38
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:14.479

39
00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:15.520

40
00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:19.199

42
00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:26.439
<v Speaker 3>Some Arizona football news involving the transfer portal x Utah

43
00:02:26.520 --> 00:02:30.599
<v Speaker 3>running back Mike Mitchell committed to the Wildcats along with

44
00:02:31.599 --> 00:02:37.199
<v Speaker 3>former Wisconsin quarterback Brandon Locke. You have a former Montana edge,

45
00:02:37.240 --> 00:02:40.000
<v Speaker 3>Riley Wilson. I think it is probably one of the

46
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:44.479
<v Speaker 3>biggest gets for the Wildcats in this transfer portal. He's

47
00:02:44.479 --> 00:02:49.800
<v Speaker 3>getting he's getting rave reviews. I meant reviews that you

48
00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:51.400
<v Speaker 3>wouldn't think that he'd be getting.

49
00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:56.240
<v Speaker 4>Especially considering Division two. Right, No, I'm talking about the class.

50
00:02:56.280 --> 00:02:58.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, right, yeah, I mean they're they're twenty third right

51
00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:01.520
<v Speaker 3>now in the transfer portal rankings overall right, yeah, all

52
00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:03.960
<v Speaker 3>transfer portal. I don't know where they are just overall

53
00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:07.400
<v Speaker 3>recruiting wise, but transfer portal wise their number twenty three,

54
00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:10.680
<v Speaker 3>which isn't that bad consider no, considering the situation.

55
00:03:13.479 --> 00:03:15.319
<v Speaker 4>The way you put it, it is like you go to restaurants,

56
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:20.879
<v Speaker 4>was it any good? Well, it wasn't bad. It was

57
00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:23.120
<v Speaker 4>it wasn't bad. It was just kind of it was food.

58
00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:25.560
<v Speaker 4>It was food. It was food. We finished. It was

59
00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:27.560
<v Speaker 4>good food that bade the bill. You want to call

60
00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:27.759
<v Speaker 4>it that.

61
00:03:28.319 --> 00:03:31.879
<v Speaker 3>Uh So one of the losses for the Wildcats, cornerback

62
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:35.840
<v Speaker 3>Marquees Grows Killer Brew entered the portal, but at the

63
00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:39.120
<v Speaker 3>same time they got their defense, one of their defensive

64
00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:41.520
<v Speaker 3>captain's back trade and Stokes coming back to Arizona for

65
00:03:41.520 --> 00:03:42.599
<v Speaker 3>a sixth season.

66
00:03:43.639 --> 00:03:45.199
<v Speaker 4>That's a good sign. That's a good sign.

67
00:03:45.240 --> 00:03:45.439
<v Speaker 5>You know.

68
00:03:45.599 --> 00:03:48.719
<v Speaker 2>Like I said, I've been critical to a degree of

69
00:03:48.759 --> 00:03:51.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, so many people leaving and to me there

70
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:53.800
<v Speaker 2>was a disconnect. But some of the people are coming back,

71
00:03:53.800 --> 00:03:56.840
<v Speaker 2>which means that which is a good thing. Something's there, Yeah,

72
00:03:56.879 --> 00:03:57.759
<v Speaker 2>some something there.

73
00:03:57.800 --> 00:04:01.439
<v Speaker 3>They see something that maybe this and that that there's

74
00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:02.800
<v Speaker 3>potential behind the scenes.

75
00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:04.039
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, you.

76
00:04:04.039 --> 00:04:07.520

80
00:04:13.199 --> 00:04:16.839
<v Speaker 2>your career really hasn't started. But the one thing I've learned,

81
00:04:17.360 --> 00:04:21.920
<v Speaker 2>or among many, uh, there's always stories behind the story, right,

82
00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:23.480
<v Speaker 2>There's always more to the story.

83
00:04:23.519 --> 00:04:25.480
<v Speaker 3>And you mean just being the passionate fan I was,

84
00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:29.120
<v Speaker 3>there was always more to h I mean even even

85
00:04:29.879 --> 00:04:33.560
<v Speaker 3>even outside of Arizona. You know, you have uh Indiana

86
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:36.800
<v Speaker 3>who didn't play Umar Bollo I think yesterday, right, and

87
00:04:37.000 --> 00:04:40.920
<v Speaker 3>you saw the stories and other situations and just did

88
00:04:40.920 --> 00:04:41.439
<v Speaker 3>you you.

89
00:04:41.439 --> 00:04:43.040
<v Speaker 4>Know, but you don't know do you have this do

90
00:04:43.079 --> 00:04:45.519
<v Speaker 4>you have uh? Do you have the story story with that?

91
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:47.120
<v Speaker 4>Because I saw the story.

92
00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:51.079
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if I saw on Facebook or on Twitter,

93
00:04:51.319 --> 00:04:52.439
<v Speaker 2>which is true.

94
00:04:52.920 --> 00:04:56.399
<v Speaker 3>So I never I never saw something from a source

95
00:04:56.439 --> 00:05:00.319
<v Speaker 3>that I necessarily trusted. But there is a picture I

96
00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:02.680
<v Speaker 3>saw that of Umarballo out there. I don't know when

97
00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:06.040
<v Speaker 3>it was taken. I didn't see anything, and you don't

98
00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:09.120
<v Speaker 3>have to just saying like, yes, this is exactly what happened.

99
00:05:09.160 --> 00:05:11.279
<v Speaker 3>It was just a picture of him.

100
00:05:11.480 --> 00:05:14.120
<v Speaker 4>Okay, so we'll go listen. I'll address that because I

101
00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:16.399
<v Speaker 4>just google this, So go ahead and continue.

102
00:05:16.920 --> 00:05:21.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, So, I mean the Arizona Athletics continuing women's basketball

108
00:05:38.959 --> 00:05:41.759
<v Speaker 3>win in twenty twenty four, but another opportunity to comes

109
00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:45.360
<v Speaker 3>tonight when the men's team plays TCU at six o'clock,

110
00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:46.920

111
00:05:47.079 --> 00:05:50.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, So just to give an update, Ballo didn't play yesterday.

112
00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:52.000
<v Speaker 2>I think it was yesterday. Yeah.

113
00:05:52.040 --> 00:05:53.759
<v Speaker 4>There have been some rumors that he was.

114
00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:58.800
<v Speaker 2>Out the night before or whatever and whatever, and that

115
00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:01.800
<v Speaker 2>he had been injured either or right, either or so.

116
00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:05.879
<v Speaker 2>I just googled the story from the Indianapolis Star and

117
00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:10.800
<v Speaker 2>the coach Coach Woodson, this was his quote. I'm not

118
00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:13.839
<v Speaker 2>going to address that, but I didn't have a lot

119
00:06:13.879 --> 00:06:16.360
<v Speaker 2>of time lead time, but that doesn't matter. And you

120
00:06:16.399 --> 00:06:19.040
<v Speaker 2>guys know, uh that they're in you know, they have

121
00:06:19.120 --> 00:06:21.360
<v Speaker 2>got to play and he didn't play tonight, and you

122
00:06:21.399 --> 00:06:25.000
<v Speaker 2>know we'll sit down tomorrow and address his situation and

123
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:26.680
<v Speaker 2>get ready for Rutgers.

124
00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:29.160
<v Speaker 4>Which needs me to believe there's something.

125
00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:33.399
<v Speaker 2>Something more to the story, right, Yeah, so you know, uh,

126
00:06:33.639 --> 00:06:36.120
<v Speaker 2>and people here are saying, well, they should have Ballow here,

127
00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:38.399
<v Speaker 2>you know the he I don't know if that I

128
00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:39.439
<v Speaker 2>would have solved the problems here.

129
00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:42.240
<v Speaker 3>You still you still need Caleb Love to shoot better,

130
00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:45.480
<v Speaker 3>need from kJ Lewis, even Carter Bryant.

131
00:06:45.600 --> 00:06:48.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm curious when you did your story on Caleb,

132
00:06:49.600 --> 00:06:50.639
<v Speaker 2>did you quote anybody?

133
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:52.600
<v Speaker 4>Because I asked him. I asked him twice.

134
00:06:52.720 --> 00:06:55.519
<v Speaker 3>I believe I quoted Tommy because I asked him from

135
00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:59.319
<v Speaker 3>the from the transcripts, Yeah, from the I can't think

136
00:06:59.319 --> 00:07:03.319
<v Speaker 3>of the name, the press conference, Yeah, because I asked him.

137
00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:04.959
<v Speaker 4>My sister, is that's this?

138
00:07:05.000 --> 00:07:06.639
<v Speaker 2>Because I've asked the question you were with me a

139
00:07:06.639 --> 00:07:09.560
<v Speaker 2>few times as as he goes, the team goes, and

140
00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:11.480
<v Speaker 2>he said kind of maybe.

141
00:07:11.759 --> 00:07:11.959
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

142
00:07:12.040 --> 00:07:16.120
<v Speaker 3>So the whole I use just regarding the tension that

143
00:07:16.199 --> 00:07:19.279
<v Speaker 3>love does get regardless of if he's playing well or not.

144
00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:21.800
<v Speaker 3>He has a lot of he has a lot of gravity,

145
00:07:21.920 --> 00:07:23.360
<v Speaker 3>He has a lot of eyes on him, a lot

146
00:07:23.399 --> 00:07:25.160
<v Speaker 3>of eyes, a lot of things go towards him, so

147
00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:27.959
<v Speaker 3>he can create he needs to create space for other sure.

148
00:07:28.160 --> 00:07:30.319
<v Speaker 2>So that was neither yes or no because I asked

149
00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:33.519
<v Speaker 2>that question, and I asked that to a few people

150
00:07:33.639 --> 00:07:36.040
<v Speaker 2>and they said some said yes, some says no.

151
00:07:36.519 --> 00:07:40.240
<v Speaker 4>He said nothing, Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, And I think

152
00:07:40.279 --> 00:07:43.680
<v Speaker 4>that's how not saying this is good or bad.

153
00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:47.120
<v Speaker 3>This is just how Tommy does answer most questions, right.

154
00:07:47.199 --> 00:07:51.439
<v Speaker 4>He theres a lot out there for interpretation. Correct. He

155
00:07:51.480 --> 00:07:54.399
<v Speaker 4>answers the question without answering the question. Yeah. I think

156
00:07:54.439 --> 00:07:56.680
<v Speaker 4>that's what most coaches do for the short part.

157
00:07:57.040 --> 00:07:59.040
<v Speaker 3>You have your exceptions like Mike Cronin who gives us

158
00:07:59.040 --> 00:08:01.759
<v Speaker 3>a straightforward answers most of the time, or it doesn't

159
00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:05.240
<v Speaker 3>give you answers at all. So it's just that's the

160
00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:08.199
<v Speaker 3>way those those coaches operate in the college.

161
00:08:08.600 --> 00:08:09.439
<v Speaker 4>They need their job.

162
00:08:10.600 --> 00:08:14.040
<v Speaker 3>So to the NBA some injury updates and here and there,

163
00:08:14.720 --> 00:08:18.720
<v Speaker 3>Hawks forward Larry Nancy Junior will undergo surgery for a

164
00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:21.839
<v Speaker 3>broken bone in his right hand. His time for a

165
00:08:21.879 --> 00:08:25.560
<v Speaker 3>return is unavailable right now. They're steering to evaluate after

166
00:08:25.680 --> 00:08:31.040
<v Speaker 3>the procedure on his hand. Ah So, and then Tyler

167
00:08:31.079 --> 00:08:37.120
<v Speaker 3>Hero and man Thoms Thompson, they're both ejected in the

168
00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:37.919
<v Speaker 3>final minutes of the.

169
00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:40.080
<v Speaker 4>Heat and Rockets game. That was a fight. It was

170
00:08:40.120 --> 00:08:43.120
<v Speaker 4>a fight for him in society. A fight. Yeah.

171
00:08:44.639 --> 00:08:48.879
<v Speaker 3>Thompson threw down Hero after Hero was not pleased with

172
00:08:48.879 --> 00:08:51.440
<v Speaker 3>the way he was being guarded. Teams got into it,

173
00:08:51.519 --> 00:08:54.159
<v Speaker 3>coaches got into I think I saw some some fans

174
00:08:54.159 --> 00:08:56.480
<v Speaker 3>throw some stuff onto the court. A little bit of

175
00:08:56.519 --> 00:08:58.679
<v Speaker 3>an ugly scene, but not not too ugly.

176
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:02.919
<v Speaker 4>Did you see the screen with Arkansas the number fifty five?

177
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:03.480
<v Speaker 4>I did not.

178
00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:06.080
<v Speaker 2>He stepped If you google it, it's a big dude,

179
00:09:06.080 --> 00:09:06.840
<v Speaker 2>a big alignment.

180
00:09:06.840 --> 00:09:08.159
<v Speaker 4>I think it was stepped on.

181
00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:10.840
<v Speaker 2>The player of the Texas Tech stepped on his foot

182
00:09:10.840 --> 00:09:13.759
<v Speaker 2>like you know, like like severe that the purposely stomped

183
00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:16.759
<v Speaker 2>on it and is like holy crap. Now, now everybody's

184
00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:19.759
<v Speaker 2>on you know, Facebook or Twitter or whatever social saying

185
00:09:19.759 --> 00:09:21.360
<v Speaker 2>that that dude should never play again.

186
00:09:21.679 --> 00:09:24.360
<v Speaker 4>If you google it real quick, you'll.

187
00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:27.440
<v Speaker 2>See it very deliberate, very and I tried to see

188
00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:29.559
<v Speaker 2>yesterday what was going to come of it, and nothing

189
00:09:29.720 --> 00:09:31.080
<v Speaker 2>as of yesterday.

190
00:09:31.320 --> 00:09:34.720
<v Speaker 3>Because that was He did issue an apology after the

191
00:09:34.840 --> 00:09:40.159
<v Speaker 3>video went viral. Just the defensive back accused him of

192
00:09:40.200 --> 00:09:44.080
<v Speaker 3>dirty but it was pretty severe. Yeah, I'm surprised it

193
00:09:44.080 --> 00:09:47.120
<v Speaker 3>doesn't happen more often. Yeah, I think there's a little bit.

194
00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:52.240
<v Speaker 3>There's stuff that that I'm just I'm watching it now. Wow,

195
00:09:52.360 --> 00:09:54.039
<v Speaker 3>I'm surprised that it's still there.

196
00:09:54.279 --> 00:09:54.519
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

197
00:09:54.519 --> 00:09:55.159
<v Speaker 4>Wow.

198
00:09:56.279 --> 00:09:58.879
<v Speaker 3>I think there's stuff that always goes on but the

199
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:02.000
<v Speaker 3>camera doesn't catch it. Just happened to catch it this time.

200
00:10:02.639 --> 00:10:05.679
<v Speaker 3>Not saying that it's it's just a FIA ball or anything, but.

201
00:10:06.320 --> 00:10:09.759
<v Speaker 4>So what do you say? He just said, sorry, Yeah,

202
00:10:09.799 --> 00:10:10.320
<v Speaker 4>pretty much.

203
00:10:11.320 --> 00:10:16.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, regrets of stuff like that won't it won't happen again.

204
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:16.960
<v Speaker 4>We'll be back.

205
00:10:17.039 --> 00:10:20.240
<v Speaker 2>I hadn't seen something like that, well, outside of a

206
00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:23.759
<v Speaker 2>Christian lightner stomping on a chest or or or we

207
00:10:23.799 --> 00:10:27.240
<v Speaker 2>had we had Chase Buttinger, who the guy stepped on

208
00:10:27.320 --> 00:10:27.679
<v Speaker 2>his face.

209
00:10:27.720 --> 00:10:29.480
<v Speaker 3>You know what I'm saying. You don't see that very often.

210
00:10:29.720 --> 00:10:31.840
<v Speaker 3>If at all I actually saw. I think I might

211
00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:33.679
<v Speaker 3>have been this year. Last year, there was a I

212
00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:35.879
<v Speaker 3>think in one of the Bowl games, one of the

213
00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:41.200
<v Speaker 3>smaller tier Bowl games, defensive lineman goes down to the

214
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:45.120
<v Speaker 3>ground after a play and the opposing player just stomps

215
00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:46.720
<v Speaker 3>on his helmet repeatedly.

216
00:10:48.120 --> 00:10:50.559
<v Speaker 4>I don't remember anything happening from that, but his head

217
00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:53.240
<v Speaker 4>was still in the helmet. Yeah, okay, well, good thing. Yeah.

218
00:10:53.480 --> 00:10:55.519
<v Speaker 3>I think he was having some neck issues with the

219
00:10:55.519 --> 00:10:57.519
<v Speaker 3>when medical came, but he was I think he was

220
00:10:57.559 --> 00:10:59.080
<v Speaker 3>able to walk off in his own power.

221
00:10:59.120 --> 00:10:59.679
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, I haven't.

222
00:10:59.720 --> 00:11:02.200
<v Speaker 3>I never heard anything from it, so I'm guessing called

223
00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:05.600
<v Speaker 3>as well. In the end, So the Lakers traded D'Angelo

224
00:11:05.639 --> 00:11:08.759
<v Speaker 3>Russell to the Nets in a four player deal. The

225
00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:11.519
<v Speaker 3>some of the notable players that the Lakers do get

226
00:11:11.559 --> 00:11:14.600
<v Speaker 3>are during Finney Smith, who was on that h some

227
00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:18.960
<v Speaker 3>of those runs with the with the Mavericks with Luca

228
00:11:19.200 --> 00:11:20.120
<v Speaker 3>and Shane Milton.

229
00:11:20.799 --> 00:11:26.279
<v Speaker 4>But one of the.

230
00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:25.879
<v Speaker 3>Key pieces, if you want to call it that for

231
00:11:25.960 --> 00:11:27.639
<v Speaker 3>the Lakers being sent away.

232
00:11:27.639 --> 00:11:30.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah, Russell, yeah, yeah, just to string because he

233
00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:32.519
<v Speaker 2>kept them in games and it was a key factor. No,

234
00:11:32.679 --> 00:11:34.960
<v Speaker 2>I let me ask you, because we talked about the NBA.

235
00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:37.519
<v Speaker 2>What do you think the deal is that people are watching?

236
00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:39.559
<v Speaker 2>Let me tell you, I'm not one of those guys

237
00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:41.559
<v Speaker 2>because they can't sell me on it anyway, so I

238
00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:42.440
<v Speaker 2>don't watch anyway.

239
00:11:42.799 --> 00:11:44.120
<v Speaker 3>So what do you think they're going? I think it's

240
00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:47.120
<v Speaker 3>a little bit of a repetitive. Most teams play alike.

241
00:11:47.279 --> 00:11:52.279
<v Speaker 3>There's there's not Most teams are offensively focused first to

242
00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:56.039
<v Speaker 3>get to one hundred usually, So it's boring a little.

243
00:11:55.840 --> 00:11:59.120
<v Speaker 4>Bit unless you unless you have a team like I do.

244
00:11:59.240 --> 00:12:02.320
<v Speaker 4>I watched Spurs and how often do you watch them

245
00:12:02.559 --> 00:12:03.080
<v Speaker 4>as of lately?

246
00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:05.240
<v Speaker 3>I've been watching them pretty often. Yeah, they're gonna be

247
00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:07.639
<v Speaker 3>pretty good. I think they are. They had a close

248
00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:10.200
<v Speaker 3>lost to Minnesota last night. They had a close loss

249
00:12:10.279 --> 00:12:13.320
<v Speaker 3>Christmas Day to the Knicks. If they made a couple

250
00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:16.200
<v Speaker 3>more plays there, they're probably one more young player away.

251
00:12:17.039 --> 00:12:18.279
<v Speaker 4>See what they can do in the draft.

252
00:12:18.360 --> 00:12:20.559
<v Speaker 2>I wonder if if a lot of them aren't watching

253
00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:24.679
<v Speaker 2>because the names aren't recognizable much not.

254
00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:25.559
<v Speaker 4>Right now, you know what I'm saying.

255
00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:29.679
<v Speaker 3>The names you have, the classic names like Lebron James,

256
00:12:29.720 --> 00:12:34.320
<v Speaker 3>Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant Ye, they're just being in the

257
00:12:34.320 --> 00:12:35.039
<v Speaker 3>transition period.

258
00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:36.320
<v Speaker 4>Right now they are being phased out.

259
00:12:36.399 --> 00:12:38.279
<v Speaker 3>Yes they're still playing, they're still playing at a high level,

260
00:12:38.720 --> 00:12:39.679
<v Speaker 3>but their time is soon.

261
00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:40.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

262
00:12:40.120 --> 00:12:42.759
<v Speaker 2>But even the college at the college level, you you

263
00:12:42.840 --> 00:12:43.600
<v Speaker 2>know college.

264
00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:45.320
<v Speaker 4>One of the things about especial about college.

265
00:12:45.320 --> 00:12:47.399
<v Speaker 2>You're cheer for the team, right, You're chruer for the school,

266
00:12:47.679 --> 00:12:49.519
<v Speaker 2>and they happen to have some pretty good players.

267
00:12:49.759 --> 00:12:51.279
<v Speaker 4>But some of the players aren't.

268
00:12:51.080 --> 00:12:55.000
<v Speaker 2>Making the NBA and those names aren't recognizable, and the

269
00:12:55.039 --> 00:12:57.279
<v Speaker 2>Euros are coming in and who's that dude?

270
00:12:57.320 --> 00:12:57.639
<v Speaker 4>You know?

271
00:12:57.840 --> 00:12:59.759
<v Speaker 3>Even some of some of the guys you see plays

272
00:12:59.759 --> 00:13:02.279
<v Speaker 3>as where did he play? Oh, I must have not

273
00:13:02.440 --> 00:13:05.759
<v Speaker 3>never saw him player. We'll see, we'll see what happens.

274
00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:08.279
<v Speaker 3>So just gonna got a couple of minutes here on

275
00:13:08.840 --> 00:13:12.200
<v Speaker 3>ros try to speed through what I have. The Christmas

276
00:13:12.279 --> 00:13:16.480
<v Speaker 3>Day games, those were pretty good. Timberwolves beat the Mavericks

277
00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:20.399
<v Speaker 3>at in Dallas seventy six, Yers beat the Celtics in Boston.

278
00:13:21.000 --> 00:13:24.120
<v Speaker 3>Lakers beat the Warriors and at Golden State that was

279
00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:26.639
<v Speaker 3>that was a really good game. And then the Suns

280
00:13:26.799 --> 00:13:29.559
<v Speaker 3>beat the Nuggets, and I think it's surprise when they

281
00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:32.399
<v Speaker 3>didn't play booker. They go and beat the Nuggets after

282
00:13:32.399 --> 00:13:34.799
<v Speaker 3>getting demolished by them like two days earlier.

283
00:13:35.399 --> 00:13:38.720
<v Speaker 4>So Sons are on a right track.

284
00:13:39.080 --> 00:13:42.519
<v Speaker 3>If you want to say that Yukon's women's basketball coach,

285
00:13:42.960 --> 00:13:48.559
<v Speaker 3>you know Arima tied Tara Vanderveer's record for most appearances

286
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:53.080
<v Speaker 3>with one school in the AP Top twenty five x FS.

287
00:13:53.080 --> 00:13:55.840
<v Speaker 3>Ex Florida State players are suing the head basketball which

288
00:13:57.360 --> 00:14:00.639
<v Speaker 3>Leonard Hamilton, over failed and il payments. They were gonna

289
00:14:00.679 --> 00:14:04.000
<v Speaker 3>they were supposed to boycott a game on February seventh,

290
00:14:04.240 --> 00:14:09.000
<v Speaker 3>seventeenth against Duke. They didn't because they were promised. Nothing

291
00:14:09.039 --> 00:14:13.799
<v Speaker 3>came from it. What was that February seventeenth of last year,

292
00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:15.240
<v Speaker 3>last year, last last season.

293
00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:16.039
<v Speaker 4>I believe.

294
00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:21.519
<v Speaker 3>Unfortunate news sports broadcaster Greg Gumbele did die of cancer

295
00:14:21.559 --> 00:14:22.639
<v Speaker 3>at the age of seventy eight.

296
00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:23.639
<v Speaker 4>Over the break.

297
00:14:26.080 --> 00:14:29.840
<v Speaker 3>Jim Larrett, the MIMMI head coach for I can't say

298
00:14:29.840 --> 00:14:34.399
<v Speaker 3>that last he did step down after fourteen seasons. Another

299
00:14:34.440 --> 00:14:38.360
<v Speaker 3>one of those in another one can't not not that

300
00:14:38.399 --> 00:14:40.000
<v Speaker 3>they can't hack it by there, they just don't want

301
00:14:40.039 --> 00:14:43.759
<v Speaker 3>to deal with it. So the NFL Rex Ryan Ron

302
00:14:43.799 --> 00:14:47.080
<v Speaker 3>Rivera expected to interview for the Jets head coach Rex

303
00:14:47.159 --> 00:14:49.679
<v Speaker 3>Ryan and John Rivera.

431
00:20:57.960 --> 00:21:00.559
<v Speaker 2>So you and I talked, I don't know August or

432
00:21:00.599 --> 00:21:02.920
<v Speaker 2>whatever it was in doing a preview for the BIS

433
00:21:02.920 --> 00:21:05.920
<v Speaker 2>two sons, but did did the event because there was

434
00:21:05.960 --> 00:21:07.960
<v Speaker 2>a lot of a lot of hype with it.

435
00:21:08.319 --> 00:21:09.720
<v Speaker 4>Did it meet the hype?

436
00:21:11.440 --> 00:21:13.400
<v Speaker 5>I think so. I mean, you tell me, Steve, I

437
00:21:13.480 --> 00:21:16.200
<v Speaker 5>think it did. I mean, based off of the feedback

438
00:21:16.240 --> 00:21:19.240
<v Speaker 5>I've had so far and the way you know, we've

439
00:21:19.400 --> 00:21:22.359
<v Speaker 5>that it took off, you know, across the country as

440
00:21:22.359 --> 00:21:27.480
<v Speaker 5>far as going viral and the audience people that actually

441
00:21:27.559 --> 00:21:30.119
<v Speaker 5>came out to the game, it seemed like it was

442
00:21:30.359 --> 00:21:32.079
<v Speaker 5>everything that we expected in more.

443
00:21:32.359 --> 00:21:32.559
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

444
00:21:32.920 --> 00:21:38.920
<v Speaker 2>In fact, if you watch it on TV, he was

445
00:21:39.119 --> 00:21:42.119
<v Speaker 2>very visible, not just a little a lot, and it

446
00:21:42.200 --> 00:21:45.680
<v Speaker 2>was a game with Snoop because he was visible all

447
00:21:45.720 --> 00:21:46.079
<v Speaker 2>the time.

448
00:21:47.680 --> 00:21:49.519
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, And I think that's you know, we kind of

449
00:21:49.559 --> 00:21:52.759
<v Speaker 5>expected that would be the way it would go. After

450
00:21:52.799 --> 00:21:56.000
<v Speaker 5>seeing the way he presented himself and interacted at the Olympics.

451
00:21:56.079 --> 00:21:58.720
<v Speaker 5>He knew that he's going to be really visible and

452
00:21:58.759 --> 00:22:02.920
<v Speaker 5>really interested and getting to know people and saying hello

453
00:22:03.039 --> 00:22:05.359
<v Speaker 5>and taking pictures and being a part of the festivities.

454
00:22:05.680 --> 00:22:05.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

455
00:22:06.000 --> 00:22:09.759
<v Speaker 2>No, who better than him, right, obviously, a guy who

456
00:22:09.799 --> 00:22:12.519
<v Speaker 2>knows how to do the marketing of himself and the

457
00:22:12.559 --> 00:22:16.640
<v Speaker 2>game itself. Great weather, I mean, you could not have

458
00:22:16.680 --> 00:22:17.559
<v Speaker 2>had it any better.

459
00:22:17.559 --> 00:22:21.680
<v Speaker 5>With the weather, Oh my gosh, the weather was was incredible.

460
00:22:21.759 --> 00:22:24.400
<v Speaker 5>It was such a beautiful day, the perfect day for football.

461
00:22:24.960 --> 00:22:27.279
<v Speaker 5>If only the game had been a little closer, I

462
00:22:27.279 --> 00:22:29.759
<v Speaker 5>think that would have been the only thing I would

463
00:22:29.799 --> 00:22:34.319
<v Speaker 5>have changed. But overall, it was a terrific success for everybody.

464
00:22:34.359 --> 00:22:36.720
<v Speaker 5>And you know, just across the board, I've just been

465
00:22:36.720 --> 00:22:40.160
<v Speaker 5>getting so much great feedback sure about it. People really

466
00:22:40.240 --> 00:22:42.680
<v Speaker 5>enjoyed it, really thought it. You know, we've kind of

467
00:22:42.680 --> 00:22:45.119
<v Speaker 5>taken this to the next level and had a really

468
00:22:45.240 --> 00:22:45.920
<v Speaker 5>enjoyable time.

469
00:22:46.039 --> 00:22:48.200
<v Speaker 2>So the funny thing is, as you talk about the game,

470
00:22:48.720 --> 00:22:51.440
<v Speaker 2>you can't have everything, Kim. Every game you've had has

471
00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:54.279
<v Speaker 2>been like over time or close or that's possession.

472
00:22:54.599 --> 00:22:55.920
<v Speaker 4>Sometimes you can't have it all.

473
00:22:57.319 --> 00:22:59.359
<v Speaker 5>I know. But you know, I had looked at both

474
00:22:59.359 --> 00:23:01.480
<v Speaker 5>of these teams for a long time ahead of us

475
00:23:01.480 --> 00:23:04.799
<v Speaker 5>picking them, and I just know that, you know, Colorado State,

476
00:23:04.880 --> 00:23:07.480
<v Speaker 5>I think had some illness right before the game with

477
00:23:07.599 --> 00:23:10.039
<v Speaker 5>some of their key players. They've lost some folks into

478
00:23:10.079 --> 00:23:13.160
<v Speaker 5>the transfer portal. I think that really affected them. You know,

479
00:23:13.759 --> 00:23:16.000
<v Speaker 5>I've known Jane Norvel for a while now, since he

480
00:23:16.079 --> 00:23:18.319
<v Speaker 5>was here in twenty eighteen, and you know, he came

481
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:20.200
<v Speaker 5>up to me after the game. He's like, Oh, Kim,

482
00:23:20.240 --> 00:23:22.519
<v Speaker 5>I'm just so sorry we didn't give you a better game,

483
00:23:22.559 --> 00:23:25.319
<v Speaker 5>and he just felt terrible. I just I just think that,

484
00:23:25.920 --> 00:23:27.920
<v Speaker 5>you know, it wasn't their day. I think kind of

485
00:23:27.960 --> 00:23:32.119
<v Speaker 5>circumstances or what they were. But Miami came out and

486
00:23:32.880 --> 00:23:37.400
<v Speaker 5>dominated that game. They were terrific. It was really fun

487
00:23:37.440 --> 00:23:38.839
<v Speaker 5>to watch them be so successful.

488
00:23:39.240 --> 00:23:41.680
<v Speaker 2>And the first time Jay was here a few years

489
00:23:41.680 --> 00:23:44.400
<v Speaker 2>back with Nevada, it was very impressed. He's a very

490
00:23:44.400 --> 00:23:47.480
<v Speaker 2>good coach, you can tell you is very thoughtful, very good.

491
00:23:47.519 --> 00:23:49.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure he'll be there very long because you know,

492
00:23:49.680 --> 00:23:51.119
<v Speaker 2>I think someone's going to scoop him up.

493
00:23:52.400 --> 00:23:54.920
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. You know, he's always sort of in those conversations

494
00:23:54.960 --> 00:23:57.079
<v Speaker 5>as an up and comer, someone that's going to be

495
00:23:57.160 --> 00:24:00.279
<v Speaker 5>taken up to, you know, a really good Division one,

496
00:24:00.880 --> 00:24:07.119
<v Speaker 5>Power five, you know team. I think that he's very desirable.

497
00:24:07.119 --> 00:24:10.240
<v Speaker 5>He's a great coach, he puts together great staff. The

498
00:24:10.319 --> 00:24:12.960
<v Speaker 5>players really really like him, and you know, he's just

499
00:24:13.079 --> 00:24:15.680
<v Speaker 5>he's a really nice guy all around. So I wish

500
00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:17.720
<v Speaker 5>him all the success, but you know, I think it'd

501
00:24:17.720 --> 00:24:18.799
<v Speaker 5>be at Colorado State for a while.

502
00:24:19.400 --> 00:24:22.119
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so tell me what gim me and maybe your

503
00:24:22.200 --> 00:24:26.480
<v Speaker 2>top two things that you really really liked or three

504
00:24:26.519 --> 00:24:26.920
<v Speaker 2>if you want.

505
00:24:29.319 --> 00:24:32.240
<v Speaker 5>Well, you know, we managed to get Snoop out to

506
00:24:32.359 --> 00:24:35.200
<v Speaker 5>the Gin and Juice House for the tailgate, which was

507
00:24:35.960 --> 00:24:40.160
<v Speaker 5>sort of a you know, lesson insecurity for me, but

508
00:24:40.200 --> 00:24:43.000
<v Speaker 5>we got him out there safely, and then more importantly

509
00:24:43.000 --> 00:24:46.119
<v Speaker 5>got him out of there safely and which was fun

510
00:24:46.160 --> 00:24:47.839
<v Speaker 5>for all the folks out at the tailgate to get

511
00:24:47.880 --> 00:24:50.920
<v Speaker 5>to see him, and he was interacting with the crowd,

512
00:24:51.359 --> 00:24:56.720
<v Speaker 5>which is really fantastic. My second favorite part I just

513
00:24:56.839 --> 00:25:01.240
<v Speaker 5>loved when you know, at halftime Snoop was leading the bands. Yeah,

514
00:25:01.279 --> 00:25:03.720
<v Speaker 5>and you know those bands, you have to give them

515
00:25:03.759 --> 00:25:06.200
<v Speaker 5>so much credit. We picked them on December eight, they

516
00:25:06.240 --> 00:25:09.119
<v Speaker 5>got the music a week later, and then like ten

517
00:25:09.200 --> 00:25:11.759
<v Speaker 5>days later they were here at the ball playing that

518
00:25:12.440 --> 00:25:15.839
<v Speaker 5>medley together and had Stoop up there conducting them. So

519
00:25:15.920 --> 00:25:19.000
<v Speaker 5>that was really fun. And then you know, we had

520
00:25:19.039 --> 00:25:22.039
<v Speaker 5>this idea about Sneak driving and and Paula onto the

521
00:25:22.039 --> 00:25:25.400
<v Speaker 5>field to the sands of the trophy presentation and to

522
00:25:25.480 --> 00:25:29.680
<v Speaker 5>actually see that come to Fruition and see how excited

523
00:25:29.680 --> 00:25:32.279
<v Speaker 5>people were to see him in that car, get the

524
00:25:32.279 --> 00:25:36.079
<v Speaker 5>photos of the coach afterwards, it was really terrific.

525
00:25:36.160 --> 00:25:36.680
<v Speaker 4>It was great.

526
00:25:36.880 --> 00:25:39.400
<v Speaker 5>Those are just my favorite Snoop moments. There are terrific

527
00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:42.720
<v Speaker 5>you know, football moments along the way too, and it

528
00:25:42.799 --> 00:25:45.000
<v Speaker 5>was just a really, a really great event.

529
00:25:45.240 --> 00:25:47.359
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and it was well, you're going to see photos

530
00:25:47.400 --> 00:25:49.759
<v Speaker 2>from everybody in this town that you know, on either

531
00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:52.119
<v Speaker 2>Facebook or Twitter or whatever, because everybody wanted to have

532
00:25:52.160 --> 00:25:56.200
<v Speaker 2>a picture with him or of him, and he kind

533
00:25:56.200 --> 00:25:58.440
<v Speaker 2>of put a signature on Tucson from a lot of

534
00:25:58.519 --> 00:25:59.240
<v Speaker 2>different ways.

535
00:26:01.039 --> 00:26:02.839
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. I think so too. And you know, I had

536
00:26:02.839 --> 00:26:05.759
<v Speaker 5>some I got to spend some you know, time one

537
00:26:05.799 --> 00:26:08.799
<v Speaker 5>on one with Snoop, and he told me that he

538
00:26:08.880 --> 00:26:11.200
<v Speaker 5>felt like this was home, like his home away from home.

539
00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:15.920
<v Speaker 5>He loved the atmosphere, he loved the people, he loved

540
00:26:15.960 --> 00:26:19.200
<v Speaker 5>are the way we embraced his youth football and special stars.

541
00:26:19.799 --> 00:26:23.119
<v Speaker 5>He just really felt like this was such a great

542
00:26:23.160 --> 00:26:25.319
<v Speaker 5>place to be and he told me he looks forward

543
00:26:25.359 --> 00:26:28.319
<v Speaker 5>to coming back here a year after year. He's he

544
00:26:28.480 --> 00:26:31.880
<v Speaker 5>really enjoyed himself. And that's you know, that's one of

545
00:26:31.960 --> 00:26:34.640
<v Speaker 5>the great things. We wanted to be able to showcase

546
00:26:34.680 --> 00:26:37.480
<v Speaker 5>our community, not only the Snoop but to the entire world.

547
00:26:37.960 --> 00:26:40.880
<v Speaker 5>And you know, Snoop thought he he loved it. He

548
00:26:41.240 --> 00:26:44.759
<v Speaker 5>loved the community, he loved what we brought out of

549
00:26:44.799 --> 00:26:48.640
<v Speaker 5>our community and and he was really impressed.

550
00:26:48.839 --> 00:26:52.000
<v Speaker 2>So I even saw a photo from him going to

551
00:26:52.319 --> 00:26:55.559
<v Speaker 2>a Mexican restaurant Kathy Santa Rosa. Was he able to

552
00:26:55.599 --> 00:26:59.640
<v Speaker 2>get out more and do some stuff like that, you know,

553
00:26:59.720 --> 00:27:00.119
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

554
00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:03.240
<v Speaker 5>I didn't I didn't see that part. He was here

555
00:27:03.279 --> 00:27:05.559
<v Speaker 5>for a short period of time. But he makes the

556
00:27:05.759 --> 00:27:07.720
<v Speaker 5>I think he makes the most of every moment. So

557
00:27:08.200 --> 00:27:10.400
<v Speaker 5>it wouldn't have surprised me if he did. And you know,

558
00:27:11.119 --> 00:27:13.319
<v Speaker 5>you know, one of the other funny things, Steve that

559
00:27:13.319 --> 00:27:15.839
<v Speaker 5>that I should have said is that as we were leaving,

560
00:27:17.440 --> 00:27:20.680
<v Speaker 5>as we were leaving the tailgate, you know, Ali was

561
00:27:20.759 --> 00:27:23.200
<v Speaker 5>driving the golf cart with Snoop in it, and and

562
00:27:23.240 --> 00:27:26.599
<v Speaker 5>Snoop told him the scoot over, and he took he

563
00:27:26.680 --> 00:27:28.480
<v Speaker 5>took charge of the golf cart. And as we were

564
00:27:28.519 --> 00:27:32.039
<v Speaker 5>driving back to campus, you know, down Campbell up in

565
00:27:32.559 --> 00:27:35.039
<v Speaker 5>you know, all the way back over to the stadium,

566
00:27:35.559 --> 00:27:38.279
<v Speaker 5>Snoop was going, you know, going around tones. It was

567
00:27:38.319 --> 00:27:39.839
<v Speaker 5>like he was a twelve year old kid. He was

568
00:27:39.880 --> 00:27:42.720
<v Speaker 5>having so much fun, high five and people along the way.

569
00:27:43.000 --> 00:27:46.039
<v Speaker 5>He really enjoyed himself. And it wouldn't it wouldn't surprise

570
00:27:46.079 --> 00:27:48.039
<v Speaker 5>me if he made some extra trips around town.

571
00:27:48.880 --> 00:27:51.559
<v Speaker 2>You know, well that I think your point of that

572
00:27:51.880 --> 00:27:53.759
<v Speaker 2>is exactly what he did kind of in the Olympics

573
00:27:53.799 --> 00:27:57.079
<v Speaker 2>where he was so visible and you know, who doesn't

574
00:27:57.160 --> 00:28:00.200
<v Speaker 2>like him, right, because he's very likable. And that's what

575
00:28:00.400 --> 00:28:05.039
<v Speaker 2>helped this game. You know, see forty thousand people or

576
00:28:05.079 --> 00:28:07.240
<v Speaker 2>whatever the number was come in and see because they

577
00:28:07.279 --> 00:28:13.160
<v Speaker 2>were a curious one and then likable too, yeah for sure.

578
00:28:12.960 --> 00:28:15.000
<v Speaker 5>And they didn't you know, there was a lot of

579
00:28:15.039 --> 00:28:17.160
<v Speaker 5>behind the scenes things that happened to like you know,

580
00:28:17.160 --> 00:28:19.599
<v Speaker 5>I Snup went and visited surprised each team in their

581
00:28:19.599 --> 00:28:22.680
<v Speaker 5>locker room. When they arrived, he was there waiting for them.

582
00:28:23.039 --> 00:28:26.799
<v Speaker 5>They walked in and they got here coach Snoop give

583
00:28:26.880 --> 00:28:29.160
<v Speaker 5>them a pep talk, you know, and take a photo

584
00:28:29.200 --> 00:28:32.000
<v Speaker 5>of Snoop And he got to surprise both teams, which

585
00:28:32.039 --> 00:28:34.960
<v Speaker 5>is really fantastic for the teams. And then of course

586
00:28:35.039 --> 00:28:39.519
<v Speaker 5>Miami afterwards, you know, got the death row change that changed.

587
00:28:39.640 --> 00:28:42.720
<v Speaker 5>That is a big deal for you know, a lot

588
00:28:42.720 --> 00:28:44.200
<v Speaker 5>of folks. I mean, not a lot of people have

589
00:28:44.319 --> 00:28:46.039
<v Speaker 5>those and so it was a really big deal and

590
00:28:46.359 --> 00:28:49.319
<v Speaker 5>they enjoyed that. You know, he he really brought his

591
00:28:49.400 --> 00:28:52.359
<v Speaker 5>own special touch to.

592
00:28:51.400 --> 00:28:54.839
<v Speaker 2>The whole event, sure, and on TV as well, because

593
00:28:54.880 --> 00:28:56.960
<v Speaker 2>he was able to get up there and be his

594
00:28:57.720 --> 00:29:00.480
<v Speaker 2>be himself on TV and give some an hour and

595
00:29:00.480 --> 00:29:00.839
<v Speaker 2>all that.

596
00:29:02.279 --> 00:29:04.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. You know, I talked to my CW folks after

597
00:29:05.039 --> 00:29:08.079
<v Speaker 5>the game and they said, oh, thank goodness we had Snoop.

598
00:29:08.119 --> 00:29:10.519
<v Speaker 5>You know, our ratings just like climbed every time that

599
00:29:10.559 --> 00:29:14.000
<v Speaker 5>he got onto the broadcast. Yeah, because you know, the

600
00:29:14.079 --> 00:29:16.839
<v Speaker 5>game wasn't really that compelling after the second half, and

601
00:29:16.960 --> 00:29:20.279
<v Speaker 5>so having Snoop up there, you know, having some really

602
00:29:20.359 --> 00:29:24.920
<v Speaker 5>fun commentary and interacting with Tom Brenneman and the broadcasters

603
00:29:25.759 --> 00:29:28.440
<v Speaker 5>really was a great boost for the CW ratings and

604
00:29:28.480 --> 00:29:31.440
<v Speaker 5>a great boost to bring visibility to people to watch

605
00:29:31.480 --> 00:29:33.240
<v Speaker 5>the game and see our great community.

606
00:29:33.599 --> 00:29:34.240
<v Speaker 4>Right right.

607
00:29:35.200 --> 00:29:37.480
<v Speaker 2>So, I know it's not a relaxing time for you,

608
00:29:37.559 --> 00:29:40.400
<v Speaker 2>but it's like done, You're done. Do you have a

609
00:29:40.720 --> 00:29:42.680
<v Speaker 2>chance to breathe? I know you can take a little

610
00:29:42.720 --> 00:29:45.440
<v Speaker 2>while before you start the next one. But what's next

611
00:29:45.440 --> 00:29:46.160
<v Speaker 2>for you guys?

612
00:29:47.119 --> 00:29:49.599
<v Speaker 5>What's next for me is tomorrow. It's our taco about

613
00:29:49.680 --> 00:29:51.160
<v Speaker 5>New Year's Eve downtown bull Back.

614
00:29:51.279 --> 00:29:52.440
<v Speaker 2>I was going to talk to you about that, yeah,

615
00:29:52.440 --> 00:29:54.279
<v Speaker 2>because you guys are connected to all that, so you

616
00:29:54.319 --> 00:29:55.240
<v Speaker 2>don't have time to breathe.

617
00:29:55.240 --> 00:29:56.400
<v Speaker 4>Maybe January second.

618
00:29:57.319 --> 00:29:59.680
<v Speaker 5>I'm hoping January second will be the time that we

619
00:29:59.720 --> 00:30:02.279
<v Speaker 5>can get them rest for a little while. But there's

620
00:30:02.359 --> 00:30:04.079
<v Speaker 5>not much rest for us. We've got a lot of

621
00:30:04.920 --> 00:30:06.839
<v Speaker 5>you know a lot of things to clean up and

622
00:30:07.000 --> 00:30:10.640
<v Speaker 5>finalize and you know, figure out, you know, how much

623
00:30:10.680 --> 00:30:13.160
<v Speaker 5>money we're going to be able to give to charities

624
00:30:13.240 --> 00:30:16.799
<v Speaker 5>this spring, and so, you know, not too much rest

625
00:30:16.839 --> 00:30:19.599
<v Speaker 5>for the weary. But we want everybody to come out

626
00:30:19.720 --> 00:30:22.880
<v Speaker 5>and join us and celebrating, you know, the ringing in

627
00:30:22.960 --> 00:30:27.039
<v Speaker 5>twenty twenty five. Here at midnight down at our you know,

628
00:30:27.119 --> 00:30:29.480
<v Speaker 5>New Year's Eve, ta our tak about New Year's Eve,

629
00:30:29.519 --> 00:30:32.359
<v Speaker 5>Downtown Bull Bash. You got fireworks, We've got our famous

630
00:30:32.359 --> 00:30:36.119
<v Speaker 5>taco touchdown at midnight. We've got a great fan it's

631
00:30:36.160 --> 00:30:40.160
<v Speaker 5>across the street from the Monica Downtown. It's it's one

632
00:30:40.160 --> 00:30:42.319
<v Speaker 5>of my favorite days of the year. It really is.

633
00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:44.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no, as it should be one of the things too.

634
00:30:45.759 --> 00:30:48.000
<v Speaker 2>It was a great game. It reminded me of the

635
00:30:48.000 --> 00:30:50.000
<v Speaker 2>New Mexico State game when a lot of people from

636
00:30:50.079 --> 00:30:52.400
<v Speaker 2>the community came out as well as the fans. And

637
00:30:52.440 --> 00:30:55.240
<v Speaker 2>it's more just just a game because the community came

638
00:30:55.279 --> 00:30:55.680
<v Speaker 2>out too.

639
00:30:57.359 --> 00:31:00.279
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it was so fantastic to see so many people

640
00:31:00.279 --> 00:31:03.440
<v Speaker 5>from our community to come out and embrace what we're doing.

641
00:31:04.480 --> 00:31:07.119
<v Speaker 5>It was awesome to give Snoop a full stadium to

642
00:31:07.160 --> 00:31:09.400
<v Speaker 5>look at, you know, as he's coming out for the

643
00:31:09.440 --> 00:31:12.839
<v Speaker 5>first time. But we are more than a game. We've

644
00:31:12.839 --> 00:31:15.240
<v Speaker 5>got so many great things that are happening during the game.

645
00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:19.119
<v Speaker 5>We had great DJ, we had great musical performances, we

646
00:31:19.240 --> 00:31:22.200
<v Speaker 5>had you know, great highlighting great people within our community

647
00:31:22.279 --> 00:31:24.519
<v Speaker 5>during our game, and had some fun things along the way.

648
00:31:24.559 --> 00:31:27.519
<v Speaker 5>And so, you know, if there's something for everybody, you

649
00:31:27.519 --> 00:31:29.319
<v Speaker 5>don't even have to be a football fan. There's some

650
00:31:29.400 --> 00:31:34.480
<v Speaker 5>type of entertainment and you know, extra special something, you know,

651
00:31:34.559 --> 00:31:36.400
<v Speaker 5>during the program of the game for everybody.

652
00:31:36.559 --> 00:31:38.960
<v Speaker 2>Right, So, I think he's here for three years, maybe

653
00:31:38.960 --> 00:31:42.599
<v Speaker 2>two more after this one. But before so you've done this,

654
00:31:43.839 --> 00:31:47.119
<v Speaker 2>how do you you're your car salesman. You sell ten this year,

655
00:31:47.240 --> 00:31:48.799
<v Speaker 2>how are you going to sell eleven next year?

656
00:31:50.359 --> 00:31:52.119
<v Speaker 5>Well, the great thing is is that we've got one

657
00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:55.759
<v Speaker 5>year under our belt and we've seen what we can do.

658
00:31:55.920 --> 00:31:59.920
<v Speaker 5>And now Snoop's seen, you know, personally, the whole event,

659
00:32:00.599 --> 00:32:03.640
<v Speaker 5>and I know for a fact his energy and enthusiasm

660
00:32:04.319 --> 00:32:07.799
<v Speaker 5>over the event, you know, really was meaningful to him,

661
00:32:08.319 --> 00:32:11.880
<v Speaker 5>and I can't wait to see what types of additive

662
00:32:12.599 --> 00:32:15.319
<v Speaker 5>aspects he wants to bring to the game to even

663
00:32:15.359 --> 00:32:19.039
<v Speaker 5>elevate it more. You know, I think we I think

664
00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:21.319
<v Speaker 5>this was just the beginning, and we can continue to

665
00:32:21.920 --> 00:32:26.039
<v Speaker 5>you know, bring more and more exposure, more and more entertainment,

666
00:32:26.240 --> 00:32:31.799
<v Speaker 5>more and more music and sports, you know, combined into

667
00:32:31.839 --> 00:32:33.480
<v Speaker 5>what we're doing here. I think it's going to be

668
00:32:34.240 --> 00:32:35.839
<v Speaker 5>really fantastic for years to come.

669
00:32:36.119 --> 00:32:40.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm curious doing your your status and your and your title.

670
00:32:41.079 --> 00:32:42.960
<v Speaker 2>You may have gotten a call or two from other

671
00:32:43.039 --> 00:32:45.160
<v Speaker 2>Bowl games where said, how was it?

672
00:32:45.200 --> 00:32:46.319
<v Speaker 4>How did you pull this off?

673
00:32:46.359 --> 00:32:48.960
<v Speaker 2>And we're thinking about doing it too, but you know,

674
00:32:49.359 --> 00:32:53.640
<v Speaker 2>with a different celebrity, if that makes any sense, you know, I.

675
00:32:53.559 --> 00:32:55.880
<v Speaker 5>Haven't had many calls like that, you know. I think

676
00:32:55.880 --> 00:32:58.039
<v Speaker 5>what we've done is kind of special. It's not something

677
00:32:58.079 --> 00:33:00.599
<v Speaker 5>that you can just pull out of a rabbit. The

678
00:33:00.799 --> 00:33:02.640
<v Speaker 5>years of planning for us to make it happen and

679
00:33:03.000 --> 00:33:06.279
<v Speaker 5>work through and we're in a position, you know, to

680
00:33:06.359 --> 00:33:09.400
<v Speaker 5>be able to do that. We're very scrappy, We're very nimble.

681
00:33:10.359 --> 00:33:12.359
<v Speaker 5>You know, a lot of other Bowls are sort of

682
00:33:12.519 --> 00:33:17.319
<v Speaker 5>entrenched in their tradition and broadcast partners and the things

683
00:33:17.480 --> 00:33:19.279
<v Speaker 5>that they can and cannot do. And so we've been

684
00:33:19.319 --> 00:33:25.319
<v Speaker 5>able to really be nimble and because that, you yeah,

685
00:33:25.440 --> 00:33:29.559
<v Speaker 5>to do bigger and better things each year. So I

686
00:33:29.599 --> 00:33:33.519
<v Speaker 5>think that we've definitely shown you know the world what

687
00:33:33.599 --> 00:33:36.480
<v Speaker 5>we can do. And I wouldn't be surprised if more people,

688
00:33:36.640 --> 00:33:38.440
<v Speaker 5>you know, try to, you know, try to do it.

689
00:33:38.799 --> 00:33:41.200
<v Speaker 5>More bold executives try to kind of jump in and

690
00:33:41.960 --> 00:33:45.400
<v Speaker 5>execute something similarly, Imitation is the best plum the flattery.

691
00:33:46.839 --> 00:33:48.160
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, if you're able to pull it off.

692
00:33:48.160 --> 00:33:50.839
<v Speaker 2>Like yeah, like you said, some bowls are restricted with

693
00:33:50.880 --> 00:33:53.200
<v Speaker 2>what they can and cannot do with with the person

694
00:33:53.240 --> 00:33:56.519
<v Speaker 2>they want to have do it with. Right, But no,

695
00:33:56.640 --> 00:33:59.240
<v Speaker 2>what a fantastic thing. Real quick to how did the

696
00:34:00.039 --> 00:34:02.559
<v Speaker 2>ill stuff do? What did you guys have them do

697
00:34:02.680 --> 00:34:05.000
<v Speaker 2>or what did they do to to you know, to

698
00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:06.400
<v Speaker 2>do what you guys did with the nil.

699
00:34:07.720 --> 00:34:10.519
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, So we hosted a camp on the day before

700
00:34:10.559 --> 00:34:14.039
<v Speaker 5>the game, a football camp for kids out on Beardown Field,

701
00:34:14.599 --> 00:34:19.199
<v Speaker 5>and from nine thirty to ten thirty, Miami came and

702
00:34:19.400 --> 00:34:21.880
<v Speaker 5>hosted that event. All of those players came and helped

703
00:34:22.000 --> 00:34:25.000
<v Speaker 5>the kids you know through the football camp, and they

704
00:34:25.039 --> 00:34:28.719
<v Speaker 5>earned nil dollars for that, and then from eleven to twelve,

705
00:34:28.719 --> 00:34:31.159
<v Speaker 5>Colorado State came and had the same experience with a

706
00:34:31.159 --> 00:34:33.400
<v Speaker 5>different set of kids. So it was really a win

707
00:34:33.480 --> 00:34:36.079
<v Speaker 5>win for our whole community because we've had, you know,

708
00:34:36.199 --> 00:34:39.440
<v Speaker 5>kids that had an experience working with these collegiate athletes

709
00:34:39.480 --> 00:34:41.559
<v Speaker 5>that they wouldn't have otherwise had, and then our athletes

710
00:34:41.599 --> 00:34:44.480
<v Speaker 5>had this experience, you know, help them kids, you know,

711
00:34:44.519 --> 00:34:48.480
<v Speaker 5>the next generation of football players coming up, you know,

712
00:34:48.599 --> 00:34:52.599
<v Speaker 5>have a great experience and hopefully mold them into feature

713
00:34:52.719 --> 00:34:54.320
<v Speaker 5>collegiate athletes as well.

714
00:34:54.920 --> 00:34:56.519
<v Speaker 2>We live at a time what a great time to

715
00:34:56.519 --> 00:34:58.239

00:36:03.320 --> 00:36:05.880
<v Speaker 3>He's one of four. Yeah, he's he was at the Olympics.

741
00:36:05.880 --> 00:36:06.559

745
00:36:17.719 --> 00:36:20.360
<v Speaker 2>hits the commercial butt. If you're an Arizona men's basketball fan,

746
00:36:20.440 --> 00:36:22.599
<v Speaker 2>you know it's been successful for nearly forty years.

747
00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:23.079
<v Speaker 1>Now.

748
00:36:23.159 --> 00:36:25.159
<v Speaker 2>Take a look back at the Ludolsen era in my

749
00:36:25.199 --> 00:36:27.159
<v Speaker 2>new book, Lessons from Loot. It was a labor of

750
00:36:27.199 --> 00:36:29.519
<v Speaker 2>love through the eyes of twenty five former players, coaches

751
00:36:29.559 --> 00:36:31.960
<v Speaker 2>and friends to give insight to the coach and the

752
00:36:32.000 --> 00:36:34.760

<v Speaker 4>Got about thirteen minutes before.

809
00:39:00.320 --> 00:39:02.960
<v Speaker 2>We head out to the basketball game tonight, the first

810
00:39:03.079 --> 00:39:04.000
<v Speaker 2>Big twelve.

811
00:39:03.639 --> 00:39:08.119
<v Speaker 3>Game, first official, first official. There was never a unofficial

812
00:39:08.960 --> 00:39:13.719
<v Speaker 3>West Virginia. Oh yeah, kind of yeah, non non conference

813
00:39:14.079 --> 00:39:16.400
<v Speaker 3>game counts is non conference, Yeah, but they are a

814
00:39:16.400 --> 00:39:19.760
<v Speaker 3>Big twelve. You are correct, You are correct. Okay, Well,

815
00:39:20.119 --> 00:39:20.880
<v Speaker 3>we'll see what happens.

816
00:39:20.880 --> 00:39:26.199
<v Speaker 4>I think that. What are you looking for tonight? Anything? Transition, transition.

817
00:39:26.880 --> 00:39:29.480
<v Speaker 2>He talked about the how they're a pretty good defensive team, right,

818
00:39:29.559 --> 00:39:31.840
<v Speaker 2>top five whatever is. Yeah, so we'll see. You think

819
00:39:31.840 --> 00:39:33.480
<v Speaker 2>it's seventy. I think they'll win. But if they don't,

820
00:39:33.480 --> 00:39:36.960
<v Speaker 2>it's going to be struggle. Caleble Love, like you said,

821
00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:39.639
<v Speaker 2>said it all year. As he goes, the team will go.

822
00:39:39.719 --> 00:39:42.679
<v Speaker 2>Obviously he guides them. I asked Tommy yesterday and I

823
00:39:42.679 --> 00:39:44.440
<v Speaker 2>didn't put this in the story. Well, maybe save it

824
00:39:44.480 --> 00:39:46.760
<v Speaker 2>for later this week about it. Has he found the

825
00:39:46.840 --> 00:39:50.320
<v Speaker 2>leader yet? He said no, he's still looking. That's kind

826
00:39:50.320 --> 00:39:51.280
<v Speaker 2>of strange.

827
00:39:51.960 --> 00:39:57.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, especially considering we're Yeah, the former PAC twelve Player.

828
00:39:57.000 --> 00:39:57.519
<v Speaker 4>Of the Year.

829
00:39:57.679 --> 00:40:00.440
<v Speaker 3>I don't think he's a leader though, No, I don't

830
00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:03.079
<v Speaker 3>think so. But I think that's kind of what he's

831
00:40:03.119 --> 00:40:04.480
<v Speaker 3>been thrown into.

832
00:40:04.360 --> 00:40:05.079
<v Speaker 4>Right right.

833
00:40:05.480 --> 00:40:08.280
<v Speaker 2>The leader in terms of production maybe, but not a

834
00:40:08.400 --> 00:40:10.920
<v Speaker 2>leader leader in terms of who do you think it's

835
00:40:10.920 --> 00:40:13.559
<v Speaker 2>the closest to I think the guy that could could

836
00:40:13.679 --> 00:40:16.000
<v Speaker 2>do that. And I asked this during the question. I

837
00:40:16.000 --> 00:40:19.400
<v Speaker 2>asked about Caleb with the quote you used was Jayden

838
00:40:19.440 --> 00:40:22.119
<v Speaker 2>Bradley Because he has the ball in his hand a lot,

839
00:40:22.320 --> 00:40:25.639
<v Speaker 2>He's got that personality of you know, he's a tough dude.

840
00:40:25.760 --> 00:40:28.079
<v Speaker 2>They can get stuff done and he can lead by

841
00:40:28.119 --> 00:40:31.679
<v Speaker 2>example and maybe even verbally because he's a smart guy,

842
00:40:32.920 --> 00:40:35.960
<v Speaker 2>So Jane Bradley would be my guess. I asked him

843
00:40:36.039 --> 00:40:37.719
<v Speaker 2>up with that too. I can't remember his answer to me,

844
00:40:38.800 --> 00:40:41.159
<v Speaker 2>but he tries to do it. But he was kind

845
00:40:41.159 --> 00:40:43.199
<v Speaker 2>of like polity correct and everybody has a role yet

846
00:40:44.079 --> 00:40:46.480
<v Speaker 2>and I asked time with that too, if if you

847
00:40:46.480 --> 00:40:49.000
<v Speaker 2>don't have a leader, could it be by committee? And

848
00:40:49.000 --> 00:40:53.039
<v Speaker 2>he can't say, yeah, everyone has their own personality.

849
00:40:53.119 --> 00:40:56.159
<v Speaker 4>And do you need a leader? I think you do

850
00:40:56.559 --> 00:40:59.599
<v Speaker 4>if you want to be successful? And what would that

851
00:40:59.679 --> 00:41:01.159
<v Speaker 4>leader is do? What?

852
00:41:01.079 --> 00:41:01.119
<v Speaker 5>What?

853
00:41:01.280 --> 00:41:03.480
<v Speaker 4>What does the leader do? Especially on a team with

854
00:41:03.519 --> 00:41:04.079
<v Speaker 4>young guys.

855
00:41:05.400 --> 00:41:09.039
<v Speaker 3>So so for me, there's typically two types of leaders.

856
00:41:09.039 --> 00:41:13.280
<v Speaker 3>There's the lead by example or lead with your presidence

857
00:41:13.480 --> 00:41:17.480
<v Speaker 3>m hm okay, I think I think Bradley is the

858
00:41:17.559 --> 00:41:22.559
<v Speaker 3>set by example. I don't think he's as not necessarily energetic,

859
00:41:22.679 --> 00:41:26.599
<v Speaker 3>but out there with his personality. He'll he'll go and

860
00:41:26.639 --> 00:41:30.199
<v Speaker 3>have fun, celebrate when need to. But I think someone

861
00:41:30.239 --> 00:41:34.599
<v Speaker 3>that could bring what Bradley can't is kJ Lewis. I

862
00:41:34.599 --> 00:41:37.119
<v Speaker 3>think he's very he has that he has a I

863
00:41:37.159 --> 00:41:39.039
<v Speaker 3>need a win at all cost mentality.

864
00:41:39.840 --> 00:41:44.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, closest thing to being a sophomore that play a factor.

865
00:41:44.840 --> 00:41:45.840
<v Speaker 2>He's not an older dude.

866
00:41:46.320 --> 00:41:46.559
<v Speaker 4>I don't.

867
00:41:46.559 --> 00:41:49.360
<v Speaker 3>I don't think so. I think at this point he's

868
00:41:49.639 --> 00:41:51.920
<v Speaker 3>he's played enough, Okay, he should Okay.

869
00:41:51.960 --> 00:41:53.840
<v Speaker 2>So now you have you have a sophomore and a

870
00:41:53.840 --> 00:41:58.320
<v Speaker 2>sophomore pretty much, right, maybe Jade's junior. Yeah, and you

871
00:41:58.400 --> 00:41:59.920
<v Speaker 2>have Kg's who's a sophomore.

872
00:42:00.519 --> 00:42:03.079
<v Speaker 4>Now you have a few older dudes. Well to listen

873
00:42:03.079 --> 00:42:07.039
<v Speaker 4>to these guys. If you want to win, you should.

874
00:42:07.119 --> 00:42:09.280
<v Speaker 2>The dynamic of it changes, right. You have to kind

875
00:42:09.280 --> 00:42:11.199
<v Speaker 2>of trust the guys. You have to believe in the guys.

876
00:42:11.199 --> 00:42:11.599
<v Speaker 4>You have to.

877
00:42:11.960 --> 00:42:14.199
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's what leadership is. You got to believe

878
00:42:14.199 --> 00:42:17.320
<v Speaker 2>in them and whatever they're saying. And I see if

879
00:42:17.320 --> 00:42:21.159
<v Speaker 2>they're legit all that, even if.

880
00:42:21.079 --> 00:42:25.159
<v Speaker 4>You don't want to listen, then why not step up? True?

881
00:42:25.239 --> 00:42:27.519
<v Speaker 2>That's why I think everybody has to kind of take

882
00:42:27.559 --> 00:42:29.840
<v Speaker 2>the reins of the and it might I think that's

883
00:42:29.920 --> 00:42:32.480
<v Speaker 2>what he said. Every game is different, so maybe somebody

884
00:42:32.480 --> 00:42:33.840
<v Speaker 2>else steps up in a certain times.

885
00:42:34.039 --> 00:42:36.559
<v Speaker 4>But that would mean there'd be a lot of leaders.

886
00:42:37.480 --> 00:42:37.880
<v Speaker 5>Leaders.

887
00:42:38.320 --> 00:42:40.440
<v Speaker 3>You get one or two, yeah, you get one, need

888
00:42:40.599 --> 00:42:44.199
<v Speaker 3>one or two yeah, yeah, Because at the end of

889
00:42:44.199 --> 00:42:46.800
<v Speaker 3>the day, that first leader, whoever it being does need

890
00:42:46.800 --> 00:42:49.280
<v Speaker 3>someone to fall back on. Yeah, he's not just gonna

891
00:42:49.440 --> 00:42:53.559
<v Speaker 3>go out there and do it by himself. Right, We'll see,

892
00:42:53.599 --> 00:42:56.079
<v Speaker 3>we'll see. It'll be interesting. It's gonna be an interesting

893
00:42:56.119 --> 00:42:58.280
<v Speaker 3>This is just a bizarre year. And I say bizarre

894
00:42:58.320 --> 00:43:00.599
<v Speaker 3>and not in a bad way, just to we haven't

895
00:43:00.639 --> 00:43:03.480
<v Speaker 3>seen this type of stuff in a long time, especially from

896
00:43:03.559 --> 00:43:05.039
<v Speaker 3>even just Tommy himself.

897
00:43:06.360 --> 00:43:08.440
<v Speaker 4>He's this is a big step in his coaching career.

898
00:43:08.599 --> 00:43:11.599
<v Speaker 2>He's in the new territory too, right, He's always had

899
00:43:11.599 --> 00:43:12.360
<v Speaker 2>it easy.

900
00:43:12.559 --> 00:43:14.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, in three years.

901
00:43:14.280 --> 00:43:16.639
<v Speaker 2>Now for uh, even at Gonzaga when he was not

902
00:43:16.679 --> 00:43:18.599
<v Speaker 2>the head coach. He's coach. He didn't have to deal

903
00:43:18.639 --> 00:43:23.199
<v Speaker 2>with this. Uh, and he wasn't. They were successful. Now

904
00:43:23.239 --> 00:43:25.840
<v Speaker 2>it's like, okay, here we are. Now this is on you,

905
00:43:25.920 --> 00:43:27.039
<v Speaker 2>and see what you can do with it.

906
00:43:27.480 --> 00:43:29.800
<v Speaker 4>I mean, you have the the lost to u C.

907
00:43:29.960 --> 00:43:30.119
<v Speaker 11>L A.

908
00:43:30.159 --> 00:43:33.360
<v Speaker 3>And it wouldn't look as bad if you were if

909
00:43:33.360 --> 00:43:35.320
<v Speaker 3>that was your first or second loss of the season.

910
00:43:35.360 --> 00:43:38.280
<v Speaker 3>You know, but you you already lost to Wisconsin, You've

911
00:43:38.280 --> 00:43:40.360
<v Speaker 3>already lost a duke, and you've lost two games in

912
00:43:40.400 --> 00:43:40.920
<v Speaker 3>the Bahamas.

913
00:43:41.079 --> 00:43:43.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the two games of the Bahamas were you know,

914
00:43:43.199 --> 00:43:45.920
<v Speaker 2>the one to West Virginia was a little uh weird,

915
00:43:46.559 --> 00:43:47.480
<v Speaker 2>and they went after that.

916
00:43:47.519 --> 00:43:50.079
<v Speaker 4>Who was the other one too? Lost in Oklahoma? I OK,

917
00:43:50.079 --> 00:43:52.840
<v Speaker 4>think that's one of the legit losses if you want

918
00:43:52.840 --> 00:43:54.800
<v Speaker 4>to know that, Yeah, because they'd be there. They're a

919
00:43:54.840 --> 00:43:56.559
<v Speaker 4>good team. Yeah, they be good, solid team.

920
00:43:56.559 --> 00:43:59.119
<v Speaker 3>They have they have a leader, they have a guy

921
00:43:59.159 --> 00:44:02.360
<v Speaker 3>out there making play yeah, and willing them to wins.

922
00:44:02.599 --> 00:44:02.880
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

923
00:44:03.360 --> 00:44:06.679
<v Speaker 2>So we'll see fourteen and six. I think that's the

924
00:44:06.679 --> 00:44:09.000
<v Speaker 2>target number for now. Win a couple more games in

925
00:44:09.039 --> 00:44:12.360
<v Speaker 2>the tournament. If you don't, then you're gonna be oo man.

926
00:44:12.719 --> 00:44:16.159
<v Speaker 3>I mean there's already the projections and the predictions out there.

927
00:44:16.440 --> 00:44:20.559
<v Speaker 4>The Wildcats are the next four out. Yeah.

928
00:44:20.719 --> 00:44:23.239
<v Speaker 3>Still, it's still it's a perfect place to be not

929
00:44:23.320 --> 00:44:26.159
<v Speaker 3>necessari not perfect, but right now that's the perfect place

930
00:44:26.440 --> 00:44:27.079
<v Speaker 3>to be placed.

931
00:44:27.199 --> 00:44:28.519
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and it's legit.

932
00:44:28.920 --> 00:44:31.239
<v Speaker 2>It's legit because there are other teams playing very well

933
00:44:31.480 --> 00:44:35.239
<v Speaker 2>and it gives you some motivation to be better. Not

934
00:44:35.360 --> 00:44:38.480
<v Speaker 2>that that will happen, I mean, doesn't guarantee you that

935
00:44:38.559 --> 00:44:39.800
<v Speaker 2>you'll get the motivation.

936
00:44:40.000 --> 00:44:43.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and at this point you shouldn't need any more motivation. Yeah,

937
00:44:44.079 --> 00:44:48.679
<v Speaker 3>we're six and five under quote unquote underachieving. Right, Well,

938
00:44:48.719 --> 00:44:51.079
<v Speaker 3>you should be wanting to play better and get today.

939
00:44:52.360 --> 00:44:56.360
<v Speaker 2>Tuesday, mondayday, Monday, so in a week or a weekend,

940
00:44:56.360 --> 00:44:58.159
<v Speaker 2>in a day or so, because they play tonight and

941
00:44:58.159 --> 00:45:00.159
<v Speaker 2>then they go to Saturday to West Virginia, right, and

942
00:45:00.199 --> 00:45:03.960
<v Speaker 2>then they played Tuesday in Cincinnati, so you know here

943
00:45:04.039 --> 00:45:06.960
<v Speaker 2>tonight and then two road games, which you're gonna be tough.

944
00:45:07.239 --> 00:45:08.920
<v Speaker 3>Every game on the road is gonna be tough. And

945
00:45:08.960 --> 00:45:10.719
<v Speaker 3>they got to steal at least one of those games

946
00:45:10.760 --> 00:45:13.559
<v Speaker 3>on the road. Yeah, it's almost like we're talking about

947
00:45:13.559 --> 00:45:17.679
<v Speaker 3>football again. You know that that Kansas State Utah road trips. Yeah,

948
00:45:17.800 --> 00:45:21.159
<v Speaker 3>you gotta win one. You gotta come out Ideally you

949
00:45:21.199 --> 00:45:23.800
<v Speaker 3>come out of this next week or so three and

950
00:45:23.840 --> 00:45:27.519
<v Speaker 3>one or two and one. Yeah, if you go one

951
00:45:27.559 --> 00:45:32.039
<v Speaker 3>and two, you're starting to question question things again.

952
00:45:32.159 --> 00:45:34.920
<v Speaker 4>Back to the drawing board and not in a good place.

953
00:45:35.159 --> 00:45:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no, no, And you have very little room to

954
00:45:38.079 --> 00:45:40.800
<v Speaker 2>mess up. The wiggle room is not good.

955
00:45:41.519 --> 00:45:43.519
<v Speaker 3>Even just even just looking at you know, TCUs for

956
00:45:43.679 --> 00:45:46.679
<v Speaker 3>you're facing them for the first time, kind of where

957
00:45:46.679 --> 00:45:48.519
<v Speaker 3>you're at at this point of the season, kind of

958
00:45:49.639 --> 00:45:52.960
<v Speaker 3>subpar mid level as far as their season goes. And

959
00:45:53.039 --> 00:45:56.480
<v Speaker 3>you have a Cincinnati team who's pretty dang good. Yeah,

960
00:45:56.480 --> 00:45:59.639
<v Speaker 3>they've been they've been ranked almost all season. And then

961
00:45:59.679 --> 00:46:02.840
<v Speaker 3>you you face a team you've already lost to at

962
00:46:02.840 --> 00:46:05.679
<v Speaker 3>their home r West Virginia, after already being on the

963
00:46:05.760 --> 00:46:06.559
<v Speaker 3>road at Cincinnati.

964
00:46:06.639 --> 00:46:10.199
<v Speaker 2>So I'm giving you a chance to write a little story. Uh,

965
00:46:10.239 --> 00:46:13.519
<v Speaker 2>and how would you describe this season? What word would you?

966
00:46:13.320 --> 00:46:16.400
<v Speaker 2>You kind of hit it the nail on the head.

967
00:46:16.519 --> 00:46:21.199
<v Speaker 2>It's just bizarre. Unfamiliar is another word?

968
00:46:21.519 --> 00:46:27.199
<v Speaker 4>Mediopen? Yeah, that's that's a good word to use. And

969
00:46:27.239 --> 00:46:28.400
<v Speaker 4>I've never used that word.

970
00:46:28.440 --> 00:46:32.320
<v Speaker 2>And for this maybe in Shawn's one of his last years,

971
00:46:32.320 --> 00:46:36.480
<v Speaker 2>but because you didn't know, but it's not it's not good.

972
00:46:36.719 --> 00:46:38.920
<v Speaker 2>I mean it was of fans. We're not used to this. No,

973
00:46:39.039 --> 00:46:40.039
<v Speaker 2>and and the way.

974
00:46:41.880 --> 00:46:46.480
<v Speaker 3>Uh our guests name, I forget his name, but Aaron

975
00:46:47.679 --> 00:46:50.079
<v Speaker 3>he kind of talked about it, but I think maybe

976
00:46:50.159 --> 00:46:52.280
<v Speaker 3>off air. But uh, you know, you look at those

977
00:46:52.280 --> 00:46:56.119
<v Speaker 3>two exhibition games. This this looked like a national championship team.

978
00:46:56.159 --> 00:47:00.400
<v Speaker 3>Everything jelled and then a month later you're starting question

979
00:47:00.480 --> 00:47:01.239
<v Speaker 3>is Tommy the guy?

980
00:47:01.639 --> 00:47:04.199
<v Speaker 4>Yeah? And people have Yeah, people have, which I think

981
00:47:04.239 --> 00:47:05.519
<v Speaker 4>is ridiculous. It is.

982
00:47:05.760 --> 00:47:08.199
<v Speaker 2>And the funny thing about is the people who say this,

983
00:47:09.239 --> 00:47:11.320
<v Speaker 2>not that they don't have a clue because they probably

984
00:47:11.320 --> 00:47:14.400
<v Speaker 2>they've seen enough games, but their credibility to have a

985
00:47:14.440 --> 00:47:17.760
<v Speaker 2>clue is the question. You know, Okay, so you're gonna

986
00:47:17.760 --> 00:47:20.920
<v Speaker 2>help with the buyout? You know what stake you have

987
00:47:21.039 --> 00:47:25.000
<v Speaker 2>in this? I got two cents start your goal funding? Yeah,

988
00:47:25.199 --> 00:47:25.679
<v Speaker 2>so you good?

989
00:47:25.760 --> 00:47:26.880
<v Speaker 4>Plenty that ain't happening.

990
00:47:26.920 --> 00:47:28.880
<v Speaker 3>I think when those type of things happen, when you

991
00:47:28.920 --> 00:47:33.679
<v Speaker 3>get the gofundmes are a little bit ridiculous. There's there's

992
00:47:33.719 --> 00:47:36.239
<v Speaker 3>people in certain positions for reasons to make those type

993
00:47:36.280 --> 00:47:37.239
<v Speaker 3>of decisions right.

994
00:47:37.320 --> 00:47:40.320
<v Speaker 4>Let them handle it. Let them You put your faith

995
00:47:40.320 --> 00:47:42.440
<v Speaker 4>into them too, to make those right decisions.

996
00:47:42.519 --> 00:47:44.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah you have I'm sure you have relatives like that.

997
00:47:44.880 --> 00:47:46.920
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, I'm saying that you don't have these opinions.

998
00:47:46.960 --> 00:47:49.039
<v Speaker 2>But what do they do? You know what I'm saying?

999
00:47:49.119 --> 00:47:52.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, getting getting of this little bit of experience since

1000
00:47:53.039 --> 00:47:56.159
<v Speaker 3>I think end of July. I do listen now in

1001
00:47:56.199 --> 00:48:00.559
<v Speaker 3>a different view in what sense, and they say something,

1002
00:48:00.559 --> 00:48:02.599
<v Speaker 3>and I say, what are you talking about? Did you

1003
00:48:02.679 --> 00:48:06.239
<v Speaker 3>watch the game? Did you did you watch the film?

1004
00:48:06.280 --> 00:48:10.159
<v Speaker 3>Have you have you heard what they're saying? Well, because

1005
00:48:10.719 --> 00:48:14.559
<v Speaker 3>especially after the Duke loss, everyone everyone I'm surrounded by

1006
00:48:14.800 --> 00:48:19.519
<v Speaker 3>saying so Arizona's trash this year on all levels football, basketball.

1007
00:48:19.800 --> 00:48:23.400
<v Speaker 3>I said, no, that we lost to a good team football.

1008
00:48:23.480 --> 00:48:25.159
<v Speaker 3>They struggled, They had their reasons to struggle.

1009
00:48:26.400 --> 00:48:27.760
<v Speaker 4>So you an apologist kind of.

1010
00:48:29.760 --> 00:48:33.039
<v Speaker 3>Are realist Now I'm a realist now you weren't before. No,

1011
00:48:33.159 --> 00:48:35.360
<v Speaker 3>I will help you with that. Yes you have. I

1012
00:48:35.400 --> 00:48:37.880
<v Speaker 3>was gonna. I've adapted. I'm losing the fan of me,

1013
00:48:38.159 --> 00:48:40.800
<v Speaker 3>just ever so slightly. But when I get those moments

1014
00:48:40.840 --> 00:48:43.159
<v Speaker 3>where I'm just watching the game at home, yeah, the

1015
00:48:43.239 --> 00:48:44.960
<v Speaker 3>neighbors will probably call the police.

1016
00:48:45.639 --> 00:48:47.159
<v Speaker 4>Something might be happening. I'm not sure.

1017
00:48:47.559 --> 00:48:50.159
<v Speaker 2>He's yelling a lot. Oh you still have that, Yeah,

1018
00:48:50.360 --> 00:48:53.000
<v Speaker 2>it's still there. I do too when I got dropped

1019
00:48:53.000 --> 00:48:55.400
<v Speaker 2>the ball and I need the yards or uh.

1020
00:48:55.880 --> 00:48:58.079
<v Speaker 3>But that have been that have been Saturday with the

1021
00:48:58.079 --> 00:49:01.719
<v Speaker 3>Broncos that I I didn't even watch the final two minutes.

1022
00:49:01.880 --> 00:49:04.039
<v Speaker 2>There's one thing with that. You can't lose that passion.

1023
00:49:04.079 --> 00:49:06.400
<v Speaker 2>You just can't. Maybe when you get older like me,

1024
00:49:06.480 --> 00:49:09.719
<v Speaker 2>you will, but but it's eventually you say, you know what,

1025
00:49:09.719 --> 00:49:10.719
<v Speaker 2>what's the importance of it?

1026
00:49:10.760 --> 00:49:13.119
<v Speaker 3>You carry yourself a little bit differently when when you

1027
00:49:13.159 --> 00:49:16.320
<v Speaker 3>get the experiences, and I thought it would be it's

1028
00:49:16.320 --> 00:49:18.079
<v Speaker 3>going to be an adjustment for me with the football

1029
00:49:18.119 --> 00:49:21.880
<v Speaker 3>games because that's my sport, that's my team. Uh well,

1030
00:49:21.960 --> 00:49:25.280
<v Speaker 3>for for I'm saying this. Before I started, Yeah, yeah,

1031
00:49:25.840 --> 00:49:29.679
<v Speaker 3>you know football, I followed them religiously and I thought

1032
00:49:29.719 --> 00:49:31.800
<v Speaker 3>I was going to struggle when I started covering them,

1033
00:49:31.840 --> 00:49:33.760
<v Speaker 3>and it kind of came a little bit. It kind

1034
00:49:33.760 --> 00:49:36.800
<v Speaker 3>of helped me, honestly, help my help my my physical

1035
00:49:36.840 --> 00:49:37.519
<v Speaker 3>health honestly.

1036
00:49:37.679 --> 00:49:39.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know part of it is because they weren't

1037
00:49:39.440 --> 00:49:42.079
<v Speaker 2>any good. Yeah, and that kind of eased your pain

1038
00:49:42.280 --> 00:49:43.559
<v Speaker 2>because you knew they weren't any good.

1039
00:49:43.719 --> 00:49:45.599
<v Speaker 4>If they were good, really good, you you.

1040
00:49:45.519 --> 00:49:47.480
<v Speaker 2>Would have been a fandom covering You would have been

1041
00:49:47.480 --> 00:49:48.840
<v Speaker 2>a fan boy covering the team.

1042
00:49:49.320 --> 00:49:49.760
<v Speaker 4>Oh man.

1043
00:49:50.280 --> 00:49:54.119
<v Speaker 3>I think them not being as successful this year definitely

1044
00:49:54.119 --> 00:49:57.960
<v Speaker 3>helped get get into those mindsets of yeah I need

1045
00:49:57.960 --> 00:50:00.840
<v Speaker 3>a this is how I went black, and why deal?

1046
00:50:01.119 --> 00:50:01.880
<v Speaker 4>Right? Right?

1047
00:50:02.239 --> 00:50:05.599
<v Speaker 2>And it just gives you a different focus, right, a

1048
00:50:05.599 --> 00:50:06.840
<v Speaker 2>better focus for your job.

1049
00:50:06.920 --> 00:50:07.079
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

1050
00:50:07.119 --> 00:50:09.519
