So how was the steak dinner on 25 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 1: Saturday night? 26 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 4: Everything you said held true. I stuck with my process. 27 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 4: I did not worry about anything else until Sunday. So 28 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 4: the family was great, friends were great, and the steak 29 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 4: was great. 30 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 3: Nice. Yeah, it was your a bon in fil a. 31 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 3: Nothing wrong. 32 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,479 Speaker 4: I got to give Tim Murray and Murray's credit going 33 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 4: down there. 34 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 3: They did a great job. Yeah, there's not much better 35 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 3: than that, that's for sure. Keep going with the sake. 36 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 3: I know you got more questions. No No. 37 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 2: Grim has said before he's convinced he can cook a 38 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 2: steak better than most restaurants, and there's different cuts that 39 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 2: his specialty. 40 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 3: He probably can. I think I can do. 41 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,639 Speaker 4: One thing that's awesome is like I'm a medium rare person, 42 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 4: no question. And my girls, you know, my daughter Ally 43 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 4: turned on nine yesterday, but there's six and eight. They 44 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 4: love steak and when they order steak, they wanted medium 45 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 4: rare and they have to tell them too, not kids. 46 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 3: Medium rare like adult real medium rare. Like that's how 47 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 3: they like it. Yes, I mean, if you're going, well done, 48 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 3: you mind we'll skip the steak and get a hamburg. 49 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 3: That's my point, you know what I mean. 50 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 4: And so people would do that, and I get a 51 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 4: lot of guys that players that come into the program 52 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 4: and they, oh, I want it well done or medium well. 53 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 3: And I'm like, by the time you leave. 54 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 4: This program, you're gonna learn, You're gonna learn, you'll have 55 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,839 Speaker 4: learned some sort of life lesson programs in life. 56 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 3: Absolutely, and we are. 57 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, that is outstanding. A good way to spend a 58 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: Saturday night. And what a game man shot making on 59 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: both teams, I mean, what an entertaining game. I'm sure 60 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 1: there were times where you weren't as entertained as maybe 61 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 1: the fans were, just in regard to nervous. 62 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 3: About the outcome. 63 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 1: But seven of the last nine shots the Golden Golfers 64 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: hit and made winning plays down the stretch. 65 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, we did an unbelievable job on that end of 66 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 3: the floor. 67 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,799 Speaker 4: You know, twenty four assists, three turnovers, just phenomenal. The 68 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 4: ball movement, the shot making, the patients when we needed 69 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 4: to guys even in transition if they had good looks, 70 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 4: just playing in a terrific rhythm that way. And yeah, 71 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 4: it was hard. We looked up at one point. What 72 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 4: we were seven for nine or seven for eight from 73 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 4: three to start the game, and we're like tied, yeah 74 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,639 Speaker 4: to the one point foll teams nice team to start. 75 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 4: Bill Oh is an incredible player. Obviously, they found some 76 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 4: holes to in our zone, which can make it make 77 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 4: it difficult, but give them a lot of credit, give 78 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 4: our guys a lot of credit. And yeah, down the stretch, 79 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 4: we just made some some huge plays and we had to. 80 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 3: You know, I asked you this in the post game, 81 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,679 Speaker 3: but I think it's one. 82 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: Not everyone listens all the time, but too, I think 83 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: it's It fascinates me because I've watched basketball forever and 84 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,839 Speaker 1: when coaches, a lot of coaches won't play zone at all. 85 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 1: You guys are playing zone some out of necessity, but 86 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: it's become a nice lot out of necessity, but a 87 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: nice weapon. But two, whenever coaches who don't play zone 88 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: a lot play zone the second the other team hits 89 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: a three, that's it most of the time for the 90 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: rest of the night. And I asked you in the 91 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: post game, how hard was it as their draining threes 92 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: to say we're going to stick with the game plan 93 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: because we think this will give us the best chance 94 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: to win as they're draining threes on that zone. 95 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 3: Brutal I did. 96 00:03:57,840 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 4: I said to our staff literally before we went out 97 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 4: there on the court, I'm like, you know, guys, I'm like, man, 98 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 4: if they're making a bunch of shots early, as hard 99 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 4: as it is, we just we can't pan it. Because 100 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 4: I really didn't like in that particular game. I didn't 101 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 4: like playing b of guarding Donovan Den and middle ball 102 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 4: screens with Grayson with stuff like that. Yeah, I didn't 103 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 4: need to see any more of that, and so I 104 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 4: just thought that, you know, we had to. I thought 105 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 4: we did a pretty good job of making some adjustments 106 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 4: a little bit towards the end of the first half 107 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 4: and in the second half a little bit of how 108 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 4: we guarded their scheme. I thought they did a really 109 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 4: good job, but we could have been better than too. 110 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 4: And sometimes I think, even though we're playing so most 111 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 4: of the time, there's going to be some situations where 112 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 4: we'll still have to play man man. We went man 113 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 4: to man once key out of a timeout based on 114 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 4: out of bound situation. 115 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 3: I think, so we have done it at key times. 116 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 3: So how do you navigate that patience? 117 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 2: That's kind of where I wanted to go grin because 118 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 2: it is a lot by necessity, you're playing something you 119 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 2: probably didn't think you were going to play when you 120 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 2: lined them up in June and said, all right, what 121 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 2: are the gofers going to look like? So is that 122 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 2: reminder almost to yourself in a way that even if 123 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,039 Speaker 2: they start hitting shots, we can't just start flipping things 124 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 2: and get away from what we want to do. 125 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I mean, I think the one thing the 126 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 4: injuries do again, they take a lot of decisions away 127 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 4: from you. Right, You don't have to overthink it. It 128 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 4: kind of is what it is. It's not Hey, that's 129 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 4: in that particular game. It wasn't planned. B It's like, 130 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 4: we better get better at plan A, you know, somehow 131 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 4: to do it. So those things are are tricky because 132 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,479 Speaker 4: I think sometimes making some of those subtle adjustments you 133 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 4: have to do. 134 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 3: Within a game. 135 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 4: But again we talk about out a necessity. Some of 136 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,479 Speaker 4: it's just lack of depth and so we're kind of 137 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 4: forced to do that. 138 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 2: What have you seen from Bobby Dirkin here in the 139 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 2: last handful of games? 140 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 5: Man? 141 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 4: I told you before, I just I'd love to whatever 142 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 4: he was feeling Saturday afternoon, I'd love to feel that 143 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:47,799 Speaker 4: once in different than no, it doesn't make you feel 144 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 4: like that. Man, he is just playing out with an 145 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 4: incredible confidence, and I'm so happy for him. He's just 146 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 4: an unbelievable young man. He's such a hard worker. He 147 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 4: cares so much. You know, I think early in the 148 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 4: year he'd be the first to tell you. I mean, 149 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 4: he was struggling a little bit with his confidence, almost 150 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 4: putting too much pressure on himself. You remember it back 151 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 4: some of those games, It's like it felt like he 152 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 4: couldn't get one to go down, but he stayed with it. 153 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 4: He's kept working and now he's just playing at such 154 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 4: a high level and you just look at it in 155 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 4: his body language. 156 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 3: He missed a. 157 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 4: Shot, doesn't worry about it. It's ready to shoot the next one. 158 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,479 Speaker 4: And now he's in that situation where he just feels 159 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 4: like every time it leaves his hands, he feels like 160 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 4: it's going in. And that's a really cool thing to 161 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 4: be in as a player. But he just deserves all 162 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 4: the credit he's getting because he's a great young man 163 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:34,840 Speaker 4: and he's just worked so hard. 164 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 2: Not only can you see it from him, I feel 165 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 2: like you can see it from his teammates too. And 166 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,799 Speaker 2: we talked about that with Kate. I think from the jump. 167 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 2: Where was it the North Dakota game, North Kota State 168 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 2: game where all of a sudden he had a couple 169 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 2: go and then people were just finding him. 170 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 3: Bobby's got a little bit of. 171 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 2: That now from his teammates, which I imagine helps his confidence dramatically. 172 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 3: I think it does. 173 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 4: And I think he does such a great job of 174 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 4: moving without the ball too. And we've definitely created on 175 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 4: our team just an unselfishness, a willingness to move the ball, 176 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 4: to play with each other, to turn down good shot 177 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 4: for great shot. And so when you're playing with other 178 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 4: guys too, who you just feel that from that makes 179 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 4: your job a lot easier. But yeah, and he's said 180 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 4: he's such an easy guy. 181 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 3: To pull for. 182 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 4: His teammates love him. Every time he has success. Those 183 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 4: guys are thrilled for him. 184 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 3: How has he handled his folk hero status of chances? 185 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 4: I'm a little or concerned about him. He's kind of 186 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 4: get a big head Bobby coming in here. You know 187 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 4: who knows today like Bobby is to. 188 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 2: Go full third person, full name yet coach. 189 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 3: I'm sitting out today. 190 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 4: I'm not ready to go so he's out some prima 191 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 4: donna and I'm without question, no I joke. I mean, 192 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 4: it's just the same guy every day. I mean, it 193 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 4: doesn't matter. I'm not worried at all about coming out 194 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 4: there today and seeing if he's ready to go. 195 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: Bobby Buckets, as the student section likes to call him, 196 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: over a thousand points. Now he went over on that 197 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: third three that he hit, uh seven threes in the game. 198 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: I think the other thing just watching him is that 199 00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 1: he now is feeling so good. He's kind of hunting threes, right, 200 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 1: I mean, not that he I mean I think there 201 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: were times early in the year where he maybe deferred us. 202 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 3: You know, he's coming off of a screen. 203 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: And it was kind of open, and he'd say, okay, 204 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: we're now it's like if it's kind of open, it's 205 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: going up, which is good when you got a guy 206 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 1: that can shoot that way. 207 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know, we gotta be shot ready. 208 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 4: We talked about that with our guys and he definitely 209 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 4: is so. And tell you what, he made seven threes 210 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 4: and no one was bigger than number seven, right, you 211 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 4: know seven? That number seven was just a massive possession 212 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 4: and a massive shot in a huge game. 213 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 3: Talk about the shot making. You hit seven of the 214 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 3: last nine. 215 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: As we mentioned, there were two baseline jumpers in front 216 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: of the bench. One that Langston hit he was kind 217 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: of pinned in and the shot clock's winding down and 218 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: he hits all ned and then Tyson hit a baseline 219 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,439 Speaker 1: jumper from maybe a few feet behind that. Both those 220 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 1: probably you know one obviously it helps you win the game. 221 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 1: But man, what clutch shots those both were. 222 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 3: Yeah. 223 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 4: I mean at the end of the day, when you 224 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 4: when you do this, you realize that, you know, to 225 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 4: win these games, you got to make plays. 226 00:08:58,280 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 3: On both ends. You got to find a way to 227 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 3: make a winning playing. 228 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 4: Sometimes it's just stepping up and making a huge shot, 229 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 4: you know, knocking the ball loose, getting a key rebound 230 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 4: and Liz a high level game. Yeah, both teams were making. 231 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 4: You go back and watch the film yesterday and it's like, 232 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,839 Speaker 4: holy Kyle, Like it didn't feel like either team was 233 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 4: going to miss, and even if they had an inch, 234 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 4: you know, they were knocking it down. But we just 235 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,199 Speaker 4: made a few more shots than they did. I thought 236 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 4: our guys down the stretch in the last four minutes 237 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 4: found a way to get the stops and needed too 238 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 4: as well. 239 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 1: And Tyson and Rendols both over twenty as well. You 240 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 1: get three guys, now four guys score. 241 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 3: That was it. That's an incredible stab. Man. 242 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 4: I didn't realize after the game only have four guys 243 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 4: score in the game. 244 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 3: I don't That's one I don't know that I've seen. 245 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: I don't know if I've seen that either a year 246 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 1: of first that way, if you score seventy eight and 247 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,439 Speaker 1: you only have four guys score, you're likely going to 248 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:49,839 Speaker 1: have three that score over twenty. 249 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 4: And that's what kind of the way the math works. Yeah, 250 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 4: you know what I mean. Typically, Yeah, it was. It 251 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 4: was a heck of a game. 252 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 1: After the game, I you talked about the adjustment you 253 00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,719 Speaker 1: had to make in the zone, going back to that 254 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: zone situation, that maybe they were doing some things against 255 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 1: the zone that they hadn't shown before you made adjustments. 256 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 1: Mitt Cronin in his comments after the game said that 257 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: that adjustment, you know, frustrated them a little bit, and 258 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 1: he was trying to get his guys to do some 259 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 1: stuff and that you guys almost matched up man to 260 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 1: man at points it looked like, and there was confusing 261 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:19,839 Speaker 1: them a little bit. 262 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 3: So what adjustments? Yeah, maybe maybe you don't want to 263 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 3: give away how you how you're getting this. 264 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 4: Darren Degrees might be listening, Yeah, exactly, Yeah, Bath or whatever. No, 265 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 4: I mean I think, you know, there's probably a little 266 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 4: bit of truth in that. Sometimes it's just you know, 267 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 4: the percentage just started working in our favor. But you know, 268 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 4: when you're tuninges done, you're kind of trying to figure out, 269 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 4: you know, different alignments, different things that they're trying to do, 270 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 4: Maybe how you can kind of move some people around 271 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,679 Speaker 4: and anticipate things a little bit better. And yeah, I 272 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:46,959 Speaker 4: thought that had a really good plan. It was a 273 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 4: little bit different than what we had kind of prepared 274 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 4: for what they did earlier. So I thought they had 275 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,319 Speaker 4: a just kind of took us a little while to 276 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 4: get going and then it listened. Sometimes, no matter what 277 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 4: defense you're in, when they got guys that are you know, 278 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 4: making it from the Cambria logo, you know, it looks 279 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 4: like it's not gonna you know, hit nothing but net 280 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 4: sometimes there's not a lot of plan for that. 281 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 3: You mentioned Dent too, you guys faced him. He was 282 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 3: on New Mexico. 283 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 1: For three years while you were at Colorado State, and 284 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: you know, obviously a fabulous player. 285 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 3: Now you see him here in the big ten. 286 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: He held him to Now he had fifteen assists, so 287 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: he was distributing and they were making a bunch of 288 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 1: shots too. But he held him to three points. And 289 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: then Perry goes scoreless for them. So you figure they're 290 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: what one in two guys in terms of the guard, 291 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: the point and the shooting guard. I know they run 292 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 1: three guards kind of, but that's that's you're gonna hold 293 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:32,560 Speaker 1: those guys combined for three. 294 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 3: That gives you a shot too too. And they Dent 295 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:35,079 Speaker 3: did a great job. 296 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 4: I mean, you know, he finds guys in the zone 297 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 4: two and again they made shots, which is why he 298 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 4: saw his assist numbers are so high. The one thing 299 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 4: the zone did do is it didn't allow him to 300 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 4: operate in ball screens, and that's what he does at 301 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 4: such a high level. But yeah, I mean again, they 302 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 4: you know, they they both teams played really well offensively, 303 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 4: so but I thought, you know, we took Debt Dent 304 00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 4: out of the ball screen situations and that was critical. 305 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 2: Speaking of distributors, too soon to call Grayson Grove a 306 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 2: point forward now or a point seven after seven assists. 307 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 3: On Saturday, unreal. 308 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 4: I didn't see it, you know, until after the game 309 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 4: when I looked at the stats and I said, after 310 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 4: the game, I joke, yeah, you're looking you're playing U 311 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 4: C l A. I'm like, oh, you look like Bill 312 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 4: Walton out there. And then I looked around, like, none 313 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 4: of these guys have any idea. 314 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 2: That we're going we might talk about that in the 315 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 2: stretch forward. 316 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I'm just like, that's incredible to me. You know, 317 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:26,839 Speaker 4: we wanted to all wait till you want to, but 318 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,679 Speaker 4: I mean, Isaac Osma didn't know who John Wooden was. 319 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, we're going to follow up, and that's yeah. Really 320 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,559 Speaker 3: we're letting we're letting our society down. I think we 321 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 3: really are. So anyway, Yeah, by the end of their. 322 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: Time, they'll know who John Wooden is and they'll have 323 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:39,319 Speaker 1: a medium rare stake. 324 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 4: Then we'll really be getting somewhere progress life. 325 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: Yes, speaking of assists, twenty four assists, three turnovers, that's 326 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: a heck of an assist. 327 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,679 Speaker 4: A turnover ration is pretty good. Yeah, that was when 328 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 4: that popped off the charts too. And I don't care 329 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 4: what it is, but to only turn it over three 330 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 4: times with his especially the way our guys are playing 331 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 4: with as much ball movement as we have, as much 332 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 4: as passing and catching and cutting, you know, to only 333 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 4: turn it over three times was just phenomenal. And obviously 334 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 4: we made a lot of shots, but their willingness to 335 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 4: share the ball and make the extra pass really fun 336 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 4: to watch. 337 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 3: All right, let's take our first break.

And when you hit this time in 461 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 4: the calendar, one of two things happens is sometimes you're 462 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 4: on a team where guys are just wait, ready for 463 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 4: it to be over right, it gets long.

You're feeling good, 508 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 1: and I know we're a week away from it. Next 509 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:00,199 Speaker 1: week's show probably we can hit more on it, but 510 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:02,560 Speaker 1: you got to be feeling good about the way this 511 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: team is playing, and and and and as the calendar 512 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 1: turns to March, you just never know, right. 513 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 3: No, I mean you never know. 514 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 4: And and again it's coach speak, but I've been doing 515 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 4: this a long time now, and just you know, the 516 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,440 Speaker 4: feeling that these guys have just when they're in practice 517 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 4: and they're working, it's. 518 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 3: Just just stay stay there. 519 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,199 Speaker 4: You know what I mean is don't don't think about like, 520 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 4: as hard as that is, don't think about them. We've 521 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 4: talked about, Hey, you know, one of our first goals, 522 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 4: you know, we talked about this, you know, several weeks back, 523 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,120 Speaker 4: was hey, it'd be really cool to get a bye 524 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 4: in the Big Ten tournament. 525 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 3: Right. 526 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 4: I think we've done that. I think we've secured that. 527 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 4: So that's really cool. And you want to win as 528 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 4: many games as you can and uh, and then you know, 529 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,479 Speaker 4: you do that and you put yourself in the best position. 530 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 4: Let's see, we want to go down to the Big 531 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 4: Ten tournament in advance. And I'd say, whenever you're in 532 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 4: those tournaments, the hardest one is just to win the 533 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 4: first one. Yeah, you's got to worry about that. You 534 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 4: start thinking to go, well, you know, look at the brackets. 535 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 4: If we play them, and then we could play them 536 00:22:58,320 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 4: and that's a great matchup. 537 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 3: Three games from now we win, that's so ridiculous. 538 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 4: And I know that that everybody has to do and 539 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 4: all this stuff like that, but that just again, you 540 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,479 Speaker 4: don't just you just got to worry about where you 541 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:10,160 Speaker 4: are right now. 542 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: I ask you this when we were out in Oregon 543 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,880 Speaker 1: for that show, when we did it from the team 544 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: hotel in Oregon, about postseason play. So short of making 545 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 1: the run, all the way to win the Big Ten Tournament, 546 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,160 Speaker 1: to get in the dance you now have. With these 547 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 1: wins and the way you're playing efficiently, your net ranking 548 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: has gone up and that's a valuable commodity to have. 549 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 1: When the Crown Tournament in Vegas and even the NIT 550 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 1: when they start selecting teams as well. And I think 551 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 1: at that point you went on record saying, whatever opportunity 552 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: we would have after the Big Ten Tournament, you're gonna 553 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 1: jump on it. 554 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 4: Is that still the stance? I mean, I think so. 555 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 4: I mean, you got to see what it is. I 556 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 4: know the Crown would be a really cool one. I 557 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 4: think potentially for guys, it's only going to be eight 558 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 4: teams instead of sixteen. But obviously we spent a lot 559 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 4: of time in Vegas, in the Mountain West. I think 560 00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,439 Speaker 4: Fox puts it on. I think they do it. It's 561 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,199 Speaker 4: a pretty classy thing. It's going to be, you know, 562 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 4: really good teams. Nebraska won it last year. I think 563 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 4: that really helped kind of propel them into this year. 564 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 4: There's an nil portion for the guys, but I think 565 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,760 Speaker 4: it's it's just cool, like, you know, you get to stay, 566 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 4: you get to go spend some time out and out 567 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 4: in Vegas and do it. So I think that would 568 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 4: be a cool thing. But again, it's only eight teams 569 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 4: and not sixteen. This year's a little bit harder to 570 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 4: get into. I'm going to be curious to see kind 571 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 4: of how the nit is set up that way and 572 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:26,919 Speaker 4: kind of how they're they're doing that. 573 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you mentioned the approach of just being in 574 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 2: the moment, worrying about what's important. I don't think you 575 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,240 Speaker 2: hang with Michigan on the road like you did if 576 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 2: your guys weren't fully bought in there. We had the 577 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 2: show the day before. I think you guys are Onuary 578 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:40,880 Speaker 2: to the airport last week, and we did it, and 579 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 2: you even joke said, we have to keep talking about Michigan. 580 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 2: We had to keep talking about what's going on. 581 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 3: Man. 582 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 2: Clearly you talked enough about them, and I know you 583 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 2: want to win, but they make things look so easy 584 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 2: at times with some of their shots, and you really 585 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 2: made life difficult for him there for much. 586 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 3: Of the game. Yeah, I said it. 587 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't moral victories aren't my deal, but 588 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,120 Speaker 4: that might be one that I could live with. They 589 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 4: are terrific, I mean in every way, and see what 590 00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,639 Speaker 4: they're doing to teams, and analytically, they're as good of 591 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,639 Speaker 4: a team as we've seen in college basketball in a 592 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 4: long time. And just look at what they did to 593 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 4: Illinois on the road a couple of days later, and 594 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 4: the amount of energy and effort our guys had to 595 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 4: like put out there to hang around and do that 596 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 4: and give themselves a chance. We were down six whatever 597 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 4: it was, with they eight minutes to go, and every 598 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:27,640 Speaker 4: time they made a run, we just kept fighting back. 599 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:29,880 Speaker 3: Just showed me a ton about those guys. 600 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 4: They were warriors, you know that that night, so and 601 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,160 Speaker 4: I told that after the game, and I'm like, we're 602 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 4: walking out of here, We're not spending one more second 603 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 4: thinking about I'm. 604 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 3: Just I was really proud of them. 605 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,080 Speaker 4: And as long as they keep that attitude, you know, 606 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 4: they're gonna be just fine. 607 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 2: Well, the nice thing is you come back off that 608 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 2: and play great on Saturday, you know. So it's like, 609 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 2: whether they were disappointed or not, I'm sure they had 610 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 2: some confidence, you know, going toe to toe with the 611 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 2: team that might win the national championship. But sometimes when 612 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 2: you're only playing however many guys you're playing, they might 613 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:57,920 Speaker 2: not have enough for the next game. 614 00:25:57,960 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 3: And you guys clearly did. They did. 615 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 4: And again sometimes it's just a gut feel, but you 616 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 4: know that was one you had to go into the 617 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 4: locker room and just you know, really praise them for 618 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 4: their effort. And you know, I'm just proud of those guys, 619 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 4: and like I told them, then then I'll go to 620 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 4: battle with the you guys any day, because they all 621 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:14,640 Speaker 4: you can ask them a group is that they give 622 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,199 Speaker 4: you everything they have and that's what they did, and 623 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:18,679 Speaker 4: that's kind of what they continue to do. 624 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 3: And Michigan has that. 625 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 1: I think you even termed its spurt ability, which you 626 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: know it means they get all of a sudden, you look. 627 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: And that happened, right, I mean, from the twelve minute 628 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 1: mark to the eight minute mark, you guys are even 629 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 1: with them much of the game, led some of that 630 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 1: first half. They get up thirty to twenty. You cut 631 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 1: it to four at half, and then they had a 632 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 1: couple of dudes off the bench come in and hit 633 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: I don't know, four threes and like a three minute 634 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 1: stretch and all of a sudden, you look up, I 635 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: forget it was sixteen or eighteen. I'm like, well, there 636 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:47,399 Speaker 1: it is, and yet your six guys still don't go away, 637 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: and they have a shot in the air. I think 638 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: Durkin has a three in the air that would have 639 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 1: cut it to eight with two and a half or 640 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:52,880 Speaker 1: three minutes to go. 641 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 3: They just they just kept fighting, you know, Yeah they did. 642 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 4: They just kept battling and just be talking about just 643 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 4: win possessions. Just try to win the next possession, don't 644 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 4: look at the score, just keep battling. 645 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 3: And that's what they did. 646 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 4: But yeah, they are They're a different team and you 647 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 4: can just see it even in warm ups and when 648 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 4: you line up, it's like they are a different a 649 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 4: different group. And yeah, it wouldn't surprise me at all 650 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 4: if you know they're in Indianapolis with a chance to 651 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 4: cut down the nuts. 652 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, they've got they've got a lot of stuff. I know. 653 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 1: They just had an injury to one of those guys 654 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 1: that was hitting threes, which is too bad. Anyway, we'll 655 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,880 Speaker 1: see where that goes with Michigan for March badness. 656 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,120 Speaker 3: They are Actually we done talk about Michigan. Yep, We're 657 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:30,440 Speaker 3: all done. 658 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: I wasn't even going to bring I wasn't even going 659 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,200 Speaker 1: to bring it up. So I'm dropping that on Guardee's lap. 660 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 1: For bringing up the Wolverines, but I thought it was 661 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: a fun. 662 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 2: I might make it my entire stretch for just talk 663 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 2: about Michigan, and I might just to irritate the hitding. 664 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 2: I might pivot. Yeah, we've only got a couple of 665 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 2: shows left. He'll he'll forget he's mad at me by 666 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,239 Speaker 2: next year.

He had no idea who it is, no idea. 738 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 2: You settled on Jokich, right, Jokich okay, which is a 739 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 2: good fallback. 740 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 3: Hopefully he knows who he is. 741 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:54,720 Speaker 2: But I could see in his face he was waiting 742 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 2: for the old guy to stop talking. When I said, 743 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 2: Bill Walton twenty one to twenty two in a national 744 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 2: championship game, and the one that he missed, he caught it, 745 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 2: rebounded and put it right back in. 746 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 3: And Grayson's like, I just want to go get some lunch. 747 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 9: Bro. 748 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, cool, I'll go look yeah whatever. Then I saw, like, 749 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:10,680 Speaker 3: do YouTube me out. He's like no. I'm like, well, 750 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 3: they're never going to do it. 751 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 2: It's like you said, they got to meet a stop 752 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 2: play because they're missing out on these years of basketball resources. 753 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 4: Maybe I need to do a better job as a coach, 754 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 4: you know, and maybe at a certain sight, we need 755 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 4: to have times where we like pull out some old videos. 756 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 4: And it's just like me when these guys want to 757 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 4: talk about Jordan, you know, compared to some of these 758 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,680 Speaker 4: other guys, like, come on, man, you never Jordan. I mean, 759 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 4: he grew up, watched him. It's like he actually got 760 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 4: back on defense every time, you know what I mean. Anyway, 761 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 4: it's no comparison to what you know. They're going to say, Well, 762 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 4: we play more possessions in the games. Yes, some of 763 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:42,719 Speaker 4: that I don't know. I don't know if I buy it. 764 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 2: I knew when I was going to the timberwolveslves game 765 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:46,719 Speaker 2: Michael Jordan was going to play that night when I 766 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 2: was a seventh Right, Oh good shot. But that's what 767 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 2: happens now, Like you feel bad for people when they 768 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 2: show up to these NBA games and you know three 769 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 2: of the guys aren't playing, right, that's something we don't 770 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 2: we never had to deal with. 771 00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 4: Didn't you know? Different different time that way. But yeah, 772 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 4: says I'm amazed every here. I go back and just 773 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 4: realize how how old I'm getting, and like the things 774 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 4: that meant so much to me they don't get. But again, 775 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 4: I think it sounds a great part about being a teacher. 776 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 4: I think we can help introduce them to some things 777 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 4: that you know, will have impact on their life. 778 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: You know, even with Walton with his you know, his 779 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: playing days were long ago, but he had such a 780 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 1: presence on the college basketball broadcast for years and you 781 00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 1: got to spend time with him a lot.

So yeah, I mean, obviously I thought the 822 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 4: book that Seth Davis did on him was one of 823 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 4: the better books I've read, because it talk really just 824 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 4: more about the experience of coaching kind of emotionally.

But going back to just really how unhappy 832 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,359 Speaker 4: he was at the end, and he had this great 833 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,799 Speaker 4: quote where he said, you know, I'd wish that all 834 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:29,880 Speaker 4: my friends and people that I cared about would have 835 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 4: an opportunity to win a national championship, and for all 836 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 4: the people that I really didn't care for very much, 837 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 4: they'd have a chance to win several. Yeah, and I've 838 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,799 Speaker 4: kind of stop. But then when you really understood it, 839 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 4: how I do emotionally in him was like it just 840 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 4: got to this point where nothing was ever good enough. 841 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 4: The expectations were just through the roof. You go beat 842 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 4: somebody by eleven instead of twenty. It's what's wrong. Just 843 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 4: felt like you didn't have control and you just weren't 844 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 4: enjoying it. Anymore, you know, and winning wasn't enough. It 845 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 4: was how much you wanted. The only thing would be 846 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:04,360 Speaker 4: just you know, dominating everybody to another national championship. And 847 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 4: it kind of took the joy out of what he 848 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 4: really wanted to do. And that really stood out to me. 849 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 2: Who else did you look towards or up to like 850 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:13,839 Speaker 2: as as guys as you were coming up? 851 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,120 Speaker 4: Well, I mean I think you were just talking coaching 852 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:18,799 Speaker 4: when you watched it, And these fans here might might 853 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,279 Speaker 4: find it crazy, but I was a big Bob Knight fan. Okay, uh, 854 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 4: just again, I mean maybe and then you know, now 855 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,399 Speaker 4: he's one of my closest friends. But but even you know, 856 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:30,840 Speaker 4: the Dick Bennett, you know, being a Midwest guy, and 857 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 4: just kind of realized what they did. I just thought 858 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 4: that those two guys had so much impact just from 859 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 4: even from an x's and o's perspective of how the 860 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:42,279 Speaker 4: game was being played, you know, schematically on both ends 861 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,320 Speaker 4: of the floor. And so those were guys I think everybody, 862 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 4: especially up here like in the Midwest, and you were young, 863 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 4: you you really followed. 864 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 3: So what was it about Night? First of all, your 865 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:53,759 Speaker 3: players know about Bobby Knight, well, you know who he is. 866 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:56,400 Speaker 3: I asked Mark, was that he threw the chair? What 867 00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 3: was it like last week? Yes, I imagine a coach 868 00:35:58,719 --> 00:35:59,959 Speaker 3: doing that today. I can't. 869 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,360 Speaker 4: I mean, holy cow, I mean make it to the 870 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,439 Speaker 4: locker room before. Yeah, it was weird then too. 871 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:08,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's probably the only one that could do it 872 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 3: and have even remotely get away with that. 873 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,920 Speaker 4: I think, you know, obviously he won a ton, but 874 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 4: it was just you know, the the consistency, the way 875 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 4: they ran motion offense, I mean even the the the 876 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:23,920 Speaker 4: defensive schemes sort of stuff that it's not that. He 877 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 4: was also really really innovative, you know, as a coach. 878 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 4: And I'm kind of an old school guy. I'm a 879 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,600 Speaker 4: Minnesota fan, but you know, it's the it's the Hoosiers, 880 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 4: it's the Pinstripe, the Indiana high school basketball and just basketball. 881 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 3: That was kind of the epicenter. And it's cool. 882 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:41,200 Speaker 4: I haven't been back in Assembly Hall. I think the 883 00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:43,320 Speaker 4: last time I was there was when I wasn't manager. 884 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,759 Speaker 4: If I was a coach, Yeah, I was wondering, you know, 885 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 4: So it's gonna be pretty cool to go back and 886 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:49,919 Speaker 4: have an opportunity to play there. 887 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 1: That was on my list for the next segment.

It's 961 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 4: one of those places where you do have an opportunity 962 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:38,759 Speaker 4: to go and coach a game or play a game, 963 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:41,759 Speaker 4: and you remember it, you know. So yeah, I'm looking 964 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 4: forward to the to the opportunity to get back there. 965 00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 2: What do you remember about the games of that era 966 00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:48,359 Speaker 2: there when you were when you were we just saw 967 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:49,839 Speaker 2: the picture of you and the manager in a suit 968 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:51,840 Speaker 2: that's probably a few sizes too big, no tailors for 969 00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:56,480 Speaker 2: the manager. But what what do you remember about going 970 00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 2: there in those teams? I mean we're talking about still 971 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:00,279 Speaker 2: kind of at the height of their power or you 972 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:01,800 Speaker 2: know Clement obviously, Coach. 973 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:05,240 Speaker 4: Knight, yeah, you know, you just there's just this aura 974 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:07,440 Speaker 4: kind of about him. You know that you knew you 975 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 4: were going into the to the hornet's nest. 976 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:09,759 Speaker 5: Right. 977 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,040 Speaker 4: They didn't lose very often anywhere, but they really didn't 978 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:16,400 Speaker 4: didn't lose there, and just the atmosphere, the energy and 979 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 4: Bob Knight, as you know had been around him was 980 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 4: I mean, Coach Askins was an imposing guy, but Knight 981 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,319 Speaker 4: was a really imposing guy. I mean just kind of 982 00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:27,920 Speaker 4: this towering figure just in college basketball and in general, 983 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:31,480 Speaker 4: and so really kind of an intimidating atmosphere. 984 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 1: And I think until you see it in person, because 985 00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:37,759 Speaker 1: you watch Bob Knight in on TV in the Game 986 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 1: of the Week or whatever it was, but until you 987 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 1: see it in person, there's I don't think there's ever 988 00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 1: been a college coach that quite had his sideline one. 989 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 1: He's imposing, right, just he's a bigger guy than you 990 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 1: think you see it on TV, and he's around six 991 00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 1: foot eight.
