Speaker 1: The following takes place between six pm and seven pm.
Speaker 1: Do you want answers? I think I'm entitled.
Speaker 2: You want answers? The truth? You can't handle the truth?
Speaker 1: Truth, the truth. All right, let's get to it. Six
Speaker 1: oh eight seven hundred WLW. You welcome into RNL.
Speaker 3: Carry or sports Talk forsentaby Kelsey Chevrolet. I'm last for callister,
Speaker 3: No time to waste, Let's get to it. My first
Speaker 3: guest has lived the Crosstown Shootout as a player and
Speaker 3: as a broadcaster, going back to the early nineties and
Speaker 3: his final four bear Cats. He teams with Dan Horde
Speaker 3: on the call tonight coverage coming up here at seven o'clock.
Speaker 3: That means we are talking to nonether than Terry Nelson.
Speaker 3: T Now, how are you?
Speaker 4: What's going on?
Speaker 1: Brother?
Speaker 4: If it's noise hair, it's because I'm in the day
Speaker 4: of your media rooms.
Speaker 1: A bunch of people in here understood. Take me back.
Speaker 3: You arrived here in ninety one with Corey and Eric
Speaker 3: Martin from California, so I'm sure the the shootout was
Speaker 3: not on your radar. When did it really hit you
Speaker 3: in terms of just how.
Speaker 1: Big this game was?
Speaker 4: When I opened my mouth, when I over my mouth
Speaker 4: and said that we should blow him out. They don't
Speaker 4: have a chance, you know, across then shoot out of
Speaker 4: the Bible gang members going at it where I'm from,
Speaker 4: and I didn't think anything of it until the media
Speaker 4: storm hit. Like it was a really build up back then,
Speaker 4: and I'm like, wait a minute. Practice was harder, guys
Speaker 4: were you know, it was a little bit more intense
Speaker 4: from Huggins and he was already intense. And then when
Speaker 4: you know, we I didn't know wasn't supposed to talk
Speaker 4: trash when you're going into an environment like that.
Speaker 5: I never seen the environment like that before, and it
Speaker 5: was awesome.
Speaker 3: Day Day is the only player on either roster tonight
Speaker 3: who has played in and experienced this thing. If you
Speaker 3: could talk to this Bearcat group before the tip, what
Speaker 3: would you tell him about tonight?
Speaker 4: Use behave as energy because it's real. Use the hated energy.
Speaker 4: Use what they say as fans towards you. Don't take
Speaker 4: it personal. They're doing whatever they can do to try
Speaker 4: to get you out of your game in order to
Speaker 4: be successful. So a lot of players in their first
Speaker 4: time they get shocked by the crowd and how the
Speaker 4: crowd can be nasty and I'm like, man, this is
Speaker 4: the rivalry. So you're gonna hear stuff that you haven't
Speaker 4: heard before. Don't respond to it. The only way to
Speaker 4: respond to it. You can make them be quiet by
Speaker 4: by you know, running up to score terry.
Speaker 3: In a game where emotions run high, how big a
Speaker 3: role or what kind of role should the officials play
Speaker 3: in it?
Speaker 4: Stand away from it. You know, they keep going to
Speaker 4: talk about the fight.
Speaker 5: The fight was a.
Speaker 4: One time thing and there was some guardrails put in place.
Speaker 4: You know, you start playing down at the Heritage Bank
Speaker 4: Center for a couple of years, and you know, before
Speaker 4: you know it, it's you know, you're back on campuses
Speaker 4: and now they kind of come out and they can
Speaker 4: feel the energy and they want to call founds. They
Speaker 4: want to make sure they set the tone. It's like, no,
Speaker 4: this is not your game to set a tone. That
Speaker 4: the players set the tone. It's gonna be some physicality.
Speaker 4: There's gonna be some files that have missed uh, and
Speaker 4: hopefully they're missed on purpose.
Speaker 1: On both sides.
Speaker 4: Guys need to finish and when they when they finish,
Speaker 4: let the you know, rest just stay out the way.
Speaker 4: Don't try to put a commanding tone.
Speaker 1: On it, Terry.
Speaker 3: When you're the visitor in a game like this, how big?
Speaker 3: How big are the first like five minutes of maybe
Speaker 3: surviving that initial rush of energy and emotion.
Speaker 4: That's big because you know they're gonna come out pumped
Speaker 4: because they've been hearing about it. Nobody played in this
Speaker 4: game other than Dana, as you said, and so they're
Speaker 4: gonna feel this. They're gonna feel this energy. And if
Speaker 4: they can just withstand that first TV timeout, settle down,
Speaker 4: come back and run their stuff. Now, who knows since
Speaker 4: that it may come out to a big league. But
Speaker 4: if they do come out to a big league I
Speaker 4: hope they don't think it's over because whether guys have
Speaker 4: played in this or not, from Xavior, they know there's
Speaker 4: gonna be a run. It's some about this building. It's
Speaker 4: gonna be a run. It's gonna be a push this night.
Speaker 4: He can go up twenty and they just gonna make
Speaker 4: a push. Bearcats can be down ten and you know
Speaker 4: there's gonna be a push from the Bearcat. So just
Speaker 4: don't try to, you know, take the moment.
Speaker 5: Until the triple zeros in the second half.
Speaker 4: Don't think the game is over.
Speaker 3: I'm always uh I'm always curious and interested to see
Speaker 3: how freshmen specifically handle a game like this. Tell me
Speaker 3: about shot Abayev in terms of dealing with tonight in
Speaker 3: his makeup, Well, he's a big.
Speaker 4: Game player, and well as freshman, you just want consistency,
Speaker 4: and he's showing up in big games, and then you
Speaker 4: know he wants to show that he is the guy,
Speaker 4: and so he's gonna take tough shots and they're gonna
Speaker 4: look like bad shots when they miss. When they go in,
Speaker 4: you can be like unbelievable. And this guy has got
Speaker 4: every package you know, and those teams you love the
Speaker 4: shot selection when they go in, and you're scratch in
Speaker 4: your head when he misses. So if he can come
Speaker 4: out and you know, hit some shots, do what he's
Speaker 4: got to do early, it'll be great.
Speaker 3: Is there an aspect of this game, a matchup that
Speaker 3: fans should keep an eye on tonight that could dictate
Speaker 3: how this goes?
Speaker 1: In your mind?
Speaker 4: Yeah, if the Bearcats are defending the three, I mean
Speaker 4: this team is a three point shooting.
Speaker 2: They want to put them up.
Speaker 4: Ironically, the Bearcats will put up more threes and they're
Speaker 4: making more well, they're making about eleven Bearcats are making
Speaker 4: about nine and a half per game, and Javier's putting
Speaker 4: up some pretty good numbers as well. So you want
Speaker 4: to make sure you watch that how the Bearcats defend
Speaker 4: the three because I think the Bearcasts will rule the
Speaker 4: paint as far as shot blocking and rebounding around there.
Speaker 4: So what you want to watch out is are they
Speaker 4: filing on a three point line? Are they defending it
Speaker 4: without filing, and are they able to take those misses
Speaker 4: and turn them into points?
Speaker 3: Last question, great catching up with you, and as much
Speaker 3: as we've talked about all the differ for an aspect
Speaker 3: to this game, it always seems like there's somebody who
Speaker 3: turns into performance that nobody saw coming.
Speaker 1: It's exactly right.
Speaker 4: And I'm hoping this year for the Bearcat, I'm hoping
Speaker 4: that somebody like you know, Buck Harris, you know, get
Speaker 4: him like five steals and you know, get twelve to
Speaker 4: fifteen points in transition and attacking the basket, because he's
Speaker 4: a guy that's gonna constantly whether he thinks he can
Speaker 4: make it or not. He thinks he can get to
Speaker 4: the basket a lot. And if he can make his defense, know,
Speaker 4: maybe get us shoot the pass a lay and get
Speaker 4: a couple of steals. He sets the tone, so I
Speaker 4: wouldn't be surprised if there's a lineup change to start
Speaker 4: the game. I can't confirm anything, but if he's in
Speaker 4: the lineup and Chris is coming off the bench, Crease
Speaker 4: is coming off the bench, you.
Speaker 1: May see him.
Speaker 4: You almost have to keep him on a chain, so
Speaker 4: to speak, because he just he wants to go out
Speaker 4: there and take every ball, and you have to make
Speaker 4: sure you tell him to play nice discipline defense, still
Speaker 4: be strong and aggressive, but don't go out there just
Speaker 4: like a pit bull. And you put a piece of
Speaker 4: steak in front of him. But the chain that's not
Speaker 4: long for him to get it. He's gonna be going
Speaker 4: after it, after it, so he's gonna be pumped up.
Speaker 3: We were forty five minutes from broadcast, I mean, so
Speaker 3: prog deal me that I pad the best to Dan
Speaker 3: and moat broadcasting.

Speaker 3: Marty called it, along with Derek Dickey, it is fabulous.
Speaker 3: It was all a computer simulation that they turned into
Speaker 3: a broadcast and it aired here on seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 3: You're going to hear all of that well in podcast
Speaker 3: form a portion of it at six point fifty.
Speaker 1: It's ahead RNL Carrier Sports Talk.
Speaker 3: It is presented by Kelsey Chevrolet, and it's right here
Speaker 3: on seven hundred WLW. RS Asian Role and we gotta
Speaker 3: go coverage coming up top for the hour. My next
Speaker 3: guest the Saint X Guy, the former Musketeer co captain,
Speaker 3: longtime college basketball analysts.
Speaker 1: He's called a.
Speaker 3: Couple of Musketeer games earlier this season. Part of one
Speaker 3: of Cincinnati's greatest sports families.
Speaker 1: He is Steve Wolf. How are you.
Speaker 5: I'm doing great, Lance, just enjoying this eighty five degree weather,
Speaker 5: but missing out on the same XT game and the
Speaker 5: Xavier U See game and the Xavier Michigan volleyball game.
Speaker 5: So hey, it's what happened when you get.
Speaker 3: Old, no doubt, no doubt, great hair in your voice.
Speaker 3: Take me back in time. Let's go early eighties and
Speaker 3: take me into the huddle for a Bob Stack coach
Speaker 3: team in a game like this. What were the emotions
Speaker 3: for the Crosstown shootout in those Huddles.
Speaker 5: Well, you know, when I grew up, it wasn't that
Speaker 5: big of a deal. I mean, you know, it wasn't
Speaker 5: very well attended. Bob Stack and Ed Badger really took
Speaker 5: it to another level. So Stack was one of those
Speaker 5: guys that was emotional. He played the part. And I
Speaker 5: just remember the first the first game I was involved
Speaker 5: with in seventy nine, I think it was seventy nine.
Speaker 5: You know, we're up by nine points and there's like,
Speaker 5: you know, I don't know, fifty seconds left and Stack
Speaker 5: called a time out. We're winning, and he calls a
Speaker 5: time out and gets everybody close together and he goes,
Speaker 5: you know, whatever it was, you know, fifty nine seconds
Speaker 5: left and we own this city. And he said it
Speaker 5: really for language, a lot of f bombs and a
Speaker 5: lot of other but you know, it became one of
Speaker 5: those things because rivalries aren't rivalries unless both teams can win.
Speaker 5: And at that point in time, you see it once
Speaker 5: seven in a row, and so we finally broke that string.
Speaker 5: I think coach Stack was maybe two and two or
Speaker 5: in his career against U see. But those are the things.
Speaker 5: You have to win a couple of games to make
Speaker 5: it a rivalry, and back then, there were a lot
Speaker 5: of players from Cincinnati on both of the teams. You know,
Speaker 5: Bobby Austin was there, Doug Schlomer was in north of
Speaker 5: Kentuckian over there, and you know, and we had Gary
Speaker 5: Mass and we had Joe Shown, So we had a
Speaker 5: lot of guys on our team from Cincinnati. It's a
Speaker 5: little different this year. I mean, I think I know,
Speaker 5: in fact, they walked.
Speaker 3: It was going to be Yeah, my follow up was
Speaker 3: going to be, there's not a single Musketeer that's actually
Speaker 3: played in this game. If you were talking to him
Speaker 3: right now in the locker room, what would you tell
Speaker 3: them about this game?
Speaker 5: You know, I think you have to look at it
Speaker 5: like you're playing an NCAA tournament game. Uh And that's
Speaker 5: why the coaches really like to have it earlier in
Speaker 5: the season, because it does take a lot of emotion
Speaker 5: out of you. But I would say that this game
Speaker 5: is going to come down to defense, rebounding points in
Speaker 5: the paint, and uh. As Bob Stack would say, watching
Speaker 5: the earlier games for Xavier, the first couple of games
Speaker 5: and then watching some of the latter games, so you
Speaker 5: see it may be a battle of the unarmed opponents.
Speaker 5: I'm not sure what's going to happen, you know, because
Speaker 5: if Xavier shoots the ball the way they've been shooting,
Speaker 5: it could be, you know, a really big win for Xavier.
Speaker 5: By the same token. You see, he's got great players,
Speaker 5: uh and the only they only have one guy that's
Speaker 5: played in this crossdown shootout is from when I think
Speaker 5: it's day eight is the only one who's played in it.
Speaker 5: But you know, you expect unexpected in these games. You know,
Speaker 5: I remember Trayvon Blue had forty points, but you were
Speaker 5: the shoemaker and you see won that game. But you know,
Speaker 5: who would have thought Trayvon would have had forty points
Speaker 5: in a game like that that he did and that
Speaker 5: sort of propelled him to get better and better. You know,
Speaker 5: I think you have to look, you know, as our coaches,
Speaker 5: you just say, do the ordinary thing extraordinarily well, so
Speaker 5: you've got to be fundamentalness game, and you have to
Speaker 5: take the crowd out of it. You have to take
Speaker 5: your emotion out of it. And it's very hard for
Speaker 5: eighteen to twenty two or that's when I played, But
Speaker 5: now eighteen to twenty six year old guys, you know,
Speaker 5: how do you take the emotion out of it. But
Speaker 5: I still think it's probably one of the last bashions
Speaker 5: of college real college basketball, now that they have NIL
Speaker 5: and transfer portal, because everybody on both sides of the
Speaker 5: defence here understand how important this is. You know, to
Speaker 5: get a win. Now, it doesn't mean anything for the
Speaker 5: you know, for your your league, but it does mean
Speaker 5: you get bragging rights.
Speaker 3: You had Xavier earlier in the year. They have seemingly
Speaker 3: come a long way since the Santa Clara laws.
Speaker 1: What has helped lead that turnaround? In your mind?
Speaker 5: Well, I got to say, and not to be a homer.
Speaker 5: I try to do games where I'm not a homer.
Speaker 5: But I'm really impressed with Richard Patino. He's always sort
Speaker 5: of been in his own self, comfortable in his own shoes.
Speaker 5: I've done a lot of his games in the past before.
Speaker 5: He never really got upset. And I watched that. I'm like, man,
Speaker 5: I'd be really disgusted watching Marathon and Lemoine, but he wasn't.
Speaker 5: And he saw certain things and he knew that effort
Speaker 5: wasn't there. He needed to get guys to play effort.
Speaker 5: He also knew that he didn't have the right point
Speaker 5: guard situation. Roddy Anderson is a really good player, but
Speaker 5: he's a two guard, and they've done a good job
Speaker 5: of having Messina Moore and Alright to handle that point,
Speaker 5: and they take care of the ball. The Cina Moore
Speaker 5: has him been scoring great, but he's doing a yoma's
Speaker 5: job rebounding and facilitating. So I think that and you
Speaker 5: have to look at people talk about Santa Clara. They
Speaker 5: got a Hall of Fame coach there, an actual MENSIS member.
Speaker 5: He's so smart and he's such a good coach. And
Speaker 5: you know, they took down Steve Alfred Nevada like the
Speaker 5: next week, and then you see those Xavier guys started saying, well,
Speaker 5: maybe they weren't that bad, but even a dream team.
Speaker 5: They have thirteen new guys and Hall of famers and
Speaker 5: Hall of Fame coaches. But you know, the first couple
Speaker 5: of games they lost to college all stars. So you
Speaker 5: have to take it and put in perspective. I think
Speaker 5: that progress and development are way overlooked in these days now,
Speaker 5: but I think that's important. And they've gotten better and
Speaker 5: better every game.
Speaker 1: It is great here in your voice.
Speaker 3: I really appreciate you letting me bug you tonight on
Speaker 3: all nights of leading into the showdown. It was great
Speaker 3: to catch up with Teneil to start and add you
Speaker 3: to booke in with some Xavier conversation. Please extend my
Speaker 3: best to your family and then enjoy your weekend.
Speaker 5: All right, absolutely, and go Muskies and go Bombers.
Speaker 1: It's good. Thanks Steve.
Speaker 5: Thank what there you go?
Speaker 3: Steve Wolf, mister hoops, former Musketeer, long time broadcaster, did
Speaker 3: the Xavier games early on and has done games here
Speaker 3: on the back end even after retirement.
Speaker 1: He's in Boca. If you're wondering where it's where is
Speaker 1: he that?
Speaker 3: It's eighty five bocha these days, but love the stories
Speaker 3: of Bob Stacke. We're fifty nine seconds away from blankety
Speaker 3: blank owning this city. When we come back, we will
Speaker 3: flash back. It was put together by a computer simulation.
Speaker 3: It was then handed over to Marty Brenhaman and Derek Dickey.
Speaker 3: They did the rest. It aired here on seven hundred
Speaker 3: back in nineteen ninety five. You're gonna hear a portion
Speaker 3: of the Fantasy Crosstown Shootout as we continue RNL Carrier
Speaker 3: Sports Talk presented by Kelsey Chevrolet seven hundred WLW.
Speaker 1: Closing in on seven o'clock.
Speaker 3: That's pregame coverage time for you see and Zader in
Speaker 3: the Crossdown Shootout. By the way, I'm on Ex Atlantic, Bacalister.
Speaker 3: I would be honored if you followed, join in in
Speaker 3: the conversation, and we'll react during the game tonight. All right,
Speaker 3: This unfolded back in nineteen ninety five. It was called
Speaker 3: the Fantasy Crosstown Shootout. It was a computer simulation of
Speaker 3: a game between the all time best uc players and
Speaker 3: the all time best Xavier.
Speaker 1: Players at the time.
Speaker 3: It was called by Marty Brenneman and Derek Dickey, former
Speaker 3: Bearcat and an NBA player and TV analyst. We aired
Speaker 3: it on seven hundred WLW back in nineteen ninety five.
Speaker 3: The fictional site of the game was the Queen City Dome.
Speaker 1: This is a.
Speaker 3: Portion of that broadcast. We'll call it the appetizer of
Speaker 3: that broadcast. Your nineteen ninety five Fantasy Crosstown Shootout hit
Speaker 3: it Well, We're.
Speaker 6: Set to play basketball here at the Queen City Dome
Speaker 6: at downtown Cincinnati. The Bearcats, the Musketeers, Robertson Twielan Bam
Speaker 6: x Cilier in hope for U see Lark and Lee Pelkington,
Speaker 6: Tyrone Hill and Bob Whitt for the Xavier Musketeers. We
Speaker 6: talked about this brand spanking new facility that opens tonight,
Speaker 6: the Queens City doll with sixty six thousand and fifty
Speaker 6: people on hand for this fantasy Crosstown shootout. To give
Speaker 6: you a little bit about this brand new building at
Speaker 6: the corner of Fifth and L A one hundred and
Speaker 6: four skyboxes adoring this building. And as far as ticket
Speaker 6: prices for tonight's game, twenty seven fifty was the low
Speaker 6: end ticket. It goes all the way up to two
Speaker 6: hundred dollars for court side seats or you and.
Speaker 1: I have talked about this before, Marty.
Speaker 7: We've been waiting to find out exactly what would be
Speaker 7: the outcome of a game like this.
Speaker 1: It's something that people have.
Speaker 7: Talked about for years, and I think that once these
Speaker 7: players get on the court, all the nervousness, all the
Speaker 7: energy is going to be out there. I think guys
Speaker 7: are really going to get out and perform and play hard.
Speaker 6: Oscar kicks it outside the hope He's open shooting from
Speaker 6: fifteen no good.
Speaker 2: Robertson Yepsen signed to Timid D.
Speaker 1: A lot of people don't realize.
Speaker 7: Not only was Austar Robertson Cincinnati's all time leading score
Speaker 7: almost thirty four points a game, he's our all time
Speaker 7: leading rebounder fifteen rebounds a game.
Speaker 1: Bark and passes too quick.
Speaker 6: But the ball taken away by Oscar Robertson. Robertson quickly
Speaker 6: up to Van Xel right core court. It goes one
Speaker 6: on one with Ralph Lee.
Speaker 2: He shoots over Lee from twenty and got it.
Speaker 7: Nick Panex is a tremendous score, but I told you
Speaker 7: we're going to keep an eye on who takes better
Speaker 7: care of the ball. We have back to back turnovers.
Speaker 7: Cincinnati comes up with disadvantage.
Speaker 1: They drop off defensively.
Speaker 6: He puts it up from sixteen and was not even closed,
Speaker 6: but tyrone Hill.
Speaker 2: Rebounds it, slams it in.
Speaker 7: Tyrone Hill is known for his rebounding and just an
Speaker 7: excellent offensive rebounder, but always moving without the ball. You
Speaker 7: don't think of him as a scorer, but if you
Speaker 7: give him a chance, he's gonna put it in.
Speaker 6: Tied up by Ralph Lee at the timeline.
Speaker 2: Good defensive play.
Speaker 6: By Lee has he jumped there to get the tie
Speaker 6: up with Nick Van Exel and the UC that's not

Speaker 6: erupted off the UC bench, Ed Juckers trying to get.
Speaker 1: Him calmed down.
Speaker 6: He felt like Van Exel was mal but no foul call.
Speaker 6: Mike Sanzier made the call. It's a tie up and
Speaker 6: the arrow and the possession goes to Xavier. While we
Speaker 6: were away, Mike Sanzier walked over to the UC bench
Speaker 6: and apparently leveled a rather stern warning at admonishment at
Speaker 6: Bob Huggins. Huggins has been up and down all night
Speaker 6: long and he's not been happy with the officiating, which
Speaker 6: is a rule rather than the exception, and apparently issued
Speaker 6: a very stern warning the next time. And he's got
Speaker 6: a major problem. At the other end of the floor,
Speaker 6: Pete Gillan seemed to be enjoying every bit of that conversation.
Speaker 1: Oscar, in a hurry.
Speaker 6: Trying to get a breakaway, passes a timeline at Hicks,
Speaker 6: takes it away from behind. He slapped it away and
Speaker 6: picked it up. Hicks turns quick pass up court to Thomas.

Speaker 2: Hicks followed in its lam threw by.

Speaker 1: We got to keep an eye on these guys. Bringing
Speaker 1: it out of the back court.
Speaker 6: On the dribble, a quick pass to Byron Larkin on
Speaker 6: the right side. He elects to pull the trigger. Come
Speaker 6: twenty feet and the guy hope. Byron Larkin is doing
Speaker 6: a great job. He's letting it be known that he
Speaker 6: is not going to be denied a shot if he
Speaker 6: wants it. We noticed during the time out Jerry Springer
Speaker 6: and Ricky Lake have journeyed into Cincinnati for this Titanic
Speaker 6: struggle tonight, and also an interesting foursome on the far side.
Speaker 6: We mentioned earlier about Joe Knutxall and Madonna in that
Speaker 6: animated first half conversation. They've now been joined by Bob
Speaker 6: Trumpy and Jerry Fallwell, boy, would you like to.

Speaker 6: He controls the ball, brings a front court to Dickie
Speaker 6: quickly to the bottom left.
Speaker 2: Corner jump shot. Got it.
Speaker 1: That's what the Bear kessany.
