00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:52.159
<v Speaker 3>And uh I just saw breaking news now with basketball

38
00:01:52.200 --> 00:01:53.000
<v Speaker 3>men's basketball.

39
00:01:54.159 --> 00:01:54.799
<v Speaker 2>I was walking in.

40
00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:57.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's it's not that big of the ah wait

41
00:01:57.200 --> 00:02:02.200
<v Speaker 3>for we well love because you don't never have anything. No, No,

42
00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:05.680
<v Speaker 3>it is actually Kevin and Caleb Love. Yeah, it's not.

43
00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:08.439
<v Speaker 3>It's not the measurement thing off, that's yeah. No, it's

44
00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:11.680
<v Speaker 3>just that we get talking about it now just because

45
00:02:11.719 --> 00:02:13.319
<v Speaker 3>and then we'll talk about it in breaking news again.

46
00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:18.000
<v Speaker 3>Carter's not going to be participating in and he was invited. No,

47
00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:20.479
<v Speaker 3>he's not gonna work out it gains in the combine.

48
00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:22.599
<v Speaker 3>I guess he's buying getting good news that he doesn't

49
00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:25.479
<v Speaker 3>need to. That's not good for Arizona. And Caleb Love

50
00:02:26.240 --> 00:02:28.800
<v Speaker 3>did not get invited. Yeah, it's not a shock.

51
00:02:29.240 --> 00:02:31.800
<v Speaker 2>No, we talked about that, I think throughout the season.

52
00:02:31.879 --> 00:02:35.599
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's funny. It's funny though I saw Bruce's synopsis.

53
00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:39.039
<v Speaker 3>I guess yesterday other Saturday where Caleb did great at

54
00:02:39.039 --> 00:02:41.080
<v Speaker 3>the measurables and the athletic.

55
00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:42.719
<v Speaker 2>That's anything shock you there.

56
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:46.919
<v Speaker 3>No, because he's fantastically gifted athletically. It's not about that

57
00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:50.479
<v Speaker 3>for him. And at the next level for him.

58
00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:53.240
<v Speaker 4>It's about the pace of play, the rhythm, the consistency,

59
00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:56.479
<v Speaker 4>and probably other things not too but I mean, if

60
00:02:56.479 --> 00:02:58.439
<v Speaker 4>you're if you have all the measurables in the world,

61
00:02:58.680 --> 00:02:59.479
<v Speaker 4>that doesn't mean you're.

62
00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:01.879
<v Speaker 2>Going to take it. No, And I've said this all along.

63
00:03:01.879 --> 00:03:04.560
<v Speaker 3>It's funny because I've said this example a number of

64
00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:07.520
<v Speaker 3>times having covered the long time wild Cats back in

65
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:11.039
<v Speaker 3>the day, and Richard Jefferson, one of my colleagues national colleagues,

66
00:03:12.039 --> 00:03:14.919
<v Speaker 3>was surprised that Richard decided to declare after his junior

67
00:03:14.960 --> 00:03:18.120
<v Speaker 3>year one, he didn't have great numbers. Twelve points a game,

68
00:03:18.479 --> 00:03:21.240
<v Speaker 3>maybe six rebounds a game, and blah blah blah. And

69
00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:23.120
<v Speaker 3>he was still, you know, could have used another year,

70
00:03:23.159 --> 00:03:26.280
<v Speaker 3>but he was obviously gifted and ready. And he says,

71
00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:29.199
<v Speaker 3>how can he go with his numbers? It's not about that,

72
00:03:29.240 --> 00:03:31.240
<v Speaker 3>It's not about numbers. It's funny when the guys take

73
00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:33.639
<v Speaker 3>their the stats and we do the interviews and they're

74
00:03:33.639 --> 00:03:36.400
<v Speaker 3>looking at the said, those stats mean nothing, no nothing,

75
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:39.039
<v Speaker 3>because if you're good enough, guess well, you play. If

76
00:03:39.080 --> 00:03:40.879
<v Speaker 3>you're not good enough, you won't play.

77
00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:43.919
<v Speaker 4>Peyton Watson, a freshman from UCLA a couple of years ago, average,

78
00:03:43.960 --> 00:03:46.439
<v Speaker 4>I think like six points off the band, playing in

79
00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:49.719
<v Speaker 4>minimum minutes. First round draft pick, twenty third overall. Is

80
00:03:49.759 --> 00:03:53.199
<v Speaker 4>that the kid that said, who's it? I think it's

81
00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:58.599
<v Speaker 4>Peyton Watson? Something Peyden. He's played for one year. He

82
00:03:58.639 --> 00:03:59.840
<v Speaker 4>was star guard.

83
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:01.639
<v Speaker 2>I love the way he played. It was very good.

84
00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:03.719
<v Speaker 4>He was very good, like he needed another year to

85
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:05.560
<v Speaker 4>you know, to explode. No, I love, but he was

86
00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:07.360
<v Speaker 4>the first round raft Yeah, yeah, no, no, I think he's

87
00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:08.560
<v Speaker 4>with Carolina or Charlotte.

88
00:04:08.599 --> 00:04:09.919
<v Speaker 2>I think right now some one of those.

89
00:04:10.039 --> 00:04:12.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you know, if you're good enough to play and

90
00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:14.400
<v Speaker 3>you've seen enough good and you know right away who's

91
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:17.199
<v Speaker 3>good enough, right, because you see the same things and

92
00:04:17.279 --> 00:04:20.519
<v Speaker 3>Caleb bless his heart. I mean, he was fantastic here

93
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:23.600
<v Speaker 3>when he was on. Uh, just there's something, there's something

94
00:04:23.600 --> 00:04:24.240
<v Speaker 3>that he's missing.

95
00:04:24.439 --> 00:04:27.480
<v Speaker 4>You can I don't know how to phrase it. You

96
00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:29.360
<v Speaker 4>can tell when a guy is an elite college guy,

97
00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:30.600
<v Speaker 4>a very good college guy.

98
00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:34.079
<v Speaker 2>Where you go. He's not an NBA guy, right, No, No,

99
00:04:34.240 --> 00:04:35.639
<v Speaker 2>he's not going to be an NBA. Sure.

100
00:04:36.040 --> 00:04:38.800
<v Speaker 3>I think the one curveball that we missed or we

101
00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:41.879
<v Speaker 3>totally missed TJ McConnell. Yeah, did you're thinking how does

102
00:04:41.920 --> 00:04:45.279
<v Speaker 3>that translate? And it's translated for ten years because he

103
00:04:45.319 --> 00:04:46.759
<v Speaker 3>does so many other things.

104
00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:50.319
<v Speaker 4>You can't replace somebody or you can't measure the intangibles

105
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:54.120
<v Speaker 4>to somebody that is head smart, high basketball IQ doesn't

106
00:04:54.120 --> 00:04:57.680
<v Speaker 4>commit stupid turnovers and mixed a steady voice on.

107
00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:00.439
<v Speaker 3>It and makes other people look good. Yeah, and works

108
00:05:00.439 --> 00:05:03.439
<v Speaker 3>his ass off. And not that Caleb doesn't. It's just

109
00:05:03.480 --> 00:05:08.360
<v Speaker 3>that Caleb has some asterisk asterisks that are kind of

110
00:05:08.439 --> 00:05:12.839
<v Speaker 3>undescribable in a number of different levels. Right, And maybe

111
00:05:12.839 --> 00:05:16.000
<v Speaker 3>he'll break through because all it takes is one and

112
00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:18.560
<v Speaker 3>and and hale. I wish I had his future because

113
00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:20.519
<v Speaker 3>he's gonna make a lot of money playing basketball somewhere.

114
00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:22.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean G League invite.

115
00:05:22.439 --> 00:05:25.639
<v Speaker 4>You know, you go through that route Europe, Europe, you

116
00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:28.959
<v Speaker 4>go to China, you know, somewhere overseas Italy, you can

117
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:29.639
<v Speaker 4>make a ton of money.

118
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:30.399
<v Speaker 2>Askkyl Fog.

119
00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:32.439
<v Speaker 4>He didn't make the NBA, and he made a ton

120
00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:36.399
<v Speaker 4>of money and that that million dollar bracket basketball.

121
00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:40.600
<v Speaker 3>And China, and China's building houses for under privilege. Yeah,

122
00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:43.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm not cancer. I can't be aware, but you know,

123
00:05:43.319 --> 00:05:46.480
<v Speaker 3>one of those guys a fantastic career. Yeah, so you know,

124
00:05:46.519 --> 00:05:49.639
<v Speaker 3>we'll see what happens with Caleb and Brian. I guess

125
00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:51.639
<v Speaker 3>he's not he's chosen not to. I just saw the

126
00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:54.519
<v Speaker 3>flash uh to participate, but he's going.

127
00:05:54.480 --> 00:05:54.879
<v Speaker 2>To be there.

128
00:05:55.480 --> 00:05:58.000
<v Speaker 4>Brian kind of reminds me in a way. And you

129
00:05:58.079 --> 00:06:00.759
<v Speaker 4>were there obviously I was too young to really remember fully,

130
00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:03.839
<v Speaker 4>but andre Iguodala was a guy that needed a lot

131
00:06:03.879 --> 00:06:07.560
<v Speaker 4>of development, six seven six, a guy that could handle

132
00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:10.120
<v Speaker 4>the ball, shoot when you needed him to, but wasn't

133
00:06:10.160 --> 00:06:13.079
<v Speaker 4>perfect offensively. And then the NBA he get you know,

134
00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:15.279
<v Speaker 4>you practice every day, you're with the right coaches, you're

135
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:18.639
<v Speaker 4>with the right people, and his career just shot up. Yeah,

136
00:06:18.839 --> 00:06:21.439
<v Speaker 4>and don't I don't know if anybody expected that back then,

137
00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:25.360
<v Speaker 4>but kind of similar, similar build, similar frame.

138
00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:28.759
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, I actually Brian's pretty better. And the funny

139
00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:30.759
<v Speaker 3>thing about it back then in two thousand and three,

140
00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:34.480
<v Speaker 3>I think it was Luke said. Luke Walton said if

141
00:06:34.879 --> 00:06:38.079
<v Speaker 3>if Andre would All was to stay four years, if

142
00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:40.000
<v Speaker 3>he were to stay four years, he would be the

143
00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:43.279
<v Speaker 3>best all time best it was at a basketball player

144
00:06:43.439 --> 00:06:47.519
<v Speaker 3>ever And he said that, and I was in that conversation,

145
00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:50.480
<v Speaker 3>and I think it really I'm thinking, well, yeah, probably

146
00:06:50.480 --> 00:06:52.279
<v Speaker 3>if he stayed four years, and he wasn't only here

147
00:06:52.319 --> 00:06:54.480
<v Speaker 3>for two. He was a thorn in Lut's side for

148
00:06:54.639 --> 00:06:57.279
<v Speaker 3>a couple of years, right, because he was just kind

149
00:06:57.279 --> 00:06:59.120
<v Speaker 3>of like the smartest guy in the room, even though

150
00:06:59.199 --> 00:07:02.720
<v Speaker 3>Luke was in the room. But he had a fantastic

151

00:09:06.399 --> 00:09:08.240
<v Speaker 3>And he would get into it with Geene Edi Christian

199
00:09:08.279 --> 00:09:10.919
<v Speaker 3>because Genie was the like, the like the father figure

200

<v Speaker 3>of the team, blah blah blah, and did get into

201
00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:15.279

202
00:09:15.279 --> 00:09:18.120
<v Speaker 3>but a thing crazy at a time where social media

203
00:09:18.200 --> 00:09:21.600
<v Speaker 3>didn't exist to the degree that he would say some

204
00:09:21.679 --> 00:09:24.080
<v Speaker 3>crazy stuff and then Luke would get on him and

205
00:09:24.200 --> 00:09:26.440
<v Speaker 3>get on us for you know, re quoting him and

206

<v Speaker 3>tell him not to say it.

207
00:09:29.799 --> 00:09:31.480

00:09:31.480 --> 00:09:31.559
<v Speaker 5>It.

209
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:32.840

212
00:09:38.519 --> 00:09:41.639
<v Speaker 3>kind of open it up, and that's what they're afraid of. Yeah,

213
00:09:41.759 --> 00:09:43.559
<v Speaker 3>you guys like that would just pop off and say

214
00:09:43.600 --> 00:09:44.480
<v Speaker 3>some crazy stuff.

215
00:09:44.679 --> 00:09:44.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

216
00:09:45.080 --> 00:09:47.519
<v Speaker 4>And you know, I can't imagine because I think it

00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:50.440
<v Speaker 4>was Jay on this radio show was sharing a story

<v Speaker 2>There was somebody else. Yeah, yeah, you can't do that.

223
00:10:02.080 --> 00:10:03.559
<v Speaker 3>No, no, I've done that a few times back in

<v Speaker 3>the day I went I went to senior year, so

225
00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:08.679
<v Speaker 3>I mean in my the senior year of Miles, all

226
00:10:08.720 --> 00:10:10.320
<v Speaker 3>these guys, I had them over to the house. Yeah,

<v Speaker 3>we played ping pong, We we cooked them dinner, My

228
00:10:13.240 --> 00:10:15.519
<v Speaker 3>wife and I, uh, and we could It was great.

229
00:10:15.559 --> 00:10:17.240
<v Speaker 3>Ben and Davis and all these guys and they were

230
00:10:17.279 --> 00:10:19.320
<v Speaker 3>just had a good time at the house and that's

231
00:10:19.320 --> 00:10:20.399
<v Speaker 3>when I got all my interviews.

232
00:10:21.159 --> 00:10:22.960
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, that ain't happening anymore.

233
00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:25.559
<v Speaker 4>And it happens a little with the national people, oh

234
00:10:25.600 --> 00:10:27.159
<v Speaker 4>for sure, when they come in and they spend a

235
00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:30.039
<v Speaker 4>couple of days, and especially ESPN or one of those

236
00:10:30.120 --> 00:10:32.240
<v Speaker 4>national brands. But here's the funny part of it. You

237
00:10:32.279 --> 00:10:35.200
<v Speaker 4>know what their stories are just the compilation of everybody else's. Yeah,

238
00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:37.720
<v Speaker 4>they just put them together. All the information, very basic. Yeah,

239
00:10:38.559 --> 00:10:40.240
<v Speaker 4>lets just get more time with it, unless you're doing

240
00:10:40.240 --> 00:10:42.360
<v Speaker 4>a documentary where you can really get into the grit

241
00:10:42.360 --> 00:10:42.799
<v Speaker 4>and grind.

242
00:10:42.960 --> 00:10:43.720
<v Speaker 2>It's Yeah.

243
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:45.879
<v Speaker 3>I was hoping to get Jason on the USA D

244
00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:47.879
<v Speaker 3>to talk him about, to talk to him about that

245
00:10:47.919 --> 00:10:49.799

248
00:10:55.879 --> 00:10:57.240
<v Speaker 3>maybe he's looking into it now.

249
00:10:57.320 --> 00:11:01.440
<v Speaker 4>In fairness to the side the office into Arizona in general,

250
00:11:01.960 --> 00:11:04.559
<v Speaker 4>a lot of that is also who's ahead of you

<v Speaker 3>Did you have a daughter graduate here?

388
00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:34.799
<v Speaker 13>Yes, had a daughter graduate from University of Colorado over

389
00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:37.880
<v Speaker 13>the past week, So that was a really cool event

390
00:17:37.920 --> 00:17:39.960
<v Speaker 13>for our family and got to have all you know,

391
00:17:40.000 --> 00:17:42.799
<v Speaker 13>my wife and kids together and our grandmas were there,

392
00:17:42.839 --> 00:17:43.920
<v Speaker 13>and it was a great event.

393
00:17:44.400 --> 00:17:47.680
<v Speaker 4>Was a great time, right, Nice being able to get

394
00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:50.240
<v Speaker 4>away from football, because you guys are just wrapping up

395
00:17:50.279 --> 00:17:52.839
<v Speaker 4>screen football. You've had all these transfers come in, you've

396
00:17:52.839 --> 00:17:55.680
<v Speaker 4>had recruits coming on campus. Just being able to get

397
00:17:55.680 --> 00:17:58.279
<v Speaker 4>away for just a short little bit, how does that

398
00:17:58.279 --> 00:18:01.839
<v Speaker 4>feel on how you know, just refresh yourself from what

399
00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:04.559
<v Speaker 4>is now? It seems like a never ending job being

400
00:18:04.559 --> 00:18:07.680
<v Speaker 4>a football coach or a college coach nowadays.

401
00:18:08.039 --> 00:18:11.039
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, I wouldn't say that trip was a refreshing time.

402
00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:13.759
<v Speaker 13>You know, hectic time, right and with like screaming at

403
00:18:13.759 --> 00:18:15.480
<v Speaker 13>each other, you know, you get the family back together,

404
00:18:15.519 --> 00:18:18.839
<v Speaker 13>everybody falls back into their old you know, dinner reservations

405
00:18:18.920 --> 00:18:22.440
<v Speaker 13>and all that kind of thing. But no, I think

406
00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:26.960
<v Speaker 13>your college college football has gotten crazy that way, and it's, uh,

407
00:18:28.759 --> 00:18:31.119
<v Speaker 13>it seems to never end. And that's okay because we

408
00:18:31.160 --> 00:18:33.079
<v Speaker 13>love what we do and we and we love what

409
00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:35.599
<v Speaker 13>we're building here at Arizona and so we're all here

410
00:18:35.599 --> 00:18:36.039
<v Speaker 13>for the fight.

411
00:18:36.440 --> 00:18:38.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no question. Let me ask you.

412
00:18:38.279 --> 00:18:40.759
<v Speaker 3>I covered Dictomy from eighty seven to ninety and then

413
00:18:40.799 --> 00:18:42.599
<v Speaker 3>I started coming loop for all this time that he

414
00:18:42.720 --> 00:18:45.000
<v Speaker 3>was here. Uh, and then you have a lot of

415
00:18:45.279 --> 00:18:49.400
<v Speaker 3>dictomy traits. Of course, are you a different coach today

416
00:18:49.720 --> 00:18:50.839
<v Speaker 3>than you were a year ago?

417
00:18:52.839 --> 00:18:55.759
<v Speaker 13>Well, I think absolutely. I think anytime you take over

418
00:18:55.799 --> 00:18:58.039
<v Speaker 13>a new job, there's going to be moments of learning,

419
00:18:58.079 --> 00:18:59.920
<v Speaker 13>and obviously there are lots of tough learning moments for

420
00:19:00.119 --> 00:19:02.079
<v Speaker 13>us over the last calendar year. But I also feel

421
00:19:02.079 --> 00:19:04.680
<v Speaker 13>great about the progress we've made. I feel great about

422
00:19:04.720 --> 00:19:07.000
<v Speaker 13>where our players are at and where our coaching staff

423
00:19:07.079 --> 00:19:10.240
<v Speaker 13>is at, and I'm excited and optimistic about the future here.

424
00:19:11.079 --> 00:19:13.559
<v Speaker 4>You know, throughout this spring one of the themes that

425
00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:16.799
<v Speaker 4>not only you talked about, but coach day he talked

426
00:19:16.839 --> 00:19:20.680
<v Speaker 4>about as well, was obviously the leadership ability of no

427
00:19:20.799 --> 00:19:23.480
<v Speaker 4>Fafida and how is the guy in the locker room

428
00:19:23.480 --> 00:19:27.319
<v Speaker 4>that everybody looks to, but also challenging Noah in terms

429
00:19:27.319 --> 00:19:29.160
<v Speaker 4>of being more of a vocal leader on the field,

430
00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:32.200
<v Speaker 4>being a little bit more vocal. How do you think

431
00:19:32.240 --> 00:19:34.920
<v Speaker 4>he met that challenge this spring, because it seemed like

432
00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:38.039
<v Speaker 4>he was growing from beginning to end of this spring practice.

433
00:19:39.359 --> 00:19:39.400
<v Speaker 2>No.

434
00:19:39.519 --> 00:19:41.480
<v Speaker 13>I think Noah's made great strides that way, you know,

435
00:19:41.559 --> 00:19:43.960
<v Speaker 13>on the field, with his leadership, with his voice, And

436
00:19:44.039 --> 00:19:45.799
<v Speaker 13>I think that's one of those things that you know

437
00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:49.640
<v Speaker 13>sometimes for guys, it's just, you know, everybody's personality is different,

438
00:19:50.000 --> 00:19:53.440
<v Speaker 13>and everybody has to lead in their authentic way, otherwise

439
00:19:53.480 --> 00:19:56.480
<v Speaker 13>everyone thinks they're full of it, right, And so Noah

440
00:19:56.519 --> 00:19:59.440
<v Speaker 13>finding that voice and really pushing the team. You started

441
00:19:59.440 --> 00:20:02.240
<v Speaker 13>to see those moments happened this spring where it wasn't

442
00:20:02.240 --> 00:20:04.480
<v Speaker 13>Coach Daggy or me stepped in the huddle, nos like

443
00:20:04.519 --> 00:20:06.680
<v Speaker 13>I got it and we would start a series or

444
00:20:06.680 --> 00:20:08.720
<v Speaker 13>start a drive. And so it's been really fun to

445
00:20:08.720 --> 00:20:11.160
<v Speaker 13>see that part of him really developed. And I'm excited

446
00:20:11.160 --> 00:20:12.319
<v Speaker 13>about what you guys are going to see in the

447
00:20:12.359 --> 00:20:13.759
<v Speaker 13>fall when we start playing real football.

448
00:20:13.880 --> 00:20:14.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's no question.

449
00:20:15.039 --> 00:20:17.839
<v Speaker 3>It's funny because I was at the Spring Game Spring

450
00:20:17.839 --> 00:20:21.240
<v Speaker 3>Showcase and you guys all wax poetics so highly unknown

451
00:20:21.279 --> 00:20:23.640
<v Speaker 3>and that's not new, right, But for me it was

452
00:20:23.680 --> 00:20:25.960
<v Speaker 3>like I've never and I've covered a lot of games here,

453
00:20:26.039 --> 00:20:29.079
<v Speaker 3>thirty seven years of games and events and teams, you

454
00:20:29.119 --> 00:20:32.559
<v Speaker 3>guys wax poetic on him like crazy. And I'm thinking

455
00:20:32.599 --> 00:20:34.920
<v Speaker 3>to myself while you guys were talking, I'm thinking, I

456
00:20:34.920 --> 00:20:37.759
<v Speaker 3>can't remember Luke doing this or Dick Tomy on a

457
00:20:37.799 --> 00:20:42.400
<v Speaker 3>specific player so highly. Can you maybe remember someone like

458
00:20:42.440 --> 00:20:45.000
<v Speaker 3>that where you says, this kid has it and it's

459
00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:48.160
<v Speaker 3>it's something that's maybe from the family and from the field.

460
00:20:50.079 --> 00:20:51.119
<v Speaker 2>No well, I think.

461
00:20:51.039 --> 00:20:54.039
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, I mean who Noah Flafida is definitely starts at

462
00:20:54.039 --> 00:20:56.680
<v Speaker 13>home with his incredible parents, you know, Less and Winona,

463
00:20:57.200 --> 00:21:00.319
<v Speaker 13>great parents, and I think, you know, you see that

464
00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:03.200
<v Speaker 13>translates into how he interacts and how he communicates with people.

465
00:21:03.559 --> 00:21:06.279
<v Speaker 13>It's really really a special thing. I think one of

466
00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:08.960
<v Speaker 13>the reasons we feel so strongly with Noah is because

467
00:21:08.960 --> 00:21:10.759
<v Speaker 13>Noah is one of those kids. It is a high

468
00:21:10.759 --> 00:21:13.799
<v Speaker 13>profile player that has had a certain level of success here,

469
00:21:14.079 --> 00:21:17.519
<v Speaker 13>who continues to choose to be loyal, chooses to stay

470
00:21:17.559 --> 00:21:20.599
<v Speaker 13>at Arizona because he loves Tucson. He loves the University

471
00:21:20.680 --> 00:21:23.240
<v Speaker 13>of Arizona, he loves his teammates, he loves his coaches,

472
00:21:23.279 --> 00:21:25.359
<v Speaker 13>he loves where he's at and what he's doing. And

473
00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:27.839
<v Speaker 13>I think that's one of those reasons that we're so appreciative,

474
00:21:28.119 --> 00:21:31.559
<v Speaker 13>appreciative of him and how he carries himself is because

475
00:21:31.599 --> 00:21:33.559
<v Speaker 13>he is one of those players that in today's day

476
00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:36.119
<v Speaker 13>and age, you know, you don't see as many guys

477
00:21:36.200 --> 00:21:38.599
<v Speaker 13>making that choice that Noah Flapita makes every year.

478
00:21:39.839 --> 00:21:41.799
<v Speaker 4>You know, there is a lot of coaching changes for

479
00:21:41.839 --> 00:21:44.759
<v Speaker 4>you guys this year, bringing in Seth Day, you return

480
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:48.160
<v Speaker 4>dannigan ZoZ but promote him to the defensive coordinator. You

481
00:21:48.200 --> 00:21:52.599
<v Speaker 4>have coach Nivar, coach Joe Salavea as well, And we

482
00:21:52.680 --> 00:21:55.319
<v Speaker 4>mentioned this with coach dannigan Zaz when we had him

483
00:21:55.359 --> 00:21:58.680
<v Speaker 4>on last week. The relationship that him and Dagi have

484
00:21:58.799 --> 00:22:01.559
<v Speaker 4>built together, it's very interesting. You don't see it a

485
00:22:01.640 --> 00:22:06.039
<v Speaker 4>lot from offenses and defense coordinators, just the level of

486
00:22:06.599 --> 00:22:09.839
<v Speaker 4>admiration for one another. Can you just talk about that

487
00:22:09.880 --> 00:22:13.440
<v Speaker 4>and how you've been able to see coach Daghi do

488
00:22:13.559 --> 00:22:15.759
<v Speaker 4>what he does here and kind of develop as a

489
00:22:15.799 --> 00:22:19.519
<v Speaker 4>coach in this new coaching staff as he's the first

490
00:22:19.599 --> 00:22:20.559
<v Speaker 4>year offense coordinator.

491
00:22:22.119 --> 00:22:24.799
<v Speaker 13>Well, I think on you know, every coaching staff, you know,

492
00:22:24.880 --> 00:22:27.319
<v Speaker 13>everybody's always trying to push each other, always trying to

493
00:22:27.400 --> 00:22:29.559
<v Speaker 13>challenge each other. But it's also important that you are

494
00:22:29.599 --> 00:22:31.839
<v Speaker 13>respectful of each other. And I think that's one of

495
00:22:31.839 --> 00:22:35.440
<v Speaker 13>those things with coach Gonzalez, with coach Dagi, they both

496
00:22:35.440 --> 00:22:37.559
<v Speaker 13>have a super high level of respect for each other.

497
00:22:37.799 --> 00:22:39.720
<v Speaker 13>Now that doesn't mean every day in practice they're not

498
00:22:39.759 --> 00:22:41.720
<v Speaker 13>trying to rip the other guy's throat out because they are,

499
00:22:42.359 --> 00:22:45.759
<v Speaker 13>you know what I mean. But it's competitive as hell

500
00:22:45.799 --> 00:22:48.559
<v Speaker 13>and it's dead ass serious. But those guys are also

501
00:22:48.640 --> 00:22:52.160
<v Speaker 13>respective of what they're seeing from how each other side

502
00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:55.880
<v Speaker 13>is coming together and how the offense is growing and

503
00:22:55.880 --> 00:22:57.519
<v Speaker 13>starting to move with the football, or the days where

504
00:22:57.559 --> 00:23:00.079
<v Speaker 13>the defense dominates and controls a line of scrimmage and

505
00:23:00.319 --> 00:23:02.559
<v Speaker 13>you know, the offense can't move it, and so they're

506
00:23:02.559 --> 00:23:05.160
<v Speaker 13>respectful of each other. I think that's healthy because they

507
00:23:05.200 --> 00:23:08.200
<v Speaker 13>also have a great communication about like, hey, you're giving

508
00:23:08.200 --> 00:23:10.880
<v Speaker 13>this away with how you motion this or how you

509
00:23:10.920 --> 00:23:13.799
<v Speaker 13>formation this, or you're given this away by the rotation

510
00:23:13.839 --> 00:23:16.039
<v Speaker 13>of the safety. You know, do you guys know that?

511
00:23:16.200 --> 00:23:18.240
<v Speaker 13>Or is that guy making a mistake. So I think

512
00:23:18.240 --> 00:23:20.960
<v Speaker 13>the communication is healthy because it gives us a chance

513
00:23:20.960 --> 00:23:23.519
<v Speaker 13>to move forward as a team and it's not us

514
00:23:23.519 --> 00:23:26.440
<v Speaker 13>against them or you know, offense versus defense. We're all

515
00:23:26.440 --> 00:23:28.720
<v Speaker 13>in this thing together and we're all moving the same way.

516
00:23:28.839 --> 00:23:31.559
<v Speaker 3>Well that's how teams get better, right, You competing against

517
00:23:31.559 --> 00:23:33.839
<v Speaker 3>each other daily daily, it's like you and your brothers.

518
00:23:33.880 --> 00:23:35.480
<v Speaker 3>Probably you don't each one of you guys want to

519
00:23:35.559 --> 00:23:37.400
<v Speaker 3>kick each other ass but at the end of the day,

520
00:23:37.440 --> 00:23:38.240
<v Speaker 3>have dinner together.

521
00:23:39.680 --> 00:23:41.920
<v Speaker 13>That's right, That's exactly right. Yeah, yeah, there's nothing more

522
00:23:41.960 --> 00:23:44.720
<v Speaker 13>fierce than this in a backyard basketball game back in

523
00:23:44.759 --> 00:23:48.920
<v Speaker 13>the day between Brad Brennan and I. But but yeah, no,

524
00:23:49.200 --> 00:23:51.519
<v Speaker 13>I think that's important, and I think it's also healthy

525
00:23:51.559 --> 00:23:53.599
<v Speaker 13>for the staff. Right, there has to be that, you know,

526
00:23:53.640 --> 00:23:56.119
<v Speaker 13>the football competition, the intensity of the work you do

527
00:23:56.160 --> 00:23:58.319
<v Speaker 13>when you're on the field has to be high level,

528
00:23:58.559 --> 00:24:01.880
<v Speaker 13>and it has to be everybody outbsolutely committed to their role,

529
00:24:01.960 --> 00:24:03.319
<v Speaker 13>their side of the ball, their job.

530
00:24:03.920 --> 00:24:04.119
<v Speaker 2>Right.

531
00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:05.759
<v Speaker 13>But at the end of the day, it's about all

532
00:24:05.799 --> 00:24:08.519
<v Speaker 13>of us making progress, and we know that we have

533
00:24:08.559 --> 00:24:10.160
<v Speaker 13>to play good and all to play well in all

534
00:24:10.160 --> 00:24:12.319
<v Speaker 13>three phases to make the move in the Big twelve

535
00:24:12.319 --> 00:24:13.279
<v Speaker 13>conference we want to make.

536
00:24:14.119 --> 00:24:16.279
<v Speaker 4>So coach I wanted to bring up I think it's

537
00:24:16.319 --> 00:24:17.880
<v Speaker 4>a little bit less than a month away. You're going

538
00:24:17.920 --> 00:24:22.200
<v Speaker 4>to be having your summer camps seven on seven prospect

539
00:24:22.240 --> 00:24:25.519
<v Speaker 4>camp and a big man O line versus D line camp.

540
00:24:25.759 --> 00:24:27.920
<v Speaker 4>Can you talk a little bit about that and how

541
00:24:27.960 --> 00:24:30.440
<v Speaker 4>has the sign up been for that with local high

542
00:24:30.440 --> 00:24:33.000
<v Speaker 4>schools and high schools. Is it across the country or

543
00:24:33.079 --> 00:24:34.680
<v Speaker 4>just here locally in Arizona.

544
00:24:36.400 --> 00:24:38.759
<v Speaker 13>Well, so like the prospect camp will have kids from

545
00:24:38.759 --> 00:24:40.920
<v Speaker 13>all over the country, and you know that part of

546
00:24:40.960 --> 00:24:44.000
<v Speaker 13>it is just you know, it's camp season.

547
00:24:44.279 --> 00:24:44.440
<v Speaker 2>Right.

548
00:24:44.440 --> 00:24:46.799
<v Speaker 13>The month of June, you know, used to be such

549
00:24:46.799 --> 00:24:50.359
<v Speaker 13>a kind of a you know, get ready for fall

550
00:24:50.440 --> 00:24:55.160
<v Speaker 13>camp kind of digest the spring recruiting period that you know,

551
00:24:55.440 --> 00:24:59.039
<v Speaker 13>like detail your scripts and everything for for fall camp.

552
00:24:59.359 --> 00:25:02.359
<v Speaker 13>But now it has become you know, there's you get

553
00:25:02.400 --> 00:25:04.000
<v Speaker 13>to work out with you get to get on the

554
00:25:04.039 --> 00:25:06.519
<v Speaker 13>field with your players a little bit. Right, you have

555
00:25:06.599 --> 00:25:09.839
<v Speaker 13>official visit recruiting weekends, and you have camp. So it's

556
00:25:09.839 --> 00:25:12.799
<v Speaker 13>a chaotic month, it really is. It's one of the

557
00:25:12.839 --> 00:25:15.039
<v Speaker 13>busiest months of the year that we're not actually playing

558
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:18.279
<v Speaker 13>football in and so when we go through those prospect camps,

559
00:25:18.279 --> 00:25:20.160
<v Speaker 13>so there are great opportunities for us to valuate. You know,

560
00:25:20.240 --> 00:25:22.400
<v Speaker 13>lots of times when we get a chance, we might

561
00:25:22.440 --> 00:25:24.279
<v Speaker 13>look at a film of a kid or go watch

562
00:25:24.319 --> 00:25:27.440
<v Speaker 13>him practice or watch him play, but we want to

563
00:25:27.480 --> 00:25:30.039
<v Speaker 13>coach him and see how he responds to coaching. Does

564
00:25:30.079 --> 00:25:33.920
<v Speaker 13>he listen, is it important to him? Is he busting

565
00:25:33.960 --> 00:25:36.400
<v Speaker 13>his tail into drill work or is he kind of

566
00:25:36.440 --> 00:25:39.240
<v Speaker 13>going cool guy and not putting forth the effort, you know,

567
00:25:39.359 --> 00:25:41.119
<v Speaker 13>like we're not looking for cool guys. We're looking for

568
00:25:41.119 --> 00:25:43.319
<v Speaker 13>badass football players and love the work and love the

569
00:25:43.319 --> 00:25:45.759
<v Speaker 13>grind and want to be great, you know what I mean.

570
00:25:46.200 --> 00:25:48.839
<v Speaker 13>So trying to identify some of that stuff, you know,

571
00:25:48.920 --> 00:25:52.759
<v Speaker 13>as we're recruiting young people through the camp process, and

572
00:25:52.799 --> 00:25:54.799
<v Speaker 13>so we'll have camps here and then the seven on

573
00:25:54.880 --> 00:25:57.599
<v Speaker 13>seven things. Those are always good evaluations for us, you know,

574
00:25:57.680 --> 00:26:01.480
<v Speaker 13>especially for the skill positions quarterbacks, receivers, running back, DB's

575
00:26:01.519 --> 00:26:04.119
<v Speaker 13>tight ends, all those, all those people. But those are

576
00:26:04.160 --> 00:26:05.799
<v Speaker 13>really highly competitive because we ate a lot of the

577
00:26:05.799 --> 00:26:09.240
<v Speaker 13>best teams from the state of Arizona to attend those, uh,

578
00:26:09.319 --> 00:26:11.640
<v Speaker 13>to attend the seven or seven tournaments. So those are

579
00:26:11.680 --> 00:26:12.720
<v Speaker 13>a lot of fun for us.

580
00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:15.200
<v Speaker 3>I'm curious because I haven't really talked to you one

581
00:26:15.200 --> 00:26:17.400
<v Speaker 3>on one much. We had you on when you first

582
00:26:17.400 --> 00:26:20.559
<v Speaker 3>got your got your own, got your job, When did

583
00:26:20.599 --> 00:26:23.640
<v Speaker 3>you see yourself being a head coach and when did

584
00:26:23.680 --> 00:26:25.359
<v Speaker 3>that dream start?

585
00:26:27.839 --> 00:26:31.680
<v Speaker 13>You know, it's funny. I think, uh, that's a great question.

586
00:26:32.119 --> 00:26:32.240
<v Speaker 4>You know.

587
00:26:32.400 --> 00:26:34.720
<v Speaker 13>I think everybody thinks they can do the job better

588
00:26:34.720 --> 00:26:37.559
<v Speaker 13>than the guy that's doing it. Sure, and and I

589
00:26:37.599 --> 00:26:40.000
<v Speaker 13>would say as an assistant coach, I'm sure I was

590
00:26:40.000 --> 00:26:43.960
<v Speaker 13>guilty of that at certain times. But I was really

591
00:26:44.000 --> 00:26:46.319
<v Speaker 13>fortunate because I did get to work for good head coaches.

592
00:26:46.319 --> 00:26:47.640
<v Speaker 13>I got to work for Dick Tom and I got

593
00:26:47.640 --> 00:26:49.400
<v Speaker 13>to work for Rich Ellerson. I got to work for,

594
00:26:49.960 --> 00:26:52.160
<v Speaker 13>you know, Mike Riley and Mike mcintar. I got to

595
00:26:52.200 --> 00:26:55.240
<v Speaker 13>be around for coaches, and every opportunity that you're you

596
00:26:55.279 --> 00:26:57.519
<v Speaker 13>have like that you're learning kind of ways that you

597
00:26:57.559 --> 00:27:00.160
<v Speaker 13>would and ways that you would not do it. So

598
00:27:00.440 --> 00:27:02.599
<v Speaker 13>there was so much I was so fortunate that I

599
00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:05.039
<v Speaker 13>got to be around all these head coaches that had

600
00:27:05.119 --> 00:27:09.119
<v Speaker 13>so much experience, you know, you coach Riley, you know,

601
00:27:09.200 --> 00:27:11.039
<v Speaker 13>coach calling me. Like, those guys have been head coaches

602
00:27:11.079 --> 00:27:13.480
<v Speaker 13>forever and on a bunch of different levels and a

603
00:27:13.519 --> 00:27:16.599
<v Speaker 13>bunch of different different places, and so I just really

604
00:27:16.680 --> 00:27:18.839
<v Speaker 13>valued the time that I was with them, And as

605
00:27:18.880 --> 00:27:21.000
<v Speaker 13>I was going through it, I was, you know, there's

606
00:27:21.039 --> 00:27:22.559
<v Speaker 13>part of me that I was like, I wonder if

607
00:27:22.599 --> 00:27:24.880
<v Speaker 13>that will ever happen for me. But then at the

608
00:27:24.920 --> 00:27:27.720
<v Speaker 13>same time, I also thought it would be an incredible

609
00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:32.920
<v Speaker 13>opportunity because I think, uh, you know, my personality loving

610
00:27:32.960 --> 00:27:35.440
<v Speaker 13>being around people, loving you know, focusing on the development

611
00:27:35.480 --> 00:27:38.079
<v Speaker 13>a young man, loving the focus, focusing on kind of

612
00:27:38.119 --> 00:27:40.559
<v Speaker 13>the community and the engagement on that level, and then

613
00:27:40.640 --> 00:27:44.000
<v Speaker 13>also being really really highly competitive. I wanted to see

614
00:27:44.000 --> 00:27:46.839
<v Speaker 13>what that what we could build when I got that opportunity.

615
00:27:47.200 --> 00:27:48.880
<v Speaker 13>So I would say early in my career I started

616
00:27:48.880 --> 00:27:50.039
<v Speaker 13>thinking about being a head coach.

617
00:27:50.440 --> 00:27:52.720
<v Speaker 4>So did someone have to convince you to do that?

618
00:27:52.839 --> 00:27:55.039
<v Speaker 4>You know, says hey, I think you have the qualities

619
00:27:55.039 --> 00:27:57.319
<v Speaker 4>of being a head coach. You should you should pursue

620
00:27:57.359 --> 00:27:57.880
<v Speaker 4>that job.

621
00:27:59.720 --> 00:28:03.759
<v Speaker 13>No, no, not at all. It was you know, when

622
00:28:03.799 --> 00:28:06.880
<v Speaker 13>the San Jose State. I had interviewed for a head

623
00:28:06.920 --> 00:28:10.519
<v Speaker 13>coaching job at cal Poly god like forever ago, like

624
00:28:11.039 --> 00:28:15.079
<v Speaker 13>twenty eighteen years ago, and I didn't get it, and

625
00:28:15.119 --> 00:28:18.000
<v Speaker 13>then you know, it was probably a decade later something

626
00:28:18.039 --> 00:28:20.720
<v Speaker 13>like that that the San Jose State called, and so

627
00:28:21.079 --> 00:28:23.559
<v Speaker 13>I was excited about the opportunity. You know, the places

628
00:28:23.559 --> 00:28:25.160
<v Speaker 13>that I had been or the places that I that

629
00:28:25.240 --> 00:28:28.079
<v Speaker 13>I believe in San Jose State was one of them,

630
00:28:28.079 --> 00:28:29.680
<v Speaker 13>because I had to stretch in my career there where

631
00:28:29.720 --> 00:28:32.480
<v Speaker 13>I thought we could build a consistent winning football program there.

632
00:28:32.519 --> 00:28:35.480
<v Speaker 13>And then also University of Arizona. Right, I know, I'd

633
00:28:35.480 --> 00:28:38.119
<v Speaker 13>coach against and played against great teams here in the past,

634
00:28:38.160 --> 00:28:40.720
<v Speaker 13>I'd seen them have all kinds of success and kind

635
00:28:40.759 --> 00:28:41.960
<v Speaker 13>of be all over the place, and so I was

636
00:28:42.000 --> 00:28:44.200
<v Speaker 13>excited about the challenge and the opportunity of coming to

637
00:28:44.200 --> 00:28:44.559
<v Speaker 13>the u of A.

638
00:28:47.200 --> 00:28:48.440
<v Speaker 2>This recruiting season.

639
00:28:48.480 --> 00:28:50.839
<v Speaker 4>It seems like it could be setting up for a

640
00:28:50.880 --> 00:28:53.839
<v Speaker 4>special recruiting class for you guys after the first recruiting

641
00:28:53.839 --> 00:28:57.559
<v Speaker 4>class somewhere in you know that twenty thirty range of

642
00:28:57.680 --> 00:28:59.400
<v Speaker 4>you believe in the rankings and stuff like that. As

643
00:28:59.440 --> 00:29:01.559
<v Speaker 4>a person that that works for rivals, I have to

644
00:29:01.599 --> 00:29:04.400
<v Speaker 4>say that kind of stuff. But just what is what

645
00:29:04.440 --> 00:29:07.559
<v Speaker 4>has been the feedback you've been getting from recruits after

646
00:29:07.599 --> 00:29:11.640
<v Speaker 4>the first season, but still keeping them interested in Arizona

647
00:29:11.680 --> 00:29:14.039
<v Speaker 4>and seeing the development and seeing the progress that you

648
00:29:14.039 --> 00:29:16.160
<v Speaker 4>guys are making and where your vision is.

649
00:29:17.880 --> 00:29:20.720
<v Speaker 13>I think that's been really positive. You know, I'm excited

650
00:29:20.720 --> 00:29:23.079
<v Speaker 13>about where we're at with this recruiting class. I think,

651
00:29:23.119 --> 00:29:25.400
<v Speaker 13>you know, as we go through the next month and

652
00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:27.440
<v Speaker 13>a half, where it's going to have to start to

653
00:29:27.480 --> 00:29:29.000
<v Speaker 13>have a little bit more clarity. Now none of it

654
00:29:29.039 --> 00:29:31.400
<v Speaker 13>matters still signing day, right, I mean that's one of

655
00:29:31.440 --> 00:29:34.359
<v Speaker 13>the weird things, right. You recruit players in May and

656
00:29:34.440 --> 00:29:37.200
<v Speaker 13>June and they commit or they don't. But if they commit,

657
00:29:37.759 --> 00:29:41.240
<v Speaker 13>then you know, they don't sign until December, right till

658
00:29:41.279 --> 00:29:43.599
<v Speaker 13>the beginning of December, so there's you know, four and

659
00:29:43.640 --> 00:29:47.640
<v Speaker 13>a half months there where you're continuing to recruit them,

660
00:29:47.640 --> 00:29:50.519
<v Speaker 13>continue to build that relationship, you know, trying to make

661
00:29:50.519 --> 00:29:52.839
<v Speaker 13>sure that you know, since they are committed, that they

662
00:29:52.880 --> 00:29:55.000
<v Speaker 13>stay with that commitment. I think it's going to be

663
00:29:55.039 --> 00:29:57.640
<v Speaker 13>really interesting. You know, hopefully the settlement goes through with

664
00:29:57.720 --> 00:30:00.799
<v Speaker 13>the the you know, the how settlement, and we'll be

665
00:30:00.799 --> 00:30:02.279
<v Speaker 13>able to have a little bit more clarity of what

666
00:30:02.319 --> 00:30:04.839
<v Speaker 13>college football is going to look like for everybody. I

667
00:30:04.839 --> 00:30:07.400
<v Speaker 13>think one of those things where you know, all those

668
00:30:07.400 --> 00:30:10.359
<v Speaker 13>things have not been the same program to program, and

669
00:30:10.359 --> 00:30:12.160
<v Speaker 13>hoping that would give us a little more consistency and

670
00:30:12.200 --> 00:30:15.480
<v Speaker 13>a little bit more you know, parodying college football. I

671
00:30:15.480 --> 00:30:18.000
<v Speaker 13>think that would be really really valuable and that everyone

672
00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:21.200
<v Speaker 13>you know is playing with the same you know, with

673
00:30:21.279 --> 00:30:23.720
<v Speaker 13>the same deck. And so I think it's going to

674
00:30:23.759 --> 00:30:25.759
<v Speaker 13>be exciting to see what transpires in the next week

675
00:30:25.839 --> 00:30:28.200
<v Speaker 13>or so, you know, with the house settlement, because I

676
00:30:28.200 --> 00:30:30.200
<v Speaker 13>think that's really also going to impact recruiting in a

677
00:30:30.240 --> 00:30:31.039
<v Speaker 13>significant way.

678
00:30:31.640 --> 00:30:36.119
<v Speaker 3>What would today's Brent Brennan tell the Brent Brennan of

679
00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:41.440
<v Speaker 3>nineteen ninety whatever. Maybe the eighteen year old kid.

680
00:30:42.480 --> 00:30:46.039
<v Speaker 13>Oh gosh, I told you, I told you this is

681
00:30:46.039 --> 00:30:46.759
<v Speaker 13>white rangings.

682
00:30:47.799 --> 00:30:50.720
<v Speaker 2>But go to class.

683
00:30:51.680 --> 00:30:53.000
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, go to class.

684
00:30:53.880 --> 00:30:53.960
<v Speaker 1>No.

685
00:30:54.079 --> 00:30:54.920
<v Speaker 2>I think.

686
00:30:56.559 --> 00:30:58.559
<v Speaker 13>You know. Football has been so good to me, and

687
00:30:58.599 --> 00:31:01.759
<v Speaker 13>I loved it when I played. I love the camaraderie

688
00:31:01.839 --> 00:31:04.079
<v Speaker 13>of it. I love the brotherhood of it. I love

689
00:31:04.160 --> 00:31:07.319
<v Speaker 13>the works, the grind of it, you know, I love

690
00:31:07.480 --> 00:31:10.440
<v Speaker 13>kind of the schematic and kind of the cerebral part

691
00:31:10.519 --> 00:31:13.359
<v Speaker 13>of it. And I don't think you know that that

692
00:31:13.480 --> 00:31:15.359
<v Speaker 13>ever eighteen year old, nineteen year old kid would have

693
00:31:15.400 --> 00:31:17.720
<v Speaker 13>ever thought that football would have taken me just on

694
00:31:17.880 --> 00:31:22.559
<v Speaker 13>this incredible life journey for friends, family, wins, losses, up

695
00:31:22.599 --> 00:31:25.960
<v Speaker 13>to down, highs lows, all these incredible, you know, incredible

696
00:31:25.960 --> 00:31:28.640
<v Speaker 13>moments and these incredible challenges to find ways to overcome.

697
00:31:28.960 --> 00:31:31.400
<v Speaker 13>So I'm incredibly grateful to the game of football. And

698
00:31:31.920 --> 00:31:33.680
<v Speaker 13>I love coming to work every day. I love coming

699
00:31:33.720 --> 00:31:35.240
<v Speaker 13>to work with the players and the people we have

700
00:31:35.279 --> 00:31:37.440
<v Speaker 13>in this building here at Arizona, and I love where

701
00:31:37.440 --> 00:31:37.920
<v Speaker 13>we're headed.

702
00:31:38.759 --> 00:31:42.160
<v Speaker 3>How let me ask you this, how frustrated or I

703
00:31:42.160 --> 00:31:43.880
<v Speaker 3>don't want to put a word in your mouth, was

704
00:31:43.960 --> 00:31:46.359
<v Speaker 3>last year for you? And did you have to maybe

705
00:31:46.359 --> 00:31:50.079
<v Speaker 3>find your Interdictomy or whomever Ellerson to kind of say Okay,

706
00:31:50.200 --> 00:31:51.680
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to get through this and everything's going to

707
00:31:51.759 --> 00:31:52.160
<v Speaker 3>be okay.

708
00:31:53.799 --> 00:31:56.480
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, Oh my gosh, yeah, Yesterda's the last year was

709
00:31:56.480 --> 00:32:00.359
<v Speaker 13>incredibly frustrating. I mean, it was miserable for just just

710
00:32:00.400 --> 00:32:03.799
<v Speaker 13>that that was so challenging. Yeah, you know, and for

711
00:32:03.880 --> 00:32:05.680
<v Speaker 13>more than anything, I felt for the players and for

712
00:32:05.759 --> 00:32:08.519
<v Speaker 13>our fans, because everybody was disappointed, you know what I mean.

713
00:32:08.559 --> 00:32:10.839
<v Speaker 13>And so the biggest thing when you're in a situation

714
00:32:11.000 --> 00:32:14.720
<v Speaker 13>like that is, all right, what's broken, you know, and

715
00:32:14.759 --> 00:32:15.640
<v Speaker 13>how are we going to fix it?

716
00:32:15.799 --> 00:32:16.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

717
00:32:16.200 --> 00:32:18.880
<v Speaker 13>And you know what things are we doing to make

718
00:32:18.880 --> 00:32:22.279
<v Speaker 13>this thing better and and improve the issues that we had?

719
00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:24.200
<v Speaker 13>And I feel like we've made a lot of strides there.

720
00:32:24.240 --> 00:32:25.680
<v Speaker 13>I feel like we're in a great spot with our

721
00:32:25.680 --> 00:32:28.160
<v Speaker 13>coaching staff and the decisions and and the things that

722
00:32:28.200 --> 00:32:30.440
<v Speaker 13>we chose to do there. And I feel good about

723
00:32:30.480 --> 00:32:32.720
<v Speaker 13>the pieces that we've been able to retain of our

724
00:32:32.759 --> 00:32:34.839
<v Speaker 13>own roster and the pieces that we've been able to

725
00:32:34.880 --> 00:32:37.400
<v Speaker 13>acquire through the transfer portal. And so I think you're

726
00:32:37.440 --> 00:32:39.839
<v Speaker 13>always building a football team. It doesn't it never stops.

727
00:32:39.839 --> 00:32:42.960
<v Speaker 13>There's no like pause button on that. And I think

728
00:32:43.079 --> 00:32:45.799
<v Speaker 13>every day we continue to make good progress towards building

729
00:32:45.960 --> 00:32:47.599
<v Speaker 13>the kind of program that we can all be proud

730
00:32:47.599 --> 00:32:48.200
<v Speaker 13>of it. Arizona.

731
00:32:48.839 --> 00:32:51.359
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, let me, we had your running back who wasn't

732
00:32:51.359 --> 00:32:53.000
<v Speaker 3>eligible last year. I think we had the right before

733
00:32:53.039 --> 00:32:56.759
<v Speaker 3>the draft, and I've said this openly that how you

734
00:32:56.839 --> 00:32:58.920
<v Speaker 3>had him the season would have been totally different. I'm

735
00:32:58.920 --> 00:33:00.680
<v Speaker 3>sure you may or mean not feel that way, but

736
00:33:00.920 --> 00:33:04.599
<v Speaker 3>a lot of people just when that happened, I'm thinking, God,

737
00:33:04.640 --> 00:33:05.559
<v Speaker 3>that's a huge blow.

738
00:33:07.599 --> 00:33:10.119
<v Speaker 13>Absolutely, that was a really tough situation. And you know

739
00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:13.359
<v Speaker 13>what's so great about that young man, Corey, is it

740
00:33:13.839 --> 00:33:16.279
<v Speaker 13>he's still got drafted. Yeah, and he's still going to

741
00:33:16.319 --> 00:33:18.480
<v Speaker 13>get a chance of being an NFL football player. And

742
00:33:18.559 --> 00:33:20.720
<v Speaker 13>I think that is just really special because every day

743
00:33:20.720 --> 00:33:23.640
<v Speaker 13>that young man showed up for work, he busted his ass.

744
00:33:23.799 --> 00:33:26.039
<v Speaker 13>He ran down on the Scout kickoff team, he played

745
00:33:26.039 --> 00:33:28.480
<v Speaker 13>Scout running back, he played Scout team dB. If we

746
00:33:28.519 --> 00:33:31.200
<v Speaker 13>needed him, he did whatever it took. He just kept playing.

747
00:33:31.240 --> 00:33:33.400
<v Speaker 13>He loved being here, he loved being around the team.

748
00:33:33.960 --> 00:33:35.799
<v Speaker 13>You know, the University of Arizona was great to him,

749
00:33:35.799 --> 00:33:38.279
<v Speaker 13>and his experience here was really positive. So he kept

750
00:33:38.319 --> 00:33:40.440
<v Speaker 13>showing up and giving to the team. I thought that

751
00:33:40.480 --> 00:33:43.160
<v Speaker 13>was just it's a great ending to that story in

752
00:33:43.279 --> 00:33:45.960
<v Speaker 13>terms of him getting drafted even without playing his last year.

753
00:33:46.960 --> 00:33:49.160
<v Speaker 4>Coach, not a lot of people in Tucson, I think,

754
00:33:49.319 --> 00:33:53.039
<v Speaker 4>know that you are a big barbecue guy, and a

755
00:33:53.039 --> 00:33:55.559
<v Speaker 4>lot of the coaches on the coaching staff had said, oh,

756
00:33:55.599 --> 00:33:59.920
<v Speaker 4>he's a pitmaster type of barbecue guy. Coach Navar, I know,

757
00:34:00.119 --> 00:34:02.599
<v Speaker 4>is a big barbecue guy as well. Who would you

758
00:34:02.680 --> 00:34:06.160
<v Speaker 4>say is the best barbecue guy or barbecue coach on

759
00:34:06.200 --> 00:34:06.599
<v Speaker 4>the team?

760
00:34:08.320 --> 00:34:10.079
<v Speaker 13>Oh? Shoot, that's a good question because I have not

761
00:34:10.159 --> 00:34:13.559
<v Speaker 13>coached with coach and Ivory yet and I know he's serious.

762
00:34:14.039 --> 00:34:17.639
<v Speaker 13>It's funny, you know, my a few years ago, my

763
00:34:17.760 --> 00:34:19.960
<v Speaker 13>son told my wife that when I became a head coach,

764
00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:25.039
<v Speaker 13>I lost the spirit of barbecue because you just didn't.

765
00:34:25.039 --> 00:34:27.239
<v Speaker 13>I didn't have him as much time for it anymore.

766
00:34:27.920 --> 00:34:29.840
<v Speaker 13>When I was an assistant coach, I used to barbecue

767
00:34:29.840 --> 00:34:32.440
<v Speaker 13>for the players all the time, which was just really fun.

768
00:34:32.440 --> 00:34:34.079
<v Speaker 13>It was great to get the guys around the house

769
00:34:34.119 --> 00:34:36.519
<v Speaker 13>and you know, just have a good meal, and I

770
00:34:36.519 --> 00:34:38.039
<v Speaker 13>want to make sure the food was good. So I

771
00:34:38.079 --> 00:34:41.079
<v Speaker 13>worked really hard at it. But you know, I got

772
00:34:41.119 --> 00:34:42.360
<v Speaker 13>to spend all the time with coach and Iver and

773
00:34:42.440 --> 00:34:45.159
<v Speaker 13>find out, you know, what his what his go to

774
00:34:45.280 --> 00:34:47.639
<v Speaker 13>move is. But it is a fun way to bring

775
00:34:47.679 --> 00:34:50.719
<v Speaker 13>people together. And as long as the food's good, people players,

776
00:34:51.079 --> 00:34:52.920
<v Speaker 13>everybody will show up. And so you got to make

777
00:34:52.920 --> 00:34:53.960
<v Speaker 13>sure you know what you're doing.

778
00:34:54.480 --> 00:34:57.039
<v Speaker 4>As a barbecue guy myself, because I used to work

779
00:34:57.039 --> 00:34:59.199
<v Speaker 4>at a barbecue place and I also have my own

780
00:34:59.559 --> 00:35:03.000
<v Speaker 4>smoker at the house. Would you be willing And again

781
00:35:03.039 --> 00:35:04.559
<v Speaker 4>you said you have not a lot of time on

782
00:35:04.599 --> 00:35:04.920
<v Speaker 4>your hands.

<v Speaker 13>President, Yeah, let's go. Yeah, we're talking about here.

784
00:35:13.599 --> 00:35:16.320

00:35:16.400 --> 00:35:19.679
<v Speaker 4>you know it's thirteen sixteen hours smoke. But that's up

896
00:40:31.800 --> 00:40:33.199
<v Speaker 2>I'll have it on all the time, but once it

897
00:40:33.239 --> 00:40:34.599
<v Speaker 2>goes up. That was good. That's fun.

898
00:40:35.079 --> 00:40:37.159
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to be doing a magazine story on him

899
00:40:37.239 --> 00:40:39.960
<v Speaker 3>here in the fall, So I just kind of wanted

900
00:40:40.000 --> 00:40:42.079
<v Speaker 3>to talk to him about, you know, about life, because

901
00:40:42.079 --> 00:40:44.960
<v Speaker 3>it's it's more about life and football.

902
00:40:45.320 --> 00:40:48.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and you know, everybody knows okay, he's the football

903
00:40:48.440 --> 00:40:51.119
<v Speaker 4>coach Texas, and but they don't know the coaches, they

904
00:40:51.119 --> 00:40:52.360
<v Speaker 4>don't know the staff.

905
00:40:52.599 --> 00:40:54.199
<v Speaker 2>We don't get for them.

906
00:40:54.360 --> 00:40:56.360
<v Speaker 3>Not enough time to meet with those guys and say,

907
00:40:56.360 --> 00:40:58.159
<v Speaker 3>you know, you know how you doing and you bought

908
00:40:58.239 --> 00:40:59.800
<v Speaker 3>we bought up or you guys brought it up. And

909
00:40:59.800 --> 00:41:04.159
<v Speaker 3>I asked the question about the daughter being Colorado and

910
00:41:04.199 --> 00:41:07.519
<v Speaker 3>graduating and they do have lives right outside of work.

911
00:41:08.000 --> 00:41:11.559
<v Speaker 4>Family dynamics of getting everybody's scheduled to go and dinner

912
00:41:11.599 --> 00:41:13.280
<v Speaker 4>plans here nobody thinks about that stuff.

913
00:41:13.519 --> 00:41:16.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah no, and then you know how it is, Oh family,

914
00:41:16.280 --> 00:41:20.440
<v Speaker 3>what great family, and it's chaotic for everybody. It's just

915
00:41:20.480 --> 00:41:22.280
<v Speaker 3>like Thanksgiving for everybody.

916
00:41:22.760 --> 00:41:25.000
<v Speaker 2>You're ready to eat? No, mom, I'm not hungry right now,

917
00:41:25.360 --> 00:41:29.440
<v Speaker 2>and go sit at the small table. Thanks when's the

918
00:41:29.960 --> 00:41:30.360
<v Speaker 2>and all?

919
00:41:30.559 --> 00:41:35.360
<v Speaker 4>When you were at the Citizen and at the Star

920
00:41:35.960 --> 00:41:39.079
<v Speaker 4>during that Thanksgiving time, when do you remember a time

921
00:41:39.079 --> 00:41:41.400
<v Speaker 4>where you were able to have a normal Thanksgiving?

922
00:41:41.519 --> 00:41:41.599
<v Speaker 1>No?

923
00:41:41.840 --> 00:41:45.639
<v Speaker 3>Not never, never, in funny, never, very rare because I

924
00:41:45.679 --> 00:41:47.760
<v Speaker 3>was on the road in the game most of the time.

925
00:41:47.920 --> 00:41:51.079
<v Speaker 3>And I remember nineteen eighty nine, eighty eight, I was

926
00:41:51.159 --> 00:41:56.559
<v Speaker 3>dating nineteen ninety maybe my Thanksgiving dinner was spaghetti, spaghetti.

927
00:41:56.559 --> 00:41:59.199
<v Speaker 3>I had to cook spaghetti and that was my dinner.

928
00:41:59.239 --> 00:42:01.239
<v Speaker 3>You know, I talk about all the time because we're

929
00:42:01.280 --> 00:42:03.039
<v Speaker 3>on the road all the time right right, And Bruce

930
00:42:03.159 --> 00:42:05.559
<v Speaker 3>is living it now. When we were on the road,

931
00:42:05.599 --> 00:42:07.119
<v Speaker 3>him and I would get together every now and again,

932
00:42:07.159 --> 00:42:10.400
<v Speaker 3>but it was always doing something. For the ninety seven

933
00:42:10.519 --> 00:42:14.480
<v Speaker 3>Final four and they had won that Friday, that Saturday, right,

934
00:42:14.519 --> 00:42:17.599
<v Speaker 3>and then Monday was a championship game. That Sunday was Easter.

935
00:42:18.159 --> 00:42:22.199
<v Speaker 3>So I guess where our our Easter dinner was? Are

936
00:42:22.719 --> 00:42:24.599
<v Speaker 3>collectively all the sports writers some.

937
00:42:24.559 --> 00:42:28.599
<v Speaker 4>Of the sports writers at some restaurants because it was.

938
00:42:28.559 --> 00:42:30.760
<v Speaker 3>The only thing opened at nine o'clock where we were

939
00:42:30.800 --> 00:42:34.000
<v Speaker 3>all done. Yeah, you know, it was packed obviously because

940
00:42:34.000 --> 00:42:36.679
<v Speaker 3>it's you know, a huge fantast but we had finally

941
00:42:36.760 --> 00:42:38.920
<v Speaker 3>done writing all day or writing.

942
00:42:38.880 --> 00:42:40.400
<v Speaker 2>And what's open? Hooters?

943
00:42:40.519 --> 00:42:45.440
<v Speaker 4>So we went to Hooters. Yes, yes, but that's just

944
00:42:45.480 --> 00:42:48.199
<v Speaker 4>the way life is. I mean, even now, how I

945
00:42:48.239 --> 00:42:50.559
<v Speaker 4>live my life is it's'm a fast food dude, because

946
00:42:51.440 --> 00:42:53.480
<v Speaker 4>this how I lived my life for thirty five years,

947
00:42:53.480 --> 00:42:55.400
<v Speaker 4>you know, the last like I want to say, five

948
00:42:55.519 --> 00:42:59.559
<v Speaker 4>six Thanksgivings. I've always heard, Oh, how was your things doing?

949
00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:00.599
<v Speaker 13>Yeah?

950
00:43:00.639 --> 00:43:02.360
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean I had dinner at the family later,

951
00:43:02.400 --> 00:43:04.280
<v Speaker 4>but yeah, it was good. What do you mean you were, Well,

952
00:43:04.280 --> 00:43:06.119
<v Speaker 4>you're covering a game or you're watching a game where

953
00:43:06.159 --> 00:43:10.280
<v Speaker 4>you're watching something covering something because there's the women's basketball

954
00:43:10.760 --> 00:43:13.519
<v Speaker 4>non conference tournaments are happening during that time, and the

955
00:43:13.559 --> 00:43:16.960
<v Speaker 4>men's basketball and non conference tournaments or somewhere are happening

956
00:43:17.000 --> 00:43:19.119
<v Speaker 4>at that time most likely, and you know what the

957
00:43:19.199 --> 00:43:21.719
<v Speaker 4>championship game is usually Thanksgiving Day.

958
00:43:22.199 --> 00:43:23.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, we're always working.

959
00:43:23.960 --> 00:43:26.639
<v Speaker 3>We were at covering the team in probably in New

960
00:43:26.719 --> 00:43:29.159
<v Speaker 3>York for the NIT preseason, and it was like that

961
00:43:29.760 --> 00:43:31.840
<v Speaker 3>down we're to have the parades and all that stuff,

962
00:43:31.840 --> 00:43:34.440
<v Speaker 3>the floats, and we were right there on Central right

963
00:43:34.440 --> 00:43:37.800
<v Speaker 3>there in Manhattan. It's crazy and the people massive, and

964
00:43:37.840 --> 00:43:39.840
<v Speaker 3>if you were outside, you wouldn't get back into your

965
00:43:39.920 --> 00:43:42.039
<v Speaker 3>room for four or five hours because there was so

966
00:43:42.079 --> 00:43:44.159
<v Speaker 3>many people there. So you just stayed in your room,

967
00:43:44.199 --> 00:43:46.760
<v Speaker 3>got room service, and watched it from the hotel. It

968
00:43:46.840 --> 00:43:47.760
<v Speaker 3>was just that busy.

969
00:43:47.800 --> 00:43:48.199
<v Speaker 2>It's funny.

970
00:43:48.239 --> 00:43:50.840
<v Speaker 3>I did a column about that, speaking of ninety seven

971
00:43:51.039 --> 00:43:52.719
<v Speaker 3>where we ate a Hooters and there was you know,

972
00:43:52.760 --> 00:43:54.320
<v Speaker 3>twelve hour days, blah blah blah.

973
00:43:54.360 --> 00:43:57.039
<v Speaker 2>And one of the one of the.

974
00:43:56.559 --> 00:44:00.159
<v Speaker 3>Fans or whoever sent the letter to the Edter Steve

975
00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:03.079
<v Speaker 3>stopped your complaining. People would love to do what you

976
00:44:03.239 --> 00:44:06.360
<v Speaker 3>do and and go to games for a living, and

977
00:44:06.719 --> 00:44:09.239
<v Speaker 3>you know that's not work. You know, roofing in Tucson

978
00:44:09.360 --> 00:44:12.800
<v Speaker 3>and July is is work. That wasn't my point. That

979
00:44:12.840 --> 00:44:14.960
<v Speaker 3>wasn't my point. I understand all that and this is

980
00:44:14.960 --> 00:44:18.079
<v Speaker 3>what I wanted to do all my life. That wasn't

981
00:44:18.079 --> 00:44:20.280
<v Speaker 3>my point. My point is it's not as glamorous as

982
00:44:20.280 --> 00:44:20.920
<v Speaker 3>you think it is.

983
00:44:21.039 --> 00:44:24.519
<v Speaker 4>No, and then yes, that sounds great, But then those

984
00:44:24.519 --> 00:44:26.360
<v Speaker 4>people that write you that or say that, oh you

985
00:44:26.400 --> 00:44:28.599
<v Speaker 4>don't work and dah da da da da, then they.

986
00:44:28.480 --> 00:44:31.679
<v Speaker 2>Do it for oh this things. Yeah yeah, well yeah,

987
00:44:31.920 --> 00:44:33.159
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not trying to Are you.

988
00:44:33.199 --> 00:44:35.960
<v Speaker 4>Less of that said? Are you less of a people

989
00:44:36.000 --> 00:44:37.639
<v Speaker 4>know that I'm not a sports fan like they used

990
00:44:37.639 --> 00:44:40.000
<v Speaker 4>to do. Are you less of a sports fan for college?

991
00:44:40.000 --> 00:44:40.440
<v Speaker 2>At least?

992
00:44:40.599 --> 00:44:44.239
<v Speaker 4>Because I cover college sports for pros I can be

993
00:44:44.280 --> 00:44:46.079
<v Speaker 4>a fan like I don't cover pro sports. So like

994
00:44:46.119 --> 00:44:49.559
<v Speaker 4>I'm a huge linebacked Sons and Bronco fan. But now

995
00:44:49.599 --> 00:44:51.079
<v Speaker 4>I grew up here in Tucson. I was a huge

996
00:44:51.199 --> 00:44:54.599
<v Speaker 4>u of a Wildcat fan. Not as much, No, no one.

997
00:44:54.679 --> 00:44:56.480
<v Speaker 4>You have to be unbiased. I do believe in that.

998
00:44:56.800 --> 00:44:59.119
<v Speaker 2>And sure you know how I am. I am definitely.

999
00:44:58.800 --> 00:45:02.000
<v Speaker 4>And I believe my coverage in my writing is very unbiased.

1000
00:45:02.039 --> 00:45:07.519
<v Speaker 4>And I'm fair to both sides too. You see how

1001
00:45:07.599 --> 00:45:10.679
<v Speaker 4>everything is put together now you know how the pie

1002
00:45:10.760 --> 00:45:13.239
<v Speaker 4>is now again, I think it's a lot better than

1003
00:45:13.239 --> 00:45:16.079
<v Speaker 4>when I first got here in terms of covering.

1004
00:45:16.280 --> 00:45:17.719
<v Speaker 2>There wasn't an athletics.

1005
00:45:17.760 --> 00:45:20.719
<v Speaker 4>But you meet a lot of great people and you

1006
00:45:20.760 --> 00:45:23.280
<v Speaker 4>meet sometimes yeah, some great people along the way, Sue.

1007
00:45:23.440 --> 00:45:25.360
<v Speaker 4>The good thing is it's like eighty twenty, if not

1008
00:45:25.400 --> 00:45:28.559
<v Speaker 4>maybe nineteen ten. Yeah, yeah, but you do remember the ten?

1009
00:45:29.119 --> 00:45:31.280
<v Speaker 4>Do you remember the ten and you remember the top

1010
00:45:31.440 --> 00:45:34.239
<v Speaker 4>of that ninety? Yeah, Like coach Andrea, I will always

1011
00:45:34.239 --> 00:45:36.719
<v Speaker 4>be appreciative for I got to cover his last four years.

1012
00:45:36.760 --> 00:45:39.159
<v Speaker 2>And you learn a lot from coaches like that.

1013
00:45:39.360 --> 00:45:44.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Andy Lopez, Andrea, all these people, Rubios. The funny

1014
00:45:44.960 --> 00:45:46.920
<v Speaker 3>thing about it is I could write back in the

1015
00:45:46.960 --> 00:45:49.199
<v Speaker 3>day when I wrote a lot in every day. I'm

1016
00:45:49.199 --> 00:45:51.719
<v Speaker 3>sure Bruce does too. We're got a call, okay, I'll

00:46:08.559 --> 00:46:12.280
<v Speaker 16>being construction. I hate watching those do it yourself for shows.

<v Speaker 16>Yeah you know what I mean. You know how to

1025
00:46:14.280 --> 00:46:17.639
<v Speaker 16>do it people? Yeah, I mean most of it. But

1026
00:46:17.840 --> 00:46:19.719
<v Speaker 16>you know, because it's different parts of the country. We

1027
00:46:19.800 --> 00:46:22.920
<v Speaker 16>do things different. But yeah, they're so boring to me

1028
00:46:23.000 --> 00:46:24.159
<v Speaker 16>and I just turn it off.

1029
00:46:24.679 --> 00:46:26.880

1031
00:46:29.239 --> 00:46:31.599
<v Speaker 3>we'd go to dinner this says, oh h can we

1032
00:46:31.639 --> 00:46:35.000
<v Speaker 3>talk and my wife would be like enough enough.

1033
00:46:35.039 --> 00:46:38.079
<v Speaker 2>We don't need to hear about basketball time. You know that?

1034
00:46:38.320 --> 00:46:40.480
<v Speaker 4>And that's how move was you excuse me?

1040
00:46:56.320 --> 00:46:59.719
<v Speaker 16>good about Chicago. I'm not a bullstand, but the Cubs are.

1041
00:47:00.199 --> 00:47:02.840
<v Speaker 16>They're doing good. They just needed a little help. And

1042
00:47:02.960 --> 00:47:06.239
<v Speaker 16>I think my Cubs are doing way better than Jay's team.

1043
00:47:06.119 --> 00:47:09.519
<v Speaker 2>Than the Dodgers. Are they close?

1044
00:47:10.400 --> 00:47:13.400
<v Speaker 16>Well yeah, but remember they're in a little bit better division.

1045
00:47:13.440 --> 00:47:16.480
<v Speaker 16>I get that the Dodgers, but if they don't have show,

1046
00:47:16.559 --> 00:47:20.440
<v Speaker 16>he's to turn it really up because he's not gonna

1047
00:47:20.440 --> 00:47:21.880
<v Speaker 16>have a season like last year.

1048
00:47:22.679 --> 00:47:25.760
<v Speaker 3>So Howard, I have to take a dig at you.

1049
00:47:25.800 --> 00:47:32.920
<v Speaker 3>How the Sun's doing.

1050
00:47:32.159 --> 00:47:35.400
<v Speaker 16>All we can say, Hey, at least Boston is going

1051
00:47:35.440 --> 00:47:35.920
<v Speaker 16>to be out of it.

1052
00:47:35.960 --> 00:47:38.079
<v Speaker 4>That's all I want. No, they're gonna win this. They're

1053
00:47:38.079 --> 00:47:40.480
<v Speaker 4>gonna win this series. They'll get to this series. We'll

1054
00:47:40.480 --> 00:47:40.800
<v Speaker 4>see what that.

1055
00:47:40.920 --> 00:47:43.360
<v Speaker 16>So it's going to be the Western team winning. So

1056
00:47:43.480 --> 00:47:46.840
<v Speaker 16>that's what we care about. It's a tougher conference.

1057
00:47:47.039 --> 00:47:51.760
<v Speaker 3>Thanks Howard, thanks for calling, Thanks for right. Okay, so

1058
00:47:51.800 --> 00:47:53.679
<v Speaker 3>I did what was I talking about? Ninety seven? Did

1059
00:47:53.679 --> 00:47:57.360
<v Speaker 3>this story blah blah blah bother Yeah, no, there was

1060
00:47:57.400 --> 00:48:00.400
<v Speaker 3>something else N said. I'll tell this story my suspend

1061
00:48:00.440 --> 00:48:01.239
<v Speaker 3>as everybody knows.

1062
00:48:01.639 --> 00:48:05.199
<v Speaker 2>That sucks. But that's just the way the job is.

1063
00:48:05.360 --> 00:48:08.880
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, no, it definitely isn't. I don't know if it's

1064
00:48:08.880 --> 00:48:11.599
<v Speaker 4>the degree to Howard's point in terms of I can't

1065
00:48:11.599 --> 00:48:13.480
<v Speaker 4>watch the I love watching sports.

1066
00:48:13.159 --> 00:48:15.519
<v Speaker 2>I do. Oh yeah, yeah, you know that the same.

1067
00:48:15.559 --> 00:48:19.800
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that stasts the same, but you watch it differently. Yeah, Like, okay,

1068
00:48:19.880 --> 00:48:21.719
<v Speaker 4>you're at home when you're a kid, as a uo

1069
00:48:21.760 --> 00:48:24.679
<v Speaker 4>a fan, every little thing that doesn't go of it, Oh,

1070
00:48:24.679 --> 00:48:28.119
<v Speaker 4>it's the rest fall itself. Now it's like, no, they

1071
00:48:28.280 --> 00:48:31.360
<v Speaker 4>just fumbled. They played like yeah, they played like not

1072
00:48:31.519 --> 00:48:34.159
<v Speaker 4>very good. Well yeah, well I didn't want to pull

1073
00:48:34.199 --> 00:48:37.519
<v Speaker 4>them brenn in it buzzed out. So but yeah, they

1074
00:48:37.519 --> 00:48:39.960
<v Speaker 4>didn't play very good or you know, it just didn't

1075
00:48:40.000 --> 00:48:40.400
<v Speaker 4>go the way.

1076
00:48:40.599 --> 00:48:43.119
<v Speaker 2>You get less attached to.

1077
00:48:43.000 --> 00:48:45.280
<v Speaker 3>It, Oh yeah, of course, and you get older to you,

1078
00:48:45.280 --> 00:48:47.079
<v Speaker 3>you know, all that fandom goes away.

1079
00:48:47.199 --> 00:48:49.320
<v Speaker 17>I think it's like kind of getting back to what

1080
00:48:49.360 --> 00:48:52.840
<v Speaker 17>Howard was saying, it's more like comparable to like how

1081
00:48:53.320 --> 00:48:56.039
<v Speaker 17>you watch like maybe like ESPN Sports putting its where

1082
00:48:56.039 --> 00:48:57.519
<v Speaker 17>it's like they're just talking like, you.

1083
00:48:57.400 --> 00:48:58.960
<v Speaker 2>Know, that's fair because I can't do that.

1084
00:48:59.360 --> 00:49:01.079
<v Speaker 3>I don't do that at all. I don't at all,

1085
00:49:01.119 --> 00:49:02.599
<v Speaker 3>even when I'm coming to the show and I maybe

1086
00:49:02.639 --> 00:49:04.559
<v Speaker 3>take an interurn back to the to the to the

1087
00:49:04.559 --> 00:49:06.760
<v Speaker 3>campus and we'd listened to sports because you know, my

1088
00:49:06.840 --> 00:49:08.960
<v Speaker 3>music and their music is not the same. You hear

1089
00:49:09.000 --> 00:49:11.159
<v Speaker 3>these things and I'm thinking they're talking about this, who

1090
00:49:11.199 --> 00:49:12.360
<v Speaker 3>really gives a crap about that?

1091
00:49:12.480 --> 00:49:14.519
<v Speaker 4>Or they know nothing about this because they don't really,

1092
00:49:14.800 --> 00:49:15.320
<v Speaker 4>they're not there.

1093
00:49:15.400 --> 00:49:17.199
<v Speaker 3>And I'm grateful for people listening to us in the

1094
00:49:17.239 --> 00:49:21.280
<v Speaker 3>show and to me, wex poetic on nothing. But but

1095
00:49:21.719 --> 00:49:23.679
<v Speaker 3>I mean they're price saying, Steve, what the hell are

1096
00:49:23.679 --> 00:49:26.480
<v Speaker 3>you talking about? Your opinion sucks? You know, what I'm

1097
00:49:26.480 --> 00:49:28.400
<v Speaker 3>saying when I listened, I don't listen to stephen A.

1098
00:49:28.679 --> 00:49:30.599
<v Speaker 3>I don't listen to some of the other guys. I'm

1099
00:49:30.599 --> 00:49:32.679
<v Speaker 3>thinking they're gonna tell me that I don't already know.

1100
00:49:33.159 --> 00:49:36.679
<v Speaker 4>I if I listen to like a sports thing, like

1101
00:49:36.760 --> 00:49:39.840
<v Speaker 4>let's say pro something, probably I'm albing at work at

1102
00:49:39.880 --> 00:49:42.440
<v Speaker 4>the end of the day, quick pitch something like that. Yeah,

1103
00:49:42.480 --> 00:49:46.400
<v Speaker 4>probably specifically on Bronco coverage, if there's a Bronco podcast,

1104
00:49:46.480 --> 00:49:48.639
<v Speaker 4>this and that. But what I've learned while doing this,

1105
00:49:48.800 --> 00:49:51.119
<v Speaker 4>like we saw this year with the draft, you have

1106
00:49:51.239 --> 00:49:55.639
<v Speaker 4>a national guy and Steve, Steve Smith trashing Bobby Wade

1107
00:49:55.639 --> 00:49:59.800
<v Speaker 4>trashing that Darro McMillan. It's like, well, you were never

1108
00:50:00.960 --> 00:50:05.800
<v Speaker 4>you don't see how hard he worked. You ever had practice.

1109
00:50:07.079 --> 00:50:09.039
<v Speaker 4>Here's the problem. Do you blame them? I don't know

1110
00:50:09.079 --> 00:50:12.000
<v Speaker 4>about Steve. I didn't listen to that, that gibberish. But

1111
00:50:11.840 --> 00:50:14.880
<v Speaker 4>but he got that information from somewhere, so he was

1112
00:50:14.920 --> 00:50:16.320
<v Speaker 4>the messenger for somebody.

1113
00:50:17.320 --> 00:50:20.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but you have to you have to see it though, right. No, No,

1114
00:50:20.119 --> 00:50:21.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't disagree with you. I don't disagree with you.

1115
00:50:21.880 --> 00:50:23.440
<v Speaker 3>But if someone's gonna tell me and I say, hey,

1116
00:50:23.440 --> 00:50:25.440
<v Speaker 3>a scout's telling me this and blah blah, and this

1117
00:50:25.519 --> 00:50:27.559
<v Speaker 3>is what he said. It's not coming from me, it's

1118
00:50:27.599 --> 00:50:30.199
<v Speaker 3>coming from them. But they were total he was and

1119
00:50:30.239 --> 00:50:33.719
<v Speaker 3>it proved to be totally incorrect. Yes, that's and that's

1120
00:50:33.719 --> 00:50:36.199
<v Speaker 3>why I agree with you. Some of these guys say

1121
00:50:36.239 --> 00:50:39.280
<v Speaker 3>some crazy stuff and it doesn't turn out to be true.

1122
00:50:39.519 --> 00:50:42.599
<v Speaker 4>No, and then when the guy does succeed, they're like, oh,

1123
00:50:42.679 --> 00:50:46.199
<v Speaker 4>everybody knew, well, the local media that was covering them dead,

1124
00:50:46.280 --> 00:50:49.559
<v Speaker 4>but the national media that was trashing them, No, you didn't.

1125
00:50:49.760 --> 00:50:51.559
<v Speaker 4>Yeah he had them at number fifty on your big

1126
00:50:51.599 --> 00:50:55.280
<v Speaker 4>board or whatever reason. But yeah, No, that to me,

1127
00:50:55.400 --> 00:50:57.320
<v Speaker 4>that's what drives me nuts now more than anything in

1128
00:50:57.360 --> 00:50:59.840
<v Speaker 4>terms of sports, is like, yeah, I can't enjoy that

1129
00:51:00.079 --> 00:51:02.400
<v Speaker 4>sell coverage the way I used.

1130
00:51:02.199 --> 00:51:04.360
<v Speaker 3>To wear Oh well, because you know, you know now

1131
00:51:04.400 --> 00:51:05.360
<v Speaker 3>how it actually works.

1132
00:51:05.400 --> 00:51:07.480
<v Speaker 4>It's just a bunch of crap because you know they're

1133
00:51:07.559 --> 00:51:10.639
<v Speaker 4>not there for me at least, Like, Okay, they have

1134
00:51:10.719 --> 00:51:15.000
<v Speaker 4>their sources, sure, but who are your sources? And if

1135
00:51:15.000 --> 00:51:17.440
<v Speaker 4>you're never at these events, if you're not watching everything,

1136
00:51:18.519 --> 00:51:19.000
<v Speaker 4>you don't know.

1137
00:51:19.599 --> 00:51:22.639
<v Speaker 17>No, I mean Kendrick Perkins, like this weekend, I think

1138
00:51:23.079 --> 00:51:26.000
<v Speaker 17>Sun Sunday after the Pacers game. He was like, oh,

1139
00:51:26.119 --> 00:51:27.960
<v Speaker 17>I didn't know who Miles, Like, I didn't know Miles

1140
00:51:27.960 --> 00:51:28.760
<v Speaker 17>Turner could do all that.

1141
00:51:28.800 --> 00:51:30.119
<v Speaker 2>And it's like, man, he's been in the league for

1142
00:51:30.159 --> 00:51:32.199
<v Speaker 2>like ten years, right right in the fact.

1143
00:51:32.239 --> 00:51:35.760
<v Speaker 3>And then you start having uh uh, sports people on

1144
00:51:35.800 --> 00:51:38.960
<v Speaker 3>sports people crime. I mean, Charles Barkley rips into your

1145
00:51:39.000 --> 00:51:40.920
<v Speaker 3>that guy you just Perkins, you just mentioned it, and

1146
00:51:40.920 --> 00:51:43.000
<v Speaker 3>they're all fighting with each other because everyone knows more

1147
00:51:43.039 --> 00:51:43.639
<v Speaker 3>than the other guy.

1148
00:51:43.800 --> 00:51:46.679
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, well, and you're on that station. We're on this station,

1149
00:51:46.960 --> 00:51:48.880
<v Speaker 4>so automatically we're gonna rip that station.

1150
00:51:49.199 --> 00:51:52.199
<v Speaker 3>Sure, sure, And do they know It's like Charles, who's

1151
00:51:52.320 --> 00:51:54.719
<v Speaker 3>very good at what he does, But the.

1152
00:51:54.639 --> 00:51:57.519
<v Speaker 2>Thing is he's never right on anything. He's not good

1153
00:51:57.519 --> 00:51:59.639
<v Speaker 2>at predicting. But I think in terms of the so you.

1154
00:51:59.679 --> 00:52:03.280
<v Speaker 4>Know what you you stop, well, you know what you

1155
00:52:03.320 --> 00:52:04.840
<v Speaker 4>do is when he predicts your team to win it,

1156
00:52:04.880 --> 00:52:06.119
<v Speaker 4>I'm sorry, it's probably over.

1157
00:52:06.559 --> 00:52:07.639
<v Speaker 2>It's probably over.

1158
00:52:08.159 --> 00:52:10.880
<v Speaker 4>And Arizona asked him to stop picking you if you

1159
00:52:10.880 --> 00:52:12.480
<v Speaker 4>want to win a national title because.

1160
00:52:12.280 --> 00:52:12.960
<v Speaker 2>You a lot.

1161
00:52:13.039 --> 00:52:15.079
<v Speaker 4>I hear that all the time. Charles picked us to win.

1162
00:52:15.159 --> 00:52:17.480
<v Speaker 4>That said, that's not a good thing, not a good thing,

1163
00:52:17.840 --> 00:52:19.960
<v Speaker 4>and he's never right, which is a good thing. That's

1164
00:52:20.000 --> 00:52:22.280
<v Speaker 4>why they call it a Charles Barkley guarantee.

1165
00:52:22.360 --> 00:52:24.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, okay, we gotta go get the first hour. Thanks

1166
00:52:25.000 --> 00:52:27.159
<v Speaker 3>Coach Brennan for coming on. We're gonna get breaking news

1167
00:52:27.159 --> 00:52:30.000
<v Speaker 3>from my boy Roy here in the next five minutes.
