Uh, I don't know. I mean, like, like 64 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 6: I I would say the Ty Simpson hysteria over the 65 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 6: last few days is a little out of control, you know, 66 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 6: But then I would go back to like the little 67 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 6: things you see out of the pro days are kind 68 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 6: of crazy too. Like I saw someone taking two still 69 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 6: shots of it was like Reuben Bain and his bend's 70 00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 6: going around a bag and then RVL Reese and Rees 71 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 6: who like basically hasn't really played defensive end yet but 72 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 6: projects to play there a lot more in the pros, 73 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 6: like he's played some in college but not a ton 74 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 6: and somebody tweeting I think it was like I can't 75 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 6: like it was something along the lines of, like, you 76 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 6: can't spend a top nine pick on this guy, which 77 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 6: I don't know why. It wasn't top five or top ten, 78 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 6: it was specifically top nine pick on this guy. So 79 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 6: that was that was a little weird. So yeah, but 80 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 6: we're still we're still just getting going right. We've got 81 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 6: we've got we got a few weeks to go here, 82 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 6: so I'm sure there'll be plenty more contenders emerging. 83 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 9: Why would they say that, though, I'm sorry to I 84 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 9: just go ahead. 85 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 8: Why would they say that? Though? 86 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 9: Like why like, okay, bang Ban looked good in his his. 87 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 8: Workout, He looked really good. We talked about that. 88 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 9: But why would you say r bel Reese isn't a 89 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,160 Speaker 9: top like, well, he protected to. 90 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 6: Top five because he wasn't bending around the bag and 91 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,159 Speaker 6: it was a still shot, which was the craziest part 92 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 6: of it, you know what I mean. It was like 93 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 6: it wasn't even video, it was a still shot. And yeah, 94 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 6: so apparently he can't bend well enough to be a 95 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 6: good defensive end. So that that one bag drill he 96 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 6: was going through is an indication that he's never going 97 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 6: to make it the position in the pros. 98 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 9: Some people, okay, all right, Yeah, he is a freak athlete, 99 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 9: by the way. 100 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 1: So yeah, he would not would not be betting against him. 101 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 1: I saw an interesting article and something that's kind of 102 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: flown under the radar. We've talked to you about this before, Albert, 103 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 1: but the NFL Referees Association apparently they've walked away from 104 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: the two day bargaining session they had because they realized 105 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: the NFL had sent a bunch of guys who actually 106 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: didn't have authority to make any of the decisions that 107 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: they're negotiating. I mean, I don't know if it's funny, 108 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: if it's savvy moved by the NFL just to set 109 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: a bunch of people. 110 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 7: Who I mean, I'm not sure where to even ask 111 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 7: the question outside. 112 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 6: Of you guys have rules proposal for that they're going 113 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 6: to vote on next week on this no go ahead, okay, 114 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 6: So the rules proposal on this is that they would 115 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 6: allow for New York to basically overrule all kinds of calls, 116 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 6: you know, have oversight the event in the event that 117 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 6: there's a out. 118 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 4: Like they're treating they're treating like student driver. They're treating 119 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 4: like student drivers. If it gets out of it's out 120 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 4: of hand, I'll grab the steering wheel. 121 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's like that wave. 122 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 6: Remember they would when you were when you were drivers 123 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 6: that do you remember the guy who was sitting shotgun 124 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,039 Speaker 6: would have a break? You guys remember that it was 125 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,039 Speaker 6: a kind of jarring if he hit that brake, you know, 126 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 6: Like yeah, Like so, I guess that's what the NFL 127 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 6: is putting in. They're putting in the break. They're gonna 128 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 6: be sitting Shotgun in New York with the with their 129 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 6: foot on a brake. 130 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 7: Well, maybe that's not the worst idea. 131 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: I would actually go for us saying, and we actually 132 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 1: did talk about this probably I don't know, a few 133 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 1: weeks ago when it came out that if this is 134 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: the step that they're taking, or this is what leads 135 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: to the NFL implementing replay in a bigger fashion, then 136 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 1: I'm kind. 137 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 7: Of okay with it. 138 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: I just for a league that's gotten involved with a 139 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: lot of gambling partners and sponsorships that's only going to 140 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: get more because Calshi and Polymarket are such deep pockets 141 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: with the prediction markets. The fact that they just have 142 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 1: no desire to uphold the integrity of the game by 143 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 1: actually having someone legitimately go negotiate terms that can make 144 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: that decision for the NFL is wild. I mean, is 145 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: that where we're at, Like they just don't take officiating 146 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: seriously at all the league. 147 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean I think, well, I think it's I 148 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 6: think it's bigger than that though, Brady, Like, I just 149 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 6: think it's like this, there's no better way to put it. 150 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 6: There's a private equity mindset to the way the NFL's 151 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 6: run now. And you know, I've heard teams head counts 152 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 6: on coaching staff stuff like that, like where you just 153 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 6: kind of like and you hear all the buzz terms too, 154 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 6: right like, and you know, I think what you find 155 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 6: out like about a lot of the owners is what 156 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 6: they're truly competitive about. And what they're truly competitive about 157 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 6: is I mean, it's the business stuff. It's not wins 158 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 6: and losses on the field for a lot of these guys. 159 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 6: But the guys that are pointing and making fun of 160 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 6: is the guys who aren't doing good business with their teams. 161 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 6: You know, they are making fun of the teams that 162 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 6: are losing, you know, and and and so like I 163 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 6: think when you have that mindset, it sort of begins 164 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 6: to pervade everything. And now it's not even about like 165 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 6: it's about winning every deal, you know what I mean, 166 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 6: it's about it and it's about like how can we 167 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 6: find a quarter out of every couch? You know, And 168 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 6: it's you know, sort of an and in Roger Goodell's defense, 169 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,440 Speaker 6: it's it's sort of the way they panted this job 170 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 6: to him when they gave it to him twenty years go, 171 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 6: which was all right, Roger, like you're in this now, 172 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 6: you and and you're going to get us to twenty 173 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 6: five billion dollars in annual revenue. And it seemed like 174 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 6: a pie in the sky thing all those years ago, 175 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 6: but it actually is attainable now. And you know, so 176 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 6: much of it has been just a singular focus on 177 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 6: winning every deal and maximizing every single, every single contract 178 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 6: that they do. And you know, I think it's what 179 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 6: these guys are truly competitive about. And so you know, 180 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 6: like a big part of that is, you know, it's 181 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 6: it's the old text tram line, and I it's it's 182 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 6: a crude way to put it, but it does explain 183 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 6: kind of where these guys are with a lot of 184 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 6: these things. And for people who aren't familiar, text Stram 185 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 6: with the president of the Cowboys, a pioneer, you know. 186 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 6: And and and in the way the NFL does business, 187 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,719 Speaker 6: And there was a labor negotiation I think it was 188 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 6: in the early eighties where tech Stram was nosed to 189 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 6: nose with Gene Upshaw, who is the president the NFLPA, 190 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 6: and he basically said to him, y'all, boys, don't understand. 191 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 6: We're the ranchers and you're the cattle. And like that's 192 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 6: just the way they approach these things, and it always 193 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 6: has been, you know. And so I think that they 194 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 6: look at the referees and they say, you guys are replaceable, 195 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:21,319 Speaker 6: and we remember what a disaster that was in twenty twelve, 196 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 6: and so they're going to find ways to try to, 197 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 6: you know, take that piece of leverage away from them, 198 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 6: because the referees leverage right now is well, you know 199 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 6: it's going to be disaster if you take us off 200 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 6: the field. Well, all right, well we'll do what we 201 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 6: need to do to make that less of a disaster. 202 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 6: So we have more leverage so we can squeeze you 203 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 6: so we can do the best deal for us, and 204 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 6: negotiating against you. 205 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 9: That's still quite the mess in the making. I mean, 206 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 9: let's be let's be clear. I agree they're going to 207 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 9: have to deal with a lot of crazy scrutiny. Like 208 00:10:55,520 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 9: we just talked about earlier, Abe, how much money these 209 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:07,959 Speaker 9: these these networks are paying for the National Football League content. 210 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 9: You can't just you can't just throw that out there 211 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 9: casually and think that that's going to buy you leverage 212 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 9: or gain you leverage as the as the one that's 213 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 9: ranching the cattle. It doesn't. It's not that simple. With 214 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 9: all the money that's involved. How do they justify that? 215 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 6: I mean, I think the justification is I mean, look 216 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 6: like I would argue that I think seventeen games and 217 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,559 Speaker 6: like all the midweek games is actually has affected the product. 218 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 6: I think you see you can visibly see teams are 219 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 6: more beat up at the end of the year. I 220 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 6: think you see you have more teams that are dragging 221 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 6: towards the finish line. I think you see like a 222 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 6: lower quality of game at the end of the regular season. 223 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 6: No teams can pick it up in the playoffs. But 224 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 6: I think at the end of the regular season you 225 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,079 Speaker 6: see like some lower quality games as a result of 226 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 6: all of this. But what they've figured out, and I 227 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 6: think this is like kind of the guy I thing 228 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 6: principle is you know, I'll use another analogy where the 229 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 6: crackheads and they're the dealers, we're. 230 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 8: Going to put football. 231 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 6: We're going to put football on TV regard I mean, 232 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 6: we are going to I mean, And that's the thing 233 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 6: they figure that out, is like, even if the product 234 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 6: is a little bit less, we are going to tune in. Right, 235 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 6: So if they can find different ways to to get 236 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 6: here's what I'm what I'm saying. Here's what I'm saying. 237 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 6: All right, they figured out that if they can create 238 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 6: more ways to make profit, they to create more inventory. Right, Like, 239 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 6: if they can find more pieces of product to sell, 240 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 6: even if it diminishes the quality of the product, We're 241 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 6: going to keep buying the product. So it almost doesn't 242 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 6: matter if the product is diminished, you know. And so 243 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 6: like I think that applies here too, is you know, 244 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 6: is that they know that we're going to bitch and 245 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,439 Speaker 6: own and at the same time, we're going to tune in, 246 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 6: you know, And so like, that's the that's the hard 247 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 6: reality of it. I mean, I'm not you know, like, 248 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 6: I'm not going to sit here and tell you that. 249 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 6: Well I can't because it's my job. But I'm not 250 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 6: going to sit here and tell you that I would 251 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,680 Speaker 6: tune out because I would be upset about it. But 252 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 6: I can't say I would tune out. And that's where 253 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 6: they have everybody, you know. And so here's here's the 254 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 6: flip side of it, the flip side of it that 255 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,679 Speaker 6: I think is really interesting. It's different from the players, 256 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 6: and this is where the referees have some leverages. Most 257 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 6: of these guys are pretty successful in what they do 258 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 6: outside of refereeing, right, Like, so most of these guys 259 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 6: refereeing NFL games is not their primary source of income, 260 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,959 Speaker 6: right Their doctors, they're lawyers, and so while they enjoy it, 261 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,079 Speaker 6: and they wouldn't do it if they didn't enjoy it, 262 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 6: and it's a good amount of extra money for them, 263 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,719 Speaker 6: a lot of these guys can actually withstand a work stoppage, 264 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 6: right because you're not taking their livelihood away the way 265 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 6: you are you would be a football player. If you're 266 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 6: telling them that they can't go out and play football 267 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 6: on Sunday. So that's the referees leverage point. The other 268 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 6: piece that I think people don't understand is really interesting. 269 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 6: So the NFL, to prepare for all of this, has 270 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 6: gone and basically sought out Division two and Division three officials, 271 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 6: and they've told Division two and Division three conferences that 272 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 6: they have partnerships with to be ready and in the fall. 273 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 6: And the case that this does, you know, become a 274 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 6: work stoppage, I think a lot of fans think like 275 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 6: that they can just go and pluck from the big 276 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 6: ten in the SEC. It doesn't work that way. I mean, 277 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 6: we're talking about referees, you know, way down the line 278 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 6: that are going to be officiing NFL games if it 279 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 6: comes to that. And here I think was this, to 280 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 6: me was the most interesting fact about twenty twelve, Right 281 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 6: looking back at what a disaster that was. Did you 282 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 6: guys know that no official who was on the field 283 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 6: for the replacement games the twenty twelve no official who 284 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 6: worked those games ever officiated in an NFL game Again, 285 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 6: isn't that amazing? Like one that year? 286 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 8: Do you think there will be retaliation? 287 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,720 Speaker 9: Like that's an interesting thing, Like I get that that 288 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 9: was the replacements, but to think that if you put 289 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 9: the National Football League in this type of position that 290 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 9: we're discussing right now, would there be maybe, I mean, 291 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 9: there's got to be hard feelings towards what's taking place. 292 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 9: I granted, you know, unions negotiations, they're negotiations, But would 293 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 9: there be some type of retaliation like what we see 294 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 9: a different group of referees being ushered into the National 295 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 9: Football League If there is indeed another you know lockout 296 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 9: with the refs, well, I mean starting reps. 297 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 6: Again again, Like I just I don't you can't pluck 298 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 6: from the big ten in the SEC though, you know, 299 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 6: you can't pluck from the ACC because I mean those 300 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 6: guys that are already into their seasons, and those guys 301 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 6: probably as just a matter of principle, wouldn't cross over 302 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 6: the ticket line anyway, you know. So that's why you 303 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 6: have to dig deeper, and you have to go and 304 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 6: find officials other places. And it's it's it's interesting too, 305 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 6: because you know, like all these guys are part time 306 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 6: for reasons they want to be part time, you know 307 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 6: what I mean, because they are successful in other fields. 308 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 6: And so there's that piece of it, you know, that 309 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 6: that that I think is a complicating factor versus what 310 00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 6: it is in other sports. They don't want to be 311 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 6: full time, right, Like, so if you have that piece 312 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 6: of it, there's just I mean, there's just so many 313 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 6: moving parts with it, you know, and you would think that, 314 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 6: you know, I mean, just you know when you're talking 315 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 6: from a big picture standpoint that this is this is 316 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 6: a drop in the bucket financialist from the NFL, and 317 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 6: just figure it out. But I mean, I think we 318 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,120 Speaker 6: all remember where that led us in twenty twelve, so 319 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 6: you know, you don't you don't rule anything out. And 320 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 6: the fact that the owners again are voting on this stuff, 321 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,720 Speaker 6: are essentially voting to get themselves leverage in this negotiation 322 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,440 Speaker 6: next week at the owners meetings, I think he tells 323 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 6: you where everybody's. 324 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,959 Speaker 1: At on it Just a wild situation, right, I mean, 325 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:22,440 Speaker 1: just it is. 326 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 6: But but again, like I think the guiding thing Brady 327 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 6: is like they know they have us, like they know well, 328 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 6: like they know as much of a pr mess as it 329 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,360 Speaker 6: might be for them, Like it's not going to cause 330 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 6: like a significant amount of people to stop watching, right, 331 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 6: And that's why they don't care. 332 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 4: Maybe was Carnel Tate not running the forty at his 333 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 4: pro day? Was that because Adam Schefter wasn't in attendance 334 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 4: to clock him. 335 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:56,959 Speaker 6: That's not cool. Just wondering, I mean, first Marv Albert, 336 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 6: now Adam Schefter, trying to. 337 00:17:58,840 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 5: Figure this out. 338 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 4: Why did he on the forty if there was so 339 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 4: much confusion about what was that saying out there? 340 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 6: Yeah? No, I I think I like I I would 341 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 6: say at this point, like Carnell Tape feels like he's 342 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 6: probably answered the questions he needs to answer. And in 343 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:20,399 Speaker 6: fairness to him, most guys like who run the forty 344 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 6: at the Combine don't run their pro day now, I 345 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 6: think for most people you would say, if you ran 346 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 6: a disappointing forty, and Carnell Tape did run a disappointing forty, 347 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,120 Speaker 6: I you know, I think he'd hopes that he would 348 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 6: run in the four fourst Nobody thought he was gonna 349 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 6: be a four to three or anything like that, and 350 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,160 Speaker 6: he runs in the four fives. Like guys who are 351 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 6: in those situations do sometimes double back and and and 352 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 6: run at their pro day. But you know, if if 353 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 6: he has a strong feeling that he's going to go 354 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 6: on the top half of the first round, which I'm 355 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 6: sure he does, then there probably is no reason to 356 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 6: take the risk of running another forty. You know, you 357 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 6: just stand on. I guess what some people had on 358 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 6: their stopwatches is as a high four four and what 359 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 6: the lasers had in four or five? 360 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 8: Interesting? 361 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,239 Speaker 7: Yeah, do we have time for one more? 362 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 1: Sure, Albert, I just saw a report that the NFL 363 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: and a sports book there there suit over in game 364 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 1: micro betting. Can you help me understand what exactly this is? 365 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, so I'm not familiar with the lawsuit itself, Brady, 366 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 6: that's just come across I'm assuming, but yeah, I do 367 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 6: know what this is like. This is sort of so 368 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,199 Speaker 6: like this is where the NFL feels like, and this 369 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 6: is what the NFL has felt like for a long time, 370 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 6: like they could make the most money at the live 371 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 6: betting you know, where you know you're betting on things 372 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 6: over the course of the game. You know, there's been 373 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 6: some questions about the delay on these things too, like 374 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 6: with a broadcast delay and how that could affect it. So, like, 375 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,440 Speaker 6: I know there have been a lot of like questions 376 00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 6: as to how all this works in the legal ay 377 00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,719 Speaker 6: of it and everything else. And you know, based on 378 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 6: the on on the way games are broadcasts again with 379 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 6: the delay, how does that affect it? So, I know 380 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 6: there are a ton of questions. I'm not familiar with 381 00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 6: the specific lawsuit, but but but certainly, like I think 382 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 6: doubt that's one area where I know the NFL felt 383 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 6: like they could make a lot of money. But I 384 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 6: think it's also one of the areas that's probably the 385 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:22,960 Speaker 6: hardest to believe. 386 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:25,479 Speaker 7: Yeah, so I guess the uh. 387 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 1: The suit obviously involves the UH, the NFL and and 388 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,640 Speaker 1: basically a bunch of their partners, which we are DraftKings, FanDuel, 389 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: et cetera. But and then also Genius Sports, which for 390 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: people don't know, Junior Sports is UH that's a data 391 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 1: company that kind of provides real in time data. 392 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:48,360 Speaker 7: Through the NFL. I've said this before. I'm not sure 393 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:49,159 Speaker 7: Manye people know this. 394 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 1: The NFL actually sells their live like real time feed 395 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: and a lot of those are actually housed to gambling 396 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 1: and sports books, so they can set the lines for 397 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 1: this micro in house. And what happens sometimes is obviously 398 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: they feel like they're being manipulated, and the lawsuits a 399 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 1: legend like VIP hosts who are employed by the sports 400 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 1: books are continually enticing people to wager things of that nature. 401 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 7: But is this getting to the point. 402 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 1: With gambling where it's maybe not worth it so much 403 00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 1: with these particular sports books, and they'd rather work with 404 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 1: Calshi and Polly Market that have deep pockets and it's 405 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 1: more you know, yes, no predictive markets that seem to 406 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 1: have a different. 407 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 7: Angle at all this. 408 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think we're still on the front end of 409 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 6: all this and figuring out what's okay and what's not. 410 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 6: And I think part of it, Brady, is like they, 411 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 6: the NFL and the teams have sort of taken like 412 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:45,920 Speaker 6: an all in approach where I don't know how careful 413 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,880 Speaker 6: they've been, you know, about just taking money from whoever. 414 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 6: And I think, you know, over the course of years, 415 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 6: I think we're going to learn more about this, Like 416 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 6: I know, I think in some states there's some questions 417 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 6: over whether or not they're going to continue with prop betting, 418 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 6: right because of the effect that that can have and 419 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 6: how a single player can have a can have a 420 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 6: can can can can affect a prop bet and how 421 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 6: that could wind up you know, like being and I 422 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 6: think we all know the implications there, right, like where 423 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 6: you know, a single player might be enticed to take 424 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 6: something from somebody to fulfill a prop bet. So I 425 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 6: think there there are a lot of these questions that 426 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:33,160 Speaker 6: go well beyond where we are with money lines and 427 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 6: you know, betting on on on odds and betting lines. 428 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 6: Like I think when you start to get into the 429 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 6: more granular stuff, you know, it opens up, you know, 430 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 6: a Pandora's box of questions. And I just feel like 431 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 6: with the they all approach the NFL and all the 432 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 6: other leagues too, you know, to be fair have taken 433 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 6: with this. I think there's certainly going to be like 434 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,919 Speaker 6: a sorting out process over over over the coming years 435 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 6: on like what's what's okay, what's manageable, and what's not. 436 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 4: Ab always appreciate it. We will do it again next week. 437 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 4: Enjoy the weekend and have a glass out there.

Do you want to fire off your first pick 492 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 5: or you want me to take. 493 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 8: The you could take it. 494 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,360 Speaker 9: I'll go if you don't want to go, I mean, 495 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 9: you know, I have no problem jumping out there. 496 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 4: I mean, I'm Jony Bracketts. That's what's kind of what 497 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 4: I did. So I'm gonna go with the iowahw guys 498 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 4: currently getting a point and a half on DraftKings against Nebraska. 499 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 5: There's some loyalty there, obviously. 500 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 4: Friend of the program Ben McCollum, who joined us I 501 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:04,360 Speaker 4: was a very enjoyable conversation with him. Guys, A very 502 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,159 Speaker 4: fiery guy. I had a great run at the Division 503 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,880 Speaker 4: two level. I had a great run with Drake last year, 504 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,439 Speaker 4: and now he's doing the same thing at Iowa. Iowa 505 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,400 Speaker 4: feels like a team. I know it's just a point 506 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 4: and a half, but this feels like maybe a little 507 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:20,919 Speaker 4: bit of an upset considering the early season momentum for Nebraska. 508 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 4: But I think the Hawkey's a rolling. I think the 509 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 4: win over Florida gave him some confidence. I'm gonna roll 510 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,359 Speaker 4: with our guy, Ben McCollum and the Iowa haw guys 511 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:32,640 Speaker 4: getting a point and a half later on tonight knock locks. 512 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:38,199 Speaker 9: Okay, taking I'm gonna take Arkansas over Arizona. Oh and 513 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 9: that's a having a seven and a half line right 514 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 9: there that Arizona is favored in the in the game. 515 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 9: I had I picked Arizona in my bracket, but my 516 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 9: bracket is horrible, so it doesn't even matter. I'm going 517 00:26:56,359 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 9: with Arizona Arkansas for the upset. Obviously, you know they 518 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:07,439 Speaker 9: have Cali Perry has really really set a tone with 519 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 9: the players that he's bringing in. You know, we talked 520 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 9: about Darius A. Cuff Junior getting his own shoes, So 521 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 9: that tells you how good some of the players on 522 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 9: that team is. It's a team that they shoot well 523 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 9: from the perimeter, and and that's something to look for. 524 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:30,919 Speaker 9: While Arizona is really really beastly on on getting to 525 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 9: the free throw line and being able to get rebound 526 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 9: second second shots and limiting their opponents to one shot. 527 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 8: If Arkansas can battle. 528 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:48,919 Speaker 9: Off the the Wildcats in the rebounding category, I not 529 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 9: only think that they're in good position to be able 530 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:58,399 Speaker 9: to win the game, but needless say, I think that 531 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 9: they could actually can Vincent Lee win the game, So 532 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,680 Speaker 9: obviously I don't have to say they're going to cover 533 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 9: because I'm picking them to pull the upset off over 534 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 9: the Arizona Wildcats. Wow Arkansas raising Razorbacks raising backs and 535 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 9: John Caler Perry and Darius Acuff Junior getting the win 536 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 9: against Arizona tonight. 537 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 7: Wow sticks picks. 538 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 1: And form my pick. I'm on the exact opposite of that. 539 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 1: I'm taking the Arizona Wildcats money line. 540 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 7: Yes, that's minus three seventy five for a reason, but look, 541 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 7: this is a. 542 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: Very tall, strong, physical front court and defense. They're one 543 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: of the top three defenses. 544 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 7: In the country this year. They've been in fishing on offense. 545 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: I think they know, as LeVar said, how special Darius 546 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 1: Acuff is, they will eliminate. 547 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 7: Him from this game. 548 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: At that point, I feel like, you excuse me, Arkansas, Geez, 549 00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 1: Arkansas's offense kind of falls apart, and they're gonna have 550 00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 1: a hard time scoring and being running up the score 551 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: in bunches like they've been able to do throughout the 552 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: course of the season. 553 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 7: So give me the Arizona Wildcats. 554 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 1: That's my lock and minus three seventy five to win 555 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 1: and move on in the NCAA. 556 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 7: Tournament. 557 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 2: I love it. 558 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 9: Whins wins, much like our radio relationship. 559 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 8: One of us will win, one of us will lose. 560 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think, have we had on coaches in 561 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: the past where we've I feel like we have and 562 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 1: we've tried to kind of like lean towards I don't 563 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: know if it's worked out well for us or maybe 564 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: players in the past where we've tried to, you know, 565 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 1: lean more towards them for jeremi. 566 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 8: Than they playoffs. You know, that's rude. They did. 567 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 7: It was our there's people. Yeah, maybe we shouldn't have 568 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 7: had him on. 569 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 8: We shouldn't have Who would have gotten into season? 570 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm trying to think who uh, who else would 571 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 5: be in the I don't know. 572 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 9: I know we've had some you know, it's it's kind 573 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 9: of early. Guys don't really want to be up at 574 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 9: this hour, so we don't have a very long list 575 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 9: of interviews. 576 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 7: Well, do we have all Lombardy to talk about his 577 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:24,719 Speaker 7: book and all? 578 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 5: And it went well from North Carolina last year? 579 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 8: Did it they have a program? 580 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 7: Geez? 581 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: By the way, do you see the rumors that they're 582 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 1: flying an MJ in Chapel Hill. 583 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 9: I heard he's having success is are they going to 584 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 9: interview him to be the coach. 585 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 1: Or I don't know, you know how it is. There's 586 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: wild speculation about everything and what that means. 587 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 8: But that would be a sick moved like the GM. 588 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: I think we may be the mush. I think we're 589 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: actually bad luck now that I think about it. I mean, 590 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 1: if Iowa gets beat and they're not favored, but it's 591 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: a tight spread, you know, Nebraska is barely favored, I 592 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 1: just feel like, going with that strategy front of the program, 593 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 1: we may need to pick opposite just so that they 594 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 1: actually can win. 595 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 7: Or get into the playoffs, or whatever the case may be. 596 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 7: I think we might be bad luck. 597 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 4: I do think that without even pointing it out. And 598 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:22,239 Speaker 4: by the way, all of these lines that we gave you, 599 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 4: all of these locks, these picks you can find on 600 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 4: DraftKings sportsbook, the number one sportsbook for live betting.

The crown is yours. 604 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 4: But I do think it's interesting that you guys didn't 605 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 4: even try and bet the point spread on the Arkansas 606 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 4: Arizona game, you went money line in opposite directions. 607 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 7: I think that it'll be tight. 608 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: I would have taken the points in Arkansas, but I 609 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 1: just I feel too confident and you know they're going 610 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: to fall apart at the free throw line. That's a 611 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 1: typical John Caliperry coach team. If you take away a cuff, 612 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 1: it ends up taking away the offense. We saw that 613 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 1: a lot at Kentucky. And also I just I feel 614 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 1: like there's too often times there's a reliance on talent 615 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 1: and just letting them kind of create and do their thing. 616 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 7: And I do feel like there's a there's a place 617 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 7: for that. 618 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: But again, just again going through the history of John 619 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 1: Caliberry coach teams, in particular the last four or five 620 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 1: years at Kentucky, I would say that's where Arkansas is 621 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: gonna fall victim to a loss here. 622 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 7: So I do. 623 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 1: I do think it'll be a lower scoring, tight game 624 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: because Arizona's defense and all that. But I just I 625 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 1: feel like there's there's some things that might creep back 626 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 1: up into John Caliperry's past that that could play an issue. 627 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 9: Cite that's that that Kentucky bias that's that's that's going 628 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 9: to talk. 629 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 7: He's the one what you're talking about. 630 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 9: And I just gotta be honest with you. I think 631 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 9: it's the total opposite. I think you want to see 632 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 9: a high scoring game and they are going to blow 633 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 9: ads off from that? 634 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 1: Do they Does Arkansas get the ninety because that's what 635 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 1: they've averaged scoring, Yes, I don't. I don't see it 636 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 1: get to ninety. They will get to ninety. Yes, it's 637 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: going to be a high score. 638 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 9: Three they're gonna no. But again, I think the what 639 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:15,719 Speaker 9: you have to pay attention to very closely is is 640 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 9: the activity on the boards. The activity if if Arizona 641 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 9: is limiting them to Arkansas to one shot and they're 642 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 9: getting multiple shots, that's the strength of Arizona is they 643 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:36,720 Speaker 9: really really hit the boards really hard, and and they 644 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 9: find a way to the free throws and they shoot 645 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 9: very well there. I'm pretty certain their their free throw 646 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 9: percentage is pretty high. Those two things, But most importantly, 647 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 9: I think it's because they shoot so Arkansas shoots so 648 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 9: many three pointers that if they're if they're landing those threes, 649 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 9: then it doesn't really matter. But if they're not landing 650 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 9: those threes, will they get another opportunity to swing it 651 00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 9: or get some easy. 652 00:33:58,280 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 8: Put back baskets. 653 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 9: That's where I believe the game is going to be determined. 654 00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:08,960 Speaker 9: But I just got a feeling that that Caliperry in 655 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 9: this Arkansas Razorback team is like, hey, man, like it's 656 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 9: going to be the ghost of the Corless Williams, Scottie Thurman, 657 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 9: all them dudes, It's going to be.

Like me, you know, 668 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 9: I'm not a sore winner. So if Arkansas does what 669 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 9: I think they're going to do, don't worry about me tomorrow. 670 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 9: I'll just say, you know, hey, it was a good game, 671 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:00,320 Speaker 9: but you know, to be curious to see how Q 672 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 9: reacts if Arizona wins the low scoring defensive of fear. 673 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 1: No, no, no, if they win, I probably won't mention it. 674 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 1: I usually just kind of turn the page, move on 675 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 1: to the next day. Oh, very process oriented, trying to 676 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 1: get too high, too low, trying to stately process orient. 677 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 1: Put my blinders on, you know, not not trying to 678 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 1: get too distracted. You know, make sure I'm pulling the 679 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 1: chariot behind, but like making sure that the cart's never 680 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 1: in front of the horse. 681 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 8: You know what I'm saying, I rock with it.

I buy that that reasoning. 683 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm more concerned what will happen if if 684 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 1: Arkansas wins, you know, if I just you know, blow up. 685 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:38,280 Speaker 7: That's more of my concern. 686 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 9: I want to see how you feel when when Cali 687 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 9: Perry gets this dub.

So let's take a listen. 730 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 12: Best of the best, the lead of Elite want to 731 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 12: be coach hard and at that moment, you know, I 732 00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:44,920 Speaker 12: kind of had watched Lucci struggle, you know, for within 733 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 12: this tournament, and she's just too gifted, so you know, 734 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 12: I kind of wanted to employ just how much belief 735 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 12: I had in her and just kind of challengerr. I 736 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,040 Speaker 12: know what a winner and competitor she is, and just challenger. 737 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:58,360 Speaker 12: Do you want the moment, and I knew it was 738 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 12: like give it a minute to get her back in. 739 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 12: And you saw she she went out, she got a bucket, 740 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 12: she got a steal and never looked back. And sometimes 741 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 12: that that's where you've got to, you know, know your 742 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 12: players and the relationships that you have. And but like again, 743 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 12: you can't have those conversations if you don't have a 744 00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:19,359 Speaker 12: relationship with them. 745 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:21,400 Speaker 8: One hundred percent accurate. 746 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:25,840 Speaker 9: And I know her personally, and she is so well 747 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 9: respected in that community and she has done such an. 748 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 8: Amazing job with that program. One hundred percent. She told 749 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 8: her own the moment, own the moment. 750 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 1: The other thing she said, it was very visible. She 751 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 1: was like, I believe in you, Like you could see 752 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:42,719 Speaker 1: it very visibly, like she was saying that to her 753 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:44,880 Speaker 1: and like kind of like trying to get her going. 754 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:47,840 Speaker 1: And I do think that like on the outside we 755 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 1: tend to look that even as hard coaching, the reality 756 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,280 Speaker 1: is coaches know how to push the buttons of players, 757 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,279 Speaker 1: and the best coaches know how to do that. WF 758 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,760 Speaker 1: you want to talk about Bill Parcells or throw whatever 759 00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 1: the coach you know you want into that category. They 760 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 1: know their people, they know their personnel. They know what 761 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 1: drives them and what doesn't dry them. 762 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:08,880 Speaker 7: That's why they're a good coach. 763 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 1: So I never try to judge that, you know, Oftentimes 764 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:14,960 Speaker 1: I'll try to see the reaction of the player to 765 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,280 Speaker 1: get a sense for is this person out a touch 766 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: or do they know exactly what their player needs? And 767 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 1: in this instance, I think it's probably the latter. I 768 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:24,720 Speaker 1: think she had a good idea of what her player 769 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:27,840 Speaker 1: needed to hear in order to snap out of whatever 770 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:28,440 Speaker 1: was going on. 771 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 7: In that moment. 772 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 8: Dope stuff, man, what Jonas hot? 773 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:35,960 Speaker 6: No? 774 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:39,280 Speaker 7: Sweet? 775 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:41,839 Speaker 8: Oh god?
