33
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 5: knock another team out. We'll see, how about it. Man, Yeah,

36
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 4: I'm tied to Oklahoma. I ate a tough one last night.

37
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 5: I got a former player of mind, the point guard

38
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,720
Speaker 5: at Oklahoma, Xavier Brown.

39
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 2: Right right, So that was a tough way. They were

40
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,519
Speaker 2: right there too, jeez.

41
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 5: Depending on where you look their last four and last

42
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 5: four out mmm, I'm hoping they had a tough start,

43
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:31,359
Speaker 5: but they finished.

44
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 4: I think they won eight out of the last ten games.

45
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 4: It beat some really good teams.

46
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 5: I got like four or five quad one wins, but

47
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 5: I don't know now on nineteen and fourteen out up

48
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 5: that cuts it.

49
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's tough. You gotta get you know twenties. Oh,

50
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 2: it's the threshold.

51
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 3: The shame.

52
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 2: Man.

53
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:48,520

Speaker 6: my god, dude. Uh some of the let's just look

57
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 6: at the hot I likes a little bit. Uh, Michigan survives.

58
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 6: They got they beat Ohive State. That was a good game.

59
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, they got pushed. Uh Wisconsin over in the alive

60
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 2: and over time was a great game.

61
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

62
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 4: You see that.

63
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 5: Arizona finish Arizona Iowa State.

64
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, two of my top teams. I think they have

65
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,079
Speaker 4: a good chance of winning. Went down. Buzzer beater winner.

66
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, Arizona eighty eighty.

67
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 5: Man Jaden Bradley, he's tough man, big time bucket.

68
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 4: Arizona's really good.

69
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 5: They got a lot of depth, a lot of you know,

70
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 5: I think Bradley's your guy, but they have a bunch

71
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 5: of different guys.

72
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 4: I mean, I think they have five or six guys

73
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 4: scoring double figures.

74
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 3: That big twelve man. That conference is nasty.

75
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it is, man, it really is the final.

76
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 2: Arizona Houston because Houston's just wicked.

77
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 3: Arizona Houston final. They were liking that game.

78
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 4: I'm gonna lean Arizona, but it's going to be close.

79
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 2: Man.

80
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 5: I'm gonna lean Arizona just because you know, I think

81
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,520
Speaker 5: they just got a little bit more. But you never

82
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 5: Houston can beat anyone. But just because of how hard

83
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 5: they played them. Calvin Sampson teams, they just he's another

84
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 5: good coach, man great coach. I mean he's been underrated

85
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 5: for years. I mean all he does is win. Wherever

86
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 5: he goes, He's just won. I mean wherever Conference ran.

87
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 5: I know he's been in Houston forever, but wherever that

88
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,559
Speaker 5: team is, regardless of the level, they just keep winning.

89
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 4: Unbelievable.

90
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 3: Let me go over.

91
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 2: I'll just you know, let's just go through the games

92
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 2: for today. So this is what's happening today. One of

93
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 2: the semis Michigan and Wisconsin. We talked about Wisconsin with

94
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 2: the upset. So Michigan takes on Wisconsin at one o'clock

95
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 2: to get it started today.

96
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 5: Wisconsin's the team that's been kind of under the radarists

97
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 5: knuck in the top twenty five. They got twenty four wins.

98
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,919
Speaker 5: Right now, I'd like Michigan to win the game, but

99
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 5: it's the lines twelve and a half. I like Wisconsin

100
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 5: and cover, but I like Michigan to win the game.

101
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 2: You know what, it's funny man there. Any time I

102
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,280
Speaker 2: seen him this time of the year, it was dangerous.

103
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 2: And you know it's been a minute now since the

104
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 2: Bo Ryan days where they were always a defensive team.

105
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:29,839
Speaker 4: Yep.

106
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 3: And this team could score, this team can push it

107
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 3: up and down the floor.

108
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, I would. I think Michigan will prevail in the end,

109
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 4: but I do like Wisconsin to cover the number today.

110
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 2: Uh, Vandy and Florida is the other one in the

111
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 2: SEC today.

112
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm in Florida. I'm a big Florida guy to share.

113
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 4: They're figuring it out. Their guards, they're kind of figuring

114
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 4: it out now.

115
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 3: You know.

116
00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 5: I think they handled rander Bilt today unfortunately, like Mandy

117
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 5: as a team and as at the university. But yeah,

118
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 5: I think Florida's got too much. Their guards are figuring

119
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 5: it out. Flaying is playing well. Xavier Lee struggled early,

120
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 5: but you know the kid who transferred from the IVY League, he's.

121
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 4: Figuring it out now and playing really well. And then

122
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,799
Speaker 4: they got They've just unbelievable length and you know depth.

123
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 4: So yeah, I'm gonna lean. Uh, I'm gonna go Florida.

124
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 3: Here the other the other.

125
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 2: S, SEC, Semi, Arkansas, Old Miss Yeah, running Reds.

126
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,599
Speaker 4: I don't know, you think they still got the magic.

127
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 4: I mean they're being good teams right now.

128
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm not counting them out.

129
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 4: I'm not counting them out.

130
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,840
Speaker 5: I think you know, Cal and these young guys, they

131
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 5: had a great win last night over Oklahoma. Like we

132
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,840
Speaker 5: still said at the beginning, I think they move on.

133
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 5: This kid A Cuff is just unbelievable. He's thirty seven

134
00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 5: last night. Yeah, yeah, he's he's unbelievable. Man, He's just dude.

135
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 5: He just I love it because you know, we talk

136
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 5: about it every week, but you know, dying young kids

137
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 5: of the high school kids.

138
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 4: Cal still heavy on the high school kid he is.

139
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 4: So I love to see that.

140
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 3: Said.

141
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 2: I'll take these young pumps, love it and I'll run.

142
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 2: I'll make a run.

143
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 4: I'll yeah it's it soretty good. Yeah, I'm gonna. I'm

144
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 4: gonna go to Arkansas there.

145
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 2: Uh Purdue u c L a produe he's lane seven

146
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 2: and a half.

147
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, like Purdue. U see LA is a good team,

148
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 5: really well coached. But Purdue, they got the experienced backcourt.

149
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 5: I've been kind of on them all year. I' they've

150
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 5: been underachieved for sure, but I love, you know, gritty backcourts,

151
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 5: and that's what they have over there with Smith and

152
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 5: they've been there four or five years. So I think

153
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 5: they're going to run. I know they've underachieved, but I

154
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 5: think they have the ability to go in a little

155
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 5: bit of a run here. So I'm gonna go Purdue.

156
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 2: And then uh, we talked about Arizona Houston once again.

157
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 2: That's six o'clock. That's the game of the day, oh

158
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 2: for sure. And then at six thirty another great game. Man,

159

Speaker 5: I just I like their guards a little better. Yeah,

185
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,000

201
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, like I mean, they might cover, but I like

202
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:31,960
Speaker 4: Duke to win the game.

203
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:33,320
Speaker 1: Ka.

204
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,560
Speaker 4: I mean the Boozer Boys elite.

205
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 5: But yeah, the big fella has just been you know,

206
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 5: I know people don't love him and have to think

207
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 5: it's this huge upside. He just he's just a winner.

208
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 5: He's They've won at every level, and they won eyb

209
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 5: L Circuit which is the Nike AU Circuit as like

210
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:54,679
Speaker 5: sixteen year olds. They might I think they went on

211
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 5: a crazy streak where they've lost like two AU games

212
00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 5: in their four years.

213
00:10:58,920 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 4: They were like.

214
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 5: National champson high school and then he just went to

215
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 5: high Schoollege college.

216
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 4: Right now, they're just winners, man.

217
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, they are big. You know, they don't they're really

218
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 5: good basketball players. They don't have this physical you know

219
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 5: these uh you know they're not jumping through the roof.

220
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 5: But people knock their athletic ability. They're really talented, man, and.

221
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 4: They just win. They have the intangibles.

222
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 5: So yeah, man, I think Duke, they're going to run now.

223
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 5: I don't know if they can. You know, I like

224
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 5: them to go further. But you know, with Caleb Foster

225
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 5: getting injured, he doesn't have the numbers, but he's an

226
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 5: elite defender and he's that engine for them. He's a

227
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 5: you know, experience point guard. So we'll see how how

228
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,439
Speaker 5: they how they fare come come to madness.

229
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 3: Well man answ you question how many teams in your

230
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 3: mind can win it?

231
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 4: Six six to eight?

232
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I would put that. Man.

233
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 2: It's probably the most in a while, like of quality,

234
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 2: good quality teams.

235
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 3: It's gonna be a great tournament.

236
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,199
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm excited. I'm really excited.

237
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 5: It remind you know college football Championships was exciting, right

238
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 5: there was upsets, there was you know, for a while

239
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 5: it was like one of two teams this year. You know,

240
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 5: it was a little different obviously coming out on top,

241
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 5: but I thought it was a little different. I thought

242
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 5: I liked how there were some upsets early on. It

243
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 5: wasn't you know, it wasn't just chalk one through four, right,

244
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 5: And I think this tournament, look, it could end up

245
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:35,319
Speaker 5: that way. But I think there's about.

246
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,679
Speaker 4: You know, six to eight teams that I think could

247
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 4: really win it at the end of the day.

248
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:41,320
Speaker 3: Isn't that crazy?

249
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 2: I mean when you thick about it, like quality, I

250
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:54,679
Speaker 2: mean just quality teams. Michigan easily, Florida easily, Arizona, Houston,

251
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 2: U Khon.

252
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 3: Duke.

253
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,559
Speaker 4: You had six, I have two more. I would go.

254
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,839
Speaker 4: I think Ioways State, I stayed.

255
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,560
Speaker 3: I agree as legit.

256
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 4: I kind of like Dellinois, I know, just got upset yesterday.

257
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 4: I was an Illinois guy. And then that's eight yeah, I.

258
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 3: Mean yeah, and you got teams like Saint John's could

259
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 3: get to the final four.

260
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, Kansas, I mean when if Peterson figures it out,

261
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 5: I mean they got bombed yesterday.

262
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 4: But when Peterson's playing, he's unbelievable.

263
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 3: Watch the point with him.

264
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 4: Yeah.

265
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 2: Uh all right, let me ask you because this is

266
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 2: this is this will be a fun little exercise. There's

267
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 2: a lot of talk because if you remember a couple

268
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 2: of weeks ago, we reimagine college football, which I love

269
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 2: our plan.

270
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 3: I did we need to get that up.

271
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 2: We need to get that and that should actually be

272
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 2: our first We're about to launch the Project don Il

273
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,840
Speaker 2: podcast and that should be one of the first shows.

274
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 4: Just laying it out, let all of it out.

275
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 3: This it's it's all out there.

276
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 2: We had it, I mean, from the relegation aspect to

277
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:14,439
Speaker 2: the you know, four leagues relegation, compensation for losing players,

278
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 2: the six.

279
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:16,679
Speaker 3: Year limit portal.

280
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 2: I was having a conversation yesterday for my college football

281
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 2: TV project and uh, the guy working with he was like,

282
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 2: he's like, listen, the biggest problem.

283
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 3: Is the is the portal for sure? He's like, you

284
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 3: got to live So we had too. We had what

285
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 3: two portal?

286
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, we we we like it.

287
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 5: Person, you know, like sports can go on once a season, right,

288
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:45,640
Speaker 5: like we allowed it. We allowed two transfers in your

289
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 5: years unless your coach leaves, and we said you always

290
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,080
Speaker 5: can go up, but there would.

291
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 4: Be compensation if you for that going down.

292
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 5: Right, So like me, it's only fair tyber parameters and

293
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 5: you want to just bounce around once you get like

294
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 5: you have two unless there's some circumstance like a coach

295
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 5: leaves that were recruiting you. We're giving you a pass

296
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 5: on that, but there has to be some parameters around it.

297
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 5: And you know, because it went from one extreme where

298
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 5: no matter what, basically if you transferred you had the

299
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 5: city yere to.

300
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 4: You can transfer every year with no punishment.

301
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 5: So like that extreme changed everything and people kind of

302
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:24,600
Speaker 5: look past that.

303
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 4: A lot of people focus on the money.

304
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:31,760
Speaker 5: That is the extreme that really changed college sports totally.

305
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 5: That is when that domino, and again it gets looked past,

306
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 5: was what really really changed how we go about what

307
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 5: NCAA looks like and what all college sports look like.

308
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm totally with you, totally with you, all right,

309
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 2: So let's let's think about this because there's a lot

310
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 2: of talk about about the madness right there as a lot

311
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 2: of talk about the tournament and changing the tournament, expanding

312
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 2: the tournament. Would you expand it to uh to eighty teams?

313
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 4: Yeah?

314
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 3: I like that.

315
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 5: That was your idea and I like it. We had

316
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 5: we had some two days early on.

317
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 4: I love it. Man.

318
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 5: I think there's there's more parody right now that we

319
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 5: just said we named eight teams. I have to rip

320
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 5: that we all thought of like legit contenders could win it,

321
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 5: and we still I still there. Who knows there could

322
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 5: be another ten, right, that could be in that mix,

323
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 5: in that second level. So I like it. It only

324
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 5: affects that first week. I noticed some travel that might

325
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 5: be you know, in play. But say we wrap everything Saturday,

326
00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 5: you know, Sunday to shows a little earlier, and then

327
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 5: we get moving, baby, Yeah, we get moving.

328
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, we could if you add more.

329
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 2: You went, you went up to eighty, You're you're gonna

330
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 2: expand the first round. You would have forty games. In

331
00:16:58,800 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 2: the first round.

332
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 4: We would go tuesdays. You said you would go Tuesday Wednesday.

333
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,199
Speaker 2: Well, you would do ten today, right, you could do

334
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:09,679
Speaker 2: ten Tuesday, ten Wednesday, ten Thursday, ten Friday.

335
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,719
Speaker 5: You'd have me not going to work for a week. Though,

336
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 5: that's not a problem. I have to make sure that

337
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 5: spring breaks still correlated.

338
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 2: Now, I mean that's kind of what I mean. That's

339
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:25,439
Speaker 2: what you would have. You eliminate the playing days and

340
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,520
Speaker 2: instead of a play in which I'm not really a

341
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 2: fan of, because, like, if you, I agree with you,

342
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 2: the conference storms are like plays.

343
00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 4: No, I completely agree with you.

344
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,199
Speaker 5: I mean, I'd like when they added more teams, so

345
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 5: I was in favor of it, but you're not really

346
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,640
Speaker 5: in it, right, Like you're playing just to get into

347
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 5: the field, right, and then like, and I don't get

348
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 5: it when it's like the eleven seeds, It's like what,

349
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,640
Speaker 5: Like I was like, you should be playing. It should

350
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 5: be the sixteen seeds playing another sixteen seeds. Right to

351
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 5: have an eleven seed have to get another game just

352
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:56,879
Speaker 5: to get in it.

353
00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 4: It's kind of crazy to me.

354
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, I'm not a fan of it. I

355
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:06,439
Speaker 2: think you're better off by doing by just expanding it

356
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 2: and just adding to two days like the great, Like,

357
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 2: you know, you're having a week, your week of hoops,

358
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 2: I mean Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and then you got

359
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,400
Speaker 2: your you know, and then you got your second round

360
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 2: game Saturday Sunday.

361
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then we're just back on schedule.

362
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 3: Yeah.

363
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 2: I mean, if you wanted, you could also dive into

364
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 2: Monday and you would go Saturday, Sunday, Monday.

365
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 4: Wow.

366
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:33,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

367
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 4: I mean, look, you're never.

368
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:39,119
Speaker 2: Which would be outrageous because when Monday comes there's always

369
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 2: a natural letdown.

370
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, like after Sunday.

371
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:48,440
Speaker 2: It's like, oh my god, that was a great four

372
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 2: days of the tournament, right, but Monday comes as a drag.

373
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 2: So this way, Monday extends and now you're back in

374
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 2: the week.

375
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 5: They would never let that happen though, in because of

376
00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,880
Speaker 5: a gamble and bracket side of it. You know, they

377
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 5: want they want time to figure that out.

378
00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 4: They're not going to you know, you can't just jump

379
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:08,360
Speaker 4: right into it.

380
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,679
Speaker 2: They're gonna want no, no, no, no, I'm saying on the

381
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,400
Speaker 2: back end. Oh on the back end.

382
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 4: Yeah oh yeah.

383
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, like when they figure about it because you are

384
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 2: adding games. Yeah yeah, right, so you got forty first

385
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 2: round games. Yeah, so you could so you could go

386
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,360
Speaker 2: and play like the second round. You could just make

387
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 2: it Saturday, Sunday, Monday. Yeah, you're right, and you're still

388
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,919
Speaker 2: okay for the following weekend Thursday Friday.

389
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 4: Then then you're on schedule. Yeah, you're right.

390
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 2: I mean you could add that Monday because the Monday

391
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 2: team plays Fridays and doesn't turn around on.

392
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 3: A big deal.

393
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, it makes sense.

394
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 3: You like the little Monday action.

395
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 4: Oh I love it. I mean yeah, yeah, I'm in

396
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 4: on it, all right. Love talking like this. We're gonna

397
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 4: be commissioners before we know it. Have my sad brother.

398
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:07,880
Speaker 3: That's great. Uh, all right, let's do this.

399
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 2: Let's take a quick too, and then every I think

400
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:15,240

401
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 2: the A D And I have ten questions that I've

402
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 2: compiled from youth parents that I'm gonna give to you.

403
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 2: And I think these questions are pretty general and youth

404
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 2: parents around the country will have these sorts of questions,

405
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 2: all right. I compile them from a list of my parents.

406
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 3: That I that I like.

407
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,600

444
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:51,399
Speaker 2: So I'm a youth coach, as you know. With all

445
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,120
Speaker 2: That's why I got into this. I love the project

446
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,639
Speaker 2: that il I love working with you with it, and

447
00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 2: I want to get into a lot of the questions

448
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:07,880
Speaker 2: that parents have so at practice during baseball practice, and

449
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 2: I asked some of my football and basketball parents some

450
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,880
Speaker 2: questions to ask you. So these were the questions ask

451
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,879
Speaker 2: the ad once a month, we're going to do it.

452
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 2: Question number one, mister A D. At what age should

453
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:29,119
Speaker 2: I think about investing in supplemental skills coaching? Could be

454
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 2: any sport, you know, soccer has a skills coach, football, quarterbacks,

455
00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 2: you know, you get the whole thing, Baseball, pitching, hitting coaches.

456
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,400
Speaker 2: At what age should I start investing in that stuff?

457
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a great question. And then it's becoming more

458
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:46,800
Speaker 5: and more common. Right when I was growing up, there

459
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 5: wasn't really there was some trainers, you know for specific things,

460
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 5: but it's mainly just your youth coaches, right, So yeah,

461
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,439
Speaker 5: it is evolving. Yeah, and I think it's important to evolve, right.

462
00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 5: I always like, you know, kind of pressing on and

463
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 5: trying new things. But my personal opinion is I think

464
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 5: we're doing it too young. I like that middle school

465
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:11,679
Speaker 5: age when you get to like ten eleven, because you know,

466
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:13,879
Speaker 5: I think that's when you know your body's starting to

467
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 5: develop more, you know, technical habits start to matter a

468
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:17,400
Speaker 5: little bit more.

469
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 4: You know, kids are you know, beginning to separate themselves

470
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 4: competitively at that age.

471
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 5: So I think that's when it's like kind of the

472
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 5: early issues just start people. I see people starting at

473
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 5: five years old.

474
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 4: Now you know, yeah, well that's ridiculous.

475
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:31,800
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, I don't think.

476
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 5: In the soccer training where I see it, right, kids

477
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 5: are doing training and you know, I'm not knocking these guys.

478
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 5: I think there is some you know, there's some value

479
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 5: in it, right, you're learning skills and you're working on it.

480
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,439
Speaker 5: But me kind of a rule of thumb is like

481
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,719
Speaker 5: if the kids aren't asking for more yet, you know,

482
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,200
Speaker 5: you don't push it on them until you know. I

483
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,520
Speaker 5: would say that middle school age is where you can

484
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:53,040
Speaker 5: start to do it right.

485
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 4: I think body development is important, you know.

486
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 3: And I talk good. Sixth seventh grade is the sweet spot.

487
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I think it's important, you know, because when

488
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:04,679
Speaker 5: you're doing a lot of that stuff, you're you're training

489
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 5: more and you're competing.

490
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 4: These kids got to learn how to play, right. They

491
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 4: got to be in an environment.

492
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,520
Speaker 5: I like when playing games is important because I'm seeing

493
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 5: more and more kids are just robotic out there and

494
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 5: they don't have the feel for their game. They might

495
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 5: be a phenomenal athlete and you know they're talented, but

496
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 5: their IQ is lacking because they're strictly doing drills and

497
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 5: not playing enough.

498
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 3: Well.

499
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 2: You know.

500
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,880
Speaker 3: The other thing too, is they don't watch it.

501
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, they don't.

502
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,680
Speaker 3: That's that to me is the biggest thing for IQ.

503
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 2: Watching games, Like you gotta watch games to pick up

504
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,600
Speaker 2: on IQ. Just playing it is one thing. Watching it

505
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 2: and seeing it played at the highest level gives you

506
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:49,840
Speaker 2: an understanding of the game.

507
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I agree. I think that IQ has lacked.

508
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 5: I think we have better athletes and you know, they

509
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 5: might be technically a little bit more skilled, but they

510
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:01,880
Speaker 5: don't have the IQ. And I take the IQ all

511
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 5: day long. That's what comes into winning. So I think something,

512
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,160
Speaker 5: you know, I'm seeing it more and more with these kids.

513
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 5: I just feel like they're too robotic out there. They're

514
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 5: doing they're doing these drills that they're watching on YouTube.

515
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,640
Speaker 5: We're getting trainers. It's taken over and it's not really

516
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 5: helping them understand the game. And that's where I think

517
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 5: they're being hurt.

518
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 4: And I totally agree.

519
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:26,479
Speaker 2: I like, listen, it's my argument with my kids because

520
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 2: you know, they don't watch enough.

521
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:30,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, you gotta see it.

522
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,000
Speaker 3: You gotta watch it. Man, you gotta sit down and

523
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:32,680
Speaker 3: watch a game.

524
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 5: You got to understand it, right, It's it's mental is

525
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,919
Speaker 5: half the battle, right. So it's great to be this

526
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,920
Speaker 5: physical specimen and you know, hone your skills, but if

527
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,040
Speaker 5: you mentally aren't there.

528
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 4: Or have an understanding you're not, You're not gonna win.

529
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 3: Man.

530
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 4: That's at the end of the day. So that's kind

531
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 4: of where I'm at with it.

532
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 3: All right.

533
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:57,679
Speaker 2: Question the next question, now, at what age should a

534
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 2: kid begin playing? And I'm going to give you the

535
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:02,679
Speaker 2: sport soccer.

536
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think soccers early on. I would go, I

537
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 4: think soccers.

538
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:09,199
Speaker 5: You know, I've seen it. You know, I say, I

539
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:11,159
Speaker 5: played soccer growing up. I think in that, you know,

540
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,080
Speaker 5: I think it's important to get the kids running out there,

541
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 5: you know, four, five six, I think it's important to

542
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 5: just get them understanding kicking the ball and you know,

543
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 5: being around it.

544
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,120
Speaker 4: I think it's important. I think soccer is the earliest

545
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 4: one in my eyes, because.

546
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,880
Speaker 3: Bad basketball, yeah, I would say.

547
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 5: And at five to seven range, five to eight range hockey, Yeah,

548
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,400
Speaker 5: it's tough because you're skating is difficult.

549
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 3: Wait, do you see these these kids you Counada are

550
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:43,399
Speaker 3: on skates at two three years old.

551
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 5: I would say five to eight. I'm in that range.

552
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 5: I just still think soccer is the earliest.

553
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 2: All right, uh baseball, you get t ball five years old?

554
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, five five is a good start started.

555
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 5: I think he was four, Yeah, whatever it was, Yeah,

556
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,920
Speaker 5: I can get and if I'm five, in that range

557
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 5: you need to because you need to have some discipline.

558
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,040
Speaker 5: Is mentally standing there a little bit, so I think

559
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 5: they're younger. It is a little difficult, but yeah, I'll

560
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 5: go five years old.

561
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:19,199
Speaker 2: And probably the most controversial because of all my of

562
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 2: all my discussions, football is the one where people always

563
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 2: shy away from, which I think is a mistake. But

564
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 2: you tell me what you think when you should start

565
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 2: playing football.

566
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:34,920
Speaker 4: I think it's the latest.

567
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 5: But in saying that, right, we staid soccer four three

568
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 5: four for soccer, everyone else has kind of been at

569
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 5: five age. I would say seven to eight in that range.

570
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 4: I think it's a little later, just because there's gonna

571
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,320
Speaker 4: be more physical contact in it. Regardless if you're playing

572
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 4: tackle or not, you're gonna be you know, you're gonna

573
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:54,800
Speaker 4: be running into people. So I don't know, I think

574
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 4: I would say a year or two behind the other ones.

575
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:02,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, and listen, I'm with you on that. But you know,

576
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 2: I hear people are talking. I mean, listen, far be

577
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:11,880
Speaker 2: from me to argue with this man. But Steek Spagnolo

578
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 2: said he would have his kid play and he doesn't

579
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 2: have children, he would have his kids play in start

580
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 2: in high school.

581
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 3: Wow. And I was like, dude, I think that's too late.

582
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 4: That's too late.

583
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 5: I think that's too late too. You need a little experience,

584
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 5: That's what I'm saying. It's on the later side for sure.

585
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 5: But I wouldn't say high school.

586
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:29,719
Speaker 3: I think.

587
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:31,920
Speaker 5: I mean, I've seen it happen and I've seen it

588
00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:34,800
Speaker 5: be you know, to go well. But I would say,

589
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 5: for the rule of thumb, I would say the start.

590
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 4: Earlier if they if they have interest in it.

591
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 2: I I'll tell you, I love football, and uh, when

592
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 2: my auntie was in fifth grade, I signed him up.

593
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 3: And when he was in fifth grade, he was like

594
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 3: a little pudgy.

595
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, and man, he went from that to like shoulders

596
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,479
Speaker 2: back and like he hit the round shoulders a little bit.

597
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 2: Fifth grade that summer he was like, I play football.

598
00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 2: He loved it. He loved it. He loved practice. To

599
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 2: this day, he loves practice. And I think it goes

600
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:16,480
Speaker 2: from from from back.

601
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 5: Then starting early, Yeah, I think, yeah. I just think

602
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 5: it's a little later than the other sports, that's all.

603
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 4: But I think high schools.

604
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,200
Speaker 5: Obviously, Spags is a legend, so it's tough to disagree

605
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 5: with him, but I think that's a little things later

606
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:29,720
Speaker 5: because understanding.

607
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 3: He's the greatest, He is a legend. But I tell

608
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 3: him he's crazy.

609
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 2: Uh do you recommend reclassing? And what is the best

610
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 2: age to reclass Yeah?

611
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 5: So look, I tell people these days to do it

612
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:53,240
Speaker 5: earlier if they're born like after May, just because like

613
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 5: that development. Like there's a kid who's born in September

614
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 5: and they're in the same grade. He's almost he's nine

615
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 5: months older than them. So I say May birthdays on always.

616
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 4: That's just me. Do it early.

617
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,080
Speaker 5: Do it you know when you you know, if you

618
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 5: give your kids drawing the sports early on, I would say,

619
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 5: do it in kindergarten, first grade.

620
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 4: But in today's landscape, it's more than ever.

621
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 5: If your kid wants to play collegiate sports, it's difficult.

622
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:22,600
Speaker 4: This transfer portal has changed the game.

623
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,680
Speaker 5: It used to be a lot of potential. You know,

624
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 5: we want them younger because we can mold them more

625
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 5: and they have more upside. But that was when people

626
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 5: were staying longer and they stayed at one school longer.

627
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 4: Now it's the opposite.

628
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 5: Now it's you know, just transfer culture and in college,

629
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 5: so it's trickling down obviously, so they're just reclassing thing

630
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 5: that is becoming more and more. I think it's important

631
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 5: because it's an investment, and especially you know, what's the

632
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 5: rush to get to what to you know, to get

633
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 5: to work right. You're trying to figure out how to

634
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 5: you know, play the sport you love and do it

635
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 5: at the highest level, especially for kids who are passionate

636
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:02,240
Speaker 5: about it. So and then there's academic reasons, there's maturity reasons,

637
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 5: you know, the age gap, like I talked about, like

638
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 5: just the birthdays, how they fall because you could be

639
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 5: a full year behind and kids develop at different ages.

640
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 5: So it's important. So I'm good with it now. I

641
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 5: think it's but not always Like if you're a September

642
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 5: kid and you're the oldest, I don't think you should

643
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 5: do you know, shouldn't have to do it right. But again,

644
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 5: every situation is different. Everyone matures, different academics you know,

645
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 5: hit at different times. So I just think you should

646
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 5: be open to it, and you know, I think it

647
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 5: should be something that's on your radar, which before it

648
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 5: was very uncommon. I think it's going through waves with

649
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 5: me as an athletic director. Was very common, then kind

650
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:43,040
Speaker 5: of stopped, and now it's very common again. So I

651
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 5: just think it's something that you should look at and

652
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 5: you kind of evaluate. It should be something that definitely

653
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 5: you think about.

654
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 2: I can just tell you it's a parent, like my

655
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:55,880
Speaker 2: here's my question to you is what's the big deal?

656
00:32:56,320 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 2: Like at some point now no I will rush?

657
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 4: What's the rush?

658
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 2: Well, that's my point is like you're you're like with

659
00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 2: like with why am I? Why am I rushing to

660
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 2: kick my kid out the house?

661
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 5: And if you can help your kid long term right

662
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 5: or short like, why not do that? Like, like you

663
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 5: you can see the the you know, kids might not

664
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:20,680
Speaker 5: want to do it right away, but you can see

665
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 5: the further down. Like the kids, you know, they're more

666
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,360
Speaker 5: short term what's going on?

667
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 3: Right?

668
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 5: So I think as parents you can see the long

669
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 5: game and you know, you've seen the workforce and stuff

670
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 5: like that.

671
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 4: So I think it makes sense.

672
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:37,360
Speaker 2: And again I think boys, more so than girls, boys

673
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 2: mature later.

674
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,479
Speaker 3: I mean that's a fact, oh for sure.

675
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 2: And you know, having one more year onder year roof.

676
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think that's a big deal. Before

677
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:48,960
Speaker 2: we go they go off to college. I think you're

678
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,520
Speaker 2: giving them a gift. I think they're more equipped to

679
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 2: handle it. Forget about sports for a second.

680
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:56,840
Speaker 5: This is just you know, mentally, Like I said, the

681
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 5: academic site mentally had maturity wise everyone's and a different

682
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 5: time clock.

683
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 4: So I think it's it's really helpful.

684
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:07,000
Speaker 5: And again it's not for everybody, but me personally.

685
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:07,880
Speaker 4: I think it's helpful.

686
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 2: All right. As always we do. We get to three questions.

687
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 2: I have twenty of them. I think I set you

688
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 2: ten of them.

689
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 3: We'll save some more babies. We'll say the more for

690
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 3: next week.

691
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 4: We'll push through.

692
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:26,840
Speaker 3: I got. Parents can be saying, what do you do

693
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,480
Speaker 3: you ask my question? I got? All right, we have

694
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:31,240
Speaker 3: to do it longer. Uh.

695

Speaker 2: Let's take a look because we are winding down the

713
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:44,759
Speaker 2: high school basketball season as well. Where are we when

714
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 2: it comes to our top ten? I think you nailed

715
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:51,799
Speaker 2: it to Our preseason was pretty spot on. I think

716
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:52,680
Speaker 2: you nailed it, buddy.

717
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:55,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, our preseason, so we you know, we came out

718
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:59,320
Speaker 5: e early little research. We looked at the different rankings

719
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,839
Speaker 5: and you know, we had our project in il top ten,

720
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,319
Speaker 5: which is a little bit of everything combined and kind

721
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,400
Speaker 5: of a little bit what we know insider information, and

722
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 5: we compiled it. So from our top ten for the season,

723
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,799
Speaker 5: eight of them finishing in the top twenty five, and

724
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:17,359
Speaker 5: five of them still really are in our top ten

725
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:21,360
Speaker 5: and the top two two out of top three of

726
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,799
Speaker 5: ranked one and two. So we did a really good

727
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 5: job with preseason rankings of the high school nationally. Now

728
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 5: there's still some games left, there's a lot of state playoffs.

729
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:35,359
Speaker 5: We're about in the semi to state final range, so

730
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,880
Speaker 5: this could change. But from the regular season and like

731
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:41,200
Speaker 5: heading into the final weeks, we wanted to kind of

732
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 5: tap back in see how our teams did. So the

733
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,319
Speaker 5: team that we didn't have in our top ten, we'll

734
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 5: go number ten is Prolific Prep. Now, this is a

735
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 5: coach team that's coached by Jermaine O'Neil and oh wow,

736
00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:01,880
Speaker 5: but they're like a prep school. Yeah yeah, he's building

737
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 5: a strong team out of Florida.

738
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:05,760
Speaker 4: Prolific Prep.

739
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 5: But they're you know, they played eighteen games and they

740
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 5: didn't get the you know, it's harder for these teams

741
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 5: that aren't a part of the league their state associations

742
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,160
Speaker 5: to build out these schedules. So we have them coming

743
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:21,239
Speaker 5: in at number ten. Wassatch Academy out of Utah. Now

744
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 5: they've been in power for the last I would say

745
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,480
Speaker 5: five to ten years, and they're getting elite talent out

746
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 5: of there pretty much yearly. Number eight, who wasn't our

747
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 5: top ten wheeler out of Georgia.

748

Speaker 4: Elite team, they've.

749
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 5: Been, you know, a top team, they've been, you know,

00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,160
