Speaker 2: Before we gotta talk about this, we gotta bring on
Speaker 2: our guy, the man of the hour. When you talk
Speaker 2: about the man who runs the airwaves in Metro Detroit
Speaker 2: and beyond the one the only Rico.
Speaker 3: Pier ninety seven, one of the ticket joints, This is spied.
Speaker 1: What's up, guys, some fellas, what's happening? Word, my condolences
Speaker 1: to you, my brother.
Speaker 4: Oh man appreciated brothers. All good? You know what I mean?
Speaker 8: Yeah, I just saw that that the hockey team. Man,
Speaker 8: that's what you was talking about. Oh my goodness, four
Speaker 8: to three. I just got a text from Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 8: They took a penalty with a minute and thirty seconds
Speaker 8: to go, gave Cornell the power play. Cornell scores with
Speaker 8: eight seconds. They added two more seconds the clock they
Speaker 8: had the game. I mean, it was one of those
Speaker 8: games where they dominated the entire game and then in
Speaker 8: the last period Cornell just just they fought back and
Speaker 8: they tied the game up and won it ten seconds ago.
Speaker 8: I mean, I know they won the Big ten and
Speaker 8: they won the Big ten, you know, but it's waste
Speaker 8: of a season, man, really, no other way.
Speaker 2: To put it. Oh that's rough. I mean I just
Speaker 2: read how hot Cornell was coming into this contest on
Speaker 2: a six game win streak and five in the tournament.
Speaker 2: They just got finished with going into the NCAA's right now,
Speaker 2: and yeah, really they're hot again. I mean that's seven
Speaker 2: games win streak for them, and they take out the
Speaker 2: number one seeded Spartans.
Speaker 3: That's heartbreaking.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like the NCAA tournament is one and done.
Speaker 8: You're not allowed. Their goalie stood on his head, stopped everything.
Speaker 8: I think at one point Man Michigan State had out
Speaker 8: shocked them almost like four to six, and when they
Speaker 8: was only up.
Speaker 3: Three to two, oh, Man ran into it.
Speaker 2: But I saw whoa many We gotta try to pick
Speaker 2: up the pizzas.
Speaker 3: That's two years in the road, Michigan State.
Speaker 1: That's gone out.
Speaker 2: At least it wasn't to the school down the road
Speaker 2: this time. And the Frozen four right didn't even make
Speaker 2: it there this year. I know Adam Nightingale and company
Speaker 2: are gonna be looking their wounds off of this one.
Speaker 2: It's a tough loss for the Spartans. But talking to
Speaker 2: turn the page now, Rica, we got we got a
Speaker 2: big one tomorrow. I know there's a lot of region
Speaker 2: what's going on right now as we speak, and we
Speaker 2: want to get everybody to that as soon as we can.
Speaker 2: We did not want to miss this show, this opportunity
Speaker 2: to come to you though, especially with somebody like Rico Beard.
Speaker 8: The talk why y'all getting me to come on this
Speaker 8: games is, Oh, ain't nobody watching this show right now?
Speaker 1: Man?
Speaker 2: There watching tonight and tomorrow morning they will about it.
Speaker 2: It's all good.
Speaker 4: So we gotta talk about we get to Michigan State straight.
Speaker 5: I gotta alert that Maryland is being Florida and Maryland
Speaker 5: coach just say he's going to another school and he's
Speaker 5: in the Sweet sixteen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, is that why they boot him?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Kevin Willard tells his players he's leaving for Villanova before
Speaker 2: he plays in the Sweet sixty, and the fans boot
Speaker 2: him on the way out of the bus. So the
Speaker 2: coach jumping into portal, he's already signed, still delivered it
Speaker 2: sounds like.
Speaker 8: See, you know what, here's one thing that I will
Speaker 8: give credit to the school up the road, Straight's new school.
Speaker 1: New School.
Speaker 8: When uh, basically when when Bowl told uh, old boy,
Speaker 8: you gotta go. You're gonna take that job. You gotta
Speaker 8: leave right now, and Fisher ended up taking. They took
Speaker 8: over the team. That's the team that won the national
Speaker 8: title for them. If I'm the A D in Maryland,
Speaker 8: you can't coach this team. You're not part of this
Speaker 8: university anymore.
Speaker 1: Go to Villanova.
Speaker 8: One of your assistants will sit here and coach his
Speaker 8: team planning something that would be me because why'm listening
Speaker 8: to you as a player. You ain't gonna be here.
Speaker 2: Well, he's probably taking some of the players with him, right.
Speaker 8: But I mean, but a lot of them are seniors.
Speaker 8: I think Reese is a senior. Queen ain't coming back.
Speaker 8: I'm not listening to you. I'm yeah, I mean you
Speaker 8: you playing the role of the ultimate deady step dad.
Speaker 8: You ain't my real daddy.
Speaker 1: I ain't gotta listen to you.
Speaker 5: So how did that conversation even go down or come about?
Speaker 5: You think, like, is that something with him and the
Speaker 5: A D or him and the president, Like, how would
Speaker 5: that happen at a time like this.
Speaker 1: It's gotta be with the A D.
Speaker 8: I mean he probably told the A D he was
Speaker 8: interviewing and was like, well, I got the job.
Speaker 1: Can I coach the team? A D was. I mean,
Speaker 1: we hear you and this.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, basically, talk to your players if your
Speaker 8: players are okay with this. But if I was a player,
Speaker 8: I'd have a special players only meeting. No, you gotta go.
Speaker 8: You ain't our Hey, we appreciate you getting us here.
Speaker 8: Get the hell out, go to Villanova.
Speaker 3: I mean, I mean that tells you something.
Speaker 2: I mean we'll get into this discussion a little bit
Speaker 2: later too, about the state of things. So everybody talks
Speaker 2: about how powerful the Big ten the SEC are, but
Speaker 2: you're seeing a team like Maryland, a Big ten power
Speaker 2: in basketball, lose a coach to Villanova.
Speaker 8: Yeah, but Maryland's cheap. Let's lie. I'm pissed at Willard left. Okay,
Speaker 8: and I know this ain't this is Turtle podcast, But
Speaker 8: Maryland's notorious cheap. They don't pay at all, and I
Speaker 8: guess he just got frustrated.
Speaker 1: It's why they got these five guys there.
Speaker 8: They have no bench because they couldn't bring in people
Speaker 8: into portal. They're not attractive to people, even though they
Speaker 8: sit in a basketball hot bed. As a matter of fact,
Speaker 8: Michigan State just picked up two guys from that area
Speaker 8: coming to play hoops for them next year. They're they're
Speaker 8: known to be a relatively cheap school. All all across.
Speaker 1: The board with the under armour guy being think that.
Speaker 8: You would think that they had under armoured guy, but
Speaker 8: for some reason, no, they don't. I don't know who's
Speaker 8: controlling the purse strings. But you're right, you got under army.
Speaker 8: That's like Phil Knight in Oregon, Like Oregons just basically
Speaker 8: walking there like Santa Claus here. I want this and
Speaker 8: they get it. Michigan State got Magic. Okay, well you
Speaker 8: know time Magic donate one hundred dollars. You know what,
Speaker 8: I'm gonna leave it alone. We love Magic, we love
Speaker 8: we do. Three other NBA owners three Yeah, you know
Speaker 8: that's it.
Speaker 4: I know too. Who's the third one?
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, Tom Gores.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a spartan two in.
Speaker 3: The city of Flint.
Speaker 2: Hey listen, wait, you got what are we counting Magic
Speaker 2: as an owner not an NBA He is a baseball
Speaker 2: Lakers he owns the Lakers. I said, he runs the Lakers.
Speaker 1: You got Gilibert, you got SBA, and you got.
Speaker 2: Gors Yeah wow. And then and a lot more money
Speaker 2: out there where that came from too. So if you
Speaker 2: look at what Michigan State basketball has been able to do,
Speaker 2: you talk about you just brought up Maryland and them
Speaker 2: being cheap, mister.
Speaker 3: State, how are they looking on the n I L side?
Speaker 2: And it looks pretty good to me looking at let's say,
Speaker 2: in the Sweet sixteen Rico going against Old Miss tomorrow
Speaker 2: night in Atlanta at the State Farm Arena.
Speaker 1: Are you going down to there?
Speaker 8: No? I, uh man, it's probably best. I'm hoping against
Speaker 8: hope that they make it to the to the final
Speaker 8: four end up catching the sinus infection over the weekend.
Speaker 8: So I ain't trying to get on the plane with
Speaker 8: a sinus infection birthday.
Speaker 1: Why, That's not why. But okay, that's not why.
Speaker 8: I but okay, yeah, uh Now I was in Cleveland
Speaker 8: and I was there when they when they when they
Speaker 8: won their game there, and you know, over New Mexico.
Speaker 8: All right enough, the two teams they beat, both of
Speaker 8: those coaches are now coaching.
Speaker 1: New teams this week in Bryant in New Mexico.
Speaker 8: I was there watching that team and there they getting
Speaker 8: ready to go and play Old Miss and SEC team.
Speaker 1: I think it's a good match up for Michigan State.
Speaker 8: I think this is a matchup where look styles make
Speaker 8: the fight in the NCAA tournament.
Speaker 1: This is a fight where they can win.
Speaker 8: It's the only way that they would in my opinion,
Speaker 8: they lose this game if Ole Miss continues to shoot
Speaker 8: fifty percent from the three. The problem is they normally
Speaker 8: ain't that good. It's like Michigan State. They're not a
Speaker 8: great three point shooting team. But for some reason last weekend,
Speaker 8: everything was falling for them. They play a small line up,
Speaker 8: which normally frustrates teams with Michigan State could counterbalance that
Speaker 8: and go with a small line up.
Speaker 1: Put Cohen Karr in there.
Speaker 8: With Frankie Fiddler or with Jackson Cohler and the three guards,
Speaker 8: or they could just play the four guards in Cohen
Speaker 8: Carr and they can match, you know, small for small
Speaker 8: and still.
Speaker 1: All rebound them.
Speaker 8: So it's a good setup for them. Can't start off slow.
Speaker 8: That's been their biggest problem pretty much ever since. Other
Speaker 8: than the Michigan game, Senior Night, tell me if you
Speaker 8: heard this story before game starts, Michigan State turns the
Speaker 8: ball over. Next thing, you know, they down by about
Speaker 8: six to ten points and then they gotta fight their
Speaker 8: way back.
Speaker 1: Now they do, but it would be nice for your
Speaker 1: fans if you could just go out there and started
Speaker 1: game off on.
Speaker 8: A twenty run nothing run, and then we could all
Speaker 8: sit back and kick back and be like, swerve, smoke
Speaker 8: the cigars, right, have your.
Speaker 2: Red cups going? Yeah, it's not the way they like it.
Speaker 2: It seems to be a team that prides itself on
Speaker 2: wearing people down late in the game with the deep
Speaker 2: bench that they have. You talked about Maryland's woes not
Speaker 2: having the money to be able to happen depth. Mister
Speaker 2: Say clearly has depth playing ten eleven players at a
Speaker 2: high level, and it just seems like teams just wilt
Speaker 2: a way Rico at towards the end of the game.
Speaker 2: Like you know, you look at the clock, it's about
Speaker 2: eight to eighth or six minutes left to go. Mark,
Speaker 2: teams are a sucking wind out there.
Speaker 1: They are. Because it was funny because I was watching.
Speaker 8: Junior Joseph the Big Man for New Mexico and he
Speaker 8: was just doing that.
Speaker 1: He was sucking win. It's how he ended up falling
Speaker 1: out the game because his.
Speaker 8: Last two files were tired files where he was reaching
Speaker 8: because he just couldn't get to that space. Because you
Speaker 8: watch and Michigan State just Iszo just starts to substitute
Speaker 8: substitution pattern.
Speaker 1: Three minutes into the game. All the schools got two choices.
Speaker 8: We try to match them or we just go out
Speaker 8: there and hope that we don't get tired. If you
Speaker 8: match them, you throwing off your own rotation, because that's
Speaker 8: not what you do, if you leave your guys out there. Yeah,
Speaker 8: by the by about thirty minutes into the game, ten
Speaker 8: minutes left in the game, that's when all of a sudden,
Speaker 8: you see that next gear comes in. That's when, because
Speaker 8: think about it, they'll bench Jase and they'll put Trey
Speaker 8: Holloman out there, and while Trey out there busting that ass,
Speaker 8: he sits down, and then they bring James back in.
Speaker 1: It's like I forgot all the follow him. But what'sh
Speaker 1: off the bench?
Speaker 8: And now here comes j Nakens and Jeremy fear sits down,
Speaker 8: and now here comes Cohen car here comes like It's
Speaker 8: just like, man, they hit you in waves, they hit
Speaker 8: you in hockey ships where they literally substituting three four
Speaker 8: five at the.
Speaker 1: Time, and they're wearing you down.
Speaker 8: You know, your best player just unless you have a
Speaker 8: game like Tanji from Wisconsin did. Most of the time
Speaker 8: they wear the best player down. Now, Tanji played out
Speaker 8: is ning that game. Unfortunately, he played like absolute crap
Speaker 8: against Michigan and let them win. But against State, I
Speaker 8: said he was Lebron James against Michigan State. He was
Speaker 8: Bonnie James against Michigan. Hey, don't start no few Like hey, hey,
Speaker 8: steven A, you.
Speaker 3: Know he gonna come.
Speaker 2: He gonna come at you WECo and seemed like he
Speaker 2: got a personal bit detta against O Steve.
Speaker 8: Right now, that's okay. I'll buy him some spray on here,
Speaker 8: he'll be okay.
Speaker 5: Hey, it's funny you say that about the Tuesday because,
Speaker 5: like I said on Tuesday Show, you know we we
Speaker 5: we in that game and our top player don't score
Speaker 5: a pointed to the last three or four minutes of
Speaker 5: the game, which I'm thinking, you gotta get him going early,
Speaker 5: you know, decent three points guy, and.
Speaker 1: Swear here's what happened.
Speaker 8: We forget he's a freshman, and really that whole weekend
Speaker 8: he kind of played like a freshman. He had a
Speaker 8: decent game against Brian, but that he should have because
Speaker 8: that's Brian, that's a fifteen seed. But the next game,
Speaker 8: I think, look, y'all, athletes, I know you say you're doubt,
Speaker 8: but sometimes you you you feel the pats on the back,
Speaker 8: you read the press clippings, and you start doing a
Speaker 8: little bit too much. So he's his shots were falling.
Speaker 8: He was shooting airballs because I'm sitting there watching the game,
Speaker 8: like he just needs to make a layup, something simple.
Speaker 8: Once he sees the ball go through the net, and
Speaker 8: you saw I think he hit some free throws. He
Speaker 8: saw the ball go through the net. It calmed him
Speaker 8: down and he was able to finish the game I
Speaker 8: think with like five or six points. But all throughout
Speaker 8: he's just jacking up shots. I'm like, at some point
Speaker 8: you may have to just send him. The only reason
Speaker 8: why it worked that he was out there is because
Speaker 8: New Mexico was so worried about him that they couldn't
Speaker 8: double They was double teaming him and watching out for him,
Speaker 8: and that allowed Jay Nakens and everybody else to go
Speaker 8: out and do their thing because they kept thinking, Oh,
Speaker 8: he's about to he's about to go off on us.
Speaker 1: He wasn't.
Speaker 8: It was his worst game ever, but he was a
Speaker 8: decoy even though he didn't know he was a decoy.
Speaker 2: Everybody knew he was a deco without knowing that he
Speaker 2: was a decoy. Right, you know, you're right he had
Speaker 2: those three free throws. I think it was he got
Speaker 2: fouled on three point line late in the game and
Speaker 2: got those three free throws and saw the ball go
Speaker 2: through the net and was able to get on schedule
Speaker 2: a little bit at that time. When you talk about
Speaker 2: the fatigue, let's talk about Coen Carr for a minute.
Speaker 2: You know, when you just described the shifts like hockey ships,
Speaker 2: players coming off the bench in waves, I feel like,
Speaker 2: if you're playing against the spots on the other side
Speaker 2: of the court there that Coen car is coming off
Speaker 2: the roof of the building, he must be coming off
Speaker 2: of the dome coming down the way he elevates in
Speaker 2: his athleticism, he's been able to bail mischial state, in
Speaker 2: my opinion, out especially in that Brian game, with his athleticism.
Speaker 8: Match straighted Brian game is probably the best game he's
Speaker 8: played completely as a player, because it wasn't about the dunks.
Speaker 8: I think he I don't even know he had one dunk,
Speaker 8: but he was like making NBA move. It's like, whoa,
Speaker 8: you know what, if you practice this, you may be
Speaker 8: going on to the next level.
Speaker 1: At some point. He was out there.
Speaker 8: He was he was used his athleticism more than just
Speaker 8: dunking the ball.
Speaker 1: Now, the funny thing.
Speaker 8: Is he has so many teams psyched out that you
Speaker 8: can see when Michigan State runs the fast break, everybody
Speaker 8: runs towards him because they don't want to be in
Speaker 8: one shine in a moment getting dunked on.
Speaker 1: So it leads you. It leads whoever has the ball
Speaker 1: to either throw it up for a layup or throw
Speaker 1: it to the other side.
Speaker 8: They are purposely making sure he does not get a dunk.
Speaker 8: He has all eyes on him when they go off
Speaker 8: a layup. It's almost like the coaches are like, whatever
Speaker 8: you do, because here's the thing is, when he dunks it,
Speaker 8: it's worth six points because now you don't fire it
Speaker 8: up the team and now they're ready to go, especially
Speaker 8: if it's one of them. Tomahawk things. So opposing coaches
Speaker 8: are like fouling, make him shoot free throws. So which
Speaker 8: speaking of which Michigan State, I don't know what happened.
Speaker 8: They can't shoot free throws no more. When you play
Speaker 8: it against Old Miss, is gonna file a lot. If
Speaker 8: State gets to the line twenty times, and they may
Speaker 8: do that, you got to hit at least fifteen of
Speaker 8: the I mean fifteen, sixteen and o free throws. You
Speaker 8: can't go up there missing them because that that's a
Speaker 8: recipe of getting you beat because you got more talent
Speaker 8: than them.
Speaker 1: But if you leave points on the on the court,
Speaker 1: that'll get you beat.
Speaker 3: Great point.
Speaker 2: You know, I've been hitting seventy percent so far in
Speaker 2: the tournament from the free throw mine as you talked
Speaker 2: about Corn Carr and that Brian Gain had eighteen points
Speaker 2: and nine boards in that contest. There's a question for you,
Speaker 2: Rico in the chat, which of our guys need to
Speaker 2: play the best game the best to get out of
Speaker 2: this weekend.
Speaker 8: I think the best game. Maybe this may be a
Speaker 8: combination of Aikins defense. I forgot the name of their
Speaker 8: guard that scores a ton of points for them. I'm
Speaker 8: gonna look this up real quick, but Aikins defense is
Speaker 8: what you need, and you need at that point either
Speaker 8: Richardson or Holloman to pick up the slack for jaydon
Speaker 8: Akins not scoring, because there's certain games where Jay nake
Speaker 8: Is and co Uncong more valuable not scoring. They're more
Speaker 8: valuable trying to lock down the other defender. And if
Speaker 8: the other defender is averaging eighteen points and they only
Speaker 8: average eight points.
Speaker 1: That's a win in my opinion. So that's where they
Speaker 1: become important.
Speaker 8: Is they shut down the other guy's best players and
Speaker 8: force these other guys to beat you. And nine times
Speaker 8: out of ten it works. But yet your guards are
Speaker 8: really gonna have to step up. And you know it
Speaker 8: would be nice if Jackson Cohler Frankie Fiddler. Believe it
Speaker 8: or not, here's a weird stat. Frankie Fiddler came in
Speaker 8: with high expectations, he accepted his role, he went to
Speaker 8: the bench.
Speaker 1: He only plays like eight to twelve minutes a game.
Speaker 8: But in this tournament, when Frankie Fidler is in the game,
Speaker 8: Michigan State has outscored their two opponents about thirty one points.
Speaker 8: So just to let you know, you gotta get some
Speaker 8: contribution from somebody like that Xavier Booker. I think he's done, don't.
Speaker 8: I don't know if you gonna see him play anymore.
Speaker 8: But whether it's cooler, whether it's Fiddler, you know, Carson Cooper,
Speaker 8: the pot has gotten to the point now I don't
Speaker 8: even know why you play him. He starts and then
Speaker 8: he sits for the next thirty six minutes.
Speaker 1: He really want to come back into the game.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: Sean Padilla is the guy in the guard from Old
Speaker 2: Miss that you were talking about.
Speaker 8: Yes, yes, the score, so he's you know, I think
Speaker 8: he's like six' to. One So aikins has size on.
Speaker 8: Him but, yeah you Rotate fears And aikins And holloman
Speaker 8: on him, constantly and that's how you wear him down
Speaker 8: because he's gonna be hitting with three different, styles three different.
Speaker 8: People what worked on one guy ain't gonna work on
Speaker 8: the other. Two you keep him from, scoring and that's
Speaker 8: how you move on and you get ready to face you,
Speaker 8: know whoever you face in the next.
Speaker 1: Round you, KNOW i, mean this is.
Speaker 2: This is exciting analysis here From Rico beer ninety seven
Speaker 2: on the. Ticket i'm so deep and looking at this.
Speaker 2: Stuff so, YEAH i apologize y'all may not even want.
Speaker 2: It all that which which we, Need, no we need
Speaker 2: more people need that. Information YOU espn ticket at the. Bottom,
Speaker 2: yeah so the matchup predicted FOR espn, says you, know Missig,
Speaker 2: state it's got a sixty four and a half percent
Speaker 2: chance of winning this ball. Game but you know you
Speaker 2: gotta throw all those records out when you're talking about
Speaker 2: playing in these different.
Speaker 8: Venues they they say they, do but it's one of those, where,
Speaker 8: really and once, again you guys are, athletes there's some
Speaker 8: games where you, know if we just do what we,
Speaker 8: do we're gonna. Win let's not try to play their.
Speaker 8: Game let's do what we. Do let's do what we do.
Speaker 8: Best make them play up to. Us for MS u
Speaker 8: rebound get. Them they're not a tall. Team they don't rebound.
Speaker 8: Well so that means even if you're missing, shots get
Speaker 8: the rebound and kick it back out and get another,
Speaker 8: shot get another, shot or get. Filed you get, filed
Speaker 8: you hit your free. Throws it's a game that they
Speaker 8: will by. ATTRITION i don't think they're gonna go out
Speaker 8: and start the game and blow them, out BUT i
Speaker 8: think it's a game where eventually they just pull away
Speaker 8: like they did Against New, mexico and they went from
Speaker 8: being a five point lead to an eight point lead
Speaker 8: to a ten point league and you.
Speaker 1: Just keep that thing going and you make them play catch.
Speaker 1: Up now they're.
Speaker 8: Desperate now they Gotta now they out there jacking up
Speaker 8: shots that they probably shouldn't because they're, desperate and you
Speaker 8: just playing smart.
Speaker 3: BASKETBALL i mean that it was you.
Speaker 2: Got i'm mad that you ain't going To, atlanta, man
Speaker 2: BECAUSE i need they need you in the, Humble they
Speaker 2: need you down there on the north side of something
Speaker 2: to get some of that energy you, got because that's
Speaker 2: one of the things you need to be able to.
Speaker 2: Bring that's one thing you talked About. Jason you Know
Speaker 2: richardson in the last the second, game and then you
Speaker 2: know he did he, struggled and he talked about maybe
Speaker 2: it was a matter of him reading his own press.
Speaker 1: CLIPPINGS i think this is we forget he's he's a.
Speaker 1: Freshman this is all.
Speaker 3: News, yeah surviving advance is not.
Speaker 2: Easy we, had you, know a Lloydsha sevanga and he
Speaker 2: talked about how tough that first game is for. Guys
Speaker 2: there's a lot of pressure on these basketball players coming
Speaker 2: in and this is his first.
Speaker 3: TIME i know his.
Speaker 2: Dad he's been around a ton of guys talking old
Speaker 2: wars about.
Speaker 8: It But BIGGER i used to pick up two files
Speaker 8: checking in the. Game i've never seen a man get
Speaker 8: in foul trouble for doing. Nothing bigger he was so
Speaker 8: big that he would just get files for standing at
Speaker 8: because people were running to, him and he's just, like,
Speaker 8: what like out of the man's out.
Speaker 1: COLD i didn't do. Nothing how he pass out at
Speaker 1: like he.
Speaker 8: WAS i felt bad for him because he literally would
Speaker 8: just stand there and just pick up file at the
Speaker 8: file only because he was so big in his.
Speaker 1: Size he was the nicest.
Speaker 8: Guy but we always laugh like Yep al checked into
Speaker 8: the game two files right up the.
Speaker 4: Rip no need to take him home with, you, true.
Speaker 1: But, yeah but it.
Speaker 8: Is surviving advance and what you saw for the first
Speaker 8: time off, Season jace was out there playing outside of.
Speaker 1: Himself AND i think he'll be.
Speaker 8: Okay BECAUSE i because after the, Game i'd Asked, jade
Speaker 8: what did you? Saying he was, like, look you know
Speaker 8: we we we told, him as your shots are gonna,
Speaker 8: come don't don't press don't you, know don't get down on.
Speaker 8: Yourself but that was the first time, That i'm, like you,
Speaker 8: know he's just he's playing desperate right. Now he's not
Speaker 8: playing within. Himself he was trying to find that first
Speaker 8: shot no matter.
Speaker 1: What and it's it's, like you, know he he just
Speaker 1: lost what he. Was he lost that.
Speaker 3: Man, rico you got a question. Here it's a good.
Speaker 1: One.
Speaker 3: Rico nsu hasn't won since two.
Speaker 2: Thousand this Tom is will need another title to be
Speaker 2: with the Coach k's And Bob knights And calhoun's of the.
Speaker 1: WORLD i, MEAN i mean it's Our boob's.
Speaker 8: Fun, yeah, yes, yes, yes he needs. THAT i mean
Speaker 8: he knows. It it's what drives. Him he says it,
Speaker 8: publicly he says it. Privately he wants that Second, Natty
Speaker 8: why do you think this man is in his seventies still.
Speaker 8: Coaching he watched that second, one and there's been times
Speaker 8: WHERE i thought he was gonna get it and he.
Speaker 8: DIDN'T i think probably to, me the closest was the
Speaker 8: nineteen season when they knocked Off. Duke but then you,
Speaker 8: Know cash's knees was going breaking down And Texas. TECH
Speaker 8: i remember that, GAME i rightly. Enough it Was Chris,
Speaker 8: beard the coach of this old Miss we're gonna Take
Speaker 8: cashes out the. Game We cash just won't get a.
Speaker 8: Shot let's make everybody else on this team beat. Us
Speaker 8: they couldn't couldn't hear a. Shot matt, McQuaid, Nobody kenny,
Speaker 8: Going Jeremy lanfer was out for the. YEAR i mean
Speaker 8: Not jeremy Like Josh laffer was out for the. Year
Speaker 8: that was probably his. Age yet Heat Texas.
Speaker 1: Tech they would have Played.
Speaker 8: Virginia they would have Beat virginia in The national title
Speaker 8: game because they always Beat virginia Because virginia's coach just,
Speaker 8: yeah they he would always just have problems WITH. Msu
Speaker 8: he was, thankful thank Betting Tony bennett was thankful he
Speaker 8: didn't have to See Michigan. State, yeah that's, right but,
Speaker 8: yes he needs to win. This it's what drives this. Man,
Speaker 8: honestly it's, Seriously i'm sure he wakes up in the
Speaker 8: middle of the nice screaming now the title And loopie Like,
Speaker 8: tom go back to, Sleep go go it's coming, baby it's,
Speaker 8: coming go back To so you.
Speaker 3: Know there's been a lot of talk About.
Speaker 2: Tom if he does get to The final four and
Speaker 2: eventually win The, natty does he come.
Speaker 3: BACK i think he comes.
Speaker 8: Back AND i think the time full circle moment wire probably.
Speaker 1: Two three years away from his full circle.
Speaker 8: MOMENT i, think in the perfect, world even if he
Speaker 8: let's just say he won this, YEAR i think he
Speaker 8: would like to end coaching my teen's. SON i think
Speaker 8: that would be his perfect full circle. MOMENT i won
Speaker 8: with mat, team AND i stayed long enough THAT i
Speaker 8: coached his.
Speaker 5: Son tom is gonna be ninety three years.
Speaker 4: Old man.
Speaker 1: In high? School, right, yes kids in high?
Speaker 4: School now where you're gonna look ninety?

Speaker 1: That he's from that the cloth of what else is
Speaker 1: he gonna?
Speaker 8: DO i, mean, HONESTLY i don't. Know IF i was,
Speaker 8: HIM i would have left a long time. AGO i
Speaker 8: would have DID tv, out did a lot of. Stuff

Speaker 8: Do i'm gonna LET espn Or fox pay me a
Speaker 8: bunch of money and kind of live my.
Speaker 1: Life this isn't in HIS.
Speaker 8: Dna then he needs that second, title and then maybe
Speaker 8: he'll think about leave.
Speaker 1: Him BUT i don't even think he'll.
Speaker 8: LEAVE i think he'll probably want to stick around and
Speaker 8: be some type of ambassador to the Pro he can't
Speaker 8: go sit, Still and, honestly his wife probably don't want
Speaker 8: him in the.
Speaker 1: House let me not that it is anything.
Speaker 8: Wrong it's just she would get tired of him, saying,
Speaker 8: boy would you go out and do something and leave us.

Speaker 2: Yo i'm gonna ask, you what's the coach At Saint
Speaker 2: John's Rick? Potino did Did Rick potino do? Something did
Speaker 2: Did mal do something worse For Rick?
Speaker 3: Patino?
Speaker 1: Yes how you say That meil.
Speaker 8: Did something work from worse Than Rick? Patino Because mel
Speaker 8: was losing And meil Had enemiesino was, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 8: Do it's about who you are and who you.
Speaker 1: Know Whoa.
Speaker 4: Nick.
Speaker 8: Patino Rick patino is the main. Man ain't nothing happening
Speaker 8: To Rick mattino at the. Time i'm trying to think
Speaker 8: was he At kentucky or was he At louisville when that? Happened,
Speaker 8: YEAH i mean he walked to think About Rick patino
Speaker 8: was such a.
Speaker 1: Boss he Left kentucky to Coach.
Speaker 8: Louisville Imagine toms Or Lee's Michigan state to go Coach
Speaker 8: michigan and successful and nobody says. Anything so, Yeah Rick
Speaker 8: patino out, THERE i think allegedly was banging his assistant
Speaker 8: coach's wife on the restaur our.
Speaker 1: Table, okay let's just. Say let's just say allegedly that's
Speaker 1: what he.
Speaker 3: Did that's.
Speaker 4: IT i don't know.
Speaker 1: If it's been, approval but and and to make it.
Speaker 5: As, man, HUH i want to know what coach that? Was,
Speaker 5: Man i'll, Beat i'll, Beat i'll Beat Rick.
Speaker 8: Ads what do you said that's? Worth because you know
Speaker 8: what happened coach, divorce his wife stayed With. Patino, HUH i, Stutter,
Speaker 8: yeah the assistant coach.
Speaker 4: Divorce, yeah the assistant goes.
Speaker 8: Did he stayed With Rick, pattino got rid of the,
Speaker 8: wife stayed With patino.
Speaker 2: After they tried to extort him because they said she was.
Speaker 2: Pregnant but, look he was able to come back from.
Speaker 2: That that's my point Right.
Speaker 1: Well now he had to go the long. Way he
Speaker 1: HAD i, Own, yeah he went and For.
Speaker 8: MAIL i think the worst thing that happened To mail
Speaker 8: Was Nick saban, retired BECAUSE i Think Nick saban would
Speaker 8: have put him on The alabama's half and he would
Speaker 8: have been a defensive, analyst that type of. Thing Because
Speaker 8: Steve sarksian and all of these people able to rehab their,
Speaker 8: careers there's nobody right now to really vouch For mail
Speaker 8: and Get mail.
Speaker 1: Back but If Nick saban was.
Speaker 8: Still Coaching, alabama Mel tucker would probably be like At
Speaker 8: marshall right, now coaching the, team trying to make his
Speaker 8: way back into the mainstream because it worked for all
Speaker 8: these other, guys The Layne kiffins of the, world The
Speaker 8: steve sarkis a. LOT i, mean basically it was Passing
Speaker 8: malibu Was. Alabama you need to rehab your, Career you go,
Speaker 8: there you fix, yourself and then people will take you.
Speaker 3: BACK i, Mean Hugh, freeze think about what he.
Speaker 2: Did he was down At Old miss you, KNOW i
Speaker 2: mean he was down a hooker from his cell, phone
Speaker 2: right that the state?
Speaker 1: Issue?
Speaker 8: Right?
Speaker 2: Yeah so For Maob Bobby, patrino how about?
Speaker 8: Him Bobby petrino gets caught in an accident with his
Speaker 8: side piece on the back of his. Mopad first of,
Speaker 8: all why you want a mopad with your side?
Speaker 1: Piece you can't afford a taxi.
Speaker 8: Cab they rolled, Over they both in an, Accident, Like,
Speaker 8: bobby what happened to? You he walking in with a
Speaker 8: neck brace and then he looked over, like, well what
Speaker 8: happened to your? Assistant huh huh? Uh see what happened was,
Speaker 8: Yeah and next, thing you know That Mail mail rose
Speaker 8: too fast and made too many enemies on his way,
Speaker 8: up and a lot of people just took advantage.
Speaker 1: Of that and made sure they came after.
Speaker 8: Him you, know he from the stories that you, hear
Speaker 8: he wasn't the greatest person after he got to signed that.
Speaker 8: Contract So i'll leave that at. That but that's and
Speaker 8: now If I'm, MAIL.
Speaker 1: I, MEAN i don't.
Speaker 2: Think there's any chance any hope of him coming back
Speaker 2: into coaching ever, Again, no.
Speaker 8: Because if it, WAS i think he would have been
Speaker 8: on somebody's. STAFF i thought he for a second he
Speaker 8: was gonna go On. GEORGIA'S i thought he was On
Speaker 8: georgia staff for a. Second but, yeah it's just one
Speaker 8: of those where Like Rick, patino, man he was On ionia.
Speaker 1: Staff don't nobody know Where iona.
Speaker 8: Is so, yeah you're gonna have to maybe go to
Speaker 8: some school way out in the middle of, nowhere and
Speaker 8: you're a coach out there and you win because once
Speaker 8: you start.
Speaker 1: Winning people will forgive.
Speaker 8: You Rick, patino you go serve your time out, there
Speaker 8: and then they start moving and then They Saint john's
Speaker 8: called and, said, hey you want to come here and. Coach,
Speaker 8: yeah thank, You i'm out of. Here it's it's almost
Speaker 8: like a prison. Time he got to serve or. Rehab
Speaker 8: go rehab your image out on the, sticks and once
Speaker 8: we think you're, ready we'll bring you.
Speaker 1: Back but he's got to go out to kind of
Speaker 1: like anybody, else you gotta go to. Rehab, okay you've
Speaker 1: got to clean your life up, first and then you
Speaker 1: can come back.
Speaker 3: Or go to THE. Nfl they don't give a.
Speaker 8: Damn but apparently he's out in THE, nfl SO.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 4: Know so we're talking ABOUT.
Speaker 5: Nfl let me ask you about this two, things all,
Speaker 5: right shardor not throwing or not working, out and then
Speaker 5: With Ashanti samuels and his thing with With, dan how
Speaker 5: you feel about those two situations or.
Speaker 8: With shador not really, throwing he's hurting. Himself, really his father's.
Speaker 8: Hurting his father's.
Speaker 1: KILLING i.
Speaker 8: Know and you, two as fathers of guys playing, football
Speaker 8: you look. Out you want to look out for your.
Speaker 8: Kids BUT I i just had to talk with some
Speaker 8: parents from high school, parents AND i, said you're your
Speaker 8: kid's own worst. Enemy it ain't the, media it ain't the,
Speaker 8: coach it ain't his, teammate it's. You because sometimes you
Speaker 8: just need to let your kid go through some. Stuff
Speaker 8: and right Now dion, saying, well my kid gonna go
Speaker 8: and where he gonna?
Speaker 1: Play in what? City it's, like D, ie your time is.
Speaker 1: Up you was A hall of. Famer don't do.
Speaker 8: This to your kid because now it's undue pressure on
Speaker 8: him that he didn't ask. For, now you, know it's almost, like,
Speaker 8: look don't get me, wrong because he's much more talented
Speaker 8: than Like Bronnie. James but If Bronnie james had a
Speaker 8: last name Of Bronnie, smith we wouldn't be this hard on.
Speaker 8: Him but When shador comes in because of who his dad,
Speaker 8: is everybody's gonna come down on this kid. Harder and
Speaker 8: now you got your father saying where you gonna? Play and,
Speaker 8: look The mannings pulled this. Stunt, yeah and you know,
Speaker 8: what nobody liked the man and they talked about The,
Speaker 8: mannings but The mannings pulled that start off and, said
Speaker 8: we ain't saying. Nothing Archie madding didn't come out in
Speaker 8: the media every other day when he, said you know,
Speaker 8: what my son's ain't playing on these. Teams But dion
Speaker 8: every press conference that he yet he's constantly saying what
Speaker 8: he's gonna, do what he's gonna, do what He, dion sit,
Speaker 8: Back let your son see where he's, at because right
Speaker 8: NOW i think his stock is.
Speaker 1: Dropping right. Now he probably it may be good for,
Speaker 1: him but, YEAH i.
Speaker 8: DON'T i thought he was gonna be a top three,
Speaker 8: pick but with The giants doing out Getting Russell, wilson
Speaker 8: they're not gonna waste that pick.
Speaker 1: On she door.
Speaker 5: Now so Now shador he's why would you say that when?
Speaker 5: When But atlanta just Signed Michael ennix right and they
Speaker 5: and they just signed uh kirk Kirk cousin to a
Speaker 5: big contract because.
Speaker 8: The giants have so many needs that to pay this.
Speaker 8: Man and drafts because if you're The, giants this is
Speaker 8: not known for a great quarterback.
Speaker 1: Draft if you're The giants and you're bad this, year great.
Speaker 8: Because they're thinking there's, better better quarterbacks coming out next
Speaker 8: year that you could get in and maybe you Get Arch,
Speaker 8: manning maybe you get one of these other guys who
Speaker 8: could come in. Here but right, now you may be
Speaker 8: able to get Our Duel carter From Penn state to
Speaker 8: help out that, defense or you may be able to
Speaker 8: Get Mason graham From michigan to help out your.
Speaker 1: Defense you may be able to get, somebody.
Speaker 8: A big body in there and then worry about a
Speaker 8: quarterback next year and you may maybe get a free
Speaker 8: agent or get somebody in the. Draft but if you
Speaker 8: take your, door you're basically, Saying, okay he's our guy
Speaker 8: for the future and we married to him for the
Speaker 8: next three.
Speaker 2: YEARS i, mean one of the insider clowns whatever they
Speaker 2: are FROM espn did come out this morning say, that,
Speaker 2: yeah they did Take Russell, wilson but they will still
Speaker 2: take a.
Speaker 3: QUARTERBACK i don't know which one they want talking.
Speaker 2: About obviously Cam ward looks to be off the board
Speaker 2: by the time The New York giants. Picked but one
Speaker 2: would Think shador saying this, OUT i thought that they
Speaker 2: had a scheduled workout coming up and they just.
Speaker 3: Cancel.
Speaker 1: That is that what? Happened you?
Speaker 8: KNOW i, know, man these workouts would be going on
Speaker 8: and on all the. Time but here's a quarterback though
Speaker 8: people ain't thinking about you could take a quarterback in
Speaker 8: the next.
Speaker 1: Round what if they Took Jalen milroe in the second.
Speaker 8: Round that's of a risk if it doesn't work, Out
Speaker 8: you're not paying him that much money more but that
Speaker 8: much amount of money.
Speaker 1: That you would be paying your door if you took
Speaker 1: him in the first.
Speaker 3: Round you rather go in the second round.
Speaker 2: Anyway you don't have that fifth year option you he
Speaker 2: had to deal with quicker myro is terrible.
Speaker 8: Just saying another quarterback other than. Him here's a question for.
Speaker 8: You another one here From Astral. Morgan, Hey, rico what
Speaker 8: do you Think lion should do with twenty? Eight should
Speaker 8: they trade up and get their guy or trade down
Speaker 8: is he asked me WHAT i would do or WHAT
Speaker 8: i Think Brad holmes is gonna, do because me And
Speaker 8: brad don't see how to eye said.
Speaker 1: Should what do you think, everybody anybody.
Speaker 8: Who listened to my, show, anybody everybody knows that the
Speaker 8: people WHO i Wanted brad to take in the last
Speaker 8: couple of years all Became Philadelphia. Eagles and you saw
Speaker 8: what that defense did in The Super. BOWL i Wanted Jalen,
Speaker 8: CARTER i wanted all of them. GUYS i Wanted Nolan,
Speaker 8: SMITH i wanted all The Jordan. DAVIS i was, like, man,
Speaker 8: Drafted i'm all about drafted big. Guys worry if the
Speaker 8: other pieces will fall into. Place but if you get
Speaker 8: the best offensive and defensive, lineman.
Speaker 1: You're gonna win. Games it's it's A it's just how
Speaker 1: it works in. Football i'm talking to people who y'all
Speaker 1: know What i'm talking.
Speaker 8: About if you draft the big men AND i straight
Speaker 8: you go open up holes that swerve could go run, through, Right.
Speaker 1: Okay but now.
Speaker 8: If you if you collected nothing but, toys and that's
Speaker 8: what wide receivers and running backs.
Speaker 1: They them, toys you don't win, games you, look you
Speaker 1: know what you.
Speaker 8: Become you To Miami, dolphins you look fun until it
Speaker 8: get cold out and now you lose all the. Time
Speaker 8: so if it was me to answer the, question if
Speaker 8: it were, me it's hard to say because you don't know.
Speaker 1: Who's gonna fall in the.
Speaker 8: Draft you don't know this one guy that you just
Speaker 8: swear up and down he's gonna be a first round,
Speaker 8: pick and the next thing you, know he's This Nakobe
Speaker 8: dean being drafted in the third. Round if there's a
Speaker 8: guy that on the defensive line of edge rusher that's,
Speaker 8: THERE i would try to snap him.
Speaker 1: Up you may have to move up to get. Him
Speaker 1: but if.
Speaker 8: You, can't then maybe you just trade back and trip
Speaker 8: try to pick up as many pieces as.
Speaker 1: POSSIBLE i will go.
Speaker 8: After it's gotta be an edge, rusher edge rusher or
Speaker 8: an edge rusher or d or.
Speaker 1: Detackle anything other than, THAT i think it's a waste
Speaker 1: of a pick because your window is right. Now you
Speaker 1: gotta have somebody who can help Out Aiden.
Speaker 8: Hutchinson Because aiden coming off that broken, leg we assume
Speaker 8: it's like a video game where once you come back from,
Speaker 8: injury you one hundred percent that's not how real life.
Speaker 8: Works it's still gonna take that man some time physically
Speaker 8: and mentally to trust that leg and go out there
Speaker 8: and play with the reckless abandonment that he had in
Speaker 8: the first four games of the.
Speaker 2: Year oh, Now, Yeah Miles garrett was one of those
Speaker 2: options in this of The lions out they might be
Speaker 2: able to pull, off but obviously he. Remained it came
Speaker 2: back to The Cleveland browns and the coveted pass rusher
Speaker 2: is something that everybody. Needs so you think that there's
Speaker 2: some guys that may be available from, him it's.
Speaker 8: Straight this is a draft where it ain't a lot
Speaker 8: of quarterbacks to be, taken and it's not a lot
Speaker 8: of great.
Speaker 1: Players but it's a lot of good.
Speaker 8: Players this is a draft Where Brad holmes and every
Speaker 8: you got to do your homework because.
Speaker 1: There's gonna be guys there that maybe got a flaw or.
Speaker 1: Two but can you work with that, flaw can you
Speaker 1: fix that, flaw can you enhance that flaw and change
Speaker 1: it that flaw into a.
Speaker 8: Strength that's where so it's it's probably about ten defensive
Speaker 8: linemen that will be available in this draft that are.
Speaker 8: Good if your homes you go in there with your
Speaker 8: ten and hope that they a couple of them slide
Speaker 8: down to you and then bag you got your, guy
Speaker 8: not another running. Back they don't need another running. Back, no, no,
Speaker 8: no because the end of the, day and this is
Speaker 8: when people get, Mad i'm not gonna Pay Jamire gibbs
Speaker 8: when this contract is.
Speaker 1: UP i, MAY i, MAY i may give him a franchise.
Speaker 8: Year but think of it like, this what great running
