seed arena? Isn't that crazy? Uh?

00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,600
Speaker 2: Fifteen thousand? Yes, it seems pretty major.

00:05:11,879 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: They're not even playing it, which y'all say they're playing

They're my guys. You're my guys.

67
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,079
Speaker 1: I said a rough night sleeping George you are you?

68
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 5: Are?

69
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:03,439
Speaker 1: You cranky? For some reason?

70
00:06:03,439 --> 00:06:03,879
Speaker 6: This morning?

71
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 5: I've had better sleeps, you know?

72
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,480
Speaker 1: Okay, at least at least your game story was written

73
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:13,839
ten minutes after the game started.

74
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, how about that? That one was done probably probably

75
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,560
only a little bit behind the uh Gonzaga beat rider

76
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:23,800
when when when they went up twenty seven to three

77
00:06:23,879 --> 00:06:28,959
on Georgia? So yeah, Uh, pretty much quick order for

78
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,000
for Houston, they looked the part of a number one

79
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,120
seed and kind of, you know, mission accomplished. Do you

80
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:36,759
want to go out and be if you're a number

81
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:38,879
one seeds, you want to go out in that opener,

82
00:06:39,319 --> 00:06:43,360
assert yourself, not have a close call. Uh, get some

83
00:06:43,399 --> 00:06:45,680
guys some rests because you're gonna have a tough one

84
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,000
in the second round. So yeah, I would say that

85
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:52,120
everything they needed to accomplish uh in round one they did.

86
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 1: So let me ask you this. Uh. I know there

87
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,399
was a long stretch in the second half where they

88
00:06:58,399 --> 00:07:00,759
did not score, but again and there were some guys

89
00:07:00,759 --> 00:07:03,720
that were getting rest. Was there anything discouraging about yesterday

90
00:07:03,759 --> 00:07:07,560
for you? Or was it there's nothing really super positive

91
00:07:07,639 --> 00:07:09,759
that you can get out of playing SIU Edwardsville in

92
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:10,439
the first round.

93
00:07:11,439 --> 00:07:14,199
Speaker 5: No, I wouldn't read too much into what happened. Yeah,

94
00:07:14,279 --> 00:07:17,519
you're right. They cleared the bench with about ten minutes

95
00:07:17,639 --> 00:07:22,279
left in the game, guys that normally wouldn't get playing time,

96
00:07:22,319 --> 00:07:25,319
and frankly, guys that you probably won't see much of

97
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,480
any of the rest of the tournament. I was amazed.

98
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,920
I think they missed sixteen out of seventeen shots at

99
00:07:30,959 --> 00:07:35,079
one point in the second half. But think about this,

100
00:07:35,319 --> 00:07:38,759
Houston could have gone scoreless the entire second half and

101
00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:40,720
still won the game with the lead that they had

102
00:07:40,759 --> 00:07:42,959
at halftime. So that sort of blew my mind of

103
00:07:43,519 --> 00:07:45,920
the dominance that they had the first half. They shot

104
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,439
over sixty percent. You got what you needed out of

105
00:07:48,519 --> 00:07:54,120
Jaywon Roberts testing that ankle. Silos was milos, LJ was LJ.

106
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,480
I mean they basically it was a twenty minute game.

107
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,800
They did what they needed to do and Kelvin's not

108
00:08:00,839 --> 00:08:04,959
gonna lose a minute sleep over what what you know.

109
00:08:05,439 --> 00:08:08,800
Shortcomings there there may have been there in the second half,

110
00:08:08,839 --> 00:08:11,680
just because that's that's not the Houston team that that

111
00:08:11,759 --> 00:08:13,160
you'll see most nights anyway.

112
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: So most the guys that were kind of aching had

113
00:08:16,079 --> 00:08:17,959
aches and pains or in the cold tub. I'm assuming

114
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:19,959
pretty much after the game is over Worth uh. I

115
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:21,639
know you'll be visiting with them, some of the folks

116
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:23,759
later today, but they're as healthy as they can be

117
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:25,279
going into this game against Gonzaga.

118
00:08:25,279 --> 00:08:28,879
Speaker 5: Correct, Yeah, exactly. And you know with with Roberts, that

119
00:08:29,079 --> 00:08:31,160
was the key. You sat him out the two games

120
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,360
at the Big Twelve Tournament, which was the right decision,

121
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:37,399
and you wanted to get him some minutes uh in

122
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,600
the in the opener just to one get the russ

123
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,039
off and to see where he's.

124
00:08:40,919 --> 00:08:43,879
Speaker 7: At and watching him and pre game that looked like

125
00:08:43,919 --> 00:08:46,759
there was a little tenderness, but nothing that you say

126
00:08:46,879 --> 00:08:49,519
that this could be a lingering problem for the rest

127
00:08:49,519 --> 00:08:51,720
of the tournament, And that's saying thing because Houston's had

128
00:08:51,759 --> 00:08:52,399
injuries in the.

129
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 5: Past that have just been nagging and have just carried

130
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,519
the one tire way through. So I thought that was

131
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,080
very promising that Jaywon Roberts got out there, played about

132
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,000
you know, twenty minutes, look good on some of the

133
00:09:06,039 --> 00:09:09,320
moves that he does there in the post, and everybody

134
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,639
else is good. So yeah, that's a good sign because

135
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,320
you're gonna need all hands on deck Saturday against a

136
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,559
very underseeded Gonzaga.

137
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 1: Joseph Towarte Houston Chronicle with us here on Sports Talks

138
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,759
that I joining us from Wichita, So I know you

139
00:09:24,799 --> 00:09:27,840
are gathering audio and writing your story. How much did

140
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,159
you get to see directly of the game that with

141
00:09:30,279 --> 00:09:32,919
Gonzaga and if you have may maybe just happen to

142
00:09:32,919 --> 00:09:35,679
see it on television. Any initial thoughts about them because

143
00:09:36,279 --> 00:09:38,559
that is obviously a round two matchup that a lot

144
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,759
of people are like. As you said, underseated is probably

145
00:09:41,799 --> 00:09:44,679
the term as being most associated with the Bulldogs.

146
00:09:44,919 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, he is the number three overall seed and they

147
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,159
did not get treated like it with this bracket. This

148
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,759
is a game that you could see in the Elite eight.

149
00:09:52,799 --> 00:09:56,080
I know it's not Gonzaga of Old, but it's still

150
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,519
you know, metrics wise, I think they're number nine or

151
00:09:58,519 --> 00:10:01,720
eight and Ken tom So to see this game, this

152
00:10:01,759 --> 00:10:03,480
could be one of the top three or four games

153
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,960
of the entire tournament. And we're not even to the

154
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,879
second weekend yet. But to answer your question, just watching them, Matt, uh,

155
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:14,200
they're They're very athletic, They're very long, They they run,

156
00:10:14,399 --> 00:10:17,240
you know, they they they have a fast pace to them.

157
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,039
And that's going to be interesting because you know, I

158
00:10:20,159 --> 00:10:23,320
kind of equate equate their style, uh to maybe like

159
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,879
a BYU or Arizona, and those are the teams that

160
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:30,279
Houston did well against this year. Houston sort of makes you,

161
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,799
uh been to to their will and then the style

162
00:10:33,919 --> 00:10:35,960
that they play, and I think that's kind of what

163
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,639
you're gonna need that to happen. You're not gonna be

164
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,559
able to let them get into the eighties and have

165
00:10:41,639 --> 00:10:44,000
a lot of possessions. You're gonna have to bring the

166
00:10:44,039 --> 00:10:46,799
game down into the sixties where you're more comfortable that

167
00:10:46,799 --> 00:10:50,679
that blue collar, nitty gritty uh you know, just get

168
00:10:50,799 --> 00:10:53,320
down in dirty type game and and and low scoring.

169
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,960
So just watching them, you know, Kalife battle is going

170
00:10:57,039 --> 00:11:00,960
to be a load. Uh. Gradmite is another guy that

171
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:03,759
you know, he's averaging close to a double double if

172
00:11:03,799 --> 00:11:06,720
not or They've got some players on this team. And

173
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:08,919
you know the interesting thing, both teams in the last

174
00:11:08,919 --> 00:11:11,159
eight years have the you know, they're both the winningest

175
00:11:11,159 --> 00:11:13,679
programs in the country with two hundred and thirty nine wins.

176
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,600
Dog has been the nine straight Sweet sixteens. US have

177
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:20,559
been to five this this is a heavyweight matchup in

178
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:22,799
round two, so buckle up.

179
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,200
Speaker 1: I'm curious Annal of Mark. Few will address this at

180
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,840
all today if they've seen anybody as physical as you

181
00:11:30,919 --> 00:11:32,399
of age. I mean, we always talk about who the

182
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:36,320
Cougars are facing. H Look, I'm not trying to stereotype

183
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,240
West Coast Conference teams, but in the WCC, if you

184
00:11:39,279 --> 00:11:41,639
looked at the last twenty or so years, it's up

185
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,639
and down the court first to eighty. It's not it's

186
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:49,240
more of a finesse up, perimeter shooting teams, not the

187
00:11:49,279 --> 00:11:51,960
boy big bulky low post presence that you of h

188
00:11:52,039 --> 00:11:52,720
can throw at him.

189
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,759
Speaker 5: Right, And you know, whether it's been Tommy Lloyd or

190
00:11:56,919 --> 00:12:00,279
Bill self or or any number of teams Mark Hope,

191
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,799
they've all said the same thing. You don't see the

192
00:12:04,919 --> 00:12:10,240
brand of physical bruising, just defense and rebounds that that

193
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:14,519
Houston throws at you. There's if I'm another team preparing

194
00:12:14,879 --> 00:12:18,799
for Houston, I can't simulate that. That's very hard to simulate.

195
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,960
And I think that's where the advantage comes in because

196
00:12:22,159 --> 00:12:25,159
you're right, there are teams out there that that can

197
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,120
look similar with the fast paced that you know, all

198
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,759
that stuff, But but Houston just takes it to another

199
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,039
dimension with all that stuff. And then oh, by the way,

200
00:12:33,279 --> 00:12:35,639
they've got shooters now, they can hit the three, they're

201
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,960
over forty percent. They've got three or four guys. They

202
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,039
got three or four guys that on any nine can

203
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,960
put up fifteen to twenty points. And that's something they

204
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,799
haven't had in the past. But yeah, the aspect of

205
00:12:49,279 --> 00:12:53,399
having the game plan around a defense that just and

206
00:12:53,399 --> 00:12:55,320
and the hustle points as they call it, the hustle

207
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:59,000
stat you don't get that and a lot of places

208
00:12:59,039 --> 00:13:01,480
that's very many at all, And I mean, I think

209
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,559
that's what separates Houston, especially when you get into the

210
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,960
tournament this time of year, when you.

211
00:13:06,879 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 1: Were you've been on the UHBAT for a long time.

212
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,840
Joseph Torte with us here, we were, I mean, honestly,

213
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,840
I mean, as a Cougar fan was afraid of Kansas.

214
00:13:15,919 --> 00:13:19,159
I mean, this was the most dominant basketball team in

215
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,720
this league for a long period of time. National championship

216
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,080
a few years ago. They've been basically on the map

217
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:28,519
for about forty years. They looked pedestrian. Yesterday, they looked pedestrian.

218
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,840
Over the course of the year. What do you know

219
00:13:30,879 --> 00:13:32,759
if you know anything about what happened to Kansas, Not

220
00:13:32,799 --> 00:13:34,200
that we're gonna send a whole lot of time about it,

221
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,559
but you of age, it took them literally a year

222
00:13:37,759 --> 00:13:40,840
to be the most dominant team in this otherwise very

223
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:42,039
good basketball conference.

224
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:47,759
Speaker 5: Yeah, looking from the outside in, it might be a combination.

225
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,000
I think they might have whisked a little bit on

226
00:13:50,639 --> 00:13:56,679
portal and the developing aspect. Maybe it didn't it wasn't

227
00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,720
the right mix or guys needed it a little bit

228
00:13:59,759 --> 00:14:02,120
longer or now. Now Hunter Dickinson is a great player,

229
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,960
came back this year. Guy like a kJ Adams, guys

230
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:11,600
like that. But it just you know, you watch Houston

231
00:14:11,639 --> 00:14:14,840
every day and you see how they prepare and how

232
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,960
they are, Uh they just stay out work you. And

233
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,919
then you see Kansas one night where after the game

234
00:14:22,039 --> 00:14:24,759
all the alums are saying put the managers in. They

235
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,840
might have more heart and more effort than the actual players.

236
00:14:28,879 --> 00:14:31,480
So it was a really weird year to go from

237
00:14:31,519 --> 00:14:37,399
preseason one to unranked to bounce out of the tournament. So, uh,

238
00:14:37,519 --> 00:14:39,080
you know, I look at it as you know, this

239
00:14:39,159 --> 00:14:41,639
is a changing of the guard. Houston has dominated this

240
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,799
league in two years. I don't think they're going anywhere

241
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,159
anytime soon. And that's the new reality of this league.

242
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:52,759
You have to go through Houston until further notice. And

243
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,519
who would have thought that. I thought they'd be good,

244
00:14:55,879 --> 00:14:57,679
and I thought they'd compete and be at the top,

245
00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,840
but I didn't think that they would just steamroll in.

246
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,919
And so they basically went into your house, Matt Thomas,

247
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,159
took your remote control, sat down on your favorite recliner,

248
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,960
put it on their channel to you know, took all

249
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,840
your movies out. This is their home now, this is

250
00:15:11,879 --> 00:15:15,200
their house and the Big twelve. That's that's what they're

251
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:16,879
gonna have to be faced with moving forward.

252
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,159
Speaker 1: I got thirty seconds left if your mark few and

253
00:15:20,159 --> 00:15:23,440
you were staring at you of h game tape? Where's

254
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,480
the Achilles here on the on the Cougar squad? Did

255
00:15:25,519 --> 00:15:27,200
you see this playing the second round game?

256
00:15:28,799 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 5: I think that song go at them, hit him in

257
00:15:32,279 --> 00:15:36,120
foul trouble. I think especially with the bigs like a

258
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:39,600
Francis or Tuggler, I would go at them immediately, try

259
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,399
to get them on the bench because that if there's

260
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,639
an issue, it's staying on the court, and there they

261
00:15:46,639 --> 00:15:48,919
struggle when they don't have their full compliment.

262
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 1: All right, get some rest of man. We'll look forward

263
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,480
to reading your coverage tomorrow in the Houston Chronicle.

264
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 5: Thank you, buddy.

265
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:59,399
Speaker 1: That's Joseph Torte from the Houston Chronicle with us from Wichita.
