<v Speaker 2>how are you doing well?

9
00:00:27.839 --> 00:00:28.399
<v Speaker 3>Doing okay?

10
00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:32.039
<v Speaker 2>How are you okay? Okay? Would you rather be inside

11
00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:33.640
<v Speaker 2>than outside where it's going to start get hot?

12
00:00:33.679 --> 00:00:33.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

13
00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:35.600
<v Speaker 4>What was it like ninety five when I walked in?

14
00:00:35.679 --> 00:00:37.560
<v Speaker 4>So it feels good to be in a little air conditioning?

15
00:00:37.679 --> 00:00:38.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, a little windy too.

16
00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:39.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

17
00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:43.359
<v Speaker 2>You collergic to damn yellow? I think I might be.

18
00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:45.439
<v Speaker 4>You know, I usually start to feel at this time

19
00:00:45.479 --> 00:00:48.600
<v Speaker 4>of year, usually when the temperature gets really super hot.

20
00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:50.600
<v Speaker 4>That's kind of when I start to get sick. Oh, dude,

21
00:00:50.600 --> 00:00:52.399
<v Speaker 4>when it kind of goes from coolist to hot. So

22
00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:54.039
<v Speaker 4>we'll see if I can get through these next couple

23
00:00:54.079 --> 00:00:54.479
<v Speaker 4>of months.

24
00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:56.119
<v Speaker 2>Well, you have a suit of fit, give it to

25
00:00:56.119 --> 00:00:58.079
<v Speaker 2>me so I can fall asleep during the show. Okay,

26
00:00:58.359 --> 00:01:01.439
<v Speaker 2>it might be for a better show. Hey, a lot

27
00:01:01.479 --> 00:01:03.719
<v Speaker 2>of things going on. Obviously. Let's say today we're gonna

28
00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:07.239
<v Speaker 2>talk about soccer FC Tucson on John Perlman. We'll ask

29
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:08.719
<v Speaker 2>him what the hell is he up to and what's

30
00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:10.480
<v Speaker 2>he doing now with the titles that he has. I'm

31
00:01:10.519 --> 00:01:12.000
<v Speaker 2>not sure I thought he was the president of the

32
00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:15.359
<v Speaker 2>of the team. He might be doing other things now. Yeah.

33
00:01:15.200 --> 00:01:15.280
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

34
00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:17.560
<v Speaker 2>And then at the four seventeen hour, we didn't put

35
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:19.599
<v Speaker 2>it on social because we didn't have it at the time.

36
00:01:20.120 --> 00:01:22.280
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna have hal you and Morales talking about a

37
00:01:22.400 --> 00:01:25.599
<v Speaker 2>variety of things high school sports as we running down

38
00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:28.760
<v Speaker 2>the season with just about a few weeks left.

39
00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:30.719
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, all a playoff should be starting here pretty soon,

40
00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:32.000
<v Speaker 4>I guess mhm.

41
00:01:32.480 --> 00:01:35.400
<v Speaker 2>And I'm sure Kobe will have some breaking news. We

42
00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:37.400
<v Speaker 2>might impede on that breaking news if we run out

43
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:40.920
<v Speaker 2>of things to talk about. But someone asked me yesterday

44
00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:44.760
<v Speaker 2>or the day before, because all these guys are coming back, right,

45
00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:49.959
<v Speaker 2>Jade and Bradley awaka Crevous and there was one more

46
00:01:50.280 --> 00:01:53.319
<v Speaker 2>still so so they're signing, they're sending these things out right,

47
00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:56.200
<v Speaker 2>they're signed, they're signed.

48
00:01:56.400 --> 00:01:58.599
<v Speaker 3>Has re signed everything everything that we're seeing.

49
00:01:59.400 --> 00:02:02.799
<v Speaker 2>What social, what do you think I'm guessing there must

50
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:05.040
<v Speaker 2>be some nil involved there.

51
00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:08.199
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, but I've never never heard that before.

52
00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:10.719
<v Speaker 4>Usually it was just they're coming back, or you know,

53
00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:13.240
<v Speaker 4>they're they're not going pro or they're whatever.

54
00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:15.360
<v Speaker 3>It's been framed.

55
00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:18.439
<v Speaker 2>Right. So, like I said yesterday on Facebook, Saise, I'll

56
00:02:18.479 --> 00:02:21.439
<v Speaker 2>be back tomorrow if God allows me to. Did you

57
00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:24.319
<v Speaker 2>resigned to come back tomorrow? I didn't sign anything hothfully,

58
00:02:24.319 --> 00:02:25.680
<v Speaker 2>you know what he asked me to. I'm afraid to

59
00:02:25.680 --> 00:02:28.319
<v Speaker 2>sign stuff now, so I asked, I asked the powers

60
00:02:28.319 --> 00:02:31.599
<v Speaker 2>that be at UA, what does that all mean? So

61
00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:34.520
<v Speaker 2>here's the response. Just now, I mean, within the last

62
00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:38.439
<v Speaker 2>six seven minutes, they are signing agreements related to revenue

63
00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:43.599
<v Speaker 2>sharing in parentheses with the contingency that the House resettlement

64
00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:49.000
<v Speaker 2>is approved, and implement WOW or financial aid agreements for

65
00:02:49.199 --> 00:02:52.400
<v Speaker 2>the upcoming year related to their scholarships. So it's one

66
00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:52.840
<v Speaker 2>or the other.

67
00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:57.400
<v Speaker 4>Because the scholarships, if I'm not mistaken, they're year to year, right,

68
00:02:57.639 --> 00:02:59.800
<v Speaker 4>you know, so everybody thinks, oh, they're going to get

69
00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:02.080
<v Speaker 4>a full ride, but it's basically I'm pretty sure it's

70
00:03:02.120 --> 00:03:03.919
<v Speaker 4>just year to year. The way it's worked out, especially

71
00:03:03.919 --> 00:03:06.120
<v Speaker 4>in athletics, that's how it wasn't the good old days, right?

72
00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:07.800
<v Speaker 2>Who knows these are not good?

73
00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:09.479
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if it's insane, but it used to

74
00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:10.280
<v Speaker 3>be that way, right.

75
00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:12.599
<v Speaker 4>But yeah, when it comes to that house settlement too,

76
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:16.000
<v Speaker 4>I'm sure you know, they probably have a figure that

77
00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:17.879
<v Speaker 4>they're looking at that they know they're going to get

78
00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:20.080
<v Speaker 4>and they sign it.

79
00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:23.039
<v Speaker 2>Sure, sure, and they're complaining that in addition to the

80
00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:25.400
<v Speaker 2>NIL without him mentioning the n L.

81
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:25.680
<v Speaker 5>Right.

82
00:03:26.599 --> 00:03:29.479
<v Speaker 2>So, and that's the key, because I'm sure the guys

83
00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:32.759
<v Speaker 2>that are coming back aren't coming back for free, right

84
00:03:33.240 --> 00:03:36.599
<v Speaker 2>or for a little pitton A lot of and.

85
00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:38.719
<v Speaker 4>The guys that they're going to try to get or

86
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:43.800
<v Speaker 4>you know, to transfer, even even the Harvard kid from

87
00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:46.039
<v Speaker 4>South Point, he probably he's getting something to come in here,

88
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:47.840
<v Speaker 4>and maybe he wasn't even getting anything at Harvard.

89
00:03:47.919 --> 00:03:51.560
<v Speaker 2>Who knows, right, I don't, Yeah, probably not, don't.

90
00:03:51.680 --> 00:03:54.159
<v Speaker 4>They don't have athletics scholarships right in the IVY League.

91
00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:57.759
<v Speaker 2>They're not going to have anything there now at Harvard

92
00:03:58.360 --> 00:04:02.280
<v Speaker 2>given the still be okay, no, but but the political yeah,

93
00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:04.960
<v Speaker 2>I think they'll be okay, Okay, that's what that's their

94
00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:05.960
<v Speaker 2>present fifty.

95
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:07.080
<v Speaker 3>Six billion dollar endownment.

96
00:04:07.400 --> 00:04:08.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh that's true.

97
00:04:08.039 --> 00:04:09.800
<v Speaker 3>Arizona's is like barely one.

98
00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:14.719
<v Speaker 2>Okay, man, we live in a weird time. Yes, but

99
00:04:14.759 --> 00:04:17.920
<v Speaker 2>that's for another day on another show. Uh So, anybody

100

<v Speaker 2>want to call, please do five two o four one, six,

102
00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:25.839

103
00:04:25.920 --> 00:04:28.519
<v Speaker 2>let for we'll let Kobe break the news. But the

104
00:04:28.600 --> 00:04:32.240
<v Speaker 2>women's team did get a player today or recently, yep,

105
00:04:32.279 --> 00:04:34.600
<v Speaker 2>from somewhere, So that's good. You could tell that she's already,

106
00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:37.639
<v Speaker 2>as they say, on the ground running a couple of

107
00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:39.639
<v Speaker 2>days after her press convererence. What did you think of that?

108
00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:40.279
<v Speaker 2>Did you watch it?

109
00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:43.839
<v Speaker 3>I did watch it. You know, she was she was impressive.

110
00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:47.560
<v Speaker 4>She was she's polished, she's got a strong message, she's

111
00:04:47.560 --> 00:04:51.120
<v Speaker 4>got a good personality. She kind of, you know, didn't

112
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:53.399
<v Speaker 4>shy away from saying that she got a lot of

113
00:04:53.399 --> 00:04:56.079
<v Speaker 4>work to do. It's basically starting from scratch, and you know,

114
00:04:56.199 --> 00:04:57.920
<v Speaker 4>she kind of like turned everyone to listen. I got

115
00:04:57.959 --> 00:04:59.560
<v Speaker 4>a good move and I gotta I gotta get out

116
00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:01.600
<v Speaker 4>and go. I know she showed up at one of

117
00:05:01.600 --> 00:05:03.879
<v Speaker 4>the baseball games over the weekend, so she maybe didn't

118
00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:06.879
<v Speaker 4>go immediately. But I'm sure you know she's already already

119
00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:09.399
<v Speaker 4>making phone calls and zooms and however these things are

120
00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:09.839
<v Speaker 4>worked out.

121
00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:12.480
<v Speaker 3>You know, she probably has a lot of people calling her.

122
00:05:12.600 --> 00:05:14.759
<v Speaker 2>So let me ask you in the business that you

123
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:18.240
<v Speaker 2>were in forever? Uh, in the media business? Have you in?

124
00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:19.920
<v Speaker 2>This might be just a question that you would not

125
00:05:20.040 --> 00:05:21.399
<v Speaker 2>have to know at the top of your head. So

126
00:05:21.439 --> 00:05:23.160
<v Speaker 2>have you ever seen one of these press conferences where

127
00:05:23.160 --> 00:05:25.680
<v Speaker 2>it just failed, you know, because you always get a

128
00:05:25.720 --> 00:05:28.120
<v Speaker 2>new person. Oh, they were pretty impressive. Oh they won

129
00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:31.720
<v Speaker 2>the news conference exactly, That's exactly. I don't think I

130
00:05:31.720 --> 00:05:33.480
<v Speaker 2>can ever remember one. I'll tell you one that just

131
00:05:33.560 --> 00:05:36.399
<v Speaker 2>came to my one. Well, were you at summons? Did

132
00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:37.120
<v Speaker 2>you see someonings?

133
00:05:37.199 --> 00:05:37.879
<v Speaker 3>I was not there.

134
00:05:37.920 --> 00:05:40.839
<v Speaker 2>He was okay, he he was okay. I couldn't tell

135
00:05:40.839 --> 00:05:42.399
<v Speaker 2>he didn't want to be here, but he was going

136
00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:44.279
<v Speaker 2>to cast a check or whatever. That was kind of

137
00:05:44.319 --> 00:05:46.600
<v Speaker 2>the prettylude to what happened to him. But I'm gonna

138
00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:51.399
<v Speaker 2>say herm harn herm, herm a issue, HERM Edwards, HERM Edwards. Yeah,

139
00:05:51.439 --> 00:05:53.920
<v Speaker 2>because he took some questions that were kind of strange,

140
00:05:54.040 --> 00:05:56.439
<v Speaker 2>just very strange, and you know, the devil's digestics, is

141
00:05:56.680 --> 00:05:58.439
<v Speaker 2>you believe in the devil? You know? It was kind

142
00:05:58.439 --> 00:06:01.279
<v Speaker 2>of very odd. Yeah, but it was just odd to me.

143
00:06:01.319 --> 00:06:03.040
<v Speaker 2>Maybe he won the press commerce, but it was kind

144
00:06:03.079 --> 00:06:05.240
<v Speaker 2>of what what are you from? I don't know.

145
00:06:05.279 --> 00:06:09.000
<v Speaker 3>And the way that thing ended too, I don't know.

146
00:06:09.160 --> 00:06:13.560
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. Usually, you know, usually the coaches earlier,

147
00:06:13.600 --> 00:06:14.720
<v Speaker 3>polished and sure.

148
00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:16.000
<v Speaker 4>Know how to answer these questions, kind of know what

149
00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:18.959
<v Speaker 4>to expect, and sure, you know, there usually isn't any

150
00:06:19.040 --> 00:06:21.439
<v Speaker 4>you know, real, you know, out of the world type

151
00:06:21.519 --> 00:06:23.439
<v Speaker 4>question that they're going to get thrown at them anyway.

152
00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:26.560
<v Speaker 2>Sure, it's mostly softball questions blah blah blah. So uh,

153
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:32.279
<v Speaker 2>I think my point is, uh, when you when people

154
00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:35.439
<v Speaker 2>are DEAs leaving, oh man, the world is gonna end,

155
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:37.680
<v Speaker 2>who are you going to get? Yeah, those were always

156
00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:41.240
<v Speaker 2>kind of like not really true, because you're gonna find somebody. Yeah,

157
00:06:41.319 --> 00:06:44.199
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna find when somebody that's very capable of filling

158
00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:46.279
<v Speaker 2>in or fitting in. Yeah, every place.

159
00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:48.160
<v Speaker 4>Well, I mean we were talking I think I was

160
00:06:48.199 --> 00:06:50.160
<v Speaker 4>here exactly a week ago. We had Joan Bavasini. We

161
00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:51.600
<v Speaker 4>were talking to her about that, and I don't I

162
00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:54.079
<v Speaker 4>don't think Becky had been hired yet No, maybe the

163
00:06:54.079 --> 00:06:54.720
<v Speaker 4>next day it was.

164
00:06:54.959 --> 00:06:56.319
<v Speaker 2>It was Wednesday, the two days later.

165
00:06:56.399 --> 00:06:58.800
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, so you know, we were talking about that and

166
00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:03.279
<v Speaker 4>how every athleticor editor, every athletic director has a list

167
00:07:03.319 --> 00:07:06.240
<v Speaker 4>of candidates for just about every job that's out there.

168
00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:08.560
<v Speaker 4>So she probably had this list and yeah, you know,

169
00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:11.199
<v Speaker 4>called her friends and called around and said, should I,

170
00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:13.920
<v Speaker 4>you know, pursue this. And from what I was reading,

171
00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:17.199
<v Speaker 4>there was like some other people involved. Maybe Sam Thomas

172
00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:20.759
<v Speaker 4>might have been involved, some other people involved around the

173
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:21.920
<v Speaker 4>women's program.

174
00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:23.439
<v Speaker 3>In the part of the process.

175
00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:26.800
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, okay, Yeah, there was kind of a collective group

176
00:07:26.839 --> 00:07:29.279
<v Speaker 4>of people who were, you know, instrumental in making the

177
00:07:29.279 --> 00:07:32.120
<v Speaker 4>final call or at least the recommendations. And that she

178
00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:34.000
<v Speaker 4>either went to go see her in person or did

179
00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:36.759
<v Speaker 4>things over zoom. You know, who knows how things go

180
00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:37.319
<v Speaker 4>these days?

181
00:07:37.399 --> 00:07:38.879
<v Speaker 2>Right right? Where did you see that? Where do you

182
00:07:38.879 --> 00:07:39.920
<v Speaker 2>think you see that? Saw that?

183
00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:43.839
<v Speaker 3>I just made it up? No, I'm just it's not somewhere.

184
00:07:43.560 --> 00:07:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Okay, because I didn't read that.

185
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:44.600
<v Speaker 5>It.

186
00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:46.600
<v Speaker 2>I just read a little. I read. I saw the

187
00:07:46.759 --> 00:07:50.399
<v Speaker 2>press conversion as you did. I read Michael Epps's story

188
00:07:50.439 --> 00:07:52.120
<v Speaker 2>on it. I thought that was done well. I would

189
00:07:52.160 --> 00:07:54.120
<v Speaker 2>have written a lot like he did you know how

190
00:07:54.399 --> 00:07:56.800
<v Speaker 2>impressive she was and where she's been and yeah, kind

191
00:07:56.800 --> 00:07:58.759
<v Speaker 2>of where she has to kind of start and do

192
00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:01.839
<v Speaker 2>this thing all over again. But no, I didn't see that,

193
00:08:01.959 --> 00:08:03.800
<v Speaker 2>which you know they're going to have a committee, right

194
00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:05.279
<v Speaker 2>you can ask people what do you think? What do

195
00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:05.560
<v Speaker 2>you think?

196
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:07.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, well, I mean I think I guess the biggest

197
00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:11.360
<v Speaker 4>question just is, you know, she's not really other than

198
00:08:11.439 --> 00:08:14.199
<v Speaker 4>her college as a player at Louisville, you know, really

199
00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:16.680
<v Speaker 4>has not been at this level of basketball or certainly

200
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:18.040
<v Speaker 4>as a head coach or anything like that.

201
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:19.600
<v Speaker 3>So it's going to be an adjustment for her to

202
00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:21.560
<v Speaker 3>see how she can do the way.

203
00:08:21.720 --> 00:08:23.560
<v Speaker 2>Do you do you believe that? I mean, and I

204
00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:26.560
<v Speaker 2>say that because you were in a situation like this,

205
00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:30.639
<v Speaker 2>you know it's there are stages, and I'd like to say,

206
00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:33.200
<v Speaker 2>and this is just an analogy, not anything specific to

207
00:08:33.399 --> 00:08:36.000
<v Speaker 2>women's coaching or my job at your job. So you

208
00:08:36.039 --> 00:08:39.559
<v Speaker 2>do you ever go to the dog track? I did

209
00:08:39.639 --> 00:08:42.639
<v Speaker 2>once a couple of times. A dogs be dogs, he dogs,

210
00:08:42.639 --> 00:08:44.320
<v Speaker 2>and if you see dogs do really well, they get

211
00:08:44.320 --> 00:08:46.519
<v Speaker 2>moved up to the dogs and the vice person. So

212
00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:48.639
<v Speaker 2>when you were at Santa Luis, what'd you come before her?

213
00:08:48.679 --> 00:08:49.279
<v Speaker 3>Silence abs.

214
00:08:49.519 --> 00:08:50.440
<v Speaker 2>Were you ready for this jump?

215
00:08:51.559 --> 00:08:52.679
<v Speaker 3>Probably not really.

216
00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:54.559
<v Speaker 2>Oh you're a bad example. That screw that.

217
00:08:54.759 --> 00:08:56.320
<v Speaker 4>I thought, well, I thought I was good enough of

218
00:08:56.399 --> 00:08:58.399
<v Speaker 4>doing the on air stuff and in terms of covering

219
00:08:58.440 --> 00:09:00.960
<v Speaker 4>things I never had covered, you know, Pac ten or

220
00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:01.519
<v Speaker 4>whatever it was.

221
00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:03.799
<v Speaker 2>I but you were capable. You were you were.

222
00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:06.559
<v Speaker 4>You were able to go in and do interviews. Yeah, yeah,

223
00:09:06.679 --> 00:09:08.399
<v Speaker 4>you knew the job. I was a little bit intimidated.

224
00:09:08.519 --> 00:09:10.279
<v Speaker 2>Okay, but you may have been that. But were you

225
00:09:10.279 --> 00:09:11.159
<v Speaker 2>good enough to do the job?

226
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:11.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh?

227
00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:14.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? And that's kind of my point. Whether you're at

228
00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:16.759
<v Speaker 2>the middle level, lower level and you're going to move up,

229
00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:19.440
<v Speaker 2>it's it's, at the end of the day, the same game,

230
00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:23.080
<v Speaker 2>coaching the same way. Yeah, and well, well he's not

231
00:09:23.120 --> 00:09:24.919
<v Speaker 2>going to he or she's going to struggle as they

232
00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:27.759
<v Speaker 2>move up, You're you're still the same coach. Yeah.

233
00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:29.399
<v Speaker 4>The only thing I was thinking of, too, is just

234
00:09:29.399 --> 00:09:31.840
<v Speaker 4>maybe her connections and trying to get new players, because

235
00:09:31.960 --> 00:09:34.720
<v Speaker 4>as you know, she's starting from zero, you know, so,

236
00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:38.159
<v Speaker 4>and that's where maybe, you know, are these women who

237
00:09:38.200 --> 00:09:39.960
<v Speaker 4>were out there thinking about going to Arizona. I have

238
00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:41.639
<v Speaker 4>no idea who this coach is. I don't know who

239
00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:43.639
<v Speaker 4>she is, sure where she came from. I don't know where.

240
00:09:43.919 --> 00:09:45.879
<v Speaker 4>You know, Buffalo is well, and that might be a

241
00:09:45.879 --> 00:09:47.360
<v Speaker 4>little bit of a hardship his first year.

242
00:09:47.480 --> 00:09:49.360
<v Speaker 2>So people like that say, well, do they have West

243
00:09:49.360 --> 00:09:52.000
<v Speaker 2>coast connections? Do they have these coast connections? But if

244
00:09:52.000 --> 00:09:55.399
<v Speaker 2>also you're a personable coach and you know how to recruit,

245
00:09:55.919 --> 00:09:57.720
<v Speaker 2>you should be able to do that anywhere in the country.

246
00:09:57.759 --> 00:10:00.159
<v Speaker 2>It's not the world. It's like Tommy for all his

247
00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:02.440
<v Speaker 2>his life, he was an assistant coach, right, and people

248
00:10:02.440 --> 00:10:04.159
<v Speaker 2>are thinking, well, how did you get to handle the

249
00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:06.480
<v Speaker 2>Everything turned out to be okay.

250
00:10:06.639 --> 00:10:10.039
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, let's I think the fact now that Arizona's in

251
00:10:10.080 --> 00:10:13.759
<v Speaker 4>a different conference where the geography is, you know pretty

252
00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:16.600
<v Speaker 4>much what it's almost like the middle part of the country,

253
00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:20.679
<v Speaker 4>the Southwest and the Rockies. You know, she's gonna and

254
00:10:20.960 --> 00:10:24.159
<v Speaker 4>she's coming from New York or Louisville, so she's kind

255
00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:26.600
<v Speaker 4>of got a little Midwestern ties. I'm you know, they

256
00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:28.960
<v Speaker 4>all know each other, sure, and you know she's gonna

257
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:30.879
<v Speaker 4>have friends who are gonna recommend players to her and

258
00:10:30.919 --> 00:10:31.399
<v Speaker 4>things like that.

259
00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:33.279
<v Speaker 2>Well, I'll give you this and this is what I

260
00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:37.279
<v Speaker 2>know because I know basketball fairly decently decently. Uh So

261
00:10:37.399 --> 00:10:40.600
<v Speaker 2>loot when he went recruiting when he first got here.

262
00:10:40.799 --> 00:10:43.919
<v Speaker 2>What are you thinking? What do you what are people thinking? Well,

263
00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:45.799
<v Speaker 2>he had West Coast ties because he coached the Lung

264
00:10:45.879 --> 00:10:49.679
<v Speaker 2>Beach College and then he went to Iowa obviously in

265
00:10:49.759 --> 00:10:55.159
<v Speaker 2>other places, so he had these connections. But what what

266
00:10:55.200 --> 00:10:57.159
<v Speaker 2>did he have that he had that he could recruit?

267
00:10:57.399 --> 00:11:00.480
<v Speaker 2>He had him, right, he had him, and then success.

268
00:11:00.679 --> 00:11:03.039
<v Speaker 2>Well that's probably a bad example, but even like Dick

269
00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:06.519
<v Speaker 2>told me he was at Hawaii, he had him just

270
00:11:06.639 --> 00:11:09.799
<v Speaker 2>and then parents will saying I want my son to

271
00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:10.480
<v Speaker 2>play for that guy.

272
00:11:10.720 --> 00:11:10.879
<v Speaker 5>Guy.

273
00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:11.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

274
00:11:11.679 --> 00:11:13.559
<v Speaker 4>I mean again, they're gonna have to get to know her,

275
00:11:13.879 --> 00:11:16.240
<v Speaker 4>and they're gonna she's gonna have to get out there

276
00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:17.039
<v Speaker 4>around the country.

277
00:11:18.039 --> 00:11:18.960
<v Speaker 3>You know, I don't even.

278
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:23.080
<v Speaker 4>Know these days where they're if there's like camps or

279
00:11:23.159 --> 00:11:25.279
<v Speaker 4>AAU events and things like that, she's gonna have to

280
00:11:25.279 --> 00:11:27.320
<v Speaker 4>show up now. And you know Las Vegas is a

281
00:11:27.320 --> 00:11:29.240
<v Speaker 4>big place for the for the guys in the summertime.

282
00:11:29.679 --> 00:11:33.720
<v Speaker 2>Well, here's your thing. Now they have the portal. I mean,

283
00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:36.399
<v Speaker 2>they can hunt and pick and and find and both

284
00:11:36.559 --> 00:11:38.919
<v Speaker 2>are both men and women. What do we need? Okay

285
00:11:38.960 --> 00:11:41.120
<v Speaker 2>with this guy does this and blah blah, blah. I'm

286
00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:44.279
<v Speaker 2>sure that's how they found Delorso a waka and all

287
00:11:44.320 --> 00:11:46.320
<v Speaker 2>these guys, because oh, that guy had a great tournament.

288
00:11:46.399 --> 00:11:48.000
<v Speaker 2>This is who he would going to the Big twelve.

289
00:11:48.279 --> 00:11:50.799
<v Speaker 2>He'd be perfect, rough and tumble with a waka. You

290
00:11:50.799 --> 00:11:52.519
<v Speaker 2>know what I'm saying, You need a shooter, where can

291
00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:52.919
<v Speaker 2>we find?

292
00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:56.039
<v Speaker 4>Oh, just kid, I'm sure she's doing the same thing.

293
00:11:56.480 --> 00:11:59.039
<v Speaker 4>There's a list of how many five foot six, you know,

294
00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:01.240
<v Speaker 4>shooting guards around out there, and there's probably one hundred

295
00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:03.120
<v Speaker 4>of them. Yeah and yeah, she's gonna have to try

296
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:06.399
<v Speaker 4>to figure it out. And you know, whatever the financial

297
00:12:06.440 --> 00:12:08.759
<v Speaker 4>situation might be in Arizona, how that's going to play.

298
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:12.399
<v Speaker 4>And then her personality and you know it's going to

299
00:12:12.440 --> 00:12:14.159
<v Speaker 4>be good. She's got a good personality. I'm sure she's

300
00:12:14.159 --> 00:12:17.279
<v Speaker 4>gould be impressive to the parents exactly, to whoever needs

301
00:12:17.279 --> 00:12:18.039
<v Speaker 4>to make those decisions.

302
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:22.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, exactly. So it's all about that personality, willing to win,

303
00:12:22.879 --> 00:12:26.799
<v Speaker 2>winning over the parents, winning over the kids. It's it's basketball. Well,

304
00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:29.159
<v Speaker 2>he doesn't haven't coached at this level before. I think

305
00:12:29.200 --> 00:12:31.759
<v Speaker 2>that's second. That's low on the list, because if you

306
00:12:31.799 --> 00:12:35.200
<v Speaker 2>can coach, if you could do TV Sima Luis Obispo.

307
00:12:35.320 --> 00:12:35.759
<v Speaker 3>That's true.

308
00:12:35.799 --> 00:12:38.440
<v Speaker 2>You could do TV in Tucson, Arizona does it, and

309
00:12:38.519 --> 00:12:41.320
<v Speaker 2>you can probably do that in New York. It's just different.

310
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:43.879
<v Speaker 4>Just never got that chance, nor did you want to.

311
00:12:44.080 --> 00:12:50.080
<v Speaker 4>Well maybe you did a little, who knows, but you're right.

312
00:12:50.120 --> 00:12:52.840
<v Speaker 4>You're right, though, I don't know. I just there's always

313
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:56.480
<v Speaker 4>been that, you know, experience factor too. I mean she's

314
00:12:56.480 --> 00:12:59.679
<v Speaker 4>thirty five, she's young. You know, how is she going

315
00:12:59.759 --> 00:13:02.159
<v Speaker 4>to do if someone like Gino or Ama is going

316
00:13:02.159 --> 00:13:03.759
<v Speaker 4>after the same player kind of thing.

317
00:13:05.399 --> 00:13:05.679
<v Speaker 2>Lose?

318
00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:07.320
<v Speaker 4>I mean, Tera is gone, so they don't have to

319
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:09.039
<v Speaker 4>compete with her. But the u c L a USC

320
00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:11.360
<v Speaker 4>teams are pretty darn good right now. So she's got

321
00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:12.120
<v Speaker 4>that to competing.

322
00:13:12.039 --> 00:13:13.879
<v Speaker 2>And you're also not competing against you know, you're you're

323
00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:16.639
<v Speaker 2>competing against the legacy. Yeah, you know you're competing against

324
00:13:16.919 --> 00:13:19.240
<v Speaker 2>Oh really, it's like Arizona. Why do you think Arizona's

325
00:13:19.240 --> 00:13:22.039
<v Speaker 2>has been so successful? Everyone? The perception is at the

326
00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:24.840
<v Speaker 2>basketball school? Yeah, uh, how do you think Sean and

327
00:13:25.080 --> 00:13:27.360
<v Speaker 2>he came in and he you know, Xavier, well he

328
00:13:27.440 --> 00:13:29.919
<v Speaker 2>never coach at this level. But it's a basketball school.

329
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:31.840
<v Speaker 2>It's a pretty decent place to live, and it's a

330
00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:36.120
<v Speaker 2>basketball school and they get people to the NBA. Yeah

331
00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:39.120
<v Speaker 2>h do they now not as much, but they still

332
00:13:39.159 --> 00:13:41.679

00:19:28.359 --> 00:19:34.559
<v Speaker 5>don't think why I should. Hey, aren't you small business? No?

451
00:19:34.720 --> 00:19:35.119
<v Speaker 5>Thank you?

452
00:19:35.240 --> 00:19:37.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh that's right. Are you glad you're not part of

453
00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:37.960
<v Speaker 2>that stuff?

454
00:19:39.079 --> 00:19:41.839
<v Speaker 5>Well, it's really to be honesty. We're really actually we are.

455
00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:45.240
<v Speaker 5>People do ask coming here if there's if there's money

456
00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:47.880
<v Speaker 5>to be had for coming here. It's not. It's everywhere now,

457
00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:50.759
<v Speaker 5>and players are asking what they can do to earn money,

458
00:19:50.799 --> 00:19:53.559
<v Speaker 5>you know, from side deals for social media and things

459
00:19:53.640 --> 00:19:56.119
<v Speaker 5>like that. It's it's just part of the fabric. I mean,

460
00:19:56.160 --> 00:19:59.480
<v Speaker 5>I don't really find again, I think it's what happens

461
00:19:59.480 --> 00:20:03.279
<v Speaker 5>when some of the it's a great overcorrection, I guess,

462
00:20:03.319 --> 00:20:06.200
<v Speaker 5>is what you say. And I think it'll get done

463
00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:07.319
<v Speaker 5>in a way where it's.

464
00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:08.079
<v Speaker 2>A lot more thoughtful.

465
00:20:08.079 --> 00:20:13.039
<v Speaker 5>I've heard some thoughtful ideas caps, you know, contracts that

466
00:20:13.160 --> 00:20:15.400
<v Speaker 5>go multiple years. I've heard some really cool things. And

467
00:20:15.480 --> 00:20:18.200
<v Speaker 5>again it will There are soccer players that do get

468
00:20:18.319 --> 00:20:20.680
<v Speaker 5>you know, twenty thirty thousand, but not like the numbers

469
00:20:20.720 --> 00:20:23.599
<v Speaker 5>are getting for revenue generating sports.

470
00:20:23.799 --> 00:20:27.880
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, so your season starts soon, right, how things?

471
00:20:27.880 --> 00:20:29.279
<v Speaker 3>How things progressing for that.

472
00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:34.079
<v Speaker 5>Fantastic? You know, our roster has been built, were slowly

473
00:20:34.119 --> 00:20:37.599
<v Speaker 5>announcing the players. We have our season take holder at

474
00:20:37.599 --> 00:20:41.079
<v Speaker 5>sponsors party this Friday at Corbetts. But again we open

475
00:20:41.400 --> 00:20:45.000
<v Speaker 5>on May third with our sort of community celebration where

476
00:20:45.000 --> 00:20:47.559
<v Speaker 5>we play a selection on Tucson, which is some of

477
00:20:47.559 --> 00:20:50.119
<v Speaker 5>the top men's league players in Tucson, a lot of

478
00:20:50.160 --> 00:20:53.720
<v Speaker 5>former some former FC two sound players, some younger players

479
00:20:53.720 --> 00:20:56.240
<v Speaker 5>from the UH from the from the one A WAT

480
00:20:56.359 --> 00:20:58.039
<v Speaker 5>to a league in the Tucson Metro League. And it's

481
00:20:58.079 --> 00:21:01.839
<v Speaker 5>a great celebration with fireworks and we're really excited about that.

482
00:21:02.000 --> 00:21:04.359
<v Speaker 5>Matt's but yeah, we kick off as in defense of

483
00:21:04.359 --> 00:21:08.400
<v Speaker 5>our Western Conference Championship, and you know, expectations are always high.

484
00:21:08.480 --> 00:21:11.039
<v Speaker 5>You know, in the last year, we in the last

485
00:21:11.079 --> 00:21:13.519
<v Speaker 5>two years as we were returned to USL two, we

486
00:21:13.519 --> 00:21:16.200
<v Speaker 5>were we lost one game and twenty three who went

487
00:21:16.240 --> 00:21:19.480
<v Speaker 5>all the way to the National semi finals, and twenty four.

488
00:21:19.559 --> 00:21:23.200
<v Speaker 5>So obviously, you know, coach Benada is put together another

489
00:21:23.240 --> 00:21:25.559
<v Speaker 5>team that we think can make a deep run. But

490
00:21:25.880 --> 00:21:29.559
<v Speaker 5>it starts with playing well on your opener and establishing

491
00:21:29.559 --> 00:21:32.759
<v Speaker 5>those relationship quickly, which is a big part of you

492
00:21:32.759 --> 00:21:35.079
<v Speaker 5>know USL League two ball. You have to put your

493
00:21:35.079 --> 00:21:38.359
<v Speaker 5>players together with your local superstars and the guys coming

494
00:21:38.400 --> 00:21:41.279
<v Speaker 5>in and we have players some all kinds of different

495
00:21:41.279 --> 00:21:44.680
<v Speaker 5>countries on the team, so making that chemistry is what

496
00:21:44.799 --> 00:21:47.559
<v Speaker 5>really step has got a gift for. And we're really

497
00:21:47.599 --> 00:21:49.720
<v Speaker 5>just incredibly excited for the team we have coming in.

498
00:21:50.079 --> 00:21:52.160
<v Speaker 2>How long have you been involved with SG two, so

499
00:21:52.480 --> 00:21:53.680
<v Speaker 2>I asked for a reason.

500
00:21:54.759 --> 00:21:58.440
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, since twenty eleven. Is really sort of the inception

501
00:21:58.559 --> 00:22:01.400
<v Speaker 5>when we played the first you know match at High

502
00:22:01.400 --> 00:22:03.680
<v Speaker 5>Corbett when we had supporting Kansas City played the Red

503
00:22:03.680 --> 00:22:06.279
<v Speaker 5>Bulls and we played the Red Bulls reserves actually, and

504
00:22:06.319 --> 00:22:07.240
<v Speaker 5>that was twenty eleven.

505
00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:10.400
<v Speaker 2>So what I wanted to ask is how far have

506
00:22:10.559 --> 00:22:11.799
<v Speaker 2>you come along with this?

507
00:22:14.599 --> 00:22:17.960
<v Speaker 5>I mean, when I guess that's very open, how far

508
00:22:18.000 --> 00:22:20.559
<v Speaker 5>have I come along as a coach, as a human being.

509
00:22:22.240 --> 00:22:24.599
<v Speaker 2>With the with the FC two. So because you've you've

510
00:22:24.599 --> 00:22:26.799
<v Speaker 2>transformed to into a lot of different things. But I'm

511
00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:28.880
<v Speaker 2>sure you're very pleased with what's going on now.

512
00:22:29.440 --> 00:22:32.759
<v Speaker 5>So now we're we're incredibly pleased. I mean, I think

513
00:22:32.960 --> 00:22:36.559
<v Speaker 5>what this was always about was to help us, you know,

514
00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:39.359
<v Speaker 5>put Tucson on the map for soccer in a number

515
00:22:39.359 --> 00:22:42.279
<v Speaker 5>of different ways. We've been part of, you know, the

516
00:22:42.319 --> 00:22:45.839
<v Speaker 5>development of fields. We've been part of the development of

517
00:22:46.200 --> 00:22:50.000
<v Speaker 5>lots of players. We've had on our USL two team,

518
00:22:50.759 --> 00:22:54.119
<v Speaker 5>a national team captain. We've had a Tucson player played

519
00:22:54.119 --> 00:22:57.400
<v Speaker 5>twelve years in the MLS. We've had our own players,

520
00:22:57.440 --> 00:23:00.880
<v Speaker 5>you know. You know this last week and Danny Musaski

521
00:23:01.039 --> 00:23:04.559
<v Speaker 5>twenty seventeen players scored for the Sounders and got engaged

522
00:23:04.599 --> 00:23:07.319
<v Speaker 5>in the same week. There's just so many personal moments.

523
00:23:07.319 --> 00:23:09.759
<v Speaker 5>But as a company, you know, we've really we've really

524
00:23:09.759 --> 00:23:12.200
<v Speaker 5>put ourselves, you know, back in a really great place

525
00:23:12.240 --> 00:23:14.440
<v Speaker 5>here and you know, as we head towards the twenty

526
00:23:14.480 --> 00:23:18.160
<v Speaker 5>twenty six World Cup, it's really positioning ourselves in that

527
00:23:18.240 --> 00:23:21.200
<v Speaker 5>final move. We really want to return to professional soccer,

528
00:23:21.240 --> 00:23:24.680
<v Speaker 5>but until we're able to do that thoughtfully, we are

529
00:23:24.759 --> 00:23:27.519
<v Speaker 5>just really players. We have such a great partnership with

530
00:23:27.680 --> 00:23:31.319
<v Speaker 5>SCTs on Youth and we're producing top collegiate players there.

531
00:23:31.359 --> 00:23:33.279
<v Speaker 5>We work with PEMA College, we work with the u

532
00:23:33.319 --> 00:23:37.039
<v Speaker 5>of A. We have so many different sports, you know,

533
00:23:37.119 --> 00:23:40.279
<v Speaker 5>interns that are able to develop using us as sort

534
00:23:40.279 --> 00:23:42.759
<v Speaker 5>of an incubator for their skill sets. And we have

535
00:23:43.359 --> 00:23:48.519
<v Speaker 5>people working in sports all across the NBA, MLB, the Olympics, FEFA. Now.

536
00:23:49.359 --> 00:23:51.519
<v Speaker 5>So I mean we're just we're just happy with what

537
00:23:51.519 --> 00:23:54.839
<v Speaker 5>we've done. I mean, we're really satisfied, but unsatisfied all

538
00:23:54.880 --> 00:23:56.480
<v Speaker 5>the time. I mean, we obviously want to win a

539
00:23:56.559 --> 00:23:59.279
<v Speaker 5>national championship. We want to return to the pros, and

540
00:24:00.119 --> 00:24:03.359
<v Speaker 5>we want to make sure that people remember Tucson as

541
00:24:03.480 --> 00:24:06.440
<v Speaker 5>a place that you know, produces great soccer and great

542
00:24:06.440 --> 00:24:09.559
<v Speaker 5>people and put you know, just have people come here

543
00:24:09.599 --> 00:24:11.759
<v Speaker 5>and visit. And that's just what we've always done and

544
00:24:11.799 --> 00:24:13.000
<v Speaker 5>we're going to continue doing that.

545
00:24:13.400 --> 00:24:16.440
<v Speaker 4>One question I always had is just kind of watching soccer,

546
00:24:16.720 --> 00:24:18.279
<v Speaker 4>you know, as a dad and as a fan and

547
00:24:18.319 --> 00:24:21.720
<v Speaker 4>things like that, and in Arizona. Is why why is

548
00:24:22.200 --> 00:24:25.519
<v Speaker 4>MLS not in Phoenix? Why are they not in Maricopa

549
00:24:25.519 --> 00:24:26.279
<v Speaker 4>County someplace?

550
00:24:26.880 --> 00:24:30.119
<v Speaker 5>I think that's an incredibly good question. I think the

551
00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:34.400
<v Speaker 5>as we've gotten through sort of the conversations that I've

552
00:24:34.440 --> 00:24:38.079
<v Speaker 5>been privy to, the biggest part is having it is

553
00:24:38.160 --> 00:24:41.519
<v Speaker 5>you have to have a stadium that is climate controlled,

554
00:24:42.119 --> 00:24:44.680
<v Speaker 5>with an ownership group that is willing to invest in

555
00:24:44.680 --> 00:24:48.000
<v Speaker 5>a climate controlled stadium. So I think one would think

556
00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:51.440
<v Speaker 5>that the most logical position would be an NFL owner.

557
00:24:51.480 --> 00:24:53.759
<v Speaker 5>That's what's happened in other markets. You know, you're talking

558
00:24:53.880 --> 00:24:57.480
<v Speaker 5>Arthur Blank, You're talking obviously the Craft family in New England.

559
00:24:57.960 --> 00:25:00.880
<v Speaker 5>So I mean, I don't know if that's an interest

560
00:25:00.960 --> 00:25:03.759
<v Speaker 5>for we have a stadium that hosts, you know, world

561
00:25:03.839 --> 00:25:05.960
<v Speaker 5>class games. We didn't bid for the World Cup, which

562
00:25:06.000 --> 00:25:08.640
<v Speaker 5>I thought was shocking to me, and we don't have

563
00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:12.440
<v Speaker 5>games being played in the World Cup. But I mean, again,

564
00:25:12.480 --> 00:25:15.440
<v Speaker 5>that's really a climate controlled team. Obviously, Phoenix is maybe

565
00:25:15.920 --> 00:25:18.640
<v Speaker 5>eleventh in terms of a TV mark, in terms of populace,

566
00:25:18.720 --> 00:25:21.920
<v Speaker 5>it's it's it's obviously on their target list, but you

567
00:25:22.119 --> 00:25:25.599
<v Speaker 5>just haven't found the ownership group or maybe the situation

568
00:25:25.759 --> 00:25:28.880
<v Speaker 5>in some places have shot ahead of them with very

569
00:25:28.880 --> 00:25:31.960
<v Speaker 5>aggressive ownership groups, like we saw in San Diego with

570
00:25:32.000 --> 00:25:35.960
<v Speaker 5>the new team there, and obviously Las Vegas has been

571
00:25:36.279 --> 00:25:39.480
<v Speaker 5>popping out there. But Phoenix Las Vegas have been obviously

572
00:25:39.720 --> 00:25:42.319
<v Speaker 5>a part where people think that two of the next

573
00:25:42.319 --> 00:25:45.200
<v Speaker 5>teams could come from there. And really Don Garbage it

574
00:25:45.240 --> 00:25:48.240
<v Speaker 5>never shows his hand too early. But again I think

575
00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:52.359
<v Speaker 5>that there's it's to me, it's probably not if it's

576
00:25:52.079 --> 00:25:55.400
<v Speaker 5>it's not if it's when, And I couldn't speak to

577
00:25:55.440 --> 00:25:56.400
<v Speaker 5>that exact moment.

578
00:25:57.759 --> 00:26:00.839
<v Speaker 2>What set us up for this upcoming seat and what

579
00:26:00.880 --> 00:26:02.319
<v Speaker 2>do you guys like, what do you guys have?

580
00:26:04.240 --> 00:26:07.880
<v Speaker 5>We've got strong returners from Tucson obviously, we have to

581
00:26:07.960 --> 00:26:13.079
<v Speaker 5>all Americans from Tucson, and DeAndre Pickett and Ismael Garcia

582
00:26:13.119 --> 00:26:15.519
<v Speaker 5>from Pima who took PEMA all the way to the

583
00:26:15.599 --> 00:26:18.799
<v Speaker 5>national tournament. We have Diego Valis who plays right back

584
00:26:18.799 --> 00:26:21.519
<v Speaker 5>for Grant Canyon. In terms of local players, and there

585
00:26:21.519 --> 00:26:24.920
<v Speaker 5>are Brandon Santez who's also played at Pima, was an

586
00:26:24.920 --> 00:26:28.519
<v Speaker 5>All American headed to TSCU Pubo who's a national powerhouse

587
00:26:28.559 --> 00:26:32.200
<v Speaker 5>at Division two. And then a slew of players you

588
00:26:32.240 --> 00:26:36.160
<v Speaker 5>know from various top programs across the country with a

589
00:26:36.279 --> 00:26:41.240
<v Speaker 5>variety of nationalgis. We've got Brazilian, Colombian, German, you name it,

590
00:26:41.319 --> 00:26:43.759
<v Speaker 5>we have a player from that country and they're all

591
00:26:44.160 --> 00:26:46.839
<v Speaker 5>time tested from coaches that we trust, that we believe in,

592
00:26:47.200 --> 00:26:49.079
<v Speaker 5>that have told us that these players are are key

593
00:26:49.119 --> 00:26:52.039
<v Speaker 5>members of their teams and are really able to produce them.

594
00:26:52.079 --> 00:26:54.680
<v Speaker 5>We've picked off a couple of star players from a

595
00:26:54.880 --> 00:26:56.880
<v Speaker 5>rival teams as well, which is always great to do

596
00:26:57.079 --> 00:26:59.799
<v Speaker 5>so hopefully that the chemistry will come through the way

597
00:26:59.799 --> 00:27:02.480
<v Speaker 5>we want to. And obviously amongst them, we have our

598
00:27:02.519 --> 00:27:04.480
<v Speaker 5>youth players in the training group there so they'll be

599
00:27:04.559 --> 00:27:07.000
<v Speaker 5>ready to be part of the team when they're ready

600
00:27:07.039 --> 00:27:11.920
<v Speaker 5>to to become college players and move up. And we're obviously,

601
00:27:12.400 --> 00:27:14.440
<v Speaker 5>you know, some young players in our academy that are

602
00:27:14.440 --> 00:27:17.319
<v Speaker 5>finishing out their academy careers that we think will be great,

603
00:27:17.359 --> 00:27:20.240
<v Speaker 5>like of course, you know, you know Gonzales who broke

604
00:27:20.279 --> 00:27:23.200
<v Speaker 5>every high school scoring record. So I mean, for us,

605
00:27:23.240 --> 00:27:26.160
<v Speaker 5>it's really critical that we developed players here locally, but

606
00:27:26.480 --> 00:27:28.960
<v Speaker 5>we put them with players from across the country and

607
00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:30.880
<v Speaker 5>they're going to challenge them and help them grow. And

608
00:27:30.920 --> 00:27:33.640
<v Speaker 5>I think there was most evident with DeAndre Pickett, who

609
00:27:33.680 --> 00:27:36.480
<v Speaker 5>now plays in the ACC for cal and there's no

610
00:27:36.519 --> 00:27:38.559
<v Speaker 5>bigger soccer conference in that in the country.

611
00:27:39.319 --> 00:27:42.079
<v Speaker 4>When you talk youth academies, what age group are we

612
00:27:42.079 --> 00:27:43.480
<v Speaker 4>talking about when they can get started.

613
00:27:44.759 --> 00:27:48.720
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, So obviously FCTWO Sun has its own youth programming

614
00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:52.559
<v Speaker 5>through uh what we also offer. It's from from three

615
00:27:52.640 --> 00:27:55.039
<v Speaker 5>years old all the way to nineteen, but we offer

616
00:27:55.079 --> 00:27:57.240
<v Speaker 5>a you twenty team, which is aret the best of

617
00:27:57.279 --> 00:28:00.759
<v Speaker 5>our youth academy players any age from you would call

618
00:28:01.119 --> 00:28:04.240
<v Speaker 5>fifteen to twenty. So it doesn't matter how young you're.

619
00:28:04.279 --> 00:28:07.160
<v Speaker 5>Obviously you've seen in the world players competing at sixteen

620
00:28:07.200 --> 00:28:09.799
<v Speaker 5>years old, like Wayne Rooney and Email Messi was already

621
00:28:09.839 --> 00:28:12.680
<v Speaker 5>making his debut at seventeen at Barcelona and me and

622
00:28:12.799 --> 00:28:16.960
<v Speaker 5>Jamal right now is dominating at seventeen years old. So

623
00:28:17.240 --> 00:28:18.960
<v Speaker 5>we don't put in an age cap that the player can

624
00:28:19.039 --> 00:28:22.480
<v Speaker 5>handle the environment. We encourage them to do that and

625
00:28:22.519 --> 00:28:28.720
<v Speaker 5>so that they play against professional youth teams from across Phoenix, Rising,

626
00:28:29.039 --> 00:28:33.559
<v Speaker 5>New Mexico United, al Paso all have USL teams and

627
00:28:33.160 --> 00:28:36.000
<v Speaker 5>they participate in that league in the Varsity Academy, which

628
00:28:36.039 --> 00:28:38.839
<v Speaker 5>is in constant. Grant who's produced numerous players that are

629
00:28:38.839 --> 00:28:41.319
<v Speaker 5>now on the national team are playing the MLS or abroad.

630
00:28:41.960 --> 00:28:45.839
<v Speaker 5>So again for us, you know, it's complete programming. We

631
00:28:45.920 --> 00:28:47.799
<v Speaker 5>try to make sure that we do a good job

632
00:28:47.839 --> 00:28:50.599
<v Speaker 5>to give these players, you know, an amazing summer in

633
00:28:50.599 --> 00:28:53.440
<v Speaker 5>addition to what they're already getting. And obviously we have

634
00:28:53.480 --> 00:28:56.079
<v Speaker 5>a great coach in Sebastian Pineda who coaches as well

635
00:28:56.440 --> 00:28:58.720
<v Speaker 5>with the U OFA Women and he just does a

636
00:28:58.720 --> 00:29:01.559
<v Speaker 5>tremendous job. And we're really just looking forward to them

637
00:29:01.559 --> 00:29:05.079
<v Speaker 5>and our women's team, uh playing the summer and just

638
00:29:05.160 --> 00:29:08.640
<v Speaker 5>producing uh great great moments for families and and and

639
00:29:08.720 --> 00:29:10.640
<v Speaker 5>great moments on the field like we had last summer.

640
00:29:11.839 --> 00:29:15.359
<v Speaker 2>This is a question that's not related to FC Tucson,

641
00:29:15.599 --> 00:29:18.680
<v Speaker 2>but what's your what are your thoughts on the German

642
00:29:18.720 --> 00:29:21.519
<v Speaker 2>team going to try to break ground on South in

643
00:29:21.599 --> 00:29:22.200
<v Speaker 2>South Tucston.

644
00:29:23.160 --> 00:29:26.160
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I think again, you know, obviously, you know it's

645
00:29:26.200 --> 00:29:29.920
<v Speaker 5>been with that piece of property being sort of I mean,

646
00:29:29.920 --> 00:29:32.599
<v Speaker 5>there's lots of challenges that South Tucson has dealt with

647
00:29:32.680 --> 00:29:35.400
<v Speaker 5>in terms of obviously the closing of the dog track

648
00:29:35.799 --> 00:29:39.039
<v Speaker 5>and what to do with those properties and developers. I'm

649
00:29:39.119 --> 00:29:41.720
<v Speaker 5>hopeful for them obviously, I think they'll be you know,

650
00:29:42.079 --> 00:29:44.039
<v Speaker 5>a lot of work to do in the in the

651
00:29:44.079 --> 00:29:46.720
<v Speaker 5>in the to develop that piece of property. But again,

652
00:29:46.839 --> 00:29:49.400
<v Speaker 5>the more the more places where kids can play and

653
00:29:49.440 --> 00:29:51.880
<v Speaker 5>train here is something I'm always going to be behind.

654
00:29:52.640 --> 00:29:56.359
<v Speaker 5>I'll I'll always I watch it with great interest. You know,

655
00:29:56.480 --> 00:30:00.319
<v Speaker 5>lots of teams like ourselves have partnerships with with the

656
00:30:00.319 --> 00:30:02.640
<v Speaker 5>clubs abroad, so we're always open to that. We've had

657
00:30:02.680 --> 00:30:06.319
<v Speaker 5>conversations with, you know, clubs in Spain, clubs in Mexico.

658
00:30:06.359 --> 00:30:09.000
<v Speaker 5>We continue to keep those dialogues open to find the

659
00:30:09.079 --> 00:30:12.400
<v Speaker 5>best partners for our players, for the best partners for Tucson,

660
00:30:12.880 --> 00:30:16.000
<v Speaker 5>who really are invested in the community long term. But yeah,

661
00:30:16.119 --> 00:30:19.440
<v Speaker 5>I'm hopeful that that can be something that gets developed,

662
00:30:19.440 --> 00:30:22.640
<v Speaker 5>you know, along with the obviously the Mosaic Quarter. But

663
00:30:23.279 --> 00:30:26.160
<v Speaker 5>you know, for us, we have a great partnership with

664
00:30:26.839 --> 00:30:30.480
<v Speaker 5>the Stadium District PEMO. We love Keno North, we love

665
00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:32.960
<v Speaker 5>where we train and play right now, and when we're

666
00:30:33.000 --> 00:30:35.599
<v Speaker 5>ready to grow, we're sort of looking for opportunities where

667
00:30:35.839 --> 00:30:39.279
<v Speaker 5>maybe it best suits us to play when we return

668
00:30:39.319 --> 00:30:42.480
<v Speaker 5>to professional but we're super happy with our digs right now,

669
00:30:42.519 --> 00:30:46.400
<v Speaker 5>and or encourage anyone to try to develop composition and

670
00:30:46.680 --> 00:30:49.200
<v Speaker 5>here it only is going to help kids have more opportunities,

671
00:30:49.240 --> 00:30:51.240
<v Speaker 5>which is the reason I got onto this in the

672
00:30:51.240 --> 00:30:51.720
<v Speaker 5>first place.

673
00:30:51.799 --> 00:30:54.240
<v Speaker 2>So you talked about this, for mentioning this at least twice,

674
00:30:54.279 --> 00:30:58.480
<v Speaker 2>about playing professionally at some point realistic, realistically, can that

675
00:30:58.559 --> 00:30:59.519
<v Speaker 2>happen anytime soon?

676
00:31:01.119 --> 00:31:03.119
<v Speaker 5>Yeah? I think so. I mean I think for me,

677
00:31:03.440 --> 00:31:06.599
<v Speaker 5>you know, I set a goal of, you know, by

678
00:31:06.680 --> 00:31:10.599
<v Speaker 5>the end of twenty six having a franchise again. You know,

679
00:31:10.640 --> 00:31:14.359
<v Speaker 5>I don't think we'll start playing twenty six, but coming

680
00:31:14.400 --> 00:31:16.519
<v Speaker 5>to an agreement and finding a partnership group. I mean,

681
00:31:16.519 --> 00:31:19.359
<v Speaker 5>that's the number one goal starting you know, once we

682
00:31:19.440 --> 00:31:22.720
<v Speaker 5>hit you know, probably July this summer. I mean, that's

683
00:31:22.720 --> 00:31:26.559
<v Speaker 5>really where I turned my personal focus to. I've been

684
00:31:27.000 --> 00:31:32.200
<v Speaker 5>really a strong group of individuals I've mentored to help

685
00:31:32.240 --> 00:31:34.519
<v Speaker 5>run the company and allow me to think bigger and

686
00:31:34.519 --> 00:31:37.119
<v Speaker 5>bigger ideas. You know how that works if you're stuck

687
00:31:37.160 --> 00:31:39.640
<v Speaker 5>in the day to day and you're not able to

688
00:31:39.759 --> 00:31:41.920
<v Speaker 5>really you know, have the conversations you want to have

689
00:31:42.039 --> 00:31:45.799
<v Speaker 5>with and sort of developed a vision. But I have

690
00:31:45.839 --> 00:31:48.599
<v Speaker 5>such an incredible support staff and so many young and

691
00:31:48.640 --> 00:31:51.200
<v Speaker 5>talented people that are now with me full time that

692
00:31:51.440 --> 00:31:53.559
<v Speaker 5>I'm really able to do that. So, you know, my

693
00:31:53.640 --> 00:31:56.039
<v Speaker 5>goal obviously to have a lot of conversations in the

694
00:31:56.079 --> 00:31:58.960
<v Speaker 5>next twelve to fifteen months heading into the World Cup

695
00:31:59.480 --> 00:32:02.519
<v Speaker 5>next summer, and then obviously have some some news to

696
00:32:02.720 --> 00:32:04.640
<v Speaker 5>produce during that period of time, where I think is

697
00:32:04.640 --> 00:32:07.000
<v Speaker 5>going to be a real, real turning point for this

698
00:32:07.039 --> 00:32:08.880
<v Speaker 5>country in terms of the growth of the game.

699
00:32:10.079 --> 00:32:12.160
<v Speaker 4>I was gonna say to you mentioned Mosaic Quarter. Is

700
00:32:12.200 --> 00:32:14.559
<v Speaker 4>there any soccer plans for the Mosaic Quarter.

701
00:32:15.759 --> 00:32:19.279
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I think, you know, there's in phase three of

702
00:32:19.319 --> 00:32:23.440
<v Speaker 5>the master plan. There's a soccer stadium in a beautiful drawing,

703
00:32:23.519 --> 00:32:26.799
<v Speaker 5>and like I always say, I I've seen a lot

704
00:32:26.799 --> 00:32:29.400
<v Speaker 5>of beautiful drawings in my time, and that you know,

705
00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:31.960
<v Speaker 5>I'm really happy that they're breaking ground. I think it's

706
00:32:32.000 --> 00:32:35.359
<v Speaker 5>a wonderful thing for that area and for me. But uh,

707
00:32:35.720 --> 00:32:38.160
<v Speaker 5>you know, it will it match the timeline of what

708
00:32:38.240 --> 00:32:41.960
<v Speaker 5>we need to do or is that location the perfect

709
00:32:42.000 --> 00:32:44.480
<v Speaker 5>location for our team. I think that's yet to be

710
00:32:44.559 --> 00:32:47.960
<v Speaker 5>determined on how that development goes. So again, we had

711
00:32:48.000 --> 00:32:51.559
<v Speaker 5>some initial conversations there. Their focus right now is obviously

712
00:32:51.599 --> 00:32:55.960
<v Speaker 5>in the first phase and it's obviously a very interesting

713
00:32:56.000 --> 00:32:58.319
<v Speaker 5>time in our country in terms of volatility for doing

714
00:32:58.400 --> 00:33:02.559
<v Speaker 5>large projects. So I'm really just excited for them. I

715
00:33:02.559 --> 00:33:04.599
<v Speaker 5>hope it's going as well as it can go, and

716
00:33:04.640 --> 00:33:07.599
<v Speaker 5>I'm excited for Pema County. But like I said, for us,

717
00:33:08.519 --> 00:33:12.279
<v Speaker 5>you know that timeline and what that stadium would actually

718
00:33:12.319 --> 00:33:14.880
<v Speaker 5>look like and what the terms of that are obviously

719
00:33:14.920 --> 00:33:17.480
<v Speaker 5>are are to be seen more when they than they

720
00:33:17.480 --> 00:33:20.400
<v Speaker 5>commit to that piece of the project, if that makes sense.

721
00:33:20.960 --> 00:33:22.839
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah, So we got a couple of minutes here

722
00:33:22.920 --> 00:33:26.000
<v Speaker 2>John refresh us on what to do at the beginning

723
00:33:26.000 --> 00:33:28.839
<v Speaker 2>of the season, where to go for tickets, stuff like that.

724
00:33:30.720 --> 00:33:33.519
<v Speaker 5>Incredible, we were still got a season tickets on sale.

725
00:33:33.519 --> 00:33:35.640

00:33:35.680 --> 00:33:37.559

895
00:41:21.159 --> 00:41:22.880
<v Speaker 4>on the team or whatever, the fifteenth guy on.

896
00:41:22.840 --> 00:41:25.960
<v Speaker 2>These This world is kind of crazy, and a lot

897
00:41:26.000 --> 00:41:28.159
<v Speaker 2>of the football players getting chunks. I guess they've been

898
00:41:28.199 --> 00:41:31.039
<v Speaker 2>working on a lot of the relanguaging of the contracts

899
00:41:31.320 --> 00:41:34.039
<v Speaker 2>because they're gonna have to cut some scholarships make it

900
00:41:34.119 --> 00:41:37.119
<v Speaker 2>more tight for football and rosters and things like that,

901
00:41:37.159 --> 00:41:39.320
<v Speaker 2>because you can't give one hundred and ten people two

902
00:41:39.400 --> 00:41:42.360
<v Speaker 2>hundred thousand, right, and then the women get what they get, right.

903
00:41:42.400 --> 00:41:44.159
<v Speaker 2>And that was probably one of the probably it was

904
00:41:44.199 --> 00:41:47.519
<v Speaker 2>one of the stickers with idea that their percentage was

905
00:41:47.559 --> 00:41:49.519
<v Speaker 2>going to be very, very small.

906
00:41:49.559 --> 00:41:50.960
<v Speaker 4>What do you think it's going to be at SMU.

907
00:41:51.280 --> 00:41:53.920
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I'm sure most of there they drew nothing.

908
00:41:54.079 --> 00:41:57.440
<v Speaker 2>Probably be a same percentage, but more more back money

909
00:41:57.440 --> 00:41:59.920
<v Speaker 2>from people who have money. True, you know, the day

910
00:42:00.039 --> 00:42:03.079
<v Speaker 2>Silvers of the world will donate to the to the program. No,

911
00:42:03.239 --> 00:42:05.800
<v Speaker 2>But I also think though she's got to prove herself first.

912
00:42:05.840 --> 00:42:07.400
<v Speaker 2>I mean, they're not just gonna willy nilly and give

913
00:42:07.440 --> 00:42:09.719
<v Speaker 2>you money just because I would assume.

914
00:42:09.840 --> 00:42:13.199
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and you know, her her task is to you know,

915
00:42:13.199 --> 00:42:15.320
<v Speaker 4>build up program. It didn't do very well the last

916
00:42:15.360 --> 00:42:17.320
<v Speaker 4>couple of years. She's you know, not really walking into

917
00:42:17.320 --> 00:42:20.480
<v Speaker 4>the greatest situation. She did that here, Yeah, you know,

918
00:42:20.599 --> 00:42:22.280
<v Speaker 4>so we'll see if she can do the same thing.

919
00:42:22.400 --> 00:42:24.599
<v Speaker 4>She had the charisma here, she had the you know,

920
00:42:24.639 --> 00:42:26.639
<v Speaker 4>the she had the notoriety. People you know, kind of

921
00:42:26.679 --> 00:42:28.920
<v Speaker 4>instantly knew who she was. So that didn't hurt.

922
00:42:29.039 --> 00:42:32.559
<v Speaker 2>No, no question, and she hit She hit the target

923
00:42:32.639 --> 00:42:36.000
<v Speaker 2>right away. I found success. Uh, you're gonna have w

924
00:42:36.159 --> 00:42:37.480
<v Speaker 2>NBA stuff, I'm assuming right.

925
00:42:37.559 --> 00:42:37.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

926
00:42:37.920 --> 00:42:41.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because there's some connections to Arizona on that draft

927
00:42:41.480 --> 00:42:44.559
<v Speaker 2>last night. I won't say what, but no, it's how

928
00:42:44.599 --> 00:42:47.440
<v Speaker 2>you're teasing me. I can't because you don't know. Okay, No, cool,

929
00:42:47.599 --> 00:42:50.079
<v Speaker 2>you have to wait date, hold on, hold your horses day.

930
00:42:50.079 --> 00:42:50.199
<v Speaker 5>Oh.

931
00:42:50.199 --> 00:42:54.000
<v Speaker 4>I saw Ari McDonald re signed today with the LA Sparks.

932
00:42:54.320 --> 00:42:57.360
<v Speaker 4>Speaking of UFA women's players still still playing, Yeah, well,

933
00:42:57.400 --> 00:42:59.280
<v Speaker 4>she's only like four years removing.

934
00:42:59.039 --> 00:43:01.000
<v Speaker 3>Right now, it seems like she's been around for a

935
00:43:01.039 --> 00:43:01.519
<v Speaker 3>long time.

936
00:43:01.800 --> 00:43:04.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well she because we saw her for seven for

937
00:43:04.480 --> 00:43:07.280
<v Speaker 2>three and then four down three you know, so, uh

938
00:43:07.800 --> 00:43:10.360
<v Speaker 2>and some I saw Sam Thomas on some tea and

939
00:43:10.480 --> 00:43:12.880
<v Speaker 2>some photos the last couple of days. You were saying

940
00:43:12.880 --> 00:43:15.320
<v Speaker 2>that she may have been part of it. Was there

941
00:43:15.480 --> 00:43:18.079
<v Speaker 2>at the news conference, Yeah, that's where I was. But

942
00:43:18.159 --> 00:43:19.679
<v Speaker 2>you're saying that she might have been part of the

943
00:43:19.719 --> 00:43:20.400
<v Speaker 2>helping of these.

944
00:43:20.440 --> 00:43:22.760
<v Speaker 4>Some of the stories I read was that she may

945
00:43:22.800 --> 00:43:25.159
<v Speaker 4>have been involved in the search committee and maybe they

946
00:43:25.199 --> 00:43:27.519
<v Speaker 4>asked for her opinion on things or you know, what

947
00:43:27.599 --> 00:43:29.480
<v Speaker 4>the players are looking for in a coach kind of thing.

948
00:43:29.639 --> 00:43:31.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no, that's how that would go. And that would

949
00:43:31.159 --> 00:43:33.440
<v Speaker 2>be actually a good question. Uh you know what, what

950
00:43:33.599 --> 00:43:34.559
<v Speaker 2>what makes a good coach?

951
00:43:34.559 --> 00:43:34.719
<v Speaker 5>Here?

952
00:43:34.840 --> 00:43:35.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

953
00:43:35.559 --> 00:43:40.719
<v Speaker 2>And in today's world, because you don't have there are

954
00:43:40.840 --> 00:43:43.719
<v Speaker 2>very few older coaches anymore that are any good. You know,

955
00:43:43.719 --> 00:43:50.800
<v Speaker 2>Patino's seventy something sixty nine, I think seventy oh at least, So,

956
00:43:50.840 --> 00:43:52.760
<v Speaker 2>you know what I'm saying, those guys are almost ready

957
00:43:52.760 --> 00:43:54.760
<v Speaker 2>to get out of the game. And though the younger

958
00:43:54.800 --> 00:43:56.840
<v Speaker 2>coaches are starting to come up, you know, the Florida

959
00:43:56.880 --> 00:44:01.840
<v Speaker 2>coach obviously Tommy and those guys. You know what I'm saying,

960
00:44:01.960 --> 00:44:03.599
<v Speaker 2>So it's a new philosophy because you have to have

961
00:44:03.639 --> 00:44:06.840
<v Speaker 2>the news philosophy. You can't have the old school philosophy. Yeah,

962
00:44:06.920 --> 00:44:09.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, with kids stay, especially with them making money.

963
00:44:09.880 --> 00:44:12.199
<v Speaker 4>It's you know, when I think about how the coaches

964
00:44:12.239 --> 00:44:15.280
<v Speaker 4>would operate back, you know, even what ten years ago,

965
00:44:15.360 --> 00:44:17.559
<v Speaker 4>when they were all worried about going to Vegas or

966
00:44:17.599 --> 00:44:20.159
<v Speaker 4>going to these recruiting things during the summer. You know,

967
00:44:20.480 --> 00:44:23.039
<v Speaker 4>is that even a priority anymore? Where there's two thousand

968
00:44:23.039 --> 00:44:25.480
<v Speaker 4>players in the transfer portal? You know, do you go

969
00:44:25.599 --> 00:44:27.880
<v Speaker 4>look that route? Now, well, that's the whole thing.

970
00:44:27.920 --> 00:44:29.559
<v Speaker 2>We talked about this with a lot of the JC

971
00:44:29.719 --> 00:44:32.119
<v Speaker 2>guys with the peabodies, the monocos and stuff like that,

972
00:44:32.760 --> 00:44:35.800
<v Speaker 2>and now they're trying to get those where you go

973
00:44:35.880 --> 00:44:38.159
<v Speaker 2>to JC and you don't lose any exactly legibility.

974
00:44:38.199 --> 00:44:39.360
<v Speaker 3>That's the way it's going to be, right.

975
00:44:39.639 --> 00:44:41.800
<v Speaker 2>So, so no, those guys and the high school kids

976
00:44:41.800 --> 00:44:43.400
<v Speaker 2>are going to be kind of shut out because if

977
00:44:43.440 --> 00:44:45.800
<v Speaker 2>you if you're a coach, Dave, and you have some

978
00:44:45.880 --> 00:44:48.199
<v Speaker 2>issues with trying to fill rosters, where are you going

979
00:44:48.280 --> 00:44:51.400
<v Speaker 2>to go first? Yeah, the portal, because you're going to

980
00:44:51.440 --> 00:44:53.159
<v Speaker 2>go after a guy that's already been there, done that,

981
00:44:53.199 --> 00:44:55.400
<v Speaker 2>and has some experience at that level. Now, I'm kind

982
00:44:55.400 --> 00:44:57.159
<v Speaker 2>of doing the opposite of what I told you. If

983
00:44:57.159 --> 00:44:59.079
<v Speaker 2>you're going from San Luis a we's good too and

984
00:44:59.119 --> 00:45:01.480
<v Speaker 2>not given it the kids a chance, right, But if

985
00:45:01.519 --> 00:45:04.480
<v Speaker 2>you have this kid like Beriz who's a high school feenom,

986
00:45:04.760 --> 00:45:05.960
<v Speaker 2>you ain't gonna pass on him.

987
00:45:06.159 --> 00:45:07.440
<v Speaker 3>You don't want to pass on him. And how long

988
00:45:07.480 --> 00:45:08.199
<v Speaker 3>is he going to be here?

989
00:45:08.320 --> 00:45:08.440
<v Speaker 2>Right?

990
00:45:08.480 --> 00:45:11.159
<v Speaker 4>You know those guys are maybe short term situations. With

991
00:45:11.280 --> 00:45:14.039
<v Speaker 4>the Carter Bryants of the world. You know, we don't

992
00:45:14.039 --> 00:45:15.840
<v Speaker 4>know is he gonna come back? Is he going to stay?

993
00:45:17.719 --> 00:45:20.760
<v Speaker 4>That's the risk you take and taking a blue ship

994
00:45:20.960 --> 00:45:23.480
<v Speaker 4>high school player nowadays where you can go get you know,

995
00:45:23.639 --> 00:45:25.920
<v Speaker 4>a couple of transfers who might be able to you know,

996
00:45:26.000 --> 00:45:28.960
<v Speaker 4>look look at Tobey and del Arso are going to

997
00:45:29.000 --> 00:45:31.840
<v Speaker 4>be here for at least two more two years total

998
00:45:31.960 --> 00:45:32.280
<v Speaker 4>for sure.

999
00:45:32.400 --> 00:45:34.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. You know, it's funny back in the day, and

1000
00:45:34.079 --> 00:45:36.519
<v Speaker 2>I can't remember the conversations with lut and them. Do

1001
00:45:36.639 --> 00:45:38.880
<v Speaker 2>you go after a guy who you know is going

1002
00:45:38.920 --> 00:45:42.679
<v Speaker 2>to be one year or not and then or go

1003
00:45:42.679 --> 00:45:45.360
<v Speaker 2>after a more stable three four year guy. And I

1004
00:45:45.400 --> 00:45:47.840
<v Speaker 2>remember kind of him saying you go after the talent.

1005
00:45:47.920 --> 00:45:50.079
<v Speaker 2>You go after the talent, because let's share. We talked

1006
00:45:50.079 --> 00:45:52.800
<v Speaker 2>about this. I think off the air, look at the roster,

1007
00:45:53.239 --> 00:45:57.079
<v Speaker 2>the returning corps outside of love, right, but you replaced

1008
00:45:57.119 --> 00:46:03.079
<v Speaker 2>him with with Cole Pete, Cole Pete. You have the

1009
00:46:03.079 --> 00:46:08.719
<v Speaker 2>Bery's coming in. You have the Bryant kid, k Lebron

1010
00:46:08.719 --> 00:46:12.679
<v Speaker 2>and Brons Lebron, Lebron, Lebron's son, and then another one,

1011
00:46:12.760 --> 00:46:16.880
<v Speaker 2>the Aristonta Aristot. So you have some great group next year,

1012
00:46:17.079 --> 00:46:20.480
<v Speaker 2>Tommy might have one year window that window doesn't open

1013
00:46:20.599 --> 00:46:24.920
<v Speaker 2>up greatly like this year. Honestly, Dave, did you think

1014
00:46:25.480 --> 00:46:29.000
<v Speaker 2>Arizona had a chance to win the national title this year? Okay, exactly,

1015
00:46:29.000 --> 00:46:30.679
<v Speaker 2>so it was the window open or kind of open,

1016
00:46:30.760 --> 00:46:33.199
<v Speaker 2>or even of open.

1017
00:46:33.519 --> 00:46:34.639
<v Speaker 3>Wah, right.

1018
00:46:34.679 --> 00:46:37.039
<v Speaker 2>But next year, if these guys come back, how why

1019
00:46:37.079 --> 00:46:40.519
<v Speaker 2>does that open? And probably as wide open as you've

1020
00:46:40.519 --> 00:46:41.199
<v Speaker 2>seen it in a while.

1021
00:46:41.320 --> 00:46:43.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean if those guys is if the freshmen

1022
00:46:43.039 --> 00:46:45.440
<v Speaker 4>are as good as advertised. The don't always know that,

1023
00:46:46.079 --> 00:46:48.480
<v Speaker 4>but yeah, again, they seem to have a little bit

1024
00:46:48.519 --> 00:46:51.119
<v Speaker 4>of a nucleus coming back, and who knows about Carter Bryant.

1025
00:46:51.559 --> 00:46:53.960
<v Speaker 3>But but this is right there, this.

1026
00:46:54.039 --> 00:46:57.000
<v Speaker 2>Is super scar he does come back, that window that

1027
00:46:57.039 --> 00:46:59.480
<v Speaker 2>you better hit that window because that window doesn't come

1028
00:46:59.519 --> 00:47:00.400
<v Speaker 2>around too often.

1029
00:47:00.480 --> 00:47:03.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that window with those kind of players and the

1030
00:47:03.519 --> 00:47:06.239
<v Speaker 4>freshman coming in, that's a pretty good little, you know

1031
00:47:06.320 --> 00:47:08.039
<v Speaker 4>group to build around, right for them?

1032
00:47:08.079 --> 00:47:08.800
<v Speaker 3>Maybe one year?

1033
00:47:09.000 --> 00:47:09.119
<v Speaker 5>Right?

1034
00:47:09.159 --> 00:47:11.119
<v Speaker 2>No, No, that could be it, Yeah, because then guess

1035
00:47:11.119 --> 00:47:12.440
<v Speaker 2>what you have to start all over again.

1036
00:47:12.480 --> 00:47:14.599
<v Speaker 3>We made three of those guys take off next year,

1037
00:47:14.639 --> 00:47:15.039
<v Speaker 3>that's it.

1038
00:47:15.000 --> 00:47:17.280
<v Speaker 2>Could be the end of it. And if not, they're thinking, God,

1039
00:47:17.320 --> 00:47:19.079
<v Speaker 2>if we could just have these guys come back, blah

1040
00:47:19.079 --> 00:47:21.039
<v Speaker 2>blah blah. Well you can only have that for so

1041
00:47:21.079 --> 00:47:22.639
<v Speaker 2>many years because it doesn't happen.

1042
00:47:22.760 --> 00:47:23.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

1043
00:47:23.480 --> 00:47:26.119
<v Speaker 4>Well, if the nil and these in this uh you know,

1044
00:47:26.159 --> 00:47:30.159
<v Speaker 4>house committee money is as advertised, some of these guys

1045
00:47:30.360 --> 00:47:32.559
<v Speaker 4>will maybe stick around for an extra year because the

1046
00:47:32.559 --> 00:47:35.119
<v Speaker 4>money is going to be better in college sure than

1047
00:47:35.159 --> 00:47:37.159
<v Speaker 4>going to the G League or going you know, right

1048
00:47:37.159 --> 00:47:38.960
<v Speaker 4>in the first round or in the second round where

1049
00:47:38.960 --> 00:47:40.000
<v Speaker 4>you're not guaranteed anything.

1050
00:47:40.800 --> 00:47:43.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well, it'll help every school, not just here too.

1051
00:47:43.639 --> 00:47:46.159
<v Speaker 2>So windows of opportunity. It's like Duke will have that

1052
00:47:46.199 --> 00:47:48.719
<v Speaker 2>window all the time. The Kansas is if they play

1053
00:47:48.719 --> 00:47:50.360
<v Speaker 2>their cards right now, Florida is going to be an

1054
00:47:50.440 --> 00:47:53.639
<v Speaker 2>up and coming team Houston's been fantastic. So the Riches,

1055
00:47:54.480 --> 00:47:58.079
<v Speaker 2>the the uh rich, rich and richer exactly, exactly, and

1056
00:47:58.119 --> 00:48:00.920
<v Speaker 2>Arizona's trying to become that rich again. It hasn't been

1057
00:48:00.960 --> 00:48:01.559
<v Speaker 2>rich in a while.

1058
00:48:01.840 --> 00:48:05.960
<v Speaker 4>No, but it's still pretty good still top twenty.

1059
00:48:06.280 --> 00:48:08.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, right right, no, no, no, I won't disagree with that,

1060
00:48:08.719 --> 00:48:10.800
<v Speaker 2>but there was a point where you top twenty is

1061
00:48:10.840 --> 00:48:13.920
<v Speaker 2>not the top ten, yeah, and it needs to get

1062
00:48:13.960 --> 00:48:16.960
<v Speaker 2>back to that point even now. What they started eleven

1063
00:48:17.000 --> 00:48:18.639
<v Speaker 2>twelve in the beginning of the year something like that,

1064
00:48:18.679 --> 00:48:21.360
<v Speaker 2>and they finished fifteen, number nine in the top ten,

1065
00:48:21.400 --> 00:48:25.119
<v Speaker 2>and then he didn't end there. But they like to

1066
00:48:25.159 --> 00:48:26.800
<v Speaker 2>be realistic and that's why I asked you the question,

1067
00:48:27.000 --> 00:48:29.679
<v Speaker 2>did you think that that window was doable for the

1068
00:48:29.760 --> 00:48:33.000
<v Speaker 2>national title? You didn't think that. I didn't think that.

1069
00:48:33.239 --> 00:48:35.760
<v Speaker 2>But over the last twenty years, how many times you

1070
00:48:35.800 --> 00:48:39.400
<v Speaker 2>think that that window was available? Maybe three? A couple

1071
00:48:39.440 --> 00:48:43.159
<v Speaker 2>of Shawn's teams, maybe a Tommy team when he first

1072
00:48:43.159 --> 00:48:45.599
<v Speaker 2>got year, and they played out of their mind with

1073
00:48:45.639 --> 00:48:48.519
<v Speaker 2>the with Shawn's guys and they lost to Houston. I mean,

1074
00:48:48.880 --> 00:48:51.480
<v Speaker 2>those windows don't happen very often. Yeah, you know, hell,

1075
00:48:51.679 --> 00:48:53.320
<v Speaker 2>it was one of the ninety seven. That window was

1076
00:48:53.360 --> 00:48:53.719
<v Speaker 2>not there.

1077
00:48:53.800 --> 00:48:55.320
<v Speaker 3>No, there was no window there, No.

1078
00:48:55.119 --> 00:48:57.000
<v Speaker 2>No ninety eight. Guess what that window was there?

1079
00:48:57.079 --> 00:48:57.519
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

1080
00:48:57.559 --> 00:49:00.519
<v Speaker 2>And how did that go? Right? So have they'll have

1081
00:49:00.519 --> 00:49:06.440
<v Speaker 2>a as they say, magic luck, no injuries. A lot

1082
00:49:06.440 --> 00:49:07.840
<v Speaker 2>of things have to go your way, have to happen,

1083
00:49:07.920 --> 00:49:09.360
<v Speaker 2>The schedule has to break in your favor.

1084
00:49:09.599 --> 00:49:11.880
<v Speaker 4>A couple of episodes, especially in the tournament. You know,

1085
00:49:11.880 --> 00:49:13.760
<v Speaker 4>when you wind up having to play a twelve seed

1086
00:49:13.800 --> 00:49:16.239
<v Speaker 4>instead of a five seed in one of those kind

1087
00:49:16.280 --> 00:49:20.119
<v Speaker 4>of games. Things sometimes managed to work them work themselves out.

1088
00:49:20.159 --> 00:49:22.000
<v Speaker 3>It happened to you. I think was the one year.

1089
00:49:22.000 --> 00:49:23.719
<v Speaker 3>I think it was maybe even the rust penalty year.

1090
00:49:23.920 --> 00:49:24.519
<v Speaker 2>It was the word.

1091
00:49:24.880 --> 00:49:26.039
<v Speaker 4>You know, all of a sudden they get to the

1092
00:49:26.079 --> 00:49:28.599
<v Speaker 4>sweet sixteen because there was a big upset in the second.

1093
00:49:28.599 --> 00:49:30.360
<v Speaker 2>Cleveland State I think, beat the Utah or something like that.

1094
00:49:31.480 --> 00:49:33.960
<v Speaker 2>Whatever was nextcond on how Arizona's in the sweet sixtees, right,

1095
00:49:34.280 --> 00:49:36.760
<v Speaker 2>it didn't deserve to be then they got destroyed by Louisville.

1096
00:49:37.440 --> 00:49:41.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah and Patino yeah right, right, but you had

1097
00:49:41.760 --> 00:49:44.000
<v Speaker 2>to sweet sixteen appearance, right, and for a season that

1098
00:49:44.079 --> 00:49:46.159
<v Speaker 2>was kind of up and down throughout the whole year. Yeah,

1099
00:49:46.239 --> 00:49:48.480
<v Speaker 2>and they kind of finished strongly. The funny thing about

1100
00:49:48.519 --> 00:49:51.000
<v Speaker 2>that year is people said, well, Arizona's in a down year.

1101
00:49:51.599 --> 00:49:53.840
<v Speaker 2>They got to the sweet sixteen folks with a bunch

1102
00:49:53.920 --> 00:49:58.239
<v Speaker 2>of assistant coaches pretty much, right, there were assistant coaches

1103
00:49:58.280 --> 00:50:00.920
<v Speaker 2>to Lot when he left, right, that's right, That's why
