He's he's one of 85 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 4: our hardest workers and he really truly loves the game, 86 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 4: and that's why he's having the success that he's having. 87 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,839 Speaker 4: And then Ku Davis, who was playing the year in 88 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 4: our conference, who didn't make any all conference teams last season, 89 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 4: and then you know, he came back and he worked 90 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 4: his butt off and you know he was player of 91 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 4: the Year and he's another little hard worker. Like both 92 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 4: those guys, they come in and they post the. 93 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 8: Game the right way speedy. 94 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 3: I'm curious because you mentioned your freshman guard there and 95 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 3: I've seen I don't know if it's just college basketball 96 00:04:56,120 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 3: getting more of my attention again or just sports fans attention, 97 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 3: but I feel like there are a lot of like 98 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 3: really good players in places you wouldn't even think of. 99 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 3: And I'm watching a lot of highlights and I'm like, 100 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 3: that's an NBA talented player right there. I'm just curious 101 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 3: from your perspective coaching at a school like Hofstra, but 102 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 3: seeing so many others, have you seen just more basketball talent. 103 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 5: Just more spread out? 104 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 3: And is that just a factor of Hey, basketball is 105 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 3: super popular, or do you think maybe nil or something 106 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 3: like that has something to do with it. 107 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 4: I think I will NIL have a lot to do 108 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 4: with it. It has a lot to do with it. 109 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 4: You know, these kids gravitateds was anybody who gives me 110 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 4: the most money. So if you're a school that has 111 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 4: a lot of money, you do be successful. You get 112 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 4: really good play that you know in the past you 113 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 4: might not have been able to get it. 114 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 3: Also curious because you got got Alabama in the first 115 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 3: round there, Alabama famously high scoring team, they are going 116 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 3: to be without one of their better scorers there, but 117 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 3: your guys, I think it's top twenty nationally when you 118 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 3: get to tournaments like this, when you get to this 119 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 3: type of preparation, which one of those normally wins out 120 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 3: because obviously in the NBA people talk NBA defense wins championships. 121 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 4: Well, I hope it's defense. They have a high paying offense. Uh, 122 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 4: they like to get up and down the part and 123 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 4: playing really fast like the ship the three. So hopefully, uh, 124 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,359 Speaker 4: they're having an off night, you know all day come Friday. 125 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: What's the thing you have to stop Alabama from doing 126 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: in order to advance in this tournament? 127 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 4: Shooting the freetball? We gottata. We got to go down 128 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 4: their temple because they like to play extremely fast, So 129 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 4: we gotta play at al tempo and not try to 130 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 4: beat them at sark gaines and then after that keep 131 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 4: them off the glass because they're they're longer in athletic 132 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 4: than us. You know, we gotta hit them before they 133 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 4: hit us and then limit them to one shot. 134 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 9: Speedy. 135 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 7: Is there anything that you have to do different as 136 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 7: a coach going into this game knowing that for your team, 137 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 7: for your players, this is the biggest game that they're 138 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 7: going to play in, and just trying to prepare them 139 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 7: for that moment, have. 140 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 4: To do anything different if not the first time we 141 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 4: played against a high major opponent, you know, bigger stage. 142 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 4: But my guys are gamers.

So 341 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 10: it's fun to be able to continue this journey with him. 342 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 1: Ran. 343 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 3: This has been driving me crazy ever since Perdomo struck 344 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 3: out against the United States the other day, where people 345 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 3: are discussing that you have to fight that ball off, 346 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 3: you have to with two strikes swing at anything near 347 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 3: the plate. My thought process on that is the only 348 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:06,239 Speaker 3: reason that's really a thing is because you're saying to yourself, well, 349 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,440 Speaker 3: this umpire might be a dummy. He might not be 350 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 3: able to see that this is a ball, right, and 351 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 3: so I have to swing at that. But if you 352 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 3: have an eye, if you can discern what's the ball 353 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 3: on a strike and you let that go, you have 354 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 3: done your job. 355 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 5: So you tell me, should he like, let's. 356 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 3: Say it was nineteen eighty and there's no idea of 357 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 3: abs or anything like that, should he have swung at that? 358 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 3: Because I contend no, you just got to trust that 359 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 3: the umpire is gonna help good and do the right thing. 360 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 10: Well, the first thing is is that you know the 361 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 10: umpires are humantunate, and we talk about this a lot, 362 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 10: where the action is happening so fast and it's it's, 363 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 10: you know, less than a blink of an eye to 364 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 10: where these guys have to try to make you know, 365 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 10: in some instance is kind of an educated guess, right 366 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 10: because you know the ones that are right there, right 367 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 10: down the middle and you know, belt high or whatnot, 368 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 10: those those are going to be pure strikes ball like 369 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 10: that where it could be borderline where it's like where's 370 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 10: the bottom of the zone. You know, this year for 371 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 10: the season coming up, you know, fortunately we'll have a 372 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 10: BS and that would be something to where Perdomo would 373 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 10: be able to. 374 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 8: Go back and he would he would tap on that. 375 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 10: I will I will say there were calls, you know, 376 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 10: both ways, you know, against both teams. That one obviously 377 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 10: is you know, having been a guy that's struck out 378 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 10: to end the game and into a big postseason game. 379 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 8: It's, uh, it's tough because. 380 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 10: You're you're sitting there and you have a knowledge of 381 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 10: what your strike zone is and where the game is. 382 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 8: Today. 383 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,160 Speaker 10: These guys with all the analytics and all the information 384 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,400 Speaker 10: that they're given, you know, one of the things they're 385 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 10: told to do is not chase. So they have a 386 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 10: very good knowledge of the zone. So for him to 387 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 10: not go after that pitch, that's whatever his zone was, 388 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 10: And I mean, it's it's a tough one. 389 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 8: It's it's a very tough one. 390 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,040 Speaker 10: But you know the umpires are gonna make mistakes, and 391 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 10: you know that that's that's one now where you know, 392 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 10: moving forward, maybe the next WBC has the ABS and 393 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 10: we don't even have that problem. 394 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 5: But he sleeps fine at night, right, he knows he 395 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:12,199 Speaker 5: did the right thing. 396 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 3: Like I don't know if that's happened to you in 397 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 3: a decent spot or a big spot or whatever, but 398 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 3: you got to be comfortable with your decision there, right, 399 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,200 Speaker 3: because you know who messed up and it wasn't you 400 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 3: who demo. 401 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 10: Yeah, no, he don't sleep with No, he's not sleeping. 402 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 10: They lost the game. 403 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 8: Yeah that's right. Yeah, yeah, he's not sleeping good at all. 404 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 8: He's not sleeping good at all. I mean, you know, 405 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 8: even if. 406 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 10: He's stayed within his zone, he stayed within what he 407 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 10: was trying to do in his approach, and to have 408 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 10: something like that happen, I mean, yeah, you're you're you're 409 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 10: not sleeping one because you lost the game, and two 410 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 10: because you know you feel like you might have been 411 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 10: cheated or robbed of an opportunity to continue to try 412 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 10: to keep the ball game going. 413 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 7: Ryan, you had a thirteen year career in Philadelphia the 414 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 7: entire time. What does it like going through a slump 415 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 7: in Philadelphia with those fans sleepless nights. 416 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 10: I mean, wow, I'll tell you what, man, it's it's 417 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 10: Philadelphia is one of those places where the fans, the 418 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 10: passion of the fans, they want you to do well, 419 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 10: They want you to do well. They want you to 420 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 10: do so well that it hurts, and then when it 421 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,880 Speaker 10: hurts you lash out sometimes, you know, but they. 422 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 8: Want a blue collar effort. 423 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 10: And I think like, as long as you can go 424 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 10: out and try to give a blue collar effort, they 425 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 10: understand it. I mean in years past, you know, you 426 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 10: got the whole thing with throwing batteries at snowballs at 427 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 10: Santa Claus and you know, you get booed here and 428 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 10: there what not. And then the turnaround, you know when 429 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 10: when Trey Turner kind of came in and he got 430 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 10: off to a slow start, and you know, the crowd 431 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 10: decided to cheer them, you know, and then he was 432 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 10: able to turn it around. So, I mean, it's it 433 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 10: has its moments at times, but you got to understand, Hey, 434 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 10: that's what happened when you sign a permission slip and 435 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 10: you're playing in Philadelphia. You play in that Northeast, you 436 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,239 Speaker 10: got to grow some thick skin. And I say, if 437 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:08,439 Speaker 10: you can play in the Northeast starting your season, your 438 00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 10: career out, then you can go play anywhere. 439 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,159 Speaker 1: Speaking of guys playing in the Northeast, what do you 440 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:17,439 Speaker 1: say to Yankee fans who are complaining that Aaron Judge 441 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: is not nearly as emotional or fired up to play 442 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: for the Yankees as he is for Team USA. Yankee 443 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 1: fans want to see it all season, Ryan, You know. 444 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 8: What, maybe we will. 445 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 10: Yeah, maybe this is maybe this is what gets them going, 446 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 10: you know, for for for those games, you know, he's 447 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 10: just it's one hundred and sixty two games, and with 448 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 10: this WBC, I think it's what it's maybe more like twelve, 449 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 10: you know, like seven, eight, ten games, something like that. 450 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:55,880 Speaker 8: So it's hopefully for the Yankee fans. 451 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 10: And for Aaron Judge, you know, the emotion that he's 452 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 10: showing out here, he'll carry it over, you know, because 453 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 10: this is a postseason, preseason, yes, the preseason. Yes, you 454 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 10: know what I mean, All these games mean they mean something. 455 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 10: There there's there's there's so much more to it, and 456 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,640 Speaker 10: all these countries and all these players are putting all 457 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 10: this emotion into it, which I think is an amazing 458 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 10: for the game. We saw it in the World Series 459 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 10: last year, you know, where you know, you had the 460 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:25,440 Speaker 10: Dodgers and you had the Blue Jays going at it 461 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 10: last year, and you could see the emotion from both teams, 462 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:32,719 Speaker 10: and it's just just carrying over into this World Baseball Classic, 463 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,880 Speaker 10: which hopefully, you know it'll carry over into the season. 464 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:37,439 Speaker 10: But you got one hundred and sixty two games, man, 465 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 10: one hundred sixty You can't. You can't be like that 466 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 10: every single day. 467 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 1: You got to yourself. 468 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:45,439 Speaker 8: Yeah, you gotta pace yourself, pace yourself. 469 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 1: Did you find it ridiculous like we did that? The 470 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:56,159 Speaker 1: Italian team, all of them were from America, but. 471 00:22:56,240 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 11: They represented though they represented, they did they they put 472 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 11: they put Italy on their back, you know, and they 473 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 11: did a hell of a job. 474 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:08,640 Speaker 8: Man, they did a hell of job. 475 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 10: I mean, there's there's usually that one Cinderella, and the 476 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 10: Italian team was that team. And they played, they played hard, 477 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 10: they played they played the game the right way. That's 478 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 10: that's the great part about it is you're seeing different 479 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 10: ways of how teams are going about playing. And you know, 480 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 10: Italy was able to win their pool, playing their way right. 481 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 10: You know, Venezuela obviously is one of those teams where 482 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 10: you've got to, uh, you have to put them away 483 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:39,400 Speaker 10: because that team, if you let them hang around, they're 484 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,760 Speaker 10: going to find a way to to to hurt you 485 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:44,919 Speaker 10: and they and they did that against Japan and they 486 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 10: did that against Italy the. 487 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 3: Other night, Ryan, you and Chase Sutley were in an 488 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 3: episode of It's Always Sonny.
