1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,240
Speaker 1: Well, good morning everyone, and I'll come into what do

2
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:06,120
Speaker 1: they say, in like a lion out like a lamb

3
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,600
Speaker 1: the month of March. Good morning, James Boyd, Good morning,

4
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 1: Kevin Bowen, Good morning, Mark Dyketon. I don't know about you, guys.

5
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:15,960
Speaker 1: I'm watching the weather last night after the Indiana game

6
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: and it looks like might be a dusting of snow

7
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:20,320
Speaker 1: up by where I live. Wake up this morning there's

8
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: like three inches of snow on the ground all of

9
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,439
Speaker 1: a sudden, like, oh, this is gonna be a fun

10
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,279
Speaker 1: commute to work this morning, but we all got here

11
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 1: in time. Good morning, guys, how you doing. Kevin Bowen?

12
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:33,560
Speaker 1: Did you know what was gonna snow this much? W

13
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,520
Speaker 1: T F right?

14
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,919
Speaker 2: Those are my thoughts at seven oh one in the morning. Mark,

15
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,839
Speaker 2: am I allowed to acronymic or no? I don't know

16
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 2: if I am or not, So let's just move on. Yeah,

17
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 2: sectional week snow right? Isn't that the old tradition here

18
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 2: in the unbelievable? I will say, I think it's a

19
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 2: not to get to meteorology on here, but I did

20
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 2: think it was a light snow in terms of a

21
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 2: shovel and scrape and get through the commute, so a

22
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 2: few minutes extra for me, It was more just jarring.

23
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 2: And I do think keep an eye on delays.

24
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 3: Mark.

25
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 2: I don't know about you guys out there, but the

26
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 2: delayser a starting to pour in, and I think like

27
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 2: people are waking up to it and almost like, oh wow,

28
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 2: we might need to go there. So you know, we've

29
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 2: got the TV on in here. You can see some

30
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 2: delays starting to trickle out, even though the snow is

31
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 2: starting to exit the area.

32
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, the snow is getting out of here, and we

33
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: will keep a monitor on it for you this morning.

34
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 1: But I already my kids have been told don't show

35
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: up until ten thirty this morning. So keep an eye

36
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: on your whatever the alert system is, your text, your phone, whatever,

37
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: keep an eye on that. In the meantime, you talked

38
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 1: about sectional snow. How about girls state high school basketball

39
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: over the weekend, James Boyd, I saw you were all

40
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: over that.

41
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, first time I did all four games for any

42
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 4: state finals. I figured I was gonna be downtown anyway

43
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 4: because of the combine, So got up, made it to

44
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 4: the first two and then spent the hours in between

45
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 4: working on some stuff for the NFL that we'll get

46
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 4: into here on the show for sure, and then went

47
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 4: back for the nightcap and shout out to center Grove.

48
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 4: They got it done. Undefeated season twenty nine to zero.

49
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 4: And I believe her name is Grayson Gilliard, the senior

50
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:11,639
Speaker 4: going to Davidson. She came up big time in the

51
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 4: second half.

52
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: I was all excited for a basketball triple header yesterday.

53
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,800
Speaker 1: Did not have a good time, did not have a

54
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: good time in the Purdue game, did not enjoy the

55
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: Indiana game, and I didn't truly enjoy the Pacers game.

56
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 4: We're talking about snow Perdue went ice cold, looked a

57
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,399
Speaker 4: little snowy there when it came to the three point

58
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 4: line in the second half, and just a gut punch

59
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,679
Speaker 4: loss for them against an Ohio State team that has

60
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 4: some very faint NCAA tournament hopes.

61
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,520
Speaker 1: I have a question for you guys, though, when do

62
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 1: we get to the point we're going, oh Man, Purdue

63
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 1: just played a team that was red hot from three

64
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,799
Speaker 1: point range and start saying, why does every team shoot

65
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 1: well from three point range? Against Purdue?

66
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 2: Yeah? I think we had this discussion a little bit

67
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 2: after the Michigan State game. Yeah, on Friday, James, you

68
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 2: know defensively, it is an issue, and you're going to

69
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 2: string together any sort of really outside around one in

70
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 2: the tournament. I don't think they're built defensively to you know,

71
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 2: get on a run, even winning ugly, winning different ways.

72
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 2: We know offensively they're very, very gifted. But you know

73
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,359
Speaker 2: that's gonna be a huge question now as we enter

74
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 2: the month of March. Although Jeff, you said you weren't

75
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 2: happy with any of the three results, I think some

76
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 2: Pacers fans would beg to differ on the final result

77
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 2: of the night there.

78
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 1: Well, again, it's hard for me. I get it, I

79
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 1: understand it. I'm not.

80
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 2: Want to see losses so far, six games post All

81
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 2: Star Break, six losses.

82
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: I'm not angry about that necessarily, but I'm not having

83
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: a good time either.

84
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 4: James, it's been rough. It's been rough. But at the

85
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 4: same time, yeah, you gotta think big picture, Jeff Wusa.

86
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: I am, but doesn't mean I'm having fun. It's like

87
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: eating your vegetables when you're a kid.

88
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, honestly, you probably have the same mindset as those

89
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 4: in the franchise. I mean trying to tell Rick Carlisle

90
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 4: that man or not tell him. He understands the big picture.

91
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 4: But this is a guy who's probably a Hall of

92
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 4: Fame coach, just reached the thousand wins this season, but

93
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 4: would obviously like to be in a different situation when

94
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 4: it comes to their overall outcome. But hey, at the

95
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 4: same time, I'm just looking at those ping pong balls

96
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 4: and you're hoping that you give yourself the best chance

97
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 4: at this point to land a top four pick.

98
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:24,359
Speaker 5: How do we.

99
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 1: Evaluate Jeris Walker Because he's been playing pretty well, but

100
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: he's also been playing against This is a weird stretch too,

101
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: where the Pacers are playing a bunch of teams that

102
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: are also not trying their best to win, or they

103
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: have a bunch of players that are really good that

104
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: have been injured.

105
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 4: That is a good question. I mean, it's hard to

106
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 4: evaluate him because I'm always staying about roles, you all,

107
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 4: and like, what role do you fit when it comes

108
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 4: to your normal lineup? And they have been so far

109
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 4: from normal all year.

110
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 2: I'm nice Walker to do things they would never see exactly.

111
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 4: So I'm like, I do like that he's getting my

112
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 4: experience get to play a ton that is good. But again,

113
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 4: I worry, you not worry, but I think about the

114
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 4: marriage of okay, when Tyreeze comes back, when you got

115
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 4: zoobots in there, when you look more whole, so we'll see.

116
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm just looking. I took a picture of this

117
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: last night because I wanted to make sure I got

118
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: it correct at the end of the game as the

119
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 1: game was getting away from them and obviously they weren't

120
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,600
Speaker 1: going to win. The five on the floor where Jay Huff,

121
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 1: Cam Jones, Micah Potter, Kobe Brown, and uh Taylor Peter.

122
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 1: That's what That's what the Pacers are rolling with pretty

123
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: much the rest of the season, right.

124
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,120
Speaker 2: You know, Speaking of sectional snow traditions, I think the

125
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 2: other tradition we're now used to in Bloomington is Zach

126
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,719
Speaker 2: Osterman and Jeff rab John's dusting off the article of

127
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 2: will Indiana accept an n bid? Yeah, that seems to

128
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 2: be kind of an annual article in the month of

129
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 2: March here, not where you're at destination wise, or where

130
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 2: you're projected into the tournament. It's more of the sky

131
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 2: dolson have a public statement or not on the n IT,

132
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 2: and I think that it was one step closer to

133
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 2: that article being posted, I believe, jeffrab John said on

134
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 2: peaks dot Com they would not accept it in it

135
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 2: did for what it's worth there, but that's a routy

136
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 2: where we're aut in Bloomington with a fourth straight loss,

137
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 2: three blowouts, and you can make the argument the one

138
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 2: blowout was the worst one, the Northwestern one of these four.

139
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 2: So yeah, great opportunity for them yesterday. And I really

140
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 2: thought Michigan State controlled the game from start to finish.

141
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 2: I never seriously, seriously threatened. I thought no.

142
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 4: At times it felt like Lamar Wilkerson was just out

143
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 4: there by himself.

144
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, there were times where there were moments for Tucker Derees,

145
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: but outside of those two guys, I don't know what's

146
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: going on. I thought it was forty minutes. I thought

147
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 1: it was a terrific column by Greg this morning too,

148
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: where he was just talking about haven't we seen this

149
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: at Indiana basketball at this time of year? Over and

150
00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 1: over and over and over, new coach, new players, same result.

151
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,159
Speaker 1: Looking at true could be looking at it and I

152
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 1: again having to make decisions on whether to go to

153
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:04,159
Speaker 1: the NIT or not.

154
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 4: They were a different team when Nick Dorton was making shots,

155
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 4: and it just hadn't happened as of late. But I

156
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 4: also do want to mention real quick here in our

157
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 4: opening segment the Colts Daniel Jones transition tag get some

191
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,320
Speaker 2: I was surprised, James, how many people Friday, particularly from

192
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,559
Speaker 2: the Chicago media sector, was like doing double takes, And

193
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 2: then I forgot I was wearing it. So then I

194
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 2: was kind of walking around the combine early day and

195
00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 2: people are kind of looking at me. I'm like, gosh,

196
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 2: I feel like I just got my hair transplant again.

197
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 2: People are kind of looking at me crooked.

198
00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:58,320
Speaker 1: Can you hear me now?

199
00:08:58,480 --> 00:08:58,640

00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 1: we will talk about local guys. We talk about guys

219
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 1: that maybe interested you men as you look for potential cults, fits,

220
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 1: all those kinds of things. And we'll take some of

221
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,800

222
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 1: Mark's got his microphone going. We are ready to go.

223
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 2: I go thround the morn and just the morning commute,

224
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 2: because I feel like it's gonna surprise some people. Mark,

225
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 2: what was it like for you coming in on the

226
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 2: West side this morning early?

227
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 6: I thought it was a bit of a heavier snow

228
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 6: in our area. Definitely coming down pretty good. Roads were

229
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 6: not great. I got a little bit better. He's got

230
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 6: close to the city, but probably added about ten to

231
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 6: fifteen minutes to my commute. So you normally a half

232
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,079
Speaker 6: hours forty forty five minutes so, and there's plenty of

233
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 6: cars on the side of the road, so be careful

234
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 6: out there.

235
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 2: Yet not as much for me coming down Meridian. But

236
00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 2: at the same time, I'm fully seeing the news and

237
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 2: I'm seeing Matt Bear's updates. It looks like it's icy

238
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 2: around town and you're starting to see DeLay's glower, so

239
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 2: just keep an eye out for that. Because when I

240
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,079
Speaker 2: opened up the windows this morning, I was.

241
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 1: Like, what, Yeah, I think we all were. The dog

242
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: even was like double taking me, Like really, you want

243
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 1: me to go out in this? What's going on it?

244
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 1: Mind's about a twenty five to thirty minute commute every morning.

245
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: Today it was about forty five minutes, fifty minutes just

246
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: go slower and you'll be okay, not too slow, but slower. James.

247
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: You don't live too far away, how about you.

248
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,079
Speaker 4: It's the same whether it's rains leader snow. Just got

249
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 4: to get up and maybe do a little bit more

250
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 4: on work on the car.

251
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,959
Speaker 2: But we made it seventy degrees on Friday.

252
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, go go to rain all weekend too, all

253
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 1: the Midwest, baby, Yeah, gotta let them awest. So it goes.

254
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 1: That's how it goes. Maybe the rain will make all

255
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: of our grass screen over next week because it's looking

256
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: pretty brown, as it always is this time of year.

257
00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 1: So we'll see how it all weeks works out for you.

258
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 1: But keep an eye on that. We'll keep you up

259
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 1: to date on anything that you might need to know

260
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,839
Speaker 1: as far as travel times and things of that nature.

261
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 1: Throughout the morning, check your text, check your phone messages.

262
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 1: We've already gotten some from our schools saying there's going

263
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 1: to be a delayed start, so keep that in mind

264
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 1: as well. It's The Fan Morning Show on a Monday,

265
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 1: a snowy Monday, ninety three five one oh seven five

272
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 1: Looking forward to all of that tournament time and we

273
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 1: will of course be out there for a morning show

274
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,439
Speaker 1: during the Horizon Tournament next week. More on that as

275
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 1: we get closer and closer, but let's start in the NBA.

276
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 1: The Indiana Pacers last night at home lose to the

277
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 1: Memphis Grizzlies won twenty five to one zero six. Taylor

278
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 1: Hendricks led the Grizzlies with nineteen points, Jeriswalker at twenty

279
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,599
Speaker 1: one points on eighty percent shooting, Micah Potter had eighteen.

280
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 1: The Pacers James Started, Cam Jones, Ben Shephard, Jerre Swalker,

281
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:28,679
Speaker 1: Ob Toppin and Jay Huff.

282
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,959
Speaker 4: Yeah, that will not be their sorry lineup next year,

283
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 4: which is what they're playing and perhaps losing for at

284
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 4: this point. But shads. Quinn Jackson over the weekend got

285
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,439
Speaker 4: a new contract undrafted I believe, out of Texas A

286
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 4: and M in twenty twenty two and he's earned it.

287
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,199
Speaker 4: Very good player, I think, an NBA caliber player, and

288
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 4: they love him in the locker room.

289
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: Also poor news for one of our favorites. Zach Edy

290
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 1: is going to have to have another ankle surgery. Don't

291
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 1: know if that means he's out for the rest of

292
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 1: the season or not. I see that listed, But it's

293
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 1: tough when the big I start having foot problems.

294
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 9: Man.

295
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 1: I just hope he's okay and we get to see

296
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,559
Speaker 1: Zach Edy thrive at some point in time. I like

297
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 1: that kid.

298
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, persistent ankle issues really since he got into the NBA.

299
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 2: For him, I believe this is his second one. And yeah,

300
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 2: I assume he has done for the season here with

301
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 2: what month and a half? Yeah, month to go here.

302
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 2: So yeah, Pacers now had out West by the way.

303
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 2: So they will start their final Western trip of the

304
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 2: year with the Big Ten Women's Tournament occupying game Bridge

305
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 2: Fieldhouse this week.

306
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: All right, that'll be the Clippers on Wednesday, to get

307
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: things roll in there, all right. College basketball Ohio State

308
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 1: over Purdue eighty two seventy four. John Mobley Junior scored

309
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 1: twenty one points. The Boilers did have a seven point

310
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: lead a couple of times in the first half, but

311
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: once Ohio State took control of that game at home,

312
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 1: they really never really let go of it. They used

313
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: a fourteen to three run to take control in that

314
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,720
Speaker 1: first half. They went up twenty three to nineteen and

315
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: anywhere up by as many as sixteen in the second half.

316
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 1: Or dude, did get it to within six with about

317
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,400
Speaker 1: thirty one seconds to go, but that's as close as

318
00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:59,439
Speaker 1: they ever got. Braydon Smith had twenty, Fletcher Lawyer fifteen,

319
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 1: Tray Kuffman Wren had nineteen. They'll play at Northwestern on Friday.

320
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 1: And again I asked the question, if you're just joining

321
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 1: us now on the snowy wednes or Monday morning, Kevin,

322
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 1: at what point do we say, boy, all these teams

323
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 1: have just gotten red hot against Purdue from from three

324
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 1: point range and they've had bad luck or they're just

325
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:18,560
Speaker 1: not very good at defending the three point shot and

326
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: getting the rotations done on defense.

327
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I believe that Purdue Northwestern game. I think

328
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 2: is Wednesday?

329
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:24,160
Speaker 1: Is it Wednesday?

330
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 2: Not not Friday? Coming up here this week as we're

331
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 2: in the final week of the Big Ten season. Yeah,

332
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 2: I mean defensive issues. I think you know, James, you

333
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 2: and I talked about this a lot Frankly on Friday

334
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 2: Show with the Michigan State game. You know that is

335
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 2: continuing to be the consistent issue for them, and you

336
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 2: know these losses now are creating a more difficult path.

337
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 2: Of course, from a Big Ten tournament standpoint and CA

338
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 2: tournament standpoint, you know, are they going to look more

339
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 2: at the three seed line things like that. You know,

340
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 2: it's Northwestern Wisconsin this week, so it's not gonna be

341
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 2: the most beneficial week to your resume, even if you

342
00:14:56,480 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 2: do win both of those games. So defensively, that's be

343
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 2: the name of the game when that bracket is revealed.

344
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 2: Coming up here in less than two weeks.

345
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: All right, Michigan State beating Indiana seventy seven to sixty

346
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 1: four down at assembly, Jackson Kohler looked like he's NBA

347
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: ready yesterday, James, where did that come from? He had

348
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 1: twenty one points.

349
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, just not the performance you want to

350
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 4: see if you're on the other side of that for

351
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 4: that team. So I think on top of that, Jeff,

352
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 4: when you look at the three point shooting from Kurtang

353
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,920
Speaker 4: six three pointers, six for eight, all eighteen points for

354
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 4: him coming from behind the arc. Talk about three point

355
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 4: line for Purdue. It was a problem for IU as well.

356
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 1: Yeah. Also, Jeremy Fears had twenty one points in this

357
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 1: game for michaganin' day. I saw a very interesting stat

358
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 1: on the TV broadcast last night. If it finishes this way,

359
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 1: he would lead the nation in assists and Braden Smith

360
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: would be second. That'd be the first time the two

361
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: players from the same conference would be one and two

362
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: in assists for a season. I thought that was an

363
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 1: interesting note.

364
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 4: Both very good players, but one team surgeon, one team

365
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 4: reeling a little bit.

366
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, Lamar Wilkerson was the lone bright spot for Indiana.

367
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 1: He had a game high twenty nine to nineteen of

368
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 1: those in the second half. Indiana closes out its home schedule,

369
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 1: that's the one Wednesday against Minnesota. Combine has come and

370
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 1: gone for the most part. How about Omar Cooper Junior

371
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 1: kevin a four four to three forty yard dash. I

372
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: know Twitter was a blaze on that one. I think

373
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 1: it's safe to say he's a really good candidate to

374
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 1: be a mid first round pick at this point in time.

375
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the round one chatter we have with

376
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 2: Dan Brugler last week, and seems to be a guy

377
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,000
Speaker 2: that could be up there. Dylan Thieneman out of Westfield,

378
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 2: shout out to him. He also let it up from

379
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:34,240
Speaker 2: a workout standpoint, D'Angelo Pond's big time on the vertical,

380
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 2: Jeremiah Love, I think to be expected, but still impressive

381
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 2: to see those numbers in the four to three. So yeah,

382
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 2: locally for the guys that worked out, which you know

383
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 2: is few and far between. As the Combine continues to

384
00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 2: evolve a bit here, very strong days from a lot

385
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 2: of them, and again Indiana will have a late pro

386
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:51,600
Speaker 2: day this year. Part of that is to do to

387
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 2: their national title game, so you know, for the guys

388
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,760
Speaker 2: that didn't work out, obviously for Nato Mendoza, some other

389
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 2: guys look for that to happen at their pro day.

390
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 4: Are we allowed to boom on the show?

391
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 1: Sure?

392
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:04,640
Speaker 4: Like they booed Carson Beck when he was out there

393
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 4: for prote Combine Welcome to Indian I was like, man, I.

394
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 6: Thought you would want to cheer him, I mean or

395
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 6: what he did?

396
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 4: I mean, Hoosiers fans, you guys are ruthless. I thought

397
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 4: it was funny. I know people were kind of up

398
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 4: in arms about it, but hey, Carson Beck is doing

399
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 4: well for himself. He'll have an NFL future in some capacity,

400
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:21,640
Speaker 4: and I'm sure he'll be able to take it off.

401
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,600
Speaker 1: It feels like the biggest winner of all from this

402
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 1: combine this past weekend might have been Ty Simpson, another

403
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 1: quarterback that Indiana saw during the playoffs. He may have

404
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 1: worked himself up into a Day one, Day two draft

405
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: pick when people were thinking late round a week couple

406
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 1: of weeks ago.

407
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,560
Speaker 4: Well see, we know that teams can certainly overreach for

408
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,760
Speaker 4: a quarterback, and honestly, it's probably why the Colts are

409
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 4: in their position right now with Anthony Richardson requesting a

410
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 4: trade last week.

411
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,879
Speaker 1: All right, girls high school state champions have been crowned

412
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:51,920
Speaker 1: Center Grove, Belmont Eastern and Borden. Center Grove had to

413
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 1: rally for their win over Norwell. But they believe they

414
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 1: complete a perfect season, did they not?

415
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 4: Yes, twenty nine and zero came back from I believe

416
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 4: eleven points down there in the second half, ties and

417
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 4: IHSA record and yeah, I went to the first couple

418
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 4: of games and sat down, and whoever else sitting next

419
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:09,239
Speaker 4: to us said who are you with? And they told

420
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 4: me the team I'm rolling with you. So we got

421
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 4: a couple dubs in there, shout out to board and

422
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 4: Eastern fans.

423
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,880
Speaker 1: All right. Also in high school sports, Carmel boys team

424
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 1: won their twelfth straight state championship in swimming. It just

425
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 1: seems to be boys and girls Carmel for gun Can.

426
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, they cannot hold a candle to

427
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:29,399
Speaker 4: the girls swim team at Carmel. Come on, boys, catch up.

428
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, they only got twenty eight. They're only twenty eight behind, right,

429
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,680
Speaker 1: let's go. I remember the first year I was here,

430
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:38,120
Speaker 1: it was like twoenty twelve or thirteen, and I saw

431
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 1: that the girls team had won state. But the stat

432
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,679
Speaker 1: that year was if you took their combined times, they

433
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 1: would have finished fifth in the Big ten.

434
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:49,880
Speaker 4: Oh, that's actually crazy. Whoa Yeah, I mean we're talking

435
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 4: about dynasties around here.

436
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: That is certainly one of them. Anyway, That's what's going

437
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:58,120
Speaker 1: on there. Indy car Alex below man, he is good.

438
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:02,080
Speaker 1: He won the Grand Prix of Saint Peter's by twelve seconds,

439
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 1: crediting faster alternate tires at the start, not in the

440
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,360
Speaker 1: middle of the race as most other drivers took off there.

441
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 1: The other thing I'd never seen before. You see, Scott

442
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: Dixon actually lost a wheel after a restart yesterday.

443
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,120
Speaker 4: Racing ah, it's so dangerous, but shout out to Alice.

444
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 4: Polo twelve seconds is an eternity in racing, and he

445
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 4: just makes it look so easy.

446
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,879
Speaker 1: Kevin also in this one, he has won twenty of

447
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: his eighty five starts with Chip Gannaski Racing. I'd say

448
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: that's pretty good. It's crazy.

449
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:33,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I was watching a Polo post race

450
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:37,120
Speaker 2: and it literally gets asked in the press conference, are

451
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 2: you beatable? Let me think about that. The first race

452
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 2: of the year and you're asking the dude if he's beatable.

453
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,080
Speaker 2: I mean, this is Tiger two thousand stuff. It's it's unbelievable,

454
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:46,399
Speaker 2: how to do.

455
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,960
Speaker 4: My god stuff. He's probably look at that reporter and say, hey.

456
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,159
Speaker 2: Relax, he's been and again he's doing it in a

457
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 2: series that I mean certainly has a great parody behind him.

458
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,119
Speaker 2: Like it's always a very you know, much up in

459
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 2: the air. What it's going to look like. There so

460
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 2: busy month of Mark cheer for Indy Carr. Mark Jane's

461
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:03,640
Speaker 2: going to join us in a few all right.

462
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 1: Also, I will tell you that Tyler Reddick has set

463
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 1: NASCAR history winning the first three races of the year

464
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,879
Speaker 1: out of the gate no driver has ever done that before.

465
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan finally finding ownership success after failing miserably with

466
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: the Hornet the Hornets team.

467
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 4: Yes, I believe that if you are a great player

468
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:25,719
Speaker 4: in one sport, you're bound to be a bad owner

469
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:27,919
Speaker 4: in the next sport or the same sport. You got

470
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 4: to switch, switch league, switch teams.

471
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,919
Speaker 1: Hot, you have to do. Indie Ignite had another successful

472
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:37,360
Speaker 1: run on Sunday. They win three sets to one over

473
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 1: the Omaha Supernovas. They are now twelve and two.

474
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 2: Kevin, Yeah, I saw, I think it was before Sunday's match,

475
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 2: but they were three games up on anybody else in

476
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 2: their league, so very impressive.

477
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:46,400
Speaker 7: Yeah.

478
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,400
Speaker 2: I lost the opening set and then three in a row.

479
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 2: So yeah, they continue their great, great season up there

480
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 2: at the Fishers of Ven Center.

481
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 1: Also throwing that Aliah Boston is Unrivals Defensive Player of

482
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 1: the Year, although she willness the last part of the season,

483
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: which ends this week a lower extremity injury. Hopefully that's

484
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 1: not too serious and she's ready to go for the

485
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 1: summer if and when we have WNBA basketball this year.

486
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, but wonder if that takes her out of tmos

487
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,159
Speaker 2: to say, is that next week, James, I believe so.

488
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, so that'd be some World Cup action coming up.

489
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,920
Speaker 1: I hope it's just kind of precautionary kind of thing.

490
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:17,959
Speaker 1: Maybe she's dealing with an ankle or something like that.

491
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,440
Speaker 1: But we'll find out more as the week goes along.

492
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:21,880
Speaker 1: Anything else you guys want to throw.

493
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 2: In, Well, if you're just waking up, the morning commute

494
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 2: is going to look a little different than it has

495
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,679
Speaker 2: for the last few weeks, so delays are starting to

496
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 2: pour in more and more. I think we all had

497
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 2: longer commutes than we thought. I mean, certainly multiple inches

498
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 2: of snow on the ground, and it looks like the

499
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,639
Speaker 2: roadways are pretty slick. So good love for that. Welcome

500
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,680
Speaker 2: to our sectional snow WTF here on this Monday morning.

501
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 1: Later on today eight o'clock, Mark James will stop by

502
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 1: to talk about Saint Petersburg and at nine oh five

503
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,960
Speaker 1: Jake Arthur we'll talk about the Colts, the combine everything

504
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,719
Speaker 1: in between. Phone lines and text lines are open. Two three,

505
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 1: nine ten seventy It's a fan morning show On a

506
00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,159
Speaker 1: Monday ninety three five and one oh seven five.

507
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 8: They seized a fan morning show with KB HB and

508
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,160
Speaker 8: Jeff the Daniel Jones situation.

509
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 10: It's fascinating and tomorrow four o'clock will know. But like,

510
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 10: apparently like they're really considering the transition tag I did

511
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 10: that situation?

512
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: What does that mean? For people who don't know.

513
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,199
Speaker 10: That means that he'll be tendered the average of the

514
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 10: ten highest paid quarterbacks, and the Colts have the ability

515
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 10: to match in terms of an offer sheet. They don't

516
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 10: get any compensation if you transition him, which I would

517
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:30,640
Speaker 10: understand why.

518
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 1: They do that.

519
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 10: You do lose control. I wouldn't be surprised if a

520
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 10: team gave him an offer sheet. I think that'll be

521
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 10: a story that we're going to be watching very closely

522
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,920
Speaker 10: in the next couple of weeks.

523
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:47,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot to look forward to the next couple

524
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: of weeks for the Indianapolis Colts and all the National

525
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,000
Speaker 1: Football League. The combine has come in, gone. The snow

526
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 1: it's come. I don't know if it's gone yet. It's

527
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 1: on the ground. If you're just waking up and rolling

528
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 1: out of the rock this morning, keep in mind that

529
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:04,919
Speaker 1: I went to bed last night thinking there might be

530
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 1: a light dusting where I live, and man, I woke

531
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,639
Speaker 1: up to about three inches of snow and that caused

532
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 1: a slow commute. A lot of schools are on delayed

533
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:17,920
Speaker 1: opening right now. And we'll get to the combine stuff momentarily.

534
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 1: But you were saying from from the west side end

535
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,879
Speaker 1: mark you had a little bit of a slower Just

536
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:25,360
Speaker 1: pay attention commute, right.

537
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, in one of those situations where the snow's falling,

538
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 6: the plows haven't necessarily been on the roads yet really,

539
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 6: so you know, markings on the road a little harder

540
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 6: to find, so be mindful of where you're at in

541
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 6: your lane and all that stuff. But yeah, give yourself

542
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 6: an a little buffer zone. Why can I give you

543
00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 6: some advice on driving, please? This is what my dad

544
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 6: told me. Just don't hit anything that's not moving. That's right.

545
00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:48,240
Speaker 4: So there you go.

546
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 6: Driving over Eagle Creek. I was very mindful of that.

547
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 1: Try not to the moving stuff.

548
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 4: Boy, I'll tell you what I'm back. He had a

549
00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 4: he used to drive a red Toyota Echo, bright red.

550
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 4: My dad parked it in my grandma's backyard. It's paved out,

551
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 4: it's like a parking lot basically, and my aunt backed

552
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 4: dead into his park red Toyota Echo, and he was livid.

553
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 4: He was like, how do you hit something that's not

554
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,359
Speaker 4: moving in his bright red So Mark, make sure you

555
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 4: take that advice from mister Boyd.

556
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 1: True story. I had an aunt many many years ago

557
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,640
Speaker 1: who hit the one car that was in a shopping

558
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,960
Speaker 1: lot parking lot because she didn't want to not be social,

559
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 1: so she wanted to park next to that car and

560
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 1: she hit it.

561
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 4: That's weird.

562
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: That's a truth. You can't make that up. That is

563
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 1: a truth story.

564
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 2: You think I want to disparage Jeff's aunts on this

565
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:41,120
Speaker 2: Monday morning, But I.

566
00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 1: Wonderful that long ago, a wonderful woman. But Combine has

567
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:47,239
Speaker 1: come and gone. For the most part, we saw the

568
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: underwear Olympics, if you want to call him that, all

569
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:54,640
Speaker 1: the press conferences, the interviews, the really convention of coaches,

570
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: general managers, media, former players, analysts, all kinds of things

571
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 1: like that. You guys spent the entire week out there.

572
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 1: I had to cut it short and go do some

573
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,439
Speaker 1: family things at the very end. But all in all,

574
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: James Boyd, what did this Combine mean for the cults

575
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,360
Speaker 1: if anything? In other words, what did we find out

576
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 1: over the last few days.

577
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:14,919
Speaker 4: Well, I would say the big news is that Anthony

578
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,920
Speaker 4: Richardson Senior has requested a trade and the Colts will

579
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 4: work with him and trying to find a trade partner.

580
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,639
Speaker 4: So this is not contentious. This is not something where

581
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 4: they're going to try to hold him hostage. And from

582
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 4: what I understand, there's a lot of mutual respect on

583
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 4: both sides. It's just one of those things where they

584
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:34,239
Speaker 4: think that a best case scenario for both sides at

585
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,480
Speaker 4: this point is to let him move on. I did

586
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 4: get an update on his eye as well from his

587
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 4: camp day put out there to the Colts and gave

588
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,679
Speaker 4: them medical information, saying that when he uses both of

589
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 4: his eyes, he's seeing twenty twenty. And I did get

590
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 4: questions about this. People were like, oh, you see in

591
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,040
Speaker 4: twenty twenty he wears glasses. You can wear glasses and

592
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 4: still have twenty twenty or still need glasses if you

593
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 4: have twenty twenty vision. Just for those who are curious,

594
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,199
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not a doctor, not an optopotrist. That

595
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:03,399
Speaker 4: is a fact. And then on top of that, the

596
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 4: other big news that I would say emerge from the

597
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 4: combine is Daniel Jones and his contract situation and Kevin.

598
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 4: I'm sure you probably some of the reporting from ESPN.

599
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,479
Speaker 4: I was able to confirm a lot of that myself

600
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 4: last night, and I put out an explainer this morning

601
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:25,440
Speaker 4: basically saying why the transition tag different than the franchise

602
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:29,679
Speaker 4: tag now appears to be a possibility for the Colts.

603
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 4: It's a lot going on. And I will say just

604
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 4: for clarity's sake, because I know this. It can get jargony,

605
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:39,160
Speaker 4: it can get confusing. But basically, if you are fan

606
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,360
Speaker 4: of this show, fan of the Colts, whatever, and you're listening,

607
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 4: they can only use one tag on one player each offseason.

608
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,960
Speaker 4: You can't use the franchise tag on one guy, this

609
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 4: transition tag on the other. So for example, if they

610
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,520
Speaker 4: tag Alec Pierce, Daniel Jones is a free agent. If

611
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,879
Speaker 4: they tag Daniel Jones, Alec Pierce is a free agent.

612
00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:59,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I want you to get a little bit

613
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 2: into more of the difference in the transition tag and

614
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,160
Speaker 2: the franchise tag James just a second. But to set

615
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 2: it all up, deadline tomorrow at four o'clock. Yes, to

616
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 2: remind everybody, So four o'clock Tuesday deadline on the tag.

617
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 2: So we will have an answer when we do the

618
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,640
Speaker 2: show Wednesday morning. John did show tomorrow, he will have

619
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:20,880
Speaker 2: an answer on either Jones or Pierce seemingly, and then

620
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:26,679
Speaker 2: free agency officially begins a week from Wednesday. We really

621
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,639
Speaker 2: know freatency begins a week from today. That's when the

622
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:33,479
Speaker 2: legal tampering period we see agreed to terms becomes the

623
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 2: phrase of the year. Right, So that would be Monday,

624
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:39,880
Speaker 2: and that's at noon on Monday, Is that right, James,

625
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 2: I don't think that's the four o'clock. I want to

626
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 2: say that's the noon on Monday. So again, that's a

627
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 2: week from today. So if they just tag one of them,

628
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 2: then that means you will have six days to get

629
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 2: the other ones deal done before again legal tampering begins.

630
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 2: We all know that. Let's say they tag Jones Pierce.

631
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,160
Speaker 2: I'm sure his agent has a healthy understanding after combine

632
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,399
Speaker 2: week of what his market would look like after visiting

633
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 2: some downtown establishments here in Indianapolis. So that's just a

634
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 2: little bit of timeline. Tuesday, four o'clock tag deadline, Monday

635
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,120
Speaker 2: at noon. That's when you know what gets real, James,

636
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:25,639
Speaker 2: explain it. Franchise tag difference, transition tag difference for everybody,

637
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 2: including myself.

638
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 4: All right, let's keep it in English and feel free

639
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 4: to step in and say, hey, doesn't make any sense.

640
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 4: So for the non exclusive franchise tag, which is the

641
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 4: one that most teams use, that is worth forty three

642
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 4: point nine million for quarterbacks in twenty twenty six, the

643
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 4: transition tag is cheaper because unlike with the non excusive

644
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 4: franchise tag that takes the average with the five top

645
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 4: salaries over the last five years at your position, this

646
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:55,080
Speaker 4: position tag takes the last ten over the last I

647
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 4: believe five or ten years at your position. So long

648
00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 4: story short, it's a cheaper option. The transition tag is cheaper. However,

649
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 4: when you put the franchise tag on a player, if

650
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 4: another team comes through and gives an offer sheet and

651
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 4: you want to let that player go on that offer sheet,

652
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 4: you're entitled to get two first round picks as compensation.

653
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 4: So usually teams will put the more exclusive franchise tag

654
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 4: or not exclusives I'm sorry, franchise tag on a player

655
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:22,840
Speaker 4: because Jeff, they know, are you giving up two first

656
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 4: round picks with Daniel Jones. No exactly, So that makes

657
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,640
Speaker 4: it a point. The same with Alec Pierce saying with

658
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 4: Lamar Jackson a few years ago, it just does not happen.

659
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 6: It's very very very rare.

660
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 4: But for the transition tag, Let's say, Jeff, I make

661
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 4: you an offer, another team comes in, makes an offer,

662
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,719
Speaker 4: and you leave. You know what, Hey, I say, I say, well,

663
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 4: you know what, I'll let you go. I don't want

664
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 4: to pay that much. I'm not entitled to any draft compensation.

665
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:49,959
Speaker 4: I don't get any picks.

666
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 11: That is a.

667
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 4: Massive difference between getting two first round picks and getting

668
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 4: nothing for a guy. So in theory, the transition tag

669
00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 4: should make more teams more inclined to want to pursue you.

670
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 4: But from my understanding and the way I view it,

671
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 4: Jeff is the culture basically saying, if we use the

672
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 4: transition tag, if Daniel Jones does not want to sign

673
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:12,000
Speaker 4: a long term deal, and we're afraid that for whatever

674
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,959
Speaker 4: minuscule reason, because I still think it's a small portion

675
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 4: of a chance that he could leave if they don't

676
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 4: tag him, if we want to just be secure, we're

677
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:23,960
Speaker 4: going to put the transition tag on you will match

678
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 4: any offer for you. But the caveat there is that again,

679
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 4: when you put the transition tag on a player, usually

680
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 4: you're open to like seeing what other teams are willing

681
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 4: to offer him, and maybe not match it the Cults

682
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:39,800
Speaker 4: will probably match any offer for him, but they're probably

683
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 4: banking on him having a diminished market because he's coming

684
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:46,120
Speaker 4: off an injury and he's not, i mean collectively, as

685
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 4: you look at his entire resume a great player. So

686
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 4: I know it's a lot of words and a lot

687
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 4: of you know, seconds, But long story short, I think

688
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:57,000
Speaker 4: the culture basically saying we will use the cheaper option

689
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 4: to keep you in a culture uniform most likely match

690
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 4: any offer that teams will want you to throw at you,

691
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 4: and we're not all that confident that other teams will

692
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 4: be willing to pay you or overpay you in any way.

693
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 4: So that to me is why they think they will

694
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 4: be more open to use any But again, the risk

695
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 4: you run of tagging Daniel Jones and ensuring your quarterback

696
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 4: room is solidified is knowing that Alex Pierce then will

697
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 4: hit the open market and he could get and will

698
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 4: get paid.

699
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:25,840
Speaker 1: Yeah.

700
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 2: I think it's interesting because I think Pierce would have

701
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 2: the more competitive market. Jones plays the more important position. Yes,

702
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 2: And I think that's what makes this a little bit difficult.

703
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 4: So I have a question for you all, Jeff Kevin,

704
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:42,040
Speaker 4: what is their backup playing at quarterback. If Daniel Jones

705
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 4: not part of the equation.

706
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 1: I think Robbie makes a good point here. I'll answer

707
00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 1: that with him because I kind of agree with him

708
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: as far as alternatives. I still want Jones back, but

709
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 1: he says, Tag Pierce, let Jones look at the market.

710
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 1: If you can resign him, fine, if not, go after

711
00:31:57,560 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray. I think he's just as good as Jones.

712
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,560
Speaker 4: They won't do that. They won't do that.

713
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 2: Kids play video games.

714
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 1: That's the altern that's probably their best alternative, is my point.

715
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 4: So here's how break it Kyler Murray and the cost

716
00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 4: a good amount of money. Yeah, I believe he's still

717
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,400
Speaker 4: under contract if I'm not mistaken. But the point is

718
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 4: they don't have a backup plan. This is like me

719
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 4: walking into I believe an ECON exam back in college.

720
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 4: The old cram it in my brain before everything method

721
00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 4: did not work, and I got in that class and

722
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:30,760
Speaker 4: I was thinking, boy, I'm like at Romeoville High School.

723
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 4: There are no retakes. I'm failing this test and I

724
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:34,960
Speaker 4: got to be able to bounce back. This is what

725
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 4: the culture going through if they do not find a

726
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 4: way to keep Daniel Jones under contract and he left

727
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 4: for whatever reason, it would cripple the franchise. They would

728
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:46,960
Speaker 4: have no quarterback. Now, some people probably root for that

729
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 4: or be like, hey get him out of here, we

730
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 4: don't want to pay, but their thinking is that we

731
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 4: want to try to run it back with this dude.

732
00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:56,640
Speaker 4: If he were to leave, you would have Riley Leonard

733
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 4: under contract and Anthony Richards are under contract, who, by

734
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:02,840
Speaker 4: the just requested a trade. So are you trying to

735
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 4: hand the keys to either of those guys? Are you

736
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,840
Speaker 4: signing somebody else? In free agency? There is no backup plan.

737
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 4: So I think that's where Jones had a little bit

738
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 4: of leverage to say, hey, sign me, give me what

739
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 4: I want. You guys hit your wagon. I mean, you

740
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 4: have no first round picks.

741
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:19,400
Speaker 2: It's wild to do the torn Achilles, who's really never

742
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 2: stayed healthy as Nflner has this leverage here.

743
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 6: But don't you think also, like when they made that

744
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 6: Sauce Gardener trade, like this was a realistic possibility. Shouldn't

745
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,200
Speaker 6: they have weighed these options like, hey, I know, like

746
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 6: we're trading our next, our future two first round picks

747
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 6: for a guy that's not under contract and the guy

748
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 6: that we think is going to be a top wide receiver.

749
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 6: Is also like they had to know that it might

750
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 6: be one or the other when they made that trade,

751
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:43,520
Speaker 6: or they did they not do their homework or just

752
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:45,720
Speaker 6: thought that Jones would sign on the dotted line regardless.

753
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's a good point market. It's something

754
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,080
Speaker 2: I've kind of gone back onto the Sauce Gardener trade

755
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,479
Speaker 2: of did you weigh everything? Did you weigh all the

756
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 2: tentacles in that trade? And again, the Daniel Jones element

757
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 2: to me was arguably the biggest one of when you're

758
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 2: giving away your two first round picks two years you

759
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 2: are saying, Daniel Jones boom front of the media guide

760
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 2: side of the building. You're the cee on the on

761
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 2: the chest, et cetera. So like you are the guy,

762
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:13,480
Speaker 2: and I, you know, I don't know if I'm in

763
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 2: like this full on panic mode. I'm a big believer

764
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,680
Speaker 2: in the old phrase of deadline spur action.

765
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:24,240
Speaker 6: And the Colts have really they have thought all along.

766
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 2: Jones Pierce back seventeen fourteen, they're gonna be with the

767
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 2: Colts coming up next year. So I and then you

768
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 2: weigh the alternate options, and boy, there's just nothing. Really,

769
00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:39,840
Speaker 2: are you begging Anthony Richardson. Yeah, about that trade request,

770
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,560
Speaker 2: we agreed with. I think we can repair our relationship.

771
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 1: Here's what they're looking at for free agents. As you mentioned,

772
00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:48,239
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray still under contract. Yeah, we may end up

773
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:49,799
Speaker 1: being a free agent, but we'll see. Yeah, they could

774
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:51,799
Speaker 1: they they're probably released. I mean you could sign them,

775
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,720
Speaker 1: I guess. But right now, here are your options. You ready,

776
00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:56,799
Speaker 1: and I'll tell you what the market Ready, I'll tell

777
00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:59,480
Speaker 1: you what the market thinks of these guys. Right now,

778
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 1: the market thinks Daniel Jones is worth forty three million dollars.

779
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:03,520
Speaker 1: That's market value.

780
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 4: That's right around the tag number.

781
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:08,319
Speaker 1: That's not what I'm saying. That's the market value. After that,

782
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:12,840
Speaker 1: your options are Aaron Rodgers at about eleven million, Russell

783
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:17,760
Speaker 1: William Russell Wilson at about six, Marcus Mariota at about five,

784
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,440
Speaker 1: and then after that it's Zach Wilson, tyrod Taylor, Joe Flacco,

785
00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 1: can He Pickett, Jimmy Garoppolo, the usual suspects.

786
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 4: And that's exactly why I could see the argument for

787
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 4: tagging Jones.

788
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 2: But that list, Jeff, did not include fair Hope, Alabama.

789
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:39,319
Speaker 4: Oh lord, I did get that question. I went to

790
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:40,399
Speaker 4: the time.

791
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,640
Speaker 2: Why are you guys laughing? Oh gosh, because I bring

792
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:45,480
Speaker 2: football is about to start down there.

793
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 1: I say, my hope Alabama has made his decision.

794
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:51,880
Speaker 4: So here's a question, has he Here's a question that

795
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 4: I got over the weekend and I made the same

796
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,759
Speaker 4: kind of joke Kevin and I went to the Son

797
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 4: King Brewer event for Peter King that raised money for

798
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,120
Speaker 4: Riley's children, high I s it was a great time.

799
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,480
Speaker 4: Shout out to Kailyn Taylor for topping the show last week.

800
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:07,400
Speaker 4: She hosts it from ESPN every year downtown in Indy

801
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 4: And when I went, one of the fans of the

802
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:12,359
Speaker 4: Colts was like, hey, I got a question for you.

803
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 4: He's asking me and Stephen Holder, I believe. And the

804
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:18,479
Speaker 4: question was and Mark two feet away in as well,

805
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:22,840
Speaker 4: who starts Week one for the Colts and who starts

806
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:28,240
Speaker 4: week seventeen for the Colts? And my answer was Daniel Jones.

807
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:30,120
Speaker 4: And I took a long pause and I was like, well,

808
00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:34,640
Speaker 4: Philip Rivers, do you think Danie's making through the whole season?

809
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 4: I don't know.

810
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:37,799
Speaker 1: Did you not see enough of Riley Leonard last year?

811
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:39,480
Speaker 4: Who started Week one and Week seventeen?

812
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 1: Jones? And then probably.

813
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:46,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I'm with Jeff Mark.

814
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 6: It's Curtis Paynter doing in Week seventeen. But yeah, it's

815
00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 6: just involved with.

816
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,680
Speaker 2: Weddings here locally, Mark dancers.

817
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:57,320
Speaker 1: Questions all about happiness.

818
00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:58,560
Speaker 2: Could be way off on that, but.

819
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:00,279
Speaker 4: I do want to make it clear. I still think

820
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 4: that the most likely scenario myself is that both will

821
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 4: be back. But I just wanted to make it clear

822
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 4: that this isn't a joint at the hip thing. Like,

823
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,279
Speaker 4: both players still have agency, that's what we call it

824
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:16,360
Speaker 4: free agency, and so if one player loses that agency

825
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:19,719
Speaker 4: to the tag, the other player has every right to

826
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:22,799
Speaker 4: see what is out there in their collective market. And

827
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:26,200
Speaker 4: it's an interesting dilemma, I would say, And I could

828
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,640
Speaker 4: see both arguments for why you would tag one or

829
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 4: the other.

830
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would agree. You know, Pierce, I think is

831
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 2: the more accomplished player. I guess we want to label

832
00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:35,839
Speaker 2: it like that, but again, he plays a position that

833
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,279
Speaker 2: isn't as important as quarterback. Yeah, so I think that's

834
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 2: what makes it difficult. And the other element to this

835
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 2: that is really hard is like, well, you don't have

836
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 2: your first round pick in twenty twenty seven, so if

837
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 2: there are people out there and I think there are

838
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:52,400
Speaker 2: some they're like, guys, Daniel Jones is not the answer, right,

839
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,279
Speaker 2: It's not a huge, I think chunk of people, but

840
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:56,279
Speaker 2: there are people out there for sure. I am not

841
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,279
Speaker 2: giving Daniel Jones read off the franchise tag money. What

842
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:00,680
Speaker 2: was it, forty three three.

843
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,680
Speaker 1: Million, five hundred and ninety eight thousand, five hundred and

844
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: fifty two dollars.

845
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,960
Speaker 2: I'm not giving Daniel Jones forty three million coming off

846
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,480
Speaker 2: a torn Achilles. But then it's like, okay, so then

847
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 2: you go whatever, You start Riley Leonard for the whole year,

848
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,640
Speaker 2: and you go five and twelve and you don't have

849
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 2: your first round pick in twenty twenty seven, It's like, again,

850
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 2: where's the light at end of the tunnel? The pacers,

851
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:24,759
Speaker 2: you know, fingers crossed, they will have maybe that light

852
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 2: at the end of the tunnel, or they certainly would have,

853
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 2: you know how they not traded the pick for zoobots

854
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:31,279
Speaker 2: without question. Now it's gonna be a little bit more

855
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:33,799
Speaker 2: up in the air. So I think that's what makes

856
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 2: this challenging for those It's you know, not that the

857
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 2: NFL teams really played the tank game per se, but

858
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:43,440
Speaker 2: you don't have that opportunity.

859
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:45,239
Speaker 1: There can I throw out one name, and again I'm

860
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:46,760
Speaker 1: not advocating.

861
00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 4: For this about the duck behind the desk, but.

862
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,359
Speaker 1: I'm saying the appearances that he made last year were

863
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 1: not bad. Malik Willis.

864
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,520
Speaker 4: That is a name that I think he's gonna get

865
00:38:58,680 --> 00:38:59,720
Speaker 4: a decent amount of money.

866
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 1: To market value is actually up to ten million right now.

867
00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:05,080
Speaker 2: That to those Browns guys who are next to us,

868
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:05,799
Speaker 2: he'll get more than that.

869
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:07,960
Speaker 1: I'm saying that's what the market value says.

870
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 4: Oh no, Jeff, trust me talking people are over at

871
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:12,160
Speaker 4: the combine. He will get way more than that.

872
00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:13,959
Speaker 1: He played as a guy.

873
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, but again, would you rather stick with the dude

874
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 4: that you told us was a big part of your

875
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 4: eight and two started You're trying to start over again

876
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 4: with a different quarterback. I'm telling you there is no

877
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 4: backup plan. The plan is Daniel Jones. And now it

878
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 4: just becomes how much of a risk do you want

879
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:30,920
Speaker 4: to take if you don't tag them and you want

880
00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:32,880
Speaker 4: to try to keep Pierce. So there's a lot of

881
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:35,839
Speaker 4: nuance there, and again I think a lot of it

882
00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:40,720
Speaker 4: is just such a unique situation because had Daniel Jones

883
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 4: stayed healthy, played well, like he had through the first

884
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 4: half of the season, even if they had missed the

885
00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:48,160
Speaker 4: playoffs or whatever. But his numbers are pretty good and

886
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 4: he's healthy, it's a no brainer. You tag him, and

887
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 4: we're not even having a debate over tagging him or

888
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:55,600
Speaker 4: Alec Pierce. But he's not healthy, which is why you

889
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 4: probably think, Okay, can we get away with allowing him

890
00:39:58,960 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 4: to get reached the open mor And I hope and

891
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:05,360
Speaker 4: bank on us having a better relationship with him versus

892
00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 4: other teams swooping in and getting him and getting his services.

893
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 4: There's a lot of trust and loyalty involved, I guess

894
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:16,879
Speaker 4: in these things. But yeah, when Alec Pierce said, hey,

895
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:19,160
Speaker 4: Daniel Jones coming back will be a big thing towards

896
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:21,719
Speaker 4: keeping me back at the end of the season, I

897
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,759
Speaker 4: believed him. I still do. But at the same time,

898
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:26,279
Speaker 4: that was before he could sit down in front of

899
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 4: another team and they could like throw the money on

900
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:29,880
Speaker 4: the table and say how much do you want?

901
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 2: So, James, you think the transition tag would be a

902
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 2: team and let's just play out this. The Colts saying

903
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,319
Speaker 2: to Daniel Jones, you think your market is better than

904
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 2: we do here?

905
00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,000
Speaker 4: You go more or less yes, I do think that

906
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:46,360
Speaker 4: is part of the equation. And because at that point

907
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:49,800
Speaker 4: with the draft, conversation no longer part of the equation.

908
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:51,720
Speaker 4: It's all just about money at that point.

909
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:55,440
Speaker 2: So which is interesting because for the last two months

910
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,719
Speaker 2: both parties Daniel Jones as well, Yeah, they have been

911
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 2: so public in their desire to not only just praise

912
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:05,799
Speaker 2: each other but express like, hey, no, we want this

913
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:09,760
Speaker 2: marriage to continue. Like there's been no public hardball leverage.

914
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:11,680
Speaker 2: I didn't even think there was any of that out

915
00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:14,600
Speaker 2: of ballat last week now, and you usually get that,

916
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:17,040
Speaker 2: like even if you like the guy, even if you

917
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 2: want to bring that guy back, you usually in a

918
00:41:20,000 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 2: public setting will.

919
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 6: Play a little bit of that.

920
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 2: But especially the Colts certainly, and again Daniel Jones, he

921
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 2: talked at the end of the season. You know, neither

922
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,759
Speaker 2: party really has gone down that path. So that's where

923
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,719
Speaker 2: I kind of struggle of like, you know, get me

924
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 2: to four o'clock tomorrow, yeah, and then obviously get me

925
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 2: to you know noon a week from today is just

926
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 2: a two big one.

927
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 4: Well, what's the term is it? Is it posturing or

928
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:49,839
Speaker 4: positioning whatever you're doing to kind of negotiating. Yeah, see, yeah,

929
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,840
Speaker 4: negotiating seeing who is going to who is it? Perhaps

930
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:53,760
Speaker 4: blink first is.

931
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:56,440
Speaker 2: The Vikings that have said to Daniel Jones, here's fifty

932
00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:57,280
Speaker 2: million annually.

933
00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,840
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what they are in theory option. But

934
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 4: they're also way over their cap, like they got to

935
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:06,560
Speaker 4: get rid of a bunch of guys, get Jones under

936
00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 4: the cap and then I mean money wise, it seems

937
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:10,480
Speaker 4: like they will be kind of difficult to make it

938
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 4: work for Daniel Jones. But again, teams can get creative,

939
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:16,920
Speaker 4: teams can get desperate, and do the Colts want to

940
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:19,239
Speaker 4: run that risk if they really do not have a

941
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:22,880
Speaker 4: backup plan for losing Daniel Jones, because they told us

942
00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 4: all along that they want them back. And I get

943
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:27,279
Speaker 4: what you're saying, Kevin about you know, both of them

944
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 4: singing each other's praises, But this is business, and quite frankly,

945
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 4: it is most likely the last time for Daniel Jones

946
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,479
Speaker 4: to get a massive contract. And when will you ever

947
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:38,840
Speaker 4: have this much leverage coming off of torn Achilles?

948
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:42,120
Speaker 1: The biggest question for all of you, especially you Mark,

949
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 1: so pay close attention. What's more likely, gentlemen, that the

950
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 1: Colts end up with both Alec Pearson Daniel Jones or

951
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 1: the Bears moved to Hammond, Indiana.

952
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:56,440
Speaker 4: I like my chances on. I don't know will Mark

953
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:57,239
Speaker 4: sweater sway me.

954
00:42:58,120 --> 00:42:59,760
Speaker 2: He hasn't put it on yet.

955
00:43:00,160 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 4: Not a real fan, not a real fan.

956
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:04,480
Speaker 6: Well, I'm trying to not. I'm trying to avoid an

957
00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:07,120
Speaker 6: HR meeting. Later, someone walks in, like, what are you doing?

958
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:09,319
Speaker 6: Why are you getting undressed? Are you Kevin Bowen? All

959
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:09,840
Speaker 6: of a sudden?

960
00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:12,280
Speaker 1: Did you bring your speed up today?

961
00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:12,480
Speaker 11: Is that?

962
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:13,120
Speaker 1: What's going on?

963
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:14,240
Speaker 6: Not for this weather?

964
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,800
Speaker 1: All right, just double checking, we'll update you.

965
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:19,600
Speaker 4: Where's that though? If the bear has actually moved to

966
00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:22,360
Speaker 4: ham in Indiana, we ne e Mark to do a

967
00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 4: speed our run around.

968
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:25,520
Speaker 1: The last Sure, I'm in for that.

969
00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:27,960
Speaker 2: An orange stripe.

Speaker 7: know that you have every intention of winning a fifth

989
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:29,200
Speaker 7: than to have a dominant day. And the season opener

990

00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:35,920
Speaker 7: he leaves to the bottom of the racetrack, back to

992
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,880
Speaker 7: the high side, clip checkers are out and Alex Below

Speaker 7: will kick off the seeds and in dominant fashion the

994
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:44,680
Speaker 7: way he ended twenty twenty five, he wins the Firestone

00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,720

996
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:56,799
Speaker 1: The best broadcast in all of audio and radio the

997
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:59,920
Speaker 1: India Racing Network, And yesterday Mark James on the call

998
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:04,640
Speaker 1: at Saint Petersburg, once again Alex Below winning he's at

999
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:06,799
Speaker 1: a twenty five about a twenty four to twenty five

1000
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:11,839
Speaker 1: percent win rate. That's insane in auto racing. Insane. And

1001
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:14,319
Speaker 1: we are joined now by that voice Mark James on

1002
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:18,319
Speaker 1: the Paylesslookers Hotline. Good morning, mister James. And I mean

1003
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:20,680
Speaker 1: that you guys, the broadcast you do, and I've talked

1004
00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:24,400
Speaker 1: about this before, it is breathless, is exciting, it is

1005
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:27,360
Speaker 1: on point, it is fantastic, and I love what you

1006
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:27,839
Speaker 1: guys do.

1007
00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,799
Speaker 7: Well. You guys are obviously the mothership. You're very kind

1008
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 7: to say so, and we're happy that people, you know,

1009
00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:39,279
Speaker 7: they seem to enjoy our broadcast at the level of

1010
00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:41,800
Speaker 7: which they do. I think a lot of that stems

1011
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:44,719
Speaker 7: from the fact that, you know, the overwhelming majority of

1012
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:47,920
Speaker 7: us are are Central Indiana guys or Midwestern guys that

1013
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 7: we grow up with the love of IndyCar racing and

1014
00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:54,160
Speaker 7: the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and we think it's easy to

1015
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,320
Speaker 7: share that passion with the fans and how we describe it.

1016
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,040
Speaker 7: In fact, we had Alex Haydon with us, that co

1017
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:01,680
Speaker 7: anchor of MRN yesterday. He was one of our turn

1018
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:04,440
Speaker 7: it ouncers. And you know, Alex was actually born in

1019
00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:06,840
Speaker 7: munths of the Indiana and lived in Indiana for a

1020
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,839
Speaker 7: number of years before he moved down south, So you know,

1021
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:15,040
Speaker 7: he's a a who's your native. And I think we

1022
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:17,840
Speaker 7: got to Seizon off to a great start, and certainly

1023
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:19,600
Speaker 7: not as great of a start as Alex Felow got

1024
00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 7: his season off too, but we had a good day anyway.

1025
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:25,520
Speaker 2: We think Mark always great to hear your voice. When

1026
00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:28,239
Speaker 2: Alex Plow is asked post race race number one of

1027
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:31,760
Speaker 2: the season, are you beatable? I think it's since quite

1028
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,080
Speaker 2: the compliment to what he is doing right now. I

1029
00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:38,000
Speaker 2: compare the allat Tiger Woods in his prime there To

1030
00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 2: me when I'm struck by Mark is just you look

1031
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,120
Speaker 2: at the rest of the field and last year and

1032
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:46,240
Speaker 2: even yesterday, there's parody throughout, like I mean two through fifteen,

1033
00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:48,440
Speaker 2: throw it in a hat and who knows. We obviously

1034
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:50,680
Speaker 2: saw Team Penske have struggles last season, and then you

1035
00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,920
Speaker 2: know yesterday Scott McLaughlin's up there all race long. So

1036
00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,040
Speaker 2: can you put into words like what Alex Plow has

1037
00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:59,319
Speaker 2: done in a series where you usually do not see this?

1038
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:03,360
Speaker 7: I mean it's one of the oldest cliches. I think

1039
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:06,719
Speaker 7: Alex flow and Barry Wanser and everybody with that race

1040
00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:09,319
Speaker 7: team's playing chess and everybody else is playing checkers. And

1041
00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:11,839
Speaker 7: I don't mean to insult the rest of the field, because,

1042
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,359
Speaker 7: as you suggests, there's some great stories throughout and some

1043
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:18,160
Speaker 7: legendary talents and some great teams. But I mean, there

1044
00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:21,279
Speaker 7: is something about this particular package that they've hit on.

1045
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:23,319
Speaker 7: But I think a lot of u's got to do

1046
00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:27,279
Speaker 7: with the driver's ability. But there's something that they are

1047
00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:29,799
Speaker 7: beating their heads against the wall collectively to figure out

1048
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:32,680
Speaker 7: what he's doing that they're not, And I don't know,

1049
00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:35,760
Speaker 7: it's not a matter of You almost think it's gotten

1050
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:37,200
Speaker 7: to the point where he's got to come back to

1051
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:39,400
Speaker 7: earth a little bit, because I don't know if anybody

1052
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:41,439
Speaker 7: else can do anything close to what he's been doing.

1053
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:43,680
Speaker 7: But they'll all keep swinging at it, for sure. You

1054
00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:46,480
Speaker 7: just keep waiting for maybe a little bad luck to

1055
00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:49,960
Speaker 7: come his way. But you know, another old cliche is

1056
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,520
Speaker 7: the harder you work, the luckier you get, And I

1057
00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:54,840
Speaker 7: think that seems to describe that team perfectly.

1058
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:57,279
Speaker 4: Mark. I'm not sure if bad luck is what we

1059
00:47:57,320 --> 00:48:00,160
Speaker 4: would use to describe Penske Auto Racing last year, but

1060
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:04,960
Speaker 4: now going into this season, how would you describe perhaps

1061
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:07,040
Speaker 4: the things that they are trying to do and how

1062
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:08,879
Speaker 4: much of a microscope do you think they'll be under

1063
00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:12,279
Speaker 4: after I would say realistically kind of having a stand

1064
00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:13,279
Speaker 4: on the legacy last year.

1065
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:14,439
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1066
00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:18,960
Speaker 7: You know, it's funny because you look at what kind

1067
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:22,279
Speaker 7: of season they had, and I think, what's unfortunate for

1068
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,040
Speaker 7: all of these teams when when you look at plow

1069
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:28,080
Speaker 7: at eight wins and all the podiums and top fives

1070
00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:31,399
Speaker 7: that he had, that's going to make everybody else's year

1071
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:35,720
Speaker 7: look like it's not up to par. And so that's

1072
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:39,600
Speaker 7: where the natural comparison comes there. The natural inclination is

1073
00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:42,000
Speaker 7: to say, hey, look they're having it off year. I mean,

1074
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,200
Speaker 7: he's making everybody look like they had it off year.

1075
00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:47,200
Speaker 7: But I mean Scott McLaughlin for instance, picked up is

1076
00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:50,200
Speaker 7: what third poll in the last five races, and he

1077
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:53,240
Speaker 7: ran a really good race and he gained some momentum.

1078
00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:55,239
Speaker 7: I think it was a good first effort all at

1079
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:58,560
Speaker 7: all for David Belucaus. It shaped up to me a

1080
00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:02,160
Speaker 7: disastrous weekend for Jim Newgarden after the crash on Friday

1081
00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:04,880
Speaker 7: and not getting out of the first round of qualifying.

1082
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:07,719
Speaker 7: But he he drove a hell of a race, I think,

1083
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:10,440
Speaker 7: and getting himself inside the top ten. I mean, you

1084
00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:12,600
Speaker 7: know they don't do what they do for top tens,

1085
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:16,160
Speaker 7: but I think given what you suggest as struggles last year,

1086
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:19,000
Speaker 7: I think all it all, Team Pesky probably feels like

1087
00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:21,920
Speaker 7: they're excited to get to Phoenix, going back there for

1088
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,399
Speaker 7: the first time I think since twenty eighteen, and that's

1089
00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:27,440
Speaker 7: a track that traditionally Team Pesky has done very very

1090
00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:28,319
Speaker 7: well at.

1091
00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:30,640
Speaker 1: I want to go back to Alex Pelow real quickly

1092
00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:32,799
Speaker 1: if I can, mark because it seems to me that

1093
00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:36,840
Speaker 1: throughout the history of auto racing, whenever a driver is dominating,

1094
00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:39,080
Speaker 1: there's a crew chief behind him. Jeff Gordon of course

1095
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:42,480
Speaker 1: had Ray Evernham, Jimmy Johnson had Chad Canals, and now

1096
00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:46,120
Speaker 1: Alex Below has Ricky Davis. How important is it that

1097
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:48,880
Speaker 1: the right driver be with the right crew chief, with

1098
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:49,880
Speaker 1: the right team.

1099
00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:53,399
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean Ricky Davis, Barry wants are that entire

1100
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:56,120
Speaker 7: race team. I mean we've seen it over the years

1101
00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:58,319
Speaker 7: in all forms of sports. I mean with football, with

1102
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:01,960
Speaker 7: you being in sync with that offensive coordinator, in baseball

1103
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:04,560
Speaker 7: with a pitcher, with a good pitching coach, or a

1104
00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:07,080
Speaker 7: hitter with a good hitting coach. I mean, you know,

1105
00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:11,960
Speaker 7: chemistry I think is very real, that it's very value

1106
00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:15,719
Speaker 7: across all forms of sports. And I don't know that

1107
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:18,399
Speaker 7: you can hit on better chemistry. I mean you look

1108
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:22,240
Speaker 7: at over the years that the drivers that have left

1109
00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:25,279
Speaker 7: teams where they had some success and maybe took a

1110
00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:27,960
Speaker 7: step up to a Ganassi or a Penske or whatever,

1111
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:30,680
Speaker 7: and for whatever the reason, the chemistry wasn't right or

1112
00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:33,160
Speaker 7: Andretti and it just didn't work out and they didn't

1113
00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:36,799
Speaker 7: last very long. But there's certainly a formula there that

1114
00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:38,759
Speaker 7: they've hit on that a lot of people are trying

1115
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 7: to emulate. But as you know, chemistry is a very

1116
00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:44,480
Speaker 7: very difficult thing to duplicate. It's tough to achieve and

1117
00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:46,320
Speaker 7: even tougher to duplicate.

1118
00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:48,719
Speaker 2: Great Mark Jaymes, he's with us here, of course, the

1119
00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:50,640
Speaker 2: voice of the Indy Car Radio Network, and the five

1120
00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:53,080
Speaker 2: hundred coming up here in two and a half months,

1121
00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:55,439
Speaker 2: certainly makes you think about it. On a weather day

1122
00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:59,200
Speaker 2: like today, Mark out to Phoenix coming up Saturday, I

1123
00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:01,279
Speaker 2: believe the first time Indy Car has been there in

1124
00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:04,920
Speaker 2: nearly a decade. It is a busy, busy month of

1125
00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:07,319
Speaker 2: March for IndyCar. We haven't said that, I think in

1126
00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:11,000
Speaker 2: too many recent years here. What do you recall about

1127
00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:13,600
Speaker 2: trips out to that Phoenix over.

1128
00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:17,840
Speaker 7: Well, I was fortunate enough in the early days of

1129
00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:20,879
Speaker 7: the IRL to go out to Phoenix. I remember Jim

1130
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 7: Guthrie with that small Blueprint Motorsports team beat Tony Stewart

1131
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:25,759
Speaker 7: and the rest of the field. I think it was

1132
00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:29,600
Speaker 7: in nineteen ninety seven, and you know the first few

1133
00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:33,560
Speaker 7: years that the series went there. Then I remember the

1134
00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:35,839
Speaker 7: return in twenty eighteen, and it's you know, that's been

1135
00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:37,640
Speaker 7: a hot mid of open wheel racing. I mean the

1136
00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:40,560
Speaker 7: Copperworld Classic was one of the biggest events in history,

1137
00:51:40,560 --> 00:51:42,000
Speaker 7: and I mean it's kind of story in history, and

1138
00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:45,440
Speaker 7: it's I think it's great that that IndyCar Racing is

1139
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:49,319
Speaker 7: back there and looking forward to sharing the bill as

1140
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:52,160
Speaker 7: our Alex Haydon from MRN, who worked with us over

1141
00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:54,319
Speaker 7: the weekend, as we said, he put it, he said, listen,

1142
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:57,239
Speaker 7: he said, there's no undercard next weekend. I mean, you've

1143
00:51:57,320 --> 00:52:00,120
Speaker 7: got you You've got a bunch of banner series. They

1144
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:02,839
Speaker 7: are the best in North America, all racing together on

1145
00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:05,520
Speaker 7: one weekend and it should be an absolute holiday from

1146
00:52:05,560 --> 00:52:08,440
Speaker 7: motorsports fan. Going to be interesting to see how it

1147
00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:12,320
Speaker 7: all shakes out all these mile, mile and a quarter tracks.

1148
00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:16,080
Speaker 7: You know, the desire to get that second groove is

1149
00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:19,680
Speaker 7: always there for those drivers. We can create some passing opportunities.

1150
00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:22,600
Speaker 7: In addition to practice and qualifying, there is going to

1151
00:52:22,640 --> 00:52:24,799
Speaker 7: be a highline practice and an effort to rubber in

1152
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:26,960
Speaker 7: that racetrack a little bit and to give you an

1153
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:28,920
Speaker 7: idea of just what kind of area code he's in

1154
00:52:29,000 --> 00:52:31,320
Speaker 7: again opposed to the as opposed to the rest of

1155
00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:33,839
Speaker 7: the crowd. I mean after the Phoenix test a couple

1156
00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:36,960
Speaker 7: of weeks ago, David Malucas and Will Power were either

1157
00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:41,640
Speaker 7: skeptical or almost pessimistic about a second group coming in,

1158
00:52:41,680 --> 00:52:44,040
Speaker 7: whereas Alex Pelow was common that one would be there

1159
00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:46,440
Speaker 7: at least he felt good about it. So going to

1160
00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:49,080
Speaker 7: be interesting for me to see the reconfiguration. I've not

1161
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,759
Speaker 7: been there since they essentially flipped it, uh moved to

1162
00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:54,880
Speaker 7: start finished line around. But Phoenix is Phoenix that I

1163
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:56,320
Speaker 7: think at the end of the day, it's going to

1164
00:52:56,360 --> 00:52:57,839
Speaker 7: be a great weekend at a great race.

1165
00:52:58,160 --> 00:53:00,120
Speaker 1: Snorwy this morning, Mark, just make sure you got the

1166
00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:02,120
Speaker 1: right tires on to get started this morning.

1167
00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:06,920
Speaker 7: Well, I'm I'm a beneficiary one of the greatest educational

1168
00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:09,359
Speaker 7: tools ever invented, the two hour delay. So I'm looking

1169
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:09,799
Speaker 7: to clean up.

1170
00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:15,839
Speaker 1: Do they your house when that happens to do they

1171
00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:17,839
Speaker 1: wave like a yellow flag out front of your house?

1172
00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:21,640
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1173
00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:24,040
Speaker 7: I just I know that when my phone, when my

1174
00:53:24,120 --> 00:53:26,080
Speaker 7: phone goes off at five point thirty, in my case,

1175
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:27,880
Speaker 7: it's usually good news because that meks.

1176
00:53:27,640 --> 00:53:28,400
Speaker 1: A two hour delay.

1177
00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:30,240
Speaker 7: So I was happy to get that call this morning.

1178
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:31,560
Speaker 1: You are the best.

1179
00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:31,839
Speaker 7: Mark.

1180
00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:33,600
Speaker 1: It's always a pleasure to talk to you. Buddy.

1181
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:36,279
Speaker 7: Guys. Thanks for what you do for us. Appreciate the

1182
00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:36,920
Speaker 7: kind words.

1183
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:39,720
Speaker 1: Thank you very much. Mark Jains one of the best

1184
00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:42,360
Speaker 1: at what he does and joining us on the Paintless

1185
00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:45,040
Speaker 1: Slickers Island. You imagine Kevin in the morning, when it's

1186
00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:48,160
Speaker 1: just too our delay, Mark goes out just waves. He

1187
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:51,440
Speaker 1: sets that yellow flag out in front yard. Let everybody know.

1188
00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:54,800
Speaker 2: He's a Monrovian groundhog out there. You know it sees

1189
00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:58,680
Speaker 2: a shadow Mark Mark James is out there with his flag.

1190
00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:00,600
Speaker 2: Mark Dykton, you look great, by the way, and you're hamming.

1191
00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:01,160
Speaker 2: Thank you.

1192
00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:06,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's phenomenal. It's the softest feeling sweater. I think

1193
00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:08,360
Speaker 6: you look like's coaching assistant.

1194
00:54:08,239 --> 00:54:13,040
Speaker 1: Geez James Boyd. You have posted a picture of Mark

1195
00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:15,919
Speaker 1: and his Hammond Bears sweater over there.

1196
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:18,160
Speaker 4: Well, I'll put we should put a pole out Mark

1197
00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:20,560
Speaker 4: right underneath. I should put a pole rounderneath that. Sweet

1198
00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:23,480
Speaker 4: who wore it better? Kevin Bowen or Mark dyked In?

1199
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:24,040
Speaker 1: But I don't know.

1200
00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:26,279
Speaker 4: I feel like this is when you have like those

1201
00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:28,400
Speaker 4: like jury trials, you got to move it outside of

1202
00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:31,640
Speaker 4: the county or whatever, like people grew up in because

1203
00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:34,520
Speaker 4: you're not gonna get a fair vote. There are people

1204
00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:36,719
Speaker 4: that people have sided with Mark already one thousand as

1205
00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 4: count as they should, and I think him flexing a

1206
00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:40,120
Speaker 4: little bit.

1207
00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:42,560
Speaker 1: I'm kind of surprised he didn't. He didn't put on

1208
00:54:42,600 --> 00:54:44,000
Speaker 1: like a Ditka mustache for that.

1209
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:46,360
Speaker 6: I left it at home because of this damn snow.

1210
00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:53,440
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. But I guess for Bears fans, it

1211
00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:55,799
Speaker 1: looks like maybe the government up there is getting off

1212
00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:58,600
Speaker 1: the schneide. Didn't Pritzker make some announcement saying that they

1213
00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:00,719
Speaker 1: are well on their way to having a path to

1214
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:02,919
Speaker 1: keep the Bears at Arlington Park.

1215
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,440
Speaker 6: I mean that seems like the likely scenario. That's gonna happen.

1216
00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:08,120
Speaker 6: Like all this shuffling of the feet and everything, like,

1217
00:55:08,239 --> 00:55:10,480
Speaker 6: Arlington Heights seems to be the place the Bears want

1218
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:12,560
Speaker 6: to go. For God's sake, they spent three hundred million

1219
00:55:12,560 --> 00:55:15,120
Speaker 6: dollars of their own money to buy the land, so

1220
00:55:15,640 --> 00:55:18,200
Speaker 6: that seems like the default place. But I mean, Indiana's

1221
00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:20,799
Speaker 6: offer is very real, and I've yet to see any

1222
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:23,480
Speaker 6: official agreement or shovels in the ground. And you know,

1223
00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:25,279
Speaker 6: if there is shovels in the ground, it happens to

1224
00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:28,640
Speaker 6: be in Hammond, Indiana. Yours truly, you'll be rocking one

1225
00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:32,560
Speaker 6: of Kevin's jockstraps or something and doing a lap around here.

1226
00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:35,120
Speaker 1: I don't even know where to go on that one.

1227
00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:37,480
Speaker 1: I was gonna ask, do they even race horses Arlington

1228
00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:38,080
Speaker 1: Park anymore?

1229
00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:38,480
Speaker 4: Up there?

1230
00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:40,279
Speaker 6: No, they knocked that horse track down.

1231
00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:42,759
Speaker 1: That's what I thought. So it's just Arlington Heights now

1232
00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:43,600
Speaker 1: Park is gone.

1233
00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:48,520
Speaker 4: Things change, Jeff, just like the Bears coming to Indiana. Things changed.

1234
00:55:48,840 --> 00:55:51,000
Speaker 1: My buddy Jim is listening and I going, come on, man,

1235
00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:55,879
Speaker 1: horse racing's everything. How do you not know that? Rickord, Well, guy,

1236
00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:56,839
Speaker 1: you got a lot of hats.

1237
00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:57,759
Speaker 4: You gotta wear. These days.

1238
00:55:57,800 --> 00:56:00,520
Speaker 1: I know that's how that goes. All right, let's get

1239
00:56:00,600 --> 00:56:05,160
Speaker 1: down to it. Mark Dayton, a boy in shutout.

00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:18,440
Speaker 8: It is March eighth, through gens, tickets and more at

1243
00:56:18,520 --> 00:56:19,759
Speaker 8: Horisonleague dot com.

1244
00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:22,680
Speaker 1: Slashing indeed, Man, if you're just wiping the sleep out

1245
00:56:22,680 --> 00:56:25,640
Speaker 1: of your eyes this morning, Kevin Bowen, most schools are

1246
00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:27,920
Speaker 1: on a delay because we got a little present overnight,

1247
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:28,360
Speaker 1: didn't we.

1248
00:56:29,200 --> 00:56:30,440
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's the president. I want to

1249
00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:31,959
Speaker 2: open up in the month of March, to be honest

1250
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:35,040
Speaker 2: with you, bs, Certainly some snow on the ground for

1251
00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 2: whatever reason you haven't been outside or open up the

1252
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:40,680
Speaker 2: old shades. Yeah, a couple of inches and definitely impacted

1253
00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:46,160
Speaker 2: morning commutes. So seems like DeLay's galore around the city

1254
00:56:46,239 --> 00:56:50,560
Speaker 2: and certainly some highway issues as well. So not what

1255
00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:53,279
Speaker 2: we wanted here. The old Sectional week snow alive and

1256
00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:57,400
Speaker 2: well as we get the Voice Sectionals underway coming up Manyana.

1257
00:56:56,920 --> 00:57:00,359
Speaker 1: So check your text messages, your phone messages, see if

1258
00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:03,520
Speaker 1: your school is on a delayed open today, All right?

1259
00:57:03,600 --> 00:57:06,279
Speaker 1: Sports Grizzlies over the Pacers won twenty five one oh

1260
00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:09,040
Speaker 1: six at the Fieldhouse last night. Jeris Walker led the

1261
00:57:09,040 --> 00:57:12,239
Speaker 1: Pacers with twenty one points, Micah Potter at eighteen, but

1262
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:16,440
Speaker 1: Taylor Hendricks let a balanced Grizzlies attack with nineteen points.

1263
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:20,120
Speaker 1: And uh, what can you say? Most people that are

1264
00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:23,920
Speaker 1: Pacers fans this morning, they're like, okay, Jeris Walker played okay.

1265
00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:25,720
Speaker 1: There are a couple of guys that played okay, but

1266
00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:27,600
Speaker 1: the Pacers lost and we continue on.

1267
00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:30,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's exactly the reaction you got to have, Jeff.

1268
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:33,080
Speaker 4: I know you're out here on this island. You love

1269
00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:36,680
Speaker 4: the Pacers. You want to see victories. No, I understand

1270
00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:38,640
Speaker 4: I'm saying. I mean, like, get it and then the

1271
00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 4: big picture. I didn't mean this season, but I know it.

1272
00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:43,440
Speaker 4: I know it pains you, but brother embraced the pain.

1273
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:46,800
Speaker 1: I'm trying to. I get it. I understand it they're doing.

1274
00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:48,480
Speaker 4: But what my coach is staying in high school, Jeff,

1275
00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:51,720
Speaker 4: get comfortable being uncomfortable when I was running track, and

1276
00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:53,720
Speaker 4: I'd be thinking, Brother, this makes no sense to me,

1277
00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:54,400
Speaker 4: but I'll keep running.

1278
00:57:54,480 --> 00:57:57,160
Speaker 1: But you always got uncomfortable so you could further your

1279
00:57:57,280 --> 00:57:58,040
Speaker 1: chances of winning.

1280
00:57:58,080 --> 00:57:58,680
Speaker 4: There you go.

1281
00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:01,680
Speaker 1: That's the paradox, right, all right, So a four game

1282
00:58:01,760 --> 00:58:05,160
Speaker 1: road trip starts on Wednesdays. The Pacers will be in

1283
00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:07,800
Speaker 1: Los Angeles to play the Clippers. The West coast road

1284
00:58:07,800 --> 00:58:10,560
Speaker 1: trip because we've got action over at the field House

1285
00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:11,000
Speaker 1: all week.

1286
00:58:11,120 --> 00:58:15,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, Women's Big Ten Tournament. Indiana Purdue poor seasons for

1287
00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:18,959
Speaker 2: both from a standing standpoint, so they'll they'll play early.

1288
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:21,320
Speaker 2: I want to say they're both on Wednesday. I'll perdue

1289
00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:22,960
Speaker 2: in the afternoon, I want to say, or Indiana the

1290
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:25,920
Speaker 2: afternoon of the Purdues in the evening over there Gamebridge

1291
00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:29,160
Speaker 2: field House. So yes, Big ten men, I believe in Chicago,

1292
00:58:29,280 --> 00:58:31,840
Speaker 2: if I yeah, this year correctly, and the women here

1293
00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:33,320
Speaker 2: at Gamebridge field House for another year.

1294
00:58:33,360 --> 00:58:35,880
Speaker 1: To be fair to Indiana, though they had a horrific

1295
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:38,040
Speaker 1: start where they couldn't get anything going, and really over

1296
00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:39,840
Speaker 1: the last two three weeks they've actually kind of picked

1297
00:58:39,840 --> 00:58:40,040
Speaker 1: it up.

1298
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:42,760
Speaker 2: They want to more. But both those programs gonna have

1299
00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:44,640
Speaker 2: to win five and five days if they want to

1300
00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:45,600
Speaker 2: be in the NCAA tournament.

1301
00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:48,240
Speaker 1: All right. As for the men, the a busy day yesterday,

1302
00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:51,280
Speaker 1: Ohio State over Purdue in Columbus eighty two to seventy

1303
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:53,920
Speaker 1: four the final. There, John Mobley scored twenty one points

1304
00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:56,439
Speaker 1: for the buck Eyes. The Boilers did have a seven

1305
00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:58,120
Speaker 1: point lead in the first half, but then the buck

1306
00:58:58,120 --> 00:59:00,000
Speaker 1: guys used a fourteen to three run to go up

1307
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:02,000
Speaker 1: twenty three to nineteen, and that was all she wrote.

1308
00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:04,560
Speaker 1: They led by as many as sixteen in the second half.

1309
00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:08,520
Speaker 1: Matt Painter not pleased with his team these days.

1310
00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:10,240
Speaker 3: I wish it was one guy I can fix. I

1311
00:59:10,280 --> 00:59:11,040
Speaker 3: wish it was two guys.

1312
00:59:11,040 --> 00:59:11,440
Speaker 1: So it's not.

1313
00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:13,200
Speaker 3: It's collectively as a team.

1314
00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:14,800
Speaker 11: It's guys that have played in one hundred and twenty

1315
00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:17,480
Speaker 11: five games, and it's a couple others that's played in

1316
00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:18,480
Speaker 11: twenty eight games.

1317
00:59:18,560 --> 00:59:20,560
Speaker 3: That's what we have to have. You can't beat yourself.

1318
00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:24,480
Speaker 1: I think he was watching the same game we were

1319
00:59:24,520 --> 00:59:27,320
Speaker 1: watching Kevin Bowen, wasn't they. I mean they have not

1320
00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:29,400
Speaker 1: played well defensively at all lately.

1321
00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:32,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, defensive questions have been really the story all season long.

1322
00:59:32,560 --> 00:59:34,800
Speaker 2: The ability to, I think, kind of win games where

1323
00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:38,280
Speaker 2: you know they're not in this shootout is definitely a

1324
00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:41,880
Speaker 2: problem for them. So, you know, seemingly they were in

1325
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:43,880
Speaker 2: a good position here whatever a week and a half ago,

1326
00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:46,400
Speaker 2: and now they are looking like they're going to need

1327
00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:47,920
Speaker 2: to win a lot of games in the Big Ten

1328
00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:50,800
Speaker 2: Tournament to get to the championship, and obviously from a

1329
00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:53,520
Speaker 2: seed standpoint, NCAA wise, are you more on the three

1330
00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:57,640
Speaker 2: line versus the two line? What exactly does that pathway

1331
00:59:57,640 --> 00:59:59,040
Speaker 2: look like to get the Indy here?

1332
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:00,320
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1333
01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:02,440
Speaker 2: Right now? You know, I'd say all in all, considering

1334
01:00:02,480 --> 01:00:06,240
Speaker 2: the preseason standards so far, and it's credit obviously to

1335
01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:08,800
Speaker 2: what they've created. But it's been a disappointed regular season

1336
01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:12,480
Speaker 2: and we'll see if they could reverse course. And they've

1337
01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:14,919
Speaker 2: had many years with great regular seasons and the month

1338
01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:16,440
Speaker 2: of March has not gone well. We'll see if they

1339
01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:16,960
Speaker 2: can flip it.

1340
01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:20,520
Speaker 1: Age old question for you, James Boyd. Great free throw

1341
01:00:20,560 --> 01:00:23,920
Speaker 1: disparity in this game. Boilers were seven of ten from

1342
01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:27,200
Speaker 1: the line, Ohio State was twenty five of thirty two.

1343
01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:29,760
Speaker 1: How much of that was just earned because Ohio State

1344
01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:31,000
Speaker 1: was getting to the spot first.

1345
01:00:32,080 --> 01:00:34,240
Speaker 4: I would say a good amount of it. I'm usually

1346
01:00:34,240 --> 01:00:37,680
Speaker 4: not in the camp of oh Man. The whistle was

1347
01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:40,400
Speaker 4: bad for this team when you play with more force,

1348
01:00:40,560 --> 01:00:43,120
Speaker 4: and it's a worry that Rick Carlisle loves to use

1349
01:00:43,120 --> 01:00:45,760
Speaker 4: this force. When you play with more force than the

1350
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:48,360
Speaker 4: other team. You usually get the benefit of the doubt

1351
01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:50,000
Speaker 4: when it comes to the whistle. I cannot blame the

1352
01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:52,640
Speaker 4: refs for how Purdue looked yesterday.

1353
01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:55,480
Speaker 1: Michigan State a winner over Indiana down at Assembly Hall,

1354
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:59,160
Speaker 1: seventy seven sixty four. Jackson Kohler had twenty one points.

1355
01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:01,800
Speaker 1: He came screaming out of the gate for Michigan State

1356
01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:04,080
Speaker 1: last night, had one of his best games. In fact,

1357
01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:06,600
Speaker 1: that was his season high in twenty one points. Jeremy

1358
01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:09,280
Speaker 1: Fears also had twenty one for Michigan State. It got

1359
01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:12,960
Speaker 1: a little interesting towards the end, but never really in doubt,

1360
01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:13,280
Speaker 1: was it.

1361
01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:16,240
Speaker 4: No, never really in doubt. But I would say in

1362
01:01:16,440 --> 01:01:21,440
Speaker 4: doubt and real doubt is the NCAA tournament bid for IU.

1363
01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:23,680
Speaker 4: And at this point, as Kevin pointed out in the

1364
01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:27,640
Speaker 4: first hour of the show, angles resition of trying to

1365
01:01:27,640 --> 01:01:31,320
Speaker 4: figure out NT invites and whether you accept them or not.

1366
01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:34,800
Speaker 1: Spartan's never trailed in this game. Lamar Wilkerson the lone

1367
01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:38,080
Speaker 1: bright spot twenty nine points game high. He had nineteen

1368
01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:41,000
Speaker 1: of those in the second half. By the way, Indiana

1369
01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:44,560
Speaker 1: will play again against Minnesota on Wednesday. Perdue on Friday

1370
01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:47,720
Speaker 1: will be at Northwestern. Also yesterday, Indiana State got a

1371
01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:51,360
Speaker 1: win over Illinois Chicago seventy nine sixty three, and Southern

1372
01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:55,120
Speaker 1: Illinois beat Evansville eighty one to sixty seven. College basketball

1373
01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:58,400
Speaker 1: Combine is coming gone. Omar Cooper junior run a nice

1374
01:01:58,440 --> 01:02:01,000
Speaker 1: four point four to three in the forty dashed. Does

1375
01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:03,400
Speaker 1: he move up into the middle part of the first round?

1376
01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:04,160
Speaker 1: James Boyd.

1377
01:02:05,080 --> 01:02:06,640
Speaker 4: I do think there's a good chance for that, and

1378
01:02:06,680 --> 01:02:09,080
Speaker 4: he had a good showing at the Combine for sure,

1379
01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:12,000
Speaker 4: and unlike Carson Beck, he was not booed Covin.

1380
01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:14,360
Speaker 1: Can you imagine two Indiana Hoosiers going within the top

1381
01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:17,400
Speaker 1: fifteen with one of them being the number one overall

1382
01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:21,600
Speaker 1: pick in an an NFL draft? Well Is Cooper rumored

1383
01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:25,400
Speaker 1: to be on that teneen, but I've heard that after

1384
01:02:25,440 --> 01:02:28,200
Speaker 1: his performance at the Combine he's moved up towards fifteen

1385
01:02:28,240 --> 01:02:30,680
Speaker 1: to twenty. I'd heard that from a couple of folks

1386
01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:33,840
Speaker 1: that I know, an NFL network and things of that nature.

1387
01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:35,640
Speaker 1: So we'll see. It's all analysts. We don't know what

1388
01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:38,040
Speaker 1: teams are thinking, but I wouldn't let's put it this way.

1389
01:02:38,320 --> 01:02:40,160
Speaker 1: I've been told they wouldn't be shocked if he moves

1390
01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:43,200
Speaker 1: up towards the middle to second third of the first round,

1391
01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:43,720
Speaker 1: so we'll see.

1392
01:02:43,760 --> 01:02:44,120
Speaker 4: Interesting.

1393
01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:45,960

1487
01:06:58,600 --> 01:07:01,920
Speaker 1: ninety three five one oh seven five the face. I

1488
01:07:01,960 --> 01:07:04,400
Speaker 1: hear this mark all I can think about besides James

1489
01:07:04,440 --> 01:07:08,640
Speaker 1: Boyd running around the studio. Here is some poor two

1490
01:07:08,720 --> 01:07:10,720
Speaker 1: guard in the NBA is about to get lit up.

1491
01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:11,640
Speaker 1: That's all I think of.

1492
01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:15,320
Speaker 6: Well, if you're a wrestling fan like I was, Saturday

1493
01:07:15,400 --> 01:07:19,760
Speaker 6: night was the Elimination Chamber in Chicago. Seampunk, a Chicago native,

1494
01:07:20,280 --> 01:07:23,760
Speaker 6: came out to the Alan Parsons Project, had Ray Guy

1495
01:07:23,920 --> 01:07:27,360
Speaker 6: do the intro form the legendary Ray Guy, PA announcer for.

1496
01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:29,840
Speaker 1: The Bulls Dynasty in the announcer.

1497
01:07:30,080 --> 01:07:34,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, it was outstanding, outstanding, outstanding.

1498
01:07:34,240 --> 01:07:36,120
Speaker 2: I must say. I thought it was pretty cool to

1499
01:07:36,160 --> 01:07:41,120
Speaker 2: see Jamie Little interview Michael Jordan yesterday after Tyler Reddicks

1500
01:07:41,160 --> 01:07:46,000
Speaker 2: win and like just the sheer like excitement and genuine

1501
01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:50,880
Speaker 2: love for winning that Michael Jordan had on full display

1502
01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:54,320
Speaker 2: after that. Obviously the Hornets thing didn't go very well

1503
01:07:54,360 --> 01:07:57,080
Speaker 2: for him, but like you can tell that he is

1504
01:07:57,160 --> 01:08:01,120
Speaker 2: just still the competive fire burns deeply in him and

1505
01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:03,440
Speaker 2: like he is all about this NASCAR team and what

1506
01:08:03,480 --> 01:08:06,240
Speaker 2: they're doing right now. I wasn't like super familiar with

1507
01:08:06,280 --> 01:08:08,280
Speaker 2: the story, but you know, watching some of that and

1508
01:08:08,720 --> 01:08:11,000
Speaker 2: seeing again his interview with Jamie Little, I thought that

1509
01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:11,560
Speaker 2: was really cool.

1510
01:08:12,280 --> 01:08:16,200
Speaker 1: Uh, first time ever in NASCAR. Think of all the

1511
01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:20,200
Speaker 1: great drivers, Tyler Reddick now has won the first three

1512
01:08:20,360 --> 01:08:24,439
Speaker 1: races of the season. That's never happened before for the

1513
01:08:24,439 --> 01:08:27,720
Speaker 1: Michael Jordan twenty three team.

1514
01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:31,800
Speaker 4: Can one man mint win too much? Is Michael Jordan

1515
01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:32,639
Speaker 4: broke in the system?

1516
01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:35,760
Speaker 1: There's probably a lot of Hornets fans saying shush your mouth, right,

1517
01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:40,080
Speaker 1: that is probably true because he changed for the better.

1518
01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:41,719
Speaker 2: It did and everything.

1519
01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:43,600
Speaker 4: You know, I already think Michael Jordan and some of

1520
01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:47,200
Speaker 4: these you know, godlike athletes are God's favorites. But yeah,

1521
01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:48,439
Speaker 4: shout out to him for getting it done.

1522
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:51,759
Speaker 1: All right, Mark Dyton, what do we have next?

1523
01:08:52,960 --> 01:08:53,519
Speaker 4: Go to the week.

1524
01:08:53,560 --> 01:08:55,640

1526
01:08:58,920 --> 01:09:02,200
Speaker 1: greatest of all time, Jordan. Here's Michael at the filine.

1527
01:09:02,200 --> 01:09:10,439
Speaker 1: I shot on evil God.

1528
01:09:08,400 --> 01:09:21,120
Speaker 5: The goat or goat this guy sucks of the week?

1529
01:09:23,760 --> 01:09:27,880
Speaker 1: All right, Mark Dyton, in honor of that Hammon Bears sweatshirt,

Speaker 1: E're rocking back there. I'm gonna let you lead off

1531
01:09:30,280 --> 01:09:32,040
Speaker 1: today for the what do you want to do? The

1532
01:09:32,040 --> 01:09:33,519
Speaker 1: great goat of the week or the bad gut of

1533
01:09:33,520 --> 01:09:33,800
Speaker 1: the week.

1534
01:09:33,840 --> 01:09:36,320
Speaker 6: We're gonna start at great. Let's go great despite the

1535
01:09:36,360 --> 01:09:39,880
Speaker 6: snow this morning and whatnot. The Chicago Bulls were on

1536
01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:43,479
Speaker 6: eleven in February. The tank is on. However, yesterday they

1537
01:09:43,479 --> 01:09:46,839
Speaker 6: faced the Milwaukee Bucks, and who was in attendance Bears

1538
01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:50,040
Speaker 6: head coach Ben Johnson. He t he's taking his shirt

1539
01:09:50,040 --> 01:09:53,759
Speaker 6: off again, and then what happened? The Bulls throttled the Bucks,

1540
01:09:53,800 --> 01:09:56,120
Speaker 6: including a twenty one and zero run to start the

1541
01:09:56,120 --> 01:09:59,000
Speaker 6: fourth quarter. They win one hundred and twenty to ninety seven,

1542
01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:02,440
Speaker 6: proving once again that Ben Johnson owns the state of Wisconsin,

1543
01:10:02,479 --> 01:10:05,759
Speaker 6: regardless of sports. Will he's soon own to Hammond, Indiana

1544
01:10:05,840 --> 01:10:09,280
Speaker 6: is the question he might need to. He's taken names

1545
01:10:09,560 --> 01:10:10,960
Speaker 6: in Wisconsin, that's for sure.

1546
01:10:11,120 --> 01:10:14,160
Speaker 1: All Right, we'll go in order of right to left.

1547
01:10:14,280 --> 01:10:15,360
Speaker 1: James Boyd, you're next.

1548
01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:19,360
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go with Grayson Gilliard, the senior at center Grove.

1549
01:10:20,160 --> 01:10:22,200
Speaker 4: She got it done with twenty three points in the

1550
01:10:22,200 --> 01:10:25,479
Speaker 4: Class four A state championship. Center Grove comes back from

1551
01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:28,920
Speaker 4: eleven down in that game, tying a state record for

1552
01:10:29,240 --> 01:10:32,280
Speaker 4: the biggest comeback to finish our season twenty nine. And oh,

1553
01:10:32,280 --> 01:10:35,160
Speaker 4: that was a great cap to the overall girls basketball

1554
01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:36,200
Speaker 4: season here in the state.

1555
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:38,680
Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna go with Joe Keller. Who was

1556
01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:41,240
Speaker 1: Joe Keller? You ask if you don't know. He's the

1557
01:10:41,240 --> 01:10:45,240
Speaker 1: Fisher's swim coach. He had had brain surgery for cancer

1558
01:10:45,960 --> 01:10:50,080
Speaker 1: after last year's state meet in swimming, and he knew

1559
01:10:50,120 --> 01:10:52,599
Speaker 1: about his diagnosis before the state meet, but he didn't

1560
01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:54,320
Speaker 1: mention it to his team because he didn't want them

1561
01:10:54,360 --> 01:10:58,640
Speaker 1: to be distracted. He comes back this year and the

1562
01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:02,120
Speaker 1: girl's finished second weeks ago, and the Fisher's boys team

1563
01:11:02,160 --> 01:11:05,640
Speaker 1: finished fifth at state this past weekend. So I just

1564
01:11:05,640 --> 01:11:08,759
Speaker 1: want to say shout out to Joe Keller. Amazing comeback

1565
01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:11,920
Speaker 1: for him personally and also that Fisher swimming team getting it.

1566
01:11:12,160 --> 01:11:14,439
Speaker 1: They've got it going now, they're on the right track. Man.

1567
01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:15,400
Speaker 1: Kind of fun to watch.

1568
01:11:16,640 --> 01:11:20,000
Speaker 2: Well, not easy to follow that one. Jeff makesure gone

1569
01:11:20,040 --> 01:11:22,720
Speaker 2: last after that one, because mine certainly not a sentimental

1570
01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:26,440
Speaker 2: as that at all. I came across my YouTube algorithm

1571
01:11:26,439 --> 01:11:28,599
Speaker 2: this weekend and I found a human being that created

1572
01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:31,080
Speaker 2: a twenty two minute video of March Madness buzzer beaters?

1573
01:11:32,080 --> 01:11:33,400
Speaker 1: Can you send that link along?

1574
01:11:33,720 --> 01:11:36,120
Speaker 2: And I watched it and I might have taken off

1575
01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:41,000
Speaker 2: clothes watching it. It doesn't take much to get him

1576
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:45,200
Speaker 2: to take a sort of pears March Madness buzzer beaters.

1577
01:11:45,360 --> 01:11:49,120
Speaker 2: It was absolutely epic. I will watch it three or

1578
01:11:49,160 --> 01:11:50,840
Speaker 2: four more times, and on a weather day like today,

1579
01:11:50,960 --> 01:11:51,640
Speaker 2: I need to watch it.

1580
01:11:51,720 --> 01:11:54,559
Speaker 1: Will you post the link? Are you gonna hold that

1581
01:11:54,600 --> 01:11:55,040
Speaker 1: to yourself?

1582
01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:57,080
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, post the link, Hey, this is

1583
01:11:57,120 --> 01:11:57,880
Speaker 4: the family show here.

1584
01:11:57,920 --> 01:12:00,439
Speaker 2: Didn't think about posting the link, but I will certainly

1585
01:12:00,479 --> 01:12:01,559
Speaker 2: point you in the right direction.

1586
01:12:01,600 --> 01:12:03,160
Speaker 4: All right, I'll talk for a second. There you're gonna

1587
01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:06,160
Speaker 4: go Luke Hereen Gody twenty two minutes highlight film. I mean,

1588
01:12:06,200 --> 01:12:07,519
Speaker 4: now we'll get the juices fawn as well.

1589
01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:09,360
Speaker 2: He don't get me started. Kind of a quiet night

1590
01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:12,519
Speaker 2: for hoops locally tonight and tomorrow. James, Luke Haroen go

1594
01:12:19,040 --> 01:12:21,519
Speaker 1: Eleven minutes of that, and then eleven minutes a Notre Dame.

1595
01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:22,080
Speaker 4: Right there you go.

1596
01:12:22,479 --> 01:12:25,000
Speaker 2: I know, notice we haven't mentioned Notre Dame's basketball went

1597
01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:27,160
Speaker 2: over the weekend we in North Carolina State. We mentioned

1598
01:12:27,160 --> 01:12:29,760
Speaker 2: the duke performance, but we didn't mention the North Carolina State.

1599
01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:31,080
Speaker 2: Is that not in the rundown?

1600
01:12:31,400 --> 01:12:33,280
Speaker 1: It was not in the rundown. But I figured, I

1601
01:12:33,320 --> 01:12:34,559
Speaker 1: always figure you're gonna be.

1602
01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:37,479
Speaker 2: Selective in terms when we pick mark when we mentioned

1603
01:12:37,479 --> 01:12:39,280
Speaker 2: the Notre Dame men's bast every at the.

1604
01:12:39,320 --> 01:12:42,080
Speaker 1: End of every update, I leave a couple of things

1605
01:12:42,120 --> 01:12:44,080
Speaker 1: for the guys and I say anything else. You guys

1606
01:12:44,080 --> 01:12:46,120
Speaker 1: would like to mention that you have not brought it

1607
01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:48,240
Speaker 1: up in two straight updates. But yeah, you're a real fan.

1608
01:12:48,320 --> 01:12:51,200
Speaker 2: But yet you openly brought up the duke performance last week.

1609
01:12:51,360 --> 01:12:54,120
Speaker 2: So I'm a little confused on the selective mentioning here.

1610
01:12:54,680 --> 01:12:56,479
Speaker 4: Cameras, Mark, we want some parts are moving up in here?

1611
01:12:56,560 --> 01:12:58,439
Speaker 4: Uh huh uh huh, All right, my bad?

Speaker 6: have I seen a nineteen year like pre show announcement.

1618
01:13:16,680 --> 01:13:18,559
Speaker 6: I liked how some of the comments, some of the

1619
01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:19,920
Speaker 6: comments and the tweets were.

1620
01:13:19,840 --> 01:13:21,720

1625
01:13:31,360 --> 01:13:32,880
Speaker 6: would they announce this so far in.

1626
01:13:33,040 --> 01:13:35,920
Speaker 2: Our USGA does this? It's so stupid, Like is that

1627
01:13:35,920 --> 01:13:39,040
Speaker 2: golf course going to exist in twenty seven week.

1628
01:13:38,920 --> 01:13:41,880
Speaker 4: Going to do? We're going to be almost sixty years.

1629
01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:43,879
Speaker 6: Old by the time that Innes Toledo.

1630
01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:46,360
Speaker 2: I think Jack Mewhort's remember there, shout out to former

1631
01:13:46,400 --> 01:13:47,840
Speaker 2: Colt guard Jack Mewhort.

1632
01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:48,080
Speaker 5: There.

1633
01:13:48,080 --> 01:13:50,080
Speaker 6: I saw that, and I couldn't I couldn't. I thought

1634
01:13:50,080 --> 01:13:51,680
Speaker 6: it was an early April Fools joke. I'm like, is

1635
01:13:51,680 --> 01:13:52,280
Speaker 6: this a prank?

1636
01:13:52,320 --> 01:13:54,400
Speaker 2: When I saw Mark tweeting about golf from this weekend,

1637
01:13:54,400 --> 01:13:56,360
Speaker 2: I was like, wait, is this the Shane Lowry collapse

1638
01:13:56,439 --> 01:13:58,880
Speaker 2: or is this actually a serious golf tweet here?

1639
01:13:58,920 --> 01:14:00,320
Speaker 6: I didn't know what was happening. I thought I was

1640
01:14:00,320 --> 01:14:01,320
Speaker 6: getting punked.

1641
01:14:01,840 --> 01:14:04,800
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, so I'll go with my bag go

1642
01:14:04,840 --> 01:14:08,439
Speaker 4: to the week I would say, Bruce Pearl, I don't

1643
01:14:08,479 --> 01:14:10,400
Speaker 4: know if you saw like the rant he went on

1644
01:14:10,479 --> 01:14:14,200
Speaker 4: about same of Ohio there, I believe, twenty nine to zero, undefeated,

1645
01:14:14,200 --> 01:14:15,400
Speaker 4: and he was saying, hey, if they don't win their

1646
01:14:15,400 --> 01:14:17,880
Speaker 4: conference tournament, they shouldn't get into the dance. And I'm

1647
01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:21,320
Speaker 4: thinking to myself, look, man, if you can't find a

1648
01:14:21,360 --> 01:14:24,519
Speaker 4: way for that team, who will probably in the regular

1649
01:14:24,560 --> 01:14:29,080
Speaker 4: season undefeated, to get into a tournament with sixty eight teams,

1650
01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:32,080
Speaker 4: then why play the games. I'm not saying they have

1651
01:14:32,200 --> 01:14:34,880
Speaker 4: to be a number one seed, but my gosh, not

1652
01:14:34,960 --> 01:14:37,840
Speaker 4: even allowing them to be in it is ridiculous. And

1653
01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:41,920
Speaker 4: I thought that that was honestly a disparaging rant on

1654
01:14:41,960 --> 01:14:45,680
Speaker 4: a sport that really I think thrives on parody. At

1655
01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:47,000
Speaker 4: this point in the year, I.

1656
01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:50,200
Speaker 1: Kind of feel like Bruce Pearl is auditioning for first

1657
01:14:50,240 --> 01:14:52,240
Speaker 1: take or something these days, because it feels like every

1658
01:14:52,280 --> 01:14:53,840
Speaker 1: week he's just throwing something out there.

1659
01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:55,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was thoroughly annoyed by that.

1660
01:14:56,320 --> 01:14:58,760
Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna go with an odd one here,

1661
01:14:59,640 --> 01:15:03,479
Speaker 1: Mike bad go to the week is Lady Luck? What

1662
01:15:03,520 --> 01:15:07,639
Speaker 1: does Lady Luck have against big guy Zach Eatie. If

1663
01:15:07,640 --> 01:15:09,439
Speaker 1: it wasn't for bad Luck, he wouldn't have any luck

1664
01:15:09,439 --> 01:15:11,960
Speaker 1: at all. Since he's gotten to the NBA, He's gonna

1665
01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:15,000
Speaker 1: undergo surgery on his left ankle to address lingering discomfort

1666
01:15:15,040 --> 01:15:18,560
Speaker 1: and a stress issue. He's expected to make a full recovery,

1667
01:15:19,040 --> 01:15:22,200
Speaker 1: but these ankle problems they're tough for big guys. He

1668
01:15:22,280 --> 01:15:25,400
Speaker 1: underwent surgery in June twenty twenty five to stabilize that ankle,

1669
01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:27,719
Speaker 1: and the hope was that he would return healthy early

1670
01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:29,519
Speaker 1: in the season. He's gonna miss the rest of this year.

1671
01:15:29,520 --> 01:15:32,200
Speaker 1: Obviously there's not much left. But he only played in

1672
01:15:32,240 --> 01:15:34,240
Speaker 1: eleven games this year. So I'm just mad at Lady

1673
01:15:34,320 --> 01:15:36,240
Speaker 1: Luck because she has not been kind to Zacherdy in

1674
01:15:36,280 --> 01:15:36,719
Speaker 1: that ankle.

1675
01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:41,120
Speaker 2: I will go to the Sunbelt Conference tournament. You all

1676
01:15:41,160 --> 01:15:44,480
Speaker 2: need to look up their bracket. They have the bracket

1677
01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:49,320
Speaker 2: that looks like a flying v bracket here. To win

1678
01:15:49,360 --> 01:15:52,000
Speaker 2: their conference tournament, if you are one of the bottom seeds,

1679
01:15:52,400 --> 01:15:55,759
Speaker 2: you don't have to win one game, two games, three games,

1680
01:15:55,800 --> 01:16:00,400
Speaker 2: four games, seven games in seven days to win their

1681
01:16:00,400 --> 01:16:04,439
Speaker 2: conference tournament. Seven games. You want to talk about load management.

1682
01:16:05,120 --> 01:16:07,559
Speaker 2: Seven games in seven days to win their conference tournament.

1683
01:16:07,720 --> 01:16:10,720
Speaker 1: That should be illegal to do to college kids, man, it.

1684
01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:13,479
Speaker 2: Is absolutely Can we space it out a little bit

1685
01:16:13,520 --> 01:16:15,439
Speaker 2: here like the Horizon League has done this where you know,

1686
01:16:15,680 --> 01:16:17,800
Speaker 2: you play some games on campus here to start off,

1687
01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:19,960
Speaker 2: then you go to the quarterfinal round. I believe this

1688
01:16:20,040 --> 01:16:22,080
Speaker 2: year they're gonna have more of it over there at

1689
01:16:22,320 --> 01:16:23,960
Speaker 2: or to have a coliseum, and again we'll be out

1690
01:16:23,960 --> 01:16:27,479
Speaker 2: there next week to broadcast seven games in seven days.

1691
01:16:28,640 --> 01:16:31,360
Speaker 2: Unbelievable here. It's one of the funniest brackets I've seen.

1692
01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:35,840
Speaker 2: Shout out to Louisiana, Georgia State. Shout out to Ron Hunter.

1693
01:16:35,840 --> 01:16:37,439
Speaker 2: By the way, did you see Michael Shrewsbury using the

1694
01:16:37,479 --> 01:16:40,679
Speaker 2: Ron Hunter scooter on Saturday? No, because we haven't brought

1695
01:16:40,720 --> 01:16:44,000
Speaker 2: up Notre Dame being into the state yet. Louisiana Monroe

1696
01:16:44,120 --> 01:16:44,879
Speaker 2: and Old Dominion.

1697
01:16:46,920 --> 01:16:49,040
Speaker 1: I think he's won in one since he started the scooter,

1698
01:16:49,120 --> 01:16:49,559
Speaker 1: isn't he.

1699
01:16:49,720 --> 01:16:50,479
Speaker 2: No, he's won in Oh.

1700
01:16:50,640 --> 01:16:53,120
Speaker 4: You see when Kevin brought up Notre Dame, the lights

1701
01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:55,000
Speaker 4: went out in the hallway. They did come on, man,

1702
01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:56,559
Speaker 4: we lose the power because it is.

1703
01:16:56,520 --> 01:16:57,679
Speaker 2: Did we just go off air mark?

1704
01:16:58,720 --> 01:17:00,040
Speaker 1: I think I think no one's.

1705
01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:01,800
Speaker 6: Walked in the hallways for a few minutes of the

1706
01:17:01,800 --> 01:17:02,920
Speaker 6: motion detectors go on.

1707
01:17:03,000 --> 01:17:03,479
Speaker 1: Oh.

1708
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:05,519
Speaker 4: I thought that was the soul of of you know,

1709
01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:07,800
Speaker 4: the Notre Dame fan base leaving once you saw Marcus

1710
01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:08,400
Speaker 4: Burdon go down.

1711
01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:10,160
Speaker 2: That was a quad one win for Notre Dame.

1712
01:17:13,120 --> 01:17:15,559
Speaker 1: Who has more quad one wins? Indiana or Notre Dame.

1713
01:17:16,479 --> 01:17:20,479
Speaker 2: Well, the harsh reality is Notre Dame. Yeah take that,

1714
01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:25,080
Speaker 2: uh huh, yeah, soul mild iu stat from this weekend.

1715
01:17:25,439 --> 01:17:30,200
Speaker 2: So the loss on Saturday clinched another year of five

1716
01:17:30,280 --> 01:17:33,360
Speaker 2: hundred or worse in the Big ten. They now have

1717
01:17:33,479 --> 01:17:37,920
Speaker 2: had eleven of their last thirteen seasons they've been five

1718
01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:41,120
Speaker 2: hundred or worse in the Big ten. Let me think

1719
01:17:41,120 --> 01:17:46,040
Speaker 2: about that. Eleven of thirteen years at five hundred or

1720
01:17:46,040 --> 01:17:47,320
Speaker 2: worse in the Big time.

1721
01:17:48,800 --> 01:17:50,719
Speaker 1: I saw over the weekend they had made a list.

1722
01:17:50,840 --> 01:17:53,439
Speaker 1: Somebody at college basketball site had made a list of

1723
01:17:53,520 --> 01:17:56,080
Speaker 1: five programs that just aren't what they used to be,

1724
01:17:56,240 --> 01:17:57,880
Speaker 1: and Indianna was third on them.

1725
01:17:57,960 --> 01:17:59,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're certainly on that list.

1726
01:17:59,439 --> 01:18:02,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, that's what's happening in the world of

1727
01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:05,240
Speaker 1: great and not so great goats. In a moment, we'll

1728
01:18:05,280 --> 01:18:08,559
Speaker 1: continue talking about the coming and going of the NFL

1729
01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:10,559
Speaker 1: combine what it means for the Colts and what they

1730
01:18:10,560 --> 01:18:12,599
Speaker 1: have to look forward to. We'll even talk to Jay

1731
01:18:12,640 --> 01:18:15,200
Speaker 1: Carthur about that coming up at about twenty minutes from now.

1732
01:18:15,240 --> 01:18:16,760
Speaker 1: It's all right here at ninety three five and one

1733
01:18:16,760 --> 01:18:17,680
Speaker 1: oh seven five.

1734
01:18:19,000 --> 01:18:21,719
Speaker 8: You were listening to the Fan Morning show on Sports

1735
01:18:21,800 --> 01:18:24,920
Speaker 8: Radio ninety three five and one oh seven five The Fan.

1736
01:18:26,160 --> 01:18:28,559
Speaker 1: We've been talking about it being March all morning long,

1737
01:18:28,600 --> 01:18:31,240
Speaker 1: and that means basketball obviously, not just here in the

1738
01:18:31,280 --> 01:18:33,280
Speaker 1: state of Indiana, but all over the nation. And we'll

1739
01:18:33,280 --> 01:18:35,479
Speaker 1: have the final four here a little bit later on

1740
01:18:35,920 --> 01:18:38,120
Speaker 1: at the end of March slash really beginning of April.

1741
01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:41,280
Speaker 1: But in the meantime, March in like a lion, that's

1742
01:18:41,320 --> 01:18:43,960
Speaker 1: for sure, because it announced itself with three inches of

1743
01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:47,000
Speaker 1: snow in some places around here this morning, so I.

1744
01:18:46,960 --> 01:18:49,439
Speaker 4: Went to the store maybe last night, around maybe nine

1745
01:18:49,479 --> 01:18:51,519
Speaker 4: forty five, to go grab a couple of thing milk

1746
01:18:51,600 --> 01:18:54,479
Speaker 4: and cereal whatever else, you know, the essentials. And I

1747
01:18:54,560 --> 01:18:56,639
Speaker 4: come back this morning and I'm like, what the heck

1748
01:18:56,720 --> 01:18:58,240
Speaker 4: happened overnight?

1749
01:18:58,760 --> 01:19:00,599
Speaker 1: It was when I let the dog. I got the

1750
01:19:00,720 --> 01:19:02,519
Speaker 1: to end the night last night, before we went to bed,

1751
01:19:02,560 --> 01:19:04,720
Speaker 1: it was starting to get cold and windy, and I

1752
01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:06,320
Speaker 1: knew that there was supposed to be like a I

1753
01:19:06,360 --> 01:19:09,200
Speaker 1: thought a little dusting was coming right image my surprise,

1754
01:19:09,280 --> 01:19:10,760
Speaker 1: this morning I let the dog out, there's like three

1755
01:19:10,800 --> 01:19:12,360
Speaker 1: inches of snow on the ground up north.

1756
01:19:12,640 --> 01:19:15,160
Speaker 2: Your guys' thoughts on this and getting back to Daniel

1757
01:19:15,240 --> 01:19:19,479
Speaker 2: Jones conversation, This is from Dan. Dan goes, if Daniel

1758
01:19:19,560 --> 01:19:21,920
Speaker 2: Jones is playing hardball, the Colts should tell him to go.

1759
01:19:23,360 --> 01:19:24,719
Speaker 1: You know what, leave himself.

1760
01:19:25,040 --> 01:19:28,719
Speaker 2: Ballard is negotiating against himself. We just saved his NFL career.

1761
01:19:28,800 --> 01:19:31,439
Speaker 2: They openly fawned over each other for the past twelve months.

1762
01:19:31,720 --> 01:19:33,960
Speaker 2: Go find another offer over thirty million a year, and

1763
01:19:33,960 --> 01:19:37,879
Speaker 2: I'd be shocked. Kyler mac Jones, Kirk Cousins, Aaron Rodgers,

1764
01:19:37,880 --> 01:19:42,040
Speaker 2: Tua Malik Willis. There are options, healthy ones, young ones,

1765
01:19:42,960 --> 01:19:46,639
Speaker 2: no one is paying Daniel Jones forty five plus million.

1766
01:19:47,720 --> 01:19:49,439
Speaker 1: Hold his beer, James thoughts.

1767
01:19:50,840 --> 01:19:53,080
Speaker 4: I think that he's probably right in a nutshell. I

1768
01:19:53,120 --> 01:19:56,400
Speaker 4: love the candor which we did, you know, read a

1769
01:19:56,400 --> 01:19:59,600
Speaker 4: little bit more maybe on these FCC airwaves. But my

1770
01:19:59,720 --> 01:20:05,599
Speaker 4: thing is that there is still a slight risk if

1771
01:20:05,640 --> 01:20:10,160
Speaker 4: you allow Daniel Jones to reach free agency, and how

1772
01:20:10,240 --> 01:20:14,519
Speaker 4: much do you trust a perhaps handshake agreement for him

1773
01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:17,360
Speaker 4: to come back if you tag Alec Pierce. That's what

1774
01:20:17,439 --> 01:20:19,040
Speaker 4: it comes down to me when I was going through

1775
01:20:19,080 --> 01:20:23,760
Speaker 4: all the scenarios, and I agree, I mean personally, I

1776
01:20:23,760 --> 01:20:25,519
Speaker 4: probably would have been a little more hesitant just to

1777
01:20:25,520 --> 01:20:27,439
Speaker 4: begin with when it comes to Daniel Jones because of

1778
01:20:27,479 --> 01:20:30,479
Speaker 4: the injury history and we traded two first round picks

1779
01:20:30,479 --> 01:20:34,320
Speaker 4: and I get all that. But my point is how

1780
01:20:34,400 --> 01:20:36,840
Speaker 4: much do you trust him, Like if you give him

1781
01:20:36,880 --> 01:20:39,559
Speaker 4: your word? I mean, how much is word is bond? Hey,

1782
01:20:39,640 --> 01:20:41,559
Speaker 4: we're gonna tag Alec Pierce. We love you, we want

1783
01:20:41,600 --> 01:20:44,280
Speaker 4: you back here, we'll give get you back at this price. Well,

1784
01:20:44,280 --> 01:20:46,400
Speaker 4: couldn't you do that right now? If that's the case.

1785
01:20:46,920 --> 01:20:50,760
Speaker 4: So I don't know, it's an interesting dilemma. But I

1786
01:20:50,760 --> 01:20:54,320
Speaker 4: also see why certain parts of the fan base are like, Nah,

1787
01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:56,360
Speaker 4: we're not just gonna give this guy a big bag

1788
01:20:56,400 --> 01:20:59,519
Speaker 4: of money, knowing he's only had one full season in

1789
01:20:59,520 --> 01:21:02,719
Speaker 4: which he has been injured or benched, which I respect.

1790
01:21:03,200 --> 01:21:05,360
Speaker 2: Mark, what's the update on that poll you did earlier

1791
01:21:05,520 --> 01:21:08,720
Speaker 2: in the show. I saw that you asked if you

1792
01:21:08,720 --> 01:21:11,080
Speaker 2: could franchise tag one. I think was your clarity on it,

1793
01:21:11,200 --> 01:21:12,800
Speaker 2: Jones or Piers Uh?

1794
01:21:12,960 --> 01:21:15,840
Speaker 6: I think the exact question was, if it comes down

1795
01:21:15,880 --> 01:21:17,680
Speaker 6: to one or the other, the coult should keep, And

1796
01:21:17,720 --> 01:21:20,840
Speaker 6: I said, Daniel Jones are Alk Pierce. Alec Pierce is

1797
01:21:21,000 --> 01:21:24,719
Speaker 6: sixty five point three percent, Daniel Jones thirty four point seven.

1798
01:21:25,560 --> 01:21:28,599
Speaker 1: Think about that. That that people are saying a quarterback,

1799
01:21:28,640 --> 01:21:32,000
Speaker 1: the only quarterback that's had any run of success truly

1800
01:21:32,560 --> 01:21:37,040
Speaker 1: since Philip Rivers the first time around, is only getting

1801
01:21:37,240 --> 01:21:39,120
Speaker 1: a third of the vote on that. Think about that

1802
01:21:39,160 --> 01:21:41,960
Speaker 1: for a second again, context matters.

1803
01:21:42,120 --> 01:21:43,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you know obviously, so much of that

1804
01:21:43,760 --> 01:21:46,479
Speaker 2: poll to me, Mark reads you know who obviously is

1805
01:21:46,479 --> 01:21:49,600
Speaker 2: the better player? You know when you factor in positional importance.

1806
01:21:49,640 --> 01:21:52,200
Speaker 2: And I just think the cults are in this awkward

1807
01:21:52,280 --> 01:21:55,840
Speaker 2: corner when it comes to Daniel Jones, like, yes, he's

1808
01:21:55,880 --> 01:21:58,519
Speaker 2: coming off with torn achilles, so weirdly, you would think

1809
01:21:58,560 --> 01:22:01,479
Speaker 2: the team would have some leverage. But then again, we

1810
01:22:01,560 --> 01:22:03,840
Speaker 2: played the game earlier of like, Okay, who is your

1811
01:22:03,840 --> 01:22:06,639
Speaker 2: starting quarterback? And you read off those names. I don't

1812
01:22:06,680 --> 01:22:09,479
Speaker 2: think you know any of them. You're saying, hey, you

1813
01:22:09,520 --> 01:22:11,200
Speaker 2: bring that guy here, and you're all of a sudden

1814
01:22:11,240 --> 01:22:14,639
Speaker 2: gonna win more than you would with Jones per se.

1815
01:22:14,800 --> 01:22:17,640
Speaker 2: But I just think the difficult nature to all of

1816
01:22:17,640 --> 01:22:20,519
Speaker 2: this is rooted in the Sauce Gardner trade of Like again,

1817
01:22:20,600 --> 01:22:23,920
Speaker 2: when you made that trade, you said to Daniel Jones,

1818
01:22:24,600 --> 01:22:29,760
Speaker 2: you're our guy. You're our guy, and I just thought

1819
01:22:29,760 --> 01:22:33,360
Speaker 2: that was premature to be doing that. But you have

1820
01:22:33,439 --> 01:22:39,760
Speaker 2: no other alternative from a young promising standpoint. The only

1821
01:22:39,800 --> 01:22:43,280
Speaker 2: alternatives are the names I just read off, and albeit

1822
01:22:43,840 --> 01:22:46,599
Speaker 2: maybe some of those names offer something, they all offer

1823
01:22:46,640 --> 01:22:48,960
Speaker 2: a little bit of a yeah, but all those names do.

1824
01:22:50,400 --> 01:22:53,639
Speaker 2: So I think that's what makes this as awkward as

1825
01:22:54,360 --> 01:22:56,040
Speaker 2: it really seems like it's playing out here as we

1826
01:22:56,080 --> 01:22:58,839
Speaker 2: reach that franchise tag debt deadline tomorrow at four o'clock.

1827
01:22:58,880 --> 01:23:00,920
Speaker 1: I don't disagree with you, but again, in full disclosure,

1828
01:23:00,960 --> 01:23:03,080
Speaker 1: at the time of the trade for Sauce Gardner. The

1829
01:23:03,120 --> 01:23:06,760
Speaker 1: Colts had pretty much been rolling, and I don't think

1830
01:23:06,760 --> 01:23:09,760
Speaker 1: any of us could foresee the number and breadth of

1831
01:23:09,800 --> 01:23:13,080
Speaker 1: injuries that the Colts would suffer. No, but jo injury

1832
01:23:13,080 --> 01:23:16,320
Speaker 1: industry was there. I get that. But I remember I

1833
01:23:16,680 --> 01:23:19,400
Speaker 1: can only speak for myself, but I remember being like, Okay,

1834
01:23:19,640 --> 01:23:20,760
Speaker 1: I can see where this is going.

1835
01:23:20,680 --> 01:23:22,080
Speaker 2: To go right now, but do you live in a

1836
01:23:22,080 --> 01:23:23,800
Speaker 2: short term bed or a long term bed?

1837
01:23:24,600 --> 01:23:26,559
Speaker 1: I was living in a let's get something going for

1838
01:23:26,600 --> 01:23:27,800
Speaker 1: the first time in Forever bed.

1839
01:23:27,840 --> 01:23:29,599
Speaker 4: I was gonna say out a full size for a while.

1840
01:23:29,680 --> 01:23:31,840
Speaker 4: I think I went upgrade a little bit, you know,

1841
01:23:32,240 --> 01:23:37,280
Speaker 4: still growing, but you know, I don't have the California

1842
01:23:37,360 --> 01:23:40,400
Speaker 4: king space or money right now. But yeah, you make

1843
01:23:40,439 --> 01:23:43,160
Speaker 4: a good point, Kevin. I would probably say it with

1844
01:23:43,160 --> 01:23:45,200
Speaker 4: more in Jeff's camp at the time of like, oh

1845
01:23:45,240 --> 01:23:47,040
Speaker 4: you know what they're going for. We haven't seen them

1846
01:23:47,080 --> 01:23:50,720
Speaker 4: do this, and it kind of crashed and burned the

1847
01:23:50,720 --> 01:23:52,400
Speaker 4: way it played out for the rest of the season.

1848
01:23:52,400 --> 01:23:54,559
Speaker 4: And then now, yeah, I just go back to what

1849
01:23:54,560 --> 01:23:57,040
Speaker 4: I said earlier in the show. You have not given

1850
01:23:57,080 --> 01:24:02,080
Speaker 4: yourself any contingency plan whatsoever. And I get that you

1851
01:24:02,120 --> 01:24:04,040
Speaker 4: can go out there and get a Malik Willis. You

1852
01:24:04,080 --> 01:24:07,200
Speaker 4: can get a Kyler Murray, but then you'd have to

1853
01:24:07,320 --> 01:24:10,200
Speaker 4: start over with building your offense around those guys. They

1854
01:24:10,200 --> 01:24:13,920
Speaker 4: have similar skill sets, but you'd have to rebuild your offense,

1855
01:24:14,320 --> 01:24:16,920
Speaker 4: get that guy integrated with new teammates, and then I

1856
01:24:16,920 --> 01:24:18,519
Speaker 4: hope that it works out. And then are you giving

1857
01:24:18,520 --> 01:24:20,840
Speaker 4: that person a long term deal? Are you giving them

1858
01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:21,559
Speaker 4: a short term deal?

1859
01:24:21,600 --> 01:24:21,680
Speaker 11: Like?

1860
01:24:21,720 --> 01:24:24,040
Speaker 4: Are you hitching your like people who say, like, oh,

1861
01:24:24,160 --> 01:24:27,559
Speaker 4: Malik Willis, Kyler Murray, whatever, are you signing them to

1862
01:24:27,560 --> 01:24:28,400
Speaker 4: a multi year deal?

1863
01:24:28,720 --> 01:24:31,840
Speaker 2: Yeah? I keep on coming back to the guarantees and

1864
01:24:31,880 --> 01:24:35,160
Speaker 2: whatever quarterback contract you give out here over the next

1865
01:24:35,240 --> 01:24:38,360
Speaker 2: whatever forty eight hours or week and a half, those

1866
01:24:38,439 --> 01:24:42,360
Speaker 2: guarantees need to end when the first round pick shows up.

1867
01:24:42,360 --> 01:24:45,200
Speaker 4: Again, I would agree with that, yeah, because that that

1868
01:24:45,240 --> 01:24:48,719
Speaker 4: should be your year to pivot hit a hard rece.

1869
01:24:48,680 --> 01:24:50,720
Speaker 2: Pivot if you need to. Yeah, you can make the

1870
01:24:50,760 --> 01:24:52,479
Speaker 2: argument that they need to pivot earlier in that, but again,

1871
01:24:52,520 --> 01:24:54,320
Speaker 2: you don't have the first round pick right to be

1872
01:24:54,360 --> 01:24:57,400
Speaker 2: able to do that, So that would be I guess,

1873
01:24:57,880 --> 01:24:59,679
Speaker 2: I don't I don't know if I have this strong

1874
01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:03,719
Speaker 2: viction to be honest with you on the quarterback names

1875
01:25:04,400 --> 01:25:06,120
Speaker 2: you know, a lot of those names I think gets

1876
01:25:06,120 --> 01:25:08,720
Speaker 2: you to the same end result that we just rated off.

1877
01:25:08,840 --> 01:25:11,559
Speaker 2: It's more of a I just don't think you are

1878
01:25:11,560 --> 01:25:14,920
Speaker 2: in a position to be hitching your wagons to any

1879
01:25:14,920 --> 01:25:20,400
Speaker 2: of those names for three four years of a guarantee contract.

1880
01:25:21,320 --> 01:25:23,000
Speaker 2: And I think that's what Dan was saying a little

1881
01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:26,080
Speaker 2: bit in regard to Daniel Jones. You know, you haven't

1882
01:25:26,080 --> 01:25:28,960
Speaker 2: necessarily earned the right to all of a sudden demand

1883
01:25:30,000 --> 01:25:32,120
Speaker 2: that you're in this sort of position, And I agree

1884
01:25:32,160 --> 01:25:34,479
Speaker 2: with that. But again, as James just pointed out, the

1885
01:25:34,520 --> 01:25:37,800
Speaker 2: alternative options here in Indianapolis are a you know what

1886
01:25:38,160 --> 01:25:40,880
Speaker 2: Ryla Leonarder all of a sudden telling Anthony Richardson you

1887
01:25:40,960 --> 01:25:42,280
Speaker 2: slept on it for a few days and now you

1888
01:25:42,280 --> 01:25:42,800
Speaker 2: want them back.

1889
01:25:45,080 --> 01:25:46,840
Speaker 4: I mean, that's where you're at.

1890
01:25:47,360 --> 01:25:49,679
Speaker 1: We'll talk to Jake Arthur, a sports illustrated who covers

1910
01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:44,240
Speaker 1: in that front. We'll tell you about the cults with

1911
01:26:44,360 --> 01:26:46,559
Speaker 1: Jake Arthur Sports Illustrated at a Moment on ninety three

1912
01:26:46,560 --> 01:26:47,920
Speaker 1: five and one oh seven to five of the fans.

1913
01:26:51,800 --> 01:26:54,920
Speaker 8: You're listening to the Fan Morning Show on Sports Radio

1914
01:26:55,080 --> 01:26:57,479
Speaker 8: ninety three five and one oh seven five The.

1915
01:26:57,479 --> 01:27:02,759
Speaker 1: Fan Fox fifty nine up on the screen this morning,

1916
01:27:02,760 --> 01:27:04,240
Speaker 1: and I always let you know what's going on when

1917
01:27:04,240 --> 01:27:06,440
Speaker 1: they're on their little set they have in the background,

1918
01:27:06,439 --> 01:27:09,080
Speaker 1: snow was falling all over the place behind them, James.

1919
01:27:09,080 --> 01:27:11,320
Speaker 1: And if you're just waking up this morning, there are

1920
01:27:11,320 --> 01:27:13,000
Speaker 1: probably a few more inches of snow than you were

1921
01:27:13,000 --> 01:27:14,880
Speaker 1: expected when you went to bed last night.

1922
01:27:15,640 --> 01:27:17,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure, I mean, I will I will say,

1923
01:27:17,720 --> 01:27:19,920
Speaker 4: I'll admit right now that I was not prepared. And

1924
01:27:19,960 --> 01:27:21,920
Speaker 4: you all know I walk in at six fifty six

1925
01:27:22,000 --> 01:27:24,640
Speaker 4: every day, and so as I get out there to

1926
01:27:24,680 --> 01:27:26,600
Speaker 4: my car, I'm like, oh, I have to be the

1927
01:27:26,680 --> 01:27:28,679
Speaker 4: jerk that has a ton of snow in his car

1928
01:27:29,000 --> 01:27:31,040
Speaker 4: because I gotta get to work. So we clean the

1929
01:27:31,040 --> 01:27:33,240
Speaker 4: front reels, winsheet off, and then the rest of it.

1930
01:27:33,840 --> 01:27:34,960
Speaker 4: I'll get rafter the show.

1931
01:27:35,040 --> 01:27:36,679
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm not gonna be mad at because

1932
01:27:36,680 --> 01:27:38,559
Speaker 1: I had to make a phone call to market about

1933
01:27:39,080 --> 01:27:41,479
Speaker 1: six thirty five this morning. That's is usually around the

1934
01:27:41,520 --> 01:27:43,720
Speaker 1: time I roll in, and I was still a good

1935
01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:46,280
Speaker 1: fifteen twenty minutes away and not knowing whether or not

1936
01:27:46,320 --> 01:27:48,120
Speaker 1: I was actually gonna get in on time. Kevin, it

1937
01:27:48,160 --> 01:27:48,760
Speaker 1: was kind of weird.

1938
01:27:48,960 --> 01:27:51,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a Marcus saying when I walked in, and

1939
01:27:51,240 --> 01:27:53,559
Speaker 2: I mean there's been some delays on highways and looked

1940
01:27:53,560 --> 01:27:55,160
Speaker 2: like there's a truck on fire, I believe on the

1941
01:27:55,200 --> 01:27:58,439
Speaker 2: west side. So hopefully everyone is safe out there, and

1942
01:27:58,560 --> 01:28:01,599
Speaker 2: for some reason you're just now getting out. It's likely

1943
01:28:01,640 --> 01:28:03,360
Speaker 2: going to be a little bit longer for the old

1944
01:28:03,360 --> 01:28:04,040
Speaker 2: morning commute.

1945
01:28:04,280 --> 01:28:06,479
Speaker 1: All right, let's go back to talking about Colts for

1946
01:28:06,560 --> 01:28:08,960
Speaker 1: just a second. Here. Our good friend Jake Arthur is

1947
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:11,839
Speaker 1: the co deputy editor of Indianapolis Colts on Sports Illustrated.

1948
01:28:11,880 --> 01:28:14,400
Speaker 1: He's covered the team in the NFL for a better

1949
01:28:14,439 --> 01:28:16,160
Speaker 1: part of a decade, if not more, and he's kind

1950
01:28:16,280 --> 01:28:18,960
Speaker 1: enough to join us on the Payless Liquors hotline right now.

1951
01:28:19,439 --> 01:28:21,640
Speaker 1: Good morning, Jake Arthur. I hope weather is not a

1952
01:28:21,680 --> 01:28:23,799
Speaker 1: factor for you. I hope you're working safely and warmly

1953
01:28:23,840 --> 01:28:24,799
Speaker 1: from home this morning.

1954
01:28:26,040 --> 01:28:27,920
Speaker 9: I can't say the same for the kids. Got the

1955
01:28:27,960 --> 01:28:28,800
Speaker 9: old two hours away.

1956
01:28:28,960 --> 01:28:31,759
Speaker 1: That way, what can you do? That's how it goes.

1957
01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:35,240
Speaker 1: No two hour delays or delays of any kind coming

1958
01:28:35,280 --> 01:28:37,400
Speaker 1: up for the Colts. They got decisions to make and

1959
01:28:37,439 --> 01:28:39,599
Speaker 1: the deadlines are coming up. What do we know so far?

1960
01:28:40,960 --> 01:28:43,400
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean it's it's tough. I mean, we know

1961
01:28:43,479 --> 01:28:46,519
Speaker 9: what the Colts that deadlines kind of spur action with them.

1962
01:28:47,120 --> 01:28:49,240
Speaker 9: They kind of let things go up to the eleventh hour,

1963
01:28:49,280 --> 01:28:53,799
Speaker 9: which we're pretty much there. I do imagine both tags,

1964
01:28:53,840 --> 01:28:57,320
Speaker 9: the franchise tag and transition tag, those could both be

1965
01:28:57,400 --> 01:29:00,639
Speaker 9: in play. I can't really recall the time I've ever

1966
01:29:00,800 --> 01:29:04,840
Speaker 9: seen the Coltses transition, but it honestly would probably be

1967
01:29:05,720 --> 01:29:12,240
Speaker 9: financially appropriate for either of them. But with Alec Pierce,

1968
01:29:12,520 --> 01:29:15,000
Speaker 9: I've got to think that the market there is just

1969
01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:18,960
Speaker 9: a lot a lot richer, I would imagine, so you

1970
01:29:19,040 --> 01:29:21,600
Speaker 9: might not want to risk doing anything beyond the franchise

1971
01:29:21,640 --> 01:29:24,400
Speaker 9: tag if you could, of course, get a long term

1972
01:29:24,439 --> 01:29:25,160
Speaker 9: deal going.

1973
01:29:25,680 --> 01:29:28,360
Speaker 4: Jake, if you had to choose one player to tag,

1974
01:29:28,400 --> 01:29:30,519
Speaker 4: who would it be Danie Jones or Alec Pierce?

1975
01:29:32,040 --> 01:29:36,800
Speaker 9: Ooh, now is that with the caveat that, like you

1976
01:29:36,840 --> 01:29:39,640
Speaker 9: can only pick one to have or one to tag.

1977
01:29:39,960 --> 01:29:42,360
Speaker 4: One to tag with the risk of potentially losing the

1978
01:29:42,400 --> 01:29:43,519
Speaker 4: other one in free agency.

1979
01:29:44,400 --> 01:29:50,839
Speaker 9: Oh God, that's tough, man. I guess for that purpose

1980
01:29:51,000 --> 01:29:54,960
Speaker 9: you tag Pierce because I think his market is just

1981
01:29:55,000 --> 01:29:59,840
Speaker 9: a bit more robust. You probably find yourself being even

1982
01:30:00,080 --> 01:30:03,080
Speaker 9: able to fall into dumb luck working something out with

1983
01:30:03,479 --> 01:30:08,120
Speaker 9: Daniel Jones, but most of the teams around the league

1984
01:30:08,120 --> 01:30:10,360
Speaker 9: should have some sort of interest in Alec Pierce, at

1985
01:30:10,400 --> 01:30:11,720
Speaker 9: least the ones that could afford him.

1986
01:30:12,200 --> 01:30:15,439
Speaker 2: And Jake Arthur, he was a busy, busy human at

1987
01:30:15,520 --> 01:30:18,720
Speaker 2: the Combine locked on Coltsim and Zach Kicks always a

1988
01:30:18,760 --> 01:30:21,040
Speaker 2: great listen there, and those two were posted up and

1989
01:30:21,080 --> 01:30:25,120
Speaker 2: they were just absolutely just digging for info throughout the

1990
01:30:25,120 --> 01:30:28,439
Speaker 2: Combine week. Jake, let's keep it in terms of the

1991
01:30:28,560 --> 01:30:32,040
Speaker 2: draft to this, maybe a position or two that you'd

1992
01:30:32,080 --> 01:30:34,640
Speaker 2: call very deep in the twenty twenty sixth class, and

1993
01:30:34,720 --> 01:30:37,080
Speaker 2: a position or two that you would called not very

1994
01:30:37,120 --> 01:30:39,200
Speaker 2: deep in the twenty twenty six draft class.

1995
01:30:40,520 --> 01:30:43,519
Speaker 9: I think linebacker is as good as I've seen it

1996
01:30:43,560 --> 01:30:45,280
Speaker 9: in a while, which lines up really well with the

1997
01:30:45,280 --> 01:30:49,120
Speaker 9: Colts of course needing linebacker help, especially there you know

1998
01:30:49,160 --> 01:30:52,639
Speaker 9: when they're going to start picking around forty seven. I

1999
01:30:52,720 --> 01:30:57,240
Speaker 9: really like the linebackers. They're the defensive tackles. Also, we

2000
01:30:57,320 --> 01:30:59,360
Speaker 9: know they kind of have to start thinking of life

2001
01:30:59,439 --> 01:31:03,640
Speaker 9: after Buck and Grover. I really wish I liked the

2002
01:31:03,800 --> 01:31:07,120
Speaker 9: edge rush class in that Day two range more than

2003
01:31:07,160 --> 01:31:10,280
Speaker 9: I do, because you know they probably need to be active.

2004
01:31:10,280 --> 01:31:14,120
Speaker 9: They're in free agency and the draft. But I just don't.

2005
01:31:14,800 --> 01:31:17,120
Speaker 9: I just can't find myself falling in love with those

2006
01:31:17,160 --> 01:31:22,879
Speaker 9: guys that are like top fifty, top seventy five. You know, Safety,

2007
01:31:23,120 --> 01:31:25,160
Speaker 9: I would say Safety is another really good one that

2008
01:31:25,240 --> 01:31:28,280
Speaker 9: kind of matches up with the Colts if you perhaps

2009
01:31:28,360 --> 01:31:31,960
Speaker 9: lose Net Cross, I say, I know you guys had

2010
01:31:31,960 --> 01:31:33,960
Speaker 9: a really good combo with with Chris the other day

2011
01:31:34,000 --> 01:31:36,920
Speaker 9: that was kind of revealing. But even Rodney Thomas, I mean,

2012
01:31:36,960 --> 01:31:39,360
Speaker 9: he played one hundred and fifty snaps last year. So

2013
01:31:40,160 --> 01:31:42,960
Speaker 9: you find a way to replace Cross and or Thomas

2014
01:31:42,960 --> 01:31:43,720
Speaker 9: in this draft too.

2015
01:31:44,760 --> 01:31:48,599
Speaker 4: Again, we're talking to Jake Arthur locked on Colts and

2016
01:31:48,640 --> 01:31:50,679
Speaker 4: pretty much all things Colds. I feel like I see

2017
01:31:50,760 --> 01:31:56,320
Speaker 4: Jake upload more videos then I actually see him taking

2018
01:31:56,360 --> 01:31:58,160
Speaker 4: I'm like, what when did you do this? How did

2019
01:31:58,160 --> 01:32:00,160
Speaker 4: you you know? He's got all the gear? And so

2020
01:32:00,400 --> 01:32:02,519
Speaker 4: you do a great job at that, brother, and trust me,

2021
01:32:02,600 --> 01:32:04,160
Speaker 4: I am locked in. I will say I'll give some

2022
01:32:04,160 --> 01:32:06,240
Speaker 4: credit to you and Zach Kicks for also being the

2023
01:32:06,280 --> 01:32:08,880
Speaker 4: two guys who love offensive linemen. I know there's been

2024
01:32:08,920 --> 01:32:12,160
Speaker 4: some offensive linemen, not hate, but like they don't get

2025
01:32:12,200 --> 01:32:15,320
Speaker 4: enough love. Zach Kicks loves him some offensive Lineman, so

2026
01:32:15,400 --> 01:32:17,080
Speaker 4: check out his work as well. Oh yeah, he'll have

2027
01:32:17,200 --> 01:32:20,439
Speaker 4: his Draft Guy coming as well, which I'm sure I'll

2028
01:32:20,479 --> 01:32:21,280
Speaker 4: be looking at as well.

2029
01:32:22,760 --> 01:32:23,000
Speaker 1: Jake.

2030
01:32:23,360 --> 01:32:26,400
Speaker 4: When I look at the tray request for Anthony Richardson,

2031
01:32:28,800 --> 01:32:30,439
Speaker 4: the question I want to ask you is, how did

2032
01:32:30,439 --> 01:32:31,000
Speaker 4: we get here?

2033
01:32:31,720 --> 01:32:31,800
Speaker 5: Like?

2034
01:32:31,840 --> 01:32:35,280
Speaker 4: What is your elevator's speech for random person who might

2035
01:32:35,320 --> 01:32:39,040
Speaker 4: be interested in Anthony Richardson, random team, if they're a

2036
01:32:39,120 --> 01:32:41,640
Speaker 4: random fan, if they're asking, what the heck happened here?

2037
01:32:41,680 --> 01:32:42,240
Speaker 4: What are you saying?

2038
01:32:43,360 --> 01:32:43,599
Speaker 2: Man?

2039
01:32:43,720 --> 01:32:47,120
Speaker 9: I mean, of course there's layers to it, but he

2040
01:32:47,240 --> 01:32:50,920
Speaker 9: probably got thrown out there before he was ready and then,

2041
01:32:51,520 --> 01:32:53,880
Speaker 9: which could have been manageable. It's maybe not for the

2042
01:32:53,920 --> 01:32:57,880
Speaker 9: shoulder injury. And then injuries have just kind of been

2043
01:32:57,960 --> 01:33:02,519
Speaker 9: the story. Cults haven't really been able to invest the

2044
01:33:02,560 --> 01:33:06,480
Speaker 9: time necessary to develop him because he's barely been available.

2045
01:33:07,080 --> 01:33:08,880
Speaker 9: I think he's only been around for like twenty nine

2046
01:33:08,960 --> 01:33:12,640
Speaker 9: or fifty one games, you know, so the injuries are

2047
01:33:12,640 --> 01:33:15,360
Speaker 9: a huge part. And then I mean Anthony as well,

2048
01:33:15,439 --> 01:33:17,600
Speaker 9: he's got to kind of you's got to take some

2049
01:33:17,640 --> 01:33:20,120
Speaker 9: blame for this too. I mean, you have to be

2050
01:33:20,320 --> 01:33:24,200
Speaker 9: as locked in as possible, especially if you aren't on

2051
01:33:24,240 --> 01:33:26,360
Speaker 9: the field. You have to be.

2052
01:33:27,560 --> 01:33:28,240
Speaker 2: I mean it's.

2053
01:33:28,920 --> 01:33:31,120
Speaker 9: Dotting your eyes and crossing your teeth around the clock.

2054
01:33:31,240 --> 01:33:34,759
Speaker 9: So the Colts kind of messed up, I would imagine

2055
01:33:34,800 --> 01:33:39,120
Speaker 9: with throwing him out early. He's been injured and he's

2056
01:33:39,439 --> 01:33:42,479
Speaker 9: admitted he's not been as prepared as he could be

2057
01:33:42,520 --> 01:33:43,320
Speaker 9: at times as well.

2058
01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:47,800
Speaker 1: So it's it's got layers talking to Jake, Arthur Sports

2059
01:33:47,840 --> 01:33:50,920
Speaker 1: illustrated about the Colts right now. Anything else that kind

2060
01:33:50,960 --> 01:33:55,040
Speaker 1: of you heard, saw felt at the combine this past

2061
01:33:55,080 --> 01:33:58,040
Speaker 1: week that you think is interesting in as not being reported.

2062
01:33:59,800 --> 01:34:04,479
Speaker 9: Think as far as cold stuff goes, I think Chris

2063
01:34:04,520 --> 01:34:08,360
Speaker 9: Boward was pretty revealing with with Michael Pittman junior stuff

2064
01:34:08,400 --> 01:34:13,559
Speaker 9: like anxiary, Franklin as well, basically all all but admitting

2065
01:34:13,600 --> 01:34:15,400
Speaker 9: they're probably going to have to figure stuff out with

2066
01:34:15,439 --> 01:34:19,320
Speaker 9: those contracts. If you're reading between the lines, of course, uh,

2067
01:34:19,400 --> 01:34:22,479
Speaker 9: because that front seven, I mean that's the that's the

2068
01:34:22,520 --> 01:34:24,960
Speaker 9: flavor of the week. They know that's got to improve

2069
01:34:25,000 --> 01:34:26,439
Speaker 9: and they're not hiding from that at all.

2070
01:34:27,160 --> 01:34:27,360
Speaker 1: Jake.

2071
01:34:27,479 --> 01:34:31,799
Speaker 4: One more, when it comes to the roster construction going forward,

2072
01:34:32,160 --> 01:34:33,960
Speaker 4: I know we spent a lot of time talking about

2073
01:34:33,960 --> 01:34:36,360
Speaker 4: Alec Peers and retaining him, and that would ideally be

2074
01:34:36,439 --> 01:34:41,840
Speaker 4: the goal. But if Michael Pittman junior, who Chris did say, Hey,

2075
01:34:41,880 --> 01:34:44,519
Speaker 4: it's hypothetical that he won't be here next year. But

2076
01:34:44,600 --> 01:34:49,400
Speaker 4: if he is not, where would receiver become or how

2077
01:34:49,400 --> 01:34:51,920
Speaker 4: would receiver shift in your mind from being perhaps a

2078
01:34:52,000 --> 01:34:54,280
Speaker 4: need to a bigger need if he's not here.

2079
01:34:56,200 --> 01:35:00,439
Speaker 9: Yeah, I would really hate to invest like something rich,

2080
01:35:00,600 --> 01:35:03,479
Speaker 9: like very much free agent money or an early draft

2081
01:35:03,479 --> 01:35:05,400
Speaker 9: pick on receiver. But you would kind of have to

2082
01:35:06,520 --> 01:35:09,200
Speaker 9: because you know, Josh Downs is coming up on the

2083
01:35:09,320 --> 01:35:12,479
Speaker 9: near the end of his contract, and you know, it

2084
01:35:12,479 --> 01:35:16,600
Speaker 9: would just be Pierce, who is getting better as a

2085
01:35:16,640 --> 01:35:20,519
Speaker 9: receiver all the time, but he's not that complete guy.

2086
01:35:20,560 --> 01:35:23,680
Speaker 9: He's not really the possession guy you're looking for. So

2087
01:35:24,320 --> 01:35:27,559
Speaker 9: I do think you would have to spend valuable money

2088
01:35:27,680 --> 01:35:31,040
Speaker 9: or draft picks on it. You know, probably get one

2089
01:35:31,080 --> 01:35:34,879
Speaker 9: within the first three or four rounds. And I wouldn't

2090
01:35:34,960 --> 01:35:37,200
Speaker 9: probably spend more than like fifteen million a year on

2091
01:35:37,240 --> 01:35:40,040
Speaker 9: a receiver on the free agent market. I think those

2092
01:35:40,040 --> 01:35:42,960
Speaker 9: guys get kind of expensive. But a guy like Romeo

2093
01:35:43,040 --> 01:35:45,639
Speaker 9: Dobbs from the Packers probably falls in around you know,

2094
01:35:46,160 --> 01:35:48,920
Speaker 9: twelve to fifteen million a year. That'd probably be about

2095
01:35:49,880 --> 01:35:51,360
Speaker 9: about as much as I would stretch it.

2096
01:35:51,840 --> 01:35:54,040
Speaker 2: And Jack Arthur's with us. Here is a busy man

2097
01:35:54,160 --> 01:35:56,800
Speaker 2: down at the combine. He is on the cold speed

2098
01:35:56,800 --> 01:35:58,840
Speaker 2: and as we've said, locked on colts where you can

2099
01:35:58,880 --> 01:36:04,080
Speaker 2: find his work from a listening standpoint. Jake, last one,

2100
01:36:04,320 --> 01:36:06,920
Speaker 2: let's go to linebacker. You mentioned the Chris ballad combo.

2101
01:36:06,960 --> 01:36:09,200
Speaker 2: We did ask about Zire Franklin. So I'll give you

2102
01:36:09,240 --> 01:36:12,880
Speaker 2: a little either neither both. Jermaine Pratt free agent, Zire

2103
01:36:12,880 --> 01:36:16,960
Speaker 2: Franklin still under contract, those two being a cult in

2104
01:36:17,080 --> 01:36:19,720
Speaker 2: twenty twenty six, either neither both.

2105
01:36:21,080 --> 01:36:21,280
Speaker 1: Man.

2106
01:36:21,320 --> 01:36:24,280
Speaker 9: I would say neither to be honest with you, because

2107
01:36:24,280 --> 01:36:26,759
Speaker 9: I already kind of was of the thinking that Pratt

2108
01:36:26,760 --> 01:36:29,759
Speaker 9: wouldn't be here, like that was a nice one year rental,

2109
01:36:30,160 --> 01:36:33,439
Speaker 9: you know, next year or last year. But they've got

2110
01:36:33,479 --> 01:36:36,679
Speaker 9: to get younger, they've got to get faster, and they'd

2111
01:36:36,720 --> 01:36:38,680
Speaker 9: even get cheaper if they used a draft pick. So

2112
01:36:39,120 --> 01:36:41,120
Speaker 9: I already kind of thought Pratt would not be part

2113
01:36:41,160 --> 01:36:46,360
Speaker 9: of it. But then Chris opening that conversation for Ziere,

2114
01:36:47,680 --> 01:36:49,679
Speaker 9: I mean, he's got two years left on his deal.

2115
01:36:50,240 --> 01:36:52,360
Speaker 9: That's all Chris would have had to say, you know,

2116
01:36:52,920 --> 01:36:55,719
Speaker 9: he's got two years left and we'll see what happens,

2117
01:36:55,760 --> 01:36:59,560
Speaker 9: but he very much made it seem like they're discussing

2118
01:36:59,560 --> 01:37:00,000
Speaker 9: that in terms.

2119
01:37:01,400 --> 01:37:01,639
Speaker 7: Jake.

2120
01:37:01,640 --> 01:37:03,200
Speaker 1: Always good to have you on. Thanks so much for

2121
01:37:03,240 --> 01:37:05,240
Speaker 1: doing it this morning. Good luck with the kids this morning.

2122
01:37:05,240 --> 01:37:07,200
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you soon. Absolutely.

2123
01:37:07,200 --> 01:37:07,439
Speaker 2: Thanks.

2124
01:37:07,439 --> 01:37:10,120
Speaker 1: So there he is, Jake Arthur, like everybody else, trying

2125
01:37:10,120 --> 01:37:12,640
Speaker 1: to figure out what's going on with delayed starts all

2126
01:37:12,680 --> 01:37:14,200
Speaker 1: over the area this morning. James Boyd.

2127
01:37:14,479 --> 01:37:17,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it looks to be a little bit better,

2128
01:37:17,360 --> 01:37:20,840
Speaker 4: at least looking out the window here at Radio one,

2129
01:37:21,040 --> 01:37:23,920
Speaker 4: so perhaps the streets are cleaner. But waking up this morning,

2130
01:37:23,960 --> 01:37:26,000
Speaker 4: it certainly was understandable if you didn't get to where

2131
01:37:26,000 --> 01:37:28,320
Speaker 4: you're supposed to be at the same exact time as

2132
01:37:28,360 --> 01:37:29,000
Speaker 4: you normally would.

2133
01:37:29,240 --> 01:37:31,439
Speaker 6: I got a five word text from Ashley this morning.

2134
01:37:31,920 --> 01:37:35,920
Speaker 6: I hate two hour delays now.

2135
01:37:35,960 --> 01:37:39,160
Speaker 2: Mark Jane's called it the greatest invention and teacher history.

2136
01:37:39,520 --> 01:37:41,479
Speaker 2: I'm paraphrasing a little bit here, but I believe those

2137
01:37:41,479 --> 01:37:42,040
Speaker 2: are his words.

2138
01:37:42,040 --> 01:37:44,559
Speaker 1: Earlier says he's never been more happy to get bothered

2139
01:37:44,560 --> 01:37:46,200
Speaker 1: and awakened at five point thirty with a.

2140
01:37:46,160 --> 01:37:49,080
Speaker 2: Text, Mark, I I kind of echo what you're saying,

2141
01:37:49,160 --> 01:37:51,400
Speaker 2: oh greatest thing. When you were probably a kid. But

2142
01:37:51,600 --> 01:37:55,400
Speaker 2: now it's like what, yeah, now supposed to you mean

2143
01:37:55,439 --> 01:37:58,120
Speaker 2: not have to rearrange like all my morning here, especially

2144
01:37:58,160 --> 01:38:00,000
Speaker 2: like I guess I didn't go to bed last night.

2145
01:38:00,600 --> 01:38:02,240
Speaker 2: I was gonna wake up to this. I had to

2146
01:38:02,280 --> 01:38:02,960
Speaker 2: do a double take.

2147
01:38:03,200 --> 01:38:03,360
Speaker 7: No.

2148
01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:05,840
Speaker 6: I looked outside this morning and I like, oh, it's

2149
01:38:05,840 --> 01:38:07,839
Speaker 6: a dusting, and like, oh, no, that's more than a dusting.

2150
01:38:08,640 --> 01:38:11,040
Speaker 1: Yeah. Dog, I was letting the dog out this morning,

2151
01:38:11,040 --> 01:38:12,680
Speaker 1: first thing, and he took one step out there, and

2152
01:38:12,680 --> 01:38:15,280
Speaker 1: then you looked back and be like, what you really

2153
01:38:15,320 --> 01:38:16,519
Speaker 1: want me to go out in this thing right now?

2154
01:38:16,600 --> 01:38:18,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, especially in the month of March. One thing to

2155
01:38:18,800 --> 01:38:21,240
Speaker 2: note you guys brought up you know deadline super Action again.

2156
01:38:21,280 --> 01:38:24,960
Speaker 2: Tuesday at four o'clock is the franchise tag deadline. So

2157
01:38:25,040 --> 01:38:28,679
Speaker 2: by tomorrow at four we will know whether they've used

2158
01:38:28,680 --> 01:38:31,800
Speaker 2: it and if they don't use it on Alec Pierce

2159
01:38:31,880 --> 01:38:33,720
Speaker 2: or Dan Jones. And a reminder, you can only use

2160
01:38:33,760 --> 01:38:37,120
Speaker 2: one tag franchise transition. You only use one of them.

2161
01:38:37,320 --> 01:38:41,400
Speaker 2: Then that means you've got six days to get something done.

2162
01:38:41,760 --> 01:38:43,840
Speaker 2: Mondays when the legal tampering period begins. That would be

2163
01:38:43,880 --> 01:38:47,720
Speaker 2: a week from Monday, James. If I remember correctly. They

2164
01:38:47,800 --> 01:38:50,479
Speaker 2: tagged Michael Pittman in the final hour of the franchise

2165
01:38:50,520 --> 01:38:53,920
Speaker 2: tag window, and it was almost a foe gone conclusion

2166
01:38:53,920 --> 01:38:56,360
Speaker 2: Michael Pittman JUNR was going to stay, and yet they

2167
01:38:56,360 --> 01:38:58,519
Speaker 2: still Chris Bout told the story, He's like coming back

2168
01:38:58,520 --> 01:39:03,599
Speaker 2: from Africa and hunting, and basically you didn't get pen

2169
01:39:03,720 --> 01:39:06,720
Speaker 2: to paper with Pittman. So word of mouth says his

2170
01:39:06,760 --> 01:39:09,400
Speaker 2: team and his camp say, hey, just trust us. But

2171
01:39:09,760 --> 01:39:11,400
Speaker 2: Ballard is not going to take the risk, and so

2172
01:39:11,479 --> 01:39:13,880
Speaker 2: he ends up tagging him in the final hour. So

2173
01:39:15,000 --> 01:39:18,280
Speaker 2: the Colts have never been a big like get something

2174
01:39:18,479 --> 01:39:22,080
Speaker 2: done early team in college.

2175
01:39:22,320 --> 01:39:24,160
Speaker 4: You know, it gets done when it's supposed to get done.

2176
01:39:24,320 --> 01:39:27,160
Speaker 4: But to your point about Michael Pittman JUNR. Which is

2177
01:39:27,160 --> 01:39:30,440
Speaker 4: the only time that Chris Ballard has used a franchise

2178
01:39:30,479 --> 01:39:34,439
Speaker 4: tag during his tenure, there was only one tag candidate

2179
01:39:34,479 --> 01:39:37,240
Speaker 4: that year, so you only have to prepare for one

2180
01:39:37,240 --> 01:39:41,120
Speaker 4: scenario this year a little more nuanced, I would say.

2181
01:39:41,000 --> 01:39:42,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's a great point. I mean, you

2182
01:39:42,760 --> 01:39:46,000
Speaker 2: have two tag you have two tag candidates, and I

2183
01:39:46,080 --> 01:39:49,519
Speaker 2: think you have two worthy debates, to be honest with you,

2184
01:39:49,560 --> 01:39:51,479
Speaker 2: and two different debates. I think we've heard it through

2185
01:39:51,479 --> 01:39:53,559
Speaker 2: the last couple hours of the show. I think fans

2186
01:39:53,560 --> 01:39:56,439
Speaker 2: are clearly a bit split on that. Jones plays a

2187
01:39:56,439 --> 01:39:58,519
Speaker 2: more important position, but he's got the injury history and

2188
01:39:58,560 --> 01:40:01,400
Speaker 2: he's coming off the torn achilles. Pierce is the better player,

2189
01:40:01,439 --> 01:40:05,880
Speaker 2: but he plays a position that in today's NFL there's

2190
01:40:05,880 --> 01:40:08,640
Speaker 2: more wide receivers available. Again, I don't think there's I

2191
01:40:08,680 --> 01:40:10,519
Speaker 2: think it's a discredit to Alec Pierce to acting like

2192
01:40:10,520 --> 01:40:13,240
Speaker 2: you can just easily replace him, considering his home run

2193
01:40:13,280 --> 01:40:17,240
Speaker 2: ability as such a coveted and unique trade. But is

2194
01:40:17,280 --> 01:40:20,000
Speaker 2: it easier to find a wide out or a quarterback? Well, yeah,

2195
01:40:20,080 --> 01:40:21,160
Speaker 2: we know the answer to that.

2196
01:40:21,160 --> 01:40:22,479
Speaker 6: So gun to heead. What do you guys think they

2197
01:40:22,560 --> 01:40:27,160
Speaker 6: do tomorrow? Oh one there, Yeah, make a decision, Marcus,

2198
01:40:27,240 --> 01:40:28,720
Speaker 6: what do we do? What are we talking about on

2199
01:40:28,720 --> 01:40:29,360
Speaker 6: Wednesday morning?

2200
01:40:29,640 --> 01:40:33,280
Speaker 2: I have long said I think the easiest pathway to

2201
01:40:33,360 --> 01:40:37,080
Speaker 2: the offseason you want to achieve is Jones on some

2202
01:40:37,120 --> 01:40:39,639
Speaker 2: sort of two to three year deal where the guarantees

2203
01:40:39,640 --> 01:40:41,320
Speaker 2: are all in the first two years. I don't want

2204
01:40:41,320 --> 01:40:45,760
Speaker 2: anything past year two, and then you tag Pierce with

2205
01:40:45,840 --> 01:40:47,920
Speaker 2: the hope that you obviously get something done. And remember,

2206
01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:50,559
Speaker 2: if you tag him, you've got months to get it done,

2207
01:40:50,600 --> 01:40:53,000
Speaker 2: like it's like mid July when you get a long

2208
01:40:53,080 --> 01:40:55,880
Speaker 2: term deal done. So that's where I've that's where I'll

2209
01:40:55,880 --> 01:40:57,280
Speaker 2: continue to sit until tomorrow.

2210
01:40:57,320 --> 01:41:00,240
Speaker 1: I like that too. What happens, though, James, If Daniel

2211
01:41:00,280 --> 01:41:02,280
Speaker 1: Jones and his camp are like no were we think

2212
01:41:02,320 --> 01:41:04,360
Speaker 1: we can get a three year deal out of somebody,

2213
01:41:04,439 --> 01:41:05,679
Speaker 1: or a four year deal, even.

2214
01:41:05,439 --> 01:41:07,920
Speaker 4: For Devil's Advocate purposes, I'll just say I'll tag Jones

2215
01:41:08,120 --> 01:41:12,439
Speaker 4: because in my mind, I'm thinking I have no other plan.

2216
01:41:12,880 --> 01:41:15,120
Speaker 4: I need to make sure we have the quarterback because

2217
01:41:15,120 --> 01:41:17,920
Speaker 4: in this league that is what matters. And I get it.

2218
01:41:17,920 --> 01:41:20,280
Speaker 4: He's coming off the Achilles and he's, you know, got

2219
01:41:20,280 --> 01:41:23,519
Speaker 4: an injury history. But I don't even want to run

2220
01:41:23,560 --> 01:41:27,280
Speaker 4: the risk of potentially losing this guy in free agency

2221
01:41:27,520 --> 01:41:30,439
Speaker 4: and Alec Brother, we'll just have to pay the price.

2222
01:41:30,520 --> 01:41:34,160
Speaker 4: And if that means Michael Pittman Junior, you're not here anymore.

2223
01:41:34,280 --> 01:41:36,320
Speaker 4: If that means that you're Franklin, we will find a way.

2224
01:41:36,360 --> 01:41:40,000
Speaker 4: We will restructure Quentin Nelson. There's avenues, but I want

2225
01:41:40,040 --> 01:41:41,080
Speaker 4: to make sure I got my quarterback.

2226
01:41:41,160 --> 01:41:42,200
Speaker 1: I cannot go ahead.

2227
01:41:42,240 --> 01:41:44,639
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, sure the Colts call Daniel Jones's bluff.

2228
01:41:45,240 --> 01:41:47,439
Speaker 1: I can't imagine anybody's in a line that giving me.

2229
01:41:47,720 --> 01:41:52,920
Speaker 2: Probably I could see a team potentially being desperate enough

2230
01:41:52,920 --> 01:41:56,439
Speaker 2: to say, Daniel Jones, we'll offer more than the Colts.

2231
01:41:57,320 --> 01:41:59,559
Speaker 2: But if you want to, and I hate to use

2232
01:41:59,600 --> 01:42:01,400
Speaker 2: the gun to he analogy, but Mark already went there

2233
01:42:01,400 --> 01:42:03,360
Speaker 2: on a Monday. If you want to use that for

2234
01:42:03,439 --> 01:42:07,679
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones deep down? Where did he resurrect his NFL career?

2235
01:42:07,960 --> 01:42:08,200
Speaker 4: Yeah?

2236
01:42:08,240 --> 01:42:10,519
Speaker 2: Where did he? You know? Listener Dan chimed in earlier

2237
01:42:10,560 --> 01:42:13,200
Speaker 2: said where did he save his NFL career? I mean

2238
01:42:13,200 --> 01:42:19,640
Speaker 2: with Shane Steichen and the Colts, Daniel Jones is underneath

2239
01:42:19,640 --> 01:42:24,040
Speaker 2: the snow out here like so. And I get that's

2240
01:42:24,080 --> 01:42:26,519
Speaker 2: a very delicate balance when you think you can call

2241
01:42:26,680 --> 01:42:30,439
Speaker 2: players bluff in the league. Boy, But is Daniel Jones

2242
01:42:30,479 --> 01:42:31,519
Speaker 2: going to look at his agent at the end of

2243
01:42:31,520 --> 01:42:34,599
Speaker 2: the day and be like, guys, I get it, it's

2244
01:42:34,720 --> 01:42:38,839
Speaker 2: three million more in Minnesota. But look where I finally

2245
01:42:38,920 --> 01:42:43,240
Speaker 2: found a semblance of success in the NFL. I want

2246
01:42:43,280 --> 01:42:47,040
Speaker 2: to stay there. All the offensive weapons seemingly are coming

2247
01:42:47,080 --> 01:42:48,760
Speaker 2: back for him. I mean, we'll have to see about Pierce.

2248
01:42:48,880 --> 01:42:51,000
Speaker 2: The offensive line looks to be close to fully intact.

2249
01:42:51,120 --> 01:42:54,200
Speaker 2: Tyler Warren, Jonathan Taylor. You know, most of those pass catchers,

2250
01:42:54,200 --> 01:42:59,960
Speaker 2: like I get that calling the player's bluff is, you know,

2251
01:43:00,240 --> 01:43:04,599
Speaker 2: sticking your hand near the old stove. But boy, I

2252
01:43:04,760 --> 01:43:07,080
Speaker 2: just I almost feel like the culture in a position

2253
01:43:07,120 --> 01:43:07,920
Speaker 2: where they could do that.

2254
01:43:08,439 --> 01:43:10,800
Speaker 1: Oh to be in a situation where I have the

2255
01:43:10,880 --> 01:43:14,799
Speaker 1: option to stay somewhere, I like, for three million dollars less,

2256
01:43:16,200 --> 01:43:19,160
Speaker 1: that's not a bad place to be. James Boyd, That's well,

2257
01:43:19,240 --> 01:43:19,680
Speaker 1: I think he.

2258
01:43:19,640 --> 01:43:20,919
Speaker 4: Still has a lot of leverage.

2259
01:43:20,960 --> 01:43:21,160
Speaker 1: Man.

2260
01:43:22,600 --> 01:43:25,400
Speaker 4: In my heart of hearts, I would probably try to

2261
01:43:25,439 --> 01:43:28,720
Speaker 4: call his bluff because I'm thinking, Hey, I'm trying to

2262
01:43:28,720 --> 01:43:30,559
Speaker 4: make sure I have the best version of my team

2263
01:43:30,600 --> 01:43:33,479
Speaker 4: moving forward. But I'm just saying it would not surprise

2264
01:43:33,600 --> 01:43:35,800
Speaker 4: me if the Colts were just like, we don't want

2265
01:43:35,840 --> 01:43:37,720
Speaker 4: to run that risk. We have to make sure we

2266
01:43:37,800 --> 01:43:38,680
Speaker 4: have the quarterback.

2267
01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:42,120
Speaker 1: All right, Mark, let's check it down.

2268
01:43:44,760 --> 01:43:47,840

Speaker 1: Starry with the Pacers playback presented by CNJ Water, the

2274

Speaker 1: official water treatment partner of the Indiana Pacers. Cnjwater dot Com.

2275
01:44:09,520 --> 01:44:12,320
Speaker 1: Good news and bad news all at the same time, James,

2276
01:44:12,600 --> 01:44:14,759
Speaker 1: the good news and the bad news. The Pacers lost

2277
01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:17,880
Speaker 1: to the Memphis Grizzlies one twenty five, one oh six.

2278
01:44:17,920 --> 01:44:20,439
Speaker 1: Bad news they lost. Good news is they keep losing

2279
01:44:20,479 --> 01:44:23,360
Speaker 1: and keep their spot right now in that top four

2280
01:44:23,400 --> 01:44:24,120
Speaker 1: lottery pick.

2281
01:44:24,439 --> 01:44:26,280
Speaker 4: I think that's good news on both sides, Jeff.

2282
01:44:26,560 --> 01:44:28,200
Speaker 1: We'll see if they continue to do that throughout the

2283
01:44:28,240 --> 01:44:30,639
Speaker 1: rest of the season. They'll start a four game road

2284
01:44:30,640 --> 01:44:34,080
Speaker 1: trip on Wednesday out West with the Clippers up first.

2285
01:44:35,200 --> 01:44:36,880
Speaker 1: What are you looking for game to game at this

2286
01:44:36,960 --> 01:44:38,720
Speaker 1: point in time, Kevin Bone.

2287
01:44:39,320 --> 01:44:41,920
Speaker 2: Well, Wednesday, I care about Ben mcmatherin seeing his whole team.

2288
01:44:41,960 --> 01:44:44,679
Speaker 2: I think that's what you circle there on the West

2289
01:44:44,680 --> 01:44:47,120
Speaker 2: Coast trip, you know, James, when we chatted with Rick

2290
01:44:47,120 --> 01:44:49,439
Speaker 2: Carlisle last week of Viatza Zubats, what do you say,

2291
01:44:49,439 --> 01:44:52,840
Speaker 2: a couple weeks away likely? So yeah, I don't think

2292
01:44:52,880 --> 01:44:55,360
Speaker 2: on this West Coast trip. He also said Tyres Haliburtn

2293
01:44:55,400 --> 01:44:57,120
Speaker 2: would be away from the team. He thought through the

2294
01:44:57,160 --> 01:44:59,200
Speaker 2: West Coast trip, So it almost seems like we kind

2295
01:44:59,240 --> 01:45:02,280
Speaker 2: of got to get to mid arch and then maybe

2296
01:45:02,840 --> 01:45:07,080
Speaker 2: you know, you see some semblance of a Siakam Zubot's,

2297
01:45:07,640 --> 01:45:11,040
Speaker 2: Nie Smith Nemhard. I don't know, some combination of that

2298
01:45:11,400 --> 01:45:13,880
Speaker 2: for a few games, and you know, I'll continue to

2299
01:45:13,920 --> 01:45:16,040
Speaker 2: what I said, what I said last week, and it's

2300
01:45:16,080 --> 01:45:18,240
Speaker 2: only I think strengthened. With the Pacers now losing six

2301
01:45:18,320 --> 01:45:20,240
Speaker 2: in a row, the Pacers are still in a position

2302
01:45:20,320 --> 01:45:22,920
Speaker 2: where they can sprinkle in a few wins and still

2303
01:45:22,920 --> 01:45:25,559
Speaker 2: be okay, like they are not on this like, oh

2304
01:45:25,560 --> 01:45:27,800
Speaker 2: my gosh, if you win one game, your odds are

2305
01:45:27,840 --> 01:45:30,240
Speaker 2: dropping ten percent. No no, no, no, no. It's the top

2306
01:45:30,280 --> 01:45:32,840
Speaker 2: three worst teams all have the same odds there for

2307
01:45:32,880 --> 01:45:34,400
Speaker 2: a top four pick of the number one pick, and

2308
01:45:34,439 --> 01:45:36,400
Speaker 2: the Pacers continue to lose, so they continue to be

2309
01:45:36,760 --> 01:45:37,439
Speaker 2: in that position.

2310

Speaker 4: Oh?

01:45:45,320 --> 01:45:47,800

01:45:47,880 --> 01:45:49,479
Speaker 1: number one every time this comes up.

2315
01:45:49,560 --> 01:45:53,040
Speaker 2: So you're taking Darren Peterson, that's the question.

2316
01:45:54,040 --> 01:45:56,920
Speaker 6: Look you what are you doing? Jeff I jam ricord I.

2317
01:45:56,880 --> 01:45:58,960
Speaker 1: Can't wait to see what he does during the NCAA

2318
01:45:59,040 --> 01:46:01,519
Speaker 1: tournament for Kansas. Is he gonna play?

2319
01:46:01,560 --> 01:46:01,880
Speaker 4: Answer?

2320
01:46:01,920 --> 01:46:04,680

2321
01:46:04,680 --> 01:46:05,080
Speaker 1: of out.

Speaker 4: Jda Banns? Who's number two?

2326
01:46:12,120 --> 01:46:15,200
Speaker 1: Who are you picking right now? Knowing what I know,

2327
01:46:15,280 --> 01:46:16,839
Speaker 1: the information I have, I'm going boozer?

2328
01:46:17,400 --> 01:46:19,639
Speaker 4: All right? We got an answer, baby, I don't. I'm

2329
01:46:19,640 --> 01:46:20,240
Speaker 4: not mad at it.

2330
01:46:20,320 --> 01:46:22,639
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, that's where we're at right now. College

2331
01:46:22,680 --> 01:46:24,719
Speaker 1: basketball yesterday not a good day for the home folks.

2332
01:46:24,760 --> 01:46:27,519
Speaker 1: So iiO State wins over Purdue eighty two seventy four.

2333
01:46:27,760 --> 01:46:31,559
Speaker 1: Caleb's happy about that somewhere out there, probably Zuperzohio State guy.

2334
01:46:32,439 --> 01:46:33,720
Speaker 1: But man John Mobley.

2335
01:46:33,439 --> 01:46:35,280
Speaker 4: Junior scored twenty one basketball fan.

2336
01:46:35,560 --> 01:46:38,000
Speaker 1: Purdue really struggling right now though, and Matt Painter was

2337
01:46:38,040 --> 01:46:39,960
Speaker 1: not happy afterwards, or hell, we'll hear some of his

2338
01:46:40,000 --> 01:46:41,920
Speaker 1: comments coming up in a few minutes here. Braden Smith

2339
01:46:41,960 --> 01:46:45,120
Speaker 1: did have twenty points, Fletcher Lawyer fifteen, Trey Coffin Wren

2340
01:46:45,240 --> 01:46:48,839
Speaker 1: had nineteen. They'll play again at Northwestern on Friday. Michigan

2341
01:46:48,880 --> 01:46:52,479
Speaker 1: State over Indiana seventy seven sixty four. More shocking that

2342
01:46:53,479 --> 01:46:55,639
Speaker 1: Indiana lost that game at home, or that they never

2343
01:46:55,680 --> 01:46:57,840
Speaker 1: even had to lead Kevin Bowen in that game.

2344
01:46:58,320 --> 01:47:00,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, probably the last you know, I thought that was

2345
01:47:00,880 --> 01:47:02,880
Speaker 2: an opportunity Missigon State, a little bit of a letdown

2346
01:47:02,920 --> 01:47:05,160
Speaker 2: spot Indiana, you know, is a little bit of a

2347
01:47:05,240 --> 01:47:07,759
Speaker 2: magic of Assembly Hall. But no, that did not happen

2348
01:47:07,800 --> 01:47:10,720
Speaker 2: at all. So here we are. March has arrived, and

2349
01:47:10,760 --> 01:47:14,160
Speaker 2: once again Indiana looks to be on the outside looking in.

2350
01:47:14,200 --> 01:47:16,240
Speaker 2: They're going to have to win both their games this week.

2351
01:47:16,280 --> 01:47:19,360
Speaker 2: That'll be what Northwestern I believe coming up this week,

2352
01:47:20,120 --> 01:47:23,760
Speaker 2: and then excuse me, they've got Minnesota this week and

2353
01:47:23,800 --> 01:47:27,080
Speaker 2: then this weekend Ohio State a huge bubble game. But

2354
01:47:27,120 --> 01:47:28,920
Speaker 2: then you're gonna have to do something in the Big

2355
01:47:28,960 --> 01:47:31,800
Speaker 2: Ten tournament also, of no, I mean they have I

2356
01:47:31,800 --> 01:47:33,840
Speaker 2: think they're two and eleven or two and twelve and

2357
01:47:33,960 --> 01:47:38,000
Speaker 2: quad one games this year. That is just abysmal.

2358
01:47:39,360 --> 01:47:42,639
Speaker 1: Lamar Wilkerson continues to be fantastic. He scored twenty nine

2359
01:47:42,640 --> 01:47:45,280
Speaker 1: to lead all scores last night. He just improves his

2360
01:47:45,360 --> 01:47:47,360
Speaker 1: draft stock in the NBA every game.

2361
01:47:47,240 --> 01:47:49,040
Speaker 4: Doesn't he James, Yeah, for sure.

2362
01:47:49,160 --> 01:47:52,240
Speaker 1: Man definitely looking good. Also, I want to know we've

2363
01:47:52,240 --> 01:47:54,639
Speaker 1: been talking about a lot of area teams. The women

2364
01:47:54,840 --> 01:47:58,080
Speaker 1: at Maryon are ranked number four in the country. They

2365
01:47:58,120 --> 01:48:00,880
Speaker 1: will be playing later on tonight at home. They are

2366
01:48:00,920 --> 01:48:04,000
Speaker 1: twenty eight and two, won the regular season championship, and

2367
01:48:04,080 --> 01:48:06,519
Speaker 1: the national tournament seeding is going to be based on

2368
01:48:06,600 --> 01:48:09,320
Speaker 1: regular season results. Right now, there will be a number

2369
01:48:09,360 --> 01:48:12,480
Speaker 1: one seed and their tournament begins to thirteenth and fourteenth.

2370
01:48:12,680 --> 01:48:15,120
Speaker 1: But again, they play tonight against Saint Francis for the

2371
01:48:15,240 --> 01:48:18,200
Speaker 1: Crossroads League championship. So heck of a season for the

2372
01:48:18,280 --> 01:48:21,040
Speaker 1: ladies over there at Marion. Weird season for the men,

2373
01:48:21,479 --> 01:48:23,920
Speaker 1: but the ladies doing a nice job over there. We

2374
01:48:24,160 --> 01:48:26,439
Speaker 1: also tell you the state champions for girls high school

2375
01:48:26,479 --> 01:48:30,120
Speaker 1: basketball Center Grove, Belmont Eastern, and Borden. You came away

2376
01:48:30,160 --> 01:48:33,679
Speaker 1: impressed not only by Center Groves undefeated season, by their

2377
01:48:33,720 --> 01:48:34,760
Speaker 1: best player as well.

2378
01:48:35,280 --> 01:48:38,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, Grayson gillierd Davidson commit going to follow on the

2379
01:48:38,360 --> 01:48:41,479
Speaker 4: footsteps of some guy named Steph Curry, So shout out

2380
01:48:41,520 --> 01:48:43,519
Speaker 4: to her. That was a great game, great weekend, and

2381
01:48:43,520 --> 01:48:46,519
Speaker 4: honestly a nice little breakup of what can be a

2382
01:48:46,680 --> 01:48:50,400
Speaker 4: long football filled week. With the Combine.

2383
01:48:50,040 --> 01:48:53,320
Speaker 1: Carmel boys swimming wins the state meet for the twelfth

2384
01:48:53,360 --> 01:48:56,360
Speaker 1: time in a row. The girls had won fortieth straight

2385
01:48:56,439 --> 01:48:58,559
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. I think that's pretty good,

2386
01:48:58,560 --> 01:48:58,840
Speaker 1: isn't it.

2387
01:48:58,880 --> 01:49:04,880
Speaker 4: James, Yeah, not so impressive. The girls definitely also looking at.

2388
01:49:04,800 --> 01:49:07,000
Speaker 1: Some of the reports in the Star over the weekend,

2389
01:49:07,439 --> 01:49:09,680
Speaker 1: like almost all their swimmers are committed to big time

2390
01:49:09,760 --> 01:49:11,320
Speaker 1: swimming programs too.

2391
01:49:12,040 --> 01:49:15,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, don't they have like an Olympian that's

2392
01:49:15,240 --> 01:49:15,800
Speaker 4: what they do.

2393
01:49:16,720 --> 01:49:19,800
Speaker 1: Anyway. IndyCar yesterday, the season is underway. Alex Below wins

2394
01:49:19,800 --> 01:49:23,280
Speaker 1: the Grand Prix of Saint Petersburg by twelve seconds. Try

2395
01:49:23,280 --> 01:49:26,040
Speaker 1: to put that into perspective, Kevin, twelve seconds is a

2396
01:49:26,240 --> 01:49:29,479
Speaker 1: that's a long long way in an IndyCar race.

2397
01:49:29,760 --> 01:49:32,960
Speaker 2: Yes, it is absolutely dominant. Again, it's Tiger Woods in

2398
01:49:33,000 --> 01:49:35,680
Speaker 2: two thousand. That's what Alex Blow has done to an

2399
01:49:35,680 --> 01:49:38,320
Speaker 2: IndyCar sport that has a lot of parody. Like if

2400
01:49:38,320 --> 01:49:41,520
Speaker 2: you look behind him, it's not like Penske is dominating.

2401
01:49:41,560 --> 01:49:43,599
Speaker 2: You know. Scott Dixon had issues yesterday, well, power out

2402
01:49:43,640 --> 01:49:48,120
Speaker 2: issues yesterday. Like it's incredible what he's done. Literally got

2403
01:49:48,120 --> 01:49:51,799
Speaker 2: asked after the race, are you beatable? Can you imagine

2404
01:49:51,920 --> 01:49:54,880
Speaker 2: playing an individual sport and it's your first sporting event

2405
01:49:54,920 --> 01:49:57,880
Speaker 2: of the year, and the legit question after set event

2406
01:49:58,040 --> 01:49:59,040
Speaker 2: is are you beatable?

2407
01:50:00,000 --> 01:50:02,960
Speaker 4: Do you want to know that feeling? KB just get

2408
01:50:02,960 --> 01:50:05,280
Speaker 4: Max on the little mini hoop and while he's still young,

2409
01:50:05,360 --> 01:50:06,040
Speaker 4: humble them.

2410
01:50:06,880 --> 01:50:11,719
Speaker 1: Gosh, man, dude, Kevin Bowen seventeen blocks per game.

2411
01:50:11,800 --> 01:50:14,040
Speaker 6: There you go, go out of here.

2412
01:50:14,760 --> 01:50:16,920
Speaker 2: We were playing some catch in the living room this

2413
01:50:17,040 --> 01:50:18,800
Speaker 2: weekend and I think we got a long waist to go.

2414
01:50:18,880 --> 01:50:22,519
Speaker 1: Poor Max gets knocked over. That's not a foul, let's go.

2415
01:50:22,680 --> 01:50:24,040
Speaker 2: He just wanted me to throw the ball and hit

2416
01:50:24,120 --> 01:50:26,840
Speaker 2: him in the head. I'm like, oh wow, we got

2417
01:50:26,920 --> 01:50:27,360
Speaker 2: to work on that.

2418
01:50:28,000 --> 01:50:30,639
Speaker 6: Johny Knoxville's getting old, so maybe he can be his replacement,

2419
01:50:30,720 --> 01:50:31,000
Speaker 6: could be.

2420
01:50:31,000 --> 01:50:32,760
Speaker 2: A defender in soccer. Don't they do that a lot?

2421
01:50:33,320 --> 01:50:36,000
Speaker 1: Scott McLaughlin did win the pole for the race this weekend,

2422
01:50:36,040 --> 01:50:38,920
Speaker 1: finished second in the race, actually twelve Can you imagine

2423
01:50:38,920 --> 01:50:41,200
Speaker 1: winning the pole, having the fastest car and losing by

2424
01:50:41,200 --> 01:50:42,200
Speaker 1: twelve seconds?

2425
01:50:42,479 --> 01:50:45,160
Speaker 4: I know, which is crazy. I mean, twelve seconds in

2426
01:50:45,280 --> 01:50:48,599
Speaker 4: racing is a long time. Then you cycle Jeff twelve

2427
01:50:48,600 --> 01:50:52,680
Speaker 4: seconds on any type of like, will you quantify it

2428
01:50:52,720 --> 01:50:55,400
Speaker 4: in seconds? In time? That is a very very long time.

2429
01:50:55,400 --> 01:50:58,960
Speaker 4: So cycling, running in festally, racing in a car, that's

2430
01:50:59,000 --> 01:51:01,200
Speaker 4: a you know, huge amount of time.

2431
01:51:01,160 --> 01:51:03,360
Speaker 6: Right, something like the swim trials, right, Lily King would

2432
01:51:03,360 --> 01:51:05,400
Speaker 6: just be like sitting there chilling because everyone else was

2433
01:51:05,600 --> 01:51:06,559
Speaker 6: so far behind her.

2434
01:51:08,240 --> 01:51:08,759
Speaker 2: In the field.

2435
01:51:08,800 --> 01:51:11,680
Speaker 1: Again, yeah, man, go get it all right, anything else

2436
01:51:11,680 --> 01:51:13,439
Speaker 1: you want to throw in? Notre Dame went over North

2437
01:51:13,439 --> 01:51:15,800
Speaker 1: Carolina State and College.

2438
01:51:16,439 --> 01:51:20,160
Speaker 2: Nice little mention there for you, shocking, Jeff, you went there,

2439
01:51:20,520 --> 01:51:21,280
Speaker 2: beat Will Wade.

2440
01:51:22,280 --> 01:51:23,479
Speaker 4: There you go, we did.

2441
01:51:23,520 --> 01:51:26,200
Speaker 2: We did some research like a Shrewsbury on the scooter there.

2442
01:51:26,479 --> 01:51:28,759
Speaker 2: Cole Certo was hitting threes from the new Hammond Stadium

2443
01:51:28,800 --> 01:51:33,640
Speaker 2: out there, Jayaln Harrelson, excellent, I was going nuts. It

2444
01:51:33,640 --> 01:51:35,040
Speaker 2: always don't let us get hot.

2445
01:51:35,240 --> 01:51:37,280
Speaker 1: I will say, this always makes me happy when Will

2446
01:51:37,280 --> 01:51:39,479
Speaker 1: Will Wade loses a basketball game, though.

2447
01:51:40,240 --> 01:51:42,760
Speaker 2: Him and shrewsburd a nice little chat post game, so

2448
01:51:42,800 --> 01:51:44,920
Speaker 2: I don't know, maybe he's not as hated as don't

2449
01:51:44,960 --> 01:51:46,760
Speaker 2: you love when the coach, like instead of the drive by,

2450
01:51:46,880 --> 01:51:49,360
Speaker 2: gives like a little bit more of the genuine handshake.

2451
01:51:49,520 --> 01:51:51,519
Speaker 2: And then nowadays I think you shake the hands of

2452
01:51:51,560 --> 01:51:53,439
Speaker 2: the players a little bit more intently, right because you're

2453
01:51:53,439 --> 01:51:54,160
Speaker 2: trying to recruit them.

2454
01:51:54,360 --> 01:51:55,639
Speaker 1: They might be on your team next year.

2455
01:51:56,720 --> 01:51:58,599
Speaker 2: I've always noticed that in the handshake line. The handshake

2456
01:51:58,600 --> 01:52:00,000
Speaker 2: line has grown a little bit for these coaches.

2457
01:52:00,200 --> 01:52:03,880
Speaker 1: Hey, there was one other really weird situation in college

2458
01:52:03,920 --> 01:52:06,320
Speaker 1: basketball this weekend. Did you see what happened at USC

2459
01:52:06,800 --> 01:52:11,680
Speaker 1: with Eric Musselman. Yeah, Chad Chad Baker Mazara in the

2460
01:52:11,680 --> 01:52:14,400
Speaker 1: middle of the game left the program. He left the game,

2461
01:52:14,960 --> 01:52:16,960
Speaker 1: came back, he was relegated to the bench, and not

2462
01:52:17,000 --> 01:52:18,680
Speaker 1: even the bench. They made him sit like on the

2463
01:52:18,680 --> 01:52:22,360
Speaker 1: baseline with some students, and afterwards the announcement that he's

2464
01:52:22,360 --> 01:52:23,439
Speaker 1: no longer with the program.

2465
01:52:23,720 --> 01:52:25,840
Speaker 4: Did they make him sit there or did he choose

2466
01:52:25,880 --> 01:52:26,320
Speaker 4: to sit there?

2467
01:52:26,400 --> 01:52:29,680
Speaker 1: Nobody is saying. Musclman said there wasn't any more room

2468
01:52:29,760 --> 01:52:31,320
Speaker 1: left on the bench, So that's where did it go?

2469
01:52:31,400 --> 01:52:32,960
Speaker 1: Sit your leading scorer.

2470
01:52:33,439 --> 01:52:35,320
Speaker 4: I believe he's like twenty six as well, So.

2471
01:52:35,520 --> 01:52:37,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's an Auburn transfer. He was with Auburn in

2472
01:52:37,960 --> 01:52:39,040
Speaker 1: the last couple of years.

2473
01:52:39,400 --> 01:52:41,800
Speaker 4: That was as old as me, boy, I'm cooking now

2474
01:52:42,040 --> 01:52:43,200
Speaker 4: I'm punk status, y'all.

2475
01:52:43,439 --> 01:52:46,200
Speaker 2: A couple other things, girls, girls basketball, I should say

2476
01:52:46,200 --> 01:52:49,320
Speaker 2: women's basketball Big Ten Tournament over here at Gamebridge Fieldhouse

2477
01:52:49,360 --> 01:52:52,640
Speaker 2: starting Wednesday. IU and Purdue both will play early, so

2478
01:52:52,680 --> 01:52:54,680
Speaker 2: they've got to get on a crazy run if they

2479
01:52:54,680 --> 01:52:56,680
Speaker 2: want to win that. I believe it's UCLA is the

2480
01:52:56,760 --> 01:53:00,400
Speaker 2: number one seed there and shout out to the India Night.

2481
01:53:00,600 --> 01:53:04,120
Speaker 2: Their great season continues. They beat the Supernova's yesterday from Omaha.

2482
01:53:04,360 --> 01:53:07,280
Speaker 2: Lost the first set, won the next three. They have

2483
01:53:07,280 --> 01:53:10,960
Speaker 2: a commanding lead in their league. And also a shout

2484
01:53:11,000 --> 01:53:13,280
Speaker 2: out to Hannah Hidalgo for those that have not watched

2485
01:53:13,360 --> 01:53:18,080
Speaker 2: Notre Dame women this season. An absolute theft in the backcourt.

2486
01:53:18,120 --> 01:53:22,080
Speaker 2: Great score a sister gets others involved. She has a

2487
01:53:22,120 --> 01:53:24,879
Speaker 2: special special talent for Nei l Ivy and company.

2488
01:53:24,880 --> 01:53:25,040
Speaker 5: There.

2489
01:53:25,080 --> 01:53:27,439
Speaker 2: Notre Dame upset Louisville on the road and it was

2490
01:53:27,560 --> 01:53:30,280
Speaker 2: quite the steal to seal it by Adalgo.

2491
01:53:30,640 --> 01:53:34,080
Speaker 1: Also fever center of Leah Boston is the unrivaled league's

2492
01:53:34,240 --> 01:53:36,559
Speaker 1: defensive player of the year, but she is gonna miss

2493
01:53:36,560 --> 01:53:38,639
Speaker 1: the last week of the season with what they're calling

2494
01:53:38,680 --> 01:53:41,120
Speaker 1: a lower extremity injury. James, we just hope that it

2495
01:53:41,160 --> 01:53:44,040
Speaker 1: doesn't get in the way of Temusa basketball coming up here.

2496
01:53:44,240 --> 01:53:46,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, certainly hope that she's okay for that, and then

2497
01:53:46,840 --> 01:53:48,880
Speaker 4: big picture wise, if there is a fever season that

2498
01:53:48,960 --> 01:53:51,080
Speaker 4: she's okay for that. I believe they're a season opener

2499
01:53:51,680 --> 01:53:55,240
Speaker 4: is May ninth against the Dallas Wings and page Beckers, All.

2500
01:53:55,200 --> 01:53:58,120
Speaker 1: Right, that's what's happening in the world of sports. We

2501
01:53:58,160 --> 01:54:00,960
Speaker 1: will hear from a very dissatisfied man painter coming up

2502
01:54:01,000 --> 01:54:03,200
Speaker 1: in a moment here as we get closer and closer

2503
01:54:03,240 --> 01:54:05,720
Speaker 1: to the NCAA tournament that's next at ninety three five

2504
01:54:05,760 --> 01:54:08,439
Speaker 1: and one O seven five. The fan it's like, well,

2505
01:54:08,720 --> 01:54:10,479
Speaker 1: what I see on TV. The roads are starting to

2506
01:54:10,520 --> 01:54:12,559
Speaker 1: improve a little bit. It's still pretty cold out there,

2507
01:54:12,560 --> 01:54:15,200
Speaker 1: but it's not packed snow and ice that we had

2508
01:54:15,200 --> 01:54:17,680
Speaker 1: this morning before the sun came up. So hopefully things

2509
01:54:17,680 --> 01:54:19,080
Speaker 1: are getting better for you if you're just leaving the

2510
01:54:19,080 --> 01:54:20,320
Speaker 1: house now, and I know a lot of people are

2511
01:54:20,360 --> 01:54:23,360
Speaker 1: because they have the two hour delay for most schools

2512
01:54:23,360 --> 01:54:23,880
Speaker 1: this morning.

2513
01:54:24,080 --> 01:54:26,000
Speaker 4: What do you learn after a two hour delay?

2514
01:54:26,600 --> 01:54:28,800
Speaker 1: Well, you let the roads get better, is what you learn.

2515
01:54:28,880 --> 01:54:29,519
Speaker 1: People come out and.

2516
01:54:29,880 --> 01:54:32,680
Speaker 4: Stand as a student, he's show up. The teacher says, hey,

2517
01:54:32,720 --> 01:54:37,440
Speaker 4: we're we're opening to page thirty six of your calcul book. Brother,

2518
01:54:37,520 --> 01:54:38,240
Speaker 4: I am checked out.

2519
01:54:38,440 --> 01:54:40,800
Speaker 6: No ipe, you're seeing that TV roll in like you

2520
01:54:40,840 --> 01:54:43,680
Speaker 6: did back in the nineties, exactly movie night.

2521
01:54:45,120 --> 01:54:47,400
Speaker 1: You're checked out at ten thirty as opposed to eight thirty.

2522
01:54:47,880 --> 01:54:50,640
Speaker 4: Oh yes, I'm definitely checked out by the end my

2523
01:54:50,720 --> 01:54:53,000
Speaker 4: whole day. It's all about routine with kids, right you

2524
01:54:53,000 --> 01:54:55,800
Speaker 4: want to teach them good routine could happen? Hey, man,

2525
01:54:56,240 --> 01:54:58,160
Speaker 4: I see you thrown off. I am checked out.

2526
01:54:58,600 --> 01:55:00,520
Speaker 1: You know who's not happy with the habits of his

2527
01:55:00,560 --> 01:55:02,600
Speaker 1: team right now is Matt Painter. Did you hear any

2528
01:55:02,600 --> 01:55:04,560
Speaker 1: of his postgame conference?

2529
01:55:05,080 --> 01:55:05,320
Speaker 2: Mark?

2530
01:55:06,520 --> 01:55:08,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, Jeff, you've been teasing it throughout the show.

2531
01:55:08,680 --> 01:55:10,080
Speaker 4: We played it, Mark, if you have a teed up,

2532
01:55:10,120 --> 01:55:12,920
Speaker 4: let's play that again, because this was as frustrated as

2533
01:55:12,920 --> 01:55:14,600
Speaker 4: I've heard Matt Painter be this season.

2534
01:55:14,800 --> 01:55:16,440
Speaker 3: I wish it was one guy I can fix. I

2535
01:55:16,480 --> 01:55:18,600
Speaker 3: wish it was two guys. So it's not. It's collectively

2536
01:55:18,880 --> 01:55:19,400
Speaker 3: as a team.

2537
01:55:19,400 --> 01:55:21,000
Speaker 11: It's guys that have played in one hundred and twenty

2538
01:55:21,000 --> 01:55:23,640
Speaker 11: five games, and it's a couple others that's played in

2539
01:55:23,840 --> 01:55:25,840
Speaker 11: twenty eight games. That's what we have to have. You

2540
01:55:25,840 --> 01:55:26,760
Speaker 11: can't beat yourself.

2541
01:55:28,240 --> 01:55:30,320
Speaker 1: And he went on and on too, and we'll play

2542
01:55:30,360 --> 01:55:32,360
Speaker 1: some more of in a minute. But I don't remember

2543
01:55:32,480 --> 01:55:36,800
Speaker 1: last time I saw Matt Painter that frustrated visibly after

2544
01:55:36,840 --> 01:55:37,240
Speaker 1: a game.

2545
01:55:37,440 --> 01:55:40,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I actually thought he was more upset. I didn't

2546
01:55:40,280 --> 01:55:42,240
Speaker 2: think he was too upset watching the whole thing. I

2547
01:55:42,960 --> 01:55:45,480
Speaker 2: think that clip can get a little isolated. I think

2548
01:55:45,520 --> 01:55:47,000
Speaker 2: there were you know, when had the three game losing

2549
01:55:47,040 --> 01:55:48,680
Speaker 2: strick earlier in the year. I actually thought he was

2550
01:55:48,720 --> 01:55:52,920
Speaker 2: more upset than with his team. Obviously there's some things

2551
01:55:52,920 --> 01:55:57,160
Speaker 2: that clearly are bothering him, but yeah, I didn't think

2552
01:55:57,200 --> 01:56:00,600
Speaker 2: he was, you know, flipping tables over not that well,

2553
01:56:00,640 --> 01:56:03,280
Speaker 2: he doesn't like that. But I think there were some

2554
01:56:03,360 --> 01:56:05,360
Speaker 2: other times this season where he's been more upset than

2555
01:56:05,400 --> 01:56:06,360
Speaker 2: he was yesterday.

2556
01:56:06,480 --> 01:56:08,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, he goes on and he talks about really what

2557
01:56:08,960 --> 01:56:10,680
Speaker 1: his team is not doing right now.

2558
01:56:11,960 --> 01:56:14,560
Speaker 11: No, no, no, no, we're the king at We will

2559
01:56:14,600 --> 01:56:16,840
Speaker 11: guard you in the same action and then we'll turn

2560
01:56:16,880 --> 01:56:19,200
Speaker 11: around and guard the same action after that, and we

2561
01:56:19,280 --> 01:56:19,880
Speaker 11: don't do what.

2562
01:56:19,800 --> 01:56:20,440
Speaker 3: We're supposed to.

2563
01:56:20,720 --> 01:56:22,320
Speaker 11: If they're going to run the same stuff and do

2564
01:56:22,400 --> 01:56:25,120
Speaker 11: the same things, we got to stay on the same page.

2565
01:56:25,520 --> 01:56:27,680
Speaker 11: And what's crazy is we come in and out of

2566
01:56:27,720 --> 01:56:30,400
Speaker 11: it like we'll have two or three good possessions like that,

2567
01:56:30,520 --> 01:56:31,280
Speaker 11: and then we won't.

2568
01:56:33,400 --> 01:56:35,400
Speaker 1: And then he went on too. He wasn't done. He

2569
01:56:35,440 --> 01:56:37,160
Speaker 1: wanted to follow up after that as well.

2570
01:56:37,760 --> 01:56:40,360
Speaker 6: I tethered that together sounds good.

2571
01:56:41,240 --> 01:56:44,320
Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean this is a team that's you know,

2572
01:56:44,400 --> 01:56:48,520
Speaker 1: we're a week away from conference tournament. We're a couple

2573
01:56:48,600 --> 01:56:51,800
Speaker 1: of weeks away from the NCAA tournament. This was at

2574
01:56:51,920 --> 01:56:55,200
Speaker 1: times a team that was preseason and early season number one,

2575
01:56:55,760 --> 01:56:58,360
Speaker 1: and now you're thinking three seed Kevin at this point

2576
01:56:58,400 --> 01:57:00,000
Speaker 1: in time, depending on how the conference tournament go.

2577
01:57:00,440 --> 01:57:03,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean again, defensively, you obviously have a clear,

2578
01:57:03,280 --> 01:57:06,400
Speaker 2: clear issue, clear clearer question. But you know, as far

2579
01:57:06,440 --> 01:57:08,320
Speaker 2: as okay, you know, what does this mean from a

2580
01:57:08,400 --> 01:57:11,400
Speaker 2: bracket standpoint? Yeah, that's probably what I would say. You know,

2581
01:57:11,480 --> 01:57:15,120
Speaker 2: are you more on the three seed line Big ten tournament,

2582
01:57:15,160 --> 01:57:18,200
Speaker 2: you're probably likely to be. It's looking like a five,

2583
01:57:18,280 --> 01:57:20,240
Speaker 2: which means you got to play an extra game if

2584
01:57:20,280 --> 01:57:22,600
Speaker 2: you're gonna get on a run. So I think that's

2585
01:57:23,080 --> 01:57:25,960
Speaker 2: the impact in terms of March for this team. So,

2586
01:57:26,440 --> 01:57:29,280
Speaker 2: I mean, offensively, there's a lot, a lot you like,

2587
01:57:29,440 --> 01:57:32,160
Speaker 2: but again, you know, if that offense is not there,

2588
01:57:32,840 --> 01:57:37,200
Speaker 2: you know, stringing together whatever three four games to get

2589
01:57:37,200 --> 01:57:39,320
Speaker 2: here to Lucas Oil Stadium, that's a huge question mark

2590
01:57:39,360 --> 01:57:41,200
Speaker 2: from a defensive standpoint. You know, I thought a couple

2591
01:57:41,240 --> 01:57:44,000
Speaker 2: of years ago, when they obviously made the National Championship game,

2592
01:57:44,280 --> 01:57:46,600
Speaker 2: there were some games where, like Zakid very rare, but

2593
01:57:46,680 --> 01:57:49,320
Speaker 2: like Zachied, you would get in foul trouble or lower

2594
01:57:49,320 --> 01:57:52,040
Speaker 2: scoring games, and they found ways to win those games

2595
01:57:53,000 --> 01:57:57,800
Speaker 2: that to me hasn't been as apparent this season. You know,

2596
01:57:57,840 --> 01:57:59,160
Speaker 2: when you look at the opponents they've lost to you,

2597
01:57:59,160 --> 01:58:02,680
Speaker 2: I don't think any losses that egregious. But defensively, the

2598
01:58:02,720 --> 01:58:05,640
Speaker 2: issues there I think have been pretty consistent.

2599
01:58:05,920 --> 01:58:09,320
Speaker 1: So the last time Joe Lonardi updated his bracket online

2600
01:58:09,400 --> 01:58:12,760
Speaker 1: was the twenty seventh, so before the weekend. At that

2601
01:58:12,920 --> 01:58:15,840
Speaker 1: point in time, Indiana was in the last four in

2602
01:58:17,040 --> 01:58:19,800
Speaker 1: and Purdue was on the two line. James, what do

2603
01:58:19,840 --> 01:58:22,120
Speaker 1: you expect to see when he updates it again tomorrow

2604
01:58:22,120 --> 01:58:23,160
Speaker 1: morning at nine thirty.

2605
01:58:23,240 --> 01:58:25,600
Speaker 4: We do it at three and I you out first

2606
01:58:25,640 --> 01:58:26,080
Speaker 4: four out?

2607
01:58:26,080 --> 01:58:30,560
Speaker 1: Probably so because Ohio State was the first four out

2608
01:58:30,640 --> 01:58:31,240
Speaker 1: last week.

2609
01:58:31,440 --> 01:58:34,160
Speaker 4: I know, and we've talked about how Ohio State did

2610
01:58:34,160 --> 01:58:34,760
Speaker 4: they play each other?

2611
01:58:34,960 --> 01:58:38,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, Ohio State Indiana Saturday. Yeah, and I think they

2612
01:58:38,080 --> 01:58:39,040
Speaker 2: have a massive game.

2613
01:58:39,080 --> 01:58:41,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you talked about it last week Kevin,

2614
01:58:41,320 --> 01:58:43,720
Speaker 4: It's not necessarily like a winning in scenario, but it

2615
01:58:43,760 --> 01:58:46,920
Speaker 4: does have a lot of winning in implications. Granted how

2616
01:58:46,960 --> 01:58:48,320
Speaker 4: you do in the bits and tournament after that.

2617
01:58:48,840 --> 01:58:52,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, So it's that time of years. We're getting down

2618
01:58:52,160 --> 01:58:55,240
Speaker 1: to the point where win and you get in and

2619
01:58:55,280 --> 01:58:58,000
Speaker 1: then pretty soon it'll be win or go home. That's

2620
01:58:58,040 --> 01:58:58,640
Speaker 1: where we're at.

2621
01:58:58,880 --> 01:59:01,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, or is Kevin's says, we have our annual tradition

2622
01:59:02,000 --> 01:59:04,400
Speaker 4: with IU. Can you do enough to stay out of

2623
01:59:04,440 --> 01:59:05,280
Speaker 4: the n i T Tournament?

2624
01:59:09,400 --> 01:59:12,720
Speaker 1: They just had you know, they teased you when Dort

2625
01:59:12,760 --> 01:59:15,400
Speaker 1: came on and they had that three game winning streak

2626
01:59:15,400 --> 01:59:17,840
Speaker 1: and you thought, Okay, they're onto something here, but it

2627
01:59:18,120 --> 01:59:21,720
Speaker 1: just hasn't gelled and stayed together for the Hoosiers just

2628
01:59:21,800 --> 01:59:24,480
Speaker 1: hasn't and they looked at times they looked disjointed offensively.

2629
01:59:24,600 --> 01:59:28,800
Speaker 4: Yesterday they're a different team, Kevin. Without Nick Doran shooting

2630
01:59:28,800 --> 01:59:31,800
Speaker 4: the basketball like he was. Yeah, is it just him, right?

2631
01:59:31,840 --> 01:59:34,800
Speaker 4: But I think he changed that the dynamic for them

2632
01:59:34,840 --> 01:59:37,600
Speaker 4: to kind of have like that equalizer with a three

2633
01:59:37,600 --> 01:59:38,080
Speaker 4: point ball.

2634
01:59:38,280 --> 01:59:38,520
Speaker 1: Yeah.

2635
01:59:38,560 --> 01:59:41,640
Speaker 2: I think he obviously when he caught got hot there

2636
01:59:41,640 --> 01:59:45,040
Speaker 2: for whatever that was three or four games, it provided something.

2637
01:59:45,200 --> 01:59:47,600
Speaker 2: But at the end of the day. It's mid major

2638
01:59:47,640 --> 01:59:49,480
Speaker 2: all stars that have been exposed in the Big Ten.

2639
01:59:49,960 --> 01:59:52,240
Speaker 2: I mean, there's just no quality depth whatsoever. There's no

2640
01:59:52,280 --> 01:59:55,440
Speaker 2: frontcore depth. I'd argue Connor and Wright to glorified walk

2641
01:59:55,480 --> 01:59:57,560
Speaker 2: on trying to play point guard, you know, trying to

2642
01:59:57,560 --> 02:00:00,160
Speaker 2: be a starting point guard in the Big Ten. It's

2643
02:00:00,200 --> 02:00:02,240
Speaker 2: just a lot, I think to ask for to make

2644
02:00:02,320 --> 02:00:04,920
Speaker 2: up for some of your other deficiencies that you have.

2645
02:00:05,040 --> 02:00:08,560
Speaker 4: So yeah, Ryan the bench by the way, yesterday.

2646
02:00:08,160 --> 02:00:10,360
Speaker 2: For I you, Ryan Carr's got his hands full because

2647
02:00:10,400 --> 02:00:12,440
Speaker 2: I mean they they turn over pretty much an entire

2648
02:00:12,520 --> 02:00:15,800
Speaker 2: roster of meaningful players there. Dorn might be the only

2649
02:00:15,880 --> 02:00:18,800
Speaker 2: one of note. I think that really is back who's

2650
02:00:18,800 --> 02:00:20,800
Speaker 2: getting somewhat consistent minutes.

2651
02:00:21,080 --> 02:00:23,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what's happening in college basketball. We'll wrap up

2652
02:00:23,840 --> 02:00:26,120
Speaker 1: the show and take another look ahead of a very

2653
02:00:26,160 --> 02:00:29,400
Speaker 1: important week for the Indianapolis Colts. What you can expect there.

2654
02:00:29,640 --> 02:00:31,400
Speaker 1: Read a couple of your comments on the fan text

2655
02:00:31,400 --> 02:00:33,840
Speaker 1: line at two three, ninety ten seventy and get your

2656
02:00:33,840 --> 02:00:35,720
Speaker 1: ready to go for a snowy Monday.

2657
02:00:35,720 --> 02:00:50,160
Speaker 8: On nine, as you were listening to the Fan Morning

2658
02:00:50,200 --> 02:00:54,280
Speaker 8: Show on Sports Radio ninety five and one seven, the.

2659
02:00:54,320 --> 02:00:57,760
Speaker 1: Fan Mark Dyke, the last couple of songs you bring

2660
02:00:57,760 --> 02:00:58,840
Speaker 1: in a hard beat this morning.

2661
02:00:58,920 --> 02:00:59,360
Speaker 7: I dig it.

2662
02:01:00,080 --> 02:01:02,879
Speaker 6: People are not happy with the two hour delays and whatnot,

2663
02:01:02,920 --> 02:01:05,360
Speaker 6: so figure to lighten their spirits.

2664
02:01:05,000 --> 02:01:06,760
Speaker 1: Up a little bit. Get some ankst out right there.

2665
02:01:06,880 --> 02:01:07,120
Speaker 7: Huh.

2666
02:01:07,240 --> 02:01:10,080
Speaker 6: Aaron says in Greenfield, they didn't go with two hour delay.

2667
02:01:10,120 --> 02:01:11,640
Speaker 6: They went with E learning. I'm like, is that a

2668
02:01:11,640 --> 02:01:13,640
Speaker 6: worse fate than two hour delay? I feel like it

2669
02:01:13,720 --> 02:01:17,120
Speaker 6: has to be because nobody wants, and no teachers, parents, kids,

2670
02:01:17,200 --> 02:01:17,800
Speaker 6: nobody wants.

2671
02:01:19,800 --> 02:01:21,520
Speaker 1: It's awful. It's just the worst.

2672
02:01:21,520 --> 02:01:22,560
Speaker 6: Thank god they didn't have that one.

2673
02:01:22,960 --> 02:01:25,320
Speaker 4: If that happened with those jobs my dad had, I'd

2674
02:01:25,320 --> 02:01:26,640
Speaker 4: beat E learning from a warehouse.

2675
02:01:27,080 --> 02:01:29,560
Speaker 1: While we're talking about no stay at home, right, I

2676
02:01:29,600 --> 02:01:30,200
Speaker 1: gotta go to work.

2677
02:01:30,880 --> 02:01:35,480
Speaker 4: Get that Googogle chrome book. We don't make it work marks.

2678
02:01:35,720 --> 02:01:38,040
Speaker 1: While we're talking about music, my buddy Brett texted me

2679
02:01:38,400 --> 02:01:41,280
Speaker 1: get that Chicago bull stuff off my radio.

2680
02:01:41,360 --> 02:01:44,320
Speaker 6: He says, it was only, like I said, elimination chamber theme.

2681
02:01:44,400 --> 02:01:45,640
Speaker 6: That's the only reason it was played.

2682
02:01:45,680 --> 02:01:48,120
Speaker 1: It was more wwe not NBA trying.

2683
02:01:47,880 --> 02:01:50,520
Speaker 4: To you already get in an NFL team to move

2684
02:01:50,560 --> 02:01:53,760
Speaker 4: to Indiana from Chicago. What more do you want, Mark.

2685
02:01:53,840 --> 02:01:55,040
Speaker 6: Well, I think a lot of people would like the

2686
02:01:55,040 --> 02:01:56,800
Speaker 6: Bulls moved out of Chicago the way they've been playing.

2687
02:01:56,800 --> 02:01:58,880
Speaker 4: It is very true that that goes for a number

2688
02:01:58,880 --> 02:02:01,160
Speaker 4: of Chicago franchise to say the least.

2689
02:02:01,640 --> 02:02:03,560
Speaker 2: I think we heard JMV gonna be live over at

2690
02:02:03,600 --> 02:02:07,360
Speaker 2: Hinklefield House coming up on Wednesday for Butler's home finale. Mark,

2691
02:02:07,440 --> 02:02:10,760
Speaker 2: Let's go fast fingers three one seven, nine, ten seventy

2692
02:02:10,760 --> 02:02:13,560
Speaker 2: a little four pack. It's an early tip time six

2693
02:02:13,600 --> 02:02:17,480
Speaker 2: o'clock at Hinkle on Wednesday, and I believe they got

2694
02:02:17,520 --> 02:02:21,080
Speaker 2: some happy hour specials. There will four thirty gates open

2695
02:02:21,120 --> 02:02:21,920
Speaker 2: a Hinkle.

2696
02:02:22,360 --> 02:02:24,600
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go check that game out.

2697
02:02:24,760 --> 02:02:29,120
Speaker 2: Nice little hump day Wednesday there, Butler Creighton text line

2698
02:02:29,120 --> 02:02:31,480
Speaker 2: three one seven nine ten seventy four to four pack.

2699
02:02:31,680 --> 02:02:35,080
Speaker 1: I like that. I like that a lot Coults big

2700
02:02:35,120 --> 02:02:38,040
Speaker 1: decisions coming up, and we'll know by tomorrow at four

2701
02:02:38,200 --> 02:02:42,320
Speaker 1: Kevin Bowen what they uh what what the course of

2702
02:02:42,360 --> 02:02:44,080
Speaker 1: their offseason starts to look like? Right?

2703
02:02:44,440 --> 02:02:46,720
Speaker 2: Yes, yep, that'll be the first, I guess kind of

2704
02:02:46,720 --> 02:02:50,560
Speaker 2: official official answer. Just remind everybody that's when the franchise

2705
02:02:50,600 --> 02:02:54,680
Speaker 2: tag deadline closes. It's been a two week window and

2706
02:02:54,840 --> 02:02:57,320
Speaker 2: you'll get an answer on if the Colts used it

2707
02:02:57,640 --> 02:03:00,920
Speaker 2: or not, what type of tag they used, if it

2708
02:03:01,000 --> 02:03:04,280
Speaker 2: went to Alec Pierce or Daniel Jones. So those are

2709
02:03:04,280 --> 02:03:07,240
Speaker 2: all the things we'll know by four o'clock tomorrow, and

2710
02:03:07,280 --> 02:03:11,360
Speaker 2: then next week is really when things take off. Monday

2711
02:03:11,560 --> 02:03:14,920
Speaker 2: is I think the official NFL madness. That's when you'll

2712
02:03:14,920 --> 02:03:18,160
Speaker 2: get the old agreed to terms. Free agency pretty much

2713
02:03:18,200 --> 02:03:20,480
Speaker 2: begins on Monday. Here we go.

2714
02:03:20,480 --> 02:03:24,240
Speaker 4: Naps, no haircuts, no growing to the grocery store. The

2715
02:03:24,320 --> 02:03:25,800
Speaker 4: laptop stays with me at all.

2716
02:03:25,720 --> 02:03:28,800
Speaker 6: Times, and check where who you're following and what news

2717
02:03:28,880 --> 02:03:30,800
Speaker 6: is getting out there, because that's that's the time of

2718
02:03:30,880 --> 02:03:32,880
Speaker 6: year when the fake accounts really get you.

2719
02:03:33,080 --> 02:03:36,440
Speaker 2: A darn schefter, yeah.

2720
02:03:36,600 --> 02:03:38,680
Speaker 6: Or that in the schedule release. Those are the ones

2721
02:03:38,720 --> 02:03:40,680
Speaker 6: that get you every time, Oh man, every time.

2722
02:03:40,680 --> 02:03:43,120
Speaker 4: And the schedule release one is the funniest one because

2723
02:03:43,120 --> 02:03:45,680
Speaker 4: I'm thinking to myself, all you have to do is

2724
02:03:45,720 --> 02:03:48,160
Speaker 4: just wait for him to publish it. I mean the

2725
02:03:48,200 --> 02:03:50,720
Speaker 4: other stuff is more like speculation, Like the schedule release.

2726
02:03:50,720 --> 02:03:53,920
Speaker 4: I'm like, man, could you imagine betting or banking on

2727
02:03:53,960 --> 02:03:56,080
Speaker 4: someone saying a game is a certain week and it's

2728
02:03:56,080 --> 02:03:58,720
Speaker 4: not and you just spent money on a hotel. Come on, now,

2729
02:03:58,920 --> 02:04:00,720
Speaker 4: let's do you. Let's use our text clues and be

2730
02:04:00,720 --> 02:04:02,840
Speaker 4: smart out here. But yeah, I encourage you. Ought to

2731
02:04:03,040 --> 02:04:04,480
Speaker 4: go to the athletic go to one to seventy five

2732
02:04:04,600 --> 02:04:06,360
Speaker 4: fan dot com. We won't lie to you, but it

2733
02:04:06,400 --> 02:04:10,040
Speaker 4: certainly will be a very busy week or so in

2734
02:04:10,080 --> 02:04:10,880
Speaker 4: the NFL world.

2735
02:04:11,040 --> 02:04:13,680
Speaker 1: Cody has an interesting take at two three nine ten

2736
02:04:13,720 --> 02:04:15,839
Speaker 1: seventy on the fan text line. He says one positive

2737
02:04:15,840 --> 02:04:17,920
Speaker 1: for the Colts is Shane is a play caller. How

2738
02:04:18,000 --> 02:04:20,080
Speaker 1: much of the first half success was on Jones and

2739
02:04:20,120 --> 02:04:23,040
Speaker 1: how much was on Shane just on fire, scheming up

2740
02:04:23,040 --> 02:04:26,080
Speaker 1: and calling plays. Give him a healthy legit option instead

2741
02:04:26,080 --> 02:04:29,680
Speaker 1: of overpaying Jones. If there's no realistic option, just tag him.

2742
02:04:29,680 --> 02:04:31,720
Speaker 1: So it's only one year and no further commitment.

2743
02:04:32,720 --> 02:04:35,280
Speaker 4: But if you tag him, then that means Alec Pierce

2744
02:04:35,560 --> 02:04:38,760
Speaker 4: could leave and he would be open to a very

2745
02:04:38,760 --> 02:04:41,960
Speaker 4: big market. And I did put this in my story

2746
02:04:41,960 --> 02:04:44,400
Speaker 4: this morning or from a couple of sources around the

2747
02:04:44,480 --> 02:04:46,720
Speaker 4: league that if he hits free agency, I know the

2748
02:04:46,720 --> 02:04:49,920
Speaker 4: tag member I believe for the receiver is like twenty

2749
02:04:49,960 --> 02:04:53,280
Speaker 4: seven million. If he hits the open market, it could

2750
02:04:53,280 --> 02:04:56,640
Speaker 4: be closer to thirty And as crazy as that sounds, people,

2751
02:04:56,680 --> 02:04:58,680
Speaker 4: if he's not worth that much, you're worth whatever your

2752
02:04:58,680 --> 02:05:00,000
Speaker 4: market is willing to give you.

2753
02:05:00,080 --> 02:05:01,800
Speaker 1: So let's say that they put a tag on him

2754
02:05:01,840 --> 02:05:04,320
Speaker 1: and he comes back and he has a big year.

2755
02:05:04,880 --> 02:05:06,280
Speaker 1: Is he worth even more next time?

2756
02:05:06,320 --> 02:05:06,960
Speaker 4: Earial Jones?

2757
02:05:07,000 --> 02:05:08,640
Speaker 1: No, I'm talking about Alec Pierce.

2758
02:05:09,400 --> 02:05:11,120
Speaker 4: Well, you put the tag on him with the idea

2759
02:05:11,120 --> 02:05:13,360
Speaker 4: of getting to a long term agreement, so you wouldn't

2760
02:05:13,360 --> 02:05:16,720
Speaker 4: tag him, and I would think for both sides, you

2761
02:05:16,720 --> 02:05:18,440
Speaker 4: wouldn't want to tag him and make him play on

2762
02:05:18,440 --> 02:05:20,600
Speaker 4: a one year deal. The idea would be to get

2763
02:05:20,640 --> 02:05:23,080
Speaker 4: him under contract for the next three four years.

2764
02:05:23,280 --> 02:05:27,120
Speaker 2: Well, I think that's the difficulty in tagging Jones. I mean,

2765
02:05:27,320 --> 02:05:29,640
Speaker 2: so if you tag Jones, what's that forty something million?

2766
02:05:29,960 --> 02:05:33,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's forty three. I believe forty transition tag is

2767
02:05:33,120 --> 02:05:34,160
Speaker 4: around like thirty seven.

2768
02:05:34,680 --> 02:05:36,680
Speaker 2: Let's say they give the big franchise tag Jones. Ok,

2769
02:05:36,800 --> 02:05:40,000
Speaker 2: there's a forty three million dollar one year guarantee for

2770
02:05:40,040 --> 02:05:46,160
Speaker 2: a man coming back from a torn achilles in ten months. Really,

2771
02:05:47,080 --> 02:05:50,080
Speaker 2: that's what you want to do. And again, let's play

2772
02:05:50,080 --> 02:05:53,720
Speaker 2: it out. Let's say Daniel Jones now has a nice year.

2773
02:05:54,360 --> 02:05:57,000
Speaker 2: Now you're competing on the open market for him. We

2774
02:05:57,040 --> 02:06:00,880
Speaker 2: could tag him again, Well, certainly he could, but yeah,

2775
02:06:01,000 --> 02:06:03,800
Speaker 2: I guess if you went to appease your quarterback, you're

2776
02:06:03,800 --> 02:06:05,200
Speaker 2: doing the same song and dance next year.

2777
02:06:06,080 --> 02:06:08,240
Speaker 4: But okay, so let me you know, we can probably

2778
02:06:08,280 --> 02:06:10,760
Speaker 4: just discuss this, or maybe we won't even have to,

2779
02:06:10,800 --> 02:06:13,880
Speaker 4: depending on what happens tomorrow. But during tomorrow show, I

2780
02:06:13,880 --> 02:06:16,120
Speaker 4: think it's it's am I be worth asking would you

2781
02:06:16,200 --> 02:06:19,960
Speaker 4: be open to tagging him this year? Let's say he

2782
02:06:20,000 --> 02:06:21,680
Speaker 4: has a good year, he gets through it, you tag

2783
02:06:21,760 --> 02:06:24,920
Speaker 4: him again, and you still give yourself the option of

2784
02:06:25,240 --> 02:06:28,360
Speaker 4: having an out in twenty twenty eight, because, like you said,

2785
02:06:28,440 --> 02:06:30,960
Speaker 4: it essentially is if you tag him twice, it's this

2786
02:06:31,040 --> 02:06:31,920
Speaker 4: justially a two year deal.

2787
02:06:32,040 --> 02:06:34,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, but crooking if I'm wrong, But it's also very high.

2788
02:06:34,160 --> 02:06:35,720
Speaker 2: You're right if you tag him this year, be what

2789
02:06:35,840 --> 02:06:37,840
Speaker 2: forty three million we said, you tag him next year

2790
02:06:38,080 --> 02:06:42,000
Speaker 2: north of fifty yeah, yeah, ninety million and guarantees. Why

2791
02:06:42,000 --> 02:06:43,920
Speaker 2: don't I just sign him right now? I know, for

2792
02:06:43,920 --> 02:06:48,320
Speaker 2: a two year deal with fifty million? Yeah, in guaranteed. No,

2793
02:06:48,600 --> 02:06:51,000
Speaker 2: I don't, I hear you out, But no, I'm not

2794
02:06:51,080 --> 02:06:53,440
Speaker 2: going tag tag and now I'm north of ninety million.

2795
02:06:53,440 --> 02:06:55,000
Speaker 4: But that's what I'm saying. No, I'm not saying I

2796
02:06:55,040 --> 02:06:58,760
Speaker 4: would do it. I'm saying from the player's perspective, they're like, well, okay,

2797
02:06:58,760 --> 02:07:01,080
Speaker 4: I'll play him the tag. I don't care. Whereas with

2798
02:07:01,120 --> 02:07:02,560
Speaker 4: the team, I think there's more of a sentive to

2799
02:07:02,560 --> 02:07:03,800
Speaker 4: get a long term deal done.

2800
02:07:03,960 --> 02:07:06,840
Speaker 2: And I mean that could be that with Jones too.

2801
02:07:06,880 --> 02:07:08,800
Speaker 2: I mean, Jones has had so many injuries, you know,

2802
02:07:08,880 --> 02:07:10,520
Speaker 2: is there any element of trying to get a multi

2803
02:07:10,600 --> 02:07:11,960
Speaker 2: year done assuming the guarantees?

2804
02:07:12,400 --> 02:07:13,960
Speaker 4: That's bat true with that, that is true because if

2805
02:07:13,960 --> 02:07:17,280
Speaker 4: he gets injured again this upcoming season, then realistically you

2806
02:07:17,280 --> 02:07:20,000
Speaker 4: would not want to offer him another contract that is

2807
02:07:20,040 --> 02:07:22,800
Speaker 4: long term. But again, you've kind of made this bed

2808
02:07:22,840 --> 02:07:24,320
Speaker 4: and you got to figure out how you want to

2809
02:07:24,360 --> 02:07:24,800
Speaker 4: sleep in it.

2810
02:07:25,160 --> 02:07:29,040
Speaker 1: M justin Fremandy, says Daniel Jones about to be the

2811
02:07:29,120 --> 02:07:30,640
Speaker 1: new Kirk Cousins.

2812
02:07:30,960 --> 02:07:33,800
Speaker 4: First Ballett Hall of Famer at the Bank. Baby, I

2813
02:07:33,880 --> 02:07:36,160
Speaker 4: told you I would much rather be overpaid than underrated.

2814
02:07:36,160 --> 02:07:38,000
Speaker 4: I don't want to be underrated ever in my life.

2815
02:07:38,200 --> 02:07:40,040
Speaker 4: I want to be overpaid every single time.

2816
02:07:40,120 --> 02:07:41,360
Speaker 2: Reach reach of that.

2817
02:07:41,520 --> 02:07:44,600
Speaker 1: Oh Man, Brad says, if Jones is playing hardball with

2818
02:07:44,640 --> 02:07:46,760
Speaker 1: his demands, there has to be another team behind the

2819
02:07:46,800 --> 02:07:49,600
Speaker 1: scenes telling him what they would pay should he hit

2820
02:07:49,640 --> 02:07:52,160
Speaker 1: the market. Then, he says, Ballot will screw this up

2821
02:07:52,160 --> 02:07:53,720
Speaker 1: one way or another, No doubt.

2822
02:07:54,440 --> 02:07:57,280
Speaker 4: I will say when it comes to trusting gms and

2823
02:07:57,320 --> 02:08:00,480
Speaker 4: team presidents in this city. For one franchise is going

2824
02:08:00,480 --> 02:08:02,960
Speaker 4: through rough patch with the Pacers, I'm saying, hey, you

2825
02:08:02,960 --> 02:08:04,920
Speaker 4: trust them. You give the benefit of the doubt for

2826
02:08:05,040 --> 02:08:07,000
Speaker 4: the calls. I'm saying, boy, you're right to doubt him.

2827
02:08:08,280 --> 02:08:11,600
Speaker 1: Kevin Pritchard shown consistently over time that he'll put the

2828
02:08:11,600 --> 02:08:13,480
Speaker 1: Pacers in the best position he can put him in.

2829
02:08:13,720 --> 02:08:14,200
Speaker 4: He's earned that.

2830
02:08:14,720 --> 02:08:16,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like that too.

2831
02:08:16,320 --> 02:08:16,440
Speaker 11: Uh.

2832
02:08:16,760 --> 02:08:19,440
Speaker 1: What's your day look like? Sportswise, my man, It's.

2833
02:08:19,280 --> 02:08:21,680
Speaker 2: A quiet Monday. Quite Tuesday too. It is a for

2834
02:08:21,760 --> 02:08:25,280
Speaker 2: those curious about what this week looks like. Wednesday is

2836
02:08:30,160 --> 02:08:32,760

2837
02:08:32,800 --> 02:08:35,520
Speaker 2: at six thirty, and I believe it's Perdue at eight thirty.

2838
02:08:35,560 --> 02:08:37,880
Speaker 2: I think I you Purdue are doing the doubleheader thing again.

2839
02:08:38,320 --> 02:08:40,400
Speaker 2: This time it's on Big ten Network, and then Pacers

2840
02:08:40,440 --> 02:08:43,800
Speaker 2: have got the late start. So Wednesday is your super

Speaker 2: busy basketball day. From a local standpoint, so I mean,

2842
02:08:49,560 --> 02:08:51,040
Speaker 2: don't tell me I got to go home and shovel.

2843
