• 0:53
  Speaker 6: studio because of all the bodies we've got in here,
• 0:55
  Speaker 6: certainly will be by Sunday, Yeah for sure. All right,
• 0:58
  Speaker 6: let's talk to them at CEAA basketball.
• 1:00
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:01
  Speaker 8: I guess we'll start off by reminding everybody that the
• 1:04
  Speaker 8: game tomorrow was moved up to noon.
• 1:06
  Speaker 6: And why would they do that? What's going on that
• 1:08
  Speaker 6: would cause that?
• 1:09
  Speaker 7: Who could?
• 1:09
  Speaker 6: Yes? Right, if I get one more weather alert, man,
• 1:12
  Speaker 6: I'm going to go nuts. Wow.
• 1:13
  Speaker 7: Just a holdout for a couple more days.
• 1:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah, we'll hopefully be good. So game time change for
• 1:18
  Speaker 6: game time change.
• 1:19
  Speaker 8: We'll hear from Bucky previewing that game here in just
• 1:21
  Speaker 8: a couple of minutes. Around college basketball though, because there's
• 1:25
  Speaker 8: been some other big news this week, mainly concerning the
• 1:28
  Speaker 8: University of Alabama. Who is just the latest university that
• 1:32
  Speaker 8: is going to be in stating a G League player
• 1:34
  Speaker 8: to their team.
• 1:36
  Speaker 6: A G League player. So it was a guy left school,
• 1:39
  Speaker 6: signed and now he's coming back. Sure did?
• 1:42
  Speaker 9: He couldn't cut it, so you decided I got to
• 1:44
  Speaker 9: come back to college.
• 1:45
  Speaker 8: Yeah, Charles Bettiaco. That came out a couple of days ago.
• 1:49
  Speaker 8: He sued the NCAA after Alabama made an initial request
• 1:54
  Speaker 8: for eligibility that of course got denied because the guy
• 1:57
  Speaker 8: went pro.
• 1:58
  Speaker 7: So he sued a.
• 2:00
  Speaker 8: Judge in Alabama, who, by the way, I should mention
• 2:03
  Speaker 8: that this judge is a six figure Alabama booster.
• 2:07
  Speaker 6: Okay, co option and college sports who would have thought.
• 2:11
  Speaker 8: Yeah, So obviously, this judge granted Bettiaco a ten day
• 2:16
  Speaker 8: restraining order that grants him eligibility. I believe he's due
• 2:20
  Speaker 8: for another appearance or whatever next week to another hear
• 2:24
  Speaker 8: and codifyd this for the rest of the season. But
• 2:27
  Speaker 8: he is going to play this weekend for Alabama's game
• 2:30
  Speaker 8: against Tennessee and presumably for the rest of the season.
• 2:35
  Speaker 6: Okay, this is kind of ridiculous, Riley, you got thoughts
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: on this.
• 2:38
  Speaker 9: My whole take is, if you decided to go pro,
• 2:41
  Speaker 9: I'm sorry, you don't get to decide just because you
• 2:43
  Speaker 9: can't cut it at the next level that you need
• 2:45
  Speaker 9: to come back, so you could try and earn money
• 2:47
  Speaker 9: and then try and you've already you've already went to
• 2:50
  Speaker 9: the draft. You can't go into another draft. So what
• 2:52
  Speaker 9: do you think You're gonna play good in college at
• 2:54
  Speaker 9: a lower and slower paced level and then all of
• 2:56
  Speaker 9: a sudden you're gonna go into the pro league and
• 2:57
  Speaker 9: be like, oh, you played good for two more years
• 2:59
  Speaker 9: in college, so yeah, now we want you to play
• 3:01
  Speaker 9: for whatever team he decides to do it.
• 3:03
  Speaker 8: I think it's just all about the money that he's
• 3:05
  Speaker 8: going to make. More money nil money playing in college
• 3:08
  Speaker 8: than he would play get playing in the NBA.
• 3:11
  Speaker 6: Or ley make some money while you can, because it's
• 3:14
  Speaker 6: you know, it's pro prospects as we're talking about. Maybe
• 3:17
  Speaker 6: not great, but he can make some money in college.
• 3:19
  Speaker 8: And I you know what, I I don't necessarily even
• 3:22
  Speaker 8: fault him that much for that aspect of it. But
• 3:25
  Speaker 8: it is completely unfair n double A. I fought the
• 3:29
  Speaker 8: NC double A. It's completely unfair to the rest of
• 3:32
  Speaker 8: the players that are doing it the right way. And
• 3:34
  Speaker 8: it's not just this guy in Alabama. BYU currently has
• 3:38
  Speaker 8: a G leaguer on their team, and there's other teams
• 3:40
  Speaker 8: I can't name him off the top of my head
• 3:42
  Speaker 8: right now that are also playing those Baylor. Yes, So
• 3:45
  Speaker 8: it's happening around the NC double A. And I'm sure
• 3:47
  Speaker 8: he's not going to be the last one either.
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: No, And this is a horrible precedent. I mean, what
• 3:51
  Speaker 6: a can of worms that opens this up across all
• 3:54
  Speaker 6: in all the college athletics.
• 3:55
  Speaker 10: Right.
• 3:56
  Speaker 9: Well, So he was selected thirty first overall in the
• 3:59
  Speaker 9: NBA draft his year that he went into it, so
• 4:01
  Speaker 9: he was a first round pick. Yeah, but he couldn't
• 4:04
  Speaker 9: cut it. That was the whole thing.
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: Apparently he couldn't cut it as a student either, because
• 4:09
  Speaker 6: it's being reported that his GPA was at the Blue
• 4:11
  Speaker 6: Tarski level of zero point zero.
• 4:14
  Speaker 9: I have a Carson Back moment where he's I've graduated
• 4:17
  Speaker 9: two years ago.
• 4:17
  Speaker 7: I don't do college.
• 4:18
  Speaker 6: Yeah, this guy started college and didn't do college. But
• 4:22
  Speaker 6: sounds like some poor choices. But I don't. I'm with you, Ryan,
• 4:25
  Speaker 6: I do not blame him for getting into it, just
• 4:28
  Speaker 6: just for the money if he can make the money. Now,
• 4:30
  Speaker 6: I'm quite certain that perhaps Alabama's boosters and coaches and
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: whatnot said, hey, come on back, we could use you
• 4:36
  Speaker 6: because they're not playing at the top of their game
• 4:38
  Speaker 6: this season.
• 4:38
  Speaker 8: Yeah, and the judge also made sure to put into
• 4:42
  Speaker 8: the ruling that the NCAA is not allowed to ban
• 4:45
  Speaker 8: Alabama from the postseason either, so he made sure to
• 4:49
  Speaker 8: check all the boxes with this one.
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: Across the board, aren't judicial system.
• 4:53
  Speaker 7: Can I mention he's a six figure donor.
• 4:55
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's just it's ridiculous, I mean, across the board.
• 4:58
  Speaker 6: We're not going to get into politics here on the
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: sports channel, but you guys know what I'm talking about. Yeah,
• 5:02
  Speaker 6: absolutely crazy, all right, anything else before we hear from
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: coach mc billan.
• 5:06
  Speaker 7: Now let's get into Bucky. Hear what he's got to say.
• 5:10
  Speaker 11: Just talk with Jakari. You know, when you look at
• 5:14
  Speaker 11: kind of the stretch that he's had, especially when it
• 5:17
  Speaker 11: comes to assist a turnovers, just what has made him
• 5:20
  Speaker 11: so effective in that category and just his ability to
• 5:24
  Speaker 11: facilitate the offense.
• 5:25
  Speaker 12: You know, some players play to play, some players play
• 5:28
  Speaker 12: to win. He plays to win. That's why he's won
• 5:33
  Speaker 12: everywhere he's been. The point guard position probably the most
• 5:37
  Speaker 12: impactful position as it equates to winning. There's no such
• 5:41
  Speaker 12: thing as a good point guard that doesn't have a
• 5:43
  Speaker 12: history of winning. That's kind of like what makes a
• 5:47
  Speaker 12: point guard great. They know how to win. And he's
• 5:51
  Speaker 12: won and everywhere he's been being the guy and that's
• 5:54
  Speaker 12: what makes him special. So just he plays to win
• 5:57
  Speaker 12: and so he makes winning plays.
• 5:59
  Speaker 11: He was your first transfer commit just when you guys
• 6:02
  Speaker 11: were trying to get him here.
• 6:04
  Speaker 12: Just what was it about.
• 6:05
  Speaker 11: Him that that you felt like he could have this
• 6:08
  Speaker 11: kind of impact on your offense?
• 6:10
  Speaker 12: You know, I know there's been a little adjustment just
• 6:12
  Speaker 12: going to the SEC you know, and but the same deal,
• 6:16
  Speaker 12: like if you you know, you heard of coaches recently
• 6:20
  Speaker 12: in another sport talk about that he recruits players with
• 6:24
  Speaker 12: production instead of potential. Like he's always produced everywhere he's
• 6:27
  Speaker 12: been winning wise and statistically, so you know that that
• 6:34
  Speaker 12: that unchange and he's got a the way that we
• 6:37
  Speaker 12: play if your guard de size doesn't matter as much
• 6:39
  Speaker 12: that you're wanting you too, as long as he can
• 6:41
  Speaker 12: exploit the other team's guard with full court pressure. And
• 6:44
  Speaker 12: you gotta like the right heart to do that. And
• 6:47
  Speaker 12: you know he obviously has all that with.
• 6:50
  Speaker 13: Your coaching eye. What do you see that that you'd say,
• 6:54
  Speaker 13: this is why Baggies were playing such good basketball.
• 6:57
  Speaker 12: Now that maybe you see that as a hold enough
• 7:00
  Speaker 12: people just don't see well, I think you know, we're
• 7:04
  Speaker 12: playing with maximum effort and we're playing unselfish. Thing. That's
• 7:08
  Speaker 12: really like in all sports, that's pretty much what it
• 7:11
  Speaker 12: comes down to. Like, I mean, we can overdo it,
• 7:14
  Speaker 12: but if you're playing with maximum effort and you're playing unselfish,
• 7:16
  Speaker 12: you're gonna play with a lot of confidence. And I
• 7:18
  Speaker 12: think with any team sport, it's really that like and
• 7:22
  Speaker 12: that starts in practice, like you've given everything you have
• 7:25
  Speaker 12: in practice and outwork in the competition. So we're doing
• 7:30
  Speaker 12: I think we are doing that. Our players are doing that.
• 7:33
  Speaker 12: They're they're playing hard, they're working hard in practice, and
• 7:36
  Speaker 12: they're together. It's not about them, you know. You hear
• 7:38
  Speaker 12: the saying you got to lose your individuality for the
• 7:40
  Speaker 12: sake of the team. And everybody on the team has
• 7:45
  Speaker 12: to give up something that they want to accomplish that
• 7:47
  Speaker 12: season for the sake of the team. If you're ever
• 7:49
  Speaker 12: going to have a true team like you don't have it.
• 7:51
  Speaker 12: You don't have a team till everyone does that, till
• 7:53
  Speaker 12: every player on the team gives it something they want
• 7:56
  Speaker 12: to accomplish that season individually for the sake of the team.
• 8:00
  Speaker 12: Maybe it's a player wants to start, we're going to
• 8:02
  Speaker 12: bring you out the bench. Maybe a player wants to
• 8:05
  Speaker 12: score fifteen, we need to score eight. Maybe a player
• 8:07
  Speaker 12: wants to be a shooter. We need to be a
• 8:09
  Speaker 12: screener and a rebounder. And maybe a player wants to
• 8:15
  Speaker 12: get three minutes a game, but he's got to be
• 8:17
  Speaker 12: on the scout team. And I really think this team
• 8:21
  Speaker 12: is into their roles and doing what it takes to
• 8:25
  Speaker 12: help the team first do well.
• 8:28
  Speaker 13: Is it maybe unusual or just difficult to assemble a
• 8:35
  Speaker 13: team like that when you know you're guys coming in
• 8:38
  Speaker 13: and transfer probably have ideas of what they want to do,
• 8:41
  Speaker 13: as opposed to the guys that you know, maybe developed
• 8:44
  Speaker 13: through a program over the course of three or four
• 8:48
  Speaker 13: of you.
• 8:48
  Speaker 12: There's no doubt. I mean, I think when you look
• 8:50
  Speaker 12: at college basketball right now, you don't see teams a
• 8:52
  Speaker 12: lot of teams with great identities. You don't see a
• 8:55
  Speaker 12: lot of true teams anymore unless they have retention. You know,
• 8:59
  Speaker 12: you can look at some of the good teams that
• 9:01
  Speaker 12: produced right now, those guys they have pretension. I think
• 9:03
  Speaker 12: that's what you're struggling with college basketball in general. I'm
• 9:06
  Speaker 12: not saying that we don't have some of the the
• 9:08
  Speaker 12: most talented that college basketball has ever been probably is,
• 9:12
  Speaker 12: but I'm not so sure the teams in the early
• 9:14
  Speaker 12: two thousand wouldn't run these teams, And I really mean that,
• 9:17
  Speaker 12: because you have players that were part of a program
• 9:20
  Speaker 12: and would lay it down and die where they freaking
• 9:22
  Speaker 12: place where they're playing, and maybe not as talented, but
• 9:28
  Speaker 12: you saw that because you have pretension of players. So
• 9:32
  Speaker 12: it's a challenge. Obviously, I think our team is where
• 9:36
  Speaker 12: it needs to be. Though, kind of to what you.
• 9:38
  Speaker 11: Were saying just a minute ago. Are there any maybe
• 9:40
  Speaker 11: one or two guys in particular, that have really set aside,
• 9:43
  Speaker 11: Maybe they're individual preferences for team goals and aspirations that
• 9:47
  Speaker 11: you've seen just really flourish and have a huge impact.
• 9:51
  Speaker 12: I think every player has. I think you could ask
• 9:54
  Speaker 12: that question the other way, and I'm not going to
• 9:56
  Speaker 12: say any players names, but the players that weren't willing
• 9:59
  Speaker 12: to to do that early in their lack of success
• 10:05
  Speaker 12: and also the team's success. So I think that's that's
• 10:10
  Speaker 12: the thing that's funny about it. The players that are
• 10:12
  Speaker 12: unwilling to do that and just want to go rogue
• 10:15
  Speaker 12: and do their own deal. It never works out for
• 10:17
  Speaker 12: them anyway, right, So like, why would you do that?
• 10:21
  Speaker 12: You know you want to do something. This is a
• 10:23
  Speaker 12: this is a team thing. So like why would you
• 10:26
  Speaker 12: play a team sport? Why wouldn't you just play golf
• 10:30
  Speaker 12: like this? This is what it is. So like like
• 10:34
  Speaker 12: I can't coach players that are playing by different rules
• 10:37
  Speaker 12: like And what I'm meaning about different rules is I'm
• 10:40
  Speaker 12: under the assumption this is about the team being good.
• 10:44
  Speaker 12: So we're playing by different rules. It's not going to
• 10:45
  Speaker 12: work out because I'm not gonna change my mindset, right,
• 10:49
  Speaker 12: and guess what that's going to give every individual the
• 10:52
  Speaker 12: chance for them to do well. You know, the saying
• 10:55
  Speaker 12: is as a coach, you got to look at a
• 10:56
  Speaker 12: program first team, second, individual third. They said, well, you
• 10:59
  Speaker 12: don't care about the playing, We care a ton about
• 11:01
  Speaker 12: the players. But if you ever get that out of order,
• 11:03
  Speaker 12: every one of those can't flourish. If you keep that
• 11:05
  Speaker 12: in mind, everybody can flourish. And and I think you know,
• 11:08
  Speaker 12: obviously building this early, you know, don't everybody everybody wasn't
• 11:14
  Speaker 12: where they are now mentally, and I think everybody now
• 11:16
  Speaker 12: is really enjoying being a part of the team.
• 11:20
  Speaker 14: How much do you maybe change how you motivate the
• 11:23
  Speaker 14: players or how you guys kind of talk about things
• 11:25
  Speaker 14: now that maybe yells back aren't quite against the wall
• 11:29
  Speaker 14: like it were going in the conference play. We know
• 11:31
  Speaker 14: didn't have any quad one or two wins, and now
• 11:32
  Speaker 14: you'll have a few and you know, top of the
• 11:36
  Speaker 14: SEC standings.
• 11:37
  Speaker 12: Yeah, that's good question, because we're gonna get team's best shots.
• 11:39
  Speaker 12: And I mean even tomorrow, like we're talking about this team,
• 11:42
  Speaker 12: this team's one if if I'm correct, and y'all could
• 11:44
  Speaker 12: look it up. I think the last four times they've
• 11:45
  Speaker 12: been in here, I distabished. We think we're two and
• 11:50
  Speaker 12: seven verse and maybe our last nine or three and
• 11:52
  Speaker 12: nine vers them the last twelve. So uh, this team's
• 11:57
  Speaker 12: been in every game they've they've played teams well. So
• 12:03
  Speaker 12: you know, I think that's the biggest thing that we
• 12:05
  Speaker 12: got to recognize is exactly that you can go start
• 12:09
  Speaker 12: looking at some of the history in some of these games.
• 12:12
  Speaker 12: When when teams play late games one day Wednesdays and
• 12:14
  Speaker 12: early games Fridays versus a team that played Tuesday this
• 12:17
  Speaker 12: year and start looking at you know, there hadn't been
• 12:20
  Speaker 12: a team when when yet so far in that Serrenariah
• 12:24
  Speaker 12: one five with an average point differential by fourteen points,
• 12:28
  Speaker 12: lose by fourteen points. So why am I saying that
• 12:31
  Speaker 12: you just like a coach, you're setting this. No, I'm
• 12:32
  Speaker 12: not setting up. This is what we need to understand
• 12:35
  Speaker 12: that our backs are gets the wall, and we got
• 12:37
  Speaker 12: to take on that underdog mentality, and we have an
• 12:39
  Speaker 12: opportunity to do something that hadn't been done here in
• 12:44
  Speaker 12: the last four trice. And we also have an opportunity
• 12:46
  Speaker 12: to do something that no one in the SEC has
• 12:48
  Speaker 12: done this year on Saturday, which is to play a
• 12:51
  Speaker 12: late night game on Wednesday and win an early game
• 12:54
  Speaker 12: on Saturday versus team that played Tuesday. So like that's
• 12:58
  Speaker 12: kind of how we motivate and look at it.
• 13:01
  Speaker 14: How much does preparation and kind of schedule change when
• 13:06
  Speaker 14: you playing eight pm Wednesday and then you think you're
• 13:08
  Speaker 14: playing two thirty but now it's noon. Does that kind
• 13:11
  Speaker 14: of mess up with the rhythm at all as opposed
• 13:15
  Speaker 14: to when you guys have been playing Tuesday Saturday and
• 13:18
  Speaker 14: it's maybe more of a six pm and a yeah
• 13:21
  Speaker 14: not game on a Saturday.
• 13:22
  Speaker 12: Yeah. Well, we prefer whatever our standard is because we're
• 13:25
  Speaker 12: you know, we're obviously used to it. But at the
• 13:29
  Speaker 12: end of the day, like you know, we're not asking
• 13:32
  Speaker 12: our players to all the sudden divert and go, you know,
• 13:36
  Speaker 12: invade the beaches of Normandy, right, I mean, like when
• 13:40
  Speaker 12: we're telling them, hey, we're gonna move the game up
• 13:42
  Speaker 12: two hours, you know, there's some planning, but it's not
• 13:46
  Speaker 12: it's not that extreme. And so I think that you know,
• 13:51
  Speaker 12: you like things consistent, but it is what it is.
• 13:53
  Speaker 12: And I think everybody across the SEC is probably going
• 13:56
  Speaker 12: to deal with something like that.
• 13:57
  Speaker 15: This Saturday, both Poping Jit Jakari mentioned kind of a
• 14:01
  Speaker 15: shift after that some U game that a lot of
• 14:03
  Speaker 15: people really crystallized and bought in kind of what shift
• 14:07
  Speaker 15: did you see in the team after that, you know,
• 14:09
  Speaker 15: and then leading into conference play.
• 14:15
  Speaker 12: I thought we probably had some some shift before it,
• 14:18
  Speaker 12: you know, like heading in the right direction. But I
• 14:24
  Speaker 12: think that I think that in that game, we I
• 14:29
  Speaker 12: think everybody recognized in that game that no matter what
• 14:35
  Speaker 12: you do and how hard you play, if you are
• 14:39
  Speaker 12: not focused in practice and you let details slip, you're
• 14:43
  Speaker 12: gonna feel like we did in that locker room after
• 14:45
  Speaker 12: that SU game because we did everything we did, fought back,
• 14:49
  Speaker 12: guns blazing, all that from a depthsit to have a
• 14:51
  Speaker 12: four point lead, and then the details of what we
• 14:54
  Speaker 12: had practiced allowed allowed them to when the game with
• 15:00
  Speaker 12: our turnovers and there are certain details with press break
• 15:03
  Speaker 12: that we had some guys who were out probably should
• 15:07
  Speaker 12: have been more focused on what we were doing. Strategically,
• 15:10
  Speaker 12: we're in the right spots and we're able to use
• 15:13
  Speaker 12: that as an example of how important is that you
• 15:15
  Speaker 12: do your job, because the margins are so small that
• 15:20
  Speaker 12: if you do your job right, eighty percent of the time,
• 15:24
  Speaker 12: it's not gonna work for it's good teams, right, And
• 15:27
  Speaker 12: the same deal with everybody. If you show up to
• 15:28
  Speaker 12: work eight out of ten days, probably not gonna have
• 15:31
  Speaker 12: a job. You're not gonna be a successful organization. And
• 15:34
  Speaker 12: so above all that, I think we learned that more.
• 15:37
  Speaker 11: Jacari he had mentioned how his jump to the SEC's
• 15:41
  Speaker 11: really had to increase some of this physicality. Just what
• 15:43
  Speaker 11: have you seen from him in that regard And is
• 15:45
  Speaker 11: there going to game so far this season or even
• 15:48
  Speaker 11: a conference play that's really stood out his ability to
• 15:51
  Speaker 11: go toe to toe fysicality wise.
• 15:53
  Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean he's learning that he's got to use
• 15:55
  Speaker 12: the size cudent advantage in the full court, you know.
• 15:58
  Speaker 12: And then obviously since he's small and quicker like he
• 16:02
  Speaker 12: doesn't he needs to. You know, if you're small, if
• 16:05
  Speaker 12: you're small, you going to be quick and fast?
• 16:07
  Speaker 16: You don't.
• 16:07
  Speaker 12: You don't want to allow them to use their physicality
• 16:09
  Speaker 12: on you. So you need a great separation to maintain separation.
• 16:13
  Speaker 12: And that's what you see him out of these ball
• 16:15
  Speaker 12: screens and all this stuff. He's not you know, he's
• 16:17
  Speaker 12: not gonna let guys just crowd them you know. And
• 16:20
  Speaker 12: but the thing with Jakari, it's not like Jakari grew
• 16:24
  Speaker 12: up playing as a player who was six feet tall
• 16:29
  Speaker 12: in high school and was playing against guys that were
• 16:31
  Speaker 12: smaller than them, and he then he so he's had
• 16:34
  Speaker 12: to learn their adabt being small. He's been smaller player
• 16:37
  Speaker 12: his whole life, you know, So like he knows how
• 16:40
  Speaker 12: to deal with that. The guys who struggle are those
• 16:42
  Speaker 12: guys that were they grew to six four in the
• 16:45
  Speaker 12: sixth grade and never grew another inch. Then it's like
• 16:48
  Speaker 12: they don't know what to do. Like Cary knows what
• 16:51
  Speaker 12: he's been been a his size of that whole his
• 16:53
  Speaker 12: whole life.
• 16:54
  Speaker 13: Does the mother in law defense have to be applied
• 16:57
  Speaker 13: to Michie Johnson too?
• 16:58
  Speaker 12: It's got to be applied to everybody. You know, Hey,
• 17:01
  Speaker 12: the mother in law's imply it to everybody. Do they
• 17:04
  Speaker 12: apply to they apply that constant nagging her and harassment
• 17:07
  Speaker 12: at all times? Of course they do. So we're gotta
• 17:09
  Speaker 12: do the same deal.
• 17:10
  Speaker 13: But especially because Josh Hupper was such a focal point
• 17:15
  Speaker 13: Mississippi State, and what they want to do is meet
• 17:18
  Speaker 13: you similar.
• 17:20
  Speaker 12: He's just yeah, he's a great guard. I mean you know,
• 17:22
  Speaker 12: just a really really good guard attacker can score different ways,
• 17:28
  Speaker 12: got shooters around him. You know, it's a tough matchup.
• 17:32
  Speaker 12: So anytime this league, I mean, you're gonna see great
• 17:35
  Speaker 12: guard play. And I mean it's just not a coincidence
• 17:37
  Speaker 12: that you know, you'll see South Carolina, you know, I
• 17:41
  Speaker 12: mean they were beaten. Were they beating LSU by thirty
• 17:44
  Speaker 12: at their place at one point? I mean fifty to
• 17:47
  Speaker 12: twenty two? I mean at LSU. No, we weren't beating
• 17:49
  Speaker 12: them like that here at home. So, like, I mean,
• 17:53
  Speaker 12: guards in this league, man, they cut your lights out quick.
• 17:57
  Speaker 17: After the Mississippi State game, Christians talked about how Hubbard wore.
• 18:02
  Speaker 15: Down mentally just playing against your system.
• 18:06
  Speaker 17: You've talked a lot about how you know it causes
• 18:09
  Speaker 17: fateen physically, but how does kind of playing it can
• 18:13
  Speaker 17: still really where teams and where teams plays down on
• 18:16
  Speaker 17: the mental front.
• 18:18
  Speaker 12: Well, I mean, you know, I don't I don't want
• 18:21
  Speaker 12: to speak to other teams, but I know this that
• 18:25
  Speaker 12: that the physical effects the mental, you know what I'm saying.
• 18:29
  Speaker 12: And like, toughness is obviously a big part of the
• 18:32
  Speaker 12: game of basketball, and I think when coaches we talk
• 18:35
  Speaker 12: about toughness. People think toughness sometimes they misconstrue it as
• 18:41
  Speaker 12: like seventh grade toughness, sixth grade toughness, which is like, ma,
• 18:45
  Speaker 12: you know, this guy said something to me. I'm gonna
• 18:47
  Speaker 12: go I'm gonna go fight him, you know what I'm saying,
• 18:49
  Speaker 12: like or like you know this guy, you know, he
• 18:52
  Speaker 12: kind of pushed me. So I'm gonna get a technical
• 18:53
  Speaker 12: foul and show him that is my house, right, Like
• 18:56
  Speaker 12: that's like the weakest thing ever, Like that's some mentally
• 19:00
  Speaker 12: weak is soft as stuff ever that if you have
• 19:02
  Speaker 12: to that, if you don't get it, that they can
• 19:04
  Speaker 12: mentally take you out of your game like that. So
• 19:05
  Speaker 12: I'm not going to speak on other teams, but I
• 19:08
  Speaker 12: speak to our teams that I expect them that there
• 19:12
  Speaker 12: is no such thing as getting tired, Like you just
• 19:17
  Speaker 12: can't get tired. And what I mean by that is
• 19:20
  Speaker 12: like Rip Potando is a great coach, and he said
• 19:22
  Speaker 12: that he wanted certain things out of players, and he
• 19:24
  Speaker 12: said he wants great athletes. He said, what do you
• 19:26
  Speaker 12: mean by a great athlete? A great athlete is the
• 19:28
  Speaker 12: one that doesn't get tired. So like, you know, you'll
• 19:30
  Speaker 12: hear this mental weakness by by players. And I'm not
• 19:33
  Speaker 12: talking about another team. You know, I've coached some of
• 19:35
  Speaker 12: these players early. It's like, what I was tired, Like
• 19:40
  Speaker 12: just let's just let's just make that synonymous with soft.
• 19:44
  Speaker 12: Why that happen? Because I'm soft? And if you start
• 19:47
  Speaker 12: looking at it that way, then you'll stop getting tired
• 19:49
  Speaker 12: and using that as an excuse to be tired, right
• 19:52
  Speaker 12: And I think that's when you when you feel that
• 19:55
  Speaker 12: you're winding, you got to lock in more mentally than ever,
• 19:58
  Speaker 12: Like you really got to find yourself, really lock in
• 20:00
  Speaker 12: more mentally than ever. If you're driving home at four
• 20:02
  Speaker 12: am and you're really sleepy, right now is not the
• 20:06
  Speaker 12: time to get tired. Now is the time to mentally
• 20:08
  Speaker 12: be like I got to be like a lot and
• 20:10
  Speaker 12: dialed in. And so that's what we want out of
• 20:12
  Speaker 12: our players. I'm sure all coaches from other teams probably
• 20:15
  Speaker 12: would say the same thing. What makes this.
• 20:17
  Speaker 15: Team look like a tournament team right now? For you?
• 20:19
  Speaker 11: Besides the confidence and the identity.
• 20:27
  Speaker 12: I think I think that we got good players. I
• 20:29
  Speaker 12: think we have older players. I think we can win
• 20:32
  Speaker 12: a multitude of ways. I think that we're playing really
• 20:35
  Speaker 12: good defense right now, which travels I think that if
• 20:39
  Speaker 12: that if we continue to play well and prove ourselves
• 20:43
  Speaker 12: in this league, we can obviously do it worse anybody.
• 20:45
  Speaker 12: I think that what we have and the way that
• 20:49
  Speaker 12: we play, we could beat anybody. I really believe that that.
• 20:54
  Speaker 12: It's just we're not playing just we're not some of
• 20:58
  Speaker 12: the really great teams in the country who have great players.
• 21:01
  Speaker 12: They may have some teams out there that have some
• 21:02
  Speaker 12: better players, let's just call it. You know, maybe you
• 21:04
  Speaker 12: play against them, that's five NBA players, but we're not
• 21:07
  Speaker 12: going to play them the same in the same game necessarily, right,
• 21:12
  Speaker 12: you know what I mean? Like if I always do
• 21:14
  Speaker 12: football terms, like if one team is great at the
• 21:17
  Speaker 12: power eye on defense, I mean on offense and football,
• 21:21
  Speaker 12: and they run the same you know whatever defense in football,
• 21:25
  Speaker 12: and you have worse players and you do the exact
• 21:27
  Speaker 12: same thing, you're probably gonna lose. Right, But what we
• 21:30
  Speaker 12: do was spreading the floor with our shooters everywhere. You know,
• 21:36
  Speaker 12: we can do that with anybody. And now that we're
• 21:39
  Speaker 12: defending at a high level, I think that not only
• 21:43
  Speaker 12: do I think are we trying to get to the
• 21:46
  Speaker 12: n SAY tournament and win enough games in the league,
• 21:49
  Speaker 12: We're trying to win every game in the league. You
• 21:51
  Speaker 12: know what I'm saying, Like, that's our mindset, Like we
• 21:54
  Speaker 12: want to do the things you can do that give
• 21:55
  Speaker 12: you that opportunity, not focus on winning, but doing the
• 21:58
  Speaker 12: things you can do because we feel if we do that,
• 22:00
  Speaker 12: we're gonna have a great chance. We should have been in
• 22:01
  Speaker 12: any game and we would say that, you know, if
• 22:04
  Speaker 12: we can do it in this so you can do
• 22:05
  Speaker 12: it first anybody.
• 22:06
  Speaker 14: There's also improvement defensively. Does I have to do it
• 22:09
  Speaker 14: just gel and time in the system, or is there
• 22:12
  Speaker 14: another tweet that you guys have maybe made to help.
• 22:15
  Speaker 15: You guys improve.
• 22:16
  Speaker 12: I think that the biggest thing is what you said
• 22:20
  Speaker 12: and that we did not adjust anything. You know what
• 22:23
  Speaker 12: I'm saying. I think that's probably more than important. Like
• 22:25
  Speaker 12: why are we good at what we do now? Because
• 22:27
  Speaker 12: we continue to do what we do. And I've coached
• 22:30
  Speaker 12: how basketball long enough and been a part of sports
• 22:33
  Speaker 12: long enough. The worst thing you can do is if
• 22:37
  Speaker 12: you believe the benefits of being a head coach a
• 22:40
  Speaker 12: long time, is you know what you believe in? Right,
• 22:44
  Speaker 12: there's this this this coach that told me this one time.
• 22:47
  Speaker 12: It's like a seventh grade mindset but it's like, know
• 22:50
  Speaker 12: what you believe in, believe in what you know. That way,
• 22:54
  Speaker 12: when times get really tough, you know, your character really
• 22:57
  Speaker 12: show in what you believe in, right, And so it's
• 23:00
  Speaker 12: not like we when we started to see them baths, like, oh,
• 23:04
  Speaker 12: let's just change it out. We're gonna run two three
• 23:06
  Speaker 12: zone and we're gonna now just run the flex on offense,
• 23:09
  Speaker 12: like and then that didn't work the next game. So
• 23:12
  Speaker 12: now we're gonna run you know, the will offense and
• 23:14
  Speaker 12: we're gonna be in a one three one zone, and
• 23:15
  Speaker 12: then the team has no identity ever, you know. And
• 23:19
  Speaker 12: so I think the reason we are because we stick
• 23:21
  Speaker 12: with what we do and we just try to get
• 23:22
  Speaker 12: better and better and better and better at it. And
• 23:24
  Speaker 12: now we're to that point. Last question, was moving the
• 23:28
  Speaker 12: game up?
• 23:28
  Speaker 6: Is that?
• 23:29
  Speaker 11: Is that a league decision? Was there any consideration at
• 23:31
  Speaker 11: all moving it even up to today or even postponing
• 23:34
  Speaker 11: it for later the.
• 23:35
  Speaker 12: Situation, Yeah, there was some consideration that you could moved
• 23:38
  Speaker 12: it to next week, but they play Wednesday, we don't play,
• 23:41
  Speaker 12: so they couldn't do it on Tuesday. League recommended it,
• 23:48
  Speaker 12: you know, and so most teams were doing it to
• 23:50
  Speaker 12: try to help the other team so they could get
• 23:52
  Speaker 12: out of here. I do want to say this because
• 23:54
  Speaker 12: I think this is very important that we check the weather.
• 23:57
  Speaker 12: We were moving this up. Well, the most important thing
• 24:01
  Speaker 12: it should allow our fans to all get here with
• 24:03
  Speaker 12: no issues, you know, So look, I pray, what do
• 24:10
  Speaker 12: they always do before they tell you about investing money.
• 24:12
  Speaker 12: I got to preface this by saying, I'm not a
• 24:14
  Speaker 12: weather man, so if anyone gets an accident after they
• 24:16
  Speaker 12: leave here, and I'm not getting sued, okay, I can't
• 24:18
  Speaker 12: predict the weather. And so there we go. Now that
• 24:20
  Speaker 12: we got that out of the way, all right, this
• 24:22
  Speaker 12: should be no problem for us to get to these games,
• 24:25
  Speaker 12: to this game and back from this game. And this
• 24:27
  Speaker 12: is a very good team, a team that has beat
• 24:29
  Speaker 12: us four times in a row. In here. We got
• 24:31
  Speaker 12: to come in here like underdogs. We got to have
• 24:33
  Speaker 12: everybody getting here when need our students here right Hey,

• 30:24
  Speaker 6: takes a bill.
• 30:24
  Speaker 5: Got your name wrong once? I'm impressed, and it's not
• 30:27
  Speaker 5: shabby for an old guy.
• 30:28
  Speaker 7: Huh Well, Tray is also not a hard name to remember.
• 30:31
  Speaker 6: But to be fair, I can I could screw up Bob,
• 30:35
  Speaker 6: So okay, we.
• 30:36
  Speaker 5: All have pretty easy to remember names.
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: What's your name, Oh, Caleb, that's right, that's the way
• 30:42
  Speaker 6: that works. Let's talk a little bit of NFL. Of course,
• 30:44
  Speaker 6: we've got the playoffs coming up, but right now, the
• 30:46
  Speaker 6: coaching carousel.
• 30:48
  Speaker 7: Yeah, a lot of coaches found their new homes.
• 30:50
  Speaker 6: Yeah, a lot of coaches looking for a new home.
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: What is this? The Buffalo Bills are interviewing Philip Rivers.
• 30:57
  Speaker 7: I did see that earlier today. That kind of came
• 30:59
  Speaker 7: out of left field.
• 31:00
  Speaker 6: Do you think. I mean, well, like three five weeks ago,
• 31:04
  Speaker 6: a month and a half ago, the guy was coaching
• 31:06
  Speaker 6: high school football. Then suddenly he's back in the NFL
• 31:09
  Speaker 6: for a cup of coffee for the Colts, right, and
• 31:11
  Speaker 6: then now he's potentially interviewing for you.
• 31:14
  Speaker 8: You got to think that it was the Bills that
• 31:16
  Speaker 8: approached him. Like, I don't see I just don't know that.
• 31:19
  Speaker 8: I see Philip Rivers being like, man, I want to
• 31:21
  Speaker 8: be an NFL coach. Now I'm gonna go ask the Bills.
• 31:23
  Speaker 6: I could see him doing that. He's been hitting the
• 31:26
  Speaker 6: head a lot, so.
• 31:28
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I can't see a sane Philip Rivers doing that.
• 31:31
  Speaker 6: I can't see. But but why interview him? Why not say, hey, Philip,
• 31:34
  Speaker 6: maybe go get a little bit more experienced. But no,
• 31:36
  Speaker 6: they're actually talking to him. And the crazy thing is
• 31:39
  Speaker 6: that Josh Allen is sitting in on all the interviews, right,
• 31:43
  Speaker 6: Mike McDaniel's also interviewing for that position as well. It's crazy, man, Yeah,
• 31:49
  Speaker 6: absolutely crazy.
• 31:50
  Speaker 8: Especially after how they promoted who was it that they
• 31:53
  Speaker 8: promoted the GM Yeah, which I mean huh well.
• 32:00
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and God bless the Bills. I mean, this was
• 32:02
  Speaker 6: their opportunity this year, right because Mahomes was down.
• 32:06
  Speaker 8: And Jackson is out. Yeah, and I mean yeah, I
• 32:11
  Speaker 8: feel for Josh Allen. I do a little.
• 32:14
  Speaker 6: Bit, but a little bit. I have a good friend
• 32:16
  Speaker 6: who is a long suffering Buffalo's Bills fan and lived
• 32:19
  Speaker 6: through the wide left, wide right field goals that caused
• 32:23
  Speaker 6: them to lose.
• 32:23
  Speaker 7: We're straight super Bowls and you lose them all to
• 32:26
  Speaker 7: Bim Kelly.
• 32:27
  Speaker 6: Oh yeah, it was tough on the old guy. His
• 32:29
  Speaker 6: dad actually played ball for briefly for the Buffalo Bills.
• 32:32
  Speaker 6: He was a rookie with OJ Simpson. And there's a
• 32:34
  Speaker 6: lot of interesting stories that we can't have time for.
• 32:37
  Speaker 6: Let's talk about the playoffs coming up. What do we
• 32:41
  Speaker 6: got We got.
• 32:43
  Speaker 8: Well, I'm still trying to recover from that abomination that
• 32:45
  Speaker 8: I watched on Sunday last weekend.
• 32:48
  Speaker 6: Which abomination was that you're Houston Texans.
• 32:53
  Speaker 8: I look, I said, and you weren't here, But I
• 32:57
  Speaker 8: said the previous week. It's very difficul cult for them
• 33:01
  Speaker 8: to hurt me.
• 33:01
  Speaker 15: Now.
• 33:02
  Speaker 5: And what number Jersey does see d shrowd wear again?
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: Are you sure it's not nine?
• 33:08
  Speaker 12: Yeah?
• 33:09
  Speaker 7: And what nine? Turnover? Nine?
• 33:11
  Speaker 6: What? What?
• 33:11
  Speaker 7: Would he have? Four interceptions and five fumbles like the
• 33:13
  Speaker 7: two games, something like.
• 33:14
  Speaker 6: That, and they still nearly they should have And I
• 33:16
  Speaker 6: texted you. I texted you, I said, I said, they
• 33:18
  Speaker 6: got to get him out of the game, but they didn't.
• 33:20
  Speaker 7: Know because Dimigo Rans was loyal to him.
• 33:22
  Speaker 8: And you know what, you I don't know that Davis
• 33:25
  Speaker 8: Mills would have come in and won that game, but
• 33:27
  Speaker 8: you should have tried, but he would not.
• 33:28
  Speaker 6: Have lost the game. Yeah. That that's and that's where it's.
• 33:32
  Speaker 8: And it stings even more just because of the opportunity
• 33:35
  Speaker 8: that was right in front of them with bone Nix.
• 33:37
  Speaker 8: And you know what, maybe Stiindham will come in for
• 33:39
  Speaker 8: the Broncos and surprise everybody and he'll shock.
• 33:42
  Speaker 6: The world well, and I was shocked. Didn't. Didn't the
• 33:44
  Speaker 6: Broncos coach come out and say that they were going
• 33:47
  Speaker 6: to win. I think he called it.
• 33:49
  Speaker 7: I well, I mean I would hope he would.
• 33:51
  Speaker 6: Well, but you don't. I mean, you don't go out
• 33:52
  Speaker 6: there and pull your Babe Ruth, your Joe Namath.
• 33:55
  Speaker 8: I mean, yeah, he's trying to let his quarterback know
• 33:58
  Speaker 8: that he's got faith in him, anything that he can
• 34:00
  Speaker 8: do to.
• 34:02
  Speaker 7: Get that guy.
• 34:02
  Speaker 6: Saying it's a Jedi mind trick. It's not bulletin board
• 34:05
  Speaker 6: material for the other team.
• 34:06
  Speaker 7: I mean, I'm sure they will take it as that.
• 34:08
  Speaker 6: At the NFL level. I don't think they care. I
• 34:10
  Speaker 6: don't think that. I mean, they're just there for the paycheck.
• 34:13
  Speaker 7: Right, Yeah, that is that is true.
• 34:15
  Speaker 6: So we got the AFC Championship game coming up.
• 34:18
  Speaker 8: And you know what, I will point out, when we
• 34:20
  Speaker 8: did these brackets two weeks ago or whatever, I'm three
• 34:23
  Speaker 8: for four on my final four picks for the playoffs.
• 34:26
  Speaker 12: No, I'm not.
• 34:28
  Speaker 7: None are the only one that I missed was Buffalo.
• 34:32
  Speaker 7: Remember I had Buffalo beating Denver.
• 34:33
  Speaker 5: So doubted my Broncos.
• 34:36
  Speaker 6: Yeah, we did.
• 34:37
  Speaker 7: It wasn't so much that I doubted Denver.
• 34:39
  Speaker 8: I just thought that Josh Allen was that good and
• 34:42
  Speaker 8: I thought that they was finally.
• 34:43
  Speaker 7: Going to be his year for the reasons we mentioned
• 34:45
  Speaker 7: a few minutes ago.
• 34:45
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and I think it should have been. But yeah,
• 34:47
  Speaker 6: it's the way it goes. And everybody's like, oh, this
• 34:50
  Speaker 6: is so great. We don't have we don't have the
• 34:54
  Speaker 6: dynasties that were there, you know previously Kansas City and this,
• 34:57
  Speaker 6: that and the other, like this is this is old school
• 34:59
  Speaker 6: dynasty playoffs right here?
• 35:00
  Speaker 7: Yeahlan Denver.
• 35:02
  Speaker 8: Before we continue on with this, I do want to
• 35:05
  Speaker 8: backpedal a little bit because there was one thing that
• 35:06
  Speaker 8: I also wanted to mention as well, regarding that Texans
• 35:10
  Speaker 8: and Patriots game and how somehow it became the most
• 35:14
  Speaker 8: viewed ESPN event in the history of that entire network.
• 35:18
  Speaker 6: It's just like people watching NASCAR.
• 35:20
  Speaker 12: For the Rex.
• 35:20
  Speaker 7: Eight million people tuned in to watch that debacle.
• 35:23
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's just like watching NASCAR for the Rex. That's
• 35:26
  Speaker 6: exactly what it is. Okay.
• 35:27
  Speaker 8: Anyways, backup Skins, the teams that are actually still anything, and.
• 35:31
  Speaker 6: This is like a heritage of sort of playoff here, right,
• 35:34
  Speaker 6: I mean back in the day when you had the
• 35:36
  Speaker 6: new England Patriots with Tom Brady and the Denver Broncos
• 35:39
  Speaker 6: with John Elway perennially in the I don't think that
• 35:42
  Speaker 6: happened the same time. No, it didn't happen. I'm just
• 35:44
  Speaker 6: talking about that. These were perennial playoff teams before Peyton Manning.
• 35:49
  Speaker 6: The Broncos actually had a quarterback.
• 35:51
  Speaker 9: Yes, but that was way before I.
• 35:52
  Speaker 12: Was my time.
• 35:54
  Speaker 6: Yea, Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It's old school, young people,
• 35:58
  Speaker 6: and you don't even know about John Elway playing without
• 36:01
  Speaker 6: ACLS and mcl.
• 36:03
  Speaker 9: I'm just we're talking about that generation about Tom Brady.
• 36:08
  Speaker 6: Yeah. So, okay, we've got New England and Denver coming up.
• 36:10
  Speaker 6: That's Sunday at three o'clock, Battle of the top two seeds.
• 36:14
  Speaker 7: I got New England in that game.
• 36:16
  Speaker 8: Man Like, I'm sorry, Caleb, but I don't see backup
• 36:20
  Speaker 8: quarterback coming in to play his first actual meaningful NFL snaps.
• 36:24
  Speaker 5: You know, the last time the Patriots played a backup
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: quarterback in the pot.
• 36:27
  Speaker 7: I know what happens, but that is not this.
• 36:30
  Speaker 6: Well, are you sure about that? Okay? Advantages go, advantages
• 36:34
  Speaker 6: for Denver's they're playing in Denver, right, it's gonna be
• 36:37
  Speaker 6: dang cold. Yes, it is dang dry, and there's gonna
• 36:42
  Speaker 6: be a serious lack of oxygen, right, So that's always
• 36:45
  Speaker 6: an advantage, especially this time of year, after you've got
• 36:48
  Speaker 6: a full season behind you. Your body's fatigued and I
• 36:50
  Speaker 6: know there's some wayte to overcome that. But that's a
• 36:52
  Speaker 6: big advantage for Denver. It's not that New England's not
• 36:55
  Speaker 6: used to playing in the cold, it's that they're not
• 36:57
  Speaker 6: used to playing in the cold, in the dry.
• 36:59
  Speaker 8: In The thing for me is that the New England Patriots,
• 37:03
  Speaker 8: it is my belief that they have a deal with
• 37:05
  Speaker 8: Satan and so they will just win like and it
• 37:09
  Speaker 8: doesn't matter.
• 37:10
  Speaker 9: Are you saying them yeah, Are.
• 37:13
  Speaker 6: You saying they signed a deal with Jerry Jones?
• 37:15
  Speaker 17: Is that.
• 37:17
  Speaker 7: No? No, they would never win a game again if
• 37:19
  Speaker 7: they win from the Cowboys. There were two different Satan's there.
• 37:22
  Speaker 6: Okay, I didn't know we were talking in the multi
• 37:24
  Speaker 6: Satan universe. So yeah, so I'm going New England on
• 37:29
  Speaker 6: this one too. I mean, they're they're a favorite, uh
• 37:32
  Speaker 6: and they're favored on the road. And again, I just
• 37:35
  Speaker 6: I'm with you. I don't think a backup quarterback, even
• 37:37
  Speaker 6: one that's a game manager can pull that off. But
• 37:40
  Speaker 6: stranger things. Indeed, yes, they have either side of the back.
• 37:44
  Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I'm sorry. Do you have an opinion?
• 37:47
  Speaker 9: I don't want to go against the Patriots, but I
• 37:50
  Speaker 9: am rooting for the Broncos.
• 37:51
  Speaker 6: So this is what Yes, this is your heart there?
• 37:53
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I agree with that sentiment as well. I hate
• 37:56
  Speaker 8: the Patriots. I don't ever want to see them win
• 37:58
  Speaker 8: anything again. I would love for the Broncos to pull
• 38:00
  Speaker 8: this off.
• 38:00
  Speaker 6: The only reason I want to see the Patriots come
• 38:03
  Speaker 6: back and be good is because I want to see
• 38:06
  Speaker 6: them do it without Bill Belichick. Right, I want to
• 38:08
  Speaker 6: see that ego get crushed just because I like watching
• 38:11
  Speaker 6: people in pain emotionally. Did I mention that out loud? Sorry,
• 38:15
  Speaker 6: it was just a thought in my head. So yeah, right, yeah,
• 38:19
  Speaker 6: I My heart is with Denver, it really is. But
• 38:23
  Speaker 6: in reality, I don't think that they're going to pull
• 38:24
  Speaker 6: it off. So NFC Championship Game, Los Angeles, Caleb, Sorry
• 38:29
  Speaker 6: I missed you, Caleb.
• 38:30
  Speaker 5: Wow, defense wins championships.
• 38:33
  Speaker 7: Tell that to the Texans.
• 38:36
  Speaker 6: Point. Counterpoint, Well, the Broncos have an offense though, Yeah,
• 38:41
  Speaker 6: the defense wins championships. A great man once said that.
• 38:43
  Speaker 5: Yeah, the Bronco Texans had a great defense too, but
• 38:46
  Speaker 5: the Broncos have an offense that exists.
• 38:48
  Speaker 8: So defense wins championships when you have a somewhat competent offense.
• 38:52
  Speaker 6: Exactly the championships when you don't turn the ball over
• 38:55
  Speaker 6: nine times. Yeah, that's Jared Stidham's not going to turn
• 38:57
  Speaker 6: the ball over nine times because he's gonna throw check
• 38:59
  Speaker 6: downs and hand the ball off to r J. Harvey.
• 39:01
  Speaker 6: That's pretty much the game plan. I checked in with
• 39:03
  Speaker 6: the coach. That's what he said, So go Broncos, Go Broncos. Okay, Caleb,
• 39:07
  Speaker 6: since I skipped you a second ago, let's go to
• 39:09
  Speaker 6: the NFC Championship. It gets your take. Between the Rams
• 39:12
  Speaker 6: and the Seahawks.
• 39:13
  Speaker 5: It has been really impressive to watch Sam Donald do
• 39:16
  Speaker 5: what he's done this year. I just wanted to say
• 39:17
  Speaker 5: that before. I mean, obviously Matthew Stafford is a better quarterback,
• 39:20
  Speaker 5: but it's been really cool to see Donald go from
• 39:22
  Speaker 5: you know, the Cinderella feel good story last year with
• 39:26
  Speaker 5: the Vikings and kind of keep it going with me
• 39:27
  Speaker 5: with the Seahawks. It's all gonna come crashing down this week.
• 39:30
  Speaker 15: Though.
• 39:31
  Speaker 6: Okay, so you think.
• 39:32
  Speaker 7: The Seahawks lose here.
• 39:33
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm going Rams.
• 39:34
  Speaker 7: Okay, I picked Seattle.
• 39:37
  Speaker 6: Okay, give us the reasons. Don't say you like their
• 39:41
  Speaker 6: team colors.
• 39:42
  Speaker 9: That's what I was gonna say.
• 39:45
  Speaker 8: I just say that because I picked them in the
• 39:47
  Speaker 8: start of my bracket.
• 39:48
  Speaker 7: I'm not gonna got that's my bracket. I'm sticking to it, right.
• 39:54
  Speaker 9: I'm going with Seattle as well.
• 39:55
  Speaker 6: Okay, and that's just because.
• 39:57
  Speaker 9: I'm with him. I picked them, but I they were
• 40:00
  Speaker 9: gonna lose eventually.
• 40:01
  Speaker 7: In my brackets. They're also at Seattle's at home.
• 40:03
  Speaker 6: They are at home. They are a three and a
• 40:04
  Speaker 6: half point favorite, according.
• 40:05
  Speaker 7: And there are no slouch on defense either.
• 40:07
  Speaker 6: Yeah, they've they've got good. They've got good things going on.
• 40:10
  Speaker 6: Darnold is good. Uh, we'll see. Stafford is good too,
• 40:14
  Speaker 6: and he's found kind of a second win now that
• 40:17
  Speaker 6: they've got Davonte Adams in there. I don't they split
• 40:21
  Speaker 6: the regular season. I think it's gonna be close. I
• 40:23
  Speaker 6: honestly do. But I would give it to the Seahawks
• 40:26
  Speaker 6: as well. But I can't rule out the Rams because
• 40:28
  Speaker 6: I like the colors of their uniforms on both of
• 40:31
  Speaker 6: these games.
• 40:32
  Speaker 9: Sounds like it, I said I'm going for Bronc the Broncos.
• 40:35
  Speaker 5: Okay, are you kicking the Broncos?
• 40:37
  Speaker 6: Yes, So Riley is the outlier.
• 40:42
  Speaker 7: Well, Caleb's picking the Broncos too.
• 40:43
  Speaker 6: Riley and Caleb are the outliers.
• 40:45
  Speaker 7: But then they're not outliers if it's two and two.
• 40:48
  Speaker 6: Well, but they're against me, so they're outliers.
• 40:50
  Speaker 7: Okay, they don't.
• 40:51
  Speaker 6: They don't agree with us. Ryan, So are you Vegas?
• 40:54
  Speaker 5: Is that what we're doing?
• 40:55
  Speaker 7: Are you asking supposed to?
• 40:57
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 40:58
  Speaker 12: I'm not.
• 40:58
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I know, will Is lord Vay. I slept at
• 41:01

• 41:07
  Speaker 6: will tell you at the beginning of the season, I
• 41:09
  Speaker 6: declared that the NFL was dead to me, and the
• 41:11
  Speaker 6: only reason I was picking a couple of teams to
• 41:13
  Speaker 6: root for was because of the fighting Dan Campbell's and
• 41:16
  Speaker 6: the fact that I liked the New York Giants pick
• 41:18
  Speaker 6: up of Jackson Dart and Ryan sad.
• 41:22

  Speaker 6: the greatest things that you watch out for that team
• 41:28
  Speaker 6: next year. I agree.
• 41:29
  Speaker 7: I'm totally on board with that.
• 41:31
  Speaker 6: I mean, if Cam Scattaboo hasn't lost too many brain cells,
• 41:34
  Speaker 6: then perhaps or maybe he's lost just enough brain cells.
• 41:38
  Speaker 6: I think they've got some great things in front of
• 41:39
  Speaker 6: them in New York. I yeah, that's pretty cool. So

• 43:28
  Speaker 6: Carolina this month, authorities have charged and arrested fifty two
• 43:31
  Speaker 6: year old Gudrun casperin linen Kogle. I read that name
• 43:36
  Speaker 6: that three times fast, goodran Casper linen Kogl, goodran top.
• 43:39
  Speaker 7: You don't have to act right.
• 43:41
  Speaker 6: The arrested her for two murders committed nearly two decades apart.
• 43:44
  Speaker 6: The most recent crime, During a twelve person Thanksgiving dinner,
• 43:48
  Speaker 6: Casper Linen Kogle allegedly served poisoned wine to three people.
• 43:54
  Speaker 6: The victims were her adult daughter, Leela Livis, who died
• 43:58
  Speaker 6: from the poisoning. Another daughter, Mia, and a boyfriend also
• 44:02
  Speaker 6: fell ill but survived. Wow. What kind of poison It
• 44:06
  Speaker 6: is called acidurned trial or something like that. It is
• 44:09
  Speaker 6: a chemical that the human body slowly converts into cyanide.
• 44:12
  Speaker 6: I mean this was devious. This is like Netflix's murder
• 44:17
  Speaker 6: documentary Deep Stuff. It caused delayed toxicity, making the source
• 44:22
  Speaker 6: of the illness harder to identify immediately. So the cold
• 44:25
  Speaker 6: case in this case is from two thousand and seven.
• 44:28
  Speaker 6: While investigating this poisoning, the North Carolina State Bureau of
• 44:31
  Speaker 6: Investigation found evidence linking Casper lining Coogle to the death
• 44:36
  Speaker 6: of Michael Schmidt. Schmidt died in a Hindersonville, North Carolina
• 44:40
  Speaker 6: house fire in two thousand and seven. While officials have
• 44:43
  Speaker 6: not publicly detailed the exact link between the two cases yet,
• 44:46
  Speaker 6: she now has been charged with his murder as well.
• 44:48
  Speaker 6: So that's two counts of first degree murdered, two counts
• 44:51
  Speaker 6: of attempted murder, and three counts of distributing prohibited food
• 44:54
  Speaker 6: or beverages. They're just gonna throw that one on the
• 44:57
  Speaker 6: top there, because if the murder charges weren't enough. She's
• 45:00
  Speaker 6: a former restaurant owner in Asheville, North Carolina, where I
• 45:03
  Speaker 6: actually have family from. It's not a big town, right,
• 45:06
  Speaker 6: so I'm sure people around there obviously are chatting about
• 45:09
  Speaker 6: this one, talking that up. But yeah, I thought that
• 45:11
  Speaker 6: was to me that threw back to I don't know
• 45:13
  Speaker 6: if you guys ever watched Justified, great TV show, one
• 45:16
  Speaker 6: of Chip Howard's favorite TV shows, Timothy Oliphant, great show.
• 45:19
  Speaker 6: I mean, some of the best writing out there. But
• 45:21
  Speaker 6: one of the characters on there like to poison people
• 45:23
  Speaker 6: with their moonshine.
• 45:24
  Speaker 5: In similar fashion, there's a picture on Chip's wall with
• 45:27
  Speaker 5: his face superimposed on the main characters face.
• 45:29
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Unjustified. Chip's a big fan, so you know it's
• 45:31
  Speaker 6: got to be good. If Chip is a big fan right, yeah,
• 45:34
  Speaker 6: all right, what else held?
• 45:36
  Speaker 5: All right?
• 45:38
  Speaker 6: I can go, okay go, We're going to Florida. You know,
• 45:40
  Speaker 6: we always got a Florida go on.
• 45:41
  Speaker 8: In Florida, we have a Florida man by the name
• 45:44
  Speaker 8: of Austin Simmons who is jailed on a five thousand
• 45:47
  Speaker 8: dollars bond. He's been charged with felony battery. So here's
• 45:53
  Speaker 8: what happened. Apparently this was at a Florida bus terminal
• 45:56
  Speaker 8: on Monday evening. The victim, a man named Carlos Mora,
• 46:01
  Speaker 8: had been checking on Simmons, who appeared unconscious, when Simmons
• 46:05
  Speaker 8: then woke up, irate and threw an opened ketchup packet
• 46:10
  Speaker 8: at the victim.
• 46:11
  Speaker 7: According to court records.
• 46:12
  Speaker 6: An open ketchup packet.
• 46:14
  Speaker 8: So the victim sustained two spots of ketchup on his
• 46:18
  Speaker 8: jacket from the three quarters of an outs packet, which
• 46:23
  Speaker 8: officers found on the ground opened with ketchup pouring out.
• 46:28
  Speaker 8: The man denied striking the victim and reportedly admitted to
• 46:32
  Speaker 8: giving him the ketchup packet. The incident escalated to a
• 46:36
  Speaker 8: third degree felony charge due to the man's prior twenty
• 46:41
  Speaker 8: nineteen battery conviction. Carrying a maximum five year prison sentence.
• 46:45
  Speaker 8: He was also charged with drug possession after finding a
• 46:48
  Speaker 8: chalky substance identified as cocaine.
• 46:52
  Speaker 6: Oh got a layers to that story, Yeah, I mean
• 46:55
  Speaker 6: there's always there's always depth to the floridamand stories. Yeah,
• 46:58
  Speaker 6: all right, what you got, Riley?
• 47:00
  Speaker 15: All right?
• 47:00
  Speaker 9: So I'm taking us to New York, New York City
• 47:03
  Speaker 9: homes La Mott, Yeah right, THET Holmes, that's his name,
• 47:08
  Speaker 9: all right. If you're looking for a tracking data or
• 47:12
  Speaker 9: a court ordered anchor ankle monitor, it looks like the
• 47:15
  Speaker 9: person that is prancing around in a backyard and lifting
• 47:17
  Speaker 9: their leg by a bush, it's probably not a human.
• 47:21
  Speaker 6: Did I did read this story and it's fantastic. Criminals
• 47:24
  Speaker 6: are smart.
• 47:25
  Speaker 9: So this man put his ankle monitor on his dog.
• 47:29
  Speaker 9: Authorities figured out, and authorities have not found the man.
• 47:32
  Speaker 9: He has skipped down and skipped his court appearance last week.
• 47:36
  Speaker 9: If you have any information, they want to know about it.
• 47:38
  Speaker 6: Where he is.
• 47:39
  Speaker 9: They don't give us the crime, but from the tracking
• 47:43
  Speaker 9: data and the GPS ankle monitor, they realize he apparently
• 47:45
  Speaker 9: cut it off and just tied it around his dog's leg,
• 47:49
  Speaker 9: and they don't know how long it's been like that.
• 47:50
  Speaker 6: But well they do, so they got, they got, they
• 47:54
  Speaker 6: got a notification that the device had been tampered with,
• 47:56
  Speaker 6: because that that sort of thing does that. And then
• 47:58
  Speaker 6: the guy straps it to the dog and it turns
• 48:01
  Speaker 6: the dog loose. And they didn't say whether or not
• 48:03
  Speaker 6: it was his dog, it was a dog, And then
• 48:06
  Speaker 6: the dog goes running around the neighborhood and police are
• 48:08
  Speaker 6: on a wild dog chase.
• 48:09
  Speaker 9: Is that his prancing around in a backyard? So maybe
• 48:13
  Speaker 9: to neighbor's dog?
• 48:14
  Speaker 6: Maybe so? Or it got in the backyard because that's
• 48:17
  Speaker 6: where all the smells were. Man, that's I respect it, honestly.
• 48:21
  Speaker 7: That's smart.
• 48:23
  Speaker 6: That's not bad. Not shabby bisters, now, not at all.
• 48:26
  Speaker 9: They find him, he will have up to fifteen years
• 48:28
  Speaker 9: behind the bars.
• 48:29
  Speaker 7: Gotta find him first, Gotta find him.
• 48:31
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he's skipped down, kalb. What you got?
• 48:33
  Speaker 5: Well, this is more in the odds category than the
• 48:36
  Speaker 5: cops category and a true only in Montana. Moment UPI
• 48:42
  Speaker 5: reports that police and Great Falls are scratching their heads
• 48:45
  Speaker 5: over a strains discovery in a local park. There was
• 48:48
  Speaker 5: a wooded area in a city park in Great Falls, Montana,
• 48:51
  Speaker 5: where passers by discovered a large, downed log with three
• 48:54
  Speaker 5: bicycles seemingly growing out of it.
• 48:57
  Speaker 6: Okay, so a tree on the ground, Yes, bicycles.
• 49:00
  Speaker 5: It appears that the bicycles were leaned against or placed
• 49:03
  Speaker 5: over a fallen tree years or even decades ago. Over time,
• 49:07
  Speaker 5: the bark and wood of the living tree grew around
• 49:09
  Speaker 5: the metal frames, effectively swallowing the bikes and suspending them
• 49:13
  Speaker 5: in the air as the tree matured and eventually fell.
• 49:17
  Speaker 6: So there's mysterious bicycles embedded in trees.
• 49:20
  Speaker 5: After after an inspection, officers determined the bikes had been
• 49:25
  Speaker 5: part of the tree for so long they are now
• 49:27
  Speaker 5: unrecoverable without destroying the log. Local residents were concerned that
• 49:31
  Speaker 5: they might be stolen property. But it's kind of too
• 49:34
  Speaker 5: late for that.
• 49:34
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, if it's been there long enough that
• 49:36
  Speaker 6: the tree has grown around it, I don't think.
• 49:38
  Speaker 7: That it's a relic now, statute of limitations has probably expired.
• 49:42
  Speaker 6: But what an amazing piece of art that might now,
• 49:44
  Speaker 6: I mean, that's probably look cool.
• 49:46
  Speaker 7: Turned it into an attraction.
• 49:47
  Speaker 6: Yeah, let's see. This is interesting. A UPI report based
• 49:52
  Speaker 6: on TSA announcement highlights the top ten most unusual finds
• 49:57
  Speaker 6: that the Transportation Safety Administration has. The number one discovery
• 50:02
  Speaker 6: on the list goes to a realistic replica pipe bomb
• 50:05
  Speaker 6: found in a checked bag at Boise Airport in May
• 50:07
  Speaker 6: of last year. Not recommended really to take on the road.
• 50:11
  Speaker 7: Nah, I wouldn't try that.
• 50:12
  Speaker 6: I mean, there might be extenuating circumstances. I know that
• 50:15
  Speaker 6: here is part of the Texas A and M University system.
• 50:18
  Speaker 6: The Texas and M University Extension Service has an unexploded ordnance.
• 50:24
  Speaker 6: You know, they do that sort of thing training out there,
• 50:26
  Speaker 6: And so if you're an instructor and you wanted to
• 50:28
  Speaker 6: bring your own replica pipe bomb, I could see that.
• 50:30
  Speaker 6: But if you're just total one around, maybe not so much.
• 50:33
  Speaker 6: The officers found PBC pipes and wooden blocks wrapped in
• 50:37
  Speaker 6: brown paper labeled C four with wires sticking out. The
• 50:41
  Speaker 6: passenger claimed the items were merely training aids and abandoned
• 50:44
  Speaker 6: them at the checkpoint. So aside from that, the other
• 50:47
  Speaker 6: weird finds in the top ten the turtle bra in Miami, Florida.
• 50:51
  Speaker 6: A woman attempted to smuggle two live turtles through Miami's
• 50:54
  Speaker 6: International Airport by hiding them in her bra. Advanced damaging
• 50:58
  Speaker 6: technology caught the movements out. Sadly, one of the turtles
• 51:01
  Speaker 6: did not survive the ordeal. Oh my god, it's a
• 51:04
  Speaker 6: terrible death to die. Aside from the bra the turtle bra,
• 51:09
  Speaker 6: there was also the pants turtle in Newark, New Jersey,
• 51:12
  Speaker 6: a similar incident. A man was caught with a live
• 51:14
  Speaker 6: turtle wrapped in a blue towel hidden down the front
• 51:17
  Speaker 6: of his pants. Somebody else, oh, he is playing with fire.
• 51:20
  Speaker 6: In Miami, somebody tried to sneak ammunition through in a
• 51:26
  Speaker 6: container of ness Quick chocolate milk powder. Somebody in Fort
• 51:31
  Speaker 6: Worth tried to hide it. A knife in a car seat, Okay,
• 51:37
  Speaker 6: illegal substance is found in shoes at Kona International Airport
• 51:41
  Speaker 6: in Hawaii, and a knife in a knee brace. So rightley,
• 51:44
  Speaker 6: if you have to travel, don't stick a knife down
• 51:47
  Speaker 6: in your boot there that you have to wear. Passenger
• 51:49
  Speaker 6: attempted to hide a knife within their medical knee brace
• 51:52
  Speaker 6: at Quad Cities International Airport. The TSA's key message is
• 51:57
  Speaker 6: don't do it. Civil fines can be up to fifteen thousand.
• 52:00
  Speaker 7: Yeah, they do not play around with that stuff, all right.
• 52:04
  Speaker 8: So this is a story out of Missouri where we
• 52:07
  Speaker 8: have a twenty four year old man that is facing
• 52:09
  Speaker 8: charges after he sold the same two cars multiple times
• 52:13
  Speaker 8: on Facebook Marketplace. Now, the way he did this is
• 52:17
  Speaker 8: he would sell one, then immediately steal it back, and
• 52:20
  Speaker 8: then sell it again.
• 52:22
  Speaker 9: Now that takes commitment.
• 52:25
  Speaker 6: It's a centerprising young man.
• 52:26
  Speaker 8: The cops in Kansas City say that between May and
• 52:29
  Speaker 8: June of last year, he sold two cars to at
• 52:31
  Speaker 8: least eight different people, a twenty thirteen Honda Civic and
• 52:35
  Speaker 8: a twenty thirteen Buick veranou So the cops caught on
• 52:39
  Speaker 8: after they got eight different stolen vehicle reports that were similar.
• 52:43
  Speaker 8: The people paid cash, got what seemed like a legit
• 52:46
  Speaker 8: title for the car, and then it was stolen, usually
• 52:49
  Speaker 8: the next day. He got caught after he tried to
• 52:51
  Speaker 8: sell the same car to the same buyer twice. A
• 52:54
  Speaker 8: woman he scammed saw the car for sale again, used
• 52:58
  Speaker 8: a different Facebook account to reach out, and he tried
• 53:00
  Speaker 8: to sell it to her a second time. She also
• 53:03
  Speaker 8: got security footage of him stealing the car around one am,
• 53:07
  Speaker 8: just seven.
• 53:07
  Speaker 7: Hours after he sold it to her.
• 53:09
  Speaker 8: So he's facing fourteen felony charges and up to ninety
• 53:13
  Speaker 8: eight years in jail.
• 53:14
  Speaker 6: Well props to this woman right who baited him in
• 53:17
  Speaker 6: get it to her own hands. Sure enough, Riley, what
• 53:19
  Speaker 6: you got?
• 53:20
  Speaker 9: So I'm gonna take us to Miami where it's a
• 53:22
  Speaker 9: pretty similar story.
• 53:23
  Speaker 6: We're going to Miami.
• 53:26
  Speaker 9: A thirty seven year old woman in Miami requested a
• 53:28
  Speaker 9: lift from a dollar a family dollar store last week.
• 53:32
  Speaker 9: When the driver arrived, she stole.
• 53:34
  Speaker 6: The car from the ride shair drive, Yes, it's okay
• 53:37
  Speaker 6: in this car.
• 53:38
  Speaker 9: She drove herself home, where she was later found by
• 53:40
  Speaker 9: the police. Her name was Lindsay. I'm not even try
• 53:44
  Speaker 9: to her last name. When she ordered the lift, she
• 53:47
  Speaker 9: asked him to help her load her bags in the back,
• 53:51
  Speaker 9: she snuck up to the front and just took off
• 53:53
  Speaker 9: in the Honda.
• 53:54
  Speaker 6: Sounds like she was planning that in advance. Yeah, yes,
• 53:57
  Speaker 6: well she was planning in them. What was the long game?
• 54:00
  Speaker 6: The long game was she was gonna give herself a
• 54:02
  Speaker 6: good rating on the lift surface.
• 54:04
  Speaker 7: Yeah, well, she.
• 54:04
  Speaker 9: Didn't get far. The driver saw this iPhone in the
• 54:06
  Speaker 9: vehicle used find my iPhone to find her whenever she
• 54:10
  Speaker 9: drove herself home. The police arrived and she admitted to
• 54:13
  Speaker 9: stealing it. But that's not all they found on her.
• 54:16
  Speaker 9: She had a glass pink pipe with cocaine residue in
• 54:20
  Speaker 9: her purse and Xanax in her purse inside the car.
• 54:23
  Speaker 7: Called me shocked.
• 54:24
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm actually kind of shocked that it wasn't something worse,
• 54:28
  Speaker 6: you know, because I mean Florida, that's yeah. You never
• 54:31
  Speaker 6: know what they're gonna get down there. No, all right,
• 54:34
  Speaker 6: let's go to Arkansas. And this isn't really a criminal case.
• 54:36
  Speaker 6: But we talk about AI all of the time. Uh,
• 54:39
  Speaker 6: and this will probably be our last story here. A
• 54:42
  Speaker 6: Texas man used AI to find a over two carried
• 54:45
  Speaker 6: diamond at the Crater of Diamond State Park.
• 54:46
  Speaker 7: Have you guys I've been there?
• 54:47
  Speaker 12: Have you read?
• 54:48
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I've been.
• 54:48
  Speaker 6: Murfreesboro, Arkansas. I always wanted to go there, but nobody.
• 54:52
  Speaker 8: In my family wanted to get Parretts took me there.
• 54:54
  Speaker 8: It's been a long time. I was much younger.
• 54:56
  Speaker 6: But essentially, you got there, you dig in the dirt,
• 54:58
  Speaker 6: you sift it out and see if I didn't find anything.
• 55:00
  Speaker 8: I remember this dude had like this giant hole, doug
• 55:03
  Speaker 8: like it was taller than he was, and he's just
• 55:05
  Speaker 8: down in there like he was committed to that.
• 55:07
  Speaker 6: Yeah, they find stuff all the time. On December of
• 55:09
  Speaker 6: last year, Austin Ward asked his mother Elizabeth, if there
• 55:12
  Speaker 6: was anywhere nearby that they could go mine for crystals.
• 55:16
  Speaker 6: Elizabeth suggested ask Siri, and Siri said you should go
• 55:19
  Speaker 6: to creator of Diamond State Park in Murphysboro. So he
• 55:22
  Speaker 6: ended up getting a over to Carrot Diamond there. Not
• 55:26
