Speaker 1: I'm living good. Happy Monday to you guys. Happy Mlkday.
Most importantly, it is a glorious day. Maybe not from
BYU fans because of the loss that happened, but we
have a lot to celebrate for allowed me to be
happy about appreciate this this special day and set out
to Martin Luther King.
Speaker 3: I have a dream, right, I have a dream, and
hopefully all of you guys have a dream. For a
better life. The MLK had a dream for a better life,
not only for himself but for the people that he led.
And so without a vision, you hear me talk about
all the time you perish in this life. And MOK
had a vision, a great vision and egalitarian type of vision,
and we are grateful, we are blessed that he was
able to effectuate and influence that vision into reality. Let's
also welcome into the show Brett always bringing the hammer
Hammer Times show What's happened to brotherw was the weekend.
Speaker 4: I'm so happy that bou Football posted this quote from MLK.
Speaker 3: Darkness cannot drive out darkness. Only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can.
Speaker 4: Do that because at the end of the day, like
the reason we talk ball is because we love ball
and we want to give people who are having We
want to give people away to get away from the
hate in the darkness that goes on from a day
to day basis. That's what makes sports great, not because
it's the most important thing in the world, but it
helps us get away from some of the rougher things
of the world. And so I love the Baillia Football
posted that quote from Martin Luther King, because I sports
brings us together and at the end of.
Speaker 1: The day, like that's that's the light of Jesus Christ, right.
Speaker 4: Is us wanting to be together, spend time together, love
one another, understand one another. So yeah, shout out to
doctor Martin Luther King Junior MLK Day and uh shout
out to Billia Football for posting that quote because I
think it's one of the all time greats.
Speaker 3: If you have a favorite quote from MLK, drop it
on me at crital Benjamin on Twitter. Always loving to
hear from kugarnation and what their favorite quotes are and
the things that inspire them to be better on and
off the football field. You mentioned something to me that
you know, it's always been impactful. Obviously, sport has taught
me so much. I think it's taught us so much,
and so we celebrate that on the daily, no doubt
about it. As you mentioned, it's not the most important thing,
but it's for us, it's it's it's important, right, It's
part of our community, it's a part of our our culture.
It's uh where we've learned the lessons of life. You know.
One of the things that uh uh if I can
piggyback off of what you stated, Coach Harball, Okay, Jim
Horrball stated that the last bastion of toughness resides in athletics. Okay.
There's only a few places where young men are being
taught toughness and grit in this uh emasculated world that
we're living in, Okay, for for many people. Uh. And
it's the military, right. Uh. That's one place. Uh. And
and another place is in in football.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 3: They call it the the the grid iron for a reason.
It's Uh you talk about the fog of war in
foot ball, the schematics, right, The toughness, the physicality, the
violence of it all. It's very warlike, right. And so
it's a way that you can teach toughness and lessons
in life about grit, competitive nature, being your best self,
and also being one of eleven or one of five,
one of a team, putting other people first, putting the
team first. There's no I in team all those things.
So love the lessons learned in sport, and love the
lessons learn from those that have gone on before us.
We got to lean into those like MLK. On this
beautiful January nineteenth edition of Cougar Sports, So chime in.
We'll get into all the questions and polls of the day.

I think they dropped out to what thirteen? They were
number eleven at the time nine with the you know,
nine minutes left, they had a nine point lead and
they ended up losing eighty four to seventy one at
the United Supermarkets Arena, and that was an end to
a thirteen game win streak. Rob Right the third looked great,
fantastic game from him. The Todd King was solid, combining
for a dominant scoring burst in the second half to
give the Cougars a nine point lead. As I mentioned,
Texas Tech made its final seven shots of the game
to secure the wins. So number one Texas Tech went
in fuego. Number two BYU went cold and they didn't
probably have their best lineup of the game. They had
their best lineup with the season and not the best
lineup with the game, is what I would say. In
those remaining five minutes, to kind of keep it staggered,
keep it balanced, keep it back and forth. Rob Right
the third though, had a career high twenty eight points,
nine to seventeen shooting, and was he was unstoppable in
moments in this game five rebounds, three assists, and one steal.
After recording six points in the first half, rob Bright
scored a season high twenty two in the second, highlighted
by his nine of nine shooting from the charity stripe.
Saunders posted eighteen points, seven to fifteen from the field.
The senior also grabbed four rebounds, two steals in a
block in this In that game, and Bayu scoring came
largely in the paint, totaling forty points, with twenty four
coming in the first half. The Cougar's held Texas Tech
to twenty eight lane points. Guys, let's break this down though,
ron of the three man weaver obviously J T. Toppin
arguably you know, I mean, he's seniored, he's tenured. He
may be the best player in the conference. When in
Fuego twenty seven points, twelve rebounds, and that's a very
good team on their home court. The fact that they
did not miss essentially in the in the remaining five
minutes of the game is pretty impressive. Go on.
Speaker 5: It's electric offensive team in their building. You know, they
caught some rhythm. Obviously we opened it up, and then
they responded in a major way. And so we got
to go back and really examine the film to see
exactly what happened. But you know, you know, Toppings obviously
a great player. He got going, it felt like in
a stretch. But but I think we we we were
scoring the ball really well and then it we kind
of got cold. So I got to do a better
job of putting our guys in position to you know,
get really quality shots in the midst of runs like that.
And Aj was held to a season low thirteens and
I were kind of just your overall thoughts on that
and how he plans to bounce back in the coming games. Yeah,
I mean they did a good job not found you know,
as a physical game, some of those probably could have
gone either way. But you know, you have to give
them credit for not found them.
Speaker 3: But Aj is a smart young man.
Speaker 5: He'll learn from this and he'll be better next time out.
Speaker 3: So that was the initial statement from Ky in the
post game. I think that's been the focus of many
after the skame. They found a way to slow down
Aj de Bonsla. He had a good first half. Second half,
they made adjustments. AJ had mostly just contested shots. He
was blocked multiple times. They didn't foul him. He was
not getting to the free throw line. He was not
receiving any calls. You can, it's up for debate on
whether or not you thought they should have been called
or or shouldn't have been called. Letting him play on
their home court, et cetera. But Aj, he struggled a bit,
and that's okay. He's gonna go through those trials and tribulations.
I was very much impressed by Hadem Boop, his defensive
effort when he was on the floor, by you played better.
Let's be honest. Hadem made the team better, everyone around
him better. Whereas AJ. You know, he was struggling a
little bit getting into a rhythm. Whether it was defensively,
Hadeem on the on ball, the defense was ridiculous. I
was so impressed with his effort that concussion protocol that
he could be in right now. That's pretty devastating because
he looked to be a guy that all of a
sudden had confidence and was elevating his play. Uh and uh,
it's unfortunate that he went down when he did. Because
he was playing elite defense. Ronald of three Man weaver
your thoughts.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think where the big thing will happen. Yeah,
that was that was huge. And even if Haidiin does
play Ben at the end, I don't think that the game.
I thought I had got an out of hand already,
even though that was a crucial moment to maybe see
a by you can cut the nine lead that what
happened was, and Kevin Yong will mention it more here. Uh,
but they they out rebounded him down the stretch for sure.
They in that run and then they just some people online,
you know, say that the AJ's water turned off. I
think the biggest thing coming into this game was the
physicality from Texas Tech on AJ not fouling, and both
of those go hand in hands. So the great defense
by them. It was AJ not practicing the last two
days that was reported. This is nothing I'm saying off
the cuff. This is stuff that did happen because he
was feeling ill. So you been you have to understand
if you're feeling ill and then you don't practice and
then you come into a physical game. I can speak
to that having been ill and having not played and
having played in the game on it Saturday. It does
not go well for you. It does not. That's just
the nature of it in college because when you're trying
to get your lungs back onder you you're on a
plane going to elevation. Look, some people may view this
as excuses, that could be the reasoning, but I just
think when you need him to show up in those
moments when they go on a run like that, I
just think that's tough with everything that was combobulated with it,
with him not getting the calls, and then it kind
of turned into you know NBA one on one basketball.
It felt like that Rob a couple of you know
block shots by Texas Tech trying to force with the
left hand going on the right side. There were sets
for Richie didn't work down the stretch. You know, although
you had a great shooting performance overall, they were blocking.
It wasn't going. So you got just got to give
texta Tech credit, bend that they just played phenomenal defense.
They locked the Byu up. You thought by was gonna
do it with nine minutes left. Now will say this,
Rob Wright coming out of the game, it wasn't because
Kevin Young subed him out just because Rob disokayed his
finger and that was getting taken care of, and that
also played a factor into that. And I think that's
and I think if Rob doesn't disokay his finger, I
think BA is able to skip out of there with
the win down the stretch because they had no answer
when they were playing that fast. But when you take
a time out in sports, been that kills momentum, and
I thought that and Rob going to the bench for
that ninety seconds really threw them off with everything encompass
and it was just a unraveling. But look, you know,
I had a guest on the pregame show that said,
this was a game. If you lose it doesn't it
doesn't hurt you, but if you win it definitely helps you.
So it didn't hurt BYU too much. You saw from
eleven to thirteenth Bin That's why it doesn't hurt you
too much. But it would have been nice to see
them get a true QUA one road game win, which
they haven't really done just yet.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm in a chord with you on that. I
feel like there was were the two three point shooting calls?
Were those a bit dubious? Were those a bit controversial
or do you feel good about those? You're like, hey,
you know what, No, the lake got clipped, you know
James Harden's style, even though the kick happened with those
a little bit ticky tacky in your opinion.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the first one was tiki taki, the second one
was you know, that's tough. But look, you're on the road.
You're not gonna get that call at home. Like I mean,
on the road. You're gonna get that call if you're
BYU at home. And that's what it is. But look,
I think the second one by Beato was a completely
he found him. It's not even a question. Won't even
argue that one. The first one, Yeah, there's some stuff
with that, but look, Ben, it's very simple. You have
to know you can't close out too hard. They're gonna
give the shooter everything. They're gonna protect a shooter. Frandfre Shil,
a friend of the program, says he was okay with
the call because you have to protect that shooter. And
with that, if that's my mindset, is a player, Ben
in that moment, I know and this is what I do.
I'm running past. So you see, now, guys will slide
to the left away from you to not touch you
at all, because if you impede that space anymore, they're
gonna do it. They always do. I thought Knar played
grad D. I thought it shouldn't have been. Maybe people
think I'm a little bit biased, but look, you have
to understand environment, you have to understand moments, and when
you have no momentum in that any type of contact
is gonna go the Red Raiders way. So that one
was Ticky Tech, but the second one was, no doubt.
And then look at the end of the only other
side I felt, and I'm just being honest, this is
the first time I felt like Kevin Oung was forcing
things offensively. The play's drawn for Richie and he's been
one of the greatest coaches out of timeouts in college basketball,
if not the greatest. And what set place those were
not working. And when that's not working and Texas Tech
just has you clamped, you just might have to tip
your cap and then turn the page in the next game.
Speaker 3: Don't fret, don't get too stressed out about it. All
you gotta do is win at home. In my opinion,
win versus the bottom half of the conference on the
road and split the road games against the top half
and you're good. And I don't know where that would
necessarily put BYU, but I don't think anything worse than
a five seed, most likely a four seed. I would
love to see him be a three seed if they're
winning at least on the road versus that top half
of the conference. But we do know Texas Tech is
one of the krem Dela Krems. They are playing good
basketball right now, especially on their home Courtright, Brett, I
always bring the hamber. Did you want to chime in
on anything before we get back into the soundbites?
Speaker 1: Oh Man, the Big Twelve is tough to.
Speaker 3: God like, this isn't the true gotlet now of SEC
football talk. This is the true gauntlet.
Speaker 4: Well, because we're like, oh man, jat Topping might be
one of the best players, might be the best player
in the Big twelve. I think if you ask any
fan base in the Big Twelve, they would make an
argument we have the best player in the Big twelve. Obviously,
bou thinks they do, Kansas thinks they do, Arizona thinks
they do. There's a lot of teams who have an
argument for best in the Big Twelve. So part of that,
Gautlet is every single night you were taking on someone
who could be a first round draft pick in the NBA,
who could be a lot and so that's I think
that just kind of comes with the territory. Unfortunately, one
thing I thought was interesting, Ron, you're talking a lot
about Rob Wright. I think we would agree at this
point in the season that the two toughest games bou
has played all year are Yukon and Texas Tech. And
it's interesting how in both of those games, rob Wright
has kind of been the lynchpin because if you remember
the end of the Yukon game, something you have been
notable for saying, Ron is Rob Wright shouldn't have had
the ball there. Well, now, in the Texas Tech game,
when you needed Rob Wright to have the ball to
continue on that scoring run with nine minutes ago, guess
who you wished had been there and was it? And
that was Rob Wright. I feel like this game was
emblematic and frankly inevitable because we've talked a lot about, Okay,
this team wants to go Big three, awesome, AJ Robin Ritchie, they.
Speaker 3: Can get it done.
Speaker 4: What happens when one of those guys isn't able to
show up, and it's hard to give AJ criticism a
little bit because you feel a little bit like you're
kicking the man when he's down, because you know how
sick he was. We know how the fact that he
didn't practice for a couple of days. I feel like, though,
Ron the real issue with this game was Texas Tech said,
that's fine, if you want to play Big three, We're
gonna take one away and see if you can beat
us with the other two. Because I didn't even believe
the stat but it's true. I'd I had to look
it up to see it for myself. AJ de Bonce
was one for six with two points in the second half.
That is true, two points, and the only points that
he had were on that that screen where Richie sets
the screen and then AJ does the little up and under,
which was a sweet move. Those were his only points
of the half. You wonder if AJ is able to
score even four or five points in the second half,
if that changes things. But it was just it was
so obvious that Texas Tech said, will let Rob do
whatever he wants, and we're gonna get a couple of
swats on him when he comes inside.
Speaker 3: AJ is not gonna beat us.
Speaker 4: I mean, Ron, do you think if AJ is healthy
they win this game.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they're able to overcome uh that run
Ben and Brett specifically your question, I do, I really
do believe that because I'm watching games and I'm and
I want fans to pay attention watch the physicality of AJ.
He's deferring, that doesn't happen. He's getting in making a move,
looking looking, He's like, all right, he's looking the past
the ball. Only AJ is trying to do too much,
which is a sign of I'm trying to score the basketball.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 1: Texas Tech is a good defensive team. I don't want
to take anything away from that. But when he gets
into pain, normally he's trying to raise over like I
think the lingering effects of not practicing the physicality. But
let that, like Kevin Young mentioned in an opening segment
of the question, that happens players have those days. Tap
it with Kevin Durant remember the Boston Celtics like playoffs
series where they were just overly physical and says, you're
not gonna beat us a kadie. Kyrie's gonna have to
score forty or fifty a game, and they just were
like going bonkers and throwing shoulders and playing football like that.
That's how it goes, you know. Sometimes Yeah, those moments
you have to adjust. But Ben, this is what I'll
go with. Then I want to introduce a new point
to the fans. Yes, you can win the bottom half
of the Big Twelve. Yes you can win a home
and split, but when we talk about two seeds, when
we talk about getting to a final four, you have
to win these games on the road. You have to
get one of them. You don't have to get all
of them, but you gotta win at Kansas, you gotta
somehow get the one at Arizona. The Texas Tech one's
already gone. You have to get one of those games.
I know it's tough to win in the Big Twelve,
but I mean serious when I bring this up. That
game if they have and look, it's not their fault,
right and it's nobody to judge, just unfortunate, But if
they have Dawson ordinate Pickens, I believe that doesn't happen
because if Rob is on the bench, one of those
guys is able to come in. You don't have that.
So I'm introduce a new factor if that if they
lose a game like that again on the road against
the team they go to fag Allen Field House, they
go to the McHale Center. If they lose a game
like that been on the road where it unravels, or
even at home, I'll even throw it at home. But
it's really, really I don't think that would happen. I
think you could see kJ Perry come out of that
red shirt. I'm gonna say it. I'm gonna go with
a hot take. Now I hope I'm really wrong, but
with and that was something that was a freak thing,
a dissocated finger. But if Rob gets in foul trouble
or AJ gets in foul trouble, I'm wondering now playing
the scenarios of my brain of where do you turn to?
Are you gonna turn to a Lexi coasch at that
point it's by you know, you have no choice because
of foul trouble. But that's not good, That's not healthy.
Now know they want to keep that bin. But if
I see that that happens again, if that happens to
that coaching staff or things just unravel and I get
Texas Tech hit shots. You gotta give him credit for that.
But if it happens that bad again, where teams are
hitting shots and you can't put pressure offensively and you
are playing good enough defense from the perimeter. Then I
think you could see that move made. Look, that's why
they brought beat him in for that purpose, and I
think you could see the same thing.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 1: I hope that's not the case. It's unfortunate that Dawson
and eight. I feel like we're robbed of a great
team to be able to do that because they wouldn't
be in that position they had a won that game.
I feel like, heck, they might even win the Yukon game.
But to wrap up this tangent bind, if they have
another game, word unravels like that and rob freak accident,
foul trouble, I think you might see kJ suit up
in the game, because where are they gonna turn to offensively?
Like Brett said, these are the guys that are gonna
take the shots, and Kevin Young said they're gonna live
and die by that. But if a guy is going
to the bench, where do you turn for that?
Speaker 3: Now?
Speaker 1: Mahalala's not playing very good defense right, He's fouling behind
the play CAPA shouldn't have over rotated. I just I
look at all of that, if all of that can
just unravel, and this team has final four aspirations, but
to do that you need guard play.
Speaker 3: Let's take a brief time out. Let's come back with

the great movies that won an award. It's played by,
you know, a great actress. So I felt like that was,
you know, appropriate for today. Obviously, with it be an
MLK Day, you need to go listen to the song
or your own. Don't want to play it for everybody
on the airway, so we can get back to the content.
But I like it because it just highlights, you know,
in three minutes, just a great story telling of what
Martin Luther King stood for. And look, I'm gonna be honest,
I am a I say this. I'm a black man
married to a white woman. There was the times in
the world that were different. My family roots are from
Mississippi and Alabama, and there's a lot of things going
on and you know, his influence, Ben is the reason
why I'm able to partially one of the reasons I'm
able to you know, be Marriy Dimley and you know,
and my family history is a part of that. So
I wanted to play that just to you know, highlight him.
Speaker 3: Love and appreciate that. Ronald the three Man, we were
picking the band of the day, brought to you by
Royal Army dot Com b O U S. White Crew,
by fans for fans. We're going to get back to
the sound bites. B YU took it in the mouth man.
That was That was a tough, wild and rockoush environment
there in Lubbock, and they were up big but just
couldn't hold on to the win. Let's talk about it
with k Y and Rob right the third Kevin, you
went on a sixteen to two run in the second half.
Rob made a couple of free throws. Did you decide
to take him out for a quick uh, you know
rest bite there, a little quick rest there. Nah.
Speaker 5: He had something happened to his pinky, so he was
getting that thing taped up.
Speaker 1: So Rob was unbelievable tonight.
Speaker 3: I mean, we we we you know, we wouldn't have
been in.
Speaker 5: The in the advantageous position that we got the game too.
If it wasn't for Rob, he was unbelievable tonight. You know,
so a lot of it's on me to make sure
I'm putting, you know, our guys in the right spots
when they're rolling, and probably could have done a better
job of that to continue to kind of keep the
ball in his hands. But uh, you know something that
I got to examine on the film.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was un fortunately remember when he when he
popped off, he did like that little spin move towards
the the left side of the lane and and fell
down and immediately popped up and you could see that
pinky was just kind of popped out of place. He
ran straight over to Rob Rainmos, the head athletic trainer
for b Yu mentioned basketball and uh subsequently got it
taped up. So yeah, he needed a little bit of
a spell there. I don't know how long he was
on the bench for, but it was it was minimal
time on the bench. But you have to wonder his
uh if his efficacy, his confidence, his handle, was it
all disrupted by that dislocation of the pinky. We hope
he's well, I you know, sometimes you can buddy tape
those I mean, if it's his offhand, it's not his
dominant hand. You do a little double sided coban for
those that don't know what coban is. It's a little
double sided tape and it provides a little bit of
tack to the to the leather ball. I think he'll
be okay. But any any finger wrist injury. I mean,
you used to see Kobe would would Buddy tape his
fingers all the time because you get slapped at, especially
when you're a primary ball handler, you get just gnarled
and nasty fingers sometimes because you're getting hit so often,
and those those those calls don't always come. They just don't,
so they don't always come from the zebras. And were
there any complaints from your guys side of things, you know,
Ronald and Hamber time show, you guys felt like it
was called pretty good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I felt like it was called fairly Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think he always played worse officiated games this season
for sure.
Speaker 3: Okay, I think I didn't see a whole lot of
complaints coming from Kugarnat.
Speaker 1: I know Kevin Young wonted the foules that were called
at the like the end of the game when Rob
was getting toasty one of those at the beginning. He
was visibly frustrated, and the broadcast said, oh, so now
you're calling it like but again, fifty to fifty calls
like that band on the road. You're just not gonna
I think the officials did a great job of it.
I'm not gonna look at it that. It just it
got out of hand. And he said, only ninety seconds.
That's all it takes to going eleven. Oh, running basketball,
It only takes ninety So that that pinky I don't
want to say the pinky Robs calls them, but the
dislocation band and going to the bench. Texas text in, Oh,
he's gone, let's do it. And that's all it takes
is quick in basketball, it's very quick.
Speaker 3: Let's get back to the sound by Rob right, the
third was balling. You started taking over the second half, Rob,
What were you seeing from the defense that allows you
to do that?
Speaker 6: I really was just JT was kind of doing a
soft edge. So coach talked about it when he was
watching film on him, just an attack after he dropped back.
So I was just taking advantage of that and just
stringing them out.
Speaker 3: Stringing them up. What were you guys doing defensively. The
cool textas tacked down before that big run k why he.
Speaker 6: Was executing our game plan was trying to keep the
right matchups and we was doing that in that stretch.
Speaker 3: That was Rob breaking it down there. Kevin, you shadowed
Christian the first half and then went away from it
in the second. Why did you guys decide not to
do that? Oh?
Speaker 5: I thought, I mean, that's it's hard to sustain, you know,
that level of intensity for forty minutes. So you know,
we were trying to get into his legs the best
we could. You know, he's obviously a great player, very skilled,
and they do a great job of putting him and
putting him in positions that that are good for him.
So and we tried to take that out the best
we could. But you know, one of the guys that
was doing it had Deem you know, I thought did
a good job. You know, he's a young guy as
a freshman, so it'll be a good learning experience from him.
But in terms of why we went away from it,
you know, I thought they did a better job of
just having you know, different guys bring it up that
Watts facilitated a little bit more and they were able
to kind of count it a little bit.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Ultimately Texas Texas Big three was better than B
Way was Big three. JD. Toppin, Christian Anderson la one
watch they got theirs. Uh JT had twenty seven, Christian
had twenty two. Watch at twenty and H B Y
wasn't able to match that. They just weren't able to
match that pace. Robright had twenty eight, uh AJ had thirteen,
and you know, and and and I think the Todd
King Richie Saunders what he ended up he only had
he was he was pretty he had eighteen. He had eighteen.
I think. So just the Big three went. They weren't enough.
They weren't enough the the home court advantage that the
Raider Red Raiders had. Now, did Texas take make any
changes defensively that you guys when you guys were up nine,
What did you see from that? Their defensive side of
the ball K Why not? Really?
Speaker 5: I mean, I thought, I think I think for them
and and and again they did they did a good
job of it. But they you know, they really guarded
aj without foulon, you know, and that was that was
a a hard thing for a lot of teams to do.
So far in our matchups with other teams. But at
the same time, I mean, again, you have to give
them credit. Let me be very clear, they outplayed us,
They out coached this day, out played us.
Speaker 1: We were five to twenty two from three.
Speaker 5: You know, I thought we had a lot of wide
open looks that just didn't go down.
Speaker 1: And that's basketball.
Speaker 5: And we got to be better in terms of being
able to spread the floor, you know, for guys like
AJ and Rob to do their thing.
Speaker 3: Ronnie, what you got for me? Brother?
Speaker 1: Look as I listened to that, and as I gone back,
because you know been after every football game, you and
I know you, we would watch it together. And I
go back and I watched these games because I really
want to notice. And I looked at the three point shooting. Yeah,
they just didn't hit shots. I don't think that was
the issue. I think you just like you said, you
have to give Texas Tech credit. Ben, And it's probably
frustrating for Graham McCaslin. The best player in their team
is not playing that well and they're still up nine
on us. They're on a sixteen to two run. That's
how good BYU is and that's why this guy's not falling,
even though it was devastating of what happened in that
that four minute stretch, but look, man, this is all
Texas Tech is a basketball fan of someone who loves
big che basketball. I tipped the cap. You know why
because the coach is extremely proud of how they executed
the scout in that four minutess not the whole game
because they're nitpicky, that's how coaches are. But you're extremely
happy with what they did with the scout of AJ
and how they handled that because they were losing that
game and then a flip of the light switch, flip
flip hashcheck Drake, they just went out and just you know,
they did exactly what they needed to do. Topping was amazing,
and it was really Watts. I don't think top And
heard him, because Topin's been doing that his whole career.
I think Watts did when they started over Roten and
he started punishing Richie in the post, and then Cabas
started coming over, and then the foul started to come
and then he went to the line and he hit
a couple of threes and I said, Okay, this might
be over. And then again they just put it out
of their building. And we seen BYU do that. BYU's
done it to people at home all the time. They
weren't able to maintain the lead. It happens. That's basketball.
But I'll say this, I feel bad for the University
of Utah because that was that was a five point
victory up in the Huntsman four or five point, I'm
not gonna say thirty. But they're gonna sit on this
for a week like they did the Yukon game, and
the Utah is gonna get it taken out on them.
It is gonna be mad. He's gonna get their shoulder right.
He's gonna have a full week to get healthy. The
University of Utah is going to get built BTA, I
think on Saturday and the Mirrord and have to deal
with it at afternoon tip off because BYU is gonna
be angry about what happened and that they had to
sit on this loss for seven days.
Speaker 3: I'll tell you, there's a there's a virus going around everywhere,
like especially amuch As the kids. My kids had it.
My wife now has it right now, and it is
like luckless praise taking my zmay.
Speaker 1: Drinking orange juice every day?
Speaker 6: Man?
Speaker 3: Is that Hey, that's good too. Man, get the vitamin C,
the vitamin D, and the z I'm telling you one
of the best things you guys can do as men
take zm A in the evenings, little combo. I used
to take zm A zinc magnesium ASP pertain. Now it
has got some other stuff too. It's a little gummy.
You guys know me. I've done a little bit Ashawa
ganda in the evenings, little Ashwagta. Every once in a while,
I do a little bit of melatonin if I need it.
I don't want to disrupt my hormonal balance too much
with too much melatonin. But the z m A has
kept me healthy and strong and persevering through sicknesses. Uh
that other people have come under the come under the
weather with. So check out ZMA ZMA in the evenings
right before you go to sleep. By the way, a
couple other things here, uh as we delve into this segment, Uh, coach,
last couple of comments from Ky and Rob right the
third you had a rebounding advantage. What did the Red
Razors do positionally that ended that rebound advantage at the
end of the game.
Speaker 5: Not sure specifically, I'll have to look at that on
the film. But you know, we're a good offensive rebounding
team and they you know, they've got some guys with
obviously topping with great size, and we had seven defensive rebounds,
but they had other guys get in there and they
did it as a group.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, you want more second chance Like
I don't think you should ever bet on second chance points,
like right to be consistent with that, but like it's
kind of like one of those It's like a the
football stat that I compare it to, and maybe and
the football stats even more insane, like the amount of
turnovers that BYU special teams unit over the last three
years has been able to acquire via special teams on
like punt cover and kick cover. It's not sustainable. It's
eventually something's got to give offensive rebounding to me, is
akin to that. It's like, eventually teams are going to
box you out, especially when you're taking a whole slew
of three point shots from the perimitive. They're gonna close out.
They're gonna put a body on a body. If they
have length, athleticism and physicality, and what if you're well coached,
They're gonna put a body on you eventually. Does that
make sense?
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like the icing on top of the cake.
But it can't be the main ingredient in the recipe.
Speaker 3: You can't continue, especially when you going against brank teams
like on the road, not gonna happen. So like the
second chance points is about to be a good point
about to be chopped off, right, they're gonna be extinguished.
That fire eventually is gonna be doused. Sorry, You're not
gonna continue to get those rebounds no way know how.
And you can't rely on it. So you gotta hit
your shots within your set offense. And the question is
do we like our offense? Do we like the shots
we're getting? Do you like the looks we're getting? Yeah?
I love the transition offense, I love the ISO, I
love the ability of these players. And many times it's
just nice to let them play their game. And Rob
Wright can can tally twenty eight points doing what he does.
Speaker 1: When the ball is in AJ's hands. Says nothing against Rob.
I don't want people to think that's a shot. Rob's
play well again his career against Texas that he had
his best game against him, but he played well against
him against Baylor like Robin knows how to score. He's
a scoring guard, he's that third option on the other two.
But I want the ball in AJ's hand. I want
him making the decisions because look, go back to the
Miami game, and that's why I think his health played
a factor. Yes, worst lowest scoring performance. He didn't shoot
well in that Miami game, but he was five or fourteen.
But what happened if you go to three back to
back plays, that happened that got Boa to lead, that
led to the Richie three pass from Robin and the
rob three. The ball was in AJ hands, the double came,
he made the right read and then he was able
to close it out with free throws. Maybe him not
practicing and all those other things that said might play
have played a factor because I've seen AJ have a
batch shooting day before, and yes, Miami's not Texas Tech
in moments and be able to still get it now. Look,
it was a different environment, for sure, But this will
be a learning lesson, I think for AJ, and I
think this will be a learning lesson for everybody. But
I agree, if you're gonna rely on offensive rebounds, like
I've said, for being football, if you need an interception
to win you the game, you're gonna need to go
back to the drawing board because you just need to
hit your shots and do that. And that's where I
think Ben, Okay, you were bad at offensive rebounding. K
they got to get better at threes. They might have
to hit Ben somewhere between eight to eleven threes a
game to be able to win, because you just can't
rely on getting the O boards. As much as I
love k Banbidu and Richie, that's not sustainable for the
season games. It will be, but ultimately I think what
it's gonna determine is they need to knock down shots
from beyond the arc, because that to me, Ben, if
I'm a top fifteen team, that's the recipe, that's the recipe.
Be physical with Debonsa, don't foul him when he gets
underneath the basket, make him take the tough two, and
then say, okay, we'll let Richie and Rob try to
beat us. And you know, they don't have a good
bench production to see what happens, and it didn't work
out too well in against the Red Raiders. In the
last five minutes.
Speaker 3: Matt Bayamonte Studio host play by play for BYU Athletics
tweeted this shout and I think it's an important stat
How important to you know? It's up for debate. I
guess Canard mood Davis is four to twenty six from
the three point line in Big twelve play, it's fifteen percent.
As Dodo, it's a boo boo doo Stevens and booboo
Johnson as uh as my guy Brian Logan would say, hopefully, Kay,
why can help him break out of this slump because
this team needs a reliable off ball shooter outside of
big tweet. I'll be honest, I hate moves, mechanics. I
don't like him one bit. It kind of reminds me
of Sean Marion, Like Sean Marin used to hit, but
like his mechanics were completely off. You guys don't know
Sean Marion, I slasher for the Phoenix Suns for a
long time. Really good player obviously, but like mechanics. He
do this a little cross cross across his face, you know,
shot and then come up like it was a little
bit like Lamello like but like you know what I mean,
It's like Lamello, but not as high forehead. It was
like off the forehead and he flick it. It was
really quick and that's what moves is it kind of
it comes from left ear to like forehead right like
frontal low forehead, but it's coming off the forehead whereas
like LaMelo comes up over the top and I can
actually see where he's shooting. Look, people like are like, Ben,
what are you? Why are you getting into this stum?
I love mechanics. You'll hear me talk about anatomy, physiology,
mechanics like you know, biomechanical movie, these things that impact,
like you know, a shot selection and shots made and
things that nature. I don't like his mechanics. I hate
him in fact. And what's happening is he was playing
the SIU last year and he was going against competition
that didn't close out as quickly and contest him as
well as he's experiencing in the Big twelve, and that
it has accelerated his movement and rushed his shot and
now he's off. That's my opinion of it. People will say, well,
all of the the hulla balloo that led to you know,
controversy other things like, I don't think that's the case.
He's been practicing, he's been getting buckets. He says, he's
getting closed out a whole lot quicker in these games,
and it's rushed. It's the same thing I saw with
zach Sely. Zac Selly's with a was amazing when he
was a true freshman because he was getting wide open
looks and then he sped up his mechanics as he
had to, and he was he was kind of trying
to train himself into like a Steph Curry type of shooter.
You speed up those mechanics, it's gonna make you a
little bit more less accurate. That is just the tail
of the tape that I see. So move, he's gotta hit.
We need someone. Maruss ain't gonna hit. Where's the maras
Mihanilo is not a bucket bitch? Right now? Who can
you trust? If the tod King's off, if AJ's sick
and has a dislocated right shoulder, you.
Speaker 2: Know what, what?
Speaker 5: You like?
Speaker 3: Rob did take over the game. It sucks that he
got his pinky dislocated. That slowed him down a bit.
Speaker 4: You're telling me that this is an anomaly and that
when they play Houston and Arizona, suddenly everyone's gonna be
perfect again. And that's I didn't want this to be
an I eyu Rob and Richie to be able to
just dominate and not need help from anybody else. I
just don't think every single game you play against the
top team, and like in Arizonakah Houston, I just don't
think it's gonna be a perfect outing for Rob, Richie
and AJ.
Speaker 3: And frankly, what we're learning.
Speaker 4: About this team is in order for them to win,
it has to be a perfect outing from Rob, Ritchie
and AJ. And I like that you bring up this
stat about canar Davis because there's a lot of blame
to go around, and because Canard doesn't necessarily get the
praise in any of the other games, he hasn't really
shared in the blame in a game like this. However,
what we are learning is, Okay, five of twenty two
from three point that's not gonna win you a ballgame.
If I think if they make if they go eight
of twenty two, which is conservative, that's like thirty three percent.
I think you win this game if you hit three
more three pointers. The problem is Richie did everything he
could have done, Rob did everything he could have done,
and AJ was taken off the board. So The question
then was who is going to be your third guy
to get buckets, And it wasn't Moo Davis. It really
was anybody else, frankly, because I don't know if it's
the trust thing, but there's not a whole lot of
shots being taken by anybody else on this team, so
that allocation factors.
Speaker 3: Into it as well.
Speaker 4: I just think part of the issue was a little
bit what Ron talked about earlier, like you're starting to
realize how much you miss a guy like Nate Pickens
and Dawson Baker, guys that you truly trusted in these
minutes to play guard and just even like just kind
of wait things out until guys like Roberts to your
agent could get back on track.
Speaker 3: You're missing, You're missing that piece.
Speaker 4: I think Dawson honestly is a massive hole right now,
because I don't think there are a whole piece away.
I told Ron this morning, like, I think they're a
half piece away right now. There's just certain moments where
they need a guy to be able to help them
wade out the storm, and they don't have that.
Speaker 3: Yes, a guy that can hit a set three point
nobody nobody can hit it. Rob right can penetrate aj compenetrate,
Richie can penetrate kicking it to like no one can
have set three hammertime show. I feel I could do
a better job right now than everybody. I mean, how
quick is your release? How quick are your mechanics? Is
it quick enough? Is it JT It's quick enough. Every
else in my game is not quick enough. And that
part you need Jonathan Tabinari just set up in the
corner right now from the way over the way. Yeah,
and it's Trevin. But like you know, the only problem
I have with Trev is he's a jump shooter. He's
not a set shooter. There's a difference. He's a guy
that rises right. Not all ray Allen style shooters shoot
the ball at the clip inefficiency rate of ray Allen.
A lot of them float too long and they shoot
on the drop and they're less accurate. Like these like
really form shooting. Trev has a has a very short
lever arm, meaning it's like really tight. It's the reason
why he was a little bit inaccurate on his free
throw shooting. They're like, oh, what what is that to do? Like, no,
he's tight, just watch him. He's he he he raises
quickly and then he pushes like it's very it's it's
not a shoot. I promise you this.
Speaker 1: Team would beat you. Connor Texas Tech. If Trevor Nill's
taking my high Low Boskovich's minutes, well.
Speaker 3: Yeah, what I'm saying is Trev's not a set shooter.
He's coming off a screen.
Speaker 1: And then I don't think they need a set shooter
that I think they need a guy that can hit threes,
just a shooter. Ben. They don't have a shooter. And
here's why I brought up this guy, awesome infinite that
she didn't pick me. My goodness, you've seen me hit
three's been.
Speaker 3: I'm sitting in front of right here and I'm giving
I'm just giving you a hard time. But he's the
better three point shoot hammertime or Rob.
Speaker 1: Brett has paint. Brett Brett has it in the paint.
I can't get in the paint.
Speaker 3: I have no post is Brett did mention that he
have no pot a lot of weight.
Speaker 1: They put me in the pick and roll and try
to give me down low. I have no post game.
I'm just gonna say it right now. I know what
my game is, perimeter and try to beat you off
the dribbles. Shoot to use my speed in my handles.
That's what I'm going to Anyway, here's the guy last year. Remember,
and this is why we're gonna I think it's good
to talk about canards stats five point nine. Uh, that's
what he averages points per game last year. He shot
forty eight percent from the field and he shot thirty
nine thirty nine point seven percent from three. Do you
know who that man was that Canard is in this role? Now,
this guy earned this role down the stretch of the season.
That is the guy. That is the guy. Canard is
in that role. That's what we thought and that's what
one hundred percent. And with the handle, we thought we
were gonna get it. With the handle and the.
Speaker 3: Defense even a conference defense.
Speaker 1: Word defensively, I think, but minus the three point foul
that was questionable. I think Canard's played excellent defense. I
think he's been up there but been like because you
saw it in the.
Speaker 3: T what what's.
Speaker 1: And his mechanics for on point as you mentioned that
he was in the corner. But that's why I brought
up Trevin. They need a guy. But what when I
think of that fifth guy, what was the guy in
the corner. Canard has been in the corner. What came
off screens to It's not there with the mechanics and
how it's happening, because what mag was that guy? And
that's why be what he was able to do what
he did. I mean been looking at how many look
how many times he scored in double figures in the
season against Central Arkansas, against Queensy at fourteen, Mississippi at
twenty in the wild, what is it? You just look
at what he did. I mean, he had a career
high nineteen against UC Like, I just I think they
need Canard's gotta figure it out, Ben, sooner rather than later,
because he's supposed he has to provide points. Ben, he
has no choice. He has to provide points. Like I'm
looking at ten to eleven at nineteen thirteen. And that's
the thing. It's not even that he's scoring six points, Ben,
it's two of three from what is it the field?
Two of three from three, three of six from three,
Like that's what it is is Canards shots have to
burn the opposition, and I'm looking at them a what
of doing that? Like against Wyoming, Ben, he's four or
five from the field, But he's also three or four
from three like that's the reason, and Canard's not shooting
well from downtown and that's the issue, is he's in
that role. So I need to see better shooting from Canard.
That's a great stat, bay Mate. Maybe I need to
reach out the have to have him one because five
of twenty six fifty percent is atrocious and that's not
gonna help BYU win games when because look, man, we're
not talking about TC using Utah. We're talking about Texas Tech, Arizona, Kansas.
I agree with you, guys, that's gonna showcase itself in
about a week on Monday. That is it's it's going
to at the end of the month week and half
excuse me, and Kansas in two weeks is gonna be
the same thing. You have to have guys like that
limit the bleeding when other guys are getting locked up
and when they're gonna get the shots. And I've I've
been impressed by his defense, I've not been impressed by
the big moments where he's supposed to be able to
hit shots.
Speaker 3: How big of an issue is that dislocated pinky of
Rob Wright.
Speaker 1: I think it's fine.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because he looked fine.
Speaker 4: Non shooting out he didn't look great, but he looked
reasonable afterwards.
Speaker 3: Non shooting hand. He does have it taped, you know
what I mean. Looks a little disjointed, if you will.
How big of an issue is that kugrenation? Final SoundBite
from ky I believe where did things unravel? K Why
you were up nine and then uh they made six
seven straight baskets without missing. What happened?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you just nailed the shot making.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that this game is about making shots at the
end of the day, and obviously you got to stop
them from making shots. And they put a lot of
stress on you because they have talent. Uh, they're one
of the best offensive teams I think in the country
because of how much shooting they have along with two
dynamic players. And then and then on the flip side,
you know, we went cold and that that happens in games.
Speaker 3: Don't fret, like I said, Uh, in my opinion, it
was a great test that you're not at full strength.
And ultimately, if you you know, if you went at
home and against the bottom half of the conference on
the road, hopefully you split the road games against the
top half and you're good and I think that still
puts you in at like a three seed. Four seed.
You need to be a three seed to really make
a run to the final four. Like, if you want
to be a final four team at worst, you got
