I asked you what's the plan for the 28 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 3: tel and now you do something we've never done. Do 29 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 3: you ever do things coach that you don't practice, like 30 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 3: before you get into a game, do you or do 31 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 3: you like to have a plan and get in there 32 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 3: and say you don't just go into a timeouego, we're 33 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 3: going to run a play we haven't done all year 34 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 3: in a big situation act we don't practice yet. I 35 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 3: have seven guys. I'm sorry. 36 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 2: I thought I thought we had a couple of professionals 37 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 2: up here that would just be able to handle it 38 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 2: and ask a question about the game. I can do you, 39 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 2: guys job if you want to ask us questions. 40 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 4: Yeah. 41 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 2: Well, a nice win against the against the iowah Hawk guys, 42 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:43,399 Speaker 2: for sure. 43 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 5: Well I appreciate that was that was a really fun night. 44 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 5: I thought our guys had had a great mindset going 45 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 5: into the game. I thought our defense in the first 46 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 5: half was as well as we've played all year. Against 47 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 5: a really good Iowa team, and Langston I thought set 48 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 5: the tone on Bennett's starts. Ball screen defense was great. 49 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 5: Everybody was playing together, was playing hard. We executed on offense. Again, 50 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 5: I couldn't have asked more in the in the first half, really, 51 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 5: to be honest, for about the first you know, fifteen 52 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 5: minutes or fifteen minutes out of the second half, so 53 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 5: about thirty five of those minutes were terrific, and you 54 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 5: knew they were gonna make a run. It obviously got 55 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,359 Speaker 5: a little hairy there at the end, but I think 56 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 5: the basketball gods worked in our favor, and sometimes it 57 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 5: happens that way, but I thought we really outplayed them 58 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 5: and earned the right to win that game. 59 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 4: So thank goodness it worked out. 60 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought so too. I thought the team that 61 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,239 Speaker 2: deserved to win won the game for sure. And they 62 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 2: do take a lead there for a second and you're 63 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 2: starting to think, man, are we gonna let this leak away? 64 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 4: But the thing that I really liked about the. 65 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,399 Speaker 2: Group, and it has kind of been the case through 66 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,920 Speaker 2: this winning streak you guys had, was that they just 67 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 2: they just weren't gonna let it not be a win. 68 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:52,959 Speaker 4: They made the plays necessary. 69 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 5: You just got to go on and make the next play, 70 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 5: you know, whatever it was. And so yeah, had Jalen 71 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 5: Crocker Johnson hits that hits that huge three, didn't hesitate 72 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 5: at all, and we just didn't look back from there. 73 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 5: So it was a real gut check there at the end. 74 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 5: But again it's growth in our guys, you know, not 75 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 5: panicking when it starts to go get away from you. 76 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 4: That's that's kind of basketball. There's runs in the game. 77 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 5: Very rarely do you just go out there, and especially 78 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 5: against really good teams just kind of you know, dominate 79 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 5: from beginning to end and pull away. You love when 80 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 5: those happen, but that's usually not the way it works. 81 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 3: Is that something that you are talking about late in 82 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 3: the game, because I know when the lead is dwindling 83 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 3: and they're making some shots and some of it as 84 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:33,359 Speaker 3: too as they have to make shots, so they're just 85 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 3: letting them fly right, and they're good shooters that you 86 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 3: can see it on guys faces sometimes maybe not so 87 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 3: much in the Iowa game, but in other games. And 88 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 3: we've certainly all watched enough basketball. Do you have to 89 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 3: as the head coach, really get their minds right? But 90 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 3: we can't worry about it now, there's only one way 91 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 3: moving forward. 92 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, you know, I think most coaches are 93 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 5: just constantly you know it's a cliche, but you know 94 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 5: the next best action. You know, nothing that happened to 95 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 5: play before the half, before whatever has anything to do 96 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 5: with what's going to happen on the next possession. You 97 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 5: just got to keep digging in and playing. And I 98 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 5: think you learn those things. The resiliency. I thought, you know, 99 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 5: we had just been in a game at Northwestern, you know, 100 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 5: say we were down, and the guys came back and 101 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 5: didn't you know, panic in the timeout and just made 102 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 5: the next play. And so I think they're really starting 103 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 5: to learn that as a group. But it doesn't happen overnight. 104 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 5: But sometimes we've all been in those situations. It can 105 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,359 Speaker 5: be helpless as a coach. The other team starts getting 106 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 5: on a run and they get aggressive and you maybe 107 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 5: you miss a couple of free throws, and I thought 108 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:27,919 Speaker 5: we even missed a couple of good looks and that 109 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 5: stretch that maybe could have you know, kept him at 110 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:31,359 Speaker 5: arm's length. 111 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 4: But again, that's the way it goes. 112 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 5: I'm just proud of our guys for for hanging in 113 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 5: there and you know, making enough plays, you know, a 114 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 5: couple of teaching things at the end of that game 115 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 5: that we can do better in those close games. But man, 116 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 5: what a what a great win for us. And to 117 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 5: already have two opportunities for the students to storm. 118 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 4: The court here is really really cool. 119 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 5: You want them to come, you want them to have 120 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 5: a great time, to have those memories and then you know, 121 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 5: hopefully come back to the next game and hopefully we're 122 00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,919 Speaker 5: starting to build that here because that's huge for our program. 123 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 3: What is important or what was important with Starts, as 124 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 3: you mentioned, because he didn't have a very good half, 125 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 3: I think you said postgame, you told the guys, guys, 126 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 3: he's really good. 127 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 4: He's going to get going at some point. He's not 128 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 4: going to let that bother him. 129 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 3: So I don't expect you to give me the sky 130 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 3: and report and the and the whole breakdown. 131 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 4: But what's important with a guy. 132 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 5: Like that, Well, you know, most of his stuff is 133 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 5: created off ball screens, right, and so he's a great 134 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 5: pick and roll player. That's what IOWA does. They run 135 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 5: a you know, ball screen motion offense. I just thought 136 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 5: we did a great job at the point of attack 137 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 5: and sometimes It just starts with you know, not letting 138 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,239 Speaker 5: m we call him bingos, not letting a guard reject 139 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 5: the ball screen, and a lot of it, guys, it's 140 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 5: just it's just having the toughness to battle through those 141 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 5: screens and you know, you want to get two to 142 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 5: the ball for as little as possible, you know, in 143 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 5: those ball screen situations. 144 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 4: And I thought our guys did that. 145 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 5: I thought the players behind him, we call him the 146 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 5: three fifths. It's five guys guarding that ball screen action. 147 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 5: I thought just did a great job over and over 148 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 5: and over again and really making it difficult in their 149 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 5: ball screen motion to create an advantage. And you know, 150 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 5: later in the game it was just a lot more 151 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 5: one on one stuff, you know that that he did 152 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 5: and got downhill on us a few times on some 153 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 5: different switches and stuff like that. But again, it's hard. 154 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 5: You do it for twenty eight minutes, you do it 155 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 5: for thirty two minutes. It's really hard to do that 156 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 5: for a player for forty minutes, a guy at his caliber. 157 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 2: And then Langston Reynolds, as you mentioned once, once it 158 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 2: became a parent that Sturtz was going to try to 159 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 2: take the game over and the ball was going to 160 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 2: be in his hands, and they were working just back 161 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 2: and forth on those screens out front. I'm honestly, I'm 162 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 2: not sure I've seen a four or five minute stretch 163 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 2: where a guy's worked harder playing defense, going up over under, 164 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 2: trying to get through and pretty contained him pretty well there. 165 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,559 Speaker 2: I mean, I thought Sturtz looked like he was getting frust. 166 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 2: I mean he's I mean you mentioned this too. He 167 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 2: plays like a robot, and that's meant as a as 168 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 2: a as a compliment, not a you know, he just 169 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 2: is a machine out there, like he just keeps going. 170 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 2: But I thought if you could see any frustration, maybe 171 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 2: you could sense it there a little bit with him. 172 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 5: I think one thing that's really important against against great 173 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:01,919 Speaker 5: play and scores is to try to get off to 174 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 5: a good start. You know, if you let them get 175 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 5: going early in the game, now you really got a 176 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 5: problem on your hands, you know. And we saw that 177 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 5: a little bit, you know, next night against USC. But 178 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 5: I thought the start on him early, he had to 179 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 5: work really hard to get the points that that he got. 180 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 5: And I think that's really what you want to do. 181 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 3: What's the Nico Medvet inner monologue? As those three final 182 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 3: shots are going up in that final possession. 183 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 4: Man, it happens so fast. 184 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 3: You almost swore a couple weeks ago, I remember, so 185 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 3: I want to warn you be careful. 186 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 5: I you know, it's really a helpless feeling, to be honest. 187 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 5: You know, you go down. We're in the events. You 188 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 5: know they needed three again. We talked about it before. 189 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 5: I don't believe with the new continuation rule and whatever, 190 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 5: it's hard to file. So there's like fourteen seconds they're 191 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 5: bringing it full court. You can't file with you know, 192 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 5: ten seconds left. That's too much time in my opinion. 193 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 5: You know, you want to be probably five or under 194 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 5: something along those lines. So they've already got the ball 195 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 5: in the front court. Fans know the new rule. You know, 196 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 5: you go in and you start to follow a guy 197 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 5: like that in the front court. They still get one 198 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 5: more step now in college and can shoot it. You 199 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 5: saw it in the in the notre team game the 200 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 5: other night that they lost. Right, they give him three 201 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 5: five and he made it four point play. But you 202 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 5: definitely don't want to follow him shooting at three, so 203 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 5: you're in your three point field goal defense. He took 204 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,119 Speaker 5: a tough one I thought to start. He just shot 205 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 5: it right away. Kind of took a weird care of 206 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 5: I thought, but we didn't come up with the rebound. 207 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 5: You know, you get the rebound, the game might be over, right, 208 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 5: get the rebound, make one more free throw for four points? 209 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 4: Games over. They get it. 210 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 5: Guy makes a great play, kicks it to the corner, 211 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 5: gets a pretty clean look, and this is the one 212 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 5: where we can test it and everybody, not everybody, but 213 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 5: kind of stares and watches it. And that's where I'm 214 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 5: just like, oh no, you know, and they get another one. 215 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 5: And that was that third one. I'm like, oh my gosh, 216 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 5: and I'm already planning. Honestly, my monologue is like, all right, 217 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 5: what do we gotta do to get these guys ready 218 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 5: for overtime? Yeah, honestly, that's what I'm thinking. I'm just like, Okay, 219 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:57,839 Speaker 5: this goes in. These guys are going to come in here. 220 00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 5: What are we going to do to get ourselves who 221 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 5: just outplayed them the whole game? How are we going 222 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 5: to regroup and get these guys ready for overtime? That's 223 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 5: what I'm thinking. And then it misses and you're like, 224 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 5: thank god almighty, right, yeah, you know, and then join 225 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 5: the celebration. 226 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, how quickly does it? Like, what's your first thought? 227 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 3: Like after when it's clear and you're like and everybody's 228 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 3: coming out on the floor. We talked about it on 229 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 3: the TV show, like it happens so fast, that's got 230 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 3: to be a pretty cool feeling. 231 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 4: It's a really cool feeling. 232 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,319 Speaker 5: It takes you a second to kind of process a 233 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 5: little bit, but then by the time you get kind 234 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,439 Speaker 5: of through the handshake line like over there, you're kind 235 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 5: of like, heck yeah, and. 236 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 2: That never gets old and you forget how how long 237 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 2: three seconds can be because I think part of why 238 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 2: everyone's just watching that second shot is well, that's going 239 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 2: to be the last shot. The time is obviously going 240 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 2: to run out, and then it misses, and now you're 241 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 2: like it's still two seconds, still one second, and then 242 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 2: it gets a shot off and you can do a 243 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 2: lot on a basketball court in three seconds. 244 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 4: It's a good lesson. 245 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 5: Then you definitely can you know, usually say a dribble 246 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 5: or a pass, you know, per per second, you know 247 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 5: kind of thing. And it was interesting, you know, this 248 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 5: new rule in college hoops, and the head of officials 249 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 5: was at our game, you know, Friday night, and hopefully 250 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 5: I think they'll they'll probably change it to more of 251 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 5: the NBA model. It's new for college officials, this continuation rule, 252 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 5: where you know, they actually got. 253 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 4: To be attempting a real shot. 254 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 5: You know, it's supposed to be more shots at the rim, 255 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 5: not where you know, guy you follow him and he 256 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 5: just flails and you know, throws one up. You know, 257 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 5: they haven't really cleaned that up yet. So again, it 258 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 5: puts in a precarious position. You know, for a fan, 259 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 5: we probably would have if we were shooting the free 260 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 5: throw to go up three and there was like six 261 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 5: seconds or less, we probably would have tried to foul 262 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 5: in the in the backcourt. You know that then I 263 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 5: think that you know, could be a good play, but 264 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 5: there was just too much time. 265 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:36,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, no doubt about it. 266 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 2: Let's take our first break, we'll come back, we'll recap 267 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:43,839 Speaker 2: Friday's game, we'll preview Tuesday night basketball Minnesota and Wisconsin. 268 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 2: That is all straight ahead Ward Buffalo Wild Wings and 269 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 2: it is Go for Basketball Weekly with Nico medved Or 270 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 2: at the University of Minnesota location right next to Williams Arena. 271 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 2: Buffalo Wild Wings proud sponsor of Gopher Athletics and the 272 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 2: official sports Bar of March Madness.

All right, 372 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 2: let's talk about this past Friday's game. 373 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 4: Overtime game. It was it was. It was a struggle 374 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 4: for a while there. 375 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 2: You guys then put the charge on, come from behind, 376 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 2: take a lead. Late after watching the film, now what 377 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 2: do you have a better feel for. 378 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 5: Kind of how the thing all unfolded. It's a tough loss. 379 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 5: I mean, in a lot of ways, losing is always hard. 380 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 5: But I thought, you know, on the positive side, you know, 381 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 5: being down thirteen, went through some foul trouble there early 382 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 5: in the first half, decided to play a couple, not 383 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 5: play a couple of those guys with two in the 384 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 5: first half. 385 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 4: Thought we mitigated that. 386 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,160 Speaker 5: But to be down thirteen and battle back the way 387 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 5: we did and take the lead, I thought showed a lot. 388 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 4: Of guts from that team. 389 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 5: So they're really showing me something, you know, I mean, 390 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 5: you look out you have Bobby Durkin played forty five minutes. Yea, 391 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 5: Kate Dyson played forty five minutes. I thought they gave 392 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 5: us everything they had, and it's unfortunate we just couldn't 393 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,919 Speaker 5: find a way to make one more play. You know, 394 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 5: we did some good things and a couple of things 395 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 5: that didn't go our way, you know, down the stretch. 396 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 4: Give them credit. 397 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,439 Speaker 5: I thought they made some tough shots too, did a 398 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 5: great job taking away all of our back cuts. 399 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 4: You know, they were kind of unique in what they 400 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 4: did defensively. 401 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 5: And then as a coach, I always looked back at 402 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,159 Speaker 5: a couple of those situations, all right, what could we 403 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 5: have done differently to try to help them? There was 404 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 5: one thing we didn't execute the way we needed to, 405 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 5: and we had a couple of different guys on the 406 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 5: floor maybe than we normally would have had in that situation, 407 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 5: guys being out out of the game. But that's not 408 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 5: an excuse, you know. And you're always say as a coach, 409 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 5: well maybe I didn't you know, it wasn't clear enough. 410 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 5: So it's not it's not on them. But yeah, that's 411 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 5: the way it goes. And like I told the guys, 412 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 5: you know, you're in the arena. You have a game 413 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,640 Speaker 5: the other night that goes your way. It's that exhilaration 414 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,400 Speaker 5: and then the heartbreaking one that doesn't. Man, you're gonna 415 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 5: have those, and that's just part of being in the arena. 416 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,479 Speaker 5: Most people who haven't been there don't understand what that 417 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 5: feels like emotionally, and that's fine to let it hurt, 418 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 5: but then man, you got to get over it. Yeah, 419 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 5: and we got another one here coming up on Tuesday. 420 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 4: Yeah. 421 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 2: And when you talk about the arena, you mean literally 422 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 2: the arena, but figuratively as well. 423 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:39,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, in both cases. 424 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 2: And I asked you this in the pregame, coming off 425 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 2: of an emotional win, how do you handle it to 426 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 2: keep the guys grounded? And then I asked you in 427 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 2: the post game, Okay, you have five game winning streak snapped? 428 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 4: How do you handle it? 429 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 2: And in essence, you're like, we don't change much, but 430 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 2: after a loss, we do want to, you know, hammer 431 00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,360 Speaker 2: out what what happened and learned and then and then 432 00:18:58,480 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 2: dispatch it and then move off. 433 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 5: I said the same thing, and win even after a win. 434 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 5: You know what you wouldn't accept in losing, you can't 435 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 5: accept in winning either, So same thing against I would 436 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 5: usc both close games. 437 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 4: Doesn't matter whether we win or loss. 438 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 5: There's a lot of things we got to learn from 439 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 5: both those situations, just like Northwestern went our way, a 440 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 5: lot of things you got to learn. So what I mean, 441 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,639 Speaker 5: you don't you don't change those things. You got to 442 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 5: keep growing and learning no matter what. And man, you 443 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 5: got to let it hurt, you gotta let it sting. 444 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 5: And that's okay, but then you've got to come in, 445 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:27,399 Speaker 5: learn from it, and you got to get your spirit 446 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 5: back get ready to roll. 447 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, what keeps you up that night? Like as the coach, 448 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 3: like are you a guy that can deal with it 449 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 3: the next day? We talk about you don't watch film 450 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:36,480 Speaker 3: usually until the next day. I don't know if you 451 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 3: did that on Friday or not, But what what are 452 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:39,400 Speaker 3: you thinking about as you go. 453 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 4: Home and process? 454 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 5: I always think about myself first, like could I have 455 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 5: helped them? Like is there something else that I could 456 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 5: have done as a coach to try to help them 457 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 5: in that situation. That's the first thing I always do. 458 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 5: I do that every game. I think that's your your responsibility, 459 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 5: and you know, you always are willing to tell the 460 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 5: players the next day, Hey I didn't do a good 461 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:00,919 Speaker 5: enough job here for you guys, or I wish I 462 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 5: would have You know, that's not your fault, and I 463 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 5: think that's okay. I think players appreciate that. That's what 464 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 5: creates the accountability across your program. 465 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 4: So that's what gets me. 466 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,920 Speaker 5: A couple of those situations, man like kind of liked 467 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:13,719 Speaker 5: what we did there? Maybe we should you know, if 468 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 5: it didn't work, You're like well, maybe we should have 469 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 5: tried something different, you know that that kind of a thing, 470 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 5: you know, the defensive play late when we got the 471 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 5: lead in overtime. Man, you know, we didn't have a 472 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 5: time out there left and you kind of know what 473 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 5: they're gonna do, and we didn't get to the switch 474 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 5: we needed to, and you know, probably I thought it 475 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:32,719 Speaker 5: was a tough call, but it doesn't matter. We let 476 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 5: you know, Mazari get downhill. I mean, everybody on planet 477 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 5: Earth knows who's going to shoot the shot, you know 478 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 5: what I mean. Like, so, so I think that was 479 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 5: frustrating a little bit, but so yeah, you do. And 480 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 5: then you kind of it's hard to sleep usually, you know, 481 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 5: that night you got to get up the next day. 482 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 5: I watched the film and then man, I'm onto the Badgers. 483 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 3: You mentioned the defense that they played kind of midway 484 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 3: through the first half. They essentially just put their seven 485 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 3: foot five guy in the middle and kept him off 486 00:20:58,359 --> 00:20:59,120 Speaker 3: Langston Reynolds. 487 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 4: So what for Gopher fans? 488 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:02,919 Speaker 3: I think we call that the Femio to Collie, right, 489 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 3: because some other teams did that a few years ago. 490 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:08,719 Speaker 3: So what made that unique or different? And how did 491 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 3: you try to navigate? 492 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 4: But I think the difference was it's it's one thing. 493 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 5: I mean, teams do that, but it's one thing to 494 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,479 Speaker 5: have a seven to four guy or whatever than a 495 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 5: six to nine guy, right for sure. And it so 496 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 5: I think that was a little bit different for us 497 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 5: that way. But you know, when I went back and 498 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:27,880 Speaker 5: watched it, you know, we we also we had some 499 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 5: we still had some good opportunities, you know, to do it. 500 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:31,919 Speaker 4: So it was different. 501 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,679 Speaker 5: It wasn't like it was something we hadn't talked about 502 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 5: or worked on, you know, at all. But you know, yeah, 503 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 5: it did. It took away some of our back cuts 504 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 5: and everything. But at the same point in time, I 505 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 5: really thought defensively in the second half, I thought we 506 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 5: did a great job. I thought we were really good 507 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 5: on that way. We made it difficult on them, We 508 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 5: challenged them. They made some tough shots to a crazy one. See, 509 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 5: you got to give them credit. You know, that's the 510 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 5: way that that the game the game goes. So, yeah, 511 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 5: it was different, but it wasn't, you know, anything that 512 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 5: we hadn't necessarily seen before. What made it unique was 513 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 5: not everybody has a seven to four guy, and what's 514 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 5: interesting about them that kid sometimes doesn't play. 515 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,920 Speaker 4: At all I could. I mean, yeah, yeah, And. 516 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 5: So sometimes he doesn't even play, so like you're preparing 517 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 5: for him and then act they played him thirty six minutes, 518 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 5: you know, and it's funny. So it just sometimes, you know, 519 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 5: game to game things happen. And that's the way it 520 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 5: worked out the other night. 521 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 2: In a situation like that too, you've got a guard 522 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 2: who's who's basically being dared to shoot. So looking at 523 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 2: Langston's history, he was a twenty percent three point shooter 524 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 2: as a freshman. It was like eighteen percent as a sophomore, 525 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 2: than forty percent last year. 526 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 4: I mean, he made eighteen threes. 527 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 2: So at what point do you say we got to 528 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 2: we gotta have him take a few of those threes, 529 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 2: or we're not going to have him. 530 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 4: And what is your thoughts on that part of it? 531 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 4: I think, yeah, I mean somewhere in the middle. 532 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 5: I think, you know, it's not necessarily heyes, go down 533 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 5: and shoot the first one, but I think, yeah, being 534 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 5: willing to shoot some of those. You know, it says 535 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 5: in the stat sheet he shot four, but one of 536 00:22:58,080 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 5: them was just a grenade. You know, at the end 537 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 5: of the we call him grenades, right end of the 538 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,919 Speaker 5: Proximody goes. I mean, he just that doesn't even count. 539 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 5: But he did shoot and he made one. You know, 540 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 5: Grayson made one too, So those guys went two of five. Yeah, 541 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 5: look at the analytics, that's pretty good. Well, you know 542 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,360 Speaker 5: what I mean. So so they're they're. 543 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 4: Open to it. 544 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 5: You know, that's more than a point of possession. 545 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 4: You take that any day. 546 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,359 Speaker 2: Just just I'm gonna guess the answer is no. But 547 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 2: just part of you say, if they're going to just 548 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 2: give it to him at Langston, take ten threes and 549 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 2: if he hits three, you might you might one get 550 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 2: him out of that or two three of tens, pretty 551 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 2: I mean analytically that that works. 552 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think I think there is some of that, 553 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,920 Speaker 5: you know we talk about. I think it's like everything else. 554 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 5: It doesn't mean that's the first shot, yes, or all 555 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 5: the time. I mean, you always want to put pressure 556 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 5: on the rim and there's so many other things we 557 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:44,919 Speaker 5: can do. But but yeah, I mean those guys shoot, 558 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:46,919 Speaker 5: you know, every day in practice and you and you 559 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,400 Speaker 5: watch them, and so yeah, I think there's a balance there. 560 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 5: But but yeah, sometimes it's just hey, you gotta be 561 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 5: willing to shoot when you're open. 562 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, could you feel the barn crowds at a different 563 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 3: level last week in both of those games? 564 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, you know, it's it's fun. I thought the crowd, 565 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 5: you know, really got into it. I thought when we 566 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 5: were making our run in the second half against usc 567 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,959 Speaker 5: you could really feel, you know, the energy in the crowd. 568 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 4: And that's that's awesome. And both games. 569 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 5: I make sure, just because it didn't go our way 570 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,400 Speaker 5: against usc Man, the crowd made a huge we don't 571 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 5: come back my opinion. Yeah, without like that that energy 572 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,119 Speaker 5: from the crowd that way, So that was phenomenal. 573 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:25,920 Speaker 4: You're welcome. I was there. You're welcome. Well, thank you. 574 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,400 Speaker 4: I really appreciate you like doing that. 575 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 6: Thank you. 576 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:29,160 Speaker 4: Yeah. 577 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 3: My father did think I was on the officials too much. 578 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 3: We did have a little bit of a father son's skull. 579 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 3: He's like, you really shouldn't be doing that.

Obviously, the guy that you want 629 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 2: to shoot it had the ball in his hands, a 630 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:20,360 Speaker 2: number two score in the Big ten. 631 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know you're in that situation. 632 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 5: So Isaac had fouled out, obviously, so you're you're you 633 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 5: have a little bit of a different you know, your 634 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 5: point guard so to speak, or your second you know, 635 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 5: another handlers not on the floor, so that kind of 636 00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 5: changes up a little bit. Maybe some of the things 637 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 5: that we had practiced. So one of the things we 638 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 5: did was not something we had practiced, but was pretty simple, 639 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,919 Speaker 5: and we just didn't quite clear out the space the 640 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 5: way that I wanted to. So that's the one I 641 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 5: was a little disappointed in. And it wasn't you know, 642 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 5: the fault. Maybe I wasn't clear enough. And it's very 643 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,199 Speaker 5: simple thing of getting the ball to cade, you know, 644 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 5: in the right spot or whatever, and allowing him to 645 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 5: kind of with some to make a play. Still got 646 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 5: to look there was that the regulation, Yeah, you know, 647 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 5: it didn't and then in overtime, you know, again we 648 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 5: get simple. 649 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 4: He had a smaller guy on him. 650 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 5: We wanted to throw it to him down there, and 651 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 5: I thought we got the ball to exactly the spot 652 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,439 Speaker 5: we wanted to. And if you look at the play, 653 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,399 Speaker 5: he's getting ready and he's about to the spot he 654 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 5: wants and he's about to turn and shoot what I 655 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 5: think is a pretty clean look yep, And that kid 656 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 5: did a nice job just at the last second reached 657 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 5: around and just got his finger on the ball and 658 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,120 Speaker 5: kind of knocked it loose to the baseline. So now 659 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:32,919 Speaker 5: he had to go recover it on the baseline and 660 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,160 Speaker 5: we're kind of dead. So just it was just sort 661 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 5: of unfortunate because I thought, you know, he was about ready, he'd. 662 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 4: Gotten to the spot. 663 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 5: He was a lot bigger than that guy, which we knew, 664 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 5: and he's about ready to turn and just shoot it 665 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 5: over him. And the kid did a pretty much the 666 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 5: only thing he could do in that scenario. He reached 667 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 5: around him from behind and just got a finger on 668 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 5: it and just tipped it loose and kind of is 669 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 5: what it is. 670 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, and the rest is history. 671 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 2: As they said, all right, let's take another break, we'll 672 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,640 Speaker 2: come back.

By seven on Wednesday, seven o'clock Wednesday 737 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 2: six on Tuesdays, I'm very hesitant to do this. 738 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 3: I'm very because I'm worried about you Grimmer. I'm worried 739 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 3: about you Grimmer in this segment, for this long contest, 740 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 3: for this long contesting. 741 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 4: Hesitant to do it. 742 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 3: And it's not really about anything specifically. But what got 743 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 3: me on it, why I wanted to write it down 744 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 3: was I was watching some clip that the Lakers TV 745 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 3: broadcast had and Robert Ory and James Worthy we're talking 746 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 3: about Luca and I think the Lakers had just lost, 747 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 3: and one of the things that Luca had, you know, 748 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 3: had done, was he missed a bunch of shots. And 749 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 3: Robert Ory was like, you know what I don't like 750 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 3: about Luca. He's looking for fouls. He's not even looking 751 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 3: to shoot, he's not even looking to score, He's just 752 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 3: looking to get the call. That's where you're going to 753 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 3: stay out of this one. Remember for a minute. But 754 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 3: I've been on this for a while. 755 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 4: Put me right in the cross here. Yeah yeah, yeah, 756 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 4: I cannot. 757 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 3: I'm not I know Grim's opinion, but I'm just curious 758 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 3: because it's something that i think definitely has changed in 759 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 3: the last I don't know, five or ten years at 760 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 3: the NBA level for sure with SGA. And I'll never 761 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 3: back off my stance there. I was going to say, 762 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 3: you should worry about yourself. I know that, but I'm curious, like, 763 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 3: when did you start to see this evolve into And 764 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 3: there's there's times where players aren't even looking to score anymore. 765 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:33,719 Speaker 3: They just want to get to the line, and they 766 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 3: want to fool the officials and they want to do whatever. 767 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 3: And when did you notice it or how do you 768 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 3: kind of deal with it or process it? Or am 769 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 3: I just overreacting to what I'm seeing. No, I mean 770 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 3: I'll start by saying this. I will say it, no 771 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 3: promise saying it to me. It's one of the worst 772 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 3: things in basketball, right, thank you, thank you. I've always 773 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 3: hated it. 774 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 5: I think now obviously people want more scoring, and I 775 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 5: get it, but these these you really take skill out 776 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 5: of the game. When you're just all out on these 777 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 5: players to just launch, you know, into the defense to 778 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 5: force the action, and you're really putting the defense in 779 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 5: a position where there's nothing they can do. You just 780 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:10,719 Speaker 5: wanted to get out of the way, you know, like, 781 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 5: what what do you want my guy. 782 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 4: To do there? 783 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 5: I don't like that. I personally think there should be 784 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 5: just more no calls, you know. Sometimes I think officials 785 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 5: to feel like they have to put a whistle on 786 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 5: it all the time when there's contact and a lot 787 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 5: of time to think the best play is to just let. 788 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 4: Those things, you know. 789 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 5: I think letting letting those plays go no call more 790 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 5: of those, you know, when you can clearly see the 791 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 5: offense is just trying to initiate it. 792 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 4: Now, you've got to do a great job. 793 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 5: And we teach it every day to you know, we'd 794 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 5: call it hands to the lights or keeping your hands 795 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 5: away and you know you can be strong with your 796 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 5: chest and whatever on a guy. I actually think it 797 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 5: helps the game more because you think about if you 798 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 5: watch the NBA and even at our level now, if 799 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 5: a guy drives it in and he kind of flails 800 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 5: or launches and they miss a shot at the rim 801 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 5: and they fall down or whatever because they're flopping and 802 00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 5: the other. 803 00:32:58,040 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 4: Team gets the rebound. 804 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 5: It's a ass break the other way right numbers, and 805 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 5: I think that's what the fans want to see. They 806 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 5: don't want to see somebody going to the line twenty 807 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 5: six times flopping around out there. 808 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 4: I don't like it. 809 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 5: I wish it was something that they could change and 810 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 5: they could penalize. I think some of there egregious ones 811 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,479 Speaker 5: they should call foul on the offense. You know, we 812 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 5: just played a guy, uh and again I'm not trying that, 813 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 5: you know, kicks out his legs on every shot. 814 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 4: I don't like that play. 815 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 5: I just think it's a bad play and I wish 816 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 5: we could like do a better job of getting that 817 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 5: out of our game. 818 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 4: So there I said it. Well, it's be unprofessional. 819 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 3: I could hug you right now because that's what That's 820 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 3: what I've said in the NBA for sure. I think 821 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 3: it's the biggest problem they have. And whether it's SGA 822 00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 3: or James Harden or Luca, it just doesn't feel like 823 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 3: basketball to me. And I know, in terms of you know, 824 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 3: defensive flopping. Not to say anything about a team that 825 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 3: might be coming here this week, historically they took that, 826 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 3: but they took that out of the game, right, or 827 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 3: they tried to at least with the flopping rule defensively. 828 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 3: So and you see a lot of people do the 829 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 3: whole flop thing. 830 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 4: Get up. 831 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 3: The officials will do it, fans will do it, coaches 832 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 3: will do it. So I think they tried to do 833 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:09,959 Speaker 3: that defensively, but now it's almost gone to the offensive side, 834 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 3: and I don't know what we do. 835 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 5: Officials have done a much better job with the defensive 836 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 5: First of all, you know, you can't taking a second 837 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 5: as a secondary defender. Taking a charge is almost gone 838 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 5: from our game. Now that's made it a better game. 839 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 5: You know, it's got to be the primary defender taking 840 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 5: a charge. So they've done a good job cleaning that up. 841 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:28,880 Speaker 5: I think the offensive one is next, you know. And 842 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,399 Speaker 5: then having said that, though, you know, there's an art 843 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 5: to getting to the free throw line. There is and 844 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 5: guys want to like hey, at the end of the day, 845 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 5: they want to win, and if they think that they 846 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:38,920 Speaker 5: can get to the line, and there's some guys who 847 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,440 Speaker 5: are really good at it, but it does it drives 848 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 5: me crazy on the guys who flop and jump into 849 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,240 Speaker 5: the defense. And hopefully we can just find that happy 850 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 5: medium somewhere, and again, I wish more of those were 851 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:50,240 Speaker 5: just play ons. 852 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 3: When I see like highlights from traveling basketball games and 853 00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 3: a seven year old's coming across on a pick and 854 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 3: roll and acts like his head's been you know, snapped back, 855 00:34:58,200 --> 00:34:59,760 Speaker 3: I go, I think we've lost the plot, Meko. 856 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 4: I think we are seeing that down there, and. 857 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 3: Not like our kids aren't talented enough to do it. 858 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,799 Speaker 3: No shade on our kids, but I have people get 859 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 3: videos on social media, like you see eight year olds 860 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 3: that are coming off screens and pretending, you know, like 861 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:16,439 Speaker 3: they got just blast. That's tough, but that's what because 862 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,320 Speaker 3: they're watching the big kids, right, they're watching the adults. 863 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 4: So I'm glad you're on my side, and I know 864 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 4: where you. 865 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 5: Are at your kids shooting like thirty footers off the 866 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 5: dribble like staff too. 867 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:27,320 Speaker 4: They see that. Well, that's how they warm. 868 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,440 Speaker 3: Up, right when you tell them go get go, get go, 869 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 3: get shots up, you know, for five minutes while the 870 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 3: coaches figure out what we're going to do. Yeah, they 871 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 3: start just jacking it from half court and then you 872 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 3: got to blow the whistle and start. 873 00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's there's not a lot of form shooting going on. 874 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 4: Right now.

Maybe maybe the NCAA should look at that. 879 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 2: But I agree with you. Play on is a great call. Yep, 880 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,839 Speaker 2: play on is an outstanding call and you don't need 881 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 2: to reward people for that.

I mean, 997 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 5: there's no it's hard to kind of I don't even 998 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,040 Speaker 5: know how I want to say this, but it's it's 999 00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 5: a big game. I mean, the guys know it a 1000 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 5: big rivalry game. They've had a great program, you know, 1001 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 5: for years, I mean since Bo and Greg. I've known 1002 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:11,800 Speaker 5: Greg for a long time. He does a terrific job. 1003 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 5: They played really well on both ends of the floor. 1004 00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 5: They're obviously, I think, playing their best basketball the year. 1005 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,439 Speaker 5: They played very well against UCLA the other day, and 1006 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 5: to go into Michigan and win and play the way 1007 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:25,520 Speaker 5: that they did, especially on the offensive end, was really impressive. 1008 00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:27,800 Speaker 5: And you know, they shoot it from all five spots. 1009 00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:29,800 Speaker 5: I think that's what makes it really tricky. Their biggs 1010 00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:32,760 Speaker 5: can all shoot the three they can roll to the basket. 1011 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 5: They have two dynamic guards, you know, and Boyd and Blackwell. 1012 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:37,719 Speaker 5: I'm really familiar with Nick Boyd. He was at you know, 1013 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:40,239 Speaker 5: San Diego State last year, so we played against him 1014 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:41,640 Speaker 5: and know what he's all about. 1015 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:42,919 Speaker 4: So yeah, they're a really good team. 1016 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,920 Speaker 5: But it's life in the big ten guys, you know, 1017 00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,920 Speaker 5: so excited to get back after it tomorrow. I think 1018 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,440 Speaker 5: we're gonna have a great crowd and our guys will 1019 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 5: be fired up and ready to give their all. 1020 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:55,720 Speaker 3: How different offensively are they now from maybe the Gregor 1021 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:57,879 Speaker 3: for the Bo Ryan version where I think every high 1022 00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:00,120 Speaker 3: school in Wisconsin is running some type of the swing 1023 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:03,399 Speaker 3: offense and they're trading towels when they suck, right, That's 1024 00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,200 Speaker 3: the impact that they've had there. But Kirk Penny came 1025 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:07,920 Speaker 3: a year or two ago and I think kind of 1026 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:10,000 Speaker 3: switched the things up offensively. And now he's not with 1027 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,480 Speaker 3: them anymore. But it seems like that's been different. If 1028 00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:14,560 Speaker 3: people haven't watched the Badgers in a few years. 1029 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean they you know, they've completely changed offensive philosophy. 1030 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 5: They play a lot faster now, they're running you know, 1031 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,319 Speaker 5: what started out is kind of European ball screen continuity. 1032 00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 5: A lot of teams are running a variation of it. 1033 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:27,520 Speaker 5: I think what makes them so good too, is their 1034 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 5: bigs can shoot, so you know, they really put you 1035 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 5: in hard spacing positions. They do a great job moving 1036 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:36,200 Speaker 5: the ball, much like a lot of teams, no matter 1037 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:38,799 Speaker 5: how you cover it, whether you switch hard heads, whatever 1038 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:40,640 Speaker 5: it is, they know what to do with the with 1039 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 5: the ball and put so much pressure on you with again, 1040 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 5: the ability to shoot the ball at every position that's 1041 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 5: really spreads you out defensively. But yeah, it looks a 1042 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:51,840 Speaker 5: lot different than the than the old swing, and a 1043 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,040 Speaker 5: lot of it's just the pace of play. And you know, 1044 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 5: they can hang ninety on you in a hurry if 1045 00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:58,080 Speaker 5: you're not ready. You know, the old teams, you know, 1046 00:42:58,160 --> 00:42:59,799 Speaker 5: didn't really do a lot in transition. 1047 00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:02,719 Speaker 4: These guys will. So they do a great job. 1048 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 5: I like the way that they that they play and 1049 00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 5: that they go about their business. But I don't love it, 1050 00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:11,960 Speaker 5: nor should you, and I never will, nor should you 1051 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:15,359 Speaker 5: that I agree. Yeah, when you when you look at 1052 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:18,439 Speaker 5: what they what they bring as well, it's funny as 1053 00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:21,040 Speaker 5: the seasons go, there's ebbs and flows of the season, 1054 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 5: even within your you know within when within the Gopher season, 1055 00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 5: you look, you had you won five straight right before that, 1056 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 5: maybe there were a couple of. 1057 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:31,040 Speaker 2: Games that you know, you weren't totally thrilled with. And 1058 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 2: now you got a team like Michigan, right they're beating 1059 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 2: people by thirty and forty and everyone says this is 1060 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 2: going to be one of the great teams. And they 1061 00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 2: still probably will you know, put their mark on the season. 1062 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:41,560 Speaker 2: But then they life in the Big Ten. They go 1063 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:43,279 Speaker 2: to to Penn State as a I think it was 1064 00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,719 Speaker 2: like twenty six point favorite or something went by. 1065 00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:48,200 Speaker 4: Was it two? And then it was closed? 1066 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:49,360 Speaker 5: Was a little bit there, one a little bit more, 1067 00:43:49,400 --> 00:43:51,360 Speaker 5: but it was it was it was I think. 1068 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 2: A two point game late and then come home and Wisconsin, 1069 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,080 Speaker 2: who what two three weeks ago they were kind of 1070 00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:59,160 Speaker 2: meandering through a little bit of a of a no 1071 00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:01,319 Speaker 2: man's land, and how all of a sudden, as you said, 1072 00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:04,600 Speaker 2: they put it together. But that's the the ebbs and 1073 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:06,880 Speaker 2: flows of a Big Ten basketball season. 1074 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 5: It's ebbs and flows of your team season. It's ebb 1075 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 5: and flowed two of individual players. I mean, basketball is 1076 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:13,239 Speaker 5: so different than football, and there's you know, there's so 1077 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 5: many possessions, so many more games, so many more variables, 1078 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,719 Speaker 5: and you know, sometimes guys, you know, they're they're they're 1079 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 5: they're hot for a while shooting it, and maybe they're 1080 00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 5: they're not, and you know, it's just it's it's amazing 1081 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 5: how that works. And sometimes the key to having a 1082 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:27,480 Speaker 5: great season is to find ways to win when you 1083 00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:30,359 Speaker 5: don't have your fastball. You know, typically maybe you don't 1084 00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,239 Speaker 5: have your a game, but you still find a way 1085 00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:33,520 Speaker 5: to win games. 1086 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:35,439 Speaker 4: I think is sometimes the trick. 1087 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 5: And no, Wisconsin, at least this last week is playing 1088 00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,480 Speaker 5: their best basketball. But that's okay. We have no control 1089 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 5: over how they are in their little ebb and flow 1090 00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:47,160 Speaker 5: or rhythm or whatever. You know, I have no control 1091 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 5: over that. The only thing we control is what we're 1092 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:51,799 Speaker 5: going to do Tuesday night, and so we'll be ready 1093 00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:53,200 Speaker 5: to get after it and we'll compete. 1094 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:55,880 Speaker 3: You have anything else on this particular Badger team, Grimmer 1095 00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 3: that you want to get into, No, okay, because I 1096 00:44:58,000 --> 00:44:59,520 Speaker 3: should have done it in the stretch for but I 1097 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,440 Speaker 3: wanted to do the foulbating thing. But part of the 1098 00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:03,839 Speaker 3: thing I love to do with you, as you know, 1099 00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:05,680 Speaker 3: is go back in time to when you were here 1100 00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:08,160 Speaker 3: in ninety two to ninety six. Right, so the Badgers 1101 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 3: of that ILK that was Stu Jackson was coaching stan 1102 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:13,920 Speaker 3: Van Gundy for a couple of years, and that Michael 1103 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 3: Finley was their stud which is, you know, crazy to 1104 00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:18,360 Speaker 3: think about Rashard Griffith. I think, what do you remember 1105 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:19,800 Speaker 3: about those groups in those games? 1106 00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:23,800 Speaker 5: Just what you said, you know, Rashard Griffith, stan Van Gundy, 1107 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,520 Speaker 5: Stu Jackson, I mean. And then I remember the old 1108 00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:29,760 Speaker 5: field House in Madison, I wondered, Yeah, And I remember, 1109 00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:32,319 Speaker 5: if I remember this right, you had to walk from 1110 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:35,480 Speaker 5: the court like through the beer garden like to get 1111 00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:37,399 Speaker 5: to your locker room and they would rope it off. 1112 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 5: And can you just imagine that for a second, going 1113 00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 5: through at halftime in Madison through the beer garden. 1114 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:46,799 Speaker 4: What could possibly go wrong? Go wrong? 1115 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, but I kind of miss it. Actually, 1116 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:53,759 Speaker 5: it was kind of fun, right, just get him all. 1117 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:56,920 Speaker 5: I think that was pretty fun. And I think I 1118 00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 5: remember that year we swept Wisconsin one of those years 1119 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 5: at the end and we went down to Madison and won. 1120 00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:05,560 Speaker 5: And again, you know, I I there was a time 1121 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,319 Speaker 5: we were live. There was a time where you know, 1122 00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:10,800 Speaker 5: there was a lot of different reality of both. 1123 00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:12,319 Speaker 4: Basketball programs for sure. 1124 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:14,799 Speaker 5: Yeah, there was a time and I was, I was there, 1125 00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 5: I was I was part of that. And again they 1126 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 5: do a great job and and all that stuff like that, 1127 00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:21,600 Speaker 5: but you know, we're here to try to change that, 1128 00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:24,319 Speaker 5: that narrative and things don't stay the same forever, you know, 1129 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:27,840 Speaker 5: and it's our job to change that. And so I 1130 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 5: think Minnesota's lost sixteen straight times to Wisconsin and basketball 1131 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:33,560 Speaker 5: that stings. 1132 00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:36,400 Speaker 4: For sure. I'd be in the beer garden, you know. 1133 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,600 Speaker 2: I was gonna ask we attempted on the way to 1134 00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 2: the locker room to stop off for a beverage maybe 1135 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:42,680 Speaker 2: after the game. 1136 00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:44,919 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, they probably wouldn't have minded there too, 1137 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:47,000 Speaker 5: you know. And what do they call it mad town? 1138 00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:49,960 Speaker 5: Is that what we call it there or whatever? I 1139 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:53,360 Speaker 5: don't know, But anyway, I'm looking forward to to Tuesday 1140 00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:55,439 Speaker 5: again with a lot of respect. It's a game you're 1141 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:57,400 Speaker 5: looking forward to, your kidney, I mean, Tuesday night in 1142 00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:01,959 Speaker 5: the barn, Wisconsin. We should have a great crowd, and yeah, 1143 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:03,560 Speaker 5: we know we're going to get their best, but it's 1144 00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 5: our job to give them our best. 1145 00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 2: From a standpoint, you mentioned Cage playing like every minute 1146 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:12,040 Speaker 2: of every game, Bobby Dirkin played all forty five the 1147 00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,200 Speaker 2: other night, and I guess I ask you this and 1148 00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:15,960 Speaker 2: you probably roll your eyes every time I do. But 1149 00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:19,320 Speaker 2: making sure your guys are you know, have their legs abottom, 1150 00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:21,840 Speaker 2: did you see anything the other night that indicated that 1151 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:23,640 Speaker 2: they weren't or were you good with everything? 1152 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:29,120 Speaker 5: Well, I mean listen, anytime the guys have to play 1153 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:31,360 Speaker 5: forty five minutes, I'm sure they felt it, you know, 1154 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:33,439 Speaker 5: after the game, and they felt it the next day. 1155 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:36,160 Speaker 5: But no, man, we're gonna I mean, you know, we 1156 00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:39,879 Speaker 5: got a three hour grinder coming up after this today.
