00:00:55.280 --> 00:00:59.159
your easy come in if you want. We can talk about that anyway.

13
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:02.520
As far as breaking news goes for
today, we're gonna go ahead and start

14
00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:06.920
with the newest update in the Michigan
scandal. Michigan and Jim Harbob going ahead

15
00:01:06.959 --> 00:01:11.480
and pulled their litigation against the Conference
for the three game suspension. He's going

16
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:14.599
to accept that and he will not
be on the sideline for their final two

17
00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:18.439
games and the game this weekend against
Maryland where they could win their one thousand

18
00:01:18.760 --> 00:01:25.200
game as a program. Okay,
I mean, you know, the bigger

19
00:01:25.239 --> 00:01:26.879
deal is going to be what the
n C DOUBLEA does, right, the

20
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:32.319
n C Double A, you know, punish them, Will they do it

21
00:01:32.319 --> 00:01:36.959
further? Will they do it this
year? That's expled if they're not gonna

22
00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:41.079
do anything after the season just because
of the process that's in the rules.

23
00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:44.680
They can win a national title and
then be affected in all all the you're

24
00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:47.680
not national champions the well, but
see the n C Double A can't do

25
00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:49.840
that because the College Football Playoff is
not part of the n C Double A.

26
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:53.280
You know, but they can make
them vacate all their wins or something

27
00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:57.599
like that. But you know,
you win if they win the College Football

28
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:00.799
Playoff. They win the college football
Playoff because the nc double are no jurisdiction

29
00:02:00.879 --> 00:02:05.239
in that. So but you know, and they can't stop them from they

30
00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:07.840
can't stop them from playing. Yah. Yeah, all right, Next we

31
00:02:07.919 --> 00:02:13.479
got the Virginia Attorney General is has
sent a letter of demand to the n

32
00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:16.319
C Double A, threatening legal action
if they do not change the rule that

33
00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:23.560
it currently excludes the undefeated JMU football
team from the New York six Bulls.

34
00:02:23.919 --> 00:02:27.800
Right, they lost their appeal,
yes, or they lost the announced they

35
00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:30.400
lost their appeal last night, and
then the Attorney General sent this in this

36
00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:34.120
morning kind of saying like this rule
is unfair. Yeah, they're actually threatening

37
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:37.719
an anti trust lawsuit. The thing
is they knew the rules going in.

38
00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:40.000
It's not it's not unfair because these
are the rules. And now they say,

39
00:02:40.039 --> 00:02:43.560
well, we don't like the rules
because we're having a great year.

40
00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:47.719
I mean, I get, I
understand, but you knew the rules going

41
00:02:47.719 --> 00:02:53.919
in, so I don't know,
you know, stop. Yeah, And

42
00:02:53.039 --> 00:02:55.439
I think if they weren't so good, maybe they wouldn't have right, if

43
00:02:55.439 --> 00:02:59.439
they were five and six, they
wouldn't get you know, there wouldn't be

44
00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:05.360
this would be or on. Yeah, Jameis Winston, what about Jameis Winston.

45
00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:08.400
He's actually gonna it's a good news
this time. NY New Jersey retired

46
00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:15.199
by UH before this weekend, UH
for their game upcoming against North Alabama.

47
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:16.840
Okay, so it should be a
good night to do that. We're gonna

48
00:03:16.840 --> 00:03:23.240
say he took some more crab legs
from somewhere. MLB has announced the next

49
00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:25.439
couple of all Star Games. So
the Braves are going to get the twenty

50
00:03:25.439 --> 00:03:29.560
twenty five All Star Game after they
got twenty twenty one taken away from them.

51
00:03:29.719 --> 00:03:32.199
Oh okay, Philly, I thought
this is pretty interesting. Philly's gonna

52
00:03:32.199 --> 00:03:37.080
be given a twenty twenty six All
Star Game because it is the two hundred

53
00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:40.800
and fiftieth anniversary of the signing of
the Declaration of Independence. Okay, so

54
00:03:40.840 --> 00:03:46.719
that's why Philadelphia is getting twenty But
baseball teams that at the time above my

55
00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:53.759
pay grade, and then the Rangers
get will get next year's Rangers have next

56
00:03:53.800 --> 00:03:59.159
year. Yeah, Okay, the
Big Twelve and the WWE are coming together

57
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:02.319
on a partnership for this year's championship
game. There's gonna be a collaboration logo

58
00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:05.479
on the field, and then the
most outstanding player will get their own customized

59
00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:11.080
championship built. Okay, but he
doesn't have to go wrestle for it or

60
00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:14.560
anything like that. We could,
we could dream, but no, that's

61
00:04:14.599 --> 00:04:20.639
an interesting relationship there. Yeah,
but as WW country over there, most

62
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:25.360
people get that get serious into that. People love that stuff. I mean

63
00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:27.480
I did as a kid, you
know, I really like that stuff as

64
00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:33.120
a kid. But thankfully you've grown
up, it's not real. What we'll

65
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:39.360
talk about that after Fox Sports anchor
Carrissa Thompson as has been in a little

66
00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:42.720
bit of hot water today for some
things she said to Barstools Sports. She

67
00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:45.319
came out and said, go ahead. No, she came out and said

68
00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:47.519
that despite having said it before,
she's not been fired. But she used

69
00:04:47.519 --> 00:04:50.959
to make up some of her sideline
reports from coaches saying, you know,

70
00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:55.199
she just couldn't get the interview with
a head coach coming off the field,

71
00:04:55.240 --> 00:04:58.000
so she might go into her stand
up and say, well, they talked

72
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:00.360
about needing to be tougher on third
downs, executing better and just kind of

73
00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:04.560
saying coach speak that never actually was
said by that coach. So you said

74
00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:09.000
hot water? Did you see some
blowback? Now people on the internet are

75
00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:13.399
just making fun of you. Wow, there's there there is from other females

76
00:05:13.519 --> 00:05:17.199
sideline or there's no question. Yes, as they should be as they should

77
00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:19.439
be because they should be. You
know, you got somebody said, you

78
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:25.279
know again, everybody else's credibility goes
into the crapper because of her right and

79
00:05:25.319 --> 00:05:29.560
they're upset. I mean, Steve, I know, hey, you know

80
00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:31.360
you're talking to somebody I don't even
know how to go this way because I

81
00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:36.560
could sell sexist or whatever it's for
anybody who may know. But how did

82
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:40.000
why did she get away with it? That's my kind of point where I

83
00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:43.160
want to go with. If you're
a coach, if I'm a Maryland coach

84
00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:46.199
with the well House state coach and
that what he she said she talked to

85
00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:48.040
me? Why did he say she
never talked to me? Yeah? Does

86
00:05:48.079 --> 00:05:51.240
it make sense to makes it makes
total sense? I mean that's how and

87
00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:54.199
that's how you find those things out. You know, we said, well

88
00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:57.240
do you never talk to me?
Right? You know? So how do

89
00:05:57.279 --> 00:06:00.439
you? You know? What are
you saying? And and again it's just

90
00:06:00.839 --> 00:06:04.360
a geat. You know these h
you know, the sideline reporters. They're

91
00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:12.519
half entertainers half journalists, right,
but there's still there's still a bit of

92
00:06:12.600 --> 00:06:16.639
journalism in that because they're reporting on
something that's supposed to be happening. I

93
00:06:16.680 --> 00:06:21.600
write about this every note and again
when every basketball season they scored the basketball,

94
00:06:21.600 --> 00:06:25.920
what the hell else they scored?
They're shooting the basketball, they're scoring.

95
00:06:26.279 --> 00:06:30.399
So so the halftime they go and
talk to Behan for two minutes or

96
00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:33.439
a minute or what are two questions. The most useless interview you'll ever need,

97
00:06:33.800 --> 00:06:36.120
the most useless. I mean,
okay, so we didn't shoot the

98
00:06:36.160 --> 00:06:40.040
ball, Well we saw it,
of course, What do you need that

99
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:42.839
quote? What do you write?
And how often do they ask a question

100
00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:46.360
that doesn't get answered? Right,
they're not gonna you know, Nick Saban

101
00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:48.079
is a master at that. Yeah, you know, you can ask him

102
00:06:48.079 --> 00:06:50.319
anything you want. He's gonna say
whatever. He's gonna say, right,

103
00:06:50.800 --> 00:06:54.399
you know, And there are others
who are like that. They're pointing to

104
00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:59.079
me, there's the point. They
are very pointless. There's pointless as the

105
00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:03.040
interviews from the got Yeah, we're
actually just going to bring up they've been

106
00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:06.959
they've been going down to the bench
and sending a reporter in during the game

107
00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:10.319
to talk to people that just cut
off the eyes. Well, they did

108
00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:14.000
that, turn going. They did
that during the Major League play Major League

109
00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:19.240
Baseball playoffs. They were talking to
players who were in the game, you

110
00:07:19.240 --> 00:07:21.600
know, during the inning. Well, the Indian is going on. Now.

111
00:07:21.680 --> 00:07:25.439
What I do like, I do
like because I think it's fun is

112
00:07:25.439 --> 00:07:28.079
when they when they put a microphone
on a guy who's out in the field.

113
00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:32.560
That's really cool. But the whole
You know how that home run feel?

114
00:07:32.680 --> 00:07:35.759
Yeah, blah blah blah. Good. I don't know. Yeah,

115
00:07:35.879 --> 00:07:39.720
it's pointless. It doesn't make any
sense to me. And I don't even

116
00:07:39.759 --> 00:07:42.920
know. Then they'll say, oh, the the the the the listeners,

117
00:07:42.920 --> 00:07:46.279
will the viewers want to hear it. No they don't. They're just creating

118
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:47.120
a cat and house thing and they
want to hear it. No they don't.

119
00:07:47.639 --> 00:07:51.560
The research says it does, No, it doesn't. Bottom line is,

120
00:07:51.600 --> 00:07:56.160
you can't make stuff up. I
don't care. I don't care what

121
00:07:56.720 --> 00:08:00.439
your situation is. You can't make
stuff up. I think you should be

122
00:08:00.439 --> 00:08:05.160
fired. I really, I see
her getting in trouble somehow. I think

123
00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:07.160
she should be fired. That's a
tough that's a tough thing. That's a

124
00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:09.839
tough thing. I think it's just
I think it's unfortunately because you do,

125
00:08:11.160 --> 00:08:13.720
even if it's a small way to
shift the narrative just a little bit,

126
00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:16.000
because that you know, people want
to listen to what their head coach might

127
00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:18.639
have to say, what adjustments they
might be able to expect going into the

128
00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:20.639
next half. But yeah, can't
you make a stuff up? Well,

129
00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:28.199
there's another issue. She's another person
who's falling forward that yeah, Yeah,

130
00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:31.639
I don't know, it's just it's
just, you know, the credibility of

131
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:39.240
journalists is bad enough as it is
without somebody admitting that they lie exactly.

132
00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:43.399
Yeah, I got two more things
for you guys. First things First,

133
00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:46.320
we want to welcome back to Deem
Carry this weekend as the honorary captain for

134
00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:50.360
the U of A football team for
Saturday's game against youtah. Have you seen

135
00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:52.080
him lately? I've seen him a
couple of times. She looks good.

136
00:08:52.159 --> 00:08:56.120
You lost a lot of weight,
he's leaned. Uh, he's not this

137
00:08:56.279 --> 00:09:01.600
big, which made him very durable, right, but now he's not as

138
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:07.440
durable over there because he doesn't have
to be. Yeah. Well good,

139
00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:11.919
yeah again, what sort of one
of the underrated great ones? Right?

140
00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:15.639
He was so damn good? Yeah, but then you know his NFL career

141
00:09:15.639 --> 00:09:18.080
didn't materialize, but he just kind
of you know, and you know,

142
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:22.000
and plus he's a local kid who
do you think has some more notoriety too

143
00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:26.879
or you know what, rhadoriz is
not the right word, Scooby, or

144
00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:31.120
could he even carry? I think
Scooby, I know, for odd reasons,

145
00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:33.159
right, yeah, because Carrie had
a better career. Yeah, so

146
00:09:33.320 --> 00:09:37.440
that's to your point. Yeah,
no it is. And you know,

147
00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:39.039
I'm not sure why, but yeah, no, I think I think Scooby

148
00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:43.759
is. You know, he's more
at the top of the list, right

149
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:48.960
whatever, for whatever reason. And
then the last thing for today, the

176
00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:26.759
Yeah, let's let's one just go. We got it. Well, we

177
00:11:26.840 --> 00:11:28.279
should got three minutes. We got
three minutes when we get us to four

178
00:11:28.360 --> 00:11:33.720
fifteen, the actual time we I
told recond him at for eighteen. Look,

179
00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:37.559
there's a nine o'clock game tomorrow.
Let me let me, let me

180
00:11:37.600 --> 00:11:39.600
bitch a little bit about this.
The nine o'clock game tomorrow. Then we

181
00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:46.480
got a twelve thirty football game,
so tailgam starts for us like it's seven,

182
00:11:46.519 --> 00:11:50.720
so you know, I'll get home
at midnight, so like a basketball

183
00:11:50.720 --> 00:11:56.000
game sounds like a personal problem problem. It has been suggested that I just

184
00:11:56.279 --> 00:11:58.720
after the basketball game is go park
my car on the lawn and uh,

185
00:12:00.039 --> 00:12:07.120
we're not going to Charlie tailgate.
Excuse me, get the tailgates started right

186
00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:09.000
there? What do you think I
mean? I think it's I think it's

187
00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:13.080
a good idea. Cooking up some
treatise on eggs right at about midnight.

188
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:16.519
We're in the engine of the we're
going to cook it up. I have

189
00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:22.039
Arizona Duke at a home at home
one time, and now we got the

190
00:12:22.039 --> 00:12:26.360
camping out before games starting up.
It's one of those propane burners. You've

191
00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:28.799
got a couple of burners. We're
going to cook some We're going to cook

192
00:12:28.840 --> 00:12:35.039
somet and eggs on Saturday music and
we're having some you know, mimosas and

193
00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:39.080
uh and uh you know then then
you know some some some of that stuff

194
00:12:39.120 --> 00:12:41.399
like bagels and papa. There's also
the thought that you don't have to go

195
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:46.279
to these games? Said, do
what do you mean I don't have to

196
00:12:46.320 --> 00:12:48.519
go to the I don't have to
go to the basketball game. Well you

197
00:12:48.559 --> 00:12:52.279
can. You have a choice.
We have choices. I don't have choices

198
00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:56.159
on that. The basketball game.
They need me. The game doesn't start

199
00:12:56.159 --> 00:13:01.879
without I'm a part of that.
Actually would start without me, but the

200
00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:07.559
stats would just be those. Here's
one for those For people who've been going

201
00:13:07.559 --> 00:13:11.919
to the games. It was a
pretty much every game up until a few

202
00:13:11.919 --> 00:13:15.399
games ago, that damn scoreboard wasn't
working right. Yeah, we caught it.

203
00:13:15.399 --> 00:13:18.120
It's fixed. What the hell happened? Because we wondered to s it

204
00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:20.519
was a software issue? Yeah,
because last game it definitely didn't. It

205
00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:26.639
was. It was a software She
worked for the women's game on when did

206
00:13:26.639 --> 00:13:28.919
they play Tuesday? Oh, you
haven't even talked about that. How they

207
00:13:28.919 --> 00:13:35.120
look Tuesday? They look better?
You know, they're they're a middle of

208
00:13:35.159 --> 00:13:39.799
the road packed off seven seventh or
eight. Yeah, they're they're a middle

209
00:13:39.799 --> 00:13:43.960
of the road team. There's you
know, nobody, you know, their

210
00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:46.879
best player, you know, well, the two best pas as Mary as

211
00:13:46.879 --> 00:13:50.559
Mary Martinez and Helene Lane play.
I had two points the other night.

212
00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:54.000
She she's a great defensive player,
has a huge impact defensively. She had

213
00:13:54.039 --> 00:13:58.159
nine rebounds, a bunch of steals. But she's got a score. As

214
00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:01.240
Mary Martinez, she still gets in
foul trouble. She's got to watch that

215
00:14:01.279 --> 00:14:03.879
and she's got to score. Who
do we have on the show? The

216
00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:07.840
guard? Who's Kaylen Gilbert. She's
the one who's like scoring and doing all

217
00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:11.000
the stuff. Because she was on
the show right there was a you know,

218
00:14:11.039 --> 00:14:13.240
they were they were in a close
game and then she kind of got

219
00:14:13.279 --> 00:14:18.120
loose and scored a bunch of points, and you know, and they they

220
00:14:18.120 --> 00:14:20.080
beat San Diego. You didn't feel
like they're ever gonna lose that game.

221
00:14:20.120 --> 00:14:24.720
But there the hotel, Yeah,
you can tell they're the middle of the

222
00:14:24.799 --> 00:14:28.240
road team just because they just they
don't have enough, I don't think.

223
00:14:28.519 --> 00:14:30.799

ball on Fox Sports fourteenth. Hey, welcome back to I'm aut hero Fox

303

Sports Fortune Shifty Steve Rivera, He's
Jacos Awesome. Now the phone we have

304
00:20:17.599 --> 00:20:22.079
Bola Yobe Hooper. Corey Williams college
basketball analyst. How many years have you

305
00:20:22.160 --> 00:20:26.640
been doing this though? Oh?
Man, I started right when Sean Miller

306
00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:32.640
got involved, So my first year, so I'm not sure four eleven or

307
00:20:32.640 --> 00:20:34.799
twelve, yeah, fourteen, fifteen
years ago because he was twelve years you.

308
00:20:36.160 --> 00:20:40.799
Yeah, you're like an old grizzled
veteran ste Yeah, like yeah.

309
00:20:40.880 --> 00:20:44.599
I saw Corey the other day and
I looked at his beard after he's getting

310
00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:48.359
a little, yeah, little age
on me. It's wisdom, man,

311
00:20:48.440 --> 00:20:51.720
wisdom. I call it wisdom.
I'm sure it looks better on you than

312
00:20:51.759 --> 00:20:56.920
it doesn't when you're six five.
Yeah, okay, Hey, hey Corey,

313
00:20:56.960 --> 00:21:03.480
when did you start wearing your low
ti and why started? I did

314
00:21:03.480 --> 00:21:07.440
a few years with they sending regular
tighs. I started that probably around twenty

315
00:21:07.480 --> 00:21:12.319
fifteen, twenty sixteen, I think, so, just to change it up

316
00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:15.839
for what it was a gift for
my nephew, and you asked me to

317
00:21:15.839 --> 00:21:18.079
wear and I did, and then
I said, you know what, I'm

318
00:21:18.079 --> 00:21:22.839
gonna stick with it. I had
a good call, and you know,

319
00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:26.200
at a company as big as ESPN, you really got to stand out.

320
00:21:26.400 --> 00:21:30.160
And I figured they were in my
early in my career. We were getting

321
00:21:30.160 --> 00:21:34.000
a late Thursday night and Sunday night
games on ESPN U, and I had

322
00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:37.079
to do something to keep the viewers
interested. So I figured I tried a

323
00:21:37.079 --> 00:21:41.960
both tide. Okay, all right, that's legit, legit. Okay,

324
00:21:41.160 --> 00:21:45.160
let's go to the basketball basketball team. What did you see against Duke?

325
00:21:45.200 --> 00:21:49.119
And then we'll go to the recent
game. Well, what I saw against

326
00:21:49.279 --> 00:21:56.240
Duke was a good level of energy. I think when you go play in

327
00:21:56.279 --> 00:22:00.960
a hostile environment like that, you're
not going to shoot the lights out.

328
00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:06.880
What you want to do is muck
it up and make things difficult for the

329
00:22:06.920 --> 00:22:10.480
home team because they're a team playing
with the confidence in the momentum. So

330
00:22:10.559 --> 00:22:14.640
what I saw of Arizona was great
energy. On the defensive end, they

331
00:22:14.680 --> 00:22:17.799
were very and I hate to use
this word because it's such a cliche,

332
00:22:17.920 --> 00:22:22.720
but they were very scrappy. Yeah, and that's what it takes when you

333
00:22:22.839 --> 00:22:26.680
have an off night. If you've
got that scrappiness, that toughness, you

334
00:22:26.720 --> 00:22:30.920
can get wins on nights where you
don't play well offensively. So to go

335
00:22:30.000 --> 00:22:33.440
down to Duke, play defense and
come out of there with a win,

336
00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:37.440
I think that's a lot that they
can build on. Well, use the

337
00:22:37.440 --> 00:22:41.720
word scrappy. I thought they were
very aggressive, and particularly Keishad Johnson,

338
00:22:41.759 --> 00:22:45.480
he's just been he's just been a
beast in there and just you know,

339
00:22:45.640 --> 00:22:51.680
he's not taking crap from anybody.
No, and you look at his pedigree

340
00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:53.480
where he played. I know the
program over at San Diego State. He

341
00:22:53.519 --> 00:22:57.480
comes from a great program, a
tough nose program. But you know there's

342
00:22:57.480 --> 00:23:02.759
something about when you have that Arizona
across your chest, that's a brand like

343
00:23:02.920 --> 00:23:07.519
none other. And then you get
the chance to play in Cameron, which

344
00:23:07.559 --> 00:23:11.319
is one of the methods of college
basketball. I think everything was set up

345
00:23:11.359 --> 00:23:15.519
for our guys to rise to the
occasion, and they did. They played

346
00:23:15.640 --> 00:23:18.839
very well. Well. You mentioned
it because you're part of this back in

347
00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:22.319
your career, because it happened a
few times ninety three, ninety four,

348
00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:25.920
no one thought anything of you.
Guys. You go to Maui, or

349
00:23:26.039 --> 00:23:29.920
go to and do very well,
loosing Kentucky, but play very well in

350
00:23:29.960 --> 00:23:33.000
your senior year. No one thought
much of you guys, even though you

351
00:23:33.000 --> 00:23:37.440
guys were pretty good at ninety five
ninety five and maybe unranked or ranked very

352
00:23:37.519 --> 00:23:42.000
low and go to New York and
crush it and people start paying attention.

353
00:23:44.079 --> 00:23:45.640
Yeah, I mean a lot of
times, that chip on your shoulders a

354
00:23:45.640 --> 00:23:49.359
great motivator. I think every athlete, regardless of the sport, has to

355
00:23:49.400 --> 00:23:56.039
have a chip on their shoulder.
For me, the most important thing didn't

356
00:23:56.079 --> 00:23:59.640
take place during the Duke game.
It was kind of hoswod and if you

357
00:23:59.720 --> 00:24:06.640
act words where he mentioned Princeton by
name, and that really kind of left

358
00:24:06.720 --> 00:24:08.759
out at me because in that moment, you just got through the great win.

359
00:24:10.519 --> 00:24:15.880
He's talking about the miserable exit from
the tournament. That was the last

360
00:24:15.920 --> 00:24:18.960
time that those guys were on a
stage that was big and they didn't get

361
00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:23.000
the job done, And they carried
that all throughout the summer and put it

362
00:24:23.039 --> 00:24:29.960
into this opportunity at Duke. That
to me indicated that this team understands it's

363
00:24:30.039 --> 00:24:33.839
more than just you know, showing
up and playing. They have they have

364
00:24:33.920 --> 00:24:37.400
an axe to grind. They have
a chip on their shoulder. They're working

365
00:24:37.440 --> 00:24:42.079
towards something. They know what these
games mean outside of the moment. So

366
00:24:42.079 --> 00:24:45.440
so looking at what they look like, you know, again a mission mentioned

367
00:24:45.519 --> 00:24:51.359
Keishad Johnson. You know. But
the other thing that you see that's glaring

368
00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:56.200
about what they're doing is those four
guards, the four interchangeable guards that can

369
00:24:56.240 --> 00:25:00.200
come in and do the do the
job that that Tommy needs them to do

370
00:25:00.279 --> 00:25:04.839
out there. Yeah, and you
know, I don't want to say this

371
00:25:04.960 --> 00:25:08.759
and have everybody upset at me right
now, but the offense, in my

372
00:25:08.799 --> 00:25:12.240
opinion, doesn't look good right now. Okay, when I say that the

373
00:25:12.240 --> 00:25:17.319
offense doesn't look good, what I
mean is it's going to take a while.

374
00:25:17.359 --> 00:25:18.839
This is only the third or fourth
game of the season. They've got

375
00:25:18.880 --> 00:25:22.559
a couple of games coming up,
So I don't expect the offense to look

376
00:25:22.599 --> 00:25:25.319
good right now. And I think, you know, behind closed doors,

377
00:25:25.319 --> 00:25:27.960
Tommy might tell you the same thing. These guys have to find a way

378
00:25:30.200 --> 00:25:33.240
to play and develop a rhythm,
and then the offense is going to get

379
00:25:33.279 --> 00:25:38.000
better. Because the one thing you
can't say is these are our consistent looks,

380
00:25:38.240 --> 00:25:42.240
these are the plays we run to
get these shots and this is your

381
00:25:42.319 --> 00:25:45.480
role that you can't go you know, guys one through seven and tell them

382
00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:48.599
exactly what their role is. Yet
so much of that is still up in

383
00:25:48.640 --> 00:25:53.680
the air, which is what made
the win so impressive, because they don't

384
00:25:53.720 --> 00:25:57.680
really have an offensive leader. Yet, they don't have a rhythm. There

385
00:25:57.680 --> 00:26:02.400
were there are no easy I mean
a couple of years ago and even last

386
00:26:02.440 --> 00:26:07.079
year you could set your watch to
the high low with bollow was that was

387
00:26:07.160 --> 00:26:12.359
the route part of their offense.
They got that look a few times against

388
00:26:12.440 --> 00:26:15.519
Duke, but that was it.
I think they're going to settle in offensively

389
00:26:15.640 --> 00:26:19.400
and when they do, they definitely
will be one of the top five teams

390
00:26:19.400 --> 00:26:22.759
in the country because it just low
as with weapons and luckily they had enough

391
00:26:22.759 --> 00:26:26.960
talent to get in dont So we
had Reggie on here maybe two three weeks

392
00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:30.319
ago, and I just brought up
this observation and maybe you can agree or

393
00:26:30.359 --> 00:26:33.720
disagree, but back when you were
playing as well, you had Damon,

394
00:26:33.799 --> 00:26:38.240
Kalid and Reggie the three guard offense
and and and you know they interchanged the

395
00:26:38.359 --> 00:26:41.799
interchange. Joe McLain was with you
are kind of on the wing and JB

396
00:26:42.160 --> 00:26:48.519
and Rayos but these three, Jay
says four for this team. But do

397
00:26:48.599 --> 00:26:52.279
you see some similarities where there's a
lot of moving parts in the back court.

398
00:26:53.200 --> 00:26:57.920
Not really, because the way we
played with that three guard offense,

399
00:26:59.759 --> 00:27:03.759
we had the ball screen for Damon
and we knew exactly what was going to

400
00:27:03.799 --> 00:27:06.119
happen out of that. If you
took away the ball screen, then it

401
00:27:06.200 --> 00:27:07.720
went to Rayos. If you took
away Rayos, then it went to me,

402
00:27:08.000 --> 00:27:12.279
Joe McClain or Joe Blair. Like
everything was so structured because we knew

403
00:27:12.279 --> 00:27:17.079
who our one two punch was,
and we knew that we had NBA level

404
00:27:17.119 --> 00:27:19.880
guards that even the best coach in
the country, Okay, you're gonna make

405
00:27:19.960 --> 00:27:23.039
Kalid Reeves go baseline. Fine,
who's gonna go baseline and throw a lot

406
00:27:23.160 --> 00:27:27.480
of Joseph Blair Like we set off
of those guys, So that dynamic was

407
00:27:27.519 --> 00:27:33.799
different. Our team leaders were so
well defined when we stepped on campus in

408
00:27:33.880 --> 00:27:37.519
August, we knew it was Damon
and Khalid's team. In that regard,

409
00:27:37.720 --> 00:27:42.599
it's different. But you talk about
interchangeable, sometimes less is more. I'm

410
00:27:42.599 --> 00:27:47.359
a big fan of that when it
comes to college basketball coaches. To tell

411
00:27:47.440 --> 00:27:51.720
me we don't have a it's offense
by committee. You're not gonna last long

412
00:27:51.759 --> 00:27:53.480
in college basketball. Oh, we
don't have a leader. We don't have

413
00:27:53.519 --> 00:27:56.200
a go to guy. Anybody can
be that guy or maybe give a night

414
00:27:56.599 --> 00:28:00.119
coaches give me that SoundBite, I
know they're in trouble. You have to

415
00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:04.400
have an offensive pecking order, and
either the coach can decide it or the

416
00:28:04.400 --> 00:28:08.759
players can send it for themselves.
But something has to really fall in the

417
00:28:08.839 --> 00:28:14.039
place before the Pack twelve starts.
Do you think Colan Boswell can or is

418
00:28:14.079 --> 00:28:18.559
that guy or kill There's no question
in my mind. Colin Boswell needs to

419
00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:21.559
be on the court all forty minutes
of the game to be I mean,

420
00:28:21.680 --> 00:28:25.880
he is a real point guard,
and the beauty of it is he'll play

421
00:28:25.920 --> 00:28:27.880
whatever game comes to him. If
the jump shots come to him, he'll

422
00:28:27.880 --> 00:28:32.319
take those. If the penetrations come
to him, he'll take those. If

423
00:28:32.319 --> 00:28:36.279
the assist come to him, he'll
throw the assist. You have to have

424
00:28:36.440 --> 00:28:41.000
someone out there running the show,
and Colin Boswell approved last year. He

425
00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:45.640
was that guy, and he's surrounded
by talented people. He's a threat and

426
00:28:45.799 --> 00:28:49.599
him being out there helps other people
get their game off. But the other

427
00:28:49.640 --> 00:28:52.400
thing is I watch how he brings
the ball up the floor with his head

428
00:28:52.480 --> 00:28:56.119
up. He's looking at the big
man, he's looking at the wing running,

429
00:28:56.119 --> 00:29:00.319
the pope running the lane. He's
decided where the ball goes, not

430
00:29:00.599 --> 00:29:03.960
chaos when he's out there, and
I think they have to stick with that

431
00:29:04.039 --> 00:29:07.599
formula. I'm a huge fan of
his. I hope. I'm pretty sure

432
00:29:07.599 --> 00:29:11.759
that's obvious, but yeah, I
think it's great to see a solid point

433
00:29:11.759 --> 00:29:14.119
guard out there. And I know
that takes a lot of pressure off everybody

434
00:29:14.119 --> 00:29:17.519
else. And he's only eighteen,
I say that joke. Yeah, So

435
00:29:18.000 --> 00:29:22.440
what about Caleb Love? Then?
You know that's the question mark because he's

436
00:29:22.480 --> 00:29:26.839
such a big time player and he
can explode for twenty five on any given

437
00:29:26.960 --> 00:29:30.319
night. He doesn't have to have
the ball in his hand, but my

438
00:29:30.519 --> 00:29:33.240
god, is he good when he
does have the ball in his hands.

439
00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:37.839
I think what's gonna happen with Caleb
Love is he'll try to fit in the

440
00:29:37.839 --> 00:29:41.559
thing. He's going to have a
couple of Gilbert Arenas knights. You can

441
00:29:41.599 --> 00:29:44.319
book it, write it down right
now. Caleb Love will have a couple

442
00:29:44.359 --> 00:29:47.599
thirty point nights at Arizona, and
the fans are going to fall in love

443
00:29:47.599 --> 00:29:49.200
with them because they haven't seen that
part of his game. They don't remember

444
00:29:49.200 --> 00:29:53.359
how he played at North Carolina.
I do, and sometimes it's hit or

445
00:29:53.400 --> 00:29:57.079
miss. But that kid can score, he can play, he's aggressive.

446
00:29:57.680 --> 00:30:03.200
It's going to be interesting to see
if he can establish a rhythm not having

447
00:30:03.240 --> 00:30:07.200
the ball in his hand as much
as he's used to. You know,

448
00:30:07.359 --> 00:30:11.799
you mentioned, you know how how
frequent the last year they used that high

449
00:30:11.799 --> 00:30:18.559
low with with Ballow and Azulus.
But key Shot is a way different player

450
00:30:18.599 --> 00:30:22.240
than Azulus, and it's kind of
showing that, you know, Babo's not

451
00:30:22.279 --> 00:30:25.960
getting the opportunities that he was getting, you know, when it was Azulus.

452
00:30:26.359 --> 00:30:30.359
It'd be interesting to see what what
how he operates in this offense because

453
00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:33.960
it seems to me already he's got
a different role than he had last year.

454
00:30:34.799 --> 00:30:40.400
Well, that can be a little
deceptive because what's actually happened is and

455
00:30:40.519 --> 00:30:42.240
key Shots can't kill me when he
sees me. But Keyshot doesn't have much

456
00:30:42.240 --> 00:30:48.559
of an outside shot, where as
did so Azulus at the high post had

457
00:30:48.640 --> 00:30:51.880
to be respected, which opened up
the high low hell. Azulas from the

458
00:30:51.960 --> 00:30:56.920
three point line had to be respected, so that spaceing happened for Ballow that

459
00:30:56.160 --> 00:31:00.799
doesn't happen right now with Jishot at
the four. But here's the thing,

460
00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:04.240
Arizona, just like last year,
is going to pound you and pound you

461
00:31:04.359 --> 00:31:08.599
inside because they've got the big bodies. Key Shot is so active and he's

462
00:31:08.599 --> 00:31:12.160
so physical. Keep in mind,
they don't run any place for him.

463
00:31:12.759 --> 00:31:15.240
So when you look up and see
that he has twelve and ten, he

464
00:31:15.319 --> 00:31:18.640
did that on his own. They're
not running ice though place for Keyshot Johnson.

465
00:31:18.839 --> 00:31:22.920
He's getting rebounds, he's getting put
backs, he's running the court and

466
00:31:22.960 --> 00:31:29.759
getting breakaway dunks. Like his athleticism, his activity, Bollow will begin to

467
00:31:29.839 --> 00:31:34.039
benefit from it. It's a different
type of four to play alongside because I've

468
00:31:34.039 --> 00:31:37.160
played along I've been a four most
of my career, so I know what

469
00:31:37.240 --> 00:31:40.359
my job is to the wings,
and I know what my job is to

470
00:31:40.440 --> 00:31:42.519
the big man. They're going to
develop a symmetry. But you're right,

471
00:31:42.599 --> 00:31:47.759
the high low may not happen as
much, but I think Bolo eventually is

472
00:31:47.799 --> 00:31:51.240
going to find himself getting a ton
of offensive rebounds. He's going to get

473
00:31:51.279 --> 00:31:53.480
a ton of one on ones in
the block because key Shot will be diving

474
00:31:53.559 --> 00:31:56.880
for the dunks and the passes.
If you won't be able to double bottle.

475
00:31:57.799 --> 00:32:01.519
So we talk about this all the
time. If they had Kisha Johnson

476
00:32:01.640 --> 00:32:06.480
last year the year before brought some
kind of toughness, some uniqueness near the

477
00:32:06.519 --> 00:32:09.039
basket, they would have been very
good. Who does he remind you of?

478
00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:15.359
I have my I have my idea. You know, Keishat reminds me

479
00:32:15.519 --> 00:32:19.960
of Michael Wright. He reminds me
of a guy named Jesse Perry who played

480
00:32:20.759 --> 00:32:24.920
He reminds me of a Wayne Romack
to go way back like that, that

481
00:32:25.119 --> 00:32:30.039
scrappy, powerful four. You know, we've had a bunch of them in

482
00:32:30.119 --> 00:32:35.480
Arizona over the years. You know, he's not He's a bruiser and very

483
00:32:35.559 --> 00:32:39.599
physical like Ben Davis who I've played
with. I think A. J.

484
00:32:39.799 --> 00:32:44.079
Bramlett to a degree was a physical
four, but he was an athletic.

485
00:32:45.319 --> 00:32:47.559
Yeah, he's just another long line
of great fours at Arizona. But you're

486
00:32:47.640 --> 00:32:53.279
right, that toughness, that grit
when things go bad, he's the guy

487
00:32:53.319 --> 00:32:58.000
that's gonn huddle them up, pound
his chests and get those guys back out

488
00:32:58.039 --> 00:33:00.759
there great and fired up. Well, he to me, he's the combination

489
00:33:00.839 --> 00:33:05.279
of Bennet Davison and Jan Edgerson.
Yeah, and God forbid, I can't

490
00:33:05.279 --> 00:33:08.039
believe I missed Gene. Gene was
the ultimate warrior for Arizona now that I

491
00:33:08.119 --> 00:33:12.599
think about it, I mean,
Jean's the prototype for the physical power forward

492
00:33:12.640 --> 00:33:16.720
at Arizona. I think as finesse
as the ninety seventeen was if they didn't

493
00:33:16.759 --> 00:33:20.599
have Gene in their throwing bowls,
they wouldn't have got that far right,

494
00:33:20.640 --> 00:33:22.200
No, totally agree. Well,
we'll put your national hat on for a

495
00:33:22.240 --> 00:33:25.400
little bit. What have you seen
nationally? You know, you had those

496
00:33:25.440 --> 00:33:29.480
games a couple of nights ago.
You know, Duke and Michigan State,

497
00:33:29.599 --> 00:33:34.200
Kentucky and Kansas. You know,
Arizona is now in that picture because of

498
00:33:34.279 --> 00:33:37.319
the win over Duke. You know
who is it? Is this going to

499
00:33:37.359 --> 00:33:40.920
be a wide open year for everybody? Or is it the usual suspects?

500
00:33:43.160 --> 00:33:47.599
It's gonna be it's gonna look like
the usual suspects because the blue Bloods dominate

501
00:33:47.720 --> 00:33:51.920
TV. They're the ones that always
get the national games on Fox, from

502
00:33:52.160 --> 00:33:54.519
ESPN and so on, So everybody's
gonna get a solid dose of the blue

503
00:33:54.559 --> 00:33:59.359
blood and all this, and then
the tournament's going to happen and some known

504
00:33:59.440 --> 00:34:00.839
name mid made your team's gonna end
up in the Final four, because that's

505
00:34:00.960 --> 00:34:07.279
just what happens when I watch basketball
right now, the November December time,

506
00:34:07.359 --> 00:34:10.559
I'm watching, Who are you playing
and how are you playing. If you're

507
00:34:10.599 --> 00:34:15.800
playing small schools and blowing them out, that's great. If you're playing small

508
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:19.800
schools and you're struggling, then I
raise an eyebrow. If your offense isn't

509
00:34:19.840 --> 00:34:23.280
clicking because you're just doing dribble handoff
and I just see so much dribble handoff

510
00:34:23.320 --> 00:34:28.840
that drives me crazy. That's not
going to get you through a twenty five

511
00:34:28.920 --> 00:34:31.599
game regular season. You've got to
have more than a dribble handoff motion offense.

512
00:34:31.639 --> 00:34:37.480
You got to have some big some
full balance, some action where you

513
00:34:37.559 --> 00:34:39.480
guys are going to do something consistently
night in and night out. And I

514
00:34:39.679 --> 00:34:45.360
haven't seen anybody who looks like they're
in mid season formed. I thought Kansas

515
00:34:45.480 --> 00:34:50.400
looked good because they had the inside
outside balance. I love their perimeter players.

516
00:34:51.519 --> 00:34:53.840
Honestly, I just sit on the
sideline and eat my popcorn until January

517
00:34:53.960 --> 00:34:58.039
first. January first is when I
really locked in and started looking at who

518
00:34:59.039 --> 00:35:02.360
the top fifteen sixteen teams are in
the country right Okay, well, Corey,

519
00:35:02.519 --> 00:35:06.360
we really appreciate it. We'll get
back to you when you start eating

00:35:21.920 --> 00:35:23.239

use it, right, Carty,

00:35:39.960 --> 00:35:44.360
years. Now take a look back
at the Ludolsen era in my new book,

528
00:35:44.559 --> 00:35:45.840
Lessons from Lut. It was a
labor of love through the eyes of

529
00:35:45.880 --> 00:35:50.719
twenty five former players, coaches,
and friends to give insight to the coach

530
00:35:50.800 --> 00:35:53.239
and the man who led them,
competed against them, and inspired them twenty

531
00:35:53.280 --> 00:35:58.840
five chapters for his twenty five years
as Arizona's beloved coach. Lessons from Lut

532
00:35:58.920 --> 00:36:01.880
is an insight to how he built
the program into a national powerhouse. Want

Good stuff from Corey Williams. Interesting that

582
00:39:43.599 --> 00:39:45.679
he thinks that the offense isn't looking
good yet. Yeah. Yeah, it

583
00:39:45.800 --> 00:39:50.480
makes sense though, because it was
a struggle against dude three games in.

584
00:39:50.800 --> 00:39:52.960
Yeah, and some people will say
it was a struggle last game. Yeah,

585
00:39:53.280 --> 00:39:55.519
at least for the first half of
that. I don't disagree with him

586
00:39:55.519 --> 00:39:59.360
because it has been a little It
was stilted in the first half for sure.

587
00:39:59.400 --> 00:40:00.320
And again, a bunch you guys, as he said, right,

588
00:40:00.599 --> 00:40:06.000
trying to figure it out. Imagine, imagine when they do click, it's

589
00:40:06.039 --> 00:40:08.400
gonna be in the hundreds a few
more times, because what we know is

590
00:40:08.440 --> 00:40:13.880
that they've got really good players right
right right, and we know that already.

591
00:40:13.920 --> 00:40:15.400
It still new and it's still new. I mean, like I say,

592
00:40:15.440 --> 00:40:19.239
three games in, I still think
that, and I agree with him

593
00:40:19.239 --> 00:40:21.559
with the Caleb Love. I don't
know if he's gonna score thirty, but

594
00:40:21.760 --> 00:40:23.960
you know, you know, he
wants to, He wants to and he's

595
00:40:24.079 --> 00:40:27.800
there's gonna be like he said,
there's gonna be games where he put points

596
00:40:27.840 --> 00:40:30.679
on the board, but you know
he is gonna do that. And if

597
00:40:30.679 --> 00:40:32.079
there's a game where we need him
to, he's definitely one of those guys

598
00:40:32.119 --> 00:40:35.360
that is more than happy to be
like, oh you need me to score

599
00:40:35.400 --> 00:40:37.559
tonight, All right, let's go. Let's go score twenty points tonight,

600
00:40:37.760 --> 00:40:40.239
five points tonight. Yeah. No, I'm looking forward to seeing him.

601
00:40:40.239 --> 00:40:45.719
I look at those guys, Steve
and and and you know, we keep

602
00:40:45.800 --> 00:40:50.599
mentioning the four guards. I just
don't recall Arizona having four guards that look

603
00:40:50.719 --> 00:40:53.119
like that. No, not not
with four guards, No, because there

604
00:40:53.239 --> 00:40:57.079
was only had like the McConnell's time. It was McConnell, right, and

605
00:40:57.360 --> 00:41:01.119
and Johnson did other things. And
think of think of Khalid and and and

606
00:41:01.719 --> 00:41:06.840
Damon and and Reggie. You know, Damon was a little guy, right,

607
00:41:07.280 --> 00:41:09.920
you know, Khalid was the bigger, strong guy, but sort of

608
00:41:10.000 --> 00:41:15.039
a gliding kind of guy. You
know, Reggie was he was sort of

609
00:41:15.079 --> 00:41:21.639
in between those two guys. These
guys are four physical tall guys, right,

610
00:41:21.719 --> 00:41:25.920
they're six three, you know,
with these broad shoulders and looks like

611
00:41:27.119 --> 00:41:30.119
they look like guys that you know, if you don't have a guy like

612
00:41:30.239 --> 00:41:32.199
that covering them, you're gonna be
a little bit of trouble, sure,

613
00:41:32.519 --> 00:41:36.239
right, I mean, think of
how many times we thought Kirk Crisa was

614
00:41:36.280 --> 00:41:39.320
overmatched last year trying to cover a
guy who was who was like one of

615
00:41:39.400 --> 00:41:43.920
these four guys. As much as
as much as we liked that team last

616
00:41:44.000 --> 00:41:45.920
year, and I think we did, we can now see that it was

617
00:41:46.000 --> 00:41:51.199
flawed. Yeah, and not so
much in the Princeton game, but just

618
00:41:51.320 --> 00:41:53.719
but when they lost to Washington State, you're thinking, what were lost?

619
00:41:54.159 --> 00:41:57.880
They lost strange games? Well,
there were times throughout the year that you

620
00:41:57.920 --> 00:42:00.280
thought they were overmatched at some of
those positions. Yeah, right, you

621
00:42:00.320 --> 00:42:04.039
thought, wait a minute, you
know they're they're you know, this is

622
00:42:04.280 --> 00:42:07.840
the other team's got a better guy
at that position, you know. And

623
00:42:07.320 --> 00:42:09.599
I think there's gonna be a lot
less of that look. And I'm not

624
00:42:09.639 --> 00:42:14.519
saying Arizona's gonna every position have the
best guy on the court, but they

625
00:42:14.599 --> 00:42:16.960
got a bunch of guys and and
I think that's the thing that we're already

626
00:42:17.000 --> 00:42:21.599
seeing is going to be sort of
a characteristic of this team that whoever they

627
00:42:21.639 --> 00:42:25.119
put on the floor is going to
be gonna be able to handle what's going

628
00:42:25.159 --> 00:42:29.400
on on the floor. Yeah,
And I think what you're saying is you

629
00:42:29.440 --> 00:42:32.599
can just they have a bunch of
players that can play different roles on a

630
00:42:32.679 --> 00:42:37.239
different night, and you can just
throw those guys at the matchup that's needed

631
00:42:37.280 --> 00:42:43.920
for that specific night. Yeah.
So, I you know, I each

632
00:42:44.000 --> 00:42:46.239
game, I'm kind of looking forward
to see how they look in each game.

633
00:42:46.360 --> 00:42:50.719
You know, you got you got
Belmont tonight, You've got Who's Who's

634
00:42:50.760 --> 00:42:54.679
on Who's on Sundays Lington? Oh, they play Sunday too? Yeah,

635
00:42:55.960 --> 00:43:04.239
No, I'm too busy. Really, Yeah, I assume you're not going

636
00:43:04.280 --> 00:43:06.599
to the game on Saturday, right, No, I'm not going on Friday

637
00:43:06.679 --> 00:43:08.519
or Saturday. And I've gotta go
whole time. Is it Sundays like four

638
00:43:09.199 --> 00:43:13.400
it's four pm on Sunday And then
they go to Michigan State Thursday, and

639
00:43:13.440 --> 00:43:15.119
then I'm busy. So, you
know, I want to see what they

640
00:43:15.199 --> 00:43:20.480
do these next two games, to
see how they're progressing. So that because

641
00:43:20.920 --> 00:43:22.679
look, Michigan State's got two losses, but they're still Michigan State. They're

642
00:43:22.719 --> 00:43:24.840
still probably pretty good. Yeah,
you know, they're gonna be tough,

643
00:43:25.079 --> 00:43:28.719
and they're backs against the wall now, so like this is like they don't

644
00:43:28.760 --> 00:43:32.039
want to come out of Thanksgiving with
the third loss. They played Butler tonight

645
00:43:32.159 --> 00:43:38.079
or tomorrow. Butler's pretty good with
that MANA. Yeah, yeah, tough.

646
00:43:38.280 --> 00:43:40.159
No, But you know, the
best thing to happen in Arizona is

647
00:43:42.039 --> 00:43:44.320
do you know how good you're going
to be or you can be how good

648
00:43:44.360 --> 00:43:46.000
you can't be? Right? This
is why you played those no member games.

649
00:43:46.079 --> 00:43:47.880
Yeah, And I think it goes
to what you were talking about with

650
00:43:49.000 --> 00:43:51.559
how you look at last year's team
and it's not just the Princeton loss,

651
00:43:51.599 --> 00:43:53.679
but it's like there were flaws there. I think part of the issue last

652
00:43:53.760 --> 00:43:57.840
year is we didn't get a chance
to see how low or how high that

653
00:43:57.920 --> 00:44:00.079
ceiling could have been, right,
And I think this year it's a benefit

654
00:44:00.199 --> 00:44:02.639
so early to be able to see
like, oh this is, oh where

655
00:44:02.719 --> 00:44:06.679
this is where our ceiling is at
and we know where it's at a good

656
00:44:06.679 --> 00:44:07.639
point. And you know, the
funny thing about is you know when things

657
00:44:07.639 --> 00:44:10.599
are going really well, you don't
pay attention to the blemishes, right,

658
00:44:10.679 --> 00:44:14.960
You just don't because you don't go
away. Yeah, Well, they're enough

659
00:44:15.000 --> 00:44:16.960
to overcome that whatever, right,
you start pretending, no, we're pretty

660
00:44:16.960 --> 00:44:20.440
good. What happened over there,
we don't talk about it, we don't

661
00:44:20.480 --> 00:44:22.159
talk about it, And then and
then Princeton shows up, and then you

662
00:44:22.239 --> 00:44:27.119
look and say this, this was
the problem all year or in the losses.

663
00:44:27.280 --> 00:44:30.239
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. The Princeton loss was a culmination

664
00:44:30.400 --> 00:44:36.039
of all those there where you were
the head shaking loss that they yeah,

665
00:44:36.199 --> 00:44:38.280
because they had leads and they had
a bleed against Princeton and then they couldn't

666
00:44:38.280 --> 00:44:42.400
score and they couldn't get a rebound. I guess who would have done that,

667
00:44:43.599 --> 00:44:50.280
Johnson exactly. And because because because
uh Azulas couldn't Yeah, I was

668
00:44:50.360 --> 00:44:52.960
I was gonna say that they were
lacking a steady hand. But in these

669
00:44:52.000 --> 00:44:55.159
moments like when things are going left
and you just need a guy like a

670
00:44:55.239 --> 00:44:58.920
Boswell to be all right, we're
gonna cal m down're gonna get a and

671
00:44:59.000 --> 00:45:01.199
he was. Was he even game, but most of the game he might

672
00:45:01.239 --> 00:45:04.239
have been. It was still that
time where we're like, Okay, he

673
00:45:04.280 --> 00:45:08.039
needs to play a little bit more, but he's but he wasn't well at

674
00:45:08.079 --> 00:45:13.079
that time. So we'll see.
There's a lot to like with this team.

675
00:45:13.119 --> 00:45:15.679
There's a lot to learn still with
this team. Uh, the point

676
00:45:15.719 --> 00:45:20.519
of the of Corey for the offense
was it was enlightening I did. Yeah,

677
00:45:20.639 --> 00:45:22.440
you know, and he knows a
little more basketball than you. Yeah.

678
00:45:22.639 --> 00:45:28.519
And the defense, we'll see.
I think the defense is is gonna

679
00:45:28.519 --> 00:45:31.599
be pretty good. And because these
are guys who you know, run up

680
00:45:31.639 --> 00:45:34.760
and down and there, you know, like I was, I think I

681
00:45:34.840 --> 00:45:38.320
mentioned the dad was watching kJ Lewis. You know he's in there. He's

682
00:45:38.360 --> 00:45:42.800
in there at the end of the
game with with the subs, and he

683
00:45:43.039 --> 00:45:49.760
was still he was still you know, physical and aggressive and playing really hard

684
00:45:49.920 --> 00:45:52.400
defense. You know, because these
guys all have they want to play more.

685
00:45:52.559 --> 00:45:55.519
And then you know clearly he wants
to play. He's the fourth guard,

686
00:45:55.639 --> 00:45:59.679
right and so you know his his
his minutes are going to be less

687
00:45:59.719 --> 00:46:00.920
than the this but if he wants
to play, he's got to do that.

688
00:46:01.360 --> 00:46:04.480
And he was doing it and he's
and he's good. So how are

689
00:46:04.519 --> 00:46:07.800
you going to keep him off the
floor? Well, he did go small

690
00:46:08.199 --> 00:46:12.760
small. Yeah, they'll go with
four guys and either Balow or or or

691
00:46:13.000 --> 00:46:15.880
Creis or Crevious or or or just
you know, there's gonna be teams that

692
00:46:15.960 --> 00:46:20.519
just simply can't handle the size of
Arizona, so they will have more opportunity

693
00:46:20.559 --> 00:46:22.880
to get him in the game in
those situations. I feel like, right,

694
00:46:22.000 --> 00:46:25.320
and he's so he's a good pass
that he can score. He so

695
00:46:25.480 --> 00:46:29.000
hard I was, and Jay was
talking about him playing on defense. I

696
00:46:29.079 --> 00:46:31.000
thought he played really hard with the
subs on offense, going in trying to

697
00:46:31.039 --> 00:46:35.119
crash the board, get steals on
the inbound or good steals on the defensive

698
00:46:35.159 --> 00:46:37.000
rebound. That's what I was.
And he's probably one of the more athletic

699
00:46:37.079 --> 00:46:43.440
guys on the team outside of Johnson
and maybe Love. I mean it was

700
00:46:43.440 --> 00:46:47.000
a Caleb Love who had the dunk
jump from the free throw kind of dunk

701
00:46:47.159 --> 00:46:50.840
that he missed. No, he
made he made one. There was one

702
00:46:50.880 --> 00:46:53.360
that was missed. But yeah,
and then kJ went after agressively too.

703
00:46:53.639 --> 00:46:55.679
I mean, what's not to like? You know, it is not to

704
00:46:55.880 --> 00:47:00.239
like? What is not to like? I like the fact that the game

705
00:47:00.320 --> 00:47:02.719
on Thanksgiving the two o'clock what was
it? So when's the first game?

706
00:47:02.800 --> 00:47:07.960
Is eleven football Detroit and whatever?
Right, they know they play like nine

707
00:47:08.079 --> 00:47:10.920
thirty in the morning or ten o'clock, ten o'clock or ten thirty in the

708
00:47:10.960 --> 00:47:14.960
morning. Okay, and then what's
the second game? Dallas Cowboys? And

709
00:47:15.000 --> 00:47:17.679
who? Yes, we got Packers
Lions, uh twenty third at ten thirty

710
00:47:17.719 --> 00:47:23.719
am Commander's Cowboys, two thirty pm
Commanders, Oh my god, Niners Seahawks

711
00:47:23.760 --> 00:47:30.400
six nine. Seahawk should be fine. So but two o'clock that's is Yeah,

712
00:47:30.159 --> 00:47:32.599
we'll watch the basketball game, but
it'll lead right into dinner. You

713
00:47:32.639 --> 00:47:38.239
mean you don't want to watch the
NFL's leading passer, Sam Howell. He's

714
00:47:38.280 --> 00:47:42.360
leading the league in passing yards right
now. He is not look it up.

715
00:47:42.519 --> 00:47:46.079
I believe you. It's like him. C J stroud and crazy,

716
00:47:46.599 --> 00:47:51.800
crazy to think pissed me off.
Last. We love you, J.

717
00:47:52.159 --> 00:47:53.360
He has no teams left. I
love you. CJ. Were good.

718
00:47:54.119 --> 00:47:57.440
I really I was looking at the
games today, so you have no idea.

719
00:47:58.159 --> 00:48:01.360
I'm mad at everybody. We just
mentioned the Thursday night game tonight and

720
00:48:02.239 --> 00:48:07.239
lost his lid. I'm mad at
everyone. I think I got, I

721
00:48:07.280 --> 00:48:14.119
got. I've got a good sense
of my my college games. I went

722
00:48:14.159 --> 00:48:15.159
through. I said, that looks
easy, that looks easy. That looks

723
00:48:16.199 --> 00:48:19.079
What do you say you went to
Vegas? What do you say? What

724
00:48:19.159 --> 00:48:21.800
do you tell me you came it? You make your picks and then you

725
00:48:21.840 --> 00:48:24.559
can go home and you go to
Vegas. And he says, I mightn't

726
00:48:24.559 --> 00:48:29.519
take these right because I didn't kill
it in Vegas. But I didn't.

727
00:48:29.920 --> 00:48:35.079
You know, I I broke almost
even in Vegas over the weekend, and

728
00:48:35.199 --> 00:48:38.039
yet I yet I was over again
in uh in the pool. People are

729
00:48:38.079 --> 00:48:43.440
asking me if I'm trying to lose. That's always a good sign. It's

730
00:48:43.440 --> 00:48:45.920
always you were really bad. Are
you trying to be bad? No,

731
00:48:46.199 --> 00:48:52.000
No, I'm coming by it naturally. It's just happening, and so it

732
00:48:52.199 --> 00:48:53.880
is. You know, it means
you're achieving a rare feet. I am

733
00:48:54.320 --> 00:48:59.159
very I'm okay with it. It's
the worst. He's already won my money.

734
00:49:00.800 --> 00:49:02.400
Yeah, Steve's spending it. But
I'm winning all the other bets.

735
00:49:02.639 --> 00:49:06.440
Just no, I'm winning all the
other bets. You know, he's already

736
00:49:06.480 --> 00:49:09.199
out on the PAC twelve championship.
No, not really. If Washington wins,

737
00:49:09.239 --> 00:49:12.679
that I win. You know,
I'm saying you're out because us.

738
00:49:13.000 --> 00:49:17.199
Yeah, you don't. You can't
win it. You can only not lose

739
00:49:17.280 --> 00:49:22.760
it. I'm out of the running. Yeah, but I think my you

740
00:49:22.840 --> 00:49:25.960
lost. You lost the over under
on Arizona when oh yeah, yeah,

741
00:49:27.000 --> 00:49:29.400
yeah, you lost that. Yeah, because it's so he took the under

742
00:49:29.639 --> 00:49:34.679
Yeah, so you lost that.
You lost that usc bet that we had

743
00:49:34.800 --> 00:49:37.599
even when I took fourteen seven points
less than what this point spread was,

744
00:49:38.079 --> 00:49:42.239
and I beat you on that,
You'll be like eight lunches. No,

745
00:49:42.440 --> 00:49:45.199
but then you owe me a lot
of cash on these some cash on the

746
00:49:45.280 --> 00:49:50.760
other stuff, like five bucks a
week as like the payment plan. Yeah,

747
00:49:50.880 --> 00:49:52.280
well it's a week and we're at
the end. We're just gonna go

748
00:49:52.360 --> 00:49:57.639
no, blood, No, I'm
taking the cash to take you the left

749
00:49:58.400 --> 00:50:01.639
you on me three lunches then unless
they don't happen, No, two lunches

750
00:50:01.800 --> 00:50:06.559
and then maybe a third. I
have a shot at a third. You

751
00:50:07.159 --> 00:50:10.400
I'm gonna make you heavier and more
cholesterol. Fool. Yeah, I know

752
00:50:10.599 --> 00:50:17.079
the doctor will hate me. Likewise, my doctor hates me, so he's

753
00:50:17.159 --> 00:50:21.079
just he goes, dude, you
gotta do way better than this. I'm

754
00:50:21.119 --> 00:50:23.079
working on it. I'm working on
it, all right. Okay, So

755
00:50:23.599 --> 00:50:29.840
tomorrow we're gonna have Eric Walden,
who's the beat rider covering Utah for the

756
00:50:30.000 --> 00:50:34.920
Salt Lake Tribune. We'll get his
thoughts on on Utah. And you know

757
00:50:35.000 --> 00:50:37.239
the conversation we have with Mark carln
you're talking about Cayle Whittingham and yeah,

758
00:50:38.199 --> 00:50:44.519
yeah, I'm fascinated by Carl Whittingh. My brother hates it. Why because

759
00:50:44.559 --> 00:50:47.079
he's because he looks like such a
badass. I guess because he's because he's

760
00:50:47.079 --> 00:50:50.679
beating the hell out of Arizona and
he's done well and he's not he's not

761
00:50:50.760 --> 00:50:53.440
a mover, he's not. He's
happy there twenty year twenty. He's like

762
00:50:53.519 --> 00:50:57.599
the Mark Few of the PEC twelve. Yeah, but you know, just

763
00:50:57.760 --> 00:51:00.159
because he wins. Yeah, because
he wins and he beats. Because he

764
00:51:00.199 --> 00:51:06.440
wins and he beats. Are people
hope grudges better? Dude, Manta,

765
00:51:06.440 --> 00:51:08.199
Remember my brothers had three wives,
so he's got Oh yeah, well that

766
00:51:08.360 --> 00:51:15.639
tells you that decision Baker and just
the grudge is the grudge guy, kind

767
00:51:15.679 --> 00:51:20.840
of a grudge guy. And then
I'm assuming Jake Fisher. Yeah, possibly

768
00:51:20.840 --> 00:51:22.440
tomorrow, join us tomorrow. You
know, we haven't talked to him in

769
00:51:22.440 --> 00:51:25.320
a couple of weeks since we didn't
have a show least, So we'll get

770
00:51:27.119 --> 00:51:29.960
there. And to tell you he's
gonna gloat, and to tell you that

771
00:51:30.000 --> 00:51:31.679
he has reason to glow because he's
been the one that's been the most accurate

772
00:51:31.719 --> 00:51:35.320
of all of us. He's gonna
gloat, he said, he said eight

773
00:51:35.440 --> 00:51:37.559
wins. Yeah, he was counting
the Bowl game as a win. So

774
00:51:37.679 --> 00:51:44.039
he's they're already you know, I
mean, they're already there. But Steve

775
00:51:44.079 --> 00:51:46.159
there, you know again, this
is the game that decides that they can

776
00:51:46.199 --> 00:51:52.960
get you wells next week. No
matter what happens this weekend, we're gonna

777
00:51:52.960 --> 00:51:55.360
talk about them. Just kept blowing
it. And you've seen more of those

778
00:51:55.440 --> 00:52:01.599
games than any That's why I hate
the I eight because you hate it every

779
00:52:01.639 --> 00:52:06.159
time the underdog shows up and does
something. You can be you can be

780
00:52:06.320 --> 00:52:08.679
really good, and you can piss
it away, you know. I mean

781
00:52:08.719 --> 00:52:12.760
think back to the ninety eight game, right, Arizona was one. They

782
00:52:12.800 --> 00:52:15.639
were ten and one going into that
going into that game, and they nearly

783
00:52:15.719 --> 00:52:16.880
lost that game. I mean,
Ace, you had a ball into the

784
00:52:16.960 --> 00:52:22.360
end zone, you know on the
last charined it. I'm sure Peterson might

785
00:52:22.400 --> 00:52:24.920
do this, but the underdog has
probably fared very, very very well in

786
00:52:25.239 --> 00:52:28.360
this series. Yeah, I mean, I think Mike s do first year

787
00:52:28.440 --> 00:52:31.599
right as you came in ranked Andrew
Walters all that, and Arizona was two

788
00:52:31.679 --> 00:52:34.960
and eight and beat him. Yeah, so yeah, it's the worst.

789
00:52:36.079 --> 00:52:38.119
All right, Hey, Kevin,
nice time today, Thank you. Thank

790
00:52:38.159 --> 00:52:43.599
