<v Speaker 1>Go off our show idiots.

2
00:00:02.279 --> 00:00:03.720
<v Speaker 2>The kids are playing a trail off.

3
00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:05.320
<v Speaker 3>The countries are screwing it up.

00:00:05.440 --> 00:00:08.560
<v Speaker 1>Gold Play Inner Murals, Brother, gold Play Inner Murals.

5
00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:11.759
<v Speaker 2>They're supposed to be mature adults, but they're really not.

6
00:00:12.519 --> 00:00:13.519
<v Speaker 2>Who's the kid here?

7
00:00:14.519 --> 00:00:16.199
<v Speaker 1>Who's the kid here? Are you kidding me?

8
00:00:16.960 --> 00:00:17.239
<v Speaker 2>Now?

9
00:00:17.280 --> 00:00:22.199
<v Speaker 1>Here's nick coffee?

10
00:00:23.839 --> 00:00:26.640
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's get this thing started. Are you ready?

11
00:00:27.079 --> 00:00:29.079
<v Speaker 2>Ready or not? Let's just stop right in.

12
00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:32.520
<v Speaker 4>Welcome ed Coffee and company, fueled by Thornton's here on

13
00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:35.759
<v Speaker 4>Sports Talk seven ninety. Thanks for hanging out with us

14
00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:40.280
<v Speaker 4>here on a wet Tuesday. I mean, we've had a

15
00:00:40.359 --> 00:00:44.759
<v Speaker 4>variety of different substances falling from the sky. It was

16
00:00:45.119 --> 00:00:48.799
<v Speaker 4>snow earlier this morning, and then I feel like it

17
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:51.200
<v Speaker 4>turned into kind of just to maybe they'll call it

18
00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:53.039
<v Speaker 4>freezing rain, but to me, it just kind of seemed

19
00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:56.719
<v Speaker 4>like rain. And then on my way in about fifteen

20
00:00:56.759 --> 00:00:59.399
<v Speaker 4>minutes ago, when I was pulling in the garage here,

21
00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:02.240
<v Speaker 4>it was it was do with something that made a

22
00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:04.079
<v Speaker 4>noise when it hit my car. I don't know, I

23
00:01:04.120 --> 00:01:06.799
<v Speaker 4>don't think that's considered hail. I don't maybe it's sleep.

24
00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:09.159
<v Speaker 4>I'm not sure what it is, but it's wet and

25
00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:13.400
<v Speaker 4>it's gross outside. But the good news is that it's not.

26
00:01:13.879 --> 00:01:17.239
<v Speaker 4>It's not freezing quite literally, it's above freezing thirty five

27
00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:21.719
<v Speaker 4>degrees and that's good. Again, it's gross outside, but it

28
00:01:21.760 --> 00:01:24.480
<v Speaker 4>doesn't look like we have any real fear. At least

29
00:01:24.480 --> 00:01:26.079
<v Speaker 4>we shouldn't have any fear, I should say, as far

30
00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:29.319
<v Speaker 4>as it getting real real dicey. I mean, you always

31
00:01:29.359 --> 00:01:31.120
<v Speaker 4>need to be careful, even if it's warm and it's

32
00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:35.480
<v Speaker 4>raining and the roads are wet and you've got elevated

33
00:01:35.519 --> 00:01:38.239
<v Speaker 4>water to where you might have to worry about hydro planing, like,

34
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:39.120
<v Speaker 4>you need to be careful.

35
00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:41.159
<v Speaker 2>But what we had earlier this.

36
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:43.480
<v Speaker 4>Year, the beginning of the year January, I mean, I

37
00:01:43.480 --> 00:01:45.480
<v Speaker 4>don't think I don't think this is anything like that.

38
00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:49.120
<v Speaker 4>In fact, it looks like if we get above I

39
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:51.680
<v Speaker 4>mean even if it's getting cold at night, it doesn't

40
00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:52.959
<v Speaker 4>look like it's gonna get below freezing.

41
00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:55.920
<v Speaker 2>So that's good news. Again, everybody should still be careful.

42
00:01:56.040 --> 00:01:59.959
<v Speaker 4>But I cannot imagine that we'll have kids out of

43
00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:03.000
<v Speaker 4>school again tomorrow. I mean maybe we will, I don't know.

44
00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:06.359
<v Speaker 4>I mean you never really know. Maybe they just still

45
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:09.240
<v Speaker 4>with the ability to just say, hey, we're gonna do

46
00:02:09.319 --> 00:02:11.560
<v Speaker 4>school but we're gonna do it at home. Maybe that

47
00:02:11.759 --> 00:02:14.159
<v Speaker 4>leads them to not want to risk it. I don't know,

48
00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:16.800
<v Speaker 4>but today was one of those days where you know,

49
00:02:17.039 --> 00:02:19.280
<v Speaker 4>we had to we had to call an audible this morning.

50
00:02:19.879 --> 00:02:21.919
<v Speaker 4>We found out last night, I guess yesterday we found

51
00:02:21.919 --> 00:02:23.400
<v Speaker 4>out that my daughter was going to be out of school,

52
00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:26.439
<v Speaker 4>and then my kid's daycare, Moose's daycare, decided they were

53
00:02:26.439 --> 00:02:29.039
<v Speaker 4>gonna close, I mean, and it was just really for nothing.

54
00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:32.360
<v Speaker 4>I mean again, I don't get it out of the way.

55
00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:33.919
<v Speaker 4>It's gonna it's gonna stew and I need to get

56
00:02:33.919 --> 00:02:35.080
<v Speaker 4>it out of the way because I don't want to know.

57
00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:36.039
<v Speaker 4>I want to have a good show. I want to

58
00:02:36.039 --> 00:02:40.639
<v Speaker 4>have fun. I want good energy here today. But childcare centers,

59
00:02:40.719 --> 00:02:45.319
<v Speaker 4>daycares that don't realize they become more.

60
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:48.479
<v Speaker 2>Needed they we we.

61
00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:51.599
<v Speaker 4>Really need them, more than we ever need them when

62
00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:56.759
<v Speaker 4>when kids aren't in school. And I don't know, I mean,

63
00:02:57.240 --> 00:03:00.400
<v Speaker 4>I've said this before many times over the years. I

64
00:03:00.439 --> 00:03:02.479
<v Speaker 4>love where my kid goes to daycare. He loves it there.

65
00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:04.680
<v Speaker 4>He's got some of his best friends ever. I mean,

66
00:03:04.719 --> 00:03:07.319
<v Speaker 4>he's literally grown up since he was, you know, a

67
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:09.439
<v Speaker 4>few months old. With a few few of his buddies

68
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:11.479
<v Speaker 4>that are still his best friends today, and it's awesome.

69
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:13.639
<v Speaker 2>He likes it. They take good care of my kid.

70
00:03:13.639 --> 00:03:18.039
<v Speaker 2>But I'll never when you don't. We bring them to you. Okay,

71
00:03:18.080 --> 00:03:18.840
<v Speaker 2>there's no buses.

72
00:03:18.919 --> 00:03:20.680
<v Speaker 4>We have to worry about putting my kid on a

73
00:03:20.719 --> 00:03:22.919
<v Speaker 4>bus and the roads being bad and somebody getting in

74
00:03:22.919 --> 00:03:23.280
<v Speaker 4>a wreck.

75
00:03:23.560 --> 00:03:24.479
<v Speaker 2>We bring them to you.

76
00:03:24.599 --> 00:03:27.840
<v Speaker 4>And whenever we've got other kids that are out of

77
00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:31.680
<v Speaker 4>school and we you know, you're needed more than ever.

78
00:03:31.879 --> 00:03:36.960
<v Speaker 4>And the decision to follow the school system's closure makes

79
00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:41.240
<v Speaker 4>no sense because again, you know why schools close whenever

80
00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:43.879
<v Speaker 4>the roads are bad and it's gonna snow, because they

81
00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:47.199
<v Speaker 4>they bring children to these places.

82
00:03:46.639 --> 00:03:50.840
<v Speaker 2>In a bus. You don't do that.

83
00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:53.520
<v Speaker 4>We do that, and we still have to go to work.

84
00:03:54.240 --> 00:03:55.960
<v Speaker 4>So anyways, I just had to get that out of

85
00:03:55.960 --> 00:03:58.000
<v Speaker 4>the way. If I didn't, it would it would it

86
00:03:58.000 --> 00:03:59.919
<v Speaker 4>would linger. And I just I want to I want

87
00:03:59.919 --> 00:04:00.479
<v Speaker 4>to get it out.

88
00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:01.560
<v Speaker 2>Of the way, all right.

89
00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:02.840
<v Speaker 4>So we got a lot to get into today. I

90
00:04:02.919 --> 00:04:07.240
<v Speaker 4>mean a loaded night of college basketball. I mean, I

91
00:04:07.560 --> 00:04:11.199
<v Speaker 4>think this is the time where college basketball gets the

92
00:04:11.240 --> 00:04:14.400
<v Speaker 4>most attention, meaning I mean it gets the most attention

93
00:04:14.439 --> 00:04:15.919
<v Speaker 4>in March madness. I guess what I meant to say

94
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:18.399
<v Speaker 4>was when it comes to the regular season. From here

95
00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:22.240
<v Speaker 4>until really Selection Sunday on, this is where you start

96
00:04:22.240 --> 00:04:24.360
<v Speaker 4>to see college basketball kind of move to the forefront

97
00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:28.160
<v Speaker 4>a little bit. Because you're getting closer to March. Football

98
00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:31.600
<v Speaker 4>season is officially over. The NBA, I mean, it's still

99
00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:34.120
<v Speaker 4>going on, but man, the regular season product of the

100
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:37.160
<v Speaker 4>NBA is just trash. The people who I know that

101
00:04:37.279 --> 00:04:40.279
<v Speaker 4>really like the NBA, that'll talk NBA with your NonStop,

102
00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:42.199
<v Speaker 4>that'll just you know, they'll tell you about all the trades.

103
00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:44.639
<v Speaker 4>They want to talk about what this team's doing this.

104
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:47.199
<v Speaker 4>They don't watch the games. They just they keep up

105
00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:49.639
<v Speaker 4>with it because you know, it's active, there's drama, and

106
00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:52.279
<v Speaker 4>I guess that's good for the NBA. But I think

107
00:04:52.319 --> 00:04:54.680
<v Speaker 4>college basketball can benefit from it because you will see

108
00:04:54.800 --> 00:04:56.959
<v Speaker 4>some good games. I think, I mean, I think you

109
00:04:57.000 --> 00:04:59.959
<v Speaker 4>see good games all year. But the schedule set up

110
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:02.720
<v Speaker 4>nicely because just two days from Super Bowl, so I

111
00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:05.959
<v Speaker 4>guess removed from Super Bowl Sunday, we have an insane

112
00:05:06.079 --> 00:05:09.319
<v Speaker 4>slate of games. Tonight, you got Tennessee at Kentucky. That's

113
00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:11.600
<v Speaker 4>number five verse number fifteen. We'll certainly talk about that

114
00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:11.959
<v Speaker 4>match up.

115
00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:12.319
<v Speaker 2>Today.

116
00:05:13.040 --> 00:05:16.920
<v Speaker 4>You've got Purdue at Michigan. That's number seven versus number twenty.

117
00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:20.560
<v Speaker 4>You've got Florida on the road at Mississippi State that's

118
00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:23.480
<v Speaker 4>number three versus number twenty two. So right there, you

119
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:26.959
<v Speaker 4>got three top twenty five matchups, three matchups that feature

120
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:31.480
<v Speaker 4>ranked teams, and then Auburn at Vandy. That's not big time,

121
00:05:31.519 --> 00:05:33.480
<v Speaker 4>but hey, Auburn's the number one team in the country,

122
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:36.040
<v Speaker 4>and Vandy has shown they can knock off some big

123
00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:38.839
<v Speaker 4>dogs whenever they are at home. They did it to Tennessee,

124
00:05:38.879 --> 00:05:41.639
<v Speaker 4>they did it to Kentucky, and then Arizona.

125
00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:42.879
<v Speaker 2>I mean, this is a West Coast game.

126
00:05:42.879 --> 00:05:44.360
<v Speaker 4>I'm not sure how much people will care about this,

127
00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:47.839
<v Speaker 4>but Arizona, who's done a really good job at getting

128
00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:49.600
<v Speaker 4>it roll and once they got to Big twelve play,

129
00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:51.439
<v Speaker 4>I was gonna say Pac twelve, I keep forgetting they're

130
00:05:51.480 --> 00:05:55.519
<v Speaker 4>in the Big twelve. But Arizona, they've been easily one

131
00:05:55.519 --> 00:05:57.360
<v Speaker 4>of the best teams in the Big twelve. And they're

132
00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:00.079
<v Speaker 4>at Kansas State and Kansastate team that really struggled and

133
00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:02.920
<v Speaker 4>has not had a good year, but they've at times,

134
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:04.759
<v Speaker 4>at least in the last few weeks, kind of shown

135
00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:07.120
<v Speaker 4>they can still be dangerous. And then Indiana is at

136
00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:10.319
<v Speaker 4>Michigan State. I mean, that's a big matchup with two

137
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:13.319
<v Speaker 4>big brands. But with Indiana, I mean, if you're an

138
00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:15.040
<v Speaker 4>IU fan, are you just waiting for it to end?

139
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:18.560
<v Speaker 4>I mean, you know Woodson's moving on. I think fans

140
00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:21.519
<v Speaker 4>are happy about that, right. I think they are excited

141
00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:25.759
<v Speaker 4>to get a you know, a new start with a

142
00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:29.680
<v Speaker 4>new leader that's not Mike Woodson. So if he wins,

143
00:06:29.720 --> 00:06:32.160
<v Speaker 4>do you worry about maybe him deciding not to retire?

144
00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:34.639
<v Speaker 4>Like it'd be a really crappy situation to be in

145
00:06:34.680 --> 00:06:36.480
<v Speaker 4>as an Indiana fan, because you're always gonna want your

146
00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:41.240
<v Speaker 4>team to win. But any real sign of success, like

147
00:06:41.279 --> 00:06:43.279
<v Speaker 4>if they got hot and really went on a roll

148
00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:47.240
<v Speaker 4>and somehow found themselves in the NAA Tournament, I mean,

149
00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:50.360
<v Speaker 4>wouldn't wouldn't that lead to likely Woodson not wanting to

150
00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:52.120
<v Speaker 4>step down? And you want him to step down. You

151
00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:55.439
<v Speaker 4>want him to walk away because if you if you

152
00:06:55.480 --> 00:06:57.839
<v Speaker 4>can't convince him to walk peacefully, then you're gonna have

153
00:06:57.879 --> 00:06:59.120
<v Speaker 4>to fire him and pay him a lot of money.

154
00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:05.879
<v Speaker 4>Some other big games tonight Yukon at Creighton, Alabama at Texas,

155
00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:09.399
<v Speaker 4>and then George's at Texas A and M, which I

156
00:07:09.399 --> 00:07:12.519
<v Speaker 4>only mentioned that because Texas A and M happens to

157
00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:14.639
<v Speaker 4>be a top ten team right now. So a loaded

158
00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:15.800
<v Speaker 4>college basketball night.

159
00:07:15.879 --> 00:07:16.360
<v Speaker 2>I love it.

160
00:07:16.720 --> 00:07:18.959
<v Speaker 4>I said it a week ago, maybe even two weeks ago,

161
00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:19.800
<v Speaker 4>So I've got a.

162
00:07:19.720 --> 00:07:20.480
<v Speaker 2>Head start on you, guys.

163
00:07:20.519 --> 00:07:22.839
<v Speaker 4>If you're not already locked in and taking advantage of

164
00:07:22.879 --> 00:07:25.360
<v Speaker 4>what we have here a good college basketball season, you

165
00:07:25.399 --> 00:07:27.600
<v Speaker 4>might as well. I mean, you need to buckle up,

166
00:07:27.639 --> 00:07:30.120
<v Speaker 4>get ready because this season will be over before you

167
00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:33.160
<v Speaker 4>know it. And I love college basketball maybe more than

168
00:07:33.199 --> 00:07:36.120
<v Speaker 4>I love anything outside of you know, my family and

169
00:07:37.399 --> 00:07:40.600
<v Speaker 4>other non sports things. So if you wanted to just

170
00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:43.480
<v Speaker 4>dive in and consume college hoops at a high rate

171
00:07:43.519 --> 00:07:45.800
<v Speaker 4>tonight regardless of rooting interest, tonight's a good night to

172
00:07:45.839 --> 00:07:47.680
<v Speaker 4>get it started. We're gonna talk some college basketball coming

173
00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:50.920
<v Speaker 4>up around four thirty with Kevin Sweeney, who covers college

174
00:07:50.959 --> 00:07:55.079
<v Speaker 4>basketball for Sports Illustrated, so I'm looking forward to catching

175
00:07:55.160 --> 00:07:57.040
<v Speaker 4>up with him. And there's all kinds of other stuff

176
00:07:57.079 --> 00:07:58.959
<v Speaker 4>we need to get into today before we run out

177
00:07:59.000 --> 00:08:00.800
<v Speaker 4>of times. So if you got want to take us

178
00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:02.399
<v Speaker 4>with you wherever you go, just know that you can.

179
00:08:02.439 --> 00:08:04.240
<v Speaker 4>You can listen live on the iHeart Radio I listen

180
00:08:04.319 --> 00:08:07.360
<v Speaker 4>live at seven ninety Louisville dot com and we'll open

181
00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:09.519
<v Speaker 4>up the phone lines after we get to our first

182
00:08:09.519 --> 00:08:12.360
<v Speaker 4>break here coming up in just a few minutes. Five two,

183
00:08:12.360 --> 00:08:14.720
<v Speaker 4>five seven, one seventy nine hundred is the number. I

184
00:08:14.759 --> 00:08:16.240
<v Speaker 4>do want to mind you once again. We are fueled

185
00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:19.319
<v Speaker 4>by Thornton's, so keep them in mind. I know they've

186
00:08:19.360 --> 00:08:22.199
<v Speaker 4>got a lot of reasons you should stop in, but

187
00:08:23.040 --> 00:08:25.399
<v Speaker 4>the food, I mean. I had one of their reb

188
00:08:25.399 --> 00:08:29.879
<v Speaker 4>breakfast sandwiches over the weekend, and I'll stand by it.

189
00:08:30.439 --> 00:08:32.440
<v Speaker 4>Not that I was wavering, not that I was thinking

190
00:08:32.440 --> 00:08:35.039
<v Speaker 4>maybe my mind would change. But on Saturday morning, I

191
00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:38.120
<v Speaker 4>had a nice sausage, egg and cheese croissant from Thornton's

192
00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:40.840
<v Speaker 4>and it it It's just as good as it's ever been.

193
00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:44.039
<v Speaker 4>Best breakfast sandwich you will find. But they've got other options, donuts,

194
00:08:44.279 --> 00:08:46.759
<v Speaker 4>they've got good lunch menu items, they've got chicken wings,

195
00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:49.600
<v Speaker 4>they've got pizza now, and we're not talking about you know,

196
00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:53.440
<v Speaker 4>that real gross looking stuff that sits under some kind

197
00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:56.039
<v Speaker 4>of a heat lamp. Thornton's has folks who their job,

198
00:08:56.159 --> 00:08:59.919
<v Speaker 4>Their role within the Thornton's family is to prepare high quality,

199
00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:03.200
<v Speaker 4>fresh food. So again, they have like actual chefs at

200
00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:04.519
<v Speaker 4>the oh yeah, and a kitchen.

201
00:09:04.679 --> 00:09:04.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

202
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:08.000
<v Speaker 4>Props to the chef because they're they keep cranking out

203
00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:09.240
<v Speaker 4>the phenomenal foods.

204
00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:13.000
<v Speaker 2>So shout out to them. All right. I got to

205
00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:13.600
<v Speaker 2>get this out of the way.

206
00:09:13.639 --> 00:09:15.440
<v Speaker 4>This is one of those things that I probably probably

207
00:09:15.519 --> 00:09:19.519
<v Speaker 4>shouldn't mention, but I but I can't help it. This

208
00:09:19.679 --> 00:09:21.759
<v Speaker 4>is a release for me to just get it out there,

209
00:09:21.960 --> 00:09:22.639
<v Speaker 4>put it out.

210
00:09:22.480 --> 00:09:25.320
<v Speaker 2>Into the world and and not hold it in.

211
00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:27.200
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I can't make up for what happened on

212
00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:30.159
<v Speaker 4>the way here, but I gotta at least talk about it,

213
00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:32.240
<v Speaker 4>because I need somebody to tell me what you would

214
00:09:32.240 --> 00:09:33.000
<v Speaker 4>have done if you were me.

215
00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:39.200
<v Speaker 2>So I get off at the at the Broadway, No,

216
00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:40.159
<v Speaker 2>not Broadway again.

217
00:09:40.200 --> 00:09:41.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm gonna pull up the map here because I actually

218
00:09:42.000 --> 00:09:43.720
<v Speaker 4>had it in front of me earlier, because I knew

219
00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:45.759
<v Speaker 4>I was going to discuss this, and I know how

220
00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:48.080
<v Speaker 4>to get where I need to get to downtown Louisville,

221
00:09:48.159 --> 00:09:51.159
<v Speaker 4>just about anywhere. But I'm not very good at the

222
00:09:51.440 --> 00:09:56.519
<v Speaker 4>you know, the the exits. So I get off at

223
00:09:57.240 --> 00:10:00.320
<v Speaker 4>I guess it's I can't think of what the up

224
00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:04.559
<v Speaker 4>on West Broadway. I take West Broadway down to fifth Street.

225
00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:07.399
<v Speaker 4>That's that's that, and then I just ride Fifth. I

226
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:09.320
<v Speaker 4>ride Fifth Street all the way down because the Fourth

227
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:11.559
<v Speaker 4>Street Live Garage, which is where we are Fourth Street Live,

228
00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:14.559
<v Speaker 4>the garage entrance is actually on Fifth Street. So I

229
00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:17.039
<v Speaker 4>am I am on, I'm right about the Brown Hotel

230
00:10:17.440 --> 00:10:21.639
<v Speaker 4>on Broadway about to turn right on Fifth. And you know,

231
00:10:22.679 --> 00:10:25.759
<v Speaker 4>I hate driving downtown for a variety of reasons. The

232
00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:29.519
<v Speaker 4>nobody really like lanes don't matter. You know, people just

233
00:10:29.639 --> 00:10:32.519
<v Speaker 4>kind of hover wherever. I mean, people will just get

234
00:10:32.519 --> 00:10:34.200
<v Speaker 4>out of their car and abandon it in the middle

235
00:10:34.200 --> 00:10:35.720
<v Speaker 4>of the road if they got to run in somewhere

236
00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:38.799
<v Speaker 4>like it downtown Louisville. At times, I feel like it's

237
00:10:38.919 --> 00:10:41.399
<v Speaker 4>just like do whatever you want and see if anybody notices.

238
00:10:41.879 --> 00:10:46.120
<v Speaker 4>So I'm often changing lanes trying to get to where

239
00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:48.559
<v Speaker 4>I need to get to because my issue with downtown

240
00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:51.559
<v Speaker 4>is even when there's very little to no traffic, you

241
00:10:51.639 --> 00:10:55.519
<v Speaker 4>really can't get anywhere quickly because the lights suck. And

242
00:10:56.039 --> 00:10:57.960
<v Speaker 4>I get why they do it, but I think if

243
00:10:57.960 --> 00:11:01.039
<v Speaker 4>they reset and did I'm kind of an audit on

244
00:11:01.080 --> 00:11:04.440
<v Speaker 4>the amount of people walking around downtown, they would understand

245
00:11:04.440 --> 00:11:05.919
<v Speaker 4>they don't need to have it set up the way

246
00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:08.080
<v Speaker 4>they've always had it set up, which means the lights

247
00:11:08.080 --> 00:11:11.120
<v Speaker 4>are more set up for people walking than people driving.

248
00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:15.000
<v Speaker 4>Way more vehicles on the road in downtown Louisville than

249
00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:17.440
<v Speaker 4>people walking. I mean, I think that's been the case

250
00:11:17.480 --> 00:11:20.320
<v Speaker 4>for a long time. But you see the light that

251
00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:22.399
<v Speaker 4>it is green, and you're waiting for it to go red.

252
00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:24.440
<v Speaker 4>So you get a green light like a four way stop,

253
00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:27.919
<v Speaker 4>well it'll go red and you wait like five seconds

254
00:11:27.960 --> 00:11:29.480
<v Speaker 4>before you get the green And it's because they just

255
00:11:29.480 --> 00:11:31.600
<v Speaker 4>assume people are walking, and more often than not, they're not.

256
00:11:32.159 --> 00:11:35.039
<v Speaker 4>So anyways, I'm running a little bit behind today. I

257
00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:37.279
<v Speaker 4>mean I got here in time, but I'm not wanting

258
00:11:37.279 --> 00:11:40.039
<v Speaker 4>to sit behind people. I mean, you've got so anyways,

259
00:11:40.039 --> 00:11:43.720
<v Speaker 4>long story short, I end up getting over two lanes,

260
00:11:44.080 --> 00:11:46.320
<v Speaker 4>had my signal and it wasn't really I mean, I

261
00:11:46.399 --> 00:11:51.080
<v Speaker 4>wasn't driving poorly, but there's a bus stop area right past.

262
00:11:51.240 --> 00:11:54.399
<v Speaker 4>I mean it's probably like one hundred yards is ish

263
00:11:54.559 --> 00:11:58.000
<v Speaker 4>before you turn right on Fifth Street, and it's like

264
00:11:58.039 --> 00:12:00.720
<v Speaker 4>something out of a movie. I've never seen it happened

265
00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:04.519
<v Speaker 4>in real life. I've never been a part of it,

266
00:12:04.559 --> 00:12:06.840
<v Speaker 4>good or bad in real life. But it happened today,

267
00:12:06.919 --> 00:12:10.600
<v Speaker 4>and I am guilty of doing something that I can't

268
00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:14.440
<v Speaker 4>stop thinking about. There was somebody inching out towards the street,

269
00:12:14.600 --> 00:12:16.399
<v Speaker 4>not to walk on the street, but they were just

270
00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:18.559
<v Speaker 4>getting closer to the curve because I think they wanted

271
00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:21.279
<v Speaker 4>to see if maybe the bus was coming, the tarkbus.

272
00:12:21.559 --> 00:12:24.519
<v Speaker 4>And as they're getting closer, I had just shifted over

273
00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:27.080
<v Speaker 4>to the far right lane to go around somebody to

274
00:12:27.159 --> 00:12:30.720
<v Speaker 4>turn you to turn right, and obviously a lot of

275
00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:33.919
<v Speaker 4>water on the roadways right and I hit that puddle

276
00:12:34.360 --> 00:12:37.960
<v Speaker 4>and I saw the water go up. I saw the

277
00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:40.919
<v Speaker 4>person to my right move. I tried to look into

278
00:12:40.919 --> 00:12:43.879
<v Speaker 4>my rear view and I couldn't see what happened. But

279
00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:47.519
<v Speaker 4>I hope they got out of the way, because I mean,

280
00:12:47.919 --> 00:12:50.600
<v Speaker 4>if not, it would have been again it was terrible timing.

281
00:12:50.799 --> 00:12:53.120
<v Speaker 4>Timing is everything in life. This was bad timing. I

282
00:12:53.159 --> 00:12:55.840
<v Speaker 4>had just gotten to the far right lane. They had

283
00:12:55.919 --> 00:12:58.639
<v Speaker 4>just walked up. Just it's almost like they know that happens,

284
00:12:59.120 --> 00:13:01.879
<v Speaker 4>because they probably that's the regular routine is to wait

285
00:13:01.919 --> 00:13:04.399
<v Speaker 4>for the bus. So if it's wet and the roads

286
00:13:04.440 --> 00:13:06.480
<v Speaker 4>are like they are today, they know that could that

287
00:13:06.519 --> 00:13:09.360
<v Speaker 4>could happen. And I never would usually ride in that

288
00:13:09.399 --> 00:13:11.639
<v Speaker 4>far right lane because honestly, it's really small, Like I

289
00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:13.720
<v Speaker 4>feel like I'm gonna hit the curb or I'm gonna.

290
00:13:13.519 --> 00:13:14.039
<v Speaker 2>Hit a car.

291
00:13:14.080 --> 00:13:16.639
<v Speaker 4>Like you got to some of these roads like broadways

292
00:13:16.639 --> 00:13:18.360
<v Speaker 4>four lanes, I mean, you might as well stay in

293
00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:20.559
<v Speaker 4>between the middle ones because the ones on the far

294
00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:21.360
<v Speaker 4>left are far right.

295
00:13:21.480 --> 00:13:23.000
<v Speaker 2>Like I don't I mean, I don't know how you

296
00:13:23.039 --> 00:13:23.720
<v Speaker 2>don't hit people.

297
00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:27.080
<v Speaker 4>So I hope that person didn't get hit, but I

298
00:13:27.200 --> 00:13:28.799
<v Speaker 4>kind of feel like they did. But I don't know

299
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:30.840
<v Speaker 4>what I should have done. I mean, had I parked

300
00:13:30.840 --> 00:13:32.519
<v Speaker 4>the car, I would have been the a hole that

301
00:13:32.559 --> 00:13:33.360
<v Speaker 4>I just referred to.

302
00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:35.200
<v Speaker 2>They just decides to stop their.

303
00:13:35.039 --> 00:13:39.039
<v Speaker 4>Car and you know, hope somebody says something and what

304
00:13:38.759 --> 00:13:39.840
<v Speaker 4>I was, What would I've said?

305
00:13:40.039 --> 00:13:40.960
<v Speaker 2>I didn't have a towel.

306
00:13:41.360 --> 00:13:44.240
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I mean, they wouldn't have wanted an apology, right,

307
00:13:44.600 --> 00:13:47.919
<v Speaker 4>But I'm just thinking about some sad human being sitting

308
00:13:47.919 --> 00:13:50.279
<v Speaker 4>on the bus. It's thirty four degrees outside and they

309
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:54.279
<v Speaker 4>might be soaking wet with dirty road water because of me.

310
00:13:54.960 --> 00:13:56.600
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's a that's a that's a tough thing

311
00:13:56.639 --> 00:13:58.879
<v Speaker 2>to carry, right, That's happened to me before. Like if

312
00:13:58.919 --> 00:14:02.080
<v Speaker 2>I've been that person, oh man and it's got to

313
00:14:02.120 --> 00:14:04.399
<v Speaker 2>be the worst thing ever, right, Yeah, Oh it's terrible.

314
00:14:04.440 --> 00:14:08.480
<v Speaker 3>I mean a thing too. It's terrible, But also it

315
00:14:08.519 --> 00:14:10.720
<v Speaker 3>isn't well. I don't know if it's a mental thing

316
00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:12.960
<v Speaker 3>for me. I just feel like that person just hated me.

317
00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:14.639
<v Speaker 3>But they couldn't have known. I think it was in

318
00:14:14.679 --> 00:14:16.519
<v Speaker 3>New York when it happened. Yeah, I was in New York.

319
00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:18.639
<v Speaker 3>There's a lot of hustle and bustle going on there,

320
00:14:18.679 --> 00:14:20.840
<v Speaker 3>and I think it was it had just rained the

321
00:14:20.919 --> 00:14:23.799
<v Speaker 3>night before, so there's puddles everywhere, and I guess, And

322
00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:26.639
<v Speaker 3>I happened to be walking on that side of the sidewalk,

323
00:14:26.639 --> 00:14:28.399
<v Speaker 3>and I had told myself, probably I should get on

324
00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:31.559
<v Speaker 3>this side of the sidewalk because my fiance was on

325
00:14:31.600 --> 00:14:33.600
<v Speaker 3>that side. And that's supposed to be the gentleman thing

326
00:14:33.639 --> 00:14:36.200
<v Speaker 3>to do, right in the one and one hundred case

327
00:14:36.240 --> 00:14:38.639
<v Speaker 3>that that happens, you have to stay on that inside

328
00:14:38.679 --> 00:14:41.200
<v Speaker 3>of the sidewalk part. It's inside of the outside of

329
00:14:41.200 --> 00:14:43.480
<v Speaker 3>the sidewalk, just so I that happens, And it did,

330
00:14:43.480 --> 00:14:44.159
<v Speaker 3>and it happened to me.

331
00:14:44.320 --> 00:14:46.440
<v Speaker 4>So so did it get did it go like over

332
00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:48.080
<v Speaker 4>your head or just like your feet?

333
00:14:48.159 --> 00:14:49.399
<v Speaker 2>What was it? It was?

334
00:14:49.480 --> 00:14:52.360
<v Speaker 3>I think it's probably like from the waist down is

335
00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:53.120
<v Speaker 3>where it got me.

336
00:14:53.159 --> 00:14:56.360
<v Speaker 4>But that's just terrible luck, terrible timing. So it for

337
00:14:56.440 --> 00:14:58.320
<v Speaker 4>it to happen to you, and I think when it

338
00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:01.720
<v Speaker 4>happens to you, you would just assume that you were

339
00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:03.039
<v Speaker 4>meant to be cursed or something.

340
00:15:03.080 --> 00:15:04.519
<v Speaker 2>Right, Yeah, it's like that sucks.

341
00:15:06.159 --> 00:15:08.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, And again timing like it couldn't have been worse

342
00:15:08.120 --> 00:15:10.879
<v Speaker 4>because I accelerated to go around this car and then boom,

343
00:15:10.879 --> 00:15:14.080
<v Speaker 4>there's there's this, I mean, and then as soon as

344
00:15:14.080 --> 00:15:16.720
<v Speaker 4>I hit it and I saw them moving, I looked up.

345
00:15:17.240 --> 00:15:19.639
<v Speaker 4>I looked up in my rear view in the mirror

346
00:15:19.679 --> 00:15:21.759
<v Speaker 4>that's you know, right above me, and I didn't see anything.

347
00:15:21.759 --> 00:15:24.240
<v Speaker 4>And then I looked to the to the driver's side

348
00:15:24.279 --> 00:15:26.559
<v Speaker 4>mirror and I could see.

349
00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:27.200
<v Speaker 2>That the I mean it was.

350
00:15:27.399 --> 00:15:29.080
<v Speaker 4>I mean, you would have thought I was just looking

351
00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:31.559
<v Speaker 4>at a new water ride they had at Hurricane Bay,

352
00:15:31.639 --> 00:15:31.879
<v Speaker 4>I mean.

353
00:15:32.039 --> 00:15:34.000
<v Speaker 2>And so I don't think it just got their legs.

354
00:15:34.039 --> 00:15:36.799
<v Speaker 4>I think I gave them a full on, like they

355
00:15:36.879 --> 00:15:39.759
<v Speaker 4>just got drenched from head to toe because of again,

356
00:15:39.840 --> 00:15:42.120
<v Speaker 4>like I accelerated and hit the puddle like I was

357
00:15:42.279 --> 00:15:43.080
<v Speaker 4>trying to do it.

358
00:15:43.159 --> 00:15:44.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and it didn't catch the reaction.

359
00:15:45.000 --> 00:15:47.679
<v Speaker 3>Your thing was just to just keep on going out

360
00:15:47.679 --> 00:15:48.639
<v Speaker 3>of sight, out of mind.

361
00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:50.679
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I'm thinking from the I mean for the

362
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:52.240
<v Speaker 4>next one. I mean I haven't been able to stuff

363
00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:54.000
<v Speaker 4>think about it since it happened, because like that would

364
00:15:54.000 --> 00:15:56.600
<v Speaker 4>be terrible and and I think in a way they

365
00:15:56.679 --> 00:15:59.360
<v Speaker 4>might believe I did it intentionally, but maybe, but I

366
00:15:59.360 --> 00:16:02.080
<v Speaker 4>don't know the way they they kind of peeked out

367
00:16:02.200 --> 00:16:04.159
<v Speaker 4>from behind the little the little I don't know what

368
00:16:04.240 --> 00:16:06.559
<v Speaker 4>it's called, but it's where you can sit and you

369
00:16:06.559 --> 00:16:08.519
<v Speaker 4>can be covered to an extent when you're waiting for

370
00:16:08.519 --> 00:16:11.399
<v Speaker 4>the bus. They weren't inside that because it's not raining now,

371
00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:13.240
<v Speaker 4>but they were kind of like behind it. It's almost

372
00:16:13.279 --> 00:16:15.559
<v Speaker 4>like people who sit at that spot for the bus

373
00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:17.480
<v Speaker 4>stop where you can actually, you know, like be covered.

374
00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:18.960
<v Speaker 2>I can't, I can't think what it's called.

375
00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:22.720
<v Speaker 4>But it's almost like they were afraid to even stand

376
00:16:22.759 --> 00:16:24.879
<v Speaker 4>in there or sit in there because even then you

377
00:16:24.879 --> 00:16:27.960
<v Speaker 4>could still get hit with water, right, And so they

378
00:16:28.000 --> 00:16:30.679
<v Speaker 4>had they had safe distance. And then all of a sudden,

379
00:16:30.799 --> 00:16:32.600
<v Speaker 4>this person I think it was a woman too, which

380
00:16:32.600 --> 00:16:34.159
<v Speaker 4>makes you feel even worse, to be honest with you,

381
00:16:34.519 --> 00:16:36.799
<v Speaker 4>she she's inching out towards the curb and then here

382
00:16:36.840 --> 00:16:38.840
<v Speaker 4>I come boat. She tried to get out of the way,

383
00:16:39.279 --> 00:16:40.720
<v Speaker 4>and I don't know. I think I might have wiped

384
00:16:40.720 --> 00:16:42.840
<v Speaker 4>her out. I mean, I didn't hit her, but you

385
00:16:42.919 --> 00:16:45.360
<v Speaker 4>know what I mean, Like I feel terrible. You know,

386
00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:47.840
<v Speaker 4>I'm somebody that can can know that I had no

387
00:16:48.039 --> 00:16:51.440
<v Speaker 4>bad intention. Sure, and I can know that the person,

388
00:16:51.519 --> 00:16:53.320
<v Speaker 4>you know, this person doesn't know who I am. They

389
00:16:53.360 --> 00:16:55.399
<v Speaker 4>would maybe know that I didn't have any bad intention,

390
00:16:55.480 --> 00:16:57.799
<v Speaker 4>but like, I don't. I that's a helpless feeling. And

391
00:16:57.840 --> 00:16:59.600
<v Speaker 4>here I am sounding like the victim.

392
00:16:59.919 --> 00:17:00.279
<v Speaker 1>I do.

393
00:17:00.320 --> 00:17:01.080
<v Speaker 2>I feel so bad.

394
00:17:01.159 --> 00:17:04.000
<v Speaker 4>I'm not the one drenched in dirty road water, you

395
00:17:04.039 --> 00:17:05.799
<v Speaker 4>know what I'm saying, Like it just it's a it's

396
00:17:05.839 --> 00:17:07.400
<v Speaker 4>a helpless feeling, and I don't I don't know what

397
00:17:07.440 --> 00:17:07.759
<v Speaker 4>to do.

398
00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:09.799
<v Speaker 2>But I don't know what I could have done.

399
00:17:09.720 --> 00:17:11.119
<v Speaker 4>Right, Like if i'd have got out of the car,

400
00:17:11.319 --> 00:17:13.000
<v Speaker 4>I mean, what would I have said, Oh, sorry, I

401
00:17:13.000 --> 00:17:13.480
<v Speaker 4>didn't mean to.

402
00:17:13.519 --> 00:17:14.160
<v Speaker 2>I guess sorry.

403
00:17:14.279 --> 00:17:16.240
<v Speaker 4>I guess that would have been a courtesy, But I

404
00:17:16.279 --> 00:17:18.200
<v Speaker 4>doubt they would have met me with oh it's okay,

405
00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:20.880
<v Speaker 4>no big deal, have a good day, thanks for stopping.

406
00:17:20.920 --> 00:17:23.319
<v Speaker 4>Could have been some cuss words. Yeah, Like it's what

407
00:17:23.319 --> 00:17:25.920
<v Speaker 4>are you doing. Guy never reminds me of one time.

408
00:17:26.279 --> 00:17:28.880
<v Speaker 4>This was when we were we were I prime, I

409
00:17:28.920 --> 00:17:31.559
<v Speaker 4>don't know, it's probably twenty one, twenty two, maybe younger.

410
00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:34.359
<v Speaker 2>I was about to admit to a couple of years ago.

411
00:17:34.440 --> 00:17:35.680
<v Speaker 4>I was about Yeah, I was about to meet to

412
00:17:35.720 --> 00:17:37.519
<v Speaker 4>a crime because I think I was drinking at a concert.

413
00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:39.440
<v Speaker 2>But I wasn't of age. Don't ask me how it happened.

414
00:17:39.480 --> 00:17:40.119
<v Speaker 2>It just happened.

415
00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:43.359
<v Speaker 4>But we were at This was when Kenny Chesney came

416
00:17:43.440 --> 00:17:47.039
<v Speaker 4>to At the time, it was Papa John's Cardinal Stadium, right,

417
00:17:47.079 --> 00:17:49.480
<v Speaker 4>And you might not even have lived here at the

418
00:17:49.519 --> 00:17:51.680
<v Speaker 4>time because I was I was really young. But Kenny

419
00:17:51.759 --> 00:17:56.119
<v Speaker 4>Chesney and then the the what's the band's name? That

420
00:17:56.200 --> 00:17:59.079
<v Speaker 4>the little big town maybe that sounds about right. And

421
00:17:59.079 --> 00:18:01.039
<v Speaker 4>then there was another I did been Toby Keith, like

422
00:18:01.079 --> 00:18:04.839
<v Speaker 4>there was a huge concert at Cardinal Stadium, talking like

423
00:18:04.839 --> 00:18:08.720
<v Speaker 4>two thousand and eight maybe, and I had a full

424
00:18:08.759 --> 00:18:11.319
<v Speaker 4>you know, we're talking so think of like the crunt

425
00:18:11.400 --> 00:18:14.039
<v Speaker 4>zone area of the football stadium so like. And by

426
00:18:14.039 --> 00:18:15.599
<v Speaker 4>the way, they hadn't even they hadn't even expanded the

427
00:18:15.599 --> 00:18:17.680
<v Speaker 4>stadium yet, that's how long ago this was. Wow, So

428
00:18:17.720 --> 00:18:21.240
<v Speaker 4>we're you know, we're up towards I mean, we're probably

429
00:18:21.279 --> 00:18:22.759
<v Speaker 4>as far away as you could actually be, to be

430
00:18:22.759 --> 00:18:24.200
<v Speaker 4>honest with you, But because of how it was set up,

431
00:18:24.240 --> 00:18:25.680
<v Speaker 4>it was great. And I was hammered. So I don't

432
00:18:25.680 --> 00:18:27.759
<v Speaker 4>really remember like if it was a bad experience as

433
00:18:27.799 --> 00:18:30.119
<v Speaker 4>far as seats. But anyways, my wife and I were

434
00:18:30.119 --> 00:18:32.200
<v Speaker 4>walking to we weren't even married yet, but we were

435
00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:35.039
<v Speaker 4>walking to our seats, and she was kind of, you know,

436
00:18:35.160 --> 00:18:37.400
<v Speaker 4>she was a little woozy because of the steps.

437
00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:38.960
<v Speaker 2>So I had both of our beers.

438
00:18:39.160 --> 00:18:42.559
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and I happened to quite literally drop an entire beer,

439
00:18:43.680 --> 00:18:47.960
<v Speaker 4>a little plastic cup of beer, and it just fell

440
00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:51.359
<v Speaker 4>right on somebody's head below me, and like they turned around,

441
00:18:51.400 --> 00:18:54.359
<v Speaker 4>and I'm thinking, like what can I say? What? You know,

442
00:18:55.240 --> 00:18:57.039
<v Speaker 4>I'm just thinking, all right, you're gonna punch me in

443
00:18:57.039 --> 00:18:58.880
<v Speaker 4>the face, just do it, please, because like I don't

444
00:18:58.880 --> 00:19:01.200
<v Speaker 4>know what I can say. I can't It was an accident,

445
00:19:01.240 --> 00:19:02.880
<v Speaker 4>but you don't want to hear it was an accident. Yeah,

446
00:19:02.920 --> 00:19:05.200
<v Speaker 4>you're drenched in beer, so like it. You know, I

447
00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:08.440
<v Speaker 4>it sucks. But again here I am complaining about it.

448
00:19:08.480 --> 00:19:12.400
<v Speaker 4>Whenever the people who were the victims of my nonsense,

449
00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:13.440
<v Speaker 4>they're the ones who you're.

450
00:19:13.359 --> 00:19:14.480
<v Speaker 2>Going to be drenching anything.

451
00:19:14.480 --> 00:19:17.480
<v Speaker 3>You'd rather be beer, right than some muddy.

452
00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:19.319
<v Speaker 4>Snow wise And I remember briefly thinking like, well, maybe

453
00:19:19.359 --> 00:19:23.440
<v Speaker 4>they'll understand and like we'll party together because it was

454
00:19:23.480 --> 00:19:25.359
<v Speaker 4>a mistake and maybe they're drunk to where they don't

455
00:19:25.359 --> 00:19:27.960
<v Speaker 4>even mind wearing beer. And then it wasn't that, and

456
00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:29.720
<v Speaker 4>it was just an awkward thing where I just wanted

457
00:19:29.759 --> 00:19:31.680
<v Speaker 4>to go crawl in a hole and die. Yikes, like

458
00:19:31.720 --> 00:19:33.720
<v Speaker 4>a total lost lost my buzz too, by the way,

459
00:19:33.720 --> 00:19:35.599
<v Speaker 4>Like I was just like I was. I was miserable

460
00:19:35.640 --> 00:19:37.359
<v Speaker 4>the rest of the concert, feeling like such an a hole,

461
00:19:37.400 --> 00:19:39.359
<v Speaker 4>like not knowing what I could do. You killed your

462
00:19:39.359 --> 00:19:41.480
<v Speaker 4>own buzz, yeah, And you know I even offered to

463
00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:43.920
<v Speaker 4>I think I offered to buy a beer, like after

464
00:19:43.960 --> 00:19:46.279
<v Speaker 4>the fact, like to make it up, and like they

465
00:19:46.319 --> 00:19:48.039
<v Speaker 4>didn't even answer me, like they just wouldn't look at me.

466
00:19:48.079 --> 00:19:49.240
<v Speaker 4>And I'm like, oh, man, I would.

467
00:19:49.079 --> 00:19:49.559
<v Speaker 2>Hate me too.

468
00:19:49.640 --> 00:19:51.519
<v Speaker 3>Well, you should have some you should have some good

469
00:19:51.519 --> 00:19:53.720
<v Speaker 3>conscience and knowing that you tried to do everything that

470
00:19:53.759 --> 00:19:56.359
<v Speaker 3>you can, because I feel like that's the cursy, is

471
00:19:56.400 --> 00:19:58.880
<v Speaker 3>it not. Yeah, that's got to be the courtesy afterwards,

472
00:19:58.920 --> 00:20:01.079
<v Speaker 3>Like it's can I buy you a you know, like, what.

473
00:20:00.960 --> 00:20:02.640
<v Speaker 2>Can you do? Do you want to hit me? Do

474
00:20:02.680 --> 00:20:05.880
<v Speaker 2>you get one free shot? Yes? I mean it was

475
00:20:06.480 --> 00:20:07.039
<v Speaker 2>it was rough.

476
00:20:07.079 --> 00:20:08.880
<v Speaker 4>So if you are somebody, I don't know, maybe they're

477
00:20:08.960 --> 00:20:12.000
<v Speaker 4>maybe they're listening now on the iHeartRadio app and they're like, yeah,

478
00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:15.920
<v Speaker 4>it was me, you piece of scum. I mean, it

479
00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:18.240
<v Speaker 4>wasn't intentional. And I feel bad. Kara's gonna get me.

480
00:20:18.279 --> 00:20:20.720
<v Speaker 4>I know that I will pay for that in some way,

481
00:20:21.400 --> 00:20:23.960
<v Speaker 4>and uh, you know, just know that I'm sure it'll

482
00:20:23.960 --> 00:20:24.480
<v Speaker 4>come back around.

483
00:20:24.519 --> 00:20:25.480
<v Speaker 2>Even though it wasn't intentional.

484
00:20:25.559 --> 00:20:27.720
<v Speaker 4>That was it was my fault and it and it's

485
00:20:27.759 --> 00:20:29.480
<v Speaker 4>probably ruined your day and I'm sorry.

486
00:20:29.759 --> 00:20:32.039
<v Speaker 2>All right, Well, we'll roll along here and what we

487
00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:32.720
<v Speaker 2>got to talk about it.

488
00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:36.000
<v Speaker 4>On the other side, Pat Kelsey has added a player

489
00:20:36.000 --> 00:20:37.880
<v Speaker 4>for next season's roster that I don't think any of

490
00:20:37.920 --> 00:20:38.680
<v Speaker 4>us have ever heard of.

491
00:20:39.079 --> 00:20:40.720
<v Speaker 2>But the story, I.

492
00:20:40.680 --> 00:20:43.200
<v Speaker 4>Mean, and I think it's really, more than anything, a

493
00:20:43.240 --> 00:20:45.720
<v Speaker 4>sign that what we may start seeing in college basketball.

494
00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:47.559
<v Speaker 4>So we'll get to that in a lot more. Keep

508
00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:25.680
<v Speaker 4>six five three zero seven ninety. This text says Nick,

509
00:21:25.720 --> 00:21:28.880
<v Speaker 4>as someone who has been the victim of the splash,

510
00:21:28.960 --> 00:21:32.319
<v Speaker 4>I can tell you I spent many months hoping to

511
00:21:32.400 --> 00:21:35.079
<v Speaker 4>find the person who did it so I could call

512
00:21:35.119 --> 00:21:38.000
<v Speaker 4>them out make their life a living hell. And then

513
00:21:38.039 --> 00:21:40.359
<v Speaker 4>they go on to say, but my apology makes it

514
00:21:40.400 --> 00:21:44.079
<v Speaker 4>to where maybe I again, if what you're saying is

515
00:21:44.119 --> 00:21:46.920
<v Speaker 4>that it made you feel is if you do.

516
00:21:47.000 --> 00:21:48.279
<v Speaker 2>Understand it was an accident.

517
00:21:48.400 --> 00:21:50.400
<v Speaker 4>I'm sure in the moment it wouldn't have made a difference,

518
00:21:50.400 --> 00:21:52.880
<v Speaker 4>but like it can't happen in quite literally, it be

519
00:21:53.119 --> 00:21:56.519
<v Speaker 4>just an accident and there was no intention at all.

520
00:21:56.559 --> 00:21:59.480
<v Speaker 4>But I mean, yeah, to hear you say that when

521
00:21:59.519 --> 00:22:01.480
<v Speaker 4>it happened to you, you wanted to track that person

522
00:22:01.519 --> 00:22:03.440
<v Speaker 4>down and you often thought about them and what you

523
00:22:03.480 --> 00:22:05.160
<v Speaker 4>would do to them if you got your hands on them.

524
00:22:05.160 --> 00:22:06.240
<v Speaker 2>I totally get it.

525
00:22:06.240 --> 00:22:08.759
<v Speaker 4>That's why I felt so terrible and just wanted to

526
00:22:08.799 --> 00:22:12.200
<v Speaker 4>get it off my conscience and just you know, let

527
00:22:12.240 --> 00:22:12.799
<v Speaker 4>everybody know.

528
00:22:13.680 --> 00:22:15.319
<v Speaker 2>I know some bad energy may be coming my.

529
00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:18.720
<v Speaker 4>Way for that, because that was it was not good.

534
00:22:29.559 --> 00:22:33.279
<v Speaker 4>Kelsey has added himself a freshman for next year's team,

535
00:22:33.480 --> 00:22:37.839
<v Speaker 4>but it's not gonna be your typical freshman because this guy,

536
00:22:38.200 --> 00:22:41.319
<v Speaker 4>he'll be twenty two years old when he becomes a

537
00:22:41.359 --> 00:22:43.640
<v Speaker 4>freshman for the Louisville basketball program next year.

538
00:22:43.680 --> 00:22:46.799
<v Speaker 2>So six ' eleven twitter and forty five pound forward.

539
00:22:48.640 --> 00:22:50.400
<v Speaker 4>Frew is what I'm going to refer to him as

540
00:22:50.559 --> 00:22:53.079
<v Speaker 4>because that's a cool last name, Fru. But his first

541
00:22:53.160 --> 00:22:57.519
<v Speaker 4>name is Sonanda Snanda Frew, and I hope I'm saying

542
00:22:57.519 --> 00:22:59.960
<v Speaker 4>that correctly. But he is from Germany. He's twenty one

543
00:23:00.000 --> 00:23:01.720
<v Speaker 4>and again will be twenty two. I would imagine by

544
00:23:01.759 --> 00:23:03.960
<v Speaker 4>the time he gets to Louisville, and he has played

545
00:23:04.000 --> 00:23:06.440
<v Speaker 4>for a club in Germany that I guess is in

546
00:23:06.480 --> 00:23:09.920
<v Speaker 4>some way professional, but maybe he wasn't compensated because I really,

547
00:23:10.039 --> 00:23:11.680
<v Speaker 4>to be honest with you, used to be able to

548
00:23:11.680 --> 00:23:15.640
<v Speaker 4>get kids who played for these professional clubs overseas, but

549
00:23:15.720 --> 00:23:18.160
<v Speaker 4>yet there had to be like like, for example, think

550
00:23:18.279 --> 00:23:21.680
<v Speaker 4>in his canter meaning he's somebody that because he did

551
00:23:21.720 --> 00:23:24.400
<v Speaker 4>take money from one of these clubs that he played

552
00:23:24.440 --> 00:23:26.960
<v Speaker 4>for in Turkey, the NCAA ended up ruling that he

553
00:23:27.079 --> 00:23:30.319
<v Speaker 4>was not eligible to play for Kentucky. Now a lot

554
00:23:30.359 --> 00:23:32.759
<v Speaker 4>of things have changed since then, so I don't know

555
00:23:33.240 --> 00:23:36.480
<v Speaker 4>if he's a guy who's actually played pro or what.

556
00:23:36.759 --> 00:23:39.200
<v Speaker 2>Not really sure if it matters. I'm sure if I.

557
00:23:39.160 --> 00:23:41.480
<v Speaker 4>Really worked harder, I could get a better understanding of

558
00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:43.119
<v Speaker 4>what is and what is not allowed. But I think

559
00:23:43.119 --> 00:23:44.559
<v Speaker 4>we're at a point right now when it comes to

560
00:23:44.559 --> 00:23:47.319
<v Speaker 4>the NCUBLEA and what they enforce and what they try to,

561
00:23:47.720 --> 00:23:50.440
<v Speaker 4>you know, try to police like it's as tough now

562
00:23:50.480 --> 00:23:51.960
<v Speaker 4>as it's ever been in my opinion as far as

563
00:23:52.039 --> 00:23:53.559
<v Speaker 4>keeping up with what you are. I mean, I think

564
00:23:53.599 --> 00:23:56.279
<v Speaker 4>even coaches out there are not really sure if what

565
00:23:56.319 --> 00:24:00.839
<v Speaker 4>they're doing is allowed or not. I mean, that sounds crazy,

566
00:24:00.839 --> 00:24:02.960
<v Speaker 4>but it wouldn't shock me because I think in the

567
00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:05.839
<v Speaker 4>early stages of them trying to police this world of

568
00:24:06.200 --> 00:24:09.559
<v Speaker 4>the portal and nil. I mean it was a Florida State,

569
00:24:09.599 --> 00:24:11.440
<v Speaker 4>I believe it was or Tennessee, one of those two,

570
00:24:11.440 --> 00:24:13.279
<v Speaker 4>maybe it was both of them. They ended up getting

571
00:24:13.279 --> 00:24:16.319
<v Speaker 4>and they filed a lawsuit and they won. And therefore,

572
00:24:16.359 --> 00:24:18.279
<v Speaker 4>like now it's like, do whatever, hire a lawyer and

573
00:24:18.319 --> 00:24:20.680
<v Speaker 4>you'll get away with it. But I remember Florida State

574
00:24:20.720 --> 00:24:24.440
<v Speaker 4>got caught with some recruiting violations when it comes to

575
00:24:24.759 --> 00:24:27.960
<v Speaker 4>coaches basically telling their players or the recruits like, hey,

576
00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:29.799
<v Speaker 4>you need to go talk to the collective because I

577
00:24:29.799 --> 00:24:32.279
<v Speaker 4>can't talk money with you. That alone was a violation,

578
00:24:32.400 --> 00:24:35.400
<v Speaker 4>and I think just about every coach across the country said, well, wait,

579
00:24:35.440 --> 00:24:37.759
<v Speaker 4>isn't that what we're supposed to do. We aren't allowed

580
00:24:37.759 --> 00:24:39.160
<v Speaker 4>to talk money, so we go tell them to talk

581
00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:40.200
<v Speaker 4>to somebody else about it.

582
00:24:40.240 --> 00:24:43.680
<v Speaker 2>So anyways, this guy, he's gonna.

583
00:24:43.480 --> 00:24:45.880
<v Speaker 4>Have four years of eligibility when he gets to Louisville

584
00:24:46.000 --> 00:24:50.000
<v Speaker 4>when he's twenty one going on twenty two, and that

585
00:24:50.599 --> 00:24:53.640
<v Speaker 4>I kind of want to there's something about the age

586
00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:58.039
<v Speaker 4>that we're seeing college basketball players at now, some of them.

587
00:24:58.480 --> 00:25:00.680
<v Speaker 2>And I want to, I mean, I want to, I.

588
00:25:00.720 --> 00:25:02.160
<v Speaker 4>Want to say that for a little bit later, because

589
00:25:02.599 --> 00:25:04.599
<v Speaker 4>there are certain dudes out here that are really having

590
00:25:04.640 --> 00:25:07.839
<v Speaker 4>a great season in college basketball and really just you know,

591
00:25:07.880 --> 00:25:08.720
<v Speaker 4>living their best.

592
00:25:08.519 --> 00:25:11.640
<v Speaker 2>Life, as the kids say. But yet because they're.

593
00:25:11.480 --> 00:25:14.839
<v Speaker 4>So old, like they're becoming like they're getting made fun of,

594
00:25:14.960 --> 00:25:16.880
<v Speaker 4>like yeah, cool, Like you're old, dude, you should have

595
00:25:16.880 --> 00:25:18.759
<v Speaker 4>been out of college a long time ago. Once you

596
00:25:18.880 --> 00:25:22.000
<v Speaker 4>refresh that LinkedIn bio, bro, like, come on, you've been

597
00:25:22.000 --> 00:25:24.920
<v Speaker 4>in the game forever. So anyways, we'll save that conversation

598
00:25:24.960 --> 00:25:27.319
<v Speaker 4>for later. But this guy six eleven, two forty five.

599
00:25:27.880 --> 00:25:32.039
<v Speaker 4>According to Jeff Goodman, he first appeared for this pro

600
00:25:32.079 --> 00:25:34.599
<v Speaker 4>club in Germany in the two thousand and twenty twenty

601
00:25:34.599 --> 00:25:37.880
<v Speaker 4>one season and twenty twenty two twenty one season, I

602
00:25:37.880 --> 00:25:41.599
<v Speaker 4>should say, but he didn't play until the following year,

603
00:25:42.039 --> 00:25:45.359
<v Speaker 4>so that was I guess two years ago, three years

604
00:25:45.400 --> 00:25:50.799
<v Speaker 4>ago maybe. So. He is currently averaging twelve points, five rebounds,

605
00:25:50.799 --> 00:25:53.319
<v Speaker 4>and one point three blocks while shooting seventy five percent

606
00:25:53.359 --> 00:25:56.119
<v Speaker 4>from the field. He has started seventeen games, So it's

607
00:25:56.160 --> 00:25:59.279
<v Speaker 4>a guy who really had never played basketball until I

608
00:25:59.319 --> 00:26:01.680
<v Speaker 4>guess he got to be around eighteen years old, and

609
00:26:01.759 --> 00:26:04.240
<v Speaker 4>now here he is. He's been with this club for

610
00:26:04.440 --> 00:26:07.880
<v Speaker 4>four years, and he's a late You got a late start, right,

611
00:26:07.960 --> 00:26:11.039
<v Speaker 4>I mean, this is somebody that started playing the game late,

612
00:26:11.119 --> 00:26:13.400
<v Speaker 4>and it will start his college career as a freshman

613
00:26:13.480 --> 00:26:16.599
<v Speaker 4>with four years left to play when he's twenty one

614
00:26:16.720 --> 00:26:19.119
<v Speaker 4>or twenty two years old. Now, if you watch the highlights,

615
00:26:19.119 --> 00:26:21.799
<v Speaker 4>and again it's just highlights. And I will admit, even

616
00:26:21.880 --> 00:26:25.799
<v Speaker 4>though it looks as if he's playing relative competition, I

617
00:26:25.839 --> 00:26:28.440
<v Speaker 4>have no clue, like if this is like the B

618
00:26:28.680 --> 00:26:32.240
<v Speaker 4>or C version of whatever league he's playing for in Germany.

619
00:26:32.279 --> 00:26:34.799
<v Speaker 4>But his highlights look really impressive. We're talking about a

620
00:26:34.839 --> 00:26:39.720
<v Speaker 4>guy who's long, athletic, can rem run. I mean, looks

621
00:26:39.720 --> 00:26:42.319
<v Speaker 4>like he's got a good amount of skill to him.

622
00:26:42.319 --> 00:26:45.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure very much a raw prospect.

623
00:26:45.640 --> 00:26:47.960
<v Speaker 4>But I talked about this yesterday when it comes to

624
00:26:48.039 --> 00:26:50.440
<v Speaker 4>James Scott, and I'm not even making the comparison when

625
00:26:50.480 --> 00:26:54.200
<v Speaker 4>it comes to James as a player, just because I'd

626
00:26:54.240 --> 00:26:55.640
<v Speaker 4>be a fool to even try to act like I

627
00:26:55.680 --> 00:26:58.920
<v Speaker 4>can compare anybody to Freu because never heard of him

628
00:26:58.960 --> 00:27:00.920
<v Speaker 4>until about five hours of go when the news broke

629
00:27:01.079 --> 00:27:04.000
<v Speaker 4>that he's coming to Louisville, but you know, he just

630
00:27:04.079 --> 00:27:05.519
<v Speaker 4>looks like he's got a high motor.

631
00:27:06.119 --> 00:27:09.039
<v Speaker 2>And I feel like you're always gonna want talent.

632
00:27:09.160 --> 00:27:11.200
<v Speaker 4>And if you want to succeed at a place like

633
00:27:11.240 --> 00:27:14.000
<v Speaker 4>Louisville to where you are competing for final fours and

634
00:27:14.039 --> 00:27:16.799
<v Speaker 4>really one of the premier programs in the country, you

635
00:27:16.920 --> 00:27:19.039
<v Speaker 4>need not just guys that are gonna work their tail

636
00:27:19.079 --> 00:27:20.440
<v Speaker 4>off and fight for you need.

637
00:27:20.519 --> 00:27:21.680
<v Speaker 2>You need guys that are really talented.

638
00:27:21.720 --> 00:27:23.799
<v Speaker 4>And who knows, maybe this guy is, but I think

639
00:27:24.000 --> 00:27:27.680
<v Speaker 4>coaches like Pat Kelcey and honestly even coaches like Mark

640
00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:30.000
<v Speaker 4>Pohe And I'll give you another example.

641
00:27:29.759 --> 00:27:30.359
<v Speaker 2>Bruce Pearl.

642
00:27:30.559 --> 00:27:34.279
<v Speaker 4>Like Bruce Pearl is having a phenomenal season with Auburn.

643
00:27:34.599 --> 00:27:36.599
<v Speaker 4>He's certainly one of the top candidates for Coach of

644
00:27:36.640 --> 00:27:39.559
<v Speaker 4>the Year. And yes he has some good players, but

645
00:27:39.680 --> 00:27:44.759
<v Speaker 4>he's taken guys who were hungry, hard workers, and that's

646
00:27:44.799 --> 00:27:47.839
<v Speaker 4>the best recipe for guys who coach the way Bruce

647
00:27:47.839 --> 00:27:50.480
<v Speaker 4>Pearl does. Right, like Jeni Broom's an All American, he

648
00:27:50.599 --> 00:27:53.559
<v Speaker 4>legitimately has has a right to be the Player of

649
00:27:53.559 --> 00:27:56.880
<v Speaker 4>the Year nationally over Cooper Flagg. In my opinion, I

650
00:27:57.359 --> 00:27:59.119
<v Speaker 4>don't think you can go you can go wrong with either.

651
00:27:59.200 --> 00:28:01.839
<v Speaker 4>I'm just saying like he's sensational. But he's a guy

652
00:28:01.880 --> 00:28:04.039
<v Speaker 4>who has been in college a long time. He worked

653
00:28:04.039 --> 00:28:07.119
<v Speaker 4>his tail off, he started his career Moorehead State. So

654
00:28:08.240 --> 00:28:10.680
<v Speaker 4>I just think guys that are hungry, guys that really

655
00:28:11.160 --> 00:28:13.599
<v Speaker 4>want to prove they belong and it's tough to find that. Right,

656
00:28:13.599 --> 00:28:15.880
<v Speaker 4>you can think that a guy's got a good mindset

657
00:28:15.880 --> 00:28:16.319
<v Speaker 4>about him.

658
00:28:16.359 --> 00:28:16.640
<v Speaker 2>A guy.

659
00:28:16.799 --> 00:28:18.039
<v Speaker 4>Let me give an example, and this is gonna sell

660
00:28:18.039 --> 00:28:20.039
<v Speaker 4>like I'm picking on him, but I'm not like Big Frank,

661
00:28:21.079 --> 00:28:24.160
<v Speaker 4>the guy who you know, Frank anslom Ivy probably the

662
00:28:24.200 --> 00:28:27.000
<v Speaker 4>one player who's played the most minutes that gets talked

663
00:28:27.000 --> 00:28:28.680
<v Speaker 4>about the least. And I mean, you know everybody else

664
00:28:28.720 --> 00:28:31.160
<v Speaker 4>because of the injuries. I mean, you see guys that

665
00:28:31.200 --> 00:28:33.200
<v Speaker 4>are consistently getting really the same amount of minutes. If

666
00:28:33.240 --> 00:28:35.039
<v Speaker 4>you think about it, I'm gonna pull up the stats

667
00:28:35.079 --> 00:28:38.920
<v Speaker 4>now because you've had anselom Iby get minutes here and there.

668
00:28:39.519 --> 00:28:40.119
<v Speaker 2>He's played.

669
00:28:40.240 --> 00:28:42.000
<v Speaker 4>You know, he played more the other night whenever James

670
00:28:42.000 --> 00:28:46.119
<v Speaker 4>Scott was out. But he's somebody that is, Yeah, he's

671
00:28:46.440 --> 00:28:48.759
<v Speaker 4>averaging three point nine minutes per game. He's the only

672
00:28:48.799 --> 00:28:53.039
<v Speaker 4>scholarship player that is not really a legitimate piece to

673
00:28:53.079 --> 00:28:55.960
<v Speaker 4>the rotation as far as like he's getting. I mean,

674
00:28:56.480 --> 00:29:03.680
<v Speaker 4>for example, everybody else who plays Chuck, Terrence Hadley, Rayne, James,

675
00:29:03.720 --> 00:29:09.559
<v Speaker 4>Scott Waterman, I mean, Trey Ouay can I those guys

676
00:29:09.559 --> 00:29:13.079
<v Speaker 4>are all getting fourteen minutes plus Frank Anceler Iby's played

677
00:29:13.079 --> 00:29:15.079
<v Speaker 4>eighteen minutes and he's getting three point nine minutes per game.

678
00:29:15.400 --> 00:29:17.160
<v Speaker 4>So he at times he's out there, he'll get a

679
00:29:17.160 --> 00:29:19.799
<v Speaker 4>block shot, he'll get a dunk. I mean, he'll he'll

680
00:29:19.839 --> 00:29:23.200
<v Speaker 4>do exactly. He's the perfect piece for that role. And

681
00:29:23.279 --> 00:29:25.279
<v Speaker 4>finding a guy that upstairs, and what I mean by

682
00:29:25.279 --> 00:29:28.480
<v Speaker 4>that is I mean mentally is willing to embrace that.

683
00:29:28.480 --> 00:29:32.880
<v Speaker 4>That's the best case scenario. So finding a guy like that,

684
00:29:33.920 --> 00:29:35.319
<v Speaker 4>and this is where I was going to say it

685
00:29:35.319 --> 00:29:37.160
<v Speaker 4>was sound like I'm picking on him. He's somebody that

686
00:29:37.200 --> 00:29:39.240
<v Speaker 4>I think is the perfect player for Pat Kelsey will

687
00:29:39.279 --> 00:29:42.440
<v Speaker 4>do whatever you want. Is all about the team power

688
00:29:42.440 --> 00:29:44.720
<v Speaker 4>of the unit. Like he seems to really embrace that.

689
00:29:45.640 --> 00:29:47.519
<v Speaker 4>But he doesn't have a whole lot of talent, right,

690
00:29:47.559 --> 00:29:49.000
<v Speaker 4>he doesn't have a whole Like if he had to

691
00:29:49.000 --> 00:29:51.559
<v Speaker 4>play twenty five minutes, he'd give you everything he has,

692
00:29:51.799 --> 00:29:55.039
<v Speaker 4>but I'm not really sure how much he'd produced for you.

693
00:29:55.880 --> 00:29:57.799
<v Speaker 4>So if you could find I mean, I think the

694
00:29:57.799 --> 00:30:02.240
<v Speaker 4>best case scenario for Pat Kelsey is to find guys

695
00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:06.279
<v Speaker 4>that are willing to embrace the we versus me kind

696
00:30:06.279 --> 00:30:08.759
<v Speaker 4>of mentality, as he says, power of the unit, but

697
00:30:08.839 --> 00:30:11.319
<v Speaker 4>also can really just develop and work their tail off

698
00:30:11.319 --> 00:30:13.519
<v Speaker 4>and become really good. And that's what James Scott has done.

699
00:30:13.799 --> 00:30:15.480
<v Speaker 4>So I don't want to fake take it an act,

700
00:30:15.519 --> 00:30:16.880
<v Speaker 4>like I know a whole lot about this guy, but

701
00:30:17.279 --> 00:30:21.599
<v Speaker 4>he is somebody Sananda Frew that from highlights looks like

702
00:30:21.640 --> 00:30:23.920
<v Speaker 4>he's got some skill to him, and he's a grown

703
00:30:23.960 --> 00:30:25.960
<v Speaker 4>ass man. He'll be twenty one or twenty two by

704
00:30:25.960 --> 00:30:27.599
<v Speaker 4>the time he gets here, and he'll have four years.

705
00:30:27.640 --> 00:30:31.119
<v Speaker 4>And you know, I trust Pat Kelsey when it comes

706
00:30:31.160 --> 00:30:34.079
<v Speaker 4>to evaluating players that can fit with what he wants

707
00:30:34.079 --> 00:30:37.880
<v Speaker 4>to do and that can thrive in his system. All right, So, Austin,

708
00:30:37.880 --> 00:30:41.000
<v Speaker 4>you're a good person. Asked this about because the guy.

709
00:30:42.119 --> 00:30:44.920
<v Speaker 4>There are many college basketball fans out there, and I

710
00:30:44.960 --> 00:30:47.079
<v Speaker 4>don't want to maybe you're not this guy, but I

711
00:30:47.119 --> 00:30:49.920
<v Speaker 4>know plenty of them that just are. You're not that guy, pal,

712
00:30:50.079 --> 00:30:55.000
<v Speaker 4>But like, do you think it's less impressive and maybe

713
00:30:55.039 --> 00:30:57.640
<v Speaker 4>players shouldn't be as arrogant if they're having a really

714
00:30:57.680 --> 00:31:01.440
<v Speaker 4>good college season and yet they're very old compared to

715
00:31:01.480 --> 00:31:03.200
<v Speaker 4>the other players, you know what I'm saying.

716
00:31:03.279 --> 00:31:04.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Like if.

717
00:31:05.599 --> 00:31:07.480
<v Speaker 3>Especially like in the last couple of years with all

718
00:31:07.480 --> 00:31:10.640
<v Speaker 3>the transfer portals in that extra COVID history, and you're

719
00:31:10.759 --> 00:31:14.039
<v Speaker 3>like twenty seven years old, like Hunter Dickinson, that that

720
00:31:14.079 --> 00:31:14.880
<v Speaker 3>type of player something.

721
00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:15.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

722
00:31:15.160 --> 00:31:17.680
<v Speaker 4>So Hunter Dickinson's somebody that has been good every year

723
00:31:17.680 --> 00:31:20.920
<v Speaker 4>that he's been in college, and he's been in college

724
00:31:20.960 --> 00:31:21.720
<v Speaker 4>now for five.

725
00:31:21.599 --> 00:31:24.039
<v Speaker 2>Years, beca because of the COVID years.

726
00:31:24.079 --> 00:31:26.799
<v Speaker 4>Like, he's somebody that has he started his career quite

727
00:31:26.880 --> 00:31:29.799
<v Speaker 4>literally whenever I'm pretty sure whenever we had our first

728
00:31:29.839 --> 00:31:32.079
<v Speaker 4>season where you know, there was no fans there. So

729
00:31:32.160 --> 00:31:33.839
<v Speaker 4>he's a guy who he seems like he's been in

730
00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:36.319
<v Speaker 4>college for twenty years because not only has he been

731
00:31:36.359 --> 00:31:38.359
<v Speaker 4>in college five years, which is more than what you're

732
00:31:38.400 --> 00:31:40.920
<v Speaker 4>supposed to the only circumstance that led to that as

733
00:31:40.920 --> 00:31:43.599
<v Speaker 4>a global pandemic, but he's played a lot since he

734
00:31:43.680 --> 00:31:46.440
<v Speaker 4>got here, right right, So he to me, I feel

735
00:31:46.440 --> 00:31:48.720
<v Speaker 4>like he kind of like he can read the room, right,

736
00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:50.359
<v Speaker 4>like he knows that people are going to make the

737
00:31:50.480 --> 00:31:52.160
<v Speaker 4>joke about, hey, the old guy, do you want to

738
00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:53.680
<v Speaker 4>start your life after basketball?

739
00:31:54.079 --> 00:31:54.920
<v Speaker 2>But then there's other guys.

740
00:31:55.000 --> 00:31:57.920
<v Speaker 4>Let me give you an example, because Auburn they've got

741
00:31:57.920 --> 00:32:02.720
<v Speaker 4>a guy on their team whose name is Chad Baker Mazara,

742
00:32:02.920 --> 00:32:06.200
<v Speaker 4>and he's probably their best player outside of Jenna Broom

743
00:32:06.240 --> 00:32:08.759
<v Speaker 4>and a lot of I mean, he's really good.

744
00:32:09.079 --> 00:32:12.559
<v Speaker 2>He's really good for them. But he's twenty five years old.

745
00:32:13.279 --> 00:32:17.160
<v Speaker 4>And he started his career at Duquane and then he

746
00:32:17.200 --> 00:32:20.319
<v Speaker 4>went to San Diego State, then he went to junior college.

747
00:32:20.680 --> 00:32:23.160
<v Speaker 4>Then he played a junior season at Auburn last year,

748
00:32:23.559 --> 00:32:25.599
<v Speaker 4>and he was already old when he got to college

749
00:32:25.599 --> 00:32:27.400
<v Speaker 4>because maybe he got held back a year, which isn't

750
00:32:27.400 --> 00:32:31.920
<v Speaker 4>that uncommon, And now because of junior college, he will

751
00:32:32.160 --> 00:32:34.240
<v Speaker 4>mean for those who don't know, and this has not

752
00:32:34.279 --> 00:32:37.160
<v Speaker 4>been something we've brought up recently, but guys like honestly,

753
00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:39.519
<v Speaker 4>two guys on Lois roster right now have an extra

754
00:32:39.599 --> 00:32:42.480
<v Speaker 4>year of eligibility because of this rule. Cason Pryor may

755
00:32:42.480 --> 00:32:44.559
<v Speaker 4>have two years because of the injury where he may

756
00:32:44.599 --> 00:32:47.200
<v Speaker 4>get a medical red sheir. But if your eligibility is

757
00:32:47.240 --> 00:32:50.759
<v Speaker 4>set to end this year and you had any year,

758
00:32:51.240 --> 00:32:53.599
<v Speaker 4>could be multiple years. Any of your college career was

759
00:32:53.640 --> 00:32:55.960
<v Speaker 4>spent at the junior college level. Because the Van Dy

760
00:32:56.039 --> 00:32:59.359
<v Speaker 4>quarterback filed a lawsuit in one basically saying that the

761
00:32:59.440 --> 00:33:03.200
<v Speaker 4>NCAA cannot count years where you played in JC Double

762
00:33:03.240 --> 00:33:05.559
<v Speaker 4>A because it's not the same entity. Then they can't

763
00:33:05.599 --> 00:33:08.519
<v Speaker 4>count that towards your eligibility. So while they try to

764
00:33:08.559 --> 00:33:11.000
<v Speaker 4>work it out, what the NCAA's done is basically given

765
00:33:11.039 --> 00:33:13.359
<v Speaker 4>a blanket waiver and said, look, if your eligible eligibility

766
00:33:13.400 --> 00:33:14.039
<v Speaker 4>was going to be coming to.

767
00:33:13.960 --> 00:33:16.680
<v Speaker 2>An end, then you get one more year. Because of this.

768
00:33:16.720 --> 00:33:19.680
<v Speaker 4>We're not gonna file every we're not going to handle

769
00:33:19.720 --> 00:33:22.799
<v Speaker 4>every every situation individually. It's just a blanket thing. If

770
00:33:22.839 --> 00:33:24.480
<v Speaker 4>you were, if you're if you were in your last

771
00:33:24.519 --> 00:33:27.240
<v Speaker 4>year of eligibility and one of your years was counted

772
00:33:27.319 --> 00:33:29.880
<v Speaker 4>from JUCO, you get an extra year. So that's case

773
00:33:29.880 --> 00:33:32.839
<v Speaker 4>from Pryor and Jabon Hadley. So this guy next year,

774
00:33:33.319 --> 00:33:36.039
<v Speaker 4>Chad Baker Mazara, who's a really good college player, but

775
00:33:36.079 --> 00:33:38.400
<v Speaker 4>I don't think he looks like an NBA guy. He

776
00:33:38.440 --> 00:33:41.440
<v Speaker 4>could he could be a twenty six year old, sixty

777
00:33:41.480 --> 00:33:44.640
<v Speaker 4>year guy in college and he's really arrogant.

778
00:33:44.720 --> 00:33:46.279
<v Speaker 2>He's really like he's.

779
00:33:46.160 --> 00:33:49.079
<v Speaker 4>The guy who he got ejected the other night because

780
00:33:49.119 --> 00:33:51.759
<v Speaker 4>he like, like, I guess this is like a thing

781
00:33:51.759 --> 00:33:54.200
<v Speaker 4>you can that they're really emphasizing, which makes sense. But

782
00:33:54.279 --> 00:33:56.720
<v Speaker 4>I'm so, you know, I don't know what what players

783
00:33:56.720 --> 00:33:58.599
<v Speaker 4>are doing this day and age to celebrate when they

784
00:33:58.599 --> 00:34:00.680
<v Speaker 4>make a shot or they dunk on somebody, but like

785
00:34:00.759 --> 00:34:02.640
<v Speaker 4>you lift up your jersey as if you got a

786
00:34:02.640 --> 00:34:05.279
<v Speaker 4>gun in your waist, like you're automatically getting teed up

787
00:34:05.319 --> 00:34:07.480
<v Speaker 4>for doing that, which makes which makes total sense. Well

788
00:34:07.480 --> 00:34:09.800
<v Speaker 4>he did that, and he was just really you know,

789
00:34:10.519 --> 00:34:13.039
<v Speaker 4>just kind of I mean, he's somebody that put it

790
00:34:13.079 --> 00:34:17.360
<v Speaker 4>this way. He's somebody that you probably hate if he's

791
00:34:17.360 --> 00:34:19.239
<v Speaker 4>not on your team. And I'll be honest with you,

792
00:34:19.320 --> 00:34:21.079
<v Speaker 4>as much as I've watched Auburn play, I think even

793
00:34:21.119 --> 00:34:23.440
<v Speaker 4>if he was on my team, i'd kind of hate

794
00:34:23.480 --> 00:34:26.360
<v Speaker 4>him too. Like I think, if he helps my team,

795
00:34:26.400 --> 00:34:28.199
<v Speaker 4>then great, But like he's just kind of a clown

796
00:34:28.199 --> 00:34:30.679
<v Speaker 4>out there as far as just being really animated, really

797
00:34:30.800 --> 00:34:34.480
<v Speaker 4>arrogant at times, can be a dirty player with certain

798
00:34:34.480 --> 00:34:37.760
<v Speaker 4>fouls and whatnot. So he's now turned into like the

799
00:34:37.800 --> 00:34:41.039
<v Speaker 4>punching bag for college basketball sick of fans on Twitter

800
00:34:41.280 --> 00:34:44.639
<v Speaker 4>where they just like he'll post something or somebody will

801
00:34:44.679 --> 00:34:46.719
<v Speaker 4>acknowledge that he had a big game or a nice

802
00:34:46.760 --> 00:34:50.159
<v Speaker 4>stat line, and everybody's just walking right into the joke, like, yeah,

803
00:34:50.320 --> 00:34:53.039
<v Speaker 4>he's twenty five years old, Like why don't you, you know,

804
00:34:53.480 --> 00:34:55.719
<v Speaker 4>why don't you start your life like you've had a

805
00:34:55.800 --> 00:34:57.320
<v Speaker 4>you know, you've had a good run kind of thing.

806
00:34:57.360 --> 00:35:00.679
<v Speaker 4>So my question is is it fair to take shots

807
00:35:00.679 --> 00:35:06.199
<v Speaker 4>at guys who are really really thriving, but it's because

808
00:35:06.320 --> 00:35:10.880
<v Speaker 4>they're at times. I mean, for example, whenever I can't

809
00:35:10.880 --> 00:35:12.880
<v Speaker 4>think of a freshman in the SEC that's like a

810
00:35:12.880 --> 00:35:16.840
<v Speaker 4>big let me give you an example for Auburn or

811
00:35:16.559 --> 00:35:19.320
<v Speaker 4>not Auburn. For Boogie Fland, I mean, he is a

812
00:35:19.360 --> 00:35:21.719
<v Speaker 4>freshman at Arkansas. He's hurt, so maybe he's not a

813
00:35:21.760 --> 00:35:25.719
<v Speaker 4>good example. But Carter Knox or Billy Richmond, two guys

814
00:35:25.719 --> 00:35:28.000
<v Speaker 4>that played big minutes for cal at Arkansas, that had

815
00:35:28.039 --> 00:35:30.199
<v Speaker 4>big games against Kentucky a couple of weeks ago. When

816
00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:33.119
<v Speaker 4>Arkansas plays Auburn and this guy's out here, you know,

817
00:35:33.639 --> 00:35:37.280
<v Speaker 4>having a good game, meaning Chad Baker Mazara and he's

818
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:41.360
<v Speaker 4>given you know, he's talking reckless to Billy Richmond. You're

819
00:35:41.400 --> 00:35:43.920
<v Speaker 4>talking to an eighteen year old and you're twenty five,

820
00:35:44.000 --> 00:35:46.840
<v Speaker 4>like it does. Like again, I don't blame any of

821
00:35:46.840 --> 00:35:49.000
<v Speaker 4>these guys for sticking around in college as long as

822
00:35:49.039 --> 00:35:51.639
<v Speaker 4>they possibly can, because why would you not. First of all,

823
00:35:51.639 --> 00:35:53.559
<v Speaker 4>it's probably a great experience in your life that you're

824
00:35:53.599 --> 00:35:55.519
<v Speaker 4>always cherished. You know, by the way, now you can

825
00:35:55.559 --> 00:35:58.159
<v Speaker 4>make really big money. So again, I don't know what

826
00:35:58.199 --> 00:35:59.360
<v Speaker 4>I would do if I was one of those guys,

827
00:35:59.400 --> 00:36:02.599
<v Speaker 4>but I would also Tomas feel a little insecure knowing that, yes,

828
00:36:03.079 --> 00:36:07.320
<v Speaker 4>I'm still around at you know, mid twenties, and some

829
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:09.559
<v Speaker 4>of these guys I'm playing against are eighteen and nineteen

830
00:36:09.639 --> 00:36:11.639
<v Speaker 4>to where it kind of makes sense that I would

831
00:36:11.639 --> 00:36:13.519
<v Speaker 4>be able to be successful. But then again, when he

832
00:36:13.559 --> 00:36:16.079
<v Speaker 4>get to the pros, it's different, right, Like, you got

833
00:36:16.119 --> 00:36:20.159
<v Speaker 4>guys who I mean, it's not uncommon for two guys

834
00:36:20.159 --> 00:36:23.840
<v Speaker 4>to be going head to head, right Like in any

835
00:36:23.880 --> 00:36:25.880
<v Speaker 4>given night in the NBA when there's a really big

836
00:36:25.920 --> 00:36:29.840
<v Speaker 4>matchup between two players that are you know, two of

837
00:36:29.840 --> 00:36:31.960
<v Speaker 4>the best in the league, and you know that, hey,

838
00:36:31.960 --> 00:36:33.280
<v Speaker 4>we've got this team and that team.

839
00:36:33.320 --> 00:36:35.239
<v Speaker 2>Here's this star player, here's that star player.

840
00:36:35.559 --> 00:36:37.239
<v Speaker 4>You don't really think of age, but it wouldn't be

841
00:36:37.239 --> 00:36:39.440
<v Speaker 4>crazy to think that one guy's seven years older than

842
00:36:39.480 --> 00:36:42.800
<v Speaker 4>the other guy. But this is also college and we're

843
00:36:42.800 --> 00:36:45.599
<v Speaker 4>talking about like eighteen year old kids that are playing.

844
00:36:46.079 --> 00:36:48.639
<v Speaker 4>But then again, it's not really college because quite literally,

845
00:36:49.079 --> 00:36:51.599
<v Speaker 4>with guys being able to play this long because they're

846
00:36:51.639 --> 00:36:54.719
<v Speaker 4>making money, I mean, it's pro sports now. So I

847
00:36:54.760 --> 00:36:57.119
<v Speaker 4>don't know, I guess, long winded way of me asking,

848
00:36:57.239 --> 00:36:59.719
<v Speaker 4>do you think it's lame for people to make fun

849
00:36:59.760 --> 00:37:03.159
<v Speaker 4>of guys guys who are arrogant in college in blaming

850
00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:04.719
<v Speaker 4>it on because they should have left long ago.

851
00:37:04.719 --> 00:37:05.880
<v Speaker 2>They're too old, they need to move on.

852
00:37:06.000 --> 00:37:07.440
<v Speaker 3>Well sometimes I do that on Twitter.

853
00:37:07.480 --> 00:37:09.119
<v Speaker 4>So that's that's why I'm asking you, like, you know,

854
00:37:09.320 --> 00:37:12.719
<v Speaker 4>is it then No, I'm not. I'm not asking you

855
00:37:12.559 --> 00:37:17.199
<v Speaker 4>if that's not my question. My question is like should

856
00:37:17.280 --> 00:37:20.760
<v Speaker 4>these like is it a normal reaction? Because I don't know,

857
00:37:20.840 --> 00:37:22.960
<v Speaker 4>like I never think of anybody's age when I watched

858
00:37:23.000 --> 00:37:25.199
<v Speaker 4>them play, but whenever you see somebody bring it up

859
00:37:25.199 --> 00:37:27.079
<v Speaker 4>and I'm like, yeah, that is kind of odd. Like,

860
00:37:27.199 --> 00:37:32.199
<v Speaker 4>think about it if you were in any other aspect

861
00:37:32.239 --> 00:37:36.000
<v Speaker 4>of life outside of you know, college sports, I guess,

862
00:37:36.159 --> 00:37:39.159
<v Speaker 4>or really I guess professional sports, and you were in

863
00:37:39.199 --> 00:37:41.840
<v Speaker 4>a better position at twenty five than somebody at eighteen,

864
00:37:41.880 --> 00:37:43.280
<v Speaker 4>and you were really just letting them have it.

865
00:37:43.480 --> 00:37:45.840
<v Speaker 2>Like you'd look like a total loser, right, you look

866
00:37:45.920 --> 00:37:46.639
<v Speaker 2>like the guy almost.

867
00:37:46.719 --> 00:37:49.599
<v Speaker 4>It's like, yeah, trying to come back and stunt at

868
00:37:49.639 --> 00:37:51.320
<v Speaker 4>the high school games when you're twenty two, you know

869
00:37:51.360 --> 00:37:54.559
<v Speaker 4>what I mean, Like it's it's it's yeah, it's got

870
00:37:54.559 --> 00:37:56.159
<v Speaker 4>that kind of vibe to it. But again, I don't

871
00:37:56.159 --> 00:38:00.480
<v Speaker 4>blame them, but we are at a point that nothing

872
00:38:00.599 --> 00:38:03.719
<v Speaker 4>surprises me when it comes to what player. And what

873
00:38:03.880 --> 00:38:06.199
<v Speaker 4>makes this just so wild to me is that for

874
00:38:07.320 --> 00:38:09.880
<v Speaker 4>hundreds of years it seemed that I'm exaggerating, but the

875
00:38:10.000 --> 00:38:15.719
<v Speaker 4>ncblea's archaic amateurism model was in place forever for generations,

876
00:38:16.320 --> 00:38:18.840
<v Speaker 4>and then within a matter of you know, the last

877
00:38:18.880 --> 00:38:21.880
<v Speaker 4>four years, really i'd say last three and a half.

878
00:38:21.760 --> 00:38:24.719
<v Speaker 2>Four years, the players have all the power and.

879
00:38:24.679 --> 00:38:27.480
<v Speaker 4>They can do whatever they want. It's just a totally

880
00:38:27.480 --> 00:38:31.639
<v Speaker 4>different world. So I mean, if you're an NAIA player

881
00:38:32.719 --> 00:38:35.280
<v Speaker 4>and you played at Georgetown College, which by the way,

882
00:38:35.320 --> 00:38:37.039
<v Speaker 4>I think they're number one in the country right now.

883
00:38:37.079 --> 00:38:39.400
<v Speaker 4>In nai they got some really good players. In fact,

884
00:38:39.400 --> 00:38:41.119
<v Speaker 4>there's some D one guys playing right now. In fact,

885
00:38:41.159 --> 00:38:43.079
<v Speaker 4>Chris Mack has one of them at Charleston that started

886
00:38:43.079 --> 00:38:46.079
<v Speaker 4>his career at Georgetown College and now he's, you know,

887
00:38:46.119 --> 00:38:49.440
<v Speaker 4>a legitimately all conference caliber player at the mid major level.

888
00:38:49.480 --> 00:38:52.159
<v Speaker 2>So if a guy graduated this.

889
00:38:52.199 --> 00:38:56.039
<v Speaker 4>Year from Georgetown College or something like that, and he

890
00:38:56.199 --> 00:38:58.800
<v Speaker 4>challenged the NCUBA and said, look, I didn't play NCAA.

891
00:38:58.920 --> 00:39:02.880
<v Speaker 4>I played NAI Why would you be able to tell

892
00:39:02.920 --> 00:39:05.159
<v Speaker 4>me I can't. How would you be able to tell

893
00:39:05.159 --> 00:39:06.880
<v Speaker 4>me that I'm not eligible to play when I've not

894
00:39:06.880 --> 00:39:10.039
<v Speaker 4>played a single second under the NCAA umbrella?

895
00:39:10.119 --> 00:39:11.920
<v Speaker 2>Like, he probably hire a lawyer and win.

896
00:39:12.280 --> 00:39:14.159
<v Speaker 4>And at that point, you're talking about what we're talking

897
00:39:14.159 --> 00:39:18.320
<v Speaker 4>about here, which is guys coming over from overseas that

898
00:39:18.400 --> 00:39:20.599
<v Speaker 4>are late bloomers or whatever it may be. They just

899
00:39:20.639 --> 00:39:24.280
<v Speaker 4>want to make money, and yet they end up being

900
00:39:24.400 --> 00:39:27.400
<v Speaker 4>twenty two year old freshmen and they graduate when they're

901
00:39:27.440 --> 00:39:29.719
<v Speaker 4>twenty six like that. I don't want to say it's

902
00:39:29.719 --> 00:39:31.679
<v Speaker 4>going to be super common, but it'll be more common

903
00:39:31.719 --> 00:39:34.320
<v Speaker 4>than it's ever been, really because previously was never possible.

904
00:39:34.760 --> 00:39:36.920
<v Speaker 4>It's just wild to think about how different things are

905
00:39:36.960 --> 00:39:40.119
<v Speaker 4>now in college athletics. In fact, a lot of these

906
00:39:40.159 --> 00:39:43.039
<v Speaker 4>guys that would never entertain college because they can hide

907
00:39:43.079 --> 00:39:45.400
<v Speaker 4>overseas better and then be drafted.

908
00:39:45.599 --> 00:39:48.599
<v Speaker 2>The big Z brothers. There's you know, the Big Z.

909
00:39:49.480 --> 00:39:50.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't even know. I just know him as Big Z.

910
00:39:51.159 --> 00:39:53.079
<v Speaker 4>But he played at Kentucky last year and now they followed

911
00:39:53.159 --> 00:39:55.559
<v Speaker 4>cald Arkansas. I hit that big three late in the

912
00:39:55.559 --> 00:39:58.320
<v Speaker 4>game the other night. His brother plays for Illinois. Well,

913
00:39:58.719 --> 00:40:01.719
<v Speaker 4>the story is that those two guys were NBA prospects

914
00:40:01.760 --> 00:40:04.000
<v Speaker 4>because they were young, and they were up and coming,

915
00:40:04.400 --> 00:40:05.960
<v Speaker 4>and they had a lot of skill. You know, they're

916
00:40:06.239 --> 00:40:08.920
<v Speaker 4>the new age European bigs that can do a lot.

917
00:40:09.760 --> 00:40:13.079
<v Speaker 4>But they didn't want to go play college because if anything,

918
00:40:13.119 --> 00:40:16.199
<v Speaker 4>all it does is potentially expose you. But there's so

919
00:40:16.320 --> 00:40:18.960
<v Speaker 4>much money being paid to college players now, they were

920
00:40:19.000 --> 00:40:21.000
<v Speaker 4>full of Big Z got a big amount of money

921
00:40:21.039 --> 00:40:22.760
<v Speaker 4>to come to Kentucky last year. And look, he may

922
00:40:22.800 --> 00:40:24.880
<v Speaker 4>never be drafted, right because he may have shown in

923
00:40:24.960 --> 00:40:27.800
<v Speaker 4>college that he's not good enough to be like an all,

924
00:40:28.079 --> 00:40:29.679
<v Speaker 4>he's not good enough to be an NBA player. I'm

925
00:40:29.679 --> 00:40:31.760
<v Speaker 4>not saying he won't be, but I'm just saying it's

926
00:40:31.760 --> 00:40:35.400
<v Speaker 4>worth that risk to potentially put enough film out there

927
00:40:35.400 --> 00:40:37.400
<v Speaker 4>to where they realize you're not good enough to be

928
00:40:37.440 --> 00:40:40.639
<v Speaker 4>in the NBA. Because in college Now you can you

929
00:40:40.679 --> 00:40:43.920
<v Speaker 4>can go get paid big money, and you know, just

930
00:40:44.239 --> 00:40:46.840
<v Speaker 4>the way in which guys stick around longer, or the

931
00:40:46.920 --> 00:40:49.320
<v Speaker 4>way in which you can add players that you typically

932
00:40:49.320 --> 00:40:52.239
<v Speaker 4>wouldn't be able to add in college basketball and really

933
00:40:52.239 --> 00:40:55.519
<v Speaker 4>college football. It's fascinating to me. All right, quick break,

934
00:40:55.519 --> 00:40:57.559
<v Speaker 4>we'll come back, wrap up at three o'clock hour, or

935
00:40:57.639 --> 00:41:00.119
<v Speaker 4>keep this thing rolling along. It's coffee and company. Hear

936
00:41:00.159 --> 00:41:02.679
<v Speaker 4>Field about Thornton's right here on Sports Talk seven ninety.

937
00:41:02.800 --> 00:41:06.679
<v Speaker 1>Now back to coffee and company. Fueled by Thornton's on

938
00:41:06.800 --> 00:41:08.440
<v Speaker 1>Sports Talk seven nine days.

939
00:41:08.440 --> 00:41:11.920
<v Speaker 4>A big night of college basketball this evening in Kentucky.

940
00:41:12.000 --> 00:41:15.280
<v Speaker 4>They'll take on Tennessee at seven o'clock. This game, I

941
00:41:15.320 --> 00:41:18.079
<v Speaker 4>think it opened up Tennessee favored by a point. And

942
00:41:18.079 --> 00:41:20.920
<v Speaker 4>then Mark Pope on his show last night mentioned actually,

943
00:41:20.920 --> 00:41:22.360
<v Speaker 4>I'm not even sure if you mentioned it or not.

944
00:41:22.440 --> 00:41:23.840
<v Speaker 4>I just know that it did come out with the

945
00:41:23.880 --> 00:41:28.400
<v Speaker 4>injury report that that Jackson Robinson is not going to

946
00:41:28.440 --> 00:41:30.440
<v Speaker 4>be he's not he's not playing, he's out dealing with

947
00:41:30.440 --> 00:41:33.079
<v Speaker 4>the wrist injury. And that Lamont Butler, I guess, is back.

948
00:41:33.480 --> 00:41:37.119
<v Speaker 4>So obviously, without without Jackson Robinson, Kentucky is is not

949
00:41:37.280 --> 00:41:38.960
<v Speaker 4>as good. I mean, they can still win. And that's

950
00:41:39.000 --> 00:41:42.800
<v Speaker 4>what is wild about Kentucky. They've been able to win

951
00:41:42.880 --> 00:41:47.599
<v Speaker 4>some games that really have value, right, Like absolutely are

952
00:41:47.639 --> 00:41:49.880
<v Speaker 4>going to keep them up on a certain seed line

953
00:41:49.920 --> 00:41:52.719
<v Speaker 4>because you know, winning in Knoxville like they did a

954
00:41:52.719 --> 00:41:55.599
<v Speaker 4>couple of weeks ago, that's going to be as valuable

955
00:41:55.639 --> 00:41:59.400
<v Speaker 4>as any win anybody can get in college basketball. So

956
00:41:59.639 --> 00:42:03.119
<v Speaker 4>they did that without Butler and without was it without

957
00:42:03.119 --> 00:42:03.559
<v Speaker 4>car too?

958
00:42:03.800 --> 00:42:04.920
<v Speaker 2>Maybe?

959
00:42:05.199 --> 00:42:08.559
<v Speaker 4>So anyways, they are underdogs at RUP tonight, which isn't

960
00:42:08.559 --> 00:42:12.119
<v Speaker 4>a surprise considering the circumstance and considering how good Tennessee is.

961
00:42:12.159 --> 00:42:15.360
<v Speaker 4>But this has to be a real rarity for them

962
00:42:15.360 --> 00:42:18.119
<v Speaker 4>to be underdogs at home. I mean, I know it's happened,

963
00:42:19.000 --> 00:42:20.960
<v Speaker 4>and maybe it even happened earlier this year, and I

964
00:42:21.079 --> 00:42:23.639
<v Speaker 4>just forgot about it when they played Florida. I kind

965
00:42:23.639 --> 00:42:25.639
<v Speaker 4>of feel like at that time, given where both teams were,

966
00:42:25.719 --> 00:42:29.519
<v Speaker 4>Kentucky was probably probably still favored in that game. But

967
00:42:29.559 --> 00:42:33.480
<v Speaker 4>either way, the kin Pom projected score, which I don't believe.

968
00:42:33.480 --> 00:42:36.360
<v Speaker 4>I mean, kin Pom does not factor in, does not

969
00:42:36.440 --> 00:42:39.639
<v Speaker 4>factor in injuries. Guys who have you know who just

970
00:42:40.199 --> 00:42:41.840
<v Speaker 4>played one game and then won't play the other but

971
00:42:41.880 --> 00:42:44.599
<v Speaker 4>for what it's worth, the projected score, assuming everybody plays,

972
00:42:44.599 --> 00:42:46.840
<v Speaker 4>which again they're not, would be a win for Kentucky

973
00:42:46.920 --> 00:42:50.000
<v Speaker 4>seventy four to seventy two. So this I'm fascinated to

974
00:42:50.000 --> 00:42:52.320
<v Speaker 4>see this game because to me, it comes down to

975
00:42:53.519 --> 00:42:54.880
<v Speaker 4>who's going to be able to get into what they

976
00:42:54.920 --> 00:42:57.280
<v Speaker 4>want to do and Kentucky's gonna do what they want

977
00:42:57.280 --> 00:43:00.280
<v Speaker 4>to do, and meaning they're gonna they're gonna play with

978
00:43:00.360 --> 00:43:02.920
<v Speaker 4>a real intent to have as many possessions as possible.

979
00:43:04.039 --> 00:43:05.679
<v Speaker 4>They should shoot more threes than they do, to be

980
00:43:05.679 --> 00:43:07.719
<v Speaker 4>honest with you, But either way, like they have a

981
00:43:07.760 --> 00:43:10.679
<v Speaker 4>style and it's.

982
00:43:10.239 --> 00:43:11.320
<v Speaker 2>Worked pretty good for him.

983
00:43:11.320 --> 00:43:13.679
<v Speaker 4>I mean, they've had games where they got blown out

984
00:43:13.719 --> 00:43:16.639
<v Speaker 4>like Ole Miss, but keep in mind Kentucky being down

985
00:43:16.639 --> 00:43:18.639
<v Speaker 4>twenty three to twenty five points in that game and

986
00:43:18.719 --> 00:43:21.440
<v Speaker 4>yet clawing back to get it within eleven or something.

987
00:43:21.599 --> 00:43:24.480
<v Speaker 4>You shouldn't celebrate that. It's not like won, you still

988
00:43:24.519 --> 00:43:27.360
<v Speaker 4>lost by double digits. But because of the way they play,

989
00:43:27.400 --> 00:43:30.719
<v Speaker 4>they can at times get hot and dig themselves out

990
00:43:30.719 --> 00:43:33.000
<v Speaker 4>of a hole. I mean they've shown that in many

991
00:43:33.039 --> 00:43:36.280
<v Speaker 4>games this year. So my point is Tennessee when they

992
00:43:36.320 --> 00:43:38.960
<v Speaker 4>lost at home, which who knows, maybe that's the only

993
00:43:39.000 --> 00:43:41.440
<v Speaker 4>home lost Tennessee ends up taking this year wouldn't shock

994
00:43:41.480 --> 00:43:44.400
<v Speaker 4>me at all. They got into I don't want to

995
00:43:44.400 --> 00:43:46.079
<v Speaker 4>say they took the bait, because that's probably not the

996
00:43:46.079 --> 00:43:48.360
<v Speaker 4>best way to describe it. But they shot more threes

997
00:43:48.400 --> 00:43:50.280
<v Speaker 4>than Kentucky and they're not built for that at all.

998
00:43:50.599 --> 00:43:52.840
<v Speaker 4>And they've got a really good shooter. The kid that

999
00:43:52.840 --> 00:43:55.920
<v Speaker 4>transferred from North Florida that actually picked Tennessee over Kentucky

1000
00:43:57.480 --> 00:43:59.280
<v Speaker 4>Chad Lanier, I believe it is his name. He's a

1001
00:43:59.320 --> 00:44:01.719
<v Speaker 4>really good shooter. In fact, he was right behind Rayan

1002
00:44:01.800 --> 00:44:04.239
<v Speaker 4>Smith as far as three pointers made per game for

1003
00:44:04.320 --> 00:44:06.039
<v Speaker 4>a good for a good stretch of the season. So

1004
00:44:06.960 --> 00:44:10.360
<v Speaker 4>I think if Tennessee does what Rick Barnes wants to do,

1005
00:44:10.880 --> 00:44:13.199
<v Speaker 4>where they just they they they they get back and

1006
00:44:13.280 --> 00:44:15.639
<v Speaker 4>don't try to play the same game, right they don't

1007
00:44:16.519 --> 00:44:19.199
<v Speaker 4>put it this way, Kentucky wants as many possessions as possible,

1008
00:44:19.280 --> 00:44:21.599
<v Speaker 4>that Tennessee has the mindset of, no, we're gonna make

1009
00:44:21.639 --> 00:44:24.239
<v Speaker 4>it to where we have fewer possessions than you'd ever want.

1010
00:44:24.559 --> 00:44:27.719
<v Speaker 4>I think that's where Tennessee could really find a good find,

1011
00:44:27.800 --> 00:44:30.960
<v Speaker 4>find a style in a situation where they could get

1012
00:44:30.960 --> 00:44:31.960
<v Speaker 4>out of up Arena with a win.

1013
00:44:32.199 --> 00:44:33.440
<v Speaker 2>But if they start, if they.

1014
00:44:33.320 --> 00:44:35.559
<v Speaker 4>If they keep going possession for possession and they fire

1015
00:44:35.639 --> 00:44:37.800
<v Speaker 4>up a bunch of threes, they may still win because

1016
00:44:37.840 --> 00:44:41.360
<v Speaker 4>they're good at Kentucky's without Jackson Robinson. But I just

1017
00:44:41.400 --> 00:44:44.639
<v Speaker 4>don't know how so many teams have not figured out that,

1018
00:44:45.280 --> 00:44:48.000
<v Speaker 4>you know, Kentucky can be beat at that in that

1019
00:44:48.039 --> 00:44:52.320
<v Speaker 4>situation in those kind of games, because it happened with Alabama.

1020
00:44:52.320 --> 00:44:53.800
<v Speaker 4>But Alabama just so happens to be the number one

1021
00:44:53.840 --> 00:44:57.239
<v Speaker 4>team in the country right now. Who else got them

1022
00:44:57.239 --> 00:45:01.119
<v Speaker 4>in that situation? I mean, Florida Kentucky one, But it

1023
00:45:01.119 --> 00:45:01.960
<v Speaker 4>could have gone either way.

1024
00:45:02.039 --> 00:45:02.880
<v Speaker 2>So I don't know.

1025
00:45:03.199 --> 00:45:05.199
<v Speaker 4>If that's not who you are, right, if that's not

1026
00:45:05.360 --> 00:45:08.039
<v Speaker 4>your brand, if that's not like a part of your DNA,

1027
00:45:08.159 --> 00:45:09.880
<v Speaker 4>I don't know why you would want to get into

1028
00:45:09.880 --> 00:45:12.639
<v Speaker 4>playing their style whenever you could still win, but you

1029
00:45:12.719 --> 00:45:14.920
<v Speaker 4>know you're playing in a way that they are going

1030
00:45:15.000 --> 00:45:16.840
<v Speaker 4>to potentially be at their best. And I think Rick

1031
00:45:16.880 --> 00:45:19.360
<v Speaker 4>Barnes and Tennessee probably learned from that and their.

1032
00:45:19.199 --> 00:45:20.960
<v Speaker 2>Loss to Kentucky. So we'll see.

1033
00:45:21.079 --> 00:45:24.400
<v Speaker 4>But big game, no doubt. We got number four, and

1034
00:45:24.519 --> 00:45:26.880
<v Speaker 4>when it comes to the kin pomp Tennessee is number four.

1035
00:45:27.119 --> 00:45:30.159
<v Speaker 4>Kentucky's at number twenty two, so big time. One of

1036
00:45:30.159 --> 00:45:32.880
<v Speaker 4>the many big time matchups tonight. All right, fellas, let

1037
00:45:32.880 --> 00:45:34.400
<v Speaker 4>me tell you about the Lots of Men's clinic. You

1038
00:45:34.440 --> 00:45:36.679
<v Speaker 4>guys have heard me talking about my experience with doctor

1039
00:45:36.679 --> 00:45:38.400
<v Speaker 4>Wood at the Louis of Men's Clinic for for quite

1040
00:45:38.440 --> 00:45:41.559
<v Speaker 4>a while, now over a year and this past year,

1041
00:45:41.599 --> 00:45:45.840
<v Speaker 4>I've definitely improved really all aspects of my life when

1042
00:45:45.840 --> 00:45:48.760
<v Speaker 4>it comes to health. I mean, I have better energy,

1043
00:45:49.000 --> 00:45:52.039
<v Speaker 4>I'm no longer lethargic, I get more out of my workouts,

1044
00:45:52.159 --> 00:45:55.639
<v Speaker 4>and it's all because I am on testosterone treatment at

1045
00:45:55.679 --> 00:45:57.559
<v Speaker 4>the lover Of Men's Clinic. A lot of people think, well,

1046
00:45:57.559 --> 00:46:00.960
<v Speaker 4>that must be related to erectyled function, or that must

1047
00:46:01.000 --> 00:46:03.719
<v Speaker 4>be for old dudes that are in like their sixties

1048
00:46:03.800 --> 00:46:07.800
<v Speaker 4>or fifties, and no, it could be anybody, honestly, any age.

1049
00:46:08.400 --> 00:46:09.920
<v Speaker 2>But when you get to be in your.

1050
00:46:09.760 --> 00:46:12.960
<v Speaker 4>Mid thirties, early thirties, it's where I noticed, Hey, something's

1051
00:46:12.960 --> 00:46:14.440
<v Speaker 4>just not adding up, Like I've lost my edge a

1052
00:46:14.440 --> 00:46:16.519
<v Speaker 4>little bit. I don't know why, Like I'm really mindful

1053
00:46:16.559 --> 00:46:18.639
<v Speaker 4>of what I put in my body, and not that

1054
00:46:18.679 --> 00:46:20.440
<v Speaker 4>I'm on some super strict diet, but I just kind

1055
00:46:20.440 --> 00:46:22.639
<v Speaker 4>of felt like I was no longer getting the same

1056
00:46:22.679 --> 00:46:25.119
<v Speaker 4>results that I used to get in the gym. And

1057
00:46:25.559 --> 00:46:28.639
<v Speaker 4>also the mental factor. I mean, I didn't realize having

1058
00:46:28.679 --> 00:46:31.039
<v Speaker 4>your testosterone levels where they need to be for your

1059
00:46:31.079 --> 00:46:33.840
<v Speaker 4>age range can benefit you in all aspects of life.

1060
00:46:34.039 --> 00:46:36.719
<v Speaker 4>And I know there's this stigma that you know, I

1061
00:46:36.760 --> 00:46:39.320
<v Speaker 4>don't need that I'm a man. No, I mean it's

1062
00:46:39.320 --> 00:46:41.320
<v Speaker 4>not really about that. I mean it's life. You can

1063
00:46:41.360 --> 00:46:44.679
<v Speaker 4>be the most manly man on earth and your levels

1064
00:46:44.719 --> 00:46:46.639
<v Speaker 4>of testosterone may not be where they need to be

1065
00:46:46.639 --> 00:46:47.920
<v Speaker 4>because you know it's part of life.

1066
00:46:48.400 --> 00:46:49.639
<v Speaker 2>So get them checked.

1067
00:46:49.840 --> 00:46:52.519
<v Speaker 4>You may find out that, yeah, your levels are way off,

1068
00:46:52.599 --> 00:46:54.360
<v Speaker 4>and then you get it taken care of it the

1069
00:46:54.400 --> 00:46:57.599
<v Speaker 4>lot of a men's clinic, and you'll be living.

1070
00:46:57.360 --> 00:46:59.159
<v Speaker 2>Better than you realized you ever could.

1071
00:46:59.360 --> 00:47:00.840
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I thought there was a part of my

1072
00:47:00.920 --> 00:47:03.159
<v Speaker 4>life like two years ago, Well, hey, this is.

1073
00:47:03.159 --> 00:47:03.920
<v Speaker 2>Just part of it. Right.

1074
00:47:04.000 --> 00:47:06.599
<v Speaker 4>Like I'm older now, I'm not feeling like a grandpa,

1075
00:47:06.760 --> 00:47:08.880
<v Speaker 4>but man like I don't have the same juice that

1076
00:47:08.920 --> 00:47:10.760
<v Speaker 4>I used to have. And then now in the last

1077
00:47:10.800 --> 00:47:14.159
<v Speaker 4>year since I've been taking testosterone treatment, I feel like

1078
00:47:14.199 --> 00:47:15.960
<v Speaker 4>I went back in time and I now feel like

1079
00:47:16.039 --> 00:47:18.079
<v Speaker 4>I You know, am much younger than I was for

1080
