8
00:00:21.960 --> 00:00:25.879
<v Speaker 3>I did mean Christian Conrad, not Conrad Mattertinez. Sorry, it's

9
00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:30.199
<v Speaker 3>both Conrads. I got it confused. It happens. Christian Conrad

10
00:00:30.280 --> 00:00:32.920
<v Speaker 3>is what I meant to say, the pitching coach for

11
00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:37.119
<v Speaker 3>pitching coach for Arizona. Obviously short little point card that

12
00:00:37.240 --> 00:00:41.159
<v Speaker 3>just transferred Conrad Martinez. It's not the pitching coach. I said, God,

13
00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:42.799
<v Speaker 3>that's interesting. They have the same name.

14
00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:47.679
<v Speaker 4>I didn't even catch all right, yeah, okay, sorry, question

15
00:00:47.799 --> 00:00:48.359

<v Speaker 4>Also, we kind of talked about this one already. But

40
00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:15.680
<v Speaker 4>Arizona signed chip Kill to a four year extension and

41
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:19.240
<v Speaker 4>Arizona was ranked seventh in the final.

42
00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:24.599
<v Speaker 2>That's about right. They were picked in the draft Kings

43
00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:27.199
<v Speaker 2>blah blah blah. They were the seventh favorite team to

44
00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:27.680
<v Speaker 2>win it all.

45
00:02:28.360 --> 00:02:31.840
<v Speaker 4>So that was pretty Who's a Who's a Louis Murray

46
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:33.039
<v Speaker 4>Louisville one.

47
00:02:33.080 --> 00:02:35.199
<v Speaker 3>I don't know why would say, Louisville, Murray State.

48
00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:41.319
<v Speaker 4>I think Louisville, Yeah, Louisville sixth it was Louisville sixth,

49
00:02:41.520 --> 00:02:45.599
<v Speaker 4>U C l A, Oregon State, Arkansas Coastal and then

50
00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:46.280
<v Speaker 4>l s U.

51
00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:49.199
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. All right.

52
00:02:49.439 --> 00:02:53.280
<v Speaker 4>Following that up, big news from yesterday, everybody's talking about it.

53
00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:57.520
<v Speaker 4>Thunder win their first NBA championship in Oklahoma City.

54
00:02:57.759 --> 00:03:01.000
<v Speaker 5>Obviously they won, uh one or two? I think in

55
00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:02.360
<v Speaker 5>Seattle one just one.

56
00:03:02.439 --> 00:03:03.000
<v Speaker 3>I think one.

57
00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:04.319
<v Speaker 5>I know they won one.

58
00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:05.719
<v Speaker 4>For sure, I don't I'm not sure if they want

59
00:03:05.719 --> 00:03:09.000
<v Speaker 4>to want a second one. And then big news that

60
00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:13.240
<v Speaker 4>also came out today is that tyresee towards Achilles, so

61
00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:17.280
<v Speaker 4>he'll probably be out for next season. It's considering how

62
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:20.439
<v Speaker 4>late it was in the year for for this year.

63
00:03:23.080 --> 00:03:25.280
<v Speaker 4>Moving on to baseball, I know Troy always likes to

64
00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:29.840
<v Speaker 4>talk about the Diamondbacks. Uh you know, uh, they lost

65
00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:32.960
<v Speaker 4>unfortunately against the Rockies, but they won the series yesterday,

66
00:03:33.039 --> 00:03:35.080
<v Speaker 4>or they lost yesterday but won the series, and they

67
00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:37.280
<v Speaker 4>have another one coming up against the White Sox.

68
00:03:37.639 --> 00:03:38.800
<v Speaker 3>So is that we're home.

69
00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:45.599
<v Speaker 4>Nope, No, hopefully the Pope doesn't influence any of that,

70
00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:48.680
<v Speaker 4>or you know, the divine.

71
00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:51.000
<v Speaker 2>You're telling him not to be involved in this is

72
00:03:51.039 --> 00:03:51.680
<v Speaker 2>what you're saying.

73
00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:54.520
<v Speaker 4>You never know, you know, he's he's supposed to be

74
00:03:54.560 --> 00:03:56.199
<v Speaker 4>the big guys right hand man, you know what I mean.

75
00:03:56.240 --> 00:03:59.919
<v Speaker 5>So hopefully doesn't mess with it.

76
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:01.680
<v Speaker 3>Stay out of politics and religion.

77
00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:05.479
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, hey, well, I mean he got into sports. I

78
00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:06.639
<v Speaker 4>stay out of sports too.

79
00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:12.879
<v Speaker 5>Another big, another big story.

80
00:04:13.039 --> 00:04:15.800
<v Speaker 3>Conrad Martinez is the pitching coach for you.

81
00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:21.199
<v Speaker 5>May uh hey, he's a double threat. You know, double threat.

82
00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:22.680
<v Speaker 5>You can do it on the court and on the field.

83
00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:30.439
<v Speaker 4>The Sons obviously made that huge trade yesterday for Or

84
00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:31.279
<v Speaker 4>they traded Kevin Duran.

85
00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:33.800
<v Speaker 5>I'm sorry to the Rockets obviously.

86
00:04:33.839 --> 00:04:37.000
<v Speaker 4>We already talked about how that could affect Carter Bryan's

87
00:04:37.040 --> 00:04:37.639
<v Speaker 4>draft stock.

88
00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:44.079
<v Speaker 5>O Tani, gotta you get rock yesterday. No, he had

89
00:04:44.079 --> 00:04:44.879
<v Speaker 5>a couple of strikeouts.

90
00:04:45.120 --> 00:04:46.800
<v Speaker 3>Did he did he give up any runs? I don't

91
00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:47.240
<v Speaker 3>think he did.

92
00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:49.160
<v Speaker 2>Just went one.

93
00:04:49.360 --> 00:04:54.360
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, still just going one. Doesn't say when they're gonna

94
00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:59.680
<v Speaker 4>start upping that. But he threw eighteen. So staying fairly

95
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:03.399
<v Speaker 4>uh conservative with the well Dodgers were saying fairly conservative

96
00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:08.759
<v Speaker 4>without arm Oh this is one that I kind of

97
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:15.680
<v Speaker 4>surprised me in fis you I think former quarterback I

98
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:17.920
<v Speaker 4>think it's said former quarterback on the headline, but I

99
00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:22.040
<v Speaker 4>don't really, I can't see it now. It's called out

100
00:05:22.079 --> 00:05:25.720
<v Speaker 4>Alabama even though this like they're playing each other this

101
00:05:25.720 --> 00:05:26.360
<v Speaker 4>coming season.

102
00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:27.560
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

103
00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:31.199
<v Speaker 4>I think it's pretty early to start giving bulletin material.

104
00:05:31.480 --> 00:05:35.199
<v Speaker 5>But I mean, what do you say he just said that, uh.

105
00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:41.319
<v Speaker 4>Said Alabama doesn't have Nick Saban to save them anymore.

106
00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:44.519
<v Speaker 3>He's right, yeah, it's not not not all the way

107
00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:46.839
<v Speaker 3>wrong and even four and three.

108
00:05:47.399 --> 00:05:50.879
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and who knows what he's going to do considering right,

109
00:05:51.360 --> 00:05:52.160
<v Speaker 4>what happened last year.

110
00:05:52.279 --> 00:05:55.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, he shouldn't be talking crap after doing what

111
00:05:55.759 --> 00:05:56.560
<v Speaker 3>they did last year.

112
00:05:56.680 --> 00:06:00.079
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's it's a bad look.

113
00:06:00.839 --> 00:06:04.639
<v Speaker 3>That's is that it? Yeah, there's not a lot, there's not.

114
00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:07.439
<v Speaker 2>I mean, well, then the one trying to find that

115
00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:10.040
<v Speaker 2>one that you sent me the ritual report, Okay, yeah,

116
00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:10.680
<v Speaker 2>what it means?

117
00:06:10.680 --> 00:06:11.839
<v Speaker 6>I don't know if you can get it up on

118
00:06:11.839 --> 00:06:16.240
<v Speaker 6>on there because your phone. That's interesting to me. Yeah,

119
00:06:16.279 --> 00:06:18.399
<v Speaker 6>so just like while I look for it, I could

120
00:06:18.399 --> 00:06:22.959
<v Speaker 6>preface it. The n c A A is I mean,

121
00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:23.720
<v Speaker 6>it was brought up.

122
00:06:23.720 --> 00:06:25.680
<v Speaker 4>I don't know if it's like really how much it

123
00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:28.839
<v Speaker 4>was debated, but it was brought up someone within like

124
00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:34.639
<v Speaker 4>the board or somewhere something like that is debating, or like,

125
00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:38.360
<v Speaker 4>like I said, brought up changing the betting rules to

126
00:06:38.639 --> 00:06:43.720
<v Speaker 4>allow players and staff which you know.

127
00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:47.160
<v Speaker 2>Well, to allow them to Yes, yeah, you might want

128
00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:51.079
<v Speaker 2>to read that more carefully that I don't think that'd

129
00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:52.399
<v Speaker 2>be foolish for them to do.

130
00:06:52.439 --> 00:06:56.600
<v Speaker 4>That first paragraph is as n c double A leaders

131
00:06:56.639 --> 00:06:59.560
<v Speaker 4>prepared to decide whether to pass new legislation that would

132
00:06:59.560 --> 00:07:03.079
<v Speaker 4>allow college athletes, coaches, and staffords to bet on professional sports.

133
00:07:03.160 --> 00:07:06.480
<v Speaker 4>The idea of granting that permission reportedly has not gone

134
00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:09.120
<v Speaker 4>over well with the members of thirty five person Well,

135
00:07:09.240 --> 00:07:10.920
<v Speaker 4>oh professional.

136
00:07:10.639 --> 00:07:12.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that kind of makes sense, but they still wouldn't

137
00:07:12.759 --> 00:07:14.879
<v Speaker 2>allow that. I still don't think that would better. No, yeah,

138
00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:18.199
<v Speaker 2>I don't think so either. No matter how prominent or

139
00:07:18.560 --> 00:07:20.600
<v Speaker 2>that gambling is in the world that we live in

140
00:07:20.839 --> 00:07:24.240
<v Speaker 2>and how they sponsor stuff now I can venues and

141
00:07:24.279 --> 00:07:24.839
<v Speaker 2>things like that, I.

142
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:27.199
<v Speaker 3>Don't I don't think they would. Not only that, but

143
00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:30.279
<v Speaker 3>not that it doesn't happen already. But how many athletes

144
00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:34.920
<v Speaker 3>and coaches know athletes coaches at that level, sure, oh

145
00:07:34.920 --> 00:07:37.160
<v Speaker 3>that guy's I'm playing okay, cool? Thanks, got it know?

146
00:07:37.279 --> 00:07:39.279
<v Speaker 4>And how many I think another thing too, is like,

147
00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:41.600
<v Speaker 4>how many NCAA players are really going to be able

148
00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:41.920
<v Speaker 4>to bet?

149
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:43.240
<v Speaker 5>You still got to be twenty one?

150
00:07:44.920 --> 00:07:45.240
<v Speaker 3>True?

151
00:07:45.399 --> 00:07:48.000
<v Speaker 2>True, but true, But it just opens up in another

152
00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:50.279
<v Speaker 2>can of worms. Wh I deal with it? Yeah, I

153
00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:52.639
<v Speaker 2>think it's better just to stay away from it. Yeah,

154
00:07:52.680 --> 00:07:56.600
<v Speaker 2>not that it prevents them already. Yeah, well that's for

155
00:07:56.639 --> 00:07:59.480
<v Speaker 2>another different topic. But you know what I'm saying.

156
00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:03.959
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I don't know a lot of people. Uh, giving

157
00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:07.000
<v Speaker 4>how it's his name, Alex Caruso some heat?

158
00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:11.120
<v Speaker 2>Where did he play in college? Because he was undrafted?

159
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:17.399
<v Speaker 2>He's another Yeah, yeah, he's another t J. Yeah, better

160
00:08:17.480 --> 00:08:20.959
<v Speaker 2>DJ Texas A and M. Really Texas A and M.

161
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:22.519
<v Speaker 2>I never would have thought that. I would have thought

162
00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:25.199
<v Speaker 2>he's low. No, No, you know who plays it? You

163
00:08:25.199 --> 00:08:34.279
<v Speaker 2>know who played it in your Mexico Indianapolis, the Indiana

164
00:08:34.360 --> 00:08:37.639
<v Speaker 2>good player, the tall guy.

165
00:08:36.559 --> 00:08:41.440
<v Speaker 3>Myles Turner, no be topping, No, the other guy dating.

166
00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:47.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, they were pretty good when he was there,

167
00:08:48.320 --> 00:08:49.799
<v Speaker 2>foreign guy International.

168
00:08:51.960 --> 00:08:52.320
<v Speaker 3>That's when.

169
00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:54.600
<v Speaker 2>That's when New Mexico State was good, maybe three four

170
00:08:54.639 --> 00:08:57.240
<v Speaker 2>years ago, before all the trouble. I didn't even know

171
00:08:57.320 --> 00:08:59.600
<v Speaker 2>he did until I saw his name and I realized

172
00:08:59.639 --> 00:09:02.960
<v Speaker 2>he paid played that in New Mexico State. He's fantastic. He

173
00:09:02.960 --> 00:09:05.000
<v Speaker 2>would have been able to say them had you know,

174
00:09:05.120 --> 00:09:08.080
<v Speaker 2>he and Matren had a fairly good fourth quarter. I

175
00:09:08.080 --> 00:09:12.399
<v Speaker 2>guess it was, and and uh had a pretty good

176
00:09:12.440 --> 00:09:12.960
<v Speaker 2>third quarter.

177
00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:15.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but once once you lose that, oh no, no,

178
00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:16.559
<v Speaker 3>you were you.

179
00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:19.799
<v Speaker 2>Were going to win that just given the you know,

180
00:09:19.960 --> 00:09:21.360
<v Speaker 2>the whole game to play like that.

181
00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:25.240
<v Speaker 4>Well, I mean and I think it, you know, for

182
00:09:26.679 --> 00:09:28.720
<v Speaker 4>you know, even though the outcome it wasn't with like

183
00:09:28.759 --> 00:09:31.480
<v Speaker 4>Pacers and and their fans wanted. I mean it was

184
00:09:32.240 --> 00:09:34.720
<v Speaker 4>it was until the third like halfway through the third quarter.

185
00:09:34.759 --> 00:09:36.600
<v Speaker 2>It was a good game, hey, with about three minute

186
00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:37.519
<v Speaker 2>stuff and they were up by twelve.

187
00:09:37.559 --> 00:09:38.279
<v Speaker 3>I'm thinking that no.

188
00:09:38.320 --> 00:09:41.759
<v Speaker 2>Lead is safe given the the game three, the games ago,

189
00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:45.519
<v Speaker 2>whatever it was. But where Indianapolis lost the series was

190
00:09:45.559 --> 00:09:47.559
<v Speaker 2>the game five when they had that big lead and

191
00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:48.360
<v Speaker 2>then they gave it up.

192
00:09:49.960 --> 00:09:50.159
<v Speaker 7>One.

193
00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:52.759
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. I think it was Game four, one of those games,

194
00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:54.879
<v Speaker 3>game five, because you could have gone up three one.

195
00:09:55.519 --> 00:09:57.960
<v Speaker 3>Oh so game four they had a huge leader in

196
00:09:57.960 --> 00:10:01.320
<v Speaker 3>the game. I am not on it today, man, that's

197
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:05.399
<v Speaker 3>getting it. It's freezing in he though, No, No, it

198
00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:09.360
<v Speaker 3>was Game four, because ye, yeah, it was Game four yeah, yeah, No,

199
00:10:09.480 --> 00:10:12.960
<v Speaker 3>I mean that's a big opportunity missed and now like

200
00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:16.960
<v Speaker 3>it was great for Indianapolis and you should celebrate making

201
00:10:16.960 --> 00:10:21.159
<v Speaker 3>it that far. But yea, when are you going to

202
00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:21.600
<v Speaker 3>get back?

203
00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:21.919
<v Speaker 8>Yeah?

204
00:10:21.919 --> 00:10:25.480
<v Speaker 3>And is it even possible to get back with this?

205
00:10:27.080 --> 00:10:29.600
<v Speaker 3>Now that Halliburton is probably gonna be out for a year,

206
00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:31.879
<v Speaker 3>you're going to miss that year with them. Then guys

207
00:10:31.919 --> 00:10:34.080
<v Speaker 3>are going to get older, Then contracts are going to happen,

208
00:10:34.320 --> 00:10:37.240
<v Speaker 3>are not going to be the same. I think your

209
00:10:37.320 --> 00:10:40.720
<v Speaker 3>window of yeah and things can change, go ahead to

210
00:10:40.759 --> 00:10:43.720
<v Speaker 3>kill it right now? Your window is closing, Yeah, because

211
00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:45.759
<v Speaker 3>of the injury. I think the injury plays a massive rolle.

212
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:47.919
<v Speaker 2>What do you think about Phoenix with that trade? I

213
00:10:47.960 --> 00:10:49.919
<v Speaker 2>love the trade because.

214
00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:53.000
<v Speaker 3>Because one, it's hard to get anything for a thirty

215
00:10:53.039 --> 00:10:56.399
<v Speaker 3>seven year old they I think they could have gotten

216
00:10:56.440 --> 00:10:58.399
<v Speaker 3>a little bit more, But I'm fine what they got

217
00:10:59.200 --> 00:11:01.360
<v Speaker 3>in terms of the draft pick side of it. But

218
00:11:01.759 --> 00:11:03.840
<v Speaker 3>thirty seven year old making one hundred and not one

219
00:11:03.879 --> 00:11:08.480
<v Speaker 3>hundred fifty one million dollars, that's difficult to trade. Two,

220
00:11:08.840 --> 00:11:10.840
<v Speaker 3>he's not the same player. At three. You got a young,

221
00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:13.399
<v Speaker 3>talented player in Jalen Green. I know he's on a

222
00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:15.799
<v Speaker 3>big contract. But contracts are going to go up over time.

223
00:11:15.919 --> 00:11:16.399
<v Speaker 2>You get paid.

224
00:11:17.639 --> 00:11:19.519
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but you know what, you know what everybody says

225
00:11:19.559 --> 00:11:22.000
<v Speaker 3>when he's on your team. He's a great team guy.

226
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:23.879
<v Speaker 3>They all love him. Sure, he's one of those guys

227
00:11:23.879 --> 00:11:26.639
<v Speaker 3>you hate to go against him. But Phoenix has been

228
00:11:27.080 --> 00:11:29.799
<v Speaker 3>charm and soft. They've been soft as heck over the

229
00:11:29.879 --> 00:11:32.679
<v Speaker 3>last couple of years. You need that toughness. You need

230
00:11:32.720 --> 00:11:35.559
<v Speaker 3>something ever since mckel bridges left, ever since you got

231
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:38.000
<v Speaker 3>rid of that core. And again I would do that

232
00:11:38.039 --> 00:11:42.240
<v Speaker 3>trade on hundred percent every time, but other things played out.

233
00:11:42.519 --> 00:11:45.639
<v Speaker 3>You lost that toughness. You get the tenth overall pick.

234
00:11:45.679 --> 00:11:48.240
<v Speaker 3>I think that's a bonus. I like Carter Bryant with

235
00:11:48.279 --> 00:11:51.440
<v Speaker 3>that before Hick before well they still have their pick,

236
00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:55.279
<v Speaker 3>the twenty ninth pain. So now you have two picks.

237
00:11:56.360 --> 00:11:58.200
<v Speaker 3>You get five second round draft picks, and I think

238
00:11:58.279 --> 00:12:01.200
<v Speaker 3>that's where you kind of lose me. You should have

239
00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:03.080
<v Speaker 3>been able to at least get one of your draft

240
00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:06.320
<v Speaker 3>picks back from Houston, so I would have wanted to

241
00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:09.080
<v Speaker 3>first round draft picks. So this tenth pick and a

242
00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:12.159
<v Speaker 3>future first but other than that, you have five second

243
00:12:12.200 --> 00:12:14.679
<v Speaker 3>round picks, which you could maybe trade up and get

244
00:12:14.720 --> 00:12:17.080
<v Speaker 3>into the first round. Late in that first round.

245
00:12:17.399 --> 00:12:21.360
<v Speaker 2>I thought they came out with the steal and Durant's old, right, yeah,

246
00:12:21.399 --> 00:12:23.559
<v Speaker 2>and he's he had a pretty good year this year.

247
00:12:23.799 --> 00:12:28.000
<v Speaker 2>We'll see what happens. Houston will be pretty good. Well well,

248
00:12:28.120 --> 00:12:29.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean, are they done? Probably not.

249
00:12:30.039 --> 00:12:33.320
<v Speaker 3>So the one of the rumors out there is are

250
00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:36.159
<v Speaker 3>they going to be able to pair Giannis and Durant

251
00:12:36.200 --> 00:12:41.080
<v Speaker 3>in Houston? And does that work out? Because and is

252
00:12:41.120 --> 00:12:41.759
<v Speaker 3>that even.

253
00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:42.200
<v Speaker 2>Think about it?

254
00:12:42.200 --> 00:12:44.519
<v Speaker 3>With him, he's just he's just a diva. It's just

255
00:12:45.080 --> 00:12:48.320
<v Speaker 3>it's just to pair anybody with him. Did you see

256
00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:51.240
<v Speaker 3>did you see the interview after he got traded, because

257
00:12:51.240 --> 00:12:55.399
<v Speaker 3>he was on a podcast during that Yeah, yeah, and

258
00:12:55.600 --> 00:12:58.120
<v Speaker 3>some of the reporter asked him about the trade and

259
00:12:58.200 --> 00:13:00.919
<v Speaker 3>your thoughts on leaving Phoenix. He goes, well, the fans

260
00:13:00.960 --> 00:13:02.960
<v Speaker 3>really didn't want me anyway. They're getting tired of me,

261
00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:04.679
<v Speaker 3>so now they got what they wanted. Bye.

262
00:13:04.840 --> 00:13:07.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Well here's that dude, because he has there's burner,

263
00:13:08.279 --> 00:13:11.159
<v Speaker 2>he pays the stuff. Just just play.

264
00:13:11.399 --> 00:13:12.639
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I worry about it.

265
00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:14.279
<v Speaker 2>You pay me fifty one millions. I don't even need

266
00:13:14.320 --> 00:13:14.799
<v Speaker 2>to say hello.

267
00:13:14.919 --> 00:13:16.600
<v Speaker 3>You could You could go out right now and tweet

268
00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:18.600
<v Speaker 3>at him, and he'll respond, oh yeah, yeah, which makes

269
00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:19.960
<v Speaker 3>no sense. Yeah, it makes no sense.

270
00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:22.200
<v Speaker 5>I mean, what else are you gonna do? You know,

271
00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:25.679
<v Speaker 5>you're thirty seven in the off season under game.

272
00:13:25.759 --> 00:13:27.399
<v Speaker 2>Who's that guy on tweeting meat?

273
00:13:27.480 --> 00:13:27.679
<v Speaker 8>There?

274
00:13:28.360 --> 00:13:30.159
<v Speaker 3>But no, I think I think Jalen Green is a

275
00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:32.639
<v Speaker 3>good piece, and I think you could either keep Dylan

276
00:13:32.639 --> 00:13:35.320
<v Speaker 3>Brooks or flip them. Potentially. I think it's better if

277
00:13:35.320 --> 00:13:38.600
<v Speaker 3>they flipped. Okay, let's go, we go. What do we got, Yeah,

301
00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:03.799
<v Speaker 2>I needed a lot of gravel for my driveway, so

302
00:15:03.840 --> 00:15:05.960
<v Speaker 2>I called Eric at Dorato Rock. He found out the

<v Speaker 2>amount and color I needed and boom, it was taken

382
00:19:08.519 --> 00:19:10.519
<v Speaker 2>how are you good?

383
00:19:10.559 --> 00:19:11.440
<v Speaker 3>Thanks for having me back.

384
00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:14.039
<v Speaker 2>Sure sure. Let me say this, it was probably a

385
00:19:14.039 --> 00:19:16.359
<v Speaker 2>matter of when, not if, right about.

386
00:19:16.519 --> 00:19:22.079
<v Speaker 7>Chip with the contract extension, Yeah, yeah, yeah, It's something

387
00:19:22.119 --> 00:19:25.039
<v Speaker 7>that had to get done going into the final year

388
00:19:25.079 --> 00:19:27.519
<v Speaker 7>of his deal. Now, there are a lot of coaches

389
00:19:27.559 --> 00:19:29.720
<v Speaker 7>at Arizona that are in that situation, so there should

390
00:19:29.759 --> 00:19:33.039
<v Speaker 7>be other extensions coming soon for other coaches. But when

391
00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:36.880
<v Speaker 7>you're coming off a trip to the World Series, and

392
00:19:38.000 --> 00:19:40.119
<v Speaker 7>that's just the perfect time to do it, either during

393
00:19:40.279 --> 00:19:42.359
<v Speaker 7>or right after. So I'm not surprised that it came

394
00:19:42.519 --> 00:19:44.359
<v Speaker 7>at this point, you know.

395
00:19:44.359 --> 00:19:46.920
<v Speaker 3>Looking at the run that they were able to have,

396
00:19:47.039 --> 00:19:49.680
<v Speaker 3>and we had you on the show, I believe right

397
00:19:49.720 --> 00:19:54.240
<v Speaker 3>before the College World Series and you're saying Arizona will

398
00:19:54.279 --> 00:19:57.039
<v Speaker 3>have success if the pitching staff holds up, they're able

399
00:19:57.079 --> 00:19:59.880
<v Speaker 3>to do that. And I know, you know themes played

400
00:20:00.200 --> 00:20:02.240
<v Speaker 3>in the eighth ennying that nobody realized what was going

401
00:20:02.279 --> 00:20:06.039
<v Speaker 3>to happen. But how impressed were you guys like Bailey,

402
00:20:06.079 --> 00:20:07.799
<v Speaker 3>Smith and others in that rotation.

403
00:20:09.359 --> 00:20:12.119
<v Speaker 7>Oh yeah, The starting pitching had been struggled in the

404
00:20:12.119 --> 00:20:15.880
<v Speaker 7>previous series, the first two games in North Carolina the

405
00:20:15.880 --> 00:20:19.279
<v Speaker 7>Super Regional, So to have Owenkrankowski and Smith Bailey put

406
00:20:19.359 --> 00:20:22.160
<v Speaker 7>up the starts that they did, they put Arizona in

407
00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:25.160
<v Speaker 7>position in both of those games. Those starters left the

408
00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:28.519
<v Speaker 7>games with the lead, and the bullpen had been a

409
00:20:28.559 --> 00:20:32.440
<v Speaker 7>strength all season. This team had not lost a game

410
00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:35.920
<v Speaker 7>that it was leading or tied after six innings all season,

411
00:20:36.279 --> 00:20:39.279
<v Speaker 7>and then it happened both of those games. You know,

412
00:20:39.480 --> 00:20:41.480
<v Speaker 7>you could call it regression to the mean, you could

413
00:20:41.519 --> 00:20:45.000
<v Speaker 7>call it just you know, law of averages. But they

414
00:20:45.319 --> 00:20:48.200
<v Speaker 7>the thing that hadn't happened to them all year happened

415
00:20:48.200 --> 00:20:49.960
<v Speaker 7>in those two games, and that's why they were done

416
00:20:50.000 --> 00:20:50.519
<v Speaker 7>so quickly.

417
00:20:50.920 --> 00:20:53.599
<v Speaker 2>What was the mood like after the first two up

418
00:20:53.599 --> 00:20:55.240
<v Speaker 2>to the first loss and then the second loss? So

419
00:20:55.400 --> 00:20:57.759
<v Speaker 2>was the you know, is it different than basketball is

420
00:20:57.920 --> 00:20:59.200
<v Speaker 2>because baseball is always different.

421
00:21:00.400 --> 00:21:02.880
<v Speaker 7>Well, I mean because of the fact that it's a

422
00:21:02.920 --> 00:21:07.160
<v Speaker 7>double elimination tournament. You have the ability to bounce back

423
00:21:07.200 --> 00:21:09.440
<v Speaker 7>after a loss, and they had shown so many times

424
00:21:09.519 --> 00:21:12.319
<v Speaker 7>during the season the ability to do that, including in

425
00:21:12.359 --> 00:21:16.240
<v Speaker 7>the Super Regionals, So there was a feeling of, hey,

426
00:21:16.400 --> 00:21:19.240
<v Speaker 7>we've been through this before, we can bounce back from it.

427
00:21:19.920 --> 00:21:23.839
<v Speaker 7>There were some concerns that because of how painful that

428
00:21:23.920 --> 00:21:25.960
<v Speaker 7>first loss was, it wasn't a blowout, the one that

429
00:21:25.960 --> 00:21:28.319
<v Speaker 7>they were leading and then it fell apart at the end,

430
00:21:28.680 --> 00:21:30.880
<v Speaker 7>how they would handle that. But then the next game

431
00:21:30.920 --> 00:21:34.039
<v Speaker 7>they start out they're up to nothing. They made too

432
00:21:34.039 --> 00:21:38.559
<v Speaker 7>many mistakes along the way to they didn't give themselves

433
00:21:38.680 --> 00:21:39.680
<v Speaker 7>enough of a margin of er.

434
00:21:39.720 --> 00:21:40.200
<v Speaker 3>At the end.

435
00:21:40.640 --> 00:21:43.599
<v Speaker 7>And then after that second game, I mean, there's devastation

436
00:21:43.759 --> 00:21:48.640
<v Speaker 7>because suddenly it's all over. But I think that once

437
00:21:48.720 --> 00:21:52.240
<v Speaker 7>they got over that initial pain, they still were able

438
00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:54.599
<v Speaker 7>to reflect on how big of a season this was overall.

439
00:21:54.720 --> 00:21:58.799
<v Speaker 2>I talked to Michael Love for sure, maybe somebody else too.

440
00:21:59.559 --> 00:22:02.240
<v Speaker 2>But when you were most of all, if not all

441
00:22:02.359 --> 00:22:05.720
<v Speaker 2>games for Arizona, then if you were a fan, how

442
00:22:05.759 --> 00:22:08.359
<v Speaker 2>difficult was it to follow them? Because it seemed like

443
00:22:08.599 --> 00:22:10.720
<v Speaker 2>in the eighth or ninety and no lead was safe.

444
00:22:10.720 --> 00:22:13.039
<v Speaker 2>They didn't score enough runs for you one and then

445
00:22:13.079 --> 00:22:14.799
<v Speaker 2>who knew, at least in the last month that I

446
00:22:14.839 --> 00:22:17.240
<v Speaker 2>started paying attention, it was like, holy crap, you don't

447
00:22:17.240 --> 00:22:19.240
<v Speaker 2>know if that's enough, especially in the playoffs.

448
00:22:20.400 --> 00:22:23.079
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, I mean that the offense was not as good

449
00:22:23.200 --> 00:22:29.599
<v Speaker 7>as expected, whether it be some injuries but just overall cohesiveness.

450
00:22:30.279 --> 00:22:32.240
<v Speaker 7>They weren't a team that was going to be regularly

451
00:22:32.279 --> 00:22:35.119
<v Speaker 7>scoring eight to ten runs a game. They were a

452
00:22:35.160 --> 00:22:38.680
<v Speaker 7>team that was going to find themselves in close games.

453
00:22:39.119 --> 00:22:42.559
<v Speaker 7>But they hadn't lost a game that was decided by

454
00:22:42.640 --> 00:22:45.200
<v Speaker 7>one run since the season opener, so they'd been able

455
00:22:45.240 --> 00:22:48.279
<v Speaker 7>to handle those pressure situations. I think if you had

456
00:22:48.319 --> 00:22:52.200
<v Speaker 7>been watching all along, it's stressful, but it also you'd

457
00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:54.759
<v Speaker 7>known that this team had been built to be able

458
00:22:54.799 --> 00:22:58.440
<v Speaker 7>to win those close games, and which is what made

459
00:22:58.480 --> 00:23:02.200
<v Speaker 7>it so surprising both those losses, especially since it happened

460
00:23:02.240 --> 00:23:04.000
<v Speaker 7>in the eighth inning of both, and both of them

461
00:23:04.000 --> 00:23:07.359
<v Speaker 7>were pretty much implosions, especially at the second one.

462
00:23:08.079 --> 00:23:09.880
<v Speaker 3>I think we talked about this Steve and I with

463
00:23:09.920 --> 00:23:15.839
<v Speaker 3>Michael lev during after everything, But obviously Summer Hill, a

464
00:23:15.839 --> 00:23:18.880
<v Speaker 3>tremendous player, had a great career at Arizona, but during

465
00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:21.599
<v Speaker 3>that postseason, all the injuries that he sustained throughout the

466
00:23:21.640 --> 00:23:25.000
<v Speaker 3>season seemed to maybe be taking a pull on him

467
00:23:25.079 --> 00:23:27.640
<v Speaker 3>offensively up there at the plate, and obviously when you're

468
00:23:27.680 --> 00:23:30.440
<v Speaker 3>going through a slump, that's another factor as well. Do

469
00:23:30.440 --> 00:23:32.960
<v Speaker 3>you think there was ever a time where Arizona maybe

470
00:23:32.960 --> 00:23:35.759
<v Speaker 3>he should have maybe mixed things up in the lineup

471
00:23:35.920 --> 00:23:37.799
<v Speaker 3>at the College World Series. I know it's hard to

472
00:23:37.799 --> 00:23:39.079
<v Speaker 3>do that in those moments, though.

473
00:23:39.880 --> 00:23:42.720
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, I wouldn't have taken him out of the lineup

474
00:23:42.759 --> 00:23:45.640
<v Speaker 7>because I think he still provides so much value with

475
00:23:46.440 --> 00:23:50.359
<v Speaker 7>drawing walks and his ability to put pressure on the

476
00:23:50.359 --> 00:23:52.960
<v Speaker 7>bases and all that. He wasn't hitting as well. He

477
00:23:53.680 --> 00:23:55.599
<v Speaker 7>just didn't have that whole power that he had had

478
00:23:55.640 --> 00:23:59.079
<v Speaker 7>before he was hurt. Where I might have looked at

479
00:23:59.240 --> 00:24:01.680
<v Speaker 7>trying to take him out of the outfield and make

480
00:24:01.759 --> 00:24:04.680
<v Speaker 7>him be the DH and have Andrew Kane, who'd been DH,

481
00:24:05.279 --> 00:24:08.240
<v Speaker 7>handle right field because he had filled in in the

482
00:24:08.240 --> 00:24:11.039
<v Speaker 7>outfield at times when Summer Hill was out. But I

483
00:24:11.119 --> 00:24:12.680
<v Speaker 7>think it was just a matter of they wanted to

484
00:24:12.720 --> 00:24:17.240
<v Speaker 7>go with the guys who were there, and that I

485
00:24:17.279 --> 00:24:20.799
<v Speaker 7>guess they just didn't feel that on the defensive side

486
00:24:20.960 --> 00:24:25.160
<v Speaker 7>it had as much of an impact. But it's weird.

487
00:24:24.839 --> 00:24:27.279
<v Speaker 7>It never looked like he was able to really get

488
00:24:27.279 --> 00:24:29.920
<v Speaker 7>a good jump on a lot of the balls to

489
00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:32.720
<v Speaker 7>him in right field after he got injured, And I

490
00:24:32.759 --> 00:24:35.039
<v Speaker 7>don't know if that was because he didn't want to

491
00:24:35.079 --> 00:24:38.279
<v Speaker 7>take too hard of a first step and reinjure. You know,

492
00:24:38.839 --> 00:24:41.960
<v Speaker 7>I can't speak for somebody injury wise how they feel

493
00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:44.480
<v Speaker 7>about not wanting to get hurt, especially when you are

494
00:24:44.799 --> 00:24:48.319
<v Speaker 7>a couple months away from signing a seven figure deal

495
00:24:48.400 --> 00:24:51.359
<v Speaker 7>as a signing bonus after getting drafted, but it was

496
00:24:51.359 --> 00:24:54.039
<v Speaker 7>pretty evident that there was something missing from him there.

497
00:24:54.680 --> 00:24:58.319
<v Speaker 2>Let's switch to basketball. Outside of Tommy Lloyd freaking out

498
00:24:58.319 --> 00:25:04.000
<v Speaker 2>when I didn't like Sonora Dogs and him kind of

499
00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:06.759
<v Speaker 2>messing with me when I said that Caleb Love hasn't

500
00:25:06.799 --> 00:25:09.720
<v Speaker 2>been listed in any lists and he him saying that

501
00:25:09.759 --> 00:25:10.799
<v Speaker 2>he's going to play in the NBA.

502
00:25:11.279 --> 00:25:14.759
<v Speaker 3>What do you think I mean?

503
00:25:14.759 --> 00:25:18.119
<v Speaker 7>I wouldn't be surprised. I've seen that he's starting to

504
00:25:18.240 --> 00:25:20.279
<v Speaker 7>slightly move up some of these draft boards.

505
00:25:20.599 --> 00:25:22.119
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if he'll get drafted.

506
00:25:22.400 --> 00:25:24.559
<v Speaker 7>If someone would really have to want to take a

507
00:25:24.559 --> 00:25:27.880
<v Speaker 7>flyer in the second round, maybe if it's a team

508
00:25:27.920 --> 00:25:31.200
<v Speaker 7>that has three or four picks through trades, that they

509
00:25:31.279 --> 00:25:33.079
<v Speaker 7>might want to take a flyer. But he's going to

510
00:25:33.079 --> 00:25:36.839
<v Speaker 7>get a summer league invite somewhere, and that seems like

511
00:25:36.880 --> 00:25:40.440
<v Speaker 7>a place where he could really really thrive too, because

512
00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:44.039
<v Speaker 7>he's playing with like minded players who are trying to

513
00:25:44.039 --> 00:25:48.000
<v Speaker 7>get on those spots. And I wouldn't It wouldn't surprise

514
00:25:48.079 --> 00:25:50.640
<v Speaker 7>me at all to see him be in someone's camp

515
00:25:50.680 --> 00:25:53.319
<v Speaker 7>and then end up being on their G League team

516
00:25:53.359 --> 00:25:54.000
<v Speaker 7>this year.

517
00:25:54.240 --> 00:25:56.680
<v Speaker 2>That I don't disagree with. Yeah, No, I agree, And

518
00:25:56.720 --> 00:25:58.559
<v Speaker 2>that's a big difference of being on this roster at

519
00:25:58.559 --> 00:25:59.799
<v Speaker 2>the end of NBA level.

520
00:26:01.039 --> 00:26:04.559
<v Speaker 3>Well, we've seen with not only Tommy's guys, but Sean

521
00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:08.079
<v Speaker 3>Miller's guys as well, them get that summer league invite,

522
00:26:08.200 --> 00:26:10.599
<v Speaker 3>have a tremendous summer league all of a sudden they're

523
00:26:10.640 --> 00:26:13.599
<v Speaker 3>in the league. Treer kind of similar. But obviously he's

524
00:26:13.599 --> 00:26:16.039
<v Speaker 3>out of the league now, but that summer league invite

525
00:26:16.160 --> 00:26:17.839
<v Speaker 3>is so important for these players.

526
00:26:18.920 --> 00:26:21.200
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, and I don't see any reason why he wouldn't

527
00:26:21.279 --> 00:26:24.440
<v Speaker 7>end up on someone's summer league roster just for the

528
00:26:24.440 --> 00:26:27.480
<v Speaker 7>simple fact that you've got you need guys and you're

529
00:26:27.480 --> 00:26:29.079
<v Speaker 7>going to be playing a bunch of games in a

530
00:26:29.119 --> 00:26:32.599
<v Speaker 7>short period of time. And while that you do have

531
00:26:32.680 --> 00:26:34.599
<v Speaker 7>some of your existing players there that you want to

532
00:26:34.640 --> 00:26:37.160
<v Speaker 7>see what they can do, you pretty much have an

533
00:26:37.160 --> 00:26:39.880
<v Speaker 7>idea about them. You really are trying to find that

534
00:26:40.240 --> 00:26:44.599
<v Speaker 7>twelve thirteen fourteen guy on your roster and also building

535
00:26:44.599 --> 00:26:48.039
<v Speaker 7>the depths in the minors, and that's where he can

536
00:26:48.039 --> 00:26:51.880
<v Speaker 7>get that opportunity. And if he has a couple big games,

537
00:26:51.960 --> 00:26:55.960
<v Speaker 7>then he might start out on a roster and be

538
00:26:56.119 --> 00:26:58.400
<v Speaker 7>one of those you know, last on the bench guys,

539
00:26:58.519 --> 00:27:01.279
<v Speaker 7>or if they really feel like they want to develop

540
00:27:01.319 --> 00:27:03.400
<v Speaker 7>him more than and playing a lot of minutes, and

541
00:27:03.440 --> 00:27:04.039
<v Speaker 7>he'd be down in.

542
00:27:03.960 --> 00:27:06.319
<v Speaker 3>The G League. Yeah. You know, one thing that was

543
00:27:06.400 --> 00:27:09.240
<v Speaker 3>mentioned during Tommy Lloyd's press conference, and I don't think

544
00:27:09.279 --> 00:27:13.519
<v Speaker 3>really was focused on that much from Tommy, was is

545
00:27:13.559 --> 00:27:15.960
<v Speaker 3>this going to be the final roster the world? There'd

546
00:27:16.000 --> 00:27:18.640
<v Speaker 3>be another edition. They do have room for, I believe

547
00:27:18.880 --> 00:27:21.519
<v Speaker 3>one more edition. But he said yes, yeah, he said, well,

548
00:27:21.559 --> 00:27:24.599
<v Speaker 3>he said they're always looking stuff like that. But I mean,

549
00:27:24.640 --> 00:27:27.079
<v Speaker 3>when you get to this point of this of the

550
00:27:27.119 --> 00:27:31.119
<v Speaker 3>off season, it's kind of hard to find that piece

551
00:27:31.160 --> 00:27:35.480
<v Speaker 3>that you want to bring in at this point, correct correct.

552
00:27:35.599 --> 00:27:38.960
<v Speaker 7>I mean he's got technically he's got room for three

553
00:27:39.000 --> 00:27:41.680
<v Speaker 7>guys because they've got twelve on there plus the walk on.

554
00:27:41.880 --> 00:27:44.440
<v Speaker 7>That all three of the walk ons would be ones

555
00:27:44.440 --> 00:27:48.279
<v Speaker 7>that could count above the cap because of the the

556
00:27:48.599 --> 00:27:54.440
<v Speaker 7>NCAA House Settlement ruling with designating student athletes above the number,

557
00:27:54.720 --> 00:27:57.240
<v Speaker 7>So they do have some room there, But I mean,

558
00:27:57.279 --> 00:27:59.960
<v Speaker 7>there's not really anybody left in the portal that is

559
00:28:00.079 --> 00:28:04.119
<v Speaker 7>of any sort of value. And unless there were like

560
00:28:04.279 --> 00:28:07.559
<v Speaker 7>a coaching change that happened and someone went in the

561
00:28:07.559 --> 00:28:10.240
<v Speaker 7>portal that they could grab, they'd really just be adding

562
00:28:10.400 --> 00:28:13.480
<v Speaker 7>like either another international player or maybe some sort of

563
00:28:13.519 --> 00:28:16.640
<v Speaker 7>like a junior college or prep player. But again, it

564
00:28:16.640 --> 00:28:19.680
<v Speaker 7>would be from a development standpoint, And you wonder how

565
00:28:19.759 --> 00:28:23.119
<v Speaker 7>much more development guys you want when you're already going

566
00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:26.720
<v Speaker 7>to have seven freshmen on the team, and that's assuming

567
00:28:26.880 --> 00:28:30.400
<v Speaker 7>that the player from Germany ends up coming over. He

568
00:28:30.519 --> 00:28:33.799
<v Speaker 7>hasn't signed yet, but you just I don't know how

569
00:28:33.880 --> 00:28:36.960
<v Speaker 7>much you're going to have room for guys that aren't

570
00:28:36.960 --> 00:28:38.039
<v Speaker 7>going to play a lot.

571
00:28:38.960 --> 00:28:42.960
<v Speaker 2>Right Well, he's in Switzerland now, who knows, and he's

572
00:28:43.000 --> 00:28:45.160
<v Speaker 2>playing against some pretty good players, so who knows what

573
00:28:45.200 --> 00:28:48.400
<v Speaker 2>you'll see from Tommy I will see what happens with him.

574
00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:51.119
<v Speaker 2>What else softball? I know you don't cover it all

575
00:28:51.119 --> 00:28:53.160
<v Speaker 2>the time, but your your site does. What do you

576
00:28:53.200 --> 00:28:56.519
<v Speaker 2>think about Caitlin's situation given that Chip just signed his.

577
00:28:58.640 --> 00:29:02.319
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, I mean should be getting a contract extension in

578
00:29:02.319 --> 00:29:05.799
<v Speaker 7>my opinion. I mean, I know that people expect World

579
00:29:05.880 --> 00:29:09.519
<v Speaker 7>Series every year, but that's becoming harder and harder in

580
00:29:09.559 --> 00:29:13.240
<v Speaker 7>college softball with the investment from other conferences. And I

581
00:29:13.240 --> 00:29:17.079
<v Speaker 7>think Arizona still wants to be one of the premier programs,

582
00:29:17.319 --> 00:29:20.160
<v Speaker 7>so that is an expectation and a hope each year.

583
00:29:20.640 --> 00:29:24.000
<v Speaker 7>But I think maybe giving her a couple extra years,

584
00:29:24.079 --> 00:29:28.319
<v Speaker 7>just adding on to it for security purposes. I know

585
00:29:28.359 --> 00:29:32.559
<v Speaker 7>that when I've spoken with desire Read transfois the athletic director,

586
00:29:32.640 --> 00:29:35.559
<v Speaker 7>she is more of the belief that there isn't so

587
00:29:35.640 --> 00:29:39.000
<v Speaker 7>much of a need to do that because college sports

588
00:29:39.000 --> 00:29:43.279
<v Speaker 7>have become a year by year transactional thing that a

589
00:29:43.319 --> 00:29:46.000
<v Speaker 7>long contract doesn't really have as much of an impact

590
00:29:46.079 --> 00:29:49.440
<v Speaker 7>on recruiting. But I think there's still something to be

591
00:29:49.480 --> 00:29:52.119
<v Speaker 7>said for rewarding a coach for what they have been

592
00:29:52.119 --> 00:29:54.400
<v Speaker 7>able to do and the amount of money it would

593
00:29:54.480 --> 00:29:56.920
<v Speaker 7>cost if you needed to buy out a contract like

594
00:29:56.960 --> 00:30:00.599
<v Speaker 7>that for a sport like softball is not very large.

595
00:30:00.759 --> 00:30:03.880
<v Speaker 7>This isn't like giving This isn't like giving Brent Brennan

596
00:30:04.319 --> 00:30:07.200
<v Speaker 7>an extension right now and then having to pay him after,

597
00:30:07.559 --> 00:30:09.880
<v Speaker 7>you know, if they fire him another year into it

598
00:30:10.000 --> 00:30:13.839
<v Speaker 7>or something, or even you know, Heaven forbid Tommy Lloyd

599
00:30:13.880 --> 00:30:14.240
<v Speaker 7>and all that.

600
00:30:14.519 --> 00:30:15.319
<v Speaker 3>Those are different.

601
00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:19.279
<v Speaker 7>But but the smaller sports, I don't see there's I

602
00:30:19.279 --> 00:30:21.319
<v Speaker 7>don't think it costs you very much to an extent.

603
00:30:21.519 --> 00:30:23.720
<v Speaker 2>So you've been you mentioned that at least twice in

604
00:30:23.759 --> 00:30:26.279
<v Speaker 2>this conversation in the last two hours. Right, surely so

605
00:30:26.359 --> 00:30:28.119
<v Speaker 2>did he? Did she say that to a group of

606
00:30:28.160 --> 00:30:29.720
<v Speaker 2>you guys or just individuals?

607
00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:32.640
<v Speaker 3>No, I forget where I saw. I saw it somewhere,

608
00:30:32.640 --> 00:30:34.240
<v Speaker 3>and I forget where. It might have been Brian that

609
00:30:34.319 --> 00:30:35.480
<v Speaker 3>put it out on Socialeah.

610
00:30:35.640 --> 00:30:38.480
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, it might have actually been Michael who wrote about it.

611
00:30:38.480 --> 00:30:41.079
<v Speaker 7>But what Michael and I Michael left and I kind

612
00:30:41.079 --> 00:30:43.920
<v Speaker 7>of cornered her when we were in Chapel Hill for

613
00:30:44.000 --> 00:30:48.079
<v Speaker 7>the Super regionals and uh, you know, asking about Caitlin

614
00:30:48.119 --> 00:30:51.039
<v Speaker 7>and asking about Chip and she had said that when

615
00:30:51.079 --> 00:30:53.759
<v Speaker 7>there's something to announce, then it will be announced. But

616
00:30:53.880 --> 00:30:56.880
<v Speaker 7>that I had asked about going into the final year

617
00:30:56.920 --> 00:31:00.119
<v Speaker 7>of a contract and being having that security of knowing

618
00:31:00.119 --> 00:31:02.599
<v Speaker 7>that you're beyond that. And she said, I've never talked

619
00:31:02.640 --> 00:31:06.440
<v Speaker 7>to a recruit who cared about the contract status of

620
00:31:06.480 --> 00:31:09.519
<v Speaker 7>their coach. That may be true, but parents, I think,

621
00:31:09.599 --> 00:31:11.559
<v Speaker 7>do feel a different way, and that they want to

622
00:31:11.599 --> 00:31:14.960
<v Speaker 7>know that the person that they're entrusting their kid too

623
00:31:15.319 --> 00:31:17.519
<v Speaker 7>is going to be around more than one year. So

624
00:31:17.880 --> 00:31:20.279
<v Speaker 7>I think there is value in having that. And again,

625
00:31:20.359 --> 00:31:23.079
<v Speaker 7>if not that much money, that it would really make

626
00:31:23.160 --> 00:31:23.759
<v Speaker 7>much of a difference.

627
00:31:23.839 --> 00:31:24.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, no question.

628
00:31:24.519 --> 00:31:26.960
<v Speaker 2>I've never heard that before from anybody, saying that, you know,

629
00:31:27.279 --> 00:31:29.039
<v Speaker 2>you want to be more secure with who you're going

630
00:31:29.119 --> 00:31:30.839
<v Speaker 2>to be playing for, But you're right, and it goes

631
00:31:31.000 --> 00:31:33.920
<v Speaker 2>And that's kind of like assuming that the player said

632
00:31:33.920 --> 00:31:36.319
<v Speaker 2>player signs and then leaves up for one year to

633
00:31:36.400 --> 00:31:37.039
<v Speaker 2>somewhere else.

634
00:31:37.240 --> 00:31:41.039
<v Speaker 7>Sure, and in all the sports now, I mean, everything

635
00:31:41.119 --> 00:31:44.359
<v Speaker 7>is essentially a one year contract for all the players

636
00:31:44.480 --> 00:31:47.079
<v Speaker 7>unless they sign some sort of a deal beyond that.

637
00:31:47.440 --> 00:31:50.000
<v Speaker 7>But I believe even those have buyouts in them if

638
00:31:50.000 --> 00:31:52.519
<v Speaker 7>players want to leave, which is how you probably should

639
00:31:52.519 --> 00:31:56.519
<v Speaker 7>do it to prevent somebody from leaving after they've signed something,

640
00:31:56.920 --> 00:31:59.519
<v Speaker 7>just like you would with a coach. So I just

641
00:31:59.559 --> 00:32:05.000
<v Speaker 7>think while it's become a year by year thing, you

642
00:32:05.119 --> 00:32:07.519
<v Speaker 7>do want to try to lock in people that you

643
00:32:07.599 --> 00:32:10.440
<v Speaker 7>want to keep so that you don't give them incentive

644
00:32:10.519 --> 00:32:11.640
<v Speaker 7>to want to look elsewhere.

645
00:32:11.720 --> 00:32:14.720
<v Speaker 3>Sure, you know, as we kind of talked about it

646
00:32:14.720 --> 00:32:17.160
<v Speaker 3>with baseball wrapping up the year, one thing that we

647
00:32:17.279 --> 00:32:20.160
<v Speaker 3>forgot to mention is that Arizona will be looking for

648
00:32:20.200 --> 00:32:23.319
<v Speaker 3>a new pitching coach with Kevin Vans taking the San

649
00:32:23.359 --> 00:32:26.720
<v Speaker 3>Diego State head coaching job after the tremendous job he

650
00:32:26.759 --> 00:32:30.680
<v Speaker 3>did here in Tucson. When you look at the pitching

651
00:32:30.720 --> 00:32:35.960
<v Speaker 3>coaching situation and potential names out there, who comes to

652
00:32:36.039 --> 00:32:39.279
<v Speaker 3>mind and what kind of lists do you have in

653
00:32:39.319 --> 00:32:40.200
<v Speaker 3>mind at this point?

654
00:32:41.400 --> 00:32:44.799
<v Speaker 7>Well, I'm pretty sure that the job has already been filled.

655
00:32:45.119 --> 00:32:47.680
<v Speaker 7>The position is still listed on the website for an

656
00:32:47.720 --> 00:32:50.640
<v Speaker 7>assistant coach for baseball, and I think that might be

657
00:32:50.799 --> 00:32:52.480
<v Speaker 7>by state law it has to be open for a

658
00:32:52.519 --> 00:32:55.160
<v Speaker 7>certain amount of time. But all indications are that John

659
00:32:55.279 --> 00:32:59.200
<v Speaker 7>de Ruin, who had been the director of pitching Performance

660
00:32:59.240 --> 00:33:02.759
<v Speaker 7>and Strategy essentially the assistant pitching coach, is going to

661
00:33:02.759 --> 00:33:06.000
<v Speaker 7>be elevated to the pitching coach, and he was just

662
00:33:06.039 --> 00:33:09.839
<v Speaker 7>as involved and just as valuable to what's happened in

663
00:33:09.880 --> 00:33:14.759
<v Speaker 7>pitching here as Kevin Vance and he's stuck around. He's

664
00:33:14.799 --> 00:33:17.599
<v Speaker 7>not going with San Diego State, so he would be

665
00:33:17.640 --> 00:33:21.200
<v Speaker 7>in line to take that position, And from players and

666
00:33:21.480 --> 00:33:24.599
<v Speaker 7>parents that I've talked to who like on the pitching side,

667
00:33:25.119 --> 00:33:28.200
<v Speaker 7>him sticking around, along with another guy named Owen Cuff,

668
00:33:28.240 --> 00:33:30.599
<v Speaker 7>who was another pitching strategist who would probably then be

669
00:33:30.680 --> 00:33:34.599
<v Speaker 7>the assistant pitching coach. Those two sticking around has made

670
00:33:34.640 --> 00:33:37.839
<v Speaker 7>it so that I don't see any of their notable pitchers,

671
00:33:37.920 --> 00:33:41.599
<v Speaker 7>especially a guy like Kramkowski or Smith Bailey, going anywhere.

672
00:33:41.680 --> 00:33:44.839
<v Speaker 7>And there's still ten days left in the portal, but

673
00:33:44.920 --> 00:33:49.160
<v Speaker 7>Arizona has not lost one player of any significance to

674
00:33:49.400 --> 00:33:51.680
<v Speaker 7>the portal. The only guys that have left have been

675
00:33:52.119 --> 00:33:54.880
<v Speaker 7>bench players or players who just didn't play at all.

676
00:33:55.079 --> 00:33:58.039
<v Speaker 7>So I think that just speaks to the continuity that

677
00:33:58.039 --> 00:34:02.039
<v Speaker 7>they've been able to keep here, and Vance leaving had

678
00:34:02.079 --> 00:34:04.880
<v Speaker 7>the potential to affect that. But I think to Ruin

679
00:34:05.200 --> 00:34:08.000
<v Speaker 7>and Cuff sticking around is going to mean that these

680
00:34:08.000 --> 00:34:09.480
<v Speaker 7>pitchers are still going to be here next year.

681
00:34:09.559 --> 00:34:13.360
<v Speaker 2>So maybe final question we had lev on maybe before

682
00:34:13.440 --> 00:34:16.079
<v Speaker 2>the tournament or right right before, and we talked about

683
00:34:16.239 --> 00:34:18.239
<v Speaker 2>because he didn't go, you were able to get there?

684
00:34:18.280 --> 00:34:21.440
<v Speaker 2>Did you sit in on the LSU press conference? Did

685
00:34:21.440 --> 00:34:21.840
<v Speaker 2>you have time?

686
00:34:21.880 --> 00:34:22.800
<v Speaker 3>I know you were delayed.

687
00:34:24.320 --> 00:34:27.199
<v Speaker 7>I didn't go to the one before the tournament, but

688
00:34:27.239 --> 00:34:30.480
<v Speaker 7>I did go to one of the ones after the tournament,

689
00:34:30.480 --> 00:34:34.679
<v Speaker 7>and like during one of the postgame ones, and Ezra Amaker,

690
00:34:34.960 --> 00:34:38.199
<v Speaker 7>who's also on staff, was there beyond the time that

691
00:34:38.280 --> 00:34:41.239
<v Speaker 7>I was there and attended a couple others. And I mean,

692
00:34:41.280 --> 00:34:45.920
<v Speaker 7>it is interesting hearing Jay Johnson's talk when speaking just

693
00:34:45.960 --> 00:34:49.840
<v Speaker 7>in general, because he's so insightful about everything with baseball.

694
00:34:50.079 --> 00:34:50.840
<v Speaker 3>But it is funny.

695
00:34:51.159 --> 00:34:53.280
<v Speaker 7>There were a couple of times he had made mentions

696
00:34:53.320 --> 00:34:56.599
<v Speaker 7>of Arizona, either in a postgame press conference or whatnot,

697
00:34:56.960 --> 00:34:59.079
<v Speaker 7>one of which was after they had their game that

698
00:34:59.199 --> 00:35:01.599
<v Speaker 7>was suspended on one night and then finished the next day.

699
00:35:02.039 --> 00:35:04.400
<v Speaker 7>He was asked what he's learned about going through so

700
00:35:04.480 --> 00:35:08.760
<v Speaker 7>many weather delays while with LSU, and he said, if

701
00:35:08.760 --> 00:35:10.679
<v Speaker 7>there's one thing I'd learned, it's that the best weather

702
00:35:10.719 --> 00:35:13.760
<v Speaker 7>in college baseball is in Tucson, because he didn't really

703
00:35:13.760 --> 00:35:14.800
<v Speaker 7>have that situation here.

704
00:35:15.440 --> 00:35:17.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Well, the one question is nobody asked him. I

705
00:35:17.800 --> 00:35:20.440
<v Speaker 2>think Lev had it in the queue for Facebook, you know,

706
00:35:20.960 --> 00:35:23.840
<v Speaker 2>talk about his time here to and why he left,

707
00:35:24.119 --> 00:35:26.239
<v Speaker 2>or just that uncomfortable feeling a poil left.

708
00:35:27.320 --> 00:35:29.840
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, And I think if it had gotten to the

709
00:35:29.880 --> 00:35:32.559
<v Speaker 7>point where, I mean, certainly if they had played each other,

710
00:35:33.280 --> 00:35:36.639
<v Speaker 7>then that was going to have to come up. And

711
00:35:37.079 --> 00:35:39.960
<v Speaker 7>it really didn't the opportunity to ask something like that

712
00:35:40.239 --> 00:35:43.760
<v Speaker 7>after a game against some other team just it wasn't fitting.

713
00:35:44.280 --> 00:35:49.280
<v Speaker 7>But yeah, I mean I think that if I would imagine,

714
00:35:49.320 --> 00:35:52.400
<v Speaker 7>his answer would be something about how much he really

715
00:35:52.480 --> 00:35:55.519
<v Speaker 7>loved and had what he wanted to do there, but

716
00:35:55.840 --> 00:35:58.079
<v Speaker 7>he couldn't pass up on the opportunity to be at

717
00:35:58.079 --> 00:36:00.840
<v Speaker 7>a program like LSU. And there was also shown i

718
00:36:00.880 --> 00:36:03.320
<v Speaker 7>mean true titles in his first four years. That's the

719
00:36:03.360 --> 00:36:07.440
<v Speaker 7>fastest anybody's ever done that. Previously it had been eight years,

720
00:36:07.480 --> 00:36:09.119
<v Speaker 7>and one of the people that did that was Jerry

721
00:36:09.159 --> 00:36:12.519
<v Speaker 7>Kendall at Arizona. So I Jay made the right move

722
00:36:12.679 --> 00:36:16.239
<v Speaker 7>for what he wanted to accomplish, and at this pace,

723
00:36:16.320 --> 00:36:18.599
<v Speaker 7>he's going to go down if he continues as one

724
00:36:18.639 --> 00:36:20.519
<v Speaker 7>of the greatest coaches in college baseball history.

725
00:36:20.719 --> 00:36:23.519
<v Speaker 2>The last question just related to him. Obviously, he's done

726
00:36:23.519 --> 00:36:25.360
<v Speaker 2>a great job. I asked this so Michael, because I

727
00:36:25.360 --> 00:36:28.840
<v Speaker 2>didn't cover baseball. What is his secret, sauce? How does

728
00:36:28.840 --> 00:36:30.039
<v Speaker 2>he get his guys to play hard?

729
00:36:30.039 --> 00:36:30.320
<v Speaker 3>Pri him?

730
00:36:31.920 --> 00:36:37.239
<v Speaker 7>Jay Johnson, Yeah, you know that man lives and breathes

731
00:36:37.440 --> 00:36:42.039
<v Speaker 7>college baseball and everything is about it. Like he's married

732
00:36:42.280 --> 00:36:44.159
<v Speaker 7>and he has he may.

733
00:36:44.039 --> 00:36:44.960
<v Speaker 3>Have other interests.

734
00:36:45.079 --> 00:36:49.079
<v Speaker 7>I don't know, but it's all about baseball, Like he's

735
00:36:49.119 --> 00:36:53.039
<v Speaker 7>constantly talking about it, and he's he's looking at plans

736
00:36:53.079 --> 00:36:55.239
<v Speaker 7>and figuring out what he's going to be doing for

737
00:36:55.320 --> 00:36:58.920
<v Speaker 7>these guys, not just now but in the future along

738
00:36:58.920 --> 00:37:02.400
<v Speaker 7>with I think at Arizona he had to try to

739
00:37:02.440 --> 00:37:05.360
<v Speaker 7>get these guys to come here even though they were

740
00:37:05.360 --> 00:37:07.440
<v Speaker 7>going to get drafted, and he ran into the case

741
00:37:07.639 --> 00:37:10.880
<v Speaker 7>multiple times of a player he would identify as a

742
00:37:10.920 --> 00:37:13.440
<v Speaker 7>freshman er, sophomore in college who would then blow up

743
00:37:13.519 --> 00:37:16.920
<v Speaker 7>and they get drafted in the first round and there's

744
00:37:16.920 --> 00:37:19.400
<v Speaker 7>no way they're going to pass up that money. At LSU,

745
00:37:19.559 --> 00:37:23.119
<v Speaker 7>he's managed to because they have more resources be able

746
00:37:23.159 --> 00:37:25.719
<v Speaker 7>to get a lot of those guys to stay go

747
00:37:25.800 --> 00:37:28.039
<v Speaker 7>to college and then after two three years, like a

748
00:37:28.079 --> 00:37:30.719
<v Speaker 7>guy like Kate Anderson who through that complete game in

749
00:37:30.760 --> 00:37:33.280
<v Speaker 7>the first game of the championship series, He's a guy

750
00:37:33.320 --> 00:37:36.440
<v Speaker 7>that should have signed out of high school. But Jay

751
00:37:36.599 --> 00:37:39.239
<v Speaker 7>was able to convince him, come here for two years

752
00:37:39.280 --> 00:37:41.480

754
00:37:44.599 --> 00:37:47.920
<v Speaker 7>I think he's just he's very good at motivating and

755

756

<v Speaker 2>love through the eyes of twenty five former players, coaches

766
00:38:19.039 --> 00:38:21.559
<v Speaker 2>and friends to give insight to the coach and the

00:38:21.599 --> 00:38:24.440

00:42:44.360 --> 00:42:47.480
<v Speaker 2>things shall We're going to talk to the tomorrows again.

849
00:42:50.599 --> 00:42:52.559
<v Speaker 2>the weekend. You didn't know that they want to beat

850
00:42:52.559 --> 00:42:57.000
<v Speaker 2>Northern Arizona. So now they beat Northern Arizona and Phoenix Phoenix. Yep,

851
00:42:57.920 --> 00:42:59.920
<v Speaker 2>something's going on with that team. So we talk to

852
00:43:00.039 --> 00:43:05.280
<v Speaker 2>done this weekend as well. What else anything that Brian

853
00:43:05.320 --> 00:43:07.599
<v Speaker 2>said that struck you just the.

854
00:43:07.599 --> 00:43:10.159
<v Speaker 3>Thing about the pitching coach. I mean, it makes sense

855
00:43:10.199 --> 00:43:13.119
<v Speaker 3>to promote from what NF you have success and you know,

856
00:43:13.239 --> 00:43:15.719
<v Speaker 3>yes he helped out in the analytical role and stuff

857
00:43:15.760 --> 00:43:19.599
<v Speaker 3>like that in terms of that, but let's see how

858
00:43:19.599 --> 00:43:22.199
<v Speaker 3>it translates to him being a pitching coach.

859
00:43:22.280 --> 00:43:25.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, No, there's different. Yeah, there's different. It's like moving over,

860
00:43:25.679 --> 00:43:28.119
<v Speaker 2>you know, the seats assistant the head coach. Let me

861
00:43:28.119 --> 00:43:30.079
<v Speaker 2>ask you to. So now it makes sense. It's what

862
00:43:30.159 --> 00:43:33.519
<v Speaker 2>you were talking about with the contracts of being more yearly,

863
00:43:34.119 --> 00:43:36.119
<v Speaker 2>which kind of still doesn't kind of make sense, doesn't

864
00:43:36.119 --> 00:43:40.400
<v Speaker 2>feel right, but it does for the lower paid coaches. Yeah,

865
00:43:40.880 --> 00:43:42.239
<v Speaker 2>because you don't have to pay him a lot of

866
00:43:42.239 --> 00:43:44.400
<v Speaker 2>money in case he leave or whatever.

867
00:43:44.559 --> 00:43:47.679
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and you're talking about contracts on average, but like

868
00:43:49.840 --> 00:43:53.519
<v Speaker 3>maybe five hundred at most. And then you look at

869
00:43:53.559 --> 00:43:56.000
<v Speaker 3>sports like soccer, swimming, golf, like, I'm sure it's not

870
00:43:56.400 --> 00:43:59.119
<v Speaker 3>probably over one hundred thousand, but not much.

871
00:43:59.639 --> 00:44:01.639
<v Speaker 2>Totally different game than when I used to do it

872
00:44:01.639 --> 00:44:03.280
<v Speaker 2>when I was younger. I don't feel old, but I

873
00:44:03.280 --> 00:44:06.480
<v Speaker 2>guess I'm really old when it goes to this, because

874
00:44:06.480 --> 00:44:09.719
<v Speaker 2>it's just a new game. You know, stories change, We'll

875
00:44:09.760 --> 00:44:12.119
<v Speaker 2>see what happens. Brendan gets his guys here in about

876
00:44:12.119 --> 00:44:12.679
<v Speaker 2>a month.

877
00:44:14.039 --> 00:44:16.239
<v Speaker 3>In the July, and the July, some of them are

878
00:44:16.239 --> 00:44:18.840
<v Speaker 3>already on campus. Jayden Bradley is on campus right now

879
00:44:18.880 --> 00:44:19.280
<v Speaker 3>working out.

880
00:44:19.320 --> 00:44:21.079
<v Speaker 2>No, no, I'm talking about Brent.

881
00:44:21.199 --> 00:44:24.480
<v Speaker 3>Oh, Brent, Oh, my bad Brennan. Yes. And the July again,

882
00:44:24.559 --> 00:44:26.719
<v Speaker 3>some of them are already on campus doing team workouts

883
00:44:26.760 --> 00:44:29.199
<v Speaker 3>and stuff, but gearing up for training camp. And then

884
00:44:29.199 --> 00:44:31.639
<v Speaker 3>you're gonna have a lot of those incoming freshmen that

885
00:44:31.679 --> 00:44:35.239
<v Speaker 3>weren't here for spring football, seeing how that impacts the team.

886
00:44:35.280 --> 00:44:37.280
<v Speaker 3>A lot of offensive linement in that recruiting so.

887
00:44:37.719 --> 00:44:40.880
<v Speaker 2>Many how many twenty something twenty people total about like

888
00:44:41.039 --> 00:44:43.800
<v Speaker 2>you know, how twenty seven. How you think we'll actually

889
00:44:43.840 --> 00:44:50.519
<v Speaker 2>play the freshman Yeah, five, six, maybe ten, maybe it's

890
00:44:50.599 --> 00:44:51.719
<v Speaker 2>pretty ten maybe ten.

891
00:44:51.760 --> 00:44:53.719
<v Speaker 3>It's a lot. It's a lot. I mean you look

892
00:44:53.719 --> 00:44:56.119
<v Speaker 3>at that offensive line and when it's banned up already.

893
00:44:56.639 --> 00:44:58.840
<v Speaker 3>Uh too, it wasn't very good last year. He brought

894
00:44:58.880 --> 00:45:01.760
<v Speaker 3>in some transfers. So so out of all those freshmen

895
00:45:01.840 --> 00:45:06.039
<v Speaker 3>on the offensive line, if somebody stands out, they're gonna play. Yeah.

896
00:45:06.400 --> 00:45:08.679
<v Speaker 3>You saw it with Jonas alvin Ale when he stepped

897
00:45:08.679 --> 00:45:11.480
<v Speaker 3>foot on campus. Right away. It was like, oh, that

898
00:45:11.519 --> 00:45:13.679
<v Speaker 3>guy's a starter. I think his first game AGA in

899
00:45:13.679 --> 00:45:15.440
<v Speaker 3>San Diego. Say, he had a little trouble, he got

900
00:45:15.480 --> 00:45:17.880
<v Speaker 3>tired out with the heat was very hot that day

901
00:45:17.920 --> 00:45:20.079
<v Speaker 3>and he couldn't play the fourth quarter. But after that

902
00:45:20.280 --> 00:45:22.480
<v Speaker 3>he was a star Wars there at you know, guard

903
00:45:22.559 --> 00:45:25.639
<v Speaker 3>and tackle for Arizona. I never barely missed games.

904
00:45:25.800 --> 00:45:31.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no, remember that game is San Diego was really hot. Yeah, okay,

905
00:45:31.360 --> 00:45:33.159
<v Speaker 2>so that's good for them. I'm gonna be talking to

906
00:45:33.159 --> 00:45:36.280
<v Speaker 2>Brennan here for a story here not too long from now.

907
00:45:37.079 --> 00:45:38.599
<v Speaker 2>And he was great when we had him on. You

908
00:45:38.639 --> 00:45:40.840
<v Speaker 2>got him on and he was fantastic that day kind

909
00:45:40.840 --> 00:45:43.280
<v Speaker 2>of Have you talked to him anymore about your barbecue contest?

910
00:45:43.400 --> 00:45:44.920
<v Speaker 3>No? Not, Yeah, we got to do that though.

911
00:45:46.280 --> 00:45:48.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, if you want to call five two, oho, four one, six,

912
00:45:48.800 --> 00:45:51.119
<v Speaker 2>seventy four forty, just give us a quick call.

913
00:45:51.400 --> 00:45:53.239
<v Speaker 5>That was still one of the funniest interviews to me.

914
00:45:53.440 --> 00:45:55.199
<v Speaker 3>Which Brendan yeah, because he cussed.

915
00:45:55.280 --> 00:45:56.920
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

916
00:45:56.360 --> 00:45:58.320
<v Speaker 4>Well, I thought it was so funny that he was

917
00:45:58.320 --> 00:46:01.199
<v Speaker 4>like so caught off guard that he like, yeah, yeah,

918
00:46:01.239 --> 00:46:01.719
<v Speaker 4>you know what I mean.

919
00:46:01.760 --> 00:46:03.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Yeah, Well that's that's the kind of guy that

920
00:46:03.800 --> 00:46:06.360
<v Speaker 2>we want to know, you know, that's the people. That's

921
00:46:06.360 --> 00:46:07.519
<v Speaker 2>the guy that people don't know.

922
00:46:07.639 --> 00:46:11.119
<v Speaker 3>They don't want the button up person that's very straightforward.

923
00:46:11.159 --> 00:46:14.119
<v Speaker 2>And even if he's buttoned up just to show some

924
00:46:14.440 --> 00:46:17.800
<v Speaker 2>signs of not life, but signs of being one of

925
00:46:17.800 --> 00:46:20.079
<v Speaker 2>the dudes. And even though he is one of the dudes,

926
00:46:20.239 --> 00:46:23.119
<v Speaker 2>because he's not. He's not Macovict, right, and he's not

927
00:46:23.280 --> 00:46:27.280
<v Speaker 2>Jed Jed was I don't know, Jenna was selling.

928
00:46:27.079 --> 00:46:31.480
<v Speaker 3>You stuff that's different on the field than he was

929
00:46:31.599 --> 00:46:32.599
<v Speaker 3>in a press conference.

930
00:46:33.039 --> 00:46:36.519
<v Speaker 2>And Brandon's not that. He's just kind of like okay, yeah,

931
00:46:36.559 --> 00:46:38.159
<v Speaker 2>and he wasn't in the interview.

932
00:46:39.519 --> 00:46:41.079
<v Speaker 3>Most of the time. He feels like a happy, go

933
00:46:41.199 --> 00:46:44.719
<v Speaker 3>lucky guy like whatever. Yeah, people want to see more

934
00:46:44.719 --> 00:46:47.159
<v Speaker 3>than that. They don't want to see that. They don't

935
00:46:47.159 --> 00:46:50.440
<v Speaker 3>want to see the nonchalant, right, and he is different.

936
00:46:51.039 --> 00:46:54.519
<v Speaker 2>You ask you come on, yeah, show some fire. Yeah,

937
00:46:54.559 --> 00:46:56.199
<v Speaker 2>we'll see what happens. I mean, I think he learned

938
00:46:56.199 --> 00:46:58.400
<v Speaker 2>a lot this first year, especially here. And I also

939
00:46:58.480 --> 00:47:03.079
<v Speaker 2>think that the does party set some standards you have

940
00:47:03.159 --> 00:47:04.159
<v Speaker 2>to yeah.

941
00:47:04.000 --> 00:47:07.599
<v Speaker 3>And no question and again for him, she didn't hire you,

942
00:47:08.119 --> 00:47:13.039
<v Speaker 3>right if he hired you, so standards and there's the well,

943
00:47:13.360 --> 00:47:16.119
<v Speaker 3>you know, I didn't hire this guys, so why do

944
00:47:16.199 --> 00:47:18.840
<v Speaker 3>I care? I want to get my guy in there. Sure,

945
00:47:18.840 --> 00:47:21.519
<v Speaker 3>but you know, I think it would have been not

946
00:47:21.719 --> 00:47:25.440
<v Speaker 3>easy necessarily financially given areas under his financial situation, But

947
00:47:25.679 --> 00:47:28.119
<v Speaker 3>it would have been easy for an athletic director to

948
00:47:28.159 --> 00:47:30.639
<v Speaker 3>be like, you know what, by I'll just get my guy.

949
00:47:31.199 --> 00:47:34.159
<v Speaker 3>But that speaks volumes on what type of person Brennan is,

950
00:47:34.599 --> 00:47:37.440
<v Speaker 3>where you already have somewhat of a good relationship with

951
00:47:37.480 --> 00:47:40.199
<v Speaker 3>the direction of just personalness.

952
00:47:40.360 --> 00:47:42.360
<v Speaker 2>Sure, no, no, No, that there goes. That goes a

953
00:47:42.360 --> 00:47:45.360
<v Speaker 2>long way, and we'll see how long it goes. If

954
00:47:45.360 --> 00:47:46.519
<v Speaker 2>you go four and eight again.

955
00:47:46.400 --> 00:47:50.360
<v Speaker 3>Or whatever, then there's a problem. Yeah, I think I

956
00:47:50.360 --> 00:47:53.599
<v Speaker 3>think you're looking at five to seven win mark this upcoming.

957
00:47:53.679 --> 00:47:56.920
<v Speaker 2>They have to at least at least so here we

958
00:47:56.960 --> 00:47:59.239
<v Speaker 2>go in about a month, they'll get that going sort

959
00:47:59.239 --> 00:47:59.840
<v Speaker 2>of late June.

960
00:48:00.559 --> 00:48:03.960
<v Speaker 3>And for Noah, let's be honest, and he's been very

961
00:48:03.960 --> 00:48:06.239
<v Speaker 3>honest about it. The coaching stuff, has been honest about it.

962
00:48:06.679 --> 00:48:10.039
<v Speaker 3>He had that tremendous red shirt freshman year last year.

963
00:48:10.199 --> 00:48:12.599
<v Speaker 3>It was bad. It was bad, and not all that

964
00:48:12.679 --> 00:48:15.800
<v Speaker 3>was on him. Obviously, the line was bad. Not a

965
00:48:15.800 --> 00:48:18.719
<v Speaker 3>lot of weapons outside of Debtoro McMillan and things start

966
00:48:18.760 --> 00:48:22.280
<v Speaker 3>to pile up. But throughout the season there are plenty

967
00:48:22.320 --> 00:48:24.119
<v Speaker 3>of times where like you missed the wide open guy,

968
00:48:24.239 --> 00:48:26.559
<v Speaker 3>or you didn't even see that guy, or you waited

969
00:48:26.559 --> 00:48:28.639
<v Speaker 3>too long on that one and that comes back on

970
00:48:28.679 --> 00:48:31.480
<v Speaker 3>the quarterback. So you know, new offense that's going to

971
00:48:31.519 --> 00:48:35.440
<v Speaker 3>help out, sure, hopefully, but you got to prove this

972
00:48:35.480 --> 00:48:37.960
<v Speaker 3>is almost like a proven year for not only Brennan

973
00:48:38.000 --> 00:48:39.119
<v Speaker 3>but Noah as well.

974
00:48:39.360 --> 00:48:41.079
<v Speaker 2>So I think we've we've you and I have talked

975
00:48:41.079 --> 00:48:44.920
<v Speaker 2>about this. The gods right back, baseball, football, gods, football guds.

976
00:48:45.239 --> 00:48:50.079
<v Speaker 2>That season that brought that jet had. I think sometimes

977
00:48:50.239 --> 00:48:52.199
<v Speaker 2>things just work out that way, right, they had a

978
00:48:52.199 --> 00:48:56.599
<v Speaker 2>good season. He finally relinquished the job to to Noah

979
00:48:56.719 --> 00:48:59.280
<v Speaker 2>or he got the job. Well, you know, whatever we

980
00:48:59.360 --> 00:49:02.159
<v Speaker 2>do happen. He had to do it and it turned

981
00:49:02.159 --> 00:49:04.440
<v Speaker 2>out to be what it was, and then he leaves.

982
00:49:04.840 --> 00:49:08.159
<v Speaker 2>Things just worked out weird sometimes sometimes Troy, you get

983
00:49:08.159 --> 00:49:11.239
<v Speaker 2>the girl without you, without you know, without you having

984
00:49:11.280 --> 00:49:13.880
<v Speaker 2>to work your ass off to get the girl. You

985
00:49:13.880 --> 00:49:15.679
<v Speaker 2>know what I'm saying. Just didn't work out that way.

986
00:49:15.960 --> 00:49:18.559
<v Speaker 2>And now a year later, it didn't work out that way.

987
00:49:19.480 --> 00:49:22.239
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and you know, some things go right, recruiting.

988
00:49:21.800 --> 00:49:24.440
<v Speaker 2>Goes well right, and everything did that year.

989
00:49:25.280 --> 00:49:28.079
<v Speaker 3>I mean they It wasn't like rich Rod's ten and

990
00:49:28.360 --> 00:49:30.119
<v Speaker 3>ten and four season, where you know, you get a

991
00:49:30.159 --> 00:49:34.239
<v Speaker 3>bounce here, a lucky play here the hill Mary happened

992
00:49:34.239 --> 00:49:36.920
<v Speaker 3>that year. The kick against Washington where they should have

993
00:49:36.960 --> 00:49:38.800
<v Speaker 3>just ran out the football and they built the ball

994
00:49:38.800 --> 00:49:40.880
<v Speaker 3>and they fumbled the ball. A lot of things went

995
00:49:40.960 --> 00:49:46.119
<v Speaker 3>right for Arizona ones. Noah took over and really played. Yeah,

996
00:49:46.199 --> 00:49:50.119
<v Speaker 3>they dominated teams, They were dominant. They were a legitimately

997
00:49:50.199 --> 00:49:54.679
<v Speaker 3>good team. So things work out. But that was a

998
00:49:54.880 --> 00:49:57.000
<v Speaker 3>very good, well rounded team. Yeah.

999
00:49:57.079 --> 00:50:00.320
<v Speaker 2>Well yeah, and almost in spite of themselves, because again

1000
00:50:00.360 --> 00:50:01.880
<v Speaker 2>he didn't want to relinquish.

1001
00:50:02.920 --> 00:50:05.960
<v Speaker 3>And if you don't that Arizona teams goes six and six,

1002
00:50:06.039 --> 00:50:08.920
<v Speaker 3>it doesn't turn out the way it does. Guess who's

1003
00:50:08.920 --> 00:50:11.480
<v Speaker 3>still the coach? Maybe what?

1004
00:50:13.000 --> 00:50:13.119
<v Speaker 2>No?

1005
00:50:13.119 --> 00:50:15.079
<v Speaker 3>No, But here's my thing, And it could have been

1006
00:50:15.079 --> 00:50:17.559
<v Speaker 3>a worse situation for Arizona. Remember U c l A

1007
00:50:17.679 --> 00:50:21.119
<v Speaker 3>opened up late after chip Kelly left. He's a California guys.

1008
00:50:21.199 --> 00:50:22.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but I don't know if.

1009
00:50:22.159 --> 00:50:24.599
<v Speaker 6>He had already been at u c l A too,

1010
00:50:24.960 --> 00:50:27.440
<v Speaker 6>But would of coordinator, would you Rey hire.

1011
00:50:27.480 --> 00:50:32.119
<v Speaker 2>Mean, if he was mediocre here, if the situation were different,

1012
00:50:32.239 --> 00:50:32.519
<v Speaker 2>so you.

1013
00:50:32.440 --> 00:50:34.960
<v Speaker 3>Would have if you would hire a running back coach

1014
00:50:35.000 --> 00:50:37.599
<v Speaker 3>that has never had coordinating decision like U C l A.

1015
00:50:37.960 --> 00:50:41.119
<v Speaker 3>They made they made mistakes. Well and I know it's

1016
00:50:41.119 --> 00:50:43.920
<v Speaker 3>an alumni, but I'm just saying, if Jed was still

1017
00:50:43.920 --> 00:50:47.599
<v Speaker 3>at Arizona chip Ley's when he does, let's say they

1018
00:50:47.639 --> 00:50:49.599
<v Speaker 3>hired Jed, you're probably getting off of you know, you're

1019
00:50:49.599 --> 00:50:52.119
<v Speaker 3>probably getting You're getting all those kids because they're Southern

1020
00:50:52.119 --> 00:50:52.960
<v Speaker 3>California kids.

1021
00:50:53.320 --> 00:50:58.079
<v Speaker 2>Well again, timing in circumstances, if you and stuff like that.

1022
00:50:58.119 --> 00:50:59.679
<v Speaker 3>But like that's why this place.

1023
00:51:00.159 --> 00:51:02.519
<v Speaker 2>Uh, we've found lightning in the bottle for a nice

1024
00:51:02.599 --> 00:51:05.519
<v Speaker 2>year and here we are. Yeah, and then didn't the

1025
