WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:03.120
<v Speaker 1>Like breaking news, like happening as we speak. But it's

2
00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:05.719
<v Speaker 1>been out there for looks like about an hour now.

3
00:00:05.799 --> 00:00:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Maybe it happened right as the show started, which you know,

4
00:00:08.720 --> 00:00:10.640
<v Speaker 1>usually I try to keep up. I try to balance it.

5
00:00:10.679 --> 00:00:13.359
<v Speaker 1>I try to keep my eyes on what's going on

6
00:00:13.759 --> 00:00:16.600
<v Speaker 1>with social media news. You know a lot of times

7
00:00:16.600 --> 00:00:18.480
<v Speaker 1>within a three hour window, you have news that breaks

8
00:00:18.519 --> 00:00:19.800
<v Speaker 1>during the show, and you want to be able to

9
00:00:20.239 --> 00:00:23.120
<v Speaker 1>share that news with folks that are listening. But I

10
00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:24.800
<v Speaker 1>didn't see this right at the beginning of the hour.

11
00:00:25.359 --> 00:00:28.960
<v Speaker 1>There's a standoff between Oklahoma State and Mike Gundy. Pete

12
00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:34.880
<v Speaker 1>Thamil of ESPN is reporting that the Oklahoma State Administration,

13
00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:37.600
<v Speaker 1>I guess his bosses they wanted to take a restructured

14
00:00:37.640 --> 00:00:41.520
<v Speaker 1>contract that would include a pay cut. They have discussed

15
00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:43.920
<v Speaker 1>firing him for cause if he doesn't agree to the

16
00:00:43.960 --> 00:00:48.920
<v Speaker 1>new contract. And the update here since that came out

17
00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:50.880
<v Speaker 1>about an hour ago. This is from on three Sports,

18
00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:54.560
<v Speaker 1>that they offered him a reduced contract that would come

19
00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:56.799
<v Speaker 1>with assurances he would that he would go all in

20
00:00:56.840 --> 00:01:00.280
<v Speaker 1>on nil. The dollars saved on his contract would be

21
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:03.759
<v Speaker 1>put towards nil and revenue sharing. If Gundy does not agree,

22
00:01:03.759 --> 00:01:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Oklahoma State will terminate his existing deal and launch a

23
00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:12.120
<v Speaker 1>head coaching search. This is probably not the last time

24
00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:13.879
<v Speaker 1>you're going to see something like this happen. Now his

25
00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:16.840
<v Speaker 1>situation is a little bit different. He he's he's got

26
00:01:16.879 --> 00:01:20.599
<v Speaker 1>to be one of the longest tenured coaches in power football.

27
00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:22.519
<v Speaker 1>In fact, see if you can check on that for me, Austin,

28
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:25.719
<v Speaker 1>as far as who has been at their position the longest.

29
00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:27.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's crazy to say this, and it makes

30
00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:31.560
<v Speaker 1>me feel really really old, between who Gandhi and who anybody?

31
00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:36.560
<v Speaker 1>Okay college football, Yeah, I mean the longest tenured coaches.

32
00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:39.239
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he's the I'm a man, I'm forty. That

33
00:01:39.319 --> 00:01:40.519
<v Speaker 1>was like eighteen years ago.

34
00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:43.319
<v Speaker 2>I mean that's and I remember that literally in middle

35
00:01:43.359 --> 00:01:44.159
<v Speaker 2>school and I had it.

36
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:45.519
<v Speaker 3>I had it up ready to play.

37
00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:48.239
<v Speaker 1>If you ever went that was that was whenever I was.

38
00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:53.000
<v Speaker 1>I remember it was right around the time that I

39
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:55.519
<v Speaker 1>had just become like obsessed with sports talk radio, and

40
00:01:55.560 --> 00:01:58.000
<v Speaker 1>I remember it became such a thing on the Jim

41
00:01:58.079 --> 00:01:59.599
<v Speaker 1>Rome Show, and I just thought it was so funny.

42
00:01:59.599 --> 00:02:01.280
<v Speaker 1>And I feel like that was not that long ago.

43
00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:03.040
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, it was a long long time ago. So

44
00:02:03.239 --> 00:02:06.920
<v Speaker 1>he's got a contract that was extended not that long ago.

45
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:10.680
<v Speaker 1>Uh and he last year, if you remember, it looked

46
00:02:10.719 --> 00:02:13.240
<v Speaker 1>like they were going to be terrible and he would

47
00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:15.439
<v Speaker 1>maybe not be able to salvage it. And then they

48
00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:18.039
<v Speaker 1>ended up breaking through and having a really good finish,

49
00:02:18.439 --> 00:02:19.840
<v Speaker 1>and then they ran it back this year and they

50
00:02:19.879 --> 00:02:22.039
<v Speaker 1>were one of the most disappointing teams in college football,

51
00:02:22.520 --> 00:02:25.360
<v Speaker 1>and you could, you know, I'm sure they probably wish

52
00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:26.919
<v Speaker 1>they did not extend him whenever they did. I'm not

53
00:02:26.919 --> 00:02:29.560
<v Speaker 1>sure exactly when that happened. But he's you know, he's

54
00:02:29.560 --> 00:02:33.120
<v Speaker 1>a pretty pretty stubborn. What you see is what you get, guy.

55
00:02:33.159 --> 00:02:36.120
<v Speaker 1>And look, I shouldn't even say stubborn. If somebody's asking

56
00:02:36.159 --> 00:02:40.800
<v Speaker 1>you to, you know, do them a favor by not

57
00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:45.000
<v Speaker 1>wanting what they agreed to give you in a contract,

58
00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:47.479
<v Speaker 1>like and you decide no, I'm not doing that, Like

59
00:02:47.520 --> 00:02:51.879
<v Speaker 1>you're you're not stubborn, You're you're I wouldn't even call

60
00:02:51.919 --> 00:02:54.000
<v Speaker 1>it standing your ground. You were doing what like you

61
00:02:54.039 --> 00:02:57.080
<v Speaker 1>are entitled to do. And there's nothing wrong with doing that.

62
00:02:57.080 --> 00:02:59.639
<v Speaker 1>That's like with Mark Stoops. Like even if Mark Stoops

63
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.240
<v Speaker 1>wanted to leave Kentucky like Kentucky fans want him to,

64
00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:07.080
<v Speaker 1>he'd be foolish to walk away from that money, and

65
00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:10.680
<v Speaker 1>only a fool would do that, So don't be mad

66
00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:12.800
<v Speaker 1>at him for like, I can't believe he won't just

67
00:03:12.840 --> 00:03:15.719
<v Speaker 1>walk away. He's gonna let this end nasty, and he's

68
00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:19.319
<v Speaker 1>gonna it's gonna be well, okay, well you know who

69
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:22.360
<v Speaker 1>would walk away from that contract? What are we gonna say?

70
00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:24.919
<v Speaker 3>I said, how could we forget? Iowa legend?

71
00:03:24.960 --> 00:03:29.439
<v Speaker 2>Kirk Farrens he's right ahead of Mike Gundy, so it's him,

72
00:03:29.520 --> 00:03:32.439
<v Speaker 2>and then it's Mike Gundy number two, and then right

73
00:03:32.479 --> 00:03:35.960
<v Speaker 2>after that is uh uh Kyle Whittingham of uteh.

74
00:03:35.919 --> 00:03:38.560
<v Speaker 1>Okay Stews is probably not far off from that now

75
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:40.280
<v Speaker 1>that I think about it, but yeah, I don't know.

76
00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:43.360
<v Speaker 2>He's number seventh behind Dave Dorn and Dabo Sweeney.

77
00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:46.639
<v Speaker 1>Makes sense. So when it comes to when I said,

78
00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:48.360
<v Speaker 1>this won't be the first time or this won't be

79
00:03:48.400 --> 00:03:50.400
<v Speaker 1>the last time this happens, you know, gundy situation is

80
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:53.159
<v Speaker 1>a little bit different because he he's been there a

81
00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:57.120
<v Speaker 1>long time and they probably have had two different scenarios

82
00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:00.159
<v Speaker 1>in his tenure to where they thought about, Okay, we're

83
00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:02.039
<v Speaker 1>gonna have to do it and move on, and they

84
00:04:02.039 --> 00:04:04.879
<v Speaker 1>didn't and now you know, they realize they're they're up

85
00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:06.479
<v Speaker 1>against it when it comes to his contract. Now, what

86
00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:10.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm curious about is what would they fire him for?

87
00:04:10.120 --> 00:04:13.960
<v Speaker 1>Calls for like what we don't I mean that, that's

88
00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:17.720
<v Speaker 1>that's what I would want to know. It's yeah, I mean,

89
00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:26.160
<v Speaker 1>I think you'll see schools either threaten that to get

90
00:04:26.199 --> 00:04:29.560
<v Speaker 1>a reduced buyout or I mean, the last the last

91
00:04:29.560 --> 00:04:32.680
<v Speaker 1>school I can think of that just tried to say,

92
00:04:32.839 --> 00:04:34.920
<v Speaker 1>all right, we're gonna, we're gonna, we're gonna claim we

93
00:04:34.959 --> 00:04:37.879
<v Speaker 1>have cause was Yukon basketball. If you remember when they

94
00:04:37.959 --> 00:04:40.879
<v Speaker 1>fired Kevin Ali, they had no reason to fire him

95
00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:43.759
<v Speaker 1>other than he stunk, but that's not included in the contracts.

96
00:04:43.839 --> 00:04:46.120
<v Speaker 1>These guys get guys like you could be a terrible coach,

97
00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:51.399
<v Speaker 1>and if you don't break rules and you are just

98
00:04:51.560 --> 00:04:53.800
<v Speaker 1>going to work and doing the job. Even if the

99
00:04:53.879 --> 00:04:56.959
<v Speaker 1>job performance is terrible and you lose every game, that

100
00:04:57.079 --> 00:05:00.000
<v Speaker 1>is not cause to fire you without you being given

101
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:04.319
<v Speaker 1>in every dime that is in the contract. So Kevin Ali,

102
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:06.720
<v Speaker 1>if you remember, he ended up suing and fighting and

103
00:05:06.759 --> 00:05:09.199
<v Speaker 1>he won, they had to pay him every bit. So

104
00:05:10.079 --> 00:05:14.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, maybe Oklahoma State realizes they do have something

105
00:05:14.600 --> 00:05:16.480
<v Speaker 1>in Gundhy. To be fair, he's the kind of coach that,

106
00:05:16.560 --> 00:05:18.839
<v Speaker 1>like nobody would really be shocked of anything that comes

107
00:05:18.839 --> 00:05:21.959
<v Speaker 1>out of whatever they use as the cause to get

108
00:05:22.040 --> 00:05:25.120
<v Speaker 1>rid of him and terminate his employment and claim he

109
00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:29.519
<v Speaker 1>didn't he's not owed any money. But yeah, I don't, uh,

110
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:32.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he's made more than seventy million dollars as

111
00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:36.120
<v Speaker 1>as their coach. And I know some people will say, well,

112
00:05:36.160 --> 00:05:38.480
<v Speaker 1>with that, then he should just agree to take less money,

113
00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:40.839
<v Speaker 1>Like no, I mean if he did, then you know,

114
00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:44.360
<v Speaker 1>that would really be him doing doing the school of favor.

115
00:05:44.920 --> 00:05:46.639
<v Speaker 1>And I know some will say, well, how much money

116
00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:47.879
<v Speaker 1>does he need? Like you know that that was the

117
00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:49.759
<v Speaker 1>whole thing with Stoops. That's the reason I broughtoops Ups

118
00:05:49.759 --> 00:05:51.839
<v Speaker 1>is because I just thought it was hilarious that as

119
00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:56.120
<v Speaker 1>things were really spiraling out of control for Kentucky this

120
00:05:56.160 --> 00:06:01.079
<v Speaker 1>past season, there was just like this collective feeling from

121
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:03.759
<v Speaker 1>Kentucky fans that yeah, I just I don't know, I don't.

122
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:06.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he's gonna be back. Where would he go? Like,

123
00:06:07.240 --> 00:06:09.240
<v Speaker 1>what do you mean he's not gonna be back? Like

124
00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:12.399
<v Speaker 1>you think he just wants to leave and not coach anymore.

125
00:06:12.800 --> 00:06:14.920
<v Speaker 1>Fair enough, but he's not gonna walk away from that money.

126
00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:19.319
<v Speaker 1>And with Mike Gundhy, same situation, Like I'm sure Oklahoma

127
00:06:19.319 --> 00:06:21.000
<v Speaker 1>State fans are like, oh, he's gonna do this to

128
00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:22.959
<v Speaker 1>us after he's been here this long and he's made

129
00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:25.399
<v Speaker 1>this much money and he knows that things aren't going

130
00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:28.240
<v Speaker 1>well and they need money for nil. Okay, Well, then

131
00:06:28.399 --> 00:06:30.399
<v Speaker 1>blame the person who gave him the contract, Like that's

132
00:06:30.399 --> 00:06:33.560
<v Speaker 1>what it all comes down to. So we'll see what

133
00:06:33.759 --> 00:06:37.079
<v Speaker 1>shakes out here. But geting ugly and still water.

134
00:06:37.319 --> 00:06:40.720
<v Speaker 4>Come after me, I'm a man, I'm forty.

135
00:06:41.399 --> 00:06:45.120
<v Speaker 1>There are so many layers to that rant that are

136
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:49.120
<v Speaker 1>i mean legendary, like the come after me, I'm a man,

137
00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:52.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm forty is what ninety nine point nine percent of

138
00:06:52.439 --> 00:06:56.399
<v Speaker 1>people take from that long rant. But man, there's so

139
00:06:56.480 --> 00:07:01.319
<v Speaker 1>many gems within the the whole madness of it, like, uh,

140
00:07:01.399 --> 00:07:03.120
<v Speaker 1>the you know, it's even in our intro. I don't

141
00:07:03.120 --> 00:07:04.480
<v Speaker 1>even know people know this or not. Did you know

142
00:07:04.560 --> 00:07:07.000
<v Speaker 1>that the intro of this show has clips from that rant?

143
00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:09.399
<v Speaker 3>Yes, it's literally right before he says.

144
00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:12.199
<v Speaker 1>That who's the uh, who's the kid here?

145
00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:13.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, who's the kid here?

146
00:07:14.279 --> 00:07:15.920
<v Speaker 1>Here? You kidding me? And the best part and then

147
00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:16.680
<v Speaker 1>he talks about.

148
00:07:16.519 --> 00:07:19.600
<v Speaker 2>The Jonas brothers at some point there too. I remember, yeah,

149
00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:21.800
<v Speaker 2>because he said that at all. Yeah, well, I mean

150
00:07:21.839 --> 00:07:23.800
<v Speaker 2>he uses them as like a reference because like they

151
00:07:24.040 --> 00:07:25.279
<v Speaker 2>were talking about like kids, you.

152
00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:28.600
<v Speaker 1>Know, Oh okay, well he I just remember it was

153
00:07:28.639 --> 00:07:31.079
<v Speaker 1>a I think it was a woman who was a

154
00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:35.560
<v Speaker 1>reporter and she and what's crazy is that like she

155
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:38.360
<v Speaker 1>didn't looking back, she didn't do anything that isn't done

156
00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:41.000
<v Speaker 1>every day in college sports. But at that point we

157
00:07:41.000 --> 00:07:46.079
<v Speaker 1>were super like these are kids, you know, And and

158
00:07:47.160 --> 00:07:49.600
<v Speaker 1>they still are technically actually they're not if they're eighteen,

159
00:07:49.600 --> 00:07:50.959
<v Speaker 1>they're not a kid by definition, but you know what

160
00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:52.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Like it used to be like, well, these

161
00:07:52.360 --> 00:07:54.839
<v Speaker 1>guys are out here playing, uh, working their ass off

162
00:07:54.879 --> 00:07:57.120
<v Speaker 1>like you shouldn't. Like there used to be a very

163
00:07:57.240 --> 00:07:58.920
<v Speaker 1>very clear line of like, all right, well these guys

164
00:07:58.920 --> 00:08:00.759
<v Speaker 1>aren't pros. Well, now here we in twenty twenty four,

165
00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:02.879
<v Speaker 1>about to be twenty twenty five. It is absolutely pro

166
00:08:02.920 --> 00:08:04.480
<v Speaker 1>sports now, and it's right in front of our face.

167
00:08:04.519 --> 00:08:07.639
<v Speaker 1>But he was real bothered by a column that was

168
00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:09.600
<v Speaker 1>written that didn't it wasn't personal, it was just kind

169
00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:12.279
<v Speaker 1>of acknowledging that one of their players. I guess it

170
00:08:12.319 --> 00:08:15.040
<v Speaker 1>was their quarterback like had struggled or something like that,

171
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:19.040
<v Speaker 1>and Gundy he said, who I got to read this

172
00:08:19.120 --> 00:08:22.360
<v Speaker 1>garbage and the editor who let it in there is garbage.

173
00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:24.160
<v Speaker 1>And then he went on to say, whoever wrote this

174
00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:27.240
<v Speaker 1>could not be a mother of children, and I will

175
00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:30.160
<v Speaker 1>never forget it. Jan Rome said, no, it was a

176
00:08:30.199 --> 00:08:31.759
<v Speaker 1>mother of bears, that's who wrote it. Like, what do

177
00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:34.879
<v Speaker 1>you talk like it was? It's up there. I've at

178
00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:37.039
<v Speaker 1>times wanted to find a rant that is better, but

179
00:08:37.120 --> 00:08:39.360
<v Speaker 1>that's the best of all time because there's so much

180
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:42.639
<v Speaker 1>within it that makes it great. But he's kind of

181
00:08:42.840 --> 00:08:45.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, there's a lot of people who probably follow

182
00:08:45.399 --> 00:08:49.039
<v Speaker 1>college football pretty closely that I guess are aware that,

183
00:08:49.120 --> 00:08:51.639
<v Speaker 1>like he had that epic rant many many years ago.

184
00:08:51.720 --> 00:08:54.679
<v Speaker 1>But I used to think there's no scenario that Mike

185
00:08:54.759 --> 00:08:57.360
<v Speaker 1>Gundy will come to mind and not be what you

186
00:08:57.399 --> 00:08:59.039
<v Speaker 1>think about. But I kind of feel like that's not

187
00:08:59.080 --> 00:09:01.240
<v Speaker 1>the case anymore. He had a pretty hit, a pretty

188
00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:04.720
<v Speaker 1>ugly stretch there during the pandemic, if you remember, like it.

189
00:09:04.840 --> 00:09:08.080
<v Speaker 2>Was oh yeah, the the on network or the oh

190
00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:09.960
<v Speaker 2>yeah yeah right wing.

191
00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:12.799
<v Speaker 1>And I can I can respect and that's okay, I

192
00:09:12.799 --> 00:09:16.480
<v Speaker 1>can respect, you know, somebody who's just is going to

193
00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:20.039
<v Speaker 1>tell you, tell you what they think and be honest

194
00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:21.879
<v Speaker 1>with you. But you also have to understand that in

195
00:09:21.919 --> 00:09:25.159
<v Speaker 1>your position, you can't be surprised if that backfires on you.

196
00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:28.279
<v Speaker 1>And maybe you say, well, you don't care. And if

197
00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:31.600
<v Speaker 1>that's the case, then you know, good on you for

198
00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:34.000
<v Speaker 1>not carmel people think. But it could also impact your livelihood.

199
00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:36.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he's the guy that the Big twelve media

200
00:09:36.399 --> 00:09:39.679
<v Speaker 1>days earlier this year, if you remember, I mean his

201
00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:43.080
<v Speaker 1>his again, this is a perfect example of Gundhy, My

202
00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:45.559
<v Speaker 1>Gundhy at the S at the Big twelve media day.

203
00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:47.679
<v Speaker 1>See if you can find the CLIPBOFS then I don't

204
00:09:47.679 --> 00:09:50.799
<v Speaker 1>even know how you'd reference it. But Gundhy Big twelve

205
00:09:51.080 --> 00:09:55.799
<v Speaker 1>like d Ui because he was talking at the media

206
00:09:55.879 --> 00:09:59.080
<v Speaker 1>days and Ali Gordon, their star running back who came back.

207
00:09:59.120 --> 00:10:00.519
<v Speaker 1>It was a big deal. He did not have a

208
00:10:00.519 --> 00:10:03.159
<v Speaker 1>great season and obviously they were very underwhelming, but he

209
00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:06.240
<v Speaker 1>got a DUI before the season started and Gundy said

210
00:10:06.279 --> 00:10:09.720
<v Speaker 1>he was going to discipline him but not suspend him,

211
00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:12.639
<v Speaker 1>and then he kind of just started talking and you know,

212
00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:15.519
<v Speaker 1>doing Gundy stuff, not realizing what he was actually saying.

213
00:10:15.559 --> 00:10:20.279
<v Speaker 1>But he basically said what Ali Gordon did as far

214
00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:23.360
<v Speaker 1>as you know, blowing over the legal limit, but just

215
00:10:23.399 --> 00:10:25.960
<v Speaker 1>a little bit. I mean, Gundy said, well, I've done

216
00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:28.360
<v Speaker 1>that a million times or a thousand times, whatever it

217
00:10:28.440 --> 00:10:31.200
<v Speaker 1>was like. And again I think he's being directly. I

218
00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:33.799
<v Speaker 1>think he's been absolutely honest. And in a way you're like, Okay, well,

219
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:35.200
<v Speaker 1>at least he's being honest, But you're like, did you

220
00:10:35.240 --> 00:10:37.840
<v Speaker 1>really just on live TV say that like what your

221
00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:40.279
<v Speaker 1>player got arrested for that, you know, is like a

222
00:10:40.360 --> 00:10:43.480
<v Speaker 1>clear crime that you do it all the time, like

223
00:10:44.240 --> 00:11:12.759
<v Speaker 1>good play? That wasn't it?

224
00:11:12.799 --> 00:11:14.960
<v Speaker 2>But that was no, I guess it wasn't. It was

225
00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:17.240
<v Speaker 2>just the first thing I clicked. Yeah, you got to

226
00:11:17.279 --> 00:11:19.200
<v Speaker 2>do a better job at vetting that. I guess my bad.

227
00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:22.039
<v Speaker 1>Let me see here, and it's not really worth it now,

228
00:11:22.080 --> 00:11:25.840
<v Speaker 1>But I swear it was just, you know, and I

229
00:11:25.879 --> 00:11:27.559
<v Speaker 1>thought we talked about it live on the air when

230
00:11:27.559 --> 00:11:29.600
<v Speaker 1>it had happened, because he had said it while the

231
00:11:29.639 --> 00:11:31.440
<v Speaker 1>show was going on and we weren't covering it or

232
00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:36.039
<v Speaker 1>anything like that. But you know, you know, oftentimes here

233
00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:37.919
<v Speaker 1>in fact, you never hear coaches say that I just

234
00:11:37.960 --> 00:11:40.600
<v Speaker 1>sent you the uh, I'm gonna send you the correct

235
00:11:40.639 --> 00:11:43.200
<v Speaker 1>clip here, unless, of course you're not on Why are

236
00:11:43.200 --> 00:11:46.360
<v Speaker 1>you not on here? Did you? Did you block me

237
00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:46.919
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter?

238
00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:47.600
<v Speaker 3>Did you on Twitter?

239
00:11:47.720 --> 00:11:47.879
<v Speaker 4>Name?

240
00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:50.080
<v Speaker 3>I didn't think that you'd ever find out.

241
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:50.360
<v Speaker 4>Here we go?

242
00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:50.759
<v Speaker 5>Uh?

243
00:11:50.840 --> 00:11:53.240
<v Speaker 1>I sent it to you. But it was one of

244
00:11:53.240 --> 00:11:56.240
<v Speaker 1>those things where you realized that that was very crazy

245
00:11:56.240 --> 00:11:58.919
<v Speaker 1>for a coach to say, but because the reaction was

246
00:11:58.960 --> 00:12:02.080
<v Speaker 1>going to be so consensus, it probably would die down

247
00:12:02.120 --> 00:12:05.159
<v Speaker 1>and not become a big deal. And the reaction was, well, yeah,

248
00:12:05.159 --> 00:12:07.320
<v Speaker 1>that's my Gundy. That's not at all a surprise that

249
00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:09.159
<v Speaker 1>he said that. And then it was kind of over, like,

250
00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:10.480
<v Speaker 1>what are you gonna do? Cancel him? I think if

251
00:12:10.480 --> 00:12:12.279
<v Speaker 1>he was gonna be canceled, there were some other things

252
00:12:12.279 --> 00:12:14.399
<v Speaker 1>that probably would have already led to him, you know,

253
00:12:14.679 --> 00:12:15.480
<v Speaker 1>getting canceled.

254
00:12:17.000 --> 00:13:06.440
<v Speaker 6>I got it for you now, all right, let's see.

255
00:12:45.639 --> 00:13:02.679
<v Speaker 1>I shouldn't laugh. So is that it?

256
00:13:02.879 --> 00:13:03.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

257
00:13:03.159 --> 00:13:08.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, probably done that how many times? A thousand times

258
00:13:08.559 --> 00:13:11.240
<v Speaker 1>in my life. And here's what's crazy is that I'm not,

259
00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:13.879
<v Speaker 1>by any means a Mike Gundhy fan or an apologist,

260
00:13:14.279 --> 00:13:17.159
<v Speaker 1>but there isn't There's always gonna be something regardless if

261
00:13:17.200 --> 00:13:20.159
<v Speaker 1>you're a low life human being. And I'm not saying

262
00:13:20.159 --> 00:13:23.360
<v Speaker 1>that he is. But I think he is very directly

263
00:13:23.440 --> 00:13:25.200
<v Speaker 1>honest and what you see is what you get. He's

264
00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:28.399
<v Speaker 1>completely transparent. You're never gonna get any sugarcoating of an answer.

265
00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:31.799
<v Speaker 1>And I still think that's worth something. I mean, again,

266
00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:33.480
<v Speaker 1>there are people who are like that that are probably

267
00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:36.039
<v Speaker 1>awful human beings. And I'm not saying that that that's

268
00:13:36.080 --> 00:13:39.200
<v Speaker 1>such a quality that can that can you know that

269
00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:41.879
<v Speaker 1>can overcome somebody being a terrible, despicable human And again

270
00:13:41.919 --> 00:13:44.440
<v Speaker 1>not saying Gundy is that. But I think it never

271
00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:46.679
<v Speaker 1>became like a big deal because like, yeah, it's Gundhy,

272
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:48.440
<v Speaker 1>what do you expect, Like nobody's surprised at all that

273
00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:51.120
<v Speaker 1>he said he's probably driven a thousand times where if

274
00:13:51.120 --> 00:13:52.759
<v Speaker 1>he got pulled over, he'd get a dui and a

275
00:13:52.759 --> 00:13:54.679
<v Speaker 1>lot of people listening right now probably done the same

276
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:55.240
<v Speaker 1>thing and know it.

277
00:13:55.320 --> 00:13:57.120
<v Speaker 3>So it don't look at me.

278
00:13:57.279 --> 00:13:59.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, in a moment, it felt like, oh, this is

279
00:13:59.480 --> 00:14:01.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna be bad, and then you're like, actually, probably not,

280
00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:03.480
<v Speaker 1>because you know, one, it's Gundy and if anything, he's

281
00:14:03.559 --> 00:14:04.159
<v Speaker 1>just being honest.

282
00:14:04.360 --> 00:14:05.840
<v Speaker 2>I guess that's a good thing to look forward to

283
00:14:05.919 --> 00:14:08.279
<v Speaker 2>whenever you turn forty, Like that's the next milestone as

284
00:14:08.320 --> 00:14:12.159
<v Speaker 2>you can finally play that and feel one with Mike Gundy.

285
00:14:12.200 --> 00:14:14.399
<v Speaker 3>I'm a man, I'm forty. That's like it's a.

286
00:14:14.519 --> 00:14:16.720
<v Speaker 1>Far away from it obviously there before too long.

287
00:14:16.759 --> 00:14:19.080
<v Speaker 2>It's not a just like a year older than me,

288
00:14:19.240 --> 00:14:23.879
<v Speaker 2>right yeah, sure, yeah, yeah, yeah. You don't look at

289
00:14:23.960 --> 00:14:26.720
<v Speaker 2>day over twenty nine one. No, I'm thirty one, but

290
00:14:27.000 --> 00:14:29.200
<v Speaker 2>yeah I'm a lot on you age very well. Oh,

291
00:14:29.200 --> 00:14:30.799
<v Speaker 2>thank you, just brown nosing a little bit.

292
00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:32.480
<v Speaker 1>Really appreciate that, man, really appreciate it.

293
00:14:32.519 --> 00:14:33.919
<v Speaker 3>You definitely do it works, it.

294
00:14:33.879 --> 00:14:35.120
<v Speaker 1>Works, all right. We gotta get to a quick break.

295
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:36.879
<v Speaker 1>We'll come back on the other side, talk about these

296
00:14:36.879 --> 00:14:39.720
<v Speaker 1>conference championship games this weekend, and then we will talk

309
00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:11.559
<v Speaker 5>Uh, yes, sir, I did. I had a great Thanksgiving.

310
00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:15.000
<v Speaker 5>We had a little had to do some shifting around.

311
00:15:15.279 --> 00:15:17.559
<v Speaker 5>We ended up hosting, but uh it turned out really

312
00:15:17.600 --> 00:15:20.000
<v Speaker 5>well and you know ate too much.

313
00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:21.879
<v Speaker 4>But how about yourself?

314
00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:24.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we we had a good time. You said you

315
00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:26.639
<v Speaker 1>ended up hosting. I got the sense that maybe you

316
00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:28.799
<v Speaker 1>weren't expecting to host, but you had to, so a

317
00:15:28.799 --> 00:15:31.679
<v Speaker 1>little bit of a last minute shuffling up the schedule.

318
00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:34.960
<v Speaker 4>It sounds like, yeah, I wouldn't say we had to.

319
00:15:35.120 --> 00:15:38.120
<v Speaker 5>We just had some circumstances where my mother in law

320
00:15:38.200 --> 00:15:39.320
<v Speaker 5>usually hosts.

321
00:15:38.960 --> 00:15:40.399
<v Speaker 4>And out of town, and.

322
00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:43.840
<v Speaker 5>You know, my just to make a long story short,

323
00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:47.159
<v Speaker 5>she was having to help take care of my niece

324
00:15:47.159 --> 00:15:50.159
<v Speaker 5>and nephew and they're really young and became more stressful.

325
00:15:50.200 --> 00:15:52.720
<v Speaker 4>So we just we said, look, we'll we'll do it here.

326
00:15:52.919 --> 00:15:56.159
<v Speaker 5>Just bring the kids to us and we'll have everybody

327
00:15:56.200 --> 00:15:58.840
<v Speaker 5>come over to our house. And you know, because most

328
00:15:58.879 --> 00:16:00.759
<v Speaker 5>of us have to travel to their place anyway, so

329
00:16:01.399 --> 00:16:04.080
<v Speaker 5>uh it worked out and took some of the stress

330
00:16:04.159 --> 00:16:04.559
<v Speaker 5>off of her.

331
00:16:04.879 --> 00:16:06.600
<v Speaker 1>Well good, I'm glad that it worked out because I

332
00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:10.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't mind hosting stuff at our house. But my wife,

333
00:16:10.480 --> 00:16:13.480
<v Speaker 1>she you know, she she doesn't mind. Well, I say

334
00:16:13.519 --> 00:16:15.440
<v Speaker 1>she doesn't mind. She stresses out about it a lot,

335
00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:16.840
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, it's not that big of a deal,

336
00:16:16.840 --> 00:16:17.919
<v Speaker 1>like we don't have to do that much. And then

337
00:16:17.960 --> 00:16:19.559
<v Speaker 1>she tells me all the work that she puts into it,

338
00:16:19.559 --> 00:16:20.679
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, okay, well, I guess there is a

339
00:16:20.679 --> 00:16:22.399
<v Speaker 1>lot of work, but it'll be fine, it'll all work out.

340
00:16:22.440 --> 00:16:25.240
<v Speaker 1>But where us, we rarely host. What we do, we

341
00:16:25.279 --> 00:16:28.120
<v Speaker 1>actually do a Christmas hosting each each year from my

342
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:30.799
<v Speaker 1>side of the family. And every year she's always worried

343
00:16:30.799 --> 00:16:32.799
<v Speaker 1>at something, and I'm like, what what, what would go wrong?

344
00:16:32.879 --> 00:16:34.679
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be family, We're gonna have fun, like it's

345
00:16:34.720 --> 00:16:38.399
<v Speaker 1>gonna be great. So I always tell her that's it's unexpected,

346
00:16:38.519 --> 00:16:41.120
<v Speaker 1>it's unnecessary worry and stress because it's all gonna it's

347
00:16:41.159 --> 00:16:43.279
<v Speaker 1>all gonna work out. So glad you had to go.

348
00:16:43.399 --> 00:16:45.960
<v Speaker 5>And then I'm all and they're always stressed about and

349
00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:48.000
<v Speaker 5>I'm like, these people come over all the time.

350
00:16:48.120 --> 00:16:50.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I don't know why the house has to look

351
00:16:50.120 --> 00:16:50.639
<v Speaker 4>any different.

352
00:16:50.799 --> 00:16:54.440
<v Speaker 5>Yes, we're on the same page, man, We were absolutely

353
00:16:54.519 --> 00:16:55.799
<v Speaker 5>on the same page, all right.

354
00:16:55.840 --> 00:16:58.200
<v Speaker 1>So when it comes to Louisville basketball, man, it has

355
00:16:58.240 --> 00:17:00.679
<v Speaker 1>been just a tough go when it comes to injuries.

356
00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:04.880
<v Speaker 1>They've now lost both case and Pryor and Corain Johnson

357
00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:09.720
<v Speaker 1>for the entire year. Kidder Trey Ore is healing and

358
00:17:10.039 --> 00:17:12.079
<v Speaker 1>it's expected to be back at some point. And then

359
00:17:12.200 --> 00:17:15.200
<v Speaker 1>there are two players that transferred in to play for

360
00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:17.200
<v Speaker 1>the program this year with the expectation of not playing

361
00:17:17.240 --> 00:17:20.400
<v Speaker 1>at all because they were coming off of injuries. I

362
00:17:20.440 --> 00:17:23.359
<v Speaker 1>guess I'll start with with Krain Johnson. He was dealing

363
00:17:23.359 --> 00:17:25.440
<v Speaker 1>with a shoulder injury. It sounds like and I think

364
00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:27.519
<v Speaker 1>last week we had heard from Pat Kelsey that he

365
00:17:27.640 --> 00:17:30.519
<v Speaker 1>was seeking a second opinion, and then I guess he

366
00:17:30.599 --> 00:17:32.640
<v Speaker 1>got that second opinion and it led to him deciding

367
00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:34.920
<v Speaker 1>to go ahead and set out the rest of the season,

368
00:17:35.000 --> 00:17:38.480
<v Speaker 1>have a procedure and take a medical red shirt. When

369
00:17:38.480 --> 00:17:41.359
<v Speaker 1>you hear that someone is getting a second opinion, I

370
00:17:41.400 --> 00:17:43.720
<v Speaker 1>guess it could depend upon what the injury is. But

371
00:17:43.880 --> 00:17:46.599
<v Speaker 1>what is in your profession, what does that usually lead

372
00:17:46.640 --> 00:17:49.279
<v Speaker 1>you to believe if they're seeking a second opinion, I mean,

373
00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:50.880
<v Speaker 1>what do I know? But I feel like it means

374
00:17:50.880 --> 00:17:52.319
<v Speaker 1>they didn't like the first opinion and they're going to

375
00:17:52.359 --> 00:17:54.359
<v Speaker 1>try to see if they get better news from somebody else.

376
00:17:55.720 --> 00:17:56.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I'll start backwards.

377
00:17:56.960 --> 00:18:00.519
<v Speaker 5>I think that everybody should always get multiple pinions. I

378
00:18:00.519 --> 00:18:03.400
<v Speaker 5>don't think it means you don't love or like what

379
00:18:03.559 --> 00:18:04.960
<v Speaker 5>the original opinion was.

380
00:18:05.400 --> 00:18:07.119
<v Speaker 4>H I mean, it could be, but it doesn't always

381
00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:07.759
<v Speaker 4>have to be that way.

382
00:18:07.799 --> 00:18:10.839
<v Speaker 5>It's just to make sure that you have all the

383
00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:15.240
<v Speaker 5>information and that you know because different different providers may

384
00:18:15.240 --> 00:18:17.200
<v Speaker 5>approach things a little differently, and you got to make

385
00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:19.920
<v Speaker 5>sure it matches up not just what the surgery is,

386
00:18:19.920 --> 00:18:22.119
<v Speaker 5>but does it match up what the expectations and the

387
00:18:22.119 --> 00:18:25.160
<v Speaker 5>goals are of that individual. So, you know, for Karn Johnson,

388
00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:27.119
<v Speaker 5>I mean, he's a high level basketball player, He's got

389
00:18:27.160 --> 00:18:27.720
<v Speaker 5>a future.

390
00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:29.720
<v Speaker 4>Ahead of him. You know, how does.

391
00:18:29.720 --> 00:18:32.319
<v Speaker 5>This particular if he has to have surgery, obviously, like

392
00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:34.680
<v Speaker 5>what they're going to do or how they're going to

393
00:18:34.720 --> 00:18:37.200
<v Speaker 5>do it, how innovative it is, what's the recovery like,

394
00:18:38.559 --> 00:18:40.400
<v Speaker 5>you know, what's that going to mean for his career?

395
00:18:41.279 --> 00:18:43.200
<v Speaker 5>And you know, and those are things that he needs

396
00:18:43.240 --> 00:18:46.319
<v Speaker 5>to take into account and you know, getting more opinions.

397
00:18:46.400 --> 00:18:48.279
<v Speaker 5>You know, the nice thing is if they're matching up,

398
00:18:48.319 --> 00:18:51.599
<v Speaker 5>that usually is telling. If they don't match up, now

399
00:18:51.640 --> 00:18:54.960
<v Speaker 5>you got to pick which one is the least least

400
00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:58.079
<v Speaker 5>of you know, that has the least amount of resistance

401
00:18:59.160 --> 00:19:03.759
<v Speaker 5>that where you know, maybe it or or the best.

402
00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:05.400
<v Speaker 4>Uh impact on your future uh and.

403
00:19:05.279 --> 00:19:07.440
<v Speaker 5>Your ability to come back in a timely manner in

404
00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:09.960
<v Speaker 5>order to perform at the level you're accustomed to. So

405
00:19:10.519 --> 00:19:13.640
<v Speaker 5>I think that's the way, you know, I look at opinions.

406
00:19:14.279 --> 00:19:16.440
<v Speaker 5>You know, I encourage everybody. I encourage people if they

407
00:19:16.440 --> 00:19:18.119
<v Speaker 5>don't like what I have to say, or maybe if

408
00:19:18.119 --> 00:19:20.720
<v Speaker 5>they don't like it, but if they need to hear

409
00:19:20.759 --> 00:19:22.599
<v Speaker 5>it from somebody else, they're welcome to go to get

410
00:19:22.640 --> 00:19:26.440
<v Speaker 5>another opinion as well. So, but I think that he

411
00:19:27.480 --> 00:19:29.599
<v Speaker 5>was looking at where he is in the season. I

412
00:19:29.640 --> 00:19:33.799
<v Speaker 5>know it's early for us, but for if a procedure

413
00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:36.960
<v Speaker 5>needed to be done, and how much that could impact

414
00:19:37.480 --> 00:19:38.160
<v Speaker 5>his future.

415
00:19:38.359 --> 00:19:40.519
<v Speaker 4>What I mean by that is the off season and

416
00:19:40.559 --> 00:19:41.359
<v Speaker 4>the next season.

417
00:19:42.160 --> 00:19:44.519
<v Speaker 5>You know, sometimes it's better to go ahead and pull

418
00:19:44.559 --> 00:19:49.240
<v Speaker 5>the trigger then to prolong something that's probably inevitable.

419
00:19:50.559 --> 00:19:53.839
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And and I don't know how it happened in practice,

420
00:19:53.839 --> 00:19:55.759
<v Speaker 1>that's not information that we're in you know that we

421
00:19:55.839 --> 00:19:58.319
<v Speaker 1>get and honestly we're not We're not owed that information

422
00:19:58.440 --> 00:20:01.160
<v Speaker 1>at all. But I I feel like the shoulder injuries

423
00:20:01.200 --> 00:20:04.160
<v Speaker 1>have become maybe not super common in basketball, but more

424
00:20:04.200 --> 00:20:06.960
<v Speaker 1>common than I would than I would expect.

425
00:20:07.880 --> 00:20:11.359
<v Speaker 5>Very physical, you know, a lot of more violent, you know,

426
00:20:13.319 --> 00:20:14.759
<v Speaker 5>with the lack of a better term, like you know,

427
00:20:14.759 --> 00:20:16.960
<v Speaker 5>when somebody's going up for a rebound's contested, I mean,

428
00:20:16.960 --> 00:20:19.720
<v Speaker 5>there's a lot more force behind that than one would realize.

429
00:20:19.880 --> 00:20:23.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think when you consider contact that's made in basketball,

430
00:20:23.200 --> 00:20:24.720
<v Speaker 1>it could be different. There's a lot of different ways,

431
00:20:24.720 --> 00:20:26.880
<v Speaker 1>but I feel like that's one of the more common

432
00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:29.319
<v Speaker 1>ways that you do, in fact make contact with with somebody.

433
00:20:29.400 --> 00:20:32.000
<v Speaker 1>Is whenever you're going to the rim or you're guarding somebody,

434
00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:34.680
<v Speaker 1>you're getting a rebound and and that shoulder can can

435
00:20:34.680 --> 00:20:37.480
<v Speaker 1>can hit somebody and you know exposed. Yeah, no doubt.

436
00:20:37.519 --> 00:20:39.079
<v Speaker 4>I mean I have a I have a guy, I

437
00:20:39.079 --> 00:20:39.960
<v Speaker 4>mean have athletes.

438
00:20:40.160 --> 00:20:45.519
<v Speaker 5>He plays in the NBA and he dislocated his shoulder.

439
00:20:45.880 --> 00:20:48.799
<v Speaker 4>Uh you know in the previous Well he's not he's

440
00:20:48.799 --> 00:20:49.720
<v Speaker 4>in the G League right now.

441
00:20:49.720 --> 00:20:52.039
<v Speaker 5>But either way, he uh, you know, he had a

442
00:20:52.039 --> 00:20:55.240
<v Speaker 5>dislocated shoulder and it was playing basketball and you know,

443
00:20:55.319 --> 00:20:57.799
<v Speaker 5>going up for a rebound, contested rebound. So you know,

444
00:20:57.880 --> 00:21:01.480
<v Speaker 5>those things happen, and there's a lot of we always

445
00:21:01.519 --> 00:21:04.559
<v Speaker 5>think of football, but you know, very very physical sports

446
00:21:04.799 --> 00:21:08.079
<v Speaker 5>and basketball is very physical, and you know, and so, yeah,

447
00:21:08.119 --> 00:21:10.599
<v Speaker 5>shoulder injuries are probably more common than you realize.

448
00:21:10.960 --> 00:21:13.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, case and Pryor's injuries is an a c L.

449
00:21:13.519 --> 00:21:15.880
<v Speaker 1>And obviously that that those are things and Pat Kelsey

450
00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:18.359
<v Speaker 1>talked about this earlier this week. These these are injuries

451
00:21:18.359 --> 00:21:20.680
<v Speaker 1>that years ago it used to be okay, you know,

452
00:21:20.680 --> 00:21:22.720
<v Speaker 1>we'll see how he recovers, and maybe the timeline was

453
00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:24.359
<v Speaker 1>a little bit longer. Obviously it's not going to play

454
00:21:24.359 --> 00:21:26.279
<v Speaker 1>this year, but no doubt he can recover and get

455
00:21:26.279 --> 00:21:28.519
<v Speaker 1>back to being a really, really good basketball player. I'm

456
00:21:28.559 --> 00:21:30.720
<v Speaker 1>just curious if you saw the injury took place or not,

457
00:21:30.839 --> 00:21:33.240
<v Speaker 1>and if so, it sounded like everybody who did see it,

458
00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:35.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, without having the uh, you know, the knowledge

459
00:21:35.880 --> 00:21:37.319
<v Speaker 1>that you would have in your position, that it just

460
00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:39.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of seemed like that's exactly what it was. And

461
00:21:39.039 --> 00:21:40.880
<v Speaker 1>sure enough, we got the confirmation earlier this week.

462
00:21:40.880 --> 00:21:44.000
<v Speaker 4>It was the a c l Oh, yeah, I remember

463
00:21:44.079 --> 00:21:44.599
<v Speaker 4>I text you.

464
00:21:44.480 --> 00:21:46.319
<v Speaker 5>You may have been a few more years in than

465
00:21:46.720 --> 00:21:49.599
<v Speaker 5>you wanted to be, but uh you uh.

466
00:21:49.079 --> 00:21:49.759
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, text you.

467
00:21:50.119 --> 00:21:51.400
<v Speaker 1>Let's try to make it seem organic.

468
00:21:52.839 --> 00:21:57.079
<v Speaker 4>Oh sorry, you're good. Yeah.

469
00:21:57.279 --> 00:21:59.200
<v Speaker 5>I was watching the game and uh, you know I

470
00:21:59.240 --> 00:22:03.440
<v Speaker 5>text Larry too, and uh immediately he was there. Uh

471
00:22:03.480 --> 00:22:06.880
<v Speaker 5>and so yeah, it was you know, those things happen.

472
00:22:06.960 --> 00:22:10.359
<v Speaker 5>It's it's a contact injury. There's nothing you could have done,

473
00:22:10.920 --> 00:22:14.119
<v Speaker 5>and it's and it sucks. I will say that I

474
00:22:14.119 --> 00:22:16.559
<v Speaker 5>would rather that be the case if it's gonna happen

475
00:22:16.599 --> 00:22:19.240
<v Speaker 5>than a non contact injury, because usually when when you

476
00:22:19.279 --> 00:22:24.400
<v Speaker 5>have non contact ACL injuries, there's other things going on

477
00:22:24.559 --> 00:22:26.839
<v Speaker 5>with that athlete that could have led to that. I'm

478
00:22:26.880 --> 00:22:29.279
<v Speaker 5>not saying that's always the case, but that's generally things

479
00:22:29.319 --> 00:22:31.680
<v Speaker 5>that we go ahead and start thinking about as in

480
00:22:31.839 --> 00:22:34.880
<v Speaker 5>what we do in my what area of medicine I'm

481
00:22:34.920 --> 00:22:37.759
<v Speaker 5>in is it's like, oh man, that means that you

482
00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:39.720
<v Speaker 5>know he basically you know.

483
00:22:39.759 --> 00:22:40.599
<v Speaker 4>Decelerator on.

484
00:22:40.720 --> 00:22:42.920
<v Speaker 5>There could be some impairents somewhere and that those are

485
00:22:43.000 --> 00:22:45.279
<v Speaker 5>usually some thing that would draw a little bit more concerned.

486
00:22:45.359 --> 00:22:48.839
<v Speaker 5>This is you know, as you know, somebody rolled into

487
00:22:48.880 --> 00:22:51.720
<v Speaker 5>his knee and it hyper extended with a lot of force,

488
00:22:51.799 --> 00:22:53.960
<v Speaker 5>and that's unfortunate.

489
00:22:54.759 --> 00:22:55.400
<v Speaker 3>Yep, no doubt.

490
00:22:55.480 --> 00:22:58.319
<v Speaker 1>I hated for him too, because he's I mean, he's

491
00:22:58.319 --> 00:22:59.839
<v Speaker 1>not only a big piece of the team, but he

492
00:23:00.319 --> 00:23:02.640
<v Speaker 1>it's not just the production on the on the stat sheet,

493
00:23:02.640 --> 00:23:05.599
<v Speaker 1>it's the energy, the enthusiasm. And I'm hopeful that despite

494
00:23:05.680 --> 00:23:07.440
<v Speaker 1>him being you know, not able to play, he can

495
00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:09.240
<v Speaker 1>still bring that on the sidelines and on the bench

496
00:23:09.319 --> 00:23:11.839
<v Speaker 1>because they're they're certainly gonna need it. Now there's two

497
00:23:11.880 --> 00:23:15.079
<v Speaker 1>players that have transferred into Louisville that we're dealing with injuries.

498
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Kobe Rodgers suffered a knee injury last year in the

499
00:23:19.119 --> 00:23:21.240
<v Speaker 1>last game for Charleston when they played Alabama and the

500
00:23:21.279 --> 00:23:24.240
<v Speaker 1>NSAA tournament, so he was not expected to play at

501
00:23:24.240 --> 00:23:26.960
<v Speaker 1>all this year. But Ali Khalifa, you know, I thought

502
00:23:27.000 --> 00:23:28.920
<v Speaker 1>Pat Kelsey when when he was asked about, you know,

503
00:23:28.920 --> 00:23:32.000
<v Speaker 1>could there be any chance those guys recover and can play,

504
00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:34.400
<v Speaker 1>he was very true, And I find this to be

505
00:23:34.440 --> 00:23:38.160
<v Speaker 1>pretty refreshing. He is going to tell you, hey, you

506
00:23:38.200 --> 00:23:40.440
<v Speaker 1>need to talk to the professionals, you know, to Kate

507
00:23:40.480 --> 00:23:42.440
<v Speaker 1>the Great as he calls her, the team trainer, because

508
00:23:42.480 --> 00:23:44.119
<v Speaker 1>he's not going to really get into the weeds and

509
00:23:44.160 --> 00:23:46.759
<v Speaker 1>act like he has any involvement or knowledge of it,

510
00:23:46.799 --> 00:23:49.240
<v Speaker 1>which is the truth. But you know those guys, they

511
00:23:49.279 --> 00:23:51.119
<v Speaker 1>weren't expected to play this year at all, and I

512
00:23:51.640 --> 00:23:53.599
<v Speaker 1>think he kind of confirmed, Yeah, that's not even a

513
00:23:53.640 --> 00:23:55.759
<v Speaker 1>thought in our mind that eventually we'll be able to

514
00:23:55.799 --> 00:23:58.559
<v Speaker 1>have more depth because these guys will reverse their plan

515
00:23:58.640 --> 00:24:01.480
<v Speaker 1>and play this year. But when it Khalifa, I found

516
00:24:01.519 --> 00:24:03.799
<v Speaker 1>a quote from when he committed to Louisville because I

517
00:24:03.799 --> 00:24:05.559
<v Speaker 1>don't I mean, he played last year for Mark pop

518
00:24:05.640 --> 00:24:08.519
<v Speaker 1>at BYU and I guess he was banged up but

519
00:24:08.559 --> 00:24:11.160
<v Speaker 1>he still played. But after he committed, this was the quot.

520
00:24:11.160 --> 00:24:12.720
<v Speaker 1>It said, I just had a scope in my knee

521
00:24:12.720 --> 00:24:14.480
<v Speaker 1>to see what was going on. I'm just waiting to

522
00:24:14.519 --> 00:24:16.440
<v Speaker 1>get there. We showed the doctors the images and everything,

523
00:24:16.480 --> 00:24:18.319
<v Speaker 1>and they told me to do the surgery, but the

524
00:24:18.359 --> 00:24:20.319
<v Speaker 1>recovery time is long, so I won't be able to

525
00:24:20.319 --> 00:24:23.920
<v Speaker 1>play next season. So it sounds like the surgery was

526
00:24:23.960 --> 00:24:27.000
<v Speaker 1>something that like was maybe not for sure going to happen,

527
00:24:27.039 --> 00:24:29.680
<v Speaker 1>but then he got he got guidance from from from

528
00:24:29.960 --> 00:24:31.680
<v Speaker 1>doctors and they said you should probably go ahead and

529
00:24:31.720 --> 00:24:33.960
<v Speaker 1>have the surgery take a year off and get better.

530
00:24:34.880 --> 00:24:37.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, just how common is it for somebody to

531
00:24:37.759 --> 00:24:39.599
<v Speaker 1>really not know that they need to have a surgery

532
00:24:39.640 --> 00:24:42.160
<v Speaker 1>to get healthy, because again, he played for the majority

533
00:24:42.160 --> 00:24:43.720
<v Speaker 1>of the season last year at BYU, but it sounds

534
00:24:43.759 --> 00:24:44.359
<v Speaker 1>like he played hurt.

535
00:24:45.640 --> 00:24:52.359
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, this is most likely cartilage issues on the joint

536
00:24:52.400 --> 00:24:56.279
<v Speaker 5>surface and so different than like a ligament tear.

537
00:24:56.200 --> 00:24:58.319
<v Speaker 4>Which basically his knee's gonna like you know.

538
00:24:58.680 --> 00:25:04.599
<v Speaker 5>With Casin, his knee's gonna be too unstable if in basketball,

539
00:25:04.680 --> 00:25:07.319
<v Speaker 5>especially for him to come back with a torn acl right,

540
00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:09.400
<v Speaker 5>So yeah, he's got to have that reconstructed.

541
00:25:09.920 --> 00:25:10.200
<v Speaker 4>Uh.

542
00:25:10.240 --> 00:25:13.960
<v Speaker 5>In Khalifa's situation, it tells me that the structure of

543
00:25:14.000 --> 00:25:16.640
<v Speaker 5>the knee is probably good, like he could play, He

544
00:25:16.640 --> 00:25:17.400
<v Speaker 5>could play through it.

545
00:25:17.400 --> 00:25:18.880
<v Speaker 4>He's not unstable.

546
00:25:19.359 --> 00:25:23.839
<v Speaker 5>He's gonna have some discomfort, but the cartilage on the

547
00:25:23.880 --> 00:25:27.279
<v Speaker 5>surface of the bone is probably damaged and that it's

548
00:25:27.319 --> 00:25:29.920
<v Speaker 5>like all right if you and these are really fragile

549
00:25:29.960 --> 00:25:34.240
<v Speaker 5>surgeries because of the a lot of times they're they're

550
00:25:34.240 --> 00:25:38.079
<v Speaker 5>trying to take carlage from somewhere else and implant in

551
00:25:38.119 --> 00:25:41.440
<v Speaker 5>that area. So it's very fragile. If he were to

552
00:25:41.440 --> 00:25:43.200
<v Speaker 5>try to go play, it takes a long time for

553
00:25:43.279 --> 00:25:45.559
<v Speaker 5>that to embed, especially if it's going to be successful.

554
00:25:46.079 --> 00:25:48.200
<v Speaker 5>So that's where I think that.

555
00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:50.440
<v Speaker 1>Makes total sense actually as far as him being able

556
00:25:50.480 --> 00:25:52.359
<v Speaker 1>to play on it, but then still knowing like, hey,

557
00:25:52.359 --> 00:25:54.519
<v Speaker 1>there's some that you're you're you're probably still dealing with

558
00:25:54.559 --> 00:25:56.559
<v Speaker 1>some pain. You're probably not at one hundred percent because

559
00:25:56.559 --> 00:25:58.480
<v Speaker 1>of this, So yeah, I mean it was probably. I

560
00:25:58.480 --> 00:26:01.359
<v Speaker 1>mean also six eleven, two seventy five, I mean, is

561
00:26:01.400 --> 00:26:03.640
<v Speaker 1>that maybe the frame when somebody for somebody that could

562
00:26:03.640 --> 00:26:05.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I guess you could have that same issue

563
00:26:05.160 --> 00:26:07.200
<v Speaker 1>that he has regardless of your size. But you know,

564
00:26:07.240 --> 00:26:10.039
<v Speaker 1>he's a rare player with six eleven two seventy five,

565
00:26:10.079 --> 00:26:12.119
<v Speaker 1>a guy who plays ale perimeter despite being so big.

566
00:26:13.240 --> 00:26:16.039
<v Speaker 4>Well he's a big dude, and there's some red flags.

567
00:26:16.240 --> 00:26:18.039
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I wouldn't want, you know, I think he

568
00:26:18.079 --> 00:26:20.720
<v Speaker 5>may end up having a great career and and and

569
00:26:20.799 --> 00:26:24.000
<v Speaker 5>a lot of the uh innovations have changed around surgeries.

570
00:26:24.000 --> 00:26:25.400
<v Speaker 4>But I mean think about Greg Odin.

571
00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:28.599
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, you know he had different surgeries like this, and

572
00:26:29.440 --> 00:26:31.759
<v Speaker 5>you know that's it just it was never easy.

573
00:26:31.799 --> 00:26:34.079
<v Speaker 4>He was a huge man. It was really difficult for

574
00:26:34.160 --> 00:26:35.680
<v Speaker 4>him to come back from. Now that's that.

575
00:26:35.759 --> 00:26:38.000
<v Speaker 5>Was years ago, but you know, those are things that

576
00:26:38.039 --> 00:26:40.279
<v Speaker 5>start to creep into your head, like you know, once

577
00:26:40.319 --> 00:26:43.319
<v Speaker 5>you start down this path, and there's differencing opinions. Obviously,

578
00:26:43.359 --> 00:26:45.960
<v Speaker 5>I don't know anything about his case, nor would I

579
00:26:46.000 --> 00:26:49.599
<v Speaker 5>want to make assumptions. But you know, some surgeons may say,

580
00:26:49.599 --> 00:26:52.119
<v Speaker 5>you know what man like it is, what's going to be? Uh,

581
00:26:52.519 --> 00:26:54.400
<v Speaker 5>you know, this is what you're gonna deal with. You

582
00:26:54.440 --> 00:26:55.920
<v Speaker 5>played well, you played at a high level.

583
00:26:56.319 --> 00:26:58.200
<v Speaker 4>I would worry about this when your career is over.

584
00:26:58.279 --> 00:26:59.960
<v Speaker 5>I mean there's yeah, you know, there's a lot of

585
00:27:00.119 --> 00:27:01.960
<v Speaker 5>different you know, I deal with a lot of soccer

586
00:27:01.960 --> 00:27:03.799
<v Speaker 5>players and they have similar things in their foot and

587
00:27:03.839 --> 00:27:06.440
<v Speaker 5>ankle and and some surgeons will say you need to

588
00:27:06.480 --> 00:27:08.279
<v Speaker 5>go ahead and do something for it. Some will say,

589
00:27:08.799 --> 00:27:10.920
<v Speaker 5>you know it is gonna be what it's me if

590
00:27:10.920 --> 00:27:12.359
<v Speaker 5>you can play at high level, he might as well

591
00:27:12.359 --> 00:27:14.240
<v Speaker 5>just weight. You're not necessarily gonna make it worse. So

592
00:27:14.839 --> 00:27:17.440
<v Speaker 5>I think that that's just I guess his case is different,

593
00:27:17.480 --> 00:27:19.119
<v Speaker 5>and those are choices he's gonna have to make.

594
00:27:20.440 --> 00:27:20.640
<v Speaker 4>You know.

595
00:27:20.680 --> 00:27:22.839
<v Speaker 5>The nice thing is a lot of times there's not

596
00:27:22.920 --> 00:27:25.559
<v Speaker 5>a ton of structural damage. What I mean by that

597
00:27:25.720 --> 00:27:29.119
<v Speaker 5>is that the joints otherwise stable, which is a good thing.

598
00:27:29.200 --> 00:27:30.000
<v Speaker 4>And that's why.

599
00:27:29.880 --> 00:27:32.759
<v Speaker 1>He could have technically played before having the operation right,

600
00:27:32.839 --> 00:27:34.559
<v Speaker 1>Like he probably wouldn't have been one hundred percent. He

601
00:27:34.599 --> 00:27:37.440
<v Speaker 1>would have been paid absolutely now.

602
00:27:37.640 --> 00:27:39.799
<v Speaker 5>And that's different than saying, like a meniscus there, which

603
00:27:39.960 --> 00:27:41.359
<v Speaker 5>you know people read about all the time.

604
00:27:41.759 --> 00:27:43.799
<v Speaker 4>The reason that can become a problem. You can play

605
00:27:43.799 --> 00:27:46.519
<v Speaker 4>with those two. But if it if it.

606
00:27:46.039 --> 00:27:49.039
<v Speaker 5>Pulls up off, like the meniscus, portion of the mescus

607
00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:52.119
<v Speaker 5>pulls off, it's like putting a putting like a rod

608
00:27:52.160 --> 00:27:55.079
<v Speaker 5>and a spoke, right, it'll it'll impact the ability of.

609
00:27:55.039 --> 00:27:57.559
<v Speaker 4>The joint to move. So you got to go in

610
00:27:57.640 --> 00:27:59.440
<v Speaker 4>and clean that out so the joint can move again.

611
00:28:00.680 --> 00:28:01.319
<v Speaker 4>This is different.

612
00:28:01.400 --> 00:28:03.839
<v Speaker 5>This is the actual surface of the bone, and so

613
00:28:04.160 --> 00:28:07.279
<v Speaker 5>you know they're just trying to maintain as normal and

614
00:28:07.680 --> 00:28:11.920
<v Speaker 5>healthy amount of cartilage as they possibly can because you know,

615
00:28:12.039 --> 00:28:14.920
<v Speaker 5>he's what twenty one years old, maybe I don't know

616
00:28:14.960 --> 00:28:16.119
<v Speaker 5>how old he is, but you know he's got a

617
00:28:16.119 --> 00:28:18.039
<v Speaker 5>long life ahead of him here, maybe a career. So

618
00:28:18.319 --> 00:28:21.680
<v Speaker 5>they're trying to preserve as much normal, healthy tissue as

619
00:28:21.680 --> 00:28:24.839
<v Speaker 5>they can. And so that's where some of these decisions

620
00:28:24.839 --> 00:28:25.200
<v Speaker 5>are made.

621
00:28:25.920 --> 00:28:28.440
<v Speaker 1>Makes sense. Eric is always I appreciate you making time

622
00:28:28.480 --> 00:28:31.279
<v Speaker 1>for us. Enjoy your weekend and we will talk soon.

623
00:28:32.559 --> 00:28:34.039
<v Speaker 4>Awesome, man, you have a good weekend too.

624
00:28:34.200 --> 00:28:36.920
<v Speaker 1>Take care. That's doctor Eric McElroy from pro Rea Physical Therapy.

625
00:28:37.240 --> 00:28:39.880
<v Speaker 1>Really informative stuff there. When it comes to these injuries.

626
00:28:39.880 --> 00:28:41.920
<v Speaker 1>It's not fun to talk about injuries, you know, when

627
00:28:41.920 --> 00:28:45.279
<v Speaker 1>anybody getting hurt, and the Louisville Cardinals are dealing with

628
00:28:45.279 --> 00:28:48.720
<v Speaker 1>some big time injuries on the basketball side. But you know,

629
00:28:48.759 --> 00:28:50.359
<v Speaker 1>I still again, we'll talk about it a lot more

630
00:28:50.359 --> 00:28:52.880
<v Speaker 1>than the five o'clock hour, but I'm going to make

631
00:28:52.920 --> 00:28:56.240
<v Speaker 1>it a point in this commercial break to try to

632
00:28:56.279 --> 00:28:57.920
<v Speaker 1>get some good energy going because I don't I mean,

633
00:28:57.960 --> 00:28:59.960
<v Speaker 1>you got do coming in a week ago. We felt

634
00:29:00.119 --> 00:29:01.920
<v Speaker 1>really good about this program in case in prior to

635
00:29:02.000 --> 00:29:05.559
<v Speaker 1>not being available is clearly a difference maker. But it

636
00:29:05.640 --> 00:29:08.279
<v Speaker 1>was so fun to feel alive, and I want to

637
00:29:08.319 --> 00:29:10.279
<v Speaker 1>have that feeling again. I just know that Duke's really,

638
00:29:10.279 --> 00:29:12.319
<v Speaker 1>really good, and they're going to be here on Sunday.

639
00:29:12.480 --> 00:29:14.319
<v Speaker 1>All right, Quick Break five o'clock hours next right here

640
00:29:14.359 --> 00:29:15.440
<v Speaker 1>on Sportsbox seven ninety
