Charles be out of pocket sometimes 87 00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:00,759 with his takes. Charles is I feel like out of 88 00:04:00,759 --> 00:04:04,280 pocket once every time on television. JT is not one 89 00:04:04,319 --> 00:04:06,439 side of pocket. Every time on radio. But yet the 90 00:04:06,479 --> 00:04:08,560 comparison I think is right. And here's the thing, from 91 00:04:08,599 --> 00:04:10,800 the definitely of the playing the basketball standpoint, you are 92 00:04:11,039 --> 00:04:13,560 because you did not take crap from nobody on the court, 93 00:04:13,759 --> 00:04:18,120 and you rebound, you shot threes, youre aggressive one hundred percent, 94 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:19,000 no doubt on dred percent. 95 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:20,759 Speaker 1: And he's bigger and distrong a. 96 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 5: Am I the Mormon of trade ball? 97 00:04:25,399 --> 00:04:26,319 Speaker 8: Yes? 98 00:04:26,879 --> 00:04:29,199 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, see No, you definitely are a net regard 99 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:30,120 And that's a compliment. 100 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:30,399 Speaker 5: Right. 101 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,959 Speaker 3: People respect Charles and what he did, and now he's 102 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,279 over there with ESPN and they're gonna do a phenomenal job. 103 00:04:35,319 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 1: So I think that's definitely the biggest thing. 104 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 3: And you, like Charles, are not afraid to knock somebody's 105 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,360 block off if you need to, So I think you 106 00:04:42,399 --> 00:04:43,319 always need those people. 107 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, the Charles Barkley of the Mormon faith, I 108 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,000 like that. I'll take that in that regard. JT. 109 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 3: Though we saw it the other day yesterday, in particular 110 00:04:51,439 --> 00:04:53,439 Boia basketball, we were waiting on it. I wanted to 111 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,680 know if they'd be ranked top five, probably think they 112 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:57,759 weren't gonna get there, but would they be top seven, 113 00:04:57,879 --> 00:05:01,560 top ten? Come in number eight in the preseason poll. 114 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,079 That's where they will be. Your thoughts on it? Too 115 00:05:04,199 --> 00:05:05,360 high to low? 116 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 1: Just right? Seems like there's a target on our back now. 117 00:05:09,639 --> 00:05:12,199 Speaker 4: Well, so I'm actually surprised that you said that there 118 00:05:12,199 --> 00:05:14,120 would be number of top five. 119 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:18,199 Speaker 7: I think that's I mean, I I'm surprised. 120 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 8: That we are number eight, I you know, to be fair, 121 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:21,399 you know, and. 122 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,959 Speaker 4: I think BYU football for you know, the reasons that 123 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,439 I think we all know, and you guys are much 124 00:05:28,519 --> 00:05:31,680 more quipped to discuss football than I am. But it 125 00:05:31,759 --> 00:05:35,160 is interesting to see buy you're ranked at all, you know, 126 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,319 to start a preseason poll, but now to being in 127 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:43,120 the top ten, you know, I'm I'm surprised as any right, 128 00:05:43,759 --> 00:05:46,959 I think that that's something that nobody really talked about, 129 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:47,839 you know. 130 00:05:48,079 --> 00:05:51,319 Speaker 8: But now to start a season, they're gonna say number eight. 131 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,519 Speaker 4: B YU think about that, and you know, like there 132 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:59,120 is something about that, and uh, you know, and I 133 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,199 think it comes with respect now, you know, like Uncle 134 00:06:02,319 --> 00:06:07,360 Ben said, with great power comes great responsibility. And I 135 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,639 think the interesting thing is Kevin Young is all about 136 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:10,160 that hype. 137 00:06:10,319 --> 00:06:13,319 Speaker 8: Kevin Young is all about that, you know, come on 138 00:06:13,399 --> 00:06:13,800 me and. 139 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 4: Love it, and we're gonna do it, and we're going 140 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,800 to be the best and so interesting to see how, 141 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:24,720 you know, how the team reacts. And you know, most 142 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,879 of these guys weren't here when you know, when Mark Pope, 143 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,319 I mean aside from Richie and and maybe some other 144 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,279 some other guys here and there, nobody was really here 145 00:06:33,319 --> 00:06:36,600 when Mark Pope was around, and b YU was, oh, hey, 146 00:06:36,639 --> 00:06:39,839 we're just happy to be ranked, right, And so I 147 00:06:39,879 --> 00:06:45,079 think with this the new I don't want to say 148 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,839 crops because I don't want to have a negative thing, 149 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,160 but with this new wave of folks joining b y U, 150 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:53,959 this is about to become the norm. 151 00:06:54,079 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 8: And how crazy, you know, I think about it. 152 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 4: Danny Ainge didn't have this because I was with Gimmer 153 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,879 so much and so for so long we didn't have this. 154 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,079 And so for BUYU to be ranked in a preseason 155 00:07:07,079 --> 00:07:11,279 poll and to start a season you know that high. 156 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,199 You know, like we mentioned before, the size of the 157 00:07:14,279 --> 00:07:19,399 bow's eye that has been now you know, cemented on it. 158 00:07:19,399 --> 00:07:20,879 Speaker 5: It is going to be a big one. 159 00:07:21,839 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 4: Now I hope that you know, the now I know 160 00:07:24,399 --> 00:07:27,639 we're going to talk about this, but there's basketball this week, 161 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,959 and I hope that the exhibition game against Nebraska. If 162 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:37,040 by chance, BUYU loses it, you know what's the reprocution 163 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,199 is going to be right, And so I think that that, 164 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,720 out of itself, creates the biggest peer pressure, especially because 165 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,959 next week Carolina comes to town and that's uh, that's 166 00:07:47,959 --> 00:07:49,120 a number twenty five team. 167 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:52,399 Speaker 5: Based on the rankings, you know, Jaz, we. 168 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,959 Speaker 2: Know that, with all due respect to the A people, 169 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,160 a lot of it is based on hype. And when 170 00:07:59,199 --> 00:08:02,519 I say that, what I mean is every single person 171 00:08:02,519 --> 00:08:05,160 who votes on this doesn't know the ins and out 172 00:08:05,279 --> 00:08:06,720 of every single team. 173 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 1: That they put in the top twenty five. 174 00:08:08,279 --> 00:08:11,079 Speaker 2: A lot of it is they just know the storylines, 175 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,000 but they don't always know the team. How much of 176 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:18,240 BYU being ranked in the top ten do you think 177 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:22,000 is a product of AP voters? They know Kevin Young's 178 00:08:21,959 --> 00:08:24,319 story from last year, but even more than that, they 179 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,920 know that BYU brings in the number one overall crew. 180 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 4: Well, and not only dad the I would also say 181 00:08:31,199 --> 00:08:33,159 that it's also the fact that they had the number 182 00:08:33,159 --> 00:08:35,279 three recruiting class in the country around all. 183 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 5: You know, I think when. 184 00:08:36,879 --> 00:08:40,919 Speaker 4: You also add Robert you know, Robert Wright and Richie 185 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,519 coming back in aj and you know, and then you 186 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,480 also look at right, and you look at Xavier On 187 00:08:47,639 --> 00:08:50,720 and you look at Canar Davis and Kadeem, and you 188 00:08:50,759 --> 00:08:52,720 look at all of these guys, and the list goes 189 00:08:52,799 --> 00:08:56,080 on and on and on, because I mean one or not, 190 00:08:56,279 --> 00:09:00,639 you know, like Kadeem was at the NBA Academy, right, 191 00:09:00,879 --> 00:09:04,320 and uh, you know he was, you know, for all 192 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,919 intents and purposes, being groomed to go to the NBA. 193 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:08,759 Speaker 5: Right. 194 00:09:08,799 --> 00:09:10,399 Speaker 4: I mean, that's the path that these guys in the 195 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:15,080 NBA Academy are are set on for all intents and purposes. 196 00:09:15,279 --> 00:09:19,159 Speaker 8: Brody is a top one hundred recruit, right, and so. 197 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 4: Dominique Diamonde has had an incredible international career so far. 198 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,200 And then you add someone like, you know, a lot 199 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:29,799 of Alexey by the way, I don't know if you 200 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,279 guys had a chance to watch, but Alexei was phenomenal 201 00:09:32,279 --> 00:09:33,519 in the blue and white yeah. 202 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:36,639 Speaker 5: Play. 203 00:09:37,759 --> 00:09:40,039 Speaker 4: Can we just talk about that We should be grateful 204 00:09:40,039 --> 00:09:43,159 that for the time being, guys that played in the 205 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,159 professional leagues in Europe or in the euro League itself, 206 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:47,519 that they're allowed to. 207 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:48,279 Speaker 5: Come to the US. 208 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 4: Because you can tell Alexe has that experience of I'm 209 00:09:53,399 --> 00:09:55,440 a guard, I'm gonna take care of the ball. 210 00:09:55,519 --> 00:09:56,919 Speaker 5: I'm not gonna turn the ball over. 211 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 4: I'm gonna be efficient with the time that I'm given 212 00:09:59,799 --> 00:10:02,320 a very European mindset, right. 213 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,799 Speaker 5: And he I would be. 214 00:10:06,159 --> 00:10:07,759 Speaker 4: Now, I don't know if he's gonna get six and 215 00:10:07,759 --> 00:10:11,080 sevens assist a game, but I would be surprised if 216 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,840 Alexei even averages a turnover a game. 217 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 5: Wow. 218 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,799 Speaker 4: And so that's how, that's how, that's how the what 219 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,480 I see from him in terms of pacing himself taking 220 00:10:23,519 --> 00:10:24,240 care of the ball. 221 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 5: Now, he is most likely going to be the prime. 222 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 4: The secondary, the secondary, primary ball handler or the primary 223 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,639 ball handler number two, let's just put it that way, 224 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,279 right after Robert Wright. 225 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,799 Speaker 5: And because I mean, who else you guys gonna think 226 00:10:39,879 --> 00:10:41,679 is gonna come in and play point guard? 227 00:10:41,919 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 2: You know, we saw aj bring up the ball a 228 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:47,960 lot in the Blue White game. And I know it 229 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,720 was Blue White game, but do you expect to see 230 00:10:51,159 --> 00:10:53,840 possessions where he is the guy bringing the ball up 231 00:10:53,879 --> 00:10:57,399 now that we're talking about. 232 00:10:56,039 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 4: Especially because he's a great rebounder, and I definitely understand 233 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:03,200 why you know he will he will be the one 234 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,000 that brings the ball up and he will initiate the 235 00:11:05,039 --> 00:11:09,559 offense absolutely now to that extent, we also saw Richie 236 00:11:09,799 --> 00:11:11,759 Richie do it as sometimes last year. 237 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:12,399 Speaker 5: Right. 238 00:11:13,799 --> 00:11:15,919 Speaker 4: You know, I don't know if you know Keva's going 239 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,639 to get the rebound, initiate the offense or Xavion, but 240 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,080 you know, I definitely think that, you know, AJ can 241 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,240 be to the extent that a little bit more than 242 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,200 Richie because AJ seems to be a little bit more 243 00:11:29,279 --> 00:11:33,799 comfortable you know, creating, you know, creating things. Right now, 244 00:11:33,879 --> 00:11:35,679 This is not a knock on Richie at all, but 245 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,159 AJ his game. I've always said that if he tight 246 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,120 his handles, and I don't mean again, not a negative 247 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:47,039 knock on AJ, but if AJ were to like tie 248 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,360 his handles a lot, I see a Penny Hardaway more 249 00:11:50,399 --> 00:11:52,679 than I see a Kevin Garnett or a Kevin Durant. 250 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 5: And I've said this before. 251 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 4: People look at me funny, and I'm like, look look 252 00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:59,399 at me funny all you want, And uh, you know, 253 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,320 I've been there, I've done that. If a J a 254 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,399 lot of the times you see his handles, it's a 255 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,840 little bit too wide, and you know, his crossovers are 256 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:12,759 a little bit you know, like, but his frame, he is, guys, 257 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:16,279 he has built very much like Penny is. 258 00:12:17,039 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 8: Like, and so I personally feel like a j. 259 00:12:21,919 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 4: Yes, he's gonna be a forward. He has a scorer, 260 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,919 he has there's the T Mac comparison. Yeah, there's a team, 261 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,840 the trace, you know, the the Kevin Garnett. Yeah, there's 262 00:12:30,879 --> 00:12:34,039 the you know, the KD and all of this. I 263 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,360 see Penny hardaway, you know, if he ties his handles 264 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:41,320 and he's able to be a little bit more. I 265 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,080 don't want to again, right, I mean, he's a memori 266 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:44,639 of Kidney the country, so how can you knock? 267 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 5: But like as you watch him, just watch the ball 268 00:12:47,799 --> 00:12:49,000 is not close to his body. 269 00:12:49,039 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 4: He doesn't play like and then watching watch Penny play, 270 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:55,519 Penny would spin and the ball would never leave like 271 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,440 his you know the side of his body. And so 272 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:03,120 you know, I I see Aj as a potential as 273 00:13:03,159 --> 00:13:07,159 a potential like you know, like obviously not a point guard, 274 00:13:07,279 --> 00:13:09,879 but as a potential guard way more than I see 275 00:13:09,879 --> 00:13:11,159 Aj as a forward. 276 00:13:11,799 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. 277 00:13:12,039 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 3: I think that's a good point in your regard. And 278 00:13:13,919 --> 00:13:15,639 we're not looking at you finding we both like, oh 279 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,120 that's a good comparison and opinion. 280 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 1: I see it when I watched one thing he brings. 281 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,039 Speaker 3: I'm letty brought up the handles because I'm specifically seeing 282 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,240 Agent dribble wide sure, right, And I just think in 283 00:13:25,279 --> 00:13:27,919 the Big twelve, depending on how they're gonna blitz him, 284 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,080 he could turn the ball over depending how he's dribbling, 285 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:32,799 and not because he's a bad play, but just like 286 00:13:32,799 --> 00:13:34,360 with how physical they're going to try to be with 287 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,480 him now because of the big friend, he's gonna. 288 00:13:36,279 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 2: Draw a lot of fouls, right, And that's what I 289 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,240 wanted to ask JT about because we saw that a 290 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,679 ton in the Blue White scrimmage where a frame was 291 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:46,120 a problem. Like I don't know, I'm not really qualified 292 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,039 to critique the handles, but what I can tell you 293 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:49,840 is he could get to the rim, and when he 294 00:13:49,919 --> 00:13:51,559 got to the rim, he got fouled, and it felt 295 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,840 like he was shooting free throws all night. JT's not 296 00:13:53,879 --> 00:13:58,159 going to continue when actual play starts. 297 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 4: So I would say this going back to the two 298 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,600 thousand and five season, when Kobe shot like twenty free 299 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,080 throws a game, it seemed like and you know, but 300 00:14:10,279 --> 00:14:13,960 like it is difficult man, that night in and night out, 301 00:14:14,159 --> 00:14:18,120 you're getting to the line, you know, more like I 302 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,080 don't want to say ten times because that's that's just 303 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,600 a crazy number. But like shooting eight free throws a game, 304 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,799 it takes a toll on your body. 305 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 5: It really does. 306 00:14:28,039 --> 00:14:30,279 Speaker 4: Now there is a difference between you know, it's a 307 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:31,840 close game and you're just you know. 308 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,399 Speaker 5: Patting your stats. But you know, like I'll tell you 309 00:14:35,519 --> 00:14:37,440 from from experience. 310 00:14:38,159 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 4: Trent placed it, it took a toll on his body 311 00:14:41,399 --> 00:14:42,240 shooting free throws. 312 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,159 Speaker 5: Keene Young, it took a toll on his body shooting 313 00:14:45,159 --> 00:14:45,960 free throws. 314 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 4: Halfa was a nightmare to guard because you were so big. 315 00:14:51,039 --> 00:14:52,679 Speaker 5: But he took a toll on his body. 316 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:56,279 Speaker 4: Same thing with Tyler Hawes, right, same thing with Joli Child's. 317 00:14:56,799 --> 00:14:58,159 Speaker 5: It takes a toll. 318 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:02,159 Speaker 4: Getting to the lane and then getting fouled, right, And 319 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,879 so is that sustainable? If it is sustainable, I gotta say, 320 00:15:07,039 --> 00:15:10,120 you know, he's going to be at a level that 321 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:11,840 none of us thought he was even at. 322 00:15:12,639 --> 00:15:15,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's gonna be pretty crazy. Indeed, Brett's gonna draw 323 00:15:15,679 --> 00:15:18,240 some stats in just a second. But let's transition just 324 00:15:18,279 --> 00:15:22,240 a little bit. BYU Nebraska this Saturday eleven am are 325 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:23,600 going to be at the Pinnacle Bank are and that 326 00:15:23,639 --> 00:15:26,720 they're on the road in the exhibition game, right, these 327 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,399 exhibition games. He's used to be the close scrimmagers, private 328 00:15:29,399 --> 00:15:32,919 scrimmages that fans weren't allowed to. Now fans can attend 329 00:15:32,919 --> 00:15:36,000 this Saturday. We heard in the postgame h JT from 330 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,679 Kevin Young. He's not going to try to hide anything, 331 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,080 you know, from Nebraska. He told them what the coverages are. 332 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,120 They're not going to try to trick them. I want 333 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:44,919 you to shet some mind on this ee you had 334 00:15:44,919 --> 00:15:47,799 mentioned earlier. If they don't win, I don't want fans 335 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,840 to have a knee jerk reaction. I know it's different 336 00:15:49,879 --> 00:15:52,159 when you're playing North Carolina because he'll be an eight 337 00:15:52,279 --> 00:15:55,159 versus twenty five exhibition game, But I feel like these 338 00:15:55,159 --> 00:15:58,440 exhibition games are chances for players like Rob Wright, Richie 339 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,919 Agent to solidify potential big three that we see. 340 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 4: You know, we used to scrimmage Western College, University, State Fair, 341 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:10,919 Boo Boo State. 342 00:16:11,679 --> 00:16:15,759 Speaker 5: You know, uh, you know, and these guys are scrimmaging 343 00:16:15,879 --> 00:16:20,360 Nebraska and North Carolina.

More important to me than their rotation and 371 00:17:42,039 --> 00:17:44,400 the guy's coming off the bench more important to me 372 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,519 is how will Robert ride a J. 373 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 5: And Richie. 374 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:53,519 Speaker 4: H connect and how will they play together and how 375 00:17:53,559 --> 00:17:57,240 will that unravel?

They're still learning. This is college basketball, so 384 00:18:16,279 --> 00:18:18,480 your teams are always new. But on the other hand, 385 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,559 you come in and say you have Kevin Mung, who's 386 00:18:20,559 --> 00:18:22,559 one of the best coaches in America. We talked about 387 00:18:22,599 --> 00:18:25,000 the recruiting class. We know the guys are who are 388 00:18:25,279 --> 00:18:28,559 on this team. How much stock do you put in 389 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,640 what BYU does or doesn't do in their exhibition games? 390 00:18:34,559 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 4: I think the first so to be one hundred percent 391 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,119 honest with you, to me, I'm gonna give. 392 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,039 Speaker 5: A lot of a lot of. 393 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,279 Speaker 4: A lot not credit, but I'm gonna give a lot 394 00:18:46,279 --> 00:18:49,359 of weight to what happens the first the first fifteen 395 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:50,519 minutes into the. 396 00:18:50,559 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 5: Very last TV timeout. 397 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 4: Okay, one hundred percent honesty, because you know they're gonna 398 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,640 play their starters and their potential starters the first five 399 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:02,599 six minutes, and then you know that the first subs 400 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,559 are going to be the real subs and not people 401 00:19:04,559 --> 00:19:07,480 that Kevin Young is just trying to throw it out 402 00:19:07,519 --> 00:19:10,400 there to see. And then right after that is going 403 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:12,599 to be the starters are maybe going to be coming back. 404 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:15,119 But then who's Kevin Young going to look at right 405 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,279 away to see gonna come off the bench? Remember it 406 00:19:18,599 --> 00:19:22,799 took about six seven games before Trevin Nell came back 407 00:19:22,839 --> 00:19:27,039 into the starting lineup, And so I'm interested to see 408 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,200 who is going to be the first eight guys that 409 00:19:29,279 --> 00:19:32,680 he plays. The first eight guys that Kevin Young plays, 410 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,559 to me, is going to dictate, you know, the who 411 00:19:36,559 --> 00:19:39,079 are the guys that have that have stood out the 412 00:19:39,079 --> 00:19:42,519 most doing camp and uh and you know, at least 413 00:19:42,519 --> 00:19:45,079 to begin with, who are going to be the guys. 414 00:19:44,839 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 5: That he trust the most? 415 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,160 Speaker 4: And so I'm interested to see where Dawson Baker falls 416 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,400 into that that mix. Right, we haven't seen a ton 417 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,640 of Dawson Baker this year yet, and and last year 418 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:01,279 he was a constant contributor in our rotation. Guy much 419 00:20:01,319 --> 00:20:04,000 more so than Mahilo. We didn't see a ton of 420 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,160 Mohilo last year. We would see him sporadically. We would 421 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,839 see Mohilo come out of nowhere and either save us 422 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,160 a game or come in and then come out right away. 423 00:20:12,759 --> 00:20:13,119 Speaker 5: And so. 424 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 4: You know, I think jareded McGregor is a great story. 425 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,119 I don't see him getting a ton of playing time 426 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:24,119 this year, But then after that, these are all guys 427 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,680 that would be perennial rotation players and get a lot 428 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:31,039 of minutes in any other college team in America, you know. 429 00:20:31,559 --> 00:20:34,319 And so you look at that, you know, how is 430 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,519 Brody going to react? Is he gonna get playing time? 431 00:20:36,759 --> 00:20:38,920 What is it going to be his role? You're looking, 432 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:46,759 I'm looking at the team picture right now. That is one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen. 433 00:20:47,279 --> 00:20:53,640 That is fourteen guys today that you know that could 434 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:57,480 easily have a lot of playing time at a mid 435 00:20:57,519 --> 00:21:01,599 major in college right now, but they're at b YU. 436 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,680 You already know you can't play You can maybe play 437 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:08,079 eleven and that is a lot. You can definitely play nine. 438 00:21:09,319 --> 00:21:13,200 But you know you're already getting crazy, crazy, you know crazy, 439 00:21:14,759 --> 00:21:18,559 you know crazy options when playing ten and so uh, 440 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:20,880 to me, I want to look at the first you know, 441 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,200 all the way up to the last TV time out. 442 00:21:23,279 --> 00:21:25,599 To me, that's gonna be the core guys that Kevin 443 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:27,000 Young trusts in right away. 444 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 2: JD, do you have an idea of who the five 445 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,599 starters will be and then who those next five guys 446 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,079 will be coming off the bench. 447 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,559 Speaker 4: I'm gonna give you my personal opinion on everything that 448 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:41,319 I have seen. 449 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,279 Speaker 5: Okay, I'm gonna tell you. 450 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 4: That Mahilo, Mahi Loo and Alexe and Kadeem and Dominique 451 00:21:51,519 --> 00:21:55,200 and Xavion. Out of those guys, I would say that 452 00:21:55,880 --> 00:22:03,559 Alexe and Xavion are you know, probably within the first ten, right, 453 00:22:03,799 --> 00:22:06,119 I don't. I would say that day to me, are 454 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,160 going to be the first the first subs. 455 00:22:08,559 --> 00:22:09,559 Speaker 5: That's my opinion. 456 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,279 Speaker 4: Now, the starters to me is going, if everybody's healthy, 457 00:22:13,319 --> 00:22:15,680 it's going to be Robert Wright and. 458 00:22:15,599 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 5: Then Richie and then a J. 459 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:26,799 Speaker 4: With Canard Davis. Uh with Canard Davis at the four 460 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:33,079 and Keba at the five. Now this is my personal opinion. Right, 461 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:35,440 you can make the argument that kadem may. 462 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 5: Start over Canard. 463 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:41,400 Speaker 4: I just don't see uh Nate Pickens starting especially at 464 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:46,400 six three Meg, Well, Meg was about six five sixty six, right, 465 00:22:46,559 --> 00:22:48,960 and and and that's a big difference. You can play 466 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,319 the four in college like I did, right, and so 467 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,160 to me, that's the starting five. 468 00:22:53,279 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 8: And then you know, uh Kadem. 469 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 5: And Xavion. 470 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:03,559 Speaker 4: And Robert and uh Alexey make up the eight by 471 00:23:03,759 --> 00:23:06,000 everything you know. And then I'm wondering, is he gonna 472 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,319 go with with uh with Tyler, or he's he gonna 473 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:10,000 go with Baker? 474 00:23:10,559 --> 00:23:12,519 Speaker 5: Is he gonna go with you. 475 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 4: Know, Brody, or he's gonna go with Myhi Low? And 476 00:23:15,759 --> 00:23:19,039 where does Dominique play? And all of this as well, right, 477 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:23,480 and so again that's the reason why I'm very curious 478 00:23:23,519 --> 00:23:25,960 for the first for the first fifteen minutes of the game. 479 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:30,119 That's gonna tell you a lot, especially next week against 480 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:33,240 North Carolina. That's gonna tell you who's the main who's 481 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,359 the main rotation for the you know, to start the year. 482 00:23:36,599 --> 00:23:39,559 Speaker 3: With Jonathan Tavanar on the lone in the college basketball segment, 483 00:23:39,759 --> 00:23:43,160 former bou basketball great, the ESPN The Fan college basketball analyst, 484 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:44,519 I love to start the lineup. 485 00:23:44,559 --> 00:23:45,279 Speaker 1: I love the rotation. 486 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,839 Speaker 3: Position battles have been something interesting and intriguing to me 487 00:23:49,319 --> 00:23:51,960 all off season. Now it's finally here, we're gonna see it. 488 00:23:52,319 --> 00:23:54,559 And just want to remind coagre nation. Just because you 489 00:23:54,599 --> 00:23:56,799 may see a certain lineup or a certain guy might 490 00:23:56,839 --> 00:24:00,240 not play, reminder cannon catchings, you know, work themselves, file 491 00:24:00,279 --> 00:24:03,440 the rotation tray and what work themselves in. So it's 492 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,880 always a possibility that any one of these guys can 493 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:07,720 get more playing time by the end, because you want 494 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,680 to be peaking in February, in March, right around the tournament. 495 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:10,920 Speaker 5: J T. 496 00:24:11,079 --> 00:24:13,079 Speaker 3: Let's get you out of here on this transition to 497 00:24:13,079 --> 00:24:15,200 a little football. Been ONLFE that I did this the 498 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,599 rivalry game anytime BAU as an opportunity to you know, 499 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:19,599 beat Utah. 500 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 1: Your thoughts on this Saturday. 501 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,319 Speaker 3: Don't know if you'll be in the tennis, but you 502 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,119 might be watching virtually from home. 503 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,039 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, uh, you know, why can I say 504 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:32,920 I hate them? I hite them vout my heart. I 505 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:34,200 think they're classless. 506 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:35,839 Speaker 5: I think that I think that. 507 00:24:35,839 --> 00:24:38,799 Speaker 4: You know, they they're just they're terrible, and you know, 508 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,640 they just I think the whole university and all their 509 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:43,960 fans and everything about them, they're just classless. 510 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 5: And I hate them. 511 00:24:45,559 --> 00:24:47,559 Speaker 4: I every single one of them have talked about them, 512 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,960 so jokes, jokes aside. 513 00:24:50,559 --> 00:24:53,839 Speaker 1: From quoting my eyes some Max Hall, I don't know. 514 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:55,799 Speaker 5: I don't like Utah. In fact, I hate them. I 515 00:24:55,799 --> 00:24:57,799 have anything about them. I hate their program, their fans. 516 00:24:58,000 --> 00:24:59,319 I hate everything about Utah. 517 00:24:59,559 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 4: So now obviously that's not how I feel about Utah. 518 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,839 You know, it's a rivalry game, man, It's supposed to 519 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:12,160 be fun, you know, I you know it's it's part. 520 00:25:12,319 --> 00:25:18,519 I will say this, College rivalries are the absolute best 521 00:25:18,599 --> 00:25:20,960 because it doesn't matter if your team is good or bad. 522 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:26,880 The fan base rallies around in a way that is super, 523 00:25:27,039 --> 00:25:31,279 super amazing. I will say that Red Sox and Yankee 524 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,400 sometimes the team have a good year, bad year. It's 525 00:25:34,519 --> 00:25:37,759 not the same Lakers and Celtics.
