- 1:50Speaker 2: And starting tomorrow, ladies and gentlemen, the UFL season starts.
- 1:56Speaker 1: Let's get ready for some football.
- 1:58Speaker 4: And lost the rest.
- 1:59Speaker 3: Okay, come back please, We're gonna talk lots of college
- 2:03Speaker 3: basketball today.
- 2:04Speaker 2: I think it's mainly college basketball.
- 2:07Speaker 1: The mens.
- 2:08Speaker 4: Yeah, the next two weeks we'll talk. We'll update a
- 2:12Speaker 4: little bit.
- 2:13Speaker 1: Women.
- 2:14Speaker 3: Women, you want to start with that first? Actually, yeah,
- 2:16Speaker 3: let's talk. Let's talk. We'll talk women's real quick local fleava.
- 2:22Speaker 3: We've got Oklahoma's gonna play.
- 2:24Speaker 1: Uh the play tomorrow.
- 2:26Speaker 4: Yes, where are they at actually on that? There we go?
- 2:30Speaker 2: Yeah, they're on Saturday and they will be playing South Carolina,
- 2:33Speaker 2: which they have beat once this season.
- 2:35Speaker 3: South Carolina's got three losses on the season. Oklahoma's one
- 2:38Speaker 3: of them. They did it did take overtime at.
- 2:40Speaker 1: Home to you their second loss.
- 2:43Speaker 4: I think so.
- 2:44Speaker 2: Uh.
- 2:44Speaker 3: Now, South Carolina is favored by seventeen and a half
- 2:47Speaker 3: over under his one hundred and fifty three.
- 2:49Speaker 4: Does that seem high? No, you don't think so. I get.
- 2:54Speaker 3: I mean, I'm rooting for Oklahoma. You know, I'm Oklahoma fan.
- 2:56Speaker 3: Oklahoma needs about one more player. I think South Carolina
- 3:00Speaker 3: in the revenge is going to eat them at pretty good.
- 3:03Speaker 3: What was Oklahoma State? How did they finish up with?
- 3:07Speaker 1: Look? Yeah, they lost that game?
- 3:09Speaker 4: Oh okay, So.
- 3:11Speaker 2: The last time OEU in South Carolina that that win
- 3:16Speaker 2: that they.
- 3:16Speaker 4: Had, it was an overtime in the eighties.
- 3:19Speaker 1: It was eighty two, okay, and.
- 3:22Speaker 3: That's where they're going with that. Yeah, but that was
- 3:24Speaker 3: also overtime as well.
- 3:27Speaker 2: So we know that that's going to be a high
- 3:28Speaker 2: schooling affair for both those teams.
- 3:32Speaker 3: Yeah, so when Oklahoma State also made it and they
- 3:34Speaker 3: lost it, obviously they got the bad drawden and they
- 3:36Speaker 3: got UC number one UCLA, which, like I told you before,
- 3:40Speaker 3: and we talked about a little bit last week, if
- 3:42Speaker 3: it's not one two, one two, you know, I would
- 3:45Speaker 3: be super surprised in the final four, there is anybody,
- 3:47Speaker 3: anybody besides a two seed or war So.
- 3:52Speaker 2: The issue right now is we're seeing fours and threes
- 3:56Speaker 2: that are still in.
- 3:57Speaker 4: This women's that's but at sixteen, it's okay.
- 4:00Speaker 2: I know, I know we're not paying I know, but
- 4:03Speaker 2: we're not sitting into the lower seeds. Notre Dame is
- 4:06Speaker 2: the lowest seed at number six. They took out Ohio State.
- 4:11Speaker 4: And historically Notre Dame is very good at women's basketball.
- 4:14Speaker 2: Correct, So Friday at one thirty, Notre Dame women will
- 4:21Speaker 2: be playing the Vandy women.
- 4:22Speaker 3: And I forgot Vanderbilt women were that good. I really
- 4:24Speaker 3: haven't paid a lot of attention. Obviously, Yukon will play
- 4:27Speaker 3: North Carolina later after that they're undefeated.
- 4:30Speaker 1: Well, yeah, here's you know, Yukon's favorite twenty twenty seven.
- 4:33Speaker 4: And a half.
- 4:33Speaker 3: That's nuts and Another thing, Sean, you look at the
- 4:36Speaker 3: over under, it's only one hundred and thirty one points,
- 4:39Speaker 3: So that's let's just break it down.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Much.
- 4:44Speaker 3: Yeah, what they're gonna say essentially is they're gonna it's
- 4:49Speaker 3: gonna be eighty to fifty.
- 4:52Speaker 1: And uh, you know I was telling you earlier.
- 4:54Speaker 2: I was reading an interview by Syracuse women's head coach
- 4:57Speaker 2: and the school that she was at before. So apparently
- 5:00Speaker 2: in the last three of her four Sweet sixteens that
- 5:03Speaker 2: she's been to, she's had to face Yukon and she's
- 5:05Speaker 2: tired of it. She's tired of her school or where.
- 5:09Speaker 2: She thinks it's a vendetta against her to put her there.
- 5:14Speaker 2: She was like, I want to be somewhere else with
- 5:16Speaker 2: a better opportunity.
- 5:18Speaker 4: Buffalo. I think she was at Buffalo. Oh gotcha.
- 5:21Speaker 2: But yeah, they've had to play yukon three of her
- 5:24Speaker 2: last four Sweet sixteen meetings.
- 5:26Speaker 3: Well, and another thing we talked about keeping on the
- 5:28Speaker 3: women's basketball Alabama women's coach Christy Curry. She left Alabama
- 5:35Speaker 3: just recently with last week. She's been on the job
- 5:37Speaker 3: since twenty thirteen, record two hundred and forty five and
- 5:40Speaker 3: one hundred and seventy three, went to the NCAA Tournament
- 5:42Speaker 3: the past four years.
- 5:45Speaker 1: Yeah, they're not putting money into the women's.
- 5:47Speaker 4: And she took the job at USU SF not USC.
- 5:52Speaker 3: I almost said, yeah, we're talking to University of South Florida.
- 5:55Speaker 1: Actually, I kind of thought you were going to go
- 5:56Speaker 1: with UCF. No, they got money.
- 5:58Speaker 4: There too, SF.
- 6:00Speaker 3: So and and he's uh, Jose Hernandez.
- 6:05Speaker 4: He's actually that used to be there.
- 6:06Speaker 3: He left the Bulls in October just before the start
- 6:10Speaker 3: of the season, and he's going to the day he
- 6:12Speaker 3: went to the WNBA w NBA Dallas Dallas Wings former
- 6:17Speaker 3: texts at Tulsa.
- 6:18Speaker 2: When you I thought they're gonna say the Dandies, and
- 6:22Speaker 2: then a lady had took over Michelle Woods.
- 6:25Speaker 3: Baxter led UCF to a twenty and twelve program this
- 6:29Speaker 3: year is an intern. So I think that I think
- 6:32Speaker 3: that's a So what does that say about Alabama sports?
- 6:36Speaker 3: Or is that just more of a thing about women's basketball,
- 6:40Speaker 3: Because now you got to go back and look, last year,
- 6:42Speaker 3: Oklahoma got the number one recruit in the nation. Well,
- 6:45Speaker 3: and she signed with Oklahoma. Now, obviously she's just a freshman.
- 6:49Speaker 3: Is Oklahoma worried they're not gonna be able to keep her.
- 6:51Speaker 3: I've heard no rumors of that. I think brasnik Is
- 6:56Speaker 3: is a great Jennie brags Brasna brasnik Is.
- 7:00Speaker 4: A break out. I can't I always mispronounce her name
- 7:06Speaker 4: Branchick brand Is it Branchick?
- 7:08Speaker 1: I couldn't tell you anyway.
- 7:10Speaker 3: Jenny's a great coach, and I need to pay more
- 7:13Speaker 3: attention to her. How you pronounce her last name? But
- 7:16Speaker 3: she's built. Sherry had dropped that down a little bit.
- 7:19Speaker 3: Sherery was there for a long time. The program kind
- 7:21Speaker 3: of started to dip. Jenny comes in. I think she's
- 7:25Speaker 3: a Iowa girl, had coached at god, I can't remember
- 7:29Speaker 3: what school she came from in Iowa. And you know,
- 7:33Speaker 3: there was rumors when Iowa's coach was leaving and they
- 7:35Speaker 3: hired within obviously, but there was rumors she might go back. No,
- 7:39Speaker 3: I think she's She's great for Oklahoma and.
- 7:44Speaker 4: They need to continue to build.
- 7:46Speaker 3: I don't foresee them beating South Carolina simply for the
- 7:48Speaker 3: revenge factor, I'm afraid. But if they do beat South Carolina,
- 7:53Speaker 3: you talk about that, that is going to be a
- 7:57Speaker 3: huge They've already beat him once I get it, but
- 7:59Speaker 3: the upset look at the spread.
- 8:01Speaker 4: Vegas knows things.
- 8:03Speaker 3: Just like we talked about Sean Connecticut twenty seven and
- 8:05Speaker 3: a half point favorite.
- 8:06Speaker 2: Yes, Connecticut of course still favored to win thirty six
- 8:10Speaker 2: and oh record on the season itself. So that's all
- 8:14Speaker 2: going to be followed by Minnesota UCLA, which Minnefoota, MINNFODA
- 8:18Speaker 2: Minoa Minnefota is a four seed coming into this with
- 8:22Speaker 2: the number one UCLA who only lost one game during
- 8:24Speaker 2: the season. I would say the most interesting game of
- 8:29Speaker 2: Friday night will be number three Duke versus number two LSU.
- 8:34Speaker 3: Yeah, in LSU, obviously Kim Molk's Pointeah eight and a
- 8:38Speaker 3: half point favorites too.
- 8:39Speaker 4: What that's telling you there there is it's going to
- 8:42Speaker 4: be the same. I mean, you're looking, do.
- 8:45Speaker 2: You think Kim Malky's struggling to get the players in
- 8:51Speaker 2: LSU because of the nil.
- 8:53Speaker 4: And well, wouldn't you think?
- 8:55Speaker 2: I'm and and you know that the fact that there's
- 8:59Speaker 2: so many front loaded teams that all these girls want
- 9:02Speaker 2: to go to, like UCLA, they want to go.
- 9:04Speaker 1: To South Carolina.
- 9:05Speaker 2: I think I've heard that government South Carolina's coach is amazing.
- 9:08Speaker 3: Yeah, but wouldn't you think, though, that Kim has got
- 9:13Speaker 3: a top ten program? I mean, right, yeah, So, I
- 9:16Speaker 3: mean I don't think she's losing anybody. She's a little
- 9:18Speaker 3: bit brass.
- 9:19Speaker 4: I just don't.
- 9:19Speaker 2: But I don't think that she's getting the players that
- 9:23Speaker 2: she she used to that she was getting.
- 9:26Speaker 4: Oh, I wouldn't say that, but.
- 9:29Speaker 2: The multi the better players, because the better players, even
- 9:31Speaker 2: Iowa girls, you know, they're still.
- 9:33Speaker 4: Tough to play.
- 9:34Speaker 3: They are, and she's held on to that, and I'm
- 9:37Speaker 3: and I'm happy for them. Did they make the Sweet sixteen,
- 9:39Speaker 3: which is the Saturday excip.
- 9:41Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna jump over here. Sorry, guys, we are
- 9:43Speaker 2: in a hurry.
- 9:45Speaker 4: Because never never a hurry.
- 9:50Speaker 1: Saturday's starting game is Louisville, Michigan.
- 9:54Speaker 2: Number three seed versus number two seeds should be a
- 9:57Speaker 2: better game. Then you end up at the two po
- 10:00Speaker 2: with Kentucky versus at number five, which seems to be
- 10:02Speaker 2: the lowest anu.
- 10:03Speaker 3: I love watching Louisville's coach, that blonde lady. She will
- 10:07Speaker 3: go to town on those players and getting their ass.
- 10:09Speaker 4: It is. It is great. It is freaking great.
- 10:12Speaker 3: Texas they're also one vict since he's been there, came
- 10:17Speaker 3: over he's really turned that program around thirty three and
- 10:23Speaker 3: three this year. Like I said, I wouldn't be surprised
- 10:25Speaker 3: if it I if it's not all one seeds in
- 10:28Speaker 3: the final four, and you'll never see that with men generally.
- 10:33Speaker 4: When was the last time do you remember that that happened?
- 10:35Speaker 4: For what men? All one seeds made the final four?
- 10:40Speaker 1: Wasn't it last year? Oh?
- 10:43Speaker 2: No, God, no, no, because I think Florida was a
- 10:46Speaker 2: thrill killer in that.
- 10:49Speaker 4: No, they won it.
- 10:52Speaker 3: Oh shit, you're right it was last year. Look at
- 10:54Speaker 3: you go Auburn, Duke, Florida and Houston.
- 10:55Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I thought.
- 10:56Speaker 3: Wow, I was thinking the year before when they had
- 10:59Speaker 3: the nobody saying Diego State.
- 11:03Speaker 1: Yes, yes, all those weird small teams just jumped in.
- 11:06Speaker 1: They were paying.
- 11:08Speaker 3: The other one was Kansas, Memphis, North Carolina u C
- 11:12Speaker 3: l A two thousand and eight.
- 11:15Speaker 4: And see, And that's what's funny, is you kind of.
- 11:17Speaker 3: You really forget who who wins it or who's who's
- 11:22Speaker 3: runner up? You know, I mean Florida won last year.
- 11:27Speaker 4: Who was a runner up? No, they wasn't even in it.
- 11:32Speaker 4: I don't remember.
- 11:34Speaker 1: I don't know Albert or Duke. It was Duke.
- 11:36Speaker 3: Maybe I don't know, but then that's crazy, and never
- 11:40Speaker 3: think you just don't.
- 11:41Speaker 4: You don't remember. The only one that anybody ever gets
- 11:43Speaker 4: talked about is eighty eight.
- 11:44Speaker 3: Everyone remembers the runner up there because they were by
- 11:47Speaker 3: far the better team.
- 11:48Speaker 1: Lookie Blaylock still my favorite player.
- 11:51Speaker 2: And so then after the two o'clock game, Oklahoma will
- 11:53Speaker 2: be playing at four o'clock against South Carolina and as
- 11:56Speaker 2: Kenny said, seventeen and a half point with a very
- 11:58Speaker 2: high I believe they have the highest.
- 12:03Speaker 1: Total for points in the and it is a four
- 12:09Speaker 1: versus one. Oh never mind, I forgot the Virginia. Virginia
- 12:13Speaker 1: women are number ten. They are on a tear.
- 12:15Speaker 2: Yeah, there there, darlings of the women's tournament. I need
- 12:20Speaker 2: to miss me. I had misspoken, and I had forgotten Virginia.
- 12:25Speaker 2: I thought Notre Dame was the lowest seed that made
- 12:27Speaker 2: it in. I forgot the lady Cavaliers were. We're tearing
- 12:33Speaker 2: it up. And you're pretty good for that program too,
- 12:36Speaker 2: oh for sure.
- 12:37Speaker 1: Every time.
- 12:38Speaker 2: Yeah, and you gotta understand, every time somebody makes it
- 12:40Speaker 2: to a sweet sixteen, that program lose as a coach
- 12:43Speaker 2: or they get a huge bump I know, making it
- 12:46Speaker 2: to a Leite eight and final four and title game
- 12:50Speaker 2: are even better. But the Sweet sixteen for some reason,
- 12:54Speaker 2: has this mystique about it. It's the halfway point and
- 12:59Speaker 2: it is where all these Cinderella teams either make or break.
- 13:07Speaker 4: No, totally agree.
- 13:08Speaker 1: So that's your women's run down. Sorry it's so short.
- 13:12Speaker 4: Uh all right, let's moving on real quick.
- 13:14Speaker 3: Tulsa, Tulsa Golden Hurricane. They've made the final four of
- 13:20Speaker 3: the n which you know, I almost posted congratulations heading
- 13:25Speaker 3: in New York.
- 13:25Speaker 4: They don't do that anymore. They're going to.
- 13:27Speaker 3: Indianapolis, obviously, and I'm trying to see who they got
- 13:33Speaker 3: matched up with.
- 13:34Speaker 2: I never saw who they were matched up against. I
- 13:36Speaker 2: never got to see that other team.
- 13:38Speaker 3: Here we go, Well, it was New Mexico and then
- 13:41Speaker 3: Auburn played I think it's.
- 13:42Speaker 1: New Mexico that they're playing. Yeah, you like all the
- 13:45Speaker 1: pomp shit.
- 13:47Speaker 3: All right, Here we go, going to hinkle Field House Thursday,
- 13:53Speaker 3: April second, number one New Mexico versus number one Tulsa.
- 13:58Speaker 3: And then if that's it's seven. The game after that,
- 14:01Speaker 3: Auburn Illinois State.
- 14:04Speaker 4: Look at Illinois State getting in there. Good for them.
- 14:06Speaker 3: They beat Dayton obviously, and there you go. Wow, I
- 14:14Speaker 3: you know, I'm proud of Tulsa.
- 14:16Speaker 1: Oh no, I'm very proud of Tulsa. I just said
- 14:20Speaker 1: that the way that you presented it.
- 14:21Speaker 3: You know, now you look back at you know, they
- 14:23Speaker 3: started out strong at twitch Doll State and beat them.
- 14:25Speaker 3: After the after they lost, you realized it. State beat
- 14:31Speaker 3: Oklahoma State by twenty six. I forgot how that.
- 14:34Speaker 2: And you have to remember whenever the I said, I
- 14:39Speaker 2: hate saying that. So whenever whenever the American Basketball Championship
- 14:48Speaker 2: was going on the tournament, Tulsa was coming off a
- 14:53Speaker 2: triple overtime of North Texas and that really you can
- 15:00Speaker 2: tell it had a factor.
- 15:01Speaker 1: And whenever they played Witchital State, Oh, we talked about that.
- 15:04Speaker 4: Yes, three overtimes, Yeah.
- 15:06Speaker 2: Three overtimes. For some reason, I was in Oklahoma City
- 15:09Speaker 2: watching it. I mean we knew in Busters, shout out
- 15:16Speaker 2: David Busters. Food's too expensive.
- 15:20Speaker 1: Where do you make it? It's okay, where do you
- 15:21Speaker 1: make your money?
- 15:23Speaker 4: In the games. It's all in the games.
- 15:26Speaker 1: I gotta take you down there. We need to go
- 15:27Speaker 1: to a David.
- 15:28Speaker 4: Buss I've been. I've been to the one in Tulsa. No,
- 15:30Speaker 4: we need to go.
- 15:30Speaker 1: They've got some new stuff. It's okay, we got some
- 15:33Speaker 1: new stuff there.
- 15:34Speaker 3: It's okay, all right, let's get to it. We got
- 15:36Speaker 3: twenty minutes to give you the best run there.
- 15:39Speaker 4: The child that just came out there to give you
- 15:41Speaker 4: the best rundown of what end of the Men.
- 15:48Speaker 3: By the stove stove, best rundown of the Sweet sixteen,
- 15:53Speaker 3: you're gonna get anywhere.
- 15:54Speaker 4: Folks just think he doesn't know what a stove is.
- 15:58Speaker 3: Yeah, he just has to get all every time, every time.
- 16:01Speaker 3: Now he's a media wants to be a media giant.
- 16:05Speaker 4: Okay, here we go. Which one let's do. Let's do
- 16:08Speaker 4: tonight's games.
- 16:09Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely, we got.
- 16:12Speaker 3: Starting off Texas eleven seed versus number two p Due. Obviously,
- 16:16Speaker 3: spread's gonna be around eight and a half. Depends on
- 16:18Speaker 3: where you look. We're looking right now. This is off
- 16:21Speaker 3: ESPN obviously, well, no one. The thing you want to
- 16:27Speaker 3: talk about as far as Vakia Snatus the center and
- 16:30Speaker 3: I don't know, I'm sure I butchered his name is
- 16:32Speaker 3: the center for Texas. I think he's going to be
- 16:34Speaker 3: the decider in this game. And then also can produce
- 16:38Speaker 3: shoot threes, produce one of the better three point shooters.
- 16:41Speaker 3: So far in the tournament, they're twenty two for thirty
- 16:43Speaker 3: eight three point shooting Texas eight and a half. Like
- 16:45Speaker 3: I said, eight and a half point dog. Could they
- 16:49Speaker 3: be the third team from the playing games to make
- 16:55Speaker 3: it to the Elite eight? The other two teams VCU,
- 16:58Speaker 3: UCLA have made it for play in and both of
- 17:01Speaker 3: them made the final four.
- 17:03Speaker 2: Obviously, do you notice do you notice what these playing
- 17:06Speaker 2: the teams that make it from the play in? They
- 17:08Speaker 2: are actually big programs.
- 17:11Speaker 4: They are.
- 17:11Speaker 3: And if they can get paste, no, if they if
- 17:15Speaker 3: they can get past that first week, it's fair.
- 17:17Speaker 1: Right, So it's it's not one of those that, oh
- 17:24Speaker 1: they're they're they're darling.
- 17:26Speaker 2: Now, these these are basketball schools that end up at
- 17:28Speaker 2: a play in, and yes they do have the ability
- 17:31Speaker 2: to beat the number six team that they go against
- 17:35Speaker 2: for the elevens, oh for sure. Now the sixteens, they're
- 17:39Speaker 2: the ones that get hosed because they end up in
- 17:41Speaker 2: a playing game against Florida or what was the other one.
- 17:44Speaker 4: Whatever, it's was it Howard.
- 17:48Speaker 2: Michigan they had Sienah, Yeah, it was Howard. It was Michigan.
- 17:53Speaker 2: Michigan got Michigan got Howard and Florida got Prayer View,
- 17:56Speaker 2: A and M which I'm sorry, but very good schools,
- 18:01Speaker 2: just not big basketball schools like Texas VCU. Sure, and
- 18:07Speaker 2: who'd you say the other one was LA. We know
- 18:11Speaker 2: UCLA's history.
- 18:15Speaker 4: And real quick, we'll get to coaching. I want to
- 18:17Speaker 4: bring it to Carolina.
- 18:19Speaker 3: But anyway, so Purdue Texas, it's really gonna come down
- 18:24Speaker 3: to a couple of things. How's produced shoot the ball?
- 18:27Speaker 3: And how's the big guy in the middle, who's roughly
- 18:29Speaker 3: he's already got twenty eight three free throws?
- 18:32Speaker 4: Do they give it to him? They're gonna have to
- 18:33Speaker 4: feed him in the middle.
- 18:35Speaker 3: If Produce struggles with the defense there, Texas could upset
- 18:39Speaker 3: Produce produced quietly the best two seed going into any
- 18:44Speaker 3: Sweet team.
- 18:46Speaker 4: Nobody's talking about then.
- 18:47Speaker 3: And they've got three guys that started two years ago
- 18:49Speaker 3: from the national.
- 18:50Speaker 2: Champions right because I'm saying you remember they just won
- 18:53Speaker 2: a national title. They've been a very dominant team in
- 18:57Speaker 2: college basketball in recent years.
- 18:59Speaker 1: Great coach. It's it's strange that it's only an eight and.
- 19:04Speaker 4: A half point spread and they didn't win the title.
- 19:07Speaker 4: They were running up.
- 19:08Speaker 1: That's where they got beat by Duke I.
- 19:11Speaker 4: Can't remember. Probably Zach Eatie big dude Ye was.
- 19:14Speaker 1: In the middle, and I forgot where he ended up
- 19:16Speaker 1: going Memphis, I.
- 19:17Speaker 3: Believe, I don't know if he's still there, but he
- 19:19Speaker 3: did get drafted by Memphis, so I'm.
- 19:22Speaker 1: Not really shoe sure who's in Memphis.
- 19:25Speaker 4: Good time.
- 19:27Speaker 2: We know one guy's still in Memphis, and I know
- 19:29Speaker 2: they're trying to offload him.
- 19:31Speaker 3: No, but I think, I really think that Purdue quietly.
- 19:35Speaker 3: Who will they play after that? Sean Due he either
- 19:37Speaker 3: has to go against Arizona or Arkansas. Yeah, it'sund a
- 19:40Speaker 3: good matchup, but that'd be one and two. And it's
- 19:44Speaker 3: funny how that, you know, last year we talked about
- 19:45Speaker 3: that it was chalk. I didn't realize it was one
- 19:48Speaker 3: one one one. I knew most of the.
- 19:50Speaker 4: Favorites were up there, but I didn't realize it was that.
- 19:53Speaker 1: Just counted me.
- 19:54Speaker 4: I did not discount you. I just was surprised. Counted me, surprised.
- 19:57Speaker 4: How do I get out of this?
- 19:59Speaker 1: What are you?
- 20:06Speaker 4: Thank you?
- 20:06Speaker 1: Computer?
- 20:07Speaker 4: Pro appreciate that.
- 20:09Speaker 1: All right, I've got my fingers in many things.
- 20:13Speaker 4: It's nothing good. Sorry.
- 20:16Speaker 3: In the defense, I mean produce defense is top notch,
- 20:19Speaker 3: and you're gonna have Texas. Sean Miller love coaching. When
- 20:22Speaker 3: he took that job and got hired, I was like, crap,
- 20:24Speaker 3: that is not good for Oklahoma and the other because
- 20:28Speaker 3: he's a great He is just a he was a
- 20:30Speaker 3: great coach.
- 20:31Speaker 2: He did make bad decisions along with some other coaches
- 20:35Speaker 2: when he was at Arizona.
- 20:37Speaker 4: How ironic how all those coaches are coming back.
- 20:40Speaker 1: Well yeah, we'llknok about that.
- 20:43Speaker 4: Soon and all their bad decisions, you know, all right?
- 20:47Speaker 3: Next up game after that? I like purduing this one.
- 20:50Speaker 3: What do you got?
- 20:51Speaker 4: Okay? Next after that?
- 20:53Speaker 3: Iowa Nebraska a tale of wow. I mean, I will
- 20:58Speaker 3: obviously upset number one.
- 20:59Speaker 4: See Florida.
- 21:01Speaker 3: Last weekend you got Nebraska and oklahoma'sit who took over
- 21:04Speaker 3: Oklahoma City.
- 21:05Speaker 4: I mean, the fans.
- 21:05Speaker 3: Wherever we were just jumping in the river walk and
- 21:08Speaker 3: it's their first two wins.
- 21:11Speaker 1: First think about this.
- 21:12Speaker 2: This is the very first two wins of the entirety
- 21:16Speaker 2: of the basketball.
- 21:17Speaker 3: Tournament and they got to do it in Oklahoma City.
- 21:19Speaker 3: I mean, the pictures of them jumping in the canal
- 21:21Speaker 3: was great. Beer trucks were parked, well they you know,
- 21:24Speaker 3: they just cleaned it out. Actually, so uh No, then
- 21:29Speaker 3: bicycles and everything else, but beer trucks were parked in
- 21:32Speaker 3: the alleys just ready. They were locked and loaded, ready
- 21:35Speaker 3: to go because they had won. If you think about it,
- 21:38Speaker 3: they'd won Thursday.
- 21:39Speaker 1: Night because if you've ever been to Nebraska, all you
- 21:41Speaker 1: do is drink.
- 21:42Speaker 4: They won Thursday night.
- 21:44Speaker 3: So they have Friday off and then they don't played
- 21:46Speaker 3: on Saturday evening and it's like it's it's drink city.
- 21:51Speaker 4: So no, I thought that was a great storyline.
- 21:53Speaker 3: I need to look at statistics on what regional had
- 21:56Speaker 3: the best UH numbers, because I would almost bet Oklahoma
- 22:00Speaker 3: did all right. Following up with those two dandies, I like,
- 22:07Speaker 3: I don't know this, it's going to be.
- 22:10Speaker 4: It's gonna be a low scoring game.
- 22:11Speaker 3: They both split during the reg during the regular season,
- 22:15Speaker 3: so and they both.
- 22:16Speaker 2: Want to hot, right, and you're they're they're both playing
- 22:20Speaker 2: down in Houston.
- 22:22Speaker 4: So okay, we're locking a door. Go okay, let's start
- 22:30Speaker 4: locking that door.
- 22:31Speaker 1: Chain it, Chaine it, do you have a creak for him?
- 22:35Speaker 3: It's gonna be a low scoring game. Obviously, the over
- 22:37Speaker 3: unders one hundred and thirty one, which I think is high.
- 22:39Speaker 3: I would still take the under on that teams it
- 22:42Speaker 3: is and it's very slow paced teams.
- 22:45Speaker 4: Fifty seven fifty two.
- 22:46Speaker 3: You know it was the first was the first score,
- 22:49Speaker 3: hold on and then it was eighty four seconds.
- 22:51Speaker 1: You know what's crazy.
- 22:52Speaker 2: About Iowa Nebraska their their basketball teams through their history.
- 22:59Speaker 1: Very defense, has defensive heavy and always slow and low scoring.
- 23:05Speaker 2: Sure, I don't ever remember talking about a fast Nebraska
- 23:08Speaker 2: team or a fast Iowa team.
- 23:10Speaker 3: I don't think Iowa does anything fast in Iowa, not
- 23:13Speaker 3: even their football team.
- 23:15Speaker 1: The women they're women's team. They do a lot of
- 23:18Speaker 1: stuff fast. They're very fast. I mean they scored well
- 23:20Speaker 1: even without Caitlin. I mean they still they still did
- 23:23Speaker 1: very well.
- 23:24Speaker 3: But all right, games after that Arkansas to pick who,
- 23:28Speaker 3: I'm gonna take Iowa.
- 23:30Speaker 4: Now that game's in Houston, by the way, and I'm.
- 23:32Speaker 1: Taking Iowa because of their tenacity and their and their
- 23:38Speaker 1: ability to stick around.
- 23:39Speaker 4: I like Nebraska to continue their crazy run.
- 23:41Speaker 1: Well it would be great as they did, but because.
- 23:44Speaker 3: They would end up matching up with who Illinois Houston? Okay, well,
- 23:49Speaker 3: but anyway, all right, Nebraska, that would I look for
- 23:52Speaker 3: them to continue that and the travel for both is
- 23:56Speaker 3: fairly close. You're gonna have a lot of fans for both,
- 23:58Speaker 3: So I think that's great. That's gonna be your six
- 24:00Speaker 3: point thirty kickoff TVs or True TV. All right, then
- 24:03Speaker 3: we move on to the later game of the night.
- 24:06Speaker 3: CBS has got Arizona Arkansas four seed, Arkansas twenty eight
- 24:11Speaker 3: and eight. Arizona's thirty four to two. Now they're playing
- 24:14Speaker 3: in San Jose, obviously closer for the Arizona people.
- 24:17Speaker 4: Arizona's favored by seven and a half.
- 24:19Speaker 2: The one factor for Arkansas is there's only two guys
- 24:24Speaker 2: that they really talk about on that Arkansas team, and
- 24:27Speaker 2: A Cuff is the main guy.
- 24:28Speaker 3: Well, that guy in the last six games averaged over
- 24:31Speaker 3: almost thirty points a game. He's got his draft stock
- 24:34Speaker 3: into the top five. I think, and and I think
- 24:37Speaker 3: everybody's talking about these top three.
- 24:39Speaker 4: I like Boozer number one.
- 24:40Speaker 3: We'll get into draft talk way down the road, which
- 24:42Speaker 3: I think Boozer should be the number one pick.
- 24:45Speaker 4: However, you know they've got the kid from BYU. You
- 24:48Speaker 4: just lost three people and the guy from What do
- 24:51Speaker 4: you mean.
- 24:52Speaker 1: I'm talking about NBA draft?
- 24:53Speaker 4: No, I'm just saying we're talking about college. Those are
- 24:55Speaker 4: the players right now.
- 24:56Speaker 3: No, no, no, I got that, but then you mention, but
- 24:58Speaker 3: then you got acf and then you're like, Okay, this
- 25:00Speaker 3: guy is continuing to move himself.
- 25:03Speaker 4: Shots he takes as unbelievable. I forgot who is two
- 25:07Speaker 4: he got?
- 25:07Speaker 1: He got into who's the who's.
- 25:09Speaker 2: The leading three point shooter in n C double A.
- 25:13Speaker 2: He's like, he wasn't fifty one, but I forgot where
- 25:16Speaker 2: he goes to school.
- 25:16Speaker 1: He wasn't fifty one.
- 25:17Speaker 4: He's in the final four and he was.
- 25:20Speaker 2: He was in fifty one percent or fifty six percent.
- 25:23Speaker 2: Keep talking about this and then I think he ended
- 25:26Speaker 2: this season or yeah. He's like, no, he's forty forty nine.
- 25:30Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying, right right, I mean right below fifties.
- 25:34Speaker 2: Uh, but I know Acuff's right there behind with his
- 25:37Speaker 2: shooting percentage is correct, And like.
- 25:39Speaker 1: I forgot who the other guy was. No, he's in the.
- 25:41Speaker 4: Final four, is dang it? Not freaking Iowa State Milan.
- 25:52Speaker 3: Yeah, I was mama civilic, Mama civilic.
- 25:56Speaker 1: Yeah kid, no, no, come.
- 25:58Speaker 4: Out, just the NBA. I don't care about that. But
- 26:04Speaker 4: we'll talk about him.
- 26:05Speaker 2: I think Arizona wins. I'm not going to say that
- 26:08Speaker 2: they're going to blow him out. But you look at
- 26:09Speaker 2: the over under or the point total is one sixty
- 26:12Speaker 2: five and a half.
- 26:13Speaker 1: They definitely look at this as a defensive list basketball game.
- 26:19Speaker 4: Oh I think so too. I mean I think both
- 26:20Speaker 4: of them.
- 26:21Speaker 3: You look at acuff you got and then but you
- 26:23Speaker 3: know Arizona's number three in the defensive rating overall. I
- 26:27Speaker 3: mean you take all the statistics in there, Arizona or
- 26:30Speaker 3: Arkansas struggles at times to shoot the ball. Well, if
- 26:33Speaker 3: a cuf's not on, the other people's got to step up.
- 26:35Speaker 3: You've got to have some of those other the other guard,
- 26:38Speaker 3: and you've got to have some interior, and you've got
- 26:40Speaker 3: to play good defense. I got Arizona winning this one.
- 26:43Speaker 3: I think Arizona is a really good team because I
- 26:45Speaker 3: like their guard play. Both of them play very their young,
- 26:47Speaker 3: very stay close.
- 26:49Speaker 4: I don't think so. I think Arizona pulls away. I
- 26:51Speaker 4: think Arizona at the very end, at the very end,
- 26:54Speaker 4: I would take the over. I would not be over.
- 26:56Speaker 4: I would take Arizona with the point.
- 26:58Speaker 2: But I want to say that it's close until the
- 27:01Speaker 2: early fourth.
- 27:03Speaker 3: But secretly I'm rooting for Arkansas just because I can't
- 27:05Speaker 3: stay in Kentucky.
- 27:08Speaker 4: And it just eats them alive that Arkansas is still alive.
- 27:10Speaker 1: Oh oh, absolutely, absolutely, all.
- 27:13Speaker 3: Right, here's the big game, here's the big game of
- 27:16Speaker 3: the night. This is the best game. Illinois twenty six
- 27:20Speaker 3: and eight, Houston thirty and six. Now, we talked about
- 27:23Speaker 3: Houston being at home, and I think you've got a clip.
- 27:25Speaker 4: We're gonna play real quick about that.
- 27:28Speaker 3: But you've got to Keaton Wagler and Keiston is it Flemings?
- 27:34Speaker 4: God, what is that kid's name? I knew I would
- 27:36Speaker 4: butcher his name.
- 27:39Speaker 3: Anyway, The two freshmen from Houston or one from Houston
- 27:43Speaker 3: one from Illinois, those are the kids that's gonna shine tonight,
- 27:47Speaker 3: shine night like a damon. It's an offense offensi efficiency
- 27:51Speaker 3: for Illinois. They're going to be one of the better
- 27:53Speaker 3: teams offensively, obviously, Houston always strict on the defense. Yeah,
- 28:00Speaker 3: Kingston Flemings, he's the freshman, and then you've got Keaton
- 28:03Speaker 3: Wagler the other freshman on the other side. And those
- 28:06Speaker 3: guys are top ten picks hands down. Houston's a little
- 28:12Speaker 3: older on that side except him. Shows you that those
- 28:16Speaker 3: kids have played themselves into a top ten I like
- 28:19Speaker 3: them both watching them, they're excellent you got two of
- 28:22Speaker 3: the best coaches.
- 28:22Speaker 4: Brad Underwood's very underrated.
- 28:25Speaker 3: Illinois's not always been the cream of the crop, but
- 28:28Speaker 3: he's ever since he came from Oklahoma State there, he's
- 28:31Speaker 3: been legit, just like when Bill self was there. Obviously, Kelvin,
- 28:35Speaker 3: I'm rooting for him. I like Houston this one. I've
- 28:37Speaker 3: got Houston winning at all my picks.
- 28:38Speaker 2: It's a very odd continued love for Kelvin said, we do,
- 28:41Speaker 2: we do.
- 28:42Speaker 1: I don't believe that he should have ever been fired
- 28:44Speaker 1: at that.
- 28:44Speaker 4: He didn't get fired at Oh he left.
- 28:46Speaker 1: Oh.
- 28:46Speaker 2: I thought he got fired at Indiana. Oh oh, that's right.
- 28:50Speaker 2: He took the Indiana job the better money. Calling people
- 28:53Speaker 2: too much, well too early, I.
- 28:56Speaker 4: Think, No, it's a shit you do now all the time.
- 28:58Speaker 4: Well now you can, yeah, exactly, No, you can. Houston
- 29:03Speaker 4: and that one, that one, is that what you got? Yeah, okay,
- 29:07Speaker 4: all right, we'll move on good. But I'm very close.
- 29:10Speaker 1: I'm gonna say that that's gonna come down to the end.
- 29:12Speaker 3: But I like the home court advantage. I like Houston
- 29:15Speaker 3: covering as well. I like Purdue to cover. I like
- 29:18Speaker 3: all the favorites to cover in that one. All right,
- 29:21Speaker 3: Friday's games. This is my upset special. I love Saint
- 29:25Speaker 3: John's in this game. Now they're in DC, not that
- 29:29Speaker 3: far for Saint John's fans in New York obviously technically
- 29:34Speaker 3: not that far. Fit No, and you're you're right, six
- 29:37Speaker 3: and a half, six and a half point favorites. Seventy
- 29:40Speaker 3: three year old my man, my man Patino. John Shire
- 29:45Speaker 3: has done a hell of a job covering or taking
- 29:48Speaker 3: over for It's hard to do that thirty eight year
- 29:52Speaker 3: old guy. He's done well thirty four and two. They
- 29:54Speaker 3: did lose one of their one of their their guards.
- 29:56Speaker 3: But I like Saint John's in this one, I really do.
- 29:59Speaker 3: I just think something about that team a little.
- 30:01Speaker 2: Let's not forget that Shire is the second coach in waiting.
- 30:06Speaker 2: Remember Shire didn't take over Forefki, it was the other guy. Huh,
- 30:10Speaker 2: there was another coach in between them, between him and Sheppe.
- 30:14Speaker 1: She said like, hey, look it up. I looked it
- 30:16Speaker 1: up the other day because I was wondering off Shire
- 30:19Speaker 1: was why you opened a new window open Ladies and gentlemen.
- 30:25Speaker 1: Watching him use technology is amazing.
- 30:28Speaker 2: Yeah, Shire, because the guy that he turned it over
- 30:33Speaker 2: to ended up getting let go.
- 30:36Speaker 1: What Yes?
- 30:42Speaker 5: Uh?
- 30:42Speaker 2: This is a very, very, very good matchup. I don't
- 30:45Speaker 2: know why I said very eight hundred times number five.
- 30:48Speaker 2: Saint John's coming in with a very seasoned coach and
- 30:52Speaker 2: a team that is.
- 30:55Speaker 3: Mike Kozhski nineteen eighty to twenty two and John Shire
- 31:00Speaker 3: to to present. I know what you're talking about. I
- 31:02Speaker 3: don't know what you're talking about. There is nobody else.
- 31:05Speaker 1: I could have swore there was a guy in between
- 31:07Speaker 1: him because I looked this up the other day.
- 31:08Speaker 4: Now, mm hmmmm.
- 31:11Speaker 3: You thinking of a whole different school dude, Sean gets
- 31:14Speaker 3: names in schools.
- 31:15Speaker 4: Next up.
- 31:16Speaker 1: No, I swear to God because I looked it up.
- 31:18Speaker 4: Well, your sources are crap.
- 31:22Speaker 2: Because I was wondering because I was wondering if he
- 31:24Speaker 2: was the guy that they turned it over to.
- 31:27Speaker 1: Onn't you start talking the donkey.
- 31:29Speaker 4: I know. I'm just saying you're still talking about I
- 31:31Speaker 4: thought it was.
- 31:32Speaker 3: The facts are there John Charp.
- 31:34Speaker 4: He took over for it, right, so I know. But
- 31:38Speaker 4: you're still like I could have swore.
- 31:40Speaker 2: I really I swear that I looked and there was
- 31:43Speaker 2: somebody between Shi and him.
- 31:45Speaker 4: Now there was a weird guy was old.
- 31:48Speaker 3: No, there was an older man at North Carolina, because
- 31:51Speaker 3: we'll talk about that here in a minute. Maybe you're thinking,
- 31:53Speaker 3: if uh, there was that Bill Garrett Garrett one year
- 31:57Speaker 3: and then went to Matt Doherty and then went to
- 32:00Speaker 3: Roy Williams and then kind of maybe that was what
- 32:02Speaker 3: you're thinking. But anyway, Saint John's do I like Saint
- 32:05Speaker 3: John's the upset. It's my one upset of the.
- 32:08Speaker 1: That take Duke. I want to take Duke playing it
- 32:10Speaker 1: very close.
- 32:12Speaker 4: I could see that six and a half.
- 32:14Speaker 2: I want to I think the Duke team is just
- 32:17Speaker 2: a little bit better than the Saint John's. I know
- 32:20Speaker 2: Saint John's has the money in their team, but I
- 32:23Speaker 2: want to take the I'm going to take Duke, just
- 32:27Speaker 2: just barely.
- 32:28Speaker 1: I don't. I want to take Saint John's in the points.
- 32:32Speaker 4: Could I would?
- 32:33Speaker 1: I would take Saint John's in the plants, but but
- 32:35Speaker 1: not win. No.
- 32:36Speaker 2: Duke has played a lot of very close games. I mean,
- 32:38Speaker 2: they opened with Siena very very close, and they shouldn't have.
- 32:44Speaker 1: Game after that.
- 32:45Speaker 2: The surprising Alabama missing two star players versus number one Michigan.
- 32:52Speaker 1: Is this where Alabama falls apart?
- 32:54Speaker 4: Lose this horribly? Take Michigan at the point, is this where.
- 32:57Speaker 2: We see the lack of those two players coming into
- 33:01Speaker 2: play against Michigan hands down eight and a half points
- 33:05Speaker 2: spread with one hundred and seventy two and a half
- 33:09Speaker 2: over or total.
- 33:11Speaker 3: Alabama's got hit threes. I really believe that. I think
- 33:14Speaker 3: that's going to be the key to them. And they've
- 33:17Speaker 3: got to.
- 33:18Speaker 4: Score A threes and D threes and D.
- 33:20Speaker 3: And I don't think they've got it because I think
- 33:22Speaker 3: the front coart of Michigan is really good and they
- 33:24Speaker 3: have a little bit better interior and the players that are.
- 33:26Speaker 4: Missing Halloway, Yeah, I mean, hey.
- 33:32Speaker 3: And it's great they've made it so far. But who'd
- 33:34Speaker 3: they play Tech? Who was out their best player in Hofstra?
- 33:37Speaker 2: Come on, yeah, No, I had I had Tech because
- 33:41Speaker 2: I figured the debt kid was coming back and I actually.
- 33:44Speaker 4: Blew his knee at the top and he's out.
- 33:46Speaker 2: Oh okay, But I actually did have Tech over Bama.
- 33:50Speaker 1: But with Bama missing.
- 33:51Speaker 2: And hey, what does this say about Beard? Beard's doing
- 33:54Speaker 2: it doing a great job there.
- 33:57Speaker 4: We talked about Beard.
- 33:59Speaker 3: He's a Mississippi is oats.
- 34:03Speaker 2: Yes, it was just doing a great job with with
- 34:07Speaker 2: missing players continuing.
- 34:09Speaker 4: I agree, I agreed with that.
- 34:10Speaker 3: I'll give him credit for that, all right, Michigan State
- 34:13Speaker 3: Yukon super nice guy versus the most annoying guy history.
- 34:17Speaker 3: I'm simply rooting for Michigan State because Dan Hurley annoys
- 34:20Speaker 3: the piss out of me.
- 34:22Speaker 4: It's gonna be it's gonna be in DC as well.
- 34:24Speaker 4: So it's is it.
- 34:25Speaker 1: His face now?
- 34:26Speaker 4: It's just just bitches all the time? He really?
- 34:29Speaker 1: I cannot stand the hurly face Bobby played at Duke.
- 34:33Speaker 2: I could not stand looking at him. I was a
- 34:37Speaker 2: child and I wanted to go out and beat him up.
- 34:39Speaker 4: That's great.
- 34:40Speaker 2: You never knew that I cannot stand there face, something
- 34:44Speaker 2: about their face.
- 34:45Speaker 4: Rooting for Michigan State, and I think Michigan State can
- 34:48Speaker 4: win this.
- 34:48Speaker 3: I really do Can's because of the age, the age,
- 34:53Speaker 3: and it's going to be physical, and I think they can.
- 34:56Speaker 2: Where Hurley might learn a lesson from is Oh on
- 35:02Speaker 2: how to play and how.
- 35:04Speaker 1: To finish, you know what I mean.
- 35:07Speaker 2: But he he'll he'll understand. You know, you're gonna come
- 35:11Speaker 2: in with this attitude and this chip on your shoulder
- 35:15Speaker 2: and is Tho's not Iszo's coming in to play like
- 35:17Speaker 2: he usually does.
- 35:19Speaker 4: Well, He's going to be more of a game game.
- 35:22Speaker 4: What do you call it?
- 35:23Speaker 5: Game?
- 35:24Speaker 1: General?
- 35:24Speaker 4: Yeah, there you go, there you go, all right. I like,
- 35:28Speaker 4: I'm Eric from Michigan State, and here's.
- 35:29Speaker 1: The game that nobody really wants to win.
- 35:32Speaker 3: No, I think this is the this is the best
- 35:34Speaker 3: game I do. I think it's the closest game I think.
- 35:39Speaker 3: I mean, you say Saint John's and Duke. I think
- 35:43Speaker 3: Saint John's win. I think both teams win a little
- 35:45Speaker 3: bigger if they win. I could see Duke blowing out
- 35:48Speaker 3: Saint John's if it goes that way. You know, Saint
- 35:51Speaker 3: John's in an upset.
- 35:52Speaker 1: I watched.
- 35:53Speaker 4: But I think I think Carolina.
- 35:55Speaker 3: I think Tennessee and Iowa State is going to be
- 35:57Speaker 3: back and forth, back and forth. You look at you
- 36:00Speaker 3: look at you look at Tennessee shooting fifty fifty three.
- 36:03Speaker 3: I think it's fifty three and something like that in
- 36:05Speaker 3: the first two games. Maybe, Now Virginia was a good win.
- 36:09Speaker 3: Now you're going to talk about You're going to talk
- 36:12Speaker 3: about the why.
- 36:14Speaker 4: Can I not think of the coach, but the Jacobe.
- 36:17Speaker 3: Gillespie kid from Tennessee is playing lights out and he
- 36:21Speaker 3: likes to shoot threes. He's got to make him though.
- 36:24Speaker 3: Now do we turn around, or do we look at
- 36:26Speaker 3: what's the coach for Tennessee? Why am I just dropping
- 36:29Speaker 3: used to be at Texas. I can see his face.
- 36:32Speaker 3: It's always they're blaming him. It's it's always blaming him.
- 36:36Speaker 1: Always.
- 36:37Speaker 3: Tjo, the coach Forrive of State, will be the next
- 36:41Speaker 3: coach in my opinion, at North Carolina. I don't know
- 36:44Speaker 3: if he's been talked to. There's been a lot of
- 36:46Speaker 3: talk about that, but I think with Matt Campbell leaving
- 36:51Speaker 3: Iowa State, there's some money issues. They're turning into obviously
- 36:54Speaker 3: a basketball school, which helps Azenburger. But I think that
- 36:58Speaker 3: it's Rick Barnes.
- 37:02Speaker 1: Yes, but sorry, ladies and gentlemen, I don't even know
- 37:05Speaker 1: rooting for.
- 37:06Speaker 4: Rick, I mean really rooting for Rick on this.
- 37:08Speaker 3: But I think the defense, I think the physicality, and
- 37:10Speaker 3: I think.
- 37:12Speaker 4: We talked about the.
- 37:13Speaker 3: Free the coach, the free coach. No, the three pointer
- 37:17Speaker 3: that the three point yeah, so.
- 37:20Speaker 1: A luck, honey, honey. No. So I don't know. I
- 37:25Speaker 1: ended up watching this.
- 37:26Speaker 4: Game in Illinois.
- 37:27Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 37:27Speaker 4: There's gonna be a lot of I like, I like
- 37:30Speaker 4: watching by the way.
- 37:31Speaker 1: Duke lose to North Carolina.
- 37:34Speaker 4: Yeah, but did they have the Wilson kid.
- 37:37Speaker 1: Yes, let me just jump here to this. I don't
- 37:43Speaker 1: remember who.
- 37:44Speaker 4: Is it, Caleb Wilson? I think it. Did he play
- 37:48Speaker 4: in that game?
- 37:49Speaker 2: Hold on, I'm going to I'm jumping over here. Seventy
- 37:52Speaker 2: one sixty eight? It was one hell of a game.
- 37:57Speaker 1: Is that him?
- 37:57Speaker 4: Yeah? That's him. Yeah, he gets hurt, he misses the tournament.
- 38:02Speaker 3: You talk about Hubert Davis having no issues with keeping
- 38:05Speaker 3: his job, he turns around and gets fired because they're
- 38:08Speaker 3: asking him pretty much to retire.
- 38:10Speaker 4: You've got this Shimbert or shermert or whatever, Bubba Cunningham.
- 38:14Speaker 3: It's like a current ad and an incoming ad making decisions. Obviously,
- 38:18Speaker 3: the new ad has already hired Bill Belichick. Fucking stupid.
- 38:21Speaker 4: I mean, let's just say it out loud. And now
- 38:23Speaker 4: they're gonna they.
- 38:24Speaker 3: Fire Hubert Davis only because he's old. I promise she
- 38:28Speaker 3: he's old and boring.
- 38:29Speaker 2: That's why Billy Donand from the Bulls.
- 38:32Speaker 4: Yeah, that's been one of the names.
- 38:33Speaker 3: And I'm like, why would Billy leave unless he's gonna
- 38:35Speaker 3: get fired at the Bulls. And why would the Bulls
- 38:38Speaker 3: fire Billy Donovan when they've taken every player away from
- 38:40Speaker 3: him for the past four years.
- 38:42Speaker 1: Not even four years.
- 38:44Speaker 4: More than that.
- 38:44Speaker 3: I think the Iowa State is the head coach there,
- 38:49Speaker 3: so that's gonna be My prediction is that. But you know,
- 38:52Speaker 3: my rant of the day is these quasi ad retiring.
- 38:58Speaker 4: It's stupid, it's fucking.
- 39:01Speaker 2: What's happening is they're getting these flashy they do they
- 39:04Speaker 2: want to do what the Big twelve did when the
- 39:07Speaker 2: Big twelve hired.
- 39:10Speaker 1: Your Mark. That's what they're trying to do.
- 39:13Speaker 2: They're trying to get these guys to come in and
- 39:17Speaker 2: do what or Mark did as the commissioner of the
- 39:19Speaker 2: Big twelve. I get it, start start wheeling, dealing, baby,
- 39:24Speaker 2: get the money, get where you need that money to be.
- 39:27Speaker 3: Twenty nine and ten, twenty and thirteen, twenty nine and eight,
- 39:30Speaker 3: twenty three and fourteen twenty four nine. That's his record
- 39:33Speaker 3: this year, those years, over the past five years, one hundred,
- 39:36Speaker 3: twenty five and fifty four, almost a seven hundred winning
- 39:39Speaker 3: percentage at North Carolina.
- 39:41Speaker 4: When you're competing against Duke and this year.
- 39:45Speaker 3: Their best player is hurt and not in the tournament,
- 39:48Speaker 3: and you fire them. You know why you're fire him
- 39:50Speaker 3: and no one's saying it. It's because he's older, but
- 39:54Speaker 3: he's older every that's why he's older.
- 39:58Speaker 1: Every period knew. Everybody knew that it was coming.
- 40:06Speaker 3: He's not flashy, he's older that I don't think it's
- 40:10Speaker 3: I don't.
- 40:10Speaker 1: Think it, said was the only one that did not
- 40:12Speaker 1: see it.
- 40:12Speaker 4: I don't think it's a racist thing.
- 40:14Speaker 1: It's not. Wow. Why are you going to bring that down?
- 40:16Speaker 1: Nobody even said that.
- 40:18Speaker 4: Oh, but I think it's an age thing. What's the difference.
- 40:22Speaker 1: I didn't even say it was an age thing.
- 40:23Speaker 4: Oh, I think it is an age thing. This is
- 40:25Speaker 4: me given my opinion.
- 40:26Speaker 1: I thought I got a guy.
- 40:28Speaker 3: That got seven winning percentage, didn't have his best player.
- 40:32Speaker 2: It was a lack of continued success in going to three.
- 40:39Speaker 1: I know, I know, but this is you.
- 40:41Speaker 2: Gotta how much money you pay and compared to the
- 40:43Speaker 2: other school, stay basketball school.
- 40:47Speaker 4: Are they contributing to that? Neil like it's a bat.
- 40:50Speaker 1: But I don't.
- 40:51Speaker 2: I cannot say that. I don't know. If we had
- 40:54Speaker 2: a breakdown of everybody's in a OL.
- 40:56Speaker 3: They had one of the best freshman guys to admit
- 40:58Speaker 3: to them and play this year, and Kayleb Wilson, he
- 41:01Speaker 3: got hurt, didn't make the tournament, it's a totally different
- 41:03Speaker 3: team without him. It's bullshit. There's something else behind it.
- 41:06Speaker 3: And I'm just letting you know.
- 41:07Speaker 4: The new guy coming in wants something of his self
- 41:10Speaker 4: I got and there's a lot to factor.
- 41:12Speaker 1: I'm not saying that that that is not what it is.
- 41:15Speaker 4: Oh, that's exactly what it is.
- 41:17Speaker 2: You had Hubert had gone to the final four, I
- 41:23Speaker 2: believe he might still have his job.
- 41:28Speaker 1: I honestly believe that he would have.
- 41:30Speaker 3: They gone to the North Carolina state coach. What he
- 41:32Speaker 3: go to the lead eight last year and he still
- 41:34Speaker 3: lost his job. He was fired before the turn.
- 41:36Speaker 1: Oh they had a terrible season this year.
- 41:38Speaker 3: That was Will Wade who just got hired at LSU.
- 41:40Speaker 3: And they wasn't that terrible. They were twenty fourteen and made.
- 41:42Speaker 4: The play in I'm aware, So that's not horrible.
- 41:46Speaker 2: What okay, you look at you look at Hubert Davis,
- 41:49Speaker 2: and we can look at Porter Mosier and we are
- 41:50Speaker 2: on the same issue with that. You know, we kind
- 41:55Speaker 2: of expected Porter to get let go until the new
- 41:59Speaker 2: ad said hold on, we're gonna give you some money
- 42:01Speaker 2: and we're going to see what you can do with this.
- 42:03Speaker 3: Yeah, but Porter's not playing it anywhere near elite program
- 42:06Speaker 3: that's supposed to be is.
- 42:07Speaker 1: I got that.
- 42:08Speaker 3: But he's also had way more double digit losses per
- 42:11Speaker 3: year than Hubert Davis said. I understand that ten, thirteen
- 42:15Speaker 3: and fourteen. But you've got to look at where the
- 42:17Speaker 3: schools like, we're a basketball school.
- 42:19Speaker 2: We should be due year in and out, and we
- 42:21Speaker 2: should be in the final We're in the final four.
- 42:25Speaker 3: All right, anything else, but that's what we'll talk We'll
- 42:28Speaker 3: talk about that. Getting ready to go. Games are getting
- 42:31Speaker 3: ready kick off. We're gonna get off here. Thank you
- 42:33Speaker 3: all for joining us. We want to play a cup.
- 42:34Speaker 4: One more. A couple of clips.
- 42:35Speaker 1: Yeah, we got a couple of clips.
- 42:37Speaker 4: This is and enjoy these clipses.
- 42:38Speaker 1: If you hadn't heard it, this will be the state
- 42:41Speaker 1: of coaches.
- 42:42Speaker 4: This is great. It's worth the listen.
- 42:49Speaker 5: Seven. Yeah, is it different kids in the stands on
- 42:53Speaker 5: their second wife. Yeah, this is a little bit different.
- 42:57Speaker 5: So then you say, well, why are they staying in
- 43:01Speaker 5: school so long? For the money? I don't blame them.
- 43:06Speaker 5: I do not blame them. It's our fault that we
- 43:08Speaker 5: have nothing that prohibits age. Make it twenty five kids
- 43:14Speaker 5: transfer five times. Why, it's the same reason can I
- 43:19Speaker 5: get more money somewhere. That's why if you put your
- 43:21Speaker 5: name into portal when you're on my team, you're out.
- 43:24Speaker 5: I'm not going to be extorted. You know where we
- 43:26Speaker 5: stand on things.
- 43:28Speaker 2: So in today's all right, now here is another one
- 43:34Speaker 2: that I found.
- 43:35Speaker 1: It's it's an older one.
- 43:41Speaker 5: I mean there's Look, there are a lot of older
- 43:45Speaker 5: gentlemen with beards playing basketball in college right now. There
- 43:49Speaker 5: are so you you know. The one that's crazy is
- 43:53Speaker 5: the kid. The guy comes in and your and he's
- 43:55Speaker 5: waving to his kids up in the seats, and you're like,
- 43:59Speaker 5: wait a minute, the guy got two kids. He's still
- 44:01Speaker 5: playing college basketball. Crazy thing. He's using nil for his
- 44:07Speaker 5: first wife's alimony and now he's still playing college basketball.
- 44:11Speaker 5: Are we nuts? So now you have these kind of
- 44:14Speaker 5: games in these stores, that team is really old, we
- 44:19Speaker 5: might guess.
- 44:21Speaker 3: Okay, uh jump over here to uh now this is
- 44:26Speaker 3: coach Brad Underwood in Illinois. He's talking about playing Obviously,
- 44:30Speaker 3: Houston's got a home game.
- 44:31Speaker 4: They made it to this.
- 44:32Speaker 2: Right and and the fact that it is a legitimate
- 44:36Speaker 2: home game, even though it's it's.
- 44:38Speaker 3: It's it's just it's great, great, good good commentating by Brad.
- 44:45Speaker 6: You know, I've been asked that before, and I'll be honest,
- 44:49Speaker 6: I could care less. And I'm gonna I'm gonna sound
- 44:53Speaker 6: really kind of selfish here. I'm an old juco ball coach.
- 44:58Speaker 6: I drove on sixteen passenger vans. I drove from Dodge City,
- 45:03Speaker 6: Kansas to Mace, Arizona for a basketball game, for a
- 45:06Speaker 6: tournament and a bush. You had told me back then
- 45:09Speaker 6: that I'm getting to coach basketball in the sweet sixteen
- 45:11Speaker 6: and play Houston, I would sign up for it.
- 45:15Speaker 1: I would crawl to get there.
- 45:19Speaker 6: If we want to beat them, no matter where we
- 45:21Speaker 6: play them, we'd have to play great. Guess what we're
- 45:23Speaker 6: gonna have to do that tomorrow, And and I think
- 45:26Speaker 6: they're going to have to play well if they want
- 45:27Speaker 6: a chance to beat us. And so we've won on
- 45:30Speaker 6: the road.
- 45:32Speaker 4: Great commentation.
- 45:33Speaker 2: So yeah, that's I don't think we never got really
- 45:36Speaker 2: to the state of coaching in Hogson. You know, he left,
- 45:40Speaker 2: and I was I was surprised by that. I didn't
- 45:44Speaker 2: realize it until after it already happened.
- 45:47Speaker 1: I don't even when. Yeah, he went to Providence. When
- 45:50Speaker 1: did he take the job.
- 45:51Speaker 4: Just this last week? Yeah, he had a really good quote.
- 45:54Speaker 3: He said, if you want to discuss or challenge my
- 45:57Speaker 3: recruiting abilities, just look at my wife.
- 46:00Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 46:01Speaker 4: Great, great comment that so many times she's pretty warman.
- 46:06Speaker 2: All Right, very short episode. I think it's our shortest
- 46:10Speaker 2: in is it. It's forty five minutes in this season.
- 46:13Speaker 2: We've got basketball to watch.
