Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Glad to have you with us on this Friday as
- 0:04Speaker 1: we get you ready for the weekend college basketball Tonight,
- 0:07Speaker 1: you're going to hear from Loghorn's head coach Rodney Terry
- 0:09Speaker 1: coming up in a few minutes from his Zoom media
- 0:12Speaker 1: availability yesterday, So you're going to hear from that, and
- 0:17Speaker 1: then we'll hear some from Sark as well from last
- 0:21Speaker 1: night's edition of log Worn Weekly talking about the Florida Gators.
- 0:24Speaker 1: So there's some football, some basketball to discuss. I don't
- 0:27Speaker 1: know if you saw this, cam. Jay Billis has put
- 0:31Speaker 1: out his top one hundred teams, is it no, I guess,
- 0:36Speaker 1: top sixty eight teams. Yeah, because it's a sixty eight
- 0:41Speaker 1: NCAA tournament field. So Jay billisyspat you like ja Billis?
- 0:45Speaker 2: Yeah, he's fine. Yeah.
- 0:48Speaker 1: So he's got his top sixty eight NCAA teams, meaning
- 0:56Speaker 1: if the tournament were to start today, he would have
- 1:01Speaker 1: these sixty eight teams in the NCAA tournament field.
- 1:05Speaker 2: So just so you'll know, you know kind of where things.
- 1:09Speaker 1: Are, because I've had some people ask me and say,
- 1:10Speaker 1: I'm not quite sure what to make of this particular
- 1:14Speaker 1: Texas team, where they are, what.
- 1:16Speaker 2: They might be able to do that sort of thing.
- 1:18Speaker 1: Jay Billis thinks, so the twenty second best team in
- 1:20Speaker 1: the country, so he's got them number twenty two. Now,
- 1:23Speaker 1: did they play like number twenty two in the country
- 1:25Speaker 1: the other night? No, but they didn't have Tremon Mark,
- 1:29Speaker 1: and you're gonna hear Rodney Terry say they may not
- 1:31Speaker 1: have him for a little bit. I think the word
- 1:35Speaker 1: he used was indefinitely, although Tremon yesterday tweeted I'm not
- 1:39Speaker 1: out indefinitely and then deleted it and then deleted after that.
- 1:44Speaker 1: So but Jay Billis wrote of the long Horns. The
- 1:47Speaker 1: season got off to a tough start for the Longhorns
- 1:49Speaker 1: with an eighty to seventy two loss to Ohio State
- 1:51Speaker 1: in Las Vegas, but given the off season turnover, a
- 1:55Speaker 1: learning curve could be expected. Coach Rodney Terry went aggressive
- 1:59Speaker 1: in the transfer portal, adding Jordan Pope from Oregon State,
- 2:02Speaker 1: Tremon Mark from Arkansas, Arthur Calumba from Kansas State, and
- 2:05Speaker 1: the Indiana State duo of Jason Kent and Julian Larry.
- 2:08Speaker 1: Mix in top five recruit and elite scorer Trey Johnson,
- 2:11Speaker 1: and the Longhorns have plenty of pieces now. Terry just
- 2:14Speaker 1: needs to make them all fit. I kind of agree
- 2:18Speaker 1: with that, you know, and and I like Jay Bill.
- 2:21Speaker 1: I don't always agree with everything Jay Sometimes I see,
- 2:26Speaker 1: if you follow me on this, he can get a
- 2:29Speaker 1: little bit to college basketball what Bob Costas could get
- 2:35Speaker 1: to baseball.
- 2:35Speaker 2: On football, little preachy a little bit, just did you
- 2:39Speaker 2: know a little bit about that?
- 2:41Speaker 1: But when it comes to just analyzing the teams and
- 2:44Speaker 1: not talking about the state of the game and all
- 2:46Speaker 1: that other kind of stuff, I.
- 2:48Speaker 2: Think he's pretty good at it. I think he's not
- 2:50Speaker 2: bad at it.
- 2:51Speaker 1: So anyway, so there's some thoughts from Jay Billis on that.
- 2:54Speaker 1: All right, So coming up, we're gonna hear from Long
- 2:57Speaker 1: Horne's head coach, Rodney Terry. This is from the Zoom
- 3:00Speaker 1: media availability from yesterday, so we'll bring it to you
- 3:04Speaker 1: in its entirety. You even hear the reporters questions coming up, so.
- 3:07Speaker 2: Stay with us.
- 3:08Speaker 1: We'll continue on this Friday afternoon on sports Radio AM
- 3:10Speaker 1: thirteen under the zone of the iHeartRadio app.
