Speaker 1: We're down to Danette. Fritzy is out again today. We
Speaker 1: hope he's feeling better and join us on Monday. But
Speaker 1: it is a meat Friday and the Tragger girls are
Speaker 1: fired up, and so are we. Smoked Italian meat balls,
Speaker 1: sweet and hot Italian.
Speaker 2: Sausage, baked cheesy garlic bread. Who has it better than
Speaker 2: we do? No, No, that didn't sound enthusiastic. Let's try again.
Speaker 2: Who has it better than we do?
Speaker 3: Nobody there?
Speaker 2: That sounds like you're not taking this for granted. It
Speaker 2: does mean something to you. She is, Let's put my
Speaker 2: smooth voice.
Speaker 3: She whizzies. Guys, Oh, that was your smooth voice when.
Speaker 4: Nobody.
Speaker 3: I'll take the lower you can you can smell that garlic.
Speaker 3: Guys want to take the higher harmonies? Yeah, I'll take
Speaker 3: the lower one and then he'll just it'll sound like
Speaker 3: twelve voys.
Speaker 2: No Moonshine madness, take advantage of that tailgate. Moonshine makes
Speaker 2: sure you place your order. Danpatrick dot com. The Let's
Speaker 2: see the Indy cars are hitting the Southern California Thermal
Speaker 2: Club and one million dollar prize on the line. All
Speaker 2: the action Sunday, twelve thirty Eastern on NBC and Peacock Poll.
Speaker 2: Question for the final hour. Jake from State Farm is
Speaker 2: going to join us, coming up here in a little bit.
Speaker 2: And one of our favorite analysts, Jim Jackson from Turner
Speaker 2: and Fox Sports. He is covering the NCAA tournament. All right,
Speaker 2: seet what do we have for the final line?
Speaker 5: We've got two up there right now, Dan, who's having
Speaker 5: a worse twenty four hours? Shohotani or John Calpari. Right
Speaker 5: now it is fifty two percent for the Kentucky head coach.
Speaker 5: And then the foul call at the end of the
Speaker 5: Kansas Stanford game was the worst call in tournament history
Speaker 5: or the worst call of all time any sport. Right now,
Speaker 5: eighty eighty three percent have it as the worst in
Speaker 5: tournament history.
Speaker 2: Nick and Wisconsin on that topic, I Nick, what's on
Speaker 2: your mind?
Speaker 6: Good morning? Five to eleven, two hundred pounds.
Speaker 3: Are you scuba diving? Yeah?
Speaker 6: Right? Long time official have been working high school basketball
Speaker 6: for twenty years, fortunate to work five state championship games
Speaker 6: and worked at the college level for seven years. I'm
Speaker 6: curious on your take that we replay miss calls or
Speaker 6: non calls by officials over and over and they are human,
Speaker 6: no different than the players or the coaches. But we
Speaker 6: never replay the turnover that caused the fasts break basket,
Speaker 6: or a miss defensive assignment that left it open three,
Speaker 6: or a substitute by a coach that was kind of
Speaker 6: the wrong change. Why do we replay officials non calls
Speaker 6: or miss calls over and over, but never the mistakes
Speaker 6: the players or coaches made.
Speaker 2: Well, you know, one of the most replayed plays is
Speaker 2: Chris Webber calling a time out.
Speaker 3: After traveling. Yes, so we do show that.
Speaker 2: As far as a substitute, that's not really something exciting
Speaker 2: where you go look at that he's substituting the wrong guy.
Speaker 2: This is a dramatic play at the end of the
Speaker 2: game and maybe you have another upset. That's why it's
Speaker 2: played over and over and over and over. If this
Speaker 2: was a regular season game, it wouldn't get the coverage.
Speaker 2: It's March madness. You're on a big stage. They missed
Speaker 2: the call, yes, and it's not really seen this way.
Speaker 5: But you could say that every time you show a
Speaker 5: walk off home run, you're showing a terrible pitch by
Speaker 5: a pitcher, or every time you're showing somebody hit a
Speaker 5: game winning three, you're showing bad defense by somebody who
Speaker 5: didn't do their job. I mean you are showing somebody's
Speaker 5: failure in all of those moments.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Jack Goalkey, we're showing reed Shepherd played bad defense then.
Speaker 5: Being absolutely cooked by a forty seven year old accountant.
Speaker 3: If you sign up for the job. Wait, what did
Speaker 3: you just call me?
Speaker 7: Looks like a thirty six year old golf pro.
Speaker 3: He's got the same bags under his eyes that I do. Wow.
Speaker 7: If Seaton Shade, he look younger than Jack Old.
Speaker 2: Okay, doesn't Jack Golkie have Dan Akroyd's haircut? Sure, Tommy
Speaker 2: Boy Ghostbusters.
Speaker 7: Yeah, Tommy Boy, where it's very up and very severe.
Speaker 2: Yeah, look at dan Akroyd's haircut in Ghostbusters. No, Tommy Boy,
Speaker 2: I think it's more Tommy Boy. Did he go in
Speaker 2: and say, oh, take the dan Aykroyd Tommy Boy haircut?
Speaker 7: So are compared to Bill Paxton the actor with the hair,
Speaker 7: the tight hair, brown hair.
Speaker 2: Okay, he's not lacking confidence. Here is the Oakland Star
Speaker 2: after putting away Kentucky.
Speaker 8: Obviously, we come in with the underdog by all measures,
Speaker 8: but you just gotta as a player, you can't think
Speaker 8: that way. You gotta go out there and you got
Speaker 8: to think that you have the same talent level as them.
Speaker 8: I know they have draft picks, and I know I'm
Speaker 8: not going to the NBA, but I know on any
Speaker 8: give a night, I can compete with those type of guys,
Speaker 8: and our team can compete with those type of guys.
Speaker 8: And that's why I was so confident going into it.
Speaker 8: And that's why I say we're not a Cinderella because
Speaker 8: when we play our a game where we can be
Speaker 8: the best team on the floor.
Speaker 2: He took twenty threes, he made ten, he didn't take
Speaker 2: twos and didn't have an assist. At some point does
Speaker 2: Kentucky realize that might be the only thing that he
Speaker 2: can do. But look, if Kentucky was surprised, then you
Speaker 2: know that's on their coach. But we have talked a
Speaker 2: lot about John Kella. Perry is the one and done philosophy,
Speaker 2: blueprint done in college basketball. Let's bring in the great
Speaker 2: Jim Jackson Fox Turner basketball analyst and he is in
Speaker 2: Charlotte covering those games and joins us on the program.
Speaker 2: All right, where do you stand with Kentucky and the
Speaker 2: one and done approach.
Speaker 4: Well, it's a little bit more i think convoluted than that,
Speaker 4: just because it's been a while. When coaches wanted to
Speaker 4: go young, they sort of to go young, you saw
Speaker 4: it across the country. Then coaches wanted to get older
Speaker 4: because they felt that that was the best way to win.
Speaker 4: Now here's a bigger question too, Dan is with and
Speaker 4: I try to ask questions like this with coaches when
Speaker 4: I'm doing games, especially now in the tournament, but during
Speaker 4: the season, how do you build a program? How do
Speaker 4: you build culture? Now with nil and with the transfer
Speaker 4: portal being so relevant, because before you know, you would
Speaker 4: get a freshman and you say, okay, two or three freshmen,
Speaker 4: and let's grow these young men. Let's build them by
Speaker 4: the time they're south I mean juniors and seniors their season,
Speaker 4: they know the program and of the culture, and we
Speaker 4: have an older team, and then that just goes down
Speaker 4: like Villanova, you know, would do that, Michigan State would
Speaker 4: do that, Wisconsin schools like that, Gonzaga. The challenge today
Speaker 4: is with freshmen, depending on their background, the patients part
Speaker 4: to know that you may sit a little bit and
Speaker 4: not play when in your ear other programs are saying,
Speaker 4: what you come here, you can play right away, And
Speaker 4: that may be where programs with nil may have to
Speaker 4: overpay to keep freshman in place to build that. So
Speaker 4: with John Kylipiri, Listen, last year they lost to a
Speaker 4: team that was a higher seed. So it's not just
Speaker 4: well yet young guys this year. He had an older
Speaker 4: team last year that lost, So it's and this team
Speaker 4: here with these young freshmen. Let me tell you something
Speaker 4: about Greg Campion Oakland. I've learned this over the years
Speaker 4: covering him. Coaches in the industry love and respect and
Speaker 4: hate him at the same time they don't want to
Speaker 4: schedule him in a non commerence. I've been a lot
Speaker 4: of games with Oakland, so it's against Michigan or Michigan
Speaker 4: State where there's been so much respect for him. So
Speaker 4: this is not a flul this is coaches No, he
Speaker 4: can coach Okay, But to answer your question, it's been
Speaker 4: that way in a way out in regards to just
Speaker 4: a team full of freshmen thinking that you're going to win.
Speaker 4: Coaches have gotten off that train a while ago and
Speaker 4: really search for the transfer portal to get old and stale.
Speaker 2: What would you do if you're Kentucky this situation with
Speaker 2: coach count would you would you even be thinking about
Speaker 2: making a change.
Speaker 4: I would you have to because here's the thing about
Speaker 4: You're paying coach cast a lot of money to win games.
Speaker 4: This is Kentucky. You're thinking about national championship. But also
Speaker 4: you're going to be conscious that you're not going to
Speaker 4: win a national championship every year? But how do we compete?
Speaker 4: How do we grow? Where's our where's the state of
Speaker 4: our program? These are the questions that you have to ask.
Speaker 4: We're going to be four or five years from that,
Speaker 4: and who could be the successor? Is it a younger
Speaker 4: individual that will grow with the new culture? And understand
Speaker 4: where we want to go? These are all the things
Speaker 4: that you have to understand. I just went through the
Speaker 4: process with not myself, but with the new Ad Rossborg
Speaker 4: president at Ohio State and in regards to evaluating where
Speaker 4: the program wants to beget. We're not Kentucky from a
Speaker 4: basketball perspective, but these are the questions that the same
Speaker 4: ads across the country are asking. But I think it's
Speaker 4: critical and I think now is a time that you
Speaker 4: have to reevaluate and look at whether the state of
Speaker 4: the program, whether that's cal they they're at Louisville, you
Speaker 4: know what I mean, in different areas Ohio state. You
Speaker 4: know what's out there in the market and who can
Speaker 4: best fit us, not just for today but for the
Speaker 4: next five or hopefully ten years.
Speaker 2: I just think that, you know, building up and getting
Speaker 2: that recruiting class as opposed to you know, going around
Speaker 2: the country and saying, hey, I could get a shooting guard,
Speaker 2: I can get a rebounder here. These guys are already
Speaker 2: proven and nil. I mean, the transferred portal has changed
Speaker 2: all of this. I would look at Villanova, what they've done.
Speaker 2: I'd look at what Yukon's doing right in front of
Speaker 2: us right now.
Speaker 3: It's nice.
Speaker 2: It's nice to have potential, but potential, if they reach it,
Speaker 2: they're probably only playing one year. And if I I'm
Speaker 2: going to get somebody with experience who maybe understands they're
Speaker 2: not an NBA player, That's where I'm going.
Speaker 4: Well, but here's the thing, though, Dan, You're looking at
Speaker 4: Villanova Yukon. They've already been built, so their culture was there,
Speaker 4: but this year they got Cam Spencer at Yukon to
Speaker 4: replace Hawkins and some guys. Okay, so they got one
Speaker 4: transfer in that paid huge dividends. Talking to Tom Izo
Speaker 4: at Michigan State, he's kind of in that in between
Speaker 4: where he understands that he has some young guys that
Speaker 4: he can grow, but that he may have to dip
Speaker 4: his foot at some point into the transfer portal. It's
Speaker 4: it's an interesting dynamic. Villanova is the same way this
Speaker 4: year that have you know, three or four transfer they
Speaker 4: came in. Yeah, okay that Kyle Neptune had to figure
Speaker 4: out how to build that program differently, and I don't
Speaker 4: think you're going to be able to build it the
Speaker 4: same way that you did before. Look Chris Jans for
Speaker 4: Mississippi State, the coach there at a press conference, came
Speaker 4: in and said, I'm not here to build a program.
Speaker 4: I'm here to win. And if that means that every
Speaker 4: year i'ma have to go to the transport portal and
Speaker 4: look for a point guard for shooting guard, That's how
Speaker 4: I see it as building. So everybody has their different
Speaker 4: way of looking at it, Dan, but we're still evolving
Speaker 4: into what NIL and this transport portal is ultimately going
Speaker 4: to be. So we're not done yet it's still some
Speaker 4: adjustice to a matrix. I believe that are going to
Speaker 4: happen in the next few years.
Speaker 2: Talking to Jim Jackson, former NBA star, Ohio State star
Speaker 2: and now working for Fox and Turner as a basketball analyst,
Speaker 2: you know you, I don't know how much you got
Speaker 2: to see with Jack Golki lighting up Kentucky. But like,
Speaker 2: guys get into the zone and it's just weird, go
Speaker 2: like that feeling you get. You don't know how you
Speaker 2: get into it or how you fall out of it.
Speaker 2: But he was in it, certainly in the first half.
Speaker 2: What is that feeling like?
Speaker 4: It's nothing like it. It's nothing you to prepare for.
Speaker 4: I mean one time when I was my fifty point
Speaker 4: game in Dallas, I was sick. The night before We're
Speaker 4: playing in Denver. Couldn't sleep, you know, the altitude, it
Speaker 4: was dry in my room, had a sinus infection. I
Speaker 4: was up all night. I had had to actually turn
Speaker 4: on the shower to let steam in in the room
Speaker 4: so I could breathe a little bit. So the next
Speaker 4: day practice, I mean, shoot around, I'm not feeling well,
Speaker 4: I'm dragging, But as a game, I got closer to
Speaker 4: the game. I just felt relaxed. I didn't think about anything.
Speaker 4: I didn't know Ala have fifty. But once I started
Speaker 4: to play, I just let the game take over. They
Speaker 4: didn't think about it. And guys I've talked to are
Speaker 4: guys I seen that have been in the zone. It's
Speaker 4: just one of those things, is that, Dan, It's a
Speaker 4: it's a euphoria you have. We don't even think about it.
Speaker 4: Body is just so real, like you just hope you're
Speaker 4: just playing. And the teammates know it too.
Speaker 3: Okay, I was going to ask you that, Oh yeah.
Speaker 4: Teammates and coaches know it. So we'll try to get
Speaker 4: a player in the situation where the ball touches their
Speaker 4: hand and you get guys easy shots. And then once
Speaker 4: you start cooking sometimes bro you some of the shots,
Speaker 4: he said, you know, you just over two or three defended,
Speaker 4: and the defense defense nothing you can do about it
Speaker 4: unless you just all out faceguard. I mean, he never
Speaker 4: touches the ball, which is virtually impossible because you're gonna
Speaker 4: give up laps and everything else around the court. But
Speaker 4: nothing like it, Dan.
Speaker 2: We had Right Thompson, great writer from ESPN. He did
Speaker 2: a profile on Caitlyn Clark and I said, you know,
Speaker 2: who does she remind you of? And he said Kobe
Speaker 2: with a ponytail, And he said that.
Speaker 4: From what perspective, was it her demeanor? What kill her attitude? Killer?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Yeah, But you know, and here's the thing too. It's
Speaker 4: funny because women's basketball has had this in the past,
Speaker 4: but the the I think what's happening is in sports
Speaker 4: today because of social media, because and io, because of sponsorship,
Speaker 4: more eyes have been on it. Yet last year's National
Speaker 4: Championship Game helped tremendously, But it's been Maya Moore, Brianna Store,
Speaker 4: Candae Parker. It's been women's basketball players who have dominated
Speaker 4: and played well and could have been in the same position.
Speaker 4: And this is not taking anything away from Caitland Clark
Speaker 4: that same situation, but the coverage, the intrigue wasn't the same.
Speaker 4: Does she have a story? It's a story there that
Speaker 4: makes people want to follow. And the thing that I
Speaker 4: hate is this, you can praise other athletes and other
Speaker 4: players without tearing one down. And that's that's the tendency
Speaker 4: of what has to happen. Well, Caitlyn Clark is this,
Speaker 4: but she's not. That has nothing to do with it.
Speaker 4: She is her own entity. She's great at what she does.
Speaker 4: If you want to say another player is better, or
Speaker 4: another player at a different time is butter, that's fine,
Speaker 4: but don't tear her now because of that. You know
Speaker 4: the whole thing with pistol p they're totally two different things. Okay,
Speaker 4: distol Peace record is totally different because it's a men's game.
Speaker 4: So I understand how they compare the numbers, but how
Speaker 4: you get to those numbers are totally different because the
Speaker 4: level of competition is different, the timing is different. But
Speaker 4: what she's accomplished in women's basketball is not. It's unbelievable
Speaker 4: what she's done for the sport, and she should be
Speaker 4: praised for that. But there are other women who come
Speaker 4: before her who are playing right now that also should
Speaker 4: be acknowledged. Maybe not in the same stratosphere because she's
Speaker 4: the hot one right now, but my goodness, man, more people.
Speaker 4: I saw a thing where more people have bought and
Speaker 4: bought tickets to the women's Final four already than the
Speaker 4: men all right, already?
Speaker 3: Does she have more range than you did?
Speaker 4: Yes, no doubt because we weren't shooting thinking about this
Speaker 4: dad back then. If you shot Larry Bird is a
Speaker 4: great shooter. If you shot three three points, you were
Speaker 4: shooting a lot. That's why records are hard to like. Okay,
Speaker 4: you passed Larry Bird? What duh? I mean Larry Bird
Speaker 4: shot three to three points. He maybe shot one hundred
Speaker 4: for the year. If you're a quarterback, if you think
Speaker 4: about this outside of maybe Dan Fouts and maybe Fran
Speaker 4: targetson back in the day, Dan Marino, who threw the
Speaker 4: ball a lot, it was run first pass. Yeah, so
Speaker 4: you don't think Troy Aikman, you don't think Joe Montana.
Speaker 4: If they threw and passed the ball a lot more,
Speaker 4: they'll have more yards.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So of course Drew Brees and all these quarterbacks today
Speaker 4: are gonna have more passing yards because they're throwing the
Speaker 4: ball thirty forty times a game. Well, back then, you
Speaker 4: threw it eighteen to twenty or fifteen. So we got
Speaker 4: to keep in mind when we talk about these records,
Speaker 4: how they're accomplished and why, and you got to keep
Speaker 4: that in a relative format when you're talking about the greats.
Speaker 3: Oh, I got one more question for you.
Speaker 4: I didn't do it.
Speaker 2: Jay Jay Williams said Kyrie is the most skilled player
Speaker 2: to ever play the game.
Speaker 4: It's hard not to argue with his skill set what
Speaker 4: he does. Okay, when people hear that, oh of the
Speaker 4: let's just break it down. Left hand, right hand, he
Speaker 4: can shoot it from three. The handles are unbelievable. Now
Speaker 4: when Kyrie wants to set guys up and pass, he
Speaker 4: can do that. Can he finish with the best of
Speaker 4: them at the rim? Yes, he can. You tell me
Speaker 4: one area of Kyrie's game that's not exceptional. You can
Speaker 4: send them left. He's gonna finish with his left, right hand,
Speaker 4: jump shot, mid range, a little post up on the block.
Speaker 4: What are you going to take away from Okay?
Speaker 3: Is he the most skilled player in the history of
Speaker 3: the game in your opinion?
Speaker 4: No, one of the most skilled players. Kobe was unbelievable.
Speaker 4: You know, so was Tim Duncan in his skill set. Okay,
Speaker 4: his skill set, his fundamentally skill set, he was unbelievable.
Speaker 4: Michael Jordan with his footwork.
Speaker 3: Is Kyrie more skilled than the Joker?
Speaker 4: No? I think both have their own What Joker is
Speaker 4: able to do at seven foot is unbelievable, and he's
Speaker 4: doing the same kind of thing now. He doesn't handle
Speaker 4: it like Kyrie, and I don't expect him to. But
Speaker 4: he handles it good enough to get from point A
Speaker 4: to point B to push it down the break. Have
Speaker 4: you seen, joker? I did really get picked the basketball?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 4: No, his handle was made for what he does. It's
Speaker 4: made for what he does.
Speaker 3: All right, have fun today?
Speaker 4: Well, the day is the perfect day. You know what,
Speaker 4: It's just it's just practice, practically.
Speaker 3: Have fun today.
Speaker 4: Well, well, I had a couple of cigars a little
Speaker 4: bit later.
Speaker 3: Oh really, okay? Always what are we smoking?
Speaker 4: I have a little Hoya Monter Ray Sam Juan oh
Speaker 4: Coheba fifty fifth, one of my favorites. Yeah, okay, it'll
Speaker 4: be a two for three for to day.
Speaker 3: I had a Koheba robusto last night?
Speaker 4: Did you was it Dominican or Cuban? Which one one?
Speaker 3: I don't know. You can't smoke here.
Speaker 4: No, no, you can't buy it. You can you can
Speaker 4: you can smoke that.
Speaker 3: Okay. If if it's a gift, I don't need to
Speaker 3: know how you.
Speaker 4: Got it exactly exactly.

Speaker 3: We got introduced to uh Jake from State Farm. That
Speaker 3: was last year and Kevin Miles is his name.
Speaker 2: I don't know if many people know his name, but
Speaker 2: a longtime actor of course, the Star and Jake Good
Speaker 2: to see again, Kevin good to see what what can
Speaker 2: I call you?
Speaker 3: Do you want me to call you? Kevin?
Speaker 11: Hey, you can call me keV Dan. We've been this
Speaker 11: second time around. You lose for this year, you know,
Speaker 11: it's it's.
Speaker 4: keV for you.
Speaker 2: Okay, how has your life changed since you started doing
Speaker 2: these State farm commercials?
Speaker 11: Wow, it's it's it's it's been a it's been such
Speaker 11: an interesting ride.
Speaker 12: I mean, I never thought that I would be really, really,
Speaker 12: really recognizable walking around. But the energy is so good,
Speaker 12: you know, the energy feels exactly where I will love
Speaker 12: life to be, you know, where everyone just has a
Speaker 12: a i mean a smile saying hello, and and they're
Speaker 12: excited to see me. I'm excited to see them. I'm
Speaker 12: glad that they're, you know, loving the campaigns. And I mean,
Speaker 12: it's it's it's been a rod like that. So it's
Speaker 12: kind of opened a lot of a lot of doors
Speaker 12: for me these days.
Speaker 2: But then I see a Caitlin Clark game in Iowa. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and okay, you're there, and Travis Scott walks by, and
Speaker 2: you up and I'm thinking, wait, Travis Scott is seeking
Speaker 2: He's going up to you instead of the other way around.
Speaker 12: Oh yeah, well, I mean if I saw him sitting there,
Speaker 12: I definitely would have went up to him as well.
Speaker 12: But it's it's actually the second time he's come up
Speaker 12: to me at an event, and it's been random seeing him.
Speaker 12: But I mean, it's it's always such an honor. It's
Speaker 12: kind of wild because I remember seeing him when he started.
Speaker 12: He opened up for the weekend and my friend and
Speaker 12: I went to his show. So being there where you know,
Speaker 12: he you know, recognizes me just sitting there is a
Speaker 12: surreal moment. I mean, but definitely feels cool, you know,
Speaker 12: to be recognized by you know, superstar megastar.
Speaker 3: Do you get a super Bowl ring from the Chiefs?
Speaker 13: You know?
Speaker 11: I keep talking to Andy about that, but he keeps
Speaker 11: dodging my text messages.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 11: I feel like maybe I could get you know, one
Speaker 11: or two, you know, maybe a diamond or two.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 11: But but I mean they go out there and do
Speaker 11: all the hard work. I'm just there before the King.
Speaker 2: But they give out rings to employees, I mean, you
Speaker 2: and Andy and Patrick and commercials. I would think that
Speaker 2: they would say, you know, Kevin, we got a got
Speaker 2: a Super Bowl.
Speaker 3: Ring for you.
Speaker 12: You know, I think I think, I think maybe for
Speaker 12: the third one, you know, I'll probably get have a
Speaker 12: better chance that you know, really smooths in the organization
Speaker 12: to get one.
Speaker 2: You know, he's Kevin Miles, He's Jake from State Farm. Now,
Speaker 2: I was wondering, let's say somebody wanted to put you
Speaker 2: in a movie and you're a serial killer. Oh okay,
Speaker 2: do you have to run that by State Farm? If
Speaker 2: you're going to be a serial killer in a movie,
Speaker 2: you know, truly, yeah.
Speaker 12: Something something very very dark. Really, I would let them know.
Speaker 12: But honestly, you know, they've been super supportive of my
Speaker 12: acting career.

Speaker 11: would be high. But sometimes, you know, I always want
Speaker 11: them to do their thing too, you know.

Speaker 12: and she's such a sweet person, but just a monster
Speaker 12: on the court, Like when she turns it on, she
Speaker 12: turns it on. And I never really want to be
Speaker 12: there to distract I don't think I distract her anything,
Speaker 12: but uh, but I feel more like a friend that
Speaker 12: just wants to be out of the way sometimes, you know,
Speaker 12: And if I'm there to support I, you know, even
Speaker 12: at that last.
Speaker 11: Game, you know, I uh, I don't know.
Speaker 4: I didn't.

Speaker 11: I'll send you a sneak peak BTS picture.
Speaker 2: You could even just do like not even the face

Speaker 2: Kevin Miles aka Jake from State Farm. Pretty good run,
Speaker 2: you know, Yeah, it's a great run. And they always
Speaker 2: give him like just a good one. Yeah, he'll be
Speaker 2: like just one line. He always has to have one that,
Speaker 2: you know, get to have maybe the best line, although
Speaker 2: Reggie's line with a you know, an old pacer.
Speaker 3: Yeah. See, I am still just.
Speaker 5: Blown away by the level of fame that he has acquired, Kevin,
Speaker 5: that he's just like well, I mean if I saw
Speaker 5: Travis Scott, I would have just gone up to him first.
Speaker 3: What even then?
Speaker 4: What? Yeah?
Speaker 7: So if you remember the original State Farm commercial where
Speaker 7: there was a guy named Jake, and remember the wife
Speaker 7: and the husband and he's talking late night and it
Speaker 7: was this kind of dumpy looking guy at a State
Speaker 7: Farm office. He goes, I'm wearing Khakis. So everyone wonders
Speaker 7: why Kevin Miles, the actor, replaced him in the commercial.
Speaker 7: So the guy in the original commercial was a real
Speaker 7: state farm agent at their headquarters, and so he did
Speaker 7: they just placed him in the original commercial because I
Speaker 7: think he had three words. I think one word maybe Khakis.
Speaker 3: Oh so what he said? Well, what are you wearing? Yes?
Speaker 7: And yeah there's a big dude. Oh okay, says Khakis.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Well that they didn't put that guy in the next
Speaker 7: set of commercials because they needed an actor to be
Speaker 7: in these series of commercials. And that's where Kevin Miles
Speaker 7: got high.
Speaker 3: Pretty good run. Justin and Idaho, Hi, Justin. What's on

Speaker 5: people not getting the tongue in cheekness of this, but
Speaker 5: eighty three percent is the worst call in tournament history.
Speaker 3: Okay, christ and Florida. Hi Chris, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 17: Hey Dan? First of all, I just wanted to say,
Speaker 17: and I think Polly would totally agree with me, is
Speaker 17: this is one, by far, one of the best shows
Speaker 17: that Fritzi's ever had, without a doubt. The other thing
Speaker 17: I wanted to say to Paulli was I disagree with
Speaker 17: something he said yesterday about show Hey A Tani. I
Speaker 17: do think he should be investigated, partly because I'm a
Speaker 17: big Giants fan, but I also think Mookie Betts is
Speaker 17: involved somehow. I just think he's got to be involved.
Speaker 17: He's close with show. Hey, and what about what about
Speaker 17: Dave Roberts.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're gonna get everybody suspended.
Speaker 6: I like that.
Speaker 3: Okay, I see what you're doing. That's that's one way
Speaker 3: to beat the Dodgers. Spend them all.
Speaker 2: Yeah, good in everybody in the lineup. Dale in Kentucky,
Speaker 2: Welcome back, Dale.
Speaker 3: What's on your mind?
Speaker 18: Hey, Dan black Friday here in Kentucky. I got me
Speaker 18: thinking about the level of intensity of Kentucky fans. Are
Speaker 18: you familiar with the term a WE fan? WE fan?
Speaker 2: No, unless you're saying the coach says we or that
Speaker 2: fan says we as if they're playing.
Speaker 14: We played well. We played well.
Speaker 18: So it got me thinking, other than Alabama football in
Speaker 18: Kentucky basketball, are there any other fan bases that are
Speaker 18: predominantly WE fans in sport?
Speaker 2: Oh I would imagine Ohio State, Like, there's a lot
Speaker 2: of them. There's some that you probably wouldn't you wouldn't
Speaker 2: think would be saying that. I think most fan bases
Speaker 2: talk about we.
Speaker 3: Yes see, I.
Speaker 5: Don't even understand why saying we is a problem? Like
Speaker 5: to me, if you're somebody who gets upset by someone
Speaker 5: referring to like the team as we, like, oh yeah,
Speaker 5: how many minutes did you play last night?
Speaker 3: Dude? Just it's like a car.
Speaker 5: It's like a personality flaw or something like who cares.
Speaker 5: Like even my son's soccer team, I'm like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 5: we play so and so this weekend. I'm just driving
Speaker 5: them to the game.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 7: But it's the one that you're personally invested in.
Speaker 3: Yeah, what's the problem.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Marvin says we when he talks about Connecticut bantasketball.
Speaker 3: Always yeah, yeah, I mean men's and women's. Yeah, I'm fine.
Speaker 2: Best game today? Do we have something that really stands?
Speaker 2: What's the upset today? Who's the Oakland today or tonight?
Speaker 2: Any any takers here?
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 7: Paul Colgate, Baylor, Colgate's been there before.
Speaker 3: Okay, they're an experienced team.
Speaker 7: Guard play Western Kentucky, Dan, you know that area of
Speaker 7: the country. Versus Marquette.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Marquet's best players still a little banged up.
Speaker 7: Yale, Auburn, mm Vermont Duke.
Speaker 3: That's a good one. Oh, there's some people who have
Speaker 3: picked Vermont to win that game?
Speaker 6: Did you.
Speaker 7: It's so pandering, it's complete panning.
Speaker 3: What was it, Terry Bowden? You've got Vermont beating Wisconsin? Yes,
Speaker 3: the Catamounts.
Speaker 2: Uh was it Terry Bowden the former coach who told
Speaker 2: us that joke about Yale? Oh where he was asking somebody,
Speaker 2: where are you from? And he said Yale? And the
Speaker 2: guy then goes where are you from? He goes, Yale.
Speaker 3: At little southern accent there. I don't know what made
Speaker 3: me think of that.
Speaker 13: Uh.
Speaker 3: So are you guys calling the Vermont duke up set here? Wow?
Speaker 7: A couple of us got that. Okay, Grambling Purdue sixteen
Speaker 7: seve on a run.
Speaker 3: They're like a twenty six and a half point underdog.
Speaker 7: Longwood Houston just for the headlong Wood, Yes, yeah. And
Speaker 7: then Grand Canyon, which is nowhere near the Grand Canyon.
Speaker 7: It's in Phoenix versus Saint Mary's.
Speaker 2: I'm going Grand Canyon to shock the college baunsketball world. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm going Grand Canyon. Yeah, PAULI goes, you know, Grand Canyon.
Speaker 2: It's not near the Grand Canyon. I go, what's in Arizona? So, boy, like,
Speaker 2: I'm going to give them what's said coastal Carolina is
Speaker 2: not on the coast. It's like six miles inland. But
Speaker 2: inland Carolina has no ring to it. No one's going
Speaker 2: to England.
Speaker 7: This day in sports history, let's see oh eighteen ninety three,
Speaker 7: the first college women's basketball game played at Smith College

Speaker 2: near fatal injury. Another player's skate accidentally slit his throat.
