  Speaker 4: Moarra good Monday afternoon, everybody, Scottland did it in for
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: Chip Howard.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: Today.
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: We've got the writers' round table coming up in the
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: second hour. But what a weekend of sports. We've got
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: a lot to talk about your sports headlines brought to
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: you by Radiant Dentistry. We're going to start with the Olympics.
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: We are going to, you know, pay homage to a
• 1:09
  Speaker 4: great Olympic performance by Team USA. Their most gold medals ever.
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: They get the tie breaking gold medal in the last
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: sport that he's participated and that is men's hockey. And
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: what a hockey game it was of the Canadians outplayed
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: Team USA for about twenty straight minutes, and it took
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: excellent defense, not just from the goaltender who did stand
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: on his head, but the defense the defensemen around him
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: were just as impressive. And the over time, which I'm
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: not really I don't know how I really feel about
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: three on three hockey with the gold medal on.
• 2:10
  Speaker 5: The line, but.
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: It is what the rules were. I would have liked
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: ten minutes and then a shootout. Even though Sid the
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: kid beat Team USA and I shoot out years and
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: years ago. It is okay if you get to that
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: level and you know you wanted to end instead of
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: just being on and on and on.
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: It was tremendous. I thought that.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: Even with some of the disappointment that came in certain
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: events FORSA, it showed the bump you get when you're
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: the host country. As Italy finished third in the medal count.
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: You know, I don't like them beating Americans to do it,
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: but I understand the excitement and the passion and the
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: desire that you have when you're representing your home country
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: and how that carries over, especially when two of the
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: next three Olympics are going to be held in the
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: United States, the Summer Games and not the next Winter
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: Games in France. But after that they're going to be
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: in Utah. So I understand and would expect the United
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: States to have the same kind of bump. But the
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: stories are tremendous. Mono Bob with two women in their
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: forties with their kids watching there when they get medals
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: and won to get her first gold medal ever, amazing
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: cross country skiing with this guy from Norway that wins
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: six gold medals. I watched Eric Heiden, and Eric Heiden
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: was the story of the nineteen eighty Olympics until the
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: miracle on ice. He's racing outside in the snow, wins
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: five medals.
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: And you're just like, this is a story.
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: The greatest individual performance in the history of the Winter Olympics.
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: Nothing can top this. And then hockey goes out and
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: wins the gold medal. But it didn't take anything away
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: from what Eric Hiden did either. It just his miracle
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: on ice was overshadowed by Team USA Hockey's miracle on ice.
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: So that was tremendous. The fact that it had been
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: for two years, I mean forty six years to the
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: day since the miracle on ice was amazing. The fact
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: that Gudrou's son, who they brought to the ice after
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: the wind, that was his birthday. The coincidence of time
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: and date was amazing. But it, you know, after two weeks,
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: it's kind of weird because you got you know, I'm
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: going to get back to my regular sports watching and
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: other things.
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: Because that was just so exciting and.
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: It just makes me look forward to next Olympics in
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: Los Angeles. But I'm you know, I like the fact
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: that Team USA was able to go out there and
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: have as good at performance as they've ever had. Twelve goals,
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: twelve silver, nine bronze, thirty three total medals, and the
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: Norway Olympics, because let's face it, it belongs to Norway,
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: that little bitty speck of the country dominates the winner
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: Olympics like.
• 6:29
  Speaker 5: No other.
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: Eighteen gold medals, twelve silver, eleven bronze, forty one total.
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: Italy third ten gold medals, six silver and fourteen bronze,
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: So just amazing.
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: Two weeks.
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: Closing ceremonies were good, but by that time I'm ready
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: for you know it to go on, But plenty of
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: youngsters will have have watched halfpipe, skiing, hockey, Bob's letting,
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: whatever it is, And even if it's in certain parts
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: of the country that are not Olympic type areas, they
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: will have watched this and said, I want to do that.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: I want to compete at the highest level. I want
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: to be an Olympian. And the Olympics still can evoke
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: that when they stay away from politics and they just
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: let the sports dominate the headlines, it's wonderful. Now, I'm
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: not naive enough to not understand everything that goes on
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: and how people look at the Olympics and say, well,
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: you can't get away from the politics. All right, But
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: Lindsey Vaughn sang today that the the third surgery she
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: had kept her from losing her leg, that they were
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: going to amputate if this surgery wasn't successful, and it was.
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: I know there is I know there is politics around goo,
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: but finding out after she wins a gold medal that
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: her grandmother has passed away, that they're holding that back
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: because they don't want to impact her performance.
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: So all of that.
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: Is what makes the best part of the Olympics the
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: best part they can be.
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: So that was great. That was great. Aggie baseball was great.
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: Sweatpen to walk off wins, get oldsen magic and weak
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: one doesn't happen that often, but it happens this. I mean,
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry Week two hardly ever, get it back to back.
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: A and M scored one in the eighth inning of
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: Game two to tie it and then wins it in extras.
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: Then they're able.
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: To make the adjustment to how the conditions were being
• 9:23
  Speaker 4: played and able to go out and get a seven
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: to one victory on Sunday and give up one earned run,
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: give up four runs total in three games, strike out
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: seventy nine and not walk a single batter. That's what
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: a great formula for you to go out and get
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: a sweep. The Aggies are up to number eighteen in
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: the National Collegian Baseball Writers Poll. They have a tough
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: weekend ahead Virginia Tech UCLA in Arizona State this weekend. Lamar,
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: who has been a up and coming program that should
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: have been in the College rule, I mean, should have
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: been in the NCAA Tournament two years ago but was snubbed.
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: They you know, they'll show up and they'll.
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: Give you everything you want. Jace Hutchins, now they're pitching coach,
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: will coach against his father and the Aggies.
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: To go from.
• 10:34
  Speaker 4: Bad boy to coaching against Texas, A and M, it's
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: pretty special. I've known Jace his whole life. It will
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: be very interesting to see this. But to be twenty
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: five years old and the pitching coach at Lamar is
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: just a wonderful thing that I will get to experience
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: tomorrow night when I call the game. Let's see what
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: else Aggie softball just got. I was talking with Dusty
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: about out what happened on Sunday, giving up the two
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: Grand Slams on a win a really windy day where
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: the ball is carrying out the Aggies, A chase UCLA's
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: All American pitcher, and then UCLA pounded the good ones
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: for A and M, including a closer who's been All
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: American at Missouri. So that is something they'll try to overcome.
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: The schedule will step back from everybody being a top
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: twenty five team basically to having a chance to fix
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: some of the things that they want to fix. But
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: Thursday night against Houston, Houston is eleven and two and
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: playing much better softball. I don't think they're at the
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: Aggies level, but they're playing A and M this week
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: on Thursday, and then they're going to Austin to play
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: in the Longhorns Tournament. So know a little bit more
• 11:48
  Speaker 4: about the Houston Cougars at the end of this week.
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: But that'll be a challenge for Texas A and M
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: as well. Aggie basketball, the women beat our senior Day.
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: They are up to five and nine. I know they're
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: twelve and eleven, but they play Mississippi State next. Mississippi
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: State is the last SEC team in the NCAA bracket.
• 12:12
  Speaker 4: According to bracketology on ESPN. A and M has the
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: same conference record, and they're about to play head to head,
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: and then they play Old miss who is a beatable
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: top twenty five team. When you're talking that, A and
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: M has beaten two of their last two times and
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: their last three wins they beaten the top twenty five
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: team and one has been at home when one has
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: been on the road, So they have an opportunity there.
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: Men's basketball fights tooth and nail with with Oklahoma again
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: and comes up with a road win. After our break,
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: we're gonna come back. We're gonna hear what Bucky had
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: to say today when he met the press, because you know,
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: for them to go out and take care of business
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: like they did, it's a huge, huge victory for A
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: and M to get to break the losing streak, to
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: get back on the right side, to point in the
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: right direction. This was a good week for Aggie basketball
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: and and and we're going to hear what the head
• 13:19
  Speaker 4: man had to say because they were They have got
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: to be excited about what is happening with the basketball team.
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: So all of that coming up, but it was a
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: great sports weekend. Trying to think of anything else. I mean,
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: preseason baseball has started up. We might touch on that
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: a little bit later on. But excited. It's just it's
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: a good time of year. And I think that when

  Speaker 4: are winning, you know, you you you know, you walk
• 13:59

  Speaker 9: of year, You're gonna know what you're supposed to be doing.

  Speaker 9: But let's just take this to old school basketball. Either
• 15:52
  Speaker 9: you're going to stop the guy that's in front of you,
• 15:54
  Speaker 9: you're not. You're gonna get the loose ball when a
• 15:57
  Speaker 9: shoe and that guy, you're not. You're gonna get the
• 15:59
  Speaker 9: rebound when shoe in that guy next year you're not.
• 16:01
  Speaker 9: You're gonna finish through their contact or you're not. No,
• 16:04
  Speaker 9: you're saying what ain't coach sounds like you're deferring it
• 16:06
  Speaker 9: to the players. Well, I've just been real. I was
• 16:09
  Speaker 9: a player and I've.
• 16:11
  Speaker 8: Just lived this too long.
• 16:12
  Speaker 9: At this time of year, you got to give the
• 16:14
  Speaker 9: players confidence they can do it, put them in great spots.
• 16:17
  Speaker 9: But I just want our players to know that and
• 16:20
  Speaker 9: take that personal. And I thought they did versus.
• 16:22
  Speaker 7: Oklahoma, Texacts Live, brought to you by David Gardner's Jewelers
• 16:25
  Speaker 7: hang Out weekdays from eight to eleven on the Zone.
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: All right, Texas. A and M, as we talked about,
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: was able to go beat Oklahoma and a big win
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: to get them pointed back in the right direction. I
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: think Joe Lonardi had the Aggies as a ten seed.
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: You know that's a that's a really good spot for
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: A and M CBS sports line as an M as
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: a nine, So you're either you're talking about either a
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: one or two if you were able to win a
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: first round game. Eight nine ten is seven ten games,
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: so you know you're trying to you're trying to climb up.
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: I don't know if A and M could get to
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: a seven, but they might. Bucky's got im pointing in
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: the right direction, and they've withstood some close losses and
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: the one blowout to Vandy, and I think the head
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: coach here will tell us what he thinks about how
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: his ball club is playing. Here's Bucky mcmillant.
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: You're sure that at the worst, y'all finish five in
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: SEC play.
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: Do you have any number in minds that you feel
• 18:04
  Speaker 4: like you'll need to reach to to feel real comfortable
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: getting in the tournament.
• 18:09
  Speaker 8: I got a number in mine. I want to get
• 18:10
  Speaker 8: to this thirteen four more games.
• 18:13
  Speaker 10: But no, I mean, look, I think that you know,
• 18:17
  Speaker 10: you you got to keep grinding.
• 18:19
  Speaker 8: We don't have any bad losses.
• 18:20
  Speaker 10: We've shown that we are a great team at home
• 18:25
  Speaker 10: and on the road particularly. I mean, you know, if
• 18:27
  Speaker 10: you think about our road games and the toughest league
• 18:29
  Speaker 10: in the country in SEC has the toughest places to
• 18:32
  Speaker 10: play in the country. We we We've gone to Alabama,
• 18:35
  Speaker 10: we lost by three. We won at Auburn, one at Texas,
• 18:39
  Speaker 10: one at Georgia, one at Oklahoma, double overtime at Tennessee.
• 18:43
  Speaker 8: Uh.
• 18:43
  Speaker 10: The only one we didn't play well in was was Vanderbilt.
• 18:46
  Speaker 10: We lost by double digits. But you know, I think
• 18:50
  Speaker 10: when you're looking at numbers and all that, when when
• 18:52
  Speaker 10: you evaluate things like that, you know, if you have
• 18:54
  Speaker 10: a winning record in the SEC, the toughest league in
• 18:57
  Speaker 10: the country, and you have shown you can do it
• 19:00
  Speaker 10: distantly on the road, that's a great sign for the
• 19:02
  Speaker 10: INSA tournament, right, And I think you also got to
• 19:04
  Speaker 10: look at teams that are our team specifically.
• 19:09
  Speaker 8: You know, you thought the first four games of the season.
• 19:11
  Speaker 10: You look at this team, you're going to say, team's
• 19:14
  Speaker 10: been able to play it with a lot of these
• 19:16
  Speaker 10: teams that are gonna have some nice seeds in this tournament.
• 19:19
  Speaker 10: So you know, it's me bragging on our team, But
• 19:22
  Speaker 10: I want to finish this thing off right and play
• 19:25
  Speaker 10: well here in this last four games.
• 19:27
  Speaker 11: It will be enough to ensure that you get in
• 19:30
  Speaker 11: as good as they are.
• 19:31
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I don't know.
• 19:32
  Speaker 10: I mean, like you know, I would. I would think
• 19:34
  Speaker 10: our body works pretty dangn good right now. So I
• 19:37
  Speaker 10: don't want to put game pressure either way more than
• 19:40
  Speaker 10: the pressure that you know, we put on ourselves to
• 19:42
  Speaker 10: play well. And I think that we got a team
• 19:44
  Speaker 10: that if we play well, it just takes care of itself,
• 19:46
  Speaker 10: you know. I mean, I'm not thinking about the Insay
• 19:50
  Speaker 10: Tournament as much as I'm thinking about, like, how can
• 19:53
  Speaker 10: we possition ourselves to be in a spot somehow can
• 19:57
  Speaker 10: peop for a championship in this league? And if it
• 19:59
  Speaker 10: can't be done, if Florida runs the table and that
• 20:02
  Speaker 10: does or deal with, then how can we have the
• 20:03
  Speaker 10: best seed possible for the SEC Tournament to give ourselves
• 20:06
  Speaker 10: a chance here to get bys double buys get to
• 20:10
  Speaker 10: the semis, and you know, if you think like that,
• 20:13
  Speaker 10: what's in front of you? And you know the way
• 20:15
  Speaker 10: to do that is not to focus on that, but
• 20:16
  Speaker 10: I focus on playing good basketball. Everything else should take
• 20:19
  Speaker 10: care of itself.
• 20:21
  Speaker 12: You probably had one of your better defensive performances on Saturday,
• 20:24
  Speaker 12: especially in that second half.
• 20:25
  Speaker 13: Just what'd you feel like?
• 20:26
  Speaker 12: We're maybe some of the little things all did really
• 20:28
  Speaker 12: well that you can take from that some keeach tape maybe.
• 20:31
  Speaker 8: Well.
• 20:31
  Speaker 10: I think our players took up the game personal, like
• 20:33
  Speaker 10: and I mentioned this, you know, I mentioned this on
• 20:35
  Speaker 10: the radio. Is that so this time of year? And
• 20:38
  Speaker 10: I wouldn't be careful. I want to say this after
• 20:40
  Speaker 10: we've won, because sometime if you lose it, you know,
• 20:42
  Speaker 10: like this's a players game. They're like, okay, sure it
• 20:45
  Speaker 10: is now right, but this time of year it really
• 20:47
  Speaker 10: becomes a players game. And I want to say if
• 20:49
  Speaker 10: we had two wins, because here's why the schemes. Everybody
• 20:55
  Speaker 10: knows each other by now we know what the other
• 20:58
  Speaker 10: players can do.
• 20:59
  Speaker 8: They know what our players can do.
• 21:00
  Speaker 10: They're gonna know what defenses we run, We're gonna know
• 21:03
  Speaker 10: what they run. You don't see too many I got
• 21:06
  Speaker 10: you plays out there this time of year, it is
• 21:08
  Speaker 10: literally like who wins the matchup? Like Rylan Griffin that
• 21:12
  Speaker 10: last possession we went to win his matchup. He finished
• 21:15
  Speaker 10: through contact and got a bucket. And then there were
• 21:18
  Speaker 10: several players on defense in that game. They had their
• 21:21
  Speaker 10: guy and said, you know, coach told me to guard you.
• 21:24
  Speaker 10: Your night's over with, right, And that's what I mentioned
• 21:28
  Speaker 10: on the water I mean what I mentioned on the
• 21:30
  Speaker 10: radio earlier. It's like who can cut who's water off
• 21:32
  Speaker 10: that night? And I think that's really what it comes
• 21:34
  Speaker 10: down to this time of year. It's like I got you.
• 21:37
  Speaker 10: Oh now they ran a screen. I switch off. Now
• 21:39
  Speaker 10: I got you. It's over for you. Oh switch back,
• 21:41
  Speaker 10: I got you. Now it's back over for you. And
• 21:44
  Speaker 10: that's the mindset you got to play with this time
• 21:46
  Speaker 10: of year.
• 21:47
  Speaker 12: We could go back, start to get a little bit
• 21:48
  Speaker 12: against the wall. Just what have you seen for maybe
• 21:50
  Speaker 12: just the sense of urgency from your guys these last
• 21:52
  Speaker 12: couple of games.
• 21:53
  Speaker 10: Well just you know, a lot of teams wait till
• 21:56
  Speaker 10: they get to then say tournament, are their their life
• 21:59
  Speaker 10: on the line to really fight. I haven't felt that
• 22:02
  Speaker 10: from this team. I would say at Vandy were a
• 22:04
  Speaker 10: little fatigued. But you know, I don't think lack of
• 22:07
  Speaker 10: fight has been the issue with this team or any point.
• 22:10
  Speaker 10: I'm not saying there is issues with them. This team
• 22:11
  Speaker 10: is one of the most what some would consider an
• 22:14
  Speaker 10: overachieving team right in a lot of ways. I'm not
• 22:17
  Speaker 10: telling wins and losses. They just give you what everything
• 22:20
  Speaker 10: they got. But a lot of teams they get the
• 22:22
  Speaker 10: NCA Tournament and they're in their basketball lives on the line.
• 22:24
  Speaker 10: Now they are really gonna fight. You know UFC right there,
• 22:27
  Speaker 10: we just talked about it earlier. They wait till they
• 22:29
  Speaker 10: get in the octagon and they're really gonna fight. Well,
• 22:31
  Speaker 10: how did you train the sixty days leading up to that, right,
• 22:35
  Speaker 10: Because if you walk in the octagon and you know
• 22:38
  Speaker 10: you getn't done that that's an eerie feeling. So to
• 22:42
  Speaker 10: get to the NSA Tournament, you got to have the
• 22:44
  Speaker 10: same sense of urgency every night that your life's on
• 22:47
  Speaker 10: the line. And I think you've seen that from our guys.
• 22:50
  Speaker 10: With six games left, I told our players, let's play
• 22:53
  Speaker 10: this like this is our NCA tournament, one at a time.
• 22:55
  Speaker 10: Now we're in sweet sixteen, going up to Tarkansas. Because
• 22:58
  Speaker 10: to win the nca Tournament. You gotta win six games.
• 23:01
  Speaker 10: So let's treat it like that. So that way, when
• 23:04
  Speaker 10: we get to the NSAY Tournament, we know that feeling.
• 23:07
  Speaker 14: Remember during many.
• 23:08
  Speaker 12: Days that Kyle kind of gave you some indirect advice
• 23:10
  Speaker 12: about how to build a program.
• 23:12
  Speaker 8: There's not really a team the year of you guys.
• 23:14
  Speaker 12: I mean, what's that relationship like between you two And
• 23:16
  Speaker 12: is there any sort of challenge of sort of pushing
• 23:18
  Speaker 12: through the hall of famous stique, you know, lest your players.
• 23:22
  Speaker 10: Yeah, I've just never looked at basketball that way in
• 23:24
  Speaker 10: terms of coaching, Like I just I've been in it
• 23:26
  Speaker 10: so long. I think a lot of the coaches in
• 23:28
  Speaker 10: general that that I just never looked at it as
• 23:32
  Speaker 10: coaches versus coaches kind of coach our team. But to
• 23:35
  Speaker 10: your point on on Caliperio, I knew him. He recruited
• 23:39
  Speaker 10: one of my players in high school. Very genuine person,
• 23:44
  Speaker 10: you know. Obviously he was in the spot we were
• 23:48
  Speaker 10: last year with very very pretty much a new team.
• 23:51
  Speaker 10: They struggled at parts, and that's I think they lost
• 23:53
  Speaker 10: their first five or games or so in the SEC
• 23:55
  Speaker 10: and that right, and then they went on to get
• 23:57
  Speaker 10: to the sweet sixteen or very close to could have
• 23:59
  Speaker 10: made the lead eight. So you know, that's a model
• 24:03
  Speaker 10: for how you got to stay the course and keep
• 24:05
  Speaker 10: your eye on the prize, which is to play your
• 24:06
  Speaker 10: best basketball towards the latter part of the season. You know,
• 24:10
  Speaker 10: that doesn't mean you're cruising to the latter part. That
• 24:11
  Speaker 10: just means that you're improving day by day.
• 24:14
  Speaker 15: Sort of touched on it there, but it's like, is
• 24:16
  Speaker 15: there game by game discussion on like this is.
• 24:18
  Speaker 5: What we need to do to get a double buy
• 24:20
  Speaker 5: and stuff like that?
• 24:20
  Speaker 8: Is that part of the mass.
• 24:21
  Speaker 12: Shoot to this crew?
• 24:22
  Speaker 10: We just talk about like how we're going to improve
• 24:24
  Speaker 10: and play our best basketball, Like that's really the key,
• 24:27
  Speaker 10: Like you don't when you start getting those are results,
• 24:31
  Speaker 10: you know what I'm saying, Like, I mean like and
• 24:33
  Speaker 10: I would say, I would say that just in the
• 24:35
  Speaker 10: duration of our our time here, so hopefully y'all have
• 24:39
  Speaker 10: me forever, it's you know, so we can go and
• 24:40
  Speaker 10: get those ten natties. But in the duration of our
• 24:43
  Speaker 10: time here, we cannot be so honed.
• 24:46
  Speaker 8: In on results.
• 24:48
  Speaker 10: Like I just give you this example. We had a
• 24:50
  Speaker 10: losing streep. We went at george We went at Georgia,
• 24:52
  Speaker 10: we lost at Alabama. We didn't play well versus Florida, Okay,
• 24:58
  Speaker 10: and then we lose a time. Well, I guess it
• 25:00
  Speaker 10: was Missouri next, right, Well, everyone's up and like, hey,
• 25:03
  Speaker 10: what's going on? We played great at Bama, right, I mean,
• 25:07
  Speaker 10: Missouri's beat Florida and we were there in a one
• 25:09
  Speaker 10: point game, like I didn't like I played at Bandy.
• 25:13
  Speaker 10: But it can't be Oh, everything's great because we're winning,
• 25:16
  Speaker 10: but everything's terrible if we lose a game. You know,
• 25:19
  Speaker 10: we got to stay the course and not be results oriented.
• 25:21
  Speaker 10: And so I bring that up to say, this is
• 25:25
  Speaker 10: that we got to stay that way in this time.
• 25:28
  Speaker 10: We can't be worried about well, how do we get it?
• 25:29
  Speaker 10: By how do we get it? How do we do this?
• 25:31
  Speaker 10: You know, everything takes care of itself if you focus
• 25:35
  Speaker 10: and stay the course on playing well, you know, like
• 25:38
  Speaker 10: just playing well, and that means practicing well.
• 25:40
  Speaker 8: And if you do that, you're going to get what
• 25:42
  Speaker 8: you deserve.
• 25:43
  Speaker 12: I guess, as you guys, maybe aimed at crescendo and
• 25:46
  Speaker 12: continue improving the little things. How much of a discussion
• 25:49
  Speaker 12: maybe a spree through shooting been in that regard of
• 25:51
  Speaker 12: just something to try and continue.
• 25:53
  Speaker 8: To improve yeah. I mean, you always want to improve
• 25:55
  Speaker 8: what you can.
• 25:55
  Speaker 10: I mean, I don't overheart free throws, you know, I
• 25:58
  Speaker 10: think that that can be detrimental. There'll be uh, you know,
• 26:02
  Speaker 10: for the last game, Josh, he's just out there working
• 26:05
  Speaker 10: with his free throw he missed a couple of that game.
• 26:09
  Speaker 10: You know, that brought the percentages down. That he's working
• 26:12
  Speaker 10: on something that's thinking, I think is really gonna help him.
• 26:14
  Speaker 8: But I think.
• 26:15
  Speaker 10: Sometimes instead of us worrying so much about the glass
• 26:19
  Speaker 10: half empty, not not you guys, but just in general,
• 26:22
  Speaker 10: let's look glass half full and let's say, man, what
• 26:25
  Speaker 10: about Rashaun going up there and icing.
• 26:27
  Speaker 8: Those free throws there?
• 26:28
  Speaker 10: Just like, hey, no over for you guys, I'm icing these,
• 26:33
  Speaker 10: you know, just throw it into rashaan foul me come on,
• 26:36
  Speaker 10: and like then the next time Rashaun's gonna be in
• 26:38
  Speaker 10: that spot, come on. And I mean, I think that's
• 26:41
  Speaker 10: the thing we got to remember, is that, like life's
• 26:44
  Speaker 10: not perfect, either's basketball.
• 26:45
  Speaker 8: How can you persevere when it's not perfect?
• 26:48
  Speaker 10: And that's really what's gonna matter the most down the
• 26:51
  Speaker 10: stretch here, because it's not going to be perfect.
• 26:53
  Speaker 12: Darius Akov, one of the nation's best scorers, of what
• 26:56
  Speaker 12: you've seen from him, and what would you say is
• 26:58
  Speaker 12: kind of the key to learning instroduction.
• 27:01
  Speaker 10: Oh yeah, great player, just kind of can get going
• 27:04
  Speaker 10: every single way, full court, half court.
• 27:08
  Speaker 8: Tough. But he scored but.
• 27:10
  Speaker 10: One hundred and seventy five points on Bama the other night.
• 27:13
  Speaker 10: I mean, unbelievable. Just the players in this league, you know,
• 27:15
  Speaker 10: they're just they're great players. So you know he's gonna
• 27:19
  Speaker 10: get his. They just can't let them be easy, right,
• 27:21
  Speaker 10: I mean, you can't look up if he has forty
• 27:23
  Speaker 10: and you know twenty two, we're just like nothing.
• 27:25
  Speaker 8: He only had to work for eighteen. So a good player.
• 27:28
  Speaker 5: Though, that's head coach Bucky McMillan. The Aggie's able to
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: hold off Oklahoma.
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: It's forty three, forty one at halftime, seventy five seventy
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: one the final. The Aggie's just had two guys in
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: double figures. Ag had eighteen, Griffin had fourteen. But everybody
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: else who played eighteen or more minutes gave you points,
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: gave you rebounds, plenty of assist So just a great
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: all around performance. The Aggies did it in the paint.
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: They were they made one less three pointers than oh
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: you did oh you shot twenty of twenty four from
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: the free throw line. A and M was eleven of
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: twenty one of those games where they weren't as good
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: as they have been, but eleven of twenty. But the
• 28:35
  Speaker 4: ability to score at the hoop was the difference for
• 28:38
  Speaker 4: the Aggies this night. And that's you know sometimes I
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: you know, I'm watching as like, if you major layups,
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: this game wouldn't even be close. Well, the other teams
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: defending those layups too, they're not just letting you walk
• 28:52
  Speaker 4: in and go to the you know, make a layup.
• 28:56
  Speaker 4: A and M doesn't just let you go make a layup.
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: But you know, it's sometimes when I'm watching the game,
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: I'm like, that's where you have As the games get
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: tighter and they get tougher and it gets to be march,
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: that's where you have to if that's the part of
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: your game that you're not having a lot of success,
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: can you have success with that? This was a game
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: where the Aggies did scored seven more buckets inside the
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: three point line, then oh you did so just a
• 29:26
  Speaker 4: great job. A and M was it eight and five
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: with Texas, Missouri, Vandy, and Kentucky the other four loss
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: A and m one went to nine and five, got
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: a game on them. Now here's you have Arkansas coming up.
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: They're ten and four, one game in front of you,
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: and they're in the top four teams in the league.
• 29:48
  Speaker 4: They're in the double by position. And that's where coaches
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: talking about, right there in front of us, the next
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: game affects how we can and where we can finish
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: shat and how high we can be in the conference tournament.
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: And when you have that right in front of you,
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: it makes it easy to look at Arkansas and see
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: that in Texas and Kentucky, and then you get to LSU,
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: which is going to be playing the end of the
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: string there, but you're at their place, and if you
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: play good against Arkansas, Texas and Kentucky, you're not going
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: to give one of those back because you don't show
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: up at LSU. And that's one of the good things
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: I think Bucky. I think Bucky in that interview and
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: his interviews that have come out, that's why it's on
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: the process and not just the results. It's easy to
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: talk about the results when you're nine to five in
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: this league, okay, but when you also four in a row,
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: everybody was about the results, and it was like, no,
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: you know, hey, we won a one point game against
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: Ole miss and we lost that one point game against Missouri.
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: Could have won, either one, could have lost, either one
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: went one in one. Did you get better because of
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: those games? I think the Aggies have all right. When
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: we come back, we'll talk to Aggie Baseball here on

  Speaker 4: Aggies did get some walks, but they didn't give up
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: any and that was huge for this program. May have
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: been a long time, I think it was twenty eighteen
• 33:54
  Speaker 4: the last time the Aggies had a three game series
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: and didn't issue a single walk. They only had one
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: earned run that went on the board and another one
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: that by scoring change became an unearned run. That was
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: the run on Saturday. But A and M is playing
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: good baseball. Still has some things to work out, and
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: some of the guys that are out there, you know,
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: giving you some some you know, some of the key hits,
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: the key defensive plays are not necessarily who you expected
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: of them be. Sorell got spiked, didn't play yesterday. Jakopian
• 34:38
  Speaker 4: a back issue has kind of been bothering him. See
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: if he's going to be ready to go this weekend.
• 34:45
  Speaker 4: You know that that was difficult because you're trying to
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: play the best baseball you can. I mean, uh, Serell
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: went out and played in the outfield. Now he couldn't bat,
• 34:59
  Speaker 4: and so who do you give the bat to? Well,
• 35:01
  Speaker 4: you gave it to Sawyer Far and he ties the
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: game and then ends up winning the game with a
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: walk off walk. So you know he walked that way.
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: He walked that all the way to a dub. But
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: I just you know, some of the things you have
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: to deal with. Well, I mean, you're not gonna have
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: to deal with injuries like you did last year, at
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: least you hope not. But you know Wesley Jordan coming
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: up hurt a little bit.
• 35:31
  Speaker 5: Coach will talk.
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: About him in just a second. You have other guys
• 35:35
  Speaker 4: that all of a sudden are put in a position
• 35:37
  Speaker 4: where are they going to embrace it? Well, now they're
• 35:41
  Speaker 4: not just freshmen doing it. You're having a sophomore like
• 35:45
  Speaker 4: Sawyer Far who went through personal struggles last year.
• 35:51
  Speaker 5: So I look at those and I say, hey, is
• 35:54
  Speaker 5: this point in the right direction?
• 35:55
  Speaker 4: Okay, A and M had almost the same record last year,
• 36:02
  Speaker 4: you're undefeated. This was a time of year when everything's
• 36:05
  Speaker 4: kind of snowballed after Gavin Garhova got hurt, you and
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: you didn't know when Sorella was going.
• 36:11
  Speaker 5: To be back.
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: Well, does it look a whole lot different right now? Well,
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: they're playing a lot different. They're playing with confidence, they're
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: having guys pick each other up. And right now, that's
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: why A and M jumped in the rankings up till
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: number eighteen. And that's why A and him is seven
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: and zero. And here's the head coach after the series
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: sweep against Penn.
• 36:37
  Speaker 14: Coach Aiden Simms. What can you say about him?
• 36:40
  Speaker 18: And how awesome that was awesome?
• 36:42
  Speaker 19: I mean, throwing strikes four pitches in any count, and
• 36:48
  Speaker 19: he gets out of it for a brief moment, he
• 36:49
  Speaker 19: gets right back into It's just very consistent.
• 36:53
  Speaker 18: He's just a really, really good pitcher.
• 36:55
  Speaker 14: What does he provide this bold club considering he doesn't
• 36:57
  Speaker 14: look like a Sunday starter at least in the early going.
• 37:00
  Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean hope, we hope you get to that right, like, oh,
• 37:03
  Speaker 19: that guy's on Sunday, But right now he's providing us
• 37:06
  Speaker 19: with strikes and giving us a chance to win, and
• 37:08
  Speaker 19: he's doing everything we've asked of him, and he's just
• 37:11
  Speaker 19: he's doing a really good job.
• 37:12
  Speaker 14: After the meeting and the message you had with the
• 37:14
  Speaker 14: offense last night, what did you see from your unit today?
• 37:16
  Speaker 18: I thought they just you know, situation. They hit really well.
• 37:20
  Speaker 19: Two strike approach was a lot better. And it's not
• 37:23
  Speaker 19: only just a two strike approach, not just taking pitches.
• 37:26
  Speaker 18: They can hit in the count.
• 37:27
  Speaker 19: Like the idea of the offense is to swinging strikes
• 37:30
  Speaker 19: and take balls. Yesterday we took the strikes, swung at
• 37:34
  Speaker 19: the balls way too many times, and it's always just
• 37:36
  Speaker 19: about the strike. It's about a pitch you can handle.
• 37:38
  Speaker 19: They swung at pitches they can handle when they could
• 37:40
  Speaker 19: when they got the two strikes, they made adjustments to
• 37:43
  Speaker 19: stay on baseballs.
• 37:45
  Speaker 18: Yeah, I mean, yesterday was obviously not what we wanted.
• 37:47
  Speaker 19: But like I've said before, this team's responded all year,
• 37:50
  Speaker 19: and their response was great today.
• 37:52
  Speaker 20: Travis was obviously successful on the squeeze in the bottom
• 37:55
  Speaker 20: of the seven.
• 37:55
  Speaker 8: How big of a role do you see the small
• 37:57
  Speaker 8: ball playing in the future.
• 37:59
  Speaker 18: Yeah, and we got a chance to get a run
• 38:01
  Speaker 18: and extend the lead. We're gonna do it now. Personnel
• 38:03
  Speaker 18: is everything, like it's not really.
• 38:07
  Speaker 19: If it's Gavin Up or maybe Currel or something like that,
• 38:10
  Speaker 19: maybe not that situation has to be the right guy.
• 38:12
  Speaker 19: But if we can get a run and we feel
• 38:14
  Speaker 19: like the personnel's right and the look is right, you
• 38:17
  Speaker 19: know we're gonna.
• 38:18
  Speaker 18: We're gonna do it.
• 38:19
  Speaker 8: It's good.
• 38:19
  Speaker 14: Any update on a Wesley Jordan, I know BEDI in
• 38:22
  Speaker 14: plated update.
• 38:24
  Speaker 18: On Yeah, I just you know, lower body injury. We'll see.
• 38:28
  Speaker 21: I'm not he wasn't He couldn't have played today, and
• 38:32
  Speaker 21: I think I don't want to say it's day by
• 38:33
  Speaker 21: day or what it is, but we're hopeful to get
• 38:35
  Speaker 21: him back sometime this next week.
• 38:37
  Speaker 14: No Jordan knows, Serrill, No, kope. And what have you
• 38:39
  Speaker 14: learned about your team dealing with some early season injuries.
• 38:42
  Speaker 19: Yeah, it's unfortunate for those guys and everyone. We all
• 38:45
  Speaker 19: want to see him playing it. You know, we're gonna
• 38:48
  Speaker 19: get him back at some point and be good. But
• 38:49
  Speaker 19: you got to be ready to play, and you never
• 38:51
  Speaker 19: know when your number is gonna get caught, and you
• 38:54
  Speaker 19: you get into a season, it looks like you're buried
• 38:56
  Speaker 19: back there in the lineup, and then all of a sudden,
• 38:59
  Speaker 19: you're so your far and you're up to bat when
• 39:01
  Speaker 19: it matters the most and you get it done. He
• 39:03
  Speaker 19: played great again today, So a resilient group. I mean,
• 39:06
  Speaker 19: injuries are injuries. But here's again, there's no asterisk. Either
• 39:09
  Speaker 19: win or you lose. So guys we put in there,
• 39:11
  Speaker 19: we expect him to play well enough to win, and
• 39:12
  Speaker 19: they've done that.
• 39:13
  Speaker 22: Coachill Michigal with Zamee Becker behind the distday and what
• 39:16
  Speaker 22: you see.
• 39:16
  Speaker 18: From him do yeah.
• 39:17
  Speaker 19: I mean, zan Zain is right there right, and we
• 39:20
  Speaker 19: think he's a really good catcher too, and I think
• 39:22
  Speaker 19: he can even be better with the bat. There's more
• 39:23
  Speaker 19: in there. He should more in practice and even in
• 39:25
  Speaker 19: the scrimmages. So just again like we don't want to
• 39:29
  Speaker 19: crush any guy behind the play if you feel like,
• 39:31
  Speaker 19: we've got two really good ones.
• 39:32
  Speaker 18: So he did an.
• 39:33
  Speaker 19: Awesome job back there, and you're gonna continue to see
• 39:36
  Speaker 19: him play.
• 39:37
  Speaker 18: You know, those guys are those guys are competing, so
• 39:39
  Speaker 18: we'll keep going. But I mean, Bear Bear's a really
• 39:41
  Speaker 18: good player. I think Bear is gonna play a lot
• 39:43
  Speaker 18: better than he's played.
• 39:45
  Speaker 19: Nothing with him not playing today has anything to do
• 39:47
  Speaker 19: with swinging the bat because he's been He's gonna swing
• 39:50
  Speaker 19: the bat just.
• 39:51
  Speaker 18: Fine, and he's catching phenomenally.
• 39:53
  Speaker 19: So we just wanted to get him off his feet
• 39:54
  Speaker 19: and get zaying back there because we tell comfort all them.
• 39:56
  Speaker 18: Back there as well.
• 39:57
  Speaker 14: Back to pitching, I believe it was no free pass,
• 39:59
  Speaker 14: as they should go your staff the entire weekend.
• 40:01
  Speaker 18: Yeah, twenty nine, What do you make of that?
• 40:03
  Speaker 14: And what is this pitching staff capable of? As you
• 40:07
  Speaker 14: move forward?
• 40:08
  Speaker 19: Anytime pitchers to throw strikes, don't walk anyone at all
• 40:11
  Speaker 19: or hit anyone at all.
• 40:13
  Speaker 18: They just give you a chance to win.
• 40:15
  Speaker 19: And then when you do that, you throw some good
• 40:17
  Speaker 19: stuff up there and they get deep in games.
• 40:20
  Speaker 18: They really give you a chance to win.
• 40:22
  Speaker 19: So if it wasn't for those guys, don't we don't
• 40:24
  Speaker 19: win either of those first two ball games, like no
• 40:28
  Speaker 19: doubt in my mind, I mean Claire's day. Those guys
• 40:31
  Speaker 19: kept us in the game, they got deep in the game,
• 40:32
  Speaker 19: allowed us to set up the bullpen, allow us to have.
• 40:35
  Speaker 18: Pretty much a full bullpen today. They're just they're doing
• 40:38
  Speaker 18: a really good jobbers Dagos Digo Porti three or four
• 40:41
  Speaker 18: of the clay today.
• 40:42
  Speaker 8: What can you say about he was.
• 40:43
  Speaker 19: So far receives he's for a freshman, he's a really
• 40:47
  Speaker 19: really good player when he has a great approach. You know,
• 40:50
  Speaker 19: shot that single in the right center field gap and
• 40:52
  Speaker 19: then the guy hung the breaking ball, pulled it one
• 40:55
  Speaker 19: hundred and eight miles an hour on a day where
• 40:56
  Speaker 19: it's really tough to at a home run to the
• 40:58
  Speaker 19: left field. Super talented, and he controls the strike zone
• 41:02
  Speaker 19: and swings at the pitches he wants to swing at.
• 41:04
  Speaker 18: You know, he can. He can be as good as
• 41:05
  Speaker 18: any So he's you know, he's a good player. We
• 41:07
  Speaker 18: expect him to keep getting better.
• 41:08
  Speaker 21: And I thought he did a really nice job at
• 41:10
  Speaker 21: their base today as well.
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: We're gonna hear from Nico Partida and Nadan Simms when
• 41:15
  Speaker 4: we return. But yeah, you know, the kind of weekend
• 41:20
  Speaker 4: that you want to see from your pitching staff. Penn
• 41:23
  Speaker 4: comes in, they take advantage of you know, I thought
• 41:29
  Speaker 4: that I might see this. I talked about this at
• 41:31
  Speaker 4: the end of last week over on techs Hags. You know,
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: you showed that how the higher strike you were having
• 41:40
  Speaker 4: some trouble getting on top of that ball with A
• 41:42
  Speaker 4: and M. Corpus Christi Penn kind of came in took
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: advantage of it. You had an umpire that that's where
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: his strike zone was. The low pitch was not going
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: to be a strike. Its consistent, which is what you
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: want to see. But he also took the ball into
• 41:57
  Speaker 4: a range where A and M, you know, had had
• 42:00
  Speaker 4: some struggles. But you look on Sunday and they were
• 42:05
  Speaker 4: on top of that ball. The adjustments they needed to make.
• 42:09
  Speaker 4: It took two games, game and a half and they
• 42:12
  Speaker 4: were ready to go with it. And that was a
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: great adjustment and shows the new guys, Hey, we got
• 42:19
  Speaker 4: to get locked in. The coach is going to give
• 42:21
  Speaker 4: us the right game plan and they're going to give
• 42:23
  Speaker 4: us what we need to do to be successful in
• 42:25
  Speaker 4: a day when the wind's blowing in like it is.
• 42:28
  Speaker 4: Soon the wind will turn around. You'll get to play
• 42:32
  Speaker 4: in Arlington this weekend as well with no win. So
• 42:36
  Speaker 4: balls that were you know, Wilson crushed the ball this weekend.
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: We crushed the ball would have been over section twelve
• 42:45
  Speaker 4: lands into glove. Guys can't get upset about that. So
• 42:50
  Speaker 4: when we come back we will hear from Partida and
• 42:53
  Speaker 4: Nadan Simms seventeen strikeouts in thirteen innings. He's been tremendous.
• 42:58
  Speaker 4: But first let's see here from our great sponsor's Dent

  Speaker 24: Joint Chip Powered Evenings forty six on his own.
• 44:29
  Speaker 5: Pickles Chip Howard likes pickles.
• 44:33
  Speaker 4: I know what I liked. I like seeing Partita rake
• 44:36
  Speaker 4: like he did this weekend. He did have the air
• 44:39
  Speaker 4: that led to the unearned run in Game two, and
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: then New was solid defensively. Again, He's had one play
• 44:45
  Speaker 4: where a shortstop it's going to be a different bounce
• 44:48
  Speaker 4: in playing third base. I know what he's you know
• 44:53
  Speaker 4: that in between how it was on him, a high
• 44:56
  Speaker 4: bounce with a parallel to the ground on glove. He didn't,
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: you know, caught in between. The next play the ball
• 45:05
  Speaker 4: went to him, he played the ball and the ball
• 45:06
  Speaker 4: not playing the next time he had a chance to
• 45:10
  Speaker 4: make a play. So I really like how he played
• 45:12
  Speaker 4: this weekend. And let's see what he had to say
• 45:16
  Speaker 4: after a big Sunday getting the Aggies at seven to
• 45:18
  Speaker 4: one win.
• 45:20
  Speaker 14: Nego coach spoke yesterday about kind of what his message
• 45:23
  Speaker 14: was after the game last night. What was done as
• 45:26
  Speaker 14: a collective to allow you guys to find more offensive
• 45:29
  Speaker 14: success today.
• 45:30
  Speaker 22: I feel like we kind of just put our egos aside,
• 45:32
  Speaker 22: like kind of like he said, like we were looking up,
• 45:34
  Speaker 22: like see our stats really good, and we thought we
• 45:36
  Speaker 22: just need to do more than what we were doing.
• 45:38
  Speaker 22: So I feel like today we kind of settled down,
• 45:40
  Speaker 22: started working all sides of the field, you know, being aggressive,
• 45:43
  Speaker 22: also a little patient at the play and you know,
• 45:44
  Speaker 22: just finding a pitchion, no keeping it low.
• 45:47
  Speaker 14: After hearing a message like that, how does it feel
• 45:50
  Speaker 14: to come through and we'll kind of put that plan
• 45:52
  Speaker 14: into action and to succeed as an individual.
• 45:54
  Speaker 22: Today, it feels great knowing that on some games I've
• 45:58
  Speaker 22: gone through, like I was sitting it hard right at people.
• 46:00
  Speaker 22: Also other games that you know, I struggled with that.
• 46:02
  Speaker 22: You know that was kind of college baseball. But you know,
• 46:04
  Speaker 22: hearing a message like that kind of keeps you humbled
• 46:06
  Speaker 22: as well. And you know, I'm just grateful to you know,
• 46:09
  Speaker 22: have a coach that you know, even after a win
• 46:11
  Speaker 22: like it, wasn't great and we need to hear something
• 46:13
  Speaker 22: like that.
• 46:14
  Speaker 14: So go ahead, have your home run, Nico.
• 46:17
  Speaker 8: I guess what'd you see on that one?
• 46:18
  Speaker 22: And then as soon as I left the bat, did
• 46:20
  Speaker 22: you did you think it was gone?
• 46:21
  Speaker 8: Or what did you think?
• 46:22
  Speaker 25: Uh?
• 46:23
  Speaker 14: So?
• 46:23
  Speaker 22: I mean I was talking with Claunch at first base
• 46:25
  Speaker 22: on like letting balls get deep, you know, punching the
• 46:27
  Speaker 22: other side, and then you know, I saw a hanging,
• 46:30
  Speaker 22: breaking ball got up front.
• 46:31
  Speaker 18: But with win like this, you know, on a normal
• 46:34
  Speaker 18: day I would have known.
• 46:35
  Speaker 22: Right off the bat, but win like this, you know,
• 46:36
  Speaker 22: I kind of got the box, but you know, as
• 46:38
  Speaker 22: I saw leftfield to go back, I kind of knew it.
• 46:41
  Speaker 14: Just how difficult is it to get a ball out
• 46:43
  Speaker 14: of the ballpark on a day like this with the
• 46:45
  Speaker 14: wind blowing in the way it was?
• 46:46
  Speaker 22: Uh, you know, It's it's funny because we've had days
• 46:49
  Speaker 22: in practice where it's blowing just as hard as this,
• 46:51
  Speaker 22: and h Pennington always messes with me because I'll hit
• 46:54
  Speaker 22: hit the ball really hard to left that you know,
• 46:56
  Speaker 22: there's a homer on any other day and uh, leftfield
• 46:59
  Speaker 22: are coming in on the ball and you know it's
• 47:00
  Speaker 22: really hard, but he'll always mess with me. Just you know,
• 47:03
  Speaker 22: leftfield are coming in. You gotta get no juice, so
• 47:05
  Speaker 22: you know it's it's difficult.
• 47:06
  Speaker 8: You can three home runs already to start your college career.
• 47:09
  Speaker 14: Did you expect kind of start like this from yourself?
• 47:11
  Speaker 22: I expected just for my hard work to pay off.
• 47:15
  Speaker 22: You know, I've I've put a lot of hard work
• 47:18
  Speaker 22: after hours, you know, just extra time into this to
• 47:20
  Speaker 22: get to this point. So I expected success. I expected
• 47:24
  Speaker 22: failure because it's gonna come. But you know, I'm just
• 47:26
  Speaker 22: really excited how it's gone so far.
• 47:28
  Speaker 14: It was auld like to play defense behind Daden Simms today.
• 47:32
  Speaker 22: If if y'all can't tell right now he's a stud.
• 47:34
  Speaker 22: I mean he's shown us all offspring what he's done.
• 47:37
  Speaker 22: And you know, people tend to think that Sunday guys
• 47:40
  Speaker 22: are usually like the last option. He's nowhere near the
• 47:42
  Speaker 22: last option. So you know, knowing that soft contacts coming
• 47:45
  Speaker 22: my way, we can always make plays. We can rely
• 47:47
  Speaker 22: on hun to throw strikes. I mean, no walks by
• 47:50
  Speaker 22: any of the pitchers this weekend. That's been incredibly impressive.
• 47:53
  Speaker 22: So you know, just any of those guys coming out,
• 47:54
  Speaker 22: but especially.
• 47:56
  Speaker 14: I mean to that point right you faced him in
• 47:59
  Speaker 14: preseason and all that. Other guys are finding out. What
• 48:02
  Speaker 14: are they finding out about how it is to face
• 48:04
  Speaker 14: Aiden Simms.
• 48:05
  Speaker 22: They're finding out that he's gonna come at you with
• 48:07
  Speaker 22: strikes and you know that sweepers second to nine, like
• 48:09
  Speaker 22: he can locate it. He can locate all his pitches,
• 48:12
  Speaker 22: and you know, just kind of like what I say,
• 48:14
  Speaker 22: He's been extremely impressive and you know, me being in
• 48:16
  Speaker 22: the box has always been uncomfortable at bats against him.
• 48:18
  Speaker 22: He's always you know, dominated the strike zone. So I
• 48:21
  Speaker 22: feel like that's just what he's gonna bring.
• 48:22
  Speaker 14: How many hits do you have off of Sims as sweeper?
• 48:25
  Speaker 18: Uh?
• 48:26
  Speaker 22: My first I think I faced him three times maybe,
• 48:29
  Speaker 22: and my first at bat I got a hit off
• 48:31
  Speaker 22: a sweeper like a little thinking to left, and other
• 48:34
  Speaker 22: than that, he's got me out.
• 48:38
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 48:38
  Speaker 4: That's Partita talking about Aiden Sims. Sims seven innings, three hits,
• 48:44
  Speaker 4: one run, it was earned, no walkston strikeouts. Last week
• 48:47
  Speaker 4: he threw seven shutout innings and uh allowed Uh I
• 48:53
  Speaker 4: had seven strikeouts and only allowed one hit. He's been
• 48:56
  Speaker 4: tremendous And you're right when you've got the number three
• 49:00
  Speaker 4: started that could they could pitch any other day on
• 49:02
  Speaker 4: the weekend. It certainly sets you up for for good
• 49:05
  Speaker 4: weekends when Sunday matters and Simms's knows it. Sunday wins
• 49:12
  Speaker 4: matter and he is locked in right now, here's Aidan
• 49:15
  Speaker 4: Simms aiden.
• 49:17
  Speaker 8: Uh, I guess did you you're talking different for breakfast?
• 49:20
  Speaker 8: We're a lucky shirt just I guess.
• 49:22
  Speaker 13: Coming at the end of the day, do you think
• 49:23
  Speaker 13: you have all those career highs that you did?
• 49:26
  Speaker 12: Uh?
• 49:26
  Speaker 20: No, But I've been working really hard in the bullpen.
• 49:28
  Speaker 20: I mess some stuff around with my shapes on Thursday
• 49:31
  Speaker 20: and that really helped me out today.
• 49:32
  Speaker 14: So what allowed what allowed you to have more success
• 49:34
  Speaker 14: than you did a week ago?
• 49:36
  Speaker 7: Uh?
• 49:36
  Speaker 13: Just commanding the fastball way better. I didn't miss up.
• 49:38
  Speaker 20: I missed up a lot last week, and then the
• 49:40
  Speaker 20: sweeper shape got extremely better over the week.
• 49:43
  Speaker 13: I missed with some pitch grips on Thursday. It really
• 49:45
  Speaker 13: helped me out.
• 49:46
  Speaker 14: I'd you feel in the later and innings, especially in
• 49:48
  Speaker 14: the six.
• 49:49
  Speaker 20: I was getting a little tired, but I knew I
• 49:52
  Speaker 20: had to go out there for my team and grind
• 49:53
  Speaker 20: through something.
• 49:54
  Speaker 18: Bats.
• 49:54
  Speaker 13: I didn't have my best stuff late in the innings,
• 49:56
  Speaker 13: but I saw had to grind.
• 49:57
  Speaker 14: Did you know you were working on anything special there
• 49:59
  Speaker 14: into the SI sitting. Does anybody talking to you anything
• 50:01
  Speaker 14: like that?
• 50:02
  Speaker 20: Nobody really said anything, but I kind of had it
• 50:05
  Speaker 20: in the back of my mind, and then whenever we
• 50:06
  Speaker 20: go up that hit, I was like, so, what, let's
• 50:08
  Speaker 20: get the next guy.
• 50:09
  Speaker 14: This staff as a whole in issue a single walk
• 50:12
  Speaker 14: all week and what does it like to be part
• 50:13
  Speaker 14: of this pitching staff and what does it like to
• 50:14
  Speaker 14: accomplish something like that over twenty nine innings.
• 50:17
  Speaker 13: Yeah, it's awesome. That's what we preach. We've been in
• 50:20
  Speaker 13: the bullpen.
• 50:21
  Speaker 20: We have to call out a shape to location in
• 50:23
  Speaker 20: the cow so fastball middle, just to.
• 50:26
  Speaker 13: Get our minds on that pitch. And you can't throw
• 50:28
  Speaker 13: a bad pitch in this out.
• 50:30
  Speaker 10: The offense was obviously slow the last two days, but
• 50:32
  Speaker 10: it picked up today.
• 50:33
  Speaker 21: How rewarding is it as a pitcher to finally see
• 50:36
  Speaker 21: them come together?
• 50:37
  Speaker 20: Yeah, it's awesome. I mean it's not the easiest thing,
• 50:39
  Speaker 20: and we know that they're trying, but being able to
• 50:43
  Speaker 20: get some runs for us is huge.
• 50:46
  Speaker 14: What is his pitching staff as a whole capable of
• 50:48
  Speaker 14: after the success of this weekend?
• 50:50
  Speaker 13: Shoot, the sky's the limit.
• 50:51
  Speaker 4: That's all I gotta say, all right, the sky is
• 50:56
  Speaker 4: a limit when you're playing good baseball. The Aggies are
• 50:58
  Speaker 4: doing that. They take on Lamar tomorrow night. Lamar has
• 51:04
  Speaker 4: started the season. They're five and three. Last week on Tuesday,
• 51:09
  Speaker 4: they went over to Austin. They did get run rulled
• 51:11
  Speaker 4: fourteen to four. You know, they kind of got after
• 51:15
  Speaker 4: that pitching staff a little bit. Joshua Shimmin was the starter.
• 51:21
  Speaker 4: We'll see if he's just started this week, but you
• 51:24
  Speaker 4: know he gave up some runs. Actually, brain Flinch Fritcher
• 51:29
  Speaker 4: was their starters. They used one, two, three, four, five
• 51:32
  Speaker 4: six pitchers against the Longhorns and seven innings and two
• 51:37
  Speaker 4: undrod runs created that run rule there in the seventh.
• 51:41
  Speaker 4: So you know, Lamar will try to pick that back up.
• 51:45
  Speaker 4: This last weekend. They had better success when they were
• 51:48
  Speaker 4: playing UT Arlington. They won two out of three bounce
• 51:52
  Speaker 4: back from a game one loss to that series, won
• 51:55
  Speaker 4: five to four and ten innings, and then five to
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: three yesterday. So two game winning streak for the car
• 52:00
  Speaker 4: Ardinals as they come into town to take on the Aggis.
• 52:03
  Speaker 5: So I think that, you know.
• 52:06
  Speaker 4: Like I said, they were a team that two years
• 52:10
  Speaker 4: ago kind of got snubbed as far as going to
• 52:13
  Speaker 4: the NCAA tournament.
• 52:16
  Speaker 5: They beat the beat A and M. I think they
• 52:20
  Speaker 5: beat A and M. But some of them have kind
• 52:23
  Speaker 5: of rolled together.
• 52:25
  Speaker 4: You know, they didn't they didn't get into the tournament.
• 52:30
  Speaker 4: But last year they were the one seed and lost
• 52:34
  Speaker 4: twice at the Southland Tournament. So you know that's that's
• 52:38
  Speaker 4: kind of hung around on their heads a little bit
• 52:42
  Speaker 4: when you are snubbed in four, I mean not twenty
• 52:47
  Speaker 4: twenty four and you don't get in the tournament despite
• 52:51
  Speaker 4: having a forty four and fifteen record that year. In
• 52:55
  Speaker 4: the Southland Conference tournament, they you know, advanced to the
• 53:00
  Speaker 4: to the first to the semi finals, and you know
• 53:04
  Speaker 4: it was a tough year for them not to make it.
• 53:07
  Speaker 4: But you know they came back last year win the
• 53:10
  Speaker 4: regular season again.
• 53:13
  Speaker 5: Uh am run.
• 53:13
  Speaker 4: Ruled them two years ago. That was a that was
• 53:15
  Speaker 4: a really good win for the Aggies that year. So
• 53:19
  Speaker 4: you know, Lamar will show up and they will give
• 53:22
  Speaker 4: A and M everything they got. They they understand how
• 53:25
  Speaker 4: important this non conference game is. I would not be
• 53:29
  Speaker 4: surprised if Gavin Lyons did not pitch again Start again
• 53:32
  Speaker 4: started last Tuesday for A and M.
• 53:36
  Speaker 18: He was.
• 53:36
  Speaker 5: He was good.
• 53:38
  Speaker 4: And you know I've said all pre season, in the
• 53:42
  Speaker 4: start of this season, what the Aggies do on Tuesdays
• 53:46
  Speaker 4: is the season. You know, if you win five more
• 53:50
  Speaker 4: games last year than you did this year, you know
• 53:56
  Speaker 4: you have an opportunity to come up with that. With that,
• 54:01
  Speaker 4: you know, no matter what happens in the league play.
• 54:05
  Speaker 4: You know, even if A and M had still been
• 54:08
  Speaker 4: eleven and nineteen the finish going to the semi finals
• 54:13
  Speaker 4: getting jobbed by LSU on a bat on power call,
• 54:17
  Speaker 4: if you had been thirty five and twenty one, you're
• 54:21
  Speaker 4: making the tournament. No doubt, in my mind, even after
• 54:24
  Speaker 4: everything else that went on, you would have been a
• 54:27
  Speaker 4: tournament team. So you have to make these Tuesdays matter.
• 54:31
  Speaker 4: And that's why this game is just as important as
• 54:34
  Speaker 4: the three they played on the weekend. All Right, we'll
• 54:38
  Speaker 4: finish up at the top of the hour in just
• 54:40
