7
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 2: over here. The head coaches here as well. In a

8
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 2: good crowd on hand. Give yourselves a round of a clause. Here.

9
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 3: We're at Buffalo Wild.

10
00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 2: Wings on campus right next door to Williams Arena.

11
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 3: Gophers were off over the weekend.

12
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,840
Speaker 2: Obviously got the big win last week over the number

13
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,479
Speaker 2: nineteen Indiana Hoosiers, a court storming at the end. It

14
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 2: was a pretty exciting way to get your first big

15
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 2: ten victory. Man, Yeah, I was a heck of a game.

16
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 4: It was really fun to see the crowd and the

17
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 4: students really get into the game, especially in the second half,

18
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 4: and how the students have fun and rush the court.

19
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 3: It said, it doesn't get much better than that.

20
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 2: What was you know last week when we were here,

21
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 2: you know, it wasn't it, It wasn't it was a

22
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 2: down or because of the news, the injury news. Your

23
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 2: point guard was out, your starting center was still going

24
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,559
Speaker 2: to be a little while, it sounded like, and others

25
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 2: hadn't even played yet that you were hoping to count on.

26
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 2: So I wasn't thinking it was hopeless to beat the

27
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 2: ranked team, but uh, it was. You're going to be

28
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 2: a big underdog, and here we are a week later, uh,

29
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 2: celebrating a nice win. So take me through the message

30
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 2: to that team, to your team, UH to get that

31
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 2: kind of an effort from them.

32
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 3: Well, I'll back up, and I think I told you before.

33
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 4: My guess is the security folks that Williams Arena didn't

34
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 4: have it on the Bingo card that the court storm

35
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 4: might happen, but they probably it was coming down the end.

36
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 4: You're like, oh my gosh, you know what I mean,

37
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 4: we got to be ready for this now, you know,

38
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 4: I don't you know, I'd love to come up here

39
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 4: and say there was some sort of magical, you know

40
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 4: thing that you said. I think you know you're you're

41
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 4: always honest with the guys, and you know, tell them

42
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 4: the things that we're going to have to do. These

43
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 4: are the things that are going to show up, and

44
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 4: you know, no one's going to feel sorry for you.

45
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 4: And obviously I thought they gave maximum effort. We did

46
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 4: the things that we needed to do to be successful.

47
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:09,800
Speaker 4: We were able to build some confidence, I thought as

48
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 4: the game went on and a lot of guys stepped

49
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 4: up and played really, really well. I thought our defense

50
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,239
Speaker 4: in the second half was tremendous.

51
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 5: So what that's where I wanted to go. You said

52
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 5: that last week, when when you're short handed, you're undermanned,

53
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 5: there's just non negotiables that have to be there. So

54
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 5: what were those for the Indian I'm sure they're general ones,

55
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 5: but the Indiana game specifically.

56
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 4: I think, you know, obviously, transition defense was was huge.

57
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,519
Speaker 4: We have to control that. We have to get back.

58
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 4: We have to make them score in a half court rebounding.

59
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 4: It sounds so simple, but you know, we have to

60
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 4: a team that has that kind of firepower. You're giving

61
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 4: them second and third opportunities, you really aren't going to

62
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 4: have much of a chance. You know, then could we

63
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 4: find a way to get some second and third opportunities?

64
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 4: I thought we nailed both of those things. I thought

65
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 4: those things were really really good. You know, we talked

66
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 4: about obviously limiting Wilkerson and Devrez's threes. You know, if

67
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 4: those guys are just making them, but if they're shooting

68
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,080
Speaker 4: fifteen threes between them, it's hard. And I thought we

69
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 4: really did a great job on those two guys who

70
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 4: really made it difficult for them to get clean looks

71
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 4: and score.

72
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 3: So I thought we nailed, you know, those three things.

73
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 4: Offensively, I thought we did a great job, you know,

74
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,240
Speaker 4: being patient when we had I didn't run as much

75
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 4: as we normally would, just based on numbers.

76
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 3: The only thing I didn't think we did.

77
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 4: I thought we turned the ball over too much, you know,

78
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 4: and some critical situations that way. But those were the

79
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 4: things that happened to and then maybe bigger than any

80
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,679
Speaker 4: of them, we had to be the scrappy or tougher team.

81
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 4: I mean, we had to find a way where we

82
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 4: weren't going to be able to look at the end

83
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 4: of the game, regardless of the score and say, hey,

84
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 4: you know, that team just outfought us.

85
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 3: And so we did those things. The guys bought in.

86
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 4: We sort of stayed out of foul trouble, not necessarily,

87
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 4: but again, I thought we nailed those things, and then

88
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 4: we got some confidence going. I thought the crowd actually

89
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 4: really helped us in the second half, maybe gave us

90
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 4: another boost and got a huge win.

91
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 5: Was there a time where you said, we're doing all

92
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 5: these things now it seemed like the thought, well, now

93
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 5: it's time to take the game.

94
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 3: The guys hit a couple of shots.

95
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 5: I think about the Dirkin shot where the ball just

96
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 5: barely got by whoever, I think it was Deviris snuck around.

97
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 5: It's like when that one goes down, it's like, all right,

98
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 5: I can see the runway, I can see we can

99
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 5: land this thing. Was there a point in the game

100
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 5: where you start thinking, all right, let's bring this one home.

101
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I started to feel that. I really felt,

102
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 4: you know, going into halftime. We made that run at

103
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 4: the end of the first half, I'm like, okay, we're

104
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 4: right here, like you know, we can continue to do.

105
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 4: Like I said, nothing that happened in the first twenty

106
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 4: minutes of the game has anything to do with what's

107
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 4: going to happen in the next twenty you know, ten

108
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 4: minutes to go. Everything that happened in the first thirty

109
00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 4: has nothing to do with what's about to happen in

110
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 4: the next ten. But we put ourselves in position and

111
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 4: so I think the guys just start you could feel

112
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 4: that there was a confidence in what we were doing

113
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 4: and we were playing the right way, and like, yeah,

114
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:47,360
Speaker 4: that was kind of palpable, I thought in the in

115
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 4: the huddles.

116
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 2: And as those guys started to gain belief, the defense

117
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,359
Speaker 2: continue to get stops. And I want to ask specific

118
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 2: about Langston Reynolds.

119
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 3: You're talking about Darren.

120
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 2: Deris era, Darren Devrees's Tucker, who's two time Valley Player

121
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 2: of the Year. And when you're Valley Player of the Year,

122
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 2: you've got, you know, potential NBA future in your hands.

123
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 2: And he's a tall kid that can shoot, rebound and

124
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 2: do things. What did Langston Reynolds do to force him

125
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 2: into a three for thirteen shooting night.

126
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 4: Well, I think you know, you start simple and you say, okay,

127
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 4: what's one thing that we have to try to take

128
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 4: away from him? And that was obviously the catch and

129
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,839
Speaker 4: shoot threes. You know, we couldn't allow him to shoot

130
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 4: threes because he's such a dangerou shooter, especially early he's

131
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 4: he's one go in and you got a real problem

132
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 4: on your hands. And so we did a great job.

133
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 4: We had to do some switching at the point of attack.

134
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 4: They do some pretty kind of creative screening stuff and

135
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 4: we decided to kind of you know, we call him

136
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 4: steer steer and switch some of these actions. But with

137
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 4: him in particular, it was, you know, got to go

138
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 4: over the top, you know, you got to get into

139
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 4: the ball. You have to try to pressure him. You know,

140
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 4: we had he was a smaller guy. We had to

141
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 4: try to pressure him. We did, you know, elected to

142
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 4: play one on one in the post. Again, him making

143
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 4: two's was not as what we were concerned about. It

144
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 4: was making threes, and so I thought we nailed that.

145
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 4: I thought we were on point. We got over the

146
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 4: top of handoffs, ball screens, switched when we needed to

147
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 4: got into him. We were there on the catch the

148
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,039
Speaker 4: entire night, and I thought we really frustrated him. You know,

149
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 4: the two threes he made. One was an offensive rebound.

150
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 4: They didn't have many kickout which are hard. And then

151
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 4: you know, out of a time out, we adjusted and

152
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 4: it's a little defensive set we do out of an

153
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 4: ato and man, we had it covered. And Kate Tyson

154
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 4: would be the first one to tell you if he

155
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 4: walked in here, he just went brain dead there for

156
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 4: a second, and he'd if I asked him at practice

157
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,640
Speaker 4: to day what happened there's he just said, He's like, man, coach,

158
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 4: I'm I just I just lost my mind there.

159
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,239
Speaker 3: For a second play coaching.

160
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, Well he has an excuse, I guess, but but

161
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 4: that was it, you know.

162
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,280
Speaker 3: Other than that, I thought we did a great job. Yeah,

163
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:46,840
Speaker 3: And I think you're right.

164
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 2: It looked to me like he was taking on some frustration,

165
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 2: and you know, you don't want to show that.

166
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 3: But he he I.

167
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 2: Thought Langston was physical with him, yeah, and bumping him

168
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 2: and in big ten play, you can do that.

169
00:06:58,360 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 3: They're not going to call that.

170
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,360
Speaker 2: And then even maybe there was one or two other

171
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 2: open ones that he missed pretty badly, And I just

172
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 2: think it was one of those nights that I don't know.

173
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 2: I'm not going to say you got in the kid's

174
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 2: head because he's such a good player, but I thought

175
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 2: it was visibly he was frustrated.

176
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 4: It's really important when you play against great shooters or

177
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 4: scores to try to shut their water off early. You know,

178
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,239
Speaker 4: if you if you have a communication issues or whatever,

179
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 4: and they see one going early in the game or

180
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,400
Speaker 4: a couple, then all of a sudden, all those tough

181
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 4: ones start to go in and you got a problem

182
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 4: on your hands. I mean, you see it at every level.

183
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 4: So I thought we did a good job, and we

184
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 4: did the same thing on Wilkerson. I mean, Wilkerson is

185
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 4: a dangerous player. We probably let him get behind us

186
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 4: a couple times, you know, too many times on some

187
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 4: of the back cuts. But at the end of the day,

188
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 4: we weren't allowing him to shoot threes and that's what

189
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 4: they do best.

190
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 2: Was it also kind of fun to see a team

191
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 2: if they were seventy eight percent free throw shooting and

192
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 2: they started the second half three for ten.

193
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, I wonder if people are asking them if they

194
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 4: did they practice throw Yeah. Yeah, Well I wonder if

195
00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 4: that's a topic converse. I mean, guys, you Jan Fisher's

196
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 4: bringing up for Suah. You know, I'm pretty sure I

197
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 4: know their team. They're not that concerned. They're a great

198
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 4: free throw shooting team. It just happened, you know, to

199
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 4: be that. But I will say this, you know, it's different.

200
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 4: They had played from the lead in most of your games.

201
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 4: For sure, when you're playing from behind a little bit

202
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 4: and you step up there and it's like for the

203
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 4: first time, you know, on the road, boy, these are

204
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 4: huge free throws now, right, man, we missed the front

205
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 4: end of a one on one here. We miss these

206
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 4: like we really need to cash in here. It's a

207
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 4: different feeling.

208
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 5: On a scale from zero to PJ Fleck, how would

209
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 5: you rate your go go first scream into the camera

210
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 5: after your Andy Katz interview?

211
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 3: Well, PJ is like like an eleven or twelve? Right, that's.

212
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, so zero to PJ. Yeah, God, I'm gonna

213
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 4: say it. Let's just say PJ is a ten, but

214
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 4: it's not a normal ten. Right, what'd you think?

215
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 3: Seven? Yeah, I give you a seven. Yeah, you know

216
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 3: what I mean. I would give you a normal people.

217
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,359
Speaker 3: It was decent, I think, but like you really stand.

218
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 5: Your first step was quick because I didn't see it coming.

219
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:01,960
Speaker 5: I didn't see it coming from that you were going

220
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 5: to go, right, Andy, go go first as loud as

221
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 5: you possibly could. So, but that's what sports is about, right.

222
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 5: You gotta have fun, like.

223
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 4: You gotta have fun, And I love One of my

224
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 4: favorite things is I love these fans everywhere to month.

225
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 3: Oh, I can't believe, you know, students storm the court

226
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:16,559
Speaker 3: for this game.

227
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,680
Speaker 4: Or they try to like tell you what they think

228
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 4: is the right, there's very strict rules, okay by some people.

229
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 4: You know how ridiculous that is in my opinion, Like,

230
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 4: at the end of the day, isn't it about having fun?

231
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,080
Speaker 4: Should be he wants students to have fun. I don't

232
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 4: care if they rush the court every game, you know

233
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 4: what I mean. And I remember during COVID at Colorado

234
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 4: State we came off of COVID.

235
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 3: Fans couldn't go to the games. We had an unbelievable year.

236
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 4: We were ranked and whatever we were at, I don't

237
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 4: think we lost at home and our students would. We

238
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 4: got to this point where this tradition the students came

239
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 4: on the court, rushed the court after even games were

240
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 4: favored in and people would ask the question It's like, oh, okay,

241
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 4: we beat Air Force at home or whatever, and they

242
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 4: came up. I'm like, guys, these people, these kids have

243
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,439
Speaker 4: been locked up for two years or whatever, like, let

244
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 4: them have fun. We want them to come to the

245
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 4: basketball games, have a great time, enjoy it, make memories,

246
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 4: and want to come back the next game. The last

247
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,439
Speaker 4: time I checked, that's the idea. All we do is

248
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 4: sit around and talk about, oh, we want students to

249
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,160
Speaker 4: show up. We got to make their experience fun. So

250
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 4: thank you for storming the court, thank you for having fun.

251
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 4: We want you at the games. You made a huge

252
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 4: difference the other night.

253
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, no doubt.

254
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, whenever there's any kind of a court storm or

255
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 2: a field rush, the yeah, the court storm, field rush,

256
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 2: police show up with it.

257
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 4: And I get it. There's dangers. I had that part.

258
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 4: I do understand. Well, that's a safety can get issue.

259
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,239
Speaker 4: But as far as like my goodness, like, let students

260
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 4: have fun at the games, that's what this is about.

261
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:37,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that was fun. That was a fun night.

262
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 5: Graham has a picture of me at forty two years

263
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 5: old on the floor last year. Yeah, that's for one

264
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 5: of the games. In my defense, my children wanted to

265
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 5: go yeah, and I said, yeah, go ahead, let's go. Yeah,

266
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:48,680
Speaker 5: And we walked ourselves up there and it was great.

267
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 5: Graham has a great picture of me at mid court.

268
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 2: Well guards, you gave away a couple of tickets and

269
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:53,680
Speaker 2: a father and a daughter rush.

270
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, last got with Goldie. Yeah it was the best. Yeah,

271
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 6: it's the best. And those are memories that totally that

272
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 6: they have. Those are memories that they'll have and remember

273
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 6: for the rest of their life.

274
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 2: From from the standpoint of a crowd. You mentioned it,

275
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 2: I thought it was. It became a factor in that

276
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 2: second half when when all of a sudden it was like, geez,

277
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 2: get a stop here, Oh man, get a stop here.

278
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 2: Every time Indiana was bringing the ball up, people were

279
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 2: on their feet.

280
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was. It was kind of fun.

281
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 4: I kind of may I would get so locked into

282
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 4: the game there, but for a second, I'm kind of like, Hey,

283
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 4: the Barn's alive, you know what I mean, the barns alive.

284
00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,960
Speaker 4: Let's go and it can be like, as everyone knows,

285
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,319
Speaker 4: could be an unbelievable home court. And I definitely thought

286
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 4: they were a factor there right at the end of

287
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:35,839
Speaker 4: the first half and definitely in the second half.

288
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 2: From that standpoint, we should mention Gopher sports dot com

289
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 2: for future home games. Tickets are available, so come on

290
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 2: out and enjoying the fun.

291
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 3: Student section was pretty full. I think it was.

292
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 2: It was technically a sellout for students, and that is

293
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:50,679
Speaker 2: all part of the of the fun.

294
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,320
Speaker 4: Right absolutely, And you know six o'clock they always fill

295
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 4: in a little bit late. But again, I thought at

296
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 4: the end of the first half and then into the

297
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 4: second half, you know that the students really came in

298
00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 4: and then obviously we gave something to cheer about.

299
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt. All right, let's take our first break.

300
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 2: We will continue to review the Indiana game. It's another

00:17:58,440 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 3: Gophers knocked off Indiana.

411
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 2: We Mike Grim along with Justin Guard and the head coach,

412
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 2: Nico Medved plus fifteen in the rebounding battle as well

413
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 2: against the Hoosiers. And I know you've talked about a

414
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,360
Speaker 2: lot of the different keys to that, but the way

415
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,399
Speaker 2: you were able to control the glass had to be

416
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 2: a big part of it.

417
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 4: I really like how this show's going. We just keep

418
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 4: talking about yeah, no doubt. Yeah, we don't even have

419
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:24,680
Speaker 4: to talk about Purdue. You controlled the narrative of the

420
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 4: show all year long. How you play and how everything

421
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 4: goes huge part. I mean the rebounding was massed. That

422
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,520
Speaker 4: might have ended up being the biggest key in the game.

423
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 4: To be honest, is that we did a great job

424
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 4: on the defensive glass. We were able to get to

425
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 4: the offensive glass, and I think our ability to be

426
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 4: really really good there might have been the biggest factor

427
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 4: in the game.

428
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 3: I ask you about this in postgame.

429
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,199
Speaker 2: We've seen it on social media, the play that Grayson

430
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,920
Speaker 2: Grove made on devrees where he's going in for the

431
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 2: dunk and he's kind of cruising in because he feels

432
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 2: it's there. And it's one of those weird plays too,

433
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,439
Speaker 2: because as it's happening and I'm like, oh no, here

434
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 2: comes a three point play kind of a deal, like

435
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 2: sometimes you're just gonna want to let a guy get

436
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,160
Speaker 2: the dunk, but in this case, no chance he gets

437
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 2: the dunk.

438
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 3: It's clean.

439
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 2: He goes off to the side, he's almost off the

440
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 2: floor talking about Grove Gophers get the rebound and people

441
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:13,159
Speaker 2: have seen it.

442
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:14,160
Speaker 3: Then it's the other way.

443
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 2: Now Grayson doesn't get the bucket, but he draws a

444
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 2: foul running the rim.

445
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 3: Running to the rim. I mean, what a play, right,

446
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 3: I mean every.

447
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,359
Speaker 2: Coach in the country probably showed that clip to their

448
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 2: team at some point.

449
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 4: Since it's funny because there was a play in a

450
00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 4: game a few games back where a similar situation happened,

451
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,440
Speaker 4: and we kind of and it's sometimes it's the first

452
00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,639
Speaker 4: guy in the chase down, but it's everybody else, right,

453
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 4: they miss it and somebody else has to clean up.

454
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 4: A lot of people just assume the make and so

455
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 4: it was really cool to see those guys now when

456
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 4: it happened again live in the game, to be like,

457
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 4: that's not what we're doing here, you know. And but

458
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 4: for him to check in like that and make that play,

459
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 4: even though we didn't cash in on the free throws,

460
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 4: I just thought that was such a huge energy play

461
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 4: and just again set the tone of how we You

462
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 4: mentioned the things we had to do, that's being the

463
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 4: scrappy or tougher team, and that really showed up.

464
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 3: Was was it Dirkin that got the rebound?

465
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 2: So was that I can't remember now, but somebody had,

466
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 2: like you said, if everyone's kind of half jogging, Indiana

467
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 2: could get a put back there, But you guys had

468
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 2: people in place to.

469
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, got the rebound, and then yeah we threw it ahead.

470
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 4: And then obviously we had numbers, you know, misshot at

471
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 4: the rim it's five on four the other way, he

472
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,959
Speaker 4: takes off and runs and then yeah we hit him

473
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 4: streaking down the middle of the floor and get fouled.

474
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, great play. So the trio of Turner, Grove and Shinholster.

475
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 5: My math is always is always kind of shaky as

476
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 5: everybody knows, all right, one point five rebounds, eight fouls,

477
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 5: only one turnover, but twenty one I think massive minutes, right,

478
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 5: I mean that play right there is that that's a

479
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 5: game changing place certainly gets the crowd going, Like so

480
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,480
Speaker 5: you might look at the boxer and go, well, they

481
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 5: kind of found some minutes for these guys, but you

482
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,360
Speaker 5: needed those minutes from all those guys and turners were

483
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 5: you know, I thought, like funny because he's just all

484
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,680
Speaker 5: over the place and you know, making himself known. But

485
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:56,920
Speaker 5: how big were those three guys that we're probably not

486
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 5: going to talk a ton about, but gave you good.

487
00:20:58,840 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 3: Spot minutes there.

488
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 4: Every single second you know, they were out there in

489
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 4: that game, and so that every play is big, every

490
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,639
Speaker 4: minute that those guys can be out there. And we

491
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 4: always talk about like sometimes it's not just winning, it's

492
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,560
Speaker 4: it's eliminating losing, you know what I mean? Sound, you know,

493
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 4: taking care of the ball, being sound defensively, finding a

494
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,520
Speaker 4: way to come up with the rebound, a great play,

495
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 4: and yeah, when Big Nemo checked in the game, a

496
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 4: lot happened. He had the one block, But I don't know,

497
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 4: I don't know if he's still fouling right, you know now,

498
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 4: but but but again, we needed those minutes.

499
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 5: When your nickname is Big Nemo, that's probably worth two

500
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,200
Speaker 5: fouls right there. You probably want to switch to the

501
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 5: nickname because the arrests are going Big nemos in get.

502
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 3: The whistle ready.

503
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 4: He really needs to continue to work on showing his

504
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 4: hands more because man, there's going to be a collision

505
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 4: in there, and a lot of times it just looks

506
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 4: like a foul.

507
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, tell us his story a little bit. Central Arkansas

508
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:50,119
Speaker 2: transfer finished that you're really strong for them. Last year,

509
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,360
Speaker 2: I think he had a thirty seven point game, maybe

510
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:53,680
Speaker 2: was in a conference tournament game.

511
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, its his story.

512
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, a young player just you know, continuing

513
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,959
Speaker 4: to grow and get into shape. I think I think

514
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 4: the defensive end has been more of a challenge for

515
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,399
Speaker 4: him than the offensive end, you know right now, but

516
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 4: you know, just really trying to trying to find his

517
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 4: way and he's got good hands, good instincts that way.

518
00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 4: I think it's just letting the games slow down for

519
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 4: him and getting an elite shape so he can you know,

520
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 4: play for longer periods.

521
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 3: Of time, you know, multiple actions, those kinds of things.

522
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:24,879
Speaker 4: But again, he's only a sophomore and he just played

523
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 4: at the end of last year, and so he's just

524
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 4: got to get like all these guys just got to

525
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:29,920
Speaker 4: continue to get better every day.

526
00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and as you mentioned with his body, when you

527
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 2: get into big ten play, his role might be going

528
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,479
Speaker 2: for four minutes and bang around and if you get

529
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:39,399
Speaker 2: four files, so what.

530
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, there might be some of that might even be

531
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 3: as early as Wednesday.

532
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 2: Right.

533
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 4: It's with a size and physicality that these teams, especially

534
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 4: being without Rob and you know some of these other guys.

535
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,640
Speaker 4: But but yeah, again, I would say when opportunity comes,

536
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 4: it's too late to prepare, and so you got to

537
00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:58,119
Speaker 4: keep preparing every day that you never know when your

538
00:22:58,160 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 4: number is going to get called, and when your number

539
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 4: it's called, you got to be ready.

540
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 3: To produce human nature being what it is.

541
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 5: How much does a win like last week help just

542
00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 5: the overall belief, Like you sat here a week ago

543
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,120
Speaker 5: and talked about all the things that needed to happen,

544
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 5: and some teams are going to buy in, some teams aren't.

545
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 5: But when they have that proof and that evidence, how

546
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 5: much does that help just moving forward?

547
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 3: I think it's big.

548
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,399
Speaker 4: I think it's big for the guys and I'm just

549
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 4: so happy for them, right for them to feel that,

550
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,399
Speaker 4: to put as much as they did into it and

551
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 4: go through the adversity that they did to have the

552
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 4: success and be out on the floor when the students

553
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 4: rush in the floorts.

554
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 3: That's awesome stuff.

555
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,879
Speaker 4: And I think hopefully it just continues to create buy in,

556
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:38,760
Speaker 4: you know, for what we're doing when we demand a

557
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 4: lot from them. Here's why you know it can it

558
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 4: can work if we stay with it. And so I

559
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 4: think it's massive and we got to continue to do

560
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:47,120
Speaker 4: that here.

561
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 2: And as you now formulate I know the plan and

562
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 2: moving forward with its still at least for a while

563
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,480
Speaker 2: a short bench. How do you how do you, you know,

564
00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,880
Speaker 2: as a coaching staff, discuss how you want to play

565
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,479
Speaker 2: and how do you try to keep guys fresh? I mean,

566
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,959
Speaker 2: do you change practice routine the do you guys use

567
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 2: the catapult system too? To know how how much mileage

568
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 2: your guys have on a particular week.

569
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 4: Man, there's no you know, there's no playbook for that.

570
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 4: I think some of it's a feel thing. Obviously, practices

571
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 4: are already different, just in the sense of we have

572
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 4: short on numbers, we can't really do five on five

573
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,479
Speaker 4: stuff live, so we've had to change that. You're right,

574
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 4: you have a lot of guys playing major, major minutes.

575
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 4: You still have to practice and get better. I think

576
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 4: it's just shorter periods of time trying to be creative

577
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 4: and how you do your your your drill work. You know,

578
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 4: maybe doing some things at a high tempo where you

579
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,640
Speaker 4: know guys aren't going to get hurt almost not five

580
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:45,160
Speaker 4: on zero, but you know pseudo, you know, dummy defense,

581
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,360
Speaker 4: you know, so to speak, and you know as you're

582
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 4: guarding to how do you just you just have to

583
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:50,800
Speaker 4: get really really creative.

584
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,640
Speaker 3: And but again you have to practice.

585
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 4: And like I said the other night, I mean, yeah,

586
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 4: we're shorthanded, so we can't commit silly foules, but we

587
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 4: definitely can't go out there these games say well, you

588
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 4: know what, guys like, we're short handed, so let's not

589
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,240
Speaker 4: try as hard right now. Let's just kind of coast

590
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 4: for a little bit and kind of get out of

591
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,119
Speaker 4: the way and then hope it works out. So you know,

592
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,479
Speaker 4: you've got to still play with physicality, and you've got

593
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,440
Speaker 4: to play hard, and you've got to do it with

594
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 4: eliminating silly files. And like the other night we did

595
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 4: get into file. We had a couple of legal screen

596
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 4: calls on that went our way. We had a couple

597
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 4: you know, Number six baited our bigs into two files

598
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,679
Speaker 4: by you know, kind of stopping and transition and allowing

599
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:27,720
Speaker 4: our big to run over. I hate that one and

600
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,879
Speaker 4: I hate those plays too, But but you know, so

601
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:32,920
Speaker 4: those things are still going to happen. But I know

602
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 4: I'm giving a long winded answer. But you know, every day,

603
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 4: like this morning, we go in and we put a

604
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,800
Speaker 4: lot of time into trying to prepare. All right, Wednesday,

605
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 4: one of the best offensive teams in the country. We've

606
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,199
Speaker 4: probably got about an hour and a half with these

607
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 4: guys on the court today. What's the you know, keep

608
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 4: the main thing, the main thing, what's going to happen

609
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,199
Speaker 4: the most in the games. That's where we spend our

610
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 4: practice time.

611
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,640
Speaker 2: And do you have or want to share any any

612
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,199
Speaker 2: new info injury wise with some of your guys right

613
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:58,920
Speaker 2: now or is it kind of same as it was

614
00:25:58,960 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 2: a week ago?

615
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 3: The same?

616
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 4: And obviously Chancey's out for the year. I mean some

617
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,639
Speaker 4: of these other guys, I mean, they just keep working

618
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:08,400
Speaker 4: to make progress. I don't anticipate we'll have anybody new

619
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 4: for Purdue, you know, it'll be the same thing and

620
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,760
Speaker 4: we'll just kind of keep plugging away here and hopefully

621
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:15,160
Speaker 4: at some point the news changes.

622
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 2: If you want to go five on five, what do

623
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 2: you have to use managers or how do you are

624
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:21,280
Speaker 2: you just simply not?

625
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can.

626
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 4: I mean you can put coaches out there. I mean

627
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,400
Speaker 4: it's just this kind of wonky rules a little bit.

628
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 4: But now I mean a lot of four on four,

629
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,959
Speaker 4: three on three. If we're going five on five, it's

630
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 4: just kind of more of like almost walk through scenarios,

631
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,359
Speaker 4: so to speak, and just is what it is, you know.

632
00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 13: What I mean.

633
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:40,439
Speaker 3: So you control what you can control.

634
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 5: Isaac Osama was seven rebounds, only two turnovers in thirty

635
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,239
Speaker 5: nine minutes and obviously lots on his shoulders too.

636
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 3: He was bringing the ball up a bunch.

637
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 5: But I just look at the rebounding numbers for him,

638
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 5: guy like Tyson, like it's really going to take everybody

639
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:53,160
Speaker 5: to go hit the glass. It's probably more than he's

640
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,680
Speaker 5: ever thought about rebounding in his whole life as a guard.

641
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 3: And he's good at it.

642
00:26:56,880 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 15: You know.

643
00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 4: It's one thing I saw right away, Like Isaac's got

644
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 4: a real nose for the he can go get it

645
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 4: on the offensive glass. He can you know, good nose

646
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,920
Speaker 4: on the defensive boards. I think, you know, I think

647
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 4: a lot of players will. I think Isaac as much

648
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:13,119
Speaker 4: as anyone, is going to really really grow through this

649
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:15,679
Speaker 4: this year, you know, having to play all these minutes

650
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 4: and be you know, put in that situation where a

651
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 4: lot's going to be demanded from him. He's a sophomore.

652
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,639
Speaker 4: I think he's got an unbelievably bright feature. And I

653
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,160
Speaker 4: thought these last couple of games, I thought he's really

654
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 4: stepped up, and I thought he was terrific against Indiana

655
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,719
Speaker 4: and so huge step forward for him. And he's got

656
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 4: to do all that he's gonna have to defend. I mean,

657
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,200
Speaker 4: you know, if you've watched Perdue play, I mean Braden Smith,

658
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 4: butcher Lherman, these guys are as good as there are

659
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 4: in the country. You're gonna have to rebound, You're gonna

660
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 4: have to run the show for thirty nine minutes. You're

661
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 4: gonna have to knock down big shots. You're gonna have

662
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,880
Speaker 4: to get the team organized. But it takes what it takes.

663
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 4: That's how you get better. And hitting some big shots, right,

664
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 4: there were some timely threes there. Dirkin had a couple, uh,

665
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 4: Crocker Johnson had won and Isaac had won in that

666
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:55,640
Speaker 4: second half.

667
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 2: I think it was what three threes in a in

668
00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 2: a pretty quick span that all of a sudden the

669
00:27:59,280 --> 00:27:59,880
Speaker 2: lead got.

670
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 3: To Yeah, it was.

671
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 4: It was fun and sometimes, man, we can make this

672
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 4: pretty complicated, but it's a lot easier game when shots

673
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 4: go in, right, Yeah, you know, it's just an easier game.

674
00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 4: And and some of that's the defense and kind of

675
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 4: what you're creating. But man, uh, those guys got open.

676
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 4: And yeah, that stretch right there where we knock those down,

677
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,000
Speaker 4: we're huge. And the three you said where you know,

678
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 4: Bobby Dirkin kind of read that little pin down out

679
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 4: of our motion and h Tucker kind of decided to

680
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 4: try to cheat up the middle and he read it

681
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 4: and we made a great read and he and he

682
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 4: and he nailed that three. Those are those are huge shots.

683
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 5: So that's just running motion, right, that's not Nico Medved

684
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 5: stopping everybody and calling the play.

685
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 15: Now.

686
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 3: That has to be like for a coach, exceedingly rewarding.

687
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, in that moment to see just everything you've worked

688
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 5: on since you've got here, Come, Come, into play in

689
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 5: that huge, huge spot.

690
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 4: It was again, that was just a read what our

691
00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 4: guys do, just playing out of our We call it

692
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 4: gold here and called it green at CSU. So took

693
00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 4: me a second, right now, this is gold right, very complicated,

694
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 4: very and there's a lot going on there and I

695
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 4: think a lot of times it takes a lot of

696
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 4: patience to kind of coach and teach the way we

697
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 4: want to because sometimes it can be messy. Early it's

698
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 4: sures you to just run set plays all the time,

699
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 4: but I think there's a lot bigger ceiling, you know

700
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 4: what I mean, And there's a lot of randomness and

701
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 4: guys too it so it takes time. So you're right,

702
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 4: like plays like that when guys can just create looks

703
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 4: for each other, you know, and finding guy's strengths, weaknesses,

704
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 4: you know what you do.

705
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:26,920
Speaker 3: That that was I agree, that was.

706
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 4: That was a cool moment there, and you know, for

707
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 4: Dirt to find that shot and set a great screen

708
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 4: and the guy read the screen the way that they did,

709
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 4: that was pretty cool.

710
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 2: You in your offense too, I've noticed you put a

711
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 2: lot on the bigs at the top. There's a there's

712
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 2: some decision making for them take us through kind of

713
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 2: the thinking behind that and why that has been working

714
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 2: for you, you.

715
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 3: Know, throughout the years.

716
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 4: I just again, it's kind of there's a lot of

717
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 4: we can talk about this for for hours or whatever,

718
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 4: pot but just the way the system I like to

719
00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 4: play is morphed through so many, you know, decades of

720
00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 4: coaching and learning and terminology that's kind of morphed into

721
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 4: into my own. But yeah, there's a lot of decision making,

722
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 4: you know, on the bigs, and you know, have to

723
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 4: know what actions to play to, how to get to it,

724
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 4: how to read it, you know, but everybody's involved. But yeah,

725
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 4: the bigs have to have to be able to make

726
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 4: decisions and you know, when to look at this action,

727
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 4: when to go Ohio for us Ohio's play the other way,

728
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 4: you know. And so you'll see and you'll see terminology

729
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 4: that we have and those are just teaching points, you know,

730
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 4: that that we that we have. And again, my job is,

731
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 4: I believe, is not to teach them what to do,

732
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 4: but try to teach them how to think. And that

733
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 4: just takes time. But boy, when it comes together, it's

734
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 4: pretty fun. All right, let's take another break.

735
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:39,120

00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,320

754
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 5: We're going to make you think outside of your sphere

755
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 5: a little bit.

756
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 3: That's a challenge. Yeah, I know how much time you

757
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 3: put into this too.

758
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 5: A ton of time, actually more than you think, more

759
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 5: than I probably should. But sometimes I ask you about

760
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 5: other sports, and specifically college sports.

761
00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 3: Where we're in bowl season.

762
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,280
Speaker 5: Now for football, playoff season for football, but also opt

763
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,800
Speaker 5: out season for football, and some players, as some teams

764
00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 5: have already announced, we're not going to play in this

765
00:31:58,440 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 5: bowl game, we're not going to play in that bowl game.

766
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 5: Have you ever been in a scenario where you've had

767
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,840
Speaker 5: to think about whether the Rams just missed the NCAA

768
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 5: tournament or do we play the n I t do

769
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 5: we do the CBI Take us into the coaches mindset

770
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 5: or your mindset of why you may or may not

771
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 5: want to do that.

772
00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 3: We You know, it's funny you say that one year.

773
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 4: It was actually the year just as we all unfortunately

774
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 4: can remember it, where COVID was just becoming a thin right,

775
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 4: We saw Rudy right, And it was just that year

776
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:28,240
Speaker 4: when everything ended up getting.

777
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:28,920
Speaker 3: Getting shut down.

778
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 4: We were kind of coming on and we became like

779
00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 4: a CBI kind of team, had an opportunity to play

780
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 4: in the postseason. We had some older guys and some

781
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 4: younger guys, and you know, we weren't gonna I thought

782
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:42,480
Speaker 4: we should play I thought they were going to, but

783
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 4: we were about ready to kind of have that discussion

784
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 4: and then boom, you know what I mean, So you

785
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 4: were almost there. Yeah, the decision obviously got made for us,

786
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 4: got made for for everybody, and so boy, that's a

787
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,160
Speaker 4: tough one. And I see kind of what's going on

788
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,080
Speaker 4: right now in the bowl season, and I don't have

789
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 4: a good answer. I'm sure every school in a different situation.

790
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 4: The times just continue to change. The calendar is really

791
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 4: a challenge, maybe with the school having a coaching change,

792
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 4: so on and so forth. But unfortunately, I don't think

793
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 4: this is something that's going to go away because I

794
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 4: just the way the calendar is, right, I mean, you

795
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 4: look at it in some schools may just say, you

796
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 4: know what, whether they think it's above them, maybe they

797
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 4: just want to move on with recruiting and start to

798
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 4: focus on next year, you know, retaining their players the

799
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,560
Speaker 4: portal opens or whatever they believe that's the most important

800
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 4: thing to them. I guess every school is going to

801
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 4: be in their own make their own decisions based on that.

802
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,760
Speaker 4: But again, I think this opt out thing is going

803
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 4: to be real unfortunately, and in basketball too, it's going

804
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 4: to be interesting to see like the Crown for US

805
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 4: just started last year. I do know that most of

806
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 4: the teams who played in that they really enjoyed it.

807
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 4: They thought it was well run. What happens with the

808
00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:56,040
Speaker 4: NIT here?

809
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:56,840
Speaker 3: Sure?

810
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:58,800
Speaker 4: Is the n T really going to be It's not

811
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 4: the same as it used to be. Is there going

812
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,959
Speaker 4: to be a school that just misses out? Maybe they

813
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 4: want to go in the Crown, but maybe they look

814
00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 4: at their roster and they say, boy, you.

815
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 3: Know this doesn't behoove us. We got to wait a

816
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 3: couple more weeks now.

817
00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 4: In our particular case, the portal window I believe is

818
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,439
Speaker 4: not going to open until after the Final four, which

819
00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 4: is great, right, I think that's good. But again, it's

820
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,360
Speaker 4: maybe good for four teams. Is that good for do

821
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:25,840
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying it's good for everybody?

822
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:27,880
Speaker 3: Else? Is maybe the season's been over for a month.

823
00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 4: So I think a lot long winded answer as the

824
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 4: rules keep evolving with this, with transfer windows, coaching changes,

825
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 4: the way the postseason postseason has just completely changed in

826
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:41,000
Speaker 4: football now, this is a new thing. It's honestly in

827
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 4: a lot of ways has changed in basketball too. So

828
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 4: I do think there will be some opt outs, But

829
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 4: I'm still kind of old fashioned that way. And my

830
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:50,520
Speaker 4: thing is like, man, you only get to do this once,

831
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,360
Speaker 4: you get to play. Let's go play, right, You know

832
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:57,320
Speaker 4: that That's my mindset, and so I hope that's what

833
00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 4: we evolve to and that more schools are going to

834
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:00,719
Speaker 4: look at, hey, we need to go play.

835
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:02,799
Speaker 5: By the way, it's the second time today you said

836
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,279
Speaker 5: long winded answer. That's fine. We want yeah, we want

837
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 5: long winded answer. Right Yet, Grim and I talk enough, especially.

838
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 3: To each other. It's the Nico medved Show. So we're good.

839
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 3: Let's do it. Answers. Yeah, it's great. All right, good,

840
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:15,960
Speaker 3: that's topic one.

841
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:17,320
Speaker 5: The other thing I'm gonna try to do is we

842
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,399
Speaker 5: go because you've talked a lot about your time here

843
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 5: as a manager, going back to the nineties and just

844
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 5: the legendary time for the Big Ten. As we go

845
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:26,800
Speaker 5: up to different opponents, I'm gonna ask you for like

846
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:29,759
Speaker 5: a story about their coach or their team from what

847
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,840
Speaker 5: you remember. And obviously Purdue if you're old enough to remember,

848
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 5: Geen Katie used to be the coach there. I remember

849
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:37,680
Speaker 5: started covering basketball his last year and the Gophers beat

850
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:39,319
Speaker 5: him pretty good here at the Barn and he said,

851
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 5: came up to the media room and said, well, if

852
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 5: all of them were like this thirty years ago, I

853
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 5: would have sold insurance back then. I would not be coaching.

854
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 5: But that's a character right there. Geen, Katie, I have

855
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,279
Speaker 5: to imagine you have a Katie story or two.

856
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:51,839
Speaker 3: From your time.

857
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:57,400
Speaker 4: Gene would never remember this, but I do. I remember

858
00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:00,840
Speaker 4: Purdue was coming to play here, and I think Lenn Robinson,

859
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 4: you know whatever, and the big dog.

860
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:06,280
Speaker 3: Big dog for the kids, and I find Robinson the third.

861
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 4: Correct, the big dog, and the second yeah, second, yeah,

862
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,720
Speaker 4: And I remember their their flight or their charter was delayed.

863
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:16,560
Speaker 4: There was snow and they couldn't get in, so they

864
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,320
Speaker 4: had a practice time at Williams Arena, but they couldn't

865
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 4: make it to the practice time. I can't remember if

866
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,279
Speaker 4: the women had a gamer back and there. It was

867
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:25,320
Speaker 4: maybe volleyball or something was going to go on in

868
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 4: the barn, so they got in late that night. Well,

869
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:29,800
Speaker 4: I had to go up there and open up the

870
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,400
Speaker 4: gym for him, and they got in late. And at

871
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:34,759
Speaker 4: that point in time, it's the old Beerman which is

872
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 4: now that gym I believe is volleyball's practice facility or what. Yeah, wrestling.

873
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:43,879
Speaker 4: I've kind of looked it's all changed. And so that's

874
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 4: where they had to practice, and I remember they showed

875
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,040
Speaker 4: up and they didn't even check in the hotel. They

876
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 4: came over there and they hadn't even watched film, and

877
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 4: so the assistant coaches took their team wherever to watch film.

878
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:55,839
Speaker 4: And it was just me and Jean on the court

879
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 4: and I played horse with Gen Katie true story. I

880
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:00,960
Speaker 4: don't even he's remembered. You ask me if I won,

881
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 4: and I don't. Here's what I'm gonna go. Yeah, here's

882
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 4: what I'm gonna go with. I'm gonna say because I

883
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 4: could shoot you know station, I'm gonna say that I

884
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,640
Speaker 4: had the lead. It was like I don't want to

885
00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 4: say I had maybe H and he had like R.

886
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 4: And then the team came out. So I was gonna

887
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 4: was gonna kind of like the Hopkins game the other night,

888
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 4: like Tartan had him on the ropes. Then they called

889
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:25,719
Speaker 4: the game. Yeah, that's an awfair conversation. I need to

890
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:28,080
Speaker 4: know what happened there. My first fall up is whose

891
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 4: idea was it to play horse? Like I can't imagine

892
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:32,719
Speaker 4: you young Nico going, hey, Gene, you want to play horse.

893
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 4: I don't even remember. Gene was such a character, and

894
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 4: I see him and Clem were close. Sure they were together,

895
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,600
Speaker 4: and so I don't know. He was out there just

896
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:42,160
Speaker 4: screwing around and talking to me and I'm shooting, and

897
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:44,399
Speaker 4: then yeah, we just ended up kind of like having

898
00:37:44,440 --> 00:37:46,920
Speaker 4: a little bit of fun or whatever. That way, funny

899
00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 4: story you asked that, but I remember that. And then

900
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:50,360
Speaker 4: I don't even think we finished the game because the

901
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:51,359
Speaker 4: team ended up coming out.

902
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 3: But I'll stick with I was gonna win, Yeah, for sure.

903
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 5: Do you think you would have had it in you

904
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:57,120
Speaker 5: to knock out Gen, Katie and the old Beerman court

905
00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 5: like or are you like.

906
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:02,359
Speaker 3: I would have taken pride? Yeah? Absolutely, because even talked

907
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:06,160
Speaker 3: a little trash. Yeah, what happened the next day? Did

908
00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 3: the Gophers beat Glenn Robinson?

909
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 4: Gosh, now, it's so funny you say that, because I

910
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 4: was actually as I was answering the question, I don't

911
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 4: remember if if we beat them or not.

912
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 3: I think we did, but gosh, what look at those

913
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 3: days like that? That that way? How good?

914
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 4: The Big Ten was legendary players and people who were there.

915
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 4: But I'm gonna go with I think we beat those guys. Yeah,

916
00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:32,880
Speaker 4: and you mentioned uh, Geen, Katie and Clem Haskins.

917
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 2: I think Clem was Jean's assistant right Western Kentucky, and

918
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 2: then when Jean took the Purdue job, then Clem became

919
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 2: the head coach at Western.

920
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 3: Absolutely. Yeah.

921
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 4: And like Matt now you know who I know, and

922
00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:46,759
Speaker 4: friends with todever he played on those I mean, it's

923
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 4: just it's funny to see just how things come full circle.

924
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 4: I definitely wouldn't wanted to play Matt and Horse No, yeah, yeah, no,

925
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 4: how old Red Gina been there probably fifty yeah, yeah,

926
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,320
Speaker 4: something like that. I forgot too in the game the

927
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:03,120
Speaker 4: other night. Robbi Hummel had the game, and I forgot that.

928
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 4: He actually tore his a c L at Williams Arena.

929
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:07,759
Speaker 3: I was there. It was, you know what I mean,

930
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,480
Speaker 3: he hit me and I remembered that too. It was

931
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:11,960
Speaker 3: actually in the barn. Yeah.

932
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:16,759
Speaker 2: Really for him not to take this totally sidebar, it's

933
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 2: a long contested to.

934
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 13: I'm just.

935
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 3: His second a c L.

936
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,040
Speaker 2: Robbie second a c L was while they were they

937
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,640
Speaker 2: were they were having an open practice while the Gopher

938
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:30,759
Speaker 2: football team was playing at Purdue, and you know how

939
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,200
Speaker 2: teams wire through the like you guys had that where

940
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,080
Speaker 2: it's an open practice. So he his first injury was

941
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:38,239
Speaker 2: here at the Barn and his second injury was a

942
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,920
Speaker 2: scrimmage before the Gopher Purdue game there.

943
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 3: So just to you know, both knees the credit to him.

944
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,240
Speaker 5: He still says he has high reverence from Minnesota.

945
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 3: And the Barn. He's got his family, have a cabin

946
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 3: here or something. Everything has a.

947
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:55,239
Speaker 6: Cabin here, still has a cabin, Ye of your the

948
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,399
Speaker 6: Stanford women's coach has a cabin. Everybody loves Minnesota. Let's

949
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:00,880
Speaker 6: just call it one, no doubt. Yeah, but that's my

950
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 6: gene Katie story. See, that's what we're gonna we're gonna do.

951
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 6: That's great.

952
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 2: You better start racking your brain Bob Knight's story exactly.

953
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 2: You have nothing else to do all year. But just

954
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:11,080
Speaker 2: know that when we're coming up on Big ten play

955
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:14,239
Speaker 2: Toy Davis, think about that. Lou Henson, I've thought about it.

956
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,520
Speaker 2: That's why we're gonna do it. You're a genie, Fab five,

957
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:19,200
Speaker 2: the whole deal. Yeah, I mean, that's all Fab five.

958
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 2: I can't wait for it. But that's the era I

959
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:23,879
Speaker 2: grew up in too. So it's very self serving because

960
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,640
Speaker 2: that's when I was at every game. Section one, fifteen,

961
00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:29,360
Speaker 2: row seventeen, seats one through four right on the aisle.

962
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,640
Speaker 2: It was the greatest. Like, now, how close were those

963
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 2: to the Medved family seats? I think they were on

964
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:37,319
Speaker 2: the opposite opposite end. Guard had better seats. He was like, yeah,

965
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:40,320
Speaker 2: I mean he was the DYNA guy, right whatever, Like

966
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,840
Speaker 2: he's the access to the clubroom, easy access.

967
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 11: There we go.

968
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 14: Is that it?

969
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:46,520
Speaker 3: All right? That was great?

970
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 2: How about a round of applause for the long contested

971
00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:52,359

1024
00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:38,440
Speaker 2: knock off a number one team Wednesday night. You can

1025
00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:39,440
Speaker 2: see why they're number one.

1026
00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:41,560
Speaker 4: I know they had a hiccup the other night at

1027
00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:45,160
Speaker 4: home to Iowa State, But boy, you watch the film

1028
00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:47,359
Speaker 4: here and you know you just start with I mean Matt.

1029
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 4: I consider Mad a friend, but I think he's one

1030
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 4: of the best coaches in the country.

1031
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:53,720
Speaker 3: They have an unbelievable program.

1032
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,720
Speaker 4: They've got all these guys returning, They've got a great culture.

1033
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:01,000
Speaker 4: You know, Braden Smith, the Big Ten Player, preseason Player

1034
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:04,719
Speaker 4: of the Year. They are a machine on offense. They've

1035
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 4: got obviously one of the best home courts in college basketball. Yeah,

1036
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:10,640
Speaker 4: we've got our hands. We've got our hands full in

1037
00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:12,920
Speaker 4: that game. But that's the Big Ten. They're you know,

1038
00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:16,080
Speaker 4: number one for a reason. And my senses is though,

1039
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:19,480
Speaker 4: they will probably have a more spirited effort against the

1040
00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:22,280
Speaker 4: Gophers Wednesday after what happened to them on Saturday.

1041
00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean every game gets produced tough, obviously, but

1042
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 5: when you see that as a coach, do you do

1043
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:26,759
Speaker 5: it all of us too?

1044
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:28,960
Speaker 3: And go, oh man? The practice is going to be

1045
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:30,640
Speaker 3: something for the boiler Makers. I would imagine.

1046
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:32,120
Speaker 5: I didn't see much of the game, but obviously they

1047
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,320
Speaker 5: can't be thrilled that that was their last performance.

1048
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:37,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know, it goes back to what I said.

1049
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:39,279
Speaker 4: I mean, we're all humans, right, you look at oh boy,

1050
00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:43,600
Speaker 4: you know, but listen, you can't control that you know

1051
00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:46,080
Speaker 4: what I mean, you have no control over what the

1052
00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,480
Speaker 4: other team's approach is. The only thing you can do

1053
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:50,920
Speaker 4: is control your team's approach. So listen, I don't care

1054
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:52,680
Speaker 4: what it is. You're going on the road to Purdue

1055
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 4: Big Ten games.

1056
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,640
Speaker 3: It's gonna be tough, right for anybody. So it is

1057
00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:59,400
Speaker 3: what it is. But you know, we've got to go

1058
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 3: it on there and the same thing.

1059
00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:02,440
Speaker 4: Figure out, here's some things that we need to do

1060
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:04,400
Speaker 4: to show up, and you just try to, you know,

1061
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:07,040
Speaker 4: win possessions right, just over and over again and see

1062
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:08,600
Speaker 4: if you can find yourself in a ball game.

1063
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 2: What makes Braden Smith so good? As you mentioned preseason

1064
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:12,960
Speaker 2: player of the year? I think was he player of

1065
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 2: the Year last year or too at the end of

1066
00:45:14,719 --> 00:45:17,520
Speaker 2: the year. And he's got he's got those guys you know,

1067
00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:18,240
Speaker 2: near the top.

1068
00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 3: Of the heap.

1069
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:21,279
Speaker 4: Gosh, you know, just you know, watch him last year

1070
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:23,439
Speaker 4: and then watching him more right now. I mean, he's

1071
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:27,080
Speaker 4: obviously got elite feel and instincts. I mean, he plays

1072
00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:30,920
Speaker 4: with a pace and a poise. He's an incredible passer.

1073
00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:33,759
Speaker 4: I mean he just throws strikes, I mean behind the

1074
00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:37,919
Speaker 4: back in transition, hitting the pocket pass, you know, hitting

1075
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,680
Speaker 4: the pole pass in the corner, the right hand, left hand.

1076
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,799
Speaker 4: He's a lot more explosive and athletic than you think.

1077
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 4: He can shoot threes off the dribble. He's just a

1078
00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:50,400
Speaker 4: consummate point guard and playmaker. And you get two on

1079
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:52,759
Speaker 4: the ball, he finds the open guy and he's just

1080
00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:56,239
Speaker 4: it's kind of a throwback that way, you know, real

1081
00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:57,080
Speaker 4: real point guard.

1082
00:45:57,160 --> 00:45:58,880
Speaker 3: But you know he can score when he needs to to.

1083
00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:02,080
Speaker 4: And again you watch them, he is an impressive player

1084
00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:03,680
Speaker 4: and he's the one that makes that thing go.

1085
00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:07,440
Speaker 5: Is there a template for how to be successful on

1086
00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:11,000
Speaker 5: the road, regardless of opponent that you found successful over

1087
00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:11,719
Speaker 5: the years, You.

1088
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,440
Speaker 4: Know, I'm always one like listen, you know there's a

1089
00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:17,000
Speaker 4: reason why, you know, home court is so big in

1090
00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:19,440
Speaker 4: college basketball. But at the same point in time, I

1091
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 4: think we can focus way too much on well, we're

1092
00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 4: on the roads. Now, we got play different, you know

1093
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:27,360
Speaker 4: what I mean? The same whether wherever you're playing home, road, neutral,

1094
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:31,520
Speaker 4: the same things are required to be successful. You just

1095
00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:33,719
Speaker 4: have to I think I think it's the emotional piece

1096
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:35,479
Speaker 4: of it, right. You got to understand when the crowd

1097
00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 4: gets on you, they're on a run or whatever. How

1098
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 4: can you lose that and just stay in the moment

1099
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,360
Speaker 4: and focus on the things that you need to decision making.

1100
00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:45,640
Speaker 4: You know, when do you push? You know, when do

1101
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:47,920
Speaker 4: you take chances? You got to be aggressive, But at

1102
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:49,960
Speaker 4: the same point in time, you know understanding how to

1103
00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:53,560
Speaker 4: mitigate runs, you know, sure, and sometimes what happens to

1104
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:55,359
Speaker 4: guys that you can kind of teams, you can kind

1105
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,279
Speaker 4: of lose your mind. You start getting out of your

1106
00:46:57,840 --> 00:46:59,600
Speaker 4: you know, very easy. You try to maybe hit your

1107
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:01,239
Speaker 4: other teams on a run. You try to hit a

1108
00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:04,320
Speaker 4: grand slam, yep, instead of just continuing to hit singles

1109
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:06,359
Speaker 4: and do the right things and stay in the game

1110
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:09,560
Speaker 4: and hang in there, because inevitably, I think basketball is

1111
00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 4: a game of runs. So you've got to be unbelievably

1112
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:14,480
Speaker 4: tough minded. You know, you've got to be played together,

1113
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:16,359
Speaker 4: and a lot of times, man on the road, it's

1114
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,600
Speaker 4: just it's hitting those big shots or making a big

1115
00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:22,840
Speaker 4: play that just kind of stems the momentum right for

1116
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:23,560
Speaker 4: the home team.

1117
00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:24,800
Speaker 3: And that's what you have to do.

1118
00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:28,400
Speaker 2: Your previous road test this year true road game was

1119
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:31,080
Speaker 2: was down at Missouri and you guys were hanging in

1120
00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:33,239
Speaker 2: that leading the game early in the second half. Then

1121
00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:35,640
Speaker 2: they had that one stretch, right, Yeah, so what do

1122
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,040
Speaker 2: you take, if anything? Can you use that as a

1123
00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:40,800
Speaker 2: data point and a learning experience heading into macki Arena?

1124
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:41,359
Speaker 3: I hope.

1125
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:43,279
Speaker 4: So I think, you know, we won't go back to

1126
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 4: the Missouri game and talk about it, but I think

1127
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:48,320
Speaker 4: that now we've we've played you know, road neutral, and

1128
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:51,400
Speaker 4: you know, hopefully you're in that situation again again. It's

1129
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:54,800
Speaker 4: just it's helping the guys understand how small the margins

1130
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:57,600
Speaker 4: are and how everything matters. You know, you're in a

1131
00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:02,680
Speaker 4: close game and you're guarding Fletcher Lawyer coming off a screen.

1132
00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:05,239
Speaker 4: You can't all of a sudden just decide in that

1133
00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:07,920
Speaker 4: moment that, well, now I'm just going to kind of

1134
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,279
Speaker 4: cheat and go up the middle, you know what I mean,

1135
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:13,520
Speaker 4: and give them the open three because inevitably that goes down,

1136
00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:16,040
Speaker 4: you know, and probably that maybe even happen to eye

1137
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:17,279
Speaker 4: you here a little bit right.

1138
00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:21,000
Speaker 3: Way, he can't well he's going to hit it.

1139
00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:24,040
Speaker 4: But I think it's just it's those things, you know,

1140
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:26,319
Speaker 4: and sometimes you got to realize too, like you play

1141
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 4: really good defense to do it right.

1142
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:29,880
Speaker 3: These are great players. They make tough shots.

1143
00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:32,640
Speaker 4: But then just because they make tough shots, you can't

1144
00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:34,920
Speaker 4: cave in and all of a sudden lose you know,

1145
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:36,719
Speaker 4: the things you have to do over and over and

1146
00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:39,120
Speaker 4: over again for long periods of time. So hopefully those

1147
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:41,560
Speaker 4: are the things that we're learning and we're growing that way,

1148
00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:44,480
Speaker 4: and just keep staying with the process that works.

1149
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:46,759
Speaker 3: All right, Well, very good, Good luck on Wednesday night.

1152
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:51,800
Speaker 4: It's a it's a great home court, maybe one of

1153
00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:53,040
Speaker 4: the best in college basketball.

1154
