They led Seaton Hall forty 72 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 3: one to thirty at half, and they were outscored fifty 73 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 3: six to twenty seven in the second half.

T Higgins Austin 78 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 3: is heading to the Pro Bowl. Let's go T T Higgins. 79 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 3: Everybody all together now, T congratulations T Higgins. As you 80 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 3: put it before the show, We're going to go catch 81 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 3: some passes from Shador Sanders. 82 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 4: First team All good guy. T Higgins one of my 83 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 4: all time favorite Bengals, and you know, a worthy replacement. 84 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 4: Some people are not worthy replacements when it comes to 85 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 4: the Pro Bowl. T Higgins is happy for him to 86 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 4: get the chance to go out there with Jamar Chase 87 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 4: and experience the Pro Bowl games. They've switched it up 88 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 4: a little bit this year. It is now the week 89 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 4: of the Super Bowl instead of like this weekend and 90 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 4: that whole thing. It's now like a series of events 91 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 4: leading up to the Super Bowl, which makes sense. I 92 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 4: think part of that is to increase participation because a 93 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 4: lot of people to send on the Super Bowl city 94 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,679 Speaker 4: to do media and radio row and promote their products 95 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 4: and all that. So looking forward to seeing the T 96 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 4: and Jamar content that comes from the Pro Bowl games 97 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 4: in Santa Clara or San Jose or San Francisco or 98 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 4: wherever the hell they are. 99 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, what's your interest level in the Pro Bowl games themselves? 100 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 4: I'm always interested in Okay, And I know it's not 101 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 4: a game, and I know that it doesn't really matter 102 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 4: all that much, but I do think it's a peak 103 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 4: behind the curtain a little bit about players that I 104 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 4: don't know that much about. You know, there there might 105 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 4: be a player who is a first time Pro Bowl 106 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 4: or a guy who had a really good season, and 107 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 4: you just get to learn about those players. 108 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 5: I like that. 109 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 4: I like learning about those players. I like to see 110 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 4: them in an environment that's not you know, this NFL 111 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 4: game where competition is, you know, the most important thing, 112 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 4: and everyone's all buttoned up. I like to see them loose. 113 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 4: I like to see their personalities. And I think the 114 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 4: NFL has done a good job like having fun with it. 115 00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 4: They don't take it too seriously any this, Yeah, and 116 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 4: I can appreciate that, and so I like watching it. 117 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 4: A lot of people will dump on the Pro Bowl 118 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 4: or the Pro Bowl games and say how useless it is, 119 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 4: and they'll also talk about how they don't watch it. Well, 120 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 4: how do you know if you don't watch it. I 121 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 4: hear this argument all the time with the NBA because oh, 122 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 4: they don't play any defense in the NBA. Oh, that 123 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 4: league's unwatchable. Okay, when's the last time you watched. Yeah, 124 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 4: a lot of people will say that they don't watch 125 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 4: the league. There's a lot of good basketball at the 126 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 4: NBA every night. 127 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 3: I think it's just something to be said though, And 128 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,480 Speaker 3: again we credit the NFL a lot, but kind of 129 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 3: leaning into it and say, look, we know, we know 130 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 3: the product and the effort is not going to be 131 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 3: as high, so let's lean into what it can be 132 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 3: and trying to make it fun. 133 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 4: It's cool to see him play dodgeball. Yes, it's cool 134 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,679 Speaker 4: to see him do the different competitions, and some stuff 135 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 4: that the NFL has tried has worked, and some stuff 136 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 4: certainly hasn't. But they understand, Hey, let's just get these 137 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 4: guys out in front of young kids and have them 138 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 4: sign autographs and show their personalities and just compete in 139 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 4: some games and just at the same time honored them 140 00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 4: for having a really good season. 141 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 6: Well of them. 142 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, speaking up, speaking of the NBA last night, it 143 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 3: very well could be the last trip to Cleveland for 144 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:11,240 Speaker 3: Lebron James as the player. 145 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, I watched a little bit now. 146 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 3: He he essentially didn't say it would be, but he 147 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 3: also didn't say it was. He was very emotional pregame. 148 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 3: They did a highlight video for him during the game. 149 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 3: But as a visiting player to Cleveland, Austin, it was 150 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 3: the worst performance for Lebron James and the worst loss 151 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 3: for Lebron James as a visiting player. The Calves beat 152 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 3: the Lakers. 153 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 4: Ninety nine. Yeah, it was a prety point victory. 154 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 5: It was a bit of a beating. 155 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 4: There was a weird injury with Luka Donciks where he 156 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 4: kind of fell his foot was between the the I 157 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 4: guess the podium. The floor is kind of raised up 158 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 4: off the floor in Cleveland for some reason, and Luca 159 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 4: also for some reason, just kept hopping on one foot 160 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 4: backwards and eventually like fell off and thought he hurt himself. 161 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 4: But yeah, he was able to come back in the game, 162 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 4: but they missed him for a chunk and Cleveland shot 163 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 4: lights out for a while. 164 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, Cleveland outscored the Lakers forty two to twenty two 165 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 3: in the third quarter alone. Lebron three for ten from 166 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 3: the field, zero for three beyond the three point line. 167 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 3: He finished with just eleven points, three rebounds, and five 168 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 3: assists to go along with six turnovers. 169 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 4: Last night, in what very. 170 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 3: Well could be his final trip to Cleveland in the NBA, 171 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 3: he almost got out scored Austin by his son Bronnie 172 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:41,320 Speaker 3: James incredible eight minute eight points for Bronni couple threes. So, uh, 173 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:46,680 Speaker 3: not the trip to Cleveland, I'm sure Lebron wanted to have. 174 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 3: But uh, it's I hate saying it because as you 175 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,080 Speaker 3: get older you feel it as well. But you hear 176 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 3: that the Saint all the time, that Father Time is undefeated. 177 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 3: It feels like, for the first time watching him, and 178 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 3: that's probably the I've watched of a Lakers game, you 179 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 3: could just tell he's just older. 180 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, Like, it just doesn't look the same on the court. 181 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,319 Speaker 4: He had that issue with siatica at the beginning of 182 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 4: the year, and apparently since then he's like stopped drinking 183 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 4: alcohol and he's lost a little bit of weight, and 184 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 4: he is just trying to manage his body and he's 185 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 4: legendary for the way he's managed a shoddy all these years. 186 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 4: It just as you said, sometimes it gets to a 187 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 4: point where you've done as much as you can do 188 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 4: and you don't know if it's going to leave you 189 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 4: or not. And Lebron obviously is still a good NBA player, 190 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 4: but there are gonna be those times where he does 191 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 4: look human. Yep, tell you what was fun? 192 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 3: Got home from the game last night at fifth third, 193 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 3: got home, turned on Spurs Rockets. Yeah, any chance to 194 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:49,839 Speaker 3: watch Victor wembin Yama. Unbelievable. Wimby's a beast. Twenty eight 195 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:51,959 Speaker 3: points and sixteen boards to go along with five blocks 196 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 3: last night and. 197 00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 4: Yeh, thirteen points in the fourth quarter. Yep, as did 198 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 4: the entire Rockets team. Yeah, not good. 199 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 3: Wimby not good. The Bulls last night either. I don't 200 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 3: want to talk a bad loss to a bad Indiana 201 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 3: Pacers team, but the NBA is But. 202 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 4: If you ask the Bulls, they're encouraged by the way 203 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 4: they've been playing, which they're gonna be sure going trading 204 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 4: for Giannis. Yeah, go get them. 205 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 3: Okay, what do you make of the Sean Payton bo 206 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 3: Nick situation that's unfolding? 207 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 4: The more I learn about Sean Payton, the less I 208 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 4: like him. Yeah, I think that's fair. It's very strange. 209 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 4: So bow Knicks has this ankle injury on like the 210 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 4: second to last play of the AFC Championship game. They 211 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 4: win the game. It's like an emotional moment. And I 212 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 4: remember thinking at the time when Sean Payton had had 213 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 4: the press conference immediately following the game, and it was 214 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 4: the divisional round game immediately following the game, and then 215 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 4: he comes back a little bit later and has a 216 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 4: different press conference, and I thought that was really weird. 217 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 4: I thought it was like, Okay, what are they trying 218 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 4: to get ahead of? Why are they keeping Why wouldn't 219 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 4: they try to keep it a secret? Why wouldn't they 220 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 4: just you know, try to make the Patriots think that 221 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 4: bo Nix is gonna play like why do this? Yep? 222 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 4: And I just thought the whole thing was really weird. 223 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 4: Come to find out, bo Nicks, according to Sean Payton, 224 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 4: has had multiple surgeries on his ankle. There's kind of 225 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 4: is this belief that it's a chronic thing, Yeah, predisposed, 226 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 4: which is weird. And Sean said something about I never 227 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 4: would have drafted him if I known about this. And 228 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 4: then bo Nix yesterday, I think, goes on a radio 229 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 4: station in Denver. I was like, Sean shouldn't be talking 230 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 4: about my surgeries, yeah, and what I have or haven't 231 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 4: had done and he doesn't know. There's been like a 232 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 4: budding of the heads of those two guys a couple times. 233 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 4: I know bo Nicks when he first got in the 234 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 4: league spent a week with Drew Brees basically like teach 235 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 4: me about Sean Payton, yep, and how to work with 236 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 4: this guy. You might remember the Russell Wilson situation. Russell 237 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 4: Wilson hates his guts. Those two guys butted heads quite 238 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 4: a bit, and Russ a lot of the public image, 239 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 4: the public distrust went on the Russell Wilson side of things. 240 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 4: But I think people are starting to come back around, says, 241 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 4: maybe Sean Payton is just kind of a tough guy 242 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 4: to work with and work for and work around. This 243 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 4: is a lot of drama, and I give bow Nick's 244 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 4: credit for not being afraid to stand up for himself. 245 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you're you're head coach who again went 246 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 3: forward on fourth down instead of going up two scores, 247 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 3: then fired the OC wide receiver coaching dB coach then 248 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 3: takes the podium and says, well, you know, kind of 249 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 3: pre predisposed injury, he was gonna have to have surgery regardless, 250 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 3: and went into all these surgeries he's had, and to 251 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 3: your point, you know, I thought bow Nicks had it. Well, 252 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 3: bow Knicks really said, I don't think he should share 253 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 3: how many surgeries I've had in the past, to be 254 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 3: honest with you. 255 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, So again, I it is. 256 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 3: It's it's just a weird situation, as many things are, 257 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,119 Speaker 3: as it revolves around Sean Payton. 258 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,559 Speaker 4: And I I don't know if it's a way of 259 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 4: like defending himself around some of the play calling that 260 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 4: happened in that game. I don't know if it's a 261 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 4: way of getting out in front of a potential contract 262 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 4: extension that bow Knicks is gonna want, and how much 263 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 4: that could drive the price down if he's got a 264 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 4: chronic ankle injury. And obviously, if you're bow Knicks, you 265 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 4: don't want people knowing that you know and guys going 266 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 4: after it or it being known issue. And there's just 267 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 4: a lot that we don't know, and I don't think 268 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 4: Sean Payton handled it very well. 269 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 3: Completely completely agree. Before we get our first break in 270 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 3: and I want to talk about coaching in the National 271 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 3: Football League, And there was an article from Bill Barnwell 272 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 3: today that talks essentially about the coaches have been hired 273 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 3: in the league since twenty twenty one, and to me, 274 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 3: it shines a little bit of a light often because 275 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 3: of what's going on here in Cincinnati, and I think 276 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 3: everyone has been kind of an agreement that if this 277 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,199 Speaker 3: goes south next year, it's probably the end of Zach 278 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 3: Taylor in Cincinnati, And with that you always think of, well, 279 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 3: the grass is always greener. On the other side, I 280 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 3: want to highlight some of these coaching hires in the 281 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 3: NFL since twenty twenty one, because it's not always the 282 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 3: grass is greener on the other side. So we'll do 283 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 3: that in just a few moments. I also, have you 284 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 3: figured out the car situation yet? I got there's a 285 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 3: car situation. 286 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 4: This morning. 287 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 3: I got car issues, which is nothing new if you've 288 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 3: listened to this show before. 289 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 4: Between Austin and I, yeah, we've had some issues in 290 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 4: the past. It was strange. Number one, let me just 291 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 4: say this. A couple months ago. I always go to 292 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 4: the Valvelene instant oil get my oil changed, and they 293 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 4: do like an inspection and they check everything, and they 294 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 4: tested my battery and they're like, hey, your battery is 295 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 4: trending in the wrong direction. You might want to consider 296 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 4: getting this replaced. I said, you know what, I'm going 297 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 4: to wait and see if I can make it through 298 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 4: the winter. And every moment and every day since then, 299 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 4: I've gone out to start my car, thinking is today 300 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 4: going to be the day that it doesn't start? Especially 301 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 4: in this cold and now when it gets cold, I 302 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 4: think about that even more so. 303 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 5: This morning. 304 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 4: I start the ignition and it takes a second, but 305 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 4: the car comes on. Fantastic, wonderful, sensational. I pull out. 306 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 4: Everything's good. I come down the street. I stop at 307 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 4: a local coffee establishment, and I pull into the parking 308 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 4: spot at the coffee establishment and the electric power steering 309 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 4: light comes on, starts flashing at me. It feels a 310 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 4: little awkward as I'm pulling into the parking spot. Oh boy, 311 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, I don't like that. But it stopped 312 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 4: after ten seconds maybe and it was totally fine. And 313 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 4: so I go in and I get at my coffee 314 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 4: and I come back out. I pull out, I get 315 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 4: back on the road. Everything's totally fine, no issues, like, Okay, 316 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,200 Speaker 4: maybe it's just a little messed up whatever. Pull into 317 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 4: the parking garage here, and I'm pulling in very slowly 318 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 4: to pull into the parking spot. Starts doing it again. 319 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 4: Becomes a little bit difficult to turn, and it starts 320 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 4: flashing and keeps flashing, and so I finally turn the 321 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 4: thing off, and we'll see what happens when I get back. 322 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 4: So I assume it's connected to the battery, because I 323 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 4: believe the battery is getting low, and obviously, with the 324 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 4: cold and everything, I need a new oil change. I 325 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 4: know that the oil has nothing to do with the 326 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 4: electric power steering, but I might as well get the 327 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 4: battery changed. And I'm hoping that it's just the battery 328 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 4: that affects the other stuff, and it's not the electric 329 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 4: power steering. And the other thing was, you know, I 330 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 4: had the defrost on cranked up because it's cold, and 331 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 4: it would like fluctuate, it would go like I had 332 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 4: it cranked all the way up to number four on mine. 333 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 4: I don't know, and then we go, oh, they kept 334 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 4: going up and up and down, back and forth. I 335 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 4: don't know anything about cars. So if any got anybody 336 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 4: wants to provide me some context or some. 337 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 5: Well it's direction. 338 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 3: It's hard because as these as the cars become new, 339 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 3: it like that the electrical systems are so much more 340 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 3: advanced as they go. Yeah, like they they just keep 341 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 3: getting more advanced. And on one end it's a luxury. 342 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 3: On the other end, it can be a hassle. We 343 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 3: we recently got a bit, Jake Sweeney. We got a 344 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 3: bigger car for Mayor to have all the kids with, 345 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 3: because you see the size of these car seats nowadays, 346 00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 3: you better have a big enough back seat to be 347 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 3: able to fit three car seats back there. And within 348 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 3: like a week, the heated seats weren't working, the screen 349 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 3: was locking up, and sure enough, call my guys. They 350 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 3: bring it right in and like all it just needs 351 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 3: like a reboot, Like these electrical systems are insane now 352 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,000 Speaker 3: in these cars, who knows what's next? 353 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 4: Will they fly? Maybe one day they drive for us, 354 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 4: Maybe one day they will. 355 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 3: Like that was a big thing when I was a kid, 356 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,879 Speaker 3: that they were going to be flying cars into their future. Sure, 357 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 3: I wonder what other things were around that was supposed 358 00:17:56,440 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 3: to happen that never did. But I specifically remember thinking, like, man, 359 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 3: I'm in the sweet spot because when I get older, 360 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,880 Speaker 3: I'm going to be flying in cars. Never panned out, 361 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:10,200 Speaker 3: that might it might still happen. I'm almost forty. I 362 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 3: don't think I'm gonna see flying cars. 363 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 4: You might, Okay, you never know. We'll see the other 364 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:17,239 Speaker 4: thing too.

So we apologize for that. We'll always 372 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 4: ask you to go to the iHeartRadio app. That might 373 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 4: be the best. I know sometimes for people with ALEXA 374 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 4: that's not always the easiest way, but working on it 375 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 4: and apologize. 376 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 3: There we go.

It is an electric power steering system. At 417 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,199 Speaker 4: least that's what the Internet tells me. Again, I do 418 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 4: not pretend to be an expert. 419 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 5: I am not. 420 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,160 Speaker 3: That's why I'm asking you people for help.

We'll get back to the NFL in 429 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 4: just a moment. But Mike in Cincinnati may be able 430 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 4: to help as well. What's up, Mike? 431 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 5: What do you got? 432 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 4: Mike? 433 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 11: Hey, guys, you know I've been listening and I hear 434 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,120 Speaker 11: your problem. I think I had something similar last couple 435 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,400 Speaker 11: of years. And since your power is going out once 436 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:53,360 Speaker 11: you're already driving, I think there's a good chance that 437 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 11: it could be your alternator. Because your alternator charges your batteries. 438 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,040 Speaker 11: So even if your battery is dead loaded close to that, 439 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 11: it should be charged. But why you're driving, you should 440 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:07,160 Speaker 11: charge it up a little more. And if you want, 441 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 11: I have a really great mechanic here Cincinnati. I probablyhouldn't 442 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 11: say him on the air, but if you want to 443 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 11: hold and I'll tell you about. 444 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 4: Him, Okay, if you want, Yeah, that'd be great. 445 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 5: Mike. Thank you, thank you. 446 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 4: Let's add alternator to the list alternators issue. Those could 447 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 4: be a little pricey. Yeah, don't tell me to start 448 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 4: getting into the alternator. I want to talk about it, Mike. 449 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 4: What's up? 450 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 12: Yeah, Austin, I did. That's that's really weird on that Hyundai, 451 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,920 Speaker 12: that it's got an electric power steering thing. That's really weird. 452 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 5: Yeah. 453 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 4: I just figured that out because you told me over 454 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:42,439 Speaker 4: the break too about the steering fluid, and then I 455 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 4: started looking it up and they say it doesn't have it. 456 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,479 Speaker 12: I've never seen a car without a power cud anyway. 457 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 12: Uh yeah, but it could be your alternator. Alternator is 458 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 12: not that bad, Austin. That's only a couple hundred bucks. 459 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 13: Okay, all right, well you know that. 460 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 12: I don't know. Maybe now it might be three hundred 461 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 12: with the installation. But I'm not going to kill you. 462 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 12: But brother, you got to get another car. 463 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 6: I know. 464 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 5: I know. 465 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 4: I said this the other day. That's what that's what 466 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 4: I'm trying to avoid. I don't want a car payment, 467 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:12,879 Speaker 4: does it not be? 468 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:13,160 Speaker 14: Really? 469 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,400 Speaker 12: You don't want all yeah, but you don't want all 470 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 12: this stress either. 471 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 5: I get it. 472 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 4: It's been a great car for me, but I know 473 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 4: that I'm like in the range where it's about to explode. 474 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 12: Yeah, it's like. 475 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,360 Speaker 4: There's like an issue with the engine once you get 476 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 4: past one hundred thousand miles like that that they just 477 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 4: the engines crap out all the time, apparently with these cars. 478 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:37,719 Speaker 4: I know, I'm just in the range.

Okay, But I wanted to make 506 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 14: a Bill Belichick comments from the conversation yesterday. I think 507 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 14: I think he was a good coach that made a 508 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:02,679 Speaker 14: great decision when Drew blessed Her got hurt and he 509 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 14: decided to stick with Tom Brady and not get Drew 510 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:09,639 Speaker 14: Blesd so his job back that ended up being a 511 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 14: great decision. So I would love to hear an interview 512 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 14: where someone would ask him, like, what did you see 513 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 14: in Tom Brady that you didn't see and Drew bleutd. 514 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 14: So I would like to know the answer to this. 515 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,360 Speaker 14: But I think he was a good coach that made 516 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:29,679 Speaker 14: a great decision that ultimately made him look like a 517 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:34,399 Speaker 14: great coach. But I think the cheating issue with the 518 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 14: spygate and all that, I think I think he'll get 519 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 14: in the Hall of Fame, but I think that'll hold 520 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:40,879 Speaker 14: it up. 521 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 4: Yeah, No, that's fair. That's fair. 522 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah, so yeah, so that that was my only comment. 523 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 14: I wanted to call in and make a point about that. 524 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 14: But you know, I'll be back when when the reds uh, 525 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 14: when the season gets closed. I'm I'm still looking for 526 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 14: a thirty home runs ninety RB eyes. I ain't even 527 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,439 Speaker 14: got to have a hundred I won't.

I need those. We're 531 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 14: by states. 532 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 4: It ain't a lot. We're not asking for a lot here. 533 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah, that's all I'm asking for. Give me, give 534 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:22,919 Speaker 14: me twenty five to thirty home wrong ninety two one 535 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 14: hundred RBIs in the middle of the lineup, and then 536 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 14: I'll be okay, that's it and then we'll go from there. 537 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 4: Well, so it makes sense to me, Mar, Mar, thank 538 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 4: you man. 539 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,120 Speaker 14: I appreciate it, all right. 540 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 5: You know, I often. 541 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 3: I think it's it's the old saying, you know that 542 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 3: a lot of coaches kind of live by that. You 543 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 3: you can't lose your starting job due to injury, you know, 544 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 3: And and I know that saying sticks true for a lot. 545 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 3: But think what you want about Bill Belichick. Bloodshot, got healthy, 546 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 3: He's still stuck with Tom Brady, regardless of how Brady 547 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 3: got the job. And sure, I think a lot of 548 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,679 Speaker 3: the rest is obviously history. Yeah, I remember, I was. 549 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 3: I just seen a post earlier this week about going 550 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 3: into that first Super Bowl. Bledsoe had gotten healthy again, 551 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,200 Speaker 3: and there was like a debate on who should be 552 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 3: the quarterback for the Patriots. Should it be Bledsoe, should 553 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:16,400 Speaker 3: it be Brady? And a lot of people said, tom 554 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 3: Brady's not proving it, you know, Drew Bledsoe can be 555 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:22,119 Speaker 3: the guy. And come to find out, Belichick rode the 556 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 3: hot hand and wrote it for the next twenty years. 557 00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 4: I'll say that the rest of that is history. 558 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, so all right. 559 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 4: You know we talk about the topic spider in this business. Yes, 560 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:34,439 Speaker 4: where you put something in the middle and then you 561 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,919 Speaker 4: know all the difference styles around it that you can 562 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 4: talk about with the topic. This is what I feared 563 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 4: with bringing up my car situation because it might be 564 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 4: you know, the power steering pump. Yeah, it might be 565 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 4: a module, It could be the battery, it could be 566 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:51,919 Speaker 4: the alternator. This is what scares me. 567 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, and then you take it to a you take 568 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 3: it somewhere and they tell you it's all those things. Yeah, exactly, 569 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,680 Speaker 3: and you need to fix all that before you drive 570 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 3: out of that place. In That's one of my weakest points. 571 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 3: It's just telling people no. 572 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 4: I'm just telling them no. It's just like I don't 573 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:11,400 Speaker 4: know the difference. Yeah, I guess do that. That sounds right, Okay, 574 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 4: I believe you. I just sign this. Yeah. 575 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 5: Do you need anything account guys? 576 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 4: Do you guys take this credit card? 577 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:18,760 Speaker 5: Unbelievable. 578 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 3: I'll just pay this back over the next ten years. Unbelievable. 579 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 3: We'll take a break. 580 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 4: Can't be getting a car payment. 581 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:25,640 Speaker 5: We've got doing that. 582 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 3: We've got more phone calls, and I want to get 583 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,119 Speaker 3: to some NFL. We'll get to college basketball. At the 584 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 3: top of our number two your talkbacks Keith and nickoson 585 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,480 Speaker 3: Rick Uccino and so much more between now and three 586 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 3: o'clock on the Home of the Bengals, ESPN fifteen thirty 587 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 3: Cincinnati Sports Station. Welcome back sincey three sixty ESPN fifteen 588 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 3: thirty Cincinnati Sports Station thanks to Skyline Chilli. Anytime you're 589 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 3: feeling good and hungry, it's skyline a time, you. 590 00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 4: Know, I uh. 591 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,719 Speaker 3: I think we get caught a lot of times in 592 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 3: coaching searches and the thought of replacing a coach with 593 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 3: the idea that it's just always going to be better 594 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 3: on the other side. And I think locally that is 595 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 3: very pertinent right now with a lot of things. There 596 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 3: are a lot of people that aren't comfortable with Wes 597 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 3: Miller right now, or Scott Saderfield or Zach Taylor. I 598 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 3: think this goes at a lot of different levels. And 599 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 3: the belief is, well, you have Joe Burrow, the line 600 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 3: out the door will will be very long for coaching candidates, 601 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 3: and I think that would be true Austin. But I 602 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 3: think if you look how the Buffalo job played out, 603 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 3: maybe you're a little more cautious of that. You would 604 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 3: think many head coaches would say, oh, I can coach 605 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 3: Josh Allen, that's the best job, and it turns out 606 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 3: they have to promote from within a guy in Joe Brady. 607 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 3: I'm not saying we know what Joe Brady's gonna be, 608 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 3: but I think people and we just assume a lot 609 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 3: of times, oh, that that's the job right there, You're 610 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 3: gonna get Joe Burrow. Everyone wants that job. There's no 611 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 3: way you could mess it up. There's no way you 612 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 3: could be in a worse situation. But the reality is 613 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 3: at times that does happen. I mean, look, who knows 614 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 3: what's gonna happen with this coaching carousel. Jesse Minter is 615 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 3: an unknown. The Pittsburgh fans, I know, we're not happy 616 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 3: about the Mike McCarthy signing. Todd Monkin is the Cleveland 617 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:28,400 Speaker 3: Browns head coach that has sent the whole spiral right 618 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 3: now with Schwartz and what's gonna happen there there are 619 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 3: jobs that have still not been filled. There are other 620 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 3: jobs that have been filled that are kind of whole 621 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 3: hume coaching hires, and it doesn't always go according to playing. 622 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 3: So Bill Barnwall today on ESPN dot com he looked 623 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 3: at the head coaching hires in the NFL since twenty 624 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 3: twenty one, and there are some hits. Some of those hits, 625 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 3: according to Bill Barnwell, number one the top coaching hire 626 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 3: since twenty twenty one, Dan Campbell Detroit Lions. Hard to 627 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 3: argue against that. Number two. Nick Sirianni won a Super 628 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 3: Bowl in Philly. He's fifty nine and twenty six. 629 00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 4: There been to two of them, yep, and there's been 630 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 4: a lot of changes at coordinators and they've still been 631 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 4: pretty dog on good. 632 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 3: Mike McDonald is three on the list. Mike vrabel is 633 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 3: four on the list. 634 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 5: Okay. 635 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 3: Number five, Dimiko Ryans, Sean Payton six, Kevin O'Connell, who 636 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 3: I know you and I are both high on his seven, 637 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 3: Ben Johnson eight, Jim Harbaugh nine, Dan Quinn ten. Now 638 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 3: I think if there were more seasons, you would have 639 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 3: Liam Cohen higher on this list. 640 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 4: He's number eleven. 641 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 3: But to me, you start getting to the middle of 642 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 3: the list, you're like, okay, these were okay, Like Mike 643 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 3: McDaniel was thirteen, Robert Salah was fourteen, Doug Peterson was fifteen. 644 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 3: With the Jaguars, you start getting down the list and 645 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 3: you start remembering Austin that the grass in fact is 646 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 3: not always greener on the other side. Number thirty seven 647 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 3: on the list, Urban Meyer not a good tenure in Jacksonville, 648 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 3: wasn't great. Number thirty six Frank Reich the Carolina Panthers 649 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 3: who if the coaches were fired before the end of 650 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 3: their first seasons. 651 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 4: And Frank Reich was one of those guys who was 652 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 4: an internal promotion with the Colts and then it didn't 653 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 4: work out with the nonsense going on with Carolina. Apparently 654 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 4: Frank Reich is the finalist to be the new offensive 655 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 4: coordinator of the Jets. How about that? This is some 656 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 4: of these other names. Nathaniel Hackett, Oh boy, Denver, you 657 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 4: could argue that was that phat worse than urban. 658 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 3: David Cowley with the Texans. Oh boy, it's crazy, it's crazy. 659 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 3: You get the Texans multiple times on this list. Yeah, 660 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 3: David Cowley one season, Lovey Smith three and thirteen and one. 661 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 3: Not good for the Houston Texans. 662 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 4: Gosh, I forgot about that. 663 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 3: What about Josh McDaniels, Yeah, not good with the Raiders. 664 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 3: Pete Carroll also not good this year with the Raiders. 665 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 3: The Raiders have three in a row on this listens 666 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 3: twenty twenty one, Antonio Pierce, Pete Carroll, Josh McDaniels, Yeah, 667 00:32:58,640 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 3: not good, not. 668 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 4: Good at all. And I think you could argue the 669 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 4: worst move they made is the made the move they 670 00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 4: didn't make, which was Rich Pasacia. Yeah, a lot of 671 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 4: people thought you should stick with him. 672 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 3: Brian Callahan is twenty eight on this list. Sorry, Brian, 673 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 3: Jonathan Gannon Nott, Eberflus, Raheem Morris, Dennis Allen. 674 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 4: You're Brian Callahan. The opinion of you maybe has never 675 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 4: been lower. Yeah. Do you go to the jets and 676 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 4: work with them as well? Mess or was that hurt 677 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:30,760 Speaker 4: your anymore? 678 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 5: Now? 679 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,719 Speaker 3: Arthur Smith your guy in Ohio state number twenty two 680 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 3: on this list. 681 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,160 Speaker 4: You know, I heard people talking about Arthur Smith today 682 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 4: That made me start to believe in him. Okay, the 683 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 4: PR campaign is already working. 684 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:42,320 Speaker 5: Okay, it's just like. 685 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 3: But this list to me, I feel like everyone in 686 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 3: and I get caught in this at times too or 687 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 3: so gung ho of all right, it's time to pull 688 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 3: the plug, go get somebody else. This list is an example. 689 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 3: It's a lot harder to find those guys at the 690 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 3: top than it is at the bottom. 691 00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 5: Agreed. 692 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 3: And you know it's again is when is it too 693 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 3: long to stick with the coach? It's that's a hard question. Yeah, 694 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 3: And there's a lot of back and forth that goes 695 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 3: into it. But we are trained in a way that 696 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,879 Speaker 3: we just think of the good ones like this year, 697 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 3: what do we talk about Ben Johnson and Liam cohen Man? 698 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 3: You just can you imagine you didn't pull that, you 699 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 3: didn't pull the trigger. Now you missed out on guys 700 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 3: like that. But for every guy like that, you have 701 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 3: guys at the bottom of the list. You have the 702 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,800 Speaker 3: Matt eberflu so that Brian Callahan or the Aaron Glenn 703 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:36,799 Speaker 3: and guys. 704 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:37,439 Speaker 5: That just don't work. 705 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:43,440 Speaker 3: It's not always easy to land on the guy. And 706 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 3: maybe when you talk about the continuity here in Cincinnati, 707 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:50,440 Speaker 3: maybe that's more the comfort zone. You know who and 708 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 3: what Zach Taylor is and you ride it back for 709 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,799 Speaker 3: another year. I'm not saying that that he should get 710 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 3: a pass next year if they don't make the playoffs, right, 711 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 3: But for those that are that were so adamant like 712 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,319 Speaker 3: this year had to be the year, what did there 713 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 3: end up being eleven jobs open? Eleven twelve jobs almost 714 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:12,319 Speaker 3: like a bunch of them. That is, so we still 715 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 3: have two jobs that are open, we have other jobs 716 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:16,799 Speaker 3: that are being landed, and the fan base doesn't seem 717 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 3: very happy, like there's not always going to be the 718 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 3: candidates every year. And maybe the Bengals looked back and said, 719 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,320 Speaker 3: you know what, there is no Ben Johnson right now. Yeah, 720 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 3: there is no well Liam Cullen right Now. 721 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:30,839 Speaker 4: My argument would be to that point, I don't know 722 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 4: that the Bengals are ever going to be able to 723 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 4: go and get that guy if he's available, because number one, 724 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 4: I don't think they'll pay that much for a coach. 725 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 4: Number Two, coaches like that generally want all the control 726 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 4: and that's never going to happen in Cincinnati. The argument 727 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:51,160 Speaker 4: that balances that out is that Mike Brown and Bengals 728 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 4: ownership is incredibly patient, and you have Joe Burrow and 729 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 4: Jamar Chase and t Higgins like right, those It is 730 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 4: a very back and forth depending on but what are 731 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 4: you going to give up as one of those coaches 732 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:08,360 Speaker 4: to be able to get to that point? Like the 733 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 4: Hardball thing, it got Harry there for a while at 734 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 4: the end because of the balance of power. 735 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,440 Speaker 3: Well it's Harry now because todm. Munkin's starting to take 736 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:16,879 Speaker 3: some coaches that he was gonna bring there. 737 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, but still like it really came down to John 738 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 4: Harball deciding and wanting to establish who he reports to, 739 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 4: who his bosses are, and how much control he has, 740 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:30,560 Speaker 4: and that is always going to be a reason why 741 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 4: some of the top candidates will not want to come 742 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:37,439 Speaker 4: to Cincinnati. Regardless of who the quarterback is. And that 743 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,759 Speaker 4: is an ownership issue, and I one hundred percent, and 744 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:44,280 Speaker 4: maybe down the line years from now it's not an issue, 745 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 4: but as of right now, it is, and it's still 746 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,319 Speaker 4: the ownership is very involved, and so you have to 747 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 4: take that into consideration. You know, if Mike Vrabel got 748 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:59,400 Speaker 4: fired today and Zach Taylor got fired today, there's no 749 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 4: guarantee that the Bengals will be able to land Mike Vrabel. Sure, right, Like, 750 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:05,880 Speaker 4: just because the best guy is out there doesn't mean 751 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:07,840 Speaker 4: the best guy wants to be the coach of the Bengals, 752 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 4: which makes you have to do a lot of due 753 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 4: diligence on what the other coaches are, maybe in that 754 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 4: second or third tier, and are they better than the 755 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:18,759 Speaker 4: guy you currently have. 756 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I just think it was a little bit of 757 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 3: an exercise to look at today and realize, Man, there's 758 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 3: been a lot of missus. 759 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,120 Speaker 4: Since twenty twenty one. Of the current have been the 760 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:32,360 Speaker 4: hits of the coaches that have been hired this cycle. 761 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 4: Robert Salah, John Harball, Kevin Stefanski, Todd Monkin, Jesse Mentor, 762 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 4: Jeff Hafley, Mike McCarthy and Joe Brady. Who do you 763 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:43,839 Speaker 4: think will be the most successful? Who do you think 764 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 4: will be the least successful. 765 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 3: I just I feel like Miami's in a really bad 766 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 3: spot right now. I would lean actually Miami as the 767 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 3: least success as the least successful. Okay, I think Cleveland 768 00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:01,919 Speaker 3: has some pieces there. Curious with Monkin being the guy 769 00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 3: and if they lose Schwartz what that does to the defense. 770 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,240 Speaker 3: I see why there's a lot of upside. But Jesse Minner, 771 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 3: I don't think McCarthy is going to revive Pittsburgh. I 772 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:13,399 Speaker 3: also don't think he's gonna tank him right. I think 773 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:17,359 Speaker 3: they're just gonna kind of be who they've been. I'm 774 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:21,720 Speaker 3: interested to see the Arizona job. I'm interested to see 775 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:27,319 Speaker 3: what pans out with with Vegas. I think one of 776 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:30,359 Speaker 3: the bigger upside jobs when it all is said and done. 777 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 3: I think Stefanski and Atlanta is gonna work really well. 778 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:37,080 Speaker 3: I just think with with Bijon, I think with Drake London, 779 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 3: I think they've got a good skill set. They had 780 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:44,240 Speaker 3: a good defensive line. I think that can work in Atlanta. 781 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 3: I think Baltimore obviously still has a lot of pieces 782 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 3: that you like and that you covet if you are 783 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:51,719 Speaker 3: a new coach, so I would put kind of Baltimore 784 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 3: and and in my opinion, I would put Atlanta near 785 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:56,719 Speaker 3: the top as well. 786 00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,200 Speaker 4: I think right now I'm gonna say the Ravens, especially 787 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 4: the idea of Jim Leonard as a potential defensive coordinator. 788 00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:07,239 Speaker 4: And for an owner who in his press conference the 789 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 4: other day said I want to win a couple of 790 00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 4: Super Bowls in the next ten years and get out, 791 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:14,000 Speaker 4: that to me tells you there is a very serious 792 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,839 Speaker 4: sense of urgency and an owner who has not been 793 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:23,479 Speaker 4: afraid to give his coaches everything they need to succeed. Now, 794 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:25,280 Speaker 4: is Lamar the guy you want to build around. 795 00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:26,239 Speaker 5: I don't know. 796 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 4: I think there are legitimate doubts there, but I think 797 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 4: Jesse Mentor will probably be the most successful. And I 798 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,200 Speaker 4: don't know why, but I don't have a good feeling 799 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 4: about Joe Brady and the Bills kind of talked about 800 00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 4: how those internal candidates don't always work out. I just 801 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:49,040 Speaker 4: feel like the Terry Pagula, Brandon Bean, now Joe Brady, 802 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:50,880 Speaker 4: then Josh Allen. By the way, Josh Allen at the 803 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:54,799 Speaker 4: press conference today crutches in a walking boot. Maybe he 804 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 4: had surgery. I don't know as Sean Payton, but I 805 00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,359 Speaker 4: think Joe Brady is the one I'm doubting the most. 806 00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:02,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's just a it's a weird spot too, 807 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,800 Speaker 3: because of where the roster's at. Yes you have Josh Allen, 808 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:09,799 Speaker 3: and yes you have James Cook, but not a ton 809 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 3: of talent around that. And I think that's a task 810 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:17,839 Speaker 3: to rebuild kind of what's left in Buffalo. Let's get 811 00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:19,319 Speaker 3: a break in, let's come back. We'll put a bow 812 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 3: on some phone calls five on three, seven, four, nine, 813 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:24,440 Speaker 3: fifteen thirty, finish up some other NFL topics, and then 814 00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 3: we'll switch to college hoops to kick off our number 815 00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:29,839 Speaker 3: two that comes next on ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports 816 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:45,240 Speaker 3: Station WCKWI. Since welcome back, Since he three sixty ESPN 817 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:48,719 Speaker 3: fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports Station, a service of Skyline Chili. 818 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:51,319 Speaker 3: We're gonna talk some college hoops in just a few 819 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 3: moments to kick off our number two. Let's reconnect here 820 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,479 Speaker 3: with Mike to round out these phone calls. 821 00:40:56,480 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 12: What's up, Mike, Thank you, guys, appreciate you. I lost 822 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:02,400 Speaker 12: it there for a minute. They didn't both of you 823 00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:04,439 Speaker 12: guys had your car stolen last year. 824 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that's happened. 825 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 12: That was wild, dude, I can't I'm that was wild. 826 00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:13,240 Speaker 4: I've never recovered. 827 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 12: Yeah, that's what I never asked. You have never either 828 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:18,800 Speaker 12: one of your cars were never recovered. 829 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 4: No, I got mine backed in the same one they 830 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:22,040 Speaker 4: got stolen. 831 00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:25,440 Speaker 3: I was essentially told from the uh, I believe the 832 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:28,960 Speaker 3: Monroe Police Department that don't expect that car to be found. 833 00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 12: Well, because you keep driving all this high end stuff. 834 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:38,279 Speaker 3: On it wast Come on, can you tell you're what 835 00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:39,840 Speaker 3: it fit the kids perfectly? 836 00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:47,680 Speaker 12: Usually you're driving Cadillacs, you know whatever. Anyway, I cameuine 837 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,520 Speaker 12: that Cadillac SUV before, so I know you had not 838 00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 12: anymore no more? Hey, uh, you already talked about bloods. 839 00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 14: No, I don't want to rehash that. 840 00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 12: But the whole time Brady was there, you know, bletso 841 00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:06,080 Speaker 12: did so Belichick did have a top ten defense forever. 842 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 4: Yes, that takes a lot of pressure off the quarterback 843 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 4: as well. 844 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:15,120 Speaker 12: Absolutely. Now you can imagine if Brady doesn't get in 845 00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 12: on the first ballot, my god, they might shoot a 846 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 12: Hall of Fame now correct, That would be it. That 847 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,400 Speaker 12: could be the end. We were right Tony. The other night, 848 00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:25,120 Speaker 12: Michigan wooked Nebraska. 849 00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, Nebraska was red hot to start the game. 850 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,680 Speaker 3: And that game finished. I think it was a three 851 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:36,440 Speaker 3: point margin that it finished at. But the way Nebraska started, 852 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:39,360 Speaker 3: you just kind of felt that Michigan weathered the first 853 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:42,319 Speaker 3: punch and we're just gonna slowly start to reel him in. 854 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:42,919 Speaker 4: And they did. 855 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 3: And I don't I don't want to take anything away 856 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:48,239 Speaker 3: from Nebraska. See, I thought Nebraska showed really well, but 857 00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,799 Speaker 3: you want to talk about a change of halves. It 858 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:54,279 Speaker 3: was fifty to forty eight a half. Both teams combined 859 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 3: for just forty nine in the second half. So defense 860 00:42:57,520 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 3: on both sides clammed down in the second half. But 861 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:03,000 Speaker 3: I think Nebraska is is a team that can do 862 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:05,040 Speaker 3: some damage. But I just think Michigan is on that 863 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 3: tier of national champion contenders. 864 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 12: I do too. I think Nebraska and Arkansas can cause 865 00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 12: some big problems in the tournament. Last thing, I think 866 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 12: I would love to see Lebron go at the trade 867 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:24,279 Speaker 12: deadline back to Cleveland right now, and the Lakers should 868 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,799 Speaker 12: trade him. Why wait for him to walk and get 869 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 12: nothing for him, Why not trading to Cleveland. The East 870 00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,279 Speaker 12: is wide open, they're deep at the big guy at 871 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:36,760 Speaker 12: the big spots. They got Jared Allen and Evan Mobley. 872 00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:40,080 Speaker 12: Evan Mobley's a stud YEP, and he's got ten years 873 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:43,520 Speaker 12: left on his career. He's from southern California. Why not 874 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:48,000 Speaker 12: trade Lebron to Cleveland for Evan Mobley? Because they need 875 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,160 Speaker 12: to sound bad and uh, and they know Lebron's not 876 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,600 Speaker 12: gonna be there after next year, probably go to Cleveland 877 00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:55,959 Speaker 12: next year. Why doesn't that since trade make sense? 878 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would. I would do it now rather than wait. 879 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,760 Speaker 3: The team are in similar spots right now. The Lakers 880 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:04,759 Speaker 3: are twenty eight and eighteen and the Caves are twenty 881 00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:07,720 Speaker 3: nine and twenty. But I think the Caves when healthy, 882 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:10,440 Speaker 3: can be a contender in the East. I just don't 883 00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 3: think with the teams in the West right now that 884 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:15,239 Speaker 3: the Lakers are a legitimate contender. And you know, they 885 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:17,160 Speaker 3: go out and get Yannis or something like that, that 886 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:20,399 Speaker 3: obviously changes, but as of right now, I don't think 887 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:23,160 Speaker 3: they're a contender. And to your point, we talk about 888 00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 3: this in sports all the time. Instead of just letting 889 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:29,880 Speaker 3: someone eventually walk, why not get something for him at 890 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:31,640 Speaker 3: a meaningful point that can help both sides. 891 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 12: Yeah, because Cleveland, I look the excitement, and then Lebron 892 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 12: would probably be excited. He might just that they need. 893 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:43,400 Speaker 4: To take the East, yep, without a doubt, and it'd be. 894 00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 12: A happy ending. Thanks Belle appreciates you. 895 00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:46,520 Speaker 5: Thank you, Mike appreciate that. 896 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:47,919 Speaker 12: Take care. 897 00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, that'd be crazy, wouldn't it? Seeing Lebron traded in season. 898 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:55,480 Speaker 4: I've heard a couple of people kind of bring this 899 00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:58,040 Speaker 4: up and being back in Cleveland a couple of days. 900 00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 4: It's his twenty third season, Umber twenty three, back where 901 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 4: it all began. They're good and so and so and 902 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,839 Speaker 4: so on and so on and so forth. I do 903 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,840 Speaker 4: also see that there's a lot of hype around Giannis 904 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 4: right now. Like I saw from Sham's he should be 905 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:20,480 Speaker 4: a bull. Sham said that the Heat, the Wolves, the Knicks, 906 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:26,000 Speaker 4: and the Warriors currently all among suitors for Yannis Antton Kompol. 907 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 4: The Heat, I feel like, are always in on every 908 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 4: player all the time. 909 00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 6: Yep. 910 00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:33,040 Speaker 4: But can he come back to college at this point? 911 00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:35,719 Speaker 4: Probably could bear Cat's probably now if it's Janis, does 912 00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 4: Thanis go with him? I was gonna say, are they 913 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,800 Speaker 4: a packaged dealer? There's I think there's three. Intentum Kompo's 914 00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:41,879 Speaker 4: on the Bucks right now. 915 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 3: I would imagine what happens to the other two. But 916 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:47,640 Speaker 3: the reporter on the NBA or that Yannis is kind 917 00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:51,759 Speaker 3: of prepping for an exit in Milwaukee, and I think 918 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 3: it's time. Anytime you start booing back at the fans, 919 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:59,160 Speaker 3: probably the time is coming to an end. So uh, 920 00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:01,680 Speaker 3: let us get a break in the top of the hours. 921 00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 5: Next. 922 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:03,880 Speaker 3: We could still grab phone calls along the way, but 923 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:05,879 Speaker 3: let's switch gears to what happened on the hardwood last 924 00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:08,480 Speaker 3: night for the Bearcats and the Muskies. You'll hear from 925 00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:12,719 Speaker 3: each coach as well. After the UC win and the 926 00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:15,759 Speaker 3: Xavier loss last night.

Before we get to any 939 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,040 Speaker 3: of that, let's talk about the local action in college 940 00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 3: basketball last night. Let's start with the team that pulled 941 00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:10,759 Speaker 3: out a win, the Cincinnati Bearcats, coming off back to 942 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:14,400 Speaker 3: back losses at Arizona and at Arizona State, in a 943 00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:16,640 Speaker 3: game against Arizona State which kind of felt like one 944 00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:19,920 Speaker 3: of the tipping points. No one's gonna fault the Bearcats 945 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 3: for coming up short against the number one ranked team 946 00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:26,440 Speaker 3: on the road in Arizona. The loss against Arizona State 947 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,800 Speaker 3: was troubling in many ways in my opinion, because it 948 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:32,600 Speaker 3: felt like at times the team kind of rolled over. 949 00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:37,279 Speaker 3: It felt like the effort wasn't there. And then you 950 00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:40,359 Speaker 3: start to kind of look forward for U see and 951 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:42,720 Speaker 3: you see the teams that are still on the schedule 952 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:47,600 Speaker 3: BYU Texas Tech, Kansas Houston, and albeit a winnable games 953 00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:51,920 Speaker 3: in between TCU, Oklahoma State, Utah, Kansas State, UCF, West Virginia, 954 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 3: the last night's game against Baylor. There are winnable games 955 00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:58,160 Speaker 3: that were on the schedule as well. But you wondered, Okay, 956 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:00,719 Speaker 3: can this team put anything together. They've yet to win 957 00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:03,840 Speaker 3: away from fifth third Arena and coming off a loss 958 00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:06,600 Speaker 3: like they did against Arizona State. Quite frankly, I wanted 959 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 3: to see what the effort looked like last night more 960 00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:13,840 Speaker 3: so than anything. The effort was there. The effort was 961 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:17,200 Speaker 3: there on the defensive side of the ball, especially as 962 00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:21,160 Speaker 3: they held Baylor to just fifty seven points. Baylor Fed 963 00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:24,200 Speaker 3: failed to get over thirty in each of the first 964 00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:26,920 Speaker 3: or second halves that they played. U see, on the 965 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:28,759 Speaker 3: other hand, they able to put sixty seven points on 966 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 3: the board, they get a ten point win, and they 967 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:34,839 Speaker 3: did so last night rather shorthanded. We found out before 968 00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:38,440 Speaker 3: the game Seanna Bive was in a walking boot and 969 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:42,160 Speaker 3: was on crutches. He is going to miss a significant 970 00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:44,560 Speaker 3: amount of time. We don't have a timetable yet. We'll 971 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:46,600 Speaker 3: get more of that with Keegan nickoson at two o'clock. 972 00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:52,560 Speaker 3: But they were without Seana Bive. They were without Sincere Harris, 973 00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:55,680 Speaker 3: who wasn't there last night due to an illness. He 974 00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:58,960 Speaker 3: wasn't even on the bench last night. Kerk Crisa was 975 00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:01,920 Speaker 3: limited for much of the week in practice, Tyler McKinley 976 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:04,799 Speaker 3: is not one hundred percent. So what you had last night, 977 00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:11,440 Speaker 3: all five starters for the Bearcats played twenty eight minutes 978 00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:15,880 Speaker 3: or more. Bobbi Miller, Mustapha Chom, Gigsel James, Dayte Thomas, 979 00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:20,960 Speaker 3: and Jalen Celestine all over twenty eight minutes last night 980 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:26,440 Speaker 3: in the game. Keishaan Tillery got some minutes, Jordi Rodriguez 981 00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:29,439 Speaker 3: got a couple minutes, Creasan McKinley got ten minutes each. 982 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:32,520 Speaker 3: But the production they got from the starting five last night. 983 00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 3: Boba Miller, who has been one of the best players 984 00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:41,160 Speaker 3: in the Big Twelve Conference here recently, eighteen points, seventeen 985 00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 3: rebounds last night for Bobba Miller, Mustapha Chom fourteen points 986 00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:51,400 Speaker 3: in the game, Gizzl James last night seventeen on six 987 00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:55,200 Speaker 3: of eleven shooting, including five of six beyond the ark. 988 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:58,000 Speaker 3: They got eight from Dayde Thomas, they got five Tom 989 00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:01,160 Speaker 3: Jalen Celestine, and five off the bench from Keyshaan Tillery. 990 00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:03,759 Speaker 3: That's how it made up the sixty seven points for 991 00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:07,160 Speaker 3: the Cincinnati Bearcats. But more so than anything they got 992 00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:09,040 Speaker 3: on the offensive side of the ball, Like I said, 993 00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 3: it was to me the defensive effort that was there 994 00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:16,320 Speaker 3: all night long. They shut down Baylor in many categories. 995 00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:19,759 Speaker 3: Dan Skillings played thirty five minutes in his return to 996 00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:23,320 Speaker 3: Cincinnati as a Baylor Bear just ten points and seven 997 00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:26,400 Speaker 3: rebounds for Dan Skillings, and they took a player and 998 00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 3: Cameron Carr, who averaged over twenty points a game this year, 999 00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:33,480 Speaker 3: one of the highest rated scorers in the country. The 1000 00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:36,480 Speaker 3: Bearcats clamped down on car last night. He had just 1001 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:41,600 Speaker 3: four points on one of eleven shooting for the Baylor Bears, 1002 00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:47,640 Speaker 3: a collectively good performance from UC. They now get ready 1003 00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:52,240 Speaker 3: to travel to Houston to take on Kelvin Samson's Houston Cougar's. 1004 00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:55,120 Speaker 3: Before that, here's what Wes Miller had to say after 1005 00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:55,879 Speaker 3: last night's win. 1006 00:50:56,520 --> 00:51:00,800 Speaker 17: Yeah, you know, I did not I felt I felt 1007 00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:03,440 Speaker 17: pretty good about the direction we've been going here the 1008 00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:06,839 Speaker 17: last three weeks or so and some of the things 1009 00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:09,160 Speaker 17: we've been doing in practicing in games. I did not 1010 00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:13,520 Speaker 17: feel good about Saturday night at Arizona State. That was 1011 00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:16,440 Speaker 17: kind of a that wasn't a characteristic of who we've 1012 00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:18,560 Speaker 17: been and how we've been approaching it. So I thought 1013 00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:22,600 Speaker 17: bouncing back tonight. I was really really pleased with our guys. 1014 00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:25,800 Speaker 5: We It's just kind of one of those weeks. 1015 00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:28,480 Speaker 17: It just feels like we've had just so many guys 1016 00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:32,120 Speaker 17: going through medical things or sickness things. So you know, 1017 00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:35,200 Speaker 17: since your hairs took a couple of ivs and just 1018 00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:38,279 Speaker 17: he was so sick he couldn't do it. You know, 1019 00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:41,800 Speaker 17: Tyler's knee is just day to day. He's just absolutely 1020 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:45,480 Speaker 17: grinding it out, man, Like, he's not healthy, he's not 1021 00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:48,479 Speaker 17: one hundred percent and he couldn't go in the second half, 1022 00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:52,400 Speaker 17: but we didn't know if he'd be able to go tonight. Gosh, 1023 00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:54,760 Speaker 17: we keep going down the list, right, I mean Kerr shoulder, 1024 00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:57,239 Speaker 17: he didn't practice yesterday. I didn't know if he'd go. 1025 00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:58,319 Speaker 17: He kind of gutted it out. 1026 00:51:58,760 --> 00:51:59,359 Speaker 5: And who am I. 1027 00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:02,000 Speaker 17: Forgetting there's more to it, right, Like it's just. 1028 00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:04,680 Speaker 4: The Sean I mean Sean. 1029 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:07,400 Speaker 17: Which he's had such great practices and starting to figure 1030 00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:09,759 Speaker 17: it out. I'm like heartbroken for him. So there's a 1031 00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:12,080 Speaker 17: lot of crap going on. And I say all that 1032 00:52:12,160 --> 00:52:15,239 Speaker 17: because tonight was a character win, Like we just kind 1033 00:52:15,239 --> 00:52:19,000 Speaker 17: of gutted it out without having all the personnel and 1034 00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:21,000 Speaker 17: all the stuff that you want to have, and so 1035 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:22,799 Speaker 17: I'm really proud of the guys that played and the 1036 00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:25,040 Speaker 17: guys that were able to gut it out tonight. I 1037 00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:27,000 Speaker 17: thought that was a really important win for our team. 1038 00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,000 Speaker 3: All right, that's what Wes Miller had to say about 1039 00:52:30,080 --> 00:52:34,400 Speaker 3: last night. I agree it was a good win, but 1040 00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:37,720 Speaker 3: they need a lot more. They need to string something 1041 00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 3: together and quite frankly, they need to beat a team 1042 00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:45,440 Speaker 3: like Houston. Mentioned before. The UC has yet to win 1043 00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:47,040 Speaker 3: on the road this year. There yet to win as 1044 00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:49,760 Speaker 3: matter of fact, away from Fifth Third Arena. That includes 1045 00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:53,320 Speaker 3: neutral site games as well. And how about this that Austin. 1046 00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 3: The last time that the UC Bearcats have beat Houston 1047 00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:02,319 Speaker 3: and Kelvin Samson would be February first, twenty twenty. That 1048 00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:07,279 Speaker 3: would be John Brannon as the head coach of the 1049 00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:08,200 Speaker 3: Cincinnati Bears. 1050 00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:10,080 Speaker 4: Real shame when some of the facts start to fit 1051 00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:14,319 Speaker 4: my narrative. Huhs that now just a couple of weeks ago. Also, 1052 00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:16,560 Speaker 4: I would argue they're due, well just a couple of 1053 00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:16,880 Speaker 4: weeks ago. 1054 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:19,680 Speaker 3: At Fifth Third Arena it was sixty to sixty with 1055 00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:22,680 Speaker 3: four minutes left. True, you se held a lead for 1056 00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:29,520 Speaker 3: much of that game. Ten lead changes, but did not 1057 00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:33,560 Speaker 3: score in the final four minutes. Houston won at sixty 1058 00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 3: seven to sixty. It is thirteen straight wins for the 1059 00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:41,719 Speaker 3: Cougars over the Bearcats. Obviously, that means Wes Miller has 1060 00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:43,840 Speaker 3: yet to ever beat Kelvin Samson. 1061 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:48,560 Speaker 4: And as you said, Austin, maybe they're due. Maybe at 1062 00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:49,359 Speaker 4: this point they're due. 1063 00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:54,960 Speaker 3: Can't say that game is Saturday at noon last night 1064 00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:57,680 Speaker 3: and there hasn't been many of these Austin as of late. 1065 00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:00,280 Speaker 3: We talked to Paul Fritzner about this yesterday and Paul Well, 1066 00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:02,879 Speaker 3: when asked about the Seaton Hall game, felt good about 1067 00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:06,120 Speaker 3: it for Xavier, and I agree. I thought it was 1068 00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:08,640 Speaker 3: a good matchup for the Musketeers and it certainly seemed 1069 00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 3: like that. To start the game. Xavier goes on the 1070 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:17,239 Speaker 3: run on the road at Seaton Hall, and at one 1071 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:20,120 Speaker 3: point in the first half I believe, led the game 1072 00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:24,879 Speaker 3: thirteen to two. At one point they led the game 1073 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:29,560 Speaker 3: fifteen to four. At another point they carried a lead 1074 00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:35,359 Speaker 3: into the half at forty one to thirty. The unfortunate 1075 00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:38,399 Speaker 3: news for Xavier last night is these games Austin take 1076 00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:41,680 Speaker 3: two halves to play. The second half was not as 1077 00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:44,760 Speaker 3: friendly to the Xavier Musketeers. They were outscored by Seaton 1078 00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:47,200 Speaker 3: Hall fifty six to twenty seven in the second half. 1079 00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:51,360 Speaker 3: That eleven point halftime lead turned into an eighteen point 1080 00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:55,080 Speaker 3: loss for the Xavier Musketeers, who just scored twenty seven 1081 00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:59,600 Speaker 3: points against Seaton Hall in the second twenty minutes of 1082 00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:05,600 Speaker 3: the game. I saw a tweet from Shelby Dhmer and 1083 00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:11,480 Speaker 3: he highlighted what Richard Patino wrote down as three keys 1084 00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:13,560 Speaker 3: to the game on the whiteboard before the Seaton Hall game. 1085 00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:14,319 Speaker 4: Are you ready for these? 1086 00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 5: I'm ready? 1087 00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:20,560 Speaker 3: Limit turnovers last night. Xavier turned the ball over nineteen times. 1088 00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:29,520 Speaker 3: Oh no, so oh for one defensive rebounding Seaton Hall 1089 00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:34,000 Speaker 3: twenty one offensive rebounds last night, oh for two. And 1090 00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:37,160 Speaker 3: then finally, the free throw line was going to be important. 1091 00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:40,160 Speaker 3: Xavier eight of ten from the foul line, Seaton Hall 1092 00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:43,879 Speaker 3: twenty one of twenty eight from the foul line. That 1093 00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:50,520 Speaker 3: those three keys to the game all failed by the 1094 00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:54,279 Speaker 3: Xavier Musketeers last night. Trey Carroll led the way for 1095 00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:57,560 Speaker 3: Xavier Austin with twenty two points. The bad news, Trey 1096 00:55:57,600 --> 00:56:00,560 Speaker 3: Carroll had twenty one in the first half, just one 1097 00:56:00,600 --> 00:56:04,840 Speaker 3: point for the most consistent player for Xavier in the 1098 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:08,479 Speaker 3: second half of that game, Xavier only playing about eight 1099 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:15,800 Speaker 3: guys right now in their rotation. The nineteen turnovers about this, Austin. 1100 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:19,520 Speaker 3: Of the nineteen turnovers, they were committed by just four players. Wow, 1101 00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:25,560 Speaker 3: so nineteen turnovers, dominated on the offensive glass, did not 1102 00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:29,120 Speaker 3: get to the foul line. It was a struggle for 1103 00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:31,640 Speaker 3: the Xavier Musketeers. So I thought had been coming along 1104 00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:35,800 Speaker 3: very well, I know in some losses, but had been competing, 1105 00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:40,640 Speaker 3: had kept it close, constant improvement. The second half felt 1106 00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:42,880 Speaker 3: a little bit like a reality check last night for 1107 00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:45,560 Speaker 3: the Xavier Musketeers. Here's what Richard Patino had to say 1108 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:46,719 Speaker 3: after that loss. 1109 00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:50,960 Speaker 18: They turned up the toughness and we didn't respond. You know, 1110 00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:54,680 Speaker 18: we talked about the keys to the game being taking. 1111 00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:56,920 Speaker 6: Care of the ball. We turned it over nineteen times. 1112 00:56:57,360 --> 00:57:00,279 Speaker 18: We talked about another key being keeping them off the 1113 00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:04,480 Speaker 18: offensive lass. They had twenty one offensive rebounds. And then 1114 00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:06,760 Speaker 18: we talked about the free throw line battle a team 1115 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:12,120 Speaker 18: that is very, very physical, and we didn't wasn't poorly 1116 00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:16,439 Speaker 18: officiated by any means, but you know, it's you only 1117 00:57:16,480 --> 00:57:18,560 Speaker 18: get to the free throw line ten times to their 1118 00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:23,080 Speaker 18: twenty eight. It's impossible to win. So give Seaton Hall credit. 1119 00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:25,160 Speaker 18: You know, they came out of the locker room and 1120 00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 18: punched us in the mouth and just kept punching for 1121 00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:32,360 Speaker 18: twenty minutes. You know, really really disappointing. Played a terrific 1122 00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:35,000 Speaker 18: first half and played about as bad as second half 1123 00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:35,959 Speaker 18: as I've seen this year. 1124 00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:38,960 Speaker 19: Coach A Tray Carroll had twenty two points in the 1125 00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:40,880 Speaker 19: first half. I thought he was on his way to 1126 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:45,320 Speaker 19: score in fifty with the confidence he was playing in 1127 00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 19: He got foul trouble in the second half, failed to score. 1128 00:57:50,520 --> 00:57:53,440 Speaker 19: What changed in the second half from the first half 1129 00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:54,120 Speaker 19: for him. 1130 00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:56,120 Speaker 18: Well, the foul trouble. I don't know many minutes he 1131 00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:58,640 Speaker 18: played in the first half, but the foul trouble certainly 1132 00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:00,880 Speaker 18: took him out of it. To go along six turnovers, 1133 00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:03,560 Speaker 18: I mean, like I said, I mean they weren't in 1134 00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:05,800 Speaker 18: the bonus early in the game or early in the 1135 00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:08,520 Speaker 18: second half, so they were able to be very, very aggressive, 1136 00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:12,920 Speaker 18: and we just all wilted under their pressure. And then 1137 00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:15,240 Speaker 18: certainly Trey just not getting in a rhythm with all 1138 00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:16,560 Speaker 18: the foul trouble hurt him. 1139 00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:19,960 Speaker 20: I thought Isaiah Walker gave you a nice boost off 1140 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:22,120 Speaker 20: the bench. He was four or seven from the field 1141 00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:24,960 Speaker 20: three or five from three point range. He played twenty 1142 00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:28,720 Speaker 20: two minutes of four yen scored thirteen points. 1143 00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:31,760 Speaker 18: Yeah, he was probably the only bright spot in that 1144 00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:34,840 Speaker 18: really really poor second half. I mean he stepped up, 1145 00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:39,000 Speaker 18: tried to make plays, was battling on the boards. So 1146 00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:41,880 Speaker 18: give him credit, you know, he was, Like I said, 1147 00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:43,640 Speaker 18: I think he was the only bright spot we had. 1148 00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:49,000 Speaker 19: Also, coach oban Eliseovich chipped in with sixteen points, only 1149 00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:52,320 Speaker 19: had two fouls in this one. Stayed in there, hit 1150 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:56,360 Speaker 19: a couple of threes. Assess how you thought Jovann played. 1151 00:58:56,920 --> 00:58:57,600 Speaker 6: He was battling. 1152 00:58:57,640 --> 00:59:00,200 Speaker 18: I mean, he's obviously an undersized five man. I mean, 1153 00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:02,240 Speaker 18: I think it gives us the best chance right now. 1154 00:59:02,320 --> 00:59:04,800 Speaker 18: But you know, I think as we continue to build 1155 00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:07,880 Speaker 18: the roster, we need a little bit more length down there, 1156 00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:11,680 Speaker 18: a little bit more physicality. But you know, he certainly 1157 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:14,439 Speaker 18: gave us his best shot and did some good things 1158 00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:14,880 Speaker 18: as well. 1159 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:19,040 Speaker 3: All Right, So that was Richard Patino. After last night's loss, 1160 00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:24,120 Speaker 3: the Seaton Hall Xavier falls to three and seven now 1161 00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:28,640 Speaker 3: in Big East play. Georgetown also three and seven, Marquette 1162 00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:31,360 Speaker 3: three and eight, and Providence is at two and eight 1163 00:59:32,080 --> 00:59:35,360 Speaker 3: right now in the Big East. So Xavier in a 1164 00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:38,760 Speaker 3: tie for third from the bottom of the Big East. 1165 00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:43,080 Speaker 3: It does not get easier for the Xavier Musketeers going forward. Saturday, 1166 00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:45,600 Speaker 3: they're going to host to Paul. Now Xavier went on 1167 00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:47,440 Speaker 3: the road and lost to De Paul eighty six to 1168 00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:50,640 Speaker 3: seventy seven. They get a chance to return the favor 1169 00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:53,720 Speaker 3: against the Paul and then after that buckle in at 1170 00:59:53,840 --> 00:59:58,040 Speaker 3: Yukon at Saint John's coming up in back to back 1171 00:59:58,080 --> 01:00:01,720 Speaker 3: games for the Xavier musket t So not a lot 1172 01:00:01,720 --> 01:00:04,200 Speaker 3: of time to really feel sorry about yourself if you're 1173 01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:08,560 Speaker 3: Richard Patino and the Xavier Musketeers. Onward and upward again 1174 01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:13,360 Speaker 3: that game, That tip for Xavier at the Sintas Center 1175 01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:17,800 Speaker 3: Saturday at one o'clock. Mentioned before, the Bearcats are at Houston. 1176 01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:23,960 Speaker 3: That's a noon tip on Saturday.

I believe the Louisville Cardinals are 1180 01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:46,200 Speaker 3: in action Friday night, or maybe not. I don't I 1181 01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:50,400 Speaker 3: don't know when Louisville back in action on Saturday. I'm sorry. 1182 01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:54,920 Speaker 3: They host SMU on Saturday through the Louisville Cardinals and 1183 01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:58,480 Speaker 3: the Kentucky Wildcats.

We'll also spend some 1189 01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:21,880 Speaker 3: time with Keegan nickoson. Did you mentioned Dayton at two o'clock? 1190 01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:22,360 Speaker 5: I did not. 1191 01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:25,960 Speaker 4: Dayton has a big one coming up tomorrow night at 1192 01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:30,720 Speaker 4: number twenty one Saint Louis. Oh, the Billickans, Saint Louis. 1193 01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:35,000 Speaker 3: That's a flyers Billickins. That's a big that's a name 1194 01:01:35,800 --> 01:01:38,520 Speaker 3: that is going around. The Saint Louis coach mentioned him 1195 01:01:38,600 --> 01:01:44,439 Speaker 3: yesterday as well. Dayton three straight losses in the Atlantic Ten, 1196 01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:48,400 Speaker 3: which seems like it never happens against a Saint Louis team. 1197 01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:50,880 Speaker 3: As you mentioned, that is twenty to one on the year, 1198 01:01:51,560 --> 01:01:55,800 Speaker 3: eight to o in the Analytic ten. If not for 1199 01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:59,800 Speaker 3: a one point loss early in the year to Stanford, 1200 01:02:00,840 --> 01:02:03,760 Speaker 3: Saint Louis would be among the unbeaten ranks as well. 1201 01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:06,800 Speaker 3: They are twenty and one. As it is now though 1202 01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:15,280 Speaker 3: only two remaining unbeatens in college basketball. One the Arizona Wildcats. 1203 01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:18,680 Speaker 3: They're at Arizona State on Saturday. They'll beat Arizona State. 1204 01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:23,960 Speaker 3: And the second the Miami RedHawks. You want to talk 1205 01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:27,680 Speaker 3: about Poppin' Mallet Hall is going to be madness on Saturday. 1206 01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:30,240 Speaker 3: I know they got the women's game on Saturday and 1207 01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:32,240 Speaker 3: then the men's game on Saturday. It's a whole deal 1208 01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:36,440 Speaker 3: at Mallet Hall. They host Northern Illinois and as as 1209 01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:41,240 Speaker 3: Travis Steele mentioned, I believe that the women at Miami 1210 01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:44,880 Speaker 3: are doing very well as well. He mentioned that I 1211 01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:48,200 Speaker 3: think they're on top of the MAX standings. On the 1212 01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:51,840 Speaker 3: women's side of things are the Miami RedHawks. They're nine 1213 01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:55,680 Speaker 3: to oh Austin in the MAC all right, so between 1214 01:02:55,680 --> 01:02:59,160 Speaker 3: Miami man they've yet to lose a MAC game. 1215 01:02:59,200 --> 01:02:59,840 Speaker 4: It's pretty good. 1216 01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:04,640 Speaker 3: One other women's college basketball note, I saw last night 1217 01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:09,000 Speaker 3: the number for the top ranked Yukon Huskies as they 1218 01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:13,520 Speaker 3: welcomed in Xavier women's basketball. The line in the game 1219 01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:17,680 Speaker 3: Austin was fifty nine and a half. Fifty nine and 1220 01:03:17,680 --> 01:03:20,640 Speaker 3: a half. You know what the crazy part is. Yukon 1221 01:03:20,720 --> 01:03:24,080 Speaker 3: won by fifty eight, So even when they spread as 1222 01:03:24,120 --> 01:03:26,760 Speaker 3: that big, the line is pretty spot on. Even though 1223 01:03:26,840 --> 01:03:29,880 Speaker 3: Xavier was only down five after the first quarter, things 1224 01:03:29,880 --> 01:03:33,320 Speaker 3: start to get ugly after that. So that's the college 1225 01:03:33,360 --> 01:03:36,160 Speaker 3: basketball roundup. We'll take a break, we'll come back.

A couple of weeks ago we were 1242 01:04:31,920 --> 01:04:35,920 Speaker 3: in here and I believe it was a Friday and 1243 01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:37,400 Speaker 3: there was a knock on the front door and the 1244 01:04:37,440 --> 01:04:39,880 Speaker 3: folks that Dorothy Lane were here.

Hoover, 1631 01:23:52,600 --> 01:23:55,800 Speaker 4: he was at Red's festow reminiscing on some of the 1632 01:23:55,800 --> 01:23:56,760 Speaker 4: bombs he gave up. 1633 01:23:57,439 --> 01:23:57,719 Speaker 6: Wow. 1634 01:23:58,640 --> 01:24:00,280 Speaker 4: You know JJ Hoover owns a carts. 1635 01:24:00,640 --> 01:24:03,639 Speaker 3: I'll bet you JJ Hoover wishes that more teams took 1636 01:24:03,680 --> 01:24:08,200 Speaker 3: the Reds approach in Great American Ballpark, I get hit singles. 1637 01:24:08,600 --> 01:24:10,840 Speaker 4: I give JJ Hoover a lot of credit because he 1638 01:24:10,960 --> 01:24:13,479 Speaker 4: was a punching bag for a while. Yeah, and I 1639 01:24:13,479 --> 01:24:15,200 Speaker 4: don't know that I would want to come back and 1640 01:24:16,200 --> 01:24:18,599 Speaker 4: see a lot of these Reds fans. But glad they 1641 01:24:18,600 --> 01:24:22,920 Speaker 4: say time heals all. Some say that yes, one of 1642 01:24:23,080 --> 01:24:25,240 Speaker 4: the time I spend in here today, I'll fix my car. 1643 01:24:25,680 --> 01:24:30,320 Speaker 3: One segment when we return on ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati 1644 01:24:30,360 --> 01:24:31,160 Speaker 3: Sports station. 1645 01:24:32,520 --> 01:24:46,040 Speaker 37: WCKY since you found Cincinnati's ESPN fifteen thirty. 1646 01:24:47,920 --> 01:24:50,320 Speaker 4: Welcome back since he three sixty. 1647 01:24:50,520 --> 01:24:55,360 Speaker 3: ESPN fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports station Keegan Nicholson, Bearkat jone 1648 01:24:55,439 --> 01:24:58,960 Speaker 3: dot com kicks off our number three. Rick Yucchino will 1649 01:24:58,960 --> 01:25:02,080 Speaker 3: also join us in these th hour, as will mow Agger. 1650 01:25:03,240 --> 01:25:09,520 Speaker 3: A couple minutes here, Austin Sports illustrated Gilberto Manzano. Okay, Gilberto, 1651 01:25:09,880 --> 01:25:13,439 Speaker 3: Gilberto came up with his top one hundred players going 1652 01:25:13,479 --> 01:25:16,000 Speaker 3: into twenty twenty six. Yes, that's how you know. It's 1653 01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:19,120 Speaker 3: the offseason when the Super Bowl has not even been 1654 01:25:19,160 --> 01:25:21,719 Speaker 3: played and we are rating next year's top one hundred. 1655 01:25:21,880 --> 01:25:22,200 Speaker 4: Okay. 1656 01:25:23,280 --> 01:25:28,080 Speaker 3: In that top ten for Gilbert, Joe Burrow and Jamar 1657 01:25:28,160 --> 01:25:31,439 Speaker 3: Chase both show up. Joe Burrow is listed as the 1658 01:25:31,560 --> 01:25:36,920 Speaker 3: ninth best player in the NFL. It says Burrow, coming 1659 01:25:36,920 --> 01:25:39,280 Speaker 3: off another rocky season, dude, injuries and a lack of 1660 01:25:39,320 --> 01:25:42,400 Speaker 3: help on defense. Hard to give up on. Possibly the 1661 01:25:42,479 --> 01:25:44,960 Speaker 3: best pocket passer in the NFL, A little bit of 1662 01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:47,599 Speaker 3: a throwback field with his game skill set that resembles 1663 01:25:47,640 --> 01:25:51,400 Speaker 3: Tom Brady. Burrow won't play up to his potential until 1664 01:25:51,400 --> 01:25:54,160 Speaker 3: he shows he can stay healthy. It's been three years 1665 01:25:54,240 --> 01:25:56,240 Speaker 3: since Joe Burrow has been in the playoffs and five 1666 01:25:56,560 --> 01:25:59,400 Speaker 3: since guiding the Bengals to the Super Bowl. So it 1667 01:25:59,400 --> 01:26:01,559 Speaker 3: says perhaps for giving Burrow too much credit for his 1668 01:26:01,600 --> 01:26:05,000 Speaker 3: early success, but he had an MVP worthy season in 1669 01:26:05,040 --> 01:26:08,800 Speaker 3: twenty twenty four. Joe Burrow number nine, number three on 1670 01:26:08,880 --> 01:26:13,559 Speaker 3: the list Jamar Chase. And what's interesting on this Austin 1671 01:26:13,640 --> 01:26:15,960 Speaker 3: is there are a lot of good wide receivers in 1672 01:26:16,000 --> 01:26:19,839 Speaker 3: the NFL. They gave Jamar Chase the nod over Pookin Kakula, 1673 01:26:19,840 --> 01:26:23,559 Speaker 3: who's number four on this list, Pokah. So I mean 1674 01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:27,720 Speaker 3: you're talking about a receiver in Jamar Chase now three 1675 01:26:27,760 --> 01:26:29,639 Speaker 3: year streak of at least one hundred catches and twelve 1676 01:26:29,720 --> 01:26:30,679 Speaker 3: hundred receiving yards. 1677 01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:32,320 Speaker 5: He is. 1678 01:26:34,080 --> 01:26:34,920 Speaker 4: So talented. 1679 01:26:35,080 --> 01:26:38,599 Speaker 3: I still don't think he's utilized fully in the way 1680 01:26:38,640 --> 01:26:40,599 Speaker 3: Like if you think of how Pookin Nakua and Jackson 1681 01:26:40,640 --> 01:26:44,200 Speaker 3: Smith and jig berre utilized, that's different than watching Jamar Chase, right, 1682 01:26:45,040 --> 01:26:47,439 Speaker 3: They just they get them the ball in many different ways. 1683 01:26:48,560 --> 01:26:53,080 Speaker 3: But despite all that, and despite Joe Burrow's injuries, Jamar 1684 01:26:53,200 --> 01:26:57,160 Speaker 3: Chase consistently shows up as one of, if not the 1685 01:26:57,160 --> 01:27:01,240 Speaker 3: best wide receivers in the NFL. The other top ten 1686 01:27:03,240 --> 01:27:07,719 Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes number ten, B Jhon Robinson eight, Penny Seul 1687 01:27:08,560 --> 01:27:12,479 Speaker 3: number seven, Jamiir Gibbs six, Will Anderson Junior five, Pukin 1688 01:27:12,520 --> 01:27:17,360 Speaker 3: Nakua four, Miles Garrett two, Josh Allen won. Do you 1689 01:27:17,439 --> 01:27:24,559 Speaker 3: disagree with Josh Allen being number one on this list? 1690 01:27:26,840 --> 01:27:27,080 Speaker 6: Yeah? 1691 01:27:27,080 --> 01:27:27,320 Speaker 4: I do. 1692 01:27:29,000 --> 01:27:30,680 Speaker 3: I find him as one of the hardest players to 1693 01:27:30,720 --> 01:27:35,920 Speaker 3: figure out right now. Yeah, because so individually talented. But 1694 01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:37,760 Speaker 3: they had a great running game this year, and they 1695 01:27:37,760 --> 01:27:40,960 Speaker 3: could get little to nothing done consistently in the passing game. 1696 01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:42,680 Speaker 3: And I don't know if that's more Allen or I 1697 01:27:42,720 --> 01:27:44,559 Speaker 3: don't know if that's just the weapons around him. But 1698 01:27:45,400 --> 01:27:49,200 Speaker 3: at some point, I mean, we've seen Joe Burrow Austin 1699 01:27:49,880 --> 01:27:54,920 Speaker 3: excel with Jamar Chase being out of games, with t 1700 01:27:55,080 --> 01:27:57,320 Speaker 3: Higgins being out of here. I remember Trent Irwin having 1701 01:27:57,320 --> 01:28:00,240 Speaker 3: big games with Joe Burrow as the quarterback. I don't 1702 01:28:00,240 --> 01:28:03,280 Speaker 3: think Josh Allen can be that. So I am I 1703 01:28:03,320 --> 01:28:05,840 Speaker 3: am a little I'm a little surprised seeing Josh Allen 1704 01:28:05,840 --> 01:28:09,559 Speaker 3: at number one on this list. I'm just not overly 1705 01:28:09,600 --> 01:28:11,519 Speaker 3: sold yet. Who would be your number one player in 1706 01:28:11,520 --> 01:28:16,360 Speaker 3: the NFL? Miles Garrett. Yeah, I think he's a monster. 1707 01:28:16,479 --> 01:28:18,439 Speaker 4: When does the Miles Garrett step back happen? 1708 01:28:18,640 --> 01:28:19,160 Speaker 5: I don't know. 1709 01:28:20,120 --> 01:28:23,519 Speaker 4: Maybe this year is when he finally quits. Did you 1710 01:28:23,560 --> 01:28:25,799 Speaker 4: see his Instagram story. I didn't see what he posted. 1711 01:28:25,920 --> 01:28:28,680 Speaker 4: So there's the meme of I think it's like an 1712 01:28:28,800 --> 01:28:32,120 Speaker 4: RB's worker and it's a woman and she's like sitting 1713 01:28:32,120 --> 01:28:34,280 Speaker 4: on a bench with their arms on her knees, like 1714 01:28:34,320 --> 01:28:37,880 Speaker 4: smoking a cigarette. She just looks exhausted. It's a really 1715 01:28:37,880 --> 01:28:42,280 Speaker 4: well known meme. I he posted that on his story 1716 01:28:42,360 --> 01:28:49,720 Speaker 4: after the Todd Monkin, oh and Jim Schwartz drama. But 1717 01:28:50,000 --> 01:28:51,519 Speaker 4: not what you want to see him posting. I mean, 1718 01:28:51,520 --> 01:28:54,599 Speaker 4: the guy just keeps showing up every single years. He's 1719 01:28:54,920 --> 01:28:55,439 Speaker 4: a monster. 1720 01:28:55,800 --> 01:29:02,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, so yeah, I still falls off first de Henry. 1721 01:29:03,479 --> 01:29:06,080 Speaker 4: I think we started to see it with Henry this year. Okay, 1722 01:29:06,120 --> 01:29:09,600 Speaker 4: I think the ball control issues and slowing down just 1723 01:29:09,640 --> 01:29:12,720 Speaker 4: a little, so I think it's already Derrick Henry. I 1724 01:29:12,840 --> 01:29:15,840 Speaker 4: want to say Josh, I really like Josh Allen, but 1725 01:29:15,960 --> 01:29:18,559 Speaker 4: like there are times this year where it felt like 1726 01:29:18,680 --> 01:29:22,240 Speaker 4: Josh Allen from his rookie season where there was just 1727 01:29:22,320 --> 01:29:25,040 Speaker 4: this moment of like what is he doing with the football? Like, 1728 01:29:25,080 --> 01:29:27,360 Speaker 4: why does he why is he doing that? It happened 1729 01:29:27,360 --> 01:29:30,400 Speaker 4: in the playoffs, happened against Denver with that fumble, Like 1730 01:29:30,439 --> 01:29:33,040 Speaker 4: there was just a couple of those moments where it 1731 01:29:33,160 --> 01:29:38,120 Speaker 4: just didn't quite seem like it fit. I don't know 1732 01:29:38,160 --> 01:29:40,640 Speaker 4: that you can ever really go against Mahomes. It's been 1733 01:29:40,680 --> 01:29:43,479 Speaker 4: a rough couple of years for him. I think Puka 1734 01:29:43,560 --> 01:29:45,599 Speaker 4: in the way that they feature him, is as dominant 1735 01:29:45,640 --> 01:29:48,880 Speaker 4: as a player as there is in the NFL, just 1736 01:29:48,920 --> 01:29:50,200 Speaker 4: because he's. 1737 01:29:50,080 --> 01:29:51,639 Speaker 5: Just everywhere all the time. 1738 01:29:52,080 --> 01:29:56,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, but like all around player, I don't know that 1739 01:29:56,080 --> 01:29:58,280 Speaker 4: I would go outside of Miles Garrett to be honest. 1740 01:29:58,560 --> 01:30:01,240 Speaker 3: There is one other Bengal in that top one hundred list. 1741 01:30:01,240 --> 01:30:03,760 Speaker 3: He comes in at number one hundred, and that would 1742 01:30:03,760 --> 01:30:07,800 Speaker 3: be Trey Hendrickson. Oh wow, So no Pro Bowl t 1743 01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:11,439 Speaker 3: Higgins on that list for now, that's a little bit 1744 01:30:11,439 --> 01:30:16,240 Speaker 3: hard to believe. I agree, I agree, okay, But interesting, 1745 01:30:16,520 --> 01:30:18,679 Speaker 3: you know, top one hundred, there's a lot of players 1746 01:30:18,680 --> 01:30:21,439 Speaker 3: in the NFL and a lot of good players. That's 1747 01:30:21,479 --> 01:30:28,080 Speaker 3: true in the NFL as well other Bengals related note 1748 01:30:28,080 --> 01:30:30,960 Speaker 3: here just real quick and maybe we can dive into 1749 01:30:30,960 --> 01:30:33,840 Speaker 3: this a little bit more tomorrow. We've talked a lot 1750 01:30:33,840 --> 01:30:38,920 Speaker 3: about rewarding players with early contract extensions, and we've brought 1751 01:30:38,960 --> 01:30:41,840 Speaker 3: up the name Chase Brown a lot. According to Ben Baby, 1752 01:30:42,040 --> 01:30:45,880 Speaker 3: covers the Bengals for ESPN dot Com. In a recent 1753 01:30:45,920 --> 01:30:49,160 Speaker 3: interview with Chase Brown, Brown said quote that the Bengals 1754 01:30:49,160 --> 01:30:53,040 Speaker 3: and his representation have been working hard and have been 1755 01:30:53,080 --> 01:30:59,840 Speaker 3: in communication regarding a potential extension. So again, whether these 1756 01:30:59,880 --> 01:31:02,519 Speaker 3: things get done or not, I think that is a 1757 01:31:03,720 --> 01:31:06,320 Speaker 3: key domino to fall this offseason. 1758 01:31:06,360 --> 01:31:07,080 Speaker 4: I think it would. 1759 01:31:07,880 --> 01:31:10,360 Speaker 3: I think it would bode very well for this team 1760 01:31:10,360 --> 01:31:14,839 Speaker 3: going forward. But to hear that at least these sides 1761 01:31:14,840 --> 01:31:18,720 Speaker 3: are talking, I think could benefit both sides. Brown has 1762 01:31:18,800 --> 01:31:20,760 Speaker 3: one more year left on his rookie deal. It's a 1763 01:31:20,920 --> 01:31:24,400 Speaker 3: three point seven million dollar cap hit. But obviously getting 1764 01:31:24,400 --> 01:31:26,799 Speaker 3: out in front with an extension could benefit both sides. 1765 01:31:27,640 --> 01:31:29,720 Speaker 3: Gives him more security and maybe gives the team some 1766 01:31:29,760 --> 01:31:32,800 Speaker 3: insurance from a dispute happening next year. 1767 01:31:32,960 --> 01:31:36,400 Speaker 4: I mean, knowing that they've talked to him, They've talked 1768 01:31:36,439 --> 01:31:39,000 Speaker 4: to Dalton Reisner. I think there's been some communication with 1769 01:31:39,600 --> 01:31:42,200 Speaker 4: DJ Turner as well. These are all good things. I mean, 1770 01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:45,759 Speaker 4: this is the very lowest of bars and hurdles to clear, 1771 01:31:46,560 --> 01:31:49,600 Speaker 4: but it's better than in the past we've heard. I 1772 01:31:49,600 --> 01:31:52,480 Speaker 4: haven't heard anything from him. Yeah, there's been no communication. 1773 01:31:52,920 --> 01:31:54,120 Speaker 4: My agent hasn't heard a thing. 1774 01:31:54,320 --> 01:31:54,519 Speaker 5: Yep. 1775 01:31:54,680 --> 01:31:57,880 Speaker 4: Now, typically the Bengals get these deals done late, and 1776 01:31:57,920 --> 01:32:01,120 Speaker 4: we've talked in the past about how well you don't 1777 01:32:01,160 --> 01:32:04,559 Speaker 4: want this to creep into free agency and it affects 1778 01:32:04,600 --> 01:32:06,760 Speaker 4: the way you approach free agency, or it affects the 1779 01:32:06,760 --> 01:32:09,400 Speaker 4: way you approach the draft. It's a good thing that 1780 01:32:09,439 --> 01:32:12,599 Speaker 4: the Bengals are having these conversations at the moment. Hopefully 1781 01:32:12,640 --> 01:32:15,599 Speaker 4: they're all done by the time the new league year 1782 01:32:15,680 --> 01:32:18,599 Speaker 4: starts and they can hit the ground running with free agency. 1783 01:32:18,680 --> 01:32:24,839 Speaker 3: One other note, CBS Sports Zachary Perellis put the landing 1784 01:32:24,920 --> 01:32:29,760 Speaker 3: spot projection for his forty fifth overall free agent in 1785 01:32:29,880 --> 01:32:32,080 Speaker 3: Jadeveon Clowney with the Cincinnati Bengals. 1786 01:32:32,200 --> 01:32:34,000 Speaker 5: Okay, I'd be down with jud be four. 1787 01:32:34,080 --> 01:32:36,200 Speaker 3: Or against Jadavion Clowney. That's something we could talk more 1788 01:32:36,240 --> 01:32:38,080 Speaker 3: about tomorrow.

Let's do so and talk some Bearcats with 1805 01:33:33,320 --> 01:33:37,520 Speaker 3: the man covering the squad for Bearcat Journal dot com. 1806 01:33:37,560 --> 01:33:41,120 Speaker 3: Our good friend Keegan Nickoson, joining us right now. Hello Kegan, 1807 01:33:42,720 --> 01:33:43,479 Speaker 3: Hello Tony. 1808 01:33:43,520 --> 01:33:45,519 Speaker 5: How are you doing, Keegan? I'm doing great. How's your 1809 01:33:45,560 --> 01:33:45,960 Speaker 5: week going? 1810 01:33:47,640 --> 01:33:48,599 Speaker 6: It's going excellent. 1811 01:33:49,080 --> 01:33:51,040 Speaker 13: I mean, I don't know how much better it can get. 1812 01:33:51,360 --> 01:33:54,120 Speaker 13: Got to see Dan Skillings play basketball in person yesterday. 1813 01:33:54,240 --> 01:33:57,120 Speaker 3: I watched Dan Skillings play yesterday and I thought to myself, 1814 01:33:57,160 --> 01:33:59,800 Speaker 3: that's the same Dan Skillings. I watched pretty much every game, 1815 01:34:00,520 --> 01:34:03,680 Speaker 3: did some good stuff, did some bad stuff. Did some 1816 01:34:03,720 --> 01:34:05,360 Speaker 3: stuff that makes you want to pull your hair out. 1817 01:34:07,000 --> 01:34:10,840 Speaker 13: Yeah, the baseline drives and up and underlaps haven't really 1818 01:34:11,000 --> 01:34:13,080 Speaker 13: left his arsenal, So it was good to see that. 1819 01:34:13,360 --> 01:34:16,840 Speaker 3: Nope, I want to talk about last night as a whole, 1820 01:34:16,920 --> 01:34:20,680 Speaker 3: because no one would have faulted this team. You go 1821 01:34:20,720 --> 01:34:22,360 Speaker 3: out and you lose to the number one ranked team 1822 01:34:22,400 --> 01:34:24,720 Speaker 3: in the country in Arizona, and then you rebound from that. 1823 01:34:25,400 --> 01:34:27,920 Speaker 3: I thought Saturday night against Arizona State was one of 1824 01:34:27,960 --> 01:34:31,559 Speaker 3: the worst Big Twelve performances of the year for this team, 1825 01:34:31,600 --> 01:34:34,840 Speaker 3: and I thought it came into question really the first 1826 01:34:34,880 --> 01:34:39,719 Speaker 3: time about effort and the attention to detail that we've 1827 01:34:39,760 --> 01:34:42,160 Speaker 3: seen more from this team. They've lost games, they've lost 1828 01:34:42,160 --> 01:34:44,960 Speaker 3: in heartbreaking fashion, but it seemed like the effort was 1829 01:34:45,000 --> 01:34:48,280 Speaker 3: always there. It didn't feel like it was there Saturday night. 1830 01:34:48,320 --> 01:34:50,760 Speaker 3: Did you feel like they rebounded well from that last night? 1831 01:34:52,600 --> 01:34:56,799 Speaker 13: Yeah? I do, And I think I would also rebound 1832 01:34:56,840 --> 01:34:59,000 Speaker 13: well if I got to get out of whatever weather 1833 01:34:59,120 --> 01:35:01,600 Speaker 13: we had to suffer this weekend and be in Arizona 1834 01:35:01,680 --> 01:35:04,880 Speaker 13: for a few days. So maybe that kind of caused 1835 01:35:04,880 --> 01:35:08,120 Speaker 13: the reset for them, which is good to see. But 1836 01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:11,519 Speaker 13: I think it was just kind of being able to 1837 01:35:11,520 --> 01:35:14,400 Speaker 13: get back in your home arena and be comfortable. I 1838 01:35:14,439 --> 01:35:16,559 Speaker 13: think it was it was a big thing for it 1839 01:35:16,640 --> 01:35:19,080 Speaker 13: and just being able to play with good effort, play 1840 01:35:19,120 --> 01:35:21,400 Speaker 13: with good intensity, and play up to the brain. 1841 01:35:21,280 --> 01:35:22,519 Speaker 6: Of basketball that you wanted to. 1842 01:35:23,200 --> 01:35:27,320 Speaker 13: And it's also it helps that they're playing a team 1843 01:35:27,439 --> 01:35:30,320 Speaker 13: who is also struggling, and it was kind of like 1844 01:35:30,360 --> 01:35:34,639 Speaker 13: two teams who you're one or two games away from 1845 01:35:34,880 --> 01:35:37,240 Speaker 13: just giving up on the year and kind of just 1846 01:35:37,520 --> 01:35:39,840 Speaker 13: like pushing. 1847 01:35:39,479 --> 01:35:40,880 Speaker 6: It in and being done. 1848 01:35:41,040 --> 01:35:44,560 Speaker 13: But it's yeah, it was an interesting one. It was 1849 01:35:44,640 --> 01:35:47,559 Speaker 13: kind of it was a pretty boring game when all 1850 01:35:47,600 --> 01:35:50,400 Speaker 13: things considered. There wasn't a lot that happened, and it 1851 01:35:50,479 --> 01:35:52,439 Speaker 13: was kind of similar to Iowa States, where you see 1852 01:35:52,479 --> 01:35:54,240 Speaker 13: got out to lead and they were able to make 1853 01:35:54,240 --> 01:35:56,679 Speaker 13: the necessary place to sustain it and kind of prevent 1854 01:35:56,760 --> 01:35:58,920 Speaker 13: them from going on any big runs. 1855 01:35:59,160 --> 01:36:01,280 Speaker 3: One of the things we had seen is the continued 1856 01:36:01,320 --> 01:36:06,400 Speaker 3: emergence of bobon Miller another Monster game eighteen points, seventeen rebounds. 1857 01:36:07,960 --> 01:36:10,240 Speaker 3: What are you seeing from his game that is lending 1858 01:36:10,280 --> 01:36:13,040 Speaker 3: itself to more success that we're seeing because I think 1859 01:36:13,080 --> 01:36:15,920 Speaker 3: early on we saw flashes of it. Now I feel 1860 01:36:15,920 --> 01:36:18,160 Speaker 3: like we see it at a much more consistent level 1861 01:36:18,160 --> 01:36:18,960 Speaker 3: for bobon Miller. 1862 01:36:20,680 --> 01:36:24,639 Speaker 13: Yeah, he's making it look easy and it's not as 1863 01:36:24,760 --> 01:36:29,120 Speaker 13: easy as it looks for what he's doing, especially on rebounding. 1864 01:36:30,080 --> 01:36:33,440 Speaker 13: I don't think that he expected his role on Cincinnati 1865 01:36:33,520 --> 01:36:36,040 Speaker 13: before the season to be, Okay, I'm going to be 1866 01:36:36,040 --> 01:36:40,200 Speaker 13: the most aggressive and most talented. 1867 01:36:39,720 --> 01:36:40,719 Speaker 6: Score on the team. 1868 01:36:41,120 --> 01:36:43,439 Speaker 13: But you're just seeing him take the ball and get 1869 01:36:43,479 --> 01:36:47,320 Speaker 13: to the rem and he's either getting good shots or 1870 01:36:47,400 --> 01:36:49,400 Speaker 13: he's getting found and going to the line, and his 1871 01:36:49,479 --> 01:36:52,559 Speaker 13: free throw shooting is also starting to come along. He 1872 01:36:52,640 --> 01:36:55,960 Speaker 13: also missed two bunnies that usually you see him may 1873 01:36:56,040 --> 01:36:58,200 Speaker 13: kind of floaters around the rim. So he's close to 1874 01:36:58,360 --> 01:37:01,360 Speaker 13: having twenty two points from the eighteen that he finished with. 1875 01:37:01,880 --> 01:37:04,799 Speaker 13: So he's the three ball still. 1876 01:37:04,600 --> 01:37:06,400 Speaker 6: Isn't there, And at this point in the. 1877 01:37:06,360 --> 01:37:09,320 Speaker 13: Season, I'm kind of like, Okay, just just abandon it 1878 01:37:09,400 --> 01:37:11,240 Speaker 13: and then play to your keys and play to. 1879 01:37:11,160 --> 01:37:13,040 Speaker 6: What you've been having success with. 1880 01:37:13,680 --> 01:37:16,320 Speaker 13: But he's having just so much success getting to the rim, 1881 01:37:16,400 --> 01:37:19,240 Speaker 13: and when he's on you can kind of see his 1882 01:37:19,360 --> 01:37:21,519 Speaker 13: teammates or feeding off of it because they know that 1883 01:37:21,560 --> 01:37:24,479 Speaker 13: they have one of the more talented players in the 1884 01:37:24,640 --> 01:37:26,960 Speaker 13: entire Big Twelve on their team, and he's kind of 1885 01:37:27,000 --> 01:37:29,000 Speaker 13: making the case to be a first team All Big 1886 01:37:29,040 --> 01:37:32,280 Speaker 13: twelve player despite being on a team who's sitting at 1887 01:37:32,320 --> 01:37:34,200 Speaker 13: eleven and ten and it's kind of pretty far out 1888 01:37:34,240 --> 01:37:35,639 Speaker 13: of the conference side of race. 1889 01:37:36,240 --> 01:37:38,680 Speaker 3: Gisel James had a big night, Mustapha cham had a 1890 01:37:38,720 --> 01:37:41,160 Speaker 3: big night. Is there something too, and we'll get to 1891 01:37:41,160 --> 01:37:44,599 Speaker 3: the reason why in just a moment. Is there something 1892 01:37:44,600 --> 01:37:47,200 Speaker 3: that lends itself to maybe some more success when you 1893 01:37:47,240 --> 01:37:49,200 Speaker 3: do shrink down the rotation a little bit? Last night 1894 01:37:49,200 --> 01:37:51,200 Speaker 3: they had to do so because of injury and sickness, 1895 01:37:51,240 --> 01:37:54,920 Speaker 3: but all five starters play over twenty eight minutes. Chris 1896 01:37:55,000 --> 01:37:57,000 Speaker 3: and McKinley are the only other bench players that got 1897 01:37:57,000 --> 01:37:59,599 Speaker 3: double figures in minutes, and I think you see more 1898 01:37:59,600 --> 01:38:01,760 Speaker 3: consistent see from a guy like Digel James. Is there 1899 01:38:01,880 --> 01:38:05,080 Speaker 3: something to be said in your opinion about cutting the 1900 01:38:05,160 --> 01:38:06,240 Speaker 3: rotation down a little bit? 1901 01:38:08,080 --> 01:38:10,760 Speaker 13: I think there is. I think it's just easier to 1902 01:38:10,760 --> 01:38:14,280 Speaker 13: get into a flow. But I also think, like Digsel 1903 01:38:14,360 --> 01:38:18,200 Speaker 13: James's and Dada Thomas's home and road splits are there's 1904 01:38:18,240 --> 01:38:19,559 Speaker 13: a pretty big disparity there. 1905 01:38:19,680 --> 01:38:21,440 Speaker 6: Like I think Gisel is shooting. 1906 01:38:21,680 --> 01:38:24,639 Speaker 13: Thirty four to thirty five percent from three at home 1907 01:38:24,720 --> 01:38:28,880 Speaker 13: and down to seventeen percent on the road, and like 1908 01:38:28,960 --> 01:38:32,640 Speaker 13: I think Day Day was averaging something around twelve points 1909 01:38:32,760 --> 01:38:35,680 Speaker 13: at home and eight on the road. So you're kind 1910 01:38:35,680 --> 01:38:38,639 Speaker 13: of just seeing that disparity, which is not too super 1911 01:38:38,760 --> 01:38:41,720 Speaker 13: rare in the game of college basketball, but you're kind 1912 01:38:41,720 --> 01:38:44,680 Speaker 13: of seeing those two key scores struggle playing in a 1913 01:38:44,720 --> 01:38:47,800 Speaker 13: way arenas. So getting back to their home arena is 1914 01:38:47,840 --> 01:38:50,200 Speaker 13: definitely a big reason. But the shortening of the rotation, 1915 01:38:50,479 --> 01:38:52,680 Speaker 13: it makes it easier to get in the flow, to 1916 01:38:52,680 --> 01:38:54,280 Speaker 13: get in a rhythm and just know that you're going 1917 01:38:54,320 --> 01:38:56,320 Speaker 13: to be out there for the majority of the game 1918 01:38:56,360 --> 01:38:58,080 Speaker 13: and every now and then movie a few minutes to 1919 01:38:58,560 --> 01:39:01,320 Speaker 13: come and get rest. But years it was great, and 1920 01:39:01,479 --> 01:39:04,800 Speaker 13: he had five threes, most since he had at Iowa 1921 01:39:04,920 --> 01:39:08,920 Speaker 13: State last season, and I think it the five threes 1922 01:39:09,000 --> 01:39:13,719 Speaker 13: last night he made in the combined eight games before that. 1923 01:39:13,840 --> 01:39:15,400 Speaker 6: He had a total of five threes. 1924 01:39:15,920 --> 01:39:17,600 Speaker 13: So it was kind of just a little bit of 1925 01:39:17,600 --> 01:39:21,160 Speaker 13: a coming out party for him from a shooting perspective, especially. 1926 01:39:20,880 --> 01:39:21,680 Speaker 6: From beyond the arc. 1927 01:39:22,479 --> 01:39:25,400 Speaker 13: But you've just got to see consistency from him, and like, 1928 01:39:25,479 --> 01:39:28,519 Speaker 13: it doesn't have to be seventeen or points or whatever. 1929 01:39:28,560 --> 01:39:30,840 Speaker 13: It was every night, but it's got to be something 1930 01:39:30,840 --> 01:39:33,439 Speaker 13: around eleven or twelve on an average. But you're seeing 1931 01:39:33,479 --> 01:39:37,000 Speaker 13: him struggle kind of every other game, and that's just 1932 01:39:37,120 --> 01:39:38,800 Speaker 13: not something that Cincinnati can rely on. 1933 01:39:40,080 --> 01:39:42,960 Speaker 3: Dayde Thomas. Now, he had eight points last night and 1934 01:39:43,240 --> 01:39:45,200 Speaker 3: he's been strong. I mean, he had nineteen in the 1935 01:39:45,200 --> 01:39:47,880 Speaker 3: win against Iowa State. He went on a road trip 1936 01:39:47,920 --> 01:39:50,240 Speaker 3: to the state of Arizona Keegan and came back with 1937 01:39:50,280 --> 01:39:55,160 Speaker 3: two points total over what fifty nine minutes of gameplay? 1938 01:39:56,280 --> 01:40:00,320 Speaker 3: Is there concern with you around Dayde Thomas? Feel like 1939 01:40:00,360 --> 01:40:02,120 Speaker 3: as a veteran on this team, he's one of the 1940 01:40:02,160 --> 01:40:04,639 Speaker 3: guys you should know what you're getting on a nightly basis, 1941 01:40:04,680 --> 01:40:06,880 Speaker 3: And it just doesn't seem like it's been there as 1942 01:40:06,920 --> 01:40:07,439 Speaker 3: of late. 1943 01:40:09,600 --> 01:40:12,639 Speaker 13: Not really part of it because I don't know where 1944 01:40:12,640 --> 01:40:16,200 Speaker 13: else you turn to, Like he's even got to figure 1945 01:40:16,200 --> 01:40:20,680 Speaker 13: it out. You're in deep, deep trouble bus. Like his 1946 01:40:20,920 --> 01:40:24,120 Speaker 13: game is still defense, as much as you want to 1947 01:40:24,160 --> 01:40:27,439 Speaker 13: say he's such a good offensive player, and he is, 1948 01:40:27,520 --> 01:40:30,240 Speaker 13: and he's one of Cincinnati's best offensive players when he's on. 1949 01:40:30,800 --> 01:40:33,200 Speaker 13: Like his job and his main job is still to 1950 01:40:33,280 --> 01:40:36,439 Speaker 13: shut down the opposing team's best player. 1951 01:40:36,479 --> 01:40:40,559 Speaker 6: And West had said it I think it was after the. 1952 01:40:40,560 --> 01:40:42,760 Speaker 13: Last home game before the road trip, so I think 1953 01:40:42,760 --> 01:40:45,000 Speaker 13: it was at the Colorado that they were trying to 1954 01:40:45,040 --> 01:40:47,479 Speaker 13: get him as much rest as possible because he was 1955 01:40:47,520 --> 01:40:48,360 Speaker 13: playing so much. 1956 01:40:48,760 --> 01:40:50,280 Speaker 6: So maybe that cut up to him. 1957 01:40:50,320 --> 01:40:53,240 Speaker 13: In Arizona, you're dealing with time change, you're dealing with 1958 01:40:53,320 --> 01:40:57,160 Speaker 13: playing at nine pm and ten pm your own time, 1959 01:40:57,760 --> 01:41:00,000 Speaker 13: and maybe that impacted it a little bit. 1960 01:41:00,080 --> 01:41:01,080 Speaker 6: It wouldn't surprise me. 1961 01:41:01,080 --> 01:41:05,960 Speaker 13: But you don't often see guys play thirty minutes and 1962 01:41:06,000 --> 01:41:08,360 Speaker 13: not score, especially when you've been a good score for 1963 01:41:08,400 --> 01:41:09,160 Speaker 13: the rest of the year. 1964 01:41:09,920 --> 01:41:12,120 Speaker 6: And that's kind of just like. 1965 01:41:12,760 --> 01:41:14,839 Speaker 13: It paints a picture of why the team is struggling 1966 01:41:14,880 --> 01:41:15,880 Speaker 13: so much because. 1967 01:41:15,680 --> 01:41:17,559 Speaker 6: Good teams like that does not happen. 1968 01:41:18,040 --> 01:41:19,960 Speaker 13: Teams don't want to play for an NCAA tournament bid 1969 01:41:20,000 --> 01:41:21,920 Speaker 13: and getting that large bid or that I want to 1970 01:41:21,920 --> 01:41:24,120 Speaker 13: compete for the top four or five teams in their conference, 1971 01:41:24,520 --> 01:41:27,040 Speaker 13: your best players. That just doesn't happen. And it seems 1972 01:41:27,040 --> 01:41:30,160 Speaker 13: like it's happening with Mustafa cham every now and then, 1973 01:41:30,200 --> 01:41:32,600 Speaker 13: which is or James at Dade Thomas. So it's a 1974 01:41:32,680 --> 01:41:36,120 Speaker 13: multi layered issue of just not having consistency and scoring 1975 01:41:36,760 --> 01:41:38,360 Speaker 13: and if you want to be able to go on 1976 01:41:38,400 --> 01:41:40,640 Speaker 13: a run and just try to end the season on 1977 01:41:40,720 --> 01:41:44,120 Speaker 13: a good note. That has to completely wash away or 1978 01:41:44,120 --> 01:41:46,719 Speaker 13: you're really going to struggle this team. 1979 01:41:46,880 --> 01:41:49,680 Speaker 3: Last night, shorthanded Shanna Bibe was in a boot and 1980 01:41:49,760 --> 01:41:54,160 Speaker 3: on crutches since her Harris was sick. Do we know 1981 01:41:54,360 --> 01:41:59,600 Speaker 3: much about Bibe's injury and what the short term or 1982 01:41:59,720 --> 01:42:02,680 Speaker 3: long term looks like on his impact playing games? 1983 01:42:04,160 --> 01:42:07,080 Speaker 13: Yeah, I think Wess said last night that he's expected 1984 01:42:07,080 --> 01:42:08,920 Speaker 13: to be out for an instended period of time, which 1985 01:42:09,400 --> 01:42:13,680 Speaker 13: is kind of weird because after the Arizona game, he 1986 01:42:13,760 --> 01:42:15,760 Speaker 13: was asking the radio if a Bible will be fine. 1987 01:42:15,760 --> 01:42:18,040 Speaker 13: He was asked an impressor if a Bible will be fine, 1988 01:42:18,240 --> 01:42:20,960 Speaker 13: and he doubled down both times saying yeah, I think 1989 01:42:20,960 --> 01:42:23,960 Speaker 13: he's okay, Like I believe he's fine, which that could 1990 01:42:24,000 --> 01:42:26,439 Speaker 13: have just been like he's super upset without the game 1991 01:42:26,479 --> 01:42:28,960 Speaker 13: when and he just wants to get the heck out. 1992 01:42:28,840 --> 01:42:30,639 Speaker 18: Of the arena and get to the hotel and figure 1993 01:42:30,640 --> 01:42:31,719 Speaker 18: out their travel situation. 1994 01:42:31,800 --> 01:42:33,479 Speaker 13: Maybe didn't consult with trainers, which. 1995 01:42:33,360 --> 01:42:35,680 Speaker 6: Is understandable, but it's definitely. 1996 01:42:35,400 --> 01:42:38,599 Speaker 13: A unique situation because he gets sports thirteen points against 1997 01:42:38,640 --> 01:42:41,519 Speaker 13: Arizona and everyone's like, Holy Craplica. This is a Shauna 1998 01:42:41,560 --> 01:42:43,519 Speaker 13: Bajah that we've kind of been expecting, and if we 1999 01:42:43,560 --> 01:42:46,120 Speaker 13: can get some version of this every now and then, 2000 01:42:46,640 --> 01:42:48,720 Speaker 13: that'll be a big help. And then he plays three 2001 01:42:48,760 --> 01:42:51,400 Speaker 13: minutes against Arizona State. It didn't look like there was 2002 01:42:51,400 --> 01:42:52,559 Speaker 13: a massive play where. 2003 01:42:52,360 --> 01:42:53,120 Speaker 6: He was hobbled. 2004 01:42:53,160 --> 01:42:55,639 Speaker 13: I think the only thing I saw is Terry mentioned 2005 01:42:55,640 --> 01:42:58,200 Speaker 13: that he had a heat rap on his knee, so 2006 01:42:58,880 --> 01:43:01,400 Speaker 13: he's expected to be out for an excited period of time. 2007 01:43:02,080 --> 01:43:04,960 Speaker 13: And then since your Harris was just an illness, so 2008 01:43:05,000 --> 01:43:07,519 Speaker 13: I would expect him to be able to go. West 2009 01:43:07,560 --> 01:43:10,519 Speaker 13: actually said that Tyler McKenley tough through an injury last 2010 01:43:10,600 --> 01:43:12,559 Speaker 13: night and played some good minutes, to credit to him. 2011 01:43:12,960 --> 01:43:16,479 Speaker 13: But Yeah, as much as I'll criticize Wes and like 2012 01:43:16,720 --> 01:43:19,880 Speaker 13: I'll talk about how like he has issues coaching and 2013 01:43:20,080 --> 01:43:22,679 Speaker 13: he hasn't kind of lived up the expectations, he has 2014 01:43:22,720 --> 01:43:26,160 Speaker 13: had some really really tough injury luck and it doesn't 2015 01:43:26,160 --> 01:43:29,479 Speaker 13: completely wipe away every criticism, but it's something that he's 2016 01:43:29,520 --> 01:43:32,320 Speaker 13: had to deal with more than most college basketball coaches 2017 01:43:32,360 --> 01:43:33,080 Speaker 13: throughout the country. 2018 01:43:33,720 --> 01:43:35,920 Speaker 3: If it is going to get turned around, and I 2019 01:43:36,040 --> 01:43:38,599 Speaker 3: do see the schedule will lighten up a little bit 2020 01:43:38,680 --> 01:43:41,840 Speaker 3: after Saturday, West Virginia UCF at home at Kansas State, 2021 01:43:41,920 --> 01:43:46,320 Speaker 3: you taugh at home, it's Houston. It's the hurdle that 2022 01:43:46,400 --> 01:43:49,479 Speaker 3: Houston has been. They've not beat Houston since John Brandon 2023 01:43:49,600 --> 01:43:52,840 Speaker 3: was the coach in February of twenty twenty. This team 2024 01:43:52,920 --> 01:43:55,840 Speaker 3: is also not one outside of fifth third Arena. The 2025 01:43:55,920 --> 01:43:59,360 Speaker 3: Houston game here it was up for grabs in the 2026 01:43:59,360 --> 01:44:01,840 Speaker 3: final few minut and you see just one away down 2027 01:44:01,880 --> 01:44:04,400 Speaker 3: the stretch. Is there anything that leads you to believer 2028 01:44:04,479 --> 01:44:07,400 Speaker 3: or gives you confidence that this team can go get 2029 01:44:07,400 --> 01:44:09,120 Speaker 3: over the hurdle at Houston on Saturday? 2030 01:44:10,800 --> 01:44:13,200 Speaker 13: If they're going to get over the hurdle, and when 2031 01:44:13,280 --> 01:44:16,240 Speaker 13: at Houston, it would be a year where the win 2032 01:44:16,640 --> 01:44:21,919 Speaker 13: basically means nothing. That would be the most likely scenario 2033 01:44:22,479 --> 01:44:26,320 Speaker 13: because like usually under West, like these teams go into 2034 01:44:26,320 --> 01:44:28,160 Speaker 13: these big time games where it can be a big 2035 01:44:28,200 --> 01:44:32,080 Speaker 13: resume builder and you're kind of forecasting, okay, final eight games, 2036 01:44:32,320 --> 01:44:35,160 Speaker 13: if they can go five and three, they should be able. 2037 01:44:34,920 --> 01:44:37,599 Speaker 6: To get in. And then you get to that last game. 2038 01:44:37,479 --> 01:44:41,120 Speaker 13: The eighth game, and then they just horrifically lose against 2039 01:44:41,320 --> 01:44:44,360 Speaker 13: Oklahoma State in twenty twenty three and at West Virginia 2040 01:44:44,479 --> 01:44:48,080 Speaker 13: down the stretch, you think about those games, but like 2041 01:44:48,200 --> 01:44:51,439 Speaker 13: with this season, like you, your chance of getting to 2042 01:44:51,439 --> 01:44:55,280 Speaker 13: an nca tournament without a run to win the Big Twelve. 2043 01:44:54,960 --> 01:44:58,760 Speaker 6: Tournament are very, very very low. So if it's going 2044 01:44:58,840 --> 01:44:59,799 Speaker 6: to happen, it would. 2045 01:44:59,640 --> 01:45:01,720 Speaker 13: Be the here where you're just a plan spoiler and 2046 01:45:01,800 --> 01:45:05,720 Speaker 13: trying to be annoying because I said I didn't see 2047 01:45:05,720 --> 01:45:08,200 Speaker 13: a path against Houston at the Third Arena, and then, 2048 01:45:08,240 --> 01:45:10,400 Speaker 13: like you said, it was up for grabs. I said 2049 01:45:10,400 --> 01:45:12,880 Speaker 13: I didn't see a path against Iowa State, and then 2050 01:45:12,880 --> 01:45:15,680 Speaker 13: they beat Iowa State. So I've kind of proven that 2051 01:45:15,800 --> 01:45:19,000 Speaker 13: I have no idea what I'm talking about. So you know, 2052 01:45:19,320 --> 01:45:21,639 Speaker 13: maybe I just picked on to win, like seventy eight 2053 01:45:21,720 --> 01:45:25,920 Speaker 13: to sixty four. It's a completely un characteristic score. 2054 01:45:26,000 --> 01:45:27,080 Speaker 6: But thinking you see in. 2055 01:45:27,040 --> 01:45:30,599 Speaker 3: Houston before I let you go on the football side 2056 01:45:30,640 --> 01:45:33,240 Speaker 3: of things, not for this current team. We have plenty 2057 01:45:33,240 --> 01:45:35,280 Speaker 3: of time to talk about that. But you're seeing a 2058 01:45:35,320 --> 01:45:39,479 Speaker 3: lot of these showcases for collegiate players going to the NFL. 2059 01:45:39,520 --> 01:45:43,839 Speaker 3: I know Dante Corleone has been taking part. Who stands 2060 01:45:43,880 --> 01:45:46,920 Speaker 3: to gain the most between now and the NFL Draft 2061 01:45:46,920 --> 01:45:48,320 Speaker 3: from a bearcat standpoint? 2062 01:45:48,360 --> 01:45:52,200 Speaker 6: In your opinion, Oh, that's a good question. 2063 01:45:52,640 --> 01:45:55,960 Speaker 13: Jake Goldey didn't participate in the Shrine Bowl because of 2064 01:45:56,640 --> 01:45:58,920 Speaker 13: an injury, and I know he didn't play in any. 2065 01:45:58,840 --> 01:46:00,840 Speaker 6: Bull practices playing the Bowl game. 2066 01:46:00,880 --> 01:46:02,720 Speaker 13: Part of that was probably because he was pepping for 2067 01:46:02,760 --> 01:46:03,599 Speaker 13: the NFL Draft. 2068 01:46:03,720 --> 01:46:05,439 Speaker 6: Part of it was because he had a shoulder injury. 2069 01:46:06,000 --> 01:46:09,280 Speaker 13: He would be my biggest name for that, but I 2070 01:46:09,360 --> 01:46:11,519 Speaker 13: just think the injuries are gonna kind of throw wrench 2071 01:46:11,520 --> 01:46:16,800 Speaker 13: into things. I think the biggest name is Jeff Caldwell 2072 01:46:17,040 --> 01:46:20,799 Speaker 13: just because when he tests at the Combine, the GM's 2073 01:46:20,800 --> 01:46:21,200 Speaker 13: are going to. 2074 01:46:21,240 --> 01:46:25,280 Speaker 6: Go like ballistic, Like this guy's six five. 2075 01:46:25,120 --> 01:46:27,920 Speaker 13: Six four, he's running a four to four and he 2076 01:46:28,040 --> 01:46:32,160 Speaker 13: broad jumps like eleven to nine. So like and you 2077 01:46:32,200 --> 01:46:33,760 Speaker 13: saw the catch he made it to Shine Bowl, you 2078 01:46:34,080 --> 01:46:35,760 Speaker 13: like in one on one to throw it in the game. 2079 01:46:36,240 --> 01:46:39,840 Speaker 13: His hands are really really good. Another guy is and 2080 01:46:39,920 --> 01:46:41,920 Speaker 13: you've probably been seeing it the Senior Bowl clips of 2081 01:46:42,000 --> 01:46:45,040 Speaker 13: Cyrus Allen. He's really really showing how good of a 2082 01:46:45,120 --> 01:46:48,280 Speaker 13: route runner he is, Like he's getting really easy separation. 2083 01:46:48,800 --> 01:46:52,599 Speaker 13: He didn't get a Combine invite, so that'll be interesting 2084 01:46:52,640 --> 01:46:55,720 Speaker 13: to see what his stock raises. But with both of 2085 01:46:55,720 --> 01:46:58,519 Speaker 13: those guys, I mean they were joys to deal with 2086 01:46:58,680 --> 01:47:00,920 Speaker 13: in the media, you see. So I think that they'll 2087 01:47:00,960 --> 01:47:03,800 Speaker 13: do really really good in meetings and their knowledge of 2088 01:47:03,840 --> 01:47:06,400 Speaker 13: the game. And I'm really really excited to get up 2089 01:47:06,400 --> 01:47:08,880 Speaker 13: to India to comment and watch them because they were 2090 01:47:08,880 --> 01:47:10,840 Speaker 13: good representatives at the UC and they were a lot 2091 01:47:10,840 --> 01:47:11,439 Speaker 13: of fun to watch. 2092 01:47:12,200 --> 01:47:16,439 Speaker 3: Have you allowed yourself to stop your Indiana Hoosiers National 2093 01:47:16,520 --> 01:47:18,519 Speaker 3: championship celebration ors that continue? 2094 01:47:18,600 --> 01:47:18,880 Speaker 4: Keegan? 2095 01:47:20,280 --> 01:47:21,160 Speaker 6: Absolutely not. 2096 01:47:21,520 --> 01:47:24,560 Speaker 13: And you know, is there a worst school in the 2097 01:47:24,600 --> 01:47:27,280 Speaker 13: country to be than Purdue right now?

I'm always appreciative to be on the air, 2175 01:50:58,360 --> 01:51:00,559 Speaker 4: ready and rare to go to talk about professional wrestling, 2176 01:51:00,960 --> 01:51:03,559 Speaker 4: especially with the Royal Rumble this weekend. It's my favorite 2177 01:51:03,560 --> 01:51:06,320 Speaker 4: event of the entire year. It's the kickoff to WrestleMania season. 2178 01:51:06,360 --> 01:51:09,599 Speaker 4: But it's kind of bittersweet the fact that we're doing 2179 01:51:09,640 --> 01:51:15,320 Speaker 4: this interview and I'm not, you know, Boots on the ground. 2180 01:51:16,160 --> 01:51:19,280 Speaker 3: King Abdullah Financial Distinct in Saudi Arabia. 2181 01:51:19,360 --> 01:51:22,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not in Saudi Arabia. Not in Saudi Arabia 2182 01:51:22,280 --> 01:51:23,840 Speaker 4: for the event. This is one of those ones that 2183 01:51:23,880 --> 01:51:27,840 Speaker 4: I always tried to go to every single year, and unfortunately, 2184 01:51:28,439 --> 01:51:30,400 Speaker 4: for obvious reasons, I'm not able to go, but I'm 2185 01:51:30,400 --> 01:51:32,000 Speaker 4: happy to be here in person talking with you. 2186 01:51:32,080 --> 01:51:36,600 Speaker 3: They essentially built this from the ground up for this 2187 01:51:36,680 --> 01:51:38,720 Speaker 3: event in Saudi Arabia. They built it out of like 2188 01:51:38,720 --> 01:51:42,000 Speaker 3: a dirt parking lot. Yeah, they literally built this. They 2189 01:51:42,000 --> 01:51:45,639 Speaker 3: started construction on the fifth of this month, and it's done, 2190 01:51:45,760 --> 01:51:48,720 Speaker 3: and it's done unbelievable. That just goes to show you 2191 01:51:48,800 --> 01:51:49,800 Speaker 3: how much money they. 2192 01:51:49,760 --> 01:51:51,320 Speaker 4: Got over there. It can be done. 2193 01:51:51,320 --> 01:51:51,599 Speaker 12: Now. 2194 01:51:52,240 --> 01:51:54,679 Speaker 3: I do want to preface this. We did this segment 2195 01:51:54,800 --> 01:51:59,360 Speaker 3: last year and you incorrectly predicted the winner of the 2196 01:51:59,439 --> 01:52:05,400 Speaker 3: Royal Rumble. You you failed to see John Cena losing. 2197 01:52:05,680 --> 01:52:08,679 Speaker 3: I did, Yeah, Jay Usso pulled off the upset last year. 2198 01:52:08,680 --> 01:52:12,200 Speaker 3: I got so blinded by the quote unquote obvious choice, 2199 01:52:12,240 --> 01:52:16,240 Speaker 3: as many did, by the way. Look, it was just 2200 01:52:16,439 --> 01:52:19,200 Speaker 3: it seemed like such a foregone conclusion that John Cena 2201 01:52:19,240 --> 01:52:22,440 Speaker 3: would be wrestling for the world title at his final WrestleMania, 2202 01:52:22,760 --> 01:52:26,760 Speaker 3: which he did and he won it last year. We 2203 01:52:26,800 --> 01:52:28,840 Speaker 3: all knew that match was going to be taking place. 2204 01:52:29,560 --> 01:52:32,519 Speaker 3: It just seemed like the Royal Rumble would be, you know, 2205 01:52:32,560 --> 01:52:34,120 Speaker 3: a great place for him to make a little bit 2206 01:52:34,120 --> 01:52:36,599 Speaker 3: more history last year, becoming a three time Royal Rumble winner. 2207 01:52:36,640 --> 01:52:38,479 Speaker 3: There's only been one of those ever in Stone Cold 2208 01:52:38,479 --> 01:52:41,400 Speaker 3: Steve Austin. Now Cody Rhodes has the opportunity to become 2209 01:52:41,400 --> 01:52:44,160 Speaker 3: a three time Royal Rumble winner this weekend, as does 2210 01:52:44,200 --> 01:52:47,280 Speaker 3: Brock Lesner. So maybe one of those two guys ties 2211 01:52:47,320 --> 01:52:49,760 Speaker 3: Austin for the most wins ever. But yeah, I was 2212 01:52:49,840 --> 01:52:55,320 Speaker 3: so blinded by the obvious choice in John Cena that 2213 01:52:55,640 --> 01:53:00,000 Speaker 3: I did not see the setup that was jay Us. 2214 01:53:01,520 --> 01:53:06,680 Speaker 5: Shout out Joe Danmon that you know he was. 2215 01:53:06,960 --> 01:53:08,840 Speaker 4: He was kind of the obvious choice of what they 2216 01:53:08,840 --> 01:53:11,479 Speaker 4: were building up last year, and they did a really 2217 01:53:11,479 --> 01:53:13,320 Speaker 4: really good job of hiding that. And I'm wondering if 2218 01:53:13,360 --> 01:53:14,840 Speaker 4: maybe there's something similar for it this year. 2219 01:53:14,840 --> 01:53:16,400 Speaker 3: I feel like there's been a lot of hiding from 2220 01:53:16,400 --> 01:53:19,439 Speaker 3: the WWE in the last year, the seth Rolins situation, 2221 01:53:20,200 --> 01:53:22,880 Speaker 3: many others. I can't help, but wonder, are you on 2222 01:53:22,920 --> 01:53:24,919 Speaker 3: the take now as an insider? 2223 01:53:24,960 --> 01:53:27,800 Speaker 4: Are you? Are you just here trying to direct the 2224 01:53:27,840 --> 01:53:30,280 Speaker 4: audience in a different way? Is that? 2225 01:53:30,400 --> 01:53:32,120 Speaker 3: Is there an ulterior motive at stake here? 2226 01:53:32,280 --> 01:53:32,479 Speaker 6: No? 2227 01:53:32,600 --> 01:53:33,639 Speaker 5: Are you still on our side? 2228 01:53:33,720 --> 01:53:38,920 Speaker 4: I am still on your side as far as you know, Geez, 2229 01:53:38,960 --> 01:53:41,840 Speaker 4: I am having a to make trouble over here. Welcome 2230 01:53:41,880 --> 01:53:44,160 Speaker 4: to the Welcome to the fifteen thirty studio. Yeah, I'm 2231 01:53:44,200 --> 01:53:46,120 Speaker 4: just gonna hold this thing up, you know, like I'm 2232 01:53:46,160 --> 01:53:49,880 Speaker 4: about to. This doesn't happen it or something, No, it doesn't. 2233 01:53:50,200 --> 01:53:52,519 Speaker 4: But yeah, no, look I am. 2234 01:53:52,720 --> 01:53:53,240 Speaker 5: I am not a. 2235 01:53:53,280 --> 01:53:56,960 Speaker 4: Quote unquote insider for those exact reasons that you would imagine, 2236 01:53:57,000 --> 01:54:01,439 Speaker 4: because unlike the NFL or Major League Baseball or anything like, 2237 01:54:01,479 --> 01:54:05,479 Speaker 4: you can report something that is factually accurate at the 2238 01:54:05,479 --> 01:54:07,880 Speaker 4: time that you reported it, and then a day later 2239 01:54:07,960 --> 01:54:11,040 Speaker 4: it is completely wrong. So it's just one of those 2240 01:54:11,080 --> 01:54:13,000 Speaker 4: things where I just don't want to deal with the 2241 01:54:13,000 --> 01:54:17,879 Speaker 4: scrutiny of being wrong about anything that I knew was accurate. 2242 01:54:18,000 --> 01:54:20,559 Speaker 4: But I'm I'm yeah, it's just so much changes on 2243 01:54:20,600 --> 01:54:23,439 Speaker 4: a constant basis. I would rather do what I do 2244 01:54:23,520 --> 01:54:26,479 Speaker 4: for Sports Illustrated, which is talk to the talent themselves. 2245 01:54:26,520 --> 01:54:28,000 Speaker 4: I got a big interview I'm going to be dropping 2246 01:54:28,320 --> 01:54:32,840 Speaker 4: later this evening, but for the takedown on SI, But yeah, 2247 01:54:32,880 --> 01:54:36,320 Speaker 4: I would. I would rather just get the information on 2248 01:54:36,360 --> 01:54:38,640 Speaker 4: the record than trying to rely on sources in an 2249 01:54:38,640 --> 01:54:40,360 Speaker 4: industry where everything is constantly changing. 2250 01:54:40,400 --> 01:54:44,080 Speaker 3: Outside of the men's and Women's Royal Rumble also get 2251 01:54:44,080 --> 01:54:46,720 Speaker 3: a chance for the ww Championship. Drew McIntyre, who just 2252 01:54:46,760 --> 01:54:49,280 Speaker 3: wanted off Cody Roads Sammy's ain and it feels like 2253 01:54:49,760 --> 01:54:51,520 Speaker 3: everyone keeps wanting to sam'se ain and ever gonna get 2254 01:54:51,520 --> 01:54:51,960 Speaker 3: over the hump? 2255 01:54:52,000 --> 01:54:52,800 Speaker 4: Is he ever going to do it? 2256 01:54:53,440 --> 01:54:56,520 Speaker 3: I just have a hard time believing that, as new 2257 01:54:56,560 --> 01:54:58,640 Speaker 3: as it is for Drew McIntyre being the champion, that 2258 01:54:58,640 --> 01:55:01,200 Speaker 3: they would take that title off him this quick. How 2259 01:55:01,200 --> 01:55:01,960 Speaker 3: do you see that one going? 2260 01:55:02,360 --> 01:55:02,560 Speaker 5: Yeah? 2261 01:55:02,600 --> 01:55:06,040 Speaker 4: No, this is the slam dunk of the of the night. 2262 01:55:06,280 --> 01:55:10,280 Speaker 4: Unfortunately for sam Zay and fans, He's not winning the 2263 01:55:10,360 --> 01:55:13,400 Speaker 4: ww Championship this weekend. This is why I didn't want 2264 01:55:13,480 --> 01:55:15,600 Speaker 4: him to win the Fatal four Way and Saturday Nights 2265 01:55:15,640 --> 01:55:20,240 Speaker 4: made event last weekend in his hometown of Montreal, because 2266 01:55:20,320 --> 01:55:23,000 Speaker 4: he was just going to lose to Drew McIntyre again 2267 01:55:23,240 --> 01:55:26,440 Speaker 4: this weekend in Saudi Arabia. I understand why they gave 2268 01:55:26,520 --> 01:55:29,520 Speaker 4: him this match. First Off, he wins in Montreal, gets 2269 01:55:29,520 --> 01:55:32,800 Speaker 4: a big pop. He's beloved in Saudi Arabia. He's going 2270 01:55:32,840 --> 01:55:35,800 Speaker 4: to get a huge pop there. But he's not going 2271 01:55:35,920 --> 01:55:39,200 Speaker 4: to win the WWE Championship. They're just not going to 2272 01:55:39,240 --> 01:55:41,400 Speaker 4: take the title off of Drew McIntyre in his first defense. 2273 01:55:41,600 --> 01:55:44,440 Speaker 4: I have been shocked before by WWE. This would be 2274 01:55:44,480 --> 01:55:46,960 Speaker 4: an all time shocker for me to have Drew, who 2275 01:55:47,040 --> 01:55:50,040 Speaker 4: has chased this title for five years, lose it in 2276 01:55:50,080 --> 01:55:52,520 Speaker 4: his very first defense ahead of WrestleMania season. It was 2277 01:55:52,560 --> 01:55:54,600 Speaker 4: shocking enough that they took the title off of Cody 2278 01:55:54,680 --> 01:55:57,200 Speaker 4: Roads ahead of WrestleMania season, and that was something that 2279 01:55:57,240 --> 01:56:00,600 Speaker 4: Cody himself behind the scenes reportedly pushed for because he 2280 01:56:00,640 --> 01:56:02,200 Speaker 4: felt like it would be fresher for him to be 2281 01:56:02,320 --> 01:56:03,920 Speaker 4: in the chase. So I still think it's going to 2282 01:56:04,000 --> 01:56:09,200 Speaker 4: be some form of Cody, maybe Jacob Fattou, Drew McIntire WrestleMania, 2283 01:56:09,240 --> 01:56:11,320 Speaker 4: that kind of situation. I don't know what Sammy Zain 2284 01:56:11,440 --> 01:56:16,720 Speaker 4: is doing unless Tony, unless it's a new year but 2285 01:56:16,760 --> 01:56:19,200 Speaker 4: a different ginger. Maybe they pulled what they did with 2286 01:56:19,240 --> 01:56:23,160 Speaker 4: Becky Lynch in twenty nineteen with Sammy Zain this year, 2287 01:56:23,520 --> 01:56:27,040 Speaker 4: where he loses his WWE Championship match and then turns 2288 01:56:27,080 --> 01:56:29,200 Speaker 4: around and wins the Royal Rumble at the end of 2289 01:56:29,240 --> 01:56:31,120 Speaker 4: the night and goes on maybe to face something the 2290 01:56:31,280 --> 01:56:34,080 Speaker 4: Punk for the title at WrestleMania. That's a direction they 2291 01:56:34,080 --> 01:56:36,840 Speaker 4: could go. I'm not sure who's facing CM Punk right 2292 01:56:36,840 --> 01:56:38,760 Speaker 4: now for the world title at Mess WrestleMania. It could 2293 01:56:38,800 --> 01:56:39,400 Speaker 4: be Sammy Zain. 2294 01:56:39,640 --> 01:56:39,840 Speaker 17: Yeah. 2295 01:56:39,920 --> 01:56:42,960 Speaker 3: You also you also have the lose and you retire 2296 01:56:43,000 --> 01:56:46,960 Speaker 3: match essentially for AJ Styles against Gunter, who is now 2297 01:56:47,000 --> 01:56:51,840 Speaker 3: become this legend killer across WWE. He's retiring Oldberg and 2298 01:56:51,920 --> 01:56:55,720 Speaker 3: John Cena, right, and now here's AJ Styles. Is this 2299 01:56:56,280 --> 01:56:59,560 Speaker 3: the end for AJ Styles? And Gunter kind of retains 2300 01:56:59,560 --> 01:57:02,280 Speaker 3: and not retains but he continues this run? Or does 2301 01:57:02,320 --> 01:57:03,520 Speaker 3: AJ Styles get this one? 2302 01:57:03,680 --> 01:57:03,840 Speaker 17: Man? 2303 01:57:04,200 --> 01:57:07,400 Speaker 4: WWE really wants you to think that AJ Styles is 2304 01:57:07,480 --> 01:57:10,040 Speaker 4: retiring this weekend, the way that they have set this up, 2305 01:57:10,600 --> 01:57:12,600 Speaker 4: the way that he's all of a sudden he's wrestling 2306 01:57:12,600 --> 01:57:15,040 Speaker 4: shins k Knakamora, one of his longtime rivals, at Saturday 2307 01:57:15,080 --> 01:57:18,320 Speaker 4: Night's main event. Out of nowhere. He's wrestling CM Punk. 2308 01:57:18,360 --> 01:57:20,840 Speaker 4: First time they've gone one on one in a WWE ring, 2309 01:57:20,840 --> 01:57:22,720 Speaker 4: first time they've gone one on one in since two 2310 01:57:22,760 --> 01:57:25,120 Speaker 4: thousand and four on Monday Night Raw for the world 2311 01:57:25,120 --> 01:57:27,080 Speaker 4: title which was ruined by Finn Balor, who will talk 2312 01:57:27,080 --> 01:57:31,840 Speaker 4: about here shortly, but you know, shins K Nakamora is 2313 01:57:31,880 --> 01:57:34,080 Speaker 4: putting out this post on social media that's now been 2314 01:57:34,120 --> 01:57:36,320 Speaker 4: deleted that oh yeah, Aj Styles told me he was 2315 01:57:36,320 --> 01:57:39,840 Speaker 4: retiring at the Royal Rumble. They are setting this up 2316 01:57:40,240 --> 01:57:41,960 Speaker 4: so much. They really want you to think that this 2317 01:57:42,000 --> 01:57:43,880 Speaker 4: is going to be his final match, which is smart 2318 01:57:43,880 --> 01:57:46,280 Speaker 4: marketing because that's going to get more people to tune in. Sure, 2319 01:57:47,520 --> 01:57:50,920 Speaker 4: but there is just this I don't know, there's this 2320 01:57:51,040 --> 01:57:53,400 Speaker 4: cloud that's hanging over this, and it goes back to 2321 01:57:53,480 --> 01:57:57,200 Speaker 4: SummerSlam with the faked injury by Seth Rollins, which was 2322 01:57:57,640 --> 01:58:01,720 Speaker 4: I think done largely for w Unreal Season two, which 2323 01:58:01,720 --> 01:58:05,400 Speaker 4: is now on Netflix. They documented that whole thing. A 2324 01:58:05,440 --> 01:58:07,040 Speaker 4: lot of people look at that show and go, man, 2325 01:58:07,080 --> 01:58:09,320 Speaker 4: it's killing k Fabe. I think what that thing has 2326 01:58:09,360 --> 01:58:13,200 Speaker 4: done is added another layer of nu wants to k 2327 01:58:13,320 --> 01:58:15,680 Speaker 4: Fabe where it would not surprise me at all if 2328 01:58:15,760 --> 01:58:19,640 Speaker 4: Wwe told Shinske to put that post out there to 2329 01:58:19,800 --> 01:58:23,680 Speaker 4: create this belief that Aj Styles is going to walk 2330 01:58:23,680 --> 01:58:27,880 Speaker 4: away and then he beats Gunther on Saturday to continue 2331 01:58:28,040 --> 01:58:32,000 Speaker 4: his career. It's such a fifty to fifty thing for me. 2332 01:58:32,240 --> 01:58:35,360 Speaker 4: Like just this morning, a report came out that Styles 2333 01:58:35,360 --> 01:58:40,760 Speaker 4: has trademarked his name and his A one logo. Look 2334 01:58:40,880 --> 01:58:43,720 Speaker 4: he's talking about on screen like, this could be the 2335 01:58:43,800 --> 01:58:46,640 Speaker 4: end of my WWE career. There's a lot of people 2336 01:58:46,760 --> 01:58:48,960 Speaker 4: think maybe he wrestles for TNA a couple more times. 2337 01:58:48,960 --> 01:58:51,680 Speaker 4: Maybe he goes and wrestles somebody like a Will Osprey 2338 01:58:51,720 --> 01:58:54,280 Speaker 4: and aew. He did say that this was going to 2339 01:58:54,280 --> 01:58:58,680 Speaker 4: be his final year in professional wrestling. Maybe he has 2340 01:58:58,680 --> 01:59:01,920 Speaker 4: a few more left in him elsewhere, could be the 2341 01:59:02,040 --> 01:59:03,720 Speaker 4: end of his run. It just seems so weird that 2342 01:59:03,800 --> 01:59:07,200 Speaker 4: his WWE career would end on a pay per view 2343 01:59:07,360 --> 01:59:09,640 Speaker 4: in Saudi Arabia on a Saturday afternoon here in the 2344 01:59:09,720 --> 01:59:12,160 Speaker 4: United States. But at the same time, he debuted at 2345 01:59:12,160 --> 01:59:14,040 Speaker 4: the Royal Rumble ten years ago, so there's kind of 2346 01:59:14,040 --> 01:59:16,800 Speaker 4: a full circleness to this. I'm so fifty to fifty 2347 01:59:16,840 --> 01:59:19,320 Speaker 4: on it right now. There's just something that doesn't pass 2348 01:59:19,360 --> 01:59:20,800 Speaker 4: the smell test to me on this one. So I 2349 01:59:20,840 --> 01:59:22,720 Speaker 4: am picking aj Styles to win, but I could be 2350 01:59:22,760 --> 01:59:25,080 Speaker 4: firmly wrong on that Women's Royal Rumble. 2351 01:59:25,440 --> 01:59:28,200 Speaker 3: The two main events obviously of the card, you have 2352 01:59:28,320 --> 01:59:32,800 Speaker 3: the confirmed entrance Rhea Ripley's Charlotte Flair. Liv Morgan is 2353 01:59:32,840 --> 01:59:35,760 Speaker 3: going to be in this match, along with many others. 2354 01:59:35,800 --> 01:59:37,720 Speaker 3: One of the best things about the Royal Rumble for 2355 01:59:37,760 --> 01:59:42,000 Speaker 3: me is just the unknown You how you get legends 2356 01:59:42,080 --> 01:59:44,240 Speaker 3: or people you're not expecting to show up as one 2357 01:59:44,280 --> 01:59:48,800 Speaker 3: of the thirty entrants that come out, but from a 2358 01:59:48,840 --> 01:59:51,560 Speaker 3: card that we know standpoint and who you think has 2359 01:59:51,600 --> 01:59:53,160 Speaker 3: the edge? What do you think of the women's side. 2360 01:59:53,880 --> 01:59:57,160 Speaker 4: It's a really stacked Royal Rumble this year with there's 2361 01:59:57,200 --> 01:59:59,320 Speaker 4: seventeen names that have been announced. You didn't bring up 2362 01:59:59,480 --> 02:00:02,000 Speaker 4: Becky lenn She is the greatest female wrestler of all time. 2363 02:00:02,480 --> 02:00:04,840 Speaker 4: Not just her saying it us, it's Sports Illustrated have 2364 02:00:04,920 --> 02:00:06,920 Speaker 4: said it. You may have heard that a few times 2365 02:00:06,960 --> 02:00:11,480 Speaker 4: on WWE programming with him last year. But to me, 2366 02:00:12,400 --> 02:00:16,800 Speaker 4: recent creative decisions have narrowed this feel down to a 2367 02:00:16,840 --> 02:00:18,960 Speaker 4: two horse race for me, and I don't even know 2368 02:00:19,000 --> 02:00:22,920 Speaker 4: if one of them is going to be competing on Saturday. 2369 02:00:23,040 --> 02:00:27,919 Speaker 4: I think it boils down to a potential returning Biyonca 2370 02:00:27,920 --> 02:00:28,400 Speaker 4: bell Air. 2371 02:00:29,160 --> 02:00:30,160 Speaker 5: That's my pick for the win. 2372 02:00:30,680 --> 02:00:33,040 Speaker 4: Here's what I want you to the next time you 2373 02:00:33,120 --> 02:00:35,680 Speaker 4: have Bob Man gene On, do me a favor and 2374 02:00:35,800 --> 02:00:39,680 Speaker 4: ask him how a broken knuckle can keep somebody out 2375 02:00:39,720 --> 02:00:43,840 Speaker 4: For nine months. She has not wrestled since she broke 2376 02:00:43,880 --> 02:00:49,160 Speaker 4: her knuckle at WrestleMania forty one last April. There has 2377 02:00:49,240 --> 02:00:52,680 Speaker 4: not been a whiff of a report about her possibly 2378 02:00:52,720 --> 02:00:54,840 Speaker 4: being back this weekend. If she shows up, I think 2379 02:00:54,880 --> 02:00:57,920 Speaker 4: she has to be an instant favorite. But for me, 2380 02:00:58,320 --> 02:01:02,920 Speaker 4: it just feels like it's Lived morgana She has always 2381 02:01:02,960 --> 02:01:05,400 Speaker 4: been the bride's mate, never the bride in this match. 2382 02:01:05,440 --> 02:01:07,960 Speaker 4: She's competed in all eight Women's Royal Rumbles. She's been 2383 02:01:07,960 --> 02:01:11,680 Speaker 4: a runner up twice. The first thing that they did 2384 02:01:11,760 --> 02:01:14,720 Speaker 4: when she came back from her shoulder injury in December 2385 02:01:15,080 --> 02:01:18,200 Speaker 4: was tease her and Stephanie Vickaerr for the women's World Championship. 2386 02:01:18,240 --> 02:01:19,920 Speaker 4: At some point, I think that's the match we're going 2387 02:01:20,000 --> 02:01:24,080 Speaker 4: to get at WrestleMania. I would say Rha Ripley would 2388 02:01:24,120 --> 02:01:25,680 Speaker 4: be a favorite, I would say Eo Sky would be 2389 02:01:25,680 --> 02:01:27,160 Speaker 4: a favorite, and I would say Becky Lynch would be 2390 02:01:27,160 --> 02:01:29,960 Speaker 4: a favorite. But they all three one separate championships within 2391 02:01:30,000 --> 02:01:32,800 Speaker 4: the last month, which makes me think they have different plans. 2392 02:01:33,120 --> 02:01:35,840 Speaker 4: WWE does in place for them at WrestleMania this year, 2393 02:01:36,080 --> 02:01:38,839 Speaker 4: So it comes down to Live Morgan and Biancabella Kay. 2394 02:01:39,160 --> 02:01:42,640 Speaker 3: The men's side. I think this is loaded with talent. 2395 02:01:43,720 --> 02:01:46,320 Speaker 3: We just found out yesterday. I saw the McAfee show 2396 02:01:46,360 --> 02:01:48,960 Speaker 3: that brock Lesner is going to be in the Royal Rumble. 2397 02:01:49,280 --> 02:01:51,280 Speaker 3: Roman Reigns is going to be in the Royal Rumble, 2398 02:01:51,360 --> 02:01:56,040 Speaker 3: Cody Rhodes, Jay Usso Gunter will be in Royal Rumble, Penta, 2399 02:01:56,240 --> 02:01:59,920 Speaker 3: some young up and coming ms. Yeah, raymistere Oba Femi is. 2400 02:02:00,080 --> 02:02:01,680 Speaker 4: Going to be in it. That's his debut. That's a 2401 02:02:01,760 --> 02:02:03,400 Speaker 4: dark horse candidate. I'm not picking him to win, but 2402 02:02:03,440 --> 02:02:04,800 Speaker 4: what a statement it would be if he comes in 2403 02:02:04,840 --> 02:02:05,360 Speaker 4: and he wins it. 2404 02:02:05,440 --> 02:02:09,000 Speaker 3: You obviously have the vision with Logan, Paul Bronson, Reid 2405 02:02:09,120 --> 02:02:14,160 Speaker 3: bron Breaker, Austin theory will seth Rollins magically return early 2406 02:02:14,200 --> 02:02:16,520 Speaker 3: from an injury and be a part of this. Our 2407 02:02:16,640 --> 02:02:19,560 Speaker 3: Truth is going to be in the Royal Rumble. But 2408 02:02:19,640 --> 02:02:22,480 Speaker 3: this is it's star stacked, and who knows what other 2409 02:02:22,560 --> 02:02:26,560 Speaker 3: surprises they have. My pick for this year's Royal Rumble 2410 02:02:26,600 --> 02:02:29,280 Speaker 3: is bron Breaker. I think bron Breaker is on a 2411 02:02:29,840 --> 02:02:33,080 Speaker 3: upward trajectory to the moon right now in WWE. How 2412 02:02:33,120 --> 02:02:34,360 Speaker 3: do you see this one playing out? 2413 02:02:34,640 --> 02:02:37,800 Speaker 4: I don't mind the bron Breaker pick, but again, I 2414 02:02:37,960 --> 02:02:40,760 Speaker 4: just have this gut feeling that it's not going to 2415 02:02:40,800 --> 02:02:46,160 Speaker 4: be him. He had his title opportunity against CM Punk 2416 02:02:46,240 --> 02:02:50,000 Speaker 4: on the January fifth episode of Ron Netflix, the big 2417 02:02:50,000 --> 02:02:55,120 Speaker 4: one year anniversary show, he came up short. I just 2418 02:02:55,160 --> 02:02:58,040 Speaker 4: feel like they're hoping that Seth. I don't think he's 2419 02:02:58,080 --> 02:02:59,640 Speaker 4: going to be at the Rumble. He just separated his 2420 02:02:59,640 --> 02:03:02,400 Speaker 4: shoulder or torres rotator cuff in October and had to 2421 02:03:02,400 --> 02:03:04,480 Speaker 4: have surgery, so he's not even gonna be able to 2422 02:03:04,520 --> 02:03:07,720 Speaker 4: rehab until February, so we're just coming up on that. 2423 02:03:07,760 --> 02:03:09,280 Speaker 4: I don't think he'll be there this weekend, but I 2424 02:03:09,320 --> 02:03:11,080 Speaker 4: think there is a hope that he is going to 2425 02:03:11,080 --> 02:03:15,080 Speaker 4: be ready to compete at WrestleMania, and if that's the case, 2426 02:03:15,120 --> 02:03:17,720 Speaker 4: bron Breaker is clearly the opponent because bron Breaker is 2427 02:03:17,720 --> 02:03:19,800 Speaker 4: the one who turned on Seth and was the real 2428 02:03:19,840 --> 02:03:22,200 Speaker 4: cause of his injury and storyline. So that's I think 2429 02:03:22,240 --> 02:03:25,360 Speaker 4: they're what they're setting up there. Again, I feel like 2430 02:03:25,440 --> 02:03:27,120 Speaker 4: they want you to think it's going to be Cody Rhodes. 2431 02:03:27,160 --> 02:03:28,520 Speaker 4: They want you to think it's going to be Roman 2432 02:03:28,560 --> 02:03:30,560 Speaker 4: Reigns or Brock Lesner or one of these guys. But again, 2433 02:03:30,600 --> 02:03:32,880 Speaker 4: I go back to last year. I did not see 2434 02:03:32,960 --> 02:03:37,600 Speaker 4: jay usso coming. What am I not seeing coming? This 2435 02:03:37,720 --> 02:03:39,960 Speaker 4: year or maybe somebody else. What are they not seeing 2436 02:03:39,960 --> 02:03:44,720 Speaker 4: that they should be paying attention to possibility? He's I 2437 02:03:44,720 --> 02:03:48,280 Speaker 4: think he'll be in the match. I think that's a surproject. Yes, yes, 2438 02:03:48,400 --> 02:03:50,120 Speaker 4: I do think Chris Jericho will be there. That's not 2439 02:03:50,120 --> 02:03:56,520 Speaker 4: me reporting anything that's got feeling, no, but I do 2440 02:03:56,600 --> 02:03:59,680 Speaker 4: think there is something to what they're doing with Finn 2441 02:03:59,720 --> 02:04:03,880 Speaker 4: Valley right now. Okay, they remember they film that segment 2442 02:04:03,960 --> 02:04:06,080 Speaker 4: on Monday Night Raw where he tried to enter into 2443 02:04:06,120 --> 02:04:10,000 Speaker 4: the Royal Rumble and Adam Pierce said sorry, we're full up, 2444 02:04:11,240 --> 02:04:13,839 Speaker 4: and then later in the night he's beating up CM 2445 02:04:13,840 --> 02:04:16,600 Speaker 4: Punk and ruining the main event between him and aj Styles, 2446 02:04:17,280 --> 02:04:21,720 Speaker 4: which one showed me that the Punk Balor rivalry is 2447 02:04:21,960 --> 02:04:24,520 Speaker 4: just getting started. And I think he is going to 2448 02:04:24,600 --> 02:04:27,800 Speaker 4: find a way, somehow, some way to get into the 2449 02:04:27,880 --> 02:04:30,920 Speaker 4: Royal Rumble match, and if he does, he is my 2450 02:04:31,200 --> 02:04:35,280 Speaker 4: instant pick to win it. I think the WWE's finally 2451 02:04:35,280 --> 02:04:38,280 Speaker 4: setting up Finn for this long awaited singles run that 2452 02:04:38,520 --> 02:04:41,440 Speaker 4: so many of us have been clamoring for. Do we 2453 02:04:41,480 --> 02:04:44,080 Speaker 4: get the Demon again? I think you get it at WrestleMania. 2454 02:04:44,120 --> 02:04:46,480 Speaker 4: I think you get a I think you get a 2455 02:04:46,560 --> 02:04:50,720 Speaker 4: judgment Day Demon Finn Balor at WrestleMania potentially against CM Punk. 2456 02:04:50,800 --> 02:04:53,120 Speaker 4: If that's the way that they go, sign me a 2457 02:04:53,200 --> 02:04:56,840 Speaker 4: hell up because remember, at the end of Survivor series 2458 02:04:56,880 --> 02:04:58,880 Speaker 4: war games in November, it was clear that we were 2459 02:04:58,920 --> 02:05:01,640 Speaker 4: heading towards Roman reigns CM Punk sure or Roman rains 2460 02:05:01,640 --> 02:05:04,280 Speaker 4: and Cody Rhodes excuse me, and they blew that up 2461 02:05:04,960 --> 02:05:07,920 Speaker 4: because reportedly Triple H didn't want to give us something 2462 02:05:07,920 --> 02:05:10,440 Speaker 4: that we had seen before. So I'm supposed to think 2463 02:05:10,480 --> 02:05:13,520 Speaker 4: that they blew up Cody Rhodes versus Roman reigns to 2464 02:05:13,560 --> 02:05:16,320 Speaker 4: give us Roman reigns against CM Punk, which we just 2465 02:05:16,320 --> 02:05:18,640 Speaker 4: saw last year. That doesn't make any sense to me. 2466 02:05:18,840 --> 02:05:22,160 Speaker 4: I'm something is not passing the smell test. I think 2467 02:05:22,200 --> 02:05:24,080 Speaker 4: we're going to get another Shock win this year a 2468 02:05:24,160 --> 02:05:27,360 Speaker 4: La jay Usso I'm right now I am picking Finn 2469 02:05:27,360 --> 02:05:28,480 Speaker 4: Balor to win the Royal Rumble. 2470 02:05:28,520 --> 02:05:30,120 Speaker 5: I like this real quick. 2471 02:05:30,360 --> 02:05:34,520 Speaker 3: Adam Pierce, the general manager of Monday Night Row, recently 2472 02:05:34,520 --> 02:05:37,520 Speaker 3: has been there's been these phone calls coming in from 2473 02:05:37,800 --> 02:05:40,800 Speaker 3: someone that's clearly in a power position, a high up. 2474 02:05:41,280 --> 02:05:44,240 Speaker 3: People obviously are going to wonder who this is. 2475 02:05:44,240 --> 02:05:44,840 Speaker 5: Is it the Rock? 2476 02:05:44,960 --> 02:05:47,960 Speaker 3: Is it Vince McMahon, Is it someone who is obviously 2477 02:05:47,960 --> 02:05:50,400 Speaker 3: striking fear and Adam Pierce to make the decisions. 2478 02:05:49,960 --> 02:05:50,280 Speaker 5: That he is. 2479 02:05:50,320 --> 02:05:53,480 Speaker 3: Do you have any guess as to who's on the 2480 02:05:53,520 --> 02:05:54,720 Speaker 3: other end of these phone calls? 2481 02:05:54,960 --> 02:05:57,720 Speaker 4: I don't know if we're ever gonna find out. This 2482 02:05:57,720 --> 02:05:58,240 Speaker 4: This to me. 2483 02:05:58,360 --> 02:06:00,440 Speaker 3: Who wasn't years ago that had like the he came 2484 02:06:00,480 --> 02:06:02,200 Speaker 3: to the ring with like the animal in a cage 2485 02:06:02,200 --> 02:06:03,720 Speaker 3: covered up and we never really found out what the 2486 02:06:03,720 --> 02:06:04,120 Speaker 3: animal was? 2487 02:06:04,200 --> 02:06:04,760 Speaker 4: Was Eric Groan? 2488 02:06:04,880 --> 02:06:06,760 Speaker 5: Yes, Yeah, it was just kind of like there it is. 2489 02:06:06,920 --> 02:06:09,360 Speaker 4: They finally, after months, they finally revealed it and it 2490 02:06:09,440 --> 02:06:12,480 Speaker 4: was a giant animatronic fake spider is what it turned 2491 02:06:12,520 --> 02:06:15,280 Speaker 4: out to be. And then two weeks later somebody killed 2492 02:06:15,320 --> 02:06:17,000 Speaker 4: it and that was it. That was it, That was it. 2493 02:06:17,000 --> 02:06:19,160 Speaker 4: There was that was that was back in the day 2494 02:06:19,160 --> 02:06:21,560 Speaker 4: of the Vince McMahon creative.
