Speaker 1: This place is Chicago, Illinois. The date is April twenty twenty. Hello, brothers,
Speaker 1: just gonna just gonna paint a little picture for you
Speaker 1: where Landon gun got and say Hello, I'm landing Fields
Speaker 1: and I'll do the rest.
Speaker 2: Hi, I'm landing Fields, maybe for the last time, depending
Speaker 2: on Hello, brothers.
Speaker 1: That's that's the scene. Land and You're you are the
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five it TP Pickham loser by a single
Speaker 1: game cause of death. Porter Moser. Yeah, ago, you you
Speaker 1: battled back.
Speaker 3: It's not a plane. It's a hellcat SRT of four gunmen.
Speaker 3: Oh no, there's landing.
Speaker 1: To land and so Landon has lost Pickham. And we
Speaker 1: lead off with that because yeah, Kansas lost again. But
Speaker 1: you're used to Kansas losing, you should also be used
Speaker 1: to land and losing Pickam. But you know they Landon.
Speaker 1: I believe this is you've never won pick them, that
Speaker 1: that your rivalry with winning Pickam has been well established
Speaker 1: on the show. Is this seven years for you or eight?
Speaker 2: This is eight?
Speaker 3: Eight?
Speaker 1: I believe how have you never won? You probably, at
Speaker 1: least at one point, if not still know as much
Speaker 1: about basketball as anybody you've ever been on the show
Speaker 1: with how do you lose at Pick Them every year?
Speaker 2: Yeah? And like not only that, but I have had
Speaker 2: like arguably top ten all time Pick Them seasons, uh
Speaker 2: and haven't won. Yeah, yep, where I like ripped and
Speaker 2: someone just outgunned me and that's really annoying. But you
Speaker 2: know what, it's just outgunned.
Speaker 1: When you say outgunned, you mean in Chicago because you
Speaker 1: see the Pickham punishment that we decided on and all
Speaker 1: signed to our contracts the beginning of the years. The
Speaker 1: loser would have to go to would have to go
Speaker 1: to Chicago.
Speaker 3: And maybe Angel Reese will be in the shooter and
Speaker 3: he'll still be alive. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you get like three or four chances to run
Speaker 1: before she finally connects on one, is what I'm hearing
Speaker 1: there picking up so well, more on that later. Enjoy
Speaker 1: your last three weeks of land and at least he'll
Speaker 1: get a fun NCA tournament to watch it. TP Part
Speaker 1: one of a two day special. So if you're listening today,
Speaker 1: we're going to recap Kansas in Arizona. We're going to
Speaker 1: recap Champ week, and then we are going to do
Speaker 1: a new feature where we're going to be doing a
Speaker 1: Kansas basketball draft that Landon will explain the rules of
Speaker 1: when we get there before his inevitable death.
Speaker 3: Uh So that was the actual draft, like the World
Speaker 3: War three draft that we're gonna be.
Speaker 2: Part that probably will happen eventually, But that's not this okay,
Speaker 2: because I had a different list in mind.
Speaker 3: I had. I had a lot of big men picked
Speaker 3: from my squad.
Speaker 1: Well, eventually you'll land And will get to use some
Speaker 1: of those talents to maybe fight back to prevent being
Speaker 1: gunned down in the streets of Chicago. So this is
Speaker 1: part one. The episode that comes out on Tuesday will
Speaker 1: be your Bracket show. We have the bracket, we're looking
Speaker 1: at it. We're not gonna be talking about brackets with picks.
Speaker 1: Kansas Arkansas first round matchup that's gonna come out on
Speaker 1: the Tuesday show. So today enjoy part one of your
Speaker 1: two day March Badness Special. This is itp On Rockchuk Blog.
Speaker 1: I am second place finisher, Ryan Landrath, I am.
Speaker 3: A finisher land Fields, and I'm the winner and I'm
Speaker 3: on antidepressants.
Speaker 1: So let me just tell you something about Cam. So
Speaker 1: this entire season, Landon and I have pointed out all
Speaker 1: the many times that Cam has messed up bets and picks.
Speaker 1: We've laughed and laughed at Cam's expense, and we've acknowledged
Speaker 1: that Cam has gotten many bets wrong. So you can
Speaker 1: imagine what it takes when we look at the final
Speaker 1: pickum standings and see that Cam beat us by eighteen
Speaker 1: and nineteen games and pick them. Wow, Cam, if only
Speaker 1: you had placed United States currency on all of the
Speaker 1: teams you predicted, you'd be way in the green.
Speaker 3: I think the funniest part about it is when we
Speaker 3: do pick them in in the podcast. I don't really
Speaker 3: think about it. I just hear the name and I'm like, oh,
Speaker 3: I mean ole Miss is playing at Tennessee, probably Tennessee,
Speaker 3: And then I picked Tennessee. Well, guess what Tennessee wins. Well,
Speaker 3: then I see DraftKings and I see Tennessee money line
Speaker 3: is like minus four hundred ole Miss. Money one is
Speaker 3: like plus three fifty, and I'm like, man, five dollars
Speaker 3: on that plus three fifty goes a long way, and
Speaker 3: then I lose.
Speaker 1: Then it's about flushing five dollars like earlier in this
Speaker 1: week Cam. This is all alleged by the way Cam
Speaker 1: was like, I am on an all time betting high
Speaker 1: every team I touch wins and it was true. Texas
Speaker 1: beat A and M and overtime. You had alleged money
Speaker 1: on that, and you had some alleged money on BYU
Speaker 1: beating Iowas like you couldn't miss. And then then you
Speaker 1: put your hands in the fate of tom Izzo and
Speaker 1: uh and uh.
Speaker 3: I believe Mack a lot and well he's still alive.
Speaker 3: It goes into tomorrow, into tomorrow. If anyone out there
Speaker 3: listens and cares about golf, there's this big thing happening
Speaker 3: now morning.
Speaker 1: He's not gonna win, Cam, I've watched he's gonna win.
Speaker 1: It's a lot like landing in the clutch, right, You're like, boy,
Speaker 1: a triple bogie would be real bad. That's landon having
Speaker 1: a four and twelve week if you will, and picked
Speaker 1: the quarter Moser to beat Kentucky didn't go good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Cam finished two hundred and fifty eight and one twenty two,
Speaker 1: and pick them. You won the triple crown. You got
Speaker 1: the most games right overall, you had the best record
Speaker 1: in KU games, and you have the best record in
Speaker 1: conference games. You crushed us both so yeah and now
Speaker 1: so that makes you Bill self and that makes us
Speaker 1: John Calipari.
Speaker 3: Because it is not. It makes me Pete Rose because
Speaker 3: I bet on the game.
Speaker 1: But you're alive, unlike Landon in a couple of weeks
Speaker 1: moved to Chicago.
Speaker 3: Pete Rose died too. That's a terrible joke.
Speaker 1: That is That's OKAYRD, We're known to make a terrible
Speaker 1: joker too. Also a terrible joke is how I'm gonna
Speaker 1: convince you in the next forty hours that Kansas got
Speaker 1: a great draw and is going to the Sweet sixteen.
Speaker 2: So sure, buddy, it's okay. All right, let's talk about
Speaker 2: let's suck.
Speaker 1: That's the most recent loss because I don't even know
Speaker 1: how many that is now, bab I forgot to paste
Speaker 1: all the sad landings in the notes, but I believe
Speaker 1: that's twelve of them. Right, this is twelve losses.
Speaker 2: It's just gonna be like one week.
Speaker 1: Number three, Arizona eighty eight, number six, Kansas seventy seven. Hey, guys,
Speaker 1: they'll totally beat this team. They just beat them a
Speaker 1: week ago. They're not actually the worst team in this matchup, right,
Speaker 1: Somebody tell me please? Oh no, that was Arizona running
Speaker 1: to the rim and throwing down dunks over Kansas as
Speaker 1: All American Center for the entire second half.
Speaker 2: Well, let's tell you about the game that was a
Speaker 2: long time ago and is on very few people's minds anymore.
Speaker 2: But we're gonna we're.
Speaker 1: Gonna, yeah, this will be a very like you know how,
Speaker 1: like whenever you turn on a YouTube video that's long
Speaker 1: and you put it on one and a half x speed.
Speaker 1: That's gonna be us in this recap. We're gonna still
Speaker 1: talk about it because I believe there are some talking points,
Speaker 1: but you're going to be running through it as fast
Speaker 1: as we can.
Speaker 2: Yeah, much like the Wildcat offense ran through Kansas. Hot
Speaker 2: shooting helped the Wildcats control the first half, but Zeke
Speaker 2: Mayo absolutely caught fire. Zeke can do it on a
Speaker 2: neutral court, folks, Let's absolutely smash Kansas sweet sixteen run.
Speaker 2: Not really, and Zeke helped Kansas a RaSE an eight
Speaker 2: point halftime deficit. He made three straight threes, guiding the
Speaker 2: Jayhawks to a sixty three to sixty one lead with
Speaker 2: nine minutes to go. But it was at this point
Speaker 2: that Kansas went cold. Their tired legs started to show
Speaker 2: and they couldn't stop anything Arizona did. In the paint,
Speaker 2: which led to the Wildcats outscoring KU twenty seven to
Speaker 2: fourteen over the last nine minutes. Kansas now has twelve losses,
Speaker 2: as we mentioned, telling the most they've had in the
Speaker 2: Bell cuth Era. Hmm, I wonder how that's gonna gop
Speaker 2: new record, I smell.
Speaker 1: I think I think that actually is the most, isn't it.
Speaker 1: I thought it was ti. I thought last year's team
Speaker 1: lost twelve. I think last year's team lost eleven. I
Speaker 1: think this is the most already.
Speaker 2: Oh well, extending the record. Then they will draw, and
Speaker 2: they have drawn, and to seed worse than a four
Speaker 2: for the first time in a quarter century.
Speaker 3: Crazy. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah. By the way, we had as prophecy was foretold
Speaker 1: that itp Show number five hundred was destined to be
Speaker 1: a round of thirty two loss. We've been making that
Speaker 1: joke for years. This is Show four ninety seven, so
Speaker 1: you start doing the math. Four ninety eight is the
Speaker 1: bracket pick four ninety nine is the Kansas Arkansas recap
Speaker 1: they win that, oh boy, looks like in order to
Speaker 1: prevent the prophecy from coming to fruition, Kansas will have
Speaker 1: to beat Rick Patino in the second round of the
Speaker 1: NCAA Tournament.
Speaker 2: They only have to beat will play Kansas on an
Speaker 2: Applebe's table.
Speaker 3: Yea, they only have to beat possibly That's that's amazing,
Speaker 3: that's really Oh wow.
Speaker 1: Landon is uh Landon is kind of like el Marco
Speaker 1: Jackson in the sense that I think that I understand
Speaker 1: that I've tempered my you know, he probably won't say
Speaker 1: anything out Landis, he won't do anything ridiculous. But they
Speaker 1: did a row down a dunk out of nowhere. I'm like, wow,
Speaker 1: I didn't know Landa would do that. I thought Landon
Speaker 1: went to church and he didn't make Applebee's jokes.
Speaker 2: I shouldn't, I really shouldn't make apple Bee's jokes. But
Speaker 2: sometimes the apple beas joke. He's right there and it
Speaker 2: looks so beautiful, and I have to take it and
Speaker 2: take a bite. And now I've taken a bite at
Speaker 2: the apple Bee's joke.
Speaker 1: Take it home for the night, and then the next day. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: So yes, this is the most amount of losses they've
Speaker 1: ever had so in bill selves first, however many years
Speaker 1: it is. Through twenty eighteen, it didn't lose more than
Speaker 1: ten games, then lost ten and nineteen, and then lost
Speaker 1: eleven last year and now has lost twelve. Somehow, the
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one team. Somehow, that basketball team only lost
Speaker 1: nine times. This one is on pace to lose almost
Speaker 1: fifty percent more. Yes, unless they win the NCAA Tournament,
Speaker 1: they will have thirteen losses. Cam what was your takeaway
Speaker 1: from Kansas losing by double digits to a team that
Speaker 1: they just beat.
Speaker 3: I mean, they were in the game for most of
Speaker 3: the game, and to be honest, it didn't change my
Speaker 3: take on this team. Whatsoever they they to me? At
Speaker 3: least it looked like they ran out of gas in
Speaker 3: the second half. Zeke Mail hit a lot of shots.
Speaker 3: I will say. The one thing that does concern me
Speaker 3: still about this team, and that will definitely be the downfall,
Speaker 3: is it takes so many things for them to go
Speaker 3: like they have to have so many things go right
Speaker 3: for them to just be in games with good teams
Speaker 3: to where I look at him, like, all right, if
Speaker 3: Zeke Mayol has a poor shooting night, if Ryland Griffin
Speaker 3: does what he's been doing, and if Hunter Dickinson shoots
Speaker 3: forty percent from the floor, they're gonna lose by twenty plus.
Speaker 3: So it is what it is. You know they they
Speaker 3: played relatively well, a lot of positives, but they ran
Speaker 3: out of gas and at the end of the day,
Speaker 3: their seventh seed.
Speaker 2: I mean, they need that much to go right to
Speaker 2: beat fourteen seed in the Big twelve UCF.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly, Yeah, And what you guys are saying
Speaker 1: is exactly the first bullet point I haven't here is
Speaker 1: my specific takeaway from this game, which I haven't shared
Speaker 1: with you guys yet, but Cam basically just let into it.
Speaker 1: Watching this game was very different. I'm almost thirty years old.
Speaker 1: Kansas basketball has been good the entire time I've watched them.
Speaker 1: This is the first time that they'd worn blue jerseys
Speaker 1: in the Big twelve tournament in almost like fifteen years.
Speaker 1: More than fifteen years. It was seventeen years ago that
Speaker 1: they wore the blues last. So they are almost always
Speaker 1: the perceived favorite to win any game they're in. And
Speaker 1: my takeaway watching this game was it felt like I
Speaker 1: was watching a ten seed play a two seed in
Speaker 1: the NCAAs. It was like, Okay, they can play with
Speaker 1: these guys, but everything has to go right, and you
Speaker 1: look up at that scoreboard when it feels like Kansas
Speaker 1: is on an all time heater, Zeke Mayo can't miss
Speaker 1: the Sprint Center is alive with a home court advantage,
Speaker 1: and Arizona's missing everything, and it's tied. And it never
Speaker 1: felt at any point in that second half like they
Speaker 1: were actually going to win. It felt like the game
Speaker 1: of basketball came so much easier to Arizona. They had
Speaker 1: to do so much less work to get the same
Speaker 1: number of points that Kansas had to do. And that
Speaker 1: was just a weird perspective to have. There's nothing inherently
Speaker 1: wrong with that. This isn't the time where you get
Speaker 1: on there and you blame the effort or you like,
Speaker 1: clearly they were hired, Clearly, the effort was fine. Clearly
Speaker 1: they're given everything they have. They're just flat out not
Speaker 1: as good. And that's weird because I've never actually said that.
Speaker 1: So many fans in Kansas basketball are quick to slam
Speaker 1: that hammer down when they lose to somebody in December.
Speaker 1: They're like, Yep, this team's just not very good and
Speaker 1: it always winds up being proven incorrect. But like, we
Speaker 1: have enough sample size by now, they just aren't as
Speaker 1: good Arizona. We don't think is anything super special. They're
Speaker 1: a good basketball team. They're a four seed, they're one
Speaker 1: of the twenty best teams in college basketball. But Kansas
Speaker 1: should not be in a situation where crazy guy with
Speaker 1: all the ridings on the bulletin board behind him. If
Speaker 1: this goes right, and this goes right, and this goes right,
Speaker 1: Kansas has a chance to beat Arizona. That just tells
Speaker 1: you the state that they're in right now. Kansas also
Speaker 1: did the math here. In the first fifteen years of
Speaker 1: the Bill celf era, the most conference games they lost
Speaker 1: was five. And I know conference plays twenty or eighteen
Speaker 1: games now and it used to be sixteen, so not
Speaker 1: exactly and even sample size here, but up through twenty eighteen,
Speaker 1: Kansas only lost a maximum of five conference games four times.
Speaker 1: In the last seven years, they've lost at least six,
Speaker 1: and last year they lost eight and this year they
Speaker 1: lost nine. So just proof they're just not as good landed.
Speaker 1: I know, that's kind of the point that you reached
Speaker 1: before I did, and maybe even before Cam did. It
Speaker 1: was like watching a game where one team was clearly
Speaker 1: better than the other one and the worst one hung
Speaker 1: around for a while, but it was just a matter
Speaker 1: of time. Even with the home court advantage.
Speaker 2: Excuse me, that's not a good way to start off
Speaker 2: my segment, but that's kind of the tone of the
Speaker 2: season at this point. Yeah, you're right, joke. And the
Speaker 2: weird thing is kind of like exactly to your point,
Speaker 2: Like even last year's team, like once Kevin mccoler was
Speaker 2: in and out of the lineup, and once we got
Speaker 2: to the end of the season, we kind of expected
Speaker 2: that team just to kind of be not that good
Speaker 2: and they just got kind of blasted. Where's this team? Like,
Speaker 2: the weird thing about the Arizona game or the Texas
Speaker 2: Tech loss or the Houston loss on the road is
Speaker 2: that in none of those games would I say Kansas
Speaker 2: played poorly. Kansas played I think pretty well in all
Speaker 2: those games. And to this exact point, every time in
Speaker 2: my life that Kansas has played well, they win, or
Speaker 2: it takes a herculean effort from another team playing really
Speaker 2: really well to beat them, and that's very rare. Normally,
Speaker 2: when Kansas plays a even a pretty good game, they
Speaker 2: win almost always Kansas. I've watched Kansas play three pretty
Speaker 2: good games in a two week span against teams that
Speaker 2: were just better.
Speaker 1: Than them, And you can throw game where they UCF
Speaker 1: wasn't better than them, and UCF isn't even that good,
Speaker 1: and Kansas played really well and still barely.
Speaker 2: At least yep.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean we thought that the thing that
Speaker 1: was holding this team back all year was they weren't
Speaker 1: gonna get enough threes, right, we said at the beginning
Speaker 1: of the year, that was the problem. Kansas in two
Speaker 1: Big Twelve Tournament games made twenty threes and shot forty
Speaker 1: five percent from three. They shot forty five percent almost
Speaker 1: from three, eight for eighteen or no they should No,
Speaker 1: I'm looking at Arizona's They were much better than that.
Speaker 1: Fourteen threes against Arizona and what was it eleven? Was
Speaker 1: it twelve twelve against UCF, So that is twenty Why
Speaker 1: can't I do math? Twenty six threes? They made twenty
Speaker 1: six threes in two games, and you were a net
Speaker 1: minus nine, minus seven something like that. They made twenty
Speaker 1: six threes and were seven points worse than UCF in Arizona. Like, yeah,
Speaker 1: this is about as well as they can play on offense.
Speaker 1: They are the first Big twelve Tournament team ever to
Speaker 1: give up at least eighty eight points in back to
Speaker 1: back games in that tournament, and that's kind of skewed
Speaker 1: because it's pretty rare that you give a eighty eight
Speaker 1: and win for the chance to do it again. But
Speaker 1: this tournament's been going on for you know, since nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety seven. No team had ever given up eighty eight
Speaker 1: and back to back nights. This is not the defensive
Speaker 1: power that we thought they would be in. And then
Speaker 1: whenever they're playing better on offense, it's just still not enough.
Speaker 1: So we're gonna kind of blow through some of these players,
Speaker 1: and then we're gonna, I guess, give a little bit
Speaker 1: of analysis. There really isn't a whole lot. They are
Speaker 1: what they are. CAM tell me about Zeke Mayo, who
Speaker 1: I feel like, even in a losing effort, deserves a
Speaker 1: lot of credit.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he played great. Zeke Mao had twenty points, was
Speaker 3: five to twelve from three in thirty six minutes. There's
Speaker 3: some other stats, but those are the key ones. Mayo
Speaker 3: has now made eighty five threes this year, which is
Speaker 3: tied with twenty eighteen Malik Newman for the fifth most
Speaker 3: in the self era. With three more makes, he will
Speaker 3: double Johnny Furfey's forty four, which actually led the team
Speaker 3: last year, which is insane.
Speaker 1: That is quite bad. Yeah, So, Landon, You've always said
Speaker 1: the twenty eighteen team was your favorite, And the more
Speaker 1: that I look back on that team, I realize that
Speaker 1: team made a Final four, and obviously we saw what
Speaker 1: happen with Villanova, Like, if Villanova doesn't have an all
Speaker 1: time shooting performance, Kansas probably has a fifty to fifty
Speaker 1: chance to win that game. And I think they would
Speaker 1: have won the whole thing. And I think that really
Speaker 1: puts perspective as to how good that team was. They
Speaker 1: were closer than I think history will remember to winning
Speaker 1: that whole that whole thing. There have been eight players
Speaker 1: and Bill Self's tenure that have made more than eighty
Speaker 1: threes in a season, and almost half of them are
Speaker 1: on that team. Number one all time is Sphee in eighteen,
Speaker 1: and number two all time is DeVante Graham in eighteen.
Speaker 1: Like that team was fun rip and.
Speaker 2: Then what is it? Fifth all time is midlike Newman. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And also the point of that stat, the point of
Speaker 1: that stat if you've seen that tweet, Grady Dick seventh
Speaker 1: most threes in a Kansas season under self, My point
Speaker 1: number one is he was under utilized and should have
Speaker 1: been yeaeding ten of them a game, if not more,
Speaker 1: because he should have had way more than that and
Speaker 1: two Zeke Mayo. It may not feel like it the turnovers,
Speaker 1: I get it right. He's not the best defensive player.
Speaker 1: He's having one of the best shooting seasons in the
Speaker 1: history of Kansas and it's a real considering where he
Speaker 1: came from and how good of a season he's having
Speaker 1: that they couldn't put another weapon around him because he
Speaker 1: is not the problem with this.
Speaker 3: They tried. He is.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, they tried, and we'll get to those guys.
Speaker 1: It was a mixed bag for Hunter Dickinson. He had
Speaker 1: a very good stat line nineteen points, twelve rebounds, three assists,
Speaker 1: two blocks in thirty minutes, but he struggled in the
Speaker 1: paint on both ends. He was just six for thirteen
Speaker 1: from two. Dickenson really didn't play that well this tournament,
Speaker 1: minus with three pointers. He made five threes in two games,
Speaker 1: which is more than he made an All Conference play
Speaker 1: coming alive, and it helped.
Speaker 2: It credits him.
Speaker 1: He's a good player. He found a way to impact
Speaker 1: the game when his his fastball wasn't there. But he's
Speaker 1: just not going to be good enough when his fastball
Speaker 1: is not cooking. That is a very powerful fastball to
Speaker 1: be taken away. Henry Vsar just completely wore him out
Speaker 1: down the stretch. Dickinson post game put the loss on himself.
Speaker 1: He said he has to play better or Kansas is
Speaker 1: going to lose early in the NCAAs. He's right. I
Speaker 1: have a hard time blaming him for these games. But
Speaker 1: you know, because of the stats that he put up.
Speaker 1: But that's that's just kind of it. He looked exhausted
Speaker 1: and he could not stop Visa so much. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: And I think that I don't know if it will
Speaker 1: be a popular take. I think I at least will
Speaker 1: look back on these seasons and think Kansas lost in
Speaker 1: spite of Hunter Dickinson, and if they had put a
Speaker 1: better team around him, he would be remembered way more
Speaker 1: fondly than he will be. I think he deserves better
Speaker 1: than the records that he will have.
Speaker 2: I do hope that's true.
Speaker 3: I think that's fair take.
Speaker 1: He scored twenty eight hundred career points. Everybody's saying he
Speaker 1: hasn't won anything. He scored twenty eight hundred career points. Guys,
Speaker 1: he's not. You can say empty stats all you want,
Speaker 1: but he I won't get into it because we'll be
Speaker 1: here all night. But I have a hard time. I
Speaker 1: haven't once looked at Dickinson and thought this is the problem.
Speaker 1: We all watched the Cincinnati Big Twelve tournament game last year.
Speaker 1: We saw what they look like if you take Hunter
Speaker 1: Dickinson off of it and the Zoobie edge of four
Speaker 1: crap stop edge of force having a hell of a year.
Speaker 1: He's in a great system. He would be a great
Speaker 1: player if he was at Kansas. Bill self would trade
Speaker 1: an unproven freshman for an All American Hunter Dickinson one
Speaker 1: hundred out of one hundred times if he offered in
Speaker 1: the same trade tomorrow. Dickinson is going to be an
Speaker 1: All American twice in two years at Kansas. And what
Speaker 1: you want to add Zubie in his seventeen and ten
Speaker 1: to this team. They have a center that gets seventeen
Speaker 1: and ten. How's it working?
Speaker 2: Not well? Not well?
Speaker 3: In fourty yeah, not not the best?
Speaker 2: Uh kJ Adams. He had seven points, He had eight rebounds,
Speaker 2: five assists in thirty five minutes. He only made one
Speaker 2: field goal. He did draw a lot of contact. Though
Speaker 2: he scored his most or scoring most of his points
Speaker 2: at the line. H Dwan Harris, he was very good
Speaker 2: in this game. He actually did the things that we
Speaker 2: wanted him to do. He took and made the Statons
Speaker 2: score for four six nine overall three in thirty eight minutes.
Speaker 2: He only had three assists, he did have two turnovers,
Speaker 2: but he did one Kansas fans have been asking for,
Speaker 2: and that his attack and score he did didn't really matter.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Cam, I guess that's that's kind of what we
Speaker 1: were talking about. Like Dickinson put up numbers, kJ played well,
Speaker 1: Harris was great, and they still lost by double digits.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it's it's kind of this. It's it's
Speaker 3: at the point of the year. It is the NCAA
Speaker 3: tournament time, Like we know what they are, but it
Speaker 3: is wild to think, you know, the things we talked about.
Speaker 3: They don't make enough threes. Okay they made threes. Well,
Speaker 3: de Walt Harrison needs to score, Okay, well he went
Speaker 3: and scored. But they still lost Arizona. Like they're just
Speaker 3: not good and it sucks to say that, but they
Speaker 3: just aren't good and it's the can't think about it.
Speaker 1: Yeah for theirs, but I still, yeah.
Speaker 3: I still don't think they're I think they're obviously they're
Speaker 3: better than the average team. They're they're a good ish team.
Speaker 1: I guess there are French chop twenty five fringe.
Speaker 3: I would say fringe. That's that's generous.
Speaker 1: They are a French top twenty five teams. I think
Speaker 1: they're about the twenty fifth best team in the country.
Speaker 2: And like this.
Speaker 1: We could go on forever with this, but I'm just
Speaker 1: curious if if somebody were to ask both of you,
Speaker 1: what's the biggest problem with this team, what would you say?
Speaker 2: Oh, that's it's a good question. It is I feel
Speaker 2: at this point hard to put your finger on what
Speaker 2: the problem is.
Speaker 1: Because they have Leanna and you and I were talking
Speaker 1: about this before I push record this team. You look
Speaker 1: at the other seven seeds, Saint Mary's UCLA, right, Kansas
Speaker 1: has better players than that team than those teams. They
Speaker 1: have more pieces. Those teams don't have an All America center.
Speaker 1: Those teams don't have a fiftier point guard. Those teams
Speaker 1: don't have a forty two percent sniper, the best three
Speaker 1: point shooter one of them in their conference. Like, what's
Speaker 1: going wrong here? I want to say it's the point guard,
Speaker 1: but Harris gets you sixteen and you still lose.
Speaker 2: Well, I think my real guess the best thing I
Speaker 2: could probably offer is two things. One not to toot
Speaker 2: my own horn. And also, obviously, you guys very much
Speaker 2: agreed with this take that this team is a bunch
Speaker 2: of action figures smashed together on a basketball court. So
Speaker 2: the players are individually pretty good. Obviously, they all have
Speaker 2: their own flaws, some of them very glaring, some of
Speaker 2: them not as big a deal, but they all have
Speaker 2: some problem But they're all a bunch of, like on paper,
Speaker 2: pretty good players and the system just doesn't fit like,
Speaker 2: it just doesn't fit together all that well. The other
Speaker 2: thing I think that definitely came up in this game
Speaker 2: and has come up a lot, is a complete lack
Speaker 2: of an ability to close basketball games. There is, and
Speaker 2: I think a lot of that goes to leadership, which
Speaker 2: we've talked about as we are gonna do this KU
Speaker 2: player draft got me thinking about old players at Kansas more.
Speaker 2: I think about old players at Kansas often, but I
Speaker 2: was especially thinking about them, like guys we cite all
Speaker 2: the time, but Frank Mason, DeVante Graham of those are
Speaker 2: like to all timer Kansas guards, but like those guys
Speaker 2: were the killeriest killers in late game scenarios where they
Speaker 2: just refuse to lose. Obviously, they lost games, but there's
Speaker 2: so many examples of just having over my dead body
Speaker 2: outings that no one on this team is capable of having,
Speaker 2: and that is huge in close games against good teams.
Speaker 2: That in close games against good teams, you'd give the
Speaker 2: ball to Frank Mason, you'd give the ball to Devonte Graham,
Speaker 2: and they would cook. They would do whatever they want
Speaker 2: and sometimes it wouldn't work, but you knew and you
Speaker 2: trusted those guys one hundred percent of the time to
Speaker 2: do what they had to do, and a lot of
Speaker 2: the time it did work, and you knew they.
Speaker 1: Had it in them to do it. This team does
Speaker 1: not have that. Yes, hundred Dickotson can score, but he
Speaker 1: is not that guy. Yes, Secmeo can hit threes, but
Speaker 1: he is not that guy.
Speaker 2: Dwan Harris has a lot of poise, but he is
Speaker 2: certainly not the guy that's just gonna take the game
Speaker 2: on his shoulders and win. And I think that's a
Speaker 2: huge reason why this team hasn't won a lot of games,
Speaker 2: because they crumble down the.
Speaker 1: Stretch, and that's insane. Considering that they are, that they're
Speaker 1: all seniors, and the starting lineup they have played in
Speaker 1: big games. The point guard started a National championship game,
Speaker 1: like the center is the current Division one men's scoring leader,
Speaker 1: like active point totals like these guys have experience and cam.
Speaker 1: I think it's a mixture of that and the other
Speaker 1: thing I look at is the piece that the glue
Speaker 1: piece that could really make this whole thing go in.
Speaker 1: Having that guy that can the AJ Store piece or
Speaker 1: the Ryland Griffin piece. They don't have it. They don't
Speaker 1: have a three man and that hasn't whenever you got
Speaker 1: a center and a point guard that can pass and
Speaker 1: one shooter, but you don't know the guy that can
Speaker 1: kind of do all that right there in the middle,
Speaker 1: the zone buster if you need it, the three point
Speaker 1: shooter if you need it, the slasher if you need it.
Speaker 1: And boy, they made attempts, but in case we'll talk
Speaker 1: about AJ Store like that. That just hasn't that they
Speaker 1: felt doomed earlier than at least I saw coming when
Speaker 1: you look at that, thinking they didn't have any pieces
Speaker 1: that last year's team didn't have. They have. Zeke Mayo
Speaker 1: is a better shooter than Johnny Furfy was last year.
Speaker 1: But also you take Kevin McCuller away, and I think
Speaker 1: that's a light and net negative and that's why this
Speaker 1: team is slightly worse than last year. The same team
Speaker 1: is last year a little worse because the non Dickinson,
Speaker 1: Harris and kJ pieces are worse and those three aren't
Speaker 1: any better.
Speaker 3: Yeah, McCuller was also an alpha dog and he's one
Speaker 3: that you would give the ball to in crunch time,
Speaker 3: and I think Landon kind of nailed it. You don't
Speaker 3: have anyone on this team like you look at Dawan Harris.
Speaker 3: I don't trust that guy with Paul under a minute
Speaker 3: in his hands, and he's a fifth year point guard.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just a lack of leadership. They don't
Speaker 3: have a scoring wing. Really, they can go and get
Speaker 3: you a bucket when you need it. So it's just
Speaker 3: a really bad fit. I think self went into the portal,
Speaker 3: he tried to get some guys and they didn't pan out.
Speaker 3: I think it's it's as simple as that, really.
Speaker 1: So Kevin McCuller got injured in the Cincinnati game last year,
Speaker 1: the home one, not the ghastly Big Twelve Tournament game,
Speaker 1: Kansas won that game by a few. That was Johnny
Speaker 1: Furfey's coming out party. They were sixteen and three. McCuller
Speaker 1: was hurt, he missed time off and on. He missed
Speaker 1: the game two games after that, then was obviously in
Speaker 1: an out of the lineup. After mccullar gets hurt, Kansas
Speaker 1: was seven and eight the rest of the way, and
Speaker 1: then this year they're twenty one and twelve. So you
Speaker 1: put those numbers together. Since Kevin mcculler's injury when they
Speaker 1: were sixteen and three, Kansas is twenty eight and twenty,
Speaker 1: which is a winning percentage of fifty eight percent. Obviously
Speaker 1: sixteen and three with them, it was a near eighty
Speaker 1: percent winning percentage, Like huge, huge, huge difference. I know
Speaker 1: that people weren't thrilled about the way the mccullor era ended.
Speaker 1: I think he was much more hurt than we knew
Speaker 1: at any given point in the season. But yeah, Land
Speaker 1: and that's like, I think McCuller is the one that
Speaker 1: I walk away from this last couple of year stretch
Speaker 1: and feel like I undervalued the most because this team
Speaker 1: is basically this this seam with him, they wanted an
Speaker 1: eighty percent clip which is about what Bill Sealth teams
Speaker 1: do without him. It's less than sixty. Like he's the
Speaker 1: piece last year the first two months of the year
Speaker 1: at Kevin mccullor. That's the piece that the obviously last
Speaker 1: year didn't have when he got hurt, and that's the
Speaker 1: piece this year's team doesn't have.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's that's a very observant take. I
Speaker 2: think I think that's very fair.
Speaker 1: We were hoping to be Ryland Griffin and no, just no.
Speaker 1: He made a pull up jumper for his only two points,
Speaker 1: which was actually Kansas's final lead of the game, that
Speaker 1: sixty three sixty one Leeland was talking about. But he
Speaker 1: did nothing else in eighteen minutes. He missed both of
Speaker 1: his threes, which is nothing new. Since February third, which
Speaker 1: is twelve games ago. Ryland Griffin is nineteen for seventy
Speaker 1: seven from the floor, which is actually less than twenty
Speaker 1: five percent. And believe it or not, he is actually
Speaker 1: worse shooting twos than he has threes in that stretch.
Speaker 1: Neither number is good. Thirteen for fifty one from three,
Speaker 1: which is twenty six percent, six for twenty six which
Speaker 1: is twenty three percent. I mean from two good lords, Like, no,
Speaker 1: no Division one men's basketball player should shoot twenty three
Speaker 1: on twos. That that that peas guy Jack Peas that
Speaker 1: you were talking about a couple games ago. I don't
Speaker 1: even know what school he plays for. He wouldn't go
Speaker 1: twenty three percent.
Speaker 3: Yeah game, yikes, now he wouldn't. But like, to me,
Speaker 3: that just screams the fit is horrible. Like he doesn't
Speaker 3: he's he's not a bad shooter, he's not comfortable taking shots.
Speaker 3: And then the shots he would take at Alabama, he
Speaker 3: can't take it Kansas. So like it's just a terrible fit.
Speaker 1: Well, but like I watched that same man with the
Speaker 1: same shot be so good last year. How is it possible? Saying,
Speaker 1: kick him up and drop him into a Hall of fame.
Speaker 1: Coaches offense and he cannot throw it in the ocean.
Speaker 2: Well, because stack offense blows sideways.
Speaker 3: Yes, you have a point guard with a headband that
Speaker 3: dribbles for twenty five secs and tries to negotiate contracts
Speaker 3: with NATO and then he's like, oh, I got to
Speaker 3: pass the ball off somebody else, and then a shot
Speaker 3: goes up and they're like, oh we los.
Speaker 1: One word answer? Who is the biggest problem.
Speaker 3: With this team, the Wanta hears, yeah, I think you're right.
Speaker 3: I don't think it's.
Speaker 1: You're yeah, Like if you that's also a good answer, honestly, Yeah,
Speaker 1: if you said you get the chair, dude, I will
Speaker 1: I will say. I hope that Bill self. I know
Speaker 1: people are wanting him to shake it up. I hope
Speaker 1: he doesn't approach the portal one hund differently than he
Speaker 1: used to. I hope that he still goes out and says,
Speaker 1: these guys are the best shooters in the portal. I
Speaker 1: want him that part of his strategy is fine, it's
Speaker 1: how to make him fit together when they get here
Speaker 1: and next year the team's gonnaok.
Speaker 3: Carried up John Wilkes Booth.
Speaker 1: We need next year that he did. He got him
Speaker 1: a Zeke Mayo who shoots with accuracy, and there's they're
Speaker 1: worse next year. There you go that, Hey, we were
Speaker 1: just in Dallas and watched all that you want to
Speaker 1: talk about an all time llegedly. Uh, we saw the
Speaker 1: window where Lee Harvey Oswald shot.
Speaker 3: Dude, I couldn't hit that shot in Fortnite, and I'm
Speaker 3: a decent Fortnite player. You got MEETI skin with a
Speaker 3: bolt action sniper rifle from a two story building, a
Speaker 3: book depository.
Speaker 1: I did whenever I was there, and I saw the
Speaker 1: X in the street and I heard I heard it.
Speaker 3: There was AX in the street.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they have a They have an X where the
Speaker 1: where the shot was fired. Yeah, it's just there. I
Speaker 1: sent it to you, guys with a relatively insensitive joke,
Speaker 1: and my thought process was Cam would make a much
Speaker 1: more insensitive joke if he was.
Speaker 3: I don't think I read that, to be honest, I
Speaker 3: don't remember when the text came through.
Speaker 1: You were on your scre you were on your sports
Speaker 1: betting high, you were making money. You didn't have any
Speaker 1: time for us, all right, and tell me about tell
Speaker 1: me about everybody else.
Speaker 2: Yeah, David Koy, he made three threes off the bench
Speaker 2: for nine points. That's good. I think he's not the problem, guys.
Speaker 2: Uh Flory had four and five in fourteen minutes, including
Speaker 2: a couple of athletic putbacks. He also fouled four times,
Speaker 2: and it was part of the reason the paint defense
Speaker 2: was not good. Also, one game after scoring nineteen, aj
Speaker 2: Store in fact did not become leak Store Remy Store,
Speaker 2: as he had zero points. Seri rebound, zero sists, and
Speaker 2: zero steals in nine minutes. It should have been zero minutes.
Speaker 2: He scored double figures four times this year, and in
Speaker 2: the ensuing game in all four instances. I did not
Speaker 2: know this. This is insane. He had zero points.
Speaker 3: Huh.
Speaker 1: The most disappointing player in the celf Era more than
Speaker 1: any one and done because like people say Al Marco
Speaker 1: or MJ. Rice, those were eighteen year old times. AJ Store. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Aj Store was an all Big ten player.
Speaker 2: Like he has done it at the Division one level,
Speaker 2: at the Power five level, and he's an upperclassman.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's terrible. He at no point, at no point
Speaker 1: this year did any of us watch aj Store play
Speaker 1: and we're like, oh, that's what they saw in the portal,
Speaker 1: Like we haven't seen a single moment of this, say
Speaker 1: from a UCF game.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I agree. Also, just just for our listeners
Speaker 3: out there that care, because this is amazing. I'm scrolling
Speaker 3: through our group chat right now. In the context of
Speaker 3: our group chat over the last three days. There's a
Speaker 3: picture of Chris Beard's mug shot. There's a picture of
Speaker 3: where jo F Kennedy was shot. There's a picture of
Speaker 3: a bottle of whiskey. There's a picture of landing at
Speaker 3: a soccer game. There's also a picture of well the
Speaker 3: bullie from a Christmas story. That's another one.
Speaker 1: If that's who you thought.
Speaker 3: Henry Visar looked like, yeah, no, it's pretty good, but
Speaker 3: it's just I'm trying to find this this thing from JFK.
Speaker 3: But carry on, right, that's pretty amazing. Oh there's a
Speaker 3: crack of Tawa meme for me blowing up a toilet.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say this is the ultimate. We're
Speaker 1: all trying to find the guy who did this hot
Speaker 1: dog meme. Cam looking at our group chat as a
Speaker 1: pile of ashes and being like, wow, this is bad, guys.
Speaker 3: There's literally there's a picture of a guy in a
Speaker 3: five guys surrounded by other ethnic groups, which oh.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, we can't. We can't touch
Speaker 1: on that one much, no sir. Oh what is this drop?
Speaker 1: Oh it's a phone.
Speaker 3: Oh there's a video of eating a hobbin europepper.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, how did I forget about that? Already?
Speaker 1: Have your Yeah, so cam man Cam made a habit
Speaker 1: aro pepper the other day and sent us a video
Speaker 1: of it, and he looks like that his reaction looks
Speaker 1: like he's being forced to watch the Northern Iowa Kansas
Speaker 1: hate from twenty ten and uh and then Land and
Speaker 1: I the whole time are like why why would any
Speaker 1: human choose to do this? And Cam's like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: I shouldn't have done this, but I did.
Speaker 3: There's legitimately a picture in our group chat that says
Speaker 3: a grandpa in a pitch black Viet Cong tunnel, guided
Speaker 3: by nothing but the voices like what like what again?
Speaker 1: Hot dog meme? We're all trying to find the guy
Speaker 1: who did this, Oh Cam, Cam is one of one.
Speaker 1: So Kansas forty two percent from the floor, forty five
Speaker 1: percent from three, and sixty nine percent of the line
Speaker 1: and even on the glass. If you had told us
Speaker 1: that before the game, we probably would have said they won.
Speaker 1: Not only do they not, they didn't even keep it
Speaker 1: within double they didn't even keep it to single digits.
Speaker 1: They turned over thirteen times. Yeah, just not very good.
Speaker 1: And Arizona played well, but like you're basically the home team,
Speaker 1: you just beat them a few, like, just more things
Speaker 1: have to go right. As they're they're looking at a
Speaker 1: bracket where they're gonna play Arkansas and they're a five
Speaker 1: point favorite. You gotta play well to win that. In
Speaker 1: the past, Kansas hasn't had to play well to beat
Speaker 1: a double digit seed in the first round. They're gonna
Speaker 1: have to play well to beat Arkansas. And if you
Speaker 1: want to beat Saint John's, you got to have one
Speaker 1: of your three best games of the year.
Speaker 2: Like, that's not the situation this Arkansas team before.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, Hunter didn't play there, sir, and I saw
Speaker 1: someone on Twitter say, neither did Ryland. Oh boy, that
Speaker 1: would have made a difference.
Speaker 3: That's gonna make a big impact right there. His two paints.
Speaker 2: They're gonna make a big sunrise sunset. This could be
Speaker 2: all right.
Speaker 1: Well, normally we normally we stop recording here. Let's go
Speaker 1: ahead and fly through these other games real quick, and
Speaker 1: then we'll stop it before our KU feature Bay Champ
Speaker 1: Week recap other games in the Big Twelve. Well, there
Speaker 1: was no doubting who the Kings of the Big Twelve
Speaker 1: were this year. Number two. Houston demolished BYU and then
Speaker 1: shook off a halftime cam allegedly had some bucks on
Speaker 1: BYU and Landa and I were like, why Houston hasn't
Speaker 1: lost and any circumstance besides one all year. But you
Speaker 1: know that's that's that's why we that's why we pay
Speaker 1: Cam the big bucks because he gains them to make
Speaker 1: up for his betting losses. So Houston demolishes BYU and
Speaker 1: then they shake off a halftime deficit to beat Arizona
Speaker 1: seventy two to sixty four in the title game, getting
Speaker 1: their revenge member Houston was obliterated by Iowa State last
Speaker 1: year in the title game. They get it back here
Speaker 1: and they win one. The Cougars go twenty two to
Speaker 1: one against Big twelve opponents last this year, and the
Speaker 1: loss wasn't overtime. Really, yes, just sur to say the least.
Speaker 1: We were denied a likely round three with Texas Tech
Speaker 1: after the Red Raiders had the injury bug and the
Speaker 1: sickness bugs spreading around their team. They missed a couple
Speaker 1: of starters and JT. Toppin was in and out of
Speaker 1: the Arizona semi final sick. They came up just short
Speaker 1: against Arizona. They probably at full strength would have given
Speaker 1: Houston the better game, but ultimately Houston, this was their
Speaker 1: league and Calvin Sampson really rubbed Iowa State fans. The
Speaker 1: wrong way when he downplayed the significance of the Big
Speaker 1: Twelve Tournament. After this, he was like, yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: this week is cool and all, but winning the regular
Speaker 1: season is way more meaningful. And all the whitest white
Speaker 1: people in Iowa and their burgundy red shirts stood up
Speaker 1: and said, Hey, our trip to Kansas City is the
Speaker 1: highlight of my year. You don't talk that way about us,
Speaker 1: not really, but you know, Iowa State fans do love
Speaker 1: them a good Big Twelve Tournament.
Speaker 3: I mean, in their defense, going to Kansas City for
Speaker 3: names Iowa's kind of like going to Punta Canaa for Michigan,
Speaker 3: Like that is.
Speaker 1: A tropical vacation, and they fill that place up. The
Speaker 1: Big Twelve Tournament was very, very empty, relatively speaking, for
Speaker 1: that title game. Everybody left town after Iowa State and
Speaker 1: Kansas lost on Thursday.
Speaker 3: I saw that.
Speaker 2: In the SEC Vegas. Florida impressively won the loaded SEC
Speaker 2: tournament in Nashville. They got revenge on Missouri, they blew
Speaker 2: out Alabama, and then they handled Tennessee in the finals.
Speaker 2: Auburn bout out in the Semis to the Balls, while
Speaker 2: the Crimson Tide got blasted by Florida after outscoring Kentucky
Speaker 2: the night four, which that is how all Kentucky games
Speaker 2: go this season. Either Kentucky outscores their opponent or they
Speaker 2: get out scored, which I know is how basketball literally
Speaker 2: speaking works. But those games are always ninety five to something.
Speaker 1: Alabama too, they're both they both do the same thing,
Speaker 1: and they got blitz creaked by Florida like they could
Speaker 1: not stop anything. Yeah, have like sixty five points in
Speaker 1: the second half or something like that.
Speaker 2: This tournament also featured two legendary games, with Texas's two
Speaker 2: overtime win or Texas A and M giving me pick
Speaker 2: them hope for but a mere moment on money yep,
Speaker 2: when otega Oway beat his former Oklahoma team at the
Speaker 2: Buzzer for the second time this year, both being Knights to.
Speaker 1: Remember, especially for Landon because that put him to sleep.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, hello Chicago.
Speaker 1: And I so Lanta and I the pickum seasons. Everybody
Speaker 1: would laugh so hard if they understood why Cam was
Speaker 1: saying that. So the pick them always comes down to
Speaker 1: we picked through KU's eventual exit in the Big Trolve
Speaker 1: Tournament because that's the last time. We don't count the NCAAs,
Speaker 1: so we probably could. But whatever. So that's in the end,
Speaker 1: and Landon and I were tied and we both picked
Speaker 1: five games. We picked five games differently, so it's gonna
Speaker 1: come down to whoever was right on three of them.
Speaker 1: And Landon had the early lead where you were up
Speaker 1: two to one, and all you needed to clinch, not
Speaker 1: finishing last than pick them was an Oklahoma went over
Speaker 1: Kentucky or a Kansas went over Arizona and nope, nope,
Speaker 1: Bill self and Porter Moser, you're you're I.
Speaker 2: Am a fool the picker of Porter Moser.
Speaker 1: And that was wild. Did you see the end of
Speaker 1: that game? Oklahoma scored like twelve points in the final
Speaker 1: like forty seconds and took the lead.
Speaker 3: How do you lose that?
Speaker 1: Well, Porter, that's out and somehow he safely got in
Speaker 1: the NCAA tournament. That's very disappointed. I wanted to see
Speaker 1: that man go oh for life making a tournament at
Speaker 1: ou But don't worry, they'll lose in the first.
Speaker 3: Rap yep uh in the Big East. For the first
Speaker 3: time in twenty five years, Number six Saint John's won
Speaker 3: the Big East Tournament handily, defeating Butler, Marquette, and Creighton.
Speaker 3: Along the way. Rick Pattino officially becomes the first coach
Speaker 3: ever to take six different programs to the NCAA tournament
Speaker 3: and lose to an Appleby's waitress. The real fireworks in
Speaker 3: this tournament happened in the Creighton Yukon semi final when
Speaker 3: the Blue Jays threw down an f you dunk as
Speaker 3: time expired and a shoving match ensued. And in my opinion,
Speaker 3: that's completely fine because Dan Hurley sucks.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but did you see Hassandiara like put his fits
Speaker 1: stop getting ready to fight the dude that through that?
Speaker 2: What what are you doing?
Speaker 1: You're not gonna starting?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: What was that? Dan Hurley?
Speaker 2: Rane watched his guys man, the same.
Speaker 1: Dan Hurley who walked out of Omaha after beating Creighton
Speaker 1: and waved at the fans and shouted two rings, two rings.
Speaker 1: Then gets in the postgame presser and wants to talk
Speaker 1: about the poor sportsmanship that Creighton showed.
Speaker 3: The get out of the rules for me, yes, but
Speaker 3: not for the correct yes rules for yes. Actually yes,
Speaker 3: that is very damn. I don't think he's it's not,
Speaker 3: by the way. I think that's just who he is.
Speaker 3: I think he sucks.
Speaker 1: Oh, he's a psychopath. I've seen a couple of his
Speaker 1: interview segments after they won, like and I've seen people
Speaker 1: saying he got lucky. No, he did, and they won
Speaker 1: every tournament game by thirteen points like he they they
Speaker 1: He is an amazing basketball coach. And if he wasn't
Speaker 1: an amazing basketball coach, no one would take him seriously.
Speaker 1: He'd be like Bobby Hurley, ironically, his brother. He was
Speaker 1: just kind of like goofy little troll and the way
Speaker 1: over there, it's so adorable, like you almost think it's cute.
Speaker 1: But when Dan Hurley it makes you mad because he
Speaker 1: wins all the time, and yes, he's good for the sport,
Speaker 1: and wow, is he an all time narcissistic psychopath.
Speaker 2: That doesn't what you expect, Yukon. When you're the two
Speaker 2: time reigning national champion and a team beats you in
Speaker 2: the conference tournament, they're gonna they're gonna be hype.
Speaker 1: Yeah, especially two teams that don't like each other at
Speaker 1: all that you pissed off when you beat them in
Speaker 1: their venue earlier this year. They live in Omaha, Man,
Speaker 1: they have nothing to care about besides basketball.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, that's pretty much ye Honestly.
Speaker 1: In the acc to nobody's surprise. Number one Duke won
Speaker 1: the tournament, but it was a little surprising how they
Speaker 1: managed to do it without Cooper Flagg, who had a
Speaker 1: disgustingly terrible ankle sprain very early in their first game.
Speaker 1: Uh it's a miracle, Like, Uh, my wife is a
Speaker 1: nurse and she watched that play happen and said, if
Speaker 1: that's anybody but like a Division one athlete, that is
Speaker 1: a broken ankle, and other things like the fact that
Speaker 1: he landed like he jumped so high off the ground
Speaker 1: and that ankle was sideways. It was a three o'clock sprain.
Speaker 1: It's amazing that he, even after being wheelchaired off, was
Speaker 1: able to hopefully play in the NCAAs and he will.
Speaker 1: He's they said he's gonna give it a go. So
Speaker 1: he avoided catastrophe there. Duke's kind of banged up. Now.
Speaker 1: They should have ended North Carolina season in the semis.
Speaker 1: But the chair of the tournament is the Tar Hills
Speaker 1: ad And then the Duke roared pass number thirteen louisvill
Speaker 1: by eleven in the second half to win the title game.
Speaker 1: This is a Duke's first win over a ranked team
Speaker 1: since December, when they are fully healthy. I think they're
Speaker 1: the best team in the field, but we just don't
Speaker 1: know if they are. Also, we'll talk about it. We'll
Speaker 1: talk about it. But North Carolina and the tournament is
Speaker 1: the worst at large decision I've seen the committee make.
Speaker 3: You are.
Speaker 2: But I am one million per seated for R. J.
Speaker 2: Davis's last ride.
Speaker 1: Agree would much rather have them than West Virginia. From
Speaker 1: a from an eyeball test, that's fine, but like, don't
Speaker 1: act like that it's anything but favorites. Don't act like
Speaker 1: metrics went into this because there's no mathematic argument for
Speaker 1: North Carolina over West Virginia.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Trump bought five totally normal cryptos that aren't
Speaker 2: tied to anybody. He knows their loves by the way, anyway,
Speaker 2: I don't know what that's about. But anyway, back to
Speaker 2: the basketball thing. Michigan, Michigan, they won the Big Ten.
Speaker 2: They won the worst championship basketball. I watched part of
Speaker 2: this and turned it off to play MV the Show
Speaker 2: with my roommate. Apparently I missed. Now they came back
Speaker 2: late on number eighteen Wisconsin fifty nine to fifty three.
Speaker 2: That score does not do the game justice because it
Speaker 2: was thirty eight thirty four to ten minutes left. That
Speaker 2: is truly bad before the and then it turned into.
Speaker 1: An Alabama Kentucky game like out of nowhere.
Speaker 2: And still dree Yeah, the Badgers beat Michigan State to
Speaker 2: get to the finals. Michigan State still ends up being
Speaker 2: a two seed on the Badgers. They ended up as
Speaker 2: a three, right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they that Wisconsin is a four? Aren't they that three?
Speaker 2: Or therefore?
Speaker 1: I think I don't know there are three?
Speaker 2: Well, Michigan's a five against UC San Diego. We'll talk
Speaker 2: about all that tomorrow.
Speaker 1: But Cam, I couldn't help but notice during the Michigan
Speaker 1: State Wisconsin semi final you seem to have a very
Speaker 1: strong rooting interest.
Speaker 3: Yeah. No, I I definitely was wagering some United States
Speaker 3: currency on tom Is because it is his A month
Speaker 3: according to my friends. And it turns out was not
Speaker 3: his A month yesterday.
Speaker 1: No, it never is. It hasn't been his O month
Speaker 1: since the Twin Towers were standing. He hasn't won a title.
Speaker 3: In I know. I don't think they're gonna win it
Speaker 3: this year, either, but I do think they're good. I
Speaker 3: don't know what it's gonna mean.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, I lost lose heartbreaking lost to Marquette.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say that. I don't about right, No.
Speaker 3: Smart beats tom Izzel.
Speaker 1: I mean, didn't Michigan State beat Uh didn't Michigan State
Speaker 1: beat Marquette in the seven to two game like a
Speaker 1: couple of years ago and now it's the same game.
Speaker 3: But flipped I think so.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, so Cam, you just said if if
Speaker 1: Shaka beats tom Izzo, No, I'm going to read you
Speaker 1: some names. Let's take a look at the list of
Speaker 1: coaches that has defeated tom Izzo in the nca Tournament.
Speaker 1: Last year, Hubert Davis.
Speaker 3: That's not ideal.
Speaker 2: No, that's really not ideal.
Speaker 1: The year before that, Jerome Tang the year I can
Speaker 1: keep going as long as you want.
Speaker 3: The year.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Middle Tennessee one. I have no idea. Sha
Speaker 1: Chefsky beat him in the last year. I yeah, Middle
Speaker 1: Tennessee was sixteen. What you want to know the coach's name? God,
Speaker 1: I have no freaking idea.
Speaker 2: Who the coach is?
Speaker 1: Kermit Davis, who has the largest forehead of any man
Speaker 1: I've ever seen. Picture going in the notes. That's not
Speaker 1: what I pictured Kermit Davis to look like. But here
Speaker 1: it is.
Speaker 3: It's Kermit Davis, just Hubert Davis, Kermit the frog cost.
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, gracious.
Speaker 1: I don't think he looked. He doesn't look like Hubert Davis.
Speaker 2: Can It looks like it looks like you could put
Speaker 2: the bat signal on that thing.
Speaker 3: So old.
Speaker 1: This hired Kermit Davis after watching Middle Tennessee State beat
Speaker 1: Michigan State. And then they got him out to hire
Speaker 1: someone who allegedly hit his wife.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't I don't know about alleged.
Speaker 2: That got choked out.
Speaker 1: I don't think he'll sell it. And Bill self got
Speaker 1: got is o once, didn't he?
Speaker 3: Jim behintbody is a beat sol from the tournament.
Speaker 2: The Spartans were like an eight or nine in Kansas
Speaker 2: ye fifteen.
Speaker 1: So Nick Cronin, Mick Cronin, Mike Kryshevski, Uh, Jerome Hang,
Speaker 1: and Hubert Davis are the last four men that have
Speaker 1: beat uh tom Izzo in the in the tournament. One
Speaker 1: of them is a Hall of Fame one the others.
Speaker 3: M you know, give me, I don't even care anymore.
Speaker 3: I don't care. My my anti Michigan State stick is over.
Speaker 3: I just don't care anymore.
Speaker 1: And then in the AAC. Memphis won it. They earned
Speaker 1: a five seed. Wow, guys, this will for sure be
Speaker 1: the year Penny Hardaway goes further than we think he will.
Speaker 3: They're gonna get torched by whoever. They're twelve is is
Speaker 3: if you see you?
Speaker 1: No, it's yeah, it's Colorado State, isn't it? Who won? Like?
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, no, give me the Rams, dude, Yeah, give
Speaker 3: me the Rams.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 1: I think you're right. Ranked teams to lose since the
Speaker 1: last show, it is literally every single one besides Duke Houston, Florida,
Speaker 1: Michigan and Saint John's and Memphis. I think Memphis is ranked.
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe five seed Memphis. All right, there
Speaker 1: you go last weekend pick them Cam good, Ryan less
Speaker 1: good but still okay?
Speaker 2: And Landon, Hey, I was eleven.
Speaker 3: They call it.
Speaker 2: That's good. I just you know you guys are psycho.
Speaker 3: January February camp.
Speaker 1: Okay. So, now with no games, the preview, and no
Speaker 1: ask arcbs for the day, we are gonna do something
Speaker 1: new that Landon has orchestrated. So Landon, I'm gonna turn
Speaker 1: it over to you and you're gonna tell us the rules.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So we are going to do a ITP era
Speaker 2: Kansas Player Draft. The ITP eras from twenty thirteen to fourteen.
Speaker 2: That's the Andrew Wiggins freshman year all the way up
Speaker 2: until this year. I thought it was fun. This is
Speaker 2: basically a segment on a movie podcast that I really like,
Speaker 2: where they draft movies from specific years or genres or whatever.
Speaker 2: And I was like, that sounds really fun. We could
Speaker 2: do that with KU players, and we're going to do it.
Speaker 2: So here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna draft six
Speaker 2: players each. We're gonna put them, generally speaking, in a
Speaker 2: starting five. You can, you know, argue how you want
Speaker 2: to put players at certain positions if you want, that's fine,
Speaker 2: but we're gonna draft a starting five and a sixth
Speaker 2: man six players each. We're gonna do it in snake
Speaker 2: draft order. We have designated the order as the pick
Speaker 2: him order, So it's gonna be Cam first and Ryan
Speaker 2: then me, so Cam will have a pick, Ryan a
Speaker 2: pick all of two, and then we'll turn it around.
Speaker 2: Most people listening to this probably understand fantasy football. It's
Speaker 2: like that. So all right, the specificity of this real quick.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna lay this out just so we're all clear,
Speaker 2: and everyone listening, generally speaking, at least understands what we're
Speaker 2: doing enough. We are gonna be selecting an individual season
Speaker 2: for a player, not their entire career. That makes it
Speaker 2: a little more fair for like one and Don's and
Speaker 2: stuff for the sake of simplicity. Though, once we select
Speaker 2: a player from any season of a specific player, the
Speaker 2: rest of their career is gonna be off the board.
Speaker 2: So we can't pick like two years of Frank Mason
Speaker 2: or two years of Hunter Dickinson or something.
Speaker 3: Only one.
Speaker 1: So whenever, whenever I under the radar snipe and take
Speaker 1: El Marco's freshman season, that you guys can't have the
Speaker 1: rest of it.
Speaker 2: Okay, yes, exactly, yes, yes so or that also for
Speaker 2: all of us, just at least loosely specify what year
Speaker 2: you're taking of a guy. Make sure you uh in
Speaker 2: some way designate what year you're taking. Like I said,
Speaker 2: we're doing the ip era from twenty thirteen up until now. Also,
Speaker 2: we're drafting for college careers specifically, not they're like whatever
Speaker 2: they've done or not done in the NBA. So like
Speaker 2: you know, Josh Jackson might be a better pick than
Speaker 2: Joel Embiid. That's the only time that's ever been true.
Speaker 1: But for this it is h any question unless you
Speaker 1: want someone who can drive a car into the you know,
Speaker 1: or tailwide or whatever.
Speaker 3: You have right right, that's rock, go for it.
Speaker 1: No one, take Hunter Dickinson. That's all I asked, Cam.
Speaker 1: You have one pick ahead and.
Speaker 3: Don't do it. Also, are we going position by position
Speaker 3: or does it matter?
Speaker 2: You can do any order you'd like. If you really want,
Speaker 2: you could take your sixth man first. That'd be weird,
Speaker 2: but you could do that. You can.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't do that.
Speaker 2: Whoever you want to take, you can take.
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna build my team how I want to.
Speaker 2: All right, go for it, do it. But there's no.
Speaker 1: So this doesn't have like but we're not gonna be
Speaker 1: able to like analyze. Maybe what I'll do is I'll
Speaker 1: put it on Twitter and I'll let the people vote
Speaker 1: on who has the best team, because I was gonna
Speaker 1: say that.
Speaker 2: It's not like.
Speaker 1: Fantasy football where we can like play it out and
Speaker 1: see what who who has the best squad?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to verte put it on Twitter, let
Speaker 2: the people vote.
Speaker 1: All right, I'll do that, all right.
Speaker 3: My style is going to be bizarre.
Speaker 1: Cam, you are up first. You can have anybody you want.
Speaker 3: Yeah, to make it easier.
Speaker 2: Okay, there you go.
Speaker 1: That's that's the clear number one pick. Good job Cam, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think it is. Thank you, so you have to
Speaker 1: yours also type it in. Yeah, you're responsible for for
Speaker 1: typing in. So you go with the you think that's
Speaker 1: the best season.
Speaker 3: So is that twenty seventeen? I think yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: So all right, I'm gonna I'm gonna go a little
Speaker 1: bit of a different angle after watching this Kansas team.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to to share a little strategy here.
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of good point guards, and
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of good bigs. But what
Speaker 1: I really need to anchor my team is a sniper
Speaker 1: with experience and pedigree. So I'm gonna go with the
Speaker 1: second overall pay I'm gonna take my three man first
Speaker 1: right away, and I am gonna go for the player
Speaker 1: that I believe had the most decorated season in the
Speaker 1: history of Kansas basketball. I've done a lot, and I've
Speaker 1: done a lot other than Danny. Can't take Danny's in
Speaker 1: the eighty eight season. I've done a lot of thinking
Speaker 1: about this, and I am gonna go with twenty twenty two.
Speaker 1: Oh Chaiabaji? Here who was he made over? He made
Speaker 1: over one hundred threes at a very high clip. We
Speaker 1: saw him be clutch on the biggest stage, one most
Speaker 1: outstanding player in the final four. We saw him carry
Speaker 1: a national championship team. I got the most important thing
Speaker 1: that a player can do on a basketball court, which
Speaker 1: is consistently hit threes. He could score at the rim.
Speaker 1: He was a good free throw shooter, and he was
Speaker 1: good on the big stage. I think he had the
Speaker 1: best individual season if you include accolades that any player
Speaker 1: under Bill Salva is at.
Speaker 2: So okay, that's a good I like Ochai. I wondered
Speaker 2: what you would do here. I so I could do
Speaker 2: something because I think you've actually misjudged one category. So
Speaker 2: I could go with two players that might hurt you
Speaker 2: a little bit. If I'm really gonna game this.
Speaker 1: Yeah you could. This is that three and four is
Speaker 1: a great opportunity. You could snag the next two point
Speaker 1: guard seasons and really knock me down a little bit
Speaker 1: here and that.
Speaker 2: See, that is what I'm considering doing. I am gonna
Speaker 2: do one. I'm gonna go with twenty eighteen. DeVante Graham
Speaker 2: kind of unsurprisingly yeap, that is. I mean, that was
Speaker 2: a seventeen and seven assist year, you know, hit over
Speaker 2: one hundred threes, went to the final four. Uh So
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go twenty eighteen Dvante Graham with pick one.
Speaker 2: I'm debating between two players, one beaging point yard and
Speaker 2: one being I think I have to do this because
Speaker 2: I think it's one of the best and more underrated
Speaker 2: seasons recently. I'm gonna go with twenty twenty three Jalen Wilson.
Speaker 1: That's what I was gonna do next. That too, exactly
Speaker 1: why I wanted to pair next to o Chai.
Speaker 2: M because he averaged twenty and eight, and yes it
Speaker 2: was maybe slightly inefficient, but that guy was a four
Speaker 2: that he's a gravitational force on his own. Really one
Speaker 2: of the best, one of the best, just outright seasons
Speaker 2: I think of any individual in the Bill Self era.
Speaker 2: He was brilliant that year.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's exactly that. That's the correct pick. I am
Speaker 1: gonna do something here and I with with pick five,
Speaker 1: I have only one position that hasn't been touched, and
Speaker 1: that is the center position. I wanted to originally go
Speaker 1: here and take the best center. But I think the
Speaker 1: right strategy is you guys aren't gonna take you know,
Speaker 1: two seven footers. That's just not how either of us,
Speaker 1: any of us, build a basketball team. So I think
Speaker 1: that the third even if I'm stuck with the third
Speaker 1: best seven footer, true center, that still goes a lot further.
Speaker 1: I've got a snag of point guard here at some point,
Speaker 1: but I'm not quite sure exactly the best. Like this
Speaker 1: is where it gets very very interesting. I think I
Speaker 1: will go ahead, and because you guys each have there
Speaker 1: are three dogs in the Kansas point Guard self era,
Speaker 1: three guys that go get your bucket when you had
Speaker 1: to have one. They were clutch, they were great for
Speaker 1: four years. And I think I gotta grab the third
Speaker 1: one of them. Here. I have to take Searan Collins,
Speaker 1: but I don't want his twenty ten season, which oh
Speaker 1: I can't do that, can I.
Speaker 2: Collins is not in the I t P era. This
Speaker 2: is not the it IP man.
Speaker 1: This is this is interesting. Okay, well, now see now
Speaker 1: it does get interesting because the other point guards that
Speaker 1: have been in the i TP era are nearly now
Speaker 1: I know who I am missing, and I have a
Speaker 1: I'm not missing. Dewan Harris don't say that, but I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go ahead, and I don't love having to make
Speaker 1: this pick here, but I'm gonna go ahead and take
Speaker 1: twenty twenty de von Dodge. That's okay, that's as as
Speaker 1: the point because I have to get one, and if
Speaker 1: you or Cam takes one, then the next option, like
Speaker 1: a guy like a Mario Chalmers, is ineligible. So then
Speaker 1: I'm really I'm really reaching. I have to take dots
Speaker 1: in at.
Speaker 3: Five, all right, So I'm just gonna build a freakishly
Speaker 3: athletic team for fun. I'm gonna put this is gonna
Speaker 3: be like Bill Solf and the Portal, just throwing guys
Speaker 3: together that are gonna get fire bombed by a twelve seed.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take freshman year Andrew Wiggins.
Speaker 1: I'm throwing Cam.
Speaker 3: I know, I know, I love it. I'm throwing I
Speaker 3: wondered how high Wiggins would go out the guard slash
Speaker 3: forward position. So that is what twenty fifteen is that
Speaker 3: twenty fifteen Injrew Wiggins fourteen fourteen? Is it my pick again?
Speaker 1: Yep?
Speaker 3: Oh, Ryan's gonna hate me so much. All right, next
Speaker 3: position and I'm taking I'm taking the good Dick Grady Dick.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I knew he was gonna go for you're going
Speaker 1: with a shooting.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm going for that Caucasian shooter. Call me John
Speaker 3: Wilkes Booth. I'll take uh.
Speaker 1: Can can we take Darreon Peterson? Is he allowed? Technically
Speaker 1: he will be in the IP era.
Speaker 2: He will be He's not yet all right.
Speaker 1: So I'm between two names here as I prepare for
Speaker 1: pick number eight, I'm between two, and strategically, I think
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the one that fills my needs
Speaker 1: the most. But I'm pretty confident Landon is gonna take
Speaker 1: the guy I'm not taking next. So I, as my foreman,
Speaker 1: am gonna go out and lock in seventeen Josh Jackson
Speaker 1: because I need that athleticism. I need someone who can score.
Speaker 1: I was gonna take Wiggans. I think he was a
Speaker 1: better player than Jackson at Kansas. Maybe not the better season,
Speaker 1: but he played on a much, much worse team. So
Speaker 1: I'll go ahead and do that, and I'm gonna cross
Speaker 1: my fingers Landon doesn't snipe. I got two names in mind,
Speaker 1: Please don't snipe them.
Speaker 3: Both.
Speaker 2: Well, I got two picks, so let's let's see what
Speaker 2: I can do. I hmm, okay, how do we want
Speaker 2: to do this?
Speaker 1: There's a lot of good point guard and a fore
Speaker 1: man at this point, nobody's taking a center.
Speaker 2: No, yeah, no, true big has gone.
Speaker 3: Listen to what we're doing, Bill, how do you build
Speaker 3: your team?
Speaker 2: Which does tempt me to go with a with a
Speaker 2: with a five? But I don't know. I don't know
Speaker 2: if there's one that I want to take desperately here.
Speaker 1: If you don't take one here, then there's gonna be
Speaker 1: four picks between when you go next, and you gotta
Speaker 1: think eventually someone's gonna.
Speaker 2: Go Yeah, well I think first before I do that. Actually,
Speaker 2: I'm we can. I'm allowing googling of stats, so I'm
Speaker 2: gonna do that real quick. Okay, I'm googling a certain
Speaker 2: a certain player's statistics he played at Kansas Believe it
Speaker 2: or not, I hope it was during the it Oh
Speaker 2: it was. Oh.
Speaker 3: I talked about him while landing goes in. Uh the googler.
Speaker 3: I'd like to remind everyone that this episode is brought
Speaker 3: to you by Better Help. Use code cam slash gambling
Speaker 3: for a discount on your first session of therapy. We're
Speaker 3: not sponsored by Better Help. Better Help. If you're listening
Speaker 3: or Medello Beer Company, we will take your help.
Speaker 1: Wow. I thought Landon was googling stats and he wrote
Speaker 1: something very inappropriate the notes instead. That's so mean, Landon,
Speaker 1: don't do that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't do that. I didn't do that.
Speaker 1: This these notes might be shared with show me Hawk
Speaker 1: one day.
Speaker 2: I man, I hope I'm not forgetting somebody. I'm gonna
Speaker 2: go with twenty eighteen Sema Kai Luke.
Speaker 1: Freaking damn. I hate picking second. I hate this dude.
Speaker 3: You should have picked better and pick.
Speaker 2: Him and then, boy, I could, I could do it
Speaker 2: right now.
Speaker 1: I'm really building the twenty eighteen team the.
Speaker 4: Worst I I'm gonna take twenty twenty five Hunters.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, Dickinson, Yeah.
Speaker 1: So interesting. Explain that. Explain how of any center that
Speaker 1: the decent change?
Speaker 2: I think I'm I'm genuinely changing my pick. I'm changing
Speaker 2: my pick. I haven't locked it in. I'm changing and
Speaker 2: I'm changing it. I'm gonna go twenty nineteen Didric Lawson,
Speaker 2: Oh wow.
Speaker 3: I see.
Speaker 1: I think Hunter was I think Hunter was better than
Speaker 1: did Jerk.
Speaker 2: I think Didrich was better than Hunter.
Speaker 1: I think Diedrich and Wilson playing together is fascinating.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Diedrich is kind of the true five man version
Speaker 2: of Jalen Wilson. Like they are very similar players in
Speaker 2: a lot of ways. They can both shoot threes, they
Speaker 2: can both handle the ball, they can both pass, they
Speaker 2: can both rebound, uh speaking rebound decently well as well.
Speaker 2: That's I think that's a really fun four guys I
Speaker 2: have so far with DeVante's feed, Jalen and Dedrich Lawson
Speaker 2: uh Dedrick coverage like nineteen and ten on a team
Speaker 2: that was more dysfunctional and still better than the current
Speaker 2: the last two Kansas teams, to be honest, See.
Speaker 1: Where it gets interesting here is like I want half
Speaker 1: season so bad, and I'm not quite sure I do that.
Speaker 1: Like twenty eighteen Malik Newman, if I get the second half,
Speaker 1: it's he's the best shooter here, or like twenty nineteen
Speaker 1: le Gerald Vick, if I get the first half, then
Speaker 1: he's freaking lethal. But you have to calculate in this
Speaker 1: entire season. It makes it a lot more challenging, and
Speaker 1: whenever you take away the non it TP years, it
Speaker 1: definitely makes this really interesting. So I am going to
Speaker 1: go ahead and I'm going to work out a little
Speaker 1: bit of a strategy here. I need another shooter and
Speaker 1: I'm just going through the years, and I want, like
Speaker 1: like Geez in my scenario, if I plug like a
Speaker 1: Brandon Green into this, then I think I could think.
Speaker 1: I think I could coach him out of that doghouse.
Speaker 1: I do, but that's not how the game works. That's
Speaker 1: not how it works. So I think I'm going to
Speaker 1: do something here that may surprise you a little bit.
Speaker 1: I am going to take who I believe is the
Speaker 1: most consistent and the best three point shooter that we
Speaker 1: haven't named yet. I want to put him around quality
Speaker 1: supporting cast and see what he does. And that is
Speaker 1: three Man twenty twenty five, Zeke Mayo. I want to
Speaker 1: put him next to oh Chaia Baji, and I want
Speaker 1: to put him next to a point guard in Dotson
Speaker 1: in this case that can drive to the cup and
Speaker 1: also pass. I think Zeke would get a lot of
Speaker 1: open looks. He is shooting a better percentage at forty
Speaker 1: two percent on this type of volume than almost all
Speaker 1: of these guys did. He's a better.
Speaker 2: Shooter than O Chai.
Speaker 1: He was a better shooter than Grady Dick and he's
Speaker 1: just as good as a shooter A Savie m. Kailaks
Speaker 1: statistically like, theoretically this should work. I'm going with a
Speaker 1: very high floor or high ceiling low floor squad here,
Speaker 1: also going for a team that if we need to
Speaker 1: kick a tail light out, look no further than team Yeah.
Speaker 3: Can I have a team chaperone? Be Connor Francamp after
Speaker 3: six Beers.
Speaker 1: Heroin. Connor Frankcamp was a freshman and looked like he
Speaker 1: was thirty four.
Speaker 3: He'd be selling insurance at seventeen.
Speaker 2: Pretty sure, Hey, Connor Frankcamp is eligible.
Speaker 3: I'm not. It's true.
Speaker 2: We did.
Speaker 1: We did recap Connor Frankamp games.
Speaker 2: We did.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm so. I'm my team makes zero sense. I mean,
Speaker 3: we've got an alpha dog, we have a freshman phenom.
Speaker 3: We also have another freshman phenom. This team would lose
Speaker 3: in the round of thirty two to Stanford, just like
Speaker 3: Andrew Wiggins did. But that being said, I'm gonna add
Speaker 3: myself another alpha dog. I'm gonna add guard slash forward
Speaker 3: slash center, not center guard slash forward Christian Brown from
Speaker 3: the twenty.
Speaker 2: You're gonna do it?
Speaker 3: Yep, he's hopping into that. He's hopping in with Andrew
Speaker 3: Wiggins and Frank Mason. This team would punch everyone in
Speaker 3: the face and not at all about it.
Speaker 2: Chris Cam, dang it.
Speaker 1: Cam going for a very classy team with a very
Speaker 1: diverse team. Whereas that's that's a clear focus for Cam.
Speaker 1: A lot, a lot of guys that you'd want your
Speaker 1: daughter to date if you will.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've got yeah, just I give off hard.
Speaker 1: Workers, scratch guys who you cut him open? And a
Speaker 1: Jayhawk comes out?
Speaker 3: Am I right, yeah, Oh sure, that's fine. Is it?
Speaker 3: Do I have the next pick? Or is it going
Speaker 3: back to hey it goes back? Oh my goodness, gracious boys,
Speaker 3: buckle up, buckle up. You won't believe what I'm doing here.
Speaker 3: All right. So this team has talent and has heart.
Speaker 3: It has people that you probably wouldn't want your daughter around.
Speaker 3: But I'm gonna add a solid piece to the mantle.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna add twenty seventeen Land and Lucas to captain
Speaker 3: the five because I want a glue guy. I want
Speaker 3: a glue guy to get rebounds and get his shots
Speaker 3: blocked by Oregon in the elite.
Speaker 1: Hold on what's this?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: Bill sells at the door and he says, it's kJ Adams. Obviously,
Speaker 1: if you need a glue guy. He wants to know
Speaker 1: what what you're thinking here.
Speaker 3: Cam Uh, I'm thinking that kJ is not that good. Okay,
Speaker 3: all right, all right, God he doesn't listen.
Speaker 1: I wanted to do something here, and I'm gonna I
Speaker 1: think Landon is going to This feels like one of
Speaker 1: those pieces where I want two guys. I want to
Speaker 1: use two guys together, but I think if I take
Speaker 1: the first one, it will make land and take the other.
Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna try it. I'm gonna try it
Speaker 1: because Landon has already taken a complimentary piece here. I
Speaker 1: am going to snag twenty twenty Udoka as a bouquet
Speaker 1: to be my starting five man. Oh and I think
Speaker 1: you know what exactly I want to pair him with
Speaker 1: as a sixth man. And I'm gonna assume that because
Speaker 1: you already took Dietrich, you're not gonna do it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it probably won't. I probably won't.
Speaker 1: Can we can we change this? Can we add a
Speaker 1: seventh man? Can we have two bench pieces? I feel
Speaker 1: like we need two bench pieces.
Speaker 2: What if we just did a full roster and walk
Speaker 2: Ons on the coach.
Speaker 3: Is anybody drafting Charlie Moore?
Speaker 1: I yea.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Your seventh man can just be a Your seventh man
Speaker 1: can be the class act guy if you will, so,
Speaker 1: then you may.
Speaker 2: Be not doing seventh man. Why were we doing seventh.
Speaker 1: No, we have to I need an extra front court
Speaker 1: and extra backcourt guy.
Speaker 2: Fine, whatever, Fine, that makes enough sense, I'll allow it. Okay, Well,
Speaker 2: I get two picks, then I get to end the
Speaker 2: draft with my seventh man.
Speaker 1: No, we have three spots left.
Speaker 2: Well right, you're right, yeah, and then I get to
Speaker 2: end the draft.
Speaker 1: I get what you're doing. So okay, so the team
Speaker 1: so far, Cam, tell me your tell me your five picks,
Speaker 1: all right, Land, and go ahead and make your fifth pick,
Speaker 1: and then we'll go through the rosters.
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, this is a this is a big decision. Well,
Speaker 2: now that I have two bench spots, I'm gonna go
Speaker 2: back and take twenty twenty five Dickson.
Speaker 1: Freaking darn it. I knew, I knew that was gonna happen.
Speaker 1: That's exactly who I wanted to put in here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know. So I'm gonna ruin your system, and
Speaker 2: I'm gonna play my game, my way and I'm gonna.
Speaker 1: If I had taken Dickinson instead of Dope. Would you
Speaker 1: have taken Dope to pair with de Drick?
Speaker 2: Absolutely?
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, I knew it was and I originally I
Speaker 1: was gonna go with Jeff Witty and Hunter Dickens, and
Speaker 1: then I thought about it, and I thought I could
Speaker 1: maneuver Doke and Dickinson, and I couldn't do it.
Speaker 2: That's fair, that's fair. Okay. Let's recap our five picks here.
Speaker 2: We each have two picks left camp.
Speaker 3: All right, So I have twenty seventeen, Frank Mason twenty
Speaker 3: twenty three, Grade Dick twenty fourteen, Andrew Wiggins twenty twenty two,
Speaker 3: Christian Brown got him for his mom, and then twenty
Speaker 3: seventeen Win.
Speaker 1: Lucas, And then we're going to counter that with twenty
Speaker 1: twenty Devon Dotson, second Team All American, twenty twenty two,
Speaker 1: oh Chaya Baji, First Team All American twenty twenty five,
Speaker 1: Zeke Mayo, one of the three best shooters in the
Speaker 1: cell fair statistically. Twenty seventeen. Josh Jackson, professional tailight kicker
Speaker 1: and biggest NBA draft bust also got a child high allegedly. Yeah,
Speaker 1: twenty twenty Udoka as a Bouquet Big Twelve Player of
Speaker 1: the Year.
Speaker 2: I was said, child, we have twenty eighteen Davante Graham
Speaker 2: which seventeen points and seven assists and went to a
Speaker 2: Final four, and I believe it was Big twelve Player
Speaker 2: of the Year, and I believe in All American twenty
Speaker 2: eighteen Spema Kai Luke, Time Vibes Guy twenty twenty three.
Speaker 2: Jalen Wilson average twenty and eight in his red shirt
Speaker 2: junior year, Hot Mom Yes twenty nineteen Diedrich Lawson averaged
Speaker 2: like nineteen and ten uh and was an absolute force.
Speaker 2: Had one of the most underrated offensive seasons in the
Speaker 2: Bills off Era. And twenty twenty five Hunter Dickinson, who's
Speaker 2: getting double teamed every night and is scoring like seventeen
Speaker 2: and ten despite.
Speaker 1: His no but he sucks.
Speaker 2: That's okay, he sucks.
Speaker 1: Empty stats. People are gonna write you Land and be like,
Speaker 1: why didn't you choose twenty twenty three Zoobie edge of four.
Speaker 1: He's better than Hunter Dickinson.
Speaker 2: Slams micers because he isn't uh and also he plays
Speaker 2: for Saint John's. He's not eligible.
Speaker 1: He is technically eligible but not.
Speaker 2: He is actually eligible. Yes, he is eligible. What do
Speaker 2: you pick?
Speaker 5: Okay, I gotta take another guard and a lot of
Speaker 5: the good like you beating guards the Wigans yer.
Speaker 3: It was Wigans year.
Speaker 1: Okay, so freshman Wayne Seldon is still available.
Speaker 2: Sir as a sophomore junior Wayne Seldon? No?
Speaker 1: Yeah, which which Cam saw in the KFC Young Center once? Yeah?
Speaker 2: There, Man, I really was gonna take Christian Brown. I
Speaker 2: really didn't think you were gonna take Brown. Cam. It's
Speaker 2: a great pick.
Speaker 3: Had to do it for the mom.
Speaker 2: Dude, that's extremely extremely fair. Let's think about this.
Speaker 1: Maybe if I backspace Hunter Dickinson off Landon's team, I
Speaker 1: can he won't notice that I can snipe him for myself.
Speaker 2: What, man, Who's who's there's there's one name that's coming
Speaker 2: to mind. Who is good? Is is quite good?
Speaker 1: I know exactly who I want for the last two picks.
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna be so irritated if one of you
Speaker 1: takes this. M I have it all mapped out and everything.
Speaker 2: I think I have to take. I'm really try to
Speaker 2: rack my brain to make sure I'm not forgetting like
Speaker 2: an obviously more interesting piece than this. I don't think
Speaker 2: that I am. So I'm gonna take twenty eighteen Malik
Speaker 2: Newman and.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's that's a good piece Landon. So your
Speaker 1: roster is the back court of this is twenty eighteen.
Speaker 2: Yesh was not on purpose. I didn't go out and
Speaker 2: intend to get all of twenty eighteen. I mean, I
Speaker 2: obviously wanted Graham, and I'm not mad at Feet, but
Speaker 2: I'm not mad that it ended up this way. That's
Speaker 2: for sure.
Speaker 1: I was gonna take Feet whenever you didn't or whenever
Speaker 1: if you didn't, So I was right there waiting.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: So the next piece I need is I need to
Speaker 1: get another back court or another front court piece. And
Speaker 1: I have a walking bucket and one of the best
Speaker 1: defensive centers in the history of the Big twelve and
Speaker 1: as a bouquet. But this team, I think with Dotson,
Speaker 1: Abaji and Mayo on the on the back court, with
Speaker 1: Josh Jackson as the fore man, I think this team
Speaker 1: is designed to go fast. So I need to take
Speaker 1: a big that can play fast and get me offense.
Speaker 1: So because of that, I'm gonna go with one of
Speaker 1: the most slept on pieces to be a six man,
Speaker 1: and that is twenty sixteen. Perry Ellis one of the
Speaker 1: best offensive players in the self era. He can play
Speaker 1: the five. I could put I could put him at
Speaker 1: the four next to Doke if I wanted to. I
Speaker 1: think that they would both play really well next to
Speaker 1: each other. Have a have a guy come off the
Speaker 1: bench that was a seventeen points a game, second team
Speaker 1: All American. I'll take it.
Speaker 2: That's a good one, very good one.
Speaker 3: Man. I'm running out of ideas now, just kidding. That
Speaker 3: had no impact on my choice. I forgot Perry Ellis
Speaker 3: was alive. I do have him on Xbox as a
Speaker 3: friend on Xbox. I wish you'd forgot. I wish he'd
Speaker 3: joined my parties.
Speaker 1: I don't know how you forgot he's alive. He's been
Speaker 1: alive since the Titanic sank.
Speaker 3: He has been drinking pine sal lemonade. I will take
Speaker 3: six man, you know what, for fun? This team makes
Speaker 3: no sense. I will take freshman Joelle Embiid.
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, that's it. He was a due Domino take Yeah.
Speaker 1: I wondered if he would even be chosen here. I
Speaker 1: He and twenty nine eighteen la Gerald Vic were the
Speaker 1: two guys that I were like, they couldn't really be
Speaker 1: good on these teams if someone takes them.
Speaker 3: Oh, it's and I have the last pick here for me? Yep,
Speaker 3: what is the last what's the last one? Is this
Speaker 3: like a stupid pick or is.
Speaker 1: This it can be if you want. I have a
Speaker 1: very specific peace in mind that I need.
Speaker 3: I need.
Speaker 2: I know, I'm very confident. I think I know who
Speaker 2: Ryan's taking.
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna you know what, I'm gonna make Bill
Speaker 3: Soff get a raging hard on. I'm gonna take twenty
Speaker 3: sixteen Jamari trailer. Why not?
Speaker 2: Whoa that did not see that?
Speaker 1: That's a choice. That's that's a choice.
Speaker 3: The guy can. Yeah, I need the guy that can
Speaker 3: go in there, dive on the floor and then wink
Speaker 3: at Bill Soff's wife and Bill's I asked, my boy.
Speaker 1: Hey, kJ is there too? kJ is there too? Okay?
Speaker 2: Fran Mason is setting the minutes record on Cam's team.
Speaker 3: Yeah, why is over Andrew Wiggins.
Speaker 1: That is exactly happening. Bill is benching Andrew Wiggins for
Speaker 1: not diving on the floor enough and letting Jamari Traylor
Speaker 1: play the three. And we're gonna be like, whoa, why
Speaker 1: why are you doing? Bill? Okay, so Landon. You were
Speaker 1: confident you knew who I was gonna take. Give me
Speaker 1: the position you.
Speaker 2: Think I'm gonna take here, point guard.
Speaker 1: Okay, tell me who you think I'm taking.
Speaker 2: I think you're taking a little Remy in the evening.
Speaker 1: You know me as well as my spouse does, and
Speaker 1: that's a little bit scary for being honest. Yes, absolutely,
Speaker 1: I need a point guard to come off the bench.
Speaker 1: I need someone who can back up Devon Dotson and
Speaker 1: also play with him. Remy and Devon play kind of
Speaker 1: similar styles, but Remy's a better shooter. He can play
Speaker 1: if Devon gets in foul trouble. And I feel like
Speaker 1: I have a really good defensive team here. Doake and
Speaker 1: Josh Jackson. They got the low block. Devon Dotson's a
Speaker 1: very good point guard, so are on the defensive end.
Speaker 1: So I'll put Remy in there, who wasn't known for
Speaker 1: his defense, but two thousand point score the ultimate why card.
Speaker 1: I definitely like him better than Jamari Traylor. But you know, hey,
Speaker 1: to each their own, uh and uh and yeah, I'll
Speaker 1: have Remy rounding out this. My team, by the way,
Speaker 1: has a couple guys on here that won a national
Speaker 1: championship can never go wrong with that experience.
Speaker 2: So I wondered, there there is there is a guy
Speaker 2: who I'm probably gonna have to take here.
Speaker 1: Oh no, not quite Ryan Close somebody who's type this
Speaker 1: year is the one Harris He's not gonna take. I
Speaker 1: have to take mar You're serious.
Speaker 2: I was taking twenty twenty one Marcus Garrett, my least
Speaker 2: favorite player in the history of the program, because.
Speaker 1: This version here, that's the National defensive Player of the year.
Speaker 2: Sure, I'll take twenty twenty Garrett. That's fine.
Speaker 1: Twenty one Garrett scored more.
Speaker 2: Because so here's my logic on this. He's an incredible defender.
Speaker 2: I am a little bit defensively thin. Also, he can
Speaker 2: play an off ball for pretty well, and he can
Speaker 2: defend all five positions, and he can play point guard competently.
Speaker 2: And if he can play point guard with like Malik
Speaker 2: Newman's feed, Jalen Wilson and Dedrich Lawson as opposed to
Speaker 2: like Junior David McCormick and and a latch of like
Speaker 2: Chibby versions of oach And and Jalen Wilson and Christian Brown,
Speaker 2: I think he would do just fine there. So I
Speaker 2: think he's he's a great utility piece. He's like a
Speaker 2: utility infielder. You know, he might not do anything outstandingly well,
Speaker 2: but he's gonna do every job pretty well, and he's
Speaker 2: kind of an invaluable piece. He can fill a lot
Speaker 2: of spots, he can do a lot of do a
Speaker 2: lot of things.
Speaker 1: Landon's team is going to be very beloved by Kay
Speaker 1: Twitter until Hunter Dickinson goes in the game. Cam has
Speaker 1: the ultimate wild card with a lot of daughter Nash
Speaker 1: and so here I threw this whole thing off. I
Speaker 1: think Landon was probably expecting me to take Davonte second.
Speaker 1: And I think in my book seventeen Mason, eighteen gram
Speaker 1: and twenty Dotson. Dotson's the third best of those three.
Speaker 1: But the gap between one, two and three, I think
Speaker 1: is smaller than the best two or three shooting seasons
Speaker 1: they've had. And Ochi's twenty two season is still slept
Speaker 1: on and is so so so good and always he's
Speaker 1: He's one of the only guys on that list that,
Speaker 1: while being a forty percent shooter, was also that good
Speaker 1: at the rim and also a very competent defender. That's
Speaker 1: why I thought that guy was worth being the first
Speaker 1: non point guard being taken here, So one more time
Speaker 1: from beginning in here, I'm going with twenty twenty Dotson
Speaker 1: running the show, twenty two a bogie and twenty five
Speaker 1: male on the wings, seventeen Josh Jackson and sixteen Pariellis
Speaker 1: alternating minutes at the four, senior doke at the five,
Speaker 1: and then I have national champion Remy Martin coming off
Speaker 1: the bench to play backcourt, point guard, reserve minutes. Who's
Speaker 1: beaten at squad? Your joke's on me. It's twelve seed
Speaker 1: high point. Whenever they get to the sweet sixteen, I
Speaker 1: know how that goes. But that team's at least winning
Speaker 1: a Big twelve title.
Speaker 2: That team is good. That team is good. Shockingly, all
Speaker 2: these teams are good. Rounding out my full squad here,
Speaker 2: we got twenty eighteen Devonte Graham. We have twenty eighteen
Speaker 2: Malik Newman, a guy who almost single handlely sent Keynes
Speaker 2: to a Final four. Twenty eighteen se Mka Leak. We
Speaker 2: have a final four backcourt. We saw that work incredibly well.
Speaker 2: Once we're gonna see it will work well again. Twenty
Speaker 2: twenty three Jalen Wilson. He once again average twenty and eight.
Speaker 2: He was brilliant. Twenty nineteen Ddrich Lawson a very slept
Speaker 2: on offensive season, but he was a walking double double
Speaker 2: who could score at all three levels. Twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2: Hundred Dickinson, a guy that is averaging seventeen and ten
Speaker 2: as like one of the only consistent offensive pieces on
Speaker 2: his team. Another walking double double who can occasionally pop
Speaker 2: out hit the three. Yeah. Does he have defensive issues, sure,
Speaker 2: but that's why we have twenty twenty Marcus Garrett to
Speaker 2: cover up all those defensive issues. National Defender of the Year.
Speaker 2: He can play a lot of positions, just not shooting guard,
Speaker 2: but he can do pretty much everything else. He's gonna
Speaker 2: defend the crap out of basketball.
Speaker 3: You guys have really good teams. My team doesn't make
Speaker 3: any sense, but here it is.
Speaker 1: Twenty seventeen.
Speaker 3: It did it first, and then I just got really sidetracked.
Speaker 3: I was like, I'm gonna make it super athletic twenty seventeen.
Speaker 3: Frank Mason running the point twenty twenty three. Grady dick
Speaker 3: shooting high volume of threes. Twenty fourteen. Andrew Wiggins. Not
Speaker 3: sure how he fits with those two, but he's there.
Speaker 3: Twenty twenty two. Christian Brown is in there, his mom's
Speaker 3: in the stands. A lot of tystosterone flowing. And in
Speaker 3: the boys here twenty seventeen, Land and Lucas rounding out
Speaker 3: the show. Somehow, Joelle Embiide is backing up Land and Lucas.
Speaker 3: Still unsure how that one played out. And then I
Speaker 3: decided to put Jamari Trailer or floor Burns just for
Speaker 3: the hell of it and to make Bill self happy,
Speaker 3: because that's what he's gonna be doing in the retirement home.
Speaker 3: He's gonna be crafting out parlays and he's gonna be
Speaker 3: making teams that are centered around Jamari Trailer and Dwan
Speaker 3: Harris and kJ Adams, and he'll be trying to figure
Speaker 3: out how that would work.
Speaker 1: This is a good exercise, Land, and I need you
Speaker 1: to come up with another one that we can do
Speaker 1: after Kavs gets eliminated in a week and we need
Speaker 1: something to pass the time. Okay, So absolutely, today we're
Speaker 1: going to recap the second round of the NCAA Tournament
Speaker 1: with the Jayhawks and not playing. So we're going to
Speaker 1: pick which Kansas basketball players we think we're the best
Speaker 1: people to hang around.
Speaker 3: The next.
Speaker 1: Cam's entire team is Mitch lightfoot sphema kay look and
Speaker 1: uh and who else? Who else would be on Cam's daughter?
Speaker 1: Dat team? We got we got point guard Tyrol Red,
Speaker 1: he's running the show. We got any morning Star.
Speaker 3: My team is just called the Domestic Abuse Superstars Team
Speaker 3: Captain Chris Pearrece.
Speaker 1: And on that note, this has been the Inside the
Speaker 1: Paint podcast. We will be coming up with another show
Speaker 1: here where we'll be recapping brackets. If you're like, what

Speaker 3: like to take into World War Three?

Speaker 1: eligible for the war draft. When Cam and I are done,

Speaker 1: Backwards like probably is a better shot whenever he's totally drunk.
Speaker 1: Why Rodney Terry's glasses do you think he'd like Do
Speaker 1: you think he thinks he looks smart with his glasses?
Speaker 2: You think he looks in the mirror with.
Speaker 1: Him and he's like this, this is a look you know, well,
Speaker 1: yes he does look stupid. But what do you think
Speaker 1: he thinks he.
Speaker 3: Thinks he's the best man on the planet.

Speaker 1: he looks in the mirror, He's like, I look like
Speaker 1: a man who's gonna coach my team to a first
Speaker 1: round tournament win. And he probably won't. They might not
Speaker 1: even get to the first round. No, why is I'm
Speaker 1: looking at the women's bracket for the first time? Why
Speaker 1: is Yukon a two seed?
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: How do they come up with lit teams?
Speaker 1: How do they come up with four teams that are
Speaker 1: more deserving of this, including like half of them Yukon beat.
Speaker 2: I think it's really fun that you know this much
Speaker 2: about Yukon.
Speaker 1: I was gonna Sayers place because yep, yep, yes this

Speaker 3: I'm Cam and I'm going to a foxhold of Rodney Terry.
Speaker 1: Yukon opens up as a forty six point favorite against
Speaker 1: fifteen seed Arkansas State. That feels like something Cam would
Speaker 1: bet on. Come on, Yukon. They only won by thirty nine,
Speaker 1: and I bet them to win.
Speaker 3: By Do you guys think Do you guys think if
Speaker 3: Rodney Terry saw a landmine he would purposely step on
Speaker 3: it to see if it's explosive? I don't know.
