Speaker 2: for the final hours, Seaton. You want to clean up
Speaker 2: what we had in the first two hours of the program.
Speaker 4: Yet we're putting up two new ones for the third
Speaker 4: hour retiring at thirty sounds awesome or not for me?
Speaker 5: All right?
Speaker 3: Russell going to put up there.
Speaker 4: The Titan should draft a quarterback or trade down that pick.
Speaker 4: And for the first hour, well the first two hours
Speaker 4: we had up there where if you lived in Arkansas,
Speaker 4: would you rather a title in basketball or a national title?
Speaker 3: It should say?
Speaker 2: Now, how this started was accidental. I'm looking at the
Speaker 2: matchups in the Sweet sixteen, the point spreads, and all
Speaker 2: of a sudden, I started going down the list and saying,
Speaker 2: is that a football school or basketball? Like Arkansas is
Speaker 2: a basketball school, wanting to be a football school, And
Speaker 2: as Tom is Michigan State said, most schools want to
Speaker 2: be a football school because that's where your money is,
Speaker 2: that's where your revenue is. Like BYU, BYU is a
Speaker 2: football school, Alabama a football school. Florida I would say
Speaker 2: a football school. Maryland maybe not either, Arizona. I'd say
Speaker 2: it is a basketball school. Duke basketball school, Arkansas basketball school,
Speaker 2: Texas Tech football school, Old Miss football, Michigan State basketball,
Speaker 2: Kentucky basketball, Tennessee football, Michigan football, Auburn. They want to
Speaker 2: be football, but they're successful in basketball. Purdue basketball, Houston basketball.
Speaker 6: Yeah, pull BYU temporarily feels like a basketball school. Didn't
Speaker 6: they get the number one high school recruit. Yeah, that
Speaker 6: kind of forces your hand towards basketball school.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you're only getting for one year. Yes, that's
Speaker 2: the problem. Hey, we got the number one recruit. Great,
Speaker 2: you get to enjoy him for one year. And Tom
Speaker 2: Izzo brought up that he does go after the guys
Speaker 2: that would be considered one and done. Jason Richardson's son
Speaker 2: is going to be one and done just like his
Speaker 2: dad at Michigan State. But you know, you start to
Speaker 2: think about nil, you start to think about how that
Speaker 2: affects your team. And I know that we keep talking
Speaker 2: and focusing on the players, so all the players, they're
Speaker 2: jumping around. The players didn't say let's have the transfer
Speaker 2: portal during March Madness.
Speaker 7: You know.
Speaker 2: Dick Vitao tweeted this out yesterday. Dickiev said, isn't it
Speaker 2: absurd that the transfer portal opens during the heart of
Speaker 2: March Madness. Okay, Dick should be calling out who are
Speaker 2: the grownups who agreed to this? The kids didn't, the
Speaker 2: grownups did. Dicky b goes, there's so much instability in
Speaker 2: college basketball, yet the upper echelon from administrators are talking
Speaker 2: about messing with one golden event March madness, talking about expanding,
Speaker 2: and he says pathetic. Yes, so call out these people
Speaker 2: who are they, But don't blame the kids, because look,
Speaker 2: this is business, and yes, is it uncomfortable for everybody? Yes,
Speaker 2: You've got kids who are going to be playing these
Speaker 2: games coming up this next week that are going to
Speaker 2: transfer to another school. You're going to have this until
Speaker 2: they find a way to allow everybody to navigate in
Speaker 2: a timeframe that is conducive to what their needs are.
Speaker 2: That's a coach. I mean, nobody has a problem with
Speaker 2: a coach leaving right now. No one is going to
Speaker 2: have a problem with a coach trying to poach players.
Speaker 2: Your team's out of the tournament.
Speaker 3: You're going to be proaching players who are in the tournament.
Speaker 3: It's going to happen.
Speaker 2: It does happen, it has happened, will continue to happen.
Speaker 2: But yes, it's going on. But let's not confuse with
Speaker 2: what Will Wade did at McNee State. So his team
Speaker 2: is playing in the tournament, he's talking about leaving to
Speaker 2: go to NC State. Sean Miller going to Texas a
Speaker 2: couple of days after his team was eliminated. I mean,
Speaker 2: this happens, This happens right now. This is when schools
Speaker 2: make changes. You bring in a coach after your season
Speaker 2: is over. Players are going to look at it same way.
Speaker 2: And until somebody gets a good handle on this. And
Speaker 2: I've not heard anything yet. I mean they're trying to
Speaker 2: figure out the name, image and likeness and what you
Speaker 2: can and cannot make. What can the school pay you?
Speaker 2: And now they can pay you coming in as a freshman.
Speaker 2: Where's And they were doing this before I know that,
Speaker 2: but now they're like, no, you can actually be everything's
Speaker 2: above board.
Speaker 3: Now you can.
Speaker 2: You can give the enticement of what you're going to
Speaker 2: pay somebody before they get there, because there is no
Speaker 2: big time recruit who's going to say, all right, I'm
Speaker 2: trying to choose between Florida and Kentucky. I'll just hope
Speaker 2: that you guys take care of me when I get there.
Speaker 2: You're want that you want this map down? When do
Speaker 2: I get paid? Do I get a sign And now
Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you that. Talk to a source
Speaker 2: yesterday said, okay, you cannot mention the names. I said,
Speaker 2: no names. You you ask for a signing bonus. You
Speaker 2: want to know when you get paid and can you
Speaker 2: have a say in who you recruit? Now this is
Speaker 2: a package deal, right like this is there's a player
Speaker 2: that this is happening right now coming out of high school.
Speaker 2: And so I mean, you're asking for these things. And
Speaker 2: you know, Tom Izzer was talking about this with Michigan State.
Speaker 2: He's like, hey, you know it's about money. They all
Speaker 2: know that it's there. They want theirs. And then now
Speaker 2: you'll get players who will hold your current team hostage
Speaker 2: because if you don't match what I'm going to get
Speaker 2: if I go to this school, then I'm going so
Speaker 2: imagine that. But it's business. This is coaches do this.
Speaker 2: Les Miles did this at LSU. It felt like on
Speaker 2: a yearly basis, Hey, you know who's interested in me?
Speaker 2: Oh god, lest don't tell me. Arkansas? Yeah, Arkansas, and
Speaker 2: then all right, we'll give you a raise. So this
Speaker 2: is what's happening. Does it take away from March madness
Speaker 2: a little bit if you allow it to. But this
Speaker 2: is next time next year. At this time, you're gonna
Speaker 2: be saying, oh god, that guy played for that school.
Speaker 2: Oh he transferred to Yes, that's happening now, and we'll
Speaker 2: continue to happen. But we get up in arms with
Speaker 2: the players, like how dare you do this to our game?
Speaker 2: No one says anything about the coaches who do the
Speaker 2: same thing. And the coaches have been doing this. They
Speaker 2: didn't have to sit out a year. Remember that we're
Speaker 2: going to discourage you. We're gonna make you sit out
Speaker 2: a year. And players did coaches. Don't imagine if you
Speaker 2: said that to Will wait at mcnee's state. Hey, you
Speaker 2: can leave, but you got.
Speaker 3: To sit out of here. Eh.
Speaker 2: Okay, what's he gonna do? I think I'll stay right
Speaker 2: here till the end of my contract, yes, Paul.
Speaker 6: Going back to the portal opening in the middle of
Speaker 6: the NCAA tournament last year, it was worse. In twenty
Speaker 6: twenty four. The college basketball transfer portal opened on March eighteenth.
Speaker 6: This year, they pushed it back a week. Last year,
Speaker 6: the portal window was forty five days. They've tightened it
Speaker 6: to thirty days. So it's going in the correct direction.
Speaker 6: Still not perfect, Yeah, I agree.
Speaker 7: All right.
Speaker 2: We started the show, we talked about the injury to
Speaker 2: Juju Watkins. It's been confirmed she will have ACL surgery
Speaker 2: and this is a long process that will affect next
Speaker 2: season for her, and it's a big blow for the
Speaker 2: sport because she is one of those you know, you
Speaker 2: have an athlete, you have somebody really good, but they
Speaker 2: cross over into becoming more than that. It becomes more
Speaker 2: of basketball, but social media and you know her by
Speaker 2: her name, her first name, Juju, And you know you
Speaker 2: got Hannah Hidalgo at Notre Dame. You got Page Beckers
Speaker 2: at you cunning LSU has a couple of players. South
Speaker 2: Carolina has a great team bets at UCLA. I mean,
Speaker 2: you have some players there, but this was there was
Speaker 2: so much more menim and you built this upon the
Speaker 2: interest in Kitlyn Clark last year and there was a
Speaker 2: clean handoff from Caitlin Clark to Juju. And now blows
Speaker 2: out her knee and is going to be gone for
Speaker 2: a while and it's probably you know, I would say
Speaker 2: eight months, eight months to be fair, but it's the
Speaker 2: doubt when you come back from this. And as I've
Speaker 2: said many times about my knee surgeries, when I first
Speaker 2: came back from my first one, you were afraid to
Speaker 2: do anything, like you didn't want to jump. You watch
Speaker 2: you know, you did lateral movement left and right because
Speaker 2: you're like, oh my god. You know, medicine has come
Speaker 2: a long long way. I mean I had my first
Speaker 2: surgery probably at twenty four, and just had a knee
Speaker 2: replacement a couple of years ago. But taking care of
Speaker 2: it the right way and making sure she rehabs and
Speaker 2: keep her out as long as possible until she is
Speaker 2: mentally as tough as what you know, physically, her knee
Speaker 2: is going to have to endure. But yeah, very disappointing
Speaker 2: because I was looking forward to that Yukon USC matchup again.
Speaker 3: All Right, see, so we have a poll question for
Speaker 3: the final hour of the program. Yeah, we got several
Speaker 3: of them.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, Okay, get a couple of phone calls
Speaker 2: in here.
Speaker 6: Yes, we're getting a lot of people on Twitter asking
Speaker 6: about their college and where they stand. I'll just throw
Speaker 6: one out there, Okay, University of Missouri journalism, which is
Speaker 6: a compliment.
Speaker 2: I would say there they become a football ish program.
Speaker 6: They've had a few good years.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that. Uh who is it Eli Eli drinkwater?
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I think he's done a pretty good job there.
Speaker 6: But in the eighties and nineties very basketball ish.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I go back to Steve Stepanovitch at Missouri. John
Speaker 2: Sunvold think.
Speaker 3: Was the point guard on that team. All Right, you
Speaker 3: got another school that people would like our opinion.
Speaker 6: On Stamford if you had to take away academics.
Speaker 3: Oh, okay, their volleyball school, swimming school, swimming school.
Speaker 6: How about this, they're an Olympics factory.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I could I could see that that.
Speaker 6: May surpass their basketball or football acumen.
Speaker 2: Well their football program that pick up a white courtesy
Speaker 2: phone in a while, like what happened basketball is m Well,
Speaker 2: they were known for women's basketball more than men's basketball.
Speaker 2: Had somebody say well what about Oklahoma and I thought, well,
Speaker 2: wait a minute, Oklahoma is a football school. And then
Speaker 2: some people are saying, well what about the women's softball?
Speaker 2: I go, okay, yeah, all right. I don't know if
Speaker 2: that would go over well with the alumni, like hey, Oklahoma,
Speaker 2: well we're great at softball and you do dominate, but
Speaker 2: you guys want to be a football program, and you are.
Speaker 3: You are a football program. Yes, Marvin, it.
Speaker 8: Kind of hurt when Lincoln Riley and Caleb Williams both left.
Speaker 8: Yeah yeah, that's supposed to be the school that you
Speaker 8: go to, not leave.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Zach in Knoxville, Hi, Zach, what's on your mind today? Oh?
Speaker 10: Hey DP, thanks for taking my call. I know I
Speaker 10: just called into a national radio program, but if you
Speaker 10: could respect my privacy, I would appreciate it.
Speaker 3: Thank you, Tiger.
Speaker 11: Yeah yeah.
Speaker 10: Based off your parameters of what you're talking about with
Speaker 10: schools being known for something, I think nationally it's what
Speaker 10: have you done lately, but in the city, it's what
Speaker 10: the historical context of it is. Because Tennessee will beat
Speaker 10: Akron and UT martin their first two football games, and
Speaker 10: then everybody's here saying it feels like ninety eight. But
Speaker 10: if you think about it, Rick Barnes, what he's done
Speaker 10: over the last eight or ten years is kind to
Speaker 10: turn them into a basketball school.
Speaker 9: And then you got to.
Speaker 10: Think about what Pat did. Pat Summit did here, and
Speaker 10: they're kind of a women's basketball that's the most prolific.
Speaker 3: Program though they used to be.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but Zach, let me ask you the following Tennessee
Speaker 2: can win the SEC football championship or Tennessee can win
Speaker 2: the national title in basketball.
Speaker 10: Well, I'm not a Tennessee fan, and that's why I
Speaker 10: love being here.
Speaker 3: Heckling then, but I think they.
Speaker 10: Would take I think they would take the SEC championship.
Speaker 3: Where did you go to school?
Speaker 10: I went to Pellisippi State. I'm a community college along,
Speaker 10: but I'm from Connecticut actually, so I'm a Yukon.
Speaker 3: I'm a Yukon.
Speaker 2: Okay, if Yukon could win, No, you're not gonna never mind.
Speaker 2: I was going to say, if Yukon won their conference
Speaker 2: championship in football, or that the men's team or women's
Speaker 2: team won a national title.
Speaker 3: I know where you'd go, yes, Paul, I.
Speaker 6: Just looked up Pelissippi State Panthers and I don't know
Speaker 6: much about their background, but they have football and baseball
Speaker 6: and basketball.
Speaker 3: Pelissippi, Pelisippi State Panthers.
Speaker 6: It's a small school in uh Knoxville, Tennessee, Okay Community.
Speaker 2: College Emmitt in Connecticut. Hi, Ammitt, what's on your mind?
Speaker 7: Hey? Dan?
Speaker 12: Hey, I am at six to two and a scale
Speaker 12: two hundred to two thirty depending on the week.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 12: I think these schools all want to be what they're not,
Speaker 12: obviously being in the basketball capital of the world and
Speaker 12: a huge Dan Hurley fan. Now after Calhoun, they keep
Speaker 12: trying to make us a football school and we are
Speaker 12: everything but a football school.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Jim Mora I had some a little
Speaker 2: bit of success there, would you say, Marvin football wise?
Speaker 8: Yes, but kind trying to be a football school is
Speaker 8: what ruined Yukon basketball for a few years.
Speaker 3: It ruined the Big East, that's correct. They all wanted
Speaker 3: to have football programs.
Speaker 2: I'm like, you just ruined the best basketball conference in history.
Speaker 3: Harvey in Florida High. Harvey.
Speaker 7: Hey, Hey Dan, first time caller, longtime watcher, UH five seven.
Speaker 7: I'm eighty years old. Okay, I'm a walking, talking way
Speaker 7: back machine, and I can tell you to start with
Speaker 7: about University of Kentucky when they are aspired to be
Speaker 7: both a football and basketball.
Speaker 3: Powerhouse with Bear Bryant.
Speaker 7: Late forties and early fifties, Hey, among other things. I'm
Speaker 7: also I also have a linked to Paul's si U Carbondale. Anyway,
Speaker 7: I just I just got a lot of whole man
Speaker 7: things going for me. Okay. Eightolph RUPs teams in the
Speaker 7: late forties and early fifties were I mean they were,
Speaker 7: they were top drawer basketball. Of course, I even had
Speaker 7: pat Riley connection, a fellow that I played uh driveway
Speaker 7: basketball with was the manager of the team the UK
Speaker 7: when one of the managers when Pat pat Riley played. So,
Speaker 7: I mean, I can I can answer your question if
Speaker 7: you've got anything about Bear Bryant.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I know I just mentioned Bear Bryant. But
Speaker 2: I'm I'm up against a commercial break here, Harvey. But
Speaker 2: you can always call in you want to call in
Speaker 2: and correct me. Yeah, Having eight off Rup and Bear
Speaker 2: Bryant at Kentucky with you RUPs, runts and Bear went
Speaker 2: from there to what Texas A and M and then
Speaker 2: he went to Alabama after that. Yeah, so Harvey's eighty
Speaker 2: years of age, He's got a lot of information. I
Speaker 2: think pat Riley jumps center when Kentucky played Texas El
Speaker 2: Paso or yeah, Texas Western in the National title game.
Speaker 2: I think pat Riley and that that wasn't a very
Speaker 2: tall Kentucky team. But I think Ryles was the he
Speaker 2: jumped center that day when they lost to Texas Western.
Speaker 3: All right, let me take a break now.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to show off for Harvey to let him
Speaker 2: know that I know what he knows. Getting old has
Speaker 2: some benefits. Sorry, we'll take a break. We're back after this.

Speaker 2: For the second time in two games, the Lakers, playing
Speaker 2: with Lebron and Luca, lost, so following a seven game
Speaker 2: absence by Lebron, they've lost their last two. They got
Speaker 2: roughed up by Orlando last night, so the victory snapped
Speaker 2: a six game losing streak at home for the Magic
Speaker 2: and you start to look at the Lakers. You lose
Speaker 2: that game, you're in a fourth place tie in the
Speaker 2: West with Memphis and a half game behind the third
Speaker 2: place Nuggets. The Nuggets have been playing without Joker for
Speaker 2: a while, but Lebron came back and he had twenty
Speaker 2: four eight and six. Luca had like twenty four to
Speaker 2: seven and seven. But now we're starting to get to
Speaker 2: that interesting time where you know, you start to look
Speaker 2: at where you're going to be seated, and who you're
Speaker 2: going to be playing with and against, and you know
Speaker 2: what the second round matchup could be, home court advantage,
Speaker 2: all of these things. Yeah, it feels like that, and
Speaker 2: I don't know, you know, jokers situation, but missing five
Speaker 2: games at this time of the year doesn't seem like
Speaker 2: they're too concerned with where they're going to be in
Speaker 2: the play they'll be in the playoffs.
Speaker 3: You just want to be in the top four. You
Speaker 3: want to have home court advantage there, Yeah, Pauling.
Speaker 6: Look at the West. The eighth seed right now is
Speaker 6: Minnesota with forty one wins. The two seed is Houston
Speaker 6: with forty six wins. Just five games up and down.
Speaker 6: It's going to vary over the next few weeks.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, just back and forth. I was watching Boston
Speaker 2: with Jason Tatum had a big night, but then he
Speaker 2: had an ankle injury in that win against the Sacramento Kings.
Speaker 2: You know, you have to give somebody a landing spot.
Speaker 2: And you know, they thank God that they police this
Speaker 2: because you would have guys who would do this. And
Speaker 2: I remember in high school they would get underneath you.
Speaker 2: They'd put your their foot underneath you, so when you
Speaker 2: go up to take a shot, you would see them
Speaker 2: invade your space. So if you came down, you were
Speaker 2: going to land on their foot and you were going
Speaker 2: to roll your ankle. And that I mean, they were
Speaker 2: good at outlawing that, making sure that you are if
Speaker 2: you go up you can come back down. But yet
Speaker 2: Tatum rolling his ankle, and but the Celtics did get
Speaker 2: the win, all right. You know, it's quiet week for
Speaker 2: the NFL, and sometimes that's when things get done. I
Speaker 2: know there was a lot of attention with Aaron Rodgers
Speaker 2: last week. Six hours in Pittsburgh. I don't know what
Speaker 2: you do in six hours in Pittsburgh unless you know
Speaker 2: you take a physical you watch, you know, some videos
Speaker 2: of the steel Curtain and you go to a Pirates
Speaker 2: game or something, but they're not even there. They're in
Speaker 2: spring training. But six hours, okay, did he get everything
Speaker 2: answered that he needed to get answered? Did the Steelers
Speaker 2: get everything answered that they needed to And you know,
Speaker 2: he might not sign with anybody until after the draft,
Speaker 2: which I go, no, it can't go on that long.
Speaker 2: If I'm Pittsburgh and I said this before you're Pittsburgh,
Speaker 2: I don't lower yourself. And you're probably gonna draft a
Speaker 2: quarterback if that quarterback is there, if Jackson Dart is there,
Speaker 2: I think you're going to draft a quarterback. But Aaron Rodgers, Okay,
Speaker 2: you wait, Minnesota doesn't feel like that's happening. I guess
Speaker 2: the Giants can still happen. Whatever the Giants are doing.
Speaker 2: Do they take Shador Sanders? You got Jamis Winston? What
Speaker 2: if you don't? What if Cleveland takes shud or you know.
Speaker 2: So there's all kinds of scenarios here, but it's quiet,
Speaker 2: and it feels like that's when something gets done. Russell Wilson,
Speaker 2: he's still he's waiting. What's he going to do? I mean,
Speaker 2: the Giants have Jamis, they don't Russ. But if you
Speaker 2: don't get shod or Sanders, do you want Jameis Winston
Speaker 2: as your starting quarterback? Or Tommy Salami what's his name?
Speaker 2: Tommy de Vito still there? Yeah, yeah, So there's there's
Speaker 2: things going on. I just don't know if we're going
Speaker 2: to have any movement anytime soon. But when it's quiet,
Speaker 2: that's usually when somebody's going to make a decision. The
Speaker 2: Puka Nakuas story. Now he's on a podcast and he's
Speaker 2: a wonderful player. He's turning twenty four, and he waited
Speaker 2: went into great detail of how long he's going to
Speaker 2: play in the NFL.
Speaker 14: I want to retire at the age of thirty. I'm
Speaker 14: twenty three right now. I'm going into year three. I
Speaker 14: think of Aaron Dnald, like man like to go out.
Speaker 6: At the top.
Speaker 14: I think it would be super cool, but they'll also
Speaker 14: be like yo, like I want to. I want to
Speaker 14: have a big family, just like I want. I want
Speaker 14: to have at least the starting five. I'm like, I
Speaker 14: can't have a big familus I need five boys. I
Speaker 14: need five boys for sure, that's cool, but also be
Speaker 14: like man, I want to be able to be a
Speaker 14: part of their lives and like, like be as active
Speaker 14: as I can with them. So I'm like, I don't
Speaker 14: want to be the injuries are something that you can't
Speaker 14: control part of the games. Like I'm man like, you
Speaker 14: never know. Hopefully like the rest of the Camara go healthy.
Speaker 14: But I'm like, man, you have soular surgery, you have
Speaker 14: knee surgery, you have ankle owner and be like yo, like,
Speaker 14: by the time my kids could be eighteen, I'm like,
Speaker 14: I could be very walking if I like, if you
Speaker 14: play the game and like you sustain all the injuries,
Speaker 14: I want to retire early.
Speaker 2: Okay, it sounds good in theory that you're going to
Speaker 2: play six more years, and that may feel like an eternity,
Speaker 2: like six more years because he's turning twenty four, you
Speaker 2: get that big contract, You're not you know now the
Speaker 2: rams if you're going to negotiate with him, you know
Speaker 2: that he says he's only going to play always thirty,
Speaker 2: and what kind of contract are you giving him? Do
Speaker 2: you have a contract that leads up to when he
Speaker 2: turns thirty, just to say all right, here's your contract.
Speaker 2: But it's almost like he's negotiating against himself. You know.
Speaker 2: If I'm the Rams, I'm like, uh, wait a minute,
Speaker 2: you're twenty nine. You want a three year deal. Didn't
Speaker 2: you say you were retiring at thirty. Yeah, that was
Speaker 2: a long time ago, when I was twenty three. Yeah, Paul, Yeah, Dan,
Speaker 2: you're right.
Speaker 6: The math doesn't add up for Puka to get that
Speaker 6: big contract based off what he's at now. He got
Speaker 6: the fifth round contract for four years. He'll be twenty
Speaker 6: seven in year one of his big deal. He only
Speaker 6: makes nine hundred and fifteen thousand a year. He makes
Speaker 6: a million next year, a million one in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 6: So if he got one of those four year whatever deals,
Speaker 6: it would start at age twenty seven.
Speaker 3: Would you rather have Puka Nakua or Bronck Perdy?
Speaker 6: That old fatafic? But you're right though, he's negotiating against
Speaker 6: himself with that hard window.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, all right. We'll get to more phone calls here.
Speaker 2: We got caught up in uh, what is your school?
Speaker 2: What's the identity of your school? And it started with
Speaker 2: Arkansas and people have asked, what about my alma Monter Dayton.
Speaker 2: We Dayton's of basketball school always has been, always will be.
Speaker 2: But they've had John Gruden who graduated from there, and
Speaker 2: Chuck Noell graduated from there. But it's a they've had success.
Speaker 2: Division three national champs. I think they beat Ithaca seventy
Speaker 2: three to nothing. No national title game, but yeah, it's
Speaker 2: a basketball school definitely. Here's here's something for you, you know,
Speaker 2: when you want to talk about the transfer portal and
Speaker 2: the impact it's had on the NCAA tournament. Twenty nineteen,
Speaker 2: the percentage of points from transfers in the tournament sixteen percent,
Speaker 2: went up to twenty eight percent, went up to thirty
Speaker 2: four percent, went up to forty four percent, went up
Speaker 2: to forty eight percent. This year, the percentage of points
Speaker 2: from transfers in the tournament fifty two point seven percent.
Speaker 15: Ow Stell of a Day Stan a day, Stall of
Speaker 15: a day, Stan a day. This is the Stele of
Speaker 15: the Day.
Speaker 2: Brought to you by Panini America, the official trading cards
Speaker 2: to the show. Matt in Charlotte. Hi, Matt, what's on
Speaker 2: your mind today?
Speaker 16: You know?
Speaker 11: Five ten? I think, thank you. I think the biggest
Speaker 11: example playing out in this difference between you know, identifying
Speaker 11: your schools is at Penn State. I'm told they've won
Speaker 11: twelve to the last fifteen national titles in wrestling, which
Speaker 11: includes three different times four peaks in a row, which
Speaker 11: is just you know, that's that's better than UCLA.
Speaker 3: It's around back in the day.
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, But how many schools have a wrestling program.
Speaker 2: Everybody has a basketball program, So we let's not compare
Speaker 2: it with UCLA. We're talking about a national reputation. I
Speaker 2: always known for their wrestling as well. I mean Oklahoma
Speaker 2: State for their wrestling, Penn State for their wrestling. But
Speaker 2: they're all football schools. They want to be football schools.
Speaker 2: Penn State is a football school. RJ in Iowa, Hi RJ.
Speaker 16: Hey guys six three, two thirty five. Dad played for
Speaker 16: the legendary coach Lucetta at HF PAULI.
Speaker 17: I think you might appreciate that.
Speaker 7: Sure.
Speaker 16: The question I had for Dan was this transfer portal.
Speaker 16: In football, we hear about how they can't they can't
Speaker 16: start the transfer portal until the the semester's over. And
Speaker 16: now we're in basketball season and you're telling me that
Speaker 16: we can't start the we have to do it like
Speaker 16: before the semester's over. I don't really understand the logic
Speaker 16: between those two.
Speaker 2: And I mean, I'm still trying to figure this out
Speaker 2: of the timing of all of this, and maybe you
Speaker 2: know it's unavoidable because of the semesters that you're on
Speaker 2: and being able to transfer to a school and start
Speaker 2: the school, but it's just it's a bad look when
Speaker 2: you have the bowl season and transfer portal season and
Speaker 2: now you have March Madness than you have transfer portal
Speaker 2: Rob in Indiana High Rob.
Speaker 17: Hey, dan Ay a really long time. First time with
Speaker 17: your conversation about various colleges and what they're known for.
Speaker 17: How about strolling Wisconsin in there girls and boys hockey, basketball, football,
Speaker 17: what's your opinion?
Speaker 3: Well, I would say football.
Speaker 2: They've been really good in basketball, but I would say
Speaker 2: Wisconsin's a football school now, I mean we're throwing in
Speaker 2: other things women's you know, hockey. That's great for you
Speaker 2: if you go to Wisconsin or you live in Madison.
Speaker 2: I'm talking about nationally. When people say Wisconsin, what do
Speaker 2: you think of sports wise? And I think you think
Speaker 2: of football. It doesn't mean that, Hey, what about our
Speaker 2: baseball team? Or I get that. I'm talking about the
Speaker 2: What's the first thing that comes to mind when I
Speaker 2: say UCLA, it's basketball, USC it's football, like that's you know,
Speaker 2: there's certain Maryland.
Speaker 3: I don't have an opinion.
Speaker 8: Yes, Martmon, Yeah, Wisconsin is in a really good spot
Speaker 8: because one and you know, one season they can be
Speaker 8: playing for the Big Ten championship in football and then
Speaker 8: in March they'll be playing in the Final four. So
Speaker 8: they're in that really good spot of either one of
Speaker 8: those programs can make a deep run.
Speaker 2: Yeah, not winning a national title, but still being competitive.
Speaker 2: They're in the picture in those sports. Luke and Ohio, Hi, Luke,
Speaker 2: what do you have for me?
Speaker 7: Hey?
Speaker 5: Dam hey, Luke. I was just wondering. I know it's
Speaker 5: probably getting repetitive, but you see Bearcats. I know they
Speaker 5: won some titles back in the early sixties, they went
Speaker 5: to the playoffs when I was going there in twenty
Speaker 5: twenty one. Would you consider them a football or basketball school?
Speaker 2: I would consider them football now. You know, they were
Speaker 2: very successful back in the sixties. I mean they had
Speaker 2: other pockets where they were very good in basketball. But
Speaker 2: I mean they've been in the playoffs. I think Cincinnati
Speaker 2: probably views itself as in Cincinnati's a college town too.
Speaker 2: They love their basketball. There was Xavier in Cincinnati. But
Speaker 2: I would say, you see is probably a football program.
Speaker 8: Yes, Marv, I'm gonna have a Paul Patts moment. I'm
Speaker 8: going with basketball because the uniforms are just phenomenal. Okaypacial
Speaker 8: uniforms in college.
Speaker 3: Basketball, Cincinnati has the best uniforms.
Speaker 8: Maybe I'm going with the Kenyan Martin Steve Logan Cincinnati
Speaker 8: ra or late nineties, early two thousands, they had the
Speaker 8: Jordan brand, the perfect color, perfect color scheme, black, red
Speaker 8: and white, perfection.
Speaker 3: I did not think I was getting that today. That
Speaker 3: was not on my bingo card.
Speaker 6: Yes, Paul, if we're going to discuss the best uniforms
Speaker 6: in college basketball, you may have to remove North Carolina
Speaker 6: from the conversation. I'm not even a fan of them,
Speaker 6: especial because they're a football schools basketball uniforms.
Speaker 3: If Bill Belichick gets gets into the national title in
Speaker 3: missus Belichick.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if she'll be missus Do you
Speaker 2: think she's gonna be Missus Belichick at at some point?
Speaker 6: He yes, Oh yeah, I'll take that.
Speaker 2: Okay, who gets married first, Travis Kelcey or Bill Belichick
Speaker 2: at all?
Speaker 3: Topic? Got it's good, she rev. Let me take a break.
Speaker 3: Let's ponder that question.
Speaker 2: I don't want you to just react off the top
Speaker 2: of you know, off the cuff here, something like that.
Speaker 2: All right, we'll take a break. Last call for phone calls,
Speaker 2: What we learn, What's in store tomorrow?
Speaker 1: After this, be sure to catch the live edition of

Speaker 2: is your school? What's it known for? I loved it
Speaker 2: Rick and Syracuse? What is Syracuse? What is Syracuse? When
Speaker 2: you think of Rick, I'll ask you Syracuse is a
Speaker 2: football school or a basketball school?
Speaker 5: I want to say basketball.
Speaker 17: Craig Fork went to my high school, but I don't know that.
Speaker 18: Or is it a lacross school.
Speaker 2: I would say it's a sports media school. I mean,
Speaker 2: in my world, you think of Syracuse. I mean you
Speaker 2: think of full Sale University, but you also think of
Speaker 2: Syracuse and Missouri and Northwestern Arizona State. Uh Frank frankin Connecticut,
Speaker 2: Hi Frank, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 17: Hey?
Speaker 7: Dan?
Speaker 18: Shout out to my neighbors Paulie and Marvin.
Speaker 5: Okay, I just want to.
Speaker 18: Say you're missing Saint John's. Saint John's is known as
Speaker 18: a basketball school, but we forget that it produced a
Speaker 18: great golfer, got a great golf team, Keegan Bradley. Yeah,
Speaker 18: major winner and now are Ryder Cup captain.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but let's be fair, Frank, Saint John's a basketball school.
Speaker 2: They don't have football, they have basketball, they do have
Speaker 2: a good golf program.
Speaker 3: I don't think that's what people think of.
Speaker 2: If all of the Danis didn't as you brought up
Speaker 2: Keegan Bradley, they didn't even realize Keigan Bradley went to
Speaker 2: Saint John's, Bob and Montana Hi, Bob, Oh, hey, DP.
Speaker 9: Everybody obviously knows that Montana is a football school, despite
Speaker 9: their men's basketball team last week playing a great first
Speaker 9: half against Wisconsin. But the real reason I'm calling is
Speaker 9: I'm curious. Is today a world record day for the
Speaker 9: DP show itself to the most number of callers? In
Speaker 9: which case of b I keep stats on this. Today
Speaker 9: couldn't be like your very own stat of the day
Speaker 9: for the most callers in history.
Speaker 3: All right, Well, thank you, Bob. It could be.
Speaker 2: I didn't think of it, but yeah, could be all right,
Speaker 2: so who is engaged first, Travis Kelcey or Bill Belichick? Todd,
Speaker 2: I'll start with you.
Speaker 19: I'm gonna say Travis Kelcey, Setan, Travis Kelty, Marv Travis Kelcey,
Speaker 19: Paul Belichick.
Speaker 6: He's all in.
Speaker 2: Feels like there would be more pressure from her with
Speaker 2: Belichick than Taylor Swift with Travis Kelcey, because that might
Speaker 2: be you know, it'll be a Sunday and she'll say, Hey,
Speaker 2: I got an idea.
Speaker 3: Why don't we go engagement ring shopping? Sure? Sure, that
Speaker 3: sounds great, gues Ton. I guess not publicly.
Speaker 19: Is her family ever weighed in on this. Belichick's girlfriend's
Speaker 19: family on what they think of this whole thing and
Speaker 19: if you want to have children and how.
Speaker 3: Does that all work.
Speaker 6: There's a lot of little side topics, you know.
Speaker 19: It's just we're other than like she needs to be
Speaker 19: c seed on all his email. That's one thing, but
Speaker 19: there's a lot of stuff there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, why don't you do some research before you?
Speaker 18: Gy know?
Speaker 19: Oh, I love my twenty something year old marrying a
Speaker 19: seventy something You're old. Perfect, It's exactly how I envisioned it.
Speaker 6: So bizarre.
Speaker 3: Good for him though, thank you time.
Speaker 2: Would you if you're single and you're seventy years old
Speaker 2: and all of a sudden, a twenty four year twenty
Speaker 2: four year old comes up to you on a plane
Speaker 2: and says, hey, can I sit here?
Speaker 3: Hey? Would you like to go out to dinner? And
Speaker 3: you're gonna say, what, what time? Where were we? Exactly? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't make fun of it if if you
Speaker 2: were presented with the same scenario, or someone.
Speaker 19: With a daughter on the other end, I would have
Speaker 19: a I don't care how fa famous he is and
Speaker 19: richie is. That's just I would not want that for
Speaker 19: my daughter, for sure.
Speaker 3: No, But for you, Yes, for me, I'm like, let's go, let's.
Speaker 6: Go around the world in my boat.
Speaker 11: Let's go.
Speaker 5: What's going now?
Speaker 3: So Bellichick asked your daughter out, then you're to say
Speaker 3: no to that?
Speaker 9: I would.
Speaker 19: I would be very uncomfortable with my daughter.
Speaker 3: She's a little bit younger than Bill Belichick's girlfriend.
Speaker 19: She's she's not gonna be twenty in a few weeks. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 19: but it's still in the ballpark of very odd and
Speaker 19: uncomfortable on the female parents side.
Speaker 3: Yes, Paul.
Speaker 6: Once I saw the Belichick girlfriend beach photos, nothing can
Speaker 6: surprise me with this relationship. Yeah nothing, Yeah, yeah, you
Speaker 6: sent those to me and I thought you'd been duped.
Speaker 3: Paulie goes, that's not real. Yes, I go no, it's real.
Speaker 3: It's real.

Speaker 2: up with his legs and she's I can fly, and
Speaker 2: I go wow.
Speaker 3: Yes, paul I.
Speaker 6: Can almost understand him approving the act of them at
Speaker 6: a private beach or their backyard, but allowing someone to
Speaker 6: film it is next.
Speaker 3: Level and then letting it go viral.
Speaker 6: Right wagging the dog.
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, that dude din't get married. I don't think
Speaker 3: so either. Well, no, he was married for like thirty years.
Speaker 3: He ain't get married. Okay, Pie of the Face.

Speaker 2: take Paulie up on that?
