Speaker 1: It's time for coffee and company.
Speaker 2: Fueled by Thornton's on Sports Talk seven ninety Holy.
Speaker 3: Crap, I don't know who the hell we think when
Speaker 3: we are.
Speaker 4: Get off our show, idiots, the kids are crying or
Speaker 4: turn off your countures are.
Speaker 1: Screwing it up. Gold Play inter Murals, Brother, gold Play
Speaker 1: inn Murals. They're supposed to be mature adults, but they're
Speaker 1: really not. Who's the kid here? Who's the kid here?
Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? Now? Here's nick coffee?
Speaker 3: You know. I like to think over the years, you
Speaker 3: guys have been able to learn about me, and I
Speaker 3: don't know how interesting I am, but if you've been
Speaker 3: listening loyally, then thank you. But I learned about some
Speaker 3: of you guys today, and that is that some of
Speaker 3: you guys are really childish, really perverted. To be honest
Speaker 3: with you, your mother would be ashamed, I think, because.
Speaker 5: That boat has sailed for me. Really, yeah, she'd be proud,
Speaker 5: I think. So maybe she's just a good liar.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean she should be proud. If not, I'll
Speaker 3: talk to her, Yeah, because I please talk to my mom.
Speaker 3: Nobody nobody can can guess up the fellas quite quite
Speaker 3: like me. But anyways, I throw it out just being
Speaker 3: open and honest. I'm all about transparency. I mean, I'm
Speaker 3: I'm gonna rans what, I'm gonna open book. In fact,
Speaker 3: I talked about the trends in sports, uh topic today
Speaker 3: on news radio eight forty. A lot of Trump's guy
Speaker 3: Trump getting Trump making it clear he doesn't want people
Speaker 3: that were born a man playing in women's sports. Also,
Speaker 3: there's an egg shortage going on Guantanamo Bay. I mean
Speaker 3: I was, I was a hard hitting newsman earlier. Now
Speaker 3: I get to talk sports, which I love doing it. Yeah,
Speaker 3: But but you know, we got a serious situation going
Speaker 3: on here because you know, I mentioned that I've been
Speaker 3: thinking about Chucky Hepburn's growing all day. It's been on
Speaker 3: my mind, and you know, here I am just concerned
Speaker 3: about a star player for Louisville that has helped this
Speaker 3: program get back going in the right direction. Right. He's
Speaker 3: been instrumental. You're talking about Chucky. He would never Chucky is,
Speaker 3: without questioning, the best player on this team. He has
Speaker 3: been the most important piece to this team. And Pat Kelcey,
Speaker 3: you know, he's running the show and it's his revival,
Speaker 3: but his key piece is the one and only Chucky Hepburn,
Speaker 3: who is one of the best point guards in the country.
Speaker 3: And I don't know if this is all for nothing,
Speaker 3: but let's just lay it out. So last night, Louisville wins,
Speaker 3: and I haven't given much thought about the game itself,
Speaker 3: just because of the of the worry. And I'll admit it,
Speaker 3: hands up, like I have no clue if he's dealing
Speaker 3: with something, if it was more just I mean, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna lay out the facts, but I also don't want
Speaker 3: people to think that my worry is in any way
Speaker 3: like me just not saying something because I'm not supposed to.
Speaker 3: But I have any kind of information. I don't know nothing.
Speaker 3: I don't know if anybody really knows what's going on
Speaker 3: with him. But Louisville clearly would be a much different
Speaker 3: team without Chucky Hepburn. And they've had already a lot
Speaker 3: of injuries that we've kind of been able to forget
Speaker 3: about because they've played well and kind of rounded into
Speaker 3: form and really became a different version of themselves without
Speaker 3: Corn Johnson, without Case and Pryor so to know, you've
Speaker 3: already had the bad luck with injuries. Hopefully that that
Speaker 3: bad energy with injuries is gone, but we shall see.
Speaker 3: But let's let's just back it up for those that
Speaker 3: maybe weren't locked in last night, and if you weren't
Speaker 3: totally get it at place was empty. I have never
Speaker 3: watched a Louisville basketball game on the road that was
Speaker 3: more empty than that arena last night. In fact, I
Speaker 3: think it looked worse than when Louisville had empty seats
Speaker 3: at the um Center many many many games during the
Speaker 3: Kenny Paine era. So Louisville wins big, they put they
Speaker 3: put it on him in second half and actually ended
Speaker 3: up playing better well, I think they they kind of
Speaker 3: locked in and and in no way would anybody claim
Speaker 3: that Louisville's a better team without Chucky hepburn, that's nonsense.
Speaker 3: But when he went out and didn't come back in,
Speaker 3: that's when Louisville really put together a couple of big
Speaker 3: runs to kind of bury this Boston College team. And
Speaker 3: they go on and again win without without much trouble
Speaker 3: at all. But about let's see, let me see if
Speaker 3: I can, if I can see how much time was
Speaker 3: left in the game when this happened. It was early
Speaker 3: ish in the second half, and and Chucky ends up
Speaker 3: going out and without watching closely, I initially thought that
Speaker 3: he got hit in his private parts, right, he got
Speaker 3: hit in get in the nuts, That's what I thought.
Speaker 3: And if you are a man, you know what that's like.
Speaker 3: I mean, even if you're not a man and you're
Speaker 3: a woman, you probably you know, maybe you're I'm sure
Speaker 3: you have friends your husband like you. You know, it's something
Speaker 3: that will really you know, it'll it'll get and you
Speaker 3: need to kind of go recover kind of. You know,
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's walking off or what it is,
Speaker 3: but like I thought, he just accidentally took like an
Speaker 3: inadvertent hand or knee or foot something to the groin
Speaker 3: and he just needed to go to the bench because
Speaker 3: you know, got to walk it off, shake it off,
Speaker 3: whatever it may be. And he didn't seem like he
Speaker 3: was really bothered. And then you know, he seemed to
Speaker 3: be kind of like laughing on the bench, and he
Speaker 3: stayed on the bench and he cheered on his teammates
Speaker 3: as they put together a really good run and of course,
Speaker 3: you know, buried that Boston College team and they didn't
Speaker 3: need Chucky to come back in the game. But two
Speaker 3: things that have since, you know, worried me, and I
Speaker 3: don't know if I'd be as worried if it wasn't
Speaker 3: for the fact that, you know, Chucky's the most important
Speaker 3: piece to this team and we already have had two
Speaker 3: injuries and that doesn't really have anything to do with this.
Speaker 3: I mean, this is months later and I don't think
Speaker 3: any of these injuries have I mean, they're not related
Speaker 3: by any means. It's just bad luck. So the worry
Speaker 3: is that we found out after the game that he
Speaker 3: he didn't come back in. But it was not because
Speaker 3: it wasn't because they just wanted to rest him, and
Speaker 3: it wasn't because of you know, precautionary stuff. He didn't
Speaker 3: come back in because Pat Kelsey told us that the
Speaker 3: medical staff, the trainers, whoever it was, told him that
Speaker 3: that Chucky is unavailable, like he's not he's not cleared
Speaker 3: to go back in because of whatever it is he's
Speaker 3: dealing with that that had him come out of the game.
Speaker 3: I don't have any update. Well, we'll know more tomorrow
Speaker 3: that just.
Speaker 4: To clarify on Chucky, could he have come back in
Speaker 4: when he came back to the bench, he was still
Speaker 4: wearing his uniform.
Speaker 2: Was that a decision? You made or was he not.
Speaker 4: I was told by the medical people that he couldn't return.
Speaker 5: Okay, they said questionable.
Speaker 4: So I just you were up by a decent amount
Speaker 4: at that point. So I just didn't know if there
Speaker 4: is there a body part, even a sign.
Speaker 3: I'm not the medical guy, so there's no more more
Speaker 3: tomorrow when I don't.
Speaker 2: Know, I don't know. The game just ended.
Speaker 3: I didn't know a lot of a lot of time
Speaker 3: to talk with the medical people yet, so I mentioned
Speaker 3: to start the show. I learned about some of you
Speaker 3: guys today that instead of just realizing I'm concerned about
Speaker 3: our star player that of course has been a big
Speaker 3: piece to this fun season we've had so far, and
Speaker 3: I'm thinking about it's growing, hoping it's okay. You guys
Speaker 3: were just perps about it. So again I learned that
Speaker 3: about you guys, and we're also learning about Pat Kelsey
Speaker 3: in his first year, and I think, deep down that
Speaker 3: was just the honest truth. I think he absolutely was
Speaker 3: just telling you the facts that he was told by
Speaker 3: the training staff that CHUCKI could not go, he wasn't
Speaker 3: cleared to play, and he didn't get any kind of
Speaker 3: update because you know, he was trying to finish the game.
Speaker 3: So I think that's the truth. But because of my
Speaker 3: worry and because I know how big of a hit
Speaker 3: it would be for this team if in fact, he
Speaker 3: is hurt and maybe misses some time, I'm overthinking it, right.
Speaker 3: I think it was an honest answer, but I'm thinking,
Speaker 3: get okay. That voice sounds like a voice of concern.
Speaker 3: It sounds like he's worried. And if he is worried,
Speaker 3: that that's, I mean, makes total sense. He should be worried.
Speaker 3: It's a star player. So I have no clue if
Speaker 3: that's just I mean, it could have been. Maybe if
Speaker 3: Chucky came back in and played and finished strong, and
Speaker 3: he was asked and he was asked about and he
Speaker 3: knew Chucky was healthy and he was asked about it,
Speaker 3: maybe he would say the same thing. I don't know.
Speaker 3: I don't I have no clue. But I also heard
Speaker 3: his radio interview that he did after the game with
Speaker 3: Bob Bobono, and again he said really the same thing.
Speaker 3: But because I am someone who is paranoid and I
Speaker 3: worry more than I ever should about everything in life,
Speaker 3: I worry about everything. That's just an issue. I got
Speaker 3: to get better at but it kind of still sounded
Speaker 3: like maybe he was worried. And again, that's all normal, right,
Speaker 3: I just want to know what's the status with Chucky
Speaker 3: and we haven't heard anything just yet. There will be
Speaker 3: a press conference tomorrow. Kelsey's media availability will be I
Speaker 3: believe around. Let's see. I know we got an email
Speaker 3: earlier about it from U of L sid the Lovely
Speaker 3: Dana Brown and uh yeah, Pat Kelsey's gonna talk tomorrow
Speaker 3: at eleven am. So he'll be asked and we may
Speaker 3: not get any kind of an answer. He may say, look,
Speaker 3: he's he's he's a little sore. They're dealing with it.
Speaker 3: I'm not sure what's because coaches can always do what
Speaker 3: Kelsey does, even if they just want to use it
Speaker 3: as an excuse. I think he's just giving you the
Speaker 3: honest truth. But when it comes to injuries, you can
Speaker 3: always just say, hey, I know they're trying to get
Speaker 3: him back healthy. I'm not exactly sure what the exact
Speaker 3: issue is because I'm not a doctor that kind of stuff.
Speaker 3: Like again, you can, you could do that if you want,
Speaker 3: And maybe some people would say, hey, that's weak. You
Speaker 3: know more, why don't you tell us what they don't
Speaker 3: have to. And really, as much as I would love
Speaker 3: to know, because I'm you know, it's my I would
Speaker 3: love to know if my team's gonna be okay or not,
Speaker 3: it's not really our business, to be honest with you.
Speaker 3: So anyways, that's where we are. And I'm not gonna
Speaker 3: make it the entire S show today because that wouldn't
Speaker 3: be any fun. I want to have some fun. But
Speaker 3: to see the replay, you can tell this was a
Speaker 3: non contact thing that kind of tripped him up. And he,
Speaker 3: I mean he he kind of stopped in his tracks
Speaker 3: and and couldn't really do anything. And then he went
Speaker 3: back to the locker room briefly and then came back
Speaker 3: out and seemed to be in good spirits. I mean
Speaker 3: he he was cheering on his teammates. At some point
Speaker 3: he cracked a smile, a little bit of a laugh.
Speaker 3: I don't know if maybe the fellows on the on
Speaker 3: the on the bench were giving him a hard time
Speaker 3: because maybe they thought also that he got hit in
Speaker 3: the in the you know what. But no contact at all,
Speaker 3: and just it just seems like kind of like a
Speaker 3: freak type of thing. And it may be absolutely nothing,
Speaker 3: but you can't you can't be surprised that that that
Speaker 3: myself and other Louisville fans are are thinking about it. Austin,
Speaker 3: go look at the video that I just posted on
Speaker 3: on my Twitter, and again, we're not we're not doctors.
Speaker 3: We're not we're not trained. And by the way, even
Speaker 3: if you are a doctor, I don't even know if
Speaker 3: you'd be able to look at.
Speaker 5: That and know I'm not a holiday and express last
Speaker 5: night either.
Speaker 3: But just the non contact part of it, and to
Speaker 3: see that it kind of I mean, it'd be different
Speaker 3: if he fell over and was in pain. It wasn't that,
Speaker 3: but something happened and it kind of you can tell
Speaker 3: scared him and he didn't even attempt to run back
Speaker 3: on defense or anything like that, and that has me worried.
Speaker 3: But again I guess in fact, I know, here's what
Speaker 3: I do know. Worrying about it isn't going to change anything.
Speaker 3: But I'm having a hard time not worrying about it
Speaker 3: because the loss to Georgia Tech gets stunk, right. Nobody
Speaker 3: wants to lose at all, and you know that you're
Speaker 3: a better team than Georgia Tech, and you just you
Speaker 3: know they got you. So last night I thought Louisville
Speaker 3: actually came out worse in the game against Boston College
Speaker 3: than they did against Georgia Tech. Now, they they made
Speaker 3: a lot of shots, and clearly they ended up putting
Speaker 3: together overall a pretty good performance and they were able
Speaker 3: to kind of run away with it. Again. You won
Speaker 3: eighty four to fifty eight eight in a game that
Speaker 3: really honestly could have been worse. I mean, Louisville was
Speaker 3: missing some shots there towards the end. They were only
Speaker 3: one of seven in their last eight shots, so or yeah,
Speaker 3: they only they only made one of their last seven shots,
Speaker 3: I should say. So watching them last night and then
Speaker 3: having that worry about Chucky, it just kind of made
Speaker 3: me think back to how fun the season has been,
Speaker 3: especially once they got rolling in January, and you know,
Speaker 3: the last night evening. To me, Chucky even last night
Speaker 3: before he went out, was already was having a good game.
Speaker 3: Was five of ten from the floor to a four
Speaker 3: from three point range, had a few assists, and you know,
Speaker 3: didn't have a single turnover. I mean, he's one of
Speaker 3: the best point guards in the country. We all know that,
Speaker 3: and it's been a hell of a ride watching him play.
Speaker 3: And I hope we get to watch him play on
Speaker 3: Saturday whenever they host Miami. And again, this could all
Speaker 3: be for nothing. Maybe maybe we find out soon, maybe
Speaker 3: we find out tomorrow. Oh he's fine, no big deal,
Speaker 3: he'd be He's good to go. They just wanted to
Speaker 3: They just wanted to hold him out and see if
Speaker 3: in fact, you know, they didn't want to have him
Speaker 3: out there. And I don't. And that's where we need
Speaker 3: to reach out to our friends doctor Ben's and doctor macroy,
Speaker 3: because they could they could educate us and help us
Speaker 3: when it comes to these kind of things. If it
Speaker 3: is a groin strain, which I've seen some speculating that
Speaker 3: that's what they think it is. And again we're talking
Speaker 3: about people who you know, want to play doctor on
Speaker 3: the internet. And I don't say that to poke fun
Speaker 3: because look, I'm doing the same thing. I have no clue,
Speaker 3: but I'm just trying to figure out what it might
Speaker 3: what it might be, and it you know, what do
Speaker 3: I know, but that that is the type of injury
Speaker 3: given what we saw, that I could see being something
Speaker 3: that might happen, and that, you know, a groin strain,
Speaker 3: it sounds like can be can be mild, can be
Speaker 3: pretty severe. But it can certainly linger. I mean, groin
Speaker 3: injuries are are tricky because you can you can you
Speaker 3: can linger, you can play on it, or you can
Speaker 3: have surgery. But obviously having surgery would put you on
Speaker 3: the shelf and you wouldn't be able to play for
Speaker 3: a long time. So who knows. And I already feel
Speaker 3: like I've I've given too much time even talking about it.
Speaker 3: But it's a big deal. I mean, totally different vibe
Speaker 3: for me last night when I hear Pat say in
Speaker 3: the press conference that he was told by the medical
Speaker 3: staff that Chucky couldn't come back in So we shall,
Speaker 3: we shall see, but I will I will mention. I mean,
Speaker 3: this is something I mentioned on the on the show
Speaker 3: this morning. On has I would say that if they
Speaker 3: knew that they had something bad, we would know by now,
Speaker 3: like meaning if it was like severe to where he
Speaker 3: can't play anymore, he's out for the year, he's going
Speaker 3: to require surgery. Uh, And I look, you never know,
Speaker 3: but just the overall demeanor of him made it seem
Speaker 3: as if he wasn't like in pain, and he was
Speaker 3: in good spirits. He didn't seem overly concerned. But he
Speaker 3: may not know what the issue is and again you
Speaker 3: got to keep in mind when he when he got hurt. However,
Speaker 3: it happened that no contact situation to where they stopped
Speaker 3: play and he walked to the bench, you know, it
Speaker 3: stopped him in his tracks and he couldn't He didn't
Speaker 3: run like he just he kind of gingerly walked over
Speaker 3: to the bench. And and and that's that's all we saw.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, like I said, we're not we're not doctors, but.
Speaker 6: Just played on the radio, right it it looks like
Speaker 6: some sort of some sort of groin pool or something.
Speaker 6: And like you see him like I mean, he finishes
Speaker 6: the layup in that layup. It was nice lay up,
Speaker 6: by the way, it is very nice layup. Nice little
Speaker 6: lay Yeah, and then like kind of goes back to
Speaker 6: look like he's gonna get in position for a rebound.
Speaker 6: That's when he feels it so rather than kind of
Speaker 6: one like he's splitting his legs to try to set
Speaker 6: his foot so he can get in position for a rebound.
Speaker 6: That's when it felt it. Seeing it live, I thought
Speaker 6: maybe he might see nothing. When I saw it live, right,
Speaker 6: I thought if anything. Once he came down, I thought, oh,
Speaker 6: he probably got punched down there and just watching Holly.
Speaker 6: He wasn't touched it, just only when he tried the
Speaker 6: quick action move to get him positioned for a rebound.
Speaker 6: That's when he seemed to react to it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, there's been like no indication from anybody.
Speaker 3: And this is where I get to really overthinking it
Speaker 3: because I also have wondered throughout the day if they
Speaker 3: knew it wasn't serious. Don't you think because they know
Speaker 3: how much we love him meeting this team, that they
Speaker 3: give us some kind of a hint that everything's going
Speaker 3: to be okay. Just tell us everything's going to be okay.
Speaker 3: That's all we want to hear. But they may not
Speaker 3: know if everything's going to be okay, and that's I mean,
Speaker 3: that's that's part of the process here. Maybe they're going
Speaker 3: to get some imaging done today and figure it out.
Speaker 3: But we'll find out, well, I know, I don't.
Speaker 5: We won't.
Speaker 3: I mean, we may not find out anything because again,
Speaker 3: Patt will talk tomorrow in the morning, but he may
Speaker 3: not have any update. And even if he does, he
Speaker 3: may choose to kind of just keep that between Chucky
Speaker 3: and the medical staff, the trainers, because you know, he
Speaker 3: has every right to do that. So anyways, it's coffee
Speaker 3: and Company. We are fueled by Thornton's. I'll try to
Speaker 3: lift the spirits for the rest of the show today
Speaker 3: because you know, I don't want to be sad. We
Speaker 3: want to bring the good energy. Or almost to the
Speaker 3: end of the week. We got the super Bowl coming
Speaker 3: up here in a few days, and I hope Chucky's
Speaker 3: Growing's okay. It's coffee and Company again. We are fuel
Speaker 3: about Thornton's right here on Sports Talk seven.
Speaker 2: Ninety there's a message in the way now back to
Speaker 2: coffee and Company, fueled by Thornton's on Sports Talk seven
Speaker 2: ninety eight.
Speaker 1: How that's what I become.
Speaker 7: And it looks like I'm losing this fight in your world.
Speaker 7: I mean, so I'm trying not to understand, and it's.
Speaker 1: My heart that's working down this long.
Speaker 7: Distance slides and night.
Speaker 3: The song is great. I mean, there's a lot of
Speaker 3: people in life that I miss that are no longer
Speaker 3: with us, just people I haven't seen in a while.
Speaker 3: And there's nobody that really comes to mind when I
Speaker 3: hear this song. But I feel it, you know what I.
Speaker 6: Mean, Like, I, yeah, who is this? This is John
Speaker 6: Waite he's gonna be at Bourbonham beyond this year. Well
Speaker 6: he means it when he says he's missing. You know,
Speaker 6: this song reminds me of And here's what's crazy, because
Speaker 6: this is one of those things that.
Speaker 3: I wish it wasn't the case. I don't want to
Speaker 3: think of this movie because it's a great movie, but
Speaker 3: like it just it's weird.
Speaker 5: Okay, But the scene with.
Speaker 3: Jonah Hill and the who's the hunk guy that's in
Speaker 3: like the Terrible Actor, but he's in a lot of stuff.
Speaker 3: Channing Tatum, Yes, twenty second or twenty second Jump Street
Speaker 3: that came out a long time ago.
Speaker 5: To the second one or the first one?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know which. I don't I don't remember.
Speaker 3: Like there's two of them, and they're both actually really good.
Speaker 5: I don't think I've watched the second one, but watched
Speaker 5: the first one.
Speaker 3: The second one is the one that has ice Cube
Speaker 3: in it, right?
Speaker 5: Or is he in the first one?
Speaker 8: He's in the first one too, Okay, he's he's like
Speaker 8: the guy that they report to. Okay, because yeah, and
Speaker 8: you're right, I guess he is in both of them.
Speaker 8: But uh, that movie is I mean, it's one of
Speaker 8: those kind of stupid comedies that like, I can't tell
Speaker 8: you manute it's a great movie, but like it's like
Speaker 8: the perfect level of funny.
Speaker 5: Yeah good kind of buddy cop movie.
Speaker 3: It's a really really good, a really good era there
Speaker 3: for Jonah Hill. I mean, he's still very talented. And yeah,
Speaker 3: didn't he kind of get canceled because he was mean
Speaker 3: to his girlfriend or something?
Speaker 5: Did any Oh? I don't know.
Speaker 3: I mean I shouldn't say kind of get but like
Speaker 3: I think, uh, he made a comment about like his
Speaker 3: girlfriend's appearance, and it was very heavy in the in
Speaker 3: the when everybody was getting canceled for for anything.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, cancel culture.
Speaker 3: But whenever, whenever, Channing Tatum like decides he's not gonna
Speaker 3: just stay undercover. He's gonna actually try to live the
Speaker 3: life of being a college football player. And he's partying
Speaker 3: with the boys, and uh, they kind of break up
Speaker 3: Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill do in the movie, okay,
Speaker 3: and Jonah Hill's kind of just walking around without his partner.
Speaker 3: There used to be detectives together, and now he's he's
Speaker 3: by himself and they're playing that song and it's just
Speaker 3: it's again. It's a perfect stupid funny really works with me.
Speaker 3: I guess it speaks to ye my stupidity. But yeah, good, Yeah,
Speaker 3: there was so twenty one Jump Street came out in
Speaker 3: twenty twelve, and then they did twenty second Jump Street
Speaker 3: in twenty fourteen, rare comedies that actually, you know, both
Speaker 3: of them were good and in fact a lot of
Speaker 3: I mean, I this is good timing here, because I
Speaker 3: don't remember what how Oh yeah, we were talking this
Speaker 3: morning on the on the on the Morning Show on
Speaker 3: HAS that Justin Thomas is going to be in Happy
Speaker 3: Gilmore too, and I love Happy Gilmore so much that
Speaker 3: I have a little bit of like a fear that, like,
Speaker 3: don't do anything to change how I feel about my
Speaker 3: favorite movie potentially of all time. And I'm trying to
Speaker 3: it because I'm gonna watch it, but I'm trying to
Speaker 3: just accept the fact that, like it's not what this is.
Speaker 3: You know, they're going to have some fun, It'll probably
Speaker 3: be okay, but like, just if I go in trying
Speaker 3: to compare it to the first one that I'm I'm
Speaker 3: I'm going to automatically be disappointed.
Speaker 5: Yeah you can't do Yeah.
Speaker 3: So anyways, we brought up the whole topic about how
Speaker 3: often do you need equals in comedy movies? And it's rare,
Speaker 3: so a lot of sequels, and if there's a third
Speaker 3: movie or a fourth it's usually like an action movie
Speaker 3: or like a Marvel kind of thing. What's the other one,
Speaker 3: Marvel and d Yeah, DC and Marvel. I definitely missed
Speaker 3: out on that. I'm in the minority because I know
Speaker 3: those are super popular movies and whatnot, but I just
Speaker 3: I don't.
Speaker 5: See kind of sucks Marvels always going to be the king.
Speaker 3: I know nothing about it. I just know that those
Speaker 3: are really really like when they when they make one
Speaker 3: of those movies and they put it in theaters, they
Speaker 3: make a lot of money.
Speaker 5: See like the DC and like the like the Superman
Speaker 5: and like the Flash movies. Those are all d C.
Speaker 6: And those aren't the ones that are like very highly regarded,
Speaker 6: like the ones with the Avengers.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and like Iron Man and Captain America and Black Panther.
Speaker 5: That's all Marvel and they seem to be more cinematic.
Speaker 3: Yes, And those are the ones that like clearly are
Speaker 3: insanely popular. So the other like comedies that have that
Speaker 3: have that have had a second movie that you feel like, okay,
Speaker 3: not only was it worth doing it, that one was
Speaker 3: just as good, maybe better than this than the first one.
Speaker 3: And this one, this is kind of the number There
Speaker 3: was a listener that sent in a link that showed
Speaker 3: all these comedies that had a sequel, and the number
Speaker 3: one on this ranker list was a movie that I
Speaker 3: oftentimes forget it is considered it it is a sequel,
Speaker 3: but it's but because of the whole the whole thing,
Speaker 3: like it's kind of it's just different. And that's the
Speaker 3: National Lampoon's Vacation movies because the original Vaker, the original
Speaker 3: vacation was I don't remember which one it was, but
Speaker 3: was that when they go to Europe maybe, And then
Speaker 3: of course there was Christmas Vacation, but that's kind of
Speaker 3: like its own movie, but technically it was the second
Speaker 3: movie that had the family, the Griswolds, right, So that one,
Speaker 3: I mean, that's one of the best movies of all time,
Speaker 3: Christmas Vacation. So there's that one. And then I don't
Speaker 3: know if I totally agree, but the second Austin Powers,
Speaker 3: like that was good, but I'm not sure if I
Speaker 3: would say that like it's as good as the first.
Speaker 3: But still it was a good movie. It was rather popular.
Speaker 5: And then.
Speaker 3: This is something that I didn't even realize until this morning.
Speaker 3: I don't think I've ever seen the original Bad Boys
Speaker 3: Like Bad Boys Too is really when it kind of
Speaker 3: became a thing for me, and I think, and I
Speaker 3: think Bad Boys Too is the better movie of all
Speaker 3: of them. I mean, that's that's a classic movie.
Speaker 5: Rush Hour two is just as good as the first
Speaker 5: one that.
Speaker 3: Was on the that was on the that was on
Speaker 3: the list as well. And then I feel like there.
Speaker 5: Was dumb and Dumbers who sucked ye, the first.
Speaker 3: One, so and that was and that that was the
Speaker 3: example I used this morning when talking about it, because
Speaker 3: they did a they did a dumb and dumber err
Speaker 3: if you remember Bob Bob Saggett was in it. They
Speaker 3: did a dumb and Dumber without uh, without Jim Carrey
Speaker 3: and Jeff Daniels, and it was really stupid but kind
Speaker 3: of like stupid funny. And I remember watching it and
Speaker 3: thinking like, all right, well, they're not trying to like
Speaker 3: make me think that this is the same thing. They're
Speaker 3: just you know, kind of doing their own version of it.
Speaker 3: And you know, expectations were kind of low it was
Speaker 3: stupid funny, and Bob Saggitt was actually really funny in it.
Speaker 3: And uh, then they later did the actual second movie
Speaker 3: with those two guys, and You're right, like there was
Speaker 3: some nostalgia that I had a few laughs, because you know,
Speaker 3: those two guys are really funny, But I remember not
Speaker 3: feeling any different about the original Dumb and Dumber after
Speaker 3: watching the second one that they did like twenty years later.
Speaker 3: So I'm hopeful that that's the same thing that happens
Speaker 3: here with with Happy Gilmore too, because the three movies
Speaker 3: that I feel like I can I've probably watched them
Speaker 3: more than any movies, and it's not even close, these three,
Speaker 3: And I don't know if I could actually recite them
Speaker 3: word for word. In fact, I know I can't word
Speaker 3: for word. But if there was a movie where I
Speaker 3: could give you word, I could give you, you know,
Speaker 3: I could tell you what they're gonna say more than
Speaker 3: any other movie, it would be it would be these three.
Speaker 3: Mostly Happy Gilmore though, but there's Happy Gilmore, Dumb and Dummer,
Speaker 3: and Tommy Boy, Like, those were the three movies. I
Speaker 3: had them on VHS when I was a kid in
Speaker 3: the nineties, and I watched them religiously really really good stuff,
Speaker 3: and then this is actually, this isn't a sequel, and
Speaker 3: this may be before your time. Like you if you have,
Speaker 3: if you've seen Tommy Boy with Chris Barley, Okay, yes
Speaker 3: it's been a while, yes, because you know that's where
Speaker 3: the age difference between us could get it, because I
Speaker 3: was like, when that movie became really really popular, you
Speaker 3: were probably barely even born. So they also did another
Speaker 3: movie with Chris Farley and David Spade called Black Sheep,
Speaker 3: and it was an entirely different movie, entirely different characters,
Speaker 3: meaning like who they played, Like it wasn't the Callahans
Speaker 3: but the but it was still but it was it
Speaker 3: was basically the same thing. Like I don't know how
Speaker 3: you would. I don't think you can get away with
Speaker 3: that now. But yeah, both movies were good. I think
Speaker 3: Tommy Boy was better than Black Sheep, but it was
Speaker 3: like they were the same. Like, for example, in King
Speaker 3: of Queens and in Seinfeld, Ben Steeler's dad Jerry Stiller,
Speaker 3: he's kind of the same guy when he's George Costanza's
Speaker 3: dad and when he's yeah, when he's arth there, like
Speaker 3: that's a very similar character Chris Farley was the same
Speaker 3: guy essentially in Black Sheep and Tommy Boy, and David
Speaker 3: Spade was the same guy in both those movies, but
Speaker 3: it was an entirely different story and you know, different.
Speaker 3: So I feel like we were really dumb to eat
Speaker 3: that up because those two movies were both really successful.
Speaker 3: They came out around the same time, and I don't know.
Speaker 3: I guess it's not uncommon for two people to do movies,
Speaker 3: multiple movies together. I mean, that's really not that not
Speaker 3: that uncommon at all.
Speaker 6: But they have Beverly Hill's Ninja too. Do you remember
Speaker 6: that one? Am I thinking of the right one?
Speaker 3: Beverly Hills Ninja?
Speaker 5: I might? I might, I might be getting it wrong,
Speaker 5: But isn't that it's I'm trying to think of the.
Speaker 3: Beverly Hills Ninja was easily the stupidest movie ever from
Speaker 3: Chris Farley, and I don't remember if they did a
Speaker 3: second one, Okay, I.
Speaker 6: Remember, well, I yeah, I know that well. I didn't
Speaker 6: even know if that was a trilogy series or not,
Speaker 6: or a sequel series, But for whatever reason, I remember
Speaker 6: watching that as a kid and just dying laughing the
Speaker 6: whole time. I don't know why but maybe maybe that
Speaker 6: appealed to me. I didn't know the story or anything else.
Speaker 3: It's stupid, funny and in some.
Speaker 5: Point playing and I love that was come, I love
Speaker 5: that song.
Speaker 3: That's a good movie, man, that's a good movie. I
Speaker 3: mean it's stupid, but it's a good movie. And when
Speaker 3: I say it's the worst movie of Chris Farley, like
Speaker 3: I'm setting, I mean, I don't. I mean, how many
Speaker 3: movies did he actually do where you felt like he
Speaker 3: was a part of it, Like Let's see Beverly Hills, Ninja.
Speaker 3: Let me see if I can go to his his uh,
Speaker 3: his catalog here, because he was he was mostly popular
Speaker 3: from the hit movies that we've already discussed and also
Speaker 3: on Saturday Night Live. But as far as the movies
Speaker 3: where they made a movie and he was the main character,
Speaker 3: I don't really feel like there there was there was
Speaker 3: a whole lot.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So he was in Let's see Tom, He was in
Speaker 3: Billy Madison is the is the bus Driver?
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 3: He was also Officer Wilson in Airheads, which I love
Speaker 3: that movie. You need to watch Airheads as a radio
Speaker 3: guy and somebody that I think would appreciate like it's early.
Speaker 3: I mean both both both Let's see who else Adam
Speaker 3: Saydlor's in it, but he's not anywhere near I mean,
Speaker 3: you think he's brand new to SNL sort of at
Speaker 3: that time. So he was in Wayne's world, but it
Speaker 3: had minor role. So really the the the movies where
Speaker 3: he was kind of the star, it was it was
Speaker 3: Tommy Boy in Black Sheep, Beverly Hills, Ninja, and then
Speaker 3: I don't remember almost heroes. I think they. I think
Speaker 3: it was one of his last roles and he had
Speaker 3: a minor role and whatnot. But yeah, do you want
Speaker 3: to hear when we take you back to a traumatic
Speaker 3: moment in my childhood talk about it. Do you want
Speaker 3: to know how I found out that he died Chris Farley? Yeah,
Speaker 3: because I was I thought he was the funniest guy
Speaker 3: in the world. Again, I was obsessed with Tommy Boy,
Speaker 3: but when he passed away, I was Let's see how
Speaker 3: old was I. That was in nineteen ninety seven, so
Speaker 3: I was nine years old when he died. And we
Speaker 3: were at the Winn Dixie, which they used to have
Speaker 3: wind dixiees around here.
Speaker 5: Did you know that that's right before Kroger.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So when Dixie that we were checking out at
Speaker 3: the grocery store, me and my mother, and I think
Speaker 3: my sister was there too, And I remember those magazines
Speaker 3: that do they still make the magazines like the like
Speaker 3: the newspaper type magazines that would be at the checkout
Speaker 3: that would be like the Tabloid.
Speaker 2: News and all that.
Speaker 3: So like the TMZ put them out of business, like
Speaker 3: the National Inquirer like all that stuff.
Speaker 5: Like he's like a star magazine, like all these.
Speaker 3: Salacious headlines about these celebrities, and like even as a
Speaker 3: young kid, I remember reading things and thinking, there's no
Speaker 3: way that's true, Like, there's no way that that's real.
Speaker 3: So I remember one of those magazines had the picture
Speaker 3: of him laying dead in a hotel on you couldn't
Speaker 3: see his face and it wasn't graphic, but on the cover,
Speaker 3: and I remember seeing that it said Chris Farley, and
Speaker 3: I asked my mom and she was looked at me
Speaker 3: like we got it. We got to talk about that,
Speaker 3: and I'm like, what's going on? What happened? So yeah,
Speaker 3: I was very very sad because I it's kind of tragic.
Speaker 3: Oh dude, it was. It was, And there have been
Speaker 3: some really sad sad uh sad deaths with people who
Speaker 3: were legendary comedians and especially some SNL folks that that
Speaker 3: were great. And then you know, I mean Robin Williams,
Speaker 3: like that was the one of the saddest things ever.
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know, I'm not making in the
Speaker 3: SNL connection there, but just I'm thinking of comedians who
Speaker 3: made so many people laugh, brought so much happiness to
Speaker 3: and really, I guess could be an escape for somebody
Speaker 3: that's going through tough times in their life. They can
Speaker 3: watch their movies, watch their comedy and just enjoy it.
Speaker 3: And you never really know what people are going through.
Speaker 3: And obviously Chris Farley had had some personal demons and uh,
Speaker 3: you know, he gosh, it's been not only is it
Speaker 3: crazy to me to think that that he's been gone
Speaker 3: that long, but also he was only thirty three, like
Speaker 3: he was he was four years he was roughly four
Speaker 3: years younger than I am now when he passed away,
Speaker 3: two years older than I am. Yeah, that's crazy.
Speaker 7: Too.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then I cannot think of the guy's name.
Speaker 3: He wasn't like a big time a lister, but he
Speaker 3: was funny, had a great run on SNL. A known
Speaker 3: celebrity who who took his own life, and you know,
Speaker 3: just tragic, really tragic stuff. Anyways, let's get back to
Speaker 3: the reason we're on the air today that he's growing. Yeah, Chuck,
Speaker 3: he's growing. So somebody he wrote this on the text
Speaker 3: line and said the Chucky Grun situation has distracted us
Speaker 3: from Boston College's coach being a little baby after the game.
Speaker 3: So we didn't get any indication at least I didn't
Speaker 3: hear as to what was said by Earl Grant in
Speaker 3: the handshake line. You know, it looked as if Pat
Speaker 3: Kelsey was trying to have some dialogue and there was
Speaker 3: going to be no dialogue, and Earl Grant just had
Speaker 3: something to say and then he walked off. Don't know
Speaker 3: what it was, but if he was upset about something,
Speaker 3: it would have to be that Louisville didn't put in
Speaker 3: the walk ons at the end of the game. I
Speaker 3: mean two things. One, if you don't want to get
Speaker 3: blown out and you don't want to get embarrassed, then
Speaker 3: you know, maybe don't suck. I mean, he's going to
Speaker 3: be out of a job after this year unless Boston
Speaker 3: College doesn't care, and I don't think they do care
Speaker 3: about basketball. I mean you see that. I mean they,
Speaker 3: by the way, they've never really cared. I was at
Speaker 3: their arena when Louisville played there five years ago, and
Speaker 3: I mean I've never been to a more lifeless acc environment.
Speaker 3: And nobody cares about Boston College sports really in Boston,
Speaker 3: which is kind of sad. So if there's ever a
Speaker 3: team that's gonna get kicked out, some would say, well, no,
Speaker 3: they've got the Boston market.
Speaker 5: No, they don't.
Speaker 3: Like. Boston University and Harvard get more love and more
Speaker 3: attention in Boston than Boston College. From from from what
Speaker 3: I could tell when I was there on two different occasions, some.
Speaker 5: Market it's a great place to I don't know if
Speaker 5: you've had that before.
Speaker 3: I have it as good. So my guess is that
Speaker 3: he just didn't like that that Louisville kept the starters
Speaker 3: in and they stayed aggressive. And again, like if you
Speaker 3: don't it's one thing to try to embarrass your opponent,
Speaker 3: like like, and I don't think Pat Kelsey was trying
Speaker 3: to do that at all, But we're in a world
Speaker 3: now where you have to beat really bad Like to
Speaker 3: be honest with you, if if Boston College wasn't the
Speaker 3: very worst team in the ACC, then there wouldn't have
Speaker 3: been such a need for Louisville to win by such
Speaker 3: a big margin and kind of keep their foot on
Speaker 3: the gas. I mean they did put it. I mean,
Speaker 3: it wasn't like they were out there literally pressing and
Speaker 3: trying to run up the score, but they just stayed
Speaker 3: locked in for all forty minutes and you know, tried
Speaker 3: to compete to the end and win by as much
Speaker 3: as possible. And that's because Boston College is a team
Speaker 3: that when that thing tipped off yesterday, they were ranked
Speaker 3: two hundred and fifteenth in the net. Louisville has to
Speaker 3: beat those teams really bad in order to have any
Speaker 3: potential positive movement with these metrics. So, I mean, that's
Speaker 3: just how it is. Like it's not personal, and Louisville
Speaker 3: jumped up one spot after beating a conference opponent on
Speaker 3: the road by more than twenty points. I mean, again,
Speaker 3: that just speaks to where the ACC is. So really
Speaker 3: all of it is is Earl Grant in Boston College's fault,
Speaker 3: if in fact that's what he was upset about. Somebody
Speaker 3: told me that they thought maybe maybe Pat was asking
Speaker 3: about the injury to the Boston College player. There was
Speaker 3: I think it was a second leading score for Boston
Speaker 3: College that did not play because he was dealing with
Speaker 3: an injury. Somebody thought that maybe Pat was asking about that,
Speaker 3: and then Earl Grant answered and gave him, I guess,
Speaker 3: not a good update about the injury. But I've since
Speaker 3: been told that that wasn't what was said. But again
Speaker 3: I'm the only speculation, and again it's just speculation to me,
Speaker 3: is that he didn't like that Louisville was shooting threes
Speaker 3: and really competing to the very end of the game.
Speaker 3: And I don't know if there's like a history there,
Speaker 3: but I will admit I totally forgot this. This was
Speaker 3: something that was talked about in Charlotte a the ACC
Speaker 3: basketball media days, but Earl Grant was at Charleston before
Speaker 3: Pat Kelsey. I totally forgot about that. So I don't
Speaker 3: think there's I mean, again, they weren't on each other's staff.
Speaker 3: It wasn't like Pat got the Charleston job because well,
Speaker 3: I don't know. Maybe they did work together now that
Speaker 3: I look at it, because obviously Pat Kelsey was at
Speaker 3: Winthrop as a head coach and then he became the
Speaker 3: head coach at Charleston, So I don't know, maybe they
Speaker 3: do have like an actual connection. I know they're familiar
Speaker 3: with one another, and obviously Pat Kelsey took over for
Speaker 3: Earl Grant when he got the Boston College job in
Speaker 3: twenty twenty one. But usually when you know you go
Speaker 3: through a transition, there's really it's not like you know
Speaker 3: you're gonna hang out for a few hang out for
Speaker 3: a couple of weeks help you get settled in on
Speaker 3: the new job. Like that's not really how it works
Speaker 3: at all. So yeah, I mean, look, Earl Grant is
Speaker 3: not a good coach. Maybe he is, though, and he
Speaker 3: just does have Boston College like that could be it.
Speaker 3: I don't think there's really anything out there that would
Speaker 3: tell you that he's a phenomenal coach. But nonetheless, I mean,
Speaker 3: I don't know if, even if you are a good coach,
Speaker 3: if you could win at Boston College with the resources
Speaker 3: they have. I mean, they wear new balance. Sorry Jack Harlow,
Speaker 3: but like new balance, that's not a mean. New balance
Speaker 3: can can be stylish. I have some new balances myself.
Speaker 3: But like when we're talking sneaker wars in college basketball,
Speaker 3: we're talking Nike. Indeed, is in maybe a little bit
Speaker 3: of under armour. Yep, new balance is not is not
Speaker 3: not a player in the game, and that's their apparel brand.
Speaker 3: So anyways, and Pat was a lot better at Charleston
Speaker 3: than Earrol Grant was, so like, maybe he has some
Speaker 3: animosity because the job that he did at Charleston, which,
Speaker 3: by the way, a lot of coaches have won there,
Speaker 3: but the job that he did at Charleston didn't look
Speaker 3: as impressive. Whenever you know, my man p K comes
Speaker 3: in and wins the league, what two out of his
Speaker 3: three years there or something like that. All Right, we
Speaker 3: got to get to a quick break. Keep it locked
Speaker 3: right here. We'll talk some super Bowl coming up here
Speaker 3: on the other side. And I definitely want to talk
Speaker 3: about Mark Poe because it sounds like he was angry
Speaker 3: in the locker room after their loss on the road
Speaker 3: at all Miss. Apparently he was punching things. I don't
Speaker 3: get mad, That's what I'm saying. Man, I don't know.
Speaker 3: I don't think he's that guy. Not that that guy, Pal,
Speaker 3: You're not that guy.
Speaker 2: Pal.
Speaker 3: We'll talk about it right here on Sports Talk seven ninety.
Speaker 1: Now back to coffee.
Speaker 2: And Company, fueled by Thornton's on Sports Talk seven nine day.
Speaker 3: Because I want so badly for the Philadelphia Eagles to
Speaker 3: get the win on Sunday, And I was gonna say
Speaker 3: de throne the Chiefs, but I'm not even really sure
Speaker 3: that would be accurate. If they win, I mean, it
Speaker 3: would be impressive, and maybe it would be a sign
Speaker 3: that the Chiefs are not as dominant moving forward as
Speaker 3: they have been recently. But again, they could lose and
Speaker 3: then maybe win two more and I wouldn't be shocked.
Speaker 3: But when it comes to the matchup, I think you
Speaker 3: really you need to get off to a really good
Speaker 3: start if you're Philadelphia, and I don't mean get out
Speaker 3: to some huge lead, but what you don't want to
Speaker 3: do is have to play from behind, because then you're
Speaker 3: gonna have to really trust Jalen Hurts. And Jalen Hurts
Speaker 3: is trustworthy as a quarterback. He is consistent, does not
Speaker 3: make a lot of mistakes. But where your offense is
Speaker 3: going to be able to, you know, really thrive, I mean,
Speaker 3: if it's going to thrive, I should say it'll be
Speaker 3: leaning on Sequon Barkley, the birthday boy who has had
Speaker 3: a phenomenal season and is clearly one of the best
Speaker 3: players in the NFL. But if you end up down
Speaker 3: ten or something like that, you could still you know,
Speaker 3: you could still rely on him, but you know, it's
Speaker 3: just you're gonna need to. I just think the scenario
Speaker 3: where Barkley has the big impact and they are able
Speaker 3: to win, I think it's because he's he's making plays
Speaker 3: early and it's the Chiefs that have to come from behind.
Speaker 3: Now with that said, I mean the Chiefs are built
Speaker 3: to come from behind. Patrick Mahomes, I mean some of
Speaker 3: these stats out there about how successful he is not
Speaker 3: only with what he does individually, but also his team's
Speaker 3: winning him leading his teams from behind or in games
Speaker 3: where they're down or it's tied. I mean he's clutch
Speaker 3: in a major way. And a lot of people claim
Speaker 3: it's because he gets bailed out by the Revs. I mean,
Speaker 3: in all seriousness, that's not why he's clutch. I mean
Speaker 3: he's had some calls go his way that shouldn't have.
Speaker 3: We all know that. But I mean the guy is phenomenal.
Speaker 3: So I just the more the closer we get, I
Speaker 3: actually start to think that the Chiefs are going to win,
Speaker 3: and I don't, and I shouldn't say that. I don't
Speaker 3: give the Eagles much of it chance. But I guess
Speaker 3: what I'm doing mentally here is preparing for the worst
Speaker 3: and just hoping for the best. All Right, So Kentucky
Speaker 3: lost four or five after they're beat down at Ole Miss,
Speaker 3: and I think it's safe to save it to beat
Speaker 3: Then they lost by fifteen or something like that, and
Speaker 3: they were down twenty three at half. I believe it
Speaker 3: was so look, Ole Miss is a good team, and
Speaker 3: they were hitting a lot of shots. And Kentucky's without
Speaker 3: Lamont Butler. This team still has a lot of good
Speaker 3: resume wins. But obviously I would say right now, just
Speaker 3: with it being four out of five that you've lost,
Speaker 3: fans are starting to worry a little bit, understandably so,
Speaker 3: And I don't think worry about missing the tournament, because,
Speaker 3: as we discussed yesterday, I really don't know if that's
Speaker 3: possible for you to miss the tournament, Like you could
Speaker 3: lose out and you certainly wouldn't want to do that.
Speaker 3: Who would We'll never know. But I think they have
Speaker 3: such good wins at this point that losing out would
Speaker 3: probably still put them on the bubble. But they won't.
Speaker 3: They'll probably beat the hell out of South Carolina this weekend.
Speaker 3: They still play LSU, who's not that good, and then
Speaker 3: you know, we can't be shocked if they beat some
Speaker 3: of these really good teams left on the schedule, because
Speaker 3: you know they've done that before. Their win at Gonzaga.
Speaker 3: They win at Tennessee was without the guy that they're
Speaker 3: still missing, which is Lamont Butler. So I didn't you know,
Speaker 3: I must have missed this yesterday. I didn't see it
Speaker 3: until the KSR post from earlier today with Nick Roush,
Speaker 3: and that apparently in the press conference on Tuesday night
Speaker 3: you could see Mark Pope has a bloody hand. And
Speaker 3: I don't know the specifics of of of what happened here,
Speaker 3: but apparently he was he was white hot. And I'll
Speaker 3: read directly here from KSRS as Pope described these moments
Speaker 3: as getting white hot. A well placed, flaming, white hot
Speaker 3: tirade ca can effectively motivate players if used properly. And
Speaker 3: here's the quote from Pope. There were there may or
Speaker 3: may not have been some completely destroyed furniture in the
Speaker 3: locker room recently, A little coach p maybe that's just
Speaker 3: part of it. Pope said, it's got to be for
Speaker 3: a purpose. It can't just be an emotional release. That's
Speaker 3: not the most productive thing. We try and make sure
Speaker 3: it's always something that's really really personal and not just indulgent,
Speaker 3: like an indulgent emotional outburst, it's not functional. That sounds
Speaker 3: I mean that Mark Pope is a very calculated guy,
Speaker 3: and I want to be able to say, hey, this guy,
Speaker 3: he's really starting to show that he's losing it, man,
Speaker 3: because he's not the guy if he thinks he's got
Speaker 3: to throw a tantrum and throw things in the locker room.
Speaker 3: His players they know that's not who he is. They're
Speaker 3: going to sense that that's not genuine and they're going
Speaker 3: to think the guy's a fraud. I mean, I would
Speaker 3: like to be able to say that, you know, for
Speaker 3: the sake of the rivalry, but even though he's not
Speaker 3: that red hot guy, that's just you know, going to
Speaker 3: be screaming at people. That's just not who he is
Speaker 3: as a person. And that's okay. Everybody's different. It does
Speaker 3: sound as if maybe it was just you know, frustration,
Speaker 3: and he probably was calling these guys out privately, not publicly,
Speaker 3: because again that's just kind of how he operates, it seems,
Speaker 3: but that they're not competing at the level that they
Speaker 3: need to compete at. So we'll see if if it works.
Speaker 3: I mean, I kind of can't really envision Mark Pope
Speaker 3: breaking furniture in a locker room, just because like that's
Speaker 3: so not his personality. I mean, I've never even seen
Speaker 3: him angry, to be honest with you. I mean, I'm
Speaker 3: sure he does get angry, and if I paid close
Speaker 3: enough attention, I'm sure I could see him yelling at
Speaker 3: his players. It's just to me, he's been never too high,
Speaker 3: never too low in regards to like anything. But yeah,
Speaker 3: they'll they'll they'll have South Carolina on Saturday, and really
Speaker 3: that's the perfect game to kind of, you know, try
Speaker 3: to bounce back. You've lost four or five, you're still
Speaker 3: without Lamont Butler and Kerk Crisa, who sounds like won't
Speaker 3: be back at all this year. So yeah, we uh,
Speaker 3: we'll see. But I wouldn't be shocked if they blow
Speaker 3: South Carolina off the off the floor on Saturday, just
Speaker 3: because they're that much better and it's the rare game
Speaker 3: that you have on your schedule where you're at home

Speaker 3: in your league. You're playing a team that you know
Speaker 3: they're not god awful in the grand scheme of things,
Speaker 3: but they're they're not. I mean, they're not a tournament team.
Speaker 3: I mean they've taken they've taken a big step back
