00:00:31,519 --> 00:00:34,119
Speaker 3: And welcome into Cougar Sports. On one three nine, ninety

9
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,880
eight three ESPN The Fan. Ramuf the three man Weaver,

10
00:00:38,719 --> 00:00:40,399
filling in for a ban Credal. He'll be out of

11
00:00:40,439 --> 00:00:43,079
the office for the next two days. I'm gonna have

12
00:00:43,079 --> 00:00:46,840
to have multiple flu games to do this. Uh look,

13
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:50,280
when you get the you get the flu. Get the

14
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,200
fever is not right, but that's just how it goes.

15
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:54,799
You gotta show up and show out. You gotta perform sick,

16
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,479
like the way Asia Debonsa did. I tried to shut

17
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,119
myself down, but I pumped myself with some liquids with

18
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:03,439
IV I got some sustenance in me. The bananas, the bread,

19
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,799
the rice, that's what you can eat when the stomach

20
00:01:06,879 --> 00:01:10,040
is not feeling right to help yourself. So we're gonna

21
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,120
keep it tuned in recap everything going on. You guys

22
00:01:13,159 --> 00:01:17,200
are going to be upset with me, maybe for this

23
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,319
first segment, because I am a PI chart of accountability guy.

24
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,519
My codes do I welcome in momentarily. He knows how

25
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:26,840
I feel. I hate when I make mistakes. I hate

26
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,599
when I let people down. I don't like repeating the

27
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,719
same error. But look, I'm not a perfect individual, and

28
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,760
things happen three times. You have to make a change.

29
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,959
You gotta lock in. And the three game losing streak

30
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,159
now is something that people should be should pay attention

31
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:46,519
to and b YU basketball right now, it's at a

32
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,280
point of where it gets corrected or it's gonna turn

33
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,280
into a disaster. Now. I trust that Kevin Young and

34
00:01:52,319 --> 00:01:54,280
the staff will. They did it last year, but with

35
00:01:54,319 --> 00:01:57,120
the way it's looking, some people might be losing faith.

36

Speaker 3: I was.

64
00:02:57,159 --> 00:02:59,319
Speaker 4: I didn't feel that I had. I didn't feel it

65
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,719
at all. Yeah, you know, I didn't even notice.

66
00:03:01,719 --> 00:03:03,039
Speaker 3: Oh no, I felt that. I was like, oh wow,

67
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:03,560
that's crazy.

68
00:03:03,599 --> 00:03:05,599
Speaker 4: My wife, who's this? Who's a second grade teacher over

69
00:03:05,599 --> 00:03:08,479
in Saratoga. She just texted me all caps. She goes, dude,

70
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,159
we just had an earthquake. I said, how bad? She said,

71
00:03:11,199 --> 00:03:13,719
three point four. It's actually scary. There's lots of crying

72
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:18,199
kids and then my in laws they're texting pictures. Nothing crazy,

73
00:03:18,199 --> 00:03:21,599
but like there's like cracks in like the wall, and

74
00:03:21,759 --> 00:03:24,960
there's a real Again. I don't think anybody in the

75
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:25,560
area has been hurt.

76
00:03:25,719 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 2: It's only three point four, but there's a couple of

77
00:03:27,599 --> 00:03:28,560
kids crying, so.

78
00:03:28,759 --> 00:03:31,599
Speaker 4: Not a nobody shake.

79
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,319
Speaker 3: And I was like, that's interesting. But we sit in

80
00:03:33,319 --> 00:03:35,719
a trailer trailer like this d moves.

81
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, it's just the wind.

82
00:03:37,479 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 4: I didn't notice that at all that we had an

83
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:40,199
earthquake just now.

84
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,199
Speaker 3: No, I did, because I got the I got the

85
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:43,919
same notification on my father, Like, wait, what would you

86
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,039
got an earthquake? I said, that is interesting because you know,

87
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,599
Vic walks in, he's sturdy, he's got the girth, you know,

88
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,680
and he walks in and boom, Gurnie walks in and

89
00:03:50,719 --> 00:03:53,080
does shake. But yeah, we have an earthquake, so everybody

90
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,560
please be safe and hopefully you don't have to. I'm

91
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,319
sorry wife's having to deal with that. Crying kids. I

92
00:03:57,319 --> 00:03:59,719
hope they'll be okay, because like, that's scary for kids

93
00:03:59,719 --> 00:04:02,280
they don't know they're learning. But yea, earthquakes are crazy.

94
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,840
You imagine those people like in California who have to

95
00:04:04,879 --> 00:04:06,719
deal with that, you know, with higher ones like a

96
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,120
four or five. Never want to wish that, you know that.

97
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,080
I remember the movie Twister. You know, obviously a couple

98
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:13,840
of people. You never want people to deal with tornadoes.

99
00:04:13,879 --> 00:04:16,199
I was in my mission. Look, I told the story before,

100
00:04:16,199 --> 00:04:17,240
but I don't know if I told it to you,

101
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,879
and if I do, I apologize for reiterating this. But

102
00:04:20,079 --> 00:04:21,600
it was gonna be a bad one. It was supposed

103
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,360
to wreck everybody, and it was supposed to go past

104
00:04:24,399 --> 00:04:26,560
the church, the churches in that property. So we were nervous.

105
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,319
We were as only leaders at the time. I said

106
00:04:28,319 --> 00:04:30,439
that because we were delegated the responsibility of going to

107
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,120
check the church. Sure, so we getting our car, We

108
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,920
wake up six thirty, as we normally do, we leave

109
00:04:35,959 --> 00:04:37,519
at seven thirty. We're like, all right, we'll leave earlier

110
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,000
because we're just we're both nervous. We get there. Could

111
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,279
you not on everything on my Mama on on on

112
00:04:43,319 --> 00:04:47,279
the seven seven three bro. Everything around the church was demolished,

113
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:48,839
the Church of Jesus Christ. A lot of the stents

114
00:04:48,959 --> 00:04:51,600
was not. We went to our investigator, now we went

115
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,720
to the Lord's investigators to choose me the people who

116
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:59,120
we were teaching. All houses destroyed, everything was destroyed, back neighborhoods.

117
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,560
I couldn't believe it. And that is where I finally

118
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:03,160
and it's crazy. People gonna be like Ron you have

119
00:05:03,319 --> 00:05:05,360
I had a testimony. That is where I say I

120
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,319
don't play with the man above because the man above

121
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,879

122
00:05:12,879 --> 00:05:16,439
titbit as well. Check out the rest of our esp

123
00:05:16,519 --> 00:05:17,879
and the fans start lineup. We were gonna try to

124
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,319
get Kevin Young sound in the nitty gritty, but look,

125
00:05:20,639 --> 00:05:22,639
it is bad. It's not good. It was not so

126
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,000
we can't play that for you. We're gonna recap it though,

127
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,000
Bred and myself we're gonna get into our question of today.

00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,560
We're gonna play some Kaline Media availability sound from yesterday.

132
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was doing the rounds yesterday.

00:05:49,199 --> 00:05:50,959

00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,000

148
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:18,079
all of you NBA fans. Jazzer's other people been multiple

149
00:06:18,079 --> 00:06:21,279

151
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,800

152
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:30,639
we'll see. Just give a little plug there. Look, before

153
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,560
we get into the nitty gritty, I was really trying

154
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,439
to think of bred of what could I mention today

155
00:06:36,439 --> 00:06:40,079
that can make people laugh about, you know, cause my

156
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,879
wife always gets on me. I make jokes when they's paying.

157
00:06:42,879 --> 00:06:44,000
You know this, You've known me for a little bit

158
00:06:44,079 --> 00:06:47,519
time exactly because like I, crying just hurts too much,

159
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,279
and I don't cry as a journalists. But just like

160
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,199
after my dad passed away, and you know, you and

161
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,160
I have talked about it, it's really I really don't

162
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,519
want to get emotional like that. So I make jokes.

163
00:06:55,519 --> 00:06:57,240
I make jokes that laugh. I do stuff like, ah,

164
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,480
you know, maybe stuff, maybe they might be a little crude.

165
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,240
I won't lie, but I do that to not have

166
00:07:02,319 --> 00:07:05,040
to deal with the you know, the unfortunate situation. It's

167
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,879
maybe it's a trauma response. But I found this video

168
00:07:08,199 --> 00:07:11,360
from yesterday, and this is the only way I could

169
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:15,600
describe how BYU fans and this three game losing street

170
00:07:15,639 --> 00:07:18,040
for BYU basketball, and what we all thought they were

171
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:19,839
gonna get back on track. Ben and I predicted it.

172
00:07:20,079 --> 00:07:23,360
We thought ten point win. It was basically it should

173
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,800
have been a fifteen point loss. But AJ was knocking

174
00:07:25,839 --> 00:07:28,920
down threes, doing this thing, staying into it. Started. The

175
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,319
game was atrocious like it always is. Twenty I got

176
00:07:32,439 --> 00:07:34,360
outscored twenty to nine. I'm pretty sure, Brett, is.

177
00:07:34,319 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 4: This the shallowest EOU basketball team you've ever seen, like

178
00:07:37,199 --> 00:07:39,759
in terms of like you have basically three and a

179
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,079
half four guys.

180
00:07:41,319 --> 00:07:43,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, this might be it that I have seen. Yeah,

181
00:07:43,879 --> 00:07:45,959
maybe not in history, but right I don't know about history,

182
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,360
but like I'm just but that I have seen that

183
00:07:47,399 --> 00:07:48,759
I've covered in my time on hundred.

184
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 4: I think any bench guy from probably the last ten

185
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,360
years is getting buckets on this.

186
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,439
Speaker 3: Well, you think about when Alex Barcela was young and

187
00:07:55,519 --> 00:07:57,160
McKay cannon, who was a senior that wanted to take

188
00:07:57,199 --> 00:08:00,160
those roles. Those guys could help to seem so much

189
00:08:00,199 --> 00:08:02,920
right now, you know if Alex Sell will be one

190
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:04,839
of the best shooters in the country when he played

191
00:08:04,879 --> 00:08:08,040
in McKay cannon elite defense wanted to play and lock

192
00:08:08,079 --> 00:08:11,439
you up. Look, it's it's tough. Now. I have to

193
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,879
give credible credits due end at the half on the

194
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,040
sixteen or four run, and it ended on the dunkey.

195
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,439
You were thinking Okay, Bo's gonna play and pull away. No,

196
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:22,120
Oklahoma State was going bucket for bucket, and I said, okay,

197
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:23,959
the defenses is atrocious.

198
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,839
Speaker 2: It is. Well what I told Ben the other day.

199
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 4: I think I said this on this program was when

200
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:31,800
I was in high school and maybe you were like this.

201
00:08:31,879 --> 00:08:34,519
And honestly, even when I was in college, I lived

202
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,919
under this mentality where I was like, oh, you know what,

203
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,960
I do my homework better when I'm under pressure, you know,

204
00:08:40,039 --> 00:08:40,879
like I do my best.

205
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 3: Remember this when the assignments due the next day.

206
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 4: Now I don't know that that's true, but I'll tell

207
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,120
you this I and I know my parents told me this.

208
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:52,240
They said, okay, FAFO, like, you'll mess around and you'll

209
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,720
find out. And guess what came days where I was like,

210
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,799
oh man, I'm too tired from practice today. I don't

211
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:58,039
think I can. I don't think I can get this

212
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,240
assignmon Dunne. And you know what, the next day didn't

213
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,399
get turned in. When you play with fire, you will

214
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,799
get burned. When you play this many close games and

215
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,320
you say, hey, we're a second half team, not a

216
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,879
first half team. We start slow in the first half.

217
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,519
You play around this many times, stuff like this happens.

218
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,320
Games that you should win you don't because you didn't

219
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,720
take things seriously early on. It's sure you bring up

220
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,600
a very valid point. Can I be honest with you?

221
00:09:23,639 --> 00:09:25,919
And this is different and obviously the talent is different,

222
00:09:25,919 --> 00:09:27,759
it's a different league. But to connect it, I always

223
00:09:27,799 --> 00:09:29,559
got to drop a Kansas City Chiefs thing, and it

224
00:09:29,639 --> 00:09:32,559
seems like last year with the Chiefs, not this past season.

225
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,799
You play that many one score games and you bound

226
00:09:35,799 --> 00:09:38,840
to lose something. What happened this season just unraveled. And

227
00:09:38,879 --> 00:09:40,879
I bring up that to fit the notion I think

228
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,080
is a good analogy. You would agree because the bad

229
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:44,960
guys get hurt. And I granted the quarterback was the

230
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:46,840
main one, but you have your fair share of injuries.

231
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:50,600
The lineman got hurt. So look, this team is really

232
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,399
going through it right now. Ben calls it the refiners

233
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,559
fire and there's no silver linings. Don't try to tell

234
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,759
me those are silver lining. Look, I don't want to

235
00:09:58,759 --> 00:10:00,159
hear from you, Brett. I't want here for any the

236
00:10:00,159 --> 00:10:02,960
b d YU media person. There's no civil liners you

237
00:10:03,039 --> 00:10:05,440
can tell you know. I I think they can figure

238
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,360
it out. I'll hear that. But like silver linings that's gone.

239
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,320
I think I was the number one pessimist on this

240
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,159
show over the last week. I'd just like to say,

241
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,360
and I don't enjoy being right about this. Justice you don't,

242
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,480
I'm not. I don't like that this is a situation.

243
00:10:17,759 --> 00:10:20,279
Every day I wake up hoping for a better tomorrow.

244
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,600
I don't like being right about what the day looks like.

245
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,200
But I've felt pessimistic about this and I've not been

246
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:27,200
proven wrong so far.

247
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 3: You haven't been look bred always bringing hammer don't miss

248
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,080
when he's a little pessimistic. We're gonna continue this discussion,

249
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,039
but let's before we do that, let's get into the

268
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:49,960
to the positives, let's start with the negatives. Because I

269
00:11:50,279 --> 00:11:54,080
end on a positive note, but I have to address accountability.

270
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,399
I said I had a video queued up for you guys,

271
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,879
and I do, and I'm getting it prepared right now.

272
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,639
But this is how I felt yesterday. It's a Steven A.

273
00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,399
Smith video, but this is kind of how and this

274
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,519
is tongue in cheek. This to be funny again, Brett,

275
00:12:07,519 --> 00:12:08,919
and I just said it early. If you're tuning into

276
00:12:08,919 --> 00:12:11,759
the show, we laugh at pain like Kevin Hart laugh

277
00:12:11,799 --> 00:12:14,279
at my pain. So yes, it's unfortunate that you're laughing

278
00:12:14,279 --> 00:12:16,200
at you all these basketball pain. But I bring this

279
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,440
up to make make a situation that's tough, like hearted.

280
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,159
Let's tune into the video. I have keed up.

281
00:12:22,759 --> 00:12:26,320
Speaker 2: Oh we have been hoodwicked, bad, boozled.

282
00:12:25,879 --> 00:12:32,879
Speaker 4: Let us stray, run a monk, and flat out the sea.

283
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:34,919
Speaker 2: It's bad.

284
00:12:35,279 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 3: This is bad.

285
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,799
Speaker 4: This is very very bad.

286
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:44,320
Speaker 2: Mean, damn it. It never ever ever goes our way.

287
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:50,639
Speaker 5: Oh no, no.

288
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,679
Speaker 2: This can't be happening. No, I am having a very

289
00:12:53,759 --> 00:12:54,240
bad day.

290
00:12:55,159 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 4: I mean no, this today, having a long time.

291
00:13:03,919 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 3: Now. I want to yell, but I don't feel well,

292
00:13:05,639 --> 00:13:07,399
so I'm not going to. But I'm having a very

293
00:13:07,519 --> 00:13:09,919
very bad day. I played all that to be funny,

294
00:13:09,919 --> 00:13:14,000
Brett's but you love that very very bad. I've had

295
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:19,200
very very sorry. Actually I'm having a very very very

296
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,159
bad day. This is bad, Steven, this is bad. This

297
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,039
is very bad. This is very bad. Look and I

298
00:13:25,039 --> 00:13:26,759
said it's tuck a cheek. But I'm being serious, Brett.

299
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:31,080
This is very very bad. This is very very bad. Brett.

300
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:32,919
You saw what I put on Twitter. You saw the stats,

301
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,440
the stats I put out in Look, when I give

302
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,440
constructive criticism, it's based on the game, it's based on

303
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,279
what I see. It's it's the data points right. I'm

304
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:42,519
not just gonna be like I'm not gonna go in

305
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,639
motion with fans and say a B, C or D.

306
00:13:44,799 --> 00:13:48,840
But look, body language is a lot to me, Brett.

307
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:52,279
You played high school sports. I played them. I played

308
00:13:52,279 --> 00:13:54,480
on the rugby team. Here, guess what I can tell

309
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,720
you about my body language at times when I was frustrated,

310
00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,600
whether that be coaches, teammates, myself played not good and

311
00:14:00,639 --> 00:14:03,679
it reflects and people don't hide it too well in

312
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:07,039
this entire team's body language. Look, that's the first thing

313
00:14:07,039 --> 00:14:10,320
I look at Darius lass Er, Jay Gresslow. Body language

314
00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,919
did not look good. And it's safe to say that

315
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:17,240
the body language does not look good, doesn't It's it's

316
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:23,240
very unfortunate because I'm gonna bring up this in a second.

317
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,360
But you wonder about last year's team what they would

318
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:28,720
have done. And I'm gonna give you some insight for

319
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,360
some from from someone that's already spoken about it, but

320
00:14:31,559 --> 00:14:35,120
from some source information that I received. Check this out.

321
00:14:35,279 --> 00:14:37,600
This is what I said. Bau's guards not effective tonight.

322
00:14:37,639 --> 00:14:40,600
That was last night. You lost a turnover battle. Rob

323
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,080
Ritchie and Canard combined for ten of the sixteen turnovers.

324
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:49,120
That can't happen. Out of the twenty fourteen fouls, Richie,

325
00:14:49,159 --> 00:14:52,000
rob and Canard were one foul away a piece from

326
00:14:52,039 --> 00:14:56,919
fouling out of the game. Richie already filed out against Arizona.

327
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,519
Maybe that could have caught. Maybe maybe maybe talking could

328
00:14:59,519 --> 00:15:01,799
have been open. Breaden Berrys doesn't blits off the weak's side.

329
00:15:01,919 --> 00:15:05,720
Maybe Rod's able to kick. That was the issue. They

330
00:15:05,759 --> 00:15:10,720
shot multitudes of free throws, Brett, and they missed them,

331
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:12,879
and you lost the game. When a team shoots that

332
00:15:12,919 --> 00:15:15,000
ballet from the free throw line, you're telling me you

333
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:20,000
lose that ballgame. I cannot believe it. So, yes, it

334
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,519
is a very very very very very bad day in

335
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,879
Cougarnation for people right now, for this BA basketball team. Brett.

336
00:15:26,159 --> 00:15:28,360
I was shocked because when I looked at when I

337
00:15:28,399 --> 00:15:29,960
watched the game, and I looked at the numbers, I'm like,

338
00:15:30,679 --> 00:15:32,960
how and you thought that BA was gonna be in

339
00:15:33,039 --> 00:15:35,279
make a late push because Oklahoma State was not. They

340
00:15:35,279 --> 00:15:37,320
were bricking the first free throw. I said, man, they're

341
00:15:37,399 --> 00:15:40,320
leaving it to wide open. They are, but they shot

342
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:44,200
thirty four free throws a twenty two. But to me,

343
00:15:44,279 --> 00:15:46,279
that was a difference maker. It was the personal fouls.

344
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,879
It was the turnovers. You let them push and transition.

345
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,080
The defense was non existing. Brett.

346
00:15:52,639 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 2: What's crazy is the offense?

347
00:15:54,039 --> 00:16:01,559
Speaker 4: Actually, offense look great, but like your contextual lie is it? Like, yes,

348
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,399
your offense versus their offer, And when you look at

349
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,279
it from that perspective, you think, because I think there's

350
00:16:07,279 --> 00:16:08,120
a lot of people you know.

351
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:09,039
Speaker 2: Wait, man, they.

352
00:16:08,919 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 4: Played bad, yesster, Well, actually they played really good offensively.

353
00:16:12,399 --> 00:16:15,320
The thing I bring up was defensively they they shot run.

354
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,759
Speaker 2: They shot forty three percent from three.

355
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 3: When was the last time we did that.

356
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 2: I don't know.

357
00:16:19,919 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 4: They shot thirty, they shot fifty percent from the field,

358
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:24,480
and they shot seventy six per.

359
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 3: Games when they do that.

360
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,360
Speaker 4: The problem was to your point, yep, you doubled them

361
00:16:29,399 --> 00:16:33,320
in turnovers. They had eight, you had sixteen. They scored

362
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:37,279
twenty one points just off of those turnovers. Well, you

363
00:16:37,399 --> 00:16:41,080
tied on the rebounding battle, you tied in second chance points.

364
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,080
Now they had twenty eight points of the bench to

365
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,679
your twenty nine. You have thirty six paint points, which

366
00:16:45,759 --> 00:16:49,679
isn't too bad except you gave up fifty to a

367
00:16:49,759 --> 00:16:51,440
fifty barger in the paint run.

368
00:16:51,519 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 3: Oh that's that's tough. And they and k but that's

369
00:16:54,759 --> 00:16:56,200
a disappointment.

370
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 4: And that's like kind of part of my question is,

371
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,639
like how to thing like this happened.

372
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 2: I don't know.

373
00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 4: We've been asking for the offense just to like step

374
00:17:08,279 --> 00:17:13,720
up insistently and when they man, they played incredibly offensive

375
00:17:13,759 --> 00:17:16,519
last night. However, I thought I think it was Casey

376
00:17:16,599 --> 00:17:20,720
Jacobson was the analyst at halftime, which this is exactly

377
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,480
what he said said, Oklahoma State wants to get in

378
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,759
a shootout with you. They want to do this. They're good,

379
00:17:27,039 --> 00:17:30,440
they're good not playing defense. They thrive in situations where

380
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,920
you don't play defense because they're not gonna play defense either. No,

381
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,920
they're gonna go problem is they know exactly they know

382
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:37,559
they can outscore you. I do believe this is a

383
00:17:37,599 --> 00:17:39,720
top three scoring offense in the Big twelve, the one

384
00:17:39,759 --> 00:17:41,319
of the worst defenses in the Big twelve.

385
00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,519
Speaker 3: But that's why they get to the team. In transition

386
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,279
to yep, so played and Roy who is what to

387
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,920
see the nation's leading score a year ago at Green

388
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:55,039
Bay bucketed he gave you buckets. Look, I'm gonna be honest,

389
00:17:55,079 --> 00:17:58,119
he gave you buckets. He did, he did, He said,

390
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,240
AJ wants some come get cooked. Gnar, you want some,

391
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,640
come get cooked. But Todd King, I'm gonna cook you.

392
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:05,599
I'll give you some tots. I'll give them to you.

393
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,559
Well done, Rob Right, you're gonna get some too. And

394
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:10,160
this is where I'm gonna be a little bit more

395
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:15,519
critical about the deeds. I did some numbers, and I

396
00:18:15,559 --> 00:18:18,119
went back and I had and I had to because

397
00:18:18,279 --> 00:18:20,480
I want to bring data. I want to bring it

398
00:18:20,519 --> 00:18:22,599
the right way. Kevin Jung says, not gonna make a

399
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,799
lineup change. I disagree now, I'm not. I don't get

400
00:18:25,839 --> 00:18:27,599
paid all the millions of dollars to do it, but

401
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,000
right now is not working. And you got Houston coming

402
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,880
in on Saturday and two days what you saw the

403
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:34,759
other night. If you think you're gonna put ninety two

404
00:18:34,799 --> 00:18:37,200
pints up against us and you're winning the national championship, yeah,

405
00:18:37,279 --> 00:18:40,519
that ain't happening. Kelvin Sampson. Just you hear they did

406
00:18:40,519 --> 00:18:42,480
the UCF who, by the way, can beat you? I

407
00:18:42,519 --> 00:18:44,759
think at the crib who should be a top twenty

408
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,799
five team? By the way, who got Texas Tech by

409
00:18:47,839 --> 00:18:49,920
the way, Ye, Texas A and M by the way.

410
00:18:50,039 --> 00:18:51,920
Just I'm giving you numbers of things that have happened.

411
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:53,839
This is all data, This is not me all. You're

412
00:18:53,839 --> 00:18:57,160
being emotionalron No, Rob Wright, I think in this losing

413
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,039
streak is fifteen of forty two thirty five percent. He

414
00:19:00,079 --> 00:19:03,400
gotta play better. From two he's twelve to thirty forty percent.

415
00:19:03,759 --> 00:19:07,160
Not terrible, right, not great. You could take that though

416
00:19:07,279 --> 00:19:10,000
he's forty percent. I'll take that, But then the three

417
00:19:10,039 --> 00:19:12,279
point shoot is you gotta be better. And it's not

418
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,039
that Rob's twos are bad, it's when they come when

419
00:19:15,039 --> 00:19:17,960
they got that offensive rebound. Do you know you need threes?

420
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,119
And aj and Richie you're cooking, and not that it's

421
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:21,839
not going your way, right because he had five or

422
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,240
ten that he misses twos. And I know he's trying

423
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:25,720
to attack to the basket, but he has a bad

424
00:19:25,799 --> 00:19:28,039
habit of trying to drive on dudes bigger than him.

425
00:19:28,039 --> 00:19:29,200
I went back and I watched a lot of tape

426
00:19:29,279 --> 00:19:31,160
last night. I didn't go to bed till like one thirty,

427
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:32,680
which I should not have done, being sick, but I

428
00:19:32,759 --> 00:19:35,519
was just I wanted to get actual tape. He is

429
00:19:35,559 --> 00:19:38,599
in the Arizona game in other games and he feels

430
00:19:38,599 --> 00:19:40,079
contact and throws up and this is where I'm about

431
00:19:40,079 --> 00:19:42,279
to rip this team. If I see AJ or Rob

432
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,960
or another player do some NBA try to draw foul

433
00:19:45,039 --> 00:19:47,960
type stuff and don't try to finish through contact to

434
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,359
the basket, and he just capable of doing it. It's

435
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,440
gonna blow my mind. You're trying to get You're not

436
00:19:53,559 --> 00:19:56,680
getting that foul called in the Big twelve. You're not.

437
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,079
It's just not happening. They can run them up, they

438
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,279
can be physical with you, they can press and do everything.

439
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:04,480
You have to understand it. You have to adjust to

440
00:20:04,519 --> 00:20:07,000
the officials. Doesn't matter if Kevin Young's yelling, it doesn't

441
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,240
matter if they're not giving AJ calls. There's a pivotal

442
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,759
moment where AJ went for a turnaround. He clutched, clutched,

443
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,000
and then shot a yeah, I'm gonna say it, a

444
00:20:14,079 --> 00:20:15,799
terrible fade away and it just it barely hit the

445
00:20:15,799 --> 00:20:17,480
front of the room. Like that's how, that's what, That's

446
00:20:17,519 --> 00:20:18,240
what a scouting report.

447
00:20:18,279 --> 00:20:19,759
Speaker 4: What do we say about boxing? What do we say

448
00:20:19,799 --> 00:20:23,039
about UFC? Don't let it go to a judge judge decision. Ever,

449
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,079
you cannot say, hey man, if we get the calls,

450
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:26,799
we win the game.

451
00:20:27,279 --> 00:20:32,799
Speaker 3: Okay, Look I feel for aj a little bit because

452
00:20:32,799 --> 00:20:34,119
he played.

453
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:37,839
Speaker 4: Great well that and the fact that, like the last

454
00:20:37,839 --> 00:20:40,599
couple of games, he should be getting more calls than

455
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:40,920
he does.

456
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,759
Speaker 3: However, seven Throws look at it.

457
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 2: From the officials perspective.

458
00:20:45,799 --> 00:20:47,839
Speaker 4: I think the way that the officials look at it

459
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,880
is you were trying to game the system without playing

460
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,039
basketball fully.

461
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 2: And and the only.

462
00:20:53,839 --> 00:20:57,559
Speaker 4: Reason I say that is because basketball, frankly has been

463
00:20:57,599 --> 00:21:00,119
said a bad precedent because of what Oklahoma is that

464
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,240
he did, which is they figured out the most efficient

465
00:21:03,279 --> 00:21:05,440
way for us to score is by getting to the

466
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,960
free throw line. And while I agree it's efficient, I

467
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,400
also believe that it's disingenuous. And so I think when

468
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,880
officials see, hey, I don't know that you're trying to

469
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,119
play basketball, I think you're trying to game the system

470
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,039
and get to the rim. Then when it does become

471
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,759
a fifty to fifty situation and they're like, is it

472
00:21:21,799 --> 00:21:22,160
a foul?

473
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:23,279
Speaker 2: Is it not a foul?

474
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 4: I think they lean on the side of you're not

475
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,160
gonna gain me into giving you points, even though I

476
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,920
think objectively you should call whatever is a foul called

477
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:31,240
a foul.

478
00:21:31,319 --> 00:21:32,400
Speaker 2: Don't look at it that way.

479
00:21:32,599 --> 00:21:34,759
Speaker 4: But I do think officials are saying, hey, we're not

480
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:38,720
just gonna give you the basket. Like again, to your point,

481
00:21:38,799 --> 00:21:39,720
you gotta finish.

482
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,839
Speaker 3: Their contact period like you and then you'll get the

483
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,519
call like and that's the point. You cannot draw the

484
00:21:45,559 --> 00:21:47,759
foul at the top. You gotta finish her. If Rob

485
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:49,799
is trying to fake and these get in contact and

486
00:21:49,839 --> 00:21:51,839
going through and getting that, you'll get that, which he

487
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:53,960
did get towards the end the game. When he started

488
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,960
doing he just you got it. I know they're very creative.

489
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,119
He's so dynamic when he gets down heel, but there

490
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,960
are times where I feel like it's forced. And look,

491
00:22:03,759 --> 00:22:06,799
he as well as everybody, gets their fasher of defensive

492
00:22:06,799 --> 00:22:09,240
things some more than another. Part chart of accountability. Entire

493
00:22:09,279 --> 00:22:11,559
defensive team is terrible. You're giveing them ninety points the

494
00:22:11,599 --> 00:22:14,680
blast two games nainety Kansas ninety nine to Oklahoma State.

495
00:22:15,079 --> 00:22:18,480
You've gotten yo, you know what kicked? Yeah, you got

496
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,599
your donkey kicked. And I know it's ninety two to ninety.

497
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,079
I know you came back in those games. But the

498
00:22:22,079 --> 00:22:23,759
way it's look, you never felt like they were winning

499
00:22:23,759 --> 00:22:26,400
the game in the second half after the timin and

500
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,160
Marcus said, I don't know if they have a chance,

501
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:29,799
I'm like, oh, they've done it. But the way they

502
00:22:29,799 --> 00:22:33,680
were playing it just it seemed like defeated. It seemed

503
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:35,000
that way, and it was tough, and they were in it.

504
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,279
And I'm not saying I'm not when I say defeated

505
00:22:37,319 --> 00:22:39,880
of oh we have to battle back again, not the

506
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:41,640
the energy of that. They dodn't want to play. They

507
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,359
were trying to, but it's they're getting exhausted because they

508
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,720
keep putting themselves in the same situations.

509
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 4: And the unfortunate part is this is one of their

510
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,119
best offensive performances of the season.

511
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:52,359
Speaker 3: I think I agree with you.

512
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:56,680
Speaker 4: I have con I have such a hard time understanding

513
00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:00,319
what to make of this team because, yes, you've been

514
00:23:00,319 --> 00:23:02,160
in a close game on the road with Kansas, you

515
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,720
were in a close game at home, made a comeback

516
00:23:04,759 --> 00:23:09,480
against Arizona, but then you give up one hundred points

517
00:23:09,599 --> 00:23:14,480
to Oklahoma State, and and I just like, there's fifty

518
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:16,799
eight points in the second half. I go back and forth,

519
00:23:16,839 --> 00:23:19,680
and I say, is the offense not scoring enough? Well,

520
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:21,839
that's clearly not the problem. They score fifty one points

521
00:23:21,839 --> 00:23:24,680
on the second half, as they normally do. You you thought, Okay,

522
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,359
this is gonna be typical Bo. You hold them to

523
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,519
thirty something outscore and they're gonna win.

524
00:23:28,519 --> 00:23:29,599
Speaker 3: This game. Never happened.

525
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 2: Put up sixty points in the second.

526
00:23:32,799 --> 00:23:36,400
Speaker 3: In a college basketball game. R at sixty points in

527
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,440
a college basketball game.

528
00:23:41,559 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 2: It's not.

529
00:23:43,559 --> 00:23:48,160
Speaker 3: Defense is not there, Bro, Defense is lot existent. And look,

530
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,359
I'm gonna say it because I know basketball little. I

531
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,359
don't know what the best and I have to, you know,

532
00:23:53,519 --> 00:23:55,200
be careful about how I go things. But they hide

533
00:23:55,279 --> 00:23:57,480
Rob right in the corner. And you know what these

534
00:23:57,519 --> 00:24:01,119
teams are seeing on tape. Your perimeter defense struggles, and

535
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:04,079
they bringing Rob to the top. And when Canar gets

536
00:24:04,079 --> 00:24:05,400
in foul, trouble is cake.

537
00:24:05,559 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 4: And what was the biggest issue the team had last year?

538
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:08,599
Amplified in the.

539
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:13,160
Speaker 3: One hundred percent perimeter defense every and it was reversed yesterday.

540
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,799
It was in the paint. They had Alabama type performance in.

541
00:24:15,799 --> 00:24:20,759
Speaker 2: The paint fifty two points in the paint run.

542
00:24:20,799 --> 00:24:22,640
Speaker 3: They scored fifty eight in the second half of fifty

543
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:24,680
two of them came to paint. Think about that they

544
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:26,960
could have beat you in the second half by just

545
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,119
scoring paint points. Think about that. I want you to

546
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,319
think that through logically. Bill let's talk about stats you

547
00:24:31,319 --> 00:24:33,319
brought to by Benner, wild Brett and Vickis next week.

548
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,880
Think about that they scored fifty eight points, fifty two

549
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:38,440
of those in the second half. They just decided to

550
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,519
go into paint with no threes day to beat you.

551
00:24:40,599 --> 00:24:43,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, twenty yessa, crazy twenties. So how many points you

552
00:24:43,599 --> 00:24:44,759
already scored in the second half?

553
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:45,160
Speaker 3: All right?

554
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:46,079
Speaker 2: They scored fifty one.

555
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:50,400
Speaker 4: So the bench points just second half bench points or

556
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,640
points in the paint, sorry, second half points in the paint.

557
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 3: Twenties, So.

558
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 2: Like you didn't even have a better half.

559
00:24:58,559 --> 00:25:00,640
Speaker 4: Hope, they scored twenty six in the f first half

560
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,480
and twenty six in the second half.

561
00:25:02,559 --> 00:25:04,440
Speaker 3: Bright, I just did the math. Okay, let's say that

562
00:25:04,519 --> 00:25:06,240
they only scored the fifty two points in the paint

563
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:07,200
minus to fifty.

564
00:25:07,319 --> 00:25:07,880
Speaker 2: I did the math.

565
00:25:08,079 --> 00:25:10,799
Speaker 3: They still beat you by one. They beat you ninety

566
00:25:10,799 --> 00:25:13,880
three to ninety two. I highlight that point to let

567
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,079
you know of how bad the defense was protecting the rim.

568
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:19,960
That's the following cab aske to fall. But and then

569
00:25:20,279 --> 00:25:22,039
you gotta understand now, granted, I want to say this

570
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,200
Oklahoma state, stop flopping. They have about three different dudes

571
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,319
with haircuts, you know, I mean looking like they were

572
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,640
all A G League players and all star players at

573
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,559
the time. But they was flopping some of them to

574
00:25:32,559 --> 00:25:34,240
get these calls. But again, you have to jest if

575
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:36,720
your canard, don't put hands on them. If you know

576
00:25:36,759 --> 00:25:38,240
that they're gonna do that, if you know that they're

577
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,119
gonna call a foul of you are able to go

578
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,720
down the line, then just stand there with your hands up.

579
00:25:43,079 --> 00:25:45,839
And it got tough. Is it was really tough yesterday

580
00:25:45,839 --> 00:25:48,799
and I really feel bad, but that's just the way

581
00:25:48,839 --> 00:25:51,720
it goes. It's a bad day and in cougarnation. And look,

582
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,079
I'm gonna say, you need a lineup change. Need a

583
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,599
lineup change. Excuse me, it needs to happen. And the

584
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,359
guy I think will discuss that more and the question

585
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,000
of the day who I think it is, and get

586
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:05,880
Bread's comments as well. But it's just and it's tough.

587
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,920
I have to have Patchotdoff accountability. Though this team right

588
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:10,720
now is not playing like a good basketball team. I

589
00:26:10,759 --> 00:26:13,000
trust k Why that he'll figure it out. I really do.

590
00:26:13,079 --> 00:26:15,240
I really believe that Kevin Young can figure it out.

591
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:18,039
I believe this bou basketball team can turner around. They

592
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:20,400
got nine games left, but this is not the start

593
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,000
that you want. It not the starters you needed, and

594
00:26:23,039 --> 00:26:24,759
they needed to get a real gut check. That's why

595
00:26:24,759 --> 00:26:26,640
I posted on my Twitter, I hope you post that

596
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:30,079
picture of oklah Oma State celebrating. I hope that's played

597
00:26:30,079 --> 00:26:32,799
at the beginning of practice before Houston every day because

598
00:26:32,799 --> 00:26:35,640
you need something going into the Houston game. Because if

599
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,839
you thought Oklahoma State was physical bread, I can't even

600
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,039
imagine of what it's going to be like when you

601
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:44,480
have to play Houston. So we got to go to break.

602
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,000

Speaker 5: Just like the Cougar football team, Ben Kridtle was built,

624
00:27:48,759 --> 00:27:51,799
not born, and since two thousand and nineties built himself

625
00:27:51,839 --> 00:27:54,599
into the go to source on the radio and online

626
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,880
for all things Cougar. So this is Cougar Sports with

627
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:02,440

628
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:08,440
Speaker 3: Focus All the thing. Welcome back to Cougar Sports here

629
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:13,000
one O three nine, and that the fan red always

630
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:17,200
bringing the hammer by my side, Rode. We're feeling the

631
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,960
infra bank Crittal. A lot of people like, why are

632
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,559
you coming back so somber? Well, first of all, I'm

633
00:28:22,599 --> 00:28:24,359
hurt by the sickness. Nothing wants to sit down on

634
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:28,640
the stomach first of all and in the brain. But

635
00:28:29,079 --> 00:28:33,240
also are you hurt by this BOE basketball team lose

636
00:28:33,279 --> 00:28:34,079
the streak? It hurts.

637
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 2: It does, especially when coming into the season.

638
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:43,119
Speaker 4: The expectations and narrative from everybody was this is maybe

639
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:44,799
the most talented ever had.

640
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 3: That wasn't there if I said that?

641
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:54,960
Speaker 2: John Rothstein said that he did. So it's it's hard

642
00:28:55,039 --> 00:28:58,240
sitting with reality. Again.

643
00:28:58,319 --> 00:29:01,039
Speaker 4: The silver lining is that you scored ninety two points,

644
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:05,519
but you couldn't keep Oklahoma State from scoring ninety nine points.

645
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:06,720
Speaker 3: This is also true.

646
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 4: And the way that they did it, man, were there

647
00:29:11,039 --> 00:29:14,880
There were a couple shots that I felt like were

648
00:29:15,079 --> 00:29:18,839
luck infews, But there were also some of them where

649
00:29:19,039 --> 00:29:21,359
I mean, like Curry in the first half where he

650
00:29:22,119 --> 00:29:26,039
goes coast to coast full court, euro steps his way

651
00:29:26,039 --> 00:29:29,000
to the rim and then does a little Derek rose

652
00:29:29,079 --> 00:29:30,759
up and under and it just goes in and he

653
00:29:30,759 --> 00:29:33,119
beats all five defenders on one play, and I'm just like,

654
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:34,960
makes everybody look bad.

655
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:36,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, So and.

656
00:29:36,799 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 4: Then you know, we haven't even talked about the elephant

657
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,720
in the room, which is what happened towards the end

658
00:29:42,759 --> 00:29:45,160
of the game while Tyler Moruss was shooting his free throws.

659
00:29:46,279 --> 00:29:49,079
That's a whole conversation that needs to be had in

660
00:29:49,119 --> 00:29:52,000
it of its own. I don't even know if I'm

661
00:29:52,079 --> 00:29:54,519
sad about that. I told my wife because usually that

662
00:29:54,559 --> 00:29:56,400
stuff usually doesn't bug me. I told my wife this

663
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,640
morning though, I was like kind of starting to bug me.

664
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:04,039
So I don't know, man, Uh, I'm feeling the sad,

665
00:30:04,119 --> 00:30:06,759
sober energy though with Johnny Cash bringing us in.

666
00:30:07,119 --> 00:30:09,519

671
00:30:21,319 --> 00:30:26,160
Question of the day, you know, do you have faith

672
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,440
that BAU basketball can turn it around with nine games

673
00:30:29,519 --> 00:30:34,160
left in the season, because right now it's not good.

674
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,039
It's not And I got a couple of questions I'm

675
00:30:37,039 --> 00:30:38,559
gonna ask. That's one of them, you know, that's the

676
00:30:38,559 --> 00:30:40,599
main question. But then my basketball question of the day

677
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,799
is who needs to be moved out of the starting lineup?

678
00:30:43,799 --> 00:30:45,960
They need a lot, they need a lineup change. Look,

679
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,480
I'll be the one to bite the bullet. I'll be

680
00:30:48,559 --> 00:30:50,839
the one to bite the bullet. He did it last year.

681
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,119
I granted, you know, it's a little bit different. I

682
00:30:53,119 --> 00:30:56,079
think Cannon's body language and other things were different. And

683
00:30:56,079 --> 00:30:59,279
then when things seemed was deep deeper last year too.

684
00:30:59,279 --> 00:31:00,759
But I'm gonna hit on at that. I didn't get

685
00:31:00,759 --> 00:31:03,799
too in the last segment before we get into our

686
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:05,880
question about that, and I want to get your thoughts, Bratt.

687
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,480
But I also had posted this and I'm not playing

688
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:14,039
and I'm serious. I'll say it. Let me take the

689
00:31:14,079 --> 00:31:17,000
fire for it. I don't care who gets mad. Shouldn't

690
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:21,440
have let Dallen Hall go, Brandon Gurney and Sean Walker

691
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,480
or right when they said that everyone we said it

692
00:31:25,519 --> 00:31:29,359
was an upgrade. I did. I'm dying on that hill

693
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,759
right now now. Granted, things can change it. But February fifth,

694
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:36,480
not Thursday, not good. I said this first. This team's

695
00:31:36,519 --> 00:31:38,400
defense is non existed right now. Back to back games,

696
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,359
re Bo gives up ninety plus points. Second, the absence

697
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,400
of Yegor Dimen. Now we take are out of it.

698
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:45,680
He was going to the NBA lottery pick that and

699
00:31:45,839 --> 00:31:51,599
Dalla Hall, who were past first has I said, I

700
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,400
has spaced its face goodness type of when you get

701
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,559
it together wrong, has shaped its face. That's what I

702
00:31:55,599 --> 00:31:58,599
was trying to say, shaped its face. You need ball

703
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,960
movement and stops some basketball. This team is struggling with

704
00:32:02,119 --> 00:32:04,240
both of these right now.

705
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,640
Speaker 4: You know what's interesting about Aja and Yegor is like

706
00:32:09,799 --> 00:32:17,480
last year, last year, how do I say this, Aj

707
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,359
is what we wanted Yegor to be, and Yegor is

708
00:32:21,359 --> 00:32:23,680
a little bit of what we want, not necessarily Aj

709
00:32:23,799 --> 00:32:25,920
to be, but someone to be right, Because last year

710
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,599
you had fans saying, well, why isn't yegor Or going

711
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,839
for thirty points a night? Like, why isn't he just

712
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,240
being ball dominant and scoring at will? True?

713
00:32:33,279 --> 00:32:35,319
Speaker 2: That was that wasn't who he was. And he was

714
00:32:35,319 --> 00:32:35,839
a point guard.

715
00:32:35,839 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 4: He was a distributor, He was a facilitator and yes

716
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,119
he could score, but he wasn't the go get me

717
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,279
a forty piece guy that Aj Debonta was. Well, this

718
00:32:43,359 --> 00:32:47,039
year we're like, who's distributing the basketball? Who's sharing this

719
00:32:47,079 --> 00:32:50,119
thing who's moving it around can't be robbed because Rob's

720
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:51,720
to focus on getting into the rim.

721
00:32:51,759 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 2: I think as he should be.

722
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 3: I've defended that, but like as they brought him in

723
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:55,519
to do.

724
00:32:55,759 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 4: This year, you have the guy who can score you

725
00:32:58,519 --> 00:33:03,200
forty if needed, but you don't have the distributor, the facilitator.

726
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:09,240
Now again, granted, scoring the basketball is not the biggest

727
00:33:09,279 --> 00:33:12,720
issue on this team, No, it's not exactly.

728
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,880
Speaker 2: Slowing people down is the biggest issue.

729
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:18,319
Speaker 3: And they still need a lineup change because of that.

730
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,279
And that brings me to my point of.

731
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,359
Speaker 4: Who do you feel like on offense is like a

732
00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:24,440
defensive liability?

733
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,799
Speaker 3: I know, besides Rob, but you're not subbing Rob out,

734
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,400
I mean the next person. Look, I'm gonna keep it real.

735
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,000
If Dalen Hall was on this team, and look, I'll

736
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:33,839
take a hot take. I believe Rob Right would be

737
00:33:33,839 --> 00:33:38,839
benched in games. I will say it. What the game

738
00:33:38,839 --> 00:33:40,640
he had last night of turning the ball over like that?

739
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,480
Speaker 2: I mean my bench, define bench? Okay, sitting out the

740
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:45,960
whole game?

741
00:33:46,039 --> 00:33:49,039
Speaker 3: No, he's but there remember Iowa State. Okay, yegor, we're

742
00:33:49,039 --> 00:33:51,519
gonna sit, We're gonna bring down in let him run. Gay,

743
00:33:51,599 --> 00:33:53,759
You're it's it's not working for you right now at

744
00:33:53,759 --> 00:33:55,160
this moment in time. You're not done for the rest

745
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:57,319
of the season, but this game, the matchup you it's

746
00:33:57,359 --> 00:33:59,839
not it's not your moment from a point in time,

747
00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:03,400
like he says, feed the hot hand, feed the guy

748
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,640
that I believe that, and if it's not Rob, you're

749
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,239
gonna say no. And the reason why I go Rob

750
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,840
is because of point guard, because Dallan distributes, and I

751
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,679
just I don't know how Dallen and Rob would both

752
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,119
work on the court because both struggle at defense. That's

753
00:34:16,119 --> 00:34:18,320
why I say Rob. That's my points because when people

754
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:19,920
are gonna push back on me and say, well no, no,

755
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,440
Rob will be on the court to be Canard. Okay, Well,

756
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,440
when you got two guys to struggle with defense, Like

757
00:34:24,639 --> 00:34:26,880
the reason why Dallan could be on the floor with

758
00:34:27,039 --> 00:34:29,400
Mo What and Trey they had to elite definish in Trevin.

759
00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:31,519
The reason why they could run that offense with Kiba

760
00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:33,920
was in fos right, because that's what they did. They

761
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:39,960
had fus Dallan, Trey and Mo What Trevn like they're reading,

762
00:34:40,079 --> 00:34:42,440
you know, Dawson Times. They could run that because Dallen

763
00:34:42,559 --> 00:34:44,599
was passed first, slow you try to get you on

764
00:34:44,639 --> 00:34:46,519
your hip, puts you in jail. Lay the ball up,

765
00:34:46,559 --> 00:34:48,679
get the ball to fos slowed down, Fus could even

766
00:34:48,679 --> 00:34:50,639
pass out of the post. They haven't seen that passing

767
00:34:50,679 --> 00:34:53,119
ability from Kaba. I believe it's capable of it. So

768
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,159
that's more of the issues. Is the deep team that

769
00:34:57,199 --> 00:34:59,039
you had, the guys that played together, the guys that

770
00:34:59,119 --> 00:35:01,159
were maybe as first. I don't want to say on

771
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:04,679
selfish because because I feel like that's not a skill set,

772
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,679
is what it is, guys of that the skill set's

773
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:11,079
not there. I feel that is what's hurting this team

774
00:35:11,119 --> 00:35:13,840
currently at a moment in time, because they need someone

775
00:35:14,199 --> 00:35:17,480
to slow this pace down and set this offense up.

776
00:35:18,159 --> 00:35:21,519
And sometimes it's not because of rob Right's ability. When

777
00:35:21,519 --> 00:35:23,320
he goes so fast and it doesn't and the team's

778
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:24,880
on the back heels and they get a transition. Now

779
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:27,280
that's his fault. I'm sorry it is. Whether that's blaming

780
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:28,880
on Robert the coach staff, it is like when he

781
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:30,360
doesn't get the foul call when he misses it, when

782
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,280
he goes too fast and you shoot, it's the thirty

783
00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,760
what thirty second shocklock? When you shoot the thirty to

784
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:36,800
thirty five second. When you shoot the ball too fast

785
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,719
five to ten seconds into the shocklock, that's not a

786
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:41,960
good shot or trying to draw fout and it's not

787
00:35:42,039 --> 00:35:43,320
late in the game where you should be doing that.

788
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:45,880
And the team goes the other way, that is on you.

789
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:50,719
Not in sync. That team's cutting to the basket. You

790
00:35:51,039 --> 00:35:52,880
look at him, oh yeah, and you pass the ball.

791
00:35:53,079 --> 00:35:54,480
I get he's hit a three, but come on, man,

792
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:57,119
you know he plays below the basket there rebound. You

793
00:35:57,199 --> 00:35:58,360
know what he's going to do, and you throw it

794
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,320
out of bounds. You put your head up, like when

795
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:04,199
you're not a pass first guy. Guys aren't looking to

796
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:08,639
stay on the perimeter. Friend, that's I'm being serious. That's

797
00:36:08,639 --> 00:36:11,800
why he cuts to the You drive and shoot you

798
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:13,599
know me, just pass the ball. They're like, that's not

799
00:36:13,639 --> 00:36:15,760
normally what happens. And his skill say is that he's

800
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,760
dynamic going downhill. So to me, it's it if Downd's

801
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:21,639
on this team, I believe robin games they would put

802
00:36:21,679 --> 00:36:23,480
down in and it was slowed down. But that's not

803
00:36:23,559 --> 00:36:26,000
the case. So for starting lineup changes, here's my answer.

804
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,400
You need to replace Canard with Dominique. They need something

805
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:31,559
even try it out for a game. Dominique who doesn't

806
00:36:31,599 --> 00:36:35,880
play Dominie, Dominique who doesn't play Dominique. Because everybody gonna say, oh,

807
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:39,760
how about Hidien Boob. Yeah, I hear where you're coming from.

808
00:36:41,199 --> 00:36:44,519
But it's like, I think Dom the guy that wants

809
00:36:44,519 --> 00:36:47,199
to lock in on defense, play the wing, and that

810
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:49,559
can do that also, and that can still shoot the three,

811
00:36:49,559 --> 00:36:51,199
even though Dean can do it too. People don't give

812
00:36:51,199 --> 00:36:52,960
me a push back, and I'm okay with that. Give

813
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:54,760
me your taking your point, but I think Dom is

814
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,079
the guy that hasn't played crazy.

815
00:36:57,199 --> 00:37:02,239
Speaker 4: Stat of the game Kadean Boom scored. He made one

816
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,480
field goal, the three pointer again back to back games.

817
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:06,519
Speaker 2: What okay?

818
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,119
Speaker 4: So, because like when I think of a guy who's

819
00:37:10,119 --> 00:37:12,400
a big who doesn't shoot, I immediately think of like

820
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:15,199
guys like Dwight Howard. The reason you don't shoot is

821
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:18,280
because you can't shoot. The reason you're open is because

822
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:22,840
they want you open. My guess is if it even

823
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:26,559
could shoot the three, we would be seeing him shoot

824
00:37:26,599 --> 00:37:31,840
more threes. True, but it's is now back to back

825
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,079
games where he hits it wide open and I'm not

826
00:37:35,119 --> 00:37:38,079
even gonna lie his stroke doesn't even look bad, like

827
00:37:38,119 --> 00:37:39,000
it doesn't look like a.

828
00:37:39,079 --> 00:37:41,519
Speaker 3: Development, looks nice.

829
00:37:41,679 --> 00:37:44,559
Speaker 4: So I'm so confused of what to make with a

830
00:37:44,679 --> 00:37:46,360
name when he shoots the three, because I'm.

831
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,599
Speaker 3: Like, that doesn't look like it should work, but when

832
00:37:48,639 --> 00:37:50,920
it's still so different. He can guard one through five

833
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:52,119
as well. I don't want to make it seem like

834
00:37:52,159 --> 00:37:54,360
he can't because he can't. But I just feel Dominique

835
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:57,199
is a six to nine wing player. That's his role,

836
00:37:58,119 --> 00:38:00,079
you know, like getting out and that I and he

837
00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:01,039
can't play on the wing too.

838
00:38:01,079 --> 00:38:02,760
Speaker 4: I don't want to He made more threes this year

839
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:05,880
than Dominique, I believe, Yes, that was not on my

840
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:06,400
twenty twenty.

841
00:38:06,519 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 3: Well, let's check that, let's fact check it. Let me

842
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:11,039
not you know, give false information. Let's go right now,

843
00:38:11,079 --> 00:38:13,920
Dominique Diamonde. I don't remember the last time Dominique hit

844
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:17,360
a shot. And I'm not saying that like it's like, oh,

845
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:21,320
he can't shoot. I don't now he's taken two, he's

846
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,519
made to Dominique dia Monde. Going to the stats right now,

847
00:38:24,519 --> 00:38:26,840
and I believe this is wh Kyle Collinsworth was talking about.

848
00:38:27,119 --> 00:38:30,880
I really do. I believe this is the guy year

849
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:32,519
by the year. Here we go, red trick freshman. That's

850
00:38:32,519 --> 00:38:34,079
who he is. Remember he's a retro freshman, just like

851
00:38:34,119 --> 00:38:36,519
that EAM last year. And we don't have any stats

852
00:38:36,559 --> 00:38:38,760
on him on BYU dot com. So I'm going to ESPN.

853
00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:40,599
So if they get upset with me, that's not me.

854
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:42,280
I went to the website, I could not find it.

855
00:38:42,559 --> 00:38:44,400
So now I'm gonna type in Dominique Diamonde.

856
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:49,159
Speaker 2: Dominique has taken he's probably taking this season and.

857
00:38:49,119 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 4: He's made none or sorry, he's taken twelve this season.

858
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:54,639
Speaker 3: He's made to okay, so they both have made the

859
00:38:54,679 --> 00:38:56,559
same amount of peace. Chicking out your pick of poison.

860
00:38:56,639 --> 00:38:58,760
The reason why I'm going with Dominique is the guy

861
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,239
that has bought in defense into the boy Magan doesn't

862
00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:04,760
care if you touch the ball, not saying hadem dust here.

863
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:06,199
I don't want people think I'm saying that, but I

864
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:07,679
think this is a guy that says, if I play

865
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,000
defense for fifteen minutes, I'm okay. This is a guy

866
00:39:10,039 --> 00:39:11,760
that says, I'm gonna go score and grab a rebound

867
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,239
and dunk back on you. I'm gonna run in transition

868
00:39:14,559 --> 00:39:16,159
when you're seeing in the game. Is he not done that,

869
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,519
and Boop has done that too, Adiem has done that,

870
00:39:18,639 --> 00:39:22,400
So I lineup change needs to happen. Brett, I'm saying

871
00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:26,280
it right here. It's coming from me. Kevin Young said

872
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,159
he's not gonna have it. Okay, Well, then are you

873
00:39:28,159 --> 00:39:31,000
gonna play Dominique Moore because you need him when the

874
00:39:31,039 --> 00:39:33,079
offense is not moving? And granted, and let me give

875
00:39:33,119 --> 00:39:35,119
some facts because people a gonna be like, well, you know,

876
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:37,880
Rob Okay, who do they have? Eight? Was gonna be

877
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:39,039
the guy that was gonna be able to run the

878
00:39:39,079 --> 00:39:42,320
offense a little bit injured? Dawson also injured. So I'm

879
00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:43,719
gonna tell you this for the offseason. This is more

880
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,719
offseason talk. You better next year. If you bring in

881
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,400
guys where one of the roles is not they don't

882
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:53,159
have that skill set or that's not the main thing

883
00:39:53,199 --> 00:39:55,000
you bring him in for. Let's go there a better point.

884
00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:57,480
They need to make sure everybody on your bench after them,

885
00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,360
if they were to get hurt, has that skill set

886
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:03,159
opposite of that, because let's be honest, if they bank

887
00:40:03,199 --> 00:40:05,280
on both of those guys going down, no they did not,

888
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:07,119
and now they don't have it. But you know what,

889
00:40:07,159 --> 00:40:09,679
you're accountable for the roster. You put it together, you

890
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,079
and that robust stass, and that's why this is hurtful.

891
00:40:12,079 --> 00:40:14,719
Shout out to Bandonai, Johnny Cash. You're hurting. Fans are

892
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:20,400
and they are the resource allocation, robust roster, coaching staff,

893
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,719
PI chart of accountability. They got nine games to figure

894
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:27,239
it out. They do, But this might get ugly. You're

895
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,800
playing Houston on Saturday. Do you think automatically the problemses

896
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:33,400
are gonna go away? I don't believe. I am not

897
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:35,920
confident this team to beat Houston. I am willing to

898
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,119
go on record right now and say that this team

899
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:40,119
would lose to Houston and have a four game lose

900
00:40:40,119 --> 00:40:41,280
the streak five of the last six.

901
00:40:41,559 --> 00:40:42,159
Speaker 2: I agree.

902
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:44,119
Speaker 3: What do you want me to say? You want me

903
00:40:44,159 --> 00:40:49,199
to say, yeah, no, no, I'm sorry, I have not

904
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:49,960
seen it.

905
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,360
Speaker 4: I feel like usually when we come on and we

906
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,679
do this, like if it's fifty to fifty, I'll usually go.

907
00:40:54,639 --> 00:40:58,679
Speaker 3: Be I don't even think it's seventy thirty.

908
00:40:59,519 --> 00:41:01,039
Speaker 2: I'd probably put it at seventy thirty.

909
00:41:01,039 --> 00:41:03,280
Speaker 3: Thirty said, okay, you're seventy thirty, I'm seventy five to

910
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:05,719
twenty five. So so so we're both right, there at

911
00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:10,360
the same point. Yeah, this one, I mean, this one

912
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,079
hurts because you could have got back on track.

913
00:41:12,079 --> 00:41:15,119
Speaker 2: And here's the other deal, Ron thee B. Houstonton's being

914
00:41:15,119 --> 00:41:17,440
in the league tax tecond Houston.

915
00:41:18,039 --> 00:41:19,280
Speaker 3: I don't think so, I don't think.

916
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,440
Speaker 2: You tell me right now, you're telling me this is

917
00:41:21,519 --> 00:41:22,480
the year you do it.

918
00:41:24,679 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 3: I shouldn't laugh, but I laughed because I don't. I

919
00:41:27,519 --> 00:41:29,400
don't know. I don't know. I don't believe it. I'm

920
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:30,480
not confident.

921
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:33,920
Speaker 2: This this was supposed to be the year Man and I.

922
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,679
Speaker 3: People are gonna tell me, Oh, you're saying that, Oh, Iran,

923
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:39,119
we're fine, We're fine. A It's okay. But no, there's

924
00:41:39,119 --> 00:41:40,960
no don't hit me with the good loss that went

925
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,320
out the window last night. Oh but it's a Quad

926
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:47,639
one team. Stop it, just stop it. This Oklahoma State

927
00:41:47,639 --> 00:41:50,199
team gotta win. It puts them back into bubble consideration.

928
00:41:51,159 --> 00:41:53,239
You're telling me that's a good basketball team. This is

929
00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:58,039
where numbers lie. Yeah no, because honestly, if you got

930
00:41:58,039 --> 00:42:01,320
that one against Oklahoma State, would you be satisfied? Would

931
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:02,719
you be like, oh, yeah, cool, No, You're like, Okay,

932
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:05,360
they gotta go be Baylor. You should beat Oklahoma state,

933
00:42:05,519 --> 00:42:07,679
you should be a bad Baylor team. The only win

934
00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:09,199
that you have in last is you beat a Utah

935
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:12,000
team that is at the bottom of the conference. So

936
00:42:12,039 --> 00:42:13,400
you're telling me you're going to lose to Houston and

937
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,519
then go be Baylor. By the way, stat of the day,

938
00:42:16,559 --> 00:42:18,280
I think Kevin on this eight and six in his

939
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:23,599
time in Big twelve row games. Team's going through right now. Man,

940
00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:26,400
they're going through it. So your question, your question to

941
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:30,199
you is they need to start a lineup change who

942
00:42:30,199 --> 00:42:31,559
would you said, boy the starting lineup?

943
00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,199
Speaker 4: Would I sub out who you're bringing in? They because

944
00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:38,679
they need they need a lineup. So that's like to me,

945
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,559
the easy part is whom I bringing in. The hard

946
00:42:41,599 --> 00:42:43,519
part of that question is whom I bringing out? Okay,

947
00:42:43,519 --> 00:42:44,800
so let's start with who you're bringing it about.

948
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:47,239
Speaker 3: I'm not taking out Richie. I'm not taking out Rob.

949
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:50,760
I think Richie and AJ off limits and KBA those

950
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:54,559
three are so yeah, I'm not taking out the other

951
00:42:54,639 --> 00:42:57,159
two are on the table. I'm not taking out Rob. Okay,

952
00:42:57,239 --> 00:43:00,639
so that I feel if Dalla Hall was on this team,

953
00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:03,079
then there are moments where Rob would go in and

954
00:43:03,119 --> 00:43:05,719
out lading games for dalling because he can slow it down.

955
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:07,360
And maybe I'm wrong and that may people gonna get

956
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:08,800
pushed back round. You don't know a ball. You're wrong

957
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:10,440
on what you talk about. But we saw them do

958
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:12,320
that to Yegor, who was a lot of right. You're

959
00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:13,960
telling me that they're not gonna do that to Rob right.

960
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:15,239
That's why I believe that.

961
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:17,559
Speaker 4: I mean, look, there is a part of me that

962
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:19,360
sits here and feels like.

963
00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:24,159
Speaker 3: Bernard's gonna shorten the stick. But I feel like it's him. Yeah,

964
00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:25,679
and he he's the reason why it's him is there?

965
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:28,440
Let me give you accountability, give you data. He's been

966
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:32,320
playing bad for a minute. Yes, how do we feel

967
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:35,119
about Cannard? Defensively? Though it's hit or miss, it's honestly,

968
00:43:35,159 --> 00:43:36,719
you can't put your finger on it. Would you agree

969
00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:38,920
that it's hit or miss? It's not what I thought

970
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,679
it was gonna be. I agree. I I expected a

971
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:42,360
little bit better.

972
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:45,360
Speaker 4: I mean, Kevin Young called this guy a potential All

973
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:46,320
Big twelve first team.

974
00:43:46,559 --> 00:43:48,280
Speaker 3: I agree with him on that, and I have not

975
00:43:48,559 --> 00:43:51,480
seen it yet. I've seen flashes of it.

976
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:55,159
Speaker 4: Sometimes I feel like, is the light just too bright

977
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:55,840
for Kinnard?

978
00:43:56,159 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 3: Maybe it might be the first year playing you know

979
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,760
in the Big twelve, like, it's definitely don't have the

980
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:02,679
ball in your hand. Bennis mentioned that before. Was it

981
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,199
Ohio Valley Conference. I think he came from I can't run. Yeah,

982
00:44:05,199 --> 00:44:07,440
he was an SIU down where you know what, like

983
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:10,159
four hours away from me now SYU Carbondale.

984
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:15,639
Speaker 4: So Lukies I, I agree with you. I want to

985
00:44:15,639 --> 00:44:17,920
bring in Dominique. But here's the other issue.

986
00:44:18,079 --> 00:44:19,840
Speaker 3: Dominique can't come into FAU the way he does though.

987
00:44:20,119 --> 00:44:22,960
Speaker 2: No I know, but.

988
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:29,719
Speaker 4: One of the things that I hate doing in sports

989
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,599
media is pretending like I know better than the coach.

990
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,239
Speaker 3: This is true, So people listening don't think I'm safe.

991
00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:38,119
Speaker 4: If I'm gonna make a take like this, I want

992
00:44:38,119 --> 00:44:43,719
to be very careful and say, am I sure about

993
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:45,960
this that I feel like I know better than the coach?

994
00:44:46,039 --> 00:44:47,760
Speaker 2: Because let's be honest.

995
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:52,280
Speaker 4: Ron, If Kevin Young knew that putting in Dominique would

996
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:55,960
fix issues, I believe Kevin Young would.

997
00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:56,440
Speaker 2: Have done it.

998
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:58,639
Speaker 3: And maybe that lose to the comment maybe not allowed

999
00:44:58,639 --> 00:45:00,000
to change but switching things up.

1000
00:45:01,679 --> 00:45:03,719
Speaker 4: To me, if Kevin Young's not changing the lineup, it's

1001
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:07,039
because that's not what's best for the team. Yeah, Like,

1002
00:45:08,119 --> 00:45:11,559
which then leads me to say, do you have anything

1003
00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:13,079
that's even worse?

1004
00:45:13,159 --> 00:45:15,679
Speaker 3: Maybe, which because I'm trying to say, spike things up,

1005
00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:16,880
maybe you can get something different.

1006
00:45:17,159 --> 00:45:19,840
Speaker 4: But my point is, like I think, if they're not

1007
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,119
moving in Dominique to the lineup, and if they're not

1008
00:45:22,119 --> 00:45:25,480
giving Dominique more minutes, why is that. It's not because

1009
00:45:25,599 --> 00:45:27,760
it's not because Kevin Young doesn't like what color shoes

1010
00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:33,760
he's wearing. It's because there's clearly an en court, statistical,

1011
00:45:34,639 --> 00:45:38,119
tangible reason Kevin Young hasn't.

1012
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,280
Speaker 3: Changed the lineup and honestly three point shooting when he

1013
00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:41,400
comes in a game of fouls.

1014
00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:44,760
Speaker 4: I've said, I think the reason they keep running ISO

1015
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:48,039
ball with this team is because that's Kevin Young's way

1016
00:45:48,079 --> 00:45:50,519
of telling everybody, this is what we got.

1017
00:45:51,159 --> 00:45:54,679
Speaker 3: Well, this is also what I did in Phoenix with

1018
00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:59,360
oh that's an interesting way with Kevin Booker and Kevin Durant,

1019
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:01,480
this is what I did, and that's why Chris Paul

1020
00:46:01,559 --> 00:46:08,039
got traded and DeAndre Ayton. I'm stretching it, but think

1021
00:46:08,079 --> 00:46:11,760
about how it was running book was they tried to

1022
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:13,840
have dal I said this last year and Ben is

1023
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:16,000
like no one wanted to agree with me, and it's

1024
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,159
not Ben. But they were trying to have Kevin Gung.

1025
00:46:18,199 --> 00:46:19,480
I felt I was trying to have Dallan do the

1026
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,039
Devin book a role of getting the paint below it,

1027
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:24,360
and it just didn't work out the way. And I

1028
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:26,320
was like, that's not Dallan's skill set. He can, but

1029
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:28,760
he he's way better in the pick and roll. He's

1030
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:30,360
a three point shooter, that's what he is. He's not

1031
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:33,320
really a midi guy, which is also when he got Elijah,

1032
00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:34,599
you know, and these other people and they got robbed

1033
00:46:34,599 --> 00:46:37,280
because those guys can't hit the mesa. But and you know,

1034
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,280
Aj and even Richie have to get the media and

1035
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:41,320
he doesn't have the photo like Trevin did you know,

1036
00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:43,280
going to the basket or Richie. So it was tough.

1037
00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:45,679
But look, you and I think if you're going to

1038
00:46:45,679 --> 00:46:48,000
the point of analytics and why he's not on the court,

1039
00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:50,239
the only possible thing I could think of Brett the

1040
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:53,360
reason of why he's not is one thing and one

1041
00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:56,760
thing only, and that thing is because he's not he's

1042
00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:58,639
two or twelve from three because you have to come

1043
00:46:58,679 --> 00:47:02,400
in three and d right. And then also because when

1044
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:05,119
we saw him in the Utah game, three quick fouls.

1045
00:47:05,119 --> 00:47:09,239
Maybe it was two, but immediate the impact was not that.

1046
00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:11,960
Remember when Kevian said, Alexi earned himself a couple of

1047
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:13,719
minutes win the Kansas game because what he do? He

1048
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:15,719
had two threes. You come into you foul that don't

1049
00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:17,519
argue more minutes, that keeps on the bench. I feel

1050
00:47:17,559 --> 00:47:20,719
like the archetype with a lot of these guys the same. Dominique,

1051
00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:21,920
what do we want him to do? We want him

1052
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:24,639
to play defense or shoot the three ball? Alexi Coastitch,

1053
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:26,199
what do we want him to do? We want him

1054
00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:27,960
to shoot the three ball and he can't. What do

1055
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:29,559
we want Kennard Davis to do? We want him to

1056
00:47:29,559 --> 00:47:31,960
shoot the three ball and play defense, but he can't.

1057
00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:36,199
Speaker 4: All the guys that you want to play, I mean

1058
00:47:36,199 --> 00:47:38,760
it's I mean, it's not really a trio because Dominique

1059
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:42,639
hasn't an Alexi haven't played as much as Canard. Dominique

1060
00:47:42,679 --> 00:47:45,599
definitely has it. I mean, same with Tybler Russ, Kelen Russ.

1061
00:47:45,599 --> 00:47:46,960
What do we want him to do? We want him

1062
00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:48,599
to shoot the ball, three ball, play defense.

1063
00:47:48,679 --> 00:47:49,199
Speaker 3: It's true.

1064
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:54,480
Speaker 4: All these guys, we have four guys, we want one

1065
00:47:54,519 --> 00:47:55,440
of them to.

1066
00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:56,320
Speaker 2: Be able to hit the three ball.

1067
00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:58,440
Speaker 3: And play, and they've had moments. Milo had his moment,

1068
00:47:58,480 --> 00:47:59,760
Tyler had his moment, Alexi had.

1069
00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:01,840
Speaker 2: Have even we haven't even talked really about my highway.

1070
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:02,079
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1071
00:48:02,079 --> 00:48:03,760
Speaker 3: I mean, well, that's why JT keep saying this is

1072
00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:06,159
a disappointment, because you would think a guy that played

1073
00:48:06,159 --> 00:48:08,840
overseas with that high level of an IQ, with those

1074
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:11,119
leagus in the most hostile environments had him on the

1075
00:48:11,119 --> 00:48:13,119
show for him. He says that the Big twelve has

1076
00:48:13,159 --> 00:48:15,039
some but not like that, and I agree with him.

1077
00:48:15,039 --> 00:48:17,679
If you watch your league basketball, you would think that

1078
00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:20,880
dude would have not I don't want to say since

1079
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:22,119
the verse he has the wrong word, but you would

1080
00:48:22,119 --> 00:48:25,440
think he would understand the moment and show up in

1081
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:28,039
it because he's been there before. Not seeing that he's

1082
00:48:28,079 --> 00:48:30,239
taking the drawback year two, I think more than year one,

1083
00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:35,639
and it's tough right now, it's very, very tough. I

1084
00:48:35,639 --> 00:48:37,000
don't know what it turned to. And look, I don't

1085
00:48:37,039 --> 00:48:38,559
know better than they coach. I'm not saying that, but

1086
00:48:38,599 --> 00:48:41,400
I'm saying something he's to change, agree, because whatever's working

1087
00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:42,320
ain't been working.

1088
00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:45,320
Speaker 4: But again, we say change like they can swap something

1089
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:48,639
in and swap something out. This isn't like, hey, my

1090
00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:52,159
phone battery died. I have another battery over here. They

1091
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:54,079
may not have another battery.

1092
00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:56,000
Speaker 3: And that's tough if that's just what it is and

1093
00:48:56,159 --> 00:48:57,480
looks If not, why.

1094
00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:00,760
Speaker 4: Wouldn't they have switched if they clearly had that worked,

1095
00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:03,440
Because like, legitimately, think about it, it's so easy for

1096
00:49:03,559 --> 00:49:06,400
us all to say, well, why don't they swap somebody out? Okay, cool,

1097
00:49:07,079 --> 00:49:11,360
So then let's think, let's say that dominique in practice

1098
00:49:11,559 --> 00:49:15,000
is just raining threes and dunking on everybody and play

1099
00:49:15,039 --> 00:49:18,400
incredible defense. What reason would Kevin Young have to have

1100
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:19,719
to say still not playing you?

1101
00:49:20,639 --> 00:49:20,920
Speaker 3: None?

1102
00:49:22,079 --> 00:49:25,159
Speaker 4: Again, unless it's just like for some reason, he's just

1103
00:49:25,199 --> 00:49:26,760
like I don't like you as a person and I'm

1104
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:30,039
not playing, which we know that's not the case. So

1105
00:49:30,199 --> 00:49:33,320
then you have to think, why is it doing itause

1106
00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:38,519
he doesn't believe that that is a solution. Now, the

1107
00:49:38,559 --> 00:49:45,000
only other possibility is well, and maybe it's so simple

1108
00:49:45,039 --> 00:49:50,079
as like because mag did. It doesn't necessarily make sense

1109
00:49:50,119 --> 00:49:53,159
on paper, but it kind of just gives everybody a

1110
00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:55,760
shock to the system so much that it gives everybody

1111
00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:59,880
a little jumper cable jolt, And statistically, again, it doesn't

1112
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,280
makes sense. And that's why that's the only reason I

1113
00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:04,960
think Kevin Jung said that in media availability the other day,

1114
00:50:05,360 --> 00:50:10,039
because he concedes production wise, it doesn't make sense. The

1115
00:50:10,079 --> 00:50:12,320
only reason we would do it is to give everybody

1116
00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:15,239
a change of routine, and maybe that wakes everybody up.

1117
00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:17,800
But again, it's easy to just say, why don't we

1118
00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:19,920
switch the lineup. I'm sure that's what fans are saying.

1119
00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:22,280
Why don't they play somebody else? Think about it. Why

1120
00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:24,199
wouldn't Kevin Young play him if he knew it was

1121
00:50:24,199 --> 00:50:24,960
going to make a difference.

1122
00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:26,119
Speaker 3: This is true, and it goes back to this comment.

1123
00:50:26,119 --> 00:50:28,119
It's not necessarily lineup change because he probably already thought

1124
00:50:28,119 --> 00:50:30,440
of that, but can he play himself into a situation?

1125
00:50:30,519 --> 00:50:32,159
But it was different, and I brought him a what

1126
00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:34,239
and I thought about the point of speaking, what had

1127
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:38,400
how many years of playing college basketball? Dominie's good but

1128
00:50:39,119 --> 00:50:40,519
fresh up? That's tough.

1129
00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:44,000
Speaker 4: You can't because I had this conversation with fans the other.

1130
00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:45,679
Speaker 3: Day with the guy that's that has played.

1131
00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:48,679
Speaker 4: You cannot just say, why don't they do what they

1132
00:50:48,679 --> 00:50:51,559
did last year where they bring it for Cannon? No, yes,

1133
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:54,880
what both Boet and Cannon. I hate to say it,

1134
00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:57,599
are more talented than anybody else you have on the bench,

1135
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:00,880
both of those the way they're playing. Yes, So it's

1136
00:51:01,119 --> 00:51:03,199
it's not as simple as well, why don't they switch?

1137
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:05,400
You had a deeper team. I don't know how many

1138
00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:07,360
times I have to say this to fans. You had

1139
00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:10,559
a ten times deeper team last year than you have

1140
00:51:10,679 --> 00:51:13,159
this year. Now, your ceiling is higher this year because

1141
00:51:13,199 --> 00:51:15,320
you have more top heavy this year, but you were

1142
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:17,960
one deeper last year than you were this year.

1143
00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:20,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Ben brought up to the point like, are

1144
00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:22,760
guys really more talented? Are they more? You know what's

1145
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:24,039
the word? If I got the word that was, you

1146
00:51:24,159 --> 00:51:28,400
say more? You know, like basically seasoned? Are they more?

1147
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:30,480
And sure you can say that, but then that's on

1148
00:51:30,519 --> 00:51:32,320
the coaching staff to go get guys at a season.

1149
00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:34,519
Speaker 4: I mean, you thought you did, right, Like we thought

1150
00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:37,519
Jennard was seasoned. We thought Tyler Russ.

1151
00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:39,199
Speaker 3: Was season I mean, and they had season guards, they

1152
00:51:39,239 --> 00:51:41,800
had Dawson, they had Nate and they lost them. They

1153
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:44,599
did they had because guard plays the most important tournament,

1154
00:51:44,599 --> 00:51:45,960
played down a stretch and they lost it.

1155
00:51:46,599 --> 00:51:50,440
Speaker 4: I don't want to be like the white flag surrender guy,

1156
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:53,960
but but I also think like you just may not

1157
00:51:54,199 --> 00:51:56,719
have any tools left in the belt and look.

1158
00:51:56,519 --> 00:51:58,159
Speaker 3: At the calls that they're not getting right now they're

1159
00:51:58,159 --> 00:52:00,400
gonna get for sure. When the NCAA turned We talked

1160
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:04,039
to David Hunsinger. Yes, the Devoid of Cowboys. He doesn't

1161
00:52:04,079 --> 00:52:06,039
like that. Actually, the Big Twelve allows you to be physical,

1162
00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:08,719
and then in the tournament they actually switch it up

1163
00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:10,519
and they call those right check because they're going to

1164
00:52:10,519 --> 00:52:12,639
do that. Ben is right, and David, they are going

1165
00:52:12,679 --> 00:52:14,039
to do that. I don't necessarily know if I like

1166
00:52:14,079 --> 00:52:15,800
that either, but it is gonna bold well. But you

1167
00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:17,320
need to get in momentum so you can make it.

1168
00:52:17,559 --> 00:52:19,760
Speaker 2: Let me ask you this does it.

1169
00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:22,960
Speaker 4: Let's say they officiated the games the same way they

1170
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:24,920
do in the tournament as they do in the Big Twelve.

1171
00:52:25,199 --> 00:52:28,559
That makes that makes you automatically feel great about this team.

1172
00:52:28,639 --> 00:52:31,679
No no, no, no, no, right, that doesn't solve the issues.

1173
00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:34,440
Speaker 2: It doesn't, So I agree, But what is that? Okay?

1174
00:52:34,519 --> 00:52:37,719
Speaker 4: So let's say that's five six points a game more

1175
00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:41,039
from aj who's already scoring out of his mind. That

1176
00:52:41,119 --> 00:52:44,559
doesn't solve your solutions on this team, in fact, may

1177
00:52:44,559 --> 00:52:46,440
get other guys even in more foul trouble.

1178
00:52:46,559 --> 00:52:49,119
Speaker 3: It can't. We gotta go to break but Pollar the

1179
00:52:49,159 --> 00:52:51,000
day I change, I change it. We'll have Brett put

1180
00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:53,840
that out on Cridal Benjamin all over day ken BYU

1181
00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:56,239
still turn it around with nine games left? Yes or no?

1182
00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:58,920
I believe they can. They still got time, but you

1183
00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:01,519
gotta start on Saturday. But it's gonna be so tough.

1184
00:53:01,599 --> 00:53:04,000
They're gonna have to show me. And then question of

1185
00:53:04,039 --> 00:53:07,440
the day, do you want to see a starting lineup? Change?

1186
00:53:07,559 --> 00:53:09,599
