But yeah, an incredible year for us. A 34 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 3: lot of memories were made, so pretty awesome. 35 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 2: Like you said, Mitch has been fanboying about this interview 36 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,479 Speaker 2: for like two weeks now.

I'm sure you're 56 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 2: tired of hearing about all your stats numbers, but we're 57 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 2: gonna do it anyway. I'm going to read somebody's off. 58 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 2: So you scored the most points through one hundred career 59 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 2: games in the history of Division one men's or women's 60 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 2: college basketball. You had one hundred and ninety one points 61 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 2: and sixty assists during the NCAA Tournament and you were 62 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 2: the only player in tournament history to record a forty 63 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 2: point triple double. What goes through your mind when you 64 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 2: hear all these things, especially now that you've had some 65 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 2: time to process it. 66 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,679 Speaker 3: Oh. I mean, honestly, I still feel like it really 67 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,239 Speaker 3: hasn't all sunk in just the whole tournament run and 68 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 3: even the entire season. But I tell everybody, it definitely 69 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 3: helps when you get to play the maximum number of 70 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 3: games in a season to get numbers like that, because 71 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 3: we made it to the Big Ten tournament championship, so 72 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 3: you got the maximum number there, and then we made 73 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 3: it to the national championship, so that certainly helps your stats. 74 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 3: But I think more than anything, it was just a 75 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 3: you know, tremendous run, and I think the excitement around 76 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 3: women's basketball was the coolest thing for myself. I mean, 77 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 3: I'm sure you guys saw the pictures, but the amount 78 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 3: of people at the Final four supporting women's basketball, you know, 79 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 3: it hasn't always been like that, so I think that's 80 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 3: the coolest part. But you know, obviously it was a 81 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 3: lot of fun. The forty point triple double to go 82 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 3: to the Final four. I don't think you could write 83 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 3: it really any better. And we kind of built, you know, 84 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 3: a good lead, so we weren't super nervous at the 85 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 3: end of the game, which was really nice. We could 86 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 3: kind of you know, enjoy celebrating and reaching the final four. 87 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 3: So that was awesome. But I mean, I think Hawkeye 88 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 3: fans were just incredible, and I think, you know, Chiefs 89 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 3: fans are the same way. That's what the fandom's all about, 90 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 3: you know, supporting your team like no other. So it 91 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 3: was a special run. And like I said, I still 92 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 3: really don't think it's set in fully. 93 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: Well, that's why this Defending the Kingdom is going to 94 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 1: bring you out as one of the top Chiefs fans ever, 95 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: because the Chiefs Kingdom was pulling for you too. Even 96 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 1: the Iowa State fans that are Chief Kingdom fans, including 97 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: Brad Gees are vice president for communications here in the building. 98 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: But let's get skiate into this chief fandom here. How 99 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 1: did you become a chief fan and how big a 100 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: Chiefs fan are you? 101 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:37,920 Speaker 3: Honestly, it started with my dad. He was a big 102 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 3: Kansas City Chiefs fan. So you know, my older brother 103 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 3: was then a Kansas City Chiefs fan, and then I 104 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,839 Speaker 3: wanted to do whatever my older brother did, so I 105 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 3: was basically just tagging along with him. We had like 106 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 3: the fake like play helmets that were Kansas City Chiefs 107 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 3: growing up, and I was super competitive with my older brother, 108 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 3: so we would like put those on and go in 109 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 3: the front yard and like tackle each other. And my 110 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 3: mom has a bunch of home videos of it and stuff. 111 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,919 Speaker 3: But we also had like a Chiefs vending machine in 112 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 3: our basement, Like it was kind of this weird like 113 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 3: vending machine thing. But no, the fandom was huge. We 114 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 3: always were Chiefs fans, even you know, way back when 115 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,159 Speaker 3: they weren't as good obviously as they are now. But 116 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,239 Speaker 3: we also have a lot of family in Kansas City, 117 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 3: so we would always try to go to one game 118 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 3: a year with my cousins, which was super fun memories 119 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 3: growing up. But yeah, you know, it's not something I 120 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 3: just hopped on the bandwagon when we got really really good, don't. 121 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 3: I've always been the true don't worry about that. 122 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: One thing I always liked learning about is like the 123 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 2: first moment or the first game or the player that 124 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 2: really influenced fandom for me. This makes me seem super young, 125 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 2: but I remember a lot of chief seasons, but the 126 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 2: first one I really super closely followed was the two 127 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 2: thousand and five season, and I remember, like yesterday listening 128 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 2: to this guy called Tony Gonzalez touchdown against the New 129 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 2: York Jets at AirLand all those years ago. Do you 130 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 2: have a game or a moment or a player that 131 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 2: you remember from when you were little that really connected 132 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 2: you to the team. 133 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 3: Oh, I don't know about I was so a player, 134 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 3: But I have this one moment I vividly remember when 135 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 3: I was with my cousins at a game. This I 136 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 3: must have been pretty young, but we had seats in 137 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 3: like two separate areas, and one of the areas was 138 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 3: like fifty yard line, like lower bowl, and then the 139 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 3: other one was like the third bowl, and I got 140 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 3: selected to be in the top seats, and I remember 141 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 3: just throwing a huge fit about it, like I was balling, 142 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 3: like I was so mad that the most of my 143 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 3: cousins were down like super close to the field and 144 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 3: high somehow had to go all the way up top. 145 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 3: So that's like one vivid memory, and I'm pretty sure 146 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 3: my mom was not happy about that, Like she was 147 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 3: just annoyed by me crying, couldn't enjoy the game. But now, 148 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 3: when I came this past year. I had the nice 149 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 3: seats where you could go inside, which was good because 150 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 3: it was freezing at the game I came to, so 151 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 3: that was good. But that's like my one vivid memory 152 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 3: of when I was younger. 153 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,239 Speaker 1: Okay, you have two brothers, Blake and Colin. Where did 154 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: and Blake's at quarterback at Iowa State by the way, 155 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: so that's makes for some interesting discussion when we talked. 156 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 1: I don't know the Hivey Syhawk Trophy, but where did 157 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 1: Blake and Colin get to set that game? 158 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 3: I think Blake was Blake was down with my other 159 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 3: older boy cousins by like the field area. I think 160 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 3: Colin was up with me because he was too young 161 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 3: to even remember, I'm sure, but yeah, that's why I 162 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 3: was the most mad, because I was like, how do 163 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 3: they all my older boy cousins get to do this? 164 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 3: And I wanted to do whatever they were and they 165 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 3: wanted nothing to do with me. That's why I got 166 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 3: picked on. I got bullied. But I give that a 167 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 3: lot of credit for who I am, because you know, 168 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 3: at family events, we'd always be out in the front yard, 169 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 3: playing basketball, playing whatever, and they did not take it 170 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 3: easy out on me. It usually ended in tears, so 171 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 3: pretty similar situation at the Chiefs games. 172 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 2: You've touched on this a bit, but how much of 173 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 2: a family deal was this for you growing up where 174 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 2: it's Sunday, everyone gets around the TV and watches the 175 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 2: Chiefs game. 176 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, it was always a big deal. My dad 177 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 3: always had them on, whether we were in the basement, 178 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,239 Speaker 3: whether we were upstairs. A lot of times my family 179 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 3: would be cooking. My mom is like the best chef 180 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 3: of all time, so she would oftentimes make really good 181 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 3: food while we were watching. But that's what I really 182 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 3: looked forward to most on Sundays. You know, there wasn't 183 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 3: obviously college sports, but you know, we would be watching 184 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 3: the Chiefs and I would be upset if they lost, 185 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 3: and I still am, like every Sunday, that's what usually 186 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 3: the brightest part of my day is turned it on 187 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 3: the TV and watching the Chiefs. And I don't know, 188 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 3: I think it's kind of similar to how I play 189 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 3: as you know, offensive firepower. It's exciting, it's not you know, 190 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 3: usually what you see on the football field is just 191 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 3: so many different exciting plays, and that's kind of how 192 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 3: I play basketball too, So I think that's why I'm 193 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 3: kind of drawn to it in a way. 194 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: Well, you've been compared to Patrick Mahomes's game. We'll get 195 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:35,600 Speaker 1: into that in a second. And I just talked to 196 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: Patrick about you actually a couple of weeks ago when 197 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: we were in Tyler, Texas, but you mentioned coming to 198 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: a game every year. You actually got to come to 199 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 1: the Seattle game on Christmas Eve? Okay, how did you 200 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: work that out? And it was one of the coldest 201 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: games in Arrowhead Stadium Geha Field at Arrowhead Stadium history. 202 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I definitely picked the wrong game because it's absolutely freezing, 203 00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 3: but it was still a really, really good time and 204 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 3: obviously Christmas Eve, so you know, I had a break 205 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 3: from basketball in the middle of basketball season, so we 206 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 3: had to definitely make it over for a game. And 207 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 3: my guy Chris Jones had the hook up with the 208 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 3: tickets and then Brett Viach got us on the field, 209 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 3: which my brothers were just like just in a daze. 210 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,079 Speaker 3: They thought it was the coolest thing of all time, 211 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 3: which was super cool. And my dad, he's my dad's 212 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 3: also a super big Royals fan and I probably told 213 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 3: you that. So obviously we were right next to the 214 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,679 Speaker 3: Royal Stadium, so they were loving it. But I had 215 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 3: on like three layers. I had like footwarmers in my shoes, 216 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 3: hand warmers, but no, it was super cool. I gotta 217 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 3: sign Chris Jones jersey. It's hanging up in my room 218 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 3: back home in Des Moines, so that's pretty cool. But no, 219 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 3: he's awesome and honestly a lot of the guys Chris Patrick, 220 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,679 Speaker 3: they've reached out to me since my seasons ended, and 221 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 3: even you know, through our journey throughout the tournament, and 222 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 3: I know they were supporting and watching. I think Chris 223 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 3: is one of the biggest iowamen's basketball fans now, so 224 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,719 Speaker 3: that's pretty cool. But yeah, we picked a really, really 225 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 3: cold game to come. 226 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: To and he's also loving it. As a Mississippi State 227 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: guy that you beat South Carolina, so he was always 228 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 1: down with that. Yeah as well. So I mean Deucet, 229 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 1: So I gotta come clean here because I've known coach 230 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: Blueter a long time. She's amazing, and that whole staff, 231 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: it's all those gals. Did you sneak away or did 232 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 1: you get some time? And she's going, oh my gosh, 233 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: Caitlin's there and it's minus ten, like she's gonna get 234 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 1: bronchitis like get home wrapper and bubble rapp. Yeah. 235 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 3: No, she she gives us a good chunk of like 236 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 3: like four days off around Christmas. So she was actually 237 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 3: excited I was going to the game. You know. She 238 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 3: kind of was like, you need to get away and 239 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 3: do something fun with your family, which was really awesome 240 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 3: of her. So, yeah, it was a fun little trip 241 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 3: for the fam. I know, we woke up really early 242 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 3: because what was that It was an earlier game, wasn't it. 243 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: Yes, it was one of the rare noon games we had. 244 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was a noon game, but I was trying 245 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 3: to go between inside and outside, so I wasn't getting 246 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 3: super cold and super sick, but you know, I was 247 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 3: super bundled up. And No, it was a fun, fun game. 248 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 3: Maybe maybe come to a warmer one this year before 249 00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:59,559 Speaker 3: basketball season kicks off, And that. 250 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: Was the game I banged the drum and did the 251 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,959 Speaker 1: first couple of trash at the top. I would have 252 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: gladly shared that duty with you if I'd have known 253 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: you were there. 254 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 3: Got it? We got next season? 255 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 1: There we go, there we go. We're in Kaitlyn Clark 256 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: banging the drum. 257 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 2: I think it'd be awesome. Maybe a September game. 258 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I remember watching that. I'm like hitting my dad. 259 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 3: I'm like, Mitch's calling the game from up there. 260 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: He's crazy. 261 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 2: We thought, well, I think it's great that your brothers 262 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,199 Speaker 2: would bully you growing up. And then all of a sudden, 263 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 2: you get a phone call. Hey, guys, it's Chris Jones. 264 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 2: You want to go to the Chiefs game? Like it's 265 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 2: going to be awesome? 266 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 1: Right? 267 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, no, my brothers they're now my biggest fans. 268 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 3: And even though my brother was playing football at Iowa State, 269 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 3: he's not graduating this spring with his masters, but so 270 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:42,959 Speaker 3: he'll be done, so that'll be really weird that I 271 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 3: won't have, you know, a sibling in the family playing 272 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 3: football anymore. But no, they thought it was the coolest thing. 273 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 3: My brother was just all about it. He would have 274 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 3: stayed for three games in the freezing cold, that's how 275 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 3: much he loved Chiefs. But yeah, I know they're they're 276 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 3: the best. They're my biggest fans. I'm sure you guys 277 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 3: saw them on ESPN. ESPN loves to put them, put 278 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 3: them on the camera. They get really into it, and 279 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 3: you know, they have my back, which is like the 280 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 3: coolest thing, you know, I grew up competing against them 281 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 3: and they probably made me the person I am. But 282 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 3: you know now they're my biggest fans. They travel around 283 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,959 Speaker 3: to all my games, so pretty cool memories I get 284 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 3: to share with them. 285 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 2: That's awesome. Well, you mentioned that you had a bit 286 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 2: of a break and that's why you were able to 287 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 2: come to the Seattle game. You did not have a 288 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 2: break during the playoffs for the Chiefs because you were 289 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 2: in the thick of your Big ten schedule. So the 290 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 2: Monday after the win over the Jaguars and the playoffs 291 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 2: for the Chiefs and heading into the AFC tititle game, 292 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 2: we were all on Patrick Mahomes's ankle watch all week. 293 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 2: But you had some games to worry about. You played 294 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 2: number two Ohio State on the road and one. The 295 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 2: day before the AFC title game, you played Nebraska and one, 296 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 2: and then a few days after the AFC Championship game 297 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 2: you played number eight Maryland and one. The point is 298 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,679 Speaker 2: you were really busy during this playoff run. Were you 299 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 2: able to follow it at all? And if so, how 300 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 2: did you maintain your sanity throughout it? 301 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 3: Oh? Yeah, I always make time to watch. And also 302 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 3: we have another like huge, huge, Chiefs fan on our team, 303 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 3: and one of our managers is a huge Chiefs fan. 304 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 3: He actually came to the game with our family. His 305 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 3: family came when we came to the Seattle game. So 306 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 3: it's fun. I get to share those moments with my 307 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 3: teammates too. So we're always making time to watch the games. 308 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 3: And even if the game starts during practice or something 309 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 3: like that, like we'll go to our meal after practice 310 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,080 Speaker 3: and have make sure the managers turn all the TV's on. 311 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 3: But no, I always make sure to watch. But I 312 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 3: think we actually played during one of the games, and 313 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 3: I remember when I first got back to the locker room, 314 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 3: I was like Mollie, like, what was the score? 315 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: What was the final score? 316 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 3: Like did we win? Like it was like one of 317 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 3: the first things I was checking in. She like, she's 318 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 3: a huge Chiefs fan, Mollie David. She came off the 319 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 3: bench for us, was one of like our six sixth 320 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 3: player off the bench, and she like always knows she 321 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 3: knows all the stats. Like we'll be on the way 322 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,319 Speaker 3: to the game and she'll like have her phone pulled 323 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:52,280 Speaker 3: up watching the Chiefs game and we're gonna go tip 324 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 3: off in like an hour and a half. And she's 325 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 3: dialed into the Chiefs game. So no, it's awesome, but yeah, 326 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,599 Speaker 3: I was definitely able to follow. Then obviously went in 327 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl. Nothing like it. Wish I could have 328 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 3: been at that, but it was a little busy. 329 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 1: Let me get to that. But can't you hear all 330 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 1: the Kingdom defenders around there going, Yeah, that's what we want. 331 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: Those those are our kind of fans. Even your competitors 332 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 1: like Sarah Beth Geldner plays. I played at Drake. She 333 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 1: just a great three point shooter, made the three pointer 334 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: to tie it against Louisville NANCA tournament. She's a gigantic 335 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: Chase fan. I mean, could there be even during a 336 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: game like she's Guarden, You're going, hey, did you see 337 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: the play Mahomes made? 338 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 3: Or I mean I didn't know she was a huge 339 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 3: Chiefs fan. But Drake's coming to our place next year, 340 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 3: so I'm definitely gonna have to ask her about that 341 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 3: mid game. Maybe she'll be guarding me. But no, obviously, 342 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 3: Drake is the school basically that I grew up watching, 343 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 3: so big fans of them. They took us to overtime 344 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 3: this year. That was not an easy game at Drake, 345 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 3: But yeah, she had a huge one versus Louisville. And 346 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 3: it's kind of funny because then we went on to 347 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 3: play Louisville to go to the to the Final four 348 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 3: and we beat him. So I didn't know that, but 349 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 3: now you gave me a good point to talk about 350 00:14:58,040 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 3: during the next time we play. 351 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: Him if you do it during the game going, hey, 352 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: did you see Okay? Now it's February the twelfth. We're 353 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: in Glendale, Arizona. Matt and I are getting ready Chiefs 354 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: against the Philadelphia Eagles. Can the Chiefs win Super Bowl 355 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 1: fifty seven? You were playing that day? What was that 356 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: day like for you and your Brotherssh? 357 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 3: Who were I don't even remember is Rutgers? 358 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: I looked it up. You guys won by fifty Oh okay, 359 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: and I think it's Routers because Pacheco would come in 360 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 1: here and like dash my head. Michael Burton I got 361 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 1: Chris was Yeah. 362 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 3: They were a really young team, so we played them 363 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 3: at home. I think it was an earlier day game, 364 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 3: so I was definitely home by the time I got 365 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 3: to watch the Chiefs game. And some of our men's 366 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 3: basketball players are really really big Eagles fans, so I 367 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 3: was a lot of crap all week are, so I 368 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 3: needed my Chiefs to back me up. It was a really, 369 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 3: really big deal. And then obviously Rihanna at the halftime show. 370 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 3: You couldn't ask for a better super Bowl win, honestly, 371 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 3: but I think it was one of the best Super 372 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 3: Bowls of all time. A tremendous game. You know, I 373 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 3: was never flustered Patch. I knew his ankle was gonna 374 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 3: be fineal along. I wasn't worried. Some of our players 375 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 3: were hurt. Doesn't bother us Patrick. Patrick just just gets 376 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 3: the job done. He's a man. 377 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: We love the halftime shows you did because it gave 378 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: extra time for Patrick's ankle to Yeah, so yeah, we 379 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: will think her forever. 380 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 3: Yeah. 381 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: Yeah. 382 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 3: Is the halftime show longer when you go to the 383 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 3: Super Bowl, or is like halftime longer? 384 00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 1: It is like five times longer. Yeah, it's thirty minutes, 385 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 1: and we petitioned for it to be like even double 386 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: longer this year. It's like, just wait till Patrick's ankle's 387 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 1: ready and then yeah, another one more song, one more song. 388 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 3: That's awesome. 389 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 2: So the Chiefs win the Super Bowl. It was obviously incredible. 390 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 2: You're still going on with your season and then on 391 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 2: February twenty sixth, you nail a three to beat number 392 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 2: two Indiana as time expires. Just an amazing moment, an 393 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 2: amazing play. George just Kittle tweets at you, and then 394 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes, the MVP of the Super Bowl, one of 395 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 2: your favorite players, obviously tweets it you and calls you 396 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 2: a dog a dawg. What was it like getting that notification? 397 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 3: That's pretty cool anytime somebody like that tweets at you, 398 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:08,679 Speaker 3: even George Kittle, Patrick Mahomes, really whoever. It is like, 399 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,439 Speaker 3: those are the people you still look up to and 400 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 3: idolize and think, you know, are the coolest people in 401 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 3: the world. And obviously, no matter the spotlight I'm in, 402 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 3: I always still will have people I idolize, whether it's 403 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 3: in the NBA, w NBA, NFL, things like that. So 404 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 3: it kind of took me back for a second. And 405 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 3: obviously George Kittle and Iowa, Iowa grad was a beast 406 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,479 Speaker 3: here and actually his wife played basketball for the Iowa Hawkeyes, 407 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 3: which was which is a super cool, fun fact too, 408 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 3: but super cool. And I think honestly Iowa fans I've 409 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 3: made them even Chiefs fans because they know how much 410 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 3: I love the Chiefs. So they're like, well, we got 411 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 3: to watch whatever Caitlyn watches. And now all of them 412 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 3: are saying, we got to get Patrick Mahomes to a game. So, uh, 413 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 3: before I graduate, we got to make that happen. Mitch, 414 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 3: you got to be there too, Both of you have 415 00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 3: to be there.

The twenty twenty three schedule 419 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,679 Speaker 1: will come out right after the draft. It might be 420 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: the most epic home schedule in the history of the 421 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs. It's phenomenal. Are you kind of come 422 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: to a game? 423 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 3: We got the Eagles at home, don't we? 424 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 1: Yes? 425 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 3: Right, I'm going to try to make that one. Hopefully 426 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,360 Speaker 3: it's at a good point in the season, but yeah, 427 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 3: I'm definitely gonna try to make a game. I'm going 428 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 3: to try to come to one before basketball starts, and 429 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 3: then you know, hopefully we can do the one over Christmas. 430 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 3: If we play over Christmas, the family and I. 431 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,960 Speaker 1: Need to send a permission slip to Lisa Bluter. You 432 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 1: do out. 433 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 2: No, to be excused, you kind of mentioned this, but 434 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 2: being in Iowa, that's really a battleground area for the 435 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 2: Chiefs because there's Packers fans up there, there's Vikings fans, 436 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 2: fans of other teams, and you kind of said this already, 437 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 2: but have you kind of converted some people the Chiefs 438 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 2: fans now over the last few years. 439 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I feel like I have. I feel like 440 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 3: I've made our whole team Chiefs fans. Like you said, like, 441 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 3: there's a lot of Vikings, there's a lot of Packers, 442 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 3: and I'm like, even a lot of Bears, a lot 443 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 3: of especially in Iowa City, there's a lot of Chicago people, 444 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,679 Speaker 3: so a lot of Bears fans, and I'm like, guys, 445 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 3: come on, you got to cheer for a team that's really, 446 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:09,400 Speaker 3: really good and consistently in the Super Bowl. So no, 447 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 3: I've turned quite a few people in the Chiefs fans, 448 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,399 Speaker 3: and I think they honestly enjoy it because watching the 449 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 3: Chiefs is exciting, Like it's exciting, exciting style of football, 450 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 3: plays a run, things like that. So I think it's 451 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 3: an easy draw for my teammates to want to watch 452 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,480 Speaker 3: because I feel like we play basketball kind of in 453 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,639 Speaker 3: that same manner. But no, I'm always trying to convert 454 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 3: people into big Chiefs fans, or if they won't convert, 455 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 3: I'll just talk a bunch of crap to them about 456 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:34,399 Speaker 3: whatever they like. 457 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: Honestly, it is like watching you guys play, and you 458 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: play in specific, is like watching the Chiefs play NFL football. Okay, 459 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:44,479 Speaker 1: we'll close it out here, but I know Veach listens 460 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 1: to you. And here we are. We're getting ready for 461 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: the draft here, we're just days away. So what advice 462 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: would you give General Manager Bret Veach on this draft? 463 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 3: Oh? Here's the thing. He's the best GM in all 464 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 3: of football. I do not think he needs any of 465 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 3: my advice. But shoot, I don't know. If there's a 466 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 3: hawkkey left on the board, I think he should take them. 467 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 3: We got some good players. 468 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: There are a bunch of Hawkeyes again, because you're all 469 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 1: over the NFL. Like every NFL team, Danon Hughes does 470 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: color for us. You know, Hiawa Hawkeye guy, and it's 471 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 1: like you guys have like three on every team. 472 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 2: It seems like Josh Klingler, yeah the guy. 473 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, Iowa football just produces NFL products. It's pretty incredible. Uh, 474 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 3: They're fun team to watch, and honestly, I'm pretty good 475 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 3: friends with a lot of them and a lot of 476 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 3: them that are in the NFL Draft this year, so 477 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,840 Speaker 3: it's gonna be cool to see, you know, where the 478 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,360 Speaker 3: draft takes them. And obviously I think it's super cool. 479 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 3: It's in Kansas City, and like I said, I have 480 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 3: family there, so they're super stoked about Draft weekend in 481 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 3: Kansas City. 482 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 2: Like if, like Lucas van Ness slips down, you never know. Yeah, 483 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 2: this is my age. 484 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 3: I remember being in the dorms with him. He's an 485 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 3: awesome guy. But I think he'll go. He'll go pretty high, 486 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 3: which will be really cool for him. He's a beast. 487 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 3: He's a beast. 488 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 2: And last question for you, speaking of the draft, are 489 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 2: you gonna make it down here to Kansas for the Draft? 490 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 3: I actually might.

So I 495 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 3: heard the place is going to be crazy.
