48
00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:57.359
<v Speaker 5>seven thirty four of the game. The last time Arizona

49
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:01.439
<v Speaker 5>faced Oklahoma, State saw Lee Stottamayer made the game when

50

00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:11.000
<v Speaker 4>it's yeah.

55
00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:13.360
<v Speaker 2>Selim Salem one of the cranky guys, one of my

56
00:02:13.400 --> 00:02:18.280
<v Speaker 2>guy friends who had a pretty good career, cranky career,

57
00:02:18.479 --> 00:02:23.599
<v Speaker 2>best shooter ever, you've uh, I'll I'll argue with Steve Kerr,

58
00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:28.680
<v Speaker 2>but maybe second, okay, and I would take Curb first,

59
00:02:28.759 --> 00:02:32.159
<v Speaker 2>I think, just because but but he was good and

60
00:02:32.319 --> 00:02:34.960
<v Speaker 2>loot that year. Argued, what what do you argue all

61
00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:37.120
<v Speaker 2>that year? I don't know that he was better than

62
00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:41.479
<v Speaker 2>JJ Redick. Oh that's right, you're right, yeah, but Selim

63
00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:44.479
<v Speaker 2>being the better shooter that JJ Reddick just J J

64
00:02:44.639 --> 00:02:48.120
<v Speaker 2>Rider had a Reddick had a longer NBA career. Okay,

65
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:50.759
<v Speaker 2>this is that was well, that was the year of

66
00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:52.199
<v Speaker 2>the Illinois year that you were talking about.

67
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:54.639
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that was the most disappointed less I think I've seen.

68
00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:57.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, this news came out a few days ago. Arizona's

69
00:02:58.039 --> 00:03:03.159
<v Speaker 5>corner cornerback Marcus Groves Killerbrew withdraws from transfer portal he

70
00:03:03.879 --> 00:03:06.919
<v Speaker 5>committed to Nebraska but never fully signed.

71
00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:09.280
<v Speaker 2>Didn't didn't want to go there for the cold weather

72
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:12.319
<v Speaker 2>that we're experiencing now, this is not is this cold too?

73
00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:14.439
<v Speaker 3>It's cold, but it's not cold. Yeah.

74
00:03:14.439 --> 00:03:15.919
<v Speaker 4>I mean it's chili, but it's not cold. I mean,

75
00:03:16.120 --> 00:03:18.439
<v Speaker 4>if you've been to the Midwest in the winter time,

76
00:03:18.520 --> 00:03:19.439
<v Speaker 4>that's cold.

77
00:03:19.240 --> 00:03:21.520
<v Speaker 3>You played, didn't Kansas? What did you play? Didn't you play?

78
00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:22.280
<v Speaker 6>No?

79
00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:24.639
<v Speaker 4>I mean I played in some cold places, like I

80
00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:26.840
<v Speaker 4>remember being in Cleveland and starting a game when it

81
00:03:26.840 --> 00:03:29.000
<v Speaker 4>was snowing, and I was in Denver for college. But

82
00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:32.000
<v Speaker 4>I mean that Midwest cold is a different brutal college. Yeah,

83
00:03:32.039 --> 00:03:32.520
<v Speaker 4>so we weren't.

84
00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:35.879
<v Speaker 3>I went on some baseball stuff to recruit in Kansas. Yeah.

85
00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:38.479
<v Speaker 2>It was the worst snow drifts I've ever seen. Said,

86
00:03:39.159 --> 00:03:41.400
<v Speaker 2>how would anybody want them? Why would anyway?

87
00:03:41.400 --> 00:03:44.080
<v Speaker 4>Okay, here's here's a conversation that's been had multiple times

88
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:46.280
<v Speaker 4>with my dad and I is that you've got you've

89
00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:47.919

00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:52.599
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, okay, why are you college season no baseball?

91
00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:53.120
<v Speaker 6>Right?

92
00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:58.159
<v Speaker 4>Why why are you having let's say Minnesota is playing Miami.

93
00:03:58.479 --> 00:04:01.599
<v Speaker 4>Why are they playing the games in Minneso? Why aren't

94
00:04:01.639 --> 00:04:04.599
<v Speaker 4>they playing in Miami. How do we not figure that out? Sorry,

95
00:04:04.680 --> 00:04:07.879
<v Speaker 4>keep going, because you're not there, you would have figured

96
00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:08.120
<v Speaker 4>it out.

97
00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:08.639
<v Speaker 3>How I know?

98
00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:11.039
<v Speaker 4>I'm not smart. I had my headphones on last time,

99
00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:12.879
<v Speaker 4>the wrong way. Don't don't put me in that kind

100
00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:15.479
<v Speaker 4>of conversation. I think I'm a single man. They were

101
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:16.160
<v Speaker 4>both ways.

102
00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:20.199
<v Speaker 5>The Chiefs and the Bills will face off in the

103
00:04:20.199 --> 00:04:21.240
<v Speaker 5>AFC Championship.

104
00:04:21.560 --> 00:04:24.279
<v Speaker 3>This is what's spread. Did you see it's a pick them?

105
00:04:24.279 --> 00:04:25.959
<v Speaker 3>I think Chiefs might as well. Oh, I saw I

106
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:28.680
<v Speaker 3>saw that. I think I did see that. Yeah, it's

107
00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:29.560
<v Speaker 3>gonna be a great game.

108
00:04:29.759 --> 00:04:31.519
<v Speaker 4>It's gonna be a great game against two teams that

109
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:32.759
<v Speaker 4>figure out a way to win.

110
00:04:32.959 --> 00:04:35.160
<v Speaker 3>And I just my money's always so I had.

111
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:38.920
<v Speaker 2>My money on Baltimore Baltimore just because I figured that

112
00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:41.279
<v Speaker 2>it was time, right whatever, and they should have at

113
00:04:41.319 --> 00:04:42.360
<v Speaker 2>least gone to overtime.

114
00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:44.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I agree with you, But but.

115
00:04:44.360 --> 00:04:46.439
<v Speaker 2>The Bills are damn good and Kansas City has been

116
00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:50.319
<v Speaker 2>like riding that edge. Riding that edge, yeah I do.

117
00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:52.079
<v Speaker 4>I watched them, and I question if they're even a

118
00:04:52.120 --> 00:04:54.120
<v Speaker 4>good football team sometimes, but they find a way to

119
00:04:54.160 --> 00:04:55.639
<v Speaker 4>win and that makes them a great team.

120
00:04:55.759 --> 00:04:57.519
<v Speaker 2>Well, some people would say they find a way to

121
00:04:57.560 --> 00:04:58.920
<v Speaker 2>win with the guys in the stripes.

122
00:04:59.079 --> 00:04:59.879
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's very good.

123
00:05:00.040 --> 00:05:02.879
<v Speaker 2>I don't see that, but I'm not a I'm not

124
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:03.839
<v Speaker 2>a conspiracy guy.

125
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:08.879
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Jaden Daniels passes Andrew Luck for the most offensive

126
00:05:08.959 --> 00:05:12.240
<v Speaker 5>yards by a rookie including playoffs in NFL history during

127
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:16.279
<v Speaker 5>Saturdays win over the lines, setting up an FC championship

128
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:17.040
<v Speaker 5>versus the Eagles.

129
00:05:17.120 --> 00:05:20.240
<v Speaker 4>You talked about that with Detroit. Yeah, I mean, just

130
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:24.319
<v Speaker 4>I listen. Personally, I've turned into Detroit fan. Not that

131
00:05:24.399 --> 00:05:26.720
<v Speaker 4>I am a Detroit fan, but I love that team

132
00:05:26.759 --> 00:05:29.360
<v Speaker 4>and I think Campbell's a phenomenal coach. We were talking

133
00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:30.959
<v Speaker 4>about it a little bit earlier with Notre Dame. Same

134
00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:33.519
<v Speaker 4>kind of aspect that you root for. If my team's

135
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:34.959
<v Speaker 4>not even on room for that team, I did not

136
00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:37.480
<v Speaker 4>see them getting essentially blown out of the water that

137
00:05:37.480 --> 00:05:39.360
<v Speaker 4>they way they did. And Washington's a good team, but

138
00:05:39.399 --> 00:05:42.319
<v Speaker 4>they their last three games of the season, they look terrible.

139
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:47.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Daniels has been fantastic. If he's done something's unbelievable.

140
00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:49.839
<v Speaker 2>But you know, all to the Detroit game and they

141
00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:51.959
<v Speaker 2>had and they didn't have the lead, and Washington had

142
00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:53.839
<v Speaker 2>the lead, and I'm thinking, Okay, they're just getting them.

143
00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:55.600
<v Speaker 2>They're playing with their food, right, they're playing with their food.

144
00:05:55.600 --> 00:05:58.279
<v Speaker 2>They'll come back and they'll scored two touchdowns, no problem.

145
00:05:58.439 --> 00:06:02.000
<v Speaker 2>And then they started playing stupidly, the interceptions and the fumbles.

146
00:06:02.079 --> 00:06:03.879
<v Speaker 3>I'm thinking they ain't gonna come back.

147
00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:06.120
<v Speaker 2>No, that was their worst game of the year. I thought, yeah,

148
00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:08.519
<v Speaker 2>no question, no question, And they're good. I don't know

149
00:06:08.560 --> 00:06:10.759
<v Speaker 2>if they're gonna be good anymore. Everyone's jumping ship to

150
00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:14.560
<v Speaker 2>other jobs. I think didn't their defensive or offensive coordinator

151
00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:15.639
<v Speaker 2>took the job at Chicago.

152
00:06:15.879 --> 00:06:18.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, but I think when you have Campbell the lead position,

153
00:06:18.720 --> 00:06:20.720
<v Speaker 4>I think he creates that culture and people fall in.

154
00:06:21.480 --> 00:06:23.759
<v Speaker 3>So you're saying they'll find another OC and yeah.

155
00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:24.839
<v Speaker 4>I mean I think you had the same thing in

156
00:06:24.879 --> 00:06:27.079
<v Speaker 4>Kansas City. People were questing that Kansas City wouldn't been

157
00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:30.120
<v Speaker 4>Jimi left. Yeah, yeah, that's true.

158
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:38.959
<v Speaker 5>Ten time Australian Open Championship champion Novak Djokovic defeats Carlos

159
00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:44.560
<v Speaker 5>Alkraz in the Australian Open quarterfinals. As Djokovic was an underdog, was.

160
00:06:44.519 --> 00:06:47.680
<v Speaker 3>He well, so that's almost over right by the end

161
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:48.079
<v Speaker 3>of this week.

162
00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:51.399
<v Speaker 7>I don't really follow to Yeah, he's in the Semis now, okay,

163
00:06:53.959 --> 00:06:58.120
<v Speaker 7>anything else, Nope, just Ben Johnson to the command of

164
00:06:58.240 --> 00:07:00.920
<v Speaker 7>the Bears, which was kind of expected.

165
00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:03.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, there's gonna be up to Dallas. Who's Dallas gonna get?

166
00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:04.920
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

167
00:07:05.040 --> 00:07:06.680
<v Speaker 2>I hope it's not left I hope it's not a

168
00:07:06.680 --> 00:07:08.959
<v Speaker 2>retrad what's gonna be? It's you know, it's gonna I know,

169
00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:11.040
<v Speaker 2>but it's just you. Who's your team?

170
00:07:11.800 --> 00:07:13.560
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I grew up as a Niners fan, but

171
00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:15.759
<v Speaker 4>I am now a Packers fan because my dad.

172
00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:18.680
<v Speaker 3>You were a Pakish fan because your dad before No,

173
00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:20.720
<v Speaker 3>I was. I was a child of the eighties, so

174
00:07:20.759 --> 00:07:21.959
<v Speaker 3>I got like I had.

175
00:07:21.920 --> 00:07:25.920
<v Speaker 4>Rice and so I grew up in that little Steve

176
00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:28.079
<v Speaker 4>Young is my dad. Yeah, yeah, he gets lost a lot,

177
00:07:28.160 --> 00:07:32.839
<v Speaker 4>so but yeah he's still Well that's that's that's what story. Yeah,

178
00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:37.399
<v Speaker 4>why won't you be your dad's son back then? But

179
00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:37.959
<v Speaker 4>now you are?

180
00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:40.160
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. How do you change allegiance because your dad?

181
00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:41.959
<v Speaker 4>But you're never thing because when I started getting into

182
00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:44.319
<v Speaker 4>the NFL, it was Niners, right, that's hell with you.

183
00:07:44.399 --> 00:07:47.680
<v Speaker 3>Dad, and hell with you dad. No, no, no, I

184
00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:48.279
<v Speaker 3>was never like that.

185
00:07:48.360 --> 00:07:50.560
<v Speaker 4>My dad's an Oakland A's fan and I'm a Cubs fan,

186
00:07:50.600 --> 00:07:52.199
<v Speaker 4>and now he's a Cubs fan. Die Hard cut so

187
00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:54.480
<v Speaker 4>you so we flip flop for each other. That's the

188
00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:56.240
<v Speaker 4>amount of love that we have for our families.

189
00:07:56.560 --> 00:07:59.240
<v Speaker 2>At what point did this happen? That's an Irish love, right,

190
00:07:59.279 --> 00:08:02.519
<v Speaker 2>the new champion? I do take blue class seal. I

191
00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:05.639
<v Speaker 2>got an ARP card yesterday. So what are you going

192
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:08.879
<v Speaker 2>to do? I know it came in the mail this identified.

193
00:08:09.920 --> 00:08:11.560
<v Speaker 2>What are we gonna talk about? You're done right, You're

194
00:08:11.560 --> 00:08:12.839
<v Speaker 2>done with We're gonna talk about something.

195
00:08:13.639 --> 00:08:15.040
<v Speaker 4>I think we were just gonna hit on that Lion's

196
00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:16.439
<v Speaker 4>piece because we had a chance to.

197
00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:18.519
<v Speaker 3>It's just such a disappointing loss.

198
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:20.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, go ahead, But I was talk to you about

199
00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:26.160
<v Speaker 2>something else. Go ahead, they lost you move on? Yeah, yeah,

200
00:08:26.439 --> 00:08:28.040
<v Speaker 2>then we're gonna talk about something else. We have the time.

201
00:08:28.199 --> 00:08:29.879
<v Speaker 3>Let me ask you this question because we haven't talked

202
00:08:29.879 --> 00:08:30.199
<v Speaker 3>about that.

203
00:08:30.519 --> 00:08:33.080
<v Speaker 4>We talked about playoffs, right, playoffs for all the sports

204
00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:36.720
<v Speaker 4>we're talking about playoffs. What's your favorite playoffs set up

205
00:08:36.840 --> 00:08:39.799
<v Speaker 4>for all professional sports? Like, what's your one that you're like, Okay,

206
00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:41.480
<v Speaker 4>I might not watch a lot of during the season,

207
00:08:41.519 --> 00:08:43.200
<v Speaker 4>but I'm watching playoffs.

208
00:08:43.399 --> 00:08:47.480
<v Speaker 2>You well, I only watch NBA. I watched little NBA until.

209
00:08:47.240 --> 00:08:49.840
<v Speaker 4>The playoffs, so you watch at the start of the playoffs,

210
00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:52.399
<v Speaker 4>because to me, any playoffs is like three months long.

211
00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:54.720
<v Speaker 3>I covered it, so it was a long last summer

212
00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:55.919
<v Speaker 3>a season, and.

213
00:08:55.840 --> 00:08:57.240
<v Speaker 4>Now they have a tournament in the middle of the

214
00:08:57.279 --> 00:08:59.440
<v Speaker 4>season too, so it's like, I don't it's almost too much.

215
00:08:59.559 --> 00:09:02.600
<v Speaker 3>I don't pay. NHL is almost that same way.

216
00:09:03.080 --> 00:09:04.879
<v Speaker 2>That's a good question, and that it doesn't affect me,

217
00:09:04.919 --> 00:09:06.279
<v Speaker 2>so I'm the bad guy to ask.

218
00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:10.000
<v Speaker 5>Okay, well, and then I'll ask covery my favorite NFL

219
00:09:10.080 --> 00:09:12.559
<v Speaker 5>because it's one game so you can't miss it.

220
00:09:12.919 --> 00:09:14.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's more dramatic.

221
00:09:14.840 --> 00:09:18.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I like this series more though, and I I'm

222
00:09:18.120 --> 00:09:20.440
<v Speaker 4>a baseball basically, I'm a homer. I mean, you've got

223
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:23.000
<v Speaker 4>series in other sports too, but I like I like

224
00:09:23.080 --> 00:09:24.720
<v Speaker 4>the up and down factor and be able to make

225
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:27.159
<v Speaker 4>adjustments throughout. I like the one like super Bowl to me,

226
00:09:27.240 --> 00:09:29.720
<v Speaker 4>is the greatest game just because everything's on.

227
00:09:29.679 --> 00:09:32.080
<v Speaker 3>The line for that. Yeah, but I like it.

228
00:09:32.200 --> 00:09:34.120
<v Speaker 4>I like a series, but for me, it's hard to

229
00:09:34.120 --> 00:09:36.360
<v Speaker 4>get in the NBA and NHL because it's just so long.

230
00:09:36.639 --> 00:09:38.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, no, I hear.

231
00:09:38.759 --> 00:09:40.879
<v Speaker 2>So the question we were talking about too off the air

232
00:09:41.279 --> 00:09:44.840
<v Speaker 2>was Donny sent. The team that excelled without really being

233
00:09:44.840 --> 00:09:48.000
<v Speaker 2>any good was the Russ Penal mug Dunlap year. Yeah,

234
00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:50.559
<v Speaker 2>they went to the Sweet sixteen, you know, beat Cleveland

235
00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:52.600
<v Speaker 2>State in the second game and beat Utah I think

236
00:09:52.600 --> 00:09:54.720
<v Speaker 2>in the first game, and then get their butts handed

237
00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:57.759
<v Speaker 2>to them by Louisville. Yeah. Absolutely, in two thousand and nine,

238
00:09:57.960 --> 00:09:59.919
<v Speaker 2>two thousand and eight, So that was I guess the

239
00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:01.519
<v Speaker 2>other team that was okay, But.

240
00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:05.000
<v Speaker 4>You put that whole year into perspective, I think you're

241
00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:07.879
<v Speaker 4>there's an argument to me there. I still think my arguments.

242
00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:09.960
<v Speaker 4>You still have two NBA players on that team, and

243
00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:11.879
<v Speaker 4>you've got Kyle Fogg that ends up having a long

244
00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:15.559
<v Speaker 4>career as well, and Nick Wise. I mean, so yes,

245
00:10:15.759 --> 00:10:18.480
<v Speaker 4>but it's hard for me to say that you outperform

246
00:10:18.519 --> 00:10:20.320
<v Speaker 4>when you've got to NBA guys.

247
00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:22.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, is that wrong with me to.

248
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:26.080
<v Speaker 2>Say, Well, in hindsight, you don't know that well, you

249
00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:28.120
<v Speaker 2>know that Chase, well, the Chase and Hill.

250
00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:30.360
<v Speaker 3>Yes, you didn't know Hill was going to be that

251
00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:33.080
<v Speaker 3>I mean, is a highly rated game, yeah Hill. Yeah,

252
00:10:33.159 --> 00:10:35.360
<v Speaker 3>and he's lasted fairly long in the in the league.

253
00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:38.600
<v Speaker 2>Maybe, I guess to your to your point, yes, but

254
00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:41.879
<v Speaker 2>every year they've had people that expect that with the

255
00:10:41.919 --> 00:10:44.320
<v Speaker 2>u of a correct So I mean, I guess that's

256
00:10:44.320 --> 00:10:45.360
<v Speaker 2>a that's over achieving team.

257
00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:46.159
<v Speaker 3>That's a counterpoint.

258
00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:48.840
<v Speaker 2>But again, I mean the only thing you measured Luke

259
00:10:48.879 --> 00:10:51.919
<v Speaker 2>teams were the underachieving teams because they either flamed out

260
00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:52.879
<v Speaker 2>or they did really well.

261
00:10:53.759 --> 00:10:55.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean we you know, we talk about a

262
00:10:55.480 --> 00:10:57.519
<v Speaker 4>bad loss with Tommy Lloyd, and we went through a

263
00:10:57.559 --> 00:11:00.480
<v Speaker 4>lot with with lou the Boston things. Yeah, I mean

264
00:11:00.480 --> 00:11:02.399
<v Speaker 4>that was a bad loss, but you you know, Santa

265
00:11:02.399 --> 00:11:04.679
<v Speaker 4>Clair was a really bad loss with a great team.

266
00:11:04.919 --> 00:11:07.600
<v Speaker 3>It was East Tennessee State, East Tennessee State, that was

267
00:11:07.679 --> 00:11:11.679
<v Speaker 3>before Santa Clara. Yeah, in Miami, Ohio, Aden's lost. I mean,

268
00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:12.759
<v Speaker 3>would have stopped.

269
00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:19.840
<v Speaker 2>Torture because I can get this inside. It is what

270
00:11:19.879 --> 00:11:22.480
<v Speaker 2>it is, and we'll see, we'll see how far Tommy goes.

271
00:11:23.320 --> 00:11:25.399
<v Speaker 2>Right now, I think there'll probably be a six or seven,

272
00:11:25.519 --> 00:11:26.320
<v Speaker 2>maybe eight seed.

273
00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:29.399
<v Speaker 3>I'm okay with that though, because they're in no.

274
00:11:29.600 --> 00:11:31.960
<v Speaker 4>I just I think that's I think there's some motivation

275
00:11:32.039 --> 00:11:35.840
<v Speaker 4>to be had there, right. I mean, you're maybe not

276
00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:38.159
<v Speaker 4>better matchups at the start, but as you go through it,

277
00:11:38.240 --> 00:11:40.799
<v Speaker 4>I mean we've been through it. My biggest thing right

278
00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:44.039
<v Speaker 4>now is I'm watching Tommy coach, right, and people will

279
00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:46.480
<v Speaker 4>argue with me in and out and we had this conversation.

280
00:11:47.159 --> 00:11:50.320
<v Speaker 4>Tell me, yeah, we had this conversation already. But you

281
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:53.440
<v Speaker 4>had an offense that was built through two guys, Mo

282
00:11:53.879 --> 00:11:57.480
<v Speaker 4>and Love. Okay, right, you lost Mo Loves not playing

283
00:11:57.559 --> 00:11:59.879
<v Speaker 4>like an All American. So you've had to watch Tommy

284
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:03.039
<v Speaker 4>evolve his whole game plan and structure and execute it

285
00:12:03.039 --> 00:12:05.159
<v Speaker 4>on the floor with players that maybe weren't put in

286
00:12:05.159 --> 00:12:06.000
<v Speaker 4>that position earlier.

287
00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:06.639
<v Speaker 6>This year.

288
00:12:06.759 --> 00:12:10.320
<v Speaker 4>This year, I think it's I think whether people agree

289
00:12:10.399 --> 00:12:12.000
<v Speaker 4>or disagree, I'm going to stand by it. I think

290
00:12:12.080 --> 00:12:14.480
<v Speaker 4>he's a really good coach to be able to do

291
00:12:14.519 --> 00:12:17.120
<v Speaker 4>that now, his in game coaching I still question at times.

292
00:12:17.159 --> 00:12:18.960
<v Speaker 4>I think everybody's going to as a fan, you should,

293
00:12:19.120 --> 00:12:21.759
<v Speaker 4>We're all going to be back seat quarterbacks, right Uh.

294
00:12:22.080 --> 00:12:24.120
<v Speaker 4>But I mean he has. He has got a lot

295
00:12:24.159 --> 00:12:26.360
<v Speaker 4>out of this team from the starting point to now,

296
00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:28.159
<v Speaker 4>even with the loss of Texas deck.

297
00:12:28.320 --> 00:12:28.519
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

298
00:12:28.559 --> 00:12:32.519
<v Speaker 2>So you're you torture yourself and I do from time

299
00:12:32.559 --> 00:12:35.720
<v Speaker 2>to time on Facebook reading what people write in game

300
00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:39.320
<v Speaker 2>and outside games. What was the underlying theme when you

301
00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:42.279
<v Speaker 2>went to the websites on Saturday.

302
00:12:41.919 --> 00:12:42.679
<v Speaker 3>So I mean have gay.

303
00:12:42.919 --> 00:12:45.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I don't go on it to Saturday, like I know,

304
00:12:45.039 --> 00:12:47.960
<v Speaker 4>if why did you? Why did I? I went on

305
00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:50.879
<v Speaker 4>it last night? Oh to just to you know, to

306
00:12:50.879 --> 00:12:54.159
<v Speaker 4>torture myself. Okay, yeah, it's an Irish martyr thing, right,

307
00:12:54.200 --> 00:12:55.639
<v Speaker 4>so I want to go on it just so I

308
00:12:55.639 --> 00:12:58.639
<v Speaker 4>can say I did it. Uh, It's but I just

309
00:12:59.039 --> 00:13:01.879
<v Speaker 4>I'm kind of I have a tough time grasping how

310
00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:05.080
<v Speaker 4>people view him as a coach. And when you goes see, well,

311
00:13:05.120 --> 00:13:08.519
<v Speaker 4>you're you're going from when he wins, unbelievable, great team effort. Right,

312
00:13:08.600 --> 00:13:10.879
<v Speaker 4>guys played incredible and as soon as he loses, it's

313
00:13:10.919 --> 00:13:13.360
<v Speaker 4>Tommy's fault. Now, you know, I've been on both sides

314
00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:15.480
<v Speaker 4>of the ball. Players play coaches coach, right, So you

315
00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:17.799
<v Speaker 4>come up with a game plan, those game and those

316
00:13:17.840 --> 00:13:20.679
<v Speaker 4>in game adjustments. You can tweet to a point, but

317
00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:22.080
<v Speaker 4>those guys still have to play the game.

318
00:13:22.679 --> 00:13:22.840
<v Speaker 3>Right.

319
00:13:22.879 --> 00:13:24.919
<v Speaker 4>So we were talking about a culture like that culture

320
00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:26.639
<v Speaker 4>has to shift, and when you don't have a defined

321
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:29.360
<v Speaker 4>leader on the floor or on the court, it's really

322
00:13:29.399 --> 00:13:31.720
<v Speaker 4>hard to ingrain that situation in those players.

323
00:13:31.799 --> 00:13:33.440
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so let's assume for a second you had a

324
00:13:33.519 --> 00:13:36.440
<v Speaker 2>leader you had a leader, and I think the leaders overrated,

325
00:13:36.559 --> 00:13:39.320
<v Speaker 2>kind of like momentum to me, what do they do?

326
00:13:39.679 --> 00:13:41.120
<v Speaker 4>Can I ask you this question? We'll get to that

327
00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:44.480
<v Speaker 4>in a second. You really think momentums overrated? It's it's

328
00:13:44.600 --> 00:13:48.799
<v Speaker 4>doesn't exist. The word itself doesn't exist. And I'm going

329
00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:51.480
<v Speaker 4>kind of literal because we're not talking about a physics standpoint. Okay,

330
00:13:51.519 --> 00:13:53.639
<v Speaker 4>well that's we are. So that's what momentum is. It's

331
00:13:53.679 --> 00:13:54.639
<v Speaker 4>it's a physics standpoint.

332
00:13:54.759 --> 00:13:57.759
<v Speaker 2>It's a used word because no one knows what other

333
00:13:57.799 --> 00:13:59.720
<v Speaker 2>word to use. But it's a run. If you're on

334
00:13:59.720 --> 00:14:01.759
<v Speaker 2>a run and you're run, you run a run because

335
00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:02.600
<v Speaker 2>eventually that run.

336
00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:03.039
<v Speaker 3>Is going to end.

337
00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:06.039
<v Speaker 2>Momentum is like me walking to the to the door

338
00:14:06.120 --> 00:14:07.399
<v Speaker 2>and I lose my momentum.

339
00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:09.360
<v Speaker 3>Well I never had momentum. I just walked to the door.

340
00:14:09.360 --> 00:14:11.960
<v Speaker 2>You don't saying, but there's no other really word to

341
00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:17.919
<v Speaker 2>use in the in sports that makes sense except for

342
00:14:17.919 --> 00:14:20.279
<v Speaker 2>a run. He had a run ninety seven, they written

343
00:14:20.279 --> 00:14:21.879
<v Speaker 2>they had a run. It's not they had a momentum.

344
00:14:21.879 --> 00:14:23.639
<v Speaker 2>They didn't start with momentum when at the end of

345
00:14:23.639 --> 00:14:27.679
<v Speaker 2>the year they were the one zero two in the bay. Yeah, yeah,

346
00:14:27.720 --> 00:14:28.840
<v Speaker 2>I guess I can understand that.

347
00:14:28.919 --> 00:14:30.639
<v Speaker 3>I think. I think. My question to you is, and

348
00:14:30.679 --> 00:14:31.879
<v Speaker 3>I is.

349
00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:34.240
<v Speaker 2>That, Well, if you go zero three, if you go

350
00:14:34.320 --> 00:14:37.080
<v Speaker 2>three and zero, and you go and lose the next game,

351
00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:38.639
<v Speaker 2>what happened to that momentum?

352
00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:42.440
<v Speaker 3>You have momentum? You hat a blocker. Yeah, you had

353
00:14:42.480 --> 00:14:43.960
<v Speaker 3>a nice run. You had a cooler that came to

354
00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:46.039
<v Speaker 3>the table. There you go.

355
00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:49.039
<v Speaker 2>If you have momentum, guess what it should last a while,

356
00:14:49.120 --> 00:14:51.000
<v Speaker 2>doesn't I mean, yeah, if you were talking from a

357
00:14:51.039 --> 00:14:55.000
<v Speaker 2>specifically physical physics standpoint, yes, you're correct. Yeah, so's he

358
00:14:55.039 --> 00:14:56.600
<v Speaker 2>had a great run. That's how I use it.

359
00:14:56.600 --> 00:14:58.279
<v Speaker 3>Instead. All right, let's get back to the other question.

360
00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:01.559
<v Speaker 3>What was the other question? What the hell? What the hell?

361
00:15:01.679 --> 00:15:02.080
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

362
00:15:02.120 --> 00:15:04.759

<v Speaker 3>What were we talking about before? We said?

365
00:15:08.320 --> 00:15:12.720
<v Speaker 2>Just before we go there? Oh, no, we gotta go anyway,

389
00:16:29.159 --> 00:16:31.240
<v Speaker 2>needed a lot of gravel for my driveway, so I

390
00:16:31.279 --> 00:16:33.519
<v Speaker 2>called Eric at Dorato Rock. He found out the amount

391
00:16:33.600 --> 00:16:35.879
<v Speaker 2>and color I needed and boom. It was taken care

474
00:20:25.240 --> 00:20:30.000
<v Speaker 2>Now we have Ryan Hanson, who is with the basketball programs,

475
00:20:30.039 --> 00:20:32.680
<v Speaker 2>just not today. Not have a question for you, Ryan,

476
00:20:32.799 --> 00:20:34.319
<v Speaker 2>What the hell is going on with this team?

477
00:20:35.920 --> 00:20:38.839
<v Speaker 6>Oh, Steve, it's you know, you go on a great

478
00:20:38.880 --> 00:20:43.079
<v Speaker 6>winning street right and it feels like all is right

479
00:20:43.160 --> 00:20:45.079
<v Speaker 6>with the world, but when you dive in a little

480
00:20:45.119 --> 00:20:48.519
<v Speaker 6>bit deeper, all was not right. They fixed a few things,

481
00:20:48.559 --> 00:20:51.119
<v Speaker 6>they play a little bit better, got some good wins,

482
00:20:51.799 --> 00:20:55.440
<v Speaker 6>and then some of the same things that bard Arizona

483
00:20:55.559 --> 00:20:59.400
<v Speaker 6>in their losses reared their ugly head against Texas Tech.

484
00:20:59.599 --> 00:21:00.559
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, this funny.

485
00:21:00.559 --> 00:21:02.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure you get this often because of how you're

486
00:21:02.759 --> 00:21:05.640
<v Speaker 2>connected to the team, and people ask me this question

487
00:21:05.680 --> 00:21:08.559
<v Speaker 2>because maybe for the same reason. Oh, they won seventh

488
00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:10.799
<v Speaker 2>street games five in the league. Says, Oh, everything's back.

489
00:21:10.880 --> 00:21:13.319
<v Speaker 2>They're really good. They're playing really well, and I'm thinking

490
00:21:13.440 --> 00:21:16.480
<v Speaker 2>be careful here because they haven't really played anybody.

491
00:21:16.839 --> 00:21:19.519
<v Speaker 3>Yes, they beat Baylor, but it was at home. Let's

492
00:21:19.519 --> 00:21:21.000
<v Speaker 3>talk when they go on the road.

493
00:21:20.799 --> 00:21:24.279
<v Speaker 2>And then here we go. That's kind of how I

494
00:21:24.319 --> 00:21:26.519
<v Speaker 2>said it. They're playing Okay, but.

495
00:21:28.160 --> 00:21:29.720
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, no, I agree with you.

496
00:21:29.759 --> 00:21:31.480
<v Speaker 16>And what's interesting when you dive in.

497
00:21:31.440 --> 00:21:34.920
<v Speaker 6>Right, you can get excited with the win at West

498
00:21:34.960 --> 00:21:38.200
<v Speaker 6>Virginia when you stack up that same team just beat

499
00:21:38.240 --> 00:21:41.160
<v Speaker 6>Iowa State at home. Yeah, and so you start to

500
00:21:41.240 --> 00:21:43.640
<v Speaker 6>look at some things. Look at it. UCF, it's been

501
00:21:43.680 --> 00:21:48.240
<v Speaker 6>in some games. TCU is now won some games. So

502
00:21:48.400 --> 00:21:52.160
<v Speaker 6>you say, well, those are actually not bad wins. But

503
00:21:52.319 --> 00:21:56.720
<v Speaker 6>were you correcting the issues? And I've used the phrase

504
00:21:56.759 --> 00:21:59.119
<v Speaker 6>here recently. We can't be a prisoner of the moment

505
00:21:59.480 --> 00:22:01.640
<v Speaker 6>when things are good. Let's not be a prisoner of

506
00:22:01.680 --> 00:22:03.839
<v Speaker 6>the moment when things are bad. But Steve, I'll point

507
00:22:03.839 --> 00:22:06.759
<v Speaker 6>out things that you I know you've already got on

508
00:22:06.799 --> 00:22:10.519
<v Speaker 6>your list and you've talked about. There are three major

509
00:22:10.839 --> 00:22:15.720
<v Speaker 6>issues with this team, starting with outside shooting. The lack

510
00:22:15.759 --> 00:22:19.240
<v Speaker 6>of consistency of three point shooting in their losses. Arizona's

511
00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:22.720
<v Speaker 6>shooting twenty three percent from the three point line. What

512
00:22:22.759 --> 00:22:25.640
<v Speaker 6>did they do at Texas Tech three of eighteen? Okay,

513
00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:29.079
<v Speaker 6>don't need to talk more about how important outside shooting is.

514
00:22:29.160 --> 00:22:33.279
<v Speaker 6>We know that Arizona has now under Tommy Lloyd for

515
00:22:33.359 --> 00:22:35.960
<v Speaker 6>the first time since he's been a coach as a

516
00:22:36.039 --> 00:22:40.400
<v Speaker 6>concern about rebounding. They have not been rebounding it that

517
00:22:40.519 --> 00:22:43.759
<v Speaker 6>well as of late. That was a major concern against

518
00:22:43.759 --> 00:22:48.079
<v Speaker 6>Texas Tech and can be moving forward is not figured out.

519
00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:51.640
<v Speaker 6>So let's that's number two. Number three. You know where

520
00:22:51.640 --> 00:22:56.279
<v Speaker 6>I'm going here. Trey Townsend and Caleb Love's lack of consistency.

521
00:22:56.400 --> 00:22:59.440
<v Speaker 6>Two of your top three scoring weapons when we came

522
00:22:59.480 --> 00:23:01.519
<v Speaker 6>into the Sea and I think I was on with you,

523
00:23:01.599 --> 00:23:03.839
<v Speaker 6>Steve at the beginning of the year, and at that

524
00:23:04.000 --> 00:23:08.640
<v Speaker 6>time we might have said option number one offensively Caleb Love,

525
00:23:08.799 --> 00:23:13.000
<v Speaker 6>option number two. Maybe Trey Townsend. He's probably the third

526
00:23:13.039 --> 00:23:15.480
<v Speaker 6>best option coming into the year based on what you

527
00:23:15.559 --> 00:23:19.599
<v Speaker 6>had seen in his years at Oakland that he should

528
00:23:19.640 --> 00:23:23.319
<v Speaker 6>be more of an offensive weapon. Unfortunately, his lack of

529
00:23:23.359 --> 00:23:27.279
<v Speaker 6>consistency is now almost made him a detriment to the

530
00:23:27.319 --> 00:23:30.519
<v Speaker 6>team if he can't just hold his own let alone

531
00:23:30.559 --> 00:23:31.279
<v Speaker 6>be a force.

532
00:23:31.799 --> 00:23:33.240
<v Speaker 16>Those three areas for me.

533
00:23:33.519 --> 00:23:36.559
<v Speaker 6>That's what it reared its ugly head against Texas Tech

534
00:23:36.920 --> 00:23:39.839
<v Speaker 6>and could be some concerns for the rest of the year.

535
00:23:39.880 --> 00:23:43.319
<v Speaker 6>If those things are off, Arizona has a hard time

536
00:23:43.359 --> 00:23:44.640
<v Speaker 6>coming and winning.

537
00:23:44.319 --> 00:23:48.359
<v Speaker 2>Games right, and Arizona has very little wiggle room to

538
00:23:48.640 --> 00:23:51.359
<v Speaker 2>deviate from anything bad. You know, they have to play

539
00:23:51.359 --> 00:23:53.319
<v Speaker 2>well to win, especially on the road.

540
00:23:54.440 --> 00:23:58.160
<v Speaker 6>Especially on the road in this conference, tough environments. Now,

541
00:23:58.759 --> 00:24:02.640
<v Speaker 6>you know, I'm probably gonna sound bipolar here. That being said,

542
00:24:02.720 --> 00:24:06.920
<v Speaker 6>the Wildcats didn't play very well on Saturday, and what

543
00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:10.079
<v Speaker 6>let's look, Oh, it was a three point game, that's

544
00:24:10.079 --> 00:24:12.920
<v Speaker 6>five minutes to go. They could have stolen a game

545
00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:15.920
<v Speaker 6>that they didn't play that well because other guys have

546
00:24:16.400 --> 00:24:20.480
<v Speaker 6>consistently been bringing in But you're right, the margin for

547
00:24:20.640 --> 00:24:24.960
<v Speaker 6>air is difficult with the rotation where they're at now

548
00:24:25.000 --> 00:24:28.559
<v Speaker 6>and who needs to play the most minutes. You know,

549
00:24:28.880 --> 00:24:31.559
<v Speaker 6>It's just it's not as the margin for error is

550
00:24:31.599 --> 00:24:33.680
<v Speaker 6>not there, and that's difficult on the road in a

551
00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:36.119
<v Speaker 6>tough conference to have to play at a certain level

552
00:24:36.799 --> 00:24:37.839
<v Speaker 6>to get the w.

553
00:24:38.440 --> 00:24:42.160
<v Speaker 4>Hey Ryan Blake here, Yeah, when we were talking about Townsend,

554
00:24:42.240 --> 00:24:45.000
<v Speaker 4>it's surprising because you're watching in preseason, you're looking at

555
00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:47.799
<v Speaker 4>highlights at Oakland. I mean, he was arguably one of

556
00:24:47.839 --> 00:24:50.240
<v Speaker 4>the best transfers for us to get at that time.

557
00:24:50.640 --> 00:24:53.000
<v Speaker 4>But it doesn't look like it's almost like fitting a

558
00:24:53.039 --> 00:24:55.680
<v Speaker 4>square peg into a round hole. When he's on offense,

559
00:24:55.720 --> 00:24:57.839
<v Speaker 4>like he wants to slow it down, he wants one

560
00:24:57.880 --> 00:25:00.519
<v Speaker 4>on one and if it's not going in, it's almost

561
00:25:00.559 --> 00:25:02.160
<v Speaker 4>like he's a detriment winning's on the floor.

562
00:25:02.160 --> 00:25:04.240
<v Speaker 3>Do you think they can fix that in the timeframe

563
00:25:04.279 --> 00:25:04.559
<v Speaker 3>that we.

564
00:25:04.559 --> 00:25:09.039
<v Speaker 6>Have, great question. I'll spin it back a little bit.

565
00:25:09.160 --> 00:25:12.160
<v Speaker 6>The first what dozen games of the year, it was

566
00:25:12.720 --> 00:25:15.279
<v Speaker 6>working some and not working some right Blake, So you

567
00:25:15.279 --> 00:25:18.000
<v Speaker 6>could see some promise there, but you at least were

568
00:25:18.000 --> 00:25:21.319
<v Speaker 6>willing to say, it's going to take time for Tommy

569
00:25:21.359 --> 00:25:25.039
<v Speaker 6>to figure out how Trey Townsend can get his offense

570
00:25:25.160 --> 00:25:29.039
<v Speaker 6>because the system that Arizona has run under Tommy Lloyd

571
00:25:29.160 --> 00:25:34.319
<v Speaker 6>was not suitable, maybe not conducive to Trey Townsend's way

572
00:25:34.440 --> 00:25:38.680
<v Speaker 6>of scoring right, free flowing, read and react, get your

573
00:25:38.680 --> 00:25:41.960
<v Speaker 6>offense in the flow of the set calls. It really

574
00:25:42.000 --> 00:25:44.720
<v Speaker 6>needed to be like this is a call for Trey.

575
00:25:44.799 --> 00:25:46.960
<v Speaker 6>We're going to isolate him at the elbow. We're going

576
00:25:47.039 --> 00:25:48.640
<v Speaker 6>to put him in a position to be able to

577
00:25:48.680 --> 00:25:53.200
<v Speaker 6>back down smaller defenders, take bigger defenders onto the perimeter.

578
00:25:53.799 --> 00:25:57.720
<v Speaker 6>I still think there's time for Tommy to tweak the

579
00:25:57.799 --> 00:26:01.039
<v Speaker 6>system to get the most out of Trey Townsend. But

580
00:26:01.160 --> 00:26:05.200
<v Speaker 6>I think the question remains, is that playing twenty eight

581
00:26:05.240 --> 00:26:08.119
<v Speaker 6>minutes a game, or do we need to potentially look

582
00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:12.519
<v Speaker 6>at more minutes for other guys, namely for me, Carter Bryant,

583
00:26:12.839 --> 00:26:15.359
<v Speaker 6>I think needs more time, and I think he's getting

584
00:26:15.400 --> 00:26:18.400
<v Speaker 6>it and he's earning it. I think Tommy may need

585
00:26:18.440 --> 00:26:20.799
<v Speaker 6>to pick his spots a little bit more with where

586
00:26:20.839 --> 00:26:24.400
<v Speaker 6>Trey Townsend can help Arizona, because I do think Tray

587
00:26:24.519 --> 00:26:27.440
<v Speaker 6>can help us. I don't think the verdict is in

588
00:26:27.480 --> 00:26:29.319
<v Speaker 6>and we know he can't play at Arizona.

589
00:26:29.400 --> 00:26:30.160
<v Speaker 16>Let's not go there.

590
00:26:30.200 --> 00:26:33.400
<v Speaker 6>That's unfair to the kid who's put in great years

591
00:26:33.119 --> 00:26:36.599
<v Speaker 6>of college basketball, and that's unfair to Tommy Lloyd to say, well,

592
00:26:36.880 --> 00:26:39.400
<v Speaker 6>Tommy can't figure it out, because I have more hope

593
00:26:39.599 --> 00:26:42.519
<v Speaker 6>and confidence in Tommy than that. But I think Tommy

594
00:26:42.880 --> 00:26:45.519
<v Speaker 6>is looking at that and I think he's still deeper

595
00:26:45.559 --> 00:26:48.240
<v Speaker 6>in the year than any year we've seen with Tommy before,

596
00:26:48.480 --> 00:26:52.799
<v Speaker 6>still trying to figure out the rotations and the combinations.

597
00:26:53.200 --> 00:26:54.880
<v Speaker 3>No, no, I totally agree with you.

598
00:26:54.960 --> 00:26:57.480
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't be surprised if he's already done this with

599
00:26:57.559 --> 00:27:00.440
<v Speaker 2>kJ moving him off the free of the sorry lineup

600
00:27:00.599 --> 00:27:02.720
<v Speaker 2>to move him to the sixth guy. That maybe he

601
00:27:03.160 --> 00:27:06.599
<v Speaker 2>Townsend gets a recalibration coming off the bench with Bryant,

602
00:27:06.640 --> 00:27:09.000
<v Speaker 2>who's played very well in the last month or so.

603
00:27:09.279 --> 00:27:14.200
<v Speaker 2>More confidence, more aggressive with himself, and maybe that happens too.

604
00:27:15.599 --> 00:27:18.759
<v Speaker 6>Yeah. I like the phrase recalibration because part of why

605
00:27:18.839 --> 00:27:22.319
<v Speaker 6>why has Carter Bryant all of a sudden figured it out?

606
00:27:22.480 --> 00:27:24.960
<v Speaker 6>Some of it is confidence, no doubt, right, the freshman

607
00:27:25.440 --> 00:27:29.680
<v Speaker 6>grew into himself throughout this freshman season. But I also

608
00:27:29.839 --> 00:27:32.880
<v Speaker 6>could argue part of why Carter's playing better is he's

609
00:27:32.920 --> 00:27:35.960
<v Speaker 6>more comfortable in the position he's playing and the players

610
00:27:36.000 --> 00:27:40.400
<v Speaker 6>that are guarding him because he's at that power forward slot.

611
00:27:40.880 --> 00:27:44.279
<v Speaker 6>College basketball in twenty twenty five, power forwards are not

612
00:27:44.319 --> 00:27:47.720
<v Speaker 6>what we remember see from nineteen ninety four, right, it's

613
00:27:47.720 --> 00:27:51.319
<v Speaker 6>not ninety four anymore. But what we know is Carter's

614
00:27:51.319 --> 00:27:53.559
<v Speaker 6>being defended by guys that might not be able to

615
00:27:53.559 --> 00:27:56.680
<v Speaker 6>handle him on the perimeter as easily as a smaller

616
00:27:56.759 --> 00:28:00.440
<v Speaker 6>forward or as a perimeter oriented guard. That's helped Carter

617
00:28:00.559 --> 00:28:04.960
<v Speaker 6>be more effective, be more productive. So that recalibration worked

618
00:28:05.000 --> 00:28:08.680
<v Speaker 6>beautifully for Carter. Putting him in the starting lineup. Does

619
00:28:08.720 --> 00:28:11.599
<v Speaker 6>that work for Carter? It's not just does it? Is

620
00:28:11.640 --> 00:28:14.920
<v Speaker 6>it better for Tray to be recalibrated? Does that rotation

621
00:28:15.079 --> 00:28:18.319
<v Speaker 6>do you want more time with Tobey and Carter together?

622
00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:21.240
<v Speaker 6>I mean, that's that's where Tommy's paid a lot of

623
00:28:21.240 --> 00:28:23.079
<v Speaker 6>money to be the head coach in Arizona because he

624
00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:26.799
<v Speaker 6>knows these things better than than us talking heads of

625
00:28:27.000 --> 00:28:30.240
<v Speaker 6>how what the ripple effect? Does that need more minutes

626
00:28:30.240 --> 00:28:32.720
<v Speaker 6>for Carter? You got to look at the bigger picture.

627
00:28:32.720 --> 00:28:35.759
<v Speaker 6>It's not just more minutes for Carter. How does it

628
00:28:35.799 --> 00:28:38.000
<v Speaker 6>impact the rest of the combinations?

629
00:28:39.480 --> 00:28:41.720
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Ryan, we were we were talking off the air,

630
00:28:42.079 --> 00:28:44.759
<v Speaker 4>and this is a question that I think Steve wanted

631
00:28:44.759 --> 00:28:47.000
<v Speaker 4>to ask you. But I'm a steal a front. Yeah,

632
00:28:47.839 --> 00:28:49.359
<v Speaker 4>this is the last time I'll ever be on air. Sorry,

633
00:28:49.400 --> 00:28:51.799
<v Speaker 4>might as look at it up. Who do you think

634
00:28:52.240 --> 00:28:54.000
<v Speaker 4>do you think there's a true leader on this team?

635
00:28:54.039 --> 00:28:55.880
<v Speaker 3>And if so, who do you think this is? This

636
00:28:55.920 --> 00:28:57.240
<v Speaker 3>is the question we wanted to ask you.

637
00:28:57.200 --> 00:29:02.920
<v Speaker 6>To, uh additional leader? I don't know if I see one?

638
00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:03.279
<v Speaker 2>Right?

639
00:29:03.440 --> 00:29:06.119
<v Speaker 6>That is, typically you look at your point guard. That's

640
00:29:06.160 --> 00:29:09.680
<v Speaker 6>where you normally would started with a guard position, balls

641
00:29:09.680 --> 00:29:12.720
<v Speaker 6>in their hands. They're at the top of the offense,

642
00:29:12.799 --> 00:29:15.359
<v Speaker 6>the top of the defense. Very rarely is your leader

643
00:29:15.400 --> 00:29:19.160
<v Speaker 6>as center right, just it's not Bill Russell. Days from

644
00:29:19.200 --> 00:29:22.519
<v Speaker 6>the sixties throwing. I'm in my throwback conversations here with

645
00:29:22.599 --> 00:29:25.960
<v Speaker 6>you guys. I do think that that could be a

646
00:29:25.960 --> 00:29:30.240
<v Speaker 6>potential challenge because Jaden not overlead vocal as just a

647
00:29:30.319 --> 00:29:33.359
<v Speaker 6>human being and a person. I think he leads by example.

648
00:29:34.359 --> 00:29:38.440
<v Speaker 6>I think you could argue Caleb Love at moments in

649
00:29:38.559 --> 00:29:40.960
<v Speaker 6>his year and a half of being a Wildcat could

650
00:29:41.000 --> 00:29:45.279
<v Speaker 6>be dubbed the leader because he's the alpha on offense.

651
00:29:45.799 --> 00:29:49.279
<v Speaker 6>But his inconsistencies make it difficult I think for him

652
00:29:49.400 --> 00:29:52.279
<v Speaker 6>to be the leader right when things aren't going well

653
00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:54.920
<v Speaker 6>and he's not producing. That's a little more difficult to

654
00:29:55.000 --> 00:29:58.720
<v Speaker 6>lead when you're not on the floor in critical moments

655
00:29:58.759 --> 00:30:01.559
<v Speaker 6>where Tommy's done a good I think of taking Caleb

656
00:30:01.599 --> 00:30:05.440
<v Speaker 6>out when he has been ineffective in big moments. It's

657
00:30:05.440 --> 00:30:07.160
<v Speaker 6>hard to be the leader when you're on the bench,

658
00:30:07.279 --> 00:30:10.400
<v Speaker 6>right you'd expect that leader to be on the floor.

659
00:30:11.559 --> 00:30:14.480
<v Speaker 6>So I do think there is potentially a void there

660
00:30:14.559 --> 00:30:18.400
<v Speaker 6>from the traditional leadership role. I think that's a very

661
00:30:18.480 --> 00:30:22.240
<v Speaker 6>viable question in what the end of January here is

662
00:30:22.279 --> 00:30:26.680
<v Speaker 6>still searching for combinations and rotations and who is the

663
00:30:26.839 --> 00:30:29.480
<v Speaker 6>on court leader. I don't know if there's a defined

664
00:30:29.559 --> 00:30:31.319
<v Speaker 6>one from my mind either.

665
00:30:31.519 --> 00:30:32.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, no, we asked go ahead.

666
00:30:32.880 --> 00:30:33.000
<v Speaker 6>No.

667
00:30:33.039 --> 00:30:34.160
<v Speaker 4>I was just going to say we were having that

668
00:30:34.200 --> 00:30:36.440
<v Speaker 4>conversation because I think, you know, you're looking at the

669
00:30:36.480 --> 00:30:38.680
<v Speaker 4>breakdown the last five minutes of games with us right

670
00:30:38.720 --> 00:30:40.960
<v Speaker 4>now and without I think there is a lack of

671
00:30:41.039 --> 00:30:44.880
<v Speaker 4>leadership or a leader on the court that maybe disrupts

672
00:30:44.880 --> 00:30:46.720
<v Speaker 4>that a little bit and says, Okay, give me the ball,

673
00:30:46.960 --> 00:30:48.759
<v Speaker 4>get out of the way, we'll figure it out. And

674
00:30:48.960 --> 00:30:51.720
<v Speaker 4>when you lack that, things tend to speed up on you.

675
00:30:51.839 --> 00:30:55.559
<v Speaker 6>Right, Yeah, and at least leading by example if anything. Right,

676
00:30:55.599 --> 00:30:58.119
<v Speaker 6>let's look at last year's group. I wouldn't say Pela

677
00:30:58.200 --> 00:31:01.319
<v Speaker 6>Larson was an overtly vocal guy, but he was fiery,

678
00:31:01.880 --> 00:31:04.359
<v Speaker 6>He had passion. He kind of took guys by the

679
00:31:04.480 --> 00:31:08.480
<v Speaker 6>jersey when crunch time hit. Keisha Johnson had been through

680
00:31:08.519 --> 00:31:12.119
<v Speaker 6>the fire, so he was a leader because he was

681
00:31:12.200 --> 00:31:16.200
<v Speaker 6>tested and people knew it. Even Umar Ballo. I think,

682
00:31:16.359 --> 00:31:18.799
<v Speaker 6>you know, we can have a whole other segment on

683
00:31:18.839 --> 00:31:21.160
<v Speaker 6>where Umar's at in his career right now and all

684
00:31:21.200 --> 00:31:23.599
<v Speaker 6>of that. We won't go there, but I think those

685
00:31:23.680 --> 00:31:27.720
<v Speaker 6>three guys had been through, you know, many many trials

686
00:31:27.720 --> 00:31:31.799
<v Speaker 6>as college basketball players. Who's stepping into that role this year.

687
00:31:31.920 --> 00:31:35.480
<v Speaker 6>I think you could argue there's there's a gap in

688
00:31:35.759 --> 00:31:38.279
<v Speaker 6>that role from last year to this year, just in

689
00:31:38.319 --> 00:31:39.519
<v Speaker 6>a comparison standpoint.

690
00:31:39.720 --> 00:31:42.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, you've been around almost as long as

691
00:31:42.400 --> 00:31:45.039
<v Speaker 2>I have and covered a lot of games and teams.

692
00:31:46.079 --> 00:31:49.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure that this team frustrates you or whatever.

693
00:31:49.960 --> 00:31:51.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't get frustrated Ayore, because I'm not attached to

694
00:31:51.960 --> 00:31:54.720
<v Speaker 2>him like you are. But but does this team because

695
00:31:55.519 --> 00:31:57.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if it has that that level of

696
00:31:59.160 --> 00:32:00.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, we're going to be as good? Is this

697
00:32:00.960 --> 00:32:02.559
<v Speaker 2>yet or if it'll ever get there.

698
00:32:02.559 --> 00:32:03.119
<v Speaker 3>I don't know how.

699
00:32:03.000 --> 00:32:04.240
<v Speaker 2>Good this team is. It could be a six to

700
00:32:04.279 --> 00:32:07.519
<v Speaker 2>seven eight seed at best. And don't even know where

701
00:32:07.519 --> 00:32:08.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm going with this question. But do you feel the

702
00:32:09.000 --> 00:32:13.839
<v Speaker 2>same way where I have no way to identify this team?

703
00:32:13.960 --> 00:32:14.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

704
00:32:14.559 --> 00:32:17.039
<v Speaker 6>I think you're I think you're accurate in your thought

705
00:32:17.079 --> 00:32:19.920
<v Speaker 6>process of there's head scratching moments. I mean, in the

706
00:32:19.960 --> 00:32:22.680
<v Speaker 6>Texas Tech game, did we throw the ball to the

707
00:32:22.680 --> 00:32:25.400
<v Speaker 6>first row of fans two times or three times?

708
00:32:25.680 --> 00:32:27.319
<v Speaker 16>I mean that I'm even asking that.

709
00:32:27.359 --> 00:32:28.480
<v Speaker 3>Question is the point right?

710
00:32:28.640 --> 00:32:31.319
<v Speaker 6>We just literally threw the ball into the stands. No

711
00:32:31.359 --> 00:32:33.960
<v Speaker 6>one even in the in the area is that head

712
00:32:33.960 --> 00:32:37.680
<v Speaker 6>scratching on January twenty first that we're even referencing that, Yes,

713
00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:42.279
<v Speaker 6>has this team shown the ability to put their foot

714
00:32:42.319 --> 00:32:46.880
<v Speaker 6>on the throat of an opponent. No, historically, Steve, how

715
00:32:46.880 --> 00:32:49.559
<v Speaker 6>many times have we talked about the runs of death

716
00:32:50.160 --> 00:32:53.000
<v Speaker 6>Arizona goes on runs? To be honest, I don't know

717
00:32:53.160 --> 00:32:57.039
<v Speaker 6>if I can remember a lot of those runs. There's

718
00:32:57.079 --> 00:33:00.240
<v Speaker 6>been handful here and there. We've had some nice runs.

719
00:33:00.000 --> 00:33:04.160
<v Speaker 6>If not the traditional boy, Arizona is far better than

720
00:33:04.160 --> 00:33:08.559
<v Speaker 6>this opponent. When they're right, they're dominant. When this team

721
00:33:08.640 --> 00:33:12.599
<v Speaker 6>is right, they are very good. They're not dominant. I

722
00:33:12.599 --> 00:33:16.279
<v Speaker 6>don't think they're going to physically overwhelm teams with their

723
00:33:16.359 --> 00:33:20.680
<v Speaker 6>size or their quickness. But when they're right, they're very good.

724
00:33:20.839 --> 00:33:24.119
<v Speaker 6>We've seen it. They've won games that we can have

725
00:33:24.279 --> 00:33:28.319
<v Speaker 6>proven our quality wins. But I agree with you, the

726
00:33:28.519 --> 00:33:31.000
<v Speaker 6>ceiling of this team may not be what it is

727
00:33:31.519 --> 00:33:35.359
<v Speaker 6>it has been for an Arizona fans expectation coming into

728
00:33:35.359 --> 00:33:38.920
<v Speaker 6>the season, this was supposed to be chalk it up

729
00:33:39.039 --> 00:33:41.880
<v Speaker 6>another one, two or three seed in the NCAA tournament

730
00:33:42.279 --> 00:33:46.119
<v Speaker 6>because of the perceived talent and the physical nature and

731
00:33:46.200 --> 00:33:51.599
<v Speaker 6>the holes that everybody plugged well, unfortunately, the individuals and

732
00:33:51.720 --> 00:33:56.079
<v Speaker 6>the collection has not come together. And will it? Is

733
00:33:56.119 --> 00:33:58.200
<v Speaker 6>there enough time, Blake, you asked it earlier on the

734
00:33:58.240 --> 00:34:00.240
<v Speaker 6>leadership question and on some of the things. There are

735
00:34:00.279 --> 00:34:04.440
<v Speaker 6>enough time in the season to generate that to garner it.

736
00:34:04.759 --> 00:34:07.519
<v Speaker 6>I do think so, because college basketball is it's a

737
00:34:07.559 --> 00:34:11.920
<v Speaker 6>finicky thing, you know this, Steve momentums finicky. When you

738
00:34:11.960 --> 00:34:15.280
<v Speaker 6>get on a role in college basketball, it can come

739
00:34:15.320 --> 00:34:18.719
<v Speaker 6>and go quickly. And I do think there's still plenty

740
00:34:18.719 --> 00:34:21.920
<v Speaker 6>of basketball left for this team to get right more

741
00:34:21.960 --> 00:34:25.679
<v Speaker 6>often than not. But is it ceiling a one seed,

742
00:34:25.719 --> 00:34:27.960
<v Speaker 6>two seed, three seed. I don't think so. I think

743
00:34:27.960 --> 00:34:31.800
<v Speaker 6>they've demonstrated it's not in their losses. But is this

744
00:34:31.920 --> 00:34:34.239
<v Speaker 6>a team that could get hot at the right time?

745
00:34:34.400 --> 00:34:35.719
<v Speaker 3>I think so, I think.

746
00:34:35.719 --> 00:34:37.559
<v Speaker 6>And that's I guess the point you're making too.

747
00:34:37.719 --> 00:34:38.360
<v Speaker 16>I think so not.

748
00:34:38.519 --> 00:34:39.679
<v Speaker 6>I know so right.

749
00:34:39.760 --> 00:34:41.239
<v Speaker 2>Let me ask you this, because this is from one

750
00:34:41.239 --> 00:34:44.000
<v Speaker 2>of the listeners of the frequent listeners. Ask him if

751
00:34:44.000 --> 00:34:46.639
<v Speaker 2>there's any of the players that get visibly upset after losing.

752
00:34:47.079 --> 00:34:49.320
<v Speaker 2>Do they try to inspire each other when they to

753
00:34:49.320 --> 00:34:49.880
<v Speaker 2>play better?

754
00:34:51.719 --> 00:34:51.920
<v Speaker 6>Oh?

755
00:34:51.960 --> 00:34:54.760
<v Speaker 2>Absolutely, And let me tell you this, absolutely, because you've

756
00:34:54.800 --> 00:34:57.119
<v Speaker 2>seen you've seen thirty some teams. The one thing that

757
00:34:57.159 --> 00:34:59.639
<v Speaker 2>I don't think that this team has is the killer

758
00:34:59.639 --> 00:35:01.840
<v Speaker 2>in stat think of you know, extreme teams like eighty

759
00:35:01.880 --> 00:35:03.840
<v Speaker 2>eight who just wanted to show up and kick the

760
00:35:03.840 --> 00:35:06.599
<v Speaker 2>crap out of you, the ninety fours of the ninety eight.

761
00:35:06.760 --> 00:35:08.360
<v Speaker 2>You know what I'm saying, where they show up and says,

762
00:35:08.440 --> 00:35:12.199
<v Speaker 2>let's just for fun, beat the crap out of them.

763
00:35:12.400 --> 00:35:15.239
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, no, I agree. You know what's interesting with that comment.

764
00:35:15.280 --> 00:35:17.599
<v Speaker 6>I think there's an over and this is not anything

765
00:35:17.639 --> 00:35:21.000
<v Speaker 6>against the listener, but I think it's overstated that because

766
00:35:21.039 --> 00:35:25.559
<v Speaker 6>I visibly see a an athlete get mad after a loss,

767
00:35:25.599 --> 00:35:28.000
<v Speaker 6>that makes it better. I think they're going to be

768
00:35:28.000 --> 00:35:31.280
<v Speaker 6>better for it. Well, that's a slippery slope. When Seline

769
00:35:31.280 --> 00:35:34.119
<v Speaker 6>Stademayer missed a shot, he got visibly mad, and how

770
00:35:34.119 --> 00:35:36.880
<v Speaker 6>did the fans react to that? They thought that was wrong.

771
00:35:36.960 --> 00:35:41.079
<v Speaker 6>So it's a slippery slope. I get the listener's question, though, right,

772
00:35:41.480 --> 00:35:45.920
<v Speaker 6>do they care enough about losing in the era that

773
00:35:45.960 --> 00:35:50.320
<v Speaker 6>we're in is it's a viable question, and I transfer portal.

774
00:35:50.400 --> 00:35:52.480
<v Speaker 6>I can just leave whenever I want. I can go

775
00:35:52.559 --> 00:35:56.039
<v Speaker 6>get paid. I'm getting paid more now than I might

776
00:35:56.119 --> 00:35:59.760
<v Speaker 6>get paid in an overseas contract in yesteryear. Right, So

777
00:36:00.239 --> 00:36:02.920
<v Speaker 6>is there a perception of do I care enough because

778
00:36:03.239 --> 00:36:05.800
<v Speaker 6>I'm transient. I just moved here, I just got here.

779
00:36:05.840 --> 00:36:08.599
<v Speaker 6>Do I know the history of Arizona basketball as a

780
00:36:08.599 --> 00:36:12.519
<v Speaker 6>brand new player? Do I care enough to do whatever

781
00:36:12.559 --> 00:36:16.519
<v Speaker 6>it takes? Having been around these guys? They care? Having

782
00:36:16.599 --> 00:36:18.639
<v Speaker 6>been around them. I was in the Bahamas with them.

783
00:36:18.639 --> 00:36:20.719
<v Speaker 6>I was at the Battle for Atlantis. I was in

784
00:36:20.760 --> 00:36:24.440
<v Speaker 6>the breakfast room the day after they lost to Oklahoma

785
00:36:24.519 --> 00:36:28.719
<v Speaker 6>preparing for West Virginia. Right, I'm not patting myself on

786
00:36:28.760 --> 00:36:30.599
<v Speaker 6>the back, but you have me on the air because

787
00:36:30.639 --> 00:36:32.440
<v Speaker 6>I can give you this type of insight.

788
00:36:33.119 --> 00:36:34.239
<v Speaker 3>They care.

789
00:36:34.719 --> 00:36:37.440
<v Speaker 6>I walked in the breakfast room an hour before breakfast,

790
00:36:37.440 --> 00:36:40.320
<v Speaker 6>and every single coach was already in the room and

791
00:36:40.360 --> 00:36:43.360
<v Speaker 6>they were knee deep in discussion. Right. This was a

792
00:36:43.400 --> 00:36:46.760
<v Speaker 6>coaching staff that didn't sleep, and these were players that

793
00:36:46.880 --> 00:36:50.079
<v Speaker 6>got there and were dialed in. They were upset and

794
00:36:50.199 --> 00:36:55.239
<v Speaker 6>leaned in. So I would not question this team's air

795
00:36:55.719 --> 00:36:59.239
<v Speaker 6>and passion for the game of basketball and for Arizona basketball.

796
00:36:59.280 --> 00:37:02.760
<v Speaker 6>I saw it first, and they walked away with great

797
00:37:02.840 --> 00:37:06.800
<v Speaker 6>disappointment in the Bahamas when I was behind closed doors, right,

798
00:37:06.880 --> 00:37:10.199
<v Speaker 6>that's where you see what really matters. I don't care

799
00:37:10.239 --> 00:37:13.199
<v Speaker 6>if you're crying after the game on the court. Who

800
00:37:13.280 --> 00:37:15.400
<v Speaker 6>cares that? To me? That's overblown.

801
00:37:15.840 --> 00:37:18.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so let me throw one last question at you.

802
00:37:18.440 --> 00:37:20.719
<v Speaker 2>You know again, I'm here. You're here for that reason.

803
00:37:20.880 --> 00:37:23.079
<v Speaker 2>You have some insight that a lot of people don't have.

804
00:37:23.360 --> 00:37:25.159
<v Speaker 2>I had Brian on last week. We talked about the

805
00:37:25.199 --> 00:37:29.159
<v Speaker 2>same type of things. I've been here a long time historically,

806
00:37:29.239 --> 00:37:32.880
<v Speaker 2>and probably ninety nine percent of the time, when Arizona

807
00:37:32.960 --> 00:37:35.800
<v Speaker 2>has something at stake, they're not good enough, they need

808
00:37:35.840 --> 00:37:38.960
<v Speaker 2>to prove something. It's the you know, us against the world.

809
00:37:39.039 --> 00:37:41.800
<v Speaker 2>They always show up Baylor. He tested them against Baylor.

810
00:37:41.840 --> 00:37:44.480
<v Speaker 2>They came back and played some good basketball. But when

811
00:37:44.480 --> 00:37:46.360
<v Speaker 2>it's you know, just one of those games, they don't

812
00:37:46.360 --> 00:37:48.280
<v Speaker 2>show up. I don't think I'm speaking out of turn.

813
00:37:48.559 --> 00:37:51.519
<v Speaker 2>You've seen it up next in the next two to

814
00:37:51.519 --> 00:37:54.719
<v Speaker 2>three weeks, they're gonna have some big, huge games. I

815
00:37:54.760 --> 00:37:56.199
<v Speaker 2>think they'll show up for those games.

816
00:37:57.440 --> 00:38:00.519
<v Speaker 6>I think that's a great point, Steve. When Za is

817
00:38:00.559 --> 00:38:04.960
<v Speaker 6>playing with house money, When nineteen to twenty four year

818
00:38:05.000 --> 00:38:08.880
<v Speaker 6>olds are playing with house money, right, not just Arizona

819
00:38:09.440 --> 00:38:13.480
<v Speaker 6>get do you get their best Iowa State at West Virginia.

820
00:38:13.920 --> 00:38:16.639
<v Speaker 6>These guys lost to Arizona at home by twenty We

821
00:38:16.760 --> 00:38:17.599
<v Speaker 6>got this right?

822
00:38:17.639 --> 00:38:18.199
<v Speaker 3>Do you don't think?

823
00:38:18.280 --> 00:38:20.840
<v Speaker 6>I mean, the same questions are being asked in names Iowa.

824
00:38:21.159 --> 00:38:23.840
<v Speaker 6>How in the world did Iowa State go into West

825
00:38:23.880 --> 00:38:26.880
<v Speaker 6>Virginia and lose? Those guys are bums. They were playing

826
00:38:26.920 --> 00:38:29.280
<v Speaker 6>without Tucker DeVries, they were down a man, and they

827
00:38:29.320 --> 00:38:31.679
<v Speaker 6>still be this. Come on, what's wrong with us? They're

828
00:38:31.719 --> 00:38:36.519
<v Speaker 6>asking the same questions. But I do see your historical

829
00:38:36.559 --> 00:38:38.760
<v Speaker 6>reference point, and I think this team is no different,

830
00:38:39.440 --> 00:38:43.079
<v Speaker 6>primarily because you're dealing with young kids here relative to

831
00:38:43.119 --> 00:38:44.840
<v Speaker 6>you and I, Steve, who are quite a bit older

832
00:38:44.840 --> 00:38:50.920
<v Speaker 6>than these young kids. Is there wasn't Their character wasn't

833
00:38:51.000 --> 00:38:55.400
<v Speaker 6>questioned in the Texas Tech game. They weren't battling from

834
00:38:55.679 --> 00:38:59.519
<v Speaker 6>coming off of a loss. Look at Tommy Lloyd's revenge games.

835
00:38:59.320 --> 00:39:02.760
<v Speaker 6>He's in revenge games in the same season in the

836
00:39:02.800 --> 00:39:05.519
<v Speaker 6>game right after a loss right West Virginia is the

837
00:39:05.559 --> 00:39:09.719
<v Speaker 6>exact example to use there. So Texas Tech was kind

838
00:39:09.760 --> 00:39:12.639
<v Speaker 6>of a throwaway game relatively speaking. They had lost three

839
00:39:12.679 --> 00:39:14.719
<v Speaker 6>games at home, they had won games on the road.

840
00:39:14.800 --> 00:39:15.880
<v Speaker 6>These guys aren't that good.

841
00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:16.719
<v Speaker 16>That's a perception.

842
00:39:16.960 --> 00:39:19.239
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, and we you and I have seen that with

843
00:39:19.320 --> 00:39:23.719
<v Speaker 6>the college athlete. I think their characters tested going tonight

844
00:39:23.760 --> 00:39:26.039
<v Speaker 6>against Oklahoma State. Do they want to get swept on

845
00:39:26.079 --> 00:39:29.039
<v Speaker 6>the road against what's perceived to be one of the

846
00:39:29.039 --> 00:39:31.559
<v Speaker 6>bottom two or three teams in the conference. I think

847
00:39:31.599 --> 00:39:34.519
<v Speaker 6>they will rise to that occasion. And you're right, Iowa

848
00:39:34.599 --> 00:39:37.480
<v Speaker 6>States coming around the corner, Houston's coming around the corner.

849
00:39:37.960 --> 00:39:40.360
<v Speaker 6>I think they will rise to the occasion more often

850
00:39:40.400 --> 00:39:42.880
<v Speaker 6>than not saying they're going to beat those teams. I

851
00:39:42.920 --> 00:39:45.320
<v Speaker 6>think they'll play better though in those games.

852
00:39:45.480 --> 00:39:47.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no, I totally agree with you. We've seen it.

853
00:39:47.599 --> 00:39:50.199
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's like the Death and Texas and the

854
00:39:50.239 --> 00:39:54.079
<v Speaker 2>Sunrise and Tucson. It happens for whatever reason it happens.

855
00:39:54.079 --> 00:39:56.000
<v Speaker 16>Tell you, how about this that once that before you

856
00:39:56.079 --> 00:39:56.559
<v Speaker 16>let me go.

857
00:39:57.079 --> 00:40:00.840
<v Speaker 6>Arizona's played Oklahoma State only three times in its history.

858
00:40:01.159 --> 00:40:03.519
<v Speaker 6>There's only a handful of people on the planet that

859
00:40:03.559 --> 00:40:05.960
<v Speaker 6>were at all three games, and you're talking to one

860
00:40:06.039 --> 00:40:10.000
<v Speaker 6>of them. Well, just so you know, Brian Jeffries was

861
00:40:10.000 --> 00:40:13.679
<v Speaker 6>there for sure. But when you especially when you throw in.

862
00:40:13.840 --> 00:40:16.400
<v Speaker 6>One game was in Phoenix, one game was in Chicago,

863
00:40:16.480 --> 00:40:18.719
<v Speaker 6>and the other game was in Anchorage, Alas.

864
00:40:18.920 --> 00:40:20.559
<v Speaker 2>I was there I was there, so I was I

865
00:40:20.599 --> 00:40:23.159
<v Speaker 2>saw we were there. I was there because you might

866
00:40:23.199 --> 00:40:25.400
<v Speaker 2>be one of them big Country, Big Country, right.

867
00:40:25.840 --> 00:40:25.960
<v Speaker 6>Uh.

868
00:40:26.039 --> 00:40:28.679
<v Speaker 2>They lost Big Country. The lost Minnesota. And then the

869
00:40:28.960 --> 00:40:31.639
<v Speaker 2>second one, the Phoenix game. Tell me who, I can't

870
00:40:31.679 --> 00:40:34.159
<v Speaker 2>remember that game ninety four?

871
00:40:34.239 --> 00:40:36.800
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, that was that was an America West Arena.

872
00:40:36.679 --> 00:40:39.079
<v Speaker 2>America wes Okay. And then of course the the the

873
00:40:39.159 --> 00:40:39.840
<v Speaker 2>Rosemund game.

874
00:40:41.079 --> 00:40:41.760
<v Speaker 16>We know that one.

875
00:40:41.840 --> 00:40:44.199
<v Speaker 6>Unfortunately we're not talking about the game after that. We're

876
00:40:44.199 --> 00:40:46.920
<v Speaker 6>talking about the win at at Rosemont.

877
00:40:47.599 --> 00:40:50.320
<v Speaker 3>Well, thank you Ryan, of course, great stuff, Thank you.

878
00:40:50.280 --> 00:40:52.639
<v Speaker 6>Man, Thanks you guys, thanks for gat having me on.

879
00:40:52.599 --> 00:40:55.159
<v Speaker 2>Great stuff, great stuff. I love you because he's seen it,

880
00:40:55.199 --> 00:40:57.760
<v Speaker 2>he's seen and and you know this. We'll talk about

881
00:40:57.760 --> 00:41:00.199
<v Speaker 2>this on those side. Let's not forget just the the

882
00:41:00.199 --> 00:41:03.079
<v Speaker 2>the human nature of the game. You can't do it, man,

883
00:41:03.159 --> 00:41:05.199
<v Speaker 2>you can't do it, and I know you can't do it.

884
00:41:05.199 --> 00:41:06.480
<v Speaker 2>And guess what you do?

885
00:41:06.400 --> 00:41:07.119
<v Speaker 3>Do you do it?

886
00:41:07.199 --> 00:41:10.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because you've been tested mentally not physically. You've been tested.

887
00:41:10.599 --> 00:41:12.519
<v Speaker 2>You can't do it, man, I know you can't, and

888
00:41:12.559 --> 00:41:14.079
<v Speaker 2>then you prove them wrong.

889
00:41:14.199 --> 00:41:14.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

890
00:41:14.400 --> 00:41:16.599
<v Speaker 4>And you've got great access along with yourself to these

891
00:41:16.599 --> 00:41:18.599
<v Speaker 4>people that are around these teams on a deeper connection

892
00:41:18.679 --> 00:41:21.679
<v Speaker 4>so they can understand. That's a great question by the

893
00:41:22.559 --> 00:41:24.960
<v Speaker 4>listener that came to you. But and he said he

894
00:41:25.039 --> 00:41:27.639

977
00:45:12.320 --> 00:45:13.840
<v Speaker 3>And I'll just use you as an example.

978
00:45:13.880 --> 00:45:15.960
<v Speaker 2>How many times did you go into a game that

979
00:45:15.960 --> 00:45:18.079
<v Speaker 2>no one expected you to win?

980
00:45:18.480 --> 00:45:22.119
<v Speaker 4>A new one percentage wise? Yeah, I mean probably. I

981
00:45:22.159 --> 00:45:27.599
<v Speaker 4>mean it's difficult to say. I mean it happened, ye five.

982
00:45:27.760 --> 00:45:31.039
<v Speaker 2>And the games that you won that no one thought

983
00:45:31.239 --> 00:45:33.360
<v Speaker 2>you'd win, is it the same question?

984
00:45:33.760 --> 00:45:35.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's similar. I get what you're saying, though.

985
00:45:35.679 --> 00:45:39.159
<v Speaker 2>Because like we were saying with Arizona, I'll use it.

986
00:45:39.320 --> 00:45:42.440
<v Speaker 2>Use this as an example, Santa Clara. But it was

987
00:45:42.599 --> 00:45:46.079
<v Speaker 2>East Tennessee State to me, and no one really talks about.

988
00:45:46.280 --> 00:45:48.760
<v Speaker 2>They were over confident, they show up And how else

989
00:45:48.760 --> 00:45:49.760
<v Speaker 2>do you explain these things?

990
00:45:49.960 --> 00:45:51.639
<v Speaker 3>You're playing down to your competition.

991
00:45:51.280 --> 00:45:54.920
<v Speaker 2>Santa Clara, Same damn thing. How do you beat Kentucky?

992
00:45:54.920 --> 00:45:57.360
<v Speaker 2>How do you beat North Carolina no one thought you can?

993
00:45:57.719 --> 00:46:00.920
<v Speaker 2>Or is Arizona show up when they you can't? Yeah,

994
00:46:01.079 --> 00:46:02.920
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna tell Richard, You're gonna tell these guys they

995
00:46:02.920 --> 00:46:07.679
<v Speaker 2>can't win. And Arizona does this all the time. Princeton Princeton.

996
00:46:09.039 --> 00:46:11.880
<v Speaker 2>It's Princeton to show up and play. They couldn't do it.

997
00:46:11.880 --> 00:46:13.840
<v Speaker 2>They had a twelve point lead and lost it. I mean,

998
00:46:13.880 --> 00:46:16.480
<v Speaker 2>it's confidence in this place. It's thinking that you're better

999
00:46:16.480 --> 00:46:18.440
<v Speaker 2>than you are and you're really not because the other

1000
00:46:18.480 --> 00:46:21.039
<v Speaker 2>team wants to show you they're not that good.

1001
00:46:21.440 --> 00:46:23.639
<v Speaker 3>I mean, you're I'm talking to a perfect example.

1002
00:46:23.679 --> 00:46:25.920
<v Speaker 2>Because you're an athlete and you're a coach, you have

1003
00:46:26.000 --> 00:46:27.760
<v Speaker 2>to as a coach, have to tell them you have

1004
00:46:27.800 --> 00:46:30.280
<v Speaker 2>to guard against this. And then how do you tell

1005
00:46:30.360 --> 00:46:34.000
<v Speaker 2>them that even though in their mind they're already predetermined

1006
00:46:34.360 --> 00:46:36.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm better than them. I don't have to really play hard.

1007
00:46:36.960 --> 00:46:38.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean sometimes you have to do with smoke

1008
00:46:38.440 --> 00:46:40.920
<v Speaker 4>and mirrors, right, So it's gonna take multiple, multiple areas

1009
00:46:40.920 --> 00:46:41.960
<v Speaker 4>where you kind of have to do that, and you

1010
00:46:41.960 --> 00:46:43.920
<v Speaker 4>also have to I mean, listen to me. For some

1011
00:46:44.000 --> 00:46:45.519
<v Speaker 4>times in my life, I had to lie to myself

1012
00:46:45.559 --> 00:46:47.360
<v Speaker 4>that I was better than what I was. So I

1013
00:46:47.360 --> 00:46:49.679
<v Speaker 4>wouldn't look at stats, I wouldn't look at you know,

1014
00:46:50.280 --> 00:46:52.000
<v Speaker 4>spend rate. We didn't have that really when I was

1015
00:46:52.039 --> 00:46:55.320
<v Speaker 4>coming in, but I but mentally, I was never afraid

1016
00:46:55.360 --> 00:46:57.599
<v Speaker 4>to be put in that situation. And I think as

1017
00:46:57.599 --> 00:46:59.920
<v Speaker 4>an athlete. That's where that there has to be a

1018
00:47:00.079 --> 00:47:03.119
<v Speaker 4>lack of fear to some degree to what to fail

1019
00:47:03.239 --> 00:47:05.159
<v Speaker 4>or to what to fail. You can't eat once that

1020
00:47:05.280 --> 00:47:07.159
<v Speaker 4>that eats inside you, and once you get and you

1021
00:47:07.159 --> 00:47:08.679
<v Speaker 4>can look at love a little bit like I think,

1022
00:47:08.760 --> 00:47:11.119
<v Speaker 4>there's that has creeped in and crept in a little bit.

1023
00:47:11.400 --> 00:47:14.039
<v Speaker 4>And once that mentality sets in, man, that is difficult

1024
00:47:14.079 --> 00:47:14.519
<v Speaker 4>get rid of.

1025
00:47:14.800 --> 00:47:17.400
<v Speaker 2>You know how, I agree with you. There too many,

1026
00:47:17.519 --> 00:47:20.159
<v Speaker 2>it's too big of a sample size. Yeah, because okay,

1027
00:47:20.199 --> 00:47:22.320
<v Speaker 2>one game, two games, it's one off, too off.

1028
00:47:22.599 --> 00:47:24.760
<v Speaker 3>But now you're going a lot of games off. You're

1029
00:47:24.760 --> 00:47:28.239
<v Speaker 3>thinking there's something going on multiple multiple time, all American,

1030
00:47:28.320 --> 00:47:29.239
<v Speaker 3>right at.

1031
00:47:29.239 --> 00:47:31.719
<v Speaker 2>Least one time you have two times and you're thinking, okay,

1032
00:47:31.960 --> 00:47:35.519
<v Speaker 2>that's just a one off to it's too many things

1033
00:47:35.559 --> 00:47:37.760
<v Speaker 2>that have gone like this for too long. Yeah, it's

1034
00:47:37.840 --> 00:47:41.519
<v Speaker 2>really strange. Listen, go back to your your situation with

1035
00:47:41.559 --> 00:47:44.679
<v Speaker 2>the World Baseball Classic. You got almost a little more

<v Speaker 2>And you talked about Ray and talk about road runners.

1064
00:48:48.880 --> 00:48:51.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean you've and you guys, uh and you talked

1065
00:48:51.840 --> 00:48:53.400
<v Speaker 2>about this when I think the first time you were

1066
00:48:53.400 --> 00:48:57.199
<v Speaker 2>on the show, how the community kind of all intermingles

1067
00:48:57.239 --> 00:48:59.960
<v Speaker 2>with itself to promote the city and the sports event.

1068
00:49:00.599 --> 00:49:01.800
<v Speaker 3>Okay, here's a perfect example.

1069
00:49:01.880 --> 00:49:03.639
<v Speaker 4>Last week we have an all hands meeting, so we

1070
00:49:03.679 --> 00:49:05.760
<v Speaker 4>had all the people that are working on the WBC

1071
00:49:05.840 --> 00:49:08.679
<v Speaker 4>at the same table. There's twenty four people and nine

1072
00:49:08.719 --> 00:49:11.599
<v Speaker 4>different entities working on one thing. And it's just for

1073
00:49:11.679 --> 00:49:14.159
<v Speaker 4>the greater good of the community that we support. That's

1074
00:49:14.519 --> 00:49:17.199
<v Speaker 4>that's important that we continue that. And I'm not going

1075
00:49:17.239 --> 00:49:19.239
<v Speaker 4>to say it to your face. I'll say in the mic,

1076
00:49:19.280 --> 00:49:21.480
<v Speaker 4>don't look at my lips. The momentum that we've created

1077
00:49:21.519 --> 00:49:24.800
<v Speaker 4>so far and the partnerships that we've created, because everybody

1078
00:49:24.800 --> 00:49:27.840
<v Speaker 4>at the table wants something better for the community that

1079
00:49:27.880 --> 00:49:28.440
<v Speaker 4>we represent.

1080
00:49:29.119 --> 00:49:32.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, no, no, And that's that makes two song, two songs.

1081
00:49:32.320 --> 00:49:34.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's who we are, right, It creates our identity,

1082
00:49:34.480 --> 00:49:36.159
<v Speaker 4>our soul, right, and that's what we have. We were

1083
00:49:36.199 --> 00:49:38.519
<v Speaker 4>just talking about another city up north that maybe doesn't

1084
00:49:38.559 --> 00:49:39.800
<v Speaker 4>have a soul.

1085
00:49:39.639 --> 00:49:43.320
<v Speaker 2>Well because it's too it's too big. This is I

1086
00:49:43.360 --> 00:49:46.239
<v Speaker 2>get grief by calling this Jay does, at least with me.

1087
00:49:46.840 --> 00:49:48.880
<v Speaker 2>It's a a very type of place. I don't think

1088
00:49:48.880 --> 00:49:51.039
<v Speaker 2>you have to explain that too long because people, the

1089
00:49:51.039 --> 00:49:54.000
<v Speaker 2>neighbors help the neighbors. At least it looks like that visibly,

1090
00:49:54.400 --> 00:49:57.679
<v Speaker 2>visually and in actions too, because it's a giving. You know,

1091
00:49:57.880 --> 00:50:02.039
<v Speaker 2>someone's down to help without complaining, and that's what you

1092
00:50:02.079 --> 00:50:02.599
<v Speaker 2>guys have done.

1093
00:50:02.679 --> 00:50:05.159
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I've done that personally multiple times with the people

1094
00:50:05.159 --> 00:50:06.320
<v Speaker 4>that are in my life, gone to them and been

1095
00:50:06.400 --> 00:50:10.079
<v Speaker 4>vulnerable and just said, listen, I need some help, I

1096
00:50:10.119 --> 00:50:11.800
<v Speaker 4>need some guidance here. And I think that's what two sons,

1097
00:50:12.000 --> 00:50:14.039
<v Speaker 4>two sons, a million and a half people town, right,

1098
00:50:14.360 --> 00:50:16.559
<v Speaker 4>it's almost we treat ourselves almost like a rural area,

1099
00:50:16.599 --> 00:50:19.960
<v Speaker 4>and our rural areas are great, but we're metropolis when

1100
00:50:20.000 --> 00:50:23.000
<v Speaker 4>it comes to that. So before I forget March second
