1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:04,519
Speaker 1: Memo to self, make sure you bring your own headphones

2
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:09,280
Speaker 1: because I forgot them at home. Substitute teachers do things

3
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:12,280
Speaker 1: like that as I am driving in from getting a workout.

4
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to go for humor there. I actually

5
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:17,800
Speaker 1: have time this kind of year to do things like that.

6
00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:23,480
Speaker 1: And I forgot my bag that have my own headphones,

7
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 1: because it sounds like I'm listening to an AM radio

8
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: in these headphones. And I worked for some pretty low

9
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 1: power ams in the market. This sounds like the nighttime

10
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:36,560
Speaker 1: signal at the old nine to fifty if I was

11
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 1: sitting at seventy first in Zionsville. No, boy, now, Greg

12
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 1: Rextraw is my name. I hope you are doing well.

13
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 1: Jake is getting a Friday off, And to be honest,

14
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: you're gonna hear a little bit more of me, not

15
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: that you don't hear a lot of me on this

16
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 1: frequency already, or just whatever sporting event you might be

17
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 1: going to as it sets up right now. But frankly,

18
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 1: there was no Colt's playoff push this year, obviously, and

19
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 1: with Indiana's winning a national championship on Monday and the

20
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 1: Pacers having that season, and this is probably a Jake

21
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: level reference certainly up jmv's wheelhouse as well. This Pacers

22
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 1: season is going to be like that season of Dallas

23
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 1: that they tried to write off because Patrick Duffy was

24
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: on the show. Eddie has no idea what I'm talking about.

25
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 1: But if you're fifty five at the very end of

26
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: the demo that sports talk Radio wants to hit, you're

27
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: just giving the old Jeremiah Johnson head nod. Robert Redford accordingly,

28
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:40,119
Speaker 1: you know exactly the nineteen mid eighties eighty five, eighty

29
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: six reference that I am making. In other words, it's

30
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: my way of saying it's kind of okay to sneak

31
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: in a day or two off here and there if

32
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 1: you're one of the talk show hosts, and it's part

33
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: of one of the reasons and what I'm gonna lead

34
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: with today. We're still basking in the afterglow and probably

35
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: will for some time of Monday night's championship win by

36
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 1: the Indiana Hoosiers. Heck, even with the snow apocalypse coming in,

37
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 1: we are having a championship celebration in Bloomington, either at

38
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 1: Memorial Stadium or Assembly Hall, whatever the case may be,

39
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:16,639
Speaker 1: and you'll be able to like watch it on television.

40
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 1: Maybe you can even listen to it here. Whatever the

41
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: case is going to happen from that standpoint coming up

42
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: over the weekend. And I think back because I referenced

43
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,920
Speaker 1: this when I was in for John on Tuesday, the

44
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: day after winning a major championship is the easiest thing

45
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: you can have as a sports talk show host. Literally,

46
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 1: Jake and I ran the same playbook on Tuesday. It

47
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 1: was six straight hours of phone calls. It was no guests,

48
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:45,239
Speaker 1: it was just all of us living in the moment

49
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 1: and acknowledging the first major championship won by a team

50
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: in our market for the last nineteen years. And it

51
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: made me think of the years leading up to that

52
00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 1: cult Super Bowl victory where the end of the season

53
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: wasn't as fun and it came at the hands of

54
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 1: the New England Patriots three years running, and basically it

55
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 1: was like a one week funeral for the next week,

56
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: trying to rehash what went wrong and what's got to change,

57
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: what do you got to do differently, et cetera. And

58
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 1: so do we have the same rules of the road

59
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: in terms of celebrating a championship? You know, if nothing

60
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: else can just be Hey, Indiana's your national football champs.

61
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,840
Speaker 1: Call the show and that's all we need to do.

62
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:34,640
Speaker 1: And probably that will last longer than just this week,

63
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 1: but seemingly this week, Max's kind of a turning point

64
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: where we start to talk about other things or potentially

65
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: that has already happened. So with that, I welcome in

66
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 1: Eddie Garrison to the show.

67
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 2: Good afternoon is the earlo, sir? How are you?

68
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 3: I'm well?

69
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: He the company part of this equation, of course, producers

70
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 1: of the Indiana Pacers Radio network, which means he's working

71
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: a day night double header this evening with the Pacers

72
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: in Action tonight. Oh how I wish Pacers in Thunder

73
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: was as important this evening as it was about seven

74
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: months ago, or even on the opening out of a

75
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 1: season for that matter. Pregame coverage begins at six thirty

76
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: right here on ninety three to five and one oh

77
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,480
Speaker 1: seven five the fan. Uh So, Eddie, I was in

78
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 1: on Tuesday afternoon. I know what Tuesday Show is about.

79
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: What have the shows been like the last couple of days?

80
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 1: How much of a percentage has been about Indiana football?

81
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: What are the other things that Jake and you have

82
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 1: enlightened and informed Central Indiana about over the last six

83
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: hours of this program until today.

84
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 4: I would say it's still fifty percent Indiana football. But

85
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 4: the transition of a who is returning, who is in

86
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 4: the portal, who is graduating, who's entering the NFL draft,

87
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:46,840
Speaker 4: and what's the next step, Like what does the next

88
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 4: step look like?

89
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 2: Like?

90
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,719
Speaker 4: How are they viewed nationally going forward? Are they viewed

91
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 4: as this team like Alabama and the Georgias, who's going

92
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 4: to be a constant competitive team that should be in

93
00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 4: the conversation for a CFP championship moving forward incorporated? And

94
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 4: Purdue basketball, Butler basketball, IU Indie as well, the shortcomings

95
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 4: of IU basketball, you know, the last two months, it

96
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 4: feels like since conference, not really two months, but the

97
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 4: last month since the conference schedule started. The Pacers and

98
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 4: how they approached the trade deadline with Benedict Matherin, Jaris

99
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 4: Walker orre there other guys on the Pacers that we

100
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 4: should be talking about that could be you know, dealt

101
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 4: because of the aspect of having to match salaries if

102
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,159
Speaker 4: you want to get depending on who you want to

103
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 4: acquire at the deadline, what type of center best fits

104
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:33,159
Speaker 4: you know, moving forward?

105
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 2: Those types of things all right.

106
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 1: So, because you are literally in this building for every

107
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: PACER's game, you are more locked in than most. You

108
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: are more knowledgeable than most of all the topics that

109
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 1: I've got from a guest standpoint, and I'll start to

110
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: run down that list in a matter of moments. I'm

111
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: not planning on talking to any pacers unless I do

112
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: so with Kevin Bowen, who makes his weekly Friday appearance

113
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 1: on the show at one o'clock. So from a PACER's standpoint,

114
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 1: because I will give a mea culpa here, like I

115
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,040
Speaker 1: kind of keep track of scores, I have a general

116
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,840
Speaker 1: idea what the record is, and I am fully on

117
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 1: team Tank at this point. Like after winning a handful

118
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:13,839
Speaker 1: of games for a couple of weeks, did a great

119
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: job in making sure that the game in Detroit, which

120
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,280
Speaker 1: I think was on Saturday night last weekend, heaven forbid,

121
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: let's not win this one. Let's start resting guys to

122
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,719
Speaker 1: ensure that we get this thing going in the right way,

123
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: which is not close to a playoff position, but closer

124
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,279
Speaker 1: to ping pong balls. And that will not be admitted,

125
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 1: that will not be said, but frankly, that's the direction

126
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 1: this needs to go. It is three more months of

127
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,359
Speaker 1: pain and then we can all kind of take a

128
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 1: deep breath in and just forget that this year ever happened.

129
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: So with that, to me to the Pacers, the question

130
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: is have we seen enough on Benedict Matheren and Jarris

131
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 1: Walker to know are you in or are you out?

132
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 1: Long term? So Eddie, take those one or both at

133
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 1: a time. Do we have an answer after half of

134
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 1: a season as to whether those guys need to be

135
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 1: a part of this going forward or simply they are

136
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 1: trade pieces, they are cap space, the floor is yours.

137
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 4: I think one of those is a yes, that we

138
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 4: know that he doesn't fit here, and that's been a

139
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 4: Nick Matherin.

140
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 1: I think, and that's the more easy answer.

141
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, And you started to get that since, you know,

142
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,679
Speaker 4: as the playoffs started developing last year, because his minutes

143
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 4: started slowly decreasing.

144
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 2: He had a game against Oklahoma.

145
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 4: City where he won them a game, but then he

146
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 4: went right back and lost him a game later on

147
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,559
Speaker 4: in the series. And he just doesn't seem to mesh

148
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 4: with the style of play of wanting to constantly move

149
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 4: the basketball play a little bit more up Temple. He

150
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 4: wants to kind of like break you down in that

151
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 4: isolation game more so so, I would expect that ben

152
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:54,119
Speaker 4: A Nicmatheren's a player that will be traded at some point,

153
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 4: whether that's at the deadline here in I think thirteen days,

154
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 4: or if that's somebody who they try to, you know,

155
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 4: dangle out there in the off season. I sit in

156
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 4: the camp.

157
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: But a sign and trade in the off season, yeah, exactly.

158
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's a restricted free agent, and it could get messy,

159
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 4: could get similar to how DeAndre Ayton's exit with Phoenix

160
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 4: went not too long ago, where the Phoenix Suns were

161
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 4: trying to trade him at the deadline, they weren't able

162
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 4: to do so, then the Pacer signed him to that

163
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 4: contract extension, forcing Phoenix to match. And I feel like

164
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 4: there could be a team out there that could do

165
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 4: that to Indiana, and Indiana could end up in a

166
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 4: bad spot to where you know, they end up paying

167
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 4: Benedict Mathering a money a dollar amount there they're not

168
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 4: comfortable paying, and you've got to match it because you

169
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 4: can't let them walk for nothing. And then on the

170
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,679
Speaker 4: jerifs Walker front Tony East talked about this yesterday with

171
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,560
Speaker 4: Jake a little bit, and it's just been so hard

172
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 4: to evaluate him because they've asked him to do so

173
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 4: many different things, and I don't think we know and

174
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 4: I don't know if Jerifs knows quite yet what his

175
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 4: role is in the NBA. He's still twenty two years old,

176
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 4: so he's still trying to figure out which position he

177
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 4: best fits at, who he best plays with on the floor,

178
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 4: what works well for him, and what doesn't work well.

179
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 4: So all those things are still to be determined. Wi

180
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 4: Jeris and I think he can be a part of

181
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 4: the future, but just need to see more still, And.

182
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: Frankly, Jeris has one more year on his rookie deal

183
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 1: and then he gets so he is one year behind

184
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 1: the time light of Benedict Matherin. You're probably hand isn't

185
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: forced as much on him, But I bring those guys

186
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 1: up because basically, once the injury started to set in,

187
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 1: and once we went from hey, even without Tyrese Haliburton,

188
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,719
Speaker 1: we think this is a mid forties win team. This

189
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 1: is potentially a team that's probably around that. Sorry to

190
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: go ahead, make the hand gesture right around that six

191
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 1: seven line in terms of the Eastern Conference, and then

192
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: a dude kept getting hurt every day. Well, that guy's

193
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 1: out for a month. Well, that guy's out for two months.

194
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 1: Well that guy's out for three months. And once this

195
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 1: became hey kids, let me tell you about the nineteen

196
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: ninety six ninety seven San Antonio Spurs which led him

197
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,959
Speaker 1: getting Tim Duncan and then two years later led to

198
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 1: an NBA championship. Once that became the move for this

199
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:06,479
Speaker 1: year other than general losing, then it became player development.

200
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 1: What do you have in Benedict Matherin and what do

201
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,679
Speaker 1: you have in Jaris Walker? And so from a Pacers standpoint,

202
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:15,560
Speaker 1: that continues to be the question and the answer on

203
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,839
Speaker 1: Matherin might be an exit sooner rather than later from

204
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 1: what Eddie is talking about. But again this kind of

205
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: goes over the all right, now what portion that we

206
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: have kind of gotten to, and so here the guests

207
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 1: we'll have on the show today that might answer some

208
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: of those questions. One thing that I will do, and

209
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 1: one thing that we as the Home of Indian University

210
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 1: Football Broadcast ninety three to five and one seven to

211
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 1: five of the fan are going to do is try

212
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,680
Speaker 1: to string this out as long as possible, because now

213
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 1: you care, what was the stat that I saw going

214
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 1: around Twitter last night. More than thirty million people tuned

215
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: in to watch the National Championship game last night. It

216
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: was one of the most watched non NFL broadcast in

217
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 1: years from a sports standpoint, So people nationally care about

218
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 1: this team. And my goodness, Fernando Mendoza was making the rounds.

219
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 1: He was on Fallin last night, he was on The

220
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 1: Today's Show this morning, he was on Good Morning America

221
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 1: this morning. Kid has star and number one draft pick

222
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:26,959
Speaker 1: written all over him. Handled himself very well in the

223
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 1: two interviews that I saw, which was the Today Show

224
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 1: and which was Fallin after the fact last night. So

225
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 1: we will find a way to continue to bring in

226
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,319
Speaker 1: Indiana football in the conversation. And as Eddie said off

227
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: the top of the show, the now what that applies

228
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 1: to Indiana And as I told the Morning show guys,

229
00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: when a weekly hit with them at eight o'clock, think

230
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 1: of this as the BCAD moment for Indiana football. It

231
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 1: changes how we as in the media, as in a

232
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 1: radio station. With this magnitude here in the Hoosier State.

233
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 1: You know, now Indiana football has a seat at the

234
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: big kids table. And I'll be honest with you, I've

235
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,319
Speaker 1: been in the program director's chair in this radio station,

236
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,840
Speaker 1: and we would always reference the home of Indiana football

237
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 1: or here in the building. We've been the home of

238
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 1: the Indiana University radio rights for more than twenty years

239
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: at least for football, and frankly longer than that from

240
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 1: a basketball standpoint. But it wasn't something that we talked

241
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: a great deal about in terms of content, like the

242
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: conversation we're having together right now, they're going to be

243
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 1: going forward. We'll talk a heck of a lot more

244
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,600
Speaker 1: IU football next fall than even we did this fall

245
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 1: with the success they had. We'll talk a lot more

246
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 1: IU football in the spring, which we never did. You know,

247
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: it was like, oh, by the way, the Indiana spring

248
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 1: game is coming up this weekend. It's opening up for

249
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,319
Speaker 1: a little five hundred, like it was the JV to

250
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 1: Little five weekend. Not now now you can sell tickets

251
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 1: for that thing. Now it's important. So we'll find a

252
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: way to weave in Indiana conversation into the show. And

253
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: the best way that I thought about doing that today

254
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: was thinking, I've got a lot of friends that played

255
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,960
Speaker 1: football at Indiana University. How about I get one of

256
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 1: them on the show today, And that is my friend

257
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: Dan Thompson, and Dan was there during the previous best

258
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 1: era of Indiana football. Dan was there five years and

259
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 1: he played in either three bowl games or four, one

260
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 1: of the two I know. His last game was a

261
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,160
Speaker 1: bowl game and he was on the last Bowl team

262
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: to win before New Year's Day. And of all the

263
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 1: stats we could give you about Indiana football, I think

264
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 1: my favorite one is the fact that the program had

265
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,719
Speaker 1: won three bowl games in their history through December the

266
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: thirty first, and from January the first through January of

267
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 1: the nineteenth they've won three more bowl games since that time.

268
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: Dan and his family were at the game. Dan and

269
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 1: I have talked IU football for years and again before

270
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 1: I have now had my fourteen years and fingers crossed

271
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 1: for fifteen and more with the Indianapolis Colts as the

272
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 1: host of the postgame show. I spent one year as

273
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: the host of the Indiana University postgame call in show

274
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 1: twenty years ago Terry Hepner's first year as the head

275
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 1: coach of the Hoosiers, and we were excited at about

276
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 1: four and seven, and we would have shows where the

277
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 1: phone calls were minimal, or we would have shows like

278
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 1: where Ohio State was playing in Bloomington, and we became

279
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 1: the Ohio State postgame call in show because all of

280
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 1: their fans would call the show on their way back

281
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: across the state line. Things have changed a little bit,

282
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 1: so we'll talk with Dan coming up in the next

283
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 1: segment of the show. As alluded to, Kevin Bowen will

284
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 1: be on the program because we do enjoy talking to

285
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 1: each other on the fan. Kabe and I have our

286
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 1: annual Notre Dame road trip coming up on Tuesday night

287
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: to watch a struggling finding Irish team, but it's really

288
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 1: the camaraderie and the experience more so than just going

289
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 1: to see Notre Dame basketball when he and I had

290
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: up to Saint Joseph County and the Notre Dame campus

291
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 1: on Tuesday night. Since Eddie alluded to the fact that

292
00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 1: we've talked more Purdue basketball and our buddy Todd Meyer

293
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: is really concerned about his Boilers, as evidenced by our

294
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 1: pre show conversation that Eddie might have heard but none

295
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 1: of the rest of you would have, We're going to

296
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: talk to Jerry Palm now. Jerry, for many years was

297
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 1: the bracketologist for CBS Sports. These days, he's back to

298
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 1: his independent status. Palm Brackets is where you can find

299
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 1: his work. But basically with Jerry, we're going to go

300
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 1: like this, Notre Dame. Can we stop talking about them? Butler?

301
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 1: And the Big East is a hole? What does it

302
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 1: look like through them? Butler shorted to pick up a

303
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 1: few more wins. There's probably only three teams that you

304
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 1: can feel pretty confident are gonna begin to see a

305
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 1: tournament teams in the Big East, obviously Yukon being one

306
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 1: of those. We'll talk about what a path to a

307
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 1: tournament birth might look like for the Bulldogs. What's going

308
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 1: on with Indiana? And again a reminder, folks, they play tonight.

309
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 1: They are playing at the Rack, which is no longer

310
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,480
Speaker 1: called the Rack. But this is gonna sound demeaning. It's

311
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,640
Speaker 1: a glorified high school gym. And I love that, like

312
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 1: I want to go see Rutgers play at home at

313
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 1: some point in time. So Indiana is at Rutgers. That

314
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 1: is an early start tonight, six o'clock is the tip time.

315
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 1: Pregame at five over on our sister station literally down

316
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 1: the hall on ninety three WIBC. And yes, we'll talk

317
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: about the Boilers, and I will talk briefly about them here,

318
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 1: they've not been playing well as of late. They let

319
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:56,440
Speaker 1: a game slip away the other night at UCLA, and

320
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 1: it appears that their big three are all going through

321
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 1: a slump or carrying an injury all simultaneously. Frankly, Purdue

322
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 1: is so good and so experienced that I don't care

323
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 1: what they do for the next seven weeks as long

324
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: as they get any level of a decent seed in

325
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:20,639
Speaker 1: the NCAA tournament. Their season starts March fifteenth, and for

326
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: those who don't have your sports calendar plan if you

327
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,400
Speaker 1: had kind of made your planning through the IU Football

328
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 1: Championship game and then it's just kind of dark space

329
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 1: after that, March fifteenth is Selection Sunday and knowing the

330
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: final four is here. If produce a one seed, great,

331
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,880
Speaker 1: they're a two seed, okay. If they are a three seed, well,

332
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,120
Speaker 1: those means different color jersey. You play the same seed

333
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: you would be if you were the two. With all

334
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 1: roads leading back to here. I'm not trying to take

335
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 1: away in the enjoyment you have of watched the Boilermakers

336
00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:56,000
Speaker 1: for the next seven weeks. I want them to be successful,

337
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 1: but I don't care what they accomplish in the regular season.

338
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 1: With this group, it's all about can you do what

339
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,920
Speaker 1: you did two years ago and then win one more game?

340
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 1: So we'll talk about that with Jerry Palm of palmbrackets

341
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 1: dot Com coming up later in the one o'clock hour. Jake,

342
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 1: what he takes off on a Friday is nice enough

343
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: to leave a segment for me so I can go

344
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,879
Speaker 1: walk around, I can go watch Carl circle the parking

345
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:24,400
Speaker 1: lotter here at the Radio one headquarters. Maybe I'll sneak

346
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,639
Speaker 1: down to quills and get me a coffee, whatever the

347
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 1: maze case may be. He will have doctor George Lowly

348
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 1: from Franciscan Health as part of his feel good Fridays.

349
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: And one thing that Jake is passionate about as well,

350
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,400
Speaker 1: for they are a sponsor, that'd be the Indie Ignite.

351
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:42,480
Speaker 1: It is volleyball season in indianapole Let's Major League Volleyball

352
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,880
Speaker 1: at that and the Ignite, in their second season, are

353
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 1: three and zero to start this season, and Lydia Martin,

354
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,399
Speaker 1: middle blocker for the Indie Ignite, will be joining us

355
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 1: weather be damned. The Ignite have their home opener tomorrow

356
00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: night against the Omaha Supernova.

357
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 2: Is what a team? What a name?

358
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 1: Seven o'clock is the first serve time at the Fishers

359
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 1: Event Center. Again, that will be come Hecker High Water

360
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 1: from a weather standpoint, And I will give you an example,

361
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,880
Speaker 1: because I was scheduled to have a high school basketball

362
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 1: game tomorrow night. That has been moved and I no

363
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,359
Speaker 1: longer have a high school basketball game tomorrow night. I

364
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,399
Speaker 1: do have a couple events on Sunday that are gonna

365
00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 1: happen regardless of the weather. I've got IU Indian Purdue

366
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,639
Speaker 1: Fort Wayne. You can catch that on my NDTV twenty

367
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:34,120
Speaker 1: three with Keverriage beginning at two o'clock, and then where

368
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 1: you can hear it on this radio station. Myself and

369
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:40,359
Speaker 1: Kristin Hasley will have the girls' basketball state pairings for

370
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 1: the upcoming fifty first IHSAA girls Basketball State Championship. And

371
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: again we're doing that or regardless of how much snow

372
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,120
Speaker 1: gets dumped on us on the next forty eight hours,

373
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 1: we are doing that show. Maybe have just a bit

374
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 1: fewer watch parties around the state of Indiana than we

375
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 1: normally do for shows like that. Six o'clock is when

376
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: that happens on Sunday. I do have Pike and Carmel

377
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 1: this evening at seven thirty on my NDTV. I do

378
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 1: have soccer Saturday, so there's a Garasenio reference for you,

379
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,439
Speaker 1: Eddie tomorrow morning at nine am here on ninety three

380
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,479
Speaker 1: five and one oh seven five to the fan, and

381
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do the marry and doubleheader tomorrow afternoon. That's

382
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,919
Speaker 1: gonna happen. I think that's gonna get in before the

383
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:26,879
Speaker 1: weather gets in. So a slightly less busy weekend, but

384
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:32,439
Speaker 1: still obviously a very busy weekend. H I've got a

385
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,640
Speaker 1: lot of the guests covered. But obviously if you want

386
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 1: to be a part of the show, three one seven

387
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 1: two three nine ten seventy is both the phone number

388
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:48,920
Speaker 1: and the text number. Now, apparently I'm not here enough

389
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 1: to qualify to be able to get the text line

390
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 1: where I can read it, So if you text the show,

391
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: Eddie has to read them to me.

392
00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:58,720
Speaker 2: I hope that's okay.

393
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 1: If you want to talk to me to directly, which

394
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 1: I am perfectly fine, then use the voice option at

395
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,879
Speaker 1: three one seven two three nine ten seventy. You can

396
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:10,119
Speaker 1: obviously tweet to me at Greg Rekestraw and if you

397
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 1: know the bat phone, I will share that with you

398
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 1: as well. But like I said, we are now a

399
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: college football market. We used to be a market that

400
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 1: would occasionally top college football. But when the national champion

401
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 1: is just down the road from you, then you give

402
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:33,400
Speaker 1: a little more credence to stories like this. And apparently

403
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 1: there will be only a slight tweak to the college

404
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 1: football playoff format next year. You had heard that sixteen

405
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 1: or twenty four teams could be playing in the playoff

406
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:49,400
Speaker 1: next year. No, because the two true superpowers, and let's

407
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 1: face it, God I love crowing about this, the Big

408
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,159
Speaker 1: Ten really is the college football superpower. I mean, we

409
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 1: have won three consecutive champions, not those bums and has

410
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 1: beens from the SEC, but financially, those are the two superpowers.

411
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 1: One oneted sixteen teams in the playoff, the other one

412
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 1: in twenty four apparently, so we're gonna stay at twelve

413
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:19,440
Speaker 1: since there was no agreement. So apparently, here is how

414
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:25,119
Speaker 1: this is going to play out. The four power conference

415
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 1: champs will get an automatic berth, Notre Dame will get

416
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:35,359
Speaker 1: a berth if they are in the top twelve, and

417
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 1: everything else will stay the same. So twelve teams next

418
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 1: year for the CFP and no changes on that front.

419
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,920
Speaker 1: The other thing that I'll share off the top of

420
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: the show before we get to our next breaking it's

421
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,679
Speaker 1: I you football related, and I'll admit to you I

422
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 1: think as the substitute teacher, I can do this. I

423
00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:03,880
Speaker 1: do listen to other sports talk shows, sources, etc. Then

424
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,360
Speaker 1: just what's on the fan if it makes you feel better.

425
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 1: I was doing this via satellite radio and not like

426
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:12,480
Speaker 1: an AM frequencies and sar on a something of a

427
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 1: competitor if the station truly has a competitor in the

428
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 1: market at this point. But list are the Dan Patrick

429
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 1: Show on the way, he was making a pretty good

430
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:25,919
Speaker 1: argument for the Raiders trading the number one pick in

431
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: other words, and why am I bringing that up here? Well,

432
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 1: because it's Fernando he's talking about. That's not denigrating Fernando Mendoza.

433
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 1: By the way, I think there is zero doubt in

434
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,160
Speaker 1: anybody's mind that that kid is the number one pick

435
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:46,359
Speaker 1: in the draft, regardless of whom is taking him. I

436
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: think he's a perfect fit for Las Vegas because they

437
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 1: need somebody to market that franchise around, and it's tough

438
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 1: to pass on what you think is a franchise quarterback.

439
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 1: And I think that kid has the goods. The combination

440
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: of what he's got mentally and physically probably not a

441
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:11,919
Speaker 1: can't miss prospect from just arm strength, from just his

442
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: running ability, but because his floor seems to be so

443
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 1: high and frankly the X slash it factor that he

444
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 1: seems to have. Can I mention again that he was

445
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 1: on Jimmy Fallon last night, and he was on Good

446
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 1: Morning America today, and he was on the Today Show.

447
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 1: And the Raiders have been hot garbage since they moved

448
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:43,400
Speaker 1: to Vegas. Now they have a franchise following from decades ago,

449
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 1: and prison inmates and things like that that seems to

450
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:50,199
Speaker 1: follow that team, which Mendoza would be the opposite of that.

451
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,879
Speaker 1: But Dan's point that he was making was look at

452
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: the hall the Bears got for Bryce Young three years ago,

453
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 1: and eventually it gave them Caleb Williams the next year,

454
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 1: and it gave them Dj Moore immediately, and it gave

455
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 1: them additional draft picks. And the Raiders are a team that,

456
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 1: in one sense, they could use all the help they

457
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 1: could get since they have been largely non competitive. But

458
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 1: at the same time, you got Ashton Genty, you got

459
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 1: Rock Bowers, you bring in Mendoza, seemingly your future is

460
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 1: set from an offensive skill position standpoint, so something we

461
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: can talk about as well, And honestly, it's conversations like

462
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 1: that we're gonna talk about a lot over the next

463
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 1: three months. Again, it's a way to bring IU football

464
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 1: into the conversation. But with the Pacers season being the

465
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: opposite of memorable and with the Colts on having a

466
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 1: first round pick, what do we talk about?

467
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:53,719
Speaker 5: Oh?

468
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,080
Speaker 1: Well, the guy that played down the road to me

469
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 1: the number one pick in the draft, and just how

470
00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:02,639
Speaker 1: many Indiana Hoosiers will hear their names called in Pittsburgh

471
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,880
Speaker 1: that last weekend in April. With that, the phone lines

472
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 1: are open. Dial us up now three one, seven, two, three, nine,

473
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 1: ten seventy, tweet to me at Greg Rakestraw, or you

474
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 1: could text the show at that same number as well. However,

475
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,879
Speaker 1: we will simply spend the next segment of the show

476
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 1: reminiscing about the season that was and the night that

477
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,880
Speaker 1: was in South Florida on Monday night with a good

478
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,400
Speaker 1: friend and a pretty good tight end in his days

479
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:29,399
Speaker 1: at in University as well. Dan Thompson joins us next.

480
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 1: It's Greg Rekestraw in for j Query and you are

481
00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 1: listening on ninety three to five and one oh seven

482
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:40,760
Speaker 1: to five the fan It is Query and Company, No Query,

483
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 1: just the company. He gets a Friday afternoon off. My

484
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 1: name is Greg Rekstraw Andy Garrison on the ones and twos,

485
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 1: and we'll do the typical substitute teacher thing, and that

486
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 1: is trying to get to as many guests on the

487
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:59,919
Speaker 1: program as possible. Again, Indiana football will still be our

488
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 1: dominant topic, but we're now four days removed from a championship.

489
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 1: We will start to sprinkle in a few other things

490
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 1: as we go along. But off the top of the show, no,

491
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 1: we're talking about the Hoosiers. And I thought about this,

492
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 1: knowing I was going to have this assignment for the

493
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: last two or three days. Who do I want to

494
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,119
Speaker 1: get on? That's a little bit different voice wise than

495
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 1: what you normally get to hear. And I thought about

496
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 1: all of my friends that played at IU. This is

497
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,000
Speaker 1: the closest friend I have of that group. He and

498
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 1: family wouldn't have missed this for a world. I saw

499
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:35,640
Speaker 1: their pictures on Facebook from hard Rock on Monday night,

500
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:39,640
Speaker 1: and I hope his tan is matching his smile. Dan

501
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 1: Thompson joins us now on the Java House Peel and

502
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 1: poor guest line. How you doing, my friend, I'm.

503
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 3: Doing fantastic, Greg. How about yourself?

504
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 1: I'm good. Have you made your way back to central

505
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 1: Indiana or have you just moved operation to South Beach.

506
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 3: At this point, I would love to stay down there

507
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 3: a little bit longer for sure, you know, just reminiscing

508
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 3: with some of the old teammates and friends. We had

509
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 3: a great time down there, but no came back to

510
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 3: the cold and I made an Indiana week. So I

511
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 3: wore a IU National Championship QUARTERSIP shirt whatever be every

512
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 3: day since I went back to the office.

513
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 1: So well, you run the office, your name's on the business,

514
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 1: you use up the dress code, and you can get

515
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 1: to wear whatever you want to. How many of the

516
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:26,639
Speaker 1: three ball games would you attend?

517
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,879
Speaker 3: I took? We attended them all. So we started with

518
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 3: the Big Ten Championship and then out for the Rose Bowl,

519
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:37,119
Speaker 3: which was absolutely amazing. I mean not only beating a

520
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 3: blue blood and you know, Alabama, but just having all

521
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 3: of the IU fans there was just an incredible, you know,

522
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 3: almost fulfilling experience of him win. When we had the

523
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:55,240
Speaker 3: IU cheer, you could hear the IU echo around the Bowl.

524
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 3: Throughout the game it was. It was fantastic. We took

525
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:03,600
Speaker 3: the RV down to the Peach Bowl and that was great.

526
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,480
Speaker 3: We had Kelly Ham who's another friend of mine. She

527
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 3: and I did put a tailgate on and we had

528
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 3: about three hundred people, about sixty former teammates and friends,

529
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 3: celebrating the last time we were down as well as

530
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 3: this team obviously. And then of course I chose not

531
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,480
Speaker 3: to drive the RV all the way down to Miami.

532
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 3: We just flew down and spent time with friends down there.

533
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 3: That's a crazy place to watch at least a tailgate

534
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 3: for the game. Not as easy as everything else.

535
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 1: But now, given the amount of money that Dan just

536
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 1: spending the month, we have to change his office to

537
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 1: the Thompson not as wealth management group. He'll build it

538
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 1: back up in the market for you soon, I promise you. Then,

539
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 1: one of the things that hit me knowing you and

540
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 1: I would have a conversation about this on the air

541
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 1: or off the air, because there has been such a

542
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 1: My god, this is a losing his program in the

543
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 1: history at major college football, and now look at it.

544
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,880
Speaker 1: My guess is, since you were a part of the

545
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 1: most sustained run of success before the last two years.

546
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:12,720
Speaker 1: You might take a little umbrage with that. So what

547
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 1: is it like saying, hey, wait a minute, we were

548
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 1: pretty good back in my day too.

549
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 5: You know.

550
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 3: That's excellent point, Greg, is that our teammates and I

551
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,080
Speaker 3: were kind of like, wait a minute. You know, we

552
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 3: did win games, We were ranging the top twenty five,

553
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,360
Speaker 3: we did go to bowl games. We had I forget,

554
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 3: I think it was twenty seven people during the class

555
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 3: that I had was or excuse me, the classes that

556
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 3: I had within the NFL and played in the NFL,

557
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 3: and so we had talent. What we didn't have was

558
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 3: the commitment from the university that is now there. And

559
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 3: so if you look at what we had, we had success.

560
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 3: But then it got to be a little embarrassing that

561
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 3: I was on the last winning bowl team. You know,

562
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 3: that was I'm fifty five tomorrow, so I mean, that's

563
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,520
Speaker 3: a long time since we were winning, you know, a

564
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 3: bowl game. So we are so thankful that the program

565
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 3: is now supported more by the university, but thankful for

566
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 3: these players. I mean, I was blessed that Fernando played

567
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 3: with my cousin, with my nephew out at cal and

568
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:14,560
Speaker 3: I got to meet him at my nephew's wedding this

569
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 3: this summer. It was the first time that I really

570
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 3: knew what kind of young man he was. My assister

571
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 3: introduced me to him and he's like, when did you play?

572
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:25,760
Speaker 3: And I said, well, it was eighty nine through ninety three,

573
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 3: And before I could say another word, he was like, well,

574
00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 3: that's Bill Mallory's years. He's the winning this coach and

575
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 3: i U sports history. You guys went to several bowl games.

576
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 3: He goes, were you on the Peach Bowl?

577
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 5: Were you?

578
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:37,920
Speaker 3: And he went through he'd only been there for three months,

579
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 3: and he knew more about IU football than almost anybody

580
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 3: else I had talked to you outside of the players,

581
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 3: And it was genuine. He was just a genuine person.

582
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:49,200
Speaker 3: And it's so fun to watch him now and to

583
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 3: see that that truly is the person that he is

584
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 3: that you see, you know, with the interviews and the

585
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 3: way he leads his team and leads leads by his faith.

586
00:31:58,320 --> 00:31:59,760
Speaker 3: Can't say enough good things about.

587
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,920
Speaker 1: For an End again, Dan Thompson is our guest talking

588
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 1: about Monday Nights National Championship game and again getting his

589
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 1: unique perspective as a player and former analyst on the

590
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 1: Radio Network here on ninety three to five and one

591
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 1: oh seven for the fine. In your five years at IU,

592
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 1: three bowl games are four? What was the total three

593
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:19,080
Speaker 1: bowl games?

594
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 2: Three?

595
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 1: Okay, that's still very impressive.

596
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 3: The Peach Bowl and the Copper Bowl and the Independence Bowl.

597
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 1: Right, Independence Battle was your last game, and Robvius, the

598
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 1: Copper Bowl obviously was the last win until New Year's Day.

599
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 1: When you were in school, was the goal always a

600
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 1: Rose Bowl? Was a thought of a national championship ever,

601
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 1: something that was truly in your mind.

602
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:44,440
Speaker 3: You know, that's a great point. We didn't really think

603
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 3: about national championship. So you thought if you went to

604
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:48,960
Speaker 3: the Rolls Bowl, that kind of was the national championship

605
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,360
Speaker 3: because you know, back then it was voted on. And

606
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 3: you know, that was the one thing that our senior year,

607
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 3: we had lost a close game at Penn State, we

608
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:00,080
Speaker 3: had lost on a we fumbled going into from the

609
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,440
Speaker 3: winning score against Wisconsin earlier in the year, and then

610
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 3: we lost a close one at Ohio State. And that

611
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 3: year which really one of the best years they've had since,

612
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 3: you know, the eighty seven team, when if they'd beat

613
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 3: Michigan State, they would have gone to the Rose Bowl.

614
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 3: So it was, you know, one of our last chances,

615
00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:19,480
Speaker 3: if you would. While we were there to play, the

616
00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 3: interesting part was that we were told that we couldn't

617
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:25,560
Speaker 3: go to the Citrus Bowl because the school wouldn't guarantee

618
00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:30,080
Speaker 3: the tickets. So we ended up that year eight and three,

619
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 3: third in the Big Ten, going to the Independence Bowl

620
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:38,479
Speaker 3: in Shreveport, Louisiana instead of the Sitchers Bowl on New

621
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:41,440
Speaker 3: Year's Day. And of course they took Michigan because they were,

622
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 3: you know, guaranteed that tickets were spent. So when I

623
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:46,959
Speaker 3: don't think it lightly when I said, the university has

624
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:49,560
Speaker 3: finally gotten behind the football program, and it's so great

625
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 3: to see. Of course, that's taking nothing away from the talent.

626
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:54,800
Speaker 3: I mean, if you look across the board that that's

627
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 3: an incredibly talented group of young men and coaching staff

628
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 3: on the team now. So it's wonderful to watch.

629
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 1: When you first met Kurt or first heard him talk,

630
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 1: at what point in time in the last twenty five

631
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 1: months do you say, hey, we've got something special here.

632
00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 3: It's well, the first time I met him, I wasn't

633
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:18,759
Speaker 3: impressed at all. We're at the coach's convention and I

634
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:22,360
Speaker 3: had introduced myself as a former player, and I'm friends

635
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,399
Speaker 3: with Bob Bostad, the offensive line coach, which I still

636
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,279
Speaker 3: believe was the greatest deal from a coaching staff we've

637
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 3: had from a position coach, because he's one of the

638
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 3: top three I think offensive line coaches in the country.

639
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:38,839
Speaker 3: And he introduced me to Coach Signetti, and coach talked

640
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:40,759
Speaker 3: me for about, I don't know, two and a half

641
00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 3: minutes and needed the He left like, oh, okay, that

642
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,799
Speaker 3: was that was uninspired you for that piece. But from

643
00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:52,239
Speaker 3: everybody that I've talked to, he's just he's maybe not

644
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 3: as great at, you know, shaking hands and kissing babies

645
00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:57,960
Speaker 3: as he is as coaching football. And he just went

646
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:02,759
Speaker 3: to hole up in his office and you know, live, sleep, eat, drink,

647
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 3: you know, drink football. So you can't argue with the results. Greg.

648
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 3: It's no absolutely amazing how prepared and how complete this

649
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:13,960
Speaker 3: team is. If you look at the lack of miss tackles,

650
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:17,360
Speaker 3: the yards after catch are so limited by this defense,

651
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,600
Speaker 3: it's unbelievable. And then what they're able to do offensively

652
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 3: by utilizing you know, I think one of the underrated

653
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 3: players in that team is the tight end. Riley Melkowski

654
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:30,960
Speaker 3: is just the way he blocks is outstanding and you

655
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 3: know still can catch the ball, you know, well, but

656
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:37,080
Speaker 3: his blocks just opened things up for people, and you

657
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 3: know it's just a complete team.

658
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,800
Speaker 1: Your membership in the tight End Union has been approved

659
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:43,279
Speaker 1: for one more year to give the love of the

660
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:46,720
Speaker 1: tight End. Well done on your part there again, Dan Thompson,

661
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,360
Speaker 1: jording me, Greg Rekshaw and for j Query here on

662
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:51,160
Speaker 1: ninety three to five and one oh seven five of

663
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:53,439
Speaker 1: the Fan. So all right, so I'll tweak that last

664
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 1: question a little bit. If he didn't why you were

665
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 1: the first impression And frankly I met Kurt last spring

666
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:02,240
Speaker 1: and I had a similar thought on that front as well.

667
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 1: So with that, as last year starts, what were things

668
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,960
Speaker 1: you were seeing on the field and go hey that

669
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,480
Speaker 1: looks different. Hey I've not seen this before or I

670
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:13,719
Speaker 1: haven't seen this in a long time.

671
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 3: You know, the first thing, it's going to sound weird

672
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:20,680
Speaker 3: with more disappointment because as a fan you're looking at

673
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 3: a right, why are we not playing Louisville? Why are

674
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:27,799
Speaker 3: we not you know, allowing the fans to see, you know,

675
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 3: some of these teams that you know we think we

676
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 3: can beat overall, So seeing that he had a plan

677
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 3: in place to build from the ground up, you know.

678
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,239
Speaker 3: The first few games, Yeah, maybe the talent wasn't what

679
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:42,840
Speaker 3: we had hoped the faith. I mean you look at

680
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,800
Speaker 3: this year. You played what old Dominion kennessall State, Indiana

681
00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:48,200
Speaker 3: State before we hit into Illinois. I mean, but you

682
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,120
Speaker 3: could see each step along the way the team is

683
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 3: getting more and more fundamentally sound and getting more confidence

684
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:56,759
Speaker 3: leading into the Big ten. And then of course you

685
00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:00,799
Speaker 3: when you just drill Illinois sixty three to ten, that's uh.

686
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:03,800
Speaker 3: I think we all kind of jumped on board.

687
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:07,759
Speaker 1: Then I think everybody is with them, all right. What

688
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,800
Speaker 1: would Bill Mallory be saying about this old experience?

689
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:14,759
Speaker 3: You know that's not to get emotional about it, but

690
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 3: I was sitting there in the stadium afterwards, watching at

691
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 3: the celebration, and you know, coach passed several years ago,

692
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 3: and just thinking how happy, how fulfilled he would be,

693
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:27,640
Speaker 3: you know for this program. He would be so proud,

694
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,760
Speaker 3: you know of Coach Signetti, you know, in the players

695
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,600
Speaker 3: and I talked about some of my former teammates, I know,

696
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 3: Chris Dyer and I had mentioned it that John Pacey

697
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:39,239
Speaker 3: and I talked about a little bit Tory Drake. I

698
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 3: mean these different guys that it was like, you know,

699
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 3: Coach would really he would really be happy. He would

700
00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 3: have his chest out high, he had his jaw locked,

701
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 3: and it would be all you know, I knew any

702
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 3: and a football could be there. I can just hear

703
00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 3: him saying it again.

704
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:53,440
Speaker 1: Dan Thompson joining us. But I think once you go,

705
00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,319
Speaker 1: my friend, it's always ready to catch up with you,

706
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 1: both on the air or off. You have always been

707
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 1: a very proud alum. And Dan and I see each

708
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:03,719
Speaker 1: other now not as much as we used to, but

709
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: we still work together every year on the old oaken

710
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:11,040
Speaker 1: bucket luncheon. And I think the days of saying they're

711
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 1: playing just for pride, we can retire that statement now

712
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,839
Speaker 1: given the fact that Indiana has won a national championship.

713
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,600
Speaker 1: How do you carry yourself differently when you sell somebody

714
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 1: I played football at Indiana University. How is that a

715
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 1: different statement for you now then maybe it would have

716
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:31,399
Speaker 1: been two years ago or longer ago.

717
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,919
Speaker 3: You know you know me really well, is that I'm

718
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,160
Speaker 3: very proud played football in Indiana, no matter what the

719
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:43,680
Speaker 3: records were. The young men that I played with back

720
00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 3: in the day or not only talented but they're phenomenal people,

721
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,400
Speaker 3: and coach Mallory and the staff did a you know,

722
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 3: a great job of recruiting that type of person. The

723
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:58,680
Speaker 3: difference is the reception now, the reception by different people.

724
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:01,759
Speaker 3: Used to be a core people who just where I

725
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:03,920
Speaker 3: use football fans, and they were a small in number.

726
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 3: And now you talk to people and they're like, oh, wow,

727
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:09,320
Speaker 3: you played IU football. And it's the same people I

728
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 3: talked to, you know, a year or two ago. They

729
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,960
Speaker 3: nearly didn't care at all. And now it's a different

730
00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 3: reception by these people. And you know, I think it's

731
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:19,960
Speaker 3: just great for the university, for the team, you know,

732
00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 3: for the sport. I mean, look at all the money

733
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:24,719
Speaker 3: that's flowed through not just Bloomington, but the entire state

734
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 3: of Indiana by success of the football program. So I

735
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:30,840
Speaker 3: think a lot of people are benefiting from that and

736
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 3: that helps us as well. From as former players. I mean,

737
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:38,319
Speaker 3: the most enjoyment I've had through this is, aside from

738
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 3: the success in the team, is this is the first

739
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 3: time I've seen a lot of my former teammates. I mean,

740
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 3: everybody gets busy, and ya you know, when you're not winning,

741
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 3: we try to have reunions and some guys get back,

742
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 3: some guys don't. But you know, you go to the

743
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,640
Speaker 3: Rose Bowl and that was a goal, the number one

744
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 3: goal of the program from a football you know performance

745
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,840
Speaker 3: standpoint when we were all there. So seeing all the

746
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:01,840
Speaker 3: we're able to come out to the Rose Bowl and

747
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:03,399
Speaker 3: then the more guys at the Peach Bowl, and then

748
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 3: seeing you know, more guys that you know the Independence Bowl.

749
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:07,280
Speaker 5: You know, the von.

750
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:10,160
Speaker 3: Dunbars, the Anthony Thompson's, the Trent Green's, the you know,

751
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,880
Speaker 3: Thomas Lewis, you know all these guys who played in

752
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:16,759
Speaker 3: the NFL, and there's so many more you know al

753
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:19,400
Speaker 3: Thermatory Dray. I mean, shoot, there's probably sixty or seventy

754
00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 3: guys that we saw, you know, off the teams for

755
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:27,000
Speaker 3: those years. It's just, you know, just amazing and it's

756
00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 3: just fun. Right, He's just back to fun.

757
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 1: So you're telling me, I'm playing in a bigger room

Speaker 3: You know, more guys that give me a hard time

761
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 3: that we don't do a good enough job of getting

762
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:42,080
Speaker 3: the word out.

763
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:43,839

Speaker 1: you his experience on Monday in this entire way has

779
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:25,400
Speaker 1: been the way that some of the teammates that he

00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:29,080
Speaker 1: referenced or other ones I know, like Bob Kaiser, et cetera.

781
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 1: It's probably the way they feel right now four days

799
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 1: Purdue is in the tournament. What does their seeding look like?

800
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:34,280
Speaker 1: Notre Dame maybe off the bubble at this point, Butler

801
00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 1: doing enough to hang around in Indiana, may be playing

802
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:42,360
Speaker 1: themselves out, but there's still seven weeks of season left

803
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 1: to go to talk about that with Jerry others. Right,

804
00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:47,600
Speaker 1: I want to get to a Jerry and the next

805
00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:51,640
Speaker 1: time that I am in this studio and not doing

806
00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 1: soccer Saturday or pinching the Girls Pairing Show or on

807
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:58,040
Speaker 1: the Horizon Weekly. When I'm filling in on one of

808
00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:01,120
Speaker 1: our daytime shows, I'm gonna talk more about the story

809
00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:04,240
Speaker 1: of Miami, Ohio. They are twenty and zero to start

810
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 1: the year, and now that we are past the National

811
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:09,759
Speaker 1: Championship Game, we can kind of get to some of

812
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,640
Speaker 1: those other stories. However, there is one story from the

813
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 1: championship game that I wanted to bring up, and that

814
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 1: was that, obviously, this game wildly popular in the state

815
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:24,840
Speaker 1: of Indiana, duh, not a surprise, but this game was

816
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:29,360
Speaker 1: also wildly popular across the nation. Here are the numbers

817
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,400
Speaker 1: to back that up. Reading from Yahoo Sports article posted

818
00:43:32,640 --> 00:43:36,280
Speaker 1: towards the end of the day yesterday, the victory averaged

819
00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 1: thirty point one million viewers for ESPN and peaked at

820
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:44,839
Speaker 1: an audience of thirty three point two. It is the

821
00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 1: most watched National Championship game since the first one of

822
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:53,280
Speaker 1: the four team era that was Ohio State and Oregon.

823
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:55,319
Speaker 1: Little do we know, there'll be a Big ten game

824
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:58,880
Speaker 1: a few years later. Thirty four point one million viewers

825
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:03,839
Speaker 1: watched that It is the fourth watched National Championship game

826
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:07,480
Speaker 1: on record. Now I would assume they mean since we

827
00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:12,680
Speaker 1: officially had a BCS championship game starting in nineteen ninety eight,

828
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:14,880
Speaker 1: would be my guess, but that's still fourth out of

829
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 1: a thirty year swath. That's pretty impressive. The other ones

830
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 1: that had that had more of an audience. Texas USC

831
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:26,680
Speaker 1: which is one of the all time college football games

832
00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:30,600
Speaker 1: after the two thousand and five season. Vince Young, January

833
00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,399
Speaker 1: fourth of two thousand and six. I was actually in

834
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,520
Speaker 1: my car on the way back from doing an IUPUI games.

835
00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,240
Speaker 1: That's where I remember listening to that game on the radio.

836
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:43,359
Speaker 1: That games threw thirty five point six million viewers, and

837
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 1: then Alabama and Texas in twenty ten had thirty point eight.

838
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:50,960
Speaker 1: That game ended up being one of the biggest duds

839
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,520
Speaker 1: because it was at the Rose Bowl. That's where Colt

840
00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:57,440
Speaker 1: McCoy got hurt on like the first series, and it

841
00:44:57,480 --> 00:45:02,520
Speaker 1: just completely took the air out of the building when

842
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:07,960
Speaker 1: that took the case. However, here is the story to

843
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 1: me to give you the wow factor as to Indiana

844
00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:17,560
Speaker 1: football isn't a big deal just in Indiana, but across

845
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:20,799
Speaker 1: the country. Indiana's went on Monday, and again I read

846
00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:22,880
Speaker 1: Nick Schultz wrote the article for Yahoo Sports that I

847
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:27,400
Speaker 1: am reading Indiana's went on Monday is the most watched

848
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:34,560
Speaker 1: non NFL sports telecast since Game seven of the twenty

849
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:38,839
Speaker 1: sixteen World Series. Eddie, quickly, do you remember who would

850
00:45:38,840 --> 00:45:42,360
Speaker 1: have been in Game seven of the twenty sixteen World Series?

851
00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 2: That the Chicago Cubs and the.

852
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:47,320
Speaker 1: Chicago Cubs the Cleveland Indians. Yeah, yeah, Cubs winning a

853
00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:50,880
Speaker 1: championship for the first time in over a century. If

854
00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 1: you want to compare Brent, Ohio, state of Notre Dame,

855
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:56,919
Speaker 1: a couple of relatively large brands playing for last year's

856
00:45:56,960 --> 00:46:02,440
Speaker 1: national championship. Eight more a million viewers watched this year

857
00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:07,120
Speaker 1: than did last year. We'll talk about that and more

858
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:09,719
Speaker 1: with Kevin Bowen. Of course, I'm not sure kay Bean

859
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 1: is an introduction on this radio station, so he and

860
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 1: I will have a chat next we might sneak It's

Speaker 1: Notre Dame Basketball ninety three to five and one seven

862
00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:23,480
Speaker 1: five the fan. What Jake Querry getting to enjoy a

865
00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:32,799
Speaker 1: to him coming up in a matter of moments. In fact,

866
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:36,160
Speaker 1: he is ready as we speak on the Java House.

867
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:39,319
Speaker 1: Peel and poor guest line. I'll tell you more about

868
00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:41,760
Speaker 1: our friends at Java House than a matter of moments.

869
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,800
Speaker 1: I mean, it's fair. I was on your show this morning,

870
00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:47,400
Speaker 1: you can be on my show this afternoon. That's the

871
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:49,160
Speaker 1: way this works, right, No.

872
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:52,200
Speaker 5: I was gonna say, I was very happy when I

873
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:54,279
Speaker 5: was informed that you were filling in today. So great

874
00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:55,120
Speaker 5: to hear your voice.

875
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:58,560
Speaker 1: All right. So people have asked us to make the

876
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:03,160
Speaker 1: buddy trip to South ben like a live stream event.

877
00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:05,440
Speaker 1: Do we need to take along like the fans social

878
00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:08,600
Speaker 1: media team to make this a whole day thing on Tuesday?

879
00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 5: Well, you know what, I have heard that. I've also

880
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:14,040
Speaker 5: heard that we should auction off the back seats.

881
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:18,720
Speaker 1: Should I ask for more tickets?

882
00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:21,400
Speaker 5: You know we get well, unfortunately, I don't think those

883
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:23,160
Speaker 5: would be too hard to come by with with how

884
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:26,399
Speaker 5: he attendance typically is. But you know, maybe down the road, right,

885
00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:28,400
Speaker 5: you know, we can auction that off, give a some

886
00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:29,560
Speaker 5: moneyway to charity.

887
00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:30,359
Speaker 2: Or something, all right.

888
00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:32,399
Speaker 1: I was going to go pure profit. If you got

889
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:34,960
Speaker 1: to bring in charity and actually do something good with this,

890
00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:37,480
Speaker 1: well that's what makes you a better man than me,

891
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:40,839
Speaker 1: all right. So what I am doing today is trying

892
00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:44,160
Speaker 1: to figure out what is the proper balance of still

893
00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:48,440
Speaker 1: talking in again of football, but not completely ignoring everything

894
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:51,400
Speaker 1: else that is going on in sports. So Tuesdays a

895
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:55,719
Speaker 1: day where it's all AU football, What have your show

896
00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:57,719
Speaker 1: been like? What has your show been like over the

897
00:47:57,760 --> 00:47:59,000
Speaker 1: last three days?

898
00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:02,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean he had certainly still been mostly IU football.

899
00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:05,960
Speaker 5: We've sprinkled in some totally the need to realize we

900
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:09,759
Speaker 5: have listeners that are not just IU football fans. But

901
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:11,640
Speaker 5: at the same time, it's the story that you know,

902
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:15,680
Speaker 5: frankly is a national story considering the historical nature too,

903
00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:17,640
Speaker 5: And so you know, we've definitely had a little bit

904
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:19,759
Speaker 5: more of you know, I you on and we talked

905
00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:23,600
Speaker 5: to Dave Dunn, Fernando Mendoza's high school coach on Wednesday,

906
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:26,399
Speaker 5: so enjoyed that conversation. He actually joined us right before

907
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,680
Speaker 5: the heisted trophy ceremony, so he had some interesting tidbits.

908
00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:32,160
Speaker 5: And you know, obviously rank when you continue to think

909
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:34,279
Speaker 5: back on Funday and now you're starting to see the

910
00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:36,840
Speaker 5: d Angel Pond's news declayer for the draft that Doza.

911
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:38,160
Speaker 5: You know, I think we're still up in the air

912
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:41,239
Speaker 5: about Omar Cooper Junior. You know, it's probably been a

913
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,480
Speaker 5: little bit of transition into like, okay, what is next

914
00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:46,120
Speaker 5: year and everything? And honestly, when it comes to colts,

915
00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:49,000
Speaker 5: they are I mean, I guess untill the whatever the

916
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:51,600
Speaker 5: Jim Mersey News or you know, if you want to

917
00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:55,120
Speaker 5: play Louanna Rumo with a with the Buffalo Bills, they

918
00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:57,680
Speaker 5: are one of the quieter teams so far of the offseason,

919
00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:00,000
Speaker 5: just given the stability that they're running a back way

920
00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:01,839
Speaker 5: and obviously not in the playoffs.

921
00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:06,480
Speaker 1: All right, So if there is one element of not

922
00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:09,799
Speaker 1: just the game on Monday, but of all of this,

923
00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:12,719
Speaker 1: of the fact that you and I are having a

924
00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:19,600
Speaker 1: sane conversation about Indiana is the defending national champions in football?

925
00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:22,560
Speaker 1: What's the one thing that you still can't wrap your

926
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,360
Speaker 1: brain around that this is actually happening.

927
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:30,320
Speaker 5: There's so many angles you could go with Ray. You know,

928
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:33,399
Speaker 5: I will quote you know a man that has had

929
00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:36,759
Speaker 5: as a professor back in my undergrad days, and I

930
00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:39,280
Speaker 5: believe somebody you know as well he has you hired

931
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:42,319
Speaker 5: me to be an adjunct professor down there seven years ago.

932
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:45,560
Speaker 5: You know. Dalen Clavio is one of the diehardest, a

933
00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:49,920
Speaker 5: diehard all IU football fans that he has described old

934
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:54,360
Speaker 5: IU as it was always Lucy pulling the football away

935
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:57,880
Speaker 5: like that's that's how it always was. And something I

936
00:49:57,960 --> 00:50:00,320
Speaker 5: brought up this morning on the show is as we

937
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,279
Speaker 5: get in the championship weekend here for the NFL, we've

938
00:50:03,320 --> 00:50:06,720
Speaker 5: described the Chiefs in recent years as they feel inevitable,

939
00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:09,479
Speaker 5: like they're always going to make their critical play, They're

940
00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:12,720
Speaker 5: always going to make the third down conversion, Kelsey's gonna

941
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,000
Speaker 5: find that yellow line, They're going to get the big

942
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:17,520
Speaker 5: kind of the defense that they needed, you know, et cetera,

943
00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:20,000
Speaker 5: et cetera. And if you look at Monday night for

944
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:24,759
Speaker 5: Indiana and really this whole season, they felt inevitable. And

945
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:27,000
Speaker 5: I'm not just talking about like, yeah, you know, maybe

946
00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:30,239
Speaker 5: a break or two, but they also created ninety nine

947
00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:33,680
Speaker 5: percent of that, whether it is with you know, fourth

948
00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:35,960
Speaker 5: and five and fourth and seven and third and seven

949
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:37,680
Speaker 5: and third and five all in the fourth quarter and

950
00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:40,680
Speaker 5: they convert all of them. You know, if you look

951
00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:42,799
Speaker 5: at the block punt again, I keep on going back

952
00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:45,279
Speaker 5: to that play, that's a play where you know they

953
00:50:45,280 --> 00:50:48,680
Speaker 5: had taken their they had taken their you know, their

954
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:50,880
Speaker 5: putt team wasn't on the field. They left their defense

955
00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:52,359
Speaker 5: out there because it was so fourth and one. That's

956
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:53,920
Speaker 5: the play. You see a lot of teams, you know,

957
00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:56,239
Speaker 5: don't even really try to go after the punter in

958
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:59,280
Speaker 5: that situation, and the kal Kamara goes after the punter

959
00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:03,120
Speaker 5: and you know, makes a great, great play, And obviously

960
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:06,560
Speaker 5: that's one of the plays of the game. Obviously the

961
00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:09,319
Speaker 5: call to go for it on fourth and five, and

962
00:51:09,400 --> 00:51:11,920
Speaker 5: instead of Minosa tripping over Pat Coogan to make the

963
00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:15,560
Speaker 5: Lucy analogy, you know, he finds his way into the

964
00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:18,400
Speaker 5: end zone. So, you know, I would just say for

965
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,080
Speaker 5: a program that has often been the butt of jokes

966
00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:23,840
Speaker 5: and when those moments have arisen of like, oh my gosh,

967
00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:25,920
Speaker 5: here we go, we can pull off this big upset,

968
00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:28,359
Speaker 5: it's just wait, I know how it's going to end.

969
00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:31,440
Speaker 5: I don't need to watch it. It was the reverse of

970
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:32,320
Speaker 5: an all season.

971
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:35,200
Speaker 1: Long one of the things that again we all view

972
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:38,680
Speaker 1: all elements of life through the prison of our own experience.

973
00:51:39,520 --> 00:51:42,440
Speaker 1: I was a radio program director of two different players, right,

974
00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:46,560
Speaker 1: two different to stations. So I think about almost the

975
00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:50,680
Speaker 1: what now, not just for Indiana as a program, but

976
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:54,640
Speaker 1: how we cover Indiana as a program. You have now

977
00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:58,400
Speaker 1: been in the sports content business in this market, for

978
00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:01,640
Speaker 1: the last fourteen years. What sort of seat at the

979
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:06,719
Speaker 1: table does Indiana football have now, like in comparison to

980
00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:10,400
Speaker 1: the Colts, the Pacers, I, you, basketball, et cetera.

981
00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:16,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's that's another really good question. I I you know,

982
00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:18,680
Speaker 5: I'm just going off of you know, numbers, you know,

983
00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:22,520
Speaker 5: after wins you know here or this playoff run. I mean,

984
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 5: you know, the Monday after a Colts game, I think

985
00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:27,799
Speaker 5: is still king in this town. I'm just strictly going

986
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 5: off of, you know, numbers that we would have to

987
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:34,680
Speaker 5: kind of back that up, you know, I I that

988
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:38,080
Speaker 5: Pacer playoff run, you know, certainly challenge some of that,

989
00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:40,879
Speaker 5: and you know, I would say the Indiana run would

990
00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:45,319
Speaker 5: be right there. So I'm sure it will. It will

991
00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:49,200
Speaker 5: continue to push. And anytime you're a consistent winner, you're

992
00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:52,280
Speaker 5: going to be there, you know, you say, fourteen years,

993
00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:54,760
Speaker 5: you know when I'm done, you know, I you basketball,

994
00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:57,160
Speaker 5: talking the radio, you know, over that time or you

995
00:52:57,200 --> 00:52:59,360
Speaker 5: know much more here in the last five or six years,

996
00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:01,879
Speaker 5: they obviously haven't won, or at least at the level

997
00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:03,680
Speaker 5: that you know in the NAFAS has won. So I

998
00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:06,600
Speaker 5: don't think that's maybe been as the front and center

999
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 5: as it could be if they were, But yeah, I

1000
00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:14,120
Speaker 5: would you know, I think i U football is, especially

1001
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:17,880
Speaker 5: under such a figure that is Kurt Signetty, I would

1002
00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:20,600
Speaker 5: think that they will continue to be right up there

1003
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:22,680
Speaker 5: with the professional sports, which you know, again in a

1004
00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:25,719
Speaker 5: professional sports market. I mean, we are not Louisville. We

1005
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:27,839
Speaker 5: are not you know, we're the SEC towns where it's

1006
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:30,799
Speaker 5: college sports. You know, twenty four to seven, that's a lot.

1007
00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:33,640
Speaker 5: I mean the NFL, I mean, just look at the

1008
00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:36,280
Speaker 5: ratings that Broncos Bills got over the over the weekend.

1009
00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:39,560
Speaker 5: I mean, it's just it's insane how it is. Granted,

1010
00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:41,360
Speaker 5: you know, certainly look at the ratings that in the

1011
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:43,960
Speaker 5: end in Miami drew on Monday night. So I would

1012
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:47,000
Speaker 5: say it is close, but it's probably always going to

1013
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:48,120
Speaker 5: be pro sports. All right.

1014
00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:51,400
Speaker 1: Since you talked NFL, let's move into kind of everything else.

1015
00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:55,239
Speaker 1: What is your give a darn factor about the two

1016
00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:56,120
Speaker 1: games on Sunday.

1017
00:53:57,480 --> 00:54:00,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's not as high as it normally is. I

1018
00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:04,000
Speaker 5: I would say, you know, certainly Ram Seahawks is the

1019
00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:08,000
Speaker 5: better game. And you know, I love watching Matthew Stafford

1020
00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:10,759
Speaker 5: and Sean mcsay and that team, you know, play, So

1021
00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:14,080
Speaker 5: I am looking forward to that. You know, the Jared

1022
00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:17,200
Speaker 5: Stidham story is just kind of a I mean, it's

1023
00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:19,560
Speaker 5: just a very unique one. I mean, you don't get

1024
00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:23,200
Speaker 5: a lot of that type of you know, here's your

1025
00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:27,319
Speaker 5: quarterback for the you know AFC Championship game where you

1026
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:29,800
Speaker 5: have a historic defense and you know they're like the

1027
00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:33,360
Speaker 5: biggest home underdog. I believe the championship weekend and like,

1028
00:54:33,520 --> 00:54:35,800
Speaker 5: I mean that there is kind of a Cinderella field

1029
00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:37,640
Speaker 5: to it, and for some reason, I don't know, I'd

1030
00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:40,320
Speaker 5: have to go back to like Nick Foles's you know history,

1031
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:42,840
Speaker 5: but like Folds, you know, he started games late in

1032
00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:46,000
Speaker 5: that season once Carson went scored a yell and you

1033
00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,759
Speaker 5: know the phone mix injury happening so late in the

1034
00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:51,080
Speaker 5: game as well. So I do think that is just

1035
00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:53,680
Speaker 5: kind of a cool story. But you know, I think

1036
00:54:53,719 --> 00:54:56,680
Speaker 5: with the NFL, we don't like the NFL so much

1037
00:54:56,719 --> 00:55:00,440
Speaker 5: for like Cinderella necessarily, you know, we just like it

1038
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:04,360
Speaker 5: more for the parody of it. So, you know, given

1039
00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:07,680
Speaker 5: our news cycle over the last week break and has

1040
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:10,920
Speaker 5: very understandably taken a backseat to it all, I think

1041
00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:14,319
Speaker 5: if Buffalo is still playing, that storyline to me is

1042
00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:18,120
Speaker 5: always you know, really cool just because of their fandom

1043
00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:21,600
Speaker 5: and the small market and all the near misses. So

1044
00:55:21,640 --> 00:55:24,200
Speaker 5: we obviously don't have that. But you know, talk to

1045
00:55:24,239 --> 00:55:26,120
Speaker 5: me when they're six inches now outside my house on

1046
00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:27,120
Speaker 5: Sunday and I'll be locked in.

1047
00:55:27,520 --> 00:55:31,520
Speaker 1: I will reveal my age. When I think of quarterbacks

1048
00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:35,279
Speaker 1: to make the Super Bowl in backup fashion, I still

1049
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:38,719
Speaker 1: think of Jeff Hosteler first before I think of Nick Foles.

1050
00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:41,279
Speaker 1: You may not because you're a young pup compared to me,

1051
00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:43,319
Speaker 1: but Hostetler is still the guy that I think of

1052
00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:46,480
Speaker 1: because Foles, I thought, was so much more of a

1053
00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:49,719
Speaker 1: known commodity than Hostetler would have been when he let

1054
00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:51,759
Speaker 1: the Giants super Bowl win in Super Bowl twenty five.

1055
00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:55,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm like to think about that, Rachel. So the

1056
00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:59,280
Speaker 5: super Bowl twenty five. You know, Foles obviously was whatever

1057
00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:01,439
Speaker 5: a handful of years ago. I mean, world, what super

1058
00:56:01,480 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 5: Bowl sixty.

1059
00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:06,399
Speaker 1: I think he was fifty two. Does that sound right ish?

1060
00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:09,600
Speaker 5: Yeah? Okay, so yeah, it was even you know, longer

1061
00:56:09,640 --> 00:56:11,960
Speaker 5: than that. I mean, that's kind of wild. One quarterback

1062
00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:14,640
Speaker 5: in the last thirty five years, and you know, I

1063
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:16,600
Speaker 5: get it, it is quarterback, but you would think at

1064
00:56:16,600 --> 00:56:19,320
Speaker 5: some point you would have found, you know, a timers

1065
00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:22,000
Speaker 5: even if the defense just does all the heavy lifting

1066
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:24,799
Speaker 5: to get you there, because I mean, you have to

1067
00:56:24,800 --> 00:56:26,920
Speaker 5: win one game. Now it's a big game. But we

1068
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:30,080
Speaker 5: see backup quarterbacks, you know, win games in the NFL.

1069
00:56:30,080 --> 00:56:30,760
Speaker 3: And again he's.

1070
00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:34,200
Speaker 5: Got the historic, you know defense, but granted New England's

1071
00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:36,160
Speaker 5: played really well. And I think that's probably the other

1072
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 5: thought I've had this week of just I can't imagine

1073
00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:41,800
Speaker 5: being a Titans fan of thinking why did we fire

1074
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:45,120
Speaker 5: Mike Crable Again, you like, walk me through all of them.

1075
00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:48,440
Speaker 5: They were the one seed with Ryan Tannehill, you know, like,

1076
00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:50,320
Speaker 5: I mean that was remark and I get Derrick Henry

1077
00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:53,319
Speaker 5: was doing you know, Derrick Henry things, but still that

1078
00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:55,560
Speaker 5: one is beyond head scratching to me.

1079
00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:59,000
Speaker 1: Since you referenced Buffalo, I don't know what your schedule

1080
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:01,120
Speaker 1: has been like since signing up at ten o'clock. Do

1081
00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,200
Speaker 1: you see who's getting an interview for the head coaching

1082
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:04,040
Speaker 1: job in Buffalo?

1083
00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:08,359
Speaker 5: I did? I did? Uncle Phil? Yes, I did see that.

1084
00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:10,279
Speaker 5: And did I see Josh Allen isn't sitting in on

1085
00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:13,240
Speaker 5: all these interviews as well? I find that to be interesting.

1086
00:57:13,719 --> 00:57:16,880
Speaker 1: Well, Lamar Jackson has kind of getting or kind of

1087
00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:20,160
Speaker 1: had that in Baltimore to a certain degree. It doesn't

1088
00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:24,280
Speaker 1: surprise me. On Josh Allen, listen, I could see Philip

1089
00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:28,720
Speaker 1: Rivers being an NFL head coach. Is he an NFL

1090
00:57:28,760 --> 00:57:32,440
Speaker 1: head coach without having ever been an NFL assistant?

1091
00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:38,160
Speaker 5: First Well, and the one thing too is just the

1092
00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:41,360
Speaker 5: family dynamic for corrects and not to go over the

1093
00:57:41,440 --> 00:57:44,080
Speaker 5: Rivers family tree. But you know, he's got the son

1094
00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:47,240
Speaker 5: that'll be a senior in high school this coming year,

1095
00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:51,040
Speaker 5: and the I believe there's three sons. I believe of

1096
00:57:51,080 --> 00:57:53,680
Speaker 5: the ten at seven girls, three boys. One of the

1097
00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:56,040
Speaker 5: other boys will be a freshman. And I think Philip

1098
00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:58,960
Speaker 5: has already said depth chart is out. He's a backup.

1099
00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:01,920
Speaker 5: So you know, if you're Philip Rivers and you know

1100
00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:05,480
Speaker 5: clearly he's had this goal to coach his sons, right

1101
00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:09,200
Speaker 5: allah I believe his father did to him, then I

1102
00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:11,920
Speaker 5: would assume he would look at that as oh my gosh,

1103
00:58:11,920 --> 00:58:14,640
Speaker 5: the senior year of high school. And again Saint Michael's

1104
00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:16,560
Speaker 5: I'm pretty sure they've had like kind of near misses

1105
00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:19,400
Speaker 5: in the in their state. You know, championship runs here

1106
00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:22,680
Speaker 5: in recent years. You know, why not coach Gunner the

1107
00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 5: oldest the senior year, then coach the second son, and

1108
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:29,480
Speaker 5: then you know, the NFL maybe becomes a little bit

1109
00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:32,160
Speaker 5: more realistic. At that point, I think about half of

1110
00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:33,760
Speaker 5: the ten kids that are out of the house, they're

1111
00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:36,000
Speaker 5: off from college, et cetera, et cetera. You know, maybe

1112
00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:38,240
Speaker 5: you feel a little bit more inclined, and you know,

1113
00:58:38,320 --> 00:58:41,280
Speaker 5: move the whole family over to up to Western New York.

1114
00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:45,360
Speaker 5: Sue hems like quite the undertaking here, So I'm fascinated

1115
00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:47,560
Speaker 5: by it. It's super entertaining. I think Buffalo, no matter

1116
00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:50,720
Speaker 5: who they hire, will be really entertaining, just because Sean

1117
00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:53,720
Speaker 5: McDermott has quite the track record of six straight years

1118
00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:55,520
Speaker 5: of the playoff win. I think they're only one of

1119
00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:59,439
Speaker 5: four teams to have done that in NFL history. But yeah,

1120
00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:01,840
Speaker 5: you know, part of me thinks for Rivers is just

1121
00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:03,400
Speaker 5: doing this for Intel.

1122
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:03,800
Speaker 3: But who knows.

1123
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:06,000
Speaker 5: He definitely didn't downplay it. I mean, Rake, you were

1124
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:07,640
Speaker 5: there late in the seat then, I mean when he

1125
00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:10,120
Speaker 5: was asked those questions, he definitely did not like sweep

1126
00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:13,080
Speaker 5: it under the rug. He expressed the interest.

1127
00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:15,720
Speaker 1: I have all the respect in the world, and I

1128
00:59:15,840 --> 00:59:18,480
Speaker 1: generally think that Philip truly wants to coach his kids,

1129
00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:20,760
Speaker 1: and you and I think even had an off air

1130
00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:24,680
Speaker 1: conversation about all right, let's talk about his kids, boys

1131
00:59:24,800 --> 00:59:27,280
Speaker 1: versus the girls, and how big of a gap there is.

1132
00:59:27,400 --> 00:59:30,360
Speaker 1: Kind of after these two get through high school, maybe

1133
00:59:30,360 --> 00:59:33,560
Speaker 1: four years down the road he becomes NFL quarterback coach

1134
00:59:33,640 --> 00:59:37,160
Speaker 1: or an offensive coordinator. That's all well and good. And

1135
00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:39,280
Speaker 1: I know that Philip played an air where he made

1136
00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:42,240
Speaker 1: a good amount of money in the National Football League.

1137
00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:45,600
Speaker 1: Have you seen what they're paying NFL head coaches these days?

1138
00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:47,840
Speaker 1: And he and the missus have a lot of mouths

1139
00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:50,600
Speaker 1: to feed. There is something to be said about that

1140
00:59:50,680 --> 00:59:51,760
Speaker 1: end of the conversation too.

1141
00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:52,320
Speaker 3: KB.

1142
00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:56,320
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, and again I don't know about it. Health insurance,

1143
00:59:56,480 --> 00:59:58,720
Speaker 5: you know that that that kicked in with him coming

1144
00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:02,000
Speaker 5: back to bright and everything. So uh yeah, you know again,

1145
01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:04,480
Speaker 5: part of me thought, you know, with this rumor, you know,

1146
01:00:04,600 --> 01:00:07,360
Speaker 5: I guess this is the first team he's officially interviewed with,

1147
01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:09,040
Speaker 5: now that I think about it, But you know, when

1148
01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:11,320
Speaker 5: this was ass you know, at the end of the season,

1149
01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:13,600
Speaker 5: I still kind of came back to the Okay, again,

1150
01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:15,840
Speaker 5: Gunner is a very high level quarterback going to be

1151
01:00:15,880 --> 01:00:18,920
Speaker 5: a senior and the other son is going to be

1152
01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:21,760
Speaker 5: a freshman. I just figured, Okay, we'll table this conversation

1153
01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:25,200
Speaker 5: for four years from now. But now it seems a

1154
01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:25,880
Speaker 5: little realer.

1155
01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:29,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I get that Kevin Bowen joining us on the

1156
01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:32,640
Speaker 1: Java House Peel and Poor Guest line. It's greg Re's

1157
01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:35,320
Speaker 1: run for Jay Query on ninety three five and one

1158
01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:38,080
Speaker 1: oh seven five of the Fan Again, You're gonna try

1159
01:00:38,800 --> 01:00:42,000
Speaker 1: to talk as much IU football over the next few

1160
01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:45,480
Speaker 1: weeks as possible. That is the iron that is hottest

1161
01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:48,280
Speaker 1: in the fire right now. What are you looking forward

1162
01:00:48,320 --> 01:00:52,000
Speaker 1: to talking most once now that we are past the

1163
01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:54,640
Speaker 1: afterglow of this national championship?

1164
01:00:56,600 --> 01:00:59,840
Speaker 5: You know, I I guess, are you saying sell the

1165
01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:01,320
Speaker 5: story correct?

1166
01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:03,200
Speaker 1: In other words, if I took you out of the mix,

1167
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:05,840
Speaker 1: what are the things that you're actually looking forward to

1168
01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:07,560
Speaker 1: talking about on the morning show?

1169
01:01:08,200 --> 01:01:10,560
Speaker 5: Got it? You know? Obviously a week from Thursday is

1170
01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:13,000
Speaker 5: the NBA trade deadline, and you know, as we're sitting

1171
01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:15,720
Speaker 5: here right now, you know, what they do over the

1172
01:01:15,760 --> 01:01:21,040
Speaker 5: next ten to twelve days you could have massive implications

1173
01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:24,680
Speaker 5: on what the new era of Tyree Taliburner looks like

1174
01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:28,080
Speaker 5: around him. So I think that is a big storyline.

1175
01:01:28,200 --> 01:01:29,760
Speaker 5: You know, we're now less than a month away, as

1176
01:01:29,800 --> 01:01:33,800
Speaker 5: crazy as it sounds, after that combined news from you know,

1177
01:01:33,880 --> 01:01:36,640
Speaker 5: that becoming a little bit more front burner, and you

1178
01:01:36,680 --> 01:01:38,680
Speaker 5: know what it looks like for Daniel Jones, what it

1179
01:01:38,680 --> 01:01:41,760
Speaker 5: looks like for Alex Pearce. You know, I think those

1180
01:01:41,760 --> 01:01:44,000
Speaker 5: are interesting conversations as well. Or about a month and

1181
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:46,760
Speaker 5: a half away from free agency and then you know, well,

1182
01:01:46,960 --> 01:01:49,400
Speaker 5: certainly and Saturday is a big game up there in Mackie.

1183
01:01:49,400 --> 01:01:50,920
Speaker 5: I mean, we're now going to get a little bit

1184
01:01:50,960 --> 01:01:53,400
Speaker 5: more front center with Purdue and that run and you

1185
01:01:53,400 --> 01:01:56,520
Speaker 5: know that story Rake and you know, by anybody, but

1186
01:01:56,600 --> 01:02:01,440
Speaker 5: that story in many many ways can be as joyous

1187
01:02:01,680 --> 01:02:03,680
Speaker 5: for that fan base is the one that we just

1188
01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:06,680
Speaker 5: saw in Bloomington. And honestly, it's a little bit of

1189
01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:09,880
Speaker 5: a different of all the close calls, all of the

1190
01:02:09,920 --> 01:02:12,720
Speaker 5: hopes and dreams of you know, the Kadi era and

1191
01:02:12,800 --> 01:02:15,440
Speaker 5: you know Humbles a cl and Hoskin heard and you know,

1192
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:18,120
Speaker 5: making it to the title game. And you know, when

1193
01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:20,560
Speaker 5: you think about it, you know, from a football program,

1194
01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:23,400
Speaker 5: you know, outside of Freeze and Morales, you know, I

1195
01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:25,600
Speaker 5: don't know if there have been you know, maybe a

1196
01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:29,000
Speaker 5: ton of those types of moments there. Obviously, they've had

1197
01:02:29,040 --> 01:02:32,000
Speaker 5: a nice run in football during the Tiller years, but

1198
01:02:32,120 --> 01:02:36,120
Speaker 5: still nothing to what a March into April run, albeit

1199
01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:38,640
Speaker 5: you know, throwing the cherry on top of your hometown

1200
01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:41,360
Speaker 5: could be for them, particularly in a day age of

1201
01:02:41,360 --> 01:02:45,080
Speaker 5: college basketball where the dominant storyline is about the dude

1202
01:02:45,120 --> 01:02:49,080
Speaker 5: who you know played professional basketball is now going back

1203
01:02:49,120 --> 01:02:51,440
Speaker 5: to Alabama and the person that signed off on that

1204
01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:54,880
Speaker 5: as an Alabama booster, like, you know, it's just it's

1205
01:02:54,920 --> 01:02:58,040
Speaker 5: so crazy. And here is this Purdue team with you know,

1206
01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:01,840
Speaker 5: a core of you know, certainly the Indiana kids and

1207
01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:04,680
Speaker 5: several of the Indiana kids who are pretty underrecruited as well.

1208
01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:08,640
Speaker 5: So I think that storyline obviously will become you know,

1209
01:03:08,720 --> 01:03:10,720
Speaker 5: bigger and bigger as you know, a month of March

1210
01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:11,560
Speaker 5: changed as closer.

1211
01:03:11,680 --> 01:03:15,480
Speaker 1: All right, let's start Colts. What is the next domino

1212
01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:19,360
Speaker 1: to fall event to happen on the Colts timeline?

1213
01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:25,800
Speaker 5: Well, I would say just the coaching cycle to clear up.

1214
01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:29,080
Speaker 5: You know again, Anna Rumo did interview in Buffalo, so

1215
01:03:29,680 --> 01:03:33,240
Speaker 5: you know that to get through Jim Bob Cooter interview

1216
01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:35,680
Speaker 5: their offense coordinator with the Eagles for that OC job.

1217
01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:38,440
Speaker 5: So you know, once that is done, and typically that's

1218
01:03:38,480 --> 01:03:41,400
Speaker 5: right around the Super Bowl, then again we're less than

1219
01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:43,800
Speaker 5: a month away from the combine. I believe the franchise

1220
01:03:43,880 --> 01:03:46,440
Speaker 5: tag window opens up in around a bunth that's a

1221
01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:51,360
Speaker 5: two week window. Alex Pierce, to me, seems like a

1222
01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:54,840
Speaker 5: more likely candidate than anybody on the roster, including Daniel Jones.

1223
01:03:54,880 --> 01:03:57,600
Speaker 5: So do they use that? Is it similar to Michael

1224
01:03:57,600 --> 01:03:59,280
Speaker 5: Pittman Junior a couple of years ago where they used it,

1225
01:03:59,280 --> 01:04:02,240
Speaker 5: but then they get the law term deal done before

1226
01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:05,200
Speaker 5: free agency starts. So I think that's kind of where

1227
01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:07,320
Speaker 5: we're at. You know, this time last year, Ana Rouma

1228
01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:09,560
Speaker 5: had just been hired. You know, it's not like we're

1229
01:04:09,600 --> 01:04:12,720
Speaker 5: going through one of those coordinator searches as of now.

1230
01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:15,960
Speaker 5: You know, we obviously could here, but that's probably the

1231
01:04:15,960 --> 01:04:19,240
Speaker 5: biggest thing. I mean, And then ideal Colts World, if

1232
01:04:19,240 --> 01:04:21,560
Speaker 5: you were Shane Stike, and I mean, nothing too pressing

1233
01:04:21,600 --> 01:04:24,440
Speaker 5: over the next couple of weeks, assuming that your staffs

1234
01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:26,080
Speaker 5: still intact, I guess I do need to hire a

1235
01:04:26,080 --> 01:04:28,600
Speaker 5: defensive line coach. For those that missed that story right,

1236
01:04:29,240 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 5: their d line coach Charlie Partridge, longtime college coach he

1237
01:04:32,880 --> 01:04:35,440
Speaker 5: went to Notre Dame. He's got there d line coach there.

1238
01:04:35,480 --> 01:04:37,360
Speaker 5: So the Colt student need to hire that. And you know,

1239
01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:39,480
Speaker 5: that is a position group that I think you could

1240
01:04:39,480 --> 01:04:41,680
Speaker 5: make the case is underwhelmed, you know, maybe more than

1241
01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:45,160
Speaker 5: any considering the resources invested into it. I'd argue it's

1242
01:04:45,200 --> 01:04:47,560
Speaker 5: more personnel based and coaching base, but still that would

1243
01:04:47,600 --> 01:04:49,280
Speaker 5: be something they need to get done in SAFT season.

1244
01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:51,439
Speaker 1: Does something degramming to put you on the spot before

1245
01:04:51,480 --> 01:04:54,760
Speaker 1: I let you go? We've talked about Michael Pittman Junior's

1246
01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:58,680
Speaker 1: contract and how Michael is very well liked by the

1247
01:04:58,760 --> 01:05:02,080
Speaker 1: fan base, by the b locker room. Production slipped a

1248
01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:04,800
Speaker 1: little bit this year. Is he a twenty nine million

1249
01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:08,440
Speaker 1: dollar player? No, And the way his contract is structured

1250
01:05:08,720 --> 01:05:10,880
Speaker 1: and the amount of salary cap money would free up

1251
01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:13,880
Speaker 1: to cut him, that seems like a done deal that

1252
01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:16,720
Speaker 1: he won't be back next year or he might be

1253
01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:21,000
Speaker 1: on a restructured deal. Who else is a candidate to

1254
01:05:21,120 --> 01:05:25,080
Speaker 1: be waived by to a little early because it might

1255
01:05:25,240 --> 01:05:28,160
Speaker 1: save the Colts more money than what that person would

1256
01:05:28,160 --> 01:05:29,840
Speaker 1: actually produce playing for them.

1257
01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:33,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, Pittmans is certainly in top that list. The other

1258
01:05:33,360 --> 01:05:35,320
Speaker 5: two I keep on coming back to the future for

1259
01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:38,480
Speaker 5: ir Franklin and Kenny more than second. Franklin has two

1260
01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:40,560
Speaker 5: years less than his deal, but there's an out this

1261
01:05:40,720 --> 01:05:44,480
Speaker 5: offseason that's pretty cheap from a dead cap hit. And

1262
01:05:44,600 --> 01:05:46,960
Speaker 5: then Kenny. You know, I don't know if to fit

1263
01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:49,080
Speaker 5: with a rumo is id AG just seemed like we

1264
01:05:49,160 --> 01:05:52,040
Speaker 5: didn't get the typical Kenny playmaking year sure that he

1265
01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:55,160
Speaker 5: that he's had now, granted, I mean depth a linebacker

1266
01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:58,920
Speaker 5: and corner are not stocked. You know, I was going

1267
01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:01,080
Speaker 5: to make stock like the shelves of grocery analogy right now,

1268
01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:02,480
Speaker 5: but I don't think they.

1269
01:06:02,120 --> 01:06:04,560
Speaker 1: They're pretty bare too right now. Yeah, although shout out

1270
01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:06,800
Speaker 1: to the safe Way at fifty six of Illinois. It

1271
01:06:06,960 --> 01:06:09,160
Speaker 1: was in fine form at seven to fifteen am.

1272
01:06:10,240 --> 01:06:12,000
Speaker 5: There you go. You and I shot there quite a

1273
01:06:12,040 --> 01:06:15,480
Speaker 5: lot at that safeway there from Xcellinois. So you know,

1274
01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:19,240
Speaker 5: I think you can make the case for restructures there.

1275
01:06:19,360 --> 01:06:22,400
Speaker 5: But you know, outright cutting of either player would leave

1276
01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:25,240
Speaker 5: quite the void. Now. You know, some might say, hey,

1277
01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:27,640
Speaker 5: Zay or you just need to you know, try and

1278
01:06:27,800 --> 01:06:30,240
Speaker 5: you know, go upgrade there and you know, get a corner.

1279
01:06:30,400 --> 01:06:32,480
Speaker 5: You save the Shaveria's war I s probably throw that

1280
01:06:32,560 --> 01:06:35,840
Speaker 5: in there as well. Rake. In terms of the offseason items,

1281
01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:38,320
Speaker 5: you know, I would assume by the combine, the Colts

1282
01:06:38,320 --> 01:06:40,680
Speaker 5: will have an answer on Shaverio's war playing football next year.

1283
01:06:41,120 --> 01:06:42,800
Speaker 5: I think he kind of mentioned he owes it to

1284
01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:45,600
Speaker 5: the team to make a decision there, So that's probably

1285
01:06:45,600 --> 01:06:48,200
Speaker 5: another news item. You know. They could wiggle around with

1286
01:06:48,280 --> 01:06:51,320
Speaker 5: some extensions for guys Quentin Nelson, you know, maybe even

1287
01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:53,680
Speaker 5: Buckner or Grover Stewart. That could open up a little

1288
01:06:53,680 --> 01:06:57,200
Speaker 5: bit of cap space, which I do think it's really necessary.

1289
01:06:57,240 --> 01:06:59,439
Speaker 5: When you start to crunch the numbers, their cap space

1290
01:06:59,480 --> 01:07:02,600
Speaker 5: can get pretty type pretty quick. So yeah, those other two.

1291
01:07:03,040 --> 01:07:05,080
Speaker 5: I would go with Michael Pittman Junior, and I would

1292
01:07:05,080 --> 01:07:06,920
Speaker 5: go with Kenny Moore's guys. I'm a little bit in

1293
01:07:07,040 --> 01:07:11,160
Speaker 5: question or excuse me, Pitvin first, Franklin been Kenny Moore

1294
01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:13,760
Speaker 5: as guys. I'm a little bit in question about just

1295
01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:16,320
Speaker 5: exactly what it looks like financially for them moving forward?

1296
01:07:16,440 --> 01:07:19,120
Speaker 1: All right, one for the better Nerdery, what sort of

1297
01:07:19,240 --> 01:07:23,160
Speaker 1: cap relief would the Colts get If Mooney says, hey

1298
01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:27,080
Speaker 1: I'm walking away, does that wipe everything away from the

1299
01:07:27,160 --> 01:07:29,960
Speaker 1: salary cap standpoint, does it fast forward everything to this year?

1300
01:07:30,560 --> 01:07:33,120
Speaker 1: How exactly do the numbers work in that scenario?

1301
01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:36,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, I need to double check it. I'm pretty sure

1302
01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:41,440
Speaker 5: it wipes away virtually all of it. You know, we

1303
01:07:41,560 --> 01:07:44,080
Speaker 5: haven't had I mean, I guess and luck is quite

1304
01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:46,640
Speaker 5: the one. But of course, you know, Jimmersay decided to

1305
01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:49,960
Speaker 5: send him packing with a nice money in that back pocket.

1306
01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:52,000
Speaker 5: So that is one that I would have to look

1307
01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:54,200
Speaker 5: up because you know, he has what two years left

1308
01:07:54,200 --> 01:07:55,480
Speaker 5: I believe in that deal. I think it was a

1309
01:07:55,520 --> 01:07:59,320
Speaker 5: three year contract originally. So yeah, and you know, I

1310
01:07:59,400 --> 01:08:01,440
Speaker 5: have the idea how all that would play out, But

1311
01:08:01,480 --> 01:08:02,880
Speaker 5: I think money would be the first to tell you.

1312
01:08:03,360 --> 01:08:05,440
Speaker 5: You know, he's done pretty good for himself from an

1313
01:08:05,520 --> 01:08:08,400
Speaker 5: NFL career standpoint, which I think is a factor at all. Yes,

1314
01:08:08,560 --> 01:08:10,840
Speaker 5: he's the former un drafted free agent. He won a

1315
01:08:10,880 --> 01:08:13,760
Speaker 5: Super Bowl with the Chiefs, made a Super Bowl with

1316
01:08:13,800 --> 01:08:16,240
Speaker 5: the forty nine ers, he is on his third contract.

1317
01:08:16,320 --> 01:08:18,759
Speaker 5: He's made great money. You know. So is that something

1318
01:08:18,800 --> 01:08:21,120
Speaker 5: that you know is an impact or decision here or

1319
01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:22,599
Speaker 5: a factor I should say in his decision.

1320
01:08:22,920 --> 01:08:25,840
Speaker 1: Thanks for the time, my friend. Figure I'll see at

1321
01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:30,160
Speaker 1: some point next week. I know I will on Tuesday afternoon.

01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:44,120
Speaker 1: me have made the trip. Last year a win against

1327
01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:48,680
Speaker 1: Boston College when the temperature was about the same as

1328
01:08:48,760 --> 01:08:53,519
Speaker 1: it is now, like freakishly cold. The year before, an

1329
01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:58,600
Speaker 1: empty campus on Christmas break and the Citadel got to

1339
01:09:32,240 --> 01:09:35,200
Speaker 1: now's probably the time. Because we got guests at one

1340
01:09:35,320 --> 01:09:38,240
Speaker 1: forty five, we got guessed at two fifteen, we got

Speaker 1: kind of liken him have him start on time. So

1344
01:09:46,920 --> 01:09:50,280
Speaker 1: three one seven, two, three nine, ten seventy or a

1345
01:09:50,320 --> 01:09:54,000
Speaker 1: tweet to me at Greg Restraw, you're listening to ninety

1346
01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:55,880
Speaker 1: three five and one oh seven five to the fan

1347
01:09:58,160 --> 01:10:03,320
Speaker 1: since you just heard JMV with former I you great Babeloffenberg.

1348
01:10:03,760 --> 01:10:05,720
Speaker 1: And to give you an idea of the way my

1349
01:10:05,920 --> 01:10:11,880
Speaker 1: mind works, Babe, would be just before the time that

1350
01:10:12,040 --> 01:10:15,439
Speaker 1: I kind of kept tracking, remembered names and knew what

1351
01:10:15,680 --> 01:10:17,960
Speaker 1: was going on in college football. See, he was there

1352
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:21,519
Speaker 1: in eighty one and eighty two Lee Corso's last two

1353
01:10:21,680 --> 01:10:24,240
Speaker 1: years as the head coach at IU put up some

1354
01:10:24,640 --> 01:10:27,799
Speaker 1: really good numbers in two years, set some passing records,

1355
01:10:27,840 --> 01:10:29,800
Speaker 1: and he was in Bloomington and then went on to

1356
01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:32,400
Speaker 1: be like a third string quarterback for the better part

1357
01:10:32,439 --> 01:10:35,080
Speaker 1: of eight or nine years in the National Football League

1358
01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:37,080
Speaker 1: and then begin to be kind of a Cowboys broadcaster

1359
01:10:37,240 --> 01:10:42,080
Speaker 1: and things like that. He was also the footage that

1360
01:10:42,439 --> 01:10:47,519
Speaker 1: was used as like the before picture in the John

1361
01:10:47,640 --> 01:10:52,400
Speaker 1: Werthe'm sixty Minutes piece that was really good and talked

1362
01:10:52,439 --> 01:10:56,800
Speaker 1: about documenting just how amazing this IU football trenderud is

1363
01:10:57,200 --> 01:10:59,599
Speaker 1: but Babe was like, hey, wait a minute, I threw

1364
01:10:59,640 --> 01:11:01,559
Speaker 1: three touchdowns in that game. It didn't throw a pick.

1365
01:11:01,680 --> 01:11:04,439
Speaker 1: That was a game against Ohio State. And so it's

1366
01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:05,960
Speaker 1: kind of the same point that I made with Dan

1367
01:11:06,080 --> 01:11:12,160
Speaker 1: Thompson an hour ago, saying, hey, yes, IU football has

1368
01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:15,640
Speaker 1: never been what it is now, but there have been

1369
01:11:15,760 --> 01:11:19,080
Speaker 1: some periods, in some moments when this wasn't like the

1370
01:11:19,320 --> 01:11:24,280
Speaker 1: worst football program in major college history. And so Babe

1371
01:11:24,439 --> 01:11:27,160
Speaker 1: was kind of of that ILK. And you heard the promo,

1372
01:11:27,680 --> 01:11:30,400
Speaker 1: John asking kind of the standard question of how does

1373
01:11:30,479 --> 01:11:34,680
Speaker 1: he translate at the next level, and he talks about accuracy.

1374
01:11:35,240 --> 01:11:40,320
Speaker 1: That accuracy was actually on display last night on The

1375
01:11:40,400 --> 01:11:44,599
Speaker 1: Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, they talked about breaking records.

1376
01:11:45,000 --> 01:11:50,479
Speaker 1: They basically use records that were I'm sure tricked up,

1377
01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:54,000
Speaker 1: souped up, etc. And now that vinyls like a thing

1378
01:11:54,040 --> 01:11:57,639
Speaker 1: I want to explain when I say records, they used

1379
01:11:57,680 --> 01:12:00,680
Speaker 1: them like clay pigeons. In case you haven't seen it yet,

1380
01:12:01,080 --> 01:12:06,400
Speaker 1: and Fernando hit eight in thirty seconds. There's your example

1381
01:12:07,120 --> 01:12:11,000
Speaker 1: of accuracy right there. Well in thinking about what we

1382
01:12:11,040 --> 01:12:12,800
Speaker 1: could talk about, and by the way, phone lines are

1383
01:12:12,840 --> 01:12:15,439
Speaker 1: open this segment, So if there's something you want to say.

1384
01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:18,800
Speaker 1: Feel free Now is the time phone line is open

1385
01:12:18,840 --> 01:12:22,759
Speaker 1: to you three one seven two three nine ten seventy.

1386
01:12:23,160 --> 01:12:25,439
Speaker 1: You can also use that same line to text into

1387
01:12:25,520 --> 01:12:29,280
Speaker 1: the show, and Eddie will be kind enough to relay

1388
01:12:29,360 --> 01:12:32,560
Speaker 1: those messages on the air and to me simultaneously. You

1389
01:12:32,600 --> 01:12:35,840
Speaker 1: always tweet to me at Greg Regstraw as well. I

1390
01:12:36,040 --> 01:12:39,160
Speaker 1: made an effort, not a great effort, but at least

1391
01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:41,840
Speaker 1: a small effort to get someone on the program today

1392
01:12:42,760 --> 01:12:46,200
Speaker 1: to talk a little NFL draft, because I do think

1393
01:12:46,280 --> 01:12:49,160
Speaker 1: that is gonna be the more captivating conversations we're gonna

1394
01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:53,240
Speaker 1: have between now and the end of April. Fernando Mendoza

1395
01:12:53,320 --> 01:12:55,880
Speaker 1: seems like a slam dunk, like he is going to

1396
01:12:55,920 --> 01:12:58,080
Speaker 1: be the number one pick. I even touched on earlier

1397
01:12:58,080 --> 01:13:01,400
Speaker 1: in the show. It's possible. I don't think they will,

1398
01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:05,360
Speaker 1: but it's possible the Raiders could trade the number one pick,

1399
01:13:05,800 --> 01:13:09,040
Speaker 1: not as some sort of nock to Mendoza, but just

1400
01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:12,559
Speaker 1: an acknowledgement of we have so many issues on this team.

1401
01:13:13,439 --> 01:13:16,040
Speaker 1: You need more of a haul, and if you think

1402
01:13:16,080 --> 01:13:19,320
Speaker 1: you're still gonna be great this year, then maybe you

1403
01:13:19,360 --> 01:13:24,160
Speaker 1: get the number one pick for next year. Again. As possible,

1404
01:13:24,640 --> 01:13:26,960
Speaker 1: but my guess would be the Raiders gonna hold that

1405
01:13:27,040 --> 01:13:30,320
Speaker 1: pick and they're gonna take Fernando Mendoza. If they would

1406
01:13:30,400 --> 01:13:34,200
Speaker 1: trade the pick, whomever would get that pick would also

1407
01:13:34,400 --> 01:13:39,080
Speaker 1: take Fernando Mendoza. So we'll talk about them. And clearly,

1408
01:13:39,600 --> 01:13:42,320
Speaker 1: given the fact that he was on fallin Good Morning America,

1409
01:13:42,600 --> 01:13:48,280
Speaker 1: Today's Show, etc. This kid has captivated a nationwide audience.

1410
01:13:49,240 --> 01:13:55,200
Speaker 1: But you're gonna hear Indiana University mention a lot in

1411
01:13:55,360 --> 01:13:58,479
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh the last week in in April, because that's where

1412
01:13:58,479 --> 01:14:01,160
Speaker 1: the NFL Draft is taking place. So I thought during

1413
01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:04,000
Speaker 1: the course of the break, I would just pull up

1414
01:14:04,439 --> 01:14:08,000
Speaker 1: as many and trust me, I'm not normally this person, Okay,

1415
01:14:08,920 --> 01:14:12,400
Speaker 1: Like if I look up NFL mock draft, I'm normally

1416
01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:15,559
Speaker 1: the guy that stops at thirty two. That numbers probably

1417
01:14:15,600 --> 01:14:17,560
Speaker 1: going to lower to somewhere in the mid forties this

1418
01:14:17,720 --> 01:14:22,080
Speaker 1: year because that's where the Indianapolis Colts will actually jump

1419
01:14:22,200 --> 01:14:24,760
Speaker 1: onto the board, all right, without having that first round pick.

1420
01:14:26,120 --> 01:14:28,160
Speaker 1: But I wanted to look at the seven round box,

1421
01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:30,840
Speaker 1: and I've looked at a couple so far, and I'm

1422
01:14:30,880 --> 01:14:34,439
Speaker 1: not going to read them to you. It's more of

1423
01:14:34,560 --> 01:14:40,400
Speaker 1: an overall quantity thing as to just how many Indiana

1424
01:14:40,520 --> 01:14:44,880
Speaker 1: hoo's your names are? Indiana who's your players? Will hear

1425
01:14:44,960 --> 01:14:49,680
Speaker 1: their names called on day one, on Day two or

1426
01:14:49,800 --> 01:14:52,240
Speaker 1: day three. Now, it seems a lot of folks think

1427
01:14:52,320 --> 01:14:55,519
Speaker 1: that Mendoza is going to be the only first round pick.

1428
01:14:56,920 --> 01:15:00,759
Speaker 1: But I go to one website and it has Elijah

1429
01:15:00,800 --> 01:15:05,280
Speaker 1: Surat as a second rumpet. It has di'angelo Pons, who

1430
01:15:05,360 --> 01:15:08,120
Speaker 1: did make it official today that saying, hey, I'm going

1431
01:15:08,160 --> 01:15:10,280
Speaker 1: to the draft, which everybody assumed it would be the case,

1432
01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:13,400
Speaker 1: and he should. I see him at pick forty nine.

1433
01:15:13,920 --> 01:15:19,120
Speaker 1: I see Carter Smith going to the Steelers at fifty two. Basically,

1434
01:15:19,640 --> 01:15:21,760
Speaker 1: in just kind of looking at a couple three of these,

1435
01:15:23,520 --> 01:15:29,200
Speaker 1: you're looking at five or six Indiana players going on

1436
01:15:29,320 --> 01:15:33,160
Speaker 1: the first two days of the draft, to where, yeah,

1437
01:15:33,240 --> 01:15:36,680
Speaker 1: Mendoz is going to be the headliner of Thursday, but

1438
01:15:36,960 --> 01:15:41,360
Speaker 1: Indiana may have as many players taken on Day two

1439
01:15:41,439 --> 01:15:45,960
Speaker 1: of the draft as anybody else, and several guys that'll

1440
01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:48,680
Speaker 1: be Day three. Eddie, it looks like you are one

1441
01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:50,040
Speaker 1: to join the conversation.

1442
01:15:50,400 --> 01:15:50,880
Speaker 2: Feel free.

1443
01:15:51,320 --> 01:15:54,720
Speaker 4: I would say that of those names, one to kind

1444
01:15:54,760 --> 01:15:57,320
Speaker 4: of scratch off the list, Carter Smith has already announced

1445
01:15:57,360 --> 01:15:59,720
Speaker 4: that he's going back to IU, so that's good for him.

1446
01:16:00,120 --> 01:16:02,000
Speaker 4: That's a huge kid for the Hoosiers because.

1447
01:16:02,360 --> 01:16:04,639
Speaker 1: He was a solid staple on the offensive line.

1448
01:16:04,680 --> 01:16:06,799
Speaker 4: The guy that I keep going back through just because

1449
01:16:07,400 --> 01:16:09,840
Speaker 4: I don't think the numbers will look good on paper.

1450
01:16:10,479 --> 01:16:13,080
Speaker 4: But d'An angela Pons is what the kids call a gamer,

1451
01:16:13,560 --> 01:16:16,040
Speaker 4: Like he goes out there and he just bawls on Saturdays.

1452
01:16:16,560 --> 01:16:18,960
Speaker 4: And he's a guy that plays bigger than his size.

1453
01:16:19,000 --> 01:16:21,960
Speaker 4: He reminds me a lot of kennymore like Kenny's a

1454
01:16:22,040 --> 01:16:24,720
Speaker 4: smaller guy. Sure they both are five to nine, but

1455
01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:27,920
Speaker 4: d angel Pons is incredibly physical, physical, He's always in

1456
01:16:27,960 --> 01:16:30,760
Speaker 4: the right spot. He knows how to make plays. And

1457
01:16:30,880 --> 01:16:34,120
Speaker 4: I think the same Aidan Fisher as well. Aiden Fisher

1458
01:16:34,200 --> 01:16:35,800
Speaker 4: is a guy that will again he's gonna be a

1459
01:16:35,840 --> 01:16:36,400
Speaker 4: third day pick.

1460
01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:39,960
Speaker 1: I have thought in watching this football team that we

1461
01:16:40,040 --> 01:16:46,080
Speaker 1: were looking at nine to ten players drafted. And again,

1462
01:16:46,800 --> 01:16:50,759
Speaker 1: pardon me for typing, do you have like some interstitial music,

1463
01:16:51,240 --> 01:16:54,519
Speaker 1: like some background piano or jazz. Should have something like

1464
01:16:54,600 --> 01:16:57,320
Speaker 1: that or something along those lines, just to cover me typing.

1465
01:16:57,680 --> 01:16:58,680
Speaker 2: I should have one like that.

1466
01:16:58,920 --> 01:17:02,200
Speaker 1: It won't take long to type this up and god

1467
01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:06,840
Speaker 1: bless Wikipedia. List of NFL draft picks from Wikipedia because

1468
01:17:06,880 --> 01:17:10,479
Speaker 1: I know there is a page that is dedicated to this,

1469
01:17:10,880 --> 01:17:11,920
Speaker 1: so I knew how to type.

1470
01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:12,480
Speaker 2: It it immediately.

1471
01:17:12,840 --> 01:17:16,920
Speaker 1: So I didn't have the long list of dead air

1472
01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:20,599
Speaker 1: that I thought I would. So if I said ten

1473
01:17:21,720 --> 01:17:24,640
Speaker 1: Indiana players, in fact, you know what, just for the

1474
01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:28,479
Speaker 1: sake of the years, the way these picks have been bundled,

1475
01:17:29,520 --> 01:17:35,639
Speaker 1: Let's say Indiana has nine players drafted in the NFL draft.

1476
01:17:36,640 --> 01:17:40,640
Speaker 1: That would equal what they have had drafted in the

1477
01:17:40,840 --> 01:17:49,200
Speaker 1: last nine seasons. They had a player drafted five years running,

1478
01:17:49,240 --> 01:17:53,880
Speaker 1: actually six years running twenty seventeen through twenty twenty two,

1479
01:17:54,720 --> 01:17:56,640
Speaker 1: did not have a player drafted in twenty three or

1480
01:17:56,680 --> 01:18:00,320
Speaker 1: twenty four. Had two players drafted last year, both by

1481
01:18:00,360 --> 01:18:03,040
Speaker 1: the San Francis School forty nine ers, Curtis Rourke being

1482
01:18:03,120 --> 01:18:05,040
Speaker 1: one of those, a seventh round pick CJ. West, the

1483
01:18:05,120 --> 01:18:08,080
Speaker 1: other one being a fourth round pick. Eddie, off the

1484
01:18:08,240 --> 01:18:11,200
Speaker 1: top of your head, you know the last time the

1485
01:18:11,240 --> 01:18:13,880
Speaker 1: Indiana had a first round pick, first round pick? I

1486
01:18:13,960 --> 01:18:17,760
Speaker 1: do not, Okay, Eddie, you are howled again? Remind me,

1487
01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:20,120
Speaker 1: I want to say you're twenty eight twenty nine. I

1488
01:18:20,160 --> 01:18:23,479
Speaker 1: turned twenty eight in September. You turn twenty eight in September. Yeah,

1489
01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:26,439
Speaker 1: so you're currently twenty seventh. Yes, okay. The last time

1490
01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:29,479
Speaker 1: that Indiana had first round pick, you were not yet born.

1491
01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:35,800
Speaker 1: It was my senior year of high school nineteen ninety four,

1492
01:18:36,560 --> 01:18:39,360
Speaker 1: Thomas Lewis. And yes, here is a name that you

1493
01:18:39,439 --> 01:18:42,960
Speaker 1: will want to know, probably not one that you have

1494
01:18:43,120 --> 01:18:48,040
Speaker 1: heard of before, but Corbick Davis. You will hear this

1495
01:18:48,280 --> 01:18:51,000
Speaker 1: name brought up at some point in time in April

1496
01:18:51,960 --> 01:18:57,120
Speaker 1: because he is the last and only until Fernando Mendoza

1497
01:18:57,760 --> 01:19:04,080
Speaker 1: eighty eight years later, to be the number one overall

1498
01:19:04,200 --> 01:19:10,599
Speaker 1: pick in the draft. Corbett was drafted by the Cleveland Rams.

1499
01:19:11,840 --> 01:19:15,960
Speaker 1: The Rams moved to la in the late forties. It's

1500
01:19:16,040 --> 01:19:18,760
Speaker 1: been a minute since Indiana had a number one pick

1501
01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:21,559
Speaker 1: in the draft. That is going to be Mendoza. But again,

1502
01:19:22,120 --> 01:19:27,200
Speaker 1: just an illustration of just how jaw dropping the six

1503
01:19:27,320 --> 01:19:31,519
Speaker 1: success of this Indiana football program has become. I think

1504
01:19:31,600 --> 01:19:35,320
Speaker 1: they will have as many draft picks this year as

1505
01:19:35,400 --> 01:19:39,200
Speaker 1: they have had in the last nine years. It's kind

1506
01:19:39,200 --> 01:19:42,360
Speaker 1: of the equivalent of winning his many bowl games in

1507
01:19:42,479 --> 01:19:47,120
Speaker 1: the last nineteen days as they had in program history

1508
01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:48,599
Speaker 1: leading up to them.

1509
01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:52,320
Speaker 4: I will be fascinated or interested in watching these guys

1510
01:19:52,439 --> 01:19:55,800
Speaker 4: transition from college to the NFL, just because I've talked

1511
01:19:55,840 --> 01:19:58,559
Speaker 4: about this with Jake that Signetti has a pro style

1512
01:19:58,760 --> 01:20:01,799
Speaker 4: approach to the game and how they go about preparing

1513
01:20:01,880 --> 01:20:03,880
Speaker 4: for the game, and how about he goes out and

1514
01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:07,280
Speaker 4: tries to find players for specific roles within the offense

1515
01:20:07,680 --> 01:20:10,080
Speaker 4: and the defense, and those players know not to play

1516
01:20:10,160 --> 01:20:13,439
Speaker 4: outside of what kind of skill setting capabilities they have.

1517
01:20:13,640 --> 01:20:16,200
Speaker 4: And so does that lead to more players like Indiana

1518
01:20:16,479 --> 01:20:20,000
Speaker 4: having an easier transition to the NFL and they're able

1519
01:20:20,040 --> 01:20:21,920
Speaker 4: to step in right away and have success.

1520
01:20:21,800 --> 01:20:24,000
Speaker 1: Because they're coach like a pro. Yeah, yeah, you would

1521
01:20:24,040 --> 01:20:25,840
Speaker 1: think so. And again I think that's also why you

1522
01:20:25,920 --> 01:20:27,400
Speaker 1: see a lot of guys that are second and third

1523
01:20:27,439 --> 01:20:29,920
Speaker 1: day picks, where you have guys that don't have those

1524
01:20:30,439 --> 01:20:35,479
Speaker 1: amazing measurables, but you hope they are solid pros. I

1525
01:20:35,600 --> 01:20:37,880
Speaker 1: think Indiana have a lot of guys that are like them.

1526
01:20:38,080 --> 01:20:42,680
Speaker 1: All right, we will make the transition from football to basketball. Well,

1527
01:20:42,720 --> 01:20:45,680
Speaker 1: this guy could talk both, but we'll focus on basketball.

1528
01:20:46,600 --> 01:20:49,720
Speaker 1: Time to get your brackets ready. We're seven weeks out,

1529
01:20:50,320 --> 01:20:53,559
Speaker 1: but you can start thinking of exactly who is going

1530
01:20:53,760 --> 01:20:59,920
Speaker 1: where and just how many. If anybody not named Perdue

1531
01:21:00,600 --> 01:21:03,000
Speaker 1: is going to the field of sixty eight, Jerry Palm

1532
01:21:03,040 --> 01:21:05,360
Speaker 1: will help us break that down when we come back.

1533
01:21:05,640 --> 01:21:09,679
Speaker 1: Greg Regstraw in for jQuery, and you're listening to ninety

1534
01:21:09,760 --> 01:21:14,960
Speaker 1: three five and one oh seven five the Fan, a

1535
01:21:15,200 --> 01:21:19,000
Speaker 1: song that this gentleman heard, probably ad nauseum for the

1536
01:21:19,080 --> 01:21:22,679
Speaker 1: last several years as the bracket expert for CBS Sports.

1537
01:21:23,200 --> 01:21:25,200
Speaker 1: Maybe this is the song that he heard when he

1538
01:21:25,320 --> 01:21:28,000
Speaker 1: finally got his new RV to leave Owensboro, Kentucky, a

1539
01:21:28,080 --> 01:21:31,280
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago. I'll let him explain. Jerry Palm

1540
01:21:31,520 --> 01:21:35,080
Speaker 1: palmbrackets dot Com joins us on the Java House. Peel

1541
01:21:35,240 --> 01:21:39,000
Speaker 1: and poor guest Line still working them brackets, but also

1542
01:21:39,520 --> 01:21:43,080
Speaker 1: literally driving across America as we speak. How are you,

1543
01:21:43,160 --> 01:21:43,559
Speaker 1: my friend?

1544
01:21:44,680 --> 01:21:48,320
Speaker 6: Well, I guess I'm in pretty good shape because we

1545
01:21:48,479 --> 01:21:52,400
Speaker 6: are currently living in Montgomery, Alabama a couple of weeks

1546
01:21:53,120 --> 01:21:54,960
Speaker 6: and we're south of the ice storm.

1547
01:21:55,960 --> 01:21:58,320
Speaker 3: True, like the northern part of the state may.

1548
01:21:58,320 --> 01:22:01,560
Speaker 6: Not do as well, but we're far enough south that

1549
01:22:01,720 --> 01:22:03,840
Speaker 6: we've managed to avoid the ice storm. So I guess

1550
01:22:03,880 --> 01:22:06,600
Speaker 6: that's good. I was gonna say cold that week, but not,

1551
01:22:07,800 --> 01:22:09,639
Speaker 6: We're not going to be scraping ice off the RV.

1552
01:22:10,560 --> 01:22:13,160
Speaker 1: How has your it used to be? The old staying

1553
01:22:13,320 --> 01:22:17,439
Speaker 1: was one was wonder Indiana. You're literally wondering America other

1554
01:22:17,600 --> 01:22:20,120
Speaker 1: than having like a breakdown of Owen's World, Kentucky. How's

1555
01:22:20,160 --> 01:22:20,800
Speaker 1: it going so far?

1556
01:22:22,200 --> 01:22:24,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, we just left, you know.

1557
01:22:24,680 --> 01:22:27,200
Speaker 6: The first time we left with the RV was the

1558
01:22:27,280 --> 01:22:29,559
Speaker 6: beginning of the month, and we didn't get any farther

1559
01:22:29,640 --> 01:22:32,639
Speaker 6: than Evansville before we had a problem. We spent three

1560
01:22:32,720 --> 01:22:35,280
Speaker 6: days there in Owensboro and took a while to get

1561
01:22:35,320 --> 01:22:38,040
Speaker 6: the truck fixed. The RV itself was fine, but the

1562
01:22:38,080 --> 01:22:41,760
Speaker 6: truck that we're pulling it with was well, being uncooperative

1563
01:22:42,080 --> 01:22:45,360
Speaker 6: for really about the first week of this adventure. But

1564
01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:48,640
Speaker 6: it seems to be okay now. We'll see when we

1565
01:22:48,720 --> 01:22:51,559
Speaker 6: hook it up and start rolling again here another couple

1566
01:22:51,560 --> 01:22:51,920
Speaker 6: of weeks.

1567
01:22:52,360 --> 01:22:55,600
Speaker 1: If nothing else, it gave you time to listen to

1568
01:22:55,720 --> 01:23:00,679
Speaker 1: a friend of yours recommendation. How was the world's largest

1569
01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:03,280
Speaker 1: barbecue buffet? The Moonlight Barbecue?

1570
01:23:04,200 --> 01:23:04,320
Speaker 5: Oh?

1571
01:23:04,400 --> 01:23:08,360
Speaker 6: But yeah, that was lovely. Yeah that was great. It's uh,

1572
01:23:08,920 --> 01:23:10,479
Speaker 6: you know, I don't know, I'm not a big fan

1573
01:23:10,560 --> 01:23:12,240
Speaker 6: of buffets because you never know what you're really going

1574
01:23:12,320 --> 01:23:14,760
Speaker 6: to get. But everything was really good. I would go

1575
01:23:14,840 --> 01:23:15,559
Speaker 6: back there in a minute.

1576
01:23:15,800 --> 01:23:18,959
Speaker 1: All right, good to know. All right, so let's talk brackets,

1577
01:23:19,080 --> 01:23:22,439
Speaker 1: shall we, and let's work our way up the food sharts,

1578
01:23:22,479 --> 01:23:25,000
Speaker 1: so to speak. When it comes to the state of Indiana.

1579
01:23:25,560 --> 01:23:28,200
Speaker 1: Has Notre Dame because of their injuries and overall play,

1580
01:23:28,720 --> 01:23:31,160
Speaker 1: do they merit conversation at this point?

1581
01:23:32,120 --> 01:23:35,360
Speaker 6: Nope, not yet. Maybe you know, they get healthy and

1582
01:23:35,360 --> 01:23:37,960
Speaker 6: they get better, we can talk about them, but we're

1583
01:23:38,640 --> 01:23:42,040
Speaker 6: we're probably gonna be getting wait in the season before

1584
01:23:42,080 --> 01:23:42,679
Speaker 6: that happens.

1585
01:23:42,760 --> 01:23:44,000
Speaker 3: If it happens, all.

1586
01:23:43,960 --> 01:23:46,920
Speaker 1: Right, So let's work our way up. Butler's picked up

1587
01:23:46,920 --> 01:23:50,439
Speaker 1: a couple of wins. Where do Butler's chances look like

1588
01:23:50,560 --> 01:23:50,880
Speaker 1: right now?

1589
01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:55,160
Speaker 6: They need to do more. You can't rule them out.

1590
01:23:55,400 --> 01:23:58,040
Speaker 6: I'd say they're in better shape than Notre Dame. But

1591
01:23:58,280 --> 01:24:02,280
Speaker 6: Butler's got to the depth of quality in the Big

1592
01:24:02,400 --> 01:24:04,240
Speaker 6: East is not like it is in other league. It's

1593
01:24:04,439 --> 01:24:08,320
Speaker 6: only because it's smaller than the other major conferences. But

1594
01:24:08,439 --> 01:24:10,920
Speaker 6: they have to take advantage of those opportunities when they

1595
01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:13,720
Speaker 6: present themselves, and they don't really have a lot of

1596
01:24:13,840 --> 01:24:17,719
Speaker 6: margin for error in terms of taking losses that they shouldn't.

1597
01:24:18,720 --> 01:24:21,160
Speaker 1: In your latest bracket, how many Big East teams do

1598
01:24:21,200 --> 01:24:21,400
Speaker 1: you have.

1599
01:24:23,040 --> 01:24:23,240
Speaker 5: Four?

1600
01:24:23,800 --> 01:24:23,920
Speaker 2: Ki?

1601
01:24:24,520 --> 01:24:26,479
Speaker 1: I was going to say three, So four is actually

1602
01:24:26,560 --> 01:24:29,960
Speaker 1: encouraging sign because frankly, that gives Butler more chances to

1603
01:24:30,120 --> 01:24:33,280
Speaker 1: win games against teams that might be in the tournament.

1604
01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:37,240
Speaker 1: All right, now, let's get to the Aueghana Hoosiers. Where

1605
01:24:37,320 --> 01:24:40,040
Speaker 1: do they stand at this point? Because they are starting

1606
01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:42,559
Speaker 1: to play their way, not starting to they are playing

1607
01:24:42,560 --> 01:24:45,080
Speaker 1: their way in the wrong direction. Would you have them

1608
01:24:45,120 --> 01:24:46,240
Speaker 1: in the field today?

1609
01:24:46,720 --> 01:24:48,560
Speaker 7: No, No, I don't have them in.

1610
01:24:49,360 --> 01:24:53,040
Speaker 6: They're not first four out, They're not too far off

1611
01:24:53,120 --> 01:24:55,760
Speaker 6: that list. But no, they've got some work to do.

1612
01:24:55,880 --> 01:24:59,000
Speaker 6: And in general, their problem is just the lack of

1613
01:24:59,080 --> 01:25:02,759
Speaker 6: quality win you know, their records not horrible or anything

1614
01:25:02,840 --> 01:25:04,280
Speaker 6: like that. They just haven't found a way to beat

1615
01:25:04,320 --> 01:25:06,439
Speaker 6: the teams they need to beat to find themselves in

1616
01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:06,840
Speaker 6: the field.

1617
01:25:07,400 --> 01:25:10,800
Speaker 1: Same question about Butler. How many Big ten teams do

1618
01:25:10,920 --> 01:25:16,080
Speaker 1: you have dancing as we speak? I believe it's ten, okay,

1619
01:25:16,240 --> 01:25:19,040
Speaker 1: And again in super conferences you get more of that.

1620
01:25:19,160 --> 01:25:21,519
Speaker 1: And again that's the thing with this Indiana team is

1621
01:25:21,640 --> 01:25:25,360
Speaker 1: that again you know, the opportunities are there, they've just

1622
01:25:25,439 --> 01:25:27,599
Speaker 1: not shown us anything in the last two three weeks.

1623
01:25:28,000 --> 01:25:30,800
Speaker 1: That tell us. They're going to take advantage of set opportunities.

1624
01:25:31,760 --> 01:25:35,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, well it's I mean, really the opportunities they had

1625
01:25:35,280 --> 01:25:37,200
Speaker 6: a non conference play, they didn't really take advantage of

1626
01:25:37,640 --> 01:25:42,400
Speaker 6: fair particularly either. I mean, they're best win escapes me

1627
01:25:42,479 --> 01:25:44,600
Speaker 6: at the moment, but it was not a team in

1628
01:25:44,640 --> 01:25:47,960
Speaker 6: the field, so you know, I mean, you need to

1629
01:25:48,000 --> 01:25:49,240
Speaker 6: be able to show that you can beat teams that

1630
01:25:49,280 --> 01:25:50,760
Speaker 6: are in the field, and the Big ten will give

1631
01:25:50,840 --> 01:25:53,320
Speaker 6: them plenty of chances to do that, but they have

1632
01:25:53,400 --> 01:25:54,479
Speaker 6: to take advantage of them.

1633
01:25:54,920 --> 01:25:57,840
Speaker 1: Paulmbrackets dot com is where you can find his work again.

1634
01:25:57,960 --> 01:26:00,639
Speaker 1: Jerry Palm joining us here on the job House peeling

1635
01:26:00,680 --> 01:26:03,400
Speaker 1: poor guest line, Greg Rakestraw and for j Query here

1636
01:26:03,479 --> 01:26:05,519
Speaker 1: on ninety three to five and one seven five of

1637
01:26:05,560 --> 01:26:09,320
Speaker 1: the Fan. No such issue with your Boilers. We know

1638
01:26:09,439 --> 01:26:12,400
Speaker 1: there will be dancing. They did just losing against UCLA

1639
01:26:13,160 --> 01:26:16,479
Speaker 1: one seed, two seed worthy of the Boilers right now.

1640
01:26:17,800 --> 01:26:18,599
Speaker 3: I have them as the two.

1641
01:26:18,720 --> 01:26:21,080
Speaker 6: They were a two before the loss. There's still a two,

1642
01:26:22,080 --> 01:26:24,640
Speaker 6: and that's due in part to the fact that they

1643
01:26:24,960 --> 01:26:28,599
Speaker 6: know built up a lot of cushion, if you will,

1644
01:26:29,160 --> 01:26:33,360
Speaker 6: with their really strong non conference play. UCOA is not

1645
01:26:33,439 --> 01:26:36,240
Speaker 6: a terrible team. They're a bubble team, so there are

1646
01:26:36,280 --> 01:26:39,640
Speaker 6: worse losses than that on the road, and we were

1647
01:26:39,640 --> 01:26:41,240
Speaker 6: out there for that. My wife and I went out

1648
01:26:41,280 --> 01:26:44,920
Speaker 6: to see the the LA doubleheader and that was two

1649
01:26:45,479 --> 01:26:47,880
Speaker 6: good challenges for Purdue and really should have won the

1650
01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:52,439
Speaker 6: second one, but a couple of uncharacteristic Braden Smith turnovers

1651
01:26:52,520 --> 01:26:55,080
Speaker 6: late and end up coming away with a loss.

1652
01:26:55,600 --> 01:26:58,639
Speaker 1: This is, I guess, maybe sadly of a metrics question,

1653
01:26:58,800 --> 01:27:01,040
Speaker 1: but it's frankly more of an eye question than a

1654
01:27:01,120 --> 01:27:04,439
Speaker 1: metrics question. But again, as a Boilermaker, which does not

1655
01:27:04,560 --> 01:27:08,040
Speaker 1: affect Jerry's predictions, but he's a very proud Purdue alum.

1656
01:27:10,360 --> 01:27:13,519
Speaker 1: What sort of seed do they need? In other words,

1657
01:27:13,960 --> 01:27:17,240
Speaker 1: what is the difference for Purdue between being a one seed,

1658
01:27:17,640 --> 01:27:21,280
Speaker 1: a two seed, a three seed, et cetera, because they

1659
01:27:21,400 --> 01:27:22,519
Speaker 1: just have so much experience.

1660
01:27:23,960 --> 01:27:28,600
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think if they're a top three seed, what

1661
01:27:28,760 --> 01:27:30,920
Speaker 6: you get to forward your first round game is usually

1662
01:27:31,000 --> 01:27:34,559
Speaker 6: somebody that's basically the same as you with a different

1663
01:27:34,640 --> 01:27:36,280
Speaker 6: number next to them, or your second game that is,

1664
01:27:36,520 --> 01:27:39,400
Speaker 6: so you really want to be your two or three

1665
01:27:39,560 --> 01:27:42,760
Speaker 6: to give yourself or no worse than that, to give

1666
01:27:42,760 --> 01:27:45,280
Speaker 6: yourself a pretty good path to a final four and

1667
01:27:45,360 --> 01:27:45,880
Speaker 6: Elite eight.

1668
01:27:47,600 --> 01:27:50,360
Speaker 1: All right, So if produ's not a one seed, who

1669
01:27:50,400 --> 01:27:51,519
Speaker 1: are your one seeds? Right now?

1670
01:27:53,479 --> 01:28:01,799
Speaker 6: The one seeds are Houston's Duke Arizona, but not Houston

1671
01:28:01,880 --> 01:28:03,040
Speaker 6: Arizona duke.

1672
01:28:04,360 --> 01:28:06,320
Speaker 3: Gosh On, I had a brain cramp.

1673
01:28:08,360 --> 01:28:10,320
Speaker 6: It's awesome.

1674
01:28:10,320 --> 01:28:12,960
Speaker 7: I'm so sorry, Okay, Arizona.

1675
01:28:14,240 --> 01:28:16,360
Speaker 1: Arizona Duke. Nebraska and Michigan.

1676
01:28:16,080 --> 01:28:19,960
Speaker 6: Right, Nebraska, Michigan, Yes, two Big ten teams. Why am

1677
01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:21,080
Speaker 6: I drawing a blank on them?

1678
01:28:21,520 --> 01:28:21,720
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1679
01:28:21,880 --> 01:28:24,479
Speaker 1: Because you would. You would never say Nebraska before now

1680
01:28:24,640 --> 01:28:27,240
Speaker 1: always say about Indiana football, were you'd say it about Nebraska.

1681
01:28:27,400 --> 01:28:31,040
Speaker 1: So their record speaks for themselves. But in terms of

1682
01:28:31,120 --> 01:28:35,479
Speaker 1: the elements of their sheet, their team sheet, what about

1683
01:28:35,560 --> 01:28:38,920
Speaker 1: Nebraska jumps off the page at you. Well, they've done well.

1684
01:28:39,760 --> 01:28:41,599
Speaker 6: They did well in non conference play, but they played

1685
01:28:41,600 --> 01:28:45,160
Speaker 6: a relatively poor non conference schedule, easily the worst non

1686
01:28:45,200 --> 01:28:48,280
Speaker 6: conference schedule of anybody in the top sixteen of this bracket.

1687
01:28:48,960 --> 01:28:51,360
Speaker 6: It's in the two hundreds. So it took a while

1688
01:28:51,520 --> 01:28:55,000
Speaker 6: for them to climb up here. But obviously they've been

1689
01:28:55,040 --> 01:28:58,880
Speaker 6: really good in conference play. The win of Illinois, you know,

1690
01:28:59,040 --> 01:29:02,639
Speaker 6: really got everybody's attention. But you know, they beat Michigan

1691
01:29:02,720 --> 01:29:06,599
Speaker 6: State at home. It's this is just a remarkable story.

1692
01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:08,599
Speaker 6: I don't know, it's way too early to say if

1693
01:29:08,600 --> 01:29:12,640
Speaker 6: they're the Indiana football of this basketball season, but just

1694
01:29:12,720 --> 01:29:15,080
Speaker 6: as someone who's been around the Big Ten, you know,

1695
01:29:15,200 --> 01:29:18,880
Speaker 6: all my life, the thought of Indiana football being a

1696
01:29:19,000 --> 01:29:22,640
Speaker 6: national champion in Nebraska basketball right threatening to be a

1697
01:29:22,720 --> 01:29:25,960
Speaker 6: number one seed as a culture shock to say the

1698
01:29:26,040 --> 01:29:27,000
Speaker 6: leasast the.

1699
01:29:27,080 --> 01:29:30,200
Speaker 1: World is officially on its ear at this point because

1700
01:29:30,200 --> 01:29:32,160
Speaker 1: of those two things. If I'm before I let you go,

1701
01:29:32,560 --> 01:29:35,120
Speaker 1: this is not an Indiana team, but there does close

1702
01:29:35,160 --> 01:29:37,680
Speaker 1: as you can be a lot of Indiana elements to it.

1703
01:29:38,560 --> 01:29:43,639
Speaker 1: You know, the gap widens further between Power conference teams.

1704
01:29:44,040 --> 01:29:45,680
Speaker 1: There really isn't much of a thing as a mid

1705
01:29:45,800 --> 01:29:49,200
Speaker 1: major anymore. You're either a several bid league or you're

1706
01:29:49,240 --> 01:29:52,400
Speaker 1: a one bid league. Yeah, miam of Ohio is twenty

1707
01:29:52,479 --> 01:29:55,200
Speaker 1: and zero going into the weekend. How do you have

1708
01:29:55,400 --> 01:29:57,120
Speaker 1: them in your ratings? As of now?

1709
01:29:58,080 --> 01:30:01,320
Speaker 6: They would not be in that large team but they're

1710
01:30:01,800 --> 01:30:04,800
Speaker 6: about as high as you can be without being among

1711
01:30:04,880 --> 01:30:08,560
Speaker 6: the at large teams in the bracket. So they're like,

1712
01:30:08,680 --> 01:30:11,840
Speaker 6: that's the twelve seed eleventeen twelve seeds thereabouts.

1713
01:30:13,200 --> 01:30:15,280
Speaker 1: And because of the fact that it's nothing but league

1714
01:30:15,320 --> 01:30:18,040
Speaker 1: games left. Like for let's let's say they run the

1715
01:30:18,120 --> 01:30:21,160
Speaker 1: table and they lose the MAC Tournament, would they be

1716
01:30:21,240 --> 01:30:24,400
Speaker 1: in the at large conversation or no matter what they do,

1717
01:30:25,200 --> 01:30:29,400
Speaker 1: is everything about what happens in Cleveland and March for them, it's.

1718
01:30:29,520 --> 01:30:32,679
Speaker 6: Probably everything that happens for them. It's going to happen

1719
01:30:32,720 --> 01:30:35,320
Speaker 6: in Cleveland. It's I don't know, it's it's going to

1720
01:30:35,360 --> 01:30:38,120
Speaker 6: be really hard if they're oh, I don't know, we'll

1721
01:30:38,120 --> 01:30:40,280
Speaker 6: say thirty three and one or whatever that number ends

1722
01:30:40,360 --> 01:30:43,439
Speaker 6: up being. But they're not going to have a win

1723
01:30:43,560 --> 01:30:46,600
Speaker 6: over a team that's anywhere near the bracket except for

1724
01:30:46,680 --> 01:30:48,880
Speaker 6: the team that wins their league in the MAC sure

1725
01:30:49,160 --> 01:30:51,320
Speaker 6: you know that's that They're not going to have an

1726
01:30:51,320 --> 01:30:53,400
Speaker 6: at large quality win. They're not going to have anything

1727
01:30:53,479 --> 01:30:57,000
Speaker 6: close to an at large quality win, and boy, the

1728
01:30:57,000 --> 01:30:59,640
Speaker 6: committee have a lot to talk about if that unfortunate

1729
01:31:00,240 --> 01:31:01,639
Speaker 6: uh situation happens.

1730
01:31:02,240 --> 01:31:04,680
Speaker 1: Palmbrackets dot com is where you can find him or

1731
01:31:04,720 --> 01:31:06,920
Speaker 1: in an RV park near you. As he is wondering

1732
01:31:07,000 --> 01:31:10,519
Speaker 1: the globe and as he states, south of the ice storm,

1733
01:31:10,600 --> 01:31:14,000
Speaker 1: which means he's significantly south of here. Thanks for the time,

1734
01:31:14,080 --> 01:31:15,280
Speaker 1: my friend will catch up real soon.

1735
01:31:16,120 --> 01:31:17,280
Speaker 6: All right, stay safe up there.

1736
01:31:17,439 --> 01:31:21,680
Speaker 1: You got a buddy, Jerry Palm again of Palmbrackets dot Com.

1737
01:31:22,920 --> 01:31:25,479
Speaker 1: By the way, he has Butler in his first four

1738
01:31:25,640 --> 01:31:28,519
Speaker 1: out now that was as of this Monday, and they

1739
01:31:28,560 --> 01:31:31,160
Speaker 1: didn't do anything to hurt themselves by beating to Paul.

1740
01:31:31,479 --> 01:31:34,280
Speaker 1: Speaking of Butler, they play Marquette and again Marquette has

1741
01:31:34,360 --> 01:31:38,120
Speaker 1: really struggled this year that game. You know, it's not

1742
01:31:38,280 --> 01:31:41,120
Speaker 1: down the hall, maybe it's over here one of the

1743
01:31:41,200 --> 01:31:45,760
Speaker 1: side production studios. Wherever the studios of Fuego ninety two

1744
01:31:45,880 --> 01:31:49,200
Speaker 1: point seven are, they are in this building and that's

1745
01:31:49,200 --> 01:31:52,360
Speaker 1: where you can hear Mark Minner and Nick Gardner tonight

1746
01:31:52,760 --> 01:31:56,599
Speaker 1: pacers here at six thirty. In terms of the pregame coverage,

1747
01:31:57,000 --> 01:32:00,799

1750
01:32:07,640 --> 01:32:09,880
Speaker 1: But there's something you want to talk about now is

1751
01:32:09,960 --> 01:32:14,000
Speaker 1: the time three one seven two three nine ten seven zero.

1752
01:32:14,360 --> 01:32:17,240
Speaker 1: You're listening to the fan Greg Raikesraw filling in for

1753
01:32:17,360 --> 01:32:23,280

1760
01:32:41,960 --> 01:32:43,960

1761
01:32:44,439 --> 01:32:47,640
Speaker 1: because he is at Rally House and my guests would be.

1762
01:32:48,400 --> 01:32:52,679
Speaker 1: There's just a little bit of Indiana. Come remember Billy

1763
01:32:52,720 --> 01:32:55,040
Speaker 1: yet that he's looking to push h during the course

1764
01:32:55,280 --> 01:32:57,800
Speaker 1: of his three hour tour there. So if you've got

1765
01:32:57,880 --> 01:33:00,320
Speaker 1: something you want to say, now is the time you

1766
01:33:00,320 --> 01:33:02,679
Speaker 1: got about ten or so minutes to get to your telephone, calls,

1767
01:33:02,680 --> 01:33:06,840
Speaker 1: your tweets, your text, et cetera. Three, one, seven, ten,

1768
01:33:07,040 --> 01:33:08,400
Speaker 1: seventy is the way you get a hold of me

1769
01:33:08,720 --> 01:33:11,960
Speaker 1: on two of those. Joe is nice enough to call in.

1770
01:33:12,439 --> 01:33:13,400
Speaker 1: Good afternoon, Joe.

1771
01:33:13,479 --> 01:33:13,840
Speaker 5: How are you.

1772
01:33:15,160 --> 01:33:17,479
Speaker 8: Oh, I'm doing great, Greg, how are you?

1773
01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:18,559
Speaker 1: I'm good, sir?

1774
01:33:20,000 --> 01:33:21,360
Speaker 5: Hey, Hey, Yeah.

1775
01:33:21,360 --> 01:33:26,360
Speaker 8: I've been watching the Pacers play, you know, and I

1776
01:33:26,520 --> 01:33:29,960
Speaker 8: still love them. It's exciting. But I've got a question

1777
01:33:30,240 --> 01:33:33,280
Speaker 8: for you. You know, I see math running on the fence,

1778
01:33:34,000 --> 01:33:36,800
Speaker 8: and uh, how much do.

1779
01:33:37,040 --> 01:33:39,479
Speaker 5: They communicate with him?

1780
01:33:40,200 --> 01:33:42,200
Speaker 8: As far as him being trade.

1781
01:33:41,960 --> 01:33:46,400
Speaker 1: Bay right now, I would guarantee you that conversation's happening.

1782
01:33:46,840 --> 01:33:50,000
Speaker 1: And again, I think it's going to be what can

1783
01:33:50,080 --> 01:33:52,960
Speaker 1: they get for him if they made a move now

1784
01:33:53,600 --> 01:33:55,960
Speaker 1: do they think they would get more of a haul

1785
01:33:56,720 --> 01:33:59,240
Speaker 1: if it were a sign in trade during the off season.

1786
01:33:59,800 --> 01:34:03,640
Speaker 1: I think everything is going to be what benefits the

1787
01:34:03,720 --> 01:34:07,400
Speaker 1: team most. And secondarily, it's not like Ben's been a

1788
01:34:07,439 --> 01:34:11,680
Speaker 1: bad guy. They've liked having him here. It's just the

1789
01:34:11,760 --> 01:34:14,800
Speaker 1: way the pieces fit. His role is gonna be if

1790
01:34:14,840 --> 01:34:18,800
Speaker 1: everybody's healthy, he's coming off the bench, or he's kind

1791
01:34:18,800 --> 01:34:21,240
Speaker 1: of the odd man out in the rotation, and so

1792
01:34:22,280 --> 01:34:25,240
Speaker 1: you have to do what helps the team to you know, first.

1793
01:34:26,040 --> 01:34:28,519
Speaker 1: But if you can do that and put him in

1794
01:34:28,560 --> 01:34:32,960
Speaker 1: a good position as well, then that's what Kevin Pritchard,

1795
01:34:33,400 --> 01:34:37,880
Speaker 1: Chad Buchanan, Rick Carlisle are gonna do. Joe anything else.

1796
01:34:39,000 --> 01:34:44,799
Speaker 8: Yeah, My second question for you is, if by chance

1797
01:34:45,040 --> 01:34:47,959
Speaker 8: we do and getting it top five.

1798
01:34:47,720 --> 01:34:52,800
Speaker 5: To six, what's your order? Who do you like in

1799
01:34:52,920 --> 01:34:53,719
Speaker 5: our system?

1800
01:34:53,960 --> 01:34:59,880
Speaker 8: Between you know, Peterson, Boozer and then the guy from

1801
01:35:00,560 --> 01:35:03,680
Speaker 8: who's them in order for.

1802
01:35:03,920 --> 01:35:07,680
Speaker 1: Me sure and Joe, to be honest with you, I

1803
01:35:07,840 --> 01:35:12,080
Speaker 1: don't watch enough of that level of college basketball to

1804
01:35:12,240 --> 01:35:15,720
Speaker 1: give you an intelligent answer. I would tend to think

1805
01:35:16,400 --> 01:35:18,760
Speaker 1: that if you're the pacers and your piecers are so

1806
01:35:19,000 --> 01:35:24,200
Speaker 1: are your pieces are so locked in for next year siakamback, Halliburton, returns,

1807
01:35:24,680 --> 01:35:30,479
Speaker 1: nem Hard, Topping, Nie Smith, McConnell, then you kind of get,

1808
01:35:31,080 --> 01:35:33,040
Speaker 1: you know, a little bit further down the line. We

1809
01:35:33,200 --> 01:35:36,080
Speaker 1: think Huff is a pick. He's probably truly a backup five,

1810
01:35:36,479 --> 01:35:38,080
Speaker 1: but a guy that's going to get you some minutes.

1811
01:35:38,560 --> 01:35:43,559
Speaker 1: Jackson and Walker. Uh, but those top six guys, okay,

1812
01:35:43,920 --> 01:35:47,320
Speaker 1: comes you're four. Halliburton and Nemhard can both play the

1813
01:35:47,360 --> 01:35:50,080
Speaker 1: one or play together one and two. Topping plays a

1814
01:35:50,160 --> 01:35:52,920
Speaker 1: small ball five or a four off the bench, Nie

1815
01:35:52,960 --> 01:35:56,040
Speaker 1: Smith is a three, McConnell is a one. You get

1816
01:35:56,080 --> 01:35:59,400
Speaker 1: the idea. You've got Shepperd a contract for next year,

1817
01:35:59,439 --> 01:36:01,800
Speaker 1: in the year after, and again you're painting to be

1818
01:36:01,880 --> 01:36:04,200
Speaker 1: kind of a ninth or tenth guy, so that piece fits.

1819
01:36:04,439 --> 01:36:08,000
Speaker 1: In other words, you've got shooters and you've got guards.

1820
01:36:08,520 --> 01:36:11,200
Speaker 1: You need size. Well, the three guys that you just

1821
01:36:11,320 --> 01:36:15,439
Speaker 1: talked about. Peterson's a combo guard. Debansa is more of

1822
01:36:15,479 --> 01:36:19,080
Speaker 1: a small forward. Boozer is more of a power forward

1823
01:36:19,640 --> 01:36:22,760
Speaker 1: that really isn't a true big until you get further

1824
01:36:22,880 --> 01:36:26,280
Speaker 1: down the line. Like the first center I see coming

1825
01:36:26,360 --> 01:36:28,519
Speaker 1: off the board and I'm at NBA draft dot net

1826
01:36:29,320 --> 01:36:32,479
Speaker 1: is a guy that we like the number nine selection,

1827
01:36:33,120 --> 01:36:35,880
Speaker 1: and again it looks likely the Pacers going to get

1828
01:36:35,880 --> 01:36:39,200
Speaker 1: a top five pick. And that is why there seemingly

1829
01:36:39,320 --> 01:36:42,639
Speaker 1: has been a lot of hey, can you move Matherin

1830
01:36:43,479 --> 01:36:47,800
Speaker 1: and maybe another piece sore two to then bring in

1831
01:36:47,960 --> 01:36:51,400
Speaker 1: a big to try to fix your Miles Turner hole

1832
01:36:52,000 --> 01:36:55,439
Speaker 1: and your need that you've gotten a roster knowing basically

1833
01:36:56,120 --> 01:36:59,320
Speaker 1: you are being handed a free player in the draft

1834
01:36:59,520 --> 01:37:01,439
Speaker 1: that you don't have to ought to acquire. But can

1835
01:37:01,560 --> 01:37:05,040
Speaker 1: you move Matherin either at the trade deadline or during

1836
01:37:05,080 --> 01:37:09,160
Speaker 1: the off season to then bring back that extra big,

1837
01:37:09,720 --> 01:37:14,240
Speaker 1: knowing then the pieces all will fit around at that time,

1838
01:37:15,720 --> 01:37:16,840
Speaker 1: right right?

1839
01:37:17,360 --> 01:37:21,439
Speaker 8: Yeah, So that's exciting in a weird way, right, I mean,

1840
01:37:22,080 --> 01:37:26,560
Speaker 8: them doing so poorly this year, but it's still exciting

1841
01:37:26,640 --> 01:37:29,360
Speaker 8: and I'm I'm looking forward to next season.

1842
01:37:29,880 --> 01:37:32,639
Speaker 1: Joe, we all are, thank you, Joe, And I almost

1843
01:37:32,680 --> 01:37:36,120
Speaker 1: feel bad and again and maybe because I don't do

1844
01:37:36,200 --> 01:37:38,839
Speaker 1: this every day. I can kind of do this because

1845
01:37:39,160 --> 01:37:42,240
Speaker 1: Eddie does it every day on this show and then

1846
01:37:43,200 --> 01:37:46,000
Speaker 1: is obviously a big part of the radio network where

1847
01:37:46,040 --> 01:37:48,519
Speaker 1: he is still locked in for eighty two games. If

1848
01:37:48,560 --> 01:37:51,120
Speaker 1: it's the exact opposite of the way we felt about

1849
01:37:51,160 --> 01:37:54,479
Speaker 1: things last year, he can't check out. He's locked in.

1850
01:37:55,280 --> 01:37:58,360
Speaker 1: You know, he's dialed in every day. So I guess Eddie,

1851
01:37:58,560 --> 01:38:03,360
Speaker 1: if you don't mind, just how different do game days

1852
01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:05,960
Speaker 1: feel to you to what they did at this time

1853
01:38:06,040 --> 01:38:06,439
Speaker 1: last year?

1854
01:38:06,520 --> 01:38:07,759
Speaker 2: They certainly feel different.

1855
01:38:08,920 --> 01:38:12,360
Speaker 4: It's more like you're wondering in these games now when

1856
01:38:13,240 --> 01:38:17,400
Speaker 4: they're very competitive, Like I remember it was after the

1857
01:38:17,560 --> 01:38:18,160
Speaker 4: Detroit game.

1858
01:38:18,200 --> 01:38:20,120
Speaker 2: I can't remember which one it was. It was one

1859
01:38:20,160 --> 01:38:21,920
Speaker 2: of those other road contests Philly.

1860
01:38:22,920 --> 01:38:25,880
Speaker 4: They were against the seventy six ers until the fourth

1861
01:38:25,960 --> 01:38:29,160
Speaker 4: quarter happened. And it's getting to the point now in

1862
01:38:29,320 --> 01:38:33,120
Speaker 4: these games where you know there's going to be a

1863
01:38:33,360 --> 01:38:38,040
Speaker 4: lull of like four minutes to five minutes. It's not

1864
01:38:38,240 --> 01:38:40,920
Speaker 4: to the Mike Woodson era of the IU Hoosiers would

1865
01:38:41,320 --> 01:38:43,600
Speaker 4: it would be eight to ten, But like you know,

1866
01:38:43,680 --> 01:38:45,200
Speaker 4: there's going to be a certain part of the game,

1867
01:38:45,240 --> 01:38:47,280
Speaker 4: whether that's in the third quarter, of the fourth quarter,

1868
01:38:47,360 --> 01:38:49,640
Speaker 4: first half, whenever they're just going to go on this

1869
01:38:50,560 --> 01:38:53,680
Speaker 4: stretch of where they struggle offensively, and in that game,

1870
01:38:53,720 --> 01:38:55,960
Speaker 4: that's what happened in the fourth quarter, and going into

1871
01:38:55,960 --> 01:38:58,840
Speaker 4: the fourth quarter you probably can feel it. And the

1872
01:38:58,920 --> 01:39:02,160
Speaker 4: one thing I will say is that I have a

1873
01:39:02,240 --> 01:39:06,320
Speaker 4: different level of appreciation for Pascal Siakam this year with

1874
01:39:06,479 --> 01:39:09,560
Speaker 4: the way that he's gone out every single night and

1875
01:39:09,720 --> 01:39:11,439
Speaker 4: he leaves it all out there on the floor every

1876
01:39:11,439 --> 01:39:13,320
Speaker 4: single night. Like when they pand him on the bench

1877
01:39:13,360 --> 01:39:16,240
Speaker 4: at the end of these games, he looks absolutely drained

1878
01:39:16,280 --> 01:39:18,400
Speaker 4: after every single game because he's doing as much as

1879
01:39:18,439 --> 01:39:20,759
Speaker 4: he possibly can to put this team in a position

1880
01:39:20,840 --> 01:39:25,200
Speaker 4: to win, and hopefully along the way, they're instilling some

1881
01:39:27,479 --> 01:39:31,200
Speaker 4: confidence and they're trying to build these winning ways that

1882
01:39:31,320 --> 01:39:33,760
Speaker 4: can help them when they get Tyree's how they're brought

1883
01:39:34,120 --> 01:39:37,439
Speaker 4: back next year whenever they find whomever their center is

1884
01:39:37,880 --> 01:39:41,760
Speaker 4: for next year, and then hopefully a top three pick

1885
01:39:41,840 --> 01:39:42,120
Speaker 4: as well.

1886
01:39:42,439 --> 01:39:46,200
Speaker 1: To boot the thing that intrigues me and again I

1887
01:39:46,360 --> 01:39:48,479
Speaker 1: use this line earlier and I'll bring it back up

1888
01:39:48,520 --> 01:39:53,520
Speaker 1: again now I watch maybe a little more major college basketball,

1889
01:39:53,840 --> 01:39:56,840
Speaker 1: because let's face it, the basketball at normally see is

1890
01:39:56,960 --> 01:40:00,960
Speaker 1: either low Division one or non Division one. So like

1891
01:40:01,320 --> 01:40:04,240
Speaker 1: on Saturday or Sunday afternoon, rather I've got IU Indy.

1892
01:40:04,600 --> 01:40:08,280
Speaker 1: Tomorrow afternoon, I've got Marion University. From time to time,

1893
01:40:08,360 --> 01:40:10,800
Speaker 1: I'll mix in an Indiana State game, and those are

1894
01:40:10,840 --> 01:40:12,880
Speaker 1: the games that I'm calling. So that's the level that

1895
01:40:12,960 --> 01:40:16,000
Speaker 1: I see when I make it a point to watch

1896
01:40:16,080 --> 01:40:19,120
Speaker 1: a college basketball game, because I'm not doing those college

1897
01:40:19,479 --> 01:40:22,479
Speaker 1: basketball games. I'm doing high school basketball games. So saying

1898
01:40:22,479 --> 01:40:24,439
Speaker 1: tell you about where guys are gonna go play next year.

1899
01:40:25,040 --> 01:40:28,439
Speaker 1: But when I'm actually watching, I watch Perdue because they

1900
01:40:28,479 --> 01:40:31,880
Speaker 1: have been so good and say, are so entertaining to watch. Okay,

1901
01:40:32,439 --> 01:40:35,120
Speaker 1: But the two other teams that I find myself watching

1902
01:40:35,880 --> 01:40:40,679
Speaker 1: are Kansas because of Flora Badunga and wanting to see

1903
01:40:40,800 --> 01:40:44,920
Speaker 1: him do well, having covered him at Kocomo. But the

1904
01:40:45,000 --> 01:40:48,439
Speaker 1: other guy that I grin from ear to ear seeing

1905
01:40:48,520 --> 01:40:52,280
Speaker 1: his name on a mock draft is Braylon Mullins because

1906
01:40:52,280 --> 01:40:55,280
Speaker 1: I know the dad, and because I have known Josh

1907
01:40:55,520 --> 01:40:58,479
Speaker 1: and Katie as in mom and dad for so long.

1908
01:40:59,280 --> 01:41:02,000
Speaker 1: In fact, happy belated birthday, Josh. I think he took

1909
01:41:02,040 --> 01:41:05,439
Speaker 1: forty five earlier this week. And I know them because

1910
01:41:05,600 --> 01:41:09,160
Speaker 1: Josh played for us on our last NCAA tournament team

1911
01:41:09,600 --> 01:41:14,680
Speaker 1: at Iupui now Iu, Indy. So while Joe asks a

1912
01:41:14,720 --> 01:41:18,600
Speaker 1: great question and I can rattle off that Darren Peterson

1913
01:41:18,760 --> 01:41:22,960
Speaker 1: is number one, Debansa is number two, and Boozer is

1914
01:41:23,080 --> 01:41:26,000
Speaker 1: number three in terms of the latest mock draft, and

1915
01:41:26,200 --> 01:41:28,920
Speaker 1: any of those guys would help this basketball team. To

1916
01:41:29,040 --> 01:41:31,320
Speaker 1: be honest with you, I am drawn to the fact

1917
01:41:31,320 --> 01:41:34,720
Speaker 1: that Brayln Mullins, who I covered his games at Greenfield

1918
01:41:34,840 --> 01:41:38,760
Speaker 1: Central last year, is listed as the eighth pick in

1919
01:41:38,880 --> 01:41:43,280
Speaker 1: the mock draft. That's typically where my eyes tend to

1920
01:41:43,360 --> 01:41:46,599
Speaker 1: go because I want to go root for the kids

1921
01:41:46,640 --> 01:41:48,400
Speaker 1: that I have seen. I don't want to see them

1922
01:41:48,479 --> 01:41:53,839
Speaker 1: be successful at the next level, level, beyond etc. But frankly,

1923
01:41:54,520 --> 01:41:57,720
Speaker 1: any of those players if the Pacers get to the

1924
01:41:58,360 --> 01:42:02,639
Speaker 1: top pick, which they've never had, never been the first pick,

1925
01:42:03,439 --> 01:42:08,479
Speaker 1: second pick, Wayman Tisdale, second pick, Rick Smith's. You know,

1926
01:42:08,520 --> 01:42:11,080
Speaker 1: it's almost like I've been a badge of honor you've

1927
01:42:11,120 --> 01:42:12,880
Speaker 1: ever had the first pick. You don't want to be

1928
01:42:12,960 --> 01:42:15,160
Speaker 1: in the NBA draft lottery. But if you're gonna be

1929
01:42:15,240 --> 01:42:17,760
Speaker 1: bad and be bad for one year, the best way

1930
01:42:17,840 --> 01:42:19,599
Speaker 1: to get out of it is to be the number

1931
01:42:19,640 --> 01:42:22,760
Speaker 1: one pick, And obviously it's not guaranteed that you have

1932
01:42:22,880 --> 01:42:24,720
Speaker 1: the worst record and you have the number one pick

1933
01:42:24,760 --> 01:42:27,759
Speaker 1: in the draft. But for what it's worth, the Pacers

1934
01:42:27,840 --> 01:42:32,000
Speaker 1: are a half game back of the Pelicans for having

1935
01:42:32,040 --> 01:42:34,599
Speaker 1: the worst record in the NBA. Pacers going to night's

1936
01:42:34,640 --> 01:42:36,760
Speaker 1: game at ten and thirty five, the Pels in the

1937
01:42:36,760 --> 01:42:41,240
Speaker 1: Western Conference ten and thirty six. And again, I haven't

1938
01:42:41,280 --> 01:42:43,880
Speaker 1: had to know what's been going on with the NBA

1939
01:42:44,000 --> 01:42:47,200
Speaker 1: draft lottery for some time, but I think now you

1940
01:42:47,280 --> 01:42:49,599
Speaker 1: get the same number at ping pong balls or chances

1941
01:42:50,240 --> 01:42:53,080
Speaker 1: if you finish in the bottom five. I believe that

1942
01:42:53,240 --> 01:42:56,080
Speaker 1: is the case. I will study up more before we

1943
01:42:56,160 --> 01:42:59,240
Speaker 1: get to draft lottery time. All right, three one, seven,

1944
01:42:59,400 --> 01:43:05,360
Speaker 1: ten seventy. However, we have a special guest that is

1945
01:43:05,479 --> 01:43:08,920
Speaker 1: joining us. The Indie ig Night have just begun their

1946
01:43:09,000 --> 01:43:12,439
Speaker 1: second season, and they have begun it very well. They

1947
01:43:12,479 --> 01:43:15,240
Speaker 1: are three and zero and all of these matches have

1948
01:43:15,439 --> 01:43:19,000
Speaker 1: taken place away from home. They are happy to be home.

1949
01:43:19,360 --> 01:43:21,840
Speaker 1: Maybe not about the weather forecast for tomorrow night, but

1950
01:43:21,960 --> 01:43:25,879
Speaker 1: happy to be home nonetheless, And one of their star players,

1951
01:43:25,960 --> 01:43:28,599
Speaker 1: and Lydia Martin, is kind enough to join us now

1952
01:43:29,040 --> 01:43:32,679
Speaker 1: on the Java House Peel and poor guest line Lydia.

1953
01:43:32,760 --> 01:43:34,639
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for the time. How you doing today,

1954
01:43:35,320 --> 01:43:36,040
Speaker 1: I'm doing great.

1955
01:43:36,120 --> 01:43:37,040
Speaker 5: Thank you so much for having me.

1956
01:43:37,439 --> 01:43:40,040
Speaker 1: All right, So off to a three and oh start

1957
01:43:40,120 --> 01:43:43,280
Speaker 1: this season. Obviously it can't be better than that. What's

1958
01:43:43,360 --> 01:43:45,760
Speaker 1: been key to you or your teammate success so far?

1959
01:43:46,840 --> 01:43:49,439
Speaker 9: Yeah, well, we just have such an amazing staff and

1960
01:43:49,680 --> 01:43:52,280
Speaker 9: foreign Our new head coach has just come in and

1961
01:43:52,439 --> 01:43:55,000
Speaker 9: just totally changed the program and how we kind of

1962
01:43:55,080 --> 01:43:57,120
Speaker 9: view the game and play it. And she brought in

1963
01:43:57,200 --> 01:43:59,800
Speaker 9: fifteen great girls who can all play and when that

1964
01:44:00,360 --> 01:44:02,679
Speaker 9: and we saw this weekend we had a totally different

1965
01:44:02,720 --> 01:44:04,760
Speaker 9: lineup than we did the first two games, and she

1966
01:44:04,920 --> 01:44:06,320
Speaker 9: was really exciting to play with a group of girls

1967
01:44:06,320 --> 01:44:07,759
Speaker 9: who are so passionate about winning.

1968
01:44:08,439 --> 01:44:11,760
Speaker 1: Team can be doing better and clearly you can't either,

1969
01:44:11,880 --> 01:44:15,519
Speaker 1: because you're the leagu's player of the week. Congratulations. A

1970
01:44:15,760 --> 01:44:20,280
Speaker 1: record for blocks in a match against Columbus with eleven

1971
01:44:20,800 --> 01:44:24,719
Speaker 1: and the record for blocks in a set with six.

1972
01:44:25,520 --> 01:44:27,920
Speaker 1: What's that feeling like And are you like keeping track

1973
01:44:28,000 --> 01:44:29,920
Speaker 1: of that in your head during the match?

1974
01:44:30,920 --> 01:44:31,040
Speaker 5: Oh?

1975
01:44:31,200 --> 01:44:34,479
Speaker 9: Not really, No, it's just kind of playing the game

1976
01:44:34,600 --> 01:44:36,599
Speaker 9: right And so obviously you want to block as many

1977
01:44:36,640 --> 01:44:38,719
Speaker 9: balls as you can and get it scores many points,

1978
01:44:38,800 --> 01:44:40,439
Speaker 9: but it's a team effort and I think part of

1979
01:44:40,479 --> 01:44:42,960
Speaker 9: that is just douting and you know, playing the game

1980
01:44:43,000 --> 01:44:45,600
Speaker 9: and reading your opponent really well. But no, I'm not

1981
01:44:45,800 --> 01:44:47,760
Speaker 9: necessarily keeping track of it when I'm playing. I just

1982
01:44:47,800 --> 01:44:49,040
Speaker 9: want to be really present in the moment.

1983
01:44:49,840 --> 01:44:52,120
Speaker 1: Again, Lydia Martin, our guest Greg Raikes run for Jay

1984
01:44:52,200 --> 01:44:53,880
Speaker 1: Query here on ninety three to five and one oh

1985
01:44:54,000 --> 01:44:56,320
Speaker 1: seven five of the fan. All Right, you're the pleasure

1986
01:44:56,439 --> 01:44:59,720
Speaker 1: playing for the team last year. What are your expectations?

1987
01:44:59,800 --> 01:45:02,240
Speaker 1: What or it's the opening match, which is always a

1988
01:45:02,320 --> 01:45:04,920
Speaker 1: big deal, or any other thirteen home matches you'll have

1989
01:45:05,040 --> 01:45:07,280
Speaker 1: during the course of the season. I think that's the number.

1990
01:45:07,320 --> 01:45:10,679
Speaker 1: By the way, what's the atmosphere like when you're playing

1991
01:45:10,680 --> 01:45:13,560
Speaker 1: a home match in Fishers? Oh, there's nothing like it.

1992
01:45:13,880 --> 01:45:16,320
Speaker 9: We have the most amazing events center and the fans

1993
01:45:16,360 --> 01:45:19,000
Speaker 9: are just absolutely amazing. I'm really excited for our home

1994
01:45:19,040 --> 01:45:21,479
Speaker 9: opener match tomorrow. I know some people are a little

1995
01:45:21,479 --> 01:45:23,560
Speaker 9: skeptical about the weather, but we're still a whole go.

1996
01:45:24,400 --> 01:45:27,080
Speaker 9: We had a fan fest plan for outside prior to

1997
01:45:27,160 --> 01:45:29,160
Speaker 9: the match at five, but that's the move inside, so

1998
01:45:29,479 --> 01:45:31,840
Speaker 9: people are more than welcome still come. I mean it's

1999
01:45:31,880 --> 01:45:34,120
Speaker 9: going to be a really good game, and you know,

2000
01:45:34,280 --> 01:45:37,080
Speaker 9: ultimately our goals to win and carry on through the

2001
01:45:37,120 --> 01:45:38,920
Speaker 9: season with all of our wonderful fans. I love to

2002
01:45:38,960 --> 01:45:39,919
Speaker 9: meet as many people.

2003
01:45:39,720 --> 01:45:40,120
Speaker 3: As I can.

2004
01:45:40,600 --> 01:45:43,080
Speaker 1: The staff was great about making sure it has much

2005
01:45:43,120 --> 01:45:45,439
Speaker 1: information on you as possible. So, I know you played

2006
01:45:45,439 --> 01:45:49,040
Speaker 1: at Oklahoma, I know you're from Anderson, South Carolina. But frankly,

2007
01:45:49,120 --> 01:45:52,240
Speaker 1: until the last couple of years, you really couldn't truly

2008
01:45:52,360 --> 01:45:55,559
Speaker 1: be a professional volleyball player and call the States home.

2009
01:45:55,680 --> 01:45:58,160
Speaker 1: You had to go overseas. So in between Oklahoma and

2010
01:45:58,160 --> 01:46:01,240
Speaker 1: the IG nite any overseas playing professionally or has all

2011
01:46:01,280 --> 01:46:04,200
Speaker 1: your professional experience been here in Indianapolis or in the States.

2012
01:46:04,720 --> 01:46:07,240
Speaker 9: Yeah, my first season professionally was last year here in

2013
01:46:07,280 --> 01:46:10,280
Speaker 9: the States, and I wasn't even a draft pick and

2014
01:46:10,479 --> 01:46:12,599
Speaker 9: Indy took a chance on me, which was really really

2015
01:46:12,680 --> 01:46:14,439
Speaker 9: special and I'm so grateful for it.

2016
01:46:14,920 --> 01:46:17,559
Speaker 1: So what is it like, Because again, those that came

2017
01:46:17,600 --> 01:46:20,240
Speaker 1: before you, and they're not too distant, pass new if

2018
01:46:20,280 --> 01:46:22,160
Speaker 1: you wanted to play past college. I mean, it's not

2019
01:46:22,240 --> 01:46:23,920
Speaker 1: a bad thing to travel the world, but I mean,

2020
01:46:23,960 --> 01:46:25,680
Speaker 1: you're going to be a long way from home. What

2021
01:46:25,880 --> 01:46:27,240
Speaker 1: is it like to be able to play here in

2022
01:46:27,280 --> 01:46:27,719
Speaker 1: the States.

2023
01:46:29,040 --> 01:46:29,800
Speaker 3: Getting to be so.

2024
01:46:29,920 --> 01:46:31,800
Speaker 9: Close to your friends and family and just those who

2025
01:46:31,840 --> 01:46:34,000
Speaker 9: have supported you to get to where you are and

2026
01:46:34,280 --> 01:46:36,080
Speaker 9: sim show up at games is so fun. But it's

2027
01:46:36,080 --> 01:46:39,120
Speaker 9: also so inspiring to tell the younger girls who are

2028
01:46:39,160 --> 01:46:41,479
Speaker 9: wanting to play that it's possible for you to play

2029
01:46:41,560 --> 01:46:45,639
Speaker 9: professionally here and getting to play for an amazing staff

2030
01:46:45,720 --> 01:46:47,960
Speaker 9: and just see the sport. Girl, It's just been amazing.

2031
01:46:48,520 --> 01:46:51,719
Speaker 1: Indiana has always been kind of a sneaky good volleyball state,

2032
01:46:52,240 --> 01:46:56,320
Speaker 1: Like one of the nation's hotbeds of volleyball was just

2033
01:46:56,720 --> 01:46:59,000
Speaker 1: up the road from you and Fishers and Delaware County

2034
01:46:59,080 --> 01:47:01,559
Speaker 1: and Muncie. Frankly, that has now kind of spread all

2035
01:47:01,600 --> 01:47:05,200
Speaker 1: around the state with club volleyball, etc. But when you

2036
01:47:05,400 --> 01:47:08,000
Speaker 1: moved here, did you kind of learn that quickly that

2037
01:47:08,080 --> 01:47:10,360
Speaker 1: the high school scene and club scene was pretty good

2038
01:47:10,360 --> 01:47:10,680
Speaker 1: here too?

2039
01:47:11,479 --> 01:47:12,080
Speaker 5: Oh? Definitely.

2040
01:47:12,200 --> 01:47:14,000
Speaker 9: I mean, and we love as a team going to

2041
01:47:14,040 --> 01:47:16,639
Speaker 9: different clubs and just meeting all the girls, maybe trying

2042
01:47:16,720 --> 01:47:19,280
Speaker 9: some autographs and just investing in who they are as people.

2043
01:47:19,800 --> 01:47:22,160
Speaker 9: And then I even coached high school for Fisher's this season,

2044
01:47:22,240 --> 01:47:24,120
Speaker 9: and that was just a blast getting to know those

2045
01:47:24,200 --> 01:47:27,000
Speaker 9: girls and cheering them on and letting them know like, hey,

2046
01:47:27,280 --> 01:47:29,720
Speaker 9: I started where you were too, so it's just cool

2047
01:47:29,760 --> 01:47:30,880
Speaker 9: to see all that progress happen.

2048
01:47:31,160 --> 01:47:32,720
Speaker 1: I would hope there was a good level of buy

2049
01:47:32,760 --> 01:47:35,080
Speaker 1: in because you used to listen to your coach regardless,

2050
01:47:35,520 --> 01:47:37,400
Speaker 1: but when they asked for your crew, don't you say

2051
01:47:37,640 --> 01:47:40,160
Speaker 1: you see that arena over there? I play there. I

2052
01:47:40,160 --> 01:47:42,000
Speaker 1: would hope Bien was pretty quick with what you were

2053
01:47:42,040 --> 01:47:46,400
Speaker 1: telling them, right, Yeah, definitely. You talked about a new

2054
01:47:46,479 --> 01:47:49,960
Speaker 1: coach in Lauren because obviously, for those that don't know,

2055
01:47:50,320 --> 01:47:52,559
Speaker 1: you guys were the league runners up a year ago,

2056
01:47:52,920 --> 01:47:57,320
Speaker 1: so clearly year one went exceedingly well. But you've liked

2057
01:47:57,320 --> 01:47:59,200
Speaker 1: the changes you see with a new head coach this year.

2058
01:47:59,240 --> 01:48:01,400
Speaker 1: Tell us about what is different and why this is

2059
01:48:01,400 --> 01:48:02,839
Speaker 1: such a good thing for you and your teammates.

2060
01:48:03,920 --> 01:48:04,120
Speaker 5: Yeah.

2061
01:48:04,200 --> 01:48:06,840
Speaker 9: I think she just brings so much experience, right. She

2062
01:48:06,920 --> 01:48:10,040
Speaker 9: played professionally, she's coached professionally, and I think that's something

2063
01:48:10,080 --> 01:48:12,639
Speaker 9: that we're kind of hoping the league continues to buy

2064
01:48:12,720 --> 01:48:16,840
Speaker 9: into of getting just some more international experience. And she's

2065
01:48:16,960 --> 01:48:19,439
Speaker 9: just I don't even have enough words to say about her.

2066
01:48:19,680 --> 01:48:21,400
Speaker 9: We just respect her so much as a coach. She's

2067
01:48:21,600 --> 01:48:24,679
Speaker 9: very straightforward but encouraging at the same time she pushed

2068
01:48:24,680 --> 01:48:27,360
Speaker 9: you past your limits. But also she's so smart and

2069
01:48:27,560 --> 01:48:30,760
Speaker 9: just sees the game so analytically but in a way

2070
01:48:30,920 --> 01:48:32,360
Speaker 9: to keep it simple at the same time on the

2071
01:48:32,360 --> 01:48:34,679
Speaker 9: game day that she doesn't want to make us overthink,

2072
01:48:34,840 --> 01:48:38,240
Speaker 9: but we have much more preparation coming into games.

2073
01:48:38,560 --> 01:48:40,360
Speaker 1: A second year here in Indye or at least in

2074
01:48:40,400 --> 01:48:42,519
Speaker 1: the Indie area. What do you like about living in

2075
01:48:42,600 --> 01:48:43,640
Speaker 1: Central Indiana so far?

2076
01:48:45,240 --> 01:48:46,680
Speaker 3: I think it's so up and.

2077
01:48:46,760 --> 01:48:48,840
Speaker 9: Coming, and I can go out of the store and

2078
01:48:48,920 --> 01:48:51,559
Speaker 9: still meet so many new people and everyone's really friendly.

2079
01:48:52,160 --> 01:48:54,960
Speaker 9: I love that everyone's just so involved with sports, whether

2080
01:48:55,000 --> 01:48:58,000
Speaker 9: it's the cults or the PACER's, the Fever, the Indie eleven. Like,

2081
01:48:58,040 --> 01:49:01,920
Speaker 9: there's so many different sports and that's something I've never

2082
01:49:01,960 --> 01:49:04,360
Speaker 9: really been a part of, and so getting to bring

2083
01:49:04,479 --> 01:49:08,000
Speaker 9: Indi Ignite and volleyball into that space is just so wonderful.

2084
01:49:08,439 --> 01:49:10,519
Speaker 1: As the voice of the Indie eleven, God bless you

2085
01:49:10,640 --> 01:49:13,560
Speaker 1: for including us. Thank you for dropping that at the

2086
01:49:13,720 --> 01:49:16,839
Speaker 1: end of that run all right, and again, season openers

2087
01:49:16,880 --> 01:49:18,800
Speaker 1: are special, even if whether it's not going to be

2088
01:49:18,840 --> 01:49:22,080
Speaker 1: great outside, but whether it's coming to tomorrow night's match

2089
01:49:22,360 --> 01:49:26,240
Speaker 1: or a Ladder home match, what should fans expect when

2090
01:49:26,280 --> 01:49:27,840
Speaker 1: they come see the Ignite play at home?

2091
01:49:29,000 --> 01:49:29,719
Speaker 3: Just so much.

2092
01:49:29,600 --> 01:49:32,920
Speaker 9: Excitement, Like we want you guys to get involved. I

2093
01:49:33,240 --> 01:49:35,400
Speaker 9: love interacting to the crowd during the game, honestly, kind

2094
01:49:35,439 --> 01:49:38,720
Speaker 9: of keeps me grounded and just loose. But I think

2095
01:49:39,080 --> 01:49:42,120
Speaker 9: you're going to expect so many fan engagement. We're going

2096
01:49:42,160 --> 01:49:44,720
Speaker 9: to have drinks and food you can buy, and T

2097
01:49:44,880 --> 01:49:46,840
Speaker 9: shirts to be thrown out, and it's just such a

2098
01:49:47,040 --> 01:49:49,839
Speaker 9: fun game to watch and you can get really excited

2099
01:49:49,880 --> 01:49:51,880
Speaker 9: on your toes and we'll have lots of cheers for

2100
01:49:51,960 --> 01:49:54,479
Speaker 9: you to buy into as well. So that's just really fun.

2101
01:49:54,840 --> 01:49:56,800
Speaker 1: Lydia, I appreciate your time the day before a game.

2102
01:49:57,120 --> 01:49:58,799
Speaker 1: Best of luck tomorrow and the rest of the season.

2103
01:49:58,840 --> 01:50:01,439
Speaker 1: Thanks for your time today, Thank you so much. You

2104
01:50:01,560 --> 01:50:04,360
Speaker 1: got it, Lydia Martin kind enough to join us now.

2105
01:50:04,720 --> 01:50:08,599
Speaker 1: Jake has really embraced the indie Ignite and frankly they're

2106
01:50:08,600 --> 01:50:11,599
Speaker 1: a supporter of the show as well. But typically if

2107
01:50:11,640 --> 01:50:14,320
Speaker 1: you're gonna hear somebody talk about the agnuit of the

2108
01:50:14,400 --> 01:50:17,920
Speaker 1: radio station, it is Jake so Eddie like he was

2109
01:50:18,000 --> 01:50:20,200
Speaker 1: there when they were doing draft picks earlier this year.

2110
01:50:20,320 --> 01:50:20,639
Speaker 5: Correct.

2111
01:50:20,880 --> 01:50:23,439
Speaker 1: I'm sure he's been court side for matches. So what

2112
01:50:23,600 --> 01:50:27,040
Speaker 1: has Jake's conversation been about this relatively new franchise now

2113
01:50:27,080 --> 01:50:27,720
Speaker 1: and you're number two.

2114
01:50:28,040 --> 01:50:31,400
Speaker 4: We haven't had much conversation yet, Greg, just because I

2115
01:50:31,439 --> 01:50:33,920
Speaker 4: mean they're early end of the season, only three matches

2116
01:50:34,000 --> 01:50:35,479
Speaker 4: in the first on one tomorrow.

2117
01:50:35,560 --> 01:50:38,280
Speaker 2: I think Jake and I are both going tomorrow. Okay,

2118
01:50:38,600 --> 01:50:40,519
Speaker 2: I know Jake for sure is going.

2119
01:50:40,920 --> 01:50:44,160
Speaker 1: Me to be determined, right, But because you're still living

2120
01:50:44,160 --> 01:50:46,519
Speaker 1: on the South Side, right, I do, yes, Okay, maybe

2121
01:50:46,560 --> 01:50:50,040
Speaker 1: a carpool from Jake's hashag Midtown reference or residents might

2122
01:50:50,080 --> 01:50:50,519
Speaker 1: be the way to go.

2123
01:50:50,920 --> 01:50:53,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, the the Boom Mansion is what I call it. Yeah,

2124
01:50:54,479 --> 01:50:56,040
Speaker 2: the Boom Mansion. Nice. Yeah.

2125
01:50:56,120 --> 01:50:58,160
Speaker 1: Have you been on Boo duty, by the way, anytime soon?

2126
01:50:58,560 --> 01:50:58,920
Speaker 7: Recently?

2127
01:50:59,120 --> 01:51:03,160
Speaker 2: Not recently. I did ask Jake yesterday how Boo's doing

2128
01:51:03,200 --> 01:51:04,639
Speaker 2: Boos alive? And well is what he says.

2129
01:51:04,840 --> 01:51:05,600
Speaker 3: So that's that was it?

2130
01:51:05,760 --> 01:51:08,559
Speaker 1: Huh, Yes, kind of played it low, he did, all right.

2131
01:51:09,000 --> 01:51:10,160
Speaker 1: What was Jake doing today, by.

2132
01:51:10,120 --> 01:51:12,360
Speaker 2: The way, not I think he's interesting. He wanted to

2133
01:51:12,360 --> 01:51:14,240
Speaker 2: take a day off. He had a day off to

2134
01:51:14,400 --> 01:51:15,160
Speaker 2: use and He's like, I.

2135
01:51:15,160 --> 01:51:17,960
Speaker 1: Deserve it a Friday, don't leave any pt on the table.

2136
01:51:18,160 --> 01:51:19,880
Speaker 1: He said he was getting editor. I was giving that

2137
01:51:19,960 --> 01:51:22,360
Speaker 1: advice by somebody down the hall just a few moments ago.

2138
01:51:22,600 --> 01:51:25,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think, uh, I think that's exactly what it was.

2139
01:51:25,600 --> 01:51:27,720
Speaker 4: And I know he's taking the day off running from Aaron,

2140
01:51:27,760 --> 01:51:29,320
Speaker 4: so he could be listening. He could not be listening.

2141
01:51:29,360 --> 01:51:29,680
Speaker 2: I don't know.

2142
01:51:29,840 --> 01:51:32,080
Speaker 1: Well, hello, Jake, we hope you're doing you proud on

2143
01:51:32,160 --> 01:51:34,400
Speaker 1: the show to dead we will step aside and speaking

2144
01:51:34,439 --> 01:51:36,960
Speaker 1: to Jake. We will hear from him when he can

01:51:40,280 --> 01:51:42,880
Speaker 1: Jake takes a Friday off, he doesn't take a Friday

2147
01:51:42,960 --> 01:51:46,920
Speaker 1: off from this segment. So magically you'll hate Jake Query

2148
01:51:47,280 --> 01:51:49,400
Speaker 1: after this on ninety three to five and one oh

2166
01:52:40,160 --> 01:52:43,240

2167
01:52:43,320 --> 01:52:46,120
Speaker 10: will for your heart, the prevention when it comes to

2168
01:52:46,320 --> 01:52:49,360
Speaker 10: making sure that you are avoiding any sort of potential

2169
01:52:49,439 --> 01:52:52,120
Speaker 10: for heart disease, and so joining me. Now we've talked

2170
01:52:52,120 --> 01:52:54,160
Speaker 10: to him before, but we will bring him back on again.

2171

Speaker 10: He is always thorough and good. He is the service

2172
01:52:57,400 --> 01:53:01,439
Speaker 10: line director of Cardiological Design for Franciscan Help. Doctor George

2173
01:53:01,520 --> 01:53:04,639
Speaker 10: Lola joins me on the program. Doctor, it's a pleasure.

2174
01:53:04,640 --> 01:53:06,800
Speaker 2: How are you good afternoon, Jake.

2175
01:53:06,840 --> 01:53:07,640
Speaker 7: Good to be back with you.

2176
01:53:08,080 --> 01:53:11,080
Speaker 10: I want to talk about this aspect. You know, we

2177
01:53:11,200 --> 01:53:13,920
Speaker 10: all talk about and think about aging and you know

2178
01:53:14,000 --> 01:53:15,760
Speaker 10: what happens when we get older and things like that.

2179
01:53:15,880 --> 01:53:18,960
Speaker 10: And I've started to hear this buzzword of heart age.

2180
01:53:19,040 --> 01:53:20,479
Speaker 10: You know, hey, your heart age, And I think, well,

2181
01:53:20,479 --> 01:53:23,040
Speaker 10: I'm fifty three, so my heart age is fifty three.

2182
01:53:23,280 --> 01:53:24,240
Speaker 2: That seems simple enough.

2183
01:53:24,520 --> 01:53:28,120
Speaker 10: But what exactly is heart age and how is it

2184
01:53:28,240 --> 01:53:31,240
Speaker 10: different from specifically the age youc on your driver's license.

2185
01:53:31,960 --> 01:53:34,400
Speaker 11: Well, this is a great question, Jake, and it's been

2186
01:53:35,160 --> 01:53:39,080
Speaker 11: asked by our patients more often nowadays. And essentially, heart

2187
01:53:39,200 --> 01:53:43,679
Speaker 11: age refers to how your heart and blood vessels appear

2188
01:53:43,880 --> 01:53:48,599
Speaker 11: based on risk factors like blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar, smoking,

2189
01:53:48,640 --> 01:53:52,320
Speaker 11: and fitness level. And it's not the number of birthdays

2190
01:53:52,720 --> 01:53:55,760
Speaker 11: you've had and so so, for example, someone who's forty

2191
01:53:55,840 --> 01:53:59,160
Speaker 11: years old might have a heart age of sixty years

2192
01:53:59,160 --> 01:54:03,920
Speaker 11: old if they have untreated high blood pressure uncontrolled diabetes.

2193
01:54:04,560 --> 01:54:09,040
Speaker 11: But the good news is that, unlike your chronological age

2194
01:54:09,120 --> 01:54:11,639
Speaker 11: or real age, heart age can improve and get better

2195
01:54:11,720 --> 01:54:12,760
Speaker 11: with the right interventions.

2196
01:54:13,479 --> 01:54:16,120
Speaker 10: And those interventions doctor, you know, I know, we talk

2197
01:54:16,360 --> 01:54:18,200
Speaker 10: to people a lot about the importance of a heart

2198
01:54:18,280 --> 01:54:20,840
Speaker 10: scan and just kind of getting that heart health risk assessment.

2199
01:54:20,960 --> 01:54:24,600
Speaker 10: But other interventions that can take place with that, how

2200
01:54:24,720 --> 01:54:28,400
Speaker 10: much of heart disease is preventable with that early intervention.

2201
01:54:30,240 --> 01:54:35,480
Speaker 11: So I would say the majority of heart disease, roughly

2202
01:54:35,560 --> 01:54:39,600
Speaker 11: eighty percent, is preventable with early identification and treatment of

2203
01:54:39,720 --> 01:54:43,000
Speaker 11: risk factors. So traditional things that a lot of people

2204
01:54:43,040 --> 01:54:46,440
Speaker 11: are aware of, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity which

2205
01:54:46,520 --> 01:54:51,760
Speaker 11: leads to instill and resisted diabetes. Obviously, smoking, poor sleeping,

2206
01:54:52,440 --> 01:54:58,440
Speaker 11: and inactivity drive most of our risk factors and cardiovascular disease. Therefore,

2207
01:54:58,480 --> 01:55:02,440
Speaker 11: addressing these risks actors early on before they have before

2208
01:55:02,520 --> 01:55:06,280
Speaker 11: patients have symptoms dramatically reduces as heart attacks, heart failure,

2209
01:55:06,600 --> 01:55:08,080
Speaker 11: and stroke later in life.

2210
01:55:08,880 --> 01:55:11,800
Speaker 10: Doctor George Loday is my guest from Franciscan Health. We're

2211
01:55:11,840 --> 01:55:16,280
Speaker 10: talking about heart longevity essentially and just you know, the

2212
01:55:16,400 --> 01:55:20,520
Speaker 10: preventative nature of it and then also the tackling of

2213
01:55:20,960 --> 01:55:23,839
Speaker 10: once you do have those issues like I do for example,

2214
01:55:23,960 --> 01:55:26,960
Speaker 10: and just being aware doctor one of those things that

2215
01:55:27,000 --> 01:55:29,200
Speaker 10: I would assume. And we're still early in the year here,

2216
01:55:29,320 --> 01:55:31,800
Speaker 10: so it's time for people to you know, it's never

2217
01:55:31,880 --> 01:55:33,240
Speaker 10: too late to say, you know what, I'm going to

2218
01:55:33,280 --> 01:55:37,800
Speaker 10: make changes, and that includes just nutritionally speaking. Is there

2219
01:55:37,840 --> 01:55:41,160
Speaker 10: anything out there from. In terms of a diet, I

2220
01:55:41,240 --> 01:55:43,760
Speaker 10: think we all know of what probably is good for

2221
01:55:43,880 --> 01:55:47,920
Speaker 10: the heart. Is there anything that actually is detrimental that

2222
01:55:48,120 --> 01:55:50,280
Speaker 10: maybe people aren't aware of, and that it may be

2223
01:55:50,400 --> 01:55:52,600
Speaker 10: time to say, you know what, start thinking about something

2224
01:55:52,600 --> 01:55:53,480
Speaker 10: different nutritionally.

2225
01:55:55,120 --> 01:55:57,560
Speaker 11: Great question, Jacob. What I would say and what I

2226
01:55:57,680 --> 01:56:01,760
Speaker 11: want our listeners to remember first and foremost, consistency in

2227
01:56:01,880 --> 01:56:06,520
Speaker 11: the diet and habits matter is more than perfection. And

2228
01:56:06,760 --> 01:56:09,200
Speaker 11: so there are a lot of things that we can

2229
01:56:09,320 --> 01:56:11,800
Speaker 11: change and it's never late. And so things to keep

2230
01:56:11,840 --> 01:56:15,960
Speaker 11: an eye on would be focusing and emphasizing whole foods vegetables, fruits,

2231
01:56:16,720 --> 01:56:21,800
Speaker 11: nuts and seeds, prioritizing lean protein, especially fish and plant

2232
01:56:21,880 --> 01:56:26,400
Speaker 11: based in plant based sources, choosing healthy fats, olive oil,

2233
01:56:26,480 --> 01:56:30,680
Speaker 11: OMEGA three, and limiting ultra processed foods, junk food, access

2234
01:56:30,680 --> 01:56:35,280
Speaker 11: sugar and refined carbohydrates. If you do those things, you

2235
01:56:35,320 --> 01:56:40,600
Speaker 11: will drastically change the long term risk of having cardiovascular problems,

2236
01:56:40,720 --> 01:56:41,880
Speaker 11: heart attacks and strokes.

2237
01:56:42,080 --> 01:56:45,600
Speaker 10: When you talk about, you know, kind of consistency is

2238
01:56:46,520 --> 01:56:50,240
Speaker 10: when somebody goes through the process here. You know, just

2239
01:56:50,320 --> 01:56:54,240
Speaker 10: for example, the different strategies are coming up with nutritionally exercise,

2240
01:56:54,320 --> 01:56:56,680
Speaker 10: all of those do you kind of evolve them as

2241
01:56:56,720 --> 01:56:59,280
Speaker 10: you go along? In other words, is what's good for

2242
01:56:59,400 --> 01:57:02,080
Speaker 10: somebody at third different than it's sixty, than an eighty,

2243
01:57:02,160 --> 01:57:02,720
Speaker 10: and et cetera.

2244
01:57:04,320 --> 01:57:07,480
Speaker 11: It is, And so the goal shifts from just adding

2245
01:57:07,600 --> 01:57:11,320
Speaker 11: years to adding healthy years. And you do that by

2246
01:57:12,920 --> 01:57:16,520
Speaker 11: changing your strategy with time. So prevention is not a

2247
01:57:16,600 --> 01:57:19,280
Speaker 11: one size fits all, so it should evolve with age

2248
01:57:19,400 --> 01:57:22,640
Speaker 11: to your point. And so in younger adults, the focus

2249
01:57:22,760 --> 01:57:28,320
Speaker 11: is lifestyle fitness, early risk of detection and pursuing aerobic exercise.

2250
01:57:28,560 --> 01:57:33,920
Speaker 11: In midlife, prevention becomes more data driven. So nowadays we're

2251
01:57:33,960 --> 01:57:37,920
Speaker 11: fortunate to have a lot of good technology. Are the

2252
01:57:37,960 --> 01:57:42,240
Speaker 11: spense so imaging biomarkers, blood work, aggressive risk modification, and

2253
01:57:42,360 --> 01:57:45,800
Speaker 11: later in life in older adults, what you need to

2254
01:57:45,880 --> 01:57:48,400
Speaker 11: focus on, what the data has been suggesting more and more,

2255
01:57:48,560 --> 01:57:52,880
Speaker 11: is preserving muscle mass, balance, vascular health, and then quality

2256
01:57:52,880 --> 01:57:56,080
Speaker 11: of life becomes just the quality of life becomes as

2257
01:57:56,200 --> 01:57:58,160
Speaker 11: important as preventing art attacks.

2258
01:57:58,880 --> 01:58:00,879
Speaker 1: How is longe eat medicine?

2259
01:58:00,920 --> 01:58:04,040
Speaker 10: Doctor George Lola is my guest from Franciscan Health on

2260
01:58:04,160 --> 01:58:06,200
Speaker 10: this feel good, good for the Heart Friday? Doctor, How

2261
01:58:06,280 --> 01:58:09,960
Speaker 10: is longevity medicine changing the way that we're kind of

2262
01:58:10,040 --> 01:58:12,400
Speaker 10: approaching all of this when it comes to heart disease

2263
01:58:12,440 --> 01:58:13,080
Speaker 10: and its prevention.

2264
01:58:14,360 --> 01:58:20,080
Speaker 11: So the field in general and including longevity, and especially

2265
01:58:20,160 --> 01:58:22,920
Speaker 11: when it comes to cardiology, is moving from reactive to

2266
01:58:23,080 --> 01:58:25,760
Speaker 11: a proactive field. So instead of waiting for a heart

2267
01:58:25,800 --> 01:58:31,920
Speaker 11: attack attack, we use different tools question like advanced imaging

2268
01:58:32,080 --> 01:58:37,320
Speaker 11: to the calcium scores, metabolic inflammatory markers, personalized risk profiling

2269
01:58:37,440 --> 01:58:40,560
Speaker 11: to reduce that risk. So this allows us to intervene

2270
01:58:40,760 --> 01:58:44,760
Speaker 11: years and sometimes decades earlier, tailing prevention to an individual

2271
01:58:44,880 --> 01:58:48,560
Speaker 11: rather than treating everyone the same doctor.

2272
01:58:48,680 --> 01:58:49,240
Speaker 1: This last one.

2273
01:58:49,280 --> 01:58:51,520
Speaker 10: We kind of touched on this in the last couple

2274
01:58:51,560 --> 01:58:55,240
Speaker 10: of answers, But to put it in simple terms, if

2275
01:58:55,280 --> 01:58:58,200
Speaker 10: there are three things that someone should really narrow in on,

2276
01:58:58,880 --> 01:59:02,240
Speaker 10: whether it be something they need to maintain doing or

2277
01:59:02,480 --> 01:59:05,280
Speaker 10: something that they need to alter to their lifestyles when

2278
01:59:05,320 --> 01:59:07,560
Speaker 10: it comes to the heart longevity, when it comes to

2279
01:59:07,680 --> 01:59:10,120
Speaker 10: keeping that heart at a young age of a heart age,

2280
01:59:10,720 --> 01:59:13,000
Speaker 10: what are three things that you would emphasize for our

2281
01:59:13,040 --> 01:59:14,600
Speaker 10: listeners If.

2282
01:59:14,520 --> 01:59:16,320
Speaker 11: You had to narrow it down to three things, I

2283
01:59:16,320 --> 01:59:19,560
Speaker 11: would say Number one, control your blood pressure and weight

2284
01:59:19,880 --> 01:59:24,000
Speaker 11: metabolic health. Number two move daily both aerobic exercise and

2285
01:59:24,120 --> 01:59:27,680
Speaker 11: strength training to preserve that muscle mass, and lastly prioritize

2286
01:59:27,720 --> 01:59:31,080
Speaker 11: sleep and stress management. They directly affect the heart, rhythm,

2287
01:59:31,080 --> 01:59:32,240
Speaker 11: blood pressure, and inflammation.

2288
01:59:33,400 --> 01:59:36,920
Speaker 10: Doctor, it's always a great conversation. It is always beneficial,

2289
01:59:36,960 --> 01:59:39,160
Speaker 10: and I want to thank all you guys because in gals,

2290
01:59:39,360 --> 01:59:42,600
Speaker 10: the number of people and I can only imagine from

2291
01:59:42,640 --> 01:59:45,120
Speaker 10: your standpoint right you're doing this every single day, but

2292
01:59:45,760 --> 01:59:47,600
Speaker 10: the number of people that do stop me and say, hey,

2293
01:59:47,640 --> 01:59:50,000
Speaker 10: you know what. I appreciate you talking about any of

2294
01:59:50,080 --> 01:59:52,640
Speaker 10: the number of different things we've talked about with Franciscan

2295
01:59:52,760 --> 01:59:56,440
Speaker 10: because it illuminated for somebody something either for themselves or

2296
01:59:56,480 --> 01:59:59,240
Speaker 10: for a loved one that they didn't think was of concern.

2297
01:59:59,360 --> 02:00:01,440
Speaker 10: They went, they got out of address, they started to

2298
02:00:01,560 --> 02:00:04,600
Speaker 10: do those early steps. That's what it's all about. And

2299
02:00:04,680 --> 02:00:07,280
Speaker 10: you guys are the ones that facilitate.

2300
02:00:06,800 --> 02:00:08,040
Speaker 2: That in your work.

2301
02:00:08,120 --> 02:00:10,480

Speaker 10: Health feel good segments. Next week another story about a

2318
02:00:54,880 --> 02:00:56,840
Speaker 10: feel good story in the world of sports here in

2319
02:00:56,880 --> 02:00:57,560
Speaker 10: Central Indiana.

2320
02:01:00,040 --> 02:01:03,560
Speaker 1: How often when you play music, Eddie, does Jake respond

2321
02:01:03,680 --> 02:01:07,200
Speaker 1: with I've seen this person in concert? Does it happen

2322
02:01:07,240 --> 02:01:08,480
Speaker 1: on a semi regular basis?

2323
02:01:09,320 --> 02:01:12,400
Speaker 4: Not that often. He doesn't automatically go to like the

2324
02:01:12,480 --> 02:01:14,280
Speaker 4: concert aspect. He goes, oh, you know this song was

2325
02:01:14,320 --> 02:01:16,000
Speaker 4: the top hit of like nineteen eighty four or something

2326
02:01:16,040 --> 02:01:18,400
Speaker 4: like that. Right, well, this was not nineteen eighty four

2327
02:01:18,640 --> 02:01:22,000
Speaker 4: or I love that song. It was closer to eighty

2328
02:01:22,080 --> 02:01:25,160
Speaker 4: four than it is present day. Just like again, of

2329
02:01:25,280 --> 02:01:27,360
Speaker 4: all of the Indiana stats that we tried it out

2330
02:01:28,040 --> 02:01:30,640
Speaker 4: that the last team to go sixteen to zero in

2331
02:01:30,680 --> 02:01:34,800
Speaker 4: a major college football season was yaleen ninety four, which

2332
02:01:34,920 --> 02:01:38,320
Speaker 4: is closer to the signing of the Declaration of Independence

2333
02:01:38,560 --> 02:01:41,800
Speaker 4: than it would be to modern day. But I saw

2334
02:01:41,960 --> 02:01:45,560
Speaker 4: Montel Jordan in concert summer of ninety five, how was it?

2335
02:01:45,880 --> 02:01:48,600
Speaker 4: At the artist formerly known as Deer Creek. He was

2336
02:01:49,560 --> 02:01:53,840
Speaker 4: one of three acts that played Boys to Men was

2337
02:01:54,080 --> 02:01:55,760
Speaker 4: the star of said show.

2338
02:01:56,280 --> 02:01:58,960
Speaker 1: I have completely spaced on who the third act that

2339
02:01:59,280 --> 02:02:02,240
Speaker 1: was we went because I was going with my girlfriend

2340
02:02:02,240 --> 02:02:04,480
Speaker 1: at the time, and we were broken up less than

2341
02:02:04,480 --> 02:02:07,400
Speaker 1: two months later. So frankly, a lot of the details

2342
02:02:07,440 --> 02:02:10,440
Speaker 1: of that show have kind of exited from my mind,

2343
02:02:10,840 --> 02:02:13,000
Speaker 1: other than I know that I saw him at Deer

2344
02:02:13,080 --> 02:02:15,720
Speaker 1: Creek in the summer of nineteen ninety five.

2345
02:02:16,400 --> 02:02:16,760
Speaker 3: There you go.

2346
02:02:17,200 --> 02:02:20,160
Speaker 1: Three one, seven, two, three nine ten seventy is the

2347
02:02:20,200 --> 02:02:23,040
Speaker 1: telephone number. John will check in at some point in

2348
02:02:23,160 --> 02:02:26,000
Speaker 1: time from Rally House, which is where he is doing

2349
02:02:26,040 --> 02:02:29,520
Speaker 1: his show between three and six o'clock. So if there's

2350
02:02:29,560 --> 02:02:31,480
Speaker 1: something you would like to talk about that we have

2351
02:02:31,640 --> 02:02:34,240
Speaker 1: not covered it on the program, now is a good

2352
02:02:34,280 --> 02:02:37,200
Speaker 1: time to get that in the only time that I

2353
02:02:37,360 --> 02:02:43,120
Speaker 1: have really mentioned the upcoming AFC and NFC championship games.

2354
02:02:43,160 --> 02:02:46,240
Speaker 1: This weekend really has been when we had Kevin Bowen

2355
02:02:46,320 --> 02:02:49,000
Speaker 1: on the show back during the one o'clock hour, So

2356
02:02:49,280 --> 02:02:52,840
Speaker 1: I guess allow me to weigh in on both of

2357
02:02:52,880 --> 02:02:57,040
Speaker 1: those things. Patriots and Broncos both fourteen and three during

2358
02:02:57,080 --> 02:03:00,960
Speaker 1: the regular season. Obviously, no Bo Nicks for the Denver Broncos,

2359
02:03:01,360 --> 02:03:03,600
Speaker 1: and I have not exactly been seeking out a lot

2360
02:03:03,640 --> 02:03:07,640
Speaker 1: of NFL coverage this week previewing the games, but when

2361
02:03:07,720 --> 02:03:10,080
Speaker 1: I have happened to catch kind of things in passing,

2362
02:03:10,800 --> 02:03:12,520
Speaker 1: one of the things that I would kind of go,

2363
02:03:12,720 --> 02:03:16,560
Speaker 1: here's how I would do this differently. Denver has a

2364
02:03:16,640 --> 02:03:19,040
Speaker 1: much better chance if Bo Nicks is the starting quarterback.

2365
02:03:19,200 --> 02:03:21,720
Speaker 1: I mean, duh. He's the starting quarterback for a reason.

2366
02:03:21,960 --> 02:03:24,760
Speaker 1: He's the guy they have invested their future in. And

2367
02:03:24,920 --> 02:03:29,000
Speaker 1: I think Bo Knicks is a good NFL quarterback at

2368
02:03:29,040 --> 02:03:32,720
Speaker 1: this point. He's not a great NFL quarterback at this point,

2369
02:03:33,000 --> 02:03:35,520
Speaker 1: but he's in year number two. He clearly has a

2370
02:03:35,560 --> 02:03:38,880
Speaker 1: great offensive mind that he is playing for in Sean Payton.

2371
02:03:39,240 --> 02:03:42,280
Speaker 1: I think he's going to continue to develop. But the

2372
02:03:42,360 --> 02:03:47,880
Speaker 1: Broncos aren't exactly here because of Bo Knicks. They are

2373
02:03:48,040 --> 02:03:51,920
Speaker 1: here because of what they have done defensively for a

2374
02:03:52,000 --> 02:03:53,080
Speaker 1: good chunk of the season.

2375
02:03:53,480 --> 02:03:54,240
Speaker 7: So yeah, it hurts.

2376
02:03:54,280 --> 02:03:58,000
Speaker 1: It's Jared Stidham and Jarrett. To say he has not

2377
02:03:58,160 --> 02:04:01,800
Speaker 1: played much would be a bit of understatement. Again, this

2378
02:04:02,000 --> 02:04:04,840
Speaker 1: is having me dance until I can pull up his

2379
02:04:05,280 --> 02:04:11,120
Speaker 1: NFL stats because they are not overly significant in terms

2380
02:04:11,160 --> 02:04:15,720
Speaker 1: of his opportunity to play. He has appeared in twenty

2381
02:04:15,840 --> 02:04:22,200
Speaker 1: games over the course of seven NFL seasons. He appeared

2382
02:04:22,240 --> 02:04:26,560
Speaker 1: in one game this regular season, and he took a knee.

2383
02:04:27,120 --> 02:04:30,800
Speaker 1: That's all he did. He got a smattering of playing

2384
02:04:30,920 --> 02:04:34,400
Speaker 1: time in the COVID twenty twenty season for the Patriots,

2385
02:04:34,920 --> 02:04:37,640
Speaker 1: played briefly. I think for Josh McDaniels will be my

2386
02:04:37,680 --> 02:04:42,000
Speaker 1: assumption in twenty two with the Las Vegas Raiders. Has

2387
02:04:42,080 --> 02:04:46,440
Speaker 1: never appeared in more than five games in an NFL

2388
02:04:46,600 --> 02:04:49,600
Speaker 1: season and has not thrown a pass in an NFL

2389
02:04:49,720 --> 02:04:54,040
Speaker 1: game since twenty twenty three. So yes, bow Knicks would

2390
02:04:54,040 --> 02:04:57,160
Speaker 1: be a better option. But it's not like I think

2391
02:04:57,280 --> 02:05:01,560
Speaker 1: that bo Knicks is the guy that has carried his

2392
02:05:01,760 --> 02:05:04,440
Speaker 1: team to this point. Like if it was the Bills

2393
02:05:04,480 --> 02:05:06,840
Speaker 1: in this game and Josh Allman got hurt on one

2394
02:05:06,840 --> 02:05:10,200
Speaker 1: of the last plays of the game. Sorry, Mitch true Bisky,

2395
02:05:10,480 --> 02:05:13,880
Speaker 1: I don't exactly like the bill chances in this one.

2396
02:05:14,560 --> 02:05:17,320
Speaker 1: You get to be at home, the unique nature of

2397
02:05:17,480 --> 02:05:22,240
Speaker 1: playing at Mile High, and again it's your defense that

2398
02:05:22,360 --> 02:05:26,080
Speaker 1: got you to this point, and you've got seven days

2399
02:05:26,200 --> 02:05:31,400
Speaker 1: to game plan for this. All that being said, I'm

2400
02:05:31,400 --> 02:05:34,040
Speaker 1: probably gonna go with the Patriots in terms of winning

2401
02:05:34,080 --> 02:05:37,520
Speaker 1: this one. Again, my level of care is not great,

2402
02:05:37,880 --> 02:05:42,280
Speaker 1: to be honest with you, but I would say Patriots

2403
02:05:42,360 --> 02:05:45,040
Speaker 1: in a low scoring game and a close game. I

2404
02:05:45,080 --> 02:05:47,680
Speaker 1: don't even know what the line is at this point

2405
02:05:47,720 --> 02:05:50,800
Speaker 1: on that one, but maybe I'd take the Broncos and

2406
02:05:50,840 --> 02:05:53,400
Speaker 1: the points, but I'd still take the Patriots to win

2407
02:05:53,920 --> 02:05:56,480
Speaker 1: out right, second game of the day, it would be

2408
02:05:56,600 --> 02:05:58,320
Speaker 1: four and a half. Four and a half, okay, I

2409
02:05:58,320 --> 02:06:00,600
Speaker 1: think it's like a field goal game right around that time.

2410
02:06:00,680 --> 02:06:02,240
Speaker 1: I think it's a one score game. So that line

2411
02:06:02,320 --> 02:06:04,120
Speaker 1: is probably not as big as I thought I was

2412
02:06:04,200 --> 02:06:07,040
Speaker 1: going to be total forty two and a half. That's

2413
02:06:07,040 --> 02:06:09,200
Speaker 1: a little bit i'd go under. I thought, yeah, I'd

2414
02:06:09,240 --> 02:06:12,400
Speaker 1: go under on that one too, all right, Rams and Seahawks.

2415
02:06:13,040 --> 02:06:16,440
Speaker 1: Obviously the Rams. We saw both these teams during the

2416
02:06:16,480 --> 02:06:24,680
Speaker 1: course of this season, Seahawks have been great. You know,

2417
02:06:24,760 --> 02:06:27,800
Speaker 1: the Colts obviously had a chance to beat them when

2418
02:06:27,840 --> 02:06:30,080
Speaker 1: they played back in the summer in philip Rivers first game,

2419
02:06:30,800 --> 02:06:35,400
Speaker 1: but didn't Seahawks at home. But it's a place the

2420
02:06:35,520 --> 02:06:39,320
Speaker 1: Rams play on a regular basis, so they're used to

2421
02:06:39,400 --> 02:06:45,160
Speaker 1: playing there. I'm probably if I go with the road

2422
02:06:45,240 --> 02:06:51,040
Speaker 1: team in game one Seahawks in a close one, I'm

2423
02:06:51,080 --> 02:06:52,760
Speaker 1: kind of torn on that one. I probably have a

2424
02:06:52,840 --> 02:06:55,840
Speaker 1: stronger feel on the AFC game than I do the

2425
02:06:56,160 --> 02:07:00,880
Speaker 1: NFC game. I'm sure John will do something similar to

2426
02:07:01,080 --> 02:07:03,640
Speaker 1: this between three and six, except he will do it

2427
02:07:03,920 --> 02:07:07,000
Speaker 1: where there are mountains of IU T shirts that you

2428
02:07:07,120 --> 02:07:09,760
Speaker 1: can go by. He joins us now for the crosstalk

2429
02:07:09,800 --> 02:07:11,840
Speaker 1: segment of the show. It is brought to us by

2430
02:07:11,880 --> 02:07:15,360
Speaker 1: our friends at Love Heating and Air Conditioning. And basically,

2431
02:07:15,760 --> 02:07:18,640
Speaker 1: while I didn't go to school with the Love family,

2432
02:07:19,160 --> 02:07:21,600
Speaker 1: they've been servicing my home for the better part of

2433
02:07:21,640 --> 02:07:25,000
Speaker 1: twenty years as well. And I guess my guess is

2434
02:07:25,080 --> 02:07:27,440
Speaker 1: Jake and ere to play tennis with Chris and John.

2435
02:07:28,000 --> 02:07:31,240
Speaker 1: I have three one seven, three five, three twenty one

2436
02:07:31,320 --> 02:07:36,800
Speaker 1: forty one LOVEHVAC dot com for more information, which Rally

2437

Speaker 12: This is called Greg Clearwater Springs, I think really just

2441
02:07:48,720 --> 02:07:50,920
Speaker 12: Street intersection right there.

2442
02:07:51,080 --> 02:07:53,080
Speaker 7: So there's a what heck?

2443
02:07:53,360 --> 02:07:57,040
Speaker 12: Haverdy's and uh an oldie right next to this place too,

2444
02:07:57,120 --> 02:07:58,960
Speaker 12: but it is packed with people.

2445
02:07:59,080 --> 02:08:01,640
Speaker 7: By the way, Greg, there is I just bought this

2446
02:08:01,720 --> 02:08:02,160
Speaker 7: for Lane.

2447

Speaker 9: There is.

2448
02:08:05,040 --> 02:08:07,280
Speaker 7: A hoodie that on the back.

2449
02:08:07,320 --> 02:08:11,320
Speaker 12: As going to Florida or coming back with a championship,

2450
02:08:11,400 --> 02:08:13,760
Speaker 12: and it's got Lee Corso driving the bus and the

2451
02:08:13,840 --> 02:08:17,120
Speaker 12: Bison on top of the bus. It is pretty awesome.

2452
02:08:17,400 --> 02:08:19,760
Speaker 12: That is a must have with Corso on it in

2453
02:08:19,840 --> 02:08:21,680
Speaker 12: the fashion of what she is. And that's one of

2454
02:08:21,720 --> 02:08:23,200
Speaker 12: the many things you got to choose from here.

2455
02:08:23,400 --> 02:08:25,000
Speaker 1: By the way, as a side note, how do we

2456
02:08:25,080 --> 02:08:27,080
Speaker 1: have daughters that are sixteen and fourteen? How did we

2457
02:08:27,200 --> 02:08:27,520
Speaker 1: get here?

2458
02:08:27,680 --> 02:08:31,040
Speaker 12: It's crazy? It is crazy. I know you feel the

2459
02:08:31,120 --> 02:08:34,200
Speaker 12: same way with Lane, she's still like eight years old.

2460
02:08:34,240 --> 02:08:36,280
Speaker 7: Of man. I explained this to her all the time.

2461
02:08:36,360 --> 02:08:38,160
Speaker 12: I go, you might as well forget it because you're

2462
02:08:38,160 --> 02:08:39,680
Speaker 12: going to be twenty three and I'm gont to think

2463
02:08:39,720 --> 02:08:44,240
Speaker 12: of you as a She started to make like adult decisions, Greg,

2464
02:08:44,360 --> 02:08:45,840
Speaker 12: and it's incredibly weird to me.

2465
02:08:46,080 --> 02:08:49,160
Speaker 1: Odd, yeah, yeah, understand that completely. All right, what's come

2476
02:09:15,440 --> 02:09:20,080
Speaker 12: on the inbound, so we need somebody with their how

2477
02:09:20,120 --> 02:09:22,280

Speaker 7: And that is Lindsay Monroe and she.

2479
02:09:24,360 --> 02:09:27,640
Speaker 1: Has out yeah, no doubt about yes you are. This

2480
02:09:27,800 --> 02:09:30,280
Speaker 1: is the difference in our six or seven year age gap.

2481
02:09:30,960 --> 02:09:33,720
Speaker 1: I grew up hearing stories of the blizzard of seventy eight.

2482
02:09:34,360 --> 02:09:35,080
Speaker 3: You lived it.

2483
02:09:35,720 --> 02:09:38,360
Speaker 1: How long were you off of school? How long were

2484
02:09:38,360 --> 02:09:41,400
Speaker 1: you stuck in your house? Eastern grade did not go

2485
02:09:41,800 --> 02:09:44,960
Speaker 1: to school for a month. Now I wasn't stuck in

2486
02:09:45,040 --> 02:09:47,920
Speaker 1: my house at all. We went out and we were

2487
02:09:47,960 --> 02:09:49,840
Speaker 1: all over the place, out of the snow. It was

2488
02:09:49,960 --> 02:09:53,160
Speaker 1: just a different time, different place, different era. But here's

2489
02:09:53,200 --> 02:09:56,640
Speaker 1: the story I have the weekend, or the time leading

2490
02:09:56,760 --> 02:09:57,080
Speaker 1: up to it.

2491
02:09:57,200 --> 02:09:59,360
Speaker 12: I had a tournament out of Bedford at the boys

2492
02:09:59,480 --> 02:10:01,920
Speaker 12: Club when we were in second grade, and we were

2493
02:10:02,000 --> 02:10:04,720
Speaker 12: playing at the Marion Powell Club in Mary in Indiana,

2494
02:10:04,840 --> 02:10:09,480
Speaker 12: and I got absolutely worked by Derreck Keyes that weekend. Well,

2495
02:10:09,520 --> 02:10:12,640
Speaker 12: I mean Greg worked. He made me cry. When I

2496
02:10:12,720 --> 02:10:15,440
Speaker 12: was eight years old. I got so worked over by

2497
02:10:15,520 --> 02:10:18,360
Speaker 12: Derek Keys. And we're on our way home and a

2498
02:10:18,400 --> 02:10:21,400
Speaker 12: lot of them stopped and spent the night in a hotel,

2499
02:10:21,720 --> 02:10:23,760
Speaker 12: just kind of wanted to hang out. And then my

2500
02:10:23,880 --> 02:10:27,920
Speaker 12: grandparents and my mom made us press forward and we

2501
02:10:28,120 --> 02:10:30,440
Speaker 12: beat the blizzard home and a lot of those folks

2502
02:10:30,520 --> 02:10:33,040
Speaker 12: got holed up in a hotel for the better part

2503
02:10:33,160 --> 02:10:34,120
Speaker 12: of a week or something.

2504
02:10:34,200 --> 02:10:34,440
Speaker 9: It was.

2505
02:10:34,840 --> 02:10:37,440
Speaker 7: It was amazing, it really was, and it's vivid in

2506
02:10:37,520 --> 02:10:37,960
Speaker 7: my memory.

2507
02:10:38,040 --> 02:10:40,560
Speaker 12: But a month long hiatus and Greg, the best part

2508
02:10:40,600 --> 02:10:42,600
Speaker 12: about it is what we did not have to make

2509
02:10:42,720 --> 02:10:45,320
Speaker 12: an hour, not a minute of that time that we

2510
02:10:45,440 --> 02:10:45,960
Speaker 12: missed up.

2511
02:10:46,080 --> 02:10:46,760
Speaker 7: It was glorious.

2512
02:10:46,880 --> 02:10:50,040
Speaker 1: If I remember right, and if I can radiocarbon date you,

2513
02:10:50,840 --> 02:10:52,960
Speaker 1: I think literally were going to start making up days

2514
02:10:53,360 --> 02:10:57,360
Speaker 1: your senior year of high school. Yeah thing, Yeah, that's

2515
02:10:57,400 --> 02:10:59,920
Speaker 1: exactly when that process. And my guess is you didn't

2516
02:11:00,000 --> 02:11:02,320
Speaker 1: make up squat for those days before you graduate Miaster

2517
02:11:02,400 --> 02:11:02,840
Speaker 1: Green just.

2518
02:11:03,080 --> 02:11:05,080
Speaker 12: Yeah, you know what, half the time I didn't even

2519
02:11:05,120 --> 02:11:07,880
Speaker 12: make it there, Greg, So yeah, I didn't make up anything.

2520
02:11:07,960 --> 02:11:11,440
Speaker 12: We didn't make up one single moment of that month

2521
02:11:11,560 --> 02:11:14,920
Speaker 12: long but yeah, because seventy there's also that too. Yeah,

2522
02:11:14,920 --> 02:11:17,600
Speaker 12: we did have smoking lines to But Greg Man, good

2523
02:11:17,640 --> 02:11:19,480
Speaker 12: to hear your voice, and thanks for being in here today.

2524
02:11:19,480 --> 02:11:19,720
Speaker 5: Brother.

2525
02:11:20,720 --> 02:11:23,080
Speaker 1: By the way, it was a great filling in for

2526
02:11:23,240 --> 02:11:27,560
Speaker 1: you on Tuesday. And secondarily, you and I haven't had

2527
02:11:27,600 --> 02:11:30,640
Speaker 1: a conversation since your trip to South Florida.

2528
02:11:30,840 --> 02:11:31,280
Speaker 3: How was it?

2529
02:11:32,720 --> 02:11:36,200
Speaker 7: It was awesome, great time. We did a lot of

2530
02:11:36,240 --> 02:11:37,200
Speaker 7: things with Bullseye.

2531
02:11:37,600 --> 02:11:40,080
Speaker 12: Kyle Kinnett is first class and you know this as well,

2532
02:11:40,160 --> 02:11:44,320
Speaker 12: put together a terrific time before everybody involved, and I

2533
02:11:44,400 --> 02:11:47,480
Speaker 12: actually got to go out on a yacht with Isaiah

2534
02:11:47,560 --> 02:11:50,720
Speaker 12: Jones's family. It was me and Jaylaw who was hanging

2535
02:11:50,760 --> 02:11:52,880
Speaker 12: out with me and Mett Gowins, who was the tripa

2536
02:11:52,960 --> 02:11:56,640
Speaker 12: a president. We met them at a seafood restaurant on

2537
02:11:56,800 --> 02:11:59,000
Speaker 12: the water in Fort Lauderdale and they roll up on

2538
02:11:59,120 --> 02:12:02,840
Speaker 12: this yacht and we all eat lunch. I drank lunch,

2539
02:12:02,880 --> 02:12:05,680
Speaker 12: they ate lunch, and then we got back on their

2540
02:12:05,800 --> 02:12:09,120
Speaker 12: yacht and went out and it was great stories. DJ Jones,

2541
02:12:09,120 --> 02:12:10,800
Speaker 12: if you don't know the backstore to him, he's a

2542
02:12:10,840 --> 02:12:13,760
Speaker 12: former Ohio State tight end. His son Isaiah didn't get

2543
02:12:13,840 --> 02:12:17,000
Speaker 12: recruited by Ohio State. Of course, there are many overtures

2544
02:12:17,040 --> 02:12:19,480
Speaker 12: now as he goes into his senior season, but he

2545
02:12:19,640 --> 02:12:22,360
Speaker 12: wants that legacy which he has earned he and his

2546
02:12:22,480 --> 02:12:25,480
Speaker 12: teammates at IU, and is going to maintain that. But

2547
02:12:25,800 --> 02:12:30,560
Speaker 12: incredible stories across the board that Isaiah Jones's dad told

2548
02:12:30,680 --> 02:12:32,400
Speaker 12: us because we went back to their house and hung

2549
02:12:32,480 --> 02:12:34,640
Speaker 12: out for a little bit too. Just very gracious letting

2550
02:12:34,720 --> 02:12:37,560
Speaker 12: us hang out with him, and it was a fantastic time.

2551
02:12:37,600 --> 02:12:40,160
Speaker 12: Hard Rocks an awesome place too. It is a great

2552
02:12:40,200 --> 02:12:41,480
Speaker 12: place to watch a football game.

2553
02:12:41,920 --> 02:12:44,720
Speaker 1: How much I can see how different it is, but

2554
02:12:44,800 --> 02:12:48,440
Speaker 1: obviously you've experienced super Bowls there. Just how different is

2555
02:12:48,480 --> 02:12:50,640
Speaker 1: it from when we were back there fifteen twenty years ago.

2556
02:12:51,400 --> 02:12:53,720
Speaker 1: Here's the weirdest thing about it. And this is the

2557
02:12:53,800 --> 02:12:56,240
Speaker 1: one thing that I noticed immediately. They don't have televisions

2558
02:12:56,240 --> 02:12:59,400
Speaker 1: in the concourse. Huh hey, when you're standing and waiting

2559
02:12:59,440 --> 02:13:01,440
Speaker 1: in line. At least where I was, I didn't see

2560
02:13:01,440 --> 02:13:03,840
Speaker 1: a television anyway. If you're ready to get beer or

2561
02:13:04,000 --> 02:13:06,040
Speaker 1: food or waiting to go to the bathroom, there was

2562
02:13:06,120 --> 02:13:06,960
Speaker 1: no TV there.

2563
02:13:07,600 --> 02:13:10,440
Speaker 12: But it is one of those I think it's reminiscent

2564
02:13:10,480 --> 02:13:13,560
Speaker 12: of the Rose Bowl. It doesn't keep going up, for example,

2565
02:13:13,680 --> 02:13:16,880
Speaker 12: like Lucas Oil Stadium does. It keeps going out right,

2566
02:13:17,080 --> 02:13:21,320
Speaker 12: so you feel like you're closer to the field even

2567
02:13:21,400 --> 02:13:24,200
Speaker 12: though you're not, because you're not looking at it from

2568
02:13:24,600 --> 02:13:26,920
Speaker 12: up above, like you're in a balcony or something like that.

2569
02:13:27,120 --> 02:13:30,040
Speaker 12: I just thought we were in the section three hundred

2570
02:13:30,680 --> 02:13:34,000
Speaker 12: and it was a great view of the game, and

2571
02:13:34,120 --> 02:13:36,720
Speaker 12: I thought every seat kind of felt like it was

2572
02:13:36,880 --> 02:13:38,400
Speaker 12: in similar fashion, Greg.

2573
02:13:38,560 --> 02:13:40,680
Speaker 1: I know you well enough to know you can operate

2574
02:13:40,760 --> 02:13:43,720
Speaker 1: on less sleep than most. How much sleep did you

2575
02:13:43,880 --> 02:13:45,600
Speaker 1: have Monday night into Tuesday?

2576
02:13:46,480 --> 02:13:47,520
Speaker 7: I had an hour and a half.

2577
02:13:47,640 --> 02:13:51,800
Speaker 12: And then Carl show Biz, huh show Biz calls me

2578
02:13:52,160 --> 02:13:54,280
Speaker 12: at like five point forty five and says, can you

2579
02:13:54,360 --> 02:13:56,520
Speaker 12: go on with Tony here in about an hour, and

2580
02:13:56,600 --> 02:13:58,400
Speaker 12: I said, thanks a lot show Biz for that, but

2581
02:13:58,520 --> 02:14:00,960
Speaker 12: honestly shout out to the show because I would have

2582
02:14:01,080 --> 02:14:03,560
Speaker 12: absolutely missed the bus to the airport, There's no.

2583
02:14:03,640 --> 02:14:04,200
Speaker 7: Doubt about that.

2584
02:14:04,440 --> 02:14:07,520
Speaker 12: So sho biz show Biz got me on with Tony

2585
02:14:07,600 --> 02:14:10,520
Speaker 12: Katz and then I also made the transit bus on

2586
02:14:10,640 --> 02:14:12,840
Speaker 12: time to get back to the airport. But yeah, about

2587
02:14:12,840 --> 02:14:14,520
Speaker 12: an hour and a half a greg, I met the

2588
02:14:14,720 --> 02:14:16,080
Speaker 12: entire town of Zionsville.

2589
02:14:16,120 --> 02:14:16,720
Speaker 7: While I was there.

2590
02:14:16,840 --> 02:14:20,640
Speaker 12: There was nobody in Zionsville. Everybody was in South Florida

2591
02:14:20,680 --> 02:14:23,760
Speaker 12: from Zionsville. But it was a great group. The Diplomat

2592
02:14:23,920 --> 02:14:27,080
Speaker 12: is a destination for you in South Florida, without question,

2593
02:14:27,280 --> 02:14:30,560
Speaker 12: going on vacation Hollywood Beach, Florida, the Diplomat is a

2594
02:14:30,640 --> 02:14:33,760
Speaker 12: great place. There was a Publix in a block away,

2595
02:14:33,880 --> 02:14:37,000
Speaker 12: so I was loaded with cottage cheese from publics.

2596
02:14:37,040 --> 02:14:37,280
Speaker 3: I was.

2597
02:14:37,400 --> 02:14:39,480
Speaker 7: I was all good, man, it was glorious.

2598
02:14:39,120 --> 02:14:41,920
Speaker 1: Half fun. A rally house, buddy, be good, thank you pal,

2599
