1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:05,000 Speaker 1: Doublogs also up where this our guest is residing right now. 2 00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:07,600 Speaker 1: Jimmy him Jimmy, how are you, Doug? 3 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:08,399 Speaker 2: I'm doing very well. 4 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 1: How are you doing great? Before we hit the end 5 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 1: of the basketball real quick, I did most of the 6 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 1: first segment talking about the Aguilar situations. Tell me just 7 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:22,600 Speaker 1: what you're hearing. I guess it's all going to come 8 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 1: down to this Friday. Maybe that won't even decide, but 9 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: kind of tell us that not the Tennessee part of it, 10 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 1: but that part of it where things stand as you 11 00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 1: see it right now, as you hear I've. 12 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 2: Had people that are very pessimistic that Aguilare will win 13 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 2: the case with this judge. I'm not as pessimistic. I 14 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:44,279 Speaker 2: think it's about fifty to fifty. I don't know how 15 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,760 Speaker 2: you predict what a judge is going to do. If 16 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:48,839 Speaker 2: a judge in Alabama is going to allow a pro 17 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 2: to resume his basketball career at Alabama, then who's to 18 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 2: say Aguilar is not going to get a reprieve and 19 00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 2: Big granted another year. So I don't know which way 20 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 2: this thing's going to go. It's really hard to predict 21 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 2: the judges. We've seen players get an extra year because 22 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 2: they went to junior college. Then Tennessee had a baseball 23 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,039 Speaker 2: player that was denied an extra year even though he 24 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,119 Speaker 2: went to junior college. So who knows. This whole thing 25 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 2: is a complete mess. I'm not sure what's going to happen, 26 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 2: and I wouldn't be surprised either way. On the ACLA. 27 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: Really well, there's no doubt about this Tennessee. I know 28 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 1: originally they felt like this was a long long shot. 29 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 1: It's most everybody did well. It's moved on to where 30 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: maybe it's not quite as much of a long shot. 31 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: Tennessee certainly's prepared for this, saved a scholarship for him. 32 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,399 Speaker 1: I mentioned starting the show though Tennessee's kind of in 33 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 1: a I guess in some ways it's a good situation, 34 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: but also you know, up in the air, what do 35 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: you do about you had to bring somebody in for 36 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: the transfer portal. You have three players on the team 37 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: right now that are quarterbacks, including the transfer portal player, 38 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: and then if Aguilar comes back, you have you have 39 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: four uh and you've got a situation there where you're 40 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: clearly going to have to have competition from it from 41 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: from McIntyre and Aguilar. I don't if he comes back. 42 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any doubt there's going to be 43 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: a strong competition in spring for that starting position. 44 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 2: That's interesting. I think if Bagular comes back, he's a 45 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 2: slam dunk starter, based on the fact he threw for 46 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 2: thirty six hundred yards, based on the fact that he 47 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 2: was brilliant in the first half against Georgia and against Florida. 48 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 2: He's got all that experience. I would be surprised if 49 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 2: there's a competition. 50 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: Oh, there's going to be a I don't think there's 51 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 1: any doubt there's going to be a competition. 52 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I would be surprised if there is one. 53 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 1: Well, we'll see. You would be surprised if it's competitive, 54 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: or you'd be surprised if Josh Haipel did not say, Hey, 55 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 1: this is going to the You two guys are fighting 56 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: this out for that Which one would you be surprised at. 57 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 2: I wouldn't be surprised as anything he says, but I 58 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 2: would be surprised if it's a true competition, because I 59 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 2: think Aguilar is way ahead to McIntire anybody else in 60 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 2: that quarterback room, and based on his performance, and also 61 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 2: I've looked at what quarterbacks do their second year under Hypel, 62 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 2: and they typically like Hendon Hooker, did make a significant jump. 63 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 2: So I would think Aguilar is the hands down starter. 64 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 2: So I just don't see much competition. 65 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: I don't. I would be very very I would be 66 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: shocked if that were true. On that. This is also 67 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: George McIntyre's second year under Hypel also, right. 68 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, but he didn't play. 69 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, well neither had neither had Nico came in, 70 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 1: had a pre year. Anyway, that's the debate. We'll see 71 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: what happens on that. First off, he's got to get 72 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: he's got to get past the the legal part of it. 73 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: He does, so, Yeah, and I think it's a good thing. 74 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: I really do, because at the very least, you're going 75 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: to have two guys battling. Now see who's going to 76 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: be the starter, And I think at the end of spring, well, 77 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 1: we'll we'll find out on that anyway. All right, let's 78 00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: get into basketball. Anytime Kentucky Tennessee played basketball, it's it's 79 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: almost always must watch. And boy, last night went right 80 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 1: down to the wire, didn't it. 81 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 2: It did? And Tennessee just can't get across the finish 82 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 2: line against Kentucky. You realize that Tennessee had been able 83 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 2: to hold the ninth to the seventeen point leading, not 84 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 2: sol the fourteen point leading in Roppe Arena. The Tennessee 85 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 2: be tied for first in the SEC with Florida. But 86 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 2: they can't. They just can't beat the second half of 87 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 2: Kentucky has just whipped Tennessee badly. This time they outscored 88 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 2: him forty one to twenty four. Now, Barnes said this 89 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 2: was a little bit more acceptable because he said his 90 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 2: team competed in the second half this time in Knoxville. 91 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 2: He said his team did not pete in the second 92 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 2: hand back, so they got that seventeen point lead. But 93 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 2: Tennessee went doug They went ice cold. They shot fifty 94 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 2: three percent from the field in the first half. They 95 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 2: were six of thirty twenty percent in the second half, 96 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 2: and a bunch of those shots were around the rim. 97 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 2: Tennessee's bigs were six of twenty one in shooting, and 98 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 2: I would say that all but about three of those 99 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 2: shots were within six feet. They did a poor job 100 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 2: of finishing and making layups and making the tough twos, 101 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 2: and that hurt them. I also thought that Bishop Boswell 102 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 2: got the bad end of a couple of whistles. There 103 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 2: were two absolute obvious charging calls in which he drew 104 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 2: and they called him for fouls. I thought those were 105 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 2: just horrible causes, like what's the defense a guy's supposed 106 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,359 Speaker 2: to do? But Tennessee's inability to shoot, and they also 107 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 2: they got a bunch of offensive rebounds. They got nineteen, 108 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 2: but Doug they only converted those into twelve points. That's 109 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 2: way too few. When you get eighteen rebounds on offense, 110 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 2: you should get at least nineteen points out of that, 111 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 2: and they didn't. But ultimately Tennessee didn't make the plays 112 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 2: late in the game they needed to make, and Kentucky did. 113 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 1: Kentucky's really been doing that all year long, though I've 114 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: I don't follow a whole lot of basketball, but I 115 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: follow them and Tennessee and a few other teams. They've 116 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 1: been not always second half team, but they they've been 117 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:30,559 Speaker 1: strong on that you mentioned, But seventeen in the half 118 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 1: first half, right, and then the other big key there 119 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: you kind of touched on it. Forty four points in 120 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: the paint for Kentucky over half their points and Tennessee 121 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 1: had twenty four, so plus twenty in the paint so, yeah, 122 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of things. Good ball game though, 123 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:48,919 Speaker 1: Yeah it was. 124 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 2: And the big difference on the paint points is Tennessee 125 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 2: couldn't make the layoups or of the close end shots. 126 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 2: And Tennessee probably should have had about forty points in 127 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 2: the paint instead of twenty four. They've got to do 128 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 2: better in the player that really struggled the two players 129 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 2: Scrillly struggle inside and that was a struggle who was 130 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 2: only four to thirteen. He just couldn't he couldn't hardly 131 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 2: buy a basket. And Dwayne Brown was only one of six, 132 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 2: and he had been their best closer around the rin, 133 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 2: their best finisher around the rin, and he ended up 134 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 2: getting offensive rebounds near the goal and he turned around 135 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 2: and kick it out because I think he lost confidence 136 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 2: and been able to score. But the lack of the 137 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 2: inside scoring really hurt Tennessee against Kentucky. 138 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: Jimmy, you've watched a lot of basketball for thirty five 139 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: thirty thirty five years of it at Tennessee. You've watched 140 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: a lot of really good young men come through there. 141 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: Let of young good young women come through there too. 142 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: By the way, where's an eight emment stand on that 143 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: list just so far, and I realized we're just roughly 144 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: halfway through the season. But where's he stand right now? 145 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 2: One of the most talented players I've seen in the 146 00:07:55,720 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 2: forty years I've covered Tennessee basketball. He is really come 147 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 2: into his own. He had some up and down moments 148 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 2: earlier in the year. I think when he had that 149 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 2: when he carried the team to that win against Texas 150 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 2: A and M, I think that allowed him that he 151 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 2: turned the corner at that point. His last five games, 152 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 2: he's averaging right at twenty five points a game. He 153 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 2: is definitely the go to player. They had a couple 154 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 2: of stretch in the second half in particular, where he 155 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 2: was not involved and so Rick Barnes had to call 156 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 2: plays to get into basketball. They didn't do a good 157 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 2: job of of getting him the ball on some of 158 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 2: their possessions during their second half drought when we were 159 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 2: having trouble getting baskets. But the guy's about six'. Eleven 160 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:45,079 Speaker 2: he shoots the ball with high off the. Head it's 161 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 2: not a low shot. Shooting he extends his arm when he. 162 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 2: Shoots it makes it extra difficult to. Block he's taken 163 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 2: to the basket once. Again he drew the most fouls 164 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 2: of Any tennessee. Player he drew eight fouls Against. Kentucky he's, 165 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 2: now for the most, part are doing a good job 166 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 2: at the file. Line hit five out of six Against. 167 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 2: Kentucky he's a great basketball player right. Now he wasn't, 168 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 2: earlier but he's a great player right. 169 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: Now and just listening to Coach, Barnes phil has he's 170 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 1: going to be improving in his ear goes, long so 171 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: should be should, anyway more experience you. Get but the 172 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:23,839 Speaker 1: boy's fun to. Watch he he really. Is give me 173 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: a thought on the on the conference right. NOW i 174 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 1: wanted to, start, well go, ahead do that first In 175 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 1: i'll bring it up something. Else go. 176 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:37,239 Speaker 2: Ahead florida has kind OF i can't say they've separated 177 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 2: themselves much because they only have one game, lead BUT 178 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 2: i Think florida's most complete team in the. League they've 179 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 2: got the best front, court they got an outstanding. Guard 180 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,559 Speaker 2: they Beat TEXAS a AND, m WHICH i wasn't surprised. 181 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 2: At so you Got florida sitting there at eight and, 182 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 2: two and in my, opinion they are the best equipped 183 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 2: team to make a long run in THE Ncaa. Tournament of, 184 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 2: course they won it last, Year kentucky has been on a. 185 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 2: Roll you, know one point that we're five and four 186 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 2: and The Big Blue nation was booing their Coach Mark. 187 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 2: Poe but since then they have been on a. Heater 188 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 2: and you mentioned their ability in the second. Half that's 189 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 2: the third game they have won when they trailed by 190 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 2: at least fourteen. Points so they're really good in the second. 191 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 2: Half they're really good at crunch. TIME a AND m 192 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 2: is a team THAT i think has come back to the. 193 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 2: Pack they're starting to play a tougher. Schedule arkansas has 194 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 2: got a really good. Team and the team that's kind 195 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 2: of surprised me a little bit the way they Falters. 196 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 2: Vanderbilt vandervelt had such a great start AND i think 197 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 2: they've lost three of their last seven, games and they 198 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 2: were down by what almost twenty points To, oklahoma which 199 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 2: is one of the worst teams in THE. Sec they've 200 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 2: hit a tail spin. Lately the other team to watch 201 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,719 Speaker 2: out for still to me Is. Alabama they got a 202 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 2: lot of, talent they have not played at the level 203 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 2: they had hoped. 204 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: To how about what's going, On but with the player 205 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: for REALLY i can't pronounce his, name came back of 206 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 1: basketball Player alabama that's running a lot of national national 207 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 1: talk right. Now they're gonna to get, That they're gonna 208 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,839 Speaker 1: get that. Situation ficked that that. Was i've seen a 209 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: lot of dumb things that THE ncaa has, done but granting, 210 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: THAT i mean that you just kind of touched on. 211 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: It you have situations like the baseball player didn't see 212 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 1: that didn't past and they led a guy that had 213 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 1: actually played a couple of years of quote professional football 214 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:40,839 Speaker 1: come back or? Basketball excuse, me come, Back, Yeah Charles. 215 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:43,959 Speaker 2: Bennioco so he was actually in THE G league for 216 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 2: about three. Years, yeah and he decides a judge granted 217 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 2: him the restraining. Order so the game of ten day 218 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,840 Speaker 2: and then they had some inclement weather and the judge, decided, 219 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 2: well let's give him ten more day. Extensions so he's 220 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 2: got twenty days before final. Ruling THE ncaa has fought 221 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 2: that they don't like. It, however there was a guy 222 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 2: that played in THE nba that's now playing At baylor 223 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 2: and he just got. Eligible what's going on? 224 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:14,679 Speaker 1: HERE i tell you who else didn't like at the 225 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 1: commissioner of The Southeastern conference came out really strong on that, 226 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: thing which in one, way one way surprised. 227 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 2: Me but, Anyway, yeah that's not what this should be. 228 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 2: About i'm strongly opposed to. 229 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: That, yeah well that's kind of going maybe a step 230 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: too far, Anyway, jimmy how about seventy two point four 231 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: million in the athletic departments coffers for the twenty four 232 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: to twenty five, season and you know, what it's going 233 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 1: to be more after the twenty five twenty sixth. Season 234 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: but pretty, big pretty big payout for being part of a. 235 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 2: League, absolutely AND i REMEMBER i don't know what The 236 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 2: big ten payout, is but there was some argument that 237 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 2: The big ten payout was a whole lot more than THE. 238 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 2: Sec i'm not sure about. THAT i saw those. Numbers 239 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 2: those are, huge and there's absolutely no reason with that 240 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 2: kind of money that the teams that typically are successful 241 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 2: in the league shouldn't continue to be successful because they've 242 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 2: got all the resources that they. Need somebody threw at, me, 243 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 2: well if they got all that money had come the 244 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 2: revenue sharing is only twenty point five. Million that's because 245 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 2: not every, conference and not every team that's in The 246 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 2: Division One football or THE fbs has that kind of. 247 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 2: Revenue The Big twelve didn't have that the other conferences 248 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 2: don't comforence you, usay all these others. Don't SO i 249 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 2: think that's how they reached the twenty point five. Million 250 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 2: but could teams Like tennessee teams in THE sec and 251 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,199 Speaker 2: The Big, ten could they do revenue sharing at thirty? 252 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,079 Speaker 2: Million sure they, could but not all the other schools. 253 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 2: Can SO i think they were trying to consider the 254 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 2: smaller schools whenever they set that. 255 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 1: Baseline, yeah that was part of that house. Settlement that 256 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 1: was what two years ago was. Settled and you, KNOW 257 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 1: i thought, OVERALL i think the judge out there was Named. 258 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 1: WILKIN i thought she handled it really. WELL i mean 259 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 1: that's you, know you're never going to get everybody behind. 260 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 1: Something but that appeared to be, well at least from my, 261 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: viewpoint pretty well as it handled pretty. Well so let's 262 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 1: just look at. It seventy two point four, million and 263 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 1: that's just from the money that comes from the conference 264 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: twenty point seven, Million so that leaves about fifty one 265 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: million for the athletic department to do something. With that's 266 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: the way you see. It, yes they're going to pay 267 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: the players a third of that. Roughly of, course you 268 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 1: got scholarships in. THERE i don't know How tennessee handled 269 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 1: at the university may eat part of, THAT i don't. 270 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: KNOW i doubt that they. Do, anyway that's pretty. Good 271 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: so we got a we got an athletic director that's. Running. 272 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 1: Ay what DO i? See revenues were somewhere around two 273 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 1: hundred million last? Year is that? Right? Yeah they they 274 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 1: more than two hundred. MILLION i think that's. 275 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 2: Right they exceeded two hundred million for the first time 276 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 2: with their, budget and in fact it's way. Up there 277 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 2: was almost double because AS i, recalled he made the 278 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 2: comment when he got when he became an athletic, Director 279 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 2: tennessee's budget was one hundred and forty million dollars and 280 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 2: then just about doubled. It so it's actually closer to 281 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 2: two hundred eighty. 282 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 1: Million, jimmy as, always, buddy thanks so. Much.
