I am glad you are here. We've 5 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 2: got two hours to get it done tonight.

I'm gonna start here. 8 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 2: I still find it almost impossible to believe the Indiana 9 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,560 Speaker 2: Hoosiers are the national champions in college football after beating 10 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 2: Miami last night. I mean, we can complain all we 11 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 2: want about the state of college football. That was one 12 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 2: hell of a football game, and IU is one hell 13 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 2: of a story. Kurt Signetti was right. He just wins 14 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 2: twenty seven and two in two seasons. 15 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 3: How about the. 16 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 2: Fourth and five call pushes all the chips into the middle, 17 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 2: and how about the run? And I still can't believe 18 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:17,040 Speaker 2: that the hits he took, the run by Fernando Mendoza 19 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:21,040 Speaker 2: and the initial hit and then the reach and they 20 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 2: hit and the touchdown. He had to have needed help 21 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 2: getting out of bed this morning because he took an 22 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:32,479 Speaker 2: absolute beating, including several cheap shots last night. Give Miami Credit. 23 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 2: They answered adversity with two clutch touchdown drives late. But 24 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 2: I and maybe maybe my excitement for this topic stems 25 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 2: from my connection to the state of Indiana and to IU. 26 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 2: I wouldn't consider ie you my favorite teams, but I 27 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 2: do have a connection to the state of Indiana. I 28 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 2: moved to Carmel from Cincinnati in the eighties. I went 29 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 2: to high school in Indiana. I went to college in Indiana. 30 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: I worked four years in Indiana. From a period of 31 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 2: nineteen eighty to nineteen ninety two, I was in the 32 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 2: state of Indiana. My sister went to IU. I spent 33 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 2: a summer on the campus of IU for journalism camp 34 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 2: when I was in high school. 35 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 3: Mary Benedict the legend. 36 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 2: I watched as a Bob Knight fan, Perfection as a 37 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 2: ten year old in nineteen seventy six, I watched Isaiah 38 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 2: lead them. In nineteen eighty one, I was at Butler 39 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 2: watching from my dorm room at Ross Hall when Keith 40 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 2: Smart hit the jumper from the corner of the wing 41 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 2: on the pass from Dean Garrett. In college, I traveled 42 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 2: to so many games in Bloomington. When I was interning 43 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:42,239 Speaker 2: at WRTV six, the India ABC affiliate to cover Indiana 44 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 2: games to get postgame sound during the Bill Mallory years, 45 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 2: he was there for thirteen years. We had season tickets 46 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 2: when Sam Weish was their coach in the nineteen eighty 47 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 2: three season, and man the football at times, oh man, 48 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 2: it was tough. And it always seemed like Indiana would 49 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 2: be like five and six or six and five and 50 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 2: just get into. 51 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 3: A ball and then lose the bowl game. 52 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 2: And there was just so much that just wasn't happening 53 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 2: with Indian footbaul And consider what has taken place in 54 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 2: the last two years. 55 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 3: And I looked it up this morning. 56 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 2: From here to the Bloomington campus, it is one hundred 57 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 2: and twenty eight miles, And I said last night, I 58 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 2: tweeted this just before I went to bed. I was 59 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 2: going to reserve some time for IU conversation tonight and 60 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 2: IU calls. And somebody said to me today, do you 61 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 2: think there's any IU listeners? Do you think anybody will call? 62 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 2: And I said, well, I'm going to find out tonight. 63 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 2: I would think there would be. With the power of 64 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 2: a fifty thousand watt blow towards I would think most people. 65 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 2: If you like sports, I bet you had a conversation 66 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 2: today about the IU game last night. If you are 67 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: an IU fan, the bat signal is officially out to 68 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 2: you at five one, three, seven four nine, seven thousand, 69 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 2: one eight hundred, the big one. If you're just a 70 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 2: college football fan, if you're just a sports fan in general, 71 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 2: and stand up and watch last night and have something 72 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 2: to say about that game. I thought it was worthy 73 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 2: of what we would call in radio terms, a topic 74 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 2: a tonight. The first thing out of the shoot is 75 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 2: IU football, and I don't know if that's gonna net 76 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 2: a lot of calls. I don't know if it's gonna 77 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 2: net no calls. I have no idea. I had the 78 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 2: same conversation with my dad on the way in today. 79 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 2: I said, I really don't know what to expect. But 80 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 2: my sense is the game was so good and the 81 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 2: storyline is so good that somebody will want to talk 82 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 2: about what has transpired with Indiana basketball. To think that 83 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 2: fifty years ago IU basketball was thirty two to h 84 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 2: in national champs under Bob Knight, and no college basketball 85 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 2: team has gone undefeated since, and that now last night, 86 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 2: the Indiana football team, at sixteen and oho becomes an 87 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 2: unbeat national champ and to backpedal to make this a 88 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 2: little bit bigger of a picture, to expand rather than backpedal. 89 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 2: The state of Indiana has authored the following Think about 90 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 2: this for a second. The nineteen fifty four mile in 91 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 2: high school storybook state Championship team, smallest school. They turned 92 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 2: it into a movie Hoosiers IU Basketball. Then in eighteen 93 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 2: twenty seventy six, twenty two years later goes thirty two 94 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:34,720 Speaker 2: to zero. Nobody has done that since. Nobody in college 95 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 2: basketball has gone undefeated since My Butler Bulldogs. Yes I'm 96 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 2: going to include my Butler Bulldogs. Out of the Horizon League, 97 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 2: a school of four thousand went not just to the 98 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 2: final four, but to the national Championship Game. And then 99 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 2: to prove it was that a fluke went right back 100 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 2: the next year to not just the Final four, but 101 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 2: the national Championship game. Almost won the first one if 102 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 2: a shot from Gordon Hayward and just like give me 103 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 2: three inches to the and then you have the Indiana 104 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 2: Hoosiers claiming the national championship. 105 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 3: In college football, are you kidding me? 106 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 4: Indiana? 107 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 2: I entered last season with the most losses in the 108 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 2: history of college football. They are the national champs tonight. 109 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 2: They were preseason number twenty. If you ever needed another 110 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 2: reason and not pay any attention to preseason bowls, they 111 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 2: were preseason number twenty and they were picked to finish 112 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 2: sixth in the Big Ten and their national champs. I 113 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 2: believe AU football was established in eighteen ninety nine. They've 114 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 2: won six bowl games. They won three in the first 115 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty five years. They've won three in 116 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,919 Speaker 2: the last nineteen days or so, probably more than that. 117 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 2: I mean, think about that for a second. They won 118 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 2: six in the history of the school. They won three 119 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 2: in this playoff format. So that's our starting point tonight. 120 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 2: Maybe it's one person who wants to say, nice job, 121 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 2: doesn't matter. I just felt it was worthy of conversation 122 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 2: because of how good that game last night was and 123 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 2: how incredible the story is, because you know his story 124 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 2: is good when you're not sure what to compare it to. 125 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 2: I was reading in the Athletic today and the line 126 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:35,040 Speaker 2: was Indiana's turnaround is one of the most unlikely stories 127 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 2: in American sports history. And I started thinking about it, 128 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 2: and I said, I don't I don't know where to 129 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 2: begin on what it would be comparable to. I have 130 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 2: no idea, And then I was asked further complicating this, 131 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: I was asked last week the question was, well, if 132 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 2: Indianna wins this, what's more impressive the nineteen seventy six 133 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 2: basketball team going undefeated or the twenty twenty five football 134 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 2: team going undefeated and claiming a national championship. And I 135 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 2: don't even know how to begin to compare that. So 136 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 2: I'm starting with a lot of questions. I guess I'm 137 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 2: looking for answers, and I'm giving you a phone number 138 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 2: at five one, three, seven four nine, seven thousand, one, 139 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 2: eight hundred, the Big One.

I remember 339 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 2: asking him, why are you taking that job? And he said, 340 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 2: I'm going to win. And sadly Terry was there two 341 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 2: years and then the health issues and then sadly he 342 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:28,199 Speaker 2: passed away and I'm miss him dearly. When I was 343 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 2: at Butler, Butler's coach was Bill Lynch, who eventually took 344 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 2: over at IU. Cam Cameron, a quarterback at IU, was 345 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:37,919 Speaker 2: their head coach for a time in Twine Randall All 346 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 2: in the late nineties was a fantastic player for Indiana football. 347 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 2: I mean, the legendary story back to the League Courso 348 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:48,119 Speaker 2: days is that at one point in Bloomington, with Indiana 349 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 2: leading Ohio State, Indiana had not led Ohio State in 350 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 2: a game in like a quarter of a century. And 351 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,360 Speaker 2: if I remember this correctly, Indiana took the lead one 352 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 2: Saturday against Ohio States seven to six, and Lee Corso 353 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 2: called time out and they took a picture of the scoreboard, 354 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 2: the team in the sidelines with the scoreboard in the 355 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:13,680 Speaker 2: background showing that Indiana was leading Ohio State. 356 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:15,199 Speaker 3: I will never forget that. 357 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 2: And Sam Wish was there for the nineteen eighty three 358 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 2: season for his one year and then took over took 359 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 2: over the Cincinnati Bengals. 360 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 3: I keep thinking about. 361 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 2: What the athletic wrote today and trying to put it 362 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 2: in terms of what it is comparable to, and the 363 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 2: line was Indiana's turnaround is one of the most unlikely 364 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 2: stories in American sports history. I want to say, like 365 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:42,919 Speaker 2: Cinderella story, but this isn't. This isn't a worst to 366 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 2: first story. This isn't like a team that finished last 367 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 2: one year and then won the Super Bowl the next year, 368 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 2: or finished last one year and won the World Series 369 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 2: the next year. This was, to begin the season the 370 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:02,360 Speaker 2: worst college foot ball team in the history of college 371 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,680 Speaker 2: football program. I mean, the team last year obviously lost 372 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,159 Speaker 2: to Indiana or at lost to Ohio State in the 373 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 2: College or Notre Dame Inhio and the college football playoffs. 374 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 2: But it's the bigger picture of what the program was 375 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,479 Speaker 2: two years ago to winning the national championship. I mean, 376 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 2: sure you could say the I guess the eighty miracle 377 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:27,199 Speaker 2: on ice, but I just don't know that there's something 378 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:31,919 Speaker 2: that I would I would find a fair apples to 379 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 2: apples comparison of just what the turnound is like. If 380 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 2: this is up to date, and I think it is, 381 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 2: Indiana is one of an eye. I would not have 382 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,200 Speaker 2: guessed there were this many schools. Indiana is one of 383 00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:46,440 Speaker 2: eleven schools to win a national championship in both football 384 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 2: and basketball. And a lot of this goes back to 385 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 2: teams wanted in the fifties in football, and there were 386 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 2: there were so many different way whether it was the 387 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:58,719 Speaker 2: Coach's Pole or the upa United Press International Poll. There 388 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:02,640 Speaker 2: were different designations for now national championships, national champions and 389 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 2: that's evolved over the years and computers and bcs and 390 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 2: to the College Football Playoff. But the list I saw 391 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 2: this morning, including Indiana now is UCLA. UCLA won a 392 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 2: shared a national championship in nineteen fifty four with Ohio State, 393 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 2: Ohio State, Syracuse, Maryland, Michigan State, cal Florida, Arkansas, Michigan, 394 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 2: Stanford to go along with Indiana, one of eleven schools 395 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 2: to lay claim to a national championship in both football 396 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,120 Speaker 2: and basketball. And I'm assuming for the sake of this, 397 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 2: none of those other ten, let's see, UCLA would have 398 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 2: had undefeated. Wait, well, wait a minute, did UCLA's national 399 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 2: championship football team have an undefeated season? I was wondering 400 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 2: if Indiana is the only one to have an undefeated 401 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 2: national champ in both sports, but certainly John Woodin's Bruins 402 00:23:55,960 --> 00:24:00,199 Speaker 2: had sixty seven seventy two to seventy three unbeaten, and 403 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 2: I think that fifty four football team went undefeated from 404 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 2: memory of looking it up earlier this morning. The other 405 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 2: question I was asked, and I think this is almost impossible, 406 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 2: is which one's more impressive winning a college basketball national 407 00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 2: championship going thirty two and oh in nineteen seventy six 408 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,720 Speaker 2: or winning the college football national championship going sixteen to 409 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 2: oh in twenty twenty five twenty twenty six season. No 410 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,160 Speaker 2: one's ever gone sixteen and oh in winning the national 411 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,439 Speaker 2: championship because the season hasn't been that long. For the 412 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 2: most part, I think time would be on the side 413 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 2: of the argument for basketball because it has stood up 414 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:45,960 Speaker 2: for fifty years nobody's which makes it more impressive. But 415 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 2: the football team hasn't had years, you know, to add 416 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 2: to its resume for the argument. But fifty years nobody 417 00:24:54,840 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 2: else has finished in undefeated National championship season in college basketball. 418 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 2: That was an experienced Indiana team in seventy six. You 419 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 2: can talk about the age of this IU team, but 420 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 2: I would I would argue it would have been easier 421 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 2: from a basketball standpoint with four year players that you 422 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,199 Speaker 2: recruited and developed and there wasn't the transfer portal and 423 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,320 Speaker 2: Nil and Jez. That team in seventy six would have 424 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 2: been Scotty May would have been a senior, Quinn Buckner 425 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 2: would have been a senior, Bobby Wilkerson a senior, Tom 426 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 2: Abernathy a senior, Jim Cruz a senior, and I think 427 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:36,359 Speaker 2: Kent Benson was a junior on that team, So that 428 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 2: it was easier that you that Bob Knight had a 429 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 2: group that he he groomed and developed and coached up. 430 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 2: Kurt Signetti added what twenty two players in the transfer 431 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,960 Speaker 2: portal this year. I still find it amazing that he 432 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 2: added last season he had added I think fourteen players 433 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,919 Speaker 2: from James Madison, his previous school as part of the 434 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 2: foundation for all of this. You know, somebody on my 435 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 2: Facebook page asked answered this question by simply saying, do 436 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 2: we have to choose? 437 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 3: And I said, if you're an IU fan. 438 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 2: No, you don't have to because you've got a national 439 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 2: champion in both So maybe that ultimately is the best answer. 440 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:17,160 Speaker 2: All right, Heading down the Stretch on Saturday night, it's 441 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 2: one of the coolest scenes around the area. 442 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:19,640 Speaker 3: Each year. 443 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 2: It involves a Teddy Bear toss for a fantastic cause. 444 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 2: It is something the Cyclones do really, really well.
