1
00:00:01,639 --> 00:00:04,000
Speaker 1: Go, I see some people already in full blown panic

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 1: comode after losing Game one last night.

3
00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:06,440
Speaker 2: Really before.

4
00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:09,040
Speaker 1: Well, by the way, I look this up that sixty

5
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 1: eight percent of the last twenty five World Series champions

6
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 1: lost their opening day and started the year.

7
00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:17,800
Speaker 3: Oh is that a real stat?

8
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, I just totally made that up, but I

9
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,159
Speaker 1: thought for a second maybe it'd make it feel a

10
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 1: little I mean, you know.

11
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 2: What, it might be. It might be true. I can't

12
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 2: deny it.

13
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: I just can't confirm it either, So look, I mean whatever,

14
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 1: you know, I tend to obviously kind of overreact to

15
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 1: sometimes the positives a little bit more than do the negatives.

16
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 2: After one game.

17
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,279
Speaker 1: You know, my deal man on this whole baseball thing,

18
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: same play the first couple of months behind a curtain.

19
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:45,840
Speaker 1: Wake me up on the first of June and tell

20
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 1: me how they're doing. Yep, right, maybe just play seven

21
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: games at a time, Wake me up and tell me

22
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 1: how they did.

23
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 2: Blah blah blah. There's nothing worse.

24
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: And I honestly don't know how people in radio do

25
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: it that do this, and I don't know how the

26
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 1: fans even deal with it, doing a postgame show after

27
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 1: every single Mariner game and like a calling, are you

28
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: kidding me?

29
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 4: And does his YouTube postgame show every game and like

30
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 4: it's that would just bog me down over the course

31
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 4: of one hundred and sixty two games, off every single

32
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 4: storyline just not come on.

33
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 2: Be brutal, absolutely brutal.

34
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: I mean, the one thing that I took away from

35
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: last night's game, You know what the most important thing

36
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 1: for me from last night's game is, honestly, I hope

37
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: the kid that ran the bases is okay because he

38
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 1: fell on his ass.

39
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 2: You see that he turned his ankle or whatever. That's

40
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:33,679
Speaker 2: all I care about.

41
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 1: Never mind Gabe Spier getting lit up, never mind Logan

42
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 1: Gilbert having a kind of you know way kind of day.

43
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 1: But I'm more, can we get an update on the kid?

44
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 2: How's the kid?

45
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 1: I mean, it was great that his dad came out

46
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: there and picked them up and you know, loaded them

47
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 1: around the bases and all that tears.

48
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 2: Man, he may have twisted his ankle. Do we got

49
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 2: to check it on the kid. Nobody's talking about the kid?

50
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 2: How's the kid?

51
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 4: When the dad came it was the dad right who

52
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 4: I believe so and ran around second base to home

53
00:01:58,480 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 4: with him.

54
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 3: That was one of the most emotional moments like.

55
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 4: Started because obviously there's the usual pleasantries in the usual

56
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 4: all the you know who in the ha, but that

57
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 4: was so such an emotional moment to get a kickstart.

58
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 4: Mike was emotional like that.

59
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: Well, kudos to the Mariners because that has really turned

60
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: into a pretty cool opening day thing. You know, they

61
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: use the Force Gump theme, they've used that forever. As

62
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 1: the kids running around the bases. Everyone loves it. They

63
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: all cheer them on. So somebody's got to give us

64
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 1: an update on how the kid's doing.

65
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 2: By the way, But yeah, I mean.

66
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,360
Speaker 1: You lose six to four, maybe a couple of questionable

67
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 1: bullpen decisions, but I think that's gonna you know, every

68
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 1: time you lose a game and the bullpen plays a part,

69
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 1: there's gonna be question marks about that.

70
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,519
Speaker 2: And you know George Kirby going today.

71
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously you get to a point where you

72
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 1: can lose enough games to start a year or like

73
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Braves did a year ago, by the way, Yeah,

74
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 1: where you can start to think, Okay, this is kind

75
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,959
Speaker 1: of developing into a big fat hole that we're not

76
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: going to be able to climb out of. But we

77
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,639
Speaker 1: are nowhere near that today, so we'll see what happens tonight.

78
00:02:58,760 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 2: We got a short one.

79
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: We got sweets team basketball, Arizona Purdue, Illinois, Iowa are

80
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: moving on tonight. Maybe the best one of the first

81
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 1: couple of games here in the Sweet sixteen.

82
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 2: Saint John's and Duke will go.

83
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: At four to ten taken on the winner of the

84
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:17,520
Speaker 1: Michigan State Utah game Alabama Michigan Tennessee, Iowa State obviously

85
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 1: later on this afternoon. But the Tiger Woods thing is

86
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 1: obviously something people were keeping.

87
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 2: An eye on.

88
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: Man once again involved in the car crash. They're saying

89
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 1: he flipped his car, no injuries, he's okay, he blew

90
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: triples arrows and the breathalyzer, but he showed impairment, and

91
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: the police officers on site asked him to submit to

92
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: a you're analysis test and he said no, and so

93
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: they arrested him on suspicion of THEUI.

94
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 2: So it's kind of becoming a sad thing.

95
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 1: Where I think a lot more people now Jackson are

96
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: starting to focus on the things that Tiger Woods didn't

97
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: do versus the things that he did do.

98
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 2: I mean, the guy's won fifteen majors.

99
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: You can argue, at minimum he's the second greatest player

100
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: of all time. Maybe I think he is the greatest

101
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: because I think the competition's that it was fifty years ago.

102
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 2: But when you think about tiger.

103
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: Woods now, a lot of people are starting to think

104
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: about how he kind of fell apart after beating Roco

105
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: and that playoff at Tory Pines at the US Open,

106
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:15,119
Speaker 1: the car crashes, the personal problems, the issues with obviously

107
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 1: Elin Nordegren, things like that, things like today. It's a

108
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 1: tragic story because now more people were talking about what

109
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: he's not doing than what he did do, and that's

110
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 1: that's disappointing.

111
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 4: It is, I think, I mean a lot of it.

112
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 4: You know, you bring I have to say, bring on yourself.

113
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 4: But really it's sort of the conversation, at least for me,

114
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 4: you know, and my perspective on Tiger Woods is what

115
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 4: could have been? And you know, as I'm kind of

116
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 4: growing up in the heyday of Tiger Woods, it's sort

117
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 4: of like this guy is going to go on to

118
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 4: be by far the greatest golfer of all time, and

119
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 4: then fast forward to today, it's just like, damn, like that

120
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 4: that dropped off a cliff real quick, and yeah, the

121
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 4: conversation is there.

122
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 3: But I don't know if it's sad for me.

123
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 4: It's just sort of just like, man, like, why did

124
00:04:59,920 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 4: you you have to do all of these things xyz

125
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 4: to screw up your career?

126
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 2: Hire a driver, dude, Yeah, I'm a hire a driver.

127
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 1: I mean, he just needs he needs someone there to

128
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,320
Speaker 1: get after him a little bit. I don't know if

129
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 1: that's his agents. I don't know if that's his you know,

130
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 1: family or whatever. I mean, obviously his parents are both gone.

131
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 1: But it's a sad story. So we're keeping an eye

132
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: on that to see where this thing goes. But I

133
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: know a lot of people were looking forward to potentially

134
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 1: seeing Tiger Woods compete at the Masters. He just played

135
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 1: Tuesday night in the TGL and they had like a

136
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: million people that tuned in to watch that thing as

137
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: they're playing golf on a freaking simulator for crying out loud,

138
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,359
Speaker 1: A million people tuned in because of Tiger Woods. I

139
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,719
Speaker 1: still think he is still today among the biggest draws

140
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 1: in sports, even at his age early fifties, doesn't have

141
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: the obviously skill that he used to have. He's not

142
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 1: gonna go out and start dominating the PGA tour, but

143
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: he still is, no question, one of the biggest draws

144
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 1: in sports. All Right, we got a lot to get

145
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 1: to and not a lot of time to do a

146
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 1: Pat Chun you dub ad. We're gonna chat with him

147
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 1: next segment, looking for a new sponsor at Husky Stadium.

148
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 2: How far away from that are they?

149
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: There was this story that the Huskies We're gonna take

150
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 1: less than Oregon in a private equity deal with the

151
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:10,160
Speaker 1: Big Ten?

152
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 2: Is that true?

153
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 1: And if it's if it is true, why would Washington

154
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,160
Speaker 1: agreed or something like that. We'll get an update from

155
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 1: Pat Chun on a lot of different issues around, you dub,

156
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 1: and then we'll set the lineups and get going for

Speaker 6: Well? Good?

179
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 7: Just for the record, my preference would have been to

180
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 7: be in Sacramento with our women's basketball team for the

181
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 7: Sweet fixteam, but obviously we had a heartbreaker last weekend

Speaker 7: in four Art. But good to be with you, and

183
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:41,840

184
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 7: to the game Saturday, but I will be respectful of

185
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 7: my fellow Seattle ends here and be in neutral colors.

186
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, if anything good happens to the Guardians, just make

187
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: sure you zip it and celebrate when you get home.

188
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 1: All right, But Pat, Pat, let me give you a

189
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 1: chance here to do something I know you've always wanted

190
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 1: to do, and then to put yourself in softy shoes.

191
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 2: All right. I know a lot of people.

192
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: Wake up every day thinking, God, I wish I could

193
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 1: just walk a mile and softy shoes. And I'm going

194
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 1: to give you a chance here because I want to

195
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 1: kind of turn the tables on you and do something

196
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: different here two years on the job at Washington. If

197
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 1: you were me doing this radio program, what would you

198
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: be saying about the job Pat Chun's done two years in?

199
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:23,679
Speaker 2: Is the UB athletic director?

200
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 7: Well, if I were softy, I would say, this isn't

201
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 7: about me, This isn't about the AFI director. This is

202
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 7: about the totality of what's been going on here at

203
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 7: the U DUB and you know our student ends. Since

204
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 7: you're giving me the platform, it starts with what our

205
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 7: student athletes have done academically. We continue to set records.

206
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 7: I think our cumulative our GPA last last quarter was

207
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 7: a three point five. And you know the performance of

208
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 7: our teams in spite of all the all the all

209
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 7: the the you know the disaster that this college athletics

210
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,559
Speaker 7: environment is I mean, you know, you see it where

211
00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 7: teams are winning literally national championships, Big ten championships, you know,

212
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 7: competing at the highest levels. You know, you know, it's

213
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 7: been a you know, it's been fun watching, you know,

214
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 7: watching Washington do what Washington supposed to do for an

215
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 7: a life standpoint.

216
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 1: You know, you're just a politician at heart in some ways. Man,

217
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: it really is unbelievable. I mean, I gave you, I

218
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 1: gave you a layup for God's sakes, you know, I mean, man,

219
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 1: come on, well, Pat pats with us on the air,

220
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: Pat Sean, and there's a lot of stuff to go

221
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: over here. The stadium sponsorship is kind of a top

222
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 1: of my mind because we know that you just got

223
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: done a new deal with Alaska. They're going to continue

224
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: with the basketball arena. But where are we at with

225
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 1: the football stadium sponsorship? When do you think we'll hear

226
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: some news on a new sponsor for Husky Stadium?

227
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 7: Well, I mean, the nice thing is we're out to

228
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 7: market with it. We've had some really really thoughtful, productive

229
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 7: conversations with with multiple entities, and you know, we're committed

230
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 7: to going through a process and finding the right partner.

231
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 7: I think Alaska is a good example of what a

232
00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 7: great partnership looks like on both sides. You know, the

233
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,000
Speaker 7: fact that that they wanted to continue our relationship for

234
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 7: another decade and just says speaks volumes of of of

235
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 7: you know, what the two entities have been able to

236
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 7: do together, you know, for the last decade. So there's

237
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 7: no timeline other than this, other than the fact that

238
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 7: we know we need to get it done. But like

239
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 7: I said, we were happy with all the conversations that

240
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 7: we've had, and you know, the world's changed since the

241
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 7: last since since the last time.

242
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 6: We went to market with our stadium.

243
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 7: I mean, as you you know, we're in the Big

244
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 7: ten now, which means, you know, it's the footprint is

245
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 7: a lot bigger than what our old conference was, and

246
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:35,719
Speaker 7: you know, it's it's you know, we've been to the

247
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 7: playoffs a couple of times, and you know, people firmly

248
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 7: understand what the greatest setting in college football is and

249
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 7: that's right here on Mount Lay.

250
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 6: So you know, we're actively doing it.

251
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,319
Speaker 7: We're excited about the potential, but you know, obviously we

252
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 7: know we got to get to finish finish line ason

253
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 7: as a game yeah.

254
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 2: You mentioned no timeline.

255
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: Is there a chance, I know you guys are getting

256
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 1: new turf at some point right this offseason at Husky Stadium.

257
00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 1: Is there a chance that you could open the year

258
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 1: without a new sponsor or do you feel like that's

259
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: probably unlikely.

260
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 7: I don't want to put us in a box one

261
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 7: or the other. The goal is always to find the

262
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 7: right sponsor and if it take, whatever time it takes,

263
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 7: it takes. And like I said, I'm very encouraged with

264
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 7: the dialogue we have and to see where we end up.

265
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, you and I have talked many many times before.

266
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 1: Patch Young Uwad with us on the radio show was

267
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,800
Speaker 1: hired two years ago. Yesterday you dub about having to

268
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 1: just be creative with all these revenue streams, right, you

269
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 1: got to find something that nobody else has access to

270
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: that can kind of make Washington unique.

271
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 2: And this really isn't unique.

272
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: But there's the story that college football teams will be

273
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 1: allowed to be selling advertisements, patches on their jerseys to sponsors,

274
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: things like that.

275
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 2: Give us a take on where you're at with that progress.

276
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 7: I'm impressed we've started this interview with the business of

277
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,079
Speaker 7: college That is another Marquee asset. We we're calling the

278
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 7: Marquee asset that we're in the marketplace with and very

279
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 7: different than the stadium. It's a new product that we

280
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 7: can offer to the marketplace. And as and as you

281
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 7: would imagine, those conversations have been really spirited and.

282
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 6: Really really really going well.

283
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 7: And once again, you know it, we just want to

284
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 7: make sure we end up with the right partner. The

285
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 7: last thing we want is to get into a financial

286
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 7: contractual agreement, which we know is a piece of it.

287
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,359
Speaker 6: But we want a deep relationship because.

288
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 7: The reality is Washington Athletics isn't going anywhere. Uh And

289
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 7: we want we want a long term relationship with with

290
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,080
Speaker 7: a company that whoever we put on you know, in

291
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 7: and around the stadium and whatever we end up with

292
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 7: our jerseys, we want a long term relationship. But those

293
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 7: those are two critical opportunities for us, uh an important

294
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,719
Speaker 7: opportunities to make sure that you know, we get those

295
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 7: of the finish line.

296
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, Pat chums with us, and you know, kind

297
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,000
Speaker 1: of I mean, I think sarcastically talking about the you know,

298
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 1: opening up the conversation with the business of college sports,

299
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 1: which really to me in kind of a lot of

300
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: ways is all that matters right now?

301
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 2: I mean, has this in your mind? Uh?

302
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: I think I don't want to put words in your mouth,

303
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 1: and if I do, I apologize.

304
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 2: Please correct me.

305
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 1: You just referred to college athletics as kind of a

306
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: disaster right now?

307
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 2: Is it all about? Is it really all about money?

308
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 1: And how much you can pay players, and how much

309
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: you can raise from your fan base and how much

310
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 1: you can sell and sponsorships When you wake up every day,

311
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 1: do you believe that now more than ever?

312
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:17,720
Speaker 7: Pat Well, in our current format or a current environment

313
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 7: that that doesn't have you know, that has minimal rules

314
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 7: and minimal regulations, and you know, and just no continuity

315
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 7: from state to state because of disparate state laws. Money

316
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 7: is the most important driver right now. But I will

317
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 7: say that the work hasn't changed. I mean, the work

318
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 7: is still and you see it done at the highest level,

319
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 7: share with the coaches we have on our campus is

320
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 7: still trying to get young people to put the team's

321
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 7: goals ahead of individual goals and let that serve as

322
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 7: a lesson and something that helps them for the rest

323
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 7: of their lives, whether it's family, business, community, whatever it

324
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 7: may be. So the work hasn't changed. I remind everyone

325
00:13:56,400 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 7: how how for a handful of our sports, why people

326
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 7: will choose to come to our campus has changed in

327
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 7: this environment, why they stay has changed. But the work

328
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:08,679
Speaker 7: and what needs to be done and what we're doing

329
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:10,440
Speaker 7: for young people in the form of the stages of

330
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 7: their life really hasn't changed. It's just really really hard

331
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 7: to do, a very different to do than it was,

332
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 7: even like you know, three or four years ago.

333
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 1: Pat Juhn with us Uwad, We're at Jimmy's on first

334
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 1: getting ready for a game two of four against the Guardians,

335
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: and Pat this millionaire's tax thing that's being kicked around

336
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: and not not officially official yet but feels like it

337
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 1: will be. We talked about that a lot and kind

338
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 1: of how that could potentially impact professional sports. How do

339
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 1: you think it would maybe negatively potentially impact Colwood sports

340
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 1: even locally with coaches and players accepting NIL deals from

341
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 1: other schools that may save them a bit more money

342
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 1: because the millionaire's tax may not exist there.

343
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 2: What's your take on that.

344
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 7: Well, it takes away an advantage for us. The timing is,

345
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 7: you know, the timing is tough. If it gets approved

346
00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 7: for college sports, i'd argue the timing and stuff for

347
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 7: a city trying to get to get an NBA franchise here,

348
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 7: all these little things do add up and do make

349
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:12,200
Speaker 7: a difference. So you know, I like, it's not an

350
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 7: anomaly to DEVI State Income Tact. You know, a lot

351
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 7: of states have it, but you know, it's one of

352
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 7: those things that you know, you know there you know,

353
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 7: there's so many benefits, uh in terms of living in Seattle,

354
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 7: but there's also a cost of living. And you know,

355
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 7: keep in mind we're in a conference that that's based

356
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 7: and really rooted in the Midwest, so you know, some

357
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 7: of us on the West coast, uh, you know, to

358
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 7: recruit great coaches and great young people to our campus.

359
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:39,920
Speaker 7: You know, it's a different equation than the ship ads,

360
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 7: you know, to the overall you know, wherever we end up.

361
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 7: This is just this is another bearable that we have

362
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 7: to include and how we make decisions.

363
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 5: Right.

364
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 1: Well, Pat, John's with us, and Pat, I think a

365
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: lot's been made. As you know about the travel in

366
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,120
Speaker 1: the Big Ten. Football not as big a deal because

367
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 1: you played you know what maybe a couple of games

368
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 1: a year you know, out there Midwest East Coast. But

369
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 1: for basketball, that absolutely is having an impact. Are you

370
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:07,120
Speaker 1: of the opinion that we could see whether sooner or later,

371
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 1: a regionalization of everything outside of football in the Big

372
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 1: Ten maybe go back to more West Coast based teams.

373
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 1: Keep football the way it is, but everything else gets

374
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: a bit of a break.

375
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 2: When it comes to.

376
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 7: Travel, well, I would say the travel is rigorous. But

377
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 7: on the opposite side of the coin, when you look

378
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 7: at our league and you see national champions in men's soccer, football,

379
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 7: you see what's happening in the men's basketball tournament, the

380
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 7: women's basketball tournament right now. I know there's other schools,

381
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 7: you know, Big ten one in wrestling, Big ten one

382
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 7: in you know, women's I say, I know, there's a

383
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 7: bunch of other sports. But the one by project of

384
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 7: that travel and the quality of this league is, you know,

385
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 7: as our teams go into the postseason, we are battle tested.

386
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 7: And I'll look no further than our men's soccer program.

387
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 7: You know, they were clearly battle tested traveling cross country

388
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:04,919
Speaker 7: by that by the time we got to the ncl

389
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,160
Speaker 7: A tournament. To do something no other program had done

390
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 7: in the history of that sport and win that on

391
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 7: the road has a lot to do with Jamie Clark

392
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 7: has more to do with the young men in our uniforms.

393
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 7: But the reality that was a battle tested team that

394
00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 7: got put in a pressure cooker and clearly thrived in

395
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 7: that pressure cooker. So that is the one positive in

396
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 7: all this in the highly competitive league where for the

397
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 7: overall health of the sports, Like you know, there's there's

398
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,359
Speaker 7: a better way to do it for a handful of sports,

399
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 7: and I think we have to figure that out. But

400
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 7: the problem is there's a better way to do football,

401
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 7: There's a better way to do menz and wos basketball

402
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 7: and us in an industry are nowhere near figuring that out.

403
00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 7: And you know, getting those sports in order because of

404
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,199
Speaker 7: their impact on revenue has to be is really you know,

405
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 7: the first order type of duty to try to figure out.

406
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,359
Speaker 1: Out Well, I know, I know Coogar fans in Oregon

407
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 1: State Beaver fans will love this next question because they've

408
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,719
Speaker 1: been warning me for years. You're eventually going to regret this.

409
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: You're kind of regret leaving the Pac twelve and going

410
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,919
Speaker 1: to the Big Ten. Are you sensing any regret at

411
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 1: all from people that you work with at Washington about

412
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 1: this move?

413
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 7: No, because the college sports has changed and really, I

414
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,239
Speaker 7: mean I've talked about it.

415
00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 6: You've talked about it.

416
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 7: You know, the beginning of the end of the PAC

417
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,560
Speaker 7: twelve was you know, fifteen years in the making. And

418
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 7: the reality is when the PAC twelve made decisions, strategic

419
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 7: decisions that ultimately failed and put them behind the Big

420
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,159
Speaker 7: ten in the SEC. I mean there's a time in

421
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,439
Speaker 7: the place where the Big ten and the PAC twelve

422
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 7: or PAC ten at the time were the only two,

423
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 7: were the two schools with the biggest TV contract and

424
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:47,159
Speaker 7: had the Rose Bowls. But time and change and you

425
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,160
Speaker 7: put the you got to make you know, and there's

426
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 7: a lot of people involved.

427
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 6: With that, more than commissioners.

428
00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 7: So we're college athletics have all evolved to because of

429
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 7: our inability to set rules, because of you know, all

430
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 7: these all these losses, and you know, whether it's the

431
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,680
Speaker 7: Supreme Court or state courts or local courts. I mean,

432
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 7: like there aren't really options other than to keep moving forward.

433
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,919
Speaker 7: And the way the world is right now is you

434
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:14,439
Speaker 7: have to be in the Big Ten or you have

435
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 7: to be in the Southeastern Conference. And you know, we're

436
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 7: fortunate that we're in the Big Ten Conference.

437
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 1: Do you think there's a good chance that the Big

438
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: ten the SEC are setting up to break away from

439
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 1: the NCAA by maybe the end of this decade.

440
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 7: Well I think that's the problem is I don't know

441
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 7: if the law will allow it because no creative monopoly.

442
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,080
Speaker 7: So I think I think we just have to be

443
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,359
Speaker 7: really smart about you know, I know this. There's you know,

444
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 7: the Score Act is still circulating in Congress that you know,

445
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 7: you know, I know the College afth ice has been

446
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 7: working for you know, really the better part of half

447
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,199
Speaker 7: this last decade to try to get congressional help, and

448
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,639
Speaker 7: it just hasn't happened. And I just know this that

449
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 7: this current environment that we're in, you know is I

450
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,719
Speaker 7: would hate using the word isn't sustainable. It's broken and

451
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 7: it keeps breaking even for there and we're going to

452
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 7: have to wrap our brains around like how do we

453
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 7: have a how do we have an environment that is

454
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:08,879
Speaker 7: that is, you know, conducive for long term health. Like

455
00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 7: look at you know, major League Baseball is you know,

456
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,880
Speaker 7: everybody knows in twenty seven when they're CBA expires, there's,

457
00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:17,920
Speaker 7: god of there's probably gonna be a long lockout, right

458
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 7: and they're they're they're trending we're trending to where they're

459
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,119
Speaker 7: at where there's a couple of major spenders, but you

460
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,879
Speaker 7: also need opponents to play and there's got to be

461
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,479
Speaker 7: something that that you know, and you know you're going

462
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 7: to be in a rock and a hard place, and

463
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 7: you know, we're we're an industry that's kind of in

464
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,160
Speaker 7: a rock and a hard place because we don't really

465
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 7: have the legal authority to do what we want to do.

466
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:39,679
Speaker 7: So then you've got to figure out what do we

467
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,159
Speaker 7: what can we do, and how do we make this

468
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:43,919
Speaker 7: thing work? And that's you know, that's really the challenge

469
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:45,719
Speaker 7: that we've all been working on at Washington and at

470
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:46,120
Speaker 7: the Big Ten.

471
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, Pat John's with us, you dow Ad and uh, look,

472
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 1: I mean there's been a lot of obviously conversations in

473
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,399
Speaker 1: the Big Ten about this personal equity deal and I

474
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,400
Speaker 1: don't know where it is right now. I've been told

475
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 1: it's been put on hold. I mean, if you want

476
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 1: to fill us in on where that's at, that's great.

477
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:03,560
Speaker 1: But then there's these reports that there's going to be

478
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 1: three tiers and that Washington's going to be in Tier three,

479
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,359
Speaker 1: taking less than the Oregon Ducks, for example, USC somebody

480
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 1: could stop you on the street and say, Pat, why

481
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:15,439
Speaker 1: would Washington ever agree to anything that gives them a

482
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 1: smaller cut than Oregon.

483
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:17,680
Speaker 2: What would you say to them?

484
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,439
Speaker 7: Well that I would sell on that that that was

485
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:25,639
Speaker 7: a investment partner in the Big ten and it's not

486
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 7: going to happen. And I would also say that I

487
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 7: was never in the camp that it was going to happen,

488
00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,199
Speaker 7: because you could sense that there was always going to

489
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 7: be at least one school that wasn't going to that

490
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,639
Speaker 7: wasn't wasn't going to agree with it. And to their credit,

491
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,880
Speaker 7: they were very transparent about that, right, Uh, and it's

492
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,359
Speaker 7: and and so you know, I don't, I don't. I

493
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 7: was always very very measured when talking about it because

494
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,240
Speaker 7: I just felt like, I think it just you just

495
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 7: knew that it was always going to be a big

496
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 7: hill toply, like anything, we have a responsibility to try

497
00:21:56,600 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 7: to figure out how to bridge this half share gap.

498
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,840
Speaker 7: Are half share gap is very different than the other

499
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 7: school that went in and a half share simply because

500
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 7: of I don't know the most politically way is the

501
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 7: best way to say it, but they have to night

502
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:11,639
Speaker 7: we don't this the best way to say it. So

503
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,159
Speaker 7: I mean as we looked at it, we we we

504
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 7: saw you know that with the president. You know, you

505
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:20,160
Speaker 7: look at what the positives are and what the challenges are.

506
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:21,959
Speaker 7: But the reality is it never went to a vote.

507
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 7: So it's a really a nothing.

508
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: Okay, So let me just make sure I'm on the

509
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:26,479
Speaker 1: same page as you. When you say it's not going

510
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 1: to happen. You mean the personal equity or the could

511
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 1: be private equity deal will not happen, or the idea

512
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:34,160
Speaker 1: of you taking less money than an Oregon for example,

513
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 1: won't happen.

514
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 7: No, for the part there was there was a there

515
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 7: was a tiered approach for what the investment could be

516
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 7: on each campus, and that deal isn't going to happen.

517
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 7: There's been no other discussions of of what you know,

518
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 7: unequal revenue sharing looks like. But I will tell you

519
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 7: as you know, as one of the schools in this conference,

520
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 7: in one of the biggest media markets, also being one

521
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 7: of the schools been to multiple college football playoffs, you know,

522
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:06,400
Speaker 7: we know exactly what has been earned at Washington and

523
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,119
Speaker 7: where that where that is, where that puts us on

524
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:09,680
Speaker 7: the food chain.

525
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, Pat, you mentioned Tina Langley women's basketball team falling

526
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,680
Speaker 1: short of just a sweet sixteen run great, great run

527
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:20,479
Speaker 1: by them. Ir regardless. If I'm right, I think Tina's

528
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 1: got one more year left on her deal. Could we

529
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:23,240
Speaker 1: see that extended soon?

530
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 7: You think she's got she's got three, but we're yeah,

531
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 7: we're working on that in real time.

532
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:30,440
Speaker 2: So good.

533
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 7: You know, our goal is to keep Tina here, and

534
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,120
Speaker 7: I mean the reality is is she's a great coach,

535
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:38,399
Speaker 7: She's an even better person.

536
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:40,879
Speaker 6: She's a husky, and.

537
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 7: We are all motivated to keep her a husky as

538
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 7: long as humanly possible.

539
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 1: Are you getting approached by other schools that want to

540
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:47,399
Speaker 1: talk with her?

541
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 6: Uh?

542
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 7: No, all my all my discussions with Tina are about

543
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 7: transfer portal, trying to figure out what next year is wrong,

544
00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 7: like like as you would imagine, all of our coaches

545
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 7: have to do a hard shift as students your seasons

546
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,479
Speaker 7: and for next year, and she is laser focused.

547
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 6: We are laser focused.

548
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 7: On on on on what next year looks like. And

549
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 7: I just we just know also that we have someone

550
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 7: pretty special Guaranteina, that we just want to make sure

551
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 7: is here for you know, for the for as long

552
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 7: as as long as she wants to be here.

553
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 1: Well, give us a take on yet and the football

554
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 1: team pad before you go, uh, what are you seeing

555
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,440
Speaker 1: right now that leads you to believe that the football

556
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,160
Speaker 1: team is going to take a big step forward and

557
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 1: maybe just maybe compete for you know Big ten title.

558
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 7: Well we got one on spring break this week, so

559
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 7: you know, the next phase of off season is spring ball,

560
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,679
Speaker 7: so that it'll be another important you know month for

561
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 7: us as we as as as we build toward next season.

562
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:48,679
Speaker 7: But you know, all the reports I'm getting and I

563
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,360
Speaker 7: get more romantic oldally from from staff or just from

564
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:55,160
Speaker 7: being around that building about how how you know, how

565
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 7: how how winter conditioning is gone. And I know it's

566
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 7: not an easy program to any stret for the imagination.

567
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,680
Speaker 7: So the fact that there's been so much positivity about

568
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:08,640
Speaker 7: just how the guys have you know, developed, bonded, worked out,

569
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,359
Speaker 7: you know, how they've taken the challenges that that our

570
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,360
Speaker 7: strength coach and his staff is put in front of them.

571
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 7: You know, I think I think we're all optimistic. After

572
00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 7: you know what I would guess I'd not talk to

573
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,159
Speaker 7: Jed directly about his thoughts on the winner conditioning, but

574
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:22,399
Speaker 7: everything I hear it's been great.

575
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 6: And then you know, the next phase of it is.

576
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 7: We got to get better during the spring, and you

577
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 7: know it's a process, and you know this year is

578
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 7: you know, it's you know, you know, you know this

579
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,639
Speaker 7: year is going to be here sooner, sooner than we expect.

580
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 7: And you know, the test is very difficult in our

581
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 7: conference because for the third consecutive year, the reigning national

582
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,200
Speaker 7: champions will be inside Husky Stadium and or will we

583
00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 7: play the reigning national champions? And you know that that's

584
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:49,960
Speaker 7: just that kind of feels like the normal over a

585
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:50,919
Speaker 7: business being in the Big Den.

586
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 2: Now, yeah, that great stuff.

00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 1: shortstop and George Kirby on the mound. He's got to

628
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:38,800
Speaker 1: kind of get his act together a little bit too, man.

629
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 1: He had kind of a subpar year, was banged up obviously,

630
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,880
Speaker 1: and missed the entire month of April and almost all

631
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 1: of May last season. Came back in the month of

632
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 1: September and made five starts and two of them he

633
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 1: allowed ten runs combined, seven over two against the Raids,

634
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 1: three and four against the Cardinals. Settled down a little bit,

635
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 1: but his thing, Jack and I thought a year ago

636
00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:02,880
Speaker 1: was just putting up the crooked number.

637
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:03,639
Speaker 2: That's got to stop.

638
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, two of his last eight starts he allowed

639
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,200
Speaker 1: seven runs or more last season.

640
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 6: Yeah.

641
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 4: I attribute a lot of that to the injuries and

642
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 4: the things he was dealing with last year. I would

643
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,439
Speaker 4: expect those numbers and get back to where they were

644
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,119
Speaker 4: but it's one of those things where we're expecting a

645
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 4: lot of these guys softie who were hurt last year

646
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 4: to go back to their normal numbers, to go back

647
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:26,119
Speaker 4: to their healthy ways.

648
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 3: And you know, that's really what a lot of the

649
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:30,440
Speaker 3: World Series hopes rely on.

650
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:31,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, no doubt.

651
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 1: I mean, they had obviously so many guys that missed

652
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 1: about twenty twenty five starts a year ago. And that's

653
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 1: the crazy thing is that with all the injuries to

654
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,719
Speaker 1: Gilbert and Miller and Bryce Miller excuse me, Brian wu,

655
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 1: they still won ninety games, right. I mean, if these

656
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 1: guys can look no pitching staff, it's ever fair. I

657
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 1: think going into a year to say, hey, you guys

658
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 1: better stay healthy, that's stupid to have everybody make thirty

659
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 1: two starts or thirty plus starts apiece.

660
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 2: You're gonna have guys misstarts.

661
00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 1: But the fact that they had so many dudes misgame

662
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,960
Speaker 1: games last year and they still won ninety They actually

663
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: were pretty good in those games that all those guys missed.

664
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 1: They Harvard right around five hundred if not over five

665
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 1: hundred last season when those guys weren't there. So I mean,

666
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people like to bag on

667
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 1: Logan Evans and Luis tef Castillo and guys like that,

668
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 1: but they were pretty freaking good. Dude, when those guys

669
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:21,840
Speaker 1: missed games last year, I don't want to count on

670
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:22,280
Speaker 1: that again.

671
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 2: That's the whole point.

672
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 1: I don't want to sit here and say, well, we're

673
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 1: gonna be fine, because I don't think they have the

674
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 1: depth they used to have in their starting rotation. Man,

675
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 1: they got a couple of guys obviously in the miners.

676
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 1: You know, obviously Kate Anderson might be closer because he's

677
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 1: older because he played college baseball, But I don't feel

678
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 1: like they have that major league ready depth in the

679
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:42,760
Speaker 1: miners like they maybe had a couple of years ago.

680
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 4: It's a good point because there are key players. There's

681
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:48,800
Speaker 4: key guys that you want to see make an impact.

682
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,400
Speaker 4: But it isn't like, you know, there's like six seven

683
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 4: guys who you say, yeah, they're gonna be able to

684
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 4: be depth and role players on this team.

685
00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 3: We don't have that.

686
00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 4: But at the same time, like you know, I was

687
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 4: a my chiropracted this morning and he was like, when

688
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 4: are we going to see cold Emerson this year? When

689
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 4: are we going to see that picture? From LSU this year,

690
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 4: and it's sort of like there's those guys where even

691
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 4: your your casual fans are like, yeah, that's a star

692
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 4: in the making.

693
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 2: And I want to see him at some point.

694
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 3: But yeah, you're right, there's not that depth.

695
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I don't need to see those guys

696
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 1: anytime soon. I just want to see him when they're ready, right.

697
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not sitting here saying, you know, let's

698
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,959
Speaker 1: get Kate Anderson called up a sap or cold Emerson

699
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: called up asap. I mean, obviously what's going to go

700
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 1: on with JP Crawford and Leo Revos and Cole Young

701
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 1: and all those guys. I mean, cold Emerson's gonna get

702
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 1: caught up when he's good and freaking ready. So you

703
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,040
Speaker 1: tell your chiropractor to calm down, right, I mean Cole Young,

704
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 1: excuse me, cold Emerson at a home run today for

705
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 1: the Rainiers, by the way, opening day for Tacoma.

706
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,520
Speaker 2: But that's what happens when you get in trouble.

707
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 1: Like people that have been following this baseball team for

708
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 1: a long time, remember when they rushed Mike Zanino, you know,

709
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 1: up to the major leagues and he wasn't ready and

710
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 1: they just you know, they had no catchers and they

711
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 1: had no choice.

712
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 2: That's not what this franchise is doing anymore.

713
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 1: They're not doing stupid crap like they were doing fifteen

714
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 1: to twenty years ago. I mean, they've got depth a

715
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 1: little bit, you know, at some of these spots.

716
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 2: They don't need to rush the kids up there. But

717
00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 2: here's what we got.

718
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 1: We got college basketball coming up in a matter of minutes,

719
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 1: Saint John's Duke game, number one of today's Sweet Sixteen.

720
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 1: They're gonna get the Michigan State Yukon winner, Alabama, Michigan, Tennessee,

721
00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 1: Iowa State, Arizona, Purdue already in in the West, Illinois

722
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 1: and Iowa are gonna fight.

723
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 2: Off for a trip to the Final four.

724
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 1: I think Arizona and Purdue that game intrigues me a

725
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,440
Speaker 1: little bit because I think Arizona might just blast him

726
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 1: out of the water.

727
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 2: By the way, Arizona looks like a juggernaut right now.

728
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:39,880
Speaker 1: But the Saint John's Duke game that we're gonna hear

729
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:42,200
Speaker 1: in a couple of minutes from now, Man, this really

730
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 1: feels like the game of the tournament so far. Because

731
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,720
Speaker 1: everybody is jumping on Patino's wagon. Calling him the goat.

732
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 1: They're living in the moment recency bias. He's the greatest

733
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 1: of all time and now he's gonna take on the

734
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 1: Duke Machine. If he can get by Duke tonight, there's

735
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of people Jackson picking Saint Johnson

736
00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:58,479
Speaker 1: win the whole freaking thing.

737
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:00,720
Speaker 4: They will, and I think they already. But I would

738
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 4: say on Duke, Duke is not looking like the machine

739
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 4: Duke one. It was not only the injuries, but that's

740
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 4: a team that was down by a bunch against Siena.

741
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 2: The sixteen in the first round.

742
00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 4: I mean Sienna had him by about ten points for

743
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 4: a good thirty minutes of that game. That Duke machine

744
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 4: does not look So I would view this Saint John's game,

745
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 4: and we already knew five seed was low for Saint John's.

746
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 4: So Douke, are they even looking like a one seed?

747
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 4: Not even this should be a fifty to fifty type

748
00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 4: game at night?

749
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 2: Did you?

750
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 1: By the way, see speaking of CINA, just see who

751
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 1: they just hired as their new head coach.

752
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 2: I did.

753
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 3: How about how about our good old friend Mike going

754
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 3: back there.

755
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 2: Mike Hopkins is the new coach at CNN.

756
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 1: I also saw a stat where Arizona Purdue Illinois Iowa.

757
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 1: Iowa is playing for their first trip to the Final

758
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,959
Speaker 1: four since they went to the Final four with Loudelson.

759
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 1: Arizona is playing for their first trip since they went

760
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 1: to the Final four also with loud Olson. Right, so

761
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 1: both those teams are looking to get back to where

762
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: they once were a long time ago. All right, here's

763
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,880
Speaker 1: the deal. Uh hum millen in on Monday, we're talking

764
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 1: of football a lot of draft. You know, I've told

765
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 1: Hugh Man this is one of those years where Buddy,

766
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 1: I get it, you really only look at the first

767
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 1: round guys, but we need you to start scouting some

768
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 1: of these later round running backs. Obviously later round corners.

769
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 1: Hawks only have the four first round picks. So he's

770
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 1: going to be on it starting on Monday. If you

771
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 1: miss Pat Chun with us on the radio. Shut up

772
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 1: the stuff about the tiers that were reported about the

773
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 1: Big ten where you dub was going to take less

774
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 1: money than Oregon. He's saying that that structure that we

775
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 1: had heard through.

776
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:30,720
Speaker 2: The media is not happening.

777
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 1: So what does that mean? What does that mean for

778
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 1: the private equity deal? What does that mean for a

779
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 1: tiered system. If it does get to that, we got

780
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 1: college basketball though. Coming up next on ninety three three KJRFM,
