So the extra goals, uh, 49 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 5: you know, push you to the over uh and away 50 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 5: you go. But it was one of those games, just 51 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,799 Speaker 5: an absolute burial. I learned more about the Hughes brothers 52 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 5: from my daughter, uh, who stopped in for lunch in 53 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 5: between classes and and uh He's like, oh, yeah, you 54 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 5: gotta look that guy up.

I'll see you later. I 58 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:41,079 Speaker 5: got practice, like, okay, but I appreciate learning all about 59 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 5: the love life and and the TikTok stardom of the Hughes. 60 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: Well, the Hugheses and the Kachucks. I you know how 61 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 1: you got them, both, the Hughes and the Kachucks. Like 62 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: that was all it was. 63 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 5: Well but one of the TikTok saying that the k Chucks, 64 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 5: you know, just the larger hockey thing. 65 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,399 Speaker 4: But yeah, just absolute sheer di a nation. 66 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 5: I was starting quite the stark contrast from the earlier game. 67 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: And I will tell you obviously I was, you know, 68 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 1: old enough to remember miracle on ice. It is still 69 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: forty five, forty six years later. The defining sporting event 70 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: of our lives. And I you know, remember it. Remember 71 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 1: remember the eighty five Bears being able to go all 72 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 1: the way through Yes, yes, because yes, yes, eighty five Bears. 73 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 5: Yes, yes, Well I mean for a little Mikey Harmon 74 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 5: that was a bigger deal because I was at least 75 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 5: six and a half and. 76 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: Okay, I'm talking for for every single person around the country. 77 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: The one thing that binds us all is not the 78 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: eighty five Bears. A miracle on ice is something that 79 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: you got to be a certain age to appreciate it. 80 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: But you know, one of the biggest upsets we've ever 81 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: seen they made. You know, they're not making movies out 82 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: of the eighty five Bears. At least they've been making 83 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: content for forty five. Content is one thing. Content as well, Let's. 84 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 5: Have a movie after movie, there's an award winning video 85 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 5: from the guys dancing and singing. 86 00:03:58,520 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, because we. 87 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: Need more books about the eighty and moved about the 88 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: eighty five Bears and the eighty six Mets and anything 89 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: having to do with the Celtics of the Oughts. 90 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 4: Yes, we need more content on that. You have more content. 91 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: But outside of that, right, they wanted it took everybody 92 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: by surprise. I mean watching them play, I have never 93 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 1: been more confident about a gold medal than when I am. 94 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: Right now, United States and Canada going into this game. 95 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: The United States defense is playing at such an incredibly 96 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 1: high level. I mean their penalty kill. Like today they 97 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,799 Speaker 1: took like seven penalties in role. I'm like, wow, okay, 98 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: we're just trying to keep the game even. I want 99 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: to keep people watching. The United States is out to 100 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 1: a two goal lead. Oh, here's a penalty, here's an 101 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 1: inadverton II stick. Okay, great, great, but the way they 102 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 1: killed the penalty day. Slovakia is a good team, right, 103 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 1: No are they? 104 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 4: Canada? No, they're not. But these teams at the United 105 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 4: States and Canada. 106 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: Beating you know, they're halfway full with NHL team, with 107 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: NHL players. They have superstar players on these teams. They're 108 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: really good players. And the United States defensively is making 109 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 1: them look like they are the last Olympic qualifier, Like 110 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 1: how do they even get in? Like play in Switzerland? 111 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 1: Are we playing these years? How did they get how 112 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: did they even get in to the Olympics. That's how 113 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: much that's what defensively United States is doing and Connor 114 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 1: Hellabook has had it easy. And that's the best part 115 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: is that he's still the best goalie in alive in 116 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 1: the Olympics and he hasn't had to carry the team yet. Yes, 117 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: he's faced a decent number of shots, but nothing really taxing. 118 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: The United States defense has just been absolutely aces the 119 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,599 Speaker 1: entire way through Man. Canada is a little bit looser 120 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: on defense than the United States is. And you're seeing 121 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 1: now the United States offense is starting to peek a 122 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: little bit. You know, you're seeing them put the puck 123 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 1: in the net. Now it's not just the first line 124 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: with the icles and the Kuchucks like that. You're starting 125 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 1: to get all the way up and down. I have 126 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 1: never been more confident they're gonna come out out of 127 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 1: Sunday with a gold medal. No, it's going to be 128 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: a rock fight like dog. This is not gonna be 129 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 1: something where, wow, we're up and down at seven to 130 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 1: six and we got to hold them off. Loll Like, 131 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: if you put the over under it three and a 132 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: half goals, I'll take the under Like this has two 133 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 1: to one, one nothing, three to one empty net goal. 134 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: Some kind of that's got written on this because look, 135 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: Canada is still an incredibly good team and you know 136 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,720 Speaker 1: they can explode at any time. They still haven't played 137 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 1: their best game in the Olympics. But this game is 138 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 1: going to be an absolute rock fight. I will be 139 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: surprised as the most surprised guy in the world if 140 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: suddenly Canada is lighting up the lighting the lamp on us. 141 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: Because defensively, we are just playing so incredibly well and 142 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: we've been We have bottled that from the beginning. And 143 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: I give credit to the to the coaching staff and 144 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: and USA Hockey saying you know what, let's go with 145 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,159 Speaker 1: almost everybody from four nations. We have no practice time, 146 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: we have no time to get anybody going. Let's go 147 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 1: with twenty one out of the twenty four players from 148 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: from four nations. That's what's gonna get it for us. 149 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: And that absolutely is what's done it. Because you can 150 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 1: see they're playing cos he's cohesive, they're playing together. It's 151 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: a lot different than when you watch Canada play. Telling 152 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 1: you I have never been more confident in a gold medal. 153 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,600 Speaker 5: Look get you, you are just jacked up about it. 154 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 5: Let's go and look ahead, shall we? 155 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 6: Uh? 156 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 5: The over under are currently sitting at five goals. 157 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I take I take the under on that. I'm 158 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: not even close. 159 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 5: See which which Canadian d team shows up, the one 160 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 5: that slept walking, got slapped around and gave up, the 161 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 5: two nothing leader, the one that realized, hey, we need 162 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 5: to play some hockey now. Because that team was a 163 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 5: little scary once they actually started moving. 164 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: They've been scary yet. But the thing is they've done 165 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: this the entire tournament. Like Canada has been this team 166 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: the entire tournament. They've not been a team that, hey, 167 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 1: they're just blowing the doors off of team. 168 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 4: Now. 169 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: It's one game, everything can change, you know, a great strategy, 170 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: who knows, But I mean, you know, you can only 171 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: do so much. And this is kind of who Canada 172 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: has been. And yeah, there's gonna be a ramp up 173 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 1: in pressure, ramp up and excitement in the rivalry. But really, Canada, 174 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: they've not been as good as the United States the 175 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: entire tournament. It's almost like a mirror of the women, 176 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: where instead of the women becoming the pre eminent hockey 177 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: team in the world, United States women is as clearly 178 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 1: bypassed Canada now beating them here in the gold medals 179 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: seven times in World they've won.

But go ahead, go back. 263 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 5: In minus two thirty. So it implied seventy win for 264 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 5: the United States. Yeah, I'm telling you, man, I'm gonna 265 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 5: take the over. Though, I think it opens up and 266 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 5: I think it gets a little weird. 267 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 4: Uh yeah, boy. 268 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 5: You know, if I identity is gonna ratchet up, guys 269 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 5: are gonna feel the need to press a little bit 270 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,839 Speaker 5: and gamble defensively to. 271 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,719 Speaker 4: Try to stop the rush. And I think we get 272 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 4: a little bit of weirdness. 273 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 1: I mean, if if I thought for a second the 274 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: United States would get caught up in a game like 275 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 1: you and Canada would need to get out to a 276 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: two nothing lead, like they didn't need to jump out. 277 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: And we see that's not been Canada, right, that's not 278 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: been that but and that's not the United States. If 279 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: anything in the United States Okay, we control the game 280 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: we have, you know, and then then we start denting 281 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: the scoreboard, like that's what it would take to keep 282 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:53,679 Speaker 1: that game opening up. And I just don't see it 283 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 1: because I mean it defensively, the United States are just 284 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: playing so incredibly well man like, they've been pushing all 285 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: the right buttons. I guess you could all fall apart 286 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 1: right that sports you know, like Berman says, that's why 287 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: they play the games, right That was always my favorite 288 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,200 Speaker 1: Berman leading, like he would be doing primetime and the 289 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: game would be like, you know, the Jets and the 290 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: Steelers in the nineties, right like, and it would be 291 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: the Jets come in at two and thirteen, the Steelers 292 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:22,679 Speaker 1: twelve and twelve and three. They've clinched their division already. 293 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: They have seven Pro Bowlers, the Jets have none. The 294 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 1: Jets have already clinched a top three draft pick. The 295 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 1: Steelers have a buy at least in the playoffs. But 296 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 1: that's why they play the. 297 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 5: Games right now, always the bill longer than more disastrous. 298 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 5: You knew the result was on the other side for 299 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 5: the favorite.

We told you the other night when this story 384 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: that really took us by surprise because of how incredibly 385 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 1: popular it's become. UCLA head coach Mick Cronin apologized today 386 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: for ejecting Stephen Jamerson from UCLA's game the other night 387 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: against Michigan State after he committed a hard foul. Now 388 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: remember this one. 389 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 4: It happened. 390 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 1: He commits a hard foul, Cronin feels like it's a 391 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 1: dirty foul, and he just goes very demonstratively throws Jamerson 392 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: out of the game, which is utterly ridiculous. We said 393 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 1: at the time, stop grand standing. You know it's it's 394 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: stupid you're doing. If you have a problem with a foul, 395 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: talk to a kid. No one ever does this before. 396 00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: Tom Izzo would understand. Even Izzo said after the game, 397 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: I've never seen that before, and we said this doesn't fly. 398 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 6: Okay. 399 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 1: Then about a half hour later, we had the postgame 400 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 1: from Mick Cronin where he was still all wound up 401 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 1: about what happened, and he decided to go in on 402 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: a reporter who asked him an innocuous question about some 403 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 1: chance that the Michigan State student section was throwing out there. 404 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,120 Speaker 1: And this to refresh you before we play as apology. Uh, 405 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:29,159 Speaker 1: this is Mick Cronin from the other night, not happy 406 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: when a reporter's voice actually gets a little higher than 407 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: it normally should. What was your thoughts in the student section, 408 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,920 Speaker 1: Channing Booker's name, I could give a rat's ass about 409 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 1: the other team student section. 410 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 6: Overall the way, I would like to give you. 411 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:46,120 Speaker 1: The kudos for your worst question. 412 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:50,320 Speaker 8: I have asked, did you did you like this should 413 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 8: take it the preparation? 414 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 6: Do you really think I care about the. 415 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 2: Other I don't think you care about the voice? 416 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 4: Come on, yes you were.

He was very I'm telling you, 429 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 1: it was a little bit of Tommy Lasorta and a 430 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 1: little bit of Franka Stanza. You want a piece of me, like, 431 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: it's a little bit of both that it's a little 432 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: bit of both of those things, which are two of 433 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: the funniest things you'll ever watch in your life. So 434 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: I kind of felt like it was kind of a 435 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 1: mix of bo are you raising your voice of me? 436 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: What the hell is that supposed to be? 437 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 5: Oh, we needed in the curse a few times, and 438 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 5: we hadd some lee Eli and we got the hat trick. 439 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 1: Eighty five percent of the people in Chicago have jobs. 440 00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: The other fifteen percent come out here a boy. So 441 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 1: when this happened the other night, we said, Mick Cronin 442 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:11,120 Speaker 1: is gonna have no choice but to apologize. Because certain 443 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:15,199 Speaker 1: things don't fly in certain programs. Sometimes a coach can 444 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,199 Speaker 1: get away with saying something like this, I'm throwing my 445 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,639 Speaker 1: player out of the game again. You know, certain programs, 446 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,440 Speaker 1: certain parts of the country. Hey, we're a little more 447 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 1: lenient for something like this. We can forgive something like 448 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 1: this a little bit more. We understand. We want to 449 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,200 Speaker 1: find out where the coach is coming from. But Ucla, 450 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,920 Speaker 1: this is Ucla. They still talk about John Wooden. Here 451 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 1: they talk about John would like you stopped coaching two 452 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: years ago, and every UCLA head coach, Steve Lavin will 453 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 1: tell you, Jim Harrick will tell you you are in 454 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 1: the shadow of the greatest coach to ever grace a 455 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 1: sideline in almost any sport. The reverence that people still 456 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: talk about John wood UCLA is one of those schools where, hey, 457 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 1: we got to be doing a little bit better than 458 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,679 Speaker 1: everybody else, right, And not that I talk about other 459 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: school but like, you know, there's a certain schools where hey, okay, 460 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 1: this is not that big. You know, we're we're bathing 461 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:08,439 Speaker 1: in all kinds of controversy and we just move on, 462 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,679 Speaker 1: you know, like it's Alabama, you know, I mean, this 463 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: is you know, we we have stuff happening.

We said there's going to be 472 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: an apology before they play their next game. There's absolutely 473 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 1: happening because this is not something that goes by being 474 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 1: cool at UCLA, where you demonstratively throw a kid out 475 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,679 Speaker 1: of a game and then you melt down at reporters 476 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: and you make the school look bad. 477 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 4: Because that's what Mick Cronin did well. 478 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 1: Today Mick Cronin had to apologize and he stood in 479 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: front of reporters, which you know he didn't want to 480 00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,479 Speaker 1: do at all, for four minutes, and he talked about 481 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,400 Speaker 1: being sorry for what he did to Stephen Jamison, throwing 482 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 1: him out of the game.

You know, 506 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: first of all, for him to start and say, just 507 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 1: so you know, I already apologized to Stephen, like right away, 508 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 1: I could tell this apology was going to suck, right 509 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: I can tell it was going to suck, because rightay, 510 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 1: I've already apologized to Stephen. Like you guys, don't need 511 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 1: to know that I've done this. The last thing he 512 00:22:16,920 --> 00:22:18,440 Speaker 1: wanted to do is be out there in front of 513 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,239 Speaker 1: reporters and apologize. That's the last thing he wanted to do, 514 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 1: is apologize for this. But when he starts up by saying, 515 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,479 Speaker 1: I've already apologized to him, like it's over. No, dude, 516 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,120 Speaker 1: you aired him out in front of a national audience. 517 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: There is nobody in the country that doesn't know what happened, 518 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 1: what you did to this kid. Nobody in the country 519 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 1: that doesn't know. And now he went on the next 520 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 1: few mens and talked about him and what he's like 521 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 1: as a player. And that's great, right, that's awesome. But 522 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: just the fact that he starts I already apologize to him. Dude, 523 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,159 Speaker 1: you need to come out and say, hey, this is 524 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: not me, this is not the standard everything. But the 525 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: fact that he comes out when he says, I've already apologized. No, no, no, 526 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: you embarrass a guy nationally. You have to apologize. 527 00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 3: Now. 528 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: People have to see this apology from you. And I'm 529 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 1: sorry that it looks like it is pulling teeth from 530 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 1: you to get you out here. 531 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:06,720 Speaker 4: But you have to apologize because you know what. 532 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,199 Speaker 1: You were wrong. You are absolutely wrong. And then when 533 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,400 Speaker 1: he goes on to say, you know, I know I'm 534 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: not bigger than the brand, Like, that's another reason why 535 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: I know his apologies suck because he said that I 536 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 1: know I'm not bigger than the brand. Clearly you are, 537 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: because you continually do things that paint UCLA in a 538 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 1: controversial and bad light. 539 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 4: Again, this is UCLA, man. 540 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,879 Speaker 1: I don't know that he really knows where he coaches, 541 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: even though he's been here for how many years? Big 542 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 1: runs into the tournament. Like, if you really knew and said, hey, 543 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 1: I know where I coach, then we wouldn't be talking 544 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 1: about you yelling at the fan, blaming fans for a 545 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 1: loss like you did last year, throwing a kid out, 546 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,400 Speaker 1: melting down at a reporter. I don't think you really know, man, 547 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 1: I think you think I'm coaching big time college basketball. 548 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 4: But only don't think you know. And it's insane. 549 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 1: But but but when I see him say, I you know, 550 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: I know I'm not bigger than the brand, No, clearly 551 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 1: you do, because there are so many instances we've had 552 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 1: the last few years where boy, you believe Mick Cronin 553 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 1: said this, keep it and you know people want to 554 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,119 Speaker 1: talk on social media about the ratio. Oh what do 555 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:07,439 Speaker 1: you get ratio that needs your point is really bad? Well, 556 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 1: this is where if Mick cronin all this stuff is 557 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,480 Speaker 1: on social media, he'd be ratioed the entire time, every 558 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 1: single thing he said. I don't I can't even count 559 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 1: the number of times he has said something where I 560 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 1: would say, wow, I don't know that, I would say that, 561 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:20,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. I would say that and it didn't 562 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 1: paint him or UCLA in a good light. But yet 563 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: he continues to do it and it doesn't really show 564 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 1: any signs of slowing down. Now I would have to 565 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: think now, I don't know, but I would have to 566 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: think that UCLA would sit down and say to him, Okay, 567 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: this is not the early twenties where hey, you say this, 568 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 1: but we're having surprise runs deep in the NCAA tournament 569 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 1: and where miracle shots away from beating Gonzaga and moving 570 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 1: on Final four. Last three years ain't been great, and 571 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: we're probably not going to tournament again this year. Next 572 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 1: time something like this happens, yeah, get your resume ready 573 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,399 Speaker 1: because we're not gonna go through this again. We're not 574 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: gonna have you embarrass a school again. Like this when 575 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:01,400 Speaker 1: the results are not there, and I'm sure they got 576 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,120 Speaker 1: a short list of names right now that says, Okay, 577 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:05,160 Speaker 1: if something happens the rest of this year, who knows 578 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: how it's gonna go. We still have a few games left. 579 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: Who knows what mc cronin's gonna say or do over 580 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 1: the next a few weeks. Let's be ready in case 581 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 1: we have to do something, because Mick cronin he absolutely 582 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,719 Speaker 1: has to be on his last chance with what's going on, 583 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 1: especially what happened the last couple of days here, because 584 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: none of this flies and I still cake it over 585 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:26,160 Speaker 1: how Jamison, How these kids are going to go back 586 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,679 Speaker 1: and say, yeah, coach, you got my back? Like, do 587 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 1: you really think he has your back? You really think 588 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 1: some of the things he says and does. He feels 589 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: like he's two people, right. He feels like the mc 590 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 1: cronin that you think you see and then you see 591 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,360 Speaker 1: the public mc cronin that is becoming more and more. 592 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: He's the real mc cronin. So I gotta think he's 593 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 1: on his last chance here. 594 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 5: Well, what's curious about it all is you know the 595 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,439 Speaker 5: tone and tenor and whenever you take the talking point 596 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 5: of I'm not bigger than the brand. Right off the jump. 597 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:56,920 Speaker 5: That is, you know, public relations one oh one from 598 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 5: the school. All right, here's the bullet points you're gonna 599 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 5: have to do. I'm not bigger than the brand. The 600 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 5: brand of UCLA basketball extends beyond me. Look, guys in Westwood, 601 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 5: we've seen it for the last couple of coaches. But 602 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 5: if you win enough, you can get away with it 603 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 5: for a while. And for McK cronan, you could be 604 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 5: a chap ass and everybody kind of chuckles and it's charming. No, 605 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:23,439 Speaker 5: but legitimately, we've watched this with every sport, right with 606 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:28,200 Speaker 5: Bill Belichick. You can be a bit of a pill 607 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 5: to the local media unless they ask you about the 608 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,399 Speaker 5: other team, special teams for as long as you want. 609 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 5: If you're winning super Bowls and running towards towards a 610 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 5: deep playoff run. If you're not, then that suddenly it's 611 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 5: not cute anymore. For everybody, it becomes all right, just 612 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 5: answer the question. They're tough guy, and let's move on. 613 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,800 Speaker 5: So for McK cronin, you have all of that. I 614 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 5: also wonder as we sit here tonight, and maybe I'm overreaching, 615 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,640 Speaker 5: but let's have a little fun with this. How much 616 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 5: of the tang situation at Kansas State comes in here? 617 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 5: Fired four cause for disparaging his players. Hey, you won't 618 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 5: be in the uniform and all of that stuff, and 619 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 5: now that's going to be a lawsuit. But what Mick 620 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 5: Cronan did. We embarrassed the university and he embarrassed that kid. 621 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 5: There's no two ways. And you can't unring that bell. 622 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 5: You can't unring the video, and you can't take back 623 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 5: the audio of what you did to that reporter. Now 624 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 5: some might think it's funny, a I rolled me, but again, 625 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 5: be better, be better in the moment, and everybody has 626 00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 5: our worst moments. You don't want to be judged by him. 627 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 4: I get that. 628 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 5: But it's a consistent pattern of this kind of tact 629 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 5: from Mick Cronin through the years. So this is the latest. 630 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 5: So I'm wondering if he didn't get threatened with that 631 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 5: in part of it. Hey, you can't keep embarrassing what 632 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 5: we are here. 633 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Jason Smith 634 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 2: Show with Mike Harmon weekdays at ten pm Eastern, seven 635 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 2: pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app. 636 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:02,680 Speaker 1: Well, I gotta say, today was a day that the 637 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 1: Winter Olympics absolutely needed, absolutely needed a day with some 638 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 1: kind of excitement that brought people to the televisions talking 639 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: talking after because look, you know, look we do all 640 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 1: the great fun stuff.

This team is made to play 768 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 1: suffocating defense. They've played, they've played so well. Look, which 769 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 1: shows you practice together is overrated. So what do they 770 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 1: have two practices before they played their first? I mean 771 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 1: that's just it. Hey, do you know what you're supposed 772 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 1: to do? 773 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 4: Yeah? But you see that guy over there? Yeah, okay, good. 774 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 1: But that's your four nation strategy of twenty one of 775 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 1: the twenty four players all played in four nations together, 776 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 1: so it's like, okay, how do we get everybody on 777 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 1: the same page. Defensively, I've never seen the United States 778 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 1: play like this in an Olympics. As much as we 779 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 1: want to talk about, hey, they're playing well. Their defense 780 00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 1: is what's keeping them in everything. Like so, I mean, hello, 781 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: but had like thirty saves today, but how many of 782 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: them were difficult? 783 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 4: Like not many? 784 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 3: You know? 785 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 4: He would you know? 786 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 1: You have only had a couple of chances, Sweeten, had 787 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 1: they run one off the post the goal they had 788 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: when they had the extra man on an. 789 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:12,399 Speaker 4: That's why. 790 00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: And I'll be honest, I feel so much more confident 791 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 1: than I've ever been for a gold medal for the 792 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: United States and hockey since nineteen eighty because of the 793 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,799 Speaker 1: way they're playing defensively, because USA, when you get through 794 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 1: the semifinals into the finals, if they both go United 795 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 1: States and Canada, it's going to be a rock fight. 796 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 1: It's going to be an absolute rock fight with these 797 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 1: two teams. In Canada looks like they're playing a little loose. 798 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 1: They're allowing more chances than you'd expect. The United States 799 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:38,520 Speaker 1: is not scoring as much, but they're not allowing chances 800 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: Like this is the first time I feel like the 801 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,239 Speaker 1: United States winning the next game in Canada winning the 802 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 1: next game they get in the gold medal game, we're 803 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 1: on an even setting with Canada. We aren't even said 804 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 1: because I have more confidence in our goalie because he's 805 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 1: the best American goalie that that we've ever had. Hellabook 806 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:55,759 Speaker 1: is that guy. So I've never been more confident that 807 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 1: we can win a gold medal in hockey than I 808 00:34:58,320 --> 00:34:58,879 Speaker 1: am right now. 809 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I use the wrong So bored, wasn't it? It 810 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 5: was more just the It was a letdown because, like 811 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 5: I like, just full on hockey. But to your point, 812 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:12,360 Speaker 5: the defense smothering and even in the extra frame, the 813 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 5: extra couple of minutes that it did go, it seemed inevitable, right. 814 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 5: It seemed inevitable that the US, with the number of chances, 815 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 5: with the amount of time spent in the Swedish zone, 816 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 5: that they were gonna find the net. 817 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:30,239 Speaker 4: It was difficult, but not impossible. 818 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,399 Speaker 1: It's not like we have It's not like the United 819 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:36,640 Speaker 1: States offense is built too. We're just gonna We're gonna 820 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: steamroll you at line. It's like, okay, the top line 821 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:40,320 Speaker 1: in the United States. This is what I has to 822 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 1: get it done, right, you know, the klan the Kachuk's like, 823 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:43,879 Speaker 1: that's got to be the line to get it done. 824 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 4: You may get the goal here and there. 825 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 1: The odd goal in Quinn Hughes today double shifting in overtime, 826 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: staying on the ice to score that last goal, waved 827 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: off like Mike Sullivan wanted to change. He goes, no, 828 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 1: I'm good, I'm good. Okay, well you score the game 829 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 1: winning goal. But that you know the way the United 830 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:00,160 Speaker 1: States team has built, it is built for.
