tuned if you'd like to chime in on some of

20
00:00:45,759 --> 00:00:48,039
our questions and polls today. Rob right third, I don't

21
00:00:48,039 --> 00:00:50,840
think we've ever seen anything like Rob Wright ever in

22
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,280
BAU basketball. He's at the former Fashion which he plays.

23
00:00:53,759 --> 00:00:57,240
He's an elite ball handle, I believe, and twitches all

24
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,719
get out, a superior athlete, very raft in the way,

25
00:01:00,759 --> 00:01:03,320
in the form and fashion which he scores, and he's

26
00:01:03,359 --> 00:01:06,239
become I think an elite shooter as well. We saw

27
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,799
that efficiency on display at the Merriage Center versus Colorado

28
00:01:09,879 --> 00:01:12,680
as he almost dropped a forty piece of forty burger

29
00:01:12,799 --> 00:01:16,200
on the buffs. It was fantastic the way he led

30
00:01:16,599 --> 00:01:19,000
on the floor. You know who's your player comp though?

31
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,920
For rob right the third, My guy Vick Ramp, says

32
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:25,760
Isaiah Thomas, the og Isaiah Thomas from the Detroit Pistons.

33
00:01:26,519 --> 00:01:28,879
My guy Ronald the three man Weaver said, you said

34
00:01:28,879 --> 00:01:30,480
Tyas it was at tyas.

35
00:01:30,519 --> 00:01:34,079
Speaker 3: Sure Jalen Brunson's physicality and Tyas jones playmaking ability.

36
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:34,519

43

right the third, take us through your career performance.

49
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 4: Honestly, you just felt good to need to win. I

50
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:08,639
mean they were dublin AJ so I was just playing

51
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,639
off him, making shots early and just got rolling. Then

52
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,080
when Richie went down, we knew somebody to step up,

53
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:14,960
so I guess it was meet to day.

54
00:02:16,039 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: Indeed it was. It was one of the most prolific

55
00:02:19,479 --> 00:02:20,919
scoring Uh.

56
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,479
Speaker 2: I think experiences that by you have BYU fans have

57
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:25,719
ever experienced.

58
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,159
Speaker 1: From a point guard.

59
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 2: And I guess it's a It was on point because

60
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,400
Jimmer Jimmer Fourdette was in attendance. That was Jim or

61
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:37,560
esque from a volume standpoint and an efficiency standpoint, Rob,

62
00:02:37,879 --> 00:02:40,960
what does Richie Saunders mean to this team?

63
00:02:41,479 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 5: He's a lot.

64
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,680
Speaker 4: I mean he's our hardest worker, supertised player, so I

65
00:02:45,719 --> 00:02:47,120
mean hopefully got a back.

66
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,599
Speaker 1: I asked the question earlier in the show.

67
00:02:51,319 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 2: How have your expectations changed for this BAU basketball team

68
00:02:55,159 --> 00:02:57,479
now that Richie Saunders is out for the season with.

69
00:02:57,479 --> 00:02:58,479
Speaker 1: An ACL tear.

70
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,319
Speaker 2: Right, this is a this is difficult, right, What has

71
00:03:02,439 --> 00:03:06,960
changed about your expectations, Garrett SF Garrett says, Yeah, now

72
00:03:07,039 --> 00:03:10,039
I expect a six seed at best, but more like

73
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:10,719
a seven to.

74
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,719
Speaker 1: Eight seed when it's all said and done.

75
00:03:12,759 --> 00:03:16,039
Speaker 2: So just getting to be getting to the round of

76
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:20,680
thirty two is my expectation. True Blue Cougar official says

77
00:03:20,759 --> 00:03:23,520
the loss of such a pillar of the team is painful.

78
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,120
He will be sorely missed. Despite that, there may be

79
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,120
some good that comes from it. A new twist in

80
00:03:30,159 --> 00:03:35,199
the lineup, may have interesting opportunities, may provide interesting opportunities.

81
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 1: Josh h or sorry.

82
00:03:37,919 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 2: Josh s Carbon MFG says, I think they find a way.

83
00:03:42,479 --> 00:03:46,360
The worry is when it takes time to get for

84
00:03:46,479 --> 00:03:49,840
players to gel that are out of the rotation. I

85
00:03:49,879 --> 00:03:52,159
don't think they are done yet. AJ's an amazing talent,

86
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,719
Rob is on fire. We need three more to tap

87
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,000
their potential and give us a late run. El Skippity

88
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,800
Bandido says they'll be lucky if they get to the

89
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:02,759
sweet sixteen. I mean look, I'd be happy if they

90
00:04:02,759 --> 00:04:04,840
get to the Sweet sixteen. You kidd me, I'd be

91
00:04:04,879 --> 00:04:07,199
elated if they get back to the Sweet sixteen. How

92
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,560
have your expectations change at all, Ronald three man Weaver.

93
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 3: This team should still be a Sweet sixteen team without

94
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,959
Richie Saunders. I don't think this team can get any

95
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,240
further without Richie than that.

96
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 6: Ben, I think it's very difficult and.

97
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:24,399
Speaker 3: Less guys step up, right unless Alexi coaches starts hitting

98
00:04:24,439 --> 00:04:27,720
tough shots like that, unless Canard continues to attack the basket,

99
00:04:27,879 --> 00:04:29,759
Beato plays like that. If they play like that, Ben,

100
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,639
They're gonna be able to compete. But everybody has to contribute,

101
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,639
because look what you saw on Saturday. Yes, it might

102
00:04:35,639 --> 00:04:37,240
not have been the most formidable opponent, but if they

103
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,959
play like that, Ben, that way against a good team

104
00:04:39,959 --> 00:04:41,279
like that, is able to put up eighty six to

105
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,519
win a ball game. But to me, I think with

106
00:04:44,519 --> 00:04:49,279
Rob and AJ that's still enough to still get to

107
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,000
the Sweet sixteen. But I think that's as further as

108
00:04:52,079 --> 00:04:53,519
far as they get to be able to compete for

109
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:54,759
that Elite eight opportunity.

110
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 6: I don't know. Now We'll say this.

111
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,439
Speaker 1: Ben, their ceiling is sweet sixteen.

112
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 6: The ceiling is sweet sixteen.

113
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 3: I will say this though, We're about to find out

114
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,160
if Aj Debon Say is the number one pick truly

115
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:09,040
and if Rob Right is a first round pick like late.

116
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,839
We're gonna find that out because they have the ability

117
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,920
ben to be able to do that. They do their offensibility,

118
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,959
their skill set, their playmaking ability, they can now all

119
00:05:17,959 --> 00:05:19,600
the guys around them need to be able to play

120
00:05:19,639 --> 00:05:22,519
their roles too. But you heard Aj challenge like you

121
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,199
got to read between the lines. I would like to

122
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:25,639
see Moose step up, you know, and make a few

123
00:05:25,639 --> 00:05:27,519
more shots. I would like to when you hear guys

124
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,000
saying that, you know, that gives not me confidence, but

125
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,480
I should give the team confidence of they still believe,

126
00:05:33,519 --> 00:05:35,319
like when you see Rob posting it ain't done yet.

127
00:05:35,319 --> 00:05:37,240
Like these guys that played in the biggest moments, the

128
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,639
foul calls that they're not getting been they're gonna get

129
00:05:39,639 --> 00:05:41,920
in the tournament. So that might change the momentum these

130
00:05:41,959 --> 00:05:45,319
forty burgers that we're seeing these thirty point games. That's gonna,

131
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,439
you know, turn itself in the tournament when you're able

132
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,920
to have momentum. So right now, it's a chance for

133
00:05:49,959 --> 00:05:51,879
the role players to be able to go get confident,

134
00:05:51,959 --> 00:05:54,199
like you go still a win on the road against Arizona.

135
00:05:54,199 --> 00:05:55,360
If you're able to do that, or if you're able

136
00:05:55,399 --> 00:05:57,360
to beat Iowa State at home, that should give you

137
00:05:57,399 --> 00:05:59,959
a lot of confidence going into the tournament, because guys,

138
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,360
that's what the Big twelve conference ben prepares you for

139
00:06:02,439 --> 00:06:04,879
March Madness. The season that you played early in the

140
00:06:04,879 --> 00:06:07,879
non conference prepares you for March Madness. So I still

141
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,160
think that this team will be in the sweet sixteen

142
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,160
to compete for an Elite eight. But I would not

143
00:06:13,199 --> 00:06:15,279
be surprised if they did not make it pass them.

144
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,879
But that should still should be the expectation for fans.

145
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:19,839
I still think a five to six seed is in

146
00:06:19,879 --> 00:06:21,959
the mix because you have been you have a top

147
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:23,759
two pick, you have the best point guard that was

148
00:06:23,759 --> 00:06:26,399
in the transfer portal. They're still on your team that

149
00:06:26,439 --> 00:06:28,399
did not go away just because you lost one person.

150
00:06:28,439 --> 00:06:31,759
And look, can I be honest with you, what really changed? Like, Okay, yes,

151
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,480
haven't Richie out there? Doesn't make a difference. I don't

152
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,120
want to take away from that. But we saw in

153
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,240
the Baylor game, we saw in the Houston game that

154
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,240
he was on the scattering report. Maybe that makes it

155
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,399
easier for them to double AJ, But do things really

156
00:06:42,519 --> 00:06:44,720
change all the way. They were already doubling AG to

157
00:06:44,759 --> 00:06:47,079
begin with, even with Richie being on the floor. So

158
00:06:47,199 --> 00:06:49,680
now that just gives someone else an opportunity to step up.

159
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 6: So we'll see.

160
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,199
Speaker 3: But yes, in far as far as firepower, yes I

161
00:06:54,199 --> 00:06:54,959
think it changes.

162
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,079
Speaker 6: But to me, still sweet sixteen is what this team

163
00:06:57,079 --> 00:06:57,560
should be at.

164
00:06:57,639 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 2: Hey, Richie's playing thirty one minutes per game, fourty eight

165
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,920
point nine percent from the field, he's thirty seven point

166
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,800
six percent from the three point line, eighty one point

167
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,439
seven percent from the charity stripe, and he's getting to

168
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,680
the charity stripe almost five times per game. He's getting

169
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,959
almost he's getting four and a half to attempts per game.

170
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,560
Uh five point eight rebounds. That's where you're gonna see

171
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:21,480
a little bit of a drop off offensive second chance points.

172
00:07:21,639 --> 00:07:24,920
Remember many of those rebounds, at least two of them

173
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:29,439
per game are offensive rebounds. That's impressive, okay, and that's

174
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,199
gonna be tough to replace. I don't know who that is.

175
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,399
Two point one assists per game and one point seven

176
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,240
steals per game. He gets at his hands in passing lanes,

177
00:07:37,759 --> 00:07:38,959
not necessarily a shot.

178
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: Blocker on the perimeter.

179
00:07:39,759 --> 00:07:43,439
Speaker 2: But you know he's talling almost two steals per game

180
00:07:43,439 --> 00:07:44,560
and eighteen points.

181
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,879
Speaker 1: Ah man, it's gonna take three.

182
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 2: Dudes probably to make up for that, and so we

183
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:52,720
hope that happens.

184
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,079
Speaker 1: I'm in in in lign with you. I think the.

185
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:59,959
Speaker 2: Ceiling for this team is sweet sixteen, but my quote

186
00:08:00,079 --> 00:08:03,279
has changed. If they get to the round of thirty two,

187
00:08:03,279 --> 00:08:05,079
I'm like, look, all things considered, that's great.

188
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,519
Speaker 1: I mean I'd be disappointed.

189
00:08:07,879 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 2: I would not be disappointed if they get to the

190
00:08:09,639 --> 00:08:13,600
sweet sixteen and then they get bounced. That kind of like, hey, like,

191
00:08:13,639 --> 00:08:16,439
you know what, that's quota that I mean, it's not quota.

192
00:08:16,839 --> 00:08:18,800
That would be kind of overachieving in my mind to

193
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,319
get to sweet sixteen now without Richie?

194
00:08:21,879 --> 00:08:24,399
Speaker 1: But kay, why can do it? I believe in him,

195
00:08:24,439 --> 00:08:26,879
no doubt. How aj.

196
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,959
Speaker 2: Sorry, like it gets to number three? How was the

197
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:36,240
game different having Richie out? Rob right the third?

198
00:08:36,519 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 4: I mean having a guy like Richie out, I mean

199
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:40,960
it obviously hurt us. The game might have been closer

200
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,879
than it should have been, but I mean it was

201
00:08:42,919 --> 00:08:44,799
just good to pull it through in this next man.

202
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 2: Up next man up, he says, short and sweet, let's

203
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:50,840
get to aj AJ.

204
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 1: How confident are you in the bench guys right now?

205
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 5: Not super confident?

206
00:08:54,519 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 7: I mean I see these guys in practice, so you

207
00:08:56,519 --> 00:08:59,679
know Tonamrrow stepped up, like say, may y'all seen in

208
00:08:59,759 --> 00:09:01,519
NUM games that can come in and hit threes and

209
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:02,159
play defense.

210
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 5: You know, I'm super confident in those guys.

211
00:09:05,639 --> 00:09:09,399
Speaker 1: Super confident. Does Cougar Nation feel the same way? They

212
00:09:09,399 --> 00:09:09,679
do not.

213
00:09:10,039 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 2: They do not feel super confident in Tyler or Alexi.

214
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,360
Now those that get to the games early or get

215
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,759
to watch practice, the Cougar club levels that get to

216
00:09:19,799 --> 00:09:22,759
watch a little bit of basketball at the Merriott Center,

217
00:09:22,759 --> 00:09:25,919
Addicts or at the Merriott Center, they've seen Tyler in

218
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,000
Alexi and Mihailo shoot the ball.

219
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,559
Speaker 1: Well, they've seen it consistently.

220
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 2: H And you put them in through a session of

221
00:09:35,759 --> 00:09:38,679
one hundred, one hundred and fifty shots, they're gonna be

222
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,320
making a lot of those shots akin to what you

223
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:45,919
see from like a Richie Saunders. Okay, now can they

224
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,600
do it in games? Do they get a little bit

225
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,840
tight and the moment get can that get a little

226
00:09:51,879 --> 00:09:55,440
bit too big from one? But hopefully now that they

227
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,879
get more minutes, more opportunities they can they can maybe

228
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:03,519
get old that hump and find their groove. You hope

229
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:08,000
your fingers crossed. AJ believes in them, does cougarination. We'll

230
00:10:08,039 --> 00:10:12,600
see how the the the confidence develops in these next

231
00:10:12,639 --> 00:10:16,799
few weeks. Uh Aj, why do you like playing alongside

232
00:10:16,799 --> 00:10:17,679
Alecxi Coastick?

233
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,159
Speaker 5: And obviously I get double line draw a lot of attention.

234
00:10:23,279 --> 00:10:25,879
Speaker 7: So sometimes those past are super hard to make you

235
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:27,840
a cross court, but you just finds certain windows in

236
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,200
the past are super easy to get to them.

237
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:30,519
Speaker 1: There you go.

238
00:10:30,639 --> 00:10:33,759
Speaker 2: That's that's AJ's thoughts on Alexi. Where's your confidence level

239
00:10:33,759 --> 00:10:35,320
on election right now? Ronald the three man?

240
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean when you hit a big shot like that, Ben,

241
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,720
it's hard for me not to be confident you. And

242
00:10:40,759 --> 00:10:42,519
we heard the sound in the last segment taking that.

243
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,279
Sean Walker was the one to ask the question to

244
00:10:44,279 --> 00:10:46,759
the media. Was a great question that type of shots

245
00:10:46,799 --> 00:10:50,080
should like and people are gonna people just look at

246
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,559
all they're playing bad in this stretch, Like you gotta

247
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,480
look at the shots in the spacing on the floor.

248
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,279
Rob doesn't go to the paint because it's congestion. Colorado's

249
00:10:57,279 --> 00:10:58,720
playing really good defense too in the game. And you

250
00:10:58,799 --> 00:11:00,840
have to give them credit because not putting ag at

251
00:11:00,879 --> 00:11:04,039
the line and Alexi has to relocate really quickly. He

252
00:11:04,039 --> 00:11:06,000
has to back up, set his feet. He need a

253
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,240
phenomenal job. That's what shooters do. But that shot was contest.

254
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,120
That's a hard shot that h had been backpedaling Ben

255
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,679
to recover. They hit a shot like that. That gives

256
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,120
me a lot of confidence in the guy because when

257
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,320
you're wide open, it's like it should be a layup

258
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,840
for you. And if you're hitting shots like that, that's

259
00:11:21,879 --> 00:11:23,960
the key. Look Ben, I'm gonna say at the three

260
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,279
point shot, do or die? Now is the time that

261
00:11:26,279 --> 00:11:28,720
they needed. So Alexi coaches and I think Tyler Moruss

262
00:11:29,039 --> 00:11:32,519
are the pivotal pieces to unlock BYU going further in

263
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,000
the tournament. To get these wins, they have to play better.

264
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,240
We know that Boopa is gonna come in, and we

265
00:11:37,279 --> 00:11:39,679
know that Bet who's gonna do his thing. Like outside

266
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:43,840
of that offensive like production, you need Alexi, you need Tyler,

267
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:45,879
and you need Knar to step up.

268
00:11:45,919 --> 00:11:48,320
Speaker 6: They have to hit threes, they have to hit shots.

269
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 3: You want to talk about offensive rebounds, Been I was

270
00:11:50,039 --> 00:11:52,039
listening to you and I was really thinking about it

271
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,360
and just watching the games. Canard has done really well

272
00:11:54,399 --> 00:11:56,759
of attacking the glass. He's the guy I think that

273
00:11:56,799 --> 00:11:59,240
has to replace Richie. I think that's his thing. Alexis

274
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,840
played phenomenal. I think defensively the last couple of times.

275
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,200
They have to build on that. So I've seen it

276
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,600
from these guys. I'm confident they can do it. Here's

277
00:12:06,639 --> 00:12:08,840
the thing. You gotta get it early. You remember last

278
00:12:08,879 --> 00:12:11,159
year when they play in Arizona. Yes, Canny catching is

279
00:12:11,159 --> 00:12:11,720
do with Georgia.

280
00:12:11,759 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 6: What happened.

281
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,799
Speaker 3: Cannon hit his first two shots and then they got rolling.

282
00:12:15,039 --> 00:12:17,200
Guys got confident, what hit the shots. You need to

283
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,720
see the same thing. If Alexi and Tyler can hit shots,

284
00:12:19,759 --> 00:12:21,879
get confident early and take the air out of the building.

285
00:12:22,399 --> 00:12:25,320
That will build late down the stretch because the ball

286
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,200
is gonna be in AJ's hands to make a decision.

287
00:12:28,519 --> 00:12:31,559
Speaker 2: Let's get back to the sound bites. Aj, you had

288
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,559
thirteen rebounds. How are you able to be effective.

289
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 1: In that portion of the game when shots just aren't falling.

290
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 7: I mean that was the thing right there, like you

291
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,000
know rebound and I think you know my dad he's

292
00:12:41,039 --> 00:12:43,039
right there, he telling me I don't rebound a lot.

293
00:12:44,159 --> 00:12:45,960
So I came in here and just wanted to prove

294
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,559
during that and rebound, but also like shots weren't falling,

295
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,320
so I was trying to make sure that if the

296
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:51,799
other team missed the shot, that they don't get any

297
00:12:51,799 --> 00:12:52,919
second chance opportunities.

298
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 1: I love that he calls out his dad.

299
00:12:58,159 --> 00:13:00,919
Speaker 2: You can tell Ash is one of It's obviously AJ's

300
00:13:00,919 --> 00:13:05,320
biggest fan and critic there, and he's also the biggest critic,

301
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,879
and he's always in ajzre Obviously, you're not rebounding enough.

302
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,960
You're not You're not rebounding enough. You're not rebounding enough.

303
00:13:12,399 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: You got thirteen though. Man, there's a lot of rebounds, bro.

304
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,200
I mean, come on, give the guy a little bit

305
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:19,639
of love.

306
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,879
Speaker 2: There's some improvement there. He's rounding out his game. If

307
00:13:23,919 --> 00:13:27,360
shots aren't falling, then find another way to make an

308
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,639
impact on the game. And I think AJ did that.

309
00:13:30,039 --> 00:13:31,720
I think he did that on the defense side and

310
00:13:31,759 --> 00:13:32,639
the offense side of the ball.

311
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,960
Speaker 1: There. Okay, a few more.

312
00:13:34,799 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 2: Sound bites, you're Aj, where's by you at defensively as

313
00:13:38,039 --> 00:13:38,840
a team right now?

314
00:13:39,759 --> 00:13:42,519
Speaker 5: Definitely a lot to improve on, but it's been better.

315
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:44,200
It has been better than that four games chests that

316
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:44,440
we had.

317
00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:45,799
Speaker 7: I think that was kind of the main reason why

318
00:13:45,799 --> 00:13:47,759
we are losing games because the right defensive lapses.

319
00:13:48,759 --> 00:13:51,519
Speaker 5: I mean, Sartain guy's another team. I think Johnson got hot.

320
00:13:51,919 --> 00:13:54,799
Speaker 7: I don't think he should have got some some threes off,

321
00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:57,440
you know, hard this should have got some threes off.

322
00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 5: But it's life. But we're RealD justin.

323
00:14:01,399 --> 00:14:05,440
Speaker 2: It's even when Byu was healthy. This wasn't a an

324
00:14:05,519 --> 00:14:08,440
elite defensive team. They've been They've been good at times.

325
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,000
They've been good at times. They've even been great at times,

326
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,840
but more often than not, they're above average or even average,

327
00:14:13,879 --> 00:14:18,480
it seems, so hopefully they continue to improve down the

328
00:14:18,519 --> 00:14:19,320
stretch though.

329
00:14:19,399 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 1: A j Well prior to b why you what did

330
00:14:23,759 --> 00:14:26,519
you guys know about Jim or for dead?

331
00:14:28,039 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 7: All I know is that he was him about it.

332
00:14:32,759 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 4: I kind of heard he was like one of the

333
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:40,720
best players, player crazy. I don't know.

334
00:14:40,759 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 5: I've actually never met him in person.

335
00:14:41,919 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've never met him either. He's here.

336
00:14:48,159 --> 00:14:49,679
Speaker 5: Probably I probably see him side.

337
00:14:51,399 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 1: Okay, so he was him, It's all I know. You'm

338
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:55,639
gonna realize.

339
00:14:55,639 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 2: I mean, it doesn't seem that long ago that jimmer

340
00:14:57,279 --> 00:14:59,639
Mania was occurring in provo like we're like all these

341
00:14:59,679 --> 00:15:01,519
all of the U old heads are like all of us.

342
00:15:01,759 --> 00:15:04,960
The unks in the room were like, dude, it's just

343
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,080
it's just a few years.

344
00:15:06,919 --> 00:15:09,879
Speaker 1: Ago, you know, you know what I mean.

345
00:15:09,879 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 2: We're like, wait, but so Rob and Agent were like

346
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:15,320
four or five years old.

347
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 6: With that's crazy.

348
00:15:16,919 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 2: So they did not experience this, right, they hear they're

349
00:15:21,159 --> 00:15:24,840
not watching mixtapes of Jimmer for dead. Nothing's showing up

350
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,679
on their timeline about Jim or Mania. No, no, no,

351
00:15:27,759 --> 00:15:30,679
the highly I mean it's not if it's not high

352
00:15:30,759 --> 00:15:34,840
definition Chris video. They're they're scrolling right by it on

353
00:15:34,879 --> 00:15:38,200
their on their social media feed. They should watch it,

354
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,399
though they ain't watching. That is too blurry. They can't

355
00:15:40,399 --> 00:15:42,240
even make out the name on the on the jersey.

356
00:15:42,279 --> 00:15:45,039
They can barely make out the number on the jersey.

357
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:46,440
They's scrolling right by that.

358
00:15:46,639 --> 00:15:51,759
Speaker 1: Guys. So uh they we we all, is what I'm

359
00:15:51,799 --> 00:15:52,200
getting at.

360
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,039
Speaker 6: The why and where were from?

361
00:15:54,039 --> 00:15:54,240
Speaker 5: Where?

362
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 3: I can't say those certain words over the air, but

363
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,879
the young that's what they Because I was in high

364
00:15:58,919 --> 00:16:01,679
school with Jimmer popped off, so that should tell you

365
00:16:01,759 --> 00:16:02,799
something that I'm young.

366
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,000
Speaker 6: So they definitely were younger.

367
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, indeed. Okay, uh, but hey, he was him.

368
00:16:09,159 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 2: He was him, he says, uh, and he was jimmer

369
00:16:12,279 --> 00:16:15,759
Mania was just an iconic and singular era of college basketball.

370
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,120
I don't think anything will replicate it.

371
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:19,799
Speaker 1: Ever. Why do we give a.

372
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:21,960

Speaker 1: Just put him away, put him away.

384
00:16:46,039 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 2: Sweep the leg, as they say, I know, victims, I'm ting.

385
00:16:49,759 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 1: To sweep the leg. Put him away. It's from Karate Kid,

386
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,440
the original Get the Leg.

387
00:16:56,159 --> 00:16:58,759
Speaker 2: Got a problem with that? No sense say, No sense?

388
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:05,000
Said film indeed one of the best ever. Rob Wright,

389
00:17:05,519 --> 00:17:07,799
break down your pass to Alexi that led to that

390
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:09,039
beautiful three point shot.

391
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:11,200
Speaker 5: His guy helped in.

392
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,400
Speaker 4: And when I went to do my move, I just

393
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,359
felt that the paint was too congesticue so I looked

394
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,200
out and he like was reglokan to the three point

395
00:17:17,279 --> 00:17:19,160
nine that he made a shot he makes all the time.

396
00:17:19,279 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 2: So look, Aj and Rob are continually talking about Alexi

397
00:17:25,759 --> 00:17:27,880
hitting shots in practice. He hits them all the time,

398
00:17:28,279 --> 00:17:30,480
and Tyler Morriss hits them all the time. They got

399
00:17:30,599 --> 00:17:33,240
him in the games and Alexi, I mean he was

400
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,440
he did not hesitate. The great thing about that, like

401
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,279
Alexi's stroke. I like Alexi's mechanics more than I like

402
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:44,079
Tyler Morriss's. I like Alexi's mechanics more than I like

403
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,839
me Hi Lows. I like, there's not a player on

404
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:52,599
this roster whose mechanics I like better than Alexi. When

405
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,480
I watch Alexi suit, I'm like, that is a pure

406
00:17:55,559 --> 00:17:57,440
stroke that should go in.

407
00:17:57,720 --> 00:17:58,440
Speaker 1: Does that make sense?

408
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:02,160
Speaker 2: Guys like, yeah, it's it's a silky, smooth, crisp release.

409
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,599
If I'm going like, and I hope I'm right, Like

410
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:08,599
I could be wrong and Joonatan time and I would

411
00:18:08,599 --> 00:18:09,759
be like, you don't know, ball whatever.

412
00:18:10,279 --> 00:18:11,880
Speaker 1: He's always willing to say that to me.

413
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 2: I'm like, when I watch Alexi, I see a guy

414
00:18:15,839 --> 00:18:16,839
with tremendous potential.

415
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:20,079
Speaker 1: I like his handle. I think he's he's developing athletically.

416
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,119
I like his length. He's six' four and he's got

417
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,359
some girth to. Him he's got some density to. HIM

418
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,079
i Like. ALEXI i, want If i'm going to bank

419
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:30,079
on anybody.

420
00:18:29,759 --> 00:18:33,319
Speaker 2: Right, now to fill some, shoes fill the massive shoes Of.

421
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,759
Richie i'm hoping it's election. Now will he be an

422
00:18:35,759 --> 00:18:38,400
offensive rebounder Like. Richie, no he doesn't have as much,

423
00:18:38,559 --> 00:18:41,480
length BUT i think he can be just as good

424
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,599
as a. DEFENDER i hope he can be good on

425
00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:46,039
the defensive rebounding side of. Things AND i think he

426
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:47,799
can be a shot maker, TOO i really. Do AND

427
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,440
i actually Think alexi has a decent handle, TOO i really.

428
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:52,839
DO i just think he needs a little bit more

429
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:57,559
confidence my opinion Of. Alexi So rob AND, aj we're

430
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,640
pretty adamant That alexi can be make an. IMPACT i

431
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,880
hope he. Can that's What i'm making on right. NOW,

432
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,240
aj what are your thoughts on the rematch AGAINST u OF. A.

433
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:07,240
Speaker 7: YEAH i MEAN i think we should have wont to

434
00:19:07,279 --> 00:19:10,319
went at. HOME i think was really hurt us some

435
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,440
defensive lapses that we shouldn't have. Had, SO i mean

436
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,599
we're coming in, Ready we're gonna Have Scott report, ready

437
00:19:14,599 --> 00:19:16,680
were gonna trust the staff and go get A winnan.

438
00:19:16,559 --> 00:19:20,400
Speaker 1: Mckill gotta get a. Dub it would be.

439
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,720

00:19:22,839 --> 00:19:25,279
Does it erases all the follies there were rass all,

441
00:19:25,839 --> 00:19:28,559
races all the. Shortcomings if you BEAT u OF, A i,

442
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,640
mean you ve's one of the best teams in college,

443
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,759
basketball maybe the best team in college. BASKETBALL i know

444
00:19:32,839 --> 00:19:36,319
they they, lost, right and they've had some, close close,

445
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,880
games et. Cetera but, uh when they're, healthy they're they're

446
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,319
one of the, best if not the best team in college.

447
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,759
Speaker 3: Basketball so Question, ben, then if they Beat arizona and

448
00:19:45,839 --> 00:19:48,359
they Beat Iowa, state what would that mean for this?

449
00:19:48,559 --> 00:19:51,400
Program BECAUSE i, mean if you do that this, WEEK

450
00:19:52,519 --> 00:19:54,000
i think it will be a head scratch of the people, Like,

451
00:19:54,039 --> 00:19:54,559
okay well.

452
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:54,920
Speaker 1: Where was that?

453
00:19:55,039 --> 00:19:58,039
Speaker 3: Earlier you, know when you Played arizona And, kansas, Right

454
00:19:58,319 --> 00:20:00,680
because it will be Without, richie it will.

455
00:20:02,079 --> 00:20:04,359
Speaker 2: WELL i think what will happen is they're gonna have

456
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:10,240
a portion of the fan base that Says richie's skill

457
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,559
set and who he was as a player really didn't

458
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,000
mesh all that well as well as it could.

459
00:20:16,079 --> 00:20:19,599
Speaker 1: Have with WITH aj And rob right the. Third that's

460
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:20,160
what they're gonna.

461
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:24,839
Speaker 2: Say so IF byu finds a way to beat you

462
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:31,000
of a to Beat Iowa, state And tyler And alexi

463
00:20:31,319 --> 00:20:35,039
And mahilo and others step up in a big way

464
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:36,799
and hit shots, right.

465
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 1: What they're gonna say, is, look the skill sets of.

466
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 2: These guys as catch and shoot players that aren't turning

467
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,640
the ball over and are playing solid defense are better

468
00:20:46,799 --> 00:20:49,920
than What richie was. Providing, Now richie could be a

469
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,680
catch and shoot guy, Too there's no doubt about, it

470
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,039
and you know he can spot up from anywhere with

471
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:56,160
his lightning quick.

472
00:20:56,279 --> 00:20:58,640
Speaker 1: Release but you're.

473
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,440
Speaker 2: Gonna get some people that, say look Like richie just

474
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:05,480
didn't mesh as well as he is as they they

475
00:21:05,599 --> 00:21:07,720
thought he would WITH aj And rob on the, floor

476
00:21:07,759 --> 00:21:10,960
Because rob AND aj are primary ball, handlers and you

477
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,319
can make an argument That richie is also a primary

478
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,519
ball handler and not just a catch and shoot guy

479
00:21:15,599 --> 00:21:20,000
Like trevinell was a season. Ago i'm waiting to, See,

480
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:21,960
LIKE i don't Think bally is gonna be better Without.

481
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 1: RICHIE i just.

482
00:21:22,759 --> 00:21:26,759
Speaker 2: Don't but if they suddenly, are you're gonna have plenty

483
00:21:26,799 --> 00:21:29,119
of individuals to, say, look it just didn't work With

484
00:21:29,319 --> 00:21:32,440
richie because he was also a primary ball. Handler took

485
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,519
the ball out OF aj And rob's. Hands let's get

486
00:21:34,559 --> 00:21:36,559
to the final. Thing if you guys are Without ritchie

487
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,319
for a, while what's the confidence level in guys stepping?

488
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 7: Up, No, yeah it's definitely hard because you, know he

489
00:21:42,839 --> 00:21:45,720
brings so much shot, making he brings so much offensive,

490
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,680
rebounding defensive, rebounding and just he was just Like, logali

491
00:21:48,839 --> 00:21:51,400
like our vocal, leader you, know on the. Team But

492
00:21:51,799 --> 00:21:53,519
i'm gonna have confidence in the guys to step. UP

493
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,000
i Think luken step up some, more hit some. Shots

494
00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:00,039
TYLER mei came off the. BENCH i think everybody just a,

495
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:01,480
chance and everybody's gonna step into their.

496
00:22:01,519 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 1: Rules he's He's Leonel. Mu MoU had thirty nine.

497
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 2: Minutes, Obviously Kay wise has been very patient With MoU

498
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:13,079
offensively because he puts fourth good. Effort on the defensive,

499
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,839
End there's no doubt sometimes he's a good. Rebounder probably

500
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,039
needs to to take it off the bounce a few

501
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:20,960
times a game and just get to the free throw

502
00:22:21,039 --> 00:22:24,039
line and maybe take some some close range shots to

503
00:22:24,079 --> 00:22:26,400
get into a groove rather than just taking the automatic

504
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,720
THREE i don't like his. MECHANICS i just don't like.

505
00:22:29,799 --> 00:22:31,039
HIM i know he's hit in the, past and he

506
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:32,559
was a good shooter last. YEAR i, ASKED i you

507
00:22:32,799 --> 00:22:35,640
before anyone was actually guarding, him it seemed and and

508
00:22:35,759 --> 00:22:37,519
you know, WHAT i need to check tape on. That quite,

509
00:22:37,559 --> 00:22:40,359
honestly Maybe canard was taking shots off the bounce and

510
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,200
that's where he feels past rather than in a in

511
00:22:43,319 --> 00:22:44,200
a catch and shoot.

512
00:22:44,279 --> 00:22:47,759
Speaker 1: Role but IF aj believes in, him you know, what

513
00:22:48,279 --> 00:22:49,079
MAYBE i need to believe.

514
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:50,440
Speaker 6: It CAN i bring up his plus minus.

515
00:22:50,519 --> 00:22:53,119
Speaker 3: Minute, still he's been phenomenal when he doesn't, foul and

516
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:54,599
you could say it for a lot of player Like, No, No,

517
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,400
Ben when he doesn't, foul he's a. Phenomenal you were

518
00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,920
watching the, game remember the pass where he's wide opening the.

519
00:23:00,079 --> 00:23:01,599
Speaker 6: Corner what does he? Do who does he kick it?

520
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:03,880
Speaker 3: To he, said, no mylo, boom not even not even

521
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,480
a thought, process, Right and WHAT i love about him

522
00:23:06,559 --> 00:23:08,680
and the coaches have much have told him Something, ben

523
00:23:09,079 --> 00:23:11,720
because now he's attacking the, basket which he wasn't doing

524
00:23:11,799 --> 00:23:14,519
like three weeks. Ago he's driving and then waiting and then,

525
00:23:14,559 --> 00:23:17,279
okay go to a j and. Reset he's they've told him.

526
00:23:17,319 --> 00:23:19,799
Something but the way he's played in the last two

527
00:23:19,839 --> 00:23:22,319
WEEKS i have. LIKED i know it's not been against

528
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:24,720
the most formidable, opponents but when you're able to not

529
00:23:24,839 --> 00:23:27,240
foul and stay on the floor like, that and and

530
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,200
that's the thing people can, Say, oh he did, Nothing,

531
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:31,559
no he did a lot, Actually AND i think that's the.

532
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:33,559
Thing you Need canard to stay out of foul. Trouble

533
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:35,839
And i'm telling, you, MAN i know What i'm talking. About,

00:29:27,039 --> 00:29:30,200
three plus one selection, model and an additional weekend of

662
00:29:30,319 --> 00:29:34,200
on CAMPUS cfp home. Games with the College Football playoff

663
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,000
format remaining at twelve for the twenty twenty six, season

664
00:29:37,359 --> 00:29:41,480
the drum beat of POTENTIAL cfp chains will inevitably echo

665
00:29:41,599 --> 00:29:46,640
through the coming. Season the, document obteamed BY espn includes

666
00:29:46,799 --> 00:29:49,640
other interesting, details such as the committee being asked with

667
00:29:50,759 --> 00:29:53,200
not having any rematches in the first.

668
00:29:53,319 --> 00:29:54,759
Speaker 1: Round that's what they're tasked to.

669
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:58,759
Speaker 2: Do such as the committee not allowing for any rematches

670
00:29:58,799 --> 00:30:02,160
in the first, round the sides of the potential expansion

671
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,680
issue were drawn clear in recent. Weeks THE sec was

672
00:30:05,759 --> 00:30:08,160
willing to go to sixteen team, format and The Big

673
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,000
ten was willing to grow to sixteen only with an

674
00:30:11,039 --> 00:30:14,440
agreement to eventually go to twenty four. Teams those two

675
00:30:14,559 --> 00:30:17,960
leagues essentially controlled THE cfp decision, making hence the.

676
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 1: Stalemate, okay they're still the big power brokers.

677
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:25,599
Speaker 2: Here The Big ten internal document details what the conference

678
00:30:25,599 --> 00:30:29,359
has termed a twenty four TEAM cfb format, compromise sources

679
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,519
told THE. Espn it has been distributed to the league's

680
00:30:32,519 --> 00:30:36,079
athletic directors and a working group of head. Coaches while

681
00:30:36,119 --> 00:30:39,640
the document presents nothing formal or official in terms of

682
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,359
the future of college football, playoffs it does begin to

683
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,720
unpack the vision of a twenty four team. Format the

684
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:50,920
idea has increased in conversation amongst, coaches athletic, directors power

685
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:54,599
forward leagues as the coaches acknowledge a playoff or bust

686
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:59,799
pressure and athletic directors want more postseason opportunities to justify

687
00:31:00,519 --> 00:31:05,440
rapidly increasing roster. Expenses the internal document begins by offering

688
00:31:05,519 --> 00:31:08,680
a potential timeline desired by The Big, ten which wants

689
00:31:08,799 --> 00:31:10,960
the format to grow to a sixteen team playoff for

690
00:31:11,319 --> 00:31:14,119
twenty twenty, seven twenty twenty, eight the document IN ksea

691
00:31:14,279 --> 00:31:16,880
moved to twenty four for no later than the twenty

692
00:31:17,039 --> 00:31:20,119
twenty nine, season which would then run through the end

693
00:31:20,279 --> 00:31:22,880
of the CURRENT cfp, contract which goes through two thousand

694
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,519
and thirty. One from, there there would be a new

695
00:31:25,599 --> 00:31:29,799
television contract in further flexibility to. Change remember those THOSE

696
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,200
tv deals are coming up in twenty twenty, nine two

697
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,720
thouy thirty and going into two thousand and thirty. One

698
00:31:35,079 --> 00:31:38,279
in the Proposed though sixteen The sweet sixteen, format there

699
00:31:38,319 --> 00:31:42,920
would be five automatic qualifiers and eleven at large, teams

700
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:47,240
an idea that has been widely. Discussed the top teams

701
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,640
would get, buys the top two teams would get, buyes

702
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:53,960
and the opening Games number sixteen Versus number, Thirteen number

703
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,119
fourteen Versus number fifteen would be played on the second

704
00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:02,680
weekend In, december likely slotting around the Annual army Versus navy.

705
00:32:02,799 --> 00:32:07,559
Game there would be six second round games on campus

706
00:32:08,079 --> 00:32:12,359
and four quarterfinals at traditional bowl locations On New Year's

707
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,640
eve And New Yr's. Day that would be followed by

708
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:20,079
semi final games at ball sites and the national title,

709
00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:23,119
game which would be played around Mid. January the twenty

710
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:26,200
four team format would consist of the twenty three best

711
00:32:26,279 --> 00:32:29,680
teams and one spot for The group of. Six there

712
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:33,839
would be no automatic, qualifiers which had been a point

713
00:32:33,839 --> 00:32:36,079
of emphasis for The Big ten in THE cfp discussion last.

714
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,200
Year if the field grows at twenty, four the sources

715
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,920
have indicated that the automatic qualifiers would matter less to

716
00:32:41,559 --> 00:32:45,480
The Big. Ten so according to the, document the breakdown

717
00:32:45,519 --> 00:32:48,720
for this field if it had played out in twenty

718
00:32:48,839 --> 00:32:52,000
twenty five would have been SEVEN sec, teams Six Big,

719
00:32:52,119 --> 00:32:55,559
ten Five Big, twelve THREE acc and Two group of

720
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:58,920
six And Notre. Dame that would have been your top

721
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,519
top twenty. Four there top the top eight teams would receive.

722
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:07,039
Buys there would be eight first round games on, campus

723
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,119
and then an extra week of home games with eight

724
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:13,960
second round games played on. Campus that would mean all

725
00:33:14,039 --> 00:33:17,200
the top teams would be rewarded with a playoff home,

726
00:33:17,319 --> 00:33:20,599
game which has been considered a flaw of the current.

727
00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,359
System number One, indiana for, example didn't play a home

728
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:24,240
game in last.

729
00:33:24,279 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 1: SEASON cfp not.

730
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,599
Speaker 2: Good the optimal window to start the twenty fourteen playoff

731
00:33:29,599 --> 00:33:34,759
would be the second weekend Of, december which would Have friday.

732
00:33:34,359 --> 00:33:36,119
Speaker 1: And saturday away from ANY nfl.

733
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 2: Competition it would address the long rest period that has

734
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:43,720
emerged early in the twelve team playoff. Model teams with

735
00:33:43,839 --> 00:33:47,799
buys and extended layoffs went one in seven the first

736
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,799
two years of THE. Cfp the quarterfinals would fall On

737
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,920
New Year's eve And Year's day at both, sites and

738
00:33:55,359 --> 00:33:59,480
the semi finals would be following. Week it would be

739
00:33:59,519 --> 00:34:02,359
the following week at bull sites that would be followed

740
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,720
by a Mid january title game at a neutral. Site

741
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,960
in that proposed twenty four team, model the preference is

742
00:34:09,079 --> 00:34:12,480
that no regular season matches would be permitted in the first,

743
00:34:12,559 --> 00:34:17,559
round but games between league foes could could be played

744
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,880
if they didn't meet in the regular. Season this transition

745
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:23,519
to a twenty four team format would include the elimination

746
00:34:23,599 --> 00:34:26,480
of conference title, games and the incremental timeline to get

747
00:34:26,519 --> 00:34:29,639
to twenty four teams in twenty twenty nine would give

748
00:34:29,639 --> 00:34:32,920
appropriate remedies for moving away from.

749
00:34:33,039 --> 00:34:34,199
Speaker 1: Them the internal.

750
00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:35,840
Speaker 2: Document gives a window into how The Big ten views

751
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:39,559
of the conference title, games calling them artificial and saying

752
00:34:39,639 --> 00:34:43,320
that leagues that play them take on way more risk

753
00:34:43,679 --> 00:34:46,519
than those that don't and still advance to THE. Cfp

754
00:34:47,039 --> 00:34:50,440
how THE cfp would handle making up for the cost

755
00:34:50,519 --> 00:34:53,280
of losing the conference title games would be one of

756
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:54,079
the biggest looming.

757
00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:55,639
Speaker 1: Issues so that's the biggest question right.

758
00:34:55,639 --> 00:34:58,400
Speaker 2: Now THE cfp would how are they gonna you, know

759
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,320
there's a cop of losing the conference title. Games it

760
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:04,199
would be one of the biggest. Issues The power four

761
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:07,039
championship games have media value of at least two hundred,

762
00:35:07,039 --> 00:35:11,800
million and that figure represents only a television. Valuation it

763
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:15,639
doesn't account for the tens of millions the games generate with, tickets,

764
00:35:15,679 --> 00:35:19,159
sponsorships and game day. Sales the financial trick of a

765
00:35:19,199 --> 00:35:23,079
sixteen game playoff if the sport were to eventually divorce

766
00:35:23,159 --> 00:35:25,280
itself from the conference title, game is that it would

767
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:28,440
add four, games only two of which would be up

768
00:35:28,519 --> 00:35:31,639
for bid to bring in new. Money the current contract

769
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:36,360
accounts FOR espn owning the added games up to fourteen. Teams,

770
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,239
essentially there's no way to make up the financial delta

771
00:35:39,519 --> 00:35:42,199
from losing the league title, games though that's what it looks.

772
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:43,280
Speaker 1: Like moving to a.

773
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 2: Twenty fourteen model would mean ten additional games up for.

774
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,440
Bid there would be twenty three total, games up from

775
00:35:49,679 --> 00:35:53,000
eleven in the twelveeen to. FORMAT espn would own two

776
00:35:53,119 --> 00:35:55,599
of the twelve new games so only ten would go

777
00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:59,360
out for open. Bid the document includes some rationale behind the.

778
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,920
Move it stresses the sustained interest of a longer playoff

779
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:06,239
and prioritizes home games on campus and elimination of risk

780
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:09,440
of injury and conference championship, Games cidingkhusier's quarterback For Ander

781
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:11,920
medosa's injury scare of The Big ten title. Game The

782
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:14,960
Big ten document stresses the uptick in relevant regular season,

783
00:36:15,039 --> 00:36:20,400
games saying in today's transfroportal player movement, era teams may

784
00:36:20,519 --> 00:36:23,239
lose a game or two early and gel together later

785
00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:27,559
in the. Season war playoff opportunities late provides an appropriate safety.

786
00:36:27,639 --> 00:36:28,599
Speaker 1: Net ronald the three Man.

787
00:36:28,679 --> 00:36:32,239
Speaker 2: Weaver you've read, This you've evaluated, it your, thoughts your.

788
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:35,360
Commentary would you like to see A sweet sixteen or

789
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:36,719
a twenty fourteen team?

790
00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:38,639
Speaker 6: Playoff, Yeah i've been on a record with this has

791
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:41,000
Been sweet. SIXTEEN i Think i'm gonna stay.

792
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,920
Speaker 3: THERE i understand that twenty fourteen playoff and nature everybody gets,

793
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,679
in BUT i don't. KNOW i think there should be

794
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,480
value in playing the conference championship. GAME i really think

795
00:36:48,519 --> 00:36:52,119
it should. Be you, KNOW i understand going away from that,

796
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,639
now if you will get him on the line later this.

797
00:36:54,679 --> 00:36:56,679
Week Shan walker would love this because he wants to

798
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:58,719
go away with the conference championship, game and the person

799
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,719
that won the conference should be at the. Top SO

800
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,159
i understand that, point But i'm still sweet. SIXTEEN i

801
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:05,159
think that is what it should. BE i think twenty

802
00:37:05,199 --> 00:37:07,960
four too. MANY i don't think we can reward being

803
00:37:08,039 --> 00:37:11,559
the top four from every. CONFERENCE i think sixteen is

804
00:37:11,599 --> 00:37:13,440
what it is. Like if you're in the top, fifteen top,

805
00:37:13,559 --> 00:37:17,440
sixteen THEN i think you're competing for. Championship we see

806
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:19,880
it in. Basketball you don't see people really outside of

807
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,440
that really do. It you might get a Few cinderellas

808
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,880
here and, there BUT i, mean look at the top, Sixteen,

809
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:26,519
Ben all of those people could have gone to the

810
00:37:26,519 --> 00:37:29,280
college football playoffs and. Competed you, know The, texas The,

811
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:32,440
michigan's The, byus all those people. GOOD i firmly believe

812
00:37:32,519 --> 00:37:34,480
that The, Texas, tech The organs and some of those

813
00:37:34,559 --> 00:37:37,320
did go on to competing the college football. Playoffs BUT

814
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:38,960
i don't think it should be outside of. THAT i

815
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:42,679
think you gotta go. Sixteen it's, sweet it's. Glorious twenty

816
00:37:42,760 --> 00:37:45,000
fours too. MANY i do like the idea from The big.

817
00:37:45,039 --> 00:37:46,320
Ten but, look at the end of the, day been

818
00:37:46,559 --> 00:37:48,480
The big ten in THE, sec they run, it and

819
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:51,039
that's what it comes down. To and if THE sec

820
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:52,719
is gonna agree to, this they're gonna figure out some

821
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:54,559
way how they can get. More you, Know Greg sanki's

822
00:37:54,559 --> 00:37:56,599
gonna make sure he gets his ten teams. In but

823
00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,039
at the end of the, day you, know if they

824
00:37:59,119 --> 00:38:01,559
go to twenty, four because of those in, power they.

825
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,039
Speaker 6: Will push this and it will you, know it will.

826
00:38:04,079 --> 00:38:06,840
Speaker 3: Happen and if they if it doesn't and they cause

827
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,280
a fit, been then are we gonna see where they break?

828
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,440
OFF i think this is where the college football playoff,

829
00:38:11,519 --> 00:38:14,360
been the future of it. Is the balances will be.

830
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,679
Laid it's either they agree to this and they make

831
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:19,000
this happen of the expansion in some shape or, form

832
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,360
or it's gonna lead to The big TEN sec breaking

833
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:22,880
off and taking who they. WANT i think that's what

834
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,719
it's gonna come down. TO i hope it, doesn't BUT

835
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:27,880
i think this is the last. STRAW i think sixteen

836
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:29,719
or twenty four this is gonna make or break the

837
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:33,960
future of college football and the college football playoffs as

838
00:38:34,039 --> 00:38:34,400
we know had.

839
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,639
Speaker 2: Been, Yeah my opinion is the more The mary look

840
00:38:37,679 --> 00:38:43,480
at we have, traditionally, okay we in college, football college,

841
00:38:43,599 --> 00:38:47,599
basketball we always have a top twenty, five right is

842
00:38:47,679 --> 00:38:50,480
that what we've always HAD ap top twenty five TO

843
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:55,599
cbn stop twenty, FIVE pff top twenty. Five everything's top twenty,

844
00:38:55,639 --> 00:38:57,559
five top twenty, five top twenty, five Top thwe like.

845
00:38:58,199 --> 00:39:00,519
Speaker 1: That is in. Blazon that isn't better into our.

846
00:39:00,559 --> 00:39:04,880
Speaker 2: Psyche so get as close to top twenty five is

847
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,719
possible because it's always meant something in college football college,

848
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:13,159
basketball and allow for buys for as many teams as,

849
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,599
necessary and start the season a little bit earlier so

850
00:39:15,639 --> 00:39:20,079
we're not getting into you, know Late, january so that

851
00:39:20,159 --> 00:39:23,960
there's not. Conflicts if you need to play more, games

852
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:26,320
if you need more data, points then start the season

853
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:30,079
a little bit. Earlier we have an entire. Summer ladies and.

854
00:39:30,159 --> 00:39:34,159
Gentlemen we report to fall camp in Early. August you

855
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,719
practice for four. Weeks two of the weeks are typically.

856
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:43,800
Competitive you got these internal, fights internal, depth depth, competition et.

857
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:45,880
Cetera and then you prepare for two. Weeks do you

858
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:50,719
really need two weeks to prepare for YOUR fcsfo or

859
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:54,679
YOUR g SIX? Fo you, know you should sequentially build

860
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:59,679
up in, competition and that's how it should be in my.

861
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 1: Opinion so.

862
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:07,840
Speaker 2: You could probably, start you, know college football in Mid.

863
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,480

fcs to spring start college football mid Mid, august and

902
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:16,159
you can get more games in and then you can

903
00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:18,559
get more data POINTS p four VERSUS p.

904
00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:23,679
Speaker 1: Four we need more data POINTS acc.

905
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:26,760
Speaker 2: Versus big, Twelve big twelve Versus big, Ten big twelve VERSUS.

906
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:30,280
Speaker 1: Sec we need more data points in order to.

907
00:42:30,599 --> 00:42:33,159
Speaker 2: Have an accurate depiction of who the top twenty four

908
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:34,360
tonto twenty five teams.

909
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,599
Speaker 1: Are. Periods, okay.

910
00:42:39,679 --> 00:42:44,800
Speaker 2: You're never gonna have too much, football and every's gonna, say, well, injuries, Injuries,

911
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:48,559
YEAH i, agree like there could be. Injuries do away

912
00:42:48,639 --> 00:42:51,280
with the conference championship. Game if you have more regular season,

913
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,840
games more regular season conference games, too what are you

914
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:59,039
gonna get? Well and if you have more interconference games,

915
00:42:59,119 --> 00:43:03,639
too if you get up to you, know fourteen, fifteen

916
00:43:04,559 --> 00:43:07,360
sixteen regular season, games then you're gonna have a more

917
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:11,639
accurate depiction of rankings and you can actually conclude subjectively

918
00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:14,280
and objectively if you want the committee to still be

919
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:16,039
a part of you want a fifty to fifty you,

920
00:43:16,119 --> 00:43:20,960
know balanced equation here with the committee and the, algorithm

921
00:43:21,079 --> 00:43:26,960
THE bcs LIKE sp PLUS fpi combination, here the advanced

922
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:30,159
analytics that we lean into that you combine both of

923
00:43:30,199 --> 00:43:32,719
those and you probably can conclude who the best twenty

924
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:34,880
four teams. Are and you know what's gonna happen with you,

925
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,519
know top twenty four teams even.

926
00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:37,960
Speaker 1: If you've found a.

927
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:39,159
Speaker 2: WAY i, Mean i'm trying to think of a way

928
00:43:39,199 --> 00:43:40,400
that you can do it with the top twenty five

929
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:42,480
teams to the number one team of the. NATION i

930
00:43:42,519 --> 00:43:45,400
don't know you have multiple bye, weeks et. Cetera but

931
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:48,199
you can figure something out. Here we can we can

932
00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:51,639
figure out the, calendar we can figure out how there's

933
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,719
really no conflicts and they can still make money for

934
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:59,920
the continuity and success of college football in my, opinion

935
00:44:00,039 --> 00:44:03,480
so guys aren't opting, out injuries aren't as big of

936
00:44:03,519 --> 00:44:05,440
an issue in conference championship, games and we can see

937
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:07,480
