77
00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:10.599

78
00:04:10.800 --> 00:04:13.240
<v Speaker 2>Texas here a few in a few.

79
00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:16.439
<v Speaker 3>The women's team, after a tough road trip to the

80
00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:20.399
<v Speaker 3>Mountain Schools, beat rival Arizona State six fifty nine and

81
00:04:20.480 --> 00:04:26.319
<v Speaker 3>McHale Center. I was getting ready for softball fifteen to ten,

82
00:04:26.399 --> 00:04:28.000
<v Speaker 3>now six and six in conference.

83
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:33.759
<v Speaker 2>Still looking at are Yeah, but if they're up and

84
00:04:33.839 --> 00:04:37.040
<v Speaker 2>down big time. So they ask you, so you were

85
00:04:37.040 --> 00:04:40.439
<v Speaker 2>at softball, which softball game did you cover? Alabama? So

86
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:43.839
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure they're optimistic about that game. How did how

87
00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:48.240
<v Speaker 2>they look? How they look They looked real fast. Offensively,

88
00:04:48.319 --> 00:04:51.519
<v Speaker 2>they run the bases really well. Defensively, they get they

89
00:04:51.519 --> 00:04:53.879
<v Speaker 2>got a strong outfield where they can cover a lot

90
00:04:53.920 --> 00:04:54.240
<v Speaker 2>of ground.

91
00:04:54.319 --> 00:04:57.079
<v Speaker 3>Quick pitching looked pretty good. So I mean that's the

92
00:04:57.160 --> 00:05:01.040
<v Speaker 3>key to be successful. Yeah, only I've also only seen

93
00:05:01.079 --> 00:05:02.959
<v Speaker 3>one game they didn't.

94
00:05:03.279 --> 00:05:07.040
<v Speaker 2>Uh well, they certainly hit the ball. Yeah, they hit it.

95
00:05:07.800 --> 00:05:09.879
<v Speaker 2>She's she I don't know if she's up against it,

96
00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:13.319
<v Speaker 2>but this is her fourth year. They got it better.

97
00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:15.959
<v Speaker 3>I think I think there's a lot of expectations to

98
00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:18.600
<v Speaker 3>come with true because of camera. But of course I

99
00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:22.160
<v Speaker 3>think I don't know. There's a that's true, that is

100
00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:25.680
<v Speaker 3>very true. Not a lot of patience. I forget the

101
00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:31.079
<v Speaker 3>X factor there, but uh I know, yeah, number eleven Alabama.

102
00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:34.120
<v Speaker 3>You you shut him out through I think almost three

103
00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:36.560
<v Speaker 3>four and a half innings and then only get one

104
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:39.560
<v Speaker 3>run on the night. And that's obviously because they're they're

105
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:41.680
<v Speaker 3>Arizona's offense caught fire.

106
00:05:41.920 --> 00:05:43.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and uh.

107
00:05:43.279 --> 00:05:45.959
<v Speaker 3>So we'll see it should be it should be interesting

108
00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:47.279
<v Speaker 3>season for them.

109
00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:53.839
<v Speaker 2>Is a consultant. He's still kind of in the office.

110
00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:56.319
<v Speaker 2>You ask, you know what you're saying, Well, I am,

111
00:05:56.519 --> 00:05:59.279
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying that he is, but I don't know that

112
00:05:59.399 --> 00:06:02.600
<v Speaker 2>the coach softball coach, and I don't have her name,

113
00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:05.800
<v Speaker 2>but she was picked by care Yeah. So it's like,

114
00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:10.439
<v Speaker 2>does Careas say you're done? No, no, no, no, no

115
00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:13.000
<v Speaker 2>no no, not up to him. Yeah, I know it's

116
00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:15.319
<v Speaker 2>not up to him. But my point is, I bet

117
00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:17.759
<v Speaker 2>he has some influencer. Oh sure, of course they're gonna

118
00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:20.639
<v Speaker 2>ask him. Of course, of course. Yeah, I think that

119
00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:22.600
<v Speaker 2>I think that helps her. Yeah.

120
00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:25.439
<v Speaker 3>So after the road went at BYU and the home

121
00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:28.319
<v Speaker 3>win against Texas Tech, oh tobay O Waka was named

122
00:06:28.360 --> 00:06:30.360
<v Speaker 3>the Big Twelve Conference Newcomer of the Week.

123
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:31.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

124
00:06:31.399 --> 00:06:34.199
<v Speaker 3>Uh, pretty good performances back to back. Yeah, no, he

125
00:06:34.319 --> 00:06:36.639
<v Speaker 3>was fantastic. He's fantastic.

126
00:06:36.680 --> 00:06:39.480
<v Speaker 2>And then they didn't play without Townsend and and who

127
00:06:39.519 --> 00:06:40.959
<v Speaker 2>knows if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

128
00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:44.120
<v Speaker 2>So I think till the death at some point's gonna hurt.

129
00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:47.839
<v Speaker 2>It's gotta play a part. Maybe I'm wrong, but okay,

130

<v Speaker 2>so Newcomer of the week, Well, next week it's gonna

139
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:16.680
<v Speaker 2>will say, you know, you talk about the you know

140
00:07:16.720 --> 00:07:20.319
<v Speaker 2>the impact of six playing six or seven deep, I'll

141
00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:24.120
<v Speaker 2>tell you that they used to go right. So it's

142
00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:26.079
<v Speaker 2>it was one of those things where it's like fine

143
00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:28.879
<v Speaker 2>to do that. Let's talk about next year, you've got

144
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:32.240
<v Speaker 2>you play six seven deep. Previously it's like going, okay,

145
00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:35.000
<v Speaker 2>your other guys they're coming back next year because where

146
00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:38.079
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna go, yeah, okay, you're just going to develop

147
00:07:38.120 --> 00:07:40.199
<v Speaker 2>and eventually you'll be part of the six seven deep.

148
00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:43.079
<v Speaker 2>Now there's coaches going a little bit deeper, trying to

149
00:07:43.079 --> 00:07:44.759
<v Speaker 2>give these guys a little playing time so they don't

150
00:07:44.800 --> 00:07:48.639
<v Speaker 2>hit the transfer portal. But we talk about this long time,

151
00:07:48.680 --> 00:07:51.079
<v Speaker 2>like you have kids. I have kids, but they're gotten

152
00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:53.680
<v Speaker 2>mine or old enough. How do you make them happy?

153
00:07:53.839 --> 00:07:55.480
<v Speaker 2>How do you keep them happy? You got to you

154
00:07:55.519 --> 00:07:57.199
<v Speaker 2>got to keep them happier, they're going to leave, and

155
00:07:57.240 --> 00:07:59.079
<v Speaker 2>then if they leave, then you got okay. Then we're

156
00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:01.920
<v Speaker 2>not developing it. It's like going. So it's like, hey,

157
00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:04.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm going six seven deep, I'm out of here. I

158
00:08:04.759 --> 00:08:07.360
<v Speaker 2>gotta go, gotta go, and then I'm not party. I'm eight.

159
00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:09.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm not part of your plans. But yeah, exactly, I'm

160
00:08:09.399 --> 00:08:12.639
<v Speaker 2>number eight. Guess what I could be? Number four? Yeah? Well,

161
00:08:12.680 --> 00:08:15.199
<v Speaker 2>I know you saw it. I mean ones and Philip

162
00:08:15.279 --> 00:08:17.560
<v Speaker 2>is in New Mexico. I really don't know how well

163
00:08:17.560 --> 00:08:20.040
<v Speaker 2>he's doing with the kid that went to Saint Mary's.

164
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:22.759
<v Speaker 2>I think it is Ascus whatever his name is.

165
00:08:23.879 --> 00:08:24.079
<v Speaker 4>St.

166
00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:25.279
<v Speaker 2>Mary's or Santa Clara, one of those.

167
00:08:25.680 --> 00:08:28.480
<v Speaker 3>I know the ball he's gone, he's gone.

168
00:08:28.720 --> 00:08:29.759
<v Speaker 2>He went to a bunch of.

169
00:08:32.320 --> 00:08:34.440
<v Speaker 3>He went to Santa Clara, right, yeah, yeah, there's a

170
00:08:34.440 --> 00:08:37.519
<v Speaker 3>couple of the one he's playing really well in California.

171
00:08:37.559 --> 00:08:40.759
<v Speaker 2>I think it's Santa Clara. Maybe Saint Mary's one of those. So,

172
00:08:40.919 --> 00:08:43.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, but how do you keep these guys? These

173
00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:45.080
<v Speaker 2>kids are good. I mean they came here for a

174
00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:48.360
<v Speaker 2>reason because they're good. There's some deficiency's on defense or whatever,

175
00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:51.200
<v Speaker 2>but then they leave and then they shine. No Doug

176
00:08:51.279 --> 00:08:55.000
<v Speaker 2>they're good. That's why they came in. There's just no room, right,

177
00:08:55.080 --> 00:08:56.679
<v Speaker 2>And that's the thing about it. It's like, you're not

178
00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:00.200
<v Speaker 2>gonna okay it was it used to be less. You're

179
00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:01.879
<v Speaker 2>not gonna play this year. We're gonna go with a

180
00:09:01.879 --> 00:09:04.840
<v Speaker 2>seven man rotation. You're number eight, But I'm telling you

181
00:09:04.840 --> 00:09:07.159
<v Speaker 2>something right now. Next year you're gonna be number three

182
00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:09.559
<v Speaker 2>and you're playing the full time. That's that's like going,

183
00:09:09.639 --> 00:09:11.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm out of here. That's how Luke got it. You know.

184
00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:13.559
<v Speaker 2>Then they left on loot too. But you know you're

185
00:09:13.559 --> 00:09:16.120
<v Speaker 2>playing against a top five. That's a pretty damn good

186
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:18.559
<v Speaker 2>top five. Guess what you're getting better by doing this?

187
00:09:18.879 --> 00:09:20.679
<v Speaker 2>Right in a year or so. It's like you ever

188
00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:22.799
<v Speaker 2>have a Volkswagen? Do you ever travel on a Volkswagen?

189
00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:27.840
<v Speaker 2>Like lot? How big was your trunk? You can only

190
00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:31.120
<v Speaker 2>fit so much into that trunk? You only have five, six,

191
00:09:31.200 --> 00:09:33.200
<v Speaker 2>seven people? You can kind of play? Yeah, I mean

192
00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:37.080
<v Speaker 2>you try, but you can. Yeah. Yeah, that's the thing

193
00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:38.720
<v Speaker 2>about I mean, you can't play everybody. But then you

194
00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:41.639
<v Speaker 2>got to think about it. It's like, what are we gonna

195
00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:43.240
<v Speaker 2>do now? You know, we really want to play you,

196
00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:44.879
<v Speaker 2>but you gotta make sure you'll be your next year.

197
00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:46.840
<v Speaker 2>We'll coach you. You know you said that, you promise

198
00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:49.759
<v Speaker 2>me this. No, okay, sorry.

199
00:09:49.559 --> 00:09:53.000
<v Speaker 3>No, so obviously Arizona beat Texas tack on Saturday eighty

200
00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:58.200
<v Speaker 3>two seventy three, some good breaking news. Well maybe no, no,

201
00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:01.879
<v Speaker 3>so Dick by Tel returned.

202
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:07.360
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, two sons. Not too keen on, mister, but

203
00:10:08.039 --> 00:10:08.879
<v Speaker 2>who knows. He might be.

204
00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:10.600
<v Speaker 3>He might be a good luck chron for Clemson because

205
00:10:10.600 --> 00:10:13.919
<v Speaker 3>they ended up upsetting number two Duke. Yeah, flag falls down,

206
00:10:14.559 --> 00:10:16.960
<v Speaker 3>he did that. He did one of the early early

207
00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:18.279
<v Speaker 3>game I think against Kentucky.

208
00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:19.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah.

209
00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:23.159
<v Speaker 3>Another top top team went down, number one Auburn at home.

210
00:10:23.480 --> 00:10:28.679
<v Speaker 2>It's number six Florida, who's number one? Now? Did you stay?

211
00:10:28.759 --> 00:10:31.480
<v Speaker 2>They said that they should stay even though they're pretty

212
00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:34.159
<v Speaker 2>damn good. Yeah yeah, I mean that's saying. But I

213
00:10:34.200 --> 00:10:38.320
<v Speaker 2>mean you're gonna lose games. You're gonna lose games. Yeah, sure, Florida.

214
00:10:38.320 --> 00:10:41.720
<v Speaker 2>You don't team that. I don't know. Florida's very Florida.

215
00:10:42.399 --> 00:10:45.799
<v Speaker 2>All these teams, there's there's no definitive top five or

216
00:10:45.879 --> 00:10:48.679
<v Speaker 2>six es. And Arizona like or he said, Erizone's probably

217
00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:49.879
<v Speaker 2>the hottest team in the country right.

218
00:10:49.759 --> 00:10:55.080
<v Speaker 3>Now, right, Yeah, they're not one Alabama to college game.

219
00:10:55.159 --> 00:10:58.480
<v Speaker 3>They will be there in Tuscaloosa this weekend. Florida moved

220
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:00.840
<v Speaker 3>up to number three. They're kind of I think, tied

221
00:11:00.840 --> 00:11:03.799
<v Speaker 3>with Duke for a number that third spot. Tennessee following

222
00:11:03.879 --> 00:11:06.360
<v Speaker 3>up five, and of course Arizona moved up to thirteen

223
00:11:06.759 --> 00:11:10.080
<v Speaker 3>from twenty, right right behind Texas Tech at number twelve.

224
00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:13.840
<v Speaker 2>And no fault on Texas Tech. They played a fantastic game.

225
00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:18.600
<v Speaker 2>It did your team on the road here, they were

226
00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:20.960
<v Speaker 2>shooting like crazy. I mean some un believed that kicked

227
00:11:21.000 --> 00:11:21.440
<v Speaker 2>him in there.

228
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:26.039
<v Speaker 3>So one commentary there came back. Another one called his

229
00:11:26.039 --> 00:11:27.759
<v Speaker 3>final game to be Brown at ninety one.

230
00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:31.240
<v Speaker 2>That I didn't really he was ninety one. Neither did I.

231
00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:35.759
<v Speaker 2>But I was working at ninety one, believe work at whatever?

232
00:11:35.960 --> 00:11:39.960
<v Speaker 2>What's that? Just a long career for yeah, you think? So?

233
00:11:40.120 --> 00:11:41.759
<v Speaker 2>Why did I didn't read the stories and all that?

234
00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:44.960
<v Speaker 2>Because I just didn't. Why did he quit? Now? When

235
00:11:44.960 --> 00:11:46.080
<v Speaker 2>did he just wait till the end of the year.

236
00:11:46.360 --> 00:11:49.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. It doesn't it doesn't, you know what

237
00:11:49.279 --> 00:11:54.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying. It's like ESPN's dilemma with uh, of course

238
00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:57.960
<v Speaker 2>of courso, I mean, at some point you got to say, yeah, yeah,

239
00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:01.919
<v Speaker 2>you're you're done here son. The I don't know, I

240
00:12:01.919 --> 00:12:05.159
<v Speaker 2>don't know. It's kind of tough there. I don't know

241
00:12:05.159 --> 00:12:07.360
<v Speaker 2>why he would leave. I mean in the middle of

242
00:12:07.519 --> 00:12:11.000
<v Speaker 2>maybe maybe I don't know. Maybe, I don't know why

243
00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:13.200
<v Speaker 2>would he leave now? I don't know that.

244
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:16.960
<v Speaker 3>To the NBA, be honest, I think will be missing

245
00:12:17.159 --> 00:12:21.039
<v Speaker 3>a couple of weeks with a left calf injury.

246
00:12:21.080 --> 00:12:23.559
<v Speaker 2>He'll be ruled out through the All Star break. What

247
00:12:23.600 --> 00:12:26.480
<v Speaker 2>about the big trade injury? Yeah, so I was gonna

248
00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:26.960
<v Speaker 2>get to that.

249
00:12:27.799 --> 00:12:30.799
<v Speaker 3>Because Jannie is missing the All Star Game, Trey Young

250
00:12:30.840 --> 00:12:32.960
<v Speaker 3>has been added as his injury replacement.

251
00:12:33.480 --> 00:12:33.679
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

252
00:12:33.720 --> 00:12:36.600
<v Speaker 3>He's been pretty vocal about not getting the initial nod,

253
00:12:36.679 --> 00:12:41.679
<v Speaker 3>but he'll he's settling for the oh now you want me, Yeah,

254
00:12:42.480 --> 00:12:44.080
<v Speaker 3>settling for the for the injury.

255
00:12:44.639 --> 00:12:50.679
<v Speaker 2>Lucas another another heartbroken multi multi millionaire.

256
00:12:51.559 --> 00:12:55.120
<v Speaker 3>God, I feel bad for him. I don't cry for Argentina.

257
00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:58.919
<v Speaker 3>I'll tell you what so Uh to that trade big

258
00:12:58.960 --> 00:13:01.399
<v Speaker 3>trade from about to week two weeks ago, about ten

00:13:01.480 --> 00:13:04.840
<v Speaker 3>days ago, Luca Dachas is prepared to make his Lakers

260
00:13:04.919 --> 00:13:07.159
<v Speaker 3>debut against the Jazz tonight.

261

<v Speaker 2>Okay, what about the other side, About the.

262
00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:13.399
<v Speaker 3>Other side, Uh, Anthony Davis is on multiple weeks with the.

264
00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:21.279
<v Speaker 2>didn't see that coming at all, not not one thing

265
00:13:21.320 --> 00:13:24.279
<v Speaker 2>that I did. You see the quotes from the Dallas

266
00:13:24.279 --> 00:13:28.279
<v Speaker 2>Mavericks owner about Luca He's fat, he doesn't try hard,

268
00:13:31.519 --> 00:13:34.440
<v Speaker 2>last year And we don't accept those things in Dallas

276
00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:05.759

301
00:15:13.279 --> 00:15:16.960
<v Speaker 2>that choice anymore. Well maybe, but that's not him. But

302
00:15:17.039 --> 00:15:26.960
<v Speaker 2>he comes in as a prima donna. Of course, exactly exactly.

306
00:15:40.600 --> 00:15:42.879
<v Speaker 2>That was just a sad That was a sad game,

307
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:47.720
<v Speaker 2>you think, so, I'm just you're watching for entertainment value.

308
00:15:47.759 --> 00:15:50.519
<v Speaker 2>There was no entertainment. Anybody who sits there and says

309
00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:53.840
<v Speaker 2>like going, hey, we don't need an offensive line. We

310
00:15:53.879 --> 00:15:55.480
<v Speaker 2>got we just got all that, we need all the

311
00:15:55.519 --> 00:16:00.000
<v Speaker 2>tools there. This is like, hey, you're an idiot, because

312
00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:02.240

313
00:16:02.440 --> 00:16:05.559
<v Speaker 2>The Philadelphia Eagles defensive line should have been m v

314
00:16:05.639 --> 00:16:07.519
<v Speaker 2>PS for that. I was wondering if they would do that.

315
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:10.159
<v Speaker 2>So what entertaining about it for you? Was it entertaining

316
00:16:10.159 --> 00:16:10.519
<v Speaker 2>to you?

317
00:16:10.600 --> 00:16:10.799
<v Speaker 1>Well?

318
00:16:10.840 --> 00:16:12.720

<v Speaker 2>on Fox Sports fourteen fifty. I'm Steve Rivera. In today

478
00:23:56.759 --> 00:23:59.000
<v Speaker 2>with me is Mike Quinn, got a plan at the keyboard,

479
00:23:59.039 --> 00:24:01.799
<v Speaker 2>and now we have Michael from the Arizona Daily Star. Michael,

480
00:24:01.839 --> 00:24:04.279
<v Speaker 2>how you doing pretty good?

481
00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:06.519
<v Speaker 9>How are you guys, ask.

482
00:24:06.319 --> 00:24:08.720
<v Speaker 2>You a question. We've been talking a lot about this

483
00:24:08.960 --> 00:24:12.559
<v Speaker 2>last hour. What impressed you the most on Saturday night?

484
00:24:15.599 --> 00:24:21.559
<v Speaker 7>I would say that it's a carryover of what's impressed

485
00:24:21.599 --> 00:24:25.559
<v Speaker 7>me for several weeks about this team, and that is

486
00:24:25.680 --> 00:24:28.039
<v Speaker 7>that they just seem to have a different kind of

487
00:24:28.039 --> 00:24:32.400
<v Speaker 7>a different DNA than previous Tommy Wood teams, uh in

488
00:24:32.440 --> 00:24:39.559
<v Speaker 7>that they're physically and maybe also mentally tougher than any squad.

489
00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:39.960
<v Speaker 9>That he's had.

490
00:24:40.759 --> 00:24:45.000
<v Speaker 7>I have a column that went up today saying that

491
00:24:45.279 --> 00:24:47.319
<v Speaker 7>they're his toughest and greddiest team.

492
00:24:47.720 --> 00:24:50.680
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, and kind of get into all the reasons why

493
00:24:50.720 --> 00:24:51.160
<v Speaker 9>that is.

494
00:24:51.279 --> 00:24:55.279
<v Speaker 7>But yeah, they you know, they they face this challenge

495
00:24:55.400 --> 00:24:59.599
<v Speaker 7>entering the Big twelve. They had to become that or

496
00:24:59.680 --> 00:25:02.839
<v Speaker 7>I think they would have been successful, and they've met

497
00:25:02.839 --> 00:25:03.680
<v Speaker 7>the challenge.

498
00:25:03.359 --> 00:25:03.839
<v Speaker 5>In a big way.

499
00:25:03.920 --> 00:25:05.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Yeah, no question, I think I think that's a

500
00:25:05.480 --> 00:25:09.000
<v Speaker 2>good number one that you said. In fact, I've been

501
00:25:09.000 --> 00:25:11.160
<v Speaker 2>covering the team for a long time, obviously, and I

502
00:25:11.160 --> 00:25:14.680
<v Speaker 2>don't remember even before the season started. I couldn't maybe

503
00:25:14.720 --> 00:25:19.000
<v Speaker 2>point out but maybe one or two physically tough teams

504
00:25:19.000 --> 00:25:22.039
<v Speaker 2>that I covered since ninety one, and this is one

505
00:25:22.079 --> 00:25:24.400
<v Speaker 2>of them. And I even asked the question about to me,

506
00:25:24.559 --> 00:25:27.759
<v Speaker 2>it's the peskiest that he's had. He kind of debated

507
00:25:27.759 --> 00:25:30.200
<v Speaker 2>that a little, but I would I would say that's true.

508
00:25:32.720 --> 00:25:35.720
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, I like that term that you used because that's

509
00:25:35.720 --> 00:25:39.559
<v Speaker 7>how I would definitely describe the way that Jayden Bradley

510
00:25:39.599 --> 00:25:43.000
<v Speaker 7>plays defense the way that Caleb Love plays defense. kJ

511
00:25:43.079 --> 00:25:48.200
<v Speaker 7>Lewis is probably on another level beyond pesky. He's he's

512
00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:54.119
<v Speaker 7>a force onto himself, and Carter Bryant is a very

513
00:25:54.160 --> 00:25:57.640
<v Speaker 7>good defender also, hands just all over the place.

514
00:25:57.400 --> 00:25:59.720
<v Speaker 2>All the time, but follow but he's not using him

515
00:25:59.720 --> 00:26:00.480
<v Speaker 2>to Yeah.

516
00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:02.799
<v Speaker 9>Sometimes yeah, sometimes he's a little bit out of control.

517
00:26:02.839 --> 00:26:06.319
<v Speaker 7>Henry Bassar has been a major difference maker on both

518
00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:10.240
<v Speaker 7>ends of the court, you know, not just with his scoring,

519
00:26:10.279 --> 00:26:14.880
<v Speaker 7>his dunking, his shooting, but his rebounding, his ability to challenge.

520
00:26:14.559 --> 00:26:15.839
<v Speaker 9>Shots, affect shots.

521
00:26:17.000 --> 00:26:20.119
<v Speaker 7>That's been a huge, huge factor for his mobility too,

522
00:26:20.279 --> 00:26:23.119
<v Speaker 7>is another thing, like he's not just a statue in

523
00:26:23.160 --> 00:26:26.000
<v Speaker 7>there on either end of the court. And then Tobya Waka,

524
00:26:27.200 --> 00:26:30.799
<v Speaker 7>you know, he's just it'd be immovable object down there,

525
00:26:30.799 --> 00:26:33.039
<v Speaker 7>the guy that you need to have to pull down

526
00:26:33.039 --> 00:26:34.680
<v Speaker 7>a rebound kind of whenever you need it.

527
00:26:34.759 --> 00:26:36.400
<v Speaker 9>So I think.

528
00:26:36.240 --> 00:26:39.599
<v Speaker 7>I listed all top of their top six guys. I

529
00:26:39.799 --> 00:26:41.440
<v Speaker 7>mentioned in the column that they all kind of have

530
00:26:41.759 --> 00:26:45.640
<v Speaker 7>an impact on the defensive end in one way or another,

531
00:26:45.720 --> 00:26:50.039
<v Speaker 7>whether that steals, blocks, rebounds, whatever the case. And yeah,

532
00:26:50.200 --> 00:26:55.240
<v Speaker 7>you know, hopefully this will mean that they can last

533
00:26:55.319 --> 00:26:57.039
<v Speaker 7>longer in the NCAA tournament.

534
00:26:58.960 --> 00:27:01.599
<v Speaker 9>That's that's that's the obvious question.

535
00:27:01.839 --> 00:27:04.640
<v Speaker 7>That the one thing that Tommy Wood hasn't done since

536
00:27:04.680 --> 00:27:05.279
<v Speaker 7>he's been here.

537
00:27:05.400 --> 00:27:07.079
<v Speaker 9>Maybe maybe this team has this stuff.

538
00:27:07.079 --> 00:27:07.519
<v Speaker 5>We'll see.

539
00:27:07.640 --> 00:27:10.160
<v Speaker 2>Well, we have the beat writer from the Kansas State

540
00:27:10.559 --> 00:27:13.640
<v Speaker 2>team here last hour, so I asked him, Okay, Kansas

541
00:27:13.680 --> 00:27:16.319
<v Speaker 2>State is going six to seven deep. Now Arizona's going

542
00:27:16.480 --> 00:27:19.000
<v Speaker 2>seven deep. Maybe if Talenton doesn't come back for a while,

543
00:27:19.519 --> 00:27:23.799
<v Speaker 2>can can Tommy sustain this level given that the depth

544
00:27:23.880 --> 00:27:26.279
<v Speaker 2>is going to be very slight and then we're what

545
00:27:26.720 --> 00:27:30.839
<v Speaker 2>maybe two months away from the tournament or I'm sorry.

546
00:27:30.720 --> 00:27:31.119
<v Speaker 5>I don't like.

547
00:27:31.480 --> 00:27:33.920
<v Speaker 9>I don't like. Yeah, yeah, I don't like the seven

548
00:27:33.960 --> 00:27:34.519
<v Speaker 9>man rotation.

549
00:27:35.880 --> 00:27:38.319
<v Speaker 7>They've they've flirted with that in the past, they've been

550
00:27:38.319 --> 00:27:40.799
<v Speaker 7>in that situation. I don't think it's ideal. I know

551
00:27:40.880 --> 00:27:42.960
<v Speaker 7>that a lot of people are down on Trey Townsend,

552
00:27:43.119 --> 00:27:46.759
<v Speaker 7>and I think he can definitely can play better I

553
00:27:46.799 --> 00:27:49.519
<v Speaker 7>think he might need to kind of, you know, take

554
00:27:49.559 --> 00:27:52.839
<v Speaker 7>this time away to reassess what his role should be

555
00:27:52.920 --> 00:27:55.839
<v Speaker 7>on this team. I don't, you know, it's been a

556
00:27:55.880 --> 00:27:58.599
<v Speaker 7>difficult transition for him from kind of being the man

557
00:27:59.480 --> 00:28:02.519
<v Speaker 7>at Oakland to just being a role player here. But

558
00:28:02.599 --> 00:28:05.279
<v Speaker 7>there's a kind of a domino effect of not having him,

559
00:28:05.400 --> 00:28:07.640
<v Speaker 7>you know, you just you're down one guy and it's

560
00:28:07.680 --> 00:28:09.839
<v Speaker 7>just more minutes for everybody else, and then you're kind

561
00:28:09.839 --> 00:28:12.680
<v Speaker 7>of one injury away from having sixty six guys. So

562
00:28:12.759 --> 00:28:15.400
<v Speaker 7>I would love to see him sprinkle in a little

563
00:28:15.400 --> 00:28:18.680
<v Speaker 7>bit of Emmanuel Stefan, a little bit of Conrad Martinez,

564
00:28:19.039 --> 00:28:22.079
<v Speaker 7>even if it's just five or six minutes in the game,

565
00:28:22.160 --> 00:28:25.960
<v Speaker 7>that makes a difference. You don't want Caleb Love and

566
00:28:26.039 --> 00:28:28.000
<v Speaker 7>Jayden Bradley to have to play thirty nine.

567
00:28:27.839 --> 00:28:29.599
<v Speaker 9>Minutes every game, which is what they played in this

568
00:28:29.680 --> 00:28:30.160
<v Speaker 9>last game.

569
00:28:30.960 --> 00:28:36.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, So what what changed in our you know, in

570
00:28:36.759 --> 00:28:41.279
<v Speaker 2>in what we've done and I and probably defensively is

571
00:28:41.839 --> 00:28:44.240
<v Speaker 2>the best way, Well what change that got us going

572
00:28:44.319 --> 00:28:48.359
<v Speaker 2>on this stuff? I mean it can just be like twelve.

573
00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:52.480
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, that's a great question, Like is it just a

574
00:28:52.599 --> 00:28:54.519
<v Speaker 7>mentality that's changed?

575
00:28:54.799 --> 00:28:56.759
<v Speaker 9>Is it a you know, sort of.

576
00:28:56.720 --> 00:29:02.759
<v Speaker 7>A prolonged coaching emphasis or is it just that they

577
00:29:02.880 --> 00:29:06.440
<v Speaker 7>the guys that they have, that they're those types of players,

578
00:29:06.480 --> 00:29:08.519
<v Speaker 7>you know, they're kind of they got some junkyard dogs,

579
00:29:08.559 --> 00:29:13.680
<v Speaker 7>you know, like kJ Lewis and Carter Bryant and Henry Vassar.

580
00:29:13.799 --> 00:29:16.440
<v Speaker 7>Their their tone setters, you know, just the way that

581
00:29:16.480 --> 00:29:21.039
<v Speaker 7>they attack people. And kJ of course had a pretty

582
00:29:21.039 --> 00:29:24.799
<v Speaker 7>big role on last year's team, but not as not

583
00:29:24.880 --> 00:29:26.839
<v Speaker 7>as important of a role as he has now. And

584
00:29:27.000 --> 00:29:29.599
<v Speaker 7>Carter Bryant wasn't here, Henry Vasar wasn't.

585
00:29:29.400 --> 00:29:30.039
<v Speaker 9>Part of the mix.

586
00:29:30.079 --> 00:29:34.759
<v Speaker 7>I think those guys have really changed the nature of

587
00:29:34.799 --> 00:29:37.440
<v Speaker 7>this team in a big way. And you see someone

588
00:29:37.480 --> 00:29:41.720
<v Speaker 7>like Caleb Love kind of the contagious nature of it.

589
00:29:42.039 --> 00:29:45.319
<v Speaker 7>Caleb Love is playing that way now whereas maybe he

590
00:29:45.319 --> 00:29:47.359
<v Speaker 7>wouldn't have before because you kind of see everybody else

591
00:29:47.400 --> 00:29:50.559
<v Speaker 7>doing it, you know, it like becomes It's this mentality

592
00:29:50.599 --> 00:29:53.599
<v Speaker 7>that that kind of takes over and permeates everything.

593
00:29:53.759 --> 00:29:55.400
<v Speaker 2>So one of the things the reason why I asked

594
00:29:55.400 --> 00:29:57.240
<v Speaker 2>what really impressed you? I thought you might go the

595
00:29:57.240 --> 00:30:01.359
<v Speaker 2>way I went. Uh, And that's Henry v how he played,

596
00:30:01.400 --> 00:30:02.839
<v Speaker 2>you know, he looked like he was on his last

597
00:30:02.920 --> 00:30:04.839
<v Speaker 2>leg and then he found another leg. But it's like,

598
00:30:04.960 --> 00:30:07.039
<v Speaker 2>here's this dude, could I buy you a sandwich? Because

599
00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:10.319
<v Speaker 2>you look thin? And then he comes up, he comes

600
00:30:10.400 --> 00:30:12.680
<v Speaker 2>up Like I even asked that question, is how does

601
00:30:12.680 --> 00:30:15.559
<v Speaker 2>the seven footer looking like him become a beast? And

602
00:30:15.640 --> 00:30:17.079
<v Speaker 2>he was a beast he was.

603
00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:22.319
<v Speaker 7>And he's listed at two hundred and thirty five pounds.

604
00:30:23.039 --> 00:30:24.480
<v Speaker 7>They have these, you know, if you go on there

605
00:30:24.559 --> 00:30:27.079
<v Speaker 7>on their roster page and if someone's been there for

606
00:30:27.119 --> 00:30:29.720
<v Speaker 7>a few years, you can click on this button called

607
00:30:29.880 --> 00:30:33.200
<v Speaker 7>historical right, so he's listed at two hundred pounds as

608
00:30:33.200 --> 00:30:35.559
<v Speaker 7>a freshman, two twenty five as a sophomore two thirty

609
00:30:35.599 --> 00:30:40.839
<v Speaker 7>five currently as a red shirt sophomore. But you know,

610
00:30:40.920 --> 00:30:45.039
<v Speaker 7>compared to Tobya Waca, like he does look skinny, right, Yeah,

611
00:30:45.079 --> 00:30:47.640
<v Speaker 7>I think he's you know, probably stronger than he looks.

612
00:30:48.559 --> 00:30:53.079
<v Speaker 9>And he just like he just plays.

613
00:30:52.720 --> 00:30:57.119
<v Speaker 7>Like you would not expect a European whose name people

614
00:30:57.200 --> 00:31:01.319
<v Speaker 7>might mispronounce as Henri to play, you know, like he

615
00:31:01.519 --> 00:31:04.720
<v Speaker 7>is a menace out there. He had that kind of

616
00:31:05.680 --> 00:31:10.039
<v Speaker 7>like this ball is mine kind of mentality. It was

617
00:31:10.079 --> 00:31:13.240
<v Speaker 7>one there was one coming our way, Steve where he

618
00:31:13.359 --> 00:31:16.160
<v Speaker 7>just ripped the rebound away from his teammates, you know,

619
00:31:16.240 --> 00:31:18.359
<v Speaker 7>and like you're almost worried that he's going to swing

620
00:31:18.400 --> 00:31:21.960
<v Speaker 7>an elbow into one of his teamates faces, Like he

621
00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:24.240
<v Speaker 7>wanted that ball really badly, and.

622
00:31:24.160 --> 00:31:26.559
<v Speaker 9>That's what you love to see. And the threshold that

623
00:31:26.599 --> 00:31:27.039
<v Speaker 9>he kind.

624
00:31:26.880 --> 00:31:29.519
<v Speaker 7>Of crossed in this game was playing more minutes, because

625
00:31:29.519 --> 00:31:33.680
<v Speaker 7>we've seen him play really really hard for four or

626
00:31:33.720 --> 00:31:37.400
<v Speaker 7>five minutes at a stretch and not you know, not

627
00:31:37.480 --> 00:31:39.279
<v Speaker 7>being able to sustain that, but he kind of had

628
00:31:39.319 --> 00:31:42.200
<v Speaker 7>to because of the shortened you know, the shortened rotation.

629
00:31:41.880 --> 00:31:42.279
<v Speaker 10>That they had.

630
00:31:42.559 --> 00:31:46.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, no, no question. And you talked about you

631
00:31:46.720 --> 00:31:48.960
<v Speaker 2>talked about four guys. I don't know if I paid

632
00:31:49.079 --> 00:31:52.119
<v Speaker 2>enough attention to uh they don't have talentsend and they don't.

633
00:31:52.160 --> 00:31:55.359
<v Speaker 2>They're not getting much or haven't been getting much from

634
00:31:55.680 --> 00:31:59.240
<v Speaker 2>uh Delorso, which, of course you need him every now

635
00:31:59.240 --> 00:32:01.839
<v Speaker 2>and again to sprinkle a three pointer or two. But

636
00:32:02.160 --> 00:32:05.000
<v Speaker 2>they're playing with kind of four dudes that are playing

637
00:32:05.039 --> 00:32:05.799
<v Speaker 2>out of their mind.

638
00:32:09.000 --> 00:32:14.920
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, I mean, Deloso is an interesting one. He has

639
00:32:14.960 --> 00:32:17.920
<v Speaker 7>his moments, yeah, and then he does. But there are

640
00:32:17.960 --> 00:32:20.279
<v Speaker 7>certain games, Yeah, in certain games where he you know,

641
00:32:20.599 --> 00:32:23.640
<v Speaker 7>he doesn't really he he's different from the other guys.

642
00:32:24.319 --> 00:32:27.160
<v Speaker 9>He's kind of just a specialist to me, you know,

643
00:32:27.400 --> 00:32:30.039
<v Speaker 9>like he's I mean, he's a pretty decent playmaker.

644
00:32:30.400 --> 00:32:33.480
<v Speaker 7>He sometimes will surprise you with some of the stuff

645
00:32:33.480 --> 00:32:35.880
<v Speaker 7>he's able to do in the lane or around the hole,

646
00:32:35.920 --> 00:32:38.799
<v Speaker 7>but really he's out there for floor spacing and to

647
00:32:38.880 --> 00:32:41.480
<v Speaker 7>make open threes if they present themselves. And this is

648
00:32:41.519 --> 00:32:44.599
<v Speaker 7>not a great three point shooting team, as we know,

649
00:32:45.440 --> 00:32:48.559
<v Speaker 7>and you know he is I think probably the worst

650
00:32:48.599 --> 00:32:52.400
<v Speaker 7>defender out of the eight. Yeah, who play the most,

651
00:32:53.039 --> 00:32:55.480
<v Speaker 7>but you need shooting and they don't have a ton

652
00:32:55.480 --> 00:32:57.720
<v Speaker 7>of shooting. So I bet I bet you there will

653
00:32:57.720 --> 00:32:59.680
<v Speaker 7>be a game, whether it's down the strets and the

654
00:32:59.720 --> 00:33:03.519
<v Speaker 7>regular season, or maybe you know, in the Big twelve

655
00:33:03.559 --> 00:33:05.559
<v Speaker 7>tournament or the NCAA tournament where he had the big

656
00:33:05.599 --> 00:33:08.559
<v Speaker 7>game and everyone is seeing his praises and and the

657
00:33:08.599 --> 00:33:12.599
<v Speaker 7>big game is a bunch of three pointers.

658
00:33:12.240 --> 00:33:14.519
<v Speaker 2>Well he knocks down. I wouldn't bet you on that.

659
00:33:14.559 --> 00:33:16.480
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't bet you on that, because I do agree

660
00:33:16.519 --> 00:33:18.279
<v Speaker 2>with you, in the next few games you all have

661
00:33:18.440 --> 00:33:20.160
<v Speaker 2>that game. The thing about it is, I think you

662
00:33:20.200 --> 00:33:22.400
<v Speaker 2>need more of that from him, more than just one

663
00:33:22.440 --> 00:33:24.559
<v Speaker 2>game or two. But you know what, I'm not sure

664
00:33:24.559 --> 00:33:26.599
<v Speaker 2>I owe you a beer or you owe me a beer.

665
00:33:26.920 --> 00:33:31.319
<v Speaker 2>On the lead from Bruce on Saturday, I.

666
00:33:31.359 --> 00:33:33.079
<v Speaker 7>Think we both thought he was going to use the

667
00:33:33.079 --> 00:33:37.119
<v Speaker 7>fire alarm as his lead and he did not know.

668
00:33:37.759 --> 00:33:39.559
<v Speaker 9>I don't know if we should just go hang out

669
00:33:39.559 --> 00:33:41.079
<v Speaker 9>together and wallow in our misery or.

670
00:33:43.359 --> 00:33:47.759
<v Speaker 7>Right, maybe he should buy us about that.

671
00:33:48.039 --> 00:33:50.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, this was proved that Bruce is not predictable, which,

672
00:33:50.480 --> 00:33:51.680
<v Speaker 2>of course the shocks the hell out of me.

673
00:33:52.640 --> 00:33:55.319
<v Speaker 9>So there was a couple of not predictable.

674
00:33:56.079 --> 00:33:58.920
<v Speaker 2>There's a couple of times that you know, you know,

675
00:33:59.400 --> 00:34:02.079
<v Speaker 2>early in the game, I mean, Love was not on

676
00:34:02.160 --> 00:34:05.960
<v Speaker 2>fire to say the least. I mean there are sequence

677
00:34:06.000 --> 00:34:08.679
<v Speaker 2>there where he had but three or four shots that

678
00:34:08.719 --> 00:34:12.159
<v Speaker 2>he missed, and some of them weren't weren't that good,

679
00:34:12.800 --> 00:34:17.039
<v Speaker 2>weren't that close. Do you think that he is not

680
00:34:17.159 --> 00:34:19.119
<v Speaker 2>letting the game come to him? And I don't know

681
00:34:19.159 --> 00:34:22.679
<v Speaker 2>if I like that term, but he seems to be pressing,

682
00:34:23.840 --> 00:34:26.760
<v Speaker 2>especially early in games. Do you sense that ors? What

683
00:34:26.800 --> 00:34:28.559
<v Speaker 2>does he need to do to turn around his offense?

684
00:34:30.159 --> 00:34:30.239
<v Speaker 5>Uh?

685
00:34:30.400 --> 00:34:31.079
<v Speaker 9>He's streaky.

686
00:34:32.159 --> 00:34:34.599
<v Speaker 7>He just I think we have to accept that this

687
00:34:34.639 --> 00:34:38.280
<v Speaker 7>is how he is. He's a streaky offensive player, he's

688
00:34:38.320 --> 00:34:42.360
<v Speaker 7>a volume shooter. He's gonna have some amazing games, and

689
00:34:42.400 --> 00:34:45.360
<v Speaker 7>he's going to have some games where the ball is

690
00:34:45.400 --> 00:34:49.320
<v Speaker 7>just not dropping. To me, the difference with him is

691
00:34:50.239 --> 00:34:53.599
<v Speaker 7>you can he influence the game in other ways if

692
00:34:53.599 --> 00:34:57.239
<v Speaker 7>the shot isn't dropping. I mean, I feel like, especially

693
00:34:57.280 --> 00:34:59.039
<v Speaker 7>down the stretch of last season, if he had a

694
00:34:59.079 --> 00:35:01.360
<v Speaker 7>game like this, Arizona would not have won.

695
00:35:02.239 --> 00:35:03.320
<v Speaker 9>And now they can.

696
00:35:04.239 --> 00:35:04.400
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

697
00:35:04.440 --> 00:35:07.039
<v Speaker 7>And he had six assist in that game, and people

698
00:35:07.039 --> 00:35:08.960
<v Speaker 7>were keeping a lot of praise on him for the

699
00:35:09.039 --> 00:35:11.960
<v Speaker 7>job he did defensively and he got to the line

700
00:35:12.360 --> 00:35:15.159
<v Speaker 7>they're you know, they're leading, uh the most free throws

701
00:35:15.159 --> 00:35:19.199
<v Speaker 7>attempted I made on the team. So, you know, like

702
00:35:20.320 --> 00:35:22.760
<v Speaker 7>we're just talking about with del Loriso. I don't know

703
00:35:22.800 --> 00:35:26.880
<v Speaker 7>if Delorso has other elements to his game besides the

704
00:35:26.920 --> 00:35:27.639
<v Speaker 7>outside shooting.

705
00:35:27.679 --> 00:35:30.280
<v Speaker 9>I think Caleb does, and.

706
00:35:30.280 --> 00:35:34.599
<v Speaker 7>The more he kind of emphasizes those, the more impactful

707
00:35:34.639 --> 00:35:36.760
<v Speaker 7>he can be, regardless of whether his shock goes in.

708
00:35:37.119 --> 00:35:39.360
<v Speaker 9>Now, if he gets on a hot streak at the right.

709
00:35:39.199 --> 00:35:42.599
<v Speaker 7>Time, that could be the catalyst that you know, sends Arizona,

710
00:35:42.880 --> 00:35:43.840
<v Speaker 7>you know, deep into March.

711
00:35:44.199 --> 00:35:47.760
<v Speaker 2>So so we got to call less hour by one

712
00:35:47.760 --> 00:35:49.320
<v Speaker 2>of our regular callers, and I'll throw this at you,

713
00:35:49.360 --> 00:35:51.119
<v Speaker 2>and I know what my answer. My answer was easy

714
00:35:51.119 --> 00:35:54.639
<v Speaker 2>to him. Uh so it's a Twitter poll question created

715
00:35:54.639 --> 00:35:57.719
<v Speaker 2>by him just on the radio. What's more impactful the

716
00:35:57.719 --> 00:36:03.239
<v Speaker 2>the Laura, the Fafida replaces Laura or Henry replaces Crevas?

717
00:36:06.360 --> 00:36:09.519
<v Speaker 7>Oh well, I guess you could say that it sort

718
00:36:09.519 --> 00:36:11.599
<v Speaker 7>of remains to be seen how the rest of the

719
00:36:11.679 --> 00:36:16.679
<v Speaker 7>season plays out, right, because we have the proof of

720
00:36:16.679 --> 00:36:20.119
<v Speaker 7>what Fafita was able to do in twenty twenty three, like,

721
00:36:20.360 --> 00:36:22.960
<v Speaker 7>you know, leading them to a ten and three season

722
00:36:23.679 --> 00:36:26.920
<v Speaker 7>victory in a bowl game, all of that stuff, things

723
00:36:26.920 --> 00:36:30.280
<v Speaker 7>that don't happen in for Arizona football very often. But

724
00:36:30.400 --> 00:36:35.000
<v Speaker 7>I love the comps A great call. I you know,

725
00:36:35.840 --> 00:36:37.599
<v Speaker 7>I don't think we all We also didn't have as

726
00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:42.039
<v Speaker 7>much of a read on Crevis as we did to Laura.

727
00:36:42.159 --> 00:36:46.559
<v Speaker 7>Like Laura played off full season plus for Arizona, Creavias

728
00:36:46.760 --> 00:36:49.800
<v Speaker 7>was never really like in a prominent role here and

729
00:36:49.920 --> 00:36:51.920
<v Speaker 7>was just about to have that, so we don't really

730
00:36:51.960 --> 00:36:54.679
<v Speaker 7>know how that would have turned out. He definitely doesn't

731
00:36:54.679 --> 00:36:56.800
<v Speaker 7>seem like the same type of player as Henry though

732
00:36:57.400 --> 00:36:59.800
<v Speaker 7>right more of a traditional like low post center.

733
00:37:00.079 --> 00:37:01.880
<v Speaker 9>Don't think he's as mobile defensively.

734
00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:05.119
<v Speaker 7>I think it's been one of those Wally Hit type

735
00:37:05.159 --> 00:37:08.679
<v Speaker 7>situations for them. But yeah, great question, and I think

736
00:37:08.760 --> 00:37:10.320
<v Speaker 7>we'll have a better answer in a month or two.

737
00:37:10.719 --> 00:37:13.840
<v Speaker 2>So let me ask you. Okay, so two months ago

738
00:37:14.159 --> 00:37:16.760
<v Speaker 2>that would get us where to maybe late December, early

739
00:37:16.960 --> 00:37:21.159
<v Speaker 2>January or you know, mid mid you know, six seven

740
00:37:21.159 --> 00:37:24.719
<v Speaker 2>weeks ago, what did you think if Arizona gets this

741
00:37:24.920 --> 00:37:27.400
<v Speaker 2>far it would be a good thing in the tournament

742
00:37:27.519 --> 00:37:29.679
<v Speaker 2>in the n C Double short What it matters now

743
00:37:30.039 --> 00:37:32.800
<v Speaker 2>now as you look at it, what's the what's the difference?

744
00:37:32.840 --> 00:37:33.920
<v Speaker 2>How further will they go?

745
00:37:34.559 --> 00:37:38.159
<v Speaker 7>Like, Yeah, I feel like when they were four and

746
00:37:38.239 --> 00:37:40.440
<v Speaker 7>five and kind of around five hundred that we were

747
00:37:40.440 --> 00:37:42.280
<v Speaker 7>talking about whether they would make the.

748
00:37:42.280 --> 00:37:47.159
<v Speaker 9>Tournament at all, and now I think anything.

749
00:37:46.920 --> 00:37:49.400
<v Speaker 7>Short of the Sweet sixteen would probably be deemed a

750
00:37:49.480 --> 00:37:54.119
<v Speaker 7>pretty big disappointment. You know, expectations change, they go up

751
00:37:54.119 --> 00:37:58.960
<v Speaker 7>and down. They can change within a season, and they

752
00:37:58.960 --> 00:37:59.760
<v Speaker 7>most definitely have.

753
00:38:00.480 --> 00:38:01.320
<v Speaker 9>I was one of.

754
00:38:01.280 --> 00:38:05.039
<v Speaker 7>Those people who wasn't panicking, felt like they would figure

755
00:38:05.079 --> 00:38:06.320
<v Speaker 7>it out to some degree.

756
00:38:07.000 --> 00:38:08.800
<v Speaker 9>But I also thought that it.

757
00:38:08.719 --> 00:38:11.920
<v Speaker 7>Was, you know, maybe the least talented team that Tommy

758
00:38:11.920 --> 00:38:14.639
<v Speaker 7>Wood had, but they have a different talent the one

759
00:38:14.840 --> 00:38:17.199
<v Speaker 7>we talked about at the top of the interview. They

760
00:38:17.239 --> 00:38:20.880
<v Speaker 7>have this toughness factor that maybe some other some other

761
00:38:21.280 --> 00:38:22.239
<v Speaker 7>of these teams didn't have.

762
00:38:22.519 --> 00:38:24.360
<v Speaker 2>No, Yeah, I think you're exactly right, because it's not

763
00:38:24.440 --> 00:38:27.159
<v Speaker 2>as talented as he said the last three years, but

764
00:38:27.239 --> 00:38:30.119
<v Speaker 2>they did find something within themselves to be who they

765
00:38:30.159 --> 00:38:33.079
<v Speaker 2>are now. Uh, and it is you. You're exactly You're

766
00:38:33.079 --> 00:38:33.719
<v Speaker 2>exactly right.

767
00:38:34.519 --> 00:38:37.920
<v Speaker 7>I I keep I keep I was gonna say, I

768
00:38:37.960 --> 00:38:40.440
<v Speaker 7>keep expecting them to lose, like have a trap game,

769
00:38:40.480 --> 00:38:43.199
<v Speaker 7>a letdown game, or something. It might very well be

770
00:38:43.920 --> 00:38:47.119
<v Speaker 7>tomorrow night against Kansas State. I mean it's logical. But

771
00:38:47.199 --> 00:38:49.519
<v Speaker 7>I thought the same thing about b YU and.

772
00:38:49.480 --> 00:38:50.320
<v Speaker 9>They beat them.

773
00:38:50.400 --> 00:38:53.280
<v Speaker 7>So that's that's the mental toughness aspect that this team

774
00:38:53.320 --> 00:38:54.360
<v Speaker 7>also seems to have.

775
00:38:55.079 --> 00:38:58.360
<v Speaker 9>That you need when times get tough. Pason.

776
00:38:58.679 --> 00:39:02.440
<v Speaker 2>With that said, uh, uh and your potential trap game,

777
00:39:02.719 --> 00:39:05.639
<v Speaker 2>and I totally believe in that thing. What's gonna happen tomorrow?

778
00:39:07.400 --> 00:39:09.559
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, I mean I could see them losing. It wouldn't

779
00:39:09.599 --> 00:39:13.320
<v Speaker 7>It wouldn't shock me. But I don't think if they

780
00:39:13.360 --> 00:39:14.199
<v Speaker 7>do lose.

781
00:39:14.000 --> 00:39:15.760
<v Speaker 9>That it'll be because they.

782
00:39:15.920 --> 00:39:19.960
<v Speaker 7>Got out rebounded or were bad defensively and give up

783
00:39:19.960 --> 00:39:22.320
<v Speaker 7>a bunch of wide open layups. You know, it might

784
00:39:22.360 --> 00:39:25.039
<v Speaker 7>just be that they're their offense is off you know,

785
00:39:25.880 --> 00:39:29.639
<v Speaker 7>uh defense. What I love about kind of a defense

786
00:39:29.679 --> 00:39:33.880
<v Speaker 7>first team is that that should be a constant, like

787
00:39:33.920 --> 00:39:36.800
<v Speaker 7>there's no excuse, no reason that you shouldn't be able

788
00:39:36.800 --> 00:39:40.360
<v Speaker 7>to to play good, hard defense and rebound well all

789
00:39:40.440 --> 00:39:44.679
<v Speaker 7>the time because that's mostly efforts, right whereas you know,

790
00:39:44.760 --> 00:39:46.320
<v Speaker 7>sometimes the shot is just not going to fall. That

791
00:39:46.440 --> 00:39:49.199
<v Speaker 7>the nature of basketball, you know, hit or miss league

792
00:39:49.599 --> 00:39:54.480
<v Speaker 7>as they say about the NBA, And so I like

793
00:39:54.519 --> 00:39:57.239
<v Speaker 7>that aspect of the team. If they do lose, I

794
00:39:57.559 --> 00:40:00.159
<v Speaker 7>don't think it'll be because their defense faltered or the

795
00:40:00.280 --> 00:40:03.159
<v Speaker 7>rebounding faltered. Eye, but I could see them losing, like

796
00:40:03.440 --> 00:40:05.599
<v Speaker 7>they're not going to go nineteen and one in the

797
00:40:05.599 --> 00:40:08.880
<v Speaker 7>Big twelve in their first year. But then again, I

798
00:40:08.960 --> 00:40:10.719
<v Speaker 7>keep saying that and they keep winning, so we kind

799
00:40:10.719 --> 00:40:13.280
<v Speaker 7>of keep moving that bar a little bit higher and

800
00:40:13.360 --> 00:40:15.480
<v Speaker 7>higher of you know, what their final record is going

801
00:40:15.519 --> 00:40:17.000
<v Speaker 7>to be when the twenty games are up.

802
00:40:17.039 --> 00:40:24.199
<v Speaker 2>Well, thanks, thanks for the non committal answer, Specialty dismissing

803
00:40:24.239 --> 00:40:28.599
<v Speaker 2>the just not trap game or or or thinking that

804
00:40:28.639 --> 00:40:30.320
<v Speaker 2>they're going to have a trap game and then them

805
00:40:30.440 --> 00:40:33.480
<v Speaker 2>not because of what you're saying about the mental aspect

806
00:40:33.519 --> 00:40:35.920
<v Speaker 2>of it. Does that help us when our trap game

807
00:40:36.039 --> 00:40:37.639
<v Speaker 2>is a fifteen verses of two.

808
00:40:39.840 --> 00:40:41.400
<v Speaker 9>Oh man, that's a great question.

809
00:40:42.599 --> 00:40:50.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I don't see river at me. It's because that's

810
00:40:50.519 --> 00:40:51.760
<v Speaker 2>why I don't come back every month.

811
00:40:51.800 --> 00:40:54.960
<v Speaker 9>There should Yeah, there should never be a trap game.

812
00:40:54.840 --> 00:40:58.400
<v Speaker 7>In the table, right, you should be completely locked in.

813
00:40:58.480 --> 00:41:01.039
<v Speaker 9>There should be no such thing. You should be taking

814
00:41:01.079 --> 00:41:01.880
<v Speaker 9>every game seriously.

815
00:41:02.000 --> 00:41:05.039
<v Speaker 7>And I say that this team has no excuses for

816
00:41:05.159 --> 00:41:08.719
<v Speaker 7>not taking an opponent seriously considering how many times they've

817
00:41:08.719 --> 00:41:12.159
<v Speaker 7>been upset. They you know, as a two or three

818
00:41:12.199 --> 00:41:14.639
<v Speaker 7>seed versus a fourteen or fifteen or whatever.

819
00:41:14.800 --> 00:41:18.920
<v Speaker 9>So you're right, they should be very much prepared for anything.

820
00:41:18.920 --> 00:41:21.480
<v Speaker 7>And like I said, I think defense and rebounding can

821
00:41:21.519 --> 00:41:24.960
<v Speaker 7>be constant that can help you to win games when

822
00:41:25.280 --> 00:41:27.400
<v Speaker 7>the ball is not going through the hoop in the

823
00:41:27.400 --> 00:41:28.639
<v Speaker 7>way that it usually does.

824
00:41:28.719 --> 00:41:32.280
<v Speaker 2>I'll leave you with this, Michael, So since nineteen eighty five,

825
00:41:32.639 --> 00:41:35.840
<v Speaker 2>I think you just created a logjam a few crashes

826
00:41:35.880 --> 00:41:39.519
<v Speaker 2>by saying that, because that's how it's been the tournament.

827
00:41:40.199 --> 00:41:42.440
<v Speaker 2>You know, they're playing against lower seeds and they get

828
00:41:42.440 --> 00:41:45.360
<v Speaker 2>beat and for unexplainable reasons, yes.

829
00:41:47.880 --> 00:41:51.800
<v Speaker 9>They have. It's happened. I mean, you know, it's happened.

830
00:41:51.840 --> 00:41:55.280
<v Speaker 7>Too often, right, You don't want to be the butt

831
00:41:55.320 --> 00:41:59.440
<v Speaker 7>of that joke, right, So that's what that's what is

832
00:41:59.559 --> 00:42:03.679
<v Speaker 7>maybe maybe different about this team. It's still speculation at

833
00:42:03.679 --> 00:42:06.960
<v Speaker 7>this point, but it's something to kind of hang your

834
00:42:07.000 --> 00:42:10.559
<v Speaker 7>hat on that, you know, maybe this maybe this time,

835
00:42:10.559 --> 00:42:13.000
<v Speaker 7>it will be a little different when it comes tomorrow.

836
00:42:13.039 --> 00:42:14.920
<v Speaker 7>So of course you have to have luck, you got

837
00:42:14.960 --> 00:42:17.519
<v Speaker 7>to have health, you have all those things. But I

838
00:42:17.880 --> 00:42:18.840
<v Speaker 7>like what I've seen so far.

839
00:42:19.280 --> 00:42:21.519
<v Speaker 2>Okay, and with that, we'll leave you with the halftime

840
00:42:21.599 --> 00:42:25.000
<v Speaker 2>show of they're not like us. Yeah, they're not like us.

841
00:42:25.000 --> 00:42:28.000
<v Speaker 2>They're not like us. I like, thanks, Michael, we'll talk

842
00:42:28.039 --> 00:42:31.840
<v Speaker 2>to you again. Thanks, I thank that. Yeah. Sure, maybe

843
00:42:31.840 --> 00:42:34.199
<v Speaker 2>this team is different than the book. Maybe, But the

844
00:42:34.239 --> 00:42:37.199
<v Speaker 2>thing is the maybe is maybe not Yeah right, yeah,

845
00:42:37.239 --> 00:42:40.119
<v Speaker 2>I mean you never know, and you won't know, you know,

846
00:42:40.159 --> 00:42:41.800
<v Speaker 2>you don't know until you know. We got to go.

847

928
00:46:57.119 --> 00:46:59.320
<v Speaker 2>So you know, I was gonna say something. I heard

929
00:46:59.320 --> 00:47:02.800
<v Speaker 2>that Texas coach was yapping a little bit at Caleb,

930
00:47:03.719 --> 00:47:05.840
<v Speaker 2>you know, all in his ear. When did you hear this?

931
00:47:07.000 --> 00:47:09.079
<v Speaker 3>I saw a little bit of it. It's very little.

932
00:47:09.159 --> 00:47:10.800
<v Speaker 3>I didn't I don't know what they said. I just

933
00:47:11.239 --> 00:47:13.320
<v Speaker 3>I know they were when you were changing.

934
00:47:13.199 --> 00:47:17.039
<v Speaker 2>What you saw. Yes, yes, I heard the official kind

935
00:47:17.079 --> 00:47:20.639
<v Speaker 2>of called in. We got a call. Okay, oh you're

936
00:47:20.639 --> 00:47:22.960
<v Speaker 2>on the air and one on the ball. Who's this is?

937
00:47:23.039 --> 00:47:23.360
<v Speaker 5>Brian?

938
00:47:23.360 --> 00:47:24.599
<v Speaker 2>How's it going?

939
00:47:27.159 --> 00:47:30.199
<v Speaker 5>After watching that game, I think we should probably be

940
00:47:30.280 --> 00:47:32.639
<v Speaker 5>talking about giving Tommy Lloyd a lot more credit than

941
00:47:32.639 --> 00:47:33.480
<v Speaker 5>we've been giving him.

942
00:47:33.679 --> 00:47:38.599
<v Speaker 2>Yes, do you know, Brian? Oh?

943
00:47:38.639 --> 00:47:40.639
<v Speaker 5>Okay, the people, a lot of the people who.

944
00:47:40.519 --> 00:47:42.599
<v Speaker 2>Call yeah yeah, no, well a lot of people who

945
00:47:42.639 --> 00:47:45.559
<v Speaker 2>were on the internet ragging him in December and January.

946
00:47:45.639 --> 00:47:47.519
<v Speaker 5>Yes, oh, now they love him.

947
00:47:47.679 --> 00:47:50.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know you know how they love him. They

948
00:47:50.440 --> 00:47:51.239
<v Speaker 2>don't say anything.

949
00:47:51.480 --> 00:47:55.440
<v Speaker 5>Yes, all right, right, but you know also too, you know,

950
00:47:55.519 --> 00:47:58.599
<v Speaker 5>I mean after the big injury, you know, and to

951
00:47:58.639 --> 00:48:02.800
<v Speaker 5>basically revamp your whole team, he's done an amazing job.

952
00:48:03.639 --> 00:48:07.960
<v Speaker 5>Oh yeah, yeah, you know. And my my biggest critician

953
00:48:08.000 --> 00:48:09.639
<v Speaker 5>about the game the other night was, you know, I

954
00:48:09.639 --> 00:48:12.679
<v Speaker 5>thought they played great games. kJ Lewis. I mean, he's

955
00:48:12.880 --> 00:48:16.159
<v Speaker 5>terrific athlete. Can't take that away from him, but boy,

956
00:48:16.239 --> 00:48:19.360
<v Speaker 5>does he make some terrible decisions offensively? Well, you know what,

957
00:48:19.519 --> 00:48:21.760
<v Speaker 5>this guy should this guy should never be able to

958
00:48:21.760 --> 00:48:22.320
<v Speaker 5>pass the ball.

959
00:48:22.519 --> 00:48:25.519
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, something that we failed as a journalist

960
00:48:25.559 --> 00:48:28.280
<v Speaker 2>to ask was what's up with that hand? Because because

961
00:48:28.559 --> 00:48:31.320
<v Speaker 2>we saw videos of him being niced blah blah blah,

962
00:48:31.400 --> 00:48:33.400
<v Speaker 2>and then it looked like the hen was affecting him. Right,

963
00:48:33.920 --> 00:48:36.079
<v Speaker 2>he couldn't get to the basket, he couldn't pass the ball,

964
00:48:36.360 --> 00:48:38.079
<v Speaker 2>to your point, Brian, and then all of a sudden

965
00:48:38.159 --> 00:48:39.760
<v Speaker 2>he was hitting jumpers and doing these.

966
00:48:39.559 --> 00:48:43.320
<v Speaker 5>Things right, you know. And and it's not just this

967
00:48:43.440 --> 00:48:46.480
<v Speaker 5>last game. There's been a lot of games where you know,

968
00:48:46.679 --> 00:48:48.519
<v Speaker 5>it's just like he just didn't think when he passes

969
00:48:48.559 --> 00:48:51.320
<v Speaker 5>the ball. I mean there was a pass toward kind

970
00:48:51.320 --> 00:48:53.559
<v Speaker 5>of toward the end of the game that he basically

971
00:48:53.599 --> 00:48:56.320
<v Speaker 5>handed the ball to the guy and the guy went

972
00:48:56.360 --> 00:49:00.599
<v Speaker 5>in for a layup. But you know, but he plays

973
00:49:00.679 --> 00:49:04.480
<v Speaker 5>great defense, and you can't you can't can't criticize his

974
00:49:04.519 --> 00:49:07.159
<v Speaker 5>commitment to play. The guy gives you one hundred percent

975
00:49:07.519 --> 00:49:09.760
<v Speaker 5>all the time. He's busting his butt out there.

976
00:49:10.000 --> 00:49:12.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there's no doubt about that, Brian. I got to

977
00:49:12.239 --> 00:49:14.360
<v Speaker 2>ask you the do you think that's a function of

978
00:49:14.400 --> 00:49:18.159
<v Speaker 2>the fact that he Tommy Lloyd wants him to go fast,

979
00:49:18.800 --> 00:49:21.480
<v Speaker 2>because he definitely Tommy Lloyd definitely says, I mean you

980
00:49:21.480 --> 00:49:24.559
<v Speaker 2>can tell him this, go go go fast, fast fast.

981
00:49:24.599 --> 00:49:26.400
<v Speaker 2>So that's how he starts as a difference, which is

982
00:49:26.440 --> 00:49:29.039
<v Speaker 2>a change from what we had before, where was stop

983
00:49:29.079 --> 00:49:31.199
<v Speaker 2>stop stop, let's not have fun. Right.

984
00:49:31.760 --> 00:49:34.360
<v Speaker 5>But one thing to I know about Taylor Love, and

985
00:49:34.480 --> 00:49:36.639
<v Speaker 5>you know he did not shoot well the other night.

986
00:49:36.719 --> 00:49:38.960
<v Speaker 5>We know that, but boy, I tell you one thing

987
00:49:39.199 --> 00:49:42.480
<v Speaker 5>he made up for it on his defense. One thing

988
00:49:43.199 --> 00:49:45.960
<v Speaker 5>that's one thing he's done this year has quite an

989
00:49:45.960 --> 00:49:50.360
<v Speaker 5>improvement is his defense, you know, and he's taking upon

990
00:49:50.440 --> 00:49:53.719
<v Speaker 5>himself to take their number one player and basically trying

991
00:49:53.719 --> 00:49:55.400
<v Speaker 5>to shut him down. It's done, and it's done a

992
00:49:55.480 --> 00:49:57.320
<v Speaker 5>very good job most most of the time this year.

993
00:49:57.480 --> 00:50:01.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're only your criticism was mentioned. My only criticism.

994
00:50:01.239 --> 00:50:03.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm into. The whole game was up two and a half,

995
00:50:03.599 --> 00:50:05.960
<v Speaker 2>two minutes whatever, it was, up by eight ish. They

996
00:50:06.000 --> 00:50:09.599
<v Speaker 2>get the rebound, rebound, the second rebound and Caleb Love

997
00:50:09.639 --> 00:50:12.440
<v Speaker 2>takes as open three with about five seconds out into

998
00:50:12.440 --> 00:50:14.519
<v Speaker 2>the You know, you get that.

999
00:50:15.039 --> 00:50:17.599
<v Speaker 5>But that's one thing they done. If you watch the

1000
00:50:17.679 --> 00:50:19.320
<v Speaker 5>U C. L a game they did the same thing.

1001
00:50:19.880 --> 00:50:21.679
<v Speaker 5>You know, Baso, I went down the court and tried

1002
00:50:21.679 --> 00:50:24.440
<v Speaker 5>a three three pointer with like twenty eight seconds left

1003
00:50:24.440 --> 00:50:26.159
<v Speaker 5>to go on the shot clock and wait a minute,

1004
00:50:26.239 --> 00:50:29.079
<v Speaker 5>Yeah yeah, let's you know, let's use the clock to wordvantage.

1005
00:50:29.079 --> 00:50:30.760
<v Speaker 5>That's you know, that's one of that's like having an

1006
00:50:30.760 --> 00:50:31.760
<v Speaker 5>extra player out there.

1007
00:50:31.840 --> 00:50:34.079
<v Speaker 2>Right. Well, they survived that, you know, in a good way.

1008
00:50:34.320 --> 00:50:36.280
<v Speaker 2>It was just some little things. And that's not a

1009
00:50:36.320 --> 00:50:37.960
<v Speaker 2>credits critique, but it's not a big one.

1010
00:50:38.000 --> 00:50:39.920
<v Speaker 5>Big but you know, but those little things come back

1011
00:50:39.960 --> 00:50:41.119
<v Speaker 5>and bite you, right.

1012
00:50:41.159 --> 00:50:42.440
<v Speaker 2>You know, guess what you might be calling me in

1013
00:50:42.480 --> 00:50:46.920
<v Speaker 2>mid March saying, Steve, remember that time we talked and yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

1014
00:50:48.360 --> 00:50:50.800
<v Speaker 2>Going back to your comment about Lloyd being a coach

1015
00:50:51.519 --> 00:50:54.599
<v Speaker 2>his you got to believe that when at four and

1016
00:50:54.719 --> 00:50:57.480
<v Speaker 2>five he did an assessment of what this team needed,

1017
00:50:57.800 --> 00:50:59.760
<v Speaker 2>and I think that he sat down and said, Okay,

1018
00:51:00.199 --> 00:51:01.960
<v Speaker 2>these are the things that they needed, and one of

1019
00:51:02.000 --> 00:51:05.320
<v Speaker 2>them was kill love playing tenacious T. And I think

1020
00:51:05.320 --> 00:51:08.679
<v Speaker 2>that that you know, as you point out, that has

1021
00:51:08.719 --> 00:51:11.800
<v Speaker 2>been a big difference, right you know, their you.

1022
00:51:11.760 --> 00:51:13.880
<v Speaker 5>Know, their their defense has gotten much better, and you

1023
00:51:13.960 --> 00:51:17.599
<v Speaker 5>know this is and also trying to adjust from the

1024
00:51:17.639 --> 00:51:19.639
<v Speaker 5>Pac Twelve to the Big twelve, and the type of

1025
00:51:19.679 --> 00:51:22.360
<v Speaker 5>basketball played in the in the Pac twelve compared to

1026
00:51:22.360 --> 00:51:25.239
<v Speaker 5>the Big twelve is night and day. And it took

1027
00:51:25.280 --> 00:51:27.719
<v Speaker 5>him a while to figure this out. I think, you know,

1028
00:51:27.800 --> 00:51:31.440
<v Speaker 5>they you know, one thing, scheduling these teams that we

1029
00:51:31.519 --> 00:51:34.119
<v Speaker 5>did early in the season, even though we lost a

1030
00:51:34.119 --> 00:51:38.079
<v Speaker 5>lot of those games, for most of them, we basically

1031
00:51:38.280 --> 00:51:41.800
<v Speaker 5>made us a better team because we understood, we understood

1032
00:51:41.800 --> 00:51:44.159
<v Speaker 5>we got to play some really physical basketball, no question.

1033
00:51:44.239 --> 00:51:46.960
<v Speaker 2>And that's why you played these games. Lout believes in that.

1034
00:51:47.360 --> 00:51:50.000
<v Speaker 2>Sean not so much because he didn't play many games

1035
00:51:50.039 --> 00:51:51.800
<v Speaker 2>like that. But at least you find out who you

1036
00:51:51.880 --> 00:51:53.920
<v Speaker 2>who you are, what you need and here we are,

1037
00:51:55.519 --> 00:51:56.079
<v Speaker 2>all right.

1038
00:51:55.920 --> 00:51:58.400
<v Speaker 5>And it's you know, I mean, if anybody would have
