They have 23 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:28,279 Speaker 1: a big game. 24 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 2: Against Kentucky on Saturday, and you know what we have 25 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 2: coming up for this season for those who didn't listen 26 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:38,039 Speaker 2: last year, we're weekly episodes. We'll record them on Thursday nights. 27 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 2: We'll touch a little bit on a Friday night card 28 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 2: and it's usually a very light card, so if there's 29 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 2: a spot or two we like, we'll mention it, you know, 30 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 2: and then we'll talk about some of the spots we 31 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 2: have circled on Saturdays, and then you know, we'll cover 32 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 2: you know, the major conference tournament previews and the smaller 33 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 2: ones as well March Madness episodes, but we'll we'll fill in, 34 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 2: you know, topics throughout. 35 00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: We're going to take some questions. 36 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 2: But you know, for example, to I spoke with at 37 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 2: p de Buckets, who's the guy that I follow who 38 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 2: knows the A ten really well. So one of the 39 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 2: things that we want to bring to you is weekly 40 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 2: niche interviews with people who follow maybe one conference a 41 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 2: conference special structure, which I think is really valuable, you know, 42 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 2: especially when you know there's three hundred and fifty three 43 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 2: teams and we're trying to keep up with all of 44 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 2: the teams, So getting the perspective of someone that's just 45 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 2: deep into one of the conferences I think could be 46 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 2: really valuable. So we'll get to that in a sack, 47 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 2: but first let's just keep it really broad with a 48 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 2: couple of topics. I'll go around the horn here. What 49 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 2: do you what do you think of this season? In 50 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 2: the fact that it is completely wide open. Everyone would 51 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 2: agree with that, right, I've said there's fifteen to twenty. 52 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 2: If you're in the top fifteen to twenty, maybe twenty 53 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 2: five thirty, you got a shot in March like it's 54 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 2: going to come down the matchups and who's on or 55 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 2: who's off. There's not one team that can just roll 56 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 2: the ball out there and dominate. So I love it personally, 57 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 2: and I think it's great for home dogs or in 58 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,040 Speaker 2: conference play, and you're seeing that all the time. And 59 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 2: I don't think it's great every year, but to have 60 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 2: a year like this, you know, every couple of seasons, 61 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 2: you know, came down to a lot of attrition, and 62 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 2: it's it's. 63 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: Spectacular to me, Mike, what do you think of this season? 64 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 5: It's fantastic. 65 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,959 Speaker 4: It started with everybody hitting the unders right, because the 66 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 4: unders were hitting in a crazy clip like sixty five 67 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 4: percent to start. 68 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 5: Then of course Vegas adjusted and. 69 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 4: I just want to remind everyone the teams that are 70 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 4: hitting that lull either now or shortly, don't be scared 71 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 4: off by them. Because remember Texas Tech and Auburn both 72 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 4: last year had three game losing streaks in conference. So 73 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 4: I agree, man, it's hard to win on the road. 74 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 4: You can see it in the Big Ten. What are 75 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 4: they thirty three and six something like that home team, 76 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 4: So it makes it more exciting. And I'm telling you 77 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 4: the NCAA Tournament's going to be nuts. 78 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 2: Oh, it's going to be bonkers in Colin. There's no 79 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 2: LSU or Clemson or Alabama this year in college basketball. 80 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: So what are your thoughts? Are you? Are you enjoying? Yeah? 81 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 3: I love how wide open it is is to wear 82 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 3: in college football. We couldn't gauge how good LSU was, 83 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 3: we couldn't engage how bad UMass was. It's nice to 84 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 3: have a sport where it's wide open to everybody. And 85 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 3: like Randall said, last year, Texas Tech lost three straight 86 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 3: and I think the one thing we have to key 87 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 3: in is maybe adjusted a defensive efficiency because that's where 88 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 3: you kind of find a good feel of maybe who 89 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 3: is going to be able. 90 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: To make a run here. 91 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 3: As long as you have one star player and you 92 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 3: can play some defense, you could make a run of 93 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 3: March Badness. 94 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 2: Well, speaking of one star, and I wouldn't say that 95 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 2: there's no one on the UMass level. There's there's someone 96 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 2: like a Maryland Eastern Shore at Central Connecticut State the 97 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 2: other Blue Devils that are pretty damn bad. 98 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 1: But I get your point, and yeah, I. 99 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 2: Think to this year, it's just you get in, you 100 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 2: got a shot, and you mentioned a star player. I'll 101 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 2: go through my current futures and who if anybody I'm eyeing, 102 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 2: and I'm curious to get your guys' thoughts at anything. 103 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 2: Before the year, my horse was going to be Louisville, 104 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 2: and I don't love the team. I love them early on, 105 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 2: but they have some flaws. And we're going to get 106 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,720 Speaker 2: the Duke Louisville later on on Saturday, which is the 107 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 2: marquee game. But you know, I've have fifteen to one. 108 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 2: It's you know, as of right now, they're like eleven 109 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 2: to one in some places ten to one. But and 110 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 2: look they got a shot, but their guard play needs 111 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 2: to roof, and uh, we'll get to that shortly. I 112 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 2: also have a piece of Xavier at fifty to one. 113 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 2: They're sitting at sixty one where that team just doesn't 114 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 2: It just looks off to me. Andy thoughts in Xavier Randall, 115 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 2: they just look bad. 116 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. 117 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 4: The thing with Xavier is their home and then when 118 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 4: they go on the road, they're struggling and they're not 119 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 4: making three pointers. So that's the problem. I mean the 120 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 4: other night they went in they got blitzed. So yeah, 121 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 4: Lunch Pale Gang playing hard, rebound Naji Marshall's tremendous, But 122 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 4: I doubt on the road, and we're talking about NCAA 123 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 4: tournament where you got to win on the road usual sites. 124 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 4: I just don't see that happening right now. Yeah, if 125 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 4: they play at the comforts of their home, they can 126 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 4: upsit anyone there. But yeah, they're really struggling. 127 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, team's not deep either. I mean, they got a 128 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 2: length and you think, you know, Marshall Jones scrugs, good, 129 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean they need the shooting variants to 130 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 2: flip around. And in an extreme way, they're shooting close 131 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 2: to twenty nine percent from three sub three hundred in 132 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 2: the country. You know, so those two, you know, I 133 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 2: took long shots on Utah State. I can't figure out 134 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 2: what's going on with Utah State. I mean, I you know, 135 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 2: obviously they had injuries to Keatta early on, and they've 136 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 2: they've had some other injuries that they were dealing with. 137 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 2: But to lose at UNLV and the way they did 138 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 2: come back, not beat San Diego State in a game 139 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 2: I love them in and then they get trucked at 140 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 2: air Force, and you know, it's this team just. 141 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 1: Hasn't been as impressive as I thought. 142 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 2: Maybe they can clean it up and pick it, you know, 143 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 2: because they're gonna need pretty sure, they're going to need 144 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 2: to win their conference tournament, which they certainly can do. 145 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 2: I think that they're clearly the second best team and 146 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 2: or second most talented team in that conference. Randa, any 147 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 2: thoughts there on Utah State. 148 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, Utah State's been confusing to me. I just don't 149 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 4: think that they're totally healthy. And you know, San Diego 150 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 4: State has a nice chance here to go undefeated in 151 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,280 Speaker 4: that conference. So I thought the Utah State game was 152 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 4: sort of going to be an area that they could 153 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 4: get tripped up, but they dominated from start to finish. 154 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 5: Sam Merril just didn't look healthy. 155 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 2: San Diego State was shorthanded coming off a game against Fresno, 156 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 2: you know, a couple of days earlier. They're going to 157 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 2: the altitude in Utah State and they led pretty much 158 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 2: wired a while that game, which is an impressive win 159 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 2: for a San Diego State team that's the only remaining 160 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 2: undefeated team. You got to take it with a grain 161 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 2: of salt because that Utah State. 162 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: Win and what Iowa on. 163 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 2: A neutral court, Creighton on a neutral court, those are 164 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 2: their three best wins. They do definitely do have a 165 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 2: shot to go to feeder Utah State at home again 166 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 2: and then maybe a trip up spot at air Force. 167 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 4: And starting on January twenty six for San Diego State, 168 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 4: they're going to have you and LV away, which will 169 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 4: be tricky New Mexico. Now are Carlton braggone that shouldn't 170 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 4: be that big a deal Away Utah State, they'll be 171 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 4: ready for revenge. And listen, they started one and two 172 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 4: last year in conference, so Utah State could bring it 173 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 4: together again. 174 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 5: Let's not sleep on them. 175 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 4: Of course, they're very well coached, and of course the 176 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 4: game at air Force which is not going to be easy. 177 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 4: So if they get through that four slate of games, 178 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 4: I think they are going to be undefeated heading into 179 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 4: the conference tournament. 180 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,239 Speaker 2: So yeah, Uta State and I have some Saint Mary's 181 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 2: as well. Those are my two long shots. I mean, 182 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 2: I got such some Saint Mary's are two fifty to one. 183 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 2: They're like eighty to one now at some spots, and 184 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 2: it was kind of just, hey, look, maybe they can 185 00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: make a little run and I can hedge. But if 186 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 2: they keep shooting like they're been shooting, they can make 187 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 2: a run. But I don't know if they can sustain that. 188 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 2: The defense is there, they're going to slow the game down. 189 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 2: They can grind it against you. But my horse, the 190 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 2: one that I feel most confident about right now is 191 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 2: Seaton Hall and Miles Palell and I've just there's many 192 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 2: things that I love about this team. And we were 193 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 2: talking about how hard it is to win on the 194 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 2: road because when there's so much parody, you come out 195 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 2: a little flat and against a team in conference at 196 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 2: home and they feed off that crowd we saw with 197 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 2: Auburn Alabama last week. It's tough, but that win last night, 198 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 2: you know. I mean, Seaton Hall's had a couple of 199 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 2: good road wins lately. At the Paul Is a decent 200 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 2: win at Xavier and then at Butler. That's a really 201 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,520 Speaker 2: good win. They were down ten with eighteen to go. 202 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 2: But there's a lot to like about this. It's one 203 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 2: of the longest teams in the nation. They have size 204 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 2: for days and obviously a guy like Miles Powell might 205 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 2: be the best player in the country, could take over 206 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 2: a game at any point in time, you know, fellow 207 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 2: senior guard and McKnight, you know, and then you have 208 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 2: a seven to two kid and Romaro Gill freshman Tyree 209 00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 2: Samuel six' ten. 210 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: Kid he's starting to come on. 211 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 2: That they've been doing this With Mamo kashpiey who's been, 212 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 2: out so he's going to come. Back and it's this 213 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 2: team is really dangerous because of their, size especially because 214 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 2: their senior backcourt led By pale From. Trenton From, trenton 215 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 2: you have, him they could go all the. Way he 216 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,959 Speaker 2: could Put hall in his back against any team in 217 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 2: the country and get a. 218 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,880 Speaker 3: Win besides Having Miles, POWELL i, mean they're twentieth and 219 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 3: tempo in the. Nation that's a result of, steels turnovers 220 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 3: are just upping the pace and they're they're hell to 221 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 3: try and. Defend they're one of the top teams in the. 222 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 3: Nation already that are they have Five quadrant one wins 223 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 3: AND i mean that's tied With oregon And kansas has 224 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,320 Speaker 3: the lead at. SEVEN i, mean there's not a lot 225 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 3: of teams that have as many quality wins A Seaton. 226 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: Hall and they're doing it everywhere on the. Court. 227 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah top tenth in adjusted, deficiency just a defensive 228 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 2: efficiency number nine in. Blocks they're just great defensively at the. 229 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 2: Rim and then you got pal and Then, Magash mumusphelly coming. 230 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 2: Back it's this team is dangerous as. Well so that's 231 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 2: my futures as far as a team That i'm looking 232 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 2: to potentially, add it's tough now just because there is 233 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 2: so much powery that it's LIKE i don't want to 234 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 2: invest in anyone at the top right because it's just 235 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 2: so wide. Open so someone THAT i would potentially look, 236 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 2: at and by the, way see you, know you can 237 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 2: still find. 238 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 1: Them at thirty five forty to. ONE i think thirty 239 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 1: to one or. 240 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 2: Better that's WHY i would take a shot with, now you, 241 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 2: know BUT i look at maybe someone like A wisconsin 242 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 2: and the only REASON i said they're eighty to one, 243 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 2: NOW i said a couple of weeks, ago this is 244 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 2: a team that's going to be on the. Upswing Michael 245 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 2: potter coming, in he's had a couple of big. Games 246 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 2: he's going to Help reavers down, Low so they have 247 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 2: the big men down. 248 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: Low. 249 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 2: Wisconsin their perimeter play is, very. 250 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 1: Very, streaky you. 251 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 2: Know so you have, guys you, know Like Dimetric, trice 252 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 2: a guy that when he's feeling good and he's making, 253 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 2: shots he'll do it for four or five games strong. 254 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 1: There and the perimeter is kind of like. 255 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 2: That so you Have potter And reavers inside and this 256 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 2: backcourt that is streaky if they can and they're gonna 257 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 2: defend really, Well they're gonna play really. Slow they're bottom 258 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 2: three in, tempo so that the games are going to 259 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 2: be grinders and they be. Close but if their backcourt 260 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 2: just gets hot for a few, games that's a team 261 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 2: that could potentially make a. Run that's all. Go and 262 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,680 Speaker 2: that's kind of my futures outlook as of. Now there'll 263 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:17,839 Speaker 2: be one or two that we may add and talk 264 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 2: about throughout the.

Title 271 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 4: it's certainly, ken especially when everyone is equal and there's 272 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 4: no team with dominant stars coming into the. 273 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 5: Tournament that was One i've been impressed.

That war can 379 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 4: be the best player on the floor at any. Time 380 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 4: they certainly play, hall are. Hard mac is a good, 381 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 4: coach And i'm interested to see how this game is 382 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 4: going to go because, HONESTLY i was On kentucky when 383 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 4: they Played, kentucky But louisville showed me. 384 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 1: More, yeah it was that. GAME i was on the 385 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 1: gooval was inexplicably bad from the line as. 386 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,000 Speaker 4: Well, yep and we got, lucky but they showed some. 387 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 4: Guts they're playing hard on the, road SO i. Agree 388 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 4: but in a down year like this, year they can 389 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 4: absolutely get to the final four with those. 390 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: GUARDS i. 391 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 4: Agree it's a week just the question is can somebody 392 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 4: they play capitalize on? 393 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: It, YEAH i Think duke is going to be the 394 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 1: team that capitalizes this. 395 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 3: WEEKEND i think they're going to cover this BECAUSE i, 396 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 3: mean you lose To clemson the other, night and this 397 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 3: is JUST i, mean if you look into the advanced 398 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 3: stats in this, GAME i, Mean duke should rebound and, 399 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 3: cover AND i mean literally. Rebound their offensive rebounding percentage 400 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 3: is six in the nation To louisville's you, know ninety ninth. 401 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 3: Defensively Uh and there's just everything from bench, minutes you, 402 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 3: know and and average. Height everything is going to be 403 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 3: on The Blue devil side While louisville really just has 404 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 3: a massive experience edge. Here and The cardinals defense is 405 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 3: outside the top three hundred and turnover, percentage which is 406 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 3: an area Where clemson was like inside the top. Seventy 407 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 3: AND i don't think that The louisville is going to 408 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 3: be able to Expose duke and transition or be able 409 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 3: to get these steals or cause any havoc the Way clemson. 410 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 3: Was SO i think this is going to be A 411 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 3: duke cover coming up this. Weekend the line should be 412 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:15,880 Speaker 3: around about six seven. 413 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 2: Eight and for those who don't, know just like, football 414 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 2: six and seven are key numbers in basketball to keep in, 415 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 2: mind mainly just because sometimes it does not the case 416 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 2: of college more so in THE nba but they're still 417 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,959 Speaker 2: important college because that's you, know three possessions at seven in, 418 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 2: particular that's when you would theoretically. 419 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 1: Stop fouling with four seconds. 420 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 2: Left BUT i MEAN i lost a bet this year 421 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 2: When monmouth felt down seventeen so with nine seconds. 422 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 1: Left so you never know in. College but so the. 423 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 2: Line should be right around a touchdown for those still 424 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,360 Speaker 2: in football. Mode it's a huge game in THE. Acc 425 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:49,200 Speaker 2: The duke defense got shredded Against. Clemson there was some foul. 426 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 2: Trouble they look lazy on some backdoor. Cuts SO i 427 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 2: think they're gonna be able to pressure The Louisville they're 428 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 2: gonna be able to pressure The louisville. Guards they're going 429 00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 2: to disrupt that. Offense they have the size and side 430 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 2: to battle With noor in company and then the other, 431 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 2: side AND i think it's just a refocused game from 432 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 2: The duke defense and the other side of the. 433 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: BALL i, mean The louisville defense is excellent as. Well 434 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 1: so maybe the. 435 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 2: Total comes out at one forty, ish maybe a little. 436 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 2: Lower if it's, SEVEN i think the line is about. 437 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 2: Right but if it's you, know one forty, ISH. 438 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 1: I would look at the. 439 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 2: UNDER i think this sets up to, be you, know 440 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 2: a game that's played in the low. 441 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 3: Sixties, yeah AND i think you you AND i talked 442 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 3: about our you, know razorback basketball about how some things 443 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 3: are doing is just. Unsustainable one of the things That 444 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,920 Speaker 3: louisville does it's unsustainable is they're shooting forty four percent 445 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 3: from three and just conference play, ALONE i. 446 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: Mean you just. 447 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 3: Can't that's not going to last the entire. Season so 448 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 3: definitely something that agrees with probably the under and then. 449 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 2: Shoot so these are two teams that are they're not 450 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,400 Speaker 2: going to keep shooting right that well from. 451 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 1: Deep Although duke should Get Joey baker. 452 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 4: Back, YEAH i think that's going to be key because 453 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,439 Speaker 4: what happened Without more And baker the other night is 454 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:56,439 Speaker 4: they became A jenga. 455 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,120 Speaker 5: Puzzle meaning if one thing went wrong for. 456 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 4: Them in that game and it was cash Is stanley 457 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 4: getting in foul, Trouble they're really.

Depth SO i was shocked Because 459 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,639 Speaker 4: clemson has looked dead to. Me they Played, yale they 460 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 4: were awful at. Home Let miami come back in on. 461 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 5: Them but that's the. 462 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 4: Thing if they have those guys, back it just helps 463 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 4: because Then stanley doesn't get that fourth. Foul but if 464 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 4: they're out and something goes Wrong Ernie carrie gets in foul, 465 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 4: Trouble louisville could be in good shape.

Here how many 718 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:50,959 Speaker 2: teams do you think you get eight ten gets in the? Tournament, 719 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 2: ULTIMATELY i think. 720 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 6: We probably get at least, two with the chance for a. 721 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 6: THIRD i know people we're pretty down on the eight 722 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 6: ten right, now BUT i also think that somebody's going 723 00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 6: to steal a win Against, dayton which is going to look. 724 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 6: Great the eight ten was good enough at a conference 725 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 6: that wins against Like Richmond Rhode. ISLAND i think Even 726 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 6: bonaventure Or Saint LOUIS, vcu those are going to turn 727 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 6: into good wins LIKE q two wins if they're on the, 728 00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 6: road that can turn into resume. Builders SO i know 729 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 6: the eight ens a little bit doom and gloom because 730 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 6: THE vcu might be playing their way off the. Bubble 731 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 6: but at the end of the, DAY i don't really 732 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 6: see a scenario where we get less than two, BIDS i. 733 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 2: Would tend to, agree and we'll get to the top 734 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 2: and we'll get To. Dayton but you just MENTIONED. Vcu 735 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 2: they're the only team that's sitting at five hundred and 736 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 2: two and two little disappointing based on you, know some 737 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 2: of the preseason expectations and what we saw specifically early 738 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 2: on in the season for how this team might, look 739 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 2: and you, know some of the underlying metrics suggested maybe 740 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 2: their defense wasn't as good as it. 741 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 1: Was last year, early but they've really fallen off here of. 742 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 2: LATE i don't, Know i'm not sure what's going on With, 743 00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 2: Evans but what are your general thoughts ON vcu and 744 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 2: specifically a huge game Against Saint Bonaventures. 745 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 1: St bonaventure excuse, me On Jan richmond On. 746 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 2: Saturday and that's A bonnie team that sitting a, four 747 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 2: owned the conference and playing a lot, better you, know 748 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 2: kind of on the opposite into the spectrum OF, vcu 749 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 2: especially since o soon came back six to. 750 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 1: Ten guy averages about ten and. 751 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 2: Ten so what are your thoughts ON vc specifically and 752 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 2: then that game On, saturday and If bonnie's is an actual, Player. 753 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 6: Yeah, YEAH i think it's gonna be a. Game there 754 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 6: are a couple of factors that go into. IT vcu 755 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 6: absolutely Rolled bonaventure last. Year they wanted to like thirty, 756 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:22,080 Speaker 6: points SO i don't know how much he can take 757 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 6: away from that game because a lot of a lot 758 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 6: of their returning personnel's pretty. Similar But Marcus Santos, silva 759 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 6: WHO i think with you you Mentioned evan sort of 760 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 6: taking a step. Back he's not quite the same player 761 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 6: he was last. YEAR i think it's pretty clear now 762 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 6: That Marcus Santos silva is VCU's most important. PLAYER i 763 00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,720 Speaker 6: think night, in night, out you know he's he's the 764 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 6: one that's most. Reliable he's only about six, seven so 765 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:45,200 Speaker 6: he's built like one of those overgrown. Linebackers he's really 766 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 6: really effective when he gets the right. Matchup but guys 767 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 6: who have length and use it to defend like O 768 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 6: soon have really given him. Trouble so it's at, home 769 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 6: it's at The Seagull, center so you, know you never 770 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 6: know how that's going to. Go bonnie's are a little 771 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 6: bit of a younger, team might feel kind of, overwhelmed 772 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 6: BUT i THINK i think that If osun can stay 773 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 6: out of foul. Trouble he's got a fouling, issue so you, 774 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 6: know this all might go to hell if he gets 775 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 6: two fouls in the first five. Minutes but If osun 776 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 6: stays out of foul, trouble and if he gets like 777 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 6: twenty five plus, MINUTES i think THE vcu is going 778 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 6: to have some trouble because there's just something missing from 779 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 6: them on the offensive side of the. Ball AND i 780 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 6: think that their, guards if you look at Their Ken 781 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 6: fom numbers year over, year have just all taken a step. 782 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 6: Back it's not Just, evans it's Also Isaac van And Deriontae. 783 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 6: Jenkins they just don't quite score as well as they 784 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 6: as well as they were last. Year AND i Think 785 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 6: osuin has a good chance of taking away that post 786 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 6: Game Santos silva in the, middle and then if he does, 787 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 6: that if he gets enough, minutes THEN i think that 788 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 6: we're we're going to see a. 789 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 1: Dogfight, yeah, YEAH i would tend to. 790 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 2: Agree and IF vc you you, know some of their 791 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 2: defensive numbers are still really. Good they force a ton of. Turnovers, 792 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 2: still probably what it will come down to outside of 793 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 2: the play, inside. 794 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:54,040 Speaker 1: You Think bonnie's is a potential real player that in the. 795 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 6: Conference bonnie's are on the, upswing AND i think if 796 00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 6: we talk about teams that might be a little bit 797 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 6: UNDERVALUED o soon as soon he such an important player For. 798 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,200 Speaker 6: Bonaventure they are such a good defensive team when he's 799 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 6: in the, game because he's six,' ten he's a really. 800 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 6: Great defender he's only, a sophomore but he just has 801 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 6: such a natural feel for. The game he just changes 802 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 6: everything for them because their guards can sort of press 803 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 6: on the perimeter because they've got that, shot blocker that eraser. 804 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 6: Back there and Then the bonnie's defense just. Absolutely terrible 805 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 6: and he's, not playing so he missed five games. FOR 806 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 6: them i think they went one, in four including a 807 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 6: loss To like canisius or. Somebody terrible they're just such 808 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 6: a tremendously different team with those soon in, the LINEUP 809 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 6: and I don't i don't necessarily know If The ken 810 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 6: bomb numbers and other things that you're going to look 811 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 6: at are going to. 812 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: Reflect. 813 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 2: THAT yeah, i mean the interesting thing TOO about vcu 814 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:38,239 Speaker 2: is they've been disappointing, to me and yet they are 815 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 2: still shooting relatively okay, FROM three i mean, Not great 816 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 2: they're around thirty.

In mass McCall plays 891 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 6: this pressing style and he's been tweaking with it, a 892 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 6: LOT so i don't, want to, YOU know i don't 893 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 6: want to kill him, for it but they play this 894 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 6: press where it feels like they're press just.

RHODE island I 994 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 6: Think rhode island is the next really, big GAME and 995 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 6: i think they've been hearing the you know the, whole, like, 996 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 6: oh well they haven't played anybody all, season, long too but, 997 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:20,919 Speaker 6: you know They Beat, saint louis They.

Home games they Go To rhode island 999 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 6: a week, from NOW so i think that'll be their 1000 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,799 Speaker 6: first road game against a, real team and that's going 1001 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 6: to be the first team that sort of like lets 1002 00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:32,839 Speaker 6: you know really who they are in terms of how 1003 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 6: well they're going to compete against the top of. The conference, 1004 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 6: but yeah in terms, of talent like if you watch this, 1005 00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 6: dukne team like they're. RIGHT there I Think michael hughes 1006 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 6: is consistently one of the most underrated players IN. 1007 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 1: The aten he's a really good. 1008 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:45,760 Speaker 6: Big man they got great point guard Play With sincere 1009 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:48,239 Speaker 6: carry and then tav And dun martin is like all of, 1010 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 6: five eight but he's an absolute heat check shooter and 1011 00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,520 Speaker 6: when he, gets going he's really fun. To Watch ken 1012 00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 6: Palm has duquine to finish the conference season twelve, and 1013 00:39:57,120 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 6: six which is it would mean they would go seven 1014 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:01,359 Speaker 6: and six the rest, The way but if you look at, 1015 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:04,440 Speaker 6: their schedule it's kind. Of brutal they actually go away 1016 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:06,879 Speaker 6: To A, rhode island then They get dayton, at home 1017 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 6: then they Go To. Saint louis then they've got two 1018 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,279 Speaker 6: Games against bonaventure home. And away they've got a road Game, 1019 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:15,320 Speaker 6: against davidson they go AWAY. To vcu so their schedule 1020 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 6: is about to get just probably one hundred. Times stuffer 1021 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:19,879 Speaker 6: then it's actually been all. Season LONG so i think 1022 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 6: we're gonna we're going to learn a lot about them coming. 1023 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,440 Speaker 2: Up soon, YOU know i do have to, mention obviously 1024 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,799 Speaker 2: whoeveryone wants to talk About, is dayton and they are 1025 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:29,360 Speaker 2: four and another're fifteen to. 1026 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,400 Speaker 1: Two overall one of the losses Came to kansas. 1027 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 2: AND overtime i know they shot the lights out, from 1028 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,480 Speaker 2: three but it's again that easily could have won led. 1029 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:37,759 Speaker 1: Down the Stretch And. Saint Louis So saint louis is 1030 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 1: three one. 1031 00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 2: In conference this is A team i was so high 1032 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:42,400 Speaker 2: on coming into the Year with Goodwin in french AND 1033 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:44,600 Speaker 2: then i look AT their i watched their OFFENSE and i, 1034 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,320 Speaker 2: just cringe AND then i watched their SHOOTING and i Cringe. 1035 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:50,919 Speaker 2: More so the interesting thing Is that Dayton Plays, saint 1036 00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:54,360 Speaker 2: louis and, you know we Said the Kempom has davidson 1037 00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:56,800 Speaker 2: over RATE which i, agree WITH and i Think That 1038 00:40:57,040 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 2: saint louis for most of the year has. Been UNDERVALUE 1039 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 2: but i mean then IT'S as i watched their Offense and, 1040 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 2: I'M like i think they're now dead last fifty six 1041 00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:05,880 Speaker 2: point two percent from the, line too and that's a 1042 00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:07,880 Speaker 2: lot of That is branch is going to get the 1043 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 2: fattle out down low and he's just chucking it at 1044 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:11,360 Speaker 2: the rim as hard as. 1045 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,880 Speaker 1: He can but let two questions here before we let. 1046 00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:17,439 Speaker 2: You GO how, I mean I think dayton's bona fide 1047 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:19,879 Speaker 2: top ten team and this year it's so wide open 1048 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 2: that if you're in the top fifteen, to twenty you 1049 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,040 Speaker 2: got a shot to go To the. Final FOUR so 1050 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:25,759 Speaker 2: i think their ceiling is a real final. FOUR team 1051 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:28,480 Speaker 2: i think everything's just going to come down to matchups 1052 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:30,160 Speaker 2: this year the twenty there's no elite team that can 1053 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 2: just roll the ball out there. And roll but What 1054 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 2: Does saint louis have to do to beat? Them tomorrow 1055 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:36,480 Speaker 2: can you see? It happening or is just the offense 1056 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:38,800 Speaker 2: not there to beat a team of Caliber of ducaine 1057 00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 2: because the defense is There For saint louis when they went. 1058 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,399 Speaker 6: It, once, Yeah yeah so there's a familiarity, factor, HERE 1059 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 6: right i think these teams are going to be ready 1060 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 6: for each other if he went too and one against 1061 00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:51,160 Speaker 6: each other. Last year so This year's, dayton team we've 1062 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 6: gone back and forth a couple of Times About, Jimmer 1063 00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 6: Jimson Jimmer. Gibson jimmerson i'm SORRY that i was not 1064 00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:59,359 Speaker 6: a BIT and i was legit just at a brain 1065 00:41:59,400 --> 00:41:59,759 Speaker 6: fart as the. 1066 00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 1: Name, was yeah he was a. 1067 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:05,080 Speaker 6: Knockdown shooter slu's offense desperately needs, that spacing and they 1068 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:07,279 Speaker 6: just don't have. It anymore it's tough to See How 1069 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:08,680 Speaker 6: saint lowis is just going to be able to, score 1070 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:11,240 Speaker 6: points score enough points to keep. Up here they score 1071 00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 6: two at. A time they're just such a crappy. Shooting 1072 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 6: team they don't they don't hit threes. Very well you 1073 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:17,880 Speaker 6: mentioned they don't hit free throws very well. At all 1074 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,319 Speaker 6: that's not really a formula for keeping the game close 1075 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,319 Speaker 6: against the Team, like DAYTON where i don't know if 1076 00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:24,960 Speaker 6: you WATCHED the, vcu GAME but i THINK the vcu 1077 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,720 Speaker 6: game should have been TERRIFYING because i THINK the vcu 1078 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,719 Speaker 6: still we can talk about their you, know how we 1079 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:32,480 Speaker 6: might think that they're not quite. 1080 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:34,040 Speaker 1: As good as we thought, they were but it's still a. 1081 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 6: Good team And once dayton Got the bowlder rolling downhill 1082 00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 6: against them early in the, second half and there was 1083 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 6: just nothing anybody. Could DO and i actually think one 1084 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:44,880 Speaker 6: thing that's interesting IS that Vcu And saint louis are 1085 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:47,279 Speaker 6: a little bit more similar in style this YEAR than 1086 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 6: i think anybody would, have EXPECTED and i think maybe 1087 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 6: more than people. Are acknowledging so a lot of things 1088 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 6: went RIGHT for vcu in the first half in order 1089 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:55,719 Speaker 6: to keep that. GAME close i think the game was 1090 00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,239 Speaker 6: being officiated in a way that, benefited them. YOU know 1091 00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 6: I Think marcus evans sort of took down one of 1092 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:03,440 Speaker 6: their guards and it turned into. DOUBLE technicals a lot 1093 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:05,400 Speaker 6: of things went RIGHT for vcu in, that game and 1094 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:07,879 Speaker 6: they still could only keep it close for about. Twenty 1095 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,799 Speaker 6: minutes so it's tough for me to See How saint 1096 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:12,480 Speaker 6: louis is going to. WIN this i Think they're if 1097 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 6: they're going to, win it they're going to need a 1098 00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:16,880 Speaker 6: big showing from the. SUPPORTING cast I think french And 1099 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 6: good win are going to get there as. Pretty usual 1100 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:20,759 Speaker 6: they're going to need a Guy like perkins or a 1101 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:22,520 Speaker 6: Guy Like tay weaver to come in off the bench 1102 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:25,920 Speaker 6: and hit some threes. FOR him i think they're going 1103 00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,840 Speaker 6: to need to be able To. Disrupt Dayton saint louis's 1104 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:32,239 Speaker 6: defense has been good but not great, this YEAR so 1105 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:35,600 Speaker 6: i think they're top. Fifty defense they're actually fifty second 1106 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,440 Speaker 6: in adjusted Efficiency And, KEN pom i don't see, it 1107 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,759 Speaker 6: happening not With The saint.

Point victory but 1204 00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:31,800 Speaker 3: it's just hard for me To picture kentucky. 1205 00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 1: Being an underdog on. 1206 00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:34,319 Speaker 3: THE road i don't care if it is Against an 1207 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:36,799 Speaker 3: arkansas team that is supporting what looks like a very. 1208 00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:39,000 Speaker 3: Good record, You know kentucky's going to be trying to 1209 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:40,840 Speaker 3: have a bounce back After This south, carolina game a 1210 00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:43,400 Speaker 3: game in which they led. By fourteen they got into series, 1211 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:45,640 Speaker 3: foul trouble especially with some of, their stars and once, 1212 00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:48,200 Speaker 3: that happened they. Typed Up south carolina was able to 1213 00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:51,120 Speaker 3: get back in the game just shoot an unbelievable percentage 1214 00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:53,320 Speaker 3: in the, second half, You know and that just seems 1215 00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:55,040 Speaker 3: to happen on, the road especially when you're your best 1216 00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:57,560 Speaker 3: players get into. Foul trouble but the problem Is is 1217 00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:01,359 Speaker 3: arkansas right now is so long and play such good 1218 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 3: defense on the perimeter that it's hard to get a. 1219 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 3: Shot off the only way to really beat them and, 1220 00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:08,120 Speaker 3: handle them which we haven't seen much, of yet is 1221 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 3: to beat them down on. The blocks there are teams 1222 00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:13,080 Speaker 3: that have Out rebounded arkansas by thirty and still lost To, 1223 00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:16,280 Speaker 3: the hogs and it's just been key jack up. The Shots, 1224 00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 3: Mason Jones Isaiah joe and the REASON why I like 1225 00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 3: arkansas this weekend is those two didn't even have any 1226 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,400 Speaker 3: points at Halftime. Against Vanderbilt isaiah joe didn't even hit his, 1227 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:26,400 Speaker 3: FIRST three i think until ten minutes left in, the 1228 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:28,719 Speaker 3: game so they kind of know Showed. Against vanderbilt and 1229 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,520 Speaker 3: if they have, Normal Games mason jones will take a shot. 1230 00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:34,040 Speaker 3: From anywhere there's, you know the old adage Of the 1231 00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:36,160 Speaker 3: hogs from the nineties shooting from the snout of the 1232 00:48:36,239 --> 00:48:38,160 Speaker 3: hog on.

Good, space yeah 1352 00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:23,840 Speaker 4: but Ever since georgetown lost, those Players when mac McClung 1353 00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:26,480 Speaker 4: has been on, the court they usually play well and they. 1354 00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:29,200 Speaker 5: Usually score he went out for two games they got Blitzed. 1355 00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:31,600 Speaker 4: By PROVIDENCE so i think that's a real interesting game 1356 00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:33,839 Speaker 4: because the question Is is georgetown now going to give 1357 00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:36,160 Speaker 4: us some negative regression And is mark going to step 1358 00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 4: forward or is it still going to Be The marcus. 1359 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:39,359 Speaker 4: Howard show he has to score forty six or they 1360 00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:39,759 Speaker 4: can't win a. 1361 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:42,080 Speaker 2: Big, GAME yeah i Mean the georgetown perimeter day is, 1362 00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:44,520 Speaker 2: not great which was a scary Thing against Marquette. 1363 00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:46,919 Speaker 3: And, howard no, you're right they're not good Because Even 1364 00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:49,480 Speaker 3: sadik bay he shot eight for ten and Three, against 1365 00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:50,960 Speaker 3: georgetown and that was going to lead me into a 1366 00:53:50,960 --> 00:53:52,520 Speaker 3: PLAY that i was going to have this weekend was 1367 00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:54,800 Speaker 3: going to heavily Look at yukon going Up. Against, villanova 1368 00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:56,840 Speaker 3: now this is a non. Conference game it's kind of 1369 00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:59,319 Speaker 3: a sandwich for. Both teams even though you kind will 1370 00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:02,200 Speaker 3: be rejoined the conference. Next year you have to wonder 1371 00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:04,359 Speaker 3: like where the mindset Is. Of nova they've won nine 1372 00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:06,359 Speaker 3: of ten and they have this out of conference head 1373 00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:08,520 Speaker 3: to Head, with yukon but they're about to play one 1374 00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:10,200 Speaker 3: of the biggest games of the season coming Up. Against 1375 00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:12,400 Speaker 3: BUTLER and i think the key statns game Is the 1376 00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:14,400 Speaker 3: yukon's rank of third in the country and Blocks and 1377 00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:17,360 Speaker 3: nova's three hundred and fourteenth offensively in. That Category and 1378 00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:19,239 Speaker 3: yukon's been off for. Six days they didn't have a, 1379 00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:21,360 Speaker 3: midweek game so they haven't Played. Sin sunday they should 1380 00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:23,320 Speaker 3: be fresh. For this i'm looking for double Digits on 1381 00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:24,480 Speaker 3: yukon this weekend on the road. 1382 00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 2: Fair enough, you know the ONE thing i worry About with, 1383 00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:29,600 Speaker 2: georgetown is, you know because they've lost a number, of 1384 00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 2: players and, you know their bench has just been dwindling as. 1385 00:54:33,239 --> 00:54:36,640 Speaker 1: A result is there some fatigue that we see as the. 1386 00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:39,480 Speaker 2: Year Progresses so I'm sure marquette will be up for, 1387 00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:41,960 Speaker 2: that game, but yeah someone else going to step Up. 1388 00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:45,239 Speaker 2: Besides howard is the question two Spots that i'll mention. 1389 00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:47,800 Speaker 2: JUST two i think two of the best situational spots 1390 00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:50,800 Speaker 2: will stick IN. The sec you have to look Obviously 1391 00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:53,400 Speaker 2: AT texas A and m at Home Against. SOUTH carolina, 1392 00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:55,040 Speaker 2: I MEAN texta A and, m stinks but this is 1393 00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:57,279 Speaker 2: a team that's been playing better. Of late THAT took 1394 00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:01,120 Speaker 2: lsu to overtime after two. Straight wins shooting historically bad, 1395 00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:03,600 Speaker 2: from three they were at like twenty, three percent and 1396 00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 2: THERE'S been i think one team in the last twenty 1397 00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:07,960 Speaker 2: years that has finished the season under twenty five percent 1398 00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 2: and two that under. 1399 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:11,120 Speaker 1: Twenty seven so that's how low. 1400 00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:13,360 Speaker 2: They were now they're up to like twenty, five percent 1401 00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:16,960 Speaker 2: WHICH is i think third worst in. The country so 1402 00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:20,040 Speaker 2: you're seeing those the last, three games they've been shooting 1403 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:22,359 Speaker 2: a little better and the results have been a. Little better, 1404 00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:25,440 Speaker 2: You Know south carolina off that Win, against kentucky so 1405 00:55:25,560 --> 00:55:27,920 Speaker 2: maybe you have a little let down here Going TO 1406 00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:30,719 Speaker 2: texas A. And m for a one o'clock start noon. 1407 00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:33,400 Speaker 2: Local tip maybe you get, you know a point or 1408 00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:36,360 Speaker 2: two of value because of.
