1 00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:04,120 Speaker 1: It is the middle of the day show on a Friday, 2 00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: pre Arctic blast Friday. I'm in a day for powerlefl 3 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:15,280 Speaker 1: Foundation repair. If you're having massive snow drift on your 4 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:17,320 Speaker 1: house and one side of it falls in Randall, McCown 5 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:21,440 Speaker 1: can help you. Hopefully that won't be the case, Sam, 6 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:25,440 Speaker 1: I was expecting snow now already. Maybe I didn't pay 7 00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: close enough attention to the weather forecast, but I paid 8 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,640 Speaker 1: casual attention to just about every kind of weather forecast, 9 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 1: from the amateur meteorologist online to the professional meteorologist in 10 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:41,920 Speaker 1: the market. So now is it in Okata yet? I'm 11 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 1: not monitoring that. I probably should pull that up on 12 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 1: the internet. It's coming not necessarily the way that it 13 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 1: normally does from the north and the west usually, but 14 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,480 Speaker 1: I think it's coming from the west, south and the west, 15 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 1: just the west. 16 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 2: I saw the storm goes all the way from San 17 00:00:55,560 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 2: Antonio all the way up to New England, uh or 18 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 2: will go not saying that it's covering that much ground. 19 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 2: Maybe it is. I don't know. You called Day. We 20 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 2: need to get him on this deal. 21 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: I think we, I mean we should be able to. 22 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 1: He was probably busy right now. I'm gonna see if 23 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 1: he gets a good points base out some time for us, 24 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: he'd be doing live cut ins. I'm supposed to anchor 25 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: on Monday and Tuesday. They may not need me. I'd 26 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: be happy to do the sports for my driveway, but 27 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. 28 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 2: Man, Monday is going to be a track. It sounds 29 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 2: like we. 30 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,960 Speaker 1: Have lots of things to discuss on the show today. Uh. 31 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,119 Speaker 1: I do still want to continue the discussion from yesterday. 32 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:45,759 Speaker 1: If if there, if there is somebody that can jinx 33 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: this by talking about we're not going to get any 34 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: snow it might be me. So if I am going 35 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: to be snowed in until Tuesday or something like that 36 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: next week, I definitely need some board games and some 37 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: card games to play because I'm I don't do well 38 00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: with idle time, not good person at being bored. We're 39 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: gonna talk about championship weekend. We're gonna talk about the 40 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: OU women's hoops. A couple of points off of that 41 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:11,960 Speaker 1: last night Jenny Barronchack going X rated dropping F bombs 42 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 1: like a sailor last night after the game. 43 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,679 Speaker 2: Don't focus on that, Mark. I mean, that was an 44 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 2: awesome game to watch. I watched it from start to end. 45 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 2: I mean Alia Chavez, who really didn't have her best 46 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,840 Speaker 2: night offensively not let me say this. She was distributing 47 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 2: the ball very nicely and facilitating the offense, but then 48 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 2: just went nuclear in overtime. I mean, she is must 49 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 2: watch TV when she gets hot. 50 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: Hey, you you got me confused with somebody that thinks 51 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 1: that was bad. I mean, like I thought it was 52 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,399 Speaker 1: based on any kind of social media that I saw. 53 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: People were like, hell yeah, I loved it. That's awesome, 54 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 1: and it was good to see people that cared inside 55 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: the Lloyd Noble. All right, more on that, More on 56 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: that in a minute. I do want to start off 57 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 1: the show today with something that is a little niche, 58 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: little niche audience for you, but something that I've thought 59 00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: about a lot and I do really care about and 60 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: I think it's very important. Oklahuma Secondary Schools Activities Association 61 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 1: is going to read district football teams coming up for 62 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: the next two years, and that will happen. I think 63 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: that there's one submitted and they're already working on it 64 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 1: and it kind of gets approved and that there's a 65 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: little bit of a process. But the Olklahma City Public 66 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: Schools and the Tulsa Public schools have been playing as 67 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: members of the OSSAA in large classifications. If you look 68 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 1: at class six A Division two, there are Oklahma City 69 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: Public schools and they're the large Oklahoma City public school 70 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: in terms of enrollment as Northwest class and where your 71 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: dad went eighteen hundred students. But when Northwest class and 72 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: plays on Friday night and lines up against six A 73 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: Division two school chalk taw Still Water teams like that, 74 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 1: those programs will have one hundred, one hundred and ten 75 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: hundred and fifteen kids out where Northwest will have twenty 76 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: to twenty five. And that's just a bad way to 77 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: decide who plays in what class. And the scores of 78 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:26,359 Speaker 1: these games are they're mismatches, they're not competitive. It's a 79 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,160 Speaker 1: waste of a time of a school. And five A 80 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: is an area where a lot of these schools participate. 81 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: Carl Albert things like this. 82 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 2: It's just. 83 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 1: It doesn't work. It's not fair. Alex Levessey is a 84 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: football coach at US Grant. He's been there for a 85 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: long time and he is a graduate of the school. 86 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 1: And I've run into Alex at different events taking his 87 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: kid to passing camp in the summer. They've got a 88 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: Facebook page that kind of supports some of the athletes. 89 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 1: And every time they go play someone in a district game, 90 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,799 Speaker 1: if it's not another Oklahoma City Public schools, they're getting 91 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: their teeth kicked in and it's decided before you even 92 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: get there by the way that these schools are classified. 93 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 1: It's got to stop. I mean, the kids that are 94 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 1: going out for football there and that are trying to 95 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 1: ex maybe better themselves than an athletic scholarship, or try 96 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,159 Speaker 1: to compete, or just want to be part of something 97 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: that I believe in that makes high school junior high 98 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: students better. My experience of playing football was awesome because 99 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 1: it was hard. It wasn't easy. You go out there 100 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: and you're competing against somebody. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. 101 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: Teaches you a lot of lessons in life. Not to 102 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: quit that type of stuff, and the kids that are 103 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: out for football in the Oklahoma City Public schools not 104 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 1: to quit. I mean, I respect them. I respect them 105 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: so much. I respect coaches that are coaching these schools, 106 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 1: that are preparing game plans, going out knowing that they 107 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: aren't going to win. So this can happen where they 108 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,279 Speaker 1: are still part of the Oklaoma Secondary Schools Activities Association. 109 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: It can happen if they decide to withdraw from the 110 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: Oklahoma Secondary Schools Activities Association. Also public schools and Oklahoma 111 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:25,359 Speaker 1: City Public Schools are already doing this in softball and 112 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: it is working. Like they are playing each other. They're 113 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 1: having a championship series that involves those two public school 114 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: districts the end of the year, and they're seeing more participation, 115 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:45,559 Speaker 1: they're seeing better teams, and to me, that's incredible. Now, 116 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: for softball, you have nine players, some depth and different 117 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 1: issues there, but you're affecting a small group of people. 118 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,719 Speaker 1: Football's got twenty two dudes to play out there. So 119 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 1: when you have twenty guys out and you have to 120 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,920 Speaker 1: have twenty two guys line up and play, I mean 121 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: that's even a little bit of a safety issue for sure. 122 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: So if you look up and down the list, like 123 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: I would assume, Booker T. Washington has been incredibly successful 124 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: as an athletic department. It's a Tulsa Magnet school. They 125 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: compete kind of a little bit different from Tulsa Public schools. 126 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: They withdrew from playing in the Tulsa Public Schools Basketball Conference. 127 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: A few years ago while they still had that. I 128 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: don't know if they want to participate. If you're in 129 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: Oklama City Public schools, I wouldn't make it mandatory that 130 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: you participate. I can't see how anybody that is in 131 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 1: the Oklahma Public schools wouldn't want to participate. Plain and simple. 132 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: So to me, they're fifteen between Oklahoma City and Tulsa. 133 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: Just make this simple. You divide those up into a 134 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: large school district and a small school district, and then 135 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: you go at it. Large schools would be Northwest class 136 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: in US Grant Capitol Hill, Tulsa East, Central, Will Rogers, 137 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: Tulsa Memorial, Tulsa, Haile, Southeast in Oklahoma City. Small schools 138 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: would be classes as John Marshall, Douglas, Tulsa McClain, Tulsa Central, Star, Spencer, 139 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: Daniel Webster. And then if you needed one more Western 140 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: Heights they could even also reach out to this part 141 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 1: of the association to other schools. There are other schools 142 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: that don't have much success in football. Western Heights is 143 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: not at Oklahoma City Public schools. It's an independent school district. 144 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: They scored three touchdowns in ten games last year, not 145 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: ripping them. They're playing teams that are in Class five A, 146 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: they're playing Bishop McGinnis Newcastle programs that are incredible, that 147 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 1: are rolling along and no impediment in their way. So 148 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: in order to get into this group, you need to 149 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: have some vetting of how many kids are out for football, 150 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: and you should cheat monitor these ways kids are declared 151 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: eligible ineligible all the time. I know it's not perfect, 152 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: and there are probably some people that try to skew 153 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:51,839 Speaker 1: the numbers, but if you've got less than twenty five 154 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: or thirty kids out for football, come on join this conference. 155 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: We're gonna play for a championship, and we're gonna play 156 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: games that matter every week, and we're gonna play games 157 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: that are worth practicing for, that are worth going out for, 158 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: that are worth part of being in the process. Because 159 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I don't have any idea how you 160 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: could be a football player at classes sas or a 161 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: US grant, or be a football coach at those schools 162 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: and do this. I mean, it's amazing to me. Now 163 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: here's the problem with this. You're gonna move some schools 164 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: up that are not gonna like it. There're gonna be 165 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: some schools that go up from five A six A 166 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 1: Division two. Some schools, quite a few schools that go 167 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 1: up from four A to five A, and hey, that's 168 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: not good for us. In high school athletics, everybody has 169 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 1: an agenda, and I wish there were more people that understood, hey, 170 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: we need to do what's best for everyone, not just us. So, hey, 171 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: you've got a good team and you're bumped up. You 172 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: got to go compete against a little bit different people. Man, 173 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: you go up to five A, Carl Albert Man, they 174 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: hadn't lost a game, that won fifty in a row. 175 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: They're good teams in all classes. But maybe that raises 176 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: the bar. They bump Bixby up from six A Division 177 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: two to six A Division one, and instead of being 178 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: scared of Jinks in union, they whip their ass. I mean, 179 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: and so it can be done. But Bixby playing Jinks 180 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: with one hundred and twenty students out for football. Jinks 181 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: had one hundred and twenty students out for football. That's 182 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 1: a fair fight bumping up somebody from class four A 183 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: to class five A. When you've got eighty kids out 184 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: for football, Class five eight teams have eighty five ninety 185 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: kids out for football. It's a fair fight. It's a 186 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: fair fight, but it's not a fair fight when you 187 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 1: got twenty kids standing on the sideline against the program 188 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: that's got ninety to one hundred kids out. And so 189 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:01,959 Speaker 1: everybody's gonna come up with the reason why, no, no, 190 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: do it. Do it now, don't wait two more years. 191 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: Do it. The athletic directors at Tulsa Public Schools, at 192 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 1: Oklahoma City Public Schools, they know that they need this. 193 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 1: They know I think it would make a difference in 194 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,959 Speaker 1: a ton of kids' lives that sometimes people don't care 195 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: as much about as others. That's sad to me. But 196 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: the ones that are putting the effort into this need 197 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 1: to be rewarded with something that can be fair. Just 198 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: here's some of these numbers. Northwest Classen last playoff win 199 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: nineteen sixty eight, US Grant last playoff win nineteen ninety eight, 200 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 1: nineteen fifty eight before that, last playoff win for Capitol 201 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 1: Hill nineteen seventy eight. There have been some schools that 202 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: had some success. Our good friend Rashaw Woods won a 203 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: state championship at John Marshall Douglas High School has won 204 00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: a state championship in twenty ten, but there's some other 205 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: schools that just Danil Webster never won a playoff game 206 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: history of the school. Southeast won a playoff game in 207 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,079 Speaker 1: two thousand and three. The last one before that was 208 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: nineteen ninety seven. Now people are texting in, they're asking 209 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: about like other sports, basketball, you only have five players 210 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: on a basketball team that start. Oklahoma City Public Schools 211 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: and Tulsa Public Schools have some incredible basketball teams and 212 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 1: they've got good coaches, coaches that have been there a 213 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: long time. As texts with my good friend Walt brew 214 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 1: at Southeast last night. It's not a problem in basketball. 215 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: There's no safety issue in basketball. It's a problem in 216 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: football because of the number of people that play in it. 217 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: So you don't have to do this in all sports. 218 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 1: It needs to be done for football and the OSSA 219 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: at times when schools go independent. Gaiman has done that. 220 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 1: I understand why Gayman wants to do it. They haven't 221 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 1: competed very well. They got to get on a bus. 222 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,319 Speaker 1: It's much easier for them to play an independent schedule. 223 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: But they left them in a district and it created 224 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: a sevent team district. You can't do that. You have 225 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: to pull these teams out of the districts bump up 226 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 1: teams from the lower class. Those teams are gonna complain, 227 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,559 Speaker 1: but he's gonna have to sit down and tell them, Hey, look, 228 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: I know it's not it's tough. It's bad. It's unfortunately 229 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,319 Speaker 1: for you guys. I'm sorry the chef to go up. 230 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: But think about all of these kids in the Klomas 231 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 1: City Public School district that are getting killed every Friday night, 232 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 1: that care enough to go out and play football. It's 233 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,840 Speaker 1: gonna be better in the long term. And I would 234 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: think that most of my friends that are coaches out 235 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: there would actually support this and say, yeah, we we 236 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: would rather play a game that's gonna bring us a 237 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 1: good gate and that is gonna bring us competition. Schools 238 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 1: get beat all the time that aren't Oklama City Public Schools, 239 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: Closo Public Schools by big margins. That's just part of 240 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: it how it goes. But it's fair. At least it's 241 00:13:55,960 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 1: a level playing ground. This is not a level playing ground, 242 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: So you have to give these kids a chance. You 243 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: have to do it. I mean, the playoff series could 244 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: be very easy. You could take do it just like 245 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 1: the NFL. You could have division winner small and large 246 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 1: two wild cards, have them playoff, then you get to 247 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: a semi final and there you go. And the discrepancy 248 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: in size from Northwest Classon which has eighteen hundred and 249 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: forty students to Daniel Webster, which has three sixty two 250 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 1: isn't as much of a deal right now, or it 251 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: wouldn't be for two years because of the participation. But 252 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, if you can get 253 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 1: for the Oklahoma City public schools and the coaches and 254 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 1: the kids that are there, fifty sixty seventy kids out 255 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: for football because they're not getting their teeth kicked in 256 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: every Friday night by some big school, it's got one 257 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: hundred kids out. How much better is that for everybody? 258 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: How much better is that for the education, which is 259 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 1: what it should be about. I mean, sports are part 260 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 1: of the education system. You're learning as a football player 261 00:14:56,240 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: through sports, toughness, win success. How to deal with that, 262 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: how to deal with losing all of those type of things. 263 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: Think of how many more kids immediately would have that 264 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: experience than do. Now. This is simple, It's simple. It 265 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 1: needs to be done now. The next two weeks I'm 266 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 1: gonna harp on it. Will we go through this? Just 267 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 1: redistricting process. Try to have some guests on to talk 268 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 1: about it. It's not an anti OSSAA stance at all. 269 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: These teams do not have to withdraw from the OSSAA 270 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: to participate in their own league that can be sanctioned 271 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 1: by the governing body of the state. I think the 272 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: biggest thing that needs to happen here is the OSSA 273 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 1: needs to stand up to the schools that are going 274 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: to have to move up and just say, look, you 275 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: would agree, right, this isn't fair. 276 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 2: Absolutely, it's not fair. Okay, you're right on the money 277 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 2: mark this. I got one question on this. Is there 278 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 2: a model that a different state has used that is 279 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 2: similar years because it seems like just common sense that 280 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 2: this should happen After listening to your whole spiel there. 281 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I mean different class different states 282 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 1: decide differently. And I mean somebody's texting me about private 283 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 1: and public schools and stuff. Okay, hey, that's another problem 284 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: I understand, and that is a problem that people are 285 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: passionate with the fire of a thousand sons about. To me, 286 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: it's the advantage that private schools have that can recruit 287 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 1: players or bring in in scholarships and other that stuff 288 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: to compete like in Class three A in Oklahoma. I 289 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 1: thought it was just fantastic this year between Jerry Ricky, 290 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 1: the coach at Lincoln Christian and Corey Cole, the coach 291 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 1: at Sulfur because they were on center stage of all 292 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 1: this fight between public and private schools, and they talked 293 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 1: about how they developed the relationship and they talked about 294 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: the mutual respect that they had for each other because 295 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: they had incredible programs the difference in the private and 296 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: public schools and didn't close to this. It's not close 297 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: to this. I mean, yeah, there may be a little 298 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 1: bit of unfairness there one way or the other. May 299 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: be a little bit of unfairness in private schools. I 300 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 1: think have a complaint now is like you win, they 301 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: just bump you, keep bumping you up in class size 302 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 1: and usually they fare pretty well. So there's going to 303 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 1: be an advantage there. We can fix that another day. 304 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 1: Let's do what's right for Oklahoma City public school kids 305 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:21,399 Speaker 1: in Tulsa public school kids who usually don't have people 306 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: sticking up for them the way that people do in 307 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: a private school. Dude, in other states, they determine it differently, 308 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: but it should be at least looked at how many 309 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: guys do you have suiting up for that game on 310 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 1: Friday night? Not how many kids do you have in school? 311 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,400 Speaker 1: Northwest class and got eighteen hundred and forty six students. 312 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,120 Speaker 1: That's top thirty in the state. When they go out 313 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: there on Friday night, they're in the bottom one hundred 314 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: out of three hundred. So we'll talk about it. I 315 00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: didn't want this to dominate the show. I just wanted 316 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 1: to tell you something I'm passionate about and something I 317 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: would really really This is an area I spent a 318 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: lot of space, that spent a lot of time in 319 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,200 Speaker 1: over the last few decades, and so I just wanted 320 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,400 Speaker 1: to get my thoughts out there on trying to support 321 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: something that I think needs to happen. And let's let's 322 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:11,919 Speaker 1: wait and think about it. No, let's not think about it. 323 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 1: Let's do it. Let's do it. 324 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 2: I love it, Mark, all right, I love it. And 325 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 2: you're focusing sorry, go ahead, Yeah, go ahead. I was 326 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,400 Speaker 2: just gonna say, you're focusing on the important thing, right, 327 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:22,439 Speaker 2: I mean, not the size of the school or how 328 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 2: many kids are in the school, but how many kids 329 00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 2: are going out for the football program, right, Because We've 330 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 2: seen this problem for a long time, even fifteen years 331 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,399 Speaker 2: ago when I was in high school. I mean, the 332 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 2: US grants of the world. It's not even it's just 333 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 2: not fair. It's not fair, and those kids deserve to 334 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 2: play meaningful games. 335 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,120 Speaker 1: Anyway.

We've definitely got to get into college basketball 343 00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: of the Weekend, the NFL of the Weekend women's basketball 344 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 1: game last night, which was fantastic, and a ton of 345 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 1: other stuff. You're listening to the Middle of the Day's 346 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: show on the Sports Animal. All right, welcome back, it 347 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 1: is the Middle of the Day Show. 348 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 3: A couple other. 349 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 1: Topics, uh, quick points on what we said before. The 350 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 1: Enid High School had a really bad year this year. 351 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 1: They were behind forty nine to nothing to Bixby in 352 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 1: the first quarter. Remember that they ran the clock the 353 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: entire time. I mean, but again, Enid Big School a 354 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: lot more double the kids out for football as what 355 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 1: o Kolyma City public schools have. They're going independent. They're 356 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 1: not going to play in a district the next two years. Okay, 357 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: I understand, give them some time to reorganize it. But 358 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: the OSSA is still going to have them slated in 359 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: a district to my understanding, which means they would schedule 360 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: at mid North and not play jinks. I don't. That's 361 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: not the way to do this. The way to do 362 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 1: it is just move them out, move them up. Next 363 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,679 Speaker 1: man up goes into the higher group. Those people are 364 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: going to complain when you set them down and look 365 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: them in the eye and say, yeah, you gotta go up. 366 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 1: But how many kids you have out for football?

What I know, you 368 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: care about your kids, but the kids and they'll come 369 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 1: to see public schools just as much human as your kids. 370 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 2: And you're not focusing on record as much as you are. Participation. 371 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: Participation. Yeah yeah, I'm like, what's your record gonna be? 372 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 1: If you line up with exactly the kids against one hundred, 373 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:40,120 Speaker 1: it's gonna be owing something.

I think both the athletic directors in the 397 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 1: Tulsa and Oklama City are are definitely on board. They 398 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 1: want this to happen. I mean, I think, not speaking 399 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: for them, but they're looking for ways to improve how 400 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 1: that competes.

We had to play Rogers. 428 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 5: We beat them fifty to nothing. You know you play, Hey, Leedison, 429 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 5: it cannot be that hard to look and go. Hale 430 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 5: is one and eight every year. Let's put the Tulsa 431 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 5: Public schools. And I understand what you're saying about participation, 432 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 5: but I think record has to go a little bit 433 00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:46,199 Speaker 5: into it too. And then hey, if Hale wins for 434 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 5: two years, okay, bump them up to third, you know whatever, 435 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 5: bump them up a class. But can you imagine how 436 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,400 Speaker 5: many kids more kids will have out the next year 437 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 5: because they're actually getting to play and they're winning and 438 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 5: their success and I am just so glad to hear 439 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 5: you talking about this. It has to be done. Somebody 440 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,920 Speaker 5: has to step up, and just like you said, do it, 441 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,560 Speaker 5: and you said there was other things that we could 442 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 5: be talking about, but this is really important. And I 443 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 5: came from the i mean the private school sector and 444 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:29,400 Speaker 5: saw there were ten parents when we played Will Rogers. 445 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:32,439 Speaker 5: It's just not fair and not fun for anybody. So 446 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 5: great job. That's the keep pushing. 447 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: Thank you, I appreciate it, And that's the plan. 448 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 2: Hey. 449 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 1: If you build the numbers up and you increase activity 450 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 1: and participation, which is what everyone wants across the board, administrators, students, 451 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,479 Speaker 1: everything that's best for everybody, then you go back in, 452 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 1: go back in and compete, compete at the level where 453 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 1: your school is. I mean, it's a situation that you 454 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 1: can't to say, well, let's wait and see. I mean, 455 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: like you have to fix it now. You have to 456 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: fix it now. And they'll probably take a couple of 457 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: years for the participation to get up and people to 458 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:10,120 Speaker 1: get interested in what goes on and things like that. 459 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 1: But it's gonna save these schools. I mean, and I 460 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 1: think you heard the passion in which Chuck spoke with 461 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 1: as a guy that's taught for thirty years at the school. 462 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 1: I mean, those people are going through it. I don't 463 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: think there's passion at some school that's gonna have to 464 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,199 Speaker 1: go up from four eight to five eight. Because this 465 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: is going to happen that, Oh my god, this is 466 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 1: going to be terrible for our kids. 467 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 4: It's not. 468 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 1: It might be terrible for your kids winning a state championship, 469 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 1: but you at least have a chance to compete to 470 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:38,399 Speaker 1: get better.

Let's go 535 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 1: to roberts Hell of roberts Hey. 536 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 6: Thanks for thanking much all. Got a question. I'm talking 537 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 6: about the schools in the alignment everything number of players, 538 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 6: but on the opposite, in small schools, little bitty kinds 539 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 6: of schools that have to play in state tournament against 540 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 6: private Christian schools. I never played volleyball and make the 541 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 6: state tournament and the first team they had to play 542 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,600 Speaker 6: was a private Christian school who had flown all over 543 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 6: the United States playing tournaments, you know, all over the 544 00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 6: East Coast. Every player on the team was a senior. 545 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 6: And we're playing with a small town and you know, 546 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 6: I don't have that. 547 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: I don't have a good don't I don't like I'm 548 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: not saying I don't have a good answer that I don't. 549 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't sit here and pretend to know 550 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: what's best for everything, and that goes on in high 551 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 1: school sports, and there definitely is inequity in other areas. 552 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: I just I don't think that when you're playing volleyball 553 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 1: against another team, you know, nobody's gonna get hurt out 554 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 1: there because they're playing both ways against the team that's 555 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 1: got too deep platoon. That. I know that it's not fair, 556 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 1: but it enrollment is usually pretty equal when it comes 557 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 1: to small schools. I mean, it's not you're not as 558 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 1: a small school playing against a huge school. There's less 559 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: teams that play volleyball than other sports, so there may 560 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: be a little bit of difference in an equity between 561 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 1: the class. But man, there's some small schools out there 562 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,360 Speaker 1: that have teams that play together from the fourth grade on, say, 563 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 1: similar situations that drive all over the state, are all 564 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 1: over different places and do those type of things. I mean, 565 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 1: I feel for you, I just don't think that it is. 566 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 1: It's the difference in the inequality that goes on. 567 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 6: So private school scholarship they recruit and everything else, and 568 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 6: small skills you play with who grew up in your town. 569 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 6: Not always, Yeah, nowadays it's not. Maybe because nowadays kids 570 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 6: the open transfer you know, kid kids what they want. 571 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:48,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't. I don't. I can't. Hey, I can't. 572 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: I can't fix everything with that. I mean, I just 573 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 1: they're they're definitely there are schools that actively recruit players 574 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: that move in and their coaches out there that have been 575 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:57,720 Speaker 1: doing a lot of that for years. Look at the 576 00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 1: the you know, the Asher baseball program when a gazillion 577 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 1: state championships in the small schools. Great coach, but they 578 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 1: had players from every town in Pottawaame County there. So, 579 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 1: I mean, hey, it is that is a problem. I 580 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: would agree with you. It's tough. Hey, thanks for Carl. 581 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,120 Speaker 1: I appreciate that. I mean that that is an issue. 582 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 1: I agree with Robert, but I don't think that it 583 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: has the urgency to fix. It's the same thing that 584 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: does in football with with Oklahomas City and Tolsa Public schools. 585 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 2: Let's go to Cliff. What's up Cliff? 586 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 7: Hey, Mark, I totally agree. We had it on the 587 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 7: football It's it's just awkward for everybody, even the great, 588 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 7: the really good teams. You know, they they don't know 589 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 7: what to do when they play those teams. So but 590 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 7: and I knows, say tries tries hard to I got 591 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:48,400 Speaker 7: friends you know it's tough. 592 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:49,720 Speaker 4: Hey, when I was calling. 593 00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 7: About looking back on the National Championship in football, two questions. One, 594 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 7: what teams do you think, legitimately now could have won 595 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 7: the National Championship with a little bit of a break? 596 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 7: I mean, I believe Indiana was the best team, but uh. 597 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 3: And then. 598 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 7: I would like to believe that OU had the defense. 599 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 4: And the kicking game to win a national championship. 600 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 7: This year or or you might disagree with that barely. 601 00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 7: That's fine, but I know they don't have the offense. 602 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 7: You gotta have all three. So I just wanted to 603 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:28,479 Speaker 7: hear hear your thoughts on both us. 604 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: No, I think you have the defense of the kicking 605 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 1: game to win the National Championship. I completely agree with you. 606 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 1: I O use defense, I don't. I mean, it's six 607 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 1: or half dozen between OU's defense and the Indiana defense, 608 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 1: the Tech defense, they're all up there. Numbers wise across 609 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 1: the board this season. How many, Sam? It's a tough 610 00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: question because we are we talking like I think, so 611 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: much changed from the time that they made the pairings 612 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 1: until the time we played the National Championship game. 613 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 2: So what was his question? How many teams out of 614 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 2: the twelve could have won it. 615 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean. 616 00:34:17,880 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 2: The Tennessee was Miami. 617 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 1: Well, I don't look at it like that, like if 618 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,360 Speaker 1: you just look okay like Oregon. To me, they couldn't 619 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:28,240 Speaker 1: have won it. I mean they got annihilated like they Okay, 620 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 1: I mean I see what you're saying. Now, Okay, they 621 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:33,640 Speaker 1: had a weakness on the offensive line that wouldn't have 622 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,799 Speaker 1: allowed them to win that many games in a row 623 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 1: against good teams. I really don't know the answer that question. 624 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 1: I feel like, oh, miss Miami, Indiana. I mean a 625 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,239 Speaker 1: and m Aggie. Dave's going to Texas and say, we 626 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:49,760 Speaker 1: just we lost in Miami by you know, smallest of margins. 627 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, right, and that was a 628 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,879 Speaker 2: really windy game. Marcel Reid, though, turns it over. 629 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's I think they're more than people usually think 630 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 1: because there's more parody in the sport. Like I know, 631 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 1: I don't want to put words in Kale's mouth, but 632 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,359 Speaker 1: Cale basically doesn't think there's that many teams that could 633 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 1: win the national championship. We even had the bet at 634 00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 1: the beginning of the year. He said there were only 635 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,880 Speaker 1: eight and the teams that played for the championship were 636 00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 1: both outside the top eight at the beginning of the year. 637 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 1: I think there's more than you think today. But I 638 00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 1: think you have to be playing your best football at 639 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: the right time. 640 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 2: Which makes it all the more shocking that they're sticking 641 00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 2: with twelve teams in the playoff, including auto bids to 642 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 2: each Power for champ regardless of ranking, and Notre Dame 643 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:44,799 Speaker 2: gets an that large bid as we already talked about 644 00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 2: with the memorandum, if they are ranked in the top twelve. 645 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's more. I think it's a little 646 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 1: bit more than that. So let's go to Jason. What's up? Jason? 647 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:03,440 Speaker 8: Hey, Mark Hall going good. I don't know exactly what 648 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 8: y'all are talking about with the OSSA, but there's ever 649 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 8: gonna be a real fix. You know what do you 650 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:11,880 Speaker 8: You're you gonna move them to Texas is because they 651 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,240 Speaker 8: win a bunch? Like I get what people are saying, 652 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 8: my son place, my son plays kind of small football, 653 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 8: But I don't know how you ever fixed that. 654 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:20,759 Speaker 4: You know what I mean? 655 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 8: The discrepancy between the good teams and the bad teams 656 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:23,880 Speaker 8: from class to class. 657 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:26,759 Speaker 1: Well, okay, hold on, that's what we're talking about. I'm 658 00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 1: talking about. Oh Oklahoma, say the public schools, that's okay, 659 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,520 Speaker 1: that's not about bad teams and good teams. I'm talking 660 00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:34,279 Speaker 1: about they're gonna be bad teams and good teams. But 661 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 1: I'm talking about you have to make it fair participation wise. 662 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,919 Speaker 1: You can't have Oklahoma City and Tulsa public schools kids 663 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,359 Speaker 1: playing in Class six A, Division two or Class five 664 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 1: A with twenty five players out against schools that have 665 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 1: one hundred players out. That that's that's all kinds of 666 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 1: issues there. Yeah. So I'm just saying is that he's true. 667 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:56,840 Speaker 1: What they Yeah, what they need to do is is 668 00:36:56,920 --> 00:37:01,320 Speaker 1: they need to they need to allow Clomb Secondary Schools 669 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,800 Speaker 1: Activity Association can govern this or they don't have to 670 00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:05,920 Speaker 1: govern it if the if the O s s A 671 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:09,399 Speaker 1: doesn't want to make this change, both of Claum City 672 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 1: and Tulsa can pull out and create their own conference. 673 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 8: But I think if that makes much more sense. Now, 674 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 8: I see what you're saying. Well, okay, so what if 675 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:17,800 Speaker 8: the O s s A did want to do it, 676 00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,680 Speaker 8: Are they going to force those private schools that complained 677 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:22,719 Speaker 8: last year ensued the O S s A. Are they 678 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 8: going to force them up a class? 679 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 1: Well? Yeah, again, like I said, Hey, Hey, this is 680 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 1: a This is an entirely different topic that we could 681 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:31,879 Speaker 1: talk about for months on the radio, and I don't 682 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,240 Speaker 1: know that we're going to get anywhere solving that because 683 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 1: I think you've had It's it to me is bumping 684 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:43,800 Speaker 1: schools up continuously that the private schools have somewhat of 685 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:47,960 Speaker 1: an advantage. It's not the same type of advantage in 686 00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:49,880 Speaker 1: the situation that I'm talking about. I'm just trying to 687 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 1: fix this. I don't have any kind of answer for 688 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 1: what you deal with private and public schools. A lot 689 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:55,360 Speaker 1: of a lot of places just say, hey, private schools, 690 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 1: you're on your own. Pulic schools, you're on your own. 691 00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:57,799 Speaker 1: I mean, that's the way you do. 692 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,719 Speaker 8: What you're saying. But the private school thing, to me 693 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:03,400 Speaker 8: is it's just kind of like a crapshoot. Like my 694 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,360 Speaker 8: son goes to Blancher, Right, there's a high likelihood Blancher 695 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,399 Speaker 8: is gonna bump up to five A when they redo 696 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 8: the districts this offseason, like Newcastle did Live Cycle. That's 697 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,280 Speaker 8: just the luck of the draw. Newcastle couldn't want. Newcastle 698 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,319 Speaker 8: couldn't win a playoff game in four A. They've been 699 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 8: to the Semis two years in a. 700 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 2: Row in five A. 701 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:21,080 Speaker 8: So they're just kind of the luck of the drawing, 702 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:22,760 Speaker 8: and the private schools have a quick complaining. 703 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: I love that for Newcastle, and I would assume that 704 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:30,319 Speaker 1: other other school districts they do the same thing. I mean, 705 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 1: those guys they went up and they competed. To me, 706 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:37,239 Speaker 1: there are like Carl Aubert, They're great, all right. The 707 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 1: rest of five A, you know, four A, five A 708 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 1: a lot the same because you've got a lot of 709 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 1: schools that are on equal playing ground. The enrollment, the 710 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:48,080 Speaker 1: site of the kids that are out, all those type 711 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:51,359 Speaker 1: of stuff. It's competitive for the most part. Their teams 712 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,759 Speaker 1: that aren't very good. I mean, I grew up in 713 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,239 Speaker 1: a town that has no tradition in football. I don't 714 00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 1: won a playoff game since nineteen fifty nine. I went 715 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:03,239 Speaker 1: to playoff games, lost one close and otherword not as close. 716 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 1: But I'm just saying, is that that that's on us 717 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:09,520 Speaker 1: to get better. But at least we weren't playing Tulsa 718 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 1: Union when I was in high school. 719 00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:14,800 Speaker 2: So I think a lot of people say Mark jumped 720 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 2: in late at least looking at the text line here, 721 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:20,640 Speaker 2: and that may may have heard the caller asking about 722 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,719 Speaker 2: the private schools. You were not talking about private schools whatsoever. 723 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 2: If people missed your opening monologue, you want to summarize 724 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 2: it again, just for the people that joined late. 725 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 1: Yes, it is that in the next couple of weeks, 726 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:34,799 Speaker 1: football redistricting is going to be done for the twenty 727 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 1: six twenty seventh season, and I implore Oklahoma City and 728 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:42,400 Speaker 1: Tulsa Public Schools to come to an agreement of some 729 00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:46,400 Speaker 1: kind with OSSA to allow them to play each other. Basically, 730 00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:49,759 Speaker 1: you don't have to withdraw from the association. You just 731 00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:54,360 Speaker 1: play in your own conference. You can have a large district, 732 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:56,839 Speaker 1: small district. We went through all that kind of plan 733 00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,960 Speaker 1: and listen again, it is not a platform today to complain. 734 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 1: I mean at this point in time to private schools 735 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 1: versus public schools, all those type of things. We've been 736 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 1: dealing with that for a long time. There are no 737 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 1: easy answers there. I mean, there are answers, but I'm 738 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:14,719 Speaker 1: not sure that everybody's on the same page. The reason 739 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 1: that I'm bringing this up today is because there's a 740 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 1: like a two week window to get this handled. Once 741 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,840 Speaker 1: they put them into districts and go forward and all 742 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: that stuff, it will cause a massive headache for everybody 743 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 1: that is involved in that process to have to pull 744 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,360 Speaker 1: them out of districts, or them not to play the 745 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 1: district schedule and all these type of things. It has 746 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:36,759 Speaker 1: to happen now. So that's why I'm bringing the subject up, 747 00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 1: is that we can actually get something done on this 748 00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 1: in the next two weeks that'll allow the kids in 749 00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,400 Speaker 1: these Oklahoma City public schools, tolus, the public schools to 750 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:48,080 Speaker 1: have a chance to compete against each other. I just 751 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 1: want to talk. I want to talk about the OU 752 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 1: women's win last night. 753 00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:53,319 Speaker 2: I know I can't wait.

Interesting higher, uh looking for a little bit 793 00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,879 Speaker 1: of a connection with someone from OU and I don't 794 00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:02,520 Speaker 1: see it. So had an outside search firm business back 795 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:07,480 Speaker 1: on University Illinois an attorney from Chicago that has been 796 00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:13,640 Speaker 1: in athletics for about four or five years. So I 797 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,280 Speaker 1: think that is it's kind of interesting those being reported. 798 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:20,320 Speaker 1: We will see if that's done. Roger Denny, the deputy 799 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 1: director of athletics and the COO of the University of Illinois. 800 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,839 Speaker 1: And again I'm patting myself on the back of this one. 801 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:30,960 Speaker 1: This was a higher that was not going to be 802 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:34,239 Speaker 1: an administrator. It was a higher of somebody that's going 803 00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:36,920 Speaker 1: to oversee how to get money, how to dole out 804 00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:40,640 Speaker 1: the money, how to create money, all of those type 805 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:44,800 Speaker 1: of things. We have changed courses in the direction of 806 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 1: college athletics. Okay, I said, though, I think somebody is 807 00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:54,279 Speaker 1: going to so we can have to hire a basketball coach. 808 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:57,200 Speaker 1: But anyway, the had a friend of mine tell me 809 00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:59,160 Speaker 1: that they gets people that know him and love him. 810 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 1: So it's good. It's cool. Good stuff.

Yeah, uh yeah, get a dealer. Make 920 00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,160 Speaker 1: sure that make sure that's like only a one time activity, 921 00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:55,200 Speaker 1: because if you start sinciting blackjack games at your house, 922 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:59,359 Speaker 1: you could have your door broken down. Not a good idea. 923 00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:04,520 Speaker 1: How about those women's basketball last night? They win, they win, 924 00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:07,960 Speaker 1: they beat South Carolina. And if you'd asked me before 925 00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:11,080 Speaker 1: that game going in the OU women's basketball team, every 926 00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:16,480 Speaker 1: time they are they're top fifteen team, and maybe they 927 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:21,600 Speaker 1: bump up at times to borderline top ten. Around there, 928 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:25,160 Speaker 1: there's not that much parody in women's basketball. There's an 929 00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:27,320 Speaker 1: elite group at the top, and then it takes a 930 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:32,440 Speaker 1: pretty significant step down to me around five or six. Like, 931 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:35,399 Speaker 1: I'd love to play a bet with you. I take 932 00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:37,560 Speaker 1: a few teams and give you the fields. Give me Yukon, 933 00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:42,239 Speaker 1: give me South Carolina, give me LSU, and I'll take 934 00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:44,239 Speaker 1: the field or somebody else can have the field, because 935 00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:47,200 Speaker 1: those are the teams that win the championships. Don Staley, 936 00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:54,000 Speaker 1: Gino Arima, Kim Mulki, that's the teams that are winning. 937 00:50:54,040 --> 00:51:01,040 Speaker 1: And O, you got lit by Mulky on Sunday. So Thursday, 938 00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:04,600 Speaker 1: South Carolina comes in with an even higher ranking, and 939 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:09,759 Speaker 1: oh you beat them. It's a huge step up. It's 940 00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:13,279 Speaker 1: a huge step up. Uh to win that game. And 941 00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:15,920 Speaker 1: then you got Jenny Buranchick. After the game, she's addressing 942 00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:19,320 Speaker 1: the team and she's fired up, she's dropping f bombs 943 00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:22,360 Speaker 1: and all that caught on television and asking to explain 944 00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:24,640 Speaker 1: why she was cursing in the postgame press conference and 945 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:28,640 Speaker 1: stuff like that. I mean, heck, that's all you were 946 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:31,440 Speaker 1: tucked to Jim yesterday. Like Jim did appreciate some curse words. 947 00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:35,560 Speaker 1: This is this is the women's game becoming mentioned to me, 948 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:38,239 Speaker 1: be more mainstream. I think the ultimate would have to 949 00:51:38,280 --> 00:51:45,000 Speaker 1: appreciate those curse words. I mean, bleeping, we're bleeping back. 950 00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:48,439 Speaker 1: We just want to bleeping big game. Heck yeah. 951 00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:51,360 Speaker 2: And she said after the game that she wasn't making 952 00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:54,719 Speaker 2: some statement as you know, ou women's basketball is back 953 00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:56,759 Speaker 2: in the sense of we have arrived. She was saying, 954 00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:59,400 Speaker 2: we're back to playing our ball. After you know, if 955 00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:01,719 Speaker 2: you watch the LU game, they obviously weren't playing their 956 00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:04,239 Speaker 2: best basketball. And now to go up against the number 957 00:52:04,280 --> 00:52:06,320 Speaker 2: two team in the country, South Carolina and put on 958 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:09,080 Speaker 2: that performance. And it wasn't just a lee at Chavez. 959 00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:11,480 Speaker 2: Like I said, Reagan Beers saved their butt on that 960 00:52:11,600 --> 00:52:14,480 Speaker 2: last possession at the end of regulation, right with the putback, 961 00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:16,919 Speaker 2: and I couldn't believe that Chavez didn't get a touch 962 00:52:16,960 --> 00:52:19,880 Speaker 2: on that possession. But Verholst with the behind the back pass, 963 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:22,360 Speaker 2: you had Van with the clamps on the last possession 964 00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 2: in regulation, and then obviously Chavez goes nuclear in overtime. 965 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:29,800 Speaker 2: But that was a full team performance. That's what she 966 00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 2: was talking about. She was fired up and these girls 967 00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:34,359 Speaker 2: have that belief in her. I would let my girl 968 00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:35,520 Speaker 2: play for Jenny Bronchi. 969 00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:38,719 Speaker 1: Okay, I disagree with you. I think she was in 970 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:40,759 Speaker 1: a moment of euphoria in which she just didn't know 971 00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:43,040 Speaker 1: what to say, and she just said something because they've 972 00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:45,239 Speaker 1: never been where they were after last night, Like I 973 00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:47,440 Speaker 1: was just saying, they've not been at that level. They 974 00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:50,600 Speaker 1: haven't beaten a team within that fraternity at the very 975 00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:53,880 Speaker 1: top of teams women's college basketball championships, like going to 976 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,640 Speaker 1: final fours or getting out of even for them lately 977 00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:59,000 Speaker 1: Sweet sixteenth and stuff like that. They never been there. 978 00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:02,520 Speaker 1: Serry Cole was, I mean, but Jenny Barancheck hasn't, so 979 00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:06,160 Speaker 1: we're back. Maybe maybe she meant like that we're not 980 00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:08,319 Speaker 1: playing to the level that she thought that they could, 981 00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:11,040 Speaker 1: but they haven't played to this level ever. So I 982 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,640 Speaker 1: think that's just something that came out of her mouth 983 00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:17,960 Speaker 1: as a stream of consciousness of we just did something 984 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:22,600 Speaker 1: that was awesome. I mean, sometimes you have you know, 985 00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:24,640 Speaker 1: I go back to my Blackwell days. We had a 986 00:53:24,640 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 1: guy one time in the locker room that didn't play 987 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:28,000 Speaker 1: very much, and he wanted to give a speech to 988 00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:30,080 Speaker 1: the team after a big win, and he just started 989 00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:32,680 Speaker 1: like saying nobody nobody still knows what he said, but 990 00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:35,520 Speaker 1: the team like erupted with like, ah, right, I mean 991 00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:40,280 Speaker 1: they just don't. I think she was just she's just happy, 992 00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 1: and that's that's what ended up coming out of her mouth. 993 00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:46,920 Speaker 1: I mean, but she's a competitor and that was impressive. 994 00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:49,520 Speaker 1: The other thing that I noticed in the last two 995 00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:55,200 Speaker 1: games is like, I am just so worn raw of 996 00:53:55,400 --> 00:53:58,560 Speaker 1: excuses for the men's program, and I don't think there's 997 00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:02,080 Speaker 1: really many people out there to film making them. But 998 00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:05,240 Speaker 1: the women's team, they're fun to watch. They got an offense, 999 00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:09,359 Speaker 1: they get up and down the floor. If you can't 1000 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:11,880 Speaker 1: tell me that the women's team has nil resources that 1001 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,360 Speaker 1: aren't available to the men's team, somehow their recruiting efforts 1002 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:17,960 Speaker 1: allowed them to get one of the top players in 1003 00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:22,360 Speaker 1: the country. They had a payer. But the amount of 1004 00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:23,839 Speaker 1: money that the men's team is paying and the amount 1005 00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:25,080 Speaker 1: of money that the women's team is paying, and the 1006 00:54:25,120 --> 00:54:30,120 Speaker 1: men are paying more so the women's team had a 1007 00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:34,480 Speaker 1: bunch of people in the arena. There were a bunch 1008 00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:36,200 Speaker 1: of people in Lloyd Noble Less on a Thursday night. 1009 00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:37,799 Speaker 1: There's all kinds of other stuff to do, high school 1010 00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:45,239 Speaker 1: basketball games going on all over the state. So is 1011 00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:47,320 Speaker 1: it a bad arena? It's traffic. I mean all of 1012 00:54:47,360 --> 00:54:51,120 Speaker 1: these excuses I've heard, why oh you men can't win 1013 00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:54,680 Speaker 1: games in that arena that it doesn't hold water with me. 1014 00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:57,399 Speaker 1: If people showed up for the women's game the last 1015 00:54:57,440 --> 00:54:59,880 Speaker 1: two times, I mean you had to, like you had 1016 00:54:59,880 --> 00:55:01,439 Speaker 1: a go to the secondary market to buy a ticket 1017 00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:02,640 Speaker 1: if you wanted to get in on Sunday. 1018 00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:07,000 Speaker 2: So they need to keep showing up the game last night, Yeah, 1019 00:55:07,080 --> 00:55:09,560 Speaker 2: j Doub was there. He was fired up for Alia Chavez. 1020 00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:12,640 Speaker 2: They need to keep showing up because what Alia Chavez 1021 00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 2: is doing as a freshman, only people like Caitlyn Clark 1022 00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:21,000 Speaker 2: or Paige Becker's or you know, Hannah Headalgo those three 1023 00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:25,120 Speaker 2: other girls averaged eighteen points, four rebounds, four assists in 1024 00:55:25,239 --> 00:55:28,160 Speaker 2: the last ten seasons. So my point is Chavez is 1025 00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:31,719 Speaker 2: doing things that only Caitlyn Clark and Paige Beckers have done. 1026 00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:35,520 Speaker 2: I mean, ou is very very lucky to have this talent. 1027 00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:37,640 Speaker 2: Right now, she's gonna be playing in the WNBA. 1028 00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:41,879 Speaker 1: Yes, that's true. Uh yeah, no, Hey, I'm I'm also 1029 00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:44,080 Speaker 1: just go go to the games. I mean, I've been 1030 00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:48,719 Speaker 1: to two men's games this year, so I I think 1031 00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:51,319 Speaker 1: that's fantastic that they won. So congratulations to them. And yeah, 1032 00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:55,040 Speaker 1: don't don't don't get on her for them the curse 1033 00:55:55,080 --> 00:55:58,200 Speaker 1: words that my TV. So it's okay, all right. 1034 00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:01,399 Speaker 2: We did get the pitch five year old. By the way, 1035 00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:05,239 Speaker 2: is it legit, Absolutely legit. He was at a game 1036 00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:08,359 Speaker 2: at Lloyd Noble looks like, so he's a big basketball fan. 1037 00:56:08,400 --> 00:56:09,560 Speaker 2: We're gonna get him the tickets. 1038 00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:13,000 Speaker 1: Okay. I hate the fact that there are a lot 1039 00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:14,800 Speaker 1: of other people that had great suggestions that we couldn't 1040 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:16,880 Speaker 1: give the tickets to. I wish we could give them 1041 00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:19,200 Speaker 1: to everybody. But we did it for the kids, Sam, 1042 00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:19,920 Speaker 1: you did it for the kids. 1043 00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:20,279 Speaker 2: That's right. 1044 00:56:21,400 --> 00:56:23,920 Speaker 1: We have championship games to talk about AFC and the 1045 00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:26,560 Speaker 1: NFC this week and get a lot of great suggestions 1046 00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:28,879 Speaker 1: on what to do if we are snowed in. Said, 1047 00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:31,400 Speaker 1: there's a part of me that the longer we go 1048 00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:35,319 Speaker 1: here today more makes me think I eve got a cat. 1049 00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:37,360 Speaker 1: That's pretty good since in the weather that wants outside 1050 00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:40,480 Speaker 1: right now?

It's pretty sure I had When 1067 00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:45,400 Speaker 1: the producer can't hear the host, this is a nightmare. Yeah, 1068 00:57:45,440 --> 00:57:49,400 Speaker 1: it isn't good. That isn't good. Okay. I will give 1069 00:57:49,440 --> 00:57:53,680 Speaker 1: you my level of confidence on the two championship games 1070 00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:57,280 Speaker 1: this weekend. I have a fairly high level of confidence 1071 00:57:58,040 --> 00:57:58,720 Speaker 1: on the rams. 1072 00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:01,000 Speaker 6: Give it. 1073 00:58:01,720 --> 00:58:08,640 Speaker 1: I give it an eight. I think the Rams have experience, 1074 00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:16,320 Speaker 1: they have quarterback, they have one of the best wide 1075 00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:19,760 Speaker 1: receivers in the red zone I think in the history 1076 00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:23,240 Speaker 1: of the NFL, Devonte Adams just a discipline route runner 1077 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:26,120 Speaker 1: that gets open. They have pukin Nakua, who I think 1078 00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:29,520 Speaker 1: is in the top three wide receivers in the NFL 1079 00:58:29,600 --> 00:58:32,160 Speaker 1: right now. They've got a really good running game and 1080 00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:36,560 Speaker 1: their veteran team. And so we talk about all the 1081 00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:39,280 Speaker 1: time that the playoffs is different than the regular season. 1082 00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:42,040 Speaker 1: I think that's the case in all sports. Now. The 1083 00:58:42,160 --> 00:58:44,000 Speaker 1: Rams have gone on the road two times in the 1084 00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:47,400 Speaker 1: playoffs and it have been fortunate, very fortunate to win 1085 00:58:47,560 --> 00:58:51,360 Speaker 1: last week, somewhat fortunate to win even in the first 1086 00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:55,480 Speaker 1: round against Carolina when they were a big favorite. So 1087 00:58:55,960 --> 00:58:59,000 Speaker 1: I just think this is going to be a difference 1088 00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:03,800 Speaker 1: in experience, and the Rams are going to do what 1089 00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:06,760 Speaker 1: it takes to face the tough crowd, the tough defense 1090 00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:11,920 Speaker 1: and everything in Seattle and get the win. That game 1091 00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:14,400 Speaker 1: is expected to be a little bit closer than the 1092 00:59:14,560 --> 00:59:19,400 Speaker 1: AFC game according to the oddsmakers. So I've got the Patriots, 1093 00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:21,160 Speaker 1: and my level of confidence in the Patriots is somewhat 1094 00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:23,520 Speaker 1: less than an eight. I think it's to me more 1095 00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:31,080 Speaker 1: around a six. The Matt talked about in the first 1096 00:59:31,160 --> 00:59:33,640 Speaker 1: hour of the show today that the difference judged in 1097 00:59:34,080 --> 00:59:39,520 Speaker 1: Jared's Didham to bo Nicks was something related to the 1098 00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:44,320 Speaker 1: points spread by like three point seven points, which is 1099 00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:48,479 Speaker 1: an analysis that takes into consideration all kinds of things, 1100 00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:52,880 Speaker 1: all kinds of algorithms, numbers and simulated models and stuff 1101 00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:54,400 Speaker 1: like that. So I know, if you're a guy out 1102 00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:56,000 Speaker 1: there that's not a better and you say, well, I 1103 00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:57,480 Speaker 1: don't know, wan't to talk about the points spread all 1104 00:59:57,480 --> 01:00:01,320 Speaker 1: the time? Well, it's just a reflection of how people 1105 01:00:01,440 --> 01:00:03,680 Speaker 1: that go through simulations of the game and all that 1106 01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:05,160 Speaker 1: stuff see how the game is going to turn out. 1107 01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:08,200 Speaker 1: Obviously they don't always turn out that way, but Samon 1108 01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:12,000 Speaker 1: tell me the difference. Have we ever seen a difference 1109 01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:17,560 Speaker 1: like this in quarterbacks? In a quarterback that could be 1110 01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:21,280 Speaker 1: the NFL MVP and a quarterback that hasn't thrown a 1111 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:25,360 Speaker 1: pass in two years and that's going to decide who 1112 01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:26,320 Speaker 1: goes to the Super Bowl? 1113 01:00:27,040 --> 01:00:33,520 Speaker 2: I mean, where would you put Nick Foles versus Tom Brady? Well, 1114 01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:37,160 Speaker 2: Nick Foles that year. You know this because you're an 1115 01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:37,640 Speaker 2: Eagles fan. 1116 01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:40,440 Speaker 1: Right, they put him in a Monday night game against 1117 01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:44,040 Speaker 1: the Raiders, and that game may have been quarterback worse 1118 01:00:44,080 --> 01:00:45,880 Speaker 1: than the one I saw CJ. Stroud quarterback. 1119 01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:47,560 Speaker 2: It's true it was that bad. 1120 01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:50,920 Speaker 1: I mean, it was horrible, but it took him a 1121 01:00:50,920 --> 01:00:55,640 Speaker 1: little bit of time and then once he got going, 1122 01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:59,040 Speaker 1: he developed some confidence. And that I don't think that 1123 01:00:59,120 --> 01:01:01,080 Speaker 1: Philly team had his much talent around them as the 1124 01:01:01,120 --> 01:01:03,640 Speaker 1: Philly team last year that won the championship. Right, But 1125 01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:07,920 Speaker 1: it's a good point. But Nick Foles, to me, it 1126 01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:11,240 Speaker 1: was in a way better spot than what Stidham is. 1127 01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:15,120 Speaker 2: I completely agree. And I'm going with the Patriots because 1128 01:01:15,160 --> 01:01:17,440 Speaker 2: I picked them before the playoffs and because of the 1129 01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:19,960 Speaker 2: quarterback difference like you just talked about, But I do 1130 01:01:20,080 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 2: feel like they're balanced and even though everyone focuses on 1131 01:01:23,240 --> 01:01:27,080 Speaker 2: Drake may rightfully so, that Verbel defense has been playing 1132 01:01:27,160 --> 01:01:29,960 Speaker 2: really good football and they make big plays in big moments. 1133 01:01:30,640 --> 01:01:32,960 Speaker 2: So I'm going with the Patriots. I know a lot 1134 01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:35,120 Speaker 2: of people like a Cam Newton is saying it's the 1135 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:37,400 Speaker 2: easiest road to the super Bowl of all time that 1136 01:01:37,520 --> 01:01:38,960 Speaker 2: I mean, that may be the case, but I do 1137 01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:40,320 Speaker 2: think they're going to make the Super Bowl. 1138 01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:47,560 Speaker 1: The problem for the first Didham is start naming playmakers 1139 01:01:47,600 --> 01:01:48,800 Speaker 1: for me on the Broncos offense. 1140 01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:50,240 Speaker 2: Courtland Sutton. 1141 01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:54,000 Speaker 1: Didn't have a catch last week until like the third quarter. 1142 01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:55,440 Speaker 2: Mims. 1143 01:01:56,280 --> 01:01:58,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just gonna tell you, I just don't 1144 01:01:58,280 --> 01:01:59,800 Speaker 1: I don't think that they're playing I don't think there's 1145 01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:02,800 Speaker 1: the playmakers on den RJ. Harvey. I just I don't 1146 01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:05,120 Speaker 1: think there's a lot of weapons there that are Super 1147 01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:08,000 Speaker 1: Bowl caliber weapons. Let's compare the weapons, and this is 1148 01:02:08,040 --> 01:02:10,320 Speaker 1: why if the Broncos face the Rams in the Super Bowl, 1149 01:02:10,320 --> 01:02:12,080 Speaker 1: the Rams are going to be a nine point favorite. 1150 01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:15,520 Speaker 1: I mean, start comparing Rams offensive weapons to Broncos offensive weapons. 1151 01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:21,080 Speaker 1: And knowing what we know about the Patriots is that, 1152 01:02:22,080 --> 01:02:24,280 Speaker 1: you know, the one thing that they really do well 1153 01:02:24,440 --> 01:02:27,920 Speaker 1: on defense. The best two levels of their defense are 1154 01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:33,760 Speaker 1: their corners and their defensive lineman Milt Williams Christian Barmore, 1155 01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:38,120 Speaker 1: two big dudes that kind of stop the run on 1156 01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:42,160 Speaker 1: their own. So now we have a defense capable of 1157 01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:45,600 Speaker 1: stopping the run with their two big guys that can 1158 01:02:46,280 --> 01:02:49,880 Speaker 1: bring pressure without having to worry about getting killed in 1159 01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:53,080 Speaker 1: the running game against a quarterback that hasn't thrown it 1160 01:02:53,160 --> 01:02:57,640 Speaker 1: pass in the NFL in two years. I don't. I'm 1161 01:02:57,680 --> 01:02:59,400 Speaker 1: becoming more and more confident the more that I talk 1162 01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:01,880 Speaker 1: that this is just it is what it looks like 1163 01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:05,000 Speaker 1: it should be. Is the Broncos are in an unfortunate 1164 01:03:05,080 --> 01:03:09,959 Speaker 1: situation and it's too much to ask in six days 1165 01:03:10,040 --> 01:03:13,000 Speaker 1: to prepare for this game. I don't know, but I 1166 01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:17,080 Speaker 1: do respects. That being said, I respect the Broncos crowd, 1167 01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:21,320 Speaker 1: I respect the Broncos defense, and I respect the Broncos coaching. 1168 01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:26,120 Speaker 1: Those are all going to be tough obstacles to overcome. 1169 01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:29,880 Speaker 1: You look at the scenario. Could Drake May fumble the 1170 01:03:29,920 --> 01:03:31,360 Speaker 1: ball a couple of times the way that he has 1171 01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:35,400 Speaker 1: so far in the playoffs, and Denver, you go in 1172 01:03:35,440 --> 01:03:37,200 Speaker 1: there and Drake May fumbles early in the game or 1173 01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:39,120 Speaker 1: fumbles just in the manner that he did against the Texans, 1174 01:03:39,160 --> 01:03:41,200 Speaker 1: and the Broncos are bringing those back for touchdowns, then 1175 01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:43,400 Speaker 1: you don't have to do a whole lot on offense. 1176 01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:47,000 Speaker 1: You can you can kind of hold in their steady. 1177 01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:50,440 Speaker 1: If on the other stretch, if the Patriots score early, 1178 01:03:51,560 --> 01:03:53,680 Speaker 1: do not see Stidham leaving a comeback. 1179 01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:57,320 Speaker 2: For That's the one thing that the Broncos have is 1180 01:03:57,360 --> 01:04:00,360 Speaker 2: a pass rush that could give Drake May some issues. 1181 01:04:00,440 --> 01:04:04,840 Speaker 2: Nick Benito, former Sooner having a great year, and Drake 1182 01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:06,840 Speaker 2: May has turned the ball over a little bit. So 1183 01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:09,520 Speaker 2: I do wonder if Sean Payton is the type of 1184 01:04:09,600 --> 01:04:13,120 Speaker 2: guy just with his personality even though their offense has 1185 01:04:13,200 --> 01:04:17,440 Speaker 2: been lackluster, or kind of just letting the defense win 1186 01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:20,480 Speaker 2: the games throughout the season. I wonder if Sean Payton's 1187 01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:22,920 Speaker 2: the type of guy to say Stidham just let it fly, 1188 01:04:23,360 --> 01:04:25,960 Speaker 2: you know, and and their offense might actually look a 1189 01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:28,640 Speaker 2: little more, a little bit more dynamic with Stidham. I 1190 01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:32,640 Speaker 2: don't know, just because you kind of have nothing to lose. 1191 01:04:32,880 --> 01:04:36,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if if the offense is more dynamic 1192 01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:40,240 Speaker 1: under Stidham than bow Knicks, then that's a would have 1193 01:04:40,280 --> 01:04:42,920 Speaker 1: been a real problem. I think for the Broncos that's a. 1194 01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:45,200 Speaker 2: But I'm just talking play calling wise. It's not an 1195 01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:47,640 Speaker 2: indictment on bow Knicks as much as it is you know, 1196 01:04:47,680 --> 01:04:49,280 Speaker 2: we got nothing to lose, just let it fly. 1197 01:04:53,680 --> 01:04:55,360 Speaker 1: I don't. I just don't. I don't see that working. 1198 01:04:55,480 --> 01:04:57,600 Speaker 2: I don't either. That's why I'm going with the Patriots. 1199 01:04:58,480 --> 01:05:01,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, So I was asking you my level of 1200 01:05:01,320 --> 01:05:03,800 Speaker 1: confidence in the Rams is eight. My level of confidence 1201 01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:05,360 Speaker 1: the Patriots is six. What do you have? 1202 01:05:06,200 --> 01:05:09,800 Speaker 2: I would go Patriots seven out of ten and I 1203 01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:12,720 Speaker 2: would go Rams five out of ten. I can't figure 1204 01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:15,360 Speaker 2: out this game. I mean, the Seahawks have looked really, 1205 01:05:15,440 --> 01:05:19,680 Speaker 2: really good, But the one thing that just sticks in 1206 01:05:19,720 --> 01:05:22,840 Speaker 2: the back of my mind is the Rams own Sam Darnold. 1207 01:05:22,960 --> 01:05:25,720 Speaker 2: He's thrown six picks against the Rams this season and 1208 01:05:25,800 --> 01:05:29,840 Speaker 2: twelve against the Rams total, And so I can't pick 1209 01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:34,240 Speaker 2: against the Rams when they have the MVP. And speaking 1210 01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:36,720 Speaker 2: of quarterback differences, I think this is just as much 1211 01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:39,240 Speaker 2: of a difference in this game as the other game 1212 01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:40,840 Speaker 2: in the playoffs. 1213 01:05:41,080 --> 01:05:44,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's a I think it's a difference. 1214 01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:46,560 Speaker 1: So I'm with you on the Rams. I'm with you 1215 01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:47,120 Speaker 1: on the Rams. 1216 01:05:49,120 --> 01:05:52,320 Speaker 2: The public is heavy on the Patriots, obviously. Is the 1217 01:05:52,400 --> 01:05:54,360 Speaker 2: public on the Rams or the Seahawks. 1218 01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:58,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's a good question that the line 1219 01:05:58,320 --> 01:06:01,120 Speaker 1: being the home team less in a field goal favorite, 1220 01:06:03,440 --> 01:06:09,920 Speaker 1: uh tells me that that the you know what I'm saying, 1221 01:06:09,920 --> 01:06:11,240 Speaker 1: I don't think that. I don't think that line is 1222 01:06:11,280 --> 01:06:12,840 Speaker 1: going to move back to three to three and a half, 1223 01:06:12,880 --> 01:06:14,440 Speaker 1: three and a half like at past three. 1224 01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:16,680 Speaker 2: Right When we talked to Todd, he was saying that 1225 01:06:16,760 --> 01:06:19,440 Speaker 2: it did momentarily move to three, and the Rams took 1226 01:06:19,440 --> 01:06:21,200 Speaker 2: a ton of money and it moved right back down 1227 01:06:21,240 --> 01:06:21,840 Speaker 2: to two and a half. 1228 01:06:23,200 --> 01:06:27,360 Speaker 1: Mm hmm, right. I think there would be the Rams 1229 01:06:27,480 --> 01:06:29,000 Speaker 1: money on that. I just I think the Rams are 1230 01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:30,760 Speaker 1: the best team playing. Its gonna be tough for them 1231 01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:33,240 Speaker 1: to to be beaten. 1232 01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:36,000 Speaker 2: One thing the Rams do that's underrated is run the 1233 01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:39,120 Speaker 2: ball too. We always want to focus on Puka DeVante Adams, 1234 01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:41,480 Speaker 2: but Kyri and Williams in that run game has been 1235 01:06:41,560 --> 01:06:43,240 Speaker 2: really solid and that's what sets up a lot of 1236 01:06:43,280 --> 01:06:44,480 Speaker 2: the things for the wide receivers. 1237 01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:47,560 Speaker 1: Seahawks run it well too, but they lost one of 1238 01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:49,840 Speaker 1: their best running back two good ones. I mean, they 1239 01:06:49,880 --> 01:06:55,160 Speaker 1: lost Charbone last week, but Corwin and uh Kyra Williams 1240 01:06:55,200 --> 01:06:57,520 Speaker 1: really good for the Rams. I got more breaking news 1241 01:06:57,600 --> 01:06:58,280 Speaker 1: man today. 1242 01:06:58,920 --> 01:06:59,200 Speaker 2: What's that? 1243 01:07:00,720 --> 01:07:02,120 Speaker 1: Oh? You look like they've got a new a d. 1244 01:07:02,320 --> 01:07:04,480 Speaker 1: It also looks like Jerry Schmidt is going to be 1245 01:07:04,560 --> 01:07:08,840 Speaker 1: doing a little bit different thing with strength and conditioning 1246 01:07:08,920 --> 01:07:15,440 Speaker 1: program that he's going to be moving up to kind 1247 01:07:15,480 --> 01:07:21,120 Speaker 1: of an exec more executive role. So Schmidty getting near 1248 01:07:21,640 --> 01:07:25,840 Speaker 1: the age of retirement and I can see them certainly 1249 01:07:25,920 --> 01:07:29,000 Speaker 1: not not wanting him to go away like they would 1250 01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:32,960 Speaker 1: want him to be around. One of the best to 1251 01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:37,959 Speaker 1: ever do it. So huge fan of Jerry Schmidt. Great, 1252 01:07:38,080 --> 01:07:41,200 Speaker 1: great dude. Maybe I'm a bigger fan of his because 1253 01:07:41,240 --> 01:07:43,200 Speaker 1: I never had to work out with him yelling at me. 1254 01:07:44,720 --> 01:07:47,440 Speaker 1: But I definitely would be in better better shape if 1255 01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:48,400 Speaker 1: I if I had done that. 1256 01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:51,920 Speaker 2: So messing with Smitty in the summertime. 1257 01:07:53,080 --> 01:08:00,880 Speaker 1: According to ohe you insider, yeah he uh, But I 1258 01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:05,120 Speaker 1: mean such a such a good job, tough position, but uh, 1259 01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:08,280 Speaker 1: I get the I see Smitty every once in a while, 1260 01:08:08,320 --> 01:08:10,200 Speaker 1: I have a chance to talk to him away from work, 1261 01:08:10,280 --> 01:08:11,960 Speaker 1: and I always enjoy those conversations. 1262 01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:18,080 Speaker 2: Always good, always laughed about the go ahead. I laughed 1263 01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:20,840 Speaker 2: about the golfers like Brad Dalkey and Quig Cummins. They 1264 01:08:20,840 --> 01:08:23,040 Speaker 2: would always tell me stories about how they would be 1265 01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:26,120 Speaker 2: working out in there. And I guess Smitty's son plays golfer. 1266 01:08:26,160 --> 01:08:28,120 Speaker 2: He plays golf for something. But he was always super 1267 01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:30,160 Speaker 2: nice to the golfers and then he would turn into 1268 01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:32,160 Speaker 2: a different person whenever they would be in there when 1269 01:08:32,200 --> 01:08:33,639 Speaker 2: he was working out the football players. 1270 01:08:34,880 --> 01:08:36,600 Speaker 1: Hey, it's like one thing to be at work and 1271 01:08:36,640 --> 01:08:39,439 Speaker 1: then outside of work it's a little different deal. 1272 01:08:39,560 --> 01:08:41,200 Speaker 2: They said he was like the nicest guy to all 1273 01:08:41,280 --> 01:08:44,240 Speaker 2: the golfers, but then turned into a demon against there, 1274 01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:46,240 Speaker 2: you know, when he was working out the football players, 1275 01:08:46,479 --> 01:08:48,439 Speaker 2: which I love. That's what you want your strength coach 1276 01:08:48,520 --> 01:08:48,680 Speaker 2: to do. 1277 01:08:50,640 --> 01:08:54,639 Speaker 1: No, Smitty's a good dude. He's a good dude. Well, 1278 01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:58,120 Speaker 1: Donkey is like donkeys, he's a workout warrior. 1279 01:08:58,280 --> 01:08:59,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's one of those guys that might be able 1280 01:08:59,920 --> 01:09:01,479 Speaker 2: to survive one of those workouts. 1281 01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:05,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I think Schmidy would like Dalky. I mean, 1282 01:09:05,400 --> 01:09:08,040 Speaker 1: like from a very athletic family. A dad was a 1283 01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:12,960 Speaker 1: linebacker football family. So yeah, Dalky would have been okay, 1284 01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:18,200 Speaker 1: he'd have been able to work out. So we will 1285 01:09:18,400 --> 01:09:20,479 Speaker 1: return another segment to go here on the middle of 1286 01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:21,880 Speaker 1: the day show.

We 1291 01:09:32,479 --> 01:09:36,280 Speaker 1: could be snowed in who knows how long. Again, I'm 1292 01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:40,160 Speaker 1: not saying that's my prediction, but I've got a hedge 1293 01:09:40,600 --> 01:09:42,000 Speaker 1: like the ultimate is gonna have to hedge on the 1294 01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:43,519 Speaker 1: super Bowl when the Rams get there. I got a 1295 01:09:43,560 --> 01:09:46,720 Speaker 1: hedge that we get under two inches of snow. We'll 1296 01:09:46,720 --> 01:09:49,439 Speaker 1: see if that works out. Stay tuned, coming up with 1297 01:09:49,600 --> 01:09:53,439 Speaker 1: more next. Stay tuned, all right, Dan from Stroud send 1298 01:09:53,520 --> 01:09:57,280 Speaker 1: us a text that said, I forty four near Stroud 1299 01:09:57,360 --> 01:10:00,599 Speaker 1: completely shut down, A complete crap show. So I, oh, man, 1300 01:10:00,680 --> 01:10:02,519 Speaker 1: I mean the ice must have already started up there, 1301 01:10:02,600 --> 01:10:07,040 Speaker 1: but this was not ice. It was fire. Still things 1302 01:10:07,120 --> 01:10:09,920 Speaker 1: that can plague us out there that aren't freezing. So 1303 01:10:10,160 --> 01:10:12,720 Speaker 1: I guess semi caught on fire has nothing to do 1304 01:10:12,800 --> 01:10:14,479 Speaker 1: with the weather. Fire and nice, at least I think 1305 01:10:14,520 --> 01:10:16,800 Speaker 1: it has nothing to do with the weather. Fire and ice. 1306 01:10:19,280 --> 01:10:22,640 Speaker 1: Is it precipitating anywhere right now? I'm not frond of 1307 01:10:22,640 --> 01:10:23,000 Speaker 1: the telepe. 1308 01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:24,320 Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm not sure. 1309 01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:29,759 Speaker 1: I don't either, Not Norman, nothing happened in here? Cold 1310 01:10:31,439 --> 01:10:32,200 Speaker 1: to be outside? Right? 1311 01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:35,200 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1312 01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:37,960 Speaker 1: Are they showing anything other than just like a map 1313 01:10:38,040 --> 01:10:43,280 Speaker 1: of pink and blue and stuff like that? Why is 1314 01:10:43,360 --> 01:10:45,519 Speaker 1: it that weather maps in the winter have pink and 1315 01:10:45,640 --> 01:10:48,719 Speaker 1: blue and in the spring they have red and green 1316 01:10:48,880 --> 01:10:52,160 Speaker 1: and yellow? All right? 1317 01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:57,000 Speaker 2: Let me zoom out here right now, Let's see here. 1318 01:10:57,160 --> 01:11:01,040 Speaker 2: Let me go to two pm post there right now, 1319 01:11:01,160 --> 01:11:04,280 Speaker 2: the state of Oklahoma is clear. Now it looks like rain. 1320 01:11:04,479 --> 01:11:08,640 Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure rain is green and yellow. Correct is 1321 01:11:08,840 --> 01:11:12,880 Speaker 2: down in Dallas, right, Texas? Yep? Yeah, And that's kind 1322 01:11:12,920 --> 01:11:16,960 Speaker 2: of like going all the way to Midland, Texas and 1323 01:11:17,080 --> 01:11:20,479 Speaker 2: it's coming like up our way, which will turn in. 1324 01:11:22,200 --> 01:11:24,360 Speaker 1: A blizzard. Warning should be white. I get that. I'm 1325 01:11:25,080 --> 01:11:27,040 Speaker 1: if it's I mean, a blizzard is like a white out, 1326 01:11:27,120 --> 01:11:28,840 Speaker 1: so I mean you can color the map with white 1327 01:11:29,040 --> 01:11:31,920 Speaker 1: boxes and stuff like that. That exploding trees warning was 1328 01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:36,800 Speaker 1: somewhat like purple or magenta. Nobody's issued in exploding trees 1329 01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:40,840 Speaker 1: warning for us. It would be pretty scary, but I 1330 01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:50,680 Speaker 1: don't think it's precipitating anywhere too much yet. Here's a 1331 01:11:50,840 --> 01:11:56,439 Speaker 1: really very odd random question coming in. Sam asked Mark 1332 01:11:56,439 --> 01:11:58,000 Speaker 1: how many beers it would take for him to sit 1333 01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:01,360 Speaker 1: at a football game in this weather shirtless, like so 1334 01:12:01,439 --> 01:12:05,720 Speaker 1: many of those fools do that. 1335 01:12:05,880 --> 01:12:06,639 Speaker 2: Not a lot of beers. 1336 01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:10,840 Speaker 1: No, No, it's not enough. I'm not no, not enough. 1337 01:12:12,200 --> 01:12:12,960 Speaker 1: There's no amount. 1338 01:12:14,680 --> 01:12:17,720 Speaker 2: I mean, Mark could put back nine or ten just 1339 01:12:17,960 --> 01:12:19,479 Speaker 2: sitting there with the cat on the couch. 1340 01:12:23,520 --> 01:12:26,960 Speaker 1: It's possible, depends on depends on what kind you're talking about, 1341 01:12:28,120 --> 01:12:31,640 Speaker 1: but yeah, lighter the beer probably the more easier to do. 1342 01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:37,920 Speaker 1: There are a bunch of sporting events that are being chained, altered, 1343 01:12:37,960 --> 01:12:41,320 Speaker 1: postponed in the NBA Washington and Charlotte. I mean, it 1344 01:12:41,439 --> 01:12:44,320 Speaker 1: is crazy how much of the country that this is affecting. 1345 01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:49,080 Speaker 1: I mean, this really must be like an epic, epic 1346 01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:52,559 Speaker 1: storm and the latest, in all seriousness, we've been mocking 1347 01:12:52,600 --> 01:12:54,880 Speaker 1: this a little bit today. More snow, less ice. That's 1348 01:12:54,920 --> 01:12:56,840 Speaker 1: good for everybody. I think, for the most part in 1349 01:12:56,920 --> 01:13:01,759 Speaker 1: Central Oklahoma, the ice is the bad stuff. The snow 1350 01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:03,840 Speaker 1: is the better stuff to deal with. 1351 01:13:05,120 --> 01:13:05,280 Speaker 3: Uh. 1352 01:13:05,760 --> 01:13:07,720 Speaker 1: Was Scissor Hands at the OU women's game last night? 1353 01:13:07,960 --> 01:13:12,880 Speaker 1: He and the dub Let's ask him, Scissor Hands, what's up? 1354 01:13:13,960 --> 01:13:16,680 Speaker 4: Man? If you can't get through on the call a 1355 01:13:16,840 --> 01:13:20,400 Speaker 4: talk line, you call the main line. Baby, let's go, 1356 01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:23,360 Speaker 4: let's go. And and no, no, I didn't. I didn't 1357 01:13:23,400 --> 01:13:25,960 Speaker 4: make it to the game last night because you know, 1358 01:13:26,040 --> 01:13:28,040 Speaker 4: I had an opportunity to go, but me and my 1359 01:13:28,120 --> 01:13:31,719 Speaker 4: wife we had already discussed that we gotta go grocery shopping. 1360 01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:34,240 Speaker 4: So I just left the barbershop. I had to run 1361 01:13:34,320 --> 01:13:37,080 Speaker 4: the sands. We did all the damn grocery shopping, but 1362 01:13:37,200 --> 01:13:39,880 Speaker 4: forgot to get some Rayming noodles. So I ran and 1363 01:13:39,920 --> 01:13:41,519 Speaker 4: grabbed some noodles. You know what I'm saying. I don't 1364 01:13:41,520 --> 01:13:44,680 Speaker 4: care how much money I ever get. I will continue 1365 01:13:44,840 --> 01:13:47,360 Speaker 4: to eat Raming noodles. But uh, I did go to 1366 01:13:47,400 --> 01:13:50,559 Speaker 4: the LSU game, you know what I'm saying. And let 1367 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:55,120 Speaker 4: me tell you them girls are some dogs. Man, excuse me, 1368 01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:57,800 Speaker 4: they are some dogs. And a funny thing about it, Mark, 1369 01:13:58,400 --> 01:13:59,479 Speaker 4: what's the name Flage? 1370 01:14:00,160 --> 01:14:00,320 Speaker 2: You know? 1371 01:14:00,520 --> 01:14:02,760 Speaker 4: Me and her kind of going back and forth real cool. 1372 01:14:03,320 --> 01:14:06,000 Speaker 4: So then she comes running through the tunnel. I'm like 1373 01:14:06,120 --> 01:14:08,800 Speaker 4: trying to cheer our girls on. And then I tell her, 1374 01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:12,120 Speaker 4: I said you the truth and she said I know. 1375 01:14:12,760 --> 01:14:16,000 Speaker 4: And then like after the game was over, Mark, she 1376 01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:18,920 Speaker 4: ran up to me and said, tag me in that video. 1377 01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:22,080 Speaker 4: I said, I got you, baby, So I tagged in 1378 01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:24,200 Speaker 4: the video and she put it on her page. You 1379 01:14:24,240 --> 01:14:26,080 Speaker 4: know what I'm saying, on her stories, and I got 1380 01:14:26,160 --> 01:14:29,000 Speaker 4: a lot more followers and everything, so I ain't e tripping. 1381 01:14:29,080 --> 01:14:33,160 Speaker 4: So I'm great winning for the girls basketball and Mark, 1382 01:14:33,320 --> 01:14:35,519 Speaker 4: like I said, I agree with you about when it 1383 01:14:35,640 --> 01:14:40,240 Speaker 4: comes to the no disrespect to women out there, owe 1384 01:14:40,280 --> 01:14:45,120 Speaker 4: you basketball fans when it comes to the women. But like, 1385 01:14:45,520 --> 01:14:49,080 Speaker 4: I've never known them other than when Sherry Cole had them. 1386 01:14:49,120 --> 01:14:53,000 Speaker 4: Remember was it Courtney Pearish. She was like, if they 1387 01:14:53,040 --> 01:14:56,240 Speaker 4: don't win a championship, she's gonna what she says, She's 1388 01:14:56,320 --> 01:14:59,320 Speaker 4: gonna do something like pay for us. It was something, 1389 01:14:59,479 --> 01:15:03,720 Speaker 4: But I don't know. Like I said, I cheer for him. 1390 01:15:04,600 --> 01:15:07,320 Speaker 4: I want them to do well, but it's just like 1391 01:15:07,800 --> 01:15:09,479 Speaker 4: they are who they are, you know what I'm saying. 1392 01:15:09,560 --> 01:15:11,439 Speaker 4: It was a great win, and you know how it 1393 01:15:11,479 --> 01:15:14,439 Speaker 4: goes into basketball. You know, you some teams, some teams 1394 01:15:14,479 --> 01:15:17,040 Speaker 4: can get you, some teams can't. So I'm glad they 1395 01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:20,080 Speaker 4: got the win. Hopefully they can go farther than what 1396 01:15:20,240 --> 01:15:23,400 Speaker 4: they what they what we expect them to do, you 1397 01:15:23,439 --> 01:15:25,240 Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. But uh, this is what I 1398 01:15:25,320 --> 01:15:27,560 Speaker 4: want to speak to you, buddy. I love you with 1399 01:15:27,640 --> 01:15:31,599 Speaker 4: all my heart. I trust your expertise, your knowledge when 1400 01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:36,680 Speaker 4: it comes to sports. And this is no disrespect to 1401 01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:39,800 Speaker 4: Porter Moosa. I like the guy. I met the guy. 1402 01:15:39,920 --> 01:15:43,200 Speaker 4: He was cool, He's a great guy. But Mark, I 1403 01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:48,519 Speaker 4: told you a long time ago about I felt like 1404 01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:50,479 Speaker 4: he just wasn't going to be able to do it, 1405 01:15:50,520 --> 01:15:52,880 Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. And I hated it because 1406 01:15:53,160 --> 01:15:55,439 Speaker 4: I met the guy and the guy knows me and 1407 01:15:55,520 --> 01:15:57,680 Speaker 4: we're cool like that. But at the end of the day, 1408 01:15:58,240 --> 01:16:00,519 Speaker 4: it ain't all about friendships when it comes the sports, 1409 01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:03,200 Speaker 4: you know, especially being a coach, it's all about women. 1410 01:16:03,479 --> 01:16:06,560 Speaker 4: And it don't make no sense to me to go 1411 01:16:06,720 --> 01:16:10,360 Speaker 4: to an OU basketball game to the men and the women, 1412 01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:14,599 Speaker 4: and the women got more fans than the men. Now 1413 01:16:14,800 --> 01:16:15,599 Speaker 4: that says a lot. 1414 01:16:15,840 --> 01:16:16,280 Speaker 3: I don't know. 1415 01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:19,439 Speaker 4: What's gonna happen. Like I said, I like the guy. 1416 01:16:19,880 --> 01:16:22,280 Speaker 4: He's a cool guy, but he just ain't got that 1417 01:16:22,520 --> 01:16:24,800 Speaker 4: dog in you know. You know how I feel about 1418 01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:28,720 Speaker 4: them dog and my boy, coach Mark Bryant told me 1419 01:16:28,800 --> 01:16:32,760 Speaker 4: a long time ago. He said, if they don't, if 1420 01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:36,120 Speaker 4: they don't bite as a puppy, they'll never bite as 1421 01:16:36,120 --> 01:16:38,280 Speaker 4: a dog. And like I said, we got to get 1422 01:16:38,280 --> 01:16:41,320 Speaker 4: some dogs. We gotta get some some dog dogs. 1423 01:16:41,400 --> 01:16:41,599 Speaker 3: Man. 1424 01:16:41,720 --> 01:16:47,280 Speaker 1: So okay, I got you. There's no question that. There's 1425 01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:51,559 Speaker 1: no question the move is getting made. It's it's beyond repair. 1426 01:16:51,800 --> 01:16:53,320 Speaker 1: I think the season is going to take care of it. 1427 01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:55,320 Speaker 1: Where we're not talking about in March, should they or 1428 01:16:55,360 --> 01:16:58,320 Speaker 1: should they not? So Susan answer, you were right, I 1429 01:16:58,520 --> 01:17:01,200 Speaker 1: was wrong. I like Porter as an individual, he has 1430 01:17:01,320 --> 01:17:03,680 Speaker 1: not proven that he can bring an offense to the 1431 01:17:03,720 --> 01:17:06,200 Speaker 1: floor that can compete in conference basketball. As record and 1432 01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:09,040 Speaker 1: conference playing the Big twelve and the SEC is about 1433 01:17:09,080 --> 01:17:11,519 Speaker 1: twenty five games under five hundred, so it is fair 1434 01:17:11,600 --> 01:17:13,800 Speaker 1: to point out that, uh, twenty seven and fifty one, 1435 01:17:13,880 --> 01:17:16,719 Speaker 1: twenty four games under. You're right, I'm wrong, So props 1436 01:17:16,720 --> 01:17:19,320 Speaker 1: to you on that too. You can't bring up Courtney 1437 01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:23,000 Speaker 1: Paris on the show without having to go back and 1438 01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:24,479 Speaker 1: take a look at one of the great lines you've 1439 01:17:24,520 --> 01:17:28,320 Speaker 1: ever uttered on the radio about the Paris Twins. So 1440 01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:30,160 Speaker 1: I don't know if you remember exactly what that was, 1441 01:17:30,240 --> 01:17:31,760 Speaker 1: but I certainly do on the other end of that. 1442 01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:34,960 Speaker 1: And Flase Johnson, she's got two million, she's got two 1443 01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:37,400 Speaker 1: million inst the followers, holy caw. 1444 01:17:38,760 --> 01:17:40,120 Speaker 5: And have you heard her round? 1445 01:17:41,200 --> 01:17:44,840 Speaker 1: Yeah? I have. And she's attractive, very attractive also, so 1446 01:17:45,080 --> 01:17:48,479 Speaker 1: I can see why she's popular on the instance. So yeah, yeah, 1447 01:17:48,560 --> 01:17:50,479 Speaker 1: so congrats, I'm making that connection. 1448 01:17:51,400 --> 01:17:53,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, But like I said, Mark, you know how I 1449 01:17:53,960 --> 01:17:56,880 Speaker 4: am man.
