Your best ability is your availability. 24 00:01:10,599 --> 00:01:13,680 Your health is your wealth. The healthiest offensive lines win 25 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,680 championships at the end of the year. If you're not healthy, uh, 26 00:01:16,719 --> 00:01:20,280 then you're not strong and you're not gonna win football games. 27 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,599 And so all I'm asking you to do is get 28 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:27,040 your preventative medicine. Spend a few few one hundred dollars 29 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:31,400 on prevention rather than post injury post surgical care.

Orthropros of Utah orthroprosoutah dot com. 33 00:01:41,879 --> 00:01:47,000 So there's been controversial commentaries, controversial things that have been 34 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:52,760 happening here in the state of Utah, and uh Mark 35 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:56,000 Harlan has been a bit in the crosshairs, if not 36 00:01:56,040 --> 00:02:02,000 only Utah fans, but BYU fans and for BYU fans 37 00:02:02,079 --> 00:02:03,640 is more kind of a joke thing. I mean, like, 38 00:02:03,799 --> 00:02:05,319 you know, they kind of poking fun out of whatever 39 00:02:05,319 --> 00:02:08,479 he does, how he's doing it, et cetera. Utah fans 40 00:02:08,479 --> 00:02:11,000 are kind of evaluating who they whether or not they 41 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,199 like this guy. Whether or not they see a future 42 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,759 with this athletic director. Sometimes they like him, sometimes they 43 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:22,599 dislike him. Anyway, he was called up from the bullpen 44 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,599 this last season. There was a little bit of a 45 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,840 controversy surrounding the College Football Playoff the selection committee. He 46 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,439 was called up from the bullpen to enter into the committee. 47 00:02:33,879 --> 00:02:37,039 BYU fans felt like this was a conflict of interest. 48 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:38,919 He wasn't going to advocate for BYU and by you 49 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:40,759 ended up getting left out of the committee. For all 50 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,680 those conspiracy theorists out there, they feel like maybe Mark 51 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,919 Carlin was not an advocate for the big twelve family members. 52 00:02:48,039 --> 00:02:48,759 Speaker 1: It is what it is. 53 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 4: But there's some I guess recent news here, Ronald three 54 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,000 Man Weaver that you've been monitoring. It sounds like Mark 55 00:02:55,039 --> 00:02:57,879 Carlin's going to be on the CFP committee again in 56 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,520 twenty twenty six. For secutive years now BYU has been 57 00:03:01,599 --> 00:03:05,000 left out with and without Harland on the committee, I believe, 58 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,680 but one more year if BYU is on the precipice, 59 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,319 this may not bode well, at least from the vantage 60 00:03:13,319 --> 00:03:15,879 point of blau fans for BYU. 61 00:03:16,439 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 5: Yeah. 62 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 6: Jeff Coles at the Desert News, who covers the University 63 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,199 of Utah Sports. He's the one that put the article 64 00:03:22,719 --> 00:03:25,560 out that after you know, serving of the college football 65 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,199 Selection Committee in the final months of the twenty twenty 66 00:03:28,199 --> 00:03:31,400 five season, he'll be back for the twenty twenty sixth season. 67 00:03:31,479 --> 00:03:33,560 They announced this on Monday. He will be one of 68 00:03:33,599 --> 00:03:38,599 thirteen members that determines which teams participate in the playoffs. 69 00:03:38,599 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 5: You know, as we. 70 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,759 Speaker 6: Said that, he's fulfilled the seat last year, you know, 71 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,080 with they looked at letter director Mack Rhodes took a 72 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,319 leave of absence for the personal reasons in November. 73 00:03:47,599 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 5: We know what the reasons were behind all of that. 74 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,719 Speaker 6: So yeah, look, he's one of six athletic directors on 75 00:03:52,719 --> 00:03:56,759 this year's committee, Arkansas's athletic director and then obviously the 76 00:03:56,759 --> 00:04:02,840 committee will return Louisiana's Brian Magaret, Nebraska's Troy Dannon, Middle 77 00:04:02,879 --> 00:04:09,159 Tennessee's Chris Morasso, Virginia Virginia's Carla Williams. So yeah, look, 78 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,439 I know people don't want to have Mark Harland on, 79 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,199 but look, you need representation from the Big twelve, and 80 00:04:16,319 --> 00:04:19,879 BYU was the first team out. And look, if he's 81 00:04:19,879 --> 00:04:21,759 gonna have he's gonna advocate for the You it's been. 82 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 5: We know that for sure. 83 00:04:22,879 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 6: But if ba's playing well and they're undefeated, whether Mark 84 00:04:27,079 --> 00:04:30,199 Harland likes by you or not, he's not gonna be 85 00:04:30,199 --> 00:04:32,639 at overlook that BA is gonna come in higher rank 86 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,160 than Utah. Rightfully so because of everything that they did, 87 00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:38,519 so they're gonna be in the mix. And I know 88 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,439 people aren't gonna like this, but in order right now, 89 00:04:40,519 --> 00:04:42,759 been at this stating point for the college football playoffs 90 00:04:42,879 --> 00:04:45,319 to understand for it to be good. If BAU and 91 00:04:45,439 --> 00:04:47,759 Utah are behind each other, that boats well. I know 92 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,839 people are gonna say no, Ron, it doesn't. But if 93 00:04:49,879 --> 00:04:52,759 they're gonna change the resume thing, if they're gonna change 94 00:04:52,759 --> 00:04:55,199 the goalpost and move it every week that they want to, 95 00:04:55,639 --> 00:04:58,560 the only possible way is to have someone who represents 96 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,040 the Big Twelve, even though it's the school of No 97 00:05:00,439 --> 00:05:02,439 and he doesn't like to lose. This is all gonna 98 00:05:02,439 --> 00:05:04,920 bode well. Been as long as BYU beats Utah, That's 99 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:06,839 how I look at it. As long as BYU has 100 00:05:06,879 --> 00:05:08,920 a better record than Utah on the Big Twelve, they 101 00:05:08,959 --> 00:05:11,560 beat Utah every single year, doesn't matter in my opinion, 102 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,519 how long he's on the committee, whether you like it 103 00:05:13,639 --> 00:05:15,079 or not, that's what it's gonna be. 104 00:05:15,199 --> 00:05:15,399 Speaker 2: Now. 105 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,279 Speaker 6: I know BAU fans can be like, Okay, replace Mark Carlon. 106 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,079 You know with Tom Homo, he's retired. It's not gonna 107 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,720 be the case. I don't think that would, ask Brian Santiago. 108 00:05:23,759 --> 00:05:25,360 I could be wrong about that, but I think right 109 00:05:25,399 --> 00:05:29,279 now been the representation for BYU and for the Big 110 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,680 Twelve as a conference looking bigger picture, this is the 111 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:32,439 best you're gonna get. 112 00:05:32,439 --> 00:05:33,399 Speaker 5: You need someone in the room. 113 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,079 Speaker 6: Yes, he's a ute, he's gonna push for them, but 114 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,759 like I said, my points of bou stays undefeated. They're 115 00:05:38,759 --> 00:05:42,360 playing good football, they're covering the spread. You know, they 116 00:05:42,439 --> 00:05:44,279 take care of all that. And I firmly believe it 117 00:05:44,319 --> 00:05:46,680 doesn't matter if he is an ad of Utah. I 118 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,000 think that'll bode well for BYU. 119 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:53,399 Speaker 4: Still man, I love your optimism, love the optimism. 120 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: I'm not convinced yet. 121 00:05:55,560 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 4: I'm not convinced that that he's got any love for 122 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:03,720 the coups. I mean, you saw him in the post game, 123 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,000 marching up to the to the to the microphone like 124 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:13,600 a tyrannical toddler, marching on to the field. Ronnie, come on, 125 00:06:14,519 --> 00:06:19,680 could have been penalized in a live play and you know, 126 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,839 let's say they would have returned it for that's that's. 127 00:06:22,639 --> 00:06:23,959 Speaker 5: The rivalry game yet. 128 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,439 Speaker 6: But I think he's not gonna do himself any favors 129 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,839 if you go in there, just if Bay is the 130 00:06:28,879 --> 00:06:31,519 only team that's winning in the Big twelve, if you 131 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:32,839 just say all right, no, I'm not gonna do like, 132 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,720 everybody's gonna look at you sideways like these other five 133 00:06:35,759 --> 00:06:38,199 athletic directors and he's the six will look at you. 134 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,279 Former cultures will look at you, uh differently. Gus Malzohon's 135 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,040 gonna be in the room. So I don't know. I 136 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,879 think they I think there's gonna be enough balance where 137 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,040 by you will get their credit. Now, of course they're 138 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:50,920 still gonna try to undermine and keep them, you know, 139 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,000 in that ten to twelve range and not have him 140 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,720 go up. But you need him, like I think that's 141 00:06:55,759 --> 00:06:57,360 the thing. You need him to some degree because of 142 00:06:57,439 --> 00:07:00,160 representation for the conference. If you if you're this is 143 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:01,959 I look at this as bad, like this is just 144 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,519 bad pr If you want to say, okay, remove Mark 145 00:07:04,519 --> 00:07:06,600 harl and have nobody represent the Big twelve and just 146 00:07:06,639 --> 00:07:07,759 have bo you doing on our own. 147 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:09,199 Speaker 5: I don't think that boats well. 148 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 6: I think having some representation does that because he's gonna 149 00:07:12,959 --> 00:07:15,519 have to be objective. Still, he can still be biased 150 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,360 if he wants, but you're gonna look goofy in the 151 00:07:17,439 --> 00:07:19,720 room if you don't lean objective. And like I said, 152 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,079 Bou beats Utah, he can't say, well, the one loss 153 00:07:22,079 --> 00:07:24,639 of Utah team, but it goes above under be like 154 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,519 he can't say that. Like and if you sit in 155 00:07:26,519 --> 00:07:29,839 the meeting, your counterparts, you know your your coworkers, who 156 00:07:29,839 --> 00:07:30,240 you work. 157 00:07:30,079 --> 00:07:31,079 Speaker 5: With, they're gonna look at you side. 158 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,199 Speaker 6: It's nobody on the committee can put a one loss 159 00:07:34,199 --> 00:07:36,319 to Utah team. Who loses the b YU and the 160 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,639 BO you are to beat an notre dame above you 161 00:07:38,639 --> 00:07:40,439 can't do that that late in November. Man, that's not 162 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:44,079 how that works. So I don't think it's possible. Like 163 00:07:44,199 --> 00:07:46,240 and that's not even just optimism. I think that's just 164 00:07:46,279 --> 00:07:49,199 pure facts. Even as a BYU guy, if Utah had 165 00:07:49,439 --> 00:07:52,240 beaten was undefeated and BA, you only had one loss 166 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:53,879 and it was the Utah and that beat them, and 167 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,680 they're right behind each other, the poles, they're gonna go 168 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,360 above them, Like that's just what happens in the nature of. 169 00:07:58,319 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 4: It that your college football report. I know BYU fans, 170 00:08:05,279 --> 00:08:08,279 they amongst cougarnation, may be feeling like this weeping, waiting 171 00:08:08,279 --> 00:08:11,480 and national teeth. With mister Harlan on the committee once again, 172 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,720 they feel like they're gonna be shafted, getting the short 173 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,800 end of the stick once again in twenty twenty six, 174 00:08:18,839 --> 00:08:21,040 twenty twenty seven, they're gonna be knocking on the door 175 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:26,240 and then be found wanting due to not having enough 176 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:30,519 advocacy on that committee.

That's that's that's false. I 217 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:38,360 saw a recent report that said that AJ's payroll was 218 00:10:38,759 --> 00:10:40,519 his payday was around four point four. 219 00:10:40,519 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's accurate. 220 00:10:41,519 --> 00:10:44,799 Speaker 4: I had projected in that low four range for AJ, 221 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,240 and then when you couple in all his NIL deals, 222 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,679 he could probably get up to that seven million dollar 223 00:10:50,799 --> 00:10:55,240 mark that some people were reporting. Multiple news sources around 224 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,000 the country were prognosticating that that was the number that 225 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:02,039 he was making between it all his W nine and 226 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,720 your ten ninety nine income, as well as his his sponsorships, 227 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,799 et cetera. But you know, I think I think by 228 00:11:09,919 --> 00:11:11,840 U basketball this year was probably anywhere from ten to 229 00:11:11,919 --> 00:11:16,120 thirteen million as an entire roster. That's my my feeling, 230 00:11:16,159 --> 00:11:19,279 that's my that's kind of how I how you know 231 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,159 what I've been told and whether or not that that 232 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,519 number is right, you know, But I think that's a 233 00:11:25,039 --> 00:11:26,919 I mean, I'm being conservative for I think it's probably 234 00:11:26,919 --> 00:11:28,840 in between that ten to thirteen. And I do think 235 00:11:28,879 --> 00:11:32,320 the player payroll for basketball was actually higher than the 236 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:37,360 football payroll. I think that one hundred percent last year. 237 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,080 We'll see what happens this year. At any rate, I 238 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:41,559 want to get into this scugar bite.

And 276 00:13:27,279 --> 00:13:29,360 that goes with a lot of guys on our team. 277 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,120 We we didn't get to play the way that we 278 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,000 planned to, We didn't get to play with the personnel 279 00:13:34,039 --> 00:13:37,559 we planned to, and all of that changed, and I 280 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,080 think our guys uh raised up and they made the 281 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,360 very very best of a of a complicated, difficult situation 282 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:46,840 roster wise and health wise, and I can be more 283 00:13:46,879 --> 00:13:50,879 proud of them.

It was a Saturday 377 00:18:24,079 --> 00:18:28,000 Sunday thing, and uh, I'll be honest, I kind of 378 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:28,680 tweaked my ankle. 379 00:18:28,759 --> 00:18:29,440 Speaker 1: That was my listener. 380 00:18:29,519 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 4: And my dad said, hey, if you want to go, 381 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,319 you can do it. But I don't support it. But 382 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:35,799 letting you make your own decisions, okay, if you if 383 00:18:35,799 --> 00:18:37,680 you don't want to keep the sabbathday.

We had to learn the 387 00:18:43,839 --> 00:18:44,839 lesson the hard way. 388 00:18:45,279 --> 00:18:48,880 Speaker 4: Uh, let's get into a couple more cougar bytes. Got well, 389 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:53,480 this is more of a college basketball bite affect. Okay, 390 00:18:53,519 --> 00:18:59,680 Tommy Lloyd on his name coming up as the noon 391 00:18:59,799 --> 00:19:01,920 Arra North Carolina coach, this is what he had to 392 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:03,599 say about it. He could be could he be taking 393 00:19:03,599 --> 00:19:06,880 his talents from you of A to North Carolina? 394 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:07,839 Speaker 1: Raise up. 395 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 12: When you made that comment in San Jose about there's 396 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:17,279 gonna be a great coach after me. 397 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 5: I know you've made similar. 398 00:19:18,319 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 12: Comments like that before about the program history. But some 399 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,119 people who think taking them to think, well, maybe maybe 400 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,200 he's gonna go. So what do you make of that? 401 00:19:27,319 --> 00:19:29,279 And has anything changed me? And as there's still is 402 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:30,319 talk out there. 403 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,640 Speaker 13: It's absolutely true, there's gonna be another coach. This is 404 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,440 a great program. I didn't say when. 405 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:37,839 Speaker 5: You know, I mean, and. 406 00:19:38,079 --> 00:19:41,279 Speaker 13: People are gonna speculate all they want. Guys, this team 407 00:19:41,319 --> 00:19:45,720 has my full focus. Nothing nothing, I promise you, nothing 408 00:19:45,799 --> 00:19:48,680 is knocking me off that path. And and you, guys 409 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:52,240 might calm distractions because you're distracted. That doesn't mean I'm 410 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,359 distracted or we're distracted. You know what's pretty cool once 411 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,480 you get some experience in this deal and you're a 412 00:19:57,519 --> 00:19:59,519 player or you're a coach who's been at it a while, 413 00:20:00,039 --> 00:20:03,240 you get pretty good at, you know, eliminating the distractions. 414 00:20:03,279 --> 00:20:05,440 So I think I'm pretty good at that. And uh, 415 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:07,519 i just can't wait to get the practice today. I'm 416 00:20:07,519 --> 00:20:09,279 gonna go meet with the staff right now. We're probably 417 00:20:09,319 --> 00:20:11,319 a little bit late. That's why Nate's pushing me to 418 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,200 get up there. And uh, and I'm going to go 419 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:15,400 try to have a good practice. 420 00:20:16,759 --> 00:20:18,519 Speaker 4: Okay, do you feel like he's getting a little salty 421 00:20:18,519 --> 00:20:19,319 about all these uses? 422 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,839 Speaker 6: He definitely getting salty, hundred percent. Every coach get salty. 423 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,519 He's getting salty. Kilina got salty in his thing. Yet No, 424 00:20:24,599 --> 00:20:27,119 it's like he's salty. That's what it is. Because again, 425 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,480 you know how this goes away. Ben and I there's 426 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,720 a guy who I graduated, Carter, Carter Bond. He put out, Tommy, 427 00:20:32,759 --> 00:20:34,119 you can make you go away, And this is not 428 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,599 my take. This is you could say I'm not leaving Arizona. 429 00:20:38,279 --> 00:20:41,200 I'm staying here and I'm staying put. You know why 430 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:42,920 he doesn't say that, Ben, and we say this, you 431 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,079 know what the question I would have asked, Hey, Tommy, 432 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:47,680 is there a reason that you haven't said that you're 433 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,079 staying and staying put in not taking another coaching job 434 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,759 because you're trying to leverage your contract. That that's the 435 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,039 question I would have asked, because that's the reason he's 436 00:20:55,079 --> 00:20:57,279 not saying that. And I get tired and serious, I 437 00:20:57,279 --> 00:20:59,960 get freaking tired of these coaches bull jobbing us immediate. 438 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:00,839 Speaker 5: You're distracted. 439 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 1: We're not distracted, dude, we know darn well what it is. 440 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 5: I'm not stupid. 441 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 6: You're not saying that you're not gonna leave because if 442 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,960 you win a national championship you want to go back 443 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:11,799 to the table and says, okay, well I will leave 444 00:21:12,039 --> 00:21:14,519 for that job. This is how business works. Like Tommy, 445 00:21:14,559 --> 00:21:16,759 don't get mad at the media, like it's our job 446 00:21:16,799 --> 00:21:19,160 to ask that we're supposed to keep you on us 447 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:20,680 and do that. If you want to get mad, then 448 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:22,559 go talk to your ad Go talk to the donors. 449 00:21:22,799 --> 00:21:24,319 Those are the people because you guys can have this 450 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:26,599 wrapped up. You could easily have this wrapped up. Tommy 451 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,039 Lloyd has a new extension deal. But no, you're trying 452 00:21:29,039 --> 00:21:31,079 to win a national championship. You're trying to leverage that 453 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,079 and if they don't give you what you want, or 454 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,720 you do lose, then you can bounce like cause that's 455 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,720 what I firmly believe. I frombly believe if he gets 456 00:21:37,759 --> 00:21:39,759 as far and he doesn't win, then I believe he's out. 457 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,079 But I believe if they win then they'll stay in 458 00:21:42,079 --> 00:21:44,240 the conference. Still be a pain to BYU because he's 459 00:21:44,279 --> 00:21:46,279 a great coach under the mark future if you don't 460 00:21:46,279 --> 00:21:48,240 know where he comes from. But man, no, I'm just 461 00:21:48,279 --> 00:21:51,599 I'm over this with coaches. Stop being salty, don't. You're 462 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,960 not mad at us, you're mad at something else. If 463 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,640 you don't, you can make it go away. I always 464 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:57,960 say that you have the power to make it go away. 465 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:00,640 And again, like Ben said, you never said no. You 466 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:01,720 never said no in my. 467 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 5: Opinion, so it is what it is. 468 00:22:04,279 --> 00:22:06,279 Speaker 6: But I will say this, if he does go away 469 00:22:06,279 --> 00:22:09,440 from the conference, Ben, I don't know who Arizona would get, 470 00:22:09,799 --> 00:22:13,240 but it would help be YU because they got everybody 471 00:22:13,279 --> 00:22:15,599 this year been they even got Kelvin Samson. And if 472 00:22:15,599 --> 00:22:18,079 he stays after winning a national championship, that's good for 473 00:22:18,079 --> 00:22:20,079 the Big Twelve Conference, but that's gonna be tough for 474 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:21,559 BYU year inning and out. 475 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:26,799 Speaker 4: No doubt about it. Look, do we want Tommy Lloyd 476 00:22:26,839 --> 00:22:28,079 to leave, yes and no. 477 00:22:28,519 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: Right. 478 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:32,759 Speaker 4: Yes, to maybe be at the top of the food 479 00:22:32,799 --> 00:22:34,720 chain at the Big twelve would be nice, but no, 480 00:22:34,839 --> 00:22:36,200 you want to keep it competitive if you want to 481 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,759 be in the best league in America, to go through 482 00:22:38,759 --> 00:22:43,160 that refiner's fire. And Tommy Lloyd has definitely he has 483 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,240 done a fantastic job there at you of a And 484 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:47,799 all my brothers would be pretty kicked off if he 485 00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,920 left anyway, and that impacts me and my. 486 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 1: Family at any rate. 487 00:22:52,519 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 4: Sean Farnham hopped onto BYU Sports Nation and discuss what 488 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,359 are some of the biggest needs for BYU men's basketball 489 00:22:59,839 --> 00:23:01,519 in the transfer portal. 490 00:23:01,559 --> 00:23:03,759 Speaker 1: It's a topic of conversation we've been broaching at our show. 491 00:23:03,839 --> 00:23:07,559 Speaker 4: What does Sean Farnham college basketball analysts have to say 492 00:23:07,599 --> 00:23:08,359 about it? 493 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:09,559 Speaker 3: Size? 494 00:23:09,599 --> 00:23:13,839 Speaker 14: Size, productive size and look, I know, okay, why I 495 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:14,400 want shooting. 496 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,640 Speaker 3: You're gonna find shooting. But they need size. 497 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:23,319 Speaker 14: And you look at Michigan extremely long, athletic depth to 498 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,559 protect the rim, rebounds at a high clip, their defensive 499 00:23:26,599 --> 00:23:29,880 efficiency number one in the country, number two in the 500 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,720 country's Arizona the defensive end of the floor, Like, what 501 00:23:32,759 --> 00:23:34,599 do they have? They have size on top of size. 502 00:23:34,599 --> 00:23:37,920 They win the rebounding more they win points in the paint. Okay, 503 00:23:38,039 --> 00:23:41,200 let's go to Illinois. Illinois in a really good offensive 504 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,720 rebounding team. They've got multiple guys that are six foot 505 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:47,119 eleven that are productive around the basket. If you want 506 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:50,480 to be elite in college basketball, you have to have size. 507 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,440 It's different than the NBA. In the NBA and nowadays 508 00:23:53,519 --> 00:23:55,160 that the floor space and everything else, it's kind of 509 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,880 changed a little bit, but in the college game it's 510 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,079 still a little bit traditional. Like if you can how 511 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:01,799 Man eight points in the paint, if you can get 512 00:24:01,839 --> 00:24:04,920 extra possessions because of your ability to offensive remount. Look 513 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,480 at the one seeds across the board, Florida great size. 514 00:24:07,519 --> 00:24:11,839 Yeah they got upset, but great size, great length underneath. 515 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:13,319 Speaker 3: Go look at Duke. 516 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:17,640 Speaker 14: Duke had great size with Patrick Gungba and Cam Boozer. Like, 517 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,160 you have to have production down low if you're going 518 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,160 to be successful in the NCAA tournament. 519 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,599 Speaker 1: Okay, So I love this take. I think it's spot on. 520 00:24:28,559 --> 00:24:31,880 Speaker 4: I'll do an equivalency take here, Like in college football, 521 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:35,359 the running back, a premier running back and NFL running 522 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:38,079 back can get you to double digit wins if they're 523 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:41,319 healthy right, and they typically can't stay healthier in college 524 00:24:41,319 --> 00:24:44,200 football than they do in the Nflber you're going against 525 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,279 the one percent in the NFL, and those linebackers are 526 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:48,839 just as big, just as strong, just as fast as 527 00:24:48,839 --> 00:24:54,039 some of those running backs in college football. Still like 528 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,839 you can win football games through the run game. They 529 00:24:57,960 --> 00:24:59,480 changed the dynamics of your team. 530 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 1: We saw it. We have LJ. Martin the last couple 531 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:01,839 of years. 532 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,119 Speaker 4: We saw with tyler Ow's year in the in the 533 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,240 twenty twenty twenty twenty one season. 534 00:25:07,319 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 1: So you kidding me? 535 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 4: Like having tyler Ow's year in NFL running back a 536 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,200 mid round NFL draft pick. I mean he he won 537 00:25:13,279 --> 00:25:17,680 football games for byu periods like he put boy on 538 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:18,559 his back sometimes. 539 00:25:18,599 --> 00:25:20,519 Speaker 1: Okay, it was very impressive. 540 00:25:20,559 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 4: So I think the big man, like the big man five, 541 00:25:24,519 --> 00:25:28,960 that seven footer that in college basketball though, like the 542 00:25:29,039 --> 00:25:31,240 NBA used to be a big man's lead the eighties 543 00:25:31,279 --> 00:25:33,680 and nineties and maybe even the early two thousands, but 544 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:37,000 then it became more of a shooting league. Right space, 545 00:25:38,279 --> 00:25:41,920 you know, just just spreading the floor five out and 546 00:25:42,319 --> 00:25:45,319 stretch four, stretch five, et cetera. It's not to say 547 00:25:45,319 --> 00:25:50,039 that big men don't have a role in in the NBA, 548 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,200 but it's just not as impactful as it once was. 549 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,599 Was shot blocking and back to the basket basketball. The 550 00:25:55,599 --> 00:25:59,160 Shaquille O'Neals, the Kimmi mctumbo's, the Achema Lajah wants that, 551 00:25:59,279 --> 00:26:01,680 David rob and sins Right, that's what I grew up 552 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,960 in and these were first overall NBA draft picks. 553 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:05,279 Speaker 1: Okay. 554 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:09,680 Speaker 4: I remember in college though, like guys that didn't have 555 00:26:10,279 --> 00:26:14,640 a tremendous amount of like NBA success, they would be 556 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:20,240 really good in dominating college and lead their teams to 557 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:26,880 Final fours and national championships. I remember Big Country, Big 558 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:33,200 Country Bryant Reeves seven foot, two hundred and ninety pounds, right, 559 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:39,079 just a big, burly boy. Big country is what he 560 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:45,119 was called. Man and uh man, he was fantastic. Reeves 561 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,039 was an imposing physical presses on the Gordon was prime 562 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:50,400 to become a dominant center in the NBA. Had a 563 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,279 strong collegiate career with Oklahoma State University, where he averaged 564 00:26:53,279 --> 00:26:57,200 twenty one point five points per game as a senior 565 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:00,599 and led Oklahoma State to the nineteen ninety. 566 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 1: Five to Final four. He was okay in the NBA. Okay, 567 00:27:04,519 --> 00:27:05,240 he was all right. 568 00:27:05,279 --> 00:27:08,759 Speaker 4: He was an NBAL Rookie second team in ninety six 569 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:14,640 and that was about it. Played six seasons with the Grizzlies, 570 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:18,599 average thirteen point three points per game, solid rookie season, 571 00:27:18,759 --> 00:27:20,599 and he evered sixteen point two points per game in 572 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,359 ninety six ninety seven season. Was subsequently awarded with a 573 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,480 six year sixty one eight. I mean, he had success, 574 00:27:25,519 --> 00:27:29,440 there's no doubt. But he was dominant in college basketball. 575 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,720 And that's what a big seven footer can do that 576 00:27:31,839 --> 00:27:34,559 has some skill and right now, that's what b what 577 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,079 he's looking for, and that's what Sean Farnham's looking at. 578 00:27:37,319 --> 00:27:40,960 And Kyle Collinsworth, by the way, Kyle Collinsworth is all 579 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,799 in on the Saint Mary's transfer. He is all in 580 00:27:45,519 --> 00:27:50,720 on getting a seven footer that can be fantastic with 581 00:27:50,759 --> 00:27:54,599 his back to the basket and also be heavily involved 582 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,759 in that high pick and roll game. So that's what 583 00:27:57,839 --> 00:28:00,880 Kyle's looking for. That's what Kyle wants. He even posted 584 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:06,119 some highlights of the big man from Saint Mary's that 585 00:28:06,519 --> 00:28:11,440 he would like to see come to Provo. McKeever, right, McKiever, 586 00:28:11,519 --> 00:28:13,359 that could be going to ASU, by the way, with 587 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,960 Randy Bennett, but your thoughts, your commentary follow up, Ronald 588 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:16,720 the three man Weaver. 589 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, look what if I always said, I will stay 590 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:19,400 true to this. 591 00:28:19,759 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 6: The best thing about Kevin Young is the NBA and 592 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,519 all this experience and everything. The worst thing about Kevin 593 00:28:24,519 --> 00:28:26,720 Young is the NBA, in the experience and all that 594 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,359 it can be with. Look, your greatest strength been could 595 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,200 sometimes be your greatest weakness, pride, Right, it could get 596 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:32,519 in the way. 597 00:28:32,519 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 5: I've learned that like the gift of gap. 598 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:36,759 Speaker 6: My dad always says, but it can get me into trouble, 599 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:38,640 but could also get me out of trouble. It's a 600 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,599 lot of stuff, and it could be with this take 601 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,000 and what I've already said. But look the reason why 602 00:28:43,039 --> 00:28:45,279 I kept saying, if you just want to have insanity, 603 00:28:45,799 --> 00:28:47,680 then you're gonna keep getting the same results. They had 604 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:49,920 a great run to the Sweet sixteen last season, but 605 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:54,480 it's been insanity even having undersized guys do that, because 606 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,480 even in the NBA he had guys that could shoot 607 00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,960 the three that were six ten, six eleven. But that's 608 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,200 that's his style, that's what he wants and I'm sorry, 609 00:29:02,279 --> 00:29:03,680 that's just that's not gonna work. 610 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:05,359 Speaker 5: They will continue to lose and. 611 00:29:05,279 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 6: They will continue to not be able to compete at 612 00:29:07,279 --> 00:29:09,480 the highest level with these teams. And you're not talking 613 00:29:09,519 --> 00:29:12,039 about the Sweet six teams. You're talking about opportunity to 614 00:29:12,039 --> 00:29:13,480 be in the elite and go to a final four 615 00:29:13,559 --> 00:29:15,400 year in a year out with this coach that can 616 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:16,200 develop talent. 617 00:29:16,559 --> 00:29:17,839 Speaker 5: And Sean Farnham, who I. 618 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 6: Think Kevin Younger would expect, and everybody down at BYU 619 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,000 and those who played the game, and who's one of 620 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,160 ESPN's top college basketball analysts. What do you say three 621 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,920 times in a rows, size size, productive size and he 622 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,599 listed all the teams. So I'm gonna reiterate it all 623 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,839 off season for the fifty fifth time. And thank you 624 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:35,519 Sean for saying shooting will come. 625 00:29:35,599 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 5: That will come. 626 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:40,039 Speaker 6: If you want to focus on shooting, can continue this stretch. 627 00:29:40,119 --> 00:29:43,759 Five six' ten, undersized sixt eight sixt' NINE byu will 628 00:29:43,759 --> 00:29:46,359 continue to get killed in the most important, games in 629 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,160 the crucial. Moments because The texas, GAME i DON'T i 630 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,519 don't think it had anything to do With texas playing 631 00:29:51,559 --> 00:29:53,240 the game.

It and they 634 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,559 had nobody that could look to on that bench that 635 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:03,720 could put their back to the, basket that could put 636 00:30:03,759 --> 00:30:06,119 him in foul trouble on, score that could rebound with, 637 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,599 them and that could stop his. Shot they didn't have. 638 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,559 That if they had one third of, it you need 639 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,440 all three pieces of the. Puzzle So i'm.
