00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 1: What's up hammer Time?

63
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:56,159
Speaker 8: Anytime we have basketball on my television before the hour

64
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,680
of like two o'clock Eastern, like when I can wake

65
00:02:58,759 --> 00:03:02,479
up and ten thirty I had Baylor Arizona State on,

66
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,400
It's a good day because it's basketball all day, every

67
00:03:06,479 --> 00:03:07,800
day for the rest of the month.

68
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 5: And I'm known, Yes, indeed, plenty of whop will be

69
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,879
brought to us in March Madness, and we hope that

70
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:20,919
the college basketball gods favor Brigham this year.

71
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 1: How do you feel right now?

72
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:26,159
Speaker 5: Your level of optimism as BYU enters this March Madness

73
00:03:26,159 --> 00:03:30,800
season Big Twelve Tournament starting up tonight today, How you feeling.

74
00:03:31,439 --> 00:03:34,919
Speaker 8: I honestly thought Kansas State was the number one team

75
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,639
you wanted to play if you were a Big Twelve

76
00:03:36,639 --> 00:03:38,759
Tournament team like you're. If you're playing anybody in the

77
00:03:38,759 --> 00:03:41,360
Big Twelve Tournament, you want to play Kansas State. I'm

78
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:43,879
watching Utah and Cincinnati, and I think they may take

79
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,039
the cake, take the award for a team you most

80
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,280
want to play, because both of them were playing horrible

81
00:03:49,639 --> 00:03:52,000
in the first half right now. Cincinnati didn't even have

82
00:03:52,039 --> 00:03:55,080
ten points in the first ten minutes. Cincinnati and Utah

83
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:57,680
are both they're fighting for their lives right now.

84
00:03:58,199 --> 00:04:00,759
Speaker 1: Kansas State, I think, is an easy I should say easy.

85
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:02,319
I don't want to jinx anybody.

86
00:04:02,319 --> 00:04:05,840
Speaker 8: Actually, Kansas State should be a winnable game. I think

87
00:04:05,879 --> 00:04:09,199
West Virginia is also a winnable game. Then we'll see

88
00:04:09,199 --> 00:04:12,520
what happens after that. I think if you win both

89
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,919
of those games and you make your third game competitive,

90
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,879
I'm good. I'm breathing easy. You just you feel like

91
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,959
over the last couple of games, especially in games where

92
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,399
BYU has been able to play small ball, which is

93
00:04:28,439 --> 00:04:30,879
so interesting because I don't think coming into the season

94
00:04:30,959 --> 00:04:35,240
we felt like the front court was a glaring issue

95
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,279
that kind of burst off the TV. You were thinking

96
00:04:37,319 --> 00:04:39,560
about other things. We were thinking about the guard play,

97
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,079
who's gonna be the point guard and all those things.

98
00:04:41,959 --> 00:04:44,600
But when b what you has been able to play small,

99
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,560
they have found success. I do think against Kansas State

100
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,519
they're gonna be able to play small. I think against

101
00:04:50,519 --> 00:04:51,560
West Virginia they're gonna be.

102
00:04:51,519 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: Able to play small.

103
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,879
Speaker 8: But going forward after that and then depending on who

104
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,639
you get in the NCAA tournament, that's where things will

105
00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:58,800
get interesting.

106
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:00,639
Speaker 1: So we'll have to see how.

107
00:05:00,519 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 8: Things go big wise, small wise, and what matchups get

108
00:05:04,399 --> 00:05:06,680
thrown at them. So they can kind of develop a

109
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,959
couple of different tools in the tool belt getting ready

110
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:10,120
for the NCAA tournament.

111
00:05:10,319 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 1: Love it.

112
00:05:11,199 --> 00:05:13,439
Speaker 5: I can't wait to see what this BAU basketball team

113
00:05:13,439 --> 00:05:13,720
could do.

114
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:15,439
Speaker 1: Hope is eternal.

115
00:05:15,879 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 5: It it's it. It comes forth the eternal from Kugarnation.

116
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,879
In my opinion in March, and we you know, we

117
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:27,920
tend to b YU in general does not meet the bar,

118
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,920
but maybe they can make doubters into believers. Some good

119
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,839
momentum with that win over Texas Tech. Let's hope the

120
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:39,480
BA basketball team has found this, you know, the rotation

121
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,360
that they need. The third iteration is ky why you

122
00:05:43,399 --> 00:05:46,639
know labeled. It is a good iteration. And they found

123
00:05:46,639 --> 00:05:50,199
their identity, their cohesion, their chemistry, their culture once again

124
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,240
in March, and hopefully they're trending in the right direction.

00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 6: First off, that was the travel getting in there to Kansas.

171
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,519
I saw yesterday the airport shut down.

172
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:15,199
Speaker 4: Was everything good?

173
00:08:15,279 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 6: Smooth in terms of travel into case.

174
00:08:17,839 --> 00:08:20,439
Speaker 10: Yeah, no, we were a little delayed getting out of there,

175
00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,199
but out of provo.

176
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:22,639
Speaker 1: But yeah, it was.

177
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 11: It was all good.

178
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,959
Speaker 6: What's the confidence of this team after a big win?

179
00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,639
Speaker 11: Good? You know, And I think the reason of how

180
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,000
we won that game, you know, which is the effort

181
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,600
was probably as good as it's been all season long.

182
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 10: Thought we made a lot of simple plays offensively, and

183
00:08:40,759 --> 00:08:42,559
then you know, our commitment.

184
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,399
Speaker 11: To the to rebounds some things we've been talking about

185
00:08:44,399 --> 00:08:44,799
all year.

186
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 10: But just I think that that gives the guys confidence

187
00:08:49,519 --> 00:08:51,120
because of how we were able to get that win.

188
00:08:51,879 --> 00:08:54,799
Speaker 6: When do you you know, you were just talking moments ago,

189
00:08:54,879 --> 00:08:58,399
hear your initial impressions on the glass floor and then

190
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,399
the big twelveth decision to to roll this sound for

191
00:09:01,759 --> 00:09:03,759
this big event with your thoughts on the glass floor.

192
00:09:04,399 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 10: Yeah, it was it was cool. You know, it's it's

193
00:09:06,519 --> 00:09:08,759
unique for sure. I think there's there are two teams

194
00:09:08,759 --> 00:09:11,639
I think in Europe who's it's there. It's their floor

195
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,960
for all their games, and so I feel like it's

196
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:15,679
it's been tested well enough.

197
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 11: But loving that stuff's above my pay grade. We just

198
00:09:18,639 --> 00:09:20,279
we just come up and try to try to win

199
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:21,399
the game, regardless with the.

200
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:25,879
Speaker 6: Floors, your thoughts on you know how you talked a

201
00:09:25,879 --> 00:09:27,840
little bit about after after the Texas Tech game, how

202
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,840
it has just been kind of a challenging year. You

203
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:32,679
almost feel like it's a new start now with the

204
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,799
postseason here and just kind of everything that's happened in

205
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:37,360
the past that's in the past and now it's a

206
00:09:37,399 --> 00:09:37,879
new season.

207
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:39,279
Speaker 11: Yeah.

208
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 10: I think, you know, every every postseason is kind of

209
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:46,200
like that. You know, I think for our guys understanding

210
00:09:46,879 --> 00:09:49,519
what happened in that Texas game, like Texas Tech game,

211
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,440
like I just mentioned is the thing that we want

212
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,000
to sort of be our you know, our identity, our

213
00:09:54,039 --> 00:09:57,000
battle cry as we move into this postseason and just play,

214
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,360
you know, to that. And I think there was a

215
00:09:59,399 --> 00:10:02,200
lot of guys contributed to that win, and this time

216
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:02,919
of year, that's all.

217
00:10:02,799 --> 00:10:03,559
Speaker 11: That really matters.

218
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,960
Speaker 6: A J was named Big Twelve Freshman of the Year.

219
00:10:08,639 --> 00:10:11,840
Your thoughts on him getting to that recognition and and

220
00:10:12,039 --> 00:10:13,919
being hew as one of the best players not only

221
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:15,039
country but the leagues.

222
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,679
Speaker 10: Yeah, uh, you know, happy for him, Happy for Richie

223
00:10:18,759 --> 00:10:21,159
and Rob to also get named to the All League teams.

224
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:26,240
Well deserved honors for all of them.

225
00:10:24,799 --> 00:10:24,960
Speaker 1: You know.

226
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 10: At the same time, it's a testament to the rest

227
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,960
of the guys that were able to, you know, help

228
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,519
in those awards, I think individual awards and team awards

229
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:33,840
as well.

230
00:10:33,879 --> 00:10:35,639
Speaker 11: So happy for our guys you get recognized.

231
00:10:35,759 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 6: Do you think that with a J where has he

232
00:10:38,879 --> 00:10:40,879
improved the most from the beginning of the year.

233
00:10:40,919 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 11: You think, I think his approach. I thought he hit

234
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,360
a little bit of a lull midway through.

235
00:10:47,399 --> 00:10:50,039
Speaker 10: I thought I thought he really stepped up kind of

236
00:10:50,039 --> 00:10:53,320
once he got past that. But just his I think

237
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,039
where he's improved is just his decision making. You know,

238
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,639
I think he's he's with the different iterations of our team.

239
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,759
I think spacing has been a little bit different based

240
00:11:01,799 --> 00:11:04,159
on who's out there. He's done a good job of adjusting.

241
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,240
I think last game in particular, you know, I thought

242
00:11:07,279 --> 00:11:09,559
he was just making simple plays man, and as great

243
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,399
as he is, when he makes a simple play, it

244
00:11:12,399 --> 00:11:14,279
opens the floor up, you know, for him to do

245
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,519
what he does, which his attack, and so those are

246
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,440
areas where I've been impressed the decision making.

247
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,960
Speaker 11: I think, you know, his ability to guard as well.

248
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:25,799
Speaker 10: You know, I think he's somebody that you can put

249
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:30,080
on multiple styles of players. He can chase shooters around

250
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,159
like we saw at Iowa State. He can play pick

251
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,679
and roll defense. You can put him on a post

252
00:11:34,799 --> 00:11:36,159
up guy. So he's very versive.

253
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 11: I think he's grown in that area as well.

254
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 1: Simple play.

255
00:11:41,639 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 5: So yeah, there's a number of players that I think

256
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:48,159
have developed kind of late in the season. And what

257
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,639
you really need in this game is there's there's two

258
00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,559
guys in particular, it's kind of boo, we upbring him

259
00:11:54,039 --> 00:11:57,000
Lexikostik needs to be able to start and start hot

260
00:11:57,039 --> 00:12:00,000
in space the floor and hit some freeze and hopefully

261
00:12:00,159 --> 00:12:03,279
keep uh you know, kind of the the doubles and

262
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:07,759
the blitzes against Rob and aj at Bay.

263
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 1: That's ideal. Uh.

264
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,399
Speaker 5: We need floor spacing, and it would be nice if

265
00:12:12,399 --> 00:12:14,639
a Canard would do the same thing right and in

266
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:15,960
space the floor a little bit.

267
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 3: Uh.

268
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,799
Speaker 5: And and so that's kind of my initial assessment. And

269
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:24,039
then uh, I think Kadeem needs to continue to play

270
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,919
great defense and rebound and hopefully and uh you know,

271
00:12:28,919 --> 00:12:32,159
you know, putbacks and and maybe some mid range stuff

272
00:12:32,279 --> 00:12:35,120
like hopefully he's effective enough to be dangerous.

273
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,519
Speaker 1: He is not a priminent threat. Uh, he's do k

274
00:12:38,799 --> 00:12:40,360
off the bounce. Uh.

275
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,279
Speaker 5: He deems just got to be great and bring energy

276
00:12:42,279 --> 00:12:44,799
and be that energizer Bundy the solar battery is Jackson

277
00:12:44,879 --> 00:12:47,639
likes to call him on the court. So uh, I

278
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,120
think you have a tighter rotation most most likely, Uh

279
00:12:51,159 --> 00:12:52,840
and uh that's what I'd like to see in the

280
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:56,480
Big twelve tournament those two, uh, specifically stepping up taking

281
00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:57,360
on a larger role.

282
00:12:57,759 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 1: Actually, those three Canard gotta be better.

283
00:13:00,399 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 5: We brought you in and b why you allocated a

284
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,480
decent amount of resources to you, Kennard, and you've been

285
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,879
inconsistent at best. Well, I'm sure Kay takes a little

286
00:13:08,879 --> 00:13:11,279
bit of the blame for trying to put him into

287
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,559
a situation where he maybe wasn't thriving.

288
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:14,519
Speaker 1: It is what it is.

289
00:13:14,759 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 5: Figure it out, put forth great effort at value where

290
00:13:17,639 --> 00:13:20,480
you can it. Hit some shots for the love of Pete,

291
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,639
LEXI do your thing. You got a pure stroke, maybe

292
00:13:23,639 --> 00:13:27,279
the pure stroke we've seen in a minute, and Kadeem,

293
00:13:27,399 --> 00:13:29,320
you got to bring that energy on the defense side

294
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,720
of the ball. Any thoughts there Brett always bringing the hammer,

295
00:13:31,759 --> 00:13:34,240
anything that stood out to you from the Ky commentary.

296
00:13:34,639 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 1: I'll just be curious how much we see Abdullah Ahmed.

297
00:13:38,279 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 8: It feels like the last couple of games they've I

298
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,559
don't know, I don't know if they've realized that they

299
00:13:43,639 --> 00:13:48,799
played better without him, but certainly certain situations warranted not

300
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:50,039
playing him again.

301
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:51,679
Speaker 1: I talked a little bit earlier about.

302
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,399
Speaker 8: How like they it feels like if they're able to

303
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:58,279
play small, they find their most success because they really

304
00:13:58,279 --> 00:14:02,039
don't even have anybody on this rock who's tiny, Like

305
00:14:02,799 --> 00:14:05,320
I mean, even Rob Wright is probably your only one,

306
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,120
but he's athletic enough that it makes up for it.

307
00:14:07,159 --> 00:14:09,399
Like you're playing a bunch of guys that are running

308
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,039
somewhere between six' three and six, seven and all of

309
00:14:13,039 --> 00:14:15,960
them are strong enough to handle their Own so, like

310
00:14:16,399 --> 00:14:18,399
you may not have the tallest guy in the, world

311
00:14:18,399 --> 00:14:21,240
but your average heightened BUILD i feel like allows you

312
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,279
to be athletic enough to play.

313
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 1: Small just a question of who's going to force you

314
00:14:25,159 --> 00:14:27,639
to do anything.

315
00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 8: ELSE i Liked Kevin young's comment on a never note about.

316
00:14:32,639 --> 00:14:33,799
Speaker 1: Just The Big twelve.

317
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 8: AWARDS i don't think they care that much about whether

318
00:14:38,519 --> 00:14:41,000
or NOT aj One player of The. YEAR i liked

319
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,320
That richie got a shout, out, though BECAUSE i think

320
00:14:44,039 --> 00:14:47,960
we've kind of turned our brains off for keeping track

321
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,399
Of Richie, saunders given the fact we haven't seen him

322
00:14:50,399 --> 00:14:53,440
on the court in over a. Month but it is

323
00:14:53,559 --> 00:14:59,879
still worth mentioning his season was impactful enough that ever

324
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,120
one who voted, said we know we haven't Seen Richie,

325
00:15:03,159 --> 00:15:05,960
saunders he still deserves to be on an All big twelve,

326
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:06,840
team WHICH i think is really.

327
00:15:06,879 --> 00:15:08,879
Speaker 1: Important Obviously Rob wright's on that.

328
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 8: List to your, point, though Like cannard's got to step

329
00:15:13,679 --> 00:15:15,440
up and, shoot and obviously we know A lexi's got

330
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:16,000
to step up and.

331
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:21,799
Speaker 1: Shoot but if you go back and, look bou.

332
00:15:21,519 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 8: Has not shot the three ball well over the last few,

333
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,600
games even That Texas tech, game they didn't shoot the

334
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,279
three ball. Well they just happened to make the ones

335
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,120
that they absolutely had to.

336
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,399
Speaker 1: Have if you remember The Canard.

337
00:15:33,159 --> 00:15:35,679
Speaker 8: Davis, shot that was a little bit of the Basketball

338
00:15:35,759 --> 00:15:39,480
god sending help because that one wasn't pretty, either bounced upping.

339
00:15:39,559 --> 00:15:43,320
IN i don't know as good as boy you played

340
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,000
AS i think that was like forty eight paint. POINTS

341
00:15:46,039 --> 00:15:48,639
i think in that win Over texas Tex as good

342
00:15:48,639 --> 00:15:51,720
as that, IS i don't know how far you can

343
00:15:51,759 --> 00:15:54,360
go if you can't find a way to shoot the

344
00:15:54,399 --> 00:15:59,480
three ball, efficiently and especially early in that, game if

345
00:15:59,519 --> 00:16:02,200
you don't make early, threes then you don't space the

346
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:04,360
floor because they, say, well we're gonna let you keep

347
00:16:04,399 --> 00:16:06,960
taking those and we're gonna keep blitzing a j until

348
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,320
you give us a reason to. Space, differently finding a

349
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:16,120
way to hit threes early primarily Between Alexi coastitch And Canard.

350
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 1: Davis, yes that is.

351
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 8: Paramount that has gotta be priority number one because if

352
00:16:21,039 --> 00:16:23,120
you do, that you stretch the. Floor the rest of

353
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:26,919
your offense becomes easier and everything else about the game becomes.

354
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 1: Easier as they go, Forward ronald the three man.

355
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 5: Weaver give me some perspective, here give me some, truth

356
00:16:31,279 --> 00:16:33,360
give me some, knowledge give me some gems.

357
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:35,879
Speaker 7: To comment on What brett said, first he had the

358
00:16:35,879 --> 00:16:37,879
three ball is. Critical, BEN i keep saying, this and

359
00:16:37,879 --> 00:16:40,080
we've seen it last. Year do you remember the tournament

360
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:44,120
the guys that got Going Trevin nille, Obviously mawa Mag

361
00:16:44,159 --> 00:16:46,879
and why the three? Ball this Is Alexi coastache In

362
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,120
Canar davis's. Tournament it's a neutral. Site there is no

363
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,840
home fan. BASE i know that it can feel like

364
00:16:52,879 --> 00:16:54,919
that to a, degree But, ben and this is a shooter's.

365
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:56,919
Gym it is Like i'm not trying to go, there

366
00:16:56,919 --> 00:17:00,399
but this IS, covid this IS nba like it's it's

367
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,000
for that. Purpose bo's played very well in neutral site,

368
00:17:03,039 --> 00:17:05,000
games so you would hope that they could get back

369
00:17:05,039 --> 00:17:07,400
to doing that as he did against The clemsons The

370
00:17:07,799 --> 00:17:10,559
miami's not, granted you Had Dawson baker in those. Situations

371
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,319
things were a little bit. Different but you hope that

372
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,759
you can perform and play and That canard who has

373
00:17:14,799 --> 00:17:17,440
been playmaking With richie out And alexi who has started

374
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,160
to get in fuego a little. Bit you hope that

375
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,599
he can get going very very. Early the thing that

376
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,880

377
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:25,759

386
00:17:44,799 --> 00:17:48,559
Madness IF aj is trying to DRAW nba, fouls if

387
00:17:48,599 --> 00:17:50,880
you get contact and the official doesn't do it and

388
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,960
he just throws it up and Looks, ben they're gonna lose.

00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,400
It they're gonna lose tonight and they're gonna lose and

390
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,039
it's gonna Be age's fault AND i will BLAME.

391
00:17:56,079 --> 00:17:58,799
Speaker 3: Aj he's done that way too. Much kevin's already called him.

392
00:17:58,799 --> 00:18:01,279
Speaker 7: Out this is a time time where let's see if

393
00:18:01,279 --> 00:18:03,759
AJ's really learned play through that. Contact they don't give

394
00:18:03,759 --> 00:18:05,559
it to, you then knock somebody down and lay the ball.

395
00:18:05,599 --> 00:18:07,559
Up er get all the way to the, basket AND

396
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,839
i want to see IT'S aj really Pod is he really?

397
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:11,519
Speaker 1: Mad you?

398
00:18:11,559 --> 00:18:13,680
Speaker 7: Know Because brett, SAID i don't think they, care you

399
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,119
know ABOUT aj Winning play of the. Year guess what players?

400
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,720
Do players? Care they got, emotions they got. EGOS aj

401
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,720
should take very much pride and be upset the entire

402
00:18:23,759 --> 00:18:26,160
tournament until they get balanced or until you can try

403
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,759
to See arizona if they if that's, possible WHICH i don't.

404
00:18:28,759 --> 00:18:30,960
THINK i don't think it will, be to play his

405
00:18:31,079 --> 00:18:33,920
best basketball and Says i'm gonna show all you coaches

406
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:34,720
While i'm the player of the.

407
00:18:34,759 --> 00:18:35,680
Speaker 3: Year now we don't know who.

408
00:18:35,519 --> 00:18:37,680
Speaker 7: The coach is voted, for BUT ag needs to look at,

409
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,480
everybody every, player every. Coach you're an enemy because you

410
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:42,759
didn't vote, me and use that as motivation whatever needs

411
00:18:42,799 --> 00:18:45,200
to get you fired up for this. Game BUT i

412
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,880
want to SEE aj play Like i'm not gonna be,

413
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,400
denied and don't try to dunk on everybody and not

414
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,039
try to draw fouls that aren't gonna be called ben

415
00:18:53,079 --> 00:18:55,640
BECAUSE i think that will be the. Downfall along with

416
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,359
What brett, said if they don't make, threes that will get,

417
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,599
them and then if they then we already know defensive

418
00:19:00,599 --> 00:19:02,599
rebounding for this team can go at any. Moment BUT

419
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,839
i think you can overcome even stretches of that if

420
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,119
you're able to not do those other. Things AND i

421
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,200
think it falls on aj the top. King you, know

422
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:10,559
we will.

423
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 3: Last jerem jordanis, later but it sounds like he's. There

424
00:19:13,279 --> 00:19:14,000
we don't. Know we'll get a.

425
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,400
Speaker 7: Confirmation but If richie is, there they are two and

426
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:17,799
oho with him on the, bench AND i think that

427
00:19:17,839 --> 00:19:18,319
can help as.

428
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:19,400
Speaker 3: Well so let's see what happens.

429
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:23,640
Speaker 1: Tonight any more sound from? Ky are we done with?

430
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,279
That all? Right let's get back to, it.

431
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,759
Speaker 5: Ky head coach B y you mitched basketball uh down

432
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:33,799
down at the or up at The big Twelve Basketball,

433
00:19:33,839 --> 00:19:37,960
tournament commenting on his squad and the attorneys.

434
00:19:37,079 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 6: And keeping it simple was the theme Against Texas. Tech

435
00:19:40,039 --> 00:19:42,519
is that the approach again coming into this?

436
00:19:42,559 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 10: Tournament it, is it, is AND i think it allows

437
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,400
our guys to just play hard without thinking as. Much

438
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,000
it allows the coaches, to you, know hold these guys

439
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,519
accountable for very simple things and just let their. Effort

440
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,920
instead of making a scheme, change just challenge the. Effort

441
00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:00,319
and that's Been that was a good. Recipe the other

442
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,799
night you, know And Kansas state is going to present

443
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:06,200
different challenges right than uh What Texas tech.

444
00:20:06,279 --> 00:20:08,799
Speaker 11: Did but if your backbone is just you.

445
00:20:08,759 --> 00:20:11,559
Speaker 10: Know that consistent effort and then on the offensive side

446
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,359
making simple, plays we feel good about that.

447
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 11: Recipe should we.

448
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:19,640
Speaker 6: Expect an up and down offensive game against K? State

449
00:20:19,839 --> 00:20:21,559
or how do you see this game playing?

450
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 10: Out, well they like to get up and, DOWN i,

451
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,519
mean particularly after missus they really they really do it

452
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,680
as good or better job than any team in a.

453
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,559
Country so our transition defense has to be, good you,

454
00:20:31,599 --> 00:20:33,599
know our a billion offensive rebound's got to be.

455
00:20:33,519 --> 00:20:34,839
Speaker 11: Good to try to slow them. Down.

456
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,799
Speaker 10: Uh so you, know you, know you never know what

457
00:20:37,839 --> 00:20:41,880
to expect in a tournament style. Game but but less

458
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:43,720
less about you know what we think the game is

459
00:20:43,759 --> 00:20:45,799
going to be liking more about our approach to this,

460
00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,160
game understanding that the multiple efforts and the and the

461
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:51,839
simplicity that we talked about is really what we're focused.

462
00:20:51,839 --> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 6: On every team in this league has such great. Talent

463
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,200
we've seen it across the. BOARD i think sometimes people

464
00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,680
forget how just deep anyone can get you in this.

465
00:20:59,759 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 5: LEAGUE.

466
00:21:00,039 --> 00:21:02,640
Speaker 6: Pj haggerty posted such a tough. Challenge your thoughts on

467
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:04,880
going up against him a second. Time, yeah a great,

468
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:05,480
player great.

469
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,839
Speaker 10: Score you, know he's got good, size doesn't get sped,

470
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,319
up can get to his, spots and they've got they've

471
00:21:10,319 --> 00:21:12,880
guys shooting around him as. Well so he's done a

472
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,640
good job all year in a situation where it's been

473
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:19,200
a little up and down in their program as, well

474
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:22,279
but he's been, consistent you, know in terms of scoring a.

475
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,079
Basketball so we'll have to do a good job of

476
00:21:24,079 --> 00:21:25,680
showing him the respect that he.

477
00:21:25,759 --> 00:21:29,200
Speaker 6: Deserves and when you look at you, know going back

478
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,960
to a j you, know he came in with such

479
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:35,720
a you, know big, Expectations harold recruit number one, player

480
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,480
he's kind of. REWARDING i know you're big on proof of,

481
00:21:38,519 --> 00:21:42,279
concepts but just like talented players can come here and

482
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,720
still be maybe exceed the high expectation be, freshman your

483
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:46,200
player and your.

484
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,839
Speaker 11: Conversation, YEAH i.

485
00:21:49,759 --> 00:21:53,440
Speaker 10: Think there's a clear blueprint of how individuals can succeed

486
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:58,839
at B yu while having team success and also doing

487
00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:00,480
it in a in a way that puts you in

488
00:22:00,599 --> 00:22:01,759
an incredible light from THE.

489
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,599
Speaker 11: Nba. Right that's you, know what we set out to

490
00:22:04,599 --> 00:22:05,920
do is to do to do those three.

491
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,920
Speaker 10: Things you, know have a great team, success have guys

492
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,720
have individual, success and have guys prepare themselves for THE,

493
00:22:11,799 --> 00:22:15,119

494
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,279
as an individual and and and help propel our team

495
00:22:19,319 --> 00:22:22,440
to a good run last, year and then what he's doing.

496
00:22:22,279 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 11: In THE nba this year in terms of being league.

497
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,599

499
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:31,920

512
00:23:07,079 --> 00:23:09,960

Speaker 12: KNOW i love it having him on the having him

554
00:24:58,319 --> 00:25:02,079
there is a massive deal, though Because, RICHIE i just don't,

555
00:25:02,079 --> 00:25:06,559
think is the type of guy WHO a takes bs

556
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,279
AND b he's almost.

557
00:25:09,319 --> 00:25:12,279
Speaker 8: Done so, like if you don't like what he has to.

558
00:25:12,279 --> 00:25:14,680
SAY a, AGAIN i don't think he cares what anybody.

559
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,279
Thinks BUT b he's, like, Dude i'm gonna be gone next.

560
00:25:17,319 --> 00:25:19,559
Year so IF i hurt your feelings Because i'm asking

561
00:25:19,559 --> 00:25:22,200
you to do more THAN i believe you're giving. Me right,

562
00:25:22,279 --> 00:25:24,279
NOW i don't give a rat say if you don't like,

563
00:25:24,319 --> 00:25:25,119
it Because i'm gonna be.

564
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:27,599
Speaker 1: Gone and, ALSO i think this means a.

565
00:25:27,559 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 8: Lot to him because of his time AT, byu AND

566
00:25:33,839 --> 00:25:35,920
i want TO i want to go back to something

567
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:39,359
that That aj said after they Beat, utah which was

568
00:25:39,559 --> 00:25:42,240
we wanted to get this win For. Richie AND i

569
00:25:42,279 --> 00:25:45,240
think having him, there seeing him, there having him be

570
00:25:45,319 --> 00:25:49,000
a coach in this, MOMENT i, think, HONESTLY i think

571
00:25:49,039 --> 00:25:53,200
that might be Your Trevan nell from last year Because Trevor,

572
00:25:53,279 --> 00:25:55,440
nell we know was played that kind of role obviously

573
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,000
didn't get injured for this, season but was kind of

574
00:25:58,039 --> 00:26:02,680
the Elder Upper states then voice in that locker room

575
00:26:02,759 --> 00:26:06,160
on that. Team winning For richie And richie being that,

576
00:26:06,279 --> 00:26:09,599
VOICE i think may be the difference maker with this.

577
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,400
Speaker 1: Team, ben you.

578
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:15,000
Speaker 7: Wonder if they get to the if they somehow mess

579
00:26:15,039 --> 00:26:17,640
around right and just Go march is.

580
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 3: Magical you both would agree with.

581
00:26:19,279 --> 00:26:22,079
Speaker 7: That if they're magically in the semi, final you would

582
00:26:22,079 --> 00:26:24,440
have to be, like is this attributed to number? Fifteen

583
00:26:24,799 --> 00:26:27,559
is this number fifteen is doing Because. Ben If i'm,

584
00:26:27,559 --> 00:26:29,480
serious if they win the next two, games which we

585
00:26:29,559 --> 00:26:31,880
think they can, do and they're playing Against, HOUSTON i

586
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,599
mighty never Be Texas tech and they've never Been houston

587
00:26:34,599 --> 00:26:37,319
since being in The Big Twelve. Conference if they do

588
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,359
that And richie's on the, BENCH i might just, go you,

589
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,440
know and this is. UNPROFESSIONAL i might just Go homer

590
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,119
and say in tattoo fifteen on my, forehead so the season's,

591
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,480
over get a temporary one and say the Top king,

592
00:26:47,519 --> 00:26:50,599
coach tot. Coach you Know richie Had. Ben richie's the

593
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:54,279
reason BECAUSE i agree With brad having him there, been

594
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,759
LIKE i think they all respect even if they don't

595
00:26:56,759 --> 00:26:58,319
want to do. It what's your moments and games LIKE

596
00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,039
i really don't want to do, this Seeing richie is, like,

597
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,079
OH i gotta do it for that, Guy LIKE i

598
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,880
have to have no choice because what would he do right?

599
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:07,359
NOW i mean his arm could be cut off and

600
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,839
he played. Defense SO i think having him there is

601
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,160
There JUST i don't want to sound rude because this

602
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:15,400
team is, talented but it adds extra motivation when you

603
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:16,920
turn over at the bench or when you're ready to

604
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:18,759
give up and you see him and be like, nah

605
00:27:18,759 --> 00:27:20,599
this is for, you and what would you do on the?

606
00:27:20,599 --> 00:27:21,599
Speaker 3: Court what Would richie?

607
00:27:21,599 --> 00:27:21,640
Speaker 11: Do?

608
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,400
Speaker 3: Now what Would jesus? Do what Would richie?

609

Speaker 1: Easy?

612
00:27:25,799 --> 00:27:27,680
Speaker 7: Easy i'm not trying to be, sacrilogic But i'm, saying

613
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:28,519
what would the top king?

614
00:27:28,599 --> 00:27:28,680
Speaker 11: Do?

615
00:27:29,319 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 1: Yeah CAN?

616
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,400

Speaker 1: THIS i have temporary tattoo, Ink SO i did hear?

619
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:39,039
You just?

620
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 8: Say IF yu Beats, houston you would tattoo temporarily the

621
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,559
number fifteen on your. FOREHEAD i don't know how it

622
00:27:45,559 --> 00:27:48,799

628
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,799
Speaker 5: THINGS i do want you to ponder on this before

629
00:28:02,799 --> 00:28:04,880
we as we get into the rest of the. Sound

630
00:28:05,279 --> 00:28:08,480

633
00:28:13,759 --> 00:28:14,279

634
00:28:14,279 --> 00:28:18,680
Speaker 6: SOUND i wanted to ask you to what's you bring

635
00:28:18,799 --> 00:28:21,400
up player availability or players that are a little bit nicked.

636
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,400
Up But richie obviously out for the, year but what

637
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,759
About Kvia Kata you got a little bit lim living

638
00:28:25,759 --> 00:28:27,160
a little bit at the end of that game Against.

639
00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:28,440
Tech what's the outlook For?

640
00:28:28,519 --> 00:28:29,640
Speaker 11: Kada, yeah he looks.

641
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 10: FINE i think everybody's you, know played through. Injuries everyone's

642
00:28:33,559 --> 00:28:34,640
kind of banged up this time of.

643
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:36,319
Speaker 11: Year but you, know he looks.

644
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,839
Speaker 6: Good and With kada to follow up on, him you,

645
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,440
know you win nine and eleven Against. Tech it just

646
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:46,079
seemed like a Vintage cada. Game can you expect anything

647
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,799
game after game in the postseason out because he seems

648
00:28:48,799 --> 00:28:49,319
so key to this.

649
00:28:49,359 --> 00:28:50,319
Speaker 11: Team, YEAH i think.

650
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 10: So you, know we decided, to you, know just play

651
00:28:53,079 --> 00:28:57,079
in more minutes he's been you, know he handled that, well,

652
00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,000
Right SO i think just keep him on the floor is.

653
00:28:59,039 --> 00:29:01,559
Important you, know he is a guy that impacts it

654
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,880
on both ends of the. FLOOR i thought that our

655
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,279
guys did a good job of looking for him, offensively

656
00:29:06,359 --> 00:29:08,720
make more than we have in some parts of the.

657
00:29:08,759 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 11: Season so, YES i think he can carry that over

658
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:13,480
and help be a catalyst for this for this.

659
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:19,039
Speaker 6: Postseason and your, thoughts your thoughts On, rob and not

660
00:29:19,079 --> 00:29:23,079
only was he, offensively just seemed like the defensive intensity,

661
00:29:23,119 --> 00:29:25,440
too was there in That tech. GAME i think that

662
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:26,559
can carry over and not.

663
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 11: Just be a one game.

664
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 10: DEAL i do think, that you, KNOW i Think rob's

665
00:29:29,519 --> 00:29:31,839
a very competitive young. MAN i thought he was. Tremendous

666
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,000
he led us in that. Game thought his leadership was

667
00:29:34,039 --> 00:29:37,200
on full display more than it's been all, year led

668
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,640
by example on the defensive. End to your, point he

669
00:29:39,759 --> 00:29:44,599
thought the intensity was. OUTSTANDING i just played maybe harder

670
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:46,720
than he ever has in his entire. Life, Honestly that's

671
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:48,480
what it felt like in that. Game and THEN i

672
00:29:48,519 --> 00:29:50,519
think that gave, him you, know a lot of juice

673
00:29:50,519 --> 00:29:52,599
on the offensive end to get to his spots and

674
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,640
so so, YES i THINK i think he can carry

675
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:56,039
that over for.

676
00:29:56,079 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 6: Sure and then just thinking here, too with the The

677
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,119
Big Twelve, tournament what lessons maybe just learned from last,

678
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:06,680
year in your first year as a college coach that

679
00:30:06,759 --> 00:30:09,559
you want to maybe change up routines or schedules going

680
00:30:09,599 --> 00:30:11,359
into this postseason.

681
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 11: Run, YEAH i don't know if anything in terms of

682
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:14,079
changing things.

683
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 10: UP i mean just you, know this time of, year

684
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,400
you want to keep guys as fresh as possible mentally and,

685
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:23,839
physically so a little bit less is more, approach and

686
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,440
just LIKE i, said you, know freshness this time of

687
00:30:26,559 --> 00:30:27,759
year is really.

688
00:30:27,559 --> 00:30:30,079
Speaker 11: What's most, important being able to, play you.

689
00:30:30,079 --> 00:30:32,799
Speaker 10: Know extremely, hard and not get too hung up on

690
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:33,880
anything other than those.

691
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:35,240
Speaker 11: Things last, thing.

692
00:30:35,839 --> 00:30:39,039
Speaker 6: Excuse me your thoughts on just the overall. LEAGUE i,

693
00:30:39,039 --> 00:30:41,559
mean you've talked about it a, lot how good of

694
00:30:41,559 --> 00:30:44,279
a league this, is but just maybe the. DRAW i

695
00:30:44,279 --> 00:30:45,839
know you're gonna probably look at one game at a,

696
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,319
time but just the path possibly to you, know chasing

697
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:50,240
a conference tournament.

698
00:30:50,279 --> 00:30:53,039
Speaker 10: Title, YEAH i, mean obviously that's the, goal regardless of

699
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,599
what the path looks. LIKE i haven't really even dug

700
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,400
my sunk my teeth into what that really looks. LIKE i,

701
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,720
mean this time of, year you have to really just

702
00:31:01,799 --> 00:31:04,799
focus on what's in front of, you which we. Are

703
00:31:04,839 --> 00:31:07,039
obviously our staff is doing a lot of the legwork

704
00:31:07,319 --> 00:31:10,640
behind the scenes as far as scouting the potential upcoming,

705
00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:12,839
games but just trying to keep our guys focused on

706
00:31:12,839 --> 00:31:18,559
the task at hand right, Now, yeah.

707
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:20,119
Speaker 5: They, go that's k Why Kevin, young head coach B

708
00:31:20,319 --> 00:31:23,119
yu men's basketball, guys any final thoughts before we wrap

709
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:27,400
up that initial segment Of Cougar sports here on your

710
00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:28,400
UTAH U span radio.

711
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:31,559
Speaker 8: NETWORK i thought it was interesting that he said A

712
00:31:31,839 --> 00:31:34,440
rob's leadership was on display more than it had been all,

713
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:38,039
season and That rob may have played with more effort

714
00:31:38,119 --> 00:31:40,559
than he may have him played with his entire.

715
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 1: Life that's a big. Deal the question you have to

716
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,519
ask the, question then can we put that in? Quotes

717
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,759
he said, it he said it, right you said? It?

718
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,920
Speaker 8: Why then becomes the question what was it about that?

719
00:31:57,079 --> 00:32:01,720
Game after games where we he personally didn't feel Like

720
00:32:01,839 --> 00:32:03,960
rob was giving his best, EFFORT i wonder what about that?

721
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,559
Speaker 5: Game, YEAH i wonder if The Christian anderson, component having

722
00:32:06,559 --> 00:32:08,720
grown up with, him played alongside him and like you

723
00:32:09,039 --> 00:32:12,160
heard you saw, him you, know hover Over.

724
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,079
Speaker 1: Anderson you, know you.

725
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 5: Know WHAT i, Mean like that's something that you, Know

726
00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,559
LIKE i always, say you, guys hear me talk, philosophy

727
00:32:25,279 --> 00:32:29,759
the philosophies that ben as we call, them the greatest

728
00:32:29,799 --> 00:32:34,160
like motivating factor of the falling state of. Manage the

729
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:40,160
competitive enmity between neighbor. Is it's like this comparing contrast

730
00:32:40,279 --> 00:32:42,599
is like the rivalries they're built off of. It it's

731
00:32:42,599 --> 00:32:45,480
the rivalries of of your. Neighbor it's the rivalry of

732
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:48,119
the guy you grew up. With, remember like like he's

733
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,319
a he's An East coast kid that went To waco

734
00:32:50,359 --> 00:32:52,839
and now he's In. Provo he he doesn't really get

735
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:56,640
to probably engage competitively with the guys that he grew up,

736
00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,119
with and he's now he's going against.

737
00:32:58,839 --> 00:33:00,440
Speaker 1: Him Versus Texas.

738
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:02,519
Speaker 5: Tech maybe that was the little juice that he needed

739
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:04,359
to get the most out of.

740
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,759
Speaker 8: Them do you remember let me phrase this a better.

741
00:33:07,799 --> 00:33:12,960
WAY i remember there so The lesner. Brothers WHEN i

742
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,279
was in high school over At. Clearfield we never Beat

743
00:33:15,279 --> 00:33:18,279
clearfield the entire history of my high school Because clearfield

744
00:33:18,359 --> 00:33:20,119
was the rich high. School they had all the, money

745
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,440
they recruited all the good, players and they smacked. US

746
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:24,400
i THINK jv won my sophomore. YEAR i think they

747
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,200
beat us like seventy to. Zero and The lesner brothers

748
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:28,640
were the leader of that. Team there were three of.

749
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:30,519
Them there was one my, age my brother's, age and

750
00:33:30,559 --> 00:33:32,960
the next brother's. AGE i remember all The lesler, brothers

751
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,480
and we hated those kids so much at my high.

752
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:41,119
School if it's anything like, THAT i get, it rob BECAUSE.

753
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 1: I think we all have.

754
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:45,359
Speaker 8: Matters if anyone played high school, sports you remember that one,

755
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,720
kid whether he played at your rival at another high,

756
00:33:47,759 --> 00:33:51,079
school you remember who that. Was If Christian anderson was

757
00:33:51,119 --> 00:33:54,880
His lesner, BROTHER i got, It, Rob, Yeah, no it's.

758
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:56,039
Speaker 1: Something it's.

759
00:33:56,079 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 3: Something the competitive nature is definitely.

760
00:33:58,200 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 11: There.

761
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 7: Ben when you see a guy that you've been going

762
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:04,559
to camps, with that you you, know played, against it's it's, there,

763
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:05,519
right it's a competitive.

764
00:34:05,559 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 3: NATURE i went to, school been. There they had three.

765
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:08,159
Campuses it's.

766
00:34:08,199 --> 00:34:11,519
Speaker 7: Crazy and you would obviously, train you, know an, offseason

767
00:34:11,559 --> 00:34:14,119
play on the same, teams you, know summer league. Teams

768
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:16,760
but when you played against each other in school, batters you're, like,

769
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,320
yeah we want to be the best campus In.

770
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 3: Whoop you like.

771
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 7: It just it's, there AND i think sometimes that can motivate.

772
00:34:21,519 --> 00:34:24,480
People AND i Believe rob even coming into that. Game you,

773
00:34:24,519 --> 00:34:28,119
know even in The cincinnati, game he was trying, right you,

774
00:34:28,159 --> 00:34:30,440
know after The WESTERN gi game it didn't go his,

775
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,280
way and then Obviously Texas tech he was locked. In

776
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,920
and look If, rob and If rob does, That ben

777
00:34:36,199 --> 00:34:38,960
along with, play, well That's i'm gonna be. Honest AND

778
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:40,679
i know we've kind of he's backed off this this,

779
00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,480
take But rob plays defense like That. Ben even if

780
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,639
he plays offensive offensively like that and doesn't, create he

781
00:34:46,679 --> 00:34:49,199
can play in THE. Nba they'd like, legit like if

782
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,840
you're gonna attempt a guard like That ben and be

783
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:53,760
effective like and there are moments where he was, bad

784
00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:55,920
no moments where they were and ones, right but if

785
00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:58,000
you're still gonna put forth that effort and do, It

786
00:34:58,119 --> 00:35:00,440
AND i feel like he was successful and almost where

787
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,159
he was Against Christian anderson and At will, LOOK i

788
00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,280
mean that that could be the, case but you have

789
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:06,000
to buy into.

790
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:07,639
Speaker 3: It AND i asked him That. Ben we didn't get

791
00:35:07,639 --> 00:35:07,800
to the.

792
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 7: Sound but the last QUESTION i Asked rob before it closed, Was,

793
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,599
hey how's the leadership robe and how have you adjusted to?

794
00:35:13,599 --> 00:35:15,039
Speaker 3: That because that's been a change for?

795
00:35:15,079 --> 00:35:16,760
Speaker 7: You and he, says it's Something i'm still working, on

796
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:18,960
but it's something you know That i've. BEEN i was

797
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,119
more vocal in this, game AND i think that this

798
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,639
is something that's, New but it takes a player time to.

799
00:35:23,679 --> 00:35:25,920
Adjust richie was the vocal. One they didn't have to do,

800
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:27,480
that and NOW i think we all can adjust here

801
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:30,159
when someone to relate it to the job is out

802
00:35:30,199 --> 00:35:32,400
on vacation or there's six someone else has to step,

803
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:34,239
up and at times it might be, okay this is

804
00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:36,000
a new role for me to but once you learn that,

805
00:35:36,079 --> 00:35:37,719
skills so you learn how to do, it it just

806
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:39,559
makes you better as a person and the team grows

807
00:35:39,599 --> 00:35:39,960
because of.

808
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:41,280
Speaker 3: It SO i think they'll be.

809
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,239
Speaker 7: OKAY i think they'll be, fine and now Having richie

810
00:35:43,559 --> 00:35:47,159
on the, sideline they'll do. Well and to change my greeniest,

811

00:35:56,039 --> 00:35:57,599

915
00:40:41,599 --> 00:40:45,679
Speaker 8: Of, those but like it's it's just we see all

916
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:49,239
these conversations about so and, so oh so and so

917
00:40:49,559 --> 00:40:52,519
x amount of dollars for wanting to leave the, league

918
00:40:52,599 --> 00:40:55,159
and usually it comes down to what he, said she,

919
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,599
said back and. Forth but us as the, consumer it

920
00:40:58,599 --> 00:41:02,800
doesn't really. Affect now you see this and you, go

921
00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,599
this is. This there are true consequences that are going

922
00:41:06,639 --> 00:41:11,239
to come with. This if they decide not to. Pay holy,

923
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:13,400
cow they may be held out of a conference. Tournament

924
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:15,840
AND i don't know what THEY'RE i don't know a

925
00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:19,760
few vu as a tournament, team but like imagine in another,

926
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:21,719
world like they go, on they win the, tournament and

927
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:24,360
then they make THE inca tournament because of, this but

928
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:26,719
then they don't have the opportunity to play for that

929
00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:31,239
because of a couple dollars not being attributed to where

930
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,519
they need it to. Be it Is watching the consequences

931
00:41:33,519 --> 00:41:34,320
play out is pretty.

932
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,000
Speaker 1: Crazy, YEAH i think they're gonna pay.

933
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,679
Speaker 5: It it sounds like they, will AND i do believe

934
00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:43,599
they'll be AN ncaa tournament. Team that is my. Opinion

935
00:41:44,159 --> 00:41:47,039
let's get into SOME byu, basketball shall? We as we

936
00:41:47,119 --> 00:41:48,679
prep we get ready for The. Bay you can't just

937
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:53,239
stay tip off very much intrigued BY byu and The big.

938
00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:55,639
Twelve look are we gonna Get? Jacko we're gonna get?

939
00:41:55,679 --> 00:42:00,360
Hide is the question? Tonight and in the final game

940
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:04,239
Versus West. VIRGINIA i want to believe that the best

941
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:10,920
OF byu will be showcased and the best OF byu.

942
00:42:09,599 --> 00:42:14,039
Speaker 1: Will will ultimately be unfurled to the. World right.

943
00:42:15,639 --> 00:42:23,039
Speaker 5: The effort That ky mentioned Regarding Rob wright, third will

944
00:42:23,039 --> 00:42:29,239
it finally be showcased? Consistently that's WHAT i want to.

945
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:33,320
Know Coach richie has been? Activated is he the guy

946
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:35,039
that motivates individual?

947
00:42:35,079 --> 00:42:37,079
Speaker 1: Players it does seem to be a.

948
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:39,280
Speaker 5: Little bit of a, correlation a little bit of that

949
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:43,559
causation because BYU's games in which they've won has Had

950
00:42:43,639 --> 00:42:49,280
Richie saunders on the. Bench Iowa state top ten, Win

951
00:42:50,320 --> 00:42:51,920
Texas tech top.

952
00:42:51,679 --> 00:42:53,639
Speaker 1: Ten, win both of them at.

953
00:42:53,679 --> 00:42:58,239
Speaker 5: Home, albeit But richie combined with The Merriage, center that's

954
00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:02,039
what makes magic. Happen Maybe richie In Kansas, City missouri

955
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:03,400
makes magic happened as.

956
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:07,000
Speaker 8: WELL I, You, villa you bring up a very valid,

957
00:43:07,039 --> 00:43:09,960
point one That i've thought about over the last couple of, days,

958
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:13,360
because as we we discussed after they Beat Texas, tech it's, like,

959
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:17,280
okay but there were parts of that game where you

960
00:43:17,599 --> 00:43:20,880
needed The Marriott center to kind of lift you back

961
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,320
up after you had slumped back up a little, bit

962
00:43:23,679 --> 00:43:26,840
because The Texas tech game that they played In lubbock

963
00:43:27,039 --> 00:43:29,719
was not so different from this, one where it was

964
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:31,639
back and forth the whole, way one that you or

965
00:43:31,679 --> 00:43:33,239
you could have lost at the end In.

966
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:36,360
Speaker 1: Lubbock they did lose that. One, yep what we.

967
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:38,880
Speaker 8: Need to as great as The Marriott center is and

968
00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,920
as great as The rock, is and his greatest kugernation is.

969
00:43:43,559 --> 00:43:45,440
Speaker 1: You have to leave those in. Provo they.

970
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:48,119
Speaker 8: Can't you can't bring them with. You you're you're leaving your.

971
00:43:48,159 --> 00:43:49,480
Parents you got to go to college on your.

972
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:50,039
Speaker 1: Own you.

973
00:43:50,079 --> 00:43:52,199
Speaker 8: Can't they can't do your, laundry they can't do your.

974
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:55,039
Issues you've got to now go do it on your.

975
00:43:55,079 --> 00:43:57,960
Own AND i realized that that may sound, disrespectful but

976
00:43:58,039 --> 00:44:01,280
the truth of the matter is you lost eight of

977
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:03,719
your last twelve games of the regular. Season two of

978
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:06,679
those were the top ten, teams but those two also

979
00:44:07,159 --> 00:44:08,599
happened to be at.

980
00:44:08,639 --> 00:44:10,119
Speaker 1: Home and if the game is on the.

981
00:44:10,199 --> 00:44:13,119
Speaker 8: Road, honestly if That Texas tech game the way it played,

982
00:44:13,119 --> 00:44:15,360
out if that's on the, ROAD i mean there was

983
00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:17,360
a point in that game where Bay you almost lost

984
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:17,760
it in.

985
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:20,880
Speaker 1: Provo we need to see By you.

986
00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:26,719
Speaker 8: Dominate on their own and maybe getting that win was

987
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:29,559
enough of a confidence boost that now they can go

988
00:44:29,599 --> 00:44:31,960
do it on their. Own but you do not have

989
00:44:32,039 --> 00:44:34,920
The Marriott center and The rock and kugarnation bolstering you.

990
00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:37,400
Up there'll BE bayu fans, there but not enough to

991
00:44:37,559 --> 00:44:39,480
completely swing the momentum in the.

992
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:41,440
Speaker 1: Building you've got to do this one on your. Own you.

993
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:44,159
KNOW i have another interesting, commentary and.

Speaker 8: Yeah, football usually winning the game is what causes the.

1014
00:45:41,119 --> 00:45:44,119
Chance but in, basketball they've just gotten them here regardless

1015
00:45:44,159 --> 00:45:47,559
and they've lost those. GAMES i DOUBT i would be

1016
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:50,119
shocked if you see at The Big tell tournament a

1017
00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:54,079
because there's not enough students and Be uh Brett Or

1018
00:45:54,119 --> 00:45:55,320
mark just, said, hey we're not doing.

1019
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:58,199
Speaker 1: That so, yeah my guess is probably. No but, again

1020
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:01,000
like you, need you've needed home court advantage in a

1021
00:46:01,039 --> 00:46:03,199
lot of your games this season and you won't have. That,

1022
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:05,519
yeah Brett Or.

1023
00:46:05,599 --> 00:46:08,719
Speaker 5: Mark did you find an interesting that Brett Or mark

1024
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:12,639
addressed the chance at the media?

1025
00:46:12,679 --> 00:46:15,400
Speaker 8: Conference was he asked that question or did he address

1026
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:15,880
that on his?

1027
00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:17,519
Speaker 1: OWN i haven't. LISTENED i don't.

1028
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:20,719
Speaker 5: Think he probably was asked a question about.

1029
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:22,360
Speaker 1: IT i want to. BELIEVE i don't.

1030
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:25,440
Speaker 5: KNOW i haven't listened to the the the interview in its,

1031
00:46:25,599 --> 00:46:28,960
entirety BUT i want to believe that it was at you,

1032
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,440
know it was a kind of a follow, up a

1033
00:46:31,559 --> 00:46:36,000
query if you, will to you, know all manner of

1034
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:39,840
different questions that he was fielding Brett Or. Marks, uh you,

1035
00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:42,360
know let let's let's play the full, commentary shall?

1036
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:42,800
Speaker 1: We what do you?

1037
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,920
Speaker 5: Think, uh let's play the full commentary real quick for

1038
00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:48,400
all Of kugarnation that haven't tuned into. IT i think

1039
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:51,840
this hits on a point that b Y U fames would, find,

1040
00:46:52,599 --> 00:46:55,159
uh you know some value in in in hearing From

1041
00:46:55,199 --> 00:46:58,320
brett Or mark To Big twelve, Commissioner, Uh brett Or

1042
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:02,159
mark is is trying to address the inappropriate chance aimed

1043
00:47:02,199 --> 00:47:05,239
at church, members and it's taking it. PERSONALLY i felt

1044
00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:08,320
hate as a young, man he, states AND i didn't like.

1045
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:12,519
Speaker 1: It SO i do think eliminating.

1046
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:17,400
Speaker 5: Anti mormon chance from camping campuses is going to be

1047
00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:21,360
a prerogative for The Big Twelve Commissioner Brett Yor, mark

1048
00:47:22,119 --> 00:47:24,880
AND i think he's taken a hardline stance on.

1049
00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:30,960
Speaker 1: It he's been throwing out plenty of fines on the season.

1050
00:47:32,199 --> 00:47:34,159
Speaker 5: And he's putting his. MONEY i guess where his mouth.

1051
00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:37,639
Is you got zero tolerance for. IT i speak to

1052
00:47:37,679 --> 00:47:40,000
you both as a commissioner of The Big, twelve but

1053
00:47:40,119 --> 00:47:40,719
also as.

1054
00:47:40,559 --> 00:47:41,639
Speaker 1: Someone that has high.

1055
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:44,400
Speaker 5: Integrity i've had those conversations in fact with my. KIDS

1056
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:47,400
i think a lot of IT'S i think it's a

1057
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:49,719
lot of education that needs to happen with some of

1058
00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,760
the student, sections because that's where it's coming. FROM i

1059
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:54,960
told my, kids you're not coming home if those words

1060
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:58,079
come out of your. Mouth he, SAID i take it very.

1061
00:47:58,119 --> 00:48:02,199
Seriously SO i think for B yu fans hearing, this

1062
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:08,280
seeing the, Repercussions, uh it's it's you, know it feels

1063
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:10,480
good to have. ADVOCACY i don't know if B yu

1064
00:48:10,599 --> 00:48:12,599
and The Latter Day Saying faith in general has ever

1065
00:48:12,639 --> 00:48:14,960
had like true advocacy.

1066
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:17,519
Speaker 1: And uh and and and.

1067
00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:21,559
Speaker 5: Representation you know to the, World uh in a in

1068
00:48:21,639 --> 00:48:26,599
a in a way that like really fights for it's,

1069
00:48:26,679 --> 00:48:30,440
faith it's, values it's School like it always seems like

1070
00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:35,360
it's easy to poke fun at and discriminate Against Latter

1071
00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:37,480
Day saints in some, way shape or, form even if

1072
00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:40,880
it's seemingly, uh you, know, juvenile docile.

1073
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,760
Speaker 1: Behavior it's just. Words it seems, like, uh you know

1074
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:45,400
that some of the hates beat the. Bigotry.

1075
00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:48,719
Speaker 5: Uh you've never really had advocacy and representation and someone

1076
00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:52,639
that's willing to fight duke it out on these, uh

1077
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:55,800
on social media or on traditional.

1078
00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:57,559
Speaker 1: Media for b Y u and L D S.

1079
00:48:57,559 --> 00:49:00,920
Speaker 8: Faith you can argue all you want in the gray

1080
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:02,239
area of was it tongue in?

1081
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:03,000
Speaker 1: Cheek was it?

1082
00:49:03,079 --> 00:49:05,679
Speaker 8: Humorous there's no part of any of these chants that

1083
00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:08,599
fall into that criteria of a gray area when you're

1084
00:49:08,639 --> 00:49:13,000
saying f a Religion, Africa, yeah that is clearly on

1085
00:49:13,119 --> 00:49:17,599
one side of the. Aisle AND i don't remember how

1086
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:22,760
or when it happened in THE, wcc but WHEN gilli

1087
00:49:22,920 --> 00:49:25,760
was in THE, wcc it felt like they were just

1088
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:29,159
a member there and they weren't necessarily, welcome they weren't,

1089
00:49:29,159 --> 00:49:32,880
Diswelcome but being in The Big, twelve it truly does

1090
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:36,320
feel like from the other member schools and From Brett,

1091
00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:40,320
yormark like they WANT byu to feel welcome and a

1092
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:42,559
part of the. Conference and For Brett yormark to go

1093
00:49:42,599 --> 00:49:44,880
out and do this and for the coaches to speak

1094
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:46,880
out to, it to come to the aid OF, BYU

1095
00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:50,480
i think just goes to show what a great place

1096
00:49:50,559 --> 00:49:52,679
The Big twelve is in that it is as high

1097
00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:57,119
level competition as. Possible but also that doesn't mean that

1098
00:49:57,159 --> 00:49:59,239
we don't look at that from other schools and say

1099
00:49:59,360 --> 00:49:59,880
we're not doing.

1100
00:49:59,920 --> 00:50:01,679
Speaker 1: That it's an incredible place to be.

1101
00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:04,920
Speaker 8: In from The Big, twelve from the, administration, standpoint and

1102
00:50:05,079 --> 00:50:07,079
maybe not so much from the fans, standpoint but For

1103
00:50:07,119 --> 00:50:10,679
Brett yormark to do what he's, doing that that speaks

1104
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:11,400
speaks for.

1105
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:13,639
Speaker 5: Itself, yeah let's get into some of the comments From

1106
00:50:13,679 --> 00:50:17,800
Brett ormark from the media AVAILABILITY i believe earlier.

1107
00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:20,239
Speaker 3: Today just a Preface i've been before we.

1108
00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:22,360
Speaker 7: Do this is one OF i don't know If brett

1109
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:24,920
had this professor AT, byu but It's Sothello, richards this

1110
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:28,800

1111
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:29,719
Speaker 3: Brett you ormark about?

1112
00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:32,199

00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:34,239
Speaker 4: Well thank you great to Think i'm happy to be.

1114
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:34,519
Speaker 11: Here.

1115
00:50:34,679 --> 00:50:38,079
Speaker 8: Good so there have been several instances where they've been

1116
00:50:38,119 --> 00:50:39,280
derogatory chance.

1117
00:50:40,559 --> 00:50:44,079
Speaker 6: Towards THE byu basketball team and football. Team you having

1118
00:50:44,079 --> 00:50:46,559
pulls at fifty thousand? Dollars, Fine is the league considering

1119
00:50:46,599 --> 00:50:49,880
anything else to try to correct this activity or stop?

1120
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:52,199
Speaker 15: It, well let me let me start off by saying

1121
00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:56,360
we have zero tolerance for. That AND i speak to

1122
00:50:56,400 --> 00:51:00,480
you both as the commissioner of The Big, twelve but

1123
00:51:00,559 --> 00:51:05,400
also as someone that has high, integrity and you, Know

1124
00:51:05,639 --> 00:51:09,880
i've had those conversations in fact with my kids BECAUSE

1125
00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:11,760
i think it's a lot of education that needs to

1126
00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:14,440
happen with some of the student. Athletes it's because there

1127
00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:17,880
are student, sections because that's where it's coming. From AND

1128
00:51:18,079 --> 00:51:21,760
i told my kids, candidly you're not coming home if

1129
00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:24,800
you ever those words ever come out of your, mouth

1130
00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:29,960
regardless of what they. Are AND i take it very,

1131
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:33,000
seriously and it's a very personal thing for. Me you,

1132
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:37,119
Know I'm, JEWISH i grew up in a very diverse.

1133
00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:40,199
BACKGROUND i felt hate as a young man.

1134
00:51:43,239 --> 00:51:44,159
Speaker 1: AND i didn't like.

1135
00:51:44,199 --> 00:51:50,039
Speaker 15: It And i'm here based on those experiences and in

1136
00:51:50,079 --> 00:51:52,760
my position to try to bring about change and change.

1137
00:51:52,760 --> 00:51:55,679
Behavior and that's What i'm trying to do along with my,

1138
00:51:55,840 --> 00:52:00,559
colleagues the presidents and the, ads and we spend quite

1139
00:52:00,599 --> 00:52:02,280
a bit of time and we're going to spend more

1140
00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:05,440
in our spring meetings and how we can be. Better

1141
00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:07,840
And i'm working very closely With Shane Shane, reached the

1142
00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:11,320
president OF. Byu we talk often about it because he

1143
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:14,519
knows it's a very personal thing for me And i'm

1144
00:52:14,559 --> 00:52:18,440
embarrassed by it and not happy about, it but we

1145
00:52:18,519 --> 00:52:21,760
need to do something about, it and we got to change.

1146
00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:23,880
Behavior AND i think we are going to roll up

1147
00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:26,519
our sleeves and dig in in our spring meetings and

1148
00:52:26,599 --> 00:52:30,440
address it as a, group the presidents and the, ads

1149
00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:33,119
AND i, know And i'm very confident we will get

1150
00:52:33,159 --> 00:52:33,639
to a better.

1151
00:52:33,679 --> 00:52:39,719
Speaker 5: PLACE i don't think you could asked for more if

1152
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:43,079
you're A buyu, fan if you're A Latterday. Saint, look

1153
00:52:43,119 --> 00:52:47,840
he's dolled out a plethora of, fines fifty thousand To

1154
00:52:48,039 --> 00:52:53,159
Oklahoma state this, year fifty thousand To colorado during the football.

1155
00:52:53,199 --> 00:52:56,920
