1 00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:09,120 Speaker 1: The podcast called twenty five whist fucking Basketball and they 2 00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:12,640 Speaker 1: all wear a whist so yeahs do, But why didn't 3 00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 1: you expect it's a podcast called twenty five Whistles. What's 4 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 1: happening to everybody? Coach Bruce whatever will be on later, 5 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,639 Speaker 1: which made the Final four in two thousand and five, 6 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,159 Speaker 1: made the National Championship Game. It's weird they don't go 7 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 1: to that. They're always like, made the Final four, even 8 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: if they made the National Championship Game, like that's the 9 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:34,600 Speaker 1: final four, is not the end all or the championship 10 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 1: because when they talk about him, like hey, final four 11 00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,920 Speaker 1: appearance and no National Championship Game appearance. But it's weird 12 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 1: because that's the name that they put on like pizza boxes, 13 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 1: like final four, Final four, yes, and maybe tweet sixteen. 14 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: But it's a different level here, the championship game. It 15 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 1: should be. So anyway, he's gonna be on with us. 16 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 1: He won the Coach of the Year of two thousand 17 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: and five, and I gotta get he's four ninety seven 18 00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: in total wins as a head coach, so it's like, 19 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: you gotta do something. You gotta get three more coach somehow, 20 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: I don't know what you gotta do this two ka 21 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 1: count But no, I don't think so. Although shout out 22 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 1: to you, my friend, huh the Detroit, the Detroit Pistons. 23 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 1: Eddie's taking the Pistons. I think we're in ninety five. 24 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: Ninety five is our year, that one right now. We 25 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: started in ninety one or ninety two. And Eddie has 26 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 1: turned a bad Pistons team into a contenda. He got 27 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 1: Oliver Miller. Yeah, third in the MVP race right now 28 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: if you drafted him, Oh dude, he's awesome. He's like, 29 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: got a lot of rebounds right now. But here's the 30 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: thing I realized about my team is that I really 31 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: don't have a lot of depth in the center position. 32 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 1: So if I lose Oliver Miller, I've got lamb beer. 33 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: But then I'm in trouble with Power four with big guys. 34 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:42,759 Speaker 1: Why don't you try to draft pick and get another 35 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 1: big guy. That's what I was thinking about. I was 36 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: thinking about that last one I do. I'm loaded a draft. 37 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: I'm trying to get Kevin Garnett this next year. So 38 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: I've drafted every bad I've given. I have no I 39 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: have depth, but it's not near as good as it 40 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: used to be and I'm trying to stalk up on 41 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: picks for ninety six because Kevin Garnets come out of 42 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: the draft at of high school and I'm trying to 43 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: get him. Are you taking No, I'm trying to with no. No, 44 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: no, no no, he's not he's nine to no. Yeah. And 45 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: the problem not a problem, but my team's getting older. 46 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 1: So I took Utah and switched him. Now they're than 47 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 1: the Nashville Nibblers. They played in Nashville net. Yeah, but 48 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,360 Speaker 1: but his mascot's a gorilla, like a big fear teeth, 49 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: and so were the Nashville Nibblers. And so you could 50 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:18,959 Speaker 1: pick any team you wanted to start with from like 51 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: ninety one, and I took Utah because they had both Malon's, 52 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: but Karl Malone was the big one and John Stockton 53 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: were both in the nineties. Yeah, so they they're getting older. 54 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 1: I tried to Karl Malone, got a ton for him 55 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: because he's getting older. I'm about to have trade John 56 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 1: Stockton too, he's like thirty three. All those dudes are 57 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: getting older. Yeah, I played against Patrick Ewing and ninety five, 58 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: but he's still legit. But you can see him losing 59 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: a step again. Yeah, a little wrinkler. Okay, well so 60 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: that's what. Do you play basketball at all? Recreationally? Yeah? Yeah, 61 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 1: Why don't you play in our two K league? Oh 62 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: no, no no, no, no, no, no, no video games? No. 63 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,839 Speaker 1: I thought you're taking going actually play. I was talking 64 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: about really playing. But I'm saying I don't have a 65 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: PS five or Xbox right, but don't play it all 66 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 1: though either, and have no interest in it. Oh I do. Wait, 67 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: No playing video games? Oh my gosh, guys, who's on first? 68 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 1: Video games? No? No recreational being in our Madden League 69 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: or our NBA two K League. No, no, there's never 70 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: been a video Cool guys play video games now? Oh yeah? 71 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: The two games I play, but I love them, and 72 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: we played with our friends. We're gonna hit I mean, 73 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 1: we talk you. It's like fantasy football, but all year. 74 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 1: But it keeps you close to your buddies. Maybe NA 75 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: when that comes back. I love that they delay it 76 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: to year. I know, like like idiots. Anyway, Coach Webber 77 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: will be on. He's coached twenty three NBA players, over 78 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: one hundred players who have played professionally. I mean the 79 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: fact that he was an assistant at Purdue for eighteen years. 80 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 1: He mentions that like longest assistant tenure ever yea at 81 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: some point, although he did start really young and like 82 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: I don't know, you're seven or like, am I ever 83 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: not going to be an assistant? But it was it 84 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: for eighteen years and then had a crazy good career, 85 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: got something Illinois to the to the tournament, got Illinois 86 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: to the championship game, won some conference titles with Kansas State, 87 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: and he's coming on and we'll talk about basketball in 88 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: his life and career. But we didn't. The coolest thing, 89 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: and I mean this in the most complimentary way, is 90 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: that we would have like tracked down coach Webber to 91 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: get him. We didn't have to because the daughter's fan 92 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: and she reached out to us, who specifically me and Mike. 93 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: How did you get ahold of you guys? Instagram? Really? Yeah? 94 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 1: Dan on Instagram? And she said what just basically, Hey, 95 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: I'm a huge fan of the Bobby Bone Show. My 96 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: sisters and I we all listen, like we love the show, 97 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: and then we love the twenty five Whistles podcast. That's awesome. 98 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: My dad is Bruce Weber, and that's gotta love with that. Though, Hey, 99 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: my dad's Bruce Webber also, Yeah, we're like, we listened 100 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 1: every day and we'd love to have him on the 101 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: twenty five Whistles if you guys are interested. And yeah, 102 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 1: and then when they meet us and they talk with us, 103 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: they're already like in a good mood and they're not 104 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: worried about us because somebody from their family already vouches. 105 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: And I felt that way was Coach Webber two, like 106 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 1: he was just down to have fun immediately because his 107 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: daughter's like he didn't know who we were, but his 108 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: daughters thought we were cool. Maybe he said he listened 109 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,040 Speaker 1: a little bit since they told him, but I felt 110 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: like he listened and was like, not my thing, but 111 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: I'll do it from It's awesome, coach. What's going on. 112 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: I'm doing okay? How about you? We're doing good. It's 113 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: an honor to talk with you, especially now, I mean 114 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: we're getting into it. I was up last night these 115 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 1: games that start at nine o'clock because and now all 116 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: the games you gotta watch because everybody's fighting for either 117 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: seeds for the NCAA tournament or you know, I know 118 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: you work for a different conference, and I'm a most 119 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: of the fan, I'm an SEC guy, But you know, 120 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: we're all fighting some conference seeds. How does inside the 121 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: locker room? How does it change here we are early March, 122 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,240 Speaker 1: does it change? Is it palpable? Whenever it's like okay, 123 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,359 Speaker 1: now we got to play for a spot. Yeah, there's 124 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: no doubt. It means so much. You work all year 125 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: to get to this point, and uh it is. It 126 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: is really really important. I really think it comes down to, 127 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: you know, the coaches always want it, but do the 128 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 1: players want it? And how much do they want it? 129 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 1: And you know they have to. This is the time 130 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: of the year. The players take the accountability. The players 131 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: take the responsibility, and they're the ones that take the 132 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 1: thing to a new level and they have their shining 133 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,880 Speaker 1: moments and put them itself in position that you know, 134 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:18,040 Speaker 1: accomplish things and have special special memories. Were you ever like, guys, 135 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,720 Speaker 1: I can't really communicate with you how important this is. 136 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: And then they were like, yeah, coach, you were right, 137 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: Like we should have listened to you. We got the 138 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,600 Speaker 1: conference tournament and you were right, and we didn't really 139 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,840 Speaker 1: understand the gravity of the situation. Yeah, there's no doubt. 140 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 1: It's funny Like two weeks ago, my SIU Southern Illinois team. 141 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: We celebrated our Sweet sixteen twentieth anniversary of our sixteen run. 142 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 1: And you know, for Southern Illinois it's three times in 143 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: the history of their school from the Missouri Valley to 144 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: get into Sweet sixteen, So it's really really special. But 145 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: to be with those guys and to hear some of 146 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: them say, Coach, all your messages still haunt me, you know, 147 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: twenty years later, and things you told me, you know, 148 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: it's part of my life. Then you're right. And there's 149 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 1: guys that have had great success and there's other ones 150 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: that have struggled, just like you know, a normal life, 151 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: and it's funny to hear one of them wouldn't come back. 152 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: And he was one of our best players, and he said, Coach, 153 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: I'm not coming back until I'm ready and proud of 154 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: what I'm about as a person, you know, before i 155 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: come back, and I'll bring my family back then, And 156 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: because we wanted to fly him back, we wanted him back, 157 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 1: and you know, it was interesting to hear his perspective. 158 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: You know, when you look back at all the years 159 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 1: that you've coached young men, meaning you know you can 160 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 1: go back to even when you're a gat Western Kentucky, 161 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 1: which was like seventy nine eighty or so. Is there 162 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: a responsibility that you felt or when did it become 163 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: most prominent? My head football coach in high school? I 164 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: didn't have a dad, so he's a big part of 165 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: the discipline that I learned. And when you talk just 166 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: now about your guys that are like, we remember what 167 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: you said. Then I still hold a lot of that 168 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: stuff from my head football coach to this day because 169 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: I didn't have a strong male influence for most of 170 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: my life. When did that become real to you that 171 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: a lot of these kids lean on you for the 172 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: same thing. Well, exactly why I got into coach, and 173 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: to be honest, and uh, you know, I got a 174 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: you know, our family story and I don't want to 175 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: bore you, but my dad came over from Austria when 176 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: he was a young child. Um, didn't get the education. 177 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:20,119 Speaker 1: Uh you know, they spoke German and you know, and 178 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: and he really not never got to go to college. 179 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: And he just told all five of we had five kids, 180 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 1: didn't have much money, three three boys in one room, 181 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 1: and we switched off. We supped on the floor. Um 182 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: but it you know, he just said you're all going 183 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 1: to be teachers and coaches because there's no better way 184 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: in life than to help somebody and to be part 185 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: of their life. And and so we all were teachers 186 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: and coaches. And one of my brothers is in the 187 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: Wisconsin High School Hall of Fame once in Illinois High 188 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: School Hall of Fame. Sisters taught and coached and um. 189 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 1: And then I just I was the one who had 190 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: a whim. I was a high school coach. I wanted 191 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 1: to be in college coach. Just kind of a you know, 192 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 1: a crazy miracle story that I got involved. And then 193 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 1: you know, forty whatever it is, forty four years later, 194 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 1: you know, I had a lifetime of special memories. But 195 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: my whole thing when I started, and it's changed so much. 196 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: Obviously the money you talk about March Madness and the 197 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,680 Speaker 1: you know, the Final Four and all that stuff. But 198 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 1: I got into it because I was I wanted there 199 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: to be there to help young men and help them 200 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: learn and grow and and you know, be part of 201 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 1: their life because there are so many guys like you 202 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: talked about that don't have the father there and and 203 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,199 Speaker 1: so it's it's the part I loved. I was talking 204 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: with Tom Mizzo from Michigan State this morning. And you know, 205 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: I just said, he goes, what do you miss? And 206 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: I told him, every day you woke up, you had 207 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: to be there to help somebody. And because you know, 208 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 1: you're getting a call from your player or staff or 209 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: somebody in the community or whatever and that and that's 210 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: the part.

But it's not the same 213 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: when you're you know, you're coaching every day and you're 214 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 1: you know, you're meeting with them and helping them, helping 215 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:11,199 Speaker 1: them through crisises and um, you know, hopefully where it 216 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: means something in their life. And I go back, my guys, 217 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:17,319 Speaker 1: even forty years ago I was I was about there 218 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: same age.

I was one of the longest 287 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: assistants in the history of college basketball. And you know, 288 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: I was so young when I started and got that 289 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 1: that break, and and then to go to SIU and 290 00:13:56,360 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: take them to the Sweet sixteen and nca bids and 291 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,599 Speaker 1: you know, and then obviously Illinois going to the to 292 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,600 Speaker 1: the National Championship game and with that group and then 293 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:12,439 Speaker 1: case State helping them win two two Big twelve championships. 294 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 1: They hadn't done that in about forty some years. Sou 295 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: and an Elite eight runs, So it's just been a blast, great, 296 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: great memories. I'm just very very fortunate. When we think 297 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: of nerves, we often think about players being nervous before 298 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: a game or as the intensity of the game starts 299 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 1: to come down into the game. But what about coaches 300 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: like you're talking about, you know, getting to the Final four, 301 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: playing in the National Championship game. As the head coach, 302 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: are you also just paralyzed with nerves but you just 303 00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: don't want to show it, or as a coach, you're like, 304 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 1: I know what I'm doing, I don't actually have to 305 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 1: get out there. How is that before a game? Oh, 306 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: there's no doubt you're nervous and in the build up, 307 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: and that that's just part of it. I tried to 308 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: take a walk, tried to relax the you know, anything 309 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: you could do. You had your little routines and that, 310 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: but you know, you just but once you get to 311 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: the game, that ball goes up. You know it's your 312 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 1: That adrenaline's going and the mind's going and uh, you know, 313 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: you just It's funny because I watched the games in 314 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: the studio. Now we sit in the green room watch 315 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: games and then we come on at halftime and after 316 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 1: the game and all that. The games go so fast. 317 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: But when I was coaching, it was two hours. Was 318 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 1: like an eternity. It was like, oh my goodness, how 319 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: long is this game? And then you get to that 320 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 1: last minute and you lose those close games or it 321 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: goes your way, whatever, all the hides and loads, the emotions, Um, 322 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 1: you know it. It Uh, it drove your nuts, to 323 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 1: be honest. So it's but it was part of it. 324 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 1: You just loved it and you came back for it again. 325 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: It's it's like to me, it's like an addiction. I 326 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 1: guess that you know, being there and helping the you know, 327 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: helping the team and giving them advice and all that stuff. 328 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 1: And when they you win, you feel great. When you lose, 329 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: it's it's misery. When I get to some current basketball 330 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: questions in a second. But we need your advice because 331 00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: this is Eddie. Eddie's my best friend. Eddie is a 332 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: host on the show Oh Coach. He was coaching nine. 333 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 1: He almost got thrown out of a nine year old 334 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 1: basketball game. Coach, nine year old, it's my son's team, Coach. 335 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 1: The ref said, if you say chill, yes, well yes 336 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 1: go coach. Let me ask you a question, though, so 337 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: so I yelled. I never yell. This was probably our 338 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 1: tenth game. I never yelled at the refs, but they 339 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: weren't calling anything. So I got frustrated and I yelled 340 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 1: at him, and he blew the whistle and said one 341 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: more comment from you and you're out of here. And 342 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: I looked at my assistant and I said, do you 343 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: think I should get kicked out? Like we're down ten points, 344 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: we got about seven minutes left. Do you think this 345 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 1: will energize the boys if I purposely get kicked out? 346 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: Do you think that works? Coach? Oh, there's no doubt. 347 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: Because Matt Painter, who was the coach at Purdue and 348 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 1: they've been number one, and Matt Matt played for me 349 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 1: at Purdue. I helped recruit him and then he was 350 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: my assistant that he hasn't gotten a technical in eight years, 351 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 1: and his fans are actually like questioning, why aren't you 352 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 1: getting a technical? You know, and and you know, it's 353 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 1: just and you know, I think sometimes and we talked 354 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: about it. I was on with some they had official 355 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 1: from the Big ten the other day on the Zoom 356 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,400 Speaker 1: and we were just talking. I think sometimes a technical 357 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: can really you know, get the players. You feel like 358 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: they feel like you have their back. You take. The 359 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: other thing is it takes the attention away from the 360 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: players and maybe they can relax a little bit, so 361 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 1: you know, there, I think, but if you do it 362 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 1: too much. Now, the officials who we need in the game. 363 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: And you know, one of the biggest crisis in sports 364 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:34,840 Speaker 1: right now is getting umpires and getting and getting officials, 365 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 1: and because one young people, you know, I don't know 366 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:40,439 Speaker 1: if they don't see the value to get young guys 367 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:44,360 Speaker 1: in it, but also in young ladies, you know. But 368 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:49,160 Speaker 1: also they don't want to deal with people like you ready, 369 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,440 Speaker 1: it's just so they don't Why should I do this 370 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 1: for twelve bucks an hour? And then this guy's gonna 371 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:59,800 Speaker 1: yell at me, who doesn't know anything. Do you think 372 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: they're the Galvanis and let's go wind. Coach you ever 373 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 1: get time, I think there's a fine line. And I 374 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,360 Speaker 1: got technicals along the way. I didn't get a whole 375 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 1: lot my old bus coach Katie, he kind of that 376 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: was his whole thing. I mean, you grew up in 377 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 1: that year. I grew up, you know with Coach Knight 378 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 1: and Judd Heathcote and lud Olson and Coach Katy in 379 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: that early part of the Big Ten and technicals things 380 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,879 Speaker 1: they said the officials, it was, oh my goodness. And 381 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 1: now it's changed because the teav changed so much and 382 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 1: all the cameras and they're up clothes and uh, you know, 383 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,400 Speaker 1: I've watched coach Katy. He had to change. He had 384 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:36,560 Speaker 1: to change his the meter because he'd be the leadoff 385 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: of Sports Center. Uh, you know with his ramps and 386 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: raves and all that stuff. So you know, it's it's 387 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 1: just it's different. But I would tell you and again 388 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: there if you go back and watch film nine five 389 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 1: ninety six percent of time, the officials are probably correct. 390 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 1: Now it's the problem is that four percent, and if 391 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 1: it affects the game, uh, it makes it really tough 392 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 1: to deal with. And they're nine nine years old, think 393 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: all right, do be kind? Yes, question about Purdue coach 394 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 1: Indiana sweat Purdue. Does that say a bunch about Indiana 395 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,480 Speaker 1: or does it say that maybe produce a little overrated. Well, 396 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,919 Speaker 1: you know, I think one perdue overachieved. Or you know, 397 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 1: Matt is a great coach. Uh, not just because he 398 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: you know, he's my guy or whatever. He I mean, 399 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: he just he does a great job coaching us. He's 400 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 1: got guys that he's got players that want to be coachable. 401 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 1: I think as you get into the season, it's about matchups, 402 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 1: and you're gonna see this in the tournament. It's there's 403 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 1: so many teams in that you look in that SEC, 404 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: you look into Big ten, everybody's ten and eight or 405 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: nine and seven or whatever. There's so much balance, and 406 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna see the matchups are gonna be so important. 407 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: And also as the season goes on, people figure out 408 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: how to beat you, you know, whether it's the NFL 409 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: or whatever they find people copy. I was thinking of 410 00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: the I'm a Packer fan, so I grew up you know, Milwaukee. 411 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: I'm watching them play against Miami at Christmas Day and 412 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 1: the quarterback who had been unbelievable but the week before 413 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: somebody figured something about dropping the linebackers and had three interceptions. 414 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 1: Well the Packers do it and they intercept them a bunch. 415 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: So late in the season people find stuff that that 416 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,120 Speaker 1: changes games. You know, there's a formula. Matt Painter knows 417 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 1: that there's a formula to beat Perdue. And you know, 418 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,879 Speaker 1: if if you have the right system, if you have 419 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 1: the right players, and the kids are coachable, you can 420 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: beat them, There's no doubt. But if they get the 421 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,919 Speaker 1: right matchups, they can make a run. And they have 422 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: Zach Edie is like I was on with some radio guy. 423 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: He called them an alien, But I mean he is 424 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: a big, big guy, and he's got a great touch, 425 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 1: and he plays his butt off and he's coachable, and 426 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 1: so he gives them a total different dimension than anyone 427 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 1: else has. Self scouting and just an analogy here and 428 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 1: I'll end with this. So I'm always trying to figure 429 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,120 Speaker 1: out what I can do to better myself as doing 430 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 1: a radio show or doing a TV show or doing whatever. 431 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 1: So with the radio show, I would hire people to 432 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: tell me how to beat me that I have them 433 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 1: listened to me, and I would say, I'm going to 434 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 1: pay you I'd hire two people at the same time, 435 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,119 Speaker 1: and I want you to listen to all this tape. 436 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 1: And if you were building a show to beat me 437 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: find my weaknesses? What show would you build to beat me? 438 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,640 Speaker 1: And so that's what I would do. And they would 439 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 1: present these reports to me and they would say, well, 440 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:29,399 Speaker 1: this is how i'd beat you, this is what I 441 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 1: do to bring in and then I would try to 442 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: cover up those right, And then so I hired somebody 443 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: to teach me how to beat me, and then I 444 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: would try to beat whoever's trying to beat me. Now, 445 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 1: as a basketball coach, and obviously people are trying to 446 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:43,719 Speaker 1: figure out how to when matchups when games. Would you 447 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: ever do that to your own team, figure out how 448 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 1: to beat you and then try to plug those holes. Yes, 449 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: there's no doubt. People hire former coaches to come in 450 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:55,160 Speaker 1: scout their team, write reports how you would beat them, 451 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: and sometimes we'd show it to the players. Here's what 452 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,640 Speaker 1: the other people are saying about you, and this this 453 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: is or we would you know, when we have friends 454 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 1: in the business that we trust, like you know, and 455 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 1: I was at Illinois and Matt Painter just took over Purdue, 456 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 1: I mean, we would we could trade scouting reports and 457 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: saying what do you think about us once we're done playing? Honestly, 458 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 1: you're not going to do that in the middle of 459 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 1: the season. And yeah, so you bring people in. Um, 460 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:24,239 Speaker 1: we all have our people, we trust. You have that 461 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 1: little group of coaches that you grew up with and 462 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 1: you talk to them all the time. The late night 463 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 1: recruiting trips. You know they're up because they can't fall 464 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: asleep either, and you're talking to them. And um. But yeah, 465 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 1: you bring people in, bring them into practice, uh and 466 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: and and let them watch you and and and critique you. 467 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: It's hard. But I'll tell you this. My old boss, 468 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: coach Katy, who is up for the NA Smith Hall 469 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,639 Speaker 1: of Fame this this year again as a finalist. And 470 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 1: I don't understand why he's not in there, but because 471 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 1: he kind of did everything in the business from high 472 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 1: school to junior college to assistant that Arkansas to UH 473 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 1: when winning as coaches and produe history, the USA Basketball 474 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 1: gold medals assistant on the Olympics gold medal, NBA assistant, 475 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,959 Speaker 1: all that stuff. But coach Katie, who is a you know, 476 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: tough and grumpy and all this, he said that you 477 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 1: want to stay in the business. You gotta be flexible 478 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 1: and you gotta change. And we have a saying, if 479 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: nothing changes, nothing changes. And you know our players will 480 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,120 Speaker 1: call me that all the time and say coach randomly, 481 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,439 Speaker 1: Cohm say, if nothing changes, nothing changes. So you know 482 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 1: that's just part of life. You know, you gotta change, 483 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,400 Speaker 1: You gotta stay flexible, you gotta stay up with it 484 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,640 Speaker 1: the times, basketball changes, kids change, people change you.

I hope you have a great day. 510 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 1: Let's now go over and do the tittle tattle time. 511 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: You got a first golf question here after averaging under 512 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 1: three hundred thousand viewers for their first broadcast event, do 513 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:10,399 Speaker 1: you think there's a chance that the live golf tournament 514 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: will end up like the XFL and kind of weed 515 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 1: its way out. XFL didn't have basically all the money 516 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 1: in the whole world. Do you use right? There's the difference. 517 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 1: XFL failed because a timing failed a couple times, and 518 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 1: it's a business. But the CEO, that's got a board, 519 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 1: it's got stock prices, you know, all that matters with 520 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 1: the live tournament all none of that matters, So you 521 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 1: can it's not going to be the same in that regard. 522 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 1: And they got what we say, three hundred thousand yeah, 523 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: under yeah, but it was like CWM, right or CW network. 524 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 1: You're just not gonna get a lot of viewers in 525 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 1: that anyway, not yet at least, and it's brand new, 526 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 1: but mostly you're not gonna get a lot of viewers 527 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 1: on that anyway. I'm gonna imagine their highest rating like 528 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 1: a point six or something. Sure, so, and that's six 529 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 1: hundred thousand, seve hundred thousand people. So the story is 530 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:01,120 Speaker 1: Live got less than three hund thousand. That's somebody who's 531 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,439 Speaker 1: anti Live Go and look how this is doing. It's crappy. Well, 532 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 1: it's a new league, it's on a network that ballo 533 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 1: who even watches unless it's Sports live television. I don't 534 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,320 Speaker 1: know the w is and yeah with sports but we 535 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:14,880 Speaker 1: didn't even know. I'm gonna go. No, not a big 536 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 1: deal at all. The fact they have a partner, it's 537 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: great for them. I'm not a fan of the league, 538 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: but the more that I hear about everything else that 539 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 1: I don't even know is also affiliated with something. I'm like, 540 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:28,200 Speaker 1: I just don't know. Right, So it's not a big 541 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 1: deal and let them keep rocking. And the fact that 542 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 1: the players is gonna get to play the Majors. You 543 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,159 Speaker 1: saw that, Yeah, I'm cool with it because it's not 544 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 1: the PGA Tour. Yeah, that's The Majors are not the 545 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 1: PGA Tour, the PGA Tours, PGA Tour, and the Majors 546 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: are their own, like separate entity. They are, they're their 547 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,439 Speaker 1: own found Yeah. Oh, I didn't even know that. I 548 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:46,920 Speaker 1: never knew that. Yeah, it's not part of the tour. 549 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:50,119 Speaker 1: And that's why they get to play the PGA Championship 550 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,200 Speaker 1: is correct, but that's it. But yes, but the Masters 551 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:57,639 Speaker 1: isn't the US Open other Open? Yeah, I hate that. 552 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 1: It's a British Open, but open. You know, there was 553 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: like a big struggle. They're like, let's call it the Open, 554 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: let's call it. I don't know, how do you say though? That, No, 555 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,159 Speaker 1: not a big deal, and it's it's making the PGA 556 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 1: better already, And I do like that, all right. Next 557 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 1: question going to the NBA here from one to ten 558 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: ten being the most confident. What is your confidence level 559 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 1: in the Lakers making the playoffs after Lebron's injury the 560 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:32,200 Speaker 1: terrible timing because he ain't coming back. I don't know 561 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,919 Speaker 1: the latest today, but yesterday were saying weeks, and you 562 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,199 Speaker 1: know how long the season is until the playoffs, weeks. 563 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: They can't really afford to lose a bunch of games. 564 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: Where are they now? They were at eleven the last 565 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: time I looked, so it sometimes teams actually play better 566 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 1: for a minute when they lose a star, and the 567 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 1: Lakers have enough good players, but they have to win 568 00:27:56,480 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 1: a bunch more games than they should, meaning with a 569 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:02,199 Speaker 1: team they have now without Lebron, could they go over 570 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,640 Speaker 1: five hundred, yeah, from at the beginning of the season. 571 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,359 Speaker 1: Could they pop in the ten spot, yeah? Probably, But 572 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: they don't. They have a few finite amount of games 573 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,959 Speaker 1: to win way more than five hundred to climb up 574 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 1: and get in the ten the play in tournament, So 575 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: it's gonna be tough. I'm still betting on him most like, 576 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 1: because I already didn't have stick with it. Now you 577 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:21,639 Speaker 1: can catch but I'm gonna go with the Lakers make it. 578 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 1: Where are they now? They're at twelve. They're half game 579 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: out of eleven, one game out of ten, and their 580 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 1: schedule is a lot of playoff teams coming up. I 581 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 1: was looking at it. It's a lot of teams that 582 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 1: are good. It's doable. But Lebron's such a leader. I 583 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 1: just don't I don't know. And then you know they 584 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: hate him and they're like, let's go sho. That's true, 585 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 1: which you never know what they're really thinking. But if 586 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 1: Anthony Davis cannot get injured, he gets injured every two weeks, 587 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 1: it seems like. But Lebron's ankle under his foot or 588 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: whatever I saw on his Instagram, He's like, this sucks. 589 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 1: It does suck. I believe you really thought you could 590 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 1: and I believed he could come in and they could 591 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 1: actually make the playoffs. That's why I bet it all right. 592 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: Next question, looking and the longest postseason droughting major sports. 593 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 1: What do you think the sacrament of King's ceiling is? 594 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 1: The last I looked, the Kings were third or fourth 595 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: in the West, and I when I pulled up the 596 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: Kings last night to just look at just where they 597 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 1: were financially as well, who do you think makes the 598 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 1: most money on that King's team is yeah, good, good job, 599 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 1: guys twenty eight million bucks a year. Go ahead. After that, 600 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 1: I don't even know. Well, so the guys that you 601 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 1: would know from the team, like Sabonis, yeah just played 602 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 1: pretty well. Um he makes eighteen million a year, but 603 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 1: not not the most. Um you would also know probably 604 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: Harrison Barnes, he makes eighteen million a year. After that, 605 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 1: they sneakily get up on you with a few really 606 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 1: good players. Malik Monk, who went to Kentucky went to 607 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 1: the Lakers. Now with the Kings makes nine million bucks. 608 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 1: Delavadova is that where he's at now? Yeah? Wow, like sneakily, Yeah, 609 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 1: they're gonna make I think they can win a series. 610 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:03,959 Speaker 1: I think they can win a series. I don't think 611 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: they go win too. It's a team that I root 612 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: for and I look to see if they want every night. 613 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: Because the Kings are supposed to suck and they have 614 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: really really good guard play all right, so I'm gonna 615 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: go they can. Their ceiling is winning one series. You're 616 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 1: still watching a lot of League pass some I now 617 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 1: that college basketball games are happening all the time, and 618 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: then their games are getting bigger. I will always defer 619 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 1: to the college basketball games and so not as much now, 620 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: but I try to keep up with as much as possible. 621 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 1: It's just it's so much all the time, and if 622 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 1: you're not playing fantasy basketball, which I used to do, 623 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 1: it's hard to keep up with everybody. But I'm in 624 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 1: on the Lakers because it's bet on them. And then 625 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 1: when I'm ready for the Suns, let's see what happens. 626 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 1: They're not even the favorite, which Denver is the favorite 627 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,479 Speaker 1: in the West. The Denver is the favorite to win 628 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: the whole thing? And did that change between a lot 629 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: of people? I thought that changed recently. I saw Sons 630 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 1: like last week's Suns were in Really yeah, maybe I 631 00:30:58,080 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: just read too many articles where they're like, we picked 632 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 1: but between Denver and then East Boston, Milwaukee, Milwaukee and 633 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 1: then maybe Phoenix. You know, Golden State's interesting when they 634 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: get back and they're all healthy because it's the same 635 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 1: team as last year. But I do think the Kings 636 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 1: can win a series. All right? What else you got 637 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 1: going to the NFL here? Do you believe the Anthony 638 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 1: Richardson hype about being the next Josh Allen or no? 639 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: They can't say this now? And three weeks ago they 640 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 1: were saying he's so raw, he'll he won't be able 641 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 1: to perform year one or a year two. But as 642 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 1: the draft gets closer, all these stories, these narratives come 643 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: out because they're trying to affect people's drafting upward down. 644 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 1: So no, but also they're like Levies is the next 645 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: Josh Allen. Anybody that just lowers their shoulder occasionally gets 646 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:44,719 Speaker 1: called the next Josh Allen. Right, Like, if you can 647 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 1: run from more than a quarterback sneak and you're large 648 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 1: in stature, you're Josh Allen. And so no, I think 649 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: it'd be best for him to go to a team 650 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 1: that later in the draft actually has a quarterback and 651 00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:59,160 Speaker 1: he can sit for a couple of years. I mean 652 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 1: imagine or like the Raiders draft him, but they don't 653 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 1: play him right, they're able to get Aaron Rodgers, or 654 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: they're able to get Jimmy Garoppolo and he could come 655 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 1: in for two years. Imagine if Anthony Richard under Aaron Rodgers, 656 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 1: when you know he's gonna be there two years wherever 657 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 1: he goes two maybe three if he doesn't retire, that's 658 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 1: the perfect situation. That's the way to do it. It 659 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 1: was he behind. Think about it. He was hurt, he's 660 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 1: hurt for a while. He's like Smith. That's right. One 661 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: of the most the craziest comebacks ever. Yeah yeah, okay, 662 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: next one. If you were the Dolphins, how hesitant would 663 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 1: you be to pick up two is fifty year option. 664 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. You can't cut bait not now. Yes, a 665 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: lot of concussions. Even if he never plays again, you can't. 666 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 1: Quarterbacks are so hard to get, even medium skill quarterbacks 667 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 1: are so hard to get. You can't cut the fifth year. 668 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 1: Now you've already got him. He's part of the team, 669 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 1: he's part of the culture. I don't think for any 670 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 1: reason whatsoever do you just say, nah, we're good. You've 671 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 1: invested so much in him. Worst cases he never plays, 672 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: he comes and he signs the fifth year, or you 673 00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 1: make him sign the fifth year and he doesn't play. 674 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 1: That's worst case, except for worser case, when you don't 675 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 1: sign it he goes play. Somebody else wants a freaking championship. 676 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 1: That would be miserable. So yes, I think you do. 677 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: What do you think they shouldn't all from the fifth year? No, 678 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 1: who else are gonna get that? You have to have 679 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: another quarterback? Come in. Yeah, and then the whole thing 680 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: is too. You look at Daniel Jones this here. Now 681 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 1: he's looking to make thirty five to forty five million. 682 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: You don't want to pay that. You'll pay twenty three 683 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 1: million on that fifth year instead of that thirty five 684 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 1: to forty five. So, well, you wouldn't sign him to 685 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 1: a new deal exactly. You just have that option, right, 686 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 1: so you you have the luxury. And then I'm sure 687 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 1: that they can put something in his contract if you're 688 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 1: unable to play because it concussions, injuries or whatever. We 689 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 1: negate the whole thing. Well wouldn't, but still you can't. 690 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 1: It wouldn't be Also, the fifth year is not a 691 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 1: new contract. It's an extension of a contract. So you're 692 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: not really gonna put a bunch of new terms in there. 693 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 1: As much as it is you're going to sign the 694 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 1: fifth year of this because we have the option to 695 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: keep your year. I would sign him in a heartbeat, 696 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 1: even if he never plays. You just don't want to 697 00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 1: go on somewhere else. And it's just so hard to 698 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: get quarterbacks unless you have a quarterback ready to go, 699 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 1: unless you have a car, even a Jimmy Gee. Yeah, 700 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 1: but for Matt Ryan. Now I'm gonna keep them. I'm 701 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: gonna keep them. What else? Last one? In honor of 702 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 1: the combine? What do you think you could run a 703 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:20,399 Speaker 1: forty and right now? Oh gosh, what's like the average? Well, 704 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 1: let me pick yours, Eddie, I don't even know like 705 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 1: where I think you'd probably run a five five or 706 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: a five six, right. Yeah? You see us doing sprints. Yeah, 707 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:33,879 Speaker 1: and that's our sprints up, not forties. They're like what twenties. Yeah, 708 00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 1: they're just weren't getting loose. So we do a fifty 709 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 1: percent seventy five percent sprint and then four eighty nine 710 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,360 Speaker 1: hundred or about twenty twenty five yards. Yeah, yeah, I 711 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:45,359 Speaker 1: would say you're about a five five five six. Guy, 712 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 1: take it, man, But you don't know what that's compared to. Yeah, 713 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: but I like it. It sounds good. I do a 714 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 1: forty and five five. I love how that's that's like 715 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 1: a really big lineman. Oh really yeah, that's not fastening Dan, Well, no, 716 00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:58,960 Speaker 1: but you're not fast another am. I we're men in 717 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 1: our forties that are athletes and hey, but you know 718 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,680 Speaker 1: what though, when we do the springts, we sound fast. 719 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,320 Speaker 1: I love doing that running, dude. I don't grund. I 720 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:12,200 Speaker 1: like this, you do you do that? That's me coming off? 721 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,879 Speaker 1: The last is that you flying by? No, I don't 722 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 1: know that's what he takes off. I'm like, oh yeah, 723 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:20,640 Speaker 1: when he flies by, it sounds like this. Okay, that 724 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 1: was good. I'm gonna put Eddie get a five six five. 725 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 1: You said I'm gonna put Kevin in like a five one. 726 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 1: I gotta get under five. No way, you can't get 727 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:34,839 Speaker 1: a four nine not now. You're too old. Yes, you're 728 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 1: too old. Yes, you want to fly. You want to wager? 729 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 1: You want to fly on the street. Point, we can 730 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,799 Speaker 1: do it, but we need to wager now, so you 731 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 1: don't go test yourself and then come for the bed. 732 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 1: Would it have to be on the street like in 733 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 1: regular shoes?

Nah, there's a little chance because he's 763 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:11,920 Speaker 1: still kind of athletic looking. You had him at five one. Yeah, 764 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 1: who do watch you nail it? We time him it's 765 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 1: exactly five one. Do you think I can out run Kevin?

I've seen you run, I'm 769 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 1: not seeing Kevin run. Kevin's definitely bigger, like muscular, but 770 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 1: I'm wiry and I feel like i'd have a shot 771 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 1: at beating you in a sprint. I don't think I 772 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:36,480 Speaker 1: could beat five. It's gonna Yeah, it'll be tough if 773 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,280 Speaker 1: I could get If it was like longer, it's easier 774 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 1: for me with the longer strides. I'm not very quick, 775 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 1: but I know quick. We're not doing a four hundred 776 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 1: I know. I know he's like, oh, not a marathon. 777 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:49,000 Speaker 1: Oh okay, maybe it's just my I don't know. We're 778 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:59,600 Speaker 1: we're on for the below, all right, what's up? The 779 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,160 Speaker 1: can Anders are obviously selling the team right and now 780 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 1: there's a big drama with the team obviously because Dan 781 00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:06,560 Speaker 1: Snyder is not gonna go down without drama. And did 782 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 1: they get rid of wins? Well they did they Yeah 783 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: they should did that picture the letterman jacket popped up 784 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 1: on my feet and I was like, why is this 785 00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 1: popping up again? It was like Carson Wentz and the 786 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 1: commanders are part of the ways. The federal probe and 787 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,720 Speaker 1: to Snyder and the commanders has reportedly focused it's attention 788 00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:22,279 Speaker 1: on a fifty five million dollars alone that was taking 789 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 1: out sixteen months prior to the team's financial report, and 790 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:30,080 Speaker 1: it's just it looks like financial it's not a crime. 791 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a crime, but it looks 792 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 1: like something somebody's doing because they know they can do 793 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: it before they found out what they were really doing. Like, well, 794 00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:39,840 Speaker 1: I can still get this money. I'm gonna try to 795 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 1: get it because once this all comes out, I ain't 796 00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,279 Speaker 1: gonna be able to get it, or I'm gonna get 797 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:44,799 Speaker 1: it and stick it to whomever because they're gonna make 798 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 1: me sell the team and they're also gonna have to 799 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 1: pay this money back that I'm getting that took out 800 00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 1: on the team's name. But I don't know, Dan Snyders. 801 00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,239 Speaker 1: She's all it's that's what it is. It's always something. 802 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 1: I don't want him out. I don't want I don't 803 00:38:56,440 --> 00:39:00,320 Speaker 1: want him out like crazy. Um So Coleman with you, 804 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,879 Speaker 1: ab Coach Andy Kennedy, We'll come back into a little 805 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 1: more as well. Coach Kennedy, I want to get started 806 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 1: a little bit with your playing career. Seventeen hundred and 807 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,359 Speaker 1: eighty seven points. Be honest with me, who had more 808 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 1: a game in college? You and Jelly Walker different types 809 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:17,720 Speaker 1: of games. But I didn't have that wiggle for that bounce. 810 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 1: I think I think Jelly is one I have, if 811 00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 1: not deep best player most definitely under six feet tall 812 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,400 Speaker 1: and college basketball. His ability to go make plays off 813 00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 1: the dribble, great space, he can shoot it deep deep deep, 814 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:30,799 Speaker 1: off the bouts. He can get in the mid range. 815 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:32,440 Speaker 1: He's gotten really good at a fishing and get into 816 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:34,359 Speaker 1: the free throw line. I was a little different six 817 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 1: foot seven. I could play over the top. I tore 818 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:37,799 Speaker 1: my ACL Back in the old days when you had 819 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 1: to sit out. Remember those days. You're probably known as 820 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:41,919 Speaker 1: young as you are, but back in the old days 821 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:43,880 Speaker 1: when you transfer it, I had to sit out and 822 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 1: in my sitout year ended up tearing my ACL. So 823 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 1: I played my whole career here after coming off a 824 00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:54,400 Speaker 1: torn ACL. I could really shoot it in My size 825 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: helped me play over the top of some people. Right, 826 00:39:57,239 --> 00:39:59,280 Speaker 1: Take me through a little bit of your pro career. 827 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 1: What you learned playing ball overseas? My first year when 828 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 1: when I was coming out, it was the first year 829 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 1: that the draft got reduced from three rounds to two rounds. 830 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 1: Back in the day, it used to be like six 831 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:11,520 Speaker 1: and then they cut it to four, then they cut 832 00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 1: it to three. My year out was the first year 833 00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:17,399 Speaker 1: they cut into two. Undrafted had an opportunity. I played 834 00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 1: the Chicago pre draft camp, played the Portsmouth PI team, 835 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,479 Speaker 1: then had opportunities to go and be with different teams. 836 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:26,799 Speaker 1: I was in Charlotte Borns briefly. No guaranteed money, and 837 00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 1: even if it was guaranteed back in those days, it 838 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 1: won't a whole lot of money. Had the opportunity to 839 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:33,960 Speaker 1: go overseas, bounced around a number of different places owed 840 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 1: money and about seven different countries if you know it, 841 00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 1: and learners on there. This was pre bibo where it 842 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:43,440 Speaker 1: was like legit. You know they would they would they 843 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:45,680 Speaker 1: would pay you when they wanted to pay you, but 844 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,120 Speaker 1: I had a good experience, ended up tearing my right 845 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:51,880 Speaker 1: a cl I had. I've had six total d operations, 846 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:53,840 Speaker 1: but my last one, as I told my right a 847 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:55,759 Speaker 1: cl by playing in the Summer League in Puerto Rico, 848 00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,399 Speaker 1: and that I lost the step. I could no longer 849 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 1: put up a board to lose. So that is when 850 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 1: I secuated into coaching. Okay, fast forwarding a little bit 851 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: to you at Cincinnati, what was it like being thrown 852 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 1: in getting your first head coaching gate granted with the 853 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 1: interim status, you're being thrown into the Big East. It's 854 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 1: your first head coach. Was really surreal. I remember this. 855 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:23,839 Speaker 1: It was the first year that Cincinnati, along with Louisville, Marquette, 856 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:25,799 Speaker 1: de Paul, a number of other people were leaving and 857 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,400 Speaker 1: going into the Big East. That league was a really 858 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,160 Speaker 1: good league. That was the old Conference. I was saying, 859 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 1: there were six bids out of that league. People can't 860 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,520 Speaker 1: remember that there were six bids out of that league. 861 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 1: In the final year of being together, we go to 862 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:43,200 Speaker 1: the Big East. So we go to the Big East preseason, 863 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:46,040 Speaker 1: chip off the media Galla and they brought all the 864 00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 1: teams together. We actually had a team picture. So here 865 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 1: I am. I have never coached in any level. I've 866 00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:53,839 Speaker 1: never called the time out at any level. And I'm 867 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:57,759 Speaker 1: standing next to Rick Patino and Jay Wright and Jim 868 00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 1: Calhoun and Jim bay Hum John blin that West Virginia 869 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:02,400 Speaker 1: tim creen with them. Mart. I mean, it was like 870 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 1: it was like somebody self imposed my picture and everything 871 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 1: like some kind of gag. Right, So it was. It 872 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:09,920 Speaker 1: was really a crazy year. I got it. I got 873 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:14,799 Speaker 1: great love for Cincinnati, great basketball town, and they really 874 00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 1: supported us when I was there with the Hudson They 875 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:19,800 Speaker 1: ended up supporting me through my one year there. Funny 876 00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:21,880 Speaker 1: how things work out, you know, one day I'm coaching 877 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 1: Cincinnati and twenty four hours later, I'm the head coach 878 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:28,000 Speaker 1: at Old Miss. Right. Take me through your first NCAA 879 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 1: Tournament bid. What did it mean to you? Twenty thirteen 880 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:32,799 Speaker 1: been the first time in eleven years the Old Myths 881 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 1: had been to the NCAA tournaments. What did that mean 882 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,000 Speaker 1: for you? The first time getting over the hump two? Well, 883 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 1: thankfully we didn't have to wait to see whether or 884 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 1: not we made it in. We captured the automatic bid 885 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 1: by by beating UH Florida in the SEC championship game, 886 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:48,160 Speaker 1: so we knew coming in we were gonna be in 887 00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:51,719 Speaker 1: the tournament. We didn't know against who or where. We 888 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,359 Speaker 1: ended up playing Bull Ryan in the Wisconsin Badgers having 889 00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:56,719 Speaker 1: and we beat them and had an opportunity. We're one 890 00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:59,400 Speaker 1: defensive stop away from making a run in the sweet sixteen. 891 00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 1: So I had a great twelve years there. You gotta 892 00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 1: remember I grew up in Mississippi, so coaching the flagship 893 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:10,400 Speaker 1: university in your home state for twelve years pretty ideal. 894 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 1: What does it mean to you to be that program's 895 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 1: all time leader in wins at a Power six program 896 00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:18,759 Speaker 1: in that sec what's that mistake that it proves that 897 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:20,319 Speaker 1: I was there a long time? You know, I was 898 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:22,359 Speaker 1: able to stay ahead of the curve. You know there 899 00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:24,719 Speaker 1: were many times where they had handed me to the 900 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,040 Speaker 1: blindfold and I had the cigarette and I was walking 901 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,280 Speaker 1: the plank. They just didn't quite light it until twenty 902 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:31,719 Speaker 1: and eighteen. But I had. I had a great run there. 903 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:33,839 Speaker 1: A lot of great memories. Take me through what it 904 00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 1: was like being named the head coach of the Alumna 905 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 1: wild World. You know, this was so weird. I was 906 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,439 Speaker 1: at Old miss from post six to eighteen. My deal 907 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:44,759 Speaker 1: ended in eighteen. I've got two daughters. One of them 908 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,320 Speaker 1: was a was a junior at Stamford University, which was 909 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 1: a private school year in town, and my youngest when 910 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:53,800 Speaker 1: we moved to Oxford, she was going into the first grade. Again, 911 00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: my deal ends in March. In May, she graduated high school. 912 00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 1: So I never had to move, which was in a 913 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:00,800 Speaker 1: tremendous blessing, comping my biggest accomplice as a coach. I 914 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:04,319 Speaker 1: didn't have to uproot my children. Yeah. And so when 915 00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:06,640 Speaker 1: when it ended, we could have moved anywhere in the country, 916 00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:08,239 Speaker 1: and we said, well, I knew at the time I 917 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:10,000 Speaker 1: was going to do TV. I wasn't looking to get 918 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 1: right back into coach and I need to exhale a 919 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:13,920 Speaker 1: little bit. Uh. And we thought about a number of 920 00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:16,319 Speaker 1: different places, but Birmingham was always home away from home. 921 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:19,200 Speaker 1: I graduated here and my wife graduated from here. Our 922 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 1: daughter was at Sandford, our youngest was going to be 923 00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 1: at Auburn. So I just made a lot of sense logistically. 924 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 1: I had no idea or vision of one day becoming 925 00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 1: the coach here. Two years later, COVID strikes very bizarre time, 926 00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 1: and on top of that, I was aforded the opportunity 927 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:37,359 Speaker 1: to come home. How do you before you guys win 928 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,480 Speaker 1: that tournament final and punch your bit to the dance. 929 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:43,800 Speaker 1: Last year, how do you calmb your guys down following 930 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:47,439 Speaker 1: a triple triple overtime semifinal win over Middle Tennessee State 931 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 1: to then focus on the task at hand of winning 932 00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:52,560 Speaker 1: the next day? Well, that's just what the game dictates. 933 00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:54,600 Speaker 1: You know. You just have to you have to get 934 00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 1: to the next one. And our guys were really excited. 935 00:44:57,239 --> 00:44:59,319 Speaker 1: We're really excited about Frisco this year. We've got three 936 00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 1: more games that we need to We need to finish 937 00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:04,319 Speaker 1: up strong in order to put ourselves in buy territory. 938 00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:08,319 Speaker 1: But last year going into Frisco, no disrespect to North 939 00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:10,879 Speaker 1: Texas who won the regular season and won it convincingly, 940 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:12,920 Speaker 1: we felt like we were the best team and we 941 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 1: used the tournament to go and to prove just that. 942 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:18,600 Speaker 1: And I know our guys have similar sentiments this year. 943 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,840 Speaker 1: What was that feeling like, punction your ticket to the 944 00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:24,000 Speaker 1: dance here for your on the line. Oh, it's great. 945 00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:26,239 Speaker 1: You know, it's the first time since fifteen that you 946 00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:29,360 Speaker 1: had been to the tournament. A great pride in this program. 947 00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:31,799 Speaker 1: What gene Bartow did I had the opportunity to play 948 00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:34,280 Speaker 1: and learn from the founding father if you had the athletics. 949 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 1: And I have seen this building one of it's on fire, 950 00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:40,680 Speaker 1: both as a player and as an assistant coach when 951 00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:43,239 Speaker 1: I was here working from Jean's Sun Murray in the 952 00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:45,680 Speaker 1: mid nineties. So I know what this thing is capable of. 953 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:48,000 Speaker 1: I know this is a great basketball community. We've just 954 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:50,080 Speaker 1: got to get them a product to be excited about it, 955 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:52,319 Speaker 1: and we've got to produce between the lines. We've been 956 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,720 Speaker 1: pretty good twenty two and seven, our first year, twenty 957 00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 1: seven and eight, last year, sitting at twenty eight, twenty 958 00:45:57,560 --> 00:46:00,080 Speaker 1: and eight as we speak, with three to go to 959 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:02,440 Speaker 1: to get to the tournament. You bring in the Brewers 960 00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:05,399 Speaker 1: this offseason out of East Tennessee State. You bring in 961 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:09,160 Speaker 1: a couple of SEC transfers also the year prior bringing 962 00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:11,960 Speaker 1: in kJ bringing in Jelly out of the transfer portal. 963 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,480 Speaker 1: How have you been able to utilize it so successfully? A? 964 00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,080 Speaker 1: And then B? How do you get guys to gel 965 00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:21,080 Speaker 1: together that quickly? Well, you know we I'm glad you 966 00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:23,279 Speaker 1: didn't talk about all the ones I missed on, which 967 00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:25,200 Speaker 1: is certainly there's going to be a hit and miss 968 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 1: in this and it's got to make a lot of sense. 969 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 1: I have really learned over the two years that we 970 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:32,960 Speaker 1: have really thrusted ourselves into the portal. I've learned a 971 00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 1: lot along the way and some things that I'm going 972 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:38,279 Speaker 1: to do different moving forward. When you bring in kids, 973 00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:42,400 Speaker 1: most especially older kids that have been to multiple schools, 974 00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 1: it takes a little longer than you might imagined to 975 00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:48,480 Speaker 1: get everybody to understand this is what is expected here, 976 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 1: this is our path to success, and this is your 977 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 1: role in that path, and you're gonna go through some 978 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: up to nowls. We've certainly done that this year. We've 979 00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:58,800 Speaker 1: lost five conference games by a total of eleven points, 980 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:01,560 Speaker 1: three of which in overtime. So you know, we're sitting 981 00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:03,359 Speaker 1: here twenty and eight, which a lot of people would 982 00:47:03,400 --> 00:47:05,960 Speaker 1: would take today, but we felt like we still left 983 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,760 Speaker 1: a lot of brutal in the bund right to that point, Coach, 984 00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,279 Speaker 1: take me through a little bit in Jaanuary where you 985 00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:14,040 Speaker 1: go through that lull, lose I think five or six, 986 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,880 Speaker 1: four of those by one possession games. How do you 987 00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:19,239 Speaker 1: rally the troops to have done what you've done now 988 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:22,200 Speaker 1: in one seven of your last day? Well, you've got 989 00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,320 Speaker 1: to learn from it. I'm not one to believe that 990 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 1: you need a loss to get your attention, but sometimes, 991 00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:30,279 Speaker 1: as kids, maybe you do. We were going through a 992 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:32,839 Speaker 1: lot at that time. We were losing close games, we 993 00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:35,560 Speaker 1: were being inconsistent. One night it was our defense. The 994 00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:38,279 Speaker 1: next night we have twenty two turnovers. The next night 995 00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:40,000 Speaker 1: we can't make a shot. It was just a lot 996 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:42,359 Speaker 1: of different things. And then Jelly goes down. You know, 997 00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 1: as we were losing these close games. As a coach, 998 00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:48,080 Speaker 1: you certainly know you have to make adjustments, but at 999 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:51,040 Speaker 1: the same time you're losing by one two points, so 1000 00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,280 Speaker 1: obviously not everything is broken. You just need to make adjustments. 1001 00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:58,719 Speaker 1: Then Jelly goes down against Western Kentucky. So everything changed because, 1002 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:00,920 Speaker 1: as you well know, the seventh or eighth in the 1003 00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:04,440 Speaker 1: country and usage here, so we put him in a 1004 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:06,879 Speaker 1: position where a lot of things are designed around him. 1005 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,319 Speaker 1: He missed five games, and then that five we had 1006 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:12,000 Speaker 1: to dramatically shift what we were doing on both ends 1007 00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:13,719 Speaker 1: of the floor. But as a result of that, it 1008 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 1: allowed guys like Tide Brewer, like Hella Brewer to expand 1009 00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:18,960 Speaker 1: their roles and they really flourished in that. So now 1010 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:22,120 Speaker 1: that We're back home. Jelly's back home, our team's back hole. 1011 00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:23,840 Speaker 1: I hope we're ready to play our best basketball this 1012 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:27,960 Speaker 1: season right for of that question, are you guys playing 1013 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:31,480 Speaker 1: your best basketball you feel right now leading into Frisco. Oh, 1014 00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:33,200 Speaker 1: there's still a lot of things that we need to 1015 00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:36,719 Speaker 1: improve upon, ball security, sense of urgency. But it is now. 1016 00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:40,080 Speaker 1: We've got two weeks left in the regular season prior 1017 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:43,680 Speaker 1: to March Madness. Our hope our guys have the vision 1018 00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:46,200 Speaker 1: in the awareness now it's an I were never What 1019 00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:48,319 Speaker 1: is the X factor that you all need to do 1020 00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:51,759 Speaker 1: this exceptionally well in order to win three straight in 1021 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:54,279 Speaker 1: the Frisco. For us, it's just about being the best 1022 00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 1: version of self. We have a formula that we know 1023 00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:02,600 Speaker 1: how we can be successful. We've got to be Thank 1024 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:04,680 Speaker 1: you so much for your time today, Coach Kennedy really 1025 00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:07,160 Speaker 1: appreciate thank you. So we're recording this part at a 1026 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:09,719 Speaker 1: slightly different time, and I'm gonna talking about the whole 1027 00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:12,400 Speaker 1: rich eyes and experience. But I was I don't know 1028 00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:13,680 Speaker 1: where I was, if I was there, if I was 1029 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:16,560 Speaker 1: still in the hotel tel Or and I see Eddie 1030 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:18,880 Speaker 1: it's playing golf. It popped up all like that. I 1031 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:21,000 Speaker 1: hate that, like the fact that I feel like it's 1032 00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:22,800 Speaker 1: a Stoker app in a weird way, you know what 1033 00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:26,600 Speaker 1: I mean. Like I'm living my life bro like, and 1034 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:29,520 Speaker 1: you're like always like playing golf. Huh so jealous? Well, 1035 00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:31,480 Speaker 1: I can pa playing golf, and I understand I would 1036 00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:33,080 Speaker 1: be playing golf too if I were you. But it's 1037 00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:35,919 Speaker 1: like Eddie is playing golf. Where'd you play? I've played 1038 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:39,040 Speaker 1: at a Muni municipal course with Kevin. Kevin and I 1039 00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:43,759 Speaker 1: played together. Yeah, huh well how'd you shoot? How did 1040 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:45,840 Speaker 1: every I do? We did all right? I mean, you know, 1041 00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:49,399 Speaker 1: it's like what my third round back like playing back? 1042 00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:51,000 Speaker 1: You're not coming off an a C. L Entry buddy, 1043 00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:53,440 Speaker 1: you know. Season played for a few weeks, pretty good. 1044 00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:56,200 Speaker 1: I shot eighty eight. Not bad? Okay, Kevin Hawd you played? 1045 00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:58,839 Speaker 1: You play with Eddie's old clubs again until you get 1046 00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:01,279 Speaker 1: new ones. Yeah, I I did. I did so well 1047 00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:03,319 Speaker 1: that I didn't even keep score because I just didn't 1048 00:50:03,320 --> 00:50:04,799 Speaker 1: even want to beat them that bad. You know. It's 1049 00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:06,160 Speaker 1: one of those kind of days. It was great. I 1050 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,080 Speaker 1: felt that I texted Eddie and I was like, hey, well, 1051 00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:10,880 Speaker 1: what's up playing golf? But he goes lea me alone. 1052 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:14,000 Speaker 1: I'm listening to a podcast, a very important podcast. Yeah, 1053 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:15,399 Speaker 1: it was rich. And then I found out he loves 1054 00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:16,960 Speaker 1: me as Chewy in his phone, which I think he 1055 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:19,080 Speaker 1: may have told me that once but I didn't remember. 1056 00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 1: And what does Chewy mean? Is that just a name? 1057 00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:24,680 Speaker 1: It's just a random name because in case I lose 1058 00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:27,319 Speaker 1: my phone or gets stolen, they don't have like, oh, 1059 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:29,239 Speaker 1: look it's Bobby Bones number. You know what I mean. 1060 00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:31,759 Speaker 1: I don't have famous people's numbers on my phone, so 1061 00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:34,160 Speaker 1: that's the one that they would be like, Wow, let's 1062 00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:37,680 Speaker 1: like FaceTime Bobby Bones. It's crazy. But then we know 1063 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:39,200 Speaker 1: who stole your phone. And I wish they would do 1064 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:40,400 Speaker 1: that so then we can catch them, because that's a 1065 00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:42,880 Speaker 1: screenshadow back, you know. Yeah, you should just put my 1066 00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:44,920 Speaker 1: name in his FaceTime Bobby Bones. Whenever you can see this, 1067 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 1: he's ready for you. Hey, you that way? You know 1068 00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:50,600 Speaker 1: what's stupid about Chewy though? It's it's the name is Chewy, 1069 00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:52,839 Speaker 1: but the face on it is you. And I don't 1070 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:54,799 Speaker 1: know how that happened. I guess it's like something that 1071 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:58,239 Speaker 1: you send to your contacts, like to use. Oh, it 1072 00:50:58,360 --> 00:50:59,920 Speaker 1: probably says do you want to use the picture of 1073 00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:02,759 Speaker 1: so it says chewy, but it's your face that makes 1074 00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:07,359 Speaker 1: no sense. Well, we're in Los Angeles today. I'm gonna 1075 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:09,480 Speaker 1: tell you last night we flew for four and a 1076 00:51:09,480 --> 00:51:12,440 Speaker 1: half hours as exhausted because I worked all day. I 1077 00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:14,520 Speaker 1: knew I had to do the show this morning, that 1078 00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:16,959 Speaker 1: in the eyes and show, and the internet was out 1079 00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 1: and I couldn't believe it for four and a half hours. 1080 00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:20,439 Speaker 1: And I know there are other problems in the world, 1081 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:22,560 Speaker 1: not many, not many as bad as that. Really, I mean, 1082 00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:24,120 Speaker 1: look at the world and all the problems, sure, very 1083 00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:25,480 Speaker 1: few are bigger than me, not hav any for four 1084 00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:28,000 Speaker 1: a half hours, let's be honest. But the fact that 1085 00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:30,080 Speaker 1: al Gore was on my plane too, so you aren't 1086 00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:34,279 Speaker 1: jokilarious to me. No, I have pictures of it. That's crazy. 1087 00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:37,120 Speaker 1: He stood up and he was like, he's so that's 1088 00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:40,879 Speaker 1: we're all getting older. I think Fleetwood Mac said said 1089 00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:42,960 Speaker 1: it best, or maybe not just maybe that was a 1090 00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:45,520 Speaker 1: Fleetwood Mac which was she solo the or was that 1091 00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:52,280 Speaker 1: just Fleetwood Mac sing it times get old, children get old, 1092 00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:57,080 Speaker 1: not get older too. Yeah, as Fleetwood that's makes we 1093 00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:00,839 Speaker 1: want to play it. It is okay, So oh, he 1094 00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:03,360 Speaker 1: looked really old. All that to say, looked really old, 1095 00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:06,360 Speaker 1: but he is old, he is. But Algore was on 1096 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 1: the plane. Algore was on the flight. Derek Cuff was 1097 00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:12,440 Speaker 1: on the flight. And first of all, I walked into 1098 00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:15,520 Speaker 1: the airport and I see this really cool red jacket. 1099 00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:16,799 Speaker 1: That's what it sticks out to me. I love red, 1100 00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:19,359 Speaker 1: I love read everything. The damnit jacket's cool. This girl 1101 00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:20,600 Speaker 1: was wearing his red jacket, and I was like, man, 1102 00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:23,000 Speaker 1: I should I take a picture of that jacket because 1103 00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:24,399 Speaker 1: I would wear it. And I didn't take a picture 1104 00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:25,960 Speaker 1: the jacket because I didn't want to. Kume was creepy 1105 00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:28,000 Speaker 1: and ended up being when I walked up closer to them. 1106 00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:29,800 Speaker 1: Beside him was Kasey Musgraves. So then I'm glad I 1107 00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:31,160 Speaker 1: didn't take the picture at all because I don't want 1108 00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:32,359 Speaker 1: her thing I'll take a picture of her. I don't 1109 00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:36,319 Speaker 1: wanted to lunchbox every where he go. So I texted 1110 00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:38,480 Speaker 1: Mike and I say, Kasey Musgraves is here in the airport. 1111 00:52:38,920 --> 00:52:41,200 Speaker 1: Maybe she's, you know, flying with us. Heads up, And 1112 00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:43,279 Speaker 1: Mike's like, Derek Cuff's on the plane already, and I 1113 00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:45,359 Speaker 1: was like, damn, we're getting on celebrity flight because we're 1114 00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 1: go in to LA. You know, it turns out Muskrats 1115 00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:49,880 Speaker 1: was not on the flight because I saw her turn 1116 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:52,759 Speaker 1: into the delta like a HWI Twity lounge, which I met. 1117 00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:54,719 Speaker 1: I go to the way Twittery Loune sometimes too, but 1118 00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:57,960 Speaker 1: I didn't have time on this day. And then I 1119 00:52:57,960 --> 00:53:00,359 Speaker 1: get on, I didn't see Derek Cuff anywhere, and Derek 1120 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:05,080 Speaker 1: Cupp was not in first class? Can you believe it? Yeah? 1121 00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:08,840 Speaker 1: I believe it, Yeah, because like what is first class? 1122 00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:11,399 Speaker 1: You pay extra to get your drink first before everyone else. 1123 00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:16,520 Speaker 1: And Eddie, I was in first class of second of all, 1124 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:18,440 Speaker 1: but you didn't pay for that. There's no way you 1125 00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:21,799 Speaker 1: pay for first class. I know that I did. You 1126 00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:25,160 Speaker 1: did it? That's shocking. Well the deal that I well, 1127 00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:26,480 Speaker 1: it's a four and a half hour flight. It's bas 1128 00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:28,480 Speaker 1: the only time I'll do it because it's just so long. 1129 00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:33,560 Speaker 1: And the fact that we were flying all the way 1130 00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:37,480 Speaker 1: here and I paid for it.

Four and a half hours, that was it, 1151 00:54:23,040 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 1: And so get in, go to sleep and wake up 1152 00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:30,319 Speaker 1: this morning, you know, do the show, and then we 1153 00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:32,320 Speaker 1: have an hour in between before we go do the 1154 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:34,080 Speaker 1: Rich Eyesen show. I did a lot of notes last 1155 00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:37,760 Speaker 1: night and went in and I was a little nervous because, 1156 00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:40,840 Speaker 1: like I think being nervous for something that you enjoy, 1157 00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:43,960 Speaker 1: like that's healthy because it's worth something to you, it 1158 00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:45,759 Speaker 1: means something to you. And so I was a little 1159 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:47,279 Speaker 1: nervous and we go and I didn't know any of 1160 00:54:47,280 --> 00:54:50,960 Speaker 1: the guys that run the rich eisenshow except for when 1161 00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:53,719 Speaker 1: I listen on the podcast, and so we walk in. 1162 00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:56,799 Speaker 1: We get a quick tour. But like I mentioned before, 1163 00:54:56,840 --> 00:54:58,440 Speaker 1: when rich Eisen called me, he was like, do this 1164 00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:00,600 Speaker 1: show however you want to do it, Like, we're not 1165 00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:03,239 Speaker 1: bringing you in so you can run down the you know, 1166 00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:05,759 Speaker 1: the roads that I've paved, like come in. Obviously they'll 1167 00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:07,880 Speaker 1: be like clocks and you gotta get out of certain times. 1168 00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:10,160 Speaker 1: And but it's like, don't just do what you want 1169 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:12,560 Speaker 1: to do it. So I was like, dang, okay, And 1170 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 1: there's not the kind of the flexibility to well, I 1171 00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:18,680 Speaker 1: got a pee, let me play a song, because sometimes 1172 00:55:18,719 --> 00:55:20,279 Speaker 1: on our show will play a song. Sometimes we won't 1173 00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:22,080 Speaker 1: for a long time. But if I got a pee, 1174 00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:23,759 Speaker 1: or I want to get some to eat real quick, 1175 00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:26,279 Speaker 1: I'll just hit a three minute Tyler far soong, you know, 1176 00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 1: and get the heck out of there. So but there's 1177 00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:32,719 Speaker 1: not that it's three hours, no no songs, nothing, and 1178 00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:35,239 Speaker 1: the breaks aren't any longer than two minutes or so 1179 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:38,160 Speaker 1: because there are times when we're on TV that we're 1180 00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 1: not on radio. So I never got to go to 1181 00:55:41,080 --> 00:55:43,160 Speaker 1: the bathroom. I didn't know that, or I I would have 1182 00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:47,000 Speaker 1: squeeze it out a little. I'd like rung out the 1183 00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:49,759 Speaker 1: wash rag a little more before I went into those 1184 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:52,360 Speaker 1: You didn't go to the restroom, not three hours. I 1185 00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:56,400 Speaker 1: couldn't at that time. But man, the studio's massive. It's awesome. 1186 00:55:56,440 --> 00:55:59,240 Speaker 1: They have a putting green in there. They've got huge 1187 00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:03,040 Speaker 1: monitor that I mean, it's way bigger than I thought 1188 00:56:03,080 --> 00:56:04,920 Speaker 1: it was going to because most studios should go into 1189 00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:08,239 Speaker 1: You're like, oh, this is really small, and why it 1190 00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:10,120 Speaker 1: looks so big. It is because there are camera angles 1191 00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:13,520 Speaker 1: that shoot from different sides. Therefore it makes it look 1192 00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:18,239 Speaker 1: much grander. And went in sat at the desk. It's like, dang, 1193 00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:21,080 Speaker 1: this is the coolest about to happen a little nervous, 1194 00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:23,239 Speaker 1: but in a very very healthy way because I never 1195 00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:25,319 Speaker 1: feel that way anymore. And I get excited when I 1196 00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:27,560 Speaker 1: get to And they were like, all right, here we 1197 00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:30,120 Speaker 1: go three two, and it's like the Rich Eyes and 1198 00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:33,040 Speaker 1: show and here's your guests, Bobby Bones and the way 1199 00:56:33,080 --> 00:56:35,920 Speaker 1: I went and I kind of blinked and it was 1200 00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:39,240 Speaker 1: over three hours later. But some of the cool stuff 1201 00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:42,080 Speaker 1: was the fact that Craig Kilbourne said yes to come 1202 00:56:42,080 --> 00:56:43,520 Speaker 1: on the show immediately. I mean he was like, yeah, 1203 00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:44,960 Speaker 1: I'll be there, no problem, I'd love to do it. 1204 00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:47,440 Speaker 1: I did his podcast and I definitely don't think he 1205 00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:50,359 Speaker 1: owed me, but I think, you know, we we don't tell. 1206 00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:53,320 Speaker 1: I don't have his number, but we dm an okay 1207 00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:55,400 Speaker 1: amount that Craig worn to me. It's like one of 1208 00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:57,520 Speaker 1: the guys there was like, oh, there's an example of 1209 00:56:57,520 --> 00:56:59,280 Speaker 1: somebody who got into sports. But then it was also 1210 00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:01,720 Speaker 1: funny and enough to do the Daily show on Comedy 1211 00:57:01,760 --> 00:57:04,560 Speaker 1: Central and late did a late night talk show, like 1212 00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:07,520 Speaker 1: there really aren't any restraints if you don't allow them, 1213 00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:10,360 Speaker 1: there aren't any. And I've kind of been doing my 1214 00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:12,760 Speaker 1: career the same way, and so that was super cool 1215 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:14,640 Speaker 1: that he came in.

I didn't know he was at dull and 1218 00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:21,760 Speaker 1: he's super cool, super nice. Even during the break, super 1219 00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:24,880 Speaker 1: dry said to humor. I kept him on for an 1220 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:28,440 Speaker 1: extra segment, and that was a real highlight for me. 1221 00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:30,400 Speaker 1: Coleman came on the show today, which I was talking 1222 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:32,560 Speaker 1: to Mike and I said, Hey, we're really building this 1223 00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:36,240 Speaker 1: resume at for old Coleman.

I don't really get to do a lot 1295 01:00:47,080 --> 01:00:48,840 Speaker 1: of things just because I want to do them, meaning 1296 01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:51,360 Speaker 1: they're so fun that I will put everything else kind 1297 01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:53,160 Speaker 1: of on hold. But this is one of them and 1298 01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:55,560 Speaker 1: it was worth it. And I was a little, I 1299 01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:59,560 Speaker 1: will say, unsure, but I was a little it will 1300 01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:03,480 Speaker 1: be a good I would use. I wasn't well, I 1301 01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:05,360 Speaker 1: was gonna say I wasn't sure if that would be unsure. Huh, 1302 01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:10,880 Speaker 1: So I wasn't sure how going three hours non stop, 1303 01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:18,040 Speaker 1: no no commercial breaks over three minutes. How much material 1304 01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:21,240 Speaker 1: that is to fill in sports? Because if we do 1305 01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:23,520 Speaker 1: our morning show, Bro, I can go in and I 1306 01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:25,040 Speaker 1: have enough for a whole five hour show, plus I 1307 01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:26,960 Speaker 1: got another two but also can go pee one, I 1308 01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:29,280 Speaker 1: need to and go and grab something to eat, and 1309 01:01:29,320 --> 01:01:31,240 Speaker 1: so a little bit. I was intimidated by just a 1310 01:01:31,280 --> 01:01:33,200 Speaker 1: sheer amount of minutes that you don't leave at all. 1311 01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:37,320 Speaker 1: And yeah, it's pretty good bye. About two hours and 1312 01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:40,080 Speaker 1: twenty minutes or so, I was like, all right, I 1313 01:01:40,080 --> 01:01:42,320 Speaker 1: feel a little fatigued. But Craig Kilburne was coming on, 1314 01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:44,880 Speaker 1: and I was like, man, it's awesome, And if he's cool, 1315 01:01:45,120 --> 01:01:49,280 Speaker 1: we're gonna go two segments. So that's a super fun experience. Well, Coleman, 1316 01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:53,520 Speaker 1: where did you do you're calling from? Actually I stayed 1317 01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:56,440 Speaker 1: at a kid's house from Liberty. So he's an ex 1318 01:01:56,600 --> 01:01:59,680 Speaker 1: Liberty grad that went to the Liberty game that I 1319 01:01:59,720 --> 01:02:02,160 Speaker 1: was at previously, and so I stayed at his place. 1320 01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:04,440 Speaker 1: He's living in Charlotte, but he didn't come with me 1321 01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:07,240 Speaker 1: to the game. Craig less misconnection or what how'd you 1322 01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:10,320 Speaker 1: meet him? So? Yeah, I mean I've had a few 1323 01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:14,440 Speaker 1: people DM me about wanting their school represented. He was 1324 01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:16,360 Speaker 1: one of them that was consistent about it. So when 1325 01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:18,480 Speaker 1: I came to the Liberty game, they hooked me up, 1326 01:02:18,560 --> 01:02:21,000 Speaker 1: rolled out the red carpet for me basically, and then 1327 01:02:21,160 --> 01:02:23,640 Speaker 1: when I posted my future schedule of being in Charlotte, 1328 01:02:23,640 --> 01:02:25,840 Speaker 1: he was like, Hey, I live in Charlotte. You want 1329 01:02:25,880 --> 01:02:27,360 Speaker 1: to crash at my place for a couple of days. 1330 01:02:27,360 --> 01:02:29,240 Speaker 1: So that's what I've done. Okay, I need to say 1331 01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:31,800 Speaker 1: something everybody. I just relax for a second as I 1332 01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:35,640 Speaker 1: say a prayer. Dear God's Bobby here, thank you for 1333 01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:38,200 Speaker 1: not letting Coleman get murdered. Because a lot of people 1334 01:02:38,200 --> 01:02:41,440 Speaker 1: will say somebody they meet online and they continue to go, hey, 1335 01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:42,360 Speaker 1: I want to be your friend. I want to be 1336 01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:43,480 Speaker 1: your friend. I want to be your friend. That would 1337 01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:45,800 Speaker 1: be a stalker or a murderer. But Coleman didn't see 1338 01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:47,040 Speaker 1: it as that. He saw it is just a place 1339 01:02:47,080 --> 01:02:49,840 Speaker 1: to crash. So we'd like to thank you for blessing 1340 01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:54,400 Speaker 1: us with Coleman again today because probably ninety nine out 1341 01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:57,000 Speaker 1: of a hundred, I got to have an extra couple 1342 01:02:57,000 --> 01:02:58,800 Speaker 1: of kidneys to donate or to sell in the black market. 1343 01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:03,959 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's I interrupted the prayer. God, 1344 01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:08,000 Speaker 1: thank you Lord for letting us do the show, and 1345 01:03:08,080 --> 01:03:09,680 Speaker 1: for let me have a good lunch and have a 1346 01:03:09,680 --> 01:03:11,720 Speaker 1: good rich eyes and show today, and for letting Coleman 1347 01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:14,640 Speaker 1: be here safely, because that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. 1348 01:03:14,840 --> 01:03:19,440 Speaker 1: All Right, your name a prayman, Amen, good prayer, Bobby. 1349 01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:22,000 Speaker 1: This dude was do you know what you call somebody 1350 01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:23,360 Speaker 1: who you don't know who keeps saying I want to 1351 01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:25,840 Speaker 1: be your friend over and over and over again. Right, Well, 1352 01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:28,800 Speaker 1: I met them at the Liberty game, So it wasn't 1353 01:03:28,840 --> 01:03:30,600 Speaker 1: like I just how long? How long to spend with them? 1354 01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:34,000 Speaker 1: Two hours watching the game with him? You sat beside 1355 01:03:34,040 --> 01:03:36,560 Speaker 1: like I knew the guy. Well, you sat beside him 1356 01:03:36,560 --> 01:03:40,200 Speaker 1: for a game, yes, a whole game? Yes? Yeah, And 1357 01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:43,800 Speaker 1: so did you have conversations about I don't know, his 1358 01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:49,640 Speaker 1: love of murder podcasts, or we didn't have conversations about 1359 01:03:49,680 --> 01:03:52,680 Speaker 1: his wife, his family, his time at Liberty. Seemed like 1360 01:03:52,720 --> 01:03:54,440 Speaker 1: a great a guy that I could go stay at 1361 01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:56,160 Speaker 1: his house. He hit a sleep at his house? You 1362 01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:59,040 Speaker 1: didn't know? That's that is bizarre to me, Eddie. If 1363 01:03:59,040 --> 01:04:01,360 Speaker 1: somebody met into the basketball guest just come sleep at 1364 01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:03,520 Speaker 1: my house over and over again, like, hey, man to 1365 01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:06,080 Speaker 1: me again, you want to come sleep in my house? Hey, hey, 1366 01:04:06,320 --> 01:04:09,680 Speaker 1: I've done it. I've done it, so like its crazy. 1367 01:04:10,160 --> 01:04:12,560 Speaker 1: I went to Arkansas one time and I went to 1368 01:04:12,600 --> 01:04:14,440 Speaker 1: a bar and I was either going to pay for 1369 01:04:14,480 --> 01:04:16,919 Speaker 1: a hotel or this guy that I met at the bar. 1370 01:04:17,160 --> 01:04:19,200 Speaker 1: He said, Hey, you're just passing, dude. Just stay at 1371 01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:21,520 Speaker 1: my house, and what's wrong with you? Guys? What's wrong 1372 01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,840 Speaker 1: with you? Guys? It was free and he didn't kill me, dude. 1373 01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:26,560 Speaker 1: What was awkward, though, was the morning when I woke 1374 01:04:26,640 --> 01:04:28,120 Speaker 1: up and he was like, yeah, I live at my 1375 01:04:28,160 --> 01:04:30,440 Speaker 1: parents house and they're downstairs and we all had breakfast. 1376 01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:32,480 Speaker 1: I'm like, I gotta get out of here. This is weird. 1377 01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:36,600 Speaker 1: Oh my god. Yeah, for sure, there's pictures of your 1378 01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:40,040 Speaker 1: wiener on somebody's phone or the internet, probably, but there's 1379 01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:41,920 Speaker 1: no face to it. It's all good. Yeah, it's a 1380 01:04:41,960 --> 01:04:45,040 Speaker 1: good point. That's a good point. I can't believe you 1381 01:04:45,080 --> 01:04:48,439 Speaker 1: guys would just say how how are the accommodations? Coleman fantastic? 1382 01:04:48,720 --> 01:04:51,160 Speaker 1: I mean, way too nice for me. Did he feel 1383 01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:56,240 Speaker 1: like you're kind of famous? I to tell you the truth, 1384 01:04:56,400 --> 01:04:59,000 Speaker 1: it does feel like that when people approach me that are, 1385 01:04:59,040 --> 01:05:01,080 Speaker 1: you know, excited at these goals or whatever, which is 1386 01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:04,320 Speaker 1: weird because I'm just some random guy that hopped in 1387 01:05:04,360 --> 01:05:06,960 Speaker 1: his car and decided to start recording smallman major college 1388 01:05:06,960 --> 01:05:10,000 Speaker 1: basketball games. But yeah, I get that feeling a little 1389 01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:11,880 Speaker 1: bit like you deserve it. Good for you, You're putting 1390 01:05:11,880 --> 01:05:14,560 Speaker 1: in the work. You know eventually though, that that luck 1391 01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:17,280 Speaker 1: will run out and you will die a bad you'll 1392 01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:20,240 Speaker 1: get killed death and your sleep. Yes, yeah, yeah, I 1393 01:05:20,560 --> 01:05:22,320 Speaker 1: need to probably be a little bit more leary, not 1394 01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:25,560 Speaker 1: as naive. But it's gotten me here. Kevin. You ever 1395 01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:27,480 Speaker 1: said anybody's house that you just met randomly? That's not 1396 01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:29,280 Speaker 1: a chick. That's what I was just trying to think of. 1397 01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:31,800 Speaker 1: I was like, have I done this too? But I 1398 01:05:31,840 --> 01:05:33,840 Speaker 1: can't think of one. I don't think even all the 1399 01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:37,560 Speaker 1: nights have I've had out Eddie at a bar, random cities, 1400 01:05:37,800 --> 01:05:40,520 Speaker 1: random states, and I don't think countries even, And I 1401 01:05:40,560 --> 01:05:43,480 Speaker 1: don't think I've ever even done that. But that you said, bones, 1402 01:05:43,480 --> 01:05:46,400 Speaker 1: that's not a chick. What's the difference. Oh, there's a 1403 01:05:46,440 --> 01:05:50,080 Speaker 1: big Well, there's a there's a big difference, Eddie. Not 1404 01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:51,920 Speaker 1: that I'm just saying. It's like what's the difference I 1405 01:05:51,960 --> 01:05:54,800 Speaker 1: did what that dude? Would you do with a chick? No? No, 1406 01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:56,880 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, like, you go home with a girl 1407 01:05:56,960 --> 01:05:58,840 Speaker 1: and whatever, that's weird you don't know him, or you 1408 01:05:58,920 --> 01:06:03,480 Speaker 1: go home that guy. Differences And I never listen. I 1409 01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:07,160 Speaker 1: wasn't cool, and then I was also mature early, but 1410 01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:09,880 Speaker 1: most like nobody wanted to take me home anyway. I 1411 01:06:09,960 --> 01:06:12,400 Speaker 1: never did that, but I would have. I think maybe 1412 01:06:13,000 --> 01:06:15,560 Speaker 1: when I was twenty two and been like, Wow, this 1413 01:06:15,640 --> 01:06:17,160 Speaker 1: is this be fun. I was a virgin, a twenty 1414 01:06:17,160 --> 01:06:18,760 Speaker 1: two tho, so I probably wouldn't have. But it feels 1415 01:06:18,760 --> 01:06:21,520 Speaker 1: like it's a romantic, Like thinking back about it, like 1416 01:06:21,680 --> 01:06:23,000 Speaker 1: you do it because you're like I want to go 1417 01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:24,960 Speaker 1: and hook up, right, And you guys, you did it 1418 01:06:24,960 --> 01:06:28,920 Speaker 1: because you wanted somewhere to sleep. Yeah it was free, Yeah, exactly. 1419 01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:31,760 Speaker 1: Running low on funds two months in? Are you really 1420 01:06:31,840 --> 01:06:35,040 Speaker 1: running low? Well, I mean I think that's you've been 1421 01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:38,160 Speaker 1: a godsend. No, I mean really, are you running lolo 1422 01:06:38,200 --> 01:06:39,800 Speaker 1: or are you running low? No? No, no, no, I'm 1423 01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:41,960 Speaker 1: not running lolo. But it was nice. It's just like, hey, 1424 01:06:41,960 --> 01:06:43,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna save two hundred bucks over the next two 1425 01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:47,000 Speaker 1: nights that I completely understand. Now, what about your wife though, 1426 01:06:47,040 --> 01:06:50,280 Speaker 1: is she like bro run out of money? No? No, no, no, 1427 01:06:50,320 --> 01:06:53,560 Speaker 1: she she's killing it in her career. So she's doing fun. 1428 01:06:54,480 --> 01:07:00,400 Speaker 1: Got your sugar, mama? Yeah, I like it. Yeah, So 1429 01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:03,680 Speaker 1: the experience was super cool. Sports wise, I did watch 1430 01:07:03,760 --> 01:07:06,240 Speaker 1: the first four episodes of Full Swing on Netflix. You 1431 01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:08,480 Speaker 1: have to watch any of that yet, Yeah, I've watched 1432 01:07:08,480 --> 01:07:11,840 Speaker 1: the first two episodes. Yeah, it's pretty good. I've watched 1433 01:07:11,800 --> 01:07:16,680 Speaker 1: the Jordan's Feet that justin Thomas relationship, and then brooks Kefca, 1434 01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:18,920 Speaker 1: which due on Bridge Eisen. When you were talking about 1435 01:07:18,960 --> 01:07:22,720 Speaker 1: brooks Kepca, I'm like, yes, yes, what he's saying. Absolutely. 1436 01:07:23,280 --> 01:07:25,040 Speaker 1: After I finished a segment, I felt a little bad 1437 01:07:25,040 --> 01:07:27,880 Speaker 1: because I went hard. I was with you though, dude, 1438 01:07:27,880 --> 01:07:30,240 Speaker 1: you should see me in the car being like, uh huh. 1439 01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:35,040 Speaker 1: It was like his Haribean died blong. And it was 1440 01:07:35,440 --> 01:07:38,240 Speaker 1: the fact just how he talked everything about him just 1441 01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:40,000 Speaker 1: feels like that's not somebody really want to be friends with, 1442 01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:44,040 Speaker 1: Like it didn't seem likable. And then the fact that 1443 01:07:44,120 --> 01:07:46,600 Speaker 1: I know well, I mean the staff told me at 1444 01:07:46,600 --> 01:07:48,040 Speaker 1: a hotel with my wife and I were staying at 1445 01:07:48,040 --> 01:07:51,080 Speaker 1: they were just very very difficult everybody all And I 1446 01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:52,680 Speaker 1: was like, already, don't like that out too, So I 1447 01:07:52,680 --> 01:07:56,600 Speaker 1: had a kind of a preconcid feeling before even started it. 1448 01:07:57,280 --> 01:07:59,000 Speaker 1: But yeah, he didn't come off well. I know, they 1449 01:07:59,040 --> 01:08:01,080 Speaker 1: tried to make him come off well, like he's being honest, 1450 01:08:01,080 --> 01:08:04,240 Speaker 1: and I didn't like him. Yeah, he was vulnerable, but 1451 01:08:04,280 --> 01:08:06,920 Speaker 1: I mean he was still kind of like just a 1452 01:08:07,360 --> 01:08:10,160 Speaker 1: dude you don't want to hang out with. Yeah, his 1453 01:08:10,240 --> 01:08:12,360 Speaker 1: house was pretty amazing, though, Dude, how about his house? 1454 01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:16,720 Speaker 1: His house was pretty like and but also when his 1455 01:08:16,840 --> 01:08:19,760 Speaker 1: wife even, I feel like they're perfect for each other 1456 01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:23,880 Speaker 1: watching it, I just feel like they're perfect. She's really pretty. Yeah, 1457 01:08:23,880 --> 01:08:25,120 Speaker 1: but I feel like they were. They just said that 1458 01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:29,120 Speaker 1: same vibe, like, yeah, we're very cool, and you guys aren't. 1459 01:08:29,240 --> 01:08:31,160 Speaker 1: I was surprised she said that she slid into his 1460 01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:34,920 Speaker 1: DMS that's how they met. It was like, good for you, Yeah, 1461 01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:38,880 Speaker 1: she's like isolated his DMS. Yeah, you know, I don't 1462 01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:40,240 Speaker 1: know how I feel about that. I guess I feel 1463 01:08:40,280 --> 01:08:42,000 Speaker 1: fine about that. I didn't think anything about that at all. 1464 01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:45,200 Speaker 1: I just imagine guys like that probably have chicks like 1465 01:08:45,240 --> 01:08:49,200 Speaker 1: crazy sliding in their DMS, right, exactly. Yeah, but I 1466 01:08:49,479 --> 01:08:50,920 Speaker 1: think it's good. It's a good show. Maybe I want 1467 01:08:50,920 --> 01:08:52,280 Speaker 1: to go play golf. And then I saw Eddi playing 1468 01:08:52,280 --> 01:08:58,760 Speaker 1: golf to day, like dang it must That's why I went, guys, Oh, 1469 01:08:58,800 --> 01:09:01,559 Speaker 1: go ahead, Sorry, I was just gonna throw my opinion 1470 01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:03,840 Speaker 1: in there for the Brooks Kapti stuff. If you're gonna 1471 01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:06,519 Speaker 1: act that way, you better continue to dominate because the 1472 01:09:06,600 --> 01:09:10,880 Speaker 1: moment you stop having success, people are gonna hate you. 1473 01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:14,320 Speaker 1: You know, I didn't realize how dominant he was, and 1474 01:09:14,360 --> 01:09:16,320 Speaker 1: I said that even today on the Rich Eyes and Show. 1475 01:09:16,680 --> 01:09:18,320 Speaker 1: I knew he'd won the majors and I knew, but 1476 01:09:18,400 --> 01:09:20,439 Speaker 1: I didn't realize that he would just kind of show 1477 01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:22,120 Speaker 1: up to the big ones and crush him and everybody 1478 01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:24,639 Speaker 1: was like, god, dang, he did it again. Yeah he winned, 1479 01:09:24,680 --> 01:09:26,920 Speaker 1: and he was a semi consistent winner, and there you go. 1480 01:09:27,280 --> 01:09:30,559 Speaker 1: But this show is cool in that way because everybody 1481 01:09:30,600 --> 01:09:33,160 Speaker 1: has their own their a little cup they could put 1482 01:09:33,160 --> 01:09:34,479 Speaker 1: all their stuff and you get to drink it all 1483 01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:37,240 Speaker 1: at once, the Scottie Scheffler stuff, and you've seen that 1484 01:09:37,240 --> 01:09:38,880 Speaker 1: at all. Oh dude, the Scottie Chef. I love it, 1485 01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:41,439 Speaker 1: and I love the difference between those two. You know, like, Okay, 1486 01:09:41,479 --> 01:09:44,479 Speaker 1: that's the same episode, that the same episode. That guy 1487 01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:48,960 Speaker 1: is the exact opposite of Brooks Cafe. Everything about him, 1488 01:09:48,960 --> 01:09:51,960 Speaker 1: every it's yeah, it's like, uh, you ever see SPI 1489 01:09:52,120 --> 01:09:54,320 Speaker 1: or Spy the Old Black the old cartoon and where 1490 01:09:54,320 --> 01:09:55,680 Speaker 1: it was like the like little birds and ones and 1491 01:09:55,720 --> 01:09:58,120 Speaker 1: all black ones white and it was a complete opposite 1492 01:09:58,160 --> 01:10:00,479 Speaker 1: of each other. Yeah, they have long noses. Yeah, that's 1493 01:10:00,479 --> 01:10:03,640 Speaker 1: what it felt like, like those two is the exact opposite. 1494 01:10:04,439 --> 01:10:06,880 Speaker 1: And I like, I didn't realize again that Scheffler had 1495 01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:10,760 Speaker 1: didn't win at all. Wins one event which was like 1496 01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:14,920 Speaker 1: the was it the crazy one in Arizonast whatever was 1497 01:10:15,160 --> 01:10:18,040 Speaker 1: waste management? Okay, so it's just a tour event, a 1498 01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:20,600 Speaker 1: big tour event, not a major and then goes and 1499 01:10:20,680 --> 01:10:23,160 Speaker 1: it's on fire and like the course of three months 1500 01:10:23,200 --> 01:10:27,080 Speaker 1: maybe goes from one hundred to number one. He's still 1501 01:10:27,120 --> 01:10:32,080 Speaker 1: on fire. That is wild. You're gonna love the fourth episode. 1502 01:10:32,080 --> 01:10:33,479 Speaker 1: I don't want to kill too much of it here 1503 01:10:33,479 --> 01:10:36,320 Speaker 1: talking working with you now, but the fourth episode is 1504 01:10:38,560 --> 01:10:45,439 Speaker 1: uh Dahmer, That's what I was saying. It's uh jam Damer. 1505 01:10:45,479 --> 01:10:47,240 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, he's kind of like a crazy dude, 1506 01:10:48,080 --> 01:10:50,800 Speaker 1: not that crazy on the surface. Yeah, he's like funny 1507 01:10:50,800 --> 01:10:55,200 Speaker 1: and goofy. Yeah, but he's somebody who who is real 1508 01:10:55,280 --> 01:10:57,200 Speaker 1: good but doesn't believe in himself, so he doesn't self 1509 01:10:57,240 --> 01:11:00,360 Speaker 1: deprecating stuff. Okay, to make sure that no expectations put on. 1510 01:11:00,520 --> 01:11:05,960 Speaker 1: I mean I felt that. But it's really good and 1511 01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:07,760 Speaker 1: you finish it and you're like, man, that guy one 1512 01:11:07,840 --> 01:11:09,920 Speaker 1: has been through it. Hey, did you watch it, Kevin? 1513 01:11:09,960 --> 01:11:11,519 Speaker 1: I did? Yeah, I made it up to that episode 1514 01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:14,400 Speaker 1: that was my last one. You got I love him 1515 01:11:14,439 --> 01:11:17,240 Speaker 1: not you. Yeah, he's definitely my favorite so far in 1516 01:11:17,240 --> 01:11:19,599 Speaker 1: all those episodes because you're just like, come on, man, 1517 01:11:19,640 --> 01:11:20,840 Speaker 1: you just want to root for him, and he's like 1518 01:11:20,960 --> 01:11:24,679 Speaker 1: just a lovable, funny, goofy guy, but he doesn't believe himself, 1519 01:11:24,720 --> 01:11:26,519 Speaker 1: like he said, and you just want to root for him. 1520 01:11:26,560 --> 01:11:29,200 Speaker 1: He's like the underdog and you can't help but like him. 1521 01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:32,240 Speaker 1: A really good show. I'm excited to watch the rest 1522 01:11:32,240 --> 01:11:34,720 Speaker 1: of it, even with the impoulter. Yeah, what about him? Who? 1523 01:11:35,040 --> 01:11:36,120 Speaker 1: Do you want to talk about it in a minute 1524 01:11:36,200 --> 01:11:38,920 Speaker 1: or no, I'll talk about it. I've seen the whole um, 1525 01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:41,720 Speaker 1: the clip the teaser where he like, you know, throw 1526 01:11:41,800 --> 01:11:43,880 Speaker 1: something in his locker and he yells or whatever. And 1527 01:11:43,920 --> 01:11:46,880 Speaker 1: then I saw a TikTok video of where they zoomed 1528 01:11:46,880 --> 01:11:49,400 Speaker 1: in and there was a handle of Tito's in his locker. 1529 01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:53,000 Speaker 1: It's like somebody, you know, somebody watching like, oh, look 1530 01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:55,519 Speaker 1: at this, maybe this is why he's pissed off. Well, 1531 01:11:55,640 --> 01:11:57,920 Speaker 1: so he's like forty six, so obviously a little older 1532 01:11:57,920 --> 01:12:00,280 Speaker 1: in the golf game. And they do highlights fact that 1533 01:12:00,320 --> 01:12:02,200 Speaker 1: it's been crazy he kept his card for that long, 1534 01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:05,439 Speaker 1: like he's still top whatever it gets, keeps PGA card. 1535 01:12:06,280 --> 01:12:09,080 Speaker 1: And I know him from his clothes and his pants. 1536 01:12:10,120 --> 01:12:11,880 Speaker 1: I guess I don't really know a lot about him, 1537 01:12:11,880 --> 01:12:14,280 Speaker 1: other than I would just see him play sometimes, meaning 1538 01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:16,720 Speaker 1: he wasn't somebody who want a bunch of majors. I 1539 01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:19,920 Speaker 1: don't know if he's want to he used to. I 1540 01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:23,240 Speaker 1: don't think he has no I can't identify him winning 1541 01:12:23,240 --> 01:12:25,479 Speaker 1: a major, right, but he would win a lot and 1542 01:12:25,560 --> 01:12:29,000 Speaker 1: in the Ryder Cup he never lost. He would play 1543 01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:32,160 Speaker 1: against somebody and he never lost. And so this is 1544 01:12:32,240 --> 01:12:35,760 Speaker 1: him being older, his family, and all it really was 1545 01:12:35,760 --> 01:12:39,240 Speaker 1: was a vehicle to show you somebody who decided to 1546 01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:42,599 Speaker 1: go over and play it live like live golf. And 1547 01:12:43,200 --> 01:12:46,280 Speaker 1: I didn't hate I didn't hate him after it. How 1548 01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:49,679 Speaker 1: much of this have you seen, Coleman? Oh? None? Okay, 1549 01:12:49,680 --> 01:12:51,120 Speaker 1: That's why I was saying, I can't wait for this 1550 01:12:51,240 --> 01:12:54,040 Speaker 1: journey then, so I can start that. I didn't hate 1551 01:12:54,080 --> 01:12:56,479 Speaker 1: him after it, because he was like, hey, look this, 1552 01:12:56,560 --> 01:12:58,160 Speaker 1: and they spent a bunch of time showing his family 1553 01:12:58,200 --> 01:13:02,599 Speaker 1: and his kids, and he doesn't qualify to go play 1554 01:13:02,640 --> 01:13:06,320 Speaker 1: the Masters, and he's struggling a bit, and they come 1555 01:13:06,320 --> 01:13:08,280 Speaker 1: and they offer a millions of bucks. And well, also 1556 01:13:08,320 --> 01:13:10,120 Speaker 1: what I was a little surprised by, I think they 1557 01:13:10,120 --> 01:13:15,320 Speaker 1: said after thirty years of playing golf professionally, around thirty, 1558 01:13:15,320 --> 01:13:17,840 Speaker 1: for maybe twenty six years, he had only made fifty 1559 01:13:17,840 --> 01:13:19,679 Speaker 1: million dollars. Now, when I say only, I know, fifty 1560 01:13:19,680 --> 01:13:22,280 Speaker 1: million bucks is a lot, but twenty five years, let's 1561 01:13:22,320 --> 01:13:25,760 Speaker 1: say twenty five, fifty million is two million a year. 1562 01:13:26,360 --> 01:13:28,840 Speaker 1: And I know him as far as like he's famous 1563 01:13:28,960 --> 01:13:33,000 Speaker 1: enough that I would know his face, and as much 1564 01:13:33,000 --> 01:13:35,519 Speaker 1: as he's having to pay in to travel to all 1565 01:13:35,520 --> 01:13:39,719 Speaker 1: these places. He's not making big time golf for money. 1566 01:13:40,320 --> 01:13:42,599 Speaker 1: It never has fifty millions a bunch, But over twenty 1567 01:13:42,600 --> 01:13:45,599 Speaker 1: five years, when you're a very known face and person 1568 01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:48,760 Speaker 1: in the PGA, I just would have expected it to 1569 01:13:48,800 --> 01:13:52,439 Speaker 1: be a lot more. But those are winnings, not saying 1570 01:13:52,439 --> 01:13:55,320 Speaker 1: that he's not making decent money too. Also with X 1571 01:13:55,439 --> 01:13:57,880 Speaker 1: Y and Z when it comes to sponsors. But also 1572 01:13:57,920 --> 01:14:00,479 Speaker 1: I don't think he's making massive sponsor money either, unless 1573 01:14:00,520 --> 01:14:04,759 Speaker 1: it's like in the UK. So he's like, I gotta 1574 01:14:04,760 --> 01:14:07,320 Speaker 1: play live. I don't I'm making that much money anymore. 1575 01:14:07,880 --> 01:14:10,080 Speaker 1: And he said, you know, you know, people say, hey, like, 1576 01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:12,600 Speaker 1: don't you have enough money? And he goes, you know, 1577 01:14:12,640 --> 01:14:15,800 Speaker 1: it's all relative, and I just want to make sure 1578 01:14:15,800 --> 01:14:17,920 Speaker 1: everybody set up for a while, and so I want 1579 01:14:17,960 --> 01:14:20,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go play anyone played he's on live, And 1580 01:14:20,840 --> 01:14:22,920 Speaker 1: I didn't hate him for it. Honestly. After I finished it, 1581 01:14:22,960 --> 01:14:24,760 Speaker 1: I was like, you know, i'd hope to think I 1582 01:14:24,800 --> 01:14:27,559 Speaker 1: wouldn't have played in that league. And after watching them 1583 01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:29,360 Speaker 1: talk about that league a little more, I think I like, 1584 01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:33,559 Speaker 1: I never liked it. I think I feel a little 1585 01:14:33,920 --> 01:14:38,040 Speaker 1: stronger than it sucks than I did. I like that 1586 01:14:38,120 --> 01:14:40,080 Speaker 1: it exists because it's making the PGA tour better. We 1587 01:14:40,120 --> 01:14:42,320 Speaker 1: saw their announcement where they're gonna cut some of the events, 1588 01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:43,960 Speaker 1: are gonna have a hundred fifty people in it. You 1589 01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:45,559 Speaker 1: know it's gonna be smaller or they're gonna do stuff 1590 01:14:45,560 --> 01:14:47,960 Speaker 1: to make it better for us. They're watching, and my 1591 01:14:49,560 --> 01:14:51,519 Speaker 1: excitement about Live was only that it was gonna make 1592 01:14:51,520 --> 01:14:53,680 Speaker 1: the PGA tour better. But then I see, you know, 1593 01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:56,240 Speaker 1: people were like, well, where you are, Nike, and they 1594 01:14:56,280 --> 01:15:00,880 Speaker 1: are committing people wrenking a sweatshops. They but I mean, 1595 01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:04,840 Speaker 1: the Saudi government really launched Live as kind of a 1596 01:15:04,920 --> 01:15:08,800 Speaker 1: PR stunt so that you're not like, man, everything Saudi 1597 01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:11,599 Speaker 1: Rabi does is bad, because I mean, I guess it's 1598 01:15:11,600 --> 01:15:14,439 Speaker 1: not all bad. They got Live, so it's just kind 1599 01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:17,480 Speaker 1: of a vehicle for them to what they call sports wash. 1600 01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:20,519 Speaker 1: Not granted, this is a person's perspective watching it, but 1601 01:15:20,560 --> 01:15:22,599 Speaker 1: I finished and I was like, yeah, lives literally sucks. 1602 01:15:23,560 --> 01:15:25,920 Speaker 1: If I finished thinking that. And Phil Mickelson like he's 1603 01:15:25,920 --> 01:15:30,599 Speaker 1: gone full Hollywood Hogan, meaning yeah, Hole Coogan, he's the same, 1604 01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:32,360 Speaker 1: but Hole Coogan died his beard black and then became 1605 01:15:32,360 --> 01:15:35,320 Speaker 1: Hollywood Hogan. Philson like, where's all black now? And has 1606 01:15:35,320 --> 01:15:38,679 Speaker 1: like a black beard, like he went full heel, which 1607 01:15:38,720 --> 01:15:43,680 Speaker 1: that was never him. And thing with Phil too, though, 1608 01:15:43,680 --> 01:15:46,280 Speaker 1: was he's such in such gambling debt. I think that 1609 01:15:46,360 --> 01:15:49,160 Speaker 1: he needed the money. Hey, I yeah, you know, I've 1610 01:15:49,160 --> 01:15:51,360 Speaker 1: heard stories that. Like, you know, there was a guy 1611 01:15:51,439 --> 01:15:53,680 Speaker 1: that a friend of mine who flew, you know, on 1612 01:15:53,720 --> 01:15:56,000 Speaker 1: an airplane and he was sitting set next to a 1613 01:15:56,040 --> 01:15:57,840 Speaker 1: guy and he said that what he does is go 1614 01:15:57,880 --> 01:16:01,880 Speaker 1: to these tournaments, these golf tournaments, and on Saturdays when 1615 01:16:02,120 --> 01:16:04,280 Speaker 1: the players missed the cut on Fridays, they go to 1616 01:16:04,360 --> 01:16:07,920 Speaker 1: local you know, courses and they start gambling for money. Wow. 1617 01:16:07,960 --> 01:16:09,720 Speaker 1: And he said he used to play Phil all the time. 1618 01:16:10,120 --> 01:16:11,680 Speaker 1: All the time, Phil would miss the cut and he 1619 01:16:11,720 --> 01:16:14,920 Speaker 1: would play on Saturday and Sunday there at the price. 1620 01:16:14,960 --> 01:16:17,040 Speaker 1: Phil would miss the cut all the time. I think 1621 01:16:17,040 --> 01:16:20,640 Speaker 1: they all do, they all do. Huh. That's pretty cool though, 1622 01:16:20,680 --> 01:16:23,760 Speaker 1: if you would know he's go out and you're the 1623 01:16:23,800 --> 01:16:26,800 Speaker 1: one person following them. But it's crazy on a public course. 1624 01:16:26,920 --> 01:16:30,320 Speaker 1: What's crazy, gallery by yourself, is that this guy is 1625 01:16:30,360 --> 01:16:32,800 Speaker 1: not good enough to play in the PGA Tour, but 1626 01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:36,479 Speaker 1: he's good enough to gamble against these pros, which is amazing. Wow. 1627 01:16:37,160 --> 01:16:40,000 Speaker 1: There was a story I saw about a guy and 1628 01:16:40,080 --> 01:16:41,880 Speaker 1: I don't think it was I think it was on 1629 01:16:41,920 --> 01:16:47,400 Speaker 1: TikTok and he was the member at Augusta who wasn't 1630 01:16:47,439 --> 01:16:50,840 Speaker 1: a pro golfer. But he's a member who, for like 1631 01:16:50,880 --> 01:16:54,160 Speaker 1: fifteen years or so was the odd man up up, 1632 01:16:54,479 --> 01:16:56,639 Speaker 1: meaning wants to cut happen if there were an odd 1633 01:16:56,680 --> 01:16:59,000 Speaker 1: number of people. They weren't gonna let one person play 1634 01:16:59,040 --> 01:17:01,439 Speaker 1: by themselves, so they sent a member, all the same 1635 01:17:01,520 --> 01:17:03,439 Speaker 1: member for many many years, just to play with whomever 1636 01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:06,439 Speaker 1: was the odd person up. So almost every year he 1637 01:17:06,520 --> 01:17:09,040 Speaker 1: ended up playing the tournament. Now stuff didn't count, but 1638 01:17:09,160 --> 01:17:11,120 Speaker 1: he just played along to keep the pace going and 1639 01:17:11,280 --> 01:17:13,840 Speaker 1: often shot really well. And I think this is the 1640 01:17:13,840 --> 01:17:16,000 Speaker 1: first year they removed him from n that's because he's 1641 01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:18,519 Speaker 1: getting he's getting older. Does anyone know that story? I 1642 01:17:18,520 --> 01:17:21,240 Speaker 1: don't know where I heard it. I hould you heard that, 1643 01:17:21,280 --> 01:17:23,880 Speaker 1: but that's awesome. Yeah, it had to be on TikTok 1644 01:17:23,880 --> 01:17:27,439 Speaker 1: because I get a lot of like just random crap. 1645 01:17:27,680 --> 01:17:30,559 Speaker 1: Meet Jeff Knox, the lucky non competing marker who gets 1646 01:17:30,560 --> 01:17:34,000 Speaker 1: to play the Masters. He's played with Tiger Ryan Bubba, 1647 01:17:34,240 --> 01:17:38,280 Speaker 1: and Jeff Knox is back at the Masters. So Staple thirteen. No, 1648 01:17:38,320 --> 01:17:41,280 Speaker 1: this is twenty nineteen. I got it. But that's that's him. 1649 01:17:41,360 --> 01:17:42,760 Speaker 1: But this is the first year he doesn't get to 1650 01:17:42,760 --> 01:17:44,080 Speaker 1: be that guy because I think he's getting a little 1651 01:17:44,080 --> 01:17:45,760 Speaker 1: older and can't quite keep up, so what have you? 1652 01:17:45,800 --> 01:17:48,120 Speaker 1: Shoots good enough to win? He's just like sorry, account, 1653 01:17:48,360 --> 01:17:51,960 Speaker 1: but he didn't play the first two days because they 1654 01:17:52,040 --> 01:17:55,760 Speaker 1: launch all of those groups full obviously, so it's just 1655 01:17:55,840 --> 01:17:57,639 Speaker 1: he's the odd man up. He's like a seat filler. 1656 01:17:57,680 --> 01:18:00,400 Speaker 1: That's how cool would that? And you know you're praying 1657 01:18:00,400 --> 01:18:03,360 Speaker 1: every year, be odd, bey odd. I want to get 1658 01:18:03,400 --> 01:18:06,360 Speaker 1: in a bed now. I never I never played at Augusta. 1659 01:18:06,560 --> 01:18:09,960 Speaker 1: Not that it's normal to not play at Augusta, but 1660 01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:12,519 Speaker 1: I got invited to play once, and then I got 1661 01:18:12,520 --> 01:18:15,599 Speaker 1: a gift to play at Augusta once. That's the gift 1662 01:18:15,640 --> 01:18:18,960 Speaker 1: is still there, right, No, no, say what happened?

There's no 1665 01:18:25,439 --> 01:18:27,400 Speaker 1: way for me to get out of it. And you 1666 01:18:27,479 --> 01:18:29,439 Speaker 1: have to play with a member. Now, sometimes you can 1667 01:18:29,479 --> 01:18:31,800 Speaker 1: know a person who knows a member and it's like, hey, 1668 01:18:31,800 --> 01:18:33,680 Speaker 1: we're filling this group out on't you can play with 1669 01:18:33,960 --> 01:18:37,920 Speaker 1: this The member also thinks you're cool, and so I 1670 01:18:37,920 --> 01:18:41,080 Speaker 1: couldn't do it as beat up.

I know it blows, so but I'll try 1687 01:19:22,640 --> 01:19:25,080 Speaker 1: to get us on somehow. I've bet Coleman's a good 1688 01:19:25,080 --> 01:19:29,120 Speaker 1: golfer though, too. I'm okay, I'm okay. What's your handicap? 1689 01:19:30,320 --> 01:19:33,200 Speaker 1: I'm probably about a five six. Ok, that's really good. 1690 01:19:33,960 --> 01:19:39,000 Speaker 1: It's the ugliest. Shut up. I hate this guy. Yeah 1691 01:19:39,520 --> 01:19:42,320 Speaker 1: we invited them. Yeah, all right, I think that's it. 1692 01:19:42,360 --> 01:19:43,559 Speaker 1: This has been a long one because we taped it 1693 01:19:43,560 --> 01:19:46,720 Speaker 1: over two days in me get into California. But it's 1694 01:19:46,720 --> 01:19:48,320 Speaker 1: been a really cool trip and hopefully I don't screw 1695 01:19:48,320 --> 01:19:50,360 Speaker 1: it up tomorrow. Let's have final thoughts around the room. 1696 01:19:51,360 --> 01:19:53,760 Speaker 1: Let's go to Eddie first, Eddie Man Bones, I'm gonna 1697 01:19:53,800 --> 01:19:56,680 Speaker 1: go back to um the Rich Eyes and show. When 1698 01:19:56,680 --> 01:19:58,760 Speaker 1: you were on there, you you asked the guys there 1699 01:19:58,880 --> 01:20:02,080 Speaker 1: his all his like you know his staff there, a 1700 01:20:02,160 --> 01:20:04,719 Speaker 1: really cool question which just made me think of things 1701 01:20:04,720 --> 01:20:07,040 Speaker 1: like you know, what's Rich like? And he wasn't there, 1702 01:20:07,160 --> 01:20:09,040 Speaker 1: and they were just kind of messing around, like is 1703 01:20:09,040 --> 01:20:11,080 Speaker 1: anyone listening or whatever, and I thought that was funny. 1704 01:20:11,240 --> 01:20:14,519 Speaker 1: But they really got a chance to like express really 1705 01:20:14,520 --> 01:20:16,519 Speaker 1: what they were impressed by, and they've been with him 1706 01:20:16,560 --> 01:20:18,960 Speaker 1: for so many years, and it made me think, like, 1707 01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:21,720 Speaker 1: I know that you were there filling in for one 1708 01:20:21,720 --> 01:20:25,559 Speaker 1: of your heroes, but at that moment, I thought, Bones 1709 01:20:25,680 --> 01:20:27,360 Speaker 1: is really cool because I felt like one of them, 1710 01:20:27,479 --> 01:20:30,360 Speaker 1: thinking about your career and thinking about how like, yeah, 1711 01:20:30,400 --> 01:20:32,360 Speaker 1: the way one guy was talking about how Rich went 1712 01:20:32,400 --> 01:20:34,599 Speaker 1: to the Hall of Fame and he just owned this 1713 01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:36,960 Speaker 1: room of three thousand people, and I'm like, I've seen 1714 01:20:37,000 --> 01:20:39,559 Speaker 1: Bones own a stadium before, you know, and like I've 1715 01:20:39,600 --> 01:20:43,360 Speaker 1: seen that. We've played so many shows together, and like, yes, 1716 01:20:43,479 --> 01:20:45,960 Speaker 1: if a headphone goes out or ten years go out, 1717 01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:48,320 Speaker 1: I'm like Bones handles it like a pro. And I 1718 01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:51,280 Speaker 1: would have answered all those questions the same way about 1719 01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:53,479 Speaker 1: you that they did do Rich. So, dude, I'm proud 1720 01:20:53,520 --> 01:20:55,640 Speaker 1: of you. It's really cool that you're that you were 1721 01:20:55,680 --> 01:20:57,880 Speaker 1: on the show and that you're filling in again tomorrow, 1722 01:20:58,000 --> 01:20:59,720 Speaker 1: and just want to say I'm proud of you. It's 1723 01:20:59,760 --> 01:21:03,080 Speaker 1: really thanks man. That means a lot because it's it's 1724 01:21:03,320 --> 01:21:08,479 Speaker 1: a wee thoughts Eddie. Yeah, way say Coleman, sweet thoughts Eddie. 1725 01:21:08,800 --> 01:21:10,120 Speaker 1: It is. Hey, this is we thought. Have we got 1726 01:21:10,160 --> 01:21:12,160 Speaker 1: see thought where you fix your microphone. Everybody's gonna get 1727 01:21:12,160 --> 01:21:13,960 Speaker 1: to hear this when the thing's over, where Coleman can 1728 01:21:14,080 --> 01:21:16,120 Speaker 1: freak and fix his microphone again. We've done like the 1729 01:21:17,200 --> 01:21:19,240 Speaker 1: goes together two of them. His microphone didn't work. They 1730 01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:25,360 Speaker 1: didn't even have a microphone. All right, great intro, Thanks 1731 01:21:25,360 --> 01:21:28,479 Speaker 1: for leading into me that way. So my final thought 1732 01:21:28,640 --> 01:21:32,559 Speaker 1: is you better appreciate the journey. The reason I say 1733 01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:35,600 Speaker 1: that I've now seen four college basketball games where I 1734 01:21:35,600 --> 01:21:38,200 Speaker 1: have watched a team season end and I'm up there 1735 01:21:38,280 --> 01:21:42,320 Speaker 1: sitting up by the parents and watching seniors, you know, cry, 1736 01:21:42,439 --> 01:21:45,599 Speaker 1: hug their teammates um as they fall short of their goal. 1737 01:21:46,040 --> 01:21:49,280 Speaker 1: And so I hope they don't see that failure and 1738 01:21:49,360 --> 01:21:52,080 Speaker 1: look at that is the end. But they look back 1739 01:21:52,200 --> 01:21:54,120 Speaker 1: at the four or five months in the building to 1740 01:21:54,200 --> 01:21:57,280 Speaker 1: try and be great at something as a team, um 1741 01:21:57,640 --> 01:22:00,320 Speaker 1: and and they fall in love with the journey. The 1742 01:22:00,600 --> 01:22:04,360 Speaker 1: practice is, the bus rides, the team meals, everything like that. 1743 01:22:04,439 --> 01:22:05,880 Speaker 1: You better fall in love with the journey because we're 1744 01:22:05,880 --> 01:22:09,760 Speaker 1: all probably gonna fall short. You know you saying that 1745 01:22:09,880 --> 01:22:12,559 Speaker 1: about them makes me feel that way, even about you, 1746 01:22:12,600 --> 01:22:14,920 Speaker 1: because I was talking to those guys once we hung 1747 01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:16,719 Speaker 1: up from the call when you were on the show 1748 01:22:16,720 --> 01:22:19,120 Speaker 1: with me today, and they were like, Dann, that guy 1749 01:22:19,160 --> 01:22:20,360 Speaker 1: just goes. I was like, I thought a reason I 1750 01:22:20,439 --> 01:22:21,600 Speaker 1: hired him, Like I don't know how good he was. 1751 01:22:21,640 --> 01:22:24,400 Speaker 1: I had no idea. I just see somebody who a 1752 01:22:24,439 --> 01:22:27,320 Speaker 1: little bit reminds me of me. It was like, I'm 1753 01:22:27,320 --> 01:22:29,720 Speaker 1: just gonna do it. It doesn't matter. I'm just I 1754 01:22:29,840 --> 01:22:32,400 Speaker 1: built up. I'm gonna go and just do it, and 1755 01:22:32,479 --> 01:22:33,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna work as hard as I can I'm gonna 1756 01:22:33,920 --> 01:22:36,040 Speaker 1: let the chips fall where they may make some strategic decisions, 1757 01:22:36,200 --> 01:22:38,040 Speaker 1: but other than that, I don't have any help. So 1758 01:22:38,200 --> 01:22:39,840 Speaker 1: let's just try to kick life in the balls and 1759 01:22:39,840 --> 01:22:41,760 Speaker 1: see what happens. And so the same thing to you, 1760 01:22:41,800 --> 01:22:44,240 Speaker 1: because you're gonna look back in a few years and god, 1761 01:22:44,240 --> 01:22:46,160 Speaker 1: I cannot believe when I was driving to all those places, 1762 01:22:46,160 --> 01:22:47,720 Speaker 1: Like you can't believe it. But it's gonna be so 1763 01:22:47,800 --> 01:22:51,160 Speaker 1: foggy because there'll be like an old version of you 1764 01:22:51,200 --> 01:22:52,960 Speaker 1: that got you to the new version of you, because 1765 01:22:52,960 --> 01:22:54,800 Speaker 1: you're definitely gonna get there, because you're not gonna stop 1766 01:22:54,880 --> 01:22:56,880 Speaker 1: until you get there, right. I mean, you may not 1767 01:22:56,920 --> 01:23:00,599 Speaker 1: get right now, but there isn't a plan be if 1768 01:23:00,600 --> 01:23:04,240 Speaker 1: you don't have one. And with you, I just see 1769 01:23:04,280 --> 01:23:07,640 Speaker 1: that grind and that grit and I respect it. And 1770 01:23:07,680 --> 01:23:09,640 Speaker 1: I was telling those guys, I was like, I got 1771 01:23:09,760 --> 01:23:12,960 Speaker 1: lucky he was good at talking because I was hiring 1772 01:23:13,040 --> 01:23:14,960 Speaker 1: him just because of you know how hard he's going. 1773 01:23:15,080 --> 01:23:17,880 Speaker 1: He's terrible at microphones. But absolutely, you're not an engineer. 1774 01:23:17,960 --> 01:23:20,080 Speaker 1: One thing the thing he doesn't do is engineer Like 1775 01:23:20,120 --> 01:23:21,519 Speaker 1: it's a it's a literally you plug it into the 1776 01:23:21,520 --> 01:23:23,320 Speaker 1: side of a computer and push on and then you go. 1777 01:23:23,600 --> 01:23:25,920 Speaker 1: But for some reason he couldn't I don't know what's wrong, 1778 01:23:26,720 --> 01:23:30,200 Speaker 1: couldn't spell on. It was a whole situation. So now, dude, 1779 01:23:30,439 --> 01:23:32,880 Speaker 1: proud of you, same way that Eddie was talking about me. 1780 01:23:32,920 --> 01:23:36,519 Speaker 1: It's just like keep pushing. It sucks right now, but man, 1781 01:23:36,560 --> 01:23:37,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna be so happy you did it and so 1782 01:23:37,720 --> 01:23:39,840 Speaker 1: proud of yourself later once you get it going. Does 1783 01:23:39,880 --> 01:23:43,120 Speaker 1: this inspire you to what is it inspire you to do? 1784 01:23:43,400 --> 01:23:46,960 Speaker 1: Like to do this, to do to be a coach, 1785 01:23:47,360 --> 01:23:51,000 Speaker 1: to do like what's what is it? Um? I would 1786 01:23:51,040 --> 01:23:53,720 Speaker 1: say definitely something like this. My favorite part of it 1787 01:23:53,760 --> 01:23:56,040 Speaker 1: is the people interaction. I know it seems crazy me, 1788 01:23:56,120 --> 01:23:59,240 Speaker 1: like responding to someone's random DM, like yeah, absolutely, I'll 1789 01:23:59,240 --> 01:24:02,280 Speaker 1: watch respond it's going to their home and sleeping. Inde, 1790 01:24:04,280 --> 01:24:06,960 Speaker 1: let's not act like it's you responding on a DM. 1791 01:24:07,120 --> 01:24:09,120 Speaker 1: It's you getting naked and going I will sleep near 1792 01:24:09,160 --> 01:24:13,200 Speaker 1: you and you have full access to everything. Go ahead, okay, okay, um. 1793 01:24:13,240 --> 01:24:16,080 Speaker 1: But I love the people interaction of everything, just hearing 1794 01:24:16,120 --> 01:24:18,960 Speaker 1: their stories. Whoever it is I've interacted with, whether it 1795 01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:22,439 Speaker 1: be a player's parent, whether it be a super fan 1796 01:24:22,560 --> 01:24:25,519 Speaker 1: of a team, a college student. I just love the 1797 01:24:25,600 --> 01:24:29,840 Speaker 1: human interaction. So I want to convince someone um and 1798 01:24:29,960 --> 01:24:32,080 Speaker 1: perhaps it's just tweeting out, hey, who wants to be 1799 01:24:32,120 --> 01:24:35,840 Speaker 1: my camera guy to come and record, because the interactions 1800 01:24:35,840 --> 01:24:38,800 Speaker 1: that I have with others at these colleges are so 1801 01:24:38,920 --> 01:24:41,519 Speaker 1: much better than the highlights that I'm showing. And I 1802 01:24:41,520 --> 01:24:44,599 Speaker 1: can't video these interactions with people without being genuine in 1803 01:24:44,640 --> 01:24:49,320 Speaker 1: the momentum. So I that's my next goal is convincing 1804 01:24:49,400 --> 01:24:54,439 Speaker 1: someone to um, I guess be my videographer and doing 1805 01:24:54,479 --> 01:24:57,479 Speaker 1: this again next year because I think there's another part 1806 01:24:57,560 --> 01:24:59,519 Speaker 1: of the story that I haven't been able to tell yet. 1807 01:24:59,560 --> 01:25:01,839 Speaker 1: I'm trying to do it in the riding the blog's 1808 01:25:01,880 --> 01:25:04,160 Speaker 1: going up, But there's another part of the story that's 1809 01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:07,240 Speaker 1: so much better than what I'm showing on my phone. Cool, 1810 01:25:07,920 --> 01:25:09,679 Speaker 1: what are you gonna do when it's not basketball season? 1811 01:25:11,640 --> 01:25:14,160 Speaker 1: Get back in sales? Probably if I don't get hired 1812 01:25:14,160 --> 01:25:16,280 Speaker 1: by anybody in the next month, get back in sales. 1813 01:25:16,360 --> 01:25:17,920 Speaker 1: Let's say you do that. Let's say you get hired 1814 01:25:17,920 --> 01:25:20,360 Speaker 1: by somebody in the next month, but they only are like, yeah, 1815 01:25:20,400 --> 01:25:22,880 Speaker 1: we'd love to hire you for basketball season, or what 1816 01:25:22,960 --> 01:25:25,760 Speaker 1: can you do when it's not basketball season? Because it's 1817 01:25:25,760 --> 01:25:27,120 Speaker 1: gonna be tough for somebody to pay you a bunch 1818 01:25:27,120 --> 01:25:31,400 Speaker 1: of money for just six months of the year. Absolutely, 1819 01:25:31,680 --> 01:25:34,760 Speaker 1: I would love to transitioning cover golf for the other 1820 01:25:34,800 --> 01:25:37,559 Speaker 1: six months. That'd be ideal. I mean, the second that 1821 01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:41,160 Speaker 1: college basketball ends, you've got the Masters, following after that 1822 01:25:41,280 --> 01:25:43,960 Speaker 1: the four Majors, the playoffs, and then boom, I'd get 1823 01:25:43,960 --> 01:25:47,200 Speaker 1: a month about to prep for college basketball upcoming. But 1824 01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:52,040 Speaker 1: we only send her the Corn Ferry tournaments that yes 1825 01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:54,599 Speaker 1: at Corn Ferry or Division two golf tournaments, and that's 1826 01:25:54,640 --> 01:25:58,960 Speaker 1: it and nothing else. Kevin final thoughts, Oh where do 1827 01:25:59,080 --> 01:26:03,479 Speaker 1: you go? He's crying there? All I see is like 1828 01:26:03,479 --> 01:26:07,080 Speaker 1: a board blinking. He's probably trying to fix my terrible audio. 1829 01:26:07,439 --> 01:26:10,599 Speaker 1: Yeah there, headphones back on, you go, dude. I want 1830 01:26:10,640 --> 01:26:12,639 Speaker 1: to go check something to make sure before we stop here, 1831 01:26:13,760 --> 01:26:16,840 Speaker 1: and by check something that can mean a lot of things. 1832 01:26:18,439 --> 01:26:21,400 Speaker 1: Nobody's house, No, the audio that we already had from 1833 01:26:21,439 --> 01:26:22,840 Speaker 1: the other day, and make sure the ends and now 1834 01:26:22,840 --> 01:26:24,479 Speaker 1: it's were all good. Just make sure we all we're 1835 01:26:24,479 --> 01:26:27,000 Speaker 1: all good here on the on the podcast. Yeah yeah, 1836 01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:29,080 Speaker 1: so you we're good though, yeah, yeah, yeah, we're good. 1837 01:26:29,520 --> 01:26:31,880 Speaker 1: All right. Well, Coleman just cried and told us that 1838 01:26:32,400 --> 01:26:35,720 Speaker 1: he really wanted to dance, So you missed that. What 1839 01:26:35,800 --> 01:26:38,519 Speaker 1: are your final dance? Yeah? Well he said, I was like, 1840 01:26:38,560 --> 01:26:39,439 Speaker 1: what do you want to do with your life? And 1841 01:26:39,479 --> 01:26:40,840 Speaker 1: you got all emotional, said I think I just wanted 1842 01:26:40,880 --> 01:26:44,080 Speaker 1: to dance. And then then we went to Passion of Mine. 1843 01:26:44,120 --> 01:26:47,160 Speaker 1: I haven't you weren't there? Yeah, yeah, yeah, sorry about that, 1844 01:26:47,240 --> 01:26:48,960 Speaker 1: Sorry about that. Well, you guys are getting a little 1845 01:26:49,000 --> 01:26:50,320 Speaker 1: deep over here, but I'm gonna change it up a 1846 01:26:50,360 --> 01:26:53,080 Speaker 1: little bit talking more golf. You know, Eddie and I 1847 01:26:53,120 --> 01:26:55,599 Speaker 1: went today, like we said, and I had something happened today, 1848 01:26:55,760 --> 01:26:57,400 Speaker 1: and I don't know if it's ever happened to you guys. 1849 01:26:57,400 --> 01:26:59,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. If I just thought weightlifting, maybe Eddie said, 1850 01:27:00,240 --> 01:27:02,400 Speaker 1: I won't do it. Hit the fore iron, and the 1851 01:27:02,479 --> 01:27:04,559 Speaker 1: head came off of the fore iron, off of the tea, 1852 01:27:04,680 --> 01:27:07,200 Speaker 1: and it probably wouldn't what fifty yards. That's not because 1853 01:27:07,240 --> 01:27:08,960 Speaker 1: you lift weights or are strong. It's because those are 1854 01:27:09,040 --> 01:27:11,240 Speaker 1: Eddie's backup clubs, and they're old and we're chief. They 1855 01:27:11,240 --> 01:27:13,240 Speaker 1: are from like two thousand and three. I don't know, 1856 01:27:13,360 --> 01:27:16,120 Speaker 1: Eddie said, dude, I've never seen that before. Dude, the 1857 01:27:16,120 --> 01:27:18,360 Speaker 1: club had went further than the ball. It was crazy. 1858 01:27:18,680 --> 01:27:21,639 Speaker 1: Oh that's why he didn't keep his score. Yeah, yeah, 1859 01:27:21,680 --> 01:27:23,040 Speaker 1: when does that happen? I was like, it's gonna be, 1860 01:27:23,080 --> 01:27:25,280 Speaker 1: you know, a little different day. Let's let's keep the 1861 01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:27,639 Speaker 1: scorecard to you guys. What he's not mentioning the bones 1862 01:27:27,760 --> 01:27:30,120 Speaker 1: they're yeah, like they're my clubs. And he hasn't said 1863 01:27:30,160 --> 01:27:32,360 Speaker 1: once like, hey man, dude, should I pay you for that, 1864 01:27:32,479 --> 01:27:35,880 Speaker 1: like or whatever? The broken wind? I would say no, 1865 01:27:35,920 --> 01:27:40,320 Speaker 1: but he hasn't even offered. That's that's a good point. Um. 1866 01:27:40,439 --> 01:27:42,000 Speaker 1: We were talking and I give my five. A couple 1867 01:27:42,000 --> 01:27:44,439 Speaker 1: of final thoughts. We were talking about Kevin running a forty. 1868 01:27:44,960 --> 01:27:48,000 Speaker 1: Kevin thinks he can break five, which I don't. We're 1869 01:27:48,000 --> 01:27:50,200 Speaker 1: gonna go a hundred bucks against each other. But the 1870 01:27:50,280 --> 01:27:55,479 Speaker 1: combine started yesterday, our Wednesday, whatever days to this, start 1871 01:27:55,479 --> 01:27:58,880 Speaker 1: on Wednesday, and on Thursday, the big men, the defensive lineman, 1872 01:27:58,920 --> 01:28:01,920 Speaker 1: they had their day where they were running and lifting 1873 01:28:01,920 --> 01:28:04,880 Speaker 1: and jumping, and so here you go. The big Man 1874 01:28:04,960 --> 01:28:06,840 Speaker 1: opened the workout portion of the NFL. This is from 1875 01:28:07,000 --> 01:28:11,600 Speaker 1: ESPN in Lucas Oil Stadium, Innneapolis. The University of Pittsburgh's 1876 01:28:11,680 --> 01:28:17,200 Speaker 1: Elijah Cancy. He's two hundred and eighty something pounds had 1877 01:28:17,240 --> 01:28:19,880 Speaker 1: a four point six official time in the forty yard dash, 1878 01:28:19,960 --> 01:28:22,200 Speaker 1: the fastest time by defensive tackle with the combines, it's 1879 01:28:22,240 --> 01:28:28,000 Speaker 1: two thousand and six two hit a four point six 1880 01:28:28,360 --> 01:28:30,639 Speaker 1: for a guy that big, How do you even get 1881 01:28:30,680 --> 01:28:33,560 Speaker 1: it going? Like even like an eighteen wheeler Because I 1882 01:28:33,560 --> 01:28:35,439 Speaker 1: had a cdo for a while when I was doing 1883 01:28:35,439 --> 01:28:37,880 Speaker 1: my TV show. You can't just hit the gas and 1884 01:28:37,920 --> 01:28:43,360 Speaker 1: it goes fifty. It's like a role. It takes forever. 1885 01:28:44,040 --> 01:28:47,520 Speaker 1: And I would compare these defensive linemen to those eighteen wheelers. 1886 01:28:47,520 --> 01:28:49,360 Speaker 1: How this guy, this big can run a four to 1887 01:28:49,479 --> 01:28:52,200 Speaker 1: six seven and then think about that and all the concussions. 1888 01:28:52,200 --> 01:28:54,400 Speaker 1: No wonder Howay's getting concussions. No wonder two has got 1889 01:28:54,400 --> 01:28:56,439 Speaker 1: eighty four concussions. When somebody that big hits you go 1890 01:28:56,479 --> 01:28:58,559 Speaker 1: on that fast, it's gonna hurt, It's gonna be bad 1891 01:28:58,600 --> 01:29:01,639 Speaker 1: for you. But that's pretty crazy. The guy's getting bigger 1892 01:29:02,240 --> 01:29:06,160 Speaker 1: and stronger. And I really didn't understand the impact that 1893 01:29:06,160 --> 01:29:07,840 Speaker 1: somebody that big would have until I got to know. 1894 01:29:07,920 --> 01:29:10,760 Speaker 1: DeMarcus Ware who played for the Cowboys, is in the 1895 01:29:10,760 --> 01:29:12,640 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame now or is going in? He just 1896 01:29:12,680 --> 01:29:17,120 Speaker 1: got invited. Just inductions coming up soon. So when I 1897 01:29:17,120 --> 01:29:20,040 Speaker 1: would be with him and he's massive and he can 1898 01:29:20,160 --> 01:29:22,519 Speaker 1: move like a cat, I was thinking I would not 1899 01:29:22,560 --> 01:29:25,519 Speaker 1: want to be a quarterback with this guy. He's so tall, 1900 01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:29,000 Speaker 1: so thick, so strong. If he got up to seventy 1901 01:29:29,479 --> 01:29:31,680 Speaker 1: speed and lowered his head, you're dead if he gets 1902 01:29:31,680 --> 01:29:35,719 Speaker 1: a clear shot. So these guys, I mean to take 1903 01:29:35,920 --> 01:29:38,800 Speaker 1: shots from guys like that is crazy. That's my first one. 1904 01:29:39,520 --> 01:29:42,120 Speaker 1: My second one is I'm going to the Arkansas Kentucky 1905 01:29:42,200 --> 01:29:46,840 Speaker 1: game on Saturday. Oh the game's that Oh, I'm I'm 1906 01:29:46,840 --> 01:29:49,240 Speaker 1: on Pacific time here, right, So the games that won, 1907 01:29:51,160 --> 01:29:54,240 Speaker 1: so it's a day game, which is fine. We have 1908 01:29:54,320 --> 01:29:56,960 Speaker 1: to win this game, and Kentucky's been playing really well. 1909 01:29:57,479 --> 01:29:58,559 Speaker 1: We have to win this game. I don't know if 1910 01:29:58,560 --> 01:30:00,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna make the ncbab A tournament if we don't 1911 01:30:00,240 --> 01:30:02,240 Speaker 1: win this game or win a couple in the SEC tournament. 1912 01:30:02,439 --> 01:30:07,000 Speaker 1: Like our net is good enough and we should be fine, 1913 01:30:08,080 --> 01:30:11,160 Speaker 1: but it has not been a great situation in the 1914 01:30:11,200 --> 01:30:12,679 Speaker 1: last couple of games, and we've had really hard teams 1915 01:30:12,680 --> 01:30:15,080 Speaker 1: to play. Play Tennessee in Alabama back to back Tennessee 1916 01:30:15,080 --> 01:30:17,360 Speaker 1: game was not great at all. But we gotta win 1917 01:30:17,400 --> 01:30:18,800 Speaker 1: this one. In Kentucky. I'm gonna be there and it's 1918 01:30:18,800 --> 01:30:21,800 Speaker 1: a white out and I'm being all white, and I 1919 01:30:21,840 --> 01:30:24,360 Speaker 1: got my big hat, my big hat, really big hat 1920 01:30:24,560 --> 01:30:26,800 Speaker 1: I was gonna wear. It's a white out, you are 1921 01:30:26,920 --> 01:30:29,439 Speaker 1: You're wearing the white two. Why don't you wear red? 1922 01:30:31,120 --> 01:30:34,000 Speaker 1: That's not what a white out is, Eddie is the 1923 01:30:33,400 --> 01:30:35,680 Speaker 1: white the white outs. Everybody wears white, so the whole 1924 01:30:35,680 --> 01:30:39,760 Speaker 1: place looks like it's yeah, that's for Kentucky.

I love it. 1931 01:30:53,840 --> 01:30:55,800 Speaker 1: It would be like taking a regular hat and putting 1932 01:30:55,800 --> 01:30:57,880 Speaker 1: it on a g I Joe. It's basically what it 1933 01:30:57,880 --> 01:31:01,360 Speaker 1: looks like. And I'll tell my wife is I'm gonna 1934 01:31:01,360 --> 01:31:03,240 Speaker 1: wear this in the game, And she says, do you 1935 01:31:03,320 --> 01:31:06,640 Speaker 1: not get enough attention already? I was like, what do 1936 01:31:06,640 --> 01:31:08,600 Speaker 1: you mean? She goes, first of all, do you not 1937 01:31:08,640 --> 01:31:10,599 Speaker 1: get enough attention regularly? We go places all the time, 1938 01:31:10,640 --> 01:31:13,440 Speaker 1: everybody wants to stop and talk and take pictures, and 1939 01:31:13,479 --> 01:31:15,479 Speaker 1: she's being funny about it. She's like, and then of 1940 01:31:15,479 --> 01:31:17,840 Speaker 1: course when you go back to the Arkansas Games, it's 1941 01:31:17,880 --> 01:31:22,600 Speaker 1: just it's like the prodigal son has returned and she 1942 01:31:22,640 --> 01:31:25,040 Speaker 1: goes and all that, You're still gonna wear a big 1943 01:31:25,080 --> 01:31:27,880 Speaker 1: stupid hat at so everybody stared at you, and I 1944 01:31:27,960 --> 01:31:32,639 Speaker 1: was like, I'd like to yes, so right, you gotta 1945 01:31:32,720 --> 01:31:35,519 Speaker 1: do it. Yeah, But she has some great points. She 1946 01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:37,720 Speaker 1: does am I just doing it for more attention? Or 1947 01:31:37,760 --> 01:31:39,559 Speaker 1: am I doing it for the laughs? I think it's 1948 01:31:39,600 --> 01:31:42,160 Speaker 1: for the laughs. Why did the guys wear? I don't Coleman, 1949 01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:44,800 Speaker 1: maybe can help me some team, was it Kansas? Maybe 1950 01:31:44,800 --> 01:31:47,479 Speaker 1: they're wearing thongs, like like there were like five dudes 1951 01:31:47,479 --> 01:31:51,439 Speaker 1: in the front wearing nothing but like bathing suits, speedos, 1952 01:31:51,439 --> 01:31:54,800 Speaker 1: Like why do they do it? Not for attention? Well, 1953 01:31:54,840 --> 01:31:57,320 Speaker 1: I think it's for the combo attention and laughs. Those 1954 01:31:57,360 --> 01:32:00,600 Speaker 1: two can kind of coexist. And her point is you 1955 01:32:00,600 --> 01:32:03,840 Speaker 1: get attention to laughs every day all day. And so 1956 01:32:04,120 --> 01:32:06,880 Speaker 1: if we're gonna go have okay, if I'm gonna take 1957 01:32:06,880 --> 01:32:09,719 Speaker 1: a date, because here's the thing, the promiser I didn't 1958 01:32:09,720 --> 01:32:11,200 Speaker 1: realize we're going to this game. I got it mixed 1959 01:32:11,240 --> 01:32:12,760 Speaker 1: up because I was gonna take Eddie with me. Yeah, 1960 01:32:12,800 --> 01:32:15,760 Speaker 1: I promise you, Eddie got movie big. I felt bad 1961 01:32:15,760 --> 01:32:17,600 Speaker 1: telling him this. I promise there we go on this 1962 01:32:17,720 --> 01:32:19,479 Speaker 1: date like a double date, and then it turns out 1963 01:32:19,520 --> 01:32:21,000 Speaker 1: I'm just like, let's just grab those same friends. We'll 1964 01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:24,120 Speaker 1: just take him to a basketball game. And that's the 1965 01:32:24,120 --> 01:32:26,800 Speaker 1: only way I was able to pull it off. Um. So, 1966 01:32:27,360 --> 01:32:28,920 Speaker 1: I don't know if I whear the hat, but i'd 1967 01:32:28,960 --> 01:32:31,200 Speaker 1: love to. It's massive and it's hilarious.
