1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,080 Speaker 1: Obviously unbelievable college game. Texas was fantastic. I thought both 2 00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:08,520 Speaker 1: teams deserve to win. Trey mount Mark was big time 3 00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:09,400 Speaker 1: shot clock. 4 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 2: Down the five. 5 00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 3: Mart's gonna pull it the LEXTI kiss in. He's a 6 00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:16,640 Speaker 3: big shot taker, not a big shot maker. 7 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 4: Swain made a hell of a play at the end 8 00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:18,680 Speaker 4: of the game. 9 00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:21,279 Speaker 5: Sway turns a corner, swayed on. 10 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:27,280 Speaker 3: One May Texas he's a chis tied with. 11 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 2: A free throw. 12 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 1: I thought our three seniors here really hung in there, 13 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: and I thought we got good effort off our bench. 14 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,480 Speaker 4: Our guys kept their composure. We got a good shot 15 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:35,200 Speaker 4: there at the end. 16 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:37,840 Speaker 6: Eleven seconds to go, clock ticking. Here comes Braden Smith 17 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:41,239 Speaker 6: over the timeline left or right, bakes the screen from 18 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 6: paupland or in coming downhill. Braden Smith shooting at Banker. 19 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 7: No good tip here, takeoffing, then he tipped it into 20 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 7: the basket with point seven to play, point seven to 21 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 7: play free quarter court shot for Texas is no good 22 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 7: and the Blue Boy the Makers hard headed to the 23 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:04,920 Speaker 7: lea eight thanks to the tipp in from Tay Paffinren 24 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 7: with seven. 25 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 5: Tenths of a second, remating and honestly left the hand. 26 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 8: I thought it was in, so I was kind of 27 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 8: like hopping, like kind of like excitedly just I was like, yeah, 28 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 8: that's it. And then it took a weird balance and 29 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 8: it was off, and then I was standing under the 30 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 8: ram and Trey tipped it perfectly, and I was just 31 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 8: like thank God, like thank god. 32 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 9: That one coach always says that, you know, it's not 33 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 9: the sometimes a lot of times it's not the first 34 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 9: shot that goes. It's those tip ins at the end 35 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 9: of games. Like he said that, you know, my four 36 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 9: years here, so it's kind of cool to, you know, 37 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 9: actually experience that. 38 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 10: It's how it sounded last night, Matt Paynter. You heard 39 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 10: from Rob Blackman, the voice of the boiler Makers. You 40 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,639 Speaker 10: heard from and then Braden Smith talking about that final 41 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 10: shot and the hero of the game, amongst many Trey 42 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 10: Kaufman Wren as the Purdue boiler Makers, in a typical 43 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 10: Sweet sixteen slugfest, advanced their way now to within forty 44 00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 10: minutes away. 45 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 5: The final four. 46 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 10: Here in Indianapolis, Indiana, gonna aftern into you on a Friday. 47 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 10: My name is Jake Quarry Eddie Garrison back in the 48 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,519 Speaker 10: saddle after yesterday's adventures in Cincinnati, which we'll get to later. 49 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 10: But there is a lot to today celebrate about Purdue, 50 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 10: but also look forward. And that's the thing about this 51 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 10: NCAA Tournament, not just this year's NCAA Tournament, but the 52 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 10: tournament in general. In order to win a national championship 53 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 10: in college basketball, I don't care who you are, I 54 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 10: don't care how dominant you are. Sometimes you need a 55 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 10: little bit of luck. Sometimes you just need to think, 56 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 10: you need things to bounce your way. And that's not. 57 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 5: To say. 58 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 10: That luck is what got Purdue there last night. But 59 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 10: sometimes when a team wins it all, what do I 60 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 10: always say? A lot of times that teams up on 61 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 10: the podium, the confetti's falling, and you look back at 62 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 10: a moment in the season, a moment in the postseason, 63 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 10: and you think about how closely it could have been denied, 64 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 10: how close they were to losing a key game. No 65 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 10: matter what team you're talking about, was that last night's 66 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 10: for Purdue. 67 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 5: We'll see. 68 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 10: But as I watched that game, and I watched that 69 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 10: and I don't know about anybody else, but the television 70 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 10: angle on the tip back by Trey Kaufman Renn I 71 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 10: couldn't tell that it went through. I was only able 72 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,119 Speaker 10: to determine. I can't be the only one with this. 73 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 10: I was only able to determine that the putback went 74 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 10: in because of the reaction of the rest of the team. 75 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 10: The reaction was still one, even Trey Kaufman Wren's reaction 76 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 10: not unlike what I had mentioned when Iowa knocked out Florida. 77 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 10: You can tell a team that is mature and well 78 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 10: coached by their immediate and initial reaction in key moments. 79 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 10: And last night, when that ball went through the basket, 80 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 10: Fletcher Lawyer put both arms up, but he was three 81 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 10: quarters the way back, right at the top of the 82 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 10: key and retreating because of defense. And everyone immediately turned 83 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 10: to get into defensive position before the timeout with point 84 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 10: seven left, or I guess it wasn't even a timeout. Really, 85 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 10: they got the ball in, that's what it was in 86 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 10: the point seven, but everybody was immediately getting into the 87 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 10: defensive position. 88 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 5: But I thought what was key was this. 89 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 10: There are two ways, really in twenty twenty six to 90 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 10: build a championship team, to put together a roster that 91 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 10: can win you a national championship, probably three ways. Actually, 92 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 10: one of them is to go with the Fab five 93 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 10: kind of thing of we're going to go out like 94 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 10: Kentucky did with the platoon system that year. We're going 95 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 10: to go and just get five to eight, you know, 96 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 10: five star recruits, put them all together and just overpower you. 97 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 10: That team didn't win at all, I realize, but you 98 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 10: get what I'm saying. Another way, of course, is to 99 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 10: mix together a roster that has elite level freshman talent 100 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 10: that you know, we saw it last night with Arkansas, 101 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 10: even though Arkansas season came to an end, but we 102 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 10: know how good a Cup is, for example, and certainly 103 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 10: if you look at Arizona produced next opponent, you get 104 00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 10: a team that has absolutely ice water in their veins, 105 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 10: shooting the ball to sixty five percent clip in the 106 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:10,919 Speaker 10: tournament freshmen with talented freshman players, and then intermix that 107 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 10: with veteran players and size and athleticism across the board. 108 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 10: And then there's the way that Purdue has done it. 109 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 10: And I thought last night that play at the end 110 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 10: of the game perfectly summarized everything that we talked about 111 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 10: yesterday on why if you appreciate the game of basketball, 112 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:39,039 Speaker 10: if you appreciate the NCAA tournament, if you appreciate and 113 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 10: life in general, the concept of working together, understanding people, 114 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:54,479 Speaker 10: meshing personalities, and finding people around you that offset your 115 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 10: weaknesses while you also see that they can take advantage 116 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 10: of and bring out your greatest strengths. And sometimes that 117 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 10: takes time. I was at dinner last night before as 118 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 10: the game was starting, we went out to watch the game. 119 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 10: Two guys sitting next to me Purdue fans. One of 120 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 10: them asks me this trivia question, and I'm assuming I 121 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 10: didn't fact check it, but I'm assuming that this is correct. 122 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 10: As a matter of fact, they may have mentioned it 123 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 10: on the broadcast that Fletcher Lawyer and Braden Smith are 124 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 10: the only two teammates in NCAA history to start every 125 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 10: game of their four year career together on the floor. 126 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 10: That I may that may be wrong. There might have 127 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 10: been a game or two where they didn't or one 128 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 10: of them missed it. I don't know, but it's believable enough. 129 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 10: I'll say that because of the fact that they have 130 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 10: been great players since the time they arrived at Purdue 131 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 10: and stepped on the floor as freshmen. But the way 132 00:07:55,240 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 10: that Purdue has built their program is through getting guys 133 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 10: to come in that buy in, that as Elliott Bloom 134 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 10: told us on Wednesday, guys that understand that they can 135 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 10: be part of something that's bigger than themselves, and guys 136 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 10: that understand that you have teammates that are there to 137 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 10: lift you when you don't have a great game or 138 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,239 Speaker 10: to offset what it is that is a weakness of yours. 139 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 10: Braydon Smith has not Let's be real here, He's not 140 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 10: had a great tournament. He's played well, but he's not 141 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,719 Speaker 10: played necessarily at the high level of well that he 142 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 10: has played over the totality of his career. But when 143 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,560 Speaker 10: it mattered most, he made some plays last night. Don't 144 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 10: get me wrong there, but think about the final play. 145 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 10: That final play last night, That final play last night, 146 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 10: and what lifted Purdue into the Elite eight represents and 147 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 10: encapsulates in symbolizes right there within a snow globe, everything 148 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 10: about Matt Painter's program and what Purdue is. You have 149 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 10: three guys on the floor right there, all of which 150 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 10: were involved in from the time that they got the 151 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 10: ball and moved down on that final play. Everyone in 152 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 10: the building knows that it's going to go into Braden 153 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 10: Smith's hands, and then it's a matter of whether he 154 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 10: decides to take it to the basket, paull it, you know, 155 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 10: whatever it might be. And he had previously scored by 156 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 10: getting to the basket, and so he opts to do 157 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 10: that again. 158 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 5: Now this is where. 159 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 10: Method number three of how you build Championships comes into play. 160 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 10: Dennis Robman is arguably the greatest rebounder in the history 161 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 10: of the NBA, at least in the modern era. And 162 00:09:54,120 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 10: Dennis Robin once was sitting at a bulls practice. Jordan 163 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 10: was baiting Ron Harper and Tony Koo coach and Scottie 164 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 10: Pittman in the games of Horse and etc. And Robbin's 165 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 10: sitting on the bench staring and eventually Somebody's like, oh, 166 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 10: Robin's shot is so broke, He's not even gonna get 167 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 10: out there and play Horse or twenty one or whatever 168 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 10: they were playing with the other guys. And Robin's like, No, 169 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 10: what I'm actually doing here is I'm studying. What do 170 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 10: you mean you're studying. I'm studying where the ball comes 171 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 10: off the rim with each player's shot, depending on where 172 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 10: they shoot it, so that I best can position myself 173 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 10: to rebound in game situations and anticipate where the ball 174 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 10: is going to be now that's not exactly what happened 175 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:54,839 Speaker 10: with Trey Kaufman Wren. Trey Kaufman Wren simply understood where 176 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 10: to be in case that ball went off the very 177 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 10: front of the rim. But two guys in Trey Kaufman 178 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 10: Wren and Braiden Smith. Braiden Smith who has more assists 179 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 10: than anybody in the history of college basketball, and his 180 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 10: first and his record breaker both were to Trey Kaufman Whn. 181 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 10: These are two guys that totally understand, without even thinking 182 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 10: about it, where the other's best area that they need 183 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 10: to get things done is, and how to clear out 184 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 10: of that area and set themselves up to help out 185 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 10: or save the moment should it go awry. Didn't go 186 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 10: awry per se by Braden Smith missing that shot, but 187 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:43,599 Speaker 10: Trey Kaufman Wren knew and anticipated exactly not only what 188 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 10: Braiden Smith was going to go, but also theoretically where 189 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 10: the basketball was going to go, and he was able 190 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 10: to get that tip in. And these are two players 191 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 10: that now are part of the winningest group of seniors 192 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 10: in the history of prtdue basketball. So it is only 193 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 10: fitting that at the end of that game it would 194 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 10: be on display for everyone that teamwork and understanding in 195 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:15,640 Speaker 10: symbiotic working alongside one one another and a trust that 196 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 10: comes on the floor would be what won that game 197 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:23,960 Speaker 10: for Purdue, and Texas played outstanding. Give Texas credit. That 198 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 10: Texas game last night looked a little bit like the 199 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 10: Ryan Klin Purdue game against Tennessee and the fact that 200 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 10: it was just a back and forth slugfest. Now, you 201 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 10: didn't have anybody like Purdue that caught that lightning at 202 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 10: a bottle per se. Tennessee continued to make shots each 203 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 10: and every time they needed to make shots and answer 204 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,199 Speaker 10: and keep Purdue on their heels a little bit. 205 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 11: Tramont Mark last night, Jake, I mean that dude was 206 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 11: so locked into the zone, Like on all those makes, 207 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 11: they weren't even touching the rim. It felt like it 208 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 11: was just all net every single time. 209 00:12:53,480 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 10: Yeah, And like, and who was the guy for Tennessee. 210 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 10: I can't believe I forgot his name? Admiral what was 211 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 10: his last Mertal Scofield? Admiral Scofield. Yeah, you know he 212 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 10: was kind of the same way in that game, right, 213 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 10: But you Purdue had to find they had to dig 214 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 10: deep to find ways to make little runs. And another 215 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 10: thing that happened last night late in the game. You know, 216 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 10: Meyer misses what four free throws? 217 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 5: Is that right? 218 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 11: I can't remember for it was four or not. I 219 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:28,079 Speaker 11: know he missed too late. 220 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 10: And after the game. And you could critique this if 221 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:38,719 Speaker 10: you'd like. There are always guys in basketball. You will 222 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 10: hear people talk about it and they'll say, you know, 223 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 10: that's a guy that if we lost but he scored 224 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,839 Speaker 10: twenty five, he was happy on the bus. But if 225 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 10: we won and he had seven and went three to ten, 226 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 10: he's sulkin. You never want guys like that on your bus. Now, 227 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 10: you could critique this if you'd like. I take it 228 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 10: the other way, and that is the fact that after 229 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 10: the game he missed four free throws and was clearly 230 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 10: down on himself and was clearly almost despondent over the 231 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 10: fact that when his team needed at most, he missed 232 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 10: those free throws, and you could tell how bad that 233 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 10: hurt him. But one of the things he said was 234 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 10: the biggest takeaway in totality of what I'm saying, and 235 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 10: he said, I need to deliver there, and I'm paraphrasing, 236 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,560 Speaker 10: I need to be able to make those shots. But 237 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 10: that's why it is so beneficial that we have such 238 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 10: a great team that all were able to come together 239 00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 10: and lift up where I wasn't able to deliver. And 240 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,800 Speaker 10: that's exactly why Purdue is now in the Elite eight. 241 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 10: Not because they went out and bought themselves some dynamic score, 242 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 10: not because they went out and used nil money to 243 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 10: just accumulate three players out the top twenty five, and 244 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 10: now they're starting to band together. What you saw last 245 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 10: night is the representation of what many people have always 246 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 10: loved about college basketball teams. That when a guy's a sophomore, 247 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 10: he said, man, I can't wait to see how good 248 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 10: he's going to be as a senior. Players that have 249 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 10: been through thick and thin, and Elliott Bloom talked about 250 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 10: the fact that this Purdue team, when they went out 251 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 10: west and lost, came back lost a tight one at 252 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 10: home and a total disappointment to Illinois, realized that perhaps 253 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 10: the Big Ten championship in the regular season had gotten 254 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 10: away from them, so they had to regroup themselves. They 255 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 10: had to regroup themselves in order to say, let's just 256 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 10: go into the Big Ten tournament and play well to 257 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 10: improve our seeding in the NCAA tournament. And it bands 258 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 10: together and they win the Big Ten tournament, they get 259 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 10: that two seed, and now here they are forty minutes 260 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 10: from coming back. Now they've got a monumental task now 261 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 10: in Arizona. Arizona is big, Arizona is physical, and some 262 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 10: of Arizona's strengths are the same of those of Purdue. 263 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 10: They have size inside, they have muscle inside, and don't 264 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 10: sleep on the muscle inside of Purdue. I thought, personally, 265 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,160 Speaker 10: and I thought more should have been made of it. 266 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 10: And I'm sure that Bobaraski or someone else, you know, 267 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 10: and I've mentioned before, I narrate. I do the voiceover 268 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 10: work for many of the instructional videos of NCAA officials 269 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 10: for the website that they have to use to log 270 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 10: in at request and find out their next game assignment 271 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 10: and airs of officiating from the week before. So I 272 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 10: occasionally do the voiceover work for that, and they send 273 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 10: me the script. I don't see the plays. I only read, 274 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 10: and I don't know the teams, but I just read 275 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 10: these scripts. Eddie, You've been you know, victim to sitting 276 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 10: there when I'm doing this before. Oh yes, And it 277 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 10: is so detailed that my days of saying like that guy, 278 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 10: that's a terrible call. The rules of college basketball and 279 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 10: everything that goes into knowing plays are so intricate that 280 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 10: my days of emphatically saying that something was wrong are 281 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 10: over with. But there are some plays where I'm like, 282 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,879 Speaker 10: I'm surprised that more people didn't question that, and it 283 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:27,879 Speaker 10: probably was the right call, but I'd like to know 284 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 10: why it was, And usually then you read the rules 285 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,479 Speaker 10: and you go, okay, it was I thought the foul 286 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 10: on Cluff that fouled him out of the game. I 287 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:37,959 Speaker 10: didn't see the contact. It looked to me like he 288 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:42,439 Speaker 10: was moving alongside and kept straight up and did not 289 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 10: impede direction, and there was no contact there. That to 290 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 10: me felt like a whistle that was blown because normally 291 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 10: you anticipate a foul there. 292 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,760 Speaker 5: And I may be wrong, but. 293 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 10: What was not a foul at the end of the 294 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 10: game that several people I have seen point this out 295 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 10: or or talk about, was Trey Kaufman Wrehn getting himself 296 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 10: in position for that putback. He was not pushing someone. 297 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 10: He didn't use two hands and push him out of 298 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 10: the way. He used his lower body to basically box 299 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 10: out and screen in position for a rebound. It doesn't 300 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 10: it seemed odd because usually when a guy is boxing out, 301 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,879 Speaker 10: he's boxing out, not boxing in. But Kaufman Wrehn was 302 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 10: basically he was boxing in. In other words, he's pushing 303 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,399 Speaker 10: him down lower towards the basket because he knows the 304 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 10: ball is going to carr him off the front of it. 305 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 10: Dennis Rodman anticipating and understanding where teammates and where the 306 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,400 Speaker 10: ball is going to be based on where they're shooting 307 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 10: it and their tendencies as a player. Because you've been 308 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 10: on the floor with this guy for four years, because 309 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,040 Speaker 10: you were the first person to catch an assist from him, 310 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 10: and you were the one that caught an assist from 311 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,720 Speaker 10: him four years later when he became the most prolific 312 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 10: distributor in the history of college basketball. That is symbiotic teamwork, relationship, understanding, 313 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 10: that's completing each other's sentences on a basketball floor. That's 314 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 10: exactly what that is. And so Kaufman Rhan and that 315 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 10: situation at the end of the game, what you saw 316 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 10: right there was a five second snippet of everything about 317 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 10: Purdue basketball. It was fundamental, it was clean, It was 318 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 10: doing it the way that you're supposed to do it, 319 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 10: and understanding and reacting to the way your teammate is 320 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,479 Speaker 10: playing because you know exactly where he's going to be. 321 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 10: And Braden Smith knows as he's driving the lane there 322 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 10: as everybody in that building does that if he's not 323 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 10: able to convert on that play, that everybody else is 324 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,879 Speaker 10: going to have his back. And so now Purdue is 325 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 10: in the Elite eight, and now we look forward to 326 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 10: Arizona and what they're going to see against Arizona and 327 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 10: what they need to do. The NCA Tournament is the 328 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 10: greatest tournament in sport, partially because of its random nature. 329 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 10: And it looks to me like Arizona is playing as 330 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 10: well as anybody in the country and anybody in this tournament. 331 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,959 Speaker 10: But then again, so too did we think that of Houston. 332 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,320 Speaker 10: I thought Houston. What did we say with Brandon Gotton 333 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 10: last week? Houston was unbelievable their defense, But Brandon said 334 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 10: up mac Ingles said it yesterday. I worry about their 335 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 10: tendency to go dry offensively, and you can't do that 336 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,679 Speaker 10: against Illinois, who was I mean their ability to space 337 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 10: and hit shots. And we've seen that over the course 338 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 10: of the year from Illinois. If Illinois is able to 339 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 10: do that for three more games and shoot like they 340 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 10: did last night. Then you've got to really look hard 341 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 10: at Illinois. But what if their shots for one game 342 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 10: go away. That's the magic of this tournament is now 343 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,439 Speaker 10: you just don't know from one game to the next 344 00:20:56,520 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 10: with some teams, just how it's going to go. Eddie, 345 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 10: you sent me a video yesterday of a dub truck 346 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 10: honk and a horn, and then another of what I 347 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 10: think was our coworker Joe Copple, who had he was 348 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 10: wearing tube socks to his knees. 349 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 5: Joe Coppa, right, is that right? 350 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 11: I don't know if they were tubesocks to his knees, 351 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 11: but yeah. 352 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 5: Was he wearing loafers of socks. 353 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,199 Speaker 10: Joe Coppa was at Red's opening day and actually he 354 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 10: looked like actually he looked like one of the auxiliary 355 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 10: characters in European Vacation. But that's the beauty of opening day. Rights, 356 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,239 Speaker 10: go be a kid again. How was it, Eddie? Your 357 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 10: first picture to Red's opening day with. 358 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 11: So many people It was almost comparable to win like 359 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 11: the super Bowl party was going on downtown Andy, Like 360 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 11: there's that many people there. It was. It was insane. 361 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 11: That was a blast. Learned a couple lessons along the 362 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 11: way in terms of arrival, how to navigate through the 363 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 11: entire day, so that whenever we go next time, I 364 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:02,679 Speaker 11: am now better prepared. I knew it was big, but 365 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 11: I until you get there, You're like, oh my goodness. 366 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 5: Would you do it again? 367 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 12: Oh? 368 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 11: Yeah, absolutely, I would do it again, except I actually 369 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 11: go to the game this time. 370 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 5: You didn't go to the game.

As I was putting 416 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 10: in the credit card nine times over, it just kept 417 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 10: saying waiting to connect, waiting to connect. 418 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 5: I filmed it. 419 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 10: I have a one minute and thirty four second video 420 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 10: of it just saying waiting to connect, waiting to connect. 421 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:24,000 Speaker 10: I eventually put a note in my dashboard that says 422 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 10: the connect that the box is not connecting. I cannot 423 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 10: pay and the mobile app is not recognizing this parking spot. 424 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 5: I come back to my car. 425 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,639 Speaker 10: The guy is at the box has given me a 426 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 10: ticket and he says, you're not wrong though the whatever 427 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 10: it's satellite or Wi Fi, whatever the connection is for 428 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 10: the connectivity of the box, He's like, it's not connecting 429 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 10: to the server, so you cannot make payment here. So 430 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:50,399 Speaker 10: I've already given you a ticket, but you need to 431 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 10: go on this website and dispute the ticket. And I 432 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 10: will actually have already put in that this box was 433 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 10: not working, so it should they should have the information. 434 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:00,920 Speaker 5: And here's the box number. 435 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 10: I actually last night and I know, listen, the ticket 436 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:04,399 Speaker 10: is twenty dollars. 437 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 5: I get it. I love the city of Indianapolis, especially 438 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 5: if it's going to pay for the potholes. I'm cool 439 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:08,679 Speaker 5: with it. 440 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 10: But at the same time, I'm like, but I tried 441 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,919 Speaker 10: to pay at the time, and now you're giving me 442 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 10: a twenty dollars ticket. So I went online and filed 443 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 10: an official dispute, if you will, at the advice of 444 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:22,880 Speaker 10: the clok I mean, he told me. He's like, yeah, 445 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 10: I totally get it. You just need to go on 446 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 10: here to And I also submitted video as part of 447 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 10: my evidence upon their request. Now, but then when you 448 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 10: do that, it says fore warning, if you're filing this 449 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 10: claim and it turns out to be fraudulent or you 450 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 10: don't show up in court, you're going to be fined 451 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 10: twenty five thousand dollars. Now that seems extreme. It seems 452 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 10: a bit accessible, it does, does it not? 453 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:46,399 Speaker 5: What do you think? Did I just buy myself a 454 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 5: twenty five thousand dollars. 455 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 11: I don't know. 456 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 5: I was like, wait a minute, do I just And 457 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:52,680 Speaker 5: then I'm like, do I just pay the twenty dollars? 458 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 5: I'm like no. But based on the principle here. 459 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 2: He told me. 460 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:57,399 Speaker 5: He told me, Look, it's going to be in the 461 00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 5: notes here when they get to it. So I'd like 462 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:02,479 Speaker 5: if anybody knows the answer to that, let me know, 463 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 5: because if I'm gonna pay, I need to start saving up. 464 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 5: If the fine is going to be twenty five grand. 465 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:10,360 Speaker 11: You mean all these IndyCar races, they don't pay them. 466 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 11: They know one race? Yeah, I know. Darrek makes a 467 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:15,439 Speaker 11: joke all the time that he's seen your W two 468 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 11: from IndyCar. 469 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,400 Speaker 10: So that's all from my retirement buddy, Okay.

And I thought, okay, Sti's had an album 490 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,199 Speaker 10: called Pieces of Eight. And then of course you know 491 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 10: Eminem I'm sure has a ton of eight mile references, 492 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:30,160 Speaker 10: which is cool. And I thought about my favorite of 493 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:38,399 Speaker 10: every television theme song, aside from instrumentals like the Monday 494 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 10: Night Football theme or the This Week in Baseball theme 495 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 10: of actual lyric television theme songs of yesteryear, my all 496 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:54,160 Speaker 10: time favorite is the song for eight is Enough, Love 497 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 10: It and eight is Enough. Fictionally took place in Sacramento, California, 498 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 10: which is just about two and a half hours from 499 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 10: San Jose, where last night Purdue put themselves into. 500 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 5: The Elite eight. 501 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 10: But then I thought maybe that was inappropriate, Eddie, because 502 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,399 Speaker 10: eight is not enough if you're Purdue, eight is not enough. 503 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 10: This isn't enough this program and it's fabulous what they've done, 504 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 10: and it's a tremendous accomplishment. Anytime you make the Elite eight, 505 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:32,479 Speaker 10: it's a great accomplishment, but the reality is you always 506 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 10: want a little more. This is a team that has 507 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 10: been in the National Championship Game, and it's a team 508 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 10: that has been to this point in the tournament obviously 509 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 10: as a program before. But because this group who have 510 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 10: now played more games than or one, I should say, 511 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 10: more games than anybody in Purdue basketball history, the seniors 512 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 10: have the winningest group in Purdue history. Eight is not enough. 513 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 10: If they do not beat Arizona, then yes, we will 514 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 10: say that was a heck of a year. They won 515 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 10: the Big Ten Tournament, they spent the better part of 516 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 10: their upper classmen years ranked number one or ranked within 517 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 10: the top five. 518 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 5: They got to the Elite eight. 519 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 10: Tremendous accomplishments, but at the beginning of the year, the 520 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 10: benchmark expectation was Final four in Indianapolis, and so that 521 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 10: pressure to an extent or that expectation is a hurdle 522 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 10: other than the fact that I think that they're just 523 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 10: really mature players and I'm going to get to that 524 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 10: maturity as it was exhibited by Trey Kaufman Renn in 525 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:45,959 Speaker 10: just a second. But Arizona and what they represent and 526 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 10: what they do. Arizona if you watched against Arkansas, and 527 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 10: Arkansas is super talented, especially in their backcourt, But what 528 00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 10: I saw with arazon Zona was their ability not just 529 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 10: to utilize their size and their physicality inside. Is physicality 530 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 10: a word or is that a made up sports word? 531 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 10: It's a word like in radio we have efforting. Is 532 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 10: efforting a word we say, like, you know, we're efforting that? 533 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 11: I believe. I believe efforting is a word. 534 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 10: Yes, Sometimes I think it just feels like a made 535 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 10: up word. And physicality as well, I guess that's better 536 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 10: than physicalness. 537 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 11: Efforting is a non standard word. 538 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:31,040 Speaker 5: Non standard. 539 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 10: Okay, that means that it's standard only within our niche 540 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 10: What about physicality? 541 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 5: Is that non standard or standard? 542 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 11: That is a standard? 543 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 5: Okay? 544 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,719 Speaker 10: Good, Okay, Well I'm glad I'm using standard words. But 545 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:48,360 Speaker 10: the physicality of Arizona is something that Purdue is going 546 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 10: to have to try to match. And Purdue can be physical, 547 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 10: don't get me wrong, But I. 548 00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 11: Think something that Arizona does really well, Jake, that's been 549 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 11: a problem for Purdue this season. 550 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 5: Then go, I know exactly where you're going is. 551 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 11: That they do such a terrific but getting into the 552 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 11: paint and getting into the middle of the floor, that's 553 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 11: when the issues were Purdue defensively have come about this year. 554 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 11: And you heard Matt Painter, I think it was in 555 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 11: one of the first time out interviews he did last 556 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 11: night with Lauren Shahati, was that we have to stop 557 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 11: letting them get into the middle of the lane, in 558 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 11: the middle of the court. That was one of the 559 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 11: keys last night for due against Texas. That's been one 560 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 11: of the keys for them and their losses at home 561 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 11: this year. And Arizona does a terrific job at getting 562 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 11: to the basket and getting in the middle of the floor. 563 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 5: They also Eddie. Here's the other thing about Arizona. 564 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 10: When they get to the middle of the floor, if 565 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 10: for some way, shape or form, the lane collapses, that 566 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 10: they're not able to get what they want, their ability 567 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 10: to then distribute quickly back to the outside they've got. 568 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 10: You know, they've got a freshman shooting sixty five percent 569 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:49,400 Speaker 10: from three in the tournament here. 570 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 11: I think it's remarkable and how consistent they have been 571 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 11: all season long, and they're starting three freshmen. 572 00:31:55,960 --> 00:32:00,080 Speaker 10: Right, I know, no question, and you wonder if eventual 573 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 10: that the moment doesn't rise up for that, But I 574 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 10: think we're past that now at this point in the 575 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 10: game itself, just because these especially this time of year, 576 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 10: nobody's a freshman, right. They played thirty games by now, 577 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 10: they played in tournaments, they played all that stuff. But 578 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 10: Arizona's ability to also get and move around for open 579 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 10: looks on the perimeter is a real challenge for Perdue 580 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 10: because that's been a Purdue weakness for certain and it's 581 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 10: one area that until last night, Perdue has done a 582 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 10: nice job here in the last two or three weeks 583 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 10: of shoring that up, and defensively they have checked more boxes. 584 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 10: But they did show some vulnerability last night. 585 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 5: Now, the other thing last. 586 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 10: Night that came into play, so to speak, I thought, 587 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:56,080 Speaker 10: and I mentioned it off the top, what we saw 588 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 10: last night from Purdue at the way that that game 589 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 10: ended perfectly encapsulated who Purdue is and why Purdue is 590 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 10: what they are. And there was something that happened after 591 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 10: the game. You know, I'm a big believer in precedent. 592 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 10: There was something that happened after that game that immediately 593 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 10: took me back to something that happened on this show. 594 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 10: Something that happened in our conversation with Elliot Bloom, and 595 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 10: I said to myself, that's it right there, right there 596 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 10: is exactly why Purdue is now forty minutes from the 597 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 10: Final Four. 598 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 5: And what Elliott. 599 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 10: Bloom mentioned just absolutely, in my opinion, it rang back 600 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 10: into my mind because I thought to myself, everything that 601 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 10: Elliott Bloom, the director of basketball operations for Purdue told 602 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:57,600 Speaker 10: us about this particular player on Wednesday, showed itself in 603 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 10: its strongest hand on Thursday night at the most important moment. 604 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 10: And we'll let you hear what I'm talking about, and 605 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,839 Speaker 10: I'll explain further that on the other side. And then 606 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 10: Rob Blackman joining us. What time did you say for 607 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,960 Speaker 10: Blackman again, Eddie, I probably the top of the hour 608 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 10: for the Voice of the Boilers, Rob Blackman, Friday edition 609 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 10: here Corying Company and the Fan. 610 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:20,359 Speaker 5: Purdue in the Elite eight. 611 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 10: Plenty of coverage of that today, Rob Blackman, Voice of 612 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:27,240 Speaker 10: the Boilers coming up just over fifteen minutes from now. 613 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 10: The game's coming down to the wire last night, and boy, 614 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 10: there were a lot of EBB and flows in that game, 615 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 10: and there were a lot of times where it certainly 616 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,239 Speaker 10: felt like Perdue was chasing a tiger by the tail, 617 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,359 Speaker 10: and you wondered if they were going to be able 618 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 10: to close it. Each time that they felt it felt 619 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 10: like they got a little breathing room. Texas would come 620 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 10: back and hit a three or a couple of threes, 621 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:54,799 Speaker 10: go on a run. Now produced down five, and then 622 00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 10: they got to come back. Now they're up one. Back 623 00:34:56,600 --> 00:35:04,719 Speaker 10: and forth, back and forth. And as I'm watching the game, 624 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 10: and I thought, a really, I just think a silent 625 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,800 Speaker 10: key to Purdue, And silent is kind of a ridiculous 626 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 10: way of saying it because the guy is a mainline player. 627 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 10: But if you were to ask people around the country 628 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,400 Speaker 10: when it comes to Purdue, you know, Brayden Smith is 629 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:28,319 Speaker 10: the guy they know about and they probably are aware of, 630 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:30,360 Speaker 10: you know, Fletcher Lawyer when he hits threes. 631 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:31,720 Speaker 5: What that does for Bruden. 632 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 10: You got to give credit to Fletcher Lawyer as well, 633 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 10: because for a guy that had struggled and people started 634 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 10: to wonder, you know, boy, in big time moments, big 635 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 10: time games, should he be you know, should be on 636 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 10: the floor. He's the defensive liability, et cetera, et cetera. 637 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 10: But with all of that said, he has really, you 638 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 10: know he has found his rhythm again. Fletcher lawyer. But 639 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 10: Trey Koffman Rehn is such and underappreciated from a national 640 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:03,800 Speaker 10: standpoint aspect of Purduees success because Braden Smith is tremendous 641 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 10: and lawyer that I just talked about, and Oscar Cluff 642 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 10: last night, certainly, on a number of occasions Cluff I 643 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 10: thought to myself, that's exactly why they went out and 644 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 10: got that guy, because of his ability to keep the 645 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 10: ball alive, keep possessions alive, or deny Texas a second 646 00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 10: look because of his rebounding last night. And there were yes, 647 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 10: I know he fouled out the fifth foul I still 648 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 10: had question about, but nonetheless there were moments where you 649 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:29,919 Speaker 10: saw why he's there. 650 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 5: But the. 651 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 10: Quiet consistency is that of Trey Kaufman Wren and his 652 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 10: ability to be effective in different ways depending on where 653 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 10: and how Purdue needs him to be. And I think 654 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 10: with any great team there is such an importance in 655 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 10: having a player that just quietly and calmly does his 656 00:36:55,280 --> 00:37:00,160 Speaker 10: job and doesn't theoretically or seemingly really worry about what 657 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 10: all goes into it. And as that game was coming 658 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:07,000 Speaker 10: down to the wire and I thought to myself, Purdue's 659 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 10: going to need some big plays down the stretch. And 660 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:14,240 Speaker 10: Braden Smith has kind of that it factor about him, 661 00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:17,480 Speaker 10: and he hit a pull up at one point that 662 00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,479 Speaker 10: he thought, Okay, you know, he's still got a little 663 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 10: bit of swag in him. Even though he is his 664 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 10: last couple of weeks, he has had some rough outings. 665 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 10: He's not been typical Braden Smith. But Kaufman Wrenn. I 666 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,880 Speaker 10: was thinking to myself, and I wasn't thinking this is 667 00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:37,359 Speaker 10: going to come down to Trey corpn Reren's gonna tip 668 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:38,960 Speaker 10: the ball up with point seven seconds off. I'm not 669 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,239 Speaker 10: saying that, but I knew that he was going to 670 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 10: be an important factor in all of it. And I 671 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 10: was just watching his body language on the floor. And 672 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 10: as Purdue's getting ready to play an Arizona team that 673 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,800 Speaker 10: gets key contribution from freshmen, and like I said, nobody's 674 00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,120 Speaker 10: really a freshman at this point in the year. But 675 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:58,120 Speaker 10: you want guys that are not afraid of the moment, 676 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,400 Speaker 10: not because they're overwhelmingly arrogant or cocky about it, but 677 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:08,400 Speaker 10: just because they have a different psychological, intellectual approach to 678 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,800 Speaker 10: the game. And as the game was coming down, to 679 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,480 Speaker 10: the wire. I kept hearing Elliott Bloom, the director of 680 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 10: basketball operations from Purdue, in my head, telling us on 681 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:21,680 Speaker 10: Wednesday about what as a person makes Trey Kaufman w 682 00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:24,960 Speaker 10: Rehn than most college basketball players. What makes him different 683 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:26,280 Speaker 10: than most college basketball players. 684 00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 13: You know, he's probably I've said this before to others, 685 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,879 Speaker 13: he's probably as unique of a young man we've ever 686 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,400 Speaker 13: had in our program. I mean, he's a philosophy major. 687 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 13: In the summer, sometimes our guys get a week here 688 00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 13: or there where they can, you know, go home and 689 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:42,240 Speaker 13: see family and kind of charge. 690 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 14: Their batteries up. 691 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:44,279 Speaker 13: We always give the guys like a week around the 692 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 13: fourth of July, and then they get some time in 693 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 13: August before we get back to school. And I remember 694 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,800 Speaker 13: asking him, I said, TK, you know, what are you 695 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:53,800 Speaker 13: doing this weekend? He goes, oh, just going camping with 696 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,799 Speaker 13: the grandparents. And I'm like, okay, I go there's an 697 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 13: answer I've never heard before from. 698 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:01,319 Speaker 5: Totally normal for a twenty one year old, right, yeah, yeah, 699 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 5: And I. 700 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 13: Think he went, you know, in one of those state parks, 701 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 13: and so then Indianda, they just kind of went and 702 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,440 Speaker 13: hung out and he did some camping, did some fishing, 703 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 13: and that's him. He's just a very He's super complex 704 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:14,600 Speaker 13: and how he looks at things, but yet he's just 705 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:15,360 Speaker 13: a simple. 706 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:19,359 Speaker 10: Guy, simple guy, complex at how he looks at things, 707 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:25,799 Speaker 10: but finds the simple, relaxing solution camping with his grandparents.

We got a good shot 819 00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:40,239 Speaker 4: there at the end. 820 00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 6: Eleven seconds to go, clock ticking. Here comes Bradon Smith 821 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:46,440 Speaker 6: over the timeline left or right, bakes the screen from 822 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:50,120 Speaker 6: Gaufman Rin coming downhill, Bradon Smith shooting at Banker, who 823 00:44:50,239 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 6: good tip here take coffin. 824 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:55,840 Speaker 7: Then they tipped it into the basket. What point seven 825 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,200 Speaker 7: to play? Point seven to play? 826 00:44:58,600 --> 00:44:58,799 Speaker 2: Free? 827 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 5: Corner court shot for Texas is no. 828 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:04,880 Speaker 7: Good and the PRU point of thinkers hard headed to 829 00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:08,680 Speaker 7: the Elite eight thanks to the tip in from Tay 830 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:12,000 Speaker 7: Puffman Rin with seven tenths of. 831 00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 5: A second, promating honestly left the hand. 832 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:16,840 Speaker 8: I thought it was in, so I was kind of 833 00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:19,879 Speaker 8: like hopping like kind of like excitedly just I was like, yeah, 834 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 8: that's it. And then it took a weird balance and 835 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:23,400 Speaker 8: it was off. And then I was standing on the 836 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:25,200 Speaker 8: ram and Tray tipped it perfectly, and I was just 837 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:27,279 Speaker 8: like thank God, like thank God. 838 00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:29,600 Speaker 9: That one coach always says that, you know, it's not 839 00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:31,879 Speaker 9: the sometimes a lot of times it's not the first 840 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,279 Speaker 9: shot that goes, it's those tip ends at the end 841 00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:36,359 Speaker 9: of games. He said that, you know, my four years here, 842 00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:38,719 Speaker 9: so it's kind of cool to you know, actually experience that. 843 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 10: Only fitting that Trey Kaufman read would see that last 844 00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:47,480 Speaker 10: play as being something that for four years he had 845 00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:50,200 Speaker 10: been told was a possibility, and then when it was there, 846 00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:53,920 Speaker 10: he was Johnny on the spot because that is so 847 00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:59,160 Speaker 10: symbolic of everything about this Purdue team, a four year 848 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,839 Speaker 10: effort now that has them two halves away, one went 849 00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 10: away from the Final four in Indianapolis. Matt Painter you 850 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:10,360 Speaker 10: heard from, as well as Braden Smith and Traycoff and 851 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:12,880 Speaker 10: Ran and of course the game winning call last night 852 00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:15,400 Speaker 10: in the Purdue Radio Network from Rob Blackman, who joins 853 00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:18,480 Speaker 10: us on the Java House col Brew Coffee guest line 854 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:22,359 Speaker 10: from San Jose, Rob, before we get into the game, 855 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 10: and also where it goes from here, I will first 856 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:30,680 Speaker 10: ask this from a television standpoint, it was almost impossible 857 00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 10: to see that that tip went through, So I give 858 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:35,279 Speaker 10: you massive kudos. I don't know what your angle and 859 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:38,400 Speaker 10: perspective was, but like from where we're watching on television, 860 00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:40,600 Speaker 10: I'm like, where did the ball go? And you were 861 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:42,760 Speaker 10: able to tell, but I would imagine it was total mayhem. 862 00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:43,759 Speaker 10: What a moment last night? 863 00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:47,520 Speaker 18: Yeah, it Wasn't it crazy? Because the ball was tipped 864 00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:50,319 Speaker 18: so perfectly at such a perfect angle. The net did 865 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:54,359 Speaker 18: not move right as you saw on television, the ball 866 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:56,640 Speaker 18: came perfectly down to the middle of the net and 867 00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:59,400 Speaker 18: didn't move the net. Yess, I could tell from my 868 00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:02,120 Speaker 18: angle was Courts sided right across from the Purdue bench, 869 00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:04,600 Speaker 18: that it had gone in the bucket. But my other 870 00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:07,680 Speaker 18: visual clue was the entire Purdue team jumping up off 871 00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:10,640 Speaker 18: of the bench. I could tell by their celebration that 872 00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 18: that thing had obviously gone in the basket. But to 873 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,840 Speaker 18: your point, I've watched the television replay a handful of 874 00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:18,160 Speaker 18: times myself, and you're right, it was hard watched on 875 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 18: television to see whether or not that bowl went in 876 00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:20,360 Speaker 18: or not. 877 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:25,360 Speaker 10: Rob you touched on something there that I want to 878 00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:29,320 Speaker 10: elaborate on, and that is that there's a great photo 879 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:31,399 Speaker 10: of Fletcher Lawyer, who of course is in the back 880 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:33,080 Speaker 10: because he was at the top of the key and 881 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 10: was retreating, and he's got his arms out when he 882 00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:39,640 Speaker 10: sees that ball go through, and Trey Kaufman Wren was 883 00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:41,879 Speaker 10: already turning, heading towards the other end of the floor 884 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:42,600 Speaker 10: and kind of gave. 885 00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:44,399 Speaker 5: It just a little bit of a fist bump. 886 00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:46,840 Speaker 10: But I thought it spoke volumes of the fact that 887 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:51,160 Speaker 10: Purdue's instant and immediate reaction was to get into defensive positioning. 888 00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:52,880 Speaker 10: Not the players on the bench, but the players on 889 00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:56,279 Speaker 10: the floor. Is that coaching or is that simply the 890 00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:58,120 Speaker 10: maturity or is it actually both? 891 00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:00,719 Speaker 14: Yeah? Of both. 892 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:05,440 Speaker 18: And look when you have a team led by mostly seniors, 893 00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:07,560 Speaker 18: not all. But let's face if the leaders on the 894 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:10,879 Speaker 18: team are the seniors and there's nothing they haven't seen. 895 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:12,840 Speaker 14: I know we've talked about this, Jake before. 896 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:14,560 Speaker 18: This is a team that has not only played for 897 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:17,719 Speaker 18: national championship I'm talking about the seniors here, but it 898 00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,080 Speaker 18: is also lost in a one sixteen game, So they 899 00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:23,759 Speaker 18: literally have been both ends of the gamut in the 900 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:26,520 Speaker 18: NCAAA tournament. The other thing I think that gets lost 901 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:29,959 Speaker 18: in this and give credit again to having a group, 902 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,240 Speaker 18: even on the bench, that has a pretty good understanding 903 00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:34,800 Speaker 18: in the game of basketball. No one on that perdue 904 00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:37,440 Speaker 18: team came out onto the floor as far as the 905 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:39,840 Speaker 18: bench players. That's been kind of a big deal in 906 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:43,320 Speaker 18: this NCAA tournament. Teams rushing the floor after last second bucket. 907 00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:46,359 Speaker 18: If you watch closely, the whole team has their arms 908 00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:49,480 Speaker 18: out holding one another back as if to say, okay, 909 00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:51,799 Speaker 18: let's not screw this up by getting a technical foul 910 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:54,880 Speaker 18: here with less than the second remaining. But to answer 911 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:58,200 Speaker 18: your KEP question directly, while it is a combination of both, 912 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:01,240 Speaker 18: I think the fact that you have some real veteran 913 00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:03,719 Speaker 18: leadership and those seniors on the floor at that particular 914 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:07,640 Speaker 18: juncture in the game speaks volumes of what that type 915 00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:09,839 Speaker 18: of experience can do for you, especially in this type 916 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:10,440 Speaker 18: of situation. 917 00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:12,719 Speaker 10: Rob, you and I, and I'm going to do a 918 00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:15,480 Speaker 10: really bad analogy here, but you know you and I 919 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:18,839 Speaker 10: both work together on the broadcast of the Indianapolis five 920 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:19,680 Speaker 10: hundred mile race. 921 00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 5: Okay, and there have been times, thank you, Eddie, there 922 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:28,239 Speaker 5: have been times. Is that the bad analogy sound? 923 00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:28,600 Speaker 12: L Eddie? 924 00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:30,040 Speaker 5: Is that what you're going with? I haven't even used 925 00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:30,359 Speaker 5: it yet. 926 00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:32,440 Speaker 11: You know, I just had well, you said you had 927 00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 11: a bad one, so I went to playing Rob. 928 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:35,680 Speaker 10: There are times at the end of the race where 929 00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 10: you will interview, say a race winner or somebody had 930 00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:41,440 Speaker 10: a great race, and they will say, look, we were 931 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:43,480 Speaker 10: able to get our car in position in the end 932 00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:47,360 Speaker 10: despite the fact that our second or third stop, the 933 00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 10: car was not handling well, it was not running well. 934 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:51,800 Speaker 10: We just had to fight through that aspect of the 935 00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:55,440 Speaker 10: race to then put ourselves back in position. Right what 936 00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:59,359 Speaker 10: player for Purdue right now do you feel like as 937 00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:02,239 Speaker 10: they go into the Elite eight is coming off of 938 00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:04,720 Speaker 10: a couple of stints that have not been their best 939 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:08,200 Speaker 10: and now the hope is that they've gotten all of 940 00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:11,200 Speaker 10: that worked out and can make the proper adjustments and 941 00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:14,440 Speaker 10: get themselves back into the form that they were through 942 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:16,000 Speaker 10: qualifying in the beginning of the race. 943 00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:19,400 Speaker 18: As crazy as it sounds, the guy that was just 944 00:50:19,560 --> 00:50:22,800 Speaker 18: named All American last week first team All American in 945 00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 18: Braiden Smith. The beauty of Braiden is even when he 946 00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:29,560 Speaker 18: has a bad game, statistically, it doesn't look like a 947 00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:32,400 Speaker 18: bad game. But you think about the game against Miami 948 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:34,120 Speaker 18: in the round of thirty two. He had a career 949 00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:36,920 Speaker 18: high eight turnovers in that game. Now he still had 950 00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:40,640 Speaker 18: eight assists and still scored the ball well, I didn't 951 00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:43,399 Speaker 18: shoot it well, but scored it well. So when it's 952 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:44,840 Speaker 18: all Sid and Denny, I think he ended up with 953 00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:46,840 Speaker 18: twelve points in that game. When it's all said and 954 00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:49,040 Speaker 18: then you're like, ah, forretty good game for Braiden Smith. Well, 955 00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 18: as far as his standards, No, not a great game 956 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:52,440 Speaker 18: for Braiden Smith. 957 00:50:53,160 --> 00:50:53,600 Speaker 14: Last night. 958 00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 18: He's six of sixteen shooting oh three from three, missed 959 00:50:56,640 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 18: a couple of free throws, yet has sixteen points, five assists, 960 00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:05,160 Speaker 18: two steals. Right, yeah, and I like I'm speaking from Brayden, 961 00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:07,719 Speaker 18: but I feel very comfortable in saying that he would 962 00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:09,719 Speaker 18: tell you the same thing. He has not had a 963 00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:13,959 Speaker 18: great NCAA tournament, but he has still been a major 964 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:17,680 Speaker 18: difference maker for this team. If he would take himself 965 00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:20,120 Speaker 18: back to that magical level, which we've seen him do 966 00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:23,239 Speaker 18: numerous times in his career, that would be the guy 967 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:26,360 Speaker 18: that could be the big difference maker for Purdue tomorrow again. 968 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:29,160 Speaker 18: He'd be the first to tay it. He hasn't been great, 969 00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:31,440 Speaker 18: now he's been good again. The beauty of an All 970 00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:35,000 Speaker 18: American Even when you're not good, you're still bordering on 971 00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:38,080 Speaker 18: great because that's what they do. But he Yeah, he's 972 00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:40,200 Speaker 18: the one guy that if he if he gets back 973 00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:42,759 Speaker 18: up to his magical level, Prdue will have a chance 974 00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:44,200 Speaker 18: to knock off Arizona tomorrow. 975 00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 10: When you look back at Arizona, I want to get 976 00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:49,800 Speaker 10: into that because Arizona I think is outstanding rob but 977 00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:51,719 Speaker 10: the tournament. The thing, it's weird, you know. I thought 978 00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:53,840 Speaker 10: Houston was playing as well as anybody in the country. 979 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:55,080 Speaker 10: And then they get a couple of days off and 980 00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:58,080 Speaker 10: they went out and they left their offense you know. 981 00:51:58,160 --> 00:51:59,759 Speaker 10: I mean I shouldn't say in Houston because they were 982 00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:00,840 Speaker 10: playing in Houston, but you know what. 983 00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:03,160 Speaker 11: I'm saying, they left it in Oklahoma City. 984 00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:06,520 Speaker 5: They did. They left in Oklahoma City, Okay? For Purdue? 985 00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:11,800 Speaker 10: Is it possible, Rob, that the best thing to happen 986 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:15,360 Speaker 10: for this Purdue basketball team was between January twentieth and 987 00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:18,279 Speaker 10: January twenty seventh, when they lost three games in a week? 988 00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:20,520 Speaker 5: Did that force them? Did that? 989 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:22,080 Speaker 10: You know, this is a team that there was so 990 00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:25,520 Speaker 10: much praise, so much expectation, and we wondered at that 991 00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:28,880 Speaker 10: point where there are chemistry problems? Were guys not getting along? 992 00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:31,480 Speaker 10: Are they just tired of one another? Did they need 993 00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:34,080 Speaker 10: to just kind of sit back and be reset? 994 00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:36,319 Speaker 14: Uh. 995 00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:40,560 Speaker 18: You not the first to ask me this question, so 996 00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 18: you'll be one of the many to get a bad 997 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 18: answer here from me. 998 00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:47,239 Speaker 14: But I don't know, I really don't know. 999 00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:49,160 Speaker 5: Or for that matter, of late February, I mean they 1000 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:50,080 Speaker 5: lost three or four, right? 1001 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:54,200 Speaker 18: Yeah, Well, look for was two of two of their 1002 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:56,320 Speaker 18: last six going into the Big Ten Tournament. For it 1003 00:52:56,480 --> 00:52:59,080 Speaker 18: was two and four limping into the Big Ten Tournament 1004 00:52:59,400 --> 00:53:03,000 Speaker 18: and now is off seven wins in a row. I 1005 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:05,319 Speaker 18: think at the end of the day, Jake, I don't think. 1006 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 18: I know winning losing regardless, Perdue just wasn't good enough defensively. 1007 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:14,279 Speaker 18: Matt Painter and the staff just kept harving that to 1008 00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:17,680 Speaker 18: the team even when they were winning games, that you're 1009 00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:20,120 Speaker 18: just not good enough defensively right now if you want 1010 00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:23,040 Speaker 18: to do something special in the month of March. Now, 1011 00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:25,719 Speaker 18: how they were able to get that point across right 1012 00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:28,000 Speaker 18: before the start of the Big Ten Tournament, I'm not certain, 1013 00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:31,239 Speaker 18: but obviously they found some type of magical elixir that 1014 00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:33,759 Speaker 18: allowed the guys to buy into being better on the 1015 00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:36,200 Speaker 18: defensive end, because that's where it's all started. 1016 00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:39,480 Speaker 14: So while it's probably. 1017 00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:42,600 Speaker 18: Easy to say, well, the losing streaks really got the 1018 00:53:42,640 --> 00:53:45,239 Speaker 18: attention to the team, I can promise you even when 1019 00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:48,640 Speaker 18: Perdue was winning, the emphasis from a coaching standpoint was 1020 00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:51,239 Speaker 18: guys were just not good enough defensively. 1021 00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:52,880 Speaker 14: We can't keep doing this. 1022 00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:55,440 Speaker 18: And it did eventually catch up the Purdue obviously, So 1023 00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 18: I would say it's really more about getting better on 1024 00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:02,120 Speaker 18: the defensive end, especially communication and concentration, which are the 1025 00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:05,439 Speaker 18: two words that coaches have been using at nauseum, really 1026 00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:07,920 Speaker 18: more about that than even just the losing, because, as 1027 00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:10,800 Speaker 18: I said, even in winning, it was pretty apparent to 1028 00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:13,279 Speaker 18: everyone involved, at least from a coaching standpoint, Purdue just 1029 00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:14,560 Speaker 18: wasn't good enough on defense. 1030 00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:16,880 Speaker 5: Rob what is their schedule today? 1031 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:19,680 Speaker 10: You know, I think when you look at you got 1032 00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:22,400 Speaker 10: to quickly turn around right and Arizona and we're going 1033 00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:25,480 Speaker 10: to get into that. But in terms of just the 1034 00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:28,840 Speaker 10: NCAA tournament and how teams handle it, you get a 1035 00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:32,240 Speaker 10: big win like that and you got to kind of regroup. 1036 00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:34,920 Speaker 5: But what does Purdue? What is the schedule today for 1037 00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:35,760 Speaker 5: Purdue basketball? 1038 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:38,719 Speaker 18: Sure, and again the beauty of having done this a 1039 00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:41,600 Speaker 18: bunch with a veteran coaching staff, this is not their 1040 00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:43,839 Speaker 18: first rodeo. They have a pretty good feel for how 1041 00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:46,680 Speaker 18: they like to handle things with an itinerary standpoint, so 1042 00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:49,480 Speaker 18: very similar to what Purdue has done in the past 1043 00:54:49,520 --> 00:54:54,200 Speaker 18: in these situations, breakfast is at nine o'clock local if 1044 00:54:54,280 --> 00:54:56,600 Speaker 18: you wanted it. If you didn't want to have breakfast, 1045 00:54:56,640 --> 00:54:59,360 Speaker 18: I'm talking players here. Obviously, fat guys like me breakfast 1046 00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:02,440 Speaker 18: all the time. But if the players wanted to wanted 1047 00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:06,880 Speaker 18: to sleep in, they could because their first mandatory thing 1048 00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:09,799 Speaker 18: will be lunch at noon, and then right after lunch 1049 00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:12,759 Speaker 18: is an hour film session from twelve thirty to one 1050 00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:15,640 Speaker 18: thirty on Arizona, and then off the arena for a 1051 00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:18,920 Speaker 18: two hour practice there. So, which is pretty standard. That's 1052 00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:22,000 Speaker 18: what Purdue has done as they you know these especially 1053 00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:24,040 Speaker 18: the last three four years where they've made deep runs 1054 00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:27,919 Speaker 18: in the tournament. That's typically been the format. Some guys 1055 00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:29,719 Speaker 18: like to get up and eat a breakfast. Some guys 1056 00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:32,320 Speaker 18: like that, we'll sleep literally until eleven forty five and 1057 00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:35,160 Speaker 18: then show up at noon for lunch. So but yes, 1058 00:55:35,280 --> 00:55:37,560 Speaker 18: that's how produce handled, at least in the last handful 1059 00:55:37,560 --> 00:55:37,959 Speaker 18: of years. 1060 00:55:38,880 --> 00:55:41,960 Speaker 10: And then in terms of the film on Arizona, you know, 1061 00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:46,040 Speaker 10: is there is there advantage to the fact that and 1062 00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:48,319 Speaker 10: I guess Arizona to the same point could sit there 1063 00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 10: and watch that game last night before they go out 1064 00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:51,440 Speaker 10: and play. But although they got you know, they got 1065 00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:54,440 Speaker 10: to worry about Arkansas at that point, Uh, Purdue can 1066 00:55:54,560 --> 00:55:56,879 Speaker 10: kick back and say, look, we know for a fact 1067 00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:58,640 Speaker 10: we're going to be playing in the game and watch it. 1068 00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:05,120 Speaker 10: Does the team like did they together watch Arkansas and Arizona? 1069 00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:07,319 Speaker 10: And in addition to that, what do you think jumped 1070 00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:08,400 Speaker 10: out at them about Arizona. 1071 00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:12,200 Speaker 18: Well, they don't really get that opportunity simply and you've 1072 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:15,000 Speaker 18: covered enough of these things. When the game is over, 1073 00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:18,080 Speaker 18: there's that thirty minute open locker room period, and so 1074 00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:20,960 Speaker 18: they're all doing the media stuff. So by the time 1075 00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:23,320 Speaker 18: all of that is done, the game after you was 1076 00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:26,279 Speaker 18: already at halftime. So now you're on the bus, you're 1077 00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:28,640 Speaker 18: back to the hotel, you have a postgame meal. You 1078 00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:31,240 Speaker 18: maybe you're able to catch the flight last five minutes 1079 00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:33,239 Speaker 18: of the game. Maybe by the time you settle in 1080 00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:35,440 Speaker 18: and get a television turned on. So I don't know 1081 00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:37,160 Speaker 18: that any of our guys had a chance really to 1082 00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:40,759 Speaker 18: watch Arizona. Now, the coaches have obviously been up all 1083 00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:44,640 Speaker 18: night watching film after film on Arizona. And then the 1084 00:56:44,719 --> 00:56:48,520 Speaker 18: coaches also, you know, again for your listeners at a 1085 00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:52,480 Speaker 18: little bit savvy about college hoops. Everybody knows everybody. So 1086 00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:54,880 Speaker 18: all the coaches are on the phone with other coaches 1087 00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:57,719 Speaker 18: who have played Arizona and said, you know, hey, what 1088 00:56:57,880 --> 00:56:59,279 Speaker 18: did you think, what worked well? 1089 00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:00,279 Speaker 14: What did not work well? 1090 00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:03,440 Speaker 18: So you know, everyone's sharing information here, which will the 1091 00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:04,520 Speaker 18: Arizona coaches. 1092 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:05,520 Speaker 14: By the way, are doing the same thing. This is 1093 00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:09,200 Speaker 14: no great secret here. But really, the first time. 1094 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:11,760 Speaker 18: The team will get a chance to look at Arizona 1095 00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:16,240 Speaker 18: from a breakdown standpoint will be at twelve thirty this afternoon. 1096 00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:20,040 Speaker 10: What is an area that from what you can tell, Robin, 1097 00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:21,720 Speaker 10: maybe it's early because they haven't had a chance to 1098 00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:24,280 Speaker 10: get into that yet. Right, But what jumps out at 1099 00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:28,360 Speaker 10: you about Arizona or strength of the Wildcats that could 1100 00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:30,160 Speaker 10: exploit weakness for Purdue. 1101 00:57:31,360 --> 00:57:34,160 Speaker 18: Well, two things, better keep them out of transition, or 1102 00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:36,520 Speaker 18: actually three things. Better keep them off the foul line, 1103 00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:38,840 Speaker 18: and you better not let them crush you in the paint, 1104 00:57:39,040 --> 00:57:41,400 Speaker 18: because that's really what Arizona is all about. They average 1105 00:57:41,440 --> 00:57:45,440 Speaker 18: eighty six points a game, they are second in the 1106 00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:48,080 Speaker 18: country and made free throw attempts because they get to 1107 00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:50,840 Speaker 18: a ligne all the time, twenty points a game from 1108 00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:53,919 Speaker 18: the free throw line. Literally a quarter of their points 1109 00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:55,480 Speaker 18: come from the foul line per game. 1110 00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:58,920 Speaker 14: And then in the paint. They are not Hopefully this 1111 00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:00,680 Speaker 14: doesn't come back to bite me. They are not a 1112 00:58:00,760 --> 00:58:03,640 Speaker 14: prolific three point shooting team. It's just not what they do. 1113 00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:07,360 Speaker 5: They have one really good red hot shooter though right now, right. 1114 00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:12,760 Speaker 18: Yes, one, and uh, you know who was it? Excuse 1115 00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:15,240 Speaker 18: me necessarily needed. Last night, they only attempted eight threes 1116 00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:18,760 Speaker 18: against Arkansas. They lived in the paint against Arkansas and 1117 00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:21,720 Speaker 18: made it look easy. So again, it's a lot easier 1118 00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:23,920 Speaker 18: for me to sit here and talk about it than 1119 00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:26,200 Speaker 18: for people to execute it on the floor. 1120 00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:27,439 Speaker 14: Much more difficult task. 1121 00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:30,919 Speaker 18: But you're gonna if Arizona just lives in the paint 1122 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:33,600 Speaker 18: tomorrow night, it'll be the end of the season for Purdue. 1123 00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:36,959 Speaker 18: And look, by the way you look at an Arizona roster, 1124 00:58:38,360 --> 00:58:42,080 Speaker 18: McDonald's all American, McDonald's all American, McDonald's all American. 1125 00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:43,240 Speaker 14: They are not fullyed of talent. 1126 00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:46,320 Speaker 18: Uh Sodue's going to have to find a way to 1127 00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:49,240 Speaker 18: again try to try to find some deficiencies in that 1128 00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:51,720 Speaker 18: Arizona offense. Hopefully it's the fact that they're not a 1129 00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:54,040 Speaker 18: good three point shooting team, at least percentage wise, and 1130 00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:56,960 Speaker 18: maybe Purdue can make a few threes. They only made 1131 00:58:57,040 --> 00:58:59,880 Speaker 18: four threes last night. Think about that, you win the lead, 1132 00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:02,600 Speaker 18: pardon of me, a Sweet sixteen game and you only 1133 00:59:02,640 --> 00:59:05,840 Speaker 18: make four or threes often the same guy and produced 1134 00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:07,440 Speaker 18: one of the best three point shooting teams in the country. 1135 00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:10,120 Speaker 18: So hopefully flu has some makes coming their way tomorrow night, 1136 00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:13,160 Speaker 18: and hopefully, fingers crossed, Arizona might not find their way 1137 00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:14,800 Speaker 18: into three point shooting efficiency. 1138 00:59:15,320 --> 00:59:17,200 Speaker 5: Is it possible in twenty twenty six? 1139 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:19,600 Speaker 10: Rob Blackman, my guest the voice of the boiler Makers 1140 00:59:19,680 --> 00:59:24,880 Speaker 10: for Purdue Radio the Purdue Radio Network. Is it possible, Rob? 1141 00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:28,600 Speaker 10: For a freshman in twenty twenty six? In an era 1142 00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:32,720 Speaker 10: where guys are playing thirty games and they've played two 1143 00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:36,520 Speaker 10: hundred AAU tournaments and championships and camps at all of that, 1144 00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:39,000 Speaker 10: is it possible for freshmen at this point in the 1145 00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:40,880 Speaker 10: year to get rattled by the stage? 1146 00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:47,160 Speaker 18: Well, considering all the freshmen on Arizona's roster that play 1147 00:59:47,240 --> 00:59:50,280 Speaker 18: major minutes, I sure hope so fair. 1148 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:55,480 Speaker 14: But man, there, gosh, darn there's well. 1149 00:59:56,360 --> 00:59:58,240 Speaker 18: I suppose I want to say yes, But then I 1150 00:59:58,360 --> 01:00:00,960 Speaker 18: watched Darius Acuff last night. He was really the only 1151 01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:03,200 Speaker 18: good player Arkansas put on the floor last night, and 1152 01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:03,960 Speaker 18: he was a freshman. 1153 01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:04,920 Speaker 14: He made it look easy. 1154 01:00:05,120 --> 01:00:07,160 Speaker 18: So I suppose it has more to do with the 1155 01:00:07,240 --> 01:00:10,120 Speaker 18: actual player himself and than just the fact that they're 1156 01:00:10,120 --> 01:00:13,840 Speaker 18: a freshman. But Dad gone that Braydon Burry's the freshman 1157 01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:18,439 Speaker 18: for Arizona. Man, and see he is spectacular and he's 1158 01:00:18,480 --> 01:00:20,960 Speaker 18: only missed.

That you're 1295 01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:47,560 Speaker 10: gonna need him to jump in there and give you 1296 01:07:47,720 --> 01:07:51,800 Speaker 10: that because you've got to spell some minutes one would 1297 01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:55,320 Speaker 10: assume From kluff And, kaufman W rehn and in clogging 1298 01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:59,720 Speaker 10: that paint and sealing that. Off and so you want 1299 01:07:59,800 --> 01:08:02,440 Speaker 10: those you Want, jacobson for, example to be able to 1300 01:08:02,600 --> 01:08:04,960 Speaker 10: so that they don't get in foul trouble and end 1301 01:08:05,080 --> 01:08:07,480 Speaker 10: up out of the game late because they're going to 1302 01:08:07,560 --> 01:08:10,960 Speaker 10: have to try to close off that area as, well 1303 01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:13,960 Speaker 10: Where arizona wants to be able to get the basketball 1304 01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:18,880 Speaker 10: where they're most. Effective and then the perimeter Defensive purdue 1305 01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:23,920 Speaker 10: has been at times so vulnerable. 1306 01:08:25,080 --> 01:08:27,840 Speaker 5: And Yet arizona has a guy that could take advantage of. 1307 01:08:27,880 --> 01:08:31,360 Speaker 11: That it'll be interesting to see the matchup Of crevas 1308 01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:35,360 Speaker 11: the center For arizona and whether two, yeah whether they 1309 01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:37,400 Speaker 11: put him On trey Coffmre, in or if they put 1310 01:08:37,479 --> 01:08:40,960 Speaker 11: him On Oscar fluff just because of his ability to alter. 1311 01:08:41,120 --> 01:08:45,800 Speaker 11: Shots he's got nine blocks in three games during the 1312 01:08:45,840 --> 01:08:48,519 Speaker 11: tournament so. Far he had a double double in their 1313 01:08:48,560 --> 01:08:50,800 Speaker 11: second round match up Against you. 1314 01:08:50,920 --> 01:08:52,519 Speaker 5: Intentionally say tournament that way. 1315 01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:54,400 Speaker 11: Tournament, YEAH i think at. 1316 01:08:54,360 --> 01:08:57,240 Speaker 10: This point you're intentionally doing the THE i went To 1317 01:08:57,320 --> 01:08:58,599 Speaker 10: syracuse broadcast school. 1318 01:08:58,920 --> 01:09:00,960 Speaker 5: Pronunciation, no, okay. 1319 01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:05,280 Speaker 11: No but who he matches up WITH i think is 1320 01:09:05,320 --> 01:09:08,479 Speaker 11: going to be the real detrimining factor in how the 1321 01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:10,840 Speaker 11: game could play, out BECAUSE i think if you if 1322 01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:12,680 Speaker 11: they Put crevass on tray Cooff, marien it will be 1323 01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:15,160 Speaker 11: some issues For arizona because he's not very mobile when 1324 01:09:15,160 --> 01:09:17,920 Speaker 11: you get him outside the lane or outside the painting 1325 01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:19,680 Speaker 11: away from the. Basket so if you get him in 1326 01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:22,479 Speaker 11: those dribble handoffs with those high picking rolls and you 1327 01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:25,000 Speaker 11: kind of exploit, it Then Braden smith can get up 1328 01:09:25,040 --> 01:09:28,360 Speaker 11: an underground like you did With Adan Marra. Michigan it'll 1329 01:09:28,400 --> 01:09:30,800 Speaker 11: be fascinating to watch when we come. 1330 01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:33,559 Speaker 10: BACK a little recap Of eddie's big day, yesterday which 1331 01:09:33,760 --> 01:09:35,840 Speaker 10: somehow involved taking the day off but not going to a, 1332 01:09:35,960 --> 01:09:38,360 Speaker 10: game which is kind of. Impressive BUT i thought he 1333 01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:40,000 Speaker 10: was going to the game but apparently. NOT i don't 1334 01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:41,680 Speaker 10: know if his day off would have been cleared if 1335 01:09:41,680 --> 01:09:42,519 Speaker 10: we knew the deed na have. 1336 01:09:42,560 --> 01:09:43,880 Speaker 5: Tickets but that's, Okay and. 1337 01:09:45,520 --> 01:09:49,720 Speaker 10: He's back the walking sound, bite the guy who they 1338 01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:53,759 Speaker 10: make t shirts when he says, something and yet it pays. 1339 01:09:53,840 --> 01:09:57,840 Speaker 10: Off he's at it again and everybody's talking about what he, 1340 01:09:57,920 --> 01:10:02,400 Speaker 10: said and we'll let you hear it.

Tournament haven't talked much about the 1343 01:10:08,439 --> 01:10:12,439 Speaker 10: rest of the. Games last, night, Obviously arizona we got into. 1344 01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:18,920 Speaker 10: THAT i Thought illinois was, outstanding AND i really did 1345 01:10:19,080 --> 01:10:21,840 Speaker 10: believe That houston was just kind of laying in the, 1346 01:10:21,880 --> 01:10:24,280 Speaker 10: weeds And i'm, like, man the way they defend and 1347 01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:27,680 Speaker 10: the way they can score the ball from the. Outside 1348 01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:30,160 Speaker 10: now they do go through scoring, loles and that's been 1349 01:10:30,200 --> 01:10:33,439 Speaker 10: something that Hurt houston in the past and that came 1350 01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:34,240 Speaker 10: to bite them last. 1351 01:10:34,320 --> 01:10:34,680 Speaker 5: Night But. 1352 01:10:34,840 --> 01:10:39,640 Speaker 10: Illinois, Man illinois's ability to have the marksmen on the 1353 01:10:39,760 --> 01:10:44,280 Speaker 10: floor and to move the ball around with anybody that can, 1354 01:10:44,360 --> 01:10:48,400 Speaker 10: hit they can. Score And illinois's offense reminds me a 1355 01:10:48,520 --> 01:10:52,000 Speaker 10: little bit of like The pacers in The garden last 1356 01:10:52,080 --> 01:10:54,240 Speaker 10: year When Nie smith got, hot and it's just like 1357 01:10:54,360 --> 01:10:57,800 Speaker 10: you never know where it's coming. From and three point 1358 01:10:57,920 --> 01:11:01,280 Speaker 10: nine point twelve point lead To Holy, cow and once 1359 01:11:01,320 --> 01:11:03,160 Speaker 10: they got a double digit lead On, Houston you're, like 1360 01:11:03,200 --> 01:11:06,080 Speaker 10: this is over Because, houston you, know being up on 1361 01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:08,960 Speaker 10: That houston, team being up, seven it's Like Tony Bennet's 1362 01:11:09,000 --> 01:11:10,960 Speaker 10: virginia teams back in the. Day a seven point leads 1363 01:11:10,960 --> 01:11:11,599 Speaker 10: a fifteen point. 1364 01:11:11,680 --> 01:11:14,000 Speaker 11: LEAD i thought one of the more eye opening things 1365 01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:16,080 Speaker 11: during that game last, Night jay is we talked About 1366 01:11:16,240 --> 01:11:20,400 Speaker 11: illinois and their, offense and we're wondering going into the 1367 01:11:20,479 --> 01:11:23,040 Speaker 11: tournament will they be able to figure it out? Defensively 1368 01:11:24,040 --> 01:11:26,639 Speaker 11: and the size that they have is not talked about. 1369 01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:29,360 Speaker 11: Enough they've got a lot of length they, do and 1370 01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:32,720 Speaker 11: they can disrupt you correct defensively and they're just figured it. 1371 01:11:32,800 --> 01:11:35,439 Speaker 10: Out illinois also just feels, like AND i know this 1372 01:11:35,600 --> 01:11:37,400 Speaker 10: isn't the, case but it feels like every player on 1373 01:11:37,479 --> 01:11:39,720 Speaker 10: that floor is like twenty five years. Old they just 1374 01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:42,360 Speaker 10: are very mature and poised in the way that they. 1375 01:11:42,439 --> 01:11:49,240 Speaker 10: OPERATE i think they were. Impressive, Now, iowa. HUH i 1376 01:11:49,320 --> 01:11:52,400 Speaker 10: don't know what to make Of nebraska only having four 1377 01:11:52,439 --> 01:11:54,200 Speaker 10: players on the floor on one of those, plays And 1378 01:11:54,280 --> 01:11:57,960 Speaker 10: Fred hoiberg sounded very confused and even trying to explain. 1379 01:11:58,040 --> 01:11:59,760 Speaker 14: It but. 1380 01:12:01,360 --> 01:12:03,559 Speaker 10: The Way iowa AND i know this is a team 1381 01:12:03,680 --> 01:12:06,760 Speaker 10: that had lost like seven of nine going into the, Tournament. 1382 01:12:08,320 --> 01:12:15,000 Speaker 5: But if you look at the career resume Of ben, 1383 01:12:15,080 --> 01:12:19,840 Speaker 5: McCollum and he was a guy THAT i had. 1384 01:12:19,960 --> 01:12:22,760 Speaker 10: MENTIONED i, know he might have been the first guy 1385 01:12:22,840 --> 01:12:26,800 Speaker 10: THAT i mentioned For, indiana AND i realized that he's 1386 01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:29,719 Speaker 10: An iowa city, guy and it probably was a faya 1387 01:12:29,760 --> 01:12:33,639 Speaker 10: complete that he was going To iowa. Regardless And i'm 1388 01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:36,080 Speaker 10: not saying That indiana made a bad, higher But ben 1389 01:12:36,160 --> 01:12:38,320 Speaker 10: McCollum i look at AND i think it's interesting With 1390 01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:44,760 Speaker 10: Scott dolson that the accomplishments in the feats Of Kurt 1391 01:12:44,840 --> 01:12:49,600 Speaker 10: signetti ben McCollum is very. Similar eighty one percent of 1392 01:12:49,680 --> 01:12:53,080 Speaker 10: his wins all, told multiple national championships at a lower. 1393 01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:55,800 Speaker 10: Level AND i thought it was interesting after the game 1394 01:12:55,840 --> 01:12:58,200 Speaker 10: When Charles barkley was, saying, look basketball even more than, 1395 01:12:58,240 --> 01:13:01,320 Speaker 10: football it automatically. Trains it's because you have fewer players 1396 01:13:01,439 --> 01:13:04,599 Speaker 10: and there are fewer ways and more to win. Games 1397 01:13:04,680 --> 01:13:06,360 Speaker 10: it just comes down to the fundamentals of. It And 1398 01:13:06,479 --> 01:13:10,240 Speaker 10: barkley was, saying and for that, reason if you are 1399 01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:13,920 Speaker 10: a if you're winning at The division two, level you're 1400 01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:16,080 Speaker 10: probably gonna win A DIVISION ie level because it's just 1401 01:13:16,400 --> 01:13:18,360 Speaker 10: and he's done a very similar thing to what we 1402 01:13:18,479 --> 01:13:22,040 Speaker 10: saw From Kurt signetti At indiana football, wise he's like 1403 01:13:22,520 --> 01:13:26,000 Speaker 10: Basketball's Kurt signetti without the sound bites and those sorts of, 1404 01:13:26,080 --> 01:13:28,920 Speaker 10: things but the confidence of it and bringing guys over 1405 01:13:29,000 --> 01:13:32,960 Speaker 10: that kind of know his system and then having his, 1406 01:13:33,040 --> 01:13:34,680 Speaker 10: system and maybe it took this long for them to 1407 01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:37,240 Speaker 10: just kind of figure everything, out but the adjustments. Made 1408 01:13:37,680 --> 01:13:42,120 Speaker 10: he played a faster pace than he did At, drake 1409 01:13:42,360 --> 01:13:44,280 Speaker 10: but then At drake he slowed things. Down and now you, 1410 01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:46,040 Speaker 10: know it's a lot of it's based on the personnel 1411 01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:50,479 Speaker 10: that he, has But iowa just looks so well, coached and. 1412 01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:51,160 Speaker 5: Then you look at his. 1413 01:13:51,280 --> 01:13:54,799 Speaker 10: Resume he's won eighty one percent of his. Games, clearly 1414 01:13:54,880 --> 01:13:58,800 Speaker 10: this guy has an understanding of the game. Itself Kurt 1415 01:13:58,840 --> 01:14:03,040 Speaker 10: signetti when he arrived In bloomington brought with them players FROM. 1416 01:14:03,120 --> 01:14:07,360 Speaker 10: Jmu I've i've talked about how IMPORTANT i thought that 1417 01:14:07,760 --> 01:14:10,640 Speaker 10: was because you're bringing you, know eighteen guys with you 1418 01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:12,800 Speaker 10: that can then say to your locker room like, no, no, No, 1419 01:14:13,680 --> 01:14:15,640 Speaker 10: lizzen just follow the. 1420 01:14:15,720 --> 01:14:17,880 Speaker 5: Blueprint here ride the.

Us so 1885 01:35:24,120 --> 01:35:26,439 Speaker 10: let's just work on some. Things get them short, up 1886 01:35:26,560 --> 01:35:32,560 Speaker 10: and notably their defense and their perimeter. Defense AND i 1887 01:35:32,680 --> 01:35:38,439 Speaker 10: think the you have to look at the veteran play 1888 01:35:38,600 --> 01:35:44,599 Speaker 10: Of purdue and tribute and it tributes the wrong word 1889 01:35:44,760 --> 01:35:53,600 Speaker 10: and pin it on that veteran leadership and maturity to 1890 01:35:54,040 --> 01:35:56,920 Speaker 10: bounce back from that and, say you know, what one 1891 01:35:57,040 --> 01:36:00,680 Speaker 10: goal got away from. Us one goal away from. Us 1892 01:36:00,760 --> 01:36:05,080 Speaker 10: but now let's use The Big Ten tournament to not 1893 01:36:05,360 --> 01:36:07,439 Speaker 10: go out and say we're going to win The big ten, 1894 01:36:07,520 --> 01:36:11,200 Speaker 10: tournament but use The Big Ten tournament to, simply let's 1895 01:36:11,360 --> 01:36:15,599 Speaker 10: now see what sort of seed line we can play 1896 01:36:15,640 --> 01:36:21,320 Speaker 10: ourselves back into and that, goal then reassessing that goal 1897 01:36:23,560 --> 01:36:26,200 Speaker 10: allows you to you win The Big Ten tournament and then, 1898 01:36:26,560 --> 01:36:30,560 Speaker 10: boom now you're a two seed and that momentum is 1899 01:36:30,640 --> 01:36:32,840 Speaker 10: now carrying. You and the way they're playing and their 1900 01:36:32,920 --> 01:36:37,120 Speaker 10: defensive in particular their perimeter defensive pressure has picked up 1901 01:36:37,160 --> 01:36:40,960 Speaker 10: to the point where it's put them in this.

Different and there is no question that 2070 01:45:45,800 --> 01:45:47,560 Speaker 20: you have to have the resources to be able to 2071 01:45:47,600 --> 01:45:49,920 Speaker 20: compete at the highest. Level BUT i think when you 2072 01:45:50,120 --> 01:45:55,879 Speaker 20: really peel back the layers of successful teams in college, basketball, 2073 01:45:55,960 --> 01:45:59,600 Speaker 20: yes but in sport in, general you have to have 2074 01:45:59,760 --> 01:46:03,400 Speaker 20: a group that is, connected that knows who they, are 2075 01:46:03,720 --> 01:46:07,360 Speaker 20: and that are moving in the same. Direction so everything 2076 01:46:07,439 --> 01:46:09,760 Speaker 20: that we do will be geared towards, that and we're 2077 01:46:09,800 --> 01:46:11,840 Speaker 20: going to bust our butts and make sure that that's really. 2078 01:46:11,920 --> 01:46:14,680 Speaker 10: Clear i've always wondered, this And i've asked a lot 2079 01:46:14,760 --> 01:46:18,439 Speaker 10: of coaches this. Question, okay when you are a player 2080 01:46:18,520 --> 01:46:20,719 Speaker 10: and you WERE i, mean the thing about your group 2081 01:46:20,800 --> 01:46:23,920 Speaker 10: and you know this between you and you Know Shelvin 2082 01:46:24,000 --> 01:46:27,280 Speaker 10: mack And Matt howard and you Know gordon. Everybody the 2083 01:46:27,400 --> 01:46:31,479 Speaker 10: thing that made you GUYS i thought so unique was 2084 01:46:31,560 --> 01:46:34,160 Speaker 10: you always anticipated where the ball was going to. 2085 01:46:34,200 --> 01:46:35,519 Speaker 5: Be you were always a step. 2086 01:46:35,600 --> 01:46:38,120 Speaker 10: AHEAD a lot of that maybe Is Brad stevens and 2087 01:46:38,200 --> 01:46:40,280 Speaker 10: a lot of that was the chemistry amongst you. Guys 2088 01:46:40,400 --> 01:46:44,360 Speaker 10: but basketball was very, instinctive seemingly to you as a. 2089 01:46:44,400 --> 01:46:49,000 Speaker 10: Player is it then difficult from a coaching standpoint because 2090 01:46:49,040 --> 01:46:52,840 Speaker 10: of the fact that you automatically assume that players have 2091 01:46:53,000 --> 01:46:56,280 Speaker 10: the same instinct that you, Did and yet that's a 2092 01:46:56,400 --> 01:46:59,640 Speaker 10: hard thing to teach if a guy doesn't have. 2093 01:46:59,800 --> 01:47:03,800 Speaker 5: It is that a challenge in? Coaching it can be a. 2094 01:47:03,920 --> 01:47:07,200 Speaker 20: CHALLENGE i think one thing is to not make, assumptions 2095 01:47:07,800 --> 01:47:09,880 Speaker 20: AND i think you, know in addition to, that really 2096 01:47:09,960 --> 01:47:12,280 Speaker 20: get to know your. Guys and one thing that intrigues 2097 01:47:12,320 --> 01:47:14,519 Speaker 20: me about coaching in college is that we get the 2098 01:47:14,560 --> 01:47:18,120 Speaker 20: opportunity to recruit guys and recruit guys that fit who 2099 01:47:18,200 --> 01:47:19,479 Speaker 20: we want to be and how we want to play 2100 01:47:20,360 --> 01:47:22,760 Speaker 20: those teams that we played. On that coaching staff is 2101 01:47:22,760 --> 01:47:25,280 Speaker 20: such a great job of being clear about identifying that 2102 01:47:25,920 --> 01:47:28,759 Speaker 20: that those things were in. Lockstep, now it takes, training 2103 01:47:29,080 --> 01:47:33,080 Speaker 20: it takes, work it takes, practice it takes, Preparation it 2104 01:47:33,160 --> 01:47:33,760 Speaker 20: takes all. 2105 01:47:33,760 --> 01:47:35,960 Speaker 12: Those things for that to be able to mold. 2106 01:47:36,040 --> 01:47:38,800 Speaker 20: Together but you have to start at that, point and 2107 01:47:38,880 --> 01:47:41,280 Speaker 20: then we have to teach our guys what that looks 2108 01:47:41,320 --> 01:47:42,880 Speaker 20: like to be on the same. Page we got to 2109 01:47:42,920 --> 01:47:44,760 Speaker 20: be very clear about that and what that looks, like 2110 01:47:45,240 --> 01:47:46,200 Speaker 20: and we have to just train that. 2111 01:47:46,200 --> 01:47:46,599 Speaker 12: At a high. 2112 01:47:46,680 --> 01:47:49,559 Speaker 10: Level coaching in high, school coaching in THE G, league 2113 01:47:49,600 --> 01:47:52,960 Speaker 10: coaching in, college coaching at THE.
