  it's
• 1:24
  it.

  I'll

  say
• 1:26
  this,
• 1:26
  Mike,
• 1:26
  I
• 1:27
  was
• 1:27

• 1:27
  with
• 1:28
  Marco
• 1:28

• 1:29
  Rob,
• 1:29
  who
• 1:29
  are
• 1:29
  all
• 1:30
  on

  hold
• 1:30
  waiting.
• 1:31
  Marco

  Rob
• 1:32
  Werdan

  Matt
• 1:34
  Brust
• 1:35
  here
• 1:35
  on
• 1:35
  Long
• 1:36
  Island.
• 1:36
  But
• 1:37
  we
• 1:37
  were
• 1:37
  in
• 1:37
  touch
• 1:38
  back
• 1:38
  in
• 1:39
  November
• 1:40
  to
• 1:40
  do
• 1:40
  this
• 1:41
  date.
• 1:41
  And
• 1:41
  this
• 1:41
  date
• 1:42
  was
• 1:42
  supposed
• 1:42
  to
• 1:42
  be
• 1:42
  the
• 1:43
  100th
• 1:43
  birthday
• 1:44
  of
• 1:44
  Lou
• 1:44
  Carnesecca
• 1:45
  and
• 1:45
  we
• 1:45
  were
• 1:46
  going
• 1:46
  to
• 1:46
  come
• 1:46
  on
• 1:46
  and
• 1:46
  talk
• 1:46
  about
• 1:47
  his
• 1:47
  life
• 1:47
  and
• 1:47
  for
• 1:48
  his
• 1:48
  birthday
• 1:48
  to
• 1:48
  celebrate.
• 1:50
  And
• 1:50
  when
• 1:50
  you
• 1:50
  didn't
• 1:50
  make
• 1:51
  it
• 1:51
  there,
• 1:51
  I
• 1:51
  actually
• 1:51
  the
• 1:52
  first
• 1:52
  I
• 1:52
  got,
• 1:52
  I
• 1:52
  think
• 1:53
  was
• 1:53
  Rob
• 1:53
  sent
• 1:53
  me
• 1:53
  a
• 1:54
  message
• 1:54
  saying,
• 1:54
  hey,
• 1:54
  tough
• 1:55
  day
• 1:55
  for
• 1:55
  St.
• 1:55
  John's
• 1:56
  but
• 1:56
  you
• 1:56
  know
• 1:57
  what?
• 1:57
  I
• 1:57
  think
• 1:57
  waiting
• 1:58
  those
• 1:58
  six
• 1:58
  weeks
• 1:58
  since
• 1:59
  his
• 1:59
  passing,
• 2:00
  we've
• 2:00
  kind
• 2:00
  of
• 2:00
  been
• 2:00
  able
• 2:01
  to
• 2:01
  see
• 2:02
  how
• 2:02
  people
• 2:02
  adored
• 2:03
  him
• 2:03
  and
• 2:04
  all
• 2:04
  the
• 2:04
  great
• 2:04
  stuff
• 2:04
  about
• 2:05
  him
• 2:05
  and
• 2:05
  you
• 2:05
  know,
• 2:05
  people
• 2:06
  wearing
• 2:06
  sweaters
• 2:06
  yesterday
• 2:07
  and
• 2:08
  just
• 2:08
  the
• 2:09
  tributes
• 2:09
  to
• 2:09
  Coach
• 2:09
  Carneseca.
• 2:10
  And
• 2:10
  I
• 2:10
  think
• 2:11
  now
• 2:11
  we've
• 2:11
  had
• 2:11
  some
• 2:11
  time
• 2:12
  to
• 2:13
  get
• 2:13
  away
• 2:13
  from
• 2:13
  some
• 2:13
  of
• 2:14
  the
• 2:14
  sting
• 2:14
  of
• 2:14
  it
• 2:14
  and
• 2:15
  now
• 2:15
  we
• 2:15
  can
• 2:15
  really
• 2:15
  enjoy
• 2:16

• 2:16
  life
• 2:17

• 3:49
  you
• 3:49
  been
• 3:49
  a
• 3:49
  big.
• 3:50
  Had
• 3:50
  you
• 3:50
  been
• 3:50
  in
• 3:50
  touch
• 3:51
  with
• 3:51
  Coach?
• 3:51
  Actually,
• 3:52
  that's
• 3:52
  my
• 3:52
  first
• 3:52
  question
• 3:53
  recently.
• 3:56
  For.
• 3:57
  Having
• 3:57
  all
• 3:58
  three
• 3:58
  of
• 3:58
  us
• 3:58
  on.
• 3:59
  Matt
• 4:00
  is
• 4:00
  kind
• 4:00
  of
• 4:00
  the
• 4:00
  connector
• 4:01
  here.
• 4:01
  Both
• 4:02
  Marco
• 4:02
  played
• 4:02
  with
• 4:03
  Matt
• 4:03
  and
• 4:04
  I
• 4:04
  played
• 4:04
  with
• 4:04
  Matt,
• 4:05
  and
• 4:05
  I
• 4:05
  never
• 4:05
  played
• 4:06
  with
• 4:06
  Marco,
• 4:06
  but
• 4:07
  he's
• 4:08
  the
• 4:08
  connector
• 4:08
  with
• 4:08
  this
• 4:09
  group
• 4:09
  and.
• 4:10
  But
• 4:10
  again,
• 4:10
  thanks
• 4:10
  for
• 4:11
  having
• 4:11
  us
• 4:11
  on.
• 4:12
  Yeah,
• 4:13
  it
• 4:13
  was
• 4:14
  great.
• 4:14
  I
• 4:14
  mean,
• 4:14
  last
• 4:15
  February,
• 4:15
  I
• 4:15
  went
• 4:16
  up
• 4:16
  to
• 4:16
  New
• 4:16
  York
• 4:18
  with
• 4:18
  the
• 4:18
  intention
• 4:18
  of
• 4:19
  seeing
• 4:19
  Coach.
• 4:19
  I
• 4:19
  mean,
• 4:20
  that
• 4:20
  was
• 4:20
  the
• 4:20
  real
• 4:20
  reason
• 4:21
  to
• 4:21
  go.
• 4:21
  And
• 4:22
  I
• 4:22
  was
• 4:22
  going
• 4:22
  to
• 4:22
  take
• 4:22
  in
• 4:23
  a
• 4:23
  St.
• 4:23
  John's
• 4:23
  game
• 4:24
  as
• 4:24
  well.
• 4:24
  But,
• 4:25
  you
• 4:25
  know,
• 4:26
  I
• 4:26
  went
• 4:26
  over
• 4:26
  to
• 4:26
  coach's
• 4:27
  house
• 4:27
  and
• 4:27
  we
• 4:27
  spent.
• 4:28
  He
• 4:28
  gave
• 4:28
  me
• 4:28
  an
• 4:28
  hour
• 4:28
  and
• 4:29
  a
• 4:29
  half
• 4:29
  of
• 4:29
  his
• 4:29
  time.
• 4:30
  We
• 4:30
  sat
• 4:30
  around
• 4:30
  drinking
• 4:31
  coffee
• 4:31
  and
• 4:33
  eating
• 4:33
  cakes
• 4:34
  and
• 4:34
  it
• 4:35
  was
• 4:35
  a
• 4:35
  wonderful,
• 4:35
  wonderful
• 4:36
  time.
• 4:37
  And,
• 4:37
  you
• 4:38
  know,
• 4:38
  one
• 4:38
  of
• 4:38
  my
• 4:38
  cherished
• 4:39
  memories.
• 4:40
  You
• 4:40
  know,
• 4:40
  I'm
• 4:41
  glad
• 4:41
  I
• 4:41
  got
• 4:41
  to
• 4:41
  see
• 4:42
  him,
• 4:42
  you
• 4:43
  know,
• 4:43
  in
• 4:44
  a
• 4:44
  short
• 4:44
  span
• 4:44
  before
• 4:46
  he
• 4:46
  passed.
• 4:47
  And
• 4:48
  it
• 4:48
  was
• 4:49
  a
• 4:49
  sad
• 4:49
  time.
• 4:50
  Absolutely.
• 4:51
  And
• 4:51
  as
• 4:52
  we
• 4:52
  mentioned,
• 4:52
  Matt,
• 4:53
  Matt
• 4:53
  Brust,
• 4:54
  we
• 4:55
  spoke
• 4:55
  to
• 4:55
  you
• 4:55
  a
• 4:55
  couple
• 4:55
  of
• 4:56
  months
• 4:56
  ago
• 4:56
  and
• 4:56
  talked
• 4:57
  about
• 4:57
  a
• 4:57
  variety
• 4:57
  of
• 4:58
  things,
• 4:58
  but
• 4:58
  also
• 4:58
  about
• 4:58
  the
• 4:59
  state
• 4:59
  of
• 4:59
  St.
• 4:59
  John's
• 5:00
  basketball.
• 5:00
  Welcome
• 5:01
  back
• 5:01
  to
• 5:01
  the
• 5:01
  program,
• 5:01
  Matt.
• 5:03
  Thanks,
• 5:03
  guys
• 5:03
  for
• 5:04
  having
• 5:04
  me.
• 5:04
  And
• 5:05
  it's
• 5:05
  great
• 5:06
  to
• 5:06
  hear
• 5:06
  from
• 5:07
  both
• 5:07
  my
• 5:07
  teammates,
• 5:08
  Marco
• 5:08
  and
• 5:09
  Rob.
• 5:10
  Excellent.
• 5:11
  And
• 5:11
  Matt,
• 5:11
  you
• 5:12
  know,
• 5:12
  I
• 5:12
  think
• 5:13
  I
• 5:13
  don't
• 5:13
  want
• 5:13
  to
• 5:14
  say
• 5:14
  one
• 5:14
  of
• 5:14
  you
• 5:14
  is
• 5:15
  closer
• 5:15
  than
• 5:15
  the
• 5:15
  others,
• 5:16
  but
• 5:16
  there's
• 5:16
  been
• 5:17
  so
• 5:17
  many
• 5:17
  stories.
• 5:17
  Matt
• 5:18
  of
• 5:19
  how
• 5:19
  much
• 5:20
  you
• 5:20
  had
• 5:20
  a
• 5:20
  connection
• 5:21
  and
• 5:21
  how
• 5:22
  much
• 5:22
  Coach
• 5:23
  Carneseca
• 5:23
  was
• 5:24
  like
• 5:24
  a
• 5:24
  dad
• 5:24
  to
• 5:24
  you.
• 5:24
  Can
• 5:25
  you
• 5:25
  talk
• 5:25
  a
• 5:25
  little
• 5:25
  bit
• 5:25
  about
• 5:25
  that?
• 5:27
  Sure.
• 5:29
  It's
• 5:29
  really
• 5:29
  not
• 5:30
  hard
• 5:30
  to
• 5:31
  get
• 5:31
  into
• 5:32
  what
• 5:33
  Coach
• 5:33
  meant
• 5:34
  to
• 5:34
  me.
• 5:36
  I
• 5:36
  really
• 5:36
  had
• 5:36
  a
• 5:37
  terrific
• 5:37
  relationship
• 5:38
  with
• 5:38
  him
• 5:39
  as
• 5:39
  a
• 5:40
  player.
• 5:41
  As
• 5:41
  we
• 5:41
  talked
• 5:42
  about
• 5:43
  in
• 5:43
  the
• 5:44
  last
• 5:44
  show
• 5:44
  we
• 5:44
  did,
• 5:45
  I
• 5:45
  transferred
• 5:46
  out
• 5:46
  of
• 5:47
  North
• 5:47
  Carolina
• 5:47
  and
• 5:48
  had
• 5:49
  difficulty
• 5:49
  with
• 5:49
  Dean
• 5:50
  Smith,
• 5:50
  and
• 5:51
  it
• 5:51
  just
• 5:51
  wasn't
• 5:52
  a
• 5:52
  fit
• 5:52
  for
• 5:52
  me.
• 5:53
  And
• 5:54
  at
• 5:54
  the
• 5:55
  time,
• 5:55
  St.
• 5:55
  John's
• 5:56
  was
• 5:56
  ranked
• 5:57
  number
• 5:57
  one.
• 5:57
  And
• 5:58
  I
• 5:59
  just
• 5:59
  remember
• 5:59
  going
• 5:59
  to
• 6:00
  Coach
• 6:00
  Smith
• 6:00
  and
• 6:00
  he
• 6:01
  wanted
• 6:01
  to
• 6:01
  send
• 6:01
  me
• 6:02
  to
• 6:02
  Indiana,
• 6:03
  and
• 6:03
  he
• 6:03
  mentioned
• 6:04
  Hofstra
• 6:04
  or
• 6:04
  something
• 6:05
  like
• 6:05
  that,
• 6:05
  if
• 6:06
  I
• 6:06
  recall
• 6:06
  correctly.
• 6:08
  But
• 6:08
  I
• 6:09
  just
• 6:09
  said,
• 6:09
  I
• 6:09
  want
• 6:09
  to
• 6:09
  go
• 6:09
  to
• 6:09
  St.
• 6:10
  John's
• 6:10
  and
• 6:11
  he
• 6:11
  said,
• 6:11
  well,
• 6:11
  I
• 6:11
  don't
• 6:11
  think
• 6:12
  they're
• 6:12
  really
• 6:12
  going
• 6:12
  to
• 6:12
  want
• 6:12
  you.
• 6:13
  They're
• 6:13
  ranked
• 6:13
  number
• 6:13
  one.
• 6:14
  They're
• 6:14
  loaded.
• 6:15
  Let
• 6:15
  me
• 6:15
  make
• 6:16
  some
• 6:16
  calls.
• 6:16
  I
• 6:16
  said,
• 6:16
  well,
• 6:17
  you
• 6:17
  make
• 6:17
  your
• 6:17
  call.
• 6:18
  I'm
• 6:18
  going
• 6:18
  to
• 6:18
  call
• 6:18
  Coach
• 6:19
  Carr
• 6:19
  in
• 6:19
  a
• 6:19
  second.
• 6:20
  And
• 6:21
  I
• 6:21
  hadn't
• 6:21
  spoke
• 6:21
  to
• 6:22
  Coach
• 6:22
  Carneseca
• 6:24
  prior
• 6:24
  to
• 6:25
  that
• 6:25
  until
• 6:27
  he
• 6:27
  was
• 6:27
  recruiting
• 6:27
  me
• 6:28
  in
• 6:28
  high
• 6:28
  school.
• 6:29
  But
• 6:29
  I
• 6:30
  got
• 6:30
  the
• 6:30
  call
• 6:30
  through,
• 6:31
  and
• 6:32
  he
• 6:32
  just
• 6:32
  said,
• 6:33
  how
• 6:33
  fast
• 6:33
  can
• 6:33
  you
• 6:33
  get
• 6:33
  up
• 6:34
  here?
• 6:34
  And
• 6:34
  I
• 6:34
  said,
• 6:35
  I'll
• 6:35
  be
• 6:35
  there
• 6:35
  tomorrow.
• 6:36
  And
• 6:38
  it
• 6:38
  was
• 6:38
  a
• 6:38
  very,
• 6:39
  very
• 6:39
  emotional
• 6:41
  meeting.
• 6:42
  I
• 6:43
  was
• 6:43
  clearly
• 6:44
  in
• 6:44
  bad
• 6:44
  shape
• 6:46
  as
• 6:46
  a
• 6:46
  player
• 6:47
  and
• 6:47
  a
• 6:47
  person.
• 6:47
  And
• 6:49
  coach,
• 6:50
  just
• 6:51
  in
• 6:51
  his
• 6:52
  typical
• 6:52
  fashion,
• 6:53
  embraced
• 6:53
  me
• 6:54
  as
• 6:55
  a
• 6:55
  young
• 6:55
  person,
• 6:57
  took
• 6:57
  me
• 6:57
  in.
• 6:58
  And
• 6:58
  what
• 6:59
  do
• 6:59
  you
• 6:59
  say
• 7:00
  about
• 7:01
  the
• 7:01
  man
• 7:01
  that
• 7:02
  virtually
• 7:03
  saved
• 7:03
  your
• 7:03
  life?
• 7:05
  I'm
• 7:06
  positive,
• 7:07
  and
• 7:07
  I'm
• 7:07
  sure
• 7:08
  Marco
• 7:08
  could
• 7:08
  tell
• 7:08
  a
• 7:08
  few
• 7:09
  stories
• 7:09
  about
• 7:09
  me,
• 7:10
  but
• 7:10
  I
• 7:11
  know
• 7:11
  I
• 7:11
  wouldn't
• 7:11
  be
• 7:12
  here
• 7:12
  without
• 7:12
  Coach
• 7:12
  Graniceca
• 7:13
  for
• 7:13
  sure.
• 7:14
  And,
• 7:14
  Marco,
• 7:15
  hopefully
• 7:15
  you're
• 7:15
  still
• 7:16
  hearing
• 7:16
  this.
• 7:16
  Okay.
• 7:17
  We're
• 7:17
  trying
• 7:17
  our
• 7:17
  best
• 7:17
  to
• 7:17
  get
• 7:19
  all
• 7:19
  that.
• 7:20
  Can
• 7:20
  you
• 7:20
  talk
• 7:21
  a
• 7:21
  little
• 7:21
  bit
• 7:21
  about
• 7:21
  your
• 7:22
  first
• 7:22
  impressions?
• 7:22
  Because
• 7:23
  you
• 7:23
  came
• 7:23
  over
• 7:23
  to
• 7:23
  the
• 7:23
  United
• 7:24
  States,
• 7:24
  played
• 7:24
  a
• 7:24
  year
• 7:24
  of
• 7:25
  high
• 7:25
  school
• 7:25
  ball
• 7:25
  in
• 7:25
  California,
• 7:26
  a
• 7:26
  year
• 7:26
  at
• 7:27
  Lehigh
• 7:27
  under
• 7:28
  Coach
• 7:28
  McKillop.
• 7:29
  Can
• 7:29
  you
• 7:29
  talk
• 7:29
  about
• 7:29
  your
• 7:29
  first
• 7:30
  impressions
• 7:31
  and
• 7:31
  meeting
• 7:33
  Coach
• 7:33
  Carneseca?
• 7:34
  And
• 7:34
  I
• 7:34
  know,
• 7:34
  I'm
• 7:35
  glad
• 7:35
  you're
• 7:35
  able
• 7:35
  to
• 7:35
  hear
• 7:36
  what
• 7:36
  some
• 7:36
  of
• 7:36
  your
• 7:36
  teammates
• 7:37
  are
• 7:37
  saying
• 7:37
  as
• 7:37
  well.
• 7:39
  Well,
• 7:39
  my
• 7:39
  first
• 7:40
  impression
• 7:40
  was
• 7:43
  when
• 7:43
  I
• 7:43
  made
• 7:44
  the
• 7:44
  switch
• 7:44
  from
• 7:44
  the
• 7:44
  west
• 7:45
  coast
• 7:45
  to
• 7:45
  the
• 7:45
  East
• 7:45
  Coast,
• 7:46
  Obviously,
• 7:46
  playing
• 7:46
  for
• 7:47
  Coach
• 7:47
  McKillop,
• 7:48
  it
• 7:48
  took
• 7:49
  me
• 7:49
  to
• 7:49
  see
• 7:49
  many
• 7:50
  games
• 7:50
  at
• 7:51
  the
• 7:51
  garden,
• 7:51
  to
• 7:52
  see
• 7:52
  St.
• 7:52
  John's
• 7:53
  back
• 7:53
  then
• 7:53
  was
• 7:54
  the
• 7:54
  team
• 7:54
  that
• 7:55
  made
• 7:55
  it
• 7:55
  to
• 7:55
  the
• 7:55
  Final
• 7:56
  Four.
• 7:56
  So
• 7:56
  it
• 7:56
  wasn't
• 7:57
  hard
• 7:58
  to
• 7:58
  look
• 7:59
  up
• 7:59
  to
• 7:59
  these
• 7:59
  guys
• 8:00
  and
• 8:00
  saying,
• 8:00
  wow,
• 8:01
  this
• 8:01
  is
• 8:01
  like
• 8:02
  the
• 8:02
  top,
• 8:03
  like
• 8:03
  a
• 8:03
  treat,
• 8:04
  you
• 8:04
  know,
• 8:04
  I
• 8:04
  don't
• 8:05
  think
• 8:05
  there's
• 8:05
  anything
• 8:05
  better
• 8:06
  past
• 8:07
  this.
• 8:07
  So
• 8:07
  it
• 8:07
  was
• 8:08
  kind
• 8:08
  of,
• 8:08
  for
• 8:08
  me,
• 8:10
  hard
• 8:11
  Even
• 8:11
  to
• 8:12
  imagine
• 8:12
  myself
• 8:13
  part
• 8:13
  of
• 8:13
  that
• 8:14
  group.
• 8:15
  So.
• 8:16
  But
• 8:16
  fortunately,
• 8:17
  I
• 8:17
  had
• 8:17
  many
• 8:17
  offers
• 8:18
  from
• 8:18
  many
• 8:18
  different
• 8:19
  schools
• 8:19
  and
• 8:19
  everybody,
• 8:20
  all
• 8:20
  the
• 8:21
  newspaper
• 8:22
  and
• 8:22
  everybody's,
• 8:23
  they
• 8:24
  keep
• 8:24
  calling
• 8:24
  in
• 8:25
  and
• 8:25
  asking
• 8:25
  me
• 8:26
  when
• 8:26
  I
• 8:26
  was
• 8:26
  going
• 8:26
  to
• 8:26
  sign
• 8:27
  the
• 8:27
  letter
• 8:27
  of
• 8:28
  intent
• 8:28
  for
• 8:30
  one
• 8:30
  school
• 8:31
  or
• 8:31
  the
• 8:31
  other.
• 8:31
  But
• 8:32
  I
• 8:32
  remember
• 8:33
  when
• 8:33
  I
• 8:33
  took
• 8:34
  my
• 8:34
  trip
• 8:34
  to
• 8:35
  St.
• 8:35
  John's
• 8:36
  and
• 8:36
  I
• 8:36
  met
• 8:37
  Coach
• 8:38
  before
• 8:39
  leaving,
• 8:40
  I,
• 8:41
  you
• 8:41
  know,
• 8:42
  I
• 8:42
  met
• 8:42
  him
• 8:42
  and
• 8:43
  I
• 8:43
  learned
• 8:44
  everything
• 8:44
  about
• 8:44
  him
• 8:45
  personally.
• 8:46
  And
• 8:46
  I
• 8:46
  just
• 8:47
  shook
• 8:47
  his
• 8:47
  hand.
• 8:47
  I
• 8:48
  said,
• 8:48
  okay,
• 8:48
  Coach,
• 8:48
  this
• 8:49
  is,
• 8:49
  you
• 8:50
  know,
• 8:50
  I
• 8:50
  give
• 8:50
  you
• 8:51
  my
• 8:51
  word,
• 8:51
  I'll
• 8:51
  be
• 8:51
  here.
• 8:52
  So
• 8:52
  the
• 8:52
  next
• 8:52
  day
• 8:52
  when
• 8:53
  everybody
• 8:53
  called,
• 8:53
  I
• 8:53
  said,
• 8:54
  did
• 8:54
  you
• 8:54
  sign?
• 8:54
  I
• 8:54
  said,
• 8:54
  no,
• 8:55
  I
• 8:55
  did
• 8:55
  not
• 8:55
  sign,
• 8:56
  but
• 8:56
  I
• 8:56
  will
• 8:57
  go
• 8:57
  to
• 8:57
  St.
• 8:57
  John's
• 8:58
  he
• 8:58
  said,
• 8:58
  yeah,
• 8:58
  but
• 8:58
  he
• 8:58
  just
• 8:59
  said
• 9:00
  he
• 9:00
  didn't
• 9:00
  sign.
• 9:00
  I
• 9:01
  said,
• 9:01
  look,
• 9:02
  my
• 9:02
  word
• 9:03
  is
• 9:04
  more
• 9:04
  than,
• 9:04
  you
• 9:04
  know,
• 9:05
  signing,
• 9:05
  because
• 9:05
  I
• 9:06
  gave
• 9:06
  my
• 9:06
  word
• 9:06
  to
• 9:06
  that
• 9:07
  man.
• 9:07
  I'm
• 9:07
  not
• 9:07
  going
• 9:07
  to
• 9:07
  double
• 9:08
  cross
• 9:08
  him
• 9:08
  at
• 9:08
  night.
• 9:09
  And
• 9:09
  I
• 9:09
  think
• 9:09
  was
• 9:10
  one
• 9:10
  of
• 9:10
  the
• 9:10
  best
• 9:10
  moves
• 9:10
  I
• 9:11
  ever
• 9:11
  made.
• 9:13
  And
• 9:13
  Rob,
• 9:14
  you
• 9:14
  went
• 9:15
  to
• 9:15
  Archbishop
• 9:15
  Malloy,
• 9:16
  which
• 9:16
  is,
• 9:17
  interestingly
• 9:17
  enough,
• 9:18
  a
• 9:18
  place
• 9:18
  where
• 9:19
  Luke
• 9:19
  Carnesecca
• 9:20
  went
• 9:20
  to
• 9:20
  school
• 9:20
  and
• 9:20
  coached.
• 9:21
  Just
• 9:21
  happened
• 9:21
  to
• 9:21
  be
• 9:21
  under
• 9:22
  the
• 9:22
  name
• 9:22
  St.
• 9:22
  Anne's
• 9:23
  can
• 9:23
  you
• 9:23
  talk
• 9:23
  about
• 9:23
  your
• 9:24
  transition
• 9:24
  of
• 9:25
  choosing
• 9:25
  St.
• 9:26
  John's
• 9:26
  out
• 9:27
  of
• 9:27
  Archbishop
• 9:27
  Malloy?
• 9:29
  Well,
• 9:29
  I'll
• 9:29
  tell
• 9:30
  you,
• 9:30
  that's
• 9:30
  probably
• 9:30
  the
• 9:30
  thing
• 9:31
  that
• 9:31
  stands
• 9:32
  out
• 9:32
  most
• 9:33
  with
• 9:34
  regard
• 9:34
  to
• 9:35
  my
• 9:35
  memories
• 9:36
  of
• 9:36
  coach,
• 9:37
  the
• 9:37
  recruitment
• 9:38
  process.
• 9:40
  I
• 9:40
  was
• 9:40
  recruited
• 9:41
  By
• 9:42
  My
• 9:42
  last
• 9:43
  five
• 9:43
  schools
• 9:43
  were
• 9:43
  Duke,
• 9:44
  Georgia
• 9:44
  Tech,
• 9:45
  Notre
• 9:45
  Dame,
• 9:47
  St.
• 9:47
  John's
• 9:48
  and
• 9:48
  Northwestern.
• 9:50
  In
• 9:50
  the
• 9:51
  summertime,
• 9:51
  we
• 9:52
  had
• 9:52
  a
• 9:52
  local
• 9:52
  Pro
• 9:53
  Am
• 9:53
  in
• 9:53
  my
• 9:54
  neighborhood
• 9:55
  and
• 9:56
  coach
• 9:56
  and
• 9:57
  his
• 9:57
  entire
• 9:58
  staff,
• 9:58
  Brian
• 9:58
  Mahoney,
• 9:59
  Ronnie
• 9:59
  Rutledge,
• 10:01
  those
• 10:01
  guys
• 10:01
  would
• 10:01
  come
• 10:02
  to
• 10:02
  my
• 10:02
  summer
• 10:02
  league
• 10:03
  games.
• 10:03
  I
• 10:03
  mean,
• 10:03
  we
• 10:03
  played
• 10:03
  it
• 10:04
  Tuesdays
• 10:04
  and
• 10:04
  sometimes
• 10:05
  Thursday
• 10:05
  nights
• 10:06
  from
• 10:06
  6:00
• 10:07
  to
• 10:07
  whatever
• 10:08
  7:30
• 10:09
  game.
• 10:10
  And
• 10:11
  they
• 10:11
  were
• 10:11
  there
• 10:11
  and
• 10:12
  they
• 10:12
  were
• 10:12
  making
• 10:13
  merry
• 10:13
  with
• 10:13
  all
• 10:13
  the
• 10:14
  guys
• 10:14
  in
• 10:14
  my
• 10:15
  neighborhood,
• 10:15
  all
• 10:15
  the
• 10:15
  guys
• 10:16
  that
• 10:16
  hung
• 10:16
  out
• 10:17
  down
• 10:17
  the
• 10:17
  corner,
• 10:18
  hung
• 10:18
  out
• 10:18
  in
• 10:18
  the
• 10:18
  schoolyard,
• 10:19
  played
• 10:19
  in
• 10:19
  the
• 10:20
  Pro
• 10:20
  Am,
• 10:20
  and
• 10:21
  coach
• 10:21
  was
• 10:21
  there.
• 10:22
  So
• 10:23
  it
• 10:24
  felt
• 10:24
  like
• 10:25
  by
• 10:26
  going
• 10:26
  to
• 10:26
  St.
• 10:26
  John's
• 10:27
  which
• 10:27
  was
• 10:27
  only
• 10:27
  like
• 10:27
  a
• 10:27
  couple
• 10:28
  miles
• 10:28
  away
• 10:28
  from
• 10:28
  Archbishop
• 10:29
  Malloy,
• 10:29
  where
• 10:29
  I
• 10:29
  went
• 10:30
  to
• 10:30
  high
• 10:30
  school,
• 10:31
  I
• 10:31
  felt
• 10:31
  like
• 10:31
  I
• 10:31
  was
• 10:32
  going
• 10:32
  away
• 10:32
  and
• 10:32
  staying
• 10:33
  home
• 10:33
  at
• 10:33
  the
• 10:33
  same
• 10:34
  time.
• 10:34
  And
• 10:35
  Coach
• 10:35
  gave
• 10:35
  me
• 10:37
  such
• 10:37
  a
• 10:38
  great
• 10:38
  feeling
• 10:39
  of
• 10:40
  he
• 10:40
  embraced
• 10:41
  me
• 10:41
  and
• 10:41
  embraced
• 10:41
  my
• 10:41
  family,
• 10:42
  embraced
• 10:42
  my
• 10:43
  whole
• 10:43
  neighborhood
• 10:44
  through
• 10:45
  the
• 10:45
  recruitment
• 10:45
  process,
• 10:46
  and
• 10:46
  that
• 10:47
  was
• 10:47
  it.
• 10:47
  I
• 10:48
  never
• 10:48
  even
• 10:48
  took
• 10:48
  another
• 10:49
  trip
• 10:49
  to
• 10:49
  a
• 10:49
  school
• 10:50
  to
• 10:50
  visit
• 10:51
  a
• 10:51
  campus.
• 10:52
  You
• 10:52
  know,
• 10:52
  it
• 10:52
  was
• 10:53
  going
• 10:53

  be
• 10:53
  St.

• 10:54
  right
• 10:54
  from
• 10:54
  the
• 10:54
  beginning.
• 10:54
  And
• 10:55
  I
• 10:55
  signed
• 10:55
  early.
• 10:55
  I
• 10:55
  signed
• 10:56
  in

  So,

  you
• 10:58
  know,
• 10:59
  I
• 11:00
  knew
• 11:00

• 11:00
  was
• 11:00
  the
• 11:00
  right
• 11:01
  fit.
• 11:01
  And
• 11:02
  it
• 11:02
  was
• 11:02
  because
• 11:03
  of
• 11:03
  Coach

  You've

  for

  a

  while.

  From

  a

  with

  that

  and
• 11:51
  O
• 11:51
  standpoint,
• 11:52
  but
• 11:52
  just,
• 11:53
  I
• 11:53
  guess
• 11:54
  from
• 11:54
  a
• 11:54
  player
• 11:54
  relationship
• 11:55
  standpoint
• 11:55
  with
• 11:55
  your
• 11:56
  players
• 11:56
  that
• 11:56
  you
• 11:56
  took
• 11:57
  from
• 11:57
  your
• 11:57
  relationship
• 11:58
  with
• 11:58
  Coach
• 11:58
  Carneseca?
• 12:01
  Well,
• 12:01
  there
• 12:02
  are
• 12:02
  so
• 12:02
  many
• 12:02
  things
• 12:03
  that
• 12:03
  I
• 12:04
  learned
• 12:05
  from
• 12:05
  Coach
• 12:06
  Cornerseca
• 12:07
  and
• 12:07
  Coach
• 12:07
  Math,
• 12:08
  but
• 12:09
  really,
• 12:09
  Coach
• 12:09
  Cornerseca,
• 12:10
  I
• 12:11
  think
• 12:11
  the
• 12:11
  thing
• 12:11
  that
• 12:12
  made
• 12:12
  him
• 12:14
  really
• 12:15
  a
• 12:15
  magnificent
• 12:16
  person,
• 12:17
  communicator
• 12:19
  was
• 12:19
  his
• 12:20
  ability
• 12:20
  to
• 12:21
  get
• 12:21
  guys
• 12:22
  to
• 12:22
  fight
• 12:23
  and
• 12:23
  to
• 12:24
  play
• 12:24
  hard.
• 12:25
  He
• 12:26
  just
• 12:26
  had
• 12:26
  that
• 12:27
  magnetism,
• 12:29
  all
• 12:29
  five
• 12:30
  foot
• 12:30
  one
• 12:30
  of
• 12:30
  them.
• 12:31
  You
• 12:31
  know,
• 12:32
  he'd
• 12:32
  get
• 12:32
  up
• 12:32
  under
• 12:33
  our
• 12:33
  chins
• 12:33
  and,
• 12:34
  you
• 12:34
  know,
• 12:34
  put
• 12:35
  his
• 12:35
  fist
• 12:36
  up
• 12:36
  to
• 12:36
  your
• 12:36
  chin
• 12:37
  and
• 12:37
  say,
• 12:37
  you
• 12:37
  know,
• 12:37
  you
• 12:38
  get
• 12:38
  back
• 12:38
  in
• 12:38
  there
• 12:38
  and
• 12:38
  you
• 12:39
  fight
• 12:39
  and
• 12:39
  you
• 12:39
  don't
• 12:40
  embarrass
• 12:40
  the
• 12:40
  family.
• 12:41
  And,
• 12:41
  you
• 12:41
  know,
• 12:42
  he
• 12:42
  made
• 12:42
  it
• 12:43
  wonderfully
• 12:43
  personal.
• 12:44
  And
• 12:46
  I'm
• 12:47
  sure,
• 12:47
  you
• 12:47
  know,
• 12:48
  many
• 12:48
  all
• 12:49
  the
• 12:49
  other
• 12:49
  guys
• 12:49
  that
• 12:50
  played
• 12:50
  for
• 12:50
  him,
• 12:51
  you
• 12:51
  know,
• 12:51
  I
• 12:51
  mean,
• 12:51
  he
• 12:51
  got
• 12:52
  guys
• 12:52
  to
• 12:52
  play
• 12:53
  that
• 12:54
  you
• 12:55
  just
• 12:55
  would
• 12:55
  never
• 12:55
  have
• 12:55
  thought
• 12:57
  they
• 12:57
  could
• 12:57
  give
• 12:57
  any
• 12:57
  more.
• 12:58
  And
• 12:58
  he
• 12:58
  just
• 12:58
  got
• 12:58
  so
• 12:58
  much
• 12:59
  more
• 12:59
  out
• 12:59
  of
• 12:59
  all
• 12:59
  of
• 12:59
  us.
• 13:00
  So
• 13:00
  I
• 13:00
  try
• 13:01
  to
• 13:02
  impress
• 13:03
  upon
• 13:03
  my
• 13:04
  players
• 13:06
  the
• 13:07
  reason
• 13:08
  for
• 13:08
  fighting
• 13:09
  for
• 13:09
  something,
• 13:10
  how
• 13:10
  we
• 13:10
  dress
• 13:11
  appropriately.
• 13:13
  But
• 13:13
  mostly
• 13:13
  I
• 13:14
  steal
• 13:14
  the
• 13:14
  sayings
• 13:14
  and
• 13:15
  that
• 13:15
  gets
• 13:15
  a
• 13:15
  few
• 13:15
  laughs.
• 13:17
  Absolutely.
• 13:18
  I'm
• 13:18
  sure
• 13:19
  gonna
• 13:19
  throw
• 13:20
  one
• 13:20
  to
• 13:20
  Marco.
• 13:21
  You,
• 13:21
  you
• 13:22
  know,
• 13:22
  you're
• 13:22
  from
• 13:23
  Italy
• 13:23
  and
• 13:24
  I
• 13:24
  guess,
• 13:24
  yes,
• 13:25
  coach
• 13:25
  has
• 13:25
  the
• 13:25
  Italian
• 13:26
  connection.
• 13:26
  Can
• 13:27
  you
• 13:27
  talk
• 13:27
  a
• 13:27
  little
• 13:27
  bit
• 13:27
  about
• 13:28
  some
• 13:28
  of
• 13:28
  the
• 13:28
  intricacies
• 13:29
  of
• 13:29
  maybe
• 13:30
  something
• 13:30
  that
• 13:30
  you
• 13:30
  guys
• 13:31
  share,
• 13:31
  whether
• 13:31
  it
• 13:32
  be
• 13:32
  wine
• 13:32
  or
• 13:32
  Italian
• 13:33
  food
• 13:33
  or
• 13:33
  something
• 13:34
  that
• 13:34
  you
• 13:34
  guys
• 13:34
  would
• 13:34
  go
• 13:35
  back
• 13:35
  and
• 13:35
  forth
• 13:35
  with
• 13:36
  over
• 13:36
  the
• 13:36
  years
• 13:37
  that
• 13:37
  you
• 13:37
  knew
• 13:37
  him,
• 13:37
  whether
• 13:38
  it
• 13:38
  be
• 13:38
  when
• 13:38
  you
• 13:38
  were
• 13:39
  at
• 13:39
  St.
• 13:39
  John's
• 13:39
  or
• 13:39
  even
• 13:40
  after.
• 13:41
  Well,
• 13:41
  I
• 13:42
  want
• 13:42
  to
• 13:42
  start
• 13:42
  by
• 13:44
  going
• 13:44
  back
• 13:45
  a
• 13:45
  little
• 13:45
  bit
• 13:46
  of
• 13:46
  what
• 13:46
  Matt
• 13:46
  just
• 13:47
  said
• 13:47
  about
• 13:48
  what
• 13:49
  kind
• 13:49
  of
• 13:49
  person,
• 13:50
  what
• 13:50
  kind
• 13:50
  of
• 13:51
  world
• 13:51
  class
• 13:52
  person
• 13:52
  Coach
• 13:52
  Honaseka
• 13:53
  was
• 13:54
  about.
• 13:55
  I'm
• 13:55
  sure
• 13:56
  he
• 13:56
  did
• 13:56
  this
• 13:56
  with
• 13:56
  all
• 13:57
  these
• 13:57
  players
• 13:57
  and
• 13:58
  all
• 13:58
  these
• 13:58
  Groups
• 13:59
  and
• 13:59
  all
• 13:59
  these
• 13:59
  teams.
• 14:00
  And
• 14:00
  we
• 14:01
  knew
• 14:02
  that
• 14:02
  he
• 14:02
  will
• 14:02
  never
• 14:03
  embarrass
• 14:03
  us
• 14:04
  in
• 14:04
  public.
• 14:06
  He
• 14:06
  always
• 14:06
  took
• 14:06
  the
• 14:07
  blame
• 14:07
  for
• 14:07
  the
• 14:07
  losses,
• 14:08
  and
• 14:08
  he
• 14:08
  always
• 14:11
  underlined
• 14:13
  how
• 14:13
  great
• 14:14
  his
• 14:14
  players
• 14:14
  were
• 14:15
  when,
• 14:15
  you
• 14:15
  know,
• 14:15
  the
• 14:16
  winds
• 14:16
  came
• 14:17
  and
• 14:17
  a
• 14:17
  lot
• 14:17
  of
• 14:17
  them
• 14:17
  came.
• 14:18
  And
• 14:19
  sometimes
• 14:21
  we
• 14:22
  knew,
• 14:22
  you
• 14:22
  know,
• 14:23
  he
• 14:23
  will
• 14:24
  come
• 14:24
  at
• 14:24
  us,
• 14:24
  but
• 14:25
  a
• 14:25
  closed
• 14:25
  door.
• 14:26
  He
• 14:26
  didn't
• 14:26
  want
• 14:26
  anybody
• 14:27
  else
• 14:27
  to
• 14:28
  hear
• 14:28
  what
• 14:28
  he
• 14:28
  had
• 14:29
  to
• 14:29
  say.
• 14:29
  And
• 14:30
  I
• 14:30
  could
• 14:30
  tell
• 14:30
  you
• 14:30
  this
• 14:31
  story
• 14:31
  that
• 14:32
  Matt
• 14:32
  remembers
• 14:33
  well.
• 14:33
  At
• 14:34
  the
• 14:34
  beginning,
• 14:34
  when
• 14:35
  I
• 14:35
  got
• 14:35
  there,
• 14:36
  Coach
• 14:37
  was
• 14:37
  fluent
• 14:38
  in
• 14:38
  Italian,
• 14:38
  spoke
• 14:39
  perfectly
• 14:39
  Italian.
• 14:40
  So
• 14:40
  sometimes
• 14:41
  during
• 14:41
  practice,
• 14:42
  he
• 14:42
  would
• 14:42
  go
• 14:42
  off
• 14:42
  on
• 14:43
  me
• 14:43
  speaking
• 14:44
  Italian.
• 14:44
  All
• 14:45
  the
• 14:45
  other
• 14:45
  guys
• 14:45
  were
• 14:46
  looking
• 14:47
  and
• 14:47
  saying
• 14:48
  what.
• 14:48
  What
• 14:49
  coach
• 14:49
  is
• 14:49
  saying.
• 14:50
  And
• 14:50
  then
• 14:50
  they
• 14:50
  look
• 14:51
  at
• 14:51
  me
• 14:51
  and
• 14:51
  says,
• 14:51
  marco,
• 14:52
  is
• 14:52
  he
• 14:52
  talking
• 14:52
  to
• 14:52
  you?
• 14:53
  And
• 14:53
  I
• 14:53
  said,
• 14:53
  oh,
• 14:53
  yes,
• 14:54
  he's
• 14:54
  talking
• 14:54
  to
• 14:54
  me.
• 14:55
  I
• 14:55
  said,
• 14:55
  what
• 14:56
  is.
• 14:56
  What
• 14:56
  is
• 14:56
  he
• 14:56
  saying?
• 14:57
  And
• 14:57
  I
• 14:57
  got.
• 14:57
  And
• 14:58
  I
• 14:58
  said,
• 14:58
  guys,
• 14:58
  you
• 14:58
  don't
• 14:59
  want
• 14:59
  to
• 14:59
  know.
• 14:59
  Just
• 15:00
  keep
• 15:00
  playing.
• 15:03
  Is
• 15:03
  that
• 15:03
  true,
• 15:03
  Matt?
• 15:06
  Yeah.
• 15:06
  He
• 15:06
  said
• 15:07
  a
• 15:07
  few
• 15:07
  things.
• 15:07
  And
• 15:08
  unfortunately
• 15:09
  for
• 15:09
  Marco,
• 15:11
  and
• 15:12
  I'm
• 15:12
  sure
• 15:12
  Marco
• 15:13
  understands
• 15:13
  this
• 15:14
  as
• 15:14
  a
• 15:14
  coach
• 15:14
  and
• 15:15
  as
• 15:15
  scout
• 15:15
  and
• 15:15
  all
• 15:15
  the
• 15:16
  wonderful
• 15:16
  things
• 15:16
  he's
• 15:16
  doing,
• 15:17
  that
• 15:18
  it
• 15:18
  was
• 15:18
  all
• 15:19
  out
• 15:19
  of
• 15:19
  love,
• 15:20
  and
• 15:20
  it
• 15:20
  was
• 15:20
  just
• 15:21
  to
• 15:23
  get
• 15:23
  him
• 15:23
  motivated
• 15:24
  and
• 15:24
  get
• 15:24
  us
• 15:24
  all
• 15:24
  motivated.
• 15:25
  Marco
• 15:26
  was
• 15:26
  a
• 15:27
  tremendous
• 15:27
  player
• 15:28
  for
• 15:29
  us,
• 15:29
  but
• 15:30
  coach
• 15:30
  had
• 15:30
  a
• 15:30
  lot
• 15:30
  of
• 15:31
  fun
• 15:31
  with
• 15:32
  Marco.
• 15:33
  He
• 15:33
  had
• 15:33
  a
• 15:34
  couple
• 15:34
  of
• 15:34
  interesting
• 15:35
  names
• 15:36
  for
• 15:36
  Marco,
• 15:37
  which
• 15:37
  Marco
• 15:38
  really
• 15:38
  got
• 15:38
  pissed
• 15:38
  off
• 15:39
  about.
• 15:41
  And
• 15:41
  one
• 15:41
  in
• 15:42
  particular,
• 15:42
  you
• 15:42
  know,
• 15:43
  I.
• 15:43
  Think
• 15:43
  I
• 15:43
  had
• 15:43
  to
• 15:43
  hold
• 15:44
  him
• 15:44
  down.
• 15:44
  In
• 15:44
  the
• 15:44
  front
• 15:45
  of
• 15:45
  the
• 15:45
  buns.
• 15:45
  I
• 15:45
  said,
• 15:45
  no,
• 15:45
  he's
• 15:46
  just
• 15:46
  joking.
• 15:48
  He
• 15:48
  walked
• 15:48
  past
• 15:49
  Marco
• 15:50
  and
• 15:50
  he
• 15:50
  said,
• 15:50
  you
• 15:50
  know,
• 15:51
  you
• 15:51
  better
• 15:51
  have
• 15:51
  a
• 15:52
  good
• 15:52
  game
• 15:52
  tonight.
• 15:53
  And
• 15:53
  he

  I'm
• 17:07
  curious,
• 17:07
  from
• 17:08
  your
• 17:08
  standpoint,
• 17:09
  here
• 17:09
  you
• 17:09
  have
• 17:09
  Coach
• 17:09
  Carnesecca
• 17:10
  who,
• 17:10
  of
• 17:10
  course,
• 17:11
  we're
• 17:11
  talking
• 17:11
  about
• 17:11
  his
• 17:12
  personality
• 17:12
  and.
• 17:13
  And
• 17:13
  just
• 17:13
  what
• 17:13
  a
• 17:14
  great
• 17:14
  man
• 17:14
  he
• 17:14
  was.
• 17:16
  Can
• 17:16
  you
• 17:16
  talk
• 17:16
  a
• 17:16
  little
• 17:16
  bit,
• 17:17
  maybe
• 17:17
  from
• 17:17
  an
• 17:18
  X's
• 17:18
  and
• 17:18
  O
• 17:18
  standpoint
• 17:21
  what
• 17:21
  Coach
• 17:22
  brought
• 17:22
  to
• 17:22
  the
• 17:23
  table,
• 17:23
  and
• 17:24
  maybe
• 17:24
  you
• 17:25
  take
• 17:25
  or
• 17:25
  took
• 17:26
  in
• 17:26
  your
• 17:26
  coaching
• 17:27
  to
• 17:27
  where
• 17:28
  people
• 17:28
  knew
• 17:28
  him
• 17:28
  as
• 17:29
  a
• 17:29
  personality,
• 17:29
  but
• 17:30
  let's
• 17:31
  talk
• 17:31
  a
• 17:31
  little
• 17:31
  bit
• 17:31
  more
• 17:31
  just
• 17:32
  about
• 17:32
  his
• 17:32
  knowledge
• 17:32
  of
• 17:32
  the
• 17:33
  game.
• 17:35
  You
• 17:35
  know,
• 17:35
  super
• 17:36
  knowledgeable
• 17:37
  coach.
• 17:37
  I
• 17:37
  mean,
• 17:38
  it's
• 17:39
  funny
• 17:39
  because
• 17:39
  with
• 17:40
  all
• 17:40
  the
• 17:40
  technology
• 17:41
  that
• 17:42
  we
• 17:42
  see
• 17:42
  coaches
• 17:43
  utilizing
• 17:44
  with
• 17:44
  these
• 17:44
  advanced
• 17:45
  analytics
• 17:46
  nowadays
• 17:46
  and
• 17:47
  all
• 17:48
  these
• 17:48
  tablets,
• 17:49
  and
• 17:50
  Coach
• 17:50
  had
• 17:51
  a
• 17:51
  piece
• 17:51
  of
• 17:51
  chalk
• 17:53
  in
• 17:53
  his
• 17:53
  pocket,
• 17:55
  and
• 17:55
  I
• 17:55
  keep
• 17:56
  looking
• 17:56
  back
• 17:56
  and
• 17:56
  maybe
• 17:57
  the
• 17:57
  other
• 17:57
  fellows
• 17:57
  remember
• 17:58
  his
• 17:58
  brown
• 17:59
  pants.
• 17:59
  I
• 17:59
  just
• 17:59
  remember
• 18:00
  his
• 18:00
  brown
• 18:00
  pants.
• 18:01
  And
• 18:01
  he
• 18:01
  had
• 18:02
  that
• 18:02
  piece
• 18:02
  of
• 18:02
  chalk
• 18:02
  and
• 18:03
  chalk
• 18:03
  stains
• 18:03
  all
• 18:04
  over
• 18:04
  it.
• 18:04
  And
• 18:04
  that's
• 18:04
  how
• 18:04
  he
• 18:05
  drew
• 18:05
  up
• 18:05
  our
• 18:06
  after
• 18:06
  timeout
• 18:07
  plays
• 18:09
  and
• 18:09
  coached
• 18:09
  us
• 18:10
  during
• 18:10
  timeouts.
• 18:12
  But.
• 18:13
  And
• 18:13
  he'd
• 18:13
  draw
• 18:13
  him
• 18:14
  right
• 18:14
  on
• 18:14
  the
• 18:14
  court
• 18:15
  and
• 18:15
  then
• 18:15
  he'd
• 18:15
  take
• 18:16
  a
• 18:16
  handkerchief
• 18:17
  out
• 18:17
  of
• 18:17
  his
• 18:17
  other
• 18:17
  pocket
• 18:18
  and
• 18:18
  wipe
• 18:18
  it
• 18:18
  down
• 18:19
  so
• 18:19
  that,
• 18:19
  you
• 18:19
  know,
• 18:19
  I
• 18:19
  guess
• 18:20
  the
• 18:20
  cameras
• 18:20
  couldn't
• 18:20
  see
• 18:21
  it
• 18:21
  or
• 18:21
  what.
• 18:21
  But,
• 18:22
  you
• 18:22
  know,
• 18:23
  he
• 18:23
  was
• 18:24
  super
• 18:24
  knowledgeable
• 18:25
  and
• 18:25
  he
• 18:25
  always
• 18:25
  put
• 18:25
  us
• 18:26
  in
• 18:26
  positions
• 18:28
  where
• 18:29
  we
• 18:29
  could
• 18:29
  succeed
• 18:30
  as
• 18:30
  players.
• 18:31
  I
• 18:31
  mean,
• 18:31
  I
• 18:32
  happened
• 18:32
  to
• 18:32
  be
• 18:32
  a
• 18:33
  good
• 18:33
  passer
• 18:33
  from
• 18:33
  the
• 18:34
  high
• 18:34
  post,
• 18:35
  and
• 18:35
  that
• 18:36
  was
• 18:36
  part
• 18:36
  of
• 18:36
  our
• 18:36
  transition
• 18:37
  game
• 18:37
  in
• 18:38
  college.
• 18:38
  And
• 18:38
  I
• 18:39
  think
• 18:39
  the
• 18:39
  Uggs
• 18:39
  fellows
• 18:39
  ran
• 18:40
  the
• 18:40
  same
• 18:40
  thing.
• 18:40
  Matt
• 18:41
  Markle
• 18:41
  ran
• 18:41
  the
• 18:41
  same
• 18:41
  thing.
• 18:42
  So
• 18:43
  he
• 18:44
  put
• 18:44
  us
• 18:44
  in
• 18:44
  positions
• 18:45
  where
• 18:45
  we
• 18:45
  would
• 18:46
  succeed.
• 18:47
  And
• 18:47
  in
• 18:47
  my
• 18:48
  coaching
• 18:49
  stops,
• 18:50
  you
• 18:50
  know,
• 18:50
  I
• 18:50
  always
• 18:50
  tried
• 18:50
  to
• 18:51
  do
• 18:51
  the
• 18:51
  same
• 18:51
  thing.
• 18:52
  Now,
• 18:52
  I
• 18:52
  wasn't
• 18:52
  as
• 18:53
  creative
• 18:53
  as
• 18:53
  Coach
• 18:54
  was
• 18:54
  with
• 18:54
  his
• 18:55
  words.
• 18:56
  And
• 18:57
  he
• 18:57
  could
• 18:57
  put
• 18:58
  combinations
• 18:58
  of
• 18:59
  words
• 18:59
  getting
• 18:59
  back
• 18:59
  to
• 19:00
  him,
• 19:00
  cursing
• 19:00
  guys
• 19:00
  out
• 19:01
  in
• 19:01
  different
• 19:01
  languages,
• 19:03
  and
• 19:04
  he
• 19:04
  could
• 19:04
  put
• 19:04
  combinations
• 19:05
  of
• 19:05
  words
• 19:06
  together,
• 19:06
  things
• 19:06
  that
• 19:07
  I
• 19:07
  never
• 19:07
  heard.
• 19:08
  And
• 19:09
  they
• 19:09
  were
• 19:09
  funny
• 19:10
  and
• 19:10
  they
• 19:10
  were
• 19:11
  poignant,
• 19:11
  and
• 19:11
  they
• 19:12
  hit
• 19:12
  where
• 19:12
  they
• 19:12
  needed
• 19:13
  to
• 19:13
  hit.
• 19:14
  And
• 19:14
  I
• 19:14
  found
• 19:14
  myself
• 19:15
  doing
• 19:15
  that
• 19:16
  in
• 19:17
  my
• 19:17
  stops
• 19:17
  coaching.
• 19:18
  All
• 19:19
  of
• 19:19
  a
• 19:19
  sudden
• 19:19
  coming
• 19:20
  up
• 19:20
  with
• 19:20
  something
• 19:20
  Coach
• 19:21
  might
• 19:21
  have
• 19:21
  said
• 19:21
  to
• 19:22
  me
• 19:22
  back
• 19:22
  when
• 19:22
  I
• 19:22
  was
• 19:22
  19
• 19:23
  years
• 19:23
  old,
• 19:25
  but
• 19:25
  yes,
• 19:26
  from
• 19:26
  an
• 19:26
  X's
• 19:26
  and
• 19:27
  O
• 19:27
  standpoint,
• 19:27
  he
• 19:28
  was
• 19:28
  fantastic.
• 19:29
  Coach
• 19:29
  was
• 19:29
  fantastic.
• 19:30
  But
• 19:30
  more
• 19:30
  so
• 19:31
  than
• 19:31
  the
• 19:31
  X's
• 19:31
  and
• 19:32
  O's,
• 19:32
  like
• 19:32
  Matt
• 19:33
  talked
• 19:33
  about,
• 19:33
  like
• 19:33
  Marco
• 19:34
  talked
• 19:34
  about,
• 19:35
  he
• 19:35
  knew
• 19:35
  how
• 19:35
  to
• 19:35
  reach
• 19:36
  every
• 19:36
  single
• 19:37
  one
• 19:37
  of
• 19:37
  his
• 19:37
  players.
• 19:38
  And
• 19:39
  that's
• 19:39
  a
• 19:39
  gift.
• 19:40
  That
• 19:40
  is
• 19:40
  a
• 19:40
  gift,
• 19:41
  absolutely.
• 19:42
  And
• 19:43
  you
• 19:43
  know,
• 19:43
  Matt,
• 19:44
  when
• 19:44
  Marco
• 19:44
  was
• 19:45
  talking
• 19:45
  before,
• 19:46
  something
• 19:46
  really
• 19:46
  struck
• 19:46
  me
• 19:47
  because
• 19:47
  when
• 19:47
  we
• 19:47
  had
• 19:47
  you
• 19:47
  on
• 19:47
  the
• 19:48

  bit.

  it
• 20:05
  on

  is

  1000%
• 20:13
  true.
• 20:15
  Absolutely.
• 20:17
  Coach
• 20:18
  would
• 20:18
  always
• 20:19
  say
• 20:19
  to
• 20:19
  us
• 20:20
  as
• 20:20
  a
• 20:20
  group,

  thinking
• 20:24
  a
• 20:24
  little
• 20:24
  much

  And,

  you

  know,
• 20:48
  coach

  had
• 20:49
  this
• 20:49
  incredible
• 20:50
  ability

  to.
• 20:52
  And

  you
• 20:52
  got

  remember

  here
• 20:55
  who
• 20:55
  he's
• 20:55
  talking
• 20:56
  to.
• 20:56
  He's
• 20:56
  talking
• 20:56
  to,
• 20:57
  you
• 20:57
  know,
• 20:57
  virtually
• 20:58
  teenage
• 20:58
  kids
• 20:59
  who
• 21:00
  are
• 21:01
  basically
• 21:01
  immature,
• 21:04
  don't
• 21:04
  handle
• 21:04
  adversity
• 21:05
  too
• 21:05
  well.
• 21:06
  Don't
• 21:07
  handle
• 21:07
  much
• 21:07
  too
• 21:08
  well.
• 21:08
  And
• 21:09
  he
• 21:09
  would.
• 21:09
  He
• 21:09
  would
• 21:10
  virtually,
• 21:10
  like
• 21:11
  Marco
• 21:11
  and
• 21:11
  Rob
• 21:12
  would
• 21:12
  say,
• 21:13
  have
• 21:13
  said
• 21:14
  he
• 21:14
  would
• 21:14
  undress
• 21:15
  you
• 21:17
  pretty
• 21:17
  vehemently.
• 21:18
  But
• 21:18
  he
• 21:19
  always,
• 21:20
  always
• 21:20
  came
• 21:21
  back
• 21:21
  to
• 21:21
  that
• 21:21
  player,
• 21:22
  whether
• 21:22
  it
• 21:23
  was
• 21:23
  five
• 21:23
  minutes
• 21:24
  later
• 21:24
  into
• 21:24
  the
• 21:24
  next
• 21:24
  drill
• 21:25
  or.
• 21:25
  Or,
• 21:26
  let's
• 21:26
  meet
• 21:26
  up
• 21:26
  in
• 21:26
  my
• 21:27
  office
• 21:27
  after.
• 21:28
  And
• 21:28
  he'd
• 21:28
  always
• 21:29
  put
• 21:29
  his
• 21:29
  arm
• 21:29
  around.
• 21:29
  And
• 21:29
  I
• 21:30
  know
• 21:30
  he
• 21:30
  did
• 21:30
  this
• 21:30
  with
• 21:30
  me.
• 21:31
  He,
• 21:32
  you
• 21:32
  know,
• 21:32
  he
• 21:33
  called
• 21:33
  me

  all
• 21:33
  kinds
• 21:33
  of
• 21:34
  names,
• 21:34
  which
• 21:35
  I
• 21:35
  started
• 21:35
  to
• 21:36
  really
• 21:36
  enjoy,
• 21:37
  but
• 21:38
  he
• 21:38
  always
• 21:38
  would
• 21:39
  come
• 21:39
  up
• 21:39
  to
• 21:39
  me,
• 21:39
  put

  me.
• 21:40
  His
• 21:40
  arm
• 21:40
  around
• 21:40
  me
• 21:40
  and
• 21:41
  make
• 21:42
  me
• 21:42
  bend
• 21:42
  over,
• 21:42
  and
• 21:43
  he'd
• 21:43
  say,
• 21:43
  listen,
• 21:44
  you
• 21:45
  know
• 21:45
  why
• 21:45
  I'm

  doing
• 21:46
  this?
• 21:46
  I'm
• 21:47
  trying
• 21:47
  to
• 21:47
  make

  Marco,

  I'm

  to
• 22:45
  ask
• 22:45
  you
• 22:45
  a
• 22:45
  question.
• 22:45
  I
• 22:45
  know
• 22:45
  you
• 22:46
  had
• 22:46
  some
• 22:46
  tough
• 22:46
  time.
• 22:48
  You,
• 22:49
  you
• 22:49
  came
• 22:49
  to
• 22:50
  St.
• 22:50
  John's
• 22:50
  you're
• 22:50
  helping
• 22:51
  the
• 22:51
  team
• 22:51
  out.
• 22:51
  Your
• 22:51
  team
• 22:52
  makes
• 22:52
  it
• 22:52
  to
• 22:52
  the
• 22:52
  NCAA
• 22:53
  tournament,
• 22:53
  you're
• 22:54
  in
• 22:54
  the
• 22:54
  West
• 22:54
  Region,
• 22:55
  and
• 22:55
  you
• 22:55
  find
• 22:55
  out
• 22:55
  some
• 22:55
  information

  that

  you're
• 22:56
  not

  to
• 22:57
  play
• 22:57
  in
• 22:57
  the
• 22:57
  NCAA
• 22:58
  tournament.
• 22:58
  And
• 22:58
  there's
• 22:59
  a
• 22:59
  possibility
• 22:59
  that
• 22:59
  you're

  going

  to
• 23:00
  have

  the

• 23:02
  Can

  you
• 23:02
  talk
• 23:02
  a

  little
• 23:03
  bit
• 23:03
  about
• 23:03
  that
• 23:03
  experience
• 23:04
  for
• 23:04
  you
• 23:04
  and
• 23:04
  maybe
• 23:04
  the
• 23:05
  role
• 23:05
  that
• 23:05
  Coach
• 23:05
  Carneseca
• 23:06
  played
• 23:06
  when
• 23:07
  the
• 23:07
  NCAA
• 23:08
  says
• 23:08
  to

  you,
• 23:08
  you
• 23:09
  know,

  sorry,

  Obviously

  I

• 23:21
  about
• 23:21
  to
• 23:21
  leave
• 23:22
  to
• 23:22
  go
• 23:22
  out
• 23:22
  west.
• 23:23
  We
• 23:23
  just
• 23:24
  won
• 23:24
  the
• 23:24
  biggest
• 23:25
  championship.
• 23:26
  Everybody
• 23:26
  was
• 23:28
  happy
• 23:28
  and
• 23:29
  ready
• 23:29
  to
• 23:30
  play
• 23:31
  in
• 23:31
  the
• 23:31
  tournament
• 23:32
  and
• 23:32
  was
• 23:33
  a
• 23:33
  shock
• 23:33
  to
• 23:33
  me.
• 23:33
  I
• 23:33
  couldn't
• 23:34
  really
• 23:34
  understand
• 23:36
  at
• 23:36
  the
• 23:36
  beginning
• 23:36
  what
• 23:37
  was
• 23:37
  going
• 23:37
  on
• 23:37
  and
• 23:38
  why.
• 23:39
  Then
• 23:40
  my
• 23:40
  coach
• 23:40
  was
• 23:41
  right
• 23:41
  behind
• 23:41
  me.
• 23:41
  This
• 23:42
  is
• 23:42
  Marco.
• 23:43
  We'll
• 23:43
  fight
• 23:44
  this
• 23:44
  together
• 23:45
  and
• 23:45
  we'll
• 23:45
  get
• 23:45
  through.
• 23:46
  Don't
• 23:46
  matter.
• 23:47
  You
• 23:47
  know,
• 23:47
  don't
• 23:48
  worry
• 23:48
  about
• 23:48
  anything.
• 23:49
  You
• 23:49
  just
• 23:50
  relax.
• 23:51
  And
• 23:52
  it
• 23:52
  did.
• 23:52
  I
• 23:53
  mean,
• 23:55
  actually
• 23:55
  they
• 23:56
  had
• 23:56
  to
• 23:56
  seek
• 23:56
  me
• 23:57
  out
• 23:57
  for
• 23:57
  those
• 23:57
  games.
• 23:58
  But
• 23:58
  then
• 23:59
  when
• 24:01
  they
• 24:02
  kind
• 24:02
  of.
• 24:02
  The
• 24:03
  suspension
• 24:03
  got
• 24:04
  a
• 24:04
  little
• 24:04
  bit
• 24:05
  bigger
• 24:05
  before
• 24:06
  it
• 24:06
  was
• 24:06
  wiped
• 24:07
  out.
• 24:07
  But
• 24:08
  you.
• 24:08
  He
• 24:09
  put
• 24:10
  together
• 24:10
  a
• 24:10

• 24:11
  of
• 24:11
  lawyers
• 24:11
  to
• 24:12
  fight
• 24:12
  that.
• 24:12
  And
• 24:13
  at
• 24:13
  the
• 24:13
  end
• 24:13
  I
• 24:14
  got
• 24:14
  clear
• 24:14
  and
• 24:15
  I

• 24:17
  following
• 24:18
  season.
• 24:20
  And
• 24:20
  I
• 24:20
  was
• 24:21
  telling
• 24:21
  Chris
• 24:21
  before
• 24:22
  that
• 24:23
  that

  me
• 24:27
  to

  come
• 24:27
  back
• 24:28
  because
• 24:29
  they
• 24:29
  thought
• 24:30
  I
• 24:30
  was
• 24:30
  ready

  for
• 24:31
  them
• 24:31
  professionally
• 24:32
  in
• 24:32
  Italy,
• 24:35
  I
• 24:35
  had
• 24:35
  a
• 24:35
  choice
• 24:36
  to
• 24:37
  make.
• 24:39
  And
• 24:39
  coach
• 24:39
  says,
• 24:40
  marco,
• 24:40
  whatever
• 24:41
  you
• 24:41
  choose,
• 24:41
  I'm
• 24:41
  behind
• 24:42
  you
• 24:42
  100%.
• 24:43
  And
• 24:43
  I
• 24:44
  kind
• 24:44

• 24:45
  Back
• 24:46
  then,
• 24:46
  you
• 24:46
  know,
• 24:46
  we,
• 24:47
  as
• 24:47
  players
• 24:49
  in
• 24:49
  Europe,
• 24:49
  nobody
• 24:50
  had
• 24:50
  an
• 24:50
  agent.
• 24:51
  Was
• 24:51
  just
• 24:51
  like,
• 24:51
  I
• 24:52
  didn't
• 24:52
  have
• 24:52
  anybody
• 24:53
  to
• 24:53
  consult
• 24:53
  but
• 24:54
  him.
• 24:54
  So
• 24:54
  I
• 24:54
  was
• 24:55
  listening
• 24:55
  to
• 24:55
  everything
• 24:56
  he
• 24:56
  had
• 24:56
  to
• 24:56
  say.
• 24:57
  And
• 24:57
  I
• 24:58
  kind
• 24:58
  of.
• 24:58
  When
• 24:58
  I
• 24:58
  made
• 24:58
  that
• 24:59
  decision,
• 24:59
  I
• 24:59
  didn't
• 25:00
  want
• 25:00
  him
• 25:00
  to
• 25:01
  have
• 25:01
  any.
• 25:04
  Any

  other

  press
• 25:06
  on.
• 25:06
  On

  him.
• 25:07
  So
• 25:07
  I

  said,
• 25:08
  coach,
• 25:08
  whatever
• 25:10

• 25:14
  my
• 25:14
  career.
• 25:15
  I
• 25:15
  didn't
• 25:16
  want
• 25:16
  anything
• 25:16

  him.
• 25:20
  I
• 25:20

• 25:30
  Didn't

• 25:32
  that
• 25:32
  story
• 25:32
  again.
• 25:33
  I
• 25:33
  didn't
• 25:34
  want
• 25:34

  that

  coach

  was
• 26:26
  checking

  what
• 26:31
  that's
• 26:32
  like
• 26:32
  after
• 26:32
  you
• 26:32
  leave,
• 26:33
  there's
• 26:33
  still
• 26:33
  somebody
• 26:33

• 26:34
  in
• 26:34
  on
• 26:34
  you?
• 26:35
  Yeah,
• 26:36
  just,
• 26:36
  you
• 26:36
  know,
• 26:36
  to
• 26:37
  piggyback
• 26:37
  on
• 26:38
  what
• 26:38
  Marco
• 26:38
  said,
• 26:40
  that's
• 26:40
  the
• 26:40
  type
• 26:40
  of
• 26:40
  guy
• 26:41
  he
• 26:41
  was.
• 26:41
  There
• 26:41
  were.
• 26:42
  There
• 26:42
  were
• 26:42
  countless,
• 26:43
  countless
• 26:43
  times.
• 26:44
  And
• 26:45
  this
• 26:45
  is
• 26:45
  playing
• 26:46
  for
• 26:46
  a
• 26:46
  bunch
• 26:46
  of
• 26:46
  different
• 26:47
  teams
• 26:47
  where
• 26:47
  one
• 26:48
  of
• 26:48
  the
• 26:48
  assistant
• 26:49
  coaches
• 26:49
  or
• 26:49
  the
• 26:49
  head
• 26:50
  coach
• 26:50
  or
• 26:50
  the
• 26:50
  general
• 26:51
  manager
• 26:51
  of
• 26:52
  the
• 26:52
  team
• 26:52
  I
• 26:52
  was
• 26:52
  playing
• 26:53
  at
• 26:53
  the
• 26:53
  time
• 26:54
  said,
• 26:54
  hey,
• 26:54
  I
• 26:54
  talked
• 26:54
  to
• 26:54
  Coach
• 26:55
  Lew
• 26:55
  last
• 26:55
  night.
• 26:56
  He
• 26:57
  was
• 26:57
  checking
• 26:57
  in,
• 26:57
  seeing
• 26:58
  how
• 26:58
  you're
• 26:58
  doing.
• 26:59
  So
• 26:59
  that
• 26:59
  happens
• 27:00
  quite
• 27:00
  often
• 27:01
  during
• 27:01
  my
• 27:02
  playing
• 27:02
  career.
• 27:03
  And,
• 27:04
  you
• 27:04
  know,
• 27:05
  he
• 27:05
  just
• 27:05
  wanted
• 27:05
  to
• 27:05
  make
• 27:06
  sure
• 27:06
  his
• 27:06
  guys
• 27:06
  were
• 27:07
  all
• 27:07
  right
• 27:08
  because,
• 27:09
  you
• 27:09
  know,
• 27:09
  he
• 27:09
  showed
• 27:09
  us
• 27:10
  this
• 27:10
  when
• 27:10
  we
• 27:11
  played
• 27:11
  for
• 27:11
  him,
• 27:12
  but
• 27:12
  we
• 27:12
  meant
• 27:13
  a
• 27:13
  lot
• 27:13
  to
• 27:13
  him,
• 27:14
  and
• 27:14
  he
• 27:14
  made
• 27:14
  it
• 27:14
  very,
• 27:15
  very
• 27:15
  clear
• 27:16
  that
• 27:16
  that
• 27:16
  was
• 27:16
  the
• 27:17
  case.
• 27:18
  So,
• 27:18
  yeah,
• 27:18
  when
• 27:19
  that
• 27:19
  would
• 27:19
  happen,
• 27:20
  it
• 27:20
  was
• 27:20
  kind
• 27:20
  of
• 27:20
  nice.
• 27:21
  It
• 27:21
  was
• 27:21
  just
• 27:22
  another
• 27:22
  good
• 27:22
  feeling
• 27:23
  of.
• 27:24
  Of
• 27:25
  what
• 27:26
  I
• 27:26
  had
• 27:26
  experienced
• 27:27
  and
• 27:27
  where
• 27:27
  I'm
• 27:28
  going
• 27:28
  and
• 27:28
  what's
• 27:29
  on
• 27:29
  the
• 27:29
  horizon.
• 27:30
  There's
• 27:31
  always
• 27:31
  going
• 27:31
  to
• 27:31
  be
• 27:33
  that
• 27:34
  root
• 27:34
  system
• 27:35
  that
• 27:35
  coach
• 27:36
  provided
• 27:36
  us.
• 27:39
  When
• 27:40
  we
• 27:40
  come
• 27:40
  back.
• 27:40
  I
• 27:40
  think
• 27:41
  on
• 27:41
  the
• 27:41
  other
• 27:41
  side
• 27:41
  of
• 27:41
  the
• 27:41
  great
• 27:42
  gentleman,
• 27:42
  if
• 27:42
  you
• 27:42
  guys
• 27:43
  would
• 27:43
  be
• 27:43
  willing
• 27:44
  to
• 27:44
  stay
• 27:44
  with
• 27:44
  us,
• 27:44
  I'd
• 27:44
  like
• 27:45
  to
• 27:45
  talk
• 27:46
  to
• 27:46
  you
• 27:46
  and
• 27:46
  Chris
• 27:46
  as
• 27:46
  well.
• 27:47
  Just
• 27:47
  kind
• 27:47
  of
• 27:47
  get
• 27:47
  your
• 27:48
  thoughts
• 27:48
  on
• 27:49
  your
• 27:50
  conversations
• 27:51
  in
• 27:51
  the
• 27:52
  past
• 27:52
  couple
• 27:52
  years
• 27:52
  with
• 27:52
  coach
• 27:53
  and
• 27:53
  his
• 27:53
  feelings
• 27:54
  on
• 27:54
  what
• 27:54
  college
• 27:55
  basketball
• 27:55
  was
• 27:56
  becoming
• 27:56
  or
• 27:56
  where
• 27:56
  it
• 27:56
  was
• 27:57
  heading
• 27:57
  or
• 27:58
  if
• 27:58
  it
• 27:58
  could
• 27:59
  head
• 27:59
  back
• 27:59
  to
• 27:59
  what
• 28:00
  it
• 28:00
  was
• 28:00
  in
• 28:00
  the
• 28:00
  past.
• 28:01
  I
• 28:01
  think
• 28:02
  that
• 28:02
  would
• 28:02
  be
• 28:02
  a
• 28:02
  very
• 28:03
  interesting
• 28:03
  conversation
• 28:04
  if
• 28:05
  we
• 28:05
  could
• 28:05
  get
• 28:05
  your
• 28:06
  opinions
• 28:06
  on
• 28:06
  that
• 28:07
  and
• 28:08
  kind
• 28:08
  of
• 28:08
  go
• 28:08
  that
• 28:08
  direction.
• 28:09
  So
• 28:10
  if
• 28:10
  you
• 28:10
  could
• 28:10
  all
• 28:11
  stay
• 28:11
  with

• 28:11
  we'd

  the

  career
• 29:30
  of
• 29:30
  Lou
• 29:30
  Carnesecca
• 29:31
  on

  what
• 29:32
  would
• 29:32
  be
• 29:32
  his
• 29:32
  100th
• 29:33
  birthday.
• 29:34
  Just
• 29:34
  some
• 29:34
  great
• 29:35
  stories
• 29:35
  from
• 29:35
  three
• 29:35
  of
• 29:35
  his
• 29:36
  former
• 29:36
  players
• 29:36
  and
• 29:37
  kind
• 29:37
  of
• 29:37
  going
• 29:38
  back
• 29:38
  to
• 29:38
  what
• 29:38
  we
• 29:38
  had
• 29:39
  spoken
• 29:39
  about
• 29:39
  before
• 29:39
  the
• 29:40
  break.
• 29:41
  Matt,
• 29:42
  I'd
• 29:42
  like
• 29:42
  to
• 29:42
  ask
• 29:42
  you,
• 29:43
  I
• 29:43
  know
• 29:43
  you
• 29:44
  were
• 29:44
  obviously
• 29:44
  in
• 29:44
  touch
• 29:45
  with
• 29:45
  coach
• 29:45
  quite
• 29:45
  a
• 29:45
  bit
• 29:47
  over
• 29:48
  the
• 29:48
  past
• 29:48
  couple
• 29:48
  of
• 29:49
  seasons.
• 29:50
  Any
• 29:50
  thoughts
• 29:50
  on
• 29:51
  your
• 29:52
  discussions
• 29:52
  with
• 29:52
  him
• 29:52
  about
• 29:53
  how
• 29:53
  he
• 29:53
  felt
• 29:54
  college
• 29:54
  athletics
• 29:55
  in
• 29:55
  general
• 29:55
  or
• 29:56
  just
• 29:56
  college
• 29:56
  basketball
• 29:57
  was
• 29:57
  going?
• 29:57
  And
• 29:58
  do
• 29:59
  you
• 29:59
  feel
• 29:59
  it's
• 29:59
  something
• 29:59
  that
• 30:00
  if
• 30:00
  he
• 30:00
  was
• 30:01
  in
• 30:01
  his
• 30:01
  prime
• 30:02
  today
• 30:02
  with
• 30:02
  coach,
• 30:03
  with
• 30:03
  his
• 30:04
  personality,
• 30:04
  that
• 30:05
  he
• 30:05
  would
• 30:05
  even
• 30:05
  be
• 30:05
  interested
• 30:06
  in
• 30:06
  kind
• 30:06
  of
• 30:06
  getting
• 30:07
  involved
• 30:07
  in?
• 30:09
  Well,
• 30:09
  I
• 30:09
  think
• 30:10
  Coach
• 30:10
  is
• 30:11
  a
• 30:11
  people
• 30:12
  person
• 30:13
  and
• 30:14
  he's
• 30:14
  really
• 30:17
  kind
• 30:17
  of
• 30:17
  a
• 30:17
  psychologist
• 30:18
  who
• 30:19
  needs
• 30:19
  his
• 30:19
  patience.
• 30:20
  You
• 30:20
  know,
• 30:21
  I
• 30:21
  think
• 30:21
  he
• 30:22
  would
• 30:22
  love
• 30:22
  to
• 30:22
  be
• 30:23
  involved
• 30:23
  with
• 30:23
  the
• 30:23
  kids
• 30:24
  and
• 30:25
  the
• 30:25
  young
• 30:26
  players
• 30:26
  and
• 30:26
  help
• 30:26
  shaping
• 30:27
  them
• 30:29
  into
• 30:29
  men.
• 30:30
  I
• 30:30
  think
• 30:31
  he'd
• 30:31
  run
• 30:31
  into
• 30:32
  some
• 30:33
  headwinds,
• 30:33
  but
• 30:34
  if
• 30:35
  anyone
• 30:35
  could
• 30:35
  get
• 30:35
  through
• 30:36
  them,
• 30:36
  it
• 30:36
  would
• 30:36
  certainly
• 30:36
  be
• 30:37
  Coach.
• 30:39
  I
• 30:39
  was
• 30:40
  very
• 30:40
  fortunate
• 30:41
  to
• 30:43
  after
• 30:43
  I
• 30:44
  finished
• 30:44
  playing,
• 30:46
  my
• 30:47
  relationship
• 30:47
  with
• 30:49
  coach
• 30:50
  became
• 30:51
  very,
• 30:51
  very
• 30:51
  strong.
• 30:52
  I
• 30:52
  would
• 30:53
  visit
• 30:53
  him
• 30:54
  quite
• 30:55
  frequently
• 30:55
  and
• 30:56
  in
• 30:56
  fact,
• 30:56
  I
• 30:57
  talked
• 30:58
  to
• 30:58
  him
• 30:59
  the
• 30:59
  Tuesday
• 31:00
  before
• 31:00
  he
• 31:00
  passed.
• 31:01
  And
• 31:02
  but
• 31:02
  going
• 31:03
  back
• 31:03
  to
• 31:04
  basketball
• 31:05
  and
• 31:05
  what
• 31:06
  he
• 31:06
  thought,
• 31:08
  I
• 31:08
  know
• 31:08
  it
• 31:08
  troubled
• 31:09
  him
• 31:09
  to
• 31:10
  see
• 31:12
  the
• 31:12
  game
• 31:13
  turn
• 31:13
  very
• 31:14
  selfish
• 31:15
  where
• 31:15
  you
• 31:15
  had,
• 31:17
  you
• 31:17
  know,
• 31:18
  players
• 31:18
  and
• 31:20
  coaches
• 31:20
  especially
• 31:22
  complaining.
• 31:23
  One
• 31:23
  thing
• 31:23
  that
• 31:23
  really
• 31:23
  troubled
• 31:24
  him
• 31:24
  was
• 31:24
  when
• 31:24
  he
• 31:24
  saw
• 31:25
  coaches
• 31:25
  complain
• 31:26
  to
• 31:26
  the
• 31:27
  press
• 31:27
  about
• 31:29
  they're
• 31:30
  players
• 31:30
  and
• 31:31
  you
• 31:31
  know,
• 31:31
  they
• 31:31
  weren't
• 31:32
  good
• 31:32
  tonight
• 31:32
  and
• 31:33
  it
• 31:33
  wasn't
• 31:33
  my
• 31:33
  fault.
• 31:34
  And
• 31:35
  you
• 31:36
  know,
• 31:36
  he
• 31:36
  that
• 31:36
  really
• 31:37
  upset
• 31:37
  him.
• 31:37
  He
• 31:38
  just
• 31:38
  would
• 31:38
  say
• 31:38
  that's
• 31:39
  not
• 31:39
  what
• 31:39
  you
• 31:39
  do.
• 31:40
  You
• 31:40
  don't
• 31:41
  do
• 31:41
  that.
• 31:41
  And
• 31:42
  he
• 31:42
  would
• 31:42
  say
• 31:42
  you
• 31:42
  don't
• 31:42
  earn
• 31:43
  any
• 31:43
  friends
• 31:43
  that
• 31:43
  way
• 31:44
  either.
• 31:44
  Not
• 31:44
  that
• 31:44
  he
• 31:44
  was
• 31:44
  trying
• 31:45
  to
• 31:45
  befriend
• 31:45
  us,
• 31:46
  but
• 31:46
  he
• 31:46
  was
• 31:47
  trying
• 31:47
  to
• 31:47
  raise
• 31:47
  Men.
• 31:50
  And
• 31:51
  thank
• 31:51
  God
• 31:51
  for
• 31:52
  him
• 31:53
  because
• 31:53
  he
• 31:53
  raised
• 31:54
  so
• 31:54
  many
• 31:54
  of
• 31:54
  us
• 31:55
  from
• 31:55
  boys
• 31:56
  to
• 31:56
  men
• 31:56
  and
• 31:57
  on
• 31:58
  probably
• 31:58
  the
• 31:58
  most
• 31:58
  difficult
• 31:59
  stage
• 32:01
  in
• 32:02
  college
• 32:02
  basketball.
• 32:03
  I
• 32:04
  remember
• 32:04
  I
• 32:05
  have
• 32:05
  the
• 32:05
  luxury
• 32:06
  of
• 32:06
  playing
• 32:07
  in
• 32:07
  Carolina
• 32:08
  and
• 32:08
  St.
• 32:09
  John's
• 32:09
  and
• 32:09
  there
• 32:10
  was
• 32:10
  absolutely
• 32:11
  no
• 32:11
  comparison,
• 32:13
  in
• 32:13
  my
• 32:13
  view,
• 32:15
  to
• 32:15
  the
• 32:15
  media
• 32:16
  attention
• 32:16
  and
• 32:16
  the
• 32:17
  media
• 32:17
  scrutiny,
• 32:17
  rather
• 32:18
  that
• 32:19
  Coach
• 32:19
  Carneseca
• 32:20
  had
• 32:20
  to
• 32:20
  deal
• 32:20
  with
• 32:20
  versus
• 32:21
  Coach
• 32:21
  Smith.
• 32:21
  I
• 32:22
  mean,
• 32:22
  it
• 32:22
  was
• 32:22
  Chapel
• 32:22
  Hill
• 32:23
  was
• 32:23
  this
• 32:23
  cozy
• 32:24
  place
• 32:24
  in
• 32:24
  North
• 32:24
  Carolina,
• 32:25
  lovely.
• 32:26
  My
• 32:26
  brother
• 32:26
  played
• 32:26
  there,
• 32:28
  but
• 32:29
  the
• 32:29
  media
• 32:30
  was
• 32:30
  extremely
• 32:31
  friendly.
• 32:32
  But
• 32:32
  up
• 32:32
  in
• 32:32
  New
• 32:32
  York,
• 32:33
  you
• 32:33
  went
• 32:34
  to
• 32:34
  the
• 32:34
  press
• 32:35
  conferences
• 32:36
  after,
• 32:36
  and
• 32:38
  it
• 32:38
  was
• 32:38
  tough
• 32:39
  every
• 32:39
  night.
• 32:39
  I
• 32:39
  mean,
• 32:39
  it
• 32:40
  just
• 32:40
  wasn't
• 32:40
  a
• 32:40
  normal
• 32:41
  college
• 32:42
  experience.
• 32:42
  But
• 32:43
  I
• 32:43
  think
• 32:44
  that
• 32:44
  the
• 32:44
  thing
• 32:45
  about,
• 32:47
  you
• 32:47
  know,
• 32:48
  he
• 32:48
  was
• 32:49
  disappointed
• 32:51
  how
• 32:51
  the
• 32:51
  NIL
• 32:52
  stuff
• 32:53
  had
• 32:53
  come
• 32:54
  about.
• 32:54
  And,
• 32:56
  you
• 32:56
  know,
• 32:57
  again,
• 32:57
  it's,
• 32:58
  what
• 32:59
  are
• 32:59
  we
• 32:59
  teaching
• 32:59
  our
• 33:00
  young
• 33:00
  people?
• 33:00
  He
• 33:00
  would
• 33:00
  say,
• 33:01
  what's
• 33:02
  the
• 33:02
  example?
• 33:05
  And
• 33:05
  the
• 33:05
  transfer
• 33:06
  portal
• 33:07
  really
• 33:07
  troubled
• 33:07
  him
• 33:07
  as
• 33:08
  well.
• 33:08
  He
• 33:08
  said,
• 33:09
  what's
• 33:10
  happening
• 33:10
  to
• 33:10
  these
• 33:10
  boys?
• 33:11
  You
• 33:11
  know,
• 33:11
  Matthew,
• 33:12
  when
• 33:13
  they're
• 33:13
  faced
• 33:14
  with
• 33:14
  adversity,
• 33:15
  they
• 33:15
  just
• 33:15
  run
• 33:15
  away
• 33:15
  and
• 33:16
  hide.
• 33:16
  And
• 33:16
  then,
• 33:17
  you
• 33:17
  know,
• 33:17
  and
• 33:18
  they
• 33:18
  just
• 33:18
  take
• 33:18
  the
• 33:19
  easy
• 33:19
  way
• 33:19
  out.
• 33:19
  And
• 33:21
  he
• 33:21
  said,
• 33:22
  he
• 33:22
  goes,
• 33:22
  it's
• 33:22
  just
• 33:23
  so
• 33:23
  wrong.
• 33:24
  And
• 33:24
  it
• 33:24
  transcended
• 33:25
  basketball.
• 33:25
  We
• 33:25
  weren't
• 33:25
  even
• 33:25
  talking
• 33:26
  basketball
• 33:26
  at
• 33:26
  that
• 33:26
  point.
• 33:27
  We
• 33:27
  were
• 33:27
  just
• 33:27
  talking
• 33:27
  about
• 33:29
  what
• 33:30
  these
• 33:30
  kids
• 33:30
  were
• 33:31
  not
• 33:31
  learning
• 33:31
  and
• 33:32
  the
• 33:32
  things
• 33:32
  they
• 33:32
  were
• 33:33
  learning
• 33:33
  were
• 33:34
  so
• 33:34
  detrimental.
• 33:35
  He
• 33:35
  goes,
• 33:35
  these
• 33:35
  boys
• 33:36
  are
• 33:36
  going
• 33:36
  to
• 33:36
  be.
• 33:37
  Have
• 33:37
  no
• 33:37
  money,
• 33:38
  have
• 33:39
  no
• 33:39
  experience,
• 33:40
  no
• 33:40
  strength
• 33:41
  to
• 33:41
  combat
• 33:42
  life's
• 33:42
  issues
• 33:44
  with
• 33:45
  this
• 33:45
  whole
• 33:45
  setup.
• 33:46
  And
• 33:46
  I
• 33:47
  knew
• 33:47
  it
• 33:47
  bothered
• 33:47
  him
• 33:48
  a
• 33:48
  lot.
• 33:49
  Again,
• 33:49
  we're
• 33:49
  talking
• 33:49
  about
• 33:50
  the
• 33:50
  life
• 33:50
  of
• 33:51
  Lou
• 33:51
  Carneseca,

  coach,
• 33:54
  and
• 33:54
  was
• 33:54
  around

• 33:55
  beginning
• 33:55
  of
• 33:55

  I
• 34:11
  want
• 34:11
  to
• 34:11
  ask
• 34:12
  a
• 34:12
  question
• 34:12
  to
• 34:12
  Rob.
• 34:13
  I
• 34:13
  know
• 34:13
  we're
• 34:13
  talking
• 34:14
  a
• 34:14
  little
• 34:14
  bit
• 34:14
  about
• 34:14
  St.
• 34:15
  John's
• 34:16
  in
• 34:16
  some
• 34:16

  Marco,

  you

  know,
• 34:19
  you're
• 34:19
  in
• 34:19
  Italy,
• 34:19
  but
• 34:20
  you
• 34:20
  were
• 34:20
  at

  Lehigh.
• 34:21
  You
• 34:22
  know,
• 34:22
  Matt,
• 34:22
  you
• 34:22
  came
• 34:23

  Long

• 34:32
  up
• 34:32
  to
• 34:32
  Archbishop
• 34:33
  Malloy
• 34:33
  thinking
• 34:33
  maybe
• 34:34
  we
• 34:34
  would
• 34:34
  have
• 34:34
  a

  shot

  30
• 34:37
  minutes

  five
• 34:42
  local

• 34:42
  I
• 34:42
  got

• 34:47
  I
• 34:47
  mean,
• 34:47
  this
• 34:47
  is
• 34:48
  the
• 34:48
  stuff.
• 34:48
  You
• 34:48
  got
• 34:48
  Mike

  Prey
• 34:49
  saying
• 34:49
  he's
• 34:49
  working
• 34:50
  for
• 34:50
  Krzyzewski
• 34:51
  and
• 34:51
  he
• 34:51
  basically
• 34:52
  gave
• 34:52
  up
• 34:52
  because
• 34:52
  of
• 34:53
  Lou.
• 34:53
  Can
• 34:53
  you
• 34:54
  talk
• 34:54
  a
• 34:54
  little

  St.

  it's
• 35:03
  changed
• 35:03
  the
• 35:04
  code
• 35:05
  because

  of

  the

  infusion
• 35:07
  of
• 35:08
  money
• 35:11
  that's
• 35:11
  available,
• 35:12
  that's
• 35:12
  become,
• 35:13
  that's
• 35:13
  become
• 35:13
  available.
• 35:14
  Hey,
• 35:15
  coach
• 35:15
  was
• 35:15
  able
• 35:16
  to

  recruit
• 35:17
  the
• 35:17
  tri
• 35:17
  state
• 35:18
  area

  guys,
• 35:20
  wanted
• 35:21
  to
• 35:21
  go
• 35:21
  to
• 35:21
  St.
• 35:21
  John.
• 35:22
  Okay?
• 35:23
  Now
• 35:24
  there
• 35:25
  are
• 35:25
  college
• 35:26
  coaches
• 35:26
  have
• 35:26
  to
• 35:27
  recruit
• 35:27
  their
• 35:27
  own
• 35:27
  players
• 35:28
  first.
• 35:28
  Then
• 35:29
  they
• 35:29
  look
• 35:29
  at
• 35:29
  transfer
• 35:30
  portal,
• 35:30
  then
• 35:30
  they
• 35:31
  look
• 35:31
  at
• 35:31
  Jucos,
• 35:32
  before
• 35:32
  they
• 35:32
  even
• 35:32
  look
• 35:32
  at
• 35:33
  the
• 35:33
  high
• 35:33
  school
• 35:33
  level.
• 35:35
  That's
• 35:35
  just
• 35:36
  the
• 35:36
  nature
• 35:36
  of
• 35:37
  our
• 35:37
  time,
• 35:38
  what
• 35:38
  college
• 35:38
  basketball
• 35:39
  is
• 35:40
  at
• 35:41
  the
• 35:41
  present
• 35:41
  moment.
• 35:43
  But
• 35:44
  at
• 35:44
  the
• 35:44
  time
• 35:44
  when
• 35:44
  we
• 35:45
  were
• 35:45
  being
• 35:45
  recruited,
• 35:46
  when
• 35:46
  Matt
• 35:46
  was
• 35:46
  being
• 35:46
  recruited
• 35:47
  and
• 35:47
  I
• 35:47
  was
• 35:47
  being
• 35:47
  recruited,
• 35:48
  you
• 35:48
  know,
• 35:49
  we
• 35:49
  had
• 35:49
  Malik
• 35:49
  Seely
• 35:50
  from
• 35:50
  the
• 35:50
  Bronx,
• 35:52
  Tolentine
• 35:53
  High
• 35:53
  School.
• 35:53
  He
• 35:53
  was
• 35:53
  in
• 35:54
  our
• 35:54
  class.
• 35:54
  He
• 35:55
  was
• 35:55
  in
• 35:55
  my
• 35:55
  class.
• 35:56
  We
• 35:56
  had
• 35:56
  me
• 35:56
  from
• 35:56
  Malloy,
• 35:57
  we
• 35:57
  had
• 35:57
  Terrence
• 35:58
  Mullen
• 35:58
  from
• 35:58
  Zaverian,
• 35:59
  Jason
• 36:00
  Buchanan
• 36:00
  from
• 36:01
  upstate
• 36:01
  New
• 36:01
  York.
• 36:02
  This
• 36:02
  was
• 36:02
  my
• 36:02
  class.
• 36:03
  Chucky
• 36:03
  strolling
• 36:04
  was
• 36:04
  the
• 36:04
  outlier.
• 36:05
  He
• 36:05
  came
• 36:05
  from
• 36:05
  Denver,
• 36:06
  Colorado.
• 36:06
  Nobody
• 36:07
  knew
• 36:07
  even
• 36:07
  where
• 36:07
  Denver,
• 36:08
  Colorado
• 36:08
  was
• 36:09
  if
• 36:09
  you
• 36:09
  were
• 36:09
  from
• 36:09
  the
• 36:09
  tri
• 36:10
  state
• 36:10
  area,
• 36:11
  you
• 36:11
  know,
• 36:11
  at
• 36:11
  the
• 36:11
  age
• 36:12
  of
• 36:12
  17
• 36:12
  and
• 36:13
  18.
• 36:14
  But
• 36:15
  coach
• 36:15
  had
• 36:16
  a
• 36:16
  knack
• 36:16
  of
• 36:16
  keeping
• 36:17
  people
• 36:18
  showing
• 36:19
  exactly
• 36:20
  what
• 36:20
  could
• 36:20
  be
• 36:22
  and
• 36:22
  then
• 36:22
  coming
• 36:23
  through
• 36:23
  on
• 36:23
  what
• 36:23
  could
• 36:24
  be
• 36:24
  and
• 36:24
  what
• 36:24
  he
• 36:25
  promised.
• 36:25
  And,
• 36:26
  you
• 36:26
  know,
• 36:26
  it
• 36:27
  wasn't
• 36:27
  a
• 36:27
  money
• 36:27
  thing
• 36:28
  back
• 36:28
  then.
• 36:28
  It
• 36:28
  was
• 36:29
  about,
• 36:29
  like
• 36:29
  Matt
• 36:30
  said,
• 36:30
  talked
• 36:30
  about
• 36:31
  raising
• 36:31
  men.
• 36:33
  You
• 36:33
  know,
• 36:33
  coach
• 36:34
  wanted
• 36:34
  to
• 36:34
  take
• 36:35
  care
• 36:35
  of
• 36:35
  you
• 36:35
  for
• 36:35
  forever.
• 36:36
  He
• 36:36
  wanted
• 36:36
  to
• 36:37
  bring
• 36:37
  you
• 36:37
  up
• 36:38
  and,
• 36:39
  you
• 36:39
  know,
• 36:39
  that's
• 36:39
  what
• 36:39
  he
• 36:40
  did
• 36:40
  and
• 36:40
  that's
• 36:40
  what
• 36:40
  was
• 36:41
  promised
• 36:41
  and
• 36:41
  that's
• 36:42
  what
• 36:42
  he
• 36:42
  afforded
• 36:42
  all
• 36:43
  of
• 36:43
  us.
• 36:44
  And
• 36:44
  now
• 36:44
  things
• 36:45
  have
• 36:45
  changed
• 36:46
  such
• 36:46
  a,
• 36:47
  in
• 36:47
  such
• 36:47
  drastic
• 36:48
  ways
• 36:48
  that
• 36:49
  there's
• 36:49
  no
• 36:50
  telling
• 36:50
  up
• 36:50
  from
• 36:51
  down.
• 36:51
  I
• 36:51
  mean,
• 36:51
  you
• 36:51
  got,
• 36:54
  you
• 36:54
  got
• 36:54
  really,
• 36:55
  really
• 36:55
  good
• 36:56
  high
• 36:56
  school
• 36:56
  seniors
• 36:57
  that
• 36:57
  can't
• 36:57
  even
• 36:57
  get
• 36:58
  a
• 36:58
  look
• 36:58
  at
• 36:58
  a
• 36:58
  college.
• 36:59
  And
• 36:59
  you
• 36:59
  know,
• 37:00
  and
• 37:00
  I
• 37:00
  know
• 37:00
  I'm
• 37:00
  rambling
• 37:01
  now,
• 37:01
  but
• 37:01
  back
• 37:01
  then,
• 37:02
  college
• 37:02
  coaches
• 37:02
  used
• 37:03
  to
• 37:03
  come
• 37:03
  to
• 37:03
  our
• 37:03
  high
• 37:04
  schools
• 37:04
  to
• 37:04
  watch
• 37:04
  us
• 37:05
  perform
• 37:05
  in
• 37:06
  practice,
• 37:06
  to
• 37:07
  get
• 37:07
  to
• 37:07
  know,
• 37:07
  to
• 37:08
  see
• 37:08
  the
• 37:08
  work
• 37:08
  ethic.
• 37:09
  Now
• 37:10
  college
• 37:10
  coaches,
• 37:10
  they
• 37:11
  go
• 37:11
  to
• 37:11
  AAU
• 37:11
  games
• 37:12
  on
• 37:12
  a
• 37:12
  Saturday.
• 37:12
  They
• 37:13
  see
• 37:14
  11
• 37:14
  games,
• 37:15
  and
• 37:16
  they've
• 37:16
  basically
• 37:17
  seen
• 37:17
  the
• 37:17
  entire
• 37:17
  region
• 37:18
  at
• 37:18
  that
• 37:18
  point.
• 37:19
  So
• 37:20
  it's
• 37:20
  sad.
• 37:20
  And
• 37:21
  what
• 37:21
  Matt
• 37:21
  said
• 37:22
  about
• 37:22
  coach's
• 37:22
  feelings
• 37:24
  about
• 37:25
  college
• 37:25
  basketball
• 37:26
  at
• 37:26
  this
• 37:26
  time,
• 37:27
  what
• 37:28
  they
• 37:28
  were.
• 37:29
  I
• 37:30
  kind
• 37:30
  of
• 37:30
  agree
• 37:30
  with
• 37:30
  him.
• 37:31
  I
• 37:31
  agree
• 37:31
  with
• 37:31
  him
• 37:32
  wholeheartedly,
• 37:33
  to
• 37:33
  be
• 37:33
  honest
• 37:33
  with
• 37:33
  you.
• 37:34
  Sure.
• 37:34
  Well,
• 37:35
  you
• 37:35
  can
• 37:35
  see
• 37:35
  it,
• 37:35
  guys,
• 37:35
  I'm
• 37:36
  sure,
• 37:36
  because
• 37:37
  a
• 37:37
  coach
• 37:37
  like
• 37:37
  Jim
• 37:38
  Laranega,
• 37:38
  who
• 37:38
  just
• 37:39
  resigned
• 37:39
  down
• 37:40
  in
• 37:40
  Miami,
• 37:40
  kind
• 37:41
  of
• 37:41
  an
• 37:41
  old
• 37:41
  school
• 37:41
  guy,
• 37:43
  there's
• 37:43
  just
• 37:44
  nothing
• 37:44
  really
• 37:45
  left
• 37:45
  for
• 37:45
  them
• 37:46
  in
• 37:46
  terms
• 37:46
  of,
• 37:47
  you
• 37:47
  know,
• 37:47
  being
• 37:47
  a
• 37:47
  teacher
• 37:48
  and
• 37:48
  role
• 37:48
  model.
• 37:48
  And
• 37:49
  it
• 37:49
  really,
• 37:49
  unfortunately,
• 37:50
  is.
• 37:50
  It's
• 37:51
  changed
• 37:51
  so
• 37:51
  much
• 37:51
  and
• 37:51
  is
• 37:52
  about
• 37:52
  money
• 37:52
  and
• 37:54
  who,
• 37:54
  you
• 37:54
  know,
• 37:55
  year
• 37:55
  to
• 37:55
  year,
• 37:55
  retooling
• 37:56
  the
• 37:56
  roster.
• 37:57
  It's
• 37:58
  tough,
• 37:58
  but
• 38:00
  just
• 38:00
  kind
• 38:00
  of
• 38:00
  a
• 38:01
  quick
• 38:01
  rewind.
• 38:01
  So
• 38:02
  I'd
• 38:02
  like
• 38:02
  to,
• 38:02
  if
• 38:03
  we
• 38:03
  could
• 38:03
  just,
• 38:03
  with
• 38:03
  each
• 38:03
  one
• 38:04
  of
• 38:04
  you,
• 38:04
  real
• 38:04
  quickly,
• 38:05
  kind
• 38:05
  of
• 38:05
  go
• 38:05
  back
• 38:06
  to.
• 38:07
  If
• 38:07
  you
• 38:07
  can
• 38:07
  recall
• 38:08
  maybe
• 38:08
  a
• 38:08
  favorite
• 38:09
  moment
• 38:09
  with
• 38:10
  coach
• 38:11
  during
• 38:12
  a
• 38:12
  game
• 38:12
  through
• 38:12
  your
• 38:13
  careers.
• 38:13
  Is
• 38:13
  there
• 38:13
  one.
• 38:14
  One
• 38:14
  thing,
• 38:15
  even
• 38:15
  if
• 38:15
  it's
• 38:15
  in
• 38:15
  practice,
• 38:16
  that
• 38:16
  stands
• 38:17
  out?
• 38:17
  Was
• 38:17
  there
• 38:17
  the
• 38:18
  one
• 38:18
  kind
• 38:18
  of
• 38:18
  moment
• 38:19
  where
• 38:20
  you
• 38:20
  sit
• 38:20
  back
• 38:21
  and
• 38:21
  really,
• 38:21
  really
• 38:22
  smile?
• 38:22
  And
• 38:23
  we'll
• 38:23
  start
• 38:23
  with
• 38:23
  you,
• 38:23
  Marco.
• 38:24
  Anything
• 38:24
  that
• 38:24
  really
• 38:25
  stands
• 38:25
  out
• 38:25
  about.
• 38:26
  In
• 38:26
  game,
• 38:26
  in
• 38:27
  practice?
• 38:30
  I
• 38:31
  know
• 38:31
  it's
• 38:31
  a
• 38:31
  tough
• 38:31
  question.
• 38:33
  It
• 38:33
  is,
• 38:33
  it
• 38:33
  is.
• 38:33
  Because
• 38:34
  I
• 38:35
  have
• 38:35
  to
• 38:35
  think
• 38:35
  back
• 38:36
  to
• 38:36
  many,
• 38:37
  many
• 38:38
  wonderful
• 38:38
  memory,
• 38:39
  but
• 38:40
  I
• 38:40
  could.
• 38:42
  I
• 38:43
  could
• 38:43
  recall.
• 38:43
  And
• 38:43
  Matt,
• 38:44
  now
• 38:44
  this.
• 38:45
  It
• 38:45
  might
• 38:46
  mean
• 38:46
  bad
• 38:46
  or
• 38:46
  you're
• 38:47
  going
• 38:47
  to
• 38:47
  recall
• 38:47
  this.
• 38:48
  So
• 38:48
  we
• 38:48
  go
• 38:49
  through
• 38:49
  a
• 38:49
  tough
• 38:50
  stretch,
• 38:51
  and
• 38:52
  it
• 38:53
  was
• 38:53
  mostly
• 38:54
  on.
• 38:54
  On
• 38:55
  me,
• 38:55
  meaning
• 38:56
  the
• 38:56
  big
• 38:56
  guys.
• 38:56
  We
• 38:56
  weren't
• 38:57
  rebounding
• 38:57
  that
• 38:58
  much.
• 38:59
  So
• 38:59
  in
• 39:00
  practice,
• 39:01
  he
• 39:02
  has
• 39:02
  playing.
• 39:03
  It
• 39:03
  has
• 39:03
  playing
• 39:03
  5
• 39:04
  on
• 39:04
  5.
• 39:04
  Everybody's
• 39:05
  going
• 39:05
  up
• 39:06
  and
• 39:06
  down.
• 39:06
  But
• 39:06
  what
• 39:07
  he
• 39:07
  does
• 39:08
  to
• 39:08
  help
• 39:08
  us,
• 39:10
  he
• 39:10
  had
• 39:10
  a
• 39:10
  drill
• 39:11
  to
• 39:11
  help
• 39:11
  us
• 39:12
  to,
• 39:12
  you
• 39:12
  know,
• 39:12
  get
• 39:13
  more
• 39:13
  rebound.
• 39:13
  He
• 39:13
  put
• 39:14
  a
• 39:14
  bubble
• 39:15
  on
• 39:15
  top
• 39:15
  of
• 39:15
  the
• 39:15
  basket
• 39:16
  so
• 39:16
  nobody
• 39:16
  could
• 39:16
  score.
• 39:18
  So
• 39:19
  we
• 39:19
  go
• 39:19
  back
• 39:19
  and
• 39:20
  forth,
• 39:20
  and
• 39:20
  we
• 39:20
  played
• 39:21
  for.
• 39:23
  It
• 39:23
  looked
• 39:24
  like
• 39:24
  a
• 39:24
  long
• 39:24
  time,
• 39:24
  10,
• 39:25
  15
• 39:25
  minutes
• 39:25
  without
• 39:26
  scoring
• 39:26
  because
• 39:26
  you're
• 39:27
  shooting
• 39:27
  and
• 39:27
  the
• 39:27
  ball
• 39:28
  cannot
• 39:29
  go
• 39:29
  in,
• 39:29
  obviously,
• 39:30
  because
• 39:30
  there
• 39:31
  is
• 39:31
  a
• 39:31
  bubble,
• 39:31
  right?
• 39:32
  But
• 39:33
  at
• 39:33
  one
• 39:33
  point,
• 39:34
  Matt
• 39:36
  steals
• 39:36
  the
• 39:36
  ball
• 39:37
  and
• 39:37
  he
• 39:37
  goes
• 39:37
  on
• 39:38
  a
• 39:38
  breakaway,
• 39:39
  and
• 39:39
  we're
• 39:39
  all
• 39:40
  going
• 39:40
  like,
• 39:40
  what
• 39:41
  is
• 39:41
  he
• 39:41
  going
• 39:41
  to
• 39:41
  do
• 39:41
  now?
• 39:42
  He
• 39:42
  goes
• 39:43
  up
• 39:43
  and
• 39:43
  smashed
• 39:44
  that
• 39:45
  plastic
• 39:45
  bubble
• 39:46
  into
• 39:46
  a
• 39:46
  thousand
• 39:47
  pieces.
• 39:50
  Everybody
• 39:51
  waiting
• 39:52
  to
• 39:52
  see
• 39:52
  coach's
• 39:53
  reaction,
• 39:54
  you
• 39:54
  know,
• 39:54
  because
• 39:54
  they're
• 39:55
  like,
• 39:55
  oh,
• 39:55
  boy,
• 39:56
  what
• 39:56
  he's
• 39:56
  going
• 39:56
  to
• 39:56
  do.
• 39:57
  So
• 39:57
  he
• 39:57
  turned
• 39:57
  around
• 39:58
  and
• 39:58
  goes,
• 39:58
  oh,
• 39:59
  enough
• 39:59
  of
• 39:59
  the
• 39:59
  bubbles.
• 40:00
  I
• 40:00
  guess
• 40:00
  we
• 40:01
  go
• 40:01
  back
• 40:01
  playing
• 40:01
  and
• 40:02
  everybody
• 40:02
  laughs
• 40:03
  so
• 40:03
  hard
• 40:03
  that,
• 40:04
  you
• 40:04
  know,
• 40:04
  we
• 40:04
  might
• 40:05
  as
• 40:05
  well
• 40:05
  finish
• 40:05
  that
• 40:06
  practice.
• 40:06
  That
• 40:06
  day
• 40:06
  that
• 40:07
  was,
• 40:07
  you
• 40:07
  know,
• 40:07
  it
• 40:08
  kind
• 40:08
  of
• 40:08
  broke
• 40:08
  the
• 40:08
  tension,
• 40:09
  and
• 40:09
  everybody
• 40:10
  is
• 40:11
  back
• 40:11
  to
• 40:11
  normal.
• 40:12
  All
• 40:12
  right,
• 40:12
  Matt,
• 40:13
  you
• 40:13
  want
• 40:13
  to
• 40:13
  continue
• 40:13
  with
• 40:14
  one
• 40:14
  of
• 40:14
  your
• 40:14
  stories?
• 40:14
  That's
• 40:15
  fantastic.
• 40:18
  I
• 40:18
  thought
• 40:19
  someone
• 40:19
  might
• 40:19
  bring
• 40:20
  that
• 40:20
  up.
• 40:20
  And
• 40:21
  one
• 40:21
  of
• 40:21
  the
• 40:21
  reasons
• 40:22
  why
• 40:22
  I
• 40:22
  got
• 40:22
  a
• 40:22
  number
• 40:22
  of
• 40:23
  colorful
• 40:23
  nicknames.
• 40:24
  Hammerhead,
• 40:26
  Dunce,
• 40:27
  Rockhead,
• 40:29
  Humpty
• 40:29
  Dumpy,
• 40:30
  you
• 40:30
  know,
• 40:30
  just
• 40:30
  all
• 40:30
  kinds
• 40:31
  of
• 40:31
  things
• 40:31
  which
• 40:32
  I
• 40:32
  earned
• 40:33
  Those
• 40:33
  things,
• 40:33
  which
• 40:34
  I'm
• 40:34
  very
• 40:34
  proud
• 40:34
  of.
• 40:36
  One
• 40:36
  thing,
• 40:38
  one
• 40:39
  quick
• 40:39
  one
• 40:39
  was,
• 40:40
  I
• 40:40
  remember
• 40:42
  my
• 40:42
  first
• 40:42
  year
• 40:43
  when
• 40:43
  we
• 40:44
  were
• 40:44
  playing
• 40:45
  Wichita
• 40:45
  State
• 40:46
  and
• 40:48
  Eddie
• 40:49
  Fogler
• 40:49
  was
• 40:50
  the
• 40:50
  head
• 40:50
  coach
• 40:50
  and
• 40:50
  he
• 40:51
  was
• 40:51
  a
• 40:51
  former
• 40:51
  Carolina
• 40:51
  guy
• 40:52
  and
• 40:52
  side
• 40:53
  kind
• 40:53
  of
• 40:54
  really
• 40:54
  wanted
• 40:55
  that
• 40:55
  game.
• 40:56
  And
• 40:57
  Mark
• 40:57
  was
• 40:57
  our
• 40:57
  kind
• 40:58
  of
• 40:58
  go
• 40:58
  to
• 40:58
  guy.
• 40:59
  And
• 40:59
  then
• 40:59
  at
• 41:00
  the
• 41:00
  end
• 41:00
  of
• 41:00
  the
• 41:00
  game,
• 41:00
  there's
• 41:00
  a
• 41:01
  couple
• 41:01
  seconds
• 41:01
  left
• 41:01
  and
• 41:02
  he
• 41:02
  got
• 41:02
  caught
• 41:02
  up
• 41:02
  at
• 41:02
  half
• 41:03
  court
• 41:04
  and
• 41:04
  he
• 41:04
  throws
• 41:04
  the
• 41:04
  ball
• 41:05
  to
• 41:05
  Bruno
• 41:06
  and
• 41:08
  he
• 41:08
  just
• 41:08
  turns
• 41:09
  around
• 41:09
  and
• 41:09
  like,
• 41:10
  we're
• 41:10
  all.
• 41:10
  He's
• 41:10
  going
• 41:10
  to
• 41:11
  shoot
• 41:11
  the
• 41:11
  ball
• 41:11
  and
• 41:11
  we're
• 41:11
  all
• 41:11
  like,
• 41:12
  no
• 41:13
  and
• 41:14
  swoosh
• 41:17
  and
• 41:17
  we're
• 41:17
  on
• 41:17
  to
• 41:18
  the
• 41:18
  next
• 41:18
  round.
• 41:18
  So
• 41:19
  that
• 41:20
  was
• 41:20
  one
• 41:20
  memory
• 41:21
  that
• 41:22
  I
• 41:22
  so
• 41:23
  enjoyed
• 41:23
  with
• 41:24
  my
• 41:25
  brother
• 41:25
  Marco.
• 41:26
  There
• 41:28
  were
• 41:29
  just
• 41:29
  so
• 41:29
  many.
• 41:31
  The
• 41:31
  only
• 41:31
  other
• 41:31
  thing
• 41:32
  that
• 41:32
  comes
• 41:32
  to
• 41:32
  mind
• 41:32
  is
• 41:33
  when
• 41:33
  I
• 41:34
  nearly
• 41:34
  killed
• 41:34
  Alibabo
• 41:35
  in
• 41:35
  practice.
• 41:36
  But
• 41:38
  we
• 41:38
  were
• 41:38
  running
• 41:38
  a
• 41:39
  fast
• 41:39
  break
• 41:39
  drill
• 41:40
  and
• 41:41
  Al
• 41:41
  was
• 41:41
  constantly
• 41:42
  on
• 41:42
  and
• 41:42
  off
• 41:42
  the
• 41:43
  court.
• 41:44
  He
• 41:44
  had
• 41:44
  a
• 41:44
  very
• 41:44
  raspy
• 41:45
  voice
• 41:45
  and
• 41:45
  just
• 41:46
  screaming
• 41:46
  where
• 41:46
  guys
• 41:47
  should
• 41:47
  go.
• 41:47
  And
• 41:48
  we
• 41:48
  were
• 41:48
  exhausted.
• 41:49
  And
• 41:49
  so
• 41:50
  I.
• 41:51
  I'm
• 41:51
  looking
• 41:51
  back,
• 41:52
  Al
• 41:52
  happens
• 41:52
  to
• 41:53
  step
• 41:53
  in
• 41:53
  front
• 41:53
  of
• 41:53
  me
• 41:53
  and
• 41:53
  I
• 41:53
  got
• 41:54
  maybe
• 41:54
  one
• 41:54
  or
• 41:54
  two
• 41:55
  steps
• 41:55
  on
• 41:55
  him
• 41:56
  and
• 41:56
  I
• 41:56
  literally
• 41:56
  lifted
• 41:57
  him
• 41:57
  off
• 41:57
  the
• 41:57
  ground
• 41:58
  and
• 41:59
  he,
• 41:59
  he
• 42:00
  did
• 42:00
  like
• 42:00
  a.
• 42:00
  A
• 42:01
  flying
• 42:01
  wallenda
• 42:02
  and
• 42:02
  just
• 42:03
  fell
• 42:03
  on
• 42:03
  the
• 42:03
  floor.
• 42:04
  And
• 42:05
  I
• 42:05
  looked
• 42:05
  over
• 42:05
  Coach
• 42:06
  and.
• 42:07
  And
• 42:07
  he
• 42:07
  comes
• 42:08
  over,
• 42:08
  he
• 42:08
  goes,
• 42:09
  jesus,
• 42:09
  you
• 42:09
  killed
• 42:10
  the
• 42:10
  son
• 42:10
  of
• 42:10
  a
• 42:11
  gun.
• 42:12
  And.
• 42:13
  And
• 42:13
  then,
• 42:13
  and
• 42:14
  then
• 42:14
  after
• 42:14
  that,
• 42:14
  Al
• 42:15
  gets
• 42:15
  up
• 42:16
  and
• 42:17
  Coach
• 42:17
  goes,
• 42:18
  he's
• 42:18
  just
• 42:18
  a
• 42:18
  tough
• 42:19
  Sicilian.
• 42:19
  He's
• 42:19
  not
• 42:20
  going
• 42:20
  to
• 42:20
  go
• 42:20
  down
• 42:20
  like
• 42:20
  that.
• 42:22
  And
• 42:22
  then
• 42:23
  to
• 42:23
  make
• 42:23
  it
• 42:23
  worse,
• 42:24
  we're
• 42:24
  walking
• 42:24
  off
• 42:24
  the
• 42:25
  court
• 42:25
  and
• 42:25
  he
• 42:25
  comes
• 42:26
  up
• 42:26
  and
• 42:26
  he
• 42:26
  goes,
• 42:26
  matty,
• 42:26
  come
• 42:26
  over
• 42:27
  here.
• 42:27
  And
• 42:27
  I
• 42:27
  figured
• 42:28
  he's
• 42:28
  going
• 42:28
  to
• 42:28
  yell
• 42:28
  at
• 42:28
  me
• 42:28
  for
• 42:28
  something.
• 42:29
  He
• 42:29
  goes,
• 42:30
  did
• 42:30
  you
• 42:30
  see
• 42:30
  that?
• 42:31
  And
• 42:31
  I
• 42:31
  said,
• 42:31
  what?
• 42:32
  He
• 42:32
  goes,
• 42:33
  that
• 42:33
  damn
• 42:34
  guy
• 42:34
  got
• 42:34
  hit
• 42:35
  so
• 42:35
  hard,
• 42:35
  the
• 42:35
  first
• 42:35
  thing
• 42:35
  he
• 42:36
  did
• 42:36
  was
• 42:36
  grab
• 42:36
  that
• 42:37
  thing
• 42:37
  in
• 42:37
  his
• 42:37
  head,
• 42:37
  meaning
• 42:38
  his
• 42:38
  hair.
• 42:41
  Al
• 42:41
  had
• 42:42
  a
• 42:42
  strange
• 42:42
  hairdo
• 42:43
  and
• 42:43
  everyone.
• 42:43
  Knows
• 42:43
  what
• 42:44
  it
• 42:44
  was.
• 42:44
  But
• 42:45
  he
• 42:46
  said,
• 42:46
  did
• 42:46
  you
• 42:46
  see
• 42:47
  that?
• 42:47
  He
• 42:47
  starts
• 42:47
  laughing
• 42:48
  and
• 42:48
  walks
• 42:48
  around
• 42:48
  and
• 42:49
  I'm
• 42:49
  saying,
• 42:49
  what's
• 42:50
  wrong
• 42:50
  with
• 42:50
  this
• 42:50
  coach?
• 42:51
  Is
• 42:51
  this
• 42:51
  guy
• 42:51
  okay?
• 42:53
  But
• 42:53
  there
• 42:53
  are
• 42:54
  some
• 42:54
  fond
• 42:54
  memories.
• 42:55
  Yeah.
• 42:56
  I
• 42:57
  never
• 42:57
  met
• 42:57
  Coach
• 42:57
  Lovalo,
• 42:58
  but
• 42:58
  he
• 42:58
  did.
• 42:59
  You're
• 42:59
  very
• 42:59
  true.
• 42:59
  He
• 43:00
  did
• 43:00
  have
• 43:00
  a
• 43:00
  very
• 43:00
  interesting
• 43:01
  hairstyle,
• 43:02
  that's
• 43:02
  for
• 43:02
  sure,
• 43:03
  to
• 43:03
  put
• 43:03
  it
• 43:03
  mildly.
• 43:04
  So,
• 43:05
  Rob,
• 43:05
  obviously
• 43:06
  we'll
• 43:06
  finish
• 43:06
  up,
• 43:07
  we'll
• 43:07
  go
• 43:07
  to
• 43:07
  you.
• 43:07
  Just
• 43:08
  anything,
• 43:09
  you
• 43:09
  know,
• 43:09
  Again,
• 43:10
  tough
• 43:10
  question,
• 43:10
  but
• 43:11
  anything
• 43:11
  jump
• 43:11
  out
• 43:11
  at
• 43:12
  you,
• 43:12
  just
• 43:13
  game,
• 43:14
  practice
• 43:14
  wise,
• 43:14
  that
• 43:14
  you'll
• 43:15
  always
• 43:15
  take
• 43:15
  with
• 43:15
  you?
• 43:16
  Yeah,
• 43:17
  sure.
• 43:17
  I
• 43:17
  mean.
• 43:18
  And
• 43:18
  Matt,
• 43:19
  I
• 43:19
  don't
• 43:19
  know
• 43:19
  if
• 43:19
  you
• 43:20
  remember,
• 43:20
  but
• 43:21
  when
• 43:21
  you
• 43:21
  crushed
• 43:22
  Coach
• 43:23
  Labalbo
• 43:24
  I
• 43:24
  was
• 43:25
  a
• 43:25
  freshman
• 43:26
  and
• 43:26
  Coach
• 43:27
  Labalbo
• 43:28
  was
• 43:28
  a
• 43:28
  little
• 43:28
  bit
• 43:29
  older
• 43:29
  than
• 43:29
  everybody
• 43:30
  else,
• 43:30
  if
• 43:30
  you
• 43:30
  remember.
• 43:31
  And
• 43:31
  he
• 43:31
  got
• 43:31
  to
• 43:32
  his
• 43:32
  feet
• 43:32
  pretty
• 43:33
  quickly
• 43:33
  and
• 43:33
  he
• 43:33
  said,
• 43:34
  it's
• 43:34
  going
• 43:34
  to.
• 43:34
  Take
• 43:34
  more
• 43:34
  than
• 43:35
  that.
• 43:37
  I
• 43:37
  don't
• 43:37
  know
• 43:37
  if
• 43:37
  you
• 43:37
  remember
• 43:38
  that,
• 43:38
  but
• 43:38
  I
• 43:38
  was
• 43:38
  there
• 43:39
  for
• 43:39
  that.
• 43:40
  Yeah,
• 43:41
  Coach
• 43:42
  Carneseca,
• 43:43
  you
• 43:44
  know,
• 43:44
  guys
• 43:45
  are
• 43:45
  keeping
• 43:45
  it
• 43:45
  pretty
• 43:46
  light
• 43:46
  hearted.
• 43:46
  I
• 43:47
  remember
• 43:47
  his
• 43:47
  hearing
• 43:48
  aids
• 43:48
  going
• 43:49
  off
• 43:51
  when
• 43:51
  the
• 43:51
  batteries
• 43:52
  would
• 43:52
  get
• 43:52
  low
• 43:52
  and
• 43:53
  it
• 43:53
  start
• 43:53
  beeping.
• 43:55
  And
• 43:56
  we'd
• 43:56
  go
• 43:56
  through
• 43:57
  tough
• 43:57
  patches
• 43:58
  in
• 43:58
  practice
• 43:59
  and
• 44:00
  we'd
• 44:01
  be
• 44:01
  working
• 44:01
  really
• 44:02
  hard
• 44:02
  and
• 44:02
  just
• 44:02
  to
• 44:02
  break
• 44:03
  the
• 44:03
  tension,
• 44:04
  he'd
• 44:05
  make
• 44:05
  a
• 44:05
  joke
• 44:05
  on
• 44:05
  himself.
• 44:06
  None
• 44:06
  of
• 44:06
  the
• 44:06
  guys
• 44:07
  would
• 44:07
  say,
• 44:07
  hey,
• 44:07
  your
• 44:07
  hearing
• 44:08
  aids
• 44:08
  are
• 44:08
  beeping.
• 44:09
  You
• 44:09
  know,
• 44:09
  you
• 44:09
  might
• 44:09
  want
• 44:09
  to
• 44:10
  take
• 44:11
  them
• 44:11
  out
• 44:11
  or
• 44:12
  adjust
• 44:12
  them
• 44:13
  or
• 44:13
  something
• 44:13
  like
• 44:13
  that.
• 44:14
  We
• 44:14
  don't
• 44:14
  just.
• 44:15
  But
• 44:15
  he
• 44:15
  saw
• 44:16
  it
• 44:16
  on
• 44:16
  our
• 44:16
  faces
• 44:16
  that
• 44:17
  that's
• 44:17
  what
• 44:17
  was
• 44:17
  exactly
• 44:18
  what
• 44:18
  was
• 44:18
  happening.
• 44:19
  And
• 44:19
  that
• 44:20
  was
• 44:20
  a
• 44:20
  tension
• 44:21
  breaker
• 44:21
  for
• 44:21
  us
• 44:24
  during
• 44:24
  some
• 44:25
  tough
• 44:25
  practices.
• 44:25
  But
• 44:26
  the
• 44:26
  greatest
• 44:27
  thing
• 44:27
  I'll
• 44:27
  remember
• 44:28
  about
• 44:28
  Coach
• 44:28
  is
• 44:29
  the
• 44:29
  walks
• 44:29
  we
• 44:29
  would
• 44:30
  take.
• 44:31
  Coach
• 44:32
  anytime,
• 44:33
  especially,
• 44:33
  you
• 44:34
  know,
• 44:34
  at
• 44:34
  least
• 44:34
  with
• 44:34
  me,
• 44:35
  anytime
• 44:35
  he
• 44:35
  wanted
• 44:36
  to
• 44:36
  get
• 44:36
  a
• 44:36
  point
• 44:37
  across,
• 44:37
  he'd
• 44:38
  put
• 44:38
  his
• 44:38
  arm,
• 44:38
  arm
• 44:39
  around
• 44:39
  my
• 44:39
  waist
• 44:40
  and
• 44:41
  he'd
• 44:41
  say,
• 44:41
  walk
• 44:42
  with
• 44:42
  me,
• 44:42
  walk
• 44:42
  with
• 44:43
  me.
• 44:44
  And
• 44:44
  sometimes
• 44:45
  our
• 44:45
  walks
• 44:45
  would
• 44:45
  be
• 44:45
  20
• 44:46
  minutes
• 44:46
  because
• 44:46
  we'd
• 44:46
  be
• 44:47
  talking
• 44:47
  about
• 44:47
  a
• 44:47
  lot
• 44:47
  of
• 44:47
  different
• 44:48
  things
• 44:48
  and
• 44:49
  it
• 44:49
  wouldn't
• 44:50
  always
• 44:50
  be
• 44:50
  basketball.
• 44:52
  And
• 44:53
  I
• 44:53
  think
• 44:53
  the
• 44:54
  other
• 44:54
  guys,
• 44:54
  Marco
• 44:54
  and
• 44:55
  Matt
• 44:56
  would
• 44:56
  agree
• 44:57
  there
• 44:57
  was
• 44:58
  just
• 44:58
  so
• 44:58
  much
• 44:58
  more
• 44:59
  to
• 45:00
  our
• 45:01
  experience
• 45:01
  with
• 45:02
  Coach
• 45:02
  Koenaseca
• 45:03
  than
• 45:03
  just
• 45:03
  basketball.
• 45:05
  So,
• 45:05
  yeah,
• 45:06
  there's
• 45:06
  some
• 45:06
  super
• 45:07
  memories.
• 45:07
  So
• 45:07
  many,
• 45:08
  so
• 45:08
  many.
• 45:09
  I'll
• 45:09
  throw
• 45:09
  this
• 45:09
  one
• 45:09
  to
• 45:10
  Marco,
• 45:10
  but
• 45:10
  if
• 45:10
  you
• 45:10
  guys
• 45:11
  want
• 45:11
  to
• 45:11
  chime
• 45:11
  in.
• 45:11
  After
• 45:11
  that,
• 45:12
  he
• 45:13
  married
• 45:13
  his
• 45:13
  wife
• 45:13
  Mary
• 45:14
  in
• 45:14
  1951,
• 45:15
  had
• 45:15
  one
• 45:15
  daughter.
• 45:16
  And
• 45:16
  you
• 45:16
  know,
• 45:16
  there's
• 45:17
  some,
• 45:17
  some
• 45:17
  quotes
• 45:18
  out
• 45:18
  there.
• 45:18
  I
• 45:18
  think
• 45:18
  it
• 45:18
  was
• 45:18
  even
• 45:18
  Walter
• 45:19
  Berry
• 45:19
  saying
• 45:19
  how
• 45:20
  he
• 45:20
  greeted
• 45:20
  people
• 45:21
  was
• 45:21
  different.
• 45:23
  Marco,
• 45:23
  can
• 45:23
  you
• 45:23
  talk
• 45:24
  about
• 45:24
  that
• 45:24
  family
• 45:24
  atmosphere?
• 45:25
  What
• 45:25
  was
• 45:25
  it
• 45:26
  like
• 45:26
  for
• 45:26
  you?
• 45:26
  Maybe
• 45:27
  as
• 45:27
  a,
• 45:27
  not
• 45:28
  a
• 45:28
  Native
• 45:29
  American
• 45:29
  being
• 45:30
  welcomed
• 45:30
  into
• 45:31
  the
• 45:31
  house.
• 45:31
  What
• 45:31
  was
• 45:32
  family
• 45:32
  like
• 45:33
  for
• 45:33
  Coach
• 45:33
  Carneseca?
• 45:35
  It
• 45:35
  was
• 45:35
  special.
• 45:36
  It
• 45:36
  was
• 45:36
  the
• 45:36
  whole.
• 45:37
  I
• 45:37
  mean,
• 45:38
  there's
• 45:38
  only
• 45:38
  talk
• 45:39
  about
• 45:39
  it.
• 45:39
  Make
• 45:40
  sure,
• 45:40
  you
• 45:41
  know,
• 45:41
  keep
• 45:42
  the
• 45:42
  family
• 45:42
  happy
• 45:43
  and
• 45:43
  everybody
• 45:44
  together.
• 45:45
  That
• 45:46
  was
• 45:46
  the
• 45:46
  thing.
• 45:47
  He's
• 45:48
  always,
• 45:48
  he's
• 45:49
  always
• 45:50
  concerned,
• 45:51
  but
• 45:51
  really
• 45:51
  concerned.
• 45:52
  Not
• 45:52
  just
• 45:52
  like,
• 45:53
  because
• 45:53
  he
• 45:53
  had
• 45:54
  to.
• 45:54
  He
• 45:55
  really,
• 45:55
  really
• 45:56
  cared
• 45:56
  for
• 45:56
  people.
• 45:57
  I
• 45:57
  could
• 45:58
  give
• 45:58
  you
• 45:58
  an
• 45:58
  example.
• 45:59
  Even
• 46:01
  during
• 46:01
  the
• 46:01
  pandemic,
• 46:02
  he
• 46:02
  was
• 46:02
  the
• 46:02
  first
• 46:03
  one
• 46:03
  to
• 46:03
  call
• 46:04
  because
• 46:04
  he
• 46:05
  heard
• 46:05
  on
• 46:05
  the
• 46:06
  news
• 46:06
  that
• 46:06
  Italy
• 46:06
  was
• 46:07
  really.
• 46:07
  In
• 46:07
  a
• 46:07
  hard
• 46:07
  lockdown.
• 46:08
  And
• 46:09
  he
• 46:09
  says,
• 46:09
  marco,
• 46:09
  give
• 46:10
  me
• 46:10
  your
• 46:10
  address.
• 46:10
  I'm
• 46:11
  sending
• 46:11
  you
• 46:12
  medicine,
• 46:13
  food,
• 46:13
  anything
• 46:13
  you
• 46:14
  need.
• 46:14
  I
• 46:14
  said,
• 46:14
  coach,
• 46:15
  we're
• 46:15
  good.
• 46:15
  I
• 46:16
  mean,
• 46:16
  we
• 46:16
  just
• 46:16
  locked
• 46:17
  up,
• 46:17
  but
• 46:17
  we
• 46:17
  could.
• 46:17
  No,
• 46:17
  he
• 46:18
  insisted.
• 46:18
  He
• 46:18
  wanted
• 46:19
  to
• 46:19
  send
• 46:19
  me
• 46:19
  things.
• 46:21
  And
• 46:21
  this
• 46:21
  is
• 46:22
  30
• 46:22
  plus
• 46:23
  years
• 46:23
  afterwards.
• 46:24
  He
• 46:24
  will
• 46:24
  call,
• 46:25
  like,
• 46:25
  you
• 46:25
  know,
• 46:26
  he
• 46:26
  needed.
• 46:27
  He
• 46:27
  wanted
• 46:28
  to
• 46:28
  do
• 46:28
  things
• 46:28
  for
• 46:28
  you.
• 46:29
  And
• 46:29
  he
• 46:29
  will,
• 46:30
  you
• 46:30
  know,
• 46:30
  and
• 46:30
  he
• 46:30
  did.
• 46:31
  He's
• 46:31
  still
• 46:31
  doing
• 46:31
  it,
• 46:32
  you
• 46:32
  know,
• 46:32
  even.
• 46:33
  It's
• 46:34
  incredible.
• 46:35
  Yeah.
• 46:37
  Anybody
• 46:37
  else
• 46:37
  wanted
• 46:38
  to
• 46:38
  share
• 46:39
  a
• 46:41
  family
• 46:41
  thing
• 46:42
  about
• 46:42
  Coach?
• 46:44
  Coach,
• 46:45
  I'll
• 46:45
  jump
• 46:46
  into
• 46:46
  to
• 46:46
  kind
• 46:47
  of
• 46:47
  echo
• 46:48
  what
• 46:48
  Marco
• 46:48
  said.
• 46:49
  He
• 46:50
  would
• 46:50
  always
• 46:50
  say
• 46:52
  when
• 46:52
  I'd
• 46:52
  go
• 46:52
  to
• 46:53
  his
• 46:53
  house,
• 46:53
  and
• 46:54
  at
• 46:54
  this
• 46:54
  point,
• 46:54
  he's
• 46:55
  probably
• 46:55
  repeating
• 46:55
  himself.
• 46:56
  I
• 46:56
  wouldn't
• 46:57
  dare
• 46:57
  tell
• 46:57
  him
• 46:58
  that
• 46:58
  for
• 46:58
  fear
• 46:58
  of
• 46:58
  what
• 46:59
  would
• 46:59
  happen,
• 47:00
  but
• 47:01
  he
• 47:01
  would
• 47:02
  always
• 47:02
  greet
• 47:03
  you
• 47:03
  with
• 47:03
  a
• 47:03
  hug.
• 47:04
  At
• 47:05
  that
• 47:05
  point,
• 47:05
  I
• 47:05
  was
• 47:05
  allowed
• 47:06
  to
• 47:06
  kiss
• 47:06
  him
• 47:06
  on
• 47:06
  the
• 47:06
  head.
• 47:08
  And
• 47:08
  he'd
• 47:09
  say,
• 47:10
  he
• 47:11
  goes,
• 47:11
  guests
• 47:12
  in
• 47:12
  the
• 47:12
  living
• 47:12
  room,
• 47:13
  family
• 47:13
  in
• 47:13
  the
• 47:14
  kitchen.
• 47:14
  And
• 47:15
  we'd
• 47:16
  go
• 47:16
  in
• 47:16
  the
• 47:16
  kitchen
• 47:17
  and
• 47:19
  we
• 47:19
  would.
• 47:21
  I
• 47:21
  literally
• 47:21
  sat
• 47:22
  there
• 47:22
  with
• 47:22
  him
• 47:22
  one
• 47:22
  day
• 47:22
  for
• 47:23
  four
• 47:23
  hours.
• 47:24
  I
• 47:24
  couldn't
• 47:24
  believe
• 47:25
  the
• 47:25
  stamina.
• 47:25
  And
• 47:26
  that
• 47:26
  was
• 47:26
  just
• 47:26
  maybe
• 47:27
  eight,
• 47:28
  nine
• 47:28
  months
• 47:28
  ago.
• 47:29
  And.
• 47:30
  But
• 47:30
  we
• 47:30
  would
• 47:30
  just
• 47:31
  talk
• 47:31
  about
• 47:31
  everything
• 47:32
  that's
• 47:32
  going
• 47:32
  on.
• 47:33
  Guys
• 47:33
  that
• 47:33
  he's
• 47:33
  heard
• 47:34
  from,
• 47:34
  he's
• 47:35
  worried
• 47:35
  about.
• 47:36
  I
• 47:36
  mean,
• 47:36
  he
• 47:36
  would
• 47:37
  name
• 47:38
  people,
• 47:38
  talk
• 47:38
  about,
• 47:39
  you
• 47:39
  know,
• 47:39
  what
• 47:39
  happens
• 47:40
  to
• 47:40
  the
• 47:40
  mind
• 47:40
  when
• 47:41
  you
• 47:41
  get,
• 47:41
  you
• 47:41
  know,
• 47:42
  a
• 47:42
  certain
• 47:42
  age,
• 47:43
  dementia,
• 47:44
  stuff
• 47:44
  like
• 47:44
  that.
• 47:45
  He
• 47:45
  was
• 47:45
  sharp
• 47:46
  as
• 47:46
  attack
• 47:46
  up
• 47:47
  until
• 47:47
  the
• 47:47
  final
• 47:47
  moments.
• 47:48
  I
• 47:48
  mean,
• 47:48
  he'd
• 47:48
  be
• 47:49
  talking
• 47:49
  about
• 47:49
  guys
• 47:49
  from

• 47:52
  as
• 47:52
  if
• 47:52
  I
• 47:52

• 47:52
  them.
• 47:53
  And

  while,
• 47:55
  I
• 47:55

  I'm
• 47:56
  just

• 47:56
  to
• 47:57
  nod
• 47:57
  my
• 47:57

  talking
• 47:58
  about.
• 48:00
  But
• 48:00

  he
• 48:05
  forgot
• 48:05
  to

  was
• 49:48
  something
• 49:48
  different,
• 49:48
  but
• 49:49
  it
• 49:49
  was
• 49:49
  simple,

  very
• 49:57
  nicely

  sneakers.

  anymore.

  At

  Well,

  what,
• 50:11
  that's
• 50:11
  a
• 50:11
  great
• 50:12
  point,
• 50:12
  Rob,
• 50:12
  because
• 50:12
  I'll
• 50:13
  tell
• 50:13
  you,
• 50:13
  and
• 50:13
  I
• 50:14
  don't
• 50:14
  know
• 50:14
  if
• 50:15
  Matt
• 50:16
  will
• 50:16
  agree
• 50:16
  or.
• 50:17
  But
• 50:18
  I'm
• 50:18
  a
• 50:18
  high
• 50:18
  school
• 50:18
  coach.
• 50:19
  I
• 50:19
  coach
• 50:20
  varsity
• 50:20
  girls
• 50:21
  basketball.
• 50:22
  And
• 50:23
  the
• 50:23
  last
• 50:23
  couple
• 50:23
  of
• 50:23
  years
• 50:24
  I've
• 50:24
  been.
• 50:25
  I
• 50:25
  was
• 50:25
  staying
• 50:25
  with
• 50:25
  it
• 50:26
  with
• 50:26
  the
• 50:26
  jacket
• 50:26
  and
• 50:27
  the
• 50:27
  tie,
• 50:27
  and
• 50:27
  people
• 50:27
  would
• 50:27
  come
• 50:28
  up
• 50:28
  to
• 50:28
  me
• 50:28
  and
• 50:28
  say,
• 50:28
  what
• 50:28
  are
• 50:28
  you
• 50:28
  doing?
• 50:29
  And
• 50:29
  I
• 50:29
  said,
• 50:30
  well,
• 50:30
  what
• 50:30
  do
• 50:30
  you
• 50:31
  mean?
• 50:31
  Well,
• 50:31
  you
• 50:31
  know,
• 50:31
  where's
• 50:32
  the
• 50:32
  quarter
• 50:32
  zip
• 50:32
  or
• 50:33
  the
• 50:33
  sweats
• 50:33
  or,
• 50:34
  you
• 50:34
  know,
• 50:35
  isn't
• 50:35
  that
• 50:35
  uncomfortable?
• 50:36
  That's
• 50:37
  passed
• 50:37
  by.
• 50:38
  And
• 50:38
  I
• 50:38
  always
• 50:38
  thought
• 50:38
  that
• 50:39
  that
• 50:39
  was
• 50:39
  very,
• 50:41
  very
• 50:41
  weird
• 50:41
  because,
• 50:42
  yeah,
• 50:42
  I
• 50:42
  mean,
• 50:43
  it's
• 50:43
  respecting
• 50:43
  the
• 50:44
  game
• 50:44
  and
• 50:45
  that's
• 50:45
  what
• 50:45
  people
• 50:45
  do.
• 50:46
  Now.
• 50:47
  It's
• 50:47
  kind
• 50:47
  of
• 50:48
  like
• 50:48
  what
• 50:49
  you
• 50:49
  play
• 50:49
  the
• 50:49
  guessing
• 50:49
  game.
• 50:50
  When
• 50:51
  a

  comes
• 50:51
  out
• 50:52

  respect
• 51:02
  for

• 51:03
  Matt,
• 51:03
  I
• 51:03
  don't
• 51:03
  know
• 51:03
  if,
• 51:04
  how,
• 51:04
  how
• 51:04
  you
• 51:04
  feel
• 51:05
  about
• 51:05
  that
• 51:05
  in
• 51:06
  today's
• 51:06
  game.
• 51:06
  If,
• 51:07
  you
• 51:07
  know,
• 51:08
  if
• 51:08
  you're
• 51:08
  kind
• 51:08
  of
• 51:08
  old
• 51:09
  school
• 51:09
  in
• 51:09
  terms
• 51:09
  of
• 51:09
  your
• 51:10
  sideline.
• 51:11
  Shirt
• 51:12
  and
• 51:12
  tie.
• 51:12
  Shirt
• 51:12
  and
• 51:12
  tie,
• 51:12
  I
• 51:13
  would
• 51:13
  assume.
• 51:14
  Well,
• 51:16
  I
• 51:16
  was
• 51:16
  taught
• 51:17
  by
• 51:18
  coach.
• 51:18
  He
• 51:19
  said,
• 51:19
  listen,
• 51:20
  you
• 51:20
  show
• 51:20
  up
• 51:21
  for
• 51:21
  things
• 51:21
  important
• 51:21
  in
• 51:22
  life,
• 51:22
  you
• 51:22
  have
• 51:22
  to
• 51:23
  look
• 51:23
  your
• 51:23
  best.
• 51:23
  Whether
• 51:24
  it's
• 51:24
  a
• 51:24
  wedding,
• 51:25
  God
• 51:25
  forbid,
• 51:26
  a
• 51:26
  funeral,
• 51:26
  anything
• 51:27
  that's
• 51:27
  important,
• 51:28
  you
• 51:28
  show
• 51:29
  up
• 51:29
  looking
• 51:29
  your
• 51:29
  best.
• 51:30
  So
• 51:30
  I'm
• 51:31
  a
• 51:31
  suit
• 51:31
  and
• 51:31
  tie
• 51:32
  guy.
• 51:34
  I
• 51:34
  do
• 51:35
  get
• 51:35
  on
• 51:35
  some
• 51:35
  of
• 51:35
  the
• 51:36
  older
• 51:36
  referees
• 51:36
  good
• 51:37
  side
• 51:37
  because
• 51:37
  they
• 51:37
  like
• 51:38
  saying
• 51:38
  that.
• 51:40
  But
• 51:40
  yeah,
• 51:41
  I
• 51:42
  was
• 51:42
  a
• 51:42
  suit
• 51:42
  and
• 51:42
  tie
• 51:42
  guy.
• 51:42
  And
• 51:43
  I
• 51:43
  also
• 51:43
  make
• 51:43
  my
• 51:44
  players
• 51:44
  come
• 51:45
  dressed
• 51:45
  exactly
• 51:46
  the
• 51:46
  same
• 51:47
  in
• 51:48
  Jacket
• 51:48
  and
• 51:48
  ties.
• 51:48
  Because,
• 51:49
  as
• 51:49
  Coach
• 51:50
  would
• 51:50
  do
• 51:50
  for
• 51:50
  us,
• 51:51
  I'm
• 51:51
  trying
• 51:51
  to
• 51:51
  pass
• 51:52
  on
• 51:52
  to
• 51:52
  them,
• 51:53
  teaching
• 51:54
  them
• 51:54
  to
• 51:54
  be
• 51:54
  young
• 51:55
  men
• 51:55
  and
• 51:55
  to
• 51:56
  be
• 51:56
  responsible
• 51:56
  and
• 51:57
  respectful
• 51:58
  for
• 51:58
  other
• 51:59
  people's
• 51:59
  time.
• 52:00
  The
• 52:00
  sacrifices
• 52:01
  that
• 52:01
  we
• 52:01
  all
• 52:01
  have
• 52:02
  to
• 52:02
  give.
• 52:02
  And
• 52:03
  unfortunately,
• 52:04
  at
• 52:04
  the
• 52:04
  moment,
• 52:05
  it
• 52:05
  seems
• 52:05
  we're
• 52:05
  fighting
• 52:05
  a
• 52:06
  bit
• 52:06
  of
• 52:06
  an
• 52:06
  uptrend,
• 52:06
  uphill
• 52:07
  battle.
• 52:07
  But
• 52:08
  coach
• 52:09
  always,
• 52:10
  look
• 52:11
  your
• 52:11
  best,
• 52:11
  be
• 52:11
  your
• 52:12
  best.
• 52:12
  And
• 52:13
  I
• 52:13
  had
• 52:14
  one
• 52:14
  really
• 52:14
  quick
• 52:15
  point.
• 52:15
  I
• 52:15
  started
• 52:16
  out
• 52:16
  coaching
• 52:16
  a
• 52:16
  girl's
• 52:17
  JV
• 52:17
  team,
• 52:18
  and
• 52:18
  I
• 52:18
  showed
• 52:18
  up
• 52:18
  in
• 52:19
  a
• 52:19
  suit
• 52:19
  and
• 52:19
  tie,
• 52:20
  and
• 52:20
  I
• 52:21
  explained
• 52:21
  to
• 52:21
  the
• 52:21
  girls
• 52:22
  that
• 52:22
  the
• 52:23
  reason
• 52:23
  why
• 52:23
  I
• 52:23
  do
• 52:23
  this
• 52:24
  is
• 52:24
  because
• 52:24
  I
• 52:25
  care
• 52:25
  about
• 52:25
  you.
• 52:26
  I
• 52:26
  care
• 52:26
  about
• 52:27
  what
• 52:27
  I'm
• 52:27
  doing,
• 52:27
  and
• 52:28
  I
• 52:29
  want
• 52:29
  you
• 52:29
  to
• 52:29
  know
• 52:30
  that.
• 52:30
  And
• 52:31
  so
• 52:32
  what
• 52:33
  had
• 52:33
  happened
• 52:33
  was
• 52:34
  they.
• 52:34
  They
• 52:35
  knew
• 52:35
  that
• 52:35
  I
• 52:35
  cared
• 52:36
  a
• 52:37
  lot.
• 52:37
  In
• 52:37
  one
• 52:38
  game,
• 52:38
  I
• 52:38
  just.
• 52:39
  The
• 52:40
  cleaners
• 52:40
  was
• 52:40
  closed.
• 52:40
  I
• 52:41
  don't
• 52:41
  know
• 52:41
  what
• 52:41
  happened.
• 52:41
  And
• 52:41
  I
• 52:42
  showed
• 52:42
  up
• 52:42
  in
• 52:43
  just
• 52:43
  a
• 52:45
  shirt
• 52:46
  and
• 52:46
  a
• 52:46
  tie
• 52:46
  and
• 52:46
  pants,
• 52:47
  and
• 52:47
  the
• 52:48
  girls
• 52:48
  literally
• 52:48
  started
• 52:49
  crying.
• 52:49
  Pre
• 52:50
  game,
• 52:50
  really?
• 52:51
  And
• 52:51
  I'm
• 52:52
  like,
• 52:52
  what?
• 52:52
  I
• 52:52
  said,
• 52:53
  I
• 52:53
  go,
• 52:53
  here
• 52:53
  we
• 52:53
  go.
• 52:53
  This
• 52:53
  is
• 52:54
  what
• 52:54
  you
• 52:54
  get
• 52:54
  for
• 52:54
  coaching
• 52:54
  women.
• 52:55
  You
• 52:56
  know,
• 52:57
  jokingly,
• 52:58
  of
• 52:58
  course.
• 52:59
  And
• 52:59
  I
• 52:59
  said,
• 53:00
  what's
• 53:00
  wrong?
• 53:00
  And
• 53:00
  they
• 53:01
  said,
• 53:01
  do
• 53:01
  you
• 53:01
  not
• 53:01
  care
• 53:02
  about
• 53:02
  us
• 53:02
  anymore?
• 53:03
  Oh,
• 53:03
  wow.
• 53:04
  Yeah.
• 53:05
  And
• 53:05
  I
• 53:05
  said,
• 53:06
  of
• 53:06
  course
• 53:06
  I
• 53:07
  do.
• 53:07
  He
• 53:07
  goes,
• 53:07
  where's
• 53:08
  your
• 53:08
  suit?
• 53:08
  And
• 53:08
  I
• 53:08
  was
• 53:09
  like,
• 53:09
  I
• 53:09
  am
• 53:09
  sorry.
• 53:10
  I
• 53:10
  will
• 53:10
  never
• 53:10
  not
• 53:11
  show
• 53:11
  up
• 53:11
  again.
• 53:12
  It's
• 53:12
  not
• 53:12
  you,
• 53:12
  it's
• 53:12
  me.
• 53:13
  And
• 53:13
  a
• 53:13
  couple
• 53:14
  aside
• 53:15
  glances,
• 53:15
  but
• 53:16
  we
• 53:16
  made
• 53:16
  it
• 53:16
  through.
• 53:17
  There
• 53:17
  you
• 53:17
  go.
• 53:17
  Well,
• 53:18
  you
• 53:18
  know,
• 53:18
  as
• 53:19

  Locust
• 53:20
  Valley,
• 53:21
  every
• 53:21
  time
• 53:21
  when
• 53:21
  we're

  Chris
• 53:30
  beat
• 53:31
  me
• 53:31
  to

  it.

  He

  he's

  seen
• 53:32

  a,
• 55:03
  it's
• 55:04
  still
• 55:04
  such
• 55:04
  a

  loss.
• 55:06
  I

  know
• 55:06
  he,
• 55:07
  he
• 55:07
  had
• 55:07
  said
• 55:07
  once
• 55:08
  when
• 55:09
  he
• 55:09
  was
• 55:09
  taking
• 55:09
  care
• 55:09
  of
• 55:09
  his

  had

  was

  over
• 55:11
  100,
• 55:12
  no
• 55:12
  one
• 55:12
  really
• 55:12
  knew
• 55:12
  how
• 55:12
  old
• 55:13
  she
• 55:13
  was
• 55:13
  and
• 55:14
  she
• 55:14
  had
• 55:14
  to
• 55:14
  get
• 55:14
  some

  kind
• 55:15
  of

  or
• 55:17
  something.
• 55:18
  And
• 55:18
  I
• 55:18
  remember
• 55:18
  making
• 55:18
  a
• 55:19
  comment
• 55:19
  to
• 55:19
  him,

• 55:24
  leave
• 55:24
  the
• 55:24
  alone?
• 55:24
  And
• 55:25
  he
• 55:25
  clapped
• 55:25
  back
• 55:26
  at
• 55:26
  me
• 55:27
  and

  And
