1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,880
Speaker 1: You know, for some of us, the weekend just means

2
00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:06,480
Speaker 1: we work a little bit more. You know, weekend is

3
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: usually good for the Rakestraw family. Dada is out getting paid.

4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,800
Speaker 1: I do have a Sunday off. I had planned to

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,000
Speaker 1: use the first syllable of my last name. It was

6
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 1: leaf removal weekend of the Rakestraw household. I think my

7
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:24,640
Speaker 1: wife has add which for me is a good thing

8
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 1: because I'm driving back last night. I was Greg Rakestraw

9
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 1: by the way, filling in for j Query here on

10
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: ninety three five, one oh seven five the fan and

11
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 1: like leaves are in piles in my front yard. I'm like, sweete,

12
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: that was what Sunday was for. So I'm hoping she

13
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 1: gets really annoyed with the piles that she sees this

14
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: afternoon and they are all gone, and then legitimately I

15
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: get a Sunday off. I love my job, believe it

16
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: or not. I actually do desire to have a social

17
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 1: life and do things that the normal folks do when

18
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: they're not working on Friday evening and Saturday afternoon. I

19
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 1: don't have a gig tomorrow after four o'clock. You know,

20
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 1: I figure calling one hundred and thirty first mon Bell

21
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: Classic is good enough. No Saturday night gig for me almost.

22
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: I have like a forty eight hour like like window,

23
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 1: you know, like I have shore leave or something. I'm

24
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:20,119
Speaker 1: in the military coming up this weekend. I will figure

25
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 1: out something to do. But much as we talked about

26
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 1: yesterday on the program, do not mistake the Colts not

27
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: playing on Sunday for a lack of activity. There are

28
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,120
Speaker 1: a lot of other things that we can talk about.

29
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 1: By the way, I think I look the best I

30
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 1: have looked on the studio live cam because as I

31
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:45,119
Speaker 1: look over the shoulder of Nathaniel Finch, things have gone dark.

32
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: I'm much better looking in the dark. So I think

33
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: for those of you that are watching, you're now listening

34
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: on YouTube, but you're not seeing me on YouTube, and

35
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 1: that's probably better for everybody involved. I didn't shape It's back.

36
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I was like, that wasn't a radio teas.

37
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: That was just to teach you have to look at me. Great,

38
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: Oh now you're gonna look at me again. Sorry about this.

39
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:09,800
Speaker 1: This is what happens when talent can see those things.

40
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,799
Speaker 1: It is still an all you indie. Addition of the show,

41
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 1: Eddie Garrison is taking the day off, just like the

42
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 1: Pacers took the entire Western Conference road trip off. And

43
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,639
Speaker 1: again I'm not I am probably less critical than other

44
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: voices I have heard on the station, but man, that

45
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 1: is a brutal watch right now. And last night just

46
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 1: continued to be further indicative of how the season has

47
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,679
Speaker 1: gone for the Pacers. Aaron Nee Smith gets hurt in

48
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: the third quarter, and by that point I went to

49
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: bed when that happened. I'm like, Okay, I've seen enough.

50
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: For tonight things just got worse. I think the final

51
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: score was one thirty three ninety eight at the end

52
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: of that one last night, and I saw where Christiny

53
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: was calling the game via cell phone by the time

54
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 1: we got to the fourth quarter, so apparently they either

55
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:03,959
Speaker 1: lost power down by where the announcers are in Phoenix.

56
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,359
Speaker 1: Nathaniel Leyer are radio guys by trade, even though I'm

57
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: more in the streaming business myself these days, every play

58
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 1: by play guy has at some point in time in

59
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 1: their life. And Nathaniel knows exactly where I'm going and

60
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 1: starts nodding his head. We've all called the game off

61
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: of a cell phone. Again, for those of you who

62
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: are watching on the stream, we have all done one

63
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: of these at some point in time because equipment has failed,

64
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: we call the studio and say, hey, pot up the

65
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 1: phone line. I'm going to start talking. And so apparently

66
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: that also works from a television standpoint as well. Yikes,

67
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 1: I don't have any Pacers guests lined up because frankly,

68
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: I don't think we need to rehash what's going on

69
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: and with the amount of injuries they have had and

70
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: it just starts to pile up and cascade. And whomever

71
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 1: coined this phrase, whether it was Dustin In writing the

72
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: story or whomever did the social media for The Indianapolis

73
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 1: Star in their story from last night, they used a

74
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: phrase that wasn't a thing when I was in college.

75
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: It probably was when Nathaniel was because you know he

76
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: went to coleadge in this millennium and I didn't. But

77
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: that would be gap year. That is what this like.

78
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: The Pacers should be going on walking. They should be

79
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: I'll make it a more millennial reference. They should be

80
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: backpacking through western Europe right now. They should follow the

81
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: lead of Ken Adams and talk about the time they

82
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 1: were hiking around Mount Tibbodabo, because that would be more

83
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 1: fun and that would be far more productive than what

84
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: the Indiana Pacers are going on a basketball floor right now.

85
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:33,960
Speaker 1: They want to say, of their four games of the

86
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: Western Conference trip, the closest they got to beating anybody

87
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,719
Speaker 1: was a seventeen point loss to the Nuggets. And again,

88
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 1: I understand the reasons behind it, and it is the

89
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 1: ultimate of legitimate excuses. It is just and it's nobody's

90
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 1: fault you have that litany of injuries. I'm not sure

91
00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:02,840
Speaker 1: there's anything you can do on this subject, but it

92
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: is a difficult watch when you saw how wonderful it

93
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,479
Speaker 1: was to watch the product for a good chunk of

94
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: last year, but especially in April, May and June, when

95
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 1: the Indiana Pacers were a joy to watch. They weren't

96
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 1: winning ugly, they were winning beautifully. I mean, this was

97
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 1: how the game was played, all the pieces clicking together,

98
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 1: the way they shared the ball and moved the ball in.

99
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: Different guys would show up on different nights, and now

100
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: it's dudes, and I didn't know they're on the team.

101
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 1: Like the only other time that I can think of

102
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: where a Pacers roster kind of looked like us. Maybe

103
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 1: you could see the end of that year four years ago,

104
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,479
Speaker 1: five years ago they won twenty five games. But in

105
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 1: terms of kind of like my prism or my experience

106
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 1: of watching the team, it reminds you like in the

107
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: immediacy after the brawl, when there were guys that were

108
00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 1: signed on Monday and played thirty six minutes on Tuesday. Now,

109
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 1: maybe you didn't have as much of that last night,

110
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 1: but you know, Monte Morris is on the team, and

111
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: Jeremiah Rominson Earl is on the team, and one of

112
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: the Martin kids is on the team, and of course

113
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 1: he signs and then gets sick and doesn't play in

114
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 1: the last game. Because that's kind of the way this

115
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 1: season has gone. But gap year may be the way

116
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 1: to describe it. And I'm not trying to panic in

117
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 1: the moment, because I was very much against those that were, hey,

118
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: you should go ahead and trade Pascal Siakam. Now no, no, no,

119
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 1: You've got good pieces here, don't blow it up. Hold

120
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,720
Speaker 1: the ford until Tyreese gets back in twenty six, twenty seven,

121
00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: And now we're what twelve games in because the Pacers

122
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: are one eleven or one and twelve at this point

123
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 1: Nathaniel eleven, So they say you've played twelve games. There

124
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 1: are seventy games left to go in the season, and

125
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,279
Speaker 1: you're just like, I have to watch this seventy more times.

126
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: And again I almost feel like I have to apologize

127
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 1: to my friends the Pacers for saying that, because they

128
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: did everything right to get that team to the point

129
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: where it was last year, where you're one game, you're

130
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: one injury away from planning a world championship, and now

131
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 1: is the best way to describe that. It's painful to

132
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: watch that last night. Thankfully, I was able to watch

133
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: Purdue Alabama before that, and that was the opposite. Now,

134
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 1: I didn't get to watch the entire thing, but I

135
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 1: watched a good chunk of the second half. And if

136
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: Purdue had lost that game, I probably would have sold you.

137
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: You know what, it's not that important in part because

138
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: a they're so experienced and B that season is so

139
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: long that how you're playing on November the fourteenth doesn't

140
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: I still translate how you're playing on January the fourteenth,

141
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,160
Speaker 1: and doesn't translate how you're playing in March fourteenth, But

142
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: most importantly for this group, how you're playing on Easter weekend,

143
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 1: because that's what it's about. After Purdue finally made that

144
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: final four two years ago. Now it has become okay,

145
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 1: great now go in to national championship, and when you

146
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 1: have guys that have been there forever as Trey Kaufman,

147
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 1: renn As, Braden Smith, as Fletcher Lawyer, it's almost champions

148
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 1: for bus And I hate feeling that way, but that's

149
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 1: kind of what it is for Purdue, which is why

150
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 1: if they had lost that game, I said, well, all right,

151
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 1: maybe there's some things that are concerning, but the fact

152
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 1: in the fashion in which they won that game, after

153
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 1: seeing a seven point lead e appor eight, scoring the

154
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 1: last seven points of the game, find a way to

155
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,440
Speaker 1: get it done, and to do so in something you

156
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 1: see unseemingly a fewer and fewer basis, And that is

157
00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 1: a true road environment, you know. For as great as

158
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 1: the Indiana win was, a marquette, wasn't a true old environment.

159
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 1: This was not a game in an NBA arena. This

160
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: was not a made for television thing. This was we're

161
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 1: going to play each other and a home at home

162
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: because we know you're good and we know we're good,

163
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: and we want to have this showcase game to get

164
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: us ready for a national championship game, for a final four,

165
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: for an Elite eight to Sweet sixteen. That's what sort

166
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 1: of game that was, except it wasn't a neutral environment

167
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: like an NCAA tournament game would be. That was like

168
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 1: a conference. It was like a Big ten game that

169
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 1: Purdue played for their third game of the season and

170
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 1: went out and won. And Braiden Smith every time he

171
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 1: takes the ball inside, You're like, and again, I covered

172
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 1: Braiden as a high school junior and senior so and that,

173
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 1: which is now four years ago, but still I saw

174
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: more of him than most did before he got to Purdue.

175
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 1: And you just go, how is that that dude gonna

176
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 1: finish this? I mean, you see him driving in and

177
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 1: you're like, that guy's a foot bigger than he is.

178
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: How is he Where does he find the passing angle?

179
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:12,079
Speaker 1: How is he gonna make that play happen? Well, from

180
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: a jump shot standpoint, he didn't. He was seven of nineteen,

181
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 1: but he was five to ten from three, was ten

182
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: of twelve in the free throw line. He had twenty

183
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 1: nine points. Maybe the most jaw dropping stat of the

184
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 1: game is the fact that Braden Smith had seven rebounds

185
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: in last night's game. I mean, it can be a

186
00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 1: big three. It was really kind of a big two

187
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 1: last night with key contributions from others, like the two

188
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: things that stuck with me about Purdue's win last night

189
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 1: was again the way they closed the game, because it

190
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: was about to go in the opposite direction when eighty

191
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: to seventy three became eighty to eighty late in that contest,

192
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 1: and we had the long replay review for a potential

193
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: shot clock Violey which was which was the correct call?

194
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: He missed it by like a tenth of a second.

195
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 1: By the way, I realized, the money in Alabama goes

196
00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 1: to the football team, but hey, if you could go

197
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 1: ahead and invest in the backboards that have the lights

198
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 1: on him and not just the shot clock behind it,

199
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 1: that'd be kind of great. We can get to play

200
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 1: in a little bit quicker if you spend this little

201
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: bit of money on the basketball facility and not everything

202
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 1: on the football team. Thank you very much. But Smith

203
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: was great, Kaufman Ren was great, Kluff did what you

204
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 1: needed him to do. I thought Jacobson and Limited minutes

205
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: had some big buckets late. But one of the things

206
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 1: that you would hear about, and maybe if not on

207
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,120
Speaker 1: the radio, maybe this was in my mind because when

208
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: I left here yesterday. I am fortunate enough to be

209
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 1: on the board of the Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame,

210
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:49,839
Speaker 1: and so when I left here yesterday drove straight to Newcastle.

211
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: I got to hang out in the museum, the boardroom,

212
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,559
Speaker 1: et cetera for like three hours. Not a bad gig

213
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 1: that I get to have. I shouldn't complain about working

214
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 1: like Friday, Saturdays and Sundays when that's part of the

215
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: gig that I do. But when I'm there, you know

216
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 1: what I tried to do. It's not say much. You

217
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 1: know why. The old basketball coaches will say a lot,

218
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 1: and I can listen and learn some things from them.

219
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: Like one of the things that strikes me when I'm

220
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 1: on a board meeting, I'm pretty sure I'm the worst

221
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: basketball playing this group of fifty or sixty people around me,

222
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: because a lot of them were coaches, they were pretty

223
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,680
Speaker 1: good players at one point in time as well. So

224
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: I'm kind of listening. And one of the things that

225
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 1: I hear the guys talk about that I was hanging

226
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 1: out with yesterday was just how big and how physical

227
00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:33,079
Speaker 1: this Alabama team was talking about, like the Alabama Saint

228
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 1: John's game over the course of the weekend, how physical

229
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:42,079
Speaker 1: that game was you know what Purdue did last night?

230
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: I mean, you probably know the final score by now

231
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 1: eighty seven eighty. But of all of these superlatives that

232
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 1: I could give you about Purdue's win last night, And

233
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,320
Speaker 1: by the way, Bobby Buckets, Bobbyridelle Perdue Radio Network will

234
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 1: join us at one o'clock's talk about the win. Purdue

235
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:00,840
Speaker 1: went on the road to one of the top ten

236
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 1: teams in the country, a hostile environment for sure, and

237
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 1: they outrebounded them fifty two to twenty eight. I pause

238
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 1: for dramatic effect to let that sink in. Like I

239
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 1: was talking about the IU Indie story yesterday and I said, hey,

240
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 1: they shot forty five threes in a forty minute game.

241
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 1: Again in the Handle's eyes just popped open as soon

242
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:28,120
Speaker 1: as I said that they outscored a team fifty one

243
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,479
Speaker 1: to ten on points off turnovers fots three six turnovers.

244
00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 1: Certain numbers that pop off the page at you. When

245
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 1: I'm usually doing a show like this, I try not

246
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: to be that guy that reads you the box score,

247
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 1: because you're capable of doing that. But I have it

248
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 1: in front of me just so I can emphasize the

249
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 1: numbers that catch your attention perdue outrebounded the eighth ranked

250
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 1: team in the country, one that is thought to be

251
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: one of the best teams in the SEC. I'm not

252
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 1: sure how much of a qualifier you need more than

253
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 1: they're the eighth ranked team in the country, but there

254
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 1: you go, and they outrebounded them by twenty four. They

255
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: had two guys that had double digit rebounds. Again, Trey

256
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 1: Kauffman ran nineteen and fifteen. Oscar Cluff didn't have a

257
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 1: double double in terms of points, only scored nine payd

258
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 1: eleven boards. He did his job. The former South Dakota

259
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: State Jack Rabbit and Braiden Smith had seven. Braiden Smith

260
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 1: go ahead and say it, like Charles Dutton's character in

261
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: Rudy five, one hundred pound nothing had more had three

262
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 1: more rebounds than any player for Alabama had in last

263
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 1: night's game.

264
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 2: You hear what Natos said.

265
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 1: I didn't hear it, but I have heard the inference,

266
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 1: so please feel free to share it with me. There

267
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 1: you go, Maybe why I channel that reference. So I'm

268
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 1: not sure how much stock to put in November college basketball,

269
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 1: and again not because that wasn't a quality team and

270
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,120
Speaker 1: a great win. And believe me and I heard I

271
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 1: think it was Jimmy Dike's with Tom Harten on the

272
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:02,840
Speaker 1: broadcast last night on a ESPN two, the word resume

273
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 1: win was used, and that is absolutely nine thousand percent accurate.

274
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: That was a resume win for Purdue. So like when

275
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 1: you're watching the boiler Makers play in late January and

276
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 1: February and the graphic pops up, Here's what their strength

277
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 1: of schedule is, here's whatever net rankings, here's the metrics

278
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 1: that the tournament team the committee is using, you know

279
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: these days, and it says key wins. One of the

280
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 1: first ones you will see is Alabama. All Right. I

281
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 1: still teams are so different between now and the end

282
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 1: of the season. I'm not trying to get too giddy

283
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 1: or hyped up about this. For Purdue, everything is about

284
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 1: positioning to be as good of a seed as you

285
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: can be to give you the most advantageous route to

286
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 1: get back to here, To get to Lucas Oil Stadium

287
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: and play a Final four in your backyard. Last night

288
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:03,720
Speaker 1: was a great step, first step really in that positioning

289
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 1: to come back home. That's what everything is about for

290
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 1: this Purdue basketball team this year. So we'll talk to

291
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 1: Bobby Buckets about that. Coming up at one o'clock, we

292
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 1: will talk more college basketball on the show because in

293
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 1: the building we have both the Indiana Hoosiers and we

294
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 1: have the Butler Bulldogs. They're on Fuego tomorrow now it

295
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 1: is still at ninety two to seven FM. For those

296
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 1: of you that are not in the know, it is

297
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 1: still weird for me to think that Butler is going

298
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 1: to play an ACC team tomorrow when they are playing

299
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 1: at SMU Southern Methodist. The opposition for the Bulldogs tomorrow,

300
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 1: Mark Minner will have the call. We'll talk to Mark

301
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 1: coming up. In fact, in the next segment of the show.

302
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 1: Tonight is high school football Friday Night. For me, I

303
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 1: have three more of those before it's the full transition

304
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 1: to the basketball season. Basketball is starting to creep more

305
00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 1: into my life from a play by play standpoint. I've

306
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 1: got three more Friday nights than the gridiron, and two

307
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 1: more of those of the outdoor variety. My game this

308
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 1: evening on my NDTV twenty three and stream free on

309
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: IHSAATV dot Org is Sena Grove and Warren Central. Seven

Speaker 1: and I are the same game. If I had to

314
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,879
Speaker 1: take a flyer on what game Kyle is going to

315
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:32,320
Speaker 1: be at, and maybe he's already announced this on social

316
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 1: media if he has, I missed it, sorry Kyle. My

317
00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,959
Speaker 1: guess would be he is going to Brownsburg Decatur Central

318
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 1: would be my guess. But I've been wrong before. I'm

319
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,439
Speaker 1: wrong all the time. Yet they still have me in

320
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 1: this chair from ton to times. So Kyle and I

321
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,480

332
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 1: can be on my show. That's kind of way it

333
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: works around here, right. We just talked to each other

334

Speaker 1: a lot. Kevin Bie on the program at two o'clock

335

Speaker 1: as we'll talk a variety of things with him and

336
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 1: we will kind of take a look around the National

337
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: Football League. I know we've got a couple of games

338
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:36,359
Speaker 1: for you. Chargers. The are the one o'clock game that

339
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 1: we have and I space on whom they are playing.

340
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,679
Speaker 1: Chiefs and Broncos are the four to thirty game that

341
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,159
Speaker 1: we have. So there will be an NFL football doubleheader.

342
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,679
Speaker 1: You can hear on the fan and listen as you're

343
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,520
Speaker 1: out doing yard work as I plan to be doing.

344
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 1: The honeydew list gets cleared on my Sunday off. Jake

345
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 1: has chimed in for a segment. Jake has is feel

346
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 1: Good Fridays that he does each and every week, and

347
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,639
Speaker 1: I know a little bit of the backstory of the

348
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 1: person that he is going to be talking to. Her

349
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: name is Addie Haberthy and she is a ron Kyllie Royal.

350
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 1: She has headed to play volleyball at Xavier and she

351
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 1: tore her acl in August right before the season started.

352
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 1: And Ron Colly, who was probably the best team overall

353
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 1: in the State last year, won three A won three

354
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 1: A again, probably weren't his dominant, but still three A

355
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,680
Speaker 1: state champs. A big part of that is that you

356
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 1: just had a Division one player, which Ron Colley has

357
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 1: multiple on that team, but he just lost one of

358
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 1: your best players right before the season started. Well, Addie

359
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,400
Speaker 1: was able to serve the final point of the season

360
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 1: at Gambridge last Saturday in their championship victory against Bishop Dwinger,

361
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 1: And there's great video of this. There was a very

362
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:02,439
Speaker 1: kind of ginger dogpile at the end of that point.

363
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 1: Basically like a teammate almost like dropped and rolled her

364
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 1: to like steer her into the dogpile to not do

365
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 1: any further damage to that knee of which he had

366
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: surgery three months ago. But she was on the court

367
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,160
Speaker 1: for one point the entire season, and she's gonna talk

368
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 1: to Jake about that coming up. So Jake does make

369
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,800
Speaker 1: an appearance in the program coming up a little bit

370
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: after that. Yesterday on the show, I hope you enjoyed it.

371
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,120
Speaker 1: We talked to both coaches of the Monon Bell Classic.

372
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 1: That's what I've been gearing up for all week long.

373
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 1: Monon Bell won thirty one Wabash versus De Pauw tomorrow

374
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 1: one o'clock on the IIC Sports Network. If you're going

375
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:43,399
Speaker 1: to be at the game, come up say hello. You know,

376
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 1: I'll let you a little bit behind the curtain here. Normally,

377
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,280
Speaker 1: what I'm doing like a high school football game, and

378
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,880
Speaker 1: they're about two hours out high school basketball, maybe hour

379
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 1: and a half hour, fifteen down. Knowing the flow of

380
00:20:56,920 --> 00:21:01,120
Speaker 1: humanity around the Wabash Collbage campus, the same thing holds true.

381
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 1: And the game is in Greencastle at Blackstock Stadium, Like

382
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 1: I need to get there a little bit sooner to

383
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 1: kind of work my way around people. So I'll be

384
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 1: in Crawfordsville from like ten am on tomorrow. So if

385
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 1: you're going to the game, I'll be in the press box.

386
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 1: I'll be kind of hanging around the truck, hanging around

387
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,800
Speaker 1: the stadium. Come find a way to come say hello.

388
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 1: We'll we'll talk it up. And my goodness, three years

389
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:25,920
Speaker 1: ago for this game, there was five inches of snow

390
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 1: on the ground. Like six days ago there was two

391
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 1: inches of snow on the ground. I'm wearing my standard

392
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 1: eye I see lightweight hoodie and a pair of a

393
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,200
Speaker 1: sweat and I feel like I'm overdressed right now, Finchy

394
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,199
Speaker 1: is over here to anybody because you're a little bit

395
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 1: young for American Pie. But my guess is there been

396
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,440
Speaker 1: just a few last name nickname references to you from

397
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 1: the great character in American Pie over the years. Correct.

398
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the guy walking just behind us right there.

399
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 3: BK calls me out all the time.

400
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:00,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, say away from the Vicus. Okay, So Fishy as

401
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: all going first room for this point in time. Forward

402
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,480
Speaker 1: tells me I had to do it about facing home

403
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 1: and put like shorts and sandals on today it is

404
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 1: it is that level of day and tomorrow the temperature

405
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 1: is going to be seventy. You know, I've tried to

406
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:13,679
Speaker 1: like dress for this game, like it's almost like a

407
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: fireside jet Like it's been like blazer sweater and shirt

408
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 1: and tie for this game. I think the sweater is

409
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 1: right out. I'm worried about, you know, the just the

410
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: jacket and shirt and tie being too much given the

411
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:31,439
Speaker 1: temperature tomorrow. A beautiful day, whether you're going to Crawfordsville

412
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:35,919
Speaker 1: for the Bell game, whether you're going to Bloomington for

413
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 1: Senior Day for that amazing group down at Indiana University's

414
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 1: put together such back to back seasons, and again it

415
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:47,439
Speaker 1: is it is almost weird to think of Indiana and

416
00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 1: Wisconsin being so lopsided in favor of Indiana. That was

417
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,880
Speaker 1: the case in like the glory days the late eighties

418
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 1: and early nineties, although for as good as those days were,

419
00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 1: the glory days are right now for inding on a

420
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: football maybe we've got a change what we call the

421
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 1: Bill Balery era. They were the glory days. They've they've

422
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: been topped. That's how good the last couple of years

423
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 1: have been. And I'm curious if almost a lesson was

424
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: learned at Penn State because Penn State and Wisconsin are

425
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: kind of in similar boats. You know, Wisconsin has been

426
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: trending that direction for the last handful of years, and

427
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,399
Speaker 1: it certainly has the feel that there's going to be

428
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 1: an administration change at Wisconsin. At the end of the season,

429
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 1: they'll say thanks no, thanks to Luke Fickle, and they'll

430
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 1: kind of start back over again. But that programs at

431
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,439
Speaker 1: a low point that probably you got to go back

432
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: to the beginning of the Barry Alvarez days nearly nineties.

433
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: You know, Penn State was a much more dramatic fall

434
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,119
Speaker 1: and resulted in James Franklin being shown the door, and

435
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,639
Speaker 1: the Nitney Lyons are now, you know, zero to six

436
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: in terms of Big Ten play. Wisconsin just got their

437
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 1: first win. The Hoosiers brought their A game when they

438
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 1: had to to find the win on the road, and

439
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: again a they say defeated be they had never won

440
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 1: an Happy Valley before last Saturday. You kind of wondered,

441
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,360
Speaker 1: as I you go to school on that performance. Wisconsin

442
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 1: defensively is pretty good. Offensively they're not. But can Indiana

443
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,120
Speaker 1: save some of the late game dramatics from a week ago?

444
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 1: And then once you do that, knowing that again, if

445
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,160
Speaker 1: you do things right these last couple of weeks, you're

446
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 1: not playing a home game again because you're not playing

447
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,080
Speaker 1: in the opening round of the College Football Playoff. You're

448
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: going straight to the bowl round. You're going straight to

449
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: New Year's Eve and January first after you play Ohio

450
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 1: State again at Lucas Oil Stadium. So if your last

451
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 1: game of the season at home and you're the better

452
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 1: at team, can you do something that Wisconsin has had

453
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 1: a habit of doing to you, and that's running it up?

454
00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 1: Are we looking at that scenario after last week? You're

455
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: probably saying you, oh, let's just win the game and

456
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: not worry about that. But sixty two ten and eighty

457
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 1: three twenty just just a couple of reminders of the

458
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 1: not too distant past between Indiana and Wisconsin. Just some

459
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 1: food for thought going into that game. The weather's going

460
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: to be great, the beatdown might be as well. Three one, seven, nine,

461
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 1: ten seventy is the phone number that's voice or text.

462
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,720

00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 1: of a love for sweater vest as I do. I'm

467
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,160

Speaker 4: oh seven five the Fan You Know.

473
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:52,399
Speaker 1: Yesterday on the show, we had Wabash College head coach

474
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 1: Jake Gilbert. We had Depaw head coach Rt Deats, and

475
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 1: we played their schools fight songs as we led them

476
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 1: in the segment that is not the Butler War song,

477
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 1: just to make sure that I'm sure Blue four loves

478
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:07,959
Speaker 1: it and digs the song, and I'm sure social media

479
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 1: has done something with the Baja Men that is not

480
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,199
Speaker 1: the Butler Fight song. Just wanted to make sure we

481
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 1: specified that. It is wonderful to have the Bulldogs back

482
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 1: in the Radio one family. Even if most of their

483
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 1: games so far have been on the Spanish station ninety

484
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 1: two point seven, they will be on the fans soon enough.

485
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 1: I'll see if Mark minner A how his sweaterfester doing

Speaker 1: and be how his Espanola is as he joins us

487
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 1: right now on the Java House Peel and poor guest line.

488
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,680
Speaker 1: It has been too long, my friend, how are you?

489
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 5: How are you doing?

490
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 1: I'm good. I think you're barely old enough to remember

491
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,160
Speaker 1: the days of Dan Patrick on SportsCenter and in Fuego.

492
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:51,359
Speaker 2: Have you have you?

493
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 1: Have you worked it into a call just yet on

494
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 1: ninety two point seven.

495
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 6: We're we're in the lab right now tinkering with it.

496
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:02,439
Speaker 6: Garger and I We've got a lot of opportunity this season.

497
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:04,959
Speaker 6: And I'll tell you what. The Bulldogs were in Plago

498
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 6: in the first three games, So there are a lot

499
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 6: of opportunities.

500
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:11,800
Speaker 1: As the io anymore as the IU indie guy. Trust me,

501
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 1: one hundred and twelve points. I know you had plenty

502
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 1: of chance to work on things in that and again,

503
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,680
Speaker 1: this is the nature of major college basketball. You can

504
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,120
Speaker 1: ease your way into the schedule. It picks up. As

505
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,440
Speaker 1: of now, what have you learned about the Bulldog so far?

506
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it really does take up. The first

507
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 6: three games, they took care of business, each of those

508
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,200
Speaker 6: by thirty or more points. And so you look at

509
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,239
Speaker 6: what this rendition of the Bulldog's roster is and what

510
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,160
Speaker 6: you hear from that mound of this summer. It's a

511
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,280
Speaker 6: deeper team, a more athletic team, team that likes being

512
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 6: around each other, playing together. You've got a mix of

513
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,720
Speaker 6: top twenty five freshman class with some key transfers. We've

514
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 6: got a few key returners, so it's a balanced group

515
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,200
Speaker 6: and coaching staff with a lot of continuity. I think

516
00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 6: everybody was really excited about what this team could do

517
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 6: this summer, and so far to three games, we've seen

518
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 6: those different elements. It's been deep in the sense that

519
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 6: you've got essentially eleven guys averaging twelve or more minutes.

520
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 6: It's been athletic full display. Rebounding margin has been incredible

521
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 6: through the first three games. But again, you're playing at

522
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 6: home and you're playing against teams that you should be

523
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,920
Speaker 6: in those games. Michael Ajai's been as advertised, three double

524
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 6: doubles through his first three games. Finley Bizjack averaging almost

525
00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 6: fifteen points, had five first half threes against Chicago State,

526
00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 6: and this freshman class has got a lot of play

527
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 6: with those margins getting a little bit wider in those games.

528
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 6: So a lot of good things to be excited about

529
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 6: to the first few games.

530
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 5: And now you go on the road.

531
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 6: To SMU, an acc opponent, and that's your first true

532
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 6: road test. They've played all these games at Hinklefield House,

533
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 6: including the exhibitions, and then you go out to the

534
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 6: Greenbrier the following week with South Carolina and Virginia.

535
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 5: So next three come quickly.

536
00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 1: Obviously, I'm a little partial to the guys that are

537
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 1: from here because I I have covered them as a

538
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 1: high school player, or in Jalen Jackson's case, as both

539
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,480
Speaker 1: a high school and a college player, and he put

540
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: up good numbers at U, s put up great numbers

541
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:12,160
Speaker 1: at Purdue Fort Wayne, and I know from a physicality standpoint.

542
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 1: I think he's got that physicality to be able to

543
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 1: play at a Big East level as well. Early returns

544
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 1: on what sort of player he's going to be for

545
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 1: the Bulldogs all season long.

546
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 6: I think people are incredibly excited. You mentioned Jalen Jackson's sisters,

547
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 6: by the way, play for Balin women's basketball team as well.

548
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 6: In Jalen who averaged you know, nineteen points last year

549
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 6: perdue Fort Wayne, he's got that. You talked about, a

550
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:40,600
Speaker 6: physicality that size, the experience of veteran point guard for

551
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,719
Speaker 6: the Bulldogs. He's been battling a little bit of an

552
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 6: ankle right now, but when he's been on the floor,

553
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 6: you can tell the impact that he makes. He certainly

554
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 6: makes his teammates better. He can score in so many

555
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 6: different ways, and I think that's something that last year.

556
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,880
Speaker 6: You look back at last year's Bulldog team and they

557
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 6: were missing in Jalen Jackson. It allows Finley Bizjack to

558
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 6: a little bit more comfort Stink route, you know, you're

559
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 6: talking about another local kids Stink here from Lawrence North

560
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 6: as a freshman point guard to be able to learn

561
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 6: from work with support off the bench. Jalen Jackson's a

562
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,640
Speaker 6: big piece so him being healthy, him being able to

563
00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 6: be out there on the floor is going is certainly

564
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 6: a big catalyst. It was one of the first pickups

565
00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 6: the Bulldogs got in the portal. Actually we were out

566
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 6: in Las Vegas as part of the crowd last year.

567
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 6: So a big piece, big impact this summer. And certainly

568
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 6: somebody that you know has already proven himself at the

569
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 6: Division one level now trying to bring his talents down

570
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 6: to Indianapolis and si ie thinklefield House.

571
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 1: And again my guess would be I would have called

572
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 1: about forty of Stink Robinson's games at Lawrence North over

573
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: the last four seasons, and feel free to use a

574
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,320
Speaker 1: variation of this, because this I was developing during the season.

575
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 1: It happened during the course of the season, and I

576
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 1: would always say, listen, if you're the leading score in

577
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 1: the history of Lawrence North High School and your high

578
00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 1: school includes Mike Conley junior Greg god montrosse, you can

579
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 1: really play again. I know it's early. I'm so happy

580
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 1: that he is getting a role immediately. What does his

581
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 1: role need to be for this team to be successful

582
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:12,960
Speaker 1: this year?

583
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 6: Mark, Well, he's of the very talented freshman He's been

584
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 6: called on and He's going to be called on in

585
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 6: a very big way. He is backing up Jalen Jackson

586
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,760
Speaker 6: off the bench at that point guard spot, and has

587
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 6: mentioned if Jalen's a little bit hampered by that ankle injury,

588
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 6: he's going to be thrust even more into a spotlight. Offensively,

589
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 6: being able to run the offense, He's been able to

590
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 6: knock down shots. He's a capable offensive player. Were defensively

591
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 6: you knew he was capable. It has been so fun

592
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 6: to watch him. He is so scrappy, he is so pesky,

593
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 6: He stays low, he is able to create havoc on

594
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 6: ball pressure and his intensity that he brings not only

595
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 6: in practice into the game. The immediate boost you talk

596
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 6: about obviously his impact.

597
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 5: Leading score Lawrence North.

598
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:04,719
Speaker 6: I mean, you've said it all there, but how does

599
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 6: he translate quickly into the college game. His work ethic

600
00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 6: is on match coaching staff absolutely loves him, and so

601
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 6: I'm excited to see but he will have a big

602
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 6: role for this Butler Bulldogs team. And you know, I

603
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 6: think the other thing is he's a guy that at

604
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 6: the end of the day, what you're looking for is

605
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 6: somebody when they step out of that floor every time

606
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 6: they bring it with one hundred and ten percent.

607
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 1: He doesn't SMU what sort of challenged the Mustangs present

608
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 1: tomorrow afternoon?

609
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 5: Really good test.

610
00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 6: This is a home and home, the repeat of the

611
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 6: home and home Butler got the victory last year over SMU.

612
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 6: Andy Enfield coaching that Mustang squad. This is a really

613
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,840
Speaker 6: talking about talented freshman classes, the top five freshman class

614
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 6: for SMU. But they bring back some talented players. Boopy

615
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 6: Miller is the player to watch for them. Twenty one

616
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 6: points per game. You got Boopye, you get Finley, Bizjack,

617
00:32:56,400 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 6: you got great names in the backcourt. In tomorrow's matchup

618
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,680
Speaker 6: in Dallas. But this is a team that also leads

619
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 6: the country right now in free throws made per game. Now,

620
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 6: again everything's early, but you start to see some trends.

621
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 5: These are two teams in.

622
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 6: Butler and SMU that have had really fast and in

623
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 6: top twenty offensive possession tempo. But this team is going

624
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 6: to get to the line, and so if you're Butler,

625
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 6: you've got to be able to defend without fouling. They're

626
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 6: going to get to the line. I said, twenty seven

627
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,960
Speaker 6: makes per game that leads the country. They do have

628
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:30,720
Speaker 6: some veteran players. They brought in a transfer from Jacksonville

629
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 6: State who was one of the leading scorers last season

630
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:37,880
Speaker 6: in all of college basketball. And these really for both

631
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,080
Speaker 6: these two teams is their first test of the year.

632
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 6: SMU did get a good win over Murray State, which

633
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 6: is a top one fifty team and always a really

634
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,600
Speaker 6: good college basketball program for sure, But in terms of

635
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 6: high major opponents, we'll see what these two teams have

636
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 6: in store. For Butler, it's you know, can you continue

637
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 6: to do more of the same? Can you continue to

638
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 6: have balance? Can Michael Ajaani continue to impact the game,

639
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 6: continue to reach bound at at the rate that you've

640
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 6: been rebounding? Obviously not you know, can I necessarily expect

641
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 6: twenty plus twenty margins throughout the season? But can you

642
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:11,239
Speaker 6: be aggressive on the glass? And again, can you can

643
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,799
Speaker 6: you limit the fouls in this game?

644
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 5: Because that is what they are looking to do.

645
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:16,879
Speaker 6: They're not looking to shoot the three as much, They're

646
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 6: looking to drive it into the lane.

647
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,359
Speaker 1: Not that not that your broadcast is weather dependents being

648
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,719
Speaker 1: endorsed tomorrow, but what is the projected high temperature in

649
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 1: the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex tomorrow afternoon?

650
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 5: Inside?

651
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 6: I'm not sure what it's going to be outside yet

652
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,240
Speaker 6: inside I expect to ball me seventy two or something

653
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 6: like that. All right, so I will be uh, yeah, go,

654
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 6: I was gonna say, here's my thing.

655
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 1: You know where this is, you know where this is going.

656
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 1: I stick with the gimmick every time we talk. So

657
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:47,480
Speaker 1: sweater vest or no tomorrow.

658
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:53,160
Speaker 6: Afternoon, absolutely absolutely the day end and why I'll be there.

659
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:55,799
Speaker 6: And now, Greg, I did hear you so you got

660
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 6: Mona on bell tomorrow and you were talking about sledter

661
00:34:58,200 --> 00:34:58,720
Speaker 6: non slatter.

662
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 5: I caught that before. Yeah, just mix it a vest

663
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 5: for yourself.

664
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 1: That's well, that's what it's I have normally gone full

665
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:07,719
Speaker 1: length because frankly, at the Paul we have been at

666
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:10,719
Speaker 1: we're outdoors. Now we're covered, but we're outdoors, and while

667
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,439
Speaker 1: bash we have our own booth. So I'm thinking about

668
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 1: going sleeveless vest and then just kind of ditching the

669
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:20,080
Speaker 1: jacket when I'm off camera. This is this is the

670
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:22,040
Speaker 1: sort of things that once I'm prep for the game,

671
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:24,400
Speaker 1: These are the things that go through my mind. Just

672
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 1: like the next question I'm about to ask you. It

673
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:30,400
Speaker 1: appears you're spending Thanksgiving at the Greenbrier resort. Have you

674
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 1: checked out what the Thanksgiving menu is going to be

675
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:35,240
Speaker 1: for you guys next Thursday?

676
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 6: You know it's we I have not picked the menu yet.

677
00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:41,840
Speaker 6: It is my first time going to the Greenbrier, so

678
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 6: I'm I'm super excited for a lot of really cool

679
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 6: things out there.

680
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 5: You've been out there, Do you have any advice? No

681
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 5: for for me?

682
00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 1: And it's it's it's it's it's the Greenbrier. It's like

683
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 1: one of the best resorts in the country. Whatever they

684
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:54,799
Speaker 1: serve is gonna be great. Enjoy it and eat it.

685
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 1: Final thing, the next time the Bulldogs are at home.

686
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 1: I know sometimes you know you look over and see

687
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,040
Speaker 1: who the television talent is. You may not know who

688
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:09,400
Speaker 1: it is. When the Bulldogs are at Hinkle in two weeks,

689
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 1: You're gonna know who the guy sitting in that seat

690
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 1: is because it's the guy you're talking to right now.

691
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,239
Speaker 1: So be kind to that guy when you see him

692
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 1: for the right State game.

693
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:21,839
Speaker 6: Okay, I love that, Greg, And that just means we're

694
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 6: gonna have to get together beforehand and catch up exactly.

695
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:28,880
Speaker 1: We have an excuse to have either a beverage or

696
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 1: another type of beverage at some point in time between

697
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:33,839
Speaker 1: the next couple of weeks. Buddy, it's good. It's good

698
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,799
Speaker 1: to catch up with you. Give Nick my best and

699
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 1: I will see you a couple of weeks from now.

700
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,400
Speaker 5: Okay, absolutely, thanks Greg with for to see at Hinkle.

701
00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:43,840
Speaker 1: You got it. Mark Mendham the voice of the Bulldogs again.

702
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:47,640
Speaker 1: It's great for the program that they're back on this

703
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:51,319
Speaker 1: radio station or these radio stations. There was a point

704
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:52,360
Speaker 1: where they were just streaming.

705
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 2: Uh.

706
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:57,200
Speaker 1: It was Frankly a previous athletic partner of Butler. That

707
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,279
Speaker 1: is no longer the case. I let us manyks in

708
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:01,960
Speaker 1: that building. No, hey, you gotta fix this and the

709
00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:05,120
Speaker 1: Bulldogs for the next several games. The next time the

710
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:09,080
Speaker 1: Bulldogs are on here will be on Tuesday, December the second,

711
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 1: when they take on Eastern Michigan at Hinkle at seven o'clock.

712
00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:15,920
Speaker 1: And yes, if you tune in to watch the Bulldogs

713
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:19,760
Speaker 1: against Wright State on Friday, remember the twenty eighth. I'll

714
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 1: be doing the game on ESPN Plus and I'll talk

715
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 1: more about that maybe at some point in time later today,

716
00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 1: at some point in time as we get close to

717
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 1: the game, because Frankly, I'm filling in for Jake next

718
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,879
Speaker 1: Tuesday as well. We are late in getting to a break.

719
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,839
Speaker 1: I'll remedy that now. Back with bourn a moment ninety

00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:41,239
Speaker 4: seven five.

723
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 1: The fan just getting warmed up on this Friday afternoon.

724
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:49,320
Speaker 1: Greg Rakestraw in for Jake Query again. He is going

725
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 1: to Austria, not like Kangaroos and Foster's like Hill's relyve

726
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 1: with the sound of music, Austria. That one is where

727
00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 1: he is at. He and Shannon enjoying a little downtime.

00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 1: for that, I'm sure there'll be much rejoicing in his

732
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 1: Query and company. Neither the Query nor the company or

733
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 1: here today, because I assume that's Eddie's, you know, he's

734
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:24,880
Speaker 1: the company. At this point, Eddie was briefly the producer

735
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,239
Speaker 1: of Soccer Saturday, so it referred to him as Gotta

736
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:31,080
Speaker 1: Senio as if it like was his brilliant Brazilian name.

737
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 1: If you're a soccer nerd, you know that Vincent Company

738
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 1: Company with a K was one of the better players

739
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:42,799
Speaker 1: of his generation. I need to get Eddie one of

740
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:45,160
Speaker 1: his football shirts. That way he can just be the

741
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 1: company when he's sitting here next to Jake Query. We

742
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:49,480
Speaker 1: just had Mark Manner on the show again. You can

743
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:55,240
Speaker 1: catch Butler and SMU tomorrow on ninety two seven FM Fuego. Locally,

744
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 1: you can watch the game on Wish TV, as it's

745
00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 1: going to be on the CW most games, especially after

746
00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:04,439
Speaker 1: we get kind of into December and into January, et cetera.

747
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:06,440
Speaker 1: You can catch on ninety three to five and one

748
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,760
Speaker 1: oh seven to five. The fan kind of ran short

749
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:12,799
Speaker 1: of my time with Mark, but it's it's a real

750
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 1: simple equation. Okay, either you make the NCAA tournament or

751
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:20,440
Speaker 1: you don't. In other words, that's the line of demarcation

752
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,799
Speaker 1: for what makes a good season is getting this program

753
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:28,440
Speaker 1: back to being an at large representative or winning the

754
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:30,799
Speaker 1: Nobody's against winning the Big East Tournament or winning the

755
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:32,920
Speaker 1: Big East. Now, do I think Butler is talent through that?

756
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:37,040
Speaker 1: Probably not. Can they be an NCAA tournament team? I

757
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,400
Speaker 1: think they can, But again, what how the game is

758
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 1: played differently now? And we are now in year doing

759
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,480
Speaker 1: the math here. This is this pause is me counting

760
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:51,279
Speaker 1: fingers and toes and flipping the role of decks in

761
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 1: my head. This is the thirteenth year that Butler has

762
00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 1: been in the Big East. Okay, so playing a lot

763
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:02,319
Speaker 1: of major college competition should not be new from a

764
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 1: Butler fans standpoint. But frankly, what this does is this

765
00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 1: kind of shows you how the math has changed in

766
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,760
Speaker 1: terms of how a team schedule. Much like Indiana playing

767
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 1: Marquette on Sunday, Bridude going to Alabama and playing last night,

768
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 1: that the next three games for Butler are against ACC

769
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 1: SEC and ACC competition. Then you have a couple of

770
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 1: guarantee games. I'm not sure what the Boise State game

771
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 1: is if that's again a guarantee game meeting you're paying

772
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:32,640
Speaker 1: somebody to come play you and not returning the date.

773
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 1: But you've got Boise State from the Mountain West, will

774
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 1: be in the PAC twelve next year or some facsimile

775
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,840
Speaker 1: of the PAC twelve. Then you get to Big East play.

776
00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:45,239
Speaker 1: Then you play a Big ten team in Northwestern as

777
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:47,759
Speaker 1: part of the Indie Classic, and you've got one more

778
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:51,040
Speaker 1: by game, non conference game than's something but Big East games,

779
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:55,520
Speaker 1: in other words, the three game build up to get

780
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:58,320
Speaker 1: to this point. There is only a couple of games

781
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:02,560
Speaker 1: like that left for Butler. The majority of their games

782
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:06,759
Speaker 1: will be against teams that are NCAA tournament teams or

783
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 1: trying to get their way and have a legitimate shot

784
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:12,640
Speaker 1: of being NCAA tournament teams. So Butler has looked great.

785
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 1: They've won the games by thirty, thirty two and thirty two.

786
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 1: The fewest points they have scored is eighty eight. We're

787
00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:21,479
Speaker 1: gonna learn a lot more tomorrow. That continues against South

788
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:26,479
Speaker 1: Carolina on Friday. That continues against Virginia on Sunday. And yes,

789
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 1: I am fortunate to have the call of the game

790
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 1: against Right State coming up on November twenty eighth on

791
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:35,719
Speaker 1: ESPN Plus. All Right, we will get back to this

792
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:41,240
Speaker 1: at some point and time. But again, it's it's weird

793
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:44,919
Speaker 1: too have you have it every year, but especially when

794
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:48,840
Speaker 1: the Colts have been deemed to be the not ready

795
00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:53,319
Speaker 1: for primetime players. You're used to this being kind of

796
00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:56,279
Speaker 1: like the factory. You know, every Sunday the Colts are

797
00:41:56,280 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 1: playing one o'clock, four o'clock occasionally Sunday night game. Casion

798
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 1: win a night game, but for the first time so

799
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:07,800
Speaker 1: far this year, it is a Sunday without the Indianapolis Colts.

800
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:12,920
Speaker 1: Here are the games that matters. Bucks Bills one o'clock,

801
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:20,000
Speaker 1: Texans Titans matters kinda sorta because it's two divisional foes. Yes,

802
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 1: the Texans beat the Jaguars, which was very much a

803
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:26,399
Speaker 1: solid for the Indianapolis Colts last week, but it's still

804
00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 1: Davis Mills that is the starting quarterback and not CJ. Stroud.

805
00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:32,759
Speaker 1: So the Texans under this week three and a half

806
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:35,680
Speaker 1: games back of the Colts with two games left to

807
00:42:35,719 --> 00:42:40,719
Speaker 1: play against the Colts, so again it matters. Bengals Steelers

808
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 1: matters because again the Steelers have beaten the Colts, so

809
00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:46,360
Speaker 1: having that tiebreaker against the team, the Steelers haven't exactly

810
00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:48,879
Speaker 1: backed up. They're winning against the Colts with how they

811
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:55,280
Speaker 1: played the following week. Chargers Jaguars definitively matters for the Colts,

812
00:42:55,280 --> 00:43:00,840
Speaker 1: that too is a one o'clock game, and maybe Ravens

813
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:03,200
Speaker 1: Browns a certain degree, but obviously Chiefs Broncos is a

814
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:06,120
Speaker 1: big deal given that's whom the Colts play when they

815
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 1: come back, and again given the fact that if the

816
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:10,719
Speaker 1: Broncos win, they're back to being a half game up

817
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:14,399
Speaker 1: on the Colts, as the Patriots now are with what

818
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:16,560
Speaker 1: they did with their win a night to go against

819
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:20,480
Speaker 1: the Jets twenty seven to fourteen. So plenty of football

820
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:25,480
Speaker 1: to watch on Sunday for Colts fans, plenty of college

821
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:28,680
Speaker 1: football to digest for fans of any kind here in

822
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 1: the state tomorrow, and we'll we talked a lot about

823
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:33,560
Speaker 1: the yesterday. It was kind of football day today seemingly

824
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:36,600
Speaker 1: his basketball day. We'll double back to football coming up

825
00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:38,400
Speaker 1: a little bit later on the program. We owe you

826
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 1: a quick time out when we come back, more about

827
00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:44,240
Speaker 1: Purdues win in Tuscaloosa. The man on the radio network

828
00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:46,080
Speaker 1: call mot as the play by play guy, but as

829
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:48,680
Speaker 1: the analyst. Bobby Riddell will join us when we come back.

830
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,399
Speaker 1: It's Greg Reichstrawan for Jay Query ninety three to five

831
00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:52,799
Speaker 1: and one oh seven to five The Fan.

832
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:55,919
Speaker 4: You're listening to Query and Company on ninety three five

833
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:57,719
Speaker 4: and one oh seven five The Fan.

834
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,800
Speaker 1: Clearly, there is a theme that Nathan has put together

835
00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:04,440
Speaker 1: for the show today, and that is things that are

836
00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:09,719
Speaker 1: attached to a state or a nickname, but like aren't officially.

837
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 1: I don't think Alabama has made this like the official

838
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:16,920
Speaker 1: state song or the fight song for the Crimson Tide.

839
00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:20,120
Speaker 1: But it was the Boiler Express that ended up leaving

840
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:23,160
Speaker 1: that building at the Coliseum last night with an eighty

841
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,279
Speaker 1: seven eighty victory. The man that had to call on

842
00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:29,160
Speaker 1: the Purdue Radio Network longtime player now analyst for the

843
00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:34,240
Speaker 1: boiler Makers, Bobby Riddell aka Bobby Buckets, that joins us. Now, Hello,

844
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:37,440
Speaker 1: my friend. How are you, hey, Greg?

845
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 7: I'm doing well, doing especially well considering last night's result.

846
00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:45,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, no kidding, I know that these trips kind of

847
00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 1: become routine for you. You know, you fly in afternoon before

848
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:52,759
Speaker 1: or night before, play the game, flyout, and you're back

849
00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:55,600
Speaker 1: in West Lafayette. The reason I bring that up is

850
00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:58,719
Speaker 1: that when you're around Tuscaloosa for about twenty four to

851
00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:02,680
Speaker 1: thirty six hours, were people really talking about this basketball

852
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:05,160
Speaker 1: game or were they talking about the Sooners coming to

853
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:06,080
Speaker 1: town on Saturday?

854
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:09,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was definitely.

855
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:12,239
Speaker 7: I'm sure, you know, you kind of live in your

856
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:13,960
Speaker 7: own little bubble at the hotel and.

857
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:16,879
Speaker 2: You don't get out too much, but.

858
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:21,239
Speaker 7: Yeah, I presume the fans were certainly astatic about the

859
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:23,520
Speaker 7: Boilers coming to town. And you know, a top ten clash,

860
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:27,160
Speaker 7: But we jokingly said after we were able to come

861
00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:30,400
Speaker 7: out of their victorious that I'm sure their fans were disappointed,

862
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:33,359
Speaker 7: but if the football game goes their way Saturday, I'm

863
00:45:33,360 --> 00:45:37,720
Speaker 7: sure they'll be much more excited about that than maybe

864
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:39,759
Speaker 7: even the loss in basketball.

865
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 1: Well, I talk about kind of the you know, the

866
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:44,040
Speaker 1: traveling on to Rodge, the party and you all kind

867
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,720
Speaker 1: of live on the same schedule when you're on the road.

868
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:49,440
Speaker 1: Has it struck he yet, even so early in the season,

869
00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:51,960
Speaker 1: this is the last time you get to do that

870
00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:55,560
Speaker 1: with people like Braden Smith, Trey Kaufman Run and Fletcher Lawyer.

871
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:57,359
Speaker 2: Man.

872
00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:59,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, it is starting to hit me a little bit.

873
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:03,080
Speaker 7: It's obviously got a long season to go, but it.

874
00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:06,120
Speaker 2: Is pretty wild. It feels like yesterday, honestly.

875
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:08,640
Speaker 7: To me that we flew out to Portland to play

876
00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 7: in the PK eighty five tournament to go against you

877
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 7: and Zach again, Duke and all those teams in Braden

878
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 7: Smith and Fletcher. Where were these new freshman guards on

879
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:22,600
Speaker 7: the scene. And we obviously kind of took the country

880
00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 7: by storm there and surprised some people. With Zach Edie

881
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:28,520
Speaker 7: leading the way as a junior and winning that tournament

882
00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:32,160
Speaker 7: and man, those freshman guards that just showed out and

883
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:36,320
Speaker 7: that experience, and I can't believe it's already four years

884
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:37,840
Speaker 7: later and these guys are seniors.

885
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:40,160
Speaker 2: It's pretty wild to think how quick it goes.

886
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 1: Well, again, you're spoiled by what you have seen from them.

887
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,320
Speaker 1: Brayden and Fletcher remember of the course of four years

888
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:48,320
Speaker 1: because of those in front of them, and kind of

889
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:50,359
Speaker 1: took Treyman to get going. But now he is as

890
00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,360
Speaker 1: dominant of a force as there is in terms of

891
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:57,840
Speaker 1: college basketball. Is it almost tougher to impress you because

892
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:00,920
Speaker 1: you're so used to seeing great things from especially two

893
00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:02,920
Speaker 1: of those three?

894
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:05,239
Speaker 7: Yeah, you're right, I mean Trek coffin Rend Yeah, I

895
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:06,759
Speaker 7: forgot to mention him. He of course was on that

896
00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:09,400
Speaker 7: team that went out to Portland as well. But his

897
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:11,400
Speaker 7: career is kind of an interesting, right he. I was

898
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:13,120
Speaker 7: talking with him the other day and he talked about

899
00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:16,080
Speaker 7: kind of how unique it is for him and how

900
00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:18,040
Speaker 7: kind of relatable he can be to all the different

901
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,680
Speaker 7: guys on the team as a senior captain and leader,

902
00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:25,080
Speaker 7: because he really has played every role you can play

903
00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:25,879
Speaker 7: within a team.

904
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:28,640
Speaker 2: Right. You go from being someone who wasn't.

905
00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:30,160
Speaker 7: Going to be in the rotation as a true freshman,

906
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:32,960
Speaker 7: So you decide the red shirt, You sit the season out,

907
00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 7: you work on your game, you work on your body,

908
00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:38,600
Speaker 7: try to make improvements, and then the next year you're

909
00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:40,239
Speaker 7: in that backup role, backing.

910
00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:40,520
Speaker 2: Up a star.

911
00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:42,759
Speaker 7: So you play kind of the five to ten minutes

912
00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:45,359
Speaker 7: a game that are available. Maybe a little bit more

913
00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 7: if a certain guy gets in fall trouble ahead of you,

914
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:49,239
Speaker 7: but for the most part you're.

915
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:50,480
Speaker 2: Kind of playing that limited role.

916
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,440
Speaker 7: And then as a sophomore, now he's starting, but he's

917
00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:55,839
Speaker 7: not a focal point in that starting lineup, playing a role,

918
00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:58,040
Speaker 7: and then all of a sudden last year, yeah, he

919
00:47:58,080 --> 00:48:01,360
Speaker 7: becomes a focal point, becomes that main force in the interior,

920
00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:04,960
Speaker 7: and then parlaid that into his senior year. And yeah,

921
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:07,359
Speaker 7: we sure we missed him a lot those first couple

922
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:07,800
Speaker 7: of games.

923
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:10,480
Speaker 2: His presence, you know, both on both ends of the floor,

924
00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:12,160
Speaker 2: especially on the glass.

925
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:14,640
Speaker 7: As we saw last night he comes out and drops

926
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:18,399
Speaker 7: fifteen rebounds in his first game action regular season action

927
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:23,239
Speaker 7: of the season. Obviously provides that kind of secondary creator.

928
00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:26,520
Speaker 7: When he plays that two man game as Braden Smith,

929
00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:28,120
Speaker 7: he gets those pocket passes and he.

930
00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:31,120
Speaker 2: Can facilitate he can score, and then.

931
00:48:31,080 --> 00:48:33,200
Speaker 7: Just having that bona fide presence on the block that

932
00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:36,440
Speaker 7: obviously can score on the interior against pretty much anybody

933
00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 7: in the country if he's.

934
00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:38,800
Speaker 2: Won on left one on one.

935
00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:41,400
Speaker 7: But he's not a selfish GUYI there's very similar to

936
00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:44,399
Speaker 7: Zachiee before him. If you're gonna put two guys on him,

937
00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:47,239
Speaker 7: he's gonna make the extra pass and punish you for

938
00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:51,520
Speaker 7: doing so. So yeah, it was great to have him back.

939
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:54,680
Speaker 7: His play in the first half was remarkable. Just the

940
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:56,719
Speaker 7: intensity and fire he came out with. I felt like

941
00:48:58,120 --> 00:48:59,719
Speaker 7: a lot of us were just wanting to see this

942
00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:02,560
Speaker 7: team play with a little bit more energy and intensity

943
00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:05,399
Speaker 7: that we'd seen early in the season, and we really

944
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:07,040
Speaker 7: brought the fight and I thought he was a big

945
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:07,680
Speaker 7: piece of that.

946
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:10,359
Speaker 1: Last night, Body Riddell again Purdue Radio joining us here,

947
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:13,200
Speaker 1: Greg Reikstrap filling in for j Query Bobby's appearance on

948
00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,840
Speaker 1: the Java House Peel and Poor guest line here on

949
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:17,640
Speaker 1: ninety three to five and one oh seven five the

950
00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:20,160
Speaker 1: fan Listen. I know your main concern is is what

951
00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:22,800
Speaker 1: these guys are doing in black and gold, But spinning

952
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:25,120
Speaker 1: it forward, listen, I think Braden Smiss an NBA guard.

953
00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:27,240
Speaker 1: I think we kind of knowed that by now Fletcher

954
00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:30,440
Speaker 1: might be more of of NBA G League, maybe Europe.

955
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:34,600
Speaker 1: How do you see Trey's skill set and size translating

956
00:49:34,640 --> 00:49:36,279
Speaker 1: at the NBA level because now it's more of a

957
00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:39,239
Speaker 1: space and pace game and kind of open post. Does

958
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:41,760
Speaker 1: that actually help him in terms of being an NBA player?

959
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:44,279
Speaker 1: What do you think next level looks like for Trey

960
00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:45,040
Speaker 1: Kaufman rehn.

961
00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:49,759
Speaker 2: Man. That's a fascinating question, isn't it.

962
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:52,799
Speaker 7: It's you're right, his skill set is not something that

963
00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:58,080
Speaker 7: necessarily on paper looks like it's going to translate super

964
00:49:58,080 --> 00:49:59,960
Speaker 7: well to the NBA, just based on the style of

965
00:50:00,080 --> 00:50:04,960
Speaker 7: play the NBA plays with how much it prioritizes, you know,

966
00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:08,240
Speaker 7: shooting threes and finishing at the rim. You know, Trey's

967
00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:09,680
Speaker 7: kind of bread and butter is more of that mid

968
00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:13,440
Speaker 7: range game. I think somebody that he kind of reminds

969
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:15,799
Speaker 7: me of as far as a player comp is a

970
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 7: guy Drew Timmy, who played at Gonzaga and was extremely

971
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:23,400
Speaker 7: successful as a college player there as we all remember,

972
00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:25,920
Speaker 7: and has kind of been able to have I think

973
00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:28,160
Speaker 7: a cup of coffee here or there in the NBA

974
00:50:28,880 --> 00:50:32,040
Speaker 7: I don't believe he's currently on an active roster, but

975
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:33,600
Speaker 7: it's kind of in the mix and that kind of

976
00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:37,640
Speaker 7: G League sure situation, and that's kind of where I

977
00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:40,120
Speaker 7: see Trey projecting out kind of in that same sort

978
00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:41,879
Speaker 7: of Hey, if he can get on the right team

979
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:44,840
Speaker 7: in the right spot, if his skill set is what

980
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:47,600
Speaker 7: they're lacking, you know, maybe there's a chance he can,

981
00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:50,640
Speaker 7: you know, find a niche on that team and.

982
00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:52,680
Speaker 2: Provide what he does so well.

983
00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:55,080
Speaker 7: But there's also a chance that if he doesn't get

984
00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:57,120
Speaker 7: in the right situation with the right team, that maybe,

985
00:50:57,320 --> 00:50:59,239
Speaker 7: you know, he's kind of one of those tweeners where

986
00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:04,560
Speaker 7: he just doesn't white get that opportunity that I think

987
00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:06,240
Speaker 7: we all would love to see him. I mean, it's

988
00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:08,799
Speaker 7: I think he's such a talented player. I mean, his

989
00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:12,600
Speaker 7: finishing ability is you know, second to none when it

990
00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:15,440
Speaker 7: comes to, you know, finishing with those floaters. I Mean,

991
00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:17,600
Speaker 7: we all know how difficult that shot is, and.

992
00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:18,600
Speaker 2: He makes it look easy.

993
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:21,719
Speaker 7: But you know, he's obviously not the greatest athlete in

994
00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:25,000
Speaker 7: the world. You know, as far as the set, if

995
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:26,239
Speaker 7: he was going to try to play center at the

996
00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 7: next level, it would have to be kind of that

997
00:51:27,680 --> 00:51:30,520
Speaker 7: small ball right center type player, and a guy like

998
00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:33,439
Speaker 7: Draymond Green has been able to play that small ball

999
00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:37,000
Speaker 7: center super effectively at times throughout his career. You know,

1000
00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:40,880
Speaker 7: whether Trey can be that level of elite impact defender

1001
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:44,040
Speaker 7: that Draymond is is certainly something that Trey would have

1002
00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:45,480
Speaker 7: to try to develop into.

1003
00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:47,319
Speaker 2: I think Trey is a better defender than he gets

1004
00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:47,759
Speaker 2: credit for.

1005
00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:50,200
Speaker 7: But you know, Draymond, of course is one of the

1006
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:53,040
Speaker 7: best defenders of all time at the NBA level, So

1007
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:55,480
Speaker 7: it'll it'll be interesting. You know, he might have to

1008
00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:57,839
Speaker 7: try to reinvent himself in some certain ways to try

1009
00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:00,680
Speaker 7: to fit in at the NBA level, but I hope

1010
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:01,200
Speaker 7: it happens.

1011
00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 2: It'll be interesting to see. I certainly think.

1012
00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:05,360
Speaker 7: I'll get an opportunity in the NBA Summer League to

1013
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:06,160
Speaker 7: try to prove themself.

1014
00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:08,680
Speaker 1: All right, So when you have a big three that

1015
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:11,400
Speaker 1: is back in this era of change, when you know

1016
00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:13,719
Speaker 1: your top three guys are the same top three guys

1017
00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:17,279
Speaker 1: you had last year, and they're so good and so experienced,

1018
00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:19,360
Speaker 1: sense of reason why Purdue is the number one or

1019
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:21,840
Speaker 1: number two team in the country. Obviously most of the

1020
00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 1: pieces around them in the rotation now have changed and

1021
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:27,640
Speaker 1: I realize how early it is in the season. How

1022
00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:29,680
Speaker 1: is this team different than it was a year ago?

1023
00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:32,359
Speaker 1: Better or worse? How do you think this is a

1024
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:34,759
Speaker 1: different team than the one that was pretty good last

1025
00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 1: year too?

1026
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:39,880
Speaker 2: Right, it's definitely a different dynamic.

1027
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:42,240
Speaker 7: You're right, there's you know, the big three are back,

1028
00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:44,440
Speaker 7: so the offense is going to run through those guys

1029
00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:46,920
Speaker 7: just like it ran through them last year. And I

1030
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:49,520
Speaker 7: think most people would acknowledge that the offense for us

1031
00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:51,720
Speaker 7: last year was not an issue.

1032
00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:52,359
Speaker 2: For the most part.

1033
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:55,719
Speaker 7: We had I think offensive efficiency wise. I think we

1034
00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:57,960
Speaker 7: were seventh in the country for ken palm at the

1035
00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:01,600
Speaker 7: end of the season, so clearly was a strength. But

1036
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:05,080
Speaker 7: even that, you know, there's still room for improvement. Right,

1037
00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 7: there's six spots you can move up to try to

1038
00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:09,719
Speaker 7: get to the number one overall, and I know PJ.

1039
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:11,960
Speaker 7: Thompson and coach Painter and the rest of the offensive

1040
00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:15,759
Speaker 7: staff definitely is striving for that number one spot and

1041
00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:18,800
Speaker 7: wants to get as efficient as possible. And there's definitely

1042
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:22,160
Speaker 7: some areas with some of the additions on this year's

1043
00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:24,239
Speaker 7: team where I think we can make those improvements. I

1044
00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:29,759
Speaker 7: think Oscar Cloff and Trekoff and Ren in particular.

1045
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:30,640
Speaker 2: On the offensive glass.

1046
00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:33,799
Speaker 7: Last night really showed that's an area where just because

1047
00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:35,640
Speaker 7: we missed that first shot, it doesn't mean we're want

1048
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:38,160
Speaker 7: to done like we were a lot of times last year.

1049
00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:41,600
Speaker 7: We have an ability to crush teams on the offensive glass,

1050
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:45,279
Speaker 7: get those second chance opportunities and capitalize on those. That's

1051
00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:50,000
Speaker 7: an area with Oscar Cloff at the center spot such

1052
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:51,719
Speaker 7: a cold rebounder and own right, and then trek k

1053
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:54,719
Speaker 7: Hoffman ren now with the power forward spot a lot

1054
00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:57,840
Speaker 7: of times, him being guarded now maybe by more traditional

1055
00:53:57,880 --> 00:54:01,319
Speaker 7: power forwards an area where and then physically is maybe

1056
00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:03,000
Speaker 7: as overmatch as he was a lot of times going

1057
00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:06,000
Speaker 7: against other teams centers allow him to get on the

1058
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:09,480
Speaker 7: offensive glass even more. And then Daniel Jacobson, even though

1059
00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:13,880
Speaker 7: rebounding isn't maybe necessarily his calling card, when you're seven foot.

1060
00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:15,360
Speaker 2: Foard athletic like he is, you're just going to be

1061
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:17,240
Speaker 2: able to get to some balls that other guys can't.

1062
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:20,440
Speaker 7: And I think he can help certainly getting on the

1063
00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:24,880
Speaker 7: offensive glass at times too. And his length at that

1064
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 7: backup center spot we saw it last night right. His

1065
00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:30,520
Speaker 7: ability to be a lob threat put some pressure in

1066
00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:33,560
Speaker 7: the back line of the defense gives Brad Smith a

1067
00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:35,520
Speaker 7: guy who can throw that ball up too, and Daniel

1068
00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:37,279
Speaker 7: can reach some spots that a lot of guys can

1069
00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:39,960
Speaker 7: and that's going to make our offense more dynamic.

1070
00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:42,879
Speaker 2: And Jack Benner too, you.

1071
00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:45,200
Speaker 7: Know, he's kind of he can give you a lot

1072
00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:47,000
Speaker 7: of what Cam and Heide gave you last year as

1073
00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:48,280
Speaker 7: far as that small ball four.

1074
00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:49,200
Speaker 2: Can step out and shoot.

1075
00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:52,360
Speaker 7: But you know, as good as Cam Heid he was,

1076
00:54:52,400 --> 00:54:55,480
Speaker 7: at times, I think his shot was inconsistent, and I

1077
00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:58,759
Speaker 7: think Jack Benner is kind of that more proven, legitimate

1078
00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:01,960
Speaker 7: long range shooter, and you know, he potentially could make

1079
00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:04,960
Speaker 7: us even more legitimate as far as having one more

1080
00:55:05,040 --> 00:55:07,280
Speaker 7: knockdown shooter on the floor when he's.

1081
00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:09,359
Speaker 2: In the game, and it can give you that different look.

1082
00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 5: You know.

1083
00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:11,280
Speaker 7: I think that's what's kind of nice for us offensively

1084
00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:13,760
Speaker 7: this year. We can go with the two big look

1085
00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:16,680
Speaker 7: and try and you know, crush you on the glass,

1086
00:55:16,719 --> 00:55:20,440
Speaker 7: but we can also bring Jack in and spread you

1087
00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:24,040
Speaker 7: out four shooters around, you know, whether that's maybe Trey

1088
00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:26,120
Speaker 7: or Oscar Cluff, a guy that can score down low.

1089
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:30,040
Speaker 7: You provide that extra spacing with Jack and we can

1090
00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:32,440
Speaker 7: really beat you from the outside and that sort of

1091
00:55:32,480 --> 00:55:36,000
Speaker 7: alignment as well. So I love what what that group

1092
00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:38,520
Speaker 7: can be offensively for this year's team. And then omer Meyer, right,

1093
00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:41,359
Speaker 7: like you saw what he did last night, how often

1094
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:43,000
Speaker 7: last year when Braden Swith is out of the game,

1095
00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:47,759
Speaker 7: which honestly was not very much because we knew how

1096
00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:50,759
Speaker 7: important he was to the team and he played the

1097
00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:53,520
Speaker 7: line share of those point guard minutes. But you know

1098
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:55,799
Speaker 7: there were times where he showed fatigue and it would

1099
00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:57,120
Speaker 7: be nice to go to give him a breather. And

1100
00:55:57,120 --> 00:55:59,959
Speaker 7: we saw last night omer Meyer, you give Braidon a breathe,

1101
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:02,640
Speaker 7: and you don't worry as much now about when Braden's

1102
00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:06,600
Speaker 7: off the floor, can we generate good offense? Meyer comes in,

1103
00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:09,120
Speaker 7: makes three straight shots in a row, is able to

1104
00:56:09,120 --> 00:56:14,160
Speaker 7: find Kaufman, Renn and others for some baskets facilitating, And

1105
00:56:14,520 --> 00:56:16,560
Speaker 7: so the drop off at the point guard position when

1106
00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:18,520
Speaker 7: Braden comes off the floor can get a breather or

1107
00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:21,719
Speaker 7: maybe foul trouble, things of that nature. You don't anticipate

1108
00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:24,640
Speaker 7: being nearly as much because Omermeyer is clearly a pretty

1109
00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:26,600
Speaker 7: legitimate playmaker in his own right.

1110
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:29,400
Speaker 1: Obviously you know this as a player and now you

1111
00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:32,400
Speaker 1: see it as an analyst again, last night was great.

1112
00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:35,200
Speaker 1: Last night was a wonderful win, and we still got

1113
00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:37,839
Speaker 1: a lot of season left to go. Now, if these

1114
00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:40,400
Speaker 1: two teams are to see each other again, it's going

1115
00:56:40,480 --> 00:56:42,759
Speaker 1: to be three or four months from now, I mean

1116
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:45,799
Speaker 1: before that happens. So as a as a guy like

1117
00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:49,520
Speaker 1: Matt Painter, how do you kind of keep your team focused?

1118
00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:52,560
Speaker 1: How do you keep such a high level from November

1119
00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:56,000
Speaker 1: fourteenth until you hope, all the way to Easter weekend?

1120
00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:58,879
Speaker 1: How do you possibly do that during the entire length

1121
00:56:59,239 --> 00:57:02,399
Speaker 1: of a college bast bsketball season when frankly the expectations

1122
00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:04,799
Speaker 1: are as high as they are for this group.

1123
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:09,840
Speaker 7: Right, That's definitely a one of the challenges for the

1124
00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:13,279
Speaker 7: coaching staff. Certainly they I feel like they did a

1125
00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:16,320
Speaker 7: great job navigating that two years ago when we had

1126
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:19,800
Speaker 7: Zach Edie back for his senior season, you know, coming

1127
00:57:19,840 --> 00:57:22,640
Speaker 7: off of the disappointment of losing in that first round

1128
00:57:22,720 --> 00:57:26,360
Speaker 7: the year before, all super high expectations with that whole

1129
00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:29,160
Speaker 7: core coming back, and they had to deal with that too,

1130
00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:32,320
Speaker 7: trying to make sure you didn't get ahead of yourself

1131
00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:34,800
Speaker 7: and try to get back to March to make amends

1132
00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:36,600
Speaker 7: for the loss. You had to try to go through

1133
00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:39,840
Speaker 7: the season, take one day at a time, and to

1134
00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:42,520
Speaker 7: reach your goals, and I think they're going to be

1135
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 7: you know, take that same mindset this time, whereas, yes,

1136
00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:46,800
Speaker 7: we want to get to March.

1137
00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:49,040
Speaker 2: We want to try to make.

1138
00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:52,720
Speaker 7: A run to get to Indianapolis and win a national championship.

1139
00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:55,720
Speaker 7: But to get there, we got to put ourselves in

1140
00:57:55,720 --> 00:57:58,080
Speaker 7: the best position possible. And to do that, you know,

1141
00:57:58,280 --> 00:57:59,840
Speaker 7: we have to get try to get a number one

1142
00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:03,360
Speaker 7: umber two seed in InSb a tournament, and each game

1143
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:05,520
Speaker 7: along the way is going to be impactful for trying

1144
00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:09,200
Speaker 7: to get that seeding. And hopefully, you know, that's where

1145
00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:11,760
Speaker 7: this team is able to kind of compartmentalize that and

1146
00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:14,880
Speaker 7: make it one game at a time and try to

1147
00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:17,600
Speaker 7: stack wins and stack resume builders. Last night was a

1148
00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:20,600
Speaker 7: massive resume building win that certainly could go a long

1149
00:58:20,640 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 7: way to trying to get a one seed March. And yeah,

1150
00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:28,080
Speaker 7: that's that's going to be the challenge for this year's staff.

1151
00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:30,840
Speaker 7: But the fact that they've done it just as recent

1152
00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:32,880
Speaker 7: as two years ago, I think, and a lot of

1153
00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:34,720
Speaker 7: those guys on this year's team are on that team.

1154
00:58:35,480 --> 00:58:38,640
Speaker 7: I think the Predue culture is built to handle that sort.

1155
00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:42,880
Speaker 1: Of thing Bahamas after a gam against Akron that takes

1156
00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:45,680
Speaker 1: place on Sunday night. Have you kept track of like

1157
00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:48,920
Speaker 1: different countries slash how many states you have been to

1158
00:58:49,560 --> 00:58:51,760
Speaker 1: as part of Purdue basketball at this point in time.

1159
00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:56,320
Speaker 7: Well, I don't know if I have it off the

1160
00:58:56,360 --> 00:58:59,680
Speaker 7: top of my head by any means, but it's definitely

1161
00:58:59,720 --> 00:59:03,320
Speaker 7: been a massive perk as part of my involvement with

1162
00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:04,680
Speaker 7: Purdue basketball over the years.

1163
00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:06,760
Speaker 2: Definitely don't take that for granted.

1164
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:10,200
Speaker 7: It's really neat to be able to go and see

1165
00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:13,320
Speaker 7: all the different cool basketball venues that I've gotten to

1166
00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:17,960
Speaker 7: see from my time as a player to this period

1167
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:20,320
Speaker 7: now as a color analyst with the radio.

1168
00:59:20,400 --> 00:59:21,360
Speaker 2: It's been really.

1169
00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:24,240
Speaker 7: Cool to travel to different parts of the world, different

1170
00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:27,600
Speaker 7: areas of the United States, and just some of the

1171
00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:31,040
Speaker 7: meccas of college basketball. Getting to go to the Palestra,

1172
00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:33,920
Speaker 7: for example, a couple of years ago was a really

1173
00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:37,680
Speaker 7: neat experience. And yeah, I don't take that for granted.

1174
00:59:37,720 --> 00:59:41,680
Speaker 7: It's always kind of just to pinch yourself type of thing.

1175
00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:45,320
Speaker 7: Ryan Smith, who was a player when I played, He

1176
00:59:45,440 --> 00:59:47,680
Speaker 7: now works for the joh Purdue Club and was on

1177
00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:51,360
Speaker 7: the trip last night as well, working for the John

1178
00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:53,160
Speaker 7: Purdue club, and him and I were talking on the

1179
00:59:53,160 --> 00:59:56,000
Speaker 7: plane after the game, just kind of pinching ourselves a

1180
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:57,760
Speaker 7: little bit, like, man, how cool was it?

1181
00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:00,200
Speaker 2: Just you know, get to do what we get.

1182
01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:03,680
Speaker 7: Do and travel team and get to be in those

1183
01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:05,520
Speaker 7: sorts of environments and be a part of these kind

1184
01:00:05,560 --> 01:00:09,440
Speaker 7: of wins. Even though we're not technically on the team

1185
01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:12,320
Speaker 7: or on the staff, we still kind of feel like

1186
01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:14,840
Speaker 7: we are in some ways when you get involved in

1187
01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:18,360
Speaker 7: those trips, and yeah, it's pretty special for sure.

1188
01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:20,040
Speaker 1: My rule of thumb is around the team playing, you

1189
01:00:20,040 --> 01:00:22,520
Speaker 1: can say we it's okay, you can mention that we

1190
01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:24,560
Speaker 1: I like that at that point in time. Finally before

1191
01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:27,520
Speaker 1: we let you go listen. This happens on a more

1192
01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:31,760
Speaker 1: regular basis now because of player movement. Memphis is the

1193
01:00:31,760 --> 01:00:34,680
Speaker 1: first game in the Championship down there in the Bahamas.

1194
01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:37,480
Speaker 1: You're gonna play Texas Taker or Texas Taker wake Forest

1195
01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:40,320
Speaker 1: in game number two. If it's Wake Forest and if

1196
01:00:40,320 --> 01:00:43,000
Speaker 1: it's Miles Coleman on the other side, what sort of

1197
01:00:43,040 --> 01:00:45,560
Speaker 1: extra juice is in that game because he was on

1198
01:00:45,600 --> 01:00:49,440
Speaker 1: this team the last couple of years, Well.

1199
01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:51,720
Speaker 2: No doubt there's gonna be extra juice. If that's the case.

1200
01:00:51,800 --> 01:00:55,960
Speaker 7: Certainly with the guys on the floor, right, just because

1201
01:00:57,040 --> 01:00:59,480
Speaker 7: you have that sort of connection with him, and those

1202
01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:00,960
Speaker 7: guys know and so they'll be that.

1203
01:01:01,160 --> 01:01:01,840
Speaker 2: I'm sure it'll be.

1204
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:04,960
Speaker 7: Friendly for the most part, of course, but they'll definitely

1205
01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:07,640
Speaker 7: be that competition level that ramps up.

1206
01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:09,680
Speaker 2: The intensity level of the ramps up because.

1207
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:12,520
Speaker 7: The Pruter guys won't want Miles to have one up

1208
01:01:12,520 --> 01:01:16,600
Speaker 7: on them, and Miles will definitely be inspired, you would think,

1209
01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:19,600
Speaker 7: to try to have one of his better games against

1210
01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:21,240
Speaker 7: the school he just departed.

1211
01:01:21,320 --> 01:01:22,720
Speaker 2: So that would.

1212
01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:24,880
Speaker 7: Definitely make for some interest in theater if that comes

1213
01:01:24,920 --> 01:01:29,040
Speaker 7: to fruition Golden Black School versus Golden Black School from

1214
01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:33,520
Speaker 7: a school colors standpoint, and Miles going against his former squad,

1215
01:01:33,560 --> 01:01:36,600
Speaker 7: that would be neat if it happens. Hopefully it happens

1216
01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:39,520
Speaker 7: because both teams win the first game, which means we'll

1217
01:01:39,520 --> 01:01:40,880
Speaker 7: be facing off in the championship.

1218
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:44,080
Speaker 2: But yeah, that'll be interesting to see.

1219
01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:46,480
Speaker 7: They certainly put a pretty good foot forward the other

1220
01:01:46,560 --> 01:01:49,880
Speaker 7: night when they ended up losing to Michigan in overtime.

1221
01:01:49,920 --> 01:01:52,360
Speaker 7: But they clearly showed in that game that they can

1222
01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:54,680
Speaker 7: play with the best of the best in the country.

1223
01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:56,080
Speaker 2: Because we all know how talented.

1224
01:01:56,120 --> 01:02:00,680
Speaker 7: This year's Michigan team is so interested to see Memphis

1225
01:02:00,720 --> 01:02:01,760
Speaker 7: and our first matchup.

1226
01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:04,200
Speaker 2: They've always got athletes led.

1227
01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:07,919
Speaker 7: By Penny Hardaway at the Helm and then Texas Tech

1228
01:02:08,160 --> 01:02:11,000
Speaker 7: clearly looks legit. They gave Illinois a really good battle

1229
01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:12,200
Speaker 7: on the road the other day, and.

1230
01:02:12,160 --> 01:02:15,320
Speaker 2: So whether we play Wake Forest or Texas.

1231
01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:17,280
Speaker 7: Tech in the second game going to get a challenge

1232
01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:17,760
Speaker 7: either way.

1233
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:20,320
Speaker 1: Do the guys in the team call you Bobby Buckets

1234
01:02:20,520 --> 01:02:22,479
Speaker 1: or have you aged out of that as it now

1235
01:02:22,720 --> 01:02:25,640
Speaker 1: Bobby or mister Riddell when they have a conversation with you.

1236
01:02:27,880 --> 01:02:29,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't want to be hearing this ordella.

1237
01:02:30,040 --> 01:02:32,840
Speaker 7: The means that definitely would make me feel too old.

1238
01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:37,520
Speaker 7: I definitely get the Bobby Buckets still from some of

1239
01:02:37,520 --> 01:02:39,720
Speaker 7: the guys on the trip right now and then, so

1240
01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:42,480
Speaker 7: the nickname has lived.

1241
01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:46,000
Speaker 2: On a little bit, which is fun. I've always enjoyed that.

1242
01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:48,800
Speaker 2: So yeah, I get you know, Bobby.

1243
01:02:48,480 --> 01:02:53,960
Speaker 7: Buckets, you know all sorts of things around that on

1244
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:55,160
Speaker 7: the road, so it's always fun.

1245

Speaker 1: our day where we talked more Calviach football. We talked

1268
01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:16,960
Speaker 1: Monaan Bell Classic. We talked Indiana and Wisconsin to more basketball.

1269
01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:22,040
Speaker 1: We'll change that to some degree with our next couple

1278
01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:55,360
Speaker 1: joins at two o'clock, we'll talk a variety of things.

1279
01:04:56,400 --> 01:04:59,720
Speaker 1: I'm sure I'll bring up the Pacers in some form. Frankly,

1280
01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:03,040
Speaker 1: have been reluctant to do so the last couple of days,

1281
01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:07,919
Speaker 1: just because the product has been so bad. It has been.

1282
01:05:09,080 --> 01:05:15,320
Speaker 1: It's it's explainable, it's understandable. It doesn't exactly make it

1283
01:05:15,600 --> 01:05:20,400
Speaker 1: enjoyable or palpitable at this point. And like I said,

1284
01:05:21,720 --> 01:05:24,760
Speaker 1: because they are I said this yesterday, because the Pacers

1285
01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:27,040
Speaker 1: are not necessarily on my beat. I don't feel like

1286
01:05:27,080 --> 01:05:29,480
Speaker 1: I have to watch every game. I kind of keep

1287
01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:32,400
Speaker 1: track of scores, you know, I follow things on a

1288
01:05:32,440 --> 01:05:36,360
Speaker 1: regular basis. Obviously, last year in the playoffs, things were

1289
01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:39,160
Speaker 1: so good. I'm just going everybody else I am locked in,

1290
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:41,680
Speaker 1: I'm a fan, I'm tweeting, I'm watching, et cetera. Again,

1291
01:05:41,840 --> 01:05:43,240
Speaker 1: I didn't do it being that doesn't do it have

1292
01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:46,400
Speaker 1: anything having a job that has just being a fan

1293
01:05:47,240 --> 01:05:49,560
Speaker 1: during the course of the regular season, and I've got

1294
01:05:49,600 --> 01:05:53,280
Speaker 1: so many various different things going on. Maybe I'm not

1295
01:05:53,320 --> 01:05:58,160
Speaker 1: watching every game, but last night I'm like, all right,

1296
01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:00,520
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about this on the show, right, I

1297
01:06:00,560 --> 01:06:03,720
Speaker 1: had better discuss this at some point in time, And

1298
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:07,120
Speaker 1: after watching last night's game, I'm like, no, no, let's

1299
01:06:07,120 --> 01:06:09,920
Speaker 1: try to avoid that as best we can. Almost avoiding

1300
01:06:09,960 --> 01:06:12,640
Speaker 1: it because I can talk about other things, like, in

1301
01:06:12,680 --> 01:06:14,840
Speaker 1: other words, would you rather me talk about the Pacers

1302
01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:17,880
Speaker 1: being one and eleven and not being close to beating

1303
01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:22,160
Speaker 1: anybody on their Western road trip when you know the

1304
01:06:22,240 --> 01:06:25,360
Speaker 1: reason behind it. And I don't think it's getting any

1305
01:06:25,360 --> 01:06:27,320
Speaker 1: better anytime soon. In fact, it got worse as the

1306
01:06:27,360 --> 01:06:30,200
Speaker 1: trip went along, and it got worse last night because

1307
01:06:30,200 --> 01:06:34,840
Speaker 1: another guy got hurt in Aaron Nee Smith. Sometimes, man,

1308
01:06:34,880 --> 01:06:39,160
Speaker 1: it is just not your year. So I can talk

1309
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:42,040
Speaker 1: about that or I can talk about the Cults are

1310
01:06:42,080 --> 01:06:44,120
Speaker 1: really good at eight and two, even on a bye

1311
01:06:44,560 --> 01:06:47,000
Speaker 1: we talking about the Colts being eight and two. Or

1312
01:06:47,040 --> 01:06:51,760
Speaker 1: I can talk about the Indiana Hoosiers, which are suddenly

1313
01:06:51,760 --> 01:06:55,880
Speaker 1: the second best from a ranking standpoint team in college football.

1314
01:06:56,200 --> 01:06:57,840
Speaker 1: There were years you like, man, I just hope we're

1315
01:06:57,840 --> 01:07:00,440
Speaker 1: the second best team in Indiana, and a lot of

1316
01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:03,320
Speaker 1: years that was in the case. Oftentimes it was fourth,

1317
01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:05,480
Speaker 1: and there are four Division one teams in the state.

1318
01:07:06,880 --> 01:07:09,160
Speaker 1: But now they're the second best team in the nation,

1319
01:07:09,480 --> 01:07:12,320
Speaker 1: and that might be one spot too low. You'd want

1320
01:07:12,360 --> 01:07:15,120
Speaker 1: to talk about that. Or we can talk about, you know,

1321
01:07:15,400 --> 01:07:17,560
Speaker 1: one of the greatest small college football games it's played

1322
01:07:17,640 --> 01:07:21,200
Speaker 1: every year in our nation, that takes place tomorrow in Crawfordsville.

1323
01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:23,760
Speaker 1: Or I can do what we have done for a

1324
01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:27,560
Speaker 1: good chunk of this show and talk about the team

1325
01:07:27,600 --> 01:07:29,360
Speaker 1: that might be the number one team of the nation

1326
01:07:29,480 --> 01:07:33,120
Speaker 1: in college basketball Curly rd a number two in terms

1327
01:07:33,160 --> 01:07:37,280
Speaker 1: of Purdue. And I think it was Kevin that phrased

1328
01:07:37,320 --> 01:07:39,720
Speaker 1: it to me this way on the Morning Show when

1329
01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:43,560
Speaker 1: I made an appearance with those guys a couple of

1330
01:07:43,600 --> 01:07:47,280
Speaker 1: weeks ago, and it was phrased to me, Hey, which

1331
01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:50,320
Speaker 1: of these things is more likely to happen? Is it

1332
01:07:50,440 --> 01:07:53,680
Speaker 1: Indiana in the Big Ten Championship game? Is it the

1333
01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:59,280
Speaker 1: Colts in the AFC Championship Game? Is it Purdue in

1334
01:07:59,320 --> 01:08:03,240
Speaker 1: the Final Four? All taking place at Lucas Oil Stadium,

1335
01:08:03,440 --> 01:08:06,720
Speaker 1: and all taking place in the span of four months.

1336
01:08:08,320 --> 01:08:13,320
Speaker 1: And folks just take a moment to appreciate that it's possible,

1337
01:08:13,600 --> 01:08:20,000
Speaker 1: possible that all of those things could happen. All of

1338
01:08:20,040 --> 01:08:23,120
Speaker 1: those things can happen. And so me be mooring a

1339
01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:24,840
Speaker 1: more of a glass half full than it is half

1340
01:08:24,880 --> 01:08:28,160
Speaker 1: empty type of person. Well, frankly, I have decided, you

1341
01:08:28,160 --> 01:08:32,120
Speaker 1: know what, let's talk about those good things. The bad thing.

1342
01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:36,000
Speaker 1: It's nobody's fault there, Okay, it's Myles Turner's fault. Then

1343
01:08:36,040 --> 01:08:40,280
Speaker 1: it's a bad thing, all right, it's not just his fault.

1344
01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:43,479
Speaker 1: And I'm only mad at Miles for how he has

1345
01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:46,040
Speaker 1: handled it since then you want to go take more money,

1346
01:08:46,040 --> 01:08:49,200
Speaker 1: that's guaranteed, God bless you. I get that it's not

1347
01:08:49,280 --> 01:08:51,000
Speaker 1: just his fault, but why the pastry are so bad

1348
01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:53,920
Speaker 1: plays a part of it. But I'm almost like, hey,

1349
01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:55,960
Speaker 1: let's just kind of put that to the side for now.

1350
01:08:57,040 --> 01:08:59,240
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the good things, because the good things

1351
01:09:00,400 --> 01:09:04,000
Speaker 1: are pretty stinking good right now. If you're an Indiana

Speaker 8: popular that show.

1373
01:09:55,760 --> 01:09:57,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was. It was kind of like, uh, you know,

1374
01:09:57,760 --> 01:09:59,479
Speaker 1: Koy and Vance to the Bow. And Luke. You know

1375
01:09:59,560 --> 01:10:02,880
Speaker 1: sometimes that the combination, you know, just isn't there as much.

1376
01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:07,519
Speaker 1: All Right, my guess on your game tonight is is

1377
01:10:07,720 --> 01:10:11,320
Speaker 1: Decatur Central Brownsburg? I guess correctly, you did?

1378
01:10:11,520 --> 01:10:11,840
Speaker 2: You did?

1379
01:10:11,880 --> 01:10:14,120
Speaker 8: That's where I'll be at Decatur tonight. If I can

1380
01:10:14,160 --> 01:10:16,280
Speaker 8: get in, that'll be the Uh. I know, it's a

1381
01:10:16,720 --> 01:10:18,559
Speaker 8: it's a tough ticket, tough ticket tonight.

1382
01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:22,040
Speaker 1: In defense of the folks to Cater Central, who I

1383
01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:25,360
Speaker 1: hold in very high regard, there was actually a limit

1384
01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:27,519
Speaker 1: I think on the number of tickets that Brownsburg could have,

1385
01:10:27,920 --> 01:10:31,200
Speaker 1: but that that limit was twelve fifty. I think the

1386
01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:34,720
Speaker 1: Decatur Central visiting side seat seven fifty, So I think

1387
01:10:34,760 --> 01:10:36,320
Speaker 1: twelve fifty is a fair number.

1388
01:10:37,360 --> 01:10:39,400
Speaker 8: It is. Yeah, And to be honest with you, I

1389
01:10:39,439 --> 01:10:41,920
Speaker 8: know that was a story going around. So I did,

1390
01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:44,960
Speaker 8: you know, talk to Justin Dixon over there Decatur and

1391
01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:47,760
Speaker 8: you know part of this as you know, I mean,

1392
01:10:47,760 --> 01:10:50,800
Speaker 8: Decatur's a five A school, you know, so it's not

1393
01:10:50,920 --> 01:10:53,400
Speaker 8: a it's not typically they don't. They're not hosting six

1394
01:10:53,439 --> 01:10:56,479
Speaker 8: A games because they're not a six A school. So uh,

1395
01:10:56,640 --> 01:10:58,880
Speaker 8: you know, they're they're doing what they can to, uh,

1396
01:10:59,200 --> 01:11:02,519
Speaker 8: you know, to to raise the capacity, which is twelve

1397
01:11:02,560 --> 01:11:05,320
Speaker 8: fifty for the visitors side, and and you know, I

1398
01:11:05,360 --> 01:11:07,800
Speaker 8: think that's just kind of the way it is. I mean,

1399
01:11:07,840 --> 01:11:09,880
Speaker 8: they're hosting this game. You're not gonna you know, I

1400
01:11:09,920 --> 01:11:11,479
Speaker 8: know some people were like, well, why don't they give

1401
01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:12,800
Speaker 8: up this? They're not going to give up a home

1402
01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:15,760
Speaker 8: game at this point in the tournament. That would be ridiculous.

1403
01:11:15,800 --> 01:11:18,080
Speaker 8: So so yeah, it's just gonna be It's gonna be

1404
01:11:18,080 --> 01:11:19,960
Speaker 8: a great crowd. I mean, it's gonna be a great environment.

1405
01:11:20,120 --> 01:11:23,680
Speaker 8: And you know, there's there's a lot of interesting storylines

1406
01:11:23,680 --> 01:11:26,680
Speaker 8: obviously with both teams winning state last year, and I

1407
01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:29,240
Speaker 8: haven't seen It's been a a little wile since I've

1408
01:11:29,240 --> 01:11:32,120
Speaker 8: seen either team, So looking forward to covering that game tonight.

1409
01:11:32,200 --> 01:11:35,160
Speaker 1: My general thought has been DC will be competitive, but

1410
01:11:35,200 --> 01:11:37,640
Speaker 1: Brownsburg should win that game. Kind of same line of

1411
01:11:37,680 --> 01:11:38,280
Speaker 1: thinking from you.

1412
01:11:39,479 --> 01:11:41,600
Speaker 8: Yeah, I think so. I think the biggest question, you know,

1413
01:11:41,640 --> 01:11:44,320
Speaker 8: Brownsburg to me, you know, they the way they run

1414
01:11:44,360 --> 01:11:46,360
Speaker 8: the ball, it's going to be I think the biggest

1415
01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:50,000
Speaker 8: tough the toughest thing. I would say, as good as

1416
01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:52,479
Speaker 8: they are in all areas, you know, the way they've

1417
01:11:52,479 --> 01:11:54,640
Speaker 8: been running the ball lately, I think that's going to

1418
01:11:54,720 --> 01:11:57,720
Speaker 8: be the biggest test for Decator's defense. And you know,

1419
01:11:58,000 --> 01:12:00,040
Speaker 8: in high school football and every level football, if you

1420
01:12:00,040 --> 01:12:03,639
Speaker 8: can run the ball, everything else kind of follows in line,

1421
01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:06,960
Speaker 8: you know, in my in my experience. So you know,

1422
01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:09,320
Speaker 8: I think that'll be kind of the question and Decator

1423
01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:12,200
Speaker 8: will we'll you know, do some things offensively to make

1424
01:12:12,240 --> 01:12:14,679
Speaker 8: it tough for Brownsburg. But but that's to me where

1425
01:12:14,680 --> 01:12:17,000
Speaker 8: the biggest uh you know, question mark will be. And

1426
01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:19,920
Speaker 8: I think that's where Brownsburg ultimately wins the game tonight.

1427
01:12:20,120 --> 01:12:23,200
Speaker 1: All right, of the upsets last week, which was the

1428
01:12:23,240 --> 01:12:25,320
Speaker 1: one that you thought was the biggest or caught your

1429
01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:26,280
Speaker 1: most off guard.

1430
01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:29,160
Speaker 8: Well, I mean just the nature of the and I

1431
01:12:29,160 --> 01:12:31,759
Speaker 8: don't know the huge upset, but the way Westfield one

1432
01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:33,840
Speaker 8: at the end of the game. And you know, I

1433
01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:36,519
Speaker 8: know we've talked before, you know, kind of thought Carmel

1434
01:12:36,600 --> 01:12:38,599
Speaker 8: might be the team to beat in the north side

1435
01:12:38,640 --> 01:12:41,000
Speaker 8: of the bracket, if not the whole state. The way

1436
01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:44,000
Speaker 8: they've been playing, you know, I kind of Carmel Brownsburg

1437
01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:46,960
Speaker 8: was going to be the game we'd see down the road.

1438
01:12:47,120 --> 01:12:49,560
Speaker 8: So you know, again, you don't you don't think of

1439
01:12:49,640 --> 01:12:52,280
Speaker 8: Westfield as a team that's upsetting people because of what

1440
01:12:52,320 --> 01:12:55,320
Speaker 8: they've done the last several years, you know, Josh Miracle

1441
01:12:55,360 --> 01:12:58,960
Speaker 8: and Jake Gilbert there. But but that one was definitely

1442
01:12:59,080 --> 01:13:01,280
Speaker 8: a score that early on caught my eye and then

1443
01:13:01,439 --> 01:13:03,240
Speaker 8: you know, the way that they want it was just

1444
01:13:03,880 --> 01:13:07,080
Speaker 8: you know, incredible. So you know, I would say that

1445
01:13:07,200 --> 01:13:10,960
Speaker 8: maybe was the biggest eyebrow raiser of the bunch, you know.

1446
01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:13,759
Speaker 8: But you know, the way the way Roun Collie beat Shatar,

1447
01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:16,280
Speaker 8: you know, that was also a game that you know,

1448
01:13:16,320 --> 01:13:19,519
Speaker 8: I consider maybe a minor upset based on the way

1449
01:13:19,560 --> 01:13:21,439
Speaker 8: the season went and the fact that Shittard beat him

1450
01:13:21,439 --> 01:13:23,719
Speaker 8: early in the year. But again, you don't you don't

1451
01:13:23,920 --> 01:13:26,479
Speaker 8: really call Ron Colly in Westfield the huge up set

1452
01:13:26,920 --> 01:13:30,439
Speaker 8: type of teams either, So you know, so but those

1453
01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:33,280
Speaker 8: two games I think we're definitely ones that that probably

1454
01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:34,440
Speaker 8: caught my eye the most.

1455
01:13:34,720 --> 01:13:38,000
Speaker 1: Again, you have turned into a state wide beat at

1456
01:13:38,000 --> 01:13:41,360
Speaker 1: this point in time, obviously primarily schools in central Indiana.

1457
01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:44,760
Speaker 1: I bring this up as the transition into Miles McLoughlin.

1458
01:13:45,200 --> 01:13:47,880
Speaker 1: What has been like the request for information, the amount

1459
01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:51,960
Speaker 1: of traffic when you have commented on Miles written about him,

1460
01:13:52,000 --> 01:13:55,360
Speaker 1: et cetera. What has been the level of interstate wide

1461
01:13:55,400 --> 01:13:57,839
Speaker 1: in telling his story huge.

1462
01:13:58,479 --> 01:14:00,680
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean it's and I'm a prize, to be

1463
01:14:00,680 --> 01:14:02,719
Speaker 8: honest with you, I didn't realize, you know, I wanted

1464
01:14:02,760 --> 01:14:04,960
Speaker 8: to go up there probably about mid season and do

1465
01:14:05,080 --> 01:14:07,760
Speaker 8: a story on him and did that, and you know,

1466
01:14:07,840 --> 01:14:10,800
Speaker 8: the the numbers were really crazy on that. Even even

1467
01:14:10,840 --> 01:14:14,240
Speaker 8: that was pretty well before he'd got the Charlie Spiegel's record.

1468
01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:16,880
Speaker 8: So but he was in line, and I thought, you know,

1469
01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:19,320
Speaker 8: had a chance to get there. Wanted to actually just

1470
01:14:19,360 --> 01:14:21,240
Speaker 8: see him for myself and go. I went to a

1471
01:14:21,280 --> 01:14:24,200
Speaker 8: practice and Russ Radke let me kind of you know,

1472
01:14:24,400 --> 01:14:27,200
Speaker 8: stand in the huddle basically and watch him do practice.

1473
01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:30,320
Speaker 8: And you know, it was fun. I enjoyed kind of

1474
01:14:30,400 --> 01:14:34,599
Speaker 8: learning about him and and in Russ and his offense

1475
01:14:34,640 --> 01:14:37,160
Speaker 8: and the way everything works. But in the meantime and

1476
01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:40,880
Speaker 8: then the time since then, the interest level, the national

1477
01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:44,720
Speaker 8: interest has really gotten really taken off just because of

1478
01:14:44,760 --> 01:14:47,200
Speaker 8: his you know the fact that he's chasing Derrick Henry.

1479
01:14:47,680 --> 01:14:49,519
Speaker 8: You know, he's got a chance tonight to break the

1480
01:14:49,760 --> 01:14:53,240
Speaker 8: single season national rushing record, which is which is incredible.

1481
01:14:54,280 --> 01:14:56,280
Speaker 8: You know, so it'd be really cool if they made

1482
01:14:56,320 --> 01:14:59,320
Speaker 8: it here to the state finals and that record was

1483
01:14:59,320 --> 01:15:02,680
Speaker 8: on the line. That would just add another story to

1484
01:15:03,160 --> 01:15:06,200
Speaker 8: you know, a busy week, but but would be would

1485
01:15:06,240 --> 01:15:08,400
Speaker 8: be pretty awesome, you know, and I think that is

1486
01:15:08,720 --> 01:15:11,240
Speaker 8: on the table possibly, But you know, as you get

1487
01:15:11,240 --> 01:15:14,960
Speaker 8: in the tournament, obviously did the the opponents get tougher

1488
01:15:15,200 --> 01:15:18,599
Speaker 8: and you know, Angola and whoever wins next week's game

1489
01:15:18,640 --> 01:15:22,680
Speaker 8: could be Lures or Mississiniwa will will be difficult teams.

1490
01:15:22,320 --> 01:15:24,040
Speaker 5: To you know, do this again.

1491
01:15:24,240 --> 01:15:26,479
Speaker 8: So but I thought that throughout. I was like, man,

1492
01:15:26,520 --> 01:15:27,560
Speaker 8: I don't know if he's going to be able to

1493
01:15:27,600 --> 01:15:29,760
Speaker 8: keep doing this. He just keeps and he does, so

1494
01:15:29,800 --> 01:15:33,120
Speaker 8: it's it's it's pretty crazy. But uh but yeah, from

1495
01:15:33,120 --> 01:15:36,479
Speaker 8: a statewide perspective, it's really even even more of a

1496
01:15:36,560 --> 01:15:39,720
Speaker 8: national perspective, it's really kind of taken off to a

1497
01:15:39,800 --> 01:15:41,240
Speaker 8: level I didn't really anticipate.

1498
01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:44,679
Speaker 1: Does it come down to he and Jet Goldsbury of Hamilton,

1499
01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:48,679
Speaker 1: I'm sorry of of of heritage chills for the Mister

1500
01:15:48,720 --> 01:15:52,000
Speaker 1: Football Award? Is it pretty much Miles at this point

1501
01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:55,559
Speaker 1: or is there somebody or other somebodies I'm leaving out

1502
01:15:55,600 --> 01:15:56,400
Speaker 1: of this discussion.

1503
01:15:57,760 --> 01:16:00,920
Speaker 8: Well, I thought going into the season that that Jeded

1504
01:16:00,960 --> 01:16:04,320
Speaker 8: Goldsberry would be the guy to beat because you know,

1505
01:16:04,320 --> 01:16:06,000
Speaker 8: if you go back in history, a lot of times

1506
01:16:06,040 --> 01:16:09,240
Speaker 8: it's it's people who win, uh the state championship as

1507
01:16:09,240 --> 01:16:12,160
Speaker 8: a junior, and then they kind of have a advantage

1508
01:16:12,280 --> 01:16:14,519
Speaker 8: just because you know, people know who they are. You know,

1509
01:16:14,600 --> 01:16:17,840
Speaker 8: he won a state title. He's the quarterback of the team.

1510
01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:20,720
Speaker 8: You know, so I would I kind of went into

1511
01:16:20,760 --> 01:16:22,720
Speaker 8: the season thing it was sort of his to uh

1512
01:16:22,960 --> 01:16:25,519
Speaker 8: to win and and then you know everybody else kind

1513
01:16:25,520 --> 01:16:27,760
Speaker 8: of is trying to chase him. But you know, with

1514
01:16:27,840 --> 01:16:30,519
Speaker 8: what Miles has done here these last uh you know,

1515
01:16:31,080 --> 01:16:33,800
Speaker 8: basically his whole season and really his career numbers, you know,

1516
01:16:33,880 --> 01:16:36,400
Speaker 8: he's I think put himself in position. You know, if

1517
01:16:36,439 --> 01:16:39,120
Speaker 8: he wins a national rushing record, you know, you know,

1518
01:16:39,160 --> 01:16:41,240
Speaker 8: it'd be hard to not have him as be mister football,

1519
01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:43,560
Speaker 8: I would think. So You're you're sort of at a

1520
01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:47,000
Speaker 8: point where it's like, I don't you know, but I

1521
01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:50,040
Speaker 8: know how the voting goes sometimes, and you know it's it's, uh,

1522
01:16:50,120 --> 01:16:52,280
Speaker 8: you'll have a lot of people voting for Jet and

1523
01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:55,600
Speaker 8: you'll have you'll have some six A people too. I

1524
01:16:55,600 --> 01:17:00,200
Speaker 8: think Kashmir Hicks will get some get some votes know

1525
01:17:00,360 --> 01:17:03,000
Speaker 8: from Decatur Central because he also want to stay title

1526
01:17:03,080 --> 01:17:05,720
Speaker 8: last year, his numbers are really good, probably not quite

1527
01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:08,880
Speaker 8: as good this year for for a few reasons. You know,

1528
01:17:08,920 --> 01:17:11,240
Speaker 8: they had some injuries, and you know they're they're playing

1529
01:17:11,280 --> 01:17:13,320
Speaker 8: six A. It's a little bit tougher. And I think

1530
01:17:13,400 --> 01:17:15,920
Speaker 8: Jacob Davis from newpal will we'll get some too, and

1531
01:17:15,960 --> 01:17:19,160
Speaker 8: I think they'll win state. But but yeah, I don't

1532
01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:21,160
Speaker 8: it's gonna be hard. I think those two, to me,

1533
01:17:21,320 --> 01:17:24,080
Speaker 8: are are sort of the the ones you're looking at

1534
01:17:24,200 --> 01:17:25,960
Speaker 8: right now. And then there's a lot of other really

1535
01:17:25,960 --> 01:17:29,240
Speaker 8: good players too, but maybe don't have the the name

1536
01:17:29,439 --> 01:17:33,120
Speaker 8: recognition or the overall resume. But but yeah, I mean

1537
01:17:33,160 --> 01:17:35,679
Speaker 8: Miles is gonna have a great resume. Jet is too.

1538
01:17:35,720 --> 01:17:38,360
Speaker 8: I mean he's still doing it this year, and you

1539
01:17:38,360 --> 01:17:40,640
Speaker 8: know they have a chance to to keep advancing as

1540
01:17:40,680 --> 01:17:44,120
Speaker 8: well in a higher class. So yeah, it's gonna be

1541
01:17:44,439 --> 01:17:46,360
Speaker 8: It's gonna be a more interesting race, maybe than I

1542
01:17:46,360 --> 01:17:47,800
Speaker 8: thought it was going in again.

1543
01:17:47,920 --> 01:17:50,839
Speaker 1: Kyle Nenrip of the Indianapolis Star joining us on the

1544
01:17:50,960 --> 01:17:54,160
Speaker 1: Java House Peel and poor guest line, I'm sorry I

1545
01:17:54,160 --> 01:17:57,679
Speaker 1: won't see this Friday nights as I have Warren Central

1546
01:17:57,720 --> 01:18:00,280
Speaker 1: and Center Grove. My guess is I'll probably see you

1547
01:18:00,360 --> 01:18:02,800
Speaker 1: next Friday night typically the way that these things work out.

1548
01:18:02,800 --> 01:18:03,679
Speaker 1: And joy game, buddy.

1549
01:18:04,640 --> 01:18:06,120
Speaker 8: All right, thanks, Greg, appreciate you.

1550
01:18:06,080 --> 01:18:08,800
Speaker 1: Got a Kyle nenrip of the Indianapolis Star. Let's get

1551
01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:12,519
Speaker 1: to Bob's telephone call. Try to get to Todd's telephone call.

1552
01:18:12,560 --> 01:18:14,240
Speaker 1: This segment is well, don't want Bob to be on hold.

1553
01:18:14,280 --> 01:18:16,559
Speaker 1: You all along, Bob, thanks for dialing us up. What

1554
01:18:16,560 --> 01:18:17,720
Speaker 1: do you have for us?

1555
01:18:18,240 --> 01:18:22,200
Speaker 9: Yeah, Ray, thanks for taking my call with your expertise

1556
01:18:22,360 --> 01:18:26,920
Speaker 9: knowledge of high school sports, especially football. I am a

1557
01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:32,799
Speaker 9: long ago graduate from Southmont. They will be playing Adrian tonight,

1558
01:18:33,720 --> 01:18:38,360
Speaker 9: and kind of explain to me with your expertise. You know,

1559
01:18:38,560 --> 01:18:42,519
Speaker 9: south Mont has always had they haven't had a home

1560
01:18:42,560 --> 01:18:46,360
Speaker 9: playoff game. They're always on the road. They're eleven, they're

1561
01:18:46,400 --> 01:18:49,439
Speaker 9: eleven and one and can't get a home game.

1562
01:18:51,280 --> 01:18:54,080
Speaker 1: I would assume that it's just kind of the the

1563
01:18:54,200 --> 01:18:58,360
Speaker 1: luck of the draw or the lack thereof. In other words,

1564
01:18:58,400 --> 01:19:00,439
Speaker 1: if I forget whether it's top or by half of

1565
01:19:00,439 --> 01:19:05,040
Speaker 1: the bracket, then it's odd numbered sectional versus even sectional. Basically,

1566
01:19:05,080 --> 01:19:07,880
Speaker 1: the way the tie breakers are set up, Bob, it

1567
01:19:08,080 --> 01:19:12,880
Speaker 1: is if, for example, if it goes to a tiebreaker,

1568
01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:14,760
Speaker 1: it means that both teams were on the road or

1569
01:19:14,760 --> 01:19:17,200
Speaker 1: both teams were at home last week, and then they

1570
01:19:17,280 --> 01:19:19,240
Speaker 1: go all right. If that's not the case, then it's

1571
01:19:19,400 --> 01:19:22,479
Speaker 1: depending on your classification, the higher number sectional or the

1572
01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:26,120
Speaker 1: lower number sectional. Same thing for the semi state. There

1573
01:19:26,160 --> 01:19:28,280
Speaker 1: is supposed to be kind of a clause in there

1574
01:19:28,760 --> 01:19:31,680
Speaker 1: where like if you have not hosted the sectional or

1575
01:19:31,720 --> 01:19:34,719
Speaker 1: the regional, you get to be the semi state host.

1576
01:19:35,160 --> 01:19:38,439
Speaker 1: But so much of that is simply luck of the

1577
01:19:38,560 --> 01:19:42,479
Speaker 1: draw because things aren't seeded. So I knew South Mount

1578
01:19:42,560 --> 01:19:45,479
Speaker 1: was playing and Andrean as the opponent. Give me time

1579
01:19:45,560 --> 01:19:49,760
Speaker 1: during the break to kind of look up Southmont's schedule

1580
01:19:50,040 --> 01:19:52,760
Speaker 1: and their draw, and I'll walk you through exactly why

1581
01:19:52,800 --> 01:19:54,599
Speaker 1: that's the case. Sound good, perf?

1582
01:19:54,800 --> 01:19:58,720
Speaker 9: Yeah, perfect, because last week they played Lewis cass and

1583
01:19:58,840 --> 01:20:02,160
Speaker 9: Louis cast Is eight three. They were ten and one

1584
01:20:02,320 --> 01:20:04,879
Speaker 9: going into that game and they had to travel.

1585
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:07,280
Speaker 1: Well again, has nothing to do because of no seating

1586
01:20:07,600 --> 01:20:09,360
Speaker 1: and anything to do with your record. It is all

1587
01:20:09,400 --> 01:20:12,360
Speaker 1: about where you kind of slot in in terms of

1588
01:20:12,400 --> 01:20:14,200
Speaker 1: how you were drawn onto the board. Bob, thanks for

1589
01:20:14,200 --> 01:20:16,800
Speaker 1: the telephone call. I appreciate it. I'll give an answer

1590
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:19,000
Speaker 1: to your question. I promise you in the next segment

1591
01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:21,200
Speaker 1: of the show, let me stick in Todd's telephone call

1592
01:20:21,280 --> 01:20:24,240
Speaker 1: real quick, Hello Todd, Hey.

1593
01:20:24,080 --> 01:20:27,599
Speaker 10: Greg, I know you're on time here, rapid fires. So

1594
01:20:27,880 --> 01:20:31,000
Speaker 10: just three three things real quick here. First of all,

1595
01:20:31,920 --> 01:20:34,959
Speaker 10: I believe the five day state championship game was probably

1596
01:20:34,960 --> 01:20:38,080
Speaker 10: played the last Friday. I don't know who's going to

1597
01:20:38,160 --> 01:20:41,919
Speaker 10: beat the Dragons, but I would like your thoughts on that. Secondly,

1598
01:20:42,400 --> 01:20:45,800
Speaker 10: clarity on Forrest Buckner on the I R. Is it

1599
01:20:45,920 --> 01:20:46,920
Speaker 10: four weeks.

1600
01:20:46,600 --> 01:20:49,240
Speaker 1: Or four games? Four games?

1601
01:20:49,280 --> 01:20:49,559
Speaker 2: Okay?

1602
01:20:49,560 --> 01:20:49,880
Speaker 7: All right?

1603
01:20:50,360 --> 01:20:52,400
Speaker 10: And I don't care if us longer. We need him

1604
01:20:52,400 --> 01:20:55,640
Speaker 10: for the playoffs for sure, So but it so the

1605
01:20:55,680 --> 01:20:58,640
Speaker 10: bye week isn't to your advantage there necessarily.

1606
01:20:58,240 --> 01:21:00,759
Speaker 1: Correct, No, he has to miss the new three games

1607
01:21:00,800 --> 01:21:03,400
Speaker 1: as soon as he could come back as the Seattle

1608
01:21:03,479 --> 01:21:06,760
Speaker 1: game December the fourteenth.

1609
01:21:05,640 --> 01:21:08,200
Speaker 10: Roger, okay, and then the last one. You know, I

1610
01:21:08,240 --> 01:21:11,519
Speaker 10: know IU basketball team is not ranked in it, and

1611
01:21:11,560 --> 01:21:14,000
Speaker 10: I'm fine with that. In fact, I think this probably

1612
01:21:14,800 --> 01:21:17,680
Speaker 10: I think it keeps them a little edgier sure, not

1613
01:21:18,400 --> 01:21:21,400
Speaker 10: being ranked. I think I think, you know, sometimes you

1614
01:21:21,880 --> 01:21:24,320
Speaker 10: eat up the rankings a little bit too much, and

1615
01:21:24,360 --> 01:21:26,839
Speaker 10: all of a sudden they slip into seventeen or eighteen,

1616
01:21:26,880 --> 01:21:29,360
Speaker 10: and they think they're they think they're a big deal.

1617
01:21:29,800 --> 01:21:33,559
Speaker 10: I like them being unranked. Same with the football team

1618
01:21:33,600 --> 01:21:36,679
Speaker 10: who started the year ranked somewhere around nineteenth or twenty first,

1619
01:21:36,720 --> 01:21:40,679
Speaker 10: I believe. And all they've done is do their job

1620
01:21:40,720 --> 01:21:44,720
Speaker 10: each week and lo and behold, look what happens. So yeah,

1621
01:21:44,840 --> 01:21:46,960
Speaker 10: just they're just any comments you have on what I

1622
01:21:47,200 --> 01:21:49,680
Speaker 10: mentioned the Yeah, you got it.

1623
01:21:50,040 --> 01:21:54,559
Speaker 1: Thanks thanks for Colin, thanks for listening. On the Newpal team. Yeah,

1624
01:21:54,600 --> 01:21:57,040
Speaker 1: I think they're the favorites in five A. Yes, I

1625
01:21:57,040 --> 01:22:00,439
Speaker 1: think Cathedrals are toughest opponent. Newpal got the toughest possible

1626
01:22:00,479 --> 01:22:03,400
Speaker 1: draw they could. They will likely play a ranked foe

1627
01:22:04,000 --> 01:22:06,519
Speaker 1: all five weeks of the tournament, assuming they make it

1628
01:22:06,520 --> 01:22:09,800
Speaker 1: to Lucas Oil and win through. Because playfield I think

1629
01:22:09,880 --> 01:22:12,880
Speaker 1: was tenth, the Cathedral was right behind them. East Central's

1630
01:22:12,920 --> 01:22:16,719
Speaker 1: really good. Then you're looking at Bloomington South or Floyd Central,

1631
01:22:16,720 --> 01:22:21,320
Speaker 1: who are also both ranked coming out of the North again. Lafayette, Jeff,

1632
01:22:21,920 --> 01:22:23,760
Speaker 1: I think Merrillville is still going to Daffy has just

1633
01:22:23,840 --> 01:22:25,800
Speaker 1: got to go to Concord. They got to play tough

1634
01:22:25,840 --> 01:22:27,679
Speaker 1: teams all the way to there. There's no easy weeks

1635
01:22:27,680 --> 01:22:30,120
Speaker 1: for them. I think New Pal is the best team.

1636
01:22:30,640 --> 01:22:33,599
Speaker 1: East Central may be the closest thing to them in

1637
01:22:33,680 --> 01:22:35,760
Speaker 1: terms of how they play, and they got to go

1638
01:22:35,800 --> 01:22:37,880
Speaker 1: to Saint Leons, so tonight will not be easy for Newpal,

1639
01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:39,360
Speaker 1: but I expect them to win. I expect them to

1640
01:22:39,360 --> 01:22:44,040
Speaker 1: win the whole thing. On the Indiana front, the ranking

1641
01:22:44,080 --> 01:22:47,240
Speaker 1: will take care of itself. And again, given the schedule

1642
01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:52,519
Speaker 1: that Indiana plays, they keep playing like this, they're going

1643
01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:55,280
Speaker 1: to be ranked. Playing Incarnate word will not help them

1644
01:22:55,280 --> 01:22:58,320
Speaker 1: in their next game. But again, they play enough quality

1645
01:22:58,320 --> 01:23:01,280
Speaker 1: competition and Big ten plays start so early these days,

1646
01:23:01,720 --> 01:23:04,160
Speaker 1: the ranking side of things will take care of itself.

1647
01:23:04,280 --> 01:23:07,320
Speaker 1: I got to answer Bob's Southmont question. I didn't think

1648
01:23:07,360 --> 01:23:09,880
Speaker 1: i'd get a Southmont Mounty's question on the program today,

1649
01:23:10,080 --> 01:23:13,360
Speaker 1: but I did. And because Nathangela and I went to

1650
01:23:13,360 --> 01:23:15,439
Speaker 1: the University of Indianapolis, we believe in the motto of

1651
01:23:15,600 --> 01:23:18,840
Speaker 1: education for service. It's what we're here to do. So

1652
01:23:18,880 --> 01:23:20,719
Speaker 1: I'll talk about that when we come back on ninety

1653
01:23:20,760 --> 01:23:22,080
Speaker 1: three to five and one oh seven to five of

1654
01:23:22,120 --> 01:23:22,400
Speaker 1: the Fan.

1655
01:23:22,600 --> 01:23:25,920
Speaker 4: This is Querry in Company on ninety three five and

1656
01:23:25,960 --> 01:23:27,559
Speaker 4: one oh seven five the Fan.

1657
01:23:27,960 --> 01:23:29,760
Speaker 1: You know, when I do these shows, especially this time,

1658
01:23:29,840 --> 01:23:32,479
Speaker 1: here when things are so busy, we tend to load

1659
01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:34,360
Speaker 1: up on great guests. It makes it easier and the

1660
01:23:34,360 --> 01:23:37,599
Speaker 1: guy that doesn't do this anymore on a full time basis.

1661
01:23:39,360 --> 01:23:41,120
Speaker 1: So there's alway these open segments that we we're gonna

1662
01:23:41,120 --> 01:23:43,400
Speaker 1: talk about. I did not plan on talking about the

1663
01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:46,120
Speaker 1: postseason path of the Southmont Mountings, but here we are

1664
01:23:46,720 --> 01:23:51,640
Speaker 1: because Bob asked and I promised to deliver. So he

1665
01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:54,760
Speaker 1: asked about his Mounties, who are eleven and one and

1666
01:23:54,800 --> 01:23:56,920
Speaker 1: are now who are on the road for a third

1667
01:23:57,080 --> 01:24:01,120
Speaker 1: consecutive week in the state tournament. Here's how this happens.

1668
01:24:01,600 --> 01:24:04,160
Speaker 1: The Mountains are in two A Sectional thirty four. They

1669
01:24:04,160 --> 01:24:07,320
Speaker 1: were driving home the first week they beat the Delphi Oracles.

1670
01:24:07,680 --> 01:24:12,880
Speaker 1: The next game that Southmont played was against Nathaniel Finch's

1671
01:24:13,160 --> 01:24:17,600
Speaker 1: Western Boone Stars. Western Boone was also at home in

1672
01:24:17,760 --> 01:24:20,960
Speaker 1: round number one, so since both teams had the same

1673
01:24:21,080 --> 01:24:25,240
Speaker 1: number of home games, the team that was quote the

1674
01:24:25,320 --> 01:24:29,760
Speaker 1: bottom team on the bracket or the lower team in

1675
01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:32,880
Speaker 1: the bracket, they were the second name team to Southmont.

1676
01:24:33,560 --> 01:24:37,160
Speaker 1: They got the home game. Now, Southmont was undeterred by

1677
01:24:37,200 --> 01:24:41,680
Speaker 1: having to go play at Western Boone High School on Halloween.

1678
01:24:42,680 --> 01:24:45,000
Speaker 1: The carriage turned back into a pumpkin for the Stars.

1679
01:24:45,439 --> 01:24:49,960
Speaker 1: Southmont beat Webo thirty three to eleven, so they ended

1680
01:24:50,040 --> 01:24:55,280
Speaker 1: up playing Lewis Cass in the sectional championship game. Lewis

1681
01:24:55,360 --> 01:25:00,240
Speaker 1: Cass was on the road in week number one. They

1682
01:25:00,280 --> 01:25:03,800
Speaker 1: were then at home in week number two, which meant

1683
01:25:03,800 --> 01:25:07,719
Speaker 1: that both teams had had the same number of home

1684
01:25:07,760 --> 01:25:11,639
Speaker 1: games in the tournament. Again, Lewis Cass was the last

1685
01:25:11,720 --> 01:25:14,640
Speaker 1: named team on the bracket, hence they had the tiebreaker,

1686
01:25:15,120 --> 01:25:18,439
Speaker 1: and so south Mont is on the road. The Mounties

1687
01:25:19,160 --> 01:25:23,479
Speaker 1: took their offense with them to Galveston Walton. All the

1688
01:25:23,520 --> 01:25:26,599
Speaker 1: Bergs that make up Lewis Cass High School didn't take

1689
01:25:26,640 --> 01:25:29,160
Speaker 1: their defense, but they took enough offense they beat the

1690
01:25:29,240 --> 01:25:31,479
Speaker 1: Kings by a score of forty four to thirty nine.

1691
01:25:31,680 --> 01:25:38,839
Speaker 1: So now south Mont will face Andreian in the regional

1692
01:25:38,920 --> 01:25:43,960
Speaker 1: championship game. And to determine the tiebreak procedures in a

1693
01:25:44,080 --> 01:25:48,120
Speaker 1: regional the idea is is that if a team did

1694
01:25:48,120 --> 01:25:50,920
Speaker 1: not host their sectional final, well they get to host

1695
01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:56,200
Speaker 1: the regional. But apparently the Fighting fifty nine Ers also

1696
01:25:56,280 --> 01:25:59,360
Speaker 1: were on the road to win their sectional championship game.

1697
01:25:59,600 --> 01:26:03,320
Speaker 1: In fact, I can confirm that Andrean had not had

1698
01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:05,880
Speaker 1: a home game yet in the tournament because they played

1699
01:26:05,920 --> 01:26:08,320
Speaker 1: at Wheeler and at Renzuller Central and the Fighting fifty

1700
01:26:08,400 --> 01:26:11,400
Speaker 1: nine Ers won them both. So since both teams were

1701
01:26:11,400 --> 01:26:13,880
Speaker 1: on the road for their sectional championship, what is the

1702
01:26:13,960 --> 01:26:18,960
Speaker 1: tiebreaker the odd sexual number gets to host. Let's go

1703
01:26:19,040 --> 01:26:22,479
Speaker 1: back to the sectional draw. Sectional thirty three is where

1704
01:26:22,600 --> 01:26:27,280
Speaker 1: Andrayan is from Southmont, Sectional thirty four, and that is

1705
01:26:27,320 --> 01:26:33,280
Speaker 1: how the Southmont Mounties were on the road three consecutive weeks. Bybe,

1706
01:26:33,360 --> 01:26:37,160
Speaker 1: I hope that makes sense. IHSAA dot org has all

1707
01:26:37,200 --> 01:26:40,479
Speaker 1: of that explanation for you. Good luck to your mounties.

1708
01:26:41,040 --> 01:26:44,400
Speaker 1: And again I haven't done the computer math just yet,

1709
01:26:44,720 --> 01:26:47,120
Speaker 1: but my guess would be I could look at Carol Side.

1710
01:26:47,120 --> 01:26:49,479
Speaker 1: He would tell me immediately because he does that stuff,

1711
01:26:49,479 --> 01:26:51,200
Speaker 1: which is why he's beloved by all of us that

1712
01:26:51,240 --> 01:26:54,640
Speaker 1: work in this business. If Southmont gets past Andrean, I

1713
01:26:54,680 --> 01:26:57,280
Speaker 1: would imagine they would be at home. In fact, I

1714
01:26:57,320 --> 01:26:59,160
Speaker 1: think I remember seeing that they would be at home

1715
01:26:59,400 --> 01:27:01,479
Speaker 1: next week. Good luck to your mounties as you make

1716
01:27:01,520 --> 01:27:03,519
Speaker 1: your way. And by the way, I have this address

1717
01:27:03,520 --> 01:27:07,440
Speaker 1: committed to memory, fifty nine to fifty nine Broadway in Meryllville.

1718
01:27:07,560 --> 01:27:10,479
Speaker 1: If you're going to night's game to watch Southmont take

1719
01:27:10,520 --> 01:27:15,200
Speaker 1: on said fighting fifty nine ers with that, that's how

1720
01:27:15,200 --> 01:27:17,120
Speaker 1: you fill a segment with no guest. We'll take a

1721
01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:19,600
Speaker 1: quick time out. Kevin Bowen will join us next on

1722
01:27:19,720 --> 01:27:21,280
Speaker 1: ninety three to five and one oh seven five.

1723
01:27:21,360 --> 01:27:24,400
Speaker 4: The Fan Face is Querry in Company on ninety three

1724
01:27:24,479 --> 01:27:26,000
Speaker 4: five and one oh seven five.

1725
01:27:26,080 --> 01:27:29,760
Speaker 1: The Fan, You know, you might want to get the

1726
01:27:29,840 --> 01:27:33,760
Speaker 1: dump button ready because the man we're getting ready to

1727
01:27:33,840 --> 01:27:37,960
Speaker 1: have on is on team no sleep right now. Then

1728
01:27:38,000 --> 01:27:39,960
Speaker 1: once you get to three, you know, it's it's kind

1729
01:27:40,000 --> 01:27:42,519
Speaker 1: of routine, like the way you freak out about child

1730
01:27:42,640 --> 01:27:45,439
Speaker 1: number one and then like we're fine for child number

1731
01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:48,920
Speaker 1: two on down is different, but you have less of

1732
01:27:48,920 --> 01:27:52,040
Speaker 1: a filter when you have less sleep. So hopefully Kevin

1733
01:27:52,080 --> 01:27:54,920
Speaker 1: Bowen can refrain from swearing after hearing that song as

1734
01:27:54,960 --> 01:27:57,040
Speaker 1: his lead in here on ninety three to five and

1735
01:27:57,040 --> 01:27:59,080
Speaker 1: one oh seven five The Fan, What are you doing

1736
01:27:59,120 --> 01:28:00,000
Speaker 1: back at work this week?

1737
01:28:00,080 --> 01:28:06,520
Speaker 11: By the way, Well, I, you know, we don't get paternally,

1738
01:28:06,680 --> 01:28:09,479
Speaker 11: so it's just all kind of PTO, and I certainly

1739
01:28:09,520 --> 01:28:13,719
Speaker 11: took some other PTO earlier in the year, so I figured,

1740
01:28:13,760 --> 01:28:16,160
Speaker 11: you know, last Friday she was born, so obviously it

1741
01:28:16,200 --> 01:28:18,439
Speaker 11: didn't work that day, and you know, three days this week,

1742
01:28:18,479 --> 01:28:20,320
Speaker 11: and if you're only working two days, right, you know,

1743
01:28:20,520 --> 01:28:23,439
Speaker 11: for you, that is absolutely nothing. So I felt like

1744
01:28:23,560 --> 01:28:25,960
Speaker 11: it's the least I could do. And you know you

1745
01:28:25,960 --> 01:28:28,160
Speaker 11: and I both typically are out there at the Colts

1746
01:28:28,880 --> 01:28:30,760
Speaker 11: after the show. So the fact that I didn't have

1747
01:28:30,760 --> 01:28:32,680
Speaker 11: to go out there either day, Thursday or Friday, it

1748
01:28:32,720 --> 01:28:33,240
Speaker 11: was very nice.

1749
01:28:33,240 --> 01:28:34,240
Speaker 5: So worked out well for me.

1750
01:28:35,000 --> 01:28:37,760
Speaker 1: You're Kevin freaking Bowen, you right for the website and

1751
01:28:37,800 --> 01:28:39,760
Speaker 1: you're on Morning Drive. You think they're going to ding

1752
01:28:39,840 --> 01:28:42,760
Speaker 1: you for taking too many days off? The Urban One

1753
01:28:42,800 --> 01:28:47,040
Speaker 1: offices will drop the hammer on one of Indianapolis's most

1754
01:28:47,080 --> 01:28:51,679
Speaker 1: popular sports personalities with luxurious air courtesy of your radio deal.

1755
01:28:52,840 --> 01:28:54,680
Speaker 11: Thank you, Thank you to wee girl here Andy for that.

1756
01:28:55,680 --> 01:28:58,679
Speaker 11: You know, yes, you know I believe you have said

1757
01:28:58,760 --> 01:29:00,759
Speaker 11: November and May maybe your busiest.

1758
01:29:00,760 --> 01:29:01,080
Speaker 2: Correct.

1759
01:29:01,439 --> 01:29:04,200
Speaker 11: Yes, I can't speak to me, you know, maybe one

1760
01:29:04,280 --> 01:29:06,600
Speaker 11: day for me, but you know how it is. I mean,

1761
01:29:06,680 --> 01:29:09,600
Speaker 11: it's just different this time of year, so June and

1762
01:29:09,680 --> 01:29:11,759
Speaker 11: July I probably would have stretched it a little bit further.

1763
01:29:11,840 --> 01:29:14,800
Speaker 11: But very supportive wife. And to your point, you know,

1764
01:29:14,800 --> 01:29:17,479
Speaker 11: when you have a third and the oldest two are

1765
01:29:17,479 --> 01:29:20,439
Speaker 11: both in school Monday through Friday. It's a little bit

1766
01:29:20,479 --> 01:29:24,120
Speaker 11: easier in terms of the the daily grind at nighttime.

1767
01:29:24,200 --> 01:29:24,400
Speaker 2: Though.

1768
01:29:24,560 --> 01:29:27,759
Speaker 11: Boy, I didn't think I'd be driving a baby around

1769
01:29:27,760 --> 01:29:29,800
Speaker 11: Butler's camp at two forty five in the morning, But

1770
01:29:30,080 --> 01:29:31,840
Speaker 11: there I was the other night, trying to get her

1771
01:29:31,880 --> 01:29:34,760
Speaker 11: back to sleep. So start the engine, head over to

1772
01:29:34,800 --> 01:29:36,640
Speaker 11: Hinkle and see if there's any cars left in the

1773
01:29:36,680 --> 01:29:38,160
Speaker 11: parking lot after they beat Chicago State.

1774
01:29:38,240 --> 01:29:41,600
Speaker 1: The way the team Restra handled this was that I

1775
01:29:41,720 --> 01:29:44,639
Speaker 1: took the late shift. In other words, like I would

1776
01:29:44,680 --> 01:29:48,000
Speaker 1: stay up until like two or three and then and

1777
01:29:48,040 --> 01:29:50,799
Speaker 1: I would I would basically kick Amy to the bedroom

1778
01:29:50,840 --> 01:29:54,599
Speaker 1: and say, Nate, next six hours, don't come out here. Okay,

1779
01:29:54,920 --> 01:29:57,080
Speaker 1: you've you've stored up enough. We can take care of

1780
01:29:57,080 --> 01:30:00,000
Speaker 1: the feeding stuff. I got this. This is your guarantee

1781
01:30:00,120 --> 01:30:03,280
Speaker 1: sleep time. Then mill of the night, I'll get four

1782
01:30:03,360 --> 01:30:05,360
Speaker 1: or five hours of sleep before I actually have to,

1783
01:30:05,600 --> 01:30:07,719
Speaker 1: you know, go to my job. Is that the same

1784
01:30:07,800 --> 01:30:10,560
Speaker 1: thing that Team Bowen is handling her? Or does it?

1785
01:30:10,760 --> 01:30:10,880
Speaker 2: Does?

1786
01:30:10,960 --> 01:30:13,320
Speaker 1: Do times vary in the Bowen household?

1787
01:30:14,080 --> 01:30:17,320
Speaker 11: Yeah, we're kind of on the same plan there. You know,

1788
01:30:17,320 --> 01:30:19,400
Speaker 11: this is the first baby really fall baby for me,

1789
01:30:19,479 --> 01:30:21,920
Speaker 11: or like basketball season, baby, which is nice. Like last night,

1790
01:30:21,960 --> 01:30:25,360
Speaker 11: for example, I said, hey, you know, all take Nelly

1791
01:30:25,560 --> 01:30:28,640
Speaker 11: during the Pacer game throughout, and you know that was

1792
01:30:28,680 --> 01:30:31,719
Speaker 11: what eleven o'clock I think is when luckily Fan Duel

1793
01:30:32,040 --> 01:30:33,519
Speaker 11: crapped out on all of us. I think there for

1794
01:30:33,520 --> 01:30:35,720
Speaker 11: a few minutes so I could go to bed, and

1795
01:30:35,760 --> 01:30:37,479
Speaker 11: then she kind of passed her back off to me

1796
01:30:37,600 --> 01:30:40,479
Speaker 11: like at five. So like, you know, for the most part,

1797
01:30:40,520 --> 01:30:43,680
Speaker 11: you know, she unfortunately is the one feeding Nelly for

1798
01:30:43,680 --> 01:30:46,840
Speaker 11: a couple hours, so you know, I could handle you know,

1799
01:30:46,880 --> 01:30:48,760
Speaker 11: she can go to bed at whatever eight fifteen after

1800
01:30:48,800 --> 01:30:50,360
Speaker 11: that feed, and then I could kind of handle it

1801
01:30:50,439 --> 01:30:52,559
Speaker 11: until about eleven o'clock and wake her back up for

1802
01:30:52,560 --> 01:30:55,400
Speaker 11: the feed and then morning time, you know, just start

1803
01:30:55,439 --> 01:30:57,839
Speaker 11: my morning routine a little bit earlier and bring Nelly.

1804
01:30:57,640 --> 01:30:58,400
Speaker 5: Downstairs with me.

1805
01:30:58,520 --> 01:31:01,479
Speaker 11: So again, some of these late night basketball games, you

1806
01:31:01,600 --> 01:31:04,040
Speaker 11: gotta like dread the you know, I you at the

1807
01:31:04,080 --> 01:31:07,000
Speaker 11: barn at nine o'clock on a Tuesday, I'm like, oh man.

1808
01:31:07,120 --> 01:31:07,840
Speaker 5: You gotta watch it.

1809
01:31:07,880 --> 01:31:09,920
Speaker 11: Of course, you got to talk about it the next morning.

1810
01:31:09,960 --> 01:31:12,040
Speaker 11: But you know, when you're in a baby season, you

1811
01:31:12,080 --> 01:31:13,800
Speaker 11: don't mind it as much because you can kind of

1812
01:31:14,080 --> 01:31:16,040
Speaker 11: you know two birds of one stone, if you will.

1813
01:31:16,160 --> 01:31:18,360
Speaker 1: I also know how talk show host work. When you

1814
01:31:18,360 --> 01:31:20,519
Speaker 1: do this daily and then you're gone for like four

1815
01:31:20,560 --> 01:31:22,720
Speaker 1: or five days, all you have all you like, you're

1816
01:31:22,760 --> 01:31:24,920
Speaker 1: trying to remember all the things you thought about that

1817
01:31:24,960 --> 01:31:27,479
Speaker 1: would be good to say on the radio when you

1818
01:31:27,800 --> 01:31:30,360
Speaker 1: didn't have the chance to say those things on the radio.

1819
01:31:30,800 --> 01:31:34,640
Speaker 1: So when you're not here Friday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, what

1820
01:31:34,720 --> 01:31:37,280
Speaker 1: were the things you were dying to say or talk

1821
01:31:37,360 --> 01:31:40,040
Speaker 1: about When you got back on the air on Thursday morning,

1822
01:31:40,920 --> 01:31:41,400
Speaker 1: I know I.

1823
01:31:41,360 --> 01:31:43,080
Speaker 11: Kind of felt like the kids late to the party.

1824
01:31:43,120 --> 01:31:45,400
Speaker 1: I was like, Hey, I have to talk about I

1825
01:31:45,439 --> 01:31:47,120
Speaker 1: got this take Hang on a second, Yeah, I get it.

1826
01:31:47,160 --> 01:31:48,040
Speaker 5: Yeah right?

1827
01:31:48,080 --> 01:31:50,040
Speaker 11: Can I talk about Omar Cooper juniter? Can I talk

1828
01:31:50,040 --> 01:31:52,559
Speaker 11: about Jonathan Taylor? Can I go back to Jeremiah loves

1829
01:31:52,640 --> 01:31:54,680
Speaker 11: or on like all of that on Monday? You know,

1830
01:31:54,720 --> 01:31:58,400
Speaker 11: I guess colplies, you know, a super entertaining game, you know,

1831
01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:00,679
Speaker 11: I think of the urgency of that game and be lost.

1832
01:32:00,840 --> 01:32:03,000
Speaker 11: You know, if you were all of a sudden, you know,

1833
01:32:03,080 --> 01:32:05,120
Speaker 11: to lose that game going into your bye week and

1834
01:32:05,120 --> 01:32:07,240
Speaker 11: then you're at Kansas City out of the bye you

1835
01:32:07,280 --> 01:32:09,519
Speaker 11: watched New England win last night. You know, they would

1836
01:32:09,560 --> 01:32:12,040
Speaker 11: be a full game up in the standings on you

1837
01:32:12,040 --> 01:32:14,200
Speaker 11: in the one seed. You know, Jacksonville would be a

1838
01:32:14,200 --> 01:32:16,680
Speaker 11: little bit closer. I just think it's one of those

1839
01:32:16,680 --> 01:32:19,479
Speaker 11: games that you know, maybe there will obviously be bigger

1840
01:32:19,520 --> 01:32:21,599
Speaker 11: games in terms of opponent record the rest of the way,

1841
01:32:21,640 --> 01:32:23,400
Speaker 11: But I just thought it was a huge win in

1842
01:32:23,479 --> 01:32:26,720
Speaker 11: a game where you obviously had your several months wore.

1843
01:32:26,720 --> 01:32:28,400
Speaker 11: It looked like you weren't going to win that game.

1844
01:32:28,680 --> 01:32:31,680
Speaker 11: Taylor's heroics, just what more can you say about him?

1845
01:32:31,720 --> 01:32:33,880
Speaker 11: I mean, it's it's the closest thing to an MVP

1846
01:32:34,040 --> 01:32:36,439
Speaker 11: type of level you're going to get from a running back.

1847
01:32:36,479 --> 01:32:38,960
Speaker 11: You know, the Daniel Jones situation obviously is a little

1848
01:32:39,000 --> 01:32:41,120
Speaker 11: bit more on a Okay, where are we at with

1849
01:32:41,240 --> 01:32:45,120
Speaker 11: him exiting the bye week? And then you know, I

1850
01:32:45,400 --> 01:32:47,200
Speaker 11: would say just to the Forest Buckner injuries is probably

1851
01:32:47,240 --> 01:32:49,479
Speaker 11: the other thing Colts related of you know, he is

1852
01:32:49,600 --> 01:32:52,000
Speaker 11: such a key and greed. I shared this earlier today

1853
01:32:52,000 --> 01:32:53,920
Speaker 11: on the show, but I was speaking with the coach

1854
01:32:54,840 --> 01:32:57,200
Speaker 11: the Colts faced a few weeks back, and you know,

1855
01:32:57,400 --> 01:32:59,360
Speaker 11: I was like, hey, just general thoughts, what do you

1856
01:32:59,360 --> 01:33:00,920
Speaker 11: think about the cults and the first thing he said

1857
01:33:00,960 --> 01:33:03,479
Speaker 11: to me was ninety nine makes it all go. And

1858
01:33:03,920 --> 01:33:05,640
Speaker 11: I just think it's kind of the praise that I

1859
01:33:05,640 --> 01:33:07,719
Speaker 11: think we know, but just to hear that from around

1860
01:33:07,800 --> 01:33:10,679
Speaker 11: the league of what he means to the defense, it's

1861
01:33:10,680 --> 01:33:12,360
Speaker 11: obviously going to be a big loss for however long

1862
01:33:12,400 --> 01:33:12,840
Speaker 11: he's out.

1863
01:33:13,240 --> 01:33:16,120
Speaker 1: How does the defense now that Sauce Gardner is here,

1864
01:33:16,560 --> 01:33:18,600
Speaker 1: and again you're trying to compensate for not having to

1865
01:33:18,640 --> 01:33:21,599
Speaker 1: Forrest Buckner at least until mid December. How to how

1866
01:33:21,640 --> 01:33:26,000
Speaker 1: the Colts play defense looks differently against the Chiefs versus

1867
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:29,000
Speaker 1: what it was against the Falcons, because you basically had

1868
01:33:29,040 --> 01:33:31,880
Speaker 1: forty eight hours in a flight to teach Sauce a

1869
01:33:31,960 --> 01:33:34,759
Speaker 1: new playbook. Now that you've got the gift of time

1870
01:33:34,800 --> 01:33:38,280
Speaker 1: for two weeks, what can leu Anarumo and group do differently?

1871
01:33:39,560 --> 01:33:41,599
Speaker 11: Well, I throw in Rake. You know where is Shaveri's

1872
01:33:41,640 --> 01:33:44,160
Speaker 11: Ward's status as well? Of course you know, I think

1873
01:33:44,160 --> 01:33:46,559
Speaker 11: if he can get back in the lineup after the

1874
01:33:46,640 --> 01:33:49,599
Speaker 11: buye which he is eligible to return from IR, now

1875
01:33:49,680 --> 01:33:52,280
Speaker 11: you just sleep better at night versus how you've treated

1876
01:33:52,280 --> 01:33:54,599
Speaker 11: the other cornerback position. One thing I didn't really understand

1877
01:33:54,600 --> 01:33:57,200
Speaker 11: in that Atlanta games, they played Makai Blackman a lot

1878
01:33:57,240 --> 01:33:59,720
Speaker 11: more than Jalen Jones. I would have I thought Jones

1879
01:33:59,720 --> 01:34:01,519
Speaker 11: said job in the Pittsburgh game. I would like to

1880
01:34:01,560 --> 01:34:03,840
Speaker 11: have seen more from him. You know, Blackman had a

1881
01:34:03,880 --> 01:34:06,640
Speaker 11: couple of moments there that you didn't love, you know,

1882
01:34:06,680 --> 01:34:10,400
Speaker 11: I think a healthy ward and then Gardner, now you

1883
01:34:10,439 --> 01:34:13,479
Speaker 11: can give I think ample attention to your pass rush,

1884
01:34:13,600 --> 01:34:16,000
Speaker 11: and you know, for the most part in Rumo is

1885
01:34:16,040 --> 01:34:19,280
Speaker 11: pretty willing to do that anyways. You know, maybe there's

1886
01:34:19,280 --> 01:34:21,200
Speaker 11: some moments he's a little hesitant, but you know, Cam

1887
01:34:21,200 --> 01:34:23,760
Speaker 11: buying them. Blitzing from a deep free safety spot is

1888
01:34:23,760 --> 01:34:25,519
Speaker 11: not something every team in the league would be comfortable,

1889
01:34:25,520 --> 01:34:27,200
Speaker 11: if not a lot of teams would be comfortable with it,

1890
01:34:27,280 --> 01:34:30,000
Speaker 11: given the Colts cornerback situation. But early in the game,

1891
01:34:30,120 --> 01:34:31,760
Speaker 11: the cults are dialing that up and it turned to

1892
01:34:31,800 --> 01:34:33,120
Speaker 11: be a huge turned out to be a huge play

1893
01:34:33,160 --> 01:34:36,360
Speaker 11: in the game. You or Franklin's blitzed there in overtime

1894
01:34:36,439 --> 01:34:38,760
Speaker 11: as well. So I just think more of that. A.

1895
01:34:39,280 --> 01:34:41,920
Speaker 11: You need it, I think without Buckner, and again B,

1896
01:34:42,560 --> 01:34:44,880
Speaker 11: you should feel a little bit more comfortable with it

1897
01:34:44,920 --> 01:34:46,680
Speaker 11: if you look at whiteouts the rest of the way.

1898
01:34:46,680 --> 01:34:48,360
Speaker 11: I mean you're going to face some very good white

1899
01:34:48,360 --> 01:34:51,160
Speaker 11: outs here down the stretch. So I think it comes

1900
01:34:51,240 --> 01:34:52,599
Speaker 11: uh at the right time as well.

1901
01:34:52,920 --> 01:34:55,360
Speaker 1: And maybe concern isn't the right word, but I'll say

1902
01:34:55,360 --> 01:34:58,040
Speaker 1: it anyway. Level of concern what we've seen from Daniel

1903
01:34:58,080 --> 01:34:59,080
Speaker 1: Jones the last two weeks.

1904
01:35:01,160 --> 01:35:04,240
Speaker 11: Yeah, it's it's proba of the hardest question I've kind of,

1905
01:35:04,360 --> 01:35:06,000
Speaker 11: you know, gone back and forth with all week long

1906
01:35:06,040 --> 01:35:10,000
Speaker 11: break because you know, through the first seven or eight games,

1907
01:35:10,520 --> 01:35:13,000
Speaker 11: he was defying the back of his own baseball card,

1908
01:35:13,720 --> 01:35:16,400
Speaker 11: and now he's kind of gotten back to the New

1909
01:35:16,479 --> 01:35:18,720
Speaker 11: York side of the baseball card. So like where we're here,

1910
01:35:18,800 --> 01:35:22,000
Speaker 11: are we is is the India? Because the Indie sample

1911
01:35:22,000 --> 01:35:23,719
Speaker 11: size is bigger than the last two weeks. Of course,

1912
01:35:24,080 --> 01:35:26,720
Speaker 11: you know, are we back to New York or will

1913
01:35:26,760 --> 01:35:30,200
Speaker 11: those first two months be the prevailing theme here when

1914
01:35:30,240 --> 01:35:31,639
Speaker 11: they get back from the bike week. Has the rest

1915
01:35:31,640 --> 01:35:33,400
Speaker 11: of the NFL kind of caught up to a little

1916
01:35:33,400 --> 01:35:33,760
Speaker 11: bit of it?

1917
01:35:34,560 --> 01:35:34,720
Speaker 1: You know?

1918
01:35:34,760 --> 01:35:36,879
Speaker 11: These are all questions I have. And again, the offensive

1919
01:35:36,880 --> 01:35:40,160
Speaker 11: line situation, they continue to be really healthy, which you know,

1920
01:35:40,400 --> 01:35:44,040
Speaker 11: at some point the shoot typically drops with that position

1921
01:35:44,120 --> 01:35:47,040
Speaker 11: group and you deal with some sort of uh, you know,

1922
01:35:47,120 --> 01:35:49,320
Speaker 11: banged up nature at this point. You know, last year

1923
01:35:49,360 --> 01:35:51,320
Speaker 11: you had had Wilf Fries already broke his leg, you know,

1924
01:35:51,400 --> 01:35:53,040
Speaker 11: Ryan Kelly had been dealing with some stuff, and then

1925
01:35:53,080 --> 01:35:55,960
Speaker 11: you had unfortunately Braden Smith, you know, going away from

1926
01:35:55,960 --> 01:35:57,799
Speaker 11: the team for the final month and half of the season.

1927
01:35:57,920 --> 01:36:00,439
Speaker 11: So you know, all of that, I think are questions

1928
01:36:00,439 --> 01:36:03,120
Speaker 11: that you have there with Jones. You know, the one

1929
01:36:03,160 --> 01:36:04,920
Speaker 11: thing he was doing so well the first two months

1930
01:36:04,920 --> 01:36:06,800
Speaker 11: of the season, which again was kind of anti what

1931
01:36:06,840 --> 01:36:09,680
Speaker 11: he did in New York, was when pressure was in

1932
01:36:09,760 --> 01:36:13,720
Speaker 11: his face, he was feasting. And now you know the

1933
01:36:13,760 --> 01:36:15,200
Speaker 11: old adage and I know I said this a lot,

1934
01:36:15,280 --> 01:36:17,120
Speaker 11: but I think it's such a great quote from Peyton

1935
01:36:17,120 --> 01:36:20,719
Speaker 11: Manning about quarterback play is you know, when you identify

1936
01:36:20,760 --> 01:36:23,800
Speaker 11: a bad play, make sure it's not an even worse play.

1937
01:36:24,080 --> 01:36:24,720
Speaker 2: And right now, with.

1938
01:36:24,760 --> 01:36:27,439
Speaker 11: Daniel Jones, some of those bad plays have been, you know,

1939
01:36:27,479 --> 01:36:30,920
Speaker 11: borderline catastrophic. Now, having said that, you know, going back

1940
01:36:30,920 --> 01:36:33,400
Speaker 11: to Atlanta game, the scramble on third and twenty one,

1941
01:36:34,439 --> 01:36:36,360
Speaker 11: the throws to Tyler Warren on fourth and two, and

1942
01:36:36,360 --> 01:36:38,960
Speaker 11: then the one in overtime, and those are big time

1943
01:36:39,040 --> 01:36:41,680
Speaker 11: players in a big time moment. So I don't think

1944
01:36:41,720 --> 01:36:42,800
Speaker 11: you can lose sight of that either.

1945
01:36:43,320 --> 01:36:47,800
Speaker 1: How much NFL football are you consuming on Sunday and

1946
01:36:48,560 --> 01:36:52,280
Speaker 1: what games are really on your radar comes.

1947
01:36:52,000 --> 01:36:56,400
Speaker 11: Sunday, Well, you know my fantom for Notre Dame basketball.

1948
01:36:56,439 --> 01:36:58,360
Speaker 11: We've got a big one here at noon, Notre Dame

1949
01:36:58,439 --> 01:37:01,320
Speaker 11: at Ohio State here coming up on Sunday. Shout out

1950
01:37:01,400 --> 01:37:03,800
Speaker 11: to coach Owens, coach Shrewsbury and company. It's been a

1951
01:37:03,840 --> 01:37:06,439
Speaker 11: very nice start to the season, so very much looking

1952
01:37:06,479 --> 01:37:10,400
Speaker 11: forward to that. You know, I'm not used to experiencing

1953
01:37:10,439 --> 01:37:15,799
Speaker 11: the one o'clock NFL window, but I was on Sunday.

1954
01:37:15,880 --> 01:37:18,479
Speaker 11: Oh my gosh, it's it can get electric there going

1955
01:37:18,520 --> 01:37:21,160
Speaker 11: back and forth, poblem through those finishes in the one

1956
01:37:21,160 --> 01:37:24,200
Speaker 11: o'clock window. And Rake, this is a great slate for

1957
01:37:24,280 --> 01:37:26,840
Speaker 11: Colts by week, like, you've got some really good games.

1958
01:37:26,840 --> 01:37:29,800
Speaker 11: I think Buccaneers Bills is a really good game.

1959
01:37:30,080 --> 01:37:30,280
Speaker 1: You know.

1960
01:37:30,320 --> 01:37:32,080
Speaker 11: Eagles Lions, I know, is one that a lot of

1961
01:37:32,080 --> 01:37:34,360
Speaker 11: people talk about. I believe that's Sunday night football. You

1962
01:37:34,400 --> 01:37:36,719
Speaker 11: get a look at your opponent next week with Chiefs

1963
01:37:36,720 --> 01:37:39,360
Speaker 11: at Broncos at a huge game for Kansas City in

1964
01:37:39,439 --> 01:37:42,600
Speaker 11: that one, and then Seahawks Rams is another four o'clocker.

1965
01:37:42,920 --> 01:37:45,479
Speaker 11: That's a really good game. So yeah, I mean last

1966
01:37:45,520 --> 01:37:48,080
Speaker 11: night was a dud, of course, but and Monday night

1967
01:37:48,160 --> 01:37:50,120
Speaker 11: really intrigued me. I want to say it's Cowboys Raiders.

1968
01:37:50,120 --> 01:37:52,920
Speaker 11: But outside of that, you've got some really really good

1969
01:37:52,920 --> 01:37:55,439
Speaker 11: games one o'clock, four o'clock and then Sunday night football

1970
01:37:55,439 --> 01:37:55,760
Speaker 11: as well.

1971
01:37:55,840 --> 01:37:58,400
Speaker 1: All right, since you brought it up, and since mom

1972
01:37:58,439 --> 01:38:02,519
Speaker 1: and baby are doing well. January twenty seventh, UVA and

1973
01:38:02,600 --> 01:38:04,400
Speaker 1: South bend back and play for you at this point?

1974
01:38:05,160 --> 01:38:09,200
Speaker 2: Oh, I like that? Yeah? What what?

1975
01:38:09,200 --> 01:38:10,519
Speaker 11: What day of the week were we looking.

1976
01:38:10,360 --> 01:38:13,439
Speaker 1: At Tuesday night against the University of Virginia.

1977
01:38:14,240 --> 01:38:16,880
Speaker 11: Let's let's let's throw that in in pencil on the

1978
01:38:16,880 --> 01:38:18,760
Speaker 11: skill and I will clear that with the with the

1979
01:38:18,800 --> 01:38:20,640
Speaker 11: powers to be. But I like the sound of that.

1980
01:38:20,680 --> 01:38:22,800
Speaker 1: All right, take an extra shift or two. Uh, you

1981
01:38:22,840 --> 01:38:28,600
Speaker 1: should be fine. From a from a a Saturday viewing standpoint,

1982
01:38:28,840 --> 01:38:31,519
Speaker 1: who's your's at noon? Frankly, you can watch them both. Who's'

1983
01:38:31,520 --> 01:38:33,720
Speaker 1: is at noon? Pacers at seven? What are you looking

1984
01:38:33,800 --> 01:38:36,080
Speaker 1: forward to kind of checking on the dial come Saturday?

1985
01:38:37,200 --> 01:38:39,639
Speaker 11: Yeah, and you know, obviously I'll throw in my Irish

1986
01:38:39,640 --> 01:38:42,000
Speaker 11: and college game day there at noon? You know the

1987
01:38:42,040 --> 01:38:45,760
Speaker 11: thing about you, it's just wild how I think you

1988
01:38:45,800 --> 01:38:48,599
Speaker 11: can make the argument. And I don't know, maybe Vanderbilt

1989
01:38:48,640 --> 01:38:51,000
Speaker 11: would fall into the boat a little bit, but certainly

1990
01:38:51,000 --> 01:38:52,680
Speaker 11: from a Big Ten standpoint, Rake, I don't know if

1991
01:38:52,680 --> 01:38:54,679
Speaker 11: there's two programs that have gone into bigger one eighty

1992
01:38:54,680 --> 01:38:57,000
Speaker 11: in the last three years in Wisconsin and IU.

1993
01:38:57,400 --> 01:39:00,639
Speaker 5: I mean, you know, I remember being at.

1994
01:39:00,479 --> 01:39:05,200
Speaker 11: Indiana and they scored eighty three points right football on

1995
01:39:06,200 --> 01:39:10,320
Speaker 11: the Hoosiers, And like, if you told me Saturday that

1996
01:39:10,400 --> 01:39:12,880
Speaker 11: you know, eighty three obviously is a ridiculous number, but

1997
01:39:12,920 --> 01:39:15,000
Speaker 11: if you told me Indiana scored sixty three, I don't

1998
01:39:15,000 --> 01:39:18,040
Speaker 11: think I'd laugh at that today, given how Wisconsin is

1999
01:39:18,280 --> 01:39:20,120
Speaker 11: wis Compton won a football game last week and their

2000
01:39:20,160 --> 01:39:21,360
Speaker 11: leading passer was their punter.

2001
01:39:21,520 --> 01:39:21,760
Speaker 2: Yep.

2002
01:39:22,640 --> 01:39:26,040
Speaker 11: Like, it's just it's amazing, and they've felt a lot

2003
01:39:26,080 --> 01:39:28,920
Speaker 11: of injuries and everything. So the fact that I'm looking

2004
01:39:28,960 --> 01:39:33,280
Speaker 11: at Indiana's a thirty point favorite, it's just wild. So yeah,

2005
01:39:32,760 --> 01:39:35,880
Speaker 11: it's a get healthy game. It's get to the weird

2006
01:39:35,960 --> 01:39:40,040
Speaker 11: late season by and then the biggest tickets we'll probably

2007
01:39:40,080 --> 01:39:41,760
Speaker 11: see in the state of Indiana history for that Big

2008
01:39:41,800 --> 01:39:43,920
Speaker 11: Ten title game for Indiana and Ohio State.

2009
01:39:44,040 --> 01:39:47,479
Speaker 1: Do you know that Indiana is currently on a winning

2010
01:39:47,479 --> 01:39:49,360
Speaker 1: streak against the University of Wisconsin.

2011
01:39:51,320 --> 01:39:53,760
Speaker 11: Really, you know what, now, you say that didn't Tom

2012
01:39:53,800 --> 01:39:55,520
Speaker 11: Allen win up there during COVID.

2013
01:39:55,240 --> 01:39:57,920
Speaker 1: Season the COVID year, they won a very low scoring

2014
01:39:57,960 --> 01:39:59,960
Speaker 1: game fourteen to six. That was one of the many

2015
01:40:00,080 --> 01:40:02,839
Speaker 1: big wins that year, Penn State to start the season,

2016
01:40:02,920 --> 01:40:05,880
Speaker 1: Michigan during the course of the COVID season as well,

2017
01:40:06,320 --> 01:40:11,080
Speaker 1: and through the quirks of the Big Ten calendar. Now

2018
01:40:11,920 --> 01:40:13,920
Speaker 1: and it's you know, there was the divisional opponents, and

2019
01:40:13,960 --> 01:40:17,559
Speaker 1: now you've got the four teams out west. Indiana and

2020
01:40:17,640 --> 01:40:23,200
Speaker 1: Wisconsin have not played since twenty twenty three, and Indiana

2021
01:40:23,200 --> 01:40:25,879
Speaker 1: beat Wisconsin twenty to fourteen when they played in twenty

2022
01:40:25,960 --> 01:40:28,840
Speaker 1: twenty three. Indiana's on a two game winning streak against

2023
01:40:28,880 --> 01:40:29,720
Speaker 1: the Badgers.

2024
01:40:30,120 --> 01:40:32,519
Speaker 11: It's kind of the old adage. And I know, you know,

2025
01:40:32,520 --> 01:40:34,479
Speaker 11: we probably need a little bit more evidence than just

2026
01:40:34,560 --> 01:40:36,280
Speaker 11: a couple of years, rake, But you know, for a

2027
01:40:36,320 --> 01:40:39,080
Speaker 11: year several years there, there was a lot of complaining

2028
01:40:39,280 --> 01:40:41,000
Speaker 11: from teams that were in the East Division of the

2029
01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:43,920
Speaker 11: Big Ten versus the West Division of the Big Ten.

2030
01:40:44,320 --> 01:40:46,960
Speaker 11: And you know, again, you probably need a little bit

2031
01:40:46,960 --> 01:40:48,479
Speaker 11: more of a samplize, but some of that's starting to

2032
01:40:48,479 --> 01:40:51,960
Speaker 11: play out of those teams that feasted out in the West.

2033
01:40:52,479 --> 01:40:55,360
Speaker 11: It's a different animal now that you've grouped everybody together.

2034
01:40:55,520 --> 01:40:57,640
Speaker 11: And you know, Indiana just got the short end of

2035
01:40:57,640 --> 01:41:01,120
Speaker 11: the stick, frankly with how that's line was drawn. And

2036
01:41:01,200 --> 01:41:02,599
Speaker 11: you know, not to say that all of a sudden

2037
01:41:02,600 --> 01:41:04,800
Speaker 11: they would have, you know, whatever represented the West in

2038
01:41:04,840 --> 01:41:06,679
Speaker 11: the Big Ten title game, like Perdue did a couple

2039
01:41:06,680 --> 01:41:08,800
Speaker 11: of years back, but still a little bit more of

2040
01:41:08,800 --> 01:41:11,559
Speaker 11: a you know, level playing field. I get you can't

2041
01:41:11,800 --> 01:41:13,800
Speaker 11: get all the way there with so many teams in

2042
01:41:13,840 --> 01:41:15,960
Speaker 11: the Big Ten, but certainly the East versus West was

2043
01:41:16,080 --> 01:41:18,000
Speaker 11: quite the difference in how those teams are stacked.

2044
01:41:18,080 --> 01:41:19,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, by the way, there was a four year stretcher

2045
01:41:19,840 --> 01:41:22,200
Speaker 1: was eighty three, twenty fifty nine, seven, sixty two, fourteen,

2046
01:41:22,240 --> 01:41:24,720
Speaker 1: and fifty one to three. So yeah, I remember those

2047
01:41:24,840 --> 01:41:27,920
Speaker 1: days and the the the eighty three and the sixty

2048
01:41:28,000 --> 01:41:30,840
Speaker 1: two are the ones that truly kind of jump off

2049
01:41:30,880 --> 01:41:32,880
Speaker 1: the page at me, and I'll I'll tell the story

2050
01:41:32,920 --> 01:41:35,760
Speaker 1: about the sixty two to fourteen game coming up here

2051
01:41:36,040 --> 01:41:38,560
Speaker 1: in just a matter of moments. Do we need to

2052
01:41:38,600 --> 01:41:40,160
Speaker 1: talk pacers at this point or can we just kind

2053
01:41:40,160 --> 01:41:41,120
Speaker 1: of push them to the side.

2054
01:41:41,960 --> 01:41:43,800
Speaker 11: Well, I'll toss in one more in the eighty three.

2055
01:41:43,920 --> 01:41:46,160
Speaker 11: You're a box score nerd like me, if I'm not

2056
01:41:46,280 --> 01:41:48,439
Speaker 11: mistake break. I think at one point it was like

2057
01:41:48,600 --> 01:41:49,120
Speaker 11: seven to.

2058
01:41:49,000 --> 01:41:51,000
Speaker 1: Seven, right, and that sounds not right?

2059
01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:53,200
Speaker 11: And I want to say the scoring like didn't really

2060
01:41:53,240 --> 01:41:57,320
Speaker 11: get truly going until like early second quarter for Wisconsin,

2061
01:41:57,400 --> 01:41:59,639
Speaker 11: which is kind of crazy to look at. Yeah, Pacers,

2062
01:41:59,680 --> 01:42:02,360
Speaker 11: I just I mean, when Nee Smith went down last night,

2063
01:42:02,400 --> 01:42:04,600
Speaker 11: I had an audible gasp. And it wasn't because I

2064
01:42:04,640 --> 01:42:07,240
Speaker 11: was looking at Nellie's diaper. It was it just just

2065
01:42:07,320 --> 01:42:10,160
Speaker 11: quite the scene. And we'll see what severity is on it.

2066
01:42:10,160 --> 01:42:13,599
Speaker 11: You know, it sounded like Rick Carlisle avoided the very

2067
01:42:13,680 --> 01:42:15,639
Speaker 11: serious nature. I don't know if that's the three letter

2068
01:42:15,680 --> 01:42:17,880
Speaker 11: acronym they avoided. And you know he still can this

2069
01:42:18,479 --> 01:42:21,360
Speaker 11: substantial time. But you know, having said that, and I know,

2070
01:42:21,439 --> 01:42:24,960
Speaker 11: like Vegas lines aren't everything by any means, but if

2071
01:42:25,000 --> 01:42:27,200
Speaker 11: you look at you know what the expectation was going

2072
01:42:27,240 --> 01:42:29,679
Speaker 11: into each of these four Western Conference games, and again

2073
01:42:30,000 --> 01:42:31,679
Speaker 11: three of the four teams were on back to backs

2074
01:42:31,840 --> 01:42:34,200
Speaker 11: of who you just played out West, I mean, you

2075
01:42:34,320 --> 01:42:36,880
Speaker 11: got ran out of the gym. Like last night the

2076
01:42:36,920 --> 01:42:39,360
Speaker 11: Pacers were like a four point underdog and they lost

2077
01:42:39,400 --> 01:42:43,960
Speaker 11: by thirty and Utah they were favored and lost significantly.

2078
01:42:44,120 --> 01:42:46,600
Speaker 11: So again I know that's not gospel, but you know,

2079
01:42:46,680 --> 01:42:49,799
Speaker 11: to me, you look at the first six or seven games,

2080
01:42:49,800 --> 01:42:51,880
Speaker 11: like Giannis had hit a heroic shot to beat you,

2081
01:42:51,880 --> 01:42:54,439
Speaker 11: you know, the thunder, it was doublet. I know the

2082
01:42:54,479 --> 01:42:56,960
Speaker 11: Brooklyn game got for me, but you know they had

2083
01:42:57,000 --> 01:42:59,000
Speaker 11: some chances, a wide open three. I'm trying to think

2084
01:42:59,000 --> 01:43:02,280
Speaker 11: who it was Minnesota, and maybe that Neie Smith missed.

2085
01:43:02,320 --> 01:43:04,639
Speaker 11: You know, you were very competitive in some of these

2086
01:43:04,680 --> 01:43:08,240
Speaker 11: earlier games. So just a disappointing trip on obviously the

2087
01:43:08,240 --> 01:43:11,519
Speaker 11: health level with Neith Smith and then certainly the product

2088
01:43:11,560 --> 01:43:14,479
Speaker 11: on the floor. So yeah, it is a big time

2089
01:43:14,520 --> 01:43:17,479
Speaker 11: wake up call. We'll see when ben Nickmatham returns and

2090
01:43:17,560 --> 01:43:19,400
Speaker 11: what's up with Neith Smith and if they can somehow

2091
01:43:19,439 --> 01:43:21,080
Speaker 11: get a win tomorrow night against the Raptors.

2092
01:43:21,200 --> 01:43:22,920
Speaker 1: All right, I'll get back to football for a final

2093
01:43:23,160 --> 01:43:24,720
Speaker 1: before we let you go, actually be a dad and

2094
01:43:24,800 --> 01:43:27,519
Speaker 1: enjoy a little downtime here on the Colts bye week.

2095
01:43:28,600 --> 01:43:32,080
Speaker 1: Where would you wager a guess? And I use the

2096
01:43:32,080 --> 01:43:35,880
Speaker 1: word wager on purpose Jonathan Taylor on the NFL odds

2097
01:43:35,880 --> 01:43:39,439
Speaker 1: for the odds are being the NFL MVP currently slots

2098
01:43:39,439 --> 01:43:40,920
Speaker 1: in where.

2099
01:43:42,880 --> 01:43:43,800
Speaker 5: Well, he's not.

2100
01:43:44,600 --> 01:43:46,400
Speaker 11: There's no way he's very high, or at least he

2101
01:43:46,479 --> 01:43:47,280
Speaker 11: should be higher.

2102
01:43:47,360 --> 01:43:47,679
Speaker 5: I guess.

2103
01:43:47,720 --> 01:43:51,760
Speaker 11: Probably the best way to put it, I don't know.

2104
01:43:51,840 --> 01:43:52,920
Speaker 11: I'll say he's forced.

2105
01:43:53,560 --> 01:43:57,880
Speaker 1: He's third. The latest projection I saw that came up yesterday.

2106
01:43:58,160 --> 01:44:00,120
Speaker 1: Can you name the two players that would be in

2107
01:44:00,120 --> 01:44:01,679
Speaker 1: front of him?

2108
01:44:02,160 --> 01:44:04,599
Speaker 11: I guess the guy we saw last night and Drake May,

2109
01:44:04,840 --> 01:44:09,360
Speaker 11: and I would assume Matthew Stafford boom boom.

2110
01:44:09,520 --> 01:44:11,840
Speaker 1: See the lack of sleep is not affecting you at all, brother,

2111
01:44:11,920 --> 01:44:15,000
Speaker 1: you are on top of your game. Yes. Plus three

2112
01:44:15,080 --> 01:44:20,120
Speaker 1: hundred for Stafford and May, plus five hundred for Jonathan Taylor,

2113
01:44:20,439 --> 01:44:24,280
Speaker 1: and right now Patrick Mahomes plus six hundred Josh Allen

2114
01:44:24,320 --> 01:44:28,360
Speaker 1: plus seven hundred. That's the most update list I could

2115
01:44:28,439 --> 01:44:30,960
Speaker 1: find through gurgle search, and I'm sure the Internet would

2116
01:44:31,000 --> 01:44:32,320
Speaker 1: not lie to me. So there you go.

2117
01:44:33,120 --> 01:44:35,400
Speaker 11: That's a little bit better odds than I thought. To

2118
01:44:35,439 --> 01:44:37,160
Speaker 11: be honest with you, I mean, that's not you know

2119
01:44:37,240 --> 01:44:39,080
Speaker 11: that crazy man? You know, ten ten.

2120
01:44:38,960 --> 01:44:40,040
Speaker 2: Bucks to win fifty, you know?

2121
01:44:40,120 --> 01:44:42,559
Speaker 11: I guess I don't know. He's a little bit more

2122
01:44:42,560 --> 01:44:45,920
Speaker 11: in that quarterback mix. But Stafford's numbers, I didn't realize this.

2123
01:44:46,000 --> 01:44:48,760
Speaker 11: It's like twenty touchdowns, zero picks the last four or

2124
01:44:48,800 --> 01:44:52,439
Speaker 11: five games, and so yeah, we'll see. I think he's

2125
01:44:52,439 --> 01:44:54,280
Speaker 11: gonna need, you know, a game to get flex something

2126
01:44:54,320 --> 01:44:56,360
Speaker 11: like that, you know, go off against Kansas City when

2127
01:44:56,360 --> 01:44:57,760
Speaker 11: a lot of eyes are watching you. You know, a

2128
01:44:57,760 --> 01:45:01,439
Speaker 11: few more of those, you know, Mendoza type moment or

2129
01:45:01,439 --> 01:45:04,120
Speaker 11: frankly the run he had in Berlin, a few more

2130
01:45:04,160 --> 01:45:06,519
Speaker 11: of those, you know, kind of the standalone windows. I

2131
01:45:06,520 --> 01:45:07,960
Speaker 11: think to draw a lot of the attention.

2132
01:45:08,720 --> 01:45:11,880
Speaker 1: Again, that is Kevin Bowen, who is working when he

2133
01:45:11,880 --> 01:45:15,200
Speaker 1: probably shouldn't be. Go enjoy a little bit more downtime.

2134
01:45:15,360 --> 01:45:17,000
Speaker 1: I'll see it at some point in time next week.

2135
01:45:17,760 --> 01:45:18,479
Speaker 11: Ray have a great call.

2136
01:45:18,520 --> 01:45:19,400
Speaker 2: Tomorrow I'll be watching.

2137
01:45:19,479 --> 01:45:21,439
Speaker 1: Thank you, sir. Appreciated. And of course, the call he's

2138
01:45:21,479 --> 01:45:24,360
Speaker 1: referring to is the mode On Bell Classic from Little

2139
01:45:24,400 --> 01:45:27,680
Speaker 1: Giant Stadium in Crawfordsville. While bashing De Paul for a

2140
01:45:27,680 --> 01:45:31,080
Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty first time winner likely gets a

2141
01:45:31,080 --> 01:45:34,120
Speaker 1: Division three at large berth loser has to hear it

2142
01:45:34,120 --> 01:45:36,479
Speaker 1: from the other side for three hundred and sixty four days.

2143
01:45:36,479 --> 01:45:39,400
Speaker 1: That's the way that rivalry works. And I get to

2144
01:45:39,439 --> 01:45:41,560
Speaker 1: be fortunate to have the call for a fifth consecutive

2145
01:45:41,640 --> 01:45:47,400
Speaker 1: year via the ISC Sports NETWORKISC Sportsnetwork dot Com. You too, Twitter, Twitch,

2146
01:45:47,439 --> 01:45:51,000
Speaker 1: I have no idea how Twitch works, but we're on there, Apple, TV, Roku,

2147
01:45:51,080 --> 01:45:53,920
Speaker 1: et cetera. The various ways that you can join. Yes,

2148
01:45:54,240 --> 01:45:56,320
Speaker 1: I went to a couple of different sites, and the

2149
01:45:56,320 --> 01:45:59,519
Speaker 1: one that had the best kind of compilation of betting

2150
01:45:59,560 --> 01:46:02,800
Speaker 1: sites was a website called Vegas Insider. But it pulled

2151
01:46:02,840 --> 01:46:06,120
Speaker 1: it up from like last Friday, and they showed like

2152
01:46:06,200 --> 01:46:10,920
Speaker 1: four different listings and JT was basically third or fourth

2153
01:46:11,840 --> 01:46:16,080
Speaker 1: in all of those groupings. At the time, May was

2154
01:46:16,200 --> 01:46:18,880
Speaker 1: slightly ahead of Stafford. The fact that he had the

2155
01:46:18,920 --> 01:46:23,080
Speaker 1: stage to himself and won last night not exactly a surprise.

2156
01:46:23,520 --> 01:46:26,280
Speaker 1: By the way, if you're wondering about the the stat

2157
01:46:26,320 --> 01:46:30,880
Speaker 1: compilation for everybody involved, Drake May leads the league in

2158
01:46:30,880 --> 01:46:33,080
Speaker 1: passing now he has played the most games, but still

2159
01:46:33,880 --> 01:46:37,679
Speaker 1: twenty eight to thirty six yards passing. You know who's

2160
01:46:37,680 --> 01:46:41,400
Speaker 1: second in the NFL in passing yards right now? Daniel

2161
01:46:41,479 --> 01:46:46,519
Speaker 1: Jones of the Indianapolis Colts twenty six fifty nine. Now

2162
01:46:46,600 --> 01:46:49,760
Speaker 1: DJ's interceptions is kind of ticked up a little bit

2163
01:46:50,240 --> 01:46:53,680
Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. He's at seven fifteen touchdowns,

2164
01:46:53,800 --> 01:46:57,599
Speaker 1: seven interceptions, and a bit fewer touchdowns because well, Jonathan

2165
01:46:57,640 --> 01:47:00,240
Speaker 1: Taylor has been the touchdown vulture for everybody. Well this

2166
01:47:00,360 --> 01:47:03,160
Speaker 1: yesterday that Jonathan Taylor has actually scored more than for

2167
01:47:03,320 --> 01:47:07,680
Speaker 1: their NFL teams so far this season in terms of

2168
01:47:07,920 --> 01:47:12,519
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford fourth and passing yardage currently twenty four to

2169
01:47:12,560 --> 01:47:16,160
Speaker 1: twenty seven. But the jaw dropping stat other than where

2170
01:47:16,200 --> 01:47:19,960
Speaker 1: the Rams are in the standings, which would be seven

2171
01:47:20,000 --> 01:47:22,720
Speaker 1: and two because they have had the buy at the

2172
01:47:22,760 --> 01:47:28,080
Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts obviously are getting theirs, but twenty five touchdowns

2173
01:47:28,120 --> 01:47:32,599
Speaker 1: and two interceptions so far for Matthew Stafford. So if

2174
01:47:32,640 --> 01:47:35,919
Speaker 1: you are again and frankly because he's not playing this weekend,

2175
01:47:36,560 --> 01:47:39,600
Speaker 1: JT won't be talked about. But if you're wondering the

2176
01:47:39,640 --> 01:47:42,920
Speaker 1: company he is keeping in terms of the MVP race,

2177
01:47:43,760 --> 01:47:47,400
Speaker 1: it is Drake May, it is Matthew Stafford, and then

2178
01:47:47,439 --> 01:47:49,880
Speaker 1: it's kind of waiting on the Chiefs and Bills to

2179
01:47:50,000 --> 01:47:54,360
Speaker 1: kick it into high gear because the Bills last week

2180
01:47:55,000 --> 01:47:58,719
Speaker 1: somehow Someway lost the Miami Dolphins. There's always at least

2181
01:47:58,760 --> 01:48:02,280
Speaker 1: one NFL game every Sunday. Just go, how the blank

2182
01:48:02,320 --> 01:48:06,880
Speaker 1: did that just happen? And that was that game. Last week, Well,

2183
01:48:06,880 --> 01:48:09,240
Speaker 1: the Bills play the Buccaneers, And again Kevin was right

2184
01:48:09,760 --> 01:48:11,720
Speaker 1: to share. In one sense, it's a shame the Colts

2185
01:48:11,760 --> 01:48:14,040
Speaker 1: aren't part of this. Slave another sense, hey, good for us.

2186
01:48:14,080 --> 01:48:19,320
Speaker 1: We'll get to watch Bill's Buccaneers this week, Chargers Jaguars

2187
01:48:19,560 --> 01:48:24,880
Speaker 1: this week, Seahawks Rams this week, Chiefs Broncos this week,

2188
01:48:25,400 --> 01:48:28,640
Speaker 1: Lions Eagles this week. You know what's not good? The

2189
01:48:28,640 --> 01:48:31,680
Speaker 1: Monday night football game. Like your grandpa thinks, this is

2190
01:48:31,720 --> 01:48:34,880
Speaker 1: going to be a great game, because when Don Meredith

2191
01:48:34,920 --> 01:48:36,880
Speaker 1: was calling this game, it was a great game. But

2192
01:48:36,920 --> 01:48:40,200
Speaker 1: the Cowboys and Raiders are the Monday night football game.

2193
01:48:40,720 --> 01:48:43,920
Speaker 1: The has been Bowl is the Monday night game coming

2194
01:48:44,000 --> 01:48:47,320
Speaker 1: up later this weekend. Now, I have promised you a

2195
01:48:47,360 --> 01:48:51,120
Speaker 1: little more conversation about Wisconsin and Indiana, and I'll tell

2196
01:48:51,120 --> 01:48:57,840
Speaker 1: it to you here. So again, Indiana, barring something of calamity,

2197
01:48:57,960 --> 01:49:00,000
Speaker 1: they're playing in the state of Indiana the next two games.

2198
01:49:00,360 --> 01:49:02,160
Speaker 1: They have a bye week in between. They have two

2199
01:49:02,160 --> 01:49:05,080
Speaker 1: games left to go. The combined number of big ten

2200
01:49:05,120 --> 01:49:07,519
Speaker 1: wins between the two teams they are playing is one

2201
01:49:07,800 --> 01:49:11,479
Speaker 1: and Wisconsin got it last week, and as Kevin just said,

2202
01:49:11,560 --> 01:49:15,519
Speaker 1: their leading passer was their punter in their win last week.

2203
01:49:16,520 --> 01:49:19,960
Speaker 1: Indiana should will be in the Big Ten Championship game

2204
01:49:20,400 --> 01:49:24,200
Speaker 1: for the first time. There was a scenario last year

2205
01:49:24,240 --> 01:49:26,320
Speaker 1: that could have played out. It didn't because they lost

2206
01:49:26,320 --> 01:49:30,679
Speaker 1: to Ohio State. Before that, the last time they could

2207
01:49:30,720 --> 01:49:32,280
Speaker 1: have been in the Big Ten Championship game was the

2208
01:49:32,320 --> 01:49:33,920
Speaker 1: COVID year, and I'm not sure any of that actually

2209
01:49:33,960 --> 01:49:37,280
Speaker 1: happened the time before that, when we actually had twelve

2210
01:49:37,280 --> 01:49:39,000
Speaker 1: teams in the conference and it was six teams in

2211
01:49:39,040 --> 01:49:45,160
Speaker 1: a division in twenty twelve, Indiana's division included Penn State

2212
01:49:45,200 --> 01:49:48,360
Speaker 1: and Ohio State are both on probation and could not

2213
01:49:48,439 --> 01:49:50,960
Speaker 1: play in the game. But at the time it wasn't

2214
01:49:50,960 --> 01:49:53,240
Speaker 1: fully East and West like they tried to mix and

2215
01:49:53,280 --> 01:49:58,439
Speaker 1: match the teams for competitive balance, and Wisconsin was in

2216
01:49:58,479 --> 01:50:03,240
Speaker 1: the same division as was the Indiana Hoosiers, and there

2217
01:50:03,320 --> 01:50:07,040
Speaker 1: was a scenario at play when the Badgers came to

2218
01:50:07,080 --> 01:50:12,599
Speaker 1: Bloomington November tenth of twenty twelve that if Indiana had

2219
01:50:12,600 --> 01:50:14,800
Speaker 1: won that game and had won out, I think they

2220
01:50:14,840 --> 01:50:16,760
Speaker 1: would have put them at seven and five. I think

2221
01:50:16,760 --> 01:50:19,200
Speaker 1: they'd have given four or five Big Ten wins and

2222
01:50:19,280 --> 01:50:21,880
Speaker 1: they would have won their division of the Big Ten

2223
01:50:22,200 --> 01:50:27,280
Speaker 1: and played in the conference championship game. So nobody thought

2224
01:50:27,280 --> 01:50:30,240
Speaker 1: that Indiana team was really all that good. But hey,

2225
01:50:30,520 --> 01:50:33,880
Speaker 1: through luck of the draw, you just might back your

2226
01:50:33,920 --> 01:50:37,040
Speaker 1: way into a Big Ten championship game. And on that day,

2227
01:50:37,080 --> 01:50:42,040
Speaker 1: Wisconsin came to Bloomington and scored sixty two points. Well,

2228
01:50:42,040 --> 01:50:48,080
Speaker 1: the Hoosiers scored fourteen. Again. Before the COVID season, it

2229
01:50:48,120 --> 01:50:54,519
Speaker 1: was eighteen years since Indiana had beaten Wisconsin, and that

2230
01:50:54,760 --> 01:50:59,760
Speaker 1: was a stunning home game, first year of Jerry DeNardo

2231
01:50:59,800 --> 01:51:05,759
Speaker 1: win against Wisconsin. The year before that, it was Levron

2232
01:51:05,800 --> 01:51:10,519
Speaker 1: Williams Antoine Randall l running all over Camp Randall as

2233
01:51:10,560 --> 01:51:14,800
Speaker 1: Indiana won sixty three to thirty two. Other than that,

2234
01:51:16,640 --> 01:51:19,600
Speaker 1: you got to go back to nineteen ninety two, the

2235
01:51:19,680 --> 01:51:21,640
Speaker 1: last time that Indiana beat the Badgers, and again, back

2236
01:51:21,680 --> 01:51:24,960
Speaker 1: in those days, Indiana winning against Wisconsin was kind of

2237
01:51:25,000 --> 01:51:28,559
Speaker 1: sort of a regular thing. Everybody winning against Wisconsin back

2238
01:51:28,600 --> 01:51:32,679
Speaker 1: in those days was kind of sort of a regular thing. Again,

2239
01:51:33,080 --> 01:51:41,120
Speaker 1: history favors Wisconsin in this matchup. Current roster resume obviously,

2240
01:51:41,320 --> 01:51:45,599
Speaker 1: features Indiana in this matchup. It is crazy to think

2241
01:51:45,640 --> 01:51:49,040
Speaker 1: that Wisconsin comes here for Indiana and it's Wisconsin that

2242
01:51:49,160 --> 01:51:51,960
Speaker 1: is the speed bump and not the other way around.

2243
01:51:52,439 --> 01:51:54,880
Speaker 1: Who's yours of course tomorrow in action at Nune and

2244
01:51:54,960 --> 01:51:56,880

Speaker 3: Friday and bottom of the hour here in the two

2258
01:52:30,640 --> 01:52:33,000
Speaker 3: o'clock hour, Thank you to Greg Raikshraf for filling in

2259
01:52:33,040 --> 01:52:35,880
Speaker 3: and for Eddie as well. But folks want to again

2260
01:52:35,960 --> 01:52:38,479
Speaker 3: remind you before I get to an awesome story from

2261
01:52:38,479 --> 01:52:42,080
Speaker 3: the south side of Indianapolis. About Franciscan Health, the number

2262
01:52:42,080 --> 01:52:45,000
Speaker 3: one heart program in Indiana for cardiology by health grades,

2263
01:52:45,240 --> 01:52:48,200
Speaker 3: number one in Indiana for interventional cronary care and major

2264
01:52:48,240 --> 01:52:52,679
Speaker 3: cardiac surgery by care checks, and Franciscan Health always offering

2265
01:52:52,680 --> 01:52:55,240
Speaker 3: that affordable heart scan for just forty nine dollars. You

2266
01:52:55,280 --> 01:52:57,680
Speaker 3: can self refer, you can pay out a pocket you

2267
01:52:57,720 --> 01:53:00,519
Speaker 3: get a free heart health risk assessment with every scan

2268
01:53:00,640 --> 01:53:03,519
Speaker 3: that's included with the screening. You can't afford to not

2269
01:53:03,560 --> 01:53:06,559
Speaker 3: get it, especially if you are over the age of

2270
01:53:06,720 --> 01:53:09,679
Speaker 3: forty and you have one of the following risk factors

2271
01:53:09,680 --> 01:53:14,439
Speaker 3: for heart disease high blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, obesity, if

2272
01:53:14,439 --> 01:53:16,720
Speaker 3: you're a current or former smoker, or if you have

2273
01:53:17,120 --> 01:53:19,320
Speaker 3: a family heart history that is not the best that

2274
01:53:19,360 --> 01:53:22,040
Speaker 3: would be the case for me, then you would qualify

2275
01:53:22,120 --> 01:53:24,200
Speaker 3: for the heart scan of Franciscan Health. But I recommend

2276
01:53:24,200 --> 01:53:26,640
Speaker 3: it for about everybody. As a matter of fact, just

2277
01:53:26,680 --> 01:53:30,080
Speaker 3: got a text earlier this week from a listener that

2278
01:53:30,160 --> 01:53:32,519
Speaker 3: some message said, Jake wanted to let you know that

2279
01:53:32,600 --> 01:53:35,400
Speaker 3: I got my heart scan done, which is I'm always

2280
01:53:35,439 --> 01:53:39,160
Speaker 3: happy to hear about that, and in this particular case,

2281
01:53:39,479 --> 01:53:42,360
Speaker 3: the heart scan was such that needed to then go

2282
01:53:42,520 --> 01:53:46,680
Speaker 3: onto a statin. And that's the thing. Anytime that we

2283
01:53:46,840 --> 01:53:51,759
Speaker 3: are taking the ability to take somebody and then find

2284
01:53:51,800 --> 01:53:53,920
Speaker 3: out that they're going in for that heart scan that's

2285
01:53:54,000 --> 01:53:56,000
Speaker 3: routine because they heard about it here, and then find

2286
01:53:56,040 --> 01:53:58,400
Speaker 3: out that yes, they are able to get the first

2287
01:53:58,439 --> 01:54:01,719
Speaker 3: steps towards cardiovascular health and the healthier living, then that's

2288
01:54:01,760 --> 01:54:04,080
Speaker 3: what I love. Forty nine dollars heart scan at Princiscanhealth

2289
01:54:04,120 --> 01:54:07,519
Speaker 3: dot org slash screening bundles, or you can always call

2290
01:54:07,640 --> 01:54:10,800
Speaker 3: eight three three two three eight zero six eight eight.

2291
01:54:10,800 --> 01:54:13,639
Speaker 3: I'll give that number again here in just a second.

2292
01:54:13,880 --> 01:54:15,840
Speaker 3: But our feel good story, let's go back to what

2293
01:54:15,960 --> 01:54:18,640
Speaker 3: took place at the end of last week, over the

2294
01:54:18,640 --> 01:54:21,200
Speaker 3: weekend as a matter of fact, and think about your

2295
01:54:21,240 --> 01:54:24,320
Speaker 3: senior year in high school. What a special time it is.

2296
01:54:24,360 --> 01:54:26,800
Speaker 3: You're with your friends, and you know, there's always kind

2297
01:54:26,800 --> 01:54:30,280
Speaker 3: of that apprehension, right, that uncertainty of not knowing what's

2298
01:54:30,320 --> 01:54:32,120
Speaker 3: going to happen beyond high school, what's gonna happen to

2299
01:54:32,160 --> 01:54:34,800
Speaker 3: your friendships, the bonds that you have, and you want

2300
01:54:34,800 --> 01:54:38,160
Speaker 3: to make sure that you are taking the most of

2301
01:54:38,160 --> 01:54:42,040
Speaker 3: every opportunity, taking advantage of each thing that comes along

2302
01:54:42,280 --> 01:54:45,520
Speaker 3: the way. So imagine what it must be like, even

2303
01:54:45,560 --> 01:54:47,800
Speaker 3: though you have won a state title before, to be

2304
01:54:47,840 --> 01:54:50,080
Speaker 3: an athlete as a senior in high school and be

2305
01:54:50,200 --> 01:54:52,680
Speaker 3: so excited about your senior year because even if you

2306
01:54:52,720 --> 01:54:56,200
Speaker 3: want a title as a junior, sophomore, freshman, your senior

2307
01:54:56,240 --> 01:54:59,200
Speaker 3: year like, that's your year, that's your class, right. And

2308
01:54:59,280 --> 01:55:03,600
Speaker 3: with Ron Colli volleyball, you know, Christina Erasmus, their head coach,

2309
01:55:03,720 --> 01:55:06,680
Speaker 3: knew that she had a special team before her, and

2310
01:55:06,840 --> 01:55:11,400
Speaker 3: she knew that her senior center Addie Haberthy, was a

2311
01:55:11,400 --> 01:55:13,640
Speaker 3: special player that was going to be one of those seniors.

2312
01:55:13,680 --> 01:55:15,560
Speaker 3: And Addie obviously wanted to make sure that she was

2313
01:55:15,600 --> 01:55:18,200
Speaker 3: putting her stamp on the program on her way out

2314
01:55:18,240 --> 01:55:21,640
Speaker 3: as a senior. So imagine for Addie and Addie Haveberthy,

2315
01:55:21,800 --> 01:55:24,800
Speaker 3: the disappointment, the heartbreak that had to have taken place

2316
01:55:25,560 --> 01:55:28,120
Speaker 3: just before the start of her senior year back actually

2317
01:55:28,160 --> 01:55:30,879
Speaker 3: late summer for that matter, when she tears her acl

2318
01:55:31,960 --> 01:55:35,120
Speaker 3: and yes, Addie has a volleyball scholarship to Zavia knew

2319
01:55:35,200 --> 01:55:36,880
Speaker 3: that the sport was going to be something she could

2320
01:55:36,920 --> 01:55:40,920
Speaker 3: continue beyond the time that she was at Ron Colly.

2321
01:55:41,000 --> 01:55:43,720
Speaker 3: But again back to that bond and knowing that you

2322
01:55:43,760 --> 01:55:47,040
Speaker 3: are with your teammates from high school, it is so special.

2323
01:55:47,440 --> 01:55:49,880
Speaker 3: So they go into the state finals, does ron collye,

2324
01:55:49,920 --> 01:55:52,520
Speaker 3: and Christina says, you know what, if we get into

2325
01:55:52,560 --> 01:55:57,160
Speaker 3: the situation where we have a match point, then perhaps

2326
01:55:57,320 --> 01:55:59,120
Speaker 3: Addie can be the one to come out and get

2327
01:55:59,160 --> 01:56:02,480
Speaker 3: the serve that wins us in her senior year the

2328
01:56:02,560 --> 01:56:05,760
Speaker 3: volleyball state championship. The rest of the teammates, of course,

2329
01:56:05,840 --> 01:56:07,560
Speaker 3: have to do their part to get them to that point.

2330
01:56:07,600 --> 01:56:11,560
Speaker 3: They have to believe in ADDIE's ability to deliver that serve.

2331
01:56:11,680 --> 01:56:15,839
Speaker 3: And in addition to that, you have, of course Bishop Dwinger,

2332
01:56:16,000 --> 01:56:18,800
Speaker 3: a formidable opponent right on the other side that is

2333
01:56:18,840 --> 01:56:21,200
Speaker 3: doing what they can to make sure that it doesn't

2334
01:56:21,240 --> 01:56:23,600
Speaker 3: come down to the point where it is that easy

2335
01:56:23,760 --> 01:56:26,280
Speaker 3: or that certain that there would be one point with

2336
01:56:26,400 --> 01:56:29,440
Speaker 3: things right there and Dweer give them credit, they rallied

2337
01:56:29,440 --> 01:56:32,320
Speaker 3: in that third set down two sets to love before

2338
01:56:32,400 --> 01:56:34,360
Speaker 3: ron colly was then able to get enough of a

2339
01:56:34,360 --> 01:56:37,120
Speaker 3: cushion that when it would come down to the match point,

2340
01:56:37,320 --> 01:56:40,480
Speaker 3: that Addie would go in to serve. Now, the other

2341
01:56:40,520 --> 01:56:42,440
Speaker 3: thing that Christina had to think about was the fact

2342
01:56:42,440 --> 01:56:45,480
Speaker 3: that you have to practice at least ten practices over

2343
01:56:45,520 --> 01:56:47,920
Speaker 3: the course of the season to be eligible to play

2344
01:56:47,960 --> 01:56:50,760
Speaker 3: in the state final, and Addie was able to do that.

2345
01:56:50,840 --> 01:56:54,400
Speaker 3: She practiced the ten practices with the torn acl put

2346
01:56:54,400 --> 01:56:57,320
Speaker 3: herself in position and then once she got the serve

2347
01:56:57,360 --> 01:56:59,560
Speaker 3: over and you can imagine the nerves that went with that,

2348
01:57:00,200 --> 01:57:03,280
Speaker 3: then the rest of the team had to deliver and

2349
01:57:03,320 --> 01:57:05,720
Speaker 3: they did exactly that. Lily Jones got the kill that

2350
01:57:05,800 --> 01:57:09,000
Speaker 3: won Ron Collie the state title, and it was Addie

2351
01:57:09,000 --> 01:57:13,280
Speaker 3: that was able to get that game, that match, that

2352
01:57:13,440 --> 01:57:17,120
Speaker 3: championship winning serve. It is the kind of story that

2353
01:57:17,200 --> 01:57:20,720
Speaker 3: is about resilience, about teamwork, about camaraderie, and about belief.

2354
01:57:21,040 --> 01:57:23,520
Speaker 3: And that's what I love about our Franciscan Health Feel

2355
01:57:23,560 --> 01:57:26,720
Speaker 3: Good good for the Heart story, because sometimes it's about

2356
01:57:26,840 --> 01:57:30,280
Speaker 3: thinking above and beyond what's in the now, but rather

2357
01:57:30,360 --> 01:57:33,680
Speaker 3: seeing in your future and putting yourself in position to

2358
01:57:33,800 --> 01:57:36,040
Speaker 3: be at the best when it matters most. That's what

2359
01:57:36,160 --> 01:57:38,640
Speaker 3: I love about the Franciscan Health forty nine dollars heart Scan.

2360
01:57:38,960 --> 01:57:41,280
Speaker 3: That's also what I love about the fact that coming

2361
01:57:41,360 --> 01:57:45,280
Speaker 3: up December the seventh, don't forget our Franciscan Health November

2362
01:57:45,360 --> 01:57:48,200
Speaker 3: celebration celebrating men's health for the month of November. We're

2363
01:57:48,240 --> 01:57:50,000
Speaker 3: going to do it at the end of the first

2364
01:57:50,000 --> 01:57:52,839
Speaker 3: week of December on a Sunday at Gougman House Brewing

2365
01:57:53,120 --> 01:57:54,040
Speaker 3: over near Speedway.

2366
01:57:54,040 --> 01:57:55,080
Speaker 1: It's going to be a ton of fun.

2367
01:57:55,560 --> 01:57:57,680
Speaker 3: I'm going to be there. Jamb'll be there, Jeff Rickard,

2368
01:57:57,720 --> 01:58:00,200
Speaker 3: Shawn Copeland and Nick Jordan from our sister station B

2369
01:58:00,240 --> 01:58:03,400
Speaker 3: one five, as well as Hammer and Nigel from WIBC.

2370
01:58:03,760 --> 01:58:05,760
Speaker 3: We did this a year ago and it was awesome

2371
01:58:06,160 --> 01:58:09,520
Speaker 3: sitting around with football on from twelve until two, having

2372
01:58:09,520 --> 01:58:13,920
Speaker 3: a cold beverage and also having there from Franciscan screening

2373
01:58:14,120 --> 01:58:17,080
Speaker 3: and medical experts that can talk to you, answer questions,

2374
01:58:17,120 --> 01:58:20,160
Speaker 3: do screenings for you. We'll have games that we can play,

2375
01:58:20,200 --> 01:58:22,520
Speaker 3: We'll have prizes that can be given out, but most importantly,

2376
01:58:22,640 --> 01:58:24,960
Speaker 3: the ultimate prize is about your health. I'm talking about

2377
01:58:24,960 --> 01:58:29,560
Speaker 3: blood pressure, glucose, cholesterol screening, strength and balance assessments. Ask

2378
01:58:29,640 --> 01:58:32,880
Speaker 3: a nurse there for anything from prostate cancer risk assessment

2379
01:58:33,120 --> 01:58:36,840
Speaker 3: to your cardio vascular health. That we always talk about,

2380
01:58:36,840 --> 01:58:39,200
Speaker 3: health and nutrition, exercise experts.

2381
01:58:38,800 --> 01:58:39,360
Speaker 5: You name it.

2382
01:58:39,560 --> 01:58:41,760
Speaker 3: When it comes to mend health, November is when it

2383
01:58:41,760 --> 01:58:45,880
Speaker 3: becomes conscientious. December is when we celebrate the path to

2384
01:58:45,960 --> 01:58:48,520
Speaker 3: a healthier you, and we're going to do that December seventh,

2385

2386
01:58:51,000 --> 01:58:52,680

Speaker 3: bottom of the two o'clock hour, celebrating different athletes overcoming

2388
01:58:56,160 --> 01:58:59,360
Speaker 3: the odds or simply fulfilling a dream like we saw

2389
01:58:59,680 --> 01:59:04,000
Speaker 3: at Congratulations to Addie, Congratulations to the royals. You folks

2390
01:59:04,040 --> 01:59:07,120

01:59:21,640 --> 01:59:25,160
Speaker 1: here we go Warren Central Center Grove tonight at CG.

2398
01:59:26,240 --> 01:59:27,680
Speaker 1: I don't get to Center Grove as much as I

2399
01:59:27,800 --> 01:59:30,800
Speaker 1: used to. It's still for me the best atmosphere locally

2400
01:59:30,800 --> 01:59:32,560
Speaker 1: in terms of high school football because the way they've

2401
01:59:32,600 --> 01:59:35,000
Speaker 1: kind of horseshoed that placeoff and being up on the

2402
01:59:35,080 --> 01:59:38,360
Speaker 1: hilltop and just they're always good. It's always loud, and

2403
01:59:38,400 --> 01:59:40,080
Speaker 1: it's more you kind of set your watch. I'm gonna

2404
01:59:40,080 --> 01:59:42,080
Speaker 1: see these teams usually about this time of year between

2405
01:59:42,080 --> 01:59:45,080
Speaker 1: Warren and Sinte Grove. I've done this regional game just

2406
01:59:45,160 --> 01:59:48,520
Speaker 1: a few times over the years between these two. My

2407
01:59:48,720 --> 01:59:53,800
Speaker 1: NDTV and IHSAATV dot org is where you can find me.

2408
01:59:54,480 --> 01:59:56,360
Speaker 1: I'm sure on the way home you will hear me

2409
01:59:56,440 --> 01:59:59,640
Speaker 1: on with Bob Lovell right here on this same radio station.

2410
02:00:00,160 --> 02:00:03,440
Speaker 1: He has regional scores from across the state of Indiana.

2411
02:00:03,680 --> 02:00:06,400
Speaker 1: We're down at his twenty four games being played tonight.

2412
02:00:06,480 --> 02:00:09,800
Speaker 1: I will go over all of the local matchups coming

2413
02:00:09,880 --> 02:00:13,560
Speaker 1: up in a matter of moments. Tomorrow one of my

2414
02:00:13,720 --> 02:00:16,160
Speaker 1: favorite days of the year, one hundred and thirty first

2415
02:00:16,320 --> 02:00:19,960
Speaker 1: mo Non Bell Classic on the ISC Sports Network eight

2416
02:00:20,000 --> 02:00:22,520
Speaker 1: and one. Wabash playing host to eight and one. De

2417
02:00:22,600 --> 02:00:27,320
Speaker 1: Paul winner gets to go likely to the Division III playoffs,

2418
02:00:27,320 --> 02:00:30,560
Speaker 1: but frankly that is secondary. Winner gets to have the bell.

2419
02:00:30,960 --> 02:00:34,440
Speaker 1: If Wabash wins it, it's back on their campus for

2420
02:00:34,440 --> 02:00:38,720
Speaker 1: the first time in four years. If DePaul wins it,

2421
02:00:38,720 --> 02:00:41,640
Speaker 1: it continues what has been their longest winning streak in

2422
02:00:41,680 --> 02:00:46,160
Speaker 1: this series for twenty five years and sends them to

2423
02:00:46,200 --> 02:00:51,920
Speaker 1: the postseason, likely for a fifth consecutive year. Myself, Kelsey Casper,

2424
02:00:52,400 --> 02:00:56,560
Speaker 1: Brad Walkermerca, Steve Hoffman have all of the coverage tomorrow.

2425
02:00:56,880 --> 02:01:01,800
Speaker 1: ISC Sportsnetwork dot Com is sports NetWM works social media outlets.

2426
02:01:01,840 --> 02:01:04,320
Speaker 1: I tell people the easiest way to watch the game,

2427
02:01:04,960 --> 02:01:07,240
Speaker 1: but I see Sports Network on YouTube and you will

2428
02:01:07,240 --> 02:01:11,360
Speaker 1: see the Monon Belt Classic because thousands of people literally

2429
02:01:12,000 --> 02:01:16,000
Speaker 1: will be watching along with you when you check out

2430
02:01:16,040 --> 02:01:18,960
Speaker 1: said game. I'm sure I'll make an appearance on Bob

2431
02:01:19,000 --> 02:01:22,760
Speaker 1: Show tomorrow night. Sunday is one of the rare days

2432
02:01:22,800 --> 02:01:26,400
Speaker 1: that I know I will not be doing any media whatsoever.

2433
02:01:27,080 --> 02:01:30,320
Speaker 1: So if you know me, and to quote the great

2434
02:01:30,400 --> 02:01:34,000
Speaker 1: Dale Davis, I guess to paraphrase actually he used to be.

2435
02:01:34,000 --> 02:01:36,760
Speaker 1: He would say, I know where you live. It's a

2436
02:01:36,760 --> 02:01:39,760
Speaker 1: great Pacers commercial back in the day. So I'll phrase

2437
02:01:39,760 --> 02:01:43,360
Speaker 1: it this way. If you know where I live, somebody

2438
02:01:43,400 --> 02:01:43,960
Speaker 1: will have a beer.

2439
02:01:44,040 --> 02:01:44,120

2466
02:03:10,160 --> 02:03:13,960
Speaker 1: I have noticed this trend being documented on social media today,

2467
02:03:14,560 --> 02:03:17,600

2468

Speaker 1: we'll welcome in John at that point in time. Today

2469
02:03:22,120 --> 02:03:27,600
Speaker 1: is the thirty ninth anniversary of the release of the

2470
02:03:27,600 --> 02:03:34,120
Speaker 1: movie Hoosiers. November fourteenth, nineteen eighty six is when the

2471
02:03:34,160 --> 02:03:38,440
Speaker 1: movie debuted in theaters. My story with Hoosiers has gone

2472
02:03:38,480 --> 02:03:40,400
Speaker 1: on now for forty years. Like I'm sure many of

2473
02:03:40,480 --> 02:03:42,840
Speaker 1: you feel the same, but maybe I can add a

2474
02:03:42,840 --> 02:03:45,800
Speaker 1: little bit of a level to it. First of all,

2475
02:03:46,720 --> 02:03:49,760
Speaker 1: I found out about the movie there was a flyer

2476
02:03:49,880 --> 02:03:52,480
Speaker 1: on my dad's car or truck. I forget what he

2477
02:03:52,520 --> 02:03:54,720
Speaker 1: was driving back in the fall of eighty six. My

2478
02:03:54,720 --> 02:03:57,240
Speaker 1: guests would be a pickup truck, probably a Ford Ranger,

2479
02:03:57,840 --> 02:03:59,520
Speaker 1: maybe is the one of the old Ford F one

2480
02:03:59,600 --> 02:04:03,560
Speaker 1: fifties what he had back in the day. But we

2481
02:04:03,680 --> 02:04:06,240
Speaker 1: went to go watch. How's this for a specific memory.

2482
02:04:06,800 --> 02:04:11,480
Speaker 1: Cordon opened up a new gym in eighty six. It

2483
02:04:11,600 --> 02:04:15,600
Speaker 1: was christened by the University of Louisville. Having a practice

2484
02:04:15,640 --> 02:04:19,120
Speaker 1: in that gym and The place was packed because U

2485
02:04:19,160 --> 02:04:22,440
Speaker 1: of L were the defending NCAA champions at the time.

2486
02:04:22,920 --> 02:04:25,680
Speaker 1: And I grew up not the case now, but I

2487
02:04:25,760 --> 02:04:30,760
Speaker 1: grew up as a massive University of Louisville fan, not

2488
02:04:30,800 --> 02:04:33,000
Speaker 1: I U, not UK, because you had one of three

2489
02:04:33,000 --> 02:04:35,480
Speaker 1: options back then. Sorry, pertty was an option unless you

2490
02:04:35,480 --> 02:04:37,680
Speaker 1: went to school there in that part of the state.

2491
02:04:38,040 --> 02:04:41,240
Speaker 1: U of L was my team, all right, So going

2492
02:04:41,280 --> 02:04:45,680
Speaker 1: to see them was awesome. And then as we leave,

2493
02:04:45,920 --> 02:04:49,760
Speaker 1: there's a piece of paper on Dad's truck. Hey, the

2494
02:04:49,840 --> 02:04:56,400
Speaker 1: movie Hoosier's debuts next week at the Cordon Twin Cinemas.

2495
02:04:56,880 --> 02:04:59,040
Speaker 1: We had one movie house and had two screens in

2496
02:04:59,080 --> 02:05:01,720
Speaker 1: Harrison County, and I remember going to see that movie

2497
02:05:01,720 --> 02:05:05,280
Speaker 1: for the first time and being absolutely mesmerized. And again,

2498
02:05:05,360 --> 02:05:07,720
Speaker 1: because I grew up in the single class era, you

2499
02:05:07,840 --> 02:05:11,480
Speaker 1: watch that that was your dream. Unfortunately didn't work out

2500
02:05:11,520 --> 02:05:13,800
Speaker 1: that way for Lanesville. We were mostly good when I

2501
02:05:13,840 --> 02:05:16,800
Speaker 1: was in high school, but never could slay the giants

2502
02:05:16,840 --> 02:05:20,040
Speaker 1: of New Albany or Floyd Central to get past the

2503
02:05:20,080 --> 02:05:24,640
Speaker 1: sectional round. And now I fast forward and I am

2504
02:05:24,920 --> 02:05:27,720
Speaker 1: so ridiculous. This is a humble brag or not so

2505
02:05:27,800 --> 02:05:31,520
Speaker 1: humble brag, but please know that I acknowledge how lucky

2506
02:05:31,560 --> 02:05:34,760
Speaker 1: I am to do what I have done for as

2507
02:05:34,760 --> 02:05:36,960
Speaker 1: long as I have and a place as special as this.

2508
02:05:37,760 --> 02:05:40,800
Speaker 1: But here are now my ties to the movie Hoosiers.

2509
02:05:41,320 --> 02:05:44,400
Speaker 1: First of all, I know Angelo Pizzo and David Anspall

2510
02:05:44,560 --> 02:05:47,680
Speaker 1: and John who was standing by, does the exact same thing.

2511
02:05:48,360 --> 02:05:51,400
Speaker 1: I've had lunch with Angelo Pizso that's pretty freaking cool.

2512
02:05:52,520 --> 02:05:56,800
Speaker 1: Brad Long, buddy from the movie, is a friend of mine.

2513
02:05:56,840 --> 02:06:00,560
Speaker 1: He and I serve on a board together. We're on

2514
02:06:00,640 --> 02:06:05,080
Speaker 1: the Milen fifty four board together the Mylean Museum that

2515
02:06:05,240 --> 02:06:09,200
Speaker 1: honors the movie Hoosiers. I remember literally being two floors

2516
02:06:09,200 --> 02:06:12,160
Speaker 1: above where I am sitting right now, when the fan

2517
02:06:12,400 --> 02:06:16,200
Speaker 1: offices were on the sixth floor and my office was

2518
02:06:16,240 --> 02:06:18,680
Speaker 1: down the hall, and getting a phone call from the

2519
02:06:18,680 --> 02:06:20,360
Speaker 1: one of people at the Hoosier Gym. This would have

2520
02:06:20,360 --> 02:06:23,440
Speaker 1: been the fall of twenty sixteen. Hey, we're having a

2521
02:06:23,640 --> 02:06:29,000
Speaker 1: thirtieth anniversary Hoosier's special. We would like you to be

2522
02:06:29,080 --> 02:06:32,240
Speaker 1: the MC for the event. I have to go. I

2523
02:06:32,280 --> 02:06:36,040
Speaker 1: am so sorry, I'm already booked that night, I said.

2524
02:06:36,040 --> 02:06:40,000
Speaker 1: Believe me. At the end of this phone call, I

2525
02:06:40,000 --> 02:06:42,760
Speaker 1: would have been ten years old, correct, yes, I would

2526
02:06:42,760 --> 02:06:45,000
Speaker 1: have been ten years old the movie came out. I said,

2527
02:06:45,000 --> 02:06:46,960
Speaker 1: ten year old means going to kick my ass as

2528
02:06:47,000 --> 02:06:49,480
Speaker 1: soon as this phone call comes to an end. Had

2529
02:06:49,560 --> 02:06:51,280
Speaker 1: to say no, but you want to get to do now?

2530
02:06:51,760 --> 02:06:53,640
Speaker 1: I get to broadcast an event every year at the

2531
02:06:53,640 --> 02:06:58,520
Speaker 1: Hoosier Gym, the Hoosier Reunion All Star Classic. So I

Speaker 1: already being planned for the fortieth anniversary of the release

2535
02:07:09,400 --> 02:07:14,320

Speaker 1: Museum is doing will be at the Milan Gymnasium in November.

2537
02:07:19,040 --> 02:07:22,000
Speaker 1: I think the one that the Who's Your Gym is

2538
02:07:22,080 --> 02:07:26,400

Speaker 1: a lot of surviving members of the Milin Indians of

2545
02:07:44,120 --> 02:07:47,560
Speaker 1: nineteen fifty four. And I was so lucky that two

2546
02:07:47,720 --> 02:07:50,320
Speaker 1: years ago I got to play a part in the

2547
02:07:50,520 --> 02:07:55,240

2564
02:08:45,160 --> 02:08:48,160
Speaker 12: for but man, it surpassed. I actually stayed there probably

2570
02:09:06,120 --> 02:09:09,200
Speaker 12: in that particular area, and not so much because I attended.

2571
02:09:09,240 --> 02:09:11,040
Speaker 12: I you, I'm not at iu grat I went to

2572
02:09:11,080 --> 02:09:13,520
Speaker 12: Indiana State, but I am from that area and that's

2573
02:09:13,560 --> 02:09:16,200
Speaker 12: where I hung out growing up.

2574
02:09:16,320 --> 02:09:17,600
Speaker 1: Even though I went.

2575
02:09:17,480 --> 02:09:21,600
Speaker 12: To Indiana State, and it was incredibly special for me.

2576
02:09:21,720 --> 02:09:23,879
Speaker 12: I had a great time and shout out to Brent Halverson,

2577
02:09:23,960 --> 02:09:29,120
Speaker 12: Greg and Eric and Jake and Mike and Matt and

2578
02:09:29,160 --> 02:09:31,800
Speaker 12: then Steve Angle the owner for having it yesterday. It

2579
02:09:32,000 --> 02:09:34,960
Speaker 12: was absolutely awesome and I can't wait to run that back.

2580
02:09:35,560 --> 02:09:37,880
Speaker 1: Did I see that you had both Fish and Buck

2581
02:09:37,920 --> 02:09:40,839
Speaker 1: on the show simultaneously? Is that a factual state here? Yeah?

2582
02:09:40,840 --> 02:09:45,600
Speaker 12: Well, yeah, it's funny. Don came in and I've tried

2583
02:09:45,640 --> 02:09:47,760
Speaker 12: to get Buck sore and he will never go on

2584
02:09:47,800 --> 02:09:50,920
Speaker 12: a radio show ever. And I've tried to get him

2585
02:09:50,920 --> 02:09:52,560
Speaker 12: and tried to get him, and I've met him before

2586
02:09:52,680 --> 02:09:56,760
Speaker 12: because his granddaughter, Eric's daughter and my daughter have played

2587
02:09:56,800 --> 02:09:59,600
Speaker 12: hoop together before and he's always said no, He's always

2588
02:09:59,640 --> 02:10:01,560
Speaker 12: been nice about it. And then all of a sudden,

2589
02:10:01,880 --> 02:10:04,600
Speaker 12: after Don got off the air yesterday, I saw him

2590
02:10:04,640 --> 02:10:06,600
