Speaker 2: Hey, welcome back to I on the Ball hero Fox
Speaker 2: Sports fourteen fifty. I'm Steve, He's Jay, and now we
Speaker 2: have Henry with breaking news.
Speaker 1: This is I on the Ball Breaking News on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports fourteen fifty.
Speaker 3: Team USA men's basketball defeated South Sudan one oh three
Speaker 3: to eighty six in their second game, and bam Adebayo
Speaker 3: led the way with eighteen points.
Speaker 4: I watched a bunch of that game at lunch, and
Speaker 4: I think I think US was a twenty nine and
Speaker 4: a half point favorite. I thought about taking it. I didn't.
Speaker 4: You just didn't ever feel like they were in total
Speaker 4: control of that game, you know, at least in terms
Speaker 4: of in terms of how in control you should be
Speaker 4: if you're a thirty point favorite.
Speaker 2: So so I don't think they've been in control of
Speaker 2: any of those games they played, like major, major control
Speaker 2: of those times.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 2: I don't think they've covered it well.
Speaker 4: And maybe that's a good thing, right They're they're keeping
Speaker 4: their attention.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, or maybe not or maybe not? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't know. I haven't paid attention.
Speaker 4: Uh Sasu Dan was they were pesky, right, We talked
Speaker 4: about how they they just they just had hands everywhere, right. Yeah,
Speaker 4: And and uh.
Speaker 2: I guess Louell dang is the sponsor of that team.
Speaker 2: Is that's why? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, Henry, he's like paid for all their equipment and
Speaker 3: all like the facilities.
Speaker 4: They play in.
Speaker 2: Yeah, which is cool.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So And the only reason I knew that because I
Speaker 2: guess Gilbert A. Reenas kind of got on him and
Speaker 2: then kind of went back back tracked. It was a
Speaker 2: it was a pesky game. Uh, that's what you have
Speaker 2: to do to Arizona. Arizona US say, you have to
Speaker 2: annoy them. Right, Clearly they were annoying the hell out
Speaker 2: of them. Yeah, and uh, they were in it, you know.
Speaker 4: And and I think I think they got up like
Speaker 4: nineteen or twenty, and I'm like, Okay, they're gonna pull away,
Speaker 4: and they never did. And then all of a sudden,
Speaker 4: I look up and they're up twelve. I'm like, if
Speaker 4: they get it under ten, who knows what happened?
Speaker 2: I misspoke about the Ore's other thing with you team,
Speaker 2: you say, but if you're a coach, and you play Arisuona.
Speaker 2: What do you do you have to make it look ugly?
Speaker 4: Yeah, you hold the ball.
Speaker 2: You play a zone. You don't let them do what
Speaker 2: they do. Run hello Clemson.
Speaker 4: Yeah. On the other hand, I'm gonna I may throw
Speaker 4: all kinds of money on the women's team because they're
Speaker 4: really good and they're just better than everybody else by
Speaker 4: a lot.
Speaker 3: Us women's soccer defeated Australia two to one to advance
Speaker 3: to the quarterfinals, where they will play Japan.
Speaker 4: Now, now they're supposed to win it, right, their favorite
Speaker 4: to win it. Yes, okay, so they better then they
Speaker 4: better go beat Japan. Yeah, no, you know, good, good
Speaker 4: for them. What's the score? Second?
Speaker 2: Two to one?
Speaker 4: Two one? Okay.
Speaker 3: And in the same tournament, Canada has made the quarterfinals
Speaker 3: in women's soccer despite losing six points in the tournament
Speaker 3: because of a drone spine.
Speaker 4: Oh that's right, that's right.
Speaker 2: That comes from the you're looking at us practice. We've
Speaker 2: gotta figure out that makes no sense to me. We
Speaker 2: talked about this with Mike Stoop Shimmers. They thought somebody
Speaker 2: on Sixth Street was filming. Let's just play my guys
Speaker 2: against you guys.
Speaker 4: I don't care.
Speaker 2: They know what we're doing. We're gonna kick your ass.
Speaker 2: We're dressed better, but you can't do that. Steve, you know,
Speaker 2: I get it, I get it.
Speaker 4: But still, doctor Jim Harbaugh over in Michigan, is that
Speaker 4: one of your when you're breaking these things. Because supposedly
Speaker 4: the notice of allegations, the letter of now notice whatever
Speaker 4: in l A, the notice of allegations were supposedly coming
Speaker 4: out on on Notre Dame. They're expecting some level I mean,
Speaker 4: Michigan are expecting some level one violations against them. They're
Speaker 4: expecting some level one violations against Connor or whatever his
Speaker 4: name is, the guy who was doing the spine Connor stallions.
Speaker 4: And then there's then there's a couple of other things.
Speaker 4: Think about this, Okay, there's a softball player making a
Speaker 4: million dollars a year. Well, they're suppose going to allege
Speaker 4: that a football assistant gave a ride do an athlete somewhere,
Speaker 4: and another football assistant bought a meal and gave a
Speaker 4: ride doing that. So they're still gonna punish him for that.
Speaker 2: You got a misdemeanor. But the murder over there is okay, we'll.
Speaker 4: Give you twenty years for the I don't know what
Speaker 4: to say to that. You know, you go, you go.
Speaker 4: I get it. At the time, that was the rule
Speaker 4: and they broke the rule. But don't you look a
Speaker 4: little silly? You know. Yes, it's like it's like it's
Speaker 4: like it's like Walmart saying, okay, everybody, come in and
Speaker 4: take whatever you want and it doesn't cost you anything.
Speaker 4: But you whose shop lifted yesterday, we're gonna arrescue.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to rescind a speeding ticket that when I
Speaker 2: was scoring seventy seven. I'm joking, of course, but you
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, back in the day, when you win,
Speaker 2: can you fix this ticket? It's okay now?
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah exactly.
Speaker 3: US women lost to Azerbaijan and three v three basketball
Speaker 3: and fall to H and two and pool play despite
Speaker 3: being the favorite.
Speaker 2: Wow, DUTs and women right play and let me they're

Speaker 3: falling short of matching or surpassing their civil silver Metal performances.
Speaker 4: Day off to a bad start there. They were last
Speaker 4: place after their first die. Oh I didn't see it.
Speaker 4: I just I followed. Ryan Peterson stayed up and watched
Speaker 4: it and was tweeting a thread.
Speaker 2: No he the dude's inn uber drivers work had been here.
Speaker 2: Don't sleep. So that happened.
Speaker 4: Yesterday, two o'clock this morning, this morning. So she's going no,
Speaker 4: now she's got a she's in the individual ten meters.
Speaker 2: She's like our kid, What are you talking about?
Speaker 4: I know, I'm I'm upset. I'm not gonna lie before
Speaker 4: even when I woke up, before I even got up
Speaker 4: and went to the bathroom, looked, I was looking on
Speaker 4: Twitter to see how she did.
Speaker 2: Wow, that's a surprise.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, they got They got off to a bad start.
Speaker 4: They were last place after the first dive, got a
Speaker 4: couple of good dives in but just could never could
Speaker 4: never catch up.
Speaker 3: Justin overall Metal update, US leads with thirty medals, but
Speaker 3: only five of them being gold. France and second with
Speaker 3: twenty six, and China third with nineteen.
Speaker 4: Who's got the most goals?
Speaker 2: I think it was France the most golds. Thought it
Speaker 2: was I saw it. It was in China.
Speaker 3: Well you saw it China's nine franch So I went.
Speaker 2: To with my guys yesterday after work after here and
Speaker 2: then we talked about, Oh, who's you on the show?
Speaker 2: I said, we have trying Bush Farmer, US Olympic Swimming
Speaker 2: coach show. Did you talk about the China controversy? And
Speaker 2: I'm taking China controversy? Have you seen this where I
Speaker 2: guess the New York Times did a study or a
Speaker 2: big story expose a on the Chinese failing drug tests
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty one, twenty two, and now they're looking
Speaker 2: into it. I think they're looking into it and they're
Speaker 2: exposing all this drug cheating, right, but the the USOC
Speaker 2: doesn't want them to because because they just don't want
Speaker 2: them to. And they said, well, if this comes out,
Speaker 2: we may take away the Utah Olympics. Oh yeah, So
Speaker 2: they don't want to talk about it, don't even want
Speaker 2: to deal with it. He sent me a story about
Speaker 2: it and I saw it's on You couldn't find on ESPN,
Speaker 2: but if you searched it on AP that was the story.
Speaker 2: It was like from two or three years ago. And
Speaker 2: they don't want anything to be involved with these Olympics
Speaker 2: crazy because this right, that's exactly it didn't Back in
Speaker 2: the day. All the executives were the main people taking
Speaker 2: the bribes and taking the blah blah blah.
Speaker 4: I mean, they didn't let the Russians in the Olympics
Speaker 4: because because of all that stuff. Yeah, of all that stuff.
Speaker 4: Did you have any other Olympics stuff?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 3: I have one more thing.
Speaker 4: Okay, oh wait, let me, let me. I got an
Speaker 4: Olympic women's volleyball, the indoor volleyball. They they won in
Speaker 4: five sets, but they won the first two they were playing.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say Lithuania, one of the aneas who.
Speaker 2: Said that correctly.
Speaker 4: See see if you find out who they played. Went
Speaker 4: up to nothing. We're kicking their asses, and then all
Speaker 4: of a sudden it all went south and and so
Speaker 4: then they then they lose to and then they go
Speaker 4: to the the you know, the last set, it's always
Speaker 4: it's up to fifteen. They went extra I think it
Speaker 4: was seventeen fifteen was the final or eighteen sixteen or
Speaker 4: something like that. So they scrapped and had to hang
Speaker 4: on to win that.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, and then the chase is still playing right
Speaker 2: one and one, he's.
Speaker 4: One he's one one. I would imagine he's got one
Speaker 4: coming up, maybe tonight, Yeah, probably, Yeah, I just had.
Speaker 3: The White Sox are currently on a seventeen game losing
Speaker 3: street twenty seven and eighty four, on pace for one
Speaker 3: of the worst seasons in MLB history.
Speaker 4: No, on pace for the worst season.
Speaker 3: And I saw in history early nineteen.
Speaker 4: Because they're what what did they what the sixty two
Speaker 4: Mets won?
Speaker 3: It said forty and forty and one?
Speaker 4: Yeah, two, Oh my god. Yeah, they're they're in the end.
Speaker 4: They traded away out there a bunch of their guys, right,
Speaker 4: didn't didn't they?
Speaker 2: Who's the manager? But he doesn't want to them.
Speaker 4: But they have never even heard of never even heard.
Speaker 2: They were bad at the beginning. I guess they wont
Speaker 2: some games and all of a sudden they've gone.
Speaker 4: So yeah, man, that's that they're. Yeah, they're historically bad,
Speaker 4: historically bad. So when look, you and I grew up, right,
Speaker 4: when they say sixty two Mets, you think bad, very bad,
Speaker 4: very bad. And they're saying these guys may be worse,
Speaker 4: which would be which would be nuts if they're worse.
Speaker 4: Ye all right, man, okay, so you know, are you
Speaker 4: watching much of the Olympics, Steve.
Speaker 2: I saw some last night, the women's gymnastics, of course,
Speaker 2: and then I guess there's always shade. There's always shade
Speaker 2: on something. I don't know what the hell shade means,
Speaker 2: shade by some of the wiles ripping into a former
Speaker 2: teammate and we were not lazy yet.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well there was a former teammates said that they
Speaker 4: were lazy and stuff and she said, okay, is this late?
Speaker 2: I saw that, but you can't say it until guess
Speaker 2: what exactly exactly?
Speaker 4: Hey have you? There's been some funny stuff. So they've
Speaker 4: had some funny stuff with Snoop Dogg in the air
Speaker 4: Zona Bowl. He's getting some run out of this. But
Speaker 4: Snoop Dogg, there's all these they're they're they're they're putting
Speaker 4: clips of various sports and Snoop Dogg doing commentary on
Speaker 4: Have you seen those? I saw the Okay, there's a
Speaker 4: badminton one. Then there was an equestrian one, which is
Speaker 4: funny as hell. Those are really funny. Is he doing
Speaker 4: those live? Or is that something that they're just putting out.
Speaker 4: He's there, I know he's there. I don't know, but
Speaker 4: I'm asking is he doing that commentary live on one
Speaker 4: of the channels, or are they just doing it and
Speaker 4: then posting on social media because it's funny as hell. Look,
Speaker 4: I'm not never been a big Snoop Dogg fan, only
Speaker 4: because I don't I don't like rap. He's certainly changed
Speaker 4: his his image and persona. He's funny, he's entertaining. It
Speaker 4: was a really funny thing. I saw a thing that said,
Speaker 4: would you ever imagined that we're here in twenty twenty
Speaker 4: four and the two most wholesome guys out on social
Speaker 4: media right now are Snoop Dogg and Flavor. Flavor change.
Speaker 4: The times have change, but he's been entertained, you know,
Speaker 4: and those things are coming up now and I'm hoping
Speaker 4: they do some more. But the Badmint one was hilarious.
Speaker 4: I saw that, Yo, look at you know, go there,
Speaker 4: go there, Go there, go there. Yeah, that was And
Speaker 4: then he did he did in the question where I
Speaker 4: think it's fassage where the horse is actually kind of
Speaker 4: kind of dancing right, and he was and he was
Speaker 4: doing some commentary to that. It was pretty dark.
Speaker 2: Find well, they have him, and they have Colin Jokest.
Speaker 2: I guess he's doing surfing all his comedians. I guess
Speaker 2: Kelly Clarkson is doing some something. So NBC is losing
Speaker 2: we see talent is losing job jobs to the.
Speaker 4: All right, well, I just got another note from Nick.
Speaker 4: They're still trying to he's on the phone with the engineers.
Speaker 4: They're still trying to figure it out.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, we need two minutes here.
Speaker 4: We need him in about five minutes.
Speaker 2: Two minutes here and then wait for.
Speaker 4: For hopefully we'll get hunch. All right, now, let's not
Speaker 4: take her. But I'm having fun, you know. And there's
Speaker 4: so many channels now to watch. You can watch anything
Speaker 4: you want because you get up in the morning. There's
Speaker 4: some on NBC, there's some on USA, there's someone on

Speaker 4: stuff in there. And if something you want to see
Speaker 4: and it's going on, you can you can watch it.
Speaker 4: And I think it's pretty cool. It's been fun.
Speaker 2: The time difference, what is the actual.
Speaker 4: Eight hours or eight hours ahead of us?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's how it was in Australia. Is it anti
Speaker 2: climatic when they show it like tonight and it's all used.
Speaker 4: Sometimes, you know, like for instance, I didn't get to
Speaker 4: I didn't get to watch much of the women's gymnastics.
Speaker 4: I saw a little bit of it. That was yesterday, right, Yeah,
Speaker 4: so I watched a little bit of it yesterday. But
Speaker 4: I wanted to see some more of it, so I
Speaker 4: watched it. You know, I watched some of it last night.
Speaker 4: So even though you know what happened, you're still you're
Speaker 4: still interested in seeing what it looked like. So I
Speaker 4: do that. I do that sometimes, and it depends on sport.
Speaker 4: But you know, I was watching the Dodgers lose another
Speaker 4: crap game last night. Blew another blew another huge lead.
Speaker 4: They're driving me crazy.
Speaker 2: Steve to Dodgers, Well, Baltimore too. It's it's weird how
Speaker 2: they we're doing well now because we're pitching.
Speaker 4: Baltimore's pitching to Dodger's pitching is horrible. They blew another
Speaker 4: five to nothing lead. There are five to nothing in
Speaker 4: the first and they couldn't hang on and lost it

Speaker 4: a desk at the Arizona Daily Star or even a TEP,
Speaker 4: my desk was always semi clean. It would get out

Speaker 4: clean it up a little bit. You're spot over there,
Speaker 4: spot have you know? I had to sit there a
Speaker 4: couple of days last.
Speaker 2: Week and what did you take? I thought, don't touch it?
Speaker 4: Yeah, well I remember I threw away your sheet one
Speaker 4: time and you were like, what the hell, where's my sheet?
Speaker 4: So that sheet that you got right there, I left
Speaker 4: it there.
Speaker 2: Don't touch my sheet?
Speaker 4: Yet you had like three years worth of media guides
Speaker 4: over there.
Speaker 2: That's where.
Speaker 4: They. Yeah, some old draft kings, uh, endorsement scripts, wrist crackers,
Speaker 4: a mouse that a prehistoric mouse, a wired don't forget.
Speaker 2: The important part of the kids are interns? Resumes?
Speaker 4: Is that what those are?
Speaker 2: Because I look at it, it's Henry today.
Speaker 4: What's the hat. What's the hat with the number thirty nine?
Speaker 2: It was a gift that tour. I have no idea
Speaker 2: what was the thirty nine out tours? I had no
Speaker 2: just just just the hat. I don't know, all right.
Speaker 4: And then there's some you what, Ryan Ma, there's some
Speaker 4: ketchup and some ranch dressing, a couple of plastic forks,
Speaker 4: some ibuprofen, and a couple of q T cups, but
Speaker 4: no hot tomorrow, disappoint Those are the car in the
Speaker 4: car all right?
Speaker 2: Those aren't mine? Thought the Windy's butter spread. Now we're
Speaker 2: telling we're running out of time, so I'm not sure.
Speaker 2: We probably won't have it.
Speaker 4: We got another segment to do, you know, we got Troy.
Speaker 2: Sorry, Sorry, We're still gonna work on it. So maybe
Speaker 2: we get them tomorrow for like a short segment to
Speaker 2: talk about the first two I mean practices.
Speaker 4: Right, Look, there's only so much you know, you're gonna
Speaker 4: get from What's what you're looking for when you go
Speaker 4: out there? At least what I would look for when
Speaker 4: you know, was who's there? Who's not right? You know
Speaker 4: it's even that it's you know, you can't even put
Speaker 4: a lot of stock in Who's with the ones. Who's
Speaker 4: with you? Just know that NOFA is the number one quarterback?
Speaker 4: Who's he throwing the ball to? You know, t Max
Speaker 4: not not not practicing? So who's in that slot for now?
Speaker 4: Because you're trying, you're trying to get an idea, but
Speaker 4: there's not a lot to you. You're not gonna know
Speaker 4: are you good or are you not? Based on what
Speaker 4: you see over there? I mean, you know again, you
Speaker 4: know Jed Fish's first year, it looked like they had
Speaker 4: some players and then you realize that it was a struggle.
Speaker 4: And you know their quarterback. What's the guy's name again,
Speaker 4: that's tall dude, Gunner Gunnar Cruise. Yeah, your your guy
Speaker 4: looked like an he was an airport quarterback man. He
Speaker 4: was he looks he looks so good in a football uniform.
Speaker 2: That's that's a you thing. That's a you thing. Yeah, Oh,
Speaker 2: it looked good in uniform. Give me the trush uniform.
Speaker 2: With a guy who could throw, It's like the guy
Speaker 2: from L s U. A guy could throw a mile.
Speaker 2: You don't need to throw a mile ten yards. I
Speaker 2: just throw it to there, just get it in his heads.
Speaker 2: That's all.
Speaker 4: Just throw it to there.
Speaker 2: But boy, could he throw a mile?
Speaker 4: So anyways, did you see, okay, going back to the Olympic,
Speaker 4: did you see how much katiele deck he won the
Speaker 4: fifteen hundred.
Speaker 2: No, I saw that she crushed it though there's there's.
Speaker 4: A picture of her hitting the finish line and there's
Speaker 4: nobody else in the picture. Okay, So then somebody's making
Speaker 4: fun of the ACC because they're claiming her as a
Speaker 4: as a gold medal winning athlete out of the ACC
Speaker 4: because she's from cal Oh.
Speaker 2: Oh, that's funny. That's funny.
Speaker 4: People are going stop, yeah, stop doing that.
Speaker 2: That's funny. Did you see something yesterday or this morning?
Speaker 2: The guy from England or somewhere, all these things in swimming,
Speaker 2: all of a sudden he got this. He was England Gribbin.
Speaker 2: I think he he won his heat, he won a
Speaker 2: silver or bronze in the Tokyo. He was disqualified because
Speaker 2: he stayed underwater too long before he came up, before
Speaker 2: he came out. Yeah, you know you know what he
Speaker 2: does rule. I didn't know about that, and I didn't
Speaker 2: know about in the shallow pools.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Oh that has become a thing.
Speaker 2: Shallow pools.
Speaker 4: Yes, it's all over social media because there's no way.
Speaker 4: There's been no world records broken. And there you know
Speaker 4: what what Frank Bush talked about yesterday exactly. I saw
Speaker 4: it all over social media, you know, s I and
Speaker 4: and ESPN. They're all doing stories on it now, explaining
Speaker 4: that that it has to do with well, if a
Speaker 4: shallow pool, but when when the people jumping pull, it's
Speaker 4: the it's the the movement and the waves from people
Speaker 4: swimming all at once faster making them slowing them down.
Speaker 2: Oh so you say the shallow pool.
Speaker 4: The shallower pool, the reverberation from the swimming and the
Speaker 4: and the movement is stronger at the surface. Okay, because
Speaker 4: you know you can feel it, you can feel it more,
Speaker 4: which is slowing down the swimmers because they're they're they're
Speaker 4: having to they're having to swim through more movement in
Speaker 4: the water and stuff like that.
Speaker 2: It makes it makes sense. I guess which I would
Speaker 2: if you would have put this a B C D
Speaker 2: on the thing. No, that's stupid, that's not it. You
Speaker 2: know whatever. But you know, I'll give you this. I'll
Speaker 2: give you this because we see it in basketball that Wasona.
Speaker 2: The team's played with this basketball, right, the normal basketball
Speaker 2: and then they switch it to in the tournament, they
Speaker 2: switcher to that bouncing damn thing.
Speaker 4: And that real orange thing, real orange thing, and it's
Speaker 4: it looks different and and it bounces different.
Speaker 2: And Arizona has suffered twice now with that basketball. In fact,
Speaker 2: h it was a big deal last year and then
Speaker 2: this past year. Tommy brought it up right away because
Speaker 2: they don't play with that ball all ye, which makes
Speaker 2: no sense. Why would you switch the ball?
Speaker 4: Did he did? He say, there has to be some
Speaker 4: sort of a everybody used the same ball through the
Speaker 4: whole year, but you Arizona uses Nike ball. Somebody's got
Speaker 4: in thedeed it's contract, right, but he's got what a
Speaker 4: Spalding contract or any one of these make.
Speaker 2: Just look at the percentages. Everybody was shooting poorly because
Speaker 2: it bounced more.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean like Major League Baseball uses one ball.
Speaker 4: You know the NBA uses one ball, right.
Speaker 2: It's it's an issue. It's an issue. Is an issue.
Speaker 2: The first time that you did it last year was
Speaker 2: an issue. Arizona suffer through. It's through. It's you know,
Speaker 2: Clemson ha deal with it. Two And then you saw
Speaker 2: was it Arizona was that wherever they played Arizona where
Speaker 2: the court was different. The three point line you see.
Speaker 4: In the in the tournament. No, no, it was the
Speaker 4: first run. Yeah, it was the first round n C
Speaker 4: double A tournament. It was in the first or was
Speaker 4: it the first four?
Speaker 2: No, I think it was the first round.
Speaker 4: It was a women's It was a women's first four.
Speaker 2: Okay that that. The three point line was different, different
Speaker 2: from both sides one side. Hey, but some people are
Speaker 2: making millions of dollars playing the.
Speaker 4: Game doing stuff. Man. Uh, all right, but no, I
Speaker 4: I am you know, I'm I'm. I mean, I didn't
Speaker 4: think I would pay a lot of attention to these Olympics.
Speaker 4: And I don't know why. I you know, I was
Speaker 4: one of those guys who I loved it when it
Speaker 4: was the amateurs, right uh and and it was it
Speaker 4: was fair and it was across the board, and you
Speaker 4: know you didn't but you know, like I don't watch
Speaker 4: as much of the track as I used to. Track
Speaker 4: was the sports. It was the sport for I couldn't
Speaker 4: wait for the track to start. It's kind of like, okay,
Speaker 4: you know, not not a big guy. I watched. I
Speaker 4: watch a lot of the other stuff. As you said,
Speaker 4: the other day swimming is exciting because the guys that
Speaker 4: are are calling it with Dan Hickson was the other guy?
Speaker 2: Oh that guy? Yeah, I know who. I know who
Speaker 2: you're talking about. He's been there forever.
Speaker 4: I don't remember.
Speaker 2: So let me ask you now that we're just going
Speaker 2: off topic. Do you do you drink wine?
Speaker 4: I'm a white wine drink.
Speaker 2: Did your did you drink coin?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Drink most women kind of that's what they drink. So
Speaker 2: I was just saying, uh, there's a there's a winery,
Speaker 2: a popular winery. I lost the story. H is going
Speaker 2: bankrupt because people are drinking less wine? Really, yeah, what.
Speaker 4: Are they drinking?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 4: There thinking something.

Speaker 4: that's interesting, like both both types of wine.
Speaker 2: Or a wine California Wine is going bankrupt, is going
Speaker 2: to declare for bankruptcy. The reason is people aren't drinking
Speaker 2: enough of it.
Speaker 4: And no, you're just sucking marketing. That's what that's the
Speaker 4: issue there.
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know if you. All I
Speaker 2: know is women the last five ten years, that's all
Speaker 2: they did. Now Friday, go for a wild glass of wine.

Speaker 4: I mean, you know, you can've talked about some different stuff.
Speaker 2: I need to see you grade yourself on a test
Speaker 2: that was an easy grader for yourself. Okay, he's gonna
Speaker 2: call us in a second. It's okay, here we go,
Speaker 2: h Troy, is this you?
Speaker 13: Yes, it is.
Speaker 2: Just got the news back on what's his last name?
Speaker 4: Hutchison? I finally corrected him, Troy. I know he's but
Speaker 4: he's been butchering that for a long time. I finally
Speaker 4: couldn't take it anymore today. I said, there's no end
Speaker 4: in your last name. Oh well till the end.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 13: It always. It only took most of Arizona, like probably,
Speaker 13: like you know, two years to get.
Speaker 2: That right now.
Speaker 4: So we got it.
Speaker 2: So how was Day one in your eyes? Troy?
Speaker 13: You know, I thought Day one was a little bit
Speaker 13: more energetic than years past in terms of not being
Speaker 13: on the field, but in terms of the action on
Speaker 13: the field, with eleven on eleven drills, seven on seven
Speaker 13: drills and red zone drills as well. Usually coaches kind
Speaker 13: of eased the team into that first couple of days,
Speaker 13: but uh, you know, Brett Brennan and his staff hit
Speaker 13: the ground running, no contact yet, but we got to
Speaker 13: see a lot of action out there on the field today.
Speaker 4: So okay, obviously, you know, one of the big questions
Speaker 4: was team, what's what's he doing? And what is he
Speaker 4: physically doing out there? Is he just on the sidelines,
Speaker 4: is he running? Is he what's he doing?
Speaker 13: Yeah? Right now t mac is on the sideline, fully suited,
Speaker 13: but not participating in any drills, even on physition drills
Speaker 13: as well. He's just working with the strength coaches on
Speaker 13: his agility drills and kind of going full steam with that.
Speaker 13: But looks good. Has put some weight on that foot
Speaker 13: and on those you know, lower leg areas, so it
Speaker 13: looks like it's all moving in a positive direction. But
Speaker 13: when you're dealing with a star player like that who's
Speaker 13: incredibly important to his team, they're probably going to proceed
Speaker 13: with caution.
Speaker 2: So what about Palito? Because rah, what do we hear? Yeah?
Speaker 2: What was the vibe? What was the vibe when you
Speaker 2: first realized he's not there? And then his reaction was
Speaker 2: very stern or whatever.
Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, when we first realized that Raymond Polino
Speaker 13: wasn't there, we all kind of thought immediately it was
Speaker 13: probably an injury, because Raymond has been a player that
Speaker 13: has had injury issues throughout his time at Arizona, i'llbeit short.
Speaker 13: So we didn't really think anything of it given that
Speaker 13: he withdrew his name from the transfer portal. But once
Speaker 13: he talked to Brennan about it and him saying he
Speaker 13: will be quote unquote unavailable for the season, that's probably
Speaker 13: not very good for Arizona. And usually when it is
Speaker 13: an injury situation, you know, they'll say something like, oh,
Speaker 13: he's banged up a little bit and we're just evaluating that.
Speaker 13: But there was none of that. It was just he's unavailable,
Speaker 13: and he left it at that and said he would
Speaker 13: give details later. So I don't necessarily think it's an injury.
Speaker 13: But really it's really open and up in the air.
Speaker 2: Well. One of the things is his dad is is
Speaker 2: usually on on Twitter or whatever social I don't think
Speaker 2: I've seen his name out there in a while.
Speaker 13: You know, he hasn't tweeted out anything since I want
Speaker 13: to say July first, So that's one time for him
Speaker 13: given the fact that you know, he was in the
Speaker 13: transfer portal, they were, you know, kind of feeling out
Speaker 13: if they were going to stay at Arizona or if
Speaker 13: they were going to move on to a different situation.
Speaker 13: You have to believe that possibly it is that, but
Speaker 13: you know, you just never know with college football players
Speaker 13: and really college athletes nowadays, whether it's an il and
Speaker 13: transfer or you know, we saw a softball I think
Speaker 13: it was Izy Paco who took some time off for
Speaker 13: mental health reasons and came back to the team and
Speaker 13: succeeded there. You just really don't know what the state
Speaker 13: of college athletes, what it could be. It could be
Speaker 13: a multitude of things, and the.
Speaker 4: Temptation to speculate, but you're right, you know, in light
Speaker 4: of some of those issues like that, like you just said,
Speaker 4: maybe you know, it's best that we just say, okay,
Speaker 4: you know, let us know when you know, and we
Speaker 4: just know that he's not there, and that's all that's
Speaker 4: all we can well all we can say. Interesting, So
Speaker 4: is there do you see a difference or can you
Speaker 4: tell you said there was some eleven on eleven you know,
Speaker 4: Dwayne Keena talked about the fact that they're going to
Speaker 4: be more vertical on the defensive line. They're gonna try
Speaker 4: and get into the backfield. Did you see signs of
Speaker 4: that already? Can you tell?
Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, they're definitely more aggressive. I felt like
Speaker 13: last season Johnny mansen defensive style was really let's kind
Speaker 13: of plug those holes and let our linebackers go to
Speaker 13: work and be kind of like a stable defense. That way,
Speaker 13: they're getting after the quarterback today. I think they had
Speaker 13: about three to four sacks between the two first stands
Speaker 13: than cond units, so they were really going after the quarterback.
Speaker 7: Now.
Speaker 13: They are undersize compared to years past, but you have
Speaker 13: a lot of really good athletes out there that they
Speaker 13: can mix and match inside and outside. So I think
Speaker 13: it's gonna bode well for the system that and Tina
Speaker 13: wants to run.
Speaker 4: Here here's a question, go going back to t Mac
Speaker 4: with him out, somebody's getting reps that they might not
Speaker 4: be getting right. So, I mean, look, you want him
Speaker 4: on the field, but if you're not, there's still some
Speaker 4: good that can come out of it.
Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, and you saw Montana Lamonious Craig being
Speaker 13: the number one receiver right now, and that kind of
Speaker 13: makes sense. He's kind of slotted in that number two
Speaker 13: receiver spot, but he saw guys like aj Jones have
Speaker 13: a good practice today. Malachi Riley had a really good
Speaker 13: practice today. And to me, those are the guys that
Speaker 13: are right now separated themselves from the rest and that
Speaker 13: it's kind of the same way during spring practice. But
Speaker 13: if you can get those guys reps and get them
Speaker 13: in first and second team situations, it's going to be
Speaker 13: good for Arizona. And this staff seems to want to
Speaker 13: use more receivers than just three like the previous staff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, anything that you hope to see that you didn't.
Speaker 13: One thing that I want to see is Cavon Darton,
Speaker 13: that transfer from Syracuse. You know, he was not really
Speaker 13: able to go today. I don't think he got into
Speaker 13: the drin. He's kind of working on the side. But
Speaker 13: he's an undersized defensive tackle around I want to say
Speaker 13: two seventy six foot two, you know, kind of undersized there,
Speaker 13: but very aggressive player. And I remember watching a couple
Speaker 13: of games where Syracuse was playing Clemson and he created
Speaker 13: problems for the Tigers and really got in the backfield.
Speaker 13: So that's the guy if they can get him going
Speaker 13: and get him healthy and ready for the season. They
Speaker 13: can plug in the d tackle, put him out edge,
Speaker 13: and that just gives him another versatile guy on the
Speaker 13: defensive line.
Speaker 2: So I think you were there when I was there,
Speaker 2: when you're talking to Gonzales with an ass and just
Speaker 2: to blow right, because I think that we saw him too.
Speaker 2: You know, you come on the scene, you like, who
Speaker 2: in the heck is this guy? He's built like a Donnis.
Speaker 2: But what's the point if you can't get on the
Speaker 2: field and be productive. I think you asked him that, right,
Speaker 2: What do you expect from him?
Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, I think we're going to see more
Speaker 13: of a centered focus justin flow. You know, he's one
Speaker 13: of those players that back in the nineties and early
Speaker 13: two thousands ThEC ball and you want to go hit
Speaker 13: the ball. That's just really not how the linebacking position
Speaker 13: works anymore, with how the game's change, and they're kind
Speaker 13: of reeling them in and getting them used to pass
Speaker 13: coverage and you've seen them develop at that. But if
Speaker 13: you can get a little bit more realed in, Arizona's
Speaker 13: going to have a really good backup linebacker behind Manu
Speaker 13: and Tay Brown.
Speaker 4: We're talking to Troy Hodson Easycats dot Com. Uh, Troy,
Speaker 4: how different does it look or does it look different
Speaker 4: from you know what we saw with Jed. I think
Speaker 4: no Fafida said it.
Speaker 13: You know it's different, it's different, but it really has
Speaker 13: the same vibe in terms of the family atmosphere, the
Speaker 13: kind of I don't want to say happy, go lucky,
Speaker 13: but kind of easy vibe to it of understanding what
Speaker 13: the goal is. You know, it's a lot of the
Speaker 13: same guys. Yes, there's some different verbiage and different coaching
Speaker 13: founds out there right now, but you can tell that
Speaker 13: this team's been very much the center focusing on one
Speaker 13: mindset and same with the coaching staff. So it seems
Speaker 13: to be a cohesive unit right now. But again, we're
Speaker 13: only in day one of practice.
Speaker 2: So I asked Jadas before we started, Well, we started
Speaker 2: the show earlier this today. Who's the more Who's more
Speaker 2: important to this team? T Mac or Noah or well
Speaker 2: that's it, who's the more important?
Speaker 13: No so Fida, because I think anytime you talk about
Speaker 13: the quarter position in football, if you don't have one,
Speaker 13: you're gonna severely miss one. So you know, the top
Speaker 13: receiver is great, but receivers can I don't want to
Speaker 13: say it can be replaced, but you can subsidize it
Speaker 13: with quality talent there where. If you don't have a quarterback,
Speaker 13: it doesn't matter what you have out there on the
Speaker 13: football field if you can't get the ball, pass downfield
Speaker 13: or get the play off. So no, it does a
Speaker 13: great job of really being that leader out there on
Speaker 13: the football field. And he's what makes are as untick.
Speaker 4: Do you in the in the postgame pressure when he
Speaker 4: was up at the table, is there is there? Can
Speaker 4: you tell? Is there another year of maturity there? Or
Speaker 4: was he is? He kind of like the same guy
Speaker 4: he was last year.
Speaker 13: To me, he's very much the same guy as he
Speaker 13: was last year. And I think that is a mature player.
Speaker 13: I've said it several times when he first came in
Speaker 13: at Arizona. I've never seen a freshman be able to
Speaker 13: read a field, control an offense, and make smart decisions
Speaker 13: downfield as well, even when it meant throwing away the
Speaker 13: football and not forcing it. He's just a highly intelligent
Speaker 13: football player that is a very team and family oriented guy,
Speaker 13: and he knows how to pull players with him and
Speaker 13: put them in the right direction. So I think Arizona
Speaker 13: has a mature leader that's only going to get better
Speaker 13: throughout the season.
Speaker 2: I totally agree. I totally agree. Just a level headed dude,
Speaker 2: makes good decisions and more importantly, he gets other people
Speaker 2: to play hard for him.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 13: No, it's incredible to watch. Again. You know, Arizona has
Speaker 13: had a lot of underclassman freshmen and guy you know,
Speaker 13: starting at center, and you could see growing things, and yes,
Speaker 13: he's gonna have growing games, but there it all seems
Speaker 13: to be very calm, and there's a calmness about him
Speaker 13: that I haven't seen.
Speaker 4: So does the same with Polito not being available? What
Speaker 4: does that do off Are they just gonna start moving
Speaker 4: guys around or are they just gonna try and plug someone
Speaker 4: else in over there? He mentioned Jonas Savona that he
Speaker 4: can play all the positions. What do you think they're
Speaker 4: gonna have to do there?
Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, I think they're gonna keep big Jonah
Speaker 13: at right tackle of how solidified he has become there.
Speaker 13: But you have Rhino, a second year player that was
Speaker 13: the high three star recruit. He started with the first
Speaker 13: team offense today. And then you have a guy like
Speaker 13: Michael Wooten who transferred from Oregon, who's six foot seven
Speaker 13: to three pen and he looks all bit the three men,
Speaker 13: both of them had very good practices. But you're gonna
Speaker 13: want to see some separation between those two throughout camp,
Speaker 13: and I think those are gonna be the guys that
Speaker 13: are gonna looks to fill that role.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, anything else running back wise or yeah, the
Speaker 2: running backs that tell.
Speaker 4: Us what you saw there.
Speaker 13: You know, again, it's no contact today, so it's kind
Speaker 13: of hard to evaluate the running back position with nobody
Speaker 13: really you know, lighting them up or them drinking through
Speaker 13: a tackle. But Kwali Conley looks really good. At that
Speaker 13: injury that he had during training camp or spring practice,
Speaker 13: which I think was a leg injury somewhat doesn't seem
Speaker 13: to be bothering him, uh ja. Cory Merritt looks good
Speaker 13: out there. And those were really the two main guys
Speaker 13: that we start out there on the football field today.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, thanks Troy, thanks for the last second to
Speaker 2: get in.
Speaker 4: And thank you for your patience.
Speaker 13: No, well, never a good one.
Speaker 2: Guys, he's twenty years old. He kept.
Speaker 4: Said, where's the bus? Yeah all right, well good, you
Speaker 4: know again, there's only so much you can tell from
Speaker 4: a first practice. It's more about what does it look like?
Speaker 4: And he mentioned the vibe, right, you know, those kinds
Speaker 4: of things are what you get from that. Even I think,
Speaker 4: you know you can go to the you know, you
Speaker 4: see a spring it's kind of or of you know,
Speaker 4: of a false scrimmage or something like that. He's still
Speaker 4: not sure what you but you see.
Speaker 2: I don't think the media is not going to be
Speaker 2: allowed all the time, right, It's just gonna be bits
Speaker 2: and pieces. I think practice at all.
Speaker 4: Well, I'm confused, okay, because on Tuesday they told us
Speaker 4: they didn't know if practice today was going to be open,
Speaker 4: So I don't know if it even was. If somebody
Speaker 4: can tell us if they if you can tact us
Speaker 4: and tell us if you went to practice and got in,
Speaker 4: they haven't said. But then an email that we got,
Speaker 4: you know, listing the schedule said practices are open to
Speaker 4: the public. So I don't know what to think.
Speaker 2: Well, you can and he was pretty secret, not secret
Speaker 2: of whatever word you want to use. In the spring game.
Speaker 2: They just they just had another practice. It was nothing
Speaker 2: really game wise, right, So he didn't give away anything
Speaker 2: or he just kind of went through a practice kind
Speaker 2: of boring, but that's just what it is.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you expect they're going to kind of do that.
Speaker 4: Even even through the New Mexico and in NAU games,
Speaker 4: they're not going to want to show a lot. They're
Speaker 4: going they're going to do enough to win, obviously, but
Speaker 4: this this is one of those situations where they're not
Speaker 4: gonna want to show a lot so that they can
Speaker 4: go to Kansas State and have, you know, make them
Speaker 4: work for some stuff and have them not know some
Speaker 4: things about them, so I you know, it'll be interesting
Speaker 4: to see how they play that. I remember when when
Speaker 4: Mike students started, they were really tired. Remember that you
Speaker 4: couldn't nobody could go in.
Speaker 2: And see how'd that go? Well, he's not here, just
Speaker 2: point exactly all this secretive stuff. Just play the dead game.
Speaker 2: It's plaitally good. Well, look that guy can pass. I
Speaker 2: can catch? What level?
Speaker 1: Is it?
Speaker 2: College? Shouldn't they be able to do that?
Speaker 4: They're supposed to.
Speaker 2: I don't understand. I really don't to me. Maybe it's
Speaker 2: just be the secret. If you're good Jay, guess what
Speaker 2: you're good yeah, and get if you're better than me,
Speaker 2: gets what's gonna usually happen you're gonna beat me allegedly,
Speaker 2: I mean, just just the way it is.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's why it's supposed to be. I think, for sure,
Speaker 4: right for sure. But yeah, I don't know, so I
Speaker 4: don't know. We don't know if practices are open. I
Speaker 4: guess you can uh check the uf A website. They'll
Speaker 4: tell you. But we don't have we don't, we don't,
Speaker 4: we don't. We're not privy to that. So whatever, But
Speaker 4: another practice tomorrow morning, I guess another practice. I'm practicing
Speaker 4: at nine in the morning. If you want to go
Speaker 4: over there and see if they're open, then that's.
Speaker 2: Up to Good luck with that charge charge the gas today. Yay,
