Speaker 3: Marv Paul Years Truly, we'll head back to the final
Speaker 3: four coming up here in about fifteen minutes from now.
Speaker 3: By the way, Florida led for just fifty four seconds.
Speaker 3: That is the least amount of time that a winning
Speaker 3: team had to win the national championship, a lead of
Speaker 3: fifty four seconds. But as long as it's the final
Speaker 3: fifty four seconds, that's all that matters. So congratulations to
Speaker 3: the Gators as they win another national championship, and more
Speaker 3: heartbreak for the Houston Cougars. NFL Draft will be there.

Speaker 3: Masters week.
Speaker 2: Boy.
Speaker 3: I love that it's right after March Madness, boom right
Speaker 3: into the Masters. I do have the odds to win
Speaker 3: the Masters with the live golfers because I am excited
Speaker 3: to see John Rahm and Bryson de Shambeau brooks Kopka,
Speaker 3: and John Rahm is the leading candidate from the Live
Speaker 3: Tour to win another Green jacket. Then it's Bryson to Shambeau,
Speaker 3: brooks Kopka, Joaquin Neeman. Let me see where Phil Mickelson is.
Speaker 3: Rom is plus thirteen hundred. Phil Micholson is plus eleven thousand.
Speaker 3: But I do love watching Phil at Augusta because he
Speaker 3: plays it differently, not afraid to take chances there. But
Speaker 3: Patrick Reid and Sergio Garcia, Cameron Smith. There was a
Speaker 3: time when Cameron Smith was a He was a moment
Speaker 3: it was like, Wow, that guy is maybe the best
Speaker 3: putter in the world. Then he took the money and disappeared.
Speaker 3: But they're back on the big stage, to the main stage,
Speaker 3: and they'll be at Augusta. Whether at least the preliminary
Speaker 3: outlook is pretty good. Age seven to seven to three.
Speaker 3: DP Show email address Dpatdanpatrick dot com, Twitter handle DP Show.
Speaker 2: Good morning.
Speaker 3: If you're watching on Peacock, thank you for downloading the app.
Speaker 3: We'll get phone calls coming up and poll question Seaton
Speaker 3: for hour two is going to be what.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we got two of them up there right now.
Speaker 4: One of them has been called the most difficult question
Speaker 4: we've ever asked on this show.
Speaker 2: Well, who came up with the question? Passed? Oh so,
Speaker 2: Pauli's this is the's on fire today. This is the
Speaker 2: toughest question, most difficult question we've ever asked.
Speaker 4: Yes, it's based on conversations and topics we've been discussing
Speaker 4: here on the show. Okay, Paul melded them into one
Speaker 4: melody impossible.
Speaker 2: Question to make melded.
Speaker 4: Okay, let me start with the easy one worst way
Speaker 4: to end a game, not getting a shot off, call
Speaker 4: third strike or quarterback sack. Right now, this might be
Speaker 4: recency biased, but forty nine percent of not getting a
Speaker 4: shot off Yeah, followed closely by called third strike. You
Speaker 4: can't take a called third You just can't.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 3: I mean that one's horrible and this has happened though
Speaker 3: it's happened a couple of times recently, called third Yeah, Paul.
Speaker 5: You're gonna like this because you like umpires. Hey, there
Speaker 5: is nothing that gives an umpire a bigger stage than
Speaker 5: a called third strike to end a playoff game, they
Speaker 5: get to go the full rip.
Speaker 3: It didn't Babe Ruth take a called third to end
Speaker 3: the world series? Or did he swing and miss in
Speaker 3: a world series? I'm getting off topic here, I think.
Speaker 3: But okay, what is the toughest question that we've ever
Speaker 3: asked on this program?
Speaker 4: Which are you better at golf or dancing?
Speaker 6: Todd, I'm no Patrick Swayze or John Travolta, but you've
Speaker 6: all seen me on the golf course.
Speaker 7: I'm thinking I'm a better dancer than golfer.
Speaker 2: All right, Seaton?
Speaker 8: Oh man, Uh, I mean it's I'm a horrible I'm
Speaker 8: horrible at golf, terrible, and I'm infinitely better at that
Speaker 8: than I am a dancer.
Speaker 2: So I get I think I have to say, Golf,
Speaker 2: you're the reluctant dancer who you like?
Speaker 4: You reluctant in that I have hoped to never ever
Speaker 4: do it. I'm even like watching other people dance. I
Speaker 4: just never want to even Yeah, And I'm so envious
Speaker 4: of people that can actually dance, like people that dance
Speaker 4: really well.
Speaker 2: God, how did you do that? Marvin Golf dancing?
Speaker 9: Terrible golfer, so better at dancing.
Speaker 5: Okay, Paul, golf is not good, can't hit it deep
Speaker 5: dancing I can compete. I can go out and not
Speaker 5: embarrass myself. Dancing, I got to do some like musicals
Speaker 5: and plays with just enough I would embarrass myself. Golf,
Speaker 5: I would embarrass myself.
Speaker 2: I'm okay at golf.
Speaker 3: I think it depends on how much I've had to
Speaker 3: drink as far as dancing, But yeah, I would say golf, Yeah, Marvin.
Speaker 10: During weddings, what do you guys like to do? Are
Speaker 10: you guys forced to come out there? Somebody you know
Speaker 10: gives you the finger point, come on out here.
Speaker 4: That's oka the worst thing you can possibly do to
Speaker 4: a human being.
Speaker 3: Yes, but that's why I always sit with my back
Speaker 3: to the dance floor, because then I can't get you know,
Speaker 3: Aunt Gertie going come.
Speaker 2: Here, and you're going no, no, no. I wanted to
Speaker 2: be out there.
Speaker 4: I would be there's a reason I'm sitting here ignoring everybody.
Speaker 2: But I like it when there's a whole group.
Speaker 3: Therefore, your movements are nobody sees them, and you could
Speaker 3: kind of just stay in your little vacuum there, go
Speaker 3: to the middle of the crowd and no, no, no,
Speaker 3: because then they're always there's the circle, and then there's
Speaker 3: gonna be like and then they somebody jumps in the
Speaker 3: middle and dances, and then somebody comes out and then
Speaker 3: you're like somebody pushes you and you're like no, no, no,
Speaker 3: we're not doing that worse no or not no, yes Tom.
Speaker 7: But even with your back to.
Speaker 6: The dance world, there's always that aggressive aunt or cousin
Speaker 6: what's going to come up to you and tap you
Speaker 6: and pull you in anyway. There's no way to hide
Speaker 6: unless you go in another room or hide in the
Speaker 6: bathroom for the whole thing's over.
Speaker 3: Like your sister wanting to dance with me at the
Speaker 3: bar Mitzvah and I'm like no, no, no, giving me
Speaker 3: the come here, and like no.
Speaker 7: I just got to give in. It's just one dance.
Speaker 7: There's a couple of minutes of your.
Speaker 3: Time, no it Now, if your mom had asked me
Speaker 3: to dance at the bar Mitzvah, I would have. I
Speaker 3: would have done that because your mom's adorable and I
Speaker 3: can't say no to her, no matter what she asked,
Speaker 3: I can't say no to her.
Speaker 7: One thing I'd like to say is she'd give you
Speaker 7: the show up her back. Thank you. She's never done
Speaker 7: that in public care.
Speaker 5: Yes, I think the toughest situation at weddings when you're
Speaker 5: dancing with your wife or girlfriend during a slow song
Speaker 5: and then they transition quickly like cool in the gang
Speaker 5: celebration and you have to get off the floor fast.
Speaker 2: Yes, you gotta make that move.
Speaker 5: And go to the brights the bar.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like and then you're like, damn it. And
Speaker 2: then you got to kind of you you dance off
Speaker 2: the stage.
Speaker 3: Yes, and you're like okay, yeah, man, yes, Marvel.
Speaker 9: This is the song when they introduce the wedding party.
Speaker 10: Oh give it her for the parents of the bride.
Speaker 9: Dad has no interest in dancing at all.
Speaker 2: Oh, I know.
Speaker 3: Although wedding parties when they're introduced and then they'll be
Speaker 3: you know, the bride, bride'smaid and the groomsman.
Speaker 2: And then we're gonna, hey, you know what we're gonna do.
Speaker 3: We're gonna go We're gonna do this were like synchronized,
Speaker 3: and then you're like, okay, hey, we're gonna have our
Speaker 3: own dance.
Speaker 2: Nah, that's not good either, not good. Yeah, play the
Speaker 2: music there.
Speaker 3: And please welcome the parents of the bride, Sally and
Speaker 3: Jimmy Lepper.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, Todd.
Speaker 6: The best part is when they say, we invite you
Speaker 6: to take your seats, dinner is served, and you can
Speaker 6: just get off the dance floor and not to feel
Speaker 6: bad about it.
Speaker 7: Everyone's got to stop dancing and they're bringing up the salad.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Tod.
Speaker 6: As long as that DJ, we all invite you to
Speaker 6: take your seats as they're bringing.
Speaker 7: Out the third course.
Speaker 9: Oh yeah, he sat down for some ZD.
Speaker 11: You.
Speaker 3: Well, you did give us one dining moment last hour,
Speaker 3: so I think it's appropriate you speaking food here.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 3: Let me see a couple of phone calls in here.
Speaker 3: Kevin in Texas, I, Kevin, what do you have for me?
Speaker 2: Leading off.
Speaker 12: There comes to ZD that that's an incredible line, Toddler.
Speaker 12: I was gonna skew negative because that's, you know, an
Speaker 12: honor of Paul PABs. I really can't stand them playing
Speaker 12: in these basketball stadiums. It feels like they can't shoot
Speaker 12: for the first half of the game. But anyways, most importantly,
Speaker 12: I would like to hear all five of you decide
Speaker 12: which is better one shining moment or let's get quizzical.
Speaker 2: One dining moment or let's get quizzical both. From todd.
Speaker 3: I'm going to say let's get quizzical, because it was
Speaker 3: right after Olivia Newton John died and Todd thought that
Speaker 3: he was paying tribute to her, and it was.
Speaker 7: Painful honor or the life and times of one of them.
Speaker 2: John, Yes, it was painful, yes, Paul.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was meant as a serious tribute to a
Speaker 5: great actress that he admired. And he was not making
Speaker 5: a joke in any way.
Speaker 3: Or a great musician or a great artist. Olivia Newton
Speaker 3: John not a great actress. Oh no, she's great. She
Speaker 3: was known for a music. I had a couple of
Speaker 3: moments there Greece.
Speaker 7: Absolutely, I thought she was gonna win something for Xanader
Speaker 7: crush in.
Speaker 3: You know, I did go see Zana do by myself.
Speaker 3: Kind of painful coming out of that where you know
Speaker 3: you got couples.
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 6: Look it makes good sports radio conversation.
Speaker 1: You gotta answer Rich just right, you.
Speaker 2: Know what I mean, don't google.
Speaker 6: Let's just try to think it out, telling yourself mentally,
Speaker 6: make sure you know what you're talking about, or get
Speaker 6: embarrassed on.
Speaker 13: Let's get quizical.
Speaker 2: Quizical.
Speaker 3: I wanted the quisite, Jim, so nobody asked for that,
Speaker 3: and Todd Todd thought that that was a tribute to Olivia. Yes, yes,
Speaker 3: a couple of phone calls in here, uh, Jim, and I.
Speaker 7: Was very proud of that.
Speaker 6: By the way, I thought I was gonna get discovered
Speaker 6: by America's got out. I was gonna start getting emails
Speaker 6: and calls, and that didn't happen.
Speaker 3: That's what surprised me more than anything. That you thought
Speaker 3: it was good.
Speaker 7: I thought it was to be discovered. After that, I.
Speaker 3: Thought that it was creative. But your timing is off.
Speaker 3: It's not a tribute to her.
Speaker 7: Hard to get that pitch of the Olivia hut and John,
Speaker 7: it's hard to get tick the high notes like that.
Speaker 3: You mean to be on key, to be on key,
Speaker 3: that's another way. Yeah, Jim in Michigan, Hi Jim, what's
Speaker 3: on your mind?
Speaker 11: A couple of comments for you, Dan, you talked about
Speaker 11: the live tour. Maybe I'm the only one that gets
Speaker 11: frustrated when I surf on TV and I see the graphics,
Speaker 11: the score of the scoring, I can't read what the
Speaker 11: hell they're promoting.
Speaker 3: There's a lot going on there, Jim. There's a whole lot.
Speaker 3: I was watching this weekend. I'm like, God, Lee, there's
Speaker 3: like five things here.
Speaker 11: And the other comment. I did go to the Masters
Speaker 11: in twenty fifteen, won the right to buy tickets, brought
Speaker 11: my lovely wife, who was not enamor with golf, and
Speaker 11: she had an absolute ball, as did I. As you commented,
Speaker 11: the food was cheap. She got blisters on her feet
Speaker 11: from walking the course twice, and they at a first
Speaker 11: aage station. They took care of her. The greatest experience
Speaker 11: of my life, and I doubt if landing my lap again,
Speaker 11: but it was just a wonderful time.
Speaker 2: All right, Well, thank you, Jim.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I encourage people if you get the opportunity. It
Speaker 3: does live up to the hype. When you go to
Speaker 3: Amen Corner and you walk on the grass, it's far
Speaker 3: hillier than what you think. And you go to twelve thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, and.
Speaker 2: Then even eighteen.
Speaker 3: I mean that is a climb up eighteen and that
Speaker 3: little narrow shoot when you come out of that tea box.
Speaker 3: And when I played, we played it all the way
Speaker 3: back as far back as you could play, and it
Speaker 3: felt like the trees were growing as I'm getting ready
Speaker 3: to tee up my ball, like the leaves and the
Speaker 3: branches are getting tighter. And tighter and tighter, and you're
Speaker 3: just trying to get it through that shoot. But you
Speaker 3: watch and that's why it's even more remarkable those greens.
Speaker 3: No green is flat there, undulating, as they like to say.
Speaker 3: But if you get a chance, go Andrew in Oklahoma.
Speaker 3: We'll try it again.
Speaker 14: Hi Andrew, Hey, guys, love the show, first time, technical,
Speaker 14: second time, love the show. I'm definitely a better golfer
Speaker 14: than an answer, and I'm looking for the out for
Speaker 14: the dinner to come out.
Speaker 13: But there is enough called today.
Speaker 14: Let's just find out, you know when and how do
Speaker 14: we solve slow play on the PGA tour because watching
Speaker 14: Brian Harmon and PC play are just absolutely brutal. Anyways,
Speaker 14: eyeing up and take the answer off the show.
Speaker 3: Well, remember Sergio Sergio grip regrip, grip regrip, but baseball
Speaker 3: had this, guys were taken forever, no more. He's the
Speaker 3: poster Chanlen for just get in the box. I gotta
Speaker 3: do this. And you know, I wonder if somebody's gonna
Speaker 3: have a note from their doctor where they bring it
Speaker 3: to the game and show the umpire to say, hey,
Speaker 3: I have this O C D this tick that I
Speaker 3: I mean. But Sergio it was forever and Brian Harmon
Speaker 3: like he's gonna grip it and then look and grip look, look, look,
Speaker 3: there's a couple of guys that just Usually you get
Speaker 3: guys who are from Ireland for some reason, because they
Speaker 3: just know you're going out there to play.
Speaker 2: Let's get the round done. You grow up playing that way.
Speaker 3: A lot of these golf courses in Ireland Scotland don't
Speaker 3: have driving ranges, like you go, you go to play
Speaker 3: and then that's it. You know, a lot of them
Speaker 3: don't have condos or anything around it. It's you're going
Speaker 3: to the golf course and then maybe you have a
Speaker 3: pint and then you go home.
Speaker 2: That's it. You know.
Speaker 3: Now they have amenities really that for Americans it feels like,
Speaker 3: but when you're over there, there's places where you go,
Speaker 3: can I hit some balls? They're like on the course
Speaker 3: and I'll be like, oh okay, you go there ready
Speaker 3: to play. And I love when you see some of
Speaker 3: these golfers. It's just like Shane Lowry, here you go,
Speaker 3: put the vault. I'm going. John Daly's as fast as
Speaker 3: anybody I ever played with. John doesn't wait for you.
Speaker 3: He's swinging you're lining up your shot and John go,
Speaker 3: I'll hit mine. He's not waiting at all. That's fun
Speaker 3: to be around and that's the way golf should be played.
Speaker 3: Take your time. I understand that. But after a while,
Speaker 3: are we just trying to get your logo on TV
Speaker 3: or something airtime? We'll take a break. Steve Lapis, the
Speaker 3: former coach, done a great job with CBS. We'll talk
Speaker 3: to him about that final play, what he thought was
Speaker 3: being drawn up, and did Florida know exactly what was
Speaker 3: going to be called? And we'll talk to him about
Speaker 3: some of the other items going on with college basketball.
Speaker 3: We'll take a break. We're back after this Dan Patrick show.

Speaker 3: Mark Cuban, who's been elusive, We've tried to get him on.
Speaker 3: Mark doesn't want to talk about this. Trade doesn't mean
Speaker 3: we still don't want to have Mark Cuban on. Mark
Speaker 3: will be honest. Mark knows he'll be honest. That's why
Speaker 3: I think. He was on Steven A. Smith's podcast and
Speaker 3: he said, you have to ask for Austin Reeves. You
Speaker 3: have to with Anthony Davis. You know, it's criminal that
Speaker 3: you didn't ask for Austin Reeves in that trade. And
Speaker 3: he's right, because imagine if you have him. He's a
Speaker 3: good player. He's one of those you watched him and
Speaker 3: you go, okay, I mean he wasn't drafted and where's
Speaker 3: he out of Oklahoma State or Oklahoma, but you watched him.
Speaker 3: I remember watching him in college him he was like
Speaker 3: all right, he had a little you know, twitch to
Speaker 3: his game and you know, seemed quicker, good shooter.
Speaker 2: But it's like Klay Thompson.
Speaker 3: I watched Klay Thompson play just because of Michael Thompson, his.
Speaker 2: Dad, and I'm like, oh, hey, he can shoot. Man.
Speaker 2: Good for him.
Speaker 3: All of a sudden, you're watching one of the greatest
Speaker 3: shooters in NBA history.
Speaker 2: What do I know?
Speaker 5: Yes, Paul, Yeah, Reeves was two years at Wichitas State,
Speaker 5: two years at Oklahoma.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I remember Wichita State. Steve Lapis, CBS Sports college
Speaker 3: basketball color commentator. He was on site for the national
Speaker 3: title game in San Antonio last night, he joined us
Speaker 3: on the program Good to see again, Coach, let me
Speaker 3: start at the end of the game and then maybe
Speaker 3: work our way back the play that was called and
Speaker 3: Florida knowing what that play was going to be, did
Speaker 3: that kind of was that the collision that we had?
Speaker 17: Yeah, and that also and really Houston's execution on the play.
Speaker 17: I just watched it again for the third time. They
Speaker 17: didn't screen anybody on that play. It was just and normally,
Speaker 17: let's face it, Kevin Sampson's tremendous coach. They execute very well.
Speaker 17: But on that last play, they didn't execute anything. And
Speaker 17: that's why, you know, Florida was able to come out
Speaker 17: and get to manual sharp. But if he shot fakes there,
Speaker 17: there's a good chance Clayton runs by him and he
Speaker 17: gets a shot off. Instead, he tried to shoot it
Speaker 17: right away. You know, kid makes a mistake in that situation.
Speaker 13: It happens. But you know, the big thing, Dan was
Speaker 13: they had five.
Speaker 17: Turnovers in the first thirty eight minutes and forty seconds
Speaker 17: of that game, and the last one twenty they had
Speaker 17: four turnovers.
Speaker 13: So the execution in the last two minutes was.
Speaker 3: Back as a former coach and I brought this up
Speaker 3: and maybe I'm thinking that this is what happens. But
Speaker 3: if I'm going to face you and it's a big game,
Speaker 3: I have to know what do you do? What's your
Speaker 3: go to play with a game on the line, Like
Speaker 3: I have to figure out what do you love to do?
Speaker 3: And every team has a play that they love to
Speaker 3: go to, And I'm wondering did Houston have a stock
Speaker 3: play that they loved to go to and Florida did
Speaker 3: their research scouting and knew what it was going to be.
Speaker 17: I think Houston has a couple. You know, they maan
Speaker 17: that one for a manual sharp. They have a couple
Speaker 17: for LJ.
Speaker 13: Cryer.
Speaker 17: Those are the guys that he considers they're two closers.
Speaker 17: They also have a play where they can go inside
Speaker 17: to Juwan Roberts. So again I think on that last
Speaker 17: play because you know the other thing about this day
Speaker 17: and it's a one day prep, so there's only so
Speaker 17: much you can give those kids in one day to
Speaker 17: get ready for that game. I think that was Obviously
Speaker 17: Florida did a great job. I would say it was
Speaker 17: more a lack of execution on Houston's part than a
Speaker 17: great defense on Florida's part. Obviously they played good defense
Speaker 17: on it, but I think Houston really just messed it up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a great point.
Speaker 3: I also brought up this was during the regular season,
Speaker 3: maybe it was the SEC tournament, and I said that
Speaker 3: if you win the SEC, it's like winning the national championship.
Speaker 3: And Florida was ready for this because and Duke wasn't.
Speaker 3: But I think that's because of the conference that you
Speaker 3: play in that every single night, Florida knew that they
Speaker 3: were in for a battle. Four of those games that
Speaker 3: they won in the tournament, they trailed by at least
Speaker 3: six points in the second half.
Speaker 2: Duke wasn't in that.
Speaker 3: And maybe this is a leap that I'm making, but
Speaker 3: it did feel like the battle tested team in a
Speaker 3: great conference, and that was the difference for Florida.
Speaker 13: That's not a leap at all, Dan, You're one hundred
Speaker 13: percent right.
Speaker 17: I mean, Duke's average margin of victory this year was
Speaker 17: twenty one points a game. They were in very few
Speaker 17: close games that came down to the wire. These kids,
Speaker 17: they were a young team. Now glanded the two freshmen
Speaker 17: Knippule and Flag. They played well, but in the last
Speaker 17: couple of minutes they didn't have the same legs as
Speaker 17: they had throughout the game, coming up against a team
Speaker 17: that's so tough and so physical like Houston was.
Speaker 13: So I couldn't agree with you more.
Speaker 17: Them not being in the pressure cooker of the league
Speaker 17: that the other at the Big twelve.
Speaker 13: And the SEC were definitely made a difference to Duke
Speaker 13: in that game. Without question.
Speaker 3: We had Geno Oriema on yesterday, we had Dan Hurley
Speaker 3: on yesterday. Now they're both facing the transfer portal in
Speaker 3: different ways because Gino doesn't really have to worry about this,
Speaker 3: whereas Dan Hurley goes this is crazy. But then Gino said,
Speaker 3: imagine if you had free agency during Super Bowl week.
Speaker 3: You know that that's what you have with the free
Speaker 3: agency in college basketball. What would be your remedy for
Speaker 3: this moving forward?
Speaker 2: You know, first of.
Speaker 17: All, you got it at least started after the tournament,
Speaker 17: because you know, you have it started two weeks ago.
Speaker 17: You know, the transfer portal was opened, so to have
Speaker 17: it opened with some people are still playing is ridiculous.
Speaker 17: And you know, I don't know long term of where
Speaker 17: we're going with this, whether you know, kids have to
Speaker 17: be committed for two years, whether there's going to be
Speaker 17: some kind of a salary caps This is like nuts,
Speaker 17: you know, as you know in pro leagues, there's excuse me,
Speaker 17: salary cap, a contracts. Here is free agency every year.
Speaker 17: I'm glad I'm not in it right now. To be
Speaker 17: honest with you, and you know, to be faced with
Speaker 17: this as a coach, to be worried about whether the
Speaker 17: guys you have are coming back, you know, that would
Speaker 17: have to drive you nuts.
Speaker 13: So I'm you know, something's got to give. This is
Speaker 13: not sustainable.
Speaker 3: I don't think Geno Oriama also brought up He says, yes,
Speaker 3: I have twelve national titles, but if I was coaching
Speaker 3: in the men's you know, or we had to abide
Speaker 3: by the men's rules. You know, Diana Trossi's won and done,
Speaker 3: Branda Stewart would be one and done.
Speaker 2: Maya Moore would be one and done.
Speaker 3: So if you were going to look at the model
Speaker 3: that women's basketball has and you put that with the men,
Speaker 3: you know, John Wooden had all those players who stayed
Speaker 3: coach k for a long period of time, had guys
Speaker 3: who stayed who do you think could have benefited the
Speaker 3: most with the talent they had if they had to
Speaker 3: stay or everybody was staying at least three years, maybe
Speaker 3: four years.
Speaker 13: Probably John Calipari Kentucky.
Speaker 17: I mean, who recruited better freshmen that were NBA players
Speaker 17: than him?
Speaker 13: If he had those guys. If you think about the.
Speaker 17: Team that won it in two thousand and twelve or fourteen,
Speaker 17: I forget that team was, you know they if those
Speaker 17: guys come back, He's probably gonna win two or three
Speaker 17: more with those guys. So I think that, and that's
Speaker 17: one of the great somebody I'm good friends with Ginos.
Speaker 17: If somebody asked me, is Gino going to retire? I said,
Speaker 17: why should he retire? He's got the best job in
Speaker 17: the world. He gets the best class and he knows.
Speaker 13: They're going to be there for four years.
Speaker 17: Like you know, that's why you feel for John Shire.
Speaker 17: I'm not saying he's not gonna get a great class
Speaker 17: next year.
Speaker 13: He already has. But he had this generational talent. He's
Speaker 13: up six points with thirty seconds to go and didn't
Speaker 13: didn't win it. That's and I and I have some
Speaker 13: games and I'm taking to my grave. That's one that
Speaker 13: John Shire is gonna take to his.
Speaker 2: We always go who won it? Did some win it?
Speaker 3: Es somebody lose it like in that situation, And I
Speaker 3: know you're in the coaching fraternity there, But Duke collapsed.
Speaker 2: Duke lost that game.
Speaker 3: Houston took advantage, But I can only take advantage if
Speaker 3: you allow me to take advantage.
Speaker 13: No question, Dan, I mean, that's how you have to
Speaker 13: look at. First of all, they couldn't get the ball
Speaker 13: in balance.
Speaker 17: They had the same guys, one guy I forget who
Speaker 17: was taking it out, Sion James was taking it out
Speaker 17: and he was having trouble getting it in. They called
Speaker 17: t him out. He's still the guy who's gonna get
Speaker 17: it in bounds. They changed their formation. They put a
Speaker 17: formation where they had four guys within like fifteen feet
Speaker 17: of each other with four defenders.
Speaker 13: Yeah, I think that they They definitely gave it away.
Speaker 17: Yes, Shuston took advantage. Houston made the plays, they got
Speaker 17: the offensive rebound dunk. Yes, yes, But Duke definitely and
Speaker 17: John Shire knows that, and that's why it's gonna eat
Speaker 17: him up, just like it's gonna eat up Kelvin Samson.
Speaker 13: That on those last two.
Speaker 17: Possessions, they don't get a shot. You know, if you,
Speaker 17: all right, we get a shot, we miss, we run
Speaker 17: something good, we get and we miss, we miss. Okay, fine,
Speaker 17: But to not get a shot, that's the thing that
Speaker 17: each shot.
Speaker 2: What's the worst way to lose? I mean, the worst.
Speaker 17: Way to lose is is That's why I felt bad
Speaker 17: for both Kelvin Sampson and John Shire. Those are two
Speaker 17: really bad ways to lose because you felt like it
Speaker 17: was on you. You had this game one both those teams.
Speaker 17: It's one of you know, I had games in my
Speaker 17: career where were the game ended? I said how did
Speaker 17: we lose that? And I also that games where I
Speaker 17: said how did we win that?
Speaker 8: You know?
Speaker 13: So, I mean it.
Speaker 17: Does work both ways, and you look, I think both
Speaker 17: those games, Kelvin Sanson has to.
Speaker 13: Say how did we lose? And Shohn Shire has to
Speaker 13: say how did we lose?
Speaker 17: So when you don't execute, don't get a chance, and
Speaker 17: you give things away, you don't get beat. Like you said, dude,
Speaker 17: they gave it away. They didn't get beat. They got beat,
Speaker 17: but they gave it away. They gave the opportunity. It
Speaker 17: wasn't back and forth. They made one more shot than us,
Speaker 17: we lost.
Speaker 13: That's it.
Speaker 3: Okay, But if you're Houston you don't get a shot off,
Speaker 3: or you're Houston and you don't box out Lorenzo Charles
Speaker 3: against NC State, which which way is more painful for
Speaker 3: you if you're coaching.
Speaker 13: I think it's more.
Speaker 17: I think in the Lorenzo Charles thing was a little
Speaker 17: bit of luck because it's an airball, and it's not
Speaker 17: the easiest thing to box out on an air ball.
Speaker 17: Don't get me wrong, it should have been. There should
Speaker 17: have been a body on him, But that was like
Speaker 17: a fluke. That's one there that you say it couldn't
Speaker 17: hit the rim. If the shot hit the rim, that
Speaker 17: doesn't happen, So you know, you say things like that.
Speaker 13: I think it's worse when you just give it away
Speaker 13: like these guys did.
Speaker 2: Playing in a dome.
Speaker 3: I remember the first time I shot hoops and a
Speaker 3: dome and man was in an optical illusion like it
Speaker 3: took a while with the depth perception there, and I
Speaker 3: know that that's here to stay because the NCAA wants
Speaker 3: to get sixty seventy thousand in there to make money.
Speaker 3: But that adjustment period does that still go on for
Speaker 3: these you know, major university players.
Speaker 17: You know it's not as talked about as much now
Speaker 17: that we've been playing domes for so long, but certainly
Speaker 17: when it first started, whatever it was twelve thirteen years ago,
Speaker 17: it was a factor and it gets talked about a
Speaker 17: little bit.
Speaker 13: I know, we talked about it with Kelvin's ants.
Speaker 17: We were at the Indianapolis Regional with him, and you know,
Speaker 17: he just felt like, we got to get these guys
Speaker 17: in here.
Speaker 13: They're gonna shoot as many as they can.
Speaker 17: But both teams are in the same situation, so you
Speaker 17: try not to talk about it.
Speaker 3: Great to talk to your coach, and we look forward
Speaker 3: to next year so we can have you back on
Speaker 3: to talk college basketball.
Speaker 13: I love being on with you, Dan, Thank you very much.
Speaker 3: That's Steve Lapis. He coached at Manhattan and Villanova and
Speaker 3: UMass and works for CBS during the tournament. A couple
Speaker 3: of phone calls in here. Yeah, you don't realize it
Speaker 3: because if you shoot hoops and you have a background
Speaker 3: and you're fine with it, you're accustomed to that. You
Speaker 3: get into these, you know, dome stadiums where you know
Speaker 3: the basketball floor is out here and then the stands
Speaker 3: are a little bit of ways, and it'll mess with
Speaker 3: you a little bit because shooters, depending on you know
Speaker 3: what your target is. You know, some look at the
Speaker 3: back of the back of the rim, some look at
Speaker 3: the front of the rims. I never looked at anything.
Speaker 3: I just looked at the rim as a whole. But
Speaker 3: guys will h hey, I'm shooting to that spot right there.
Speaker 3: But I never thought of it that way. But some
Speaker 3: guys if you do that and then all of a
Speaker 3: sudden your eyes see something behind you, and it can
Speaker 3: mess with Now, there was some bad shooting last night.
Speaker 2: I think.
Speaker 3: Let me see the teams combined to miss thirty seven
Speaker 3: three point attempts. I can give credit quotation marks to
Speaker 3: good defense, but not everybody's supposed to shoot threes. I
Speaker 3: do think Houston did a wonderful job on Clayton. I
Speaker 3: do they did a wonderful job, and that because he'll
Speaker 3: shoot a contested sean. He's not afraid, and a lot
Speaker 3: of guys don't want to hand in their face. They
Speaker 3: don't you know there, you just don't shoot. They don't
Speaker 3: like shooting that way. Other guys are fine with it.
Speaker 3: They don't see it because that's I always marvel when
Speaker 3: I watch Steph because guys are flying at him and they're,
Speaker 3: you know, trying to get a hand there.
Speaker 2: They do anything to kind of throw him off. But
Speaker 2: when you.
Speaker 3: See through the clutter or the clutter doesn't bother you, boy,
Speaker 3: that's when you're a killer. And obviously he is. Uh
Speaker 3: Sean in Indianapolis, Hi Sean, welcome back.
Speaker 2: What do you have for me?
Speaker 7: Ay Dan?
Speaker 18: A couple of things. One, I don't know if there
Speaker 18: was a combination of the dome, but the shot selection
Speaker 18: was just bad and they I mean they weren't even
Speaker 18: hitting rim. But the other thing I was gonna ask you, guys,
Speaker 18: what is more entertaining? Is it a great win at
Speaker 18: the end or is it just a brutal loss, like
Speaker 18: a freight train is coming and it's just a brutal loss.
Speaker 18: What's more entertaining for you guys and for us as
Speaker 18: people watching?
Speaker 3: Well, I'm looking for talking points. What's the content here?
Speaker 3: If Florida one by fourteen, I don't care. I mean,
Speaker 3: they won great, but the fact that it came down
Speaker 3: to this, you know, North Carolina against Michigan and the
Speaker 3: timeout with Chris Weber that added content. Georgetown North Carolina
Speaker 3: and Freddie Brown throwing the ball to James Worthy that's content.
Speaker 3: But then they are national. You know, a Villanova with
Speaker 3: Chris Jenkins with the shot at the buzzer to win
Speaker 3: in a play that they had run earlier in the year.
Speaker 2: That's content. That's what I love.
Speaker 3: Hey, if it's a tough loss, that's still content, but
Speaker 3: a blowout, you know the beauty of it, that's not content.
Speaker 2: Take a break. More phone calls coming up.
Speaker 1: Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Speaker 1: Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 3: I have a lot of great things in the man Cave,
Speaker 3: and I've collected these probably over thirty five forty years,
Speaker 3: and some of these things don't mean anything to anybody
Speaker 3: other than me. But I do appreciate when somebody realizes
Speaker 3: that maybe there's something in the man Cave that I
Speaker 3: need and that I don't have so I wanted. I
Speaker 3: like when I get one of one. I have Ryan
Speaker 3: Leaf's jersey from the draft if the Colts had drafted
Speaker 3: him instead of the Chargers. It's a one of one.
Speaker 3: I have Eddie Curry's Dallas Maverick jersey. It's the longest
Speaker 3: jersey I've ever seen. Well, I just got something and
Speaker 3: sent to me by a gentleman named Gary Smith, who
Speaker 3: used to be the equipment manager for the Philadelphia Flyers,
Speaker 3: and he was in the Spectrum and the seventy six
Speaker 3: Ers shared the same arena, and he got me the following.
Speaker 3: If you're watching on Peacock, if you're just listening, these
Speaker 3: are the longest warm up pants ever made. They're Minute
Speaker 3: Bowls warm up pants from the Philadelphia seventy six Ers.
Speaker 3: I don't even know the size of these.
Speaker 2: I guess they're custom. I don't think you can buy
Speaker 2: them off the rack.
Speaker 3: But minutes like seven to seven and these these warm
Speaker 3: up pants come all the way up to my shoulders.
Speaker 2: So Gary, thank you.
Speaker 3: I don't know how I'm going to display thee but
Speaker 3: it's a it's a great day for the man Cave.
Speaker 3: Let me just put it that way. This is a
Speaker 3: wonderful item. This is one of one and we will uh.
Speaker 2: Go Lee, you folded them Forlida.
Speaker 3: I did, I did, and I did see. I went
Speaker 3: to Patrick Ewing's first NBA game, a preseason game, and
Speaker 3: he played against Minut Bowl. When Minute Bowl came out
Speaker 3: of the locker room. If you said there's a guy
Speaker 3: on stilts in there. I would have believed you it
Speaker 3: was one of those oh my god, he is so tall.
Speaker 3: When we saw Taco Falls, when we saw Houston play
Speaker 3: what Central Florida and he came out on the floor
Speaker 3: and I'm going, oh my god. And minute was one
Speaker 3: of those guys that you just saw and you go,
Speaker 3: how do they make people that big? You know, Florida's
Speaker 3: got that seven to nine kid who was cutting down
Speaker 3: the nets last night and he didn't even use the latter,
Speaker 3: but that's awesome. Well, well, somehow find a way to
Speaker 3: display those in the man cave. Love getting them.
Speaker 5: Yes, when you teased it, you said something from the sixers.
Speaker 5: I was like, oh, maybe it's a doctor j autograph,
Speaker 5: which is people can get that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't care about that.
Speaker 5: You can get that if you pursue that.
Speaker 2: I love Doc. But Minuke Bull's warm up pants right
Speaker 2: my own.
Speaker 5: It's funny just saying it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if I go home.
Speaker 3: Today and I say to my wife, hey, I got
Speaker 3: something in the mail, it's awesome. Well what was that?
Speaker 3: I'll go Minu Bulls warm up pants? Who's manut Boon?
Speaker 3: Why do you have his warm up pants? What's he
Speaker 3: warming up for and they're the the tear away like
Speaker 3: you have the snap. So I always want of those
Speaker 3: where you get ready to go into the game and
Speaker 3: like boom. I would still love to have them in
Speaker 3: real life where you have those on getting ready to
Speaker 3: go to bed? Should we wait?
Speaker 4: Work on tear away pajama? If you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Wow?
Speaker 3: Wow, alrighty. I mentioned Julio Jones retired, and when I
Speaker 3: saw that he retired, I was like, golly, I'm where's
Speaker 3: he been? Because he was with Tennessee I think, and
Speaker 3: he was on the Eagles roster.
Speaker 2: It felt like the last.
Speaker 3: Three or four years we didn't really see or hear
Speaker 3: much of Julio Jones, but he did have a five
Speaker 3: year window where he put up. If the Falcons win
Speaker 3: that Super Bowl against the Patriots, we remember his catch
Speaker 3: on what third and twenty two that set him up
Speaker 3: where they could have had a field goal, they would
Speaker 3: have won the Super Bowl. They of course had some
Speaker 3: you know, interesting call plays called, but he would have
Speaker 3: been immortalized for one of the great clutch catches in
Speaker 3: NFL history. It's just a footnote, but I think he
Speaker 3: had like thir teen thousand receiving yards, sixty six touchdowns
Speaker 3: something like that. And I you know, when somebody says
Speaker 3: hall of famer, if you said a couple of years ago,
Speaker 3: I had to say, oh, okay, of course, but I
Speaker 3: don't know. You know, did he play himself out of
Speaker 3: a Hall of Fame nomination?
Speaker 2: Yes, Pauline, all right.
Speaker 5: Should we play the game first or go through the
Speaker 5: stats first?
Speaker 2: Well, whi's the game? Is he a Hall of Famer?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 5: First ballot?
Speaker 2: You got to make oh, give me the stance first,
Speaker 2: so we can maybe change our opinion.
Speaker 5: Julio Jones when he entered the league, his first few
Speaker 5: years he was banged up, but then he went on
Speaker 5: a run, like you said, for six years one hundred
Speaker 5: and four catches, one thirty six, eighty three, eighty eight,
Speaker 5: one thirteen ninety nine. He had led the league in
Speaker 5: the receiving yard is twice, five time All Pro in
Speaker 5: a row, five in a row All Pro. So a
Speaker 5: couple of second teams, but that counts.
Speaker 2: Oh so wame it? First team All Pro twice, first.
Speaker 5: Team All okay, okay, second team All Pro thrice?
Speaker 2: Okay? Alrightmm hmm, Todd.
Speaker 3: Julio Jones Hall of Famer. Yes, but not right away, Marvin. Yes,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say yes, Paul.
Speaker 5: Yeah, the run is that good.
Speaker 2: And that's the Julio Jones game.
Speaker 5: I think the cop might be Calvin Johnson because Calvin
Speaker 5: Johnson had six in a row, very similar, and but
Speaker 5: Calvin retired by choice. He didn't limp to the finish.
Speaker 5: But their their windows of their six years are almost identical.
Speaker 7: For production.
Speaker 3: Okay, but Antonio Brown Hall of Famer. Look at the production,
Speaker 3: take away the other stuff. Just production, Antonio Brown, Hall
Speaker 3: of Famer. He had about a five or six year
Speaker 3: window unstoppable seaton. By take away the other stuff, you mean,
Speaker 3: what all the crazy stuff like the way he quit
Speaker 3: the bank the Buccaneers. Yeah, yeah, I mean that's still
Speaker 3: a football thing. It is crazy as it was. Yes, Yes,
Speaker 3: and I think that was held against Tarall Owens. That
Speaker 3: was he a great teammate.
Speaker 4: Right, But as a player, one hundred percent he is, Yeah,
Speaker 4: no question.
Speaker 9: As a player, he may be the best wide receiver
Speaker 9: I've ever seen.
Speaker 2: All Right Todd, Yes, Paul, no, because.
Speaker 5: Uh short receptions. I was I always thought it was
Speaker 5: more numbers than greatness. That said, he was first team
Speaker 5: All Pro four straight years.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean he was dynamic man.
Speaker 9: He was catching balls in a phone booth.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I mean they were short pounces, but he
Speaker 3: tore you know, turned those into long receptions. He was unstoppable.
Speaker 3: He was I mean that window is like damn. He
Speaker 3: is always open. Always didn't have the blazing speed like
Speaker 3: Tyreek Hill. But Tyreek Hill unstoppable? Is Tyreek Hill a
Speaker 3: Hall of Famer? Let me take a break and get
Speaker 3: some research on that. It feels ish ish. Two hours
Speaker 3: in the books, one more to go on this Tuesday.
Speaker 3: Great to be with you. Todd Fritz is here putting
Speaker 3: a smile on America's face. Nobody else in here but
Speaker 3: Todd is final hour right after this
