Speaker 5: Well, if it's over, for sure, there could be some
Speaker 5: NCAA possibilities.
Speaker 4: I suppose.
Speaker 5: I don't know how many teams would would go out
Speaker 5: of the Big twelve.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but that's tough.

Speaker 5: It's pretty impressive. I didn't think that was gonna be broken.
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't follow hockey. Yeah, this is goals. Yeah,
Speaker 5: so I mean, Gretzky's gonna still have the overall points
Speaker 5: records going. But I mean, I didn't think anybody would
Speaker 5: get to whatever that number is. It's a pretty large number.

Speaker 2: the tark Oh no.
Speaker 8: I've.
Speaker 4: About how he went to go watch his brother play
Speaker 4: Little leaguers up he was at the house. I never
Speaker 4: heard that story.
Speaker 2: That was a funny story the way it's in the book.
Speaker 2: And he says, some old dude was here looking for you.
Speaker 2: He was a short guy. Yeah, that was it.
Speaker 4: That's so funny.
Speaker 2: It was dark, and had he been there, he said
Speaker 2: he would not have he would have been hard.
Speaker 5: He would have he would have gone to you, and
Speaker 5: hard to turn him down because he came to his house. Right, Yeah,
Speaker 5: what we missed all? I mean, those are all the
Speaker 5: fun times that doesn't happen anymore.
Speaker 2: And you don't get those stories much anymore because you know,
Speaker 2: after him, it was off the you know, kind of
Speaker 2: the midnight loot thing and coming in and swooping and
Speaker 2: getting played.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean nowadays it's more like, you know, how
Speaker 5: can we get this guy to transfer to our school?
Speaker 4: Let go to their talk to mom and dad, go
Speaker 4: to their house.
Speaker 2: How do you feel about like Nebraska and some of
Speaker 2: the other schools not having spring training or spring football
Speaker 2: because they don't want them to see people already know
Speaker 2: who you have?
Speaker 5: And then did you watch any of the Bill Belichick
Speaker 5: highlights in North Carolina? They're not wearing any numbers, I
Speaker 5: don't think on their really jerseys or whatever.
Speaker 4: How do you know who's who?
Speaker 2: They're not doing the what do you call it, the
Speaker 2: h HBO, you're not doing that. I think they decided
Speaker 2: after all that's what I read.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that was you know Actually, if you saw last
Speaker 5: year's version of that show, they did the New York
Speaker 5: Giants and that's kind of when the sick one Barkley
Speaker 5: trade was made. It was really pretty fun to watch
Speaker 5: in hindsight, because I mean they're sitting there fretting over
Speaker 5: what do we do this. They're talking to the owner,
Speaker 5: talking to the GM the coach, everybody weighed in on it.
Speaker 4: Okay, we gotta let them go, and then look what happens.
Speaker 4: Sometimes you're just are the Giants? You're a Jets fan? Right?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Just why aren't you a Giants fan?
Speaker 3: If that's any anything is better than being a Jets
Speaker 3: fan because my dad was a Jets.
Speaker 4: Oh that's right. So how are they?
Speaker 2: They're still respected in the in the big city, the
Speaker 2: Giants are, even though they haven't been good in a
Speaker 2: long time.
Speaker 3: I would say the Giants are a little bigger than
Speaker 3: the Jets are in the city.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: It's kind of like the little brother at times.
Speaker 4: The Jets. Yeah, they they haven't been a big brother
Speaker 4: in forever.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, that's about it. A couple of years
Speaker 5: sprinkled in there.
Speaker 4: Excuse me, so you look familiar. What's your name? Joe Namath?
Speaker 4: I've never heard of you. You've never heard of you.

Speaker 4: We're gonna keep We're gonna keep.
Speaker 2: You on and we'll go to about four to twenty
Speaker 2: and then take a break. Is that cool. I'm with
Speaker 2: Dave Silver, I'm Steve Rivera. As we know, I want
Speaker 2: to thank you because you do a lot for this
Speaker 2: show and obviously the community. Dave here was telling me,
Speaker 2: you guys used to have the Nova Home Loans Player
Speaker 2: of the Week at the channel night.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 8: I used to. That was my that was my TV debut.
Speaker 4: He was great times. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm gonna joke, what are you doing now with
Speaker 2: the compusertors? At what level are you out with there
Speaker 2: at the golf course?
Speaker 8: So I've been, uh, I've been at Conquisador now this
Speaker 8: will be my ninth year obviously. Then then then we
Speaker 8: degree for quite a while working my way up from
Speaker 8: a rookie, you know, all kinds of jobs just for
Speaker 8: the tournament, and and now I'm the president this year,
Speaker 8: so I'm in the twilight of my conquisitor, Dave, and
Speaker 8: you know, this would be my last hurrah, so I'm
Speaker 8: excited to get sided a bittersweet as well.
Speaker 4: How's my guy Aaron been doing for this tournament?
Speaker 6: Good?
Speaker 8: Good, good, He's he's doing good. Obviously, he spent a
Speaker 8: year putting this thing together, so you know, this is
Speaker 8: a culmination of all of those hours and days out
Speaker 8: here at the course and and meetings and whatnot. So
Speaker 8: we're excited for a successful tournament. Hopefully the weather cooperates
Speaker 8: a little bit tomorrow, and I think Saturday and Sunday
Speaker 8: are gonna be pretty awesome.
Speaker 5: Tell us about the move to La Poloma and why
Speaker 5: did that happen, and what's your thoughts on how it went,
Speaker 5: you know, really in the first time around last year.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, yeah, this is our second year at
Speaker 8: O Pahoma. You know, been at OMNI for a number
Speaker 8: of years, and and obviously there's a there's a long
Speaker 8: standing relationship decades at at Omni. But you know, things,
Speaker 8: you know, some good things come to an end, and
Speaker 8: I think there was kind of a change that we needed.
Speaker 8: I think both entities kind of saw that and and
Speaker 8: UH down a new home at La Pahoma, which has
Speaker 8: been amazing and challenging getting a new venue and kind
Speaker 8: of figuring out the way out and and how things work.
Speaker 8: So you know, last year was our our test run.
Speaker 8: But you know, they they love having us out here.
Speaker 8: They've got the resort, you know, on site. So the
Speaker 8: players love that because that was a big thing at
Speaker 8: Omni with the resort there, and you know, they can
Speaker 8: they can hang out here at the at the at
Speaker 8: the clubhouse, they can go to the restaurants around there
Speaker 8: or at La Palloma and uh, you know, go to bed,
Speaker 8: wake up or all out of bed and hit the
Speaker 8: uh hit the driving range in the morning. So got
Speaker 8: some really good feedback. A little more challenging course, obviously
Speaker 8: because at the Desert Desert course and a lot of
Speaker 8: those guys were used to Omni. It's a little more
Speaker 8: forgiving and and UH a lot more open. But you know,
Speaker 8: we last year was I think the first UH tournament
Speaker 8: where the golfers were able to use golf carts, and
Speaker 8: so obviously that's needed out there. And and so I
Speaker 8: think they had a little little challenge to kind of
Speaker 8: get used to that, but I think I think they
Speaker 8: embraced it, especially you know, having to walk around and
Speaker 8: while ploma that's a that's a hike, So they definitely
Speaker 8: like that cart to have them right around.
Speaker 2: So what's the what's the uh, the contract with them
Speaker 2: for how long?
Speaker 4: I once you longer.
Speaker 8: I've been a couple few more years here and I think, uh,
Speaker 8: I think, you know, we may look at an extension
Speaker 8: hopefully and if if not, you know, our our goal
Speaker 8: of course for the case scores is always keep professional
Speaker 8: golf in two songs. So it's uh, it's been a
Speaker 8: great relationship. They love having us here. The facilities are awesome.
Speaker 8: You know, the people here that work here are great,
Speaker 8: and it's a really good relationship that we have with
Speaker 8: with the course here.
Speaker 5: How about the golf fan Are they okay with the
Speaker 5: with the hilly course and you know it's just you
Speaker 5: know walking that yeah.
Speaker 8: Again, kind of figuring that out last year, we we
Speaker 8: we had to kind of change some of the ingress
Speaker 8: egress options here and and and also you've got the
Speaker 8: pros on carts and maneuvering the pathways with the crowd.
Speaker 8: We kind of figure out some weak points last year
Speaker 8: and got this identified this year. But it's it's it's
Speaker 8: nice here because you've got you know, you've got all
Speaker 8: eighteen seventeen sixteen right right near the clubhouse. Fifteen's right
Speaker 8: right next to it as well, So you've got four
Speaker 8: really gratefuls that the public can easily walk to. You've
Speaker 8: got those ones that want to get their steps in
Speaker 8: and they can they can hike back, you know, to
Speaker 8: the back holes. They'll definitely be be walking and going uphills.
Speaker 8: But you know, some people like that challenge. And and
Speaker 8: but again a majority of it is all centered around
Speaker 8: here as well as with the hospitality and and venues
Speaker 8: and and you know, the beverages and mood and whatnot.
Speaker 8: It's all kind of a one stop shop there. For sure.
Speaker 2: I know I'm going Saturday and Sunday. I got my
Speaker 2: tickets at least for Saturday donated. It's almost a free trip.
Speaker 2: You can just go there, pay five bucks, you know,
Speaker 2: donate to your journey, and anybody who wants to go
Speaker 2: should go. It's a heck of a price to go
Speaker 2: and and enjoy it, right, and then Sunday is the
Speaker 2: final yep.
Speaker 8: Yeah, and then we've got We've also got the concert,
Speaker 8: you know, this concert on Friday and Saturday. So we've
Speaker 8: got Vanilla Ice, Rob Bass Tone Loke on Friday, and
Speaker 8: this is at the Rito Downs. I know there's still

Speaker 8: We're excited to have him. Steve Stricker was going to
Speaker 8: be here, but he had to withdraw. So that was
Speaker 8: is what it is. But that's just that's just life.
Speaker 8: But you know, got to see uh ainho Cemenez uh
Speaker 8: walking around, strutting around like a Spanish rooster.
Speaker 4: Store.

Speaker 5: maybe I don't know if they're going to get him.
Speaker 5: But Andrea Goodala, the second apparently making a campus visit.
Speaker 5: So the next kids, he's the legacy kids. So Gilbert's
Speaker 5: kid showed up. It apparently doesn't doesn't want to play
Speaker 5: here or is not good enough to play here. Andrea
Speaker 5: Godala's son very tall and skinny and young, so a
Speaker 5: lot a lot of a lot of places where you
Speaker 5: can grow. But he's playing in the Midwest in Missouri,
Speaker 5: and uh, you know he could maybe battle Lebron Lebron's
Speaker 5: kids coming.
Speaker 4: Is coming the different spot park because he's sixty three.
Speaker 2: Yet the smaller smaller, Yeah, he's six seven.
Speaker 4: You you you.
Speaker 2: Covered both guys, Gilbert and Andre Yeah, who had a
Speaker 2: better career here.
Speaker 5: Oh, I'm gonna Gilbert. I don't know, you're on the spot.
Speaker 5: I got a look at their stats.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's funny. Gilbert got to the final four.
Speaker 2: There was a pain and Andre was too a little
Speaker 2: And you know Andre's left because he's the one that
Speaker 2: said I made Luke cuss one time and he kind
Speaker 2: of did you know that story? Yes, and Andrea was
Speaker 2: pretty good, Luke said. Luke said. Luke Walton said, if
Speaker 2: he were to stay four years, he'd be the best
Speaker 2: player to ever play here. I don't disagree with that.
Speaker 2: I don't disagree with that. He was so good triple doublesorically.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean he was.
Speaker 5: He never really I mean he did eventually develop that
Speaker 5: outside shot once he got into the NBA, but here
Speaker 5: he didn't have much of an outside game at all.
Speaker 5: It's all drive and athletic stuff, very athletic. Him and
Speaker 5: has Adams. That was a pretty good tandem of athletes.
Speaker 4: And that's that's yearly.
Speaker 2: Remember if you lost, they lost to Kansas as the
Speaker 2: number one in two thousand and three.
Speaker 4: Okay, that's right.
Speaker 2: Uh, and Jason missed the three pointer in the corner,
Speaker 2: that's right. Yeah, I remember stuff that I shouldn't remember
Speaker 2: because I can't remember your name.
Speaker 4: I don't. I don't think I was. I might have
Speaker 4: been at that game An could beat Notre Dame and
Speaker 4: then he lost lost to Kansas.
Speaker 5: That was in the Elite eight Elite Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: I mean I remember when he came in because he
Speaker 5: was from the Chicago area or Illinois, you know, so
Speaker 5: there was a little bit of this I feel like
Speaker 5: I'm going to be the next Michael Jordan to him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he and well he had gone to Arkansas, right,
Speaker 2: you remember, and then Nolan Richard him got fired, so
Speaker 2: we decided to come here.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I think he tried to model his game after Jordan,
Speaker 5: and I mean Jordan didn't have a great outside game
Speaker 5: until maybe four or five years into his career. But
Speaker 5: you know, Andre got better, got better, and was obviously
Speaker 5: a great defensive player.
Speaker 2: And uh you know, in addition, do you remember what
Speaker 2: he's kind of interested more infamous for here too as well?
Speaker 4: Andre Yeah, No, uh, Pack twelve tournament, Pack ten tournament.
Speaker 2: At the time, I think, uh, they were playing it
Speaker 2: and he was on his phone as they were.
Speaker 4: On his phone as they were ready to be introduced
Speaker 4: coming out of the tunnel. I forgot about that one.
Speaker 4: That's a good one.
Speaker 5: It's reminiscent of that guy that's on the on what
Speaker 5: the Philadelphia Eagles. It's reading a book on the sidelines,
Speaker 5: you know, during the game. So now Andre did that
Speaker 5: twenty five years ago. Twenty years ago.
Speaker 2: Yeah, two thousand and fourish, they lost the seat in
Speaker 2: the Hall his senior year. They were they had that
Speaker 2: lead and then he blew it against Seaton Hall two
Speaker 2: thousand and four. I think it was before the that
Speaker 2: was before the big blow in the Illinois game. The
Speaker 2: Illinois game.
Speaker 4: You were there, Yeah, sadly, yes, I was.
Speaker 2: Anthony Jimino and I were already calling our trouble agent
Speaker 2: how to get to the final four?
Speaker 4: Midway through the five minutes left? Oh yeah, I was.
Speaker 4: I was with you.
Speaker 5: I was probably on a hold as well. Yeah, where
Speaker 5: are we gonna go?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, easy trip isy tip?
Speaker 2: Wait, wait to take it hold on three minutes left,
Speaker 2: they got any pointly two minus left?
Speaker 4: What happened? That was the game?
Speaker 5: We will well, Oh gosh, is this gonna be the
Speaker 5: twenty twenty Yeah? Yeah, oh man, I'm expecting a good
Speaker 5: little story from you.
Speaker 4: They're not celebrating that put that baby together.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, you brought something up that I can't
Speaker 2: still can't remember the Kansas City trip in two thousand
Speaker 2: and one.
Speaker 4: I really don't remember that trip.
Speaker 5: Come on, there must be some Arizona fans who went there,
Speaker 5: and I just remember it was snowing, it was cold,

Speaker 2: next week they canceled something on Wednesday because it is
Speaker 2: going to be very cold, and people from here, see,

Speaker 5: we had to some you know, establishments, and there were
Speaker 5: all kinds of music.
Speaker 4: So it was pretty pretty crazy. Okay. I must have
Speaker 4: slept in Corky and I were just kind of what
Speaker 4: were you doing.
Speaker 2: I don't remember. I really this is surprised to me
Speaker 2: because I don't remember. I remember everything else, you know,

Speaker 5: you for that. They sent me like this giant piece
Speaker 5: of brisket, literally like packaged in this like refrigerated cart
Speaker 5: and shows up at this TV station.

Speaker 5: People were terrified to like even open it. But they
Speaker 5: sent me like a big piece of beef and that
Speaker 5: was their thank you gift and we chopped it up
Speaker 5: and I mean, yeah, so if you go to the
Speaker 5: Kansas City and you look for.
Speaker 4: The TCU, it was really good. It was good gifts.
Speaker 4: It was like, what I don't i've you know, I've
Speaker 4: gotten other you know, thank you for the stories we

Speaker 5: local listings. But it's good coverage for Tucson, especially if
Speaker 5: the sun shining and La Paloma looks great and you're
Speaker 5: right up against the Catialenas, it's good cover.
Speaker 2: I think I think you're right with the sun shining.
Speaker 2: They'll show the mountains right there. Even when it snows.
Speaker 2: That's when it gets really snowing too, So i'd look
Speaker 2: at these great looking This is that.
Speaker 4: In the forecast for tomorrow? So snow.
Speaker 5: I don't know if that is right there. Yeah, but
Speaker 5: I know I think maybe like oracles. So there'll probably
Speaker 5: be some snow in the cat and they'll get some
Speaker 5: photos of that. It could be pretty. It'll be pretty.
Speaker 4: What's that? And then guess what everybody on Facebook will
Speaker 4: have it? Look what's this?
Speaker 1: No?

Speaker 5: You know, you're up a little bit and it's you know,
Speaker 5: you're maybe thirty five hundred feet and the snow.
Speaker 2: But I think it wouldn't stick that long when they
Speaker 2: cleared out pretty much.

Speaker 4: on the air nine the ball. Who's this?
Speaker 2: Thanks for calling and saving us, Steve vict Oh, here
Speaker 2: we go.
Speaker 4: I'm ready for you.
Speaker 8: I got a serious question.
Speaker 9: This is not funny, Dave. You can help me out.
Speaker 10: On this.
Speaker 9: In baseball when I was coaching playing, if a guy
Speaker 9: turned on an inside pastball twice in a row, you
Speaker 9: had a coach come to you and say, hey, we
Speaker 9: got to go off speed with this guy something against
Speaker 9: Arizona State. That guy averages twelve points a game. I
Speaker 9: forget his name, and he's drilling them for thirty and
Speaker 9: nobody's counting. Tommy, Hey, we got a hedge on this guy.
Speaker 9: We got to close out. Nothing like that happens today.
Speaker 9: In basketball. Idea, this girl is driving down the lane
Speaker 9: because everybody's helping out too much, and nobody went to
Speaker 9: her or her herself that has to know basketball, you know,
Speaker 9: by the boatloads, and said, hey, this girl's killing me
Speaker 9: because she's just driving down the lane and there's nobody
Speaker 9: in the middle of the stopper. That doesn't happen in basketball.
Speaker 9: You guys have been around closer than I and I
Speaker 9: don't know the game.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're saying that they're not being coached correctly.
Speaker 9: I'm saying, isn't there a coach that I tell you that?
Speaker 9: As you guys that was just drilling threes all night long.
Speaker 9: Nobody went to Tommy and said, hey, he need to
Speaker 9: we can't play off of this guy anymore. We gotta
Speaker 9: need somebody to stay on him, change things around, or
Speaker 9: I just don't get it.
Speaker 4: No, it's gonna say it's it is frustrating to watch.
Speaker 4: I mean again, we're all kind of watching his fans
Speaker 4: and maybe don't understand the x's and o's, but we
Speaker 4: just just wondering why why are guys open all the time,
Speaker 4: and why are they not making some adjustments.
Speaker 9: But Dave, especially that guy, he's a troup point a
Speaker 9: game scorer. Yeah, and it just seems like every time
Speaker 9: you were trying about newspapers and stuff, every time you
Speaker 9: open the paper on Arizona for the last twenty five years,
Speaker 9: it's like this guy sets a new record.
Speaker 4: It happens all the time, Vick.
Speaker 2: You know that when I covered it, it was like
Speaker 2: some dude, some dude, some tall dudes from Washington State.
Speaker 2: You never even knew he was on the roster, scores
Speaker 2: twenty five points and then.
Speaker 4: He doesn't do it again.
Speaker 2: True, Vic, if you coached, and I know you did,
Speaker 2: and you follow these things, it happens every now and again.
Speaker 2: I'm sure he said, you know, we got to get
Speaker 2: this guy, and Ida said, let's got to stop this girl,
Speaker 2: and it just doesn't happen because the basketball gods just
Speaker 2: find a way to find the person.
Speaker 4: What do you think is gonna happen in basketball? Did
Speaker 4: you go to a lot of basketball women?
Speaker 9: I go to all the women's games, So tell me
Speaker 9: what's going to happen. I would hate to see her leave.
Speaker 9: She's pretty good for the city, for the school, but
Speaker 9: something's internal is kind of off there. People must I
Speaker 9: don't know, people don't like her or something or I mean,
Speaker 9: how can how can Maddy Connor go away? And she's
Speaker 9: leading three point shooter and here and in the country
Speaker 9: and here in Arizona she doesn't play. Caitlyn Gilbert had
Speaker 9: so much trouble and she goes to l s U
Speaker 9: and is on the top five team in the nation
Speaker 9: and is and is just thriving. That shouldn't happen. I
Speaker 9: don't me anyway. I mean, is it?
Speaker 6: So?
Speaker 9: Is it the teacher or the student?
Speaker 4: Well? Good question, good question.
Speaker 5: I'm sure there's going to be a room, you know.
Speaker 5: I'm sure that you know, they always have those meetings
Speaker 5: at the end of the season, the athletic director and
Speaker 5: the staff.
Speaker 8: And try to figure out and then it carries.
Speaker 9: Me with a new Yeah, with a new athletic director.
Speaker 9: Is she gonna say?
Speaker 6: Hey?
Speaker 9: But I'm telling you, watching that offense is like watching
Speaker 9: grass grow. Oh my god.
Speaker 2: Well to your questions, Victor, the only the shadow knows,
Speaker 2: only the shadows.
Speaker 8: All right, you guys, have a great day.
Speaker 4: Thank you, Thank you a Victor.
Speaker 2: You call it Jay's on tomorrow, So I don't know
Speaker 2: if you're gonna call her out, But they're gonna win
Speaker 2: on Saturday.
Speaker 9: Yeah, we're gonna win. We're gonna win. But I'm scared
Speaker 9: we might have to face him twice in a row.
Speaker 4: That could very well happen. Yeah, yeah, which I know.
Speaker 4: And beating a team twice is.
Speaker 9: Tough, Yes it is.
Speaker 8: And okay, guys, thanks.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Victor literally in their in their backyard.
Speaker 2: So you so you know that the Tommy's telling these
Speaker 2: guys and that's all they really had is that dude,
Speaker 2: I forget his name now. He was at the podium,
Speaker 2: uh and he scored crazy because no one else was
Speaker 2: doing it right right, It's like Arizona, how's this guy
Speaker 2: doing it well?
Speaker 4: They can't stop him, go to him all the time.
Speaker 5: It was frustrating to watch them. You were there and
Speaker 5: I just watching at home. It was just tough to
Speaker 5: watch that. You know, they hung in there that what
Speaker 5: six players then you know they basically had like.
Speaker 2: The within three I think eighty ninety eighty six, right, yeah,
Speaker 2: and you're thinking, oh, if they lose this game, it's
Speaker 2: not going to be pretty. No, and they pulled away,
Speaker 2: but still wasn't enough. Like I wrote yesterday, I guess
Speaker 2: fans here needs style points. Hope they should have been
Speaker 2: in my thirty and maybe they should have. Yeah, but
Speaker 2: they didn't. They got to win ten points with thirteen points.
Speaker 5: I think everybody was kind of expecting, you know, the
Speaker 5: Bobby Hurley farewell game and just pound them away. And
Speaker 5: you know, the way the last game went sports is funny.
Speaker 5: You just you know, I was sure, what's going to happen?
Speaker 5: Looking with the upsets we've been talking about, you know
Speaker 5: in the.
Speaker 4: SEC right just this week.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't pay attention to other fan bases, you know, specifically,
Speaker 2: but I'm sure that they're no different than Arizona. You
Speaker 2: don't win by enough one, Oh you should have beaten
Speaker 2: this team two by more, and what's going on? YadA YadA.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm sure people not are not happy in Kansas
Speaker 5: with their season is going number one.
Speaker 4: They're worse than Arizona, number one.
Speaker 2: Team in the country coming in yeah, number one, number
Speaker 2: one team and now maybe a seven seeds sixty.
Speaker 5: I mean, the standards are so high for some of
Speaker 5: these colleges in some of these areas where you know,
Speaker 5: they're the only game in towns, just like the Wildcats
Speaker 5: are here, so you know it's a big deal. There
Speaker 5: as a lot of people care and a lot of
Speaker 5: the huge alumni, a huge history of players who played there,
Speaker 5: and you know they got a legacy to live up to.
Speaker 4: Okay, are we done. We're almost done. Yeah, about thirty seconds.
Speaker 4: Thanks Dave.
Speaker 2: Next week I might see you a lot because of
Speaker 2: the book signed books. I'm going to be here the
