Speaker 1: Steve Rivera and jaygn Salez. They have their eye on
Speaker 1: the ball on Tucson Sports Big yet Fox Sports fourteen
Speaker 1: fifty streaming live. I mean I heard radio WAPs.
Speaker 2: Hey, welcome back to tying the ball here on Fox
Speaker 2: Sports fourteen fifty. I'm Steve, he's Jay. Now we have
Speaker 2: Henry with breaking news.
Speaker 3: T mac was named the Walter Camp National Player.
Speaker 4: Of the Week just yesterday right over this morning and
Speaker 4: this morning, this morning, and he was AP Player of
Speaker 4: the Week, Big twelve Player of the Week.
Speaker 5: He was all over the all over the national media.
Speaker 2: Right and you could have had a bigger day the
Speaker 2: one thing again, and I'll just repeat this because it's
Speaker 2: like we just found out Christmas was on December twenty
Speaker 2: fifth by a lot of.
Speaker 5: The national guys.
Speaker 4: Where have you bid? Guys. Honestly, he's the same dude
Speaker 4: we've seen them all along.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but he might be a little more a little
Speaker 5: more of a dude than he was last year.
Speaker 4: Oh of course, because you know he's old.
Speaker 5: Got here. You know.
Speaker 4: Let me say this.
Speaker 2: I had heard a Jay that that he was not
Speaker 2: going to be made available, just the rumor. No, and
Speaker 2: I'm going to say that he was not going to
Speaker 2: be made available locally. He didn't kind of want to
Speaker 2: talk to locals. He talked yesterday, which is great. H
Speaker 2: So that was all of a debunk rumor that did
Speaker 2: not exist. So you know it's good because the locals
Speaker 2: need to hear from their star.
Speaker 5: Well yeah, I mean I think you know, after the game,
Speaker 5: you get back to the car.
Speaker 4: Because well, go ahead, were you gonna talk about my story?
Speaker 4: Because I mentioned he had this great.
Speaker 2: Game player and then he does come to the press
Speaker 2: conference and that's kind of kind of where it started.
Speaker 2: The heck, right, I mean generals in one on one.
Speaker 5: Yeah, go get the get the guy the guy. I mean,
Speaker 5: you know, if it would have been in an open
Speaker 5: locker room, everybody had gone to him first, he would
Speaker 5: have been the one that everybody had gone to, and
Speaker 5: then you go to Noah, then maybe go to the right.
Speaker 5: But to not bring him to a press conference when
Speaker 5: he sat a game like that, right, It's just that's
Speaker 5: that's just an issue that we have with me that
Speaker 5: the media has to have. If I'm you know, if
Speaker 5: I'm in your position or Justin Spears or anybody else,
Speaker 5: I'm like, what the hell are we doing?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Because I got to the car and I, you know,
Speaker 5: and I put on the YouTube, you know, the press conference,
Speaker 5: And by the time I got to the car, the
Speaker 5: press conference started and it's talking to Noah and I
Speaker 5: assumed t Mac was sitting right next to him. And
Speaker 5: then they back up the camera and it's and it's
Speaker 5: the running back.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and they didn't bring and that's all they brought in.
Speaker 2: They didn't bring any defensive players, they didn't bring anybody. Uh,
Speaker 2: it's strange. And I don't know why it's strange. I
Speaker 2: know why it's strange. I can't explain what the world
Speaker 2: we're coming to because it's you talk about those games.
Speaker 5: I mean, it's like, why wouldn't you want to tell
Speaker 5: that story. He's had such an incredible game. Why wouldn't
Speaker 5: you want him to be in front of it.
Speaker 4: Imagine you're you're on deadline.
Speaker 2: You got half hour to go down, get your quotes,
Speaker 2: and come back up and finish your story. Your lead
Speaker 2: is you know whatever, but it's centric.
Speaker 4: To t mac, right, yeah, and you have no quote
Speaker 4: the follow you have nowhere to go with this quote.
Speaker 5: I mean who I read, uh justin spears story the
Speaker 5: next morning or was it maybe it was maybe a
Speaker 5: love story and they had to quote him off the
Speaker 5: interview off of TV. Oh yeah right, ESPN, right right
Speaker 5: off the you know, the postgame interview on ESPN. That's
Speaker 5: that was the quotes. Those are the quotes they got
Speaker 5: from t Mac. I'm I know, you know what, I know,
Speaker 5: we kicked this horse all the time, but but we
Speaker 5: wouldn't if yeah right, and it's like, ah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it made no sense to me. I was kind
Speaker 2: of almost disinterested when he didn't show up, and then
Speaker 2: I was still waiting, like those two guys came in
Speaker 2: and Brennan.
Speaker 5: I'm thinking as big as anybody else?
Speaker 6: Is that?
Speaker 5: Is that it? Yeah?
Speaker 4: I said, well, if they don't care, why should I.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and that's too bad. That's really too bad. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, Arizona Baseball will be having their fall games on
Speaker 3: October third, Verse her Ceo, October twelfth, First Pima and
Speaker 3: October eighteenth, first Central Arizona.
Speaker 4: Okay, because they have the we gotta get mic on.
Speaker 5: Yes, when when is that first one again?
Speaker 6: There?
Speaker 3: October third?
Speaker 5: All right, so the month. Look at me, in a
Speaker 5: few weeks you're talking about that. That's always fun again.
Speaker 5: So yeah, no, you know again one of those things
Speaker 5: would they start to find out if they're gonna be
Speaker 5: any good.
Speaker 3: Caleb Love has been named a Blue Ribbon preseason first
Speaker 3: Team All Americans.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw that. Bruce had that yesterday. I think
Speaker 2: I think he he writes a little for Blue Ribbon,
Speaker 2: not Shock, not Shock.
Speaker 4: Let me ask you, Jay, as as Love goes, Arizona goes,
Speaker 4: I have my answer.
Speaker 5: I'm not so.
Speaker 2: Sure mine as I know mine as I know only
Speaker 2: because we know how good he is. Yeah, guy, they
Speaker 2: have to and they have to have.
Speaker 5: You have to have. You can't know. You can't be
Speaker 5: a top five, top ten team with one guy.
Speaker 4: Did the last k prove that?
Speaker 5: Well, not only that, Steve, but you know every every
Speaker 5: team at the top of the ladder like that has
Speaker 5: a bunch of no. So I now, does he have
Speaker 5: to have a good season for them to be good? Yes,
Speaker 5: but you know it's not all on him, you know,
Speaker 5: And if he's not and if he's not having the season,
Speaker 5: then you go get another guy. You put another guy
Speaker 5: in that spot.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I think he's gonna have a good year.
Speaker 2: Two and I think that heal, he'll be a better shooter,
Speaker 2: more consistent. And we've talked about this a lot on
Speaker 2: this show.
Speaker 4: Uh, it was. It was Steve obviously a better shooter.
Speaker 2: Salim, and they haven't had a guy since yea, and
Speaker 2: maybe maybe you.
Speaker 4: Could put him in this category. If he has that
Speaker 4: good year from.
Speaker 5: The perimeter, he's got an opportunity to be there. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: he does, because you haven't had one since Salim, I know,
Speaker 5: and that's a long time ago. That's then twelve thirteen
Speaker 5: years yeah, yeah, oh man. And and the thing here's
Speaker 5: what kills me about that Steve is that so many
Speaker 5: teams have come into mcay, even some of those directional
Speaker 5: schools and the hyphenated schools, who have that guy.
Speaker 4: Let me correct myself, it's about eighteen years ago, nineteen
Speaker 4: years ago, who have a shooter? Oh yeah, you know.
Speaker 5: Jimmer for dat. Yeah, what the hell was he doing
Speaker 5: to b Yu? Why wasn't he in Arizona?
Speaker 2: You and you're he oh man? Because these guys go
Speaker 2: to places they could play. Honestly, Gilbert Ruben Doublins went
Speaker 2: to went to New Mexico. And you're poop pooing the
Speaker 2: quality of play at these places.
Speaker 5: But I get it. I look, but you know, I
Speaker 5: mean the kid from what was it from Providence that
Speaker 5: came and put forty five on them years ago. It
Speaker 5: was Providence. Yeah, I can't remember Eric H. Murdoch Murdoch. Yes,
Speaker 5: why did in Arizona have that guy or a guy
Speaker 5: like him?
Speaker 4: Because they're not good? Apparently they're not good though.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, a good shooter in the last few years would
Speaker 2: have been fantastic, uh for even for uh for the
Speaker 2: TJ McConnell years if they had a shooter during that,
Speaker 2: because they didn't have a shooter during those times, you know,
Speaker 2: and gave York was not good enough.
Speaker 5: Well yeah, and how many times have they had a
Speaker 5: guy that they said this is the guy? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: and it didn't any penny didn't and didn't pan out.
Speaker 5: They've even said that about Caleb Love And while he
Speaker 5: was good in games, he wasn't consistently good. And you
Speaker 5: need a guy that that every game you can count
Speaker 5: on having that shooter.
Speaker 3: Jamar Hamlin will be getting his first start on Sunday
Speaker 3: since his cardiac arrest.
Speaker 2: That should be an interesting right because he's me was
Speaker 2: played a little last year back. But it's what an
Speaker 2: inspiring type of story?
Speaker 5: Yeah, it is. I you know, what do you say, right?
Speaker 5: What do you say, it's just like wow, wow, right exactly.
Speaker 5: You can't say much more than that.
Speaker 3: A seventeen year old was charged with attempted murder on
Speaker 3: the shooting of forty nine Ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsoon.
Speaker 5: I heard about that, did you say, he's already trying
Speaker 5: to figure out when he can come back and play.
Speaker 5: Hey got shot in the chest and it went like
Speaker 5: in and out, and he's still like, hey, man, I'm
Speaker 5: ready to go. It's like, if I got shot, I'm like,
Speaker 5: check back with me in about five years. That might
Speaker 5: be worth something. Then it's crazy. These guys are just
Speaker 5: you know, they're nuts. But good, good for him. Good
Speaker 5: that that you know, And I it's seventeen years old. Man,
Speaker 5: I don't know. I don't know, all right, don't get
Speaker 5: me started there.
Speaker 3: In Caitlyn Clark's rookie season, the Fever clinched their first
Speaker 3: playoff berth since twenty sixteen.
Speaker 4: So they finally got the gut in what seed eight seed?
Speaker 4: I think probably the seventh seeds.
Speaker 2: She's probably rookie, the probably she'd probably be Rookie of
Speaker 2: the year. Reached out a fantastic year though.
Speaker 5: She has, But you know, you can say, you what
Speaker 5: what what Caitlin H. Clark is doing is looks flash
Speaker 5: here right more special. It's not the right, it's not
Speaker 5: the you know, the the double the double doubles or
Speaker 5: the you know down you know, down low. You know,
Speaker 5: it's gonna be interesting to see what happens. And I mean,
Speaker 5: I think she'll get it.
Speaker 2: And she and she I don't I don't want to
Speaker 2: say raised the level of of play, but she raised
Speaker 2: the level of attendance and then right eyes on the on.
Speaker 5: The every arena that she goes to on the w
Speaker 5: as they say, it's crazy, is that it?
Speaker 4: Henry? You saw you got We've got a lot of
Speaker 4: stuff probably left. What's on ESPN or what did did you?
Speaker 4: I know you probably went through this yesterday. There is
Speaker 4: on the moved up one spot in the A.
Speaker 2: People and two well they're eighteen in the and the
Speaker 2: coaches the coaches put twenty in the in the A people, right, Yeah.
Speaker 4: Because Florida State.
Speaker 2: Oh did you see that the jetfish watches already is
Speaker 2: on you say that they had him number two behigh
Speaker 2: mind uh.
Speaker 5: Mis Lane Lane Kiffin. Yeah, Yeah, that'd be interesting to
Speaker 5: see what happens there. Yeah, we'll see what happen. All right,
Speaker 5: So something that's been been been debating. I know what
Speaker 5: the answer and the argument is. But Pat McAfee, did
Speaker 5: you watch Game Day?
Speaker 2: And I watched some of it. I watched some of it.
Speaker 2: I know that they loved Saban, you know, you cussed them.
Speaker 5: That was great, that was really good.
Speaker 2: But not the other guy, well a leak course not yeah,
Speaker 2: not for another day. But no, you're with with the kid,
Speaker 2: the young kid. You just mentioned the name that no
Speaker 2: McAfee McAfee can cause. But I mean, uh, concuse but
Speaker 2: not maca.
Speaker 5: Savans earned it. Savans paid way more. Duce.
Speaker 4: I didn't watch it, but I don't. I don't get it,
Speaker 4: so it does I don't.
Speaker 5: Well again, you know, And and it's funny because, uh,
Speaker 5: my son Adam, he sent he sent a thing about
Speaker 5: how many millions of people you don't watch Game Day?
Speaker 5: And I said, I understand. I said, I get it.
Speaker 5: You know, I understand understand why he's on the show
Speaker 5: because he gets he gets eyes. But I'm not one
Speaker 5: of the eyes that they're looking for, you, right, I
Speaker 5: get it. I'm you know, I I just don't like it.
Speaker 5: I don't like him. I don't like what he does
Speaker 5: on the show. He made about three or four references
Speaker 5: to Donald Trump during the show, and I'm like, what
Speaker 5: are you doing?
Speaker 6: Right?
Speaker 5: You know, we again, we don't come here for that,
Speaker 5: that's for sure. And so you know, I just I
Speaker 5: just don't like the guy, and I don't like what
Speaker 5: he brings to the show. But you know, ESPN does
Speaker 5: like what he brings to the show, and that's why
Speaker 5: he's there. I know somebody said, if I know, if
Speaker 5: you said, there was a video of a during a
Speaker 5: break where McAfee's going crazy and Nick Saban's looking at
Speaker 5: him like they're an idiot, You're an idiot.
Speaker 4: I'm glad I didn't recruit you.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, no, that's just the way of the world. I mean,
Speaker 2: you have you have Henry, who's to date, right, he's
Speaker 2: kind of we have U we have you know, kind
Speaker 2: of cool, kind of just calm, you know whatever. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you don't you don't get excited. I can't remember the
Speaker 2: last guy we had he was excited was what's his name?
Speaker 2: He went to l A who could have gone to
Speaker 2: Montana and he.
Speaker 4: Gave him bad advice, you know, kind of like you
Speaker 4: know it snarky but cool and funny. I want to
Speaker 4: say really, but it wasn't. Uh well Will right real
Speaker 4: who who is cool?
Speaker 2: But you know, more personality. Guess what we're getting to
Speaker 2: the age where.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't want it's just it's just annoying to me.
Speaker 5: You know. He at one point he stands up on
Speaker 5: the table and the whole bit he.
Speaker 4: Took up a shirt.
Speaker 5: I think he took off his shirt and he's yelling
Speaker 5: at the ground like that is so on what I want,
Speaker 5: what I want to see?
Speaker 7: Should you?
Speaker 4: Should you watch it?
Speaker 2: I don't watch it like that, and I don't really
Speaker 2: care either way. But you have you have him Macabe,
Speaker 2: and then you have Sabing, and then you have Will
Speaker 2: corso three three totally different dudes, because the Corstal thing
Speaker 2: is kind of oh man, yeah, it's almost.
Speaker 4: Get him off, get him off the set, it's good.
Speaker 2: And then you have Saban, who's gonna be good. And
Speaker 2: then you have Macavie. Either you like him or you don't, right,
Speaker 2: you know, because anybody your son's age, okay, cool? Hey, yeah,
Speaker 2: you know, I just look for insight. I don't know
Speaker 2: if I get anything.
Speaker 5: And that's the thing. You don't get insight from Pat McAfee,
Speaker 5: you just get noise. Right, Well, Saban tells you you
Speaker 5: learn something when when he starts, you haven't learned something.
Speaker 5: When Lee Corso's talking, you learn something. When Kirk Kurbsky
Speaker 5: is talking, you learn nothing. When Pat McAfee's talking, you
Speaker 5: just get noise. And that's that's the part that I
Speaker 5: that I really don't like about his role and his
Speaker 5: bit on the show, because I don't. I'm not watching
Speaker 5: that for noise. I'm watching that too. You know. Look,
Speaker 5: I get it. I it's my body clock, right, my
Speaker 5: body knows that college game day is starting. So I
Speaker 5: get up and I start watching at six o'clock in
Speaker 5: the morning and get some coffee, get you know, and
Speaker 5: I and I want, I don't, I don't zero in.

Speaker 5: watch it for ten minutes and I'll go do something.
Speaker 5: But it's always on in the morning in my house.
Speaker 4: Well it's offully, not enough for you not to stop watching.
Speaker 5: Right right. But and I'll tell you what. When he

Speaker 5: don't know about two three hours before the game, and
Speaker 5: it cooled everything off and it was actually a pleasant night.
Speaker 5: But it's supposed to be sizzling this week.
Speaker 4: This weekend, so you know, two people show up at

Speaker 5: How that is.
Speaker 4: Did you watch you have a chance to watch any
Speaker 4: part of the game?

Speaker 5: an hour later than us, right, so it was late
Speaker 5: one o'clock, Yeah.
Speaker 4: One o'clock. What would you what would your your lead been,
Speaker 4: you know.

Speaker 6: four thousand.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we talked about that earlier.
Speaker 2: I don't think it's going to be any better on
Speaker 2: Saturday against any of you.

Speaker 6: history of Arizona football and.
Speaker 2: That's why and that's yeah, that's my defense to your
Speaker 2: honor exactly we've seen it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, it's yeah.
Speaker 6: Except strangely enough, during this Tuops years it didn't apply.
Speaker 4: Then.
Speaker 6: Remember he would sell out. They would sell out versusly
Speaker 6: every game.
Speaker 5: Remember that, Remember that Iowa, that Iowa game, you could
Speaker 5: not squeeze one more person into the stadium. Well at
Speaker 5: that game, what was the percentage of Wiowa fans in? Well,
Speaker 5: I know, but still the thing was full. It was
Speaker 5: I mean, I got I had half a seat at
Speaker 5: that game. It was crazy. It's crazy.
Speaker 6: And when BYU plays there, same thing.
Speaker 5: Yeah, same thing BYU. Well, well you remember the when
Speaker 5: when O how State came I think was Dick Dick
Speaker 5: Tomy's last year or how State fans bought U of
Speaker 5: a season tickets so that they would have a seat
Speaker 5: to that game, and then they sold the rest of
Speaker 5: them and we ended up with some a s U
Speaker 5: fans sitting in our area because one of the people
Speaker 5: that we sit with didn't didn't get his season tickets
Speaker 5: before I know how State fans snapped them up. We
Speaker 5: were really mad. Anyways, Hey, so but overall, what you think,
Speaker 5: I mean, Team Mac you know went off, But what'd
Speaker 5: you think about what you saw?
Speaker 6: To be honest, I was really disappointed with the defense, right,
Speaker 6: the size of the defensive front, and how the secondary,
Speaker 6: which is a strength right, Allegedly, they just weren't good
Speaker 6: and it was a really bad team New Mexico. Maybe
Speaker 6: maybe that happened in the opener against teams you don't
Speaker 6: really get up for, but otherwise I thought it created
Speaker 6: a lot of tension about what might happen down the
Speaker 6: stretch with so many close games in the Big Twelve.
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, that's the whole thing. It gave you pause.
Speaker 2: Right when going in, you didn't have any pause to
Speaker 2: think about what was going to happen next. Now you think, okay,
Speaker 2: to get rid of NAU and then you go to
Speaker 2: Kansas State. I'm sure you feel more concerned than you
Speaker 2: were a week ago.
Speaker 6: Well, that road game at Kansas State is going to
Speaker 6: be like playing at you know, a UFC or somebody
Speaker 6: you know in the recent years. And then after that,
Speaker 6: where's the light touch in the league other than maybe Houston. Right,
Speaker 6: I was looking Arizona schedule, I thought the only sure
Speaker 6: victory was at home against Houston.
Speaker 5: And I don't think I don't think there, I don't
Speaker 5: think there's any sure victories. But they also can win
Speaker 5: them all, you know, and they're not that they're going
Speaker 5: to but you don't. You don't see anybody on the
Speaker 5: schedule that they can't beat, right.
Speaker 6: I'm curious to see that Iowa State Iowa game this
Speaker 6: week because I keep reading that Iowa States really good. Yeah,
Speaker 6: you know I was favored over him, So yeah, that'll
Speaker 6: tell a lot about the league.
Speaker 2: So, Greg, you saw, you've seen a number of football
Speaker 2: games over the last thirty forty years here. I'm not
Speaker 2: the football guy. I was the basketball guy. And I've
Speaker 2: said this a number of times. And I said this
Speaker 2: on the show maybe a week ago with Jay that
Speaker 2: if even before Saturday's performance by Teamate, that he'll go
Speaker 2: down as the best football player to ever play here.
Speaker 2: I don't know what you think about that statement, but
Speaker 2: what are your thoughts on him?
Speaker 6: Well, you know, I was just thinking that he would
Speaker 6: be a strong contender for the bullet and a coof Award,
Speaker 6: And I looked up they've had thirty Bulletan the Coff
Speaker 6: Award winners for top receiver, and only three Pack twelve
Speaker 6: guys have won that award. And it got me done
Speaker 6: some research on Pac twelve receiving. There's really never been
Speaker 6: a a huge, big time receiving star in the Pac
Speaker 6: twelve like running backs and tackles and linebackers and quarterbacks.
Speaker 6: Because I mean, you tell me who's the best receiver
Speaker 6: in Pac twelve history.
Speaker 2: The only guy that I can think of, and it
Speaker 2: just came up, it was Keshawn Johnson. And I could
Speaker 2: be I could be wrong.
Speaker 6: The all time leading receivers Troy Walters and who Yeah
Speaker 6: he played for Stanford when they went to snuck into
Speaker 6: the one rose ball. But second is that ASU guy
Speaker 6: Derrick Hagen.
Speaker 4: Okay, he got more.
Speaker 6: He cut three thousand yards worth of passes and he
Speaker 6: wasn't even a He wasn't a big star by any means.
Speaker 6: So t meck too bad to pack twelve isn't together
Speaker 6: because as you were just saying, Steve, he could go
Speaker 6: out of the greatest receiver in Pac twelve history.
Speaker 5: Mm hmm, yeah, you're right. I mean I can't think
Speaker 5: I have visions of receivers, right, uh, DeShawn Jackson, some
Speaker 5: USC guys that all I see is the uniform. I
Speaker 5: don't know who they who?
Speaker 4: They specifically texted us the Richard lyn Swan.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Lynn Swan, But.
Speaker 6: That was before the Pack twelve.
Speaker 4: That's true, that's true, or the pactor I.
Speaker 6: Mean named the three Pac twelve guys to win the award.
Speaker 4: Man, that's a good question. I couldn't tell you. I
Speaker 4: couldn't tell you that.
Speaker 5: You tell who are they?
Speaker 6: Brandon Cooks of Oregon.
Speaker 4: State, Okay, he mentioned his on Saturday.
Speaker 6: Mike Hosts of Oregon State and markkith Lee of US.
Speaker 5: Okay, Mike, that's what I was trying to think of.
Speaker 5: He's the one that had like three hundred and some
Speaker 5: yards against Arizona here when Arizona beat him. Right, that's funny.
Speaker 2: That's funny because even the last receiver that I remember saying,
Speaker 2: holy crap was the USC kid who got his broke,
Speaker 2: his leg broke.
Speaker 5: Uh London, London. That's yeah, that's it.
Speaker 2: And they're all skinny, tall guys, which, of course, so
Speaker 2: the team A guess that's what Team MAC is.
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 6: I mean, I looked up. I looked up the Big
Speaker 6: twelve record for yards in a game, receiving yards in
Speaker 6: a game, and the only two guys to go over
Speaker 6: three hundred happened in the same game against one another.
Speaker 5: Oh wow, who was that? It was?
Speaker 6: Baylor West Virginia in twenty twelve in a seventy to
Speaker 6: sixty three games.
Speaker 5: Oh jeez, was it never.
Speaker 6: Heard of either? I've never heard of either receiver.
Speaker 5: Was it an overtime game.
Speaker 6: Taylor and Steddton Bailey of West Virginia.
Speaker 5: Was it an overtime game or anything? Or just a
Speaker 5: it wasn't. Wow.
Speaker 6: Gino Smith was the quarterback of West Virginia and he
Speaker 6: completed forty eight to fifty one passes.
Speaker 5: Jesus, and that's talking to Big twelve football. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: it's too funny.
Speaker 6: We kind of want to, you know, go ahead, Tamac
Speaker 6: to become the if you counted his Arizona stat for
Speaker 6: him to become the leading receiver in Big twelve history,
Speaker 6: if he played a senior year here, he would need
Speaker 6: two hundred and one more catches.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he talked about I think that yesterday that he'd
Speaker 2: have to have like one hundred and twenty in the
Speaker 2: next Yes, you know that ain't gonna happen. But you
Speaker 2: didn't answer my question. You didn't answer my question. You
Speaker 2: sounded like he's like Sean Miller there. I asked him
Speaker 2: a question, Oh the sky is blue, about being the
Speaker 2: best player to ever. And I know, you know, we
Speaker 2: have the Ricky humans, and we have the bruce Kis,
Speaker 2: and we have the Gronks. But to me, to me,
Speaker 2: when I remember two years ago he came up with
Speaker 2: a catch against Cow and I'm thinking, that's why they
Speaker 2: got this kid, and he's been great since.
Speaker 6: Man, just because just because I was here then I
Speaker 6: would always probably lean towards Chuck and Ricky. And if
Speaker 6: you were there, if you happened to be there that
Speaker 6: night one Stafford with John Elway at quarterback, got a
Speaker 6: first down of the ten with a minute ago, and
Speaker 6: Ricky broke up all four passes. I mean that kind
Speaker 6: of Yeah, I've forever not Ricky is as good as
Speaker 6: you can get.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it makes sense, but I can't argue that.
Speaker 4: I can't argue that now.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well you're never gonna be wrong, right right if
Speaker 5: you say Ricky Hunley right right.
Speaker 4: It's funny though.
Speaker 2: You see the kids get on Twitter today, Oh it's
Speaker 2: the ground can he didn't play here and played like
Speaker 2: a year and a half and it's you know, it's
Speaker 2: all little the bruce Kis and and and okay give
Speaker 2: you that, but you know it's it's the last twenty years.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it doesn't work that way.
Speaker 5: It doesn't. It doesn't, all right. So, Greg, we saw
Speaker 5: that you did a you did a piece in your
Speaker 5: in your solemn on Sunday that our our friend Jack
Speaker 5: Rickard had had passed away. You had some memories of him.
Speaker 5: We all worked with him. Sad to see, you know,
Speaker 5: but you know, we we all get old, right, But
Speaker 5: you know, I just remember those years, you know, working
Speaker 5: with him against him. Uh, everybody was friends, but man,
Speaker 5: we we tried to kill each other every day.
Speaker 6: Yeah, he was. He was such enough big guy. Because,
Speaker 6: as you just said, Jay, the competition was extremely serious
Speaker 6: between the Citizens and the Star, and only a person
Speaker 6: involved in it would know to remain friendly with your
Speaker 6: competitors on the other guy's sports staff. That was you
Speaker 6: had to work at that. And Jack made it. Jack
Speaker 6: made it easy, I thought, because he was he was funny,
Speaker 6: he was upbeat, He liked to talk about funny stuff.
Speaker 6: I mean, he.
Speaker 4: Didn't take himself seriously. He didn't take himself serious.
Speaker 6: That's a good point. That's a good point.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: When I worked, I worked with the Emotion for eighteen years.
Speaker 2: I think it was fifteen years.
Speaker 4: He was that dude.
Speaker 5: You know you smoked like crazy smoke. Let me, I
Speaker 5: smoked because of him, because it was the defense mechanism, right.
Speaker 2: You know, I sat alongside with him and Corky and
Speaker 2: these guys. U good dude, good dude, you know loves
Speaker 2: what he did. He covered loot for a long time.
Speaker 5: Well, well, you know, in a nutshell, the reason I
Speaker 5: liked and I respected Jack was because while I you know,
Speaker 5: we were up against each other and we were trying
Speaker 5: to beat each other's ass every day, he was always
Speaker 5: willing to help you though, and I was you know,
Speaker 5: I was half his age, and he you know, if
Speaker 5: I had a question, it'd helped me. And and uh
Speaker 5: that was great. But then he turned around and beat
Speaker 5: my ass on a story the next day. And that
Speaker 5: to me that I thought, that made me better what
Speaker 5: I was doing.
Speaker 6: That's a good point. He had access to loot that
Speaker 6: nobody else.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that used to piss me of right, That used
Speaker 5: to make me mad because because I not because he
Speaker 5: had it, but because I didn't. Right And and and
Speaker 5: you knew that that one, that's why you were getting
Speaker 5: your butt beat, you know when I was getting my
Speaker 5: butt beat because he did have had a level of
Speaker 5: access that none of us could get.
Speaker 4: You guys had Dick Toby playing.
Speaker 5: Okay, we had that, but he you know again, he
Speaker 5: was you know, he was just fine. He was great
Speaker 5: on the road. You know, you'd have a couple of beers,
Speaker 5: you hang out at the bar with him or whatever.
Speaker 5: You'd be smoking like a chimney and you'd be you'd
Speaker 5: just be having a great time. And I you know,
Speaker 5: and I know, you know there's the reporters today don't
Speaker 5: get that. No, they don't get they don't see that.
Speaker 5: They don't get that.
Speaker 2: And then your thoughts on that. We'll tell him the
Speaker 2: situation on Saturday. I'm sure you already know this. Greg
Speaker 2: t Max has this fantastic game. Uh you're thinking, okay,
Speaker 2: I already kind of write the story or wrote the story.
Speaker 2: And t Max not in the press room.
Speaker 6: It didn't bring him in.
Speaker 5: No, no, no, he didn't come to the press conference.
Speaker 5: Nobody got to talk to him until today or yesterday.
Speaker 6: That would have been like not bringing Sean Elliott in
Speaker 6: the night.
Speaker 5: He broke like that, led like that. Yeah, because you
Speaker 5: know I was telling Steve, you know, I mean, I
Speaker 5: I go to my car after the game, walk to
Speaker 5: the car and I turned on the YouTube, you know,
Speaker 5: to see the press conference. And when I turn it on, uh,
Speaker 5: you know, nor if f is talking and the cameras
Speaker 5: on him. I just assumed that Team AC was going
Speaker 5: to be the other the guy or was was gonna
Speaker 5: be at the table. And he wasn't there, And I'm like,
Speaker 5: what the hell? I even sent a sent a note
Speaker 5: to Steve, I said, what the hell that they? You know,
Speaker 5: the teammate he didn't come to the press conference?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: No, I gave up after they didn't bring him in.
Speaker 2: I said, well, if you guys don't care what the
Speaker 2: ques should I let me let me The other.
Speaker 6: Thing that changed, and this goes back to Ricord too,
Speaker 6: is you always had access in the locker room in
Speaker 6: those days, so you could have gone out and talked
Speaker 6: to the team, act like we went and talked to
Speaker 6: Chuck Cecil that they have one hundred and six yards
Speaker 6: returned to be to su Yeah, I got really great
Speaker 6: stuff from him too.
Speaker 2: Question, so let me ask you, we only have a
Speaker 2: couple of minutes. You're a big time golfer. Now you
Speaker 2: don't do anything but golfer. Who was the better golfer
Speaker 2: you were?
Speaker 6: Jack he was a solid ten to twelve handicap, a lefty.
Speaker 6: He was cagy. But the best thing about him was
Speaker 6: he had all these side games going and he kept
Speaker 6: score on his own scorecard. You had about twenty bets going,
Speaker 6: not twenty, maybe ten. And the fun part was when
Speaker 6: you got done, you went in and had a beer,
Speaker 6: and Jack talied up all the winnings and losings like
Speaker 6: if you got a barkie, if you hit a tree
Speaker 6: and got a par he won ten bucks and stuff
Speaker 6: like that. It was just I looked so forward to
Speaker 6: playing with him because he was upbeat and cheerful and
Speaker 6: he could kick your butt if he didn't play well.
Speaker 6: And every time he said hey, let's play, I couldn't
Speaker 6: wait to play.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw him a couple of years ago. We
Speaker 2: had a citizen party to get together for Christmas, and
Speaker 2: he was you could tell obviously, it was kind of like,
Speaker 2: you know, he compared he had a stroke, he had
Speaker 2: a stroke earlier, and he was, uh, you know, the
Speaker 2: same guy. He kind of tried to be funny and
Speaker 2: he was he was you know, you just smelt you know,
Speaker 2: oh this is Jack.
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, well we miss him. You know, he was
Speaker 5: uh you know, he was. He was, he was not.
Speaker 5: He was a competitor, but also a friend to just
Speaker 5: so many of us. And I you know, I think
Speaker 5: we all had ed greedon you know, Ben. You know
Speaker 5: we're all we're all getting old, Greg, we're all getting old. Man.
Speaker 6: Well hear you, he was, he was. I'm glad he's
Speaker 6: in the Pemac County Sports Hall Fame because he sure
Speaker 6: deserves it.
Speaker 5: Yeah. Well, all right, man, go back to the links. Yeah,
Speaker 5: go hit the links again tomorrow. You think you might
Speaker 5: come back for a game like maybe the Texas Tech
Speaker 5: game or something.

Speaker 4: What's going on?
Speaker 6: Not too much? I want to get on.
Speaker 15: I want to get on this bandwagon about the mouth,
Speaker 15: the Marching Band, you know it. I always thought that
Speaker 15: that was odd that they just mill around and then
Speaker 15: they go forth and get information too, And I really
Speaker 15: I really enjoy the Marching Band. And the thing is
Speaker 15: is the pride of Arizona. Like was it last year
Speaker 15: the year before they won the equivalent of the Marching
Speaker 15: Band Heisman? Yeah, you could only win it once, and
Speaker 15: they want it. I mean it's the band's got a
Speaker 15: lot of history. I mean they played at the first
Speaker 15: super Bowl, THEYM in a Michigan band, they you know,
Speaker 15: and then then we had all these things that they
Speaker 15: weren't supported by the Athletic department and they didn't have
Speaker 15: money and then had to put out albums to try
Speaker 15: to get you know, to try to uh pay for
Speaker 15: uniform arms and things like that, and uh, I just
Speaker 15: I agree with Jay they should make more of a
Speaker 15: production than just their program.
Speaker 5: See that and that. And that's the thing is that,
Speaker 5: you know, create some atmosphere because of the way they
Speaker 5: do it, I believe because of the way they do it,
Speaker 5: they're kind of an afterthought, right, They're they're kind of
Speaker 5: an afterthought. The people, they're not. The people don't hardly
Speaker 5: notice that they're there because they don't create anything. And
Speaker 5: so it's it's it's unfortunate. And you would think that
Speaker 5: they would want to and I don't know why they
Speaker 5: don't do it, but they just don't. And I think it's, well,
Speaker 5: I think we're I think we're the ones that are
Speaker 5: missing out on that. Well.
Speaker 15: Yeah, because when they get started, it's like going through
Speaker 15: a junior high orchestra performance. They're mailing around, bumping into
Speaker 15: each other, and then they line up and they play
Speaker 15: and it's and it's great. Yeah, but there needs to
Speaker 15: be more pageantry, exactly everybody.
Speaker 5: That's the word.
Speaker 15: College sports, college football, it's the it's the pageantry, it's
Speaker 15: it's the whole experience. And they're cutting that off and.
Speaker 5: That's what that's what separates college football from the NFL
Speaker 5: is what you said. The pageantry of college football, you know,
Speaker 5: with its fans and the schools and the tradition. You know,
Speaker 5: NFL is NFL. It's a business. You know, you got
Speaker 5: they have very passionate fans as well, but they're fans
Speaker 5: in a different way than the college fan. And that's
Speaker 5: the perfect word. I'm glad you. I'm glad you came
Speaker 5: up with that. The pageantry. And there's no pageantry to
Speaker 5: football at Arizona State.
Speaker 4: Do you go to games early to watch or care
Speaker 4: or it doesn't matter about the band.
Speaker 6: I like to.
Speaker 15: I like to get into the stadium early and and
Speaker 15: and and hear the band play in the beginning. I
Speaker 15: mean I always I always used to like to sit
Speaker 15: in the in the south end zone because the band
Speaker 15: is right there so they can hear, you know, hear
Speaker 15: them play, and hear the drum line play throughout the
Speaker 15: game and stuff like that. It just makes it more
Speaker 15: It may makes it more fun when you're closer to
Speaker 15: them and you can hear them. I just think it
Speaker 15: adds to the experience.
Speaker 5: There you go, That's that's what it does. That's what
Speaker 5: it does. So anyways, all right, well thank you so much.
Speaker 5: You know, let's get let's get the ball rolling on
Speaker 5: this man, Let's make them do something.
Speaker 6: Yeah, make them march.
Speaker 15: It's not hot enough in those.
Speaker 5: Wolves exactly, exactly. All right, man, Hey, thanks for the call,
Speaker 5: appreciate it.
Speaker 15: Take care, guys.
Speaker 5: So, hey, the the the NFL game is on NBC tomorrow.
Speaker 5: But what the hell are they doing playing a game
Speaker 5: in Brazil? Do you see that?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Yeah, the Packers?
Speaker 5: And who the Packers? What do they even know what
Speaker 5: football is in Brazil?
Speaker 2: Don't sell them short, don't sell them short. They're gonna
Speaker 2: move it more internationally in Mexico more often, I think too.
Speaker 2: I hear you, I hear you. That's you know, you
Speaker 2: are coming in hard. You're grumpy today, you're actually know
Speaker 2: the hold on, you're more grumpy than.
Speaker 5: Usual to Oh wow, I don't think I'm grumpy. I'm
Speaker 5: just like, what the hell are they doing? Why are
Speaker 5: they playing a game in Brazil? Bunny?
Speaker 4: Probably you fand them, I don't know.
Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, because remember when they remember when they
Speaker 5: broke into Europe, right, and it was kind of like, okay,
Speaker 5: what do they know about? But they got to learn right,
Speaker 5: and they've accepted. They go to the games and you see,
Speaker 5: you see those games on TV and the fans are
Speaker 5: they're cheering at the right times and all that kind
Speaker 5: of stuff. You know. Okay, Now you take one down
Speaker 5: to Mexico and you look, you know, and I know,
Speaker 5: Raider fan in Mexico is like crazy. There's lots of
Speaker 5: them down there, so you know there's some an understanding
Speaker 5: of football in Mexico. But Brazil, they're gonna go, wait
Speaker 5: a minute, why are you touching the ball with your hands?
Speaker 4: Telling me he's full bit hitry. You don't have to
Speaker 4: laugh at his jokes.
Speaker 5: It wasn't a joke. That's a not legitimate question.
Speaker 4: You don't have to laugh at his legitimate questions either.
Speaker 4: They'll be fine. You relax. What are you wearing? You
Speaker 4: have more money on this game too? Well, of course
Speaker 4: I will Brazil or no Brazil. No, I don't I
Speaker 4: don't care, I don't care. I'm just wondering. I'm just wondering.
Speaker 5: I mean, I'm gonna losing sleep over there. In fact,
Speaker 5: I didn't know that that game was in Brazil until today.
Speaker 4: Good, good deal on the phone, right now, Yeah, I
Speaker 4: haven't answered this question, you know, just again, just.
Speaker 5: Are we going to I mean, is is you know
Speaker 5: it's football gonna spread to South America like that? I mean,
Speaker 5: they obviously see it as a market or they wouldn't
Speaker 5: be playing it down there. But what kind of a
Speaker 5: market are you gonna have in Brazil where soccer is
Speaker 5: like get out of get out of the way.
Speaker 4: Well, they'll be fine. The curiosities fans will be curious there.
Speaker 4: You know, it is what it is.
Speaker 5: You remember, do you remember you weren't you weren't here?
Speaker 5: Arizona played At the end of the eighty sixth season,
Speaker 5: they played a game football, They played Stanford in Japan.
Speaker 5: I remember that, remember that, and I remember watching the game.
Speaker 5: We stayed up to watch the game, and it was
Speaker 5: like at midnight our time or eleven o'clock our time
Speaker 5: or something like that. But like their music was playing
Speaker 5: throughout the whole game, right even you know, I mean
Speaker 5: what plays were going on.
Speaker 4: It's like the Mexican baseball.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it was like that, the music, because that's
Speaker 5: how it isn't in in Japanese baseball, Korean baseball. They've
Speaker 5: got music and stuff like that going on at all times.
Speaker 5: And that's how the football game was and we're like
Speaker 5: we're watching on TV. We're going like, what are they doing?
Speaker 5: But that's you know, it's just different. But I just
Speaker 5: wonder what the atmosphere will be like in a football
Speaker 5: game in Brazil and how many fans there really know
Speaker 5: what's going on or what will.
Speaker 4: Be Yeah, well, they'll have fun there, they'll have fun.
