You would 26 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 2: be the perfect person to ask this question because in 27 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 2: the last week, let's see Bearcat assistant GM Curter Wilson 28 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 2: is headed to USF According to reports today, the report 29 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 2: is a staffer is headed to Penn State to be 30 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 2: an assistant GM Jack Griffith. You, as well as anybody, 31 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 2: knows the inner workings and the importance of a front 32 00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 2: office structure. Now in college athletics, how significant are these 33 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 2: departures where you see football? 34 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 4: Incredibly significant. I mean Carter Wilson was in charge of 35 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 4: high school scouting recruiting. He's the guy that you know 36 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,639 Speaker 4: essentially put together the recruiting board for high school recruits, 37 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:20,639 Speaker 4: and Jack Griffith put together the board for the transfer portal. Wow. 38 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 4: So you've still got the head of the Snake and 39 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 4: Zach Grant at GM, but his two top lieutenants are 40 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 4: now headed elsewhere. So that you know the Carter Wilson 41 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 4: one it hurts, but you just finished your signing class, 42 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 4: so you know you've got time to replace that specific position. 43 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 4: But with Zach Griffith, that's you know, the portal opens 44 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 4: the second and he's been working on that, you know, 45 00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 4: diligently since the portal closed last year. And to lose him, 46 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 4: you know, basically on the eve of the transfer portal, 47 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:10,639 Speaker 4: that's a that's a significant hole to fill and Zach 48 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 4: Grant's gonna have to go find somebody that is equally 49 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 4: as adapt at mining the transfer portal. I mean, we 50 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 4: had a story about it that we talked about on 51 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 4: this show about a month ago where you know, eighteen 52 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 4: of the twenty one guys they brought in and the 53 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 4: transfer portal populated the too deep and you know also 54 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 4: Jake Golda, Brendan Soresby and you know guys guys that 55 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 4: were a big part of this team were part of 56 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 4: that transfer portal process from from Jack and that's a 57 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 4: that's a big hole to fill with the transfer portal 58 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 4: about the opens. 59 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 5: And by the way, Ched, I have the Liberty Ball 60 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 5: on radio, so I'll be calling you in the next 61 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 5: week or so to get all your information anyway, right, No, 62 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 5: so the same question. But now let's talk to the 63 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 5: talk about the players who is in danger of entering 64 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 5: the portal. I guess let's start with with Soresby. Is 65 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 5: he a guy that you think is going to stay 66 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 5: or is he out? Or what do you think? 67 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 4: And I don't think he's made a decision yet, but 68 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 4: he's going to be a very popular name if he 69 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 4: does enter the transfer portal. I've heard ballpark numbers and 70 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 4: you're talking millions at a new destination if he chooses 71 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 4: to go that route. So uh, with Cincinnati's financials, I 72 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 4: don't know that you know, they they can get all 73 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 4: the way up in that ballpark of what he's going 74 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 4: to be looking at. So it's definitely something that you 75 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,600 Speaker 4: have to keep an eye on because you know, if 76 00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 4: I had to bet you get one last shot at 77 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 4: this to go make a whole bunch of money, it's 78 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 4: going to be really difficult for Cincinnati to keep him. 79 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 4: And you know, they haven't made any announcements on whether 80 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 4: he's going to be at the Bowl game or not. 81 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 4: But I kind of would be surprised if he played 82 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 4: the way things are, you know where things stand at 83 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:17,479 Speaker 4: the moment. 84 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 2: Well, and that was going to be the follow up 85 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 2: chatter are they proceeding? How are they proceeding in terms 86 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 2: of expectations of from Sorsby to Corleone to Royer to 87 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 2: gold Ay even playing in the bowl game. 88 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 4: Well, Corleone and Goldey were both pretty beat up by 89 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 4: the end of the season. I think that announcement everybody, 90 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 4: you know, why did why did Dante Corleon announce he 91 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 4: was going to the draft when he was out of eligibility. 92 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 4: I had to guess that was, you know, I'm not 93 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:58,840 Speaker 4: going to be in Memphis. Yeah, so I wouldn't expect 94 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 4: to see him. I wouldn't be surprised to see Golday, 95 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 4: although gold as kind of a kind of a machine, 96 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,039 Speaker 4: so it wouldn't shock me if he wanted to play. 97 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 4: But we haven't had a practice availability yet, so I 98 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 4: don't know exactly what that's going to look like. But 99 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 4: you know, you just lost Christian Harrison, who was one 100 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 4: of your best defensive back to the transfer portal. I 101 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 4: wouldn't expect to see him play. And ultimately, I mean 102 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 4: you know this as well as I do, Rocky, in 103 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 4: this day and age, the last thing you want to 104 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 4: see as your bowl game opponent is a service Academy. 105 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 2: I was just going to s this is not exactly 106 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 2: an ideal matchup, is it. 107 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 4: No, because they're not going to have opt outs like 108 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 4: those guys. You know you can leave. I guess you 109 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 4: can leave enter the transfer portal your freshman and sophomore year, 110 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 4: but once you hit your junior year, like you're locked in. 111 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 4: You can't transfer out of the military academies. So they 112 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 4: don't have to worry really about the transfer portal with 113 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 4: their roster. They don't have to worry about whether guys 114 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 4: are going to be locked in for this. So in 115 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 4: terms of kind of worst case scenario of an opponent 116 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 4: in today's day and age, you really don't want to 117 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 4: play a service academy unless you're in the playoffs. 118 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, let me squeeze in one on the on the 119 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 2: basketball with a trip to Atlanta. 120 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 3: Take on Georgia. 121 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 2: How I mean, we know what they've done in non conference, 122 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 2: we know what's coming in the Big Twelve. We I mean, 123 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 2: if we're looking resume building and need to put things 124 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 2: on the board, I mean, how important is a Saturday 125 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 2: opportunity against Georgia. 126 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 4: It's critical. I mean, you can't if you're playing if 127 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 4: this is tournament or bust for West Miller, and you 128 00:07:56,040 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 4: really need to get over this hump. You've got to 129 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 4: have some wins in this non conference now You've got 130 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 4: you know, if you look at kenpom George's twenty four, 131 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 4: Clemson's twenty five, So you've got two golden opportunities remaining, yep, 132 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 4: to put some wins on the board. But you've got 133 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 4: to stack them. You've eliminated any and all legal room 134 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 4: with the way things had played out over the first 135 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 4: six weeks of the season. So for five weeks of 136 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 4: the season, whatever it is, you better start putting some 137 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 4: wins on the board. And that starts Saturday against a 138 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 4: team that really good on offense, really good on defense. 139 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:42,719 Speaker 4: They're averaging like ninety nine points a game that if 140 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 4: you look at their you know their metrics, they're good 141 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 4: at pretty much everything. So this is going to take 142 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 4: an incredible effort from Wes's team if they're going to 143 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 4: get this win. 144 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 2: All right, uh, Bowl season Portal, you name it, the basketball. 145 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 3: There's a lot going on. You guys are all all 146 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 3: over it. 147 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 2: Lay out what the listeners find at bearkadjournal dot com. 148 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,839 Speaker 4: I mean, if you like more information on the two 149 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 4: guys that left.
