WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:02.480
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, John. It is eight oh four. In fact,

2
00:00:02.480 --> 00:00:05.240
<v Speaker 1>now it's eight oh five. It was aight o four

3
00:00:05.240 --> 00:00:07.639
<v Speaker 1>when I said it, but there's a slight delay in

4
00:00:07.719 --> 00:00:09.279
<v Speaker 1>live radio. I think a lot of you know that,

5
00:00:09.320 --> 00:00:11.119
<v Speaker 1>and there's actually a bigger delay of your streaming, so

6
00:00:11.119 --> 00:00:11.919
<v Speaker 1>I would have been a liar.

7
00:00:12.519 --> 00:00:14.160
<v Speaker 2>It's eight o five. It is Kentucky.

8
00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:16.399
<v Speaker 1>Its morning news here our news radio eight forty whas

9
00:00:16.480 --> 00:00:18.480
<v Speaker 1>Nick coffee with you. We're gonna be joined coming up

10
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:23.120
<v Speaker 1>by Roory O'Neal in roughly twenty five minutes. We'll get

11
00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:25.640
<v Speaker 1>the latest as it seems as if things are going

12
00:00:25.719 --> 00:00:28.000
<v Speaker 1>to be slowing down, which is which is what we want,

13
00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:33.280
<v Speaker 1>because the ceasefire is finally in full effect, after it

14
00:00:33.399 --> 00:00:37.960
<v Speaker 1>seemed laid into Monday evening into Tuesday morning that we

15
00:00:38.079 --> 00:00:41.159
<v Speaker 1>were heading in that direction, and I guess maybe we were,

16
00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:44.520
<v Speaker 1>but there were some roadblocks along the way, if you will, right,

17
00:00:44.560 --> 00:00:48.960
<v Speaker 1>you had some final jabs from both sides. But it

18
00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:52.880
<v Speaker 1>now sounds as if we fully have ceasefire, and the

19
00:00:54.039 --> 00:00:57.759
<v Speaker 1>situation between Israel and Iran, I'm sure is still contentious,

20
00:00:57.799 --> 00:01:00.640
<v Speaker 1>and I doubt that they're making a rangements to get

21
00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:05.840
<v Speaker 1>together and you enjoy each other's company, But the development

22
00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:09.840
<v Speaker 1>in the last I guess seventy two hours is a

23
00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:13.319
<v Speaker 1>positive one. I don't think that's I don't think that's

24
00:01:13.719 --> 00:01:17.640
<v Speaker 1>out of line at all. And I don't have a

25
00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:20.079
<v Speaker 1>problem admitting this. Maybe I shouldn't, but when it comes

26
00:01:20.159 --> 00:01:23.480
<v Speaker 1>to the overall coverage of this, I think you can

27
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:26.239
<v Speaker 1>be somebody that doesn't I shouldn't say you don't care,

28
00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:28.079
<v Speaker 1>but I'm sure there's people that don't care about the

29
00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:32.120
<v Speaker 1>war between Israel and Iran, and the only care if

30
00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:35.400
<v Speaker 1>the United States is involvement is going to impact them.

31
00:01:35.599 --> 00:01:39.079
<v Speaker 1>And I think a lot of people, understandably so would

32
00:01:39.159 --> 00:01:41.840
<v Speaker 1>view this big piece of news that of course is

33
00:01:41.879 --> 00:01:44.159
<v Speaker 1>the most talked about thing in the world as something

34
00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:46.879
<v Speaker 1>that they don't really have any control over. So they're

35
00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:51.000
<v Speaker 1>going to live their life and just not give a

36
00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:54.120
<v Speaker 1>whole lot of time and resources to it because they

37
00:01:54.120 --> 00:01:56.680
<v Speaker 1>can't control it. So I have no problem admitting that.

38
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:01.840
<v Speaker 1>And you'd ask me as far as the amount of

39
00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:05.879
<v Speaker 1>fatalities casualties, if you will, with the back and forth

40
00:02:05.920 --> 00:02:09.400
<v Speaker 1>missile attacks from Israel and Iran, I wouldn't have even

41
00:02:09.439 --> 00:02:11.719
<v Speaker 1>known where to start as far as guessing, but I

42
00:02:11.759 --> 00:02:14.080
<v Speaker 1>would have guessed a lot more than what actually took place.

43
00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:16.000
<v Speaker 1>And it's not to act as if well, it's not

44
00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:17.840
<v Speaker 1>a big deal. Only a handful of people died. I mean,

45
00:02:17.879 --> 00:02:23.960
<v Speaker 1>anybody dying is tragic thing, especially if you know it's

46
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:28.960
<v Speaker 1>because of a conflict that you know, the many in

47
00:02:29.240 --> 00:02:32.960
<v Speaker 1>these countries maybe don't agree with. But the overall number

48
00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:38.120
<v Speaker 1>here this was as of as of yesterday, that Israel

49
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:42.280
<v Speaker 1>reported four deaths from Iranian missile attacks and Iran reported

50
00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:47.840
<v Speaker 1>nine from the Israeli strikes. So maybe I'm wrong, Maybe

51
00:02:47.919 --> 00:02:50.520
<v Speaker 1>maybe many would have guessed a lot lower than that,

52
00:02:50.599 --> 00:02:53.520
<v Speaker 1>but that is the total numbers. So it now sounds

53
00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:55.759
<v Speaker 1>as if there's I mean, again, this is a big

54
00:02:56.560 --> 00:02:59.919
<v Speaker 1>There was a scenario where this could have played out

55
00:03:00.759 --> 00:03:04.879
<v Speaker 1>for a lot longer than it actually did. And as

56
00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:06.919
<v Speaker 1>I said Monday, we're all guessing as far as where

57
00:03:06.960 --> 00:03:09.159
<v Speaker 1>this goes. Anybody that tried to tell you on Saturday

58
00:03:09.840 --> 00:03:13.199
<v Speaker 1>exactly what would play out, either good or bad, either

59
00:03:13.479 --> 00:03:17.039
<v Speaker 1>Democrat or Republican or somebody maybe even take away the

60
00:03:17.080 --> 00:03:19.520
<v Speaker 1>political affiliation. You just consider if you were against it

61
00:03:19.639 --> 00:03:22.479
<v Speaker 1>or supporting it. You just didn't know. We were all guessing.

62
00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:24.639
<v Speaker 1>But it would not have been a surprise if this

63
00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:27.680
<v Speaker 1>lasted a lot longer than it actually did, so that

64
00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:31.719
<v Speaker 1>is encouraging. But again we'll talk to Rory O'Neil about

65
00:03:31.719 --> 00:03:35.599
<v Speaker 1>that coming up here in about twenty minutes or so.

66
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:40.479
<v Speaker 1>So yesterday on with Terry Minors, Tom Jurich joined Terry

67
00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:43.439
<v Speaker 1>to discuss the big event coming up on Saturday morning

68
00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:45.560
<v Speaker 1>where he will be honored and U of L and

69
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:48.280
<v Speaker 1>the city have decided to name part of Floyd Street

70
00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:53.680
<v Speaker 1>after Tom Jurich, which of course is certainly an honor

71
00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:56.639
<v Speaker 1>that he is worthy of. But he came on to

72
00:03:56.680 --> 00:03:58.840
<v Speaker 1>talk about it yesterday with Terry, and one of the

73
00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:01.800
<v Speaker 1>things he did discuss, other than just him being humbled

74
00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:05.719
<v Speaker 1>by this gesture, but just the landscape of college athletics,

75
00:04:05.719 --> 00:04:08.080
<v Speaker 1>because man, it has changed a lot just in the

76
00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:12.560
<v Speaker 1>last three four years, but it's changed. It's a different

77
00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:16.079
<v Speaker 1>it's a different world. And that doesn't even really put

78
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:18.120
<v Speaker 1>it into full com I mean it's to say that

79
00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:20.879
<v Speaker 1>it's a different role would actually be a massive understatement

80
00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:23.480
<v Speaker 1>as far as the landscape of college athletics now and

81
00:04:23.519 --> 00:04:26.879
<v Speaker 1>what it was when Tom Jurich was was the athletic director.

82
00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:29.079
<v Speaker 1>He's been going from U of L since twenty seventeen

83
00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:32.040
<v Speaker 1>but here are his comments on the current current landscape

84
00:04:32.079 --> 00:04:32.279
<v Speaker 1>of it.

85
00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:35.360
<v Speaker 3>I think they're going to be fine. I think everybody's

86
00:04:35.399 --> 00:04:37.399
<v Speaker 3>got to kind of feel their way through this whole thing.

87
00:04:37.839 --> 00:04:40.920
<v Speaker 3>It's different. It's hard to call it college sports anymore.

88
00:04:41.279 --> 00:04:43.839
<v Speaker 3>You know, it's a really it's a professional leagues. And

89
00:04:43.879 --> 00:04:45.199
<v Speaker 3>then they're going to have to treat it that way

90
00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:46.160
<v Speaker 3>because it's a business.

91
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:50.959
<v Speaker 1>It is a business, and Tom Jurich effectively ran U

92
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:54.600
<v Speaker 1>of L athletics like it was a pro sports franchise

93
00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:58.360
<v Speaker 1>to an extent as far as just the the corporate sponsorships,

94
00:04:58.399 --> 00:05:00.279
<v Speaker 1>and I mean Tom did a lot of things things

95
00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:03.199
<v Speaker 1>really really well. That that again, as I've mentioned many

96
00:05:03.240 --> 00:05:07.040
<v Speaker 1>times since this news was shared last week by Mayor Greenberg,

97
00:05:07.720 --> 00:05:10.800
<v Speaker 1>you know his impact on you Havel athletics. It's it's

98
00:05:10.839 --> 00:05:13.879
<v Speaker 1>as he's been as impactful as any individual in the

99
00:05:13.920 --> 00:05:16.160
<v Speaker 1>history of the university when it comes to athletics, just

100
00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:20.920
<v Speaker 1>because of the foundation that was established. So you know,

101
00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:23.879
<v Speaker 1>with that, he did it in a different way. And

102
00:05:25.079 --> 00:05:27.160
<v Speaker 1>I think in the current world and I'm not saying

103
00:05:27.439 --> 00:05:30.759
<v Speaker 1>now as we sit here on June twenty fifth of

104
00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:32.600
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty five, I mean Tom's been retired for quite

105
00:05:32.639 --> 00:05:34.480
<v Speaker 1>some time. I'm assuming if he wanted to pursue work,

106
00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:35.839
<v Speaker 1>he could have done it. But I do think the

107
00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:38.959
<v Speaker 1>way in which he did things would have really translated

108
00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:42.759
<v Speaker 1>well in this new in this new era, things that

109
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:48.120
<v Speaker 1>are really really important fan engagement, you know, raising money,

110
00:05:48.199 --> 00:05:51.639
<v Speaker 1>raising funds, knowing that you got to you know, you

111
00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:53.319
<v Speaker 1>got to compete at a high, high level, and you

112
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:57.040
<v Speaker 1>got to sustain that success. I mean that those are

113
00:05:57.079 --> 00:05:58.879
<v Speaker 1>things that are again, are really important now. And that's

114
00:05:59.600 --> 00:06:01.000
<v Speaker 1>those are those are some of the many things he

115
00:06:01.040 --> 00:06:02.240
<v Speaker 1>was really really good at.

116
00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:02.480
<v Speaker 4>All.

117
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:05.240
<v Speaker 1>Right, let's get an update on traffickan weather right here

118
00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:10.639
<v Speaker 1>on news radio eight forty whas eight sixteen here Kentucky

119
00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:15.160
<v Speaker 1>and his morning news on news radio eight forty whas. So,

120
00:06:15.240 --> 00:06:19.560
<v Speaker 1>the jury was selected yesterday for the Crystal Rogers case.

121
00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:24.920
<v Speaker 1>And it's not at all surprised that many of the

122
00:06:25.920 --> 00:06:30.680
<v Speaker 1>potential jurors were having to come clean. And I say

123
00:06:30.680 --> 00:06:32.319
<v Speaker 1>come clean, like they had to admit something that was

124
00:06:32.360 --> 00:06:36.319
<v Speaker 1>a big secret. But yeah, one hundred potential jurors had

125
00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:40.360
<v Speaker 1>knowledge of this case because of the news coverage, true

126
00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:44.600
<v Speaker 1>crime podcast documentaries, or just hearing about it every day.

127
00:06:45.519 --> 00:06:48.439
<v Speaker 1>So that of course led to the jury selection being

128
00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:51.360
<v Speaker 1>a little different than I would say most cases, but

129
00:06:51.879 --> 00:06:54.600
<v Speaker 1>they did end up getting a jury in place, and

130
00:06:55.160 --> 00:06:59.000
<v Speaker 1>this trial will be covered, I think, nationally in a

131
00:06:59.040 --> 00:07:02.879
<v Speaker 1>way that you rarely see a story from Kentucky. I mean,

132
00:07:02.920 --> 00:07:05.240
<v Speaker 1>it's happened. Obviously, the Breonna Taylor stuff got a lot

133
00:07:05.240 --> 00:07:08.160
<v Speaker 1>of national attention, and there have been some unfortunate things

134
00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:10.160
<v Speaker 1>that have taken place that that falls in that true

135
00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:13.639
<v Speaker 1>crime genre that is super popular in society. There to

136
00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:17.959
<v Speaker 1>where these stories end up featured, not just with national

137
00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:21.839
<v Speaker 1>news coverage but just different documentaries, podcasts, things like that.

138
00:07:22.079 --> 00:07:25.519
<v Speaker 1>So I think with this trial taking place in Bowling

139
00:07:25.519 --> 00:07:29.199
<v Speaker 1>Green in Warren County, you'll see not just national news

140
00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:33.120
<v Speaker 1>coverage covering it live, but production crews there to to

141
00:07:33.480 --> 00:07:36.240
<v Speaker 1>once again do some type of a special about this.

142
00:07:36.279 --> 00:07:39.600
<v Speaker 1>Because again that's just that's how That's one, it's a

143
00:07:39.639 --> 00:07:42.319
<v Speaker 1>super popular genre, but also it's this is this this

144
00:07:42.399 --> 00:07:44.560
<v Speaker 1>story is interesting to a lot of people because ten

145
00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:47.839
<v Speaker 1>years have now passed and you also have the the

146
00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:49.720
<v Speaker 1>death of her father that that a lot of people

147
00:07:49.800 --> 00:07:52.199
<v Speaker 1>assume is clearly related to the disappearance of her. And

148
00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:56.000
<v Speaker 1>then some think that the the murder of the the

149
00:07:56.040 --> 00:08:00.439
<v Speaker 1>office the Officer Ellis who was killed years I mean don't.

150
00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:02.600
<v Speaker 1>I won't claim to know all the answers. In fact,

151
00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:04.160
<v Speaker 1>I know nothing other than what you just see and

152
00:08:04.959 --> 00:08:07.000
<v Speaker 1>read and hear from all the coverage of those that

153
00:08:08.360 --> 00:08:10.680
<v Speaker 1>you know are taken advantage of the interest in this story.

154
00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:12.839
<v Speaker 1>But I mean, it wouldn't shock me if we ever

155
00:08:12.879 --> 00:08:14.399
<v Speaker 1>do get to the point and find out that all

156
00:08:14.399 --> 00:08:18.040
<v Speaker 1>of this is somehow related. But you have an Oxygen

157
00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:20.879
<v Speaker 1>special that was the disappearance of Crystal Rogers that was

158
00:08:20.920 --> 00:08:24.639
<v Speaker 1>really popular that took place in twenty eighteen. HLN network

159
00:08:24.680 --> 00:08:26.959
<v Speaker 1>did something called Bourbon Town Mystery, and I think it

160
00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:30.920
<v Speaker 1>featured both of those specific stories, not only the Chrystal

161
00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:36.759
<v Speaker 1>Rogers disappearance but also the murder of Jason Ellis. You know,

162
00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:40.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm looking at others see other specific networks that covered

163
00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:43.399
<v Speaker 1>this to this extent. I mean, still a mystery is

164
00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:45.559
<v Speaker 1>what they called it. It was an investigation Discovery that

165
00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:48.360
<v Speaker 1>was a special about the Crystal Rogers case that came

166
00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:52.320
<v Speaker 1>out in twenty twenty and then also twenty twenty Dateline

167
00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:56.840
<v Speaker 1>NBC they did specials on it. So this will be

168
00:08:57.120 --> 00:09:01.600
<v Speaker 1>probably one of the most covered trials coming from this

169
00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:04.440
<v Speaker 1>state on a national level, not only with again news coverage,

170
00:09:04.440 --> 00:09:07.639
<v Speaker 1>but also with interest just from people who really, I

171
00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:11.080
<v Speaker 1>mean again, I'm somebody that is at least a very

172
00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:13.240
<v Speaker 1>small factor in this. But true crime is such a

173
00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:16.120
<v Speaker 1>popular and dominant genre right now and has been for

174
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:17.879
<v Speaker 1>a long time. I don't really see it changing to

175
00:09:17.879 --> 00:09:21.519
<v Speaker 1>where this being a you know, you now actually have

176
00:09:21.639 --> 00:09:25.480
<v Speaker 1>a trial here and you're going to see if, in

177
00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:29.840
<v Speaker 1>fact the suspect her ex boyfriend, Brooks Howck, who most

178
00:09:29.840 --> 00:09:32.919
<v Speaker 1>assume is guilty of this. I shouldn't say that I

179
00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:34.360
<v Speaker 1>don't know that for certain, but I know a lot

180
00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:37.120
<v Speaker 1>of people do believe that he's guilty. And we'll see

181
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:40.039
<v Speaker 1>how this plays out. But no doubt a lot of

182
00:09:40.080 --> 00:09:42.559
<v Speaker 1>coverage in Bowling Green, and I know I'm going to

183
00:09:42.600 --> 00:09:44.799
<v Speaker 1>be following along, and I'm sure I'm not alone. All Right,

184
00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:47.039
<v Speaker 1>let's get an update on sports with Scott Fitzgerald coming

185
00:09:47.120 --> 00:09:49.440
<v Speaker 1>up here in about five minutes. Also, Roryo and Neil

186
00:09:49.480 --> 00:09:51.399
<v Speaker 1>of NBC News going to join us at eight thirty

187
00:09:51.480 --> 00:09:55.440
<v Speaker 1>right here on News Radio eight forty. Whas we've got

188
00:09:55.440 --> 00:09:57.320
<v Speaker 1>about fifteen minutes left here before we hand it off

189
00:09:57.360 --> 00:10:00.000
<v Speaker 1>to Tony and why it is Kentucky is Morning News

190
00:10:00.879 --> 00:10:05.200
<v Speaker 1>on News Radio eight forty whas so Tony Vineddi is

191
00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:09.000
<v Speaker 1>with us now and this state Bill one eighty one

192
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:14.039
<v Speaker 1>that is now in place in Jefferson County is I

193
00:10:14.080 --> 00:10:16.320
<v Speaker 1>think a bigger deal than a lot of people realize,

194
00:10:16.360 --> 00:10:18.840
<v Speaker 1>just because there's things that just become very that became

195
00:10:19.000 --> 00:10:21.240
<v Speaker 1>very normal over the years when you were a teacher

196
00:10:21.879 --> 00:10:25.200
<v Speaker 1>a coach that now you it's a big, big no no.

197
00:10:25.320 --> 00:10:28.080
<v Speaker 1>So what this does. The Senate bill won anyone, I

198
00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:30.639
<v Speaker 1>should say. It is now in effect, and it restricts

199
00:10:30.639 --> 00:10:34.639
<v Speaker 1>how public school employees, volunteers, coaches can can communicate with students.

200
00:10:34.679 --> 00:10:38.080
<v Speaker 1>So no texting, social media, no third party app communications,

201
00:10:38.919 --> 00:10:43.120
<v Speaker 1>and everything now has to be done through traceable communication methods.

202
00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:45.200
<v Speaker 1>And sounds like the school systems are putting their own

203
00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:47.639
<v Speaker 1>version of whatever that platform is going to be. But

204
00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:51.519
<v Speaker 1>JCPS staff, as of until August first, they must use

205
00:10:51.559 --> 00:10:55.559
<v Speaker 1>only JCPS email or communicate with parents directly. But starting

206
00:10:55.600 --> 00:10:58.399
<v Speaker 1>August first and on, j CPS will have their adopted

207
00:10:58.440 --> 00:11:02.759
<v Speaker 1>standardized traceable canmunications. Everybody within the state has until August

208
00:11:02.799 --> 00:11:06.080
<v Speaker 1>fifteenth to comply with this new law. So obviously there's

209
00:11:06.120 --> 00:11:08.039
<v Speaker 1>a reason this is happening. Is because there's way too

210
00:11:08.080 --> 00:11:11.279
<v Speaker 1>many people within the school system. Rather it be coaches, teachers,

211
00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:14.360
<v Speaker 1>maybe both volunteers who coach but don't work at the

212
00:11:14.360 --> 00:11:17.279
<v Speaker 1>school that have crossed the line that you simply cannot cross,

213
00:11:17.320 --> 00:11:19.039
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of them have ended up going to

214
00:11:19.080 --> 00:11:22.519
<v Speaker 1>prison for that. But now, if the example I gave

215
00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:24.559
<v Speaker 1>earlier Tony was if you had a great game and

216
00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:26.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm your coach, I can't tweet out that you had

217
00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:29.919
<v Speaker 1>a great game and tag you on Twitter and maybe

218
00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:32.399
<v Speaker 1>you know have coaches see that you had a good game.

219
00:11:33.080 --> 00:11:37.200
<v Speaker 1>I think the notion that you can't text a player

220
00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:40.559
<v Speaker 1>directly is just going to be a bit Again, it's

221
00:11:40.600 --> 00:11:42.080
<v Speaker 1>just athletics. That's the only way I'm looking at it.

222
00:11:42.080 --> 00:11:43.759
<v Speaker 1>When I think of school, I think of athletics. That's

223
00:11:43.759 --> 00:11:45.440
<v Speaker 1>just that was a big part of my of high

224
00:11:45.480 --> 00:11:47.399
<v Speaker 1>school for me. But like a coach, not being able

225
00:11:47.399 --> 00:11:50.159
<v Speaker 1>to communicate with a standard text message, hey I'll meet

226
00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:53.039
<v Speaker 1>you at the gym for a workout, or hey tell

227
00:11:53.039 --> 00:11:55.639
<v Speaker 1>your teammates you're the captain, practice is going to be delayed.

228
00:11:55.879 --> 00:11:57.879
<v Speaker 1>Like you now, not only can't do that, you will

229
00:11:57.879 --> 00:11:59.399
<v Speaker 1>be in major trouble if you do.

230
00:12:00.919 --> 00:12:03.159
<v Speaker 4>It takes a couple of idiots to make to do

231
00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:05.559
<v Speaker 4>this as it's all it is always just to one

232
00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:08.360
<v Speaker 4>or two idiots that that do the wrong thing. You're

233
00:12:08.399 --> 00:12:13.080
<v Speaker 4>you're texting uh inappropriate things, maybe to a female athlete,

234
00:12:13.399 --> 00:12:17.679
<v Speaker 4>or you're texting. They had a problem in grade school

235
00:12:17.799 --> 00:12:22.480
<v Speaker 4>football twenty years ago where there was a coach texting

236
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:25.840
<v Speaker 4>other UH players on the teams of that they play,

237
00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:28.759
<v Speaker 4>and they were going back and forth with smack talk

238
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:31.279
<v Speaker 4>and it was okay. So that's where it can go wrong.

239
00:12:31.639 --> 00:12:35.039
<v Speaker 4>Where it can go right is a special practice. Hey,

240
00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:37.159
<v Speaker 4>you need to work on your on your going to

241
00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:39.600
<v Speaker 4>your left, so you know, text me meet you, meet

242
00:12:39.600 --> 00:12:41.399
<v Speaker 4>me in the gym at at six in the morning, bam.

243
00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:43.559
<v Speaker 4>So then we're there. It's not the whole team, it's

244
00:12:43.639 --> 00:12:46.200
<v Speaker 4>just that guy. Yes, it makes it more difficult, but

245
00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:48.639
<v Speaker 4>this is the world we live in to where litigation

246
00:12:49.000 --> 00:12:51.600
<v Speaker 4>and lawsuits and all that. So now they're just covering

247
00:12:51.639 --> 00:12:54.279
<v Speaker 4>their butts uh trying not to get sued because a

248
00:12:54.320 --> 00:12:56.080
<v Speaker 4>couple of idiots just take it too far.

249
00:12:56.200 --> 00:12:59.279
<v Speaker 2>Because what do we do with sports? Take it too far.

250
00:12:59.559 --> 00:13:04.240
<v Speaker 4>So it sucks and the other slight or the other

251
00:13:04.320 --> 00:13:08.039
<v Speaker 4>problem with this is most people think, how do how

252
00:13:08.080 --> 00:13:11.360
<v Speaker 4>do high school kids get Division one offers. A lot

253
00:13:11.399 --> 00:13:15.919
<v Speaker 4>of it is your coach promoting you and sending you

254
00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:18.759
<v Speaker 4>out right, That's that is a big part of it.

255
00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:21.480
<v Speaker 1>So it's it's a huge part of it. And here's

256
00:13:21.519 --> 00:13:25.080
<v Speaker 1>the thing. Most college most kids who want to play

257
00:13:25.080 --> 00:13:27.320
<v Speaker 1>college athletics that are well aware they're not going to.

258
00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:29.559
<v Speaker 2>Be not just a vision on any any it's way

259
00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:30.240
<v Speaker 2>more important.

260
00:13:30.240 --> 00:13:32.159
<v Speaker 1>And in fact, you won't You won't be able to

261
00:13:32.159 --> 00:13:34.039
<v Speaker 1>get on the radar of an AI program or a

262
00:13:34.120 --> 00:13:36.399
<v Speaker 1>Division II school if your coach is not really.

263
00:13:36.159 --> 00:13:38.519
<v Speaker 2>Putting at work to do that and advocating you for you.

264
00:13:39.799 --> 00:13:42.120
<v Speaker 4>Going back to nineteen eighty three, All the Right Moves

265
00:13:42.120 --> 00:13:45.559
<v Speaker 4>with Tom Cruise, that was the entire point of the

266
00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:48.519
<v Speaker 4>movie was he had gotten out with his coach and

267
00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:51.039
<v Speaker 4>he the coach was promoting all the other players but him,

268
00:13:51.320 --> 00:13:53.960
<v Speaker 4>and he wasn't getting the college scholarship. Well, that hasn't

269
00:13:54.039 --> 00:13:58.240
<v Speaker 4>changed high school coaches, especially in football and basketball, if

270
00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:00.240
<v Speaker 4>they're not promoting you to the college co which is

271
00:14:00.320 --> 00:14:01.879
<v Speaker 4>tell me on your team, who can play with us,

272
00:14:02.240 --> 00:14:04.519
<v Speaker 4>and if they're not promoting you, you're out.

273
00:14:05.080 --> 00:14:09.600
<v Speaker 2>You're out. So that is an issue. But again blame blame.

274
00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:12.799
<v Speaker 4>The people are just we call it too passionate about sports,

275
00:14:13.679 --> 00:14:15.759
<v Speaker 4>and they are you need some of these people that

276
00:14:15.799 --> 00:14:17.120
<v Speaker 4>are too passionate about sports.

277
00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:19.440
<v Speaker 2>But well, this is the problem.

278
00:14:19.120 --> 00:14:22.559
<v Speaker 1>It can have. Like playing basketball in high school did

279
00:14:22.600 --> 00:14:25.120
<v Speaker 1>not do anything for me, like nothing as far as

280
00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:28.559
<v Speaker 1>like the actual playing the sport did anything for me

281
00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:31.200
<v Speaker 1>in life. But the experience and what I got from

282
00:14:31.240 --> 00:14:33.320
<v Speaker 1>it was to this day has been a huge impact

283
00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:33.919
<v Speaker 1>on my life.

284
00:14:33.960 --> 00:14:35.320
<v Speaker 2>And I was.

285
00:14:35.559 --> 00:14:37.399
<v Speaker 1>Really close with my high school coach and know a

286
00:14:37.399 --> 00:14:39.879
<v Speaker 1>lot of people were. And now you you can still

287
00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:42.240
<v Speaker 1>do that. It's gonna be there's gonna be some limitations

288
00:14:42.240 --> 00:14:43.919
<v Speaker 1>to it. It'll be an adjustment for a lot.

289
00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:46.600
<v Speaker 4>Here's the other difference is before if you walked onto

290
00:14:46.639 --> 00:14:50.159
<v Speaker 4>the field at Trinity or a Bullet East or wherever

291
00:14:51.360 --> 00:14:53.519
<v Speaker 4>as a freshman, that's the first time the coach is

292
00:14:54.200 --> 00:14:57.320
<v Speaker 4>the meeting you. Now high schools are like college used

293
00:14:57.360 --> 00:15:00.519
<v Speaker 4>to be. They know you from sixth grade, fifth grade

294
00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:04.320
<v Speaker 4>because they're recruiting the best kids out of fifth, sixth, seventh,

295
00:15:04.399 --> 00:15:07.159
<v Speaker 4>and eighth grade to get on your team, especially basketball,

296
00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:09.360
<v Speaker 4>because it's all the team is already set when we

297
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:12.759
<v Speaker 4>walk on as a freshman because there's tryouts, but they

298
00:15:12.799 --> 00:15:14.759
<v Speaker 4>au the team already.

299
00:15:14.879 --> 00:15:16.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the coach already knows you.

300
00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:17.919
<v Speaker 1>There's a system in place before you go to the

301
00:15:17.960 --> 00:15:18.399
<v Speaker 1>ninth grade.

302
00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:21.720
<v Speaker 4>So there's relationships there where, text messages with parents and

303
00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:26.240
<v Speaker 4>cell phones. I think it's I think it tries to

304
00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:29.559
<v Speaker 4>just like any policy, it tries to have a good intention,

305
00:15:30.080 --> 00:15:34.840
<v Speaker 4>but it'll end up hurting the majority of kids. And

306
00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:38.240
<v Speaker 4>it's relationships with their coaches and parents with the coaches, And.

307
00:15:38.279 --> 00:15:41.200
<v Speaker 1>It goes back to where we started here during the conversation.

308
00:15:41.559 --> 00:15:44.240
<v Speaker 1>There's a few bad apples, and again there's been way

309
00:15:44.279 --> 00:15:45.519
<v Speaker 1>more than a few. I don't want to act like

310
00:15:45.600 --> 00:15:47.559
<v Speaker 1>it's just limited and that we shouldn't they shouldn't be

311
00:15:47.600 --> 00:15:50.879
<v Speaker 1>taking this action because way more don't cross that line,

312
00:15:50.960 --> 00:15:53.559
<v Speaker 1>but enough have to where I think those who don't

313
00:15:53.559 --> 00:15:56.519
<v Speaker 1>even think about the athletics component here they just say, well, yeah,

314
00:15:56.559 --> 00:15:58.120
<v Speaker 1>it makes sense. Why would a teacher need to be

315
00:15:58.120 --> 00:16:01.320
<v Speaker 1>texting a fifteen year old on his on his cell phone? Well, again,

316
00:16:01.360 --> 00:16:04.000
<v Speaker 1>there are there's there's Again, I think there's If it's

317
00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:06.480
<v Speaker 1>not something that was part of your experience throughout your

318
00:16:06.559 --> 00:16:08.960
<v Speaker 1>days in school, you may not you may may not

319
00:16:09.039 --> 00:16:09.480
<v Speaker 1>realize it.

320
00:16:09.559 --> 00:16:12.039
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, and uh, this is a shocker to people.

321
00:16:12.279 --> 00:16:15.879
<v Speaker 4>Uh, there are inappropriate conversations at practice and things that

322
00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:18.720
<v Speaker 4>are said that are not politically correct, especially in sports

323
00:16:18.759 --> 00:16:23.039
<v Speaker 4>like football, basketball, hockey.

324
00:16:23.559 --> 00:16:26.360
<v Speaker 2>I mean there there's kind of them.

325
00:16:26.840 --> 00:16:29.360
<v Speaker 4>It might be all of the girls basketball probably is

326
00:16:29.399 --> 00:16:33.159
<v Speaker 4>an inappropriate conversations at practice and all that. Right, Well,

327
00:16:33.279 --> 00:16:37.120
<v Speaker 4>let's say you take that conversation to a text. Somebody

328
00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:39.480
<v Speaker 4>else reads it. Now it's like whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

329
00:16:39.480 --> 00:16:41.440
<v Speaker 4>why is he texting that? Well, it was a joke

330
00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:45.000
<v Speaker 4>and somebody said something about somebody else, or you know again,

331
00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:49.639
<v Speaker 4>sometimes legislation has a good, good intentions, but it then yeah,

332
00:16:49.639 --> 00:16:51.600
<v Speaker 4>in the end, and in the end it hurts everybody.

333
00:16:51.679 --> 00:16:54.879
<v Speaker 1>Yep, Tomorrow when we have some time, I have to

334
00:16:54.879 --> 00:16:56.600
<v Speaker 1>fit what are you doing with Aaron Rodgers? Or you

335
00:16:56.679 --> 00:16:58.159
<v Speaker 1>cannot like Aaron Rodgers?

336
00:16:58.200 --> 00:17:00.440
<v Speaker 4>No, as a Pittsburgh Steeler fans, and Sell was six

337
00:17:00.559 --> 00:17:04.720
<v Speaker 4>years old and Lambert, you know, he threatened to kill

338
00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:08.559
<v Speaker 4>a quarterback and Jack Lambert I had no teeth in

339
00:17:08.599 --> 00:17:10.720
<v Speaker 4>the front. I said, Okay, I'm a pisperst Heeler fan.

340
00:17:11.119 --> 00:17:11.640
<v Speaker 2>You can't.

341
00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:14.640
<v Speaker 4>This is gonna be feast or famine. He's either gonna

342
00:17:14.640 --> 00:17:16.559
<v Speaker 4>walk in and rock it out or he's gonna be

343
00:17:16.599 --> 00:17:17.519
<v Speaker 4>a complete disaster.

344
00:17:17.599 --> 00:17:19.079
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna cheer for him because you're a fan. I

345
00:17:19.119 --> 00:17:20.839
<v Speaker 1>get all that, but man like, it'd be hard to

346
00:17:20.920 --> 00:17:22.799
<v Speaker 1>cheer for that guy, even if my team's winning, because

347
00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:26.039
<v Speaker 1>I can't stand him and his mysterious wife that he's

348
00:17:26.039 --> 00:17:27.440
<v Speaker 1>now claiming he wants privacy.

349
00:17:27.480 --> 00:17:28.799
<v Speaker 2>He's not gonna.

350
00:17:28.440 --> 00:17:31.160
<v Speaker 1>Well, you clearly put it out. There's people he craves

351
00:17:31.200 --> 00:17:35.039
<v Speaker 1>attention so badly, and his nonchalant just I have so

352
00:17:35.119 --> 00:17:37.200
<v Speaker 1>much on it. He's just on a different level intellectually

353
00:17:37.240 --> 00:17:39.279
<v Speaker 1>than us. It just irritates me. Yeah, all right, we're

354
00:17:39.279 --> 00:17:40.720
<v Speaker 1>out of time. Tony Dwater coming up next.
