You gotta have 9 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 2: work at you gotta be willing to work when other 10 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 2: people are not. That's that's that's really it. I was 11 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:36,160 Speaker 2: very fortunate to not have to grind the way that 12 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 2: Dan Beyer did early on coming up because at being 13 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,280 Speaker 2: a former college basketball player and a fairly notable one. 14 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 2: I got a really good shot in Oklahoma City, making 15 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 2: way more money than you normally do in your first 16 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,479 Speaker 2: radio show, and then I was on like a rocket 17 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 2: rocket ship to go to ESPN a year later. But 18 00:00:55,760 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 2: I do think that it's when you do a radio show, 19 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 2: a TV show, when you do anything. Now, coaching a college, 20 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 2: BEUS team, staff is everything. Surrounding yourself with really good people. 21 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 2: I came here eight years ago. Ryan Music was my producer. 22 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 2: I didn't know Ryan from Adam. What do you remember 23 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 2: Ryan about when we first started linking up and working. 24 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 3: I will tell you, Doug, it was a great pleasure 25 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,199 Speaker 3: to get to work with you and launch the show. 26 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 3: And one of my favorite things about you was, after 27 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 3: being your producer and only knowing you for about three months, 28 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,320 Speaker 3: you traveled to Israel to coach the Jewish national team 29 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:36,960 Speaker 3: and you asked if I could drop you off at 30 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 3: the airport. I said, no problem, that's not an issue. 31 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 3: And then as we arrived at the Burbank airport, you said, 32 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 3: all right, here's my tesla and have fun for the 33 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 3: next three months. And I was like, okay, I guess 34 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 3: I have myself a brand new Tesla for the next 35 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 3: month or so. While you were in Israel, when I got. 36 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 2: Greg, you said you said it shakes it one twenty. 37 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: I was like, dude, easy, Now you're like, yeah, it 38 00:01:58,680 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 2: shakes it one twenty on. 39 00:01:59,560 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 4: What's going on? 40 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 5: Yeah? 41 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 6: Oh me either. 42 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 3: I thought Elon had this whole thing figured out with 43 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 3: aerodynamics and rocket ships, but hey, no, listen, Tug. It 44 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 3: was nothing but a pleasure. And obviously the great people 45 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 3: of Green Bay have a good one and know that 46 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 3: you'll only do great things as you lean into this 47 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 3: and purduce the building a great program. 48 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 2: Here's the big question we want to ask, Hey, you're 49 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 2: now Collins producer. Do you take his picks as we 50 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 2: do and bet the opposite? Do you fade all of 51 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 2: his picks in his blazing five? If so, you would 52 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 2: be a multi millionaire right now. 53 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 4: For this year. 54 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 3: Well, Doug, the fact that I am still Collins producer, 55 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 3: if that map checks out, probably not actually the case. 56 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:44,839 Speaker 3: It's kind of like if you'd won the power Ball, 57 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 3: you'd probably never see me again. 58 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 2: So well, listen, from humble beginnings, you've become a star 59 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 2: from seasun as a volleyball player to my producer now 60 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,359 Speaker 2: living in Chicago, living the high life, doing volume stuff 61 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 2: and calling stuff.

I think 95 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 2: I'll do it now. My dad died eleven years ago, 96 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 2: and you know, I mean, like anyone's dad, I would 97 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 2: think again, how I know is mine? 98 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 4: He's complicated. 99 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,799 Speaker 2: There's things that were great, there were things that weren't. 100 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 2: But we shared a love of sports, obviously basketball specifically, 101 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: but my dad, we love sports. We'd get up every 102 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 2: morning and we had the Orange County Register, the LA Times, 103 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 2: Orange County. He had the New York Post delivered to 104 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 2: our house even though it was three days late, and 105 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 2: USA Today, and then for that short period of time, 106 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 2: wonderful time, the National Sports Daily. Do you guys remember that? 107 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 2: And we'd have the newspapers out and we'd pass them 108 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 2: around and I would we'd look at box scores and 109 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 2: talk sports. That's what we did for breakfast and when 110 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 2: we were in the car. And then it became sports radio, 111 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:57,359 Speaker 2: and uh, to be on ESPN Radio and to hear 112 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 2: the pride in your voice is something that I can't 113 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 2: quite describe, but I think you all can hopefully understand, right, 114 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 2: hopefully understand. And it was always amazing me because my dad, 115 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 2: he's that classic like Jewish parent where it was like, well, 116 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 2: maybe one day you'll have his show as big as Collins, 117 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 2: Like I have my own show on he has to 118 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 2: me right like I'm doing okay. You know, it was 119 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 2: never quite enough, so there was always a hey, that's great, 120 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:37,159 Speaker 2: but there's still more out there for you. When I 121 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 2: was at CBS Sports Radio, I took the job. 122 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:42,839 Speaker 4: Two reasons. 123 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 2: One I wanted to do the Final Four and I 124 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 2: wanted to move back to California. 125 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 4: My dad had had about. 126 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 2: With cancer, with skin cancer, and I just I also 127 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 2: thought I wanted to have a life and I'll never forget. 128 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 2: ESPN had offered me a five year guaranteed contract worth 129 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 2: way more. It was really interesting how they do business. 130 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 2: They tell you six in a months in advance, they 131 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 2: want to re up you like three months in advance. 132 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 2: They lowball you, and then it comes down the last 133 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 2: wire and finally they get to the number that they 134 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 2: should have got to originally. So they got to the 135 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 2: right number. There was just some things missing in it 136 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 2: that I didn't like, and then I would have had 137 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 2: to I was at Foxwoods Casino. I just a couple 138 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 2: of big casinos in Connecticut. Foxwoods is the lesser known 139 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 2: of the two, and husbands and wives and we all 140 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 2: went out. The women were going to a Sarah McLachlan concert. 141 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 2: The guys were just going to go and throw the dice, 142 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 2: have a good time. And I'm walking around the casino 143 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 2: with one of my buddies and he was like, Man, 144 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 2: coach your girls in soccer, first time ever. 145 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 4: That was awesome. You should do it next year. 146 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 2: And I was thinking to myself that I was doing 147 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 2: four to seven radio and for five months out of 148 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 2: the year, I turned off the radio and I'd walk 149 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 2: down the hallway. I'd put on makeup and a tie, 150 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 2: and then I'd do TV until one in the morning. 151 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 2: It was great money, but my kids were going to 152 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 2: school age and I would literally never see them for 153 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 2: five months and I would never see there. I wouldn't 154 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 2: be there in the afternoon for you know, eleven months, 155 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 2: twelve months of the year. So when I took the 156 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 2: CBS deal, the idea was it was twelve to three 157 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 2: radio in California. I would do a nighttime TV show 158 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 2: at night to night, I'd have every afternoon of my kids. 159 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 2: Didn't work out as great as I thought it would 160 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 2: work out, and two years in they moved me back 161 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 2: to New York where I did my show. It was 162 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 2: simulcast CBS Sports Network and CBS Radio, but my dad 163 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 2: was only live for those last I think four months, 164 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 2: and I was furious that they made me move. I 165 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 2: had the conversation with my boss, which I will never 166 00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 2: forgive him for, was, Hey, could I just get six 167 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 2: more months out here? 168 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 4: It's not great. 169 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 2: It's spread to his brain and my boss said, you're 170 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 2: Our business with you is in New York. We're giving 171 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 2: you more money to move to New York. But it 172 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 2: ended up being a blessing because my dad saw me 173 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 2: every day for those four months when I was on TV, 174 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 2: and then we talk on the way home every night 175 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 2: except for the ninety past, and him seeing me reinstilled 176 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 2: something which I know to be true. Radio, real talk 177 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 2: radio is a relationship. The people that are really good 178 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 2: at it. You know about their wives, their kids, their lives, 179 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 2: what they do, what they do on the weekend, not 180 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 2: just sports stuff. And many of you have been with 181 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,439 Speaker 2: me for this ride the whole time, and I appreciate 182 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 2: you and we are friends. We just have never met 183 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 2: in person like There's a kid from with state of 184 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 2: Wisconsin who I wanted really, really bad. He went to 185 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 2: a powerful school, powerful school, and I'm friends with the dad, 186 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 2: but the dad doesn't do We didn't know each other, 187 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 2: but we knew each other because he'd listen to me 188 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 2: on air for years. We're still friends now. He turned 189 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,599 Speaker 2: us down, went to a bigger school. It's all good, 190 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 2: but it's because radio is a relationship, and relationships are 191 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 2: what business is about. You're never going to get in 192 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 2: unless somebody sticks their neck out for you. You're just 193 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 2: not plenty of guys that can talk sports.

You are certainly 261 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 8: the son of a coach because you were very coachable 262 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 8: on air. You listened and were eager to learn. But 263 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 8: I remember your work ethic being so strong that, like 264 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 8: you were saying, you would do radios then go to television. 265 00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 8: But I remember Hayes being born. He was born during 266 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 8: March madness, right, and and you, you know did you 267 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 8: went to the hospital and then raced to get to 268 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 8: be on TV that night and you didn't want to 269 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 8: miss it. And that was you. You would, you would work. 270 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 5: Yourself to the bone. 271 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 8: And another quality I remember about you and that you 272 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 8: still have is your fearlessness. And it is probably the 273 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 8: quality I admire the most about you. You were not 274 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 8: afraid to ask the tough question. I remember a very 275 00:14:58,360 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 8: cantankerous interview with the Late Time. 276 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 5: I mean, look, Borda takes out my momy. 277 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 8: I don't even remember what it was about. But you 278 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,640 Speaker 8: were not afraid to ask a tough question where other 279 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 8: people wouldn't. But also when controversy would find you, you 280 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 8: were not shy to say, hey, here's what happened, let 281 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 8: me explain you would you know, meet it head on? 282 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 8: Most people would try and hide. Not you, And I 283 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 8: think that's an incredibly admirable quality. 284 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 4: I get. 285 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 2: I got my favorite story by a favorite story.

So the way it worked at 288 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 2: ESPN when Louise would come in and she say, hey, 289 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 2: sales wants to know if you'll do a KFC KFC 290 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 2: read uh And I said, I don't know, Louise, I'm 291 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 2: doing I'm doing this big P nine y X campaign. 292 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 2: If I do KFC, I don't know if that works. 293 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 2: And You're like, look, ads, don't run back to back. 294 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 2: I said, how about this? KFC at the time had 295 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 2: grilled chicken, so I said, I'll do it. Can we 296 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 2: do something about grilled chicken, like, I'll see what I 297 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 2: can do. So that's like, I don't know.

But I just got to say that 567 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 5: I am so thrilled that you've got this opportunity to 568 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 5: chase your dreams and become a college basketball coach. I 569 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 5: kind of went through the peaks and valley to hide 570 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 5: and lows with you, And there were some times back 571 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 5: when I worked with you, I was like, man, he 572 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,479 Speaker 5: is he leaving me high and dry here, and you know, 573 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 5: going to to become a coach at various stages and 574 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 5: you know they didn't come to fruition, but certainly glad 575 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:21,959 Speaker 5: that you got this opportunity. 576 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 2: Think about we've been friends long enough. You were a 577 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 2: long suffering Atlanta Falcons, Georgia Dog, Georgia Bulldog sports fans. 578 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 5: Still long suffering Falcons. 579 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 2: Yes, it's fine, Okay, Braves have won a World Series, 580 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 2: Dogs won two national championships, might well win third? 581 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 5: Correct? 582 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 4: What are your thoughts on their chances this year? 583 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 5: I think that George's got as good a chance as 584 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 5: any other team in the college football payoff, right, Like 585 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 5: I don't think I don't think this Georgia team is 586 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 5: as good as the ones that won the national title. 587 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 5: And I don't really think there's any dominant team. I 588 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 5: think people may have thought Ohio State was that team, 589 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 5: but I don't think that they are. And so I 590 00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 5: think that it's a wide open field. Georgia gets to 591 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 5: gets to experience the first round by and I think 592 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 5: that gout as good a show as anybody. 593 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 4: I mean, it used to be. Listen, it used to 594 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 4: be a yearly thing. Guys. 595 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 2: Where I mean the worst was the super Bowl? Right 596 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 2: that was That was the lowest of I think that 597 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 2: was lower than any other point. 598 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 5: We did the show, the Doug Gottlieb Show in Houston 599 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 5: for a full week when the Falcons were in the 600 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 5: Super Bowl facing the Patriots.
