12
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 4: Hate to be back. It's crazy. I'm trying to figure

13
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:37,959
Speaker 4: out the right spot for my chair. Did you put

14
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 4: me over here on purpose?

15
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 5: Like?

16
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 2: Way away? I feel like I'm isolated. I did not.

17
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 2: The head coach said, let's put guardsy on the Why

18
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,840
Speaker 2: does guardsy? Haven't you? Grim was behind this? I'm counting.

19
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 2: I believe it. I believe it.

20
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna angle this way. Let's be over here, coach.

21
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:52,879
Speaker 4: Good to see you, Good to see you guys. Just

22
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,319
Speaker 4: out of curiosity. What was your radio show like at

23
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 4: Colorado State? We did it in the evenings, so it

24
00:00:59,040 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 4: was evenings.

25
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 6: We did it a place called Lucky Joe's, which is

26
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,680
Speaker 6: kind of an iconic bar in old town for Collins.

27
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 6: Who's clapping, who's been there before? All right, Jones, you know,

28
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 6: the Lucky Joe's. And then it was in the evening.

29
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 6: There was a women's basketball portion to it a little

30
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 6: bit too, but yeah, it was it was good. We

31
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 6: got a great chance to connect with fans and had

32
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 6: a good turnout. And this is awesome. I mean having

33
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,040
Speaker 6: it right here next to the arena. I love doing

34
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 6: it like this over the lunch hour. I can roll

35
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 6: right out of here into practice and yeah, I'm looking

36
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 6: forward to it.

37
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 2: Outstanding. Well, this is great.

38
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,680
Speaker 3: We'll have most of the shows all year Tuesday noon

39
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,559
Speaker 3: to one because basketball schedule, you know, it's a little

40
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 3: bit different than football, where it's usually you know, Thursday,

41
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 3: Friday or Saturday, almost always Saturday. Here, you've got Monday games,

42
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 3: Tuesday games, travel days, so most of the shows will

43
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 3: be Tuesday. You'll want to check your local listings each week.

44
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,559
Speaker 3: There's a few Monday, a few Wednesday shows to accommodate

45
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 3: the travel.

46
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 2: Schedule and the game schedule.

47
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 3: You guys got back from California, Palm Springs, Palm Desert, California,

48
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 3: and it too two losses and injuries started to take

49
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 3: the toll. So let's start with can you give us

50
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 3: an update on how your guys are doing health wise?

51
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 6: You know, unfortunately we did not get some good news,

52
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 6: you know after the trip. You know, we kind of

53
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 6: suspected it, but you know, clarified it yesterday that you know,

54
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 6: Chauncey Willis is going to have to miss the rest

55
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 6: of the season unfortunately with a with a broken foot.

56
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 2: So that's a huge blow. It's a huge blow to him.

57
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 6: He's such a great, great young man and you know

58
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 6: he's got an incredible story and you know, huge blow

59
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 6: that way. So, uh, we confirm that Monday, which is

60
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 6: what we we thought had happened. You know, in the

61
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,119
Speaker 6: first game against Stanford. I think it was what three

62
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 6: minutes into the to the game. You know, Rob Fiela

63
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 6: is not making a little bit of progress, but but

64
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 6: still you know, Nie has bothered him. So we don't

65
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 6: know when, uh that will be back. We're still you know,

66
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 6: working on trying to get bj Ahmed back, you know.

67
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 6: So it's been a challenge. It's been a challenge. It's

68
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 6: a blow to our guys. It's been hard to practic this,

69
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 6: but hey, we're not the only team you know that

70
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 6: has injuries. I think it's important to acknowledge that sometimes

71
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 6: coaches get up here and you can be disingenuous and

72
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 6: not talk about. Of course, injuries play a factor, right

73
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 6: you do it, it changes the way you practice, the way

74
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 6: you prepare your guys who you're counting on you know

75
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 6: are not there. But at the same point in time, listen,

76
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 6: whining about it doesn't do anything. You know, we still

77
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 6: have to find a way with the guys that we

78
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 6: have to get the most out of them. No one's

79
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 6: going to feel sorry for you. We're not the only

80
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,919
Speaker 6: team that deals with injuries, and so we just got

81
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 6: to go and buckle up and we will.

82
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 2: This group will keep fighting.

83
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 4: That's kind of where I was going to go next.

84
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 4: How do you handle it with the group and the team,

85
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 4: because they obviously know they've got a couple of guys down,

86
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 4: and I'm sure some are looking forward to opportunities that

87
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 4: maybe they wouldn't have had otherwise. But even before the

88
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 4: first coaches radio show, you're dealing with some pretty serious

89
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 4: injuries this early on, So how tough is that to

90
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 4: get that message across?

91
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 6: I think you know guys who are in it. It's

92
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 6: a reality of being in sports, right, of being on teams.

93
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 6: And you know, I tell them, and I told them

94
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 6: the other night too, you know, in the locker room.

95
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 6: And if they get one thing out of our program,

96
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 6: and they may roll their eyes, but if they heard

97
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 6: it once, they heard it a million times. You know,

98
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 6: you don't learn, you don't grow, and you don't learn

99
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 6: a lot about people when things are going great. You

100
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 6: learn when things are going tough. You learn a lot

101
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 6: about your circle. You learn a lot about yourself. Who

102
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 6: do you want in the foxhole with you? How are

103
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 6: you going to respond? And I tell my coaches that too.

104
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 6: As I've been fortunate to be in this business a

105
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 6: long time, the times that I've grown the most as

106
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 6: a coach is when things have been hard and so

107
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 6: we get an opportunity to do that and guys need

108
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 6: to step up. Some guys are going to have to play.

109
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 6: You know, it's not too bad to say, hey, you

110
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 6: got to play all forty minutes, right, There are worse

111
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 6: things right, Guys want to play, and so we'll have

112
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 6: to retool that way. But I think it's just how

113
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 6: you frame it, and like I told the guys, we

114
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 6: have to focus on playing to the best of our ability.

115
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,479
Speaker 6: How can we become the best team that we can be,

116
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 6: And that's our journey right now. And these guys, we

117
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:52,839
Speaker 6: got high character guys. They'll stay in the fight and

118
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 6: they'll keep battling and we'll improve.

119
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 3: From a logistical standpoint or a pragmatic standpoint, is, how

120
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,599
Speaker 3: does the point guard situation now get uh normally resolved

121
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 3: with minutes?

122
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 2: I guess right, I.

123
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 6: Think you know, we've really got two guys, you know,

124
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 6: obviously Isaac Ossama in Langston Reynolds. I think you'll kind

125
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 6: of see those guys will start in the backcourt together

126
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 6: and that will be a little bit by committee, but

127
00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 6: that's that's that's what it is, right And so as

128
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 6: a coach, I guess it kind of simplifies things, right,

129
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 6: you know, this is what what it is, and this

130
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,040
Speaker 6: is what we've got, and those two guys are more

131
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 6: than capable, and they're gonna have to play more minutes.

132
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 6: They're gonna have to learn how to play really physical

133
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 6: and hard without fouling, play through fatigue, all those kinds

134
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 6: of things. And so that's what we'll do at the

135
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 6: point guard.

136
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 2: Position, and I gotta I gotta get the timing right.

137
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 3: Were you were you on campus ship for the Iron

138
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 3: five or were you still in high school?

139
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,799
Speaker 2: I was still in high school that way. But it's funny.

140
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 6: I actually had a recollection of myself back to that,

141
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 6: you know. And and uh, you know, in some ways

142
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 6: that's kind of what it what it is, you know.

143
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 6: And and guys are gonna have to log a lot

144
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 6: of minutes, and that's okay, And we just have to rethink,

145
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 6: you know, as coaches, how can we do this. Do

146
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 6: we have to play a little slower at times? How

147
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,359
Speaker 6: do we manage our timeouts? How can we get guys

148
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 6: in strategically before media timeouts to maybe get them a

149
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 6: little bit of a longer break, manage files? Guys are

150
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:11,799
Speaker 6: going to have to learn if they have two fouls

151
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 6: in the game. Sometimes I don't want to say giving

152
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 6: up a basket, but sometimes you can't put yourself in

153
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 6: harm's way, you know what I mean, to pick up

154
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 6: that third even if it means you maybe give up

155
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 6: something because we just can't afford to have you on

156
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:23,359
Speaker 6: the bench.

157
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, you also mentioned to us just before we came

158
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 3: on the Earth, it's you don't have you can't even

159
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:29,480
Speaker 3: have a five on.

160
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 2: Five practice with all scholarship.

161
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 3: Guys now right, you're using managers and maybe not even

162
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:34,720
Speaker 3: getting a full ten.

163
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,679
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think that's you know, that's coaches stuff fans,

164
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 6: But that's that's been really hard for me. Practice is

165
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 6: my favorite thing about coaching. I love practice. We put

166
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 6: a lot of time into it. That's really where you improve.

167
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:47,559
Speaker 6: And that's been a challenge, you know, because we need

168
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 6: to practice our execution at both ends. But it's been

169
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 6: really hard. We don't have enough numbers to do it.

170
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,919
Speaker 6: And then two, when you have to play guys so

171
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 6: many minutes, you're just you know, we can't get anyone

172
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 6: else hurt. You know, how hard do we practice you

173
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,839
Speaker 6: know today and for having these seven guys, the amount

174
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 6: of time what we put you know, almost three hours

175
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 6: this morning into what we're going to do here today

176
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 6: for about an hour and fifteen minutes after this. But

177
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 6: you just got to try to be you know, creative

178
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 6: and maximize it any way you can.

179
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, what do you come up with? That was kind

180
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 4: of going to be my question. If you can't really

181
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 4: do what you want to do practice wise, how do

182
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 4: you get the closest to it.

183
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 6: I think, you know, you can double down at some

184
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 6: of the skill in teaching stuff, you know, small groups,

185
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 6: the the two on two, the three on three, you know,

186
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 6: really really using your coaches and stuff as IDs you know,

187
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 6: in offense and defense. So you're just kind of doing

188
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 6: a lot more breakdown, you know that that way, maybe

189
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 6: some of the five on five the coach don't have

190
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 6: enough guys to go live, but maybe we can do

191
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 6: more of like pseudo walkthroughs, you know, at speed almost

192
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 6: like they do in football. And that's really it, you know,

193
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 6: four and four, three on three, just really try to

194
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 6: get creative that way and put them in similar situations

195
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 6: and actions that they're going to see in the game.

196
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:58,119
Speaker 6: There's nothing that replaces the five on five. But again,

197
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 6: you got to control the controllables. That's all he can do.

198
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 6: And and somehow there's going to be a way that

199
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 6: you know, I always look back and say, man, I

200
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 6: became a better coach through this because I had to

201
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 6: get creative.

202
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 2: You know, guys will become better players having.

203
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 6: To you know, maybe play a bigger role, play through fatigue,

204
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 6: do some things that are maybe out of their comfort zone.

205
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 2: And that's what we build on.

206
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 4: If you if one of your coaches needed to give

207
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 4: you a few trips up the floor in practice, who's

208
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 4: most likely on your staff to be able to do

209
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 4: that well, at least likely Power rankings for the fitness

210
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 4: of your coaching status.

211
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:26,239
Speaker 2: So ability.

212
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, So first of all, Joe Desmonds sitting over there

213
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 6: is as good as anyone we've got on.

214
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 2: Our He could give you some trips.

215
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, but he's not technically you know, the coach so

216
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 6: to be out there. But he is a oh man,

217
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 6: he's a I mean three and d. He is a

218
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,079
Speaker 6: college version of like a Jaden McDaniels. I love it,

219
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 6: kind of deal, a better shooter, you know, not as long,

220
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 6: not as good of a defender, but he's he's good.

221
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 6: Out of our coaches right now, it's tough. They're all

222
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 6: bad right now. They're too old. I can't do it.

223
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 6: I mean, armand tried to get you know the other day,

224
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 6: get out there.

225
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 2: It's not good really anymore.

226
00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 6: And I've seen too many coaches and they get older,

227
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 6: they get out there and you know, it's an achilles

228
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:04,080
Speaker 6: for sure.

229
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 2: And that's the last thing.

230
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:05,480
Speaker 3: We need.

231
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:06,959
Speaker 2: One of those little tricycle things for.

232
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,439
Speaker 6: Your But no, we got enough guys on the eye. R.

233
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 6: I don't need an assistant on the eye.

234
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 4: Well, there was one year where I think a manager

235
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 4: popped an a cl Right, what are we doing here?

236
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 4: We had guys that were hurt, and a manager's got

237
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 4: to have certain minutes.

238
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 6: I want to tell you what though, it was bad enough,

239
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,440
Speaker 6: like we we were down whatever guys, and there's like,

240
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 6: I don't know, eight minutes left in the Santa Clara

241
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,959
Speaker 6: game the other night, and I look down, I look

242
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,439
Speaker 6: back and there's Jalen Crocker.

243
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 2: Johnson, you know, limping up the court and Aaron he.

244
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 6: Goes to He goes, coach, you can't make this up, man,

245
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 6: you know, And I was like, oh my god, did something.

246
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 2: You know he's dealt with an ankle.

247
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:42,320
Speaker 6: You thank god it was just you know, resprained it

248
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 6: again and whatever. But yeah, we just we can't have

249
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 6: a coach go down either.

250
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 3: You can't have that. That said a little bit shorthanded. Obviously,

251
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 3: the first part of the Santa Clair game didn't go

252
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 3: the way you wanted.

253
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 2: They hit everything.

254
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 3: You guys can understand, Yeah, you guys could you guys

255
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 3: couldn't need anything. They hit everything, and that that's spells,

256
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 3: you know, not the way you wanted to go, but

257
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 3: the closing factor when you only had seven guys, you know,

258
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 3: it was a good a good effort in terms of,

259
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,080
Speaker 3: you know, closing the gap, finishing strong, hitting some shots.

260
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 6: I don't know, yeah, I think again, listen, let me

261
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 6: be clear, Like if people you get to know me,

262
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 6: I'm the most competitive guy you've been around. I hate losing.

263
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 6: I hate losing. I have the that's what we're here

264
00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,199
Speaker 6: to do. But I think sometimes when you're in those situations,

265
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 6: you know, we knew Santa Clair was going to press

266
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 6: pressure us down to point guard down bodies back to back.

267
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 2: It really just they just got jumped us, you know.

268
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,199
Speaker 6: And so what halftime, You're like, Okay, we just got

269
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 6: to focus on playing a good twenty minutes. You know,

270
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 6: how do we reframe this right now? How do we

271
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 6: find a way to go out there and try to

272
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 6: win this half and let's get better? I think so

273
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 6: we can have something to build on. And I thought

274
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 6: they did that. I thought the guys, you know, did

275
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 6: what we needed to do in the second half. They

276
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 6: showed me something. They never quit. I was really proud

277
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 6: of a guy like Kais Shinholster. You know, freshman gets

278
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,719
Speaker 6: an opportunity. He's flying around on the offense glass, he's

279
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 6: diving on the floor. Really brought us some energy. Guys

280
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 6: like cade Tyson. Typically in a game like that, we

281
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 6: might take him out. He couldn't come out, you know,

282
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 6: because there's no we don't do, having else to play.

283
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 6: And he's almost you know, in the second half, you know,

284
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 6: throwing up in the time because he's given you everything

285
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 6: he has, you know, And so there's there's some toughness

286
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,439
Speaker 6: in that group, and that's something to build on. And

287
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,079
Speaker 6: like I told him, I said, you know, you look

288
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 6: around the room right now, and you learn a lot

289
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 6: about your teammates and yourself.

290
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 2: Who's going to stay in the fight when things are tough?

291
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,840
Speaker 6: And and I think that's a big thing that you know,

292
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,840
Speaker 6: you're about building the culture and everything that we want

293
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 6: to do that can be bigger than winning and losing.

294
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 4: Did it confirm to you like these last couple of weeks.

295
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 4: Obviously you kind of microwave this team right in twenty

296
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 4: twenty five. You get here, you get the job, you

297
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 4: get get a lot of new faces. You probably knew

298
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 4: something about their character beforehand, but it's probably hard to

299
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 4: really truly know that it confirmed to you kind of

300
00:11:49,679 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 4: the guys that you thought you brought in.

301
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think again, Yes, I mean I think you

302
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 6: learn a lot about people and you know, and not

303
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 6: good and bad, but you also learn, Okay, man, there's

304
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 6: a way we got to try to help this young

305
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 6: man grow, right, here's something that we can really help

306
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 6: him improve on.

307
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 2: But yes, you do.

308
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,319
Speaker 6: You don't no matter how many guys you have, whatever

309
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 6: they've done before.

310
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 2: Every team's different.

311
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 6: You don't really learn about your team until you go

312
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 6: through it. And every team's going to go through about

313
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,079
Speaker 6: what your response is going to be. And so I

314
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 6: thought they did show that in the in the second half.

315
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 6: And now at least there's clarity, right, Like we know

316
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 6: it really stinks for Chance, but he's out right now,

317
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 6: you know, And so we know these guys are out.

318
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 6: These are the seven guys that we have right now,

319
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 6: and maybe in a way that just gives them clarity

320
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 6: of Okay, this is it.

321
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,000
Speaker 2: We got to go out there and find a way

322
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:35,959
Speaker 2: to make the most of this.

323
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,679
Speaker 3: A couple more just with the situation is it as

324
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 3: it is injury wise, It's not like the NBA where

325
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 3: you just call up a couple of dudes from G

326
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 3: League or find a guy you know on the waiver

327
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 3: wire that's not there. But are there things now with

328
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 3: the transfer portal that maybe you could add a guy

329
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 3: in the middle of the season or a semester or

330
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 3: something like that, or no, Well.

331
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 6: It's funny, I wish. I mean, there's a couple of

332
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 6: guys finches and't playing right. If we can take those guys,

333
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 6: you know, it's it's challenging at the semester. There could be,

334
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 6: you know, a possibility, you know, there's was there an

335
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 6: international players or somebody else you know, who could come

336
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,560
Speaker 6: at this semester. I think you need to be cautious though,

337
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 6: because again, sometimes the short term band aid might feel

338
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 6: good for a little bit, but that's not what we're

339
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 6: aiming to do, right. We're aiming to be a great

340
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 6: prom and so anyone that we would want to add

341
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 6: would be somebody that that we would envision could be

342
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 6: here for the long term, not just for you know,

343
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,199
Speaker 6: the last few months of the season, but somebody who

344
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,559
Speaker 6: we think long term we could really you know, build with.

345
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 6: And so I think that's what all options have to

346
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 6: be on the table.

347
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 2: You're always looking to add guys.

348
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 6: We would have flexibility to do that, but it's it's

349
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 6: really got to make sense.

350
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 3: And then lastly, for at least for me on that

351
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,960
Speaker 3: part of it. And again you just got the news yesterday.

352
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 3: But with Chauncey, I know he had a junior college

353
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 3: year that I don't know what that means. I think

354
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,199
Speaker 3: there's still rulings on that has he played too much

355
00:13:58,240 --> 00:13:58,839
Speaker 3: at eight games?

356
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:00,319
Speaker 2: Or is this a chance he could get a meal?

357
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 6: He should have no problem getting a medical and so

358
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 6: you know, like I told him, and obviously he's a

359
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 6: he's a young man I would really want to have

360
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 6: back in the program.

361
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:09,959
Speaker 2: He's about all the right things.

362
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 6: He is tough as nails, he's so coachable, and you know,

363
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 6: you look at his journey and like I, he's been

364
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 6: at all, you know, these different places. And I told him,

365
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 6: as much as this stinks for you, you know he's

366
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 6: going to look back on this and he'll be cleared

367
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 6: in the spring. At some point, you get to be

368
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 6: where your feet are. You know, you've learned a lot

369
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 6: already from playing. Being here in the summer, you get

370
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 6: an opportunity to watch and learn and kind of see

371
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 6: the game from a different side right away. In the spring,

372
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 6: he has a full spring, full summer. And I said,

373
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 6: you'll have a much better season next year than you

374
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 6: would have had this year, you know, just with your

375
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 6: experience and being in the same place, and you'll look

376
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 6: back on this next year at this time and you'll realize, Man,

377
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 6: in some way, that was meant to be for me.

378
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 2: And as hard as it was at the time, I

379
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 2: grew through that. Let's take a break, we'll come back.

380
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 2: We'll recap more.

Speaker 2: later on.

522
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 3: Let's talk about about your your team here a little bit,

523
00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 3: starting with Caid Tyson, who is your leadings. He's kind

524
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,480
Speaker 3: of developed into the go to player that I'm sure

525
00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,119
Speaker 3: when you talked him into becoming a Golden Gopher. You

526
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,240
Speaker 3: were hoping to see, I mean, twenty plus points each night.

527
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 3: He mentioned how hard he was working late in that

528
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 3: game against Santa Clara. Just talk us through, maybe take

529
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,680
Speaker 3: us all the way back to the recruitment process and

530
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 3: what you liked about him and how it all worked

531
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 3: out for him to end up here in the Twin Cities.

532
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:24,280
Speaker 2: You know, we were.

533
00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,360
Speaker 6: Familiar with him when he played at Belmont. Obviously, I've

534
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 6: told the story two years ago. You know, he was

535
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:33,199
Speaker 6: one of the top transfers available. He's a North Carolina kid, right,

536
00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 6: so I see the lure of going back home and

537
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 6: playing for Carolina. It's a team he grew up cheering for.

538
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 6: Just didn't work out for him. But I think, you know,

539
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,639
Speaker 6: fit matters. We really thought he'd be great in our system,

540
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 6: kind of his versatility, kind of the things that he

541
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 6: could do. We knew he was a high character guy.

542
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 6: He was tough, he would work, and it's all played

543
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 6: out that way. I mean, he's been everything and more

544
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 6: to be honest to what we thought. He's a team guy,

545
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 6: all about the right things, really tough. He's the first

546
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 6: guy in the gym in fact, he's probably to the point,

547
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 6: like most of the great ones I've ever had, you

548
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 6: kind of have to try to Hey man, you know

549
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 6: what I mean, Like I get the you know, seven

550
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 6: forty five or whatever in the morning, getting up your

551
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 6: shots every day and then coming back and some of

552
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:18,960
Speaker 6: that's what makes you what But I think, you know,

553
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 6: having a plan of how do I you know, maximize

554
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 6: But again, having guys that you have to to scale

555
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 6: back is is what you want because it means so

556
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 6: so much to them. And so it's been really fun

557
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:32,879
Speaker 6: to watch him and I think you know, fans are

558
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 6: realizing too. He's obviously an exceptional shooter, but he does

559
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 6: a great job, you know, cutting, does a great job,

560
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:41,959
Speaker 6: you know, getting to the free throw line. He has

561
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 6: a really quick first step, you know, playing off his

562
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,240
Speaker 6: shot fake. I think this is really great for his

563
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 6: development too. He's drawing more attention now on the scouting

564
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 6: report than he's ever had in his career, so he's

565
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 6: going to have to continue to to learn how to

566
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:53,960
Speaker 6: play through that.

567
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 2: You know, they're not helping off him.

568
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 6: So how do you become a better screener, you know,

569
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,399
Speaker 6: how do you find ways to give your off up

570
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,960
Speaker 6: on cuts? Sometimes, you know, for the betterment of the team.

571
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,640
Speaker 6: And so think all those things playing through maybe more

572
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 6: help in a post up or a drive situation than

573
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 6: he's had to in his career. So I think, you know,

574
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 6: as we keep attacking it with him, how do we

575
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 6: continue to help him grow as a as a player.

576
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 2: But yeah, he's been a fun one to be around.

577
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:17,400
Speaker 2: Well it's fun.

578
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,120
Speaker 4: I go back to the North Dakota State game, being

579
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 4: at that game, and you remember the first handful of

580
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 4: minutes nobody was scoring, and then all of a sudden,

581
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 4: it felt like Kate hit like ten shots in a row,

582
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 4: and go, oh, that's how they're going to do it.

583
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 2: Okay, got it.

584
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 4: But guys, we're finding him as well, right, And that

585
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 4: that I thought was the cool thing is that the

586
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 4: guys understood, like, this guy's on a heater, let's let's

587
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 4: find him. And that's sometimes it was a great stretch

588
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 4: there that really just took that game and put it

589
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:42,159
Speaker 4: totally in control.

590
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, and you know, he hasn't he hasn't looked back,

591
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,920
Speaker 6: you know, as far as that confidence of you know,

592
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,040
Speaker 6: being that guy, you know, you miss three shots, you

593
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 6: got to take the fourth one like you made the

594
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 6: first three. You know, that's what's how you have to play,

595
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,520
Speaker 6: and I do. I think we have an unselfish group,

596
00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 6: you know, guys looking for each other.

597
00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 2: I think it's become harder.

598
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:02,600
Speaker 6: You know, again, as you get scouted, it becomes harder

599
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 6: to get you know, easy shots. It's just going to

600
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:06,400
Speaker 6: get harder and hard as we get into conference play.

601
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 6: You just have to be more committed than ever right

602
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 6: of trying to get great shots as a team. But yeah,

603
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,440
Speaker 6: he's been He's been really fun to coach, and I

604
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 6: think he's going to continue to get better as the

605
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 6: season goes on. And you know, how is he going

606
00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 6: to respond to be in the top of the scouting

607
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,680
Speaker 6: report every night? How is he going to have to

608
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 6: do that playing you know, basically never coming out of

609
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 6: the game, you know, sometimes guarding bigger guys, maybe have

610
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 6: to guard bigger, more bigger guys now just based on

611
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 6: you know, numbers of what we have. But how is

612
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 6: he going to respond to that? He really showed me

613
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 6: he's going to give you everything he has. But that's

614
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,120
Speaker 6: going to be a challenge for him. And that's one

615
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 6: that like I've tried to tell him, is like this

616
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 6: will help you crow as a player and become better

617
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,160
Speaker 6: and better for now obviously, and then I think he's

618
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:45,440
Speaker 6: got a career at the next level.

619
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,399
Speaker 3: Some other guys that have come in, I mean, obviously

620
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:53,439
Speaker 3: most of your team is is our transfers. Bobby Durkin

621
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 3: was a guy you brought in from Davidson Too to

622
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 3: be a shooter. And he was hitting some shots in California.

623
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 3: And when he's hitting shots, that's that's that that is

624
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 3: his purpose.

625
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 6: Right, Yeah, I mean he's a he uh, he's he's

626
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 6: got a toughness about him. He's a shot maker. You know,

627
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,120
Speaker 6: he went through that stretch there a couple of weeks

628
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,760
Speaker 6: or man, he could not make one. I felt bad

629
00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 6: for him, but like I just said, listen, ye I

630
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:20,960
Speaker 6: don't care how many you miss. You got to keep shooting.

631
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 2: They're gonna come. He puts in the work and he

632
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:24,959
Speaker 2: just needed to see one go down. And so it's

633
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 2: been fun.

634
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 6: You know, last few games, he's really you know, playing

635
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 6: with a lot more confidence. And yeah, he's just got

636
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 6: to continue to grow. I I think it's been fun

637
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:36,399
Speaker 6: for him to he's taking a step on the defensive end.

638
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,400
Speaker 6: You know, he's got to learn to use his length

639
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:41,120
Speaker 6: more he's not the quickest guy in the world. He's

640
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 6: gonna have to guard smaller, quicker guys he's got and

641
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,800
Speaker 6: I think he's been doing better that way. But one

642
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,119
Speaker 6: thing about Bobby Dirkin, I mean, he's gonna do everything

643
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 6: you ask him to do. You know, if you ask him, Hey,

644
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 6: you know, Dirk, you're gonna have to this is what

645
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:53,920
Speaker 6: you what's got to take place, He's gonna do it

646
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 6: almost to a fault. Sometimes, you know, you almost wish

647
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 6: sometimes you'd have a little bit more, you know, screw off, coach,

648
00:26:58,640 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 6: You know.

649
00:26:58,800 --> 00:26:59,920
Speaker 2: What I mean, I'm gonna go do it.

650
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 6: You got to have a little bit of that. Sometimes

651
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 6: you need coachable guys. But there's sometimes you know, you

652
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 6: can't be overthinker. You got to go and play the game. Yeah,

653
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,920
Speaker 6: speaking of that, you mentioned his where he went through

654
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 6: that stretch. The team went through a little bit of

655
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 6: a stretch where it was hard to buy a three.

656
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 6: You guys, when you recruited these guys, you look at

657
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,680
Speaker 6: the career percentages, they were all pretty good shooters.

658
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,800
Speaker 3: So as a coach, how do how do you live

659
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 3: with that? It isn't like you went and recruited a

660
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 3: bunch of guys that were shooting eighteen percent at their

661
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,959
Speaker 3: previous stops. So you're missing a bunch of shots as

662
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 3: a team for two or three straight games.

663
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,160
Speaker 6: I think, you know, you go through that. Sometimes those

664
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,159
Speaker 6: are just the ebbs and flows of basketball. I think

665
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 6: the first thing you always look at his shot selection. Okay,

666
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 6: are you taking good shots? And you know, there are

667
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:43,640
Speaker 6: times when it's like, hey, maybe we could have taken

668
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 6: a better shot than that. You know that we're not

669
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:48,480
Speaker 6: unique to this, but I think I don't know. A

670
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,879
Speaker 6: few games ago, we had a paint touch, you're shooting

671
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,919
Speaker 6: sixty percent. Non paint touch, you're shooting twenty eight percent. Okay, well,

672
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:55,920
Speaker 6: are we taking too many shots where the ball doesn't

673
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 6: touch the paint. But then sometimes if you're taking great

674
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 6: shots and they're not going in, you just got to

675
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 6: keep shooting, you know. And when teams are paint collapsing

676
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 6: and and they're and they're and they're you're kicking it

677
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 6: out and you're wide open, you've got to be winning

678
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 6: to shoot the ball. And sometimes you go through a

679
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,399
Speaker 6: little bit of a slump, you can hesitate, you know

680
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 6: what I mean, and you shoot sometimes excuse me, should

681
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:15,440
Speaker 6: I shoot that shot? I guess I'm open, I'm gonna

682
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 6: shoot it, or you start driving it, you know when

683
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:18,920
Speaker 6: you're open, and then you end up getting a worse

684
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 6: shot later in the in the in the shot clocks.

685
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:24,119
Speaker 6: So it's a combination of all those things. And and uh,

686
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 6: but usually guys go back to the mean, right, whatever

687
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 6: that is, and if they prove that they can make shots,

688
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 6: they're they're gonna make shots. And so hopefully we've hit

689
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 6: a little bit of me, We've shot a little bit

690
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 6: better here when you do the same thing from the

691
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 6: free throw line. And because you know, the margin for

692
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,000
Speaker 6: aer shrinks now, right, so you've got to make up

693
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 6: margins any place you can.

694
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 4: Have you picked up speaking of free throws, the baggage

695
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 4: that Minnesota fans have about free throw shot.

696
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 2: Have you picked that?

697
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:48,440
Speaker 1: Yeah?

698
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 2: People, it's like, look, got a Nico.

699
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 4: The guy there is like eighty percent for fifteen years,

700
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 4: the last fifteen years, and now it's happening.

701
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 2: What's going on?

702
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,600
Speaker 6: Post traumatic stressing? Them are for this free throws or whatever?

703
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 6: I get it, you know, and you know, and no

704
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 6: I do, but you just got to kick that thing

705
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 6: right in the in the rear. You can't, you know,

706
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 6: the worst thing I could do is pay attention to that,

707
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 6: to be honest. You know, listen, there's guys that have

708
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 6: to continue to work at free throw shooting. There's guys

709
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 6: who are really good free throw shooters. But it's a balance.

710
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 6: Everybody's different, every team's different. Guys do practice free throws.

711
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 6: Some guys maybe need to have a better routine. We

712
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,400
Speaker 6: do pressure free throws in practice. But it's been weird

713
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 6: this year. There's been some games where we've shot it

714
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 6: great from the free throw line. It almost seems like

715
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 6: it's one or the other, and it's been we've been great,

716
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 6: or we've just kind of gone off the deep end

717
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 6: in a couple of these games, and a few of

718
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,720
Speaker 6: them really hurt us, obviously. You know, the Stanford game

719
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 6: I thought was right there. You know, the San Francisco

720
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 6: game was right there. I thought for the taken and clearly,

721
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 6: you know, we miss too many front ends of one

722
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 6: on ones.

723
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 2: Those things kill you.

724
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 6: You know, you run a good possession, you get fouled

725
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 6: in a close game, miss the front end and they

726
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 6: go down and score. Those are huge swing plays and

727
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 6: players know that. So you've got to cash in on

728
00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 6: those opportunities.

729
00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 4: It is funny because fans wonder, well, are they practicing

730
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 4: free throws?

731
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, every pressure free throws.

732
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 4: At the end of practice, everybody's running, if or not

733
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 4: got speakers, like they've they've considered it.

734
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,040
Speaker 2: The coaches is considered free throws.

735
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 6: We do, and I think sometimes you know, I talked

736
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 6: to a great coach who's a mentor of mine too,

737
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 6: and he's like, you know, an ECO, go through that

738
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 6: and warn team whatever, it's struggle a little bit from

739
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 6: the free throwing.

740
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:22,760
Speaker 2: You know what I tell my guys about free throws.

741
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 2: He's like, nothing, you know what I mean, Like, listen,

742
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 2: the players are self aware. Hey, A'll no, you know

743
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 2: what I mean.

744
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 6: Like like, and sometimes you make a bigger deal out

745
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 6: of it. It just makes you even tighter total ow.

746
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 6: And so you just got to get your routine and

747
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 6: got to do your deal and and and it is

748
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:38,520
Speaker 6: what it is. And again certain guys maybe you have

749
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 6: certain things they have to work on more. But but

750
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 6: but you know that that's where we're at, and hopefully

751
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 6: it's something that will continue to get better at and

752
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:46,600
Speaker 6: we trend more towards the games that we've shot it.

753
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 3: Well, you mentioned shot selections, So I'm curious philosophically, what

754
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 3: your view is of a wide open three by people

755
00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 3: that you think can shoot him? Do you want that

756
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 3: to even if it's five seconds into the possession If

757
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 3: a guy is all alone and it's a guy that

758
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 3: can shoot threes, are you are you saying fire that

759
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 3: thing or do you want to move the ball some more?

760
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 6: If Caid Tyson's wide open one second into the shot

761
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,479
Speaker 6: clock and he doesn't shoot it, that's a problem for us,

762
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 6: you know what I mean? No, I mean a wide

763
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 6: open three for anyone who can shoot it, you know,

764
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 6: even at a mid thirties percent, you know, should take

765
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 6: that shot every time. I mean, I you know again

766
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,240
Speaker 6: analytics one oh one. Right, if a guy, if you're

767
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 6: a forty say you're a forty percent three point shooter,

768
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,719
Speaker 6: and you shoot it from behind the line, okay, that's

769
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 6: one point two points at possession right, shot inside just

770
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 6: three feet inside along too with the same shooters point

771
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:37,719
Speaker 6: eight points of possession right.

772
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 2: You know, So threes open threes are are huge, right,

773
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:41,960
Speaker 2: And that's.

774
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 6: Why you know, the NBA has probably almost gone too

775
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 6: far in my opinion a little bit. You know, the

776
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 6: animal we got to get up this many threes. I

777
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 6: just think to get I got to get up good shots. Still,

778
00:31:49,280 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 6: the highest valued shot is still we call him rack

779
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 6: zone two shots at the rim, you know, getting filed

780
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 6: doing that.

781
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:58,640
Speaker 3: But open threes are like gold. Yeah, and if guys

782
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 3: that have good percentage can can are open. And I

783
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 3: think you're getting in your offense a lot of open threes,

784
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 3: which is nice.

785
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:06,240
Speaker 2: See we do.

786
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 6: I mean there's sometimes I think guys are maybe a

787
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 6: little bit you know, ill advised, or maybe take them

788
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 6: without a paint touch a little bit too early.

789
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 2: And again it's a it's a gray area thing.

790
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 11: You know.

791
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 6: You can't be over there overthinking every possession, and you

792
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:23,800
Speaker 6: gotta be talking about good shots, great shots. And I

793
00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 6: always tell you guys, my job is to not teach

794
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 6: them what to do. It's teach them how to think,

795
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,280
Speaker 6: you know. And I try to don't say, don't you know,

796
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,280
Speaker 6: don't take that shot, Hey, maybe what could have been

797
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 6: a better one, you know, and try to teach him

798
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 6: how to how to think that way. But yeah, I

799
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 6: think we've been been getting good shots. And you know, yeah,

800
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 6: you got to it's a pretty simple game. You know,

801
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 6: you got to make shots. This team we're going to

802
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 6: play tomorrow night. Here is as good of a three

803
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:44,480
Speaker 6: point shooting team as I've seen.

00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,520

808
00:32:57,600 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 4: could give all just too, but it's not going to

809
00:32:59,360 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 4: be that good.

810

Speaker 3: I mean, I'm listening to you being introduced as a

823
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 3: new head coach. Back in whenever it was March or

824
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 3: April over at the facility, and my only thinking was

825
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:43,960
Speaker 3: I can't wait till Guardie gets to get to the

826
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:44,960
Speaker 3: long contested too.

827
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,120
Speaker 2: First, the same thing. Yeah, I only been working on

828
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 2: these questions GUARD.

829
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 4: Since about then. I think that I was about eleven

830
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 4: thirty this morning. Yeah, what time did we break? We

831
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,719
Speaker 4: broke about twelve thirty four, So I got a couple. Well,

832
00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 4: I don't know if this has been previously reported, but

833
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:01,880
Speaker 4: you're actually from Minnesota. You grew up in Minnesota, and

834
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 4: you went to the University of Minnesota. So I just

835
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 4: want to get that cleared up in case anybody had

836
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 4: any confusion about that.

837
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 2: But I'm curious.

838
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 4: I remember when I was here twenty ish years ago,

839
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 4: maybe thirty, how much the campus has changed? How much

840
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:18,359
Speaker 4: has it changed from when you were here ninety two

841
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 4: to ninety six right around there, right, So it has

842
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 4: to be unrecognizable in some ways.

843
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 2: It does. It's funny you say that.

844
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:25,920
Speaker 4: So I'm in this.

845
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,359
Speaker 2: This is my first time in this BW three.

846
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,800
Speaker 6: This used to be Station nineteen, sure did, yeah, okay,

847
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 6: Station nineteen. That was the hangout for better or worse,

848
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,120
Speaker 6: you know what I mean? This was the hangout. And

849
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:40,400
Speaker 6: so I'm I'm looking everybody nodding. Everyone is bad that,

850
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:42,920
Speaker 6: you know. I'm looking around this place and there used

851
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,359
Speaker 6: to be like a little I think upstairs thing here

852
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,239
Speaker 6: and whatever. So this in and of itself where we're

853
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 6: saying it has changed dramatically from what I've hear. The

854
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 6: barn hasn't changed at all. Right, it's the same as

855
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 6: I remember it, for better or worse. Yeah, I'll clumb

856
00:34:56,280 --> 00:35:00,360
Speaker 6: Haskin's desk. The thing there is still a landline phone,

857
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:04,279
Speaker 6: okay in the desk on there. We actually dialed the

858
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,960
Speaker 6: number when it first got there. It still rings, you

859
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 6: know what I mean, that's number, yes, I think so, yeah,

860
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 6: it's the bat phone, you know, or whatever if we

861
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:14,880
Speaker 6: if we need it. So that hasn't changed. On campus

862
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 6: has I mean the biggest thing that's changed. I mean

863
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:18,280
Speaker 6: that the athletes village.

864
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 14: It is.

865
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,759
Speaker 6: It's tremendous. I mean that the facility we get to

866
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:25,320
Speaker 6: be in every day is just spectacular. For our guys,

867
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 6: for our coaches. Boy, they did a phenomenal job. You know,

868
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,799
Speaker 6: give Mark and his team credit for you know, they

869
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:33,800
Speaker 6: really had the vision of doing that and whoever that

870
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 6: started and raising the money, they really did it first class.

871
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:38,960
Speaker 2: So that part has changed dramatically.

872
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,320
Speaker 6: Where our players live, you know, across the street, and

873
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,000
Speaker 6: now they've even got new housing that continues to go

874
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,359
Speaker 6: up that our guys are are are living in. It's

875
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:50,919
Speaker 6: just everything is first class that way, you know, walking

876
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 6: on the mall of campus and around there, a lot

877
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,920
Speaker 6: of that is is similar to what it was. But

878
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 6: you know, you you do remember my wife comment in

879
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 6: this too, and she ben here before. We are in

880
00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:05,239
Speaker 6: a city. But really the campus is really nice. You know,

881
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,759
Speaker 6: when you get on campus, you really feel like in

882
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 6: this metropolitanary, like you really are on a college campus.

883
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:13,239
Speaker 6: So some things have really changed, but some things are

884
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 6: the same, and I think all the changes that I've

885
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:16,719
Speaker 6: seen are further better.

886
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:20,120
Speaker 4: You mentioned the living situation. What was your living situation

887
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,600
Speaker 4: like in college? Where did the team live? And I

888
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 4: know you roomed with a couple of the guys on

889
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,799
Speaker 4: her so what was it like? Probably not as nice

890
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:28,839
Speaker 4: as the as the apartments that I see across from

891
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:29,880
Speaker 4: Athletes Village.

892
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,160
Speaker 2: Oh man. They were kind of all over the place.

893
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,640
Speaker 6: Six sixteen tenth Avenue Southeast, right down there down the

894
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 6: street from Evan Scholars was the apartment. Chad Colander was

895
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:44,479
Speaker 6: my roommate for for several years Watana Zone.

896
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,439
Speaker 2: We had a lot of fun there.

897
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 6: All those guys, you know, remember how many times you

898
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,600
Speaker 6: know Trevor and Heidi Winter. Now we're over at our

899
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 6: place and it's hard to see him playing for the

900
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 6: Badgers right now.

901
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,319
Speaker 4: We don't talk about We don't talk about that. Yeah,

902
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 4: you can still be friends with them if you want.

903
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,280
Speaker 4: We used to text a lot. Yeah, it's not happening anymore.

904
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:07,800
Speaker 2: That's fine if that's what he wants to do.

905
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:11,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's have their own thoughts and feelings. That's fine.

906
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:12,399
Speaker 4: I'm not going to do it that way.

907
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:12,880
Speaker 3: But whatever.

908
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 6: They kind of lived all over the place though it

909
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:16,800
Speaker 6: was kind of spread out. It was different, but not

910
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 6: nearly what these guys have now. I mean, the furnished apartments,

911
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 6: everything's there. It's literally across the street. I mean, the

912
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 6: amenities that these guys have is just unbelievable, really really

913
00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:26,800
Speaker 6: first class.

914
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,879
Speaker 4: Is there a place that you wish was still here

915
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,960
Speaker 4: on campus, like a restaurant or a store or something

916
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,440
Speaker 4: that from the nineties that maybe we wouldn't know about

917
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 4: or remember.

918
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 2: The subs at the Big Ten. Oh yeah, that's a

919
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,520
Speaker 2: great answer, do you know, I mean.

920
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,160
Speaker 6: I for whatever reason, I you know, at that place,

921
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 6: Sallies is still here. It's a new Sallies yeah, it's okay.

922
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:48,400
Speaker 2: I remember that.

923
00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:50,360
Speaker 6: I haven't been back to Stubborn Herbs yet. But the

924
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:53,000
Speaker 6: Big ten, So that was a that was a classic.

925
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 6: You're walking back from class and you wanted to get

926
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 6: one of those. You just went with the whole big

927
00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:58,239
Speaker 6: so good. Wasn't it good?

928
00:37:58,560 --> 00:37:58,719
Speaker 12: You know?

929
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,040
Speaker 6: And so I don't that something that you know, I

930
00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 6: haven't had it every once in a while. It'd be

931
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:03,120
Speaker 6: kind of cool to.

932
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,800
Speaker 4: Go over what would your order be? Because did you

933
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,360
Speaker 4: rotate sandwiches or were you one sandwich? So this is

934
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,120
Speaker 4: what the long contested too is. I mean, this is

935
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 4: the hard you got to learn more about Nico. You're

936
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:15,800
Speaker 4: putting me on the spot. But it was the turkey

937
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:17,800
Speaker 4: and you had like kind of the mayo and the

938
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:20,239
Speaker 4: vinegar right and the thing. And I can't remember that

939
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,200
Speaker 4: the whole was it a foot or was it even

940
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:24,000
Speaker 4: better than a foot?

941
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:24,359
Speaker 18: The whole?

942
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:26,799
Speaker 4: I'm not sure. I don't remember because we had one

943
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,319
Speaker 4: in Hopkins for a really really somebody is still trying

944
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,720
Speaker 4: to make them well. So this is way in the weeds.

945
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:33,719
Speaker 4: And thanks again to Buffalo Wild Wings for hostings for

946
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,360
Speaker 4: the show every week. But Hopkins used to have a

947
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:38,640
Speaker 4: Big ten and then the owners split up. It's a

948
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,240
Speaker 4: new place now. But because of the set the subs,

949
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:43,719
Speaker 4: everybody loves them. They brought them back during COVID for

950
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 4: a brief time, and now they're trying to bring them

951
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:49,359
Speaker 4: back again. So it's still the vision of the sub

952
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,080
Speaker 4: is still living on in downtown Hopkins, but it's not

953
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:53,440
Speaker 4: something totally consistent.

954
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:54,960
Speaker 2: I'd be careful though. I want to say that.

955
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 6: You know that the wings at BW three are pretty

956
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:59,279
Speaker 6: good here too, right, you know, and we're every time like, yeah,

957
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:01,399
Speaker 6: we're gonna have them every every Tuesday. So yeah, there's

958
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 6: no Big ten down here anymore. No Big ten, No

959
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,279
Speaker 6: Station nineteen, no Station nineteen. That's probably better for me.

960
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, people could come, as the story goes. You could

961
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 4: come here during like halftime, an intermission. Back in the

962
00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:13,360
Speaker 4: day when they played hockey Mariucchi like, you got a

963
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,279
Speaker 4: little ticket, you came here, and I'm sure that went well.

964
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 2: There's no issues with that. I know what else has changed.

965
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 2: That's good.

966
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:20,359
Speaker 6: When I first went to college here, I guess when

967
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,920
Speaker 6: it came back. You know, the old Maryuchi was connected, right,

968
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 6: So I'll tell you what Some of those times you

969
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 6: would go down in the Hallway and this oh the smell.

970
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 6: Oh man, the pads from the old hockey that was tough.

971
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:34,839
Speaker 6: So what they've done now and having their own little

972
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:37,120
Speaker 6: area over there is a lot better for everybody.

973
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:40,759
Speaker 2: Yeah that makes sense. Yeah, yeah, anything else, I mean

974
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:42,399
Speaker 2: that was like three or four. That was nice.

975
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was that was That was excellent, good where

976
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:46,279

1062
00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,520
Speaker 2: what like Clym's was it his first year or second year?

1063

Speaker 3: First they were down to five or six guys and

1064
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:07,000
Speaker 3: they had an okay record, but the community just embraced.

1065
00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:08,359
Speaker 2: It, and that basically set the play hard.

Speaker 6: You know, there were guys that were on those teams

1069
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:18,440
Speaker 6: those early years that ended up sticking through it to

1070
00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:20,960
Speaker 6: when you know, things really changed, and those guys are

1071

00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:53,840
Speaker 3: at Drake for one year, and then the guy that

1086
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:55,839
Speaker 3: took your spot was there for a few more years.

1087
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:57,400
Speaker 3: And you two guys are going to be meeting up

1088
00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:01,080
Speaker 3: tomorrow night, Darren Devreez for Indiana, Nico Medven for Minnesota.

1089
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:04,359
Speaker 3: Two former Drake coaches Indiana and the Gophers tomorrow. Tell

1090
00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:08,000
Speaker 3: us about Darren Devrez's group of players that you'll see tomorrow.

1091
00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:11,279
Speaker 6: Boy, they're really impressive on film. They're playing at a

1092
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:12,920
Speaker 6: high level. They playing a high level on both ends

1093
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 6: of the fort. It's a very good defensive team. But

1094
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 6: what really pops off the charts is you know their offense,

1095
00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:19,160
Speaker 6: the way they shoot the ball. You know, his son,

1096
00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:23,120
Speaker 6: Tucker is just an exceptional shooter and score. He's got

1097
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:27,600
Speaker 6: great size, great feel. You know, he'll shoot that thing

1098
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:29,800
Speaker 6: from twelve feet behind the line, no problem. You know

1099
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 6: the other kid, you know, Wilkerson number three, He's as

1100
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,279
Speaker 6: good of a shooter and score two as I've seen,

1101
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:37,440
Speaker 6: and do a great job spacing, playing with each other.

1102
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:40,160
Speaker 6: They have great chemistry and so boy they can go

1103
00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:42,200
Speaker 6: on a ten oh run, you know, like like that.

1104
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:45,320
Speaker 6: So they're playing at a really really high level. But

1105
00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:47,400
Speaker 6: this is the Big ten. That's what it is, you

1106
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:48,719
Speaker 6: know what I mean, a lot of teams playing at

1107
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:50,600
Speaker 6: a high level right now. So I don't know, they're

1108
00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:53,360
Speaker 6: ranked in the top twenty five for a reason. So

1109
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 6: we'll have to go out there tomorrow. We're gonna have

1110
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:57,080
Speaker 6: to play with a lot of energy. Defensively, we're gonna

1111
00:45:57,080 --> 00:45:59,000
Speaker 6: have to execute. We're gonna have to shrink the margins

1112
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,919
Speaker 6: with you know, lowering turnovers, holding them to one shop,

1113
00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:05,600
Speaker 6: being great in transition defense, and just scrap and claw.

1114
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:07,000
Speaker 6: And you know one thing I'll say, you know, they

1115
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,200
Speaker 6: haven't played on the road yet, they've played a neutral game,

1116
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:11,160
Speaker 6: and you know, we've got to try to start to

1117
00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:15,080
Speaker 6: build that foundation of making the Barn a pretty pretty

1118
00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:16,800
Speaker 6: nasty place to play for opponents.

1119
00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, take us in that in our final minutes or

1120
00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:21,120
Speaker 4: so like, because every venue, and I'm sure it was

1121
00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:22,040
Speaker 4: like this in the Mountain West.

1122
00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:22,560
Speaker 2: You guys had some.

1123
00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:25,040
Speaker 4: Sneaky good venues there too, and you're dealing with altitude

1124
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 4: and all all kinds of different things. But I don't

1125
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:30,960
Speaker 4: think enough people understand how impactful home crowds are. And

1126
00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:33,960
Speaker 4: even you know, an extra thousand, two thousand people, if

1127
00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:37,000
Speaker 4: they're into it and they're the right people, it rattles teams.

1128
00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:38,319
Speaker 2: It can oh big time.

1129
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:40,120
Speaker 6: I mean, when you get your home crowd behind you,

1130
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:43,400
Speaker 6: and I've seen it in this place here across the street,

1131
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 6: it is very unique and it means everything you know

1132
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:48,520
Speaker 6: you can get you get these crowds behind you, get

1133
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:48,919
Speaker 6: them going.

1134
00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:50,319
Speaker 2: You can rattle the other team.

1135
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,719
Speaker 6: That brings a ton of energy and enthusiasm and kind

1136
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:55,440
Speaker 6: of an out of body experience for some of these

1137
00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,760
Speaker 6: guys right to perform at a level that they didn't

1138
00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:00,239
Speaker 6: even even realize they could. And so you know, that's

1139
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,600
Speaker 6: our charge. It's gonna come, it's gonna it's gonna happen.

1140
00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:04,719
Speaker 6: I can already, I can already feel it. And you

1141
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:07,239
Speaker 6: know tomorrow night's our first opportunity here in the Big

1142
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:08,279
Speaker 6: ten to see what we can do.

1143
00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:10,920
Speaker 4: Do you regret the fact that, because of how Coach's

1144
00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:13,160
Speaker 4: wardrobe has changed over the years, you won't be able

1145
00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,200
Speaker 4: to throw your coat into the crowd like Clemwood.

1146
00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:18,520
Speaker 2: You probably had to catch that coat a couple of times.

1147
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, I know, and it was he played it well

1148
00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 6: with me, you know what I mean, played it well,

1149
00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:24,600
Speaker 6: kind of loosen the tie a little bit, and I

1150
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:26,480
Speaker 6: didn't really do that with the pullovers. You guys, I

1151
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,279
Speaker 6: feel like now and they're all my dare just rip

1152
00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:34,040
Speaker 6: the pullover off and with something like Eric Mussel, Eric,

1153
00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:37,120
Speaker 6: that's not my deal. I feel like now and they're

1154
00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:38,279
Speaker 6: all my you know, I know them all. But the

1155
00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:39,440
Speaker 6: officials are too sensitive.

1156
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:39,800
Speaker 12: I do that.

1157
00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:41,640
Speaker 2: They team me up, and you know what I mean,

1158
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 2: Like there's.

1159
00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:45,239
Speaker 4: I think Patino got a tea for throwing the tie

1160
00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:47,600
Speaker 4: right the jacket they would lined with, but the tie

1161
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:49,200
Speaker 4: was over the line apparently.

1162
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:51,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, since it is now a rule if a coach

1163
00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:54,319
Speaker 3: throws anything, it's an automatic tech, which wasn't the case.

1164
00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:56,960
Speaker 4: We used to be a proper country exactly, you know exactly.

1165
00:47:57,160 --> 00:48:00,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, gosh, I don't have you know, to

1166
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,399
Speaker 6: get over it. A little bit too sensitive right now, Yeah,

1167
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:02,680
Speaker 6: it was.

1168
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 2: Did coach ever?

1169
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:06,440
Speaker 3: Was that ever orchestrated like I got to get this

1170
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:08,279
Speaker 3: place fired up, I'm gonna throw my coat or was.

1171
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:11,280
Speaker 6: I mean he never said that, but there was probably

1172
00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:13,400
Speaker 6: a little gamesmanship right and all that time was a

1173
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,560
Speaker 6: little bit upset, but maybe felt like, hey, we gotta

1174
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:17,520
Speaker 6: we gotta get him going and there's a way to

1175
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:19,799
Speaker 6: to to play to the officials like that a little bit.

1176
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:23,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, how is uh we got about thirty seconds

1177
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:25,800
Speaker 3: in terms of that your your demeanor on the sideline.

1178
00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:28,279
Speaker 6: At what point does it get to the point where

1179
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:31,600
Speaker 6: I may have to yell at a reff feel you

1180
00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:33,080
Speaker 6: know what I mean? It's just a feel of how

1181
00:48:33,160 --> 00:48:35,840
Speaker 6: things are going with the team. If you you feel like,

1182
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,160
Speaker 6: you know, somebody's not not giving you a fair shake,

1183
00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,640
Speaker 6: you know they're missing too many things or not communicating

1184
00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:40,960
Speaker 6: with you.

1185
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:43,520
Speaker 2: But you know, you got to pick and choose your batance.

1186
00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:44,200
Speaker 14: That's what I do.

1187
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:46,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I was gonna say you should be answering

1188
00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:46,759
