<v Speaker 3>Everybody. Welcome to Eye on the Ball Hero pok Sports

6
00:00:16.359 --> 00:00:19.600
<v Speaker 3>fourteen fifty. I'm Steve Rivera and with me today is

7
00:00:19.719 --> 00:00:23.800
<v Speaker 3>Troy Hutcheson once you gets here, and one, of course one,

8
00:00:23.839 --> 00:00:25.800
<v Speaker 3>how are you doing great? It was a great weekend

9
00:00:25.839 --> 00:00:28.039
<v Speaker 3>of sports. It was so let me, did you get

10
00:00:28.039 --> 00:00:31.920
<v Speaker 3>surprised by anything? I got surprised on one game in

11
00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:36.560
<v Speaker 3>the NFL. I thought the Bucks beating down on the Charges.

12
00:00:36.679 --> 00:00:40.719
<v Speaker 3>Was surprised. That was my lone miss last week. I

13
00:00:40.799 --> 00:00:43.880
<v Speaker 3>got my pick right. Who was it? Bronco? Oh yeah,

14
00:00:43.880 --> 00:00:45.679
<v Speaker 3>the Broncos. They were struggling. I was okay with that

15
00:00:45.759 --> 00:00:46.759
<v Speaker 3>until they came back.

16
00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:47.280
<v Speaker 4>And won that game.

17
00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:50.799
<v Speaker 3>Defense showed out for us again. Yes, they're doing well.

18
00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:55.119
<v Speaker 3>They're doing well, but I was thinking more locally than nationally.

19
00:00:56.560 --> 00:00:59.920
<v Speaker 3>Men's basketball game. That doesn't surprise you, did it?

20
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:00.280
<v Speaker 2>Now?

21
00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:02.920
<v Speaker 3>We both Jay and I said that they would lose.

22
00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:08.079
<v Speaker 5>It was the result wasn't surprising the way Arizona performed

23
00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:10.400
<v Speaker 5>a little bit because they they've kind of found a

24
00:01:10.480 --> 00:01:13.719
<v Speaker 5>rhythm for for a little bit and they lost it.

25
00:01:13.640 --> 00:01:15.760
<v Speaker 3>In the game. You mean yeah, yeah, because they were

26
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:17.719
<v Speaker 3>able to do the things that the we used to doing,

27
00:01:17.879 --> 00:01:20.719
<v Speaker 3>you know, running, scoring, on a transition. They just got

28
00:01:20.760 --> 00:01:21.400
<v Speaker 3>physical too.

29
00:01:21.640 --> 00:01:24.920
<v Speaker 5>They matched the UCLA's physicality at some at one point.

30
00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:28.640
<v Speaker 5>And then they couldn't find anything in the last nine minutes.

31
00:01:28.599 --> 00:01:31.519
<v Speaker 3>Right, right, And then all went to hell after that.

32
00:01:31.599 --> 00:01:34.079
<v Speaker 3>In the first in the last eight nine minutes, they

33
00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:36.159
<v Speaker 3>couldn't hit a shot, couldn't hit a basket, blah blah blah.

34
00:01:36.159 --> 00:01:39.400
<v Speaker 3>But that's been the fate the whole season. And you

35
00:01:39.400 --> 00:01:41.079
<v Speaker 3>probably don't read me, right, you probably don't read me

36
00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:44.560
<v Speaker 3>by Colin was about how disappointing it's been and to

37
00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:49.920
<v Speaker 3>the fans, to to to Tommy, he admitted, they're struggling

38
00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:53.000
<v Speaker 3>right now, and okay, and even a blind guy can

39
00:01:53.079 --> 00:01:55.480
<v Speaker 3>see that. Uh, they're not the team that we've seen,

40
00:01:55.680 --> 00:01:57.280
<v Speaker 3>not the thing that not the team that we thought

41
00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:01.560
<v Speaker 3>they would be. And there so many things. If you're

42
00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:04.239
<v Speaker 3>reading my story, I even said, there's too many things

43
00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:06.400
<v Speaker 3>right about to put it in there.

44
00:02:07.239 --> 00:02:11.520
<v Speaker 5>It's too much inconsistency across the board. It would be

45
00:02:11.560 --> 00:02:15.199
<v Speaker 5>one thing if they weren't hitting shots, but they were

46
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:18.759
<v Speaker 5>good on defense, or not good on defense but hitting shots.

47
00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:21.400
<v Speaker 3>It's it's all across them all. Yeah, it's just inconsistent.

48
00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:24.080
<v Speaker 3>You're exactly right with a lot of things, so much,

49
00:02:24.120 --> 00:02:26.919
<v Speaker 3>too so much to look at, and I'm not sure

50
00:02:26.919 --> 00:02:29.599
<v Speaker 3>it's fixable because there's too many things. If it was

51
00:02:29.680 --> 00:02:31.759
<v Speaker 3>just one or two things, it'd be okay, But too

52
00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:32.400
<v Speaker 3>many things.

53
00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:34.000
<v Speaker 5>I think, I think right now you have to look

54
00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:37.919
<v Speaker 5>at possibly just changing up the starting lineup. I thought,

55
00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:40.280
<v Speaker 5>I thought, give me your give me your lineup right now,

56
00:02:41.719 --> 00:02:48.240
<v Speaker 5>Jaden Bradley, kJ Lewis, Carter Bryant, Trade Townsend and Henry Basar.

57
00:02:48.360 --> 00:02:53.159
<v Speaker 3>Okay without without uh, I don't mind that that that lineup, uh,

58
00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:58.120
<v Speaker 3>knowing that you could lose uh, mister Caleb Love emotionally,

59
00:02:58.120 --> 00:02:59.400
<v Speaker 3>physically and all of the bove.

60
00:02:59.639 --> 00:03:03.039
<v Speaker 5>I think this might be something he might need just

61
00:03:03.039 --> 00:03:05.360
<v Speaker 5>just to get out of his own head. Maybe give

62
00:03:05.400 --> 00:03:08.879
<v Speaker 5>him a little bit of perspective, give him a chance

63
00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:12.840
<v Speaker 5>to just come off off the bench fresh, no pressure

64
00:03:12.919 --> 00:03:15.199
<v Speaker 5>to being the starter, having to make plays. He's just

65
00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:17.319
<v Speaker 5>trying to create something.

66
00:03:17.400 --> 00:03:19.439
<v Speaker 3>What's this fix? Truly?

67
00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:20.639
<v Speaker 2>You know.

68
00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:24.120
<v Speaker 6>You look at it right now? To me, the biggest

69
00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:27.639
<v Speaker 6>problem is the sister turnover ratio. Arisone has twenty two

70
00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:30.240
<v Speaker 6>turnovers in their last game. I think they finished with

71
00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:33.879
<v Speaker 6>like sixteen assists, So that's under usually doing. That's one

72
00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:37.479
<v Speaker 6>of Tommy Lloyd's bread and butters, the sister turnover. I

73
00:03:37.479 --> 00:03:39.639
<v Speaker 6>want to bet bench Love. I don't think you lose them,

74
00:03:39.759 --> 00:03:42.039
<v Speaker 6>to be honest, but I look at a guy like

75
00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:42.800
<v Speaker 6>Trade Townsend.

76
00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:44.919
<v Speaker 3>What's he doing on the court for Arizona. Yeah, he's

77
00:03:44.960 --> 00:03:47.759
<v Speaker 3>doing more harm than good. The positive there, Yeah, doing

78
00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:48.520
<v Speaker 3>more harm than good.

79
00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:51.520
<v Speaker 6>So if you go, if you go small and sert

80
00:03:51.639 --> 00:03:54.000
<v Speaker 6>kJ at the small forward position, have Carter at the

81
00:03:54.039 --> 00:03:57.280
<v Speaker 6>power forward and kind of just run the floor and.

82
00:03:57.199 --> 00:03:59.759
<v Speaker 3>Well yeah yeah yeah. So give me that lineup, and

83
00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:02.199
<v Speaker 3>I'll compare this lineup to another lineup that I that

84
00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:04.159
<v Speaker 3>I covered a lot of time ago. So you got

85
00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:07.919
<v Speaker 3>Jayden Bradley, You've got kJ Lewis, you got Caleb Love,

86
00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:11.280
<v Speaker 3>you got Carter Bryant, and then you go o waka walka. Okay,

87
00:04:11.280 --> 00:04:13.280
<v Speaker 3>so that's not bad. So let me let me give

88
00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:16.399
<v Speaker 3>this and this is this is twenty seven years ago, okay,

89
00:04:17.319 --> 00:04:20.639
<v Speaker 3>so so bear with me, and the names cannot be compared.

90
00:04:21.160 --> 00:04:23.480
<v Speaker 3>You got Mike Bibbie, you got Miles Simon, you got

91
00:04:23.519 --> 00:04:26.000
<v Speaker 3>Michael Dickerson in the back court, you had a J.

92
00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:28.600
<v Speaker 3>Brownley in the middle, marginal a J. Brandley right, and

93
00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:32.759
<v Speaker 3>and you had Bennet Davison. So so you small ish

94
00:04:33.240 --> 00:04:35.800
<v Speaker 3>throughout the whole lineup, right, but able to do a

95
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:38.000
<v Speaker 3>lot of different things. During the season, they were not

96
00:04:38.279 --> 00:04:41.639
<v Speaker 3>very impactful. When the tournament came, they were impactful. Uh

97
00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:44.800
<v Speaker 3>do I like that lineup? You may have no choice

98
00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:47.959
<v Speaker 3>because creevs Crevas has one hasn't played well and two

99
00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:49.800
<v Speaker 3>now he's out, So what are you losing?

100
00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:56.000
<v Speaker 6>Exactly? And I still think even with that lineup the

101
00:04:56.079 --> 00:04:59.160
<v Speaker 6>end of the day, who on Arizona's roster is the

102
00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:02.079
<v Speaker 6>guy that makes off? And as a distributor, only one

103
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:05.120
<v Speaker 6>guy is there? A guy jayde Bradley and not that.

104
00:05:05.560 --> 00:05:06.160
<v Speaker 6>Let me tell you something.

105
00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:08.319
<v Speaker 3>You and I. You and I sat next to each

106
00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:11.560
<v Speaker 3>other a lot last year, and what was my biggest complaint?

107
00:05:11.959 --> 00:05:13.800
<v Speaker 3>His head down? He dribbles with the head down, gets

108
00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:16.399
<v Speaker 3>to the basket, doesn't look at other options. He'll have

109
00:05:16.439 --> 00:05:18.439
<v Speaker 3>to change that a little bit. But and I asked

110
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:20.560
<v Speaker 3>the question of Tommy, I mean, if you don't have

111
00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:23.120
<v Speaker 3>Caleb Love. Do you have to go to the guy

112
00:05:23.160 --> 00:05:25.240
<v Speaker 3>next to you Jayde and Bradley more often to kind

113
00:05:25.240 --> 00:05:27.600
<v Speaker 3>of pull you out and in a role He probably

114
00:05:27.600 --> 00:05:30.120
<v Speaker 3>didn't remember that. She's probably too young when Jason Terry

115
00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:32.560
<v Speaker 3>in nineteen ninety nine took over the team and had

116
00:05:32.560 --> 00:05:35.759
<v Speaker 3>this college basketball player of the year type of stuff

117
00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:38.639
<v Speaker 3>because he had no choice but to score thirty points

118
00:05:38.680 --> 00:05:41.519
<v Speaker 3>a game. And not that Jayden needs to, but he's

119
00:05:41.560 --> 00:05:43.759
<v Speaker 3>the guy with the ball. He loves having the ball,

120
00:05:43.920 --> 00:05:46.519
<v Speaker 3>he loves shooting the ball, loves attacking the ball. They

121
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:49.920
<v Speaker 3>have none of that outside of Jayden Bradley. Yeah, that's

122
00:05:49.920 --> 00:05:50.279
<v Speaker 3>about it.

123
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:53.120
<v Speaker 6>And you look at this gun man's UCLA twelve points

124
00:05:53.160 --> 00:05:56.360
<v Speaker 6>and a fishing twelve points four seven shooting. He only

125
00:05:56.399 --> 00:06:00.639
<v Speaker 6>took seven shots, right, you weren't very aggressive. Meanwhile, Caleb Love,

126
00:06:00.680 --> 00:06:03.519
<v Speaker 6>no offense, Caleb Love, but three of ten from the floor,

127
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:06.319
<v Speaker 6>seven points, one of seven from the three point line.

128
00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:08.839
<v Speaker 6>You're just chucking up shots. How could a guy regress

129
00:06:08.879 --> 00:06:09.439
<v Speaker 6>so much?

130
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:12.600
<v Speaker 3>Honestly, the guy we know, the guy could play right

131
00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:16.319
<v Speaker 3>eight games now, nine games now, and give me a

132
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:18.839
<v Speaker 3>good game, give me a pick a game, any game.

133
00:06:18.879 --> 00:06:19.879
<v Speaker 3>And he had a good game.

134
00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:23.879
<v Speaker 6>I think he had one in the Bahamas, but they

135
00:06:23.920 --> 00:06:26.800
<v Speaker 6>lost that game. I think it was West Virginia.

136
00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:29.079
<v Speaker 3>So how could a guy who regress so much or

137
00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:31.360
<v Speaker 3>just being a funk so much? I mean, okay near

138
00:06:31.439 --> 00:06:34.560
<v Speaker 3>me now and again maybe, but nine eight of nine games, Well, I.

139
00:06:34.560 --> 00:06:36.920
<v Speaker 6>Think it's what we saw at the beginning, well not sab,

140
00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:39.360
<v Speaker 6>but heard at the beginning of the season from Caleb

141
00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:40.600
<v Speaker 6>Love and from Tommy Lloyd.

142
00:06:40.759 --> 00:06:42.560
<v Speaker 3>Changing is that they're going to change his role.

143
00:06:42.639 --> 00:06:44.959
<v Speaker 6>They're going to make him play off the ball and

144
00:06:44.959 --> 00:06:47.079
<v Speaker 6>not have the ball in his hands and dictate the offense.

145
00:06:48.360 --> 00:06:50.279
<v Speaker 6>You're asking a guy to do something he's not used

146
00:06:50.279 --> 00:06:52.319
<v Speaker 6>to doing or even capable of doing.

147
00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:55.879
<v Speaker 3>Well. Well, I talked to an NBA guy over the

148
00:06:55.879 --> 00:06:59.240
<v Speaker 3>weekend and there's so many issues with him that I asked,

149
00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:02.279
<v Speaker 3>why is he eighty fourth among the draftees And there's

150
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:07.079
<v Speaker 3>obviously more on court, off court type of things, personality, Uh,

151
00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:09.360
<v Speaker 3>but he's not impressive. He's not impressive to the NBA.

152
00:07:09.720 --> 00:07:13.680
<v Speaker 3>So this is his NBA season, Yeah, because he won't

153
00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:16.120
<v Speaker 3>have a shot next season if this continues. And I'm

154
00:07:16.160 --> 00:07:18.879
<v Speaker 3>talking to even just a shot, because he's apparently not

155
00:07:18.920 --> 00:07:21.399
<v Speaker 3>good enough at eighty fourth being. You know he might be,

156
00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:24.120
<v Speaker 3>but well, I mean, as you packtroll player of the Year,

157
00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:25.920
<v Speaker 3>and it wasn't good. It wasn't good, right, right, And

158
00:07:26.040 --> 00:07:28.439
<v Speaker 3>you're thinking, wasn't How is that possible? But you kind

159
00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:33.000
<v Speaker 3>of other know other things, right, Tommy, Tommy's getting paid

160
00:07:33.000 --> 00:07:35.120
<v Speaker 3>a lot of money. Now, he's gonna get paid to

161
00:07:35.800 --> 00:07:38.240
<v Speaker 3>figure this out. You know, just got that extension not

162
00:07:38.279 --> 00:07:40.600
<v Speaker 3>too long ago. Yeah, I think it's five millions something

163
00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:44.560
<v Speaker 3>like that. Five years, right, five million years right. Now,

164
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:46.920
<v Speaker 3>he's gonna have to get paid. I just don't understand

165
00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:53.680
<v Speaker 3>his regression. Kj's regression. Carter hasn't been amazing. Carter hasn't

166
00:07:53.720 --> 00:07:56.839
<v Speaker 3>been the McDonald's all American that we expect to see.

167
00:07:57.439 --> 00:08:00.720
<v Speaker 3>Uh And okay, so you were there with me and

168
00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:05.319
<v Speaker 3>we won't go into names, Troy, when we were sat

169
00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:07.160
<v Speaker 3>down to write, right, and we were talking to some

170
00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:10.800
<v Speaker 3>people in the in the media kind of what's wrong

171
00:08:10.839 --> 00:08:13.720
<v Speaker 3>with this team? They were talking talent. Yeah, they were

172
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:16.920
<v Speaker 3>talking talent. So the transfer portal was not kind to

173
00:08:17.040 --> 00:08:21.120
<v Speaker 3>Arizona at least to this point. A Waka is okay.

174
00:08:21.920 --> 00:08:25.439
<v Speaker 3>Townsend has been not so okay. Dyla also has been

175
00:08:25.959 --> 00:08:30.120
<v Speaker 3>more off and on and they were coming from smaller schools,

176
00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:33.639
<v Speaker 3>and you're thinking, maybe they're just not good enough to

177
00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:36.799
<v Speaker 3>play here. I mean, that's what they were saying, and

178
00:08:36.840 --> 00:08:39.279
<v Speaker 3>I trust what they're saying. I don't know that yet.

179
00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:41.879
<v Speaker 3>I don't know that yet. But you have to look

180
00:08:41.879 --> 00:08:42.519
<v Speaker 3>at it, don't you.

181
00:08:42.960 --> 00:08:46.600
<v Speaker 6>Well, And you know, coach Cronin talked about it after

182
00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:49.399
<v Speaker 6>the game in his own kind of crone In way. Yeah,

183
00:08:49.519 --> 00:08:51.320
<v Speaker 6>it's like, Okay, I'm used to seeing a waka in

184
00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:54.320
<v Speaker 6>the SEC playing that's style basketball. I'm used to playing

185
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:59.000
<v Speaker 6>in town, seeing Townsend at Oakland, well, all those schools

186
00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:03.200
<v Speaker 6>that they named, very different styles and very different pieces.

187
00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:09.000
<v Speaker 3>So well, it's funny because I foolishly look at Twitter

188
00:09:09.080 --> 00:09:12.519
<v Speaker 3>and Facebook foolishly because I'm it's just too me, some

189
00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:15.519
<v Speaker 3>mess everybody all we wish we had Sean Miller. They're

190
00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:18.879
<v Speaker 3>half Sean Miller. It's his offense right now because Arizona

191
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:21.399
<v Speaker 3>can't Arizona can't run, they can't do what they've done

192
00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:21.919
<v Speaker 3>in the past.

193
00:09:21.960 --> 00:09:24.240
<v Speaker 6>And I'll say this, if Sean Miller had this team,

194
00:09:24.679 --> 00:09:28.080
<v Speaker 6>there'd be no hope. No, Tommy is a much better

195
00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:31.879
<v Speaker 6>offensive developer, and I think a developer talent than Seawan

196
00:09:31.919 --> 00:09:34.320
<v Speaker 6>ever was Yes, yeah, fans don't like to hear it,

197
00:09:34.360 --> 00:09:36.480
<v Speaker 6>but you had five star recruits. He had top ten

198
00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:40.000
<v Speaker 6>recruiting classes that he didn't do, you know anything? Well,

199
00:09:40.039 --> 00:09:42.279
<v Speaker 6>sure ended in the Elite eight Aaron Gordon? Did he

200
00:09:42.320 --> 00:09:43.639
<v Speaker 6>get that much better from beginning?

201
00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:47.360
<v Speaker 3>Dan? No, They the guy they relied on was TJ.

202
00:09:47.480 --> 00:09:53.360
<v Speaker 3>McConnell and uh someone Johnson Solomon Hill. Yeah, and that

203
00:09:53.440 --> 00:09:55.840
<v Speaker 3>was really that was really the yeah, yeah, no, and

204
00:09:56.519 --> 00:09:59.879
<v Speaker 3>we gotta hello, you're on the air and eye of

205
00:09:59.919 --> 00:10:01.519
<v Speaker 3>the Oh, who's this this?

206
00:10:01.799 --> 00:10:02.120
<v Speaker 2>Brian?

207
00:10:02.559 --> 00:10:03.960
<v Speaker 3>Brian? You are you alive?

208
00:10:04.200 --> 00:10:04.480
<v Speaker 2>Okay?

209
00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:05.000
<v Speaker 3>Okay?

210
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:06.440
<v Speaker 2>Are you okay?

211
00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:07.840
<v Speaker 7>It was terrible Saturday.

212
00:10:08.759 --> 00:10:10.679
<v Speaker 2>It was like the worst drive home I've ever had.

213
00:10:10.759 --> 00:10:12.960
<v Speaker 3>Oh, so you you went to know, I know, and hey,

214
00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:15.679
<v Speaker 3>there's no excuses, right. The crowd was in their favorite

215
00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:16.399
<v Speaker 3>you know.

216
00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:18.960
<v Speaker 2>I thought, you know, with seven forty two to go

217
00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:21.879
<v Speaker 2>and we had the big lead and everything, and then

218
00:10:22.159 --> 00:10:24.360
<v Speaker 2>you know, the one the big change I thought is

219
00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:27.320
<v Speaker 2>when they brought that big man in the game, when

220
00:10:27.320 --> 00:10:30.080
<v Speaker 2>he took the center, the skinny center out and they

221
00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:30.919
<v Speaker 2>brought the other kid in.

222
00:10:31.159 --> 00:10:33.840
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, he just ate us up alive in the middle.

223
00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:36.000
<v Speaker 3>Was that the organ State guy? The guy who ate

224
00:10:36.039 --> 00:10:37.879
<v Speaker 3>you up last year as well for Oregon.

225
00:10:37.639 --> 00:10:40.600
<v Speaker 2>State, right right, he did. Yeah, he hammered us last year.

226
00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:44.600
<v Speaker 2>Wednesday brought him in, but then also too. I just thought, okay,

227
00:10:44.960 --> 00:10:47.279
<v Speaker 2>but we didn't match them shot for shot, which was

228
00:10:47.320 --> 00:10:49.600
<v Speaker 2>really a problem. We came down the court and all

229
00:10:49.600 --> 00:10:51.639
<v Speaker 2>of a sudden, we're jacking up threes instead of working

230
00:10:51.639 --> 00:10:54.879
<v Speaker 2>the ball and working the block. And I just thought that,

231
00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:58.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, Tommy Lloyd did not make any kind of adjustments,

232
00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:01.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, bring somebody in maybe to put a physical

233
00:11:01.639 --> 00:11:04.559
<v Speaker 2>body on that guy, you know, but we we didn't

234
00:11:04.600 --> 00:11:06.799
<v Speaker 2>do it. You know, Uh, you had all kinds of

235
00:11:06.799 --> 00:11:10.080
<v Speaker 2>fouls to waste. Why not, so you know we're shooting

236
00:11:10.080 --> 00:11:13.000
<v Speaker 2>that welpon a free throw line either And I just

237
00:11:13.080 --> 00:11:16.720
<v Speaker 2>I would just shock about how no adjustments were made

238
00:11:16.759 --> 00:11:18.639
<v Speaker 2>the last almost eight minutes of the game.

239
00:11:19.399 --> 00:11:22.480
<v Speaker 6>Well, I was going to say to Tommy's not defense,

240
00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:23.919
<v Speaker 6>but you have to look at it in this way.

241
00:11:23.960 --> 00:11:25.840
<v Speaker 6>He had one time out in the last eight minutes

242
00:11:25.879 --> 00:11:28.559
<v Speaker 6>and forty six seconds of that game because kJ Lewis

243
00:11:28.559 --> 00:11:30.840
<v Speaker 6>called that time out to change to save the possession,

244
00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:33.600
<v Speaker 6>which you know what, take the turnover there, Jayme and

245
00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:35.360
<v Speaker 6>Bradley called that one time out before you step out

246
00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:35.679
<v Speaker 6>of bounce.

247
00:11:35.679 --> 00:11:37.679
<v Speaker 7>I do like that time out, right, And I know

248
00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:38.639
<v Speaker 7>that there was two up.

249
00:11:38.559 --> 00:11:40.919
<v Speaker 2>One on one on the floor where they had to

250
00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:43.679
<v Speaker 2>jump ball. Yeah, it was going to be a jump

251
00:11:43.720 --> 00:11:45.320
<v Speaker 2>ball called the time out.

252
00:11:45.519 --> 00:11:47.200
<v Speaker 3>I believe it would have been the UCLA's ball and

253
00:11:47.279 --> 00:11:47.960
<v Speaker 3>that jump ball.

254
00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:51.840
<v Speaker 6>Even even so, you kind of eat that if you're

255
00:11:51.879 --> 00:11:54.559
<v Speaker 6>able to have two timeouts in that last eight minutes there,

256
00:11:54.879 --> 00:11:57.399
<v Speaker 6>I think Tommy's able to call time out in the

257
00:11:57.399 --> 00:12:00.960
<v Speaker 6>five to four minute mark kind of reset things without that.

258
00:12:01.919 --> 00:12:04.679
<v Speaker 2>Even when a call timeouts, we didn't make adjustments.

259
00:12:04.759 --> 00:12:06.320
<v Speaker 3>So let me say, let me ask you this, Bud.

260
00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:08.639
<v Speaker 3>So you're driving home an hour, an hour and a half,

261
00:12:08.679 --> 00:12:09.759
<v Speaker 3>two hours, whatever it was.

262
00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:11.399
<v Speaker 2>What do you think eier than that? I had to

263
00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:12.200
<v Speaker 2>go to the bar Furst.

264
00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:16.240
<v Speaker 3>Well, when you're drinking and thinking, are you thinking they

265
00:12:16.240 --> 00:12:17.720
<v Speaker 3>have a chance to get out of this mess?

266
00:12:19.279 --> 00:12:21.039
<v Speaker 7>You know the way you look at it, I don't

267
00:12:21.080 --> 00:12:21.480
<v Speaker 7>think they do.

268
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:24.120
<v Speaker 3>It's gonna be tough. And I wrote that. I don't

269
00:12:24.120 --> 00:12:26.679
<v Speaker 3>know if you're reading me bright, but exactly they're going

270
00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:30.440
<v Speaker 3>into it steeper, steeper, Uh, get harder now, Yeah, it's

271
00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:33.559
<v Speaker 3>gonna get harder against easier team, against stuffer teams for

272
00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:35.440
<v Speaker 3>not just one or two, it's seven.

273
00:12:36.240 --> 00:12:38.360
<v Speaker 2>It's it's it's game after game now. I mean, if

274
00:12:38.360 --> 00:12:40.639
<v Speaker 2>you look at it, you know we've lost five games.

275
00:12:40.679 --> 00:12:45.639
<v Speaker 2>We lost five games against quality opponents, and we really

276
00:12:45.639 --> 00:12:49.440
<v Speaker 2>haven't looked that great against quality opponents. And you're right now,

277
00:12:49.720 --> 00:12:51.840
<v Speaker 2>that's all we're going to have after starting in January.

278
00:12:51.960 --> 00:12:53.799
<v Speaker 3>Well, let me say this, Okay, you put U CLI

279
00:12:53.799 --> 00:12:56.240
<v Speaker 3>in the big twelve before they finish. You put Duke

280
00:12:56.279 --> 00:12:58.120
<v Speaker 3>in the where they finished probably at the top, near

281
00:12:58.159 --> 00:12:58.440
<v Speaker 3>the top.

282
00:12:58.639 --> 00:13:00.799
<v Speaker 2>But the other teams are don't know if U c

283
00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:02.480
<v Speaker 2>l A does, but I think Duke doesn't.

284
00:13:02.559 --> 00:13:04.919
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Yeah, but that's my point. You're gonna have teams

285
00:13:04.919 --> 00:13:09.480
<v Speaker 3>better than Uclah. Yeah, Wisconsin, Wisconsin. I mean, come on,

286
00:13:09.600 --> 00:13:10.960
<v Speaker 3>and you're gonna be on the road trying to win

287
00:13:11.120 --> 00:13:13.000
<v Speaker 3>with this. I you know that for the first time,

288
00:13:13.080 --> 00:13:14.799
<v Speaker 3>for the first time. And I don't doubt Tommy at all,

289
00:13:14.840 --> 00:13:17.559
<v Speaker 3>because I think he's a very good coach. That he

290
00:13:17.679 --> 00:13:20.039
<v Speaker 3>made some decisions that were just kind of strange to me.

291
00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:23.000
<v Speaker 3>In fact, I turned to my right one one moment

292
00:13:23.080 --> 00:13:26.679
<v Speaker 3>in the first first the first half, I turned to uh,

293
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:29.440
<v Speaker 3>to Brian Peterson, I said, this is a weird lineup.

294
00:13:29.559 --> 00:13:31.159
<v Speaker 3>It's not gonna get you any points. It's not gonna

295
00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:33.039
<v Speaker 3>get you anything. And then he says, well, they're kind

296
00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:35.399
<v Speaker 3>of resting the other guys. I'm thinking, you don't need rest,

297
00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:38.600
<v Speaker 3>you don't need rest. You got this course of moment.

298
00:13:38.639 --> 00:13:40.360
<v Speaker 2>You've had a week off and now you've got another

299
00:13:40.360 --> 00:13:46.399
<v Speaker 2>week off. Yeah, yeah, and I got you know, I

300
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:49.279
<v Speaker 2>just don't know if they're using Carter Bryant the right way,

301
00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:52.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, I mean, you know, put him in a couple.

302
00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:54.759
<v Speaker 7>Of minutes a game. It's like anybody needs to flow.

303
00:13:54.600 --> 00:13:57.399
<v Speaker 2>The game to play. Yeah, and he doesn't. He doesn't

304
00:13:57.399 --> 00:13:59.919
<v Speaker 2>seem I mean, he played well at times, and then

305
00:14:00.399 --> 00:14:01.279
<v Speaker 2>to take him out and.

306
00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:03.919
<v Speaker 7>And then if it was non existing in the.

307
00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:06.799
<v Speaker 2>Second half, and I'm sitting there going, why not put

308
00:14:06.840 --> 00:14:08.919
<v Speaker 2>him on that big guy for a few minutes or

309
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:11.159
<v Speaker 2>put the other guy who they took out never brought

310
00:14:11.200 --> 00:14:11.840
<v Speaker 2>back in again.

311
00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:14.679
<v Speaker 3>Well, here's my thought on this, and I never said

312
00:14:14.720 --> 00:14:17.000
<v Speaker 3>this before, just out of it. He's a McDonald's All American,

313
00:14:17.159 --> 00:14:19.639
<v Speaker 3>and of all the McDonald's All Americans I've covered here,

314
00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:22.879
<v Speaker 3>especially in loose time, never failed to be very impressive

315
00:14:22.879 --> 00:14:26.320
<v Speaker 3>in their first year. Brian has not been that guy yet.

316
00:14:27.799 --> 00:14:30.919
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well I would just like I would liked to scene,

317
00:14:31.480 --> 00:14:34.080
<v Speaker 2>you know, you know, I mean, balls are going out

318
00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:36.080
<v Speaker 2>of bounds. You still could have put a sub in

319
00:14:36.320 --> 00:14:38.799
<v Speaker 2>whatever to put on that guy, just to kind of

320
00:14:38.799 --> 00:14:40.759
<v Speaker 2>slow him down a little bit, you.

321
00:14:40.679 --> 00:14:44.639
<v Speaker 7>Know, because you know, pleasure the turnovers, I mean, twenty seven.

430
00:19:36.559 --> 00:19:38.359
<v Speaker 3>Mondays right. It's been like that for football and for

431
00:19:38.440 --> 00:19:42.640
<v Speaker 3>basketball for months now. This this, uh, this program has

432
00:19:42.680 --> 00:19:44.960
<v Speaker 3>been kissed with us, kiss the death for a lot

433
00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:48.279
<v Speaker 3>of things. It's it's probably one of the words we

434
00:19:48.319 --> 00:19:51.400
<v Speaker 3>got to call. Okay, Hello, you're on the air and

435
00:19:51.440 --> 00:19:54.160
<v Speaker 3>I on the ball. Is this coach? It is? How

436
00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:57.160
<v Speaker 3>are you fine? Coach? How are you? Thanks for calling in? Uh?

440
00:20:06.799 --> 00:20:10.480
<v Speaker 3>Uh. You started very well, obviously with all those wins.

441
00:20:11.200 --> 00:20:14.559
<v Speaker 3>I'm assuming you especially because your second year, after your

442
00:20:14.559 --> 00:20:17.640
<v Speaker 3>first year of maybe a little struggle, that was welcoming

443
00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:20.240
<v Speaker 3>in as much as you got the players to learn

444
00:20:20.279 --> 00:20:20.720
<v Speaker 3>how to win.

445
00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:25.160
<v Speaker 15>Yes, my goal was to go out and recruit athletes

446
00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:28.880
<v Speaker 15>that were Gator eight Player of the Year, state champions,

447
00:20:28.960 --> 00:20:31.720
<v Speaker 15>won at the club level, just so I can come

448
00:20:31.720 --> 00:20:34.079
<v Speaker 15>in and already have that ingrained, and then while we

449
00:20:34.079 --> 00:20:36.799
<v Speaker 15>were still teaching up the ones that were in the

450
00:20:36.839 --> 00:20:40.480
<v Speaker 15>program that were great athletes and understood the game but

451
00:20:40.680 --> 00:20:43.000
<v Speaker 15>just hadn't had a lot of success being here at

452
00:20:43.000 --> 00:20:43.359
<v Speaker 15>the time.

453
00:20:44.160 --> 00:20:46.599
<v Speaker 3>This is a dumb question to ask your coach. Has

454
00:20:46.599 --> 00:20:51.279
<v Speaker 3>it even surprised you?

455
00:20:51.279 --> 00:20:53.839
<v Speaker 15>You know, I haven't really sat back and thought about it,

456
00:20:53.880 --> 00:20:56.559
<v Speaker 15>just because I'm trying to take one day at a time,

457
00:20:57.000 --> 00:20:58.759
<v Speaker 15>but not if you say it that way, and because

458
00:20:58.799 --> 00:21:01.599
<v Speaker 15>I paused for a minute, yet I am surprised in

459
00:21:01.599 --> 00:21:02.200
<v Speaker 15>a good way though.

460
00:21:02.279 --> 00:21:05.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, of course, of course, But I'm talking about

461
00:21:05.119 --> 00:21:08.559
<v Speaker 3>the entirety of the season. But after the wins early,

462
00:21:09.079 --> 00:21:11.440
<v Speaker 3>probably some struggles, but also doing well in the Big

463
00:21:11.480 --> 00:21:14.720
<v Speaker 3>twelve and now this it probably not so much because

464
00:21:14.759 --> 00:21:17.759
<v Speaker 3>you've seen it and you realized it.

465
00:21:17.680 --> 00:21:21.319
<v Speaker 15>Right right, you know. I've been on teams that have

466
00:21:21.480 --> 00:21:24.599
<v Speaker 15>won and teams that have lost, and you know, there's

467
00:21:24.640 --> 00:21:28.519
<v Speaker 15>a formula to it each year, but it's slightly different.

468
00:21:28.559 --> 00:21:30.480
<v Speaker 15>You just tweak it here, you tweak it there, and

469
00:21:30.920 --> 00:21:33.640
<v Speaker 15>get the right players into those pieces. And so every

470
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:36.720
<v Speaker 15>day is a new day, and so I just tried

471
00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:38.799
<v Speaker 15>to prepare myself just to be ready for this day

472
00:21:39.279 --> 00:21:40.960
<v Speaker 15>and tackle it and then be ready for.

473
00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:41.480
<v Speaker 2>The next day.

474
00:21:42.079 --> 00:21:45.039
<v Speaker 6>So, as you guys have gone through this run, just

475
00:21:45.079 --> 00:21:49.319
<v Speaker 6>seeing the fans support from Arizona for volleyball and seeing

476
00:21:49.319 --> 00:21:53.720
<v Speaker 6>that re energized after not having postseason volleyball for so long,

477
00:21:54.000 --> 00:21:57.079
<v Speaker 6>what does that mean to you? Helping this program rebuild

478
00:21:57.119 --> 00:21:58.200
<v Speaker 6>it self in that way.

479
00:21:59.440 --> 00:22:02.279
<v Speaker 15>You know, we have a great base with our season

480
00:22:02.319 --> 00:22:04.880
<v Speaker 15>ticket holders. I mean they email me all the time

481
00:22:05.039 --> 00:22:08.039
<v Speaker 15>or they'll send me messages or green treats and things

482
00:22:08.079 --> 00:22:10.240
<v Speaker 15>like that. So to me, it's really exciting to be

483
00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:12.799
<v Speaker 15>able to give something back to them because at the

484
00:22:12.880 --> 00:22:14.640
<v Speaker 15>end of the day, all they want is for us

485
00:22:14.680 --> 00:22:18.079
<v Speaker 15>to work hard and put ourselves in a position to

486
00:22:18.279 --> 00:22:19.920
<v Speaker 15>be the best that we can be, and they'll show

487
00:22:19.960 --> 00:22:23.000
<v Speaker 15>their support regardless. So being able to be in an

488
00:22:23.079 --> 00:22:25.200
<v Speaker 15>environment where they can come out and watch us play

489
00:22:25.279 --> 00:22:27.880
<v Speaker 15>even more and then go to this journey with us

490
00:22:28.000 --> 00:22:30.240
<v Speaker 15>is amazing. I mean, I love every minute of it.

491
00:22:30.960 --> 00:22:32.640
<v Speaker 3>You've been here for a while, so I'm sure you

492
00:22:32.680 --> 00:22:37.680
<v Speaker 3>saw the surge or resurgence or surge of idea when

493
00:22:37.720 --> 00:22:40.000
<v Speaker 3>she was going through this and the WNIT and stuff

494
00:22:40.039 --> 00:22:42.599
<v Speaker 3>like that. And I've been here a long time, coach,

495
00:22:42.839 --> 00:22:46.160
<v Speaker 3>and I didn't ever imagine ever imagine that the women's

496
00:22:46.160 --> 00:22:49.519
<v Speaker 3>basketball program would sell out a wnit and now reach

497
00:22:49.559 --> 00:22:52.400
<v Speaker 3>the heights that it's done. And that's just because you know,

498
00:22:52.559 --> 00:22:54.200
<v Speaker 3>we've been here so long, we never saw it and

499
00:22:54.240 --> 00:22:57.279
<v Speaker 3>then it happened. I'm assuming that you're wishing something like

500
00:22:57.319 --> 00:22:58.599
<v Speaker 3>this catches fire with you.

501
00:22:59.599 --> 00:23:03.799
<v Speaker 15>Absolute because I've watched men's basketball, I've watched softball, and

502
00:23:03.839 --> 00:23:07.160
<v Speaker 15>I watched women's basketball go from picking any seat you

503
00:23:07.200 --> 00:23:10.440
<v Speaker 15>want at any given time to now having to reserve

504
00:23:10.519 --> 00:23:13.279
<v Speaker 15>the seats and you know it be in a packed environment.

505
00:23:13.359 --> 00:23:15.559
<v Speaker 15>I know that we can do it. For volleyball, it's

506
00:23:15.599 --> 00:23:17.880
<v Speaker 15>just a matter of everyone coming out and seeing it

507
00:23:17.920 --> 00:23:20.640
<v Speaker 15>because it's a contagious sport. You know, you may not

508
00:23:20.759 --> 00:23:23.720
<v Speaker 15>know all the ins and outs of it, but it's fun.

509
00:23:23.799 --> 00:23:26.440
<v Speaker 15>You know, when the long rally goes and and then

510
00:23:26.480 --> 00:23:28.559
<v Speaker 15>the players are running across the court getting the ball

511
00:23:28.680 --> 00:23:30.799
<v Speaker 15>up and cheering and celebrating.

512
00:23:30.599 --> 00:23:31.240
<v Speaker 3>It's amazing.

513
00:23:31.359 --> 00:23:34.200
<v Speaker 15>So my goal is to get our arena packed and

514
00:23:34.240 --> 00:23:35.519
<v Speaker 15>put fans in the stands.

515
00:23:36.440 --> 00:23:39.240
<v Speaker 6>Is there any chance that coach Rubio will be there

516
00:23:39.279 --> 00:23:40.920
<v Speaker 6>for the big game coming up?

517
00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:43.599
<v Speaker 15>Yes, he's actually been at the last every game that

518
00:23:43.640 --> 00:23:46.880
<v Speaker 15>we've had for the in IBC he's been there and

519
00:23:46.920 --> 00:23:49.559
<v Speaker 15>he'll be here tomorrow night. Yes him, yesterday.

520
00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:53.160
<v Speaker 3>Very nice. Let me tell you I covered volleyball at

521
00:23:53.160 --> 00:23:55.680
<v Speaker 3>the Olympics in Greece a while back. In the craziness

522
00:23:55.680 --> 00:23:58.480
<v Speaker 3>of that was because these athletes are unbelievable. And then

523
00:23:58.519 --> 00:24:01.680
<v Speaker 3>the last week or so, I've been watching the NCAA's right,

524
00:24:01.759 --> 00:24:04.480
<v Speaker 3>last night, i watched the big Penn State game, and

525
00:24:04.559 --> 00:24:07.559
<v Speaker 3>I'm thinking, these women are fantastic at what they do.

526
00:24:08.000 --> 00:24:10.319
<v Speaker 3>Balls coming to what you give me the speed because

527
00:24:10.359 --> 00:24:15.200
<v Speaker 3>it's coming fast and hard. Just the kind of maybe

528
00:24:15.279 --> 00:24:17.200
<v Speaker 3>underappreciated talent that they have.

529
00:24:18.799 --> 00:24:21.319
<v Speaker 15>You know, it's such an unforgiving sport, especially when you

530
00:24:21.400 --> 00:24:23.920
<v Speaker 15>start out young, because everyone knows when it's your fault.

531
00:24:23.960 --> 00:24:25.920
<v Speaker 15>So if the ball falls near you, whether you know

532
00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:27.839
<v Speaker 15>the game or not, you go, oh, that's your fault,

533
00:24:28.240 --> 00:24:29.920
<v Speaker 15>or the ball you hit it out of balance, Oh

534
00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:33.119
<v Speaker 15>that's your fault. Where there's actually different areas of it

535
00:24:33.240 --> 00:24:36.480
<v Speaker 15>that determine who's going to do what. But it's a

536
00:24:36.559 --> 00:24:38.920
<v Speaker 15>sport that you can just get with and then you

537
00:24:39.079 --> 00:24:40.799
<v Speaker 15>explain it. So one of the things that we did

538
00:24:40.880 --> 00:24:43.319
<v Speaker 15>this year, which I think helped with our Zona Zoo,

539
00:24:43.519 --> 00:24:45.799
<v Speaker 15>is that we brought them in and taught them how

540
00:24:45.799 --> 00:24:48.319
<v Speaker 15>to play volleyball and gave them an opportunity to kind

541
00:24:48.359 --> 00:24:50.440
<v Speaker 15>of see what we go through. And then at the

542
00:24:50.599 --> 00:24:52.759
<v Speaker 15>end they played and the players were the ones in

543
00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:55.039
<v Speaker 15>the stands cheering them on or booing them.

544
00:24:55.319 --> 00:24:56.000
<v Speaker 2>And things like that.

545
00:24:56.200 --> 00:24:58.359
<v Speaker 15>And so that's something I want to do with our

546
00:24:58.640 --> 00:25:00.640
<v Speaker 15>season ticket holders, and so we a plan for that

547
00:25:00.799 --> 00:25:01.640
<v Speaker 15>this spring as well.

548
00:25:02.160 --> 00:25:03.279
<v Speaker 3>Very cool, very different, good.

549
00:25:03.599 --> 00:25:06.559
<v Speaker 6>So how can you guys use this as a And

550
00:25:06.720 --> 00:25:08.279
<v Speaker 6>Steve kind of brought it up in terms of the

551
00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:11.680
<v Speaker 6>boosts that I gave women's basketball, but the recruiting side

552
00:25:11.680 --> 00:25:14.960
<v Speaker 6>of it for volleyball moving forward for the program.

553
00:25:15.880 --> 00:25:19.400
<v Speaker 15>Well, we're still marketing. You know, there's six teams plan

554
00:25:19.680 --> 00:25:22.440
<v Speaker 15>right now. Everyone else in the country is finished where

555
00:25:22.640 --> 00:25:24.720
<v Speaker 15>you know, two will be here and others will be

556
00:25:24.799 --> 00:25:28.359
<v Speaker 15>planned this week in Louisville. So it's like, okay, now

557
00:25:28.400 --> 00:25:32.519
<v Speaker 15>what Arizona volleyball? You just continue to become relevant to them,

558
00:25:32.839 --> 00:25:34.720
<v Speaker 15>and we want to present that to our recruits that

559
00:25:34.799 --> 00:25:37.559
<v Speaker 15>we're going to always expect and plan to be planned

560
00:25:37.599 --> 00:25:38.319
<v Speaker 15>late in December.

561
00:25:39.000 --> 00:25:41.359
<v Speaker 3>How did the Big twelve schedule prepare you for this

562
00:25:41.599 --> 00:25:45.440
<v Speaker 3>one and two? I'm sure you had to be disappointed

563
00:25:45.480 --> 00:25:46.799
<v Speaker 3>that you didn't make the tournament.

564
00:25:48.039 --> 00:25:51.640
<v Speaker 15>Well, definitely disappointed that we didn't make the tournament. But

565
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:54.519
<v Speaker 15>I am of the mindset that you can't be happy

566
00:25:54.599 --> 00:25:57.400
<v Speaker 15>and sad at the same time. And so once that

567
00:25:57.599 --> 00:25:59.680
<v Speaker 15>day was over, I said, okay, let it go. Now

568
00:25:59.680 --> 00:26:01.440
<v Speaker 15>we got to go out there and I got to

569
00:26:01.519 --> 00:26:04.759
<v Speaker 15>show the players that you know, yes, we were set yesterday,

570
00:26:04.799 --> 00:26:06.160
<v Speaker 15>but we have a job, we have a mission, we

571
00:26:06.240 --> 00:26:08.880
<v Speaker 15>have a goal, and being in the Big twelve has

572
00:26:09.039 --> 00:26:12.279
<v Speaker 15>put us in a position where now we can compete

573
00:26:12.400 --> 00:26:15.759
<v Speaker 15>across the board. You know, it's different than the Pac twelve.

574
00:26:15.920 --> 00:26:18.720
<v Speaker 15>Not good, not bad, but it's definitely different in the

575
00:26:18.839 --> 00:26:21.720
<v Speaker 15>sense that being in the Pac twelve, everyone knew about

576
00:26:21.759 --> 00:26:24.880
<v Speaker 15>Stanford or knew about UCLA, or when you come into

577
00:26:24.960 --> 00:26:27.720
<v Speaker 15>the Big twelve, the players aren't as familiar with the

578
00:26:27.759 --> 00:26:30.200
<v Speaker 15>programs in there, even though there's been some programs that

579
00:26:30.279 --> 00:26:33.880
<v Speaker 15>have done well over the years. But it's a different

580
00:26:34.000 --> 00:26:36.200
<v Speaker 15>feel altogether, and so we just want to put ourselves

581
00:26:36.200 --> 00:26:37.720
<v Speaker 15>in a position to compete all the time.

582
00:26:38.400 --> 00:26:40.519
<v Speaker 3>You could call me a full coach. I'm fine with that,

583
00:26:40.680 --> 00:26:42.480
<v Speaker 3>but let me throw this at you too. I don't

584
00:26:42.480 --> 00:26:44.640
<v Speaker 3>believe in I don't believe in momentum. I just don't

585
00:26:44.680 --> 00:26:47.160
<v Speaker 3>because every every game is a different game, and you move,

586
00:26:47.319 --> 00:26:48.839
<v Speaker 3>you know, you win one. Every game is a season

587
00:26:48.880 --> 00:26:51.759
<v Speaker 3>if you will. But you can go on runs and

588
00:26:52.000 --> 00:26:56.079
<v Speaker 3>I'll call it more confidence than momentum. So your players

589
00:26:56.160 --> 00:26:59.200
<v Speaker 3>must have realized back in the beginning we have we're

590
00:26:59.200 --> 00:27:02.079
<v Speaker 3>getting confidence, winning a lot of games, getting confidence, and

591
00:27:02.279 --> 00:27:07.079
<v Speaker 3>now regain that confidence and now almost feel not invincible.

592
00:27:07.119 --> 00:27:10.880
<v Speaker 3>But you know what I'm saying, Yes, it's confidence.

593
00:27:11.400 --> 00:27:14.480
<v Speaker 15>Winning is contagious, just like losing. This contagious. And so

594
00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:17.200
<v Speaker 15>for this group of athletes, I knew that we had

595
00:27:17.240 --> 00:27:18.759
<v Speaker 15>to put ourselves. I had to put them in a

596
00:27:18.799 --> 00:27:21.279
<v Speaker 15>position where they could know that they could be winners,

597
00:27:21.319 --> 00:27:24.359
<v Speaker 15>that they could be champions. And it wasn't just idle chatter.

598
00:27:24.799 --> 00:27:26.519
<v Speaker 15>And so you know, when we went off and we

599
00:27:26.599 --> 00:27:29.200
<v Speaker 15>did well in preseason, and then we got into the

600
00:27:29.319 --> 00:27:31.200
<v Speaker 15>beginning the Big twelve play and we went through some

601
00:27:31.319 --> 00:27:34.279
<v Speaker 15>bumps and bruises, it was still an opportunity for us

602
00:27:34.359 --> 00:27:36.680
<v Speaker 15>to say, but we did well there. But now we

603
00:27:36.839 --> 00:27:40.240
<v Speaker 15>have to reset and recharge and get our focus back

604
00:27:40.279 --> 00:27:42.039
<v Speaker 15>and put ourselves in a position where we can then

605
00:27:42.519 --> 00:27:45.160
<v Speaker 15>know that we can compete with anyone. And so when

606
00:27:45.400 --> 00:27:48.279
<v Speaker 15>we are texting in the midst of the NC Doublea's

607
00:27:48.319 --> 00:27:49.400
<v Speaker 15>and saying are you seeing this?

608
00:27:49.519 --> 00:27:50.000
<v Speaker 3>Do you see this?

609
00:27:50.200 --> 00:27:52.880
<v Speaker 15>Or do you learn what's going on? Now? It's something

610
00:27:52.960 --> 00:27:54.839
<v Speaker 15>that they can relate to because we can actually still

611
00:27:54.880 --> 00:27:55.519
<v Speaker 15>go in the gym and.

612
00:27:55.519 --> 00:27:55.920
<v Speaker 16>Work on it.

613
00:27:56.759 --> 00:27:58.559
<v Speaker 3>So from time to time. We had a coach here

614
00:27:58.640 --> 00:28:01.640
<v Speaker 3>as my guest last week, a guy I know, very successful,

615
00:28:02.400 --> 00:28:04.799
<v Speaker 3>and he said he's been coaching close to thirty years

616
00:28:05.200 --> 00:28:07.599
<v Speaker 3>and that team that he coached most recently changed him

617
00:28:08.039 --> 00:28:11.240
<v Speaker 3>become a different type of coach more, I don't know, more,

618
00:28:12.319 --> 00:28:14.440
<v Speaker 3>more of a coach, a player's coach or whatever, because

619
00:28:14.599 --> 00:28:17.319
<v Speaker 3>he's a tough dude. Has this been able to maybe

620
00:28:17.759 --> 00:28:20.680
<v Speaker 3>enlighten you, change you or maybe you didn't need it?

621
00:28:22.599 --> 00:28:25.319
<v Speaker 15>Well, every year is a new year. Every group is different,

622
00:28:25.440 --> 00:28:27.200
<v Speaker 15>and funny that you should ask that. I was having

623
00:28:27.240 --> 00:28:30.599
<v Speaker 15>a meeting with a player earlier today and I asked,

624
00:28:30.640 --> 00:28:33.200
<v Speaker 15>I said, essentially, am I hard to play for? Or

625
00:28:33.559 --> 00:28:36.160
<v Speaker 15>was Dave harder to play for? And she was like,

626
00:28:36.400 --> 00:28:39.599
<v Speaker 15>you are? And I was like why you know? I'm like, oh,

627
00:28:39.680 --> 00:28:41.319
<v Speaker 15>I'm the cool coach. I'm the one that you know

628
00:28:41.960 --> 00:28:45.079
<v Speaker 15>does all these different things. And everyone's a little bit different,

629
00:28:45.119 --> 00:28:47.519
<v Speaker 15>and part of it is based on the athletes that

630
00:28:47.680 --> 00:28:50.720
<v Speaker 15>you bring in sure, and them understanding who you are

631
00:28:50.759 --> 00:28:53.240
<v Speaker 15>as a person. I do know that I am the

632
00:28:53.319 --> 00:28:55.920
<v Speaker 15>type of person that will ask a lot of questions,

633
00:28:56.039 --> 00:29:00.759
<v Speaker 15>and my expectations never changed, nor did Dave's expect But

634
00:29:00.880 --> 00:29:03.599
<v Speaker 15>it's something different when it comes from someone that looks

635
00:29:03.720 --> 00:29:06.279
<v Speaker 15>like you versus that doesn't look like you. I don't

636
00:29:06.279 --> 00:29:09.119
<v Speaker 15>know that that's good nor bad. I just know it's different.

637
00:29:09.799 --> 00:29:12.759
<v Speaker 3>Well too too, Since you brought in these winners, right,

638
00:29:13.079 --> 00:29:15.759
<v Speaker 3>you brought in these winners, they probably know the expectations.

639
00:29:16.440 --> 00:29:18.880
<v Speaker 3>They don't like to lose, they don't like failure, So

640
00:29:19.160 --> 00:29:21.400
<v Speaker 3>your system probably fits in with theirs.

641
00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:24.000
<v Speaker 15>Yes, I would agree with that one.

642
00:29:24.920 --> 00:29:27.599
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, And how do you facilitate that? Because if winners win,

643
00:29:28.039 --> 00:29:29.440
<v Speaker 3>how do you push them to win more?

644
00:29:30.799 --> 00:29:33.119
<v Speaker 15>You continue to challenge them. You put a different obstacle

645
00:29:33.160 --> 00:29:36.240
<v Speaker 15>in front of them. That's good, But okay, why would you?

646
00:29:36.359 --> 00:29:38.000
<v Speaker 15>Why did you do that? So I ask a lot

647
00:29:38.039 --> 00:29:38.559
<v Speaker 15>of questions.

648
00:29:38.640 --> 00:29:39.759
<v Speaker 2>What were you trying to do?

649
00:29:40.359 --> 00:29:43.799
<v Speaker 15>Was that your entire hand? Were you really trying to

650
00:29:43.839 --> 00:29:45.359
<v Speaker 15>serve there? Did you think that was a good idea?

651
00:29:45.400 --> 00:29:46.160
<v Speaker 14>Why is that going on?

652
00:29:46.640 --> 00:29:49.200
<v Speaker 15>And so my goal is to always challenge and stimulate

653
00:29:49.319 --> 00:29:51.960
<v Speaker 15>their brain to keep them on their toes. But then

654
00:29:52.039 --> 00:29:54.359
<v Speaker 15>in the same breath, sit back and say, Okay, tell

655
00:29:54.440 --> 00:29:56.480
<v Speaker 15>me why you did that, so that I can hear

656
00:29:56.559 --> 00:29:58.039
<v Speaker 15>what they have to say, because at the end of

657
00:29:58.079 --> 00:29:59.960
<v Speaker 15>the day, the athlete has to be able to clear

658
00:30:00.559 --> 00:30:03.240
<v Speaker 15>their mind and tell you what they're thinking, otherwise they're

659
00:30:03.240 --> 00:30:04.720
<v Speaker 15>going to harbor that for a long time.

660
00:30:05.720 --> 00:30:07.720
<v Speaker 5>One of those winags you brought in was Carly Ciscenaro

661
00:30:07.839 --> 00:30:09.759
<v Speaker 5>is obviously GATORA Player of the Year coming out of

662
00:30:09.839 --> 00:30:12.599
<v Speaker 5>high school, and early on in the season you said,

663
00:30:12.680 --> 00:30:15.119
<v Speaker 5>she's really good at swinging down the line. How what

664
00:30:15.279 --> 00:30:17.119
<v Speaker 5>else have you seen improve in her game as the

665
00:30:17.160 --> 00:30:20.319
<v Speaker 5>season progressed And is she someone that Tucson can look

666
00:30:20.359 --> 00:30:21.920
<v Speaker 5>to when they think of Arizona volleyball.

667
00:30:23.079 --> 00:30:25.720
<v Speaker 15>Absolutely, you know, for Carly, she was one of the

668
00:30:25.839 --> 00:30:28.720
<v Speaker 15>things with players who have great vision as she does,

669
00:30:29.279 --> 00:30:31.559
<v Speaker 15>you think to go around the block, and that works

670
00:30:31.880 --> 00:30:34.160
<v Speaker 15>very well in club, but when you get to college,

671
00:30:34.240 --> 00:30:35.680
<v Speaker 15>they want you to go around the block so you

672
00:30:35.720 --> 00:30:38.200
<v Speaker 15>can go right to their defender. And so what Carly

673
00:30:38.680 --> 00:30:41.920
<v Speaker 15>has learned over the season is how to attack the

674
00:30:42.000 --> 00:30:44.799
<v Speaker 15>block and not be afraid to go through the block.

675
00:30:44.920 --> 00:30:45.920
<v Speaker 15>You know, you got to go up there and you

676
00:30:46.039 --> 00:30:47.960
<v Speaker 15>have to hit harder. You have to if you go

677
00:30:48.039 --> 00:30:50.000
<v Speaker 15>around it. That's what they want you to do. So

678
00:30:50.519 --> 00:30:54.039
<v Speaker 15>that is something that doesn't always bring success right off

679
00:30:54.119 --> 00:30:57.160
<v Speaker 15>the bat. And so teaching her that it's okay, you

680
00:30:57.319 --> 00:30:59.920
<v Speaker 15>still pick the right line, it's gonna work, stick with it,

681
00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:02.640
<v Speaker 15>and that's what's happening, and now the game has become

682
00:31:02.720 --> 00:31:03.920
<v Speaker 15>that much more easy to her.

683
00:31:04.720 --> 00:31:07.279
<v Speaker 3>Sorry to spoil this great conversation, but let me bring

684
00:31:07.480 --> 00:31:11.319
<v Speaker 3>bring up an il. Uh. Has it affected you? I mean,

685
00:31:11.319 --> 00:31:13.519
<v Speaker 3>it's got to affect like the sports like you and

686
00:31:13.599 --> 00:31:15.480
<v Speaker 3>softball and all that, because you guys are trying to

687
00:31:15.599 --> 00:31:19.480
<v Speaker 3>do your job at a great pace, but it's tough

688
00:31:19.559 --> 00:31:21.240
<v Speaker 3>to partly find the numbers or money.

689
00:31:22.480 --> 00:31:25.200
<v Speaker 15>You know. It's I have a love hate relationship with it,

690
00:31:25.319 --> 00:31:28.279
<v Speaker 15>for sure. I love the fact that the athletes get

691
00:31:28.319 --> 00:31:31.119
<v Speaker 15>a chance to, you know, capitalize on who they are

692
00:31:31.160 --> 00:31:33.759
<v Speaker 15>and what they bring to the table. But the reality

693
00:31:33.880 --> 00:31:36.200
<v Speaker 15>is not everyone gets the opportunity to capitalize on it.

694
00:31:36.319 --> 00:31:39.200
<v Speaker 15>So there's going to always be someone left out for

695
00:31:39.359 --> 00:31:42.119
<v Speaker 15>whatever the reason is. You know, be it they don't

696
00:31:42.119 --> 00:31:44.640
<v Speaker 15>play as much. Be it, they're not on social media.

697
00:31:44.799 --> 00:31:45.279
<v Speaker 2>Be it, there.

698
00:31:45.519 --> 00:31:48.279
<v Speaker 15>You know, they don't have that look that someone's looking for,

699
00:31:48.880 --> 00:31:52.079
<v Speaker 15>and so you know, it does boil down to the money.

700
00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:54.960
<v Speaker 15>You know, there's a lot of athletes in different conferences

701
00:31:55.480 --> 00:31:57.519
<v Speaker 15>that we won't even get a shot at because we

702
00:31:57.599 --> 00:31:59.880
<v Speaker 15>don't have the funds to be able to say, hey,

703
00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:02.119
<v Speaker 15>look at us, even though we have a great product,

704
00:32:02.160 --> 00:32:04.680
<v Speaker 15>we have a great city to have a great community,

705
00:32:05.160 --> 00:32:07.480
<v Speaker 15>and so it is frustrating. But at the end of

706
00:32:07.519 --> 00:32:09.839
<v Speaker 15>the day, I want athletes to be here because they

707
00:32:09.920 --> 00:32:11.960
<v Speaker 15>want to play and they want to compete, and then

708
00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:15.119
<v Speaker 15>we'll find ways to, you know, sprinkle some things their

709
00:32:15.160 --> 00:32:17.440
<v Speaker 15>way should that come available. But I don't want that

710
00:32:17.519 --> 00:32:19.559
<v Speaker 15>to be the first question out of an athlete's mouth.

711
00:32:20.160 --> 00:32:23.279
<v Speaker 15>And now coming out of high school, that's the third question,

712
00:32:23.559 --> 00:32:24.400
<v Speaker 15>how much money.

713
00:32:24.200 --> 00:32:24.559
<v Speaker 2>Can I make?

714
00:32:24.599 --> 00:32:26.359
<v Speaker 15>And I'm like, well, you haven't done anything yet, why are.

715
00:32:26.279 --> 00:32:27.160
<v Speaker 7>You ask me how much money?

716
00:32:28.440 --> 00:32:28.599
<v Speaker 11>You know?

717
00:32:28.680 --> 00:32:30.880
<v Speaker 15>And so that that puts a bad taste in my.

718
00:32:30.920 --> 00:32:33.640
<v Speaker 3>Mouth when I hear that you coaches are under the gun.

719
00:32:33.759 --> 00:32:35.480
<v Speaker 3>It's just I don't know if i'd want to be one,

720
00:32:35.640 --> 00:32:38.160
<v Speaker 3>because it's it's a lot of facilitating in a lot

721
00:32:38.200 --> 00:32:39.160
<v Speaker 3>of different directions.

722
00:32:40.279 --> 00:32:42.759
<v Speaker 15>Well, you know, we have great people here, helping to

723
00:32:42.880 --> 00:32:46.599
<v Speaker 15>raise money and working within our athletic department, which I appreciate,

724
00:32:46.720 --> 00:32:48.440
<v Speaker 15>and you know, you just kind of go back to

725
00:32:48.519 --> 00:32:50.279
<v Speaker 15>them and say, hey, we need this and can we

726
00:32:50.400 --> 00:32:53.640
<v Speaker 15>do this? And it's about forming great relationships, which is why.

727
00:32:53.759 --> 00:32:55.680
<v Speaker 15>You know, the more fans I can get in the stands,

728
00:32:56.160 --> 00:32:57.920
<v Speaker 15>the more that you know, the right people will be

729
00:32:58.000 --> 00:32:59.839
<v Speaker 15>there to say, hey, we want to help your program out,

730
00:32:59.880 --> 00:33:02.799
<v Speaker 15>because it is still about the student athlete at the

731
00:33:02.920 --> 00:33:04.640
<v Speaker 15>end of the day, and then you have a good

732
00:33:04.680 --> 00:33:07.759
<v Speaker 15>relationship with them, you can navigate that relationship.

733
00:33:07.240 --> 00:33:07.839
<v Speaker 2>A little bit more.

734
00:33:08.039 --> 00:33:11.119
<v Speaker 3>Okay, so how many how many attendees do you hope

735
00:33:11.359 --> 00:33:13.720
<v Speaker 3>for tomorrow? And how can they get to the game

736
00:33:14.119 --> 00:33:14.839
<v Speaker 3>and tickets and all that.

737
00:33:15.000 --> 00:33:17.880
<v Speaker 15>My goal is to have four thousand fans tomorrow, and

738
00:33:17.960 --> 00:33:20.359
<v Speaker 15>that is an ambitious goal of mine. But I believe

739
00:33:20.440 --> 00:33:22.680
<v Speaker 15>in aiming big and going hard and don't go at all.

740
00:33:23.839 --> 00:33:26.160
<v Speaker 15>And the game is at six o'clock and they can

741
00:33:26.200 --> 00:33:28.319
<v Speaker 15>get tickets at by two year old six two one

742
00:33:28.440 --> 00:33:32.200
<v Speaker 15>cat is supporting the athletes. No, we've done our part.

743
00:33:32.319 --> 00:33:33.039
<v Speaker 2>Now we need fans.

760

820
00:36:58.480 --> 00:37:02.159
<v Speaker 3>or solutions. I saw over the weekend. You know, Ballo's

821
00:37:02.199 --> 00:37:04.400
<v Speaker 3>gone and they used him so much and blah blah blah.

822
00:37:04.599 --> 00:37:06.440
<v Speaker 3>Ball was ballow. He was not gonna help this group.

823
00:37:06.639 --> 00:37:09.440
<v Speaker 3>It just wasn't. He still has swash. He's getting a

824
00:37:09.559 --> 00:37:12.599
<v Speaker 3>lot of beef out of Indiana. They're not any good too.

825
00:37:13.440 --> 00:37:13.559
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

826
00:37:14.159 --> 00:37:16.760
<v Speaker 3>He's getting paid one point reported at one point one

827
00:37:16.800 --> 00:37:19.719
<v Speaker 3>point three. Everyone's not gonna pay both at one point two.

828
00:37:19.880 --> 00:37:22.639
<v Speaker 6>Come on, no, And you know they spent over seven

829
00:37:22.760 --> 00:37:28.280
<v Speaker 6>million dollars in n l and and subpar so well,

830
00:37:28.320 --> 00:37:30.239
<v Speaker 6>what what was the solution they be looking for a

831
00:37:30.320 --> 00:37:32.280
<v Speaker 6>new coach with their oh very much.

832
00:37:32.360 --> 00:37:32.400
<v Speaker 2>So.

833
00:37:32.519 --> 00:37:35.519
<v Speaker 6>You know, Woodson's a good I think developer and a

834
00:37:35.599 --> 00:37:37.960
<v Speaker 6>good exces and OSE guy, but he's not a college

835
00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:41.000
<v Speaker 6>guy and that was clear from the beginning in terms

836
00:37:41.039 --> 00:37:41.440
<v Speaker 6>of BOLLO.

837
00:37:41.760 --> 00:37:42.920
<v Speaker 3>You look at this team right now.

838
00:37:43.760 --> 00:37:47.039
<v Speaker 6>Okay, remember that Caleb Tarzouski team that lost in the

839
00:37:47.079 --> 00:37:50.920
<v Speaker 6>tournament to which DA State. Yeah for sure, Okay, if

840
00:37:50.960 --> 00:37:53.840
<v Speaker 6>you took Tarzuski off that team on that team pretty

841
00:37:53.880 --> 00:37:56.079
<v Speaker 6>much the same team. Same with Ballow. He's not going

842
00:37:56.159 --> 00:37:58.719
<v Speaker 6>to make an offensive difference as much. It's not going

843
00:37:58.800 --> 00:37:59.719
<v Speaker 6>to fix your issues.

844
00:37:59.760 --> 00:38:01.480
<v Speaker 3>And he was still a liability. I mean, come on,

845
00:38:01.840 --> 00:38:04.679
<v Speaker 3>just remember go back to last year at the same time. Yeah,

846
00:38:04.920 --> 00:38:08.519
<v Speaker 3>he's still the same dude. Yeah, there's no solution. They

847
00:38:08.599 --> 00:38:10.840
<v Speaker 3>just got to play better, as simple as that. But

848
00:38:10.920 --> 00:38:13.199
<v Speaker 3>it's very very convoluted. I tell you.

849
00:38:13.280 --> 00:38:15.440
<v Speaker 6>The one thing that you know, we kind of talked

850
00:38:15.440 --> 00:38:18.440
<v Speaker 6>about in terms of what's missing from last year in

851
00:38:18.559 --> 00:38:21.639
<v Speaker 6>terms of the facilitating Kylon Boswall got a lot of

852
00:38:21.679 --> 00:38:23.280
<v Speaker 6>grief here at Arizona, and I get it. You know,

853
00:38:23.559 --> 00:38:25.440
<v Speaker 6>it's probably time for him to move on, right But

854
00:38:25.519 --> 00:38:28.440
<v Speaker 6>he's a true point guard. And then your other facilitator

855
00:38:28.599 --> 00:38:29.400
<v Speaker 6>was Paula.

856
00:38:29.159 --> 00:38:30.679
<v Speaker 3>Larson who's in the NBA.

857
00:38:31.320 --> 00:38:34.079
<v Speaker 6>So yeah, two guys that were facilitating and making the

858
00:38:34.119 --> 00:38:36.079
<v Speaker 6>offense click giving up their game.

859
00:38:36.519 --> 00:38:38.559
<v Speaker 3>You don't have that right now. If you're a coach,

860
00:38:38.679 --> 00:38:41.320
<v Speaker 3>if you're a coach, if you're Cronin or whomever, what

861
00:38:41.400 --> 00:38:43.440
<v Speaker 3>are you going to try to do against Arizona? What's

862
00:38:43.440 --> 00:38:46.360
<v Speaker 3>the number one thing? Yees? Now slow them down in

863
00:38:46.360 --> 00:38:49.599
<v Speaker 3>a f court because Luke couldn't do it, Sean couldn't

864
00:38:49.639 --> 00:38:51.719
<v Speaker 3>do it. Now time he can't do it. They don't

865
00:38:51.760 --> 00:38:54.000
<v Speaker 3>know how to score unless they have Salim or something

866
00:38:54.079 --> 00:38:57.480
<v Speaker 3>like that. And that's you're talking one off signs you

867
00:38:57.960 --> 00:39:00.000
<v Speaker 3>guys who can shoot, or a guy who can shoot

868
00:39:00.880 --> 00:39:05.920
<v Speaker 3>Deloro or he needs to step up. They need a

869
00:39:05.920 --> 00:39:08.440
<v Speaker 3>shooter to step up. And if he's if that's the

870
00:39:08.559 --> 00:39:10.920
<v Speaker 3>only thing he does, that's the thing he needs to do.

871
00:39:11.400 --> 00:39:14.760
<v Speaker 3>Because the half court game since nineteen eighty five eighty

872
00:39:14.880 --> 00:39:19.760
<v Speaker 3>six has always given Arizona tough I want to say

873
00:39:19.760 --> 00:39:22.000
<v Speaker 3>cuss word, but I can't tough situations.

874
00:39:22.719 --> 00:39:24.239
<v Speaker 6>Well, it's because you know, you look at the game

875
00:39:24.280 --> 00:39:26.719
<v Speaker 6>in college basketball and you see that in the NBA

876
00:39:27.239 --> 00:39:30.039
<v Speaker 6>shooting is premier. How many times do you see an

877
00:39:30.079 --> 00:39:32.440
<v Speaker 6>NBA player that can just shoot a three pointer and

878
00:39:32.480 --> 00:39:34.920
<v Speaker 6>play a little bit of defense get paid a ton

879
00:39:35.000 --> 00:39:37.880
<v Speaker 6>of money because not everybody can do it. You don't

880
00:39:37.920 --> 00:39:40.800
<v Speaker 6>have those skill sets just going around shooting, and the

881
00:39:40.920 --> 00:39:44.000
<v Speaker 6>development of shooting isn't where it used to be twenty

882
00:39:44.039 --> 00:39:44.760
<v Speaker 6>plus years ago.

883
00:39:46.320 --> 00:39:49.519
<v Speaker 3>Solution, Senor, I don't have any right now. There's not

884
00:39:49.760 --> 00:39:51.760
<v Speaker 3>I mean there's not. We talked about that before the

885
00:39:51.960 --> 00:39:55.400
<v Speaker 3>show began. There's so many, so many issues. Even if

886
00:39:55.440 --> 00:39:59.880
<v Speaker 3>they're little, they compound into a lot. It's across the board. Yeah, yeah,

887
00:40:00.079 --> 00:40:03.679
<v Speaker 3>And you're using your word consistency. You know, there's head games.

888
00:40:03.800 --> 00:40:06.920
<v Speaker 3>Now are they gonna stay stay afloat? I mean he

889
00:40:07.000 --> 00:40:10.119
<v Speaker 3>talked about that they can't disband or they can't disengage.

890
00:40:10.639 --> 00:40:13.280
<v Speaker 3>But but if you're not winning and you're in Arizona,

891
00:40:13.360 --> 00:40:15.239
<v Speaker 3>guess what you start to do? You start to thinking

892
00:40:15.320 --> 00:40:19.320
<v Speaker 3>second guess. So we got to call Hello, you're on

893
00:40:19.360 --> 00:40:20.360
<v Speaker 3>the airline the ball. Who's this?

894
00:40:21.440 --> 00:40:22.559
<v Speaker 2>Hey button? Rick?

895
00:40:22.800 --> 00:40:25.000
<v Speaker 3>Hey? Rick? Oh you're gonna tell me what? You're gonna

896
00:40:25.000 --> 00:40:25.920
<v Speaker 3>tell me something? Saturday?

897
00:40:27.119 --> 00:40:29.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Well, I.

898
00:40:29.159 --> 00:40:31.960
<v Speaker 16>Got to camp out and watch a lot of the

899
00:40:32.079 --> 00:40:36.159
<v Speaker 16>Big East, not the Big East excies me sec the

900
00:40:36.239 --> 00:40:40.559
<v Speaker 16>Big Ten, so Bow follow and Boswell play as a

901
00:40:40.679 --> 00:40:45.440
<v Speaker 16>matter of fact, But two things I noticed about Arizona,

902
00:40:46.719 --> 00:40:50.119
<v Speaker 16>even auburnon what a team. And they get some players,

903
00:40:50.960 --> 00:40:56.440
<v Speaker 16>but even in half court, they are constantly moving at

904
00:40:56.599 --> 00:41:00.880
<v Speaker 16>three quarter to full speed. And it may not look

905
00:41:01.079 --> 00:41:06.519
<v Speaker 16>like it, but they are so synchronized. And Arizona's biggest

906
00:41:06.599 --> 00:41:10.679
<v Speaker 16>fault it slows down. It gets on a move. You know,

907
00:41:10.840 --> 00:41:15.679
<v Speaker 16>the second ten minutes of the first half and then

908
00:41:15.719 --> 00:41:19.760
<v Speaker 16>the first ten minutes of the second half, they were

909
00:41:19.880 --> 00:41:24.480
<v Speaker 16>moving quick, not just fast, but quick around. There's even

910
00:41:24.639 --> 00:41:28.880
<v Speaker 16>in the half court game, which translates to.

911
00:41:30.559 --> 00:41:33.800
<v Speaker 7>Better full court pressure, it translates to better.

912
00:41:34.159 --> 00:41:37.719
<v Speaker 16>Fast break opportunities. They were just faster. Then all of

913
00:41:37.760 --> 00:41:41.760
<v Speaker 16>a sudden, they start playing that prevent defense that prevents

914
00:41:41.800 --> 00:41:46.440
<v Speaker 16>them from winning, and they start slowing down. And that's

915
00:41:46.480 --> 00:41:50.800
<v Speaker 16>when UCLA got a second brass and it choked us off.

916
00:41:51.400 --> 00:41:55.119
<v Speaker 16>And I think coach is probably seeing the same thing.

917
00:41:55.280 --> 00:41:58.519
<v Speaker 16>He's smarter than I am, for sure, but I think

918
00:41:58.559 --> 00:42:01.760
<v Speaker 16>you're going to see these guys moved much quicker in

919
00:42:01.840 --> 00:42:05.960
<v Speaker 16>the half court and allow them to transition back and forth.

920
00:42:06.000 --> 00:42:09.760
<v Speaker 2>Even on defense. And that's what I noticed about.

921
00:42:09.519 --> 00:42:13.800
<v Speaker 16>The SEC and the ACC and even in Big ten

922
00:42:14.639 --> 00:42:16.880
<v Speaker 16>they move quicker at the half court game.

923
00:42:17.360 --> 00:42:19.480
<v Speaker 3>So one of the things that Tommy said, I think

924
00:42:19.480 --> 00:42:22.079
<v Speaker 3>it's the presh Converson Thursday and were you there Thursday. Well,

925
00:42:22.119 --> 00:42:24.880
<v Speaker 3>we talked about Caleb specifically and what he needed because

926
00:42:24.920 --> 00:42:26.920
<v Speaker 3>Bruce asked the question, and we'll have Bruce here the

927
00:42:26.960 --> 00:42:29.559
<v Speaker 3>next hour about what he needed to do. Move without

928
00:42:29.599 --> 00:42:31.920
<v Speaker 3>the ball better, they'll be more engaged on the other

929
00:42:32.039 --> 00:42:35.519
<v Speaker 3>side of the ball. And offensively, Grick, if you noticed this,

930
00:42:35.880 --> 00:42:39.079
<v Speaker 3>he doesn't move without the ball. He stands there. He's

931
00:42:39.079 --> 00:42:41.840
<v Speaker 3>a sit and wait for the ball guy or calls

932
00:42:41.880 --> 00:42:44.400
<v Speaker 3>for it. Come on, good players don't do that well.

933
00:42:44.760 --> 00:42:47.199
<v Speaker 6>And that's completely opposite of what they were trying to

934
00:42:47.239 --> 00:42:49.800
<v Speaker 6>have him do, which was score without the basketball, meaning

935
00:42:50.199 --> 00:42:53.119
<v Speaker 6>moving around screens, moving around the court, making your guy

936
00:42:53.440 --> 00:42:55.000
<v Speaker 6>work for it, and then all of a sudden, you

937
00:42:55.039 --> 00:42:57.679
<v Speaker 6>get it off of a screen, you hit the elbow jumper,

938
00:42:57.719 --> 00:42:58.199
<v Speaker 6>and you're there.

939
00:42:58.800 --> 00:42:59.920
<v Speaker 3>You're just seeing them stand.

940
00:42:59.760 --> 00:43:02.440
<v Speaker 7>At the elbow and then hey, yeah, but he'd been.

941
00:43:02.440 --> 00:43:04.800
<v Speaker 16>Doing that much better in the second ten minutes of

942
00:43:04.880 --> 00:43:07.360
<v Speaker 16>the first half and the first ten minutes.

943
00:43:07.119 --> 00:43:07.639
<v Speaker 2>Of the second.

944
00:43:07.719 --> 00:43:09.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but it's got to be consistent.

945
00:43:09.679 --> 00:43:10.320
<v Speaker 2>But it's got it.

946
00:43:10.480 --> 00:43:13.599
<v Speaker 16>You're right, that's the problem that they're losing that consistency.

947
00:43:14.039 --> 00:43:17.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's just it's just you. You've been a long

948
00:43:17.159 --> 00:43:20.239
<v Speaker 3>time fan, Rick, I know that. How frustrating is it

949
00:43:20.320 --> 00:43:22.880
<v Speaker 3>because stuff like this and I've covered this team a

950
00:43:23.000 --> 00:43:26.199
<v Speaker 3>long time, thirty some years now. Uh, this is the

951
00:43:26.440 --> 00:43:30.440
<v Speaker 3>one of the more perplexing teams I've I've watched over

952
00:43:30.760 --> 00:43:34.360
<v Speaker 3>the years because I've seen Sean's teams kind of kind

953
00:43:34.400 --> 00:43:37.239
<v Speaker 3>of disengage and loots maybe at the end at the

954
00:43:37.360 --> 00:43:39.840
<v Speaker 3>end of his career. But this is just bizarre because

955
00:43:39.840 --> 00:43:42.119
<v Speaker 3>you think they have enough talent. I think they do.

956
00:43:42.360 --> 00:43:44.840
<v Speaker 3>Maybe I'm wrong, Well.

957
00:43:44.760 --> 00:43:47.480
<v Speaker 16>They have enough talent, and they just I think they

958
00:43:47.840 --> 00:43:50.840
<v Speaker 16>probably part of that problem is in their heads they

959
00:43:50.920 --> 00:43:53.039
<v Speaker 16>think they're better than what they're actually producing.

960
00:43:53.239 --> 00:43:58.400
<v Speaker 3>Well, the whole is always going through that they're not

961
00:43:58.440 --> 00:43:59.039
<v Speaker 3>as good as they.

962
00:43:59.000 --> 00:44:02.639
<v Speaker 16>Think they are, right, and I think, but they get

963
00:44:02.719 --> 00:44:04.679
<v Speaker 16>so much hype from the media, they get so much

964
00:44:04.760 --> 00:44:07.800
<v Speaker 16>hype from the national press. But a great player, Caleb's

965
00:44:08.280 --> 00:44:11.639
<v Speaker 16>Caleb is a great example, comes here from North Carolina.

966
00:44:11.840 --> 00:44:15.239
<v Speaker 16>He's like he's the next second coming, and you know,

967
00:44:16.280 --> 00:44:19.400
<v Speaker 16>and these are still kids, and you can't feed them

968
00:44:19.519 --> 00:44:22.000
<v Speaker 16>all this you know, prime rib and then all of

969
00:44:22.039 --> 00:44:25.639
<v Speaker 16>a sudden, when they're getting chicken and they're getting you know,

970
00:44:25.840 --> 00:44:29.519
<v Speaker 16>raw hamburger, they're not used to it. And guess what, folks,

971
00:44:30.000 --> 00:44:32.840
<v Speaker 16>the world is made of chicken and raw hamburger. And

972
00:44:33.239 --> 00:44:35.880
<v Speaker 16>that's what you better work hard so that you could

973
00:44:35.960 --> 00:44:36.719
<v Speaker 16>earn the primary.

974
00:44:36.880 --> 00:44:40.000
<v Speaker 3>Well, and there's your problem. There's another problem. You earn

975
00:44:40.079 --> 00:44:42.239
<v Speaker 3>what you get. Well, these guys are already getting paid

976
00:44:42.400 --> 00:44:45.280
<v Speaker 3>with what they're could you imagine, Rick, You're giving kids

977
00:44:45.360 --> 00:44:47.800
<v Speaker 3>whatever you get you whatever, you give the three, two

978
00:44:47.840 --> 00:44:50.719
<v Speaker 3>hundred and fifty, whatever the numbers five fifty, and then

979
00:44:50.840 --> 00:44:52.000
<v Speaker 3>this is what you're getting for it.

980
00:44:54.039 --> 00:44:57.559
<v Speaker 16>Well, that's I mean, that's the system that we all

981
00:44:57.679 --> 00:45:00.360
<v Speaker 16>live in now. I mean, as far as we don't

982
00:45:00.400 --> 00:45:02.280
<v Speaker 16>have amateur sports anymore.

983
00:45:02.199 --> 00:45:04.079
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to shop at big lots, That's all I know.

984
00:45:05.480 --> 00:45:08.280
<v Speaker 16>And you know what, this isn't just at Arizona.

985
00:45:08.559 --> 00:45:09.760
<v Speaker 2>This is across the cutry.

986
00:45:09.800 --> 00:45:10.679
<v Speaker 3>No, you're right, you're right.

987
00:45:11.760 --> 00:45:14.320
<v Speaker 2>You've got kids getting paid a lot more than their worse.

988
00:45:15.000 --> 00:45:16.280
<v Speaker 2>And again, their.

989
00:45:16.159 --> 00:45:19.000
<v Speaker 16>Heads are getting swollen, they're walking around, they're wearing roll

990
00:45:19.079 --> 00:45:21.519
<v Speaker 16>lectures and they should be wearing time X.

991
00:45:21.920 --> 00:45:24.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Well we'll see if they keep on ticking after this.

992
00:45:25.079 --> 00:45:29.159
<v Speaker 3>Thanks correct for the r Yeah no, I think there's

993
00:45:29.159 --> 00:45:31.519
<v Speaker 3>a lot of issues and it's not exclusive to Arizona.

994
00:45:32.039 --> 00:45:34.639
<v Speaker 6>We know, and you know, it's just not college sports.

995
00:45:34.719 --> 00:45:37.000
<v Speaker 6>He's either you see it at the high school level.

996
00:45:37.079 --> 00:45:41.199
<v Speaker 6>You see at AU level. That's really how college athletes

997
00:45:41.239 --> 00:45:44.440
<v Speaker 6>and the mindset is coming from high school all the

998
00:45:44.440 --> 00:45:47.360
<v Speaker 6>way up to college. You know, my whole entire what

999
00:45:47.519 --> 00:45:50.000
<v Speaker 6>they call camp. There group of people that's around them.

1000
00:45:50.480 --> 00:45:51.960
<v Speaker 6>Tell me I'm the best thing ever. I don't have

1001
00:45:52.000 --> 00:45:55.039
<v Speaker 6>to listen to my coach. Well, you know what, sometimes

1002
00:45:55.079 --> 00:45:58.119
<v Speaker 6>your coach is right around the time.

1003
00:45:58.760 --> 00:46:01.000
<v Speaker 3>That's been I'm doing that for a while now. I've

1004
00:46:01.039 --> 00:46:02.800
<v Speaker 3>been following it. For the worst thing that I did

1005
00:46:02.960 --> 00:46:05.719
<v Speaker 3>was recruiting. I hated doing that because even now everyone's

1006
00:46:05.840 --> 00:46:08.519
<v Speaker 3>all you're talking about the UA football program. They lose

1007
00:46:08.559 --> 00:46:10.920
<v Speaker 3>thirty right now, they're getting people in and people coming

1008
00:46:11.000 --> 00:46:14.199
<v Speaker 3>from all over Texas and YadA, YadA. Okay, what does

1009
00:46:14.239 --> 00:46:16.039
<v Speaker 3>that mean? Okay? One, they have to be good when

1010
00:46:16.039 --> 00:46:18.280
<v Speaker 3>they get here and how long are they going to stay?

1011
00:46:18.880 --> 00:46:20.599
<v Speaker 3>So why would you why would you get you know,

1012
00:46:20.760 --> 00:46:22.599
<v Speaker 3>why would you get all giddy over a guy who

1013
00:46:22.679 --> 00:46:24.440
<v Speaker 3>may or may not show up, and if he does

1014
00:46:24.480 --> 00:46:25.960
<v Speaker 3>show up, he may not be that good.

1015
00:46:26.079 --> 00:46:29.280
<v Speaker 6>Well, look at Colorado in the last year, two years,

1016
00:46:29.639 --> 00:46:31.800
<v Speaker 6>they've had ninety five transfers in then out of the

1017
00:46:31.840 --> 00:46:34.360
<v Speaker 6>program m. I think it was the year before this

1018
00:46:34.480 --> 00:46:37.119
<v Speaker 6>one they had ninety five total in one season, and

1019
00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:41.119
<v Speaker 6>about twenty of those transferred in for spring football. Went

1020
00:46:41.239 --> 00:46:43.880
<v Speaker 6>through the workouts and what saw what Dion was about

1021
00:46:43.960 --> 00:46:46.559
<v Speaker 6>and said, you know what, No, I'm good, I'll transfer out.

1022
00:46:46.760 --> 00:46:49.440
<v Speaker 6>Arizona got one of those, and Taylor Upshaw he came

1023
00:46:49.480 --> 00:46:53.559
<v Speaker 6>to Arizona after spending one semester at Colorado for spring football.

1024
00:46:54.239 --> 00:46:55.880
<v Speaker 6>And then all of a sudden, you know, you have

1025
00:46:56.000 --> 00:46:58.199
<v Speaker 6>ninety five transfers and you're trying to gel ninety five

1026
00:46:58.239 --> 00:47:00.360
<v Speaker 6>different players. It doesn't work all the time.

1027
00:47:01.679 --> 00:47:06.679
<v Speaker 3>And who's the kid who's the typhenated name? And you

1028
00:47:06.760 --> 00:47:08.639
<v Speaker 3>thought another one, and you thought you got a very

1029
00:47:08.679 --> 00:47:10.760
<v Speaker 3>good one, very good one. May you saw me in

1030
00:47:10.760 --> 00:47:12.719
<v Speaker 3>the spring game over there. He had a pretty decent

1031
00:47:13.039 --> 00:47:15.880
<v Speaker 3>year last year. Decent, it is good word, somewhat decent.

1032
00:47:16.559 --> 00:47:19.199
<v Speaker 6>What happened this year disappeared, didn't even play the last

1033
00:47:19.719 --> 00:47:20.280
<v Speaker 6>five games.

1034
00:47:20.440 --> 00:47:22.639
<v Speaker 3>But my point is. That's why I don't like recruiting,

1035
00:47:22.679 --> 00:47:24.559
<v Speaker 3>because you can say, well, this guy, oh, he's set you.

1036
00:47:24.719 --> 00:47:27.280
<v Speaker 3>It's like with Daity, he's such a good guy, he's

1037
00:47:27.280 --> 00:47:28.840
<v Speaker 3>such a good he bought me dinner, and then a

1038
00:47:28.880 --> 00:47:30.679
<v Speaker 3>week later he's he's hating you or something. You know

1039
00:47:30.719 --> 00:47:33.280
<v Speaker 3>what I'm saying to the extreme of he's a good player,

1040
00:47:33.480 --> 00:47:34.840
<v Speaker 3>and then all of a sudden he gets on he

1041
00:47:34.960 --> 00:47:37.960
<v Speaker 3>can't play, he can't play, but we're giving him this money.

1042
00:47:38.840 --> 00:47:41.480
<v Speaker 3>It doesn't to me. To me, it's silly. Yeah, And

1043
00:47:41.559 --> 00:47:46.000
<v Speaker 3>you know, you do these recruiting evaluations. You know you're

1044
00:47:46.039 --> 00:47:47.800
<v Speaker 3>the Yeah, you're the problem. You're the problem.

1045
00:47:47.840 --> 00:47:50.079
<v Speaker 6>I'm not I'm not the problem. But we go through

1046
00:47:50.079 --> 00:47:53.880
<v Speaker 6>it in terms of you're evaluating these recruits. Oh, you

1047
00:47:53.960 --> 00:47:55.679
<v Speaker 6>know what, they have this good skill set, they need

1048
00:47:55.760 --> 00:47:57.519
<v Speaker 6>to work on this and this and this, and all

1049
00:47:57.519 --> 00:47:59.679
<v Speaker 6>of a sudden they're not even there come day one.

1050
00:48:00.159 --> 00:48:02.000
<v Speaker 6>So you did all that work of all these articles

1051
00:48:02.079 --> 00:48:07.239
<v Speaker 6>and evaluation and telling player people and fans of how

1052
00:48:07.280 --> 00:48:08.920
<v Speaker 6>good this player is are, how good he could be,

1053
00:48:09.280 --> 00:48:10.559
<v Speaker 6>and they're not even there week one.

1054
00:48:10.840 --> 00:48:13.760
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's a crazy time we live in. And that's

1055
00:48:13.800 --> 00:48:16.960
<v Speaker 5>that's why you see the coaches leaving, stepping down. It's

1056
00:48:17.039 --> 00:48:21.079
<v Speaker 5>not it's not my time anymore, time changing. But it's

1057
00:48:21.400 --> 00:48:23.800
<v Speaker 5>nice when you have people within the facilities that.

1058
00:48:23.800 --> 00:48:24.199
<v Speaker 3>Can help you.

1059
00:48:24.400 --> 00:48:27.079
<v Speaker 6>But they're also the product of it all though, Right,

1060
00:48:27.199 --> 00:48:29.320
<v Speaker 6>the money and everything and oh, you know what, we

1061
00:48:29.360 --> 00:48:31.679
<v Speaker 6>need to get these kids paid. Let's open everything up

1062
00:48:31.760 --> 00:48:35.199
<v Speaker 6>and okay, you opened up door's box. Here here's the result.

1063
00:48:35.400 --> 00:48:35.760
<v Speaker 2>Here you go.

1064
00:48:36.639 --> 00:48:39.079
<v Speaker 3>This is what everybody wanted. I don't know, you know exactly.

1065
00:48:39.280 --> 00:48:41.320
<v Speaker 3>I remember just yesterday. I think he was a coach

1066
00:48:41.400 --> 00:48:43.880
<v Speaker 3>of football coach. I don't remember where he was talking about.

1067
00:48:43.880 --> 00:48:46.639
<v Speaker 3>It's the more power to the kids, because you know

1068
00:48:46.679 --> 00:48:49.400
<v Speaker 3>they're benefiting, but the one who created this massively adults

1069
00:48:50.320 --> 00:48:53.280
<v Speaker 3>and now there's no there's no quick fix in sight.

1070
00:48:53.639 --> 00:48:59.679
<v Speaker 3>And then we talk about the the revenue share that's

1071
00:48:59.679 --> 00:49:01.840
<v Speaker 3>going to be. That's that's gonna be a message. Just

1072
00:49:01.920 --> 00:49:03.800
<v Speaker 3>from talking to you the last few days, I'm thinking,

1073
00:49:04.360 --> 00:49:06.840
<v Speaker 3>how is this gonna work? If my daughter played and

1074
00:49:06.920 --> 00:49:09.000
<v Speaker 3>she's not getting much or whatever, and she's working as

1075
00:49:09.039 --> 00:49:11.880
<v Speaker 3>hard as a football team or whatever, and I'm and

1076
00:49:12.000 --> 00:49:13.840
<v Speaker 3>I and they're getting this, and these guys are getting

1077
00:49:13.880 --> 00:49:16.320
<v Speaker 3>that and they're going three and eight.

1078
00:49:17.119 --> 00:49:21.679
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, because what what makes money on a campus evening.

1079
00:49:21.960 --> 00:49:24.119
<v Speaker 3>No, no, no, I get that. I get that. You

1080
00:49:24.159 --> 00:49:26.280
<v Speaker 3>know we're bringing in the revenue. But also if you're

1081
00:49:26.280 --> 00:49:28.960
<v Speaker 3>bringing the revenue better be damn good. It should be good.

1082
00:49:29.440 --> 00:49:32.559
<v Speaker 6>I remember coach Andrea used to say every now and

1083
00:49:32.599 --> 00:49:35.679
<v Speaker 6>then in this press conferences, I always hope football is

1084
00:49:35.719 --> 00:49:38.519
<v Speaker 6>good because the football is good. That means we get

1085
00:49:38.559 --> 00:49:41.719
<v Speaker 6>more revenue. Yeah, you you eat staball is better. Football

1086
00:49:41.840 --> 00:49:42.679
<v Speaker 6>is the better we are.

1087
00:49:42.880 --> 00:49:46.199
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Everyone eats steak or whatever. Everyone gets to benefit

1088
00:49:46.280 --> 00:49:49.320
<v Speaker 3>from that. Yeah, and now who knows what the future

1089
00:49:49.360 --> 00:49:52.119
<v Speaker 3>and basketball too. You know, basketball is self sustaining or

1090
00:49:52.239 --> 00:49:55.239
<v Speaker 3>we thought it would be uh, the worst thing to

1091
00:49:55.320 --> 00:49:57.840
<v Speaker 3>happen to the city. The city could happen if the

1092
00:49:57.880 --> 00:50:00.400
<v Speaker 3>basketball team collapse. And not to say it it would,

1093
00:50:00.960 --> 00:50:04.239
<v Speaker 3>but god, fans like you who've grown up here, how

1094
00:50:04.320 --> 00:50:04.920
<v Speaker 3>bad would that be?

1095
00:50:05.760 --> 00:50:09.800
<v Speaker 5>Extremely bad? Because for most people that's one of the

1096
00:50:09.840 --> 00:50:12.639
<v Speaker 5>selling points of Tucson. You know, you don't have Arizona,

1097
00:50:12.679 --> 00:50:14.119
<v Speaker 5>but you don't have an NBA team. You don't have

1098
00:50:14.159 --> 00:50:16.320
<v Speaker 5>an NFL team, but you have Arizona basket.

1099
00:50:16.400 --> 00:50:20.440
<v Speaker 3>You have good weather, great weather, Yeah, very good. No, right,

1100
00:50:20.559 --> 00:50:23.679
<v Speaker 3>you have good weather, great weather. You have a little hot,

1101
00:50:23.960 --> 00:50:25.400
<v Speaker 3>and then you have Arizona basketball.

1102
00:50:26.360 --> 00:50:28.199
<v Speaker 6>What do they say if they have every football season

1103
00:50:28.239 --> 00:50:30.039
<v Speaker 6>when it doesn't go as ball? When's basketball, you can

1104
00:50:30.079 --> 00:50:32.480
<v Speaker 6>hear the basketball bounce, Well, now you can hear the

1105
00:50:32.519 --> 00:50:34.239
<v Speaker 6>bats I guess clinking for baseball.

1106
00:50:34.440 --> 00:50:34.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

1107
00:50:35.400 --> 00:50:37.239
<v Speaker 3>I really don't know what's going forward to if you're

1108
00:50:37.239 --> 00:50:39.719
<v Speaker 3>an Arizona fan. Well, to be fair to guys, Arizona

1109
00:50:39.760 --> 00:50:43.400
<v Speaker 3>has has had a lot of steak recently past. Now,

1110
00:50:43.440 --> 00:50:45.239
<v Speaker 3>maybe that's one of these years where it's cyclical and

1111
00:50:45.320 --> 00:50:48.239
<v Speaker 3>it goes bad and they'll or if it continues to

1112
00:50:48.320 --> 00:50:50.599
<v Speaker 3>go bad, it continues to go bad. You can't you

1113
00:50:50.639 --> 00:50:52.559
<v Speaker 3>can't guarantee that it's not going to continue to go bad.

1114
00:50:52.599 --> 00:50:54.760
<v Speaker 6>Because I think this is the first time they're under

1115
00:50:54.960 --> 00:50:57.280
<v Speaker 6>and correct me if I'm wrong. There are under five hundred.

1116
00:50:57.440 --> 00:50:58.880
<v Speaker 6>This is Shawn Millers first season.

1117
00:50:59.320 --> 00:51:01.639
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well his first season, right, because they were there

1118
00:51:01.639 --> 00:51:02.360
<v Speaker 3>were four and five.

1119
00:51:02.320 --> 00:51:05.519
<v Speaker 6>They finished I think they finished like fifteen sixteen with

1120
00:51:05.679 --> 00:51:06.880
<v Speaker 6>Derek a freshman.

1121
00:51:07.000 --> 00:51:09.559
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that team wasn't supposed to be good. Yeah, this

1122
00:51:09.719 --> 00:51:12.639
<v Speaker 3>team was. Yeah, unless we all missed. And who do

1123
00:51:12.719 --> 00:51:14.639
<v Speaker 3>we know about the transfer portal? What do we know

1124
00:51:14.679 --> 00:51:17.559
<v Speaker 3>about the We don't know I mean, you're all speculating

1125
00:51:17.599 --> 00:51:20.239
<v Speaker 3>because it's e whether the media told you they're good

1126
00:51:20.679 --> 00:51:24.039
<v Speaker 3>or you're trusting Tommy's evaluation stuff. They're just not playing

1127
00:51:24.079 --> 00:51:26.239
<v Speaker 3>well together and they're not playing Arizona basketball.

1128
00:51:26.440 --> 00:51:28.639
<v Speaker 6>I think the biggest two things we talked about coming

1129
00:51:28.679 --> 00:51:31.920
<v Speaker 6>into this season was could creev Us step up and

1130
00:51:32.000 --> 00:51:33.360
<v Speaker 6>become a tougher guy?

1131
00:51:33.480 --> 00:51:35.880
<v Speaker 3>And fresh that we have two many So okay, go ahead,

1132
00:51:35.880 --> 00:51:36.320
<v Speaker 3>give your list.

1133
00:51:36.679 --> 00:51:39.639
<v Speaker 6>Crevas stepping up and becoming tougher upfront, okay, Jayden Bradley

1134
00:51:39.679 --> 00:51:42.480
<v Speaker 6>becoming a true point guard okay two and the development

1135
00:51:42.559 --> 00:51:43.800
<v Speaker 6>of the bigs behind Crevas.

1136
00:51:44.119 --> 00:51:47.880
<v Speaker 3>Okay, strike one two three, strike two, Strike three, and

1137
00:51:47.920 --> 00:51:51.000
<v Speaker 3>if you give me three more, Caleb being better and

1138
00:51:51.119 --> 00:51:54.800
<v Speaker 3>maybe better but less aggressive. Uh, there's so many Brent

1139
00:51:55.000 --> 00:51:57.360
<v Speaker 3>being good coming off the bench or whatever. Two. That's

1140
00:51:57.400 --> 00:51:59.440
<v Speaker 3>a zero for two there, and you can give me

1141
00:51:59.480 --> 00:52:03.760
<v Speaker 3>another third. The transfers coming in being halfway decent. I mean,

1142
00:52:03.840 --> 00:52:06.920
<v Speaker 3>come on, And if that's what we're talking about. All

1143
00:52:07.000 --> 00:52:09.639
<v Speaker 3>these things that you can come up with have been negatives.

1144
00:52:10.000 --> 00:52:12.719
<v Speaker 3>What's the one positive? Give me a positive, Give me hope.

1145
00:52:14.320 --> 00:52:15.840
<v Speaker 3>There is none, right, I mean, there's.

1146
00:52:15.679 --> 00:52:20.760
<v Speaker 6>No waka look stuff, Waka book stuff, their jerseys match.

1147
00:52:20.840 --> 00:52:22.760
<v Speaker 3>I don't know with that, I think we gotta go.

1148
00:52:23.719 --> 00:52:26.119
<v Speaker 3>We canna have breaking news, breaking news, and we'll talk

1149
00:52:26.159 --> 00:52:28.039
<v Speaker 3>more about all this obviously. On the other side, Bruce

1150
00:52:28.119 --> 00:52:31.599
<v Speaker 3>Pasco is gonna come out about four thirty ish for

1151

1152
00:52:33.760 --> 00:52:33.880
