Didn't really say anything, 9 00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:30.800 but we're here, and I hope we're on it. Nobody 10 00:00:30.839 --> 00:00:31.359 didn't say. 11 00:00:31.199 --> 00:00:33.119 Hey, blah blah blah, no eye in. 12 00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:35.960 The ball, blah, good morning, you're a good afternoon, whatever 13 00:00:36.039 --> 00:00:40.799 you're at.

Man scores good games, 15 00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:46.600 the last minute beats Sehn, Miller lost. 16 00:00:47.079 --> 00:00:48.520 We'll see if he gets into the tournament. 17 00:00:49.840 --> 00:00:52.679 Projections by Lunardi, which of course you could believe or 18 00:00:52.719 --> 00:00:56.520 not believe. It's when Man's interpretation of the events. You 19 00:00:56.600 --> 00:01:00.000 had them play in Arizona, possibly them in North Carolina 20 00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:03.600 in Arizona in the play in game for in the 21 00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:06.319 playing game, yeah, they would play each other, see yeah, 22 00:01:06.359 --> 00:01:09.280 and then possibly that was eighteen hours ago. Yeah, but 23 00:01:09.319 --> 00:01:12.640 that was not an hour ago, so things changed right, 24 00:01:12.879 --> 00:01:15.400 North Carolina beat its opponent's Xavier lost. 25 00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:18.200 It's so we'll see what happened. Yeah, so many things 26 00:01:18.280 --> 00:01:20.000 kind of you know, kind of get shuffled around here 27 00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:23.519 in these last final days of the season before the 28 00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:26.400 NCAA tournament. But yeah, you're right as far as basketball goes, 29 00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:28.879 you can sit around all day and watch watch game 30 00:01:28.920 --> 00:01:31.560 after game and tournament after tournaments. Some games are great. 31 00:01:31.640 --> 00:01:34.719 Some games are blowouts. I mean the Duke situation today, 32 00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:36.480 they win, but they lose the best player in the 33 00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:40.680 country and Cooper Flag with that. That ankle injury that 34 00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:42.799 really hit bad. I did it. I did watch it. 35 00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:44.239 It was it was bad. I mean they said he 36 00:01:44.319 --> 00:01:46.920 went up for a rebound and kind of came straight 37 00:01:46.959 --> 00:01:48.480 down him and the ankle twisted. 38 00:01:48.519 --> 00:01:50.879 I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often, or maybe it doesn't. 39 00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:51.439 We just don't know. 40 00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:53.439 Yeah, but this was pretty obvious. I mean he went 41 00:01:53.480 --> 00:01:55.599 down and didn't get up for you know, a minute 42 00:01:55.680 --> 00:01:57.879 or so, and they took him out in a wheelchair 43 00:01:58.239 --> 00:01:59.959 and then he wound up coming back and sat. 44 00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:03.239 On the So the report that there was nothing broken, 45 00:02:03.319 --> 00:02:05.599 that's good. That the chance of film playing tomorrow are 46 00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:09.479 not good. But but yeah, so we'll see down the road. 47 00:02:09.639 --> 00:02:11.479 What's the point really, I mean, what does Duke need 48 00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:11.719 to do? 49 00:02:11.840 --> 00:02:14.800 Yeah, well they're one of the number ones, considering from 50 00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:16.759 number one overall seats they're number two. 51 00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:17.360 What's the difference. 52 00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:19.199 Yeah, honestly, if you're one, two or three or whatever, 53 00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:21.360 if you as long as your top one in the 54 00:02:21.439 --> 00:02:24.840 top four, that they're fine and it will be obviously, 55 00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:28.560 so many great games David Loss Sean Miller, like two 56 00:02:29.719 --> 00:02:32.280 b YU. I think that was an upset over Iowa State. 57 00:02:32.840 --> 00:02:34.240 Yeah, you know, that was a good game. That was 58 00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:36.680 you look at their their overall records even now now 59 00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:38.680 that the games are over and they're almost identical. It 60 00:02:38.719 --> 00:02:41.120 was a really close game. I mean I was again, 61 00:02:41.120 --> 00:02:43.520 if you were watching it this morning, kind of side 62 00:02:43.560 --> 00:02:45.840 by side with the Duke game. They're both, you know, 63 00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:48.000 fun to watch, and we've seen those two teams. I 64 00:02:48.199 --> 00:02:50.319 was taking b YU you know what, like within the 65 00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:51.439 last couple of weeks easily. 66 00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:53.919 Yeah, I'm playing, Well, you're one of the hottest teams 67 00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:55.840 in the country right at least in the in the 68 00:02:55.919 --> 00:02:58.319 league for sure, definitely, and one of the one of 69 00:02:58.360 --> 00:03:00.439 the hottest in the West. If you want to consider 70 00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:03.080 the West of the whatever, right, you know, west of 71 00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:03.879 the Rockies. 72 00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:06.039 Yeah, I mean I would think that they're gonna, you know, 73 00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:09.159 it'd probably be what you know, five six. 74 00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:11.639 Seed there and there's teams that you don't want to play. 75 00:03:11.879 --> 00:03:15.680 They could be one of them. Yes, what about Saint John's, right, 76 00:03:16.039 --> 00:03:17.800 they have not played yet. I don't think they played. 77 00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:20.520 They beat Butler by twenty oh, they did by nineteen 78 00:03:20.560 --> 00:03:21.919 actually twenty one. 79 00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:24.840 So yeah, I mean, Patino's got to working there kind 80 00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:27.599 of out of nowhere. Honestly, Where where was Saint John's 81 00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:28.719 two three years ago? Well? 82 00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:30.919 That's the funny thing is I think that he's in 83 00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:33.439 my opinion and whatever that's worth. Bet mean, he's the 84 00:03:33.439 --> 00:03:36.800 best college coach in the country right now. The thing 85 00:03:36.800 --> 00:03:38.719 about it, and people are saying exactly what you said, 86 00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:41.599 where's this team coming from? Apparently they paid the team 87 00:03:41.639 --> 00:03:42.360 five million dollars. 88 00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:44.960 There you go. You know, do you follow horse racing? 89 00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:47.080 Not like you, but okay a little bit. 90 00:03:47.240 --> 00:03:48.840 So I was kind of, you know, thinking about this 91 00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:50.479 last night. I don't know why I came into mind, 92 00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:52.240 but I follow racing. They have for a long time, 93 00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:55.639 and some of the better horses, if not the best 94 00:03:55.719 --> 00:03:58.240 best horses are the ones that you know obviously playing 95 00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:02.080 the running, the breeders, in the in the Kentucky Derby, 96 00:04:02.120 --> 00:04:04.759 all the big races, right, those are bought for half 97 00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:07.680 a million to two three four million dollars. Guess what 98 00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:12.840 basketball has turned into horse racing. You're paying premium prices 99 00:04:12.840 --> 00:04:15.680 for the best players, and the people who can't afford 100 00:04:15.719 --> 00:04:21.600 those horses where they pay millions at the sale are 101 00:04:21.639 --> 00:04:24.240 going to be shut out. And Arizona has its lump 102 00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:27.920 of lump of bag right for whatever millions because I'm 103 00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:29.600 sure it has to be in the millions, But can 104 00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:32.560 it compete with these people that they have to compete 105 00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:34.319 with at this elite level. 106 00:04:34.519 --> 00:04:35.839 Well, they're going to have to. I mean, you know, 107 00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:38.680 you know they're paying Caleb Love quite a bit of 108 00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:40.879 money and he's going to be gone. So there's that 109 00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:43.720 money there maybe to keep and then to keep to 110 00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:45.920 keep the next group or whoever is it is Carter 111 00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:48.759 Brian going to stick around or you know who knows? 112 00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:51.079 Let me ask you, because I'll consider you an expert 113 00:04:51.079 --> 00:04:52.879 in this because you were in the business for a while, 114 00:04:53.319 --> 00:04:57.560 how difficult is it to convince X, Y and Z 115 00:04:58.120 --> 00:05:03.759 people with money who get involved emotionally or otherwise whatever 116 00:05:03.759 --> 00:05:07.519 word you want to use to pay their former school 117 00:05:08.120 --> 00:05:12.680 handsomely to succeed. And you did it non athletically. Is 118 00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:14.199 it you think it's easier athletically. 119 00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:20.920 I don't know. I mean I guess only because you 120 00:05:20.959 --> 00:05:24.199 can really see it almost instantly in action, as opposed 121 00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:27.040 to being the scholarship money or something like that where 122 00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:28.639 you're not quite sure what that student is going to 123 00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:31.600 turn out. He may discover a cure for cancer, you know, 124 00:05:31.639 --> 00:05:34.120 because you got him into school, but that may be 125 00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:36.759 in fifty years or like a wing or like a 126 00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:39.759 wing to the University of Yeah, I mean, athletics is 127 00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:42.480 a different, different animal when it comes to giving. 128 00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:45.639 But I'm sure you talk to those people, those people 129 00:05:45.639 --> 00:05:48.519 that are hustling money for the U of Atholt how 130 00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:49.439 difficult it is. 131 00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:52.680 They might they must it must be tough. Well, I mean, 132 00:05:52.720 --> 00:05:54.319 you know, a lot of what they're doing is there's 133 00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:57.079 buying access to the arenas and buying access to the 134 00:05:57.120 --> 00:06:00.240 football stadiums and getting good seats, maybe getting invited do 135 00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:02.959 road trips things like that based on what they get. 136 00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:07.160 I mean, there's some incentive to giving, but in terms 137 00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:09.279 of the nil that's kind of something that I never 138 00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:11.759 really had to deal with. Yeah, honestly, and I'm not 139 00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:15.000 quite sure how they approach donors, like, Okay, do you 140 00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:16.560 have a bucket of donors who are just going to 141 00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:18.680 give to athletics and they're going to get to you know, 142 00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:21.240 make sure this football stadium gets improved, or they going 143 00:06:21.279 --> 00:06:23.959 to give to money here to pay the basketball team. Yeah, 144 00:06:24.000 --> 00:06:26.199 it's a whole I mean, it might be two different things, 145 00:06:26.680 --> 00:06:28.800 and you know you kind of have to just check 146 00:06:28.839 --> 00:06:30.879 on who's giving and why they're giving. 147 00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:32.720 Yeah. No, it's a crazy time. 148 00:06:32.759 --> 00:06:35.040 And we talked a little about it yesterday with one 149 00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:37.920 of our author guys, Russ Bradberg. But the situation in 150 00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:40.959 terms of Nil and the way things are today. He 151 00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:43.480 wrote that book started ten years ago and then kind 152 00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:46.199 of how it turned into this book where we're in today. 153 00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:48.279 It was more academics than it was athletics, but it 154 00:06:48.399 --> 00:06:50.800 kind of combined the two. And that's it too. Do 155 00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:52.519 you think do you think. 156 00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:54.000 I won't even go there. 157 00:06:54.040 --> 00:06:56.399 I was going to say, trying to blend athletics and 158 00:06:56.600 --> 00:06:59.600 academics because that's always been a touchy subject. 159 00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:03.319 Right, Well, I mean just about if you're talking with alumni. 160 00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:07.560 You know, Number one, they probably graduated in something and 161 00:07:07.600 --> 00:07:09.920 they weren't athletes. Chances are and they're going to want 162 00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:11.600 to support that. That might be the number one thing 163 00:07:11.639 --> 00:07:14.360 they care about. Hey, you know, I became a great businessman. 164 00:07:14.399 --> 00:07:17.639 I'd like to you know, support the business college. You know, Oh, athletics, Okay, 165 00:07:17.639 --> 00:07:20.079 I'll give you some. But then other people maybe have 166 00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:22.560 a great passion for athletics and they want to give 167 00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:25.759 to that. It really is up to the donor, right, 168 00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:28.720 and it's the job of the development officer to find 169 00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:31.000 out what they're really interested in and what the needs are. 170 00:07:31.160 --> 00:07:33.120 It's funny I read a story not too long ago, 171 00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:37.759 and I've probably botched the numbers. But every school, every 172 00:07:37.800 --> 00:07:41.279 school like Arizona who's had some success in basketball, at 173 00:07:41.360 --> 00:07:45.639 least specific to basketball, it's it's tough to get those 174 00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:48.920 people who have been successful and have made a lot 175 00:07:48.959 --> 00:07:51.040 of money to give back. 176 00:07:51.560 --> 00:07:52.519 You know, Richard did it. 177 00:07:52.639 --> 00:07:55.360 Richard did it many years ago, and it's already been 178 00:07:55.639 --> 00:07:58.800 many years ago, right, But it's the and I know 179 00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:02.519 Steve does, Puick does, and people that we we know, right, 180 00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:04.360 and some people just don't want to be known that 181 00:08:04.360 --> 00:08:07.079 they've done this, which more power to them. But you 182 00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:09.160 know what I'm saying, it's I'm sure they don't. They 183 00:08:09.160 --> 00:08:12.360 haven't given back. Not that this place started their career, 184 00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:13.879 but it kind of started their career. 185 00:08:13.639 --> 00:08:16.519 Oh it did. Yeah. I mean people do give anonymously 186 00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:19.920 for sure. And I was talking to some people recently 187 00:08:19.959 --> 00:08:22.399 just about you know what, they're still in their twenties 188 00:08:22.399 --> 00:08:24.600 and thirties. Yeah, you know, even though they're making you know, 189 00:08:24.759 --> 00:08:27.639 maybe hundreds of millions of dollars, they're not even thinking 190 00:08:27.639 --> 00:08:29.319 about that just yet. I mean, maybe they're you know, 191 00:08:29.439 --> 00:08:31.639 have a family, or maybe they're just just trying to 192 00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:35.080 die that much wife. I mean, I'm talking pro athletes 193 00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:38.120 ros after they've left here. Okay, you know they may 194 00:08:38.120 --> 00:08:40.080 not you know, don't go ask them, you know, to 195 00:08:40.120 --> 00:08:43.120 give a gigantic gift that there in their thirties. Wait 196 00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:45.799 till they're in their fifties. Yeah, and they've really accumulated money, 197 00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:48.519 and that money, you know, work trans you know, works 198 00:08:48.559 --> 00:08:50.799 for them. Yeah. So that's kind of how how it 199 00:08:50.840 --> 00:08:51.759 plays out. Yeah. 200 00:08:51.919 --> 00:08:54.960 Well, and those who do do it or care, you 201 00:08:55.000 --> 00:08:56.840 know what I'm saying, And they'll they'll do it on 202 00:08:56.879 --> 00:08:57.279 their own. 203 00:08:57.679 --> 00:08:59.399 Well, look at the guy that owns the Phoenix Suns. 204 00:08:59.480 --> 00:09:01.799 You know, he's a huge booster at Michigan State. He 205 00:09:01.840 --> 00:09:03.919 played there. You know, then he goes off and you know, 206 00:09:03.960 --> 00:09:07.200 becomes a multi zillionaire in the real in the mortgage business. Yeah, 207 00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:09.120 you know, but he's and he's still pretty young. He's 208 00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:12.440 probably not even fifty. But that's a rare example of 209 00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:15.080 somebody who's doing something like that. Yeah. 210 00:09:15.159 --> 00:09:17.039 Well, you've had you've had that here a time or 211 00:09:17.039 --> 00:09:19.440 two with certain people, you know, I mean the big 212 00:09:19.519 --> 00:09:23.039 the big guys, the Modenos and the uh those guys 213 00:09:23.159 --> 00:09:25.279 just need to come back. And everybody's still kind of waiting. 214 00:09:25.360 --> 00:09:27.279 What's going to happen if these guys come back and 215 00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:29.559 there's a few of them. Oh yeah, so we we'll see. 216 00:09:29.639 --> 00:09:32.159 Did you ever have to pursue him? Probably not, because. 217 00:09:31.919 --> 00:09:33.320 He's more more athletics. 218 00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:35.639 Yeah, and then you get to pick your spots, right, 219 00:09:35.879 --> 00:09:36.679 we have to stay out. 220 00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:38.639 Of the way now, really, I mean, you know, you 221 00:09:38.639 --> 00:09:40.440 don't want to have a one hundred people talking to 222 00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:42.360 the same personal and you don't want to have like 223 00:09:42.559 --> 00:09:45.440 two right, you know, a coach and an athletic director 224 00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:49.159 you know, maybe meet the players things like that, so 225 00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:50.720 you don't we kind of have to stay away from 226 00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:53.240 That's how it works. Even in academics, you know, they 227 00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:55.840 don't need five people talking to one donor. 228 00:09:56.039 --> 00:09:58.159 Yeah, right, well, we have a pretty good show today, 229 00:09:58.240 --> 00:10:01.399 I think my hope. So yeah, let me see here 230 00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:05.200 we're gonna have let me just try to get the 231 00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:09.919 proper name of we're gonna have the Gonzales kid, the 232 00:10:10.159 --> 00:10:13.360 best player on the team by points and stuff, with 233 00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:16.159 the number one team in the country, a Pima College 234 00:10:17.279 --> 00:10:19.919 con j I think it is you are you watching it? 235 00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:22.159 I'm looking at Cohen. It's Jay. 236 00:10:22.200 --> 00:10:25.200 It's Jay's the last I have to go and see 237 00:10:25.240 --> 00:10:28.240 my thing. Gonzales. Yeah, and he's got th he he's 238 00:10:28.279 --> 00:10:30.559 averaging maybe at least nineteen points a game. So they're 239 00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:35.159 headed to the big dance for themselves tomorrow. PEMA is 240 00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:40.120 the number one seed in the whole entire tournament, number 241 00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:42.440 one in the country throughout thirty one in zero I 242 00:10:42.480 --> 00:10:46.039 think if not venerable. Yeah, yeah, so we'll talk to him, 243 00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:47.679 and then we're gonna talk to you guys. 244 00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:52.320 O'Brien, Yeah, Keith O'Brien again. The Tu Song Festival books 245 00:10:52.360 --> 00:10:54.799 just a couple of days away now, so I'm part 246 00:10:54.840 --> 00:10:58.080 of one of the committees there, and Keith O'Brien has 247 00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:00.840 written a book about Pete Rose called Charlie, and we'll 248 00:11:00.879 --> 00:11:04.039 have him in the second hour. He's back east getting 249 00:11:04.080 --> 00:11:06.320 set to come out here to the warm desert where 250 00:11:06.320 --> 00:11:09.480 it's supposed to be at maybe a little wet over 251 00:11:09.519 --> 00:11:11.399 the weekend, but hopefully not too bad. So we're looking 252 00:11:11.440 --> 00:11:17.000 forward to hearing from him. Longtime writer author, now he 253 00:11:17.000 --> 00:11:19.320 has written a handful of books and so this is 254 00:11:19.320 --> 00:11:22.720 his latest called Charlie Hustle, and it's interesting and came 255 00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:25.600 out and since then Pete Rose has passed away, so 256 00:11:25.679 --> 00:11:28.799 that'll be some good interesting things to talk about with him. 257 00:11:29.039 --> 00:11:31.000 He had a chance to work on that book for 258 00:11:31.080 --> 00:11:32.039 a long time. I'm sure. 259 00:11:32.440 --> 00:11:34.320 Yeah, Okay, that'll be a lot of fun for me. 260 00:11:34.440 --> 00:11:36.519 Like I said, I followed it Pete Rose alone time. 261 00:11:36.559 --> 00:11:38.600 When I was a childhood he role of mine, and 262 00:11:38.639 --> 00:11:40.519 then as I got older, I just kind of stopped 263 00:11:41.039 --> 00:11:42.600 being a follow over heroes. 264 00:11:42.759 --> 00:11:44.600 Yeah. I mean, I don't know if people do remember this, 265 00:11:44.679 --> 00:11:49.559 but back mid eighties he came out here when Dave 266 00:11:49.679 --> 00:11:52.759 Sitting used to put together these alumni games and he 267 00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:56.279 would bring in a guest manager and Rose was still playing, 268 00:11:56.440 --> 00:11:58.559 and he might have been managing at that point too. 269 00:11:58.600 --> 00:12:00.799 But he came and he was out there sandset field, 270 00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:04.080 you know, taking taking hacks, and that's pretty Yeah. He 271 00:12:04.080 --> 00:12:05.679 was pretty good Winny, Yeah he was. He was really 272 00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:06.440 good to everybody. 273 00:12:08.960 --> 00:12:09.159 Yeah. 274 00:12:09.399 --> 00:12:12.279 Busy day, busy weekend, but yeah, try to squeeze in 275 00:12:12.320 --> 00:12:14.320 some basketball around there, with of course the game tonight. 276 00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:16.159 Yeah, we'll talk about tonight's the game as well.

I didn't realize that there 279 00:12:19.799 --> 00:12:22.360 were three and a half point favorite. I was surprised 280 00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:24.799 about that too. Who did they not see the game 281 00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:30.120 on Saturday or well, they saw last night's game. It 282 00:12:30.159 --> 00:12:31.879 was like, holy crap, It's like they don't want to 283 00:12:31.879 --> 00:12:32.480 win this game. 284 00:12:32.600 --> 00:12:33.919 Yeah it was amazing. 285 00:12:34.519 --> 00:12:37.960 Uh but you know, every style, every style and every 286 00:12:38.000 --> 00:12:42.879 frustration happens and Florida Central Florida played out of their mind. 287 00:12:42.919 --> 00:12:43.080 Yeah. 288 00:12:43.159 --> 00:12:45.759 Every time they went down there three didn't they lose 289 00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:48.399 to them by like fifty Yeah, it was got destroyed 290 00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:50.320 by them. During the season. I want to say it's 291 00:12:50.320 --> 00:12:50.840 time and strict. 292 00:12:51.039 --> 00:12:52.720 That's why you know, I think I went pop up 293 00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:53.320 with this history. 294 00:12:53.440 --> 00:12:56.360 I think Arizona's gonna win because it's tough to beat 295 00:12:56.360 --> 00:12:58.679 a team twice in the year and twice in a week. 296 00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:01.000 Yeah, you think they have any thing set up to 297 00:13:01.039 --> 00:13:03.960 defend Dickinson differently than they did, They're gonna have to. 298 00:13:04.000 --> 00:13:06.200 They're going to have to write he had a pretty 299 00:13:06.200 --> 00:13:09.519 good game last night, not like no, no, he's had 300 00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:10.240 a career high. 301 00:13:10.200 --> 00:13:11.159 Thirty three that day. 302 00:13:11.399 --> 00:13:11.799 I don't know. 303 00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:14.720 The VSAR is gonna have to watch his fouls and 304 00:13:15.320 --> 00:13:18.320 defend him better if I guess he was part time 305 00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:21.559 on him, right, yeah, part time, And so we'll see, 306 00:13:21.759 --> 00:13:22.320 we'll see. 307 00:13:23.519 --> 00:13:26.240 That court is very strange. It's tough to watch games 308 00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:26.559 on that. 309 00:13:27.000 --> 00:13:30.480 You did you have you noticed the ball because the 310 00:13:30.480 --> 00:13:32.480 ball has been in play for three years now. I 311 00:13:32.519 --> 00:13:34.559 think that's the ball that they're using for the tournament, 312 00:13:34.720 --> 00:13:36.519 and it's a different ball they've had in the regular season. 313 00:13:36.600 --> 00:13:37.320 It bounces more. 314 00:13:37.399 --> 00:13:39.639 I noticed this two years ago, three years ago whatever 315 00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:41.240 they brought it in and it was just strange. And 316 00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:43.120 then last year Timmy about it up where it's kind 317 00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:46.279 of a different ball. If you notice there's a lot 318 00:13:46.279 --> 00:13:49.799 of loose balls more than normal because it bounces different. 319 00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:53.559 And the bounces off the rims are higher, and it's 320 00:13:53.559 --> 00:13:56.840 just weird because it's a sponsored ball from somebody. If 321 00:13:56.879 --> 00:13:59.600 you kind of google google it in the time out 322 00:13:59.600 --> 00:14:01.200 here and we'll see where we go. 323 00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:02.159 That's gonna go. 324 00:14:02.559 --> 00:14:05.440 We're gonna go to a break, go to commercial and 325 00:14:05.600 --> 00:14:08.759 go get ahold of Cohen J.
