I'm surprised. I'm surprised. 28 00:01:16.519 --> 00:01:18.879 I think I sure said that they're a text text 29 00:01:18.959 --> 00:01:21.439 like a four point favorite, which is a little shocking 30 00:01:21.480 --> 00:01:22.760 to me. I don't know if that's true or not. 31 00:01:22.840 --> 00:01:26.879 You might want to yeah it's four points okay maybe wow. 32 00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:29.560 So you know, if I were betting man, wink wink, 33 00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:30.879 I think I would take the points. 34 00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:32.480 You absolutely should. 35 00:01:32.640 --> 00:01:35.920 I mean it's still we talk about this every time. 36 00:01:35.920 --> 00:01:37.280 It's a nice round, but they still make you a 37 00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:39.879 little nervous, no question. In the mellow game, you just 38 00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:42.959 your stomach starts to sink and you're like, oh no, 39 00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:45.239 and you know they might pull it out, but you know, 40 00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:48.159 get on a run in the tournament, you might miss. 41 00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:52.480 It, right. Yeah, And they have yet to make you 42 00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:54.239 feel confident or comfortable. 43 00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:56.760 They really don't. You know, it's exciting. I mean, it's 44 00:01:56.760 --> 00:01:58.280 it's a seven game, is it seven or eight? 45 00:01:58.719 --> 00:01:58.840 Is it? 46 00:01:58.879 --> 00:02:00.560 I think it's a seven game win Street. 47 00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:04.840 Yeah. Yeah, So we'll see what happens. We'll talk a 48 00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:06.840 lot about that game. We're gonna have Matt muleback on 49 00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:10.479 the other side at the four seventeen hour that get 50 00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:12.360 his thoughts on what's going on because he's done a 51 00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:15.000 few games now already with Hugh A and maybe just 52 00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:18.960 get his college scope of college basketball. Then in the 53 00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:22.080 first hour. I'm looking forward to this because Steve Lynn 54 00:02:22.879 --> 00:02:26.680 Steven Yeah, game from the past, right. I saw him 55 00:02:26.680 --> 00:02:29.000 at McHale Center, and we'll ask you how you know him. 56 00:02:29.199 --> 00:02:32.159 I saw him at the mchas Center maybe ten days ago. 57 00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:35.439 You know, in the concessions, I say, there's Steve talked 58 00:02:35.439 --> 00:02:38.439 a little about stuff. I says, we miss missed those commercials, 59 00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:39.680 you know with Bill. 60 00:02:39.599 --> 00:02:42.000 Frieder, and now I'd love to talk about that. 61 00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:44.840 And you know, people our age know exactly what we're 62 00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:48.439 talking about. Uh, those good old day TV commercials where 63 00:02:48.560 --> 00:02:50.639 Luke was the was the good guy and Frieda was 64 00:02:50.680 --> 00:02:51.120 the bad guy. 65 00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:53.759 I know, they're so creative, you know, the talent. 66 00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:54.879 Uh. 67 00:02:55.039 --> 00:02:56.960 I'm curious, you know, to hear his when when he 68 00:02:57.000 --> 00:02:58.960 knew that he had the right chemistry between those two 69 00:02:59.000 --> 00:02:59.719 and how he made it happen. 70 00:02:59.759 --> 00:03:01.879 Yeah, we're going to talk to him how that did happen? 71 00:03:02.360 --> 00:03:04.360 Because it takes a creative mind to kind of pull 72 00:03:04.439 --> 00:03:07.159 that thing together. You're in the business where you have 73 00:03:07.159 --> 00:03:10.879 to kind of have creative minds, writers, producers and things 74 00:03:10.879 --> 00:03:11.400 like that. 75 00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:12.560 That'll be some great insight. 76 00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:15.080 And the last couple of times I've been here, we've 77 00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:17.000 been talking about, you know, kind of the history of 78 00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:19.159 the Wildcats and this is this is a fun part 79 00:03:19.199 --> 00:03:21.439 of that which did did this year. First time this 80 00:03:21.479 --> 00:03:23.520 week though, right, first time this week. But last week 81 00:03:23.560 --> 00:03:26.439 we talked about, you know, the coaching thing. We talked 82 00:03:26.520 --> 00:03:28.680 with Bob Elliott and you and you had him back on. 83 00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:30.479 We listened to you and you talked to him about 84 00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:30.879 doctor j. 85 00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:34.560 And then another guy tweeted, well, Dudlston tweeted, we had 86 00:03:34.599 --> 00:03:38.280 something about oh, well, Bert Williams, you know Bert from 87 00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:41.319 Williams and Associates. I do, Yeah, Yeah, he had some 88 00:03:41.360 --> 00:03:43.680 good stuff about you know, the Three Blind mice Y. Yeah. 89 00:03:43.800 --> 00:03:46.000 I did listen to him, and I love that and 90 00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:47.919 and I remember that I just I cracked up. So 91 00:03:47.960 --> 00:03:50.360 I think, you know, you and I the last time 92 00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:52.080 I was here, we were talking about the history and 93 00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:55.080 just the culture of the place and the loyalty of 94 00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:58.360 the fans, and it's it's not only just the player 95 00:03:58.439 --> 00:04:00.639 sometimes but it's the it's the support bard of people 96 00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:01.479 like Steven Berg. 97 00:04:01.639 --> 00:04:01.800 Right. 98 00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:03.560 One of the things that we talked about this week 99 00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:06.960 and off the air and on the air is bringing 100 00:04:07.000 --> 00:04:10.400 the uh bringing the who was that time you were 101 00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:10.719 the game? 102 00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:12.680 Oh man? That last season? 103 00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:15.240 Yeah, that's last season. Okay. And I'll ask Kennry this too, 104 00:04:15.240 --> 00:04:17.439 because uh part of it. And I got a text 105 00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:21.519 that it was pretty pretty biting from a fan from 106 00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:25.079 inside the macale saying that the game experience is horrible. 107 00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:32.879 It's not lively, it's it's old, it's worn. And I'm thinking, yeah, yeah, yeah, uh, 108 00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:35.199 and that needs to change. You know, we're halfway through 109 00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:37.639 the year. Uh, it may be too late this year, 110 00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:39.480 but you've got to start, you know, freshening it up 111 00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:42.959 a bit, because it's the same old bit from years. 112 00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:46.160 Right it was, and it's you know, you know, how 113 00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:48.839 long did the ou man you know do that? And 114 00:04:48.879 --> 00:04:51.120 it was great because it was from the eighties. Yeah, 115 00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:54.279 I was doing that up until until you couldn't and. 116 00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:56.920 He couldn't and he hadn't done it in a long time. Uh. 117 00:04:56.959 --> 00:04:59.439 And now we have you know, Phyllis or what's what 118 00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:01.079 her name is. She's dancing, but you know. 119 00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:03.759 Yeah, so I'm with you. I think that there's an 120 00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:06.800 opportunity to freshen up. You know, I'm not the person 121 00:05:06.839 --> 00:05:10.040 to do that because when you say, oh, my back resembles. 122 00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:12.480 That, well, you resemble a lot other people in the stadium, 123 00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:15.120 that's true. And that's the you guys yell, I mean hey, 124 00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:17.120 and and everybody wants to move the students on the 125 00:05:17.160 --> 00:05:21.000 side and blah blah bl be better cheers. Okay, sure 126 00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:23.319 that's not gonna happen because you need you need to 127 00:05:23.319 --> 00:05:26.480 sell those seats and the kids aren't guaranteed to go 128 00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:28.800 show up in those seats. Henry, do you how do 129 00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:30.680 you feel about the I know you came back for 130 00:05:30.759 --> 00:05:33.079 this one game, and the students were there and not there. 131 00:05:33.560 --> 00:05:37.839 They'll be there for Iowa State, but don't you think 132 00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:40.279 it needs to be more exciting than what it is? 133 00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:41.480 A little? 134 00:05:41.879 --> 00:05:43.800 I mean, obviously you guys would know better because you've 135 00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:45.360 been going to the games for a while. But I 136 00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:47.279 feel like in my four years, I feel like it's 137 00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:49.680 kind of stayed the same. I think this year might 138 00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:51.959 be a little better just because of the conference change 139 00:05:52.199 --> 00:05:54.600 to new teams and. 140 00:05:53.920 --> 00:05:55.480 And you were there for like U C L A. 141 00:05:55.680 --> 00:05:57.279 And you know, when it gets to the big games, 142 00:05:57.279 --> 00:06:01.160 it's it's okay, it's okay. It's not it's the right word, 143 00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:03.560 because it's not great, but it's okay. And you know, 144 00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:05.800 you guys are spitting them not that this is right. 145 00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:07.399 And I get on you guys for you know, F 146 00:06:07.439 --> 00:06:11.839 this and F that to the players and the UCLA guys. 147 00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:15.600 And that happens everywhere. I mean, no, kids are kids, 148 00:06:15.639 --> 00:06:17.000 and they're gonna do what they do, but it needs 149 00:06:17.040 --> 00:06:20.600 to be like more and football. What about football? Have 150 00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:21.279 you got in football? 151 00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:23.759 Last season? I went to football game previous. 152 00:06:24.199 --> 00:06:28.199 Previous, the previous season, and Henry, you go, yeah, those 153 00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:28.959 are boring. 154 00:06:29.439 --> 00:06:33.199 I yeah, I agreed, Yeah, I think so. I do 155 00:06:33.279 --> 00:06:36.839 not think if any time it was ever maybe last 156 00:06:36.920 --> 00:06:37.959 year like the U c l A. 157 00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:41.959 Game, whenever on the wind streak in football, in football 158 00:06:41.959 --> 00:06:45.040 two years ago, but not this past year. Yeah. Yeah. 159 00:06:45.079 --> 00:06:46.079 And it's the same. 160 00:06:46.480 --> 00:06:47.920 Henry, when you when you go to the football game, 161 00:06:47.920 --> 00:06:49.360 what time do you and your your buddies go. 162 00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:52.959 You probably get there like thirty minutes before the game. 163 00:06:52.959 --> 00:06:53.879 Thirty minutes before the game. 164 00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:56.160 So you're not you're not tailgating or anything like that 165 00:06:56.319 --> 00:06:58.720 or making sure, you're down there for the big you know, 166 00:06:58.759 --> 00:07:01.199 getting excited to get everybody, I'll riled up or anything 167 00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:01.600 like that. 168 00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:07.680 The till gets are okay. I think it's the stadium atmosphere, right, 169 00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:10.879 the speakers suck, right, you know we've all determined that 170 00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:14.759 that's true. And then the same songs and the same routines. 171 00:07:15.160 --> 00:07:17.279 And I'm not being mean to be mean, and that's 172 00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:18.160 what people are telling me. 173 00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:21.439 Well, you know, players are now seeing a different atmosphere, 174 00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:25.879 different different UH facilities, and so maybe they'll pick something up. 175 00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:27.920 I know when I've traveled around and you you go 176 00:07:28.000 --> 00:07:30.000 to U before we were in the Big twelve. You know, 177 00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:31.720 I go to games, I go to football games. You're like, 178 00:07:31.879 --> 00:07:36.079 holy smokes, you know the atmosphere. It's exciting, truly because 179 00:07:36.079 --> 00:07:39.480 it's different, but it was I think there's an opportunity 180 00:07:39.519 --> 00:07:42.000 to freshen it up, get some people excited. 181 00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:43.639 I'm with you. 182 00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:46.519 It's not bad, but it's you know, yeah, but it's 183 00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:47.319 not good changes. 184 00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:49.560 It's like when you go to UH. It's funny, you 185 00:07:49.600 --> 00:07:51.560 go to a pizza place. I just like it. It 186 00:07:51.600 --> 00:07:54.959 wasn't bad. What the hell does that tell me?

Yeah, I had a freshen 204 00:08:24.399 --> 00:08:26.399 up to it's a new man. 205 00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:28.160 You know you're on the air nine the ball. Who's this? 206 00:08:29.160 --> 00:08:29.720 This is Brian. 207 00:08:29.800 --> 00:08:30.959 How's it going, Bryan? 208 00:08:31.439 --> 00:08:34.039 Did you take us Yester for the holidays or something? 209 00:08:34.519 --> 00:08:34.759 Well? 210 00:08:34.799 --> 00:08:36.600 I was, I was out of town for a while 211 00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:41.440 and did that stuff, and uh, yeah I haven't been around. 212 00:08:41.519 --> 00:08:44.200 Tell me what's your solution? You have a solution for us? 213 00:08:44.759 --> 00:08:47.399 Uh? Maybe we need to get better teams in here. 214 00:08:48.360 --> 00:08:51.279 You know, I'm I'm sorry, but back in back in 215 00:08:51.320 --> 00:08:54.679 the eighties and nineties, you know, Yeah, we had decent 216 00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:59.000 preseason schedules. Yeah, you know, I mean it's it's hard. 217 00:08:59.120 --> 00:09:03.360 It's hard to get except about Central Michigan, yeah, or 218 00:09:03.759 --> 00:09:07.480 or some southeast North Dakota state, whatever hell it is. 219 00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:10.159 You know, are you talking both sports, football and basketball? 220 00:09:10.559 --> 00:09:14.080 Yes, yes, well, you know, football is a lot different 221 00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:18.200 because it's really this is not a football school. You know. 222 00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:21.919 Even when we were doing well last year in twenty 223 00:09:21.960 --> 00:09:25.399 three not twenty four, we still didn't get to sell 224 00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:30.279 out crowds and we were winning games. Yeah, but basketball, 225 00:09:30.480 --> 00:09:33.759 basketball is a whole different animal, I think, because you know, 226 00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:36.600 they if we had decent teams. I mean, the Duke 227 00:09:36.639 --> 00:09:39.279 game was great to watch. I mean that we lost, 228 00:09:39.519 --> 00:09:41.600 but the fans were really into the game, even though 229 00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:43.840 it was a late game. I mean, the fans were 230 00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:46.879 really into it, you know, but that was Duke, you know, 231 00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:49.000 and it wasn't too bad. I didn't think the fans 232 00:09:49.000 --> 00:09:52.279 were that bad at the Baylor game, of course, but 233 00:09:52.559 --> 00:09:55.759 having the nine o'clock game didn't didn't really help, you know, 234 00:09:55.840 --> 00:10:00.240 during the middle of the week. But you know, us, 235 00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:02.240 I don't know if all the students were back by then, 236 00:10:02.360 --> 00:10:05.000 I'm not too sure. The student section was more full 237 00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:06.960 than it was the game before on Saturday. 238 00:10:08.600 --> 00:10:09.720 Yeah, you're. 239 00:10:10.879 --> 00:10:13.120 We need to get better teams in here in the preseason, 240 00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:16.120 you know, to get people hyped up. I mean, okay, 241 00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:18.679 so we lost four or five games in the pre 242 00:10:18.919 --> 00:10:22.519 in the pre conference schedule, but all those games were 243 00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:26.080 either you know, they were out of town, you know, 244 00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:27.799 I know, the one was in Phoenix and had a 245 00:10:27.799 --> 00:10:31.519 pretty good turnout, you know, not that not great, but 246 00:10:31.600 --> 00:10:35.919 it wasn't that bad. But they still they need needed 247 00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:38.039 to pick up the schedule and have you know, and 248 00:10:38.159 --> 00:10:40.639 I know it's harder because a lot of teams don't 249 00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:42.679 want to do a home and home and need you 250 00:10:42.720 --> 00:10:45.000 got to worry about what TV, how much money they 251 00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:45.480 want to pay. 252 00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:49.360 You on TV. Yeah, no, I agree with you. I 253 00:10:49.360 --> 00:10:49.840 agree with you. 254 00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:52.279 Do you think do you think that we missed out 255 00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:54.600 on the preseason hype? Do you miss any of that 256 00:10:54.639 --> 00:10:55.679 stuff that they used to do? 257 00:10:56.919 --> 00:10:57.080 Oh? 258 00:10:57.639 --> 00:10:58.000 Very much? 259 00:10:58.039 --> 00:10:58.120 So. 260 00:10:58.360 --> 00:10:59.519 I mean do you think if we brought that back? 261 00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:01.759 I mean, let's if we get the fans excited early on. 262 00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:05.320 Well, I think the fans that get excited if we 263 00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:10.559 had a decent preseason schedule. Yeah, you know. And but 264 00:11:10.559 --> 00:11:13.679 but you know, I don't I watch, you know, I 265 00:11:13.720 --> 00:11:15.519 watch a lot of basketball on TV, and you watch, 266 00:11:15.720 --> 00:11:17.840 you know, Gonzaga plays a lot of home games against 267 00:11:17.840 --> 00:11:21.840 decent teams, you know, in a home and home you know. Yeah, 268 00:11:21.840 --> 00:11:23.879 and you know what why can't we You know. 269 00:11:23.879 --> 00:11:26.320 Well, Bry before the season started, and I said this, 270 00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:29.360 if you had season tickets, great because they'll pass. You 271 00:11:29.399 --> 00:11:33.399 had season tickets. The schedule sucked in Shawn's time and 272 00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:36.000 in Tommy's early times. But now you had these guys 273 00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:38.519 coming in right shirt here, But here's the equalizer to that. 274 00:11:38.639 --> 00:11:40.639 You had tickets, But now they're getting the games at 275 00:11:40.639 --> 00:11:43.159 eight thirty nine o'clock. So that kind of trumps that. 276 00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:45.679 Trump's the schedule, right, it. 277 00:11:45.679 --> 00:11:48.879 Does, you know. And unfortunately, well, one other thing I 278 00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:50.960 was surprised to see at the game the other night, 279 00:11:50.960 --> 00:11:53.759 at nine o'clock game, that a lot of the older 280 00:11:53.840 --> 00:11:56.399 fans did not leave with five minutes to go in 281 00:11:56.440 --> 00:11:57.519 the game. They were still there. 282 00:11:57.440 --> 00:11:59.840 Toward the end, right, No, because that's what the rally, 283 00:12:00.399 --> 00:12:03.720 that's what the rallies. Hey, Mildred, let's not go yet, 284 00:12:03.720 --> 00:12:06.960 because it could be you could get close here, right, 285 00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:07.279 you know. 286 00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:09.600 And I was really surprised to see that because usually 287 00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:11.840 with five minutes to go in the game, that that 288 00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:13.080 place is half empty. 289 00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:15.080 Yeah, gotta get to the parking. 290 00:12:14.840 --> 00:12:16.360 All on the bottom section. 291 00:12:17.320 --> 00:12:20.200 Yeah no, so it's not there's almost fault that they 292 00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:23.120 screwed him with the times. And that's what they've done, right, 293 00:12:23.360 --> 00:12:24.679 that purposely Just what it is. 294 00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:26.320 That's what it is. That's the Big twelve. I mean, 295 00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:28.480 that's I mean, they've always played on those lakes. 296 00:12:28.840 --> 00:12:30.720 Just what You're gonna have to get used to it. Uh, 297 00:12:30.879 --> 00:12:33.279 we'll see what happens. We'll see what happens. When I 298 00:12:33.320 --> 00:12:36.879 was stayed on Monday next Monday. 299 00:12:36.080 --> 00:12:38.960 Right, you know, that's that's the eight thirty one, right, Yeah. 300 00:12:39.639 --> 00:12:42.159 Isn't there one more nine o'clock game after that? 301 00:12:42.320 --> 00:12:44.639 Yes, there's a there's a there's at least another one. 302 00:12:44.759 --> 00:12:47.720 Yeah, yeah, you know, And and it's hard, you know, 303 00:12:47.919 --> 00:12:50.919 like you got a caller yesterday who called about, you know, 304 00:12:51.000 --> 00:12:52.679 going to the game, but he can't take his kids. 305 00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:56.919 Yeah it's too late, right, and you know, and luckily, 306 00:12:57.120 --> 00:12:58.799 you know, all my kids are all growing up and 307 00:12:58.840 --> 00:13:01.200 I'm retired, don't to worry about getting up early in 308 00:13:01.279 --> 00:13:04.559 the morning. But you know, I mean, I can understand 309 00:13:04.559 --> 00:13:07.519 where you know, younger families they can't go, so it's 310 00:13:07.559 --> 00:13:09.360 really kind of hard to identify with this. 311 00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:12.919 Team, right.
