Lawyer 178 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 7: was ranked what coming out of high school certainly wasn't 179 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 7: in the top hundred. 180 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 5: And they go to Purdue and they start one hundred 181 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 5: and what thirty four? 182 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 7: They start every game from the day one, and they 183 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 7: have and I say have, I guess we're from the 184 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 7: present tense one of the most decorated careers we've ever seen, 185 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 7: probably in the Big Ten, not just Purdue. And I 186 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 7: think that's a really really cool moment for tomorrow for 187 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 7: Purdue fans experiencing that. So you know that that's part 188 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 7: of March and cannot wait, you know, for that, And 189 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,719 Speaker 7: obviously for Indiana you want to talk about as big 190 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 7: of a one as you can imagine.

You got to see this kid, 197 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: Braiden Smith. And he kept talking about him and talking 198 00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: about him. Then and saw him and he was electric, 199 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: and and now here he is senior day. Four years later, 200 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,839 Speaker 1: after playing every single game, starting as often as he 201 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: could start every game at Purdue. It's amazing. It's amazing. 202 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 8: Thanks. 203 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 3: Ever, as far as the Big Ten goes, is definitely 204 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 3: as far as that program goes. 205 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,839 Speaker 1: So we got a lot to talk about today. For 206 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,199 Speaker 1: the first time in a long time. I don't know, 207 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,319 Speaker 1: maybe ever, Kevin, We've got IndyCar three straight races and 208 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 1: three weekends to start the season. Is I don't think 209 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: that's ever happened before. 210 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 2: Has it? 211 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 3: Yeah? 212 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 7: Out in the Oval there and Phoenix haven't been there 213 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 7: in a while. So busy weekend out there, believe NASCAR 214 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 7: on Sunday, So yes, busy time for IndyCar. Man of Ohio, 215 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 7: we'll try to complete their undefeated regular season. They played 216 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 7: tonight at Ohio. Look like Lebron James and elbow day 217 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 7: to day. 218 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 5: They played last night, So Pacers in action tonight against 219 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 5: the Lakers. 220 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 7: Hold your breath on what it looks like for I 221 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 7: saw Luca played forty minutes last night. Potentially what the 222 00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 7: opposition could be here? And then again, you know Colts 223 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 7: madness is alive, and well there's a thought of like 224 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 7: you hear the Alec Pierce quotes and maybe we can 225 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 7: go back to some of them. With his time with 226 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 7: Kay Adams earlier in the week. Do you have to 227 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:17,839 Speaker 7: get Daniel Jones done to truly get Alec Pierce to 228 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:21,319 Speaker 7: sign on the dotted line or is the transition tag 229 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 7: enough in Pierce's eyes? Because again, those offer sheets, James 230 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 7: can't come until what noon on Monday for Daniel Jones, right, 231 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 7: So if the Jones camp wants to see those sheet 232 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:35,199 Speaker 7: those offer sheets, and the Pierce camp says we're not 233 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,319 Speaker 7: going back to the Colts until the long term deals done, 234 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 7: that leaves a little bit of waiting room in terms 235 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 7: of noon on Monday, when teams can start to I 236 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 7: say offer, I put that up in quotes, agree to 237 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 7: terms on those deals. 238 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,559 Speaker 5: So it's just another question I have in regards to 239 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 5: where we're at right now. 240 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 3: I also have a Michael Pittman junior question to ask 241 00:10:58,480 --> 00:10:58,839 Speaker 3: as well. 242 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: All Right, we got a lot to do this morning, 243 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: a busy, busy weekend coming up.

It's two three, 246 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: nine ten seventy. In the fan text line, it's ninety 247 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: three to five and one on seven five. 248 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 2: The Fan. 249 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 11: A mooing shutout, brought to you by the Barbassol Horizon 250 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 11: League Basketball Championships, Marsh Stars here the Barbisol Horizon League 251 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 11: Basketball Championships, LA tournaments all the line, Marsh eight through Chens, 252 00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 11: tickets and more at Horizonleague dot com, Slashing Indeed and 253 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 11: keat Mom. 254 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 1: We'll be out of the Fairgrounds next week getting ready 255 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: for the Horizon League as they get into their conference tournaments. 256 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: So it'll be a lot of fun there. We do 257 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: that every year. That'll be fun. 258 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,679 Speaker 5: Yeah, Yeah, I was out there last year. Always a 259 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 5: good time. Quotepic'lseum there, beautiful venue at the Fairground. 260 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:46,959 Speaker 1: All right, we'll talk more about that as the day 261 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 1: goes along, but let's talk about James. The Indianapolis Colts 262 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 1: news breaking yesterday that they're exploring a trade for Zaire Franklin. 263 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,839 Speaker 1: Uh doesn't surprise a lot of people, probably, But I 264 00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 1: don't know you're gonna get fair value for a guy 265 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: that everybody in the league now knows. You really want 266 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:03,719 Speaker 1: to trade and need to get some room under the 267 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:04,600 Speaker 1: salary cap form. 268 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 6: Well, fair value is subjective, Jeff, The Colts would love 269 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 6: to get a first round pick, a Day one pick 270 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 6: for Zire Franklin value. To be quite honest with you, 271 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 6: I think this is a courtesy to him and really 272 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 6: just due diligence to put out there that you are 273 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 6: trying to trade him because he would most likely get cut. 274 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 6: I know we talked about the Bears a little bit 275 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 6: earlier in the show. The Bears had done something similar 276 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 6: with the tradement Edmunds. Who is it Tremaine Edmunds. He 277 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 6: is a better player than Zaire was on a bigger contract. 278 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 6: But long story short, the Bears were seeking a trade 279 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 6: for him last week, couldn't reach one cut him, and 280 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 6: that's most likely what's going to happen with Zire Franklin 281 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 6: in my mind. 282 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 1: All Right, Meanwhile, the Buffalo Bills have traded UH for 283 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 1: DJ Moore with the Chicago Bears. What were the details 284 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: of that mark and how excited are you about the prospects? 285 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 4: Dj More and a twenty twenty six fifth round pick 286 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 4: in exchange for Buffalo's second round pick this year. So 287 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 4: Dj Moore fresh off a new deal, it hasn't even 288 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 4: actually kicked in yet, So Buffalo will take on all 289 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,839 Speaker 4: that salary and they send a second round pick to 290 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 4: the Bears. I love DJ Moore, I wish him nothing 291 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,680 Speaker 4: but the best. I hope he thrives under Josh Allen. 292 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 4: But I was shocked that they got a second round pick, 293 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 4: considering considering the monetary value of that contract. So Buffalo 294 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 4: taking all that on and sending out a second round pick, 295 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 4: I was surprised, but pleasantly surprised. 296 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 1: Kevin, does that affect the market for Alec Pierce at all, 297 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,839 Speaker 1: knowing that there's one, maybe less team for him to 298 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: go sign without there? Or is it still pretty much 299 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: the same as it was yesterday? 300 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 9: Yeah? 301 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 5: I mean Buffalo. 302 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 7: I think it was a team that people had mentioned, 303 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 7: So yeah, I would say, if you are in the 304 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 7: you know you want hope that Alec Pierce could be back. 305 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,959 Speaker 7: I do think that's a sign. Now, granted, I think 306 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 7: this was a market for Pierce, or is a market 307 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 7: for Pierce. It's more than just one team, but yeah, 308 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 7: I would consider that good news. 309 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: I also here through the Grape, find that maybe aj 310 00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 1: Brown can be available via trade with the Philadelphia Eagles. 311 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: Would that affect things? Do the Great Vine? 312 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 6: I feel like we've been reading these tea leaves and 313 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 6: you know, grabbing these grapevines for a few months now, Jeff, 314 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 6: it doesn't seem like it's been always sunny in Philadelphia. 315 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 3: But in my mind, I don't know. 316 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,959 Speaker 6: If aj Brown is gonna be an Eagle next year. 317 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 6: But also for the Colts purposes, you just got to 318 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 6: worry about Ale at Peers. So we'll see what happens with. 319 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: That, all right, So a lot of wide receivers shuffling 320 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: to come over the next couple of days and we'll 321 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,800 Speaker 1: see how it all shakes out for the Indianapolis Colts. Meanwhile, 322 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 1: the Indiana Pacers continue their West coast trip tonight. They'll 323 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: be in Los Angeles to play the Lakers ten o'clock 324 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: airtime here at ninety three five one oh seven, ten 325 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: thirty tip off. For those of you wanting to stay 326 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: up late this evening, who do you think is going 327 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: to play in this basketball game, Kevin? For either team? 328 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 7: Well, the Pacers gonna play their guys. Lis'sen as probable, 329 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 7: Aaron E. Smith, Pascal Siakam, and Andrew Nemhard. So you 330 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 7: know that's been a question, And just like they did 331 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 7: the other night, it looks like they will play their guys. 332 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 7: Lakers probably little bit more in question, and they did 333 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 7: play last night. Lebron played north of thirty minutes. He's 334 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 7: got an elbow that he's playing with playing through, I 335 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 7: should say, And Luka doncis he's got an elbow, got 336 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 7: a foot exactly, I should add some context to it. 337 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 7: Luca played forty minutes last night. So you know, again, 338 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 7: their availabilities for tonight a little bit up? 339 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 6: Can I mention this real quick, by the way, And 340 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 6: it's tangential, I think to the pacers of Tyress Halliburton. 341 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 6: But did you see Jason Tatum expected to play tonight 342 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 6: and the debut ten months after tearing his right achilles 343 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 6: So I'm very curious just to see how he looks 344 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 6: out there. I don't doubt that they will put him 345 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 6: out there if he wasn't ready, But boy, that is 346 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 6: quite the recovery timeline for one of the best players 347 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 6: in the NBA and a very good team right now too. 348 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 7: Right, So if you look at it, Tatum ten months, 349 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 7: Tyres will be what fifteen or sixteen months, yes, and 350 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 7: then Daniel Jones will be nine months yep. Just to 351 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 7: kind of throw out all the timelines there for the 352 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 7: achilles respective Achilles. 353 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: That's that's crazy. What are you going to get from 354 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: him though? Especially the first month? Only ten months off 355 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: and achilles repair. 356 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 3: That's what I want to see, Jeff. 357 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 6: I think that he could actually be good, because they 358 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 6: wouldn't put him out there if he wasn't trying to 359 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 6: be himself. I heard they didn't rapping up for quite 360 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 6: some time now, so I'm excited to see it. And 361 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 6: also he still has a bit of a ramp up 362 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 6: I guess window before the playoffs begins. So if they 363 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 6: get eighty percent of Jason Tatum for the playoffs, how 364 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 6: good can that Boston team be? 365 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: All Right, We'll keep an eye on that. Meanwhile, college basketball, 366 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 1: the regular season comes to a close this weekend. Indiana 367 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: plays at Ohio State five point thirty tomorrow. You can 368 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 1: watch it on Fox. You can listen to it on WIBC. 369 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,720 Speaker 1: Wisconsin at Purdue that's a four pm start on CBS. 370 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: Butler plays at The Paul That's a noon game on 371 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 1: Fox Sports one same time as the Notre Dame Boston 372 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: College game on ESPN U Kevin Bowen. So I'm guessing 373 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: you'll be watching Notre Dame and not Butler. 374 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 7: You are guessing correctly there. We're trying to scratch, claw, fight, 375 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 7: do anything. I'll walk up the US thirty one in 376 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 7: South Bend to get in the ACC tournament. 377 00:16:58,960 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: There you go. 378 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 2: I like that. 379 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: We talk about sectional semi finals coming up tonight is 380 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: a busy, loaded schedule.

How about 382 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: Pike and Plainfield at Plainfield, James.

But is it just another Alex Polo procession. 451 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:08,159 Speaker 7: I think it's time for someone else to win. I 452 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 7: think I don't know if it's the most healthy thing 453 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 7: in the sport. If Alex Plow just continues. 454 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 6: To lear say, what is this like, you know, fifth 455 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 6: grade basketball and everyone gets a trophy. If you want 456 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 6: to win, knock off the chet, knock off the KINGE 457 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 6: take off his. 458 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 7: Head, obviously, but I don't think it's very healthy for 459 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 7: the sport that Alex Blow continues to win. 460 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 5: Makes it for a bit of a boring watch. 461 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 7: You really think, so he won by twelve seconds twelve race. 462 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 7: It is not climactic whatsoever. Watching the final twenty laps 463 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 7: of that race. Again, credit to him. It's unbelievable, But yeah, 464 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,120 Speaker 7: I just don't think that it makes for the most 465 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 7: compelling racing. I'd rather get to that final pit stop, 466 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 7: gets to the final you know, five ten laps and 467 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 7: have Mark James and company going nuts, and have Will 468 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 7: Buxton and company going nuts, and with Pelo's dominance, we 469 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 7: ain't getting that. 470 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 6: So basically Kevin is telling all the other drivers get 471 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 6: your act together. 472 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:58,879 Speaker 5: Step the you know what up, or somebody just take 473 00:20:58,920 --> 00:20:59,400 Speaker 5: plow out. 474 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 1: Oh boy, wow, I. 475 00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 3: Don't want to pick up basketball with you, man. 476 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: Kevin takes it seriously over there, man, I know. 477 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 6: Also shout out to JMV winning the media three point 478 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 6: contest over at Hankle. 479 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 3: He was shooting at dying. 480 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 1: You tell us all the time.

Well, we've 507 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 1: all made it to Friday, got a big week at 508 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,160 Speaker 1: a sports straight ahead of us, and we have watchful 509 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: eyes on the National Football League. Al though other than 510 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 1: trades and releases, not a lot can be done between 511 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,159 Speaker 1: now and Monday, and then Monday you can start legally 512 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: tampering with free agents. But I suppose there could be 513 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 1: a trade or two made this weekend. That that wouldn't 514 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 1: surprise you at all, would it? 515 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 3: Chames, not at all? 516 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 6: But shout out to Mark Dyke and planning some waka 517 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 6: flakka here on these airways on this Friday morning. 518 00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,439 Speaker 3: Boy, that one the sick of this rain. I need 519 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 3: to get some good vibe. 520 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 5: No mane, no hands, Mark. 521 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,400 Speaker 6: Sure, we're bringing back some of those what a high 522 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 6: school middle school dances there, KB. But Yeah, as far 523 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:55,360 Speaker 6: as trades go, we should see a lot of action 524 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 6: around the league, quite frankly, because there are a few 525 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 6: teams that have to get under the cap before the Colts. Yeah, 526 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 6: they're trying to trade Zira Franklin. Will I trade happen? 527 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 6: I think that is unlikely, quite frankly, because he's not 528 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 6: a great player, and he's also not like on a 529 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 6: huge contract. So if you're a team that doesn't even 530 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 6: want to take on a little bit that he has left, 531 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:17,439 Speaker 6: why don't you just wait a couple of days if 532 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 6: you want to make a runout. 533 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,399 Speaker 1: How long ago does it feel like Kevin that he 534 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 1: led the NFL in tackles just twenty twenty four? 535 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:28,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, I guess let's start here because Zire Franklin's quite 536 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 7: the polarizing Colt. He's the Benedict Matherin of Colts. I 537 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 7: feel like we debate Franklin as much as we debate Matherin. Uh, 538 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,119 Speaker 7: what a great draft pick by Chris Bauer. I know 539 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 7: probably no one wants to hear that, but a great 540 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 7: draft pick. Yeah, one of the best of his error 541 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,400 Speaker 7: for sure, you know, to draft him in the seventh round. 542 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 7: They actually drafted another linebacker before Zire Franklin in round 543 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 7: seven and Matthew Adams. You know, for him to come 544 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 7: into the league and not only be first a special teamer, 545 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 7: but then you know, elevate all the way to be 546 00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 7: in the league's top tackle guy is just to remarkable story. 547 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 7: Having said that, I think it's probably time that this 548 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,959 Speaker 7: marriage comes to an end. And again when you bring 549 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 7: in the new defensive coordinator, no one's safe. No one's safe, 550 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 7: particularly older guys, particularly guys that make a lot of money, 551 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,879 Speaker 7: particularly guys that start to have a little bit of 552 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 7: a drop off. 553 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,159 Speaker 5: And last year he did, There's no questioning that. 554 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 7: Just to refresh everybody's minds on last season, he missed 555 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,159 Speaker 7: notable time in the off season with an ankle issue, 556 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 7: and that was very rare for a Ziare Franklin. He's 557 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 7: been a extremely durable cult and he ended up playing 558 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 7: every game last season, but still he missed all that 559 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 7: time in the off season. And then whether you want 560 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:38,879 Speaker 7: to look at the tackle numbers, whether you just want 561 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,439 Speaker 7: to look at his turnover numbers, the splash plays, all 562 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 7: of it was a very subpart season. And that doesn't 563 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 7: even get into you know, however, you want to view 564 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 7: how the Colts, you know, handle his off. 565 00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:54,679 Speaker 5: The field chats. So I think can you add up 566 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:54,920 Speaker 5: all of it. 567 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 7: There was some riding on the wall here to the 568 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 7: Colts making him move at linebacker. And we'll see if 569 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 7: Jermaine Prats back he's a free agent, We'll see if 570 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 7: they bring him back. Because there's not a lot of young, 571 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,639 Speaker 7: obvious guys. But Ballot has drafted great at linebacker. It 572 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 7: appears to be a very good linebacker draft class, so 573 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 7: that that checks out as well. Yeah, I'll throw this 574 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:14,680 Speaker 7: out there as well as far as I hear. His 575 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 7: backstory is still is crazy. 576 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 6: And again a lot of folks might roll their eyes 577 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 6: this morning, but I do want to just mention he 578 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 6: probably should have never made it to the level he's 579 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 6: at considering everything he went through you know, lost his 580 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:32,680 Speaker 6: parents young and Grandma helped raise him, and she I believe, 581 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:34,879 Speaker 6: passed when he was in college, and you went on 582 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 6: to Syracuse, got an education, got a degree, and then 583 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 6: now is in what year? 584 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 9: What is it? 585 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 3: Six seven in the league? Probably longer than that. Wait, 586 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 3: did you do that on purpose? 587 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 9: No? 588 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,919 Speaker 3: I did not do that on purpose. Jesus, go to. 589 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 5: High school game. 590 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:52,640 Speaker 3: I think the six seven is it for high school? 591 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: Over school. 592 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 3: Around the age of you all but young goer to 593 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 3: go in with the Hello fell kids. 594 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 1: I dropped that last week and both my kids and 595 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: the dinner taber like that. That's not even a thing anymore. Stop. 596 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, But the point is Zaire beat a lot of odds. 597 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 6: I actually did one of my first deep dives seriously 598 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 6: covering the Colts was on his life and that dude 599 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 6: has overcome so much to get to this point. But 600 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,880 Speaker 6: at the same time, things change quick in this league 601 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 6: and the Colts have to pivot, and he is one 602 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 6: of the many dominoes I think that has to fall 603 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 6: for this team to put themselves in a position to 604 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 6: retain Daniel Jones and try to retain Alec Pearce. But 605 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 6: then I have a question that I want to throw 606 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 6: it to you. 607 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 1: All all right, hang on to that real quick. I 608 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,199 Speaker 1: have a question for you, Kevin, both of you can 609 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: weigh in, like, you can't just load up on players 610 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: right now and figure it out later. Right, you do 611 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 1: have to stay under the salarycap. What's the situation on that, Kevin? 612 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean it is not the most significant cap 613 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 7: savings move that you could have out there. I think 614 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 7: it's kind of similar to the Anthony richardson about a 615 00:26:57,840 --> 00:26:59,640 Speaker 7: handful of million two years left. 616 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,919 Speaker 6: I want to frank on the deal if you trade 617 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 6: or cut him, you would save about five point eight million. 618 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 9: Yeah. 619 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 5: So again it's not it will get you Tom, but yes, 620 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 5: considering right now where you're at, it is something here 621 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 5: of note. So yes, they still will need to do more. Mark, 622 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,119 Speaker 5: you want to cue up the Chris Ballard audio. 623 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 7: Don't think this was too much of a shock to 624 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 7: see last night's news because I think if you heard 625 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 7: Chris Ballard last week of the combine and Mark, does 626 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 7: this start off with asking about kind of the the leadership? 627 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 8: Correct? 628 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,919 Speaker 4: Yes, starts with leadership and then pivots to Zaire Franklin's 629 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 4: future with the team. 630 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 7: So basically asked him to start off with, you know, again, 631 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 7: you've had so many of these pillar cults be captains 632 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,880 Speaker 7: on an annual basis, yet the results have not been there. 633 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,880 Speaker 7: So do you feel like enough is enough in that area? 634 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 7: How do you kind of evaluate your leaders when the 635 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 7: annual end of the season collapses tend to be a 636 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 7: pretty common thing. 637 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 13: That's a fair question. Shane and I have, actually we've 638 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 13: had discussions about that because we have really i mean, look, 639 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 13: y'all go through a locker room. 640 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 9: We have really good dudes. 641 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 13: They care, they want to win, They do everything they 642 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 13: can in their power to do the right things. We 643 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 13: we have to make sure that they're getting i mean, 644 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 13: you know, leaders, you know, we got to help them 645 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,360 Speaker 13: lead sometimes, if that makes sense. I mean, we all 646 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 13: have growth to do, even all, I mean I have 647 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:28,920 Speaker 13: growth to do in that area and they do, and 648 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,120 Speaker 13: we need to do We need to help them grow 649 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 13: along the way too of things that we want done 650 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 13: to make sure that that is getting spread through the 651 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 13: locker room. I think Shane does a really good job now, 652 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 13: but you know, just at this at this time, you know, 653 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 13: because of the results, it hadn't been what we wanted. 654 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 13: So we've got to make sure that we're leading them 655 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 13: in the right direction. 656 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 5: To you expect Zia Franklin back. 657 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 9: We'll see. 658 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 13: Loves I ear. I think like my relationship with him. 659 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 13: He's very honest and he's very strong willed.

He is smart, he is extremely 667 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 13: mentally tough. He's everything you want in a in a 668 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 13: in a player in terms of makeup. 669 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 5: So was you a fan of the podcast? 670 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 13: Needless to say, Zaire and I've had some some some 671 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 13: discussions about the podcast. 672 00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 10: Look, here's what I do like. 673 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 13: I love that he's passionate about what could be next 674 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 13: in life, like every one of our players.

We'll see 679 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 1: to finish off that court. 680 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 6: I believe it was something along the lines of we 681 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 6: have to learn to temper the words that come out 682 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 6: of our mouth. And I think you wanted something Kevin 683 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 6: last week that was about because you know how loyal 684 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 6: Chris is to his guys, and it was kind of 685 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 6: similar to with Anthony Richardson, like you have this staunch 686 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 6: supporter and then you finally get to a point where 687 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 6: you're like, wait a second, you're not as on his 688 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 6: side as you as you've been, And that was very 689 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 6: obvious last week. 690 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. 691 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 7: I think I said to you the next day on 692 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 7: the show, I think we played that clip and I said, 693 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 7: I can't recall the last time Ballard has answered a 694 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 7: question about a player under contract with Wolf See. Yeah, 695 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 7: and again, Zia's under contract for two more years and 696 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 7: it's not like the craziest contract, no, by any means. 697 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 7: So at this point, yeah, I expect it to be different. 698 00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:00,040 Speaker 7: Now the question becomes is Jermaine Pratt also gone and 699 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 7: he's a free agent. 700 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, well you have two new starting linebackers. 701 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 7: Again, throughout those whole offseason discussion, I've always started with, 702 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 7: you're gonna have at least one new starting linebacker and 703 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 7: you're gonna have a new starting defensive end. Those are 704 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 7: the two new starters I expect in the front seven. 705 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 7: My question has always been whither will there be one more? 706 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 7: Will there be three new starters in the front seven? 707 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 7: Definitely gonna be two in my opinion. 708 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 5: Will there be a third? 709 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 3: How much do you think the podcast was a part 710 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 3: of this decision? 711 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 6: Because I don't want to like Overstate because I think 712 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 6: that you can talk in that crazy and if you perform, 713 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 6: who cares. 714 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 7: I think it's more to do with the tackle numbers 715 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 7: really dropped off, the splash plays really dropped off. 716 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 5: A new defensive coordinator. I mean they have given. 717 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 7: So much autonomy with this roster. I mean they allowed 718 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,239 Speaker 7: them to bring xaviing Howard off the couch. I mean 719 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 7: they have allowed into the couch he definitely did. Gosh, 720 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 7: is there any better than a couch nap? I can't 721 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 7: tell you that's time I've had one, But this weather 722 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 7: is gonna. 723 00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 3: Say you're allowed to have those. As a parent of 724 00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 3: young children. 725 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 5: Feel like it's needed. Can I throw something at you? 726 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 5: This is from Drew. Shout out, Drew, You're tweeted this yesterday. 727 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 7: He goes, it won't happen, But if I had to 728 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 7: win the AFC South, this year to save my job 729 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 7: as Chris Ballard, I'd sign Kyler Murray for one point 730 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 7: three million. I'd pay Alec Pierce, restructure as many Vets 731 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 7: as possible, go crazy on defense and free agency in 732 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 7: the draft. Daniel Jones on one leg is getting everyone fired. 733 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 5: Kyler Murray one point thirty million. If we want to 734 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 5: play out Drew or Daniel Jones thirty seven million. 735 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 1: I will throw in that. Albert Breer reported yesterday that 736 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 1: that Kyler Murray would be interested in the Colts, and 737 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 1: maybe he's just trying to drum up a bunch of teams, 738 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 1: But look, you got a guy who's hurt all the time, 739 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 1: who had Grade eight games coming off a major injury, 740 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 1: and you're going to be pay at least thirty eight million. 741 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: Depending on how this whole contra thing works out. You 742 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: could do worse than Kyler Murray at one point three 743 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 1: million dollars, because I still think he's a pretty decent quarterback, 744 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 1: and I think as much as anything, the Cardinals screwed 745 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: that situation up. 746 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 6: Are we sure he's only gonna get one point three 747 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 6: I was gonna say, well, for the second of the argument. 748 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: Well, because I think the Cardinals are still on the 749 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 1: hook for the bulk of that salary for at least. 750 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 3: Oh, that's true, But that doesn't just because you can 751 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 3: accept the vetmental But he's. 752 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 1: Talking about But to your point, Kevin, the guy's talking 753 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 1: about this year trying to save your job. 754 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 7: Let's mark, let's bump it up to ten. Okay, So 755 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:35,800 Speaker 7: is Daniel Jones coming off of torn a killes twenty 756 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 7: seven million dollars worth it? I guess more than Kyler Murray. Again, 757 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 7: you're let's play out the twenty seven million more. You're 758 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 7: taking away probably two starters in twenty seven million. You 759 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 7: could theoretically go out and get two starting level players. 760 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 7: Is Daniel Jones two starting level players coming off of 761 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 7: torn Achilles, albeit very familiar with the system than Kyler 762 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 7: Murray coming over from Arizona and learning a new system. 763 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 3: I certainly would say no. 764 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 1: I didn't. 765 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 4: I didn't agree with the transition tag to begin with 766 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 4: because I think you're putting a lot of eggs in 767 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:09,720 Speaker 4: an unknown basket. 768 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:12,920 Speaker 3: And I would try the Kyler Murray thing. 769 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:14,840 Speaker 4: But if we're just doing a one year thing with 770 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 4: Jones and Murray, you're gonna be in the same boat 771 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:17,440 Speaker 4: next year. 772 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:19,320 Speaker 1: So I guess it is what it is. 773 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 4: If you try to spend that money and spread it 774 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,760 Speaker 4: out to free agency elsewhere, then I would go Kyler Murray. 775 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 4: If you really think you're the eight and two thing 776 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 4: wasn't a smoke and mirror situation and you think you 777 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,320 Speaker 4: can run back with Daniel Jones and your banking that 778 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 4: is going to be healthy head heading into training camp, 779 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:35,320 Speaker 4: and I guess they're going to go that route, but 780 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:36,719 Speaker 4: I don't love it. 781 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 1: One thing we learned about Shane Stike in last year, though, 782 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,800 Speaker 1: is he loves him some quarterback that has knowledge of 783 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:44,480 Speaker 1: his system. You bring a guy that hadn't played for 784 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 1: five years over the age of forty off the couch, Kevin. 785 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:51,440 Speaker 7: James, do you think it's anything they would consider? I mean, 786 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:56,959 Speaker 7: we know they love Daniel Jones, love them now great. 787 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:58,759 Speaker 7: At thirty seven million, I guess was a sign they 788 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 7: don't maybe the as much as I just said, they 789 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:03,239 Speaker 7: could have uped that a little bit, but still they 790 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 7: obviously are big, big fans of me. You think this 791 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 7: thought would even be pondered inside of that building? 792 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 6: Well, Kevin, you know I knew you loved me when 793 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:15,760 Speaker 6: you sent me like a gift card to Nike for Christmas, 794 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 6: and I was thinking, boy, did you get anything that 795 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:19,800 Speaker 6: that's true love? I haven't you know what I actually have? 796 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:24,359 Speaker 6: Not because I'm like you, I'm like anti mall or whatever. 797 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:25,720 Speaker 6: So I'll get there eventually. 798 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 3: It's called the world Wide Web, mister boyd. 799 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,440 Speaker 5: And you've ever sounded in your life. 800 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 3: I don't buy anything.

That is part of, 807 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 3: you know, the equation. 808 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 6: So as I'm getting slandered here on these airways about 809 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:57,280 Speaker 6: my you know, spending habits, questions just questions anyway. 810 00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:01,760 Speaker 3: As far as uh, well, look. 811 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 5: At it when it comes to if you flush twenty 812 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 5: five dollars down the toilet. 813 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 6: Or however, oh Lord, have mercy.

But I would go with 823 00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 6: Kyler just because I don't trust people coming off injuries. 824 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:34,280 Speaker 6: I don't care who it is you're coming off an achilles. 825 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 6: We've seen this time and time again from pretty much 826 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 6: every player who has an achilles injury. They're never the 827 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 6: same player the next year. So what are you actually 828 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 6: banking on. You're banking on this mirage to steal a 829 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 6: word from Chris Ballad and Mark here, or are you 830 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:52,880 Speaker 6: living in reality and saying ninety nine percent of players 831 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 6: who tear their achilles are not the same guy the 832 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:57,919 Speaker 6: following year. Yeah, and do we trust our system enough 833 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 6: seriously that it's not just Daniel Jones, it's we figured 834 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 6: it out with a new quarterback. So if it's Gino 835 00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 6: Smith or Kyler Murray, whoever, if you can make some 836 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 6: of these throws, if you had some success in this league, 837 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 6: then why can't you come here and have it with 838 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 6: us in our system? 839 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 7: And I think where the Colts would counter again, this 840 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:21,239 Speaker 7: is more of their love of Jones. It would be 841 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 7: we think over the next whatever two to three years, 842 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,360 Speaker 7: that there's potential for Sam Darnold situation. 843 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:28,719 Speaker 9: Again. 844 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 7: Maybe you don't reap that to the full extent here 845 00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 7: in twenty twenty six, but there's a thought there that, 846 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 7: you know, the old adage of your two off the Achilles. 847 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,479 Speaker 5: You know they're asking him, obviously to do it nine months. 848 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,879 Speaker 7: What Daniel Jones looks like in twenty twenty six versus 849 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:46,840 Speaker 7: twenty twenty seven, and their eyes could be different. And 850 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,720 Speaker 7: I know that sounds nightmarish to a lot of Colts fans. 851 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 7: I all continue to bring up. I could easily see 852 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 7: the season going the reverse. The Colts get off to 853 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:58,360 Speaker 7: the slow start, Daniel Jones struggles early and then starts 854 00:37:58,360 --> 00:37:59,920 Speaker 7: to find a little bit of his footing gets healthier, 855 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:01,359 Speaker 7: and the Colts play better at the end of the season, 856 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,839 Speaker 7: and then Carl Rosa Gordon decides to run it all 857 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:06,800 Speaker 7: back with them and say, the arrow's pointing up and 858 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:08,240 Speaker 7: Chris Boward, here's your extension. 859 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 1: JackAM wants to know, and you're the perfect guy for this, James. 860 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 1: Is the transition tag a must once it's placed. Could 861 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:16,360 Speaker 1: the Colts back out on it? 862 00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,480 Speaker 6: I mean they can back out on it as soon 863 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 6: as somebody tries to offer. But I think once you 864 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 6: apply it, it's applied, you could time to a long 865 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,360 Speaker 6: term deal. Yeah no, I guess they mean, like, can 866 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 6: you take the tag off of them and go get 867 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 6: somebody else. I don't think that's how it works at all. 868 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:38,359 Speaker 6: Oh no, once you tag windows, yeah yeah, tag window 869 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 6: ended up. You're locked into that unless somebody else makes 870 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:40,520 Speaker 6: you an. 871 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:40,920 Speaker 10: Offer for him. 872 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:41,279 Speaker 3: Now. 873 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:43,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, somebody else could offer him money that you don't 874 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 1: match and then he's gone without any compensation, or you 875 00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:48,799 Speaker 1: do restructure the contract. 876 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:50,759 Speaker 5: Well and again right now, And James's pointing this out 877 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:51,399 Speaker 5: a lot this week. 878 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 7: Daniel Jones is counting a full thirty seven million against 879 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:58,880 Speaker 7: the cap for this upcoming season. That is very crippling 880 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 7: to your current situation. That's why you're over the cap yep, 881 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 7: right now. So again, Zion Franklin would alleviate some of that. 882 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:09,520 Speaker 7: But if you want Pierce back, if you want to 883 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,200 Speaker 7: make a move at defensive end, you're going to have 884 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,439 Speaker 7: to get Daniel Jones on more of a long term 885 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 7: deal to kind of offset some of the cap significance 886 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:19,839 Speaker 7: here in twenty twenty six. 887 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 4: So the colt screw this up by jumping the gun 888 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 4: like we have to transition tag as of the position 889 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:27,400 Speaker 4: or should they have been maybe played their cards a 890 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 4: little better and said, well, maybe we should look at 891 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:31,719 Speaker 4: Kyler Murray and get them for the vet middilem. Maybe 892 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 4: we should consider franchise tagging Alec Pearson instead and see 893 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:37,120 Speaker 4: what the Daniel Jones market bears. 894 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,399 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean I would have again I've said all along, 895 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 7: I would have more have tagged Pierce. But you know, 896 00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 7: I mean, as far as the Kyler Murray thing, I 897 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,440 Speaker 7: guess you kind of was obvious Arizona was going to 898 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:50,719 Speaker 7: part ways with him. I'm not going to pretend like 899 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,560 Speaker 7: I was locked down the Arizona situation throughout. It seems 900 00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 7: like anytime you do bring in a new coaching staff 901 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 7: and you're a team that clearly needs to rebuild, that 902 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 7: they were doing that, right. 903 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:01,399 Speaker 6: I all do want to clarify this so you can 904 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 6: rescind the transition tag on a player that is allowed. 905 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:07,320 Speaker 6: You just can't take any using on anybody else, So 906 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 6: you can't take it back from Daniel Jones and then 907 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:14,400 Speaker 6: pending on Alec Pearce. But to make it simple, the 908 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 6: Colts will not do that. If they did that, we 909 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 6: would all laugh at them, but probably laugh anyway. 910 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:23,840 Speaker 1: That's where we're at right now. Keep them coming here 911 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:25,839 Speaker 1: at two three, nine, ten seventy. We'll get to as 912 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 1: many Texas we can throughout the course of the morning. 913 00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 1: Can also call us up.

I want to ask him 919 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 1: about some very interesting quotes he had after the game 920 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 1: with Butler and Creighton the other day, where he's just 921 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 1: kind of like, what is this new world of nil 922 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:53,120 Speaker 1: and college basketball all about?

Greg, greg Straw joins us down on the 1005 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:34,200 Speaker 1: Payless Liquors hotline. Greg, you're ready to take up golf 1006 00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 1: just for the Franciscan Fan Golf Invitational. 1007 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 14: Well, nothing against the folks at Franciscan. I am a 1008 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:43,520 Speaker 14: golfer now, I'm not to the tune of one Kevin Bowen, 1009 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:45,920 Speaker 14: but I love the fact that the fan Golf outing 1010 00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:48,920 Speaker 14: is early this year. You know, everybody tries to play 1011 00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:50,600 Speaker 14: them in like June and July and it's like a 1012 00:44:50,680 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 14: bazillion degrees outside. Now April thirtieth, you know, it might 1013 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 14: be twenty eight degrees. But I'm a big friand of 1014 00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:59,400 Speaker 14: Ted Bishop and the legends of Indiana, so that actually 1015 00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,040 Speaker 14: works in my calendar. I just might make an appearance. 1016 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 2: Oh, I like the invitational. 1017 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:03,920 Speaker 9: I like it. 1018 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:05,800 Speaker 1: You know the other thing about April thirtieth around it 1019 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:08,719 Speaker 1: could be seventy five degrees too, could be ye, never know. 1020 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:12,040 Speaker 14: You're playing weather roulette. We'll take usp into the wheel 1021 00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:12,760 Speaker 14: and see what happens. 1022 00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:14,960 Speaker 1: We like to date though, all right, So we've got 1023 00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:17,960 Speaker 1: sectional semis coming up tonight. Man it is. I was 1024 00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 1: looking at the schedule. I was just going to highlight 1025 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 1: a couple of them on the checkdowns today. But it 1026 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:25,120 Speaker 1: is loaded with great stuff tonight, all over the place. 1027 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,000 Speaker 14: Part of that is the fact that that we largely 1028 00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:30,839 Speaker 14: avoided a lot of headline matchups on the first couple 1029 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 14: of nights of the tournament, and with the reformatted a 1030 00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 14: couple of years ago in four A shrinking a little bit. Frankly, 1031 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:40,200 Speaker 14: four A is not overly busy on Tuesday and Wednesday. 1032 00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:42,799 Speaker 14: We had a couple of great games up in Noblesville 1033 00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:49,160 Speaker 14: on Tuesday, with Noblesville outlasting Zionsville and HSC having enough 1034 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:52,759 Speaker 14: ammunition to down Westfield at the end of that game. 1035 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:55,520 Speaker 14: I'll be back to the mill tonight, so I get 1036 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:59,400 Speaker 14: carmelon Noblesville and Hambleton's Southeastern and Fishers, which should be 1037 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 14: fantastic stick I'll put the site that we're at over 1038 00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:06,879 Speaker 14: against any of them, with one exception of one game, 1039 00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 14: the headline game in the state this year they are 1040 00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:14,480 Speaker 14: or this night in this this round probably is Pike 1041 00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:17,600 Speaker 14: and playing Field, two top five teams that will be 1042 00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:20,360 Speaker 14: facing each other. Uh And and that was kind of 1043 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:25,320 Speaker 14: the one example of two potential state finals contenders or 1044 00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:27,400 Speaker 14: teams that are going to play deep into the tournament 1045 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:29,759 Speaker 14: squaring off against other in the opening round. 1046 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, that should be a really good one, just because 1047 00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 6: I know Isaiah Hill on Pike side, I believe he's 1048 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 6: a junior, and then you got Noah Smith, He's a 1049 00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:41,400 Speaker 6: senior on the nineteen. Those two are the headliner and 1050 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,640 Speaker 6: playing players in the state. But Rake, when you look 1051 00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:47,440 Speaker 6: at this Fisher's team, I do want to ask, I 1052 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 6: believe CJ CJ. Gardner, Jason Gardner could be coming back tonight. 1053 00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 6: And if that is the case, how big of a 1054 00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:57,279 Speaker 6: joke would that beat and already juggernaut of a team? 1055 00:46:57,840 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 2: Right? 1056 00:46:58,040 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 14: And that's the thing to point out is that he 1057 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:03,399 Speaker 14: is by far their highest level national recruit and one 1058 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:06,440 Speaker 14: of many great players they've got on the team. He 1059 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 14: hasn't played since the last time that Hale the Southeastern 1060 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:11,200 Speaker 14: played Fishers, and that was all the way back on 1061 00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:15,439 Speaker 14: December the nineteenth. He is expected to play in tonight's game, 1062 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,880 Speaker 14: and you know he's going to make them better. Obviously, 1063 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:24,160 Speaker 14: I think there is a period of adjustment. But let's 1064 00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:27,840 Speaker 14: note the fact that you know they've won basically eighteen 1065 00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:32,759 Speaker 14: games without him. Maybe some games have been closer than 1066 00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 14: you would have expected. And this is a very good 1067 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 14: team that's gotten better as the season has gone along, 1068 00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 14: because they really returned two players that were rotational pieces 1069 00:47:43,680 --> 00:47:45,600 Speaker 14: for him last year. Three Now you had a couple 1070 00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 14: of move ins. You also add you guys developing as 1071 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:52,120 Speaker 14: the season has gone along. But no, this takes the 1072 00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:54,160 Speaker 14: best team in the state and an unbeaten team in 1073 00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 14: the state and makes them better. But because of the competition, 1074 00:47:57,719 --> 00:47:59,560 Speaker 14: they would have to play the next couple of nights. 1075 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:02,600 Speaker 14: I still don't think that they're an unbeatable team. They're 1076 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:04,799 Speaker 14: absolutely the best team in the state. But are they 1077 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:06,799 Speaker 14: untouchable Though they're not, there. 1078 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:10,320 Speaker 7: Are some questions about Kaimagrew his availability or Fishers tonight 1079 00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:12,560 Speaker 7: from a big man's standpoint, so something to keep an 1080 00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,279 Speaker 7: eye on Fisher's hs the second game. Greg greag strong Company. 1081 00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:17,719 Speaker 7: Of course, I'll have you covered there. Carmel Mobilesville. We'll 1082 00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:18,600 Speaker 7: lead things off. 1083 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:21,520 Speaker 5: What's the most wide open class Rake here as the 1084 00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:22,800 Speaker 5: boys tournament is underway. 1085 00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:27,839 Speaker 14: You know, I would say probably one A. I think 1086 00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:30,880 Speaker 14: there's great parody in four A. But you've got great teams, 1087 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:34,080 Speaker 14: you know, whether it's it's pikeing Fishers in the championship, 1088 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,759 Speaker 14: or it's a crown Point that finally kind of makes 1089 00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:39,719 Speaker 14: their way through, or or you know, if somebody were 1090 00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:41,680 Speaker 14: knock off fishers in the section on the southern half 1091 00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:46,120 Speaker 14: of the bracket, you know, Pike l n Mount Vernon, 1092 00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:48,120 Speaker 14: can they make a run, you know behind Luke Grdle. 1093 00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:50,200 Speaker 14: So you've got a lot of different candidates. There's a 1094 00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:52,839 Speaker 14: favorite to two. I can point to three as it's 1095 00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:56,560 Speaker 14: pretty cut and dry. Does Cathedral have something for Silver Creek? 1096 00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:58,440 Speaker 14: And I think that's kind of the end of the 1097 00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:02,320 Speaker 14: conversation because those two teams have been that good two A. 1098 00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:04,200 Speaker 14: You can kind of point to Park Heritage, so they 1099 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:07,120 Speaker 14: got taken to overtime the opening night at green Castle, 1100 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 14: and there's other good two A teams around them. But 1101 00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:13,920 Speaker 14: I would almost say one A slash two A. But 1102 00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 14: in one A Couch is unbeaten. Bar Reeves got one loss. 1103 00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:20,120 Speaker 14: They just won at Legodi on Wednesday in their sectional opener, 1104 00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:22,319 Speaker 14: so I can point the favorites. It's probably a little 1105 00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:25,160 Speaker 14: more open Kevin in the smaller classes than it is 1106 00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:26,120 Speaker 14: in the larger wins this. 1107 00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:28,759 Speaker 7: Year obviously, Greg Greg Shaw, that is the voice you hear. 1108 00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:30,800 Speaker 7: You heard him earlier on a Gary Harris highlight that 1109 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:32,080 Speaker 7: we played in the seven o'clock. 1110 00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:33,319 Speaker 5: Now we're rake. 1111 00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:35,400 Speaker 7: I wanted to ask you this last week when we 1112 00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 7: were at the combine. So I hope it's not too 1113 00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:39,640 Speaker 7: off the wall. But you know, you look at some 1114 00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:42,759 Speaker 7: mock drafts right now and we could very well see 1115 00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:46,520 Speaker 7: a Lawrence North High School product, Omar Cooper junior and 1116 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:50,400 Speaker 7: a Westfield High School product and Dylan Theneman both go 1117 00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:54,359 Speaker 7: and round one. Now, if I donut countied it up, 1118 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:58,040 Speaker 7: what do you think the last time is the Donut 1119 00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:00,880 Speaker 7: County slash Indianapolis have produced two first round picks in 1120 00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:01,720 Speaker 7: the same draft class. 1121 00:50:02,200 --> 00:50:04,240 Speaker 14: I'm not sure it's happened. Has it happened? 1122 00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:05,080 Speaker 2: Have you looked this up? 1123 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,879 Speaker 5: So Zach Martin, you know, first round pick. 1124 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:10,040 Speaker 7: You know, I've been trying to think of maybe some 1125 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:13,080 Speaker 7: others that would have fallen into that category. 1126 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:16,200 Speaker 5: You know, you have your car offices. You know it's 1127 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:17,359 Speaker 5: it's not like you have a lot. 1128 00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:20,959 Speaker 7: Again from an Indianapolis standpoint period, this isn't the NBA draft, 1129 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:23,920 Speaker 7: but so my guests would be, it hasn't happened in 1130 00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:24,799 Speaker 7: a long long time. 1131 00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:28,040 Speaker 5: But I said, I need to go to the encyclopedia. 1132 00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:29,759 Speaker 14: So I ask you so here, So here is what 1133 00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:33,279 Speaker 14: here's here's the thought that hit my mind earlier this week. 1134 00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:36,400 Speaker 14: And we've we've got some old promos or an occasionally 1135 00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:38,960 Speaker 14: on the ISC Sports Network, and we've got one from 1136 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:43,680 Speaker 14: a a Donovan McCully game tying shot against Fishers like 1137 00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:46,160 Speaker 14: five years ago. And I'm looking on the screen and 1138 00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:48,239 Speaker 14: I go, there's two guys that might have their name, 1139 00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:50,040 Speaker 14: there's gonna have their name called the NFL draft that 1140 00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:52,840 Speaker 14: are in that shot in a basketball promo. Because Donovan 1141 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:55,719 Speaker 14: and Omar were high school football and basketball teammate sure 1142 00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:59,440 Speaker 14: at Lawrence North. And so that thought struck me immediately. 1143 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:03,400 Speaker 14: When was Pete Warner drafted? 1144 00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:04,839 Speaker 2: By what I say? 1145 00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:07,000 Speaker 5: I want to say he was in the second round 1146 00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:07,919 Speaker 5: or third round? 1147 00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:09,240 Speaker 1: Right, right? Warrener? 1148 00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 14: You get the idea, right, you know, and this year 1149 00:51:14,200 --> 00:51:16,759 Speaker 14: you throw in Kayden Curry into that mix as well, 1150 00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:19,640 Speaker 14: So I mean of this year's group. So it's this 1151 00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:22,680 Speaker 14: is a pretty special class we potentially have this year, 1152 00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:25,920 Speaker 14: not just because of Indiana University, because of other talented 1153 00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:26,440 Speaker 14: players too. 1154 00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:29,200 Speaker 5: Pete Warner's sixtieth overall and twenty twelve months at the 1155 00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:30,640 Speaker 5: end of round two. 1156 00:51:31,160 --> 00:51:34,960 Speaker 1: Yeh, Greg want to ask you too about the retirement 1157 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 1: from high school coaching. Former Butler guard Zach Hahn stepping 1158 00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:42,120 Speaker 1: down after twelve season at center Grove wants to spend 1159 00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:44,560 Speaker 1: more time with his family. Certainly on his term, he's 1160 00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:47,800 Speaker 1: done nothing but win there. What kind of impact and 1161 00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:49,520 Speaker 1: effect does that have moving forward? 1162 00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:51,680 Speaker 14: I was frankly having at tax with a coaching buddy 1163 00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:53,640 Speaker 14: of mine yesterday, and this had been kind of an 1164 00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:57,319 Speaker 14: open secret that it was that Zach was probably going 1165 00:51:57,400 --> 00:52:00,400 Speaker 14: to step away. You see, a lot more coach is 1166 00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 14: doing this just because there is so much that is 1167 00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:05,879 Speaker 14: asked of them from a time standpoint from summer ball, 1168 00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:08,960 Speaker 14: and you know, the school of that size kind of 1169 00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:11,719 Speaker 14: I wouldn't say you're not running the program, but you're 1170 00:52:11,800 --> 00:52:13,800 Speaker 14: kind of guiding, like the youth program at everybody's on 1171 00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:17,200 Speaker 14: the same page. You are asking a lot, and so 1172 00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:19,759 Speaker 14: I respect the heck out of somebody that says, you 1173 00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:22,920 Speaker 14: know what I can't commit one hundred percent of this anymore. 1174 00:52:23,360 --> 00:52:25,120 Speaker 14: So hence I don't want to be the guy that 1175 00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:28,880 Speaker 14: does this. Maybe he'll get back into coaching at some 1176 00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:31,440 Speaker 14: point in time down the line. He's a really smart mind. 1177 00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 14: Was an assistant coach for Mark James at Ben Davis 1178 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:38,000 Speaker 14: after he got done playing at Butler. I wish him 1179 00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 14: nothing but the best. If he gets back in at 1180 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,680 Speaker 14: some point in time, great, and if not, God bless him. 1181 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:46,879 Speaker 14: And whenever you can leave a school as the all 1182 00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:49,640 Speaker 14: time winning as coach at that school, You've done a 1183 00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:50,279 Speaker 14: heck of a job. 1184 00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:52,920 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what I do the same thing, Rake. 1185 00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:55,040 Speaker 6: If I just started coaching out of school with which 1186 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:57,080 Speaker 6: you're starting its basketball program, that's the only way that 1187 00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:57,600 Speaker 6: would happen. 1188 00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:00,839 Speaker 14: But also, I'm looking forward to the James Boyd Charter 1189 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:02,000 Speaker 14: School taking the floor about me. 1190 00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:03,640 Speaker 3: Hey, yeah, you know they're popping up a little more 1191 00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 3: these days. 1192 00:53:04,120 --> 00:53:05,640 Speaker 6: You get a little and I own money, you know, 1193 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:07,400 Speaker 6: to float over from a couple different states, maybe you 1194 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:07,839 Speaker 6: can happen. 1195 00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:09,880 Speaker 3: But I do want to pivot a little bits of 1196 00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 3: Colts Rake. 1197 00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:14,160 Speaker 6: When you look at the decision to tag Daniel Jones, 1198 00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:16,600 Speaker 6: which will allow Alec Pierce to become a free agent. 1199 00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:20,279 Speaker 3: Do you think the Colts made the right decision in 1200 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:21,080 Speaker 3: who to tag? 1201 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:24,480 Speaker 14: I would say this, this is all going to be 1202 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:29,520 Speaker 14: about what happens on Monday. If you had to go 1203 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,320 Speaker 14: into this offseason, you had to find a way to 1204 00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:34,759 Speaker 14: keep Daniel Jones and Alec Pierce, and if you don't 1205 00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:37,400 Speaker 14: accomplish both of those, it was a failure. 1206 00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:39,480 Speaker 10: And so I'm not. 1207 00:53:41,080 --> 00:53:43,360 Speaker 14: I don't think the decision has been made yet, just 1208 00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:47,359 Speaker 14: because obviously for age don't hit until Monday. I think 1209 00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:49,200 Speaker 14: there's a bit more nerve wracking a lot of us 1210 00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:52,000 Speaker 14: expected it to be. But if both those guys in 1211 00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:55,080 Speaker 14: our contract for this team next year, then you didn't 1212 00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:55,600 Speaker 14: do your job. 1213 00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 1: Great, always a pleasure to talk to.

But I'll 1227 00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 6: certainly be scoreboard watching via Twitter for playing Field and 1228 00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:34,480 Speaker 6: Pike wed. 1229 00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:37,160 Speaker 7: Raked a quad box it up on ISC. Can we 1230 00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:39,759 Speaker 7: get like a little you know, red zone quad box action? 1231 00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:43,640 Speaker 6: You do think that Friday to your point about that, KB, 1232 00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 6: I do think that the streams are so much better 1233 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,520 Speaker 6: now than they were when I was in high school, 1234 00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:51,759 Speaker 6: what twelve years ago at this point, because when I 1235 00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:52,080 Speaker 6: was in. 1236 00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:55,359 Speaker 3: School, it was just me or somebody else. 1237 00:54:56,600 --> 00:54:59,320 Speaker 6: Remember forgetting to move the camera and you might, you know, 1238 00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:01,680 Speaker 6: get it uploaded somewhere and it wasn't live. 1239 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:03,800 Speaker 5: We're getting to move the camera. That's just so funny. 1240 00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:05,359 Speaker 7: Now the balls on the other side of the floor, 1241 00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:07,439 Speaker 7: where's the freshman kid up there to move the camera? 1242 00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:11,839 Speaker 6: And now you have the kids who like do the broadcasting. Yeah, 1243 00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:14,280 Speaker 6: so I've enjoyed the evolution. 1244 00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:14,440 Speaker 10: Of it for sure. 1245 00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:17,319 Speaker 1: Well, even IC does so many games throughout the week. 1246 00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:20,120 Speaker 1: Now there's so many you can just watch every night. Yeah, 1247 00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:23,160 Speaker 1: it's a lot of fun. It's two through nine, ten 1248 00:55:23,239 --> 00:55:24,680 Speaker 1: seventy is the fan text on you want to get 1249 00:55:24,680 --> 00:55:26,279 Speaker 1: in a lot of people talking about the Colts still, 1250 00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:28,680 Speaker 1: and we've been discussing that all morning long. As free 1251 00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:31,840 Speaker 1: agency comes into play starting on Monday. We've seen a 1252 00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:34,400 Speaker 1: bunch of trades over the last couple of days, transition 1253 00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:38,960 Speaker 1: tag on Daniel Jones, rumor yesterday the Zaire Franklin might 1254 00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:41,680 Speaker 1: be traded by the Indianapolis Colts. Jimmy the intern Rights. 1255 00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:44,000 Speaker 1: Just a fan perspective, I would take any of the 1256 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:46,760 Speaker 1: starting level quarterbacks from free agency for ten million dollars 1257 00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:49,920 Speaker 1: over Daniel Jones for anything over ten million. I don't 1258 00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:51,759 Speaker 1: think the Colts will sign Kyler Murray because of his 1259 00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:55,200 Speaker 1: commitment issues. I think the stichen will immediately veto that. 1260 00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:58,279 Speaker 1: But there's no question that healthy Kyler is leagues above 1261 00:55:58,360 --> 00:56:00,600 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones and his mobility is a great fit for 1262 00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:04,440 Speaker 1: the Colts. I will add guys that Kyler Murray, as 1263 00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:07,000 Speaker 1: much as I like him, does have his own long, 1264 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:12,000 Speaker 1: lengthy injury history. Like Daniel Jones, he'd been banged up 1265 00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:13,480 Speaker 1: quite a bit throughout his career as well. 1266 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:16,200 Speaker 7: Foot issue last year's I let Jacobe Rissette started all 1267 00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:16,680 Speaker 7: those games. 1268 00:56:17,440 --> 00:56:19,480 Speaker 6: It was a foot last year, And I also think 1269 00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:22,240 Speaker 6: that Jacoby just played so much better than they expected. 1270 00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:24,200 Speaker 2: Honest. 1271 00:56:24,440 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, if you want to look at he's had, he's 1272 00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:30,960 Speaker 1: had an ACL tier an ankle injury in twenty twenty one. 1273 00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:35,160 Speaker 1: In twenty twenty three, he was on reserve physically unable 1274 00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:38,400 Speaker 1: to perform lists because of recovering from the ACL. Twenty 1275 00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:40,920 Speaker 1: twenty four, he had a knee injury that kept him 1276 00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:43,640 Speaker 1: out in week two his rookie season in twenty nineteen, 1277 00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:46,920 Speaker 1: and a major hamstring injury that bothered him throughout. So 1278 00:56:47,040 --> 00:56:49,279 Speaker 1: he's just he's another guy. That's I guess, like a 1279 00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:51,319 Speaker 1: lot of guys in the NFL. Now you get banged up. 1280 00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:54,920 Speaker 1: Can you count on very many quarterbacks for fifteen, sixteen, 1281 00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: seventeen games anymore? There's a few, but not many. 1282 00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:59,880 Speaker 5: Are we grasping for straws when it comes to good 1283 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:00,840 Speaker 5: news on Alec Peerce? 1284 00:57:02,040 --> 00:57:02,200 Speaker 9: Yes? 1285 00:57:02,520 --> 00:57:04,200 Speaker 3: So that's the question I want to ask.

But the point is no, 1331 00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:53,720 Speaker 6: I don't believe that's anything. As far as this is, 1332 00:58:54,400 --> 00:58:56,440 Speaker 6: Alex Pierce never talked before. He talked a couple of 1333 00:58:56,480 --> 00:58:59,280 Speaker 6: days to go to Kay Adams. This is we gonna 1334 00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:01,080 Speaker 6: use whatever we can to get a couple more dollars 1335 00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:03,960 Speaker 6: out of you, and we still might leave great leverage. 1336 00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:06,520 Speaker 3: Which leads me to my question that I've been teasing. 1337 00:59:06,280 --> 00:59:10,400 Speaker 6: For over an hour now. But we've talked about Michael 1338 00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:14,000 Speaker 6: Pittman Junior being like a cut candidate. Can you cut 1339 00:59:14,080 --> 00:59:16,560 Speaker 6: him and create enough cap, say for Alec Pierce? Like, 1340 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:18,960 Speaker 6: can you actually do that without knowing you're gonna get 1341 00:59:18,960 --> 00:59:20,080 Speaker 6: Ali Pierce to come back for sure? 1342 00:59:21,080 --> 00:59:21,240 Speaker 2: Like that? 1343 00:59:21,560 --> 00:59:22,200 Speaker 3: I've thought about that. 1344 00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:25,400 Speaker 6: I think he has more leverage and I probably thought 1345 00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:29,640 Speaker 6: of at the time, But you can't really afford to 1346 00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:33,480 Speaker 6: make a decision. I don't think so. On Michael Pittman Jr. 1347 00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:38,320 Speaker 6: If you don't have Alec Pierce in tow because if 1348 00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:40,439 Speaker 6: you lose both, what are we talking about? 1349 00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:43,320 Speaker 4: I only it could be a realistic possibility that, depending 1350 00:59:43,360 --> 00:59:45,760 Speaker 4: on like the cap situation, not only could you lose 1351 00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:48,439 Speaker 4: Alec Pierce to free agency, you might have to cut 1352 00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:52,240 Speaker 4: Michael Pittman Junr. And you traded ad Mitchell, so three 1353 00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:54,760 Speaker 4: of your wide receivers from twenty twenty five would be 1354 00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:56,640 Speaker 4: gone in the twenty twenty six offseason. 1355 00:59:56,680 --> 00:59:58,680 Speaker 6: That's why I think Michael Pittman Junior should probably just 1356 00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:00,720 Speaker 6: look at them and say, well, I'm not taking a 1357 01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:02,680 Speaker 6: pay cut until y'all figure out what's going. 1358 01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:04,080 Speaker 1: On with him. What was it back in the day? 1359 01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:04,360 Speaker 9: Uh? 1360 01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:07,280 Speaker 5: Please excuse my dear aunt Sally? 1361 01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:07,720 Speaker 2: Yea? 1362 01:00:08,200 --> 01:00:09,680 Speaker 5: Was that the order of operations? 1363 01:00:09,840 --> 01:00:10,400 Speaker 3: Pim dos? 1364 01:00:13,240 --> 01:00:15,000 Speaker 5: Boy, I'm not I'm not familiar that. 1365 01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:16,400 Speaker 3: I'm with you, James, I know what you mean. 1366 01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:20,200 Speaker 6: That's literally the acronym you just spent. He lord, we 1367 01:00:20,320 --> 01:00:21,520 Speaker 6: know who paid attention in school? 1368 01:00:22,320 --> 01:00:29,000 Speaker 1: Sounds like James the further you get away from school, 1369 01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:31,160 Speaker 1: but less likely you are to remember those things. 1370 01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:35,040 Speaker 5: Was that the was that the p parenth the season? 1371 01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:35,400 Speaker 9: Not? 1372 01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:37,600 Speaker 6: Now I'm gonna say my litin education wasn't that good? 1373 01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:39,120 Speaker 6: Because I don't remember anything else beyond. 1374 01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:43,200 Speaker 5: That he maybe xpone order of operations. I asked to 1375 01:00:43,320 --> 01:00:44,600 Speaker 5: lead off the show today. 1376 01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:48,600 Speaker 7: Before Alec Pierce signs on the dotted line, do the 1377 01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:51,439 Speaker 7: Colts have to sign Daniel Jones on the dotted line 1378 01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:53,800 Speaker 7: for the long term deal? But we played the Alec 1379 01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:58,000 Speaker 7: Peerce comments from yesterday that man loves Daniel Jones. He 1380 01:00:58,240 --> 01:01:01,720 Speaker 7: is a huge believer in Daniel Jones. But he also 1381 01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:04,080 Speaker 7: made it very clear he wants to make sure Daniel 1382 01:01:04,120 --> 01:01:06,640 Speaker 7: Jones is here long term. So when you start ordering 1383 01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:09,360 Speaker 7: all this out, James, you mentioned Michael Pittman Jr. Like, 1384 01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:11,760 Speaker 7: what is the order to all of this? They have 1385 01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:14,840 Speaker 7: to create some cap space. Yeah, that's a foregone conclusion. 1386 01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:16,800 Speaker 7: That's why you're seeing some of the Sire Franklin news. 1387 01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:21,280 Speaker 7: But like, what is the domino to all of this? 1388 01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:25,120 Speaker 7: Because they need cap space, yes, but they also probably 1389 01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:28,240 Speaker 7: want insurance just in case things don't go well with 1390 01:01:28,400 --> 01:01:32,400 Speaker 7: Pierce right or Jones. But again Pierce has said I 1391 01:01:33,800 --> 01:01:35,600 Speaker 7: one of the reasons that I would want to return 1392 01:01:35,600 --> 01:01:37,760 Speaker 7: would be to have Daniel Jones their long term. So 1393 01:01:37,880 --> 01:01:41,000 Speaker 7: that means it's Jones first, and then Jones has to 1394 01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:43,480 Speaker 7: be first, but then after that. I'm a little like 1395 01:01:43,600 --> 01:01:47,200 Speaker 7: what happens after that, what's next? Like you need handshape, 1396 01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:49,800 Speaker 7: is Daniel Jones. You need handshake agreements, you need word 1397 01:01:49,840 --> 01:01:51,560 Speaker 7: of mouth, you need a whole lot of trust, I 1398 01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:55,120 Speaker 7: think to fit all this puzzle together. Because again, when 1399 01:01:55,160 --> 01:01:58,040 Speaker 7: you say, Michael Pittman Jr. In an ideal world, you 1400 01:01:58,120 --> 01:02:00,560 Speaker 7: would do the restructure, cut whatever you want to do 1401 01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:04,480 Speaker 7: with Pittman today. But again that's what I'm saying, because 1402 01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:06,680 Speaker 7: you do it doesn't mean that all of a sudden, 1403 01:02:06,720 --> 01:02:09,680 Speaker 7: Pierce is gonna say, give you the sharpie, show me 1404 01:02:09,760 --> 01:02:10,439 Speaker 7: the dot in line. 1405 01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:14,240 Speaker 6: Pitt is probably somewhere like well in that restructure and that, 1406 01:02:14,600 --> 01:02:16,640 Speaker 6: you know, getting cut and not making all that money 1407 01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:18,920 Speaker 6: next year. We'll see about that. Get back to me 1408 01:02:19,040 --> 01:02:22,480 Speaker 6: after you figure it out with your other receiver. I mean, 1409 01:02:22,680 --> 01:02:23,760 Speaker 6: what's stopping it from doing that? 1410 01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:26,280 Speaker 1: If only Chris Powder would just call us up and 1411 01:02:26,360 --> 01:02:28,160 Speaker 1: let us know what his plans are and how he 1412 01:02:28,240 --> 01:02:29,120 Speaker 1: plans on doing all this. 1413 01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:31,960 Speaker 5: But you can make a argument I don't know if 1414 01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:32,680 Speaker 5: he truly knows. 1415 01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:35,000 Speaker 7: And I don't say that as like a you know, 1416 01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:37,960 Speaker 7: Chris Power can't do anything right, Like I just say, 1417 01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:40,520 Speaker 7: I think there's a lot of unknowns with this, and 1418 01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:43,240 Speaker 7: there's a lot of just still up in the air 1419 01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:46,680 Speaker 7: nature to how the next handful of days are going 1420 01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:47,360 Speaker 7: to play out. 1421 01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:51,120 Speaker 1: Here, a lot of great stuff to be answered in 1422 01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:53,240 Speaker 1: the National Football League over the next seven days or so. 1423 01:02:53,360 --> 01:02:55,040 Speaker 1: It's gonna be fascinating and we will have it for 1424 01:02:55,160 --> 01:02:57,720 Speaker 1: you live as it happens all day, every day right 1425 01:02:57,760 --> 01:02:59,480 Speaker 1: here at ninety three five one ill seven to five 1426 01:02:59,560 --> 01:03:03,000 Speaker 1: the fan looking forward to that, Mark Dkton, Let's check 1427 01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:03,400 Speaker 1: it down. 1428 01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:08,680 Speaker 11: Avoiding Shutdown brought to you by the Barbasol Horizon Lea 1429 01:03:08,840 --> 01:03:10,360 Speaker 11: Basketball Champion. 1430 01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:12,160 Speaker 10: Chips Marsh Stars here. 1431 01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:17,800 Speaker 11: The Barbarisol Horizon Leave Basketball Champion Hips L Marsh eight 1432 01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:19,439 Speaker 11: through Chen tickets and more at. 1433 01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:22,080 Speaker 10: Hoisonleague dot com slashing indeed all right. 1434 01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:24,280 Speaker 1: A lot of news taking place throughout the National Football League, 1435 01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:26,120 Speaker 1: a lot of whispers, a lot of rumors as well. 1436 01:03:26,280 --> 01:03:28,440 Speaker 1: One thing we do know has taking place is that 1437 01:03:28,520 --> 01:03:31,280 Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears have traded DJ Moore, the wide receiver, 1438 01:03:31,640 --> 01:03:34,960 Speaker 1: to the Buffalo Bills, exchanging some draft picks as well. 1439 01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:37,840 Speaker 1: In that one, there's also rumors that the New England 1440 01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:42,280 Speaker 1: Patriots might be interested in trading for aj Brown. If 1441 01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:45,960 Speaker 1: those we know that Moore is now filling a spot 1442 01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:48,840 Speaker 1: for Buffalo. If we saw Brown go to New England, 1443 01:03:49,200 --> 01:03:51,240 Speaker 1: what does that do to the market for Alec Pearce 1444 01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:53,960 Speaker 1: and does that help the Colts Kevin Bone? 1445 01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:56,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think maybe more so than the song choice 1446 01:03:56,680 --> 01:04:00,720 Speaker 5: Alec Pierce is having on Instagram. Yes, I would Buffalo 1447 01:04:01,200 --> 01:04:03,160 Speaker 5: would have been a team that had some interest in 1448 01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:04,160 Speaker 5: an Alec Pearson. 1449 01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:05,880 Speaker 7: I would guess that this takes him out of that. 1450 01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:08,200 Speaker 7: Now again, I don't think that. To me, it's a 1451 01:04:08,200 --> 01:04:10,680 Speaker 7: difference between the Daniel Jones and Alix Pierce thing. To me, 1452 01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:14,680 Speaker 7: the realistic potential suitors for Daniel Jones is about two 1453 01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:17,800 Speaker 7: or three teams. The realistic suitors for Alec Pearce, I 1454 01:04:17,840 --> 01:04:20,800 Speaker 7: think is much more than that, so it doesn't dry 1455 01:04:20,840 --> 01:04:23,760 Speaker 7: out the entire market. But yeah, I mean Buffalo is 1456 01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:25,880 Speaker 7: a team that I think would have had some interest 1457 01:04:25,920 --> 01:04:28,880 Speaker 7: and obviously their quarterback situation checks the box of what 1458 01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:30,320 Speaker 7: Alec Pierce stated the other day. 1459 01:04:30,280 --> 01:04:31,680 Speaker 1: And I've read more and more of the last twenty 1460 01:04:31,720 --> 01:04:33,600 Speaker 1: four hours that maybe the San Francisco forty nine ers 1461 01:04:33,600 --> 01:04:35,560 Speaker 1: would be interested in Alec Pierce. Have you heard anything 1462 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:35,880 Speaker 1: about that. 1463 01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:39,560 Speaker 6: James, I have not, But again, what team in the 1464 01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:43,760 Speaker 6: NFL wouldn't want a deep threat receiver of his caliber, 1465 01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:47,440 Speaker 6: who's young, who is pretty durable, and doesn't complain about anything. 1466 01:04:47,720 --> 01:04:49,360 Speaker 1: All right, keep it tuned here to ninety three five 1467 01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:51,160 Speaker 1: one oh seven five the Fan for the very latest 1468 01:04:51,200 --> 01:04:53,680 Speaker 1: on what the Cults are doing. Pacers continue their West 1469 01:04:53,680 --> 01:04:56,280 Speaker 1: coast road trip tonight. They'll be playing the Lakers into 1470 01:04:56,360 --> 01:04:59,600 Speaker 1: Los Angeles ten o'clock air time, ten thirty tip time 1471 01:04:59,640 --> 01:05:02,560 Speaker 1: here on the Fan. Pacers have lost seven straight. The 1472 01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:05,880 Speaker 1: question is who will be playing for the Pacers or 1473 01:05:05,960 --> 01:05:08,320 Speaker 1: he'd think most of the guys, But who's going to 1474 01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:09,800 Speaker 1: be playing for the Lakers tonight? 1475 01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:13,000 Speaker 6: James, Boy, Well, we saw Lebron go down with the 1476 01:05:13,040 --> 01:05:16,200 Speaker 6: elbow yesterday and he said he's day to day. He's 1477 01:05:16,240 --> 01:05:19,160 Speaker 6: also what forty one, so it wouldn't shock me if 1478 01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:21,200 Speaker 6: he is not playing. So we'll see how to shake 1479 01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:21,440 Speaker 6: this up. 1480 01:05:21,600 --> 01:05:23,840 Speaker 1: And Luka Doncins, she said, played a bunch of minutes 1481 01:05:23,920 --> 01:05:24,560 Speaker 1: last night too. 1482 01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:26,840 Speaker 7: Right, I think he was at forty Yes, as James said, 1483 01:05:26,880 --> 01:05:28,920 Speaker 7: Lebron went down at the elbow. He did come back 1484 01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:30,560 Speaker 7: into the game and finished it. It was a pretty 1485 01:05:30,600 --> 01:05:33,120 Speaker 7: close game there late with the Nuggets and Obviously, they're 1486 01:05:33,120 --> 01:05:35,040 Speaker 7: traveling on a back to back, so sounds. 1487 01:05:34,800 --> 01:05:37,120 Speaker 5: Like the Pacers will play their guys as they. 1488 01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:39,640 Speaker 7: Continue to lose seven straight now since the All Star break, 1489 01:05:39,720 --> 01:05:41,640 Speaker 7: so they can sprinkle in some wins. Like if you 1490 01:05:41,720 --> 01:05:44,280 Speaker 7: are a Pacer fan and you're starting to get like 1491 01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:46,960 Speaker 7: whatever withdrawal, and you're scratching your neck a little bit, here, 1492 01:05:47,440 --> 01:05:49,280 Speaker 7: you could feel free to root for a win. You 1493 01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:51,880 Speaker 7: are in a safe space, I think, to root for 1494 01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:56,200 Speaker 7: a win stringing five or six together. Probably not, but yes, 1495 01:05:56,320 --> 01:05:58,439 Speaker 7: a win or two wouldn't be the end of the world. 1496 01:05:58,480 --> 01:06:01,040 Speaker 1: I'm here for one here and there Sunday at Portland, 1497 01:06:01,080 --> 01:06:03,600 Speaker 1: Tuesday at Sacramento as they finish up that West Coast 1498 01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:06,720 Speaker 1: road trip. College basketball, the regular season will come to 1499 01:06:06,800 --> 01:06:10,040 Speaker 1: a close around here this weekend. Indiana plays at Ohio 1500 01:06:10,120 --> 01:06:13,520 Speaker 1: State at five thirty Tomorrow, that'll be on Fox Wisconsinent 1501 01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:16,800 Speaker 1: Purdue at four pm on CBS. Very special senior day, 1502 01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:19,800 Speaker 1: as all senior days are, but this one really unique 1503 01:06:19,840 --> 01:06:21,400 Speaker 1: for Purdue Tomorrow. Kevin, Yeah, I. 1504 01:06:21,360 --> 01:06:23,360 Speaker 5: Think it'll be an awesome scene inside of Mackie. 1505 01:06:24,200 --> 01:06:26,320 Speaker 7: The careers of Braden Smith and Fletcher Lawyer and tre 1506 01:06:26,400 --> 01:06:29,240 Speaker 7: Kaufman ran about as illustrious as you've had in that 1507 01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:32,600 Speaker 7: program's history there. So Rob Blackman join us here in 1508 01:06:32,640 --> 01:06:35,160 Speaker 7: a little bit talk more about that and should be 1509 01:06:35,200 --> 01:06:38,400 Speaker 7: a cool moment there inside of Mackie. And obviously for Indiana, 1510 01:06:38,840 --> 01:06:42,760 Speaker 7: it's just a massive, massive game at Ohio State squarely 1511 01:06:42,840 --> 01:06:44,840 Speaker 7: on the bubble. Indiana's locked into the ten seed in 1512 01:06:44,880 --> 01:06:47,240 Speaker 7: the Big Ten Tournament, so I believe Wednesday at five 1513 01:06:47,240 --> 01:06:50,320 Speaker 7: point thirty will be their first game there, but they 1514 01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:52,120 Speaker 7: need something of substance. 1515 01:06:52,240 --> 01:06:55,160 Speaker 5: This is away from home. Ohio State is right there 1516 01:06:55,200 --> 01:06:58,120 Speaker 5: on the bubble as well, huge huge. 1517 01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:00,760 Speaker 4: Suakin Ohio State in Indiana's either women fell to Ohio 1518 01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:03,240 Speaker 4: State yesterday eighty three fifty nine in the second round 1519 01:07:03,280 --> 01:07:04,840 Speaker 4: of the Big Ten Tournament. 1520 01:07:05,160 --> 01:07:07,439 Speaker 5: Yeah, so I think from a women's side, Notre Dame 1521 01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:10,760 Speaker 5: is in ball state. We saw make it last year. 1522 01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:12,880 Speaker 5: They have had a very good season, but potentially they 1523 01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:14,960 Speaker 5: could get in. And on the men's side, you know, 1524 01:07:15,000 --> 01:07:18,840 Speaker 5: again Perdue obviously is a lock, and then we'll see it. 1525 01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:20,520 Speaker 5: Could it be Indiana Mid major wives? 1526 01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:22,360 Speaker 7: I saw Indiana State loss last night and they lost 1527 01:07:22,360 --> 01:07:24,520 Speaker 7: to Valpo, but you don't expect Valpo to get on 1528 01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:27,680 Speaker 7: a run. So yes, we are looking at a pretty 1529 01:07:27,800 --> 01:07:30,760 Speaker 7: quiet year from a NINCA tournament standpoint here in the state. 1530 01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:34,400 Speaker 1: Also in college basketball tomorrow, Butler, who finished up their 1531 01:07:34,480 --> 01:07:36,440 Speaker 1: home schedule the other night, Kevin and I were there, 1532 01:07:36,680 --> 01:07:38,360 Speaker 1: They'll be on the road at the Paul at a 1533 01:07:38,520 --> 01:07:41,680 Speaker 1: noon tip off tomorrow FS one and Notre Dame at 1534 01:07:41,720 --> 01:07:44,600 Speaker 1: BC that'll be a noon game on ESPNU.

If those two things happened, we're dancing in 1541 01:07:57,760 --> 01:07:58,320 Speaker 7: the Conference Jurn. 1542 01:07:58,400 --> 01:07:59,600 Speaker 1: What would you say if I told you I didn't 1543 01:07:59,600 --> 01:07:59,920 Speaker 1: fail to. 1544 01:08:03,560 --> 01:08:04,160 Speaker 5: Respectably. 1545 01:08:05,240 --> 01:08:08,200 Speaker 1: Also over at the Game Bridge today, if you're heading 1546 01:08:08,200 --> 01:08:11,840 Speaker 1: over there for the Big Ten women's you've got Washington 1547 01:08:12,160 --> 01:08:16,599 Speaker 1: against UCLA at noon, and then you've got Minnesota UH 1548 01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:21,760 Speaker 1: playing right after that one, and so Illinois Iowa at ten. 1549 01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:24,679 Speaker 1: If you want to go see that one ten the game, 1550 01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:27,599 Speaker 1: that's game ten at six thirty tonight, James Game ten 1551 01:08:28,160 --> 01:08:30,479 Speaker 1: at six thirty.

And as James pointed out earlier, it sounds 1596 01:10:10,280 --> 01:10:13,639 Speaker 5: like we could see the return to action for Jason 1597 01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:17,000 Speaker 5: Tatum tonight with the Celtics. That is ten months removed 1598 01:10:17,479 --> 01:10:21,120 Speaker 5: from his torn achilles so just a timetable it all up. 1599 01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:23,759 Speaker 5: We're talking ten months for Tatum, We're talking about fifteen 1600 01:10:23,880 --> 01:10:26,120 Speaker 5: or sixteen when it's all said and done for Tyrese Haliburton. 1601 01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:29,400 Speaker 5: We're talking what about nine months for Daniel Jones. Harder 1602 01:10:29,439 --> 01:10:31,040 Speaker 5: for a quarterback or harder for a point guard. 1603 01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:34,720 Speaker 1: Quarterback, people are hitting you, they're coming after you, they're 1604 01:10:34,720 --> 01:10:35,479 Speaker 1: trying to take you out. 1605 01:10:35,720 --> 01:10:37,240 Speaker 5: Point guard's got more sudden movements. 1606 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:40,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I probably, I probably roll with Maybe I I 1607 01:10:40,200 --> 01:10:42,600 Speaker 3: probably go with a point guard. Yeah, I might. I 1608 01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:43,400 Speaker 3: might lean towards that. 1609 01:10:43,680 --> 01:10:45,680 Speaker 1: You get hit once wrong the wrong way, though, and 1610 01:10:45,760 --> 01:10:48,960 Speaker 1: that's a lot of force and pressure on that that ankle. 1611 01:10:49,040 --> 01:10:50,439 Speaker 1: I don't know either, neither of us. Probably. 1612 01:10:50,640 --> 01:10:53,120 Speaker 3: I mean, that's the point of playing. You can get hurt, 1613 01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:53,559 Speaker 3: but anything. 1614 01:10:53,640 --> 01:10:55,280 Speaker 6: But I mean, as far as movements go, you can 1615 01:10:55,720 --> 01:10:58,200 Speaker 6: be stationary and still be kind of good. You cannot 1616 01:10:58,200 --> 01:10:59,800 Speaker 6: be stationary point guard and be good at all. 1617 01:11:00,120 --> 01:11:02,280 Speaker 1: NBA all right, Uh, I didn't want to mention this. 1618 01:11:02,320 --> 01:11:04,000 Speaker 1: It's one of my favorite tournaments of the year, non 1619 01:11:04,120 --> 01:11:07,280 Speaker 1: major variety. But they're playing at bay Hill this weekend 1620 01:11:07,320 --> 01:11:11,439 Speaker 1: and Daniel Berger had a sixty three yesterday. But I 1621 01:11:11,479 --> 01:11:14,800 Speaker 1: don't know if you saw John Daly's son. He came 1622 01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:16,479 Speaker 1: in with a two hundred part.

Yeah, 1675 01:13:41,960 --> 01:13:43,559 Speaker 7: you're still playing, but you also have to start thinking 1676 01:13:43,560 --> 01:13:45,880 Speaker 7: about next year. You guys have had a lot of 1677 01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:48,760 Speaker 7: turnover here in recent years. Do you expect a good 1678 01:13:48,760 --> 01:13:50,880 Speaker 7: amount of roster turnover again for next season? 1679 01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:56,320 Speaker 2: You know what? Who knows? You know? 1680 01:13:56,680 --> 01:14:01,439 Speaker 15: The one thing, there's nothing surprises you anymore in this profession, and. 1681 01:14:02,960 --> 01:14:05,479 Speaker 2: It'll be interesting to see. We haven't talked about that yet. 1682 01:14:06,200 --> 01:14:08,960 Speaker 15: I think we'll get through next week and take a 1683 01:14:09,000 --> 01:14:12,040 Speaker 15: deep breath and just sort of see where we are 1684 01:14:13,240 --> 01:14:16,200 Speaker 15: in terms of next year's ruster and putting it together 1685 01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:18,200 Speaker 15: and what we need and all those things. 1686 01:14:19,400 --> 01:14:21,920 Speaker 6: Coach, you all had one two in a row, lost 1687 01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:24,719 Speaker 6: your last two. What do you think needs to change 1688 01:14:25,040 --> 01:14:28,080 Speaker 6: for this weekend's game? And just give yourself a chance 1689 01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:29,920 Speaker 6: to get back on the right track going into the 1690 01:14:29,960 --> 01:14:30,599 Speaker 6: Biggest tournament. 1691 01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:37,400 Speaker 15: Well, we've got to make some shots. You know, we 1692 01:14:37,520 --> 01:14:39,840 Speaker 15: were until we haven't hit two late in the game. 1693 01:14:39,920 --> 01:14:42,479 Speaker 15: We were two for twenty one from three point and 1694 01:14:43,360 --> 01:14:45,720 Speaker 15: I think we made in the last three games. 1695 01:14:46,080 --> 01:14:51,320 Speaker 2: Fifteen threes or whatever it is. And we're getting good looks. 1696 01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:56,160 Speaker 2: They're not going down. But with that said, if if 1697 01:14:56,240 --> 01:14:57,200 Speaker 2: the shots aren't. 1698 01:14:56,960 --> 01:14:59,439 Speaker 15: Falling, that means you got to play harder on the 1699 01:14:59,479 --> 01:15:03,000 Speaker 15: defensive end. And I think that's one of one of 1700 01:15:03,040 --> 01:15:05,920 Speaker 15: the big keys right now of us, just you know, 1701 01:15:06,200 --> 01:15:09,840 Speaker 15: being able to get a little momentum going throughout the 1702 01:15:09,880 --> 01:15:12,600 Speaker 15: course of the game by making some shots. And I 1703 01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:14,840 Speaker 15: think that'll take a lot of the pressure off of 1704 01:15:14,920 --> 01:15:19,280 Speaker 15: our defense on every possession. So that would be my 1705 01:15:19,360 --> 01:15:21,479 Speaker 15: number one thing right now is just putting the ball 1706 01:15:21,479 --> 01:15:22,040 Speaker 15: in the basket. 1707 01:15:22,600 --> 01:15:25,280 Speaker 7: And Butler to Paul coming up here on Saturday, close 1708 01:15:25,320 --> 01:15:26,960 Speaker 7: out the regular season and then off to the Big 1709 01:15:27,000 --> 01:15:30,599 Speaker 7: East Tournament for Thad Amounting Company. Coming next week, Coach, 1710 01:15:30,760 --> 01:15:34,759 Speaker 7: it is a boys Sectional semi final night around the state. Obviously, 1711 01:15:34,800 --> 01:15:36,679 Speaker 7: you guys will be up in Chicago, but I would 1712 01:15:36,720 --> 01:15:39,320 Speaker 7: say given your history and of course being in the 1713 01:15:39,360 --> 01:15:42,759 Speaker 7: state recruiting the state, you maybe have a sectional memory 1714 01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:45,400 Speaker 7: or two, or maybe just a state tournament memory or 1715 01:15:45,439 --> 01:15:48,240 Speaker 7: two from attending a game. Anything come to mind when 1716 01:15:48,280 --> 01:15:51,439 Speaker 7: I bring up the Indian High School boys basketball tournament 1717 01:15:51,520 --> 01:15:54,240 Speaker 7: from your history with it, oh Man. 1718 01:15:55,280 --> 01:15:57,040 Speaker 2: So many, so many memories, be honest with you. 1719 01:15:57,160 --> 01:16:00,160 Speaker 15: I mean I can remember when they had the two 1720 01:16:00,200 --> 01:16:04,200 Speaker 15: games and on a Saturday in Hinklefield House and just 1721 01:16:04,320 --> 01:16:07,080 Speaker 15: going in there to place pack, going in watching games. 1722 01:16:08,160 --> 01:16:12,200 Speaker 15: I remember buying over one night from Columbus to watch 1723 01:16:12,520 --> 01:16:15,200 Speaker 15: Lawrence North, Greg and Michael play and they were playing 1724 01:16:15,280 --> 01:16:18,560 Speaker 15: Cathedral and they were holding the ball and I'm like, 1725 01:16:18,880 --> 01:16:21,560 Speaker 15: oh man, I flew over here to watch. You know 1726 01:16:21,680 --> 01:16:24,920 Speaker 15: it's gonna be four to two or whatever, and finally 1727 01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:30,160 Speaker 15: Cathedral started opening up a little bit. But I remember 1728 01:16:31,240 --> 01:16:34,320 Speaker 15: watching Deshaun Thomas in the state championship game and they 1729 01:16:34,400 --> 01:16:36,840 Speaker 15: got the tip and Deshaun shot like a twenty foot 1730 01:16:37,160 --> 01:16:39,760 Speaker 15: or a twenty eight foot Airbawn Archie Miller was with 1731 01:16:39,920 --> 01:16:41,559 Speaker 15: me and he says, what was that? And I said, away, 1732 01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:45,240 Speaker 15: it gets better, and I think Deshaun went for like 1733 01:16:45,280 --> 01:16:47,880 Speaker 15: thirty five in the state championship game and they wonted. 1734 01:16:48,000 --> 01:16:49,559 Speaker 2: But so many memories. 1735 01:16:49,720 --> 01:16:51,880 Speaker 15: I still one of my greatest of all time is 1736 01:16:51,960 --> 01:16:56,040 Speaker 15: when Scott Skyles was at Plymouth and the day he 1737 01:16:56,200 --> 01:16:57,479 Speaker 15: had at Marcus Square Arena. 1738 01:16:57,560 --> 01:16:59,200 Speaker 2: That day, I mean, that was. That was one of 1739 01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:00,519 Speaker 2: the greatest shows ever seen. 1740 01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:03,760 Speaker 1: That mount of joining us on the payoff slickers, I 1741 01:17:03,800 --> 01:17:05,400 Speaker 1: gave you a lot more than I just gave you 1742 01:17:05,479 --> 01:17:06,439 Speaker 1: a lot more than what you know. 1743 01:17:07,160 --> 01:17:08,960 Speaker 5: It's they're all good. It's funny. Coach. 1744 01:17:09,040 --> 01:17:12,439 Speaker 7: I went to Cathedral and Scott Hicks was my pe 1745 01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:16,600 Speaker 7: teacher and he brought up the Scott Skiles performance so 1746 01:17:16,800 --> 01:17:19,400 Speaker 7: many times. You know, I was born nineteen eighty nine, 1747 01:17:19,479 --> 01:17:23,080 Speaker 7: so obviously it was not around. But in hearing the 1748 01:17:23,160 --> 01:17:25,880 Speaker 7: Skyles performance and just how Scott Skiles was wired. I 1749 01:17:25,920 --> 01:17:28,240 Speaker 7: don't know, you know how close you were with him, 1750 01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:31,160 Speaker 7: but pretty unique cat and put that Plmouth team on 1751 01:17:31,200 --> 01:17:31,519 Speaker 7: his back. 1752 01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:33,000 Speaker 9: No, that was. 1753 01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:36,040 Speaker 15: That was one of the two greatest performances I've ever 1754 01:17:36,120 --> 01:17:37,640 Speaker 15: seen in my life when he did that day and 1755 01:17:37,680 --> 01:17:41,160 Speaker 15: agad like forty and forty four or something in the 1756 01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:41,719 Speaker 15: two games. 1757 01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:41,960 Speaker 12: It was. 1758 01:17:42,080 --> 01:17:42,719 Speaker 2: It was insane. 1759 01:17:43,760 --> 01:17:46,000 Speaker 6: Well, this is also the same Scott Skyles that had 1760 01:17:46,080 --> 01:17:49,080 Speaker 6: twenty two and thirty in the NBA, the thirty being the. 1761 01:17:49,120 --> 01:17:52,800 Speaker 3: Assist still has the record for that so coach.

It was also in 1789 01:19:05,240 --> 01:19:07,240 Speaker 1: the Indie Star after the game the other night, we 1790 01:19:07,360 --> 01:19:11,240 Speaker 1: were quoted as saying, we get calls every day that 1791 01:19:11,320 --> 01:19:14,160 Speaker 1: our guys are being shopped around. Now is everybody's mind 1792 01:19:14,200 --> 01:19:16,080 Speaker 1: where it's supposed to be now? And I guess that's 1793 01:19:16,120 --> 01:19:19,160 Speaker 1: where college basketball is. That's one of the challenges that 1794 01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:22,080 Speaker 1: I probably don't know how to navigate. But where are 1795 01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:25,559 Speaker 1: we with Nil and Butler and guys being poached from 1796 01:19:25,600 --> 01:19:28,560 Speaker 1: one school to another all the time? Like that's just 1797 01:19:28,640 --> 01:19:30,559 Speaker 1: got to keep a coach up at night.

It really is.

I know Mark was excited today, even though 1883 01:23:13,560 --> 01:23:16,040 Speaker 1: he says goodbye to his beloved DJ Moore. You did 1884 01:23:16,240 --> 01:23:19,160 Speaker 1: like the trade package in return for the Bears as 1885 01:23:19,200 --> 01:23:20,400 Speaker 1: they dealt him to the Bills. 1886 01:23:20,520 --> 01:23:23,760 Speaker 4: Correct the second round pick. Very impressive, Well done Mark 1887 01:23:23,800 --> 01:23:24,280 Speaker 4: Ryan Poles. 1888 01:23:24,360 --> 01:23:25,840 Speaker 1: And he was gonna be where he was gonna make 1889 01:23:25,880 --> 01:23:26,799 Speaker 1: it a bunch of money. 1890 01:23:26,560 --> 01:23:27,720 Speaker 3: Too, they say twenty six mil. 1891 01:23:27,880 --> 01:23:28,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1892 01:23:29,280 --> 01:23:32,519 Speaker 1: Also, the Rams are making some moves. They traded with 1893 01:23:32,680 --> 01:23:36,360 Speaker 1: Kansas City for cornerback Trent McDuffie. He was All Pro 1894 01:23:36,560 --> 01:23:38,720 Speaker 1: just a couple of years ago. They gave up the 1895 01:23:38,800 --> 01:23:42,080 Speaker 1: number twenty nine pick in this year's draft, among some 1896 01:23:42,160 --> 01:23:45,960 Speaker 1: other picks, and then they are resigning safety Cam curl 1897 01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:48,360 Speaker 1: So it looks like maybe in the last year of 1898 01:23:48,439 --> 01:23:50,559 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford last year or two, they're trying to load 1899 01:23:50,640 --> 01:23:52,960 Speaker 1: up and do what they can to get back James. 1900 01:23:53,040 --> 01:23:55,439 Speaker 7: Would the Colts get a higher draft pick for trading 1901 01:23:55,479 --> 01:23:58,040 Speaker 7: Anthony Richardson or trading Zira Franklin. 1902 01:23:59,560 --> 01:24:02,479 Speaker 6: Anthony, I think you could actually get a pick for Anthony. 1903 01:24:02,520 --> 01:24:03,840 Speaker 6: I don't think you can get anything for that area 1904 01:24:03,880 --> 01:24:06,120 Speaker 6: right now, to be honest, And that's no disrespect I hear. 1905 01:24:06,640 --> 01:24:08,680 Speaker 7: And like I said, so a team with eight Day 1906 01:24:08,760 --> 01:24:10,600 Speaker 7: three picks, if all of a sudden there's two of 1907 01:24:10,600 --> 01:24:13,120 Speaker 7: those teams competing against each other, you don't think they 1908 01:24:13,160 --> 01:24:15,679 Speaker 7: would say, you know what, let's just give a seventh 1909 01:24:15,760 --> 01:24:17,519 Speaker 7: rounder to the Colts or a sixth round of the Colts. 1910 01:24:17,800 --> 01:24:18,920 Speaker 3: No, I really don't think that. 1911 01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:22,679 Speaker 6: I think for what Zaire Franklin has been in this league, 1912 01:24:23,360 --> 01:24:25,800 Speaker 6: and he's been a pretty good player, especially for where 1913 01:24:25,800 --> 01:24:29,600 Speaker 6: he was drafted. But if you're asking him to do 1914 01:24:29,720 --> 01:24:34,120 Speaker 6: anything that involves coverage, he's a liability in that regard. 1915 01:24:34,640 --> 01:24:36,720 Speaker 6: And then when you look at the season that he 1916 01:24:36,880 --> 01:24:41,120 Speaker 6: had in twenty twenty four, great tackle numbers and don't 1917 01:24:41,120 --> 01:24:44,080 Speaker 6: want to again diminish that, but again, the coverage stuff 1918 01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:46,200 Speaker 6: was not probably where it needed to be. So I 1919 01:24:46,240 --> 01:24:48,360 Speaker 6: think from that standpoint, and also knowing that he's just 1920 01:24:48,479 --> 01:24:52,639 Speaker 6: not that expensive of a player. So if I'm somebody 1921 01:24:52,680 --> 01:24:56,160 Speaker 6: who's thinking I want to pursue Zaire Franklin, I'm rolling 1922 01:24:56,200 --> 01:24:58,240 Speaker 6: the dice. I'm saying he'll be a free agent in 1923 01:24:58,240 --> 01:24:59,479 Speaker 6: a couple of days and I'll be able to get 1924 01:24:59,520 --> 01:24:59,920 Speaker 6: him for nothing. 1925 01:25:00,160 --> 01:25:01,840 Speaker 7: I'd be curious if you know you could do a 1926 01:25:01,920 --> 01:25:05,160 Speaker 7: player we occasionally see that back into the roster players. 1927 01:25:06,040 --> 01:25:07,840 Speaker 3: You know, I do wonder about that too, because I'm like, 1928 01:25:07,880 --> 01:25:09,200 Speaker 3: do what you have to take salary on? 1929 01:25:09,439 --> 01:25:09,800 Speaker 9: For sure? 1930 01:25:10,000 --> 01:25:11,880 Speaker 6: So That's why I think it's probably gonna be not 1931 01:25:12,080 --> 01:25:14,920 Speaker 6: draft or nothing, not as stringe as the NBA and 1932 01:25:15,000 --> 01:25:18,280 Speaker 6: Mansions salaries. No, but yeah, that is definitely a good point. 1933 01:25:18,280 --> 01:25:19,880 Speaker 4: I just think with aar there's going to be a coach. 1934 01:25:19,920 --> 01:25:21,679 Speaker 4: It's like I can fix them, I can get something 1935 01:25:21,720 --> 01:25:22,080 Speaker 4: out of them. 1936 01:25:22,160 --> 01:25:22,400 Speaker 9: We can. 1937 01:25:22,600 --> 01:25:24,599 Speaker 7: We need to make this deal, right, I mean, obviously 1938 01:25:24,600 --> 01:25:27,040 Speaker 7: they're two very different situations, you know they are. It's 1939 01:25:27,080 --> 01:25:29,840 Speaker 7: more of a yes, Mark is laid that well, you know, 1940 01:25:29,880 --> 01:25:33,519 Speaker 7: with Franklin, it's more of a hey, yeah, veteran linebacker whatever, 1941 01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:34,840 Speaker 7: you know, playoff type team. 1942 01:25:35,000 --> 01:25:37,640 Speaker 5: Do you feel that can help you there? 1943 01:25:38,040 --> 01:25:40,000 Speaker 1: All right, lot's going on in the National Football League. 1944 01:25:40,040 --> 01:25:42,080 Speaker 1: Anything that happens, we'll let you know as soon as 1945 01:25:42,120 --> 01:25:43,680 Speaker 1: we know.

I think they 1970 01:27:10,120 --> 01:27:12,760 Speaker 6: did a couple of wins to kind of finish off 1971 01:27:12,840 --> 01:27:16,479 Speaker 6: this regular season slash bigs and tournament to get into 1972 01:27:16,520 --> 01:27:16,920 Speaker 6: the dance. 1973 01:27:17,160 --> 01:27:20,479 Speaker 1: Well, talking about Purdue, they've got Senior Day tomorrow, looking 1974 01:27:20,520 --> 01:27:23,800 Speaker 1: forward to that, and man, our next guest can tell 1975 01:27:23,880 --> 01:27:27,439 Speaker 1: us all about this amazing group of seniors that Purdue 1976 01:27:27,479 --> 01:27:29,639 Speaker 1: has had from beginning to end. You just don't see 1977 01:27:29,680 --> 01:27:32,040 Speaker 1: that very often anymore. And Rob joins us now in 1978 01:27:32,080 --> 01:27:34,519 Speaker 1: the Payless Liquors Hotline, one of the great broadcasters for 1979 01:27:34,680 --> 01:27:38,240 Speaker 1: Purdue basketball. Good morning, Rob. It's that time of year, 1980 01:27:38,360 --> 01:27:40,479 Speaker 1: all kinds of things to talk about right now. What's 1981 01:27:40,560 --> 01:27:43,360 Speaker 1: what's your favorite subject as we start this weekend? 1982 01:27:44,640 --> 01:27:49,439 Speaker 9: Oh? Good one, Jeff, good question. Favorite subject? I'm like you. 1983 01:27:49,840 --> 01:27:51,680 Speaker 9: My favorite subject? Well, I think I'm like you. I 1984 01:27:51,680 --> 01:27:53,640 Speaker 9: shouldn't speak for you, but you were just talking about this. 1985 01:27:54,080 --> 01:27:56,240 Speaker 9: My favorite subject this time of the year is seating. 1986 01:27:56,520 --> 01:27:59,160 Speaker 9: Who is going to end up getting seated where? 1987 01:27:59,439 --> 01:27:59,600 Speaker 5: You know? 1988 01:27:59,840 --> 01:28:02,679 Speaker 9: Due going into that Ohio State game last Sunday, felt 1989 01:28:02,720 --> 01:28:04,640 Speaker 9: pretty comfortable if they could win out, they'd be a 1990 01:28:04,720 --> 01:28:07,639 Speaker 9: two seed. Of course that didn't happen, so now you're 1991 01:28:07,720 --> 01:28:09,920 Speaker 9: kind of clinging to a three seed. But I will 1992 01:28:09,960 --> 01:28:13,120 Speaker 9: say this, and I didn't realize Lenardi had just updated 1993 01:28:13,160 --> 01:28:16,599 Speaker 9: his bracketology stuff, So thank you for sharing. I wouldn't 1994 01:28:16,640 --> 01:28:19,519 Speaker 9: be all upset about having to go to Saint Louis 1995 01:28:20,040 --> 01:28:23,360 Speaker 9: for those first two games. I think Purdue would have 1996 01:28:23,400 --> 01:28:25,240 Speaker 9: a great showing as far as a fan base in 1997 01:28:25,320 --> 01:28:27,360 Speaker 9: Saint Louis. So while I think I'd. 1998 01:28:27,200 --> 01:28:28,160 Speaker 2: Prefer a two seed. 1999 01:28:28,640 --> 01:28:31,000 Speaker 9: If it was a three seed in Saint Louis, I 2000 01:28:31,160 --> 01:28:33,040 Speaker 9: certainly wouldn't be too upset about. 2001 01:28:32,800 --> 01:28:36,320 Speaker 7: That possible second round matchup with Louisville there in a 2002 01:28:36,479 --> 01:28:39,040 Speaker 7: three six game. The Great Rob Blackman's what to see 2003 01:28:39,040 --> 01:28:42,160 Speaker 7: against Senior Day Tomorrow Inside of Mackie Rob, I'm a 2004 01:28:42,240 --> 01:28:44,800 Speaker 7: sucker for Senior Days. I get that they're starting to 2005 01:28:44,840 --> 01:28:48,400 Speaker 7: lose their luster. I don't think tomorrow should be one 2006 01:28:48,439 --> 01:28:51,559 Speaker 7: of those though they does Purdue do it before after 2007 01:28:51,640 --> 01:28:51,920 Speaker 7: the game? 2008 01:28:52,920 --> 01:28:54,840 Speaker 9: They do it after that. Now that it's a bit 2009 01:28:54,880 --> 01:28:57,759 Speaker 9: of a change. Maybe ten years ago or so, Kevin 2010 01:28:59,160 --> 01:29:02,280 Speaker 9: Matt coach Painter used to always do it before and 2011 01:29:02,400 --> 01:29:04,760 Speaker 9: then for whatever reason he was well, I know the 2012 01:29:04,840 --> 01:29:06,840 Speaker 9: reason he was always over the opinion that it was 2013 01:29:06,960 --> 01:29:11,240 Speaker 9: just way too many distractions for everyone involved and maybe 2014 01:29:11,320 --> 01:29:14,759 Speaker 9: the focus wasn't on the game. So he has switched 2015 01:29:14,800 --> 01:29:17,080 Speaker 9: it two post games. So yeah, we do it after 2016 01:29:17,160 --> 01:29:20,439 Speaker 9: the fact now when I. 2017 01:29:21,240 --> 01:29:22,719 Speaker 5: Guess I'll leave it pretty open ended. 2018 01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:26,360 Speaker 7: Is there a particular stat when you look at the 2019 01:29:26,479 --> 01:29:30,599 Speaker 7: Branden Fletcher, Trey Kaufman ren era that really stands out? 2020 01:29:30,640 --> 01:29:33,760 Speaker 7: I saw Chris Foreman, the Great Sid mentioned the other 2021 01:29:33,880 --> 01:29:37,560 Speaker 7: day that they have beaten every Big ten team on 2022 01:29:37,680 --> 01:29:40,400 Speaker 7: the road, which is something that really stands out to me, 2023 01:29:40,439 --> 01:29:43,000 Speaker 7: because not like you get four cracks at everybody on 2024 01:29:43,120 --> 01:29:45,680 Speaker 7: the road Ucla, I think, is he only one they 2025 01:29:45,720 --> 01:29:47,880 Speaker 7: haven't and they only played them once and that was 2026 01:29:47,920 --> 01:29:48,160 Speaker 7: on a. 2027 01:29:48,560 --> 01:29:50,920 Speaker 5: What a pretty much a last second shot, you know, 2028 01:29:51,160 --> 01:29:52,320 Speaker 5: back earlier this year. 2029 01:29:52,400 --> 01:29:54,880 Speaker 7: So is there anything like statistically you point to to 2030 01:29:54,960 --> 01:29:57,720 Speaker 7: sum up their careers. I'm sure the wins are you know, 2031 01:29:58,040 --> 01:30:02,120 Speaker 7: speak obvious that stands out for how decorated of a 2032 01:30:02,200 --> 01:30:02,720 Speaker 7: senior class. 2033 01:30:02,840 --> 01:30:06,519 Speaker 9: This is, well, I love me some Chris Foreman. I 2034 01:30:06,600 --> 01:30:08,840 Speaker 9: did have to point out the one caveat to him. 2035 01:30:09,520 --> 01:30:12,280 Speaker 9: Technically the win over Penn State was at the Palaestra. 2036 01:30:12,840 --> 01:30:16,439 Speaker 9: It didn't actually happen in the Happy Valley, But that 2037 01:30:16,600 --> 01:30:19,880 Speaker 9: is still an awfully cool statistic that, yes, this Produce 2038 01:30:19,920 --> 01:30:23,479 Speaker 9: senior class won at least one game in every opposing 2039 01:30:23,600 --> 01:30:27,800 Speaker 9: building on the Big ten on the road except for UCLA. 2040 01:30:28,160 --> 01:30:30,760 Speaker 9: The thing and so here I am Kevin right, I'm 2041 01:30:30,800 --> 01:30:33,720 Speaker 9: trying to put all my notes and information together for 2042 01:30:33,840 --> 01:30:37,519 Speaker 9: tomorrow's broadcast because on the radio side, we also carry 2043 01:30:37,560 --> 01:30:39,439 Speaker 9: the Senior Day festivities, so I have a lot of 2044 01:30:39,479 --> 01:30:41,840 Speaker 9: full time in a postgame, so I'm trying to come 2045 01:30:41,920 --> 01:30:44,000 Speaker 9: up with some things to talk about. But so as 2046 01:30:44,000 --> 01:30:46,240 Speaker 9: I'm looking at stuff this morning, I think the one 2047 01:30:46,320 --> 01:30:47,680 Speaker 9: thing for the three of them, if you're going to 2048 01:30:47,720 --> 01:30:50,960 Speaker 9: look at him collectively, outside of the winning, is the scoring. 2049 01:30:52,400 --> 01:30:55,360 Speaker 9: You know, Brayden Smith has worked his way into the 2050 01:30:55,400 --> 01:30:58,960 Speaker 9: top ten all time scoring, Fletcher is eighteen points away 2051 01:30:59,000 --> 01:31:01,920 Speaker 9: from being top fifteen all time scores and Purdue history, 2052 01:31:02,280 --> 01:31:04,880 Speaker 9: and then Trey is closing in on top twenty. So 2053 01:31:04,920 --> 01:31:07,599 Speaker 9: you're gonna have three top twenty scorers in the history 2054 01:31:07,600 --> 01:31:10,720 Speaker 9: of the school, all on the same team, which to me, 2055 01:31:11,600 --> 01:31:13,080 Speaker 9: and that's one of those things, one of those stats 2056 01:31:13,120 --> 01:31:15,080 Speaker 9: had just kind of crept up with me. I wasn't 2057 01:31:15,120 --> 01:31:17,479 Speaker 9: aware of that until I started putting some pencil to paper, 2058 01:31:17,520 --> 01:31:20,400 Speaker 9: But yeah, that's the thing for me. Offensively, how good 2059 01:31:20,439 --> 01:31:23,679 Speaker 9: this group has been, and maybe just offense in general. 2060 01:31:23,840 --> 01:31:26,160 Speaker 9: You know, Purdue is number two in the country this 2061 01:31:26,800 --> 01:31:30,600 Speaker 9: year and adjusted offensive efficiency. I can't even remember the 2062 01:31:30,720 --> 01:31:33,080 Speaker 9: last time Purdue was outside of the top five and 2063 01:31:33,160 --> 01:31:36,639 Speaker 9: adjusted offensive efficiency. Normally it's one or two every single 2064 01:31:36,760 --> 01:31:39,240 Speaker 9: year with these with these guys over the last four years. 2065 01:31:39,840 --> 01:31:43,639 Speaker 9: So yeah, offense scoring that that those are the things 2066 01:31:43,680 --> 01:31:46,040 Speaker 9: I remember certainly about these three when it's all said 2067 01:31:46,040 --> 01:31:48,280 Speaker 9: and done now, Matt Painter would be the first to 2068 01:31:48,320 --> 01:31:50,080 Speaker 9: tell you the reason this screw's falling on some hard 2069 01:31:50,120 --> 01:31:52,160 Speaker 9: times here as a lait is because they haven't been 2070 01:31:52,200 --> 01:31:56,479 Speaker 9: good enough defensively, but offensively certainly hasn't been a problem. 2071 01:31:56,800 --> 01:31:58,519 Speaker 9: And that's that's been a lot of fun to watch 2072 01:31:58,600 --> 01:32:00,439 Speaker 9: these guys and what they're able to do on the 2073 01:32:00,479 --> 01:32:01,160 Speaker 9: offensive end. 2074 01:32:01,800 --> 01:32:05,639 Speaker 6: Rob We know this is the era of player movement, 2075 01:32:05,720 --> 01:32:08,000 Speaker 6: and it's very rare for a player to start at 2076 01:32:08,040 --> 01:32:10,360 Speaker 6: one school and finished their career at that same school, 2077 01:32:10,439 --> 01:32:14,920 Speaker 6: especially across multiple seasons. Why do you think Matt Painter 2078 01:32:15,120 --> 01:32:18,679 Speaker 6: can still sell that to a lot of kids coming 2079 01:32:18,760 --> 01:32:23,080 Speaker 6: up now, even though he's probably recruiting about quote unquote loyalty. 2080 01:32:24,720 --> 01:32:29,240 Speaker 9: Well, yeah, James, good question. I would say it's really 2081 01:32:29,280 --> 01:32:32,920 Speaker 9: a two way street, obviously not you know, not only 2082 01:32:32,960 --> 01:32:37,960 Speaker 9: are the players extremely loyal to coach Painter, but you know, 2083 01:32:38,320 --> 01:32:40,360 Speaker 9: Coach Painter also kind of knows what he's getting into 2084 01:32:40,479 --> 01:32:43,400 Speaker 9: before he even recruits them. You know, he's one of 2085 01:32:43,439 --> 01:32:46,320 Speaker 9: these guys that really goes on the deep dive from 2086 01:32:46,360 --> 01:32:49,160 Speaker 9: a personality standpoint, I think I told you guys this before. 2087 01:32:49,240 --> 01:32:54,000 Speaker 9: This is not insider trading here, but there's a personality 2088 01:32:54,160 --> 01:32:57,240 Speaker 9: test that a number of the recruits and players are 2089 01:32:57,320 --> 01:33:00,080 Speaker 9: asked to take before really even Matt Painter does a 2090 01:33:00,160 --> 01:33:03,560 Speaker 9: deep dive on them just to see if, indeed you know, 2091 01:33:03,680 --> 01:33:06,320 Speaker 9: there'll be a good fit at Purdue. So coach Painter 2092 01:33:06,479 --> 01:33:08,880 Speaker 9: knows pre you know, Look, it's never going to be 2093 01:33:08,920 --> 01:33:11,720 Speaker 9: one hundred percent. Obviously Perdue has had guys transfer out, 2094 01:33:12,479 --> 01:33:14,559 Speaker 9: but for the most part, you normally have a pretty 2095 01:33:14,600 --> 01:33:16,600 Speaker 9: good idea going into it before you even offer a 2096 01:33:16,680 --> 01:33:18,920 Speaker 9: guy a scholarship whether or not he's going to be 2097 01:33:18,960 --> 01:33:21,120 Speaker 9: a good fit for you, and if he's a guy 2098 01:33:21,200 --> 01:33:23,719 Speaker 9: that you know is going to be loyal to the program, 2099 01:33:23,960 --> 01:33:25,880 Speaker 9: is going to you know, stick around through thick and thin. 2100 01:33:27,000 --> 01:33:29,000 Speaker 9: So it's not like these these things come as a 2101 01:33:29,040 --> 01:33:32,599 Speaker 9: surprise on the front end. Certainly, my beg of pardon 2102 01:33:32,640 --> 01:33:34,439 Speaker 9: all the works, A ton of work is done on 2103 01:33:34,520 --> 01:33:37,920 Speaker 9: the front end, so that certainly helps. But yeah, I mean, look, 2104 01:33:37,960 --> 01:33:41,960 Speaker 9: I've been asked this question before. I certainly did not 2105 01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:45,840 Speaker 9: play college basketball at high major level nor the small 2106 01:33:45,880 --> 01:33:49,679 Speaker 9: college level, but I'd have a tough time believing once 2107 01:33:49,760 --> 01:33:52,439 Speaker 9: you were offered a scholarship for Purdue and played for Purdue, 2108 01:33:52,439 --> 01:33:54,400 Speaker 9: you would ever want to leave. I mean, my gosh, 2109 01:33:54,439 --> 01:33:56,080 Speaker 9: you play in front of a sold out crowd every 2110 01:33:56,120 --> 01:33:59,120 Speaker 9: single game. You know Saturday Tomorrow's game is going to 2111 01:33:59,120 --> 01:34:01,400 Speaker 9: be one hundred and sixth straight sell out. For the 2112 01:34:01,479 --> 01:34:04,160 Speaker 9: most part, you win all the time. You know, it's 2113 01:34:04,280 --> 01:34:06,799 Speaker 9: rare that you're not ranked inside of the top fifteen. 2114 01:34:07,880 --> 01:34:09,960 Speaker 9: You play some of the best competition in the country. 2115 01:34:10,400 --> 01:34:13,080 Speaker 9: Yet again this year, Produce strength to schedule is top ten, 2116 01:34:13,520 --> 01:34:16,840 Speaker 9: as it is basically every year. So why wouldn't you 2117 01:34:16,920 --> 01:34:19,800 Speaker 9: want to once you're there? I don't know why you 2118 01:34:19,840 --> 01:34:23,680 Speaker 9: would want to leave, because you know the old old 2119 01:34:23,760 --> 01:34:26,639 Speaker 9: saying that the grass isn't always greener. On the other side, 2120 01:34:27,560 --> 01:34:29,640 Speaker 9: I would say there's only a handful of programs in 2121 01:34:29,680 --> 01:34:31,880 Speaker 9: the country where you really would feel like the grass 2122 01:34:32,000 --> 01:34:35,120 Speaker 9: is greener than that Purdue. And you're playing for a 2123 01:34:35,240 --> 01:34:37,920 Speaker 9: veteran coach, right who. I think that's part of it too. 2124 01:34:37,960 --> 01:34:39,559 Speaker 9: You're not playing for a guy that you're like, boy, 2125 01:34:39,560 --> 01:34:41,320 Speaker 9: I wonder this guy might get fired in the next 2126 01:34:41,439 --> 01:34:43,240 Speaker 9: year or two. No, No, that's not going to happen 2127 01:34:43,320 --> 01:34:45,680 Speaker 9: with Matt Painter. He's been around twenty one years for 2128 01:34:45,760 --> 01:34:49,600 Speaker 9: a reason, So the stability in the coaching certainly doesn't hurt. So, 2129 01:34:49,680 --> 01:34:52,120 Speaker 9: I know that's a long winded answer, James, but I 2130 01:34:52,280 --> 01:34:53,600 Speaker 9: just think there are a lot of factors that go 2131 01:34:53,680 --> 01:34:57,160 Speaker 9: into it. The biggest factor being coach Painter knows upfront 2132 01:34:57,400 --> 01:34:59,200 Speaker 9: long before he jumps in with both feet on the 2133 01:34:59,240 --> 01:35:01,680 Speaker 9: recruiting part of it, whether or not you're going to 2134 01:35:01,680 --> 01:35:02,719 Speaker 9: be a good fit for Purdue. 2135 01:35:03,479 --> 01:35:06,599 Speaker 6: Yeah, I would say in regard to the grass being greener, 2136 01:35:06,720 --> 01:35:08,400 Speaker 6: you got a lot of people these days saying, hey, 2137 01:35:08,439 --> 01:35:10,800 Speaker 6: that money's pretty green too, you want to come on 2138 01:35:10,920 --> 01:35:11,400 Speaker 6: over here? 2139 01:35:12,439 --> 01:35:15,920 Speaker 9: Absolutely, Oh I get that part of it too. Luckily, 2140 01:35:16,040 --> 01:35:18,840 Speaker 9: Purdue has been in a position financially where they can 2141 01:35:19,080 --> 01:35:21,120 Speaker 9: you know they're in the game, right. They'll be the 2142 01:35:21,160 --> 01:35:23,600 Speaker 9: first to tell you they're not the highest bidder, but 2143 01:35:23,680 --> 01:35:26,320 Speaker 9: they're certainly in the game, and that that doesn't hurt. Yeah, 2144 01:35:26,360 --> 01:35:27,960 Speaker 9: you're absolutely right, Rob. 2145 01:35:28,160 --> 01:35:29,479 Speaker 5: I do want to go back to the other night, 2146 01:35:29,880 --> 01:35:32,559 Speaker 5: and I have long been a huge fan of CJ. 2147 01:35:32,720 --> 01:35:37,280 Speaker 7: Cows in just everything that he does that maybe isn't 2148 01:35:37,439 --> 01:35:40,759 Speaker 7: whatever going to appear on a highlight reel necessarily, Certainly 2149 01:35:40,800 --> 01:35:44,000 Speaker 7: he had a lot of those moments on Wednesday night there. 2150 01:35:44,720 --> 01:35:45,599 Speaker 5: What's his temperament? 2151 01:35:45,840 --> 01:35:48,519 Speaker 7: Like I've made a comparison to Andrew Nemhard with the Pacers, 2152 01:35:48,640 --> 01:35:50,519 Speaker 7: you know, again, maybe not the frontline guy, but just 2153 01:35:50,640 --> 01:35:51,880 Speaker 7: does so much for them. 2154 01:35:52,479 --> 01:35:53,040 Speaker 3: How is CJ. 2155 01:35:53,160 --> 01:35:55,360 Speaker 5: Cox kind of wired from a personality standpoint? 2156 01:35:56,720 --> 01:35:59,760 Speaker 9: Well, I'll answer it with this like this, I don't know. 2157 01:35:59,800 --> 01:36:00,880 Speaker 9: I never heard him speak. 2158 01:36:03,880 --> 01:36:07,280 Speaker 5: That's just sounds like Andrew Near does not James Boyd. 2159 01:36:07,520 --> 01:36:08,120 Speaker 1: That is true. 2160 01:36:09,640 --> 01:36:11,960 Speaker 9: I'm being a bit facetious. I have heard him speak, 2161 01:36:12,000 --> 01:36:12,880 Speaker 9: but not very often. 2162 01:36:13,000 --> 01:36:13,280 Speaker 2: He is. 2163 01:36:13,479 --> 01:36:15,800 Speaker 9: Uh yeah, I don't know much about Nemhart, but it 2164 01:36:15,840 --> 01:36:18,479 Speaker 9: sounds to me like that's a pretty good comparison. Uh 2165 01:36:18,720 --> 01:36:22,240 Speaker 9: he is. He's a quiet guy, Uh he is. He's 2166 01:36:22,280 --> 01:36:25,280 Speaker 9: certainly a lead by example, not a lead by you know, 2167 01:36:25,640 --> 01:36:28,280 Speaker 9: a vocal type of a guy. But man, is he 2168 01:36:28,320 --> 01:36:31,840 Speaker 9: a talented player. And the beauty of him really coming 2169 01:36:31,880 --> 01:36:34,679 Speaker 9: on here has of late offensively is and you guys 2170 01:36:34,760 --> 01:36:38,439 Speaker 9: know this, he's produced best perimeter defender. So now you 2171 01:36:38,640 --> 01:36:41,479 Speaker 9: really have a two way guy on your robster that 2172 01:36:41,600 --> 01:36:44,120 Speaker 9: not only can you count on defensively, but you know, 2173 01:36:44,320 --> 01:36:47,599 Speaker 9: let's let's let's hope that this trend offensively continues for him, 2174 01:36:47,640 --> 01:36:50,640 Speaker 9: and he can continue to be the offensive player he 2175 01:36:51,040 --> 01:36:54,400 Speaker 9: is quickly becoming. So yeah, it's again, I don't know 2176 01:36:54,520 --> 01:36:56,240 Speaker 9: much about nem Hard, but I think you guys are 2177 01:36:56,280 --> 01:36:59,240 Speaker 9: probably just listening to you probably spot on with a comparison. 2178 01:36:59,760 --> 01:36:59,880 Speaker 2: Uh. 2179 01:37:00,160 --> 01:37:03,040 Speaker 9: He he is a guy that will do He's more 2180 01:37:03,040 --> 01:37:05,400 Speaker 9: of an action guy, not a guy that's going to 2181 01:37:05,439 --> 01:37:08,200 Speaker 9: talk a whole lot. And maybe for this group that's 2182 01:37:08,240 --> 01:37:09,520 Speaker 9: not all bad, actually. 2183 01:37:10,439 --> 01:37:14,080 Speaker 1: Not bad at all. Rob this you talk about another 2184 01:37:14,120 --> 01:37:17,759 Speaker 1: great schedule for Purdue. They've had some real special moments 2185 01:37:17,840 --> 01:37:20,840 Speaker 1: this year. They've had some struggles as well, and Matt 2186 01:37:21,000 --> 01:37:25,920 Speaker 1: has talked about that, what's the likelihood they can pull 2187 01:37:25,960 --> 01:37:27,720 Speaker 1: it all together and make a big run here? 2188 01:37:29,280 --> 01:37:31,759 Speaker 9: Well, I would think so if I'm a Purdue fan, Jeff, 2189 01:37:32,160 --> 01:37:34,920 Speaker 9: I look no further than last year, when if you remember, 2190 01:37:35,040 --> 01:37:37,880 Speaker 9: Purdue really limped to the finish line. I mean, look, 2191 01:37:37,960 --> 01:37:40,799 Speaker 9: Purdue is not great. Last year, Forde had eleven eleven 2192 01:37:41,000 --> 01:37:45,799 Speaker 9: losses ten in the regular season. For Due was thirteen 2193 01:37:45,840 --> 01:37:47,920 Speaker 9: and seven in the Big Ten last year. If they 2194 01:37:47,920 --> 01:37:50,840 Speaker 9: did not have a great, great record as far as 2195 01:37:50,960 --> 01:37:54,320 Speaker 9: what Purdue fans have become accustomed to. Yet you know 2196 01:37:54,520 --> 01:37:56,760 Speaker 9: when it's time to turn it on. In the postseason. 2197 01:37:57,240 --> 01:37:59,080 Speaker 9: They made it look awful easy in those first two 2198 01:37:59,200 --> 01:38:01,639 Speaker 9: NCAA Tournament games, and then as you guys know, took 2199 01:38:01,680 --> 01:38:04,639 Speaker 9: Houston right to the wire. Uh and Purdue fans would 2200 01:38:04,680 --> 01:38:06,640 Speaker 9: argue if they'd, you know, we'd gotten a little bit 2201 01:38:06,720 --> 01:38:08,360 Speaker 9: better whistle there at the end of that game due 2202 01:38:08,400 --> 01:38:10,479 Speaker 9: probably advances to the Elite eight and has a chance 2203 01:38:10,520 --> 01:38:13,479 Speaker 9: to play Tennessee. So I would look no further than 2204 01:38:13,600 --> 01:38:16,559 Speaker 9: just last year, this ability for this group to turn 2205 01:38:16,600 --> 01:38:20,160 Speaker 9: it on and when it was time. And I would 2206 01:38:20,160 --> 01:38:22,400 Speaker 9: also say this, and I don't think this is a 2207 01:38:23,000 --> 01:38:25,280 Speaker 9: I don't think this is a Purdue only comment, Jeff. 2208 01:38:25,320 --> 01:38:27,479 Speaker 9: I think everyone in the Big Ten would tell you this. 2209 01:38:29,920 --> 01:38:34,640 Speaker 9: You're so you're so relieved, you exhale when you have 2210 01:38:34,720 --> 01:38:36,760 Speaker 9: a chance to get in the NCAA Tournament and play 2211 01:38:36,840 --> 01:38:40,880 Speaker 9: someone that's not a Big Ten opponent, right, your Big 2212 01:38:41,000 --> 01:38:44,400 Speaker 9: Ten teams. You just look at Northwestern and Purdue. Northwestern 2213 01:38:44,479 --> 01:38:47,880 Speaker 9: has always given Purdue fits, and they're not They're not 2214 01:38:48,040 --> 01:38:49,599 Speaker 9: very good. They're not. I mean, they went they won 2215 01:38:49,680 --> 01:38:52,720 Speaker 9: five conference games, yet quite frankly, they had Purdue dead 2216 01:38:52,760 --> 01:38:55,800 Speaker 9: to rights the other night. That's just the Big Ten. 2217 01:38:55,920 --> 01:38:58,800 Speaker 9: You're just so thrilled to finally play someone else not 2218 01:38:58,960 --> 01:39:02,519 Speaker 9: in your league. That doesn't that it's not going to 2219 01:39:02,560 --> 01:39:05,639 Speaker 9: scout you as as intimately as the Big ten teams 2220 01:39:05,680 --> 01:39:07,000 Speaker 9: are going to, and that's not going to have the 2221 01:39:07,560 --> 01:39:10,200 Speaker 9: knowledge of your personnel the way the big teams Big 2222 01:39:10,280 --> 01:39:12,920 Speaker 9: ten teams do. I just I don't want to say 2223 01:39:12,960 --> 01:39:14,799 Speaker 9: it makes it easier, but it sure. 2224 01:39:14,720 --> 01:39:16,000 Speaker 2: Feels like it makes it easier. 2225 01:39:16,120 --> 01:39:20,560 Speaker 9: So again, I would unless and I know this is impossible, 2226 01:39:20,600 --> 01:39:23,200 Speaker 9: but unless Purdue fans would see a Big Ten team 2227 01:39:23,280 --> 01:39:24,880 Speaker 9: on the in the first or second round of the 2228 01:39:25,000 --> 01:39:28,280 Speaker 9: NCAA tournament, which again, which is impossible, I think I 2229 01:39:28,360 --> 01:39:30,080 Speaker 9: feel pretty good about produced chances. 2230 01:39:31,479 --> 01:39:34,240 Speaker 1: Well, I think we are waiting to see how that's 2231 01:39:34,280 --> 01:39:35,600 Speaker 1: going to happen, and I think there's a lot of 2232 01:39:35,680 --> 01:39:37,360 Speaker 1: us that are hopeful it will work out that way. 2233 01:39:37,800 --> 01:39:40,120 Speaker 1: Enjoy Senior Day tomorrow. It's always fun to watch from 2234 01:39:40,240 --> 01:39:42,479 Speaker 1: from on the court because there's just so many special memories. 2235 01:39:42,720 --> 01:39:45,080 Speaker 1: So enjoy that experience and we'll talk to you soon. 2236 01:39:46,000 --> 01:39:47,880 Speaker 9: Awesome, Thank you, guys, have a great weekend. 2237 01:39:48,040 --> 01:39:51,240 Speaker 1: You bet, thanks. Rob. Rob Blackman's just he's one of 2238 01:39:51,280 --> 01:39:54,200 Speaker 1: those guys, just a pleasure to talk to every time 2239 01:39:54,320 --> 01:39:54,519 Speaker 1: we do. 2240 01:39:54,880 --> 01:39:57,720 Speaker 5: Agreed, Agreed, And yeah, that's c. J. Cox thing. 2241 01:39:57,840 --> 01:40:02,360 Speaker 7: Pretty funny on that end. And boy it was wild 2242 01:40:02,439 --> 01:40:05,640 Speaker 7: when he mentioned the rise and the scoring ranks. You 2243 01:40:05,720 --> 01:40:08,759 Speaker 7: imagine one class produces three of your top twenty scores 2244 01:40:08,800 --> 01:40:09,759 Speaker 7: in the history of the program. 2245 01:40:11,600 --> 01:40:14,120 Speaker 3: Definitely enough. 2246 01:40:14,479 --> 01:40:16,439 Speaker 7: Yeah, I agree not to mention Braden's the leader and 2247 01:40:16,479 --> 01:40:20,360 Speaker 7: assist in the program. Fletcher's probably up there in three point. 2248 01:40:20,600 --> 01:40:22,439 Speaker 7: You know, I would assume Trey Coffman ran from a 2249 01:40:22,479 --> 01:40:26,519 Speaker 7: rebound standpoint, maybe a per average. And again, they've just 2250 01:40:26,640 --> 01:40:30,080 Speaker 7: started so many games and since day one they started there. 2251 01:40:30,120 --> 01:40:32,519 Speaker 7: And then you know, obviously Tray Coffman ren did the 2252 01:40:32,560 --> 01:40:35,200 Speaker 7: red shirt and was playing behind quite a good big guy, 2253 01:40:35,240 --> 01:40:37,240 Speaker 7: and then he's been a three year starter since. 2254 01:40:38,400 --> 01:40:40,439 Speaker 1: Uh, it's gonna be fun to watch though the big 2255 01:40:40,920 --> 01:40:42,920 Speaker 1: I thought it was interesting that Rob said you talk 2256 01:40:42,960 --> 01:40:44,960 Speaker 1: to players and coaches and it's almost a sigh of 2257 01:40:45,040 --> 01:40:47,400 Speaker 1: relief when you get to the NCAA tournament. Huh, we're 2258 01:40:47,439 --> 01:40:50,559 Speaker 1: not playing Michigan, We're not playing we're not playing Illinois, 2259 01:40:50,680 --> 01:40:53,280 Speaker 1: We're not playing playing you know, whoever's hot right now. 2260 01:40:53,320 --> 01:40:56,479 Speaker 1: Because it's brutal in the big Den, right, now, Oh yeah. 2261 01:40:56,360 --> 01:40:57,960 Speaker 3: I'm sure it is. I'm sure it is. 2262 01:40:58,040 --> 01:41:01,200 Speaker 6: But that's why I'm so excited about the Bigson Tournament 2263 01:41:01,280 --> 01:41:02,920 Speaker 6: and what's to come in the dance. 2264 01:41:03,160 --> 01:41:05,360 Speaker 1: All Right, We've got that coming up this weekend. A 2265 01:41:05,400 --> 01:41:09,479 Speaker 1: lot of sectional stuff already, phone calls and texts being 2266 01:41:09,560 --> 01:41:11,840 Speaker 1: shared between people in the group about when you're gonna 2267 01:41:11,840 --> 01:41:14,080 Speaker 1: get to the mill, where do you want to meet? 2268 01:41:14,200 --> 01:41:16,360 Speaker 1: All that kind of stuff. People are fired up for 2269 01:41:16,479 --> 01:41:17,559 Speaker 1: these sectionals tonight. 2270 01:41:18,120 --> 01:41:19,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, legacies will be decided. 2271 01:41:19,960 --> 01:41:21,800 Speaker 6: I love high school basketball and I talk to Kyle 2272 01:41:21,880 --> 01:41:24,880 Speaker 6: Nenerrip about this yesterday when I was chatting with him, 2273 01:41:25,360 --> 01:41:29,160 Speaker 6: because it's everything and nothing all at once. Because when 2274 01:41:29,200 --> 01:41:31,920 Speaker 6: you're a high schooler, the last game you play, it 2275 01:41:31,960 --> 01:41:34,960 Speaker 6: feels that the world's ending, But in reality, you probably 2276 01:41:35,000 --> 01:41:37,240 Speaker 6: have a long life ahead of you and many things 2277 01:41:37,320 --> 01:41:38,120 Speaker 6: you can move on to. 2278 01:41:38,680 --> 01:41:39,920 Speaker 3: But in the moment, I just. 2279 01:41:40,000 --> 01:41:43,439 Speaker 6: Love that it's such a big thing in your world, 2280 01:41:44,280 --> 01:41:48,479 Speaker 6: and I enjoy that atmosphere, that intensity. And also again 2281 01:41:48,720 --> 01:41:50,479 Speaker 6: I think basketball is better. When I hear a parent 2282 01:41:50,560 --> 01:41:53,600 Speaker 6: yelling at a referee, it sounds like it's gonna be 2283 01:41:53,640 --> 01:41:55,000 Speaker 6: so crowd in the middle of the night. James, you 2284 01:41:55,080 --> 01:41:56,320 Speaker 6: might have to sit on Jeff's lap. 2285 01:41:57,120 --> 01:41:59,240 Speaker 3: Am I allowed to do that? Well, Grant or Jake 2286 01:41:59,280 --> 01:41:59,759 Speaker 3: be jealous. 2287 01:42:00,479 --> 01:42:02,439 Speaker 1: I don't think Granted Jaking to go. My buddies might 2288 01:42:02,479 --> 01:42:03,519 Speaker 1: look at me a little funny though. 2289 01:42:04,120 --> 01:42:05,880 Speaker 6: Well, you tell your buddies you see me more than 2290 01:42:05,920 --> 01:42:08,880 Speaker 6: a me anyway, that's true. Come on, now, you know 2291 01:42:08,960 --> 01:42:10,240 Speaker 6: I'm a progressive show here. 2292 01:42:10,360 --> 01:42:13,240 Speaker 1: That's right, James.

But I have to say 2365 01:46:18,160 --> 01:46:21,080 Speaker 6: t J made some good points there, made some good. 2366 01:46:20,960 --> 01:46:24,120 Speaker 1: Points that might turned into like a congressional hearing type 2367 01:46:24,160 --> 01:46:26,960 Speaker 1: atmosphere right where people are just pounding on the desk 2368 01:46:27,040 --> 01:46:28,280 Speaker 1: and making accusations. 2369 01:46:28,360 --> 01:46:30,639 Speaker 4: Who would catch more smoke Ballard? Or if Kevin Bowen 2370 01:46:30,640 --> 01:46:32,599 Speaker 4: slid in there and Ballard would see him, Oh, ken 2371 01:46:32,680 --> 01:46:34,519 Speaker 4: bones in here.

Thank you for the call. 2374 01:46:39,800 --> 01:46:41,040 Speaker 5: I think there are a lot of Colts fans that 2375 01:46:41,360 --> 01:46:44,400 Speaker 5: listened to that call and said, preach, preach. I'm with you. 2376 01:46:44,600 --> 01:46:47,360 Speaker 5: I have heard yes, Jeff and James. 2377 01:46:47,680 --> 01:46:49,920 Speaker 7: I've heard that a lot over the last week or so, like, yeah, 2378 01:46:50,080 --> 01:46:51,920 Speaker 7: you know, we would love some sort of whatever, town 2379 01:46:51,960 --> 01:46:54,720 Speaker 7: Hall this and that. You know, I think I think 2380 01:46:54,800 --> 01:46:58,600 Speaker 7: Ballard at times gets a little preachy in some of 2381 01:46:58,680 --> 01:47:02,360 Speaker 7: these media and I understand, I'm sure there is a 2382 01:47:02,439 --> 01:47:05,040 Speaker 7: lot on social media, but that I think is a 2383 01:47:05,160 --> 01:47:08,719 Speaker 7: part of what comes with the territory, not endorsing people, 2384 01:47:09,000 --> 01:47:11,160 Speaker 7: you know, crossing the line in that nature. 2385 01:47:11,760 --> 01:47:15,799 Speaker 5: But when you take these jobs, that is what happens 2386 01:47:16,080 --> 01:47:18,320 Speaker 5: with it. That's just the reality of it. 2387 01:47:19,360 --> 01:47:22,840 Speaker 7: So I'm probably a little bit more of a Yeah, 2388 01:47:23,360 --> 01:47:24,760 Speaker 7: when you side on the dotted line and you make 2389 01:47:24,800 --> 01:47:27,400 Speaker 7: millions of dollars and you're in a very public position 2390 01:47:27,560 --> 01:47:29,439 Speaker 7: like that, you're gonna have some people that'll say some 2391 01:47:29,520 --> 01:47:30,439 Speaker 7: things that frustrate you. 2392 01:47:30,680 --> 01:47:32,599 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'll see it from both sides. Like if I'm 2393 01:47:32,640 --> 01:47:35,360 Speaker 6: in Balo Shooes, I'm swinging because I'm petty. And also 2394 01:47:35,880 --> 01:47:38,200 Speaker 6: if I'm a fan, a disappointed fan that is over 2395 01:47:38,200 --> 01:47:40,559 Speaker 6: the last several years with the cults, I'm swinging as well. 2396 01:47:41,120 --> 01:47:44,120 Speaker 5: And again there has been you know, earlier I think 2397 01:47:44,160 --> 01:47:46,559 Speaker 5: Ballad was a little bit more like you know, quarterly 2398 01:47:46,720 --> 01:47:48,840 Speaker 5: radio show. You know, there's a little bit more of that, 2399 01:47:50,720 --> 01:47:52,320 Speaker 5: and so I think that, you know, is an element 2400 01:47:52,360 --> 01:47:54,320 Speaker 5: that maybe frustrate some fans a little bit. I still 2401 01:47:54,360 --> 01:47:56,360 Speaker 5: think for the most part, you look at him compared 2402 01:47:56,360 --> 01:47:58,840 Speaker 5: to other gms around the league, he probably speaks more 2403 01:47:59,439 --> 01:47:59,840 Speaker 5: than most. 2404 01:48:00,120 --> 01:48:00,960 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, for sure. 2405 01:48:01,560 --> 01:48:04,599 Speaker 7: But again from a fan standpoint, whether it's radio show, 2406 01:48:04,800 --> 01:48:07,680 Speaker 7: whether it's you know, they did do some townholls, it's 2407 01:48:07,720 --> 01:48:09,240 Speaker 7: kind of funny. I came across one the other day 2408 01:48:09,280 --> 01:48:13,040 Speaker 7: of like Jeff's Saturday interviewing Frank Reich at some town 2409 01:48:13,120 --> 01:48:15,240 Speaker 7: hall or some like fan of them, like, oh boy, 2410 01:48:15,760 --> 01:48:17,680 Speaker 7: hopefully that turned a couple of years ago. 2411 01:48:18,439 --> 01:48:20,280 Speaker 1: Well, let's check it down. Mark Dacton. 2412 01:48:21,640 --> 01:48:24,680 Speaker 11: The Boy and Chetown Brought to you by the Barbosol 2413 01:48:24,800 --> 01:48:30,320 Speaker 11: Horizon League Basketball Championships Marsh Stars here the Barbarisol Horizon 2414 01:48:30,400 --> 01:48:36,040 Speaker 11: League Basketball Championships, Marsh eight through chams, tickets and more 2415 01:48:36,080 --> 01:48:37,439 Speaker 11: at Horizonleague dot com. 2416 01:48:37,520 --> 01:48:41,000 Speaker 1: Slash indian All right, Indianapolis Colts start a very crucial 2417 01:48:41,080 --> 01:48:43,519 Speaker 1: period of the offseason. In fact, they already have by 2418 01:48:43,600 --> 01:48:47,599 Speaker 1: transitioning uh Daniel Jones. And now it looks like Alec 2419 01:48:47,640 --> 01:48:50,719 Speaker 1: Pierce is set to hit the open market. Latest news yesterday, James, 2420 01:48:51,160 --> 01:48:54,439 Speaker 1: they're exploring trades for Zaire Franklin. Is there a market 2421 01:48:54,479 --> 01:48:54,880 Speaker 1: out there? 2422 01:48:55,479 --> 01:48:57,880 Speaker 6: I don't believe there will be a very big market, 2423 01:48:58,000 --> 01:49:01,160 Speaker 6: if there is a market at all. This basically is 2424 01:49:01,240 --> 01:49:03,360 Speaker 6: the Colts trying to get something in return for him. 2425 01:49:03,720 --> 01:49:06,439 Speaker 6: But if they cut him outright, they could save the 2426 01:49:06,479 --> 01:49:09,360 Speaker 6: same amount of money towards their cap space. So that's 2427 01:49:09,360 --> 01:49:13,160 Speaker 6: a big step towards trying to retain Alec Pearson's first 2428 01:49:13,160 --> 01:49:14,799 Speaker 6: and foremost thing of jont Kevin. 2429 01:49:14,600 --> 01:49:17,120 Speaker 1: What about a trade market for backup quarterback. 2430 01:49:16,800 --> 01:49:19,639 Speaker 7: Anthony Richardson at this point, Yeah, I thought James laid 2431 01:49:19,640 --> 01:49:21,280 Speaker 7: it out very well. You know, there probably is more 2432 01:49:21,400 --> 01:49:24,200 Speaker 7: for Anthony Richardson, not that there's an abundance by any means, 2433 01:49:24,280 --> 01:49:26,360 Speaker 7: but you know, a little bit more there. So you know, 2434 01:49:26,600 --> 01:49:28,400 Speaker 7: if you want to play the draft pick game, you know, 2435 01:49:28,520 --> 01:49:30,240 Speaker 7: the Colts look like they're in line for a couple 2436 01:49:30,280 --> 01:49:32,320 Speaker 7: of compensatory picks. I mean, they could add some late 2437 01:49:32,560 --> 01:49:35,679 Speaker 7: day three picks here via trades and via that route. 2438 01:49:35,720 --> 01:49:38,680 Speaker 7: But again these are all if you trade Richardson and 2439 01:49:38,760 --> 01:49:40,560 Speaker 7: you trade Franklin. Let's say they do that in the 2440 01:49:40,640 --> 01:49:43,599 Speaker 7: next seventy two hours. That opens up about ten million, 2441 01:49:44,240 --> 01:49:46,880 Speaker 7: and right now you're about four or five over the cap, 2442 01:49:47,000 --> 01:49:49,240 Speaker 7: so that would get you cap compliant. Now they can 2443 01:49:49,280 --> 01:49:51,320 Speaker 7: do a lot of other things that can also get 2444 01:49:51,360 --> 01:49:52,719 Speaker 7: them in a better cap situation. 2445 01:49:53,520 --> 01:49:55,559 Speaker 5: So I think that's what this weekend will be about. 2446 01:49:56,000 --> 01:49:58,519 Speaker 7: How do they get to a place where now, all 2447 01:49:58,560 --> 01:50:01,360 Speaker 7: of a sudden, you can dude Daniel Jones a long 2448 01:50:01,439 --> 01:50:04,320 Speaker 7: term deal. You could give Alec Pierce a long term contract. 2449 01:50:04,600 --> 01:50:07,320 Speaker 7: Maybe you're making a swing for a pass rusher come 2450 01:50:07,360 --> 01:50:10,040 Speaker 7: Monday at noon. Those are the things I'm keeping an 2451 01:50:10,040 --> 01:50:11,200 Speaker 7: eye out for all right in. 2452 01:50:11,200 --> 01:50:13,880 Speaker 1: The NBA, Pacers continue their West coast road trip tonight. 2453 01:50:13,960 --> 01:50:16,320 Speaker 1: It'll be late ten o'clock airtime, Hero on the fan, 2454 01:50:16,400 --> 01:50:19,400 Speaker 1: ten thirty tip time. They've lost seven games in a row. 2455 01:50:19,479 --> 01:50:23,040 Speaker 1: They continue their road trips Sunday at Portland, Tuesday at Sacramento. 2456 01:50:23,680 --> 01:50:25,600 Speaker 1: I'm just wondering if we're gonna see Lebron James or 2457 01:50:25,680 --> 01:50:28,479 Speaker 1: Luka Donchez for the Lakers tonight. They played last night, 2458 01:50:28,560 --> 01:50:30,840 Speaker 1: both played significant minutes, and I think Lebron even came 2459 01:50:30,920 --> 01:50:31,920 Speaker 1: up with an injury, didn't he. 2460 01:50:32,479 --> 01:50:37,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, and he's also a part like that Superstar limitations 2461 01:50:37,840 --> 01:50:40,679 Speaker 6: thing with the player participation policy. He's like an older player, 2462 01:50:40,800 --> 01:50:43,400 Speaker 6: so he doesn't have to play back to backs. Luca 2463 01:50:43,520 --> 01:50:46,120 Speaker 6: should probably be out there so I would honestly if 2464 01:50:46,120 --> 01:50:48,400 Speaker 6: he did. If he wasn't out there, Rick Carlisle should 2465 01:50:48,400 --> 01:50:50,920 Speaker 6: just walk up to the commissioner and find him and say, well, 2466 01:50:50,920 --> 01:50:52,160 Speaker 6: you're gonna find them for tanking two? 2467 01:50:52,880 --> 01:50:55,479 Speaker 1: All right? At college basketball, the regular season comes to 2468 01:50:55,560 --> 01:50:57,799 Speaker 1: a close, certainly in the Big Ten this weekend. Indiana 2469 01:50:58,040 --> 01:51:02,240 Speaker 1: at Ohio State five thirty pm on Fox. Tomorrow Wisconsinate 2470 01:51:02,280 --> 01:51:05,000 Speaker 1: Purdue four pm CBS. We just talked to Rob Blackman 2471 01:51:05,040 --> 01:51:07,880 Speaker 1: about that senior day, Kevin, A very unique scene day. 2472 01:51:07,880 --> 01:51:09,120 Speaker 1: I don't think I'm gonna see a lot of these 2473 01:51:09,160 --> 01:51:12,000 Speaker 1: moving forward in college basketball. No, No, not at all. 2474 01:51:12,120 --> 01:51:14,759 Speaker 7: So Purdue wise, you know, again, can you solidify yourself? 2475 01:51:15,360 --> 01:51:17,000 Speaker 7: You know on the three leave the door open for 2476 01:51:17,080 --> 01:51:18,840 Speaker 7: a two seed. I think that's kind of what you're 2477 01:51:18,880 --> 01:51:22,639 Speaker 7: playing for. And obviously for Indiana you need something of note. 2478 01:51:22,760 --> 01:51:24,920 Speaker 7: Again on the resume, they are what are they two 2479 01:51:24,920 --> 01:51:27,040 Speaker 7: and eleven in Quad one games? This is a quad 2480 01:51:27,080 --> 01:51:30,040 Speaker 7: one game, Quad one road game as well, if you 2481 01:51:30,120 --> 01:51:32,360 Speaker 7: look at the Big Ten bracket right now, they could 2482 01:51:32,439 --> 01:51:35,280 Speaker 7: get u CLA in their second game that is obviously 2483 01:51:35,400 --> 01:51:36,559 Speaker 7: a neutral site. 2484 01:51:36,920 --> 01:51:40,120 Speaker 5: Indiana will have the overwhelming amount of fans inside of 2485 01:51:40,360 --> 01:51:42,559 Speaker 5: the United it's the United Center right for the Big 2486 01:51:42,600 --> 01:51:45,080 Speaker 5: Ten tournament here for the men, I believe it is YEP. 2487 01:51:45,720 --> 01:51:48,879 Speaker 5: So you know, that's the opportunities that sit there for Indiana, 2488 01:51:49,000 --> 01:51:50,760 Speaker 5: So I think it's important to get to get one 2489 01:51:50,880 --> 01:51:52,360 Speaker 5: might be enough. I think if you can get two 2490 01:51:52,400 --> 01:51:55,040 Speaker 5: of those, that will certainly get you in the dance. 2491 01:51:55,160 --> 01:51:58,759 Speaker 1: James Brackettology just released. It's updated every Tuesday and Friday 2492 01:51:58,800 --> 01:52:03,240 Speaker 1: morning by Joel Nardi at Obviously they're take the bracketologist 2493 01:52:03,280 --> 01:52:05,280 Speaker 1: of your choice. They're all over the place. But Joe 2494 01:52:05,320 --> 01:52:09,439 Speaker 1: Lonardi this morning has Ohio State as a last four 2495 01:52:09,720 --> 01:52:14,439 Speaker 1: by team and Indiana as they were a last four 2496 01:52:14,680 --> 01:52:18,240 Speaker 1: in and they still are, so this weekend could be 2497 01:52:18,280 --> 01:52:20,920 Speaker 1: pretty interesting. It seems to me a win over Ohio 2498 01:52:21,040 --> 01:52:26,639 Speaker 1: State does that move them up to a last by perhaps? 2499 01:52:27,080 --> 01:52:29,600 Speaker 3: Perhaps, But again I think they need to do a 2500 01:52:29,600 --> 01:52:30,560 Speaker 3: little bit more work than that. 2501 01:52:31,120 --> 01:52:33,599 Speaker 1: All right, Butler plays at De Paul at noon tomorrow. 2502 01:52:33,600 --> 01:52:35,400 Speaker 1: You can watch that one on Fox Sports one or 2503 01:52:35,479 --> 01:52:37,519 Speaker 1: listen to it live here on ninety three five, one 2504 01:52:37,560 --> 01:52:39,960 Speaker 1: oh seven five the Fan.

Semi finals in 2509 01:52:52,120 --> 01:52:55,599 Speaker 1: Sectionals Tonight in boys basketball, Pike and Plainfield will play 2510 01:52:55,720 --> 01:52:58,520 Speaker 1: at Plainfield. The other game in that one, Ben Davison, Brownsburg, 2511 01:52:58,600 --> 01:53:01,160 Speaker 1: pretty good, great one up the mill in Noblesville. The 2512 01:53:01,240 --> 01:53:04,920 Speaker 1: doubleheader there is a Fisher's Hamilton Southeastern and Carmel Noblesville. 2513 01:53:05,479 --> 01:53:08,160 Speaker 1: That'll be pretty fun, Ben Davis, as I mentioned in 2514 01:53:08,200 --> 01:53:11,160 Speaker 1: Brownsburg and Plainfield, Park Tutor and Cardinal Ritter will play 2515 01:53:11,240 --> 01:53:15,240 Speaker 1: at Ritter tonight. Sheridan Taylor play at Elwood. Shelby Villa 2516 01:53:15,280 --> 01:53:16,720 Speaker 1: and Greenwood could be a pretty good game too. Have 2517 01:53:16,760 --> 01:53:19,280 Speaker 1: you seen tho those teams this year at Greenwood? I 2518 01:53:19,360 --> 01:53:22,360 Speaker 1: have not, all right, So that's just five of I 2519 01:53:22,439 --> 01:53:24,000 Speaker 1: could probably name another five or six. 2520 01:53:25,280 --> 01:53:27,360 Speaker 3: Man, it'll be a great, great night of high school hoops. 2521 01:53:27,479 --> 01:53:30,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gonna be a lot of fun. Women's college basketball, 2522 01:53:31,040 --> 01:53:32,920 Speaker 1: it's the end of the line for Indiana. They lose 2523 01:53:33,000 --> 01:53:35,360 Speaker 1: yesterday to Ohio State eighty three fifty nine at the 2524 01:53:35,400 --> 01:53:38,080 Speaker 1: Women's Big Ten Tournament over at the field House, so 2525 01:53:38,360 --> 01:53:41,040 Speaker 1: their season comes to an end. The world Baseball Classic 2526 01:53:41,200 --> 01:53:45,679 Speaker 1: is underway Team USA tonight against Brazil. Kevin, you're fired 2527 01:53:45,760 --> 01:53:46,920 Speaker 1: up about that one, sure? 2528 01:53:47,160 --> 01:53:49,120 Speaker 7: Yeah, so sho hey Tany hitting the cover off of 2529 01:53:49,160 --> 01:53:51,559 Speaker 7: it out in the Tokyo Dome here in the wee 2530 01:53:51,640 --> 01:53:54,680 Speaker 7: hours of this Friday morning. So yeah, looking forward to 2531 01:53:54,720 --> 01:53:57,960 Speaker 7: obviously the bracket playing out and hopefully some marquee matchups 2532 01:53:58,000 --> 01:54:00,880 Speaker 7: here coming up next week. Jason sounds like he'll make 2533 01:54:00,880 --> 01:54:04,680 Speaker 7: as Achilles return here tonight, so that is obviously of 2534 01:54:04,840 --> 01:54:08,240 Speaker 7: note here from a Tyres Halliburton standpoint. I'm curious, you know, 2535 01:54:08,320 --> 01:54:10,080 Speaker 7: hopefully we can get Rick Carlisle on. I don't know, 2536 01:54:10,120 --> 01:54:11,960 Speaker 7: maybe next week, depending on their West trip, it might 2537 01:54:12,040 --> 01:54:14,560 Speaker 7: have to be another week. But like, I assume that 2538 01:54:14,680 --> 01:54:18,000 Speaker 7: the shingles thing is impacting some of Tyresee's rehab, right, 2539 01:54:18,640 --> 01:54:20,519 Speaker 7: I mean, isn't it taking you away from some sort 2540 01:54:20,520 --> 01:54:21,360 Speaker 7: of physical activity? 2541 01:54:21,479 --> 01:54:21,639 Speaker 2: Yeah? 2542 01:54:21,640 --> 01:54:25,599 Speaker 6: I believe that was reported by Tony East and Dustin 2543 01:54:25,640 --> 01:54:28,200 Speaker 6: de Pierre. I just kind of like a little side 2544 01:54:28,479 --> 01:54:30,600 Speaker 6: with the whole shingles thing is, yeah, you can't do 2545 01:54:30,720 --> 01:54:32,720 Speaker 6: really any on court stuff. I would imagine he was 2546 01:54:32,880 --> 01:54:35,040 Speaker 6: doing five on five, Yeah, I would imagine he has 2547 01:54:35,120 --> 01:54:37,360 Speaker 6: to isolate and get all that clear before he can 2548 01:54:37,400 --> 01:54:39,680 Speaker 6: come back. But I guess you're looking for silver lining. 2549 01:54:39,720 --> 01:54:41,920 Speaker 6: He's not like Jason Tatum trying to get back this season. 2550 01:54:42,040 --> 01:54:44,440 Speaker 5: He has, you know, cripling by any means in terms 2551 01:54:44,440 --> 01:54:44,920 Speaker 5: of his return. 2552 01:54:45,000 --> 01:54:45,640 Speaker 3: I gotta get right. 2553 01:54:45,880 --> 01:54:48,360 Speaker 1: Just something to note one of the college basketball game, 2554 01:54:48,720 --> 01:54:51,240 Speaker 1: two of them of note tonight, ball State will play 2555 01:54:51,320 --> 01:54:54,480 Speaker 1: at home against Central Michigan. That one starts at seven, 2556 01:54:54,600 --> 01:54:58,720 Speaker 1: and the Missouri Valley Conference quarterfinals at Saint Louis Valpo 2557 01:54:59,000 --> 01:55:01,280 Speaker 1: taking on Bradley. To Dave, I'll pull the number seven seed, 2558 01:55:01,320 --> 01:55:03,320 Speaker 1: Bradley the number two seed. Anything else you guys want 2559 01:55:03,360 --> 01:55:04,520 Speaker 1: to throw in for the weekend. 2560 01:55:04,280 --> 01:55:07,240 Speaker 5: Starts Yeah, mya Ohio tonight at nine, they try to 2561 01:55:07,320 --> 01:55:11,360 Speaker 5: cap an undefeated regular season. They are at Ohio a 2562 01:55:11,440 --> 01:55:14,440 Speaker 5: slight favorite in that one before the MAC Tournament starts 2563 01:55:15,040 --> 01:55:17,360 Speaker 5: in Cleveland. So we'll see if mya Ohio can become 2564 01:55:17,560 --> 01:55:19,760 Speaker 5: what is it, the fourth undefeated team in the last 2565 01:55:20,040 --> 01:55:23,880 Speaker 5: thirty years, wichital State, Gonzaga, Kentucky in. 2566 01:55:23,920 --> 01:55:24,600 Speaker 1: The regular season. 2567 01:55:24,680 --> 01:55:28,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that that is the list. Yeah, regular season, all. 2568 01:55:28,200 --> 01:55:30,720 Speaker 1: Right, coming up at a moment. We'll talk more about 2569 01:55:30,760 --> 01:55:33,720 Speaker 1: the Colts in their week ahead. Uh, here's something interesting. 2570 01:55:33,840 --> 01:55:36,520 Speaker 1: I thought Stephen Holder probably be responsible for this on 2571 01:55:36,760 --> 01:55:39,680 Speaker 1: ESPN dot com, talk about the Colts' biggest need, the 2572 01:55:39,720 --> 01:55:41,840 Speaker 1: free agent most likely on the move, all that kind 2573 01:55:41,840 --> 01:55:43,720 Speaker 1: of stuff. It's next at ninety three five and one 2574 01:55:43,760 --> 01:55:44,959 Speaker 1: oh seven five the fans. 2575 01:55:48,320 --> 01:55:53,080 Speaker 16: Return School made Doug got one of my rules output it. 2576 01:55:53,360 --> 01:55:56,360 Speaker 11: You're listening to the Van Morning Show on Sports Radio 2577 01:55:56,560 --> 01:55:59,640 Speaker 11: ninety three five and one oh seven five the fans. 2578 01:55:59,560 --> 01:56:00,640 Speaker 2: Kaywick, don't just my. 2579 01:56:02,600 --> 01:56:05,520 Speaker 1: Just curious mark. When you're driving somewhere and you just 2580 01:56:05,600 --> 01:56:07,800 Speaker 1: want to hear your tunes, what are you most likely 2581 01:56:07,920 --> 01:56:08,440 Speaker 1: to go to? 2582 01:56:10,040 --> 01:56:10,200 Speaker 15: Uh? 2583 01:56:10,600 --> 01:56:13,920 Speaker 4: Usually just fire up the Spotify and click shuffle or something. 2584 01:56:14,000 --> 01:56:17,600 Speaker 4: So usually it's you know, some raps, some nineties, two 2585 01:56:17,680 --> 01:56:19,600 Speaker 4: thousands rock, hard rock. 2586 01:56:19,520 --> 01:56:20,080 Speaker 3: All that stuff. 2587 01:56:20,080 --> 01:56:21,960 Speaker 4: I sprayed a lot of fields. So it just depends 2588 01:56:22,000 --> 01:56:24,440 Speaker 4: what the mood is of the day. So maybe we're 2589 01:56:24,480 --> 01:56:27,240 Speaker 4: getting some food fighters never want to right there, jay Z. 2590 01:56:27,440 --> 01:56:30,000 Speaker 4: Where we're getting some newer stuff like gunna. Maybe we're 2591 01:56:30,000 --> 01:56:33,160 Speaker 4: getting you know, who knows what. It just depends what 2592 01:56:33,320 --> 01:56:35,360 Speaker 4: the mood is. And then the usually the daughter's in 2593 01:56:35,400 --> 01:56:37,000 Speaker 4: the car and they say, can you play K pop 2594 01:56:37,080 --> 01:56:39,200 Speaker 4: Demon Hunters again? Yeah, let's play that from the nine 2595 01:56:39,280 --> 01:56:43,520 Speaker 4: thousandth time, Keep the Golden Yep, keep them Happy played 2596 01:56:43,520 --> 01:56:44,440 Speaker 4: the Utopia song. 2597 01:56:44,600 --> 01:56:48,160 Speaker 5: Okay, I do like Zoutopia? Is that Shakira Shakira? 2598 01:56:48,280 --> 01:56:53,880 Speaker 1: Of course fan hers because of the clear musical talent. 2599 01:56:54,000 --> 01:56:58,320 Speaker 5: Correct, WHOA you got it? 2600 01:57:00,240 --> 01:57:02,560 Speaker 1: I was checking out at ESPN dot com earlier this 2601 01:57:02,720 --> 01:57:08,040 Speaker 1: morning and I came across what this offseason this next 2602 01:57:08,080 --> 01:57:11,400 Speaker 1: week or two looks like for each team. And they've 2603 01:57:11,440 --> 01:57:13,640 Speaker 1: got this for the Indianapolis Colts. And I'm guessing Stephen 2604 01:57:13,640 --> 01:57:16,000 Speaker 1: Holder contributed to this quite a bit, although he's not 2605 01:57:16,200 --> 01:57:19,360 Speaker 1: named in here, but it says biggest need edge rush. 2606 01:57:19,480 --> 01:57:21,680 Speaker 1: Colts have gone through much trial and air and attempting 2607 01:57:21,720 --> 01:57:23,520 Speaker 1: to fill this need through the draft, but their best 2608 01:57:23,560 --> 01:57:26,480 Speaker 1: pass successes have come in free agency. With Quity Pay 2609 01:57:26,560 --> 01:57:29,000 Speaker 1: and others likely hitting free agency, look for the Colts 2610 01:57:29,040 --> 01:57:31,840 Speaker 1: to consider a veteran signing here to pair with lot 2611 01:57:31,920 --> 01:57:34,600 Speaker 1: to lats. And my question for you guys is simply this, 2612 01:57:34,760 --> 01:57:37,080 Speaker 1: And we did it with a specific Trey hendrickson the 2613 01:57:37,120 --> 01:57:39,000 Speaker 1: other day. But Kevin, if I had to ask you, 2614 01:57:39,160 --> 01:57:43,320 Speaker 1: Alec Pierce or rebuilding that defense, what's more important for 2615 01:57:43,400 --> 01:57:44,240 Speaker 1: the Colts out of the gate? 2616 01:57:44,800 --> 01:57:47,920 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it could be difficult to achieve both. 2617 01:57:48,560 --> 01:57:52,720 Speaker 7: Probably it is still Pierce as an individual, but their 2618 01:57:52,800 --> 01:57:57,000 Speaker 7: defense obviously needs definite retooling, you know, financially, it could 2619 01:57:57,000 --> 01:58:00,240 Speaker 7: look a little different on that front. But yeah, it's 2620 01:58:00,280 --> 01:58:02,800 Speaker 7: something we haven't talked a lot about in regards next week. 2621 01:58:03,080 --> 01:58:06,680 Speaker 7: And again, some of these players fans just want to 2622 01:58:06,720 --> 01:58:10,400 Speaker 7: be done with, which is fine. They do have about 2623 01:58:10,680 --> 01:58:14,880 Speaker 7: five starters, not Jones, not Pierce, five starters that could 2624 01:58:14,960 --> 01:58:19,400 Speaker 7: hit free agency next week offensively, Ahley Cox, Brayden Smith, 2625 01:58:20,040 --> 01:58:22,080 Speaker 7: defensively what he paid, Jermaine. 2626 01:58:21,760 --> 01:58:22,560 Speaker 5: Pratt, Nick Cross. 2627 01:58:23,360 --> 01:58:27,640 Speaker 7: So you know, again, obviously the importance of bringing those 2628 01:58:27,680 --> 01:58:30,680 Speaker 7: guys back not a lot for some of them, but others, 2629 01:58:30,960 --> 01:58:32,960 Speaker 7: you know, might have a little bit of a debate there. 2630 01:58:33,000 --> 01:58:34,160 Speaker 5: So just something to keep in mind. 2631 01:58:35,040 --> 01:58:36,560 Speaker 7: You know, right now we talk so much about Jones 2632 01:58:36,600 --> 01:58:38,920 Speaker 7: and Pierce, you add it all up, about thirty your 2633 01:58:38,960 --> 01:58:41,280 Speaker 7: starters are bound for free agency this year. 2634 01:58:42,280 --> 01:58:45,880 Speaker 1: I'll ask you the same question, James, overall defense and 2635 01:58:46,000 --> 01:58:49,000 Speaker 1: rebuilding that or Alec Pierce, what's the biggest priority for 2636 01:58:49,040 --> 01:58:49,520 Speaker 1: the Colts? 2637 01:58:51,240 --> 01:58:53,640 Speaker 6: Alec Pierce, because you told us all off season the 2638 01:58:53,800 --> 01:58:56,880 Speaker 6: two guys you were going to build around were Daniel Jones, 2639 01:58:56,920 --> 01:59:01,720 Speaker 6: and Alec Pierce. If you fail to not have both 2640 01:59:01,800 --> 01:59:04,960 Speaker 6: of them, it was a failure of an offseason for 2641 01:59:05,160 --> 01:59:06,160 Speaker 6: you as a franchise. 2642 01:59:06,760 --> 01:59:09,040 Speaker 3: So we'll see how that shakes out. 2643 01:59:10,160 --> 01:59:13,920 Speaker 6: But they really put themselves in a unique position because 2644 01:59:13,960 --> 01:59:17,240 Speaker 6: it's gonna cost a lot of money theoretically to get 2645 01:59:17,600 --> 01:59:19,920 Speaker 6: a long term deal done with Daniel Jones, and even 2646 01:59:19,960 --> 01:59:22,000 Speaker 6: if you spread a cap hit out over a few years, 2647 01:59:23,160 --> 01:59:25,640 Speaker 6: Alex Pearce is not cheap. And then you get to 2648 01:59:25,760 --> 01:59:30,040 Speaker 6: the defense that's not gonna be cheap. So how do 2649 01:59:30,120 --> 01:59:34,000 Speaker 6: you make your roster better in areas that you absolutely 2650 01:59:34,040 --> 01:59:36,800 Speaker 6: need to be better while also trying to run it 2651 01:59:36,920 --> 01:59:39,480 Speaker 6: back to a degree With the success you had last year. 2652 01:59:41,080 --> 01:59:43,560 Speaker 1: Offensive line, you expect to look mostly the same next year. 2653 01:59:43,640 --> 01:59:44,600 Speaker 5: Kevin, Yeah, I. 2654 01:59:44,640 --> 01:59:47,520 Speaker 7: Mean, I think you passed the torch from Bradsmith Jalen Travis, 2655 01:59:47,600 --> 01:59:50,000 Speaker 7: but you had the other spots. I mean, everybody is 2656 01:59:50,160 --> 01:59:52,880 Speaker 7: under contract. I think everybody's you know, pretty young. 2657 01:59:53,080 --> 01:59:56,080 Speaker 5: Honestly. You know, Nelson by no means is walking up 2658 01:59:56,080 --> 01:59:56,720 Speaker 5: the eighteenth hole. 2659 01:59:56,840 --> 02:00:00,680 Speaker 7: So you know, offensively, if you can get Jones and 2660 02:00:00,760 --> 02:00:04,280 Speaker 7: Pierce done, which again are big gifts, I don't know 2661 02:00:04,880 --> 02:00:05,640 Speaker 7: what you're doing to. 2662 02:00:05,680 --> 02:00:06,400 Speaker 3: That side of the ball. 2663 02:00:06,760 --> 02:00:08,800 Speaker 5: Moley Cox a free agent. I guess I'll mention Drew 2664 02:00:08,920 --> 02:00:10,520 Speaker 5: O Tree is also a free agent. 2665 02:00:11,040 --> 02:00:11,200 Speaker 9: You know. 2666 02:00:11,360 --> 02:00:13,160 Speaker 7: Is that a little bit of an age thing there? 2667 02:00:13,360 --> 02:00:15,200 Speaker 7: Ogle Tree is a lot younger than Ali Cox. Do 2668 02:00:15,240 --> 02:00:16,680 Speaker 7: you look at Moe and say, hey, he's still a 2669 02:00:16,720 --> 02:00:20,040 Speaker 7: good blocking tight end. It's a necessary part to your offense. 2670 02:00:20,120 --> 02:00:23,400 Speaker 6: O Ale Cox will be here, Okay, all right? One 2671 02:00:23,480 --> 02:00:26,480 Speaker 6: year deal from Ali Cox. He's like, uh, who's that 2672 02:00:26,560 --> 02:00:28,800 Speaker 6: base baseball player still getting paid by like the. 2673 02:00:28,800 --> 02:00:30,320 Speaker 1: Mets, Bobby Bonilla. 2674 02:00:30,480 --> 02:00:32,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's what That's what Moli Cox is. 2675 02:00:32,240 --> 02:00:33,680 Speaker 6: In my mind, I just expect him to be back 2676 02:00:33,760 --> 02:00:36,200 Speaker 6: every year on a one year deal, making decent money 2677 02:00:36,240 --> 02:00:37,200 Speaker 6: and be in a great locker room. 2678 02:00:37,240 --> 02:00:38,760 Speaker 3: Quote, don't take Moley Cox from me. 2679 02:00:39,040 --> 02:00:42,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, he certainly has signed a lot of short term deals. 2680 02:00:42,600 --> 02:00:45,520 Speaker 1: To percentage of keeping Nick Cross is what. 2681 02:00:49,520 --> 02:00:53,640 Speaker 3: Boy I will lean towards, maybe thirty percent. 2682 02:00:54,880 --> 02:00:55,160 Speaker 1: Kevin. 2683 02:00:57,080 --> 02:01:00,760 Speaker 7: Yeah, the safety market is always weird. Yeah, scent comes 2684 02:01:00,800 --> 02:01:03,640 Speaker 7: to mind, but you know again, it is. We saw 2685 02:01:03,720 --> 02:01:05,680 Speaker 7: this a couple years ago with Julian Blackman. He expected 2686 02:01:05,720 --> 02:01:07,480 Speaker 7: a big, long term deal and then all of a 2687 02:01:07,480 --> 02:01:09,160 Speaker 7: sudden it got to April and he was like, wait 2688 02:01:09,160 --> 02:01:12,400 Speaker 7: a minute, that's what the safety market looks like. But 2689 02:01:12,520 --> 02:01:14,720 Speaker 7: it's just hard to see them be in a position 2690 02:01:14,840 --> 02:01:17,040 Speaker 7: to where, Yeah, in a perfect world, you bring Nick 2691 02:01:17,120 --> 02:01:19,680 Speaker 7: Cross back. He was one of the youngest drafted players 2692 02:01:19,800 --> 02:01:22,440 Speaker 7: ever in his draft class. You thought there'd be some 2693 02:01:22,520 --> 02:01:24,560 Speaker 7: early growing pains, he'd be a sending player by the 2694 02:01:24,640 --> 02:01:25,680 Speaker 7: end of his rookie contract. 2695 02:01:25,680 --> 02:01:27,920 Speaker 5: I would say, that's played out how you thought it. 2696 02:01:28,000 --> 02:01:32,520 Speaker 7: But you know, teams just don't pay safeties multiple contracts 2697 02:01:32,560 --> 02:01:35,000 Speaker 7: back there, of note, and again Cross wouldn't break the 2698 02:01:35,160 --> 02:01:37,880 Speaker 7: bank numerically, but like, if you're paying a second safety 2699 02:01:37,920 --> 02:01:41,800 Speaker 7: over five million dollars, that's pretty rare in today's NFL. 2700 02:01:41,960 --> 02:01:44,320 Speaker 5: So yeah, I think thirty percent is probably a good 2701 02:01:44,360 --> 02:01:44,880 Speaker 5: number to throw out. 2702 02:01:44,880 --> 02:01:46,000 Speaker 4: I remember it was a couple of years ago as 2703 02:01:46,040 --> 02:01:50,480 Speaker 4: like like uh, Jamal Adams and Micah Hyde and Justin 2704 02:01:50,520 --> 02:01:52,320 Speaker 4: Simmons were all out there and they signed like one 2705 02:01:52,400 --> 02:01:54,000 Speaker 4: year deals and everything. I was like, oh my god, 2706 02:01:54,040 --> 02:01:55,520 Speaker 4: look at the safety market and then they kind of 2707 02:01:55,560 --> 02:01:57,880 Speaker 4: like the running back market. Yeah, so there's all these 2708 02:01:57,920 --> 02:01:59,760 Speaker 4: big name safeties and then they signed for one year 2709 02:01:59,800 --> 02:02:02,160 Speaker 4: deal somewhere, seeing which I looked it up a few 2710 02:02:02,200 --> 02:02:05,680 Speaker 4: weeks ago. You know they're paying buying them cam buying 2711 02:02:05,720 --> 02:02:07,800 Speaker 4: them fifteen million a year. I want to say, there's 2712 02:02:07,800 --> 02:02:10,160 Speaker 4: only like three teams in the league that are paying 2713 02:02:10,320 --> 02:02:14,040 Speaker 4: two safeties over five million a year. It's just not 2714 02:02:15,080 --> 02:02:19,839 Speaker 4: how teams, you know, view that position. I mean, outside 2715 02:02:19,880 --> 02:02:22,800 Speaker 4: of linebackers, probably the next position up defensively in terms 2716 02:02:22,840 --> 02:02:27,160 Speaker 4: of resources and investment. And again they already invested into 2717 02:02:27,880 --> 02:02:28,480 Speaker 4: cambuying them. 2718 02:02:28,880 --> 02:02:31,800 Speaker 1: Phone lines open. Paul wants to talk Anthony Richardson very 2719 02:02:31,920 --> 02:02:35,480 Speaker 1: quickly here, Paul, go ahead, Yeah, Hey. 2720 02:02:35,480 --> 02:02:36,360 Speaker 8: Calling in great. 2721 02:02:36,840 --> 02:02:40,360 Speaker 12: I talked Anthony Richardson. I know, like two weeks ago 2722 02:02:40,440 --> 02:02:41,480 Speaker 12: they were staying. 2723 02:02:41,920 --> 02:02:44,920 Speaker 8: Or like he was going to be ready to go 2724 02:02:45,160 --> 02:02:46,080 Speaker 8: this October. 2725 02:02:46,800 --> 02:02:49,520 Speaker 12: And I wish they'd talked him in the stand like 2726 02:02:50,600 --> 02:02:53,440 Speaker 12: Jeff George was saying, you know, he'd even love to 2727 02:02:53,520 --> 02:02:57,160 Speaker 12: see him, but I know he's he wanted to go. 2728 02:02:58,120 --> 02:03:04,040 Speaker 12: But way I hope they get I don't I know 2729 02:03:04,160 --> 02:03:08,160 Speaker 12: they get somebody else, I know with you know what 2730 02:03:08,400 --> 02:03:12,600 Speaker 12: else they've got going. And I saw Scott Skiles in 2731 02:03:12,720 --> 02:03:13,280 Speaker 12: eighty nine. 2732 02:03:13,400 --> 02:03:18,480 Speaker 8: He was great, like what James was saying, But I 2733 02:03:18,560 --> 02:03:20,480 Speaker 8: don't know what do you guys think? And I know 2734 02:03:21,760 --> 02:03:22,720 Speaker 8: j and B was just. 2735 02:03:22,800 --> 02:03:25,360 Speaker 12: Talking about maybe the way they're getting rid of people. 2736 02:03:25,840 --> 02:03:28,640 Speaker 12: If you guys would pick who comes and goes, I 2737 02:03:28,800 --> 02:03:30,120 Speaker 12: think it would be a lot better. 2738 02:03:30,360 --> 02:03:40,720 Speaker 8: Plus my guy. As far as not, I'm trying to think, 2739 02:03:41,160 --> 02:03:46,120 Speaker 8: who's the guy that leaving the Franklin. 2740 02:03:46,560 --> 02:03:49,320 Speaker 12: I mean, I can't believe they're letting him go. A 2741 02:03:49,440 --> 02:03:53,760 Speaker 12: year ago it was like four hundred and seventy eight yards. 2742 02:03:54,520 --> 02:03:57,920 Speaker 12: You know he had, But why are they letting him go? 2743 02:03:58,120 --> 02:04:00,200 Speaker 12: I think he's really great, Paul. 2744 02:04:00,200 --> 02:04:02,200 Speaker 1: I appreciate the punk.

You want to know what you're dealing 2777 02:05:24,840 --> 02:05:26,000 Speaker 3: with money wise exactly. 2778 02:05:26,160 --> 02:05:28,280 Speaker 6: So it wouldn't surprise me at all if we get 2779 02:05:28,320 --> 02:05:31,800 Speaker 6: some news later today on roster decisions and stuff like that. 2780 02:05:32,040 --> 02:05:34,520 Speaker 6: But again, one name out threw out there, Michael Pittman JUNR. 2781 02:05:35,200 --> 02:05:39,400 Speaker 6: He's the big fish. When it comes to the cap 2782 02:05:39,560 --> 02:05:40,320 Speaker 6: cut candidate. 2783 02:05:41,000 --> 02:05:42,360 Speaker 3: But can you really. 2784 02:05:42,160 --> 02:05:43,840 Speaker 6: Afford to move on from him if you don't know 2785 02:05:44,520 --> 02:05:47,520 Speaker 6: if you're gonna have Alec Pierce Because worst case scenario, 2786 02:05:47,760 --> 02:05:50,800 Speaker 6: you cut Michael Pittman Junior to create enough cast base 2787 02:05:50,840 --> 02:05:52,800 Speaker 6: for Alec Pears and he still leaves, and now you 2788 02:05:52,840 --> 02:05:55,440 Speaker 6: don't have either of your top two receivers from last year. 2789 02:05:55,680 --> 02:05:56,760 Speaker 3: And get it, I get it. 2790 02:05:57,360 --> 02:06:01,000 Speaker 6: Pittman might not be your number one receiver anymore, but 2791 02:06:01,360 --> 02:06:03,840 Speaker 6: at the same time, he's better than what you have 2792 02:06:04,160 --> 02:06:05,400 Speaker 6: if both those guys leave. 2793 02:06:05,520 --> 02:06:08,240 Speaker 1: For sure, Kevin, you said something a minute ago about 2794 02:06:09,360 --> 02:06:12,000 Speaker 1: up to thirty free agents potential for the Colts? 2795 02:06:12,040 --> 02:06:12,720 Speaker 2: Is that? Is that? What? 2796 02:06:13,040 --> 02:06:15,560 Speaker 1: Did I mis hear that you said something about thirty 2797 02:06:15,760 --> 02:06:16,840 Speaker 1: players not too long? 2798 02:06:16,960 --> 02:06:17,120 Speaker 15: Oh? 2799 02:06:17,360 --> 02:06:19,760 Speaker 3: No, no, five free agents? Starters? 2800 02:06:19,800 --> 02:06:22,240 Speaker 1: I thought I said a third of the third, Thank 2801 02:06:22,280 --> 02:06:23,440 Speaker 1: you very much. I misheard you. 2802 02:06:23,800 --> 02:06:26,400 Speaker 5: Their starters seven of twenty two. I think it is 2803 02:06:26,400 --> 02:06:26,720 Speaker 5: a number. 2804 02:06:26,840 --> 02:06:28,520 Speaker 1: That's why I didn't quite understand that. That makes a 2805 02:06:28,560 --> 02:06:31,080 Speaker 1: lot more sense. But of that fifty three man roster 2806 02:06:31,160 --> 02:06:33,280 Speaker 1: we saw at the end of the year, how different 2807 02:06:33,320 --> 02:06:35,160 Speaker 1: does that look like? How many new faces are we 2808 02:06:35,240 --> 02:06:36,000 Speaker 1: looking at next year? 2809 02:06:36,040 --> 02:06:36,120 Speaker 7: Do you? 2810 02:06:36,320 --> 02:06:36,480 Speaker 9: Yeah? 2811 02:06:36,480 --> 02:06:39,160 Speaker 1: I mean I between draft picks and everything else, I think. 2812 02:06:39,040 --> 02:06:42,280 Speaker 5: You definitely will see a decent amount of newness. You know, again, 2813 02:06:42,400 --> 02:06:43,240 Speaker 5: just look at defensive end. 2814 02:06:43,280 --> 02:06:45,960 Speaker 7: For example, three of their top four guys from playing 2815 02:06:46,040 --> 02:06:49,520 Speaker 7: time last year, what do you pay Samson, Ebcom, Twikon Lewis. 2816 02:06:49,720 --> 02:06:53,120 Speaker 7: They're free agents. I could see all three of those walking, 2817 02:06:53,280 --> 02:06:55,600 Speaker 7: and then obviously you need new players, so right there, 2818 02:06:56,320 --> 02:06:58,080 Speaker 7: you're going to turn it over a good amount, you know. 2819 02:06:58,160 --> 02:06:59,800 Speaker 7: I am kind of curious. Do we get some Friday 2820 02:06:59,840 --> 02:07:03,000 Speaker 7: new dumbs today? You know, the old Friday at four 2821 02:07:03,000 --> 02:07:05,920 Speaker 7: o'clock press releases. Do we get some of that around 2822 02:07:05,960 --> 02:07:07,879 Speaker 7: the league a Friday before free agency? 2823 02:07:07,960 --> 02:07:08,120 Speaker 2: Do you? 2824 02:07:08,600 --> 02:07:08,800 Speaker 9: Hey? 2825 02:07:08,960 --> 02:07:10,880 Speaker 5: Let's you know, it's part ways of the veteran. We're 2826 02:07:10,920 --> 02:07:12,680 Speaker 5: doing them as solid. We're getting them a forty eight 2827 02:07:12,720 --> 02:07:15,480 Speaker 5: hour head starting free agency. But really we just want 2828 02:07:15,520 --> 02:07:18,360 Speaker 5: to try to make sure it happens in the quietest 2829 02:07:18,960 --> 02:07:19,520 Speaker 5: news cycle. 2830 02:07:19,760 --> 02:07:21,600 Speaker 4: James is gonna roll up to the mill and immediately 2831 02:07:21,640 --> 02:07:23,080 Speaker 4: news is gonna break and he's gonna sit in his 2832 02:07:23,200 --> 02:07:24,720 Speaker 4: car for two hours writing stories. 2833 02:07:24,840 --> 02:07:26,880 Speaker 7: Well, and speaking of writing a story, is James Boyd? 2834 02:07:26,880 --> 02:07:28,360 Speaker 7: Did I see you went with one of your own 2835 02:07:28,760 --> 02:07:31,920 Speaker 7: in the quarterback position in your latest mock draft. 2836 02:07:32,320 --> 02:07:32,640 Speaker 3: I did. 2837 02:07:33,120 --> 02:07:37,640 Speaker 6: I picked that Luke Outmire, Illinois quarterback and I believe 2838 02:07:37,680 --> 02:07:41,200 Speaker 6: the seventh round. But also in that mock draft, I 2839 02:07:41,600 --> 02:07:45,120 Speaker 6: got a little chaotic there in the middle. I predicted 2840 02:07:45,160 --> 02:07:46,680 Speaker 6: that Ali Pierce would leave and we got to get 2841 02:07:46,680 --> 02:07:47,040 Speaker 6: a receiver. 2842 02:07:47,160 --> 02:07:47,400 Speaker 3: Baby. 2843 02:07:47,760 --> 02:07:51,320 Speaker 5: So you waited till round four for a white out 2844 02:07:51,480 --> 02:07:53,120 Speaker 5: with Alec Pierce leaping. 2845 02:07:53,280 --> 02:07:55,920 Speaker 6: Yes, because I think you still have to address some 2846 02:07:56,040 --> 02:08:01,200 Speaker 6: other needs before that, namely probably line and defensive end. 2847 02:08:01,520 --> 02:08:05,000 Speaker 6: But in my mind, you're not going to replace Alec 2848 02:08:05,040 --> 02:08:07,960 Speaker 6: Pierce in the draft anyway if he does move on 2849 02:08:09,720 --> 02:08:12,320 Speaker 6: and then and then, so in my mind, I would 2850 02:08:12,360 --> 02:08:17,240 Speaker 6: go with drafting a receiver in the fourth round, maybe 2851 02:08:17,240 --> 02:08:19,640 Speaker 6: even someer than that, but also trying to add a 2852 02:08:19,720 --> 02:08:20,680 Speaker 6: veteran in free agency. 2853 02:08:21,040 --> 02:08:24,600 Speaker 5: I'd probably bump wide out up, move linebacker back because 2854 02:08:24,680 --> 02:08:28,160 Speaker 5: they've been so good at drafting linebacker. That's fair now, 2855 02:08:28,240 --> 02:08:31,120 Speaker 5: And I'd probably re sign Jermaine Pratt. I would look 2856 02:08:31,160 --> 02:08:33,400 Speaker 5: into that because you know, the thing you do lose 2857 02:08:33,520 --> 02:08:35,640 Speaker 5: if and when you trade air Franklin or cut him. 2858 02:08:35,920 --> 02:08:37,920 Speaker 7: I mean, he has been what the quarterback your defense 2859 02:08:38,040 --> 02:08:40,920 Speaker 7: for I mean, how many years in rows? Is now 2860 02:08:41,320 --> 02:08:41,800 Speaker 7: four or five? 2861 02:08:42,240 --> 02:08:43,920 Speaker 5: Trying to think of, like the last time somebody else 2862 02:08:43,960 --> 02:08:45,160 Speaker 5: called place for this defense was it. 2863 02:08:46,440 --> 02:08:48,920 Speaker 6: Might have been, But he's been here. Yeah, he's been 2864 02:08:48,920 --> 02:08:51,640 Speaker 6: in that saddle for quite a while. And overall he's 2865 02:08:51,680 --> 02:08:56,640 Speaker 6: a six year team captain, so quite the change. 2866 02:08:56,360 --> 02:08:58,480 Speaker 5: Special teams, you know, if you count them all up. 2867 02:08:58,520 --> 02:09:01,320 Speaker 6: I mean, he's been a pretty big presidents leadership wise 2868 02:09:01,840 --> 02:09:02,600 Speaker 6: for your franchise. 2869 02:09:03,120 --> 02:09:06,520 Speaker 1: All right, one last reminder that six pm tonight deadline 2870 02:09:06,560 --> 02:09:09,160 Speaker 1: for the Early Bird Special on the Fan Invitational Golf 2871 02:09:09,240 --> 02:09:13,280 Speaker 1: Outing presented by Franciscan Health.
