4
00:00:18.960 --> 00:00:21.679
Ball here on Fox Sports fourteen fifty. I'm your host for the day,

5
00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:25.640
Jay Gonzalez. My partner Steve is
out today. He's gonna go out today

6
00:00:25.679 --> 00:00:30.039
and on Monday. So today it's
me and Noah. No's it's a good

7
00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:34.479
day. It's a big day.
I feel like it's it's we got blessed

8
00:00:34.479 --> 00:00:37.479
that it's not one of those days
or nothing goes on. Yeah, but

9
00:00:37.679 --> 00:00:41.280
uh it's a memple Friday tonight,
some good games, good good stuff.

10
00:00:41.320 --> 00:00:44.479
We got some NBA stuff going on
tonight. We've Scott some ongoing stuff.

11
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:48.600
Um, you know, still haven't
heard from the u of A on on

12
00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:52.840
on the Jagen Delora thing. Wisconsin
did issue a statement yesterday, but we

13
00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:56.119
haven't heard anything from Arizona, which
I kind of wish we would, But

14
00:00:56.159 --> 00:00:59.159
we'll get to that in a second. Um, So you know, some

15
00:00:59.200 --> 00:01:03.280
other stuff, men's tennis. I'm
this one. I'm keeping an eye on

16
00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:07.000
because we've had we've had Um Clancy
Shields, the u of A men's tennis

17
00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:11.280
coach on a couple of times.
And they're in the middle of their NC

18
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:17.319
double a first round match with the
Boise State. Uh, they've taken the

19
00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:21.000
doubles point. And for those of
you who aren't familiar with this, the

20
00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:25.799
way a tennis matches scored a contennis
matches scored. They play three doubles matches.

21
00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:27.799
Whoever wins two out of three gets
the one point for doubles. Then

22
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:33.319
they play six singles matches. It's
the first one to four four matches wins

23
00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:36.640
wins the match. So Arizona has
the doubles match. So all they have

24
00:01:36.680 --> 00:01:40.319
to do a split the six singles
matches and they win. They're up in

25
00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:45.400
three of those four of those.
UM, so it's it's looking, you

26
00:01:45.400 --> 00:01:48.319
know, very good for Arizona to
move on there. But we'll keep it

27
00:01:48.319 --> 00:01:52.079
on that a little bit. But
that's just something that UM just got.

28
00:01:52.120 --> 00:01:55.120
It's got my interest because Clancy Shields
have been such a great guest. He

29
00:01:55.159 --> 00:01:59.239
really appreciates being on our show.
We had him on ahead of the ahead

30
00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:01.599
of the tournament. They're very excited
and this is kind of historic fair zonus

31
00:02:01.640 --> 00:02:06.920
in the middle of their match right
now and then, um, you know,

32
00:02:06.959 --> 00:02:09.319
a lot a lot of breaking stuff. But U, this thing with

33
00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:15.400
Alabama and their baseball team is continues
to to come up with little tidbits of

34
00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:17.400
news or finding to warn more about
that what's the what's the what's the main

35
00:02:17.439 --> 00:02:22.039
storyline? Well, here's what happened, and it's starting to come out as

36
00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:25.400
to more specifically what happened. We
covered a little bit of this yesterday.

37
00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:30.560
But the deal was at Alabama was
starting in a three game series with LSU,

38
00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:35.599
Alice's number one in the country.
Um and uh, right before the

39
00:02:35.599 --> 00:02:38.800
game, like within an hour or
so before the game, Alabama, Uh,

40
00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:44.479
their head head coach Brad bohan And
had to take their starting pitcher and

41
00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:46.840
put him on the bench. He's
game. He had a bad back.

42
00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:51.080
So they're ace and in college baseball, your Friday starter, your first day

43
00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:53.680
starting. This is the last Friday. Your first day starter is your best

44
00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:57.000
pitcher. It's all of a sudden, they're gonna have to pitch some guy

45
00:02:57.039 --> 00:03:00.240
who hasn't pitched in a long time. Yeah, all right. Apparently he

46
00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:07.039
relayed that information to a guy who
is a it's come out that he was

47
00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:12.159
a former high school baseball coach.
Don't know how he's connected to Bohanon yet.

48
00:03:12.639 --> 00:03:17.360
But this guy in Cincinnati who goes
over to the Cincinnati Reds Stadium Great

49
00:03:17.400 --> 00:03:22.479
America Park, there's a sports book
there and he laid down a couple of

50
00:03:22.520 --> 00:03:29.319
wagers on Alibat on LSU. They
were called sizable wagers. Now, a

51
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:36.360
sizable wager in the NFL, college
football, college basketball is in the thousands,

52
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:39.039
hundreds of thousands. Sometimes we know
about Mattress Mac who bets millions of

53
00:03:39.080 --> 00:03:44.840
dollars. So the standard of what's
a sizable wager in those sports it is

54
00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:50.039
probably different from what's a sizable wager
on a sport that hardly anybody ever bets

55
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:54.080
on, which is right. Fan
Duel in the aftermath of this, reported

56
00:03:54.120 --> 00:04:00.319
that in all the fan duel states
and all over the country, they didn't

57
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:04.199
take one bet on Alabama LSU.
Not one. So somebody goes into this

58
00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:10.599
sports book and lays down a single
bet on LSU and then puts LSU in

59
00:04:10.680 --> 00:04:15.520
a parlay while he's in the sports
book. Surveillance video they when they were

60
00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:18.839
investigating the surveillance videos, somehow I
don't know what kind of surveillance video they

61
00:04:18.920 --> 00:04:25.279
had said that on his phone they
could see that he was in contact with

62
00:04:25.319 --> 00:04:30.399
the Alabama baseball coach while he was
making these bets. So they're talking somehow,

63
00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:31.000
So so what do you what do
you mean? Like they didn't They

64
00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:35.160
didn't take a single bet. Nobody, nobody else bet on this game except

65
00:04:35.240 --> 00:04:40.279
this guy. So there was like
one bet, right, So drew suspicion

66
00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:45.000
that some guy not only was betting
on Alabama LSU baseball, but he's betting

67
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:48.600
a significant amounting, right, So
they had something's up. Somebody's doing.

68
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:54.079
You know, somebody knows something.
Here's the thing is that and and and

69
00:04:54.160 --> 00:05:00.399
you know, for the longest time
that people wanted to get gambling legalized was

70
00:05:00.439 --> 00:05:06.000
because of the ability to monitor legalize
gambling. When people are gambling with bookies

71
00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:09.920
and whatnot, you don't know what
the hell is going on, right,

72
00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:12.800
of course, you know, when
you go back to the Headache Smith thing

73
00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:17.319
up at ASCU, the point shaving
thing up at the ACU basketball the reason

74
00:05:17.399 --> 00:05:23.839
that got found out that was found
out was because people were betting on ASU

75
00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:28.519
games in Vegas. Vegas detected that
there was some suspicious activity going on,

76
00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:32.040
and that's how they got caught.
Same thing with this, It was unusual

77
00:05:32.360 --> 00:05:39.240
for somebody to be betting this much
money on an Alabama baseball game, particularly

78
00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:44.160
to be betting on an Alabama baseball
game in Cincinnati. So basically, a

79
00:05:44.279 --> 00:05:49.759
guy in Cincinnati bet on an Alabama
baseball game and put a very large amount

80
00:05:49.759 --> 00:05:53.519
on it, and he was the
only person in the entire country to bet

81
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:56.399
that game. More or less.
So if you, if you like asked

82
00:05:56.399 --> 00:06:00.920
me, if you were like me, give me away, give me away

83
00:06:00.920 --> 00:06:05.319
where you place a bet and make
it as obvious as you can that you're

84
00:06:05.360 --> 00:06:08.319
gonna get caught. Like that's what
I would do. Ye, go bet

85
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:11.839
one hundred thousand dollars on an obscure
sport if I, if I asked you

86
00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:15.920
to go, put five thousand dollars
bet for me somewhere, you know,

87
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:18.480
at a sports book on an Arizona
basketball game. Nobody's gonna think twice about

88
00:06:18.480 --> 00:06:20.959
that. But you tell me to
put If I tell you to put that

89
00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:26.040
on an Arizona baseball game, red
flags go up. And that's what happened.

90
00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:30.360
There were red flags. They looked
into it. They immediately stopped taking

91
00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:33.399
bets on Alabama baseball although nobody else
was betting on it. Two other states

92
00:06:33.399 --> 00:06:36.480
did the same thing, and investigating
this, they found out that the guy

93
00:06:36.519 --> 00:06:41.439
who was laying the bets was in
contact with Brad Bohan and three days later,

94
00:06:41.480 --> 00:06:46.160
Brad Bohan and the baseball coach at
Alabama is fired. So you know

95
00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:48.800
that Alabama found something that said we
got to fire this guy and they fired

96
00:06:48.879 --> 00:06:51.319
him. So, but do you
think that has to do with him like

97
00:06:51.399 --> 00:06:55.480
giving the information out? Yeah?
So, so this guy in Cincinnati was

98
00:06:56.519 --> 00:06:59.759
he's not he got no, he's
not related to the team, but he's

99
00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:04.199
apply got some kind of connection with
Brad Bohannon, the baseball coach. Because

100
00:07:04.199 --> 00:07:09.560
what this guy did was he went
and laid some bets down on information that

101
00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:13.199
wasn't available to anybody else. Brad
Bohann called say, hey, my guy,

102
00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:16.240
my start, My ace is not
pitching tonight against LSU. The guy

103
00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:19.959
who's pitching isn't going to beat him. They're gonna kick our asses. Go

104
00:07:20.040 --> 00:07:26.000
put some money down on LSUM.
That's what they're alleged. Okay, okay,

105
00:07:26.040 --> 00:07:30.079
I would make that their allegend that
he was in contact with Bohannon.

106
00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:33.600
Bohan told him what was going on. Whether Bohannon did that or the guy

107
00:07:33.639 --> 00:07:36.199
said, hey, I want to
place, you know, a bet on

108
00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:40.639
your team. What do I need
to know? Whatever it was, Bohannon

109
00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:46.079
provided information to this guy. This
guy made the bets. Now Bohannon's fired

110
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:50.439
because they've apparently determined that he had
a hand in these bets that were made.

111
00:07:50.600 --> 00:07:54.240
My question is if they find out
that the only thing that was done

112
00:07:54.360 --> 00:07:58.079
was he just said what was like
the details, nothing about any money wherever,

113
00:07:58.120 --> 00:08:00.879
just said it's going to be this
picture instead. Do you think that's

114
00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:07.000
a fireball offense? Again, it
depends on the circumstances. If he was

115
00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:11.439
sending text messages and he was telling
the guy go bet on this right,

116
00:08:11.800 --> 00:08:15.800
or he or the guy said,
hey, I'm gonna bet on your team.

117
00:08:16.720 --> 00:08:20.160
What I need to know and he
tells him that he knowingly gives him

118
00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:24.480
information that he knows is going to
be used for dambling. That's a fireball

119
00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:28.759
offense to be exactly. So Like
for me, it's like, yes,

120
00:08:28.079 --> 00:08:31.519
if he had any influence, I
who knows the way he said it.

121
00:08:31.559 --> 00:08:35.960
If it was like a phone call
he was like hinting that maybe you should

122
00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:37.000
you know, there's a really good
chance that you should put money here,

123
00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:39.440
like no one else knows, you
know this, right, It's like if

124
00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:41.679
it wasn't that, it was kind
of just the other thing like that could

125
00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:46.159
have slips him just saying it.
I don't know. Well, the fact

126
00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:52.960
that they fired him, I mean
it applies there something they've determined that he

127
00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:54.639
was. He had, he had
an influence on this guy making these bets,

128
00:08:54.679 --> 00:08:58.039
and now he's out of a job. The thing is, you know,

129
00:08:58.759 --> 00:09:01.240
no, uh, how much money
was he going to make on a

130
00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:05.200
bet like that? Right? Ls
he was probably favored like how to beat

131
00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:07.840
Alabama? Anyways? Who's going to
make some money off of that? Not

132
00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:11.080
very much? Certainly, this guy's
getting paid nearly half a million dollars a

133
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:13.720
year to cold be the Alabama baseball
coach and now he's out of a job

134
00:09:15.399 --> 00:09:18.720
and he was fired for cause he's
not getting a buy out or anything.

135
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:24.279
Right, He's like he's cut off. So how much could it have been

136
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:26.399
even if the guy best, Even
if the guy bet five let's say,

137
00:09:26.480 --> 00:09:30.799
bet five thousand dollars, the money
line on this is probably going to be

138
00:09:30.840 --> 00:09:35.960
minus or or you know, uh, five hundred or something like he was

139
00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:39.519
gonna make you know a couple of
a few hundred dollars that hasn't come out

140
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:43.000
how much the bet was. All
that's come out is it was a it

141
00:09:43.120 --> 00:09:46.440
was a bet, a single bet
on the game, and then that game

142
00:09:46.480 --> 00:09:50.399
was included in a parlay. It's
the part of everything else hit. I

143
00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:56.279
don't know. That's like I can't
have been late, but it's like I

144
00:09:56.320 --> 00:10:01.240
don't know. Yeah, the thing
is and here's there's a big piece of

145
00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:05.639
this is that people who didn't want
gambling legalized or saying, see, we

146
00:10:05.799 --> 00:10:09.639
told you this was going to happen. But what we what those people don't

147
00:10:09.679 --> 00:10:13.679
know when none of us know,
is how much this was happening underground with

148
00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:20.840
bookies and stuff right where this guy
got caught because gambling was legal. Like

149
00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:22.080
we'll think about it. It's like
it's like, yeah, that, but

150
00:10:22.159 --> 00:10:26.879
it's like you find like for every
like rat that you find, there's like

151
00:10:26.919 --> 00:10:30.320
ten in the walls here right Like
it's it's like it's like, I mean,

152
00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:33.360
I think it obviously would have been
different unless you found like hundreds of

153
00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:37.440
people betting on this game and they
were scattered from vacations. That would make

154
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:39.399
a big difference. But it's like, yeah, see, and that's what

155
00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:43.720
happened. That's what happened in the
ASU thing, in the ASU thing,

156
00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:46.720
all of a sudden, for this
one game, there was all this action

157
00:10:46.759 --> 00:10:52.120
on ASU basketball because word got out
that points were being shaved. So all

158
00:10:52.159 --> 00:10:58.320
these guys and mostly students from ASU
were driving up to Vegas and flooding the

159
00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:03.039
sports book and making bets and that's
what you know, caused the red flag.

160
00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:05.679
And that's how those guys got caught. There's a great there's a great

161
00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:11.519
HBO documentary on this. Um Our
friend Ken Summers has been on on the

162
00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:15.039
on the show number of times.
He was a reporter covering NASCU basketball at

163
00:11:15.080 --> 00:11:18.559
the time he's on, he's a
part of the part of the documentary.

164
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:22.399
But it's fascinating they don't find these
things out. If Cami, if gamily

165
00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:26.879
is not legal. Let's take this
call. Hi, run they are and

166
00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:33.480
on the ball. Hey you guys, um this Hey Gabriel from California.

167
00:11:33.679 --> 00:11:37.879
UM, do do you guys have
time on to talk about what's going on?

168
00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:41.799
We do, but you know what, We're gonna go to a break

169
00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:45.080
here in a couple of minutes.
And then we got a guest. Why

170
00:11:45.080 --> 00:11:48.720
don't you call us back after the
guest, so probably probably about three forty

171
00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:52.120
okay, and then we'll we'll talk
about it then because we're running out of

172
00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:56.720
time for our first break, but
we we want to talk about it because

173
00:11:56.720 --> 00:11:58.639
there's there's you know, there's obviously
stuff going on with that. We've got

174
00:11:58.679 --> 00:12:01.240
our guests, Hurt his chin from
the Sugar Skulls coming on in a couple

175
00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:07.519
of minutes, So call us about
three forty okay. Sounds great, talk

176
00:12:07.559 --> 00:12:11.919
to you soon, got it.
I guess I should remember I should let

177
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:16.679
let our listeners know Hurt his Chin
head culture of the two soon Sugar Skulls

178
00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:18.960
they've got. They're back on the
field this weekend. They took last weekend

179
00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:26.000
off after a very disappointing loss,
uh last second still overtime loss to San

180
00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:30.759
Diego. Excuse me, um.
We'll have hurt us talk about what's been

181
00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:33.360
going on over the last two weeks
on the heels of this thing. And

182
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:37.480
then at at four or fifteen,
Jake Fisher, who'll, uh, we'll

183
00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:41.440
pick Jake's brain on all of this
stuff. Jade Delora h Jayden Bradley,

184
00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:46.960
who's you know, come to Arizona
after kind of being tied to this this

185
00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:50.639
uh, this murder in uh in
Alabama, UM, and just all the

186
00:12:50.639 --> 00:12:54.759
other stuff. Jake always gives us
a good perspective having been a college athlete.

187
00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:56.000
So we'll talk to Jake about all
of that. But anyway, just

188
00:12:56.039 --> 00:13:00.519
real quickly getting back to this whole
issue with the gambling thing. So you

189
00:13:00.519 --> 00:13:03.000
know, that's how you get caught
by this stuff being legal. So you

190
00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:07.960
know, the people who keep arguing
about gambling on sports shouldn't be legal,

191
00:13:09.080 --> 00:13:11.360
they're they're arguing about the wrong thing. This is how this is, This

192
00:13:11.440 --> 00:13:13.759
is how these things get caught,
and this is this coach got caught.

193
00:13:15.879 --> 00:13:18.480
There's gonna be there's gonna be situations
like this. But what we don't know

194
00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:22.360
is how many of these are.
They're already out there where guys were doing

195
00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:26.360
this with bookies way more than way
more than we know, way more than

196
00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:28.799
we know way more. So that's
you know, I mean, that's the

197
00:13:28.799 --> 00:13:31.840
whole deal. So, um,
this is this is gonna be going on.

198
00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:35.120
And look at the media is after
this a lot of investigations. It's

199
00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:41.120
with a public school, so documents
and stuff like that are gonna be uh,

200
00:13:41.159 --> 00:13:43.200
you know, are gonna be public
and we're gonna find out more and

201
00:13:43.240 --> 00:13:46.840
more, to my way of thinking, if this guy did this, this

202
00:13:46.000 --> 00:13:50.080
wasn't the first time he did this, right, I mean, yeah,

203
00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:54.879
it's there's a likelihood that this was
the first time in terms of something like

204
00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:58.240
this. Yeah, yeah, I
mean, you know, when Pete Rose

205
00:13:58.279 --> 00:14:01.240
gambled on baseball, he did it
more than once. Oh yeah, right,

206
00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:05.120
finally got caught. So all right, that's gonna take our break.

207
00:14:05.120 --> 00:14:07.960
We're gonna have a hurt his chin
head coach of the Tucson Sugar Skulls.

208
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:11.559
He'll come in and talk a little
bit about his team. They've got a

211
00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:22.759

255
00:17:38.839 --> 00:17:45.440
important. It's the foundation of everything, that defines the society. Everything you've

256
00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:48.920
seen is a product of mining.
Don't matter when, don't matter, how,

257
00:17:49.440 --> 00:17:56.720
don't matter why. Every society on
this planet has developed roan and lododizes

258
00:17:56.880 --> 00:18:02.160
based solely on the minerals it could
process. That's my friend, is why

is I am the ball on Fox

262
00:18:21.880 --> 00:18:25.599
Balling on Fox Sports fourteen fifty.
I'm your host of Jay Gonzalez. My

263
00:18:25.720 --> 00:18:29.839
partner Steve is out for the next
two days today and Monday. I've got

264
00:18:29.920 --> 00:18:33.480
Noah here running the board and keeping
me company. And on the phone.

265
00:18:33.519 --> 00:18:37.759
We've got Tucson Sugar Sculls head coach, hurt his chin, coming off a

266
00:18:38.519 --> 00:18:44.720
very difficult loss, but took the
week off. Probably gathered yourself and hurt

267
00:18:44.759 --> 00:18:45.480
us. Want to talk to you
about how things are going. How are

268
00:18:45.519 --> 00:18:51.000
you today? I'm better than wonderful
today. How are you awesome? Awesome?

269
00:18:51.039 --> 00:18:53.480
That's great to hear. So last
time we saw you, we were

270
00:18:53.519 --> 00:18:57.039
coming off the field. Had a
tough loss over time to San Diego,

271
00:18:57.680 --> 00:19:00.559
a game that we all know.
It came down to one play on that

272
00:19:00.680 --> 00:19:04.440
He'll marry and you guys could have
won the game ended up not. You

273
00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:07.799
go into the into a bye week, so you've got a couple of weeks

274
00:19:07.839 --> 00:19:11.319
to chew on this, but just
tell me what your approach has been since

275
00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:17.880
that game. Since that game.
First, the first thing I did with

276
00:19:17.960 --> 00:19:21.240
the players is when we got in
and I asked them what did they learn

277
00:19:21.319 --> 00:19:23.160
from it? It was some things
that, you know, some things happened

278
00:19:23.200 --> 00:19:26.759
selfishly that if we would have put
the team first, the game would have

279
00:19:26.799 --> 00:19:30.119
been over. But that's neither here
nor there. We just went in the

280
00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:33.880
approach with Okay, this whole season
is a journey. It's a learning process

281
00:19:34.039 --> 00:19:38.799
for everybody out there, coaches and
players collectively. So that's the approach we

282
00:19:38.920 --> 00:19:42.000
took first and foremost, what did
we learn from the game? And as

283
00:19:42.079 --> 00:19:45.119
coaches, we went back in the
lab and you know, added some extra

284
00:19:45.240 --> 00:19:49.960
pieces to the office, you know, to make us more explosive on office,

285
00:19:51.039 --> 00:19:53.559
to make us that played better as
a team. And it loosen some

286
00:19:53.880 --> 00:19:56.680
ends, I mean, you spent
it, some loose ends we had as

287
00:19:56.720 --> 00:20:00.640
a whole. So we took it. And more importantly, I let the

288
00:20:00.720 --> 00:20:03.079
players rest just to give them a
chance to miss football, you know,

289
00:20:03.240 --> 00:20:07.319
to get you know, back to
things and be eager to get back to

290
00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:10.799
it. So when you had that
talk with them after the game, What

291
00:20:11.039 --> 00:20:14.319
was the respons or did you get
a sense of a response or how they

292
00:20:14.359 --> 00:20:18.319
were taking it and where you're happy
with what you saw? Uh, it

293
00:20:18.519 --> 00:20:22.680
was it was more so you know, people thinking back to things they could

294
00:20:22.720 --> 00:20:26.240
have did better and you know,
apologizing forward and things of that nature.

295
00:20:26.319 --> 00:20:30.200
And that was a reminder for me
as the head coaches, just to remind

296
00:20:30.319 --> 00:20:33.039
everybody, like everybody's going to have
their chance to mess up in the course

297
00:20:33.119 --> 00:20:37.400
of a game, but we need
to limit those things and limit those mistakes

298
00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:40.559
so we don't have to feel like
this and look like this after game,

299
00:20:40.680 --> 00:20:42.319
especially in front of you know,
our home crowd, which we want to

300
00:20:42.359 --> 00:20:47.599
protect that home field. So we
learned from the game and they were you

301
00:20:47.640 --> 00:20:49.519
know, they didn't take it lightly. They knew that what was at stake.

302
00:20:49.880 --> 00:20:52.519
You know, they loud that we
let one slip away. So we

303
00:20:52.640 --> 00:20:56.000
did everything in our power necessary to
you know, moving forward to not let

304
00:20:56.039 --> 00:20:59.640
it happen again. Right, So
the good news for you guys, as

305
00:20:59.640 --> 00:21:02.599
you're still in first place by half
a game, you're three and one with

306
00:21:02.759 --> 00:21:06.319
those three wins on the road.
So, uh, you you talked about

307
00:21:06.400 --> 00:21:07.960
you know, fixing up some loose
sands, picked doing some things in this

308
00:21:08.160 --> 00:21:11.799
last last couple of weeks. What
are some of those things that you're talking

309
00:21:11.799 --> 00:21:15.960
about? So, you know,
going back to the last game, we

310
00:21:17.079 --> 00:21:19.960
had a new center in who you
know, uh, just wasn't adjusted to

311
00:21:21.119 --> 00:21:23.240
this game, so to speak.
So we bought a Cordell Boost in the

312
00:21:23.319 --> 00:21:27.839
center from last year. That point
of the offense is a key essential part

313
00:21:27.920 --> 00:21:32.599
of our offense that sometimes in a
running game, just looking at it from

314
00:21:32.599 --> 00:21:36.839
a fan perspective, they might not
understand. Okay, they may see us

315
00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:38.920
get two yards when we should have
got twelve. That point, that center

316
00:21:38.960 --> 00:21:44.039
of our offense is essential. And
we added some speed with a young man

317
00:21:44.160 --> 00:21:48.119
named Emetrius Scott on a perimeter at
receiver. So those two things in itself

318
00:21:48.480 --> 00:21:52.839
should make us way more explosive on
offense. Okay, and uh, you

319
00:21:52.920 --> 00:21:56.920
know we've we've talked about your quarterback. He's you know, he was an

320
00:21:56.039 --> 00:22:02.079
offensive Rookie of the Year last year. Um, just how's he taking to,

321
00:22:02.400 --> 00:22:04.839
you know, being a sugar skull
being in your system? How do

322
00:22:04.880 --> 00:22:07.559
you feel he's uh, you know, he's adopted to what you guys are

323
00:22:07.599 --> 00:22:14.519
doing. This week, he excelled
pretty well. He's finally catching on you

324
00:22:14.599 --> 00:22:18.799
know, Uh, this this offense, this system is a little more structured

325
00:22:18.839 --> 00:22:22.240
than what he was used to.
So now he just had to get adjusted

326
00:22:22.279 --> 00:22:23.759
to that, like any quarterback will
have to do in a new system.

327
00:22:25.200 --> 00:22:27.279
This week he hit the ground running. We had some meetings over the off

328
00:22:27.319 --> 00:22:30.519
week to what me and him could
get better on the same page as that,

329
00:22:30.839 --> 00:22:33.319
you know, so he could basically
think like I think while he's out

330
00:22:33.359 --> 00:22:37.480
there on the field. And it
showed this week of practice and I'm excited

331
00:22:37.519 --> 00:22:41.640
to see how he plays this week. What what about what Ramon Atkins do

332
00:22:41.720 --> 00:22:44.920
you like the moster? You know? Uh? In terms of his physical

333
00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:49.079
skills, I mean, what does
he best at? Uh? He's He's

334
00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:55.319
Ramone is best at h when it
comes when it comes to his script.

335
00:22:55.839 --> 00:23:00.000
It stress as a quarterback as his
physicality is his arm script Ramon. If

336
00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:03.720
you look at some of the deep
balls he threw in some of those games,

337
00:23:03.799 --> 00:23:07.519
they were brutiful, they were.
His ball placement on the deep balls

338
00:23:07.599 --> 00:23:10.759
are beautiful. So we have to, you know, work on some thing

339
00:23:10.759 --> 00:23:14.279
as far as his mid range.
And you know he gets the ball out

340
00:23:14.359 --> 00:23:17.839
fast also when need be, when
the hitches. So a lot of quarterbacks

341
00:23:18.079 --> 00:23:22.160
when you throw like short routes,
sorts like hitches and quick out they have

342
00:23:22.319 --> 00:23:26.319
to grab the laces and adjust the
ball to throw them. He's a quarterback

343
00:23:26.359 --> 00:23:30.640
that can get the ball and throw
outs and hitches without the laces, which

344
00:23:30.759 --> 00:23:33.359
is a gift to be able to
do. Actually, got it. Got

345
00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:36.720
it. So when we talked to
the first time a preseason you mentioned that

346
00:23:36.759 --> 00:23:40.359
you feel like he's a much better
pocket passer than for instance, d qwan

347
00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:45.799
Neil, who was here last year. Um do you do you still seeing

348
00:23:45.880 --> 00:23:49.119
that? Is he better in the
pocket? Yeah? He just gotta you

349
00:23:49.200 --> 00:23:52.720
know, that broke the same and
different in some aspects. He just gotta

350
00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:57.200
get used to what we do here
in Tucson. And unfortunately, while the

351
00:23:57.319 --> 00:24:03.039
task we take on his coaches,
it's realizing that you know a young man

352
00:24:03.119 --> 00:24:07.559
that might have had fifteen years of
doing the same thing wrong. It's hard

353
00:24:07.640 --> 00:24:10.759
to fix in a month or two
weeks or three weeks, and it don't

354
00:24:10.799 --> 00:24:12.920
happen on our time, you know. So that's that's what we signed up

355
00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:17.079
for as coaches. But as coaches, we also we put the time in

356
00:24:17.119 --> 00:24:21.440
the working to speed that process up. And this week he looked at the

357
00:24:21.759 --> 00:24:25.880
marvelous in practice and us as a
team offensive defense, we hit the ground

358
00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:29.240
running this week moving forward. Yeah, okay, so well let's let's let's

359
00:24:29.279 --> 00:24:30.960
move over to the defense. You
guys are one of the top defenses in

360
00:24:32.039 --> 00:24:34.759
the in the in the league.
You're facing the top defense in the league

361
00:24:36.119 --> 00:24:38.119
this week in Northern Arizona. But
uh, you know, I mean,

362
00:24:38.160 --> 00:24:41.440
when when I heard that you were
going to be the head coach, I'm

363
00:24:41.440 --> 00:24:45.039
thinking, okay, you know he
heard it's been an offensive coordinator. Let's

364
00:24:45.039 --> 00:24:47.240
see, you know, let's see
how this offense looks. And I don't

365
00:24:47.240 --> 00:24:51.680
know if I wouldn't say defense was
an afterthought, but certainly something that you

366
00:24:51.759 --> 00:24:56.480
know, you you obviously got some
guys to come in and work the defense

367
00:24:56.759 --> 00:24:59.039
to where you're one of the best
in the league. Talk us a little

368
00:24:59.039 --> 00:25:03.480
bit about what you've seen with your
team defensively. That was a point of

369
00:25:03.559 --> 00:25:07.799
this emphasis coming even down from ownership
on the off season. Again, like

370
00:25:07.960 --> 00:25:11.119
you say, everybody knows, you
know, I'm a guy when it comes

371
00:25:11.160 --> 00:25:15.440
to I'm a coach when it comes
to this game that does well on offense.

372
00:25:15.519 --> 00:25:18.599
So it was something to look at
that, you know, no position

373
00:25:18.680 --> 00:25:22.240
as a head coach can I put
together a defense that's coming and competing the

374
00:25:22.400 --> 00:25:27.119
competitive every week, you know,
or getting stopped holding team the minimum points.

375
00:25:27.359 --> 00:25:30.079
Will I hire you the right guy
in place, you know, to

376
00:25:30.319 --> 00:25:34.079
make those things happen. And so
far they've been happening and at a you

377
00:25:34.160 --> 00:25:37.440
know, a great rate for us. You know, defense has been getting

378
00:25:37.519 --> 00:25:41.160
enough stopped even the game we lost
that you know they did, getting enough

379
00:25:41.160 --> 00:25:45.640
stopped that we should have won that
ball game. They've been pulling their weight

380
00:25:45.000 --> 00:25:49.440
from a defensive lime standpoint, a
linebacker standpoint, the secondary is playing well,

381
00:25:49.880 --> 00:25:53.759
just minimizing you know, big plays
when it comes to our defense.

382
00:25:53.880 --> 00:25:57.720
So it came from a lot of
off season granted with me, coach Hendricks

383
00:25:59.400 --> 00:26:03.839
and coach action on that side of
the ball. And then secondly those guys

384
00:26:03.960 --> 00:26:06.960
dying in when they got to Tucson
and this shows, Okay, well,

385
00:26:07.000 --> 00:26:10.960
what do you like bet most about
the defense and what they're doing in terms

386
00:26:11.039 --> 00:26:14.680
of, you know what aspect of
the game. Like you're talking about,

387
00:26:15.000 --> 00:26:17.599
you know, Ramon Atkins a very
physical guyman, what do you like about

388
00:26:17.640 --> 00:26:22.519
your defense? It's something that so
when I got interviewed for this job,

389
00:26:22.640 --> 00:26:29.200
I told, you know, our
owners Cathay guy that we're gonna have organized

390
00:26:29.279 --> 00:26:32.440
chaos on defense. And that's one
thing I talked to coach Hendricks about and

391
00:26:32.519 --> 00:26:36.839
coach Jackson about in the off season. Let's just have organized chaos, meaning

392
00:26:36.960 --> 00:26:40.680
that we know exactly what we're doing, exactly what we should be when we

393
00:26:40.720 --> 00:26:44.519
should be there. But to an
offense, it's confusing. So that's what

394
00:26:44.640 --> 00:26:48.720
we've been doing on defense. We've
been getting those stops because on key downs,

395
00:26:48.039 --> 00:26:52.839
when people are thinking they see one
look, we're moving around and creating

396
00:26:52.839 --> 00:26:56.119
another look and it's confusing the quarterbacks
and receivers. So the one thing we've

397
00:26:56.160 --> 00:27:00.240
been doing well, you know this
first quarter of the season, basically it

398
00:27:00.400 --> 00:27:03.680
is doing well to have the organized
chaos on decent. So talk us a

399
00:27:03.720 --> 00:27:07.200
little bit about what Mike Jones is
meant to you guys. He's, you

400
00:27:07.240 --> 00:27:08.680
know, as we like to say, you know, the face of the

401
00:27:08.839 --> 00:27:12.440
organization in terms of a player.
He's been here every year. He's kind

402
00:27:12.440 --> 00:27:15.720
of a steady guy out there.
What has he been contributing to you guys

403
00:27:15.799 --> 00:27:22.279
this year. I'm just from the
practice standpoint. He set the standard from

404
00:27:22.319 --> 00:27:25.720
a practice standpoint. Also in that
locker room when it comes to practice,

405
00:27:25.799 --> 00:27:29.880
Mike Jones comes to work every day. He comes to work hard every day,

406
00:27:30.240 --> 00:27:33.039
and when we out there on that
field, you'll you'll see Mike Jones

407
00:27:33.079 --> 00:27:34.720
that he doesn't even want to get
out in practice. You know, most

408
00:27:34.759 --> 00:27:37.400
players don't want to get out you
know, when it comes to games,

409
00:27:37.559 --> 00:27:41.559
but they'll you know, relax in
practice. Mike Jones doesn't want to get

410
00:27:41.640 --> 00:27:45.079
out there practice. So when it
comes times to put those work, to

411
00:27:45.119 --> 00:27:48.119
put that extra effort in, He's
been a great, great tool for us,

412
00:27:48.359 --> 00:27:52.519
a great great player for us in
this organization of just setting a standard

413
00:27:52.759 --> 00:27:56.519
this is the way it should be
in Tucson. We come to put the

414
00:27:56.559 --> 00:28:00.160
work in every day here and it's
been a you know, a wonderful thing

415
00:28:00.240 --> 00:28:03.599
that the coaches have got the experience
as well as the players. So you've

416
00:28:03.640 --> 00:28:07.680
got the Northern Arizona Wranglers, who
you know, relatively new franchise but you

417
00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:11.079
know, got out there and won
a championship last year. Um, they're

418
00:28:11.240 --> 00:28:15.039
they're you know, half a game
behind you. So this is an important

419
00:28:15.079 --> 00:28:18.759
game in the standings for you guys. Tell us a little bit about what

420
00:28:18.960 --> 00:28:22.839
we can expect this weekend with the
Wranglers coming in. We expect them to

421
00:28:22.920 --> 00:28:26.000
come play hard. We expect them, you know, we expect their coaches

422
00:28:26.079 --> 00:28:30.599
to tell them that they come to
Tucson to win this game, that they

423
00:28:30.640 --> 00:28:33.799
will be in the first place in
this division, sitting pretty well, you

424
00:28:33.880 --> 00:28:37.160
know, moving forward, and in
quite the contrary on our side, were

425
00:28:37.319 --> 00:28:41.759
very aware of the situation when it
comes to standing. We know that our

426
00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:45.079
division in this Western Conference is a
very tough division and it's a week the

427
00:28:45.119 --> 00:28:49.319
week battle for every team in this
conference from top to bottom. You know,

428
00:28:49.400 --> 00:28:53.519
it's some great coaches around the league, great coaches in this conference as

429
00:28:53.559 --> 00:28:57.400
a whole. So we were very
aware of the situation coming in in this

430
00:28:57.519 --> 00:29:00.200
week. We know that they're coming
in and in first place, and we're

431
00:29:00.279 --> 00:29:04.240
coming in to defend first place and
play well in front our home crowd.

432
00:29:04.359 --> 00:29:08.839
More importantly so this weekend. Uh, you know, it's a pretty good

433
00:29:08.839 --> 00:29:11.480
crowd last week, I mean,
did you feel like you got the atmosphere

434
00:29:11.559 --> 00:29:15.759
that you were hoping for for your
opener? And uh, what are you

435
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:18.759
hoping for this week? Yeah,
it was a crowd. We appreciate it,

436
00:29:18.799 --> 00:29:23.079
and we we you know, we
appreciate every person that came to support

437
00:29:23.160 --> 00:29:26.880
us in that first game, and
it was it was the energy was there

438
00:29:26.960 --> 00:29:30.079
from the start of the game.
Our players felt good about it. You

439
00:29:30.160 --> 00:29:33.079
know, it was a start to
build off. Now, you know,

440
00:29:33.640 --> 00:29:36.720
when it comes to putting us out
there on the field, it's just on

441
00:29:36.920 --> 00:29:40.039
us to you know, do better
and win games in front our home crowd.

442
00:29:40.640 --> 00:29:42.480
To bring that energy in front of
our home crowd in you know,

443
00:29:42.759 --> 00:29:47.200
this week, this's the post single
Damayo party, which they're gonna have five

444
00:29:47.240 --> 00:29:52.200
dollar years and bibbleheads going around crazy
in the facility. So we want everybody

445
00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:55.079
to continue to come out and support
us, and we're going to continue to

446
00:29:55.359 --> 00:29:59.039
come out and play hard for our
home crowd. And this time, you

447
00:29:59.160 --> 00:30:00.839
know, it won't You shouldn't end
like you're end the last game, but

448
00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:04.880
we're very aware of it and we're
very thankful for the turnout. I heard

449
00:30:04.920 --> 00:30:07.319
it, you know, I love
I love how you sound. You sound

450
00:30:07.359 --> 00:30:11.160
like you're having fun. I mean, I know this is you know,

451
00:30:11.400 --> 00:30:14.240
it's a job. It's worked,
but you gotta have you sound like you

452
00:30:14.319 --> 00:30:18.240
haven't having a lot of fun with
this. I really am. And you

453
00:30:18.319 --> 00:30:21.599
know, sometimes if you could ask
some of our players. We also have

454
00:30:21.759 --> 00:30:26.680
meetings here and our meetings that half
five meetings are not even about football.

455
00:30:26.039 --> 00:30:29.799
You know, it's about, Okay, what are we gonna do next?

456
00:30:29.799 --> 00:30:32.319
Because we went out of the boys
and girls club in the community once.

457
00:30:32.440 --> 00:30:34.200
Now it's about what are we gonna
do next in the community? And two

458
00:30:34.279 --> 00:30:37.480
soon? How are we as men? How do you feel today? You

459
00:30:37.599 --> 00:30:41.240
know, like how is what is? You know, what is your thoughts

460
00:30:41.279 --> 00:30:44.359
about life? So we have a
lot of that talk and it makes football

461
00:30:44.440 --> 00:30:47.759
easier. So to answer a question
to you know, just to speak on

462
00:30:47.880 --> 00:30:51.160
what you made reference to. I'm
having a lot of fun because I'm all

463
00:30:51.160 --> 00:30:53.559
about the next generation and young men, and we do it through the game

464
00:30:53.599 --> 00:30:56.480
of football. And there's something I
love to do, and we're gonna build

465
00:30:56.480 --> 00:31:00.920
this thing together, all right.
So you know, and you're not halfway

466
00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:03.839
through your season, but you know, between training camp and whatnot, you

467
00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:08.480
know, you you've kind of moved
along. Our things still seeming new to

468
00:31:08.559 --> 00:31:11.160
the guys or is everybody kind of
settled in and say, okay that you

469
00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:15.240
know, we're getting used to stuff. We know what you know, we

470
00:31:15.319 --> 00:31:18.720
know what we gotta do where we
gotta be. We know, you know,

471
00:31:18.799 --> 00:31:21.839
practice, uh, the way practice
is being done that kind of stuff.

472
00:31:21.839 --> 00:31:25.519
Do you feel like the guys are
settled in, particularly some of the

473
00:31:25.599 --> 00:31:30.599
newer guys I do. I used
to see after this week, this bye

474
00:31:30.640 --> 00:31:33.119
week was well for us. I
think coming in this bye week, it

475
00:31:33.279 --> 00:31:37.359
wasn't no sluggish you know, sometimes
things come back sluggish. From about week

476
00:31:37.759 --> 00:31:41.440
we came back flying around, which
is a great sight to see. You

477
00:31:41.519 --> 00:31:45.839
know, in coaches, a lot
of how we feel is what we see

478
00:31:45.160 --> 00:31:48.960
out there on the field throughout the
week. That's how we feel going into

479
00:31:49.039 --> 00:31:52.680
a game. So going into this
game, from what we put out there

480
00:31:52.839 --> 00:31:56.240
on the practice week, all of
us as a unit, we feel good.

481
00:31:56.359 --> 00:32:00.400
So I think guys are really really
coming into their own in Tucson and

482
00:32:00.519 --> 00:32:06.200
starting to get familiar with how things
here goes Howard structured. And you know,

483
00:32:06.599 --> 00:32:09.039
from there you kind of see that, Okay, the players are taking

484
00:32:09.079 --> 00:32:12.119
over. Hey we should be here
this time. They are here. They're

485
00:32:12.160 --> 00:32:15.160
ready to go. You know,
even if you know, they don't have

486
00:32:15.279 --> 00:32:17.440
to wait on coaches per se,
because they know what's going on on a

487
00:32:17.519 --> 00:32:20.920
day to day basis. Right.
All right, Herris, Well, good

488
00:32:21.000 --> 00:32:23.119
luck tomorrow. We'll see if we
can get the place packed a little bit.

489
00:32:23.240 --> 00:32:27.640
Then get get babbled, get a
battle ahead of what the first thousand

490
00:32:27.720 --> 00:32:30.880
is that who gets a bobble ahead
tomorrow the first thousand, come in and

491
00:32:30.960 --> 00:32:35.119
get a bobblehead. Let's go crazy
now tomorrow night. Let's have a fun

492
00:32:35.319 --> 00:32:39.680
hype atmosphere with some of those five
dollars drinks and nachos and every single hope

493
00:32:39.680 --> 00:32:42.759
to see everybody there. All right, Hurris, thanks a bunch, We

494
00:32:42.839 --> 00:32:47.119

495
00:32:47.200 --> 00:32:51.039
Tuson shut because look, the guy
is always upbeat. I'm telling you.

496
00:32:51.440 --> 00:32:53.279
After the game, I mean,
it was a it was a I'm gonna

497
00:32:53.440 --> 00:32:57.319
it was a terrible loss. If
they knocked down to Hill Mary at the

498
00:32:57.400 --> 00:32:59.359
end of the game, last play
the game, they win the game,

499
00:32:59.559 --> 00:33:01.680
they did, they go to overtime, they lose. We get, you

500
00:33:01.759 --> 00:33:06.039
know, we get an interview with
him on the field right after the game.

501
00:33:06.680 --> 00:33:08.279
He was smiling. It was like, you know, I mean,

502
00:33:08.359 --> 00:33:13.799
I know the loss stung, but
he was you know, he was like,

503
00:33:14.319 --> 00:33:16.920
he didn't look at me, didn't
look really pissed off. But I

504
00:33:17.079 --> 00:33:22.000
know he was right, but he
didn't. He didn't, you know,

505
00:33:22.440 --> 00:33:24.160
project that. And so he goes
to talk to his guys. Yeah,

506
00:33:24.160 --> 00:33:29.480
they're always gonna be those those fans, like fans who you know, assume

507
00:33:29.559 --> 00:33:30.240
that they know what he feels like. They're gonna be like, oh,

508
00:33:30.279 --> 00:33:34.920
he looks so how he's a terrible
coach, Like he's not right. And

509
00:33:35.200 --> 00:33:37.440
what I saw it was this guy
doesn't is not going to let a loss

510
00:33:37.480 --> 00:33:39.599
like that kill him. And he
didn't and you know, and hopefully that

511
00:33:39.640 --> 00:33:44.000
shows tomorrow when they get on the
field. So got to reflected it seems

512
00:33:44.039 --> 00:33:45.200
so yeah, that's that's like,
that's all you could ask for him,

513
00:33:45.279 --> 00:33:46.640
right, you know, and well, you know, we'll get a player

514
00:33:46.720 --> 00:33:49.960
on and we'll ask him about stuff
like that. But they you know,

515
00:33:50.039 --> 00:33:52.000
we we had Carrington Thompson a while
back, you know, the wide receiver,

516
00:33:52.079 --> 00:33:54.720
and he basically said he just loves
you know, he loves her his

517
00:33:54.799 --> 00:33:59.440
chin because he seems so always so
upbeat. So pretty good, all right,

518
00:33:59.519 --> 00:34:01.880
So that game is tomorrow six o'clock. I'll be on the air on

519

523
00:34:16.920 --> 00:34:20.639
So let's take a break. We're
gonna come back. There's a statement out

524
00:34:20.679 --> 00:34:22.920
from the UFA on Jaden Delora,
so we'll go through that. I know

525
00:34:23.280 --> 00:34:28.360
Gabriel's gonna call, we'll talk to
him. I've also got a comment from

526
00:34:28.960 --> 00:34:31.679
a former juvenile court judge. There's
a lot of questions about why didn't Jaden

527
00:34:31.719 --> 00:34:37.679
Delora do jail time? Why was
he allowed to you know, why wasn't

528
00:34:37.719 --> 00:34:42.199
this a part of his Why didn't
everybody know about this? So we'll get

529
00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:46.519
into the whole issue with Jaden Delaora
uh and his and his uh the sexual

530
00:34:46.559 --> 00:34:50.480
assault thing that he had back in
Hawaii. So stick around for all of

531
00:34:50.559 --> 00:34:53.679
that. It'll be interesting. If

years. Now. Take a look back

533
00:34:58.199 --> 00:35:00.000
at the Ludolson era. In my
new book, Lestens from Loot. It

534
00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:04.039
was a labor of love through the
eyes of twenty five former players, coaches,

535
00:35:04.079 --> 00:35:07.400
and friends to give insight to the
coach and the man who led them,

536
00:35:07.639 --> 00:35:10.039
competed against them, and inspired them. Twenty five chapters for his twenty

537
00:35:10.079 --> 00:35:15.360
five years as Arizona's beloved coach.
Lessons from Loot is an insight to how

538
00:35:15.400 --> 00:35:20.159
he built the program into a national
powerhouse. What one email me at Steve

00:38:06.440 --> 00:38:12.159
Jay Gonzalez on Fox Sports fourteen fifty. Welcome back to the balling on Fox

577
00:38:12.199 --> 00:38:15.199
Sports fourteen fifty. I'm your host
today, Jay Gonzalez. My partner,

578
00:38:15.280 --> 00:38:19.800
Steve Rivera is out today and he'll
be out on Monday as well. I've

579
00:38:19.840 --> 00:38:22.559
got no one here running the board
and keeping me company. And uh,

580
00:38:23.159 --> 00:38:27.039
you've got a lot of stuff to
talk about. So, as I mentioned

581
00:38:27.039 --> 00:38:31.679
before, we hit the break.
There's an athletic department issued their statement regarding

582
00:38:31.760 --> 00:38:35.679
Jayden Delora. Here it is.
It's a very it's a short statement.

583
00:38:36.360 --> 00:38:38.400
I'll read it and then both No
and I will respond to it. We

584
00:38:38.480 --> 00:38:42.000
want to take your calls on this. We've already got a caller on hold

585
00:38:42.599 --> 00:38:45.000
who wants to talk about this.
But I've also got it. I've also

586
00:38:45.039 --> 00:38:47.159
got a comment from a juvenile court, a former juvenal court judge that I

587
00:38:47.239 --> 00:38:51.199
want to read to you. That
will bring a little bit of clarity to

588
00:38:51.320 --> 00:38:53.920
why Jayden never did any jail time, why his records were sealed, all

589
00:38:53.960 --> 00:38:57.960
that kind of stuff. So here's
a statement from the u of A in

590
00:38:58.079 --> 00:39:01.360
the fall of twenty twenty two,
after complaint was filed. The keyword there's

591
00:39:01.480 --> 00:39:07.679
after a civil complaint was filed against
football student athlete Jaden de Laura. The

592
00:39:07.880 --> 00:39:12.440
University of Arizona first became aware of
a twenty eighteen incident evolving de Laura,

593
00:39:12.480 --> 00:39:15.440
which occurred while he was in high
school in Hawaii. After reviewing the matter,

594
00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:21.440
the determination was made to allow de
Laura to continue as a student athlete

595
00:39:21.679 --> 00:39:27.559
and his status remains unchanged. End
a statement, that's it. You know

596
00:39:27.679 --> 00:39:31.960
and having been involved in public relations
where you had to get lawyers in and

597
00:39:32.039 --> 00:39:36.280
stuff like this, This took them
twenty four hours or a little more than

598
00:39:36.320 --> 00:39:39.320
twenty four hours to craft. I'm
telling lawyers at the highest level at the

599
00:39:39.400 --> 00:39:45.119
UFA were involved in this. This
was carefully crafted. And what it says

600
00:39:45.239 --> 00:39:49.719
is his status remains unchanged. There's
already people on social media said they've left

601
00:39:49.760 --> 00:39:53.719
the door open to maybe do something
later, saying today he's still on the

602
00:39:53.800 --> 00:39:59.559
football team and nothing is different from
yesterday to the day before. The question

603
00:39:59.679 --> 00:40:01.440
I I know a lot of people
had was why didn't the u of A

604
00:40:01.639 --> 00:40:07.000
know about this before he got here
or you know, when when they were

605
00:40:07.079 --> 00:40:12.320
recruiting him. And the key to
that is the whole thing wasn't done in

606
00:40:12.440 --> 00:40:16.239
juvenile court. It was all sealed. Uh, there's nothing available. Nobody

607
00:40:16.320 --> 00:40:21.880
has any details of what happened other
than what's now contained in the civil complaint,

608
00:40:22.239 --> 00:40:24.480
which is what the u of A
now I'm sure has in its hands.

609
00:40:25.079 --> 00:40:30.079
Um. You know, in my
time as a as a reporter,

610
00:40:30.519 --> 00:40:32.679
I got to know a lot of
judges here in town, and I got

611
00:40:32.960 --> 00:40:39.199
I got just a comment from a
former juvenal court judge who had this to

612
00:40:39.320 --> 00:40:44.800
say, because because there's so many
questions about why did all this get handled

613
00:40:44.880 --> 00:40:50.079
uh in a in juvenile court and
not as an adulter or whatever. I

614
00:40:50.159 --> 00:40:53.920
got permission to read this. The
juvenile court is about second chances, rehabilitation,

615
00:40:54.199 --> 00:40:59.800
anonymity, and restorative justice. In
Arizona, he would have been transferred

616
00:40:59.840 --> 00:41:04.840
to adult court. Remember the amendment
to the state constitution do adult crime do

617
00:41:04.960 --> 00:41:09.320
adult time quotes? He would have
faced mandatory time and lifetime sex registration.

618
00:41:10.199 --> 00:41:16.679
Um, the thing says a sexual
Um. Uh, I can't think of

619
00:41:16.679 --> 00:41:21.800
the word, but anyways, Um, the consent talking point is nonsense.

620
00:41:21.880 --> 00:41:27.159
The victim was a juvenile legally incapable
of consent, and the consent argument was

621
00:41:27.239 --> 00:41:31.239
something that's been made by Dolores Friend. Uh. You know that that he

622
00:41:32.079 --> 00:41:36.519
claimed that the thing was consensual.
And what this is saying is that at

623
00:41:36.559 --> 00:41:39.519
sixteen years old, you're not capable
of giving consent to something like that.

624
00:41:39.679 --> 00:41:45.360
So, but the thing is another
key word, and there's anonymity and second

625
00:41:45.440 --> 00:41:49.480
chances. This was handled at the
juvenile court level so that more or less

626
00:41:49.679 --> 00:41:53.039
all of these people can go on
with their lives. Now, you know,

627
00:41:53.119 --> 00:41:55.159
the victim has to deal with this
the rest of her life, as

628
00:41:55.280 --> 00:41:59.559
you know, as does Jayden,
as does the other the other athlete whose

629
00:41:59.559 --> 00:42:01.960
it was. But the victim,
you know, and I said this at

630
00:42:02.000 --> 00:42:07.320
the top of the show yesterday,
She's gonna have a lifetime of this being

631
00:42:07.440 --> 00:42:12.280
part of her past. And that's
not easy. It's not you know what.

632
00:42:12.559 --> 00:42:15.639
She may have already had some you
know, some therapy over this,

633
00:42:15.800 --> 00:42:17.440
she may have to have some later
on in her life. You know,

634
00:42:17.519 --> 00:42:20.920
she's gonna have kids. Is she
going to talk to kids about it?

635
00:42:21.079 --> 00:42:22.159
You know, so many things that
go with this, so you know,

636
00:42:22.239 --> 00:42:25.400
again, first consideration has to be
to her. But for some reason,

637
00:42:25.480 --> 00:42:30.159
in Hawaii, this was handled at
the juvenile court level. Everything was sealed,

638
00:42:30.599 --> 00:42:35.280
so there was there was no way
for Arizona or Wisconsin to know about

639
00:42:35.360 --> 00:42:37.960
this. And so I'm not trying
to defend what defend that, I'm just

640
00:42:38.000 --> 00:42:42.960
saying that's a fact. So unless
Jade Delora was going to come and say,

641
00:42:42.960 --> 00:42:45.519
oh, by the way, if
you look into my past, I

642
00:42:45.679 --> 00:42:46.880
had this, that was the only
way they're gonna find out about it.

643
00:42:46.920 --> 00:42:52.320
And again, if the intent was
to seal it so that they could all

644
00:42:52.400 --> 00:42:57.159
move on, why was he going
to say that right. So, so

645
00:42:57.360 --> 00:43:00.199
now here's the deal. They found
out about it because of this lawsuit.

646
00:43:00.760 --> 00:43:06.159
Delora and the other player had had
to settle this lawsuit. They've given this

647
00:43:06.360 --> 00:43:10.679
victim and her family some money,
I guess, and an apology and the

648
00:43:10.800 --> 00:43:15.000
case has been settled and it's done, and all of this is now done.

649
00:43:15.679 --> 00:43:17.199
So the question has become, what
do you do with Jaden Delora?

650
00:43:17.320 --> 00:43:22.760
So this is what the u of
A's a statement says. Wisconsin was a

651
00:43:22.840 --> 00:43:25.280
similar statement that they didn't know about
it until the civil suit came out.

652
00:43:25.880 --> 00:43:30.000
Now they know about it. That
player's status remains the same. So let's

653
00:43:30.000 --> 00:43:34.039
go and take this call and see
what see what Gabriel has to say about

654
00:43:34.079 --> 00:43:37.880
this. Hi, Gabriel, you're
on the air, Yes, Hi.

655
00:43:37.880 --> 00:43:45.320
So, UM, I was gonna
talk about about Jaden Delora's going to happen.

656
00:43:45.920 --> 00:43:52.599
So I'm happy that Arizona came up
with the same man because I was

657
00:43:52.760 --> 00:43:57.199
kind of worry about it because I
hope that they get in front of get

658
00:43:57.320 --> 00:44:06.360
in front of UM again from the
news and also and UM and and also

659
00:44:06.719 --> 00:44:13.559
UM. They need to do an
internal investigation to see if they knew about

660
00:44:13.639 --> 00:44:21.360
it or if they didn't and I
don't know which punishment would be. Okay,

661
00:44:21.440 --> 00:44:23.039
let me ask you this, do
you think he should be punished in

662
00:44:23.159 --> 00:44:31.760
some form? I think he should
be not played for one game? Okay?

663
00:44:31.960 --> 00:44:37.400
One game suspension? Yeah, one
game suspension? Okay? Are you

664
00:44:37.599 --> 00:44:40.119
Are you okay with the rest of
the statement? I mean, are you

665
00:44:40.199 --> 00:44:45.199
okay with the fact that Arizona did
not know about this? And I didn't

666
00:44:45.239 --> 00:44:49.440
know. I didn't I don't know
what they said. Okay. What they

667
00:44:49.519 --> 00:44:52.480
said was they did not they didn't
were not aware of this until the level

668
00:44:52.599 --> 00:44:59.199
until the last fall when the civil
lawsuit came to became public and or they

669
00:44:59.400 --> 00:45:01.880
they you know, was filed,
So they didn't know about it until last

670
00:45:01.920 --> 00:45:06.320
fall. I mean, I don't
know. I don't know how they would

671
00:45:06.320 --> 00:45:07.119
have found out about it. But
you know, what are your thoughts on

672
00:45:07.239 --> 00:45:13.840
that? I believe what they said. I've seen they didn't know about it

673
00:45:15.400 --> 00:45:21.239
until Jaden Delora transfer into Arizona.
But like I said, I don't think

674
00:45:21.360 --> 00:45:24.880
Key needs to be kicked off as
the team and I think he just needs

675
00:45:24.920 --> 00:45:30.480
to be suspended for one game,
and then can't I just say two more

676
00:45:30.559 --> 00:45:37.159
things? Sure? So I'm just
gonna Arizona's first first game is on September

677
00:45:37.239 --> 00:45:45.239
the fair correct, correct, So
three months before the first game. This

678
00:45:45.800 --> 00:45:51.480
may sound really harsh, but justin
lockin politics, the American public has an

679
00:45:51.480 --> 00:46:00.679
attentional span of a goldfish. They
do. And I sure know that the

680
00:46:00.000 --> 00:46:07.119
Niama Falls at Asu are and are
making fun of us. So yeah,

681
00:46:07.239 --> 00:46:10.360
whatever, I'm sure they are.
I'm sure they are. All right,

682
00:46:10.360 --> 00:46:13.760
Gabriel, thank you for your phone
call, Thank you for your comments.

683
00:46:14.960 --> 00:46:19.079
Thank you you guys, you rock. Thank you. All right, let's

684
00:46:19.079 --> 00:46:21.480
take some more calls on that.
Five two zero four one, six seventy

685
00:46:21.519 --> 00:46:22.719
four forty The question, the question
now becomes, you know, what do

686
00:46:22.760 --> 00:46:27.280
you do with Jaden Delora? Do
you suspend him a game, a couple

687
00:46:27.280 --> 00:46:31.280
of games? Do nothing? Um? You know again going back to a

688
00:46:31.400 --> 00:46:34.760
comment that was made to me,
you know, a big deal now with

689
00:46:34.960 --> 00:46:37.159
Jayden Delorias, you know, how
does he respond to this? What does

690
00:46:37.239 --> 00:46:40.440
he do? You know? Does
he does he continue to show remorse for

691
00:46:40.559 --> 00:46:45.280
this? Is he is he uh? You know, empathetic with the victim?

692
00:46:45.679 --> 00:46:49.559
Does you know? Is he gonna? Is he gonna? I don't

693
00:46:49.559 --> 00:46:51.920
know how you turn something like this
to a positive, but is he gonna

694
00:46:51.960 --> 00:46:55.960
do something, you know, in
his life to kind of rectify, not

695
00:46:57.079 --> 00:47:01.159
rectified, but just to um just
to show that he knows that what he

696
00:47:01.239 --> 00:47:07.800
did was completely wrong. Right.
I mean, I think I'm not honestly,

697
00:47:07.840 --> 00:47:09.599
I'm not surprised that this type of
stuff happens for Arizona football, just

698
00:47:09.679 --> 00:47:14.400
because it's like, like, I
don't think anyone should be surprised that if

699
00:47:14.440 --> 00:47:17.199
there's like any team, happens everywhere. But it's like, just yeah,

700
00:47:17.639 --> 00:47:20.960
that's the thing. It's like here
especially, It's like I'm not I'm not

701
00:47:21.159 --> 00:47:23.719
like shocked. I just don't understand
how they didn't know, like if they

702
00:47:23.760 --> 00:47:28.559
put no effort into that, because
wasn't this like ongoing. Well here's the

703
00:47:28.639 --> 00:47:31.880
thing, you know, they found
out about it when something became public over

704
00:47:32.000 --> 00:47:37.760
this, which was the civil lawsuit. What I would think is that now

705
00:47:37.320 --> 00:47:43.119
may or maybe going forward, whether
it's probably legal. It's like you ask,

706
00:47:43.840 --> 00:47:47.920
Okay, is there something about your
past that I ought to know?

707
00:47:50.800 --> 00:47:53.119
You know that that you think if
we find out about because I know,

708
00:47:53.800 --> 00:47:57.320
you know, you kind of get
asset in job interviews, right, you

709
00:47:57.400 --> 00:48:00.760
know, you know, or if
you're running for a political office, right,

710
00:48:00.880 --> 00:48:06.320
your handlers are going to say,
Okay, what's in your past that

711
00:48:07.280 --> 00:48:12.480
we should we should know about that
if if you're running for office, or

712
00:48:12.480 --> 00:48:16.719
if you're in this high, high
level position or highly visible position, that

713
00:48:16.840 --> 00:48:20.840
it's going to embarrass the hell out
of us. Is there anything out there

714
00:48:21.840 --> 00:48:24.360
maybe that becomes part of a I
don't know if they you know, if

715
00:48:24.400 --> 00:48:29.679
somebody's getting recruited, if they have
to fill out a questionnaire or they're interviewed

716
00:48:29.760 --> 00:48:32.679
or whatever. Let's take this call
real quick. Higher on the are and

717
00:48:32.840 --> 00:48:39.400
on the ball, Hi, guys, it's Jim Hey, Jim more.

718
00:48:39.599 --> 00:48:46.519
When this happened, he was sixteen
years old and in the case who was

719
00:48:46.639 --> 00:48:51.840
totally sealed when he left there.
Yes, it was all done at the

720
00:48:51.920 --> 00:48:55.760
juvenile court level. Um if he
got put on probation, it was only

721
00:48:57.039 --> 00:49:00.199
up until he became an adult.
Everything was under the jewel court. Uh,

722
00:49:00.400 --> 00:49:04.440
Austins, He did not. He
was not you know, tried or

723
00:49:04.559 --> 00:49:07.760
sentenced or anything as an adult.
Everything was in the juvenile court. And

724
00:49:07.960 --> 00:49:19.119
does anybody know what he actually did? According according to the lawsuit, this

725
00:49:19.320 --> 00:49:22.920
was in the civil Uh. In
the civil lawsuit was that he lured a

726
00:49:22.000 --> 00:49:28.280
girl into a stairwell with his friend
and they forced her to have sex with

727
00:49:28.400 --> 00:49:35.400
them. Oh and that's and he
pleaded guilty to the charge. Okay,

728
00:49:35.519 --> 00:49:39.440
as a juvenile, he's he's settled
the case with He and the other player

729
00:49:39.480 --> 00:49:43.599
have both settled the case with the
girl. So they've basically admitted to what

730
00:49:44.159 --> 00:49:47.159
has alleged to have what they've alleged
to have happened. So we can't say,

731
00:49:47.199 --> 00:49:50.880
we're not gonna sit here and say, you know, he allegedly did

732
00:49:50.920 --> 00:49:53.320
this. He allegedly did that.
He's admitted to doing the things that that

733
00:49:53.840 --> 00:50:00.519
that the victim claims that he did. Yeah, that's that's which to get

734
00:50:00.559 --> 00:50:07.280
for his exactly it does it.
There wasn't a trial or anything. He

735
00:50:07.320 --> 00:50:12.760
pleaded guilty, both of them did. It makes me wonder how he even

736
00:50:12.800 --> 00:50:15.480
got away away. Well, that's
that's the thing. Um. You know

737
00:50:15.599 --> 00:50:20.440
this uhot former juvenile court judge that
you know sent me a little I just

738
00:50:20.559 --> 00:50:23.360
asked him. You know, he
said, in Arizona, even at sixteen,

739
00:50:23.440 --> 00:50:27.519
he would have been he would have
been handled as an adult in Arizona.

740
00:50:27.920 --> 00:50:30.079
This happened in Hawaii. They didn't
do that in Hawaii. Whatever the

741
00:50:30.159 --> 00:50:36.000
reasoning was back there. Uh,
that's that's what happened, and they labeled

742
00:50:36.000 --> 00:50:43.440
it a sexual or sexual assault.
But he's not I read somewhere he is

743

746
00:50:57.920 --> 00:51:00.559
