Speaker 1: noon eastern six to nine Pacific on Fox Sports Radio,
Speaker 1: and you can find us on the iHeartRadio app at
Speaker 1: FSR or stream us live every day at YouTube dot
Speaker 1: com slash the Dan Patrick Show. You are listening to
Speaker 1: The Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio. Welcome to
Speaker 1: the program. Already in progress. We're down to Dan at
Speaker 1: Seaton is off today, but his wife Aaron is dominating.
Speaker 1: She has San Diego State versus Yukon in the final,
Speaker 1: with Yukon winning at all. She is probably I don't
Speaker 1: even know the percentile how many brackets in the bracket challenge.
Speaker 1: Now she's obviously dominating our bracket challenge, But how many
Speaker 1: brackets have been filled out where you had the exact
Speaker 1: final four and you have the exact national title game
Speaker 1: and now you have Connecticut winning at all. Yes, poem,
Speaker 1: I'm using ESPN's bracket contests as a sampler. Last week
Speaker 1: they had twelve of twenty million brackets had the final
Speaker 1: four correct, which means about one in six hundred thousand. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was your chances. Now you whittle it down to
Speaker 1: two teams are out, which I'm sure cuts that down
Speaker 1: into half. Then Yukon winning. There could be as few
Speaker 1: as five nationwide that have this bracket. Yukon is the
Speaker 1: first team to win five games by at least fifteen
Speaker 1: points in the same tournament, and this will be the
Speaker 1: first ever NCAA title game to match a number four
Speaker 1: against a number five. We talked to Jim Beheim, former
Speaker 1: Syracuse head coach, and we talked about Connecticut. If you
Speaker 1: look at school since nineteen ninety nine who have won
Speaker 1: national titles, Connecticut's your leader and the chance to win
Speaker 1: another title. You to have a school winning national titles
Speaker 1: with three different coaches. Kevin Ollie didn't last long in
Speaker 1: stores Connecticut, but won a title in twenty fourteen. Now
Speaker 1: Danny Hurley is in there, and Jim Beheim was talking
Speaker 1: about Jim Calhoun being one of the great coaches of
Speaker 1: our era. Yes, Mart, it's fun because Yukon they kind
Speaker 1: of operate like one of the smaller schools. So every
Speaker 1: single national championship that they've had, it's been a group
Speaker 1: of seniors or a team that went really deep the
Speaker 1: year before, like the Rip Hamilton years. They lost in
Speaker 1: the Elite eight oh four they lost in the Elite
Speaker 1: eight and then everyone came back. So they kind of
Speaker 1: operate not in like the Kentucky UCLA Duke way, but
Speaker 1: just in a real maybe smaller school. Yeah. I think
Speaker 1: that's the key. And I remember when they were in
Speaker 1: the Yankee Conference and then you end up going to
Speaker 1: the Big East. But you have to be consistent each year.
Speaker 1: You got to be there, you know it's a top
Speaker 1: ten team, you got to be there in the sweet
Speaker 1: sixteen or Elite eight. That's how you become a blue
Speaker 1: blood and you win your national championships. And Connecticut is
Speaker 1: a big favorite, favorite by seven and a half tonight
Speaker 1: against San Diego State. I have the odds next season
Speaker 1: to win the national title. Anybody want to guess? Yukon
Speaker 1: is third, tied with Kansas for next year plus fifteen
Speaker 1: hundred you have, yes, Martin Kentucky Kentucky second. With that
Speaker 1: great recruiting class, Duke is the odds on favorite next
Speaker 1: year to win the national championship. So it's Duke Kentucky.
Speaker 1: How many years that has been the case? Out of default? Yeah,
Speaker 1: but Kentucky has a great recruiting class. I saw a
Speaker 1: list of possible replacements for John Caliparry. What the heck
Speaker 1: John Caliperry And you know, these are all coaches who
Speaker 1: had the same kind of years that Caliperry had a
Speaker 1: Kentucky and I'm going, what's the upgrade here? Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: missing something here. Bryce Drew at Baylor hasn't done anything
Speaker 1: after winning the national title. But there's a lot of
Speaker 1: these guys and you go, oh, okay, but it feels
Speaker 1: like this might be Cal's one and done. You better
Speaker 1: do something with this recruiting class this year, or he
Speaker 1: might be done at Kentucky. I'd be careful what you
Speaker 1: ask for trying to bring in somebody who's going to
Speaker 1: be an upgrade there. But it's Duke, Kentucky, Yukon, Kansas, Marquette,
Speaker 1: and Perdue. Those are the odds on favorites to win
Speaker 1: the national title next year. Eight seven seven three D
Speaker 1: P Show Email Andre Stpa, Dan Patrick dot com, Twitter
Speaker 1: handle at DP Show. As we always do every Monday,
Speaker 1: Best and Worst of the weekend, we'll get to your
Speaker 1: phone calls coming up. L Shoe beats Iowa. We spend
Speaker 1: a little bit of time talking about what happened at
Speaker 1: the end of that game. We spend a lot more
Speaker 1: time talking about leading up to that game, maybe the
Speaker 1: entire year. The overcoverage. Sometimes that's what bothers us. Caitlin
Speaker 1: Clark doesn't cover herself. ESPN covered her, and she leaned
Speaker 1: into it. She was available for interviews, name, image, and likeness,
Speaker 1: all of that. She was great TV and a basketball player.
Speaker 1: But what happened at the end of the game. LSU
Speaker 1: dominates Angel Reese, who's in foul trouble most of the game.
Speaker 1: Took it personally about how Caitlyn Clark was kind of
Speaker 1: taunting South Carolina's team. One of their players was on
Speaker 1: the perimeter and she's like waving her off, like I'm
Speaker 1: not going to guard you, and then she ended up
Speaker 1: hitting like three three's and nearly cost Ioa the game.
Speaker 1: Caitlyn Clark is a fun player, flamboyant, and she's going
Speaker 1: to get the crowd involved. You know there's a lot
Speaker 1: going into this. But having watched a lot of her
Speaker 1: games this year, yes, games not highlights. She brings the
Speaker 1: crowd in and while we look at that as that's
Speaker 1: fun and cute, other players might not look at it
Speaker 1: that way. Is she taunting them? No, she's having fun. Okay,
Speaker 1: what is sportsmanship? What is gamesmanship? I think we have
Speaker 1: a different definition. Sometimes when the story fits, what we
Speaker 1: think is, oh, that's gamesmanship, And maybe with another player
Speaker 1: we'd go that, what about the sportsmanship? Angel Reese chose
Speaker 1: that moment, and it's her moment to do what she
Speaker 1: did with Caitlyn Clark. Obviously, Caitlyn Clark was in her
Speaker 1: head because she just won the national championship and all
Speaker 1: she wanted to do was point to a ring finger
Speaker 1: to say, I'm getting one of these. And Caitlyn Clark
Speaker 1: did not acknowledge, she didn't get involved in this. She
Speaker 1: didn't say anything afterwards. She was complimentary, highly complimentary, and
Speaker 1: just said sometimes it doesn't go your way. They hit
Speaker 1: big shots. You know, fouls were called the way the
Speaker 1: referees called that game. By the way, there were thirty
Speaker 1: seven fouls called. So total fouls last five title games,
Speaker 1: thirty seven. It was thirty two and twenty twenty two,
Speaker 1: twenty eight before that, thirty three the year before that,
Speaker 1: so around there, around you know this same number twenty
Speaker 1: eighteen when Mississippi State beat Notre Dame, there were thirty
Speaker 1: eight fouls called in it. The problem is not how
Speaker 1: many fouls they're called. It's when they're called, why they're called,
Speaker 1: and how does that affect the game? The stars we're
Speaker 1: tuning in to see Angel Reees. She's a great player,
Speaker 1: was a great player at Maryland. We want to see
Speaker 1: what you know these great players in college basketball. On
Speaker 1: Caitlyn Clark as well. But Caitlyn Clark lost her composure.
Speaker 1: LSU got into her head. And were they physical, yes
Speaker 1: they were, but Caitlyn Clark allowed them to get to her.
Speaker 1: I think LSU was the better team, and I think
Speaker 1: IOWA really looks spent there in the first half. Certainly
Speaker 1: in the second half it was over. But Kim Mulki
Speaker 1: did a wonderful job turning that program around, bringing in
Speaker 1: transfers and winning the national title. Those are the things
Speaker 1: we should remember, not Caitlyn Clark and Angel Reef. That's
Speaker 1: where people will troll you today. And it's about race.
Speaker 1: It's black, it's white. How do you see a black athlete?
Speaker 1: How do you see a white athlete? That's about you.
Speaker 1: I look at the game one, the sport one. There
Speaker 1: were people who watched the game. They were fascinated. Now
Speaker 1: are they fascinated because they're seeing Caitlyn Clark. Yes, if
Speaker 1: Caitlyn Clark was black, she would be Steph Curry. She
Speaker 1: would be That's how she should be viewed. And Caitlyn
Speaker 1: Clark should be viewed as Steph Curry and everybody should
Speaker 1: love that. She's great for the game. She brought eyeballs
Speaker 1: to the game. I think these girls, these women were
Speaker 1: upset of the coverage of her and LSU and South
Speaker 1: Carolina not getting any coverage whatsoever. An ESPN runs college basketball,
Speaker 1: No Page Beckers, no Yukon. We found Iowa and wed
Speaker 1: on Caitlyn Clark. I can understand if you're playing and
Speaker 1: you're saying, what do we have to do to get recognized, Well,
Speaker 1: you won a national championship. Now you get you know, recognized.
Speaker 1: But to make no mistake about this, Caitlyn Clark led
Speaker 1: the nation in scoring and assist Okay, just start that,
Speaker 1: just start right there. It's not like she's manufactured, like, oh,
Speaker 1: we're gonna make her, you know, like Tim Tebow. We're
Speaker 1: gonna make her into something. She is something, something we
Speaker 1: haven't seen. Her average three pointer made was just under
Speaker 1: twenty six feet. Go stand on a basketball court measure
Speaker 1: twenty six feet and then let me let me know
Speaker 1: how you do. She was doing that in transition. She
Speaker 1: was doing that with a hand in her face. She's
Speaker 1: a spectacular player. LSU was the better team, but if
Speaker 1: you get caught up in race, you're really missing the
Speaker 1: bigger picture here. And that was a lot of fun
Speaker 1: to watch, even going back to Louisville, South Carolina and
Speaker 1: then LSU. I mean, these are really high end game.
Speaker 1: You know, beautiful, loved loved it, and I hope people
Speaker 1: will come away this year and both you know, the
Speaker 1: beauty is unlike the men's game. They would already be
Speaker 1: gone to the NBA. But Angel Reese's back, Caitlin Clark
Speaker 1: is back. I would have a game where if Connecticut
Speaker 1: wins the national title, you put Connecticut against Kentucky next
Speaker 1: year on an aircraft carrier, and then you have LSU
Speaker 1: play IOWA a neutral site in Indianapolis or Dallas. Let's go.
Speaker 1: Let's get it done, all right? Eight seven seven three
Speaker 1: d P show email address DP at Dan Patrick dot com.
Speaker 1: Doug in North Carolina, Hi Doug, what's on your mind? Well?
Speaker 1: Then my best of the weekend. You know, when you
Speaker 1: become a father, you think you're gonna have a little
Speaker 1: mini me, and then it turns out that these kids
Speaker 1: have their own interests. My son was never interested in sports,
Speaker 1: but he recently started, I guess going or talking with
Speaker 1: a girl who is a huge college basketball fan. On
Speaker 1: Saturday night, he said to be Dad, there's a match on.
Speaker 1: I want to watch it. And I said, oh, I'll
Speaker 1: watch it. And I thought it was cute because he
Speaker 1: called it a match and not a game. So I said, yeah,
Speaker 1: let's watch it together. So that was the best of
Speaker 1: the weekend that I could share my love of sports
Speaker 1: with my son. Worst of the weekend he turned on
Speaker 1: the TV to WrestleMania and I know that's a pel
Speaker 1: On Peacock and that's a partner. I missed the Holk
Speaker 1: Connecticut game because I had to watch this match with
Speaker 1: my son. All Right, well, I'm not I'm not anti wrestling.
Speaker 1: Like when you talk about marketing geniuses, you know, you
Speaker 1: go back to the WWF and now ww they you know,
Speaker 1: they basically said, no, we're entertainment. Yeah we're we're going
Speaker 1: to agree this is entertainment. It's not real. Come on
Speaker 1: in him, you sell out so far back to back nights.
Speaker 1: Snoop Dogg is there, I ain't. George Kennel was there.
Speaker 1: Whoever is hot at the moment. Pat McAfee, come on in, Logan, Paul,
Speaker 1: come on in, let's go. Let's do it. And you
Speaker 1: you know, they create an event and they have done
Speaker 1: it wonderfully, so I appreciate that. And then I think
Speaker 1: the WWE was sold to Endeavor today maybe or at
Speaker 1: least the majority of and Endeavor owns UFC. And combine
Speaker 1: the two and have the stars come in and hey,
Speaker 1: you're not gonna, you know, be in UFC anymore. Come
Speaker 1: on over, WWE, and you know whatever, Combine the two,
Speaker 1: get the WWE guys to go to UFC matches, be
Speaker 1: out there one. I mean, I have no issue with
Speaker 1: what wrestling does. It used to be that the wrestlers
Speaker 1: knew it was fake. They didn't like that you told
Speaker 1: him it was fake, and then all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: you go just pull the band aid off. We know
Speaker 1: it's fake. Okay, tell a hulk that he doesn't have
Speaker 1: to slice up his forehead anymore. You know those kids there, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you don't have to do that. You have to hide
Speaker 1: the razor in your you know, your wrist band. There.
Speaker 1: Let's see what a James in Virginia. Hi James, what's
Speaker 1: on your mind today? Oh? Thank you for taking my call. Brother.
Speaker 1: Happy Monday, DP. Then that LU the Commanders. Man, what
Speaker 1: a great weekend of basketball. Man. That SAU ending with
Speaker 1: San Diego State at the end was amazing. For what
Speaker 1: I want to hype up today is women's college basketball, man,
Speaker 1: because Virginia's at LSU, South Carolina, Iowa or amazing games.
Speaker 1: The finals was a tough game. Anybody in their feeling
Speaker 1: has never played a competitive sport, man, because when you're competing,
Speaker 1: your feelings are all involved. Man, You're going hard and
Speaker 1: sometimes things happened. But I love the competitiveness in the game.
Speaker 1: And let me tell you, man, Kaitlin Clarton, we didn't
Speaker 1: find her, man, she found us because that girl is amazing. Man.
Speaker 1: And I'll say this lastly, Kim Moki fermented herself as
Speaker 1: one of the greatest caused basketball coaches of all time
Speaker 1: win her first national title as LSU first coach to
Speaker 1: ever win the two programs in the women's game. So
Speaker 1: what a great year. Man. I can't wait because they
Speaker 1: all come back. Ya. Thank you, James, jan salute to
Speaker 1: the Commander. She hast I was thinking he was more
Speaker 1: of a Andrew Rees guy. Oh yeah, yeah, I was
Speaker 1: thinking about it. Yeah. You know what I did love
Speaker 1: the fact in Angel Reese the Bayou Barbie. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think that's I saw that. I love it. It was
Speaker 1: funny because I just got on this women's basketball train.
Speaker 1: As far as LSU's concerned, Yeah, I literally didn't know
Speaker 1: LSU was in the final four until Friday. M Yeah,
Speaker 1: just only because the story was South Carolina or Caitlin Clark. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And what I loved is that nobody said Clark was overrated,
Speaker 1: all of them. They were like, look, she is great,
Speaker 1: but the coverage is what you guys were saying. I
Speaker 1: think they thought it was a little bit too much. Oh,
Speaker 1: I know they they know that apparent he is, absolutely, yes,
Speaker 1: but she's great for the game and she's the real deal.
Speaker 1: I mean, when you're shooting the way she shoots in
Speaker 1: traffic contested, but they you know, they took her out
Speaker 1: of her game. They did a wonderful job. Yes, mor yeah,
Speaker 1: they held it to thirty um. But also I think
Speaker 1: beef and women's college basketball is what makes it great.
Speaker 1: Muffin McGraw and Gino Oriema going at it when Order
Speaker 1: Dame in Connecticut were at the top of her game. Yeah,
Speaker 1: come on, I was Summit, Pat Summont and Gino Oriema. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Gina was involved in some stuff well because they were
Speaker 1: the team to knock off and it used to be
Speaker 1: Tennessee and then all of a sudden, Gino was like, nope,
Speaker 1: there's a new sheriff in town. And Pat Summit being
Speaker 1: as competitive as she is, you know that she was,
Speaker 1: she was gonna come right back at him. Yeah. Pun.
Speaker 1: I really curious how this plays out is because some
Speaker 1: of these women's players, Caitlin Clark two more years of eligibility.
Speaker 1: I'm sure Reese has the same, and all these other stars.
Speaker 1: Because of the COVID year, everyone's was thrown a bonus
Speaker 1: year and with NIL, my guess is Angel Reese and
Speaker 1: Caitlin Cork will get more money going forward than they
Speaker 1: did a year ago. So they may look at the
Speaker 1: w NBA says like, I can wait, it's always going
Speaker 1: to be there. But the hotness that I have on
Speaker 1: the college stage and the NIL is they have two
Speaker 1: more years on that window and they may just milk it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know if you're going to stay how long
Speaker 1: you stay, but they may make more money than they
Speaker 1: would in the w NBA. If I'm a you know,
Speaker 1: business or a businessman in Iowa and I want her
Speaker 1: to stay, you can make it lucrative enough for her
Speaker 1: to stay instead of going into the w NBA. And
Speaker 1: the same for you know boosters. I mean, we talked
Speaker 1: to Jim Beaheim about this. He said, it's all about
Speaker 1: NIL and it's all about the transfer portal. Well, this
Speaker 1: is happening in women's college basketball as well. We'll take
Speaker 1: a break. We'll get some more phone calls coming up.
Speaker 1: Holly row who on the sidelines for the national title game.

Speaker 1: Sometimes stories get lost this time of the year. Masters
Speaker 1: week you got Final four men's and women's. The NBA
Speaker 1: draft age will not change in the new collective Bargaining Agreement.
Speaker 1: This according to WOGE, the one and done rule will
Speaker 1: stay in place, and it's going to stay in place
Speaker 1: for quite a few years here. I don't know if
Speaker 1: there was motivation from either side to make a move.
Speaker 1: According to WOJE, the Players Union, from their perspective, lowering
Speaker 1: the draft eligibility age to eighteen would bring more young
Speaker 1: players in to develop and take away roster spots from veterans.
Speaker 1: The union has suggested ways to keep veterans on the roster,
Speaker 1: possibly a roster exemption or expansion. But as it stands
Speaker 1: right now, the one and done is going to stay
Speaker 1: in college basketball, and I think there was almost a
Speaker 1: foregone conclusion that the one and done was gonna be done.
Speaker 1: All right. The poll question results from our one time
Speaker 1: what was the most exciting game this weekend? Forty nine
Speaker 1: percent say Florida Atlantic, San Diego State forty percent, Iowa
Speaker 1: South Carolina eleven percent went with LSU Iowa. All right,
Speaker 1: this is how it sounded when San Diego State and
Speaker 1: they didn't have the lead until the buzzer against Do
Speaker 1: we have that, Marv, We just have Lamont Butler talking
Speaker 1: about the last play. Oh okay, you all stepped out
Speaker 1: of bounce. Did you see the replay? Yes, you showed
Speaker 1: it to me. I know. Uh, here's Lamont Butler San
Speaker 1: Diego State on the last play. It was about seven
Speaker 1: seconds left when we got the ball and he told
Speaker 1: me just to go downhill. I'm trying to guess something
Speaker 1: at the rim, but they did a good job cutting
Speaker 1: me off. Once I looked up, it was two seconds aft,
Speaker 1: so I know I had to make a shot. Now
Speaker 1: I got to a shot that I'm comfortable with. I went,
Speaker 1: you will pull up, man. I'm just glad we went in.
Speaker 1: They didn't call play. They had a time out and
Speaker 1: they decided their coach Dutchers said, I ran out of plays.
Speaker 1: They just let him go. And sometimes you don't let
Speaker 1: the defense set up as long as you're comfortable that
Speaker 1: you're gonna get a decent shot up, and he certainly did.
Speaker 1: Great looking jumper. I mean that's right there with Keith Smart,
Speaker 1: you know, with that on the other side. But nice jumper.
Speaker 1: And that was the only time they led in the
Speaker 1: second half, maybe the only time they led in the game.
Speaker 1: But fau great run, great great run, But to lose
Speaker 1: like that, Let's see Christian in San Diego. Hey, Chris, Hey,
Speaker 1: then thanks for taking my call. I was trying to
Speaker 1: do a pivot maybe with Marvo. Yeah, just a just
Speaker 1: a straight up pivot, big Santega State fan, you're a
Speaker 1: Yukon gys run if you would take it, Marvin, you
Speaker 1: want a piece of that. I'm not taking no beds.
Speaker 1: Why I'm not taking anything right now. I gotta just
Speaker 1: focus and watch them because you know, if they lose,
Speaker 1: I gotta worry about a Pietter to face and Mario's
Speaker 1: smashing me and breaking my nose. I just got to
Speaker 1: focus on tonight. Charman soft by the way, it's very soft,
Speaker 1: very such Sorry, Christian, but Marvin is soft today. Yeah, Paul,
Speaker 1: Marvin's is in this weird position. Like a month ago,
Speaker 1: he thought Yukon was a good team. Now they're in
Speaker 1: the finals and their favorite and they've been crushing everybody.
Speaker 1: It's almost like he's got too much confidence and he's
Speaker 1: trying to dumb it down a little bit. M Is
Speaker 1: that fair? Oh, that's absolutely fair. And nobody dumps it
Speaker 1: down like you do. There's a couple of people that, oh, okay,
Speaker 1: that's some competition. Well, can you win the bracket contest
Speaker 1: celebrity bracket contest if Yukon doesn't win quote unquote celebrity, Yes,
Speaker 1: I can win. Okay, because right now I have you
Speaker 1: in first place in the celebrity and that celebrity is
Speaker 1: small letters Celebrity Brackett Challenge. You have Connecticut winning at all.
Speaker 1: Jim Baheim had, Duke Seaton has Yukon. Adam Sandler's fourth
Speaker 1: with Houston. Peter King is fifth, he had Marquette. Yeah
Speaker 1: you're you're good. Yeah, yeah, you're nobody has no you're good.
Speaker 1: You got Connecticut. I don't see how you can screw
Speaker 1: this up. Congratulations Ah thanks Yukon over Syracuse per Usual. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, Uh, do you have a new poll question
Speaker 1: moving forward, we do. What's your excitement level for Yukon
Speaker 1: San Diego State tonight. The choices are I'm so pumped,
Speaker 1: I'll have it on in the background, and now thank you.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know if you do, no, thank you.
Speaker 1: I'm curious to say for those people that have no
Speaker 1: interest in watching any of the game, which would be surprising,
Speaker 1: but maybe we'll get an interesting number. Okay, but why
Speaker 1: would people who have no interest in tune in that
Speaker 1: game listen to our show and vote on our poll questions.
Speaker 1: It may like other sports, or they just want to
Speaker 1: hear about Caitlyn Claws show. You probably like sports. They
Speaker 1: may have other things to do. They're upset it with
Speaker 1: their brackets. They love college basketball, but not Sanegos State
Speaker 1: against Yukon. Yes, if Yukan wasn't in it, I wouldn't
Speaker 1: be interested in nine twenty start. Yeah you're kidding, man?
Speaker 1: That went tough. Great if you're on the West coast, Oh,
Speaker 1: it's awesome. Yeah nine start man, yeah? Uh DJ in Texas.
Speaker 1: Then we'll give you our best and worst of the weekend.
Speaker 1: Hi DJ, Hey Dan, Hey fellas, how are you doing? Good? Good?
Speaker 1: Best and worst of the weekend. My best was basically
Speaker 1: the last month for the University of Iowa. U. Seeing
Speaker 1: Spentially get pinned and his mom lose her mind on
Speaker 1: the in the stands was lovely, and watching Caitlin Clark
Speaker 1: get humbled was just delicious. And that's that's coming from
Speaker 1: a Minnesota fan, so I'll make sure those Iowa fans
Speaker 1: know who this is coming from. The worst is Karl
Speaker 1: Anthony Towns completely not showing up in a muscling game
Speaker 1: last night. Just just an absolute brutal performance. All right, well,
Speaker 1: thank you DJ Carl Anthony. Wow, I didn't think we
Speaker 1: were gonna get a Carl Anthony Towns My worst of
Speaker 1: the weekend. Yeah, I didn't think we were gonna get
Speaker 1: that this early in the show. Um, how about the
Speaker 1: Portland Trailblazers. The Blazers didn't have four starters. They were
Speaker 1: nineteen and a half point underdogs. They beat the Timberwolves
Speaker 1: one oh seven, one oh five, So the win matches
Speaker 1: the NBA's largest upset against the point spread since nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety two. That's when the Magic beat the Bulls. They
Speaker 1: were twenty one point underdogs undoing day start out of
Speaker 1: the day stut day. This is the start of the day.
Speaker 1: Stat of the Day brought you by Panini America, the
Speaker 1: official trading cards and NFTs of the Dan Patrick Show.
Speaker 1: I reached out to our stat guy, John Tuvey, and
Speaker 1: I said Caitlyn Clark's average three pointer was right around
Speaker 1: twenty six feet. NBA players averaging at least three three
Speaker 1: pointers per game with the average make twenty six or
Speaker 1: more feet. Dame Lillard is over twenty seven, almost twenty
Speaker 1: seven and a half feet. Then it's LaMelo Ball at
Speaker 1: just over twenty seven feet. Steph Curry is a little
Speaker 1: less twenty six point six. Let's see who's in there.
Speaker 1: Donovan Donovan Mitchell, I think has had three consecutive games
Speaker 1: with at least forty points. He shoots here's three pointers
Speaker 1: around twenty six point three. Fred Van Vleet is just
Speaker 1: over twenty six. So Caitlyn Clark is in rarefied air
Speaker 1: taking those jumpers, and those are most of the time
Speaker 1: contested three pointers that she's taken. But yesterday started out
Speaker 1: extremely hot in the first quarter and then foul trouble
Speaker 1: and great defense by Lsu. She ended up with thirty,
Speaker 1: But it wasn't a great shooting night with those thirty points.
Speaker 1: All right, best and worst of the weekend. Toddle'll start
Speaker 1: with you best of the weekend, speaking of Caitlin clark
Speaker 1: performance in the Semis against South Carolina to ad best
Speaker 1: with the title game forty one points, six boards, eight assists,
Speaker 1: hawkars over game Cock seventy seven, seventy three. Worst of
Speaker 1: the weekend. Nine of the thirteen NBA games played on
Speaker 1: Friday Night had the winning team scoring at least one
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty one points. Three of those victors had
Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty points at least None of those
Speaker 1: games went into overtime, just four quarters of very questionable defense. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what did Sacramento give up? I think they gave up
Speaker 1: like one hundred and forty two points or something. And
Speaker 1: then I've watched a little bit of the Nuggets against
Speaker 1: the Warriors. Nuggets were down fifteen and they ended up
Speaker 1: sweeping the seasonal series with Golden State. They won by
Speaker 1: two points. And we're coming down to the last week.
Speaker 1: Looks like Joe l Embiad is going to be your MVP,
Speaker 1: even though Yannis got the better of him. Mike Budenholzer,
Speaker 1: of all people, said he thinks that Yannis should be
Speaker 1: the MVP. If he said somebody else, then that would
Speaker 1: be a story. If the bucks head coach said, you know,
Speaker 1: shouldn't the MVP, not the Greek freak, it should be
Speaker 1: Joe Ellenbid. I like that. Well, oh my god, the
Speaker 1: bucks head coach said that Janna should be an MVP.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, that's going out on a limb. Greek freaks
Speaker 1: the best player in the game, but he's not going
Speaker 1: to be the MVP this year. It'll be Joe Bellenbid.
Speaker 1: Let's see, did I h Marvin the best worst the weekend? Sure?
Speaker 1: All right? Best of the weekend? First best Burden Terassi
Speaker 1: on ESPN two. They were great both nights. There was
Speaker 1: one moment, though I don't know if was it Bird
Speaker 1: who said to Terrassi, Caitlin Clark is both of us
Speaker 1: like a great passer and a great scorer. And people
Speaker 1: forget how great Diana Terrassi was. She was must see
Speaker 1: TV and even in the Pros two. But in college
Speaker 1: she was she was a bad, bad dude when she
Speaker 1: got on the floor. What else you best of the weekend?
Speaker 1: Shohyo Tani and Mike Trout back to back home runs.
Speaker 1: Yay Angels one, Yay Paul Best and worst. Okay, this
Speaker 1: is miss might be a double worst for me. Mannix
Speaker 1: Chris Mannox got in my head last week with his
Speaker 1: Laker bravado. He thinks the Lakers because he made good
Speaker 1: points that the Lakers West. Yeah, and he had some
Speaker 1: points like that the top of the West is not
Speaker 1: that tough and someone might knock each other out. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The Lakers are won seven to the last ten, the
Speaker 1: two in a row, I'm sorry, three in a row.
Speaker 1: They're up to the seven seed Golden State. If they
Speaker 1: trip up a little bit, the Lakers can get up
Speaker 1: to the five seed or a sixth seed. Right in
Speaker 1: that mix they're they're really flirting with coming up with
Speaker 1: So I'm lightly buying into it because they're playing well
Speaker 1: and I like their bench. It's very frustrating because then
Speaker 1: I to agree with Mannox. Worst of the weekend the
Speaker 1: Dallas Mavericks. If they don't make the playoffs. They were
Speaker 1: at one point in the season. It's hard to not
Speaker 1: make the playoff. With the new play in format, there
Speaker 1: are ten teams. Five teams don't make, so you have
Speaker 1: a two thirds chance if they don't make the playoffs.
Speaker 1: This could be galactically bad for the Mavericks franchise going forward.
Speaker 1: If Luca starts making decisions about his future and getting
Speaker 1: angry in this offseason, that could be very bad because
Speaker 1: you had this great young player. I have this great
Speaker 1: young player. Well, they had a good team. I thought
Speaker 1: they were one player away, but that player was not
Speaker 1: going to be Kyrie Irving. They could have added another
Speaker 1: supporting player and his supporting cast was good. They were
Speaker 1: they were a balanced team. Now you know that that's
Speaker 1: probably the worst defensive backcourt in the history of the
Speaker 1: NBA with Luca and Kyrie, and they're they're not going
Speaker 1: to beat anybody. They're not a good team. And you
Speaker 1: could see the frustration with Luca because and I don't
Speaker 1: know why that. I thought, oh my god, we got Kyrie. Okay,
Speaker 1: if you had Kyrie with the supporting cast, then I
Speaker 1: would say, all right, you can be dangerous, but you
Speaker 1: roll the dice and are you gonna resign Kyrie after
Speaker 1: what you've seen? Yeah? What drives me crazy is what, man,
Speaker 1: something you've talked about this, Max talked about this. They
Speaker 1: had Jalen Brunson, then they could have kept him. Now
Speaker 1: I know he's expensive, and you think, Okay, he's a
Speaker 1: nice B plus player. That's what you need. You need
Speaker 1: a couple of really nice B plus players around this guy.
Speaker 1: And yet you kind of had it the Mavericks and
Speaker 1: they fell in love with something else, and they could
Speaker 1: have resigned Jalen Brunson twice and then they ended up
Speaker 1: trading him to the Knicks, and he's been wonderful with
Speaker 1: the Knicks. And you had a really good player complimentary
Speaker 1: to Luca, but they had good players on that team
Speaker 1: that made them a good team, a solid team, a
Speaker 1: dangerous team. Kyrie, Yeah, he can get you forty, but
Speaker 1: is he going to be consistent enough? What else is
Speaker 1: he gonna do for you? You're gonna need a lot
Speaker 1: more than that. I don't think you can go into
Speaker 1: the playoffs going, hey, we got Kyrie and Luca and
Speaker 1: they're gonna get eighty points between them. Let me know
Speaker 1: how that works. Uh. Jeff in Florida, Hi Jeff, Hi Dan.
Speaker 1: My best of the weekend is I want to give
Speaker 1: a little credit to my my college, Ashland University in Asheville, Ohio.
Speaker 1: The women's basketball team Division two won the national championship
Speaker 1: over the weekend in Dallas. By the way, they're thirty
Speaker 1: seven and oh this year, as opposed to South Carolina,
Speaker 1: which is thirty six and oh going into the championship.
Speaker 1: This is their third national title in ten years, in
Speaker 1: two twenty. No, no no, no, no, we're good. We're good
Speaker 1: with that. We're good with that. I let it go
Speaker 1: for a vet. No, no, all right, yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: Ashland College women's team. Congratulations winning the national title. Kind
Speaker 1: of mess with our next segment because we're going to
Speaker 1: really dive into it. Mavericks are now five games under
Speaker 1: five hundred. They're eleventh in the Western Conference. They're behind
Speaker 1: the Oklahoma City thunder who are rebuilding. They may have
Speaker 1: their number one draft pick and Chad Holmgren. They three
Speaker 1: and seven ten games stretch and it doesn't look like
Speaker 1: they're going to turn things around. Magice. Oklahoma City, they're rebuilding.
Speaker 1: They got all these draft picks, and you look around
Speaker 1: and you're like, what's going on here? Dallas is not rebuilding. Yeah, Marv,
Speaker 1: Oklahoma City, that's your pick for next year, right, That
Speaker 1: your team next year. That's my team next year. They're
Speaker 1: in a good spot. That's that's my big surprise next year. Yes, Polly,
Speaker 1: I have an NBA question. I want to ask you,
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna save it. Oh is this after the break? Yeah,
Speaker 1: because I've been thinking about it, not all weekend, part
Speaker 1: of the weekend. All right, we'll take a break. We're
Speaker 1: back after this Dan Patrick show. Weather was nice this
Speaker 1: weekend and that meant I brought out the pxgs. Let

Speaker 1: hit the driver. Then they hear the other clubs and
Speaker 1: they're like, okay, all right, so let we've got a
Speaker 1: different weapon in the bag. Yes, I do. Jen six

Speaker 1: We'll have some details for you coming up tomorrow. I'm
Speaker 1: the latest batch four years ago today. Anybody want to
Speaker 1: I want to weigh in on what happened four years
Speaker 1: ago today and see tournament related No. Uh, somebody cut
Speaker 1: down the nets last show at the Old Man Cave.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, cut down the nets last show at the
Speaker 1: Old Man cavett You did not No, I did not know.
Speaker 1: You had never used a pair of scissors before. Well,
Speaker 1: you didn't have lefty scissors. For me, that to me,
Speaker 1: do you have lefty scissors? You couldn't lets. You couldn't
Speaker 1: even switch hands. You couldn't even pull it down. Even
Speaker 1: like just just the fact that you got up the ladder.
Speaker 1: I thought it was impressive. Yeah, and then you're up
Speaker 1: there and you're when you give your serious face, it's
Speaker 1: always so it's very frustrated that I couldn't cut it
Speaker 1: and then your hand was shaking because you couldn't cut
Speaker 1: down the nets. And I'm thinking once again, you graduated
Speaker 1: second in a class of six hundred. I did you
Speaker 1: have no street smart sweatsoever? Very little? Yes you do? Yes,
Speaker 1: no hand eye coord No. Well, I don't think you
Speaker 1: need a hand eye coordination to cut down the net
Speaker 1: lefty scissors. I've never heard somebody go man. Hand eye
Speaker 1: coordination came in handy cutting down the nets there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is the question for Frizzy. They didn't have any
Speaker 1: righty scissors that you used. I use only righty scissors
Speaker 1: because growing up they weren't lefty scissors. I have lefty
Speaker 1: scissors at home, and I have no problem on the
Speaker 1: rare occasional use scissors. But there was I needed something. Well,
Speaker 1: I need to be AMBI dextrous or something. Okay, you
Speaker 1: got to blame the scissors. Yes, it took so long.
Speaker 1: It was like ten shining minutes, te shining. I don't
Speaker 1: think anything was shining. I had the weather for you
Speaker 1: in AUGUSTA. Okay, do you want bad news or bad news?
Speaker 1: Oh pm, thunderstorms. It's gonna be warm and then it
Speaker 1: cools off its eighty six in Augusta, Georgia on I
Speaker 1: think it's Wednesday unseasonably warm? Yeah, Part three contest on Wednesday,
Speaker 1: Thursday night, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, over a fifty percent
Speaker 1: chance of rain. He had to be the bear of that.
Speaker 1: What's your NBA question you have for us? I've been
Speaker 1: thinking about this a lot. Victor went Baianna seems to
Speaker 1: be the biggest pro prospect. I don't know, maybe since
Speaker 1: Yao Ming, I can't remember a big man that this
Speaker 1: sure of a thing. Even Zion was not this big.
Speaker 1: Why doesn't a guy like him? Would a guy like
Speaker 1: him ever consider dictating the draft and saying I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna go here like Eli Manning did and John Elway did,
Speaker 1: both sure things that the teams had the best chance
Speaker 1: for him are the Houston Rockets of San Antonio Spurs,
Speaker 1: the Detroit Pistons of Charlotte Hornets. None of them are powerhouses.
Speaker 1: Spurs have some history of being successful, though, especially European players. Well,
Speaker 1: why wouldn't a guy like him pull that move? If
Speaker 1: you read about it, Kobe Bryant did, and Kobe was
Speaker 1: not as big as Victor went baiana He basically his
Speaker 1: people told the Nets, don't draft me, or I'll go
Speaker 1: somewhere else. Yeah, if you were a guy like Victor,
Speaker 1: when would you consider dictating this? This is the one
Speaker 1: time you get a chance to I don't want to
Speaker 1: go in with something you know, a label already on
Speaker 1: me like that, like you're too good to play, or
Speaker 1: you know, every one of those cities that he's saying
Speaker 1: he doesn't want to go to every time he goes
Speaker 1: to that city, then he's going to hear it from
Speaker 1: the fans. But what people don't understand about Eli, the
Speaker 1: Chargers didn't want Eli. I was told by somebody in
Speaker 1: the Manning family that the Chargers didn't didn't want him.
Speaker 1: They wanted to trade. And that's why I think Eli
Speaker 1: was unfairly blamed in that situation. But Alway didn't want
Speaker 1: to stay. He didn't want to go to Baltimore. But
Speaker 1: at that point Baltimore wasn't a good franchise and he
Speaker 1: didn't want to go there. And then he tried to
Speaker 1: use his leverage with playing for the Yankees, the single
Speaker 1: A team and what Oneonta I think, and got traded
Speaker 1: who was at Chris Hinton, Yes, the offensive lineman was
Speaker 1: traded and then nice career. Yeah, nice. Yeah, But then
Speaker 1: there was a couple other draft picks. Now, if you
Speaker 1: were trading the rights to John Elway, now you're gonna
Speaker 1: get a whole lot more than Chris Hinton and a number.
Speaker 1: Did they get Hinton and a number another first round
Speaker 1: draft pick? I don't think so. I think a Hinton
Speaker 1: was that pick. They had to get more for Jake
Speaker 1: out more. But I don't think they got a second
Speaker 1: first round draft pick. I gotta checked that, okay, But yeah,
Speaker 1: that stayed with Elway for a while. But I don't
Speaker 1: see Victor wamba Yama saying, you know, I don't want
Speaker 1: to play in San Antonio or Portland or and he
Speaker 1: might be a smaller market type player. He might like,
Speaker 1: you know, like Tim Duncan flourished, he loved San Antonio.
Speaker 1: He liked being in a smaller market. Yeah. Point. So
Speaker 1: the Eli Manning trade with the Chargers, here's where the
Speaker 1: Chargers got out of it. They ended up trading. They
Speaker 1: ended up getting Philip Rivers, borderline Hall of Famer. They
Speaker 1: got with the other picks, they got a kicker named
Speaker 1: Nate Kating who I think it was out of Iowa. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's right. Nice career. They got Sean Merriman with the
Speaker 1: other first round pick they got, so he had a
Speaker 1: very The first five years of Sean Marion was top notch,
Speaker 1: and then they got a fifth round pick which was nothing. Okay,
Speaker 1: I would say that trade was worth it. I mean
Speaker 1: both sides got what they wanted out of that. I mean,
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers numbers are probably better than Eli mannings, or
Speaker 1: at least close. He just never wanted a championship. Obviously,
Speaker 1: Sean Merriman lights out was great for a five year
Speaker 1: run there. All right, let's see Brian in Ohio. Hi, Brian,
Speaker 1: what's on your mind today? Morning? Duh? First time, long
Speaker 1: time six five. I got three vests. So the weekend
Speaker 1: one is Zach Eaty collecting all their accolades for Player
Speaker 1: of the Year yea Uber two. As a boiler Maker fan,
Speaker 1: it's awesome to see coach Katie go to the Nay
Speaker 1: Smith Hall of Fame. And my best day is I
Speaker 1: got to watch my son and his high school choir
Speaker 1: sing the national anthem at the Cavs game last night.
Speaker 1: Oh I'm good. I'll congrats there, Brian, and I got
Speaker 1: this word last night. Bob Knight was admitted to a
Speaker 1: hospital Bloomington, Indiana. And when they start to send out
Speaker 1: a note to Indiana alum to pray for coach Night,
Speaker 1: then you know it's obviously not good. But don't know
Speaker 1: anything else about that. I know that we haven't heard
Speaker 1: from him in a long long time, and somebody who's
Speaker 1: close to the situation has kept me informed on it.
Speaker 1: For some reason, I ended up with a good relationship
Speaker 1: with coach Knight because he hated Sports Center for a
Speaker 1: long long time, and probably rightfully so with somehow sometimes
Speaker 1: how he was described on you know during games, getting technicals,
Speaker 1: thrown a chair, those kind of things, grabbing his sunstairs,
Speaker 1: he all those things. But when he went to Texas
Speaker 1: Tech and Jay Billis did an interview and that's when
Speaker 1: coach Knight was He said, who should I like up
Speaker 1: there at Sports Center? And Jay Billis said, well, Dan
Speaker 1: Patrick knows the game. He goes tell him to call me.
Speaker 1: So Billis comes back and he goes, Coach Knight wants
Speaker 1: you to call him. I go, oh, no, He goes, no,
Speaker 1: he wants to. He wants to talk to you. It
Speaker 1: came on and did an interview with him, did an
Speaker 1: interview on Sports Center with him. Surprised him one day
Speaker 1: and we had both Shechem Beckler on and Bo was
Speaker 1: Bob Knight's idol. Loved him the Michigan coach. We had
Speaker 1: Tony LaRussa on with Bob Knight one time, so he
Speaker 1: was very appreciative. But Coach Knight in a hospital from
Speaker 1: what I'm told in Bloomington, Indian. All right, Final hour
Speaker 1: coming up. We'll get to more phone calls as well,
Speaker 1: and we'll talk to Holly Rowe did a wonderful job
