All right, let's get 10 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:38,840 Speaker 4: to it. 11 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 5: So what are the odds that the Bengals tagging trade trade? 12 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 6: But we do it after the NFL Draft. It just 13 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 6: seems like they always sit on their hands. 14 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 2: And wait the very last minute, the eleventh hour, fifty 15 00:00:57,360 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 2: ninth minute, and fifty nine seconds before they pulled it. 16 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 6: And if anything seems like a slam dunk with this. 17 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 4: Organization, we seem to always get blocked by the rim. 18 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 6: It's like a day to a Thomas dunk. He looks good, 19 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,960 Speaker 6: he's in the air, and then blocked by the rim. 20 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 4: Ouch fair and accurate, Fair and accurate. That's something I 21 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 4: and that's my bad. I wasn't around this weekend down 22 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 4: in Bowling Green for a dog a volleyball tournament for 23 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 4: my daughter. The rumors going around right now or that 24 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 4: the Indianapolis Colts right are interested in a uh TAG 25 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 4: and trade with Trey Hendrickson with the Bengals, I would 26 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 4: do it. I don't see any way that Trey Hendrickson 27 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 4: plays for the Bengals in twenty twenty six. So if 28 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 4: you can get something for him, absolutely now to the 29 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 4: point of the caller, yeah, it does seem like something 30 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 4: they'd screw up and they get something, but it wouldn't 31 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 4: be for even another year, being the twenty twenty seven draft, 32 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 4: and probably you know, a lower than expected pick to 33 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 4: begin with. I just don't trust Dukesobin until he gives 34 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 4: me reason to trust him. I don't trust him to 35 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 4: do to make the smart, prudent, aggressive move. 36 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:30,239 Speaker 3: We'll see. 37 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 7: Happy Monday, guys, Hapy Monday.

I 190 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 4: have facts. 191 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 6: I have them. We can do them after this segment. Okay, 192 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 6: I've got a ton of them, and they're good. 193 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 4: The Modern Year of presidents. I think we're gonna skip. Yes, 194 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 4: the last forty years were forget they're out. We're done 195 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 4: with all those guys. They're out, So maybe we'll get 196 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 4: to that. 197 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 3: Keep it moving, hey, Jack soon. 198 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 11: I'm sure you get this question all the time, but 199 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 11: I'm going to ask it anyway. What are the chances 200 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 11: that the Bearcats actually keep Wes Miller because of these 201 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 11: last few victories down the stretch here, and if they 202 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 11: do actually move on from him? Who are the legitimate 203 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 11: targets in your mind? I've heard Calhoun, I've heard a 204 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 11: couple of other people, But who are legitimate targets in 205 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 11: your mind that they would actually pursue. 206 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 4: I think the assignment is still the assignment. Make the 207 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 4: nc DOUBLEA tournament. I don't know Year five right, like 208 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 4: year five, make the NCAA tournament. If he can find 209 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 4: a way to do it, I think he keeps his job. 210 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 4: If he doesn't, I've always said, let me let me 211 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,439 Speaker 4: see what it looks like. It's a little cloudier than 212 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 4: maybe it was a month ago because they have been 213 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 4: able to put some wins together. They are one game 214 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 4: under five hundred and the Big twelve. They do have 215 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 4: a massive upset over Iowa State. That's the thing, Like, 216 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 4: we're in a society where everybody wants to like tell 217 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 4: you the end of the book, but they've only read 218 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 4: the first like five chapters. I guess not how it's 219 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 4: not how reading a book goes. You gotta wait until 220 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 4: you read the whole book. Then you make a judgment 221 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 4: on the book. I think it's a you know, it's 222 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 4: a it's a massive uphill climb to get into the 223 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 4: NCAA tournament right now. Think of it like this, though, Sean, 224 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 4: if they beat it, just two games, if they just 225 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 4: win Eastern Michigan and Xavier. 226 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, just those two. 227 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, you're in a much different situation. You're on the bubble. 228 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 4: People are talking about you in the NCUBA tournament total. 229 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 4: So that's kind of been the drawback of the West 230 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 4: Miller era is you know, what if? 231 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:58,720 Speaker 3: What if? What if? 232 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 4: And I think he needs to get in terms of, 233 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 4: you know, pop potential replacements. I think Jared Calhoun is 234 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 4: the most obvious in terms of he's one of the 235 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 4: two hottest names Calhoun and Josh Shirts from Saint Louis. 236 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 3: Jared Calhoun. If you don't know the head coach at 237 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 3: Utah State. 238 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 4: Graduated from UC in two thousand and four, worked on 239 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 4: Bob Huggins's staff as a you know, manager student assistant 240 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 4: back in those days. Them was with Hugs at West 241 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:33,559 Speaker 4: Virginia for five years director of operations and also one 242 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 4: year as an assistant coach coach at Youngstown State for 243 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 4: eight years now at Utah State. Josh Shirtz, if you remember, 244 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 4: coached Indiana State with the Indiana State team you see 245 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 4: played in the n IT a couple of years ago 246 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 4: with Larry Nerd Robbie Avila, and they both are having 247 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 4: fantastic seasons. So those are probably the two biggest names 248 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 4: to keep an eye on. I'll have a full list 249 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 4: when the coaching if there's a coaching search, we'll have 250 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 4: a hot board up as soon as there is a 251 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 4: coaching change. 252 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 6: Here's my question for you, Chad. 253 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 5: I know it's college football, but with what Kurt Signette's doing, 254 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 5: you got to think that the people that you see 255 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 5: are thinking, all, right, year five of Wes Miller should 256 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,439 Speaker 5: have made the tournament by now, yeah, if not this 257 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 5: year when when? Yeah, you know, and what Kurt Signette's 258 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 5: doing kind of only exacerbates the problem for Wes Miller. 259 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 4: I don't think Kurt Signetti has anything. I mean, I 260 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 4: know from a fans perspective it does. John Cunningham's not 261 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 4: looking at it and thinking. 262 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 6: You don't think so. 263 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 3: No, No, Kurt Signetti is a complete one of one. 264 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 6: Like that's true. That's true. 265 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 4: A guy in almost in his sixties that's never really 266 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 4: been a head coach at the high major level, all 267 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,439 Speaker 4: of a sudden comes into the worst program in the 268 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 4: history of major conference football and turns it into a 269 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,559 Speaker 4: national championship in two years. If you're chasing that, you're 270 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 4: never going to get there, right, And my question, I 271 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 4: mean not so much, John Cunningham. 272 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,719 Speaker 5: What about like the donors, the people who want to 273 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,679 Speaker 5: expect results because they're giving so much money. 274 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,079 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I know a lot of the donors are. 275 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,959 Speaker 4: They like Wes, Like most people, they like Wes. They 276 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 4: want Wes to succeed, and you should. They believe in him. 277 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 4: But the question being, I mean five years, five years 278 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 4: is enough rope. But I love Wes, Yes, Like I've 279 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 4: gotten to know Wes really well over the years. We've 280 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 4: had a great working relationship. He's been awesome to my family. 281 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 4: But it's a results business and the results are not 282 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 4: yet there and five years. If you can't get it 283 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,480 Speaker 4: done in five how you know, do you really want 284 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 4: to be in a situation like pitt with Jeff Caple, 285 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 4: who they can't really fire because they don't have enough 286 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 4: money and he's been to like one NCAA tournament in 287 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 4: eight nine years. Same with like a Johnny Dawkins at UCF, 288 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 4: same situation like it's I just don't think you can 289 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 4: given another year if this year doesn't have NCAA tournament 290 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 4: attached to the end of it. 291 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 8: Yeah. 292 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 3: Good to hear you today, Chad. Yeah, talk back down. 293 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 8: That was a rough performance. 294 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 3: They were not good the other day for yesterday. Yeah. 295 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 3: I agree with Mike. 296 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 10: The Pirates have a nice ross, your nice pitching staff, 297 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 10: and like you said, we'll see how committed they are 298 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 10: to it. I think they should be. If you're not 299 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 10: going to try. 300 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 3: To win, why have a team to make money. 301 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 10: It's hard being a Reds fan, harder to be. 302 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 3: A Pirate, I agree. 303 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 4: I agree, That's why I don't have a lot of 304 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 4: faith in Like I agree, the Pittsburgh roster has improved. 305 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 4: A gun to my head, and I don't know why 306 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 4: anybody would put a gun to my head over this. 307 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 4: But I think Pittsburgh's just as good, if not better, 308 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 4: roster construction wise than Cincinnati is coming into this season. 309 00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 4: But they give you no reason to have faith confidence 310 00:15:59,800 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 4: in that. 311 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 9: Is there any chance west Miller comes back home and 312 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 9: see how you see him ring him back? 313 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 3: They make the tournament. 314 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 4: It gets interesting if you play yourself all the way 315 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 4: back onto the bubble and like the NCAA list, Shoe 316 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 4: is one of the first four out, because then Wes 317 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 4: is going to have his at his behest played without 318 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 4: Jisel the first third of the season didn't have Jalen 319 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 4: Haynes the entire way. I still think it's you have 320 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 4: to get in. But the thing about Wes is you 321 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 4: want to talk about bottoming out, He hasn't bottom out. 322 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 4: You want to know what bottom bottom out looks like. 323 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 4: Look at Manhattan Kansas. They were one and eleven in 324 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 4: the Big Twelve. They got their doors blown off by 325 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 4: a very average Cincinnati team at home, and a week 326 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 4: later Jerome tangs out. That's bottoming out, you see, as 327 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 4: not bottomed out. As teams play hard, they continue to fight, 328 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 4: they might not be good enough to get exactly to 329 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 4: where the fan base wants them to be, but they 330 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 4: have not been a disgrace to the university. I guess 331 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 4: as Kansas State used to fire Jerome Tank. Yeah, the 332 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 4: Winter Olympics be a lot more interesting if the US 333 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:22,960 Speaker 4: wasn't getting their butt whooped. 334 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:24,639 Speaker 2: By ther Way. 335 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,159 Speaker 8: I think we're now like eight gold eight medals. 336 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, it's not a it's not a winter country. 337 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 4: I don't think there's spots of the country that are, 338 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 4: you know, winter specific.
