I'm not. Now you see me, now you don't. But

28
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,319
this BU basketball team could be now you see me,

now you don't. Tomorrow they could get back in the

30
00:01:09,359 --> 00:01:11,680
win column. They're looking to get back in the win column.

31
00:01:11,879 --> 00:01:15,719
They've dropped the last couple against formidable opponents. But we're

32
00:01:15,719 --> 00:01:18,079

49
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,280
how we doing, Hey, Happy Friday.

50
00:02:01,719 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 3: It's nice to hear you holding it down over there today.

51
00:02:04,359 --> 00:02:04,879
Good job.

52
00:02:05,079 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: Hey, try my best too. It's better to be trusted

53
00:02:08,439 --> 00:02:09,840
to hold it down. And you know, you have to

54
00:02:09,879 --> 00:02:12,039
work hard to be in these positions. They're not given,

55
00:02:12,039 --> 00:02:15,319
they're earned. So I always tell myself, so we'll keep

56
00:02:15,319 --> 00:02:17,280
doing things right so I can continue to hold it down.

57
00:02:17,319 --> 00:02:19,879
And I appreciate it always being trusted and then getting

58
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:21,199
wonderful guests like you on the station.

59
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 3: Listen. I'll do whatever I can, whatever you ask, I'll.

60
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,639
Speaker 1: Do so I appreciate you well. Speaking of ask, I

61
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,639
know Cougar Nation's asking for a win tomorrow, Dave. The

62
00:02:32,719 --> 00:02:35,439
last couple of games where they've played a formidable opponent

63
00:02:35,759 --> 00:02:38,759
hasn't gone their way. They've competed, they're right there. That

64
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,319
first half hasn't been what they wanted. Texas Tech, they

65
00:02:41,319 --> 00:02:44,439
had them on the ropes, failed down to stretch. Arizona

66
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,080
looks like they have the game than Braiden Burry's makes

67
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,199
a great play. Now you get another opportunity against Kansas.

68
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,479
What do you make of these? I hate to say

69
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,680
like good, there's no good loss because you lost, but

70
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,240
these chances BYU's had to put away these teams, but

71
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:58,000
they've come up short.

72
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:06,039
Speaker 3: Under standable losses Number one Arizona, number two Connecticut, and

73
00:03:06,199 --> 00:03:10,919
number eleven Texas Tech Red Raiders in Lubbock, Houston win

74
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:15,199
there either Yukon and no one's won there except Arizona

75
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,319
and they and they're the other team. So at seventeen

76
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,319
and three, it's certainly not a time to panic and

77
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:26,159
think that this is a group of underachievers. Just the opposite.

78
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,759
They've had opportunities in those three games which might say

79
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,520
more about this team then we're giving them credit for

80
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,719
because they lost those games and it's time for them

81
00:03:37,759 --> 00:03:40,960
to win a top fifteen game, and that's tomorrow. I

82
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,879
feel really good about their chanceas tomorrow that b YU

83
00:03:43,919 --> 00:03:46,840
is a really good team and Kansas is too, but

84
00:03:46,879 --> 00:03:50,080
I think by US better and we'll see and coming

85
00:03:50,159 --> 00:03:53,840
off the loss with a few days in between, they'll

86
00:03:53,879 --> 00:03:57,520
be rested and eager to go. And this game's got

87
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:02,159
all the makings must see TV. It's not it must

88
00:04:02,159 --> 00:04:05,080
win for BYU, but it's must see if you're a

89
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,639
BYU fan and you know you have Houston a week

90
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:12,400
from tomorrow and then Arizona on the road and Iowa

91
00:04:12,439 --> 00:04:16,040
State in I mean, hey, this is this is nuts

92
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,680
and you've got to you got to pick off a

93
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,319
couple of these. Tomorrow is a really good opportunity because

94
00:04:22,319 --> 00:04:24,839
it's the one in front of them, and I like

95
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:29,240
their shot. I think those three losses are Yeah, they're disappointing,

96
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,560
but you're not gonna win all your games. And they

97
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,399
they've lost three really good teams, and they've beaten some

98
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,600
good teams. They just haven't beaten the top fourteen team.

99
00:04:38,879 --> 00:04:40,079
And they can do that tomorrow.

100
00:04:41,319 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 1: Definitely could do that tomorrow. You bring up a good point.

101
00:04:43,199 --> 00:04:46,040
I mean, these three losses are all the top teams.

102
00:04:46,079 --> 00:04:48,199
I mean, you know, again you can't say bad loss,

103
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,079
but I mean as expected do you feel like though

104
00:04:51,079 --> 00:04:54,800
that maybe Arizona had a really good, really good scout

105
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,560
on BYU the quick turnaround for both teams, but it

106
00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,519
just seems like BYU is just a half a step

107
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,800
behind it. Everything that they did, Richie getting blitzed there

108
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,079
for aj on doubles, not letting rob you to the

109
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,399
basket and making him finish tough. It just seems like

110
00:05:07,439 --> 00:05:09,720
Arizona was well connected in every aspect of the game.

111
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 3: Weather number one and they're undefeated. There's a reason for

112
00:05:14,399 --> 00:05:16,800
all that. And they played a tough schedule. It's not

113
00:05:16,879 --> 00:05:20,759
like Arizona is playing the WCC and they beat Yukon

114
00:05:22,199 --> 00:05:25,800
and they were healthy, and they don't have the big three.

115
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,319
They got five solid starters and some help off the bench.

116
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:34,439
So they're a different team from from BYU. The Cougars

117
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:37,800
in Utah on Saturday and and what aj did and

118
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,120
then having Sunday off and then you play Monday night.

119
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,000
I would have loved that game to be on Tuesday,

120
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,839
but it wasn't. It's on Monday, and by you didn't

121
00:05:44,879 --> 00:05:48,759
practice on Sunday. It's not an excuse, it's just the reality.

122
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,560
And the Cougars weren't as sharp, especially in that first half,

123
00:05:52,959 --> 00:05:55,720
and Arizona was and when they needed a basket, they

124
00:05:55,759 --> 00:05:57,759
just got one. That's what the best team in the

125
00:05:57,759 --> 00:06:00,560
country does, and the teams at wont be the best

126
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,519
team in the country. You've got to figure out how

127
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,959
to do that. And maybe by you saw some of

128
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:09,000
that in the second half when Canard Davis started hitting

129
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,959
shots which he hadn't done in weeks. I like to

130
00:06:12,959 --> 00:06:15,439
say Coastage comes off the bench and hits a couple

131
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,680
of shots which he hadn't done in weeks. If the

132
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:23,800
discovery of the outside shot for those two guys joined

133
00:06:23,879 --> 00:06:26,759
the big three, and then whatever Kabas got to offer,

134
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,399
you're a different team when you play Arizona again on

135
00:06:30,519 --> 00:06:34,399
February eighteenth, you might be a different team tomorrow. There's

136
00:06:34,399 --> 00:06:37,560
a lot of pressure on Canard Davis to knock down

137
00:06:37,639 --> 00:06:40,480
two or three shots early so that the rest of

138
00:06:40,519 --> 00:06:43,480
the team can go all right, he's back now we

139
00:06:43,519 --> 00:06:45,800
can count on him. And then the defense has got

140
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,800
to freak out because now they can't just put two

141
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,360
guys on aj Or on Ritchie or on rob Or.

142
00:06:53,079 --> 00:06:56,439
And that's been the missing If there's a missing piece,

143
00:06:57,319 --> 00:06:59,920
that's the piece the fourth score. And if they found

144
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,199
that against Arizona. In the long run, the goal is

145
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,279
to win the Big Dance. Right in the long run,

146
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,600
BYU is going to come out way ahead. It didn't

147
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,759
matter that they got beat by Arizona on Monday, and

148
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,079
it might not matter if Arizona beats him in Tucson

149
00:07:15,759 --> 00:07:18,800
on the eighteenth. What matters is if they play Arizona

150
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,600
again in March, that they win that game, because that's

151
00:07:21,639 --> 00:07:24,360
the game that ends the season. So they've got some

152
00:07:24,439 --> 00:07:28,680
time to pull it together. But they're build around three pieces,

153
00:07:28,879 --> 00:07:32,639
the best trio of starters in the country. But there's

154
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,439
five guys out there, and all five got to contribute

155
00:07:35,839 --> 00:07:38,319
to beat the number one team in the country or

156
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,720
the number two team. They lost by two points to

157
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,360
one and by what three points to the other, and

158
00:07:45,399 --> 00:07:47,800
then down in Lubbock, you know you're up by nine

159
00:07:47,839 --> 00:07:50,959
with nine twenty six to go, and Texas Tech reminds

160
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,000
everybody they too have a shot to win the national title.

161
00:07:54,519 --> 00:07:56,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, has a lot of good teams as Big twelve

162
00:07:56,199 --> 00:07:59,399
as not. Joke hasn't been from the beginning of time

163
00:07:59,759 --> 00:08:02,560
is not has not changed one bit with BYU in

164
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,920
and now we got Dave McCann Coast of Wise Guys

165
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,160
and bau TV and a part of the Desert News

166
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:08,600
on the line with us and then the Cougar Beat

167
00:08:08,639 --> 00:08:11,560
here on this Friday, January thirtieth edition of Cougar Sports

168
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,519
on one to three nine in your Utah ESPN Radio network.

169
00:08:15,519 --> 00:08:17,439
You said Kapa Caada, I want to go back to him.

170
00:08:17,759 --> 00:08:20,360
He was named the twenty twenty six and Nate Smid

171
00:08:20,439 --> 00:08:22,279
Defensive Player of the Week is on the watch list

172
00:08:22,519 --> 00:08:26,240
for how impactful does he need to be tomorrow around

173
00:08:26,319 --> 00:08:29,000
the rim. This is a Kansas team that you got

174
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,360
to keep out of. They give up a lot of

175
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,639
offensive rebounds. And if you remember CABA's performances on the

176
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,840
road last year, Dave think he had a career high.

177
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,440
It was at Iowa State. It's not Kansas, but that's

178
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,399
still a pretty good performance to bring sixteen offensive rebounds down.

179
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, and BYU is a pretty good rebounding team. They're

180
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:51,279
a better rebounding team than Kansas. They get more defensive

181
00:08:51,279 --> 00:08:54,879
boards than offensive boards when matched up with the Jayhawks.

182
00:08:54,879 --> 00:08:57,440
But the key for Kaba is to stay out of

183
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,440
foul trouble early so that he can stay in the

184
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,519
game and get into his rhythm. And especially on offense,

185
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,039
those lob dunks and things like that, they only work

186
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,240
when he's in the game. And you know this last

187
00:09:10,919 --> 00:09:15,159
really since he rolled his ankle coming back, it's been

188
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,720
one thing or another, but it's typically been fouls that

189
00:09:17,799 --> 00:09:20,399
have kept him out of the game. And so he's

190
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,799
got to stay in it, and he's got to play tough,

191
00:09:23,399 --> 00:09:27,639
and he's the recipient of everything good that the Big

192
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,360
three and let's say the four. Let's say the Big

193
00:09:30,399 --> 00:09:35,279
four bring. Keba's the recipient because then the lobs are there,

194
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,320
he's not getting double team down low and he kind

195
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,399
of roam and be free, and we know what he

196
00:09:40,399 --> 00:09:43,039
can do on defense. It's a key for him on

197
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:47,240
the road in a hostile environment to stay in the game.

198
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,480
Now I'm Mad is getting better and a great addition

199
00:09:52,039 --> 00:09:55,600
brings in size and strength, and that can give Caba

200
00:09:55,639 --> 00:09:58,360
a spell. But I think it works best when when

201
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,240
I'm Mad gives Caba a break as opposed to Ahmed

202
00:10:01,399 --> 00:10:05,039
is in because Keba is out with fouls and he's

203
00:10:05,039 --> 00:10:07,639
going to stay out for a while. So I'll be

204
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:11,879
watching that early. What's Caba going to do? Can he

205
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,039
can he get through to the first time out without

206
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,240
picking up a foul. Maybe then you get to the

207
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:17,879
second time out, it's gonna be a physical game. You

208
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,639
got five fouls, so you can use four of them,

209
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,559
but you just can't use them early because then it

210
00:10:23,759 --> 00:10:27,639
impedes his ability to be free and run. And when

211
00:10:27,759 --> 00:10:30,679
he's when he's improvised a little bit, you know, he

212
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:34,600
can block any shot and throw down some miraculous dunks

213
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,399
and just cause enough trouble where the center for Kansas knows.

214
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,320
I have to stay on him no matter what AJ's doing.

215
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,240
I've got to stay on this guy, and that gives

216
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,679
AJ more options. So a lot of it is about

217
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,919
foul trouble tomorrow, and if Kaba can avoid it, I

218
00:10:51,919 --> 00:10:54,799
think he can have a real influence on the outcome.

219
00:10:55,159 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: Got to stay out of foul trouble and get Kansas

220
00:10:57,399 --> 00:11:00,360
into foul trouble. That's the name of the game. But

221
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,919
I want to talk about a guy. He's had some

222
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:07,600
foul troubles themselves up and down, but excuse me, he's

223
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,759
also you know, he's been hit or miss Myhilo. I

224
00:11:10,759 --> 00:11:13,000
feel like it's the one guy outside of AJ and

225
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,279
in Rob, because Rob had had a day at Kansas

226
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,879
against them he's the only guy on this roster that's

227
00:11:17,879 --> 00:11:20,120
played in like more hostile environments that's been able to

228
00:11:20,159 --> 00:11:23,519
do this. He's been up and down. What does he

229
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,080
need to provide or what do you expect out of

230
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,240
my high low? Because that's a guy I mean when

231
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,000
he's feeling that he's on, but I also feel like

232
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:30,039
when he's off, he's off.

233
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's been a tough one with his consistency. But

234
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,279
you know, if there's foul trouble, he plays more, and

235
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,519
if Eyu stays out of foul trouble, he doesn't. And

236
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:47,480
so it's really hard to gauge. You know, the how

237
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:51,480
the game flows will determine how much of Votskovich that

238
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,320
we see. He's knocked down a couple of big shots

239
00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:59,240
and and he's six' ten and he can. Guard you,

240
00:11:59,279 --> 00:12:02,879
know you get things and you lose some things when

241
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,320
he's in the, Game BUT i you, know when he

242
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,200
does go in and who knows how long he's gonna play,

243
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,639
tomorrow it's it's to play defense and to get some,

244
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,120
rebounds and he loves to, shoot and he's going to

245
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:19,399
if he's, open it's going up and he's got to

246
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,519
knock him. Down think about these guys coming off the.

247
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,200
Bench if they come in and miss their first, two

248
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:28,919
they're out because you can't you can't Beat kansas three

249
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,399
on five or four on. Five it's got to be.

250
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,120
Five your five guys on the floor have to all

251
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,200
be contributors to win on the road in The big.

252
00:12:37,279 --> 00:12:39,600
Twelve and so you, know when they come, in you

253
00:12:39,919 --> 00:12:43,320
hope they make their first shot because it relaxes, Them

254
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:47,879
it Relaxes Kevin young and his, staff and might even

255
00:12:47,919 --> 00:12:51,080
relax the rotation a little bit because because you're, Producing

256
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,240
like when When boot comes in and gets, rebounds he stays.

257
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,559
In but if he comes in and kind of gets

258
00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:01,120
lost in between the other six six nine guys and

259
00:13:01,399 --> 00:13:03,840
it is still working on this outside, shot then he

260
00:13:03,879 --> 00:13:05,480
can come back out of the game because he's not

261
00:13:05,519 --> 00:13:08,559
making a. Difference but we've Seen boop get in there

262
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:13,399
and really dig in and, fight and you, know, again

263
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:18,799
his minutes are all determined on. Situations the starting, five you,

264
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,759
know are in, there and they're in there for a,

265
00:13:20,799 --> 00:13:23,879
reason but the rhyme or reason coming off the bench

266
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:26,799
is so situational it's hard to. Know, well you, Know

267
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,759
boskovich might play five minutes, tomorrow he might play Twenty

268
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,159
kostitch has hardly played it. All But ritchie fouled out

269
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,840
at the end of The arizona game and he comes

270
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:41,039
in and hits one or two big. Shots, well he

271
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,519
can hit those big shots when he comes in in

272
00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:47,159
the first. Half we might see more of him before

273
00:13:47,159 --> 00:13:49,600
he has to be in because of foul. Trouble so

274
00:13:49,639 --> 00:13:51,559
all those guys have a chance to earn their. Minutes

275
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,200
but they got a knocked down shots Then mars. Too

276
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:58,960
they brought into knockdown shots in this environment in these,

277
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,559
games and if you can't do, it you got to

278
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:05,000
put someone else, in you. Know AND i Know Kevin

279
00:14:05,039 --> 00:14:07,200
young is hoping they all do it because that's what

280
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:08,720
he brought him in here. For he.

281
00:14:08,759 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 1: Did he, says this game is about hitting, shots making.

282
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:12,799
Shots that's how he's stay in the. Game and he

283
00:14:12,799 --> 00:14:15,480
even mentioned to your point About, alexi he, said he

284
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:19,039
put his hand up and you, know earned himself an. Opportunity,

285
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:20,759
now like you, said you're only going to get two

286
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,080
or three, shots says the other guys are going to

287
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,279
take majority of. It roberts and, ah you hit, those

288
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,879
you stay, in you miss he will go. Elsewhere AND

289
00:14:28,279 --> 00:14:30,200
i believe that's while you're not seeing guys like you,

290
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,320
know Maybe Tyler russ And Dominique. Diamande do you expect

291
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,000
the rotation tomorrow OF i don't want to see everybody

292
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,480
get an, opportunity But kansas is bigger there. Longer do

293
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,279
you expect the guy Like dominique maybe to make its

294
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,399
way if If hadim is not giving it what you

295
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,120
need and it sounds Like alexi might see an opportunity,

296
00:14:46,159 --> 00:14:47,159
tomorrow maybe in that first.

297
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 3: Half it's really hard to. Say on the road in

298
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:57,039
The big, twelve that rotation can tighten up real. Fast

299
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,919
it loosens up when there's. Fouls if those first five

300
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,519
stay out of foul, trouble outside of a, break you

301
00:15:03,559 --> 00:15:06,279
want to have them on the. Floor why would you

302
00:15:06,279 --> 00:15:08,840
ever Take Cannard davis out if he's hitting his? Threes

303
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:13,639
never take two. Fouls you know a j And, rob

304
00:15:13,799 --> 00:15:15,360
you know you got to take him out to give

305
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,960
him a. Break but if you're taking them out to,

306
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:21,759
protecting to protect them from, fouls then they're staying out

307
00:15:21,799 --> 00:15:23,679
for a little while and then all of a sudden

308
00:15:23,679 --> 00:15:27,159
there's pressure on who replaced. Them the big five will call.

309
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,399
It the starting five have got to play like one

310
00:15:30,679 --> 00:15:35,759
unit and they got to be connected and then they'll

311
00:15:35,879 --> 00:15:39,200
the starting five will win this game tomorrow and with

312
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:44,360
some enhancements from the. Bench But rob AND aj can't

313
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,879
go nine for, forty not in the big. Twelve and

314
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,120
you go nine for, forty you're gonna lose by three.

315
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:54,519
Points so so go go ten for thirty, nine or you,

316
00:15:54,559 --> 00:15:57,399
know go ten for. Forty you just you're that. Close

317
00:15:57,519 --> 00:16:00,440
but yet felt so far because they both had off.

318
00:16:00,559 --> 00:16:03,440
Nights but you can't Beat kansas going nine of, forty

319
00:16:03,679 --> 00:16:05,600
and they're probably not gonna go nine of forty because

320
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,559
they're really. Good they just were up against the number

321
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,759
one team with a lot of pressure at, home and

322
00:16:10,799 --> 00:16:13,799
they had off. NIGHTS aj said it best after the,

323
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:17,120
Game hey what did they do to defend? You or

324
00:16:17,399 --> 00:16:20,519
you know? What and he, SAID i just missed. Shots that's.

325
00:16:20,559 --> 00:16:23,720
IT i miss SHOTS i normally make And i'm going

326
00:16:23,799 --> 00:16:26,600
to make those shots, again which is true when it

327
00:16:26,639 --> 00:16:28,759
doesn't matter how he's being. Defended when he's in the

328
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:32,440
in the lane and does his turnaround jump shot where

329
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,960
he jumps up to like eight, feet that's a wide

330
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,679
open shot no matter who's garden. Him you just have

331
00:16:37,759 --> 00:16:40,960
to make that shot easier said than done for you and,

332
00:16:41,039 --> 00:16:44,960
me but not for. Him it's what he. Does SO

333
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,960
i think that the nine of forty, nine and you,

334
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,200
know And, Richie richie really needs to have a good,

335
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,679
game but needs to have a good first. Half and

336
00:16:54,759 --> 00:16:57,679
talk about a guy who's been hampered by fouls as of,

337
00:16:57,799 --> 00:17:01,919
late it seems like it's been and that keeps him

338
00:17:01,919 --> 00:17:03,559
from getting into a. Rhythm and he's a, shooter and

339
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,359
a shooter needs, rhythm you. Know and he's gone one for,

340
00:17:07,519 --> 00:17:09,799
seven they'll come back and go three for, six or

341
00:17:10,279 --> 00:17:13,799
he just needs from the three point. Line he needs

342
00:17:13,799 --> 00:17:16,799
to hit early and get into it and get into

343
00:17:16,839 --> 00:17:20,039
the flow and really cause a disruption because then when

344
00:17:20,039 --> 00:17:22,000
they run out to him because he's hit a couple of,

345
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,400
threes he'll blow right past. Him AND i don't know

346
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:28,160
anyone better at the rim Than Richie. Saunders whether it's

347
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,200
going from behind the basket or in, front it doesn't.

348
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,799
Matter he's got a knack for converting at the. Rim

349
00:17:34,839 --> 00:17:37,160
but his three point shot opens up lanes to the.

350
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,319
Basket and if they're going to let him shoot the,

351
00:17:39,319 --> 00:17:42,400
three as we've seen the last three, years he'll bury

352
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,079
you from out. There so long as he's not for

353
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:49,359
four or for, five and he's good enough to not

354
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,920
be oh for, four he needs to be that good.

355
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:57,559
Tomorrow and he's you, know historically played well Against. Kansas

356
00:17:57,599 --> 00:17:59,960
but these are the biggest games and these are by

357
00:18:00,039 --> 00:18:03,400
the biggest. Players they've all got a, FIRE, Aj ritchie And.

358
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:07,440
Rob neither one can have an off. Night if you

359
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,440
want to beat a big what number fourteen team on

360
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:14,039
the road in the one thousandth game in the history

361
00:18:14,039 --> 00:18:16,599
Of Vallen Field, house those guys have got to be

362
00:18:16,599 --> 00:18:18,839
firing and then they need some. Support SO i look

363
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,720
For richie's that there's some pressure on him to be

364
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,960
one of the big three tomorrow in this.

365
00:18:25,039 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 1: Game, yeah it'd be one of the big free stat

366
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,880
of foul. Trouble can't have The Top king fifteen found

367
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:31,319
out of. Games it just hurts. You you have to

368
00:18:31,319 --> 00:18:33,559
wonder if he's in the game And rob takes that

369
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,920
Drives bradenbury's. Blitz maybe he still, does BUT i don't

370
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:39,440
know if you leave the Top king open for a

371
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,200
wide open three in the house To jim Or build

372
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,119
it might have Been ba's, way but that should have

373
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,119
Could we'll get you out of here on this, One,

374
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,640
DAVE i do want a transition. Football god always mentioned

375
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,000
some football in the. Program Micah beckstead is added to

376
00:18:52,519 --> 00:18:55,559
THE byu roster in the running back, room enrolled the

377
00:18:55,559 --> 00:18:58,279
Former Utah state just got off of. Mission what do

378
00:18:58,319 --> 00:19:00,319

back the offensive player of the year in The big.

382
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:15,400
Twelve moa should be. HEALTHY i thought De mooney showed

383
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:20,599
some good stuff in the bowl. Game and the kid From,

384
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,799
lehigh he could actually get in there and be a

385
00:19:25,799 --> 00:19:29,240
difference maker with his speed even though he'll be a.

386
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:33,720
Freshman and then you Add beckstead and and that's. Good

387
00:19:34,799 --> 00:19:37,400
the more the merrier in. There ideally you just have.

388
00:19:37,559 --> 00:19:42,359
Two but they just had to really last year and

389
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,680
they both got, hurt and so you had running backs

390
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,160
in the bowl game and you're, like who's? That what numbers?

391
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:52,519
That what numbers? That, so, yeah you got to get

392
00:19:52,519 --> 00:19:54,839
your guys, healthy which they're in the process of. Doing

393
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:58,440

552
00:26:54,319 --> 00:26:55,720

553
00:26:55,759 --> 00:26:58,279
like this dude is. Phenomenals like how have we missed

554
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,319
having them? On especially with that last Name? Kellerman no

555
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,759
doubt BEFORE i know this is a basketball, segment BUT

556
00:27:03,839 --> 00:27:05,960
i do need to ask, YOU i guess about football,

557
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,480
too because why football runs the ship at every you know,

558
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,519
program unless It's. Arizona football drives the. Ship the basketball

559
00:27:11,559 --> 00:27:14,920
drive the ship, there excuse, me but just thoughts on you,

560
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,920
know lands Light. Pole The Kansas jayhawks b yu's zero

561
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,920
and two against them in in, football but two and

562
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:23,279
oh in. Basketball so Far Jayalen daniels leaves the, program

563
00:27:23,279 --> 00:27:25,319
but you pick up a nice pickup And Dylan edwards

564
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,680
in the. OFFSEASON i like his game From Kansas. State

565
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,319
what do you what do you feel? Like, Uh kansas

566
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:31,680
takes in football going into the.

567
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 4: Offseason, yeah how strange is? That first, off the two

568
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:37,640
and OH byu is Against kansas and basketball and oh

569
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:39,960
and two in, football you wouldn't have you wouldn't have guessed,

570
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:43,279
that right since NEVER byu joined the. Conference so, yeah

571
00:27:43,279 --> 00:27:45,319
that's kind of how it's. Gone but you, know the

572
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:48,160
last two seasons OF ku football have been have been.

573
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,480
DISAPPOINTING i would say it's fair to say that five

574
00:27:50,519 --> 00:27:54,119
and seven both years and disappointing BECAUSE i, mean you,

575
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,519
know everybody knows Where kansas football. Was from about two

576
00:27:56,559 --> 00:27:59,559
thousand and eight until twenty. Twenty we had season where

577
00:27:59,559 --> 00:28:02,279
we didn't win games and it was down in the.

578
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,400
Dumps you Hired lighthole in twenty twenty, one and then

579
00:28:05,559 --> 00:28:07,880
he really brought the program up from the. DEAD i,

580
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,519
mean it was the bottom program in terms of power,

581
00:28:10,599 --> 00:28:13,920
conferences and you won six, games went to The Liberty

582
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,000
bowl in twenty, two you won nine, Games you won

583
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,319
The Rate bowl At Chase field in twenty, three and

584
00:28:20,319 --> 00:28:22,799
then you Had Jaylen daniels coming back for twenty four

585
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:24,799
and you were, thinking all, right this is the last YEAR.

586
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:28,119
Jd and he was rusty the first, half didn't play,

587
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,240
well the second. Half so then he got another year

588
00:28:30,279 --> 00:28:32,160
of him in twenty five and he was great the

589
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,200
first half and then didn't play well the second. Half

590
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,079
so he had like a thirteen game stretch where he

591
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:40,519
was as good as any quarterback IN ku, history but

592
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,119
it was across two seasons And, kansas you, know just

593
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:47,279
didn't get consistent. Play you pair that with losing so

594
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,079
many close, games blowing so many fourth quarter, leads and

595
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,519
it led to back to back five and seven. Seasons

596
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,240
but this upcoming, season like you, said it'll be the

597
00:28:55,279 --> 00:28:58,160
first time Since lighthold got here that there's a quarterback.

598
00:28:58,599 --> 00:29:01,480
Battle Isaiah, Marshall ye think he's going to eventually win.

599
00:29:01,559 --> 00:29:03,440
That he is a guy who's going to be third

600
00:29:03,519 --> 00:29:06,160
year in the, program a dual, threat kind of can

601
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,119
do a little bit of, everything but he'll be a

602
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,680
little raw still with not having as much game. Talent

603
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,039
and you Mentioned. EDWARDS i, mean he came over from

604
00:29:13,119 --> 00:29:15,680
K state and they hate, us so that was kind

605
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:19,359
of funny for. Us he's the type of scatback that we.

606
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,680
Needed the big story For kansas football heading into this upcoming,

607
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:26,640
season ron is we are bringing back our offensive coordinator

608
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,720
from those two bowl seasons THAT i Mentioned andy Cotal

609
00:29:29,799 --> 00:29:32,440
nicky is coming back as the associate head. Coach he

610
00:29:32,559 --> 00:29:35,880
spent the last two seasons As Penn state's offensive, Coordinator

611
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,599
so we're keeping our offensive, coordinator but we're bringing Codl

612
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,000
nicky back as the associate head. Coach AND i think

613
00:29:41,039 --> 00:29:44,200
having the dual THREAT qb THAT i think Again marshall

614
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,599
will win that. Job With edwards who comes over from

615
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,079
K state and some other nice, pieces there's reason for

616
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,279
hope for, sure and we've got a new stadium that's

617
00:29:52,279 --> 00:29:54,000
going to be finalized at the end of twenty twenty.

618
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,720
SIX i think there's a decent amount of pressure to

619
00:29:56,759 --> 00:29:57,480
win this upcoming.

620
00:29:57,519 --> 00:29:57,839

661
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:47,039
flex to case postgame when coach, said, oh, yeah he'll,

662
00:31:47,039 --> 00:31:51,440
play as we didn't need him today, necessarily but he's

663
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:53,400
gonna want to. PLAY i, mean it's just there have

664
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,640
been games That darren's, missed and you, know there's a

665
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,039
lot that's gone into, that and it's been tough FOR

666
00:31:58,119 --> 00:32:00,960
kau fans. HONESTLY i, mean you know how fan bases.

667
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,960
GET i, mean people, say, oh you collecting the nil

668
00:32:05,079 --> 00:32:08,599
check and all. That he legitimately has had leg, issues

669
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,279
whether it's a hamstring or cramping and that sort of,

670
00:32:11,279 --> 00:32:14,839
thing and it just hasn't been a one hundred. Situation

671
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,960
AND i, think you know a couple of weeks ago

672
00:32:17,039 --> 00:32:18,759
he was getting close to one hundred percent and then

673
00:32:18,839 --> 00:32:22,920
rolled his ankle At. Colorado did finish that, game but

674
00:32:23,079 --> 00:32:26,640
you knew with the fact That kansas bye week, coming you,

675
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,960
know happened to be in BETWEEN Kse state AND. Byu it's, Like,

676
00:32:30,039 --> 00:32:32,400
kay only one game in the next ten, Days let's

677
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:34,440
see if we can rest UP vp and see if

678
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,359
he can. Go So i'm not saying he's going to

679
00:32:36,359 --> 00:32:38,920
be one hundred, percent BUT i think he'll be as

680
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,880
close to it as he's. Been we haven't heard much

681
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:45,240
from the leg side of. THINGS i assume that's subsided

682
00:32:45,279 --> 00:32:47,759
the past month or, so so that's been. Big i'll

683
00:32:47,759 --> 00:32:52,359
say this Regarding. Kay you you, know With peterson being

684
00:32:52,359 --> 00:32:55,440
in out of the, lineup it's been pretty choppy For

685
00:32:55,519 --> 00:32:58,799
kansas until The Iowa state. GAME kyu lost To West.

686
00:32:58,839 --> 00:33:01,119
Virginia they were sitting at eleven and, five one and

687
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,079
two In big twelve. Play you lose To West, virginia

688
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:05,599
who you know at that, time you're thinking it was

689
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,039
a bottom. Feeder all of a sudden you look and

690
00:33:07,039 --> 00:33:10,000
they're five and, three but you lose To West virginia

691
00:33:10,039 --> 00:33:11,559
and you're, like, man this is not. Right we're falling

692
00:33:11,559 --> 00:33:13,200
out of the, rankings and now we got number Two

693
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,839
Iowa state coming. IN i don't know what, changed But

694
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,599
Iowa state came in and K you just put it on.

695
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:21,799
Them and it was the first time WITH dp out

696
00:33:21,799 --> 00:33:26,240
there that K you really was showing aggressiveness from all.

697
00:33:26,279 --> 00:33:29,519
Spots With peterson in and out of the, lineup there

698
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:33,240
had been times Where kansas looked better without him because

699
00:33:33,359 --> 00:33:35,920
the guys had just so many more reps without, him

700
00:33:36,119 --> 00:33:37,759
and then when he came, back it was a lot

701
00:33:37,759 --> 00:33:40,359
of ball watching kind of stagnant because it was a

702
00:33:40,359 --> 00:33:42,000
lot of all, right let's just stand in the corner

703
00:33:42,119 --> 00:33:45,839
and WATCH dp go to. Work something clicked to where

704
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,400
the guys started being aggressive when dpd was out, there

705
00:33:49,559 --> 00:33:52,480
AND dp was, aggressive and all of a, sudden the

706
00:33:52,519 --> 00:33:56,119
guys were kind of. Jelling and now we, saw even

707
00:33:56,119 --> 00:33:59,680
THOUGH dp didn't play against K, state it looked like

708
00:33:59,759 --> 00:34:02,759
a team that's kind of found its. Rhythm So ky's

709
00:34:02,839 --> 00:34:05,880
rolled off four straight after The Io state. Game it

710
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:08,119
hasn't been the most difficult, stretch but they needed to

711
00:34:08,119 --> 00:34:09,960
win those four games to kind of get back in the.

712
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,280
Conversation and, again most importantly is it seems like the

713
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,320
guys are gelling more Whether peterson is out there or,

714
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,760
not which is a really big story around here while

715
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:20,880
he was in and out during most of the non Con.

716
00:34:21,199 --> 00:34:23,559
Speaker 1: Look those four games are. Valuable you beat a top

717
00:34:23,599 --> 00:34:25,239
ten opponent at. HOME i know it was on the

718
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,360
road for, them but that's. Difficult you beat them by.

719
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,000
Twenty then you have to Play, baylor a top quad one.

720
00:34:30,039 --> 00:34:31,159
Team you beat, them and then you got to go

721
00:34:31,159 --> 00:34:32,679
on the. Road we know how difficult it is to

722
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:34,920
win in The big. Twelve you get A colorado team

723
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:36,840
and then you get A Kansas state. Team both of

724
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,920
those places aren't easy to. Play SO i, MEAN i

725
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,400
look at that. Schedule people could say not, formidable but to,

726
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:44,239
me that's tough. Regardless but that leads me to my next.

727
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:48,000
Question this, Team elite eight, team you, know where do

728
00:34:48,039 --> 00:34:50,480
you see the? Ceiling obviously you need a player Like

729
00:34:50,559 --> 00:34:53,159
Darren pittison to compete for a national, championship but you

730
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:54,840
just mentioned. It at times when he's not in the

731
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,320
gam or on the, floor they look better at, Times.

732
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,880
Speaker 4: Yeah they, Have AND i think that that's going to

733
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:04,239
eventually not be true BECAUSE i, think ASSUMING dp is

734
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:07,320
going to be. Healthy you, know PEOPLE i mean people around. Here,

735
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,360
Again LIKE i, said you know how fans GET i

736
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,960
mean they get salty and they get tried full about

737
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,400
their program and you, know, oh you, know they want

738
00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:19,360
him to be tiring enough About kansas to play out

739
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,840
there no matter he. Does it's not, that it's, just you,

740
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:24,519
know everything's better when you're, winning and everything's worse when you're.

741
00:35:24,559 --> 00:35:27,400
Losing and if you're, losing all of a, sudden it

742
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,239
feels like the wheels are falling. Off this guy doesn't

743
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:31,920
want to play. Here do the guys even like each?

744
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,760
Other there hasn't been any of. That BUT i think

745
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,639
with a Healthy peterson out, THERE i Think kansas could

746
00:35:37,679 --> 00:35:39,880
get to The final. Four AND i know that's saying a,

747
00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:43,480
lot but what's changed compared to the last couple of,

748
00:35:43,519 --> 00:35:47,880
years which have BEEN i can't even overstay this incredibly

749
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,719
disappointing from a kau basketball. Standpoint you're a four seed

750
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:53,280
and a seven. Seed kansas had never been lower than

751
00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,559
a four before getting a seven last, year so people

752
00:35:56,559 --> 00:35:59,440
were hungry for a roster. Turnover the difference is they've

753
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:02,519
gotten these other guys in who they've hit on in

754
00:36:02,559 --> 00:36:06,440
the transfer, portal Primarily Melvin council And Trey. White Melvin

755
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:10,719
council is the heartbeat of this. TEAM i, mean he's unbelievably.

756
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,920
Fast he, plays you, know with that dog type energy

757
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,159
that you'll see a. Lot and Then Trey, white he's

758
00:36:17,199 --> 00:36:19,159
having the best year of his. CAREER i mean he's

759
00:36:19,159 --> 00:36:22,000
shooting upwards of forty percent from. Three he's only six

760
00:36:22,039 --> 00:36:24,760
to six, probably but he's got five double, doubles and

761
00:36:25,079 --> 00:36:27,760
he's not afraid to be in there with the. Trees

762
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:29,679
it seems like every other game he's got a bloody

763
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:31,960
nose in. There and they're just kind of embracing The

764
00:36:32,039 --> 00:36:35,840
kansas culture and the toughness that coach self has always

765
00:36:36,079 --> 00:36:38,360
wanted and has always had so much success. For SO

766
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:42,400
i do Think final four could be a ceiling for this.

767
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:45,360
TEAM a lot has to come. Together AND i honestly,

768
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:47,519
think even though we don't like talking until he gets

769
00:36:47,559 --> 00:36:50,480
closer To march about, seating my big thing is you

770
00:36:50,559 --> 00:36:52,519
got to get up to that to that three line

771
00:36:52,599 --> 00:36:54,400
if you, can Because kansas being on the four to,

772
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:56,199
FIVE i, mean you know how the tournament, is you

773
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:58,519
got four or. FIVE i mean your first game is

774
00:36:58,559 --> 00:37:00,320
hard and then your second game is against four or

775
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,079
five and then your next games against the, One, like

776
00:37:02,119 --> 00:37:04,480
you don't want, that so you want to try to

777
00:37:04,519 --> 00:37:06,480
get up to the two three. Line and as hard

778
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:09,159
As kansas schedule is moving forward and a lot of

779
00:37:09,159 --> 00:37:11,920
big twelve, teams it also is an opportunity to do

780
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,320
that and continue to build your. Resume so so we'll.

781
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:16,719
See but if everybody's able to stay, HEALTHY i love

782
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:18,079
What i've seen in the last couple of weeks in

783
00:37:18,119 --> 00:37:18,519
terms of a.

784
00:37:18,639 --> 00:37:22,920
Speaker 1: Ceiling, yeah we mentioned obviously the schedule and. Everything let's

785
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:24,760
go back a little bit THAT i always state game he,

786
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,119
Said trey White, man was he a special in that?

787
00:37:27,159 --> 00:37:29,480
Game nineteen, points those ten, rebounds like you, said one

788
00:37:29,519 --> 00:37:33,239
of those double doubles leading Obviously kansas in that. Game

789
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,440
and look that dude gets, hot he's. SCARED i was

790
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,440
watching him a. SHOOT i was, like if, look you

791
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:39,639
go back To Iowa state last, year when you think

792
00:37:39,679 --> 00:37:42,639
of the guys that they, Had i'm forgetting the guy

793
00:37:42,639 --> 00:37:45,599
that was lighting up from From. Jones, Trey, Yeah Curtis,

794
00:37:45,679 --> 00:37:47,960
Jones yeah, exactly you just took. It he reminds me of,

795
00:37:48,039 --> 00:37:50,519
That like when he gets, going he's a. Problem and

796
00:37:50,559 --> 00:37:52,440
Like Frank Fret, schulz says you better stop him because

797
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,639
if you, don't he's gonna punish you a. Lot and,

798
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:57,239
look it's not just offensively like you, mentioned he will

799
00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:59,239
go in there and being a guy of six five

800
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:03,039
sixty six bang download and grab, boards which look this,

801
00:38:03,119 --> 00:38:05,719
big The big twelve conference is so. Talented from your,

802
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,000
standpoint what do you observe because you just said schedule,

803
00:38:08,079 --> 00:38:10,000
right you're gonna PLAY. Byu do you go on the

804
00:38:10,039 --> 00:38:11,960
road to play number Eleven Texas tech and then you

805
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:13,599
know discheduled the rest of? All you Got Iowa state,

806
00:38:13,679 --> 00:38:16,280
Again houston at, home you go on the road to

807
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:19,599
number One. Arizona is this this conference is a lead

808
00:38:19,639 --> 00:38:20,039
from top to?

809
00:38:20,079 --> 00:38:23,760
Speaker 4: Bottom, oh it's. Brutal AND i Know arizona's got a

810
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,000
tough schedule this stretch. Too they gotta play you guys.

811
00:38:26,039 --> 00:38:29,239
Twice they got to play us. Twice and it's nice

812
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,360
being a good program LIKE ku AND by you have

813
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:33,440
because then you can you can have that mindset of,

814
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:34,880
yeah we have to play these, teams but they got

815
00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:38,400
to play, us. Right but that's the situation this next,

816
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,480
month and that's why those last four games that we

817
00:38:40,519 --> 00:38:42,519
talked about were so important FOR. K you just kind

818
00:38:42,519 --> 00:38:45,159
of getting back to where they need to be at

819
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:49,360
five and, two a respectable conference record at this. Point but,

820
00:38:49,679 --> 00:38:51,480
yeah it's kind of the one game at a time

821
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:54,440
mentality and knowing that it's not gonna be fun When

822
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:56,880
arizona comes to town or When houston comes to town

823
00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,519
And lubbock's become one of the tougher places to play

824
00:38:59,559 --> 00:39:02,280
and the conference and that'll be a quick turnaround FOR kyu.

825
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:04,920
Also but you know one other THING i want to

826
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,559
point out about the. Roster you Mentioned, white and he

827
00:39:07,599 --> 00:39:10,000
really has has been a dog and these guys in

828
00:39:09,679 --> 00:39:12,079
the portal because you Look kansas the last couple of,

829
00:39:12,119 --> 00:39:15,079
YEARS i, mean they missed on Aj store that didn't work,

830
00:39:15,079 --> 00:39:18,000
Out Ryley griffin didn't work, Out Nick kimberlake the year

831
00:39:18,039 --> 00:39:19,840
before that didn't work. Out they've had some, misses But

832
00:39:20,199 --> 00:39:23,280
counsel And, white those are the guys who have, really

833
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,840
LIKE i, said embraced the. Culture and the other thing

834
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:29,239
that Makes kansas ceiling getting to the final, four in my,

835
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:33,880
opinion Is Florie, badunga who's a guy who remember he

836
00:39:34,039 --> 00:39:37,519
went into the transfer portal briefly And kau essentially had

837
00:39:37,559 --> 00:39:41,360
to get him. Back he's a. Sophomore the whole chatter

838
00:39:41,519 --> 00:39:44,719
around here in the Offseason ron was the one two

839
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:47,960
punch Of Darren peterson And Floria bedonga and how the

840
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,039
non kink kind of went, on And kansas did have

841
00:39:50,079 --> 00:39:52,679
some great moments and won all three games In, vegas

842
00:39:52,719 --> 00:39:55,000
the players there and all. That the non kink kind

843
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,039
of went on as you had THE dp saga where

844
00:39:57,039 --> 00:39:59,719
he was in and out of the, lineup And flori

845
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:02,800
was was, okay had some good, moments but it was

846
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:05,400
a lot Of Melvin Council Trey white grinding out these

847
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,559
wins and a lot of good things in. That but

848
00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:10,639
the last couple of weeks you've still had counsel In.

849
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:14,639
White but then you've GOT, dp who's just an incredibly special,

850
00:40:14,679 --> 00:40:18,840
talent and we've seen that at, times and then all

851
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:21,039
of a, Sudden flory's coming. About he had twenty one

852
00:40:21,039 --> 00:40:23,519
to ten against K. State he doesn't have the whitest,

853
00:40:23,519 --> 00:40:26,440
body but he's very bouncy and he's a great rim.

854
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:30,440
Protector now this stat isn't taking into Account wilts because

855
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:32,280
it goes back to seventy four to seventy, five But

856
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:34,360
flory was the quickest to one hundred blocks in ku

857
00:40:34,519 --> 00:40:37,840
history since that was. Supported and he also has shown

858
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:40,519
the ability the last couple games to guard one through.

859
00:40:40,559 --> 00:40:43,440
FIVE i MEAN. Pj haggerty couldn't get by him K.

860
00:40:43,559 --> 00:40:45,639
STATE i mean he had that kind of ability to

861
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:49,760
KEEP pj down and not allow him anything, easy and

862
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:51,480
then when they do, shoot he's able to protect the.

863
00:40:51,559 --> 00:40:54,239
Rim so that's going to be, BIG i, think especially

864
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,960
tomorrow AGAINST, byu because you guys got a lot of,

865
00:40:57,039 --> 00:41:00,119
dudes and Certainly Rob wright was our absolute nightmare And

866
00:41:00,159 --> 00:41:03,159
waco last, Year oh they remember second. Half, Yeah i'm,

867
00:41:03,199 --> 00:41:06,480
Sure i'm sure and we remember. Too we had had

868
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,159
a lot of games that we want to forget in recent,

869
00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,000
years but he was a. Nightmare but, again you, know

870
00:41:12,079 --> 00:41:15,159
we're gonna switch a. Lot we have the. Guys i'm

871
00:41:15,199 --> 00:41:17,320
hoping for a big game From bryce And tiller because

872
00:41:17,320 --> 00:41:21,719
he's really, talented raw freshman that'll start at the, four

873
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,280
but you, know not quite as quick twitch as some

874
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:26,639
of those other. Guys but the ability to switch four

875
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:28,960
or five is. Big And flory The dune gets a

876
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:30,159
big reason Why kansas can do.

877
00:41:30,199 --> 00:41:32,559
Speaker 1: That, yeah you look At floria, obviously the, sixteen two

878
00:41:32,599 --> 00:41:35,280
hundred and thirty five. Pounder look their Big by is

879
00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,159
gonna go big is gonna be a great? Matchup is

880
00:41:37,199 --> 00:41:40,519
that the guy to GUARD? Aj, LOOK i know everybody's

881
00:41:40,519 --> 00:41:42,079
gonna be, like all, right A j And darren go

882
00:41:42,119 --> 00:41:43,639
out of which they guarded each other in high. School

883
00:41:43,639 --> 00:41:45,679
the last time they matched, UP i Think darren dropped

884
00:41:45,679 --> 00:41:48,000
fifty eight the buzzer beater in ajad forty. Nine that's

885
00:41:48,039 --> 00:41:50,559
not happening. TOMORROW i don't think guys are gonna go

886
00:41:50,639 --> 00:41:52,159
one on, one and if you, DO i think you're

887
00:41:52,159 --> 00:41:53,519
gonna lose the. GAME i don't think you can buy

888
00:41:53,519 --> 00:41:55,760
into THE nba narrative of let them go out of

889
00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:57,639
you have to play team. Basketball but Is florida that

890
00:41:57,679 --> 00:42:00,840
guy to to take, aj you, know to start the,

891
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:03,800
game just with how athletic he is in that size

892
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,320
and like you, said coming off with twenty one in ten, Performance.

893
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:09,880
Speaker 4: My gut would say. Yes But i'm worried about all

894
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:14,440
your guys because Because Caba keda is a. LOAD i,

895
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:16,960
mean he kind of reminds me around these parts of kJ,

896
00:42:17,039 --> 00:42:19,119
adams WHO i, know you guys, respond But caaba is even,

897
00:42:19,159 --> 00:42:22,239
bigger a better imp, protector and even stronger THAN kJ

898
00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:24,760
who who's just a freak athlete in his own. Right

899
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:28,960
BUT i could see just from a quickness, Standpoint flory

900
00:42:29,519 --> 00:42:33,760
being matched up initially WITH, aj and THEN, bt who

901
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:37,400
usually plays the, four would be matched up With, cada

902
00:42:37,639 --> 00:42:40,880
and Again tiller potentially getting in foul trouble would be

903
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,800
a concern because we don't go we don't go. DEEPER i,

904
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:45,880
Mean Trey white kind of plays the four at times and,

905
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:49,280
he's LIKE i, said only six, Six so that's gonna

906
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,360
be a big is a big deal is Can, kansas

907
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,840
too big stay out of foul? Trouble and they do

908
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,360
have the ability to, switch like, obviously if If AJ's got

909
00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:01,039
the ball And kansas is, Switching council is a really good.

910
00:43:01,039 --> 00:43:04,920
Defender and THEN dp obviously has linked as. Well but,

911
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,480
YEAH i, Mean i'm it's not just the big three

912
00:43:07,559 --> 00:43:11,239
that you look at that THAT'S scaryo WITH aj and

913
00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:14,239
And saunders and right It's jones hit five threes Or

914
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:18,880
davis rather hit five. Threes and then you Know CAD

915
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:20,760
i already mentioned is averaging nearly two blocks a.

916
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:21,719
Speaker 3: Game but But.

917
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:24,880
Speaker 4: Saunders has given me some nightmares, too So i'm interested

918
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:26,880
to see If kansas can can keep him off the.

919
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:28,960
Line the other thing that that you, know as you,

920
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,440
know is a rarity is Is by's Beating kansas the

921
00:43:31,519 --> 00:43:35,239
last two. Years and and our trip, our our beautiful

922
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:38,760
trip To provo And Salt Lake city last year was

923
00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,960
about as as rock bottom as this program has been

924
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,480
Since Coach selt has been. Here not just because you

925
00:43:44,519 --> 00:43:46,320
guys got us by thirty, four but then we went

926
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:49,880
To utah and. LOST i, mean and you can imagine

927
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:54,159
how how people here are feeling About kansas basketball listening To.

928
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:56,800
UTAH i, MEAN i don't want to be, disrespectful but

929
00:43:57,159 --> 00:44:00,840
what are we, doing. Guys so so it was definitely

930
00:44:01,679 --> 00:44:03,960
a trying, trip AND i know there was some some

931
00:44:04,119 --> 00:44:06,559
interesting locker rooms after, that and, kay you never could

932
00:44:06,639 --> 00:44:09,960
quite figure it. Out but but, YEAH i think there

933
00:44:10,039 --> 00:44:12,199
may be a little bit of revenge. Factor but at

934
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:14,119
the end of the, day it'll be all that in

935
00:44:14,159 --> 00:44:15,800
the pomp and circumstance of the game. Day it'll be

936
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:17,559
one in between the lines and and it should be

937
00:44:17,599 --> 00:44:18,000
an awesome.

938
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:21,199
Speaker 1: Game it should, be LIKE i, said students already, CAMPING

939
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:23,360
i was gonna be, loud. RAUCOUS i, mean that's the

940
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:25,400
environments you want to. Play and if You're Darren, peterson

941
00:44:26,079 --> 00:44:27,599
you got the home crowd this, time but going on

942
00:44:27,639 --> 00:44:29,880
the road in aj as, Well it's definitely gonna be a,

943
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,719
game no. Doubt yeah THAT i had never Seen bill,

944
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,199
self AND i mean you probably saw. It he cost

945
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:38,119
two timeouts in the first like six, minutes and he

946
00:44:38,559 --> 00:44:41,039
after the second one he put his hands behind his

947
00:44:41,079 --> 00:44:43,039
head and lean back and, Said, yep it's gonna Be i'm,

948
00:44:43,039 --> 00:44:45,199
like is he admitting to defeat this or and it.

949
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:45,599
Speaker 3: Was it.

950
00:44:45,639 --> 00:44:48,519
Speaker 1: Was it was defeated in the first like five minutes

951
00:44:48,559 --> 00:44:50,000
To so, WOW i don't Think i've ever seen a

952
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:53,000
college basketball game where the players and the coaches feel

953
00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:55,880
feel that pressure and like it's it's. Over like it

954
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:57,920
was over in the first five minutes of the.

955
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:02,039
Speaker 4: Game we actually had on The Jay Hark radio, network

956
00:45:02,079 --> 00:45:04,440
we had a coach who's no longer on staff come

957
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,960
on and he didn't say this on, air but he

958
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:10,719
had told one of my coworkers basically that we were

959
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:13,280
going to know in the first five minutes if it

960
00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:15,639
was going to be a blowout or if or if

961
00:45:15,639 --> 00:45:17,480
we were going to be able to hang and we

962
00:45:17,519 --> 00:45:20,119
did right. Away, no that it was not going to

963
00:45:20,159 --> 00:45:23,039
Go k's. Way but you, KNOW, k you last, year

964
00:45:23,199 --> 00:45:25,119
LIKE i, said they were the. Seven they've never been

965
00:45:25,119 --> 00:45:27,599
lower than a four before that since coach has been.

966
00:45:27,639 --> 00:45:30,440
Here but they didn't have the, ceiling which is silly

967
00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:32,840
because the last two YEARS kyu was preseason number. One

968
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:35,400
but you look at the roster and it's, like, well

969
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:39,599
why you, know Like Hunter dickinson obviously was a good

970
00:45:39,599 --> 00:45:41,639
player in terms of points and, rebounds but he was

971
00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:43,920
kind of. Slower And Dewan harris was a nice floor

972
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:48,920
general point, guard but he wasn't like these ridiculously talented

973
00:45:49,199 --> 00:45:52,119
guys that we're seeing in college basketball right. Now and

974
00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:54,320
and k, you LIKE i, said missed on some of

975
00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:57,480
those portal guys just didn't work out. Either but, yeah it.

976
00:45:57,519 --> 00:46:01,199
Was it was a rough three day stretch To utah

977
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:04,079
for Kau and and, honestly last year what did it FOR?

978
00:46:04,159 --> 00:46:06,360
Ku they had a Late january game at home Against.

979
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:07,920
HOUSTON i don't know if you, REMEMBER i.

980
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:08,519
Speaker 1: Do remember every.

981
00:46:08,519 --> 00:46:12,039
Speaker 4: One, YEAH i Mean kansas had a six point lead

982
00:46:12,079 --> 00:46:16,239
in regulation down the, stretch blew. It overtime. Happened then

983
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:18,639
you got a six point lead and you're shooting free

984
00:46:18,679 --> 00:46:21,920
throws a few seconds to, go and you blow that

985
00:46:22,119 --> 00:46:24,559
somehow and it's JUST i think that was something they

986
00:46:24,599 --> 00:46:27,639
never recovered. From but vibes are much better around here

987
00:46:27,679 --> 00:46:29,960
this year because you do have the guys who have

988
00:46:30,039 --> 00:46:33,480
kind of embraced the culture and and you know they're

989
00:46:33,519 --> 00:46:35,440
they're hoping to hoping to grind through this.

990
00:46:35,519 --> 00:46:38,239
Speaker 1: Thing here With Sean kellumer radio co host for the

997
00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:52,639
we have to end the. Show we're gonna have to

998
00:46:52,639 --> 00:46:55,119
bring you back later in the. Season ONE byu football

999
00:46:55,159 --> 00:46:57,440
definitely comes. Along how do you see this one play

1000
00:46:57,559 --> 00:47:00,159
OUT byu hasn't yet to get a quat one and

1001
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:02,119
went on the. ROAD i Know ag And rob are

1002
00:47:02,119 --> 00:47:05,000
coming off a nine and forty, performance but to go

1003
00:47:05,199 --> 00:47:07,519
to Beat kansas three times in a, row to go

1004
00:47:07,599 --> 00:47:09,760
back to back, trips to fall To, Lawrence kansas to

1005
00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:11,800
win and Fog Allen Field, HOUSE i feel like that's

1006
00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,280
a tough ass to have a team to, do especially

1007
00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:16,719
when you have a projected number one overall pick on the.

1008
00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:17,039
Speaker 3: Roster.

1009
00:47:18,159 --> 00:47:20,639
Speaker 4: Yep and we know that that's not something that's between the,

1010
00:47:20,679 --> 00:47:24,159
lines but it also is very, real right AND i

1011
00:47:24,239 --> 00:47:26,920
think that that may be a. FACTOR i think it

1012
00:47:27,039 --> 00:47:29,840
might be at least as a k. FAN ku fans

1013
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:31,199
are hoping it would be kind of one of Those

1014
00:47:31,199 --> 00:47:33,880
allen Field house games where you know down the stretch

1015
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:35,719
you're able to get that extra juice and get it.

1016
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:39,280
Done i'll tell, YOU i felt great About kansas Against Iowa.

1017
00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:40,280
State everybody THOUGHT i was.

1018
00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:41,199
Speaker 3: Crazy k was.

1019
00:47:41,199 --> 00:47:43,239
Speaker 4: One and two and Reeling Bill selsley in post game

1020
00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:45,559
In West. Virginia we suck right. NOW i just felt

1021
00:47:45,559 --> 00:47:47,760
like the guys would bounce back because that's how they've

1022
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:50,519
done it majority of Coach sell's, tenure and they went

1023
00:47:50,519 --> 00:47:53,320
out in. CLABDOM i felt good about the other three.

1024
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:55,920
Games this ONE i don't feel as good asbout AND

1025
00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:57,960
i think a lot of that is the talent Of.

1026
00:47:58,039 --> 00:48:02,559
Dyu and you, KNOW i Saw kansas was a small.

1027
00:48:02,639 --> 00:48:04,880
FAVORITE i think it's going to be even closer than.

1028
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:06,360
THAT i think it's going to be one of those

1029
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:10,039
down to the last one or two, possessions and like you,

1030
00:48:10,079 --> 00:48:12,840
said you, know we don't want it to be A

1031
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:16,679
peterson versus bonsa. Thing but hopefully college basketball, FANS nba,

1032
00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:19,800
fans whoever is tuning in can appreciate the greatness that

1033
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:23,280
both these guys have and enjoy. It AND i know

1034
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:25,599
that the message That i'm sure coach self And Coach

1035
00:48:25,679 --> 00:48:28,400
young have said, Is, hey this is a team. Effort

1036
00:48:28,639 --> 00:48:31,159
we got to do it. Together it's not just about all,

1037
00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:34,480
this but enjoy that. Show AND i think it'll come

1038
00:48:34,519 --> 00:48:36,599
down to the. WIRE i think it's important For kansas

1039
00:48:36,639 --> 00:48:40,119
to limit the three, ball whether It's saunders Or, wright

1040
00:48:40,159 --> 00:48:43,559
who hello is shooting forty three percent from, three Or

1041
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:46,079
davis as. Well that's always going to be. Key and

1042
00:48:46,119 --> 00:48:48,000
the other thing that scares me from a k fan

1043
00:48:48,039 --> 00:48:50,679
perspective IS byu cleans up the offensive. Glass that's Where

1044
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,960
kay has been susceptible this year. Too so can the

1045
00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:56,639
bigs of k you stay out of foul? Trouble can

1046
00:48:56,679 --> 00:48:59,159
they clean up the defensive? Rebounds that sort of. Thing

1047
00:48:59,199 --> 00:49:01,199
all that is going to be, Important but, yeah, man

1048
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:03,239
it should be should be an instant. CLASSIC i wish

1049
00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:04,800
we got you guys twice this. Year BECAUSE i know

1050
00:49:04,840 --> 00:49:05,480
the marryout then it.

1051
00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:07,519
Speaker 1: Would be just See i'm glad that you mentioned That

1052
00:49:07,559 --> 00:49:09,880
brett Or, martinia who to have a conversation needs to be.

1053
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:12,840
INVESTIGATED i want a thirty for? Thirty why is that not?

1054
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:14,840
Twice like, LOOK i know the winner of this is

1055
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:16,719
probably gonna be the number one draft. Pick let's just be,

1056
00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:19,360
honest but like, that do you feel that's just a

1057
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:21,920
criminal THAT byu And kansas when we get this matchup?

1058
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:22,159
Speaker 3: Once?

1059
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:25,199
Speaker 4: Absolutely AND i know they went from twenty to eighteen

1060
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:27,599
games and they want to KEEP ku With Case, state

1061
00:49:27,599 --> 00:49:29,679
Which i'm honestly we hate In. ZOO i could care

1062
00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,639
less about Facing Case Case state hates, us but but,

1063
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:34,920
uh you Know Massoo zoo is who we really. Hate

1064
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:37,760
but they want to keep those those teams. Together but,

1065
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,880
yeah even, SELF i remember said at some point during

1066
00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:43,519
the season last, year because In january or something last,

1067
00:49:43,559 --> 00:49:45,920
year talking about. Scheduling when, asked he, said you, know

1068
00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:47,920
what are the chances kind of, rhetorically what are the

1069
00:49:48,039 --> 00:49:50,519
chances That peters And debotay get each other twice next?

1070
00:49:50,559 --> 00:49:53,639
Year like assuming it would, happen because everybody assumed it

1071
00:49:53,679 --> 00:49:56,760
would happen because it's such a. Showcase but, yeah very.

1072
00:49:56,800 --> 00:50:00,920
Strange we GET i was staying Their arizona, twice which

1073
00:50:00,960 --> 00:50:04,199
is not exactly. FUN i know That arizona GETS us

1074
00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:06,559
and you guys, Twice SO i don't know who did

1075
00:50:06,639 --> 00:50:09,960
all that but only get three teams. Twice you still

1076
00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:12,239
think they could have probably made room on the schedule

1077
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:13,920
for one versus two a couple of.

1078
00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:14,960
Speaker 3: Times you definitely.

1079
00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:17,400
Speaker 1: Would someone In vegas is not doing anything. Right someone's

1080
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:21,039
not nice. Anyway but, look yeah you Gotta kansas limit

1081
00:50:21,079 --> 00:50:23,079
the old, boards don't get in foul. Trouble if YOUR

1082
00:50:23,079 --> 00:50:25,719
byu number twenty two last time hit a buzzer beater

1083
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:29,280
against AJ's, team it could happen. Again game day is.

1084
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:31,239
There you said they were setting up earlier when we

1085
00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:34,440
talked earlier this. Afternoon i'm excited for this, matchup and,

1086
00:50:34,519 --> 00:50:36,679
LOOK i think you would. Agree whoever wins this, game

1087
00:50:37,159 --> 00:50:38,599
this is going to determine who's the five or the

1088
00:50:38,639 --> 00:50:41,039
six and give full advantage in The big twelve standings

1089
00:50:41,039 --> 00:50:41,639
and going into the.

1090
00:50:41,639 --> 00:50:44,840
Speaker 4: Tournament, yeah that's going to be, important, right the tie,

1091
00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:47,079
breakers all that's. Important the seed that you get in

1092
00:50:47,119 --> 00:50:49,599
The big twelve, tournament all that, Matters and LIKE i

1093
00:50:49,639 --> 00:50:52,719
said in terms of THE ncaa, TOURNAMENT i Just i'm

1094
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:55,239
just Hopeful kansas is able to hop over the four

1095
00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:57,639
or five, line just because you know you're facing a

1096
00:50:57,639 --> 00:51:00,519
good team pretty much pretty much throughout they're all. Teams

1097
00:51:00,599 --> 00:51:02,800
but but, yeah if you can you can sneak up

1098
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:04,920
to a two or, three that'd be. Big and there's

1099
00:51:04,960 --> 00:51:07,159
only so many marquee games that you can really do.

1100
00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:10,480
That but, yeah it should be shaping up to be

1101
00:51:10,519 --> 00:51:13,480
in the one thousandth game At allen Field, house special

1102
00:51:13,559 --> 00:51:15,519
