Who new history class could 3 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:12,080 Speaker 1: get this violent? Speaking of the patriots, I wonder how 4 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: I would look in a powder dweke.

Bengals game Plan is on at 25 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 2: six featuring starring Dan Horde and Dave Lapham. We got 26 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 2: some college basketball stuff. A little bit later on, I 27 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 2: gotta we gotta spend some time on Mark Pope, who's 28 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,559 Speaker 2: looked and sounded like last night like he was having 29 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,119 Speaker 2: like an existential crisis. Xavier wins Rick Brooring's gonna talk 30 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 2: about the Musketeers and the Norse coming up at three 31 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: forty five Wes Miller. A little bit later on in 32 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 2: the show, John Cunningham's gonna talk about big noon kickoff 33 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 2: coming to UC's campus in the four o'clock hour. As 34 00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:00,040 Speaker 2: I said, we are loaded today, we are loaded to 35 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 2: I am not loaded, at least not yet. We got 36 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 2: to spend some time on what's happening at quarterback with 37 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 2: the Bengals right now, because I think it's completely fair 38 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 2: to ask if Joe Burrow is going to play in 39 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,839 Speaker 2: games this year, and Joe Burrow is practicing, and Joe 40 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:18,519 Speaker 2: Flacco today is not not because he's old, but because 41 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 2: he's dealing with pain, he's got a sprained ac joint. 42 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 2: Shouldn't they just have Joe Burrow play on Sunday against 43 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 2: the Patriots. I think it's a legitimate question. Maybe we'll 44 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 2: ask it to Richard Skinner in the five o'clock hour. 45 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 2: It's been interesting since Sunday a lot of people have 46 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 2: looked at how the Bengals played against the Steelers, and 47 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 2: they've talked about players quitting and not caring. We have 48 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 2: Paul Danner Junior on the show every Tuesday. He covers 49 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 2: the team. He's in the locker room. He's as well 50 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 2: sourced as anybody. He's also not very hot taky, and 51 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 2: he talked about the lack of want to that the 52 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 2: lack of care among members of the Bengals defense on 53 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 2: Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers. That game took place against 54 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,799 Speaker 2: the backdrop of a lot of folks wondering should the 55 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 2: Bengals move on from Zach Taylor, Should the Bengals move 56 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 2: on from Duke Tobin, Should the Bengals move on from everybody? 57 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 2: Should they start over? Should they clean house? Now? The 58 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 2: one thing that I think you've always been able to 59 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 2: say about Zach Taylor. Positive thing you could say about 60 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 2: Zach Taylor is his teams, for the most part, have 61 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 2: always played for him. Like the first two years were miserable. Man, 62 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 2: that first season was dreadful. They won two games, and 63 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 2: still I thought during that year it didn't feel like 64 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:49,720 Speaker 2: he lost the collective. Maybe he lost individuals. Carlos Dunlap 65 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 2: didn't want to be a part of it. But you 66 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 2: didn't watch that team that season and thought Dave Quick 67 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 2: twenty twenty, the COVID year, Burrows rookie year. That team 68 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 2: won football game games late in the season with Ryan 69 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 2: Finley and Brandon Allen playing quarterback. And so as much 70 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 2: as we focus on play calling and the structure of 71 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 2: the offense and who's doing what on the coaching staff, 72 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 2: the one thing I think you've always been able to 73 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 2: say about Zach Taylor is his teams have played for him. 74 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:31,919 Speaker 2: They haven't quit, nobody's efforts been compromised until now. This 75 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 2: this is what it feels like, and this is what 76 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 2: it looks like. I think, and you can tell me 77 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 2: if you disagree, but I think this is what it 78 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 2: sounds like, and this is what it looks like when 79 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 2: a coach is starting to lose his team that game 80 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 2: against the Steelers, I don't care what you want to 81 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 2: say about the Bengals schematics against Pittsburgh. They had guys 82 00:04:55,360 --> 00:05:00,159 Speaker 2: on defense, plural guys who looked like and acted like 83 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 2: they did not want to play football. And look, man, 84 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 2: the Steelers have like a three hundred and eighty pound 85 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 2: tight end I'm exaggerating here in Darnell Washington, who looks like, 86 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 2: you know, just an overgrown sixth grader playing against you know, 87 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 2: guys and classmates who are just woefully undersized. That's what 88 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 2: it looked like to You're a professional football player. You 89 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 2: got to figure out a way to get the guy 90 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 2: on the ground. Dudes who, as we say these days, 91 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 2: were making business decisions, but players who look like they 92 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 2: didn't want to be out there. This is the antithesis 93 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 2: of what we've come to know about Zach Taylor's teams 94 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 2: over his first six seasons. Like you had guys, and 95 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 2: you can make this more about the individual players T 96 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 2: Higgins two years ago. To me, this is one of 97 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 2: the reasons why t Higgins has a beloved Cincinnati Bengal. 98 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 2: That guy on New Year's Eve two years ago against 99 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 2: the Kansas City Chiefs, had a messed up hamstring, and 100 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,679 Speaker 2: he was still, even without his coaches knowing, was willing 101 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 2: himself onto the field the game against the Miami Dolphins 102 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 2: in twenty nineteen that we all wanted them to lose. 103 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 2: They had players who are not going to be a 104 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 2: part of the rebuild, who the Bengals were looking to replace, 105 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 2: who were doing everything they could to win the football 106 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 2: game that day and spoil our Sunday because we wanted 107 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 2: them to lose so they could take Joe Burrow. Zach's 108 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 2: teams have always played hard. Now, you might, as I 109 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 2: believe you, think that should be just an inherent part 110 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,679 Speaker 2: of being a professional athlete. But at the very least 111 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 2: you could always say Zach's teams the efforts not been compromised. 112 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 2: You cannot say that now. And so I'm less interested 113 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 2: in what has happened over the first six years of 114 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 2: Zach's time in Cincinnati, and I'm more interested in what 115 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 2: happens now because, legitimately, for the first time since he 116 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 2: became the head coach of the Bengals, you got folks wondering, 117 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 2: are guys starting to quit? By the way, I keep 118 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 2: saying This is not Week sixteen. There's not mercifully one 119 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 2: game to go and it's all right, get through this 120 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 2: week and then pack your bags and everybody move on. 121 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 2: They have seven games remaining, but just under half of 122 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 2: the season is still in front of this football team. 123 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 2: So Number one, how much worse is this gonna get? 124 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 2: Just in terms of effort. I'm not even talking about 125 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 2: on the scoreboard or in the standings, how many more 126 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 2: games they're gonna lose, just in terms of effort, Because 127 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 2: on Sunday against a quote hated rival, with coming off 128 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 2: of bye, with the rest of the season still in 129 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 2: front of them, with the carrot being dangled of Burrow 130 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 2: coming back a winnable division, if you could just win 131 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 2: this game and maybe win the next one, Joe's gonna 132 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 2: come back and game on. Here we go with all 133 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 2: of that in play, with that game on Sunday not 134 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 2: getting out of hand until the very very end, you 135 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 2: had dudes who look like they quit Geno Stone Unfortunately 136 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 2: for Gino looks like he should be at the top 137 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 2: of that list. There are others. Go and watch the tape. 138 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 2: It doesn't lie. So number one, how much worse is 139 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 2: this gonna get? How much worse is this gonna get 140 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 2: as the games take on less meaning, how much worse 141 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 2: is this gonna get the further they get away from 142 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 2: true Contention Number two, what is that gonna say about 143 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 2: the head coach? 144 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 3: To me? 145 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 2: In the NFL, I'm less interested in play calling or 146 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 2: that stuff. It matters, not gonna say it doesn't. As 147 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 2: a head coach, do you keep the locker room together? 148 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 2: Do you keep the team together? Do you have guys 149 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 2: who are bailing early? I don't know what it's like 150 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 2: behind closed. I do think it's completely understandable to assume 151 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 2: that there's gonna be some sort of fracture between an 152 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 2: offense that it's done its best in a defense that 153 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 2: is literally the worst in the history of the sport. Like, Invariably, 154 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 2: there's gonna be fractures. Invariably, there's gonna be finger pointing, 155 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 2: even if guys publicly are saying the right thing. But 156 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 2: more than anything, when we watch this team, do we 157 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 2: see a team that's quit. When you see a team 158 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 2: that's quit, they've quit on their coach. When you see 159 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 2: a team that's quit on its coach, you can't tell 160 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 2: me then about the great culture or you know, no 161 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 2: matter what, these guys have Zach's back, you can't. When 162 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 2: you can't do those things, then it's really time to 163 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 2: talk about who should be next. So by the end 164 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 2: of the season, who knows, man, maybe what happened against 165 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 2: Pittsburgh ends up being enough of an outlier that you go, huh, 166 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 2: Zach at least kept the team together, and the team 167 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 2: in those final few games did not quit. But this 168 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 2: is not trending in the right It's not trending in 169 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,079 Speaker 2: the right direction for the Bengals. It's not training in 170 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 2: the right direction for you and I if you care 171 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 2: about the Bengals, and it's it's not trending in the 172 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 2: right direction for a coach who I don't know how 173 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 2: hot his seat is. I know how hot A lot 174 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 2: of people want his seat to be. Well, it gets 175 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 2: only hotter if the effort continues to look like it 176 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 2: did on Sunday, Because what it looked like on Sunday 177 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 2: is a team that has quit. And when an NFL 178 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 2: team has quit, players have quit on themselves, they've quit 179 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 2: on their teammates, but they've also quit on their head coach. 180 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 2: And if you're a head coach and your team has 181 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 2: quit on you, well, then it's really hard to justify 182 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 2: bringing you back, especially when you're a franchise at the 183 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 2: crossroads that the Bengals are going to be at this 184 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 2: coming offseason. Your thoughts are welcome. We do have a 185 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 2: few minutes before our first guest five wint three seven 186 00:10:56,400 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 2: four nine fifteen thirty and eight six sixty seven two 187 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 2: three seven seven six. I do not know if Mark 188 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 2: Pope's team quit on it or quit on him last 189 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 2: night at Madison Square Garden. I do know what he 190 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,959 Speaker 2: looked and sounded like after the game. I'm gonna stick 191 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 2: up for Mark Pope because I know who preceded him, 192 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,960 Speaker 2: and I know what it would have sounded like after 193 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 2: last night's game had Kentucky played the way it did 194 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 2: against Michigan State at Madison Square Garden. Rick Brooring on 195 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 2: the Musketeers and the Norse Nku plays on the road tomorrow. 196 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 2: Xavier beat a bad Old Dominion team last night, but 197 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 2: look pretty good doing so.

In about ten minutes, we'll 224 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 2: get to a Trey Hendrickson sports hernie and we'll spend 225 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:22,559 Speaker 2: a few minutes on Mark Pope and what happened with 226 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 2: his team last night at Madison Square Garden, which I thought, 227 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 2: frankly was a lot more about Michigan State than it 228 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 2: was Kentucky. But if you watch the game last night, 229 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 2: Chris Budden, the ESPN reporter, talked about players screaming at 230 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 2: each other, which I'm not sure is I don't know 231 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 2: that much of an exception, but that does this stage 232 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 2: in the season, this early in the season, feel and 233 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 2: seem like a broken unit. And there's lots of time 234 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 2: to get that fixed. There's lots of talent around which 235 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 2: they can fix it. But it was sobering if you're 236 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 2: a Kentucky fan to listen to and watch Mark Pope 237 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 2: before the game, during the game, and certainly after the 238 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 2: game last night. There you go five point three seven nine, 239 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 2: fifteen thirty. Uh, let's see, Ian, you're on ESPN fifteen thirty. 240 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 5: Ian, how are you, dude, I'm good. I'm good. 241 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 4: I think I've got past my depression from Cincinnati Sports 242 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 4: because you know, if I'm going to live life like that, 243 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 4: that's that's I feel like I'm just a loser if 244 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 4: I'm going. 245 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 5: To do that. 246 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 2: You cannot let a sports team dictate your happiness. It 247 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 2: has taken me a long, long long time to get there, Ian, 248 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 2: but you cannot let a sports team dictate how happy 249 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 2: you are on a daily basis. 250 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, agreed. 251 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 4: And so I've come to the conclusion that to try 252 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 4: to be positive. You know, maybe this darkness and this twist, 253 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 4: this tornado of drama and misfortune and everything we talked 254 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 4: about in February that we saw coming from ten miles 255 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 4: away happened exactly as it did. Uh but you know, 256 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 4: maybe this is like a blessing in disguise, hopefully, you know, 257 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 4: because maybe it forces the hand, like similar to all 258 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 4: the fans not showing up for long enough on either 259 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 4: sports team, and all of a sudden they go get 260 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 4: a big bat or you know, a knockout defensive player, 261 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 4: because that's what seems to move the needle for these teams. 262 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 4: And uh so that's just what I'm hoping man that 263 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 4: that there's not a total rebuild, but it's it's just 264 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 4: a force of uh, you know, making moves that are 265 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 4: obvious that they should have done, like the whole disguise. 266 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 4: I'm sure we'll pay Jamar and Key, but we're just 267 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 4: gonna ignore the I mean, it's so ridiculous that we're 268 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 4: all not fools. 269 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 7: You know. 270 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 2: Well, there's there's there's sure we're gonna pay Jamar and 271 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 2: t and there's going ahead in paying them before the 272 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 2: market changed. Like, I don't have any issue in paying 273 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 2: either guy. It cost them more than it needed to 274 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 2: because of how long they waited. And then, by Katie 275 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 2: Blackburn's own admission, they were so preoccupied and I'm frankly 276 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 2: not even sure why this was the case, but they're 277 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 2: so preoccupied in getting the Higgins and Chase deals done 278 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 2: that again, by her own admission, they didn't have enough 279 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 2: time and resources to devote to the rest of the team. 280 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 2: You can keep those players, You could pay those players, 281 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 2: but do it in a way that it doesn't cost 282 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 2: you more than it has to. But you mentioned something 283 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 2: that I think is at the root of the frustration 284 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 2: for most of us. The word obvious. It was obvious 285 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 2: watching last year's defense. They needed to do more and 286 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 2: they didn't. And so the real frustrating thing for me 287 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 2: is people who ignored the obvious, like Duke Tobin, are 288 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 2: very likely to be asked to fix what is again 289 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 2: an obvious problem again, and I'm not sure any of 290 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 2: us trust him or them in as the organization to 291 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 2: do that. 292 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, the only thing that I can say is that 293 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 4: having Burrow maybe helps put the pressure in the right direction. 294 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 8: Because how many seasons that this. 295 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 4: Is literally two now in a row, are we really 296 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,959 Speaker 4: going to see that? But then there's the deficit of 297 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 4: the wholeso deep, How the hell are you going to 298 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 4: get you know, eight to ten key players that you need. 299 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 6: Maybe it's less because. 300 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 4: Three of them are making the other six look bad, 301 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 4: and maybe they're not that bad. 302 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 8: You know what I mean? 303 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 4: They should have kept Jesse Bates, dude, I mean, it's 304 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,880 Speaker 4: so ridiculous, Like it goes on and on and on. 305 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 2: Right, One of their biggest issues is the inability to 306 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,720 Speaker 2: replace players that they decide to move on from. You're 307 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 2: going to have good players get away, either they just 308 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 2: can't wait to leave, or you make a decision We're 309 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,959 Speaker 2: not going to winest in this position, or maybe we 310 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,919 Speaker 2: think this guy's best football is behind him. But this 311 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 2: has been a chronic issue now for a decade. You 312 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,959 Speaker 2: say goodbye to Jesse Bates. Okay, your plan to replace 313 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 2: him was Dax Hill. Now Dax Hill plays corner. Okay, 314 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 2: what's your plan that it's safety and it hasn't worked, 315 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,639 Speaker 2: and so yeah, it's very easy to say, and I 316 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,919 Speaker 2: agree with you. They should have kept Jesse Bates, but 317 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:25,919 Speaker 2: they have to at some point if they're ever going 318 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,159 Speaker 2: to enjoy sustained success, whether it's with Joe Burrow at 319 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 2: quarterback or decades down the road, They're gonna have to 320 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 2: get good at replacing good players who leave because the 321 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 2: nature of the business dictates you're not going to keep 322 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,560 Speaker 2: all of them. And they have been woeful in that regard. 323 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 2: There have been players that they forever have not been 324 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 2: able to replace. Jesse Bates is at the top of 325 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 2: that list. Andrew Whitworth. I mean, we are just now 326 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 2: wondering if they are set for the long term at 327 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,880 Speaker 2: one of the tackle spots. They spent years not being 328 00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,440 Speaker 2: able to replace Andrew Whitworth. They tried, they tried before 329 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:04,680 Speaker 2: he left. They drafted Cedric Obwayhi. The plan there did 330 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 2: not work. They are gonna have to get good at 331 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 2: some point at replacing good players when they leave. They've 332 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 2: tried to replace Trey Hendrickson, Miles Murphy was supposed to 333 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 2: on some level replace Trey Hendrickson. That hasn't worked, and 334 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,439 Speaker 2: so then you're stuck bringing back Trey Hendrickson and this 335 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,880 Speaker 2: year for him has turned out to not work so well. 336 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,640 Speaker 2: They've got to get good at replacing players who leave. 337 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:31,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll end with this, man, because I know you're 338 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 4: a busy guy, but I think that they really need 339 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 4: to look at the analytics, these the patterns, swallow some 340 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 4: pride and make some adjustments on the freaking scouting. I 341 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 4: think it is a core the problem along with their stubbornness, 342 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 4: you know what I mean, like grow change everyone should, 343 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 4: including ownership and GM de facto man, you know. 344 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 2: We might call him that and nice to hear from you, 345 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 2: GM to facto man, evolve like this is we can. 346 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 2: We can talk till we're blue in the face about 347 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 2: how they should not have let Jesse Bates go, nor 348 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 2: your plans to replace players need to work. Like if 349 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 2: if the plan to replace Jesse Bates worked, we wouldn't 350 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 2: be talking about him anymore. Hasn't And if that was 351 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 2: an isolated thing, you'd be able to move past it. 352 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 2: But their m O, this is not the first time 353 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 2: we've talked about this. Their mo O for a while 354 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 2: has been good players leave, we can't figure out how 355 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 2: to replace him, and that is mainly going to start 356 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 2: in the draft.

Joining us this week is doctor Trevor 396 00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 2: Wilkes from Orthos Sincy. Let's talk about Trey Hendrickson. So 397 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 2: we're rating sports hernia that is maybe going to require 398 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 2: surgery at the end of this season. They haven't put 399 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 2: them on ir they're I guess holding out hope that 400 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,679 Speaker 2: he's going to be able to play. This was originally 401 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,760 Speaker 2: a back issue, then we saw a hip and now 402 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 2: sports hernia. Let's start with that. What is a sports hernia? 403 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, great question, Melan, Thanks for having me. So 404 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 11: sports hernias have been something that's been in the news, 405 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 11: kind of rising in kind of acknowledgment over the last 406 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 11: fifteen twenty years. So what it really is is the 407 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 11: group of muscles that represent your abdominal, oblique, and core 408 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,200 Speaker 11: muscles as well as your groin muscles attached to the 409 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 11: pubic bone of your pelvis. And where those muscles attach 410 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:48,199 Speaker 11: the you can develop cares of the tendons, so the 411 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 11: soft tissue attachment to the bone. And that's what actually 412 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 11: differentiates a sports hernia from like a regular hernia that 413 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 11: people have heard about. 414 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 5: With their regular doctor. 415 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 11: That you see sports tourney is primarily with explosive athletes 416 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 11: that do pivot kind of twisting sports, so hockey, power hitters, soccer, 417 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 11: and and football kind. 418 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 5: Of the classics. 419 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 2: How was something like this diagnosed because the injury was 420 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 2: first reported as a back issue and now it's a 421 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 2: hip injury. 422 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:21,199 Speaker 11: Yeah, so that gets to the rub of why I 423 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,199 Speaker 11: think it's been rising in people looking for it. But 424 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 11: it's really what we call medicine often a diagnosis of exclusion, 425 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,120 Speaker 11: meaning you've got to make sure it's not other things. 426 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 5: First. 427 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,679 Speaker 11: There's really no definitive test that tells you it's a 428 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 11: sports turney, which is one of the hard things, but 429 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 11: so generally a constellation of symptoms. So where the athlete's 430 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 11: complaint of you often do some plain X rays make 431 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 11: sure there's not a bone issue. MRI can definitely show 432 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 11: some inflammation in the area, but it's really a diagnosis 433 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 11: of making sure it's not other things first and then 434 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 11: coming to this diagnosis. 435 00:24:56,280 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 2: So reading that surgery in the off season is a possibility. 436 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 2: So what determines whether or not surgery is going to 437 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 2: be needed. 438 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 11: Yes, essentially the failure of non surgical care. So typically 439 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 11: we'll begin athletes with a short period of rest, just 440 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 11: like you would another soft tissue injury. It can vary 441 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,199 Speaker 11: by severity, you know, four to six weeks. But if 442 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 11: an athlete proves that they cannot come back to their exclusive, 443 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:28,680 Speaker 11: their explosive sports afterwards, then surgery is often indicated. The 444 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 11: surgery is something that's been kind of developed and enhanced 445 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,679 Speaker 11: and gotten better in the last ten fifteen years. Recent 446 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,639 Speaker 11: studies have found about a ninety percent success of return 447 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 11: into sports after this surgery. 448 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 2: So, but he could still perhaps play through something like 449 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 2: this despite kneeding surgery down the road. 450 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,360 Speaker 11: Yeah, that that is a tough question. And then there 451 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 11: you get to one of the man one of the 452 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 11: really difficult issues sometimes with with where an athlete is 453 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 11: in a contract with where with where a. 454 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:00,640 Speaker 5: Team is the season. 455 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 11: I think if an if an athlete feels like they 456 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 11: can perform at a at a high level, that helps 457 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 11: the team and their pain level is acceptable. 458 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, you're it's right. 459 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 11: Most sometimes you can play with it and have and 460 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,400 Speaker 11: then have surgery in the off season. You've actually seen 461 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 11: that with several hockey players recently. Now, you do have 462 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,400 Speaker 11: to be careful if you let a sports hernay get 463 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 11: too bad and that soft tissue injury gets too severe, 464 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 11: then it can lead to a complete hernia and a 465 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 11: more compar like a more involved surgery. So there is 466 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 11: a bit of a line that he'd be working with 467 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 11: the sports medicine team. 468 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 2: Let's just say, for example, he has what we'll call 469 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,959 Speaker 2: typical sports hernia surgery as soon as the off season 470 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 2: gets here, which frankly feels like it's going to get 471 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:47,440 Speaker 2: here sooner rather than later. How would that impact the 472 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,919 Speaker 2: next season or is off season training that sort of stuff? 473 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 11: Yeah, so's it's a three month recovery process. Of course, 474 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 11: that a lot of that's gonna happen in the off season, 475 00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 11: and then he would have kind of a hardening conditioning period. 476 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 11: But again, it's a reasonably good ninety percent success and 477 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 11: back to play. So that's that's reasonably favorable for him. 478 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,199 Speaker 2: Let's talk about Cam Taylor britt So, he came out 479 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,679 Speaker 2: of the game against Pittsburgh with a foot injury. He 480 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 2: was in a boot in the locker room on Monday 481 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 2: using a scooter surgery, likely for what is being called 482 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 2: a Liz Frank injury. I've heard this term before, but 483 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 2: I'm not sure I know what it is. What is 484 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:24,880 Speaker 2: a Liz Frank injury? 485 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 5: Yeah, so that's unfortunate. 486 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 12: One. 487 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:31,479 Speaker 11: Liz Frank injuries are a really difficult injury to the 488 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 11: ligaments that hold the bones in the middle of your foot. 489 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 11: So if you think about your foot and you think 490 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,919 Speaker 11: about the arch of your foot, there there's a constellation 491 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 11: of little bones in there called the qneiforms, and they 492 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:46,640 Speaker 11: help your foot kind of move and bend and twist 493 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 11: and do all the things that your foot can do 494 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 11: to accommodate to the ground. And when you tear those 495 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 11: ligaments that join those bones together, it's just a really 496 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:59,119 Speaker 11: bad injury. You just get athletes put so much stress 497 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 11: on their foot. Kind of notorious for giving people persistent problems. 498 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 2: What is the timeline the likely timeline we're we're looking 499 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 2: at here from surgery to him being able to be 500 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 2: back on the field again. 501 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:11,399 Speaker 12: Yeah. 502 00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 11: So, like like a lot of these injuries, they occur 503 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,640 Speaker 11: on a spectrum. Basically, if the care is bad enough 504 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 11: and the bones aren't lined up perfectly, surgeries indicated not 505 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 11: generally speaking, the surgery requires six weeks of not walking 506 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 11: on the foot, so boot and scooter, six weeks of 507 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:34,399 Speaker 11: kind of gradually introducing weight, and then three months is 508 00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 11: kind of rehab. So overall it's it's generally considered to 509 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 11: be six months for full sports clearance. So yeah, and 510 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 11: even then you see ten to fifteen percent of guys 511 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 11: have some persistent pain in the arch of their foot, 512 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 11: so it's it's a tough one for for Cam. 513 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 12: Unfortunately. 514 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 2: All right, one more Cam sample defensive end. He has 515 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 2: an oblique strain. And these injuries to me always sound 516 00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 2: more benign then they end up being. So walk me 517 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 2: through the different grades and then what each one of 518 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 2: them may suggest in terms of the timeline for Cam. 519 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 12: Yeah. 520 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 11: Yeah, So the oblique muscles like these are the core 521 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 11: muscles along the side of your six pack, help you 522 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 11: to twist and stabilize your core. The plastic muscle grading 523 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 11: system that everybody knows is one to three. So one 524 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 11: is better, three is worse, three is usually you got 525 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 11: more bruising, maybe even a deficit in the muscle. Now, actually, 526 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 11: really interesting data moen these injuries from Major League Baseball. 527 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 11: They track the injuries really close. They found that for 528 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 11: grade ones, generally for hitters, it's about three weeks for 529 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 11: return to play. So if we kind of extrapolate from 530 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 11: some of that for a low grade injury, you're looking 531 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 11: at three weeks for a higher grade injury up to six. 532 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 5: Wow. 533 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:56,680 Speaker 2: You know it feels like we talk about this with 534 00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 2: baseball players all the time. Does this sort of injury 535 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 2: for a higher contact sport complicate things? 536 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 11: Yeah, I think, I mean, I think it does. Yeah, 537 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:06,880 Speaker 11: I mean I I just give a little bit of 538 00:30:06,920 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 11: research for this. The best data I found was from baseball. 539 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 11: But yeah, football adds the whole other level of contact, 540 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 11: as you said, and getting hit there and the constant, 541 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 11: uh you know, potential to reinjure that muscle. 542 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 5: So and I do think it's a little harder. 543 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, certainly seems like a tremendous insight. As always, Doctor 544 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 2: Trevor Wilkes from Orthos Sincy. We appreciate the time we will.

John Cunningham 572 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 2: be director of Athletics at you see is gonna talk 573 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 2: Big noon Kickoff with us coming up in just about 574 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 2: fifteen minutes Wes Miller in the five o'clock hour, as 575 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 2: the Bearcats gets set to take on Louisville Downtown on 576 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 2: Friday nights, Do I saw Rick Buring's name on the screen, 577 00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 2: Then it popped off, will okay? Is Rick not with us? 578 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 2: Rick is en route? I saw Rick last night. I 579 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 2: went to the Xavier game. I saw the Musketeers make 580 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 2: a bunch of threes against Old Dominion, and we talked 581 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 2: about how Rick would be joining us on his way 582 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 2: to Mount Pleasant, Michigan to call the NKU Central Michigan 583 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 2: game tomorrow night. 584 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 1: You have a bad signal. 585 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 2: Could be a bad signal. Maybe in the middle of nowhere, 586 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 2: maybe he just simply doesn't want to talk to me, 587 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 2: And could you blame him for that? I think the 588 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 2: answer is absolutely not. I don't know that last night's 589 00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 2: performance will make anybody feel any better about the current 590 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:04,960 Speaker 2: trajectory of Xavier's basketball season. They have an MTE this 591 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,720 Speaker 2: weekend in Charleston where they're gonna play Georgia on Friday 592 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 2: and then either Clemson or West Virginia on Sunday. But 593 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 2: they you could tell that there was a concerted effort 594 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 2: to rebound the ball better, which has been an issue. 595 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 2: They obviously made seventeen threes. They were great from outside. 596 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 2: That is not a very good Old Dominion team. What 597 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 2: has been uncanny, I think over the first five games, 598 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 2: including last night, and including in the two games they won, 599 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 2: specifically the Maris game, is how poor they've been shooting twos, 600 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 2: including being right at the rim. Like if you go 601 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 2: back to the first game of the season they played Marist, 602 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 2: I felt like they paraded to the rim pretty well, 603 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 2: they just couldn't finish. I think they had three miss 604 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 2: dunks last night. So we'll see, you know, they when 605 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 2: they lost the way they to Santa Clara, Folks who 606 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 2: thought they're gonna be lucky to win like four games 607 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 2: in the Big East. I haven't seen the bottom feeding 608 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 2: teams in the Big East quite yet. It's gonna be 609 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 2: fun to watch Connecticut play Arizona tonight. By the way, 610 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 2: I think there's gonna be a better gauge and look, 611 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 2: nobody expects them to be a tournament team. Frankly, the 612 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:25,280 Speaker 2: concept seems laughable when you just got beaten by Santa 613 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 2: Clair in a game that you trailed by thirty four 614 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 2: at one point. They were competitive ish for twelve to 615 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 2: fifteen minutes against Iowa on Friday night. But teams do 616 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:43,839 Speaker 2: get better, teams do coalesce. I'm not sure that they're 617 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 2: gonna coalesce enough to be as relevant as Musketeer fans 618 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:50,280 Speaker 2: want them to be, but perhaps they took a step 619 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 2: last night. We will see NKU and Central Michigan tomorrow 620 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 2: from Mount Pleasant, Michigan on ESPN fifteen thirty. Rick and 621 00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 2: Jim Kelch will have that call. Even if Rick I 622 00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:07,360 Speaker 2: promise you he didn't forget, I'm gonna guess there're somewhere 623 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 2: middle of Michigan. Bad cell service or maybe he and 624 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,319 Speaker 2: Jim are just having such a good time with each 625 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 2: other that they don't want a phone call for me 626 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 2: to to interrupt. Uh, we could we could take Mike's call. 627 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:25,319 Speaker 2: Maybe Michael talks Savior basketball with us. Mike, you can 628 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 2: fill in for Rick Boring. How are you? 629 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 13: Oh no, can you hear me? 630 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 5: Yeah? 631 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 2: Can you take me off the speaker phone please? 632 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 12: Yeah? 633 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah, Well kind of the craft procedure thing I'm 634 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,520 Speaker 14: going through. Okay, good to hear your voice. Sounds like 635 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 14: you're doing well. Hope the family's good. 636 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,800 Speaker 2: Mike. I am doing I am doing wonderful. My life 637 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:50,759 Speaker 2: is great. I'm more concerned about you. 638 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 14: Well, I'm doing the best I can. Oh, that's all 639 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 14: I can do. How it's gonna end up? So okay, 640 00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:03,560 Speaker 14: it's a wrecking situation. But anyway, a couple of things 641 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 14: I wanted to mention Kenny Anderson prior to my basketball tirade. 642 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:13,600 Speaker 14: I'm praying so hard for Kenny to get in that hole. 643 00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:16,400 Speaker 14: I don't know, were you old enough to get to 644 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 14: watch him play at the time, well. 645 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:22,319 Speaker 2: Not in his prime, no, at the very very end, yes, 646 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 2: but not when he was at his peak in uh 647 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,399 Speaker 2: In you know, I mean the best year he had 648 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 2: was eighty one when he was MVP, but he was 649 00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 2: awesome in the seventies. Much of that but well before 650 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 2: my time. 651 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 14: And it was funny because I mean anybody would would agree. 652 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 14: Initially it was Augusttanic College. What the hell are you. 653 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 2: Talking about in the middle of Illinois, I. 654 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 14: Mean, just nowhere though, and look look what turned out. 655 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 14: But I just think the greatest thing, Well, the guy 656 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:59,840 Speaker 14: was just just so poised and accurate with his throws 657 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 14: and such a great leader. But the guy is just 658 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 14: such a wonderful human being. I mean, all the I 659 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 14: think he does to help other people. I just think 660 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,840 Speaker 14: he deserves all the kudos that Cincinnati could ever give anybody. 661 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,320 Speaker 2: You'll get no argument for me or I think anybody 662 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 2: else listening to this conversation. What what he has done 663 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,920 Speaker 2: in his post playing and coaching career with the Ken 664 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:26,359 Speaker 2: Anderson alliance has been uh, has been awesome. It's been 665 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 2: awesome to watch. You will find no bigger proponent of 666 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:33,759 Speaker 2: Ken Anderson's Hall of Fame case than me. You know, 667 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 2: to me when Ken Stabler got in, because I thought 668 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 2: if you looked at those two side by side, they 669 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 2: were they were pretty similar. Ken Stabler gets in the 670 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:44,920 Speaker 2: Hall of Fame. Number one he won a Super Bowl. 671 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 2: Number two, we had an awesome nickname. And number three 672 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,280 Speaker 2: he played for a team that was a national brand. 673 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 2: You can't say those things necessarily about Ken Anderson. But 674 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 2: it's interesting, and this is this is a very unscientific 675 00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:57,200 Speaker 2: way of looking at it. If you look at Pro 676 00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:01,239 Speaker 2: Football References Hall of Fame, they call it a Hall 677 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:04,000 Speaker 2: of Fame comparison to him, players whose career was of 678 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 2: similar quality and shape. Among the players listed on Ken 679 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 2: Anderson's page, Dan Fouts Hall of Famer, Joe Montana Hall 680 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:17,759 Speaker 2: of Famer, and we're talking about stats, Terry Bradshaw Hall 681 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:22,759 Speaker 2: of Famer, Bob Greasy Hall of Famer, Warren Moon Hall 682 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 2: of Famer. Now you might say, well, wait a minute. 683 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:28,840 Speaker 2: You know Montana and Bradshaw combined to win eight titles. 684 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 2: Sure Moon doesn't have any. Dan Fouts doesn't have any, 685 00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 2: and so you know, the obvious way to look at 686 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 2: it is he didn't win a title, so he's not in. 687 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 2: I think it's a little myopic to look at it 688 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:41,760 Speaker 2: that way. I think when you look at the overall 689 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 2: statistical body of work, he should he should be in Canton. 690 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,200 Speaker 14: And he just had a way about him. As I said, 691 00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 14: his poise seemed I wasn't in a huddle, but it 692 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 14: seemed like his teammates really looked up to him, So 693 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:59,720 Speaker 14: I just wanted to It's I don't know if he's listening, 694 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 14: but Kenny, we're praying. 695 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 2: For Ken listens to this show all the time. He 696 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:06,120 Speaker 2: texts me during the show occasionally, so yes, there's a 697 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 2: decent chance Ken is hearing us talk about him right now. 698 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:11,680 Speaker 5: Mike Cool, That's awesome. 699 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,719 Speaker 14: Made my day right there. I'm wondering if the Kentucky 700 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 14: folks are missing mister John Calipari right now, because Arkansas 701 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 14: is real happy to have him. 702 00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:26,720 Speaker 2: John Caliperry is a great coach. There are two contrasting styles. 703 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,320 Speaker 2: The thing about college basketball now is every coach in 704 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:31,799 Speaker 2: the country is trying to do what John Calipari did 705 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:34,439 Speaker 2: for a decade plus, which is coach a new team 706 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:38,399 Speaker 2: every year. Right in this era of college basketball, John 707 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:42,920 Speaker 2: Calipery was ironically a little bit late to adapt to 708 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 2: it because he was still, you know, focusing his team 709 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:49,399 Speaker 2: building around freshman. But Mark Pope and many others are 710 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 2: trying to do with John Calipery did it UK for 711 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 2: a very long time, and Frankly did it Memphis, which 712 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 2: is coach a new team every year. I think Kentucky's 713 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 2: gonna end up being pretty good. You've got to get 714 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,760 Speaker 2: more locked in defensively. They've got to figure out ways 715 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:07,239 Speaker 2: to look better cohesively their schedule in the first I mean, 716 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 2: they've already played a Louisville team that can win the 717 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,920 Speaker 2: national championship and a Michigan State team that can make 718 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,360 Speaker 2: a very very deep run. They still have Saint John's 719 00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 2: on their schedule, like they're They're gonna have to do 720 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:21,360 Speaker 2: a lot of learning on the fly against a schedule 721 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 2: that is, in many respects gonna be pretty unforgiving. But 722 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 2: he was at a loss last night. Mike. There's no 723 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:29,920 Speaker 2: getting around it. I gotta hit the top of the 724 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:30,319 Speaker 2: hour man. 725 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:32,919 Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, do you think that? 726 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,480 Speaker 14: Do you think that the Louisville game will be more 727 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,480 Speaker 14: of a learn good learning experience for the Bearcatcher. They 728 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:39,399 Speaker 14: have a chance to win. 729 00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:42,960 Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be a learning experience either way, Mike, 730 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 2: I'll put it that way. They have their work cut out. 731 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,320 Speaker 2: The Cardinals are awesome, So are you it's four o'clock 732 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:52,760 Speaker 2: on ESPN fifteen thirty You sure have it's five minutes 733 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 2: after four.

That is going to be happening 881 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:30,239 Speaker 2: all afternoon. It would be awesome if all of this 882 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 2: unfolds amid the afterglow of a of a UC win 883 00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:39,240 Speaker 2: at the Heritage Bank Center over Louisville. The Cardinals are terrific. 884 00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:41,560 Speaker 2: West Miller's team is off to a four to zero start. 885 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:44,080 Speaker 2: Walk me through how a game like that comes about. 886 00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:47,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean it really goes back to you know, 887 00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,239 Speaker 6: these early these early games you'll see them all over 888 00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:55,320 Speaker 6: the country are largely played neutral site, and it's almost 889 00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:58,160 Speaker 6: replacing you know, those those tournaments that you had where 890 00:47:58,160 --> 00:48:00,319 Speaker 6: you went to Maui and played three neutral site games, 891 00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 6: or you went to the Bahamas and played three neutral 892 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,400 Speaker 6: site games. A lot of those are going away, and 893 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:07,319 Speaker 6: so this year we have essentially we have our three 894 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 6: neutral site games. You know, obviously downtown Cincinnati. We'll go 895 00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:13,520 Speaker 6: back to Louisville, but play a neutral site in Louisville 896 00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:17,960 Speaker 6: next year at their neutral site, and then we'll go 897 00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:19,960 Speaker 6: to we'll go to South Carolina and play a neutral 898 00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,279 Speaker 6: site game, and then we'll go to Land and play 899 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:26,319 Speaker 6: neutral site game versus versus Georgia. So it's just kind 900 00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:28,239 Speaker 6: of the way it works. A lot of it has 901 00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:30,200 Speaker 6: to do with your net rating, a lot of it 902 00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:32,759 Speaker 6: has to do with you know, it's it's hard. These 903 00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 6: games have to be a two way street. It's hard 904 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:36,799 Speaker 6: to get it lined up to where you can get 905 00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:37,480 Speaker 6: home and homes. 906 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:38,800 Speaker 2: We got a home and home. 907 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:40,640 Speaker 6: Versus Dayton this year. We always have the home and 908 00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:42,759 Speaker 6: home versus Xavier. So we're always gonna have some really 909 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:44,759 Speaker 6: good home and homes, but we're also going to play 910 00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:45,920 Speaker 6: some neutral site games. 911 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:46,960 Speaker 5: Just kind of the way of the world. 912 00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,319 Speaker 6: And so that's how that's how it got going. And 913 00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:52,160 Speaker 6: you know, we've played dating down there a couple of times. 914 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:54,239 Speaker 6: Now we have Louisville.

You know, I 985 00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 2: went to the game last night. I went saw the 986 00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:44,080 Speaker 2: Musketeers beat Old Dominion. I sat, I sat behind you 987 00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:44,600 Speaker 2: at the game. 988 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 12: Are you that a question? 989 00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:54,000 Speaker 2: Oh no, it's I was looking for. I wanted you 990 00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:56,280 Speaker 2: to acknowledge that I was there, because you you barely 991 00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 2: acknowledged me when I was. I wanted to see if 992 00:52:58,000 --> 00:52:59,799 Speaker 2: you noticed that I even came to the game last night. 993 00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:03,239 Speaker 7: What did you want me to do? 994 00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:06,480 Speaker 16: I'm sorry, I thought you were watching the game. I 995 00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:08,000 Speaker 16: didn't want to you want me to turn around, stand 996 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:09,080 Speaker 16: up and stop it for you? 997 00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:09,600 Speaker 5: I was. 998 00:53:09,680 --> 00:53:12,680 Speaker 2: I was hoping for, like, you know, sort of continuous 999 00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:16,080 Speaker 2: rolling insight commentary from you that would just sort of 1000 00:53:16,120 --> 00:53:18,480 Speaker 2: make the experience unique. But that's okay. You were very, 1001 00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:21,719 Speaker 2: very busy. You know, this is the first time I'd 1002 00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:24,120 Speaker 2: seen the Musketeers in person. I'm not sure what everybody's 1003 00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:25,759 Speaker 2: so angry about. They looked like the greatest team of 1004 00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 2: all time? 1005 00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:29,319 Speaker 5: Yeah, how about that last night? 1006 00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:33,680 Speaker 16: For last night's performance, I mean it was I think 1007 00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:35,640 Speaker 16: a lot of it had to do with old dominion, 1008 00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:37,400 Speaker 16: the type of team they were, and the way that 1009 00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:40,600 Speaker 16: matchup set up for Xavier play. You have to acknowledge 1010 00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:44,239 Speaker 16: that that was a completely different Xavior offense from what 1011 00:53:44,280 --> 00:53:46,840 Speaker 16: we've been seeing over the first few games. 1012 00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:47,239 Speaker 5: It was. 1013 00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 16: It was definitely a revelation for fantom attendance. 1014 00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:53,440 Speaker 2: They will play two games against high major opponents Friday 1015 00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:57,920 Speaker 2: against Georgia and then either Clemson or West Virginia. What 1016 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:00,080 Speaker 2: do you expect to learn about the Musketeers and do 1017 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:01,560 Speaker 2: they have a prayer of winning either? 1018 00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:06,560 Speaker 16: I don't think their chances are great, But pretty much 1019 00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:08,880 Speaker 16: all of the teams that we're talking about in that 1020 00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:13,520 Speaker 16: grouping are mostly new rosters trying to figure it out. 1021 00:54:13,719 --> 00:54:14,360 Speaker 5: I don't think. 1022 00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:17,600 Speaker 16: Any of them are playing great basketball right now, so 1023 00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:21,319 Speaker 16: I think their games, you'll have a chance. And the 1024 00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:23,960 Speaker 16: biggest thing that I'm interested to find out about this 1025 00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:26,440 Speaker 16: leager team is, you know, as good as they looked 1026 00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:30,560 Speaker 16: against Old Dominion, as good as that smaller starting lineup. 1027 00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,440 Speaker 16: Look where they have Yovan Malisovich at the five. They 1028 00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:36,080 Speaker 16: can space the floor a little bit more, shoot the 1029 00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:39,160 Speaker 16: three a little bit better at all the positions. Can 1030 00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:42,680 Speaker 16: they rebound with that group against high major competition? Can 1031 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:45,759 Speaker 16: they defend the post with that group against high major competition? 1032 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:47,880 Speaker 16: I think that's what we're about to find out in Charleston. 1033 00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:50,640 Speaker 2: Why are they so bad offensively near the rim? 1034 00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:55,480 Speaker 6: I think because their big. 1035 00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:57,759 Speaker 16: Men have not figured it out at all yet. I mean, 1036 00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:00,359 Speaker 16: the guys that they thought were going to be starting year. 1037 00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:03,480 Speaker 16: Anthony Robinson, you know, he's playing twenty seven minutes in 1038 00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:06,440 Speaker 16: the first game, played twenty four the next few games, 1039 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 16: and then all of a sudden, he's not playing at 1040 00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:11,520 Speaker 16: all anymore. He played seven minutes in last night's game. 1041 00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:14,279 Speaker 16: He didn't check in until there were fourteen minutes in 1042 00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:17,279 Speaker 16: the second half. I think that's where a lot of 1043 00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:20,120 Speaker 16: your problems starts. You just you're getting no production out 1044 00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:22,120 Speaker 16: of the guys you thought were going to be your 1045 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:24,760 Speaker 16: most talented big men. So now all of a sudden 1046 00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:27,239 Speaker 16: you having to kind of scramble and go to a 1047 00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:30,120 Speaker 16: smaller lineup and really space the floor and shoot a 1048 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:33,319 Speaker 16: lot more jump shots. And I think we're you know, 1049 00:55:33,360 --> 00:55:37,879 Speaker 16: this Charleston event is going to show us how much 1050 00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 16: they're going to pay for that against big East like 1051 00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:41,200 Speaker 16: competition you. 1052 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:43,799 Speaker 2: Know you mentioned and Xavier is one of them, right, 1053 00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:46,600 Speaker 2: Coaches trying to figure out what they have on the 1054 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:50,080 Speaker 2: fly and in some cases against really good competitions. Xavier 1055 00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:52,160 Speaker 2: had to play a game on the road against Iowa. 1056 00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,680 Speaker 2: Coaches have jumped on the bandwagon that we need like 1057 00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:58,520 Speaker 2: four preseason games. I may have asked you this, and 1058 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,479 Speaker 2: pardon me if I have. If you where college basketballs are, 1059 00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:04,680 Speaker 2: what would the preseason look like given the fact that 1060 00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:06,439 Speaker 2: we are in a day and age where so many 1061 00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:09,160 Speaker 2: teams are trying to figure out what they have and 1062 00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:11,440 Speaker 2: in many cases brand new rosters entirely. 1063 00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:15,160 Speaker 5: And I here's what I want to know. 1064 00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:18,960 Speaker 16: Can I get access to whatever the coaches meeting was 1065 00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:20,880 Speaker 16: where they all decided they were going to use that 1066 00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:24,279 Speaker 16: as the new buzz term every interview I've heard it 1067 00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:26,680 Speaker 16: from every coach this year. I think that we need 1068 00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:28,360 Speaker 16: to have more preseason games. 1069 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:28,680 Speaker 12: Now. 1070 00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:31,879 Speaker 16: I'm not necessarily against the idea I'm just fascinated by 1071 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:34,839 Speaker 16: how they all had the exact same talking point going 1072 00:56:34,880 --> 00:56:38,479 Speaker 16: into the season. But yeah, I love We talked about 1073 00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:41,480 Speaker 16: this when we did the preview show in Studio MO 1074 00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:45,800 Speaker 16: that I love exhibition season now where you know, granted, 1075 00:56:45,920 --> 00:56:48,520 Speaker 16: it'd be better if these games were regular season games 1076 00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:51,640 Speaker 16: that meant something, but since most of these teams aren't 1077 00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:53,720 Speaker 16: going to play many of those types of matchups against 1078 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:56,439 Speaker 16: each other, I love the idea of getting these high 1079 00:56:56,480 --> 00:57:00,640 Speaker 16: major meetings like a Kentucky Purdue game in the preseason 1080 00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:01,480 Speaker 16: as an exhibition. 1081 00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:04,200 Speaker 5: So yeah, I say the more the better. With those, 1082 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:05,560 Speaker 5: I would take three or four of them. 1083 00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:07,720 Speaker 2: Can NK you beat Central Michigan. 1084 00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:11,200 Speaker 16: Well, I think it's going to be a really good 1085 00:57:11,200 --> 00:57:11,879 Speaker 16: test for them. 1086 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:14,320 Speaker 5: You know that all of their results. 1087 00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:17,240 Speaker 16: So far have been kind of outlaw a results, except 1088 00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:19,040 Speaker 16: for maybe the East Tennessee State game. 1089 00:57:19,280 --> 00:57:21,400 Speaker 5: East Tennessee State was ranked about one hundred and. 1090 00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:23,840 Speaker 16: Twenty spots higher than them in ken Pom, so it 1091 00:57:23,880 --> 00:57:25,120 Speaker 16: was a good matchup on the road. 1092 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:26,000 Speaker 5: They got off to. 1093 00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:28,560 Speaker 16: A terrible start and they end up losing by double digits. 1094 00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:30,600 Speaker 16: That's what I think you're trying to avoid. And the 1095 00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:33,120 Speaker 16: Central Michigan game. It's another team that's ranked ahead of 1096 00:57:33,200 --> 00:57:36,240 Speaker 16: you in Ken Palm, but it's a closer matchup and 1097 00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:37,800 Speaker 16: you just got to get off to a better start 1098 00:57:37,880 --> 00:57:41,439 Speaker 16: on the road to give yourself a chance. The Tennessee game, 1099 00:57:41,800 --> 00:57:44,960 Speaker 16: obviously there were some limitations in that one physically going 1100 00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:47,240 Speaker 16: to get up against their big men that were always 1101 00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:49,280 Speaker 16: going to make that a very difficult matchup. And then 1102 00:57:49,520 --> 00:57:52,120 Speaker 16: the two non Division one games don't really tell us 1103 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:53,360 Speaker 16: a lot other than NK. 1104 00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:54,800 Speaker 5: You can score a lot of. 1105 00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:58,080 Speaker 16: Points against lower level competition, so this is going to 1106 00:57:58,120 --> 00:57:59,800 Speaker 16: be a really good measuring stick for the Norse. 1107 00:58:00,840 --> 00:58:04,000 Speaker 2: That'll be an or night on ESPN fifteen thirty. You 1108 00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:05,640 Speaker 2: don't know where in Ohio you are. 1109 00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:10,920 Speaker 16: A Bluffton, Arlington, good Mouth there. 1110 00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:12,960 Speaker 2: They're good and then how far? How far? And how 1111 00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:15,160 Speaker 2: long until you get to Mount Pleasant? 1112 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:20,919 Speaker 16: Well arrived there were probably more like nine ish after 1113 00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:23,120 Speaker 16: we stop to eat, we're on past or about an 1114 00:58:23,160 --> 00:58:24,080 Speaker 16: eight o'clock arrival. 1115 00:58:24,080 --> 00:58:26,080 Speaker 5: As it currently stands very good. 1116 00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:28,960 Speaker 2: We'll have a good time, be safe, and we'll be 1117 00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:30,640 Speaker 2: listening tomorrow.

Joe Flacco limited, 1164 01:00:57,400 --> 01:00:59,760 Speaker 2: which means he was there but he wasn't throwing. Let 1165 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:02,640 Speaker 2: me make this very simple. Okay, if the Bengals are 1166 01:01:02,720 --> 01:01:06,120 Speaker 2: out of it, and I know realistically, okay, season's over, 1167 01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:10,320 Speaker 2: but mathematically there's a chance Joe Burrow should play on Sunday. 1168 01:01:10,880 --> 01:01:13,280 Speaker 2: One guy's old and has a bum arm and he's 1169 01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:16,560 Speaker 2: not practicing.

We have a 1191 01:02:19,280 --> 01:02:19,960 Speaker 2: lot to discuss. 1192 01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:21,120 Speaker 18: We've got a lot to get to. 1193 01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:24,280 Speaker 2: Tickets have been in the news recently because there's so 1194 01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:27,520 Speaker 2: many games, so many events going on right now now. 1195 01:02:27,640 --> 01:02:31,560 Speaker 2: AI is an inescapable part of our everyday lives. Right 1196 01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:35,680 Speaker 2: You can't go anywhere without AI infiltratings, in some cases helping, 1197 01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:39,040 Speaker 2: in some cases not helping. AI is going to impact 1198 01:02:39,080 --> 01:02:41,680 Speaker 2: how we buy tickets? Is the positive? Is the impact 1199 01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:44,439 Speaker 2: going to be positive or negative? For an average fan 1200 01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:45,120 Speaker 2: like myself? 1201 01:02:45,240 --> 01:02:47,640 Speaker 19: I think we don't know, yeah, which is kind of 1202 01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:50,720 Speaker 19: my response to most things with AI. But I think 1203 01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:53,320 Speaker 19: clearly there's a problem, right for consumers. If you want 1204 01:02:53,360 --> 01:02:56,800 Speaker 19: to buy a ticket online and you Google you know, 1205 01:02:57,640 --> 01:03:00,840 Speaker 19: Bengals Browns, whatever, Bengals Steelers, whatever game it is that 1206 01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:05,400 Speaker 19: you want to go to, then those c places pay 1207 01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:09,040 Speaker 19: large amounts of money for search engine optimization to show 1208 01:03:09,120 --> 01:03:11,000 Speaker 19: up with the pop at the top of your search. Right, 1209 01:03:11,360 --> 01:03:14,320 Speaker 19: But you still have Sea Geek, you still have stub Hub, 1210 01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:16,800 Speaker 19: you still have Vivid, you still have ticketmasks, and you 1211 01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:19,680 Speaker 19: have to go through each one of them individually to 1212 01:03:19,760 --> 01:03:23,240 Speaker 19: try to find vastly different prices seatability. 1213 01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:26,160 Speaker 18: Right, So all of those things are a really big 1214 01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:27,280 Speaker 18: headache for the consumer. 1215 01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:32,760 Speaker 19: Well, recently, AI developers kind of announced that just despite 1216 01:03:32,800 --> 01:03:35,600 Speaker 19: the fact that before when you went to AI, AI 1217 01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:39,360 Speaker 19: could only just pull a bunch of information, kind of 1218 01:03:39,400 --> 01:03:45,200 Speaker 19: the next frontier of AI is AI having agentic capabilities 1219 01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:49,120 Speaker 19: agency right to do things online. I mean, it is 1220 01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:51,280 Speaker 19: a little bit creepy when you think about it, but 1221 01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:55,080 Speaker 19: if you want to apply that level of capability to 1222 01:03:55,480 --> 01:03:59,000 Speaker 19: the issue that consumers have buying these tickets in such 1223 01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:04,680 Speaker 19: a stressful, redicticulously complicated way, essentially, now what you have 1224 01:04:05,120 --> 01:04:08,760 Speaker 19: is AI. You could say, Moe could say I want 1225 01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:10,600 Speaker 19: tickets to the UC basketball game. 1226 01:04:10,640 --> 01:04:12,720 Speaker 18: Not that you've paid for a UC basketball game in 1227 01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:16,160 Speaker 18: like the last decade, but say you did, say you did. 1228 01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:20,160 Speaker 19: And you said I'm willing to pay one hundred bucks 1229 01:04:20,200 --> 01:04:22,400 Speaker 19: for seats, and then it. 1230 01:04:22,360 --> 01:04:26,000 Speaker 18: Could search right through all of the options and. 1231 01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:28,800 Speaker 19: Give you your top two or three options, and it 1232 01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:33,160 Speaker 19: could also potentially buy them. If you wanted to give AI, 1233 01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:36,200 Speaker 19: you know, your credit card information, which I don't think 1234 01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:40,720 Speaker 19: it exists at that level, you could give it your 1235 01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:45,480 Speaker 19: your price limitations. Here are the potential issues with that, 1236 01:04:46,840 --> 01:04:48,720 Speaker 19: and this gets into the weeds, and listen, I'm not 1237 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:54,240 Speaker 19: a coder person, but the critics are saying these these 1238 01:04:54,280 --> 01:04:58,960 Speaker 19: ticket places could embed price codes that you and I 1239 01:04:59,040 --> 01:05:02,160 Speaker 19: couldn't see when we're searching for the tickets ourselves, but 1240 01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:04,920 Speaker 19: that could be picked up by these bots, so it 1241 01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:08,320 Speaker 19: could give them a false price, but it's not really 1242 01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:11,200 Speaker 19: the price. So it's pulling up ticket information that isn't 1243 01:05:11,320 --> 01:05:15,680 Speaker 19: real ticket information because there's things that are embedded in 1244 01:05:15,800 --> 01:05:18,680 Speaker 19: the system that you and I can't see. So that's 1245 01:05:18,840 --> 01:05:22,400 Speaker 19: a a problem. B One of the things that AI 1246 01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:28,760 Speaker 19: is looking for is the highest level of like high 1247 01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:31,200 Speaker 19: quality search for you. Right, So if you're saying, like, 1248 01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:33,000 Speaker 19: so it would be like the best seeds in the 1249 01:05:33,040 --> 01:05:36,080 Speaker 19: best location, blah blah blah, and it would score. 1250 01:05:35,800 --> 01:05:37,560 Speaker 18: A number from maybe like zero to ten. 1251 01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:40,919 Speaker 19: So these tickets are a perfect ten for your match, right, 1252 01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:43,320 Speaker 19: And that's kind of how the system works now. 1253 01:05:43,840 --> 01:05:46,160 Speaker 18: But what they could try to do and kind of 1254 01:05:46,400 --> 01:05:47,000 Speaker 18: working the. 1255 01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:52,600 Speaker 19: System is falsely give a higher number to return a 1256 01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:55,520 Speaker 19: ticket to you that wouldn't actually be your best option, 1257 01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:58,520 Speaker 19: and if you were really searching yourself, you would probably 1258 01:05:58,560 --> 01:06:00,800 Speaker 19: find something better option for it. 1259 01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:04,840 Speaker 18: So are we moving in a direction where AI can 1260 01:06:04,880 --> 01:06:05,880 Speaker 18: do this? Yes? 1261 01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:09,120 Speaker 19: Are there issues, Yes, a lot of them right now. 1262 01:06:09,160 --> 01:06:11,960 Speaker 19: But I think the interesting thing is that by twenty 1263 01:06:12,040 --> 01:06:16,400 Speaker 19: twenty nine, stats say, I mean, however much you want 1264 01:06:16,440 --> 01:06:20,040 Speaker 19: to give to that that seventy plus percent of us 1265 01:06:20,120 --> 01:06:22,920 Speaker 19: will forego something like a Google search and go straight 1266 01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:25,320 Speaker 19: to AI to purchase tickets. 1267 01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:28,720 Speaker 2: I now just want to walk downtown to like third 1268 01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:31,160 Speaker 2: and Maine and the guys standing there with the sign 1269 01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:33,440 Speaker 2: that says I have tickets. I now just want to 1270 01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:36,560 Speaker 2: talk to him.

So are 1284 01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:15,120 Speaker 2: we trending toward a reality where sports wagering is legal, 1285 01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:17,520 Speaker 2: but sports prop bets are going to be off the board. 1286 01:07:17,920 --> 01:07:22,240 Speaker 19: I think we are moving toward a direction where there 1287 01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:25,280 Speaker 19: will likely be more regulation around prop betting. 1288 01:07:25,280 --> 01:07:28,080 Speaker 18: And you and I talked about this very recently. 1289 01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:31,320 Speaker 19: In the fact that listen, these coaches, these players, we 1290 01:07:31,760 --> 01:07:33,200 Speaker 19: want to say that one hundred percent of the time 1291 01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:36,400 Speaker 19: they're out there giving it, they're all because they love 1292 01:07:36,440 --> 01:07:37,920 Speaker 19: the sport, and also they get paid. 1293 01:07:37,720 --> 01:07:39,200 Speaker 18: Pretty good paychecks too. 1294 01:07:39,400 --> 01:07:43,000 Speaker 19: But I think it's easier for any kind of bad 1295 01:07:43,120 --> 01:07:46,120 Speaker 19: character to wrap their mind around Well, I'm not really 1296 01:07:46,120 --> 01:07:48,800 Speaker 19: throwing the outcome of this game. I'm just throwing the 1297 01:07:48,840 --> 01:07:52,120 Speaker 19: first pitch in this inning into the dirt, right. 1298 01:07:52,040 --> 01:07:53,880 Speaker 18: That's a little more okay, I mean, that's not as 1299 01:07:54,000 --> 01:07:55,200 Speaker 18: big of a deal, right. 1300 01:07:55,600 --> 01:07:58,960 Speaker 19: And so what we're starting to see is leagues trying 1301 01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:02,360 Speaker 19: to crack down on this prop betting, which, by the way, 1302 01:08:03,240 --> 01:08:05,960 Speaker 19: these sports books do not want because they're making a 1303 01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:09,600 Speaker 19: heck of a lot more money on these prop bets 1304 01:08:10,040 --> 01:08:13,240 Speaker 19: than they are on regular bets. And you have parlays 1305 01:08:13,280 --> 01:08:16,559 Speaker 19: that have prop bets as part of them. It goes 1306 01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:20,040 Speaker 19: from on average, the making about nine percent off of 1307 01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:23,160 Speaker 19: whatever bet you're placing a closer to twenty percent, right, 1308 01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:26,439 Speaker 19: So this is incredibly lucrative for them. So kind of 1309 01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:28,840 Speaker 19: the first steps that we're starting to see in this 1310 01:08:28,960 --> 01:08:33,080 Speaker 19: direction is MLB is now working with sports books. They're 1311 01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:36,040 Speaker 19: going to cap the amount that you can wager on 1312 01:08:36,360 --> 01:08:40,479 Speaker 19: these individual prop bets, right, so that people cannot have 1313 01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:45,479 Speaker 19: a gazillion dollars writing on this next bitch that is thrown. 1314 01:08:46,240 --> 01:08:47,120 Speaker 18: And then they're. 1315 01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:49,879 Speaker 19: Also working to exclude prop bets from parlays. 1316 01:08:50,360 --> 01:08:52,120 Speaker 2: Really, yeah, not gonna be able to do the same 1317 01:08:52,120 --> 01:08:53,479 Speaker 2: game parlay with their prop bet anymore. 1318 01:08:53,520 --> 01:08:54,000 Speaker 18: Yep, yep. 1319 01:08:54,280 --> 01:08:59,400 Speaker 19: In Interestingly, Ohio's Governor Mike DeWine has been saying, listen, 1320 01:08:59,520 --> 01:09:02,599 Speaker 19: this is been needed for a long time. These prop 1321 01:09:02,600 --> 01:09:05,439 Speaker 19: bets are incredibly dangerous, and so he's calling on other 1322 01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:09,160 Speaker 19: sports leagues to say, hey, MLB is leading the charge 1323 01:09:09,200 --> 01:09:12,160 Speaker 19: with us, and we need to be paying close attention. 1324 01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:15,880 Speaker 19: MBA is also working with sports books right now, saying 1325 01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:20,040 Speaker 19: anything that can be easily manipulated, like I'm going to 1326 01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:23,479 Speaker 19: hit this next free shot or not, or the first 1327 01:09:23,520 --> 01:09:26,200 Speaker 19: free shot that mo Egger is shooting in this game, 1328 01:09:26,240 --> 01:09:31,280 Speaker 19: he's going to miss or hit, you know, something like 1329 01:09:31,439 --> 01:09:35,840 Speaker 19: a turnover, you know, looks like a sloppy pass, that. 1330 01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:36,439 Speaker 18: Kind of thing. 1331 01:09:36,920 --> 01:09:39,080 Speaker 19: Those kinds of things are working to crack down on 1332 01:09:39,160 --> 01:09:39,960 Speaker 19: and listen, I mean. 1333 01:09:39,800 --> 01:09:43,280 Speaker 18: This is this is across any sport.

Now it's like, 1441 01:14:33,120 --> 01:14:34,720 Speaker 13: let's try his son really. 1442 01:14:36,200 --> 01:14:36,360 Speaker 12: Well? 1443 01:14:36,600 --> 01:14:39,479 Speaker 13: Please, what what what is Paul Danner? 1444 01:14:39,640 --> 01:14:41,040 Speaker 12: What is? What have you heard? 1445 01:14:41,520 --> 01:14:43,640 Speaker 20: I mean, I know that Zach's still here, but I 1446 01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:45,200 Speaker 20: mean that cannot be true. 1447 01:14:45,240 --> 01:14:45,559 Speaker 12: I can't. 1448 01:14:45,600 --> 01:14:46,479 Speaker 13: I can't live through that. 1449 01:14:46,520 --> 01:14:50,080 Speaker 2: Mo Well, I don't necessarily think it's fair to hold 1450 01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:53,880 Speaker 2: against Chris the failures of his dad. Chris, I think 1451 01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:56,400 Speaker 2: is going to be this. This doesn't feel like a 1452 01:14:56,439 --> 01:15:00,439 Speaker 2: cycle where there's like the Ben Johnson or another years 1453 01:15:00,439 --> 01:15:02,960 Speaker 2: where like everybody wanted to talk to Josh McDaniels. It 1454 01:15:02,960 --> 01:15:06,280 Speaker 2: doesn't feel like that guy is out there. I think, 1455 01:15:06,600 --> 01:15:08,639 Speaker 2: you know, you talk about like familiar names to folks 1456 01:15:08,640 --> 01:15:11,040 Speaker 2: in Cincinnati. I think Jesse Minner's name is gonna come 1457 01:15:11,120 --> 01:15:14,680 Speaker 2: up a lot. But Chris Jula has been has been 1458 01:15:14,680 --> 01:15:16,880 Speaker 2: coaching in the NFL for a while. He has risen 1459 01:15:16,960 --> 01:15:20,559 Speaker 2: up the ranks with the La Rams. He was on 1460 01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:23,040 Speaker 2: their staff when they beat the Bengals in the Super Bowl. 1461 01:15:23,080 --> 01:15:26,040 Speaker 2: He has been the defensive coordinator over the last couple 1462 01:15:26,080 --> 01:15:31,400 Speaker 2: of years. So I'm not gonna hold against the Chris Sula, 1463 01:15:31,880 --> 01:15:34,519 Speaker 2: the failures of his dad. But it does feel like 1464 01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:38,120 Speaker 2: there's legitimate interest. It does feel like there's legitimate interest 1465 01:15:39,600 --> 01:15:41,479 Speaker 2: on behalf of the New York Giants and Chris Sula. 1466 01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:44,080 Speaker 2: So I don't know. I don't know. 1467 01:15:44,439 --> 01:15:47,559 Speaker 20: We'll see, maybe maybe he can go somewhere, somewhere else, 1468 01:15:47,560 --> 01:15:49,920 Speaker 20: because like I said, I feel like just the name 1469 01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:52,160 Speaker 20: itself give me pts emo. 1470 01:15:53,560 --> 01:15:55,679 Speaker 2: Well, you know, it could be easier for his dad 1471 01:15:55,720 --> 01:15:58,840 Speaker 2: to come back and we could celebrate Dave thirty years 1472 01:15:58,960 --> 01:15:59,760 Speaker 2: or so after he got. 1473 01:15:59,720 --> 01:15:59,960 Speaker 12: Like a. 1474 01:16:01,520 --> 01:16:03,840 Speaker 13: Yeah, but mo, can we agree that. 1475 01:16:03,920 --> 01:16:08,320 Speaker 20: I feel like we know the offense doesn't really need fixing, 1476 01:16:08,520 --> 01:16:11,600 Speaker 20: So I feel like the next hire should be a 1477 01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:12,960 Speaker 20: defensive minded coach. 1478 01:16:13,080 --> 01:16:13,719 Speaker 13: Am I wrong? 1479 01:16:15,800 --> 01:16:16,400 Speaker 2: I don't know. 1480 01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:17,439 Speaker 5: I don't know. 1481 01:16:17,520 --> 01:16:20,559 Speaker 2: I'm looking for the best candidate, and to me, that's 1482 01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:26,559 Speaker 2: doesn't really matter where your your discipline comes from. I 1483 01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:29,360 Speaker 2: don't I'm looking for the best leader. I'm looking for 1484 01:16:29,400 --> 01:16:34,120 Speaker 2: the person who can be who's gonna hire really good 1485 01:16:34,160 --> 01:16:36,559 Speaker 2: assistance and who's going to be able to work hand 1486 01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:39,439 Speaker 2: in hand with whoever's picking the players. And if that 1487 01:16:39,479 --> 01:16:42,439 Speaker 2: person has an offensive background, fine, If that person is 1488 01:16:42,479 --> 01:16:45,320 Speaker 2: a defensive background, fine. I know there's a school of 1489 01:16:45,400 --> 01:16:47,680 Speaker 2: thought that says, well, you go from an offensive guy 1490 01:16:47,680 --> 01:16:49,760 Speaker 2: to a defensive guy, from a defensive guy to an 1491 01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:54,400 Speaker 2: offensive guy. I don't so much care about that. I'm 1492 01:16:54,439 --> 01:16:56,960 Speaker 2: looking for somebody who's going to manage the game well, 1493 01:16:57,520 --> 01:16:59,719 Speaker 2: who's going to have a positive imprint on the roster, 1494 01:16:59,800 --> 01:17:02,479 Speaker 2: who players aren't gonna quit on him, and who knows 1495 01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:04,360 Speaker 2: what to look for when hiring assistance. 1496 01:17:06,120 --> 01:17:06,320 Speaker 12: Yeah. 1497 01:17:06,439 --> 01:17:09,240 Speaker 20: No, is it fair to say. I mean, like I said, 1498 01:17:09,280 --> 01:17:12,000 Speaker 20: you and I are about the same age. I feel 1499 01:17:12,040 --> 01:17:15,400 Speaker 20: like I've seen this act before with Zach Taylor. It 1500 01:17:15,439 --> 01:17:16,639 Speaker 20: looks like the team is quit. 1501 01:17:16,720 --> 01:17:17,360 Speaker 13: Am I wrong? 1502 01:17:17,479 --> 01:17:18,639 Speaker 7: Does it look that way to you? 1503 01:17:19,040 --> 01:17:19,120 Speaker 10: So? 1504 01:17:19,240 --> 01:17:21,360 Speaker 2: I think you're half right. I think the team, I 1505 01:17:21,360 --> 01:17:24,920 Speaker 2: think the defensive players in mass have quit. I think 1506 01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:28,080 Speaker 2: there are exceptions. I thought Miles Murphy played hard on Sunday. 1507 01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:30,519 Speaker 2: But I think the difference, though, is the reason I 1508 01:17:30,560 --> 01:17:33,280 Speaker 2: think you're only half right is I don't think we've 1509 01:17:33,320 --> 01:17:37,320 Speaker 2: seen this before. Over the course of Zach's first six seasons, 1510 01:17:38,200 --> 01:17:41,320 Speaker 2: I can't recall a time where I thought that a 1511 01:17:41,360 --> 01:17:44,599 Speaker 2: lot of players just didn't care. And to me, that's 1512 01:17:44,640 --> 01:17:47,240 Speaker 2: what makes this different, and that's what makes this an 1513 01:17:47,240 --> 01:17:50,400 Speaker 2: indictment on Zach Taylor. This is the first time. And 1514 01:17:50,760 --> 01:17:53,439 Speaker 2: there have been players who maybe weren't totally boding. Carlos 1515 01:17:53,520 --> 01:17:56,360 Speaker 2: Dunlapp wanted out for a reason, and maybe there were 1516 01:17:56,360 --> 01:17:59,759 Speaker 2: individual players that just didn't buy in and their effort 1517 01:17:59,760 --> 01:18:03,080 Speaker 2: on showed as much. But what I saw on Sunday, 1518 01:18:03,160 --> 01:18:06,280 Speaker 2: we're a whole lot of defensive guys who didn't play 1519 01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:09,880 Speaker 2: hard and who seemingly didn't care. And I think that's 1520 01:18:09,920 --> 01:18:12,280 Speaker 2: the first time we could say that during Zach Taylor's 1521 01:18:12,280 --> 01:18:15,200 Speaker 2: time in Cincinnati. That to me is what is so 1522 01:18:15,320 --> 01:18:18,679 Speaker 2: striking about what Sunday looked like. And it's why Zach Taylor, 1523 01:18:18,800 --> 01:18:21,040 Speaker 2: for me, at least for the first time in six 1524 01:18:21,080 --> 01:18:24,839 Speaker 2: and a half years, is firmly in the crosshairs because 1525 01:18:24,920 --> 01:18:27,519 Speaker 2: it feels like a large chunk of the team has 1526 01:18:28,120 --> 01:18:31,160 Speaker 2: quit on him. 1527 01:18:31,360 --> 01:18:31,679 Speaker 12: Yeah. 1528 01:18:31,800 --> 01:18:33,880 Speaker 13: No, I just don't know what to think, because, like 1529 01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:35,160 Speaker 13: I said, I mean, it's just. 1530 01:18:37,040 --> 01:18:39,320 Speaker 20: Even if the Bengals try, I feel like the only 1531 01:18:39,400 --> 01:18:41,759 Speaker 20: game they can possibly win on the rest of the schedule. 1532 01:18:41,760 --> 01:18:44,160 Speaker 13: I don't know how you feel, but is the Who Care? 1533 01:18:44,240 --> 01:18:47,280 Speaker 21: What I'm listening is the Who Cares Loser Bowl, which 1534 01:18:47,360 --> 01:18:51,800 Speaker 21: is the Bengals Browns Week seventeen because Mike McDaniel has 1535 01:18:51,880 --> 01:18:55,439 Speaker 21: turned the ship around on the Dolphins. So, I mean, 1536 01:18:55,560 --> 01:18:57,680 Speaker 21: the Who Cares Bowl is about the only game we 1537 01:18:57,720 --> 01:18:58,120 Speaker 21: can win. 1538 01:19:00,160 --> 01:19:01,920 Speaker 2: It's the only I mean. I think they'll be favored 1539 01:19:01,920 --> 01:19:05,599 Speaker 2: against Arizona here. I think they'll be favored against Cleveland, 1540 01:19:05,640 --> 01:19:07,559 Speaker 2: and they'll be underdogs against everybody else. 1541 01:19:09,360 --> 01:19:09,599 Speaker 12: Yeah. 1542 01:19:09,640 --> 01:19:12,680 Speaker 20: I mean, the way Joe Kobe Breseette is playing, he 1543 01:19:12,680 --> 01:19:14,600 Speaker 20: could probably tear up the Bengals secondary. 1544 01:19:14,600 --> 01:19:17,840 Speaker 2: I would think that's the thing, right, I mean, you go, okay, well, 1545 01:19:17,840 --> 01:19:20,360 Speaker 2: they're gonna get carved up by Lamar Jackson and they're 1546 01:19:20,360 --> 01:19:22,280 Speaker 2: gonna have a hard time with Drake May and Josh 1547 01:19:22,360 --> 01:19:24,360 Speaker 2: Allen is gonna do their thing. The problem with a 1548 01:19:24,400 --> 01:19:28,080 Speaker 2: really bad defense is it makes the bad offense is good. 1549 01:19:28,160 --> 01:19:31,080 Speaker 2: We saw that against the Jets, right, we saw what 1550 01:19:31,120 --> 01:19:33,439 Speaker 2: the New York Jets, which two weeks prior had a 1551 01:19:33,439 --> 01:19:36,160 Speaker 2: game where they threw for negative ten yards. You worry 1552 01:19:36,160 --> 01:19:38,080 Speaker 2: about the Cardinals, and you worry about the Dolphins, and 1553 01:19:38,120 --> 01:19:41,240 Speaker 2: you worry about the Cleveland Browns, and in all likelihood 1554 01:19:41,240 --> 01:19:43,479 Speaker 2: shoot or Sanders. It ain't good run, But I gotta 1555 01:19:43,520 --> 01:19:47,559 Speaker 2: run man, thanks so much. He'll be well, all right, 1556 01:19:47,880 --> 01:19:52,000 Speaker 2: hope you're feeling better. Zach Taylor's teams I've never thought 1557 01:19:52,479 --> 01:19:56,400 Speaker 2: have quit. What I watched on Sunday was a defense 1558 01:19:56,760 --> 01:20:00,120 Speaker 2: that quit. It's five o'clock on ESPN fifteen third. 1559 01:20:00,320 --> 01:20:03,439 Speaker 1: School is in session when the Bengals look to take 1560 01:20:03,520 --> 01:20:07,240 Speaker 1: New England to task. Who new history class could get 1561 01:20:07,400 --> 01:20:11,240 Speaker 1: this violent? Speaking of the Patriots? I wonder how I 1562 01:20:11,400 --> 01:20:15,360 Speaker 1: would look in a powdered wig. Probably not good.

Hi Skinny, Hi 1778 01:30:31,120 --> 01:30:31,720 Speaker 2: mo So. 1779 01:30:31,800 --> 01:30:33,639 Speaker 7: I didn't get a chance here the Mike Tyson interview 1780 01:30:33,640 --> 01:30:35,320 Speaker 7: because I was busy doing some other stuff when he 1781 01:30:35,360 --> 01:30:37,360 Speaker 7: after this, did he sing in the air tonight? I 1782 01:30:37,479 --> 01:30:38,040 Speaker 7: chance at all? 1783 01:30:38,120 --> 01:30:40,160 Speaker 2: You know, we should have asked him to do that. 1784 01:30:39,920 --> 01:30:42,000 Speaker 2: That was not That was not something that we were 1785 01:30:42,040 --> 01:30:44,360 Speaker 2: able to get to. But perhaps perhaps the next time 1786 01:30:44,360 --> 01:30:46,000 Speaker 2: we have Mike on, well, we'll see if we can 1787 01:30:46,040 --> 01:30:50,320 Speaker 2: get that done. All right, Joe Burrow practiced. Is he 1788 01:30:50,360 --> 01:30:52,400 Speaker 2: gonna play on Sunday? 1789 01:30:53,000 --> 01:30:53,120 Speaker 10: No? 1790 01:30:53,200 --> 01:30:57,599 Speaker 7: I think it's a long shot. He's practicing foul, although 1791 01:30:57,640 --> 01:31:00,960 Speaker 7: I'm guessing he the very least split reps, if not 1792 01:31:01,240 --> 01:31:04,080 Speaker 7: gave up less rep or or had less reps compared 1793 01:31:04,120 --> 01:31:07,800 Speaker 7: to Jake Browning Joe Flacco. The plan was never from 1794 01:31:07,840 --> 01:31:10,439 Speaker 7: the practice this, this, this, today, this is a third 1795 01:31:10,479 --> 01:31:13,519 Speaker 7: straight Wednesday's missed. He's gonna throw tomorrow. We'll see how 1796 01:31:13,560 --> 01:31:15,439 Speaker 7: that goes. He says he feels good. He says his 1797 01:31:15,479 --> 01:31:18,280 Speaker 7: whole body feels good. We'll see. And I just think, 1798 01:31:18,360 --> 01:31:21,519 Speaker 7: I I think rushing Joe Burrow back out there. I 1799 01:31:21,560 --> 01:31:23,360 Speaker 7: will say this in the locker room today. So we 1800 01:31:23,360 --> 01:31:24,880 Speaker 7: get to doll with Flaco's press commas. I had to 1801 01:31:24,920 --> 01:31:26,960 Speaker 7: go talk to a couple of players, and I left 1802 01:31:26,960 --> 01:31:29,360 Speaker 7: the locker room early to go transcribe part of Flacco. 1803 01:31:29,479 --> 01:31:31,960 Speaker 7: And as I walked past Burrow's locker, He's sitting in it, 1804 01:31:32,400 --> 01:31:34,240 Speaker 7: and I kid you not, he looked like he had 1805 01:31:34,320 --> 01:31:36,960 Speaker 7: just been shell shocked from zero blitzes for like fifty 1806 01:31:37,000 --> 01:31:38,960 Speaker 7: three plays. Like what just happened to me? 1807 01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:41,439 Speaker 23: I literally it took me a back, like I thought, I. 1808 01:31:41,520 --> 01:31:43,639 Speaker 7: Walk by now, he's got that hairdo now right where 1809 01:31:43,640 --> 01:31:45,800 Speaker 7: it just drapes in his face. Sometimes it's all over 1810 01:31:45,840 --> 01:31:48,160 Speaker 7: the map and needs a haircut. But I literally I 1811 01:31:48,200 --> 01:31:50,560 Speaker 7: walked by him and I looked, and I talked to 1812 01:31:50,560 --> 01:31:52,520 Speaker 7: another meme where I go, It's okay. 1813 01:31:52,640 --> 01:31:53,920 Speaker 5: I don't know, man, that looked weird. 1814 01:31:54,000 --> 01:31:54,800 Speaker 7: I go, shure did. 1815 01:31:56,600 --> 01:31:58,920 Speaker 2: So I mean, do you think he was dealing with 1816 01:31:58,960 --> 01:32:02,040 Speaker 2: some sort of physical disc is there emotional trauma for 1817 01:32:02,160 --> 01:32:04,280 Speaker 2: realizing there are seven more Bengals games to go? Like, 1818 01:32:04,280 --> 01:32:05,960 Speaker 2: what did any idea what he's dealing with. 1819 01:32:07,200 --> 01:32:08,520 Speaker 14: I'll go the ladder. 1820 01:32:08,640 --> 01:32:11,240 Speaker 7: I'll go the ladder because again he did practice in full, 1821 01:32:11,280 --> 01:32:15,080 Speaker 7: which means he got through the practice physically. Again, I 1822 01:32:15,120 --> 01:32:17,320 Speaker 7: know he didn't take all the reps. I'm gonna go 1823 01:32:17,439 --> 01:32:20,000 Speaker 7: with with the ladder, like, Okay, now I'm good enough 1824 01:32:20,040 --> 01:32:22,120 Speaker 7: to traumas and play or I really want. 1825 01:32:21,960 --> 01:32:22,400 Speaker 12: To with you? 1826 01:32:23,240 --> 01:32:23,680 Speaker 7: I don't know. 1827 01:32:25,080 --> 01:32:27,800 Speaker 2: Uh Dejon Anthony was back in practice. Can he play 1828 01:32:27,800 --> 01:32:28,360 Speaker 2: on Sunday? 1829 01:32:28,520 --> 01:32:28,760 Speaker 12: Yay? 1830 01:32:30,040 --> 01:32:33,040 Speaker 7: I think he can anybody. 1831 01:32:32,560 --> 01:32:34,800 Speaker 2: But Ginos don't literally anybody. 1832 01:32:34,880 --> 01:32:37,519 Speaker 7: I'm kind of with you. I'm kind I'm very much 1833 01:32:37,560 --> 01:32:40,559 Speaker 7: with you. And the weird part is that we've talked 1834 01:32:40,560 --> 01:32:42,960 Speaker 7: about is that nauseum. I mean, this wasn't like something 1835 01:32:43,000 --> 01:32:46,880 Speaker 7: we didn't know last year, clear evidence of last year, 1836 01:32:46,880 --> 01:32:49,880 Speaker 7: and yet you said no, we're good. In fact, we're 1837 01:32:49,880 --> 01:32:51,639 Speaker 7: good enough with the depth and it's not gonna matter 1838 01:32:51,640 --> 01:32:52,960 Speaker 7: there either. Even though we don't want to play the 1839 01:32:52,960 --> 01:32:54,639 Speaker 7: guys by him because don't think they can play. 1840 01:32:54,720 --> 01:32:58,479 Speaker 2: What are we doing by I keep framing it like this. 1841 01:32:58,640 --> 01:33:00,759 Speaker 2: You know, if I if I if Douke Tobin worked 1842 01:33:00,760 --> 01:33:05,040 Speaker 2: for me, and I go, hey man, the genostone thing 1843 01:33:05,200 --> 01:33:08,240 Speaker 2: just hasn't worked, Which that's a different discussion. Who else 1844 01:33:08,280 --> 01:33:10,519 Speaker 2: do we got it? The answer is, well, we can't 1845 01:33:10,520 --> 01:33:13,240 Speaker 2: play any of these other guys. Well, that's that's another 1846 01:33:13,320 --> 01:33:14,599 Speaker 2: damning indictment against you. 1847 01:33:15,360 --> 01:33:20,439 Speaker 23: Correct, it's a down one thousand percent. Look, if you 1848 01:33:20,560 --> 01:33:23,360 Speaker 23: thought it was okay to run Gino and Jordan back 1849 01:33:23,920 --> 01:33:27,679 Speaker 23: and say, a new coordinator with new ideas, who knows 1850 01:33:27,680 --> 01:33:30,080 Speaker 23: how to handle the safety position, he's gonna make this work. 1851 01:33:30,400 --> 01:33:32,880 Speaker 7: You still have to have a backup plan of some kind. 1852 01:33:33,120 --> 01:33:35,200 Speaker 7: You were so if you were banking on that, you 1853 01:33:35,200 --> 01:33:37,240 Speaker 7: were banking on those two guys getting do all seventeen 1854 01:33:37,280 --> 01:33:40,479 Speaker 7: games healthy. You can't bank on that ever in the NFL. 1855 01:33:40,520 --> 01:33:43,280 Speaker 7: And yet they did. And on top of that, Sandy, 1856 01:33:43,320 --> 01:33:45,320 Speaker 7: they've both been healthy, healthy, and they both stink. 1857 01:33:46,080 --> 01:33:49,840 Speaker 2: Has Trey Hendrickson played his last game as a Bengal man. 1858 01:33:49,840 --> 01:33:52,000 Speaker 7: I knew you were gonna ask that question to me. 1859 01:33:53,120 --> 01:33:56,960 Speaker 7: I'm gonna say no for this reason, he's gonna have 1860 01:33:57,080 --> 01:34:00,600 Speaker 7: to put up something. Whatever that time for incomes and 1861 01:34:00,640 --> 01:34:03,439 Speaker 7: it may be. Okay, here's a three game stretch Ick 1862 01:34:03,479 --> 01:34:06,200 Speaker 7: can excel in, which is the Dolphins, the Cardinals, and 1863 01:34:06,240 --> 01:34:08,800 Speaker 7: the Browns, because we got a chance to take a lead, 1864 01:34:08,960 --> 01:34:11,360 Speaker 7: and I'll be the closer and I'll close those three 1865 01:34:11,400 --> 01:34:13,760 Speaker 7: games and people will think I'm the Trey Hendrickson of 1866 01:34:14,840 --> 01:34:16,680 Speaker 7: you know, the last couple of seasons when I had 1867 01:34:16,680 --> 01:34:19,000 Speaker 7: seventeen and a half sacks. He has to do that mode. 1868 01:34:19,040 --> 01:34:20,800 Speaker 7: He's not gonna get paid. I mean, you're not going 1869 01:34:20,880 --> 01:34:23,880 Speaker 7: to do this on the income of Yeah, I know 1870 01:34:23,920 --> 01:34:26,439 Speaker 7: you probably made business decisions. I get it, but even 1871 01:34:26,479 --> 01:34:28,960 Speaker 7: when you played, you only had really one good game, 1872 01:34:29,080 --> 01:34:31,960 Speaker 7: and at thirty two years old, coming off supposedly a 1873 01:34:32,000 --> 01:34:34,439 Speaker 7: hip and back and telvis and whatever other issue business 1874 01:34:34,439 --> 01:34:37,759 Speaker 7: decision issues, you really gotta pay that guy, mo, I mean, Anesta, 1875 01:34:38,400 --> 01:34:41,479 Speaker 7: would you really pay that guy? No, I don't think 1876 01:34:41,479 --> 01:34:43,960 Speaker 7: any team will. And so he has to come back 1877 01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:47,479 Speaker 7: in some capacity at some level for at least, in 1878 01:34:47,520 --> 01:34:49,840 Speaker 7: my opinion, at least three games and maybe more than. 1879 01:34:49,880 --> 01:34:54,439 Speaker 7: I mean, maybe he legitimately is hurt to the point 1880 01:34:54,439 --> 01:34:56,080 Speaker 7: where he can't play, and he's hurt to the point 1881 01:34:56,080 --> 01:34:57,280 Speaker 7: where he's hurt. I don't know if it's hurt to 1882 01:34:57,280 --> 01:34:58,800 Speaker 7: the point where he can't play. But I never want 1883 01:34:58,840 --> 01:35:01,280 Speaker 7: to speak for a player's injury. I just just it's 1884 01:35:01,320 --> 01:35:06,599 Speaker 7: not fair. I'm not that person. But to your original question, 1885 01:35:06,680 --> 01:35:08,800 Speaker 7: I do think he plays because I do think he'll 1886 01:35:08,840 --> 01:35:11,360 Speaker 7: get healthy enough and whatever capaccity that is to go 1887 01:35:11,400 --> 01:35:13,360 Speaker 7: out and play, like I said, at least the final 1888 01:35:13,400 --> 01:35:15,559 Speaker 7: three games, to say, Okay, this is me, guys, you 1889 01:35:15,560 --> 01:35:17,599 Speaker 7: see me. I know I'm about to turn thirty two, 1890 01:35:17,680 --> 01:35:18,639 Speaker 7: but I can still do this. 1891 01:35:19,240 --> 01:35:21,360 Speaker 2: Do you get the sense that Jermaine Burton has been 1892 01:35:21,360 --> 01:35:24,080 Speaker 2: burning the candle at both ends to get ready to 1893 01:35:24,080 --> 01:35:26,559 Speaker 2: to get ready to replace Jamar Chase. I can't even 1894 01:35:26,600 --> 01:35:27,400 Speaker 2: say it without laughing. 1895 01:35:30,640 --> 01:35:32,960 Speaker 7: If you'd have just done the burning candies at both 1896 01:35:32,960 --> 01:35:37,439 Speaker 7: hands stop, I'd have said, sure he sure is. It's 1897 01:35:37,479 --> 01:35:39,439 Speaker 7: not surprising that he is. I would have taken you 1898 01:35:39,520 --> 01:35:41,600 Speaker 7: up on that part of it. Here's what's going to 1899 01:35:41,640 --> 01:35:45,080 Speaker 7: be so weird about Sunday, right, So they technically only 1900 01:35:45,080 --> 01:35:47,800 Speaker 7: have four receivers up at the moment. If you're going 1901 01:35:47,800 --> 01:35:52,680 Speaker 7: through the whole active roster situation, which is t andre Yoshibash, Tinsley, 1902 01:35:52,840 --> 01:35:55,240 Speaker 7: and Charlie Jones, and usually you keep a fist up, 1903 01:35:55,280 --> 01:35:58,120 Speaker 7: and you could argue if they decide to activate Mike Kasiki, 1904 01:35:58,160 --> 01:36:00,840 Speaker 7: which I do think they'll do, to carry four tight 1905 01:36:00,920 --> 01:36:03,439 Speaker 7: ends in the Sunday and still carry four wide receivers, 1906 01:36:03,439 --> 01:36:06,240 Speaker 7: and you know, we're good. The thing that'll be interesting 1907 01:36:06,560 --> 01:36:09,360 Speaker 7: is if they elevate like Kendrick Pryor from the practice 1908 01:36:09,400 --> 01:36:12,880 Speaker 7: squad on Saturday and he's active and Jermaine Burton isn't. 1909 01:36:12,920 --> 01:36:14,599 Speaker 7: I mean, at that point, what are we doing? 1910 01:36:16,680 --> 01:36:18,919 Speaker 2: Uh? Would any of us be surprised? 1911 01:36:18,920 --> 01:36:19,160 Speaker 7: Though? 1912 01:36:20,360 --> 01:36:21,000 Speaker 22: No? 1913 01:36:21,000 --> 01:36:24,000 Speaker 7: No, I literally, Gilly, I like that sounds like it's 1914 01:36:24,040 --> 01:36:25,760 Speaker 7: in play. If you're gonna carry five wide receivers like 1915 01:36:25,800 --> 01:36:27,800 Speaker 7: you normally do and you don't trust your mane in 1916 01:36:27,880 --> 01:36:30,400 Speaker 7: any way, shape or form, and you don't do you 1917 01:36:30,560 --> 01:36:32,599 Speaker 7: just go to heck with it. Man, we're gonna embarrass 1918 01:36:32,600 --> 01:36:34,519 Speaker 7: this guy even further until he gets his act together. 1919 01:36:34,600 --> 01:36:38,719 Speaker 7: And it is such a weird circumstance because they don't 1920 01:36:38,760 --> 01:36:41,280 Speaker 7: believe in him.

I appreciate you joining us. We're stoked 1973 01:39:27,080 --> 01:39:30,639 Speaker 2: for Sunday. Let's talk about round one. FC Cincinnati survives 1974 01:39:30,680 --> 01:39:33,519 Speaker 2: against Columbus. What did you learn about Pat Newton's team 1975 01:39:33,600 --> 01:39:34,360 Speaker 2: during that series? 1976 01:39:36,880 --> 01:39:39,800 Speaker 24: Yes, you know, he showed since he show a lot 1977 01:39:39,800 --> 01:39:43,679 Speaker 24: of character because Columbus played really well in the series. 1978 01:39:43,800 --> 01:39:46,600 Speaker 24: I think, uh, you know, after that second game, we 1979 01:39:46,680 --> 01:39:51,479 Speaker 24: all thought about the momentum Columbo got after scoring four 1980 01:39:51,520 --> 01:39:56,240 Speaker 24: goals and Cincinnati didn't look well most likely the first 1981 01:39:56,240 --> 01:39:59,080 Speaker 24: thirty minutes until they got down a man. 1982 01:39:59,200 --> 01:40:01,800 Speaker 8: But third game it was going to. 1983 01:40:01,760 --> 01:40:04,320 Speaker 24: Be very important, most likely at home with the people, 1984 01:40:04,760 --> 01:40:08,200 Speaker 24: and you know, they figured out the way to turn 1985 01:40:08,240 --> 01:40:11,719 Speaker 24: around a difficult result. So that it's a big show 1986 01:40:11,760 --> 01:40:14,160 Speaker 24: of character that a team that is looking for betting 1987 01:40:14,200 --> 01:40:16,840 Speaker 24: a championship, and that's the most important for me in 1988 01:40:16,920 --> 01:40:19,360 Speaker 24: terms of the first round what. 1989 01:40:19,400 --> 01:40:22,599 Speaker 2: I think of all time great Portland Timbers. You're at 1990 01:40:22,600 --> 01:40:25,599 Speaker 2: the top of the list, Evander might be right behind you. 1991 01:40:25,640 --> 01:40:27,519 Speaker 2: What has it been like watching him this season? 1992 01:40:28,960 --> 01:40:31,400 Speaker 24: Well, you know, Ivander is those is the kind of 1993 01:40:31,560 --> 01:40:34,280 Speaker 24: player that you always enjoy watch that he can make 1994 01:40:34,320 --> 01:40:38,639 Speaker 24: a play when the game is not the best and 1995 01:40:38,640 --> 01:40:41,960 Speaker 24: and because of his ability, because of his vision of 1996 01:40:42,040 --> 01:40:45,360 Speaker 24: the game. It's been a pleasure to to have the 1997 01:40:45,439 --> 01:40:49,400 Speaker 24: chance to watch him live with some broadcast in the game. 1998 01:40:49,439 --> 01:40:53,880 Speaker 24: Obviously here important the same, but it's that kind of player, 1999 01:40:54,000 --> 01:40:57,920 Speaker 24: so it's very enjoyable. I think he motivates in a 2000 01:40:57,920 --> 01:41:04,080 Speaker 24: different way when hin Miami comes and face Cincinnati. So 2001 01:41:04,120 --> 01:41:07,839 Speaker 24: I'm really excited to see him in this stage, uh 2002 01:41:07,960 --> 01:41:11,559 Speaker 24: in in the semi conference, semi final of the conference. 2003 01:41:11,760 --> 01:41:14,160 Speaker 24: So I think it's you know, it's been a pleasure. 2004 01:41:14,320 --> 01:41:17,240 Speaker 24: I I love to have those kind of players in 2005 01:41:17,400 --> 01:41:21,240 Speaker 24: MLS and uh and it's been it's been so fun 2006 01:41:21,240 --> 01:41:22,120 Speaker 24: and watch him play. 2007 01:41:22,240 --> 01:41:24,600 Speaker 2: In a normal year of Vander might be m v P, 2008 01:41:24,920 --> 01:41:28,519 Speaker 2: but there's a guy named Messi that that claims that honor. 2009 01:41:28,680 --> 01:41:31,439 Speaker 2: If you're pat Noon and it's about more than just him. 2010 01:41:31,479 --> 01:41:34,360 Speaker 2: When Miami comes to town, you've got a long list 2011 01:41:34,360 --> 01:41:36,160 Speaker 2: of things that you have to make sure don't happen 2012 01:41:36,160 --> 01:41:40,559 Speaker 2: in this match on Sunday. What's on that list but 2013 01:41:40,680 --> 01:41:43,840 Speaker 2: don't happen in for Cincinnati? For yeah, what what can't 2014 01:41:43,840 --> 01:41:44,840 Speaker 2: you let Miami do. 2015 01:41:47,080 --> 01:41:47,320 Speaker 6: Well? 2016 01:41:47,800 --> 01:41:50,519 Speaker 24: As you say, messy, You know, it's it's difficult to 2017 01:41:50,600 --> 01:41:55,960 Speaker 24: prepare something against messy, right. I think Cincinnati gotta be 2018 01:41:56,160 --> 01:42:00,040 Speaker 24: focused on on the doing their job, on being. 2019 01:41:59,840 --> 01:42:01,040 Speaker 6: A affected right. 2020 01:42:01,360 --> 01:42:04,880 Speaker 24: I think has great strikers and plus Evander as you 2021 01:42:04,920 --> 01:42:08,760 Speaker 24: say for me is you know, Mbi pee level. But 2022 01:42:09,240 --> 01:42:15,120 Speaker 24: it's what you can't allow h against miamis having those 2023 01:42:15,800 --> 01:42:19,520 Speaker 24: moments where you allow thee, the full, the whole team 2024 01:42:19,560 --> 01:42:22,400 Speaker 24: to be up in the field and comfortable with the ball. 2025 01:42:22,680 --> 01:42:22,880 Speaker 16: Right. 2026 01:42:22,960 --> 01:42:25,040 Speaker 6: Sometimes you always get deeper in the field. 2027 01:42:25,400 --> 01:42:28,400 Speaker 24: And obviously Miami because of the way they possess the ball, 2028 01:42:28,840 --> 01:42:32,080 Speaker 24: they take advantage, but of the possession and and the 2029 01:42:32,120 --> 01:42:35,840 Speaker 24: position on the field. But if they're getting there, Cincinnati 2030 01:42:36,439 --> 01:42:39,680 Speaker 24: cannot allow Miami to be comfortable with the ball, you 2031 01:42:39,720 --> 01:42:43,160 Speaker 24: know what I mean? Like against Nashville. Uh, as soon 2032 01:42:43,200 --> 01:42:45,960 Speaker 24: as Miami gets a good position in the field, higher 2033 01:42:46,000 --> 01:42:50,240 Speaker 24: in the field, uh, they get comfortable. And and that's 2034 01:42:50,280 --> 01:42:54,040 Speaker 24: an issue that's a big issue. Uh if if Cincinnati, 2035 01:42:54,640 --> 01:42:56,719 Speaker 24: if that ever happens in the first in the game, 2036 01:42:57,200 --> 01:43:00,880 Speaker 24: that is one game elimination, and Miami gets higher on 2037 01:43:00,920 --> 01:43:03,960 Speaker 24: the field, you can allow them to be comfortable because 2038 01:43:04,000 --> 01:43:06,320 Speaker 24: you already gets in the vall and you know from 2039 01:43:06,360 --> 01:43:09,679 Speaker 24: everywhere he can assist, he can assist someone, and same 2040 01:43:09,880 --> 01:43:13,760 Speaker 24: same for Messy and same same for Busquetes. So I 2041 01:43:13,800 --> 01:43:15,560 Speaker 24: think that's something that gotta be on the list of 2042 01:43:15,640 --> 01:43:17,519 Speaker 24: Cincinnatio and not doing stuff. 2043 01:43:17,680 --> 01:43:20,920 Speaker 2: It's it's gonna be an unbelievable atmosphere.

And then there's some stretches where, quite frankly, 2105 01:46:33,280 --> 01:46:36,280 Speaker 17: that stuff's not there. We're working through that so we 2106 01:46:36,320 --> 01:46:39,280 Speaker 17: can get more consistent. As we get more consistent, we're 2107 01:46:39,280 --> 01:46:41,479 Speaker 17: going to become a better and better basketball team as 2108 01:46:41,520 --> 01:46:44,000 Speaker 17: long as the work ethic and mindset within our locker 2109 01:46:44,040 --> 01:46:44,880 Speaker 17: room stays the same. 2110 01:46:44,920 --> 01:46:46,240 Speaker 22: And it's to this point, it's been good. 2111 01:46:46,400 --> 01:46:48,639 Speaker 3: I asked you about this on Sunday before the game. 2112 01:46:48,920 --> 01:46:51,240 Speaker 3: Dada A Thomas, a guy that you can lean on. 2113 01:46:51,320 --> 01:46:53,519 Speaker 3: You've got all these new guys you're trying to figure 2114 01:46:53,520 --> 01:46:56,720 Speaker 3: out who can do what. I think people forget Number one, 2115 01:46:56,840 --> 01:46:59,880 Speaker 3: how good data was, especially down the stretch last year. 2116 01:47:00,560 --> 01:47:03,320 Speaker 18: How awesome is it to have a guy like that. 2117 01:47:02,920 --> 01:47:04,920 Speaker 3: That you can lean on. You look at a game 2118 01:47:05,000 --> 01:47:07,519 Speaker 3: like Friday. This is a high end college basketball game. 2119 01:47:07,560 --> 01:47:09,360 Speaker 3: You want this to be a game in the second half. 2120 01:47:09,720 --> 01:47:11,160 Speaker 3: How nice is it to be able to lead on 2121 01:47:11,200 --> 01:47:12,840 Speaker 3: a guy like him? On both ends of the floor. 2122 01:47:13,880 --> 01:47:16,559 Speaker 17: Yeah, and I appreciate you recognizing how well he played 2123 01:47:16,560 --> 01:47:19,320 Speaker 17: at the end of last year, because you know, people 2124 01:47:20,080 --> 01:47:22,840 Speaker 17: tend to forget that he missed, you know, five six 2125 01:47:22,920 --> 01:47:26,240 Speaker 17: weeks to start the year last year, not just preseason, 2126 01:47:26,280 --> 01:47:29,080 Speaker 17: he missed games, and he was coming off of a 2127 01:47:29,120 --> 01:47:31,880 Speaker 17: foot injury. He had a setback, had to get shut 2128 01:47:31,920 --> 01:47:35,320 Speaker 17: down completely. It took him a while, not just to 2129 01:47:35,360 --> 01:47:37,720 Speaker 17: find his rhythm, but defined his confidence in his way 2130 01:47:37,720 --> 01:47:40,360 Speaker 17: within our team. I thought he finished the year like 2131 01:47:40,439 --> 01:47:42,800 Speaker 17: the data that we've always known, and then I thought 2132 01:47:42,800 --> 01:47:46,120 Speaker 17: it went into the offseason where he had a terrific offseason. 2133 01:47:46,439 --> 01:47:50,160 Speaker 17: He's had a great preseason. He's confident, he's matured, He's 2134 01:47:50,880 --> 01:47:53,200 Speaker 17: really evolved Mow into a leader in a lot of 2135 01:47:53,200 --> 01:47:57,280 Speaker 17: ways in our program. And he gets what putting that 2136 01:47:57,400 --> 01:48:00,799 Speaker 17: jersey on is all about, Like he understands hands it 2137 01:48:00,840 --> 01:48:02,840 Speaker 17: and then that matters for the rest of our guys. 2138 01:48:02,840 --> 01:48:06,800 Speaker 17: So I'm excited about his start, not surprised, And I 2139 01:48:06,840 --> 01:48:09,559 Speaker 17: think I don't think it's a fleeting thing. I think 2140 01:48:09,600 --> 01:48:11,400 Speaker 17: it's something that he's going to be able to sustain 2141 01:48:11,439 --> 01:48:12,080 Speaker 17: throughout the year. 2142 01:48:12,720 --> 01:48:14,679 Speaker 3: I mentioned this to you in the post game on Sunday, 2143 01:48:15,240 --> 01:48:18,800 Speaker 3: Kishan Tillery gave you a spark, and it's one game, 2144 01:48:19,120 --> 01:48:21,439 Speaker 3: It's November. He has a lot of growing to do. 2145 01:48:21,560 --> 01:48:24,040 Speaker 3: But it felt to me like, maybe you could see 2146 01:48:24,040 --> 01:48:26,080 Speaker 3: the light bulb come on just a little bit. Would 2147 01:48:26,120 --> 01:48:27,760 Speaker 3: that be a fair way of putting it. 2148 01:48:28,160 --> 01:48:29,880 Speaker 17: I think if I was in your shoes, it's a 2149 01:48:29,880 --> 01:48:31,920 Speaker 17: fair way to put it, because you hadn't got to 2150 01:48:31,960 --> 01:48:35,400 Speaker 17: see him all through the summer and the fall. But 2151 01:48:35,560 --> 01:48:39,240 Speaker 17: if you take the games that he's played, I understand 2152 01:48:39,240 --> 01:48:42,120 Speaker 17: that comment. I think from my perspective, I've seen the 2153 01:48:42,200 --> 01:48:43,960 Speaker 17: light bulb come home all the time, and I see 2154 01:48:43,960 --> 01:48:47,280 Speaker 17: it go off sometimes like any freshman point guard, right, 2155 01:48:47,360 --> 01:48:52,320 Speaker 17: And I think all of those things, whether they're really 2156 01:48:52,320 --> 01:48:54,439 Speaker 17: good moments, and he had some really good moments when. 2157 01:48:54,280 --> 01:48:54,920 Speaker 22: We had an exhibition. 2158 01:48:54,960 --> 01:48:56,599 Speaker 17: He gets a Michigan he thought he had some great 2159 01:48:56,640 --> 01:48:59,599 Speaker 17: moments the other night, or some of these negative moments 2160 01:48:59,640 --> 01:49:03,120 Speaker 17: that could be frustrating for a fan, a teammate or 2161 01:49:03,280 --> 01:49:06,960 Speaker 17: the head coach, right, those are actually really good for 2162 01:49:06,960 --> 01:49:09,840 Speaker 17: his growth. We need we need him to be ready 2163 01:49:09,880 --> 01:49:12,800 Speaker 17: to play in Big twelve games. He's capable of being 2164 01:49:12,800 --> 01:49:14,720 Speaker 17: an impact player as a freshman. 2165 01:49:14,360 --> 01:49:16,519 Speaker 22: In the Big twelve. I believe he will be. 2166 01:49:17,080 --> 01:49:19,240 Speaker 17: So these ups and downs, even though they may be 2167 01:49:19,280 --> 01:49:22,240 Speaker 17: frustrating times for all of us and him included, they're 2168 01:49:22,320 --> 01:49:22,959 Speaker 17: very important. 2169 01:49:23,320 --> 01:49:25,880 Speaker 22: All that said, he's a really good player. 2170 01:49:26,320 --> 01:49:29,519 Speaker 17: He fits here, he fits Cincinnati, and he's going to 2171 01:49:29,560 --> 01:49:30,840 Speaker 17: have an important role this year. 2172 01:49:32,360 --> 01:49:34,080 Speaker 3: Louisvill's a little bit different than the last time you 2173 01:49:34,120 --> 01:49:36,799 Speaker 3: played him, you know, and I watch him against Kentucky, 2174 01:49:36,800 --> 01:49:40,200 Speaker 3: they scored ninety six. That's their lowest point total this season. 2175 01:49:40,240 --> 01:49:43,639 Speaker 3: Michale Brown's a load. We saw Ryan Conwell up close 2176 01:49:43,720 --> 01:49:46,760 Speaker 3: last year. Where do you even start with that team? 2177 01:49:47,160 --> 01:49:49,280 Speaker 17: Yeah, somebody said that to me, he said, you know, 2178 01:49:49,360 --> 01:49:51,479 Speaker 17: Louisville scored one hundred and three out of the last 2179 01:49:51,800 --> 01:49:52,759 Speaker 17: four games they played. 2180 01:49:52,760 --> 01:49:54,200 Speaker 22: I said, yeah, and the one time they didn't, they 2181 01:49:54,200 --> 01:49:55,080 Speaker 22: scored ninety six. 2182 01:49:55,120 --> 01:49:55,360 Speaker 12: You know. 2183 01:49:56,520 --> 01:50:01,000 Speaker 17: No, it's uh, there's a reason why people are picking 2184 01:50:01,040 --> 01:50:02,560 Speaker 17: them to win the National championship. 2185 01:50:03,360 --> 01:50:05,479 Speaker 22: And people were saying that before they even played the game. 2186 01:50:06,320 --> 01:50:08,760 Speaker 17: And so you know, when you're playing a team that 2187 01:50:08,880 --> 01:50:13,519 Speaker 17: has that type of expectation, there's reasons for it. They're 2188 01:50:14,320 --> 01:50:18,800 Speaker 17: they're terrifically dynamic offensively. Uh, you know, whether it's in 2189 01:50:18,840 --> 01:50:22,719 Speaker 17: their transition game, whether it's in their half court execution. Uh, 2190 01:50:23,400 --> 01:50:26,880 Speaker 17: it seems like they have four guys that would be 2191 01:50:26,920 --> 01:50:29,519 Speaker 17: the primary and some of them already have been the 2192 01:50:29,680 --> 01:50:32,800 Speaker 17: number one offensive weapon on any team they play on 2193 01:50:32,880 --> 01:50:33,439 Speaker 17: in college. 2194 01:50:33,960 --> 01:50:36,400 Speaker 22: But there's four of them that are all guards on 2195 01:50:36,479 --> 01:50:36,960 Speaker 22: their team. 2196 01:50:37,120 --> 01:50:40,400 Speaker 17: And you know, I say that with to compliment the 2197 01:50:40,479 --> 01:50:44,160 Speaker 17: job they've done putting that group together. So yeah, that's 2198 01:50:44,560 --> 01:50:47,760 Speaker 17: that's what happens when you play against teams that you know, 2199 01:50:47,920 --> 01:50:50,479 Speaker 17: or the six ranked team in the country, they present challenges. 2200 01:50:50,520 --> 01:50:53,400 Speaker 17: But what a great opportunity for us. I like our 2201 01:50:53,400 --> 01:50:55,360 Speaker 17: guys too. I like some of the things we can 2202 01:50:55,400 --> 01:50:58,160 Speaker 17: do too, and I'm excited for the opportunity for the 2203 01:50:58,200 --> 01:51:00,000 Speaker 17: ball to go up against you know, one of the 2204 01:51:00,040 --> 01:51:01,640 Speaker 17: best teams in college basketball right now. 2205 01:51:01,680 --> 01:51:05,320 Speaker 3: All right, As a longtime UC fan, this is the 2206 01:51:05,360 --> 01:51:07,360 Speaker 3: game that I wish we had every single year. 2207 01:51:07,439 --> 01:51:10,320 Speaker 2: So take me how a game like this comes together. 2208 01:51:11,920 --> 01:51:13,280 Speaker 2: You know, we're just looking. 2209 01:51:13,080 --> 01:51:18,280 Speaker 17: For really quality games in our non conference that number 2210 01:51:18,320 --> 01:51:21,840 Speaker 17: one prepares for the Big twelve. Number two give us 2211 01:51:21,880 --> 01:51:26,200 Speaker 17: the right opportunity to build a resume for the selection day, 2212 01:51:26,520 --> 01:51:31,120 Speaker 17: and then you know three are exciting. 2213 01:51:30,920 --> 01:51:31,759 Speaker 22: And draw interest. 2214 01:51:32,720 --> 01:51:35,080 Speaker 17: And you know, this game came about because it was 2215 01:51:35,120 --> 01:51:38,960 Speaker 17: willingness on both sides, which was the first step, and 2216 01:51:39,600 --> 01:51:41,519 Speaker 17: then there was a way to make it happen. And 2217 01:51:42,000 --> 01:51:45,360 Speaker 17: so again, I love games like this for all those reasons. 2218 01:51:45,720 --> 01:51:48,519 Speaker 17: I certainly love that our fans get to see this 2219 01:51:48,640 --> 01:51:51,439 Speaker 17: rivalry again, and I'm excited to experience it for the 2220 01:51:51,439 --> 01:51:54,080 Speaker 17: first time since I've been at Cincinnati. But I am 2221 01:51:54,120 --> 01:51:57,000 Speaker 17: excited that Louisville and Cincinnati are playing basketball again. 2222 01:51:57,200 --> 01:51:59,360 Speaker 3: All Right, one more, Pat Kelsey. You talked about him, 2223 01:51:59,439 --> 01:52:01,040 Speaker 3: a guy that you known for a very long time, 2224 01:52:01,080 --> 01:52:04,200 Speaker 3: a guy you've coached against. He's obviously coming home.
