Speaker 3: fifteen thirty. We of course have your talkbacks to get

14
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 3: to in our number two as well. And a lot

15
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 3: a lot that not only happened over the weekend nationally,

16
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 3: but what's going to be happening locally as well. The

17
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,960
Speaker 3: lead with all of that is EO. Hennio Suarez is

18
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 3: a Cincinnati Red again. A one year, fifteen million dollar

19
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 3: deal that brings Suarez back to the Cincinnati Reds. It

20
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 3: fills a massive need for a power bat in this

21
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,759
Speaker 3: Reds lineup. Suarez last year hit forty nine home runs

22
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 3: between Arizona and Seattle. Suarez is back. We will spend

23
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 3: a significant amount of time today talking about that move,

24
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 3: what it means for this team going forward. Does the

25
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 3: move quite frankly? I know Suarez is a fan favored,

26
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 3: I know he fills a desperate need of power hitting.

27
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 3: How does he fit on this roster? How does he

28
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 3: fit as a piece going forward for Terry Francona. We'll

29
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 3: look at a projected lineup and so much more as

30
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 3: it relates to EO Hennio Suarez being a Cincinnati Red

31
00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 3: Speaking of the Cincinnati Reds, Noah is going to be

32
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 3: performing at Great American Ballpark this year.

33
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 4: I'm fired up for that. I'm not kidding. I spent

34
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 4: the entire weekend listening to Noah Khan. I will I

35
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:09,959
Speaker 4: will go hands up?

36
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 5: No idea?

37
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 3: Who know? Acan was? Are you serious? Swear? Had not

38
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 3: really listened to any of his music, like until today,

39
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 3: until this weekend, and then I feel like I feel

40
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 3: like over the weekend, like forty people that I know

41
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 3: tweeted out like the Great Divide. Yeah, so I listened

42
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 3: to that. He released a new single, yeah, and called

43
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,799
Speaker 3: the Great Divide. Literally everyone that I most of the

44
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 3: people I follow, like put out on their story and

45
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 3: I was like, okay, you had listened to you.

46
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:41,920
Speaker 4: You had a moment where you're like, wait a minute,

47
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 4: I'm missing something a lot. Okay, all right, Well, welcome

48
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,399
Speaker 4: to the world of Noah con Thank youl. He's he's

49
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 4: a Northeastern fella. He's got this big tour coming to

50
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 4: Great American Ballpark. He's playing like the Rose Bowl as

51
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 4: a part of this tour as well. I mean it

52
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 4: is massive, and he's from Boston and so he did

53
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,519
Speaker 4: a live show at Fenway last year or it might have

54
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 4: been two years ago. That was unbelievable. And he's gonna

55
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,399
Speaker 4: be doing two nights I believe, at Fenway Park on

56
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 4: this tour. That's gonna be really cool. He will also

57
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 4: be at Great American Ballpark. Can't wait this year as well.

58
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 4: That is July first. That's tough scenes for me. I mean,

59
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 4: I just bought the Chris Stapleton tickets. Yeah, so I

60
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,839
Speaker 4: don't know if I'm gonna be able to swing two

61
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 4: big concerts, but we'll try.

62
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 3: It's tough. So the Reds making some moves, making some

63
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 3: waves this weekend. Maybe it was the Noah Kahn concert

64
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 3: that you know, pushed them over the edge.

65
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, because I didn't see the TV deal to be

66
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:45,200

Speaker 4: representation at the quarterback position from the Bengals and Browns.

92
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,839
Speaker 3: No doubt about that. Shadoor, Burrow Flacco, come on down.

93
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 3: Congratulations Joe Burrow. NFL head coaching vacancies being filled as

94
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 3: we speak, the Cardinals have hired Rams offensive coordinator Mike

95
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 3: Lafloor as their new head coach. In doing this, the

96
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 3: Rams also extended today both Les Need and Sean McVay. Okay,

97
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 3: so that domino has fallen? What else? After meeting Saturday

98
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 3: with Las Vegas and Arizona Seahawks, offensive coordinator Clint Kubiak

99
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 3: is looking to become the next head coach of the

100
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 3: Las Vegas Raiders, So it feels like all of the

101
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 3: vacancies are now set. Also, the Niners in losing their

102
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:02,280
Speaker 3: defensive coordinator Robert Sala. They are hiring former Falcons coach

103
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 3: Robert Raheem Morris as their new defensive coordinator.

104
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, Kyle Shanahan and Raheem Morris go way back. We

105
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,839
Speaker 4: talked a little bit about that last week, and I'm

106
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:15,600
Speaker 4: fascinated by the NFC West because everybody in there at

107
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:20,799
Speaker 4: the moment runs like a variation of the Shanahan McVeagh offense.

108
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 4: It's all kind of the same. They're all from the

109
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 4: same tree. I mean, you obviously have Shanahan and McVeigh.

110
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 4: Now you've got Lafleur, who's been with Shanahan and a

111
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 4: McVeigh his entire career. He followed Shanahan around until most

112
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 4: recently being with McVeigh. And then you've got Koubiak, who's

113
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 4: a little bit of part of that as well. He's

114
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 4: obviously leaving to go to the Raiders. But that entire

115
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,800
Speaker 4: division basically runs the same offense.

116
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 3: Yeah.

117
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 4: I mean we talk a lot about the quote unquote

118
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 4: Shanahan offense. Yes, across the NFL, but when you really

119
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 4: think about it, I mean it is all over the NFL.

120
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,360
Speaker 4: There's variations of it. Obviously in the Super Bowl with

121
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 4: what Seattle was doing, I think Josh McDaniels is like

122
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:07,479
Speaker 4: a Brian day Ball tree. Believe it or not, I

123
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 4: heard a crazy story. I was reading Bill Belichick's book

124
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 4: over the weekend. Have you ever heard about Have you

125
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 4: ever heard about how Josh McDaniels got hired with the Patriots?

126
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 3: No?

127
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 4: So reading this book The Art of Winning by Bill Belichick,

128
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 4: and he talks about how if you're going to hire somebody,

129
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 4: they need to find their replacement first. If you're going

130
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 4: to promote somebody, they need to find their replacement first.

131
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 4: And so he gets this recommendation to hire Brian day

132
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 4: Ball from Michigan State from Nick Saban. So he hires

133
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 4: Brian Dable to be a quality control coach. Dave Ball says,

134
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 4: I want to get promoted. He goes, you need to fire, hire,

135
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 4: find and hire your replacement. Brian day Ball, hires Josh McDaniels,

136
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 4: and the rest is history.

137
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 3: Isn't that?

138
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 7: While?

139
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 3: How about that?

140
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 4: But anyways, the point is that offense is all over

141
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 4: the NFL, including here in Cincinnati.

142
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 3: Speaking about all over, NFL today announced a return trip

143
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 3: to Spain. Oh my gosh, as part of the twenty

144
00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 3: twenty six partnership with Madrid. That is now for twenty

145
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 3: twenty six, Melbourne, Rio de Janeiro, Munich, London and Madrid.

146
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 3: Now London has three games, so that will be seven

147
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 3: international games for twenty twenty six.

148
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 4: Well, you're forgetting one. There's actually an eight oh that

149
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 4: was just announced this morning as a part of the

150
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 4: NFL and kicking off Super Bowl Week. There will be

151
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,920
Speaker 4: a game played with the New Orleans Saints being a

152
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 4: part of it in Paris, France.

153
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 3: Wow. Now the eight International trips.

154
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 4: Bengals do play the Saints next year, although Cincinnati is

155
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,199
Speaker 4: the designated home team in that game. I was looking

156
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,559
Speaker 4: over the release by the NFL. It doesn't say that

157
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 4: the Saints are the designated home team, Okay, just that

158
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 4: they are participating. I would assume that they are the

159
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 4: designated home team. There's already some rumors out there that

160
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 4: the Browns are going to be their opponent in France.

161
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 4: So we apologize to the people of French, the people

162
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 4: of France, but of French, the French people, is what

163
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 4: I was gonna say. Sure, anyways, eight trips. Do you

164
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 4: think there will be a Super Bowl abroad in the

165
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 4: next ten years?

166
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 3: I hope not. I don't want it to be that way.

167
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 3: It wouldn't surprise me. It feels like it's where they're

168
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,079
Speaker 3: with where they're going. It would not surprise me. And

169
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 3: I think if you learn anything from the Royal Rumble

170
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 3: this weekend, that's not always the best thing. The crowd,

171
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 3: the crowd in uh uh Saudi Arabia was bad, was

172
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:28,959
Speaker 3: it really? It was a bad crowd. It wasn't It

173
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 3: wasn't fool. The venue wasn't full, They weren't very lively,

174
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 3: and it just kind of that reminder of I know,

175
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,240
Speaker 3: they're probably throwing a lot, throwing a lot of money there,

176
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 3: but it doesn't always equate to the best product.

177
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 4: What was like because I believe I saw a video

178
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 4: of them constructing the arena there. They constructed it and

179
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 4: it was like a temporary thing.

180
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 3: It was. It was built on like a dirt I think,

181
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 3: like parking lot. Basically they used started on January second

182
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:54,840
Speaker 3: and they built it by this past weekend.

183
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, so they basically use like the stands you see

184
00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 4: in golf tournaments, yes, uh to build it, which makes sense.

185
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:03,679
Speaker 4: It just looked how many people was it supposed to be?

186
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:05,439
Speaker 3: I don't know, okay, but there were a lot of

187
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 3: empty seats interesting and uh, while uh, Liv Morgan won

188
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 3: the women's Royal Rumble, Drew McIntyre one against Sammy's ain

189
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:22,160
Speaker 3: and then Gunter retired AJ Styles. He's now retired Goldberg,

190
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 3: John Cena and AJ Styles. So did this is a

191
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 3: wrecking ball or Ricky Ringside's predictions correct from last week? Gosh, no, no, Ringside.

192
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 3: Now he did pick Liv Morgan, she won the women's role. Okay,

193
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 3: so he's one for one, and I would say he

194
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 3: picked Drew McIntyre, so he was He's two and two. Okay.

195
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 3: He said that he did not believe in any chance

196
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 3: Aj Styles would be done. He's done. He was wrong.

197
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 3: And then to make matters worse, our insider, our self

198
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 3: proclaimed rick Ringside his winner, his pick for the men's

199
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 3: Royal Rumble. Didn't even enter the Royal Rumble. He wasn't

200
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 3: one of the thirty participants. Oh so that's kind of

201
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,560
Speaker 3: the first that's the first hurdle you gotta jump. If

202
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,319
Speaker 3: you're gonna back a winner, you gotta have one of

203
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 3: the things that's actually in the event. So I don't

204
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 3: know if we change his name far from as middle

205
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 3: name Ringside or what a ring lists I don't know

206
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 3: what it is, Ouch, but he's gonna have to bring

207
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,680
Speaker 3: it a little bit better. As the path to WrestleMania

208
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 3: now starts, Carlos Alcaraz has completed already the career Grand Slam,

209
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:35,800

223
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,080

224
00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 4: on a monopee and alliteration with the peas.

225
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 3: I don't know.

226
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 4: Buck Eyed Chuck said spring's coming early. Pal Oh, yeah,

227
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,800

228
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,599
Speaker 4: I mean it was weather knowing pretty good when I

229
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 4: left my apartment this morning.

230
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:44,120
Speaker 3: We're set for another winter weather event tomorrow. I'm seeing

231
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 3: right now three to five inches area, which that's a lot. Yes,

232
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 3: like too much on top of what we already have

233
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,080
Speaker 3: gone nowhere. Three to five is a ton yep like

234
00:12:55,559 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 3: so much? Where do you rank? Fun fact, I've actually

235
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 3: seen the movie Groundhog Day? Nice, you know me. I

236
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 3: don't watch movies. Great movie. Where do you rank it?

237
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 3: I think as far as weather movies, it's right up

238
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:14,559
Speaker 3: there with Twister. I mean, if you want to go

239
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 3: down the list of top weather movies ever, I think

240
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 3: you'd think of Groundhog's Day, and I think Twister's right

241
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 3: up there.

242
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 4: No, now, you just said something right there. Say it again,

243
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 4: Groundhog's Day. No, it's no, No, it's not Groundhog's.

244
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 3: Day, super Bowl and two words yes, did you so?

245
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:32,400

257
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 3: of a weather movie. That was a movie. I thought

258
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 3: that was like a TV No, that's a movie. You're

259

Speaker 3: been terrible this year, right, what you call that out?

267
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 3: Then shout out to Jarrell Miller. You know who Jarrell

268
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 3: Miller is. No clue. Jarrell Miller this Weekend jumped into

269
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 3: a boxing ring and he took on Big Baby and

270
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 3: Jarrell Baby as in Glenn Big Baby Davis. This guy's

271
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 3: name is just Ben Miller, oh or a big Baby

272
00:14:54,040 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 3: is all his name is. Yeah, listen to this. Jarrell

273
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 3: in this fight gets punched in the head and these

274
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 3: are heavyweights going at it. And as he gets punched

275
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 3: in the head, Austin his two pay flies up. Guy

276
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 3: has a two pay on in the boxing ring and

277
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 3: as the rounds going on, this thing's just flopping up

278
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 3: and down every time his head gets jolted back. So

279
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 3: Miller then during the break in between rounds, rips the

280
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 3: whole thing off and the place goes nuts, crowd goes wild.

281
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 3: He proceeds to fight the rest of the match just

282
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 3: balled up top. It was one of the funniest things

283
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 3: I've ever seen seen in my life. There were fans

284
00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 3: like collecting the two pay like it was a Pokemon card.

285
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 3: Outside of the ring. I mean, there were fights for

286
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 3: this thing. I didn't know two pays were still a thing.

287
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 3: Maybe Jirell helps bring him back, but awesome, awesome to

288
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 3: watch that. As Austin said, it's mock draft Monday as well.

289
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 3: I don't know if you see it said that or not,

290
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,040
Speaker 3: But now I'm saying it. It's mock draft Monday. Well

291
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 3: it is. We got to do a mock draft today.

292
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 3: We got a lot of U Honey Osuarez. The college

293
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 3: basketball weekend that was Xavior comes back from a huge

294
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 3: deficit in the second half to beat DePaul at the gun.

295
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 3: Kentucky can't figure out who that team is. They went

296
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 3: to Arkansas and they got teed up about eighteen times

297
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 3: and still found a way to win the game. Louisville

298
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 3: won and oh, by the way, the RedHawks are still undefeated.

299
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 3: RedHawks beat Northern Illinois at Mallett Hall in a dominant

300
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 3: second half fashion. I think they went on a thirty

301
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 3: six to nine run at one point in the second half.

302
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 3: They did trail it by five in the second half

303
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 3: before putting it all together and putting away Northern Illinois.

304
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 3: We'll talk about those games. We'll also talk about losses

305
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 3: for Northern Kentucky, Dayton, and the UC Bears. The college

306
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,400
Speaker 3: basketball week ahead, we will get to and shout out

307
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,640
Speaker 3: the statistic I think of the weekend Austin is what

308
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:14,760
Speaker 3: Florida did to Alabama yesterday. Did you see what happened

309
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:20,439

310
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 3: beat Alabama one hundred to seventy seven, and Florida's coach

311
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 3: kind of called a shot when Alabama was bringing back

312
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:27,919
Speaker 3: that G league guy said we're gonna beat him anyway,

313
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 3: one hundred to seventy seven. The story seventy two points

314
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 3: in the paint from Florida. Oh my gosh, they put

315
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,120
Speaker 3: seventy two points in the paint. Alabama scored seventy seven

316
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:44,120
Speaker 3: as a team. Unbelievable stuff. That is crazy. Illinois with

317
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 3: another top five win. They beat Nebraska yesterday and on Saturday,

318
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 3: some of the marquee games that happen at least in

319
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:59,239
Speaker 3: the top twenty five. Kansas knocked off BYU ninety to

320

Speaker 3: eighty two in Kentucky, going and getting to win in

330
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 3: about that? They drove it right down the floor. They

331
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 3: handed the gun on the right sideline.

332
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,640

346
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 3: later on this afternoon, but shout out to the Xavier Musketeers.

347
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,360
Speaker 3: Shout out to Joe Sunderman and Byron Larkin on the call,

348

349
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 3: amazing chief spreads. If you're thinking about what to do

350
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:44,720
Speaker 3: this week, and if you're having a super Bowl party,

351
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 3: if you're attending a super Bowl party, don't be the

352
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 3: person that doesn't show up with anything. Show up with

353
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 3: Win Shulders. Four fantastic chief spreads that literally will pair

354
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:58,479
Speaker 3: with anything anything at your super Bowl. Get together, all right,

355
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 3: let's do this. Euohanio Suarez news here Austin. The Reds

356
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 3: have added Iohannio Suarez on a one year, fifteen million

357
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 3: dollar deal. There is a mutual option for twenty twenty seven.

358
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,640
Speaker 3: First things first, I love the idea of the one

359
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 3: year deal. We've talked a lot about the idea of

360
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 3: a lockout and what happens after this season. So you

361
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 3: make sure you're good this year and then let's reevaluate

362
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:30,120
Speaker 3: after that. Last year, Suarez hit forty nine home runs

363
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 3: and was easily the best remaining bat in free agency.

364
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:39,400
Speaker 3: This team has needed a bat, This fan base has

365
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 3: long pled for a bat in this organization. If you

366
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:49,280
Speaker 3: go back to last year's trade deadline. He was also

367
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,400
Speaker 3: one of the most coveted bats with the Arizona Diamondbacks

368
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 3: and then going to Seattle Mariners. Now for Suarez, you

369
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 3: think immediately here is a player that can easily hit

370
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 3: north of forty home runs for this team. He's durable,

371
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:12,439
Speaker 3: He's missed seven games over the last three years, and

372
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 3: he's a familiar face who, by all accounts is great

373
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 3: for the locker room and great at mentoring young players.

374
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:24,959
Speaker 3: Since twenty nineteen, Suarez ranked sixth in Major League Baseball

375
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 3: with two hundred and twenty seven home runs, and his

376
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 3: top thirty in four of the five seasons since twenty

377
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 3: twenty one. So there's the bat much needed and I

378
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 3: think right away you're happy in that sense. But there

379
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 3: is something to be said here Austin as well to

380
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:49,679
Speaker 3: celebrate the Reds doing something to celebrate them bringing in

381
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 3: a bat. There's also an understanding that Suarez was still

382
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 3: there for a reason. In all likelihood, the strikeout numbers

383
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,879
Speaker 3: right now are concerning for Suarez. He's not a guy

384
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 3: that gets on base a ton, I believe. I believe

385
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 3: last year he was like two eighty nine on base

386
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 3: percentage two ninety eight on base percentage. That's lower than

387
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,800
Speaker 3: any Red last year that came up to about one

388
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 3: hundred and fifty times or more. So I feel good

389
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 3: because they made the move. How much better it makes

390
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 3: the team immediately. I'm not sure he's not a great

391
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,000
Speaker 3: third baseman. I would see him more as a as

392
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 3: a designated hitter day in and day out. For this offense,

393
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 3: and again strikes out a ton, You're probably gonna put

394
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,639
Speaker 3: him right behind Elie de la Cruz in the lineup,

395
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 3: which is a lot of swings and misses at the

396
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 3: heart of the order. But at the very core of this, Austin,

397
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 3: the very core of this, the Reds went out and

398
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 3: addressed a major flaw in their offense, and that's the

399
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 3: ability to hit the ball out of the ball park.

400
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,920
Speaker 3: And they got someone who's been doing it very consistently

401
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:03,640
Speaker 3: for a long time.

402
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, Reds fans should be happy. The Reds have done

403
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,159
Speaker 4: something that we've been asking them to do for a

404
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:13,399
Speaker 4: long time, which is expand their payroll and go and

405
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 4: get a guy who can hit the ball out of

406
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 4: the ballpark. And whether he hits thirty homers or fifty homers, hell,

407
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 4: if he hits twenty five home runs. That's going to

408
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 4: be a welcome addition to this lineup. And I don't

409
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:29,400
Speaker 4: want to like rein on the parade, but I think

410
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 4: it's important to add the context of what exactly you're

411
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:36,479
Speaker 4: getting here in a u Haanio Suarez. He struck out

412
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:40,639
Speaker 4: one hundred and ninety six times last year, one hundred

413
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 4: and seventy six before that. He led the league in

414
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 4: strikeouts in twenty twenty three and in twenty twenty two

415
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 4: over two hundred in one of those years. You mentioned

416
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 4: the on base percentage, it's not great, under three hundred

417
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:56,160
Speaker 4: last year.

418
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:58,760
Speaker 3: That is an issue.

419
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 4: But if what we've been asking for this entire time

420
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,639
Speaker 4: is for the Reds to just expand the payroll a

421
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 4: little bit and get somebody who can hit the ball

422
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 4: out of the ballpark, we have to be okay, we

423
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,679
Speaker 4: have to be willing to live with some of the

424
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 4: shortcomings that come with that. He's gonna be the DH

425
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 4: almost every day. Part of the reason why he was

426
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 4: unavailable is because or why he was available is because

427
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 4: he cannot play third base hardly at all anymore. It

428
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,680
Speaker 4: is he's only played a few winnings of firsts. Site

429
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,360
Speaker 4: doesn't play first doesn't hardly play first base at all,

430
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:33,920
Speaker 4: Like I think there, you just have to be ready

431
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,160
Speaker 4: because there's gonna be a stretch of time this season

432
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 4: where he's gonna be two for forty seven, or it's

433
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:42,959
Speaker 4: gonna feel like that he's gonna go through a stretch

434
00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 4: of hitting one twenty six and then he's gonna go

435
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 4: through a stretch of hitting three fifty seven and have

436
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 4: twelve home runs in a fifteen game span. He's that

437
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:55,119
Speaker 4: type of player and that I think is important and

438
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 4: will help this lineup. I think having him in the

439
00:24:57,280 --> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 4: clubhouse will help these young guys. Oh exactly, it's gonna

440
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:03,920
Speaker 4: all match up. Does he bat in the middle of

441
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 4: the lineup with all that swing and miss? Does Elie

442
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,399
Speaker 4: de la Cruz maybe move up a slot? How do

443
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 4: they handle Noel v Marte? Who's going to be that

444
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 4: second spot in the lineup? Kind of like we've heard

445
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:19,119
Speaker 4: Terry francona question at Redsfest. I don't know, but the

446
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,240
Speaker 4: Reds are a better team today than they were the

447
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 4: day before, and you would think that this sort of

448
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 4: offensive production, even if it's at the baseline level of

449
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 4: what we've come to expect from AU Hanio Suarez over

450
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 4: the years. Even if that's what you get, you're gonna

451
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 4: be a better offensive team and in turn, you're gonna

452
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:36,320
Speaker 4: win more games because of that.

453
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,680
Speaker 3: Go back to some of the statistics from last year.

454
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 3: When they just hit a home run, they were fifty

455
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 3: eight and thirty six. I mean, just hit a home run.

456
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 3: How many times last year did they not score a

457
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:51,119
Speaker 3: run or scored one run? Right, I mean they it

458
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 3: was unbelievable. On games where they scored four or more runs,

459
00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 3: they were sixty five and twenty five. That was the threshold. So, yeah,

460
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 3: he's going to strike out. And if you put I'm

461
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 3: looking right now, if you put Suarez and Elie de

462
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 3: la Cruz together last year and you bat them three

463
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 3: four this year, that's three hundred and seventy seven combined strikeouts.

464
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 3: That's a lot. Suarez was fourth and major League Baseball

465
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,399
Speaker 3: on strikeouts. Elie de la Cruz was tenth. Now in

466
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 3: noting that Otani was ninth, Kyle Raley was eighth, Kyle

467
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 3: Schwarber was third on that list. So strikeouts are a

468
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 3: part of the game, especially for some of these power hitters.

469
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,400
Speaker 3: But there's something about this Austin Kyle Schwarber is thirty

470
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 3: three years old. That offer was five years, one hundred

471
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 3: and fifty million. Suarez is going to be thirty five

472
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 3: and you got him for one year at fifteen million.

473
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,879
Speaker 3: I know it's not the upside of Kyle Schwarber, but

474
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:55,679
Speaker 3: for the start of February getting ready to head with

475
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 3: pitchers and catchers reporting, to add that type of bat

476
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 3: and what I believe that type of value is a

477
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 3: pretty good place to start for the Reds. Yeah, and

478
00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 3: they deserve credit for it. Now.

479
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:11,399
Speaker 4: I think we would be foolish to think that the

480
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 4: excitement around au Hanio Suarez is part of the reason

481
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,879
Speaker 4: why they signed him. I mean, clearly they care about

482
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,200
Speaker 4: ticket sales. That's been pretty obvious with the whole kyleege

483
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 4: Hober thing. So we'd be foolish not to think that

484
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 4: that had something to do with them signing this, signing

485
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,399
Speaker 4: him and being able to offset the cost of this

486
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,959
Speaker 4: in a way. What I found most interesting is what

487
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 4: was reported by Charlie Goldsmith, which is that the Reds

488
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 4: are not going to have to shed payroll to do this.

489
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 4: The projections were that they had about three million dollars

490
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 4: left to spend to meet that cap that ceiling that

491
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,239
Speaker 4: they had imposed on themselves from last year. Well, with

492
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 4: this they obviously go about ten to twelve million dollars

493
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 4: beyond that, which is obviously a good thing. And so

494
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 4: for whatever has changed, we talked about how that TV

495
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,359
Speaker 4: deal maybe impacted some things a little bit. Maybe the

496
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 4: excitement around Suarez in the merch and that's gonna sell tickets,

497
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,880
Speaker 4: and maybe there's some offsetting costs that they're hoping for,

498
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 4: or maybe they just came together as an organization after

499
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 4: Phil Castellini got booed at Xavier and was like, all right,

500
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 4: we need to change something here. Who knows either way,

501
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,159
Speaker 4: The Reds did the right thing, which is went and

502
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 4: got a power bat that we've been asking them to

503
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 4: go and get for a long time.

504
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 3: Ye people asked, and the Reds listened again. What that

505
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:32,439
Speaker 3: looks like going forward? We will discuss more when we

506
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 3: come back. Let's look at what a potential lineup could

507
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:38,959
Speaker 3: look like now with Suarez, I would assume hitting right

508
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 3: in the middle of that. We'll do some some lineup

509
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 3: projections and then we'll get to your phone calls today

510
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 3: five one, three, seven, four, nine, fifteen thirty on the

511
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 3: Home of the Bengals ESPN fifteen thirty, Cincinnati Sports Station.

512
00:28:49,400 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 10: There is an affordability time ESPN fifteen thirty.

513
00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 3: Welcome back since he three sixty ESBN fifteen thirty, Cincinnati

514
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:11,280
Speaker 3: Sports Station, thanks to our friends. It's Skyline Chile. Anytime

515
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 3: you're feeling good and hungry, it's always Skyline time. Let's

516
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 3: do this here real quick, Austin, because this the Suarez

517
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 3: news obviously adds a very different layer to the Red's lineup.

518
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 3: And again there's an understanding that three hundred and seventy

519
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 3: seven combined strikeouts between Ellie and Suarez might be a

520
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 3: little worrisome to put those guys back to back in

521
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:41,280
Speaker 3: a lineup. But as of right now, Austin, would you

522
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,240
Speaker 3: have Suarez and Elie hitting three four or I should

523
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 3: say l three Suarez.

524
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 4: Four if it were up to me, No, but I

525
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:50,719
Speaker 4: think that's what Francona will do.

526
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 3: Who goes who hits before Elie South Stewart, I think

527
00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 3: it should be Noelvi Marte.

528
00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 4: Okay, but part of the reason why that spot is

529
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 4: up for grabs is because of left handed pitching. You know,

530
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,960
Speaker 4: you have freedom leading it off more than likely, and

531
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 4: de la Cruz not being a great batter from the

532
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 4: right side of the box. So because of that, as

533
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 4: Francona said earlier this winter, is you don't want to

534
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 4: give a team a free inning with a left handed

535
00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,600
Speaker 4: pitcher on the mound against three people who can't hit

536
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 4: left handed pitching. Noel v Marte in his career has

537
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 4: not hit very well against left handers. So I wonder

538
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 4: if that's a spot for Spencer's theear if that's a

539
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 4: spot for a u Haanio Suarez, if you rethink the

540
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 4: leadoff position and move someone else to that spot, like

541
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,479
Speaker 4: maybe Matt McClain, I don't know.

542
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 3: Let me ask you this. Against a right handed pitcher,

543
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 3: I would assume South Stewart plays more First, do you

544
00:30:55,880 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 3: go defense or offense with Spencer's day playing third? And

545
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 3: if it is a right hander on the mound, do

546
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 3: you like the matchup with a Will Benson or someone

547
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 3: in the outfield or is that Spencer Steer? My main

548
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 3: question is now aiding Suarez as what I believe is

549
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,320
Speaker 3: going to be the daily DH. What does that do

550
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 3: for Spencer Steer's outlook.

551
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 4: I think it means he's mainly going to play left field.

552
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 4: I think he's an option as the backup second baseman.

553
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 4: I think he can obviously still play first. I think

554
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 4: what we'll see is a lot of offensive centric lineups

555
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 4: to start games, with defensive replacements and guys moving around.

556
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 3: Layton games.

557
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 4: I think we'll see Dane Myers come in a lot

558
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 4: to play defense Laighton games. I think we'll see Key

559
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 4: Brian Hayes maybe not start a game, but come in

560
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 4: in the middle innings to play defense. I think we'll

561
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 4: see Spencer Steer move from the from the outfield spot

562
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 4: to first base late in games to preserve the defense,

563
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 4: because what this move does is it it makes you

564
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,440
Speaker 4: worse defensively. Steer's a goal glove finalist at first but

565
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 4: now there's nowhere for South Stewart to play, and so

566
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 4: because of that, you basically are forced to put him

567
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 4: at first base or you know, take him out of

568
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 4: the lineup pretty much. And I don't think that they

569
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 4: really want to do that. I don't know that Stewart's

570
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,479
Speaker 4: going to play every single day. These are obviously good

571
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 4: problems to have, but I am curious to see what

572
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 4: Francona will come up with.

573
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, my immediate thought was, what does that mean on

574
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 3: a daily basis for Spencer and subsequently, what could that

575
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 3: mean for you know, guys in the outfield, Will Benson,

576
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,920
Speaker 3: JJ Bledeh, Dane Myers. Not that not that you've got

577
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 3: to get them at bats every single day, but as

578
00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 3: you mentioned, if if this means more left field for

579
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 3: Spencer Steer and you're kind of locked in that d

580
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:54,120
Speaker 3: H every day with Iohniosuarez, and and it's not to

581
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 3: say that he can't play third on occasion and free

582
00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:58,880
Speaker 3: it up for a DH, but I think if you're

583
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 3: if you're pushing all chips into to what the normal

584
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 3: would be, you're gonna see more Key Brian Hayes at third,

585
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,720
Speaker 3: more South Stewart at first, Suarez as a DH, and

586
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,600
Speaker 3: like you said, more time in left field for Spencer Steer.

587
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, because if I could make my perfect lineup, or

588
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 4: if I when I look at like what I think

589
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,240
Speaker 4: would be the best lineup for how Terry Francon is

590
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 4: gonna do it, it would be Friedol Marte de la Cruz, Suarez, Steer, Stevenson,

591
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 4: Stuart McClain, Hayes. You've got the balance of offense and defense,

592
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:34,400
Speaker 4: but there's two left handed batters in that entire lineup.

593
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:38,880
Speaker 4: That is probably not sustainable, So you would have to

594
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 4: go on with something like Will Benson or JJ Bledet,

595
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 4: somebody in that lineup left handed that's gonna be one

596
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 4: of the outfield spots, which means maybe it's less Spencer Steer.

597
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 4: I don't want that because I think Spencer is a

598
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 4: really good hitter. I think he'll turn himself into a

599
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 4: good left fielder. But where is the balance on each

600
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 4: of the plate.

601
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 3: I don't know. Yeah, I mean again, it's it the

602
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:06,880
Speaker 3: core of this. For me, it's a better problem to

603
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:11,400
Speaker 3: have today than it was last week. You're you're entering

604
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,319
Speaker 3: somebody into your lineup that had forty nine home runs

605
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 3: last year. That's a good thing. Again, I know already,

606
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,720
Speaker 3: Austin that, as you mentioned, there's going to be weeks

607
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,040
Speaker 3: where there is so much frustration because Elli and Swarez

608
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,919
Speaker 3: are just gonna swing and miss a ton, and that's

609
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,799
Speaker 3: going to cause frustration. I get it. But think of

610
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:35,239
Speaker 3: the alternative. Think of where this team was last year.

611
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 3: Think of again their record just hitting a home run

612
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,400
Speaker 3: or getting to four runs. Those are the threshold. So

613
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,840
Speaker 3: we've been asking for it. If they're not going to

614
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:46,520
Speaker 3: be the team that is going to be more aggressive

615
00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:47,840
Speaker 3: on the base pass and they're not going to be

616
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,120
Speaker 3: a team that's hitting for the higher average. Go get

617
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:51,840
Speaker 3: a guy that can hit the ball out of the ballpark,

618
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:53,839
Speaker 3: and you found a guy that did it forty nine

619
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:58,800
Speaker 3: times last year. Like one of the most sought after

620
00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 3: players in free agency was Kyle Schwarber. Schwarber hit fifty

621
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 3: six bombs last year. That's just seven more than Suarez hit.

622
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 3: Otani hit fifty five, Judge hit fifty three. I mean,

623
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:23,600
Speaker 3: it's it's not crazy to think. Again, do I think

624
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:27,359
Speaker 3: fifties on the table? No? Would I take forty absolutely,

625
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 3: but anything in the thirties. This is a huge win

626
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 3: and you didn't mortgage a bunch for it. It's a

627
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 3: one year deal. I think it's pretty team friendly. I

628
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 3: think the Reds, like you said, made themselves better this weekend.

629
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:46,520
Speaker 3: How can you overcome high strikeout totals a good pitching staff.

630
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 3: They have that, So again, situational hitting. Are they going

631
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 3: to be the team that puts together three singles in

632
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:57,960
Speaker 3: a row to get a run in? Probably not many times,

633
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:00,359
Speaker 3: but this in the middle of the lineup at least

634
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,560
Speaker 3: gives them the threat, and it gives I always put

635
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 3: this in the thought of opposing pitchers. It's a lot

636
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 3: more stressful now, Austin, if you're an a posing pitcher

637
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 3: going against this Red's lineup, because you had forty nine

638
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,799
Speaker 3: home runs to the middle of the lineup, that's more

639
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:21,520
Speaker 3: high stress pitching in situations. So again, good on the Reds.

640
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 3: There was a glaring need. It got addressed. I Aniosuarez

641
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 3: is a Cincinnati Red. Let's take a break and then

642
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 3: we'll take your phone calls on the situation. Five to one, three, seven, four, nine,

643
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 3: fifteen thirty. That happens next on ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati

644
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 3: Sports Station.

645
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 1: You're listening to Tony Pike Sincy three sixty on ESPN

646
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,920
Speaker 1: fifteen thirty.

647
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,359
Speaker 3: Welcome back. It is the Monday edition of Cincy three

648
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:54,160
Speaker 3: sixty ESPN fifteen thirty, Cincinnati Sports Station. We've got full

649
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,480
Speaker 3: phone lines. Let's take a couple of phone calls for

650
00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:59,880
Speaker 3: the first time today. Let's start with Scott. What's up, Scott?

651
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:04,239
Speaker 3: How you doing good things?

652
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 7: I was talking to Audio a little bit. If you

653
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:11,799
Speaker 7: take a look at the strikeouts for Kyle Schwarber, they're

654
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 7: very similar to now he's he's he's a more productive player,

655
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 7: but he struck out. I hate that the game these days,

656
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:27,840
Speaker 7: the strikeouts are just okay, They're just a thing and

657
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,839
Speaker 7: everybody is used to them. I wish as they could

658
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 7: work on cutting them down. But when looking at his

659
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 7: stats Geno's stats.

660
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:40,640
Speaker 5: They're.

661
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:46,560
Speaker 7: Not exactly similar, but the strikeout numbers are certainly the same,

662
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:50,560
Speaker 7: and I think with any big swinger they're going to

663
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:51,160
Speaker 7: be that.

664
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:52,640
Speaker 3: I think if you look up.

665
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:55,720
Speaker 7: Aaron Judges strikeouts, I think he had a bunch too.

666
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:56,839
Speaker 3: Yeah.

667
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:59,920
Speaker 4: The issue is just the difference in on base percentage,

668
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:01,680
Speaker 4: which is like seventy points higher.

669
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:02,840
Speaker 3: That's the major differential.

670
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:09,279
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, that that is very, very true, and I

671
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:13,160
Speaker 7: wish that today's player could work on cutting down the strikeouts,

672
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:16,040
Speaker 7: but they just they don't care. They just want to

673
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 7: hit it out of the ballpark and swing and misses

674
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 7: are acceptable now.

675
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:23,440
Speaker 3: Yeah one percent. Scott, thank you for the phone call.

676
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 3: We appreciate it.

677
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:24,400
Speaker 11: You know.

678
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 3: I in looking last year, the average on base percentage

679
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:31,799
Speaker 3: for the Reds was three fifteen. It was not a

680
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:34,759
Speaker 3: good hitting team. And as you mentioned, Kyle Schwober was

681
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 3: three to sixty five on base percentage last year, Suarez

682
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:41,480
Speaker 3: two ninety eight. But in some of the other categories.

683
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 3: Austin mentioned the strikeouts, where Kyle Schwarber had more strikeouts

684
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 3: than Suarez RBI's Schwarber won thirty two, but Suarez one eighteen.

685
00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 3: Iwanio Suarez had five more doubles than Kyle Schwarber last year,

686
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 3: just eleven less hits. So again, the numbers are comparable.

687
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 3: And you think of what Kyle Schwarber got contract wise

688
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 3: and what the Reds were able to get Suarez for

689
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 3: again lockout looming in twenty twenty seven, I think it's

690
00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,840
Speaker 3: a pretty pretty good land for the Reds in what

691
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 3: they were able to do.

692
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:20,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think comparing Kyle Schwarber to a Uhaneo Suarez

693
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:24,120
Speaker 4: is kind of a pointless exercise to kind of respond

694
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:25,719
Speaker 4: to what Scott said, though, I mean, I will say

695
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 4: this about Elie de la Cruz. I think we're maybe

696
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 4: assuming that he's just going to strike out a ton,

697
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:35,040
Speaker 4: and maybe that's not fair to him, because you know,

698
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:37,279
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty four he struck out two hundred and

699
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 4: eighteen times. He led the majors in strikeouts. Last year

700
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,879
Speaker 4: he cut that down to one eighty one and was

701
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:47,360
Speaker 4: much better at work in the count Now he didn't

702
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,279
Speaker 4: have a significant change in his on base percentage, and

703
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:54,480
Speaker 4: obviously the quad injury affected him, and there's been tweaking

704
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,239
Speaker 4: with that step that he takes, or the side step,

705
00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,040
Speaker 4: or however you want to describe it. So I do

706
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,440
Speaker 4: you think that there is hope that Ellie de la

707
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:08,800
Speaker 4: Cruz can continue to cut down on the strikeouts a

708
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 4: little bit and that will help everybody.

709
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:15,480
Speaker 3: Yeah. I also think that there's a part of this

710
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 3: where it felt for a time that if you were

711
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:20,359
Speaker 3: going to get a guy like Suarez or you need

712
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,239
Speaker 3: to add something, you're gonna have to shed payroll or

713
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:25,000
Speaker 3: make a trade. They got Suarez and they didn't touch

714
00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:28,319
Speaker 3: the pitching staff, a lot of Brady Singer conversation, they

715
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 3: didn't have to touch any of that, and that all

716
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:33,759
Speaker 3: adds up to a lot of positives for this organization. Mark,

717
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:39,280
Speaker 3: what's going on. I'm all in, Okay, what's going on? Okay?

718
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 12: You know, I asked for this for ID and I

719
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:43,719
Speaker 12: got what I was looking for.

720
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:45,160
Speaker 3: So I'm happy that's it.

721
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,440
Speaker 12: Well, now everybody can bat in the right place, and

722
00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:52,880
Speaker 12: I'm not so much worried about the strikeout because I

723
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:56,359
Speaker 12: think with him in the middle of that lineup. It's

724
00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 12: gonna benefit the guy back in front of him, and

725
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 12: the guy and behind him, you know, because Ellie gonna

726
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:06,799
Speaker 12: see more fastballs, He's gonna see better pitches, so I

727
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:10,520
Speaker 12: think his strikeouts will cut down. And then whoever bats

728
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:16,839
Speaker 12: behind uh Suarez, you know, whoever bat's fifth, you know,

729
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 12: if they if they having a good season, then Sware

730
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:23,399
Speaker 12: is gonna see more fastballs. So I think I think

731
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,600
Speaker 12: the strikeouts from both of them will go down because

732
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 12: they're gonna have better hitters batting in front of them

733
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 12: and behind them protecting them. So we'll see what happens.

734
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:38,080
Speaker 12: I'm hoping that Matt McClain can bounce back and have

735
00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:41,600
Speaker 12: a better season because if you can bat him second,

736
00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:46,319
Speaker 12: I think he's better suited for that that number two spot,

737
00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 12: if if he can hit for some average and hit

738
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:51,480
Speaker 12: for a little bit of power like he did when

739
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:52,480
Speaker 12: he first came up.

740
00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 3: So if they can get if they can get on

741
00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:57,920
Speaker 3: base production from number one and two in the lineup,

742
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:00,040
Speaker 3: they are they are going to put themselves in a

743
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:00,600
Speaker 3: great spot.

744
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,319
Speaker 4: I think in an ideal world, I would almost have

745
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 4: McClain as the lead off hitter with Ellie right behind him,

746
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 4: and then figure out the rest. But if they're gonna

747
00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 4: stick with Ellie being at the three and Freed'll be

748
00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:13,680
Speaker 4: in the lead off, and I'm fine with that. I

749
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:17,319
Speaker 4: think McClain is the ideal person took to put in

750
00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:20,719
Speaker 4: that number two spot. He just has to earn it

751
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:21,479
Speaker 4: at this point.

752
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 12: Yeah. Yeah, if he can bounce back and be what

753
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,680
Speaker 12: he was when he when he first came up. So

754
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,200
Speaker 12: I'll get off and listen to the rest of the show.

755
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 3: I appreciate you, Mark, thanks for calling in a couple

756
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:34,440
Speaker 3: more here. We'll get to the top of the hour.

757
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 7: What's up, Mike, Hey, thanks Thollis. Yeah, it's a nice

758
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:43,439
Speaker 7: acquisition the Reds guy. You know, I just I hate

759
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 7: to proop on a little bit, but I was really

760
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:47,960
Speaker 7: hoping they could get a left handed power hitter. That's

761
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,040
Speaker 7: what they really need, because they still got Ellie as

762
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:53,279
Speaker 7: a left handed power hitter. That's all they got. So

763
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:56,759
Speaker 7: hopefully that doesn't come back to UH too often. But

764
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 7: at least they did something, so we'll see. I hope

765
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,920
Speaker 7: it works out for the best. I don't know about Hayes,

766
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 7: what they're going to do with him, but Boston maybe

767
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:09,359
Speaker 7: right on that is just the defensive replacement. Francona might

768
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:10,839
Speaker 7: give him a chance at the beginning of the year.

769
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:12,480
Speaker 7: See if he can finally start hitting the ball. You

770
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,640
Speaker 7: know who knows what he'll he'll do because that guy

771
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:16,839
Speaker 7: can sholl pick it a third man. Here Trump mounts

772
00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:21,920
Speaker 7: at third base. Xavier, Well, I'll tell you I Patino

773
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:24,839
Speaker 7: is going to turn that team into he is.

774
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,000
Speaker 3: They're so good on the offensive side.

775
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:31,200
Speaker 7: That's the kid he brought from from New Mexico. Nailed

776
00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:34,360
Speaker 7: the winner and that kid can play, man, he can play.

777
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:37,400
Speaker 7: I'm excited about him, aren't you.

778
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:40,080
Speaker 3: They continue to get better and uh man, their offense

779
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:41,280
Speaker 3: is just so fun to watch.

780
00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:47,280
Speaker 7: Yeah, I was wondering if you saw, though, that Pierson

781
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:49,880
Speaker 7: from Kansas is by far the best player in the

782
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:50,359
Speaker 7: country at.

783
00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 3: Tony after this weekend. I mean, he was, he was elite.

784
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 7: He was And if you don't mind, I'd like to

785
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,239
Speaker 7: do a little bit of Super Bowl talk to for

786
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 7: a second. I think Marcus Jones maybe the difference in

787
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 7: that Super Bowl for New England. I don't think they're

788
00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 7: gonna win, but that guy is probably the most valuable player.

789
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:13,319
Speaker 7: He's tremendous on special teams and he's a damn good

790
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:17,279
Speaker 7: secondary dB though, I think Marcus Jones could be the

791
00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:20,239
Speaker 7: wild card in that game if New England wants to

792
00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:22,480
Speaker 7: stay close. What do you think about Marcus Jones?

793
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:24,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, they're going to have to get

794
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:28,600
Speaker 3: the production at all levels. That's how New England has built.

795
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,520
Speaker 3: Both of these teams are built in a similar sense.

796
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 3: And coaching is so important. The toughness in the trenches

797
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:37,120
Speaker 3: is so important. But you get into a game like this,

798
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:42,000
Speaker 3: whichever team can generate more momentum changing plays, more big plays,

799
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:45,279
Speaker 3: whether that's offensively or defensively. I know it's cliche, but

800
00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 3: it really feels that's what this Super Bowl comes down to.

801
00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:50,880
Speaker 3: It's not the traditional star power on both sides of

802
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:54,920
Speaker 3: the ball, it's the true team atmosphere, and in something

803
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:58,800
Speaker 3: like that, whoever makes less of those mistake plays is

804
00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:00,319
Speaker 3: likely going to come out on top.

805
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 7: I heard him talking about this kid from Division three

806
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:07,839
Speaker 7: named Montgomery out of John Carroll University that didn't even

807
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,040
Speaker 7: start playing football till he was a junior in high school.

808
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:12,719
Speaker 7: They said he really stood out big time at the

809
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:14,920
Speaker 7: Senior Bowl as a wide receiver, and I.

810
00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:16,680
Speaker 3: Never think had never heard of the guy.

811
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:17,440
Speaker 7: Have you ever heard of it?

812
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 3: No, I hadn't.

813
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:21,839
Speaker 7: I don't even know where John Carroll University is. I

814
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:23,919
Speaker 7: can't tell you in a million years. Right, they were

815
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:26,960
Speaker 7: really bullish on him. And one more quick thing. This

816
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:30,080
Speaker 7: is the sixty eighth Super Bowl and only the fifth

817
00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:33,040
Speaker 7: time ever that the two participants that are in there

818
00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:37,480
Speaker 7: didn't make the playoffs. Last year. Yeah, and Brady after

819
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:39,960
Speaker 7: he won his first one, they new England didn't make

820
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,279
Speaker 7: the Super Bowl didn't make the playoffs the next year.

821
00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,799
Speaker 7: So when you guys talk about how difficult it is

822
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:47,879
Speaker 7: to get to the Super Bowl, boy, you are dead

823
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:49,560
Speaker 7: on it. Yeah, it is hard, isn't it.

824
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:52,239
Speaker 3: Absolutely, and year in and year out, the teams that

825
00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:54,960
Speaker 3: you don't expect that that ended up making it. Mike,

826
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,040
Speaker 3: thank you for the call, man, Have a great Monday.

827
00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:57,879
Speaker 7: Thank you.

828
00:45:58,360 --> 00:45:58,560
Speaker 3: Yeah.

829
00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:00,920
Speaker 4: John Carroll by the way, a part of the Ohio

830
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:04,640
Speaker 4: Athletic Conference. Oh they're up there by Cleveland. How they're

831
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:09,920
Speaker 4: in the conference with like Ohio Northern and Otterbine and

832
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:11,120
Speaker 4: all those types of school.

833
00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:14,479
Speaker 3: I'm sure we'll find a way this week to tie

834
00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 3: that into the Bengals. But again, the fifth time in

835
00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 3: Super Bowl history where the two teams playing did not

836
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 3: make up the playoff field the year before. So again,

837
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:26,319
Speaker 3: I know we talked about this a lot Austen of

838
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:28,600
Speaker 3: all the work that needs to be done, but it

839
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:30,960
Speaker 3: is truer now than ever that you can get these

840
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:34,000
Speaker 3: things turned around quickly if you build it the right way.

841
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:39,279
Speaker 3: New England Seattle non existent in last year's playoffs, both

842
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:41,680
Speaker 3: the last two teams standing this year. I think it

843
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:44,399
Speaker 3: speaks to the diversity now in the NFL. I think

844
00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:47,760
Speaker 3: it speaks to the balance of power now in the NFL,

845
00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,400
Speaker 3: And if you get all things clicking and make the

846
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:54,560
Speaker 3: right decisions in the offseason, you can turn it around extremely,

847
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:58,160
Speaker 3: extremely quickly. We'll take our top of the hour break.

848
00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:00,680
Speaker 3: When we come back, we'll dive into a little mock

Speaker 3: Before we get into our mock Draft Monday, let's round

866
00:47:57,800 --> 00:47:59,839
Speaker 3: out our phone calls here. We got one more John,

867
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:00,440
Speaker 3: what's up?

868
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:04,319
Speaker 14: Good afternoon, guys, How are you good?

869
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:05,080
Speaker 3: Good?

870
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:07,759
Speaker 14: We're hanging in there. You're only getting three to five

871
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:09,920
Speaker 14: inches of snow. We're looking at like twenty seven inches

872
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:12,120
Speaker 14: that we got like last week. So I have no

873
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:13,280
Speaker 14: sympathy for you guys.

874
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:17,000
Speaker 3: Sorry, Yeah, it just doesn't end. The snow has gone

875
00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:19,640
Speaker 3: nowhere from last week, and we're getting ready to add

876
00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:20,480
Speaker 3: more on top of it.

877
00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:25,719
Speaker 14: Yeah, it's just absolutely crazy. John Carroll University. Josh McDaniels

878
00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:28,640
Speaker 14: was a wide receiver from nineteen ninety five to nineteen

879
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:32,360
Speaker 14: ninety eight, so he has a connection there. So maybe

880
00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:34,239
Speaker 14: that player might be a Patriot next year or a

881
00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,160
Speaker 14: Bengal or whoever. Let's hope he goes to one of

882
00:48:36,160 --> 00:48:39,279
Speaker 14: the teams we like. But the one thing that I

883
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:42,000
Speaker 14: will do, I promise is I will start following the

884
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:43,800
Speaker 14: red so I can join the conversation this year. But

885
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:46,680
Speaker 14: I'm sixty two years old. So if you keep hearing

886
00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,640
Speaker 14: references to the seventy five and seventy six Reds, don't

887
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:52,080
Speaker 14: be alarmed. That's the best baseball team I've ever seen.

888
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:52,920
Speaker 3: That's right.

889
00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:55,000
Speaker 4: That's all anybody around here talk to about anyways. It

890
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:56,280
Speaker 4: just bring it back up anyway.

891
00:48:57,480 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 14: Well, it's kind of like around here with the Bruins.

892
00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:01,120
Speaker 14: I mean, they're always good. People still talk about like

893
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:04,239
Speaker 14: the nineteen seventy and seventy two Berlins. When you don't

894
00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:05,799
Speaker 14: win much after that, you kind of.

895
00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:07,360
Speaker 3: Have to go back into the past.

896
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:10,600
Speaker 14: The one thing with I just wanted to type one

897
00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:13,600
Speaker 14: loose end with Bill Belichick's not getting into the Hall

898
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:14,080
Speaker 14: of Fame.

899
00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:19,000
Speaker 3: They're really tight litted about this stuff.

900
00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:22,160
Speaker 14: The board, the fifty members of the board. It's almost

901
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 14: like the College of Cardinals that are like the Pope.

902
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:26,040
Speaker 3: I mean, he's very secretive.

903
00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:29,080
Speaker 14: And yet this broke last week, ten days before the

904
00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:30,520
Speaker 14: official announcements, which is going.

905
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:31,600
Speaker 3: To take place on Thursday.

906
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:34,840
Speaker 14: Belichick's the one who leaked us, and I think the

907
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,640
Speaker 14: reason was part of it is that he isn't disdained

908
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:39,840
Speaker 14: for the New England Patriots. He does not like Bill

909
00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:45,439
Speaker 14: Bob Kraft. It's just he's a very petty, jealous, miserable guy.

910
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:47,920
Speaker 14: I'll say some nice things maybe some other time, but

911
00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:51,759
Speaker 14: I think wanted to kind of grab the audience a

912
00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:54,200
Speaker 14: little bit with this happening, and it kind of took

913
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:57,040
Speaker 14: a little bit away from the Patriots and Seahawks going

914
00:49:57,040 --> 00:49:59,120
Speaker 14: through the Super Bowl. There'll be the center of attention

915
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:02,600
Speaker 14: obviously week, but all last week everyone'll talk about, even

916
00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:04,600
Speaker 14: in Boston as their team was going to the Super Bowl,

917
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:06,680
Speaker 14: was Bill Belichick's not going to be in the Hall

918
00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:08,319
Speaker 14: of Fame this year. It's going to have to wait

919
00:50:08,320 --> 00:50:10,399
Speaker 14: another year. I'm convinced, and I've talked to a couple

920
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:12,160
Speaker 14: of guys that I know that are Hall of Fame

921
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:14,839
Speaker 14: voters that say that, in all likelihood it was linked

922
00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:15,480
Speaker 14: by Belichick.

923
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:18,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it wouldn't surprise me. It is a

924
00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 3: weird backdrop when you get into Super Bowl week now

925
00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:24,840
Speaker 3: and the relationship and where it is between Belichick and

926
00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:28,719
Speaker 3: the Patriots. You think back to the conversation earlier last

927
00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:32,840
Speaker 3: year about the scouts and not welcoming anyone from the

928
00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:36,920
Speaker 3: Patriots at their facilities. When the quarterback now that is

929
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:40,280
Speaker 3: leading the Patriots went to your university with North Carolina.

930
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:42,920
Speaker 3: It's just all of that makes it such a bizarre

931
00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:46,879
Speaker 3: lead up with storylines, and you have this natural fit.

932
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:51,920
Speaker 3: There's the previous coach of so many Super Bowls, North Carolina,

933
00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:54,240
Speaker 3: where Drake May comes from. Now he's leading the Patriots,

934
00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:56,000
Speaker 3: and you don't welcome any of that because of this

935
00:50:56,120 --> 00:51:00,360
Speaker 3: disdain between Belichick and the organization. Now fellows.

936
00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:03,120
Speaker 14: North Carolina put out a tweak congratulating Drake Magnee he

937
00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:06,160
Speaker 14: was AFC Player of the Week, and Belichick told his

938
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:08,200
Speaker 14: sports information department.

939
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:08,480
Speaker 3: To take it down.

940
00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:11,759
Speaker 14: I mean, this is how how he's always been. Yeah,

941
00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:14,279
Speaker 14: and you know what you we put you sol. So

942
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:15,719
Speaker 14: when it's time to go to the Hall of Fame,

943
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:17,879
Speaker 14: people might say, well, this guy's been an a hole

944
00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:20,400
Speaker 14: for his entire life. Here people can be that, but

945
00:51:20,520 --> 00:51:23,759
Speaker 14: he is one. Just one final thing I wanted to

946
00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 14: touch on. Uh Austin, who's coming to Boston for two shows.

947
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:30,719
Speaker 14: I know Stapleton's coming to Boston for two shows. I

948
00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:33,000
Speaker 14: saw him last year, Gillette, and I know he's playing

949
00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:36,600
Speaker 14: Cincinnati a couple of shows. Was there another Noah Kana Boston?

950
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:37,920
Speaker 3: Noah con Is calling that?

951
00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:41,160
Speaker 14: Okay, okay, that should be interesting. He's also they're also

952
00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:42,080
Speaker 14: going to play Cincinnati.

953
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:44,400
Speaker 3: H That's great, Okay, great?

954
00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:47,080
Speaker 14: Yeah, absolutely, I got the stapleson tickets the day of

955
00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:51,719
Speaker 14: the concert, but George Strait was actually the headliner.

956
00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:54,320
Speaker 3: So a great concert. Yeah, it was great.

957
00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:56,880
Speaker 14: So Fellaws, there's always a pleasure talking with you, and

958
00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:58,560
Speaker 14: stay safe if you get any.

959
00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:03,279
Speaker 3: Help, Thank you, Josh, appreciate it. Yeah. The Belichick North

960
00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:05,520
Speaker 3: Carolina Patriots thing is just so bizarre to me.

961
00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:06,239
Speaker 15: You know.

962
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:10,200
Speaker 4: My first thought when it came out was who leaked it?

963
00:52:11,280 --> 00:52:14,600
Speaker 4: And I didn't necessarily think it was Belichick, but I

964
00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:17,280
Speaker 4: think the Don van Nada of the Seth Wickersom story

965
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:21,440
Speaker 4: had four sources, yeah, that confirmed that this was not happening.

966
00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:24,759
Speaker 4: So I would imagine the Belichick camp was one of them.

967
00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:30,680
Speaker 4: But if you really wanted to leak this as the

968
00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:33,160
Speaker 4: Belichick party, you would have done it today.

969
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:35,399
Speaker 3: You would have ruined Super Bowl week.

970
00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:39,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I don't know that it was necessarily you know,

971
00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:42,319
Speaker 4: they may have contributed to that report for sure, But

972
00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:45,920
Speaker 4: I think if I were Belichick and I wanted to

973
00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:47,879
Speaker 4: stick it to the Patriots into the NFL, I would

974
00:52:47,880 --> 00:52:51,680
Speaker 4: have waited until today. Sure, And so maybe he did

975
00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:53,799
Speaker 4: think that it would leak into Super Bowl week and

976
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:57,040
Speaker 4: they did it early. I don't know, but yeah, let's

977
00:52:57,040 --> 00:52:57,399
Speaker 4: do this.

978
00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:01,920
Speaker 3: It's Monday. Can we do a little mock Draft Monday.

979
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:03,040
Speaker 3: There it is.

980
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:09,480
Speaker 1: The pick is in time for mock Draft Monday on

981
00:53:09,680 --> 00:53:11,320
Speaker 1: Cincy three sixty.

982
00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:14,359
Speaker 3: Let's come about that. Let's come how about that? Now,

983
00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:17,560
Speaker 3: a little Draft Monday. A little bit different flair here

984
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:21,560
Speaker 3: because Matt Miller is the subject of this week's mock

985
00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:25,279
Speaker 3: Draft Monday. Matt Miller from ESPN. Yeah, he spent a

986
00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:30,160
Speaker 3: majority of last week at the Senior Bowl, so he

987
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:32,360
Speaker 3: took an up close and personal look, he said it

988
00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:36,400
Speaker 3: over more than one hundred prospects tying into the twenty

989
00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:42,320
Speaker 3: twenty six NFL Draft. He did a two rounder for US.

990
00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:46,360
Speaker 3: Two rounds. Let's start with round one from Matt Miller. Okay,

991
00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:50,520
Speaker 3: no surprise. Is anyone going to come out and be

992
00:53:50,640 --> 00:53:53,439
Speaker 3: that person this year that doesn't have Mendoza going number one.

993
00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:59,200
Speaker 3: I wouldn't think that's just going to be universal. Make

994
00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:03,920
Speaker 3: the pick now, Raiders take Mendoza. Matt Miller has Rvel

995
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:07,759
Speaker 3: Reese going number two to the Jets. I like that move.

996
00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:11,399
Speaker 3: I've seen a lot of rvl Reese.

997
00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:13,840
Speaker 4: What do we make of rvel Reese fell off a

998
00:54:13,840 --> 00:54:16,000
Speaker 4: cliff at the end of last year for Ohio State.

999
00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:19,640
Speaker 4: But he's got all the tools necessary, like I mean

1000
00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:22,879
Speaker 4: physical specimen, speed, explosives, like is.

1001
00:54:22,840 --> 00:54:28,880
Speaker 3: There a is there an NFL? What am I looking at? Comparison?

1002
00:54:28,920 --> 00:54:35,040
Speaker 4: Comparison Michael Parsons Okay, well, okay, okay, speed and power,

1003
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 4: so yes, but he's raw and I don't know that

1004
00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:41,719
Speaker 4: you're gonna plug him in and he's gonna have seventeen

1005
00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:44,200
Speaker 4: sacks for you right away. I mean even at times.

1006
00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:47,080
Speaker 4: Matt Patricia dropped him into coverage last year for Ohio State.

1007
00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:49,000
Speaker 4: That just goes to show you how athletic he is.

1008
00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:52,439
Speaker 4: And Micah Parsons again, is a comparison there, because he'll

1009
00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 4: do that at times as well.

1010
00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:56,839
Speaker 3: Number three for Matt Miller, he has the tackle from

1011
00:54:56,880 --> 00:55:02,319
Speaker 3: Miami Francis Mawigoa. Okay, now where we go? Now, if

1012
00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:04,280
Speaker 3: you followed along to the early part of the Senior

1013
00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:05,879
Speaker 3: Bowl and one of the hard things about the Senior

1014
00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:07,520
Speaker 3: Bowl was he had some bad reps in one on

1015
00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:10,240
Speaker 3: ones that ran over a couple times. But it does happen.

1016
00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:12,680
Speaker 3: Matt Miller liked enough of what he saw to put

1017
00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:16,600
Speaker 3: him number three to the Arizona Cardinals. Number four, Ruben

1018
00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:21,280
Speaker 3: Bain junior. Bain edge rusher goes to the Tennessee Titans

1019
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:28,240
Speaker 3: number five. Carnell Tait, Ohio State Spencer Fanu the offensive

1020
00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:31,799
Speaker 3: tackle at number six. Now, Matt Miller Austin as the

1021
00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:35,560
Speaker 3: Washington commander is taking Caleb Downs with the seventh overall pick. Interesting.

1022
00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:39,600
Speaker 4: So there's been a lot of conversation about a safety

1023
00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:42,759
Speaker 4: in the top ten and the main reason for that

1024
00:55:42,960 --> 00:55:46,520
Speaker 4: being the cost not only this season but down the

1025
00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:51,560
Speaker 4: line for those positions. But you know, Washington could be

1026
00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:54,879
Speaker 4: one of those teams, according to Matt Miller, that could say, hey,

1027
00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:57,480
Speaker 4: we're all right with that. Matt Miller says that there's

1028
00:55:57,520 --> 00:55:59,759
Speaker 4: a criticism of a team using a top ten pick

1029
00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:02,560
Speaker 4: on us safety, but this draft class lacks a ton

1030
00:56:02,719 --> 00:56:06,880
Speaker 4: of elite, top end talent at premium positions. He is

1031
00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:12,520
Speaker 4: elite top end talent at safety. He mentions him in

1032
00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:15,160
Speaker 4: the same name of Derwin James and Kyle Hamilton, who

1033
00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:17,640
Speaker 4: can dictate what an offense is able to do, but

1034
00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:21,319
Speaker 4: also is a matchup problem in multiple alignments. Number eight

1035
00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:26,879
Speaker 4: Jeremiah Love running back to the Saints. Number nine. This

1036
00:56:26,960 --> 00:56:29,120
Speaker 4: is back to back weeks where the Kansas City Chiefs

1037
00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:31,400
Speaker 4: have jumped in front of the bank. Not jumped in

1038
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:33,799
Speaker 4: front there, drafting nine, but taking someone that I've liked

1039
00:56:33,920 --> 00:56:35,759
Speaker 4: for the Bengals, and that would be David Bailey, the

1040
00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:40,239
Speaker 4: edge rusher from Texas Tech, which means Austin with the

1041
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,240
Speaker 4: Bengals on the clock.

1042
00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:46,719
Speaker 3: Now Sonny Styles. Now, no, it's not Sonny Styles. Oh

1043
00:56:46,920 --> 00:56:49,799
Speaker 3: it's also not Jermad McCoy. Oh, okay, good who we

1044
00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:52,680
Speaker 3: talked about last week. Maybe it's Peter Woods. Then it's

1045
00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:53,520
Speaker 3: not Peter Woods.

1046
00:56:53,520 --> 00:56:58,360
Speaker 4: Okay. Maybe it's Kendrick Falk from Auburn mansor Delaney?

1047
00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:06,080
Speaker 3: Who? Mansor Delaney? Who's that a corner? Lsu Why do

1048
00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:08,520
Speaker 3: people think the Bengals went corner? We are back to

1049
00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:12,160
Speaker 3: back weeks of mock draft Mondays with the Bengals drafting

1050
00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:15,200
Speaker 3: a corner at number ten, which means we are closer

1051
00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:17,160
Speaker 3: now than we were last week and me having a

1052
00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:19,360
Speaker 3: meltdown mansor Delaney.

1053
00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:22,760
Speaker 4: According to Tony Pike, a lot of mock drafts had

1054
00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:25,880
Speaker 4: the Bengals drafting the best edge rusher here, with Trey

1055
00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:27,280
Speaker 4: Hendrickson's time likely over.

1056
00:57:27,400 --> 00:57:29,640
Speaker 3: This is Matt Miller's. This is not Miller, but the

1057
00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:33,400
Speaker 3: top three edge rushers are off the board, which presents

1058
00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:36,360
Speaker 3: an interesting decision. Could the Bengals try to bolster the

1059
00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:39,640
Speaker 3: interior d line, but drafting a corner with the skills

1060
00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:41,640
Speaker 3: to excel on the outside of the slot might be

1061
00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:45,720
Speaker 3: more beneficial in the AFC North. He does say Delaney

1062
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:49,440
Speaker 3: best cornerback that he studied in twenty twenty five. Feisty

1063
00:57:49,520 --> 00:57:52,400
Speaker 3: play at the line of scrimmage, excellent instincts in coverage.

1064
00:57:52,440 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 3: But Austin this would probably end the pick right now.

1065
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:56,200
Speaker 3: He didn't have elite measurables.

1066
00:57:56,480 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 4: Oh okay, so he's only six feet tall one hundred

1067
00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:03,360
Speaker 4: and ninety yep. So I'm assuming he would be a

1068
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:05,440
Speaker 4: slot guy. I would think so at that sort of

1069
00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:07,880
Speaker 4: side draft slot at number ten. I don't know that

1070
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:10,720
Speaker 4: you can and maybe not though, I mean, if you're

1071
00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:13,280
Speaker 4: going to have Dax Hill on the team, maybe he

1072
00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:14,840
Speaker 4: is going to play a little bit on the outside,

1073
00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:18,920
Speaker 4: but that is a small player to have on the outside.

1074
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:22,320
Speaker 4: I think in this situation, let me run this by you.

1075
00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:25,680
Speaker 4: You mentioned the top three edge guys in this scenario

1076
00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:31,680
Speaker 4: are gone in Rubin Bain Junior, Rvel Reese, and David Bailey.

1077
00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:36,920
Speaker 4: Caleb Downs is gone in this scenario. What would be

1078
00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:38,960
Speaker 4: the likelihood that you would trade back.

1079
00:58:38,880 --> 00:58:41,800
Speaker 3: In this scenario, if it's trade back or take Mansour,

1080
00:58:42,360 --> 00:58:44,439
Speaker 3: I would trade back. And I hate trading back.

1081
00:58:44,560 --> 00:58:46,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I'd rather if you tell you can

1082
00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:48,600
Speaker 4: go up to number seven and get Caleb Downs, I

1083
00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:49,120
Speaker 4: would do that.

1084
00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:52,080
Speaker 3: Like at this point, Austin.

1085
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:54,520
Speaker 4: If it gives you another first round pick next year, sure,

1086
00:58:55,320 --> 00:58:58,640
Speaker 4: or another second round pick next year or this year.

1087
00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:01,200
Speaker 4: This might be crazy to say at this point of

1088
00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:05,480
Speaker 4: where we're at February second, I would rather take a tackle.

1089
00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:09,920
Speaker 3: Or a wide receiver ahead of a corner. Yeah, I

1090
00:59:09,960 --> 00:59:10,360
Speaker 3: get that.

1091
00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:12,560
Speaker 4: I mean the way I look at it is, I

1092
00:59:12,560 --> 00:59:15,640
Speaker 4: don't try to fit it into the box of who

1093
00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:18,760
Speaker 4: the team needs or what the team needs to me.

1094
00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:21,200
Speaker 4: It's who's the best available player.

1095
00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:21,320
Speaker 3: On the board.

1096
00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:24,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, And according to Matt Miller, here Delany was the

1097
00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:27,360
Speaker 4: best cornerback he studied this year, that's great.

1098
00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:28,560
Speaker 3: I mean Jamald McCoy.

1099
00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:31,280
Speaker 4: McCoy didn't play this People say the same thing about

1100
00:59:31,360 --> 00:59:33,120
Speaker 4: him is like, if he played this year, he probably

1101
00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:34,600
Speaker 4: would have been the top corner available.

1102
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:35,960
Speaker 3: And I'm all for that.

1103
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:40,240
Speaker 4: The draft should be about getting great players, the best

1104
00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:43,200
Speaker 4: players available, and not just filling your needs. If you

1105
00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:45,320
Speaker 4: try to draft to fill your needs, you're gonna fail.

1106
00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:47,080
Speaker 4: What if Carnell Tate was there at number ten? I

1107
00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:49,080
Speaker 4: would take him. You would take him even though there's

1108
00:59:49,080 --> 00:59:52,520
Speaker 4: a need ad in this particular scenario. Yep, if all

1109
00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:56,320
Speaker 4: those other guys are taken, I would take Carnell Tape

1110
00:59:56,360 --> 00:59:59,200
Speaker 4: with Bailey and Bane off the board, in the top ten,

1111
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:02,000
Speaker 4: with Bailey, Bane, Reese and Downs off the.

1112
01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:04,320
Speaker 3: Board, and then both of those, both of those tackles,

1113
01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:06,400
Speaker 3: and I would take one of those tackles as well. Sure,

1114
01:00:07,080 --> 01:00:10,080
Speaker 3: all of that off the board, I would not. I'm

1115
01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:12,400
Speaker 3: not in I'm not in the corner market right now.

1116
01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:13,080
Speaker 3: Mm hmm.

1117
01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:16,760
Speaker 4: What if Jeremiah Love was at ten? No, now that's

1118
01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:18,880
Speaker 4: that's too much of a push. Now, that's just I

1119
01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:19,920
Speaker 4: agree that you don't need that.

1120
01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:23,120
Speaker 3: Matt Miller doing the lord's work did a two round

1121
01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:25,320
Speaker 3: mock draft, so we get a bonus today.

1122
01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:28,880
Speaker 4: Well, now I'm curious to know if you go down

1123
01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:32,320
Speaker 4: this draft. Yeah, the number twelve selection that Sonny Styles

1124
01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:35,480
Speaker 4: is Sonny Styles from Ohio State. Right now, I'm not

1125
01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:38,680
Speaker 4: just being an Ohio State homer here, Like, Sonny Styles

1126
01:00:38,720 --> 01:00:41,240
Speaker 4: is a very good linebacker. He would fix a lot

1127
01:00:41,280 --> 01:00:43,600
Speaker 4: of the Bengals issues. Did him and RVL Reese play

1128
01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:45,920
Speaker 4: in the game against Miami in Indiana?

1129
01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:46,760
Speaker 7: Uh?

1130
01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:47,080
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1131
01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:50,160
Speaker 4: Oh, Now Sonny was banged up. Okay, he had a

1132
01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:54,240
Speaker 4: shoulder injury and I don't know exactly what his status

1133
01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:58,200
Speaker 4: is right now, but he can tackle best tackler on

1134
01:00:58,240 --> 01:01:02,280
Speaker 4: the team very few minutes tatriates. Yes, if he If

1135
01:01:02,280 --> 01:01:04,600
Speaker 4: the Bengals drafted Sunny Styles, he'd be the best tackler

1136
01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:05,680
Speaker 4: on the team the day they draft.

1137
01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:09,000
Speaker 3: So I'd be okay with that right Like again, I'd

1138
01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:12,480
Speaker 3: be I'd be much more comfortable with that over a corner. Yeah.

1139
01:01:12,520 --> 01:01:15,720
Speaker 4: And the other thing about Sonny too is he's NFL lineage.

1140
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:19,160
Speaker 4: His dad played and he started out as a safety.

1141
01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:21,800
Speaker 4: If that goes to show you any sort of the athleticism,

1142
01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:22,640
Speaker 4: yeah that.

1143
01:01:22,600 --> 01:01:28,400
Speaker 3: He has, I'd still like, again, I tackle wide receiver linebacker.

1144
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:30,800
Speaker 3: I would be all in favor over a corner at

1145
01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:36,080
Speaker 3: number ten. I agree. Keldrick Falk is a name we've

1146
01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:38,800
Speaker 3: we've heard from time to time. Matt Miller has him

1147
01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:40,920
Speaker 3: going seventeen to the Detroit Lions. And that's the thing,

1148
01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:44,000
Speaker 3: like if you if you do move back, there are

1149
01:01:44,040 --> 01:01:47,240
Speaker 3: still names on this list. I've I've heard the name

1150
01:01:47,680 --> 01:01:50,919
Speaker 3: Mackay Lemon a lot, the wide receiver of USC. I've

1151
01:01:50,920 --> 01:01:54,280
Speaker 3: heard Keldrick Falk. Those guys are both sixteen and seventeen

1152
01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:59,520
Speaker 3: right now. Emmanuel McNeil Warren is a safety from Toledo.

1153
01:01:59,560 --> 01:02:01,400
Speaker 3: That's put he acted at number eighteen, right down of

1154
01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:07,600
Speaker 3: the buzz. Absolutely, so there are different names out there

1155
01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:10,000
Speaker 3: that that could make sense as well. Now listen to

1156
01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:11,200
Speaker 3: this though, Austin.

1157
01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:13,000
Speaker 4: You know who had a good, good appearance of the

1158
01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:18,480
Speaker 4: Senior Bowl. Who's on Caleb Banks, defensive tackle from Florida.

1159
01:02:18,880 --> 01:02:21,560
Speaker 4: Miller has them going number twenty two. Okay, to the

1160
01:02:21,600 --> 01:02:25,880
Speaker 4: Los Angeles Chargers six foot six, three hundred and thirty

1161
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:32,040
Speaker 4: nine pounder bull rusher. They said, think vitaveya. Oh how's

1162
01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:34,960
Speaker 4: that for a comparison? Okay, okay, sorry, go ahead. Top

1163
01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:38,960
Speaker 4: of round two. Caden McDonald is your first off the

1164
01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:44,920
Speaker 4: board defensive tackle from a tackle rons. Jeremy Bernard wide

1165
01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:49,640
Speaker 4: receiver from Alabama to the Arizona Cardinals.

1166
01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:52,919
Speaker 3: The Bengals, Now this would be something. How about this though,

1167
01:02:52,960 --> 01:02:55,919
Speaker 3: before I get to the Bengals at number thirty nine,

1168
01:02:57,200 --> 01:03:00,640
Speaker 3: the Cleveland Browns, Matt Miller has them taking Jake Golday. Now,

1169
01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:05,080
Speaker 3: that would infuriate me. Bengal or Bearcat And it says

1170
01:03:05,120 --> 01:03:08,040
Speaker 3: this the Browns would hit a home run back to

1171
01:03:08,080 --> 01:03:10,640
Speaker 3: back years after they just did so with Carshon Sweisinger.

1172
01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:15,120
Speaker 3: You put him with Golday, I know, dang, I know.

1173
01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:17,680
Speaker 4: So I was like, if they were to go back

1174
01:03:17,720 --> 01:03:19,400
Speaker 4: to back and get you know, two of the best

1175
01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:22,400
Speaker 4: linebackers at the top of the second round each of

1176
01:03:22,440 --> 01:03:24,720
Speaker 4: the last two years, that would drive me nuts.

1177
01:03:24,760 --> 01:03:27,240
Speaker 3: Now the Bengals pick in the second round is interesting.

1178
01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:31,600
Speaker 3: Peter Woods. This is a guy we once talked about

1179
01:03:31,640 --> 01:03:36,080
Speaker 3: at number ten. Yeah, Peter Woods to me early on

1180
01:03:36,120 --> 01:03:40,160
Speaker 3: in this is one of the most hard players to

1181
01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:41,360
Speaker 3: navigate where he's gonna be.

1182
01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:44,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, it seems like there's been some slipping down the

1183
01:03:44,840 --> 01:03:47,120
Speaker 4: draft boards for Peter Woods.

1184
01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:50,320
Speaker 3: He has the ability, according to Matt Miller to play

1185
01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:53,880
Speaker 3: one or three technique pass rush upside is too good

1186
01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:57,280
Speaker 3: to pass up with a weak defensive tackle class. Again,

1187
01:03:57,760 --> 01:04:00,400
Speaker 3: there was a point we mentioned Peter W. Woods as

1188
01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:03,560
Speaker 3: an option at number ten early in this process. Now,

1189
01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:07,480
Speaker 3: according to Matt Miller, he could be available with the

1190
01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:08,600
Speaker 3: second round selection.

1191
01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:12,240
Speaker 4: So for the Bengals, are you okay with taking a

1192
01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:14,560
Speaker 4: corner at number ten if it means you get Peter

1193
01:04:14,640 --> 01:04:17,800
Speaker 4: Woods at number forty one? No, that would make me

1194
01:04:17,920 --> 01:04:20,520
Speaker 4: even more happy to go and get a wide receiver

1195
01:04:21,120 --> 01:04:23,720
Speaker 4: or a linebacker or an offensive tackle if I know

1196
01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:26,440
Speaker 4: that I can still address defensive tackle at number forty one.

1197
01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:27,080
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1198
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:30,080
Speaker 4: I think another name that's interesting in this particular mock draft.

1199
01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:33,440
Speaker 4: There's a couple of them that go thirty seven and

1200
01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:37,400
Speaker 4: thirty eight before the Bengals pick at forty one. Miller

1201
01:04:37,440 --> 01:04:42,000
Speaker 4: has DiAngelo Ponds, he was quarnerback from Indiana go to

1202
01:04:42,040 --> 01:04:45,760
Speaker 4: the Giants at thirty seven has Dylan Thinnemon, the safety

1203
01:04:45,840 --> 01:04:49,360
Speaker 4: from and I might be saying his name wrong again

1204
01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:54,320
Speaker 4: or again at number thirty eight to Houston. I mean, honestly,

1205
01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:58,560
Speaker 4: any single one of these dudes that's like thirty six

1206
01:04:58,640 --> 01:05:01,320
Speaker 4: through forty I would be Okay with the Bengals taking Yeah,

1207
01:05:01,360 --> 01:05:04,280
Speaker 4: thirty six is a key Mesador, the edge rusher from Miami,

1208
01:05:04,440 --> 01:05:09,600
Speaker 4: yep Ponds, Penemon Thinnamon, Golday, Kamari Ramsey, the safety from

1209
01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:12,400
Speaker 4: USC he has going to the Chiefs and then Peter

1210
01:05:12,480 --> 01:05:13,360
Speaker 4: Woods to the Bengals.

1211
01:05:13,400 --> 01:05:16,480
Speaker 3: Mesador is interesting because he's twenty five. Yeah, and you

1212
01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:20,600
Speaker 3: know we Demetrious Night, we just went down that path. Yeah,

1213
01:05:20,720 --> 01:05:22,479
Speaker 3: so it does limit a little bit of how hard

1214
01:05:22,680 --> 01:05:26,360
Speaker 3: or how high he can rise. That is another rendition

1215
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:29,000
Speaker 3: of mock draft Monday mock draft. Maybe when we get

1216
01:05:29,040 --> 01:05:32,440
Speaker 3: to next Monday, we could find a different position other

1217
01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:39,240
Speaker 3: than the corner, I would hope. So, oh my gosh,

1218
01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:41,600
Speaker 3: I did I. I was surprised on this list to

1219
01:05:41,640 --> 01:05:44,240
Speaker 3: see Jake Golday climb that high already.

1220
01:05:44,920 --> 01:05:49,640
Speaker 4: That's definitely a much different mock draft than what I've

1221
01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:50,720
Speaker 4: been used to seeing.

1222
01:05:51,160 --> 01:05:53,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, last couple of weeks, if you look though at

1223
01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:56,440
Speaker 3: just the production of Golday one hundred and four tackles,

1224
01:05:56,480 --> 01:05:59,440
Speaker 3: three and a half sacks. He was on the preseason

1225
01:05:59,440 --> 01:06:02,520
Speaker 3: list from Bruce Speldman, the freak list just all over

1226
01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:07,480
Speaker 3: the field. Again. You mentioned pair him with Schweisinger. That

1227
01:06:07,560 --> 01:06:11,320
Speaker 3: could be an interesting combination for the Cleveland Browns, who

1228
01:06:11,320 --> 01:06:14,720
Speaker 3: have done very well in the draft recently. More to

1229
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,919
Speaker 3: look out for, but for now we'll take a break

1230
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:21,160
Speaker 3: and hope that the weeks ahead produced something other than

1231
01:06:21,160 --> 01:06:24,360
Speaker 3: a corner for mock draft. Monday on ESPN fifteen thirty

1232

Speaker 4: Clean and don't be mean, and a sprinkle, sprinkle, drip drip.

1240
01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:51,160
Speaker 3: It's that time for talkbacks.

1241
01:06:51,400 --> 01:06:57,640
Speaker 17: It's our favorite part of SINC three sixty. So Austin, buddy,

01:07:22,520 --> 01:07:24,080

Speaker 15: The Reds fans are very special announcement.

01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:30,440
Speaker 3: Spin it out, Joe let's go.

1251
01:07:32,200 --> 01:07:37,680
Speaker 15: Now batting for the Rads number seven a Rainio swarrerat.

1252
01:07:39,120 --> 01:07:41,400
Speaker 4: Now, one of the first things I thought of is

1253
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:45,080
Speaker 4: what number is he gonna wear? That's great, Spencer Steer's

1254
01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:49,440
Speaker 4: number seven. He's been twenty eight in Seattle. That's available.

1255
01:07:49,520 --> 01:07:51,400
Speaker 4: Nick Martinez has been shown the door.

1256
01:07:51,520 --> 01:07:53,240
Speaker 3: Yeah. By the way, Austin Hayes did sign with the

1257
01:07:53,280 --> 01:07:55,560
Speaker 3: White Sox. Oh yeah, we forgot to mention that. Good

1258
01:07:55,600 --> 01:07:58,040
Speaker 3: for him. I guess, yeah, what number to swap?

1259
01:07:58,320 --> 01:08:02,560
Speaker 18: Greg Hey, Tony know, in Wes Moller's press conference, he said, well,

1260
01:08:02,600 --> 01:08:05,280
Speaker 18: you know, recently we played in three different time zones.

1261
01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:08,800
Speaker 3: We've been missing some guys.

1262
01:08:08,360 --> 01:08:12,840
Speaker 19: That is understandable, But then he says, the guys showed character.

1263
01:08:13,280 --> 01:08:15,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, would you tell me? Do you know what does

1264
01:08:15,720 --> 01:08:19,360
Speaker 3: that mean? I didn't understand that one. Don't you worry

1265
01:08:19,360 --> 01:08:20,920
Speaker 3: about a thing, Greg, because we're going to play that

1266
01:08:20,960 --> 01:08:23,679
Speaker 3: Aulio in hour number three and I've got many things

1267
01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:27,880
Speaker 3: that I have in mind on that character. Did you

1268
01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:35,760
Speaker 3: I said, again, how many smokers cough did you have

1269
01:08:35,880 --> 01:08:37,560
Speaker 3: over the weekend. I'm going to dive into this in

1270
01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:41,919
Speaker 3: hour three. But the quote Austin, it isn't an excuse

1271
01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:45,040
Speaker 3: at all. I don't believe in that crap. But then

1272
01:08:45,080 --> 01:08:47,360
Speaker 3: he proceeds to give the excuse, but we've been in

1273
01:08:47,400 --> 01:08:51,200
Speaker 3: three time zones and six days, we've got multiple bodies down.

1274
01:08:51,600 --> 01:08:54,519
Speaker 3: That's a strange situation. Going from Arizona back home then

1275
01:08:54,560 --> 01:09:01,120
Speaker 3: to Texas. People would be really proud to hear how

1276
01:09:01,120 --> 01:09:05,120
Speaker 3: hard this team competed in front. Sounded like Mick Crona

1277
01:09:05,240 --> 01:09:06,360
Speaker 3: and how they're handling the night.

1278
01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:10,479
Speaker 15: I don't figure out something Fellas saying that the demos

1279
01:09:10,479 --> 01:09:14,080
Speaker 15: are having projected fifty six or fifty seven million cap space,

1280
01:09:14,520 --> 01:09:16,880
Speaker 15: But I thought, not long until you guys were talking

1281
01:09:16,920 --> 01:09:20,280
Speaker 15: around seventy six million. What am I missing here?

1282
01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:21,519
Speaker 3: Thanks for that.

1283
01:09:22,600 --> 01:09:25,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've been trying to figure that out because I've

1284
01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:28,960
Speaker 4: been saying that for a while, and I've been referencing

1285
01:09:29,040 --> 01:09:31,479
Speaker 4: over the cap and the cap calculator, and it had

1286
01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:34,559
Speaker 4: them at like sixty to seventy million for almost the

1287
01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:37,800
Speaker 4: whole season, and now it's down to closer to forty

1288
01:09:37,800 --> 01:09:40,519
Speaker 4: five to fifty. Now the salary cap is going to

1289
01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:42,360
Speaker 4: go up. That was something I had in my mind

1290
01:09:42,360 --> 01:09:45,040
Speaker 4: the whole time. Sure, so that was part of my calculation.

1291
01:09:45,240 --> 01:09:49,320
Speaker 4: The other thing I think they extended Tanner Hudson, Mitchell

1292
01:09:49,360 --> 01:09:52,600
Speaker 4: Tinsley and signed all those dudes to reserve in future contracts.

1293
01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:55,320
Speaker 4: That's not twenty million dollars worth of money, correct, So

1294
01:09:55,479 --> 01:10:01,760
Speaker 4: I don't know why that calculation is different. And then

1295
01:10:01,960 --> 01:10:07,479
Speaker 4: they generally keep ten to twelve million dollars for in

1296
01:10:07,680 --> 01:10:11,639
Speaker 4: season stuff and free agents and draft class and all

1297
01:10:11,680 --> 01:10:16,719
Speaker 4: that other stuff. So yeah, I don't know why their

1298
01:10:16,920 --> 01:10:20,400
Speaker 4: their calculation was so different than what it is.

1299
01:10:20,520 --> 01:10:20,760
Speaker 3: Now.

1300
01:10:21,479 --> 01:10:24,960
Speaker 20: What's up, guys, Adam here? Welcome back Gino. Every day

1301

Speaker 20: bringing back Queege and Garrett for crowd control. When we

Speaker 3: back in.

1311
01:10:54,200 --> 01:10:56,160

1347
01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:48,080
Speaker 21: He hits home runs. But that's not what the Reds

1348
01:12:48,120 --> 01:12:51,840
Speaker 21: are about. According to Nick Crawl, sounds like they're trying

1349
01:12:51,840 --> 01:12:54,800
Speaker 21: to fit a square peg into a round hole. And

1350
01:12:54,880 --> 01:12:57,640
Speaker 21: speaking of geometry, it's off to fix Nancy and I

1351
01:12:58,080 --> 01:13:02,320
Speaker 21: our favorite geometric meal, frozen pizza. It's the only meal

1352
01:13:02,360 --> 01:13:05,400
Speaker 21: that's round, comes in a square box, yet you eat

1353
01:13:05,439 --> 01:13:06,400
Speaker 21: it in triangles.

1354
01:13:07,880 --> 01:13:12,640
Speaker 3: It's a lot going on. This is good acting made America.

1355
01:13:12,680 --> 01:13:18,679
Speaker 23: Comes the lights of shining right, the craft and way

1356
01:13:18,920 --> 01:13:24,479
Speaker 23: no spark one big back to take things right, and.

1357
01:13:24,640 --> 01:13:26,680
Speaker 21: He lights of a candle.

1358
01:13:26,680 --> 01:13:31,400
Speaker 5: And says, I will show you the way. His voice

1359
01:13:31,479 --> 01:13:32,960
Speaker 5: was coming from the ball.

1360
01:13:34,439 --> 01:13:38,320
Speaker 24: That I heard him say. He's a gym day to day.

1361
01:13:40,040 --> 01:13:47,040
Speaker 24: Welcome home, Mayo Hano. Wow, that'sh lovely face.

01:13:52,640 --> 01:13:58,280
Speaker 23: Lots of home runs from Mayo hanios for he is

1365
01:13:58,400 --> 01:14:02,360
Speaker 23: good a year Reds run off the space.

1366
01:14:02,600 --> 01:14:03,040
Speaker 7: It's me.

1367
01:14:04,880 --> 01:14:10,200
Speaker 3: Wow, can we get that to Suarez? Ryan, Oh my gosh.

1368
01:14:09,880 --> 01:14:14,560

01:14:18,200 --> 01:14:21,920
Speaker 24: I heard him say he's a Jim Day two days.

1371
01:14:26,439 --> 01:14:30,439
Speaker 3: Oh gosh, this is so awesome. Every day is Jim Day.

1373
01:14:36,920 --> 01:14:42,519
Speaker 25: adopted the DH roll, because even though Suarez hit two

1374
01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:47,840
Speaker 25: twenty eight coming off the bench fits the formula. Call

1375
01:14:47,920 --> 01:14:53,479
Speaker 25: me a fool, id buy in. Let's freaking go all right,

1376

1448
01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:21,640
Speaker 3: not ready to say they win a playoffs. I'm not

1449
01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:24,599
Speaker 3: there yet, but I will say they're better today than

01:18:24,600 --> 01:18:25,439
Speaker 3: when the season ended.

1451
01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:28,400

1481
01:19:48,120 --> 01:19:49,200
Speaker 16: long as he played defense.

1482
01:19:49,320 --> 01:19:53,839
Speaker 3: It's all about power. There we go. It's the Kroger

1489
01:20:13,479 --> 01:20:18,320
Speaker 29: about getting Suarez, And you know, I'm actually happier having

1490
01:20:18,400 --> 01:20:21,840
Speaker 29: him for a year than Schwarber for five. So a

1491
01:20:21,880 --> 01:20:24,479
Speaker 29: lot of money invested in five years, and lord knows

1492
01:20:24,520 --> 01:20:26,800
Speaker 29: what's going to happen after five years, so I'm happy

1493
01:20:26,800 --> 01:20:29,680
Speaker 29: with that. Also, do you think Suarez could be a

1494
01:20:29,760 --> 01:20:34,160
Speaker 29: leader which we need on the team? Lastly, can we

1495
01:20:34,280 --> 01:20:38,240
Speaker 29: please get rid of Wes Miller. I'm done with him.

1496
01:20:38,360 --> 01:20:40,080
Speaker 29: He's had five years making you.

1497
01:20:40,160 --> 01:20:42,800
Speaker 3: Only got a few more games left. I think, I think,

1498
01:20:44,360 --> 01:20:46,639
Speaker 3: I do think. Well, it depends does he make the crown?

1499
01:20:47,920 --> 01:20:49,000
Speaker 3: Did they advance in the crown?

1500
01:20:49,560 --> 01:20:51,840
Speaker 4: You're you're part of the problem. By the way, when

1501
01:20:51,880 --> 01:20:54,920
Speaker 4: you do stuff like this, you're complicit. I just want

1502
01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:58,120
Speaker 4: you to know, Uh, you are part of the problem.

1503
01:20:58,200 --> 01:21:02,599
Speaker 4: I've always been part of the problem. Suarez as a leader,

1504
01:21:02,640 --> 01:21:04,519
Speaker 4: is that one of the things maybe we haven't talked

1505
01:21:04,520 --> 01:21:07,439
Speaker 4: on enough that this we we talked last year. Who's

1506
01:21:07,479 --> 01:21:08,520
Speaker 4: the leader in the clubhouse?

1507
01:21:08,600 --> 01:21:08,880
Speaker 7: Sure?

1508
01:21:09,320 --> 01:21:09,559
Speaker 23: Uh?

1509
01:21:09,600 --> 01:21:12,000
Speaker 3: Does Suarez fit into that role as well? For this team.

1510
01:21:12,080 --> 01:21:13,920
Speaker 4: I would think I would think he would be a

1511
01:21:13,960 --> 01:21:15,640
Speaker 4: positive influence on those guys.

1512
01:21:15,920 --> 01:21:20,879
Speaker 7: Hey, guys, Hey, I'm back in Cincinnati, back at your three.

1513
01:21:22,600 --> 01:21:24,800
Speaker 3: We're just we gotta be careful, you know who I

1514
01:21:24,840 --> 01:21:28,320
Speaker 3: was thinking about listening. Hey, guys, where's George Ben George?

1515
01:21:28,320 --> 01:21:33,679
Speaker 3: Who from the valley? What happened to him? Ohio State one? Oh,

1516
01:21:33,960 --> 01:21:37,200
Speaker 3: he's just done. It's There's one of two things has happened.

1517
01:21:37,240 --> 01:21:38,040
Speaker 3: Either he is.

1518
01:21:44,800 --> 01:21:49,559
Speaker 4: Either he's locked up somewhere, which I feel like is

1519
01:21:49,560 --> 01:21:54,000
Speaker 4: the most likely scenario, or he's taken a year off

1520
01:21:54,120 --> 01:21:57,200
Speaker 4: until Michigan beats Ohio State again. Man, or maybe five

1521
01:21:57,280 --> 01:22:02,320
Speaker 4: years or maybe who knows, But he's a count there.

1522
01:22:02,360 --> 01:22:02,679
Speaker 3: Man.

1523
01:22:04,640 --> 01:22:06,519
Speaker 4: There's an old saying out there, this is what's the

1524
01:22:06,560 --> 01:22:08,880
Speaker 4: face of a coward the back of his head as

1525
01:22:08,880 --> 01:22:13,920
Speaker 4: he runs from war. Well, George is running and maybe

1526
01:22:13,960 --> 01:22:16,559
Speaker 4: he got caught. Maybe he's in the clink, or maybe

1527
01:22:16,560 --> 01:22:18,200
Speaker 4: those heaters finally caught up to him.

1528
01:22:18,280 --> 01:22:19,800
Speaker 3: Dang, who knows.

1529
01:22:20,560 --> 01:22:22,400
Speaker 30: I was at the bar with my buddy yesterday and

1530
01:22:22,520 --> 01:22:24,439
Speaker 30: we drew straws that you got to do a snippers

1531
01:22:24,479 --> 01:22:27,280
Speaker 30: fall shop. No one guy left. He drew the small

1532
01:22:27,320 --> 01:22:30,200
Speaker 30: strawl and refused it, so I stuff him and did it.

1533
01:22:30,439 --> 01:22:32,679
Speaker 30: It really wasn't that bad. I took him back clicker

1534
01:22:32,760 --> 01:22:35,479
Speaker 30: stace away. I think I prefer that over a street

1535
01:22:35,479 --> 01:22:38,280
Speaker 30: shot at Yager yeagger bomb. But yeah, it wasn't that bad.

1536
01:22:38,520 --> 01:22:41,320
Speaker 3: Okay. See, I was thinking about here to step up

1537
01:22:41,360 --> 01:22:45,120
Speaker 3: and did it without like having to have his arm twisted.

1538
01:22:45,240 --> 01:22:47,080
Speaker 4: I was thinking about this like maybe it's one of

1539
01:22:47,120 --> 01:22:49,439
Speaker 4: those things where you're like, wait, that's not as bad

1540
01:22:49,520 --> 01:22:50,120
Speaker 4: as it sound.

1541
01:22:50,160 --> 01:22:52,400
Speaker 27: It feels like it needs you roll it down here

1542
01:22:52,479 --> 01:22:55,400
Speaker 27: in Filemouth. I was listening to the out Man yesterday

1543
01:22:55,439 --> 01:22:56,600
Speaker 27: on seven hundred.

1544
01:22:57,160 --> 01:22:59,240
Speaker 3: Getting fed a spoonful of continuity.

1545
01:23:00,080 --> 01:23:02,479
Speaker 27: What all of a sudden breaking news what he said,

1546
01:23:03,120 --> 01:23:07,120
Speaker 27: the reds a mad An acquisition I thought for sure

1547
01:23:07,280 --> 01:23:13,720
Speaker 27: was gonna be Mike Mustakas and alone. Behold heares well.

1548
01:23:13,760 --> 01:23:15,880
Speaker 27: I spit my continuity all over the old lady. She

1549
01:23:16,240 --> 01:23:17,040
Speaker 27: was throwing a fit.

1550
01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:22,200
Speaker 3: Let's go boy, oh boy, Hi guys, it's bake.

1551
01:23:22,880 --> 01:23:26,600
Speaker 31: Really excited about Geno Suarez coming back home, and a

1552
01:23:26,680 --> 01:23:28,680
Speaker 31: little curious of what he may or may not do

1553
01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:33,280
Speaker 31: with the hair this year, Phil Castellini was quoted as saying,

1554
01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:37,519
Speaker 31: really excited about Gino coming back I think he's totally

1555
01:23:37,600 --> 01:23:41,439
Speaker 31: capable of a three, four, maybe even five bobblehead season.

1556
01:23:41,600 --> 01:23:44,680
Speaker 3: Oh where are you gonna go? Yep? Didn't think of

1557
01:23:44,720 --> 01:23:48,759
Speaker 3: that value. So we've got clubhouse value, we've got bobblehead value.

1558
01:23:48,880 --> 01:23:53,080
Speaker 4: There is a bobblehead game or two. Uh what about

1559
01:23:53,080 --> 01:23:56,679
Speaker 4: the Suarez Jim Da Duel bobblehead. That's a brilliant idea

1560
01:23:56,840 --> 01:23:59,080
Speaker 4: I saw. I think it was Craig Sandlin who had

1561
01:23:59,120 --> 01:24:01,679
Speaker 4: that idea. That is a brilliant idea.

1562
01:24:01,880 --> 01:24:04,880
Speaker 3: I'm in. I forget who I saw that had that

1563
01:24:04,960 --> 01:24:06,200
Speaker 3: idea that, yes.

1564
01:24:06,400 --> 01:24:09,559
Speaker 4: Do it, and you might be able to now because

1565
01:24:09,800 --> 01:24:12,320
Speaker 4: Major League Baseball is making the games, so it's not

1566
01:24:12,479 --> 01:24:14,559
Speaker 4: like you got to put a FANDUL logo on Jim's

1567
01:24:14,600 --> 01:24:15,080
Speaker 4: T shirt.

1568
01:24:15,200 --> 01:24:15,360
Speaker 7: Yep.

1569
01:24:16,720 --> 01:24:19,240
Speaker 32: So yesterday I learned I'm hosting a Super Bowl party

1570
01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:22,680
Speaker 32: this coming song Congratulations. So it got me thinking what

1571
01:24:22,760 --> 01:24:25,360
Speaker 32: am I going to cook? And chicken wings are always

1572
01:24:25,400 --> 01:24:27,880
Speaker 32: an easy go to. I usually do them every year,

1573
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:30,559
Speaker 32: but I think this year I'll fry the chicken wings

1574
01:24:30,680 --> 01:24:33,240
Speaker 32: a couple of different different sauces.

1575
01:24:33,320 --> 01:24:35,639
Speaker 3: Tony, what is your go to Super Bowl food?

1576
01:24:35,760 --> 01:24:39,679
Speaker 8: Is it the Dino Chicken, Nuggies, Little Hot dogs.

1577
01:24:39,720 --> 01:24:42,719
Speaker 3: What is it you guys, like, what's your favorite Super

1578
01:24:42,720 --> 01:24:44,920
Speaker 3: Bowl food? Thank you, pankys man, It's easy.

1579
01:24:45,560 --> 01:24:48,760
Speaker 4: Hanky panky thanky panky sounds good like pigs in a

1580
01:24:48,800 --> 01:24:50,720
Speaker 4: blanket sounds pretty good.

1581
01:24:51,439 --> 01:24:54,840
Speaker 5: What's up, Top? What's up? Hey?

1582
01:24:54,880 --> 01:24:57,479
Speaker 33: I was watching Get Up this morning and there was

1583
01:24:57,520 --> 01:25:00,720
Speaker 33: a lot of talks about teams CHICAO the Bengals for

1584
01:25:00,840 --> 01:25:05,800
Speaker 33: Joe Burrow and me living in Ohio, living in Cincinnati.

1585
01:25:06,000 --> 01:25:08,840
Speaker 33: I know that would never happen about the Bengals trading

1586
01:25:08,920 --> 01:25:10,280
Speaker 33: Joe Burrow, but just.

1587
01:25:10,320 --> 01:25:16,040
Speaker 5: Hypothetical, what would y'all proposals be?

1588
01:25:16,280 --> 01:25:16,320
Speaker 11: Like?

1589
01:25:16,360 --> 01:25:18,680
Speaker 33: If a team code want to get Joe Burrow, what

1590
01:25:18,760 --> 01:25:20,439
Speaker 33: would y'all need to make that trade?

1591
01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:22,120
Speaker 3: Go through ten first round picks?

1592
01:25:22,600 --> 01:25:22,800
Speaker 15: Yeah?

1593
01:25:22,840 --> 01:25:25,439
Speaker 4: I don't even say, like half your defense. I don't

1594
01:25:25,439 --> 01:25:27,920
Speaker 4: even think that that number would exist.

1595
01:25:28,680 --> 01:25:30,680
Speaker 3: I really don't. I don't think it does either for me.

1596
01:25:32,160 --> 01:25:34,439
Speaker 3: But it would start with ten first round picks? Yeah?

1597
01:25:34,920 --> 01:25:35,719
Speaker 5: What's up Tony?

1598
01:25:35,800 --> 01:25:36,120
Speaker 3: What's up?

1599
01:25:36,200 --> 01:25:36,479
Speaker 5: Odi?

1600
01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:37,200
Speaker 34: Lean?

1601
01:25:37,280 --> 01:25:39,240
Speaker 5: The truck here would have first ever doubled it?

1602
01:25:40,000 --> 01:25:40,160
Speaker 24: Hey?

1603
01:25:40,439 --> 01:25:41,960
Speaker 5: Just want to get shout out to the Reds.

1604
01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:44,479
Speaker 33: I know we give them a lot of crap and everything,

1605
01:25:44,760 --> 01:25:48,400
Speaker 33: but I gotta applaud them for the move that they

1606
01:25:48,520 --> 01:25:50,280
Speaker 33: made yesterday, man salute.

1607
01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:56,760
Speaker 3: I like that might be a casual take.

1608
01:25:57,400 --> 01:26:00,360
Speaker 20: But this swar Is signing got me more excited for

1609
01:26:00,439 --> 01:26:03,679
Speaker 20: the Red season that I am for the upcoming Bengals season.

1610
01:26:05,560 --> 01:26:07,080
Speaker 3: Whoo, that's great.

1611
01:26:07,200 --> 01:26:10,000
Speaker 18: Oh hey, guys, sounds like I was wondering if we

1612
01:26:10,000 --> 01:26:12,400
Speaker 18: could get an update on the Global Gaming League.

1613
01:26:12,960 --> 01:26:15,200
Speaker 28: I used to hear their commercial every seven seconds on

1614
01:26:15,320 --> 01:26:17,000
Speaker 28: the station, and it's just gone.

1615
01:26:17,160 --> 01:26:20,080
Speaker 3: It's wondering what happened. Thanks. The GGL is that where

1616
01:26:20,120 --> 01:26:22,960
Speaker 3: I actually made a wager last year and lost. No,

1617
01:26:23,400 --> 01:26:25,320
Speaker 3: I've been in some kind of league. I think that

1618
01:26:25,560 --> 01:26:28,759
Speaker 3: was the CDL Okay, which was the Call of Duty League. Okay,

1619
01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:33,720
Speaker 3: I don't know much about the GGL. Hey, guys, right,

1620
01:26:36,280 --> 01:26:37,120
Speaker 3: I tell you why now.

1621
01:26:37,200 --> 01:26:39,800
Speaker 35: The most shocking thing to me in twenty twenty six,

1622
01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:43,479
Speaker 35: probably probably this millennia, is the fact that you have

1623
01:26:43,680 --> 01:26:48,040
Speaker 35: never once tried beef jerkey. That is shocking and unacceptable.

1624
01:26:48,320 --> 01:26:52,400
Speaker 35: You've never put the sweet hearted cured meats in your

1625
01:26:52,520 --> 01:26:55,000
Speaker 35: mouth and chewed on them and got them stuck in

1626
01:26:55,080 --> 01:27:00,200
Speaker 35: your dental work. It's a flaw, Pal, you gotta fix its.

1627
01:27:00,240 --> 01:27:02,679
Speaker 3: Thought about I saw some jerky at the gas station yesday,

1628
01:27:02,680 --> 01:27:04,120
Speaker 3: I almost got something and then I just did.

1629
01:27:04,280 --> 01:27:08,240

Speaker 4: in a row that they have lost. Hopefully they can

1691
01:30:15,520 --> 01:30:17,960
Speaker 4: battle back and get healthy enough in time for the tournament.

1692
01:30:18,160 --> 01:30:22,839
Speaker 3: Winners. By the tournament, I mean the Horizon League, Xavier, Kentucky, Louisville,

1693
01:30:23,000 --> 01:30:27,200
Speaker 3: Miami all win. We will highlight three of those in

1694
01:30:27,320 --> 01:30:31,200
Speaker 3: our number three. We'll talk about Xavier, we'll talk about Miami,

1695
01:30:31,720 --> 01:30:33,680
Speaker 3: and we'll talk about the Bearcats. We'll look ahead to

1696
01:30:33,720 --> 01:30:37,000
Speaker 3: the week ahead in college basketball, we've got to start

1697
01:30:37,040 --> 01:30:39,720
Speaker 3: talking some Super Bowl as well. I know we have

1698
01:30:39,840 --> 01:30:42,000
Speaker 3: time this week as well to get more into that.

1699
01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:45,400
Speaker 3: As Mike mentioned when he called into earlier today, just

1700
01:30:45,479 --> 01:30:48,320
Speaker 3: the fifth time in the history of the Super Bowl

1701
01:30:48,840 --> 01:30:52,400
Speaker 3: where both teams participating had not made the playoffs in

1702
01:30:52,439 --> 01:30:56,200
Speaker 3: the previous season. I think there's something significant there as

1703
01:30:56,240 --> 01:30:58,479
Speaker 3: you go ahead and spin that forward to maybe the

1704
01:30:58,520 --> 01:31:03,000
Speaker 3: Cincinnati Bengals. Also the Gust Bus Austin Gus Melson, he's

1705
01:31:03,040 --> 01:31:06,439
Speaker 3: hanging it up. He's retiring after thirty five years in coaching.

1706
01:31:06,640 --> 01:31:07,720
Speaker 3: Thanks for the memories, Gus.

1707
01:31:07,840 --> 01:31:09,519
Speaker 4: That was a while where the Gust Bus had things

1708
01:31:09,560 --> 01:31:11,560
Speaker 4: rolling at Auburn. Oh, I mean you couldn't buy a

1709
01:31:11,640 --> 01:31:15,280
Speaker 4: ticket to get on the Gus bus rolling.

1710
01:31:16,360 --> 01:31:19,160
Speaker 3: Now coming to an end. It hit its final stop.

1711
01:31:19,560 --> 01:31:22,280
Speaker 3: What was its final stop? I don't know. Florida State.

1712
01:31:22,320 --> 01:31:25,000
Speaker 4: Here was the OC in Florida State last year. So

1713
01:31:26,240 --> 01:31:28,760
Speaker 4: that is uh, that's where the gust bus officially has.

1714
01:31:28,840 --> 01:31:31,920
Speaker 3: Uh has uh? I know a guy who played for

1715
01:31:32,000 --> 01:31:33,840
Speaker 3: Gus Melson. Oh, that's right.

1716
01:31:33,880 --> 01:31:35,720
Speaker 4: A lot of good things to say about him, that's right.

1717
01:31:36,240 --> 01:31:39,200
Speaker 4: I didn't mind Gus. Yeah, I don't know anything about him. Really,

1718
01:31:39,400 --> 01:31:43,320
Speaker 4: I thought he was from Auburn. I think, yeah, what

1719
01:31:43,360 --> 01:31:45,280
Speaker 4: do you think of when you think of Tommy Tubberville Auburn?

1720
01:31:45,439 --> 01:31:47,559
Speaker 4: Go to Hell, get a job there you go. Our

1721

Speaker 4: number three is next. Since he three sixty ESBN fifteen

Speaker 3: Welcome back our three since e three to sixty ESBN

01:32:15,320 --> 01:32:17,240
Speaker 3: fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station.

1728
01:32:17,439 --> 01:32:17,680
Speaker 37: And a.

1729
01:32:19,479 --> 01:32:21,840
Speaker 3: Good way to get the Monday started, because what we're

1730
01:32:21,880 --> 01:32:24,160
Speaker 3: going to do here, Austin is something we'd like to

1731
01:32:24,240 --> 01:32:27,360
Speaker 3: do during the season. What happens to winners on this show,

1732
01:32:27,479 --> 01:32:30,840
Speaker 3: they go first. Winners go first on this show. So

1733
01:32:30,920 --> 01:32:34,120
Speaker 3: shout out to Louisville, a winner over the weekend over SMU,

1734
01:32:34,200 --> 01:32:38,000
Speaker 3: shout out to Kentucky, the Kentucky Wildcats, who I can't

1735
01:32:38,040 --> 01:32:42,840
Speaker 3: figure out Austin, and I've tried to. Kentucky was coming

1736
01:32:42,920 --> 01:32:48,160
Speaker 3: off a brutal stretch, a brutal game against Vanderbilt. They

1737
01:32:48,200 --> 01:32:50,799
Speaker 3: lost eighty to fifty five after putting together five wins,

1738
01:32:52,000 --> 01:32:53,760
Speaker 3: and then they went on the road to Arkansas and

1739
01:32:53,960 --> 01:32:58,280
Speaker 3: despite being teed up what felt like I think four

1740
01:32:58,439 --> 01:33:03,320
Speaker 3: times in the second half, Tucky received technical fouls. Despite that,

1741
01:33:04,240 --> 01:33:07,280
Speaker 3: Kentucky was able to weather the storm in Arkansas and

1742
01:33:07,360 --> 01:33:10,679
Speaker 3: beat the Razorbacks eighty five to seventy seven. So shout

1743
01:33:10,760 --> 01:33:15,120
Speaker 3: out to the Kentucky Wildcats. They moved to six and

1744
01:33:15,320 --> 01:33:19,679
Speaker 3: three in the SEC. That's good enough to be tied

1745
01:33:19,760 --> 01:33:22,880
Speaker 3: for third behind Florida at seven and two in Texas

1746
01:33:22,920 --> 01:33:27,360
Speaker 3: A and m Who's at seven and one. So a

1747
01:33:27,479 --> 01:33:31,719
Speaker 3: very up and down season so far for Kentucky. That'll

1748
01:33:31,760 --> 01:33:34,439
Speaker 3: continue in just a couple of days as they host

1749
01:33:34,560 --> 01:33:40,600
Speaker 3: Oklahoma at Raupp Arena later this week. The Xavier Musketeers

1750
01:33:41,840 --> 01:33:45,360
Speaker 3: after again a very up and down stretch. That's the

1751
01:33:45,479 --> 01:33:49,800
Speaker 3: hardest thing. It feels like the consistency locally, it just

1752
01:33:49,880 --> 01:33:52,080
Speaker 3: hasn't been there this year to where it has been

1753
01:33:52,120 --> 01:33:55,519
Speaker 3: in years past. Xavior has been up at times, they

1754
01:33:55,560 --> 01:33:57,880
Speaker 3: were trending down at times. In fact, going into the

1755
01:33:57,920 --> 01:34:00,400
Speaker 3: game against the Paul on Saturday, they had fallen in

1756
01:34:00,600 --> 01:34:04,920
Speaker 3: three straight games Creighton, Saint John's and Seaton Hall, and

1757
01:34:05,000 --> 01:34:09,080
Speaker 3: they were falling behind against the Paul in the second

1758
01:34:09,080 --> 01:34:14,200
Speaker 3: half by eighteen points before starting a rally that ended

1759
01:34:14,800 --> 01:34:18,320
Speaker 3: with a walk off to beat the Paul sixty eight

1760
01:34:18,840 --> 01:34:21,840
Speaker 3: to sixty six. We played the audio a little bit earlier.

1761
01:34:21,960 --> 01:34:26,719
Speaker 3: Xavier was led again by Trey Carroll, who had twenty

1762
01:34:26,800 --> 01:34:31,479
Speaker 3: one points. He has been unbelievably good for Xavier this year.

1763
01:34:31,960 --> 01:34:35,360
Speaker 3: Who continues to find ways to win, who continues to

1764
01:34:35,479 --> 01:34:38,600
Speaker 3: find ways to put good product out there. I know

1765
01:34:38,680 --> 01:34:43,240
Speaker 3: it's not clean all the time, but I still contend,

1766
01:34:43,479 --> 01:34:46,640
Speaker 3: as Xavier fans out there that I've talked to, that

1767
01:34:46,760 --> 01:34:50,040
Speaker 3: the future feels very bright with Richard Patino as the

1768
01:34:50,120 --> 01:34:53,080
Speaker 3: head coach because of the improvements that this team continues

1769
01:34:53,200 --> 01:34:56,600
Speaker 3: to make as the season wears on. Do we have

1770
01:34:56,680 --> 01:35:00,600
Speaker 3: a little Richard Patino? After the win on Saturday, we

1771
01:35:00,720 --> 01:35:03,800
Speaker 3: sure do. Can we play some of that? Here's coach Well?

1772
01:35:03,800 --> 01:35:07,960
Speaker 38: An amazing win. To be down nineteen in the second

1773
01:35:08,040 --> 01:35:13,759
Speaker 38: half out of timeouts, nothing going our way, to scratch, claw,

1774
01:35:14,120 --> 01:35:16,800
Speaker 38: block everything out and just get one stop at a time,

1775
01:35:16,920 --> 01:35:20,360
Speaker 38: one rebound at a time, was phenomenal. You know, I

1776
01:35:20,479 --> 01:35:22,720
Speaker 38: really challenged our guys after the Seaton Hall game and

1777
01:35:22,800 --> 01:35:26,479
Speaker 38: talked about toughness, and that was true toughness.

1778
01:35:26,520 --> 01:35:28,080
Speaker 3: That it's fine. So very proud of our guys.

1779
01:35:30,160 --> 01:35:32,479
Speaker 37: A lot of your wins this season have carried a

1780
01:35:32,560 --> 01:35:35,840
Speaker 37: common theme of, you know, offensive explosion, whether it's the

1781
01:35:35,880 --> 01:35:38,840
Speaker 37: Jovon entre kind of going off and leading these guys.

1782
01:35:38,920 --> 01:35:40,400
Speaker 3: But tonight you hold.

1783
01:35:40,280 --> 01:35:42,880
Speaker 37: Them to sixty six points in the last five minutes.

1784
01:35:42,880 --> 01:35:45,120
Speaker 37: I think they just had the CD gun three in

1785
01:35:45,200 --> 01:35:47,320
Speaker 37: the final ten seconds. So how proud of you are

1786
01:35:47,320 --> 01:35:49,320
Speaker 37: your team to win with defense in that sense?

1787
01:35:49,760 --> 01:35:52,840
Speaker 38: Yeah, I mean, certainly we've had our moments where offensively,

1788
01:35:52,960 --> 01:35:54,960
Speaker 38: you know, we're playing with pace and it's a flurry,

1789
01:35:55,040 --> 01:35:56,160
Speaker 38: and that's all well and good.

1790
01:35:56,280 --> 01:35:57,960
Speaker 3: But man, it's almost.

1791
01:35:57,680 --> 01:36:00,760
Speaker 38: February and you have to win games like that in

1792
01:36:00,920 --> 01:36:03,519
Speaker 38: this league. Everybody's going to know tendencies, everybody's going to

1793
01:36:03,600 --> 01:36:04,400
Speaker 38: take everything away.

1794
01:36:05,520 --> 01:36:06,920
Speaker 3: You got to be able to get to the free

1795
01:36:06,960 --> 01:36:07,400
Speaker 3: throw line.

1796
01:36:07,439 --> 01:36:09,920
Speaker 38: Last time we played them, we made ten. They made

1797
01:36:09,920 --> 01:36:12,559
Speaker 38: about I think twenty six did a way better job

1798
01:36:13,200 --> 01:36:15,280
Speaker 38: this time of taking the fight to them at the

1799
01:36:15,479 --> 01:36:18,759
Speaker 38: rim and then started. My assistance made a great suggestion

1800
01:36:18,880 --> 01:36:20,400
Speaker 38: to just switching all ball screens.

1801
01:36:20,680 --> 01:36:21,599
Speaker 8: Playing one on one.

1802
01:36:22,720 --> 01:36:24,160
Speaker 38: You know, we had a lot of fouls to give,

1803
01:36:24,240 --> 01:36:27,559
Speaker 38: so we're really really trying to be aggressive. We wanted

1804
01:36:27,600 --> 01:36:30,080
Speaker 38: a foul on the last play they went really really fast,

1805
01:36:30,280 --> 01:36:32,439
Speaker 38: and Gun made a big shot, but then Philip obviously

1806
01:36:32,479 --> 01:36:33,080
Speaker 38: made a huge one.

1807
01:36:33,720 --> 01:36:37,719
Speaker 3: How challenging is it to mount that comeback without any timeouts? Extremely?

1808
01:36:37,920 --> 01:36:39,720
Speaker 38: Yeah, there was a lot of things going for us

1809
01:36:39,760 --> 01:36:43,040
Speaker 38: in that building tonight or this afternoon, and to be

1810
01:36:43,120 --> 01:36:44,760
Speaker 38: able to just block all that out and lock.

1811
01:36:44,760 --> 01:36:45,240
Speaker 3: In was great.

1812
01:36:45,680 --> 01:36:48,599
Speaker 37: Philip mentioned fatigue, and it just looked like DePaul set

1813
01:36:48,680 --> 01:36:51,120
Speaker 37: the tone right away and kind of zapped any energy

1814
01:36:51,200 --> 01:36:51,639
Speaker 37: that you had.

1815
01:36:51,720 --> 01:36:53,280
Speaker 3: Did you feel like there was a lack of energy

1816
01:36:53,320 --> 01:36:54,720
Speaker 3: and where do you think that came from?

1817
01:36:54,760 --> 01:36:55,040
Speaker 11: Early?

1818
01:36:55,920 --> 01:36:56,439
Speaker 3: No idea?

1819
01:36:56,520 --> 01:36:57,320
Speaker 8: What the hell do I know?

1820
01:36:57,439 --> 01:36:57,760
Speaker 3: I don't know.

1821
01:36:57,880 --> 01:36:59,680
Speaker 38: I mean, you know, I think I think we were

1822
01:36:59,680 --> 01:37:01,519
Speaker 38: allowed allowing them to kind of do what they want,

1823
01:37:02,120 --> 01:37:05,280
Speaker 38: and then we started pressing. We started being more aggressive

1824
01:37:05,360 --> 01:37:09,439
Speaker 38: on the ball. You know, we don't have jet quick guys,

1825
01:37:09,520 --> 01:37:11,519
Speaker 38: so I think they're scared to get beat. We just

1826
01:37:11,600 --> 01:37:13,320
Speaker 38: said screw it, don't be scared to get beat and

1827
01:37:13,439 --> 01:37:14,439
Speaker 38: get up and pressure the ball.

1828
01:37:15,439 --> 01:37:15,759
Speaker 3: Richard.

1829
01:37:15,840 --> 01:37:17,920
Speaker 39: It also seem like you guys did a much better

1830
01:37:18,040 --> 01:37:20,479
Speaker 39: job in the second half at the basket defending the rim.

1831
01:37:20,760 --> 01:37:24,080
Speaker 39: I think they missed four or five basket or attempts

1832
01:37:24,120 --> 01:37:27,000
Speaker 39: close to the basket. How important was that and your

1833
01:37:27,200 --> 01:37:28,120
Speaker 39: inside defense.

1834
01:37:28,640 --> 01:37:33,960
Speaker 38: It's huge offensively for us to make layups. You know,

1835
01:37:34,080 --> 01:37:36,360
Speaker 38: I know it's obvious, but we got to get to

1836
01:37:36,479 --> 01:37:38,639
Speaker 38: the rim. We have to get to the free throw line.

1837
01:37:39,000 --> 01:37:42,080
Speaker 38: Yes we can hit some threes. Yes we're very, very unselfish,

1838
01:37:42,600 --> 01:37:45,559
Speaker 38: but when you're in a five out situation, like you've

1839
01:37:45,600 --> 01:37:47,479
Speaker 38: got to be able to go in there and attack

1840
01:37:47,520 --> 01:37:49,400
Speaker 38: at the rim. Some we work on every single day.

1841
01:37:49,880 --> 01:37:52,000
Speaker 38: And then we did a really good job of disrupting

1842
01:37:52,080 --> 01:37:54,640
Speaker 38: them at the room. They missed some close ones and

1843
01:37:54,760 --> 01:37:58,519
Speaker 38: we made some, all right, So that is some Richard

1844
01:37:58,560 --> 01:37:59,479
Speaker 38: Patino after the win.

1845
01:37:59,600 --> 01:38:01,960
Speaker 3: You know what interesting and stood out to me in

1846
01:38:02,240 --> 01:38:05,400
Speaker 3: that post game that I have not heard from Wes

1847
01:38:05,520 --> 01:38:09,160
Speaker 3: Miller since he's been a Cincinnati Bearcat. Assistant coaches correct,

1848
01:38:10,280 --> 01:38:15,160
Speaker 3: the assistant coaches made a great suggestion, and that's what

1849
01:38:15,280 --> 01:38:18,240
Speaker 3: we did. I've yet in five years to hear Wes

1850
01:38:18,320 --> 01:38:19,160
Speaker 3: Miller say anything like that.

1851
01:38:19,240 --> 01:38:21,120
Speaker 4: I feel like I don't hear that a ton to

1852
01:38:21,200 --> 01:38:24,080
Speaker 4: begin with with a lot of coaches, but I definitely

1853
01:38:24,120 --> 01:38:25,120
Speaker 4: haven't heard that from Wes.

1854
01:38:25,360 --> 01:38:25,400
Speaker 11: No.

1855
01:38:26,439 --> 01:38:28,760
Speaker 3: And again that's that's not always easy as a coach

1856
01:38:28,800 --> 01:38:30,960
Speaker 3: to be like, you know what, my assistants helped out

1857
01:38:31,000 --> 01:38:33,400
Speaker 3: a lot. I was at a timeouts. We had to

1858
01:38:33,400 --> 01:38:35,640
Speaker 3: burn them all because the way we were playing. They

1859
01:38:35,760 --> 01:38:40,120
Speaker 3: made a great, a great push to switch ball screens.

1860
01:38:40,120 --> 01:38:42,599
Speaker 3: I listened and kind of the rest is history. Yeah,

1861
01:38:42,640 --> 01:38:44,599
Speaker 3: I mean, that's why they're there. That's why they're there

1862
01:38:45,280 --> 01:38:48,160
Speaker 3: to provide you with something. And again, I don't know

1863
01:38:48,200 --> 01:38:50,920
Speaker 3: the ins and outs of what happens with uc on

1864
01:38:51,120 --> 01:38:56,920
Speaker 3: on that front, but that's what it was that they

1865
01:38:57,120 --> 01:39:01,759
Speaker 3: had and they had the adjustments made, and he highlighted

1866
01:39:01,760 --> 01:39:03,840
Speaker 3: the fat you're down eighteen points, some's got to change.

1867
01:39:04,400 --> 01:39:06,240
Speaker 3: Took what his assistant coach had to say, and they

1868
01:39:06,320 --> 01:39:09,280
Speaker 3: come back and beat the Paul on Saturday. By the way,

1869
01:39:10,080 --> 01:39:11,960
Speaker 3: you want to talk about a tough seven days coming

1870
01:39:12,040 --> 01:39:16,320
Speaker 3: up for the Muskies Austin. Tomorrow they are on the

1871
01:39:16,439 --> 01:39:19,160
Speaker 3: road against the second ranked team in the country, the

1872
01:39:19,240 --> 01:39:22,719
Speaker 3: Yukon Huskies. Oh, they come back a week from today

1873
01:39:23,439 --> 01:39:25,839
Speaker 3: on the road at Saint John's.

1874
01:39:27,200 --> 01:39:29,880
Speaker 4: So it's kind of like the opposite of the Bearcats,

1875
01:39:29,920 --> 01:39:32,639
Speaker 4: where they feel like their schedules kind of front loaded

1876
01:39:32,680 --> 01:39:36,960
Speaker 4: with all those good games early yep, and it evens

1877
01:39:36,960 --> 01:39:38,519
Speaker 4: out a little bit later on for them.

1878
01:39:38,600 --> 01:39:43,839
Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, locally the other. And again, if you're wondering,

1879
01:39:44,800 --> 01:39:47,200
Speaker 3: why why don't we talk baricat winners go first.

1880
01:39:47,400 --> 01:39:49,400
Speaker 4: I think some people would say, we don't have to

1881
01:39:49,439 --> 01:39:51,960
Speaker 4: talk about the Bearcats at all. Winners, Some probably don't,

1882
01:39:52,000 --> 01:39:53,000
Speaker 4: some probably don't want to.

1883
01:39:53,320 --> 01:39:58,040
Speaker 3: Winners go first. Not only did Miami win on Saturday,

1884
01:39:58,120 --> 01:39:59,960
Speaker 3: John John one as well. He had a half court shot.

1885
01:40:00,600 --> 01:40:03,960
Speaker 3: Did you see that video? I did, John John He

1886
01:40:04,120 --> 01:40:07,719
Speaker 3: was wearing that damn elf suit. Yeah, Mllet Hall again,

1887
01:40:08,040 --> 01:40:09,920
Speaker 3: I heard that he showed up in the elf suit

1888
01:40:09,960 --> 01:40:12,720
Speaker 3: and they said, dude, it's February. Makes sense, you're good

1889
01:40:13,240 --> 01:40:17,360
Speaker 3: ten thousand, six hundred and forty. It's awesome. Show up

1890
01:40:17,400 --> 01:40:21,719
Speaker 3: at Mallet Hall to again watch Miami move to twenty

1891
01:40:21,800 --> 01:40:25,040
Speaker 3: two and oh Miami and the second half at one

1892
01:40:25,120 --> 01:40:28,479
Speaker 3: point was down by five points. They put it together,

1893
01:40:29,160 --> 01:40:33,840
Speaker 3: They put together an intense, intense rally and they come

1894
01:40:33,920 --> 01:40:39,439
Speaker 3: out winners on top of Northern Illinois on Saturday. So

1895
01:40:40,120 --> 01:40:44,120
Speaker 3: Miami in Arizona remained the lone unbeatens in D one.

1896
01:40:44,160 --> 01:40:47,000
Speaker 3: You want to talk about, Mllet Hall lostin twenty eight

1897
01:40:47,080 --> 01:40:50,480
Speaker 3: straight wins at Mallet Hall. That's awesome for the RedHawks.

1898
01:40:51,560 --> 01:40:54,759
Speaker 3: Brent Byers twenty one points led the way for Miami.

1899
01:40:55,680 --> 01:40:59,479
Speaker 3: Peter Sooter at in nineteen Antoine Woolfork had fourteen and twelve,

1900
01:41:00,200 --> 01:41:07,120
Speaker 3: and again Miami just defensively was able to get it done.

1901
01:41:07,200 --> 01:41:15,120
Speaker 3: They forced seventeen turnovers. It's everything impressive about what Miami's

1902
01:41:15,120 --> 01:41:18,120
Speaker 3: done in this stretch because they've been tested in so

1903
01:41:18,320 --> 01:41:21,320
Speaker 3: many ways. They took an eighteen to three run in

1904
01:41:21,360 --> 01:41:24,320
Speaker 3: the second half to pull away from Northern Illinois. You

1905
01:41:24,400 --> 01:41:26,200
Speaker 3: know what, Austin, do we have any Travis Steele?

1906
01:41:26,400 --> 01:41:26,600
Speaker 29: We do?

1907
01:41:26,920 --> 01:41:31,120
Speaker 3: Can we get Travis Steele again? Winners go first on Mondays.

1908
01:41:31,560 --> 01:41:32,880
Speaker 3: Here's Travis Steele after the win.

1909
01:41:33,840 --> 01:41:36,080
Speaker 6: You know, I think our guys at halftime got the

1910
01:41:36,160 --> 01:41:40,280
Speaker 6: message pretty clear. We gotta start playing defense. Listen, it's

1911
01:41:40,320 --> 01:41:43,160
Speaker 6: been about three and a half games. Well, we've been winning,

1912
01:41:43,240 --> 01:41:45,160
Speaker 6: but like you know, it's been almost like a tennis match.

1913
01:41:45,160 --> 01:41:47,000
Speaker 6: It's like a rally. It's like we score, they score,

1914
01:41:47,080 --> 01:41:48,760
Speaker 6: we scored, they score, And we didn't shoot the ball

1915
01:41:48,800 --> 01:41:51,400
Speaker 6: well obviously tonight, and we got to let the offensive

1916
01:41:51,400 --> 01:41:53,760
Speaker 6: breathe a little bit earlier, a little bit a hair more.

1917
01:41:55,000 --> 01:41:56,560
Speaker 6: But again we'll take a lot of the shots that

1918
01:41:56,640 --> 01:41:59,320
Speaker 6: we got. We still scored eighty five points, were seven

1919
01:41:59,360 --> 01:42:01,160
Speaker 6: to twenty eight from three and still score eighty five.

1920
01:42:01,200 --> 01:42:04,160
Speaker 6: That's pretty good. But again, we're not gonna shoot like

1921
01:42:04,160 --> 01:42:05,960
Speaker 6: that many nights. I thought, I love the looks that

1922
01:42:06,040 --> 01:42:08,960
Speaker 6: we had overall, but our defense in the second half

1923
01:42:09,880 --> 01:42:12,519
Speaker 6: was so much better, and I thought it led with Antoine.

1924
01:42:12,520 --> 01:42:17,280
Speaker 6: I thought Antoine's activity in passing lanes, his ball screen

1925
01:42:17,360 --> 01:42:19,240
Speaker 6: defense was more aggressive.

1926
01:42:20,240 --> 01:42:23,320
Speaker 28: We played with more hands, we made them missed and

1927
01:42:23,439 --> 01:42:24,439
Speaker 28: hoped that they would miss.

1928
01:42:25,120 --> 01:42:27,160
Speaker 6: We were just more active, and I thought that forced

1929
01:42:27,160 --> 01:42:30,479
Speaker 6: some turnovers, sped them up, which then allowed us to

1930
01:42:30,520 --> 01:42:32,680
Speaker 6: be able to get out on offense and transition and

1931
01:42:32,760 --> 01:42:34,360
Speaker 6: push the ball, which is way we want to play.

1932
01:42:34,479 --> 01:42:37,880
Speaker 6: So that picture that we had in the second half

1933
01:42:37,920 --> 01:42:40,720
Speaker 6: of our defense need to see moving forward. I think

1934
01:42:40,760 --> 01:42:42,040
Speaker 6: if we want to be able to continue to get

1935
01:42:42,040 --> 01:42:43,840
Speaker 6: the results that we want and to become a team

1936
01:42:43,880 --> 01:42:44,720
Speaker 6: multimately want to become.

1937
01:42:45,439 --> 01:42:48,799
Speaker 3: That is what Travis Steele had to say after another

1938
01:42:48,960 --> 01:42:52,240
Speaker 3: win by the Miami RedHawks. They moved to twenty two

1939
01:42:52,280 --> 01:42:56,200
Speaker 3: and zero. I would imagine they're gonna get They're gonna

1940
01:42:56,240 --> 01:42:58,040
Speaker 3: move up in the standings. I would imagine they move

1941
01:42:58,120 --> 01:42:58,679
Speaker 3: up in the AP.

1942
01:42:58,680 --> 01:43:01,920
Speaker 4: This we believe they already. Okay, if give me just

1943
01:43:02,000 --> 01:43:05,280
Speaker 4: a second to confirm that I believe twenty three. We

1944
01:43:05,360 --> 01:43:08,640
Speaker 4: have one spot number twenty three. Now if you are

1945
01:43:08,760 --> 01:43:13,479
Speaker 4: watching now the chase for perfection. The next game for

1946
01:43:13,640 --> 01:43:16,720
Speaker 4: Miami is as a road game at Buffalo. Now, if

1947
01:43:16,720 --> 01:43:19,880
Speaker 4: you remember Austin Buffalo was one of those early games

1948
01:43:19,960 --> 01:43:23,880
Speaker 4: that were a little bit dicey at Mallet Hall. They

1949
01:43:23,920 --> 01:43:26,160
Speaker 4: needed a late three to force overtime and then the

1950
01:43:26,200 --> 01:43:28,639
Speaker 4: game winner in overtime to beat Buffalo one oh five

1951
01:43:28,680 --> 01:43:29,240
Speaker 4: to one oh two.

1952
01:43:30,080 --> 01:43:32,920
Speaker 3: So tough road trip, you know. Now you get the

1953
01:43:32,960 --> 01:43:36,080
Speaker 3: target on your back, you're gonna be getting everyone's best shot.

1954
01:43:36,439 --> 01:43:39,320
Speaker 3: They then play out of MAC Action, which I think

1955
01:43:39,439 --> 01:43:41,800
Speaker 3: is kind of weird this late in the season. They

1956
01:43:41,920 --> 01:43:46,679
Speaker 3: play in the Mac SBC Challenge on February seventh, Sun Belt.

1957
01:43:46,880 --> 01:43:50,639
Speaker 3: They'll travel to Marshall to take on the Thundering Herd,

1958
01:43:50,640 --> 01:43:53,040
Speaker 3: who is ten and two at home right now, fourteen

1959
01:43:53,040 --> 01:43:55,519
Speaker 3: to eight on the season. That's fun. Yeah, other games

1960
01:43:55,560 --> 01:43:57,720
Speaker 3: they have coming up. We saw that UMass game at

1961
01:43:57,760 --> 01:43:59,600
Speaker 3: Mllet Hall was a close one. They travel to U

1962
01:43:59,640 --> 01:44:03,639
Speaker 3: mass Ill. They'll take on Bowling Green, who they beat

1963
01:44:03,800 --> 01:44:06,759
Speaker 3: ninety three eighty three earlier in the year Eastern Michigan.

1964
01:44:08,320 --> 01:44:10,160
Speaker 3: I have no bad things to say Aboutastern Michigan with

1965
01:44:10,240 --> 01:44:12,960
Speaker 3: what they did to the Bearcats. Uh checking the notes

1966
01:44:13,000 --> 01:44:18,519
Speaker 3: after Easter. After Eastern Michigans win against the Bearcatch you

1967
01:44:18,600 --> 01:44:20,360
Speaker 3: think that propelled them into the season. They're three and

1968
01:44:20,479 --> 01:44:23,920
Speaker 3: seven in the MAC, nine and thirteen overall. Western Michigan

1969
01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:26,880
Speaker 3: on the road. Who is worse than Eastern Michigan speak?

1970
01:44:27,120 --> 01:44:31,120
Speaker 3: And then they have Toledo on the schedule, who is

1971
01:44:31,320 --> 01:44:33,800
Speaker 3: right now six and four in the MAC and they

1972
01:44:33,880 --> 01:44:37,720
Speaker 3: see Oe you twice down the stretch. Yeah, Battle of

1973
01:44:37,760 --> 01:44:40,720
Speaker 3: the Bricks? So again, did I see what about that?

1974
01:44:40,880 --> 01:44:43,479
Speaker 3: At Ohio is the last game in the regular season,

1975
01:44:43,520 --> 01:44:46,000
Speaker 3: they could be undefeated, tough place to play and have

1976
01:44:46,120 --> 01:44:46,920
Speaker 3: to go win that one.

1977
01:44:47,000 --> 01:44:49,240
Speaker 4: I can promise you that joint would be Joe oh boy,

1978
01:44:49,439 --> 01:44:52,880
Speaker 4: if you've ever been to that place. Speaking of which

1979
01:44:53,000 --> 01:44:56,600
Speaker 4: is this is just sidebar Tennessee. Did you did I

1980
01:44:56,720 --> 01:44:58,920
Speaker 4: see their coach over the weekend? Who is at Rick

1981
01:44:59,000 --> 01:45:01,960
Speaker 4: Barr Barnes. Did he say that sometimes he thinks his

1982
01:45:02,080 --> 01:45:03,160
Speaker 4: team is shaving points?

1983
01:45:03,320 --> 01:45:05,280
Speaker 3: Yeah? Or did I get got by like an a?

1984
01:45:05,520 --> 01:45:07,720
Speaker 3: Oh that was real? That was real? He said that. Yes,

1985
01:45:08,479 --> 01:45:11,240
Speaker 3: that's a crazy thing to say, just a very confused

1986
01:45:11,320 --> 01:45:15,640
Speaker 3: and frustrated Rick Barnes and like I I'm with you.

1987
01:45:15,720 --> 01:45:17,639
Speaker 4: I'm like, they, by the way, snuck into the top

1988
01:45:17,680 --> 01:45:19,680
Speaker 4: twenty five. Now they're the last team in.

1989
01:45:19,840 --> 01:45:21,880
Speaker 3: I'm thinking to Mike because you you said it. I

1990
01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:24,680
Speaker 3: was like, no way, Like, he's not, He's not going

1991
01:45:24,760 --> 01:45:26,759
Speaker 3: to say that. It was after their win against Auburn.

1992
01:45:27,880 --> 01:45:31,320
Speaker 3: He really said that. That's insane. Barnes.

1993
01:45:31,439 --> 01:45:34,599
Speaker 4: By the way Dayton played over the weekend, they got

1994
01:45:34,640 --> 01:45:37,400
Speaker 4: their face bashed in by Saint Louis Lewis. I know

1995
01:45:37,560 --> 01:45:39,840
Speaker 4: Saint Louis, and that coach is a name that some

1996
01:45:39,960 --> 01:45:44,080
Speaker 4: Bearcat fans have connected with. You see, they are tied

1997
01:45:44,640 --> 01:45:50,080
Speaker 4: with Georgia, Miami, the RedHawks, and Michigan for the most

1998
01:45:50,400 --> 01:45:53,040
Speaker 4: one hundred point games in Division one.

1999
01:45:53,240 --> 01:45:53,519
Speaker 3: Wow.

2000
01:45:53,720 --> 01:45:56,880
Speaker 4: They each of those teams has seven one hundred point

2001
01:45:58,360 --> 01:46:02,200
Speaker 4: games this season. That number seven is the most ever

2002
01:46:02,720 --> 01:46:06,240
Speaker 4: in a season in Atlantic ten history, breaking a tie

2003
01:46:06,320 --> 01:46:10,080
Speaker 4: with Rhode Island back in the late eighties. So pretty amazing.

2004
01:46:10,200 --> 01:46:13,080
Speaker 4: The run that the Saint Louis Billickin's are on offensively

2005
01:46:13,160 --> 01:46:14,800
Speaker 4: as well, right up there with Miami one.

2006
01:46:14,840 --> 01:46:16,280
Speaker 3: I think they had a one or two point loss

2007
01:46:16,320 --> 01:46:18,280
Speaker 3: early in the year of Stanford. That's the only blemish

2008
01:46:18,320 --> 01:46:19,200
Speaker 3: on the record so far.

2009
01:46:19,520 --> 01:46:22,000
Speaker 4: How many one hundred point games do the Bearcats have

2010
01:46:22,680 --> 01:46:23,880
Speaker 4: in the West Miller era?

2011
01:46:24,720 --> 01:46:29,160
Speaker 3: That's a great question. I couldn't tell you. I could

2012
01:46:29,240 --> 01:46:30,680
Speaker 3: not take Do they have it? Have they scored one

2013
01:46:30,760 --> 01:46:31,439
Speaker 3: hundred this year?

2014
01:46:31,680 --> 01:46:31,720
Speaker 6: No?

2015
01:46:31,960 --> 01:46:33,479
Speaker 3: I was gonnay. I don't think they have. They have

2016
01:46:33,600 --> 01:46:36,000
Speaker 3: not scored one hundred this year, not even against the

2017
01:46:36,040 --> 01:46:39,559
Speaker 3: New Jersey Institute of Technology, not even against Tarleton State,

2018
01:46:40,760 --> 01:46:47,040
Speaker 3: not even against Western Carolina. Anyway, That's just that's unbelievable.

2019
01:46:47,840 --> 01:46:51,240
Speaker 3: I'm gonna see if I could find uh. I also

2020
01:46:51,320 --> 01:46:55,719
Speaker 3: do think there's sumped into both Patino and Travis Deel.

2021
01:46:56,080 --> 01:46:58,160
Speaker 3: I mean, Xavier's won with offense much of the year.

2022
01:46:58,520 --> 01:47:00,439
Speaker 3: They win a game holding an opponent to sixty six

2023
01:47:00,760 --> 01:47:04,120
Speaker 3: when they only score sixty eight. That's impressive, Miami, And

2024
01:47:04,160 --> 01:47:05,880
Speaker 3: you heard Travis Steele talking about getting in the locker

2025
01:47:05,960 --> 01:47:08,840
Speaker 3: room and playing some defense. They come out in the

2026
01:47:08,960 --> 01:47:11,920
Speaker 3: second half against Northern Illinois and hold them to just

2027
01:47:12,000 --> 01:47:14,519
Speaker 3: twenty three in the second half. So you start turning

2028
01:47:14,560 --> 01:47:17,960
Speaker 3: to the calendar here now into February. Defense is a

2029
01:47:18,040 --> 01:47:21,280
Speaker 3: big part of advancing into March, and obviously that is

2030
01:47:21,320 --> 01:47:22,880
Speaker 3: something that Travis Steel has taken note of.

2031
01:47:23,120 --> 01:47:27,639
Speaker 4: Season opener last year against Arkansas Pine Bluff.

2032
01:47:27,720 --> 01:47:29,320
Speaker 3: That was a good Arkansas Pine Bluff team.

2033
01:47:29,400 --> 01:47:35,200
Speaker 4: Monday, November fourth, twenty twenty four. Yeah right, that was

2034
01:47:35,240 --> 01:47:40,320
Speaker 4: a good team in Arkansas Pine Bluff. Was the last time,

2035
01:47:41,000 --> 01:47:44,720
Speaker 4: based off what I'm seeing here, that Cincinnati scored over

2036
01:47:44,760 --> 01:47:45,519
Speaker 4: one hundred points.

2037
01:47:45,680 --> 01:47:49,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't even think. I don't even think that

2038
01:47:49,479 --> 01:47:52,080
Speaker 3: should be the threshold. They haven't scored eighty in Big

2039
01:47:52,120 --> 01:47:55,759
Speaker 3: twelve play. I'm looking at the sea totals for Colorado

2040
01:47:55,760 --> 01:47:56,800
Speaker 3: and Iams State. They're two wins.

2041
01:47:58,320 --> 01:48:01,960
Speaker 4: They scored ninety nine against Florida Gulf Coast in December

2042
01:48:02,040 --> 01:48:08,559
Speaker 4: of twenty three. But yeah, I don't see that's fun.

2043
01:48:09,960 --> 01:48:11,960
Speaker 3: Well, let's have some more fun as we go into

2044
01:48:11,960 --> 01:48:15,800
Speaker 3: a break. Let's do this when we come back, we'll

2045
01:48:15,840 --> 01:48:17,640
Speaker 3: have some fun. Listening to what Wes Miller had to say,

2046
01:48:17,840 --> 01:48:19,479
Speaker 3: I got her latest loss.

2047
01:48:19,560 --> 01:48:22,679
Speaker 4: They scored one hundred on Miami back in twenty twenty two. Yeah,

2048
01:48:23,200 --> 01:48:26,360
Speaker 4: take that one O three seventy six. David did Julius

2049
01:48:26,400 --> 01:48:29,160
Speaker 4: the high scorer in that game. Oh yeah, I liked David.

2050
01:48:29,160 --> 01:48:30,760
Speaker 4: Did you Julius was a player man.

2051
01:48:30,880 --> 01:48:36,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, hoop, all right? The uh the direct quote Rick

2052
01:48:36,240 --> 01:48:40,600
Speaker 3: Barnes after his win, he was very upset about the

2053
01:48:41,120 --> 01:48:45,760
Speaker 3: bad passes and turnovers. His direct quote, Sometimes I wonder

2054
01:48:45,800 --> 01:48:51,559
Speaker 3: if my guys are betting on games, just in today's world.

2055
01:48:51,680 --> 01:48:55,000
Speaker 3: That is crazy, Just an insane thing to say to

2056
01:48:55,160 --> 01:48:57,439
Speaker 3: lead off a press conference. I mean it's funny. Could

2057
01:48:57,439 --> 01:49:00,600
Speaker 3: you imagine? Believable?

2058
01:49:04,439 --> 01:49:07,519
Speaker 4: Uh, sometimes we need laughter and we'll miss away. Wait

2059
01:49:07,680 --> 01:49:09,760
Speaker 4: next spring, will it would be some gambling thing?

2060
01:49:09,840 --> 01:49:13,439
Speaker 3: Come out tennis? Sure enough they were Tennessee we will.

2061
01:49:13,760 --> 01:49:15,880
Speaker 3: We'll dive into the weekend that was for the Bearcats

2062
01:49:15,920 --> 01:49:18,759
Speaker 3: and now what's ahead next? In our number three ESPN

2063
01:49:18,800 --> 01:49:20,480
Speaker 3: fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports.

2064
01:49:20,240 --> 01:49:22,920
Speaker 8: Station, Now here's your chim.

2065
01:49:30,560 --> 01:49:37,280
Speaker 3: Welcome back since e three sixty ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati

2066
01:49:37,320 --> 01:49:42,320
Speaker 3: Sports Station. Here on a Monday afternoon, Thanks for joining us,

2067
01:49:42,360 --> 01:49:46,559
Speaker 3: Thanks for hanging around. Talk some college troops with Xavier

2068
01:49:46,640 --> 01:49:49,120
Speaker 3: and Miami. In the first segment of our three, we'll

2069
01:49:49,200 --> 01:49:51,600
Speaker 3: switch gears here and spend a few moments on the

2070
01:49:51,640 --> 01:49:56,160
Speaker 3: Cincinnati Bearcats, who saw their Big twelve record fall to

2071
01:49:56,240 --> 01:49:58,960
Speaker 3: three and six on the year. Their overall record now

2072
01:49:59,680 --> 01:50:02,519
Speaker 3: as we sit here on February second, eleven and eleven

2073
01:50:03,240 --> 01:50:07,320
Speaker 3: on the season for the Cincinnati Bearcats. They dropped their

2074
01:50:07,400 --> 01:50:12,639
Speaker 3: fourteenth straight game to Houston on Saturday. Wes Miller over

2075
01:50:13,240 --> 01:50:15,760
Speaker 3: in his career now as the Cincinnati basketball head coach

2076
01:50:15,880 --> 01:50:19,960
Speaker 3: against Kelvin Samson and the Houston Cougars. Do you want

2077
01:50:20,000 --> 01:50:22,360
Speaker 3: to know, Austin, how you don't go on the road

2078
01:50:22,400 --> 01:50:25,920
Speaker 3: and beat a top ten team? How guess you turn

2079
01:50:25,960 --> 01:50:31,160
Speaker 3: the ball over nineteen times and only force four minus

2080
01:50:31,240 --> 01:50:34,519
Speaker 3: fifteen in the turnover battle against the tenth ranked team

2081
01:50:34,520 --> 01:50:40,479
Speaker 3: in the country. Outscored twenty six to two in those

2082
01:50:40,560 --> 01:50:45,920
Speaker 3: points off turnovers, outscored twenty six to eight in the paint.

2083
01:50:48,160 --> 01:50:52,599
Speaker 3: At one point, Houston led the game by thirty. They

2084
01:50:52,640 --> 01:50:56,560
Speaker 3: went it going away seventy six to fifty four. And

2085
01:50:56,680 --> 01:51:00,280
Speaker 3: even more problems for the Cincinnati Bearcats. Mustafa Chom did

2086
01:51:00,360 --> 01:51:02,479
Speaker 3: the game in the first half with what looked to

2087
01:51:02,479 --> 01:51:04,640
Speaker 3: be an ankle injury. He was on the bench in

2088
01:51:04,720 --> 01:51:10,200
Speaker 3: the second half in a walking boot. Since Here Harris

2089
01:51:10,240 --> 01:51:12,519
Speaker 3: missed his second straight game due to an illness. Shawna

2090
01:51:12,600 --> 01:51:16,160
Speaker 3: Bive is on crutches and has a walking boot on.

2091
01:51:16,960 --> 01:51:23,080
Speaker 3: So the Bearcats are extremely shorthanded. The Bearcats just quite frankly,

2092
01:51:23,160 --> 01:51:25,000
Speaker 3: don't have a lot of talent going for them right now.

2093
01:51:25,720 --> 01:51:29,840
Speaker 3: They saw double figure games from the freshman Keishan Tillery,

2094
01:51:29,840 --> 01:51:33,639
Speaker 3: who I thought played good minutes, had fourteen points four

2095
01:51:33,680 --> 01:51:40,680
Speaker 3: turnovers unfortunately on Saturday, and Jalen Celestine fifteen points on

2096
01:51:41,000 --> 01:51:45,240
Speaker 3: five of seven shooting from the field. Here's an issue

2097
01:51:45,280 --> 01:51:51,120
Speaker 3: for the Bearcats. They're point guards. On Saturday dayde Thomas,

2098
01:51:51,400 --> 01:51:57,040
Speaker 3: Gisel James, and Keishan Tillery combined for thirteen turnovers. Your

2099
01:51:57,120 --> 01:52:00,200
Speaker 3: point guards can't turn the ball over and you back

2100
01:52:00,240 --> 01:52:03,719
Speaker 3: to consistently win, It's just not gonna happen. Boba Miller

2101
01:52:03,760 --> 01:52:08,760
Speaker 3: has been fantastic for this team. Houston did what they

2102
01:52:09,120 --> 01:52:11,560
Speaker 3: do to so many They take your best option and

2103
01:52:11,640 --> 01:52:13,479
Speaker 3: they say that player is not going to beat us,

2104
01:52:14,439 --> 01:52:16,519
Speaker 3: and they took Boba Miller and they made sure he

2105
01:52:16,600 --> 01:52:19,120
Speaker 3: didn't beat them. He had two points and eight rebounds

2106
01:52:19,720 --> 01:52:24,559
Speaker 3: on the day. In Mustapha Cham's absence, Tyler McKinley played

2107
01:52:24,600 --> 01:52:28,600
Speaker 3: some more minutes. Halvin Zelitz played fourteen minutes. Neither of

2108
01:52:28,680 --> 01:52:32,439
Speaker 3: those could do much of anything for the Bearcats. Also

2109
01:52:33,840 --> 01:52:39,439
Speaker 3: very confusing to me, Dayda Thomas to me is one

2110
01:52:39,479 --> 01:52:41,320
Speaker 3: of the guys that I believe was going to be

2111
01:52:41,400 --> 01:52:44,120
Speaker 3: looked at as a leader on this team coming back.

2112
01:52:44,640 --> 01:52:47,840
Speaker 3: Got the extra year of eligibility, comes back to the Bearcats.

2113
01:52:48,040 --> 01:52:50,920
Speaker 3: Since the win over Iowa State where Dayde Thomas had

2114
01:52:51,000 --> 01:52:55,639
Speaker 3: nineteen points, here's what his stat line has looked like since.

2115
01:52:56,960 --> 01:53:01,720
Speaker 3: Two points and three turnovers against Arizona State twenty nine

2116
01:53:01,760 --> 01:53:05,840
Speaker 3: minutes of play against I'm sorry, that's against Arizona against

2117
01:53:05,880 --> 01:53:10,639
Speaker 3: Arizona State thirty minutes of gameplay, one turnover, zero points.

2118
01:53:11,240 --> 01:53:13,679
Speaker 3: In the win against Baylor, he did have eight points,

2119
01:53:14,400 --> 01:53:19,360
Speaker 3: and then on Saturday, Dayde Thomas six turnovers, six points,

2120
01:53:21,000 --> 01:53:26,240
Speaker 3: sixteen points combined over his last four games after his

2121
01:53:26,400 --> 01:53:30,960
Speaker 3: nineteen point outburst against Iowa State. So you have struggles

2122
01:53:31,040 --> 01:53:36,120
Speaker 3: from day Da Thomas. Gisel James was no better. He

2123
01:53:36,280 --> 01:53:40,200
Speaker 3: had five points in the game on Saturday and three turnovers.

2124
01:53:40,320 --> 01:53:44,080
Speaker 3: So the guard position has essentially been non existent. Now

2125
01:53:44,120 --> 01:53:47,120
Speaker 3: you take your big man Mustapha Cham out of the equation.

2126
01:53:48,000 --> 01:53:51,080
Speaker 3: I'm not quite sure how this gets pieced together. The

2127
01:53:51,160 --> 01:53:55,800
Speaker 3: rest of the way here is uh, here's what West

2128
01:53:55,800 --> 01:53:57,679
Speaker 3: Miller I believe. This is what Dan Horde and Terry

2129
01:53:57,680 --> 01:53:59,960
Speaker 3: Nelson after the game. This is what West Miners say.

2130
01:54:00,080 --> 01:54:01,759
Speaker 3: Two players down from the rotation.

2131
01:54:02,120 --> 01:54:03,960
Speaker 4: Now you had mos stop a child who played eleven

2132
01:54:03,960 --> 01:54:05,080
Speaker 4: minutes before he went down.

2133
01:54:05,520 --> 01:54:06,960
Speaker 3: What's the status almost?

2134
01:54:07,000 --> 01:54:07,320
Speaker 15: I don't know.

2135
01:54:07,479 --> 01:54:10,040
Speaker 28: I mean, I hadn't had a chance yet. I know,

2136
01:54:10,240 --> 01:54:11,760
Speaker 28: I just all I knew was what he did. He

2137
01:54:11,800 --> 01:54:15,439
Speaker 28: couldn't go back, and so you know.

2138
01:54:15,560 --> 01:54:19,680
Speaker 18: You're down, you know, three starting starters or high Road

2139
01:54:19,760 --> 01:54:21,280
Speaker 18: and Sean you know, started a lot of games for

2140
01:54:21,400 --> 01:54:23,360
Speaker 18: US high rotation players. And Sewan would have been nice

2141
01:54:23,360 --> 01:54:25,439
Speaker 18: for us tonight because he can pass over top and

2142
01:54:25,479 --> 01:54:27,439
Speaker 18: when they bring two to the ball, like in the

2143
01:54:27,479 --> 01:54:29,519
Speaker 18: first game, his minutes were impactful because he got.

2144
01:54:29,400 --> 01:54:31,960
Speaker 28: It over the top of the defense. But uh, you know,

2145
01:54:33,520 --> 01:54:34,640
Speaker 28: we're down some bodies tonight.

2146
01:54:34,720 --> 01:54:35,160
Speaker 3: That's life.

2147
01:54:35,760 --> 01:54:37,480
Speaker 18: Come on, man, as we talked about in locker room,

2148
01:54:37,560 --> 01:54:40,440
Speaker 18: like that's life. Like figured out and other guys step up.

2149
01:54:40,480 --> 01:54:42,920
Speaker 18: And we did that against Baylor, and we we weren't

2150
01:54:42,920 --> 01:54:44,920
Speaker 18: able to do it to the level we needed to tonight.

2151
01:54:45,040 --> 01:54:49,200
Speaker 18: But I are there things that I didn't like about

2152
01:54:49,200 --> 01:54:51,680
Speaker 18: how we played shore are there things There's possessions that

2153
01:54:51,680 --> 01:54:52,400
Speaker 18: I'm pissed about.

2154
01:54:53,080 --> 01:54:53,560
Speaker 12: Uh, But.

2155
01:54:55,560 --> 01:54:57,320
Speaker 3: And I ain't the same excuses at all.

2156
01:54:57,520 --> 01:54:57,800
Speaker 8: I don't.

2157
01:54:58,040 --> 01:55:00,640
Speaker 18: I don't believe in that crap. But we've been in

2158
01:55:01,000 --> 01:55:04,280
Speaker 18: three time zones since six days. We're down a bunch

2159
01:55:04,320 --> 01:55:04,839
Speaker 18: of bodies.

2160
01:55:05,840 --> 01:55:05,960
Speaker 7: Uh.

2161
01:55:07,200 --> 01:55:11,120
Speaker 18: That was a strange deal to go from Arizona Monday

2162
01:55:12,160 --> 01:55:15,720
Speaker 18: Baylor Wednesday night and they'll play a morning game here.

2163
01:55:17,360 --> 01:55:19,680
Speaker 18: And that's not an excuse. But I'm saying all that

2164
01:55:19,800 --> 01:55:22,600
Speaker 18: because our kids are fighting. If you heard them in

2165
01:55:22,640 --> 01:55:25,800
Speaker 18: the last two timeouts, they're like, we got to finish

2166
01:55:25,880 --> 01:55:28,080
Speaker 18: this thing. We can't have any plays, we don't go

2167
01:55:28,120 --> 01:55:29,880
Speaker 18: after the ball we got, come on, we got to

2168
01:55:29,880 --> 01:55:32,800
Speaker 18: play with better effort. Like you people would be really

2169
01:55:32,880 --> 01:55:37,000
Speaker 18: proud that that support our program. To hear how they're

2170
01:55:37,120 --> 01:55:39,360
Speaker 18: handling a nightlight tonight.

2171
01:55:40,120 --> 01:55:41,040
Speaker 28: Not the results.

2172
01:55:41,120 --> 01:55:45,200
Speaker 18: Not okay, I'm not I'm not happy about it, proud

2173
01:55:45,240 --> 01:55:47,360
Speaker 18: about it. But our kids got a lot of fight

2174
01:55:47,440 --> 01:55:49,200
Speaker 18: and a lot of heart. And whether you see that

2175
01:55:49,360 --> 01:55:50,800
Speaker 18: or not when you watch them play, I don't know.

2176
01:55:50,920 --> 01:55:53,880
Speaker 18: But the they're they're given more than people realize, and

2177
01:55:53,920 --> 01:55:55,400
Speaker 18: they're they're a little worn out. This will be a

2178
01:55:55,960 --> 01:55:59,720
Speaker 18: a really needed break to get our get our bodies

2179
01:55:59,760 --> 01:56:01,320
Speaker 18: back this week and hopefully we can find a way

2180
01:56:01,360 --> 01:56:02,080
Speaker 18: to get healthy again.

2181
01:56:02,640 --> 01:56:08,480
Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, so he doesn't believe in that crap. First

2182
01:56:08,520 --> 01:56:12,520
Speaker 3: of all, before we even get into that, am I

2183
01:56:12,680 --> 01:56:17,959
Speaker 3: led to believe that Cincinnati bad, the proud Cincinnati basketball

2184
01:56:18,000 --> 01:56:20,880
Speaker 3: that I grew up on. They're now in the huddle

2185
01:56:20,960 --> 01:56:24,480
Speaker 3: down thirty talking about let's play for pride? Is that

2186
01:56:24,560 --> 01:56:27,520
Speaker 3: what we're at? No, you did say proud like I

2187
01:56:28,200 --> 01:56:29,680
Speaker 3: and what I don't even I don't even believe the

2188
01:56:29,680 --> 01:56:31,000
Speaker 3: way they were playing. I don't believe that was even

2189
01:56:31,040 --> 01:56:34,480
Speaker 3: happening down thirty. Come on, let's let's let's finish this.

2190
01:56:34,600 --> 01:56:39,000
Speaker 3: I don't think they were. And again, what gets me

2191
01:56:40,120 --> 01:56:44,840
Speaker 3: the quote there anytime Austin you hear someone say, quote,

2192
01:56:45,040 --> 01:56:47,400
Speaker 3: this isn't an excuse at all. What do you think

2193
01:56:47,480 --> 01:56:51,520
Speaker 3: is coming an excuse? Correct? I don't believe in that crap.

2194
01:56:52,080 --> 01:56:53,880
Speaker 3: But let me tell you about this excuse I have,

2195
01:56:55,120 --> 01:56:57,400
Speaker 3: even though I don't believe in them. We've been in

2196
01:56:57,560 --> 01:57:01,040
Speaker 3: three time zones in six days. Anybody else travel in

2197
01:57:01,080 --> 01:57:06,560
Speaker 3: college basketball A lot of teams, so that happens. That's

2198
01:57:06,600 --> 01:57:13,200
Speaker 3: just not here. Multiple bodies down Austin February. College basketball

2199
01:57:13,640 --> 01:57:18,120
Speaker 3: guys are banged up. Yeah, long season, long season. It's

2200
01:57:18,160 --> 01:57:22,320
Speaker 3: a strange situation. We've just identified that that's not strange,

2201
01:57:22,320 --> 01:57:25,440
Speaker 3: that actually happens everywhere right the travel. Yeah, those games,

2202
01:57:27,800 --> 01:57:29,920
Speaker 3: people would be really proud to hear how they are

2203
01:57:29,960 --> 01:57:34,720
Speaker 3: handling a night like tonight. In what way? In what

2204
01:57:34,960 --> 01:57:39,120
Speaker 3: way does a seventy six to fifty four drumming at

2205
01:57:39,160 --> 01:57:43,160
Speaker 3: the hands of Houston elicit anything in my thoughts of boy,

2206
01:57:43,160 --> 01:57:52,080
Speaker 3: I'm proud of that team today. Nineteen turnovers and when

2207
01:57:52,120 --> 01:57:54,360
Speaker 3: you turn it over nineteen times, you better be forcing them.

2208
01:57:54,400 --> 01:58:01,080
Speaker 3: They forced four turnover differential alone the turnovers in a

2209
01:58:01,200 --> 01:58:08,360
Speaker 3: game in which the Bearcats lost by twenty two. They

2210
01:58:08,400 --> 01:58:14,280
Speaker 3: were outscored by twenty four off turnovers. They were outscored

2211
01:58:14,280 --> 01:58:18,240
Speaker 3: by eighteen in the paint, So you want to figure

2212
01:58:18,240 --> 01:58:20,400
Speaker 3: out how to get the game back under control. And

2213
01:58:20,480 --> 01:58:23,880
Speaker 3: it wasn't like they got bullied. This is the first

2214
01:58:23,920 --> 01:58:26,640
Speaker 3: game in a long time that I actually think Austin

2215
01:58:27,360 --> 01:58:32,640
Speaker 3: that Cincinnati out rebounded Houston thirty five twenty nine. I'll

2216
01:58:32,680 --> 01:58:38,400
Speaker 3: read about him on the offensive glass as well turnovers,

2217
01:58:40,400 --> 01:58:43,840
Speaker 3: But I'm I'm supposed to be proud of the team

2218
01:58:45,440 --> 01:58:49,800
Speaker 3: that didn't roll over when they were down thirty. That's

2219
01:58:49,840 --> 01:58:53,640
Speaker 3: where we're at. I can't wrap my head around that

2220
01:58:56,200 --> 01:58:59,560
Speaker 3: and again to say it's not an excuse because I

2221
01:58:59,600 --> 01:59:02,400
Speaker 3: don't belie even that crap, and then feel the need

2222
01:59:02,520 --> 01:59:04,960
Speaker 3: to go deliver an excuse like you're the only team

2223
01:59:05,440 --> 01:59:09,040
Speaker 3: that has to travel across time zones. Is anyone feeling

2224
01:59:09,080 --> 01:59:10,960
Speaker 3: bad for them Austin because they spent six days in

2225
01:59:11,000 --> 01:59:14,080
Speaker 3: Arizona last week? No, especially now when they're getting paid.

2226
01:59:15,400 --> 01:59:17,440
Speaker 3: What are we doing. They played twice in Arizona and

2227
01:59:17,440 --> 01:59:20,920
Speaker 3: they were there six days, came back, Coleman got to

2228
01:59:20,920 --> 01:59:25,120
Speaker 3: win against Baylor, and then went to Houston. That's not

2229
01:59:25,240 --> 01:59:29,360
Speaker 3: an abnormal schedule in college basketball. Now, if they would

2230
01:59:29,400 --> 01:59:34,560
Speaker 3: have done like Houston Wednesday Baylor Saturday or Arizona Wednesday

2231
01:59:34,840 --> 01:59:37,480
Speaker 3: Baylor Saturday Arizona State, then I'd say, okay, that's a

2232
01:59:37,520 --> 01:59:39,760
Speaker 3: little weird. You'd go to Arizona, back home and then

2233
01:59:39,800 --> 01:59:42,960
Speaker 3: to Arizona. They didn't. They played back to back games,

2234
01:59:42,960 --> 01:59:45,560
Speaker 3: they were in Arizona for six days, they came back,

2235
01:59:45,600 --> 01:59:47,720
Speaker 3: Coleman got to win, and then they went to Houston.

2236
01:59:48,440 --> 01:59:52,600
Speaker 3: That's not the most tough schedule in the world. Everyone's

2237
01:59:52,640 --> 01:59:56,600
Speaker 3: banged up, everyone has scheduling issues. But to say it's

2238
01:59:56,640 --> 01:59:58,640
Speaker 3: not an excuse and then use it as one that's weak.

2239
02:00:01,160 --> 02:00:01,920
Speaker 12: So no, I'm not.

2240
02:00:02,840 --> 02:00:05,160
Speaker 3: I'm not proud to hear how they handled a loss

2241
02:00:05,240 --> 02:00:10,880
Speaker 3: so well, it's not supposed to be where where the

2242
02:00:11,240 --> 02:00:16,360
Speaker 3: program is at in year five under West Miller, moving

2243
02:00:16,440 --> 02:00:18,160
Speaker 3: forward and trying to chart a new path into the

2244
02:00:18,200 --> 02:00:25,000
Speaker 3: Big twelve. Up next for the Bearcats, West Virginia comes

2245
02:00:25,040 --> 02:00:30,360
Speaker 3: into town Thursday, a seven o'clock start at Fifth Third Arena.

2246
02:00:30,400 --> 02:00:33,920
Speaker 3: They follow that up with a Super Bowl Sunday, two

2247
02:00:33,960 --> 02:00:37,920
Speaker 3: o'clock start against UCF. So back to back home games that,

2248
02:00:38,120 --> 02:00:42,200
Speaker 3: hopefully that'll help the scheduling mishap here Austin. Back to

2249
02:00:42,320 --> 02:00:44,400
Speaker 3: back home games coming up for the Bearcats. Big for

2250
02:00:44,480 --> 02:00:50,120
Speaker 3: the body clock, Big for the body clock. We'll take

2251
02:00:50,120 --> 02:00:54,040
Speaker 3: a break, we'll come back and we'll get to mowegger

2263
02:01:34,640 --> 02:01:37,880
Speaker 3: on a Monday afternoon. We've got a couple things here Austin.

2264
02:01:37,920 --> 02:01:39,480
Speaker 3: What do we got here before we get to Mowaga.

2265
02:01:39,520 --> 02:01:39,720
Speaker 21: Yeah.

2266
02:01:39,720 --> 02:01:43,560
Speaker 4: The AFC North coaching staffs continue to get filled out

2267
02:01:44,000 --> 02:01:48,400
Speaker 4: as new head coaches build out their staffs. The Baltimore

2268
02:01:48,520 --> 02:01:52,000
Speaker 4: Ravens have hired a defensive coordinator. They have hired Anthony

2269
02:01:52,200 --> 02:01:56,480
Speaker 4: Weaver was the defensive coordinator for the Miami Dolphins last year,

2270
02:01:57,200 --> 02:01:59,560
Speaker 4: and he was with the Ravens from twenty one to

2271
02:01:59,640 --> 02:02:04,760
Speaker 4: twenty three in assorted roles, including being the assistant head

2272
02:02:04,840 --> 02:02:08,320
Speaker 4: coach back then. He was a head coaching finalist in

2273
02:02:08,360 --> 02:02:12,320
Speaker 4: Arizona and in Pittsburgh, but ends up in Baltimore as

2274
02:02:12,440 --> 02:02:16,560
Speaker 4: the Ravens defensive coordinator. You might remember the Bengals put

2275
02:02:16,600 --> 02:02:19,600
Speaker 4: up forty five on his defense towards the end of

2276
02:02:19,680 --> 02:02:23,600
Speaker 4: this year when they were in Miami. Dolphins and the

2277
02:02:23,680 --> 02:02:26,400
Speaker 4: Ravens have different players, but you know what I mean.

2278
02:02:26,800 --> 02:02:30,680
Speaker 4: So Anthony Weaver the new DC in Baltimore. Meanwhile, in Pittsburgh,

2279
02:02:31,040 --> 02:02:35,360
Speaker 4: three assistant coaches named Jason Simmons will be the defensive

2280
02:02:35,440 --> 02:02:39,840
Speaker 4: pass game coordinator and defensive backs coach. Scott McCurley will

2281
02:02:39,880 --> 02:02:44,240
Speaker 4: be the inside linebackers coach, and Steve Scarnecia. Is that

2282
02:02:44,440 --> 02:02:49,160
Speaker 4: name sound familiar? Scarnekia of course, Dante Scarnekia, the longtime

2283
02:02:49,240 --> 02:02:52,800
Speaker 4: offensive line coach with the Patriots. Steve Scarnekia has been

2284
02:02:52,880 --> 02:02:59,640
Speaker 4: named the chief of staff for Mike McCarthy's staff in Pittsburgh. Meanwhile,

2285
02:03:00,120 --> 02:03:04,160
Speaker 4: just got this email here from the National Baseball Hall

2286
02:03:04,200 --> 02:03:06,720

Speaker 4: Well, you know, twenty twenty six, we're celebrating the two

2291

02:03:35,680 --> 02:03:39,520
Speaker 4: center field at Dodger Stadium back in nineteen seventy six.

2296

Speaker 4: You remember, those guys jumped onto the field, doused it

2297
02:03:43,400 --> 02:03:45,720
Speaker 4: in lighter fluid and We're going to light the American

2298
02:03:45,800 --> 02:03:49,080
Speaker 4: flag on fire in the outfield at Dodger Stadium. And

2299
02:03:49,200 --> 02:03:52,280
Speaker 4: I did not know this until reading this today. Rick

2300
02:03:52,600 --> 02:03:55,960
Speaker 4: Monday was a former US marine. Wow, he saw what

2301
02:03:56,160 --> 02:04:00,440
Speaker 4: was happening. He sprinted over there, snagged the flag and

2302
02:04:00,600 --> 02:04:04,200
Speaker 4: took off with it. Eventually gave it to one of

2303
02:04:04,240 --> 02:04:06,560
Speaker 4: the other pitchers. I think that was on the field

2304
02:04:06,840 --> 02:04:09,520
Speaker 4: for the Dodgers or the Cubs. Whoever it is, got

2305
02:04:09,560 --> 02:04:12,120
Speaker 4: a standing ovation from the visiting career. He was the

2306
02:04:12,240 --> 02:04:15,000
Speaker 4: visiting player, got a standing ovation from the crowd at

2307
02:04:15,040 --> 02:04:17,680
Speaker 4: Dodger Stadium, and then another one when he came to

2308
02:04:17,760 --> 02:04:19,840
Speaker 4: the plate an inning or two later.

2309
02:04:19,960 --> 02:04:21,600
Speaker 3: So I thought that was cool that they have.

2310
02:04:21,800 --> 02:04:26,160
Speaker 4: That flag and it will be out on display at

2311
02:04:26,440 --> 02:04:27,640
Speaker 4: Cooperstown all summer long.

2312
02:04:27,720 --> 02:04:29,920
Speaker 3: It's pretty cool. That is that is way strong.

2313
02:04:30,200 --> 02:04:33,880
Speaker 4: He actually received a phone call from Gerald Ford after

2314
02:04:33,960 --> 02:04:36,360
Speaker 4: the game, the president at the time.

2315
02:04:37,000 --> 02:04:38,960
Speaker 3: To tell him, thank you. Pretty cool call to receive.

2316
02:04:39,000 --> 02:04:42,480
Speaker 3: It's pretty neat Mulwaiger standing by to join us for

2317
02:04:42,560 --> 02:04:45,560
Speaker 3: Quick Hits next ahead of the Moweger Show. It all

2318
02:04:45,600 --> 02:04:48,040
Speaker 3: happens on ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports.

Speaker 2: Now, It's time for Quick Hits on Tony Pikes since he.

2320
02:04:54,240 --> 02:04:57,160
Speaker 3: Was looking for MO. All right, we're back since he

2321
02:04:57,320 --> 02:05:04,360
Speaker 3: three sixty ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station. This Mowiger's

2322
02:05:04,360 --> 02:05:06,120
Speaker 3: show is coming up next on the Home of the

2323
02:05:06,120 --> 02:05:12,680
Speaker 3: Bengals ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station. MO and I

2324
02:05:12,720 --> 02:05:14,840
Speaker 3: are just going on or we're realizing there's people that

2325
02:05:14,920 --> 02:05:16,720
Speaker 3: work here that are just now finding out where this

2326
02:05:17,080 --> 02:05:21,320
Speaker 3: this studio actually is. Huh interesting how that works? Before

2327
02:05:21,360 --> 02:05:23,040
Speaker 3: we get started. Can I do something that I normally

2328
02:05:23,120 --> 02:05:26,040
Speaker 3: don't do? Sure, show, I don't feel like I had

2329
02:05:26,080 --> 02:05:28,040
Speaker 3: it today. I don't feel like I had the whole

2330
02:05:28,080 --> 02:05:31,480
Speaker 3: package today, just bringing it to the show, okay. And

2331
02:05:31,680 --> 02:05:33,320
Speaker 3: one thing I live by is I'm not someone to

2332
02:05:33,400 --> 02:05:36,800
Speaker 3: make excuses. But there's been some sicknesses going around.

2333
02:05:37,000 --> 02:05:37,360
Speaker 7: Uh huh.

2334
02:05:37,920 --> 02:05:40,520
Speaker 3: The snow kept the kids home last week, and again

2335
02:05:40,560 --> 02:05:44,680
Speaker 3: I hate this crap. Yes, I don't do excuses, but

2336
02:05:44,760 --> 02:05:47,040
Speaker 3: I think everything else happening went into my show is.

2337
02:05:47,080 --> 02:05:50,040
Speaker 8: That it like the circumstances surrounding you, Does that make

2338
02:05:50,080 --> 02:05:52,920
Speaker 8: it okay? Having to drive? You know, you live in

2339
02:05:53,040 --> 02:05:56,040
Speaker 8: one place and work in another and I can't travel.

2340
02:05:56,520 --> 02:05:58,720
Speaker 3: And I'm not one to make excuses of course.

2341
02:05:58,600 --> 02:05:58,720
Speaker 11: Or not.

2342
02:05:58,960 --> 02:05:59,000
Speaker 29: No.

2343
02:05:59,720 --> 02:06:02,080
Speaker 36: If you have to say I'm not one to make excuses,

2344
02:06:02,400 --> 02:06:05,120
Speaker 36: you are likely then following it up with an excuse.

2345
02:06:06,360 --> 02:06:08,760
Speaker 36: Like if someone says no offense, guess what's coming out

2346
02:06:08,800 --> 02:06:09,200
Speaker 36: of their mouth.

2347
02:06:10,560 --> 02:06:17,040
Speaker 3: I'm shocked that in today's college basketball, travels a thing.

2348
02:06:17,840 --> 02:06:19,400
Speaker 3: They spent six days in Arizona.

2349
02:06:20,560 --> 02:06:21,440
Speaker 8: You're in the Big twelve.

2350
02:06:22,240 --> 02:06:24,880
Speaker 3: You spent six days in Arizona, came home and played Baylor,

2351
02:06:25,400 --> 02:06:26,840
Speaker 3: and then had a road trip to Houston, and now

2352
02:06:26,880 --> 02:06:30,680
Speaker 3: you're back home for two It's not the hardest schedule around.

2353
02:06:31,160 --> 02:06:32,240
Speaker 3: It happens everywhere.

2354
02:06:32,480 --> 02:06:37,400
Speaker 8: They didn't travel across the planet. Correct, They traveled one time.

2355
02:06:37,400 --> 02:06:39,800
Speaker 3: And they didn't go like it was an Arizona home game,

2356
02:06:39,920 --> 02:06:44,320
Speaker 3: Arizona State. They stayed in Arizona for six days. They

2357
02:06:44,400 --> 02:06:47,600
Speaker 3: came home for a game. Guess what February second. A

2358
02:06:47,680 --> 02:06:49,440
Speaker 3: lot of teams in college basketball banged up.

2359
02:06:49,640 --> 02:06:54,200
Speaker 36: When you decided to join the conference that spans four

2360
02:06:54,280 --> 02:06:56,360
Speaker 36: time zones, yeah potentially, right?

2361
02:06:57,480 --> 02:06:57,840
Speaker 28: Is that right?

2362
02:06:57,960 --> 02:06:59,200
Speaker 8: Is there a Pacific Time zone team?

2363
02:06:59,200 --> 02:06:59,560
Speaker 3: I guess not.

2364
02:07:00,560 --> 02:07:03,400
Speaker 36: But when you decided to join a conference that spans

2365
02:07:03,480 --> 02:07:06,800
Speaker 36: three time zones, yeah, what did you think was gonna happen?

2366
02:07:07,320 --> 02:07:07,360
Speaker 29: It?

2367
02:07:07,840 --> 02:07:09,800
Speaker 8: I know, no coach made that decision.

2368
02:07:10,080 --> 02:07:12,280
Speaker 3: Sure, but this is what comes with you're playing in

2369
02:07:12,320 --> 02:07:15,000
Speaker 3: the Big twelve. I mean, like every other Big twelve mc.

2370
02:07:14,960 --> 02:07:19,280
Speaker 36: Cronin complained about Big Ten scheduling, your school decided to

2371
02:07:19,960 --> 02:07:22,960
Speaker 36: join the league that spans the entire country.

2372
02:07:23,000 --> 02:07:25,520
Speaker 3: It would also help, like McK cronin's comments, if after

2373
02:07:25,520 --> 02:07:28,160
Speaker 3: those comments, you beat a top ten team, yes, that

2374
02:07:28,240 --> 02:07:30,560
Speaker 3: makes it a little bit easier. Yes, but to me again, like,

2375
02:07:31,200 --> 02:07:33,360
Speaker 3: I don't what I don't want to hear after losses,

2376
02:07:33,760 --> 02:07:35,760
Speaker 3: a loss where they lost by twenty two, it could

2377
02:07:35,760 --> 02:07:37,840
Speaker 3: have been worse, is well? Man, those guys in the

2378
02:07:37,880 --> 02:07:40,440
Speaker 3: huddle at the end of the game, they were making

2379
02:07:40,440 --> 02:07:42,480
Speaker 3: sure we're gonna play hard like that. I'm over that.

2380
02:07:42,680 --> 02:07:45,360
Speaker 3: I'm over the play hard stuff. I'm over the moral

2381
02:07:45,440 --> 02:07:47,440
Speaker 3: victory because instead of losing by thirty, you lost by

2382
02:07:47,480 --> 02:07:50,680
Speaker 3: twenty two. I get it. Guys go down and hurt.

2383
02:07:51,000 --> 02:07:55,520
Speaker 3: You're not at full strength. It's college basketball. It's nineteen

2384
02:07:55,520 --> 02:07:58,120
Speaker 3: to four and turnovers. It's lost number eleven. Yeah, they're

2385
02:07:58,160 --> 02:08:02,080
Speaker 3: eleven and eleven went away from it's lost arena.

2386
02:08:02,480 --> 02:08:05,400
Speaker 8: It's just now turning to February. Yep, it's lost number eleven.

2387
02:08:05,640 --> 02:08:07,240
Speaker 8: Like that's a fact.

2388
02:08:08,200 --> 02:08:10,640
Speaker 36: When you have eleven losses going into February, your season

2389
02:08:10,720 --> 02:08:13,240
Speaker 36: isn't going great. Whatever reasoning you want to come up with,

2390
02:08:13,400 --> 02:08:19,040
Speaker 36: whatever rationale, whatever excuses one may want to make, like, unfortunately,

2391
02:08:19,080 --> 02:08:21,560
Speaker 36: I think we're to the point that there is nothing

2392
02:08:21,680 --> 02:08:24,120
Speaker 36: the head coach of this year's team is going to

2393
02:08:24,200 --> 02:08:25,440
Speaker 36: say that's.

2394
02:08:25,280 --> 02:08:28,120
Speaker 8: Going to make anybody feel any better. It just we're

2395
02:08:28,160 --> 02:08:28,840
Speaker 8: well beyond that.

2396
02:08:29,680 --> 02:08:32,520
Speaker 36: And so I'm not going to hold a coach that

2397
02:08:32,680 --> 02:08:35,600
Speaker 36: accountable for stuff he says at this point, because nothing

2398
02:08:35,680 --> 02:08:37,800
Speaker 36: he can say is going to make anybody feel any better.

2399
02:08:38,400 --> 02:08:42,200
Speaker 36: To me, the big takeaway was the two current standard

2400
02:08:42,280 --> 02:08:45,840
Speaker 36: setters in the Big twelve are Arizona and Houston. You've

2401
02:08:45,840 --> 02:08:48,640
Speaker 36: had no chance to beat either. When that changes, the

2402
02:08:48,680 --> 02:08:51,720
Speaker 36: program is turned a corner. When that changes, the program

2403
02:08:51,880 --> 02:08:54,280
Speaker 36: is back, and it feels like the program has a

2404
02:08:54,520 --> 02:08:56,920
Speaker 36: very long way to go to go from where it

2405
02:08:57,120 --> 02:09:01,200
Speaker 36: is to where Houston and Arizona are. The barometer isn't

2406
02:09:01,320 --> 02:09:05,120
Speaker 36: no knock on these programs West Virginia or Baylor or

2407
02:09:05,200 --> 02:09:07,680
Speaker 36: Kansas State or somewhere in the middle of the pack.

2408
02:09:08,120 --> 02:09:09,560
Speaker 36: If you're going to be in the Big twelve, the

2409
02:09:09,680 --> 02:09:12,440
Speaker 36: idea is to win the Big twelve. The idea is

2410
02:09:12,520 --> 02:09:15,240
Speaker 36: to advance deep into the NCAA tournament. Houston makes the

2411
02:09:15,280 --> 02:09:19,320
Speaker 36: Sweet sixteen every single year. Yeah, prerequisite. Arizona has the

2412
02:09:19,440 --> 02:09:23,120
Speaker 36: best team in the country according to most That's what

2413
02:09:23,240 --> 02:09:25,160
Speaker 36: you're trying to be, and it feels like they're all

2414
02:09:25,200 --> 02:09:27,520
Speaker 36: ways away from that. And so unless you give me

2415
02:09:27,600 --> 02:09:31,320
Speaker 36: the answer to how you're going to get there, how

2416
02:09:31,360 --> 02:09:33,600
Speaker 36: you're going to get to where Houston and Arizona are,

2417
02:09:33,880 --> 02:09:39,000
Speaker 36: there's nothing else, no, of course not. There's there's nothing

2418
02:09:39,080 --> 02:09:41,200
Speaker 36: else that any coach is going to say that's going

2419
02:09:41,280 --> 02:09:43,240
Speaker 36: to make any one of us feel any better.

2420
02:09:44,280 --> 02:09:46,600
Speaker 3: A big weekend? Mm hmm. What do you got coming

2421
02:09:46,640 --> 02:09:47,280
Speaker 3: up on the show today?

2422
02:09:47,280 --> 02:09:49,320
Speaker 36: We're going to talk about the big weekend. Red's got

2423
02:09:49,400 --> 02:09:54,840
Speaker 36: a bat, Yes, Hennio Suarez, hey you hey, Nick Krawl

2424
02:09:54,920 --> 02:09:56,560
Speaker 36: having a good old laugh and a lot of people

2425
02:09:56,600 --> 02:09:59,440
Speaker 36: who said he was taking the off season off. So

2426
02:10:00,160 --> 02:10:03,440
Speaker 36: we will obviously discuss say, yu, Hanio Suarez. Because I'm

2427
02:10:03,600 --> 02:10:06,360
Speaker 36: dreaming of something. I hope this dreams comes, this dream

2428
02:10:06,440 --> 02:10:09,240
Speaker 36: comes to fruition, We'll spend time on it. Jeff Carr

2429
02:10:09,360 --> 02:10:12,120
Speaker 36: is going to join us. Plus, do you realize what

2430
02:10:12,200 --> 02:10:15,720
Speaker 36: the New England Patriots did this year. It's something the

2431
02:10:15,760 --> 02:10:18,640
Speaker 36: Bengals must copy. Okay, that coming up in the four

2432
02:10:18,680 --> 02:10:22,080
Speaker 36: o'clock hour, and you'll hear my conversation with five time

2433
02:10:22,320 --> 02:10:23,640
Speaker 36: NBA champion Ron Harper.

2434
02:10:23,800 --> 02:10:26,000
Speaker 8: Wow, who is at the Miami game on Saturday?

2435
02:10:26,240 --> 02:10:29,200
Speaker 3: Miami playing well, Zaman's playing well.

2436
02:10:30,320 --> 02:10:33,280
Speaker 36: The idea of Zabor had a great comeback. I'll say this,

2437
02:10:33,560 --> 02:10:35,480
Speaker 36: for much of that game, they didn't play well and

2438
02:10:35,560 --> 02:10:36,800
Speaker 36: it broke a three game.

2439
02:10:36,760 --> 02:10:40,240
Speaker 3: Losing and I get like, maybe some coaches just don't

2440
02:10:40,280 --> 02:10:42,720
Speaker 3: operate this way. But Patino said something in his post

2441
02:10:42,760 --> 02:10:45,480
Speaker 3: game that I haven't heard in five years of West

2442
02:10:45,520 --> 02:10:48,040
Speaker 3: here in Cincinnati. He said, I've got to give credit

2443
02:10:48,080 --> 02:10:50,560
Speaker 3: to my assistance. They came to me in the second

2444
02:10:50,600 --> 02:10:51,840
Speaker 3: half and they said we need to do this on

2445
02:10:51,920 --> 02:10:54,920
Speaker 3: the screens. We adjusted. I give them credit. It made

2446
02:10:54,920 --> 02:10:58,760
Speaker 3: a difference. I'm not one time in five years remembered

2447
02:10:59,320 --> 02:11:01,680
Speaker 3: West sayan and thing about his assistant coach, let alone

2448
02:11:01,720 --> 02:11:03,880
Speaker 3: watching them in a game and how they operate.

2449
02:11:04,040 --> 02:11:05,960
Speaker 8: To be honest, how many head coaches go out of

2450
02:11:05,960 --> 02:11:07,360
Speaker 8: the way to mention their assistant coaches.

2451
02:11:07,440 --> 02:11:09,880
Speaker 3: Not many, So that's not a Wes Miller. Not many.

2452
02:11:10,280 --> 02:11:12,880
Speaker 36: I honestly, I don't recall Mick that often in the

2453
02:11:12,920 --> 02:11:16,480
Speaker 36: post game going. You know, Darren Savino pulled me aside

2454
02:11:16,520 --> 02:11:17,120
Speaker 36: and said.

2455
02:11:17,640 --> 02:11:18,920
Speaker 3: He was getting beat down the whole game.

2456
02:11:19,200 --> 02:11:20,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, I was yelling at.

2457
02:11:20,000 --> 02:11:23,920
Speaker 36: His assistant coaches, So that's I'm not gonna holp, but

2458
02:11:24,120 --> 02:11:27,960
Speaker 36: I did appreciate that. Richard said that the comeback was remarkable.

2459
02:11:28,800 --> 02:11:32,240
Speaker 36: Philip orovichin and hits a shot that it was funny

2460
02:11:32,280 --> 02:11:36,160
Speaker 36: watching the the video of Joe and Byron that they

2461
02:11:36,280 --> 02:11:40,200
Speaker 36: posted on social media after DePaul tied the game.

2462
02:11:40,280 --> 02:11:41,240
Speaker 8: They looked despondent.

2463
02:11:42,520 --> 02:11:43,200
Speaker 3: They needed that.

2464
02:11:43,320 --> 02:11:45,480
Speaker 36: Because of who they play coming the next week. The

2465
02:11:45,560 --> 02:11:48,000
Speaker 36: next week is it's really really hard. But no awesome

2466
02:11:48,080 --> 02:11:51,760
Speaker 36: comeback for the Musketeers. It was great to see things

2467
02:11:51,840 --> 02:11:54,400
Speaker 36: go their way. Richard said what he said about his staff,

2468
02:11:54,720 --> 02:11:58,160
Speaker 36: I don't know. I mean, I haven't heard many postgame

2469
02:11:58,160 --> 02:12:01,560
Speaker 36: press conferences where a men's head college basketball coach has said,

2470
02:12:01,840 --> 02:12:03,560
Speaker 36: you know, it was my assistance that came up with

2471
02:12:03,600 --> 02:12:05,720
Speaker 36: that bright idea to run this player. You know, my

2472
02:12:05,840 --> 02:12:08,440
Speaker 36: assistants told me here's how we attack that defense.

2473
02:12:10,360 --> 02:12:14,080
Speaker 3: Miami's at large chances, how real are they.

2474
02:12:16,240 --> 02:12:18,960
Speaker 36: If they don't go undefeated, they don't exist. If they

2475
02:12:19,080 --> 02:12:20,720
Speaker 36: do go undefeated. I think it's gonna be.

2476
02:12:20,680 --> 02:12:24,040
Speaker 3: Interesting because it's not like they've been like clean in

2477
02:12:24,120 --> 02:12:28,200
Speaker 3: the MAC. Buffalo is at overtime one five one matter.

2478
02:12:28,280 --> 02:12:28,960
Speaker 3: Do you win that state?

2479
02:12:29,040 --> 02:12:29,080
Speaker 11: No?

2480
02:12:29,200 --> 02:12:31,600
Speaker 3: Absolutely, But it's like they still have They got to

2481
02:12:31,640 --> 02:12:33,600
Speaker 3: go to Buffalo, they got you twice. Still on the

2482
02:12:33,640 --> 02:12:36,800
Speaker 3: schedule Toledo, who's near the top. So they're still going

2483
02:12:36,880 --> 02:12:39,600
Speaker 3: to play some some challenging games. But man, they just

2484
02:12:39,720 --> 02:12:41,880
Speaker 3: find ways to check the box every time I watch them.

2485
02:12:41,920 --> 02:12:42,120
Speaker 7: They do.

2486
02:12:42,280 --> 02:12:44,840
Speaker 36: I mean, you know, I said this after their Umask game,

2487
02:12:44,960 --> 02:12:46,520
Speaker 36: like good teams find a way to win when you

2488
02:12:46,600 --> 02:12:48,680
Speaker 36: don't do everything well, and they had gone through a

2489
02:12:48,760 --> 02:12:50,880
Speaker 36: stretch where they really hadn't defended. I think what's really

2490
02:12:50,880 --> 02:12:52,000
Speaker 36: going to hurt him is if you look at the

2491
02:12:52,000 --> 02:12:54,440
Speaker 36: twenty two wins, only nineteen of them count as it

2492
02:12:54,520 --> 02:12:57,960
Speaker 36: relates to the NCAA tournament. And you know, Pete Gillen,

2493
02:12:58,000 --> 02:13:00,720
Speaker 36: I guess made headlines because this weekend he's their at

2494
02:13:00,800 --> 02:13:02,120
Speaker 36: large schedule is going to hurt.

2495
02:13:02,240 --> 02:13:02,560
Speaker 9: It will.

2496
02:13:02,680 --> 02:13:08,880
Speaker 8: But if you go undefeated, you know, like then it's

2497
02:13:09,320 --> 02:13:10,680
Speaker 8: how do you lose in the MAC tournament?

2498
02:13:10,720 --> 02:13:10,880
Speaker 3: Sure?

2499
02:13:11,240 --> 02:13:12,200
Speaker 8: Is it like last year?

2500
02:13:12,280 --> 02:13:15,320
Speaker 36: Lose by two points in the championship game, because then

2501
02:13:15,320 --> 02:13:17,520
Speaker 36: I would have a hard time keeping them out. Also,

2502
02:13:17,840 --> 02:13:20,320
Speaker 36: like who else makes it? Who steals been? What do

2503
02:13:20,400 --> 02:13:23,600
Speaker 36: the other conference tournaments look like? If it's go undefeated

2504
02:13:23,760 --> 02:13:25,840
Speaker 36: and then play Round one of the MAC, or play

2505
02:13:25,960 --> 02:13:28,400
Speaker 36: in your first round game of the MAC tournament, and

2506
02:13:28,520 --> 02:13:31,240
Speaker 36: you lose by like eighteen points, that's probably gonna be

2507
02:13:31,280 --> 02:13:31,720
Speaker 36: an issue.

2508
02:13:32,320 --> 02:13:36,680
Speaker 8: But I just there's certainly like a low seed ceiling.

2509
02:13:37,920 --> 02:13:40,880
Speaker 36: I don't know that in the absence of winning every

2510
02:13:40,960 --> 02:13:44,280
Speaker 36: single regular season game that they have a legitimate at

2511
02:13:44,400 --> 02:13:48,160
Speaker 36: large chance. Remember the MAC hasn't had a second team

2512
02:13:48,240 --> 02:13:51,360
Speaker 36: make it since Miami in nineteen ninety nine. Crazy, So

2513
02:13:51,520 --> 02:13:54,840
Speaker 36: it's you know, the Mid American Conference has great history

2514
02:13:54,840 --> 02:13:58,240
Speaker 36: and tradition, but there's not a lot of precedent where

2515
02:13:58,280 --> 02:14:02,480
Speaker 36: a team wins the Mid America Conference, loses in the tournament,

2516
02:14:02,560 --> 02:14:03,440
Speaker 36: and then still makes it.

2517
02:14:03,680 --> 02:14:05,800
Speaker 4: But also none of those teams winning a beat. Yeah,

2518
02:14:06,160 --> 02:14:07,560
Speaker 4: what do you make of Rick Barnes the way he

2519
02:14:07,600 --> 02:14:10,680
Speaker 4: started his post kid? Sometimes I wonder if my guys

2520
02:14:10,720 --> 02:14:13,880
Speaker 4: are betting on games. Probably not that first come back

2521
02:14:14,320 --> 02:14:17,360
Speaker 4: we'll come back to. Did acknowledge That's not something I

2522
02:14:17,400 --> 02:14:19,760
Speaker 4: should have said. Yeah, But a lot of fans have

2523
02:14:19,880 --> 02:14:21,160
Speaker 4: wondered that about their teams.

2524
02:14:21,280 --> 02:14:23,120
Speaker 3: Good on him, player and in a time this happened.

2525
02:14:23,200 --> 02:14:27,879
Speaker 3: Kentucky just received another technical foul. They're eighteenth against Arkansas

2526
02:14:27,880 --> 02:14:31,080
Speaker 3: and they found a way to win as well. Moe's next.

2527
02:14:32,160 --> 02:14:34,360
