It was the first time since nineteen 14 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 2: seventy four that a team played just five players every 15 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:04,480 Speaker 2: minute of the game.

That could be an interesting job 31 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 2: opening as well. In the Kansas Jayhawks, the bracket itself, 32 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 2: no mid majors, no mid majors, Austin make up the 33 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:14,079 Speaker 2: Sweet sixteen. 34 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 3: People are complaining about this. They say there's no more Cinderella. Yeah, 35 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 3: that's because there's the money's different. Let's call it what 36 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 3: it is, the money's different. I don't think that it 37 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,679 Speaker 3: necessarily means there can't be a Cinderella. I mean, we've 38 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 3: been close. It's not like you know, I mean, there 39 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 3: hasn't been a ton of them, But yeah, I mean 40 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 3: I don't know that I'm necessarily surprised. No, I don't 41 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 3: feel like I'm less entertained. 42 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 4: No, I see that's me too. 43 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,399 Speaker 2: I feel like it's been a very fun opening round 44 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,799 Speaker 2: or opening two rounds. I mean, Tommy Lloyd, the head 45 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 2: coach for Arizona, who knocked off a very good run 46 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 2: from Utah State last night after the game, said, look, 47 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 2: there's gonna be a breaking point for some of the 48 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 2: lesser programs that just don't have the finances. It's kind 49 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 2: of what it is. The mid major teams are not 50 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 2: going to have the same financial opportunities as these major teams. 51 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 2: And that's I think while you're seeing the representation that 52 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 2: you do in the Sweet sixteen, some really cool moments 53 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 2: over the course of the first full weekend of the 54 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 2: NCAA tournament. Let's start in the East where Dukes squeaked 55 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 2: by Sienna. They then took care of business against TCU, 56 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 2: and they have set themselves up with a matchup coming 57 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 2: up against Saint John's. Saint John's a sixty seven sixty 58 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 2: five winner on the Dylan Darling layup as time expired 59 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 2: in that game. So number one Duke gets number five 60 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 2: Saint John's in the East and then at the bottom 61 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 2: half of that bracket, Michigan State has taken care of 62 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 2: business in their first two games, and Yukon, after a 63 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 2: slow start, took care of UCLA last night. So your 64 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 2: final four teams in the East region Duke, Saint John's, 65 00:03:58,560 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 2: Michigan State, and Yukon. 66 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 3: It was cool to see Mick Cronin lose to uh 67 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 3: Dan Hurley. You want a fun factor back about Mick Cronin. 68 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 4: What's that? 69 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 3: So overall his head coaching record, now this is according 70 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 3: to his Wikipedia page. 71 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 4: I don't know if it's been updated. 72 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:17,159 Speaker 3: With what happened, but he has a five twenty seven 73 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 3: and two forty seven career head coaching record. That's six 74 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 3: eighty one. In postseason tournaments. He is sixteen and sixteen 75 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 3: in the NC DOUBLEA Tournament, five hundred one and one 76 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 3: in the nit ohen one in the CBI. Mick Cronin, 77 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 3: if you go buy those numbers under five hundred in 78 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 3: his career in postseason tournament insane as a head coach, insane, 79 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 3: and once again could not get by a team seated 80 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 3: higher than him in the NCUBA Tournament. 81 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:48,679 Speaker 4: Insane. 82 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 2: Let's go out west for what is the bigger surprise 83 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 2: of the tournament, not that Arizona is still alive. I 84 00:04:56,320 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 2: do think that that Arizona Arkansas match up on Thursday. 85 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 3: Is going to be really good. I got myself leaning 86 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 3: towards the Razor. I mean Arkansas. 87 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 2: They have I think the best point guard in the 88 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 2: country in acuff Arizona is so massive inside, but the 89 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 2: athleticism of Arkansas feels like that team that's peaking at 90 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 2: the right time. They got by High Point, who upset 91 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 2: Wisconsin on Day one of the tournament. 92 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 3: I heard somebody say this morning that could you say 93 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 3: that John Caliperi and Rick Patino are the two guys 94 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 3: best positioned to lead this era of college basketball based 95 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 3: off of their experience coaching JA Crows. You could also, 96 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 3: by the way, talk about that with Nebraska. Nebraska led 97 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 3: by Fred Hoiberg, who was in the NBA for a 98 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 3: little while. Yep, I'm curious about that. 99 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 5: Now. 100 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:54,239 Speaker 3: How much does it affect, you know, the actual game 101 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 3: by game I don't know, maybe not as much, but 102 00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 3: dealing with people, roster building, the financial side of things, 103 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 3: I'm not surprised to see Saint John's in Arkansas right 104 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 3: back in it in the Sweet sixteenth. 105 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 2: Winner of the Sean Miller Invitational last week in Dayton. 106 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 2: Sean Miller himself has a Sweet sixteen squad. They beat 107 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 2: b YU and then Gonzaga. What's going on with Mark 108 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,720 Speaker 2: Few and the Zags. It's the same thing every year, 109 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 2: like it just kind of runs down. Well, I saw 110 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 2: a post this morning. He's like, people don't understand Mark 111 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 2: Few is the Gonzaga programs, Like if you want him 112 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 2: to leave, you wanted to get fired, Like we might 113 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 2: not hear from we might not hear from Gonzaga again. 114 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 2: I think you could kind of make that comparison with Kentucky. Yeah, 115 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 2: Like we were going to talk about the Tyrese Halliburton 116 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 2: tweet over the weekend. So who was it that that 117 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 2: beat Kentucky. 118 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 4: Iowa they beat him? 119 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 3: They Yeah, So Iowa beats Kentucky and Tyrese Halliburton in 120 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 3: the NBA with the Indiana Pacers and Iowa State alum 121 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,159 Speaker 3: said he went to go text all his Kentucky boys 122 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 3: and talk some smacks and now they all consider themselves 123 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 3: Arkansas alum, Like there are lums of Coach Cow rather 124 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 3: than they are alums of the Kentucky program. I also 125 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,559 Speaker 3: saw some Kentucky people over the weekend saying, we really 126 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 3: thought that the program was bigger than Coach Cow, but 127 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 3: maybe we were wrong. 128 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 2: Well, what was big in Kentucky if you go to 129 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 2: the Midwest region is the twenty two million dollars they 130 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 2: spent on the roster only to be beat by nineteen 131 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 2: points in the second round by Iowa State. Now, I 132 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 2: will say this, Iowa State, who was without their second 133 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 2: best player, I thought was extremely impressive. They said at 134 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 2: the halftime show, there's not a defense Kentucky scene all 135 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 2: year that's playing as aggressive and strong as Iowa State is. 136 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 2: They forced a ton of turnovers. But what do you 137 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 2: make Austin of a year where you spent over twenty 138 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 2: million dollars on a roster to be a seven seed 139 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 2: and not even make the sweet sixteen. Yeah, I mean 140 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 2: that's that's an interesting interesting spot. Now in Lexington, Iowa 141 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 2: State advances. They take on Tennessee, who knocked off the 142 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 2: Cinderella run of Miami over the weekend seventy eight to 143 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 2: fifty six. Then Tennessee knocked off Virginia, Iowa Stateton Tennessee 144 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 2: will play and the winner of that game will get 145 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 2: the winner of Michigan, who at this point has slept 146 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 2: walk essentially through to the Sweet sixteen. They now get 147 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 2: Alabama Austin, Alabama ninety to sixty five winner over Texas 148 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 2: Tech last night. I think everyone saw Alabama, their second 149 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 2: leading scorer, got kicked off. He was a two point 150 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 2: one pounds of wed that were in It was in 151 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 2: his room, so everyone kind of wrote them off. They 152 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 2: beat Hofstra by twenty they beat Texas Tech by twenty five. 153 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 2: Playing at the right time right now with Alabama might 154 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,599 Speaker 2: be a sneaky good one against Michigan on Friday. Yeah, 155 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 2: I mean, Roll Todd, I wonder what the conversations are 156 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 2: in Lexington right now, and I'm sure we'll hear it 157 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 2: from some talkbackers in Big Blue Nation of what's transpiring 158 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 2: with the Kentucky program. 159 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 3: Outside of that, the final said, any of these lines 160 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 3: surprise you Sweet sixteen line? I mean you just mentioned 161 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 3: that game. Michigan's favored by ten and a half a. 162 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 2: Little bit, I think Iowa State would be favored by 163 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,079 Speaker 2: more in all honesty against Tennessee. That Line's four and 164 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 2: a half produced six and a half over an eleven 165 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 2: seed as a two seed is surprising to me. Arizona 166 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 2: Arkansas eight and a half feels a little bit big. 167 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 2: Michigan State Yukon, I feel like it's a coin flip 168 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 2: and it's only a two and a half point spread. 169 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 2: I think Duke Saint john six and a half is 170 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 2: probably right, although I could see away in which Saint 171 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 2: John's wins that game. And then obviously in the South, 172 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,719 Speaker 2: the final region has the biggest upset so far of 173 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 2: the tournament. Iowa knocks off top ranked Florida seventy three, 174 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 2: seventy two and Austin. It sets up what would be 175 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 2: a great football matchup Iowa Nebraska. 176 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 3: That is one of them, that is one of the 177 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:53,079 Speaker 3: best rivalries that nobody talks about in college sports. I mean, 178 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 3: those two teams hate each other, and I think that'll 179 00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 3: be a lot of fun. 180 00:09:58,400 --> 00:09:59,079 Speaker 4: Now you get that. 181 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 2: And on the other side of that, Illinois has cruised 182 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,719 Speaker 2: through their first two. Houston cruise through their first two 183 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 2: Houston and Illinois that's going to be a ten o'clock 184 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 2: start on Thursday. Just a three and a half point 185 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 2: spread right now. 186 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 3: Who do you want to win the national championship? Not 187 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 3: picking your bracket, just like who were you most interested 188 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 3: in winning the national championship at this point? 189 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 2: There are three teams that I think would be awesome 190 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 2: story and every team would be a great storyline. I 191 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 2: think Samson getting one at Houston would be cool. I 192 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 2: think Saint John's and Patino or calan Arkansas would be awesome. 193 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 3: I was gonna say Patino and cal Perry. I just 194 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 3: think it would be a cool story. 195 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 4: Yep, agreed. 196 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 2: Out of the final remaining sixteen teams, just one ACC 197 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 2: team remains. Yeah, they were terrible this year. The Big 198 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 2: Ten has been dominant. I mean, say what you want 199 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,599 Speaker 2: about also what the regular season looks like. They have 200 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 2: been dominant in the sweet sixteen. 201 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,439 Speaker 3: I'm not one of those people that believes you should 202 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 3: root for the conference of your favorite team. I'll never 203 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,559 Speaker 3: root for Michigan and Michigan State. I'm sure as that 204 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 3: I'm not rooting for Illinois, like I'm not rooting for 205 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 3: any of those Big Ten teams. 206 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 4: Iowa. 207 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously somebody something's got to give in that game. 208 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 3: But I've just never been that. I've never subscribed to 209 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 3: that belief that you should root for your conference. 210 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 4: I think that's kind of silly. 211 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 2: What what do you kind of view as as the 212 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 2: best Sweet sixteen matchup out there? Is it Duke Saint 213 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 2: John's Yeah? 214 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 3: Probably. I think Illinois and Houston will probably probably be 215 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 3: like a sneaky good one. 216 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, and like you said, the tension with Iowa Nebraska 217 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 2: should be phenomenal. Yeah, where is that game being played? 218 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:49,080 Speaker 2: Do we know that is in Houston? Okay, So that 219 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 2: was one of the things when that when the bracket 220 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 2: came out, that was interesting as Houston had to travel 221 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:55,680 Speaker 2: for their first two games. But if they could make 222 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 2: the Sweet sixteen, they're they're Sweet sixteen, an Elite eight 223 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 2: game are in their hometown. Yeah, They're playing in Houston. 224 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 2: So I think that's something to watch with Kelvin Samson's 225 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 2: Houston Cougar's as well. I did see per ESPN they 226 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 2: had like twenty six or twenty eight million million brackets 227 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 2: filled out only two remaining are perfect. 228 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:20,199 Speaker 3: I think that's over now. I think the none Florida 229 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 3: loss destroyed that. Wow, from what I heard this morning. Okay, 230 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 3: but don't quote me on see if I can. That's 231 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 3: that double check. 232 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 2: If so out of twenty six or twenty eight million, 233 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 2: that's insane. Good for those folks who made it that far. 234 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I haven't seen that there are any yes, zero 235 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 3: man perfect brackets. 236 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 4: Not even one Sweet sixteen game in. 237 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 3: I saw that the person who had a perfect bracket 238 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 3: last year never got paid. Really, so, I don't know 239 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 3: what the story is there. I'm sure there's probably something interesting. 240 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:57,719 Speaker 3: I do think it's You can go on the celebrity 241 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 3: brackets page on esp in and see what some of 242 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 3: these people, if we care, have filled out. How about 243 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:16,439 Speaker 3: Peter Schrager picked the Arkansas Razorbacks to win the national championship. Okay, 244 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 3: a lot of Arizona on here notes that did happen. 245 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 2: Iowa State mentioned Jefferson, who was out he hopes to 246 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 2: return in the Sweet sixteen that Kentucky lost was its 247 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 2: worst Kentucky worst tournament loss since nineteen seventy two. And 248 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 2: March Madness listen to this has its best television start 249 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 2: since twenty eleven. Viewership was up five percent. So since 250 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 2: CBS and TNT began showing all the games in twenty eleven, 251 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 2: their viewership has seen the best start, And I think 252 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 2: that's always interesting Austin. When you go about people that 253 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 2: talk about NIL and the transfer portal ruining the sport, 254 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 2: a lot of people are still tuning into it. 255 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:01,199 Speaker 4: Yeah, I know. 256 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 3: You know Mode did a whole segment on that not 257 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 3: that long ago about how you know, everybody can say 258 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 3: that this is ruining the sport and it's the wild 259 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 3: wild West, and I can't stand this and I can't 260 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:12,679 Speaker 3: stand that. 261 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 5: Now you. 262 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:21,359 Speaker 2: Let's grab one phone call before we get to our talkbacks. 263 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 4: David is calling in. What's up, David? 264 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, just because I don't like what they're doing doesn't 265 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 5: mean I'm. 266 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 4: Not going to watch. 267 00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 5: Hey, first off, Audio, you said something great that I've 268 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 5: been telling people too, that the Calipari's and the Potinos, 269 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 5: not only are they obviously been in the NBA and 270 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 5: they're coaching that way, but they've also turned their entire 271 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 5: athletics system into an NBA franchise. They've got the general managers, 272 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 5: they've got scouts, they've got people who are dedicated just 273 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 5: to the NIO market. And if you've got that kind 274 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 5: of cachet and you can convince your athletic department to 275 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 5: do that, I think that's where the success is going 276 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 5: to be side note as well too. I've gotten my 277 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 5: bracket Saint John's over Arkansas final game. So I'm loving 278 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 5: life and I'm doing really way. I did not get 279 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 5: into your bracket because everybody and their brother asked me 280 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 5: to get into theirs. I nailed thirty one out of 281 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 5: the thirty two first round games. I have no idea 282 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 5: how I did it. I don't know why I picked 283 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 5: High Point, I got them. But anyway, for what it's worth, 284 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 5: I was in Saint Louis and I wanted to say 285 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 5: this because I got back home here and I'm hearing 286 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 5: all these Kentucky fans.

Over the weekend, he did a couple 405 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 9: of spin moves here and there. His ankle could have 406 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 9: gotten and worse, his knee or his aco could have 407 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 9: been torn all for what nothing.

The dudes 422 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,439 Speaker 3: are making a lot of cash doing that. I would 423 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,400 Speaker 3: love to know the amount of money that Joe Burrow 424 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,919 Speaker 3: was paid for the Pro Bowl and for that, I 425 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 3: bet it's a lot of money. More aware more at 426 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 3: that or more at the Pro Bowl. Probably more at that, 427 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,720 Speaker 3: I would assume.

With blisters being 500 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 3: a problem for Red's pitchers for multiple seasons, you think 501 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 3: they would have discovered callous. 502 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 4: Building to prevent them. By now, it. 503 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 8: Seems like a pretty fast and effective way of dealing 504 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 8: with blisters. 505 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 4: So why don't they already do this? It is so 506 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 4: sure they try to figure out ways. 507 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 3: I would assume the reason for that would be the 508 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 3: grip on the ball. You have to be able to 509 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 3: have a grip on the ball that can create that spin, 510 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 3: and if you have a callous you probably can't. 511 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 2: I wonder if the heat as well in Arizona had 512 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 2: something to do with it. That's what they say. 513 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 3: They say the heat makes it happen quicker, and it 514 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 3: was well over one hundred in Arizona for like two weeks, 515 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 3: so I'm sure that played a role. 516 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 12: It's greg three days before opening day, Hunter green out. 517 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 4: Nick Wodolah Gee. 518 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 8: I hope Tyler Stevenson can make in another three days. 519 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 4: And be able to play Thursday. 520 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 8: Those three guys are nothing but soft. 521 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 4: Wow. It's quite an accusation. 522 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 2: So when will we know more about the the Lodolo 523 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:14,320 Speaker 2: side of things today? 524 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 3: I would assume I would assume today, So and they talk, 525 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 3: I don't I don't know who all is going to 526 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 3: be in Milwaukee. 527 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 2: My my concern though, covering is that when talking about 528 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 2: the blister, Francona said, quote, they popped it over in 529 00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 2: the training room and drained some of it. So if 530 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:35,439 Speaker 2: that's the case that if it's popped, I don't know, 531 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 2: that's that's not the early stages of a blister. That's 532 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,919 Speaker 2: that's kind of on the back end of it. Not ideal. 533 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 3: And there's like a there's something they call second skin 534 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 3: that you can put on that. I guess it's just 535 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 3: all about the recovery. 536 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 2: In August of last year, he had the blister issue 537 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 2: and he missed twenty three days. 538 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 4: Yeah. 539 00:27:56,880 --> 00:28:00,919 Speaker 13: Delta Airlines canceled my trip to Hawaii last week because 540 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 13: of bad weather. I ended up staying in Los Angeles 541 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 13: for several days. While there, I asked people, do you 542 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 13: know Tony Pike? No one knew Tony Pike except one 543 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 13: guy hesitated. He was like the architect and I'm like, Noah, 544 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 13: never blind. Anyway, it's good to be back, Austin. I 545 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 13: heard you in the first hour say I'm dead last 546 00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 13: in some basketball pool. You got the wrong guy, brother, 547 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:26,679 Speaker 13: I'm not in any basketball. 548 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 4: Oh sure you're not. Man, is there your pastor maybe 549 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 4: it is. I guess we don't know. 550 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 14: I got a question about the show. Who decides the 551 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 14: starting times of each show or is it just based 552 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 14: on like ads, uh, because. 553 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 1: I know you guys usually. 554 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 14: Start at twelve oh one and then Moe starts using 555 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 14: like three oh six, So I'm just wondering what determines that. 556 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 3: So our clock is a little bit different than Moe's clock, 557 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 3: and it's based off of ESPN. So if you listened 558 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 3: during Moe's show, they do a top of the hour 559 00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 3: sports center, or at least when Moe hits it on time. 560 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 3: So three o'clock you hear a sports center, four o'clock 561 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 3: you hear a sports center, five o'clock you hear a 562 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 3: sports center. So I'm it go sports center and then 563 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 3: some spots and then Mo starts. Yep, I think, and 564 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 3: I don't know this for sure, but I think when 565 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 3: this show started, the goal was to make it very 566 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 3: different than anything else, which meant that it started at 567 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 3: the top of the hour, which was once people start listening, 568 00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 3: they'll stay there, as opposed to Okay, you go over 569 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 3: to one station to hear the news and then you 570 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 3: come back to come to this and blah. 571 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 4: Blah blah blah blah blah blah. 572 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 2: I think I wasn't it originally with I think it 573 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 2: was with three sixty It was three segments in the hour. 574 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 4: Segments were a little louder at one point or longer 575 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 4: at one point. Yeah. 576 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 3: And the whole purpose was that James, I think, would 577 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 3: take one topic, yeah and look at three different sides 578 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 3: of it. 579 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 15: Yeah. 580 00:29:58,640 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 4: So yeah, and its inception. 581 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 8: My reason for optimism this season for the Reds is 582 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:04,719 Speaker 8: pretty simple. 583 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 11: I think we'll score more runs than they did last year. 584 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 11: Those two to one ball games that we seemingly always lost. 585 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 4: I feel like we'll be on. 586 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 11: The other side of that spectrum just simply because we're 587 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 11: gonna score more runs. 588 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 4: I feel like we can hit better. 589 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 8: And if that's the case, I think we have a 590 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:22,719 Speaker 8: potential to have a very very good season. 591 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 4: Take the over, let's go. Okay. 592 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 3: My pushback would be, how many games are they going 593 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:29,240 Speaker 3: to be giving up two or fewer runs? 594 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 4: Great questions? That's what fellas happy one day. 595 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 16: Unlike Wes Miller, Pat Noonan may have just bought himself 596 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 16: a little more time yesterday. I mean, what a comeback 597 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 16: giving up the PK to go down three to two 598 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 16: in the sixty fourth minute with the Miles Robinson red 599 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 16: card not leave me with a lot of hope, But somehow, 600 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 16: some way they did it. Hey, is it too late 601 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 16: to substitute Nick Haglin and for Andrew Abbott on an 602 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 16: opening day I mean, not throwing for the game winning goal. 603 00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 4: Was spot on? Okay hagling for. 604 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 16: But jokes aside, we did go from a possible top 605 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 16: five rotation to Hunter Green out for half the season. 606 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 16: Another dolo blister that may linger and our opening day 607 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 16: starter getting rocked all spring. Yeah, I expect the offense 608 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 16: to be better, but it's unlikely to make a difference 609 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 16: if our top of the rotation guys aren't available or effective. 610 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 4: Yeah. 611 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,720 Speaker 16: Having said that, I'm absolutely stoked for Thursday. 612 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 4: Hope to see you. 613 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 16: Guys down at Smoke Justice have a good one. 614 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 4: Yeah. 615 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 2: I always think it's unique as well. Like we've talked 616 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 2: to Bob Mannging from Novacare about this before. How you 617 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 2: deal with an injury at the start of a season 618 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 2: versus the middle of the season versus the end of 619 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 2: the season. You know, how cautious are you at the 620 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 2: start of the year to make sure it's not something 621 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 2: that lingers throughout a whole year. 622 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 17: Love the tournament. I'll tell you Kansas, Florida played some 623 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 17: horrible defense at the end. You know, Kansas, you gotta 624 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 17: let some time run off the clock to how Florida 625 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 17: was doing. I think rad's be optimistic about South Stewart 626 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 17: sore As McClain. 627 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 18: Okay, okay, hey, fellas, it's Mike in La. I'm going 628 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 18: to proceed to talk about how good Florida is for 629 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 18: sixteen weeks straight and continue to clog up the airways 630 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 18: with how good they are, and then they're gonna get 631 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 18: bounced in the second round. Are you kidding me? 632 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 19: Oh jeez. 633 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 3: There's been a lot of criticism towards Mike in La. 634 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 3: The last couple unbelievable, Hi, Tonian and Austin. 635 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 20: I'm believing. Yeah, there still are Cinderellas. Look at Iowa. 636 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 20: Iowa stunk this year and here they are, so you know, 637 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 20: who knows. We'll see how far that takes them. I 638 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 20: was really hoping Akron would be the Cinderella, but yeah, 639 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,720 Speaker 20: that didn't happen either. Okay, guys, have a great day 640 00:32:58,920 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 20: and a great week. 641 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 2: I don't think it's as much about Cinderella's as it 642 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 2: is the mid majors. Like the Iowa Hawkeys as a 643 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 2: nine seed, great story, they have the money available in 644 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 2: the Big ten. I think it's more about the nil 645 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 2: dollars in the mid majors, like eleven seeded Texas. That 646 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 2: could be a Cinderella story, but Texas plays in a 647 00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 2: power conference. Texas spends a lot of money on their roster. 648 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 2: That's a little bit different than what the mid majors 649 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 2: are able to do. 650 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 21: I mean, yeah, Austin in an error of college sports 651 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 21: where you can pay the athletes legally, who would have 652 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 21: be surprised for Patino and John Caliphira be the two 653 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 21: most successful coaches? 654 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 4: Noted yeo, Tony. 655 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 15: I'm going to assume you don't have any idea how 656 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 15: to clip what someone says. But Austin just said, yeah, 657 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 15: I mean roll Tide, you should probably clip that. 658 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 4: Save it. He's got like probably thirteen of you.
