auction league, and I'm not kidding. I 392 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 4: was in Florida first day vacation. It was four and 393 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 4: a half hours long. Sitting on the phone. I like, 394 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 4: is that done yet? I was like, I was still 395 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,920 Speaker 4: with the four and a half hours. 396 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 1: But no, the other one as well, just say, I'm 397 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:12,439 Speaker 1: gonna go play golf with myself and then you know, 398 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: I'll do this fantasy draft at the same I was 399 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 1: in line at the tron ride at Magic Kingdom with 400 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: my older two and I just like, we're standing in 401 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: line forever, like this is going forever, reaching my pocket 402 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,119 Speaker 1: and I did not do this on purpose. 403 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 4: I don't know how my my pocket dialed this. I 404 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 4: was in a fantasy draft somehow. I signed up on 405 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,399 Speaker 4: my phone and I'm in the middle of a draft, like, 406 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 4: you have the third pick. I'm like, what the hell? 407 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 4: So I picked up random I had Bobby Witt Junior. 408 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 7: I like, what in the world. 409 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,439 Speaker 4: I don't know how I did it. I did it 410 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 4: so I'm in a random fantasy baseball. I think that's 411 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 4: a second time that's happened to. 412 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 1: You're a sick individual. 413 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 4: I don't know how my phone does that. How did 414 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 4: it open the Yahoo appen? How did it say enter 415 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 4: draft or join league? 416 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. We'll get some Colts content here coming up. 417 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: On the other side, James Boyd will join us at 418 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 1: nine to thirty. He's out there at the league meetings 419 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,920 Speaker 1: in Arizona. I did see, you know. NFL wise, I 420 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: don't think there's a lot of like rule change debate proposals. 421 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 1: I know the eighteen game schedule course has been hot 422 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 1: button topic. I did see yesterday the Cleveland Browns withdrew 423 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 1: their proposal on trying to extend the ability to trade 424 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 1: draft picks from three years to five years. I think 425 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,360 Speaker 1: we're used to this rule in the NBA. Honestly, it's 426 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: part of the reason why the Pacers are able to 427 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: do the Avitza Zubats trade. You were able to trade 428 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,439 Speaker 1: draft picks out in the future. I just assume the 429 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 1: NFL would do this to me. All it does is 430 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 1: add entertainment value. Doesn't it lead to more trades. 431 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:37,679 Speaker 2: More trades, more drama. 432 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 4: They're gonna add an eighteenth game as well, so they're like, yeah, whatever, Yeah, 433 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 4: why not. My concern is just gms that probably won't 434 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,479 Speaker 4: be there for the five years are going to make 435 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 4: decisions that will have long lasting ramifications for the franchise. 436 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 2: So that's the thing that concerns me as a fan. 437 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 1: So you think it's more of the owner saying, I. 438 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 4: Mean, you've got to be pretty confident that guy if 439 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 4: you're willing the shipoff picks five years from well, I. 440 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 2: Think that's a debate. 441 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: It would add more because the one thing the NFL 442 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:09,880 Speaker 1: probably lacks is the amount of trades that you see 443 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 1: in other professional sports leagues. I mean, honestly, I think 444 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: one of the bigger reasons why people do gravitate so 445 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: much the NBA is the damn trade machine and all 446 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:19,680 Speaker 1: the things you can you know, think about and whip 447 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:20,639 Speaker 1: up here, where's the NFL. 448 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:21,679 Speaker 2: We just don't get that right. 449 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, I guess you know, from ownership standpoint, 450 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 1: you'd have some hesitancy from your team building, but also 451 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 1: if you want to dangle the entertainment value aspect to it, 452 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 1: that would have been there. So again, James Wygn and 453 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: join us coming up here in the nine o'clock hour. 454 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:39,440 Speaker 1: We will hit on I know he had some takeaways 455 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: from his conversation with Chris Ballard will hit on some 456 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 1: of those on the other side can continue to look 457 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: back on Purdue and their season coming to a close. 458 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 1: I don't know if you have caught it, Mark, but 459 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:54,159 Speaker 1: I'd say over the last week the Indiana Purdue venom 460 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: has been hot and heavy in the YouTube. 461 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:58,640 Speaker 3: Chat, been ratcheted up a little bit. 462 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 4: People in the probably not enjoying the spring breaks, so 463 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 4: they're getting their their venom out here. 464 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,640 Speaker 1: I do have a question for you. Do you count 465 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: you were born in what year? Eighty five? 466 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 3: Tail end? 467 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 1: Okay, I was born in eighty nine. Notre Dame won 468 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: a football national title in eighty nine. Ironically, your bears 469 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl in eighty five, right, huh? Do 470 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,959 Speaker 1: you count that in your fandom? No, I was barely 471 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 1: a month old. 472 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 4: My parents claim I was in a like Rocker or whatever, 473 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 4: and my dad and uncles were watching the game, and 474 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 4: I'm like, I have no recollection of this. I've seen 475 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 4: the videos like I'm like burn DVDs the kids even 476 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 4: know what burn DVDs are these days.

Hard to do get into what I think 512 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 1: should be just two tremendous, tremendous games coming up inside 513 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: of Lucas Oil Stadium. 514 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 4: Open and also just opening that song plays before two 515 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 4: forty five in the morning. 516 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 3: We got can we get some sleep here? 517 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:20,400 Speaker 2: I gotta go to bad. 518 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 1: I'm telling you man. There we were at Revel, I 519 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: was like, what in the world. Once Floor Rider came 520 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: out in Jalen Rose Jersey, I was like, Uh, everything's fine. 521 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 3: Play my house. 522 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 1: Everything's fine, my house exactly. That was that was the 523 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: go to back then with mister Ryder there, it is 524 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: Kevin Bowen, it's Mark Dyton, it's Caleb Zuver. You've got 525 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: the Louisville Bats roster in the month of September getting 526 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 1: the call up. 527 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,119 Speaker 2: That's what you've got. Get strong prospects weekend. 528 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 1: On the show today, you said the dobles foot boom. 529 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 3: I was like, are we tanking? Is that? Is that 530 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 3: what this show's down today? 531 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:52,159 Speaker 9: Like? 532 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 1: I don't know if I sho make the analogy to 533 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 1: like pacer players that you were necessarily getting in the lineup, 534 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 1: But I'm sure if you've been to a pacer game 535 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: this year, you've looked out on the floor times been like, 536 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 1: who is that? I think that's kind of what people 537 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 1: maybe are. Let me flip through the game day may 538 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: oh that's okay. Yeah, when they're flipping up their dial 539 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 1: flat turned on the radio this morning, you might get 540 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 1: some of that. Tom Crean at nine, James Boyd at 541 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 1: nine thirty, he's out there at the League of meetings 542 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 1: in Arizona. We did to hear from Chris Ballard yesterday. 543 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say anything to to eyebrow raising from him, 544 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: it does sound like Mark The thought this offseason was 545 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: Alec Pierce, Daniel Jones, get that done, take a swing 546 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: for Trey Hendrickson. Once that did not come to fruition, 547 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 1: it was we're gonna pivot all the way to depth. 548 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 1: We're gonna go a little bit more quantity over high 549 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 1: end quality. 550 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 2: We're going to try to rely on the draft. 551 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: Again, that's kind of been my thought, but those were 552 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 1: pretty much Ballard's words yesterday. 553 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 4: Do you think that's kind of faulty logic that we 554 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 4: were gonna go swing, Like I feel like if when fans. 555 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 1: Hear that, they say, well, we were gonna get Trey 556 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 1: Hendrickson and then he went to the Ravens. 557 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 4: So now instead of pivoting and putting that money towards 558 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 4: another high end guy, we're gonna put our hands in 559 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 4: the pockets and just try to get some depth pieces instead, 560 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 4: and then we'll just rely on our draft, which, by 561 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 4: the way, we don't have a first round draft. 562 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 1: Pick for Yeah, I mean, if we go back several weeks, 563 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: because I believe it was a Tuesday morning when all 564 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 1: of a sudden you had the Ravens and the Max 565 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: Crosby thing fall through, and I think I said to 566 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: you guys, like my first thought was Obleep, this is 567 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: going to me and the Ravens are going to pursue 568 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,479 Speaker 1: Trey Hendrickson, and I think this could very well impact 569 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: the Cult not getting and that's exactly how ended up 570 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: playing out. But the conversation for me more in guards 571 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: to Trey Henderson because that was not a slam dunk 572 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: for every Cult fan out there, right. You know, there 573 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,120 Speaker 1: are something said, hey, thirty one year old coming off 574 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 1: hip surgery. I don't know if I want to dip 575 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: my toes into that water. My approach is more of 576 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: this is the issue when you have missed so much 577 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 1: at defensive end in the draft. And you know, again 578 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 1: when we had crisp Out on the combine, he got 579 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 1: a little pissy. I thought with that question there, you know, 580 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,600 Speaker 1: we could go over the evidence if he would like 581 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 1: even more. I mean, I think it's pretty clear he 582 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: is missed and missed significantly when it comes to the 583 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 1: draft at that spot. That to me is more the 584 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: root of the issue because like when you get into 585 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 1: the free agency period, well, the problem with free agency 586 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:27,159 Speaker 1: is all you need is one team to screw your plants. 587 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 2: And that's what happened. 588 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, Baltimore just screwed what the Colts were trying to do. 589 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,439 Speaker 1: The Colts waited one day into free agency, if you 590 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:37,360 Speaker 1: remember Mark on that Monday, we saw a couple pass rushers, 591 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: younger guys sign elsewhere, Jalen Phillips, Adafa Oway, Boy Mafe. 592 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 1: Some of these guys signed other places, whereas Hendrickson was 593 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 1: kind of the one that waited. And then all of 594 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: a sudden that leads to all your eggs are in 595 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 1: that basket. And when that fell through, now here you 596 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 1: are with an off season that really looks a lot 597 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 1: like previous Colts off seasons under ballad In it's more 598 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,399 Speaker 1: of the we'll play the quantity game, we'll play the 599 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: second and third wave of free agency game, and we'll 600 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 1: try to build a roster that way. 601 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, And I just think that's a little bit silly 602 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 4: considering you've seen past experiences how that's worked out as 603 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 4: far as you know, having depth pieces but not having 604 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 4: those high end talent guys. And then you go into 605 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 4: the season and I feel like every training camp we 606 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 4: always say there's at least one position here that is 607 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 4: of concern heading into training camp, and for the most part, 608 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 4: when we come out of the training camp, like yep, 609 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,920 Speaker 4: that is still a concern. I could tell you there's 610 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 4: a couple of issues of concern heading into this season already. 611 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 4: So I don't know if the draft can fully fix 612 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,679 Speaker 4: everything or not, but there are a couple issues Linebacker, 613 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 4: edge rusher once again are those that we've been told 614 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 4: that these are deep pieces in the draft. But will 615 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 4: the Colts be able to actually find and identify those 616 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 4: quality players in the draft with outday first round pick 617 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:52,720 Speaker 4: remains to be seen. 618 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 1: What did you hear on the Anthony Richardson front? 619 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,640 Speaker 2: I know that's kind of a. 620 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 1: Headline that ex it out of the ballad and I 621 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: guess even the Carly Ursay Gordon conversation there. 622 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 2: But did you hear door open? Sure sounded like it. 623 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:11,239 Speaker 4: He was on with Kay Adams yesterday and discussed that 624 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,639 Speaker 4: and Caleb. I don't know if we have that audio ready, 625 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:15,439 Speaker 4: but let's just give that a listen. Then we'll give 626 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 4: our reaction to what he said about Anthony Richardson future 627 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 4: with Indianapolis. 628 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 9: You've invested in Anthony Richardson last week for you a 629 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:24,679 Speaker 9: potential trade on the table. 630 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll see. 631 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 10: I mean, you know, I got where his agent, who's 632 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 10: done a really good job with Anthony and where Anthony's 633 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 10: you know, mindset is, nothing's materialized at this point, so 634 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 10: we'll see what happens going forward. 635 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 1: And proud of Anthony. 636 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 10: He's had some bad luck unfortunately, but I'm proud of me. 637 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 10: Like Anthony's a good like he's a good young man, 638 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 10: he's a good teammate. Like when he didn't win the job, 639 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:48,959 Speaker 10: that was kind of one of the cool things that 640 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 10: came out of it, Like watching him learn and be 641 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,639 Speaker 10: an unbelievable teammate, you know, was that was fun to watch. 642 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 4: So that tells me from what I hear he's trying 643 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 4: to sell Anthony Richardson to other teams, say, doors wide open. 644 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: We haven't heard anything yet. 645 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 4: He's a great teammate, great locker room guy, come get 646 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:09,400 Speaker 4: them if you want. 647 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, I still Don't's how I thinks he'll be back 648 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 1: with the Colts this year. Mark. Now, my thought in 649 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 1: regards to Richardson this whole time has been this, the 650 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 1: Colts need to squeeze every penny. 651 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 2: Out of their cap space. 652 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: So by trading Richardson, you would have gotten five million 653 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 1: or you would get five million, you know, off your 654 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: cap by doing that, and you know, that just adds 655 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 1: up the Zion Franklin trade, the Michael Pittman Junior trade. 656 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 1: You know, again, there are a lot of cap saving 657 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: moves the Colts have already made, and they could actually 658 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: make a few more. 659 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 2: But now we sit here on March thirty. 660 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 1: First, and I'm like, the Colts don't need cap space. 661 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 1: They've got nearly thirty million rights like that. It's more 662 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: aware are they going to spend it? 663 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 7: Not? 664 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: You know, how are they going to spend it? So 665 00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 1: my line of thinking has shifted a bit. You know, 666 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 1: when we were at Quarteta Coliseum for the Horizon League 667 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: semi finals on that Monday that was the start of 668 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 1: free agency, it was kind of like, all right, these 669 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: are the moves I think they will do. You know, 670 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: the Zion Franklin trade had just happened, you know, Pittman 671 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: Junior occurred later that day. 672 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 2: To me, those were rather obvious. 673 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 1: This is one where I'm actually I would be just 674 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: fine if they kept Richardson. 675 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 2: I actually won't be surprised if they do keep him. 676 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: At this point, I don't know if I'm there, I 677 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: would be fine though, keeping him. Like, to me, I 678 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 1: don't think it's that high maintenance to have him be 679 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 1: the backup, and it's like hanging like I don't view 680 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 1: him as like like a hanging cloud over Daniel Jones 681 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 1: by any means, like when Daniel Jones is healthy, he's 682 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: a starter. 683 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 3: I don't. 684 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 1: I don't. 685 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 4: I also don't think that he's gonna out unless he 686 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 4: outright like demands, like goes public ands like I want 687 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 4: out of here, get me, get me out of Indie. 688 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 4: I don't know if that's necessarily going to happen where 689 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 4: he's actually like banging the table like get me out 690 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 4: of here, this, and that. 691 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 2: They could say, you know, we haven't seen the. 692 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 3: Market for him. 693 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 2: I don't. 694 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna out regularly release him. Do 695 00:29:57,480 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: you see that as a possibility. I don't. 696 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. 697 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: I mean again, do you need the cap saving, but 698 00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: do you also want to just do right by him 699 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,040 Speaker 1: and say, fine, go we can't find a trade partner 700 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: for you. 701 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 2: So here you have thirty one other teams to choose from. Now, 702 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 2: if Daniel Jones and misses a month next. 703 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 6: Season, I was gonna say this, Kevin, like the longer 704 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 6: this goes and the more info they're. 705 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 3: Getting on Daniel Jones' recovery. 706 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 6: Don't you think that's something where it's like, hey, if 707 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 6: he we know, he's probably definitely not going to be 708 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,600 Speaker 6: ready for week one, Like that's more of a chance 709 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 6: to keep Anthony around. 710 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm not reading that much into it, Caleb, 711 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: I hear you out. But like when I say Daniel 712 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 1: Jones misses a month, what if he misses a month 713 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 1: in the middle of the season, I mean, unfortunately Daniel 714 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 1: Jones's injury, you know, Carli arse Gordon is the quote 715 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,240 Speaker 1: of well, we paused the movie from last season and 716 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: we feel like we need to start in the movie again. Well, 717 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 1: if you want to continue the movie analogy, the problem 718 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 1: is we don't get to the final scene with Daniel 719 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 1: Jones a whole lot in his NFL career. That's just 720 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: the reality of his availability and some inconsistent play. 721 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 4: So also plenty in Netflix and Chill movies that I 722 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 4: have not picked up and watched the second half of 723 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 4: Pause them and then you never pick them back up. 724 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 2: I'm saying, sounds like you're getting to some different ratings. 725 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 3: I'm just saying that that night movie. 726 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 4: Sometimes you pause a movie and then you never see 727 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 4: how it finishes. Boy, nice problem to have, and they like, 728 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 4: I'm just saying that, you know, do. 729 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 1: You think if we did a poll Daniel Jones misses 730 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: a month of the season, would you rather see Anthony 731 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 1: Richardson start or Riley Leonard start? 732 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 2: What do you think the answer would be? And what 733 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 2: would be the percentages? 734 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 4: Because there are still some ar backers out there, but 735 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 4: there are a lot of people that are I will 736 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 4: say they are also done with richards I would also 737 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 4: say that those people are the vocal minority, So I 738 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 4: would say more people would push for Riley Leonard because 739 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 4: it is a greater unknown as far as what they 740 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 4: have in him. They've had, They've seen so little Riley 741 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 4: Leonard that they would be like, you know what, let's 742 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 4: give the kid a spin. 743 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 2: Let's see what we have going forward. 744 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 1: And what they did see was he played pretty all 745 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 1: right in that Texans game most recently. So I think 746 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: it maybe would be like a sixty forty, sixty five, 747 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: thirty five Riley, and I think that's the route the 748 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 1: Colts will go. I think they when you know, offseason 749 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 1: program opens up on April twentieth, when they get out 750 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 1: there for OTA's, which again OTA's is the eleven on 751 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 1: eleven period of the spring. 752 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 2: When they get out there in late May. 753 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 1: For that, I assume it will be Riley Lennard taking 754 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: those starting reps as Daniel Jones continues to rehab. But 755 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 1: there is a part of me that's like, is it 756 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 1: the end of the world if you had Anthony Richardson 757 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 1: on your roster? To me, he's not this just you know, 758 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,719 Speaker 1: crazy Dan Hurley type of distraction or you know, however 759 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 1: you want to equate him. By the way, was that 760 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,520 Speaker 1: Dan Hurley is the headbut video of the ref and 761 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: the headbutt's too much of a term. Is that is 762 00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 1: the nose? The nose real or real? I thought his 763 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 1: ai too, but I think that's real. Yeah, he was 764 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 1: a psychopath he always is, but awesome for college basketball. 765 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: Like I like him much more than I like Mick 766 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 1: Cronin because Dan Hurley backs like Nick Cronin just bitches 767 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 1: and moans about everything. Dan Hurley, he's a psycho. He's 768 00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: a basketball psychopath. We all had that friend of the 769 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 1: are that all of a sudden starts looking like that 770 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: at about before the chain smokers come on at three, 771 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 1: and you know, he starts looking like I mean, he 772 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: had the one sleep.

League note from yesterday Again, we had 817 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 1: the NFC coaches chat with the media yesterday. 818 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 2: I believe it's AFC coaches. 819 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:01,280 Speaker 1: This morning out there, I saw a report that Kevin O'Connell, 820 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 1: the Vikings head coach, mentioned Jonathan Gernard, who was a 821 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 1: rumored trade candidate pass rusher, very accomplished pass rusher in 822 00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 1: his NFL career, especially the Texans, that thought was he 823 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:13,960 Speaker 1: would be on the trade market. I think there are 824 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 1: a lot of Colts fans that believed, hey, you know, 825 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 1: maybe this is a route they go. They take one 826 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 1: of those Day two picks, your secondary third rounder, and 827 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:22,880 Speaker 1: that's how you acquire, you know, more of a bona 828 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:26,439 Speaker 1: fide accomplish pass rusher. Kevin O'Connell mentioned that he thinks 829 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 1: it's likely Jonathan Garnard will stay with the team. So 830 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 1: does that take away, you know, one of the options 831 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 1: that you have there by the way, that seems. 832 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 4: To be one of the bigger names still like floated 833 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 4: out there that yeah, you would be like, okay, that'd 834 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:43,520 Speaker 4: be all right. But if he's not going to go anywhere, 835 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 4: then it's another you know, misfire there. 836 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 1: JT tuoymollow out sounds like we're calling him jalen to now, okay, 837 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 1: and he might be your starter if you were going 838 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: to go play football game tomorrow opposite laut too lots. 839 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:58,080 Speaker 4: Well, then you better figure out how to pronounce his 840 00:35:58,160 --> 00:35:59,839 Speaker 4: name in which way nickname he's going with if you're 841 00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:01,920 Speaker 4: a Taylor or something like that. By the way, did 842 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 4: you see the NFL head Coaches photo? Do you like 843 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 4: those those annual photos? 844 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 1: Yeah? 845 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 2: And I love when Big Captain Barstool writes the story 846 00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 2: on it. 847 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 1: Uh huh, reviews everybody what you think of Shane Stikeen's 848 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,759 Speaker 1: fit there blue pole. Seems like everyone's in the blue. 849 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 1: Everybody brought blue for the most parts, disrespectful. Put Andy 850 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:20,720 Speaker 1: Reid in the back row. I laughed at Aaron Glenn. 851 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:22,760 Speaker 1: I believe he was the only one wearing his team gear. 852 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,160 Speaker 1: A lot of people commented that that was to remind 853 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:26,479 Speaker 1: everybody that he still has a job. 854 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 4: Robert Salo looked like his stuff got lost in the 855 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 4: lost at baggage claim. 856 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:31,280 Speaker 3: He's in like a white hoodie. 857 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 1: How was Andy Reiding out front center? I know, not 858 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:34,879 Speaker 1: a Belichick anymore. We don't have Carol. 859 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 2: We gotta have Andy Reid in the middle. 860 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:37,799 Speaker 3: Yeah. 861 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 2: I don't know how he got in the back. I 862 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 2: know his stykeen next to it was it. 863 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 4: Demiko ryans, uh, yeah, I'm zooming in now, looks like yeah. 864 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,320 Speaker 4: And then Sean Payton's in front of him, Mike Rabel 865 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:47,320 Speaker 4: in front of him. 866 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:50,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. Rabel just looked like a straight out Did you 867 00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 1: see the video of Rable at the Boston College Pro Day? 868 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:52,799 Speaker 3: I did not. 869 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, he. 870 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 3: Got into it. He started running drills and. 871 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,040 Speaker 1: It looked like he was ready for the Oklahoma drill. 872 00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:00,799 Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy's wearing an outfit, looks like he's like going 873 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:03,080 Speaker 1: to a father daughter dance. I'll go over a few 874 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:06,880 Speaker 1: more of those James Boyd takeaways from out there coming 875 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 1: up here in a little bit. 876 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:10,760 Speaker 2: I know you had some predue thoughts. Mark. We chatted 877 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:11,759 Speaker 2: with Rob Blackman. 878 00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 1: Yesterday and kind of putting a bow tie on things 879 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,240 Speaker 1: for the Boilers. But you know, in terms of how 880 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 1: this season is viewed by the perdue faithful. 881 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, so you know, Saturday obviously did not go the 882 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 4: way the Boilermakers had hoped for or their fan base. 883 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 4: But I was just like, you know, what, what is 884 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:30,759 Speaker 4: the overall vibe from Purdue fans? You take take twenty 885 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:32,759 Speaker 4: four hours, take forty eight hours, take whatever you need 886 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 4: to kind of digest the result of Saturday. But how 887 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 4: will you look back on this era of Perdue basketball? 888 00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:40,879 Speaker 4: We had the Zach Edy era, of the Braden Smith era, 889 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:44,400 Speaker 4: got to a national championship, didn't win. It had some 890 00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 4: Elite eight appearances all that, you also had some you know, clunkers, 891 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:51,759 Speaker 4: some early exits against Saint Peter's and whatnot. How do 892 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 4: you handle this Purdue era? Is it a missed opportunity 893 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 4: situation where you had some great senior class here that 894 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 4: just fell short. Zach Edy was a generational guy in 895 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 4: college basketball. How do you view this time in Purdue basketball? 896 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 4: Are you gonna look at it fondly in five ten 897 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:12,359 Speaker 4: years for now? Or are you gonna say we had 898 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 4: all the talent talent, we had all the talent, we 899 00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:16,360 Speaker 4: missed it. We didn't get a championship, No banner to 900 00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 4: hang up in Mackie. How are you going to view this? 901 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:24,279 Speaker 4: I think it's a success. Most college basketball programs would 902 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 4: love to have the success that they had. It is 903 00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,319 Speaker 4: very hard to win a national championship. Again, it is 904 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 4: a very flukey way. It's a single elimination. We see 905 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,279 Speaker 4: sixteens upset ones these days, so there is no like 906 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 4: best teams are always making it to the national championship team. 907 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,440 Speaker 4: There's lots of upsets all the time. So Purdue was 908 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 4: on the other hand of that for once in a while. 909 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:46,080 Speaker 4: So how would you view that It's a flukey tournament 910 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 4: you hang the banners as far as all the elite 911 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:51,879 Speaker 4: aid appearances and final fours and whatnot, or is a 912 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:53,240 Speaker 4: missed opportunity situation? 913 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 3: I'm curious your thoughts too. 914 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think, you know, I think it's fair to 915 00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 1: call it a missed opportunity while also acknowledging, you know, 916 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:06,479 Speaker 1: ninety nine point five percent of programs would have taken 917 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 1: what Purdue has done over the last four years and 918 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 1: not even bad an eye at it. You know, when 919 00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:14,319 Speaker 1: you look at it from an individual sports standpoint, it's 920 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 1: got a little bit of like the Phil Mickelson runner 921 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 1: up feeling majors. Uh. You know, I brought up Reggie 922 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:23,600 Speaker 1: Miller yesterday with the Pacers. You know, you you mentioned 923 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:24,960 Speaker 1: this in the first segment of the show. 924 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 3: Mark. 925 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: We had a few Purdue fans chime in on the 926 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 1: text line, Adam goes a great ride but still had 927 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 1: marginal success in the attorney. Given the regular season success, 928 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 1: it's Funny how in a way you label marginal success 929 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:43,720 Speaker 1: for Purdue in the tournament. In the last three years, 930 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:49,120 Speaker 1: Purdue has won ten NCAA tournament games. Ten Yeah, do 931 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,280 Speaker 1: we want to play this game again? How many programs 932 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:55,560 Speaker 1: won ten nca tournament games the last three years? How 933 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:57,760 Speaker 1: many teams have been to three straight Sweet sixteenth? 934 00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 7: Like it? 935 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 1: Just you know, you can debate this till the cows 936 00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 1: come home. Of only thing that matters the championship, that's it. 937 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:06,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I had family thing that matters. 938 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 4: Fans say, I don't care what they do in the 939 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:12,239 Speaker 4: regular season. It's all what happens in March. That was 940 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 4: the standard heading into this season. That's a wild way 941 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:17,759 Speaker 4: to live that You're just like, I can't even. 942 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 1: You know again, I'm speaking from a Notre Dame football 943 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:22,000 Speaker 1: fan of like, the more removed I've gotten from that 944 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,880 Speaker 1: national title game against Ohio State, do I view it 945 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 1: again as a missed opportunity? Sure, you're playing for national championship, 946 00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 1: here's sixty minutes away, But also, did I not get 947 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:31,640 Speaker 1: a ton out of them beating Penn State in the 948 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 1: Orange Bowl? Was the win over Georgia and the Sugar 949 00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:37,880 Speaker 1: Bowl not incredible? Was you know, beating Indiana in the 950 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:40,840 Speaker 1: first home playoff game not an incredible atmosphere, and I 951 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 1: was very lucky to be at like all I felt 952 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:45,880 Speaker 1: all of that. The Purdue fans not feel something when 953 00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:47,880 Speaker 1: Tray Coff and Ren tipped it in? Do they not 954 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:51,640 Speaker 1: feel something when they beat Michigan in the Big Ten tournament? 955 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:53,320 Speaker 2: So like that's. 956 00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:55,680 Speaker 1: Where I can't just live in this world of like 957 00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:58,880 Speaker 1: it has got to be cutting down the next championship 958 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 1: or both first Monday in April. 959 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:01,839 Speaker 2: But it is funny because we had a few people 960 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 2: reach out yesterday. 961 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,440 Speaker 1: And I think this is the uber minority, but I 962 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 1: will mention it. There are a few are like if 963 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 1: this was the NFL, would we view Matt Pain or 964 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:15,480 Speaker 1: how the Steelers just viewed Mike Tomlin, How the Ravens 965 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 1: just viewed John Harbal, you know, would we view it 966 00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 1: in that light? 967 00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:22,399 Speaker 2: It is an interesting thought. 968 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:24,840 Speaker 1: Again, I think college sports are different, to be clear, 969 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:29,080 Speaker 1: but like if this was a professional sports situation, you 970 00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: probably would get I don't know if owners would necessarily 971 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 1: be as antsy, but I mean we do see very accomplished. 972 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:39,960 Speaker 1: Had coaches fired for not getting over the home to 973 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,440 Speaker 1: steal the Mike Woodson phrase, Yeah, I. 974 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:46,239 Speaker 4: Had some comments. Jake had said, not the guy. At noon, 975 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 4: Jake had said, grateful to watch this run the team 976 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,680 Speaker 4: has made. They gave me some great memories these last 977 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:53,680 Speaker 4: four years. Disappointed for them that they didn't reach the 978 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 4: goals they laid out. There's more to life than championships. 979 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:57,799 Speaker 4: Our guys came to stay and play for the front 980 00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:58,320 Speaker 4: of the jersey. 981 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,440 Speaker 1: It seems like a very mature response. Mm hmm. Kyle here, 982 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:03,400 Speaker 1: a perdue fan, obviously wish they could have won it 983 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:05,120 Speaker 1: one of at least once. But we did get to 984 00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:07,799 Speaker 1: watch a kid from Westfield No One recruited development one 985 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,560 Speaker 1: of the greatest point guards in college history. Yeah, I 986 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:14,320 Speaker 1: think the more removed you get, there's probably a little 987 00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 1: bit of that that continues to be the yeah, the 988 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 1: future thought you will have and looking back on this, 989 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 1: but I'll go back to what I said to lead 990 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 1: off the show. When I think of Saturday Night, there 991 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:28,719 Speaker 1: is a little bit if I were a Purdue fan 992 00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,759 Speaker 1: of thinking, Look, Arizona probably beats us, what seven or 993 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 1: eight times out of ten? 994 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 2: Mm hmm, but I would have liked to have. 995 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:39,760 Speaker 1: Gone down swinging with our real punch and not our counter. 996 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 1: You know that first half, you build a seven point 997 00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:44,759 Speaker 1: lead with a lineup that looked like that looks like 998 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 1: us right now in the morning show. You know, a 999 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:48,080 Speaker 1: bunch of misfits trying to make it. 1000 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:49,959 Speaker 2: Work here, throwing it together and seeing what sticks. 1001 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:51,759 Speaker 1: You Knowdue built that lead with Braden Smith on the 1002 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:54,040 Speaker 1: bench and Trey Kaufman, ren battm foul trouble and fuch' 1003 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:56,279 Speaker 1: a larn not having a great first half of you know, 1004 00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:59,200 Speaker 1: Daniel Jacobson given quality minutes and Jakari Harris is throwing 1005 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:01,960 Speaker 1: in a couple threes. Then Couflin Wrinn gets that third 1006 00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:05,879 Speaker 1: foul early in the second half, and you know that 1007 00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 1: might be more of the individual thought I have, like 1008 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:10,759 Speaker 1: again to go back, you know, to me in that 1009 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:11,719 Speaker 1: national title game. 1010 00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,359 Speaker 2: You know there's a thought that I have, probably far 1011 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:14,759 Speaker 2: too often. 1012 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:16,920 Speaker 1: I wouldn't tell Maddie this, of like what if Notre 1013 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,279 Speaker 1: Dame gets a final third down stop wetal house side 1014 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 1: is is the game and Notre Dame gets the ball 1015 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:23,279 Speaker 1: back and they have a chance now to go down 1016 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:26,799 Speaker 1: and force the game into overtime. You know that is 1017 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:30,439 Speaker 1: you know for Purdue, I get that obviously they got 1018 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:33,760 Speaker 1: smoked in the second half. But again, two weeks earlier, 1019 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 1: you beat a team on Saturday night that plays Arizona. 1020 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 1: Right now, I think Michigan is Michigan's light favored. I'm 1021 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:40,239 Speaker 1: pretty sure they are. I believe they are. You know, 1022 00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:43,120 Speaker 1: you beat them and led for pretty much the entire game, 1023 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: if not all the game and the Big Ten tournament 1024 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:48,240 Speaker 1: to win it on a neutral floor. So that's definitely 1025 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,319 Speaker 1: a thought that I think would cross my mind, Like damn, 1026 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:52,720 Speaker 1: I just wish we would have gone down with kaufin 1027 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 1: Renn out there, not in foul trouble and then seeing 1028 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,359 Speaker 1: what could happen. You know, maybe the results the same, 1029 00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 1: probably very well would have been the same. 1030 00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 2: You know, is that a little bit more on your mind? 1031 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:04,959 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, Purdue fans, you got a little bit longer 1032 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 4: to think about it and all that stuff. But maybe 1033 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 4: maybe to soothe your your your emotions here, maybe you 1034 00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,239 Speaker 4: can win a chance to go to the State Farm 1035 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 4: Slam Dunk Contest and three point Championship. 1036 00:44:14,719 --> 00:44:16,080 Speaker 1: Look at this, we. 1037 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:16,920 Speaker 3: Got a pair of tickets. 1038 00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:19,359 Speaker 1: There a connection in that, and I don't know there 1039 00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:22,839 Speaker 1: might be, but leave the sharpshooter lawyers in it. 1040 00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:26,120 Speaker 4: So hang out there, get a pair of tickets, go 1041 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:29,240 Speaker 4: to that that is Friday at Hinklefield House. 1042 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 2: How about this we go to the text line. 1043 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 4: First person to text the word dunk d u n 1044 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:37,760 Speaker 4: K to three one seven two three nine ten seventy 1045 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:39,359 Speaker 4: gets that said tickets, kalab. 1046 00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:40,399 Speaker 1: We'll hook you up there. 1047 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:42,680 Speaker 4: How about that you might have another one to give 1048 00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 4: away as well. 1049 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 1: Mark Dykon's spelling dunk for all of us here on 1050 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:46,320 Speaker 1: this Tuesday. 1051 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,040 Speaker 4: Well, sometimes the auto correct, you know, doesn't give you 1052 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:51,240 Speaker 4: the right language.

I mean literally shocked when 1162 00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:44,760 Speaker 9: he would miss, and there would be times in practice 1163 00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:46,239 Speaker 9: where he would just get it going and go through 1164 00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:48,640 Speaker 9: these flurries just like he does now on this stage 1165 00:49:48,760 --> 00:49:50,400 Speaker 9: where you know, he'd hit three or four threes in 1166 00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:52,319 Speaker 9: a row and just you know, could hit him from 1167 00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:55,320 Speaker 9: Kayln Clark, Steph Curry range with ease, and so shooting 1168 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,080 Speaker 9: is something that you know, he always came natural to 1169 00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:00,279 Speaker 9: him through being in the gym, growing up with this father, 1170 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:02,560 Speaker 9: of being in the gym every single morning with me during. 1171 00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:03,360 Speaker 1: His high school seasons. 1172 00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:05,680 Speaker 9: But I would say one of the things for his weekends, 1173 00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:08,520 Speaker 9: you know, we talk about for him being able to 1174 00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:11,200 Speaker 9: be more vocal and also bringing that out. So I 1175 00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:13,080 Speaker 9: called him, I had to call him BMF that mofo 1176 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:15,719 Speaker 9: because sometimes I needed to bring out that edge in 1177 00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:18,480 Speaker 9: him and what he needed to be on these opponents 1178 00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:21,040 Speaker 9: because he was such a humble and soft spoken kid 1179 00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:23,200 Speaker 9: that there would be times in games where I needed 1180 00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:25,000 Speaker 9: him to show that he could do that. And then 1181 00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:27,520 Speaker 9: once he flipped that switch, there was nobody that could 1182 00:50:27,520 --> 00:50:29,200 Speaker 9: e re guard him. Always the best player on the floor. 1183 00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:30,040 Speaker 3: Was that on purpose? 1184 00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:33,400 Speaker 1: Braylan Mullens bad mofo BM was that on purpose? 1185 00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:35,440 Speaker 9: It just kind of works, right, Yeah, And it just 1186 00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:37,240 Speaker 9: kind of worked. I don't know, it was a halftime speech. 1187 00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:39,439 Speaker 9: It just kind of happened. And now it's BMF twenty four. 1188 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:41,600 Speaker 9: That's kind of the nicknack. It kind of worked. 1189 00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:43,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's T shirt sales right there. You need to 1190 00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:46,359 Speaker 1: get a copy right out. Talk about acronym. I'm never 1191 00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 1: gonna sniff here. That's the voice of Luke Meredith, the 1192 00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:53,799 Speaker 1: Greenfield Central basketball coach, and Braylan Mullens was there. I 1193 00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:56,520 Speaker 1: do want to hit on Dan Hurley and you Khan. 1194 00:50:56,800 --> 00:50:59,279 Speaker 1: You mentioned obviously his recruitment kind of blowing up a 1195 00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:01,520 Speaker 1: little bit later. I know the Mullens family has talked 1196 00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:03,960 Speaker 1: about I think Josh actually been on these airwaves talk 1197 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:07,160 Speaker 1: about just how active Dan Hurley was in you know, 1198 00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:09,560 Speaker 1: coming to Greenfield Central and making sure there was a 1199 00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:12,640 Speaker 1: there was an in person presence to that recruitment. 1200 00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:14,520 Speaker 2: What do you remember at the interactions with. 1201 00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:19,600 Speaker 9: Yukon, Well, their staff is great. I mean, Luke Murray 1202 00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:21,879 Speaker 9: was very influential. He's going to actually be introduced today 1203 00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:23,759 Speaker 9: at two thirty to be the Boston College head coach. 1204 00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:28,279 Speaker 9: But he's great too, And and they were they recruited 1205 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:31,800 Speaker 9: Braylan harder than anybody else. And also when you meet 1206 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,720 Speaker 9: Dan Hurley, he's exactly what you would think, like everybody 1207 00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:37,440 Speaker 9: sees all these theatrics on the sidelines, and that's true. 1208 00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:40,080 Speaker 9: But I mean we went to the depot here locally 1209 00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:42,319 Speaker 9: at Greenfield and he ordered an ipa. He said, what 1210 00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:43,879 Speaker 9: do you have on draft? Like he ordered a beer 1211 00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:46,880 Speaker 9: on a recruiting visit. And they're just there. They are cool, 1212 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,480 Speaker 9: they'll talk to you like regular people. They get it, 1213 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:53,359 Speaker 9: they work their tails off, and so it just kind 1214 00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:55,680 Speaker 9: of fit. It fit Braylan being out in stores, which 1215 00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:57,720 Speaker 9: was similar to Greenfield kind of you no dis effect, 1216 00:51:57,800 --> 00:51:59,080 Speaker 9: kind of out there in the middle of nowhere where 1217 00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:00,600 Speaker 9: he could just focus on doing what he wanted to 1218 00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,239 Speaker 9: do in hoop. And then their staff was just was 1219 00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:07,080 Speaker 9: phenomenal and flying in on private jets and honestly, they 1220 00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:09,240 Speaker 9: out recruited IU just by working harder. 1221 00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:14,160 Speaker 1: What do you remember about I guess I You's involvement 1222 00:52:14,239 --> 00:52:17,560 Speaker 1: and and Purdue if at all there with Braylin. 1223 00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:21,560 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean it was kind of a whirlwind six 1224 00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:23,520 Speaker 9: months where we would have, you know, we had Matt Painter, 1225 00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:26,400 Speaker 9: we had Mike Woodson, we had Hubert Davis, and we 1226 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:28,040 Speaker 9: had Rick Barnes.

It's not 1310 00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:52,560 Speaker 1: this high maintenance approach, even though I'm sure the nil dollar. 1311 00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:54,640 Speaker 2: Would indicate, you know, he he would have every right 1312 00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:55,400 Speaker 2: to be that. 1313 00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:57,040 Speaker 1: And if you want to look at the game itself, 1314 00:55:57,080 --> 00:55:58,680 Speaker 1: and I think Tom creen will comment on this when 1315 00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:00,360 Speaker 1: he joins his coming up nine. Tom is on the 1316 00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:04,160 Speaker 1: Westwood one call of Duke and yukon Saturn on Sunday, 1317 00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:06,600 Speaker 1: and Tom Crean tweet after the game. You know he 1318 00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:09,680 Speaker 1: was struck by watching Braylen Bollen's body language throughout that game, 1319 00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:12,120 Speaker 1: a game that he had struggled in, you know, a 1320 00:56:12,120 --> 00:56:15,480 Speaker 1: game that his only three point make was that one. Yeah, 1321 00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:17,880 Speaker 1: and you know, for a freshman to be in that moment, 1322 00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:20,040 Speaker 1: to think about all the things he's not probably had 1323 00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:24,040 Speaker 1: a great month of March to then step up and 1324 00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:26,560 Speaker 1: you know, obviously take that shot, but you know, banging 1325 00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:29,359 Speaker 1: home it definitely shows you just the type of kid 1326 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:32,320 Speaker 1: he is. And man, can you imagine what a moment, 1327 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:37,439 Speaker 1: what a freaking moment. B MF and Caravan to toss 1328 00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:39,520 Speaker 1: it back to him. Like, I thought that was such 1329 00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:41,000 Speaker 1: a great player by Caravan. 1330 00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:42,799 Speaker 4: Because you would have thought, you know, he at least 1331 00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:44,879 Speaker 4: hit a three point. You're like, oh, okay, he'll throw 1332 00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:46,239 Speaker 4: it up. Nope, do you take it? 1333 00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:49,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, But here's your most accomplished and he had just 1334 00:56:49,680 --> 00:56:52,799 Speaker 1: hit one, like two possessions before that, and he's what 1335 00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:55,040 Speaker 1: your fifth or six all time leading sport in school history. 1336 00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:57,439 Speaker 1: He's been on both the national title teams. Like he's 1337 00:56:57,520 --> 00:57:00,200 Speaker 1: the one that has earned the right to shoot that. Again, 1338 00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:03,520 Speaker 1: It's not like Braylan had this great game to that point, 1339 00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:06,279 Speaker 1: but boy, yeah, just what a heady play, What an 1340 00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:09,759 Speaker 1: absolute heady play there. So obviously the recruitment's there from 1341 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:11,719 Speaker 1: probably more of an Indiana side of it than a 1342 00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:12,840 Speaker 1: produce side of it. 1343 00:57:12,880 --> 00:57:14,000 Speaker 2: Make you pause a little bit. 1344 00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:16,880 Speaker 4: Also, the defense by the duke defender throw throw a 1345 00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:17,720 Speaker 4: hand up or something. 1346 00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:20,960 Speaker 1: The next time, who was that sor Isaiah Evans. 1347 00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 2: Evans just didn't get a hand up there, just like. 1348 00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:25,600 Speaker 1: Stared at He stared at like everybody else, like all right, 1349 00:57:25,680 --> 00:57:27,640 Speaker 1: let's see what happens here. It's like the shell shocked 1350 00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:29,680 Speaker 1: nature of like I can't believe he just turned it over. 1351 00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:30,720 Speaker 3: I'm not given a foul. 1352 00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:32,640 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do anything here. 1353 00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:34,960 Speaker 4: Advancing the ball to and then none of that. There's 1354 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:36,760 Speaker 4: a lot of stuff that Duke did wrong down the starts. 1355 00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:38,440 Speaker 4: I'm like, none of this makes sense to me. 1356 00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:43,200 Speaker 1: A two and a half point underdog coming up on Saturday. 1357 00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:45,600 Speaker 1: These two teams have met you kind of Illinois earlier 1358 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:48,600 Speaker 1: this year. It was actually in Madison Square Garden the 1359 00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:53,120 Speaker 1: day after Thanksgiving. Obviously that was a long long time ago. Oh, 1360 00:57:53,200 --> 00:57:55,200 Speaker 1: I guess the line's changed. Both lines are one and 1361 00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:57,080 Speaker 1: a half right now. Illinois favoritboy one and a half, 1362 00:57:57,120 --> 00:57:59,800 Speaker 1: Michigan favorite by one and a half for Saturday. But 1363 00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:02,480 Speaker 1: keithon Woggle only had three points in the game. A 1364 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:05,240 Speaker 1: terrorist free junior who's been very good for Yukon also 1365 00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:07,120 Speaker 1: had a really limited night there. I think it was 1366 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:09,760 Speaker 1: Mullen's first game back because he dealt with that ankle 1367 00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:12,000 Speaker 1: injury a little bit in the off season that bled 1368 00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:14,760 Speaker 1: into the regular season. So enjoyed that one with Luke Meredith. 1369 00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:17,040 Speaker 1: Thank you to great Greg Straw. I was texting with 1370 00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:20,640 Speaker 1: Rake on Saturday or on Sunday night saying hey, any chance. 1371 00:58:20,640 --> 00:58:24,000 Speaker 1: You've got a little Greenfield Central connection here to help 1372 00:58:24,080 --> 00:58:25,640 Speaker 1: us localize the story. 1373 00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:25,520 Speaker 10: And. 1374 00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:31,160 Speaker 1: Rake delivers as always like Easter Bunny will deliver on Sunday. 1375 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:35,320 Speaker 4: Well, is it this Sundays?

I think peeps stink. Wow, 1381 00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:49,440 Speaker 1: you're Are you a Peeps fan? You just got offended. 1382 00:58:49,560 --> 00:58:51,520 Speaker 3: I am. I'm on an island here. 1383 00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:54,680 Speaker 1: That's fake. That's you're just trying to be the counter. 1384 00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:56,720 Speaker 1: You're just trying to make this show sound good. 1385 00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:59,400 Speaker 2: This is Team Finnman's in this room and then team 1386 00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:00,440 Speaker 2: so there. 1387 00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:03,440 Speaker 1: Can I interest you in this? A couple of years ago, 1388 00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:06,240 Speaker 1: Pepsi came out with a Pepsi Peeps drink. 1389 00:59:06,400 --> 00:59:07,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, that sounded hideous. 1390 00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:11,520 Speaker 1: Wow, I'd rather come on, I'd rather know Mayo. I'd 1391 00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:13,800 Speaker 1: rather do Mayo in this hot coffee again as well, 1392 00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:14,720 Speaker 1: was still around? 1393 00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:16,640 Speaker 2: Turn that twice already on the phone and make it 1394 00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:17,040 Speaker 2: a third. 1395 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:21,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely incredible. Tom Crean at nine, James, Boy, you're 1396 00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:23,960 Speaker 1: going to join us here coming up at nine to thirty. 1397 00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:26,360 Speaker 1: We were talking about Anthony Richardson a little bit earlier. 1398 00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:28,920 Speaker 1: Mark and you know, maybe the door cracked open from 1399 00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:32,000 Speaker 1: the colt to brass yesterday and saying, well maybe he 1400 00:59:32,080 --> 00:59:35,640 Speaker 1: could return. Jason on the text, I was asking where 1401 00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:40,240 Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson would rank cap wise for a backup quarterback. 1402 00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:44,440 Speaker 1: It's a very fair question. I believe his cap that 1403 00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:47,240 Speaker 1: would be ten million for this season. I'd venture to 1404 00:59:47,240 --> 00:59:49,440 Speaker 1: guess that's on the higher end of backup quarterbacks in 1405 00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:51,920 Speaker 1: the league. I don't think it's like an absurd amount. 1406 00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:55,080 Speaker 1: I think backup quarterback frankly matters a good amount. 1407 00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:56,280 Speaker 2: Of in the NFL. 1408 00:59:56,600 --> 01:00:01,160 Speaker 1: But to where? And I totally understand Jason's question, But 1409 01:00:01,240 --> 01:00:03,200 Speaker 1: my thought is does it matter at this point? 1410 01:00:03,440 --> 01:00:06,040 Speaker 2: Like you don't need money to spend, You don't. 1411 01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:08,040 Speaker 1: Need money for your first round pick, Like you don't 1412 01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:10,919 Speaker 1: have a first round pick salary cap, you know line 1413 01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:13,040 Speaker 1: item that you have to have for this year. 1414 01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:14,560 Speaker 4: And you're not up against it where you need to 1415 01:00:14,600 --> 01:00:16,440 Speaker 4: make some cost cuts or anything like that. 1416 01:00:16,520 --> 01:00:19,480 Speaker 1: So and again, Richardson's contract comes off the books after 1417 01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:21,480 Speaker 1: this season. You know they can pick up a fifth 1418 01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:23,760 Speaker 1: year team option, which they won't do they could do 1419 01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:26,640 Speaker 1: that here. I think it's due by sometime in May. 1420 01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:29,280 Speaker 1: So I understand the question, Jason. And again, if they 1421 01:00:29,320 --> 01:00:32,320 Speaker 1: would have done other stuff of note in free agency, 1422 01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:35,200 Speaker 1: I do think that question would be a little bit 1423 01:00:35,240 --> 01:00:37,720 Speaker 1: more of like, Okay, I don't know if you've got 1424 01:00:37,720 --> 01:00:39,960 Speaker 1: the dollars and cents to make Richardson work like he 1425 01:00:40,040 --> 01:00:42,360 Speaker 1: is making. I think it's ten times more than Riley Leonard. 1426 01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:45,240 Speaker 1: You probably should note that. I mean, that's obviously a 1427 01:00:45,360 --> 01:00:48,400 Speaker 1: huge amount. But again, you're at a point right now 1428 01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:52,080 Speaker 1: with your accounting where it's like you've got room, and 1429 01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:54,800 Speaker 1: I don't see it as that big of a burden. 1430 01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:56,640 Speaker 2: No, No, I don't think so either. 1431 01:00:56,720 --> 01:00:59,320 Speaker 1: I think that's one of their least concerns because, like 1432 01:00:59,360 --> 01:01:01,480 Speaker 1: you said, they have money, and you don't know where 1433 01:01:01,480 --> 01:01:03,800 Speaker 1: they're going to spend it, because they haven't left over. 1434 01:01:03,840 --> 01:01:05,560 Speaker 1: You're just they have it sitting in the bank account 1435 01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:08,280 Speaker 1: somewhere in West fifty six. Then you're just like, I mean, 1436 01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:09,440 Speaker 1: are you going to use any of that? Are you 1437 01:01:09,480 --> 01:01:10,360 Speaker 1: just sitting around me? 1438 01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:13,920 Speaker 4: They're using it for contract extensions or something, because it's 1439 01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:16,000 Speaker 4: just sitting there right now with no plans of using 1440 01:01:16,040 --> 01:01:17,960 Speaker 4: it except for maybe some depth pieces or whatever. 1441 01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:21,560 Speaker 1: By the way, if you watch this Jail Blazers on 1442 01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:22,880 Speaker 1: Netflix yet, I have not. 1443 01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:24,400 Speaker 2: I've heard of it. 1444 01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:27,720 Speaker 4: I saw it maybe yesterday on Twitter, but I do 1445 01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:29,760 Speaker 4: not know exactly what it pertains. 1446 01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:31,560 Speaker 1: I can't wait to watch that.

He's hitting the cover off the ball lay. 1502 01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:43,840 Speaker 1: He's getting on base right now more than really anybody's 1503 01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:46,560 Speaker 1: ever done to start their career with the Reds. 1504 01:03:46,800 --> 01:03:49,760 Speaker 4: Solids start for Cubs, start at Edward Cabrera made his 1505 01:03:49,840 --> 01:03:52,120 Speaker 4: first start as a Cub since getting traded to them, 1506 01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:55,120 Speaker 4: seven to two winners over the Angels. There, Reds two 1507 01:03:55,160 --> 01:03:59,200 Speaker 4: nothing shout out win over the Pirates. The Cardinals stink. 1508 01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:02,000 Speaker 4: They lost to the four to two. Sell the team 1509 01:04:02,040 --> 01:04:04,840 Speaker 4: they're terrible. Brewers get their first loss of the season. 1510 01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:07,480 Speaker 4: Two they fellal the Rays three to two. Indianapolis Indians, 1511 01:04:07,840 --> 01:04:09,960 Speaker 4: looking for their first winning the season, off to an 1512 01:04:10,040 --> 01:04:12,600 Speaker 4: zero to three start, hoping to get on the right 1513 01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:15,560 Speaker 4: side of the column with a winds night against Columbus Clippers. 1514 01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:18,360 Speaker 4: That's in Columbus. That's a first pitch of six point fifteen. 1515 01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:20,760 Speaker 1: They'll be back at home on Tuesday, I believe for 1516 01:04:20,800 --> 01:04:22,120 Speaker 1: those trying to get the NA trust me. 1517 01:04:22,160 --> 01:04:22,320 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1518 01:04:22,320 --> 01:04:23,720 Speaker 4: We were digging out through the garage and I found 1519 01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:25,960 Speaker 4: some beer bats. I'm like, oh boy, let's go. We're 1520 01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:26,480 Speaker 4: getting close. 1521 01:04:26,680 --> 01:04:28,280 Speaker 1: Let's go get a little dirt in the bottom of 1522 01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:30,600 Speaker 1: those really big baseball season as we get a little 1523 01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:34,760 Speaker 1: foamy beer in some dirt. Pacers practice today. They're up 1524 01:04:34,760 --> 01:04:37,120 Speaker 1: in Chicago again. I still think they're in a comfortable 1525 01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:40,080 Speaker 1: spot from a tanking standpoint. With two weeks ago in 1526 01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:44,120 Speaker 1: the season, they could probably flirt with a winner two 1527 01:04:44,600 --> 01:04:48,640 Speaker 1: and still be again in a good position at Chicago Wednesday, 1528 01:04:48,720 --> 01:04:53,640 Speaker 1: at Charlotte, Friday, at Cleveland coming up here on Sunday. 1529 01:04:54,560 --> 01:04:56,400 Speaker 1: We should have mentioned this a little bit earlier. 1530 01:04:56,480 --> 01:04:56,960 Speaker 2: We did see. 1531 01:04:57,000 --> 01:04:59,760 Speaker 1: We had Ronald Norrid on the show yesterday. Finley bis 1532 01:05:00,600 --> 01:05:03,919 Speaker 1: probably their best chance at a returning player from last 1533 01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:04,520 Speaker 1: year's team. 1534 01:05:04,520 --> 01:05:05,960 Speaker 2: He did enter the transfer portal. 1535 01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:08,720 Speaker 1: So you've seen, as you would expect, a good amount 1536 01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:12,640 Speaker 1: of portal activity for Butler so far in terms of departures. 1537 01:05:12,880 --> 01:05:15,360 Speaker 2: Portal officially opens up one week from today. 1538 01:05:16,080 --> 01:05:18,960 Speaker 1: I assume finliebis Jack Texas kid, if I'm not mistaken, 1539 01:05:19,240 --> 01:05:22,000 Speaker 1: he'll probably be looking at a healthy payday out there 1540 01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:25,680 Speaker 1: in the portal world. NFL news to get to again, 1541 01:05:25,840 --> 01:05:29,040 Speaker 1: not a lot from a league headline standpoint out there 1542 01:05:29,040 --> 01:05:31,560 Speaker 1: in Arizona. We'll see if anything happens from an eighteen 1543 01:05:31,600 --> 01:05:34,920 Speaker 1: game standpoint today. But Mark, we did see the Cleveland 1544 01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:40,840 Speaker 1: Browns proposal withdrawn. Remind everybody they had proposed having the 1545 01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:45,400 Speaker 1: ability to trade draft picks up to five years in advance. 1546 01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:47,600 Speaker 1: Currently it's just up to three years. This has to 1547 01:05:47,640 --> 01:05:49,880 Speaker 1: be very much like an NBA rule. The NBA allows 1548 01:05:49,920 --> 01:05:52,880 Speaker 1: you to trade picks in future years. And I guess 1549 01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:54,160 Speaker 1: you know, we debated this a little bit in the 1550 01:05:54,160 --> 01:05:56,680 Speaker 1: opening hour. I guess there are two sides of it. One, 1551 01:05:57,480 --> 01:05:59,160 Speaker 1: you know, the owners might say, hey, I don't want 1552 01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:02,120 Speaker 1: to give my g that much control the ability to 1553 01:06:02,160 --> 01:06:05,560 Speaker 1: trade draft picks that far in advance. The counter to 1554 01:06:05,600 --> 01:06:09,040 Speaker 1: that would say, from an entertainment value standpoint, the NFL, 1555 01:06:09,040 --> 01:06:12,000 Speaker 1: if there's one thing lacking, it's probably trades. So the 1556 01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:15,560 Speaker 1: ability to do more of these trades could lead to 1557 01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:18,520 Speaker 1: a busier trade deadline, a busier offseason when it comes 1558 01:06:18,520 --> 01:06:18,800 Speaker 1: to that. 1559 01:06:19,680 --> 01:06:21,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, I could see why the Brown's also won trade 1560 01:06:21,320 --> 01:06:22,800 Speaker 4: five years. They're trying to get out of that. Deshaun 1561 01:06:22,840 --> 01:06:25,880 Speaker 4: Watson del still there. If we trade five draft picks, 1562 01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:27,520 Speaker 4: can we get somebody to take them off our hands? 1563 01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:28,840 Speaker 3: Please? Please get rid of that? 1564 01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:29,040 Speaker 1: No? 1565 01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:30,600 Speaker 3: Okay, did I see. 1566 01:06:30,400 --> 01:06:33,200 Speaker 1: A headline yesterday where like this could be Deshaun Watson's year? 1567 01:06:33,240 --> 01:06:36,480 Speaker 2: I'm like, what is saying that? I swear it was 1568 01:06:36,560 --> 01:06:38,920 Speaker 2: Jimmy Haslam, the Brown's owner, which. 1569 01:06:38,880 --> 01:06:41,600 Speaker 4: They say a Baker's dozen quarterbacks on that roster too. 1570 01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:43,760 Speaker 4: You want to talk about depth at a quarterback, the 1571 01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:45,280 Speaker 4: Browns have it. I don't know if it's good depth, 1572 01:06:45,440 --> 01:06:46,160 Speaker 4: but they sure have it. 1573 01:06:47,200 --> 01:06:49,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I yeah, definitely on that. 1574 01:06:49,560 --> 01:06:53,600 Speaker 4: Somebody says there's a doctor Pepper cotton candy flavor. 1575 01:06:53,600 --> 01:06:55,680 Speaker 2: Are we just putting candy and sodas? 1576 01:06:55,720 --> 01:06:55,880 Speaker 7: Now? 1577 01:06:56,280 --> 01:06:59,400 Speaker 1: They said there's doctor pepper. Peeps, I'm going after the show, 1578 01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:02,080 Speaker 1: are freaking horrific. 1579 01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:04,480 Speaker 3: They are. I'm gonna bring some.

But 1641 01:09:31,920 --> 01:09:34,240 Speaker 1: just thoughts to Jay n Ivy right now. It's a 1642 01:09:34,280 --> 01:09:36,720 Speaker 1: story that you never want to see at all. I 1643 01:09:36,720 --> 01:09:39,160 Speaker 1: have not going to pretend like I have consumed these 1644 01:09:39,320 --> 01:09:42,639 Speaker 1: thirty forty I guess even longer videos that he's had 1645 01:09:42,640 --> 01:09:45,880 Speaker 1: on social media in some way sh'ld perform I guess 1646 01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:51,320 Speaker 1: expressing some sort of homophobic I believe some racial I 1647 01:09:51,320 --> 01:09:55,040 Speaker 1: had just seen some homophobic stuff. Okay, so I mean that. Yeah, 1648 01:09:55,240 --> 01:09:58,559 Speaker 1: just thoughts with him for sure. Yeah, the bulls waved 1649 01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:01,320 Speaker 1: him yesterday. For those that have this story, you know 1650 01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:04,280 Speaker 1: about a year ago he suffered a very gruesome injury, 1651 01:10:04,320 --> 01:10:05,920 Speaker 1: and you know, I think a player of j n 1652 01:10:05,920 --> 01:10:09,519 Speaker 1: Ivy's skill set, you know, obviously any injury is notable, 1653 01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:12,479 Speaker 1: but you know, he is a peak, peak athlete when 1654 01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:14,720 Speaker 1: he's out on the floor, and I think it really 1655 01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:17,880 Speaker 1: hindered his physical ability on the floor. And you know, 1656 01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:20,680 Speaker 1: he's been outspoken before about his own mental health and 1657 01:10:20,720 --> 01:10:24,600 Speaker 1: some struggles in that area, so clearly there are some 1658 01:10:24,640 --> 01:10:26,320 Speaker 1: things that Jay n Ivy's got to take care of. 1659 01:10:26,920 --> 01:10:28,800 Speaker 1: You thought about his mom a lot. You know, she's 1660 01:10:28,840 --> 01:10:30,800 Speaker 1: the head coach and the Notre Dame women's team. They 1661 01:10:30,800 --> 01:10:34,600 Speaker 1: are very close, very very close. I think anytime you 1662 01:10:34,640 --> 01:10:36,439 Speaker 1: watch Jade and at Perdue, she tried to make as 1663 01:10:36,439 --> 01:10:38,720 Speaker 1: many games as she could and balancing what she was 1664 01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:41,360 Speaker 1: doing there, and even in his NBA career has done 1665 01:10:41,400 --> 01:10:44,040 Speaker 1: the same. So yeah, I just thoughts to j and 1666 01:10:44,080 --> 01:10:46,360 Speaker 1: Ivy and trying to figure it out. You know, probably 1667 01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:49,280 Speaker 1: more from a mental standpoint than a physical standpoint right now. 1668 01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:50,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely for sure. 1669 01:10:50,560 --> 01:10:53,280 Speaker 4: I saw he was on Instagram Live again after getting 1670 01:10:53,280 --> 01:10:55,639 Speaker 4: waved by the bulls doing some rants too, So hopefully 1671 01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:57,120 Speaker 4: he gets the help he needs. Hopefully you can talk 1672 01:10:57,120 --> 01:10:59,280 Speaker 4: to his mom, get his head right and everything like that. 1673 01:10:59,320 --> 01:11:01,600 Speaker 4: But not a good situation, all right, Coming up to 1674 01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:03,519 Speaker 4: the other side, much more on where the Colts are 1675 01:11:03,560 --> 01:11:04,960 Speaker 4: from a league meeting standpoint. 1676 01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:07,160 Speaker 1: We'll continue to hit a little bit on Purdue as 1677 01:11:07,280 --> 01:11:08,600 Speaker 1: put a bow tie on that. 1678 01:11:08,720 --> 01:11:11,120 Speaker 2: Tom Crean at nine, James Boyd at nine thirty. 1679 01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:13,040 Speaker 1: It's the Show of the Misfits, Kevin Bow and Mark 1680 01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:19,040 Speaker 1: Dyke and Caleb Zuber On a Tuesday, it's for the 1681 01:11:19,120 --> 01:11:19,880 Speaker 1: road trip talk. 1682 01:11:21,280 --> 01:11:23,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, were you listening to this on the way down 1683 01:11:23,439 --> 01:11:23,920 Speaker 3: to Florida? 1684 01:11:24,120 --> 01:11:27,559 Speaker 1: I spies the song.

Who I mean, You're 1789 01:15:39,560 --> 01:15:42,040 Speaker 1: gonna see all of it. And I'm not gonna name 1790 01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:45,000 Speaker 1: any names, but I think in recent April Fools shows 1791 01:15:46,040 --> 01:15:47,280 Speaker 1: we've had a few dupers. 1792 01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:48,920 Speaker 2: Just see that Sidney Swing. 1793 01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:51,280 Speaker 1: He's gonna be the live action Princess Peach and the 1794 01:15:51,320 --> 01:15:51,960 Speaker 1: Mario movie. 1795 01:15:52,040 --> 01:15:53,000 Speaker 2: No that came out. 1796 01:15:53,240 --> 01:15:55,160 Speaker 1: No, did Jake really ask Alec Pearson? 1797 01:15:55,360 --> 01:15:55,519 Speaker 7: Yes? 1798 01:15:55,800 --> 01:15:56,879 Speaker 1: Dating Sidney Swiney. 1799 01:15:56,960 --> 01:15:59,479 Speaker 4: He did, I mean, I guess when that money hits 1800 01:15:59,520 --> 01:16:02,040 Speaker 4: the bank, accoun you can kind of, you know, see 1801 01:16:02,040 --> 01:16:02,519 Speaker 4: what's going on. 1802 01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:05,200 Speaker 3: He's been on that for like months. 1803 01:16:05,080 --> 01:16:08,040 Speaker 1: And Alex Pierce politely said, I have no idea what 1804 01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:11,160 Speaker 1: you're talking about. By the way, I think last year 1805 01:16:11,200 --> 01:16:13,120 Speaker 1: we had a comment on the show maybe a Hunter 1806 01:16:13,200 --> 01:16:15,200 Speaker 1: Dickinson was coming back to Kansas for an eighth year. 1807 01:16:15,840 --> 01:16:17,679 Speaker 1: I think that was one of our April fools dupe. 1808 01:16:17,720 --> 01:16:21,360 Speaker 1: So fair warning to everybody out there coming up for tomorrow. Caleb, 1809 01:16:21,360 --> 01:16:23,400 Speaker 1: You've got some Chris Ballen audio. This was ballad in 1810 01:16:23,439 --> 01:16:25,800 Speaker 1: regards to the d line. Again, this is out there. 1811 01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:28,080 Speaker 1: I believe this is the lair Overton out there at 1812 01:16:28,080 --> 01:16:30,479 Speaker 1: the league owners meetings. You find this on the Colts 1813 01:16:30,560 --> 01:16:33,120 Speaker 1: YouTube page. But yesterday we did hear from the Colts 1814 01:16:33,120 --> 01:16:36,280 Speaker 1: general manager and these are some of his defensive line 1815 01:16:36,360 --> 01:16:38,200 Speaker 1: thoughts here through the offseason. 1816 01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:40,880 Speaker 10: Depth is so important in this league. Like you can't 1817 01:16:42,200 --> 01:16:45,520 Speaker 10: like to expect four guys to get through a seventeen 1818 01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:50,080 Speaker 10: game into the playoffs. It's impossible. So we wanted to 1819 01:16:50,080 --> 01:16:54,240 Speaker 10: make sure we added depth, especially inside. You know, Buck 1820 01:16:54,280 --> 01:16:57,800 Speaker 10: and Grover we think are still special special players, but 1821 01:16:58,520 --> 01:17:02,160 Speaker 10: getting a little older, so ability to add you know, 1822 01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:05,479 Speaker 10: Nandi and Kobe and Tillery, we think all of them 1823 01:17:05,479 --> 01:17:07,680 Speaker 10: are going to really help us. Plus Tommy coming back, 1824 01:17:07,720 --> 01:17:10,280 Speaker 10: which we thought he took another step. And then on 1825 01:17:10,320 --> 01:17:13,680 Speaker 10: the edge, you know, having Jalen back, having Lot to 1826 01:17:13,760 --> 01:17:15,479 Speaker 10: who we think, you know, we think a Lot two 1827 01:17:15,520 --> 01:17:17,920 Speaker 10: is going to take a whole nother step. But adding 1828 01:17:18,080 --> 01:17:22,439 Speaker 10: Arden and Clemens, who both play extremely hard, we think 1829 01:17:22,479 --> 01:17:24,559 Speaker 10: it's we think they're both really good fits for what 1830 01:17:24,600 --> 01:17:27,280 Speaker 10: we want to do. So we feel like we have 1831 01:17:27,320 --> 01:17:30,000 Speaker 10: a good foundation. Now, you know, we still have tom left, 1832 01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:32,680 Speaker 10: and we have the draft and moving forward into the 1833 01:17:32,680 --> 01:17:35,160 Speaker 10: season when you can still acquire players. So we feel 1834 01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:37,519 Speaker 10: good about where we're at and the guys we've added, 1835 01:17:37,520 --> 01:17:38,880 Speaker 10: but we still got some work to. 1836 01:17:38,840 --> 01:17:45,400 Speaker 1: Do outside of Daniel Jones, more than Jonathan Taylor, more 1837 01:17:45,439 --> 01:17:49,280 Speaker 1: than Alec Pierce, more than Tyler Warren, more than Bernard Ryman. 1838 01:17:49,439 --> 01:17:51,400 Speaker 1: I keep on going down the list. There is not 1839 01:17:51,560 --> 01:17:54,680 Speaker 1: a more important cult next year, and you need a 1840 01:17:54,840 --> 01:17:57,800 Speaker 1: great year from said player than allow too a lot 1841 01:17:57,800 --> 01:18:00,439 Speaker 1: too yep. I mean that is the message the Colts 1842 01:18:00,439 --> 01:18:04,360 Speaker 1: have sent loud and clear with this offseason that they 1843 01:18:04,360 --> 01:18:08,240 Speaker 1: are putting a lot of Easter eggs and on Peeps eggs, 1844 01:18:08,280 --> 01:18:10,800 Speaker 1: by the way, a lot of quality Easter eggs in 1845 01:18:10,880 --> 01:18:14,120 Speaker 1: the basket of mister Lattu. And you know, I thought 1846 01:18:14,160 --> 01:18:16,439 Speaker 1: he had more flashes than your two. To be fair 1847 01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:19,559 Speaker 1: to him, I have some intrigue. I don't know if 1848 01:18:19,600 --> 01:18:22,080 Speaker 1: I'm ready to hand him hitching your wagon to that 1849 01:18:22,240 --> 01:18:25,400 Speaker 1: though the car keys as much as they are. Because again, Mark, 1850 01:18:25,479 --> 01:18:28,320 Speaker 1: let's play this out. What did Chris Baler just say 1851 01:18:28,320 --> 01:18:31,719 Speaker 1: there about DeForest Buckner. He's getting up there a little 1852 01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:34,240 Speaker 1: bit more in age so and coming off an injury, right, 1853 01:18:34,680 --> 01:18:36,680 Speaker 1: a major surgery. I mean, hell, he went to a 1854 01:18:36,680 --> 01:18:40,080 Speaker 1: different continent to try to get it figured out. You know, 1855 01:18:40,120 --> 01:18:42,479 Speaker 1: if you are an opposing offensive coordinator and you're getting 1856 01:18:42,479 --> 01:18:45,200 Speaker 1: ready to block the Colts in a game, you might 1857 01:18:45,240 --> 01:18:47,599 Speaker 1: sit there and say, you know, what should we take 1858 01:18:47,640 --> 01:18:51,280 Speaker 1: our chances with Buckner? Given all that, and now maybe 1859 01:18:51,320 --> 01:18:53,240 Speaker 1: the double team slides out a lot to a little 1860 01:18:53,240 --> 01:18:53,519 Speaker 1: bit more. 1861 01:18:53,560 --> 01:18:55,759 Speaker 2: Now what does that do to your edge rush? 1862 01:18:55,800 --> 01:18:58,519 Speaker 1: So you know, for the most part, Ballard's words out 1863 01:18:58,520 --> 01:19:01,120 Speaker 1: there at the owners meetings were exactly clee kind of 1864 01:19:01,120 --> 01:19:03,880 Speaker 1: what I thought they would be of Like we tried 1865 01:19:03,920 --> 01:19:06,760 Speaker 1: for Hendrickson, but then once we didn't get them, we 1866 01:19:06,920 --> 01:19:10,120 Speaker 1: said depth and we'll try to hit in the draft, 1867 01:19:10,160 --> 01:19:12,840 Speaker 1: which you know, trying to hit in the draft is 1868 01:19:13,160 --> 01:19:17,120 Speaker 1: look like Aaron Judge and opening Night. Yeah, it's not 1869 01:19:17,120 --> 01:19:19,879 Speaker 1: been ideal. Yeah, I think that's that's a lot of pressure. 1870 01:19:21,160 --> 01:19:23,320 Speaker 4: There's a lot of pressure put on lat Too, and 1871 01:19:23,400 --> 01:19:25,000 Speaker 4: I mean, obviously, yes, we still have the draft to 1872 01:19:25,000 --> 01:19:26,760 Speaker 4: look to see with them, but even still then you're 1873 01:19:26,760 --> 01:19:29,719 Speaker 4: putting pressure on lat Too and a rookie or two, 1874 01:19:29,840 --> 01:19:32,479 Speaker 4: which I mean, I don't care what position outside of 1875 01:19:32,880 --> 01:19:36,120 Speaker 4: outside of quarterback. Usually rookies in the NFL don't really 1876 01:19:36,160 --> 01:19:39,840 Speaker 4: show you that much in their first year. So kind 1877 01:19:39,840 --> 01:19:41,680 Speaker 4: of curious to see what that strategy is going to 1878 01:19:41,760 --> 01:19:43,720 Speaker 4: look like. Like I said, I think edg Rusher is their 1879 01:19:43,720 --> 01:19:46,479 Speaker 4: biggest need. Linebackers still not looking great either, so they 1880 01:19:46,520 --> 01:19:50,000 Speaker 4: have some major issues on the defense, and I'm curious 1881 01:19:50,000 --> 01:19:52,479 Speaker 4: to see how lou Ana Romo plans exactly stitch this 1882 01:19:52,479 --> 01:19:52,880 Speaker 4: thing together. 1883 01:19:52,880 --> 01:19:53,320 Speaker 3: We're gonna be. 1884 01:19:53,320 --> 01:19:56,040 Speaker 1: Looking to like Frankenstein come week one and we're gonna 1885 01:19:56,040 --> 01:19:56,840 Speaker 1: be like, this is the defense. 1886 01:19:56,960 --> 01:19:58,519 Speaker 2: Is what it looks like. Let's see what Let's see 1887 01:19:58,520 --> 01:19:59,280 Speaker 2: what we do here. 1888 01:19:59,200 --> 01:20:01,040 Speaker 1: A Gary Chamman. And here problem with lots is that 1889 01:20:01,080 --> 01:20:03,439 Speaker 1: his flashes were interceptions. I mean, there are definitely some 1890 01:20:03,479 --> 01:20:06,880 Speaker 1: of that. You know, again, just a more consistent edge 1891 01:20:06,960 --> 01:20:11,280 Speaker 1: rush is what's needed here. So linebacker wise, you know, 1892 01:20:11,280 --> 01:20:14,040 Speaker 1: Baoer did mention that he feels like there's still a 1893 01:20:14,040 --> 01:20:15,920 Speaker 1: little bit out there in free agency that the Colts 1894 01:20:15,960 --> 01:20:19,320 Speaker 1: could dabble in. But he also likes this draft class, 1895 01:20:19,360 --> 01:20:22,320 Speaker 1: so you know, he he did talk about how they 1896 01:20:22,320 --> 01:20:26,240 Speaker 1: have hit on linebacker in youth before. He's exactly right, 1897 01:20:26,280 --> 01:20:29,000 Speaker 1: I mean linebacker, offensive line. Those are the two areas 1898 01:20:29,000 --> 01:20:31,639 Speaker 1: that he has definitely hit on throughout his drafting ten year. 1899 01:20:32,040 --> 01:20:36,360 Speaker 1: One question I would have is the hits at linebacker 1900 01:20:36,600 --> 01:20:40,760 Speaker 1: have not been with this defensive coordinator. And again go 1901 01:20:40,840 --> 01:20:42,559 Speaker 1: back to the Zion Franklin audio we played a few 1902 01:20:42,600 --> 01:20:44,479 Speaker 1: weeks back mark when Zaira was on with Jim Rome, 1903 01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:47,840 Speaker 1: Zira mentioned and again to me, Zira is a very 1904 01:20:47,840 --> 01:20:52,400 Speaker 1: cerebral player. He mentioned that the biggest difference from going 1905 01:20:52,439 --> 01:20:55,600 Speaker 1: from Gus Bradley scheme to lou Anarumo was just everything 1906 01:20:55,680 --> 01:20:59,320 Speaker 1: that needed to be communicated and called and the diversity 1907 01:20:59,600 --> 01:21:02,760 Speaker 1: and play to play week to week, et cetera, et cetera. 1908 01:21:02,800 --> 01:21:04,439 Speaker 1: How much of that do you want to throw in 1909 01:21:04,479 --> 01:21:07,479 Speaker 1: a rookies plate right at linebacker? That would probably be 1910 01:21:07,520 --> 01:21:08,280 Speaker 1: the biggest question. 1911 01:21:09,080 --> 01:21:11,559 Speaker 4: Yes, you better be pretty confident that whatever those selections are, 1912 01:21:11,640 --> 01:21:13,360 Speaker 4: or if you're gonna find a veteran that's does Bobby 1913 01:21:13,360 --> 01:21:14,639 Speaker 4: o'carake still out there? 1914 01:21:14,720 --> 01:21:14,760 Speaker 5: Is? 1915 01:21:14,960 --> 01:21:15,600 Speaker 2: I think he is? 1916 01:21:15,800 --> 01:21:17,880 Speaker 1: Okay, I think he is. That's a name, but I 1917 01:21:17,960 --> 01:21:20,000 Speaker 1: kind of thought of Keem Davis gaither would solve that. 1918 01:21:20,040 --> 01:21:22,840 Speaker 1: But you know, again, they do have cap space and 1919 01:21:22,880 --> 01:21:25,519 Speaker 1: there are some veteran linebackers now, you know, are they 1920 01:21:25,520 --> 01:21:26,639 Speaker 1: going to make you sleep? 1921 01:21:26,720 --> 01:21:27,240 Speaker 3: Uber Well? 1922 01:21:27,520 --> 01:21:30,880 Speaker 2: Who knows, but you could pursue a little bit of that. 1923 01:21:31,080 --> 01:21:34,120 Speaker 1: We'll chat with that with these topics about with James 1924 01:21:34,200 --> 01:21:36,759 Speaker 1: Boyd coming up, he's going to join us nine thirty 1925 01:21:36,880 --> 01:21:41,240 Speaker 1: out there at the owner's meetings.

But Mark, have 1946 01:22:35,600 --> 01:22:37,160 Speaker 1: you noticed over the last week or so of the 1947 01:22:37,160 --> 01:22:39,840 Speaker 1: YouTube chat's been hot and heavy with the IU versus 1948 01:22:39,840 --> 01:22:40,479 Speaker 1: Purdue fan. 1949 01:22:40,400 --> 01:22:41,599 Speaker 3: Oh, I've noticed. Yeah. 1950 01:22:41,680 --> 01:22:43,760 Speaker 4: Even on vacation, I was like, oh, it's getting a 1951 01:22:43,760 --> 01:22:46,080 Speaker 4: little heated in there. I'm like, what now, and like, oh, 1952 01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:47,920 Speaker 4: I you Purdue chatter. I'm like, well, that's the day 1953 01:22:47,920 --> 01:22:49,320 Speaker 4: that ends, and why usually. 1954 01:22:49,200 --> 01:22:51,080 Speaker 1: So you and I had this debate a little bit 1955 01:22:51,200 --> 01:22:55,000 Speaker 1: earlier and we both I would say, our biggest fandoms. 1956 01:22:55,640 --> 01:23:00,639 Speaker 1: The last title for those respective teams occurred the year 1957 01:23:00,640 --> 01:23:01,280 Speaker 1: we were born. 1958 01:23:01,800 --> 01:23:04,200 Speaker 2: It seems like we're good luck. I'm just saying, well. 1959 01:23:04,880 --> 01:23:06,400 Speaker 1: If we were, maybe there'd be a few more that 1960 01:23:06,439 --> 01:23:07,720 Speaker 1: would have happened since we've been born. 1961 01:23:07,760 --> 01:23:08,920 Speaker 2: But no, it was just our birth. 1962 01:23:09,520 --> 01:23:12,920 Speaker 1: Nonetheless, you are a nineteen eighty five birth year, and 1963 01:23:12,960 --> 01:23:13,479 Speaker 1: of course the. 1964 01:23:13,479 --> 01:23:14,559 Speaker 2: Super Bowl winner that year. 1965 01:23:15,120 --> 01:23:18,760 Speaker 1: Chicago Bears your bears nineteen eighty nine for myself and 1966 01:23:18,840 --> 01:23:21,600 Speaker 1: the national champions in football rest in peace to the 1967 01:23:21,640 --> 01:23:26,400 Speaker 1: great coach Lou Holtz in the Fighting Irish. Now, I 1968 01:23:27,240 --> 01:23:32,439 Speaker 1: this is where I struggle with fandom and defining fandom. Well, 1969 01:23:32,760 --> 01:23:35,320 Speaker 1: that's great that there's nice history for Notre Dame and 1970 01:23:35,680 --> 01:23:39,200 Speaker 1: you know for your bears as well. I feel nothing 1971 01:23:39,520 --> 01:23:43,639 Speaker 1: towards those titles. No, nothing at all. I you know, sorry, 1972 01:23:43,680 --> 01:23:46,640 Speaker 1: I'm not you know, Frank Lahy wasn't really doing it 1973 01:23:46,680 --> 01:23:48,360 Speaker 1: for me. The Four Horsemen, you know, I don't have 1974 01:23:48,479 --> 01:23:51,280 Speaker 1: vivid memories of you know, it's three yards and a 1975 01:23:51,280 --> 01:23:53,879 Speaker 1: cloud of dust there, big. 1976 01:23:53,680 --> 01:23:55,040 Speaker 3: Red machine doesn't do it for you. 1977 01:23:55,080 --> 01:23:57,559 Speaker 1: As a Reds fan, I love hearing stories about it, 1978 01:23:57,600 --> 01:23:59,799 Speaker 1: but you know, there weren't a lot of those moments. 1979 01:23:59,800 --> 01:24:03,080 Speaker 1: So let's bring that full circle. I you basketball fan 1980 01:24:03,200 --> 01:24:06,360 Speaker 1: versus Perdue basketball fan. If you are a forty an under, 1981 01:24:06,560 --> 01:24:08,479 Speaker 1: let's cut it off there, right, So that means you 1982 01:24:08,520 --> 01:24:11,160 Speaker 1: would have been one year old when Keith Smart hit 1983 01:24:11,200 --> 01:24:14,960 Speaker 1: the shot. If you are a forty year old I 1984 01:24:15,200 --> 01:24:19,840 Speaker 1: you or Purdue basketball fan. There's no debate, right which 1985 01:24:19,840 --> 01:24:21,400 Speaker 1: fan you'd rather be over the last fourty. 1986 01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:23,439 Speaker 4: I don't think so you'd have to I would have 1987 01:24:23,479 --> 01:24:25,240 Speaker 4: to hear quite the argument as to why you would 1988 01:24:25,320 --> 01:24:25,960 Speaker 4: choose you. 1989 01:24:26,880 --> 01:24:29,080 Speaker 1: Are you allowed, Caleb, you'd be the time breaker? Are 1990 01:24:29,120 --> 01:24:35,840 Speaker 1: you allowed to count titles that don't happen under your birth. 1991 01:24:37,280 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 3: In this discussion of which fan you would rather be? 1992 01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:40,240 Speaker 5: Right? 1993 01:24:40,280 --> 01:24:42,439 Speaker 1: Okay, you are a let's live in your world for 1994 01:24:42,479 --> 01:24:44,680 Speaker 1: a You are a duke basketball for a lot? 1995 01:24:44,720 --> 01:24:45,080 Speaker 3: About this? 1996 01:24:45,439 --> 01:24:46,439 Speaker 2: You were born in what year? 1997 01:24:47,000 --> 01:24:47,720 Speaker 3: Two thousand and one? 1998 01:24:47,840 --> 01:24:50,200 Speaker 1: Okay, so they won in the year I was born, 1999 01:24:50,240 --> 01:24:52,120 Speaker 1: like a couple months before I was born. They obviously 2000 01:24:52,160 --> 01:24:55,000 Speaker 1: have won a title since that, So you know, I 2001 01:24:55,040 --> 01:24:56,840 Speaker 1: don't know if you are, you know, living and dying 2002 01:24:56,840 --> 01:25:01,040 Speaker 1: with Elton Brand and you know Bobby her and those 2003 01:25:01,080 --> 01:25:01,760 Speaker 1: titles there? 2004 01:25:01,800 --> 01:25:03,960 Speaker 2: So are we being naive? Should we appreciate? 2005 01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:06,640 Speaker 1: Should Mark and I have more appreciation and act like 2006 01:25:06,680 --> 01:25:09,400 Speaker 1: we have fake joy for those titles that occurred prior 2007 01:25:09,439 --> 01:25:13,160 Speaker 1: to our burst. I will say this, like again with 2008 01:25:13,280 --> 01:25:16,320 Speaker 1: the game on Sunday, Duke and you kind of had. 2009 01:25:16,240 --> 01:25:17,799 Speaker 3: A lot of battles over the years. 2010 01:25:17,920 --> 01:25:21,759 Speaker 1: Sure, nineteen ninety nine, Yukon upsets Duke in the Final 2011 01:25:22,040 --> 01:25:23,559 Speaker 1: Not a lot of people saw that coming because Duke 2012 01:25:23,600 --> 01:25:25,320 Speaker 1: only had one loss up until that point. I remember 2013 01:25:25,360 --> 01:25:27,120 Speaker 1: waking up and asked my dad who won that game 2014 01:25:27,160 --> 01:25:29,439 Speaker 1: and he told me Yukon, and I didn't believe. Yeah. 2015 01:25:29,439 --> 01:25:32,160 Speaker 6: And then two thousand and four, like Duke Blue kind 2016 01:25:32,160 --> 01:25:34,240 Speaker 6: of an eight point lead, I think it was in 2017 01:25:34,280 --> 01:25:36,400 Speaker 6: the last like two thirty in the Final four as 2018 01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:39,720 Speaker 6: one of the JJ Reddick teams, and so like, I'm 2019 01:25:39,760 --> 01:25:41,920 Speaker 6: sure for those Duke fans that were alive for that, 2020 01:25:42,240 --> 01:25:44,960 Speaker 6: losing that game Sunday probably hit on a different level. 2021 01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:45,240 Speaker 5: For me. 2022 01:25:45,400 --> 01:25:49,800 Speaker 6: I didn't really experience that feeling. So I guess that 2023 01:25:49,920 --> 01:25:52,639 Speaker 6: is kind of to your point, like you can honor 2024 01:25:52,680 --> 01:25:55,200 Speaker 6: the history and like have admiration for it, but I 2025 01:25:55,240 --> 01:25:58,400 Speaker 6: don't know if you really feel it on that deep level. 2026 01:25:59,040 --> 01:26:01,880 Speaker 6: So yeah, I would probably say Purdue would be the 2027 01:26:01,960 --> 01:26:05,240 Speaker 6: right answer of basketball fan base. 2028 01:26:05,280 --> 01:26:06,320 Speaker 3: You would rather be I. 2029 01:26:06,360 --> 01:26:08,160 Speaker 1: Mean again, if you look at it within this forty 2030 01:26:08,240 --> 01:26:10,439 Speaker 1: year window, both have been the national runner up I 2031 01:26:10,600 --> 01:26:12,960 Speaker 1: U and O two Purdue. Of course, you know a 2032 01:26:13,000 --> 01:26:14,800 Speaker 1: couple of years ago I you did make what was 2033 01:26:14,840 --> 01:26:17,880 Speaker 1: it ninety two, ninety three one of those other final fours. 2034 01:26:17,960 --> 01:26:21,280 Speaker 1: If you look at it, obviously here you know we 2035 01:26:21,320 --> 01:26:23,640 Speaker 1: talked about a little bit earlier. We just wrapped up 2036 01:26:23,680 --> 01:26:26,840 Speaker 1: a produced senior class. That is their winningness class. They 2037 01:26:26,920 --> 01:26:34,200 Speaker 1: won ten NCAA tournament games. Ten I hate to play 2038 01:26:34,240 --> 01:26:36,080 Speaker 1: the game. How many years we have to go back 2039 01:26:36,120 --> 01:26:38,960 Speaker 1: to to find ten IU tournament wins? 2040 01:26:39,240 --> 01:26:40,680 Speaker 2: That's a great question. Do you think we have to 2041 01:26:40,720 --> 01:26:42,519 Speaker 2: go back to the national runner up n O two? 2042 01:26:44,080 --> 01:26:45,519 Speaker 1: If you add up all the years, you know, Tom 2043 01:26:45,560 --> 01:26:47,639 Speaker 1: Crean made it to several Sweet sixteen, so obviously there's 2044 01:26:47,680 --> 01:26:50,840 Speaker 1: a chunk. There's what six wins right there? You know, 2045 01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:53,479 Speaker 1: Woodson had I guess if we count of play in game, 2046 01:26:53,479 --> 01:26:57,080 Speaker 1: there's two. I mean, you know, like it's just I mean, 2047 01:26:57,120 --> 01:27:00,880 Speaker 1: to me, there's no real comparison right less think it's 2048 01:27:00,880 --> 01:27:03,519 Speaker 1: close unless you want to count the titles that occur 2049 01:27:03,800 --> 01:27:07,360 Speaker 1: prior to you coming out of the womb, which Mark 2050 01:27:07,400 --> 01:27:08,920 Speaker 1: and I aren't locked up in a lot of things, 2051 01:27:08,920 --> 01:27:09,760 Speaker 1: but we're locked up in this. 2052 01:27:09,840 --> 01:27:10,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't agree. 2053 01:27:10,720 --> 01:27:12,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, if I like I go to Cubs games and 2054 01:27:12,960 --> 01:27:15,760 Speaker 4: I see like the nineteen oh eight championship banner, I'm 2055 01:27:15,760 --> 01:27:17,479 Speaker 4: not like, yes, those are the days. 2056 01:27:17,720 --> 01:27:19,479 Speaker 2: No, I have no recollection of it. 2057 01:27:19,560 --> 01:27:22,120 Speaker 4: Like, no, I am appreciative of it, even though I 2058 01:27:22,120 --> 01:27:24,679 Speaker 4: go to black Hawks games nineteen sixty one. All right, 2059 01:27:24,760 --> 01:27:28,680 Speaker 4: Like my dad was three years old or something back then, 2060 01:27:28,760 --> 01:27:30,519 Speaker 4: since like even he didn't have a he doesn't have 2061 01:27:30,560 --> 01:27:31,559 Speaker 4: an appreciation for it. 2062 01:27:31,680 --> 01:27:33,519 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I've said this quite often when it comes 2063 01:27:33,520 --> 01:27:34,000 Speaker 2: to sports. 2064 01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:36,720 Speaker 1: To me, what I want out of the teams that 2065 01:27:36,800 --> 01:27:40,840 Speaker 1: I root for is can you create a window for 2066 01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:47,280 Speaker 1: me of sustained success? Can you create a let's be realistic, 2067 01:27:47,320 --> 01:27:51,240 Speaker 1: can you create a five ish year window where I 2068 01:27:51,360 --> 01:27:53,720 Speaker 1: feel like my team is going to be one of 2069 01:27:53,760 --> 01:27:56,320 Speaker 1: the ones that have a shot at it and within 2070 01:27:56,439 --> 01:27:59,559 Speaker 1: those years they're going to create unbelievable memories for me. 2071 01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:04,040 Speaker 1: You know, Purdue is obviously had that with their basketball program, 2072 01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:06,320 Speaker 1: I would argue right now, and the Pacers obviously have 2073 01:28:06,720 --> 01:28:08,479 Speaker 1: you know, a little bit of a hiccup here, But 2074 01:28:08,720 --> 01:28:10,679 Speaker 1: you're not going to tell me that the two previous 2075 01:28:10,760 --> 01:28:14,240 Speaker 1: years weren't unbelievable memories, even though the Pacers didn't get 2076 01:28:14,240 --> 01:28:16,960 Speaker 1: the parade here, Like going to the Eastern Conference Finals 2077 01:28:17,080 --> 01:28:21,160 Speaker 1: the previous year against Boston, I mean, those were great memories. 2078 01:28:21,200 --> 01:28:24,160 Speaker 1: And then obviously last year's ron is you know, almost 2079 01:28:24,240 --> 01:28:27,280 Speaker 1: cinema like. You know, that's what I want as a fan. Yes, 2080 01:28:27,439 --> 01:28:29,800 Speaker 1: obviously you want the title, you want to get to 2081 01:28:29,840 --> 01:28:33,080 Speaker 1: the top of the mountain. But you know, if you're 2082 01:28:33,120 --> 01:28:35,840 Speaker 1: an Indiana football fan, go back to the Curtis Rourke here. 2083 01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:39,800 Speaker 1: You didn't get some enjoyment out of you know, what 2084 01:28:39,840 --> 01:28:42,160 Speaker 1: they did in a eleven to one regular season there, 2085 01:28:42,320 --> 01:28:44,240 Speaker 1: That to me is what I want. Sure, you want 2086 01:28:44,240 --> 01:28:45,600 Speaker 1: the cherry on top, you want to get to the 2087 01:28:45,640 --> 01:28:48,280 Speaker 1: top of Everest. You can go with all those analogies, 2088 01:28:48,520 --> 01:28:51,519 Speaker 1: but can you give me a handful of year window 2089 01:28:52,120 --> 01:28:55,560 Speaker 1: where I feel like, pretty much annually we're going to 2090 01:28:55,600 --> 01:28:58,800 Speaker 1: have a chance, and within those chances, there's gonna be 2091 01:28:59,000 --> 01:29:05,040 Speaker 1: awesome memory games, moments, road wins. You know, this shot, 2092 01:29:05,120 --> 01:29:06,519 Speaker 1: this individual performance, all. 2093 01:29:06,360 --> 01:29:08,439 Speaker 2: That I could be wrong doing this way? 2094 01:29:08,800 --> 01:29:11,000 Speaker 3: Say that again. Two thousand and six, I was gonna 2095 01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:11,920 Speaker 3: say I was doing the quick math. 2096 01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:13,599 Speaker 1: It looks like two thousand and six to get ten 2097 01:29:14,000 --> 01:29:17,240 Speaker 1: tournament wins for Indiana. So twenty years. Yeah, yeah, So 2098 01:29:17,280 --> 01:29:20,280 Speaker 1: Purdue just did in three years what I us twenty 2099 01:29:20,479 --> 01:29:24,080 Speaker 1: It just to me rather, I don't I can't live 2100 01:29:24,160 --> 01:29:27,320 Speaker 1: with eighty seven eighty And again I'm speaking to a 2101 01:29:27,360 --> 01:29:29,360 Speaker 1: portion of our audience. I want to be that very clear. 2102 01:29:30,280 --> 01:29:32,920 Speaker 1: Thank you to our audience. Obviously that is out there 2103 01:29:32,920 --> 01:29:35,280 Speaker 1: that obviously are IU fans that are you know, older 2104 01:29:35,320 --> 01:29:38,200 Speaker 1: and do remember the eighty seven, eighty one, seventy six, 2105 01:29:38,439 --> 01:29:40,919 Speaker 1: et cetera. But again, there are other years within that 2106 01:29:40,920 --> 01:29:43,240 Speaker 1: that are super enjoyable. You know, Bob Knight has a 2107 01:29:43,240 --> 01:29:46,080 Speaker 1: strong affinity for a Big ten title that doesn't fall 2108 01:29:46,160 --> 01:29:49,640 Speaker 1: into those three years. You know, even if you look 2109 01:29:49,640 --> 01:29:53,200 Speaker 1: at the Korean era before he was able to, you know, 2110 01:29:53,280 --> 01:29:56,120 Speaker 1: get those teams, the Sweet sixteen, you know, there were 2111 01:29:56,120 --> 01:29:58,680 Speaker 1: some other moments within that that I feel like you 2112 01:29:58,800 --> 01:30:01,840 Speaker 1: hold in similar regard. Yeah, and if you're an IU fan, 2113 01:30:01,880 --> 01:30:04,080 Speaker 1: that's saying it's I you no doubt about, like you 2114 01:30:04,120 --> 01:30:06,679 Speaker 1: need you need to plead your argument to me, because 2115 01:30:06,720 --> 01:30:10,519 Speaker 1: I don't see how that's possible. Banners are banners, Mark, 2116 01:30:10,760 --> 01:30:12,719 Speaker 1: I don't care. Have you ever heard this is Indiana. 2117 01:30:12,840 --> 01:30:13,960 Speaker 1: That song, I have heard it. 2118 01:30:14,160 --> 01:30:16,240 Speaker 4: I've heard it plenty of times. But I also know 2119 01:30:16,280 --> 01:30:18,640 Speaker 4: that those banners have some dust on them. So if 2120 01:30:18,640 --> 01:30:22,000 Speaker 4: you're still you were alive when those banners were fresh, great, 2121 01:30:22,280 --> 01:30:25,160 Speaker 4: that's awesome. But if you're in our age group, do 2122 01:30:25,200 --> 01:30:26,320 Speaker 4: those mean anything to you? 2123 01:30:26,439 --> 01:30:26,559 Speaker 3: Like? 2124 01:30:26,600 --> 01:30:30,240 Speaker 1: I just finished watching the Soul Power documentary on Amazon 2125 01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:33,719 Speaker 1: about the ABA, and the Pacers had a big feature 2126 01:30:34,040 --> 01:30:37,519 Speaker 1: in several of those episodes, and I enjoyed listening and 2127 01:30:37,600 --> 01:30:41,080 Speaker 1: watching more on again a time where I, unfortunately wasn't alive. 2128 01:30:41,120 --> 01:30:42,200 Speaker 2: But my dad tells me tons of. 2129 01:30:42,120 --> 01:30:45,680 Speaker 1: Stories about those Pacer ABA title teams, so it was 2130 01:30:45,960 --> 01:30:49,519 Speaker 1: very enjoyable for me to listen, get educated, kind of 2131 01:30:49,560 --> 01:30:52,280 Speaker 1: experience it through my dad's eyes. But I wake up 2132 01:30:52,320 --> 01:30:55,479 Speaker 1: today thinking, man, if there's like one title the city 2133 01:30:55,479 --> 01:30:58,400 Speaker 1: deserves more than any it's an NBA title for the Pacers. Yeah, 2134 01:30:59,080 --> 01:31:01,880 Speaker 1: and that feeling to me is still like it's, you know, 2135 01:31:02,040 --> 01:31:02,920 Speaker 1: honestly burning. 2136 01:31:03,000 --> 01:31:05,480 Speaker 2: Frankly, from a fandom standpoint. 2137 01:31:05,120 --> 01:31:09,479 Speaker 1: There, James Boyd in thirty five Minutes, Tom Crean in 2138 01:31:09,800 --> 01:31:13,000 Speaker 1: five Fan Morning Show Today, the Misfits.

We are rolling into the 2142 01:31:23,920 --> 01:31:26,839 Speaker 1: nine o'clock hour. It is one of the best weeks 2143 01:31:26,960 --> 01:31:29,479 Speaker 1: of the year, and for the first time in over 2144 01:31:29,520 --> 01:31:34,000 Speaker 1: a decade, it'll be plenty of fans infiltrating a great 2145 01:31:34,000 --> 01:31:37,680 Speaker 1: city of Indianapolis for the final four. A man that 2146 01:31:37,800 --> 01:31:40,880 Speaker 1: has experienced that as a head coach, and if I'm 2147 01:31:40,920 --> 01:31:43,040 Speaker 1: not mistaken, I want to say their first two games 2148 01:31:43,720 --> 01:31:48,080 Speaker 1: of that three run was at the RCAA Doomele's head 2149 01:31:48,080 --> 01:31:50,160 Speaker 1: of the Payloft Lookers hotline right now. He's one of 2150 01:31:50,160 --> 01:31:52,840 Speaker 1: our favorite guests. He's the former IU coach. He is 2151 01:31:52,920 --> 01:31:53,760 Speaker 1: Tom Crean coach. 2152 01:31:53,880 --> 01:31:54,320 Speaker 2: Is that right? 2153 01:31:54,360 --> 01:31:57,519 Speaker 1: You guys beat Missouri if memory serves at the dome? 2154 01:31:57,680 --> 01:31:58,120 Speaker 3: Is that right? 2155 01:31:59,200 --> 01:32:03,560 Speaker 7: Absolutely? Holy Cross? In the first game on a Thursday, 2156 01:32:03,680 --> 01:32:08,280 Speaker 7: and then we beat Missouri in overtime inside of that dome. 2157 01:32:08,320 --> 01:32:11,599 Speaker 7: A player that Missouri had, Ricky Paulding, missed a shot 2158 01:32:11,640 --> 01:32:14,280 Speaker 7: at the buzzer and it put the game into overtime. 2159 01:32:14,479 --> 01:32:17,800 Speaker 7: And we've done We did something that I've never been 2160 01:32:17,840 --> 01:32:20,559 Speaker 7: a part of before. Since we went ten for ten 2161 01:32:21,240 --> 01:32:23,040 Speaker 7: in the overtime and we won the game. 2162 01:32:23,840 --> 01:32:27,280 Speaker 1: God, what a time to come up clutch there? What 2163 01:32:27,479 --> 01:32:29,400 Speaker 1: was I guess let's stick here for just a second. 2164 01:32:29,720 --> 01:32:31,680 Speaker 1: You hear this a lot about Super Bowl week, and 2165 01:32:31,880 --> 01:32:34,120 Speaker 1: I get the preparation times a little bit different. But 2166 01:32:35,680 --> 01:32:38,479 Speaker 1: did you find the break in between the elite eight 2167 01:32:38,640 --> 01:32:41,920 Speaker 1: in the Final four challenging at all from a head 2168 01:32:41,960 --> 01:32:44,559 Speaker 1: coach standpoint and getting your guys kind of locked in 2169 01:32:44,600 --> 01:32:45,479 Speaker 1: come Saturday night? 2170 01:32:47,040 --> 01:32:50,519 Speaker 7: Well, I think when we were in the practices, we 2171 01:32:50,520 --> 01:32:53,719 Speaker 7: were really good because we'd had a little issue between 2172 01:32:53,760 --> 01:32:57,240 Speaker 7: Missouri and Pittsburgh and the Sweet sixteen with kind of 2173 01:32:57,240 --> 01:33:00,800 Speaker 7: feeling ourselves a little bit and almost to the point 2174 01:33:00,840 --> 01:33:03,680 Speaker 7: where we had gone as far as we thought we 2175 01:33:03,760 --> 01:33:06,000 Speaker 7: could go, you know, with our practice habit, and that 2176 01:33:06,160 --> 01:33:08,840 Speaker 7: wasn't the case. And I think we got shook out 2177 01:33:08,840 --> 01:33:11,840 Speaker 7: of that after the Pittsburgh practice or the night day 2178 01:33:11,880 --> 01:33:14,840 Speaker 7: before Pittsburgh, I should say, we win that game, We 2179 01:33:14,880 --> 01:33:18,000 Speaker 7: win the Kentucky game, so we were really locked into basketball, 2180 01:33:18,560 --> 01:33:20,439 Speaker 7: and so I didn't really have the issues with that. 2181 01:33:20,560 --> 01:33:23,960 Speaker 7: But there's just so many people around and it's so 2182 01:33:24,040 --> 01:33:28,280 Speaker 7: much more now because that was pre Twitter, and that 2183 01:33:28,479 --> 01:33:31,479 Speaker 7: was pre anybody can be a journalist, right. I mean 2184 01:33:31,520 --> 01:33:34,160 Speaker 7: it was just it was all the networks were camped out. 2185 01:33:34,800 --> 01:33:38,360 Speaker 7: It was a big deal. And I think just the 2186 01:33:39,200 --> 01:33:43,160 Speaker 7: pageantry of it can soften you up a little bit. 2187 01:33:43,240 --> 01:33:46,240 Speaker 7: And I think that's why the level of practice, the 2188 01:33:46,320 --> 01:33:49,000 Speaker 7: level of your film study. As a coach and a 2189 01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:52,240 Speaker 7: coaching staff, I mean, you can't get off scripts or 2190 01:33:52,320 --> 01:33:55,320 Speaker 7: out of character on what's most important, and that's to 2191 01:33:55,400 --> 01:33:57,600 Speaker 7: go into that tournament and be ready to win. But 2192 01:33:58,200 --> 01:34:00,160 Speaker 7: those things didn't hurt us. We just ran in to 2193 01:34:00,200 --> 01:34:02,320 Speaker 7: a really good Kansas team and we missed a bunch 2194 01:34:02,360 --> 01:34:05,559 Speaker 7: of close shots inside of that game. And if you 2195 01:34:05,640 --> 01:34:07,960 Speaker 7: miss close shots and your bigs are around the basket 2196 01:34:08,000 --> 01:34:10,200 Speaker 7: and the running game that Kansas had, we just couldn't 2197 01:34:10,200 --> 01:34:12,360 Speaker 7: stop it. So a lot of things got to go 2198 01:34:12,439 --> 01:34:14,720 Speaker 7: right in those games. But the week of preparation is 2199 01:34:14,760 --> 01:34:17,040 Speaker 7: really making sure that you do not get away from 2200 01:34:17,120 --> 01:34:20,080 Speaker 7: what got you there, and you keep getting that across 2201 01:34:20,120 --> 01:34:21,080 Speaker 7: as much as you can. 2202 01:34:21,640 --> 01:34:21,880 Speaker 3: Coach. 2203 01:34:21,920 --> 01:34:24,519 Speaker 4: You were my eyes for quite a few of the games, 2204 01:34:24,520 --> 01:34:27,160 Speaker 4: as you were on the call nationally for a lot 2205 01:34:27,160 --> 01:34:29,000 Speaker 4: of the tournaments. I was making my drive to and 2206 01:34:29,040 --> 01:34:32,320 Speaker 4: from Florida, so very much appreciate that you're also in 2207 01:34:32,360 --> 01:34:37,360 Speaker 4: the building for the Yukon Duke game. Your thoughts, your 2208 01:34:37,400 --> 01:34:41,759 Speaker 4: immediate reaction of the Braylin Mullens game winner, Well. 2209 01:34:41,760 --> 01:34:44,160 Speaker 7: Obviously I had a great view of it and seeing 2210 01:34:44,200 --> 01:34:46,280 Speaker 7: it all happen, and my initu reaction was to look 2211 01:34:46,320 --> 01:34:48,679 Speaker 7: at the replay right away, because we've got a replay 2212 01:34:49,400 --> 01:34:53,599 Speaker 7: on a replay monitor right next to us, so I've 2213 01:34:53,640 --> 01:34:56,800 Speaker 7: seen some pictures since of that shot that I'm in 2214 01:34:56,800 --> 01:34:59,400 Speaker 7: the background of it. I'm looking dead at the replay. 2215 01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:02,200 Speaker 7: I wasn't as stunned as you want to just make 2216 01:35:02,240 --> 01:35:05,960 Speaker 7: sure it counts, because in radio, the most important two 2217 01:35:06,040 --> 01:35:09,640 Speaker 7: words are a layout, right like, Once something like that happens, 2218 01:35:10,280 --> 01:35:13,960 Speaker 7: it's the play by plays man's job to just take 2219 01:35:14,000 --> 01:35:16,000 Speaker 7: it and run with it. So it wasn't like I 2220 01:35:16,040 --> 01:35:17,760 Speaker 7: was getting ready to say something. I just wanted to 2221 01:35:17,800 --> 01:35:20,640 Speaker 7: make sure it counted. And it was incredible. And the 2222 01:35:20,680 --> 01:35:23,639 Speaker 7: thing that stuck out to me was just how picture 2223 01:35:23,720 --> 01:35:26,600 Speaker 7: perfect Braylan Mullen shot that ball. I mean like he 2224 01:35:26,640 --> 01:35:30,360 Speaker 7: didn't hero shoot it, he didn't fade, he didn't shoot 2225 01:35:30,400 --> 01:35:33,960 Speaker 7: some cute shot. He shot a jump shot and it 2226 01:35:34,000 --> 01:35:37,240 Speaker 7: was just right place, right time for those guys with 2227 01:35:37,360 --> 01:35:40,080 Speaker 7: the steal in deflections and with Alex Caraban having the 2228 01:35:40,120 --> 01:35:43,439 Speaker 7: presence of mind of knowing the clock and knowing he 2229 01:35:43,479 --> 01:35:46,479 Speaker 7: didn't have as good a shot as his teammate did, 2230 01:35:46,600 --> 01:35:49,400 Speaker 7: and that assists. As great as the shot is, that 2231 01:35:49,600 --> 01:35:52,240 Speaker 7: is one of the most valuable assists that the NCAA 2232 01:35:52,320 --> 01:35:53,400 Speaker 7: tournament's ever seen. 2233 01:35:54,400 --> 01:35:57,360 Speaker 1: I think that's super super well well said, especially players 2234 01:35:57,360 --> 01:35:59,880 Speaker 1: accomplished as Caravan is. He easily could have taken that shot. 2235 01:36:00,000 --> 01:36:01,599 Speaker 1: I don't think Teamate would have had an I that's 2236 01:36:01,600 --> 01:36:03,560 Speaker 1: Tom Crete. Of course, he was on the West with 2237 01:36:03,720 --> 01:36:06,200 Speaker 1: one call. And we're getting ready for the Final four 2238 01:36:06,280 --> 01:36:09,920 Speaker 1: coming up this weekend. Let's go to the second game 2239 01:36:09,920 --> 01:36:13,360 Speaker 1: on Saturday night, coach Michigan in Arizona. To me, it's 2240 01:36:13,400 --> 01:36:15,000 Speaker 1: one of the more marquee matchups we've had in the 2241 01:36:15,040 --> 01:36:18,800 Speaker 1: Final four in quite some time. Does your overall thoughts 2242 01:36:18,840 --> 01:36:20,720 Speaker 1: in what I think has all the makings to be 2243 01:36:20,800 --> 01:36:21,839 Speaker 1: a great, great game. 2244 01:36:22,800 --> 01:36:26,080 Speaker 7: Well, it does. And to beat Michigan, no matter who 2245 01:36:26,080 --> 01:36:28,439 Speaker 7: it is, you've really got to attack their big men. 2246 01:36:29,120 --> 01:36:30,960 Speaker 7: And that that's what produed a couple. 2247 01:36:30,800 --> 01:36:33,520 Speaker 1: Of weeks ago when they when. 2248 01:36:32,840 --> 01:36:35,960 Speaker 7: The Big ten tournament championship is they just went at 2249 01:36:37,520 --> 01:36:40,559 Speaker 7: his body and they spaced out the Bigs and made 2250 01:36:40,560 --> 01:36:44,160 Speaker 7: them chase on the perimeter. They ran pick and roll. 2251 01:36:45,240 --> 01:36:49,640 Speaker 7: Arizona is definitely physical enough, without question, there's physical as 2252 01:36:49,640 --> 01:36:52,519 Speaker 7: anybody in the country to match up at a game like that. 2253 01:36:52,560 --> 01:36:55,040 Speaker 7: But to beat Michigan, you've got to do something different, 2254 01:36:55,640 --> 01:36:59,040 Speaker 7: and they're not as good in the ball screen game 2255 01:36:59,120 --> 01:37:02,080 Speaker 7: a Dai maris because he gets to that drop coverage, 2256 01:37:02,920 --> 01:37:05,160 Speaker 7: which means he's just backed off the ball and he's 2257 01:37:05,560 --> 01:37:09,320 Speaker 7: putting a lot of pressure on the pull up jump 2258 01:37:09,320 --> 01:37:12,439 Speaker 7: shot or the pressure on him is what happens after 2259 01:37:12,479 --> 01:37:16,760 Speaker 7: his man sets the screen. And so the Michigan offense 2260 01:37:17,080 --> 01:37:19,320 Speaker 7: is it is at a high level right now because 2261 01:37:19,360 --> 01:37:22,439 Speaker 7: Jackson Lendenberg is playing like a guard, but he can 2262 01:37:22,479 --> 01:37:24,599 Speaker 7: also play like a power forward. I mean, so that 2263 01:37:24,680 --> 01:37:29,719 Speaker 7: matchup is really tough. But Arizona has got is good 2264 01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:34,679 Speaker 7: the eight players as anybody in this tournament, and they 2265 01:37:34,720 --> 01:37:37,600 Speaker 7: have numerous ways that they can hurt you. They just 2266 01:37:37,640 --> 01:37:41,200 Speaker 7: don't have the Bigs they can step outside and make three, 2267 01:37:41,280 --> 01:37:42,880 Speaker 7: So they're gonna have to be really good in the 2268 01:37:42,920 --> 01:37:45,680 Speaker 7: pick and roll game, getting the ball thrown back to 2269 01:37:45,720 --> 01:37:49,640 Speaker 7: the Bigs, attacking, playing going at their bodies inside and 2270 01:37:49,680 --> 01:37:51,439 Speaker 7: that'll be a good game because if you let the 2271 01:37:51,439 --> 01:37:54,200 Speaker 7: big men roam free for Michigan that they're really hard 2272 01:37:54,200 --> 01:37:54,519 Speaker 7: to beat. 2273 01:37:55,400 --> 01:37:58,000 Speaker 4: Tom Green joining us on the Paylofts Ligers Hotline coach. 2274 01:37:58,000 --> 01:38:00,160 Speaker 4: I don't want to forget about the undercard because a 2275 01:38:00,160 --> 01:38:02,720 Speaker 4: lot of people are looking at Arizona and Michigan and 2276 01:38:02,800 --> 01:38:05,320 Speaker 4: saying that's that's the heavyweight fight right there. I don't 2277 01:38:05,320 --> 01:38:07,120 Speaker 4: want to. I think you kind Illinois is a pretty 2278 01:38:07,120 --> 01:38:09,080 Speaker 4: solid matchup as well. I want to get your thoughts 2279 01:38:09,280 --> 01:38:11,320 Speaker 4: on how do you think you kind of Illinois looks 2280 01:38:11,360 --> 01:38:12,400 Speaker 4: on Saturday afternoon. 2281 01:38:13,240 --> 01:38:16,400 Speaker 7: Well, people just have to remember and you're right, it's 2282 01:38:16,400 --> 01:38:18,719 Speaker 7: going to be a week of looking at Arizona, Michigan 2283 01:38:18,880 --> 01:38:22,080 Speaker 7: and then Yukon Illinois. You can't do that in this tournament. 2284 01:38:22,120 --> 01:38:24,479 Speaker 7: I mean you can't do it in any final four, 2285 01:38:24,560 --> 01:38:26,759 Speaker 7: but you certainly can't do it in this Remember Houston 2286 01:38:26,840 --> 01:38:30,000 Speaker 7: last year had a huge lead in the in the 2287 01:38:30,200 --> 01:38:33,760 Speaker 7: in the second half against Florida and lost the lead 2288 01:38:33,880 --> 01:38:37,760 Speaker 7: basically because they couldn't manipulate getting to the foul line 2289 01:38:37,880 --> 01:38:40,240 Speaker 7: enough and a lot and and shot a lot of 2290 01:38:40,320 --> 01:38:43,120 Speaker 7: jump shots and didn't create a lot of contact. So 2291 01:38:43,600 --> 01:38:46,799 Speaker 7: when you get into the games anything can truly happen, 2292 01:38:46,840 --> 01:38:50,080 Speaker 7: and Illinois and Yukon are definitely good enough to win 2293 01:38:50,120 --> 01:38:52,400 Speaker 7: this tournament because you remember, you only got to be 2294 01:38:52,400 --> 01:38:55,360 Speaker 7: better than the other team once, and that sounds goofy, 2295 01:38:55,400 --> 01:38:58,120 Speaker 7: but that's the truth, and so you just you just 2296 01:38:58,200 --> 01:39:02,280 Speaker 7: have to have really good game plans. But Yukon for Illinois, 2297 01:39:02,560 --> 01:39:05,320 Speaker 7: it'll be like Illinois who's already faced Yukon this year 2298 01:39:05,320 --> 01:39:07,800 Speaker 7: and lost to them, But it'll be like facing a 2299 01:39:07,840 --> 01:39:11,000 Speaker 7: Michigan State team or a Purdue team with how much 2300 01:39:11,040 --> 01:39:14,360 Speaker 7: they run their offense and how much they screen. Like 2301 01:39:14,439 --> 01:39:18,000 Speaker 7: I think the screening of Yukon, and I said this 2302 01:39:18,120 --> 01:39:22,200 Speaker 7: different times on the broadcast, it really hurt Duke. It 2303 01:39:22,280 --> 01:39:26,200 Speaker 7: hurt Cam Boozer having to chase around those screens constantly, 2304 01:39:26,280 --> 01:39:28,479 Speaker 7: because what happens when you're not used to seeing all 2305 01:39:28,520 --> 01:39:32,080 Speaker 7: those screens you run into them. And now Illinois has 2306 01:39:32,120 --> 01:39:35,479 Speaker 7: seen that. But they're going to put Illinois through more 2307 01:39:35,520 --> 01:39:39,360 Speaker 7: screens than even Michigan State or Perdue do and they're 2308 01:39:39,400 --> 01:39:40,879 Speaker 7: really really hard to navigate. 2309 01:39:40,920 --> 01:39:41,040 Speaker 1: That. 2310 01:39:41,200 --> 01:39:45,160 Speaker 7: Now, can Yukon win if they're one for whatever, one 2311 01:39:45,200 --> 01:39:48,559 Speaker 7: for eighteen deep into the game in the final four 2312 01:39:48,640 --> 01:39:51,160 Speaker 7: and Indie versus All that length and size and shooting 2313 01:39:51,840 --> 01:39:55,840 Speaker 7: of Illinois. Probably not, but there's no reason to believe 2314 01:39:55,880 --> 01:39:58,280 Speaker 7: that they're gonna They said they just missed a bunch 2315 01:39:58,320 --> 01:40:00,160 Speaker 7: of open shots the other day. But I think that 2316 01:40:00,200 --> 01:40:02,280 Speaker 7: game is going to be great. I think you're going 2317 01:40:02,360 --> 01:40:06,040 Speaker 7: to see two outstanding freshmen and Rayland Mullins obviously from Greenfield, 2318 01:40:06,400 --> 01:40:09,719 Speaker 7: and Keaton Wogler, who is probably going to go higher 2319 01:40:09,720 --> 01:40:13,800 Speaker 7: in this draft than most people are even possibly anticipating 2320 01:40:13,880 --> 01:40:16,360 Speaker 7: right now. I mean, I think he's that good. So 2321 01:40:16,680 --> 01:40:20,240 Speaker 7: it's a game of great size, really good guard play. 2322 01:40:22,280 --> 01:40:24,479 Speaker 7: That game at the end of the day, to me, 2323 01:40:25,439 --> 01:40:28,560 Speaker 7: will come down to the point guard play of Storyokovich 2324 01:40:28,640 --> 01:40:33,719 Speaker 7: and Kylin Boswell versus Malachi Smith and Sallas Lamari Junior. 2325 01:40:33,760 --> 01:40:38,800 Speaker 7: Whichever point guard crew had a better overall game, it's 2326 01:40:38,840 --> 01:40:40,320 Speaker 7: probably going to be the winner of that game. 2327 01:40:41,080 --> 01:40:43,760 Speaker 4: Tom Crean on the Payloss Slickers phone line with us 2328 01:40:43,840 --> 01:40:46,000 Speaker 4: right now, Tom, we're gonna get your thoughts on how 2329 01:40:46,040 --> 01:40:48,080 Speaker 4: you think Saturday plays out momentarily. But I want to 2330 01:40:48,080 --> 01:40:50,360 Speaker 4: get your thoughts on produced season coming to an end 2331 01:40:50,800 --> 01:40:51,479 Speaker 4: on Saturday. 2332 01:40:51,479 --> 01:40:53,080 Speaker 2: How will you remember. 2333 01:40:53,040 --> 01:40:56,560 Speaker 4: This era of Purdue basketball didn't see a national championship, 2334 01:40:56,760 --> 01:40:59,519 Speaker 4: but you had some pretty deep runs into March. He 2335 01:40:59,600 --> 01:41:03,280 Speaker 4: will you remember the Braden Smith Zach edy eras at Purdue. 2336 01:41:04,000 --> 01:41:06,680 Speaker 7: Well, they did play for a national championship, which so many, 2337 01:41:07,040 --> 01:41:09,960 Speaker 7: very few people can ever say that, And so I 2338 01:41:10,000 --> 01:41:12,799 Speaker 7: think that team did a fantastic job. I think Matt 2339 01:41:12,880 --> 01:41:16,040 Speaker 7: is one of the absolute best coaches in the country. 2340 01:41:16,120 --> 01:41:19,439 Speaker 7: I mean, he's in if you're picking, if you're using 2341 01:41:19,479 --> 01:41:21,720 Speaker 7: one hand to pick the top five coaches, there's not 2342 01:41:21,800 --> 01:41:23,600 Speaker 7: a doubt in my mind he's in that hand, and 2343 01:41:23,640 --> 01:41:26,200 Speaker 7: he's a lot closer to the top of it than 2344 01:41:26,280 --> 01:41:28,639 Speaker 7: fourth or fifth. I mean, he's just an outstanding coach. 2345 01:41:28,680 --> 01:41:34,280 Speaker 7: You understand his teams, understands what buttons to push, doesn't 2346 01:41:34,280 --> 01:41:37,840 Speaker 7: get too caught up in the emotion one way or 2347 01:41:37,840 --> 01:41:40,400 Speaker 7: of the other of the way this season is going. 2348 01:41:40,920 --> 01:41:45,360 Speaker 7: And I think what he did after losing in the 2349 01:41:45,880 --> 01:41:48,559 Speaker 7: Big Ten, after losing the last game of the year, 2350 01:41:48,560 --> 01:41:50,640 Speaker 7: and then go and winning that Big Ten tournament championship 2351 01:41:50,640 --> 01:41:54,120 Speaker 7: and getting to the other day, that speaks volumes about 2352 01:41:54,240 --> 01:42:00,240 Speaker 7: that group's resiliency responsibility. That they had to like each 2353 01:42:00,280 --> 01:42:05,320 Speaker 7: other into that program to get over whatever was bothering 2354 01:42:05,320 --> 01:42:08,160 Speaker 7: them or hurting them or keeping them from being successful 2355 01:42:08,720 --> 01:42:11,639 Speaker 7: and figure it back out, and they just got beat 2356 01:42:11,720 --> 01:42:14,559 Speaker 7: by a team that just had more than them the 2357 01:42:14,600 --> 01:42:18,760 Speaker 7: other night, and so that was not. More often than not, 2358 01:42:19,360 --> 01:42:22,679 Speaker 7: this group will be remembered for when they didn't win. 2359 01:42:23,200 --> 01:42:26,760 Speaker 7: It wasn't that they lost the game themselves, it was 2360 01:42:26,800 --> 01:42:29,720 Speaker 7: that somebody just beat them. And I think that's one 2361 01:42:29,720 --> 01:42:31,400 Speaker 7: of the great things you can say. But they sure 2362 01:42:31,439 --> 01:42:33,920 Speaker 7: had a heck of a lot more wins than they 2363 01:42:33,920 --> 01:42:37,800 Speaker 7: did anything else. And I think at some point, I 2364 01:42:37,840 --> 01:42:42,920 Speaker 7: think you would see some type of honoring for Braden Smith, 2365 01:42:43,000 --> 01:42:45,360 Speaker 7: let your lawyer, and Trey Kaufman Wren where they are 2366 01:42:45,560 --> 01:42:49,800 Speaker 7: honored and looked at together and deservedly. So yeah, I. 2367 01:42:49,800 --> 01:42:51,040 Speaker 2: Would agree on that. Again. 2368 01:42:51,080 --> 01:42:54,080 Speaker 1: Tom Creane with us here on the Payloffs Sickers Hotline 2369 01:42:54,080 --> 01:42:58,200 Speaker 1: Final four week Alive and well in Indy. Coach, another 2370 01:42:58,280 --> 01:43:02,280 Speaker 1: year for Indiana comes in without an NCAA tournament birth, 2371 01:43:02,280 --> 01:43:04,320 Speaker 1: without an nca tournament victory, of course, and you know, 2372 01:43:04,400 --> 01:43:06,840 Speaker 1: I found myself kind of looking back, and you know, 2373 01:43:06,880 --> 01:43:10,160 Speaker 1: I think it's been six coaches since the Bot Night era, 2374 01:43:10,360 --> 01:43:14,519 Speaker 1: and undoubtedly it was your era that has had the 2375 01:43:14,520 --> 01:43:17,519 Speaker 1: most success of any of them. And you walked in there, 2376 01:43:17,520 --> 01:43:21,240 Speaker 1: of course under you know, frankly, roster. Hell, what do 2377 01:43:21,280 --> 01:43:23,799 Speaker 1: you think it was about your guys plan, your guys process. 2378 01:43:23,880 --> 01:43:26,320 Speaker 1: Certainly a process that had to evolve from the first 2379 01:43:26,360 --> 01:43:29,400 Speaker 1: couple of years that led to success that really no 2380 01:43:29,439 --> 01:43:31,360 Speaker 1: one else in the program has been able to replicate 2381 01:43:31,400 --> 01:43:32,800 Speaker 1: in the last twenty years. 2382 01:43:33,720 --> 01:43:35,720 Speaker 7: Well, the times were so different and so there was 2383 01:43:35,800 --> 01:43:38,200 Speaker 7: no way with what we dealt with would happen to 2384 01:43:38,240 --> 01:43:40,800 Speaker 7: build an entirely new roster. There was no way to 2385 01:43:40,840 --> 01:43:44,040 Speaker 7: get old or get big, and I shouldn't say that big, 2386 01:43:44,360 --> 01:43:47,880 Speaker 7: get old or get really good really quick. You know, 2387 01:43:47,920 --> 01:43:51,759 Speaker 7: there was no portal, there was no nil type stuff. 2388 01:43:51,840 --> 01:43:54,479 Speaker 7: I mean, I'm not even sure we might have had 2389 01:43:54,520 --> 01:43:57,559 Speaker 7: grand transfers back then that I'm sure if we did. 2390 01:43:57,760 --> 01:43:59,680 Speaker 7: But the bottom line is we had to have a 2391 01:43:59,720 --> 01:44:04,400 Speaker 7: true rebuild, like an old school rebuild that nobody, nobody 2392 01:44:04,400 --> 01:44:06,960 Speaker 7: would ever get the time to do anymore because there's 2393 01:44:06,960 --> 01:44:08,760 Speaker 7: no reason for it. You have too many ways that 2394 01:44:08,800 --> 01:44:11,720 Speaker 7: you can get your team better. The bottom line is 2395 01:44:11,800 --> 01:44:15,160 Speaker 7: we wanted to recruit to build a team that could 2396 01:44:15,200 --> 01:44:18,040 Speaker 7: win the Big Ten because if you felt you could win, 2397 01:44:18,160 --> 01:44:19,640 Speaker 7: we felt that you could win the Big Ten and 2398 01:44:19,680 --> 01:44:22,680 Speaker 7: you could play for the national championship, and I just 2399 01:44:22,720 --> 01:44:26,439 Speaker 7: think every step we took was about making sure that 2400 01:44:27,120 --> 01:44:30,760 Speaker 7: we were bringing in guys that that were that you 2401 01:44:30,800 --> 01:44:34,680 Speaker 7: could improve with, that that wanted to improve, that had 2402 01:44:34,720 --> 01:44:38,599 Speaker 7: a hunger, and whether they were from Indiana or not, 2403 01:44:39,360 --> 01:44:42,519 Speaker 7: they had the mental capacity to come in there and 2404 01:44:42,600 --> 01:44:46,240 Speaker 7: realize Indiana is really special and it's a big deal 2405 01:44:46,320 --> 01:44:49,840 Speaker 7: to be here. And you may screw up here and 2406 01:44:49,840 --> 01:44:53,000 Speaker 7: there in your life, but man, nothing's bigger than this program. 2407 01:44:53,600 --> 01:44:55,559 Speaker 7: And we really worked hard at that, and I thought 2408 01:44:55,560 --> 01:44:58,480 Speaker 7: we recruited to that and then our individual player development 2409 01:44:58,520 --> 01:45:01,479 Speaker 7: of just being locked in day in and day out 2410 01:45:01,520 --> 01:45:04,240 Speaker 7: to their improvement, you know. And I always saw myself 2411 01:45:04,280 --> 01:45:07,000 Speaker 7: as the lead player development coach, right like I wasn't 2412 01:45:07,040 --> 01:45:09,800 Speaker 7: I had other really good coaches, but I wasn't going 2413 01:45:09,880 --> 01:45:12,120 Speaker 7: to miss those days. I was not going to miss 2414 01:45:12,160 --> 01:45:14,679 Speaker 7: when we were out with one guy to work out, 2415 01:45:14,760 --> 01:45:16,720 Speaker 7: or four guys to work out, or three guys to 2416 01:45:16,800 --> 01:45:18,679 Speaker 7: work out. And I think over the period of time, 2417 01:45:19,320 --> 01:45:22,160 Speaker 7: that's what it is. We kept a very very hands 2418 01:45:22,320 --> 01:45:25,559 Speaker 7: on approach to everything that we were trying to do 2419 01:45:25,600 --> 01:45:27,479 Speaker 7: in the program. And it doesn't mean we didn't lose, 2420 01:45:27,520 --> 01:45:30,280 Speaker 7: and it doesn't mean that we had all great days, 2421 01:45:30,479 --> 01:45:33,280 Speaker 7: but we were not going to leave to chance the 2422 01:45:33,400 --> 01:45:36,719 Speaker 7: level of improvement that was needed to compete at this level. 2423 01:45:37,000 --> 01:45:39,200 Speaker 7: And for the most part, a lot of times we did. 2424 01:45:40,360 --> 01:45:42,400 Speaker 4: Tom Crean with us for another couple of minutes on 2425 01:45:42,479 --> 01:45:44,240 Speaker 4: the Payoff Lakers Hotline. Tom, We'll get you out on 2426 01:45:44,280 --> 01:45:47,400 Speaker 4: this question. Two part question, how do you see Monday 2427 01:45:47,479 --> 01:45:49,360 Speaker 4: night playing or I'm sorry, how do you see Saturday 2428 01:45:49,439 --> 01:45:52,040 Speaker 4: night playing out? And then who he's playing on Monday? 2429 01:45:52,040 --> 01:45:54,160 Speaker 4: And who's walking out of Indies champions. 2430 01:45:54,720 --> 01:45:57,040 Speaker 7: You know, I'm really not good with predictions. I'm not 2431 01:45:57,280 --> 01:46:01,520 Speaker 7: and I just don't I think it. There's too much uncertainty. 2432 01:46:01,640 --> 01:46:03,840 Speaker 7: There really is. I would tell you what I would 2433 01:46:03,880 --> 01:46:07,160 Speaker 7: be looking at in these games, and you really can 2434 01:46:07,240 --> 01:46:09,759 Speaker 7: look across the tournament and see this to be true. 2435 01:46:10,320 --> 01:46:13,040 Speaker 7: Like the other night when Houston lost to Illinois, they 2436 01:46:13,040 --> 01:46:16,760 Speaker 7: shot two free throws the entire night. Now, Houston had 2437 01:46:16,800 --> 01:46:20,639 Speaker 7: been in the three fifties, okay, and there's like three 2438 01:46:20,680 --> 01:46:23,160 Speaker 7: hundred and sixty twos. They're in a sixty three Division 2439 01:46:23,160 --> 01:46:26,320 Speaker 7: one schools in free throw rate, which means they weren't 2440 01:46:26,400 --> 01:46:28,439 Speaker 7: used to getting to the free throw line right. They 2441 01:46:28,439 --> 01:46:32,000 Speaker 7: didn't get there a lot based on their offense. Those 2442 01:46:32,040 --> 01:46:33,960 Speaker 7: are the things that you look at. Who's getting to 2443 01:46:34,040 --> 01:46:37,080 Speaker 7: the foul line all right? Where the points off turnovers 2444 01:46:37,080 --> 01:46:40,240 Speaker 7: are Like a great example the other day Duke and Yukon. 2445 01:46:41,360 --> 01:46:45,240 Speaker 7: In the second half, Duke had eight turnovers to one 2446 01:46:45,320 --> 01:46:48,040 Speaker 7: turnover for Yukon, and I think the points might have 2447 01:46:48,120 --> 01:46:51,800 Speaker 7: been fourteen to zero in the second half. And so like, 2448 01:46:52,400 --> 01:46:57,120 Speaker 7: those things are real. Rebound margin, second chance points, those 2449 01:46:57,200 --> 01:47:00,200 Speaker 7: things are real. It's not just about how you shoot it, 2450 01:47:00,640 --> 01:47:03,639 Speaker 7: because the shooting percentages can get skewed by those layups 2451 01:47:03,720 --> 01:47:07,080 Speaker 7: or by those runouts and rebounds. If there's ever a 2452 01:47:07,120 --> 01:47:10,920 Speaker 7: time that the hustle game matters, it's the higher you 2453 01:47:10,960 --> 01:47:15,360 Speaker 7: go up the ladder in basketball. And so if people 2454 01:47:15,360 --> 01:47:17,720 Speaker 7: are looking to see who they think is going to win, 2455 01:47:17,720 --> 01:47:21,520 Speaker 7: you've got to really really study those points off turnovers, 2456 01:47:21,680 --> 01:47:25,240 Speaker 7: second chance points. Who gets to the foul line on 2457 01:47:25,320 --> 01:47:29,280 Speaker 7: a consistent level. Another example Duke the other day, in 2458 01:47:29,400 --> 01:47:33,439 Speaker 7: three previous games, they had been eighteen of twenty three 2459 01:47:33,520 --> 01:47:36,800 Speaker 7: on average from the foul line, where their three opponents 2460 01:47:36,800 --> 01:47:41,000 Speaker 7: had been on average five out of eight. It's crazy, right, Well, 2461 01:47:41,080 --> 01:47:43,040 Speaker 7: Yukon got a couple more free throws in the game 2462 01:47:43,080 --> 01:47:45,439 Speaker 7: than Duke. They end up winning the game by one. 2463 01:47:46,160 --> 01:47:49,679 Speaker 7: Those things are the things that matter, and I focus 2464 01:47:49,760 --> 01:47:51,840 Speaker 7: on that more than who I think is in my 2465 01:47:51,960 --> 01:47:52,840 Speaker 7: mind is going to win. 2466 01:47:53,160 --> 01:47:55,240 Speaker 1: Should be two great ones coming up on Saturday night 2467 01:47:55,240 --> 01:47:57,639 Speaker 1: and the man breaking it down for us, Tom Crean again, 2468 01:47:57,640 --> 01:48:00,120 Speaker 1: you heard him on Westwood One and his insights. I 2469 01:48:00,120 --> 01:48:03,519 Speaker 1: have been terrific to at the tournament and on these airwaves. Coach, 2470 01:48:03,600 --> 01:48:06,360 Speaker 1: Thank you so much. Best to the family and safe 2471 01:48:06,360 --> 01:48:07,080 Speaker 1: travels to Andy. 2472 01:48:07,840 --> 01:48:09,880 Speaker 7: Appreciate me. Ask how did I do be in your 2473 01:48:09,880 --> 01:48:11,679 Speaker 7: eyes on those trips? Is that good? 2474 01:48:12,520 --> 01:48:12,920 Speaker 2: Excellent? 2475 01:48:12,960 --> 01:48:16,200 Speaker 4: You and Scott Graham were outstanding. I thoroughly enjoyed the listen. 2476 01:48:16,240 --> 01:48:17,519 Speaker 4: It was very, very enjoyable. 2477 01:48:19,560 --> 01:48:22,880 Speaker 7: Ram his next level. I've been fortunate in all these 2478 01:48:22,920 --> 01:48:26,519 Speaker 7: all these UH broadcasting positions to work with some incredible 2479 01:48:26,520 --> 01:48:28,360 Speaker 7: play by play people. Scott was awesome. 2480 01:48:28,600 --> 01:48:30,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, you guys are incredible, very well done. 2481 01:48:30,800 --> 01:48:35,200 Speaker 7: All right, Well, good to hear. Makes my day. Thank you, thanks, coach, Yeah, 2482 01:48:35,200 --> 01:48:35,559 Speaker 7: thank you. 2483 01:48:35,720 --> 01:48:37,200 Speaker 1: That is Tom Crean right there on the pay list 2484 01:48:37,240 --> 01:48:39,760 Speaker 1: lickers hot line. You know I I would say this 2485 01:48:39,840 --> 01:48:42,160 Speaker 1: even if I didn't just hang with Tom Crean. He's 2486 01:48:42,240 --> 01:48:45,400 Speaker 1: one of my favorite college basketball analysts. And it's a 2487 01:48:45,439 --> 01:48:47,479 Speaker 1: bummer mark that I don't get to hear more of 2488 01:48:47,479 --> 01:48:48,960 Speaker 1: his games. It seems to be kind of a big 2489 01:48:49,000 --> 01:48:50,479 Speaker 1: twelve focus, and I know it doesn't he do a 2490 01:48:50,479 --> 01:48:51,559 Speaker 1: lot of Timberwolves stuff. 2491 01:48:51,640 --> 01:48:55,760 Speaker 2: Yes, so his schedule probably doesn't allow for the Robbi Hummel. 2492 01:48:56,120 --> 01:48:59,760 Speaker 1: Right type of quantity there. But I think he's really good. 2493 01:48:59,840 --> 01:49:01,600 Speaker 1: You know he did I you Marquette. I think it 2494 01:49:01,640 --> 01:49:05,280 Speaker 1: was earlier this season, and I just I enjoy it. Yeah, 2495 01:49:05,320 --> 01:49:07,040 Speaker 1: a few times he's been in a Notre Dame calls, 2496 01:49:07,080 --> 01:49:08,799 Speaker 1: I'm like, yes, I'm gonna learn something. 2497 01:49:08,920 --> 01:49:12,760 Speaker 4: So driving to Florida, I didn't mind the late tip 2498 01:49:12,800 --> 01:49:14,080 Speaker 4: times for games and everything like that. 2499 01:49:14,080 --> 01:49:15,000 Speaker 2: And I also really. 2500 01:49:14,920 --> 01:49:17,000 Speaker 4: Didn't mind it once I heard Tom Crean and Scott 2501 01:49:17,000 --> 01:49:18,920 Speaker 4: Graham on the call, because I'm like, I'm getting good 2502 01:49:18,960 --> 01:49:20,280 Speaker 4: in it and analysis. Like I said, they were my 2503 01:49:20,320 --> 01:49:22,680 Speaker 4: eyes and they painted a beautiful picture because they were 2504 01:49:22,680 --> 01:49:25,040 Speaker 4: giving me great breakdowns and analysis every single time. 2505 01:49:25,280 --> 01:49:28,160 Speaker 1: I think I've got some good I think IU basketball 2506 01:49:28,240 --> 01:49:31,120 Speaker 1: news we'll share here on a morning checkdown.

Here on three dot com is 2551 01:51:26,560 --> 01:51:30,840 Speaker 1: reporting that Trent Cisly will be back for his sophomore season. 2552 01:51:30,840 --> 01:51:33,280 Speaker 1: I think there are a lot of questions at Indiana 2553 01:51:33,280 --> 01:51:35,599 Speaker 1: about the lack of playing time. Darren Devreez is giving 2554 01:51:35,640 --> 01:51:38,880 Speaker 1: sicily there late in the season. But the freshman, I 2555 01:51:38,880 --> 01:51:41,120 Speaker 1: think he was close to a five star recruit, if 2556 01:51:41,160 --> 01:51:43,120 Speaker 1: not a five star, it sounds like he will be 2557 01:51:43,160 --> 01:51:44,880 Speaker 1: back for year two. Again, not a lot of roster 2558 01:51:44,960 --> 01:51:48,160 Speaker 1: retention for Indiana coming up in year two.

But 2592 01:53:03,560 --> 01:53:06,360 Speaker 1: the Pimento Chief sandwich is gonna pop up there, cluster truck. 2593 01:53:06,200 --> 01:53:07,960 Speaker 3: All right, I wait with baited breath. 2594 01:53:08,360 --> 01:53:10,240 Speaker 1: Speaking of waiting, we'll wait a few days for the 2595 01:53:10,240 --> 01:53:12,400 Speaker 1: women's Final four, but we know it'll be all one 2596 01:53:12,479 --> 01:53:16,080 Speaker 1: seeds and the four teams we saw last year actually 2597 01:53:16,120 --> 01:53:20,120 Speaker 1: the first time since I think they said twenty seventeen, 2598 01:53:20,320 --> 01:53:23,639 Speaker 1: maybe twenty eighteen. That does seem bad. All the one 2599 01:53:23,680 --> 01:53:25,760 Speaker 1: seeds make it. I would have thought we would have 2600 01:53:25,920 --> 01:53:28,920 Speaker 1: we had that sooner. I guess Caitlin Clark's Iowa teams 2601 01:53:28,960 --> 01:53:30,639 Speaker 1: weren't always the one seed and they got on a run. 2602 01:53:30,680 --> 01:53:33,920 Speaker 1: But Yukon South Carolina UCLA in Texas, that's what you're 2603 01:53:33,920 --> 01:53:36,320 Speaker 1: looking at from a women's bracket. None of the Laitia 2604 01:53:36,400 --> 01:53:39,559 Speaker 1: games were close at all. We mentioned transfer portal. Trent 2605 01:53:39,600 --> 01:53:43,840 Speaker 1: Sicily reportedly back to IU Finley Bizjack Butler, I'd say 2606 01:53:43,840 --> 01:53:46,360 Speaker 1: probably their second best player behind Michael Jai. This year 2607 01:53:46,640 --> 01:53:49,600 Speaker 1: he is entering the portal. I think he's flirted with 2608 01:53:49,680 --> 01:53:52,600 Speaker 1: it years past Texas kids, so we'll see where he 2609 01:53:52,680 --> 01:53:57,280 Speaker 1: ends up in the portal there for Butler, final four 2610 01:53:57,320 --> 01:54:01,720 Speaker 1: events really get started. I guess Thursday you'll have the 2611 01:54:01,800 --> 01:54:05,360 Speaker 1: NIT semi finals coming up at Hinkle. From a free standpoint, 2612 01:54:05,360 --> 01:54:07,519 Speaker 1: not only do you have concerts to going on just 2613 01:54:07,560 --> 01:54:11,639 Speaker 1: south of here, but mark that Friday open practice. Tom 2614 01:54:11,680 --> 01:54:14,120 Speaker 1: Green touched on it right there. We heard Luke Meredith 2615 01:54:14,400 --> 01:54:17,160 Speaker 1: Braylan Mullens high school coach at the eight o'clock hour. 2616 01:54:17,280 --> 01:54:20,160 Speaker 1: Those are free and I believe it's free parking at 2617 01:54:20,280 --> 01:54:23,280 Speaker 1: Lucas Oil Stadium on Friday, So I think Luke said, 2618 01:54:23,320 --> 01:54:26,000 Speaker 1: noon is when Yukon starts their practice over there at 2619 01:54:26,080 --> 01:54:29,479 Speaker 1: Lucas Oil. So those are free to the public here 2620 01:54:29,479 --> 01:54:31,920 Speaker 1: coming up on Friday. If I remember correctly, pretty much 2621 01:54:31,920 --> 01:54:33,560 Speaker 1: they go back to back, back to back to back 2622 01:54:33,560 --> 01:54:36,280 Speaker 1: to back, all four of those teams over there for 2623 01:54:36,280 --> 01:54:39,040 Speaker 1: their open practices. We'll have Sarah Meyer, the Great Sarah Meyer, 2624 01:54:39,400 --> 01:54:43,400 Speaker 1: joining us on the from the India Sports Corp. This 2625 01:54:43,480 --> 01:54:46,720 Speaker 1: time tomorrow. She will be chatting about all the fan 2626 01:54:46,840 --> 01:54:50,920 Speaker 1: related events to the Final four coming up this weekend. 2627 01:54:51,560 --> 01:54:53,880 Speaker 1: Pacers got nothing today, they got a practice, I should say. 2628 01:54:53,880 --> 01:54:56,200 Speaker 1: Then they're off Chicago. They've got the Bulls coming up 2629 01:54:56,240 --> 01:55:00,200 Speaker 1: tomorrow at the Hornets Friday, at the Calves on Sunday. 2630 01:55:00,960 --> 01:55:02,600 Speaker 1: And really that's about it. 2631 01:55:02,880 --> 01:55:04,600 Speaker 4: I was gonna say a NFL is announced that the 2632 01:55:05,120 --> 01:55:07,680 Speaker 4: usually I feel like they're scrambling for Hard Knocks teams 2633 01:55:07,680 --> 01:55:11,720 Speaker 4: for the Training Camp edition. Seattle Seahawks, defending Super Bowl champs, 2634 01:55:11,720 --> 01:55:14,839 Speaker 4: going to be the Hard Knocks training camp team this summer. 2635 01:55:14,880 --> 01:55:18,960 Speaker 1: So there you go. It'll be on August on HBO Max. Interesting, 2636 01:55:19,000 --> 01:55:21,200 Speaker 1: they've already announced the Patriots in twenty twenty seven. 2637 01:55:21,200 --> 01:55:23,560 Speaker 4: I like, how are they announcing these teams right out 2638 01:55:23,600 --> 01:55:25,040 Speaker 4: of the gate. I thought there's parameters. 2639 01:55:25,040 --> 01:55:27,720 Speaker 1: But I guess and I thought they I think this, 2640 01:55:27,760 --> 01:55:29,840 Speaker 1: so they used to do it. Wasn't it like you 2641 01:55:30,280 --> 01:55:33,320 Speaker 1: had to do a non playoff team? Was that a thing? 2642 01:55:33,400 --> 01:55:34,280 Speaker 3: Or am I imagining that? 2643 01:55:34,600 --> 01:55:37,000 Speaker 1: I think the previous rules were this, if you were 2644 01:55:37,040 --> 01:55:39,919 Speaker 1: a non playoff team but your head coach was returning 2645 01:55:39,960 --> 01:55:44,080 Speaker 1: for another season, you were eligible to be picked. Now 2646 01:55:44,160 --> 01:55:46,920 Speaker 1: you can always volunteer yourself for hard knocks. Sure, So 2647 01:55:47,000 --> 01:55:49,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's what's happening here, but basically, 2648 01:55:49,200 --> 01:55:52,040 Speaker 1: for example, the Colts could have been picked this year 2649 01:55:52,400 --> 01:55:54,840 Speaker 1: they missed the playoffs, but Chain Stikeen is not a 2650 01:55:54,880 --> 01:55:55,440 Speaker 1: new head coach. 2651 01:55:56,320 --> 01:55:57,760 Speaker 2: They would fall into that category. 2652 01:55:58,600 --> 01:56:01,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, so instead you get the you get the Seahawks 2653 01:56:01,280 --> 01:56:03,280 Speaker 4: this year, and I guess the Patriots in twenty twenty seven. 2654 01:56:03,280 --> 01:56:05,800 Speaker 4: So they're already lining up teams now in season wise, 2655 01:56:05,840 --> 01:56:09,120 Speaker 4: who knows what they're doing. Seem to be doing divisional teams. 2656 01:56:09,120 --> 01:56:11,680 Speaker 4: So maybe the Colts appear if they do an AFC South, 2657 01:56:12,080 --> 01:56:14,720 Speaker 4: you know, run around in the end season one. 2658 01:56:14,760 --> 01:56:15,240 Speaker 3: So we'll see. 2659 01:56:15,440 --> 01:56:16,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say 2660 01:56:16,760 --> 01:56:19,200 Speaker 1: Colts fans are probably content with no hard you're saying 2661 01:56:19,240 --> 01:56:21,360 Speaker 1: the AFC South might not be the draw that they're 2662 01:56:21,400 --> 01:56:21,880 Speaker 1: hoping for it. 2663 01:56:22,120 --> 01:56:22,920 Speaker 3: They might go elsewhere. 2664 01:56:23,000 --> 01:56:24,880 Speaker 1: I think the Colts have had their hard knocks history, 2665 01:56:24,960 --> 01:56:27,040 Speaker 1: and frankly they're trying to create some new history in 2666 01:56:27,080 --> 01:56:28,800 Speaker 1: the month of January than what they. 2667 01:56:28,800 --> 01:56:30,240 Speaker 2: Have here in yours past. 2668 01:56:30,280 --> 01:56:32,560 Speaker 1: Speaking of all that, James Boyd, he's gonna join us 2669 01:56:32,600 --> 01:56:33,840 Speaker 1: live from Arizona. 2670 01:56:33,960 --> 01:56:36,560 Speaker 2: We appreciate him waking up early. Did hear from Chris 2671 01:56:36,600 --> 01:56:37,440 Speaker 2: Ballard yesterday? 2672 01:56:37,440 --> 01:56:40,120 Speaker 1: Shane Stikeen later today, will chat with one of our own, 2673 01:56:40,200 --> 01:56:45,360 Speaker 1: James Boyd. Coming up next faking to Tom Crean for 2674 01:56:45,400 --> 01:56:47,640 Speaker 1: the insight. As always, that'll be up on the podcast. 2675 01:56:47,760 --> 01:56:52,920 Speaker 1: We add Luke Meredith, the high school coach of Braylan Mullens. 2676 01:56:53,600 --> 01:56:56,520 Speaker 1: Fun insight from him on kind of the Braylan Mullens story. 2677 01:56:56,560 --> 01:56:59,360 Speaker 1: The recruitment of Braylan Mullens, I know, is always a 2678 01:56:59,360 --> 01:57:02,440 Speaker 1: polarizing here in this state. So that'll be up on 2679 01:57:02,480 --> 01:57:06,080 Speaker 1: the podcast as well. It is the show of the Misfits. 2680 01:57:06,200 --> 01:57:09,320 Speaker 1: We have our captain not with us this morning. That 2681 01:57:09,320 --> 01:57:11,400 Speaker 1: would be Jeff Rickard. You'll hear him three to six 2682 01:57:11,440 --> 01:57:14,600 Speaker 1: actually this afternoon filling in for JMV. And we don't 2683 01:57:14,640 --> 01:57:18,720 Speaker 1: have our rising King of All Media either. 2684 01:57:20,040 --> 01:57:23,680 Speaker 4: Very disappointing. I feel like we're, you know, we're floating 2685 01:57:23,720 --> 01:57:26,200 Speaker 4: without an anchor right now. We are we are wealth 2686 01:57:26,280 --> 01:57:29,640 Speaker 4: taking on waves, taking on water. Floating would be maybe 2687 01:57:29,720 --> 01:57:31,680 Speaker 4: not the best statement. I think we're struggling right now. 2688 01:57:31,680 --> 01:57:34,680 Speaker 1: We are swimming upstream, but we're the ss minow in Jaws, 2689 01:57:34,720 --> 01:57:37,600 Speaker 1: and the shark is barreling towards us. I believe he 2690 01:57:37,720 --> 01:57:39,520 Speaker 1: is here, and he's probably like, dude, why the hell 2691 01:57:39,520 --> 01:57:41,000 Speaker 1: are you guys trying to make jokes right now? I 2692 01:57:41,000 --> 01:57:43,160 Speaker 1: got crusty eyes. This is the last thing I want 2693 01:57:43,200 --> 01:57:45,120 Speaker 1: to be doing. James Boyd's a good human, so he's 2694 01:57:45,160 --> 01:57:47,920 Speaker 1: joined us here. You think he's got to take on Peeps? 2695 01:57:47,920 --> 01:57:51,240 Speaker 1: Oh yes, okay, so James, before we even get into 2696 01:57:51,240 --> 01:57:53,240 Speaker 1: any of the nitty gritty with the colts, are you 2697 01:57:53,320 --> 01:57:56,040 Speaker 1: a Peeps fan?

They're disgusting texture wise 2707 01:58:19,200 --> 01:58:22,520 Speaker 4: and just taste. No, thank you, your your lips and 2708 01:58:22,720 --> 01:58:24,160 Speaker 4: tongue with crazy colors. 2709 01:58:24,160 --> 01:58:25,600 Speaker 1: At the end, he said he was gonna go pick 2710 01:58:25,680 --> 01:58:29,960 Speaker 1: up some some what is it doctor, doctor?

And you know, in typical Chris Ballard fashion, 2733 01:59:22,760 --> 01:59:24,720 Speaker 5: which in fairness to him, ever, Regina was going to say, 2734 01:59:25,120 --> 01:59:27,120 Speaker 5: you know, we're improving, we like what we did. They're 2735 01:59:27,120 --> 01:59:28,480 Speaker 5: not going to come out and say, you know, well, 2736 01:59:28,480 --> 01:59:30,840 Speaker 5: we're actually not doing exactly what we wish we could. 2737 01:59:31,360 --> 01:59:34,400 Speaker 5: But yeah, it sounded like they were in on Trey Hendercent. 2738 01:59:34,560 --> 01:59:38,200 Speaker 5: He confirmed that, but at the same time, there hasn't been, 2739 01:59:38,240 --> 01:59:41,640 Speaker 5: in my opinion, an adequate replacement to that level of 2740 01:59:41,720 --> 01:59:45,040 Speaker 5: player or that caliber of player. Depth is great, but 2741 01:59:45,360 --> 01:59:48,320 Speaker 5: arden Key Michael clements two guys he praised and said, hey, 2742 01:59:48,320 --> 01:59:51,400 Speaker 5: we need their toughness, ingredients and energy. Those guys to 2743 01:59:51,520 --> 01:59:53,840 Speaker 5: me aren't going to be needle movers when it comes 2744 01:59:53,880 --> 01:59:56,560 Speaker 5: to getting to the quarterback, especially if you look at 2745 01:59:56,800 --> 01:59:59,640 Speaker 5: from a hole just how the NFL works, you might 2746 01:59:59,720 --> 02:00:01,920 Speaker 5: need dude. I know, he referenced, you know, when they 2747 02:00:01,920 --> 02:00:05,040 Speaker 5: said the single season stack record for the team a 2748 02:00:05,080 --> 02:00:07,280 Speaker 5: few years ago, that was kind of a committee. But 2749 02:00:07,400 --> 02:00:09,920 Speaker 5: at the same time that was also I believe one 2750 02:00:09,920 --> 02:00:11,360 Speaker 5: of their worst years when it comes to a point 2751 02:00:11,400 --> 02:00:14,040 Speaker 5: standpoint on defense giving up a lot of points. 2752 02:00:14,560 --> 02:00:16,480 Speaker 4: James and we were talking about it a little earlier 2753 02:00:16,840 --> 02:00:19,880 Speaker 4: with missing on Hendrickson in free agency and then not 2754 02:00:19,920 --> 02:00:22,600 Speaker 4: really having a backup plan. You're kind of putting a 2755 02:00:22,640 --> 02:00:25,320 Speaker 4: whole lot of pressure on lots to kind of carry 2756 02:00:25,360 --> 02:00:28,880 Speaker 4: the load here as DeForest Buckner's coming off major next 2757 02:00:28,920 --> 02:00:32,120 Speaker 4: surgery and all that. Are you confident, I mean, if 2758 02:00:32,160 --> 02:00:34,880 Speaker 4: you're Chris Ballard, obviously he is confidence that Lots two 2759 02:00:34,920 --> 02:00:36,840 Speaker 4: can take up this load. Are you confident that Lots 2760 02:00:36,840 --> 02:00:38,600 Speaker 4: two can can carry this much? 2761 02:00:40,520 --> 02:00:42,920 Speaker 5: I'm not as confident, But also I feel like I'm 2762 02:00:42,920 --> 02:00:45,520 Speaker 5: a pessimist, so maybe I need to be a little 2763 02:00:45,560 --> 02:00:47,880 Speaker 5: more optimistic. But he did say, hey, you know, last 2764 02:00:47,920 --> 02:00:50,080 Speaker 5: two lots who is trending in the right direction. He 2765 02:00:50,160 --> 02:00:52,240 Speaker 5: had eight and a half stacks last year, he was 2766 02:00:52,280 --> 02:00:54,240 Speaker 5: closed on a few more. We believe he can be 2767 02:00:54,400 --> 02:00:57,280 Speaker 5: a double digit sacked guy. But my thing is, even 2768 02:00:57,320 --> 02:01:00,920 Speaker 5: if he is, what about the other side of the 2769 02:01:01,000 --> 02:01:03,879 Speaker 5: pass rush, what about the other side of the defensive line? 2770 02:01:04,040 --> 02:01:06,280 Speaker 5: How was that going to help things for laout two? 2771 02:01:06,360 --> 02:01:08,720 Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, even if he comes a better player 2772 02:01:09,200 --> 02:01:11,040 Speaker 5: that's still one player you have to account for on 2773 02:01:11,080 --> 02:01:14,280 Speaker 5: the edge as a game wrecker versus some other guys who, again, 2774 02:01:14,320 --> 02:01:16,440 Speaker 5: they're fine players as death pieces, but they're just not 2775 02:01:16,840 --> 02:01:20,160 Speaker 5: game changers. So we'll see if the draft, perhaps, you know, 2776 02:01:20,200 --> 02:01:23,880 Speaker 5: offers some solutions. He also mentioned JT. Tuoy Molowau as 2777 02:01:23,880 --> 02:01:26,320 Speaker 5: a piece that they're looking to build on and said that, hey, 2778 02:01:26,400 --> 02:01:28,600 Speaker 5: he could be a really good player for us. But again, 2779 02:01:28,640 --> 02:01:30,960 Speaker 5: that's a guy who was a healthy scratch a few 2780 02:01:30,960 --> 02:01:33,000 Speaker 5: times last year and only played I think twenty four 2781 02:01:32,960 --> 02:01:35,440 Speaker 5: percent of the team's defensive snaps when he did play 2782 02:01:35,440 --> 02:01:35,920 Speaker 5: in games. 2783 02:01:37,240 --> 02:01:39,800 Speaker 4: James Boyd joining us on the Payloffs LCAs hotline out 2784 02:01:39,800 --> 02:01:44,120 Speaker 4: in glorious Arizona, probably sipping a nice, you know, nice 2785 02:01:44,120 --> 02:01:46,040 Speaker 4: little morning tea or something like that. 2786 02:01:46,400 --> 02:01:48,840 Speaker 2: By the way, what is the pulp in the orange shoes? 2787 02:01:49,040 --> 02:01:49,240 Speaker 5: Yeah? 2788 02:01:49,280 --> 02:01:49,640 Speaker 2: You know it? 2789 02:01:50,080 --> 02:01:53,800 Speaker 1: Real quick? Side sidebar here? What were these breakfasts with 2790 02:01:53,840 --> 02:01:55,720 Speaker 1: the coaches and stuff like? Are these like the Masters 2791 02:01:55,760 --> 02:01:58,320 Speaker 1: dinners where they're like a specific thing or is it 2792 02:01:58,400 --> 02:02:01,200 Speaker 1: like biscuits and gravy and like bacon and all that. 2793 02:02:01,240 --> 02:02:01,800 Speaker 3: I'll la carte. 2794 02:02:02,000 --> 02:02:03,760 Speaker 1: What are we looking at here on the breakfast spread? 2795 02:02:04,760 --> 02:02:04,920 Speaker 3: Yeah? 2796 02:02:04,960 --> 02:02:07,760 Speaker 5: I would say for the media and our breakfast that 2797 02:02:07,800 --> 02:02:09,360 Speaker 5: we get is not the same as the one that 2798 02:02:09,440 --> 02:02:12,680 Speaker 5: carly erse Gordon is probably eating this morning. But you 2799 02:02:12,720 --> 02:02:14,840 Speaker 5: know it's typical, hey ma, if you don't it's a 2800 02:02:14,840 --> 02:02:18,840 Speaker 5: few muffins and some bacon, hopefully no lips bacon. Kevin. 2801 02:02:19,200 --> 02:02:24,720 Speaker 5: But last night was the annual media party slash you know, 2802 02:02:24,880 --> 02:02:27,240 Speaker 5: everybody comings party, so you had all the coaches, their gems, 2803 02:02:27,280 --> 02:02:30,360 Speaker 5: their families, a couple of players. Odell Beckham Junior was 2804 02:02:30,400 --> 02:02:33,720 Speaker 5: out there yesterday and the food at that was immaculate. 2805 02:02:33,760 --> 02:02:35,560 Speaker 5: I definitely ate a lot more. I probably should have, 2806 02:02:35,680 --> 02:02:37,720 Speaker 5: but again, I'll think it to myself. I will not 2807 02:02:37,760 --> 02:02:39,880 Speaker 5: be paying for anything like this in the near future, 2808 02:02:39,920 --> 02:02:41,120 Speaker 5: so get it. Why it's free? 2809 02:02:41,280 --> 02:02:44,080 Speaker 3: Yes, this way from mister Boyd. 2810 02:02:44,240 --> 02:02:47,960 Speaker 1: What was this the anniversary of you almost tripping Serena Williams. 2811 02:02:48,600 --> 02:02:50,480 Speaker 5: Yes, yes, I definitely had the head on the twiol 2812 02:02:50,520 --> 02:02:52,440 Speaker 5: this year, Kevin. And I'll stick to myself all right. 2813 02:02:52,440 --> 02:02:54,840 Speaker 5: If anybody has their back turn, you know, just make 2814 02:02:54,880 --> 02:02:57,280 Speaker 5: sure you look a little bit to make sure they're 2815 02:02:57,360 --> 02:03:00,120 Speaker 5: not exactly the goat before you act the to move. 2816 02:03:00,200 --> 02:03:02,840 Speaker 4: Your way all right sidebar over back to this Chris 2817 02:03:02,880 --> 02:03:06,160 Speaker 4: Ballard discussion, he talked about Anthony Richardson kind of left 2818 02:03:06,200 --> 02:03:08,600 Speaker 4: the door open as far as him being on the 2819 02:03:08,720 --> 02:03:12,360 Speaker 4: roster in twenty twenty six. It seems like the trademarket 2820 02:03:12,480 --> 02:03:15,960 Speaker 4: there isn't one at the moments. So I mean, are 2821 02:03:16,000 --> 02:03:18,280 Speaker 4: you more leaning towards that he is going to be 2822 02:03:18,320 --> 02:03:20,200 Speaker 4: on the Colts roster when they get to training camp. 2823 02:03:21,600 --> 02:03:24,480 Speaker 5: I don't think I'm still there yet, honestly, because the 2824 02:03:24,640 --> 02:03:28,960 Speaker 5: way Chris Ballace spoke about the quarterback position was a 2825 02:03:29,040 --> 02:03:33,160 Speaker 5: little to me contradictory because in one vein He's like, Hey, 2826 02:03:33,480 --> 02:03:36,000 Speaker 5: we like Riley Leonard, but we could also add another quarterback. 2827 02:03:36,040 --> 02:03:37,920 Speaker 5: And I'm thinking to myself, if you ask somebody, what 2828 02:03:37,920 --> 02:03:39,800 Speaker 5: does that mean for Anthony Richardson, Oh well, he could 2829 02:03:39,800 --> 02:03:41,840 Speaker 5: still be here. We believe in him and things like that. 2830 02:03:41,960 --> 02:03:44,440 Speaker 5: But I think they have to make a decision just 2831 02:03:44,560 --> 02:03:46,720 Speaker 5: point blank, is he going to be on our team 2832 02:03:46,800 --> 02:03:49,160 Speaker 5: or not? Regardless if we can trade him, and I 2833 02:03:49,160 --> 02:03:50,960 Speaker 5: think that there's the possibility that they can move on 2834 02:03:51,000 --> 02:03:53,360 Speaker 5: from him and possibly cut him outright. I'm not saying 2835 02:03:53,360 --> 02:03:54,640 Speaker 5: they will do that, but I think they have to 2836 02:03:54,720 --> 02:03:59,320 Speaker 5: consider it because to me, the big optics or the 2837 02:03:59,640 --> 02:04:03,000 Speaker 5: perhaps distraction of Anthony competing with Riley Leonard to be 2838 02:04:03,040 --> 02:04:05,760 Speaker 5: your QB two doesn't exactly wind up with everything they 2839 02:04:05,800 --> 02:04:07,480 Speaker 5: said this offseason. I mean, if you talk to them, 2840 02:04:07,600 --> 02:04:10,480 Speaker 5: they said, hey, right now today, Riley's our QB two. 2841 02:04:10,520 --> 02:04:12,640 Speaker 5: Granted we haven't really had an upbeate on Anthony in 2842 02:04:12,680 --> 02:04:15,240 Speaker 5: his eye and where he's that, but just talking to 2843 02:04:15,280 --> 02:04:17,240 Speaker 5: them and reading the tea leaves, they talk about Riley 2844 02:04:17,280 --> 02:04:19,440 Speaker 5: like he's a big part of their future. With Anthony. 2845 02:04:19,440 --> 02:04:21,640 Speaker 5: It's like, oh, yeah, this guy some of our team like, 2846 02:04:21,960 --> 02:04:24,120 Speaker 5: listen the best, But it doesn't sound like, at least 2847 02:04:24,120 --> 02:04:26,040 Speaker 5: in my mind, he's a big part of their plans 2848 02:04:26,080 --> 02:04:28,120 Speaker 5: moving forward. So do you want to deal with that 2849 02:04:28,160 --> 02:04:29,000 Speaker 5: going to another season? 2850 02:04:29,080 --> 02:04:29,240 Speaker 7: Is it? 2851 02:04:29,240 --> 02:04:32,760 Speaker 5: Why keep him around? Possibly, if Daniel Jones isn't ready, 2852 02:04:32,760 --> 02:04:36,440 Speaker 5: I think that's probably a good thing to do. But optically, 2853 02:04:36,600 --> 02:04:38,680 Speaker 5: I just wonder how many times you can really, you know, 2854 02:04:38,680 --> 02:04:40,840 Speaker 5: got out of roll with Anthony and say you believe 2855 02:04:40,880 --> 02:04:43,720 Speaker 5: in him and then not really get you know, anything materialized. 2856 02:04:44,160 --> 02:04:46,000 Speaker 1: And that's the voice James Boyd. Of course you hear 2857 02:04:46,040 --> 02:04:48,320 Speaker 1: him on these ARA waves and he's out in Phoenix 2858 02:04:48,440 --> 02:04:51,320 Speaker 1: right now. A little breakfast with Shane Steichen upcoming the 2859 02:04:51,400 --> 02:04:55,360 Speaker 1: league's annual meetings. James, you tweeted out and obviously he's 2860 02:04:55,400 --> 02:04:57,120 Speaker 1: got stories up on the athletic but you tweeted out 2861 02:04:57,160 --> 02:05:00,400 Speaker 1: yesterday got of some takeaways from Chris On and you 2862 02:05:00,480 --> 02:05:03,520 Speaker 1: mentioned one of those being Chris Power believes Daniel Jones 2863 02:05:03,520 --> 02:05:06,320 Speaker 1: can be even better in twenty twenty six another year 2864 02:05:06,320 --> 02:05:10,280 Speaker 1: in Shane Stiken's system. Is that purely from like the 2865 02:05:10,360 --> 02:05:12,760 Speaker 1: mental acumen of just like being in an offense for 2866 02:05:12,800 --> 02:05:15,400 Speaker 1: an additional year, because you know he is losing one 2867 02:05:15,400 --> 02:05:17,160 Speaker 1: of his top white outs and he is coming off 2868 02:05:17,160 --> 02:05:20,160 Speaker 1: with torn achilles. I'm just curious if he added any 2869 02:05:20,240 --> 02:05:21,200 Speaker 1: kind of color around that. 2870 02:05:22,560 --> 02:05:25,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, And I think that's the biggest takeaway over the 2871 02:05:25,600 --> 02:05:28,880 Speaker 5: last couple of days in regards to Daniel is carli 2872 02:05:29,000 --> 02:05:32,000 Speaker 5: Ersa Gordon Chris Ballard truly believed that, yes, he's coming 2873 02:05:32,000 --> 02:05:34,960 Speaker 5: off the achilles, coming off the injury, but his chemistry 2874 02:05:34,960 --> 02:05:37,560 Speaker 5: was say, spiking will do a lot of wonders to 2875 02:05:37,600 --> 02:05:39,360 Speaker 5: help him get up to speed a lot quicker from 2876 02:05:39,400 --> 02:05:41,800 Speaker 5: a mental standpoint, because he already knows the offense and 2877 02:05:41,800 --> 02:05:43,400 Speaker 5: he knows what he wants to do in it, and 2878 02:05:43,480 --> 02:05:47,320 Speaker 5: so in theory in a vacuum, yeah, you could say, Okay, 2879 02:05:47,640 --> 02:05:50,160 Speaker 5: in another year in the system, Daniel Jones, as smart 2880 02:05:50,160 --> 02:05:52,400 Speaker 5: as he is, hardest he works, will be better. But 2881 02:05:52,520 --> 02:05:55,880 Speaker 5: the pushback that I've had for both Carli Ersa Gordon 2882 02:05:55,920 --> 02:05:59,480 Speaker 5: and Chris Ballard is that this guy is always hurt 2883 02:06:00,400 --> 02:06:02,840 Speaker 5: and he's coming off a devastating injury. And I wrote 2884 02:06:02,880 --> 02:06:06,040 Speaker 5: it in my story this morning. At the athletics, they 2885 02:06:06,080 --> 02:06:09,840 Speaker 5: treat this injury as if it's the house fly in 2886 02:06:09,880 --> 02:06:11,880 Speaker 5: the room versus the elephant in the room. And I'm 2887 02:06:11,880 --> 02:06:14,680 Speaker 5: thinking to myself, as optimistic as you all or have been, 2888 02:06:15,160 --> 02:06:17,280 Speaker 5: this makes no sense to me. This is a devastating 2889 02:06:17,320 --> 02:06:19,800 Speaker 5: injury and everyone keeps acting like it's nothing. It is 2890 02:06:19,840 --> 02:06:22,080 Speaker 5: definitely something, and I think that's something they have to, 2891 02:06:22,320 --> 02:06:25,600 Speaker 5: you know, consider moving forward. And so we'll see how 2892 02:06:25,600 --> 02:06:27,880 Speaker 5: the rehab goes and if he's available at the start 2893 02:06:27,880 --> 02:06:31,640 Speaker 5: of the season. But this is very, very optimistic, and honestly, 2894 02:06:32,080 --> 02:06:36,160 Speaker 5: it might be like just malpractice. If you look at 2895 02:06:36,240 --> 02:06:36,960 Speaker 5: how things are going. 2896 02:06:37,160 --> 02:06:38,800 Speaker 4: It does seem like this season is turning into a 2897 02:06:38,800 --> 02:06:41,000 Speaker 4: bunch of hopes and wishes as far as what the 2898 02:06:41,080 --> 02:06:41,720 Speaker 4: roster could be. 2899 02:06:41,760 --> 02:06:43,400 Speaker 2: We hope Daniel Jones will be back. 2900 02:06:43,440 --> 02:06:45,640 Speaker 1: We hope he'll be like he was when we started 2901 02:06:45,640 --> 02:06:48,240 Speaker 1: the season, and DeForest Buckner's fully help. It's a lot 2902 02:06:48,280 --> 02:06:50,240 Speaker 1: of hopes and witches for my liking right now. 2903 02:06:51,720 --> 02:06:54,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, and that's the thing, hope. It isn't really a plan, 2904 02:06:54,320 --> 02:06:56,280 Speaker 5: not get it. You still have, you know, the draft 2905 02:06:56,320 --> 02:06:58,000 Speaker 5: to get through, you have the latter hits of the 2906 02:06:58,040 --> 02:07:00,640 Speaker 5: free agency. And again I'll sit here and say this 2907 02:07:01,000 --> 02:07:03,000 Speaker 5: last year, I didn't believe anything that they were doing 2908 02:07:03,120 --> 02:07:05,200 Speaker 5: as far as the quarterback plan, and it worked out well. 2909 02:07:05,200 --> 02:07:07,200 Speaker 5: I had to eat crow for about ten weeks there 2910 02:07:07,240 --> 02:07:10,120 Speaker 5: before Daniel really got seriously injured. So perhaps it could 2911 02:07:10,200 --> 02:07:13,200 Speaker 5: work out.

Did you fully catch the ending 3098 02:14:49,400 --> 02:14:51,760 Speaker 1: of that game Friday night? I heard about it. I 3099 02:14:51,800 --> 02:14:54,840 Speaker 1: did not hear it or see it though. All right, Caleb, 3100 02:14:54,880 --> 02:14:56,720 Speaker 1: feel free to fill in any details that I'm that 3101 02:14:56,760 --> 02:14:59,120 Speaker 1: I'm missing here. But you know, I think it gets 3102 02:14:59,160 --> 02:15:01,720 Speaker 1: lost in like the NCA tournament just shuffle and I 3103 02:15:01,760 --> 02:15:03,520 Speaker 1: get it's spring break for a lot of people, or 3104 02:15:03,600 --> 02:15:06,200 Speaker 1: people just aren't paying attention frankly to the Pacers right now. 3105 02:15:06,200 --> 02:15:08,560 Speaker 1: But okay, Benedict Mathern's back in the building right He's 3106 02:15:08,560 --> 02:15:09,800 Speaker 1: making a bunch of free throws. 3107 02:15:10,000 --> 02:15:10,960 Speaker 2: The Pacers have a lead. 3108 02:15:11,000 --> 02:15:12,600 Speaker 1: All of a sudden, they're trying to ice the game, 3109 02:15:12,960 --> 02:15:15,520 Speaker 1: and Kawhi Leonard hits a shot that looks like it's 3110 02:15:15,560 --> 02:15:18,960 Speaker 1: the game winner. Typical Kawhi fifteen footer hits a game 3111 02:15:19,080 --> 02:15:21,600 Speaker 1: winning shot, at least we think it is. They end 3112 02:15:21,680 --> 02:15:24,640 Speaker 1: up having point four on the clock. Clippers are up one. 3113 02:15:24,880 --> 02:15:29,280 Speaker 1: Pacers advance the ball, Andrew Dumhart's inbounding it. He throws 3114 02:15:29,400 --> 02:15:33,560 Speaker 1: the ball in the hoop from out of bounds. Goes in, 3115 02:15:33,680 --> 02:15:36,680 Speaker 1: Oh my god, now you know showing Maddie this. Maddy 3116 02:15:36,880 --> 02:15:39,920 Speaker 1: leaps and thinks that you know it's you know it counts. 3117 02:15:39,960 --> 02:15:42,120 Speaker 1: I'm like, no, no, no, that's a violation. Okay, so now 3118 02:15:42,120 --> 02:15:45,880 Speaker 1: Clippers ball. They the Pacers foul Matherin. He goes the 3119 02:15:45,920 --> 02:15:48,160 Speaker 1: line to try to ice the game with like point 3120 02:15:48,160 --> 02:15:51,640 Speaker 1: three on the clock. He misses the first so smartly, 3121 02:15:52,080 --> 02:15:54,800 Speaker 1: Tyrone Lew says, miss the second. I mean there's point three. 3122 02:15:54,840 --> 02:15:56,920 Speaker 1: You just want the time to evaporate. You can't throw 3123 02:15:56,960 --> 02:15:59,720 Speaker 1: it link to the court and point three. Matherin misses it, 3124 02:15:59,800 --> 02:16:03,480 Speaker 1: but the Pacers get fouled with time still on the clock. 3125 02:16:03,680 --> 02:16:06,320 Speaker 1: I think O Siaka maybe got fouled. So now we're 3126 02:16:06,360 --> 02:16:09,600 Speaker 1: back to where we were a minute ago. Pacers and 3127 02:16:09,680 --> 02:16:13,080 Speaker 1: bounding the ball down one trying to get a tip. 3128 02:16:13,080 --> 02:16:16,480 Speaker 1: In situation, Jay Huff flops like you've never seen. I mean, 3129 02:16:16,520 --> 02:16:18,920 Speaker 1: it was one of the more beautiful flops you've ever seen. 3130 02:16:19,440 --> 02:16:22,000 Speaker 3: He gets fouled down. 3131 02:16:21,800 --> 02:16:24,600 Speaker 1: One with zero point one on the clock, so he 3132 02:16:24,680 --> 02:16:27,200 Speaker 1: goes to the foul line with a chance to either 3133 02:16:27,320 --> 02:16:30,480 Speaker 1: win it or send the game in overtime. I did 3134 02:16:30,480 --> 02:16:32,160 Speaker 1: not know this, but somebody told me Jay Huff is 3135 02:16:32,160 --> 02:16:33,320 Speaker 1: an eighty percent foul shooter. 3136 02:16:34,000 --> 02:16:35,480 Speaker 2: Boy, he looked like an eight. 3137 02:16:35,360 --> 02:16:37,560 Speaker 1: Percent foul shooter, was gonna say, with the game on 3138 02:16:37,600 --> 02:16:39,720 Speaker 1: the line. I did see he clanged both. I did 3139 02:16:39,760 --> 02:16:44,160 Speaker 1: see he clank both of the brick brick. Yeah, that 3140 02:16:44,240 --> 02:16:46,920 Speaker 1: is an unbu like imagine if you just the wild 3141 02:16:47,080 --> 02:16:49,560 Speaker 1: swings of emotion, if you had any at that point, 3142 02:16:49,879 --> 02:16:53,080 Speaker 1: It's insane. I mean, can you imagine if like that 3143 02:16:53,120 --> 02:16:57,560 Speaker 1: game like really really mattered. Well, I guess for the Pacers, hopefully, 3144 02:16:57,600 --> 02:17:00,560 Speaker 1: you know, in the losing effort of he just you know, 3145 02:17:00,600 --> 02:17:03,280 Speaker 1: helps your chances as far as getting that overall number 3146 02:17:03,320 --> 02:17:06,879 Speaker 1: one pick, we will we will remember that when the 3147 02:17:06,920 --> 02:17:09,600 Speaker 1: Pacers have some of the best odds, and we'll remember 3148 02:17:09,640 --> 02:17:14,560 Speaker 1: those Jay Huff missed free throw.
