<v Speaker 2>try to empty that out as best we can before

16
00:00:58.119 --> 00:00:59.679
<v Speaker 2>we get out of here. I did have somebody though

17
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:04.280
<v Speaker 2>the text and ask about my voice. I mean it's

18
00:01:04.319 --> 00:01:06.280
<v Speaker 2>I think it's okay, but yeah, it's still not like

19
00:01:06.879 --> 00:01:10.439
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. I mean, I guess it's just the lingering,

20
00:01:10.480 --> 00:01:16.079
<v Speaker 2>the lingering effects of having like a sinus infection bronchitis

21
00:01:16.200 --> 00:01:17.719
<v Speaker 2>kind of thing. I mean, I feel fine. In fact,

22
00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:19.719
<v Speaker 2>I went back to the gym today as if you

23
00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:22.519
<v Speaker 2>couldn't tell, yeah, and got a nice run in which

24
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:23.959
<v Speaker 2>felt good. I was worried I was going to be

25
00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:26.640
<v Speaker 2>really winded, which I was a little bit, but you know,

26
00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:29.640
<v Speaker 2>I felt like I was, you know, fully healed. But yeah,

27
00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:31.120
<v Speaker 2>once I get in here and I and I and

28
00:01:31.159 --> 00:01:34.159
<v Speaker 2>I start yapping my voice, it's not like going away,

29
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:36.760
<v Speaker 2>but it you know, now you've now you're in Now

30
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:38.840
<v Speaker 2>you've gotten in my You've gotten me in my head,

31
00:01:38.879 --> 00:01:40.959
<v Speaker 2>because I mean I noticed it a little bit, but

32
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:43.319
<v Speaker 2>I hope that nobody else noticed. I mean, it's not

33
00:01:43.359 --> 00:01:44.840
<v Speaker 2>like it's it's not like it was a couple of

34
00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:48.439
<v Speaker 2>weeks ago where I couldn't speak, but that felt.

35
00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:50.799
<v Speaker 3>Like so long ago for a reason like that, and

36
00:01:50.840 --> 00:01:52.359
<v Speaker 3>that literally felt like a month ago.

37
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:55.159
<v Speaker 2>I have no That's one of the things that that

38
00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:59.560
<v Speaker 2>I sometimes just get lost in, is that just the

39
00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:03.680
<v Speaker 2>unex playing differences in the perception of time, Like certain

40
00:02:03.719 --> 00:02:06.359
<v Speaker 2>things feel like they were way long ago, and then

41
00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:08.479
<v Speaker 2>something that really was a long time ago feels like

42
00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:09.280
<v Speaker 2>it was yesterday.

43
00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:11.919
<v Speaker 4>I don't know why that's the case, but I'm with you, Like.

44
00:02:11.879 --> 00:02:14.599
<v Speaker 2>It feels like like, for example, I went and picked

45
00:02:14.599 --> 00:02:17.360
<v Speaker 2>my parents, my mom and my step dad up on

46
00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:20.120
<v Speaker 2>Saturday night. They went back, they got back in town

47
00:02:20.159 --> 00:02:23.759
<v Speaker 2>from Cabo. They were, uh, they're they're they're big travelers.

48
00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:25.520
<v Speaker 2>So I picked them up at the airport and they

49
00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:27.240
<v Speaker 2>were gone a week. Most people go on vacation. I

50
00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:29.199
<v Speaker 2>think it's about a week, but like for some reason,

51
00:02:29.240 --> 00:02:31.759
<v Speaker 2>it feels like they were gone for like a month. Uh.

52
00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:34.319
<v Speaker 2>And then you're right, like whenever I was, whenever I

53
00:02:34.520 --> 00:02:38.439
<v Speaker 2>was was was ill, you know, to extent, I feel

54
00:02:38.439 --> 00:02:39.960
<v Speaker 2>like like when I went to the doctor and all

55
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:41.479
<v Speaker 2>that and I had to like take a day and

56
00:02:41.560 --> 00:02:44.400
<v Speaker 2>I was clearly, you know, unable to speak. Doesn't that

57
00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:46.400
<v Speaker 2>feel like it was two years ago? I don't know why,

58
00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:51.199
<v Speaker 2>makes no sense. Austin can't explain it, cannot explain it,

59
00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:54.039
<v Speaker 2>all right, So real quick, we'll dive right back in

60
00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:56.800
<v Speaker 2>and get to you know, what we typically do on

61
00:02:56.800 --> 00:03:01.319
<v Speaker 2>a Monday reacting to the weekend. But Chucky hepburn. He

62
00:03:01.439 --> 00:03:04.840
<v Speaker 2>joins Terry Rozier in montrez Harrell as the third Louisville

63
00:03:04.840 --> 00:03:08.719
<v Speaker 2>player to be named ACC Player of the Week multiple times.

64
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:13.520
<v Speaker 2>So obviously Chucky having another big time performance on Saturday,

65
00:03:13.639 --> 00:03:17.759
<v Speaker 2>no surprise, he was given the award of ACC.

66
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:17.960
<v Speaker 5>Player of the Week.

67
00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:22.879
<v Speaker 2>Six consecutive threes and you know, a very seemingly brief

68
00:03:22.919 --> 00:03:26.240
<v Speaker 2>amount of time, I mean that that was something that

69
00:03:27.400 --> 00:03:30.479
<v Speaker 2>you kind of kept thinking, is this real? I mean

70
00:03:30.520 --> 00:03:33.439
<v Speaker 2>I remember after he made like the third consecutive one,

71
00:03:33.479 --> 00:03:37.360
<v Speaker 2>thinking well, okay, I'm sure the heat checks coming. And

72
00:03:37.400 --> 00:03:39.599
<v Speaker 2>then sure enough he doubled that up and made a

73
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:41.960
<v Speaker 2>total of six consecutive threes and then he never shot

74
00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:45.479
<v Speaker 2>another one. My man, was six of six thirty seven points.

75
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:48.879
<v Speaker 2>I mean, a guy who I believe is the best

76
00:03:48.879 --> 00:03:51.360
<v Speaker 2>player we've had at Louisville since Russ Smith. And that's

77
00:03:51.360 --> 00:03:53.280
<v Speaker 2>saying something because Russ is a legend. He's one of

78
00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:57.199
<v Speaker 2>very few that has his number retired. And I just

79
00:03:57.240 --> 00:03:58.919
<v Speaker 2>hate it that we only get Chucky for one year.

80
00:03:58.919 --> 00:04:00.960
<v Speaker 2>But man, what a fun year it has been. And

81
00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:05.840
<v Speaker 2>Pat Kelsey mentioned that the the the you know, in fact,

82
00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:07.759
<v Speaker 2>I'll pull up what he said because I do think

83
00:04:08.280 --> 00:04:09.680
<v Speaker 2>it's one of those things that will kind of hit

84
00:04:09.719 --> 00:04:11.199
<v Speaker 2>you in your feels if you're a fan that has

85
00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:14.719
<v Speaker 2>really just kind of gotten lost in this fun season.

86
00:04:14.800 --> 00:04:18.680
<v Speaker 2>That really was not predicted. I mean, I know in

87
00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:21.519
<v Speaker 2>college basketball, what you do in March and kind of

88
00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:24.920
<v Speaker 2>how it finishes is what really it's what really gives

89
00:04:24.920 --> 00:04:27.519
<v Speaker 2>you that lasting thought about a team. I mean, it's

90
00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:29.959
<v Speaker 2>not the only thing you think about, but in college

91
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:32.240
<v Speaker 2>hoops and really anything, I guess when it comes to sports,

92
00:04:32.720 --> 00:04:34.519
<v Speaker 2>if you have a great year and you fall short,

93
00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:36.759
<v Speaker 2>like that's kind of a bummer. But it just seems

94
00:04:36.759 --> 00:04:39.319
<v Speaker 2>like with college basketball, because they have a sixty eight

95
00:04:39.399 --> 00:04:42.680
<v Speaker 2>field tournament at the end of the year, and you

96
00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:44.839
<v Speaker 2>do well enough to get in safely with a good seed,

97
00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:47.360
<v Speaker 2>but then you somehow lose to you know, I mean,

98
00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:49.279
<v Speaker 2>Kentucky fans know it's happened to them the last couple

99
00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:52.720
<v Speaker 2>of years. Losing to Saint Peter's in Oakland like that.

100
00:04:52.720 --> 00:04:55.199
<v Speaker 2>That'll put a sour taste in your mouth about a

101
00:04:55.240 --> 00:04:57.680
<v Speaker 2>season that all in all was really good, you know,

102
00:04:57.759 --> 00:05:01.519
<v Speaker 2>until then. So you know, this season has been a

103
00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:05.399
<v Speaker 2>lot of fun. And I guess I'll know when we

104
00:05:05.439 --> 00:05:07.279
<v Speaker 2>get there. I guess if we get there. But I

105
00:05:07.279 --> 00:05:08.759
<v Speaker 2>was about to say, is even if they do lose

106
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:11.079
<v Speaker 2>early in the tournament, I have a hard time thinking

107
00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:14.240
<v Speaker 2>that I'm not going to remember this group for how

108
00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:17.600
<v Speaker 2>special this season was because of how quickly they brought

109
00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:20.240
<v Speaker 2>us back to life. I mean, that's what's happened here, man,

110
00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:23.959
<v Speaker 2>the revival. It's a real thing, mean, like everything. Like

111
00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:27.600
<v Speaker 2>if you would have put it on paper, this exact

112
00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:31.079
<v Speaker 2>timeline of things happening the way they have since Pat

113
00:05:31.160 --> 00:05:33.920
<v Speaker 2>Kelsey got hired, nobody would.

114
00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:35.199
<v Speaker 5>Believe you that this is what happened.

115
00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:41.439
<v Speaker 2>I mean nobody would have, especially when you consider the

116
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:44.480
<v Speaker 2>fact that they lost two key pieces that were supposed

117
00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:46.399
<v Speaker 2>to be big parts of this big part of this.

118
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:48.199
<v Speaker 4>Team in case it in Krin.

119
00:05:49.399 --> 00:05:52.160
<v Speaker 2>So you know, I'm getting a little bit of anxiety

120
00:05:52.160 --> 00:05:55.480
<v Speaker 2>as we get closer to March because I don't want

121
00:05:55.519 --> 00:05:57.360
<v Speaker 2>to do what we always do, which is, you know,

122
00:05:57.519 --> 00:06:00.360
<v Speaker 2>just really put so much of how we remember in

123
00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:03.040
<v Speaker 2>view a season, you know, kind of giving it the

124
00:06:03.040 --> 00:06:06.560
<v Speaker 2>past fail And everybody's different. I don't want to speak

125
00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:08.639
<v Speaker 2>for anybody but myself, but we all know how college

126
00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:11.560
<v Speaker 2>basketball works. We're college basketball crazy is around here, right,

127
00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:14.279
<v Speaker 2>And what you do in March is really what matters.

128
00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:18.000
<v Speaker 2>So I guess when I say I'm having anxieties because

129
00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:20.319
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to feel any differently about this team,

130
00:06:20.360 --> 00:06:22.439
<v Speaker 2>regardless of what happens, and I don't think that I will,

131
00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:25.560
<v Speaker 2>but again I won't know until we potentially get there.

132
00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:27.600
<v Speaker 2>Maybe we don't, because again, maybe they I mean, if

133
00:06:27.600 --> 00:06:30.720
<v Speaker 2>they make it to the second weekend, no matter when

134
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:32.319
<v Speaker 2>they lose, we're gonna be bumped because you never want

135
00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:34.160
<v Speaker 2>it to end. Man, this has been so fun. But

136
00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:35.800
<v Speaker 2>I just if they mayf they get to the sweet

137
00:06:35.800 --> 00:06:38.480
<v Speaker 2>sixteen and fall to a one seat or something like that,

138
00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:42.360
<v Speaker 2>I mean, nobody will want it to end. But I

139
00:06:42.399 --> 00:06:44.680
<v Speaker 2>don't know how you'd say that. That wasn't a phenomenal

140
00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:45.839
<v Speaker 2>season for Pat kelcey in.

141
00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:46.399
<v Speaker 4>His first year.

142
00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:49.319
<v Speaker 2>And again right now, Lowell was a top fifteen team overall.

143
00:06:49.600 --> 00:06:53.000
<v Speaker 2>They got a good chance to finish the season twenty

144
00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:54.560
<v Speaker 2>six and six I think it is, or is it

145
00:06:54.600 --> 00:06:55.319
<v Speaker 2>twenty five and six?

146
00:06:55.439 --> 00:06:58.399
<v Speaker 4>Let me pull it up here, because right.

147
00:06:58.240 --> 00:07:02.560
<v Speaker 2>Now they're sitting at let's see, they are up to

148
00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:05.360
<v Speaker 2>number twenty four in the net and they're twenty three

149
00:07:05.399 --> 00:07:07.480
<v Speaker 2>and six. So if they went out these next two games,

150
00:07:07.480 --> 00:07:10.399
<v Speaker 2>which they should, a twenty five and six regular season record,

151
00:07:10.439 --> 00:07:14.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean, again going back to whenever it was Pat

152
00:07:14.120 --> 00:07:17.759
<v Speaker 2>was hired mid March, whenever, I mean, imagine laying out

153
00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:22.680
<v Speaker 2>sort of where we are now. And it I mean

154
00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:27.199
<v Speaker 2>I nobody would believe you. I mean nobody would just

155
00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:31.560
<v Speaker 2>because that quick of a turnaround. It just yeah, it happens,

156
00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:36.759
<v Speaker 2>and you can go flip a roster. And I mean

157
00:07:36.839 --> 00:07:39.639
<v Speaker 2>other coaches have done, maybe not the exact same thing

158
00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:41.079
<v Speaker 2>that he's done up to this point, but like it

159
00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:43.279
<v Speaker 2>can happen. And that's a benefit of the portal, Right,

160
00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:45.600
<v Speaker 2>you can start over pretty quickly. You don't have to

161
00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:48.879
<v Speaker 2>preach patients and given coaches many years to get things

162
00:07:48.920 --> 00:07:52.319
<v Speaker 2>cleaned up. No, if you are a successful coach and

163
00:07:52.360 --> 00:07:55.560
<v Speaker 2>you have a winning formula and you know you can

164
00:07:55.639 --> 00:07:57.560
<v Speaker 2>sell and you can you can get guys to believe

165
00:07:57.560 --> 00:07:59.720
<v Speaker 2>in you and come play for you like you can

166
00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:01.759
<v Speaker 2>win right away. And that's what Pat Kelsey's been able

167
00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:06.600
<v Speaker 2>to do. So it's just been, it's really been at

168
00:08:06.639 --> 00:08:09.680
<v Speaker 2>times doesn't even seem real, to be honest with you.

169
00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:11.439
<v Speaker 2>But one thing Pat Kelsey did say in his postgame

170
00:08:11.519 --> 00:08:13.720
<v Speaker 2>radio interview, which that's what I was trying to get to,

171
00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:16.399
<v Speaker 2>is that he was asked about Chucky and this was

172
00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:18.480
<v Speaker 2>his this is what he said, quote, he's a great player.

173
00:08:18.519 --> 00:08:20.639
<v Speaker 2>I think one thing that's really important and I don't

174
00:08:20.639 --> 00:08:22.279
<v Speaker 2>even have to say this to our fan base in

175
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:25.360
<v Speaker 2>our city. They already know. I hope this core group

176
00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:28.319
<v Speaker 2>is celebrated and remembered. He goes on to say that

177
00:08:28.360 --> 00:08:31.839
<v Speaker 2>despite guys like Hepburn only being there for one year,

178
00:08:32.200 --> 00:08:35.279
<v Speaker 2>they deserve they deserve the support they've gotten and deserve

179
00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:37.759
<v Speaker 2>to be remembered. And I don't think you'll hear any

180
00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:41.799
<v Speaker 2>pushback from any Louisville fan because this group, I mean,

181
00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:46.120
<v Speaker 2>it reminded you of things that like you used to

182
00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:50.200
<v Speaker 2>take for granted that Louisville, Like just seeing these guys

183
00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:54.960
<v Speaker 2>play hard and seeing them you know, care and you

184
00:08:55.000 --> 00:08:57.919
<v Speaker 2>can tell that they are feeding off of the energy

185
00:08:57.919 --> 00:09:00.000
<v Speaker 2>that the fans have, just because again we've come back

186
00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:01.919
<v Speaker 2>to life, like this is funny again. There were eighteen

187
00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:04.200
<v Speaker 2>thousand plus there And by the way, shout out to

188
00:09:04.240 --> 00:09:07.840
<v Speaker 2>all the fans who did their part and were phenomenal

189
00:09:07.840 --> 00:09:10.799
<v Speaker 2>at executing they stripe out. I mean that looked awesome

190
00:09:10.799 --> 00:09:13.399
<v Speaker 2>on TV, Like we should do that more often. I'd

191
00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:15.600
<v Speaker 2>rather do that than like a redout or a blackout

192
00:09:15.679 --> 00:09:18.399
<v Speaker 2>or a whiteout. I mean, we could do whatever whatever

193
00:09:18.440 --> 00:09:20.639
<v Speaker 2>promotions they think makes the most sense. I'll leave it

194
00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:22.440
<v Speaker 2>to the professionals who you know, do that kind of thing.

195
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:25.759
<v Speaker 2>But I thought that looked really cool. Like not trying

196
00:09:25.759 --> 00:09:27.480
<v Speaker 2>to get ahead of myself, but like, I think it

197
00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:28.559
<v Speaker 2>would be awesome if that was.

198
00:09:28.559 --> 00:09:29.120
<v Speaker 5>Just our thing.

199
00:09:29.559 --> 00:09:31.279
<v Speaker 4>Like that wouldn't be crazy, would it.

200
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:33.120
<v Speaker 2>It's just a known thing that if you're a Louel

201
00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:35.440
<v Speaker 2>fan and you're coming to the game and your section

202
00:09:35.639 --> 00:09:38.840
<v Speaker 2>is odd, it's this color. If it's even, it's that color,

203
00:09:38.879 --> 00:09:40.799
<v Speaker 2>Like that could be something that just kind of becomes

204
00:09:40.799 --> 00:09:43.600
<v Speaker 2>our thing, right. I mean, I'm not going to be

205
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:45.320
<v Speaker 2>able to speak into existence. I'm sure there are people

206
00:09:45.320 --> 00:09:46.720
<v Speaker 2>thinking that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard, but I

207
00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:49.320
<v Speaker 2>just thought it looked really cool. Like esthetically, that was awesome,

208
00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:52.960
<v Speaker 2>and the crowd was great, and it kind of felt like,

209
00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:55.879
<v Speaker 2>even though there's two more games that six pm tip

210
00:09:55.960 --> 00:09:59.440
<v Speaker 2>against Pitt, them doing a good job of really hammering

211
00:09:59.480 --> 00:10:02.919
<v Speaker 2>the promo the stripeout, like kind of felt like that

212
00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:04.639
<v Speaker 2>was one of the moments of Okay, here we are,

213
00:10:04.679 --> 00:10:07.159
<v Speaker 2>biggest crowd of the season, I would imagine, and they

214
00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:11.200
<v Speaker 2>were into it and Chucky hitting six straight threes in

215
00:10:11.240 --> 00:10:14.399
<v Speaker 2>that place, losing it, you know, collectively losing its mind.

216
00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:18.399
<v Speaker 4>It was it was awesome. It was.

217
00:10:18.480 --> 00:10:22.080
<v Speaker 2>Now again about the game, I can't tell you that

218
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:25.120
<v Speaker 2>I think they played poorly. I just think what we

219
00:10:25.200 --> 00:10:28.320
<v Speaker 2>saw against Virginia Tech, it didn't really carry over as

220
00:10:28.360 --> 00:10:30.200
<v Speaker 2>far as like just some of the mistakes, right, Like

221
00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:31.600
<v Speaker 2>they didn't have as many turnovers.

222
00:10:31.960 --> 00:10:35.200
<v Speaker 5>But I think there's still fatigue. There's just there's fatigue.

223
00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:39.399
<v Speaker 2>That I believe is resulting in quicker shots than we're

224
00:10:39.480 --> 00:10:44.080
<v Speaker 2>used to, a questionable decision, maybe not quite as good

225
00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:47.000
<v Speaker 2>defensively at times, and we'll never know, Like sometimes it's

226
00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:49.639
<v Speaker 2>just guys on the other team making plays, and Pittsburgh

227
00:10:49.679 --> 00:10:53.480
<v Speaker 2>certainly has guys capable of doing that. But I just

228
00:10:53.519 --> 00:10:56.519
<v Speaker 2>hope that they haven't run out of gas. And I

229
00:10:56.519 --> 00:10:58.879
<v Speaker 2>don't know for certain that that they have. But I'm

230
00:10:58.879 --> 00:11:01.919
<v Speaker 2>just telling you what i'm viewing with my eyeballs. And

231
00:11:02.000 --> 00:11:04.000
<v Speaker 2>it's not like this team has become a different team.

232
00:11:04.039 --> 00:11:06.279
<v Speaker 2>I just think they're not quite as sharp, and it's

233
00:11:06.320 --> 00:11:08.480
<v Speaker 2>not for lack of trying. I just think they look

234
00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:11.559
<v Speaker 2>a little worn down. And I don't know how you

235
00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:13.279
<v Speaker 2>fix that other than you know, getting rest and that

236
00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:16.159
<v Speaker 2>kind of stuff. But as much as this has been

237
00:11:16.200 --> 00:11:19.159
<v Speaker 2>a fun ride and I'm going to hope that it

238
00:11:19.200 --> 00:11:22.519
<v Speaker 2>continues into the second weekend or maybe even further. But

239
00:11:22.600 --> 00:11:26.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm also you know, you a understand this too, right

240
00:11:26.159 --> 00:11:28.519
<v Speaker 2>Like again, you can make of it what you want.

241
00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:30.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm not telling you to be upset about it or

242
00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:33.240
<v Speaker 2>to be concerned, but I just think there's little things

243
00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:38.080
<v Speaker 2>that they're not quite as sharp with. And I just

244
00:11:38.120 --> 00:11:40.480
<v Speaker 2>assume that it's because here we are, it's March. They

245
00:11:40.480 --> 00:11:41.639
<v Speaker 2>played a lot of basketball.

246
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:43.080
<v Speaker 5>The core lineup.

247
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:45.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean, these guys are playing thirty plus minutes a

248
00:11:45.480 --> 00:11:49.960
<v Speaker 2>game every night. Are on the Kentucky side, I mean,

249
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:52.480
<v Speaker 2>they now know they've they've got Jackson Robinson done for

250
00:11:52.519 --> 00:11:54.399
<v Speaker 2>the year. Certainly not ideal, but at least now you

251
00:11:54.480 --> 00:11:57.559
<v Speaker 2>know what you have to work with. And I mean,

252
00:11:57.559 --> 00:12:01.519
<v Speaker 2>I think the fact that they're now a three according

253
00:12:01.559 --> 00:12:07.320
<v Speaker 2>to Joelenardi, I mean, doesn't that prove.

254
00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:10.559
<v Speaker 4>That, like their resume is.

255
00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:13.279
<v Speaker 2>I mean, they could they could forfeit these next two

256
00:12:13.320 --> 00:12:16.159
<v Speaker 2>games and probably not fall on the seed line. I mean,

257
00:12:17.039 --> 00:12:20.919
<v Speaker 2>that's not that's clearly a silly hypothetical that would never happen.

258
00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:25.080
<v Speaker 2>But I'm just saying, right now, this Kentucky team, after

259
00:12:25.120 --> 00:12:28.000
<v Speaker 2>their loss to after their ninety four to seventy eight

260
00:12:28.039 --> 00:12:30.039
<v Speaker 2>loss to Auburn, which, by the way, I think a

261
00:12:30.039 --> 00:12:31.799
<v Speaker 2>lot of teams would lose to Auburn by a score

262
00:12:31.799 --> 00:12:32.120
<v Speaker 2>of that.

263
00:12:33.759 --> 00:12:34.240
<v Speaker 4>I mean, maybe not.

264
00:12:34.279 --> 00:12:36.480
<v Speaker 2>I guess some teams have competed better. But nonetheless that

265
00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:40.000
<v Speaker 2>that didn't hurt Kentucky. It really didn't. It probably didn't

266
00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:42.159
<v Speaker 2>make you feel good, right. I think every Kentucky fan

267
00:12:42.240 --> 00:12:45.399
<v Speaker 2>knows that they're in a really good situation as far

268
00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:48.480
<v Speaker 2>as their seed, their resume, and they have proven that

269
00:12:48.519 --> 00:12:51.639
<v Speaker 2>they can beat good teams even when not healthy. But

270
00:12:51.679 --> 00:12:53.360
<v Speaker 2>I think when you as a Kentucky fan, one of

271
00:12:53.399 --> 00:12:56.200
<v Speaker 2>you don't you don't You don't often lose ten games

272
00:12:56.200 --> 00:12:58.480
<v Speaker 2>in the regular season like that doesn't happen very often, doesn't.

273
00:12:58.559 --> 00:13:01.120
<v Speaker 2>Maybe it does and I just don't remember, But I

274
00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:02.799
<v Speaker 2>think when you see your team lose as much as

275
00:13:02.840 --> 00:13:05.399
<v Speaker 2>this group has, I mean since and by the way,

276
00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:08.200
<v Speaker 2>what was the graphic that fan Doeill put out there

277
00:13:08.240 --> 00:13:09.440
<v Speaker 2>which I thought was hilarious?

278
00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:11.759
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, FanDuel.

279
00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:15.960
<v Speaker 2>After the game on Saturday, they posted a graphic that

280
00:13:16.120 --> 00:13:19.360
<v Speaker 2>shows Mark Pope's face and it says mistake question Mark,

281
00:13:19.399 --> 00:13:22.159
<v Speaker 2>And they go on to mention that Kentucky's five and

282
00:13:22.240 --> 00:13:25.320
<v Speaker 2>seven in their last twelve games. So again, seeing that

283
00:13:26.159 --> 00:13:28.200
<v Speaker 2>five and seven in your last twelve, like, that's not

284
00:13:28.320 --> 00:13:32.039
<v Speaker 2>normal for Kentucky basketball, at least I don't believe it is. Therefore,

285
00:13:32.399 --> 00:13:33.919
<v Speaker 2>you know, you know you're in a good spot. You've

286
00:13:33.960 --> 00:13:36.120
<v Speaker 2>watched your team get big wins that will make you

287
00:13:36.159 --> 00:13:38.000
<v Speaker 2>feel confident in what they can do in March. But

288
00:13:38.039 --> 00:13:40.559
<v Speaker 2>I just think they realize they could slip up and

289
00:13:40.559 --> 00:13:45.240
<v Speaker 2>lose to a lot of teams. So losing to Auburn

290
00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:48.600
<v Speaker 2>it's really no I mean, it's nothing to feel bad about.

291
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:51.240
<v Speaker 2>But again, Kentucky's not a program that really ever expects

292
00:13:51.240 --> 00:13:53.840
<v Speaker 2>to get blown out by anybody on their home floor. Now,

293
00:13:53.840 --> 00:13:55.159
<v Speaker 2>the good news is they didn't have to see the

294
00:13:55.200 --> 00:13:57.840
<v Speaker 2>end of it because of the technical issues that were

295
00:13:57.840 --> 00:14:01.679
<v Speaker 2>caused by some kind of electrical fire somewhere that led

296
00:14:01.720 --> 00:14:05.720
<v Speaker 2>to the ABC truck that you know, gets this broadcast

297
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:09.399
<v Speaker 2>out to the world. They lost power all together, and

298
00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:12.320
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I can't remember. I'm sure it's happened, and

299
00:14:12.320 --> 00:14:14.159
<v Speaker 2>it's just games that I don't watch or don't care

300
00:14:14.200 --> 00:14:16.840
<v Speaker 2>about in other sports, maybe even college basketball, but we're

301
00:14:16.840 --> 00:14:23.039
<v Speaker 2>talking about an ABC national broadcast unable to carry roughly

302
00:14:23.080 --> 00:14:26.559
<v Speaker 2>you know, twenty five to thirty percent of a game

303
00:14:27.919 --> 00:14:31.039
<v Speaker 2>that has the number one team in the country playing

304
00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:33.799
<v Speaker 2>against you know, Kentucky at Rapperina and they can't get

305
00:14:33.799 --> 00:14:37.440
<v Speaker 2>it on TV. And they really did Kentucky fans a favor.

306
00:14:37.480 --> 00:14:39.440
<v Speaker 2>I suppose they didn't have to actually watch the end

307
00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:40.559
<v Speaker 2>of it. They can kind of put them out of

308
00:14:40.559 --> 00:14:44.159
<v Speaker 2>their misery. But the first thing I thought of whenever

309
00:14:44.360 --> 00:14:46.360
<v Speaker 2>I realized that, hey, they're not going to get this

310
00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:48.240
<v Speaker 2>thing back on TV. They're going to be going to

311
00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:50.679
<v Speaker 2>some kind of a hockey thing or something that was

312
00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:55.279
<v Speaker 2>on ABC. I mean, imagine if that was a close

313
00:14:55.360 --> 00:14:59.519
<v Speaker 2>game where Kentucky's winning and it's you know, it's neck

314
00:14:59.559 --> 00:15:03.639
<v Speaker 2>and neck, and they have this technical issue and they lose,

315
00:15:03.759 --> 00:15:06.480
<v Speaker 2>they just they play commercials for ten minutes straight, like

316
00:15:06.519 --> 00:15:08.519
<v Speaker 2>they did initially where they were trying to, I guess

317
00:15:08.679 --> 00:15:11.360
<v Speaker 2>figure out what they were gonna do. Imagine you pull

318
00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:13.960
<v Speaker 2>out your phone to like do the you know, you're

319
00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:16.759
<v Speaker 2>watching either stat broadcast or you're watching like the game

320
00:15:16.799 --> 00:15:19.240
<v Speaker 2>cast on ESPN where you're not watching the game, but

321
00:15:19.320 --> 00:15:21.440
<v Speaker 2>it's like showing you in real time the plays that

322
00:15:21.480 --> 00:15:27.679
<v Speaker 2>are happening. I mean, imagine imagine that like and yet

323
00:15:27.960 --> 00:15:29.679
<v Speaker 2>like you can't see it, but yet you know, oh

324
00:15:29.679 --> 00:15:31.480
<v Speaker 2>my god, we just hit a three. Now it's tied.

325
00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:34.080
<v Speaker 2>Oh wow, we got to steal in a layup. We

326
00:15:34.399 --> 00:15:36.559
<v Speaker 2>got a run going here, And I don't know what

327
00:15:36.559 --> 00:15:37.879
<v Speaker 2>they would have done. I don't know what they could

328
00:15:37.879 --> 00:15:40.200
<v Speaker 2>have done. But like, we know how that fan base is.

329
00:15:40.559 --> 00:15:43.639
<v Speaker 2>I mean, every fan base has some crazies, but Kentucky's

330
00:15:43.679 --> 00:15:47.279
<v Speaker 2>fan base there's a big billion people. They're everywhere, They're

331
00:15:47.320 --> 00:15:50.639
<v Speaker 2>all over the place. Like, imagine if they wanted to

332
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:53.200
<v Speaker 2>watch and they couldn't imagine if it was like a

333
00:15:53.279 --> 00:15:55.440
<v Speaker 2>thrilling finish that would have been an all timer for

334
00:15:55.519 --> 00:15:58.159
<v Speaker 2>Mark Pope in his first year and they couldn't see it,

335
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:01.200
<v Speaker 2>they would have lost their minds. Instead, they were you know,

336
00:16:01.559 --> 00:16:04.159
<v Speaker 2>probably bitching and complaining. But also like, yeah, I kind

337
00:16:04.159 --> 00:16:06.480
<v Speaker 2>of don't want to see this because man, Auburn's having

338
00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:07.159
<v Speaker 2>their way with us.

339
00:16:08.200 --> 00:16:09.480
<v Speaker 5>So it actually kind of worked out.

340
00:16:09.480 --> 00:16:12.879
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's the silver lining for Kentucky because you know,

341
00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:16.399
<v Speaker 2>they didn't have to watch how it all ended. But yeah,

342
00:16:16.440 --> 00:16:19.879
<v Speaker 2>five and seven in their last twelve games. You know,

343
00:16:20.200 --> 00:16:23.480
<v Speaker 2>it's not ideal. And yes they are losing to teams

344
00:16:23.480 --> 00:16:27.879
<v Speaker 2>that are also good. But if I didn't believe this,

345
00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:29.879
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't say it, and maybe I'm wrong, like maybe

346
00:16:29.919 --> 00:16:32.600
<v Speaker 2>Pope flames out and like he isn't a guy long

347
00:16:32.679 --> 00:16:36.519
<v Speaker 2>term there that's successful. But the more I watch Kentucky

348
00:16:36.519 --> 00:16:39.240
<v Speaker 2>and the more I look at their resume and look at,

349
00:16:39.279 --> 00:16:41.320
<v Speaker 2>you know, the really good wins they have despite having

350
00:16:41.320 --> 00:16:44.679
<v Speaker 2>ten losses and despite being a five hundred team in

351
00:16:44.840 --> 00:16:47.440
<v Speaker 2>conference play. In fact, they're looking at most likely being

352
00:16:47.519 --> 00:16:51.399
<v Speaker 2>a nine to nine SEC team if if this thing

353
00:16:51.480 --> 00:16:54.879
<v Speaker 2>goes the way Ken Palm projects in their last two games,

354
00:16:55.240 --> 00:16:58.840
<v Speaker 2>they'll finish twenty and eleven, and I think in most

355
00:16:58.879 --> 00:17:00.679
<v Speaker 2>instances you would say that's not a great year for

356
00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:02.840
<v Speaker 2>the Kentucky standard. But again, they've got good wins that

357
00:17:02.879 --> 00:17:05.480
<v Speaker 2>are going to get them a really good seed. So

358
00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:10.200
<v Speaker 2>I think Kentucky is in the position they're in more

359
00:17:10.279 --> 00:17:13.200
<v Speaker 2>because of him as a coach than because of their players,

360
00:17:13.640 --> 00:17:16.880
<v Speaker 2>which is the opposite. Typically, I feel like Kentucky teams

361
00:17:16.880 --> 00:17:19.759
<v Speaker 2>coached under Caliperry, you would always feel like they should

362
00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:23.480
<v Speaker 2>be better, right like they have. Like last year, there's

363
00:17:23.519 --> 00:17:25.279
<v Speaker 2>no I mean, not only should they have not lost

364
00:17:25.319 --> 00:17:27.680
<v Speaker 2>in the first round to Oakland, they also you know,

365
00:17:27.759 --> 00:17:29.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean they could have been, in my opinion, one

366
00:17:29.000 --> 00:17:30.680
<v Speaker 2>of the best teams in the country with those regards

367
00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:32.559
<v Speaker 2>they have, but they never played they never played together

368
00:17:32.599 --> 00:17:35.640
<v Speaker 2>because Calvi was stubborn. So you know, like, I don't

369
00:17:35.640 --> 00:17:38.559
<v Speaker 2>think many Kentucky fans are out there thinking that Pope's

370
00:17:38.839 --> 00:17:40.640
<v Speaker 2>like in trouble and he's not going to be able

371
00:17:40.640 --> 00:17:42.960
<v Speaker 2>to win. But to see Fandel put that out there,

372
00:17:43.000 --> 00:17:44.680
<v Speaker 2>like what that did, and it wasn't like something that

373
00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:47.960
<v Speaker 2>made me angry because I don't care. But it's just

374
00:17:48.000 --> 00:17:50.599
<v Speaker 2>a perfect example of like whoever posted that is probably

375
00:17:50.640 --> 00:17:52.839
<v Speaker 2>like a twenty two year old, twenty three year old

376
00:17:53.440 --> 00:17:56.519
<v Speaker 2>that their job isn't to like put out content that

377
00:17:56.559 --> 00:18:00.720
<v Speaker 2>makes people think, wow, this person knows college basketball. It's

378
00:18:00.759 --> 00:18:03.359
<v Speaker 2>somebody putting up content to do what they call engagement.

379
00:18:03.359 --> 00:18:07.240
<v Speaker 2>For me, putting something out there that you know is

380
00:18:07.279 --> 00:18:09.359
<v Speaker 2>going to get a ton of reaction for people, because

381
00:18:09.359 --> 00:18:11.279
<v Speaker 2>you know that's how it works now, even if it

382
00:18:11.319 --> 00:18:14.000
<v Speaker 2>is for shock value. If people are engaging in your content,

383
00:18:14.119 --> 00:18:17.119
<v Speaker 2>that's that's that's what you want, especially if you're somebody

384
00:18:17.119 --> 00:18:20.119
<v Speaker 2>that you know is operating the social media accounts for

385
00:18:20.160 --> 00:18:25.279
<v Speaker 2>a platform like Vando Sportsbook. But yeah, that that tweet

386
00:18:25.799 --> 00:18:28.160
<v Speaker 2>with that graphic that says Kentucky's five and seven and

387
00:18:28.200 --> 00:18:31.759
<v Speaker 2>its last twelve games was hiring Mark popa mistake question Mark,

388
00:18:31.759 --> 00:18:33.680
<v Speaker 2>and it also had a graphic it's got over a

389
00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:34.640
<v Speaker 2>million impressions.

390
00:18:34.640 --> 00:18:35.279
<v Speaker 4>So they won.

391
00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:37.359
<v Speaker 5>They won.

392
00:18:38.319 --> 00:18:39.799
<v Speaker 2>I mean, look, if it doesn't work out for Pope,

393
00:18:39.839 --> 00:18:41.920
<v Speaker 2>trust me, I'm not going to be sad, but I

394
00:18:42.039 --> 00:18:46.799
<v Speaker 2>just I think they have probably done better than most

395
00:18:46.839 --> 00:18:49.079
<v Speaker 2>people would because I don't like who's great on their team. Like,

396
00:18:49.079 --> 00:18:51.359
<v Speaker 2>they got good players, trust me, but like I don't

397
00:18:51.359 --> 00:18:55.079
<v Speaker 2>know who's like elite. I think Otega always really good.

398
00:18:55.079 --> 00:18:57.160
<v Speaker 2>I think he's their best player, and not many people

399
00:18:57.160 --> 00:18:57.920
<v Speaker 2>talk about it enough.

400
00:18:57.920 --> 00:18:58.519
<v Speaker 4>To be honest with.

401
00:18:58.480 --> 00:19:01.680
<v Speaker 2>You, Mari Wims is good, really good.

402
00:19:01.680 --> 00:19:03.480
<v Speaker 4>Actually, so they got good players.

403
00:19:03.480 --> 00:19:06.720
<v Speaker 2>But I mean put it this way, if they lose

404
00:19:06.759 --> 00:19:08.759
<v Speaker 2>in the round of thirty two, I won't be shocked,

405
00:19:09.039 --> 00:19:11.240
<v Speaker 2>and it won't be because Pope's a bad coach. I

406
00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:14.960
<v Speaker 2>just think he's done a pretty good job comparatively speaking.

407
00:19:16.079 --> 00:19:18.200
<v Speaker 2>Now I need to go throw up, all right, quick break,

408
00:19:18.200 --> 00:19:21.400
<v Speaker 2>we'll come back on the other side. Sounds like the

409
00:19:21.440 --> 00:19:25.920
<v Speaker 2>settlement is about done between the ACC and Florida State

410
00:19:25.920 --> 00:19:28.200
<v Speaker 2>and Clemson, which you know, that's good news for the league.

411
00:19:28.200 --> 00:19:31.240
<v Speaker 2>It's never good for schools in your conference to be

412
00:19:31.279 --> 00:19:34.160
<v Speaker 2>suing the conference, all right, stick with us. It's coffee

413
00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:35.839
<v Speaker 2>and company. Feel about Thorn's right here on Sports Talk

414
00:19:35.880 --> 00:19:36.799
<v Speaker 2>seven ninety.

415
00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:40.599
<v Speaker 1>Now back to coffee and Company, fueled by Thornton's on

416
00:19:40.759 --> 00:19:44.880
<v Speaker 1>Sports Talk seven nine day.

417
00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:47.759
<v Speaker 2>So, Florida State and Clemson are going to vote tomorrow

418
00:19:47.799 --> 00:19:51.839
<v Speaker 2>on an agreement that would ultimately result in them settling

419
00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:59.039
<v Speaker 2>four ongoing lawsuits. ESPN's David Hale and Andrew Adelson reported

420
00:19:59.039 --> 00:20:01.279
<v Speaker 2>this earlier, But the ace SC presidents are set to

421
00:20:01.359 --> 00:20:06.519
<v Speaker 2>vote on terms of a of new TV money distribution.

422
00:20:06.759 --> 00:20:08.319
<v Speaker 5>So here are the details.

423
00:20:08.359 --> 00:20:12.200
<v Speaker 2>Forty percent of the TV money will be distributed evenly

424
00:20:12.240 --> 00:20:18.440
<v Speaker 2>among ACC's the legacy ACC schools, which is the everybody really,

425
00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:19.400
<v Speaker 2>it's everybody other.

426
00:20:19.279 --> 00:20:20.920
<v Speaker 4>Than the three teams that joined it this year.

427
00:20:21.680 --> 00:20:24.559
<v Speaker 2>And then sixty percent of the TV money will be

428
00:20:24.599 --> 00:20:29.599
<v Speaker 2>based off ratings. And it's yeah, it's rating. It's based

429
00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:33.039
<v Speaker 2>off ratings formula over the last five years. So top

430
00:20:33.079 --> 00:20:37.240
<v Speaker 2>ACC earners could net more than fifteen million, while some

431
00:20:37.279 --> 00:20:41.720
<v Speaker 2>schools could get a net deduction and annual payout of

432
00:20:41.759 --> 00:20:45.599
<v Speaker 2>about seven million. Also something that will be in place

433
00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:47.920
<v Speaker 2>following the year twenty nine to thirty.

434
00:20:47.960 --> 00:20:49.559
<v Speaker 4>Is that the amount of money.

435
00:20:49.400 --> 00:20:51.559
<v Speaker 2>That it'll that it will cost you to drop out

436
00:20:51.559 --> 00:20:53.759
<v Speaker 2>of the league is going to be below one hundred million,

437
00:20:53.839 --> 00:20:56.799
<v Speaker 2>so still expensive, but I mean, I don't remember what

438
00:20:56.799 --> 00:20:59.720
<v Speaker 2>the exact number was, but what it apparently was going

439
00:20:59.759 --> 00:21:03.319
<v Speaker 2>to call to get out of the acc which again

440
00:21:03.319 --> 00:21:04.960
<v Speaker 2>that was the whole thing, is the Grand of Rights.

441
00:21:05.000 --> 00:21:07.559
<v Speaker 2>And in Clemson, I don't know if I believe them.

442
00:21:07.559 --> 00:21:10.079
<v Speaker 2>They claimed that they didn't They didn't follow a lawsuit

443
00:21:10.079 --> 00:21:12.000
<v Speaker 2>because they were looking to leave. They filed a lawsuit

444
00:21:12.039 --> 00:21:14.440
<v Speaker 2>because they didn't, you know, they wanted they were trying

445
00:21:14.440 --> 00:21:16.240
<v Speaker 2>to protect themselves and they wanted to make sure they

446
00:21:16.440 --> 00:21:18.200
<v Speaker 2>could have access to the Grand of Rights to really

447
00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:20.319
<v Speaker 2>know their situation, which, to be honest, is a fair,

448
00:21:21.160 --> 00:21:23.920
<v Speaker 2>fair request. I mean, to know exactly what you are

449
00:21:25.079 --> 00:21:28.200
<v Speaker 2>bound to contractually, which that was what really just I

450
00:21:28.240 --> 00:21:30.640
<v Speaker 2>never mean, I never could make any sense of it.

451
00:21:31.200 --> 00:21:34.160
<v Speaker 2>I have no experience in you know, contracts, legal stuff,

452
00:21:34.200 --> 00:21:37.079
<v Speaker 2>that kind of thing. But the fact that nobody could

453
00:21:37.119 --> 00:21:39.200
<v Speaker 2>actually see the grant of rights and you had to

454
00:21:39.200 --> 00:21:42.559
<v Speaker 2>actually like schedule a meeting to go view it with

455
00:21:43.400 --> 00:21:46.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, legal counsel present at the AEC headquarters like

456
00:21:46.720 --> 00:21:49.240
<v Speaker 2>that just seemed really weird. But again, maybe that's more

457
00:21:49.279 --> 00:21:53.839
<v Speaker 2>formal than I realize. But overall, you know, I think

458
00:21:53.880 --> 00:21:57.759
<v Speaker 2>you got teams like Clemson, LSU, I'm sorry Clemson, FSU,

459
00:21:57.799 --> 00:22:02.480
<v Speaker 2>not LSU, Louisville, Miami, maybe even SMU, like they're going

460
00:22:02.559 --> 00:22:06.319
<v Speaker 2>to continue to be able to like if ratings kind

461
00:22:06.359 --> 00:22:09.000
<v Speaker 2>of stay the way they've been. Those are the schools

462
00:22:09.039 --> 00:22:11.160
<v Speaker 2>that will be able to make more money than they

463
00:22:11.240 --> 00:22:14.680
<v Speaker 2>previously did because of the new structure here. If you

464
00:22:14.759 --> 00:22:17.599
<v Speaker 2>end up bringing more value, meaning more eyeballs watch when

465
00:22:17.640 --> 00:22:19.759
<v Speaker 2>you play, you get a bigger piece of the pie.

466
00:22:19.799 --> 00:22:21.440
<v Speaker 5>Which again, that's the way that it should be.

467
00:22:21.920 --> 00:22:25.319
<v Speaker 2>And I will be interested to see if whenever there

468
00:22:25.359 --> 00:22:28.640
<v Speaker 2>are reups elsewhere with the SEC, the Big Ten, the

469
00:22:28.640 --> 00:22:31.680
<v Speaker 2>Big twelve, if they don't follow the same thing, because

470
00:22:32.279 --> 00:22:34.440
<v Speaker 2>why would you not, I mean should you should eat

471
00:22:34.440 --> 00:22:35.000
<v Speaker 2>what you kill?

472
00:22:35.079 --> 00:22:36.400
<v Speaker 5>Right, Like you should be able to.

473
00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:41.319
<v Speaker 4>Make more if you earn more for the league.

474
00:22:41.519 --> 00:22:44.359
<v Speaker 2>And you know those other leagues aren't hurting for money, right, Clearly,

475
00:22:44.359 --> 00:22:47.039
<v Speaker 2>the SEC and the Big Ten are in a much

476
00:22:47.119 --> 00:22:50.759
<v Speaker 2>different and much better financial situation than the other leagues.

477
00:22:51.400 --> 00:22:54.000
<v Speaker 2>But again, with you now having to share revenue with

478
00:22:54.079 --> 00:22:57.599
<v Speaker 2>athletes and roughly a twenty million dollar you know, roughly

479
00:22:57.599 --> 00:22:58.640
<v Speaker 2>a twenty million.

480
00:22:58.359 --> 00:23:01.880
<v Speaker 5>Dollar bill, you know, on the line.

481
00:23:02.839 --> 00:23:05.839
<v Speaker 4>And by the way, I'm sorry, I'm super distracted here.

482
00:23:05.880 --> 00:23:06.759
<v Speaker 4>Does this ever happened to you?

483
00:23:06.759 --> 00:23:09.920
<v Speaker 2>Here at iHeart where you're on on a computer and

484
00:23:10.039 --> 00:23:13.720
<v Speaker 2>somebody's logging in? What do you mean, like, like this

485
00:23:13.799 --> 00:23:16.359
<v Speaker 2>computer that I'm on on the air, there's somebody that

486
00:23:16.480 --> 00:23:17.759
<v Speaker 2>is accessing it remotely.

487
00:23:18.240 --> 00:23:20.599
<v Speaker 5>Oh, yeah, yeah, that's happened. Why are they doing that?

488
00:23:21.720 --> 00:23:24.960
<v Speaker 3>Could be your man, Gus, he could be logging into

489
00:23:25.160 --> 00:23:28.279
<v Speaker 3>you're talking about the one tier left right, Yeah, that one.

490
00:23:28.920 --> 00:23:31.400
<v Speaker 3>Probably someone setting the logs for the next day or something.

491
00:23:31.559 --> 00:23:35.680
<v Speaker 2>Somebody's playing the X files sound oh interesting, Like I don't.

492
00:23:35.720 --> 00:23:40.680
<v Speaker 4>I don't, it's it's just distracting me.

493
00:23:42.039 --> 00:23:43.000
<v Speaker 5>Maybe it's a ghost.

494
00:23:43.279 --> 00:23:49.119
<v Speaker 4>Oh it's not, but like maybe the room's haunted. I mean,

495
00:23:49.519 --> 00:23:52.000
<v Speaker 4>well that won't mess with the show, right, I guess.

496
00:23:51.920 --> 00:23:55.680
<v Speaker 5>No, No, it's probably no. I don't. But like here's anything.

497
00:23:56.279 --> 00:23:59.319
<v Speaker 2>I had the board pulled up like on button bar

498
00:23:59.440 --> 00:24:02.000
<v Speaker 2>one here and they're playing it like it would be

499
00:24:02.000 --> 00:24:05.319
<v Speaker 2>playing on my show, right, it.

500
00:24:05.240 --> 00:24:06.240
<v Speaker 5>Would be because it's on.

501
00:24:06.400 --> 00:24:08.400
<v Speaker 4>I mean, it's it's anyways.

502
00:24:08.000 --> 00:24:09.680
<v Speaker 5>I guess it depends. Yeah, I'm not seeing anything on

503
00:24:09.720 --> 00:24:10.039
<v Speaker 5>my head.

504
00:24:10.119 --> 00:24:12.519
<v Speaker 2>It just distracted me. Then it's fine because it's probably not.

505
00:24:12.920 --> 00:24:15.759
<v Speaker 2>But of all the I try not to get distracted.

506
00:24:15.759 --> 00:24:16.319
<v Speaker 5>I always talk.

507
00:24:16.240 --> 00:24:17.839
<v Speaker 2>About wanting to have a window and all that, but

508
00:24:17.920 --> 00:24:19.799
<v Speaker 2>it's probably good that they keep me in this dark cave.

509
00:24:20.200 --> 00:24:22.720
<v Speaker 2>But whenever I see somebody moving around on a computer

510
00:24:22.799 --> 00:24:24.200
<v Speaker 2>that i'm you know, that's right in front of me

511
00:24:24.440 --> 00:24:26.759
<v Speaker 2>and it's not me, I feel like I've been violated.

512
00:24:26.920 --> 00:24:29.880
<v Speaker 2>But clearly if they can, if they if they can

513
00:24:29.960 --> 00:24:32.400
<v Speaker 2>log in, then clearly they you know, then they have

514
00:24:32.680 --> 00:24:36.799
<v Speaker 2>access to you know, I'm assuming we're not getting hacked.

515
00:24:36.799 --> 00:24:40.759
<v Speaker 2>It's probably somebody working here. But again, this like the

516
00:24:40.759 --> 00:24:42.839
<v Speaker 2>the next gen system in front of me, like it's

517
00:24:42.839 --> 00:24:45.599
<v Speaker 2>showing w k r D, it's showing r log, it's

518
00:24:45.599 --> 00:24:48.640
<v Speaker 2>showing me the clock. So like anything they're doing on

519
00:24:49.319 --> 00:24:52.079
<v Speaker 2>in next gen, like it's like it's not for anything

520
00:24:52.079 --> 00:24:53.920
<v Speaker 2>other than this station, which I don't know why they would,

521
00:24:53.920 --> 00:24:56.079
<v Speaker 2>you know what I'm saying, Like, it doesn't again until

522
00:24:56.240 --> 00:24:58.519
<v Speaker 2>until something falls apart or breaks. Then I'll just assume

523
00:24:58.559 --> 00:25:00.359
<v Speaker 2>that they know what they're doing. But does that have

524
00:25:00.359 --> 00:25:05.480
<v Speaker 2>me a little bit worried and well, never mind, it's

525
00:25:05.519 --> 00:25:08.279
<v Speaker 2>a conversation for a different day. I wasn't gonna I

526
00:25:08.279 --> 00:25:10.119
<v Speaker 2>wasn't gonna like complain, but I was going to talk

527
00:25:10.160 --> 00:25:12.359
<v Speaker 2>about something that I that I that I gladly had

528
00:25:12.359 --> 00:25:14.359
<v Speaker 2>the awareness of that nobody would know what I'm talking

529
00:25:14.359 --> 00:25:16.519
<v Speaker 2>about and nobody cares so well at least.

530
00:25:16.680 --> 00:25:18.759
<v Speaker 3>I would you rather be distracted by that than the

531
00:25:18.880 --> 00:25:21.400
<v Speaker 3>than the constant banging with the construction that's been going

532
00:25:21.400 --> 00:25:22.400
<v Speaker 3>on in the last few days.

533
00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:24.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I guess they must have known I was coming

534
00:25:24.720 --> 00:25:25.519
<v Speaker 4>because they stopped.

535
00:25:26.119 --> 00:25:27.839
<v Speaker 5>They were probably in full swing of it, and then

536
00:25:27.880 --> 00:25:28.440
<v Speaker 5>they saw you.

537
00:25:28.400 --> 00:25:30.559
<v Speaker 2>Pull up and they realized, Hey, they need to prepare,

538
00:25:30.359 --> 00:25:33.000
<v Speaker 2>They need to behave themselves and get their work done

539
00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:36.880
<v Speaker 2>before the show starts. Because you know, that would be

540
00:25:36.880 --> 00:25:39.799
<v Speaker 2>really distracting. If I could hear it through your like

541
00:25:39.839 --> 00:25:41.759
<v Speaker 2>when I was doing the show remotely Friday, and I

542
00:25:41.759 --> 00:25:43.960
<v Speaker 2>could hear it when you were on the air, imagine

543
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:45.000
<v Speaker 2>what it would sound like in here.

544
00:25:45.839 --> 00:25:47.160
<v Speaker 5>Have you heard any of it today?

545
00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:47.319
<v Speaker 1>No?

546
00:25:47.559 --> 00:25:50.240
<v Speaker 2>I heard like I heard something, but not the banging.

547
00:25:50.680 --> 00:25:52.079
<v Speaker 2>They were doing something, but you know.

548
00:25:52.319 --> 00:25:54.359
<v Speaker 3>Anything, it was a little bit more faint today. Maybe

549
00:25:54.400 --> 00:25:56.559
<v Speaker 3>they'd moved deeper into the bathroom and not at the

550
00:25:57.079 --> 00:25:58.839
<v Speaker 3>parts that was literally just right next.

551
00:25:58.960 --> 00:26:01.000
<v Speaker 4>They must be like completely redoing that bathroom.

552
00:26:01.079 --> 00:26:03.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, everything, because I saw somebody walk out of there

553
00:26:03.720 --> 00:26:06.279
<v Speaker 3>earlier today when I left for lunch, and it looked

554
00:26:06.279 --> 00:26:07.599
<v Speaker 3>completely gutted in there.

555
00:26:07.920 --> 00:26:10.039
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean I haven't been in there again.

556
00:26:10.079 --> 00:26:13.000
<v Speaker 2>We talked about last Friday, just my experience in the bathrooms,

557
00:26:13.000 --> 00:26:16.160
<v Speaker 2>the public bathrooms here and you know, dump it for

558
00:26:16.480 --> 00:26:17.920
<v Speaker 2>I mean, who does it right and who does it

559
00:26:18.200 --> 00:26:20.680
<v Speaker 2>and and you know it happens at times, but yeah,

560
00:26:20.960 --> 00:26:23.359
<v Speaker 2>not ideal whenever you're waiting in line at a concert.

561
00:26:24.000 --> 00:26:25.599
<v Speaker 4>Answered, Yeah, that's true. It's true.

562
00:26:25.640 --> 00:26:27.839
<v Speaker 2>You know, you don't really. It's one of those things,

563
00:26:27.839 --> 00:26:31.400
<v Speaker 2>you know, I envy. I envy people who can determine

564
00:26:32.160 --> 00:26:34.640
<v Speaker 2>when it's gonna happen. I can't. Like, there's no like

565
00:26:35.160 --> 00:26:37.440
<v Speaker 2>I think I need to go. When I'm gonna go,

566
00:26:37.480 --> 00:26:39.279
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna go, so like I gotta you know, I'm

567
00:26:39.279 --> 00:26:41.559
<v Speaker 2>gonna find a situation to you know, do exactly that.

568
00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:43.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you went to the funeral home. Not that long

569
00:26:43.519 --> 00:26:45.440
<v Speaker 3>are Yeah? Yeah you had to stop and pull over.

570
00:26:45.480 --> 00:26:47.559
<v Speaker 5>Were we working together then? Yeah? We were? Okay, was

571
00:26:48.119 --> 00:26:51.359
<v Speaker 5>that early stages because I remember I think I must

572
00:26:51.599 --> 00:26:52.920
<v Speaker 5>I might have been filling.

573
00:26:52.640 --> 00:26:54.440
<v Speaker 2>In, yeah, because that was a while back, but yes,

574
00:26:54.480 --> 00:26:58.359
<v Speaker 2>like I I mean, I man, that's a perfect example

575
00:26:58.400 --> 00:26:59.960
<v Speaker 2>of exactly what I was just talking about.

576
00:27:00.079 --> 00:27:02.039
<v Speaker 5>Where like I had to go.

577
00:27:02.519 --> 00:27:05.599
<v Speaker 2>There was no business, no establishment where I could go

578
00:27:05.640 --> 00:27:08.079
<v Speaker 2>where I knew there was a public restroom, but there

579
00:27:08.119 --> 00:27:11.039
<v Speaker 2>was a funeral home nearby that you know, like I've

580
00:27:11.200 --> 00:27:14.599
<v Speaker 2>been too many times because unfortunately the people who I

581
00:27:14.680 --> 00:27:17.359
<v Speaker 2>know that have passed away, that's that's where they usually

582
00:27:17.440 --> 00:27:22.440
<v Speaker 2>have their visitation and whatnot. And I mean luckily they weren't.

583
00:27:22.599 --> 00:27:23.039
<v Speaker 4>They weren't.

584
00:27:23.119 --> 00:27:25.119
<v Speaker 2>It was early, there was nobody there yet other than

585
00:27:25.119 --> 00:27:27.039
<v Speaker 2>the workers. But I walked in and I knew exactly

586
00:27:27.039 --> 00:27:28.960
<v Speaker 2>where I needed to go to handle some business. And

587
00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:31.240
<v Speaker 2>I walked out, and I kind of felt like I

588
00:27:31.359 --> 00:27:32.759
<v Speaker 2>violated somebody who just died.

589
00:27:32.839 --> 00:27:35.240
<v Speaker 4>But again, when you gotta go, you gotta go.

590
00:27:35.920 --> 00:27:38.839
<v Speaker 3>I've never when it comes when it comes to the number,

591
00:27:38.880 --> 00:27:40.960
<v Speaker 3>when it comes to the number two, when we're talking

592
00:27:41.000 --> 00:27:41.599
<v Speaker 3>about like what you.

593
00:27:41.640 --> 00:27:42.559
<v Speaker 5>Who does know what to work for?

594
00:27:42.680 --> 00:27:44.400
<v Speaker 4>Really, I was like.

595
00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:48.200
<v Speaker 3>I've never been in a situation even though I have

596
00:27:48.279 --> 00:27:50.359
<v Speaker 3>to go to where I'm like I gotta stop and

597
00:27:50.400 --> 00:27:52.160
<v Speaker 3>pull over unless or this is coming out.

598
00:27:52.240 --> 00:27:54.279
<v Speaker 4>God bless you now when it comes to you.

599
00:27:54.480 --> 00:27:57.000
<v Speaker 3>When it comes to like, it's a completely different story.

600
00:27:57.039 --> 00:27:59.119
<v Speaker 3>I will stop in the middle of the highway and

601
00:27:59.240 --> 00:28:01.359
<v Speaker 3>just go out and do whatever, find any sort of

602
00:28:01.400 --> 00:28:04.119
<v Speaker 3>bush nearby. But I can wait, even if it's like

603
00:28:04.240 --> 00:28:07.279
<v Speaker 3>killing my stomach, I can wait. I can wait until I,

604
00:28:07.359 --> 00:28:09.720
<v Speaker 3>like you said, until I get home, bathroom advantage or

605
00:28:09.720 --> 00:28:12.400
<v Speaker 3>any sort of poop privacy. But like when it comes

606
00:28:12.400 --> 00:28:14.319
<v Speaker 3>to when it when it just comes to number one,

607
00:28:14.359 --> 00:28:16.880
<v Speaker 3>and when it comes to PN, I'll I feel like

608
00:28:16.920 --> 00:28:17.359
<v Speaker 3>I could just.

609
00:28:17.319 --> 00:28:17.880
<v Speaker 5>Do that anyway.

610
00:28:17.920 --> 00:28:19.279
<v Speaker 4>We couldn't be more opposite.

611
00:28:19.400 --> 00:28:20.119
<v Speaker 5>It's odd.

612
00:28:20.200 --> 00:28:22.400
<v Speaker 4>Huh, Well, it's a it's a gift you have.

613
00:28:22.559 --> 00:28:25.319
<v Speaker 6>I feel like it's a gift or a curse. No,

614
00:28:25.359 --> 00:28:27.680
<v Speaker 6>it's a gat or I have some bad intestines. I

615
00:28:27.720 --> 00:28:30.880
<v Speaker 6>mean good, they're good in testines. Again, like you are.

616
00:28:31.359 --> 00:28:32.960
<v Speaker 6>I mean again, everybody's different, but.

617
00:28:32.920 --> 00:28:35.440
<v Speaker 2>I feel like you you are a very blessed individual

618
00:28:35.519 --> 00:28:37.319
<v Speaker 2>to be able to just simply like at all times,

619
00:28:37.359 --> 00:28:39.359
<v Speaker 2>just be able to like, yeah, if I gotta wait

620
00:28:39.440 --> 00:28:42.240
<v Speaker 2>five hours to go number two, I'll wait five hours. Yeah,

621
00:28:42.279 --> 00:28:45.079
<v Speaker 2>Like shout out to you. Very jealous built different, My

622
00:28:45.160 --> 00:28:47.039
<v Speaker 2>man built different.

623
00:28:47.039 --> 00:28:49.400
<v Speaker 5>Thus producers man or at least me.

624
00:28:49.720 --> 00:28:52.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, God bless you all right, So real quick,

625
00:28:52.279 --> 00:28:53.519
<v Speaker 2>this is a text that came in on the element

626
00:28:53.519 --> 00:28:55.640
<v Speaker 2>in Federal Credit Union text line five two six five

627
00:28:55.759 --> 00:28:58.039
<v Speaker 2>three zero seven ninety is the number you want to

628
00:28:58.079 --> 00:28:58.400
<v Speaker 2>text in?

629
00:28:58.480 --> 00:28:59.680
<v Speaker 5>This is a good text, says Nick.

630
00:29:00.400 --> 00:29:02.759
<v Speaker 2>If Louisville ends up as a six or a seven

631
00:29:02.960 --> 00:29:04.319
<v Speaker 2>and would play the two or the three in the

632
00:29:04.319 --> 00:29:07.240
<v Speaker 2>next round, who would you most like to avoid on

633
00:29:07.279 --> 00:29:10.519
<v Speaker 2>the two and three line? So I just pulled up

634
00:29:10.559 --> 00:29:13.519
<v Speaker 2>the most recent bracketology that I that I can find here,

635
00:29:13.559 --> 00:29:17.599
<v Speaker 2>So like, Louisville right now is a seven and most

636
00:29:17.599 --> 00:29:22.079
<v Speaker 2>of the bracketology that I've seen. I mean, you know, Leonardi,

637
00:29:22.119 --> 00:29:24.319
<v Speaker 2>he hasn't updated anything in a while, has he? I mean,

638
00:29:24.359 --> 00:29:27.359
<v Speaker 2>because usually he doesn't. Ever, when I need a fresh

639
00:29:27.720 --> 00:29:30.440
<v Speaker 2>Joey Brackett's update, I never can get it. Yeah, his

640
00:29:30.519 --> 00:29:35.480
<v Speaker 2>last update was on the twenty eighth of February. So yeah,

641
00:29:35.480 --> 00:29:37.200
<v Speaker 2>he's sleeping on the job. What are they paying this

642
00:29:37.279 --> 00:29:42.240
<v Speaker 2>guy for? So Jerry Palm, he put one out yesterday

643
00:29:42.279 --> 00:29:48.559
<v Speaker 2>and he has Louisville as a seven, and he has

644
00:29:48.599 --> 00:29:51.920
<v Speaker 2>them taking on let's see, he has them taking on

645
00:29:52.119 --> 00:29:54.920
<v Speaker 2>San Diego State. I saw one bracketology that has them

646
00:29:54.960 --> 00:30:02.000
<v Speaker 2>taking on number A ten seeded Georgia team. So if

647
00:30:02.039 --> 00:30:04.279
<v Speaker 2>they end up as a seven and they get passed,

648
00:30:04.319 --> 00:30:06.279
<v Speaker 2>because let's look at the ten seeds, you got San

649
00:30:06.279 --> 00:30:10.559
<v Speaker 2>Diego State, West Virginia, Georgia, and Indiana. So that's the

650
00:30:10.599 --> 00:30:12.599
<v Speaker 2>caliber of team that you play in the first round

651
00:30:12.680 --> 00:30:15.319
<v Speaker 2>if that's the seed you end up with. And again

652
00:30:15.519 --> 00:30:19.319
<v Speaker 2>I don't I think that's that's not even really like bracketology.

653
00:30:19.400 --> 00:30:21.559
<v Speaker 2>I feel like, I mean, I guess it is. But

654
00:30:21.599 --> 00:30:23.839
<v Speaker 2>my point is that's the easy thing to predict, like

655
00:30:23.880 --> 00:30:25.880
<v Speaker 2>the range of teams that are that are that are

656
00:30:25.920 --> 00:30:27.960
<v Speaker 2>on the six to seven or the ten to nine,

657
00:30:28.000 --> 00:30:28.880
<v Speaker 2>all that kind of stuff.

658
00:30:29.240 --> 00:30:31.160
<v Speaker 4>So again I stand by what I said earlier.

659
00:30:31.200 --> 00:30:35.839
<v Speaker 2>I believe that Indiana, Georgia, West Virginia, San Diego State,

660
00:30:36.799 --> 00:30:38.599
<v Speaker 2>those kind of teams that could potentially be your opponent.

661
00:30:38.640 --> 00:30:42.160
<v Speaker 2>I believe they are more talented than nearly every team

662
00:30:42.160 --> 00:30:44.720
<v Speaker 2>you've played since January. Doesn't mean you can't beat them,

663
00:30:44.720 --> 00:30:46.480
<v Speaker 2>doesn't mean you won't be favored. I don't know, but

664
00:30:46.519 --> 00:30:48.839
<v Speaker 2>I just think that's something that is unusual about being

665
00:30:49.319 --> 00:30:51.880
<v Speaker 2>a twenty plus win team that's safely in the tournament

666
00:30:51.920 --> 00:30:53.920
<v Speaker 2>to know that even if you get a sixth seed,

667
00:30:53.960 --> 00:30:56.039
<v Speaker 2>maybe there's a good chance whoever you play in the

668
00:30:56.039 --> 00:30:58.160
<v Speaker 2>first round is going to be better than anybody you've

669
00:30:58.160 --> 00:31:01.559
<v Speaker 2>played other than one team in like months. Now. Again,

670
00:31:01.599 --> 00:31:03.799
<v Speaker 2>if you get Duke, that'll be probably not a I mean,

671
00:31:04.079 --> 00:31:06.920
<v Speaker 2>they're they're really good, but at least you'd be able

672
00:31:06.960 --> 00:31:09.319
<v Speaker 2>to say you played a you know, a juggernaut before

673
00:31:09.359 --> 00:31:12.640
<v Speaker 2>you got to the Big Dance. So anyways, if Louisville

674
00:31:13.400 --> 00:31:16.079
<v Speaker 2>was to win that first round game, and if they're

675
00:31:16.119 --> 00:31:19.759
<v Speaker 2>a seven seed, then obviously they would play they play

676
00:31:19.759 --> 00:31:23.039
<v Speaker 2>it two if the two wins. So we're talking about Florida, Wisconsin,

677
00:31:23.640 --> 00:31:28.799
<v Speaker 2>Michigan State, Alabama. I mean, I don't really want to

678
00:31:28.799 --> 00:31:30.759
<v Speaker 2>play any of those teams because I think they're really good.

679
00:31:30.799 --> 00:31:33.519
<v Speaker 2>But if I had to pick between those teams, and

680
00:31:33.559 --> 00:31:38.880
<v Speaker 2>I've watched all those teams enough, I'd probably, honestly probably

681
00:31:38.920 --> 00:31:41.359
<v Speaker 2>take Florida. Like I think they're good, They're all look,

682
00:31:41.359 --> 00:31:42.880
<v Speaker 2>all those teams are good. They'd be favored, and louis

683
00:31:42.920 --> 00:31:44.519
<v Speaker 2>would have a tough time beating any of those teams

684
00:31:44.559 --> 00:31:47.200
<v Speaker 2>because again, they're really good. But I just think I

685
00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:51.279
<v Speaker 2>don't know Wisconsin's probably as far as talent level one

686
00:31:51.319 --> 00:31:52.359
<v Speaker 2>that you wouldn't be that.

687
00:31:52.599 --> 00:31:53.359
<v Speaker 5>Like fearful of.

688
00:31:53.480 --> 00:31:57.160
<v Speaker 2>However, they've put together a really good season and there's

689
00:31:57.440 --> 00:32:01.559
<v Speaker 2>certainly a storyline there Chucky going up against his former team, So.

690
00:32:02.480 --> 00:32:03.720
<v Speaker 4>That's who I would pick.

691
00:32:03.759 --> 00:32:05.279
<v Speaker 2>No, we also have a text that comes in and says,

692
00:32:05.279 --> 00:32:08.200
<v Speaker 2>how can Louisville be a six or seven seed when

693
00:32:08.200 --> 00:32:09.799
<v Speaker 2>they're in the top fifteen in both poles?

694
00:32:10.440 --> 00:32:15.079
<v Speaker 5>I say this with respect, that does not matter at all.

695
00:32:15.640 --> 00:32:17.559
<v Speaker 2>Louisville being top fifteen in the AP pole and the

696
00:32:17.559 --> 00:32:20.359
<v Speaker 2>Coaches Poll. I love it because I think it speaks

697
00:32:20.359 --> 00:32:21.759
<v Speaker 2>to just how it's just another reminder.

698
00:32:21.839 --> 00:32:22.480
<v Speaker 5>Can you believe this?

699
00:32:22.559 --> 00:32:26.279
<v Speaker 2>Louisville goes from being the joke of college basketball for

700
00:32:26.279 --> 00:32:28.119
<v Speaker 2>two years to being in the top fifteen and the

701
00:32:28.160 --> 00:32:28.640
<v Speaker 2>AP pole.

702
00:32:28.680 --> 00:32:29.160
<v Speaker 5>Hell yeah.

703
00:32:29.319 --> 00:32:31.039
<v Speaker 2>But the AP Poll doesn't matter at all when it

704
00:32:31.039 --> 00:32:35.039
<v Speaker 2>comes to seeding, And I think, like Louisville right now,

705
00:32:36.000 --> 00:32:38.559
<v Speaker 2>I think when you look at the seed listing out

706
00:32:38.599 --> 00:32:41.240
<v Speaker 2>there from the bracketologists that that we keep up with

707
00:32:41.279 --> 00:32:43.799
<v Speaker 2>to an extent, like Lenardi and Jerry Palm and those guys,

708
00:32:44.079 --> 00:32:47.720
<v Speaker 2>to see Louisville on the you know, around like twenty

709
00:32:48.720 --> 00:32:51.119
<v Speaker 2>between twenty three and twenty five, which is where they

710
00:32:51.119 --> 00:32:52.519
<v Speaker 2>are in the net and the kin palm. Like, I

711
00:32:52.519 --> 00:32:54.880
<v Speaker 2>think that's accurate. I think it's fair. I think they

712
00:32:54.880 --> 00:32:56.920
<v Speaker 2>could be better than that. But I just think resume wise,

713
00:32:57.000 --> 00:32:59.240
<v Speaker 2>that makes sense, that checks out, and that is more.

714
00:32:59.480 --> 00:33:02.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean again, some of it is dependent upon you know,

715
00:33:02.559 --> 00:33:04.759
<v Speaker 2>using your brain right, because you can't just use the

716
00:33:04.799 --> 00:33:06.920
<v Speaker 2>net as the end all be all, and they don't

717
00:33:06.960 --> 00:33:10.319
<v Speaker 2>do it that way. But I think right now Louisville,

718
00:33:10.839 --> 00:33:14.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean, as it stands today, six and seven is

719
00:33:14.119 --> 00:33:15.720
<v Speaker 2>super accurate as far as where you're gonna be.

720
00:33:15.799 --> 00:33:19.680
<v Speaker 5>Doesn't mean that I think that they're not worthy.

721
00:33:19.720 --> 00:33:21.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I look, could they be a team as

722
00:33:21.920 --> 00:33:24.279
<v Speaker 2>far as like talent wise, be as far as like

723
00:33:24.480 --> 00:33:27.000
<v Speaker 2>be like being good enough to be better than that seed? Yeah,

724
00:33:27.039 --> 00:33:30.880
<v Speaker 2>but like your resume matters, and Louis's resume is in

725
00:33:30.920 --> 00:33:35.559
<v Speaker 2>a solid spot. But again, I hate doing this because

726
00:33:35.559 --> 00:33:37.680
<v Speaker 2>it sounds like I'm telling people that Louisville's not as

727
00:33:37.720 --> 00:33:39.200
<v Speaker 2>good as they think they are, and that's not at

728
00:33:39.200 --> 00:33:41.599
<v Speaker 2>all what I'm trying to do. But the resume matters

729
00:33:41.599 --> 00:33:45.359
<v Speaker 2>in Louisville. Unfortunately, the ACC just didn't give the league

730
00:33:45.359 --> 00:33:48.279
<v Speaker 2>many opportunities to do anything to really boost its resume,

731
00:33:48.400 --> 00:33:51.079
<v Speaker 2>Like from January on, I mean Louisville went. I mean

732
00:33:51.119 --> 00:33:55.240
<v Speaker 2>Louisville had one win that really helped them, and that's Clemson.

733
00:33:55.319 --> 00:33:56.920
<v Speaker 2>Because that win was big at the time, and it's

734
00:33:56.960 --> 00:33:59.000
<v Speaker 2>gotten even more valuable since you got it.

735
00:34:01.000 --> 00:34:03.039
<v Speaker 4>So I again, we talked about it last week.

736
00:34:03.079 --> 00:34:03.759
<v Speaker 5>Nothing's changed.

737
00:34:04.079 --> 00:34:06.359
<v Speaker 2>I think this like Louisville right now, six and seven

738
00:34:06.400 --> 00:34:09.159
<v Speaker 2>is where you are. I think if you win these

739
00:34:09.199 --> 00:34:11.880
<v Speaker 2>two games this week, you stay six and seven range.

740
00:34:12.360 --> 00:34:14.199
<v Speaker 2>And I think if you end up in the ACC

741
00:34:14.360 --> 00:34:18.360
<v Speaker 2>Tournament beating Clemson again, then maybe you bump up to

742
00:34:18.559 --> 00:34:21.559
<v Speaker 2>like five six instead of six to seven, and then

743
00:34:21.599 --> 00:34:23.519
<v Speaker 2>you really have like a house money against Duke to

744
00:34:23.519 --> 00:34:25.599
<v Speaker 2>where if you just you know, it probably won't do

745
00:34:25.679 --> 00:34:26.519
<v Speaker 2>much to change your seed.

746
00:34:26.519 --> 00:34:27.440
<v Speaker 5>No matter what happens.

747
00:34:28.239 --> 00:34:31.159
<v Speaker 2>Now, if you end up winning this week beating Georgia

748
00:34:31.239 --> 00:34:33.639
<v Speaker 2>Tech and then losing to Clemson, I still think you're

749
00:34:33.719 --> 00:34:36.559
<v Speaker 2>probably looking at six seven more so likely going to

750
00:34:36.639 --> 00:34:38.880
<v Speaker 2>be a seven. So there's really not a whole lot

751
00:34:38.880 --> 00:34:41.320
<v Speaker 2>of range here from now until Like you used to

752
00:34:41.320 --> 00:34:43.639
<v Speaker 2>look at the Big East Tournament or the ACC Tournament

753
00:34:43.760 --> 00:34:46.719
<v Speaker 2>in a previous world and say, wow, I really like

754
00:34:46.760 --> 00:34:49.000
<v Speaker 2>where we are. But man, if they get to like

755
00:34:49.039 --> 00:34:51.920
<v Speaker 2>the semis or the finals of the conference tournament, you're

756
00:34:51.960 --> 00:34:56.400
<v Speaker 2>talking about three big valuable wins' that's not where we

757
00:34:56.440 --> 00:34:56.840
<v Speaker 2>are now.

758
00:34:58.199 --> 00:35:00.400
<v Speaker 5>So think.

759
00:35:04.559 --> 00:35:07.519
<v Speaker 2>They went out and beat Duke. I still think like

760
00:35:07.559 --> 00:35:10.039
<v Speaker 2>this the highest they could get as a four. I

761
00:35:10.119 --> 00:35:14.159
<v Speaker 2>really do, and that'd be great. But I'm just happy

762
00:35:14.159 --> 00:35:15.519
<v Speaker 2>that that we're not even like war.

763
00:35:15.679 --> 00:35:16.760
<v Speaker 5>We're not worried about the bubble.

764
00:35:16.880 --> 00:35:20.000
<v Speaker 2>That's a good place to be and comparatively speaking, all right,

765
00:35:20.079 --> 00:35:21.519
<v Speaker 2>quick break, we'll come back on the other side. Wrap

766
00:35:21.519 --> 00:35:23.360
<v Speaker 2>this thing up right here on Sports Talk seven ninety.

767
00:35:23.639 --> 00:35:27.480
<v Speaker 1>Now back to coffee and company, fueled by Thornton's on

768
00:35:27.639 --> 00:35:31.039
<v Speaker 1>Sports Talk seven nine day.

769
00:35:33.559 --> 00:35:37.679
<v Speaker 2>So today is Louisville's first day of spring football practice,

770
00:35:37.760 --> 00:35:39.840
<v Speaker 2>So probably not going to be a whole lot to

771
00:35:39.880 --> 00:35:44.199
<v Speaker 2>take from today's practice, but I imagine we'll hear from Jeff

772
00:35:44.199 --> 00:35:47.119
<v Speaker 2>Brohm or one of the coaches. But it is exciting

773
00:35:47.320 --> 00:35:49.559
<v Speaker 2>to know that you're heading into year three with Jeff Brohm,

774
00:35:49.679 --> 00:35:53.960
<v Speaker 2>and I wouldn't be shocked if this team is once

775
00:35:54.000 --> 00:35:57.280
<v Speaker 2>again in position to potentially find themselves competing for the

776
00:35:57.320 --> 00:36:03.639
<v Speaker 2>ACC I means, I mean, he he enters his He's

777
00:36:03.840 --> 00:36:07.360
<v Speaker 2>he's entering his I guess how many is he a senior?

778
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:07.760
<v Speaker 5>I don't know how.

779
00:36:07.920 --> 00:36:10.239
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how great anybody's in college sports anymore.

780
00:36:10.280 --> 00:36:12.000
<v Speaker 2>But you know he's coming with a little bit more

781
00:36:12.079 --> 00:36:15.199
<v Speaker 2>hype and honestly a little bit more, a little bit

782
00:36:15.199 --> 00:36:19.239
<v Speaker 2>more I guess fanfare than Tyler Shuck was. So I

783
00:36:19.320 --> 00:36:20.840
<v Speaker 2>just think, you know, we've talked about this a lot.

784
00:36:20.840 --> 00:36:24.119
<v Speaker 2>I think Jeff Will will continue to do this. Right,

785
00:36:24.280 --> 00:36:26.800
<v Speaker 2>find a guy each year they can come in and

786
00:36:26.800 --> 00:36:28.960
<v Speaker 2>and uh, you know, do what he needs at the

787
00:36:29.000 --> 00:36:32.880
<v Speaker 2>quarterback position. And with Tyler Shuck, certainly he was not

788
00:36:33.000 --> 00:36:35.079
<v Speaker 2>somebody that a lot of other big schools were in on,

789
00:36:35.199 --> 00:36:38.320
<v Speaker 2>and Louisville got him probably pretty cheap, but man, he

790
00:36:38.400 --> 00:36:40.360
<v Speaker 2>certainly put himself out there as a guy that can

791
00:36:40.400 --> 00:36:42.840
<v Speaker 2>play in the NFL and did a great job at

792
00:36:42.840 --> 00:36:45.199
<v Speaker 2>the combine too. All right, let's talk with the little

793
00:36:45.159 --> 00:36:46.679
<v Speaker 2>of Men's Clinic once again? Shall we a little of

794
00:36:46.760 --> 00:36:49.400
<v Speaker 2>Men's Clinic. They've been around for over a decade now,

795
00:36:49.679 --> 00:36:52.639
<v Speaker 2>helping folks with a lot of things. When I say folks,

796
00:36:52.639 --> 00:36:54.440
<v Speaker 2>it's not just men. Obviously they do help men. But

797
00:36:54.480 --> 00:36:58.039
<v Speaker 2>if you are a man that is suffering from rec tautysfunction.

798
00:36:58.360 --> 00:37:01.400
<v Speaker 2>Your partner's also suffering as well well, and that's not ideal,

799
00:37:01.400 --> 00:37:01.960
<v Speaker 2>but hey, it's life.

800
00:37:02.000 --> 00:37:02.480
<v Speaker 5>It happens.

801
00:37:02.840 --> 00:37:04.960
<v Speaker 2>So the quicker you address it and pick up the

802
00:37:04.960 --> 00:37:06.840
<v Speaker 2>phone and call my friends at the Lois Of Men's Clinic.

803
00:37:07.079 --> 00:37:10.760
<v Speaker 2>The quicker, they can figure out which treatment option makes

804
00:37:10.760 --> 00:37:12.400
<v Speaker 2>the most sense for you. They've got a variety of

805
00:37:12.400 --> 00:37:15.760
<v Speaker 2>ways to treat a rectalletis function, and again, I'm sure

806
00:37:15.760 --> 00:37:17.400
<v Speaker 2>it's not a comfortable thing, but they're used to that.

807
00:37:17.400 --> 00:37:17.679
<v Speaker 5>They know.

808
00:37:18.159 --> 00:37:19.880
<v Speaker 4>They're well aware that if you're reaching out to them

809
00:37:19.920 --> 00:37:20.880
<v Speaker 4>to talk about.

810
00:37:20.760 --> 00:37:23.960
<v Speaker 2>ED, they're aware that it's probably something you're uncomfortable about

811
00:37:24.000 --> 00:37:25.800
<v Speaker 2>and something you probably have been putting off because you

812
00:37:25.800 --> 00:37:28.960
<v Speaker 2>know it's awkward. But they know that and they're well

813
00:37:29.000 --> 00:37:32.000
<v Speaker 2>prepared to be able to address it and make sure

814
00:37:32.039 --> 00:37:34.400
<v Speaker 2>you know. I would imagine that if you go see

815
00:37:34.400 --> 00:37:36.679
<v Speaker 2>them about a rectal dus function, or maybe it's low testosterol,

816
00:37:36.679 --> 00:37:39.840
<v Speaker 2>maybe it's joint pain, maybe weight loss therapy, you'll see

817
00:37:40.000 --> 00:37:41.519
<v Speaker 2>when it comes to how they treat you that it's

818
00:37:41.519 --> 00:37:43.159
<v Speaker 2>something you should have done long ago. So I can't

819
00:37:43.159 --> 00:37:45.000
<v Speaker 2>recommend them enough. Again, it's the Lois of Men's Clinic.

820
00:37:45.280 --> 00:37:47.599
<v Speaker 2>Check them out online at Louisvillemen's Clinic dot com. You

821
00:37:47.719 --> 00:37:48.840
<v Speaker 2>give them a call five oh.

822
00:37:48.800 --> 00:37:52.039
<v Speaker 4>Two four four four four thousand.

823
00:37:53.000 --> 00:37:55.760
<v Speaker 2>All right, So I may lead with this on the

824
00:37:55.800 --> 00:37:58.880
<v Speaker 2>show tomorrow, or I may forget about it altogether. I

825
00:37:58.920 --> 00:38:01.440
<v Speaker 2>probably need to forget about it because I'm getting a

826
00:38:01.440 --> 00:38:05.000
<v Speaker 2>little work. I'm not gonna be all right if Johnson

827
00:38:05.119 --> 00:38:07.199
<v Speaker 2>wins a CEC Coach of the Year over Pat Kelsey.

828
00:38:07.440 --> 00:38:09.800
<v Speaker 2>I just want you to know that often i'd be

829
00:38:09.840 --> 00:38:13.239
<v Speaker 2>pretty I'm not gonna be well devious work. Yeah, I'm

830
00:38:13.239 --> 00:38:14.960
<v Speaker 2>not gonna stand for it's what it is. What I mean,

831
00:38:15.079 --> 00:38:16.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you stand for a lot of things. I'm

832
00:38:16.880 --> 00:38:18.400
<v Speaker 2>not gonna stand for it. I'm not gonna allow it

833
00:38:18.400 --> 00:38:22.400
<v Speaker 2>to happen. I'll uh, I'll show up wherever they give

834
00:38:22.400 --> 00:38:24.599
<v Speaker 2>that award out if they even do, I think I don't.

835
00:38:24.599 --> 00:38:26.320
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I think they just put it out there

836
00:38:26.320 --> 00:38:27.400
<v Speaker 4>and you just get to say you are it.

837
00:38:27.440 --> 00:38:28.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if you get a trophy or whatever

838
00:38:28.840 --> 00:38:31.079
<v Speaker 2>it is, but if there's any kind of an award,

839
00:38:31.400 --> 00:38:33.800
<v Speaker 2>there's any kind of an award given, I'll be there

840
00:38:33.840 --> 00:38:35.800
<v Speaker 2>to make sure it doesn't get it, it doesn't get

841
00:38:35.800 --> 00:38:37.639
<v Speaker 2>in the hands of John Shire, and I'll hand it

842
00:38:37.679 --> 00:38:38.880
<v Speaker 2>personally to Pat Kelsey.

843
00:38:39.199 --> 00:38:42.679
<v Speaker 5>Think, think Happy Gilmore, that big tall guy chasing Shooter McGavin.

844
00:38:42.719 --> 00:38:45.800
<v Speaker 2>That's gonna be me chasing after John Shire over my

845
00:38:45.920 --> 00:38:48.199
<v Speaker 2>dead body. You're gonna be ACC coach of the Year,

846
00:38:48.239 --> 00:38:51.440
<v Speaker 2>not my CC coach of the year. That's Pat Kelsey.

847
00:38:51.880 --> 00:38:53.360
<v Speaker 2>All right, I'm sorry I got worked up. We're out

848
00:38:53.360 --> 00:38:55.320
<v Speaker 2>of time. You guys, enjoy your evening. We're back at

849
00:38:55.320 --> 00:39:01.639
<v Speaker 2>it tomorrow right here on Sports Talk seven ninety
