Some incredible college basketball. 10 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 2: To take care of. 11 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,360 Speaker 1: The Pacers play a couple of times between now and 12 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 1: Monday night. They'll be playing simultaneously with the championship game. 13 00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 1: But good morning everyone, along with James Boyd and Kevin Bowen. 14 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: Mark Dyton, I'm jeff Rickard Mark. Have we do in 15 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 1: this morning? Little little tough baseball news last night? 16 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 3: You okay, not really. 17 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 4: I kind of expected Kyle Tucker not to come back 18 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 4: to the Cubs, so you had already. It's the Dodgers 19 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 4: just unlimited spending spree. 20 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, they just. 21 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 1: They're putting together like they now have. According to wins 22 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 1: above replacement, Kevin, the Dodgers now have four of the 23 00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: top twenty position players in baseball. 24 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 3: Think you lost man win above replacement there. 25 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: That's how they measure everybody's with. What they try to 26 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:04,920 Speaker 1: measure their ultimate success. 27 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 2: There's this complicated formula. 28 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 5: What it is. 29 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: It's called war, it's it's wins above replacement. But look, 30 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: he's he's a great player. He does a lot of 31 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 1: great things. He's not just as you know, he can 32 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 1: play defense. He's a terrific player. He's come through in 33 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: the clutch. And now I guess he goes to the poor, 34 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 1: down trotten Los Angeles Dodgers, who were seeking a third 35 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: World Series in a row. 36 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 3: Have we ever mark at least your owner and your 37 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 3: boot in front of the Xavier Musketeer crowd like the 38 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 3: Red stood the other night there? So that went pretty rough. 39 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 3: Where are you gonna go? Rightfully? 40 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 5: So? 41 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, So I'm just curious in football, guys, can you 42 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 1: think of a team that has just outright loaded up 43 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: salary wise and everywhere you look there's just all pros, 44 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: not necessarily homegrown, but collection. I guess the closest thing 45 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: I can think of recently, Remember the Rams won their 46 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: first Super Bowl and their defense was just lights out 47 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: that Aaron Donald. They had all all pros in the secondary, 48 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: they had all pro linebackers, had all Pro defensive ends. 49 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: They were just everywhere all the time. I think Wade 50 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: Phillips was the DC for that team. 51 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,239 Speaker 6: I believe that was the whole bleep those picks philosophy 52 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,360 Speaker 6: when they just went all in and won it, which 53 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 6: that works. 54 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 3: When you win it. 55 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 6: So yeah, I was getting a crack out of all 56 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 6: the fans who were putting it in like an NBA terms. 57 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 3: They were like, this is like. 58 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,639 Speaker 6: If the Katie Warriors then added Giannis or something, and 59 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 6: I was like, whoa, I know it was like that, 60 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 6: but yeah, I will say I don't know how baseball 61 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 6: fans feel about it, but it does seem like this 62 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 6: is a Yankees esque feel to it. But at the 63 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 6: same time, when there's no salary cap, can you be 64 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 6: mad at them for spending money to be better? 65 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 2: I mean, well that sets up quite the talk about 66 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:46,359 Speaker 2: the nil. 67 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 3: You spend the money to win, they spend money to win. 68 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 2: Mark. 69 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: What do you think the chances are of workstoppage in 70 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 1: twenty twenty seven? 71 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 7: Hi? 72 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 4: Very high, because they're going to say we can't keep 73 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 4: spending the owners little bitch and moan that we can't 74 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 4: keep spending all this money while also handing over over 75 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 4: all that money to players all the time. 76 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 2: You know what's crazy? 77 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: What the Dodgers did with him too, and Kevin I 78 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: think you really appreciate you. 79 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 2: Guys both would appreciate this. 80 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 1: They said, we're going to give you sixty million dollars 81 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: a year, but only the first two years are guaranteed, 82 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: and then we're going to have an opt out on 83 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: both ends after year two and after year three, so 84 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: they're not stuck to him long term for whatever reason. 85 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: If it doesn't work out, he gets more money short 86 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: term and has a whole nother contract coming up in 87 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: maybe two or three years. 88 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 3: Pretty crazy stuff. Honestly, it's a huge reason I hate 89 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 3: baseball because it's. 90 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: All about stuff like that, that whole conversation. 91 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think of all of our professional sports leagues, 92 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 3: that lacks parody the most, And yeah, it's pretty much 93 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 3: just a money gram. 94 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 6: Well, you know what has parody now is college football, 95 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 6: which is why you was in the National Championship. Considering 96 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 6: how the rules have kind of changed and how Kurtz 97 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 6: Signetti has embraced that. So it does feel kind of 98 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 6: crazy that when we know we come in Monday, that'll 99 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 6: be the day of the game. I'm kind of like 100 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 6: weirded out that we still have one more show before 101 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 6: the game. Not used to these primetime matchups, Kevin. You know, 102 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 6: we had one for the Colts that didn't go, look, 103 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 6: go that well, But when it comes to IU, the 104 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 6: other favorite for a good reason, and it just seems like, 105 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,600 Speaker 6: you know, when that game comes, boy, the emotions, man, 106 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 6: any nerves. If you're an IU person, do you have nerves? 107 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 6: Are you more confident and nervous? Are you always nervous 108 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 6: because of the history. 109 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 3: Of the program. Yeah, I mean, I think honestly, some 110 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 3: of it feels a little bit like last year's tripped 111 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 3: to the playoffs of Like, you know, I think to 112 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 3: a good chunk of Indiana fans it's still just house money. 113 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 3: I mean, do you think so? Yeah, I mean, you 114 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 3: know you're gonna have something that will sit there and say, hey, 115 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 3: when you get to this point, you obviously want to 116 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 3: win it all, and you know, the number one seed, 117 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 3: you're a touchdown favorite. But like if you were to 118 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 3: have asked Indiana fans at the start of the year, hey, 119 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 3: you're gonna win the Rose bul and you're gonna win 120 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 3: the Peach Bowl, and you're gonna go to the National 121 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 3: Championship Game, they said, where do I sign up? 122 00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 7: Right? 123 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 3: At back, right. I think that feeling is probably gonna 124 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,600 Speaker 3: be different than if Purdue fans, you know, they get 125 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 3: to Monday of the National Championship and then you know 126 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 3: that doesn't go their way. I think it's two very 127 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 3: different feelings, and the history of the programs I think 128 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 3: has a lot to do with that. So, yeah, Indiana'll 129 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 3: get down to Miami later tonight, and now everything shifts 130 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 3: to South Beach for preparation. 131 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 6: So I don't think they're going to see a lot 132 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 6: of South Beach when they're down there. 133 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 3: No, you would hope not. Tourism probably wouldn't be a 134 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 3: good thing. 135 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 6: Could you imagine boy missing a bed check for Kurt Signetti? 136 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: Oh lord, if I'm Kurt Signetti. After that last practice, 137 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: I'm just telling everybody, anybody misses a bed check or 138 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: I find out about any nonsense, just go home. Just 139 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: just don't don't bother showing up unless if it's if 140 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: it's Fernanda Mendoza. Nothing ever happened right there, you go, Uh, coach, 141 00:05:59,080 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 1: you looked. 142 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 2: At his room, looked like he was there to me. 143 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 6: Rather of those movies where you got like the little 144 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:07,039 Speaker 6: out of the props in the buler set up exactly, 145 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 6: So there you go. 146 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: Oh man, oh man, this is gonna be so much 147 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 1: fun this weekend and so much to do before we 148 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 1: even get to the National Championship game. And for guys 149 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 1: like us, that's a great thing, and folks listening, it's 150 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: a great thing because if you're all in on Indiana, 151 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 1: you do as as you pointed out, James, you gotta 152 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 1: You're gonna have to wait for a few days. But 153 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: in the meantime, you got a Pacers game tonight, You've 154 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: got all kinds of college basketball tomorrow, You've got two 155 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: NFL games on both Saturday and Sunday. If you have 156 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,359 Speaker 1: to wait a whole weekend for National Championship, this is 157 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: probably the weekend to do it. 158 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:41,919 Speaker 2: Kevin. 159 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 3: A lot of viewing, a lot of viewing spread outs. 160 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 3: I can't wait. You know, I think all four divisional 161 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 3: games offer some really compelling uh you know games, And 162 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 3: tonight tonight's a tank Bowl right inside a gamebridge Field House, 163 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 3: Pacers and Pelicans. 164 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, they they've had rough starts to the season, let's 165 00:06:58,880 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: put it that way. 166 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, that would be be an understatement. So if you 167 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 3: are all in on the Tankathon and what the NBA 168 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 3: draft could look like you are rooting for the Pelicans. 169 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 3: Tonight's here, all right, Dan Williamson I think is healthy, 170 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 3: which he is, honestly, when you play these teams out West, 171 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 3: can we check it again at halftime once a year? 172 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 3: I do think, you know, sometimes for home fans that 173 00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 3: want to get the one view of these Western Conference guys. 174 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 3: I don't know how many Zion fans are still out there, 175 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 3: but nonetheless I believe he would be good to go 176 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 3: for tonight. 177 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: Zion's fun to watch, and he seems like a good kid. 178 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: He just I was almost never available. It feels like James. 179 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, that draft class. I want to say it was 180 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 6: him number one, John Rant number two. Both have been disappointments, 181 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 6: But get back to IU. Look at the story and 182 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 6: any star from Dana Bembo, and she did a store 183 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 6: on a guy named Dave Platt, who longtime I You fan, 184 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 6: attended every game during the undefeated nineteen seventy six run 185 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 6: for basketball and has now attended every single game for 186 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 6: the football team going undefeated. I believe he'll be in 187 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 6: the National Championship game Monday. How about that for a 188 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 6: sports fan. That's pretty cool. Man, that is being dialed 189 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 6: in with your program. And I'm assuming he's been so 190 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 6: many more games besides the ones when they. 191 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 3: Were good, but Holman Road, he went to all of 192 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 3: them and stuff. 193 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 2: Yeah something, what a great job of digging that story 194 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 2: up too. 195 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 6: That's a great story, some of that stuff. But yeah, 196 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 6: I enjoyed it and just reading about his experience. He's 197 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:32,079 Speaker 6: seventy five, so yeah, fifty years of seeing I you 198 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 6: go through all the ebbs and flows, and boy, if 199 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 6: you're able to kind of bookend it with this, that 200 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 6: would be something I was thinking to you. 201 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: The other night when Notre Dame was on, they showed 202 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 1: Digger Phelps in the crowd. 203 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 2: Did you see did you see that little kind of 204 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 2: way to Digger? 205 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, Digger is that every game? 206 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, it's just it was cool to shoutn't seen 207 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 2: him for a while. 208 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,959 Speaker 1: I've missed those cutaways and I thought, oh cool, I 209 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 1: didn't know he was still around the program. 210 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:53,680 Speaker 2: He must live in South Bend. 211 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, right there on the scores, Taylor, right there underneath 212 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 3: that basket pretty much every game. 213 00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 2: Does he still carry like a highlighter around? That was 214 00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 2: his kind of this signature. 215 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:02,959 Speaker 3: Thanks usually holding it when the camera pans doing it. 216 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,079 Speaker 2: That's pretty cool, man. I like that. 217 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't see it in his hand, but I 218 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: hadn't probably a year or two. I hadn't seen him 219 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: last time, you know, speaking to guys like that. It's 220 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: been a couple of years. But one one early morning 221 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: at the airport, I was in line at the Starbucks 222 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,719 Speaker 1: and I turned back around and Gene Katie was setting. 223 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 3: And I believe he was there at the Iowa game 224 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 3: the other night. Yeah, I did him on the on 225 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,319 Speaker 3: the broadcast there. So good to see. Jeans still a 226 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 3: good enough health to be inside of one of the 227 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 3: rocous places in college basketball. 228 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 5: Yeah. 229 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 2: So how you feeling now, Mark? 230 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 1: As we get closer and closer to the Bears game 231 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: coming up on you know, going to be a chili 232 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 1: chilli night, What do you think. 233 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 3: I'm ready. 234 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 4: I feel like it's house money at this point. So 235 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 4: we'll see what happens. That the every statistics says that 236 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 4: the Rams are the better team, and yet the Bears 237 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 4: have found away every all day all season. So I'm optimistic. 238 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 4: I think they can hang with them, but that is 239 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,439 Speaker 4: the most complete team on the other side of the field. 240 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 4: So we'll see what happens. 241 00:09:58,080 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 2: But that's the last game of the weekend. I think 242 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 2: it is. 243 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 4: It's a Sunday night game. 244 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, so it'll be chilling preparing for the. 245 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 3: Loss with all those noms, right, No, house, I do 246 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 3: the playoffs. I do feel like interesting thing. 247 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 4: I do feel like it's gravy at this point as 248 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,679 Speaker 4: far as like you beat your arch rival knocked on 249 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 4: the playoffs. So there's so much emotion that went into 250 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 4: that last one. And like, I don't know any Rams fans, 251 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 4: so there's not really anyone that can trash talk to Soday. 252 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 4: I mean I don't fans because I feel like if 253 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,559 Speaker 4: it was in La ninety percent, that's sa ay wonel 254 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 4: have been Chicago Bears fans anyway. 255 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: So quick question for you when it comes to Caleb Williams, 256 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: is he already cemented himself as as like he's going 257 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: to be a force in the NFC for years to 258 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 1: come or does he. 259 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 2: Need to win one more playoff game this year? 260 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 5: No? 261 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 4: I think I think he's arrived. I mean, he's got 262 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 4: the right coaching Ben Johnson, He's you know, every can 263 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 4: look at completion percentage to say well that needs to 264 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 4: be better, okay, but like making plays regardless so you 265 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,719 Speaker 4: can throw completion percentage out the window when you need 266 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 4: to play. He's come through every single time. So he's 267 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 4: got that it factor, I think. And and you know, 268 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 4: maybe the statistical completion percentage won't be there, but everything 269 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 4: else seems to be there. So I'll ride with him 270 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 4: here on out. 271 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I've watched them a couple of times, just the 272 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: last several weeks. Obviously playoff game was one of them. 273 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: You're right, he can do some maddening things, but he 274 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: does come through the clutch and Kevin, he makes throws 275 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: across the field, the downfield. Sometimes there's very few guys 276 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: in the NFL can make those throws. 277 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, honestly, I think he's a pretty At times, I 278 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 3: would think he's a little bit of a frustrating quarterback 279 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 3: to watch because you know, some of the layups, if 280 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 3: you will, maybe aren't there. But then when the game's 281 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 3: on the line, his creative ability is you know, probably 282 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 3: right up there frankly with anybody else in the league. 283 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 3: And obviously you saw that on the fourth down play 284 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 3: that sent Mark from up to midnight. 285 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 4: Reverse science. Like I said, that throw reverse science. 286 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 1: All right, coming up in a minute, we've got the 287 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: check down and we get you ready to go for 288 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: a big weekend of sports. It'll happen all right here 289 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: at ninety three to five and one oh seven five 290 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: to the fan. Yeah, a lot of basketball coming up 291 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: this weekend as we get ready for conference tournaments later 292 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: at the end of February. 293 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 2: So a lot there. 294 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: But in the meantime, we've got one more football game 295 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: to worry about in college sports, Monday night in Miami 296 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: hard Rock Stadium, Indiana University undefeated at fifteen to zero 297 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: taking on the Miami Hurricanes. They have won their last 298 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: seven in a row. Currently, the Hoosiers are eight and 299 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: a half point favorites, and Kevin goes back to a 300 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: question we were talking. 301 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 2: About just a moment ago. 302 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: Indiana fans eight and a half point favorites feel pretty 303 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 1: confident about things or is this like white knuckle time. 304 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 5: Oh. 305 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 3: I haven't run into an Indiana fan that thinks they 306 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 3: won't win by at least a couple scores, So I 307 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 3: think that's kind of given. You know what they've done 308 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 3: here the last couple of games. I'll continue to reiterate 309 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 3: what I've said about Miami all week. I think they 310 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 3: are crazy and that can be good crazy, and that 311 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 3: can be bad crazy. They're crazy enough to lose SMU 312 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 3: and Louisville and get blown out on Monday night, but 313 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 3: they're also crazy enough to make this a definite game. 314 00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 3: So I think they got a lot of volatility to 315 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 3: and it's just a different, I think challenge than Indiana 316 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 3: has had so far. They've got some individual talent. You know, 317 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,319 Speaker 3: I saw a mock draft yesterday that had I think 318 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 3: three first round picks too in the top ten from 319 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,319 Speaker 3: the Hurricanes. So you know, again, do those guys step 320 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 3: up and make plays or is it more of the 321 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 3: team of Indiana showing their discipline and you know, having 322 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 3: a historic run complete on Monday and. 323 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 1: James Kurt Signetti will probably he likes to say hungry 324 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: and humble, he'll probably convince that team that they are 325 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: plucky underdogs when they kick off on Monday nights. 326 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, and they're not like we talked about. This is 327 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 6: not Cinderella. This is King Kong, best team in the 328 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 6: costball landscape, rolling through opponents here in the castle Ball playoff. 329 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:41,559 Speaker 6: And we'll see if it continue use here in a 330 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 6: couple of days. 331 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: Or maybe he takes the other attack.

Two worst teams, two of the 355 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 3: worst teams in the standings right now when you look 356 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 3: at it. So, yeah, the Pacers are a three and 357 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 3: a half point favorite for tonight. That is something we 358 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 3: have not seen too often this season. This is one 359 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 3: of those games simulcast, by the way on WTHR. So 360 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 3: for some reason whatever, you haven't watched the Pacers this year, 361 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:52,359 Speaker 3: you aren't a fan Duel Sports network, but you get WTCHR, 362 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 3: you'll be able to watch the Pacers tonight. 363 00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 364 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: Indiana is in last place in the Eastern Conference at 365 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,480 Speaker 1: nine to thirty two.

I think we 373 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 6: can say that throughout this point in the season. 374 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 1: Well, you don't get down twenty seven in the first 375 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: half if you're not having a bad first half. 376 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 3: Seen it too many times this season. 377 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 2: And then they pulled it with there we go. 378 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 4: There you go from on the line tonight. 379 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: Boys, Yeah, I will put out they did point pulled 380 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: it within four with a couple of minutes to go 381 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: in that game. 382 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 6: Hey make it look cosmetic, all right, So if you're 383 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 6: a Pacers fan, Are you hoping for a win tonight 384 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 6: or no?

Where you were on the ground, 507 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 2: there was just a dusting. 508 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 3: I think I think that's why Mark Dyton is playing 509 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 3: a snowman. Jeezy nod about that. 510 00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 2: Mark in your hood? 511 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 3: Did something in your neighborhood? 512 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 2: Did you guys get good snow? 513 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:19,199 Speaker 5: Wait? 514 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 6: You know my neighborhood's literally right here, devastation is. 515 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 3: But got a little dusting out there, and did the 516 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 3: old lazy and get the. 517 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 6: Front at the back end. Hey, anybody behind me, we'll 518 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 6: get the wipers on. 519 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 1: All right, So maybe take a few minutes more this morning. 520 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 2: But didn't. It's cold. 521 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: I would watch more for ice than anything else, but uh, 522 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: I was looking at some stuff last night, and it's 523 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 1: crazy when you think of a Heisman Trophy winner that 524 00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: I think is a deserved Heisman Trophy, and you want 525 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 1: to talk about efficiency. I was looking at game by 526 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,479 Speaker 1: game from Mendoza yesterday, and you know, he only had 527 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 1: one three hundred yard game this year, and he had 528 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,680 Speaker 1: five games where he threw for less than two hundred yards. Now, 529 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: some of those are in blowouts where they pull him 530 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 1: after the third quarter whatever. But the thing when you 531 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 1: watch him and then week out, and we've talked about 532 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:07,679 Speaker 1: this with a lot of guests, Kevin, he's just every 533 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 1: ball seems to be on target and at the right time, 534 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: a conversion of a third down, a key fourth down 535 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 1: they need third and eight, and he's just throwing a 536 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 1: ball into a tight window and his receivers do a 537 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,640 Speaker 1: great job of going up and taking it away from 538 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 1: the defense. It is remarkable how efficient he is at quarterback. 539 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 2: And he'll run if you have to, obviously. 540 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, the one stat that's just the craziest 541 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 3: one of all is what is it, five games a 542 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 3: season he's had more touchdowns than incompletions. It's just every 543 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 3: time I see it, I can see him be blown 544 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 3: away by it. And you know, I'll go back to 545 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 3: the conversation that we had with Peyton Ramsey yesterday in 546 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 3: the nine o'clock hour, the former value quarterback, and you know, 547 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,359 Speaker 3: we definitely got into this Monday James. You know, I 548 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 3: know in recap in the Oregon game. To me, I 549 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 3: think what has so many Indiana fans confident as hell 550 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 3: for Monday Night is since Mendoz has won the Heisman Trophy, 551 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 3: since they became the number one overall seed in the 552 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 3: college football you know playoff, their game has gone up, 553 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 3: and you can say up multiple levels, like you know, 554 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 3: if you want to boil it down to the last 555 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 3: five games of the regular season, there certainly were blowouts 556 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,679 Speaker 3: in there, but that Penn State game was one heroic 557 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 3: ketch from Omar Cooper away from going the other way. 558 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 3: If Ohio State doesn't miss a twenty three yard field goal, 559 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 3: do they lose the Big Ten title game? They very 560 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,959 Speaker 3: well could have. So you know, they have looked at 561 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 3: those games and said we're going to have inconsequential fourth quarters. 562 00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 3: Now the question is like, wait, why is Kurt Signetti 563 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 3: leaving Fernando Mendoz in the game that's been the question 564 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,639 Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter, which is just amazing against Alabama 565 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 3: and Oregon. So that I think is maturation in college sports. 566 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:51,640 Speaker 3: You don't typically see the awards have flocked to Bloomington. 567 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 3: More of the attention has gone there, and their level 568 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 3: of play has risen. 569 00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, and they don't show any signs of going anywhere soon. 570 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 2: Look at what kurtziknet. 571 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 1: He's already done on the transfer portal, and I'm sure 572 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 1: over time he'll start to integrate his own high school 573 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 1: recruits because he clearly knows what he's looking for when 574 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: he goes recruiting at every level he's been at. 575 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 6: James Absolutely, it's funny watching some of the older videos 576 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 6: from previous intro press conferences at different schools or postgame 577 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 6: press conferences, and all the principles are the same. The 578 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 6: level has just changed, and so that's been kind of 579 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 6: cool to see. And I will say I'm curious about 580 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 6: the setup for the IU fans who are not going 581 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 6: to the game, which would be the majority of them, obviously. 582 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 6: Are you watching this with friends and family? Are you 583 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,880 Speaker 6: the crazy person like myself? When it's a big game, 584 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 6: you got to be around people who are locked in 585 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,439 Speaker 6: only to the game. Is it I want to go 586 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:47,919 Speaker 6: to the watch party downtown or in Bloomington. 587 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 3: Let me know. 588 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:50,959 Speaker 6: I would love to hear from you all two three, nine, 589 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 6: ten seventy text line or just call in. I want 590 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:55,479 Speaker 6: to know what you're doing for the title game and 591 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 6: how you're getting through it. 592 00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 3: Is it solo? Is it together? Is it isolated? Is unity? 593 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 2: Yeah? 594 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 6: I'm picturing myself like I feel like if I was 595 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 6: a diehard IU fan, I'd be standing in front of 596 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 6: my TV probably for three hours, and if anybody asks 597 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 6: me anything other than the game, they will probably get 598 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 6: escorted out. 599 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 8: Good. 600 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:14,760 Speaker 3: No time to catch up. 601 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 2: If I don't know, I don't want. 602 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 3: To know how kids are doing, Kevin. The kids I 603 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 3: wanted to do well are on the TV. 604 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 1: I get there, look at their games or teams that 605 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 1: I'm cheering for, where I feel exactly like that, You know, 606 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,439 Speaker 1: when I'm watching an Avalanche playoff game in hockey, just 607 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 1: I want to go downstairs in my little, my little 608 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: world and watch my big screen TV and be left alone. 609 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 1: I like if my kids are there with me, but 610 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 1: for the most part, it's it's focused on hockey. 611 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 2: Kevin. 612 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 1: You get that way with Notre outside of Notre in basketball, 613 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:44,360 Speaker 1: you get that way. 614 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 3: Uh, yeah, I definitely am in my cocoon, and yeah, 615 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 3: I want to be weird under my own roof. 616 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 6: I was gonna say, are you are? Are you a 617 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 6: little embarrassed at all? If you get in public, like boy, 618 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 6: if I yell at this play or at this sequence, 619 00:25:59,080 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 6: is somebody gonna look at me? 620 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 3: We'll definitely off be Kevin Bowen, the radio guy. I'm not. 621 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 3: There's no chance in hell I'm out in public watching 622 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 3: the day football or Notre Dame basketball. You know, it 623 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 3: is pretty wild when you go back to the old 624 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 3: adage of in forty nine states, it's just basketball. This 625 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 3: is Indiana. You know, you could almost say that in 626 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 3: regards to college sports with I think you can make 627 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 3: a strong argument the two biggest most unlikely stories maybe 628 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 3: in the history of college sports. When you look at 629 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,040 Speaker 3: what Butler did in the back to back years and 630 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,680 Speaker 3: you look what Indiana's doing right now, you know they 631 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 3: are on any sort of list of the most unlikely 632 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 3: sports stories in college sports, football and basketball, and both 633 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:41,400 Speaker 3: right here in our own backyard. That's pretty freakin' wild. 634 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 3: And so you know, I was thinking about that the 635 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,160 Speaker 3: other day when I don't think it was like Shelvin 636 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 3: Mack highlights popped up on my Twitter feed and it 637 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 3: was the game against Pittsburgh, which was a wild, wild 638 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,159 Speaker 3: game when they upset the number one seed there in 639 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 3: the second round of the second run to the national 640 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 3: title game. And you know, to debate those two, we've 641 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,160 Speaker 3: had the debate. But you know, when you think about 642 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 3: it from a national landscape, any sort of list that 643 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 3: you're gonna put up there of the most unlikely college 644 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:12,400 Speaker 3: sports stories, two of them, if not the top two, 645 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 3: are right here in our state. You know what. 646 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 6: I saw Shelvin in the airport, like this had to 647 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 6: be years ago, and he was just by himself whatever. 648 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 6: I didn't say anything to him. I think when you 649 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 6: work in pro sports, you kind of give those guys 650 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,399 Speaker 6: that grace of maybe you don't want to take the 651 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 6: picture or do the autograph thing. Not that I would 652 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 6: ask for it anyways, but just wanted to give them 653 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 6: some space. 654 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 3: But even then, I was like, how are people not 655 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 3: flocking to you right now? You're a legend around here. 656 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 6: I believe he was doing maybe some might have been 657 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 6: g leaguer NBA like coach training work, or whatever. But 658 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 6: I'm just thinking to myself, like, this is a legend 659 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 6: and he's going through tsa pre check like it's nothing. Oh, 660 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 6: losing recipes. 661 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 2: Stars, They're just like the rest of us. 662 00:27:56,160 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 6: James Man, I was thinking anybody walking by with any 663 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 6: Inklingham sports fandom, she'd have been telling their kid, Hey, 664 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:04,719 Speaker 6: that guy's a legend right there.

They don't like us. 717 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 3: So yeah, I trust me. I realize I am in 718 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:43,479 Speaker 3: the minority, and I can understand why people want to 719 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 3: watch six o'clock Sports Center and see their team's highlights, yeah, 720 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 3: or you know whatever they pan Do you know Brian 721 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 3: Windhorse on the set or you know who JJ Watt 722 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 3: from NFL and you want these national people to talk 723 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 3: about I get where people come from. This has just 724 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 3: never been my thing, So like, you know, why do 725 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 3: I care what Aaron Murray the former Georgia quarterbacker, David Pollock, 726 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 3: the former george who's playing Monday Night? That's a bar, Kevin, Yeah, talk, 727 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 3: that's all. And who played last year on Monday Night? 728 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 3: And who played the year before on Monday Night? How 729 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 3: many SEC teams played in that game? 730 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 8: Zero? 731 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 3: So I just don't I don't have any cares close. 732 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 2: I could get to Mark's buzzer without putting it in there. 733 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 3: So I'm still trying to wrap my mind around the 734 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 3: amount of buck nuts Mark scrabbing on Sunday. You're still 735 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 3: coming over, right, Kevin? I checked out? Not anymore, man, 736 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 3: I'm gonna have to whip out my catcher. Here's a question. 737 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 1: Kevin suddenly has a dentist appointment on Sunday evening. 738 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 3: Well, here's a question for you. 739 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 6: I've been kicking this around myself and you would know 740 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 6: better than me, and the listeners would too as well, 741 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 6: so feel free to chime in you all. But if 742 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 6: you could pick one EU player to add to this team, 743 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 6: I don't know, favorite or best, whatever, who would you 744 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 6: from the past? Yeah, from the past. I probably venture 745 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 6: to say they can't be from the future. Yeah, I 746 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 6: thought about this like Man or someone you'd think deserves 747 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 6: to have a chance to have won a national champ 748 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 6: whatever the case. 749 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 3: We threw out some random VYU players a couple weeks back, 750 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 3: and I remember up the name of Jamie Curlew. I 751 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 3: thought he was a really good solid pass rusher for 752 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 3: this team. And if you want to play the Stephen 753 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 3: Daily injury, yeah, I mean, Indio's D line is still 754 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,960 Speaker 3: obviously great. But you know, if we're gonna be totally honest, James, 755 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 3: from a historical standpoint, this team probably you know, checks 756 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 3: the box for a lot of the best player at 757 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 3: said sort of positions. 758 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,479 Speaker 6: Yeah, I thought, Antoine, I'm like, boy, could you imagine 759 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 6: him right off? 760 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 3: You know, as as a gadget player. I was speaking 761 00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 3: of gadget plays, you know, one of the plays we 762 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 3: haven't really talked about from the Peach Bowl third down 763 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 3: and they threw the ball to Dangelo Ponds and that's 764 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 3: I'm not talking Dante More throwing the ball to him 765 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 3: like the Danseel Pond's on offense and Kurt Signetti. It 766 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 3: was kind of a clip that I don't part of 767 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 3: me was like, should we pay more attention to what 768 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 3: he just said? There or not. But he said something 769 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 3: earlier in the week to the effect of, like, yeah, 770 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,479 Speaker 3: you know, D'Angelo is one of our quicker twitch a fleets. 771 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 3: We felt like, given who we were playing, that made 772 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 3: sense on a third down he was a high school 773 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 3: quarterback and we'll see if there's anything more there. And 774 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 3: I'm like, did he just say that to try and 775 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 3: make Miami spend a little bit more prep time? Or 776 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 3: on Monday night, could we see D'Angelo ponds again on 777 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 3: the offensive side of the ball. 778 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 6: I think it's twofold. I think you could see him again. 779 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 6: I'm not saying we're going to see him line up 780 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 6: for ten snaps on offense, but yeah, I do think 781 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 6: that's an interesting kind of cat and mouths game that 782 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:31,280 Speaker 6: Kurtz Signetty kind of put out there. 783 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 3: And it's probably. 784 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 6: Smart because I mean, at this point, you're pulling out 785 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 6: all of the stops. You want to make sure that 786 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 6: you have the other team's full attention, and you're probably 787 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 6: trying to put so much on their plate to have 788 00:33:44,200 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 6: to account for. And we know if you blink, if 789 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 6: you falter, this team usually will crush you. 790 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 1: I was thinking about your initial question, what about a 791 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 1: special teams edition, Tevin Coleman. 792 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 2: Bring him back. I know he's a running but bring 793 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 2: him back to return kicks. 794 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 3: Great player, but I like those running backs right now. 795 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 1: Well I'm talking about but use him as as a 796 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:11,880 Speaker 1: return specialist. Sure, because yeah, when you to your point though, 797 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: when you look up and down the two sides of 798 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,959 Speaker 1: the ball, there's they're complete. Man, Like, where's the big 799 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:20,400 Speaker 1: weakness right now? Maybe one injury from a couple of 800 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,359 Speaker 1: weeks ago after the game, maybe as CJ. West put 801 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,360 Speaker 1: him on the front of a defensive line. 802 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 6: You were right on it, though, with the Steven Daily 803 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 6: injury probably being the one they could absorb the most, 804 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 6: because I don't know, I sit up here act like 805 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 6: this guy wasn't an amazing player. Is an amazing player. 806 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 6: That would be a huge loss for most teams. And 807 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,280 Speaker 6: they've kind of just kept humming along because of their depth, 808 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 6: which is another testament to the way they've constructed their team. 809 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 3: You know, I think one question I have for Monday 810 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 3: is just you know, if you are looking at from 811 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 3: the Miami side of things, Indiana has broken the will 812 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 3: of these last two opponents in the first half. Can 813 00:34:56,320 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 3: a team just get in phase within the game against 814 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,320 Speaker 3: Indiana because like you know, when you look at the 815 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 3: IU schedule this year, there are games Ohio State, Iowa, 816 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 3: Penn State, there are games, you know, even the first 817 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,600 Speaker 3: Oregon game. You know, there are these games where like 818 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 3: it's back and forth and it could have gone either way. 819 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 3: You know, is there Alabama and Oregon like didn't even 820 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 3: sniff that, you know, is there any like for Miami 821 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 3: to have a chance. It's like, can they get to 822 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 3: halftime and breathe, can they get to halftime and you know, 823 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 3: make it whatever a four point game and they get 824 00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 3: the ball to start the third quarter. You know, I 825 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 3: think that is just priority number one for you know, 826 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,359 Speaker 3: any sort of upset here. And you know, again, James, 827 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:41,799 Speaker 3: I think it might have been Dan berglar on your 828 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:43,840 Speaker 3: Guys site. You know he is Reuben bain A is 829 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,600 Speaker 3: a top ten pick. He's got the offensive tackle my 830 00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 3: I think it is as a top ten pick. He's 831 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 3: got the other pass rusher going in round one as well, 832 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,800 Speaker 3: a key mesidor so, you know when you look at it, 833 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:57,840 Speaker 3: and Taylor Tannebom brought this up with us earlier in 834 00:35:57,840 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 3: the week. You know that I think is the one 835 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:04,879 Speaker 3: area of blueprint that is possible for Miami is if 836 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 3: you are not able to run the football super effectively, 837 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,320 Speaker 3: which Indiana seemingly run it well every game this season, 838 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:12,800 Speaker 3: and you get into some of those third and longs, 839 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 3: does Mendoza find it in a little crack to scramble? 840 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 3: Is that not there against Bain, against Mesidor, because that's 841 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 3: been Miami's thing. And you know, again Taylor brought up 842 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 3: with us the higher highest pressure rate of any team 843 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 3: Indiana's faced all season. I think that's kind of the 844 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,239 Speaker 3: one area I keep on coming back to. You know, 845 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 3: is this going to be more competitive in the fourth 846 00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 3: quarter than certainly the first two games here of this 847 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:34,759 Speaker 3: playoff run. 848 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,439 Speaker 1: It's uh, it's going to be fascinating to see if 849 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 1: Indiana finish this is off in the same manner that 850 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:45,080 Speaker 1: they beat Alabama, that they beat Oregon. They could cover 851 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:47,760 Speaker 1: that eight and a half. I mean, do you start 852 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 1: talking about them. I know, we saw a great team 853 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 1: recently with LSU and Joe Burrow. Do we if they 854 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 1: go sixteen to zero and they dominate every single game 855 00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,160 Speaker 1: in the College Football Playoff, do you start to talking 856 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:01,719 Speaker 1: about them as one of the better teams of all 857 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 1: time in college football. 858 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll be honest, I haven't taken like a super 859 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 3: close look at that. I would assume that you would 860 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 3: just certainly the sixteen game nature is different than obviously 861 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 3: what past college teams it was. I think I did 862 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,880 Speaker 3: see something where that LSU team beat four quarterbacks that 863 00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:22,240 Speaker 3: are currently in the NFL playoffs, which is kind of wild. 864 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 3: On that run there, I forget Hurts and Lawrence, and 865 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 3: I forget who the other. I think Jordan Love might 866 00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 3: have been one of them. So yeah, again, part of 867 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 3: me that's like, we're when you do that, you're like 868 00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:40,279 Speaker 3: inevitably nitpicking an exceptional team. I think I'll just be 869 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,320 Speaker 3: content and celebrating in Indiana is a great, great, great 870 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:44,240 Speaker 3: national champion. 871 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:46,480 Speaker 6: Isn't that a great situation to be in. It's not 872 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 6: when we talk about owners, Kevin, we're talking about like 873 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 6: who's cash poor as an NFL owner. 874 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 3: Timber telling you all in the media room, I would. 875 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,279 Speaker 6: Love to be the brokest NFL owner, what a. 876 00:37:56,160 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 3: Great Probably love to be the worst national champion exactly exactly. 877 00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:03,480 Speaker 1: You know, we talk about Indiana defensively, their statistics, and 878 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,680 Speaker 1: we all talk about the Heisman Trophy, Winter Mendoza and 879 00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 1: those great receivers and the not just a couple of 880 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 1: running backs. But you know, even early in the season 881 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 1: when they bring in their reserves, guys were playing well. 882 00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: But that defense, it's becoming historic, James. They are second 883 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,239 Speaker 1: in the nation in points allowed, They are second in 884 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:27,560 Speaker 1: the nation in rushing yards allowed per game, and saying, 885 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 1: you know, same thing in passing like, they're only giving 886 00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:31,360 Speaker 1: up a little over two hundred and eighty yards a 887 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 1: game total offense average for the entire season. 888 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:36,360 Speaker 2: That's nothing in college football. 889 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's hard to score against them. And to Kevin's 890 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 6: point from earlier this week, when you turn the ball 891 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,960 Speaker 6: over or get them to turn the ball over on 892 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,360 Speaker 6: the first drive of the game, done that five times 893 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 6: this year with five what first drive interceptions, Kevin, That 894 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:54,320 Speaker 6: usually will get you a little antsy and get you 895 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 6: off your rocker. 896 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 897 00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 1: And in case you're wondering too, For whatever it's worth, 898 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,719 Speaker 1: as they watch on TV Monday night, the Ohio State 899 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 1: buck guys lead the nation in yards allowed per game. 900 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 1: They only allowed two hundred and eineteen yards a game 901 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 1: the entire season. 902 00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 6: Well, they can hold on to that while IU has 903 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:15,759 Speaker 6: a chance to add one more trophy the big one 904 00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 6: to their case. 905 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 1: Well, IU was fourth, so they weren't too far behind. 906 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:23,279 Speaker 1: But that's gonna be worth watching. Miami, a long time 907 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,440 Speaker 1: heavyweight in college football against Indiana. And I made the 908 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 1: analogy a minute ago James old money versus new money. 909 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 1: Sometimes the O money doesn't like to make way. But 910 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:31,759 Speaker 1: it kind of feels like new money is going to 911 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:33,319 Speaker 1: be here for a while, doesn't it. 912 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a different game. And to be honest, it's 913 00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 6: crazy that I you not I'm sorry not IU, but 914 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:42,919 Speaker 6: the U was one of the juggernauts for so long, 915 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 6: but they haven't won a national championship I believe since 916 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:48,000 Speaker 6: the only two thousands, so it's been quite a while 917 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 6: from them amid their drought. And I get I used 918 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,799 Speaker 6: on totally different stratusphere when it comes to droughts and 919 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,440 Speaker 6: not having success and all that. But yeah, it's kind 920 00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 6: of crazy that they really Miami's they haven't been the 921 00:39:58,400 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 6: Miami of old. 922 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:01,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, And for those going to the game, keep this 923 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 2: in mind. 924 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:04,640 Speaker 1: And I've seen this on social media a bunch, and 925 00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:06,960 Speaker 1: I've even seen it from people who went to the 926 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 1: it's been a while, but they went to the Colts 927 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 1: Super Bowl win game, getting out of that stadium after game, 928 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:16,719 Speaker 1: it's it's even getting in. 929 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 2: Sometimes it's a nightmare. 930 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:19,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's been a while since I've been there, but 931 00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 3: it was a zoo, is all I remember last time 932 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:23,800 Speaker 3: I was there. I just remember it being an absolute zoo. 933 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,799 Speaker 3: So I have a feeling there'll be some sort of 934 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:28,919 Speaker 3: u fork state that you won't care too too much. 935 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 3: But yes, playing ahead as much as possible.

Good morning, Rake. 1022 00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,879 Speaker 1: I know we've talked about it for what fifteen games 1023 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 1: in a row, coming up on sixteen games, but is 1024 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,239 Speaker 1: it still kind of a pinch me moment for an 1025 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,239 Speaker 1: Indiana native to see the Hoosiers undefeated and playing in 1026 00:43:58,280 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 1: the CFP Championship. 1027 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 7: That's the case for everybody, And there have been a 1028 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:06,960 Speaker 7: lot of there's a lot of garbage in terms of 1029 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 7: social media about this game, but there's also been some 1030 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:11,560 Speaker 7: really good stories from those that actually know how to 1031 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:17,080 Speaker 7: write in terms of just kind of watching the Indiana 1032 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 7: fan base walk around and soak this up and take 1033 00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:24,440 Speaker 7: it all in at the Rose Bowl, at the Peach Bowl. 1034 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,920 Speaker 7: And I'm sure the same thing will be happening in 1035 00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:30,759 Speaker 7: South Florida over the course of this weekend, just going 1036 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:34,240 Speaker 7: I can't believe this is our state. I can't believe 1037 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:37,360 Speaker 7: this is our team. I can't believe we are having 1038 00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:41,759 Speaker 7: this conversation. So yes, that new car smell has not 1039 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,320 Speaker 7: left this story yet. As far as the Indiana Hoosiers 1040 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 7: are concerned, Well, how about. 1041 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 3: This part of your break? 1042 00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 6: Because when I think of you, there is the tendency 1043 00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:54,040 Speaker 6: to think, oh my gosh, there's a Cinderella element. They've 1044 00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:56,880 Speaker 6: never been here before. But also that feels more like 1045 00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 6: last year. This year it feels more like King Can. 1046 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:02,759 Speaker 6: They're just a dominant team. So how do you feel 1047 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:04,799 Speaker 6: about that balance when You're looking at a team that 1048 00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:08,880 Speaker 6: historically hasn't been here, but this season has clearly proven 1049 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:09,640 Speaker 6: they should be here. 1050 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:13,120 Speaker 7: Yeah, they went from Jane t Tarzana real quick, didn't 1051 00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:18,560 Speaker 7: they tru I mean it is the fan base is 1052 00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:22,400 Speaker 7: the Cinderella story, is the underdog story. The team is 1053 00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 7: just gonna kick your backside. That's just what they do. 1054 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:29,680 Speaker 7: And the ultimate example of that was the Oregon game 1055 00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:32,319 Speaker 7: a week ago. Because we talked about it leading into 1056 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,759 Speaker 7: that contest. You know, hey, I think this is going 1057 00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 7: to be a closer games because Oregon has at least 1058 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:40,280 Speaker 7: seen this. Oregon kind of has an idea what's coming. 1059 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:44,319 Speaker 7: And didn't matter point that Indiana is up forty two 1060 00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 7: to seven in the middle of the third quarter in 1061 00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:48,800 Speaker 7: that game against the top five team in the country 1062 00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:52,640 Speaker 7: that had played you before. It's supposed to be you know, 1063 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:54,400 Speaker 7: tougher for the same team to win, to get the 1064 00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 7: second game the second time around, right, It wasn't, And 1065 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 7: so no Indiana play. He's such a physical style of football, 1066 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:07,160 Speaker 7: it is it is. It's hard to have that Cinderella 1067 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 7: tag when you have beaten people physically and on the 1068 00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 7: scoreboard the way that Indiana has this year. 1069 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:14,440 Speaker 3: That is the one and only Greg greg shows with 1070 00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:17,120 Speaker 3: us here on the Payless Slickers hotline.

It 1116 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:24,759 Speaker 1: feels like usual suspects, at least for what we've had 1117 00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:25,720 Speaker 1: the last couple of years. 1118 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 7: Yeah, Pike and Lawrence North are the favorites in the games. 1119 00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:30,880 Speaker 7: You know, there was kind of an open quarter of 1120 00:48:30,920 --> 00:48:34,000 Speaker 7: the bracket where Park Tutor comes from, and part park 1121 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 7: Tutor is the last non mixed team to win the 1122 00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:40,640 Speaker 7: Marian County tournament. They wanted back to back years kind 1123 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:42,560 Speaker 7: of at the tail end of their great runs when 1124 00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:46,520 Speaker 7: Trayvon Blewod and Jared Jackson obviously a couple of pretty 1125 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:50,160 Speaker 7: decent players that were part of those great teams, kind 1126 00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:52,960 Speaker 7: of mid two thousand teams. Since then, it's been a 1127 00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:55,920 Speaker 7: rotation of different mixed school There are three teams that 1128 00:48:55,920 --> 00:49:00,800 Speaker 7: are the mixed schools, and so part Tutor will play tonight, 1129 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:04,600 Speaker 7: Pike will play LC Else, kind of a mild upset 1130 00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:07,239 Speaker 7: of Ben Davis on Wednesday night snapping what was a 1131 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:10,719 Speaker 7: ten game Ben Davis winning. Shriek Else has a lot 1132 00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 7: of talent. They're a frankly better team than their record 1133 00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:17,759 Speaker 7: would indicate, but clear favorite tonight Pike in LN. Who 1134 00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:20,320 Speaker 7: are the two Marion County teams in the four A 1135 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:24,040 Speaker 7: top ten. They should meet each other in tomorrow night's 1136 00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:27,200 Speaker 7: championship game, which you can see on my NDTV twenty 1137 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:28,399 Speaker 7: three at seven o'clock in the WORL. 1138 00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:31,840 Speaker 1: Well done, hey, greg one on our high school note, 1139 00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:35,799 Speaker 1: we saw Chris Hawkins break Ray Crow's all time wins 1140 00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:38,560 Speaker 1: record at the school at Chris pas Addics this past week. 1141 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:40,000 Speaker 2: Just talk about what. 1142 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,480 Speaker 1: That kind of of a mark means and what that 1143 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:43,480 Speaker 1: program has been up to. 1144 00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 7: Well, it shows you how successful they have been. And 1145 00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:51,200 Speaker 7: they had a five year run in four A where 1146 00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:53,920 Speaker 7: they can never get out of a sectional, but frankly, 1147 00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:57,040 Speaker 7: they accomplished a lot like a couple of the city championships, 1148 00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:01,719 Speaker 7: like winning a fantastic during that five year span. Basically 1149 00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:04,279 Speaker 7: lately when they have been in three A, they have 1150 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:06,759 Speaker 7: been a contender for a state championship. I don't know 1151 00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:10,120 Speaker 7: if that's the case this year. They're a good team, 1152 00:50:10,280 --> 00:50:12,880 Speaker 7: but there's probably a little separation more than that has 1153 00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:16,000 Speaker 7: been the last few years between say they and Cathedral, 1154 00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:19,839 Speaker 7: which is whom they compete for city championship, and they're 1155 00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 7: in the same sectional as well. And so that was 1156 00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:25,920 Speaker 7: the team that Cathedral knocked off in the sectional semis 1157 00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:28,680 Speaker 7: last year to make it to a state championship. Chris 1158 00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:31,560 Speaker 7: is also the athletic director at Christmas Attics. He has 1159 00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:35,920 Speaker 7: done a phenomenal job. And while it is the same 1160 00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:39,600 Speaker 7: school and that school celecates the history and lineage of 1161 00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:43,960 Speaker 7: Christmas Addics, obviously it is a different era and story 1162 00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:46,640 Speaker 7: we are talking about because there's so many things that, 1163 00:50:46,719 --> 00:50:51,040 Speaker 7: thank goodness, Christaddics now doesn't have to deal with when 1164 00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:53,680 Speaker 7: ray Crow was the head coach during most of the 1165 00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:57,520 Speaker 7: nineteen fifties. So ray Crow will forever be one of 1166 00:50:57,560 --> 00:51:00,600 Speaker 7: the most historically significant figures in the history of Indiana 1167 00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:04,200 Speaker 7: high school basketball. The fact that Chris Hawkins can be 1168 00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:07,800 Speaker 7: mentioned in the same sentence as him is the ultimate 1169 00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:09,440 Speaker 7: compliment to Chris Hawkins. 1170 00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:13,080 Speaker 3: Rig I used to live next to Christmas Addicts right 1171 00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:16,080 Speaker 3: there in those apartments. I was actually driving by there yesterday. 1172 00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:18,160 Speaker 3: That new football field is damn aggressive. 1173 00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:21,960 Speaker 7: Looks good, right, and so I'm not sure they were 1174 00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 7: able to play any games there this year because the 1175 00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:24,960 Speaker 7: turf was down and I'm not sure there are any 1176 00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:28,000 Speaker 7: bleachers up. But that is one thing that IPS has 1177 00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:30,879 Speaker 7: been doing. If you look around at various IPS facilities, 1178 00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:34,000 Speaker 7: they are getting upgrades. In football, there is a lot 1179 00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:37,640 Speaker 7: of turf that is going in and addicts. Again, they 1180 00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:40,640 Speaker 7: play at a four A level. Have they been competitive 1181 00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:43,520 Speaker 7: in four A postseasons? Not really, but they've been winning 1182 00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:46,920 Speaker 7: more games than they've been losing, so they are slowly 1183 00:51:46,960 --> 00:51:48,960 Speaker 7: building that program the right way downtown. 1184 00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:51,600 Speaker 1: Always good to talk to you, buddy. It's fun and 1185 00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:54,240 Speaker 1: we'll keep an eye on maybe cruising through the channels, 1186 00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:56,640 Speaker 1: maybe stop and see some of the stuff you're doing tonight. 1187 00:51:56,920 --> 00:52:00,160 Speaker 1: I like watching kids achieve and excel. It's fun. 1188 00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:00,560 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1189 00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:02,719 Speaker 7: Last year was the first time that it was competed 1190 00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:07,239 Speaker 7: under the official IHSA offices. And looking forward to doing 1191 00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:08,840 Speaker 7: again to night at the Courts e A Coliseum. 1192 00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:09,359 Speaker 8: Thank you much. 1193 00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:11,080 Speaker 1: All right, there he is Greg greg Stor joining us 1194 00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:15,040 Speaker 1: on the Payless Liquors Hotline. And one of the reasons 1195 00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:18,000 Speaker 1: I've brought up Chris Hawkins the last couple of days, guys, 1196 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,560 Speaker 1: is just because I wanted to kind of go back 1197 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:23,880 Speaker 1: to raycro because it's still Have you ever seen that documentary, yes, 1198 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:24,279 Speaker 1: on Chrism. 1199 00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 2: Have you have you been able to see that James. 1200 00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:32,239 Speaker 1: Yes, fantastic stuff there. Yeah, fantastic stuff. So that's what's 1201 00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 1: going on in terms of local high school sports and 1202 00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:37,319 Speaker 1: stuff this past weekend. How do you feel about the 1203 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:41,040 Speaker 1: underbing two for NCAA teams and greg at this point 1204 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 1: not vibing with Notre Dame at this point time, But 1205 00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:45,000 Speaker 1: I think you ask a good question too. 1206 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:47,319 Speaker 2: Is Indiana going to get in? They still got some 1207 00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:47,680 Speaker 2: work to do. 1208 00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:49,239 Speaker 3: Many shut out. I know we had a listener in 1209 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:52,280 Speaker 3: the YouTube chat his daughter as a wrestler for buff 1210 00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:54,560 Speaker 3: heading out score to have a coliseum tonight to the 1211 00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:58,359 Speaker 3: State Fairgrounds for the girls wrestling state championships. Braves will 1212 00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:02,080 Speaker 3: be a busy night over there off of Fall Creek 1213 00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:05,800 Speaker 3: and Benford. Yeah. Boy, I as much as I'd like 1214 00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:09,799 Speaker 3: to push back against Rake, I would honestly say when 1215 00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:11,160 Speaker 3: I set the over under two and a half, the 1216 00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:12,800 Speaker 3: other number in my head was one and a half. 1217 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:15,640 Speaker 3: I mean, if you look at it right now, Butler 1218 00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:18,360 Speaker 3: is leaking. First off, Notre Dame is well outside of 1219 00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:20,319 Speaker 3: that picture. They need to do a lot to get 1220 00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:24,320 Speaker 3: back into it even without their best player. Butler is 1221 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:26,960 Speaker 3: leaking oil. They have gone from a team during the 1222 00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:29,160 Speaker 3: non conference in the tournament to a team that I 1223 00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:31,040 Speaker 3: think would be out if we had to fill out 1224 00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:34,440 Speaker 3: a bracket today. And right now, Indiana I think is 1225 00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:37,719 Speaker 3: sitting square. It feels like an annual conversation we have 1226 00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:41,600 Speaker 3: with Indiana. They are sitting squarely on the bubble. So 1227 00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:44,160 Speaker 3: and then we don't even get into the mid majors, 1228 00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:47,640 Speaker 3: and you know, rough estimate, I don't know if any 1229 00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:50,719 Speaker 3: of the mid majors, you know, our position right now 1230 00:53:50,719 --> 00:53:53,040 Speaker 3: in their conference to be you know, part of that 1231 00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:55,320 Speaker 3: automatic bid. But you know, we know how those tournaments 1232 00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:57,480 Speaker 3: can be a bit of a crapshoot. So you know, 1233 00:53:57,640 --> 00:53:59,799 Speaker 3: just from the major schools in the state, I mean 1234 00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:04,120 Speaker 3: obviously perdue, but boy, I don't yeah, I don't even 1235 00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:06,319 Speaker 3: know if i'd go too right now. Well, well, you know, 1236 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:08,400 Speaker 3: indian is gonna have opportunities, but at some point they 1237 00:54:08,440 --> 00:54:11,759 Speaker 3: got to start turning those opportunities into actual wins. And 1238 00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:14,279 Speaker 3: Sunday or Saturday will be another chance that those are 1239 00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:17,480 Speaker 3: two kind of reeling teams right now, Indiana and Iowa. 1240 00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:20,759 Speaker 3: I think I was lost three in a row. You know, 1241 00:54:20,800 --> 00:54:23,359 Speaker 3: Indiana again has not been an NCAA tournament team all year, 1242 00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:27,080 Speaker 3: so that will be an important one. Two o'clock inside 1243 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:28,280 Speaker 3: of the Hall on Saturday. 1244 00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:31,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, and the one thing about Butler, if they could 1245 00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:32,880 Speaker 1: turn around and they can kind of get together. Being 1246 00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:34,680 Speaker 1: in the Big East, They've got lots of opportunities to 1247 00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:36,359 Speaker 1: get some quality wins if they can kind of pull 1248 00:54:36,360 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 1: it together there, Kevin. 1249 00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 3: Instead, there's opportunities and as many as other conferences, you know, 1250 00:54:41,200 --> 00:54:42,960 Speaker 3: not as many, certainly as the Big Ten. I mean, 1251 00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 3: Saturday is one of them. At Seaton Hall is a 1252 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:50,520 Speaker 3: legit resume opportunity. But you know, Marquette is horrific this season. 1253 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:52,640 Speaker 3: You know, they're a team that typically you would have. 1254 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:55,400 Speaker 3: You know, Creighton isn't the same old Creighton. And obviously 1255 00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:57,759 Speaker 3: Butler already lost on the road there, so you know 1256 00:54:57,800 --> 00:54:59,560 Speaker 3: their hall is rolling. By the way, I want to say, 1257 00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:02,560 Speaker 3: the only maybe three games all year they gave, they 1258 00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:04,799 Speaker 3: gave Yukon everything that could handle. Speaking of Yukon mark, 1259 00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:06,920 Speaker 3: do you have that Dan Hurley clip. This was on 1260 00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:10,040 Speaker 3: Braylon Mullens And for those that didn't watch at Yukon 1261 00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:13,600 Speaker 3: Seaton Hall game, Braylon Mullens had a huge block with 1262 00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:17,080 Speaker 3: seton Hall down three late in the game. I hope 1263 00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:20,400 Speaker 3: the audio quality is decent. Enough here. This is Dan Hurley. 1264 00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:24,439 Speaker 3: He was joining Jeff Goodman's podcast after that Seaton Hall 1265 00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:27,800 Speaker 3: game and shared some thoughts on Braylon Mullens. 1266 00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:32,680 Speaker 10: Yeah, man, he's just Indiana boy. You know, he just 1267 00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:35,120 Speaker 10: wants to like shoot hoops, play hoops. 1268 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:36,600 Speaker 8: Draco. 1269 00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:38,600 Speaker 10: I don't know if he's on theer age, so I 1270 00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:42,360 Speaker 10: don't know, but you know, it's. 1271 00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:47,480 Speaker 8: Just a ballplayer that just you know, he's not like you. 1272 00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:51,200 Speaker 10: He's not like a drama queen freshman that could sink 1273 00:55:51,239 --> 00:55:55,080 Speaker 10: your team because of you know, the pre draft agent or. 1274 00:55:55,080 --> 00:55:57,480 Speaker 8: Any of that type of stuff going on around your team. 1275 00:55:57,800 --> 00:56:01,960 Speaker 10: And you know, and the guy, you know as a 1276 00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:05,680 Speaker 10: reliable defensive player, you know, like and like he's in 1277 00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:06,560 Speaker 10: the right spots. 1278 00:56:07,080 --> 00:56:08,960 Speaker 8: Eventually, as the year goes. 1279 00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:10,880 Speaker 10: On, I think he's gonna be like a good defender, 1280 00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:14,560 Speaker 10: a real good defender, you know. And again, tonight was 1281 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:16,520 Speaker 10: a grimy game, you know, like he was gonna have 1282 00:56:16,520 --> 00:56:19,680 Speaker 10: to score hard, tough points in the paint are at 1283 00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:24,759 Speaker 10: the rim. But he's just like a simple dude, man, 1284 00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:29,160 Speaker 10: And it's just it's just a simple guy. 1285 00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:29,520 Speaker 8: You know. 1286 00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:32,520 Speaker 10: It's like a not complicated man. It just comes in. 1287 00:56:32,560 --> 00:56:35,680 Speaker 10: He lets you coach him. Yes, sir, No, sir, sorry, coach, yes, coach. 1288 00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:38,440 Speaker 10: Those are the type of freshmen you got to bring in. 1289 00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:43,080 Speaker 2: High praise for a freshman from Dan Hurley, I'm. 1290 00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:45,640 Speaker 6: Not surprised about it at all. A kid is an 1291 00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:49,120 Speaker 6: absolute stud. Saw in play several times last year. Like 1292 00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:51,160 Speaker 6: I always say, when it calls six or seven bucks, 1293 00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:54,160 Speaker 6: he's an NBA player. And I think it took me, 1294 00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:59,399 Speaker 6: no joke, you all probably about two minutes to realize that. 1295 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:01,600 Speaker 6: And I've seen a lot of high school kids through 1296 00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:03,680 Speaker 6: the years. I'm sure you all have as well, but 1297 00:57:04,520 --> 00:57:06,600 Speaker 6: he was one of the few that I immediately saw. I 1298 00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:07,800 Speaker 6: was like, oh, that's a pro, Like you're going to 1299 00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:09,920 Speaker 6: get paid to play the sport at some level, and 1300 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:10,960 Speaker 6: likely in the NBA. 1301 00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:12,200 Speaker 3: Not just because of the shooting. 1302 00:57:12,239 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 6: There's a lot of good shooters out there, but it's 1303 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:16,360 Speaker 6: the shooting, the size, and honestly the athleticism. 1304 00:57:16,360 --> 00:57:18,120 Speaker 3: You talk about the block. He can jump. 1305 00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:20,760 Speaker 6: I mean there were a couple of times where he 1306 00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:22,440 Speaker 6: comes to the lane and you're thinking, Oh, he's just 1307 00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:24,560 Speaker 6: a pretty boy jump shooter. 1308 00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:26,600 Speaker 3: No, he will dunk on you or something like that. 1309 00:57:26,760 --> 00:57:29,800 Speaker 6: So all of those factors are pretty cool, and I 1310 00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:32,200 Speaker 6: think it's also a testament to not to go to 1311 00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:34,720 Speaker 6: the soapbox too much. But so many of these kids 1312 00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,400 Speaker 6: that are that talented Kevin, You've seen it, They transfer, 1313 00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:40,640 Speaker 6: they go to the prep school. He stayed in his hometown, 1314 00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:44,280 Speaker 6: play for his local team and gave his city something to. 1315 00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:45,680 Speaker 3: Be product that they wouldn't be proud of if he 1316 00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:46,360 Speaker 3: went elsewhere. 1317 00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:49,480 Speaker 6: But to have like the regular kind of four year 1318 00:57:49,520 --> 00:57:51,480 Speaker 6: experience with the guys you grew up with, when he's 1319 00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:54,360 Speaker 6: clearly head and shoulders better than anybody else I saw 1320 00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:56,440 Speaker 6: in the state last year, I mean outside of Luke 1321 00:57:56,480 --> 00:57:58,720 Speaker 6: Eardl who's going to Purdue, a hell of a player 1322 00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:00,840 Speaker 6: in his own right. Was cool to see and I'm 1323 00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:03,280 Speaker 6: glad he's having that success. And also just keep in 1324 00:58:03,320 --> 00:58:06,120 Speaker 6: mind he keeps playing like this, there's a good chance 1325 00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:08,600 Speaker 6: he's won and done like that's how talented he is. 1326 00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:12,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, speaking of the Mullins, speaking of the Jungles, speaking 1327 00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:14,360 Speaker 3: of the Jags, you know his dad obviously it was 1328 00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:16,080 Speaker 3: on one of those one of the best teams in 1329 00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:18,160 Speaker 3: program history. If he have the best team over there 1330 00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:21,880 Speaker 3: at Ipui, boy, just yes, incredibly high praise, especially in 1331 00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:25,360 Speaker 3: today's climate, Like you don't hear coaches offer that much 1332 00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:27,720 Speaker 3: up on the five seeds, you know he's not offering 1333 00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:31,080 Speaker 3: it like that anyway. He's as hard knows his day, say, 1334 00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:33,200 Speaker 3: Dan Hurley's not handed that out. Just to hand that out. 1335 00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:37,120 Speaker 3: And you know, when you think about Yukon for those 1336 00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:39,600 Speaker 3: that haven't been following them to too close. The first off, 1337 00:58:39,600 --> 00:58:42,440 Speaker 3: Bradley Mollons averaging double figures. Yeah, an ankle injury sideline 1338 00:58:42,520 --> 00:58:44,120 Speaker 3: him for about the first few weeks of the season. 1339 00:58:44,560 --> 00:58:47,120 Speaker 3: Uh really when they played at Kansas earlier this season, 1340 00:58:47,160 --> 00:58:49,320 Speaker 3: that was kind of his early coming out party. But 1341 00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:50,800 Speaker 3: he's been a double figure score for one of the 1342 00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:53,120 Speaker 3: best teams in college basketball. I believe their game at 1343 00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:56,400 Speaker 3: Hinkle is sometime in February. So if you're looking to 1344 00:58:56,440 --> 00:58:59,120 Speaker 3: see Yukon and Braylan Mullens come here, I want to 1345 00:58:59,120 --> 00:59:02,840 Speaker 3: say that's a Wednesday in February. But you know, obviously 1346 00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:06,240 Speaker 3: Purdue will dominate the storylines from a local standpoint, trying 1347 00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:08,760 Speaker 3: to make the trip here to win four games in 1348 00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:11,560 Speaker 3: March and call Lucas Oil home that first week April. 1349 00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:13,919 Speaker 3: You could have Braylen Mullins and the Yukon Huskies as 1350 00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:17,320 Speaker 3: one of those teams as well. So, yeah, I thought 1351 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:19,360 Speaker 3: that was a great clip from Dan Hurley in some 1352 00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:21,480 Speaker 3: high high praise for the mister basketball last year. 1353 00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:24,200 Speaker 6: How about these shooting splits forty eight percent from the field, 1354 00:59:24,600 --> 00:59:27,480 Speaker 6: thirty eight percent from three, eighty two percent from the 1355 00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:31,760 Speaker 6: line that usually does not happen for anybody in college basketball, 1356 00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:33,880 Speaker 6: had alone a freshmen, so talented kid. 1357 00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:36,360 Speaker 1: All right, coming up in a moment, we'll talk to 1358 00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:39,160 Speaker 1: Matt Taylor as well, get his thoughts on the NFL playoffs. 1359 00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:43,600 Speaker 2: But right now, Mark, let's check it down avoiding shutout. 1360 00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:47,960 Speaker 9: Drought to you by the Barbosol Horizon League Basketball Championships 1361 00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:55,960 Speaker 9: Mars Stars here the Barbersol Horizon League Basketball Championships, line chans, 1362 00:59:56,040 --> 01:00:00,560 Speaker 9: tickets and more at Horisonleague dot com slash Indeed, Yeah, we. 1363 01:00:00,560 --> 01:00:02,480 Speaker 1: Got a lot of college basketball coming up this weekend 1364 01:00:02,480 --> 01:00:04,800 Speaker 1: as well.

IU takes on 1374 01:00:32,360 --> 01:00:34,959 Speaker 1: Miami the Hoosiers eight and a half point favorites. Right now, 1375 01:00:35,080 --> 01:00:37,000 Speaker 1: How do you feel about the forty seven and a 1376 01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:38,360 Speaker 1: half under over total? 1377 01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:40,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, part of me thinks a little bit more on 1378 01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:44,400 Speaker 3: an under given these defenses. So yeah, if I had 1379 01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:46,000 Speaker 3: to go one way on that, I'd probably go a 1380 01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:46,560 Speaker 3: little under. 1381 01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:48,720 Speaker 2: All right, where are you at on that? You think 1382 01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:50,320 Speaker 2: I scoring game? Post doing game? 1383 01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:53,920 Speaker 6: I'll take the over two pretty good defenses, I know. 1384 01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:55,960 Speaker 6: But I just feel like every time I say that 1385 01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:57,960 Speaker 6: about college football, there's gonna be some kid who has 1386 01:00:58,000 --> 01:01:00,720 Speaker 6: some crazy bust and it's just like, well, there you go, 1387 01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:01,720 Speaker 6: so true? 1388 01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:02,280 Speaker 2: All right. 1389 01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:05,840 Speaker 1: Also tonight NBA, the Pacers will host the Pelicans. Pacers 1390 01:01:05,880 --> 01:01:07,920 Speaker 1: have won three of the last four, despite losing the 1391 01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:11,240 Speaker 1: last game. Benedic Matherin has missed the past six games, 1392 01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:14,800 Speaker 1: so that's sprained right thumb. Pelicans not exactly rolling in 1393 01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:16,720 Speaker 1: on fire. They are two and eleven in their last 1394 01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:21,680 Speaker 1: thirteen games, both teams respectively in last place in their conferences. 1395 01:01:22,120 --> 01:01:25,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, Matherin's still out, which again we're now less than 1396 01:01:25,080 --> 01:01:26,960 Speaker 3: three weeks away from the trade deadline. And boy, I'm 1397 01:01:27,400 --> 01:01:30,200 Speaker 3: thoughts with Isaiah Jackson. This concussion is no joke. He 1398 01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:33,440 Speaker 3: continues to be out. He has missed a lot of 1399 01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:34,440 Speaker 3: time here, and. 1400 01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:36,920 Speaker 6: If I'm not mistaken, if this happened to him before, 1401 01:01:37,320 --> 01:01:39,600 Speaker 6: I believe that he had a concussion before that kept 1402 01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:41,280 Speaker 6: him out for quite a long time. 1403 01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:43,640 Speaker 3: And you know, the Pelicans actually have some intriguing you know, 1404 01:01:43,720 --> 01:01:47,600 Speaker 3: Zion Williamson, Trey Murphy, great great young player, and Derek 1405 01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:50,360 Speaker 3: Queen remember the Maryland Remember the game winner he had 1406 01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:53,360 Speaker 3: against Colorida State. You know, he has had a nice 1407 01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:56,080 Speaker 3: rookie season so well. You don't see the Pacers as a 1408 01:01:56,120 --> 01:01:58,760 Speaker 3: three and a half point favorite very often this season. Granted, 1409 01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:02,479 Speaker 3: as Jeff alluded to, standings wise, this is a game 1410 01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:05,360 Speaker 3: that will definitely impact some of that draft order, or 1411 01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:06,800 Speaker 3: I should say the lottery odds. 1412 01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:08,760 Speaker 1: All right, you can listen to that one tonight on 1413 01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:10,959 Speaker 1: ninety three five and one oh seven five the Fan, 1414 01:02:11,720 --> 01:02:14,400 Speaker 1: and then tomorrow if you want more Pacers Pacers. 1415 01:02:13,960 --> 01:02:17,040 Speaker 2: Weekly with Pat Boylan, that one at ten a m. 1416 01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:19,200 Speaker 3: At the Pistons tomorrow, by the way, back to back 1417 01:02:19,240 --> 01:02:19,800 Speaker 3: for the Pacers. 1418 01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:23,800 Speaker 1: Nobles Bill Voom, the Noblesville Boom have released Kyle Guy. 1419 01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:30,600 Speaker 1: He wants to pursue some overseas opportunities. Another Indiana legendary 1420 01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:32,760 Speaker 1: high school basketball player there, Fort James. 1421 01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:34,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, he can get buckets. 1422 01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:37,280 Speaker 6: Anytime you come out of retirement to join a team, 1423 01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:39,960 Speaker 6: he immediately become their best player. With the Noblesville Boom, 1424 01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:41,840 Speaker 6: you probably got some game left. 1425 01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:44,520 Speaker 1: All right, there's some NFL action coming up this weekend. 1426 01:02:44,520 --> 01:02:47,320 Speaker 1: Tomorrow Bill's and Broncos in a divisional playoff game. That 1427 01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:50,040 Speaker 1: one goes at four thirty CBS forty nine Ers at Seahawks. 1428 01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:52,320 Speaker 1: That's an eight pm start Tomorrow night at Fox. And 1429 01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:54,439 Speaker 1: then there are a couple of games on Sunday. Mark 1430 01:02:54,480 --> 01:02:57,320 Speaker 1: Texans take on the Patriots in the first one, and 1431 01:02:57,360 --> 01:02:58,520 Speaker 1: who's got the night gap? 1432 01:02:59,080 --> 01:03:00,160 Speaker 3: Rams Bears? Baby? 1433 01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:03,160 Speaker 2: Yeah? And right now, do we like how we feel 1434 01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:04,400 Speaker 2: about the Bears? Yes? 1435 01:03:04,520 --> 01:03:06,560 Speaker 4: How could you not? With how the season's gone. They're 1436 01:03:06,600 --> 01:03:10,040 Speaker 4: never out of any games, so despite looking overmatched on paper, 1437 01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:11,000 Speaker 4: I'm not ruling them out. 1438 01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:15,400 Speaker 3: Mark your favorite non Bears Rams game of Divisional round weekend. 1439 01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:22,920 Speaker 4: Oh boy, good question. Give me Seahawks forty nine ers. Oh, 1440 01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:25,160 Speaker 4: I'm intrigued by that one because the pressure seems to 1441 01:03:25,200 --> 01:03:28,040 Speaker 4: be like it's on. Darnold's questionable, he's got he's got 1442 01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:31,040 Speaker 4: an obleak. Apparently they're expecting him to play. But that 1443 01:03:31,480 --> 01:03:34,760 Speaker 4: Seattle crowd should be pretty strong. But again, the forty 1444 01:03:34,840 --> 01:03:36,440 Speaker 4: nine ers have just found ways to win. They've lost 1445 01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:40,440 Speaker 4: George Kittle now, but they've they've hung tough this whole season. 1446 01:03:40,600 --> 01:03:42,440 Speaker 4: So do they have one more miracle in him? And 1447 01:03:42,480 --> 01:03:44,320 Speaker 4: can they knock off the number one seed in the NFC? 1448 01:03:44,600 --> 01:03:47,080 Speaker 3: Go Broncos bills for me, Oh. 1449 01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:47,520 Speaker 2: It's gonna be. 1450 01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:49,760 Speaker 1: That's the one where I'll be down in my basement, 1451 01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:53,439 Speaker 1: not answering phone calls and paying attention to anything. Mark, 1452 01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:55,080 Speaker 1: how do you feel about you? You like the Bears 1453 01:03:55,160 --> 01:03:56,880 Speaker 1: enough to go three in the three and a half 1454 01:03:56,880 --> 01:03:57,400 Speaker 1: points spread? 1455 01:03:58,360 --> 01:04:00,480 Speaker 4: Uh, Jeff, I've already sprinkled money on the being the 1456 01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:02,080 Speaker 4: representative of the NFC. 1457 01:04:01,800 --> 01:04:04,760 Speaker 2: So sprinkled ye little here, little there. 1458 01:04:05,440 --> 01:04:05,880 Speaker 5: I like that. 1459 01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:08,600 Speaker 1: Didn't you do that for over under for the Pacers? 1460 01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:10,680 Speaker 1: Or was that just one bet at the beginning? 1461 01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:12,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I bet the Pacers to be a playoff team 1462 01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:15,600 Speaker 3: all right as well. Flush that down the toilet. 1463 01:04:16,280 --> 01:04:18,560 Speaker 6: Well, there's always last year. Kevin can't win them all, brother. 1464 01:04:19,240 --> 01:04:22,160 Speaker 1: College basketball is having a little bumpy day. They've got 1465 01:04:22,160 --> 01:04:26,360 Speaker 1: a point shaving scheme that was announced by the FBI 1466 01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:31,160 Speaker 1: and federal prosecutors from the Eastern District of Pennsylvania yesterday, 1467 01:04:31,920 --> 01:04:36,000 Speaker 1: thirty nine players on seventeen NCAA Division One teams, resulting 1468 01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:38,640 Speaker 1: in dozens of games in the previous two seasons being 1469 01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:42,400 Speaker 1: fixed by a gambling ring that reportedly included a former 1470 01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:46,560 Speaker 1: NBA player, according to the federal indictment unsealed Thursday. 1471 01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:48,840 Speaker 6: Where's Chauncey billups at? 1472 01:04:49,480 --> 01:04:51,800 Speaker 1: He's still waiting to see what's next in his case, 1473 01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:57,040 Speaker 1: I believe. But a lot of lower level, mid mid 1474 01:04:57,120 --> 01:05:01,800 Speaker 1: sized programs where kids just don't have access to nil, 1475 01:05:01,920 --> 01:05:05,160 Speaker 1: and just crazy betting patterns too, James, you're talking about 1476 01:05:05,160 --> 01:05:07,480 Speaker 1: that in the first hour. Crazy betting patterns. 1477 01:05:07,800 --> 01:05:11,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, they're all stupid, very stupid. I mean that people 1478 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:14,800 Speaker 6: that analyze betting markets spikes in certain areas, and so 1479 01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:17,280 Speaker 6: when you see an inconsistency, they're kind of investigated. 1480 01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:20,000 Speaker 3: And it was pretty easy to put all that together. 1481 01:05:20,200 --> 01:05:21,960 Speaker 6: I just want to know, and I'm not sure if 1482 01:05:21,960 --> 01:05:23,800 Speaker 6: that part of it has been really explored yet. But 1483 01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:26,160 Speaker 6: what happens to you as a consumer if you bet 1484 01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:28,480 Speaker 6: on those games? Do you get the money back if 1485 01:05:28,480 --> 01:05:30,240 Speaker 6: you lost? Do you have to forfeit the money if 1486 01:05:30,280 --> 01:05:30,560 Speaker 6: you won? 1487 01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:30,840 Speaker 7: Like? 1488 01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:31,640 Speaker 3: Is it just a wash? 1489 01:05:31,800 --> 01:05:31,840 Speaker 5: Like? 1490 01:05:31,880 --> 01:05:36,080 Speaker 6: Well, sorry that happened, Like what are their I don't 1491 01:05:36,080 --> 01:05:36,760 Speaker 6: know what's the recourse? 1492 01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:37,320 Speaker 3: Are pretty mad? 1493 01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:38,880 Speaker 6: I've been a hundred bucks one of those games and 1494 01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:40,400 Speaker 6: it sure got flipped like that. 1495 01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:46,560 Speaker 1: Well, the investigations will continue, And I guess one of 1496 01:05:46,600 --> 01:05:49,520 Speaker 1: the one or two of the games involved the butler, 1497 01:05:49,600 --> 01:05:52,600 Speaker 1: not as a participant, but as a game that butler 1498 01:05:52,640 --> 01:05:54,640 Speaker 1: was playing in and the other guys, some guys on 1499 01:05:54,680 --> 01:05:56,360 Speaker 1: the other team may have had something going on. 1500 01:05:56,840 --> 01:05:58,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, so I guess as the victim in that case, 1501 01:05:58,560 --> 01:06:01,800 Speaker 6: which is again for the sport you open Pandora's box though, 1502 01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:03,240 Speaker 6: with all the sports betting and now you're trying to 1503 01:06:03,240 --> 01:06:04,560 Speaker 6: figure out how you can control some of it. 1504 01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:06,960 Speaker 1: Maybe the craziest one, though, is that they were uncovering 1505 01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:08,720 Speaker 1: all this. There was a wager of one hundred and 1506 01:06:08,760 --> 01:06:12,720 Speaker 1: sixty eight thousand dollars on the Guangdong Southern Tigers in 1507 01:06:12,760 --> 01:06:14,680 Speaker 1: the Chinese Basketball League. 1508 01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:17,800 Speaker 3: Is that stuff on Marlbury playing for them. 1509 01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:20,360 Speaker 6: I think he might be done playing at this point, 1510 01:06:20,360 --> 01:06:22,680 Speaker 6: but he might have played for him. Man the legend 1511 01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:23,080 Speaker 6: over there. 1512 01:06:23,120 --> 01:06:25,160 Speaker 3: You got any of his shoes, James, I did. 1513 01:06:25,160 --> 01:06:27,400 Speaker 6: Have his shoes back in the day. Shout out to Starbury. Baby, 1514 01:06:27,440 --> 01:06:28,320 Speaker 6: it was like fifteen bucks. 1515 01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:29,400 Speaker 2: You like those were they good? 1516 01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:32,040 Speaker 3: Fifteen bucks shoes? Yeah? And they felt like they were 1517 01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:33,280 Speaker 3: fifteen bucks after a while. 1518 01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:35,680 Speaker 2: Brother, They're good for a couple of weeks. 1519 01:06:35,480 --> 01:06:37,640 Speaker 4: Right, You like Zion Williams and walking down the street 1520 01:06:37,640 --> 01:06:38,840 Speaker 4: and it just exploded on you. 1521 01:06:39,760 --> 01:06:42,880 Speaker 6: Ben Wallace signed with Starbury. I had Ben Wallace shoes 1522 01:06:42,920 --> 01:06:44,439 Speaker 6: coming up. That's how you know I was a hack. 1523 01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:47,400 Speaker 1: Dodgers make more free agent news in Major League Baseball. 1524 01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:49,880 Speaker 1: They signed Kyle Tucker, the outfielder, to a forty year, 1525 01:06:49,960 --> 01:06:53,439 Speaker 1: two hundred and forty million dollars deal out opt out 1526 01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:56,760 Speaker 1: clauses or after season two and after season three for 1527 01:06:56,880 --> 01:06:58,400 Speaker 1: both sides, so you could make a lot of short 1528 01:06:58,480 --> 01:07:01,040 Speaker 1: term money, turn around and get a bigger track later 1529 01:07:01,080 --> 01:07:03,200 Speaker 1: on Mark, he had been playing with the Cubs. What 1530 01:07:03,320 --> 01:07:04,880 Speaker 1: kind of player are the Dodgers getting there? 1531 01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:05,760 Speaker 4: I mean, he's solid. 1532 01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:09,800 Speaker 6: He obviously gave a very quick bump to the Cubs 1533 01:07:09,800 --> 01:07:12,640 Speaker 6: when he was on the team, both defensively and offensively, 1534 01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:14,919 Speaker 6: but obviously injuries kind of plagued him in the second half. 1535 01:07:14,960 --> 01:07:18,040 Speaker 4: But he's a strong left handed bat. He's very very good. 1536 01:07:18,280 --> 01:07:19,840 Speaker 2: All right, anything else, Kevin, you want to throw him? 1537 01:07:19,840 --> 01:07:21,880 Speaker 2: Before we head off to break and talk to Matt Taylor. 1538 01:07:22,120 --> 01:07:25,440 Speaker 3: Indiana will get to Miami tonight, so they will now 1539 01:07:25,440 --> 01:07:29,760 Speaker 3: shift their preparations down there with practice coming up tomorrow, 1540 01:07:29,840 --> 01:07:32,360 Speaker 3: and then I'll walk through on Sunday, so you'll see 1541 01:07:32,640 --> 01:07:35,120 Speaker 3: the arrival party tonight on South. 1542 01:07:35,720 --> 01:07:37,920 Speaker 1: All right, Matt Taylor from the Indianapolis Cults.

It's all straight ahead at ninety 1546 01:07:44,680 --> 01:07:48,280 Speaker 1: three five and one of seven five. Sun starting to 1547 01:07:48,280 --> 01:07:50,920 Speaker 1: come up. Little Kybie in great today. But everything in 1548 01:07:51,040 --> 01:07:54,400 Speaker 1: Sunshine and Roses down in Bloomington is Indiana gets ready 1549 01:07:54,400 --> 01:07:57,040 Speaker 1: to play in the National Championship game Monday night against Miami. 1550 01:07:57,320 --> 01:07:59,680 Speaker 1: A lot of NFL action coming up this weekend divisional 1551 01:07:59,760 --> 01:08:02,480 Speaker 1: round in here to talk about those things. Our man, 1552 01:08:02,560 --> 01:08:05,800 Speaker 1: Matt Taylor, the voice of the Indianapolis Colts, shoining us 1553 01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:07,560 Speaker 1: on the Payloss Lookers Hotline. 1554 01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:08,800 Speaker 2: Good morning, Matt Taylor. 1555 01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:10,280 Speaker 1: I know we all wish the Colts were there on 1556 01:08:10,360 --> 01:08:13,920 Speaker 1: Divisional around weekend, But is there any any game or 1557 01:08:13,920 --> 01:08:17,200 Speaker 1: anything particularly that catches your interest this weekend that you're 1558 01:08:17,200 --> 01:08:19,479 Speaker 1: going to be most looking forward to seeing? 1559 01:08:20,280 --> 01:08:21,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, all of them. To be honest with you, I 1560 01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:23,960 Speaker 5: think they're all going to be great games. I think 1561 01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:26,400 Speaker 5: as it relates to the Colts, you know, you just 1562 01:08:26,439 --> 01:08:28,920 Speaker 5: want to see how how far and how viable the 1563 01:08:28,960 --> 01:08:31,720 Speaker 5: Houston Texans are and how far they can go in 1564 01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:34,280 Speaker 5: the playoffs. You know, kind of a weird stat they 1565 01:08:34,320 --> 01:08:38,639 Speaker 5: are the they're the only team in modern NFL football 1566 01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:41,680 Speaker 5: that's never appeared in a championship game, and so they 1567 01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:44,720 Speaker 5: got another opportunity to do that against the Patriots. And 1568 01:08:44,800 --> 01:08:48,280 Speaker 5: so I think that defense travels. And you know, I 1569 01:08:48,320 --> 01:08:51,439 Speaker 5: was on with JMB I think week last week talking 1570 01:08:51,479 --> 01:08:54,559 Speaker 5: about just how good that defense can be, and you 1571 01:08:54,600 --> 01:08:57,320 Speaker 5: know how much they can lift up that offense and 1572 01:08:57,360 --> 01:09:00,320 Speaker 5: just keep giving extra possessions to CJ. Stropp out And 1573 01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:02,520 Speaker 5: you know, I don't I don't think they're a juggernaut 1574 01:09:02,560 --> 01:09:05,160 Speaker 5: offensively by any means, but they just kind of stay 1575 01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:08,040 Speaker 5: in the game because of that great defense. That's probably 1576 01:09:08,080 --> 01:09:10,599 Speaker 5: the game I'm most interested in watching, just because one 1577 01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:12,840 Speaker 5: side of the ball for then is so dominant. But 1578 01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:15,479 Speaker 5: I think it's that important to be really viable, especially 1579 01:09:15,560 --> 01:09:18,519 Speaker 5: on the road in the cold, in playoff football in 1580 01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:19,400 Speaker 5: the month of January. 1581 01:09:20,040 --> 01:09:21,160 Speaker 3: Are we Miami bound? 1582 01:09:22,880 --> 01:09:26,439 Speaker 5: I think so, yes, sir, I think so. 1583 01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:30,320 Speaker 3: You're built for South Beach. 1584 01:09:31,080 --> 01:09:33,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, go you kidding me? Oh yeah, when you look 1585 01:09:33,760 --> 01:09:36,120 Speaker 5: up South Beach, my picture, my head pops up. There's 1586 01:09:36,120 --> 01:09:37,160 Speaker 5: no question about that. 1587 01:09:37,280 --> 01:09:40,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, you and pops. This are we running the back 1588 01:09:40,160 --> 01:09:43,320 Speaker 3: from the Peach Bowl? Is the Missiles involved anybody else? 1589 01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:45,599 Speaker 5: No, the miss is gonna sit this one out. 1590 01:09:45,840 --> 01:09:46,719 Speaker 8: And uh yeah. 1591 01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:50,639 Speaker 5: So it's just I think my older brother and my dad, myself, 1592 01:09:50,640 --> 01:09:53,599 Speaker 5: we're gonna go and and we're really excited about it, 1593 01:09:53,680 --> 01:09:57,080 Speaker 5: and uh, you know, just a classic family affair and 1594 01:09:57,360 --> 01:10:00,000 Speaker 5: hopefully it makes the memories and watch a good football game, right, 1595 01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:02,760 Speaker 5: I mean, it's it's it's really really exciting. What's going 1596 01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:03,320 Speaker 5: on right now? 1597 01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:06,559 Speaker 3: Do you have a favorite Peach Bowl memory? I guess 1598 01:10:06,640 --> 01:10:08,960 Speaker 3: the pick sixth by the easiest one to point two, 1599 01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:12,120 Speaker 3: But anything in particular, you. 1600 01:10:12,040 --> 01:10:15,200 Speaker 5: Know, honestly, like it's gonna sound corny and cheesy, but 1601 01:10:15,240 --> 01:10:18,360 Speaker 5: we landed or not landed, but we got to You 1602 01:10:18,520 --> 01:10:21,240 Speaker 5: got to our parking spot in Atlanta about quarter to 1603 01:10:21,320 --> 01:10:24,880 Speaker 5: three on on Friday of last week, and like what 1604 01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:27,760 Speaker 5: was just so mind blowing is just walking around and 1605 01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:30,320 Speaker 5: you know, moving up a couple of blocks to a 1606 01:10:30,320 --> 01:10:33,240 Speaker 5: bar here and there. It's like no one's wearing normal clothes, 1607 01:10:33,720 --> 01:10:35,280 Speaker 5: you know what I mean. Like there was a Friday 1608 01:10:35,360 --> 01:10:37,479 Speaker 5: afternoon and so like, you know, I thought some people 1609 01:10:37,479 --> 01:10:40,160 Speaker 5: would be you know, heading out early and and be 1610 01:10:40,240 --> 01:10:43,920 Speaker 5: wearing dress casual stuff, or be wearing Oregon gear. Like 1611 01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:47,040 Speaker 5: everybody around town was just wearing a night use shirt, 1612 01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:48,599 Speaker 5: either a red one or a white one. 1613 01:10:48,840 --> 01:10:51,120 Speaker 8: No one was wearing any other clothes except for those. 1614 01:10:51,600 --> 01:10:54,439 Speaker 5: I mean, it was just it was just so you know, 1615 01:10:54,479 --> 01:10:57,519 Speaker 5: I knew Indiana was a huge brand, like before all 1616 01:10:57,560 --> 01:11:00,400 Speaker 5: of this resurgence in football started, Like I'm not naive 1617 01:11:00,479 --> 01:11:03,000 Speaker 5: to how big of a brand, and you know how 1618 01:11:03,040 --> 01:11:07,160 Speaker 5: big the alumni base is, but it's just like it's 1619 01:11:07,240 --> 01:11:10,000 Speaker 5: it's even more of a brand, bigger brand than I 1620 01:11:10,040 --> 01:11:14,479 Speaker 5: thought it actually was, because of how important football is 1621 01:11:14,520 --> 01:11:17,920 Speaker 5: to the success of university and how viable it is 1622 01:11:17,960 --> 01:11:20,559 Speaker 5: to an athletic department. And I mean, you guys know 1623 01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:23,360 Speaker 5: what it's it's probably unfair, but like a lot of 1624 01:11:23,400 --> 01:11:27,240 Speaker 5: people just judge the perception of your university based on sports, 1625 01:11:27,320 --> 01:11:27,519 Speaker 5: you know what. 1626 01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:29,600 Speaker 8: I mean, Like, Okay. 1627 01:11:29,280 --> 01:11:31,639 Speaker 5: Baylor that that's a good school. They're good at football, 1628 01:11:31,640 --> 01:11:33,679 Speaker 5: they're pretty good at basketball. The last couple of years, 1629 01:11:33,720 --> 01:11:36,120 Speaker 5: you know, Wake Forest probably not a good school because 1630 01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:38,800 Speaker 5: they're not very good in basketball, right, I mean, that's 1631 01:11:38,840 --> 01:11:42,400 Speaker 5: just that's just kind of how we judge and view 1632 01:11:42,439 --> 01:11:46,880 Speaker 5: and perceive universities is because you know, somebody once said 1633 01:11:46,880 --> 01:11:50,480 Speaker 5: that athletics is like the front porch of your institution. 1634 01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:53,880 Speaker 5: You know, it kind of brings extra eyeballs to you know, 1635 01:11:53,880 --> 01:11:56,920 Speaker 5: what you're trying to do academically as well. So there's 1636 01:11:56,920 --> 01:12:00,200 Speaker 5: no question that this this resurgence in football, if you 1637 01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:02,360 Speaker 5: want to call it that is.

But yeah, he's I mean, 1688 01:14:15,400 --> 01:14:17,559 Speaker 5: to know my dad is also to know him as 1689 01:14:17,600 --> 01:14:22,320 Speaker 5: the most impatient person in the world. And so growing up, 1690 01:14:22,720 --> 01:14:26,080 Speaker 5: you know, especially going to the football games. The moment, 1691 01:14:26,200 --> 01:14:28,240 Speaker 5: it's not like he's like, he's not one of those 1692 01:14:28,280 --> 01:14:30,200 Speaker 5: people that would leave at halftime and go to the 1693 01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:32,880 Speaker 5: tailgate and not come back, Like that's not him. He 1694 01:14:32,960 --> 01:14:36,000 Speaker 5: was there to watch good football. But at the moment 1695 01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:39,000 Speaker 5: the game was decided, it was like, we're out because 1696 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:41,880 Speaker 5: he will not sit in traffic, he will not waste 1697 01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:44,680 Speaker 5: his time.

And 1700 01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:53,599 Speaker 5: that that goes back from the infancy of going down 1701 01:14:53,640 --> 01:14:56,400 Speaker 5: there with him as a kid, right, So like I 1702 01:14:56,400 --> 01:14:58,679 Speaker 5: can remember being like and this is this is gonna 1703 01:14:58,680 --> 01:15:01,479 Speaker 5: sound again cheesy, but you know when I'm seven, eight 1704 01:15:01,600 --> 01:15:03,760 Speaker 5: nine years old going down there as a little kid 1705 01:15:03,800 --> 01:15:05,640 Speaker 5: with them. I mean, that's just kind of what we 1706 01:15:05,720 --> 01:15:08,640 Speaker 5: did in you know, it'd be a new game and 1707 01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:11,200 Speaker 5: they'd play you know, just insert team here, like in 1708 01:15:11,280 --> 01:15:15,040 Speaker 5: Michigan or Iowa or you know, Wisconsin, and the game 1709 01:15:15,080 --> 01:15:17,600 Speaker 5: would be out of hand and we'd be you know, 1710 01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:19,760 Speaker 5: we'd be in Martinsville on our way back to the 1711 01:15:19,800 --> 01:15:23,120 Speaker 5: South Side of Indianapolis, and it'd be like almost midway 1712 01:15:23,160 --> 01:15:24,719 Speaker 5: through the third quarter or fourth quarter. 1713 01:15:24,760 --> 01:15:26,599 Speaker 3: We'd be in a driveway by the time the gun 1714 01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:27,320 Speaker 3: goes off. 1715 01:15:27,880 --> 01:15:30,840 Speaker 5: And but I mean, that's that's I think that's what 1716 01:15:30,960 --> 01:15:33,600 Speaker 5: kind of got me interested in radio broadcasting, to be 1717 01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:35,160 Speaker 5: honest with you, because we listened to the game of 1718 01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:37,639 Speaker 5: the way home, or we would scan the radio and 1719 01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:40,760 Speaker 5: return on the Purdue game, or we would turn on 1720 01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:43,000 Speaker 5: the Notre Dame game or the national game of the 1721 01:15:43,080 --> 01:15:46,280 Speaker 5: week on a different radio station. And that's kind of 1722 01:15:46,280 --> 01:15:49,000 Speaker 5: like what got me interested in in play by play 1723 01:15:49,120 --> 01:15:50,519 Speaker 5: is like, you know, I think I could do that. 1724 01:15:50,600 --> 01:15:51,559 Speaker 8: I think that would be fun. 1725 01:15:51,600 --> 01:15:53,400 Speaker 5: And that's that's really kind of what got the itch 1726 01:15:53,479 --> 01:15:56,960 Speaker 5: for me is just listening to ball games with my dad, 1727 01:15:57,000 --> 01:15:59,599 Speaker 5: coming home from a ball game, talking about sports. It's 1728 01:15:59,640 --> 01:16:02,400 Speaker 5: just like the most prevalent thing that he and I 1729 01:16:02,520 --> 01:16:06,160 Speaker 5: share together growing up. And so it's just really special 1730 01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:09,639 Speaker 5: to be able to, like, you know, for him because 1731 01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:13,120 Speaker 5: literally he's been financially invested in all of this for 1732 01:16:13,200 --> 01:16:15,759 Speaker 5: all these years. So to have this you know, huge 1733 01:16:15,960 --> 01:16:18,599 Speaker 5: amount of payoff come back to him, you know, twenty 1734 01:16:18,640 --> 01:16:21,960 Speaker 5: twenty five years later is just really special and He's 1735 01:16:21,960 --> 01:16:24,120 Speaker 5: just riding this wave all the way through to the 1736 01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:25,360 Speaker 5: National Championship game. 1737 01:16:25,520 --> 01:16:28,840 Speaker 1: That is so awesome and I wish I could go 1738 01:16:28,880 --> 01:16:30,000 Speaker 1: do something like that with my dad. 1739 01:16:30,120 --> 01:16:32,200 Speaker 2: So I love that story. 1740 01:16:32,240 --> 01:16:34,240 Speaker 1: Man, I'm just curious you guys have a parking plan 1741 01:16:34,320 --> 01:16:36,760 Speaker 1: knowing that he's impatient because it is not going to 1742 01:16:36,840 --> 01:16:37,679 Speaker 1: be fun down there. 1743 01:16:38,560 --> 01:16:40,519 Speaker 5: Well, so also know my dad. You know that he 1744 01:16:40,640 --> 01:16:43,120 Speaker 5: is the most pre flanned out person ever, but he 1745 01:16:43,160 --> 01:16:46,519 Speaker 5: doesn't win anything, all right, So yeah, so that's that's 1746 01:16:46,600 --> 01:16:51,080 Speaker 5: another thing that I'd probably take it for granted. But yeah, 1747 01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:53,320 Speaker 5: I just I'm riding his cotails and I don't have 1748 01:16:53,320 --> 01:16:55,719 Speaker 5: to do any logistics because I know he's a planner 1749 01:16:56,240 --> 01:16:58,280 Speaker 5: and I know he's got everything kind of thought out, 1750 01:16:58,360 --> 01:17:00,680 Speaker 5: and he likes to do those things. He doesn't really 1751 01:17:00,720 --> 01:17:04,040 Speaker 5: trust anybody else to do those things, so I know 1752 01:17:04,120 --> 01:17:06,280 Speaker 5: that I just have to kind of just you just 1753 01:17:06,320 --> 01:17:08,920 Speaker 5: tell me where to be and you know, make sure 1754 01:17:08,920 --> 01:17:10,680 Speaker 5: I'm there on time, and we'll have a good time 1755 01:17:10,720 --> 01:17:12,880 Speaker 5: because he's got everything logistically planned out. 1756 01:17:13,520 --> 01:17:15,720 Speaker 3: Mayte, we will sneak in one Colt's question. Voice of 1757 01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:18,000 Speaker 3: the Colts course, Matt Taylor with us here when you 1758 01:17:18,040 --> 01:17:21,040 Speaker 3: heard Chris Ballard, I guess we could go Thursday mention 1759 01:17:21,280 --> 01:17:26,559 Speaker 3: younger faster. Defensively, do you look at that as every 1760 01:17:26,720 --> 01:17:31,440 Speaker 3: level of the unit mainly defensive line, d line and linebacker. 1761 01:17:31,479 --> 01:17:34,439 Speaker 3: How did you kind of interpret what the focus could 1762 01:17:34,479 --> 01:17:35,920 Speaker 3: be this offseason defensively? 1763 01:17:36,720 --> 01:17:39,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, I did interpret that as all three levels of 1764 01:17:39,960 --> 01:17:42,360 Speaker 5: the defense. And the Colts really have some tough calls 1765 01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:45,439 Speaker 5: to make this year, and it really kind of makes 1766 01:17:45,439 --> 01:17:47,200 Speaker 5: you wonder what it's going to look like in terms 1767 01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:49,920 Speaker 5: of the overhaul. After you hear Chris Ballard say those 1768 01:17:49,960 --> 01:17:54,120 Speaker 5: words about needing to get younger and faster along the defense, 1769 01:17:54,200 --> 01:17:57,120 Speaker 5: I mean, you just start up front. You've got Samson, Ebacom, 1770 01:17:57,240 --> 01:18:01,479 Speaker 5: Taekwon Lewis, and Quitty pay All reaching free agency. And 1771 01:18:01,600 --> 01:18:04,040 Speaker 5: you know, the Colts from a sax standpoint this year 1772 01:18:04,080 --> 01:18:06,439 Speaker 5: along their defensive line, that kind of finished middle of 1773 01:18:06,479 --> 01:18:09,000 Speaker 5: the road. Now, the sack numbers, as we all know, 1774 01:18:09,080 --> 01:18:11,519 Speaker 5: it's not the end all be all, but you know, 1775 01:18:11,600 --> 01:18:13,760 Speaker 5: the sack numbers this year, you know, we're kind of 1776 01:18:13,760 --> 01:18:16,880 Speaker 5: spread out. They didn't have I just said at the 1777 01:18:16,880 --> 01:18:19,559 Speaker 5: beginning of the season they really needed somebody to turn 1778 01:18:19,640 --> 01:18:23,280 Speaker 5: into you know, like a ten to twelve to fourteen 1779 01:18:23,600 --> 01:18:27,160 Speaker 5: sack a year guy. You know, whether that was Lots 1780 01:18:27,520 --> 01:18:30,719 Speaker 5: or Quitty pay or you know, whether it's Simpson Evacom 1781 01:18:30,840 --> 01:18:33,519 Speaker 5: or Taekwon Lewis getting eight sacks apiece or whatever the 1782 01:18:33,560 --> 01:18:36,360 Speaker 5: case was, that just didn't happen. And so they've got 1783 01:18:36,400 --> 01:18:39,240 Speaker 5: some really tough calls to make about the futures of 1784 01:18:39,439 --> 01:18:44,080 Speaker 5: several other defensive line or defensive end members. And then 1785 01:18:44,200 --> 01:18:47,760 Speaker 5: you know, Jermaine Prats a free agent, Zaire Franklin's going 1786 01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:49,679 Speaker 5: to be a free agent the year after next. 1787 01:18:50,360 --> 01:18:52,400 Speaker 8: In the back end, you've got Nick. 1788 01:18:52,280 --> 01:18:54,800 Speaker 5: Cross who's going to be a free agent. So do 1789 01:18:54,840 --> 01:18:58,720 Speaker 5: you want to go completely young and inexperienced, you know, 1790 01:18:59,040 --> 01:19:02,240 Speaker 5: in an effort to kind of save some money within 1791 01:19:02,320 --> 01:19:04,519 Speaker 5: that defense. I don't know if that's the best route 1792 01:19:04,560 --> 01:19:06,320 Speaker 5: to go. I think some of the best defenses in 1793 01:19:06,360 --> 01:19:08,920 Speaker 5: the NFL. You look at Houston, I mean, they're a 1794 01:19:08,960 --> 01:19:14,240 Speaker 5: good mixture of experience and a veteran leadership, but also 1795 01:19:14,720 --> 01:19:17,439 Speaker 5: just young superstars like you know, guys like you know, 1796 01:19:17,520 --> 01:19:21,200 Speaker 5: Will Anderson and and Stingley and Petrie. These are all 1797 01:19:21,280 --> 01:19:25,479 Speaker 5: guys that have, you know, tons of potential still to 1798 01:19:26,320 --> 01:19:30,000 Speaker 5: fill in the NFL. So, and how do you do 1799 01:19:30,040 --> 01:19:32,080 Speaker 5: all that without a first round pick. I mean, that's 1800 01:19:32,080 --> 01:19:35,320 Speaker 5: that's what makes it really, I think even more complicated 1801 01:19:35,320 --> 01:19:37,280 Speaker 5: for Chris Ballard and the Colts is, you know, if 1802 01:19:37,320 --> 01:19:40,400 Speaker 5: you want to address that defensive line a year after 1803 01:19:40,439 --> 01:19:42,920 Speaker 5: you really went out and went bold and addressed the 1804 01:19:43,200 --> 01:19:45,360 Speaker 5: secondary after what happened at the end of the twenty 1805 01:19:45,400 --> 01:19:48,400 Speaker 5: twenty four season, Okay, how do you do that without 1806 01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:50,040 Speaker 5: a first round pick? Right? You need to get a 1807 01:19:50,040 --> 01:19:53,720 Speaker 5: premier player that plays a premier position. But oftentimes, as 1808 01:19:53,760 --> 01:19:55,599 Speaker 5: we know, I mean, you've got to draft those guys, 1809 01:19:55,600 --> 01:19:57,920 Speaker 5: and a really good ones never hit free agency. So 1810 01:19:58,800 --> 01:20:01,479 Speaker 5: I think probably real stically, the most viable thing for 1811 01:20:01,520 --> 01:20:04,960 Speaker 5: the Colts to do to address that is to take 1812 01:20:05,040 --> 01:20:07,559 Speaker 5: whatever is available in free agency, and you got to 1813 01:20:07,600 --> 01:20:10,519 Speaker 5: spend and try to upgrade that position, knowing how important 1814 01:20:10,520 --> 01:20:11,639 Speaker 5: it is for being a remo. 1815 01:20:12,400 --> 01:20:14,000 Speaker 1: Always good to hear from you, mate.

Apparently he threw 1889 01:23:31,760 --> 01:23:34,280 Speaker 6: some games and they like dropped off two hundred thousand 1890 01:23:34,280 --> 01:23:38,360 Speaker 6: dollars in cash at like a storage unit for him. 1891 01:23:38,479 --> 01:23:39,960 Speaker 3: Wow, you don't think there's a video of this. 1892 01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:43,320 Speaker 6: Like, so again, all of everybody involved needs to be 1893 01:23:43,400 --> 01:23:45,759 Speaker 6: told how dumb they are before they get their sentencing. 1894 01:23:45,920 --> 01:23:48,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm curious that you can we start flagging this earlier. 1895 01:23:48,720 --> 01:23:51,000 Speaker 3: That would be a question that I would have. You know, 1896 01:23:51,200 --> 01:23:53,040 Speaker 3: you know, when you see some of these money amounts 1897 01:23:53,040 --> 01:23:57,800 Speaker 3: on games that are not Duke in Carolina, you know, 1898 01:23:57,880 --> 01:23:59,960 Speaker 3: does that not ignite a red flag that can be 1899 01:24:00,120 --> 01:24:02,479 Speaker 3: handled a little bit earlier in the process. I go 1900 01:24:02,560 --> 01:24:03,840 Speaker 3: back to the first one we had, and I think 1901 01:24:03,880 --> 01:24:05,840 Speaker 3: the guy was from the state of Indiana. Remember when 1902 01:24:05,880 --> 01:24:10,680 Speaker 3: we had that, like SEC baseball game bet placed in Cincinnati? 1903 01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:12,400 Speaker 3: Is that the red near the Red state? 1904 01:24:12,560 --> 01:24:12,680 Speaker 5: Right? 1905 01:24:12,760 --> 01:24:13,840 Speaker 2: Yeah? Right? 1906 01:24:14,160 --> 01:24:18,200 Speaker 3: You know, again, how does that not And I get 1907 01:24:18,280 --> 01:24:21,320 Speaker 3: you have to vet and look into it obviously a 1908 01:24:21,320 --> 01:24:23,759 Speaker 3: little bit, but you know, how does that not spark 1909 01:24:23,880 --> 01:24:27,160 Speaker 3: some sort of whatever forty eight hours seventy two hours? 1910 01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:30,519 Speaker 3: So for example, if you have insert your random teams here, 1911 01:24:30,560 --> 01:24:33,120 Speaker 3: I'm trying to like, DePaul was a team yesterday and 1912 01:24:33,320 --> 01:24:35,080 Speaker 3: they're honestly a little bit of a higher level. But 1913 01:24:35,080 --> 01:24:37,559 Speaker 3: some of these lower level schools, you know, can you 1914 01:24:37,640 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 3: get it if they're playing on a Wednesday and a Saturday, 1915 01:24:40,320 --> 01:24:42,240 Speaker 3: do you see the amount on a Wednesday, and then 1916 01:24:42,240 --> 01:24:44,240 Speaker 3: all of a sudden you look into it Thursday, Friday, 1917 01:24:44,240 --> 01:24:47,439 Speaker 3: and before that Saturday game arrives, you've looked into it, 1918 01:24:47,479 --> 01:24:50,280 Speaker 3: and potentially that player or those players that are involved, 1919 01:24:50,680 --> 01:24:52,720 Speaker 3: you have a little bit of an idea of what 1920 01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:54,920 Speaker 3: they've done, and you can handle it from a punishment standpoint. 1921 01:24:55,000 --> 01:24:56,840 Speaker 4: Then, I mean, that's why I don't get with the 1922 01:24:56,880 --> 01:24:59,679 Speaker 4: whole Like when you have the live odds changing and everything, 1923 01:24:59,680 --> 01:25:01,560 Speaker 4: to my someone's doing that, so like they have to 1924 01:25:01,640 --> 01:25:04,400 Speaker 4: have monitoring, Like somebody's monitoring all this. So you'd think 1925 01:25:04,400 --> 01:25:06,800 Speaker 4: when some big amounts like that come in just kind 1926 01:25:06,800 --> 01:25:10,120 Speaker 4: of sending yeah, flags up the flagpole and everything. 1927 01:25:09,960 --> 01:25:11,679 Speaker 3: Like this is I agree with you man. 1928 01:25:12,160 --> 01:25:14,160 Speaker 1: So according to Pete Tamil, who's one of the best 1929 01:25:14,160 --> 01:25:17,600 Speaker 1: in the business covering college sports, approximately four hundred and 1930 01:25:17,640 --> 01:25:21,280 Speaker 1: fifty eight thousand dollars on tousand to beat unc A 1931 01:25:21,439 --> 01:25:21,640 Speaker 1: and T. 1932 01:25:22,960 --> 01:25:25,439 Speaker 2: Think about that matchup thousand and unc A and T. 1933 01:25:25,880 --> 01:25:26,679 Speaker 3: It's just stupid. 1934 01:25:26,760 --> 01:25:28,840 Speaker 2: Four hundred and fifty eight thousand dollars right, So. 1935 01:25:28,760 --> 01:25:30,919 Speaker 3: Like again my question is why isn't that getting flagged 1936 01:25:31,080 --> 01:25:33,559 Speaker 3: right away? Like, I mean, look at those opponents on 1937 01:25:33,600 --> 01:25:35,439 Speaker 3: that ye and look at the other games that are 1938 01:25:35,479 --> 01:25:39,519 Speaker 3: bet on them. The money amount doesn't sniff that from 1939 01:25:39,600 --> 01:25:42,880 Speaker 3: a you know, night in night out standpoint there.

So he's been on 2111 01:32:52,920 --> 01:32:56,120 Speaker 6: the Fernanda Mendza thing and so it's funny because he 2112 01:32:56,120 --> 01:32:59,160 Speaker 6: didn't know the guy's name, I don't know a month ago, 2113 01:32:59,360 --> 01:33:01,479 Speaker 6: and then once ready got number one pick, he's like. 2114 01:33:01,439 --> 01:33:03,240 Speaker 3: Who's an i U kid?

How is he? 2116 01:33:04,840 --> 01:33:07,320 Speaker 6: And I'm like, dude, he's he's pretty legit and I 2117 01:33:07,439 --> 01:33:11,280 Speaker 6: jokes aside. I do think Fernando has racistock even more 2118 01:33:11,760 --> 01:33:13,880 Speaker 6: since the cas Football PLAYFF has started, which is crazy 2119 01:33:13,880 --> 01:33:15,000 Speaker 6: to say after winning the Heisman. 2120 01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:17,320 Speaker 3: We haven't really hit this storyline too much this week, 2121 01:33:17,680 --> 01:33:21,160 Speaker 3: but Fernando Mendoza and I see the pictures kind of 2122 01:33:21,160 --> 01:33:23,519 Speaker 3: been making the rounds this week. He did attend the 2123 01:33:23,560 --> 01:33:26,840 Speaker 3: Miami football camp when he was in high school. You know, 2124 01:33:26,880 --> 01:33:28,920 Speaker 3: when we had Dave Dunn, his high school coach, on 2125 01:33:29,080 --> 01:33:31,960 Speaker 3: back about a month ago before the Heisman ceremony. You know, 2126 01:33:32,040 --> 01:33:34,759 Speaker 3: he mentioned Miami was one of the schools that did 2127 01:33:34,920 --> 01:33:39,120 Speaker 3: not recruit him. Now they did in the portal last year. 2128 01:33:39,200 --> 01:33:42,360 Speaker 3: But remember Mendoza went to cal Now he did play 2129 01:33:42,400 --> 01:33:45,760 Speaker 3: Miami last year. Now, I would be it would be 2130 01:33:45,880 --> 01:33:48,559 Speaker 3: ludicrous for me to compare a Col. Miami game in 2131 01:33:48,600 --> 01:33:53,719 Speaker 3: Berkeley to Indiana and Miami in the National Championship game. 2132 01:33:54,680 --> 01:33:57,360 Speaker 3: And Mendoza's I mean, he said this after the game 2133 01:33:58,280 --> 01:34:00,000 Speaker 3: last Friday night of like, oh yeah, I grew up 2134 01:34:00,120 --> 01:34:04,479 Speaker 3: mile from you know, that that campus. And you know, 2135 01:34:05,280 --> 01:34:09,360 Speaker 3: we've probably analyzed Mendoza's psyche as a human being more 2136 01:34:09,400 --> 01:34:13,200 Speaker 3: than we do most because he is so unique. I'm 2137 01:34:13,360 --> 01:34:17,320 Speaker 3: very curious like how he views this moment, you know, 2138 01:34:17,520 --> 01:34:21,439 Speaker 3: can't He strikes me as someone incredibly mature, But is 2139 01:34:21,479 --> 01:34:25,000 Speaker 3: there any sort of like, Man, that's the school that 2140 01:34:25,040 --> 01:34:26,840 Speaker 3: I wanted to go to, That's the school in my 2141 01:34:26,880 --> 01:34:29,599 Speaker 3: own backyard now here I am playing, And I mean, 2142 01:34:29,600 --> 01:34:31,040 Speaker 3: at the end of the day, he's what twenty two 2143 01:34:31,080 --> 01:34:33,400 Speaker 3: years old like that there still has to be some 2144 01:34:33,600 --> 01:34:35,679 Speaker 3: of that inside of him, right. 2145 01:34:35,600 --> 01:34:39,559 Speaker 6: Yes, But also along those same lines, Kevin, I wonder 2146 01:34:39,600 --> 01:34:43,040 Speaker 6: when you shut all of the personal stuff out, not 2147 01:34:43,200 --> 01:34:46,560 Speaker 6: meaning the thoughts of growing up in Miami wanted to 2148 01:34:46,560 --> 01:34:49,439 Speaker 6: play there, but I mean, like, okay, I'm assuming his 2149 01:34:49,520 --> 01:34:51,559 Speaker 6: family wants to go to the game, and they've been 2150 01:34:51,560 --> 01:34:54,040 Speaker 6: there for all of them. But then with it being 2151 01:34:54,439 --> 01:34:57,040 Speaker 6: where he grew up, I'm sure he's probably getting inundated 2152 01:34:57,080 --> 01:34:59,960 Speaker 6: with requests or you remember me from way back when, 2153 01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:03,040 Speaker 6: like when do you cut everybody off and focus on football? 2154 01:35:03,040 --> 01:35:06,280 Speaker 6: Because talking to players, and especially talk to the Pacers. 2155 01:35:06,280 --> 01:35:10,800 Speaker 6: Actually throughout the NBA Finals, there's just a lot more 2156 01:35:10,840 --> 01:35:13,720 Speaker 6: hoopla around the game that can distract you from the 2157 01:35:13,720 --> 01:35:16,360 Speaker 6: game itself. There's a bunch more more media, a bunch 2158 01:35:16,400 --> 01:35:19,360 Speaker 6: of more family, obviously people you grew up with congratulating you. 2159 01:35:19,479 --> 01:35:21,439 Speaker 6: But then when do you go kind of go like, 2160 01:35:21,479 --> 01:35:23,400 Speaker 6: all right, let me shut off my phone and lead 2161 01:35:23,439 --> 01:35:25,439 Speaker 6: all the apps and everyone forget my number, and I 2162 01:35:25,479 --> 01:35:27,519 Speaker 6: go and do not disturb so I can focus on 2163 01:35:27,560 --> 01:35:29,720 Speaker 6: the product. Because at the end of the day, you're 2164 01:35:29,760 --> 01:35:31,600 Speaker 6: the one who who gets to go out there, not 2165 01:35:31,720 --> 01:35:32,840 Speaker 6: the people who are rooting for you. 2166 01:35:33,479 --> 01:35:36,120 Speaker 1: Check the text line two through nine, ten seventy A 2167 01:35:36,160 --> 01:35:40,240 Speaker 1: lot of people check it in on the gambling scandal, 2168 01:35:40,320 --> 01:35:44,559 Speaker 1: that's unwinding in front of us today. This man says 2169 01:35:44,600 --> 01:35:46,479 Speaker 1: just an opinion, obviously, but who's supposed to pay for 2170 01:35:46,560 --> 01:35:49,519 Speaker 1: all this regulation and monitoring of every single bet on 2171 01:35:49,680 --> 01:35:53,400 Speaker 1: every directional school sporting event. Also just shows you why 2172 01:35:53,479 --> 01:35:55,280 Speaker 1: you've got to be a moron to bet money on 2173 01:35:55,280 --> 01:35:59,920 Speaker 1: these sporting events. No offense, it's not if it's not fixed. 2174 01:36:00,000 --> 01:36:01,719 Speaker 1: You're putting your money on the game in the decision 2175 01:36:01,760 --> 01:36:04,840 Speaker 1: of some old, fat guys running around in zebra striped shirts. 2176 01:36:04,880 --> 01:36:08,519 Speaker 2: Pretty smart, right, I don't even. 2177 01:36:08,360 --> 01:36:11,080 Speaker 6: Know how to react today, But no, I I agree 2178 01:36:11,120 --> 01:36:11,280 Speaker 6: with that. 2179 01:36:14,080 --> 01:36:17,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, so you look at all that stuff, and you 2180 01:36:17,479 --> 01:36:19,400 Speaker 1: see all the money in the portal, and you see 2181 01:36:20,160 --> 01:36:23,440 Speaker 1: nil money and things like that, and this was probably 2182 01:36:24,320 --> 01:36:26,439 Speaker 1: if you look at the scandal, Kevin, they're going after 2183 01:36:26,520 --> 01:36:30,479 Speaker 1: kids that don't get nil money, and so they're like, okay, 2184 01:36:30,520 --> 01:36:34,360 Speaker 1: thirty thousand dollars. I'm not maybe fixing the game as 2185 01:36:34,439 --> 01:36:36,320 Speaker 1: much as I'm just going to be bad in the 2186 01:36:36,360 --> 01:36:39,160 Speaker 1: first half. That's the rationale, even though it's completely wrong. 2187 01:36:39,439 --> 01:36:42,760 Speaker 1: But you're going to find out today in today's world. 2188 01:36:42,800 --> 01:36:44,280 Speaker 1: I don't see how you keep that secret. 2189 01:36:44,880 --> 01:36:46,479 Speaker 3: If we go back. I know we talked about this 2190 01:36:46,479 --> 01:36:48,760 Speaker 3: a little bit earlier in the show, but tonight we 2191 01:36:48,800 --> 01:36:52,320 Speaker 3: do have Pacers Pelicans on our airwaves, and obviously that's 2192 01:36:52,320 --> 01:36:55,719 Speaker 3: a big game from a standing standpoint for an audience 2193 01:36:55,720 --> 01:36:57,679 Speaker 3: that maybe is not totally plugged into how the NBA 2194 01:36:57,800 --> 01:37:01,639 Speaker 3: draft works, this is it's not like the NFL. You know, James, 2195 01:37:01,640 --> 01:37:03,519 Speaker 3: when you brought up for Nana Mendoz and the Raiders 2196 01:37:03,560 --> 01:37:06,800 Speaker 3: earlier worst record in the league, boom, they get the 2197 01:37:06,880 --> 01:37:10,120 Speaker 3: number one pick. That's not how the NBA draft works. 2198 01:37:10,360 --> 01:37:13,680 Speaker 3: If you look at the percentages for the number one 2199 01:37:13,720 --> 01:37:18,360 Speaker 3: overall pick, the first, second, and third worst record in 2200 01:37:18,360 --> 01:37:21,280 Speaker 3: the NBA all have the same odds. They all have 2201 01:37:21,400 --> 01:37:24,400 Speaker 3: fourteen percent chance at getting the number one overall pick. 2202 01:37:24,560 --> 01:37:27,200 Speaker 3: If you go to the fourth worst record, that is 2203 01:37:27,439 --> 01:37:29,920 Speaker 3: twelve and a half percent. You go to the fifth 2204 01:37:29,960 --> 01:37:33,800 Speaker 3: worst record, that's ten and a half percent. So for 2205 01:37:33,960 --> 01:37:35,960 Speaker 3: those out there that are nervous, this is not like 2206 01:37:36,000 --> 01:37:40,160 Speaker 3: the NFL where it is purely record boom, you slot 2207 01:37:40,160 --> 01:37:42,680 Speaker 3: it in reverse order. The NBA is different and we've 2208 01:37:42,680 --> 01:37:45,120 Speaker 3: seen in recent years where several of these teams that 2209 01:37:45,120 --> 01:37:47,080 Speaker 3: have not had the best odds have gone in there 2210 01:37:47,120 --> 01:37:49,840 Speaker 3: and have won the lottery. So for Pacer fans, out 2211 01:37:49,840 --> 01:37:51,479 Speaker 3: there that are And I get it. 2212 01:37:51,479 --> 01:37:53,840 Speaker 6: I number of years ago when the Bulls won it 2213 01:37:53,880 --> 01:37:55,559 Speaker 6: and they had like less than one percent chance, they 2214 01:37:55,600 --> 01:37:56,519 Speaker 6: ended up getting Derek Roach. 2215 01:37:56,560 --> 01:37:58,800 Speaker 3: It wasn't Dallas pretty low last year when they got 2216 01:37:58,880 --> 01:38:02,719 Speaker 3: flags point, So I totally understand this before. 2217 01:38:03,280 --> 01:38:05,720 Speaker 4: You don't think that was a little folded envelope there? 2218 01:38:06,680 --> 01:38:08,880 Speaker 6: No, I don't think so, because would you would you 2219 01:38:08,920 --> 01:38:10,400 Speaker 6: agree to fold the envelope? 2220 01:38:10,479 --> 01:38:11,920 Speaker 3: Mark if it costs you your job? 2221 01:38:12,120 --> 01:38:14,479 Speaker 6: Nico Harrison isn't coaching there any or or GMing it 2222 01:38:14,600 --> 01:38:16,160 Speaker 6: there anymore. It might have been a little thank you 2223 01:38:16,200 --> 01:38:17,920 Speaker 6: for Luca to La, That's all I'm saying. 2224 01:38:18,479 --> 01:38:21,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, again, I'm not on the conspiracy train as Mark Dyton, 2225 01:38:21,720 --> 01:38:25,280 Speaker 3: But basically, if you're a Pacer fan and you're attending 2226 01:38:25,280 --> 01:38:28,040 Speaker 3: these games, I can understand that it might be very 2227 01:38:28,080 --> 01:38:29,680 Speaker 3: difficult to all of a sudden walk in there and 2228 01:38:29,760 --> 01:38:32,280 Speaker 3: be like, now, what is our best rooting interest for tonight? 2229 01:38:32,960 --> 01:38:35,120 Speaker 3: So yeah, a win or two is not the end 2230 01:38:35,120 --> 01:38:36,920 Speaker 3: of the world. But granted you look at the standings 2231 01:38:37,000 --> 01:38:40,000 Speaker 3: right now, nine wins Pacers, Pelicans and Wizards right there 2232 01:38:40,360 --> 01:38:42,960 Speaker 3: with ten kings and Nets have eleven, so it is 2233 01:38:43,080 --> 01:38:45,559 Speaker 3: very jumbled, But again, we're talking about like a fourteen 2234 01:38:45,560 --> 01:38:48,400 Speaker 3: percent chance for the worst, ten percent chance for the 2235 01:38:48,439 --> 01:38:52,439 Speaker 3: fifth worst, not a massive difference. 2236 01:38:52,479 --> 01:38:52,679 Speaker 5: Mark. 2237 01:38:52,720 --> 01:38:56,000 Speaker 6: We need one another one of those envelopes because on 2238 01:38:56,000 --> 01:38:57,760 Speaker 6: one hand we can write on the one side, hey, 2239 01:38:57,800 --> 01:39:00,559 Speaker 6: you took Tyre's Halliburn's Achilles, Well, like the number one 2240 01:39:00,600 --> 01:39:01,400 Speaker 6: pick is compensation. 2241 01:39:02,560 --> 01:39:03,840 Speaker 3: That's a fair trade off. YEP. 2242 01:39:03,840 --> 01:39:05,479 Speaker 6: I don't know if that's how it works in reality, 2243 01:39:05,560 --> 01:39:08,400 Speaker 6: but you make a very good point there, Kevin, And honestly, 2244 01:39:09,080 --> 01:39:10,320 Speaker 6: I would just say for all the fans out there, 2245 01:39:10,320 --> 01:39:12,760 Speaker 6: you probably don't need to be too too caught up 2246 01:39:12,800 --> 01:39:14,679 Speaker 6: in like the records until you get to that last 2247 01:39:15,560 --> 01:39:18,200 Speaker 6: month of the season and then you're starting to play 2248 01:39:18,200 --> 01:39:21,120 Speaker 6: all the games and scenarios. But yeah, those ping pong balls, man, 2249 01:39:21,560 --> 01:39:24,679 Speaker 6: that can be a heartbreak or also became me frenchise alter. 2250 01:39:25,760 --> 01:39:29,200 Speaker 6: You guys have any good ideas? Are you content with 2251 01:39:29,200 --> 01:39:32,400 Speaker 6: the NBA lottery and. 2252 01:39:31,439 --> 01:39:33,000 Speaker 3: How the rules work. I think it's probably one of 2253 01:39:33,000 --> 01:39:35,800 Speaker 3: the more debated topics out there, probably more of a 2254 01:39:35,800 --> 01:39:38,519 Speaker 3: summer topic than anything. But I've heard people say, hey, 2255 01:39:38,560 --> 01:39:41,200 Speaker 3: once you're eliminated from the playoffs, then your wins count 2256 01:39:41,320 --> 01:39:44,760 Speaker 3: positively positively for you in terms of improving. Wouldn't that 2257 01:39:44,840 --> 01:39:48,000 Speaker 3: be something your lottery odds, You got any good ideas. 2258 01:39:48,080 --> 01:39:50,400 Speaker 1: I know it's better than just having the team with 2259 01:39:50,439 --> 01:39:52,439 Speaker 1: the worst record gets the first overall, because it's too 2260 01:39:52,439 --> 01:39:54,200 Speaker 1: easy to tank in the NBA. 2261 01:39:54,240 --> 01:39:57,440 Speaker 2: We've seen it. You just remember the old the Wizards. 2262 01:39:58,160 --> 01:40:00,680 Speaker 1: They were for a couple of years, they were essentially 2263 01:40:00,720 --> 01:40:04,439 Speaker 1: fielding developmental league teams to try and rack up the 2264 01:40:04,520 --> 01:40:07,479 Speaker 1: process and the losses. And that's why they got guys 2265 01:40:07,560 --> 01:40:10,160 Speaker 1: like Joel Embiid and that's what they got Ben Simmons 2266 01:40:10,240 --> 01:40:10,880 Speaker 1: and guys like that. 2267 01:40:10,920 --> 01:40:11,519 Speaker 2: Didn't work out. 2268 01:40:11,600 --> 01:40:12,559 Speaker 3: So you mentioned the Sixers. 2269 01:40:12,680 --> 01:40:14,479 Speaker 2: You said Sixers. I'm sorry, six Ers. Yeah, I'm talking. 2270 01:40:15,000 --> 01:40:17,120 Speaker 6: Wizards have also probably done the same Wizards. 2271 01:40:16,800 --> 01:40:18,920 Speaker 1: Have done the same thing, and it's a different incense, 2272 01:40:18,960 --> 01:40:21,360 Speaker 1: But probably the Sixers is the best example of that. 2273 01:40:21,439 --> 01:40:21,679 Speaker 5: Yeah. 2274 01:40:21,720 --> 01:40:24,960 Speaker 6: They basically committed to losing repeatedly year after year until 2275 01:40:25,000 --> 01:40:27,840 Speaker 6: they just landed a top three year number one pick. 2276 01:40:27,880 --> 01:40:30,160 Speaker 2: Can you imagine guaranteed number one overall every year? 2277 01:40:30,280 --> 01:40:31,599 Speaker 3: Yeah? I probably that. 2278 01:40:31,600 --> 01:40:33,519 Speaker 6: I don't know, Kevin, I haven't given it much thought. 2279 01:40:34,880 --> 01:40:38,040 Speaker 6: I do kind of like the odds element to it, 2280 01:40:39,640 --> 01:40:43,200 Speaker 6: and I think why I'm not so gung ho about 2281 01:40:43,240 --> 01:40:45,479 Speaker 6: it being reverse order like the NFL is because the NFL, 2282 01:40:45,520 --> 01:40:48,479 Speaker 6: even if you get number one pick, it just doesn't 2283 01:40:48,479 --> 01:40:52,360 Speaker 6: affect your team as much, I believe as an NBA team, like, 2284 01:40:52,400 --> 01:40:54,680 Speaker 6: for example, even if you get like a great quarterback, 2285 01:40:55,160 --> 01:40:57,880 Speaker 6: there are so many other parts you have to get 2286 01:40:57,920 --> 01:41:01,439 Speaker 6: correct to get good rare where you get the guy 2287 01:41:01,479 --> 01:41:03,840 Speaker 6: and you're suddenly like back in business, whereas in the 2288 01:41:03,920 --> 01:41:08,040 Speaker 6: NBA you get win Beyamba. He's playing both sides of 2289 01:41:08,040 --> 01:41:10,920 Speaker 6: the floor. He's a generational player. Like, it's just different. 2290 01:41:11,000 --> 01:41:12,640 Speaker 6: So I don't know, I have to think about that 2291 01:41:12,680 --> 01:41:15,040 Speaker 6: a little bit more, but I do hear a lot 2292 01:41:15,040 --> 01:41:17,080 Speaker 6: of the complaints about it, and usually those are from 2293 01:41:17,080 --> 01:41:20,080 Speaker 6: the fan bases that are like, well, we were thinking 2294 01:41:20,120 --> 01:41:22,720 Speaker 6: all year and now we're picking forth when this other 2295 01:41:22,760 --> 01:41:25,120 Speaker 6: team that was considerably better than us, it's got the 2296 01:41:25,200 --> 01:41:25,760 Speaker 6: number one pick. 2297 01:41:25,760 --> 01:41:27,720 Speaker 3: And then against the loward like I've heard some people say, 2298 01:41:27,800 --> 01:41:29,599 Speaker 3: you take the teams that don't make the playoffs, you 2299 01:41:29,680 --> 01:41:32,559 Speaker 3: have them do a tournament to win the lottery. If 2300 01:41:32,600 --> 01:41:34,720 Speaker 3: I'm on these bad teams, you're trying to win, Why 2301 01:41:34,760 --> 01:41:36,360 Speaker 3: do I want them to get that pick? And all 2302 01:41:36,400 --> 01:41:39,760 Speaker 3: of a sudden, if I'm Johnny Furfey Aj Devants is 2303 01:41:39,760 --> 01:41:40,760 Speaker 3: taking my minutes. 2304 01:41:40,520 --> 01:41:42,920 Speaker 1: Every two way contract players starting in those games. 2305 01:41:43,040 --> 01:41:47,240 Speaker 11: Yeah, it's always funny when when the fans get mad 2306 01:41:47,280 --> 01:41:49,920 Speaker 11: at the players, it's better to get mad at the 2307 01:41:49,920 --> 01:41:52,679 Speaker 11: front office, because trust me, they'll put teams out there 2308 01:41:52,720 --> 01:41:53,800 Speaker 11: that they think cannot win. 2309 01:41:54,200 --> 01:41:56,840 Speaker 6: I've seen that many times, and we're seeing it right now. 2310 01:41:56,920 --> 01:41:58,600 Speaker 3: How these games did a few years ago, I mean, 2311 01:41:58,640 --> 01:42:00,040 Speaker 3: if we're gonna be totally honest. 2312 01:42:00,040 --> 01:42:01,719 Speaker 6: Oh, you mean to tell me that when Malcolm Broden 2313 01:42:01,760 --> 01:42:04,479 Speaker 6: was sitting out with Achilles tendonias that he actually probably. 2314 01:42:04,240 --> 01:42:04,840 Speaker 3: Could have played. 2315 01:42:05,040 --> 01:42:05,600 Speaker 2: Yeah? 2316 01:42:05,640 --> 01:42:09,120 Speaker 6: Wow, that was news to me, man, Kevin, you really 2317 01:42:09,160 --> 01:42:11,800 Speaker 6: just I was looking back, I didn't report on that 2318 01:42:11,840 --> 01:42:12,400 Speaker 6: tough enough. 2319 01:42:13,040 --> 01:42:14,960 Speaker 3: We'll talk about Sam in the Easter Bunny coming up 2320 01:42:14,960 --> 01:42:15,519 Speaker 3: the next second. 2321 01:42:16,280 --> 01:42:18,200 Speaker 1: I like that though, But that's that's what people are 2322 01:42:18,200 --> 01:42:20,120 Speaker 1: talking about and thinking about when New Orleans comes to town. 2323 01:42:20,120 --> 01:42:23,360 Speaker 1: As I mentioned in the last checkdown, Pacers are last 2324 01:42:23,400 --> 01:42:26,120 Speaker 1: in the Eastern Conference, and though the Pelicans are last 2325 01:42:26,120 --> 01:42:27,560 Speaker 1: in the Western Conference. 2326 01:42:27,680 --> 01:42:30,240 Speaker 3: Rain enough to say, yes, tonight is a meaningful game, 2327 01:42:30,680 --> 01:42:32,559 Speaker 3: but like, it's not the end of the world when 2328 01:42:32,560 --> 01:42:35,280 Speaker 3: you're in the NFL and it's a seventeen game season 2329 01:42:36,360 --> 01:42:38,920 Speaker 3: Giants didn't we get Giants Raiders late in the season. 2330 01:42:39,000 --> 01:42:40,400 Speaker 3: Wasn't that like one of those games? I mean, that 2331 01:42:40,479 --> 01:42:44,080 Speaker 3: was a huge game to decide the number one overall pick. 2332 01:42:44,240 --> 01:42:46,960 Speaker 3: And the Colts have had some wild circumstances. I mean, 2333 01:42:47,000 --> 01:42:49,240 Speaker 3: I remember when they got the Andrew Luck pick, Maurice 2334 01:42:49,320 --> 01:42:52,559 Speaker 3: Jones Drew picked up a first down like on a 2335 01:42:52,720 --> 01:42:56,320 Speaker 3: third and one late in the game that it could 2336 01:42:56,360 --> 01:42:57,920 Speaker 3: have given the Colts to the ball back and they 2337 01:42:57,960 --> 01:42:59,880 Speaker 3: could have driven down the field to score for the 2338 01:43:00,120 --> 01:43:02,640 Speaker 3: in had they won it, it would not I think 2339 01:43:02,640 --> 01:43:04,519 Speaker 3: it would have been the Rams with the number one 2340 01:43:04,560 --> 01:43:06,960 Speaker 3: overall pick, and back when they got Peyton Manning, I 2341 01:43:06,960 --> 01:43:09,400 Speaker 3: think it was Jake Plummer and the Cardinals had to 2342 01:43:09,439 --> 01:43:12,280 Speaker 3: execute like a big two minute drive late in a 2343 01:43:12,320 --> 01:43:15,880 Speaker 3: meaningless week seventeen game in order for the Colts to 2344 01:43:15,920 --> 01:43:17,960 Speaker 3: be above I guess it would have been the Chargers back 2345 01:43:17,960 --> 01:43:21,800 Speaker 3: then with Ryan Leaf to have that number one overall pick. 2346 01:43:21,880 --> 01:43:26,000 Speaker 3: So you know, again the whole what if scenarios when 2347 01:43:26,040 --> 01:43:29,160 Speaker 3: it comes to a lot of this, as Will James, 2348 01:43:29,240 --> 01:43:34,240 Speaker 3: did you cover the Pacers the year the Webin Yama Draft, No, 2349 01:43:34,280 --> 01:43:35,120 Speaker 3: you were probably off the beat. 2350 01:43:35,960 --> 01:43:38,400 Speaker 6: Then yeah, I thought I was pushing hard for Wimby 2351 01:43:38,439 --> 01:43:38,720 Speaker 6: to Indy. 2352 01:43:38,880 --> 01:43:42,760 Speaker 3: I think I think Kevin Pritchard shared this he was 2353 01:43:42,800 --> 01:43:46,200 Speaker 3: in the back room. Basically, I believe how the NBA 2354 01:43:46,240 --> 01:43:48,680 Speaker 3: does it is you have a thousand combinations of the 2355 01:43:48,720 --> 01:43:52,760 Speaker 3: ping pong balls. There's five numbers. There's a thousand combinations. 2356 01:43:52,840 --> 01:43:55,080 Speaker 3: So again, if you have a fourteen percent chance the 2357 01:43:55,160 --> 01:43:57,559 Speaker 3: number one pick, you know, you get obviously a percentage 2358 01:43:57,560 --> 01:43:59,920 Speaker 3: of those balls. I thought he said that the pace 2359 01:44:00,120 --> 01:44:03,200 Speaker 3: there's one of the pacers combinations. If it's like a 2360 01:44:03,280 --> 01:44:05,639 Speaker 3: five number, maybe it's a four number. Actually, if there's 2361 01:44:05,640 --> 01:44:08,920 Speaker 3: only a thousand, the first three numbers were the Pacers. 2362 01:44:10,240 --> 01:44:13,120 Speaker 3: So can you imagine being in that back room and 2363 01:44:13,160 --> 01:44:15,559 Speaker 3: you're the Pacers with whatever odds they had, I mean, 2364 01:44:15,640 --> 01:44:17,920 Speaker 3: the odds weren't very good in that draft, and all 2365 01:44:17,920 --> 01:44:20,120 Speaker 3: of a sudden they start reading off and you're looking 2366 01:44:20,160 --> 01:44:22,320 Speaker 3: at like, I get juices flow. And if I'm at 2367 01:44:22,360 --> 01:44:24,240 Speaker 3: a high school sporting event and I've bought the fifty 2368 01:44:24,240 --> 01:44:26,080 Speaker 3: to fifty ticket and all of a sudden they start 2369 01:44:26,080 --> 01:44:27,680 Speaker 3: reading it off, I'm thinking, oh my gosh, am I 2370 01:44:27,680 --> 01:44:28,200 Speaker 3: gonna win this? 2371 01:44:28,280 --> 01:44:28,479 Speaker 5: Yeah? 2372 01:44:28,520 --> 01:44:30,880 Speaker 3: That's stressful, man, And it could have been Webbin Yalla. 2373 01:44:30,960 --> 01:44:33,479 Speaker 3: The first three numbers get read off and instead it's 2374 01:44:34,000 --> 01:44:37,080 Speaker 3: whatever would be to Andy, I have these trade or 2375 01:44:37,240 --> 01:44:38,559 Speaker 3: whoever the Pacers picked out here. 2376 01:44:38,880 --> 01:44:40,679 Speaker 1: All right, Mark, let's check it down and let people 2377 01:44:40,680 --> 01:44:42,240 Speaker 1: know what's ahead this coming weekend. 2378 01:44:43,600 --> 01:44:45,400 Speaker 3: The Morning Shutout. 2379 01:44:45,080 --> 01:44:49,200 Speaker 9: Drought to you by the Barbosol Horizon Leau Basketball Champion. 2380 01:44:48,880 --> 01:44:50,960 Speaker 3: Chips, Mars Stars Here. 2381 01:44:51,040 --> 01:44:57,679 Speaker 9: The Barbisol Horizon Lead Basketball Champion Chips, eight Gens, tickets 2382 01:44:57,680 --> 01:45:01,280 Speaker 9: and more at Howison league dot com.

I feel like it's 2603 01:54:05,920 --> 01:54:08,120 Speaker 6: gonna be a lower scoring game considering how cold it's 2604 01:54:08,160 --> 01:54:08,400 Speaker 6: going to. 2605 01:54:08,439 --> 01:54:11,120 Speaker 3: Be and how slow the Bears sin to start in 2606 01:54:11,160 --> 01:54:11,760 Speaker 3: some of these games. 2607 01:54:11,760 --> 01:54:13,880 Speaker 6: So if they're in it, I think this could be 2608 01:54:14,160 --> 01:54:17,160 Speaker 6: a low scoring affair, maybe like a twenty one seventeen 2609 01:54:17,240 --> 01:54:17,720 Speaker 6: type of game. 2610 01:54:17,800 --> 01:54:19,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, forty eight and a half feels like a lot 2611 01:54:19,520 --> 01:54:20,519 Speaker 1: of points, doesn't it? 2612 01:54:20,560 --> 01:54:22,200 Speaker 2: For that those two teams. 2613 01:54:22,080 --> 01:54:24,000 Speaker 4: I would agree with if you are the Bears defense, 2614 01:54:24,240 --> 01:54:26,160 Speaker 4: they can't stop a fart, that is true. 2615 01:54:26,160 --> 01:54:29,000 Speaker 6: But I'm just wondering if that Chicago cold gets to 2616 01:54:29,000 --> 01:54:30,200 Speaker 6: some of those La boys a little bit. 2617 01:54:30,880 --> 01:54:31,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 2618 01:54:31,120 --> 01:54:33,800 Speaker 3: I like that under too, but fark stopper, Mark, don't 2619 01:54:33,800 --> 01:54:34,840 Speaker 3: have to get your personal number. 2620 01:54:36,120 --> 01:54:36,640 Speaker 2: Probably not. 2621 01:54:36,800 --> 01:54:38,840 Speaker 4: I mean I usually, like on first date, I try 2622 01:54:38,880 --> 01:54:40,760 Speaker 4: to hold it in there and let it let it go. 2623 01:54:40,680 --> 01:54:42,360 Speaker 3: Which stay as you ain't head it back for a while. 2624 01:54:43,240 --> 01:54:44,960 Speaker 4: I can hold it in for I mean, eventually it's 2625 01:54:45,000 --> 01:54:47,440 Speaker 4: gonna blow. There's no question about it. Once you're married, 2626 01:54:47,640 --> 01:54:50,200 Speaker 4: you know, just let it go, man, Aaron, Yeah. 2627 01:54:50,160 --> 01:54:53,480 Speaker 2: Right, all right, So yeah, I agree with you on 2628 01:54:53,520 --> 01:54:54,080 Speaker 2: that one, James. 2629 01:54:54,160 --> 01:54:55,680 Speaker 1: But also just for the sake of being a little 2630 01:54:55,720 --> 01:54:58,840 Speaker 1: bit different, I do think the Bills Broncles will be 2631 01:54:58,960 --> 01:55:00,760 Speaker 1: under forty five and a hal It just feels like 2632 01:55:00,840 --> 01:55:02,440 Speaker 1: it's gonna have to be a defensive battle. 2633 01:55:02,960 --> 01:55:06,320 Speaker 2: The Denver's gonna have to stay in and I don't 2634 01:55:06,320 --> 01:55:07,960 Speaker 2: know who's gonna win. It's toss up to me. But 2635 01:55:08,040 --> 01:55:09,120 Speaker 2: I like the under in that one. 2636 01:55:10,600 --> 01:55:13,080 Speaker 4: Let's go hardest, Now, what's the hardest one? You look 2637 01:55:13,080 --> 01:55:14,800 Speaker 4: at the schedule like, I don't know where this is going. 2638 01:55:15,000 --> 01:55:16,360 Speaker 4: I don't know what the result's gonna be. 2639 01:55:17,640 --> 01:55:23,560 Speaker 6: Boy, I would honestly say, Bill's Broncos. That's a tough 2640 01:55:23,640 --> 01:55:26,400 Speaker 6: game to call, man, I think that the Broncos obviously 2641 01:55:26,520 --> 01:55:29,840 Speaker 6: number one seed in the AFC, But the Bills are 2642 01:55:29,840 --> 01:55:32,280 Speaker 6: the best player in the world. So are you going 2643 01:55:32,320 --> 01:55:35,080 Speaker 6: best seam or best player? And I probably lean towards 2644 01:55:35,160 --> 01:55:36,240 Speaker 6: best player myself. 2645 01:55:36,640 --> 01:55:38,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would agree whole heartedly. I get talked into 2646 01:55:38,760 --> 01:55:41,240 Speaker 3: either of those AFC games. I mean, I think Texans 2647 01:55:41,360 --> 01:55:43,760 Speaker 3: Patriots falls into that boat. You know, we talked a 2648 01:55:43,760 --> 01:55:45,600 Speaker 3: little bit about it earlier in the week. You know, 2649 01:55:45,760 --> 01:55:49,600 Speaker 3: are there some two thousand Ravens eighty five Bears vibes 2650 01:55:49,640 --> 01:55:52,440 Speaker 3: of this Texas defense? I know that's super high. Praise 2651 01:55:53,440 --> 01:55:57,240 Speaker 3: the man. You watch what they did. Mark's boy, Aaron 2652 01:55:57,320 --> 01:56:03,520 Speaker 3: Rodgers the other night there, and is Drake may a dude? Dude? 2653 01:56:04,160 --> 01:56:06,040 Speaker 3: You know, I mean, this is kind of the next 2654 01:56:06,160 --> 01:56:09,360 Speaker 3: question I think for him. He the Chargers had chances 2655 01:56:09,600 --> 01:56:12,400 Speaker 3: in that opening round game, So I'll say Texans, I 2656 01:56:12,440 --> 01:56:14,640 Speaker 3: believe it's three and a half in that one. 2657 01:56:14,800 --> 01:56:15,520 Speaker 4: I'm also intrigued. 2658 01:56:15,560 --> 01:56:15,960 Speaker 3: Can C J. 2659 01:56:16,080 --> 01:56:19,160 Speaker 4: Stroud get better from last week because he did not 2660 01:56:19,280 --> 01:56:21,400 Speaker 4: look very good. And if he has another show on 2661 01:56:21,520 --> 01:56:23,200 Speaker 4: like that, I think the Patriot's going to eat him alive. 2662 01:56:23,360 --> 01:56:25,800 Speaker 4: But that Texans defense is no joke. 2663 01:56:26,000 --> 01:56:28,040 Speaker 1: Now Texans defense is no joke, but I think that 2664 01:56:28,160 --> 01:56:30,760 Speaker 1: Patriots offense is no joke. I think Mike Vrabel his 2665 01:56:30,920 --> 01:56:33,840 Speaker 1: experience is going to play out well there. I am 2666 01:56:34,000 --> 01:56:36,440 Speaker 1: not sold on CJ. Stroud being able to bounce back. 2667 01:56:37,040 --> 01:56:39,400 Speaker 1: He put the he put the ball at risk five 2668 01:56:39,560 --> 01:56:41,000 Speaker 1: or six times. 2669 01:56:41,320 --> 01:56:42,240 Speaker 2: In that game last week. 2670 01:56:42,360 --> 01:56:45,200 Speaker 1: He did not play well against the Steelers at all, 2671 01:56:45,240 --> 01:56:46,880 Speaker 1: and I think the Patriots can take advantage of that. 2672 01:56:47,320 --> 01:56:50,200 Speaker 1: I think they cover that three. I think the pet 2673 01:56:50,280 --> 01:56:52,120 Speaker 1: that's my easiest game is the Patriots to cover. 2674 01:56:53,160 --> 01:56:53,880 Speaker 3: What's your hardest? 2675 01:56:54,760 --> 01:56:54,880 Speaker 1: Uh? 2676 01:56:55,360 --> 01:56:56,160 Speaker 2: The hardest for me? 2677 01:56:56,640 --> 01:56:58,960 Speaker 1: Well, I told you that on you know the over 2678 01:56:59,080 --> 01:57:02,200 Speaker 1: under Broncos Bill. Maybe it's because I have a vested 2679 01:57:02,240 --> 01:57:02,920 Speaker 1: interest in that one. 2680 01:57:03,360 --> 01:57:03,840 Speaker 2: Why are they? 2681 01:57:03,960 --> 01:57:05,760 Speaker 1: Why is my team favored by a point and a half? 2682 01:57:05,760 --> 01:57:07,080 Speaker 1: And I don't feel good about it at all? 2683 01:57:07,240 --> 01:57:11,120 Speaker 6: James, that's your team you got. You gotta feel confident 2684 01:57:11,120 --> 01:57:13,640 Speaker 6: in your team, man. I want to confident of right 2685 01:57:13,640 --> 01:57:14,440 Speaker 6: because Josh Allen. 2686 01:57:14,480 --> 01:57:16,240 Speaker 3: Is it because the bo Knicks this slow starts too. 2687 01:57:16,360 --> 01:57:19,520 Speaker 1: Or yes, if it comes down to Kevin's point, if 2688 01:57:19,560 --> 01:57:22,120 Speaker 1: it comes down to a shootouf between Josh Allen, I guess. 2689 01:57:21,920 --> 01:57:23,480 Speaker 2: You were saying it too, James. If it comes down 2690 01:57:23,480 --> 01:57:25,360 Speaker 2: to a shoouf between Josh Allen and bow Nix. 2691 01:57:25,200 --> 01:57:25,720 Speaker 8: Who do you like? 2692 01:57:26,000 --> 01:57:27,720 Speaker 3: Well? I think one of the more unique aspects of 2693 01:57:27,760 --> 01:57:33,400 Speaker 3: this weekend. Let's look at the four home quarterbacks. Caleb Williams, 2694 01:57:33,800 --> 01:57:38,440 Speaker 3: Sam Darnold, bow Knicks, Drake May. When's the last time 2695 01:57:38,600 --> 01:57:40,800 Speaker 3: we've gotten to this stage of the playoffs and the 2696 01:57:41,000 --> 01:57:46,720 Speaker 3: four home quarterbacks have looked like that? You would take 2697 01:57:46,720 --> 01:57:49,200 Speaker 3: the road quarterbacks over the home quarterbacks, right for sure? 2698 01:57:49,440 --> 01:57:49,720 Speaker 8: For sure? 2699 01:57:49,760 --> 01:57:51,520 Speaker 3: I mean if you literally, you know, did the four 2700 01:57:51,800 --> 01:57:54,320 Speaker 3: four side by side there? So I think that's what 2701 01:57:54,440 --> 01:57:55,240 Speaker 3: makes this weekend. 2702 01:57:55,320 --> 01:57:57,080 Speaker 2: You'd rather have CJ. Stroud than Drake May. 2703 01:57:57,760 --> 01:58:00,520 Speaker 3: If you added up the four road quarters at up 2704 01:58:00,800 --> 01:58:03,880 Speaker 3: home the four home quarterbacks, yeah, and you could make 2705 01:58:03,880 --> 01:58:07,280 Speaker 3: a case Stroud over May. I mean, you know, I 2706 01:58:07,680 --> 01:58:10,040 Speaker 3: get what happened last week, but Stroud's been there, done 2707 01:58:10,040 --> 01:58:10,800 Speaker 3: that more than the playoffs. 2708 01:58:10,840 --> 01:58:13,960 Speaker 2: And Drake Mass Yeah, I just he's two up and down. 2709 01:58:14,040 --> 01:58:16,000 Speaker 2: He's never consistent. What do we have next? 2710 01:58:16,040 --> 01:58:19,040 Speaker 4: Most entertainment, it's entertaining the game you cannot wait to 2711 01:58:19,120 --> 01:58:20,240 Speaker 4: watch this weekend? 2712 01:58:21,240 --> 01:58:23,400 Speaker 3: If you get me snow Mark, I'll go with you, guys. 2713 01:58:26,120 --> 01:58:29,560 Speaker 3: But yeah, Broncos Bills. It's just the Josh Allen to 2714 01:58:29,680 --> 01:58:32,880 Speaker 3: James's point, the Josh Allen storyline. I mean, it's getting 2715 01:58:32,920 --> 01:58:37,600 Speaker 3: some Peyton manningy vibes about, you know, the start of 2716 01:58:37,680 --> 01:58:41,600 Speaker 3: his career and the lack of playoff success. And you know, 2717 01:58:41,640 --> 01:58:44,560 Speaker 3: I've always felt that the Buffalo fan base if we 2718 01:58:44,600 --> 01:58:46,960 Speaker 3: could see them in a super Bowl. I mean, can 2719 01:58:47,000 --> 01:58:49,720 Speaker 3: you imagine you want to talk about a sport ticket 2720 01:58:49,760 --> 01:58:52,000 Speaker 3: for next week? Can you imagine if it's Bills at 2721 01:58:52,120 --> 01:58:55,280 Speaker 3: Patriots for a trip to the super Bowl, those Bills 2722 01:58:55,320 --> 01:58:56,800 Speaker 3: fans getting into Foxboro? 2723 01:58:57,000 --> 01:58:58,880 Speaker 4: How many tables are going to be broken that day? 2724 01:59:01,320 --> 01:59:03,600 Speaker 3: Robert Kraft, put your feet to the side, brother, we 2725 01:59:03,680 --> 01:59:06,400 Speaker 3: got tables broken in in your parking lot. 2726 01:59:07,120 --> 01:59:10,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's gonna be a wildly entertaining game that I 2727 01:59:10,080 --> 01:59:13,120 Speaker 1: will watch by myself in the dark stairs. 2728 01:59:13,800 --> 01:59:15,400 Speaker 3: No better way to do it. I'll watch. 2729 01:59:15,880 --> 01:59:19,040 Speaker 6: I'll go most exciting or when I'm very interested in 2730 01:59:19,120 --> 01:59:21,320 Speaker 6: watching forty nine Seahawks, I mean, I'm interested in all 2731 01:59:21,400 --> 01:59:25,120 Speaker 6: of them, but the knowing that their division rivals, they 2732 01:59:25,160 --> 01:59:28,280 Speaker 6: faced each other twice this year already everything the forty 2733 01:59:28,360 --> 01:59:30,160 Speaker 6: nine ers have been through, they were to pull this off, man, 2734 01:59:30,280 --> 01:59:32,760 Speaker 6: that would be incredible. And I just think that to 2735 01:59:32,880 --> 01:59:35,560 Speaker 6: your point from earlier, Kevin, a seven point spread, that's 2736 01:59:35,600 --> 01:59:37,680 Speaker 6: too much. I get the George Kittles hurt, he's not 2737 01:59:37,720 --> 01:59:41,040 Speaker 6: going to play in this game. But something about division matchups, man, 2738 01:59:41,920 --> 01:59:42,480 Speaker 6: it gets weird. 2739 01:59:43,000 --> 01:59:44,920 Speaker 1: Those are the eight teams still left in the race 2740 01:59:45,000 --> 01:59:46,920 Speaker 1: for the Super Bowl. And you know one other thing 2741 01:59:46,920 --> 01:59:50,240 Speaker 1: in that Bill's Broncos game, kind of a He's been 2742 01:59:50,360 --> 01:59:54,120 Speaker 1: kind of a quiet superstar this year, at least on 2743 01:59:54,200 --> 01:59:57,120 Speaker 1: the field. James Cook has had an amazing year and 2744 01:59:57,280 --> 01:59:59,120 Speaker 1: he's on a team that doesn't have a lot of 2745 01:59:59,280 --> 02:00:02,320 Speaker 1: front line wh receivers. He could be the difference for them. 2746 02:00:03,000 --> 02:00:05,120 Speaker 1: They get that running game going against the Broncos at all. 2747 02:00:05,200 --> 02:00:07,400 Speaker 1: James Cook is a really talented guy, both running with 2748 02:00:07,400 --> 02:00:09,000 Speaker 1: the football and catching it out of the backfield. He 2749 02:00:09,040 --> 02:00:10,000 Speaker 1: could be a difference maker. 2750 02:00:10,160 --> 02:00:12,040 Speaker 3: Well, I don't think there's any debate. The best quarterback, 2751 02:00:12,120 --> 02:00:14,040 Speaker 3: best running back tandem left is the Bills. 2752 02:00:14,360 --> 02:00:16,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, if we're doing flat out winners. You guys go 2753 02:00:16,880 --> 02:00:20,280 Speaker 6: around the horn. Who's winning? Bill's Broncos, Bills? 2754 02:00:22,440 --> 02:00:23,080 Speaker 2: Can I abstain? 2755 02:00:23,360 --> 02:00:26,040 Speaker 6: No, get out there, put an opinion. 2756 02:00:25,800 --> 02:00:27,960 Speaker 2: Out at the risk of being shunned by the rest 2757 02:00:28,000 --> 02:00:29,720 Speaker 2: of my family. I will go Bills in this one. 2758 02:00:30,560 --> 02:00:32,160 Speaker 6: Oh, I'm a rock. 2759 02:00:32,160 --> 02:00:32,960 Speaker 3: I'm rock with the Bills. 2760 02:00:34,400 --> 02:00:36,640 Speaker 4: So the Broncos are getting knocked out at home as 2761 02:00:36,680 --> 02:00:40,360 Speaker 4: a top seed in the AFC.
