Evening edition of Cougar Spurts are gonna get spiritual today

50
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:37,879
because when when things go awry, when things begin to

51
00:02:38,199 --> 00:02:42,360
fall apart, you turn your heart to DNY. You're like,

52
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:47,400
Heavenly Father, help help me, you know. And BYU, we're

53
00:02:47,479 --> 00:02:50,479
experiencing a little bit of adversity right now. We're on

54
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,039
a losing streak. We spent a decent amount of money

55
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:59,719
on our staff and our donor base, our corporate entities

56
00:02:59,759 --> 00:03:02,400
that booy up BYU Athletics. They spend some money on

57
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:05,319
the on the on the personnel, on the roster. And

58
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,319
when you spend money, you have high expectations. And when

59
00:03:09,319 --> 00:03:12,879
you fall short of expectations, that's when there is weeping,

60
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,759
there is whaling, there is gnashing of teeth and right now,

61
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,159
there's a lot of questions out there and they need

62
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,560
to be answered, and we're here to give them. Give you, guys,

63
00:03:21,599 --> 00:03:24,599

Speaker 1: Now?

69
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:37,919
Speaker 5: After the wee can thank goodness. Maybe it was a

70
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,240
losing streak that made me healthy. Maybe it was that

71
00:03:40,919 --> 00:03:42,639
just had to get all manner of sickness out of

72
00:03:42,639 --> 00:03:45,360
my body. No, Ben, I'm feeling great.

73
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 4: On this Monday.

74
00:03:46,039 --> 00:03:50,080

78
00:03:56,719 --> 00:03:58,879
journey through this and just give back the best way

79
00:03:58,919 --> 00:04:00,879

80
00:04:00,919 --> 00:04:01,719
somebody's life.

81
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,319

00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:23,680

like to synergize. I like to collaborate and listen. So yeah,

91
00:04:33,199 --> 00:04:35,639
I learned from Ronnie and I learned from Brett. Your

92
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,079
good decisions and bad decisions.

93
00:04:38,079 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 6: There's our band in the day, by the way, Stop

94
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,360
collaborate and listen. Ice is back with a brand new invention,

95
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,079
something very impressive.

96
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: You know what I mean that you know that song?

97
00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,439
That's my gen I mean I was. I was in

98
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:54,279
second grade when Vanilla Ice was hot. Again, this is

99
00:04:54,319 --> 00:04:55,040
me as a casual.

100
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,759
Speaker 6: Does he have like any other songs popular?

101
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 1: I mean he got a couple, I mean yeah, Ice

102
00:05:01,199 --> 00:05:05,600
Ice Baby, Yeah, yeah, yeah, Vanilla Ice. He he had

103
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:10,319
his one redeeming song that we still love and still

104
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,680
sight obviously, but he had a couple other songs that

105
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:18,720
were dece solid to quite solid. A solid portfolio of

106
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,959
of songs really well. I mean, look, all it takes

107
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,800
is one song to make it anyway. I just didn't

108
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,399
know if he had a deep catalog that I was

109
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,399
unfamiliar with. I mean a deep catalog. I don't know.

110
00:05:29,399 --> 00:05:31,240
If it's a deep cattleg I don't know. Yeah, not

111
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:32,759
a deep cattleog. Yeah yeah.

112
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:32,839
Speaker 7: No.

117
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,160
basketball team is as cold as ice. Yeah, that might

118
00:05:47,199 --> 00:05:50,759
be the band of the day to sacrifice, right, That's

119
00:05:50,759 --> 00:05:53,199
how we're feeling about this team. Four game losing streak.

120
00:05:55,439 --> 00:05:57,879
Which one hurts you the most? Obviously the Oklahoma State

121
00:05:58,079 --> 00:06:00,360
Oklahoma State game, but maybe it was the Houston game.

122
00:06:00,399 --> 00:06:03,000
Maybe it's because, like, hey, if you had beaten Houston,

123
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:05,680
what can I cuss on?

124
00:06:05,759 --> 00:06:05,839
Speaker 6: Here?

125
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: I guess on here? You know you know what I mean? Like,

126
00:06:11,879 --> 00:06:13,800
because even if you had lost three straight, you lost

127
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,959
to Oaklhanma said, but you beat the Houston Cougars at home.

128
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:17,720
You did what you were supposed to do at home,

129
00:06:18,519 --> 00:06:22,199
then all would have been forgiven. It would have been forgiven.

130
00:06:22,319 --> 00:06:25,120
The grace is sufficient, you know what I mean. You

131
00:06:25,199 --> 00:06:27,519
beat the Houston Cougars, who were were only a two

132
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,519
lost team, so they jumped six spots. I think, by

133
00:06:31,519 --> 00:06:34,240
the way, five spots dropped. I know, oh, Houston, did

134
00:06:34,319 --> 00:06:36,800
they just there? I believe three down? Yeah, people, n

135
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,759
BA basketball dropped six spots. Six spots correct, Yes, twenty

136
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,000
second in the nation.

137
00:06:41,319 --> 00:06:42,959
Speaker 4: I agree above those by the way, I think those

138
00:06:42,959 --> 00:06:43,560
are great, Houston.

139
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 6: Does that make you feel good to know that, like

140
00:06:46,759 --> 00:06:49,240
you were a good enough win to jump use into

141
00:06:49,319 --> 00:06:49,720
the threes?

142
00:06:49,959 --> 00:06:53,399
Speaker 1: Like? Is that in like a weird silver lining type

143
00:06:53,399 --> 00:06:56,959
of way? Is that positive? I don't know. You know,

144
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:04,519
you begin to evaluate in this basketball saga, how the

145
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:09,920
roster was constructed in the offseason, right, were they able

146
00:07:09,959 --> 00:07:15,000
to understand the you know, the the skill sets that

147
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,240
they had last year that got him to sweet sixteen

148
00:07:17,639 --> 00:07:20,160
and and say, look, this is what you know we

149
00:07:20,199 --> 00:07:22,639
did well, this is our core leadership. You know, like

150
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,360
foos what he was able to do in his isolbot

151
00:07:25,439 --> 00:07:27,759
o block lowblockscoring. Was he good in pick and roll?

152
00:07:27,839 --> 00:07:27,879
Speaker 3: No?

153
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,759
Speaker 1: Did he fumble the bag every now? And again when

154
00:07:30,759 --> 00:07:33,680
he was a mid range he had no front facing game,

155
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,319
absolutely no front facing game. But he never ebounded like

156
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,319
yeah he could rebound, he could he could put back. Uh,

157
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,240
he had a back to the basket game that was

158
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,360
one of the best NBAU basketball history. Quite honestly, pick

159
00:07:45,399 --> 00:07:48,319
and roll not good could not you know, he did

160
00:07:48,319 --> 00:07:51,079
not know what to do when he got the ball

161
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,839
in the paint and he was looking at the basket

162
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,720
for my age like he would he was he'd be

163
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:59,720
better off catching it and then immediately turning around and

164
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:05,000
like backing someone down. Heya Trevinell sharpshooter, catch and shoot right,

165
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:08,959
Dallan Hall a guy that could play with the ball

166
00:08:08,959 --> 00:08:11,399
in his hands, but also off ball like he proved that.

167
00:08:11,639 --> 00:08:15,519
I thought last year obviously Dawson he had come back.

168
00:08:15,959 --> 00:08:20,079
And but you look at the leadership. Tray Stewart, great defender,

169
00:08:20,439 --> 00:08:24,519
what mo what mag Right? A three and D guy,

170
00:08:25,199 --> 00:08:28,920
And you just don't have the supporting cast that you

171
00:08:28,959 --> 00:08:31,839
did last year. No, do you have the tenure And

172
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:33,840
I think you have plenty of talent, but you don't

173
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,120
have the tenure. You don't have that continuity, that chemistry,

174
00:08:37,159 --> 00:08:41,799
that cohesion and that's what's missing right now. It's unfortunate,

175
00:08:41,799 --> 00:08:45,720
and we don't really know who's going to step up,

176
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,799
Like we don't know who's going to be that four man,

177
00:08:48,799 --> 00:08:51,960
five man, six man's Like we're just looking for number four,

178
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:56,919
Like who can be consistently the number four man contributor?

179
00:08:57,519 --> 00:09:00,799
I I know, I put it to a most of

180
00:09:00,879 --> 00:09:04,159
us bafans have been more frustrated with the defense. I'm

181
00:09:04,159 --> 00:09:06,799
to the point like whell, yeah, I mean I'm frustrated

182
00:09:06,799 --> 00:09:10,879
with the defense, but like I just want somebody else

183
00:09:10,919 --> 00:09:13,679
to get a bucket. I want somebody else to score,

184
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,720
because if you can stay on pace, you're in that game.

185
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,399
Like I don't know how many teams out there really

186
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,080
slow down Houston. I don't know how many teams really

187
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,080
slow down U of A. I don't know how many

188
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,039
teams really slow down Kansas. Like yeah, you want to

189
00:09:27,159 --> 00:09:31,240
be a great defensive team, no doubt. But you know,

190
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,399
I kind of grew up in the Bayu basketball era

191
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,679
with Jim Or when no one was really playing defense.

192
00:09:35,759 --> 00:09:38,799
Man demand we're playing zone to conserve energy for the

193
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,279
offense side of the ball, where where we really shine.

194
00:09:41,519 --> 00:09:43,159
Or I grew up kind of in the beheim Era

195
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,960
like it was zone defense, and they played great zone defense,

196
00:09:46,279 --> 00:09:49,039
but it allowed for them to really showcase their abilities

197
00:09:49,039 --> 00:09:51,240
on the offensive end. And so we have seen implementation

198
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,600
of zone defense and it maybe hurts you a little

199
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,720
bit at times for Houston when they're hot. But and

200
00:09:56,759 --> 00:09:59,840
maybe we'll see that going forward. But I don't know.

201
00:10:00,639 --> 00:10:03,279
I'm at a loss right now for this BAU basketball

202
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:09,159
team because I'm questioning how we went about, you know,

203
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:13,120
just just composing this this this team. I know injuries

204
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,639
played a role. Nate Pickens and Dawson Baker those those

205
00:10:15,639 --> 00:10:17,320
are your two primary injuries.

206
00:10:17,919 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 6: One And what's funny is Kevin Young mentioned like he

207
00:10:21,039 --> 00:10:23,399
what we're talking about right now. He has a whole

208
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:27,960
conversation about just that in his media availability from today.

209
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,399
So I'm excited for us to get to that tomorrow

210
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,759
because it's i mean, like all the things that we

211
00:10:31,879 --> 00:10:34,720
are saying, and we're wondering if they know Kevin Young

212
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,600
literally is saying, like, dude, this is an issue. He

213
00:10:37,639 --> 00:10:39,799
even said, uh, he said, I can't remember the last

214
00:10:39,799 --> 00:10:42,000
time I had three guys who all got seasons ending injuries.

215
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,399
Because he's like even Brody's Kaslowski wo been playing right now,

216
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,399
So it's it's I mean, they know, they are fully

217
00:10:48,919 --> 00:10:50,840
aware of what is going on right now.

218
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:51,159
Speaker 4: Yeah.

219
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,279
Speaker 1: I feel for him, no doubt about it. You know,

220
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,200
guys need to step up. Mehilo needs to step up. Uh,

221
00:10:58,279 --> 00:11:01,799
Tyler Moras a Lexi Coast would be nice for those

222
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,440
guys to step up. Hadeem, you know, I just don't

223
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,200
know if he Deem's ever gonna be an offensive threat.

224
00:11:07,799 --> 00:11:09,279
I just don't see it. Do you feel like he

225
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:10,159
got more minutes?

226
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 6: I don't know if I haven't looked at the numbers,

227
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,440
but it felt like he played more in that Houston game,

228
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,960
and I felt like it was positive to have him.

229
00:11:16,759 --> 00:11:19,960
Speaker 1: On the floor more. Honestly, he just you can't match

230
00:11:20,039 --> 00:11:22,440
him up against a point guard like he's gonna kick

231
00:11:22,519 --> 00:11:25,360
some t I mean, kicks is gonna cook anything. Everybody

232
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:25,759
in Eddy.

233
00:11:25,799 --> 00:11:27,799
Speaker 4: Bro he could he was, I mean he was cooking Robin.

234
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,840
Speaker 5: To me, that was Rob's I thought best defensive performance

235
00:11:30,879 --> 00:11:32,159
been Actually just think Rob.

236
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 6: I'm glad you bring that up, Roun because I thought

237
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,279
Rob played better defense against Houston than he has this season.

238
00:11:37,039 --> 00:11:37,879
Speaker 4: Which makes me get up.

239
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 5: And again that goes another question, like brettis Posen are

240
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,559
you more upset that Robb was playing better defense against Houston?

241
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,279
So does that mean he wasn't trying on the other games?

242
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:48,519
Like was he not locked in? Like that makes you think,

243
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:48,759
you know?

244
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, we'll get into it a little bit more

245
00:11:51,879 --> 00:11:53,279

274
00:13:32,279 --> 00:13:36,639
we BYU versus the Houston Cougars. Let's let's go with

275
00:13:37,039 --> 00:13:40,879
Kevin Young first and foremost. Let's get into number one. Kevin,

276
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:45,840
to what do you attribute the missed late second changes

277
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:47,159
on the glass too?

278
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,320
Speaker 7: Not sure got to see it on the tape, but

279
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,799
one on one battles is what it looked like from

280
00:13:53,799 --> 00:13:58,039
the sideline disappointing because that's that misfreet thos. It felt like,

281
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,440
you know, we had our chances and didn't capitalize. And

282
00:14:01,919 --> 00:14:05,039
you know the disappointing part is, you know, in the

283
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,519
time out, literally right before that, you know, I said,

284
00:14:08,519 --> 00:14:10,120
hey man, look this game is gonna get one or

285
00:14:10,159 --> 00:14:12,559
loss on the glass, you know, and we just we

286
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,039
weren't able to come up with it. You know, I

287
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:16,600
gotta look at the tape some of the coach you

288
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,679
were saying, AJ was leaking out a little bit. Got

289
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,559
to get back in the fight. But you know, it's

290
00:14:21,559 --> 00:14:23,759
easy to go at the bigs in that scenario because

291
00:14:23,759 --> 00:14:25,679
the Bigs were the ones that were getting the ball.

292
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:28,759
It felt like, but then that's where I go to

293
00:14:28,799 --> 00:14:30,399
the one on one battles. Got to be better.

294
00:14:32,799 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 1: So obviously rebounding was an issue. Misfree throws were an

295
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,840
issue at the bigs. They're limited, right, they just are.

296
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,960
We have we have issues with our bigs right now.

297
00:14:44,759 --> 00:14:46,679
Foos would be nice right now, no doubt. I mean,

298
00:14:46,679 --> 00:14:48,840
we're seeing kind of the glaring weakness of our bigs.

299
00:14:49,039 --> 00:14:53,879
Keba Is is an amazing athlete and a really good

300
00:14:53,919 --> 00:14:57,600
rebounder when he's not going against you know seven footers

301
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:02,279
and with seven plus uh you know seven first foot

302
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:06,679
in in in uh in wingspan in elite length, Like

303
00:15:06,759 --> 00:15:08,919
he's more of a let's say he's more of a

304
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,720
four than he is a traditional five, right, And he's

305
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:16,240
a rim rock in rim running, just freak of an athlete.

306
00:15:16,799 --> 00:15:21,480
And he got out rebounded and and it is what

307
00:15:21,519 --> 00:15:26,480
it is. Abdullah Achmed the G League acquisition for many,

308
00:15:26,519 --> 00:15:29,399
he's been disappointing. For many. He's been you know, he

309
00:15:29,399 --> 00:15:31,879
hasn't necessarily stepped up as he should. But you know,

310
00:15:31,919 --> 00:15:33,919
realize he didn't have an offseason with this team either,

311
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,360
So like I didn't have super duper high expectations for

312
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:41,159
a late acquisition like Abdullah Achmed, even if he's coming

313
00:15:41,159 --> 00:15:43,240
from the G League. Now, if you said Eric Meek

314
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,879
is coming from the G League, yeah you know what

315
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,840
I mean. Yeah, like a hundred percent. Abdula wasn't doing

316
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,320
anything great in the G League. It's not like he

317
00:15:51,399 --> 00:15:56,399
was putting up numbers. He wasn't just putting up ridiculous statistics.

318
00:15:56,399 --> 00:15:59,840
He was a middling big man that had some ups

319
00:16:00,159 --> 00:16:02,320
and potential. You didn't see the upside of potential he

320
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,600
can handle, Like I mean, he's got good athleticism, he

321
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,399
can rebound, he can shot block, like like, there's there's

322
00:16:08,399 --> 00:16:13,879
some good core competencies within Abdullah's you know, his his

323
00:16:13,919 --> 00:16:16,919
skill set, but it was disappointing, to say the least.

324
00:16:16,919 --> 00:16:18,240
And I just don't know what the answer is. I

325
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,159
don't know if small ball is the answer. I don't

326
00:16:20,159 --> 00:16:22,879
know if it be high low with Hadeem right is

327
00:16:22,919 --> 00:16:26,080
the answer, you know, Like, I just don't know. I

328
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,240
don't know if anyone really knows what the answer is.

329
00:16:28,279 --> 00:16:31,519
Because there's a certain amount of this that is predicated

330
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:37,799
off of the individual skill set, in the individual effort

331
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:42,039
that they're showcasing in practice and in games. There's really

332
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,840
nothing that that gives you hope that by us big

333
00:16:45,879 --> 00:16:49,080
men are really going to figure it out. Unless Keba, somehow,

334
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:54,679
some way it just does something remarkable with his offensive

335
00:16:54,679 --> 00:16:57,000
scoring potential. I just don't see it. I just don't

336
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,000
know where the hope is as it pertains to your

337
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,320
bigs right now. It's a tough spot.

338
00:17:01,399 --> 00:17:04,599
Speaker 6: And the weird part about that is like that's not

339
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,680
one that's not a position on this team that was

340
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,319
torn down due to injury, Like.

341
00:17:09,279 --> 00:17:11,160
Speaker 1: The guard line. We could have that conversation.

342
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,759
Speaker 6: Sure, but it's not like you had guys that you

343
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,240
thought you would have and then you lost them, Like, yeah,

344
00:17:17,279 --> 00:17:20,119
this was kind of what you knew you were gonna

345
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,319
be playing with when you got into the season. In fact,

346
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,400
you added somebody that you didn't plan on having.

347
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,920
Speaker 1: And what would this thing look like without Beata?

348
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 6: Would they have been forced to play a different brand

349
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:30,680
of basketball?

350
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,599
Speaker 1: Maybe? I don't know, But what I do know is

351
00:17:35,039 --> 00:17:36,880
I think Boya has a much better shot at the game.

352
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,519
Speaker 6: If somebody is able to get a single rebound in

353
00:17:39,559 --> 00:17:41,319
that last five minutes, I mean, good.

354
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:43,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, you wonder if it was it more positioning and

355
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,599
you gotta go back and check tape, right the is

356
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:50,480
it positioning? Is it effort? Is it just being out athleted? Right?

357
00:17:50,519 --> 00:17:54,039
Like if verwell could be you're just out athleted. They're longer,

358
00:17:54,039 --> 00:17:57,039
they're stronger, they're they're down to get the friction, honor,

359
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:58,480
you know what I mean. They just know how to

360
00:17:58,519 --> 00:18:02,000
get up a little bit high, higher than your athletes.

361
00:18:02,079 --> 00:18:04,680
That's very well could be what it is. I hate

362
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:08,519
to to succumb to that. But at the same time,

363
00:18:08,559 --> 00:18:11,759
you're like, you know, it seemed like Houston is they

364
00:18:11,759 --> 00:18:14,000
did it last year against BYU too. They were doing

365
00:18:14,039 --> 00:18:17,279
the same thing last year, getting offensive rebounds, defensive rebounds,

366
00:18:17,559 --> 00:18:20,680
second look, second shots, That's what they did. So anyway,

367
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:22,720
let's continue down the line of question with K Why.

368
00:18:23,319 --> 00:18:25,759
How did you feel, K why about the overall discipline

369
00:18:25,759 --> 00:18:28,200
from your team and fight after a tough three game skit.

370
00:18:29,279 --> 00:18:32,759
Speaker 7: Yeah, no, it's a good point. You know, we're upset

371
00:18:32,799 --> 00:18:35,720
that we didn't win the game. You know, another great

372
00:18:35,759 --> 00:18:40,519
opportunity that we let go, which is unfortunately for us,

373
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,839
has been too many against the highest of caliber teams

374
00:18:44,839 --> 00:18:47,440
in the country. You know, we just we can't seem

375
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:51,720
to uh finish the job, and that's disappointing. However, I

376
00:18:51,799 --> 00:18:53,000
was happy with the response.

377
00:18:53,079 --> 00:18:53,839
Speaker 1: I thought I was.

378
00:18:54,799 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 7: I mean, since I've been at b YU, that was

379
00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,119
the hardest I've ever got I've gone at the team,

380
00:18:59,279 --> 00:19:00,960
you know, in terms of the things I was saying

381
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,519
to them, the film, I was showing them the practice,

382
00:19:04,279 --> 00:19:06,759
the practice and so forth. So I did think they responded,

383
00:19:07,279 --> 00:19:09,039
which for me, this was gonna be a I'm gonna

384
00:19:09,079 --> 00:19:10,480
learn a lot about our group.

385
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:10,960
Speaker 1: Type of game.

386
00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:14,880
Speaker 7: Again, Disappointed we didn't pull the win out, but I

387
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,119
thought the response out of the guys, given the stretch

388
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,400
that we're going through, you know, was admirable.

389
00:19:21,759 --> 00:19:24,119
Speaker 1: Do you feel like there was an intensity change. Did

390
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,640
you see visibly, tangibly that this team was putting forth

391
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:31,880
a better effort on the basketball court? Brett Hammer Ronald

392
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:32,599
after him.

393
00:19:32,839 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 6: Yeah, offensively, I don't really think effort fixes a whole

394
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,119
lot of things outside of.

395
00:19:40,559 --> 00:19:43,160
Speaker 1: Rebounding. I mean, you obvious see Richie flying through.

396
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:48,519
Speaker 6: The air, but so so from that standpoint, I mean,

397
00:19:48,559 --> 00:19:51,839
you just gotta make shots on the defensive stamp end, though,

398
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,240
I do feel like Hadem played better defense, which we

399
00:19:55,319 --> 00:19:57,599
knew he could play defense, I felt like maybe we

400
00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,119
just saw him play more minutes than we typically see.

401
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,480
I thought Rob played better defense than we typically see.

402
00:20:03,839 --> 00:20:07,839
So it's hard because I do feel like in this game,

403
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,240
they did try to change, and they did try to improve,

404
00:20:11,279 --> 00:20:15,720
and they did have a mentality boost. However, when you

405
00:20:15,799 --> 00:20:18,599
feel like you change and you still get the same result,

406
00:20:18,799 --> 00:20:22,759
it's hard to feel like what you did is validated.

407
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:27,480
So I hope that Kevin Young finds the right way

408
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:32,359
the right pieces to extract and still like nurture those flames.

409
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,880
While saying, hey, I realized we didn't get the outcome

410
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:38,400
that we wanted, but we did improve. And I think

411
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,519
the other part of this is like it is just

412
00:20:40,559 --> 00:20:43,559
a really sucky part of the schedule, man where you

413
00:20:43,599 --> 00:20:49,000
gotta play Arizona, Kansas, Houston all within a manner of

414
00:20:49,079 --> 00:20:53,240
like two weeks. That does suck. However, that doesn't excuse

415
00:20:53,279 --> 00:20:56,839
Oklahoma State. And maybe your argument is, well, they're just

416
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,160
so run down from all those other big games that

417
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,079
Oklahoma State's stuck up on him and it was a

418
00:21:01,079 --> 00:21:01,759
mentality thing.

419
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,079
Speaker 1: I get that. To answer your question, though, I do

420
00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:05,599
feel like.

421
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 6: Defensively, this team put in more effort than we have

422
00:21:08,839 --> 00:21:09,839
seen from them prior.

423
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 5: I did notice the intensity difference. Ben for sure, from

424
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,880
start to finish, was very impressed with them. Again, it

425
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:18,799
bodes my question of rob with the defense that I

426
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,160
said before, the nitty gritty it makes you think of

427
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,720
where's that intensity like the whole season? You know, you wonder,

428
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,240
but sometimes it takes to get kicked in the button right.

429
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:28,599
Speaker 4: A little bit maybe for it.

430
00:21:28,599 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 5: But I'm also with Brett, you're at the point where

431
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:34,640
it's too late where it's hard to feel validation because

432
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,200
of that. Now, if they would have won the game,

433
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,279
and it would have happened, but still so it's like, Okay,

434
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:40,839
so you play with better intensity, but it's still.

435
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:41,599
Speaker 4: The same results.

436
00:21:41,599 --> 00:21:44,519
Speaker 5: So nothing's changed because your intensity can change, but if

437
00:21:44,519 --> 00:21:46,880
you don't win the game, it's different. But I'm starting

438
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:48,359
to think, like, all right, well, what would have happened

439
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:50,920
if you'd have played with that intensity the whole game

440
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,559
against Arizona, maybe you would have won. Oklahoma State, you

441
00:21:53,599 --> 00:21:56,519
win that game, even if it's not by fifteen. If

442
00:21:56,559 --> 00:21:59,119
they play with that same intensity against Baylor, they can win.

443
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,440
But that's not the problem though, the problem still is

444
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:07,319
this team struggles at playing defense in the most critical moments,

445
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,279
which I'm teasing a little bit, but a certain play

446
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,200
on this team is going to talk about how they

447
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,319
didn't execute the last five minutes. This team does not

448
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:16,440
close our games strong, and if you don't do that,

449
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:17,799
you're not gonna win a lot of ball games.

450
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,039
Speaker 1: Ben, Yeah, I think there's two things I'm disappointed in

451
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:24,640
right now. You know, it's it's Canard going one of

452
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,359
seven from the three point line, Richie going for one

453
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,640
of six, and then you're Bigs not being able to

454
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,400
make layups, not being able to put you know, put

455
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,079
put backs up fifty percent of the time, like you

456
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,400
should be able to hit you know, fifty percent of

457
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:41,000
those those semi contested putbacks right when Cape is one

458
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:46,559
of six and you know, I guess at Doula it

459
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:50,920
was two or four. A deem was over two. They

460
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,200
just get wild down there. They get wild and and

461
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:57,160
there it's almost like they're too twitchy, they're too too scared,

462
00:22:57,279 --> 00:23:00,200
and and and it's just it's it's frenetic. There's a

463
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:04,359
certain amount of freyneticism. It's not a smooth it's not

464
00:23:04,839 --> 00:23:07,559
these aren't smooth movements. Uh and and look they can

465
00:23:07,559 --> 00:23:10,240
get it can get pretty raucous in the middle. It

466
00:23:10,279 --> 00:23:13,000
can get pretty physical down there, there's no doubt. But

467
00:23:13,519 --> 00:23:15,359
uh we we we had issues. Those are the two

468
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:17,000
things that I looked at. I'm like, man, you know,

469
00:23:17,599 --> 00:23:20,519
if you're gonna have complaints about something, those are those

470
00:23:20,519 --> 00:23:22,720
are a couple of things you're gonna complain about. Those

471
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,359
are the guys. I mean, I'm losing patience with Kennard.

472
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,359
I'll be honest if I he he was good defensively.

473
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,160
I saw a great effort from him defensively. He had

474
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,440
six rebounds, two steals, and so I thought he did

475
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:40,400
a good job there. I I hate his mechanics. I

476
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:45,440
abhort his Sewan Marion, but Seawn Marion shot but not

477
00:23:45,519 --> 00:23:48,920
Sean mary efficiency from the three point line. It's just

478
00:23:49,039 --> 00:23:52,319
it's just it's take a take a half second more,

479
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,799
you're freaking wide open and just hit the shot. You know,

480
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,079
that'd be nice. He says, like a lights are too

481
00:23:58,079 --> 00:23:59,400
bright kind of thing. Is that what it is?

482
00:23:59,440 --> 00:23:59,519
Speaker 7: Like?

483
00:23:59,559 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 1: I think I just think he you know, I think

484
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:03,880
he's had to speed up his mechanics. I think all

485
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:10,000
players that move up a level, especially to the big twelve,

486
00:24:10,599 --> 00:24:12,319
I just think they speed up their mechanics get their

487
00:24:12,319 --> 00:24:15,680
shot off, especially when you have a low shot release.

488
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:17,440
It's not like he has a high shot release. He's

489
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,960
coming from the forehead. Does that make sense? Yeah, so

490
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,599
when you have a he's six six six', five but

491
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:27,599
he's coming from the. Forehead so, Anyway, uh you, know

492
00:24:28,319 --> 00:24:30,880
there's not the right answer. Here i'm talking about my Boy.

493
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,119
Keith or's, like we just don't have. Debt this is

494
00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:34,880
what he's. Saying it's as simple as. That AND i

495
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:39,920
wonder what the roster, composition uh if it is if

496
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,200
they're so focused on these extremely high level guys like you,

497
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,759
know everyone's everyone's asking the question right, now how much

498
00:24:46,839 --> 00:24:48,960
have we pay for this? Roster and was it really worth?

499
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:53,519
It you know WHAT i? Mean like you better be

00:25:00,519 --> 00:25:02,640
Nate pickens could have been really. Good it's hard to

503
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:06,599
account for. Injuries and you, know maybe you Thought Alexa

Degree so, like, YEAH i hear, that but like, no

513
00:25:27,559 --> 00:25:32,240

517
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:39,119

521
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,319
Speaker 1: Right so that's a dolement, issue that's a coaching staff.

522
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,880
Issue hundred the. Team we didn't really get to see,

523
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:51,599
him so we don't know how good he was last.

524
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,880
Year today we're assuming that he probably.

525
00:25:53,559 --> 00:25:55,799
Speaker 4: Got better because because he didn't play last.

526
00:25:55,839 --> 00:25:57,839
Speaker 5: Year because of, THAT i, mean he's knocking down three

527
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:00,559
so we're seeing that Of like, okay so like to

528
00:26:00,599 --> 00:26:01,759
me this, Game BEN i thought was on.

529
00:26:01,759 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 1: That, Hi bobskovic another big. Guy, Okay so like those

530
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:12,119
are a couple of. Examples it's, like, okay like where

531
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,880
where's the development? Piece and why aren't they? Improving why

532
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,000
aren't they getting better within their skills? Set why aren't

533
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,559
they becoming more? Refined is that on the? Player is

534
00:26:20,599 --> 00:26:22,599
that on the? Coach and we go round and round

535
00:26:22,759 --> 00:26:25,720
chicken or the? Egg and eventually someone's got to stand

536
00:26:25,799 --> 00:26:28,839
up and raise their hand and, Say i'm taking. Accountability

537
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:32,000
i'm taking accountability for, this AND i don't know if

538
00:26:32,039 --> 00:26:36,559
we have that, yet And cougar fans will eventually want

539
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:40,920
to hear who's taking? ACCOUNTABILITY i does that makes? Sense it?

540
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,799
Does who's accountable? Here?

541
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 4: Right that's just, Tough LIKE i don't know how you Miss?

542
00:26:47,319 --> 00:26:47,920
Ben like you saw.

543
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:49,759
Speaker 5: It he gets the, Rebound i'm, like all, right go

544
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:51,680
up and dunk, it and then he just goes right

545
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:52,200
over the rim and the.

546
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 4: Airballs Like i'm just, like what what? Is what is? That?

547
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:55,400
Speaker 1: Ben?

548
00:26:55,519 --> 00:26:57,599
Speaker 5: Like And i'm teasing What kevin's gonna get to and

549
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,640
what he's gonna he's gonna make a comment on. It

550
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:02,759
but like been, that and THEN i think down the

551
00:27:02,799 --> 00:27:05,079
stretch of When hadeem, fouled like he's got to be.

552
00:27:05,079 --> 00:27:07,400
Better you can't jump over the guy when they're in

553
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:08,759
the one and one and put him at the free throw.

554
00:27:08,799 --> 00:27:11,640
Line you have to understand IF i, foul they go

555
00:27:11,759 --> 00:27:13,960
to the free throw. Line he did that twice and

556
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,640
then Again hadeem And kiba not bad not grabbing, rebounds

557
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,759
Giving houston second chance offensive, Rebounds LIKE i, mean what

558
00:27:21,799 --> 00:27:24,200
else do you want from a jam From?

559
00:27:24,279 --> 00:27:24,720

563
00:27:31,799 --> 00:27:34,480
Second BUT i was disappointed in WHAT i saw From.

564
00:27:34,559 --> 00:27:38,599
Kieba Obviously knar can't shoot two of, nine but disappointing

565
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:39,240
WHAT i saw From.

566
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,440
Speaker 4: Kaba hadeem and beat you they. Got they gotta play

567
00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:41,880
better As.

568
00:27:41,759 --> 00:27:46,039
Speaker 1: Biggs, well the, catching the the pick and pop, situations

569
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,759
that's All knark like he. Gets he gets so many

570
00:27:49,839 --> 00:27:53,319
freaking looks and pick and pop and he hits very.

571
00:27:53,319 --> 00:27:57,119
Few come, on and not only, that like you, know

572
00:27:57,319 --> 00:27:59,640
LIKE i, know he had a big game, recently so

573
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,759
we would give credit to, that but there has to

574
00:28:01,759 --> 00:28:04,119
be some form of. Concisuent he's below thirty percent now

575
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:07,359
from Three when you get as many pick and pop

576
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,799
situations as he does that are, UNCONTESTED i, Mean i'm

577
00:28:10,799 --> 00:28:14,240
beginning to, Like i'm asking a QUESTION i asked everyone in.

578
00:28:14,279 --> 00:28:16,160
There i'm, like you, KNOW i was watching the games with.

579
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:18,359
Me i'm, like IF i gave you three weeks and

580
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:23,519
all you did was picking pop, threes set shots semi to,

581
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,640
uncontested how many of those can you? Hit can you

582
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:32,119
hit thirty? Percent maybe possibly that he's got to be better,

583
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:35,759
There he's got to be. Better, okay let's get back

584
00:28:35,759 --> 00:28:37,319
to number. Three let's get through a couple more of

585
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,880
these sound. Bites, kay why we've asked you in the

586
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,680
past about free throw. Struggles can you do? It and

587
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:44,640
by the, way last year we had free throw struggles, too,

588
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,720
true we had free throw. Struggles they got it dialed

589
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:50,559
in For march, though taking some extra time to put

590
00:28:50,559 --> 00:28:53,039
in the. Reps can you do anything outside of guys

591
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,200
just making them, no.

592
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 4: That's, It, Nope, nope that's.

593
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,279
Speaker 1: It young might be the most honest coach In.

594
00:29:06,319 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 6: AMERICA i truly believe that he's not afraid of what

595
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:10,119
anyone is gonna.

596
00:29:10,119 --> 00:29:13,279
Speaker 1: Say He's the answer, IS i don't you? Know this

597
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:18,920
is it's an interesting it's an interesting. Commentary Frankfurt scilla

598
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:23,160
during the game was like he he made a commentary

599
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,000
the staining like K y got after his team this.

600
00:29:26,119 --> 00:29:30,799
Week you typically don't yell at, pros and he's treating

601
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:35,319
this team as he treats. Pros it's there's pros and

602
00:29:35,359 --> 00:29:39,319
cons to every way of. Coaching you can Be izzo

603
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:44,559
who's like all over his squad all day every. Day

604
00:29:44,559 --> 00:29:47,000
he loves him up and he's just holding him accountable

605
00:29:47,119 --> 00:29:50,359
every single. Turn. Right that's not the pro way, Though

606
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,480
and SO i understand What ky why is doing you

607
00:29:53,559 --> 00:29:55,599
gotta Be you gotta align with your brand who you.

608
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:57,799
Are this is how you coach and things that nature.

609
00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:05,559
Right but you wonder does that affect the after practice

610
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:10,279
repetition and putting in the lonely work like putting up

611
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,799
one hundred freaking free throws at the end of, practice

612
00:30:14,079 --> 00:30:16,359
and how many of those guys are doing? It and

613
00:30:16,599 --> 00:30:19,200
is there a call to action for? That maybe there.

614
00:30:19,279 --> 00:30:21,359
Is we don't. Know we're not there at The Merritt center.

615
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:25,720
Annex we don't. Know i'll give you an example on, Football,

616
00:30:25,799 --> 00:30:29,920
like you, know how do you create a scenario that's

617
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,599
high pressure for your. Kicker, well you turn on the,

618
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:36,000
sound you have the entire team around your hooting and.

619
00:30:36,079 --> 00:30:38,960
Hollering you create a competitive, situation and you have the

620
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,079
media there. Too that's a great thing to do if

621
00:30:41,119 --> 00:30:44,400
the media is there to, say, oh you, know the

622
00:30:44,759 --> 00:30:48,480
kicker missed three field goals during the TEAMS i remember, That,

623
00:30:48,599 --> 00:30:51,440
ronnie when we're watching. That oh, yeah you want to

624
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:54,799
create high. Pressure you do, it like you know WHAT i, Mean,

625
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:58,920
like that's what you. Do you have to create these

626
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,759
scenario of high pressure because when they get in the,

627
00:31:02,799 --> 00:31:06,480
games you want them desensitized. Completely you want to be.

628
00:31:06,599 --> 00:31:10,079
Deadened you want to be deadened by all of the,

629
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:15,039
distractions to the point of you have an art of

630
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:18,680
not giving a, care not Giving uh you, know there's

631
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,039
a book you can read, It The art of not

632
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,759
giving a formication under The consent of The, king and

633
00:31:24,759 --> 00:31:28,599
and so like the because, look we're. Bad we're not.

634
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,480
Good we're not a good free throw shooting. Team and

635
00:31:31,519 --> 00:31:36,319
it can, change it can. Change but we got to

636
00:31:36,359 --> 00:31:39,039
figure that out, too and and so it was just

637
00:31:39,079 --> 00:31:41,079
a kind of a thought THAT i. Had i'm, like

638
00:31:41,119 --> 00:31:44,480
look like we got to figure out. Something we've got

639
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,240
to do something, different, Right, Kevin, Kevin kevin And beadho

640
00:31:47,319 --> 00:31:50,480
missed quite a few shots at the. Rim, uh we

641
00:31:50,519 --> 00:31:53,599
are we aren't necessarily used to SEEING i guess we're

642
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,000
used to seeing them make. Those is that basically just

643
00:31:56,039 --> 00:31:57,640
hurrying too fast Because houston is a good.

644
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,559
Speaker 7: TEAM i don't, know you're being nice to those guys

645
00:32:01,519 --> 00:32:04,640
will make a. SHOT i don't know what else to.

646
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:06,319
SAY i, mean the three of the two of them

647
00:32:06,319 --> 00:32:08,799
were three of ten, combined and.

648
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: Then three of eight from the free throw.

649
00:32:10,079 --> 00:32:12,799
Speaker 7: Line so those are basically seven miss layups and five

650
00:32:12,839 --> 00:32:15,119
miss free throws between your two back and your two

651
00:32:15,119 --> 00:32:15,920
centers not good.

652
00:32:16,039 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 1: Enough that's the accountable that you want to. HEAR i

653
00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,079
will say this. Much i'll give the kids in a

654
00:32:22,119 --> 00:32:24,640
little bit of. Raise we've all been in that situation

655
00:32:25,519 --> 00:32:28,480
where you're hurrying up your mechanics after a rebound put.

656
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,720
Back you don't have to be A division one athlete

657
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,200
to feel that pressure and he kind of you try

658
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:34,720
to body them up and kind of, like you, know

659
00:32:34,839 --> 00:32:37,319
kind of get it up before the hand comes to

660
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,480
swats it out of the, way like it felt Like

661
00:32:41,079 --> 00:32:44,880
Keba hadiem and even and beat. You they all kind

662
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,319
of felt, it you. Know and if they, didn't if

663
00:32:47,319 --> 00:32:51,400
they were too casual like Akamaner doula was Or Abdul lachman.

664
00:32:51,599 --> 00:32:55,640
Was he, got he, got tugler, bler he got and

665
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:58,839
how to. Tuggy that's.

666
00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,400
Speaker 5: FUNNY i like. That and that's. Funny, ben that's a

667
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,000
really GOOD i need to cut that up for. Later But,

668
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,640
ben that one's sad Because aj made a dime pass

669
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,119
out of the double and it was quick and then

670
00:33:09,119 --> 00:33:10,200
you gets stuffed And i'm, like.

671
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 4: Dude what do you?

672
00:33:11,519 --> 00:33:13,720
Speaker 5: Do like you going up too? Slow and then he

673
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:15,559
obviously made the adjustment because of what you do on next.

674
00:33:15,559 --> 00:33:18,759
One he stuffed it down. Immediately But i'm so disappointed In,

675
00:33:18,839 --> 00:33:21,720
kVA like you're not dunking the ball like you You

676
00:33:21,759 --> 00:33:24,240
it's So AND i know some people have put out

677
00:33:24,279 --> 00:33:26,839
tweets of, oh you, know it's not the lob of

678
00:33:26,839 --> 00:33:28,319
picking roll that got nothing to do with making a.

679
00:33:28,359 --> 00:33:30,519
Layup you on't need lobs to make a. Layup you

680
00:33:30,519 --> 00:33:32,720
only need lobs to dunk a, basketball like that's your.

681
00:33:32,799 --> 00:33:35,400
Job like so it's, LOOK i Know bdo is not

682
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:37,880
gonna be the offensive feat like you, mentioned but it

683
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:41,480
was disappointing to See Caba dowey he do and Hadem and,

684
00:33:41,559 --> 00:33:43,799
LOOK i know people are gonna say, depth that is your.

685
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:45,519
Speaker 4: Depth you brought In hadeem for to be the.

686
00:33:45,559 --> 00:33:47,759
Speaker 5: Four you brought him in last year to Developed cable

687
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,880
was coming back And exavion hasn't been what you, Thought

688
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,119
like that is who you. Have so to, me it's Not,

689
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:54,920
debu you just those guys have to play better at

690
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:56,559
the end of the. Day i'm sorry they. Do And

691
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:58,960
kanark can't go to a nine like right. Now AND

692
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,119
I brett would agree with this and maybe get into

693
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:02,880
this on the flip, side BUT i think a lineup

694
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:04,680
change is, Coming, ben AND i think you're gonna see

695
00:34:04,839 --> 00:34:06,799
a deem play because we saw in the game his

696
00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:10,079
ability to guard one through five and he was, phenomenal

697
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,000
like defensively until he calls you, know a few foulsd

698
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,000
to put him at the. LINE i loved WHAT i

699
00:34:15,039 --> 00:34:17,480
saw and when it Took canard off the, floor AND

700
00:34:17,519 --> 00:34:18,320
i think that might be a.

701
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:19,320
Speaker 4: Secret maybe.

702
00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,719
Speaker 1: These are basic things That i'm, Like i'm, Wondering like,

703
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:29,000
if for, instance In abdullah's, Situation i've always been taught

704
00:34:29,079 --> 00:34:34,559
use the rim to to impact. Defenders you know WHAT i,

705
00:34:34,599 --> 00:34:37,159
mean use the rim to impact. Defenders so in that, case,

706
00:34:37,199 --> 00:34:38,960
right they're going straight. Up if you've got a great

707
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:44,840
shot blocking team that's, lanky, athletic good, jumpers you better

708
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,840
be cognizant of your. Putbacks you have to use the

709
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:51,960
rim to your. Advantage that means coming up with the,

710
00:34:52,039 --> 00:34:53,519
left you, know acting like you come up with the,

711
00:34:53,559 --> 00:34:55,320
right but come up with a lefe kiss it off

712
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,679
the glass with a head and put it In and guess,

713
00:34:57,679 --> 00:35:00,639
What tug's going to go to the center bo of.

714
00:35:00,679 --> 00:35:02,679
You he's coming up to. You he's gonna come. Right

715
00:35:03,119 --> 00:35:05,639
it's THAT i hate to say it's that. Easy everyone's,

716
00:35:05,639 --> 00:35:08,519
like you're a you're a football. Player i'm, like, THERE i,

717
00:35:08,559 --> 00:35:10,840
LOOK i get. It but, like these are things THAT

718
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:16,360
i was taught playing high school basketball from some good.

719
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,760
COACHES i, thought, anyway we got some. Issues we're trying

720
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,440
to solve them. Here, uh and they got to get coached.

721
00:35:22,519 --> 00:35:25,440
Up there was a POINT aj made a couple of

722
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,880
free throws and then you took him. Out this was

723
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:32,320
another controversial, thing, Right why did why DID aj come?

724
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:35,159
Out why was he taken out when you had about

725
00:35:35,199 --> 00:35:38,840
one minute remaining before any whistle there's an under four

726
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,519
minute you, know any whistle goes to. IT i think

727
00:35:41,519 --> 00:35:43,639
A tv time, OUT i believe If i'm not mistake.

728
00:35:44,519 --> 00:35:47,159
Right so it's, like, wait we got one more minute? Left,

729
00:35:47,159 --> 00:35:50,199
like let him stay out? There why why Pull? Aj? There?

730
00:35:50,199 --> 00:35:56,960
Okay why he's about to pass? Out? Yeah so in

731
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:00,760
the post, GAME i let let's, uh let LET'S i

732
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:05,760
don't know what number this. IS aj was, asked was

733
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,840

736
00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:18,480
take you out after you made the free. Throws it

737
00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:22,239
because you were about to pass? Out was it that? Dire?

738
00:36:26,039 --> 00:36:30,599
NAH i was, good THOUGHT i needed.

739
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:32,599

775
00:38:19,639 --> 00:38:24,519
it erases the three. LOSSES i, agree it erases the three.

776
00:38:24,519 --> 00:38:26,960
Losses it doesn't. Matter Oklahoma state doesn't matter. Anymore you

777
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:28,400
were lost on the, road that was a quad one.

778
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:32,039
Loss you Beat, houston who's now the number three. Team

779
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,000
you gotta find a way to do it at that.

780
00:38:34,079 --> 00:38:39,679
Moment for seating, issues for seeding. Ventures, okay let's get

781
00:38:39,679 --> 00:38:43,280
back to it we're going number, eight you, said, yeah

782
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:46,400
just you will add up about the. Fatigueness, okay a

783
00:38:46,519 --> 00:38:50,840
j how fatigued was he in the? Game he still

784
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:52,679
went for twenty eight points on fourteen.

785
00:38:52,679 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 7: Shots, yeah And, JAY i wasn't trying to be snappy

786
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,920
at your question like he you, KNOW i think some

787
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,320
of that rebounding was on his, part, Right and SO

788
00:39:01,679 --> 00:39:03,519
i knew the media was getting ready to, come and

789
00:39:03,559 --> 00:39:05,960
so you thought you could steal like another extra minute

790
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:09,519
less than, that to be honest with, you BECAUSE i

791
00:39:09,519 --> 00:39:11,280
was playing a call of time out and then just

792
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,360
instead of him getting the full media getting an extra thirty.

793
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:18,119
Seconds so that that's what went in that. Decision but

794
00:39:18,199 --> 00:39:20,280
as far AS i, mean he was great, tonight you

795
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:22,719
know it was when he's rolling like, that you don't

796
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:24,599
you want to take him off the. Floor but you,

797
00:39:24,599 --> 00:39:26,719
KNOW i am going to challenge him a little bit

798
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,960

799
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:32,079

Fatigued he was tired having to run. EVERYWHERE a great

910
00:45:06,599 --> 00:45:09,360
job By Kelvin sampson and This Houston cougar basketball. Team

911
00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:11,679
last thing from K Why, kevin when you're in a

912
00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:14,000
situation with a team where you're having a hard time

913
00:45:14,039 --> 00:45:16,599
getting a, win what's the bounce between changing things up

914
00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:19,239
to try to get them out of, it out of the,

915
00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:22,199
funk and sticking to what you've done thus.

916
00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:25,639
Speaker 7: Far, Yeah, no IT'S i think when you when you

917
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,519
lose in a fashion that's. UGLY i think it's easy

918
00:45:28,599 --> 00:45:30,599
to make changes when you're losing in a fashion and

919
00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:32,960
like you feel like you're right, there it's a little bit.

920
00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:36,280
Harder but that being, SAID i mean everything's on the

921
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:40,920
table as far as us examining, things and, uh you,

922
00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:45,559
know it's just it's a situation that we're, where you,

923
00:45:45,599 --> 00:45:47,480
know because of the sum of the injuries that we've,

924
00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:50,800
had with the season ending, injuries you, know you we're

925
00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:53,760
searching a little bit obviously off the, bench and so you,

926
00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:55,840
know you can make an argument to maybe then put

927
00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:57,599
one of the starters on the bench and put a

928
00:45:57,639 --> 00:45:59,519
bench guy in so that you do have something a

929
00:45:59,519 --> 00:46:02,679
little bit, more we're potentially coming off the, bench so

930
00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:06,360
everything's being. Examined but but again it's a great. Question

931
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:10,039
and LIKE i, said if you're losing in a way

932
00:46:10,039 --> 00:46:11,599
where you're, like oh, man you don't even feel like

933
00:46:11,639 --> 00:46:12,840
you have a, shot it's easy to make.

934
00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:16,599
Speaker 1: Changes but you, KNOW i sound like a.

935
00:46:16,559 --> 00:46:20,599
Speaker 7: Broken, record BUT i, mean, okay so like What, Arizona, Yukon,

936
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:24,000
Houston Texas. Tech you're right there to win all those

937
00:46:24,039 --> 00:46:26,239
games doing doing it the way we've been doing, it

938
00:46:26,519 --> 00:46:28,639
but it's not good enough because we're not. Winning and so,

939
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,519
uh those those decisions keep me up at night for.

940
00:46:31,559 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 1: Sure, guys anything there that you guys want to chime in. On,

941
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:40,239
look this is this is obviously Keeping ky up at.

942
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:42,639
Night he went THROUGH i remember last week it WAS

943
00:46:42,679 --> 00:46:45,159
i went through every single defensive. Set we talked about.

944
00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:48,960
INTENSITY i showed every he was accountable with. Them, Right

945
00:46:49,119 --> 00:46:52,199
so he's going through every single defensive sets, saying, hey

946
00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:54,320
this is what you. Know he may be attacking a

947
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:56,920
j he may be Attacking Rob. Right we saw an

948
00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:59,639
increase in effort From Rob. Right the Third Connard Davis

949
00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:02,880
junior really stepped up. DEFENSIVELY i thought and looked better

950
00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:06,119
and his, Intensity like there's guys that are being called.

951
00:47:06,199 --> 00:47:09,559
OUT i think is it too little too? Late? Though

952
00:47:09,559 --> 00:47:14,559
should that that, pressing that that fire? Lit should that

953
00:47:14,559 --> 00:47:18,760
have been lit a little bit sooner than this last?

954
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:20,199
Week is the, Question, ronnie your.

955
00:47:20,199 --> 00:47:22,920
Speaker 5: Thoughts, Yeah i'm thinking about this right And i'm trying

956
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:24,519
to be accountable of what's the best, way in the

957
00:47:24,559 --> 00:47:27,400
right way to go about. THIS i think there's a

958
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:30,400
little bit of, obviously you, know everybody's ego plays a.

959
00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:33,199
Factor kevin's fighting against, himself you, KNOW i think with

960
00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:36,199
this because he's seeing the stuff on table they're attacking

961
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:38,199
rob where they're attacking, this and then it's, like, Well,

962
00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:40,480
kevin just look at the film and then look at the.

963
00:47:40,519 --> 00:47:43,440
Tape you see that a guy's missing. Shots you saw

964
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:46,079
on tape that a guy you brought in is playing

965
00:47:46,079 --> 00:47:48,320
phenomenal minutes being able to go one through five like

966
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:51,400
you need a lineup change you, do maybe couldn't and

967
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:53,719
it doesn't, hurt, Right, okay you bring a demon and,

968
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:56,639
okay you know you Put canardo on the bench and

969
00:47:56,639 --> 00:47:59,119
you Bring conard. Off what if it, works like you

970
00:47:59,239 --> 00:48:01,440
not taking the checks and doing nothing is gonna hurt

971
00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:03,679
you our thing longer than just keeping things the.

972
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:05,440
Speaker 4: Same and that's what he's, Fighting LIKE i hear it

973
00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:05,679
in his.

974
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:08,599
Speaker 5: Voice he wants to keep it the same because he's,

975
00:48:08,639 --> 00:48:10,760
like well on, tape it's not working and they're doing

976
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:12,519
the same. Thing but at the same, time it's, like

977
00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:16,119
you gotta try something, Different Like Kevin, young is the

978
00:48:16,159 --> 00:48:17,400
definition of insanity right?

979
00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:19,159
Speaker 4: Now you're doing the same.

980
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:22,679
Speaker 5: Thing fifty five different, Ways, Ben but is the outcome?

981
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,440
DIFFERENT i don't think, So like it's. Not AND i

982
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:27,840
think he needs to challenge himself and, say you know,

983
00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:30,639
What i'm gonna put a guy on the bench And

984
00:48:30,679 --> 00:48:32,920
i'm gonna bring it. Differently but you know WHAT i

985
00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:34,320
think it. Is and, look and this is not a

986
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:36,480
conversation we need to. START i think he might be

987
00:48:36,519 --> 00:48:38,079
worried that if he does, that a canar or what

988
00:48:38,119 --> 00:48:40,800
does that do to him mentally because his team menstality

989
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:43,039
and mentally is already struggling a little, bit and that

990
00:48:43,119 --> 00:48:44,079
might just deplinish a.

991
00:48:44,119 --> 00:48:47,199
Speaker 1: Player how can it get worse, THOUGH i mean the,

992
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:48,119
kid you.

993
00:48:48,079 --> 00:48:48,599
Speaker 4: Can always get.

994
00:48:48,599 --> 00:48:52,840
Speaker 5: Worse look how instead of One look How cannon checked

995
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:54,760
out and they did with the lack of this team's.

996
00:48:54,800 --> 00:48:56,880
Depth With, cannon you could just leave him on the

997
00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,320
bench and they had the, guys If kanar does What cannon.

998
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,199
Does And i'm being on And i'm presenting if this

999
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:03,320
were to, Happen i'm not saying that this is who canarready.

1000
00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:05,480
IS i don't, know but if it were to turn

1001
00:49:05,519 --> 00:49:10,159
into bad body language or attitude or, entitlement now you

1002
00:49:10,159 --> 00:49:13,199
don't have a. Choice you're stuck because you need that.

1003
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:15,480
Body SO i don't know if it's to keep it,

1004
00:49:15,599 --> 00:49:17,840
happy if he really believes. That But, ben something's not,

1005
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:20,119
Right AND i love your, thoughts but that's just SOMETHING i.

1006
00:49:20,159 --> 00:49:22,320
NOTICED i feel, like why you continue to go in

1007
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:23,400
the definition of, okay you're?

1008
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:23,519
Speaker 8: Right?

1009
00:49:23,599 --> 00:49:24,920
Speaker 4: Kay why you? All you're?

1010
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:27,239
Speaker 5: There you're, there but you lost all those, games so

1011
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:29,440
obviously it's not even with you looking at the.

1012
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:33,760
Speaker 1: Tape i'm a big body language. Guy you, guys you

1013
00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:37,119
guys heard me talk about, it you, know so DO

1014
00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:40,440
i always Like Cannar Davis junior's body WHICH i thought

1015
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:42,320
it was much improved this last. GAME i really did.

1016
00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:47,400
AGREE i saw a stark difference in body, language especially

1017
00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:49,920
on the defensive, end and good effort on the. Offense

1018
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,119
veen he just didn't hit, shots and he's just not

1019
00:49:52,159 --> 00:49:55,159
a very good, shooter just at least not this. Year he's.

1020
00:49:55,199 --> 00:49:58,679
Not so let's call. It let's let's wrap this up

1021
00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,000
with a few other sound bites FROM aj And rob

1022
00:50:01,119 --> 00:50:04,679
shall We, uh let's get into number. ONE, aj what

1023
00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:07,719
was the scattery report going going in Against? Houston how

1024
00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:09,599
do you feel like you guys executed? It?

1025
00:50:10,679 --> 00:50:13,239
Speaker 8: Yeah me, PERSONALLY i kind of knew they were going

1026
00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:14,800
to like blitz the bottle. Line that's kind of what

1027
00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,639
they're known, for being. Aggressive but the main thing was

1028
00:50:17,639 --> 00:50:20,239
just numb being on the glass, more it's kind of

1029
00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:22,480
the identity that kind of crashed the. Glass as good as,

1030
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:24,599
anybody not better than. Everybody so we just tried to

1031
00:50:24,599 --> 00:50:27,199
master physicality of the. Glass, well obviously we came up.

1032
00:50:27,079 --> 00:50:27,559
Speaker 4: Short.

1033
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:32,400
Speaker 1: Came up, short and it was. Unfortunate what do you

1034
00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:39,079
Attribute houston getting second chance? Scoring uh consistently at the

1035
00:50:39,119 --> 00:50:41,239
end of the game. TOO i, mean it's what we

1036
00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:42,440
just got. BLOCKOUT i just gotta do.

1037
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:46,320
Speaker 8: It there's no excuse for it's just more of an, efforting.

1038
00:50:48,079 --> 00:50:51,079
Speaker 1: Just effort. Thing he. Said there's an effort, execution, right

1039
00:50:52,079 --> 00:50:56,000
and sometimes it's a. Technique sometimes it is just basically

1040
00:50:56,039 --> 00:50:58,800
effort does did be what you put for the right?

1041
00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:03,559
Effort those uh on those. Rebels, look when you're long

1042
00:51:03,639 --> 00:51:06,960
rebounds happen when when teams are shooting. Threes it's really

1043
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:11,280
hard to close out and box out in those, situations

1044
00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:16,519
especially versus elite length and. Athleticism SO i do think

1045
00:51:16,559 --> 00:51:19,239
there's an element here of like they it feels like

1046
00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:22,000
they just got to out athleted the.

1047
00:51:22,119 --> 00:51:25,639
Speaker 6: Other the other hard part here is like SO i

1048
00:51:25,679 --> 00:51:27,239
was telling you guys during the, break boy has now

1049
00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:29,400
played three of the top six teams in the eight

1050
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:37,639
people Between, Yukon arizona And, houston we're unfortunately sitting in

1051
00:51:37,679 --> 00:51:41,440
a spot like, like let's say you spread all these losses.

1052
00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:44,039
Out obviously you come one is spread, out but let's

1053
00:51:44,119 --> 00:51:47,199
just let's just say that you take this game and

1054
00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:50,039
then you Add texa Teching, kansas and those are spread

1055
00:51:50,039 --> 00:51:52,519
out across the season as opposed to all bunched, together

1056
00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:55,559
and they're winning all the games in. Between you would,

1057
00:51:55,559 --> 00:51:59,159
say dang, man they're right there with all of these.

1058
00:51:59,159 --> 00:52:03,239
Teams but because they compound and because they were scheduled

1059
00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:04,960
in such a way where it's back to back to

1060
00:52:05,039 --> 00:52:08,239
back to back and unfortunately doesn't get any. Easier it's

1061
00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:12,320
a tough spot to be in because it compounds, mentally

1062
00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:17,039
it compounds for the fans and LIKE i, DON'T i,

1063
00:52:17,039 --> 00:52:19,000
DON'T i truly do at this point don't know how

1064
00:52:19,039 --> 00:52:21,280
to look at it Because i'm a big believer in,

1065
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:24,119
patterns like if you do something, one, two three, times

1066
00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:27,239
they're Not they're no longer isolated. Incidents those are a,

1067
00:52:27,360 --> 00:52:30,000
choice like that's who you. Are AND i JUST i

1068
00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:32,760
sit here AND i, say is this WHO buyu? Is

1069
00:52:33,159 --> 00:52:34,800
where they just can't beat the big?

1070
00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:36,000
Speaker 1: Team or.

1071
00:52:37,519 --> 00:52:39,760
Speaker 6: Is it just because these games were all back to

1072
00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:41,079
back to back to back to back.

1073
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:42,800
Speaker 1: AND i AND i truly don't know the.

1074
00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:46,320
Speaker 6: Answer like the team who Played yukon and almost won that,

1075
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:52,480
game if that team Plays, Arizona Texas, Tech kansas And, houston.

1076
00:52:52,639 --> 00:52:55,519
Speaker 1: Do we win two of those? GAMES I i, TRULY

1077
00:52:56,280 --> 00:52:57,719
i truly don't.

1078
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,519
Speaker 6: Know But i'll tell you, This if you Don't baylor

1079
00:53:00,519 --> 00:53:03,639
And colorado this, week then it's not all these games

1080
00:53:03,679 --> 00:53:04,159
just happened to be.

1081
00:53:04,199 --> 00:53:07,000
Speaker 1: Scheduled that this is who we, are this is who we.

1082
00:53:07,159 --> 00:53:10,239
Is Rob were you guys happy with the effort Against

1083
00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:13,679
houston compared to other games like Against Oklahoma.

1084
00:53:13,679 --> 00:53:17,199
Speaker 3: State, yeah we definitely came in wanted to make a,

1085
00:53:17,239 --> 00:53:19,800
statement wanting to show that we could play hard for two.

1086
00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:21,360
Halves SO i feel like we did a good job

1087
00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:22,039
of changing.

1088
00:53:22,039 --> 00:53:24,280
Speaker 1: That, YEAH i think. SO i THINK i think they

1089
00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:26,360
were playing, Hard LIKE i don't think the. EFFORT i,

1090
00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:30,039
MEAN i KNOW aj put up you know that commentary of, like,

1091
00:53:30,119 --> 00:53:33,039
hey effort is is the reason why our lack of,

1092
00:53:33,039 --> 00:53:36,199
effort why we couldn't rebound and we allowed second chance

1093
00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:39,119
points For. HOUSTON i think the effort was. THERE i

1094
00:53:39,159 --> 00:53:42,880
didn't see you know this, lackadaisical like, effortless you know,

1095
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:46,119
this this just throwing in the. TOWEL i didn't see. That.

1096
00:53:46,239 --> 00:53:48,760
Rob what what do you think it's gonna take to

1097
00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:50,719
get over the? Hump you guys have been so.

1098
00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:54,719
Speaker 3: CLOSE i think it was like when it got under five.

1099
00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:56,599
MINUTES i think it's just finishing the game at, strong

1100
00:53:56,679 --> 00:53:58,920
just closing it. Out we kind of had a couple of,

1101
00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,880
turnovers a couple of, mishaps and they got second chance.

1102
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:03,400
Points so THAT i heard us at the.

1103
00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:06,039
Speaker 1: End definitely hurts you at the, end got to close out.

1104
00:54:06,079 --> 00:54:07,800
Games it's spend an issue for both of.

1105
00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:07,880
Speaker 3: You.

1106
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:10,400
Speaker 1: Guys Kevin young, said you guys were kind of searching

1107
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:17,000
at this point of the. Season your thoughts on that, Commentary.

1108
00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:17,880
Speaker 8: Yeah ritchie actually told us last year that they went

1109
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:20,400
on like a losing. Streak they had three games in

1110
00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:23,079
the earl they lost, Twice so it was just, like,

1111
00:54:23,119 --> 00:54:24,519
bro you just gotta find. It and they still ended

1112
00:54:24,599 --> 00:54:26,280
up going to The sweet sixteen and having a chance

1113
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:28,280
to win it over there In. Jersey, SO i, mean

1114
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:30,039
we're trying to find our. IDENTITY i, mean we kind

1115
00:54:30,039 --> 00:54:31,400
of know what it is. Obviously we just got to

1116
00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:33,519
close out, games. RIGHT I, mean it was kind of

1117
00:54:33,519 --> 00:54:36,000
a problem that's being down fifteen in the first, half

1118
00:54:36,039 --> 00:54:38,119
but we kind of showed that we could fight in

1119
00:54:38,159 --> 00:54:39,880
the first. HALF i think we're wrenning down like seven

1120
00:54:40,519 --> 00:54:42,760
due to that put, Back but it's just closing out

1121
00:54:42,760 --> 00:54:46,400
games for. US i, think, Now, yeah we don't want

1122
00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:48,159
to get down. Seventeen we don't want to get bound.

1123
00:54:48,199 --> 00:54:50,119
Nineteen we don't want to get down twenty one to twenty,

1124
00:54:50,119 --> 00:54:50,639
two twenty.

1125
00:54:50,639 --> 00:54:53,159
Speaker 1: Three what's going to change? There Rob coach said that

1126
00:54:53,639 --> 00:54:55,760
was the hardest he went at you guys after the

1127
00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:57,559
lost lead to get to this. Game do you feel

1128
00:54:57,599 --> 00:55:02,000
like you matched up what he was, challenged challenging you

1129
00:55:02,079 --> 00:55:05,199
guys to. Do, yeah, no it's.

1130
00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:10,440
Speaker 3: UH i MEAN i think we definitely. Did we definitely

1131
00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:12,159
show flashes of. IT i think it's just putting it

1132
00:55:12,159 --> 00:55:14,519
all together and then just like they, say closing the game,

1133
00:55:14,559 --> 00:55:16,760
out just finishing out strong and not letting him get

1134
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:18,639
those second chance points because it ended up hurting.

1135
00:55:18,519 --> 00:55:22,039
Speaker 1: US a couple last things Here number, Eight, rob what

1136
00:55:22,119 --> 00:55:24,440
are your thoughts on going back To Baylor tuesday night

1137
00:55:24,519 --> 00:55:25,239
against your old?

1138
00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:31,960
Speaker 3: TEAM i think they just played, away stay. Tough SO i,

1139
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:34,119
mean obviously it's on the, road it's a big, twelve

1140
00:55:34,199 --> 00:55:36,239
so it's gonna be a tough, game just trying to

1141
00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:36,440
get a.

1142
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:43,440
Speaker 1: Win Where's rob originally? From? Where? Delaware he's The East?

1143
00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:49,760
Coast Huh. YEAH i didn't track obviously how he got To,

1144
00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:53,480
baylor but it sounds like he. Doesn't he really didn't

1145
00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:55,079
have any ties there To. Baylor he just went there

1146
00:55:55,079 --> 00:55:57,400
to play ball and that's why he kind of became

1147
00:55:57,519 --> 00:55:59,360
a little bit of a mercenaries, like oh, well there's

1148
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:02,920
some some changes the entire his entire. ROSTER i, MEAN

1149
00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:05,360
i don't did they have one player returning to that.

1150
00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:07,239
ROSTERIZED i don't think they. DID i think they had

1151
00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:10,960
complete attrition of the roster. On so he probably went

1152
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:13,920
with the uh it went the portal way because of.

1153
00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:15,880
That but you can tell there's not a whole lot

1154
00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:20,880
of like emotional connectivity to this game for. Him at,

1155
00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:23,039

1174
00:57:22,639 --> 00:57:24,400
right and there were a lot of stars on that team.

1175
00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:26,360
Too there are a lot of good players on that team's,

1176
00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:30,119
coming you can. Tell, SO, aj was there anything at

1177
00:57:30,119 --> 00:57:33,719
the free throw line where you feel that's where things slipped?

1178
00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:34,480
Up what's? Up?

1179
00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:37,400

1180
00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:40,280
Five that's unacceptable on my. Behalf BUT i think you

1181
00:57:40,360 --> 00:57:43,239
missed twelve as a team and we lost by you,

1182
00:57:43,239 --> 00:57:44,559
know lessons to us on. Me if you got to

1183
00:57:44,559 --> 00:57:46,079
step up there and make free, throws it's a different.

1184
00:57:46,119 --> 00:57:46,920
Game it's a different ball.

1185
00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:51,280
Speaker 1: Game, yeah so you, wonder, hey what is? It you,

1186

1187
00:57:53,039 --> 00:57:55,559
with the? Shot, ANYWAY, aj how do you turn the?

1188
00:57:55,559 --> 00:57:59,199
Page how do you move forward after this losing? STREAK i,

1189
00:57:59,239 --> 00:58:00,519
mean just execute the game plan.

1190
00:58:00,639 --> 00:58:03,199
Speaker 8: Still i'm just trusting the coaches and the staff what

1191
00:58:03,280 --> 00:58:04,880
their scout is for the other, Team but just go

1192
00:58:04,920 --> 00:58:07,199
out there and execute. IT i think we bounced back

1193

well From oklahoma stake a lot of teams and our

1194
00:58:10,039 --> 00:58:12,239
position that you know that's lost like three games in a,

1195
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:14,159
row would have just folded to a Team Mike houston

1196
00:58:14,159 --> 00:58:16,079
and got smacked by like. Thirty BUT i think we

1197
00:58:16,119 --> 00:58:18,119

1198
00:58:18,159 --> 00:58:20,719
