1 00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 1: Hey, what a welcome, And I'm dog gotdie. This is 2 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:12,200 Speaker 1: all ball, and it's an all ball all the time 3 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:12,559 Speaker 1: of year. 4 00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:12,800 Speaker 2: Right. 5 00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:18,880 Speaker 1: We're getting ready for the NCAA tournament for champion Week, 6 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:20,800 Speaker 1: and we're gonna try and pump these out as often 7 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: as possible. So we got this thing out Saturday morning, 8 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: beginning a championship week. Do Carolina tonight, I'll be on 9 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 1: the call for Westwood one. So what I'm gonna try 10 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 1: and do is give some sort of pod probably tomorrow. 11 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:39,960 Speaker 1: The breakdown of the two teams. Obviously got Kentucky, Tennessee 12 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:43,160 Speaker 1: got all this other you know, rivalry games, I guess 13 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,159 Speaker 1: that are taking place nationally. You have Kansas taken on Houston. 14 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:48,520 Speaker 1: I know it's on a rivalry, but its two best 15 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 1: teams in the Big Big twelve. Iowa State fans, relax, 16 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: I know you exist, not pretending like you don't exist. 17 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: But Kansas has been the better program, even thyre not 18 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: the better team this year. Whatever, anyway I wanted, there's 19 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 1: a couple of things I want to want to get 20 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: in on here. 21 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:05,399 Speaker 2: First. 22 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: Let's start with is it Masacon? Is that? What it is? 23 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:15,680 Speaker 1: Whatever it is? The Camden High School's coached by Malik 24 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 1: Wings and Malik obviously was a superstar high school player, 25 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,119 Speaker 1: was a really good player at Nova during the really 26 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 1: I think during the kind of dark years there for 27 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:33,040 Speaker 1: Jay Wright and I understand that we're all the super 28 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 1: competitive buds. You can't be as good a player as 29 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: Malik was if you aren't just a super competitive and 30 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: I understand that all of us are like, hey, man, 31 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 1: shit happens. It might look bad, it might feel weird, 32 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: but the reality is it's not always. Nothing is fair. 33 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: Bear's never had anything to do with it, but I 34 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: can't believe that. Plus, there's a little bit of positive 35 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: there's a lot of positive equity that could have been 36 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 1: gained from Malik had he just said, hey, we're not 37 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: going to go play that championship game because we didn't 38 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: win the previous game. For that simple we didn't win 39 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: the game. And I know that there's fifty to fifty 40 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: calls sometimes even sixty forty or seventy thirty calls that 41 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 1: don't go your way in sports, and we could go 42 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 1: back and say, well, if this call changed, the whole 43 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: game change, you're right, But here's a definitive if that 44 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: ball goes in and counts which it did. The other 45 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: team wins the game, period stop. So I don't know 46 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: how you reconcile that, like our team is still playing when, 47 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 1: especially the high school level, do you want to win 48 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 1: a state championship? Hell yeah, but you didn't actually win 49 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: the game. So I don't know except that one other 50 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: high school thing. And this is again it'll sound near 51 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: and dear in my heart, but so as some of 52 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: you know, we had him on last year, we have 53 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: pop on him this year. Brian mount Naughty is one 54 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: of my best friends. He's the head coach at O 55 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: Wassow High School. His son Jalen is the star sophomore 56 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: at A Wassow and they're playing tonight. This is Saturday night, 57 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,119 Speaker 1: first state championship against two time defending six A state 58 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,679 Speaker 1: champion Edmund North. It's a good program, by the way, 59 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: really really good program. And they played the semi finals 60 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: on it was yesterday. It was Friday at nine am, 61 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: nine am. And when I put it out there on 62 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: social media, we're like, oh yeah, we got ten am games. 63 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: Whatever are you fucking serious? Who were these fucking clowns 64 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: making these schedules for high school kids? I understand if 65 00:03:56,720 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: there's no greater your doing, your performing the job that 66 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: you are ill equipped for, and you need to either 67 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: hire outside people or just do a better job of 68 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: finding somebody inside your beltway that knows what they're doing. 69 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 1: Because there is no world in which that's a good decision. 70 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,720 Speaker 1: Here's the defense of those types of decisions. Well, we 71 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: have the arena. It's expensive, so we got to get 72 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 1: all the games in one day, and you know, we 73 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: want to make sure the girls and the small schools 74 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: get their due, get their time, so they likely play 75 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: it at night those games. And here's my advice on that. Okay, 76 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: I'm not going to again. If we're about everybody getting 77 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,679 Speaker 1: a fair shot and playing at the right time, fine, 78 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: that means for example, Oklahoma, I forget what they're on 79 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,239 Speaker 1: care they have an on campus arena. It's really cool. 80 00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: I just wish joke is togleon. You know, they're trying 81 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 1: to get this new entertainment center built in downtown Norman, 82 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: nine thousand seat arena. You know, get them on par 83 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,119 Speaker 1: with everybody in the SEC with one of these small, 84 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 1: brand new arenas like Auburn, like Old miss whatever, but 85 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: and a little bit bigger than the size of Baylor. 86 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 1: That's all great, but they have a little on campus 87 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 1: on campus arena. Heay, perfect for girls, per for small schools, 88 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 1: literally perfect, perfect lay there, you can play at two 89 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: sites at once. You can extend it and pay some money, 90 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: but you're not going to make any money if your 91 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: big schools are playing at nine am, three hours, two 92 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: hours from their campus. It's just dumb, right, just dumb. 93 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: It's a lot like when you're coaching, you just if 94 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 1: you can eliminate dumb shit, you have a better chance 95 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 1: to be successful. That's some dumb shit, right, inarguably dumb shit. 96 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: Having six eight teams, a couple of the best teams, 97 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: the biggest schools in the state. But even that, Like 98 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: again I'm okay with we want to protect the small 99 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,719 Speaker 1: schools and the girls basketball and have them play in 100 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: primetime out as well. Fine, you don't need to have 101 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 1: them play in the big arena. Nobody goes to waste 102 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: of money. You know, wasys the facility. But Jesus is 103 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: this stupid? It's not that hard. And then look, one 104 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: more issue there is you got a lot of state titles. 105 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: You know you're gonna have six in Oklahoma like that 106 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 1: a lot, not a ton of people in the state 107 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: last state titles. But if you're gonna have it, that's fine. 108 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: And we're gonna have all these other state titles for 109 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: these smaller programs, so they compete because the bigger schools 110 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: in Oklahoma, you know, the and OASA is pretty big. 111 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 1: It's like three I think three thousand students whatever. But 112 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: you know, you get Jinks in Union and somebody, they're 113 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: like four or five thousand students. And you know, if 114 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: you have five hundred students, like, how we compete with that? 115 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: We can't compete, I understand. So if we're gonna have 116 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: smaller schools, they'll be fine with not playing in the 117 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: big arena, you know. And part of it is there's 118 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: you know, they're going to redo the state fair arena 119 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: as well. There's other issues. I don't give a shit. 120 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: You got to be smarter than a six am game, 121 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: a nine am excuse me, nine am game. Again, it's 122 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: not just about I don't want to get up like 123 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: that's going to be the last basketball game. That probably 124 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: ninety percent of the kids. That's just again, stop doing 125 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: stupid shit. That's stupid shit. We're gonna welcome in Jeff Goodman, 126 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 1: who if you haven't seen it. Goodie and I we 127 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: do a We do a show on Stadium daily called 128 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: Goodman Versus Gottlib. It's pretty cool. We enjoy doing it. 129 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: And we're just gonna He's driving, I'm driving. We're just 130 00:07:55,800 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: going to talk coaching jobs go around the country and 131 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: mostly all high major coaching jobs. I think you'll like 132 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: that discussion, super O gain. Before we get to that, 133 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: I did want to give you my thoughts on Arizona 134 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: and Solomon on Knight in pursed against UCLA. I mean, 135 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: a complete and utter dismemberment in what I like. I 136 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 1: like the Boswell wasn't trying to win the game on 137 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: his own. He picked his spots, and then when they 138 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: made their run late in the first half, it was, 139 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: you know, he hit a big three, he made a 140 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 1: cup big plays. Obviously, love can go get buckets. I mean, 141 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 1: he's gonna he's gonna shoot regardless. But I do think 142 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: that Tommy has done a very good job of managing 143 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: that and that's a weapon that they're going to use 144 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: moving forward. It's a good team. It's a very good team, 145 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: especially when you have key Shot Johnson at the four. 146 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 1: You know, he's so athletic. I'm actually surprised. I would 147 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: love for them to take a look at key shot 148 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 1: at the five getting ready for the NCAA tournament. You know, 149 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 1: they have they have, they have others coming off the 150 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,440 Speaker 1: bench that are really athletic, and I you know, he 151 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: does go to a more athletic lineup off the bench, 152 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: but always has a traditional five. I would I would 153 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,959 Speaker 1: take a look at not having a traditional five. The 154 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: Arizona has a lot more offensive firepower than in some 155 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:24,199 Speaker 1: previous years, and they have also, you know, people were 156 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 1: really down obviously on Kirk Krisa at the end. Some 157 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: of it is, you know, attitude and persona, but I 158 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: think a lot of it is that, you know, he 159 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: can't really break down a defense. He's not a defensive stopper. Well, 160 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: they're they're better there this year. I like them. I 161 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: like them. I can't say that I love them, and 162 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: I'm a little bossis over their bigs having to cover 163 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: out on the floor. And I also think that there 164 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: can be maybe a little bit of a lack of 165 00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: shooting right when you're playing and I and I saw shot, 166 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: he made one, he missed one in terms of three, 167 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: but so many other teams playing with four and five shooters. 168 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 1: You're playing with three and maybe two and a half 169 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: at times, depending upon who you got out there. Those 170 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: are my concerns are Caleb Love's shots selection, their overall 171 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 1: shot selection. They only really have one guy who's a 172 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: point guard, you know, in Boswell, a real backup guy, 173 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: and they don't necessarily have enough guys that create shots. Brothers, 174 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: but they're better and tougher defensively than they've been. You 175 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: have two guys that played in the National Champion Game 176 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 1: in subsequent years in Love and Johnson, and I kind 177 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: of think they're like a Purdue right if you can 178 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 1: get out of that first weekend, that's a really dangerous team, 179 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: really dangerous team. I'm higher on them. I haven't seen 180 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 1: them in person than I was watching them last month 181 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: or so on TV. All right, let's get to our 182 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: conversation with our guy, Jeff Goodman. Jeff, let's list do 183 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 1: this thing.

We can't figure 190 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 3: it out. 191 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 4: They're here again today, So I'm like, I don't know 192 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 4: what I'm doing today.

You're you moving to Charleston. 195 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 2: I don't know what we're doing. 196 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 3: We like, I think so, but we're gonna rent first 197 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 3: and figure it out. 198 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 4: Like we want to be down there and see if 199 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 4: we really like it enough to buy there or honestly, 200 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 4: for the next two years, we could just bounce, just 201 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 4: bounce around, go Charleston to Florida, back to Boston in 202 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 4: the nice weather, never see city weather. 203 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 2: That's my goal. 204 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 1: Okay, California, we have seasons, the good one, that's what 205 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 1: we got. Yeah, uh okay, Well I am driving to Durham. 206 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 1: I decided to fly into Charlotte and do the drive. 207 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,319 Speaker 1: Why uh just the timing of the flights worked out 208 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: better for me. And then I'm doing the Big South 209 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:26,559 Speaker 1: Championship on Sunday on Westwood. That's that's at high Point, 210 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: so So High high Points only an hour from Charlotte. 211 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 3: Ye have been have you been to High Points Campus? 212 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,719 Speaker 1: Ever, I haven't I heard. It's amazing. It's like a 213 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: fourth Seasons excited. 214 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 4: Maybe you get a spots treatment while you're. 215 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 1: There, Maybe maybe I can. Uh. Okay, let's let's do 216 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: the coaching job thing. Okay, purely organic. The beauty to 217 00:12:54,320 --> 00:13:00,439 Speaker 1: this is right like where this is how real conversations 218 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 1: take place, not the conversations that everybody has to have 219 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 1: on Twitter or on TV. Right, Okay, so let's start 220 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 1: with Let's start out west, because yesterday Mike Hopkins got 221 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: fired and we kind of all saw it coming. First, 222 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: you have a new ad. Second, they haven't really done shit. 223 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,079 Speaker 1: You know, you do feel it's weird because they literally 224 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: fired him the day after he beats Wazoo on the 225 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:30,520 Speaker 1: road in the same year they beat Gondaga. Feels like 226 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: most people think it's a formality that it sprinkle. Is 227 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 1: that too strong a way to put it? 228 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 2: Yeah? 229 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 4: Probably too strong? Probably too strong, but makes so much sense. 230 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 4: You know, you always like there's a hot name, right, 231 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 4: there's a hot name every year, and then there's the 232 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 4: guy who's kind of done it for a while that 233 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 4: people have just kind of fallen asleep on a little 234 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 4: bit because he's done it so long. And that's Leon 235 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 4: Rice against Danny Sprinkle. And it's not like there's like 236 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 4: this huge age gown. It's not like Danny Sprinkle's, you know, 237 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 4: thirty two years old. 238 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 2: But he's just. 239 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 4: Burst out of the scene here lately. Right, Montana State 240 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 4: did a great job. Utah State's done an incredible job 241 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 4: this year in his one season. 242 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 2: He's the odds on favorite for me. 243 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 4: But yeah, I think leon Rice has a shot there, 244 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 4: and I think it probably is a two horse race 245 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 4: at the end of the day. 246 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 2: But again we'll see. 247 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 4: With obviously Troy Danon coming from Tulane, who else he 248 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 4: might have in mind. Hopefully it's not to bring Mike 249 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 4: Dunleavy senior back to college coaching. 250 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 5: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 251 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 5: the nation. Catch all of our shows at Foxsports Radio 252 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 5: dot com and within the iHeartRadio app. Search FSR to 253 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 5: listen live. 254 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 1: Do you know that I was, I guess a finalist 255 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: with Mike dunlaedyr. 256 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 2: I do, I do? I remember that you were in 257 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 2: that mix? 258 00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: So I I had a great I know with Troy too. 259 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: He came and saw me and in Westport, Connecticut. That 260 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: was right before I moved to California. What was the 261 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: restaurant got? It's really good? Oh man, I'll think of it. 262 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: I forget what's what it's called. Think of it anyway. Uh. 263 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: You know, Troy started at Northern Iowa, right, and then 264 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: to Tulane and did a great job with football, and frankly, 265 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: you know his second higher basketball is really good. 266 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 267 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, okay, So if Leon doesn't get Washington, yeah, right, 268 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: and MaTx is finally graduated, yeah, Like, is this a 269 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: he gets out or he stays there forever sort of thing? 270 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,160 Speaker 4: You know, It's weird because I think everybody thinks that 271 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 4: it's automatic, and it probably is that Brian Michaelson gets Gonzaga, 272 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 4: But I feel like, why isn't Leon in the equation there? Like, 273 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 4: if you think about it, doesn't it make more sense 274 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 4: when Mark feud does retire if he retires the next 275 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 4: year or two obviously if he goes five more. But 276 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 4: to me, doesn't it make more sense to give it 277 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 4: to a guy who's already been coaching as a head 278 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 4: coach for twelve fifteen years, who's done a really good 279 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 4: job at Boise every single year or No. 280 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: It does, But I also think maybe that ship is sailed. 281 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: I don't, I don't. 282 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 2: You're probably right, You're probably right. I just don't know why. 283 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: Okay, But here's here's here's here's a question that's really 284 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: interesting if you think about Okay, let's say Kyle Smith 285 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 1: at Wazoo gets the Vanderbilt job, which I know the 286 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 1: Vanderbilt job is not open, but percent chance Vanderbilt job 287 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 1: comes open. 288 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 4: Jeff very hot the only you know, the ad the 289 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 4: a D wants to keep him, but it sounds like 290 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 4: she's going to be overruled. And I mean, he's done 291 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 4: an atrocious job there other than one half of one seasons. 292 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:06,400 Speaker 1: Okay, So so let's let's say. 293 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,479 Speaker 4: He left competition though, but he's gonna have competition. I mean, 294 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 4: Kyle Smith, well, he's done a great job, Doug, and 295 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 4: he has really tough spots, right, we know Colombia, San 296 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,720 Speaker 4: fran and Washington State are hard jobs. 297 00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 2: He has not gone to the tournament. 298 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:25,400 Speaker 4: Chris Mack is gonna be in the mix, right, Chris 299 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,880 Speaker 4: Mack is going to be in the mix for that one? 300 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 2: Could Chris Holtman want it? Their resume is a stronger now. 301 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 4: That they've had much better jobs, obviously, but the question 302 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 4: is what do you do if you're Vandy. Are you 303 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 4: taking a guy that, yeah, has done as much with 304 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 4: less as just about anybody. But again, he's he's never 305 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 4: been down there. He's been all over the place. He's 306 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 4: been in the Northeast, he's been in the Pacific Northwest, he's 307 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 4: been in the West. But like, I don't know, it's 308 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 4: a little different now at Bandy than it Like people 309 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:03,160 Speaker 4: people equate Mandy to this like academic job, and it is, 310 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 4: but it's also in the SEC Doug, so it's not 311 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 4: like it's your typical academic job. You've got to be 312 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 4: able to figure shit out and work angles, and I'm 313 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 4: not sure Kyle Smith is going to be able to 314 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 4: do that at Mandy and get them to be Like, 315 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 4: I think he's a solid pick there, but I think 316 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 4: like a Chris Mack would be more of like you 317 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 4: might be able to really hit it with him. 318 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 1: Okay, I mean I was We'll get we'll circle back 319 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 1: to Vandy in a second. But the question, the question was, 320 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: if you're Leon Rice, say Wazoo, Wazoo's gonna play in 321 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 1: the WCC for now, probably ends up in the Mountain West, right. 322 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, didn't he turn that down about ten years ago. 323 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 4: He turned that down about ten years ago. 324 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 1: I know what level of job, like a Washington State like, 325 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: what level of job is that? Moving forward? 326 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 4: Not good job, not a good job. But again the 327 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 4: question is what are they gonna pay now? 328 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 2: Right? 329 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 4: What are they gonna pay? If you're Leon Rice, like 330 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 4: you said, Max is gone, do you hit that one payday? 331 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 2: Now? You're making good money at Boise. 332 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 4: But if you're if you're gonna double your your salary, 333 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 4: do you just say at this point in your career, Hey, 334 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:23,160 Speaker 4: you know what, I'm gonna roll the dice at this point. 335 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 1: But but I guess here's the here's here's the other 336 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 1: side to it. If you're Washington State and and you 337 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 1: know right now those schools Organ State, Washington State financial 338 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: windfall because they're the last two, you know, holding that 339 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,360 Speaker 1: that pack tall banner. So they're making a bunch of money. 340 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: But eventually the bottom is gonna fall out, right, So 341 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: if you're Washington State, like, what do you pay for 342 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 1: a head basketball coach knowing that that TV revenue is 343 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: disappearing in a couple months, You're. 344 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,880 Speaker 4: Not gonna pay No, You're you're probably gonna go young 345 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 4: I mean to me, you're gonna go young mid major cheap, 346 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,640 Speaker 4: like if really, if you're being honest here, And it's 347 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 4: probably why Oregon State doesn't fire Win Tinkle right now. 348 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 4: They don't too much money still, you know from that 349 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 4: that one run, that Elite eight run the bubble, it 350 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,440 Speaker 4: was one of the more baffling contracts ever given by 351 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 4: Scott Barnes. And Scott Barnes has made a couple boneheaded moves, 352 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:14,520 Speaker 4: that being one of them. 353 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: And obviously no no Irank Kevin Stallings at Pittsburgh. 354 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 2: That's number all time. 355 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 4: Yeah, but that no, but given Tinkle give and Tinkle 356 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 4: all that guaranteed money after one Elite Elite eight run, 357 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 4: it's pretty damn close. 358 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: Plus they were five hundred that year. 359 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, like like that's and I like Scott Barnes, 360 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 4: but it's it just shows some of these days. 361 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: Listen, listen, listen. I like Scott as well, for people 362 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: who don't know, he's a poor basketball player, right and 363 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:53,439 Speaker 1: so uh he also didn't he I don't remember if 364 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: he hired and fired Dury at Utah Stank. 365 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 2: I don't think that was him. 366 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:02,360 Speaker 1: I don't know anyway. Yeah, that one's that's the but 367 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: but look, I think the mistake that the a D 368 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: may okay is not necessary, Like you can make a 369 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 1: higher word, you can reward a guy. I don't understand 370 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 1: how they get talked to these crazy extensions because they 371 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 1: fear losing their coach. Like if you had a coach 372 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: who's just okay, and then he goes on a tournament 373 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 1: run and he gets hot and somebody wants to come 374 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,639 Speaker 1: and take him off your hands, like okay, you know, 375 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: and if you're gonna you're gonna give him a bump, like, 376 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,400 Speaker 1: give him a bump. It doesn't have to be over 377 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 1: five or six years. 378 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,360 Speaker 4: Can I give you the best example? Can I give 379 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 4: you the best recent example of that? Yeah, Dennis Gates. 380 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: Which stop right now? 381 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 2: Right after one year. 382 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 4: Dennis Gates. Dennis Gates, they gave him guaranteed money. Desi 383 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,359 Speaker 4: Rae who just left for Arizona, the former Missouri A 384 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 4: D gave him like guaranteed twenty twenty five million. 385 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 2: How many wins do they have in the league this year? 386 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 2: Doug zero zero? 387 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: I mean, how is that possible? 388 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 2: I mean it just shows you sometimes you get. 389 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: It at how did Missouri fall completely apart? 390 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,920 Speaker 4: It's amazing I mean that that's the problem is these 391 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 4: ads don't understand the marketplace and they don't understand like, Okay, Dennis, 392 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 4: we're not giving you that much guaranteed money. Uh, you 393 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 4: did it for one year. That's great. If you want 394 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 4: to go get something else, you know what, go go 395 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 4: if you want to go go see what else you 396 00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:39,360 Speaker 4: can get. 397 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 2: That's better. We gave you a. 398 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: Job right when he didn't didn't have one. Yeah, a 399 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: gigantic job. It's a gigantic job. I guess I don't understand, 400 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:56,199 Speaker 1: like why the contracts are so long. The sport is 401 00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 1: it doesn't. 402 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 4: Matter though, but those still matter. All that matters is 403 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 4: the out or the guaranteed money. So like you can 404 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 4: give somebody calipery. 405 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: That's in the length of the contract. 406 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 2: Like Bill self. Yeah, but like okay Bill. 407 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 4: Bill self's got a lifetime deal done, but it's buyout. 408 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 4: Isn't that high like if. 409 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 2: Bill Bill So it's different. Obviously it's different with Bill self. 410 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 2: I get it. But all I'm saying is these a 411 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 2: ds you can give them. 412 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: Please. You just mentioned we just talked about Dennis Gates 413 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: and Bill Sell and their contracts. 414 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 2: All right, all right, all right, all right, I. 415 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: Like just comparing it's like, man, I mean, please, let's 416 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: not do that. Let's if you're going to construct a contract. 417 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 1: Like again, the the ads at the high level, the 418 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,439 Speaker 1: crazy part about it is eights at the low and 419 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 1: mid major level, a lot of them have a lot 420 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 1: of balls like, hey, we just can't afford it. We'll 421 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,399 Speaker 1: walk away from it, you know. Whereas the adies at 422 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 1: the high level they get they they again, and neither 423 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 1: of us know for each one what it's actually like 424 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 1: a lot of times they get pressure from Booster Solutions 425 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,920 Speaker 1: say look, I'm only giving you money if this guy 426 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: is the head coach. That's the way it works. So 427 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,880 Speaker 1: it's gonna be pasting all right, Ohio State, where are 428 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:22,400 Speaker 1: we de one? 429 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 4: I mean, I still think it's gonna end up falling, 430 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 4: not falling, but I think Dusty May will be the 431 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 4: guy there. 432 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 2: At the end. 433 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 4: But again Lamont Paris, an Ohio native, could be in 434 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,400 Speaker 4: the mix here. We don't know if Dusty May will 435 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 4: definitely take it again. If you kind of look at 436 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 4: the tea leaves, it makes a lot of sense, right. 437 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 2: It fits him. 438 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 4: You know, he's a guy that doesn't love the limelight. 439 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 4: He'd rather every everybody close to him has told me 440 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 4: he would rather Ohio State than Indiana, where he was 441 00:24:53,880 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 4: a manager. Anyway, he hired Andy Miller, the former NBA 442 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 4: agent who's now repping college coaches, some not many. Andy 443 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:10,120 Speaker 4: Miller works with Rich Paul at Clutch. Last I checked, 444 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 4: Lebron was a big Ohio State fan. So I think 445 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 4: Rich Paul is also, you know, the from Ohio. So 446 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 4: I think that's a natural fit for Dusty at the 447 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 4: end of the day, and Dusty going through what he's 448 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 4: going through right now this year, with like barely getting 449 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 4: in the tournament, I think he realizes. Okay, Joe, I 450 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 4: really want to be in the A. I love Boca, 451 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 4: but is it worth it. I'm basically in a one 452 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 4: bid league right now. I'm basically gonna be a one 453 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 4: bid league. 454 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: No, you gotta get the fuck out, correct, correct? 455 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 2: You do? Lamont Paris Sean Miller. You know, I think 456 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 2: he's on the list, but I don't. I don't know 457 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 2: how high up he is. I think they want. 458 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 4: Dusty, and I think Dusty ultimately will end up taking it. 459 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 1: Okay, who gets fort Atlantic? 460 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 4: So Josh Shurtz went to school there from Indiana State. 461 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 2: He went to fa. 462 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 1: Indiana State for Florida Atlantic. 463 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 2: No, no, no, I don't think so. 464 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 4: I don't think it makes sense in any regard because 465 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 4: it's not a great job. We know that you don't 466 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 4: want to follow a dusty man. 467 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 2: Now, I don't know. I don't think one of the 468 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 2: assistants will will get it. 469 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 4: I think Abernathy and Kyle Church have done a great 470 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,919 Speaker 4: job there and they probably should get it. But I 471 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 4: think you know, uh, White will we'll we'll swing for 472 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,400 Speaker 4: the fences there and try to get a big name. 473 00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 4: He's got a million dollars to work with. I could 474 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 4: see him trying to bring in a you know, hopefully 475 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 4: not a recirculated guy. 476 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 2: But then if you go young up and comer, who 477 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 2: are you getting? Like, who are you getting? 478 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 1: Would you go Josh Pastor? 479 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 2: There? 480 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 1: It's Florida Lank has been a place. You know, they 481 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 1: recessed it. They were laying Kippen's career. And I not 482 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 1: that it's the same as Pastor, but Pastor might might 483 00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,360 Speaker 1: make sense there that that type of he he's still 484 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:04,160 Speaker 1: young ish and yet he needs another spot. And as 485 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 1: the same kind of energy is as dusty that one 486 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: could be to be in. 487 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:16,400 Speaker 2: You mentioned I like Josh Rice. If Rice open, I. 488 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:22,639 Speaker 1: Have heard Rice is potentially very close ye ye, And 489 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 1: and uh that that one would make would make some sense, 490 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:32,119 Speaker 1: would would make some sense? Uh what else? What? 491 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 4: What? 492 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 1: What other shoes are gonna drive? We're waiting for Virginia. Okay, 493 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,679 Speaker 1: let's let's go left Virginia. Okay, So they Long, I 494 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:43,439 Speaker 1: mean most people believe that Ren Baker Long had an 495 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 1: infatuation with Dusty. Dusty has told people his dad was 496 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,880 Speaker 1: a coal miner, you know, so there's all these connections. 497 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: They have a lot of money, they have n I 498 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:57,120 Speaker 1: l way better job than people think. Okay, so if 499 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: if not Dusty, then who. 500 00:27:59,880 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 4: I mean the name floating around a lot is Mark 501 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:03,680 Speaker 4: Buyington and James Madison. 502 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,239 Speaker 2: They may not make the tournament. I mean they were 503 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 2: great early. 504 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 4: You know. You look at him, you look at Josh Shurtz, 505 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 4: you look at the other guy in the Sun Belt 506 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 4: who won the Sun Belt, Dustin Kerns at our state, 507 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:21,920 Speaker 4: a Nico medbed. Guys like that, I think they're gonna 508 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:23,920 Speaker 4: end up with a mid major coach. For the most part, 509 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 4: I'd be surprised if they don't. 510 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 1: The next one. 511 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 4: Look at well I mean, you know, obviously I think 512 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 4: Stanford could pop Monday. You know, Bernard Weir has in 513 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 4: the last couple of years come out and given Jared 514 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 4: Hass a vote of confidence this time of year. He 515 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 4: won't do that now. He told me the other day 516 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 4: he'll meet with Jared the end of the year and 517 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 4: evaluate things. I think evaluating means it's it's over. It's over. 518 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 4: You know, Hass has had talent, so then that I 519 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 4: think is the the probably the most I don't know, 520 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 4: app landing spot for Kyle Smith. And I'm not sure 521 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 4: it's like a great move because it's not like Stanford's 522 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 4: got you know, like like they got to worry about transfers. 523 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 2: That's hard to get them in. 524 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 4: Do they really care about basketball that much these days? 525 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 4: I don't think it's a great great but like, if 526 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 4: you're Kyle Smith, you've got to get the hell out 527 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 4: of Pullman, don't you. 528 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 2: You do it? 529 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 1: And a lot of it reminds you actually of Columbia. 530 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 1: You know, where you have on campus housing, you know, 531 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: so you save a bunch of money there and yeah, 532 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: you have all kinds of red tape. I mean, it's 533 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 1: crazy because Stanford used to be the model, right, it 534 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 1: used to be they used to have the best environment 535 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 1: maybe in the in the Pacto. Yeah, it's so good, 536 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 1: and you know it's the model for student athletes, like 537 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 1: that's where you want to go. Come to the farm 538 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 1: and and they've had so many successful people in that 539 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 1: just bat and they were really good basketball. Man. Be 540 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 1: the acc is hard. I don't know how that's gonna work. 541 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: No one, no one, No one goes anyway. That's hard. 542 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 1: That's hard. But that's kind of been Kyle. Especially the 543 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 1: other name there is Russ Turner, right, and yeah he's 544 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: you know, wins the league again in the big last 545 00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: kind of institution at you see your vine, that one 546 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 1: would be a shoe. Why did why did Indiana keep 547 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 1: Mike Woindson? 548 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 4: I mean, you know again because he did go to 549 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 4: the tournament the last two years and it hasn't been 550 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 4: a complete bottom out like Kenny Payne. Uh like even 551 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 4: Juwan Howard. Now Juwan obviously did a lot more early 552 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:48,360 Speaker 4: in his career. And that'll be one to watch, but 553 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 4: I think there's more. He's one of their own, and 554 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 4: you're gonna give one of your own, especially when a 555 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 4: guy like Quinn Buckner has a lot of juice, and 556 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 4: Quinn played it Indiana and is a board, you know, 557 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 4: on the board some juice there. I just think the 558 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 4: old school people are like, Okay, you know what, he 559 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 4: hasn't done that bad. Now They're gonna have almost four 560 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 4: million dollars in Nile this coming year. So if they 561 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 4: don't get it done this year, it's completely on Mike Woodson. 562 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 4: They got to keep some of the players they have 563 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 4: some retention and then go get a point guard. But 564 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 4: you know, the big thing too, was if Dusty May 565 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 4: was dying to come to Bloomington and like he called 566 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 4: and was like, hey, you know what, yeah, I would 567 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 4: take it now, like. 568 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 2: This is it. 569 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 4: I'm gonna take Ohio State. If not, but I really 570 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 4: want the Indiana job. It might have been different, but 571 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 4: that wasn't the case. Again, so I think it was like, 572 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 4: who we getting anyway if we make a move on 573 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 4: Woodson right now? 574 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 1: They lost their all three their includingam McNeil yesterday. Yes, 575 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 1: but but I actually, I mean he's a he's a 576 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: big loss, big loss, big kid. It could really shoot 577 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: the fucking ball, really just knows how to play. But 578 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 1: like the reality is, you have that money in the nil. 579 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 1: You go out and spend it on veteran players, you 580 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 1: have a much greater likelihood of success, right, you have 581 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 1: a much better likely to success. 582 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 2: But the hell out of it. He's smart. He's not 583 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 2: your typical freshman. 584 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 4: I'm not saying he wasn't going to be like the star, 585 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 4: but he would have been a nice piece. 586 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he could have been their furkey. He could 587 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 1: have been there for yeah right, right, but not end 588 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 1: of the world. 589 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 2: That one. 590 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: I think that one hurt more than the other two 591 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 1: guys decomitting. But you know it hurt, but it's not 592 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 1: it all is all changes if you get the right 593 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 1: kids in the portal. 594 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, Louisville, I mean, uh, obviously a move will be 595 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 4: made on him here soon. Although a lot of people 596 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 4: are like, oh, maybe he'll keep his job. I just 597 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 4: don't see any way he keeps his job. And obviously 598 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 4: the the the pipe dream is Scott Drew. I've said 599 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 4: this to you forever. That's who I know. Want. 600 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 1: I know they want why again, why would Scott Drew lee? 601 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:27,440 Speaker 4: He probably won't, but you got to make him say no. 602 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 4: Like he's the one guy that like if you throw 603 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 4: a crazy number at him and you also throw a 604 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 4: crazy nil number at him, which I'm not sure they 605 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 4: can do yet, but I think they can get there 606 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 4: if they want to. Let's face it, it's Louisville. 607 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 2: So I think he ends up saying no. 608 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,800 Speaker 4: And then obviously Greg McDermott stayed at Creighton, so then 609 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 4: you're dealing with some mid major guys. 610 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 2: Again. 611 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 4: What people have to realize here is the best guys 612 00:33:56,320 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 4: that we think should be available have huge biots, huge bats. 613 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: We start we started by talking about this, right and 614 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: that why do they exist? Well, they exist for two reasons. 615 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:15,400 Speaker 1: Coaches want them to protect against these bad years. Dennis Gates. Uh, 616 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 1: you know, like you name it mc cronin. So that's 617 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:30,520 Speaker 1: why coaches want them, and administrators occasionally it's to protect 618 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 1: them from somebody coaching their coach. But really they they 619 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 1: acquiesce to so that so that a coach kind of 620 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:41,319 Speaker 1: protects himself, which I do understand. Okay, so what about 621 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:42,720 Speaker 1: Chris Beard. You're not optional? 622 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 4: No, I I've been told that that the Beards and 623 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 4: the Sean Millers are off the table because of everything 624 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 4: that that Louisville program has gone through with Patino, all 625 00:34:56,239 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 4: the drama, all the embarrassment. So I don't I don't 626 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,160 Speaker 4: think it's gonna be Beard. I don't think it's gonna 627 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,839 Speaker 4: be Sean Miller. I'm not even sure. I think Eric 628 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:11,720 Speaker 4: mussels out of the equation because again, yeah yeah, because 629 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:13,840 Speaker 4: you know, again he's he's tough. 630 00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 2: To deal with. 631 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 4: I think you're looking at a group, the Porter Moosers, 632 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 4: the Nico Medviz, the Jerome Tangs, the Pat Kelsey's, Lamont Parris, 633 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 4: Josh Shirtz, that group. 634 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 2: Jamie Dixon. 635 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,399 Speaker 4: Maybe I don't see him over paying though. I don't 636 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 4: think he's gonna overpay for a guy that's like a 637 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 4: mid tier guy like that. Like, I don't think he's 638 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,839 Speaker 4: gonna pay Jamie Dixon four and a half million. I 639 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 4: think he would rather pay, you know, Niko Medved three million. 640 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:45,239 Speaker 1: Don't like get a guy who can pay him a 641 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 1: million five two million and then put all of it 642 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: in the nil. Yeah, I mean, what are we doing here? 643 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,800 Speaker 1: You know, brain, that's where the that's where the players 644 00:35:54,840 --> 00:36:02,720 Speaker 1: come from. Okay, what about DePaul. 645 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 2: You know, Bobby Hurley. 646 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 4: It makes sense, probably too much sense Porter Moser if 647 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:09,439 Speaker 4: he would I just don't think they're gonna pay him 648 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:13,879 Speaker 4: a five million dollars buyout to Paul. They need money 649 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 4: for Nil, so like that, that one doesn't make a 650 00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 4: lot of sense. They talked to Holtman, I don't think 651 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 4: he take it. You know, Hurley seems to be the 652 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 4: most likely because he needs to get out of Dodge 653 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,279 Speaker 4: with Arizona State, even though they've got a new a 654 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 4: d I think he's probably got a year left, you know, 655 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 4: like the Mark Byington's, the Josh shurtz is, the Darren 656 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:38,600 Speaker 4: Devrees probably in the mix there. But I think Hurley 657 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 4: just makes too much sense other than the fact that, man, 658 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:45,400 Speaker 4: those family dinners are going to be rough between DePaul 659 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:48,440 Speaker 4: and Yukon, you know, the you know you got the 660 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:50,759 Speaker 4: worst job in your league, your brother's got the best job. 661 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 2: I don't. 662 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,799 Speaker 4: I don't love that dynamic. They may not talk to 663 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:55,720 Speaker 4: each other for years. 664 00:36:56,160 --> 00:37:01,120 Speaker 1: Could he have taken Saint John's a year ago, No. 665 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 4: Not a year ago, like three years ago before Mike Anderson. 666 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,240 Speaker 4: You know, he probably could have had a band because 667 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 4: he was hot then, and he could have had to 668 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,799 Speaker 4: Paul the last time he was hotter than you know, 669 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:14,759 Speaker 4: he's cooled off the last three or four years. You 670 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 4: and I know how how good a job he's done overall, if. 671 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:18,960 Speaker 2: You look at it. 672 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,719 Speaker 4: But the problem is, again, Chris Holman did a good 673 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 4: job overall. It doesn't matter. What matters is what mc cronin. 674 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:29,400 Speaker 4: What matters is what have you done for me lately? 675 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 4: Unless you've gotten. 676 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 2: To a final four? 677 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 4: And even mc cronan went to a final four and 678 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:35,399 Speaker 4: they're ready to run him out. 679 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:38,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, explain to me the ucl I think they're like, Okay, 680 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:42,239 Speaker 1: So here's what I know. I mean, I know more 681 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:47,319 Speaker 1: about UCLA basketball than I think anyone would lead you 682 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 1: to believe. You know, I realized it's stuff to get 683 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 1: kids in school, especially transfers. I realized that suppose of 684 00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:58,799 Speaker 1: the nil is limited. I don't think they did a 685 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:04,400 Speaker 1: particularly good job of building their roster knowing they were 686 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:08,840 Speaker 1: going to lose all those guys last year, right, like you, 687 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:12,400 Speaker 1: you should have backfilled your roster with guys and played 688 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 1: some younger players and been further along this year so 689 00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 1: you knew some of this was coming. But there's also 690 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:23,360 Speaker 1: the like Martin Jarmondin is a former he's a basketball player, 691 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:27,400 Speaker 1: but he just lost his football coach who took a 692 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: four million dollar pack cup. Now most of us realized 693 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:31,800 Speaker 1: Chip Kelly was probably going to be fired at the 694 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 1: end of this year anyway, And you know now they're 695 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:39,319 Speaker 1: hired to Sean Foster. We actually, I don't know if 696 00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:41,359 Speaker 1: you know this. He's my former high school teammate. He's 697 00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 1: a freshman out the senior got called up, got called up. Yeah, 698 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 1: I got called up for horse steep basketball for our 699 00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:47,480 Speaker 1: playoff run. 700 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:47,719 Speaker 2: Yeah. 701 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,560 Speaker 1: It's cool. Sean's great dude, and so I'm super happy 702 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:52,280 Speaker 1: to him. I just I don't know if you compete 703 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,439 Speaker 1: there in football if you're not going to spend. They're 704 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,080 Speaker 1: not spending on coaches now, so maybe they're spending on NL. 705 00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:03,319 Speaker 1: I'm not sure. But like we both think, we both 706 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:06,880 Speaker 1: know Mick really well. He's not. None of these guys 707 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 1: in that level war that easy to deal with, right, 708 00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 1: But he's also not He's. 709 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 2: Not no, no, he's not. 710 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 1: He's not one fun, just intent intense. So I guess 711 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:24,800 Speaker 1: what's going on with U. C l A. 712 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 4: But here's the thing. Here's the thing, all right, Doug, 713 00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:32,080 Speaker 4: here's the thing. He inherited Haimi Hakis and Tiger Campbell. 714 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,759 Speaker 4: They were two tough dudes, right, like, like we we 715 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:39,279 Speaker 4: wondered when when Mick got to l A. What was 716 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 4: the one thing we wondered, like, well, at Sincy, what 717 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:46,400 Speaker 4: did he win with top dudes who play it harder 718 00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 4: than everybody else? Well, he inherited two of those and 719 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 4: now they're gone, and can he get those guys to 720 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:54,239 Speaker 4: u C l A. 721 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:55,839 Speaker 2: Like, I just didn't think the. 722 00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 4: International guys were going to work for Mick Kroony, Like 723 00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:01,719 Speaker 4: I understand what he he was saying with was like, 724 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 4: I don't have to. 725 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 1: Worry about TNIL though, Like the perception is perception is 726 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,920 Speaker 1: that European players are more coaching. That the way to 727 00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:17,200 Speaker 1: make coaches, the way that the older school. That's how 728 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:19,319 Speaker 1: your coach. And that's true, that that is how your coach. 729 00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 1: Much more the coach is a much bigger factor overseason 730 00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:26,880 Speaker 1: than he is in the United States in terms of 731 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 1: you know, what the coach says goes. It's just that's 732 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 1: that's the way I go. But yeah, it's not that 733 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,040 Speaker 1: they got international players. You've got to get the right 734 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 1: ones and can't have as much youth as they're playing. 735 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:47,479 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think it's a it's an interesting deal. 736 00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 1: Interest interest really going to be interesting what happens at UCLA, Like, 737 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 1: what what are we actually doing here with the most 738 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:59,279 Speaker 1: story program in the history of college basketball and you 739 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:04,399 Speaker 1: have a coach again, it's it's very similar to uh 740 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:07,760 Speaker 1: when Alfred first got there, he won with Ben Allen's players. 741 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:10,920 Speaker 1: When Ben Allen first got there, obviously he flipped it 742 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,920 Speaker 1: in recruiting whatever. Ben actually won the PAC twelve in 743 00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,879 Speaker 1: his last year, which is crazy. 744 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:19,719 Speaker 2: Right, right, They were just tired. 745 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:22,479 Speaker 1: Of him allan thing. I mean, it was a little 746 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 1: bit of like what's happened to Mick? Where because it 747 00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:31,319 Speaker 1: didn't go well with Drew Drew Hollis, they stopped, they 748 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: couldn't get LA kids anymore, and then Mick and I 749 00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:40,040 Speaker 1: don't know enough about what happened, but Jared McCain, Caleb 750 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:44,719 Speaker 1: Boss or Dusty Stromer, oh for three and you're coming 751 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:46,800 Speaker 1: off upon a port Yeah. 752 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:50,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, so yeah. I think part of it. 753 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:55,360 Speaker 4: Part of it with Mick was again he's not warming fuzzy, 754 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 4: and I think with even the current players, it's hard 755 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 4: these days, right, It's hard when you throw him under 756 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:04,919 Speaker 4: the bus. Woodson's done that in Indiana bunch this year. 757 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:07,359 Speaker 4: Are you going to retain him? Because they have other 758 00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,960 Speaker 4: options now, they don't have to sit out. They don't 759 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 4: have to sit out anymore. 760 00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:14,080 Speaker 1: They can go well again, I don't know. I mean, 761 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:19,279 Speaker 1: after he threw him under the bus, they reeled off 762 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 1: a bunch of wins. They one or nine. I just 763 00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,480 Speaker 1: don't think One they're too young to even really know. 764 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:29,960 Speaker 1: And then two there's some guys who just aren't very good. 765 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:33,480 Speaker 1: And I also think he needs to evolve his offensive style. 766 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 1: I did the UCLA Arizona game two nights ago, and 767 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:39,759 Speaker 1: in the first half, they kept throwing the ball to 768 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 1: a den Bona in the low post, like, one, what 769 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:47,480 Speaker 1: are we doing? 770 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's not your option if that's number one, And I'm. 771 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:52,279 Speaker 1: Sure that's what he's saying, like, hey, look, this is 772 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:53,480 Speaker 1: the best chance I have to win, Like, you know, 773 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 1: it's not. He can't couldn't score the low post to 774 00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:58,360 Speaker 1: be locked him in the gym now with a running 775 00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 1: start to basket on how and rolls. Yeah, he's tremendous. 776 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,440 Speaker 1: That was a weird one there to keep throwing inside. 777 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:12,239 Speaker 1: He had twelve shots in the first half. Yes, well yeah, wow, Okay, 778 00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:17,759 Speaker 1: so we've gone through all the any Okay, so big 779 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:24,560 Speaker 1: eiast It'll only be only be DePaul Big ten big 780 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:29,680 Speaker 1: ten hoybrig chept his job. Ben Johnson, Okay, so take 781 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,319 Speaker 1: me through the mission. Uh huh. 782 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 4: I mean it's probably gonna be up to Juan. It's 783 00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 4: probably gonna be up to Juan and whether he wants 784 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,799 Speaker 4: to top out or not. You know, he's obviously had 785 00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:44,880 Speaker 4: some health issues and they've been atrocious. And you know, 786 00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 4: one of his kids in the NBA kind of I 787 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:49,960 Speaker 4: think the other one's got a year left, but you know, 788 00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:51,840 Speaker 4: he had an issue with a strength coach. I mean, 789 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 4: there's just been so much shit there and I don't 790 00:43:56,280 --> 00:44:00,839 Speaker 4: I don't think Wardmanual fires him. I think in kind 791 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,080 Speaker 4: of like with Mike Woodson, I think there'll be some 792 00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:06,920 Speaker 4: changes made among the staff if he comes back. But 793 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 4: I don't I don't think Warmanuel has the kohonas to fire, 794 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:16,520 Speaker 4: to call him in and say, hey, you're done. 795 00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:17,279 Speaker 2: I don't. 796 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:23,279 Speaker 4: Uh my Florida State, I think Leonard Hamilton will be 797 00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:24,520 Speaker 4: told to retire. 798 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:27,920 Speaker 2: I believe that will be the case here. We'll see. 799 00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 4: He'll fight it, I would think, but I think this 800 00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:34,840 Speaker 4: might be a for him a second straight you know, 801 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:37,480 Speaker 4: under five hundred year in the ACC. 802 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:39,880 Speaker 2: Miami. 803 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,239 Speaker 4: I think Laareneagle will be back for another They were 804 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 4: atrocious this year, but I think he'll be back for 805 00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 4: another year. We talked about a little bit about Bobby Hurley. 806 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 4: I think Tinka will be back. Anybody else. I think 807 00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 4: Enfield's a year away from you know, I'll go next 808 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,759 Speaker 4: year into the hot seat a little bit. Whether it's 809 00:45:00,800 --> 00:45:06,360 Speaker 4: fair or not, I don't know. Sec Bandy we talked about. 810 00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:09,360 Speaker 4: I think that'll be it. And then again, you just 811 00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,160 Speaker 4: got to look at some of these other guys that 812 00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:13,719 Speaker 4: I don't know if they want to retire or not yet. 813 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:16,799 Speaker 4: But like again, we've talked about Mark Feu that won't 814 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:20,319 Speaker 4: be easy if he does. Tony Bennett, I don't think 815 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:24,279 Speaker 4: he retires, but who knows. Uh, Buzz Williams trying to 816 00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:26,440 Speaker 4: get out because you know, you know, there's a window 817 00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:29,600 Speaker 4: shelf life on Buzz everywhere he is, so he'll try 818 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:34,760 Speaker 4: to get out if he can. You know, Todd Golden, 819 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:40,200 Speaker 4: what happens there? Does he go back out west from Florida? 820 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:44,480 Speaker 2: We'll see?
