And 34 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: got to give Charlie Goldsmith credit because Charlie leaned into 35 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 1: this a couple times over the course of the last 36 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: month or so and said that the ABS system is 37 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 1: going to turn into a system in which you could 38 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 1: have one segment a day dedicated to how ABS impacted 39 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 1: the previous day's games. And that is obviously sure the 40 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: case with what we saw with the Reds over the 41 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: weekend and across Major League Baseball. So we'll get all 42 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: things Reds and Baseball with Jeff Carr at one o'clock. 43 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 1: At two o'clock, Rick Browing will join us to talk 44 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: all things college basketball. If you did not follow along, 45 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: if you've been living under a rock this weekend and 46 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: you're just tuning in now to get caught up to speed, 47 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 1: I don't know if three hours is enough to describe 48 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 1: what happened over the course of the weekend in college basketball, 49 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: including madness. In the Final four field being set yesterday, 50 00:02:55,320 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 1: the last ticket punched went to the Yukon Huskies Duke 51 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: Blue Devils become the first number one seed in the 52 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: history of the NCAA tournament to lose after being up 53 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:14,519 Speaker 1: by fifteen or more points at the half. Yukon wins 54 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: it on a thirty five footer from Braylan Mullins after 55 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:24,639 Speaker 1: a Boozer turnover leads to the shot opportunity. Yukon, at 56 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: one point was down nineteen points, came back and beat 57 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 1: the Duke Blue Devils. So in the Final four, you're 58 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: gonna get Yukon in Illinois, and then you were going 59 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: to get Arizona and Michigan Michigan absolutely mauled, mauled Tennessee 60 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: yesterday in the tune of an absolute beat down. I 61 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: believe thirty plus points was the margin of victory and 62 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: Michigan led the whole way. They left no doubt with 63 00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: a ninety five sixty two win over Tennessee. And then 64 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: the day before, you want to talk about convincing Arizona, 65 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: as convincing as it comes in the second half, perdue 66 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: let Arizona thirty eight thirty one at the break. Arizona 67 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: outscored the Boilermakers forty eight to twenty six in the 68 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: second half in route to a seventy nine sixty four win. 69 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: And Illinois also faced a four point deficit at the half. 70 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 1: They outscore Iowa by fourteen in the second half to 71 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: win its seventy one to fifty nine. So we've got 72 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: a final four weekend and field that is set. I'll 73 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 1: ask the question today. We'll take this via talkbacks or 74 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: via your phone calls five one, three, seven, four, nine, 75 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: fifteen thirty. Where does Braydon Mullins shot now rank in 76 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: NCAA tournament history. There's a lot of Kentucky fans out 77 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: there that are ready to move on from seeing the 78 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 1: Christian Laytner shot year in and year out. Where does 79 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: the Mullins three now rank in tournament history. We'll have 80 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,359 Speaker 1: a discussion on that today, but also take your phone 81 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: calls at five, one, three, seven, four, nine, fifteen thirty. 82 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: But our guy Rick Burn will help sort through all 83 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: of that. And for everyone except four teams, the offseason 84 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: is already underway. What that means here in Clifton, What 85 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 1: that means for the Xavier Musketeers and Richard Patino and 86 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 1: so much more. We'll get with Rick at two o'clock 87 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: in between now and then we'll dive through what happened 88 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: with the Reds over the course of the weekend, and 89 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: we'll talk about the rest of the sports world, including 90 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: including the idea of replacement officials. NFL owners are quote 91 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: alarmed by the state of negotiations with the NFL Referees 92 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: Association and have now authorized staff members to begin hiring 93 00:05:55,640 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 1: and onboarding replacement officials in the coming weeks, leagues sources 94 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: said Sunday at the start of the league meetings. By 95 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: the way, at the league meetings, it is not expected 96 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: that we're going to hear from Katie Blackburn. We'll discuss 97 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: that at some point today. But once this happens, it 98 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 1: is going to become a much bigger challenge with the 99 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: NFL Referee Association. So something to keep an eye on 100 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 1: as it pertains to the National Football League. Speaking of 101 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: the National Football League, it is Monday, which means we 102 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: will do our edition of mock Draft Monday. We'll use 103 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: what Matt Miller had to say, not just for round one. 104 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: Let's look at the Bengals hall that Matt Miller projects 105 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 1: them getting in April's NFL Draft. The forty nine Ers 106 00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:52,599 Speaker 1: and John Lynch completed an injury conspiracy that resulted in 107 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: a big nothing burger, according to John Lynch. After the 108 00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: San Francisco forty nine Er season ended, the John Lynch 109 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 1: vowed to investigate anything and everything that might have contributed 110 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: to the team's avalanche of injuries. That obviously included something 111 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: we've talked about on this show and around the National 112 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: Football League, the viral online theory that the electrical substation 113 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 1: near the team's training facility was having adverse effects on 114 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: the players. John Lynch said Sunday that they ruled out 115 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: that theory and provided tangible steps that the team is 116 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: taking to reduce further injuries. Also AFC North news coming 117 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: down over the weekend. The Cleveland Browns, if you remember 118 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: earlier in March, made a deal with aj Apencia a 119 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: defensive end that the team felt uncomfortable finalizing the deal 120 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: at the veteran defensive end had his physical, so that 121 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: deal is no longer in place between the Cleveland Browns 122 00:07:55,440 --> 00:08:02,679 Speaker 1: and aj A PENSA sorry Major League Baseball. Over the weekend, 123 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: we saw our first ABS ejection. Minnesota Twins manager was 124 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: ejected for arguing with the ABS system. Yes, essentially arguing 125 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: with a robot. So we've seen our first ejection as 126 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: it relates to the ABS system in Major League Baseball. 127 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: How about the Toronto Blue Jays three and oh for 128 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: the first time this century. They do so by their pitching, 129 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: combining for fifty strikeouts. Fifty strikeouts over the weekend in 130 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:41,439 Speaker 1: a series sweep over the Athletics. So good starting pitching 131 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: all around from the Toronto Blue Jays have them set 132 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 1: up for the first time in a century at three 133 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: and oh to the first weekend of games.

So shaping up 173 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 1: in the women's side of things for a potential to 174 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: see all four number one seeds in the women's Final four. 175 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: I also think it's interesting as you follow along now, 176 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: and we'll have this talk a little bit with Rick 177 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 1: Broin as well, is the day and age of the 178 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 1: Cinderellas now done in college basketball because of the talent 179 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 1: that's on display on the court and because of what 180 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: these power for programs can now provide that just wasn't 181 00:11:56,800 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: there when you'd see the Loyola Chicago team go on 182 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 1: these magical runs, or you think of the non power 183 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 1: conferences that would make runs. Now you're still seeing teams 184 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 1: make runs. Don't get me wrong, but the runs that 185 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 1: we've seen this year and eleven seeded Texas team and 186 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 1: again Texas has ample money to pay their players and 187 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: a number nine seed in Iowa, those are essentially your 188 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: Cinderella stories from this year, which really don't pan out 189 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,959 Speaker 1: to be Cinderella stories. Those are teams from power conferences 190 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 1: that are spending a lot of money in NIL. But 191 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: it does go to ask the question, does the NIL 192 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: does the transfer portal world does it set up differently 193 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 1: now for the Cinderella stories that could have been going forward. 194 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: We'll discuss that and much more as we get going today. 195 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: Let's take one phone call here before we get to 196 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,960 Speaker 1: the end of our number one Jonathan or the end 197 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: of segment number one, Jonathan is calling in. What's up, 198 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 1: Jonathan for. 199 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 4: Always taking my call? 200 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 5: Tony. 201 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 4: What I was calling in about is the potential of 202 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 4: their replacement rest for the time being. It's kind of 203 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,719 Speaker 4: funny to think that this might happen. 204 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 6: Again, and hopefully they vet. 205 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 7: Them a lot better. 206 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 4: Last time they had a play a ress that was 207 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 4: a die hard New Ileans Saints fan and had pictures 208 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 4: of him in all the gear and he was super 209 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 4: excited he was going to go call for one of 210 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 4: the games. 211 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 5: So yeah, let's hopefully. 212 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 4: Do a little bit more details and you know, make 213 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 4: sure they get the right crew for everything and we 214 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 4: don't have another sale Mary with their calls again. 215 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 1: It does. It does feel like in this report that 216 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: the NFL has already kind of started compiling a list 217 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: of the top college level officials that they want to 218 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 1: try and recruit owners who are expected this week to 219 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,679 Speaker 1: approve the sweeping set of replay enhancements that are going 220 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 1: to support officials, so maybe they can find ways to 221 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: use replay to supplement and help these new officials. But 222 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: I agree, the last thing that the NFL needs, and 223 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: the last thing the NFL would want, is for someone 224 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 1: to seriously start questioning the validity or the fairness of 225 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: the games. The NFL is the top dog. The NFL 226 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 1: makes the sports world go round. If you all of 227 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:16,559 Speaker 1: a sudden start throwing in replacement officials and it dilutes 228 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: the game, or you have people questioning the fairness or 229 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: legitimacy of the game, then if you're the NFL, it's 230 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 1: kind of the one thing you can do to lose 231 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: your top spot in the grasp you have on the 232 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: sports world right now. So I think it is a 233 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: very slippery slope that these officials and the NFL have 234 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: to walk. 235 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 4: I completely agree with you. I love the fiery NSV. 236 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 8: Today. 237 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 4: I'm going to hang up and join the rest of 238 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 4: the show. 239 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: Thank you, Jonathan, Thank you so much. Have a great day. 240 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 1: We are just getting started. We'll take our first break 241 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: of the afternoon when we come back. A winning weekend 242 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: for the Cincinnati Reds, let's start with that. The two 243 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 1: wins feel vastly different than what they were able to 244 00:14:56,400 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 1: do last year, and the comeback from an eerily similar 245 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: feeling on opening day that this team has to come 246 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: to a lot last year. So let's dive in on 247 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 1: the reds and more phone calls when we return. Five one, three, seven, 248 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 1: four nine, fifteen thirty, we're just getting started on the 249 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: home of the Bengals. The SPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station. 250 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 3: Deep breath for Deever. 251 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 9: This team a town five threes one out of two 252 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 9: seventy two seventy ten seconds to got. 253 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 6: Cut and run through the ball, and you're better than 254 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 6: the Scots getting into bills and byrsa ahead, who'ser that 255 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 6: bought the foe? 256 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: That's still about. Let's caravan two seconds you loos tosses 257 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: it up. 258 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 10: Let's done. 259 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 11: We're poor. 260 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 3: Three John goes in try literally impossible. 261 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 12: Jans great book. 262 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: That's a flection the reaction that absolute scenes last night. 263 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: I think for the first time Bill Raffie was speechless. 264 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 1: Like I watched I don't know an unhealthy amount of 265 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 1: times I watched the actual play unfold itself last night, 266 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 1: and then probably ten or fifteen times I watched just 267 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: the camera that was on RAF and Grant Hill there 268 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 1: at the end. It was an unbelievable finished an unbelievable call. 269 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: You got Dan Hurley bumping up against an official not 270 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: quite sure what he was thinking. And then you got Boozer, 271 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 1: who if you probably just throw the ball in the 272 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 1: air as high as you can, or just hold the 273 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: ball and take the foul. Duke is playing in the 274 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: final four instead, it is Yukon that advances. We'll get 275 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 1: back to phone calls in just a few moments. Let's 276 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: die through what happened over the weekend for the Cincinnati Reds, 277 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: and we'll get more in depth in this with Jeff 278 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 1: Carr at one o'clock this afternoon. It was a eerily 279 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 1: familiar feeling that happened last Thursday in the way in 280 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,239 Speaker 1: which the Reds lost their season opener. Andrew Abbott went 281 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 1: six scoreless innings, bullpen had a little bit of a 282 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: lead down in the offense was just nowhere to be found, 283 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 1: and it was almost being transported back in time into 284 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:29,679 Speaker 1: last year when the Reds lost so many close games 285 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 1: and just failed to get runs across the board. That 286 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 1: went away for a bit when they took the field 287 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: again on Saturday. By the way, tip your cap to 288 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Reds. Organization Kids Opening Day as always a 289 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 1: resounding success what they do here in Cincinnati, not just 290 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 1: on actual Opening Day, but the Kids Opening Day as well, 291 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,880 Speaker 1: and for those players to take their time awesome stuff. 292 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: Tip your cap to the Cincinnati Reds. They find a 293 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: to get a win on Saturday, despite not the best 294 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: first outing of the year from Brady Singer, who only 295 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: lasted four innings. He gave up five hits, three earned runs, 296 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 1: did strike out five, but walked two batters as well. 297 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 1: From there, Sam Mal Pierce Johnson good outings. Graham Ashcraft 298 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: came on and walked another batter and gave up an 299 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 1: earned run. Tony Santition through twenty five pitches in an inning, 300 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,119 Speaker 1: worked around two walks but did strike out three. And 301 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,879 Speaker 1: then the moment that kind of felt like it was 302 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: gonna break the Reds back, the Boston Red Sox were 303 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: down to their final out of the game and Wilmorebrau 304 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:45,440 Speaker 1: hit a solo home run off Emilio Pagan, And then 305 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 1: again it felt like we were transported back to last 306 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: season because the top of the tenth inning comes along 307 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: and Connor Phillips was awesome. Runner starts on second base, 308 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: no one gets across for Boston, and then in the 309 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:04,120 Speaker 1: bottom half of the tenth, Jose Travino let off tried 310 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 1: to bunt the runner to second. That didn't work, and 311 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,160 Speaker 1: you made it eventually to the eleventh inning. You thought, Okay, 312 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 1: the wheels are going to fall off here a little bit. 313 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,399 Speaker 1: But Connor Phillips shut the door for a second straight 314 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: inning against the Boston Red Sox. You go into extra 315 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 1: innings in Major League Baseball with a runner starting on 316 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 1: second each inning, and you shut a team down completely 317 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: in back to back innings, that is impressive. Impressive work. 318 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 1: Connor Phillips did just that, and in the bottom half 319 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:39,200 Speaker 1: of the eleventh, Dane Myers welcomed himself to Cincinnati with 320 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 1: a walk off single to score TJ. Friedel, and the 321 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 1: Reds won it six to five. The Reds offense on 322 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:52,439 Speaker 1: Saturday came from South Stuart, who was able to single 323 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 1: in the bottom half of the first, and then Eo Henneosuarez. 324 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: We talked about the ABS system. Suarez used ABS on 325 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: back to back pitches, back to back pitches in that 326 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 1: game to eventually get himself on base. So the most 327 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: thunderous roars I thought from the crowd on Saturday came 328 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 1: from a successful use of the abs challenging back to 329 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: back at bats, but in the game itself, the Reds 330 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: built up a three to nothing lead before Trevor Story 331 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: got one back for Boston, and then South Stuart homered 332 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 1: in the third to make it four to one. From there, 333 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:36,400 Speaker 1: Boston started chipping away. They got it to four to three. 334 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,680 Speaker 1: We saw Elie de la Cruz hit his first home 335 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: run of the young Major league baseball season before a 336 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: bra You doubled in the seventh, and then homered in 337 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 1: the ninth to make it five to five before the 338 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 1: Meyers single eventually won it. Flash forward to Sunday. Three 339 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: to two was the Reds victory. How Aboutrhet Louder Five innings, 340 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: three hits, two earned runs. Guy was not pitching in 341 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,239 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball last year. What an outing for him 342 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: against a very good lineup to start his Red season. 343 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,400 Speaker 1: Five innings, three hits, tour in runs, struck out five batters, 344 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 1: and then Burke Johnson Santeon Pegan all combined to go 345 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 1: to the final four innings. They spread across a hit 346 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 1: each inning but allow no runs to come across for 347 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 1: the Boston Red Sox, and yet until you got to 348 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: the bottom of the sixth. It felt again eerily similar 349 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: to last year because rhet Lad had given them a 350 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: chance to win. They just really didn't make the most 351 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: of it until Eo Honey Oosuarez came up to bat 352 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 1: with two runners on in the bottom of the sixth 353 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:45,120 Speaker 1: and on an zero two count hits a fastball four 354 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty one feet. That was all the Reds needed, 355 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: three to two. They win it in a game that's 356 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 1: all Ellie de la Cruz strikeout three of his four 357 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: plate appearances in a game that's all South Stewart, not 358 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: two more hits for the Cincinnati Reds. He has had 359 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 1: hits now in seven of his ten at bats. He 360 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: also has three walks. He's been on base already ten 361 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: times this season, has South Stuart. You've got to commend 362 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: the job, not only that south Stewart has done, but 363 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: the idea by Terry Francona to split up Ellie and 364 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:28,359 Speaker 1: Suarez with South Stuart. I saw from Sarah Langs on 365 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: Twitter yesterday that south Stewart has reached base ten times 366 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:36,120 Speaker 1: in his first three games, the only MLB player since 367 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:40,400 Speaker 1: nineteen hundred to reach safely ten times in the first 368 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: three games at a younger age than South Stuart, Jim 369 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: Fergrassi and Barney mccoskey. He's the first Red to do 370 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 1: this at any age since Barry Larkin did it in 371 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 1: two thousand and one. Just felt yesterday like the bats 372 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,200 Speaker 1: were gonna go silent and then boom. How do you 373 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 1: bring you Honey Osuarez to Cincinnati for a moment like that, 374 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 1: because he can change the game in one swing of 375 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 1: the bat. That's what he did yesterday. And shout out 376 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:17,119 Speaker 1: to the Reds. And I know it wasn't pretty, but 377 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 1: they won two out of three games to start the year, 378 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: and the opposing team threw two lefties in that series. Now, 379 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: they didn't get to win against Crochet, but Connolly Early 380 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: yesterday they worked him enough that Early wasn't able to 381 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 1: make it maybe as deep in the game as he 382 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 1: had liked. He threw ninety six pitches over five and 383 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: a third and then the Reds were able to get 384 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: to the bullpen. So shout out to the Cincinnati Reds. 385 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 1: They take two out of three. We'll talk about what's next, 386 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 1: which is the Pittsburgh Pirates coming into town. Sean, do 387 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,880 Speaker 1: we have just a couple minutes of what Terry Francona 388 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: had to say after yesterday's win. 389 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 9: Please, so Terry had six days two men on GEO, 390 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 9: what's going through your mind right before, right after the 391 00:23:58,080 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 9: home run? 392 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 10: Why I can tell you after, you know. 393 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 13: I mean, I mean, I think I think that's a 394 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 13: game that last year we lose a lot of times 395 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 13: because we were you know, we're kind of frustrated. We 396 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 13: had some hits we didn't get. We didn't bunch them together. 397 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 13: But all of a sudden they try to sneak a 398 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:18,440 Speaker 13: fastball by him and it completely changes the game. And 399 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 13: that didn't happen a lot. That's why we got Geno. 400 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 9: Santi and he'd take us through what you saw, you know, I. 401 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 13: Mean, I think his break the ball is very good. 402 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 13: He scattered his fastball a little bit right now. But 403 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 13: he also has about as quick a feet as anybody 404 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 13: you're going to see. I don't care you take his 405 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,159 Speaker 13: Sighe he would take a little guy. His feet are 406 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,160 Speaker 13: so quick other than the sinkers who are brave. 407 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 12: From loud, what you see from. 408 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 13: I thought he was really really good, and I thought 409 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 13: he started to get a little tired kind of in 410 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 13: the fourth, But you don't want to just immediately take 411 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 13: somebody out because we want to build him up a 412 00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 13: little bit. I thought, a brave you had it. Just 413 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:02,719 Speaker 13: a great at bat. You know, if we're sitting over here, 414 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 13: I'm bragging about that at bat. Fouled off a bunch 415 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 13: of pitches. He he gives them really good at bats. 416 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 13: So it's just a really good hitter doing this thing 417 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 13: Florida swinging. When he had that, you know, I was 418 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:22,399 Speaker 13: kind of hoping that would have gone out. You know, 419 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,920 Speaker 13: at some points early on the way, the winds blowing. 420 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,440 Speaker 13: It's it's swirling, so you don't know if it's helping 421 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 13: or hurting. But the ball, it didn't matter. 422 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 14: You mentioned that, you know, and you send the other 423 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 14: side of it. 424 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 13: How happy he is, he called hold him. I felt 425 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,120 Speaker 13: like that since the day we got him. I think 426 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 13: he's happy to be here. We're thrilled to have him, 427 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 13: and he lifts everybody up, and I think we already 428 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 13: had a great group. But he he adds a lot. 429 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 13: You mentioned a queer feet to tell me, yeah, I mean, 430 00:25:58,040 --> 00:25:59,880 Speaker 13: because there was some traffic and he was having trouble 431 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,120 Speaker 13: man in his fastball. But I give hassle it has 432 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 13: has spent so much time with our catchers and pitchers 433 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 13: talking about those situations and things like that. 434 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 10: So that's pretty cool. 435 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 15: When it works out like that, you're thoughts on the 436 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 15: quality and be a nast like fun. 437 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 13: They've they've been tremendous. And I know he's not going 438 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:23,399 Speaker 13: to hit six fifty or whatever he's hitting what I 439 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 13: mean maybe, but he's a good hitter. And I know 440 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,159 Speaker 13: I've been saying it for a while now. He's an 441 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,439 Speaker 13: advanced young hitter. I think what he is is an 442 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 13: advanced hitter. Last year he talked about, you know, about 443 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 13: winning clean games or playing clean games. 444 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 15: Arijuana, right, Starry, seeing that mean something? 445 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it really does. When we give ourselves 446 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,919 Speaker 13: a chance. I mean, you know, we boot the ball 447 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 13: around a little bit, Gino's home run, you know this 448 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 13: cosmetic we lose by one or two. So when we 449 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 13: play clean, we generally give ourselves a chance to win, 450 00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 13: and that's what we have to do. 451 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: There's a little bit of Terry Francona a great point 452 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 1: there at the end. This team was just so bad 453 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,640 Speaker 1: in close games last year. They win two one run 454 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: games in their first series. Those are positive signs for 455 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 1: the Cincinnati Reds. Not a positive c B. Buckner. I 456 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 1: don't know how long c B. Buckner is going to 457 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 1: last in the ABS world. According to CODEAFI ump scorecards 458 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 1: incorrectly called balls and strikes by mlbumps in their first 459 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: outing trip, Gibson and Chris Siegaal both had nineteen. That's 460 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 1: the second highest nowhere, close to c. B. Buckner, who 461 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 1: over the weekend in his first game behind the plate 462 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 1: incorrectly called twenty six pitches twenty six pitches called incorrectly. 463 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: In the game alone, he had six pitches overturned by 464 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,479 Speaker 1: the ABS system, including back to back called third strikes 465 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:03,160 Speaker 1: on EU Suarez. Not going to be a good year 466 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: in my opinion for c. B. 467 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 10: Buckner. 468 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,159 Speaker 1: A lot still to go.

Field there was a great play that he 832 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:10,160 Speaker 15: had in the loss on Opening day where he stretched 833 00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 15: really high up on a double play ball was able 834 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:14,640 Speaker 15: to bring down the ball and keep his foot on the. 835 00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:18,800 Speaker 15: BAG i think that, overall there's so much to like 836 00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:21,840 Speaker 15: with his, game but there's also a lot of things 837 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:25,399 Speaker 15: that point to this not being. Fake like he's got 838 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:29,880 Speaker 15: good bat, speed he's got good plate, discipline and obviously 839 00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:31,879 Speaker 15: he's not gonna hit seven, hundred that would be pretty. 840 00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:35,120 Speaker 15: Crazy but is he gonna hit two? Eighty is he 841 00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:37,200 Speaker 15: gonna hit two? Ninety that definitely seems. 842 00:47:37,239 --> 00:47:41,840 Speaker 1: Doable at what, point because again you have to we 843 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 1: have to reset a little bit and understand it's three. 844 00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:47,880 Speaker 1: Games could he do enough over the course of this 845 00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,320 Speaker 1: early part of the season to get you with The 846 00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 1: reds to, say maybe we should try to find a 847 00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:54,640 Speaker 1: way to lock this kid up on a team friendly 848 00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:56,080 Speaker 1: deal and get that out of the way and in 849 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:58,360 Speaker 1: a way and they did The Hunter green, Deal, like 850 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,400 Speaker 1: could there be a scenario Or Sal stewart plays himself 851 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:03,040 Speaker 1: into The reds having that decision to. 852 00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 15: MAKE i certainly think The reds should have that on 853 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 15: the table because the only other guy THAT i would 854 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:13,480 Speaker 15: even consider that with right now Is matt. McClain like everybody, 855 00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:15,759 Speaker 15: else that kind of feels, like, yeah sure you could 856 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 15: lock Up spencer's, tear and, yeah sure you could lock 857 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 15: Up nicolodolo or somebody like. That but If sal just 858 00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 15: keeps this up and is one of the catalysts of this, 859 00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:30,600 Speaker 15: team like it looks like he already, is then, yes 860 00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:33,120 Speaker 15: that would be super smart because we're seeing teams all 861 00:48:33,160 --> 00:48:36,320 Speaker 15: over the league do this with different. Players The pirates 862 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:39,360 Speaker 15: are really close TO i THINK i can't remember if 863 00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:41,080 Speaker 15: they announced it or, not AND i think they're close 864 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:43,880 Speaker 15: with something On Connor. Griffin guy hadn't even been called up, 865 00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,680 Speaker 15: yet and they're trying to do like what The brewers 866 00:48:46,760 --> 00:48:49,680 Speaker 15: did With Jackson. Curio SO i wish The reds would 867 00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:51,279 Speaker 15: do things like that, more And sal would be the 868 00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:52,040 Speaker 15: perfect guy to do it. 869 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:54,400 Speaker 1: With you Mentioned matt. McClain i think a lot of 870 00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:56,480 Speaker 1: people were hesitant after last year and, say all the 871 00:48:56,560 --> 00:49:00,080 Speaker 1: great spring, training but it's just spring. Training how what 872 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:03,399 Speaker 1: is it to see, again three game sample, Size matt 873 00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 1: McClain doing what you need him to do as a 874 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:05,440 Speaker 1: two hole. 875 00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:11,440 Speaker 15: Hitter it's fantastic to see his renaissance at the, plate 876 00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:14,400 Speaker 15: and it's not necessarily just about the. Production it's about 877 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:17,080 Speaker 15: how he approaches each and every. Bat, Tony he's got 878 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:22,440 Speaker 15: two swings and. Misses that's it the entire. Weekend and you, 879 00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:25,799 Speaker 15: know we saw plenty of, players But matt McClain has 880 00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:29,440 Speaker 15: two swings and misses. TOTAL i think that what we 881 00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:32,320 Speaker 15: saw in spring training from the plate discipline side of, 882 00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 15: things his ability to stay back on that outside breaking 883 00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:37,719 Speaker 15: ball and in a lot of cases lay off of. 884 00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:41,920 Speaker 15: It that's, believable and so he is going to be 885 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:46,280 Speaker 15: able to translate those types of metrics and peripheral stuff 886 00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:47,760 Speaker 15: into production. 887 00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:48,480 Speaker 4: Like we are. 888 00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:50,600 Speaker 15: SEEING i, mean he's hitting the ball so. Hard but 889 00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:54,520 Speaker 15: also the really impressive thing, too is he's increased his bat. 890 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:57,400 Speaker 15: Speed HE i think he was around seventy one to 891 00:49:57,520 --> 00:50:01,120 Speaker 15: seventy one point one last. Year he's up over seventy 892 00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:03,920 Speaker 15: three right. Now he was below lea gaverage last, year 893 00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:07,080 Speaker 15: he's abovely. Gaverage, now those are kind of things that 894 00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:11,920 Speaker 15: you can take from the data and say this makes 895 00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:15,200 Speaker 15: everything else looks so much more sustainable because it's not 896 00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:17,640 Speaker 15: like he's out there and he's just getting super. Lucky 897 00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:20,600 Speaker 15: he's also really changed his approach at the, plate and 898 00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:21,799 Speaker 15: it's EVIDENT. 899 00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:24,480 Speaker 1: I also have to ask. Me we talked about it On, 900 00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:29,120 Speaker 1: Friday Andrew abbott Shaky spring seems to push all that 901 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:31,440 Speaker 1: behind him and has a great first.

Louder what did you make of him being 905 00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:41,960 Speaker 1: able to give you five only give up the two 906 00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:45,040 Speaker 1: runs keep the team in it Until suarez was able 907 00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:47,400 Speaker 1: to hit his home. RUN i didn't know what to 908 00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:49,480 Speaker 1: expect With Rhet.

Bomb at that, 931 00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:48,600 Speaker 15: point it was easy to see him. Unraveling but he 932 00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:51,279 Speaker 15: just goes, back gets his business done with the very next, 933 00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:53,960 Speaker 15: hitter and you're, Like, okay there's nothing wrong with this. 934 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:56,200 Speaker 10: Dude he did not look like he missed five hundred plus. 935 00:51:56,320 --> 00:52:00,440 Speaker 1: DAYS i have a hard, TIME i, think if explaining 936 00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:03,839 Speaker 1: at times how difficult the task was On saturday For Connor. 937 00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:07,120 Speaker 1: Phillips he was the victim of the abs On, thursday 938 00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:09,640 Speaker 1: got roughed up a little. Bit but to go in 939 00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:12,080 Speaker 1: back to back innings where the runner is starting on 940 00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:14,880 Speaker 1: second base and allow zero runs in the tenth and 941 00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:19,520 Speaker 1: eleventh to Allow meyers the. Opportunity Connor phillips is one 942 00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:22,600 Speaker 1: of those guys you start talking about ceilings and you 943 00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:25,319 Speaker 1: can get really excited about A Connor. Phillips how big 944 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:28,759 Speaker 1: was that On saturday for him to hold things down 945 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:29,279 Speaker 1: like he did in. 946 00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:32,920 Speaker 15: Extras he did it so well that The Red sox 947 00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:35,799 Speaker 15: ghost runner never left second base and. 948 00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 1: They had all the moment about to the home, run, 949 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 1: right and like that is the. 950 00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:44,160 Speaker 15: Thing that just shocks, me because so often last year 951 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:46,840 Speaker 15: it felt like the ghost runner was just gonna. Score 952 00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:49,400 Speaker 15: you live with giving up that one run and then 953 00:52:49,440 --> 00:52:52,080 Speaker 15: you got to move. On And Connor phillips was, like, 954 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:54,640 Speaker 15: nah he ain't even, moving, dude we ain't even going ninety. 955 00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:58,279 Speaker 15: Feet like his pitches were so. Crisp and the way 956 00:52:58,360 --> 00:52:59,920 Speaker 15: that he is able to mix his fastball in a, 957 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:03,640 Speaker 15: slider especially if he can tunnel it the way that 958 00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:05,520 Speaker 15: we saw in the tenth and eleventh innings On. 959 00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:09,000 Speaker 10: SATURDAY i really feel like he's got closer. 960 00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:11,480 Speaker 15: Upside, Yeah and as long as he can keep that 961 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:15,440 Speaker 15: command in check that we see leave him, sometimes and 962 00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:18,279 Speaker 15: if that doesn't happen very, often then we will be 963 00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:21,120 Speaker 15: talking about him probably by the end of the, season 964 00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:23,440 Speaker 15: moving into that sort of a role where The reds 965 00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:25,879 Speaker 15: just are spoiled for choice when it comes to late, 966 00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:27,200 Speaker 15: inning high leverage. 967 00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:30,560 Speaker 1: Dudes on the other side of, things, again just three 968 00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:33,359 Speaker 1: games in small sample, size are you concerned at all 969 00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:36,840 Speaker 1: about the early returns from this lineup against left handed? 970 00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:41,919 Speaker 15: Starters, slightly But i'm going to give them a little 971 00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:43,960 Speaker 15: bit more benefit of the. DOUBT i think it's intriguing 972 00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:46,759 Speaker 15: that we're still seeing the same reverse splits very early 973 00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:50,680 Speaker 15: on with Noelvi, marte Although Terry francona seems to be 974 00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:53,320 Speaker 15: employing him as though those reverse splits have never. Happened 975 00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:57,040 Speaker 15: that's one of those you gotta shake your head and 976 00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 15: kind of scratch it a little bit and try and 977 00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:02,840 Speaker 15: figure out what he's. There But Noelvie martez reverse splits 978 00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:05,719 Speaker 15: are a bit. Concerning and THEN i need to see 979 00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:07,880 Speaker 15: more From Dane, meyers because it felt like they kept 980 00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:10,319 Speaker 15: them on the bench on opening day whenever they really 981 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:11,680 Speaker 15: needed him in some left handed. 982 00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:12,680 Speaker 10: SPOTS i think we. 983 00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:14,680 Speaker 15: WILL i think he's going to get a lot more 984 00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:17,920 Speaker 15: opportunities as lefties around the.

OSUAREZ i know they've both homered 1003 00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:13,200 Speaker 1: to start this. Year in the first three, games they've 1004 00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:15,640 Speaker 1: had twenty four at bats, combined they've struck out in 1005 00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:18,200 Speaker 1: twelve of. Them is this just kind of the give 1006 00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:20,799 Speaker 1: and take that you're gonna have knowing that these two 1007 00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:23,520 Speaker 1: are among league leaders in swinging and missing and that 1008 00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:26,800 Speaker 1: is Why South stewart's in between. Them but for fans 1009 00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:29,360 Speaker 1: that may get frustrated, early you just kind of got 1010 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:31,439 Speaker 1: to set the bar and understand these guys are gonna 1011 00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:31,960 Speaker 1: swing and miss a. 1012 00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:37,320 Speaker 15: LOT i think so With, GINO i expect That ellie's 1013 00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:39,600 Speaker 15: going to continue to improve in this. Area he just 1014 00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:42,560 Speaker 15: hasn't quite gotten super comfortable at the. Play he hit 1015 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:44,960 Speaker 15: right handed a lot more than he had left handed this, 1016 00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:48,279 Speaker 15: weekend and as much as switch hitting can be a, 1017 00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:51,600 Speaker 15: weapon still yet to really see that become a part 1018 00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:54,279 Speaker 15: of his. Game as far as weapons are, concerned it 1019 00:55:54,600 --> 00:55:58,480 Speaker 15: almost feels like you have to Turn ellie around if 1020 00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 15: you're the opposing, manager if you have that, ability and 1021 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:03,320 Speaker 15: if you, don't think questions should be raised because he 1022 00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:05,560 Speaker 15: hits far worse as a right hander than a. 1023 00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:08,919 Speaker 10: Lefty but at the same, TIME i saw a marked. 1024 00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:12,120 Speaker 15: Drop in strikeout rate and swinging this rate last year 1025 00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:14,879 Speaker 15: before the, injury AND i think that we'll see more 1026 00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:17,360 Speaker 15: of that from. Him he just he hasn't found that 1027 00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:20,000 Speaker 15: comfortability at the plate just. Yet he wasn't one of 1028 00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:23,440 Speaker 15: the guys that was going absolutely insane in spring training 1029 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:25,920 Speaker 15: and hitting over five, hundred and SO i just think 1030 00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:30,880 Speaker 15: that there's that that moment where consistency clicks in for 1031 00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:33,759 Speaker 15: him hasn't taken place, yet and once it, does we're 1032 00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:36,799 Speaker 15: going to see this just other worldly performance from. Him 1033 00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:38,640 Speaker 15: BECAUSE i expect him to get even better than what 1034 00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:40,919 Speaker 15: we saw from the first four months of last. 1035 00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:43,400 Speaker 1: Year is there anyone else that is going to be 1036 00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:45,640 Speaker 1: playing majority of the games for The reds that you're 1037 00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:47,839 Speaker 1: kind of waiting on to kind of jump start. THINGS 1038 00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:51,320 Speaker 1: i know spencer'styear one hit so far on the. Season 1039 00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 1: is there a player or players in the lineup that 1040 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:56,799 Speaker 1: you're waiting on to, Say, okay it's time to start 1041 00:56:56,920 --> 00:56:59,280 Speaker 1: kicking things up that maybe you wanted to see translate 1042 00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:00,480 Speaker 1: from spring to the regular. 1043 00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:05,759 Speaker 10: SEASON i Think steer is just right there and like 1044 00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:06,399 Speaker 10: turning things. 1045 00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:08,680 Speaker 15: On he missed a home run Off chatman by about 1046 00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:12,399 Speaker 15: a foot and a half On, saturday AND i think 1047 00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:14,719 Speaker 15: that he's got the swing speed. Up he's right there 1048 00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:17,560 Speaker 15: With matt McClain as far as really jumping up the 1049 00:57:17,680 --> 00:57:20,320 Speaker 15: speed of his bat through the. Zone SO i think 1050 00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:22,760 Speaker 15: we're gonna start to see more results from. Him the 1051 00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:24,880 Speaker 15: thing That i'm most concerned about right now Is Tyler. 1052 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:29,440 Speaker 15: STEVENS i don't know where he. Is like his his 1053 00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:31,760 Speaker 15: couple of games that he got to, play he was 1054 00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:35,920 Speaker 15: a non factor with the. Bat his defense was, fine but, 1055 00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:38,240 Speaker 15: again the run game is something that he just doesn't 1056 00:57:38,280 --> 00:57:41,560 Speaker 15: control very. Well and when you start to look at 1057 00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:44,240 Speaker 15: the things that are stacking up against, him this Being 1058 00:57:45,120 --> 00:57:47,920 Speaker 15: i'd be shocked if this wasn't his final years Of. 1059 00:57:47,960 --> 00:57:51,320 Speaker 15: Cincinnati read it's go, time it's contract, year And i'm 1060 00:57:51,400 --> 00:57:55,960 Speaker 15: expecting to cease out Or spencers all of the, essays 1061 00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:59,120 Speaker 15: they're all in my. Brain Tyler stevens, SAID i go 1062 00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:02,080 Speaker 15: off this. Year but it hasn't happened. Yet and it's 1063 00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:04,360 Speaker 15: not as if he's getting unlucky or anything like that 1064 00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:06,760 Speaker 15: at the. Plate it it just hasn't started. 1065 00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:09,640 Speaker 1: Yet let me ask you about what's coming. Up starting, 1066 00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:13,040 Speaker 1: tonight The pirates come into, Town Chase burns takes the. 1067 00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:17,040 Speaker 1: Mound how important of a start is? This because we 1068 00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:19,120 Speaker 1: Had Charlie goldsmith on the Show friday and he thought 1069 00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:22,520 Speaker 1: that That Chase burns' final spring trading outing was a 1070 00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:24,760 Speaker 1: big one because it crossed a lot of the things 1071 00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:27,400 Speaker 1: off to the checklist that you want to. See what 1072 00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:30,200 Speaker 1: are you looking for From Chase burns tonight going against 1073 00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:32,760 Speaker 1: a very big and a very Powerful brax And. 1074 00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:36,920 Speaker 15: Ashcraft, yeah and The pirates LINEUP i think is a 1075 00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:38,840 Speaker 15: lot better than it was last year as, Well so 1076 00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:41,720 Speaker 15: he's gonna have a tougher task going up against. THEM 1077 00:58:41,960 --> 00:58:43,960 Speaker 15: i think we're gonna See Terry frank kind of Manage 1078 00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:47,720 Speaker 15: Chase burns very similarly to how he Managed Reht. Louder 1079 00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:50,200 Speaker 15: we saw Brock burke get up and warm up in 1080 00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:52,760 Speaker 15: like the fourth and fifth, innings and so you wondered 1081 00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:54,800 Speaker 15: how short that out he was gonna. Go, thankfully it 1082 00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:57,680 Speaker 15: was still a pretty decently you, know five innings from. 1083 00:58:57,760 --> 00:58:59,800 Speaker 15: HIM i think we'll see the same thing. Here chase 1084 00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:02,000 Speaker 15: is starting to struggle in the fourth and the fifth. 1085 00:59:02,040 --> 00:59:05,720 Speaker 15: Inning he's not going to have a long, leash AND 1086 00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:08,400 Speaker 15: i don't think we're gonna see him get into a 1087 00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:12,560 Speaker 15: ton of trouble in those. Innings And Taro francona just, said, 1088 00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:14,600 Speaker 15: yeah he's gonna work out of that like they're going 1089 00:59:14,680 --> 00:59:16,400 Speaker 15: to be Very you're gonna treat it with kid. Gloves 1090 00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:19,160 Speaker 15: BUT i still expect, that you, know the control we 1091 00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:22,120 Speaker 15: saw in that last, start him being able to mix 1092 00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:24,640 Speaker 15: his fastball and a slider so well and then drop 1093 00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:26,760 Speaker 15: that change up in there when he needs. To he 1094 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:28,959 Speaker 15: really threw the change up quite a bit in spring, 1095 00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:31,600 Speaker 15: training AND i don't think that we'll see that in 1096 00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:35,240 Speaker 15: a regularly competitive. Game it's gonna be, fastball, slider fastball, 1097 00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:39,320 Speaker 15: slider then maybe a change up in at. BAT i think, 1098 00:59:39,400 --> 00:59:44,400 Speaker 15: overall we'll see some of the peaks that we saw 1099 00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:47,560 Speaker 15: from him last. Year maybe not his best start to 1100 00:59:47,640 --> 00:59:50,600 Speaker 15: get going in the, season BUT i would Expect i'll 1101 00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:52,480 Speaker 15: say four and two thirds innings. 1102 00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:53,520 Speaker 10: Tonight is what we'll get out Of Chase. 1103 00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:55,919 Speaker 1: BURNS a lot of people Viewed pittsburgh as a team 1104 00:59:55,960 --> 00:59:59,160 Speaker 1: that can surprise some people this. Year if The reds 1105 00:59:59,160 --> 01:00:01,920 Speaker 1: are going to get back to the, playoffs if The 1106 01:00:01,960 --> 01:00:04,080 Speaker 1: reds are going to compete in THE Nl, central you 1107 01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:06,360 Speaker 1: know what The Saint Louis cardinals. Are how important are 1108 01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:09,680 Speaker 1: these series against The Pittsburgh pirates to get wins in these? 1109 01:00:09,720 --> 01:00:12,280 Speaker 1: Series they've, not in my, opinion beaten The pirates enough 1110 01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:14,520 Speaker 1: over the last couple of years when they were further. 1111 01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:19,200 Speaker 1: Down how important are these early divisional series against teams 1112 01:00:19,240 --> 01:00:21,280 Speaker 1: that you're probably gonna be competing against for much of 1113 01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:23,320 Speaker 1: the season in The. Central they're. 1114 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:28,960 Speaker 15: MONUMENTAL i, mean you almost can't oversell the importance of Beating. 1115 01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:32,960 Speaker 15: Pittsburgh AND i say that like knowing that really all 1116 01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:35,000 Speaker 15: they got to do is win seven out of thirteen 1117 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:38,240 Speaker 15: and it's a successful season against. Them they did that last, 1118 01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:40,600 Speaker 15: year but last year was the first time they beat 1119 01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:43,320 Speaker 15: The pirates in the season. SERIES i think Since David 1120 01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:46,440 Speaker 15: bell was the, manager, LIKE i think we got to 1121 01:00:46,480 --> 01:00:49,080 Speaker 15: go back to even like Before Jim, riggleman you, know 1122 01:00:49,240 --> 01:00:50,040 Speaker 15: took over For Brian. 1123 01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:50,360 Speaker 10: Price. 1124 01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:54,560 Speaker 15: Hope we all love to remember that that quick, era but, 1125 01:00:54,680 --> 01:00:56,640 Speaker 15: no it's The pirates have had their number for a long. 1126 01:00:56,720 --> 01:00:59,840 Speaker 15: Time AND i think that the key here is not 1127 01:01:00,120 --> 01:01:03,640 Speaker 15: allowing that starting pitching staff or that pitching staff to 1128 01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:04,520 Speaker 15: really get a ton of. 1129 01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:08,240 Speaker 10: Strikeouts And i'm sorry about. Those it's a really nice. 1130 01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:10,400 Speaker 10: Day have the windows. Open that, is. 1131 01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:17,640 Speaker 15: It's not allow That pirate's pitching staff to get a 1132 01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:19,520 Speaker 15: ton of swing missus on a ton of. Strikeouts you 1133 01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:21,479 Speaker 15: gotta put the ball in play because This pirates team 1134 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:23,000 Speaker 15: is a bad fielding. 1135 01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:25,959 Speaker 10: Team you got to make them make. Mistakes just hit. 1136 01:01:25,960 --> 01:01:27,880 Speaker 1: To O'Neil cruise in the outfield you'll be, fine. 1137 01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:31,120 Speaker 10: Exactly and Then Paul skins will be. Format. 1138 01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:35,080 Speaker 1: Yeah how how far off in this new world in 1139 01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:38,040 Speaker 1: baseball AT C. B? BUCKNER i, mean what?

Baseline he's 1314 01:11:06,120 --> 01:11:08,080 Speaker 1: getting pushed out of bounds and he just throws the 1315 01:11:08,160 --> 01:11:11,479 Speaker 1: ball as high as he can into the rafters and 1316 01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:13,559 Speaker 1: by the time the ball comes back, down the clock has. 1317 01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:17,759 Speaker 1: Expired And, shier with his team in a meeting, space 1318 01:11:18,280 --> 01:11:20,160 Speaker 1: is going on and on and on about the HIGH iq, 1319 01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:23,759 Speaker 1: play and he's showing this play and if you think about, 1320 01:11:23,800 --> 01:11:28,080 Speaker 1: it If boozer just tosses that ball towards the other 1321 01:11:28,200 --> 01:11:32,120 Speaker 1: side of the arena as high as he. Can the 1322 01:11:32,200 --> 01:11:35,240 Speaker 1: ball probably bounces and the game is. Over, also it 1323 01:11:35,320 --> 01:11:39,040 Speaker 1: shouldn't be. Overlooked do ket a time out left when 1324 01:11:39,400 --> 01:11:43,240 Speaker 1: things got a little bit. Dicey If shier just takes 1325 01:11:43,280 --> 01:11:47,080 Speaker 1: a time, out calms the guys, down then the rest is. 1326 01:11:47,200 --> 01:11:49,640 Speaker 1: History but, again do you blame the?

Personnel that's all, happening but one of 1554 01:23:34,840 --> 01:23:39,320 Speaker 1: the other things that historically happens at these league meetings 1555 01:23:40,000 --> 01:23:43,519 Speaker 1: from A cincinnati, standpoint as you get to hear From Katie. 1556 01:23:43,520 --> 01:23:47,919 Speaker 1: Blackburn she's the executive vice president of The Cincinnati bengals 1557 01:23:48,560 --> 01:23:53,280 Speaker 1: and last year had some pretty interesting quotes at league 1558 01:23:53,320 --> 01:23:56,760 Speaker 1: meetings as well as league years. Passed but according To 1559 01:23:56,800 --> 01:23:59,400 Speaker 1: Paul Danner, junior this happened on a recent episode Of The. 1560 01:23:59,439 --> 01:24:03,679 Speaker 1: Growler Katie blackburn won't make herself available to the. Media 1561 01:24:03,800 --> 01:24:06,320 Speaker 1: paul said this, Quote normally we would be speaking With 1562 01:24:06,479 --> 01:24:09,320 Speaker 1: Katie blackburn out. There that's not going to happen this, 1563 01:24:09,439 --> 01:24:14,000 Speaker 1: year The bengals are not making her. Available there isn't 1564 01:24:14,040 --> 01:24:18,880 Speaker 1: an understanding on, why so you don't want to jump 1565 01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:22,320 Speaker 1: to a conclusion to what's. Best BUT i think around 1566 01:24:22,439 --> 01:24:25,120 Speaker 1: the fan base there could be some, anger there could 1567 01:24:25,120 --> 01:24:28,320 Speaker 1: be some disappointment because it's been such a unique off. 1568 01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:34,280 Speaker 1: Season it's an off season That Joe burrow has put 1569 01:24:34,280 --> 01:24:38,400 Speaker 1: a lot of emphasis on that the fan base has 1570 01:24:38,439 --> 01:24:42,280 Speaker 1: put a lot of emphasis on critical to this team's. 1571 01:24:42,320 --> 01:24:44,160 Speaker 1: Future and just like you can say about a lot 1572 01:24:44,200 --> 01:24:46,960 Speaker 1: of off, seasons it's the most important offseason that this 1573 01:24:47,080 --> 01:24:51,439 Speaker 1: team has. Had and it's different with this Year's bengals 1574 01:24:51,479 --> 01:24:57,120 Speaker 1: because they did improve in free. Agency the three moves 1575 01:24:57,160 --> 01:25:01,640 Speaker 1: that they, made two on the defensive, line one at, 1576 01:25:01,680 --> 01:25:04,479 Speaker 1: safety you could, say, okay that makes this team, Better 1577 01:25:05,960 --> 01:25:12,760 Speaker 1: but the details in those, contracts the cap, space, mismanagement 1578 01:25:14,400 --> 01:25:18,920 Speaker 1: and just flat out skipping a big need at linebacker 1579 01:25:19,760 --> 01:25:25,920 Speaker 1: has made this off season very interesting and normally at 1580 01:25:25,960 --> 01:25:30,240 Speaker 1: the league meetings that's an opportunity to ask her about 1581 01:25:31,040 --> 01:25:34,640 Speaker 1: why these decisions were or weren't. Made, again an off 1582 01:25:34,720 --> 01:25:38,360 Speaker 1: season That Joe burrow used the term paramount to, describe 1583 01:25:40,360 --> 01:25:43,720 Speaker 1: kind of feels empty at this. Point and on top 1584 01:25:43,760 --> 01:25:47,599 Speaker 1: of feeling a little bit empty, now just a weird 1585 01:25:47,720 --> 01:25:51,599 Speaker 1: move to not have anyone speaking at these league, meetings 1586 01:25:52,120 --> 01:25:55,200 Speaker 1: just kind of another box to check off in the off, 1587 01:25:55,280 --> 01:25:58,040 Speaker 1: season in one of those boxes where you normally get 1588 01:25:58,080 --> 01:26:04,040 Speaker 1: to hear From Katie, Blackburn bengals, fans media and others 1589 01:26:04,080 --> 01:26:07,880 Speaker 1: will not have that. Chance and again a reason has 1590 01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:11,720 Speaker 1: not exactly been, Given SO i think that leads to 1591 01:26:13,120 --> 01:26:16,280 Speaker 1: a little cause of. Concern it leads to, questioning and 1592 01:26:17,200 --> 01:26:21,320 Speaker 1: you just wonder what's Behind Katie blackburn deciding not to 1593 01:26:21,439 --> 01:26:24,960 Speaker 1: speak this year's edition of The league. Meetings we'll take 1594 01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:27,040 Speaker 1: our final break of our number. Two when we get. 1595 01:26:27,160 --> 01:26:30,920 Speaker 1: Back you hear him on the calls FOR nku.

TIME i, 1638 01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:30,760 Speaker 3: mean not just the game that we witnessed last, night 1639 01:28:30,800 --> 01:28:32,599 Speaker 3: BUT i mean you think about it what we've. Seen 1640 01:28:33,439 --> 01:28:36,080 Speaker 3: THE Uk Santa clara game where you have the way 1641 01:28:36,160 --> 01:28:39,479 Speaker 3: shot that was just incredible to force. Overtime The Kansas 1642 01:28:39,520 --> 01:28:42,600 Speaker 3: Saint john's finish with The darling layup at the end 1643 01:28:42,680 --> 01:28:45,160 Speaker 3: after he hadn't made a shot all. Game The Iowa 1644 01:28:45,280 --> 01:28:48,240 Speaker 3: florida game where you have the bulgaris kid From Robert 1645 01:28:48,320 --> 01:28:52,040 Speaker 3: morris who at the big corner Three Nebraska, vandy you 1646 01:28:52,120 --> 01:28:56,240 Speaker 3: have The Tyler tanner kids shot rattle in and out 1647 01:28:56,320 --> 01:28:58,040 Speaker 3: from half court that would have won. IT i, mean 1648 01:28:58,400 --> 01:29:00,559 Speaker 3: you just go on and. On there's been so many 1649 01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:05,559 Speaker 3: amazing finishes in this tournament THAT i, mean it's it's 1650 01:29:05,640 --> 01:29:07,960 Speaker 3: been so fun to. Watch so in some, ways it's 1651 01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:10,879 Speaker 3: weird that it feels like this tournament has been branded 1652 01:29:11,120 --> 01:29:16,559 Speaker 3: like the crossover or some line of demarcation to steal 1653 01:29:16,840 --> 01:29:20,920 Speaker 3: A Richard skinner term there for the sport of when 1654 01:29:21,040 --> 01:29:23,560 Speaker 3: revenue share and the transfer portal change the tournament for. 1655 01:29:23,760 --> 01:29:27,200 Speaker 3: Us but with, THAT i think we've had as entertaining 1656 01:29:27,240 --> 01:29:28,200 Speaker 3: of a tournament as we've had. 1657 01:29:28,120 --> 01:29:28,720 Speaker 15: In a long long. 1658 01:29:28,800 --> 01:29:29,000 Speaker 8: Time. 1659 01:29:29,160 --> 01:29:30,840 Speaker 1: Yeah ALL i hear is, well this is going to 1660 01:29:30,920 --> 01:29:33,160 Speaker 1: ruin the, sport and the money's gonna. Ruin it's going 1661 01:29:33,240 --> 01:29:36,479 Speaker 1: to take away the. Cinderellas and yet not only the watchable. 1662 01:29:36,520 --> 01:29:39,000 Speaker 1: Factor you look at the ratings as. Well everyone is 1663 01:29:39,080 --> 01:29:41,880 Speaker 1: tuning in to, watch and if you look at the 1664 01:29:41,960 --> 01:29:44,519 Speaker 1: final four field that is, SET i would have a 1665 01:29:44,600 --> 01:29:46,280 Speaker 1: hard time believing that people aren't going to want to 1666 01:29:46,320 --> 01:29:47,840 Speaker 1: tune into that in this coming weekend as. 1667 01:29:47,840 --> 01:29:50,759 Speaker 10: Well, YEAH i completely. 1668 01:29:50,840 --> 01:29:52,800 Speaker 3: AGREE i, mean, obviously on the one, side you've Got 1669 01:29:52,920 --> 01:29:55,519 Speaker 3: michigan In, arizona WHICH i know everyone's pointing to as 1670 01:29:55,800 --> 01:29:58,320 Speaker 3: sort of like a de facto championship. Game whoever wins 1671 01:29:58,360 --> 01:30:00,960 Speaker 3: that one is going to be the. Chancechampion AND i 1672 01:30:01,120 --> 01:30:04,120 Speaker 3: get that that's. Fair the smart money is on one 1673 01:30:04,160 --> 01:30:06,920 Speaker 3: of those two teams winning at all. Now but between 1674 01:30:06,960 --> 01:30:09,880 Speaker 3: those two games we have two really good. Matchups, AGAIN i, 1675 01:30:09,920 --> 01:30:12,680 Speaker 3: mean if you told me Either michigan Or arizona, ONE 1676 01:30:13,800 --> 01:30:16,320 Speaker 3: i wouldn't have a strong argument the other. Way and 1677 01:30:16,439 --> 01:30:18,519 Speaker 3: same thing With illinois Or. YUKON i, MEAN i think 1678 01:30:18,840 --> 01:30:21,200 Speaker 3: that's the GAME i like. More from a pick, SIDE 1679 01:30:21,520 --> 01:30:23,800 Speaker 3: i tend to Think yukon is an underdog plus two 1680 01:30:23,840 --> 01:30:23,960 Speaker 3: and a. 1681 01:30:23,960 --> 01:30:25,320 Speaker 1: HALF i like them in that. 1682 01:30:25,439 --> 01:30:30,599 Speaker 3: SITUATION i loved Him hurley in the, tournament but those 1683 01:30:30,640 --> 01:30:33,200 Speaker 3: two games should be, awesome and then who knows what 1684 01:30:33,320 --> 01:30:36,120 Speaker 3: happens in the. Championship, man if you get An illinois 1685 01:30:36,160 --> 01:30:38,080 Speaker 3: team that's hot with the way they score the, ball 1686 01:30:38,840 --> 01:30:42,680 Speaker 3: or Maybe Dan hurley is just that. Different maybe he 1687 01:30:42,880 --> 01:30:45,080 Speaker 3: really is one of the all time greats of the. 1688 01:30:45,120 --> 01:30:48,080 Speaker 3: Sport and if you see This yukon team in the championship, 1689 01:30:48,160 --> 01:30:51,280 Speaker 3: game with his experience of what he's already, SHOWN i 1690 01:30:51,360 --> 01:30:54,280 Speaker 3: think everyone's looking at him as having the quote unquote 1691 01:30:54,360 --> 01:30:57,000 Speaker 3: worst team out of the final four right, now given 1692 01:30:57,080 --> 01:31:00,800 Speaker 3: that they're probably the least talented, offensively but the way 1693 01:31:00,840 --> 01:31:04,800 Speaker 3: they're playing right now and what he's already, SHOWN i, 1694 01:31:04,880 --> 01:31:07,120 Speaker 3: mean who would want to bet against? 1695 01:31:07,200 --> 01:31:07,600 Speaker 10: Him you? 1696 01:31:07,680 --> 01:31:09,479 Speaker 3: Know so LIKE i just think it should be a 1697 01:31:09,560 --> 01:31:11,439 Speaker 3: really fun final four in championship as. 1698 01:31:11,400 --> 01:31:14,400 Speaker 1: Well you, KNOW i, look because so Much rick is 1699 01:31:14,680 --> 01:31:17,400 Speaker 1: now made about the transfer portal and nil and how 1700 01:31:17,479 --> 01:31:19,880 Speaker 1: much money do you have to? Spend how much of 1701 01:31:19,960 --> 01:31:21,800 Speaker 1: this goes into how you spend it as, well because 1702 01:31:21,800 --> 01:31:24,160 Speaker 1: it's not like the four teams that are left standing 1703 01:31:24,640 --> 01:31:26,760 Speaker 1: all spend their money the same. Way if you talk About, 1704 01:31:26,800 --> 01:31:29,280 Speaker 1: illinois if you haven't had a chance to watch them 1705 01:31:30,360 --> 01:31:33,080 Speaker 1: at least a couple times this, year it is essentially 1706 01:31:33,160 --> 01:31:36,640 Speaker 1: A European All star. Team the way they have compiled their, 1707 01:31:36,720 --> 01:31:40,040 Speaker 1: team they have gone overseas and made it a. Point 1708 01:31:40,439 --> 01:31:43,559 Speaker 1: their coach sends multiple scouts over there and assistant coaches 1709 01:31:43,640 --> 01:31:46,840 Speaker 1: multiple times a. Year they've built their roster one Way 1710 01:31:47,360 --> 01:31:51,400 Speaker 1: arizona builds their. Roster Another michigan has gone so big 1711 01:31:51,520 --> 01:31:55,280 Speaker 1: man heavy on their. Roster when you look at how 1712 01:31:55,400 --> 01:31:58,640 Speaker 1: these four rosters that are remaining are, built does it 1713 01:31:58,760 --> 01:32:00,680 Speaker 1: give you an idea or an un standing to kind 1714 01:32:00,720 --> 01:32:03,360 Speaker 1: of look. Into you can build this to success multiple, 1715 01:32:03,439 --> 01:32:05,760 Speaker 1: ways but you got to kind of have your foundation in. 1716 01:32:05,880 --> 01:32:09,880 Speaker 3: PLACE i think that's the thing that stands up to 1717 01:32:09,960 --> 01:32:12,760 Speaker 3: me Most tony is that there isn't one right way 1718 01:32:12,840 --> 01:32:15,760 Speaker 3: to do. This and you, know especially now more than, 1719 01:32:15,760 --> 01:32:17,960 Speaker 3: ever you have sites like mine where people are on 1720 01:32:18,000 --> 01:32:21,120 Speaker 3: the message board. Constantly you have a truly dotedid discord 1721 01:32:21,240 --> 01:32:23,080 Speaker 3: that people are on and they, think you, know because 1722 01:32:23,120 --> 01:32:26,200 Speaker 3: they're on there talking about these things constantly more than everyone, 1723 01:32:26,240 --> 01:32:27,680 Speaker 3: else and they're really in the weeds with it that 1724 01:32:27,960 --> 01:32:29,960 Speaker 3: they kind of invented the sport and there's only one 1725 01:32:30,000 --> 01:32:31,960 Speaker 3: way to do these, things and they freak out if 1726 01:32:32,200 --> 01:32:34,840 Speaker 3: their team isn't doing it the same way as they 1727 01:32:34,920 --> 01:32:38,120 Speaker 3: said in their. Discord it should be. Done that's just you, 1728 01:32:38,200 --> 01:32:40,200 Speaker 3: know that's just not. Right there are there are so 1729 01:32:40,320 --> 01:32:42,519 Speaker 3: many different ways to do. It to your, POINT i 1730 01:32:42,640 --> 01:32:46,240 Speaker 3: do find it interesting that Both illinois And arizona are 1731 01:32:46,280 --> 01:32:51,080 Speaker 3: probably the two best international recruiting programs in the. Country if, 1732 01:32:51,160 --> 01:32:53,120 Speaker 3: not they're right. THERE i, mean there's maybe an argument 1733 01:32:53,160 --> 01:32:55,280 Speaker 3: for another team or two to be in that, conversation 1734 01:32:55,760 --> 01:32:57,439 Speaker 3: but both of them do such a great job with 1735 01:32:57,479 --> 01:33:00,080 Speaker 3: their international. Recruiting they hit at such a HIGH i 1736 01:33:00,200 --> 01:33:02,519 Speaker 3: rate on those international. Guys there are plenty of other 1737 01:33:02,640 --> 01:33:06,640 Speaker 3: schools trying to recruit, internationally but they're getting guys that 1738 01:33:06,960 --> 01:33:10,360 Speaker 3: are borderline guys or guys that really can't cut it 1739 01:33:10,479 --> 01:33:12,880 Speaker 3: at this level of the. Sport the high major level 1740 01:33:13,040 --> 01:33:16,080 Speaker 3: can help you win. Championships those two teams seem to 1741 01:33:16,120 --> 01:33:18,680 Speaker 3: have that figured. Out SO i don't know what the 1742 01:33:18,760 --> 01:33:21,200 Speaker 3: secret sauce is to get that figured out other than 1743 01:33:21,280 --> 01:33:25,320 Speaker 3: just having established guys who have built up those relationships overseas. 1744 01:33:24,920 --> 01:33:25,960 Speaker 1: And have a good eye for. 1745 01:33:26,080 --> 01:33:29,439 Speaker 3: TALENT i think that's a lot easier said than it 1746 01:33:29,560 --> 01:33:33,719 Speaker 3: is to actually. Find BUT i do think that stands 1747 01:33:33,760 --> 01:33:36,080 Speaker 3: out to. Me but your point about teams doing it different. 1748 01:33:36,120 --> 01:33:40,320 Speaker 3: Ways also through high school. Recruiting, again it feels like 1749 01:33:40,360 --> 01:33:42,880 Speaker 3: we've seen a major comeback with high school recruiting in 1750 01:33:42,960 --> 01:33:44,479 Speaker 3: the teams that have had a lot of success in 1751 01:33:44,520 --> 01:33:47,439 Speaker 3: THIS ncaa. Tournament so that's kind of a fun aspect 1752 01:33:47,479 --> 01:33:48,120 Speaker 3: of the tournament as. 1753 01:33:48,160 --> 01:33:50,320 Speaker 1: Well and finding the diamonds in the. Rock Keen weigler's, 1754 01:33:50,360 --> 01:33:53,599 Speaker 1: not you, know a top freshman coming into the. Game 1755 01:33:53,760 --> 01:33:57,360 Speaker 1: illinois found. Him it's a perfect. Fit it's unique how 1756 01:33:57,400 --> 01:33:59,439 Speaker 1: these rosters are building AND i want to dive into 1757 01:33:59,479 --> 01:34:02,519 Speaker 1: that here local a little bit as. Well obviously you're 1758 01:34:02,600 --> 01:34:06,360 Speaker 1: on calls alongside Of Jim keltz FOR nku. Basketball for 1759 01:34:06,479 --> 01:34:10,760 Speaker 1: a school LIKE nku in The Horizon, league does what 1760 01:34:10,920 --> 01:34:14,120 Speaker 1: do off seasons now look? Like because if you have 1761 01:34:14,360 --> 01:34:18,320 Speaker 1: those players that are at the elite.

Realistic 1775 01:34:54,560 --> 01:34:57,040 Speaker 3: if you have someone that's, good they're going to move 1776 01:34:57,160 --> 01:34:59,160 Speaker 3: up and get their, bag and all the coaches there 1777 01:34:59,200 --> 01:35:01,400 Speaker 3: would encourage them to. Do so that's part of what 1778 01:35:01,560 --> 01:35:03,960 Speaker 3: they're trying to sell now is, hey we're a proven 1779 01:35:04,320 --> 01:35:07,639 Speaker 3: training ground to develop as a, player make yourself, better 1780 01:35:07,720 --> 01:35:09,719 Speaker 3: and go secure a, bag whether that's at the professional 1781 01:35:09,840 --> 01:35:12,200 Speaker 3: level or it's just at a higher level Of division one. 1782 01:35:12,320 --> 01:35:15,800 Speaker 3: Basketball so especially if you're at their, level you have 1783 01:35:15,960 --> 01:35:17,760 Speaker 3: to have a year to year approach and you can't 1784 01:35:17,800 --> 01:35:20,639 Speaker 3: bank on getting guys to stick around for multiple. Years, 1785 01:35:20,680 --> 01:35:22,880 Speaker 3: NOW i think you can be strategic about it with 1786 01:35:22,960 --> 01:35:25,360 Speaker 3: like maybe some of your freshmens you bring in that 1787 01:35:25,479 --> 01:35:29,680 Speaker 3: you keep them interested and engaged, enough or maybe even 1788 01:35:29,720 --> 01:35:31,920 Speaker 3: you red shirt them with the understanding, of, hey we're 1789 01:35:31,960 --> 01:35:34,000 Speaker 3: going to put a lot of resources in to develop 1790 01:35:34,080 --> 01:35:37,360 Speaker 3: you with our site set on next year for, you 1791 01:35:38,200 --> 01:35:39,920 Speaker 3: and that's a way to keep guys around a little 1792 01:35:39,920 --> 01:35:42,479 Speaker 3: bit longer and have some. Continuity but, YEAH i, MEAN 1793 01:35:42,479 --> 01:35:45,280 Speaker 3: i think the last season we saw FOR, mku where 1794 01:35:45,280 --> 01:35:47,439 Speaker 3: they had to turn over a major portion of their 1795 01:35:47,560 --> 01:35:50,880 Speaker 3: roster have a whole new main core for their, team 1796 01:35:51,360 --> 01:35:53,200 Speaker 3: it felt like it was different and it took a 1797 01:35:53,240 --> 01:35:56,040 Speaker 3: little bit longer defensively to figure some things out maybe 1798 01:35:56,280 --> 01:35:58,000 Speaker 3: than it has in your. Past maybe that was because 1799 01:35:58,000 --> 01:35:59,599 Speaker 3: of who they had on the, team BUT i tend 1800 01:35:59,680 --> 01:36:02,600 Speaker 3: to think it was more to do with less continuity 1801 01:36:02,720 --> 01:36:03,920 Speaker 3: and fewer guys who had been. 1802 01:36:03,840 --> 01:36:04,479 Speaker 10: In the system as. 1803 01:36:04,560 --> 01:36:06,760 Speaker 3: Long SO i think there's a lot of that to. 1804 01:36:06,880 --> 01:36:09,719 Speaker 3: Consider this year is definitely going to be a major 1805 01:36:09,920 --> 01:36:12,640 Speaker 3: transfer portal year for them again because most of the 1806 01:36:12,720 --> 01:36:15,280 Speaker 3: guys on last year's, team especially the guys that were 1807 01:36:15,840 --> 01:36:18,360 Speaker 3: doing most of the production those guys are out of. 1808 01:36:18,400 --> 01:36:21,000 Speaker 3: Eligibility they're, gone so it's it ain't a matter of 1809 01:36:21,040 --> 01:36:23,400 Speaker 3: them transferring up or. Staying it's just you're not going 1810 01:36:23,479 --> 01:36:26,519 Speaker 3: to have them, Regardless so you definitely have to hit 1811 01:36:26,600 --> 01:36:29,400 Speaker 3: on the transfer portal. Options AND i do wonder FOR, 1812 01:36:29,560 --> 01:36:33,880 Speaker 3: nku especially last, year they had their recruits in the 1813 01:36:33,920 --> 01:36:36,920 Speaker 3: transfer portal ran the gamut From division one guys In 1814 01:36:37,080 --> 01:36:41,160 Speaker 3: donovan O'Day To division two guys And Cal robinson to 1815 01:36:41,479 --> 01:36:45,400 Speaker 3: Even naia level. Guys SO i wonder how much of 1816 01:36:45,479 --> 01:36:49,880 Speaker 3: that they looked at and, said, hmm this, worked that didn't. Work, 1817 01:36:50,320 --> 01:36:53,160 Speaker 3: Hey donovan, oday even though his stats weren't great at 1818 01:36:53,200 --> 01:36:56,000 Speaker 3: his Previous division, one he turned out great for. Us 1819 01:36:56,360 --> 01:36:58,080 Speaker 3: and we've seen that with a few other guys within our. 1820 01:36:58,160 --> 01:37:00,800 Speaker 3: League maybe if we're going to, miss we're going to 1821 01:37:00,840 --> 01:37:03,160 Speaker 3: miss on Just division one guys, now even if they 1822 01:37:03,160 --> 01:37:05,840 Speaker 3: don't have great production at the previous, school because, hey 1823 01:37:05,880 --> 01:37:08,839 Speaker 3: there's a reason someone thought they Were division ie. Recruit 1824 01:37:09,120 --> 01:37:11,360 Speaker 3: i'm not saying that's what mku's, doing but those are 1825 01:37:11,400 --> 01:37:13,800 Speaker 3: the types of CONVERSATIONS i THINK i would be having 1826 01:37:13,840 --> 01:37:14,360 Speaker 3: IF i was on that. 1827 01:37:14,439 --> 01:37:15,720 Speaker 10: Staff right, now we know the. 1828 01:37:15,840 --> 01:37:18,400 Speaker 1: Job Darren horne has done AT nku since his arrival 1829 01:37:19,120 --> 01:37:21,720 Speaker 1: a couple of years now of not making THE ncaa 1830 01:37:21,800 --> 01:37:24,040 Speaker 1: tournament and a lot of pressure in The horizon because 1831 01:37:24,040 --> 01:37:26,760 Speaker 1: you've got to win The Horizon league tournament in order 1832 01:37:26,960 --> 01:37:30,400 Speaker 1: to ultimately get your place in the. Dance what is 1833 01:37:30,479 --> 01:37:33,840 Speaker 1: the feel Around Darren horn AND nku going into another. 1834 01:37:33,920 --> 01:37:37,920 Speaker 3: Offseason, WELL i think the one thing that's exciting if 1835 01:37:37,920 --> 01:37:40,640 Speaker 3: you're AN mku fan is that Coach horne and his 1836 01:37:40,760 --> 01:37:46,080 Speaker 3: staff have not whined and complained and bemoaned the change 1837 01:37:46,120 --> 01:37:46,280 Speaker 3: in the. 1838 01:37:46,360 --> 01:37:46,639 Speaker 10: Sport. 1839 01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:49,800 Speaker 3: Now they've talked like other schools that, hey, like there's 1840 01:37:49,880 --> 01:37:52,479 Speaker 3: reality here for the resources that we need. Now we 1841 01:37:52,680 --> 01:37:55,160 Speaker 3: used to be top of our conference and resources and 1842 01:37:55,280 --> 01:37:57,519 Speaker 3: now with the Revenue sharon And ile, stuff we're in 1843 01:37:57,600 --> 01:38:00,559 Speaker 3: the bottom half of the league and what we're putting 1844 01:38:00,680 --> 01:38:03,120 Speaker 3: forth to try to compete and we're kind of having 1845 01:38:03,160 --> 01:38:05,360 Speaker 3: to make up for that on our end coaching. Wise 1846 01:38:05,439 --> 01:38:10,040 Speaker 3: but from a enthusiasm and vigor, STANDPOINT i think he's 1847 01:38:10,080 --> 01:38:13,400 Speaker 3: really attacked this transfer portal era and he's excited about 1848 01:38:13,680 --> 01:38:17,000 Speaker 3: the opportunities they can present AT nku for transfer. Options, so, 1849 01:38:17,560 --> 01:38:19,960 Speaker 3: uh from that, Standpoint i'd be excited about what they're 1850 01:38:20,000 --> 01:38:22,640 Speaker 3: going to bring. In but, man it's just it's such 1851 01:38:22,680 --> 01:38:25,120 Speaker 3: an unknown when you Hit april seventh and the portal. Opens, 1852 01:38:25,160 --> 01:38:28,759 Speaker 3: now it's like you have no idea what to, expect 1853 01:38:28,800 --> 01:38:31,080 Speaker 3: and even from a coaching, standpoint you can't really bank 1854 01:38:31,160 --> 01:38:34,200 Speaker 3: on much until you actually get in and you see 1855 01:38:34,560 --> 01:38:35,519 Speaker 3: how the how the chips are. 1856 01:38:35,560 --> 01:38:39,040 Speaker 1: FALLING i want to switch to The Xavier.

Back the other guy 1920 01:41:34,680 --> 01:41:37,800 Speaker 3: THAT i think they're going to prioritize Is Gabriel, pizzado 1921 01:41:38,240 --> 01:41:40,680 Speaker 3: the six to seven wing From, evansville who no one 1922 01:41:40,720 --> 01:41:43,000 Speaker 3: got to see last year because he hurt his knee 1923 01:41:43,200 --> 01:41:47,599 Speaker 3: in preseason practices over the summer Towards. Meniscus wasn't really 1924 01:41:47,720 --> 01:41:50,360 Speaker 3: healed until like mid to late par portion of the, 1925 01:41:50,400 --> 01:41:53,240 Speaker 3: season started practicing a little, bit never played in, games 1926 01:41:53,280 --> 01:41:56,400 Speaker 3: he red, shirted and they're trying to bring him back as. 1927 01:41:56,520 --> 01:41:59,800 Speaker 3: WELL i think you could hear something about that getting 1928 01:41:59,840 --> 01:42:03,519 Speaker 3: done in the coming. Days but aside from, THAT i 1929 01:42:03,640 --> 01:42:06,000 Speaker 3: think you're really going to have to replace pretty much 1930 01:42:06,120 --> 01:42:09,400 Speaker 3: everything else on your, roster AND i think all The 1931 01:42:09,479 --> 01:42:11,439 Speaker 3: zager fans are gonna be, saying, well we got to 1932 01:42:11,479 --> 01:42:13,040 Speaker 3: go get a better point. Guard we got to go 1933 01:42:13,120 --> 01:42:16,880 Speaker 3: get better front court. Players and WHILE i agree with that, 1934 01:42:17,000 --> 01:42:19,920 Speaker 3: completely you do have to hit on better, centers better 1935 01:42:20,040 --> 01:42:22,680 Speaker 3: point guards without a. Doubt this, year every team in 1936 01:42:22,720 --> 01:42:25,439 Speaker 3: the country is saying, That and from When i'm hearing early, 1937 01:42:25,520 --> 01:42:29,320 Speaker 3: on even before we're actually into the trans transfer portal, 1938 01:42:29,360 --> 01:42:33,120 Speaker 3: window the market for point guards and centers is sounding 1939 01:42:33,200 --> 01:42:36,759 Speaker 3: like it's. Astronomical everybody, wants you, know two plus million 1940 01:42:36,840 --> 01:42:40,080 Speaker 3: dollars a piece for those, positions even guys that probably 1941 01:42:40,080 --> 01:42:43,120 Speaker 3: aren't worth. It so you're gonna have to be, really really, 1942 01:42:43,280 --> 01:42:46,280 Speaker 3: smart really really sharp with who you go after at 1943 01:42:46,320 --> 01:42:49,320 Speaker 3: those two positions, Especially BUT i think you, know from 1944 01:42:49,320 --> 01:42:52,000 Speaker 3: a need, standpoint the biggest need they have is they've 1945 01:42:52,040 --> 01:42:54,960 Speaker 3: got to get more athletic and better defensively compared to 1946 01:42:55,040 --> 01:42:55,599 Speaker 3: what they were last. 1947 01:42:55,680 --> 01:42:58,720 Speaker 1: Year how much how much optimism is there knowing that 1948 01:42:58,800 --> 01:43:01,800 Speaker 1: they weren't the most athletic, team but seeing what they 1949 01:43:01,880 --> 01:43:04,760 Speaker 1: were when they were really going on the offensive side 1950 01:43:04,760 --> 01:43:07,120 Speaker 1: of the, ball and with the roster that was, assembled 1951 01:43:07,400 --> 01:43:09,479 Speaker 1: how much excitement does that bring if they can get 1952 01:43:09,560 --> 01:43:13,240 Speaker 1: the better roster together about what the upside of this? Offense, 1953 01:43:13,320 --> 01:43:14,960 Speaker 1: yes you got to get better on the defensive side 1954 01:43:15,000 --> 01:43:17,320 Speaker 1: of the, ball but the offensive upside in the system 1955 01:43:17,360 --> 01:43:20,439 Speaker 1: That Richard patino is running has to be attractive for 1956 01:43:20,840 --> 01:43:22,160 Speaker 1: some players in the, portal. 1957 01:43:23,479 --> 01:43:25,320 Speaker 3: You would think, so AND i think that's What xavier 1958 01:43:25,360 --> 01:43:27,679 Speaker 3: fans are clinging to right. Now you, know as always 1959 01:43:27,760 --> 01:43:31,080 Speaker 3: there's you, know fans on the positive side and fans 1960 01:43:31,160 --> 01:43:33,120 Speaker 3: on the negative side of how this season, went and 1961 01:43:33,200 --> 01:43:36,200 Speaker 3: understandably so when you have a losing. Year BUT i 1962 01:43:36,240 --> 01:43:38,479 Speaker 3: think a lot of fans for a team that finished 1963 01:43:38,520 --> 01:43:42,160 Speaker 3: under five hundred are really excited about What Richard patino 1964 01:43:42,600 --> 01:43:46,400 Speaker 3: can do going forward with a normal offseason and more 1965 01:43:46,479 --> 01:43:51,400 Speaker 3: resources to. Compete SO i would say the fan excitement 1966 01:43:51,520 --> 01:43:55,000 Speaker 3: level is pretty high going into this, offseason especially when 1967 01:43:55,000 --> 01:43:57,519 Speaker 3: you consider the year they're coming off. Of but it 1968 01:43:58,160 --> 01:44:01,360 Speaker 3: all boils down to the next month and a half 1969 01:44:01,520 --> 01:44:04,599 Speaker 3: two months as they put this roster together and then 1970 01:44:04,680 --> 01:44:06,920 Speaker 3: we'll see where they're at from. THERE i, Mean Richard 1971 01:44:06,960 --> 01:44:09,280 Speaker 3: patino has been very, honest as you, said and he's 1972 01:44:09,360 --> 01:44:12,160 Speaker 3: never made any bones about the idea, that like everybody 1973 01:44:12,240 --> 01:44:15,120 Speaker 3: wanted to be a very fast turnaround now because you 1974 01:44:15,240 --> 01:44:17,760 Speaker 3: are resetting so much of your roster from season to 1975 01:44:17,800 --> 01:44:21,120 Speaker 3: season with the transfer. Portal but he, said Like it's 1976 01:44:21,240 --> 01:44:23,280 Speaker 3: not necessarily going to be a quick. Thing he knew 1977 01:44:23,400 --> 01:44:25,680 Speaker 3: last year was going to be, rough and we'll see 1978 01:44:25,720 --> 01:44:27,920 Speaker 3: where it goes from. Here BUT i don't get the 1979 01:44:28,000 --> 01:44:30,360 Speaker 3: sense that they're, like, hey we have to be back, 1980 01:44:31,120 --> 01:44:33,880 Speaker 3: at you, know WINNING x amount of games or something 1981 01:44:34,000 --> 01:44:34,639 Speaker 3: like that by next. 1982 01:44:34,680 --> 01:44:37,360 Speaker 1: Season were you surprised because it felt like it happened 1983 01:44:37,400 --> 01:44:40,360 Speaker 1: so fast to See chris mack end up With South Florida. 1984 01:44:41,920 --> 01:44:44,599 Speaker 3: It was, Interesting, yeah for.

Move but 1988 01:44:52,600 --> 01:44:55,400 Speaker 3: it does reset his, clock and it also is it's 1989 01:44:55,439 --> 01:44:58,960 Speaker 3: a change of.

Old Getting 2077 01:50:18,120 --> 01:50:21,240 Speaker 1: Lee hunter with the upside that he possesses could be 2078 01:50:22,080 --> 01:50:24,800 Speaker 1: a good move for The Cincinnati bengals and would obviously 2079 01:50:25,479 --> 01:50:29,000 Speaker 1: help with a position of.
