Have you 102 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 4: seen like a seismic change in the last say five years, 103 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 4: Like when when was there just a flip that? 104 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: That's a great question. 105 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 2: I actually wrote a story last year, a little column 106 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,840 Speaker 2: at Eugene about the type of kids were seen. 107 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, it changed definitely for my time. When I was 108 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: falling in college golf in the late eighties. 109 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 2: To probably the right around two thousand, you started to 110 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 2: see kids that didn't look like golfers. I always say 111 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:13,840 Speaker 2: that there was a year, and I think it might 112 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 2: have been the year Texas A and M won the 113 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 2: national championship at Inverness. That team, a few of those 114 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 2: players look like middle linebackers. And then you know they 115 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 2: they had a knack for having you know, three four 116 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 2: kids that just if they were standing in the weight room, 117 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: you wouldn't have thought they were golfers. And that goes 118 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 2: a lot of teams have guys like that. So yes, 119 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 2: there's definitely been a change in the type of athletes. 120 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 2: I mean when they're walking around out here, you don't 121 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:39,919 Speaker 2: see many kids. 122 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: That don't look athletic. They're athletic looking kids, and they 123 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: do they hit it, they hit. 124 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 2: It, they pound it, and then they just go get it. 125 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 2: They don't there's not a point a point B game. 126 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 3: Really. 127 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 1: I mean I shouldn't say that. 128 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 2: There's still you know, there's course management stuff, but they 129 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 2: ain't afraid to just rip it. 130 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 3: Yeah. 131 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 4: I think that's you know, one of my big takeaways 132 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 4: from this week is how these kids are. But then also, 133 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 4: like he talked to these kids, in their schedule, I mean, 134 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 4: they're their daily schedules. These kids, you know, there are 135 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 4: professional golfers who go to a couple hours of class 136 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 4: a day, and you know, they. 137 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 3: Work and they are working their tails. 138 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 4: Off because they obviously are you know, they're going to class, 139 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 4: their studying, and but the you know, listening to them 140 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 4: talk about how they do. You know, they have body work. 141 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 4: You know, they get they're always making sure that their. 142 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:25,719 Speaker 3: Body is right. 143 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 4: They're working out, and then they're spending four or five 144 00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 4: hours a day practicing. I mean, I imagine that this this 145 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 4: whole aspect of the game has changed dramatically. 146 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 2: We can thank Tiger Woods for that, I mean because seriously, 147 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not sure if we would have saw 148 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 2: that movement. We probably would have eventually, but he changed that. 149 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 2: He you know, he was a game changer. He's like 150 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 2: Wilt Chamberlain, you know, in basketball. I mean, he changed 151 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 2: the way people approach the way they play golf, the 152 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 2: way they prepare for golf. 153 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: And that's that's what these kids do now. 154 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 2: I mean back in the day, I mean, you know, 155 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 2: college teams maybe in the eighties, I don't know if 156 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 2: all of them had the strength the strength programs, the 157 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 2: you know, the water workouts, the yoga, the stretching. The 158 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 2: stuff that they do now is very much part and 159 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 2: it used to be just kind of an elective thing. 160 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 2: Now it's very much part of their daily routine. And 161 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 2: it carries over into the pro pro tours. 162 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's just a launching pad. 163 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 4: And obviously we're seeing with like John Rahm and a 164 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 4: lot of more young guys making an impact quicker on tour, 165 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 4: and I think a lot of it has to do 166 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 4: with the development and the way these kids prepare out here, 167 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 4: you know, getting ready with the programs. 168 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 3: You know, these kids are hitting the ground running. They 169 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 3: they kind of. 170 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 4: Know what to, you know, how to you know, their 171 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 4: lives are now a lot on the road. They're traveling there, 172 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 4: they're starting to learn how to balance life on the road. 173 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 4: Obviously they're in a team setting, but you know that 174 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 4: it's it's these kids treat this game like professionals due 175 00:07:55,880 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 4: to a certain extent. So you know, for the people 176 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 4: that are a little bit maybe less uh in the weeds, 177 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 4: like uh me and not so much me compared to you, 178 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 4: Like who are you know, maybe uh three or four 179 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 4: names that everybody. 180 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 3: Should know on the college golf circuit. 181 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 2: Well, obviously it starts with Maverickmeally. You know, he's the 182 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 2: one kid who's been around a while, you know, senior 183 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 2: now at Stanford. He's the kid who you know, followed 184 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 2: in the footsteps of Patrick Rodgers and and and the 185 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 2: kid that you know you expect to be out there 186 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 2: at some point whether or not. 187 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 1: You know, there's always been a lot of Tobacca. 188 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 2: If he's even gonna turn pro just because he's I 189 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 2: guess he's just so smart. He could just jump into 190 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 2: the real world and and change people's lives. But uh, 191 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 2: he's he's the one kid. Obviously, Sam Burns is a tremendous, 192 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 2: tremendous talent. Uh, if you've had a chance to watch 193 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 2: him play, he's one that we're expecting to announce he's 194 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 2: gonna be turning pro after the championship or at least 195 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 2: sometime this summer. 196 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: He's he's one. 197 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 2: The other thing, I'm not sure that we we're gonna 198 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 2: see a lot of the this this class jump right 199 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 2: out there. There's there's a few more players in the 200 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 2: Wyndham Clark obviously he's been up there that had a good, 201 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 2: tremendous year. There's there's some kids that I that haven't 202 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 2: played as well as I thought they might have. But 203 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 2: I'm not sure how deep this class is really, you know. 204 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 2: But but there's always going to be a few names. 205 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 2: And then there's always the names. I mean, you know, 206 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 2: j T. Poston, who's out there now? You know the kids, like, 207 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 2: there's gonna be a kid or two that come out 208 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 2: of this group somewhere down the line that that pop 209 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 2: out there and and turn heads and get and play well. 210 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 3: So you know, JT. 211 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,439 Speaker 4: Post is one of my favorite stories of the rookies 212 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 4: on tour just because he you know, he went under recruited. 213 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 4: He ended up winning the state championships. Then he got recruited, 214 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 4: but he'd already signed with with Western Carolina, and you know, 215 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 4: he became the first kid in Western Carolina history to 216 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 4: make it to the NCAA's right, So, who would you 217 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 4: say is kind of of these players, like maybe a 218 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 4: guy that goes to a smaller school that you wouldn't 219 00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 4: be surprised to see make it out on tour. 220 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,839 Speaker 2: That's a tough one because that's so hard to predict. 221 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,679 Speaker 2: I remember I used to. I used to every year 222 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 2: at the end of the year, I'd come up with 223 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 2: a list of names of like, you know, five or 224 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 2: six guys that I thought we can't miss kids. And 225 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 2: I remember looking back, I haven't done it in a while, 226 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 2: but I remember looking back at that list and I 227 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 2: was like, huh, and none of those kids have made it. 228 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,839 Speaker 2: I mean, so it's really really hard to predict. I mean, 229 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 2: especially when you start digging down deep. The first kid 230 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 2: that will jump out in that from a small school 231 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 2: and I'm not sure if he's a small name but 232 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 2: Dawson Armstrong, you know, he's the first kid. 233 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: He kind of fits that bill. He fits that bill 234 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:34,079 Speaker 1: of the. 235 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 2: Of those kids, you know, like a JT post, And 236 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,079 Speaker 2: so that would probably be. 237 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,719 Speaker 1: The one kid everyone would kind of look at it. 238 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: Who's who's playing college golf? 239 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 4: Now, Yeah, Dawson Armstrong. So he plays at lipscumb You know, 240 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 4: what's the story? 241 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:48,319 Speaker 3: Why did he You. 242 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: Know, I think it was the same thing. I think 243 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: he was a little bit underrecruited. 244 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 2: And I'm not exactly sure on why he ended up 245 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 2: at Lipscomb, but I mean I'm assuming it was underrecruited. 246 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 2: And and you know, and a lot of kids they 247 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:01,679 Speaker 2: hit their peaks different times. I mean, a lot of 248 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,719 Speaker 2: kids end up get getting to college and they don't 249 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 2: pan out either. 250 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, I grew three inches in college and now a 251 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,439 Speaker 4: sudden hit the ball for forty yards further as a 252 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 4: different player, exactly. 253 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 3: So you know, in today's today's a pivotal day. 254 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 4: They were cutting to top fifteen, and then tomorrow we 255 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 4: cut to the top eight. You know, a lot of 256 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 4: the big favorites have moved up and into position. A 257 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 4: few you know, like you know, Stanford is probably the 258 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 4: biggest surprise out outside the top fifteen. 259 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 3: You know, what are your big takeaways from the tournament 260 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 3: so far? 261 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,680 Speaker 2: I think if we just talk about the biggest headline 262 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 2: right now, I think is the fact that these kids 263 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 2: are are scoring so well. 264 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's probably the best. 265 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 2: Sometimes in golf, unlike other sports, the golf course becomes 266 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 2: the story, and it happens all the time in the Major, 267 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 2: especially early on in the week, until we get to 268 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 2: the day when they actually crown the champion. 269 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 1: I think so far, I think the story has really 270 00:11:58,559 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: been the golf course. 271 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 2: I mean, because it was so so difficult during the 272 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 2: women's event. And I still don't think that they they 273 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 2: failed on the setup on the women, even though they've 274 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 2: probably played the par threes collectively too long. They probably 275 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 2: could have done some few things with some te location. 276 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 2: There's some t spots and some whole locations to make 277 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 2: it easier. 278 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: I still will say that. 279 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 2: I think that the conditions were the biggest reason for 280 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 2: the high scoring for the women. But for the men, 281 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 2: I think what happened, and I could be a little 282 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 2: bit off on this, they could have had a lot 283 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 2: of this set prior to coming here because they were 284 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 2: afraid it was going to be so difficult. I mean, 285 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 2: that's what all we talked about. The rough's going to 286 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 2: be high, the greens are going to be fast. They're 287 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 2: small greens for some of the clubs. 288 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 1: That you have in your hand. 289 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 2: I think the NCAA committee wisely aired on let's see 290 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:50,559 Speaker 2: some red numbers. 291 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,559 Speaker 1: I mean, look at these scores. I mean, I mean 292 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 1: you just look at you know. I wouldn't have I. 293 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 2: Honestly, Andy, I would have thought that there might only 294 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 2: been one or two teams under par at this point 295 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 2: in time in the tournament. And that is probably the 296 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 2: biggest story right now, is that there their place. Well, 297 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 2: I would have thought that today they would have tightened 298 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 2: the screws a little bit, done some things to make 299 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 2: it a little more difficult. 300 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 4: But I mean the flags were in tough positions today. 301 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 4: I was out there, and I mean like it was 302 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 4: really impressive. I mean, Rico Joe he had at seven 303 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 4: under through eleven, he almost was eight. I mean he 304 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,079 Speaker 4: just missed the eagle butt. But you know, I think 305 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 4: the biggest thing, and we see it week in week 306 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 4: out on the PGA Tour, is that when the golf 307 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 4: course is soft, you know this place has taken a 308 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 4: lot of rain, which you know, it makes the fairways soft, 309 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 4: so they're easier to hit. You can be a little 310 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 4: bit more aggressive off the team because these fairways that 311 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 4: your ball's not bounding through into the rough. And then 312 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 4: also likewise on the greens, they're very receptive. You know, 313 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:51,439 Speaker 4: these the when the conditions are soft, every golf course 314 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 4: gets lit up now on on tour. I mean even 315 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:58,080 Speaker 4: to extent of Oakmont had record low scores last year 316 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 4: because of how soft it was, So you know this, 317 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 4: I think that plays a part in it. But also 318 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:08,559 Speaker 4: I do agree like they haven't played all the tea's back, 319 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 4: which is you know, really good, you know outside of 320 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 4: you know, the seventeenth hole. No hole is really just 321 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 4: you know, maybe the seventeenth hole might be the whole 322 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 4: of any hole I've ever seen with more just massive 323 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 4: numbers from from guys high on the leader board. 324 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: It's the seventeenth hole. I mean, I I mean. 325 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 2: I coached for three years, I caddied for a couple. 326 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 2: I could be crazy and I say this, but I wouldn't. 327 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 2: I'd play this hole. I would not hit driver. 328 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 1: Off the tee. I'd put in the fairway. 329 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 2: I would literally wedge it to another spot, and then 330 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 2: from that spot I would wedge it back onto the 331 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 2: green and try to make four that way. If not, 332 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 2: I'm walking out of there with a five. Yeah, I 333 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 2: just I mean going going at it from two hundred, 334 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 2: from one eighty to two ten. 335 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: There's there's little room for air on that hole. 336 00:14:59,120 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 3: Yeah. 337 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 2: So, and I I think, you know, in match play, 338 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 2: that's seventeen eighteen is going to be a heck of. 339 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: A finish because you have well, he's starting the sixteen. 340 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 5: Even fifteen fifteen is not playing. When we actually played 341 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 5: the other fifteen, I thought was going to be a 342 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 5: much more difficult hole for them. What it is, it's yeah, 343 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 5: it's and there's enough room. 344 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 3: From the water to the green. 345 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 2: So really starting sixteen seventeen eighteen, that could be that 346 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 2: could be an electric finish in match play. 347 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 4: Getting through that stretch one or two under pars is 348 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 4: just unbelievable playing. 349 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 3: It's it's interesting. You know, I was watching Nick Hardy today. 350 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 4: He birdied, made a great birdie on sixteen, and then 351 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 4: he he powered seventeen, and then he gets to eighteen 352 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 4: and sure enough he gets caught on the downslope and 353 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 4: he makes an eight. 354 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 3: You know, it's like. 355 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 4: That you thought he got through the tough part one under. Oh, 356 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 4: he's going to finish two under. It's going to be 357 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 4: a heck of a finish, ends up making an eight. 358 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 4: I think that's one of the things with this golf 359 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 4: course is that as soon as you lose your focus 360 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 4: or get out of position and make a you know, 361 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 4: an aggressive play from out of position, you bring in 362 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 4: double triple, quadruple bogie, even on almost any hole out here, 363 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 4: which is it? You know, that's what this leaderboard can 364 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 4: change so rapidly as they look to go from now 365 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 4: fifteen teams down to eighteen. So you know, as it stands, 366 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 4: you know, Vanderbilts in the lead at eighteen under, and 367 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 4: then you know there is some bunch up until I'd say, 368 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 4: what do you say Florida State at twelve, which is 369 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 4: they're in twelfth place at flour under, right, and all 370 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 4: these teams are kind of fighting for this top eight 371 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 4: position to make into match play. You know, who would 372 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 4: you say of the teams currently out that you expect 373 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 4: to get into this top eight. 374 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: That's a tough question. 375 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 2: I just wrote my column today two years ago at 376 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 2: the Concession No teams from the top eight went into 377 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 2: the top for no teams from nine to fifteen went 378 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 2: into the top eight. 379 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 1: But last year we had three teams. 380 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 2: The difference last year from ninth place to fifteenth place 381 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 2: was just nine shots. We're gonna see a little bit 382 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 2: wider gap this year, probably more like fifteen shots from 383 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 2: all the way down. But you know wherever, you know, 384 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 2: if pepperdine and you see f for those final two teams, 385 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 2: there's that's gonna be a tough task for them tomorrow. 386 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 2: Oregon's definitely got the firepower. I'd say, you go all 387 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 2: the way down to Oregon with a really good round, 388 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 2: you know, but after the Florida State text LSU that, yeah, 389 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 2: they could all jump up in there, all burned data, 390 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 2: had a bad day to day. They've been playing really well, 391 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 2: qualifying out of West Lafiette Regional Gate here, so you 392 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 2: know that they can, especially like you said, if it's soft, 393 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 2: if it continues to stay soft, but it should be 394 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,640 Speaker 2: drying up a little bit. But you know, it all 395 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 2: takes us one good round from somebody. Somebody goes out 396 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 2: and shoots you know, ten twelve under, they'll probably jump 397 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 2: up the boarder a lot. 398 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 4: So it's in terms of kind of who your favorite 399 00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,959 Speaker 4: teams out here, like you know, like what which teams 400 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 4: are you know, would you say you know if you. 401 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 3: Were gonna I know you don't like to make any. 402 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 4: Preditions on the match play stuff, but like who's your 403 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,399 Speaker 4: who's your team that you you look at and say, 404 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,600 Speaker 4: you know, this is the team I think is gonna 405 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 4: put it to put it all together. 406 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:19,399 Speaker 2: Well, you're still it's tough, Andy. I mean, Vanderbilt is 407 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,959 Speaker 2: really good. They're really good one to five. They I 408 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 2: think that they play a little bit. They're gonna be 409 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 2: a little tight, honestly, do They've they've not had a 410 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 2: lot of success in match play. I think that they're 411 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 2: a tight but I just don't know how they'll perform. 412 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 2: I like Oklahoma. They're a loose bunch. 413 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: You know. 414 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 2: Last year was the first year they made it into 415 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 2: match play. They got in in the eighth spot after 416 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 2: a heck of a round last year in the final 417 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 2: round at Eugene, they shot I believe the lowest round 418 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,679 Speaker 2: of the next to lowest round of the day to 419 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 2: get in. 420 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: I like Oklahoma. You know, v has been a quiet 421 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 1: team all year, bit sneaky, so I actually I actually 422 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: picked the. 423 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 2: UNLB and Oklahoma to make it into my top eight. 424 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 2: So those two teams don't surprise me. Uh, USC is good. 425 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 2: I mean, they they're the one team that if they 426 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 2: do have an advantage coming into match play this year, 427 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,199 Speaker 2: just with what they've went through the last two year, 428 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 2: they should have won a title in one of those 429 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 2: last two years. 430 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 1: Probably should have won a title. So you know, they're 431 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 1: gonna be tough. 432 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 2: And in Illinois, I mean, I honestly I didn't expect 433 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 2: this out of Illinois this week, you know, and. 434 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,679 Speaker 1: People can talk all along. I mean, let's talk about it. 435 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 2: If I have somebody out there following me around, Andy 436 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 2: Cherny for me, might go playing better? 437 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: I mean probably not. Yeah, I mean you know, so 438 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,360 Speaker 1: sure can it lift you? Can you give you some confidence? Absolutely? 439 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 2: Their elite players, they've got people cheering for them. I 440 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 2: don't put a lot of stock into home crowds in golf. Yeah, 441 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 2: we put Northwestern. We talked about that last week. Look, 442 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 2: they didn't have big crowds out here. That the first 443 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 2: couple of days, they didn't have anybody watching. 444 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: There was nobody out here. It was forty degrees. 445 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 2: They played well because They're a good team and they 446 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 2: were familiar with the environment. And that's why Illinois the 447 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 2: same thing. They're a good team, they're playing well. They've 448 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 2: caught a high right now. I don't think that to 449 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 2: this point that the crowd has really given them that 450 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 2: much of an edge now in match. I think it 451 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 2: could because we've seen it in Ryder Cup situations when 452 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 2: you get a crowd going. I'll tell you what, I'm 453 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 2: really impressed with the Illinois crowd because of the way 454 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 2: that they're very golf knowledgeable. It seems like last year 455 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 2: in Oregon they didn't. They weren't very they. 456 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:16,240 Speaker 1: Were very nice. 457 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 2: Like when when Texas and Illinois hit shots that were good, 458 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 2: they didn't clap. 459 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 1: There wasn't a lot of like. 460 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 2: But today I've seen the Illinois fans really cheer on 461 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:27,679 Speaker 2: the other teams. 462 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 3: I think. 463 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 4: I mean, it has a lot to do with the 464 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 4: Illinois and Chicago being one of the great golf city. 465 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 3: True, you know, obviously like Chicago. 466 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 4: The game kind of started in Chicago for in America, 467 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 4: so I think you're you're in one of the golf 468 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 4: because of the of the states the. 469 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 2: Real quickly, just looking at the leader board, Oklahoma State 470 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 2: and Baylor and the sixth and who who the heck 471 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 2: would want to play those guys. 472 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State, I mean. 473 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 3: They're they've got the best. 474 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: I mean, there's six shots out of lead and they're unbelievable. 475 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 3: And they were the best five started five rank wise. 476 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 2: And Baylor they I mean, they're I would not want 477 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 2: to be I would not want to be the three 478 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 2: or four or either two or three and have to 479 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 2: play Oklahoma. 480 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 1: State or Baylor. 481 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 4: Just you know, Virginia Jimmy Stanger or Stangers, He's I've 482 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 4: watched him play some poles. 483 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 3: He's really impressed me. 484 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 4: I don't know, he's got to be one of the 485 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 4: best ten players in college. 486 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: Jimmy said, yeah, he had a phenomenal fall.

And I think this year's match play 507 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 2: could be if you get any one of those eight teams, 508 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:18,719 Speaker 2: just like the last couple years, any one of those 509 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 2: eight teams can win, maybe even more so than what 510 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 2: we've seen in the past. 511 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,199 Speaker 4: So in terms of kind of surprises, is there is 512 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 4: there anybody that's surprising you on this list? 513 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 3: Out side? I know you said Illinois, but outside of that. 514 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm not. It's 515 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 2: not like Illinois is a big seek. I mean, I 516 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 2: just didn't expect them to play as well as I 517 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 2: thought they would be fighting more to get into that 518 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 2: top eight, and they still got a round to go. 519 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:45,199 Speaker 2: But I mean, the biggest surprise to me, really is 520 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 2: probably Can't State. I thought Kn't State would not and 521 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 2: I didn't. I did pick them to make it into 522 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 2: the top eight. 523 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: It's not a use. I just thought they'd be a 524 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:58,920 Speaker 1: little bit more in Yeah. But other than that, no, 525 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:00,919 Speaker 1: I mean there's there's not a lot of surprises. 526 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what I mean. Kent State. 527 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 4: I picked them as one of my sleepers too, and 528 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 4: I you know, I getting to see that team. You know, 529 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 4: you think Ken State and most people are probably going 530 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,159 Speaker 4: to say, oh, it's small school, right, this is a 531 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,879 Speaker 4: legitimate school, like in those kids when you talk about 532 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 4: seeing kids that don't look like golfers. I don't know 533 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 4: if there's a school a team that typifies them more 534 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,879 Speaker 4: and they all those kids just smash it. 535 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: Yeah. 536 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,160 Speaker 2: And the thing about Kent State is this is one 537 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:35,399 Speaker 2: of her pages better teams that he's had. Maybe I 538 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 2: don't want to say ever, I'd have to go to 539 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:38,679 Speaker 2: do some research on that, but this is definitely one 540 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 2: of his better teams. So I'm a little surprised on 541 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 2: that a lot of people are going to talk about 542 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 2: Stanford missing. But I'll tell you what, Andy, you go 543 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 2: look at the results. Stanford's not like they've been real 544 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,679 Speaker 2: good in the postseason here, you know, they so you know, 545 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 2: you just let the results speak from self. They it's 546 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:58,160 Speaker 2: a program that that expects, has high expectations, and they've 547 00:23:58,200 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 2: they've missed a few times here lately. 548 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 4: It seems like all year long kind of and it 549 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 4: goes this whole storyline is like the back half of 550 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 4: that lineup all year was when they were on, they 551 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 4: were good when they weren't, you know, And that's where 552 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 4: you know, the interesting thing about you know, college golf, 553 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 4: and you know, when we look at like a bigger 554 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 4: landscape view is like you know, putting together team championships, 555 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 4: like it's really hard to get five. 556 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 3: Four guys playing well all at once. 557 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,919 Speaker 4: And I think, you know, in terms of this for 558 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,120 Speaker 4: the Olympics, like why didn't this happen for the Olympics? 559 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:38,159 Speaker 2: That's major, major, colossal with In fact, when I first 560 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 2: heard about the format for the Olympics, I I didn't 561 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 2: believe it. I mean, I'm like and I yeah, I 562 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 2: don't know. The format for the Olympics was bad. I 563 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 2: mean team golf is yeah, I don't even know, it's 564 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 2: just bad. I don't even know what else to say 565 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 2: about that. I can't believe that they they didn't go 566 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 2: more of that route, honestly. Yeah, And it's not like 567 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 2: they didn't have any knowledge of it. I mean they 568 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 2: seen the Ryder Cup. They've seen you know, how team 569 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 2: golf works in certain situations, and I think in an 570 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 2: Olympic setting, team golf would have been fantastic. 571 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 4: Do you think there could be ever potential and for 572 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:16,160 Speaker 4: an alumni like event for professionals like this. 573 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 1: I think. 574 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 2: There's been a lot of tinkering around with with some things, trying. 575 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: To make something happen with. 576 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 2: Professionals and current players. But you know, a few years ago, 577 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 2: Eric Sodastruman myself, Eric was worked at Golf Week. He's 578 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:39,359 Speaker 2: now works for Titleists. We talked about doing a We 579 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 2: were going to write a column and do a big 580 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 2: thing and talk about a professional golf league, and we 581 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,679 Speaker 2: were going to come up with, you know, ten to 582 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 2: twelve cities, and we were gonna come up with nicknames 583 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,159 Speaker 2: and they would have it actually have a draft, actually 584 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 2: have a draft and have just make this mock PGA 585 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 2: league with cities and confis and stuff. 586 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 1: So that would be cool. Yeah. Do I think it'll 587 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: maybe one off of it? I don't see it. Honestly, 588 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,479 Speaker 1: it's just too you can't get there's too much money involved. 589 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:10,639 Speaker 2: There's these guys and their agents and their teams and 590 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:15,159 Speaker 2: you know, their their schedules. Probably not unless it's like 591 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 2: a hashtag spring Break twenty nineteen and six guys just 592 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 2: go goof around. 593 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,840 Speaker 4: I don't ever see any official I think it would 594 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:26,360 Speaker 4: be cool to see, I you know, being this format 595 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,879 Speaker 4: I think is really great because you know, what you 596 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,679 Speaker 4: see is is that you know, like you can have 597 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:36,199 Speaker 4: an individual lighting it up, but like if if one 598 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 4: of his teammates who was a counting score makes an eight, 599 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 4: all So's, it completely changes the landscape of the team. 600 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 4: It's a very very cool event. So so coverage is 601 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 4: on tomorrow. You know, Sam, my first time college golf viewer, 602 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 4: tuneing in. What should I be kind of watching for? 603 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,359 Speaker 4: What should I you know, what what are some basic 604 00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 4: things I should know tomorrow? 605 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 2: Well, just just I mean what you're watching for. What's 606 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 2: exciting about is what you just hit on. It's just 607 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 2: a team. 608 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 1: Aspect of college. 609 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 2: You know, so many people view golf as an individual sport, 610 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 2: and in this setting you'll see a lot of kids 611 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:13,879 Speaker 2: looking back at the teammates, fist pumping, coaches, you know, 612 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 2: running back and forth, you know, helping, giving information on 613 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 2: bas based on what they saw from the previous player 614 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 2: that played the whole just just. 615 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 1: Just the team aspects. 616 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 2: Probably what would be the most different if you're used 617 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 2: to watching a PJ Tour event, it's it's the it's 618 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,000 Speaker 2: the way that they'll interact and the way they're playing 619 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,199 Speaker 2: for their team. And you don't see that in an 620 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 2: individual golf when you're watching a PJ Tour event. 621 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think that's a that's a good one. 622 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 4: I mean, it's it's infectious. I think if if your 623 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 4: school is anywhere near the hunt, you got it. It's 624 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 4: a must tune in. I think that's that's the cool 625 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 4: thing and brings a lot of casual into it. 626 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 3: So tell me, if if you. 627 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 4: Could make one change to to college golf in general, 628 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 4: what would it be. 629 00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 1: That's a good question. There's a lot. 630 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 2: I mean that question was probably really easier, uh several 631 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 2: years ago. 632 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: Before we started tinkering with the formats and doing things. 633 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 2: But if there if I was commissioner for a day, 634 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 2: I would The thing I would change immediately was I 635 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 2: would I would? I would come up with some sort 636 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 2: of format. There has to be. We have to standardize 637 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 2: college golf. 638 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 1: We can't. 639 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:26,120 Speaker 2: Allow all these different formats. I mean, when you watch 640 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:28,119 Speaker 2: a college football game, you know what it's gonna be. 641 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 2: It's gonna be four quarters, fifteen minute, four quarters, that's 642 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 2: what it's gonna be. When you watch a college basketball game, 643 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 2: you know it's gonna be two twenty minute halfs. I'm 644 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 2: sure when there's a baseball our softball game seven innies, 645 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 2: nine innings, there there is, there's standardized formats to it, 646 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,959 Speaker 2: and you don't change the way it's scored. It's always 647 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 2: you know, a three pointers, always three points, a touchdowns, 648 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 2: always six in an extra point. In college golf, you 649 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 2: might see a thirty six hole event. You might see 650 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 2: an event where there's six players count five. You might 651 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 2: see an event where all five players play together instead 652 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 2: of and it's just and while while each one of 653 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 2: those events, they're doing the same thing in that event, 654 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 2: but that has direct conflict with everything else that's going on. 655 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,719 Speaker 2: For example, when California had their tremendous year a few 656 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 2: years ago, I think they won two, maybe three, but 657 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 2: definitely two six count five events. Well, they had a 658 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 2: they have a better six player than a lot of players. 659 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 2: So when you add that element to it, that's like saying, 660 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 2: you know, we're not What if you played a basketball 661 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 2: game it took the three pointer away. 662 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 1: You'd have some different winners. Both you would have, you 663 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 1: would have some different winners. 664 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 2: So college golf, it's when you think about it, it's crazy, 665 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 2: and it's crazy that you'll count an eighteen hole event 666 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 2: when that would that's like playing a quarter and a 667 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 2: half in football. It's just it's ludicrous that it counts 668 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,239 Speaker 2: and it goes into the system because we all know 669 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 2: that in eighteen holes, I might. I might one day, 670 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 2: in eighteen holes be able to beat you Andy. 671 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: Doubtful, but I might. 672 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 2: You could get squarely and I could go out there 673 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 2: and see I can shoot a seventy eight maybe, and 674 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 2: you could give squarely and I could beat you. But 675 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 2: we know that if you and I played fifty four holes, 676 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 2: I'm not beating you. I'm just not doing it. That's 677 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 2: just and that's what needs it. That's that's a big issue. 678 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 2: I think in Ta Joe and I don't think they 679 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 2: realize how big of an issue it is deeply until 680 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 2: because there's all of a sudden there's getting in regionals 681 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 2: because you have such a fine line between teams that 682 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 2: are ranked seventy fifth and teams that are ranked fiftieth, 683 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 2: and some of that squirrely stuff in there that you know, 684 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 2: just stand and it's easy to standardize the format, say 685 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 2: thirty minimum of thirty six holes to be ranked, to 686 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 2: be a ranked event, maximum of fifty four holes, and 687 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 2: everything has to be five count four everything. 688 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 1: What about play, well, I don't they shouldn't count. 689 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 2: Actually, I mean this is fun and exciting and everything 690 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 2: and whatever, but we all know the number one team, 691 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 2: number one seed, whoever's won the stroke play has never 692 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 2: won and in all the time since two thousand and nine, 693 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 2: and now the women again, it didn't happen. 694 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: North Northwestern was number one seed. They didn't win. 695 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 2: That being said, Arizona State was the number one team 696 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 2: in the country in the Golf League rankings. They weren't 697 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:07,719 Speaker 2: golf staff, but they weren't golf weak and they did win. 698 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 2: And we have seen the number one team win in 699 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 2: men's golf and Texas once I think Alabama did it once, 700 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 2: but they didn't win the stroke play that year. 701 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 3: So do you think there should be a stroke play 702 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 3: champions Yeah, because. 703 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 1: There is, there is what happens tomorrow, It really is. 704 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 1: I mean I think there's no you know, there's no trophy. 705 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, because like I'm an aline I fan. I mean 706 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 3: I went to Illinois. 707 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know we've won the individual, but we 708 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 4: haven't won the team. And to me, it's like you 709 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 4: we we won the stroke. Yeah, like that is every 710 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 4: shot count. Yeah, that is the real championship to a 711 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 4: certain extent. 712 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, yeah it should. I mean i'd also, 713 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: I mean I liked I like watching the match play. 714 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 1: I like the headhead. I mean i'd like, I'd like, 715 00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: why not make all of college golf match play? Just 716 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 1: do away with stroke play? It never happened. 717 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 3: That's the way they do it in England. 718 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, just do away with it completely. Had think about 719 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: the schedules, it'd be so cool. 720 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 2: You know you're gonna I've already got to figured out 721 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 2: I need to write this column this summer. But you know, 722 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 2: instead of having you know, say, say you got a 723 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,840 Speaker 2: tournament like Southern Highlands out in Vegas. So instead of 724 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 2: inviting fifteen teams and you only invite six and you 725 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 2: play each team plays two matches a day. Within the 726 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 2: last day, they play one match. So at the end 727 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 2: of the tournament, you've played five head to heads. So 728 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 2: and it's a round robin deal. So if you go 729 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,479 Speaker 2: five and oh, you've won the tournament. And now now 730 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 2: the standings and the rankings you now have, you know 731 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 2: you might have you might have Vanderbilt ranked number one 732 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 2: in the country with a record of twenty seven and six. Yeah, 733 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 2: that's cool, it is and that would be neat and 734 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 2: every match, and it would change the dynamics of college 735 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 2: Go if you would have teams. Now, now you get 736 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 2: that team like Illinois State or Bradley in the Missouri 737 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:48,920 Speaker 2: Valley and they go in and play Vanderbilt on a weekend, 738 00:32:48,960 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 2: or Georgia and they get a win. 739 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 1: I mean, now you you know, it's the great equalizer. 740 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 1: It'd be cool. It'd be really cool. 741 00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 3: It would like basketball. 742 00:32:58,880 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's absolutely. 743 00:32:59,960 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 2: And then think about a sixty four team tournament, you know, 744 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 2: he bring you know, you have your regionals, if you 745 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 2: have four teams go to I mean we've tinkered around 746 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 2: with it before, but you know, basically have four regional 747 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 2: side sixteen teams there and say the top four from 748 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 2: the regional advances to the National Championship where now you 749 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 2: have sixteen teams, so it's sweet sixteen instead of just 750 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 2: bringing four teams in. 751 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 4: And it'd be cool, it'd be really neat, it'd be interesting. 752 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 4: It's a that's an interesting idea. I love mash play 753 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 4: and it would actually change the dynamic though of how 754 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 4: these kids would play. Yes, because you'd get a lot 755 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 4: more aggressive play. 756 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 2: And what it would do is I honestly think it 757 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 2: would broaden the fan base. It would broaden it would 758 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,719 Speaker 2: make the sport more popular on the campus. Yeah, because 759 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 2: when when you know, Auburn goes and plays at the 760 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 2: Carpet Capital. I'm just using this hypothetically, and they go 761 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 2: down there and it's fifteen good teams and. 762 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 1: They finish eighth. 763 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, they played all right, they've had a good finish 764 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 2: it beat they might have beat a couple of top 765 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 2: ten teams. 766 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 1: They come home. Nobody cares. Yeah, oh you guys, finish 767 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 1: eighth doesn't mean thing. Nobody talks about it. 768 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:02,760 Speaker 3: It's not like, hey, we beat the top team in 769 00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 3: the country. 770 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 2: Now they go in there and they play match play 771 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:08,239 Speaker 2: and they beat Georgia Tech or Georgia or whoever you know, 772 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 2: U c l A. 773 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 1: They come home, you just had a great weekend. 774 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you'd beat U C. 775 00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: L A. And they were you know, wow, you beat you. 776 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 1: You know, it's different. So there's the common fan can 777 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 1: identify with it better. 778 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's it. I never thought of that. I'm not 779 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,919 Speaker 4: the common fan that I don't think about these things. 780 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, because because you follow it anywhere exactly. 781 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:30,320 Speaker 4: So one idea I had, you know, something that I 782 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 4: always wonder about is like, you know these regionals, like 783 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 4: you get teams, you got teams that are some of 784 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 4: the best teams in the country that aren't here this 785 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 4: week because they had a bad week at regional. Do 786 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 4: you think that there should be any place for auto 787 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 4: bids similar to similar to the NCAA tournament where you know, 788 00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,839 Speaker 4: if I'm if I just say Florida, for example, top 789 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 4: five team all year, had you know some of the 790 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 4: biggest wins that they aren't here even though they have 791 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:58,360 Speaker 4: some of the best players in the country. 792 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,800 Speaker 2: I don't think with college With the NCAA basketball tournament, 793 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 2: if you're the one seed, you have to play the 794 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 2: sixteen seed in the first round. And even though the 795 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:08,239 Speaker 2: number one seeds never lost in basketball, they still have 796 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 2: to win to get here. But the two have fifteen 797 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 2: as and they've lost to the eight nine team in 798 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 2: the next round. 799 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 1: So I don't think this. 800 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 2: Once the tournament starts, it's the tournament. So no, I 801 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 2: don't think you should. I mean, I don't think Aby 802 00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 2: should get a free pass out of regional to hear No, 803 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 2: I wouldn't agree with. I wouldn't want to see that. 804 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 4: So to switch gears a little bit, I'm curious with 805 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:31,640 Speaker 4: you know, who's been your the most surprising guy that 806 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,440 Speaker 4: you've covered that hasn't made it to tour yet. 807 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,240 Speaker 2: That we we actually talked about that this week with someone. 808 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 2: So the biggest, the biggest name and I actually get 809 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:47,240 Speaker 2: answer to this. The biggest name player that I'm surprised 810 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 2: that we never saw get out on tour and win 811 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 2: is Matt Giles from southern California. I know, if you 812 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:55,360 Speaker 2: remember Matt, he's actually from New Zealand. The kid was 813 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,799 Speaker 2: really good amateur player in college play. I don't even 814 00:35:57,800 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 2: know what he's doing now. I don't even if he's 815 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 2: still playing golf. I haven't seen his name forever. That's 816 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,439 Speaker 2: probably the one kid that never got out on tour 817 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,840 Speaker 2: that that was probably the most surprising because I just 818 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:10,680 Speaker 2: thought he was you know, and he was part of 819 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 2: that USC team in two thousand and nine that lost 820 00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:15,800 Speaker 2: to Michigan at Inverness. 821 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 1: See that's another thing. 822 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,600 Speaker 2: I just said that, right, two thousand and nine team 823 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:21,320 Speaker 2: that lost to Michigan Inverness. 824 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,120 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have remembered anything if it was match stroke play. 825 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 1: But match play. I went to the championship from two 826 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 1: thousand to two thousand and eight. H I remember. 827 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 2: Oklahoma State winning at sun River. I don't remember anything 828 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 2: about it except them standing there for the picture, honestly. 829 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:40,319 Speaker 2: Jonathan Moore, I remember Clemson winning at still Water. 830 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 1: Yeah. 831 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I don't remember things about the tournament. Now 832 00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:47,839 Speaker 2: that match play is going on, I remember all kinds 833 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 2: of things, shots, people running to seem mean you remembers, 834 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 2: and that's that's the thing. So I go back to 835 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 2: my thing again, match play all year long. 836 00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 4: It's yeah, I mean it would It would make just 837 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 4: the week to week thing way more exciting. 838 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:03,319 Speaker 1: Yeah. 839 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 4: Is so you'd have just eighteen hole matches. So over 840 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 4: a weekend, you'd play three eighteen hole matches. 841 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 2: Actually you could play, you could you could play, you 842 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:13,239 Speaker 2: could maybe play six. You can maybe play six. It 843 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 2: would be two eighty very tiring, it would be. 844 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 1: But what look at this week? Yeah, you know, but 845 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 1: you could. 846 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:20,359 Speaker 2: But you could do under the current format, you could 847 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:23,880 Speaker 2: play eighteen. You could play thirty six, thirty six, eighteen. 848 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 1: But you can do it. I mean it could, It 849 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 1: could be done. 850 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 3: So you know, we got a couple. 851 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,839 Speaker 4: We'll do one more question and we'll get We'll get 852 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:38,439 Speaker 4: gay here on overrated underrated. First first question, last question 853 00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 4: is you know what's your favorite whether it be amateur 854 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 4: or college event of the year. 855 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 3: What's your favorite one. 856 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 1: Favorite event? 857 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:48,719 Speaker 2: Well, obviously this this is probably the favorite event because 858 00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:52,279 Speaker 2: this is the super Bowl. Yeah, I let's see, I 859 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:57,360 Speaker 2: probably I really enjoy going to the All American Classic 860 00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:57,919 Speaker 2: and I'll pass. 861 00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 1: So that was always so fun. Yeah, the Sunball All 862 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:00,880 Speaker 1: American Classic. 863 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:04,239 Speaker 2: That that's always a fun when they go to just because, uh, 864 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 2: it's just the laid back atmosphere of it. The kids 865 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,560 Speaker 2: are there without their team. It's kind of ironic because 866 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 2: it's a team game, but it's just it's just a 867 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,759 Speaker 2: fun event for me. Uh. The food's fantastic. I based 868 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 2: a lot of my events andy on the food. Where 869 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 2: I'm going it's a big. 870 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 1: Just good steaks, good good, good Mexican food down there. 871 00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 2: Just yeah, it's just that's a good event. That's probably 872 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 2: it's probably one of my favorites. But a lot of 873 00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:28,719 Speaker 2: them are good. A lot of them are the you know, 874 00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:31,279 Speaker 2: the hospitality and you know, it's the thing about those 875 00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 2: events and there once a year, so usually they roll 876 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 2: it out. 877 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:36,839 Speaker 4: When they do it, I'll pass. So that's a big 878 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 4: deal coming down there. It is so our Friday tradition 879 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 4: is overrated, underrated. So I'm just going to give you 880 00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:47,440 Speaker 4: a series a couple couple of things here. And you 881 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:52,640 Speaker 4: say overrated, underrated? What you think ball striking? 882 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:56,280 Speaker 1: Just ball striking? 883 00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 3: Is it overrated? 884 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:02,400 Speaker 1: I think it's totally underrated. I mean overrated, a totally overrate. 885 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:04,840 Speaker 2: I mean I Jakoff and my good friend at the 886 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:06,480 Speaker 2: Golf Channel used to be a boss at Golf Week 887 00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,480 Speaker 2: whenever they you know, Chad Campbell, what a great ball striker? 888 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,719 Speaker 1: What the hell does that mean? Aren't they all good 889 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:13,360 Speaker 1: ball strikers? 890 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 2: Sure, some guys hit a squirrely No, So when you 891 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 2: took ball striking, uh, overrated. 892 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:23,440 Speaker 3: I think it's just become a commodity watching all these It's. 893 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 4: Easy to say it's his ball striking or whatever, and 894 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 4: it's like the kids that really get it done are 895 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 4: the ones that get it done on and around the greens. 896 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,360 Speaker 4: Like you know, that's the difference between Sam Burns and 897 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 4: uh you know the number three guy on. 898 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:39,680 Speaker 1: On uh On, You aren't you if you're on the 899 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:41,640 Speaker 1: PGA Tour, aren't you probably a pretty. 900 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:48,840 Speaker 3: Good ball striker. How about Illinois's three man Eduardo. 901 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:53,920 Speaker 2: He's probably underrated, super yeah, super underrated. I mean Dylan Byer, 902 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:58,120 Speaker 2: Nick Hardy. The thing about Illinois golf I will for 903 00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 2: every year I always said there this is they're they're rebuilding. 904 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 2: They're rebuilding, They're rebuilding. No, no, they've just been reloading. 905 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:10,880 Speaker 2: They've been reloading, and he's part of a reloading structure. 906 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 3: I like, have been blown away by this because game 907 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 3: this week. I think. 908 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 2: Did he win earlier this year as an individual? I 909 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,719 Speaker 2: think so Olympic somewhere in the fall. I thought he 910 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 2: played his individual one. 911 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 4: I honestly think he could have the most I like, 912 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:28,120 Speaker 4: I'm a huge Nick Hardy and Dylan Meyer fan. I 913 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 4: think he might have the most talent of any kid 914 00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 4: on that roster. 915 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 2: If he if Illinois wins this week. I bet he's 916 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 2: a big he might go have to go three and Ozero. 917 00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 3: Yes, it's it's interesting. 918 00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 4: And year over year Mike Small, what amazes me is 919 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 4: how much he develops his players and like that, no 920 00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 4: kid gets worse. 921 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 2: No. And the other thing about Mike Small, how many 922 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 2: years has he been there now? Is it like eighteen seventeen? 923 00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 1: Isn't like okay? 924 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 2: And I might be off on my numbers, But the 925 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:01,640 Speaker 2: first six or seven years he didn't there, didn't do much. 926 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 2: He was developing the program. Now that he developed the 927 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 2: program into what it is now he's doing, you know, 928 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 2: So it goes to show you a lot of It 929 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 2: took him a while to build what he wanted to build. 930 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:14,319 Speaker 1: And I was a critic when they hired Mike Small. 931 00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 1: I thought it was a joke. I'll say it. 932 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,600 Speaker 2: I mean I really did, and that that was more 933 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 2: of the who you know, why would a guy because 934 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 2: it doesn't It's never worked in other sports. You know, 935 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 2: you think about all the great players that have been 936 00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:31,240 Speaker 2: that have gotten head coaching jobs in football or basketball. 937 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 2: It hasn't always worked, and most times it's failed more 938 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,320 Speaker 2: than not. And golf, I always thought that that was 939 00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,239 Speaker 2: going to be a bad move, and and boy was 940 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 2: I wrong. There's been Chris Sambry, Conrad Ray, He's you 941 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,320 Speaker 2: know at Stanford, Mike Small. There's been a lot of 942 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,439 Speaker 2: former players that didn't have coaching experience that jumped into. 943 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:47,920 Speaker 1: And have done well. 944 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:52,239 Speaker 4: That Naylan Chris Nalen is now at Arizona.
