  Speaker 1: healthcare provider for all mountaineers including you. All right, let's
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: do this thing. A lot of different angles to take.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: Following West Virginia's second round game against the Kentucky Wildcats
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: and sid Hope Coliseum yesterday, final score seventy four to
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: seventy three. If you are watching or listening, you already
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: knew that. So what else did we take from that game?
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: And there are so many different things. We'll get into
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: the statistical aspect of it in Spreads on Stats with
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Brad will break down the numbers.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: But I have some obvious observations, figured you did.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: What are you chortling?
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: Because he was worried you were going to move into
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: things past his obvious observations, and we would say some
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: things that show up in obvious observations, So he needed
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: to come out of the gate to tell her, to
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: remind you that he's got those. So you might as
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: well hit the music and let him go. Then we'll
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: circle back. It's well, stare, I know, I'm aware, Go ahead,
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: hit the music let him go?
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Did it stress you out while you were gone that
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: We've been talking a little bit in advance before you
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: start your observations, and we're taking your observations from you.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Did it? Does it stress you out? Please answer the question,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: mister Kirsch will and deposition form. Does that sometimes bother you? Yes?
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Or no?
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: I don't recall.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Does that sometimes bother you?
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I don't recall. Yeah, it does a little bit.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: It does a little bit, because it's obvious. I mean,
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: I don't have brand stuff. I just got this one thing.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: Play the music.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: He's got thoughts that sound brand new, but that things
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: we already.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Knew, already knew.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: Heaven no, who was a take it quick before.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: Ladder, don't let the bladder blows obviousvation.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: Feel free to jump in.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, it's all yours.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: It was a fantastic game, A fantastic game. Okay, script
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: like movie script like is what it was with a
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: dispointing outcome. But in terms of the game itself, it
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: was incredible, Like I said, like a Hollywood script. I
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: in West Virginia, they go down as many as what
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: fourteen and come back fourth quarter starts their twelve down,
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: come back like four. It was like four different games
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: because each quarter, I mean the first quarter was like
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: the third quarter, the second quarter was like the fourth quarter.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: So it was just there was so much drama, and
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: I thought, you know, the final shot, it was again
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: like a Hollywood script. I mean, Mark Kellogg drew it
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: up and I was watching that huddle and I had
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: confidence because he was just drawing up. I mean, he's
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: a great coach, so you know he had something working there, right,
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: It wasn't just like see what you can get. And
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: then he had a couple options and Gia Cook had
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: the shot. Had you know, they had the shot, did
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: the step back had the shot, And it was as
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: close as it can come to going in without going
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: in right, because it bounds and if you saw the
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: video from behind the backboard Tony, it hits the front,
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: rim the back, the front and just like and just
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: rolls off the front. I mean it was that close.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: It was.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: It was that you can't come any closer. You can't
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: come any closer without it going in. The unfortunate part
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: of every sport except college football and the bowl games
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: is that it ends with a loss. Right, So today
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: you're thinking about the loss and what could have been.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: But you got to put this in context. I mean,
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: Wu finished his brand twenty eight and seven, fifteen and
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: four at home. We'll be able to raise a banner
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: at the at Hope Comloseum Big twelve Tournament champion wv
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: has won an opening round n CAA game for the
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: last three years, over three seasons. WVU to think about this,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: over three seasons, West Virginia has a seventy seven percent
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: winning percentage. Seventy seven percent pretty good, and seventy two
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: percent in conference games. That might be I was looking today.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: I didn't get it all the math done, but that
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: might be the best three year stretch ever. Absolutely well,
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: there's been years where they won eighty percent, but that's
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: probably your best three year stretch ever. Okay, yeah, it is, okay,
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: he said confidently. As for the game, you know, Gia
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: Cook Sydney Shaw each had twenty three point Shaw six
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: of eleven from three men at three point shot of
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: hers was beautiful, and I thought Wheeler really gave you
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: a heck of a performance. I mean, she's going in
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: there and in Kentucky's got these three girls. I got a
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: girl six five and two girls or just six four
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: or whatever. And Wheeler had sixteen points and played thirty
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: nine minutes. Bread, I mean she gave us, She gave
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: you like maximum effort, called those reverse shots. I mean,
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: she was just she just very crafty around the rim,
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: very crafty.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: Nifty.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I just thought she was. She was just really
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: really good in that game. High advantage where I know
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: you're going to talk more about that rebounding. It showed
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: up thirty nine, I mean thirty nine to twenty three,
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: twelve offensive rebounds for Kentucky compared to six for West Virginia.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: But West Virginia Brad had twenty eight points in the
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: paint compared to thirty two for Kentuck.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: Kept attacking, kept attacking in the paint.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: Right attacking the paint. Uh tiona key tiona keys play.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: There was a difference maker. She averages eleven points and
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: fourteen percent from three point range. She scored nineteen points
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: at ten rebounds. Asia Boone hit those threes in the
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: third quarter. That was her, the three threes right in
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: the third Yes, so you know, they they got players,
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: they made plays, they made plays. Just a just a
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: great game. And on the television broadcast. I usually listen
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: to Junior, but on the television broadcast, I watched it
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: and they.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Gave the finger yesterday what happened?
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: No, No, I wanted I'll tell you why. You know,
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: I favored Junior, but I wanted to see what TV
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: was saying about the game because I thought this is
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: our national opportunity here, and I wanted to see what
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: they were saying about the game. And they kept referencing
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: the ninety one ninety two team, and I had some
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: memories of that. I was around then, Tony, I guess
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: what was it game? I mean, that was a Rosemary Csoric,
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: Donna Abbott, Joscelyn Brand and Lourie Wilson, Christy Cooper laid
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: quartermount Jody Runner. That was a really good team.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: The end of that game against Clemson would have been
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: an absolute identical ending to yesterday's game if the shot
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: went in. Jody Runner hit the shot ninety two to
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: be Clemson the same exact way from just the opposite
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: side of the circle.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So it was nice to sort of reflect and
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: remember that ninety two team and last but not least Tony,
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: as you like to say, Mountaineer Mountainer fans show up
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Mountain Nation? Did they thirteen thousand and five oh four
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: for the first round game against Miami, Ohio on Saturdays
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: on on Saturday, on Monday twelve, eight hundred and thirty
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: for the Kentucky game. Two games? Twenty six thousand, three
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: hundred and thirty four, twenty six thousand fans for two games.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: A right great showing by Mountaineer Nation. I've got a
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: lot of shoutouts on the broadcast and just a fantastic game.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: A disappointing ending, But what is showing by this team?
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: By the fans and a great season.
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: I'll get into the game here in just second. Let's
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: talk about the fans for a minute. I was talking
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: to somebody last night about this. Mountaineer fans have an
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: unbelievable ability to take something that's going to be a
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: big event and explode the things. Yes, right from the
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: from the penns pre Penn State games to this to
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: Bowl games. They do a remarkable job, the fan base
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: does of when something's already big, then they're going to
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: take it over the top and make it even bigger.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: And I thought they did that. The fans were great.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: I'll talk again and we'll get into the specifics of
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: the game, because I thought there were a lot of
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: interesting numbers coming out of it. But just macro for
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: a second to use one of your terms. So professionally,
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: I've been in intimately involved or around women's basketball for
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: a long time now almost forty years.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Don't you have a championship in Connecticut's first champions.
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: Appreciate you bringing that up. I do, in fact having
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: women's basketball National Championship ring. But I was I was
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: sitting there last night watching that and the parallels to
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: what I remember when I got to stores Connecticut. Gina
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: was just starting to ramp the thing up, and the
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: first year I was there, you weren't selling out every game.
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: You were averaging three or four, and then suddenly you
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: had a couple games where it went to ten, and
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: then you had you started getting six pretty consistently, and
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: it was starting to take off, and you were looking
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: for markers where you kept moving the program forward from
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: where it's been. And some of that was attendance and
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: some of that was the makeup of the team. A
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: Rebecca Lobo A gen Rizzotti who's the head of the
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: Women's Basketball Olympic Committee now very engaging personalities that were
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: really talented basketball players started to catch the fans attention
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: and helped move it forward. Then suddenly fast forward, and
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: that came really quickly. Second year there, undefeated season, won
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: a national championship. But I was thinking about that what
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: Mark has been able to do with this program in
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: the three years in the parallels, and there were certainly
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: some great players that have come before. Mike Carey did
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: a great job of reputting this program back on the
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: map from a time when we stood over at Morgantown
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: High and got beat by nearly eighty by Connecticut, and
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: fans were lined up for the Connecticut players autographs, not
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: the West Virginia players, and Mike comes in and gets
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: that thing turned around and pointed in the right direction.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: And then Mark takes the baton and starts to move
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: it forward. And I texted him last night and I
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: just said, thank you, you moved this program forward for
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: what they have done. They came close against Caitlin Clark
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: and Iowa a couple years ago, and I thought that
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: point moved it forward, moved the national needle forward. And
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: then I'm watching that game last night and that building's
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: filled up at a weird time five o'clock on a Monday.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: That's a traditional start time five o'clock.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: On a Monday, which I'll get on a soapbox later
• 12:13
  Speaker 3: about when that women's tournament had to be played. I
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: mean before our game. I'm watching Iowa play a home
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: game in the middle of the afternoon on a Monday.
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's outrageous. Neither here nor there. The West
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: Virginia fan base moved it forward. And then what does
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: this team have player wise? We just saw it when
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: Jordan and said we're in here an engaging, really talented
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: group of players. That was a special group, and they
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: took the program forward. So I just thought, in a
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: macro level, who knows what comes next? Hopefully you keep
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: building this and move it forward. But I did think
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: this whole program, fan base included, picked the thing up
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: and moved it forward from where it's been.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, several different thoughts. I think this program right now
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: with Mark Kellogg, as you said, Mike set the table
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: and Mark has taken this thing now twenty five wins,
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: twenty five wins, twenty eight wins. He is truly one
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: of the best coaches in all of college basketball. And
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: it's no different. Take a look at where he has
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: gone and where he has won. He's done it the
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: hardest way possible. He wins in hard places, and he
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: continues to grow. So that's one thing. You've got one
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: of the best coaches in the country bar none. That's one. Two.
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Great point by you. West Virginia fans have some special
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: magic that like they're the water. Once you mix the
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: ingredients up, they go, hey, this might be big. They
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: go like, oh yeah, watch this in it mushrooms, bloats.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: It was crazy. I got there two plus hours before
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: the game yesterday and it was just swarmed by people.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: So that was fantastic.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Event drift. West Virginia fans are event drifven.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: That's right, absolutely, And the folks at WV hosting a
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: tournament's hard. Hosting the tournament is hard. So I give
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: a ton of credit because that thing went off seamlessly.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: So that's one. Two. Someone asked me today about the
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: sound in the Hope Coliseum during the game. I said this,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to say, hey, it was louder than
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: a men's game or this game. You know what it was.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: It was as loud as it can be. That's how
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: loud was it. It was as loud as it could be.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: There were several possessions where the place was absolutely roaring,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: and when that happens in that building, it's just a
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: unforgettable moment. That's one. Two would be that when we
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: had Sidney and Jordan in here. They are only two
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: of all those great stories that those ladies told while
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: they were here. Like that is magnified that roster. Those
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: are like really really good people. We talked about how
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: nice the folks are w men's team as well, but
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: like Mark is building a program with high quality people.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: They battled back three different times down double figures in
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: that game. That is unbelievably hard. And guess what, while
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: it is painful that you did not win that game
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: that you played to get that hosting event, it's not
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: a guarantee that you will win. And here's I say
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: that why Ohio State was eliminated at home yesterday in
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: the second round, hosting for the fourth consecutive year. They've
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: now lost their second round game at home three consecutive years.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: Yesterday's scores included at home a two seed getting beat
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: in Iowa eighty three to seventy five. You had Louisville
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: at home, a three seed, winning by a single point,
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: and you had West Virginia losing by a single point.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: So in the painful step to grow. The step this
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: year was you won the conference tournament championship, you got
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: to host. You didn't advance. The next step now is
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: you've been there, you take that next step. It's painful
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: to go through it and.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: And hard to win. This just end. It's hard.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: That was my point. That was my point. As you
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: could see from yesterday's game, the separation of winning and
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: losing is literally to your point of a ball bouncing
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: on a rim once twice three times, does it fall
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: left or does it fall right? That was the difference.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: And if West Virginia would have won that game, and
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: as everyone knows, they were that close to winning that game.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: Think about this. Kentucky led for thirty three minutes, West
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: Virginia led for two minutes. There was one lead change.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: If Cook makes the shot, that was the second lead
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: change of the game. They call time out, West Virginia
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: gets a stop, they win the game. That's how fragile
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: it is to win these games.
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: Well, we've been on the other side. We talked about
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: a men's basketball team. That's one win, certainly two from
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: an NCAA tournament. In year one under Ross Hodge led
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: Clemson for thirty seven minutes, led Ohio State for thirty
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: eight minutes. So the reverse happened. Unfortunately, West Virginia was
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: just on the wrong side of both of those, but
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: same thing happened. That that's hot it is. Let me
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: just blanket statement. I'm not talking about a sport. Hopey.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: It is hard to win. It's hard to win.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: I thought that when when West Virginia, speaking of obvious,
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: when West Virginia was able to do what it wants
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: to do, it was the most successful. By that, I
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: mean have that swarming defense, forced turnovers. But Kentucky did
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: a pretty good job for two quarters on that right
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: of breaking the press.
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: Did a tremendous shot getting They got out of sorts
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: late for most of that game. That was the difference
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: in the game is that Kentucky played how it wanted
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: to play. In West Virginia's chaos that it likes to create,
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: couldn't get to the level. Then it started to Yeah
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: at the end, but I was going to say, to
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: Tony's point, I got two other macros that will get
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: in the game. I thought Kentucky was exquisite. When that
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: building got loud, they came with a pretty immediate answer,
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: and you never quite got it to that avalanche level.
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: When West Virginia wins those games in front of a
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: raucous crowd, the avalanche comes and you can't recover from
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: the avalanche.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: Saturday.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: We saw it well Saturday, but Miami just wasn't good enough.
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: I was thinking, like Kansas on the men's side, Kansas
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: just got like, oh my god, what's happening, and you
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: get buried under the avalanche. Kentucky kept stopping it before
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: it could get to avalanche level. I yeah, you got
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: to give them a lot of credit.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And keep in mind, why was Kentucky able to
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: handle that. They played at LSU this year. They played
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: at South Carolina this year, right, so that was not
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: the first time that they were in a joint that
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: was completely filled cheering against them. That helps you.
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: They were good, and they were good.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: But even that, they commented after the game on.
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: The crowd, Yeah, sure they did it because it was
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: a great crowd.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: So it was just it was just again, it was
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: a fantastic game, a great atmosphere, a thrilling game. You
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: couldn't look away, you couldn't count West Virginia out. It
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: just didn't turn out. It just a slight role, didn't
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: doesn't go your way. But what what an overall experience?
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: As I get older, missed opportunities bummed me out more right,
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: And I think because you're you're your opportunities are getting
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: limited right as you get aging, I am aging And
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: this is an old man moment here, okay, but I'm
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: still not past it, and I don't know that I
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: will be thinking back to Jia's last shot there, guys,
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: that that's an inch away from being an iconic legendary
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: play in Mountaineer sports history, not women's basketball history, in
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: Mountaineer sports one and nationally two. That thing was going
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: to be million in the millions of social media views
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: in that not only would it have won a game
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: to get West Virginia too a sweet sixteen for the
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: first time in thirty some years, the highlight nature of
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: that she crosses that thing over and the girl falls
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: like in the late that like that is that's what
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: highlights are made of. And in that moment, that place
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: she made that was an unbelievable play by Jia Cook
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: and had a great look. If that thing falls, man,
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: that isn't just a cool WVU women's basketball story, that
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: thing transient. That would have been sure. See that's millions
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: of views on social That was such a great move
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: by her.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: So here's my hope. We'll get into the numbers here
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: in a second. Here's my hope that like two thousand
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: of the people that were there yesterday, like two thousand
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: of them become regulars in addition to those that are
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: already regulars. And so, like Brad said, just like at Yukon,
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: you build that thing and then you get a regular. Hey,
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: we're gonna get X number. We know that every game
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: and you go from there.
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: One hope. One last point on this, And we've said
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: this before basketball specifically. You may have heard this before, Hoppy.
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: There are great coaches everywhere. Yes, you can find great
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: coaches in places you wouldn't think great coaches would come from.
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: By the way, and I'm thinking of Mark Kellogg in particular.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: How many people knew who Mark Kellogg was before he
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: arrived here. You've landed on one of the very best
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: coaches in college basketball. He didn't come from a power.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: For you know who about him, you know who know
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: about the person doing the hiring Ren Baker. Do you
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: realize at Northwest Missouri State, Ren had Ben McCollum as
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: this men's coach and Mark Kellogg as a women's coach.
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: Oh, so, number one, there are great coaches everywhere, especially
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: in messball. And number two, you can find great players everywhere.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: Jordan Harrison turned out pretty well. She was able to
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: handle the riggers of power for pretty well, not being
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: somebody that started at power Force. I'm Katie to remember
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: players and coaches can come from anywhere.
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: How about when she came up late in the game
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: and just came around the backside and stole the ball
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: from strike.
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: Let's talk about that for a second because I have
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: that in spreads on stats, but let's talk about that now.
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: And that was two things. And if you're going to
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: be good like West Virginia's been, you need both of these.
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: That is great coaching and it's great playmaking. And here's
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: why they didn't double the post. West Virginia did not
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: double the post on strack at all all night. They
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: were not digging down, they were not coming with a
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: double until they absolutely had to get a stop and
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: kneaded the ball back and strack. If you watch her,
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: and she was phenomenal. We'll get into some of her numbers.
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: When she put it on the ground and as soon
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: as she starts to turn, that's when Jordan takes off.
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: And that girl, extrac had no clue someone was coming,
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: and it had never entered her mind that someone may
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: be coming, because you'd LOLd her into sleep of thirty
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: nine minutes of no double, and all of a sudden,
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: here comes Jordan on that call to double at that
• 22:10
  Speaker 3: moment and just said give me that and went the
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: other way. That was a brilliant X and O. And
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: that was a brilliant execution by Jordan, Just tremendous.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, really was a great moment. The three guys before
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: the game is brought to us by Jan Dill's Attorneys

• 23:30

• 23:33
  Speaker 1: a hubcap on a fifty seven Chevy. That's what I think.
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: That's how they do that.
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: That's about.
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: Visit Tutor's Biscuit World right now and take part in
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: their super breckfa what's that.
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: I said I'd eat that right now. I'm hungry.
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: I should have. I didn't think it was biscuit time.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: You're doing it ridiculous. Whatever your food, your food management
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: is awful. You just need to go get a complete
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: reset on your food manage, working on it, efforting you are, Yeah, okay,
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: time for spread zones.
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: Hey, I got a couple of other things, but I'll
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: do him later. What. No, it's not. I want to
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: get to brad stuff and then I've got a couple
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: of things to throw and if we have time, because
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: I know we're on a tight time.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: Give the guys segment. All of a sudden, Hey, listen.
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: He hadn't been here for three weeks, so he's stored up.
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: It's like getting shot out of a rocket here because
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: he's been on vacation for three weeks.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's that.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: I don't think it is.
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: Well. I think you used to host a talk show
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: in the studio for two hours a day, and I
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: think when you come in here you think you're still
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: on for two hours a day.
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: That's what I think, just trying to be relevant.
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: That's why I think I checked the numbers I'll just
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: go right to the numbers. By the way, I can't
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: get over I can't get over the show. How many
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: people come up to me and Brent say, be nicer
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: to Hopy.
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: I appreciate that, but I can hold my own. But
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: I appreciate that people have the my back. Well I am,
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: I'm the one who's attacked. Well, I don't know Tony.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: You're attacked a good bit. Yeah, I gotta text. How
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: come Tony doesn't have any gray hair and so you
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: got a look closer. I mean that Greeci and formula
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: is not far away.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: I don't worry. I ain't using that crap. No, three

  Speaker 1: help with your business, you need a plan Conley CPA group.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: All right, let's jump in spreads on stats the analytics
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: of the game between West Virginia and the University of
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: Kentucky Wildcats seventy four seventy three. Anything when you dug
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: in that made you go.
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: Like, just I thought, there are a bunch of interesting numbers.
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: Let's start with this one, though, to recap from our
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: one of the fun a bunch of fun parts of
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: our sit down with Sydney and Jordan. One of my
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: favorite hop I don't know if you had a chance
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: to look at it, but I quizzed them on Sydney
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: in particular, like, what are the best your your best
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: spots on the floor in terms of shooting percent? Where
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: are they? I think we saw it and she and
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: she knew right, she said immediately guys or Tony she said,
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: left wing three?
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: I just found this interesting first three of the game
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: versus Miami. Where did it come from? Left wing three?
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: How about last night versus UK? Four of five from
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: left wing three from Sydney saw so you talk about
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: a great combination again of getting an elite shooter into
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: the spot where she makes the most shots. They did
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: that last night. Both those things came to fruition. You
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: got her there and she just gets blistering hot when
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: she sees one go down, as a lot of great
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: shooters do. Then look out here they come. So and
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: that was fun.
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: Kentucky knew obviously knew about her, but West Virginia did
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: a good job of right bread of getting her open.
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: Scheming and running her off and setting screen. I mean
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: all that all matters. Yeah, very well done. Just a
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: couple notes, and we didn't do a preview episode on Kentucky,
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: but I jotted some notes before the game to go
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: through like what we're going to be some keys of
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: the game, and so I'll go to those here in
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: just a second. But one of them was keep an
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: eye on Kentucky from two point range with their size
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: ninety fourth percentile nationally and two point percentage at fifty
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: two percent from the field. They were fifty six percent
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: from two against West Virginia, so they did a very
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: good job there. Style was going to be a factor.
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: Could you speed them up? They don't necessarily go really
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: fast again because of their size, averaged only six points
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: per game via the fast break that was in the
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: first percentile. That's as low as you can go. Hop
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: first percentile last night only six points via fast break.
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: But I thought what they did a great job of,
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: and we're going to talk a lot about Claria Strack
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: putting her into the middle of that press break really
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: settled them down. They had a big, tall outlet there
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: and could get it out of the trap before the
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: trap could come, and then someone that could handle it.
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: Then they also had others that could bring it across
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: mid court, and I thought their ability to handle that
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: was probably the difference in the game. That's normally where
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: teams explode against West Virginia or fall down against West Virginia.
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: Strack was tremendous all but five games this season where
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: she scored in double figures. Kentucky was one in four
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: in those games and hops she was just tremendous. Eighteen points,
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: fifteen rebounds, four assists, four blocks, which was above her average,
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: which was seventh nationally. She was averaging three blocks a game,
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: seventh best in the country. She got four, and she
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: altered infinite number of others And we'll get to that
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: in a minute, because that was probably the difference to
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: West Virginia's inability to convert more shots at the rim
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: probably ended up catching them.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: She's about as good of a skilled big as I've
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: ever seen. Yeah, really is. I mean, you know, Mark
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: compared her to Novitsky with that little fallaway, super smooth.
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: You here where she's from Hamburg, New York. Where's the Hamburg?
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: Like fifteen miles from Buffalo. So she went to Tech
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: with Kenny Brooks, okay, and then played her freshman year there.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: He leaves and goes and he takes her to UK
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: with her.
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: You know, Tony, she had a couple shots where your
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: defend it, but you can't defend it. You know, she's six',
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: five she spent she's on the, baseline ten foot turn jump.
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: Shoot you can't defend it.
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: Well AND i also, thought in addition to just, her
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: because they had multiple, bigs it Put West virginia in
• 29:17
  Speaker 3: a disadvantage because someone was having to guard someone much.
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: Bigger and they In kentucky ran that high low double
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: post that was really. Effective put one of your bigs
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: out front that can see over your defender and drop
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: into strack on the. Inside AND i thought that was
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: a really hard set For West virginia to stop the
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: two biggest key POINTS i wrote down before the. Game number,
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: one Did West virginia get points off? Turnovers because the
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: battle was, This West virginia came into the game ninety
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: eighth percentile in points off turnovers per, game no surprise
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: if you've watched that team against a A kentucky team
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: that was ninety third percentile nationally in turnover. Rate so
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: they didn't turn it over a lot And West virginia
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: feasted on. That So kentucky ends was seventeen, turnovers which
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: was actually a high number for, them but as we just,
• 30:01
  Speaker 3: talked for the most, PART i thought they handled the.
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: Pressure just nine live ball turnovers For West, virginia which is,
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: okay but it only turned into six points point six
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: seven points per possession off live ball turnovers for the.
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: Game on the. Season to compare, that it's almost twice
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: That West virginia is normally one point one points per
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: possession off a live ball, turnover which is ninety nine
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: percent on. Nationally so if you niche it, down that
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: was going to be major good on good as you
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: are when you get to this, point which good was
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: going to be Gooder kentucky was gooder in that. Area number,
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: one number, two second key Did West Virginia this is
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: before the game, HOP i, wrote Did West virginia get
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: shots at the? Rim here's WHY i asked That kentucky
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: coming in allowed half the national average in percentage of
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: opponent shots at the. Rim just sixteen percent Of kentucky's
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: opponent shots came at the, rim so people weren't even
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: going in. There strack was seventh in the country and,
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: blocks but most teams weren't even challenging him in there
• 30:58
  Speaker 3: because they couldn't get to the. RIM i was really
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: impressed With West virginia's ability to get to the, rim
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: which it. Does West virginia averaged coming in forty percent
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: of its field goal attempts at the, Rim so you
• 31:09
  Speaker 3: talk about a big gap in what happens, there which
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: was going to pay. Off West virginia got in, there
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: thirty seven percent of its shots came at the, rim
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: but they made just forty one percent of those, shots
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: nine of twenty, two and you probably just needed one
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: more and you could have found those somewhere. Else so,
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: again good on. Good both teams win it their strength
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: and they were, one maybe one possession. Better on That
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: West virginia got a similar number of shots more Than
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: kentucky gives. Up But West virginia didn't make its normal
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: amount from that, distance and that's probably your difference in the.
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: GAME a couple individuals we talked About Gia. Cook she
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: was tremendous twenty three points on the. Day sydney was,
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: great twenty three, points six stree, pointers four steals to
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: close out her mountain your. Career so you talk about
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: finishing as strong as you can, finish she was. Tremendous
• 31:55
  Speaker 3: jordan eleven Points forrest's four, rebounds for, steels zero tvers
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: in about as high leverage a game as you can.
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: Get she was just what a joy to watch she's
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: been for three. Years And Mimi wheeler hop you mentioned.
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: It sixteen points more impressively eight of eleven from the,
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: Field so her ability to draw out and hit a
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: mid range and her craftiness around the basket to work
• 32:16
  Speaker 3: against a distinct height disadvantage and still finish eight of
• 32:20
  Speaker 3: eleven really.
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: Impressive can we franchise? Her mimi would like to make
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: her the franchise.

  Speaker 3: you had multiple, options, right he could have drawn up
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: a bunch of different things. There That Gia cook was
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: a great choice because of her ability to normally hit
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: those mid range but she can also put it on the,
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: floor which was coming next if she hadn't broke the girl's.

• 38:43
  Speaker 3: THERE i got it last, Week thank.
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: You and this is, again this is how we went
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: for years and not much, changed and now everything is,
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: changing not monthly but. Daily and how college football programs
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: are creating entire entertainment ecosystems within their, programs, right not
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: just a guy shooting, video but an entire television, Video
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: internet social media unit with dozens of, people professionals with,
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: interns with part timers to create. Content because one of the,
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: entities one of the the programming that is still getting, Viewers,
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: brad is college, sports, right that's. Growing so they're blatching
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: onto that and creating all kinds of content and almost
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: immeasurable out of content and meeting people where they are
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: not saying you've got to come, here but pushing out
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: content to, fans to, clients to all kinds of. People
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: and so colleges are adding expensive multi media center staff
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: with all these, People. Brad you talk a lot about the,
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: brand and the brand has always been. Important now the
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: brand is exploiting, exponentially not only to not only to
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: programs but to individual and the schools that are ahead
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: on this are understanding that and investing in these high,
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: tech well staffed multi media divisions associated with the major.
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: Sports, yeah It's West virginia has, it and it's it's
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: amazing AS i watch every team has a cadre of
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: shooters and creatives that follow them step for, step like
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: the getting onto the airplane picture has become standard in the,
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: Industry like if you don't have a trip that starts off, with,
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: hey the guys are getting down the airplane or the
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: ladies are getting on the, right and then that creative
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: comes from. That so, yeah it's a whole new. World
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: now the question becomes long, range what is the ULTIMATE
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: roi on? That AND i think we're probably going to
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: get that figured. Out and if they feel that there,
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: is then there will be more of. It but if
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: they realize at some point that it, isn't then you'll
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: see it go.
• 41:01
  Speaker 3: Away it all the stuff cycles, through it's just different.
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: Things so first it was the glossy color media, guides, yes.
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: First then it was graphics inside of. Facilities that's. There
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: now this is, next and brand building has become, buzzwords
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: not just for universities but for. Players but you know
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: what remains true what you know what remains true about
• 41:25
  Speaker 3: brand building from a player, Perspective you know what needs to,
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: follow and it should come first winning in. Production so
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: winning in production comes and then that stuff starts to
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: really take. Hold but you've got to. Produce the brand
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: building and all the fancy stuff that comes around that
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: for a player isn't going to mean much if you don't.
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: Produce so you've got to. Produce and SO i know
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: all these guys need to have the people around them
• 41:50
  Speaker 3: and want to build their brand and want to get
• 41:51
  Speaker 3: pictures and want TO i want to do. It you better.
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: Produce that still remains at the heart of. This you've
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: got to, produce and you've got to, win and then
• 41:59
  Speaker 3: all that other stuff is nice around.
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: IT i got one other, thing So, brad props to
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: you because you predicted the following development IN. Nil there,
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: is you, know the clearinghouse The College Sports commission that
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: REVIEWS nil deals to see if they meet the standards
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: of range of compensation and, valid valid business. Purposes and
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: as soon as that came, up you, said people are
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: gonna run through that like a both through a china.
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: Shop Eighteen nebraska athletes have ask for an arbitration hearing
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: to review a recent decision who by The College Sports
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: commission to DENY innil. Deals the players are arguing The
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: College Sports commission is denying them millions of dollars in.
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: Compensation so we'll see what. Happens because this commission was
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: set up to supposedly MONITOR, inil to make sure that
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: it was legit IN, il that you weren't being overpaid
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: for the services that you were. Providing and a lot
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: of schools have, Said, tony a lot of schools have, Said, uh,
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: Whatever we're gonna do what we're gonna, do and we'll
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: see what you're going to say about. That and that's
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: what we, Are, brad as you talked. About that's what
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: we are, now is that, schools big time, schools are
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: saying we'll pay what we want to pay and let's
• 43:10
  Speaker 2: see what you're going to do about.
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: It so it's it's probably number one on the list
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: of when people scream about you got to get it under,
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: control you got to get in under, control you got
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: to get under. Control you've got to want to play
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: by the. Rules, yeah, Right and schools have shown they're
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: just not going to play. Consequences there were guidelines In
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: guardrails play place with the rev, share, right that's what
• 43:29
  Speaker 3: it was supposed to. Do and there were certain schools
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: that just went right around. That so then other schools
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: that were attempting to play by the rules originally now
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: look around and, go, well, well hold on, here what
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: you're not playing by the? Rules why AM i? Playing
• 43:41
  Speaker 3: so we're in the same spot we've always. Been just
• 43:44
  Speaker 3: more money being spent in different, places but we're where
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: we've always. Landed so until you can get people on
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: the same page and agree to follow the rules or
• 43:53
  Speaker 3: some enforcement of said, rules it's going to be a tough.
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: Landscape and make no, mistake it's a tough landscape right, Now.
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: Socape so, guys all of, this you, know the settlement
• 44:03
  Speaker 2: was supposed to provide some, equality right or some guidelines.
• 44:07
  Speaker 2: Rules but if some as you, said if some schools
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: are gonna Go, okay we're gonna follow the, rules they're
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: gonna be in one, group and then another group's gonna, be,
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: uh we're gonna do what we're gonna.
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: Do, Which hoppy is no different as we've talked about
• 44:21
  Speaker 3: on this show for, years always been. There there's no
• 44:23
  Speaker 3: different than it has. Been you just know about it.
• 44:25
  Speaker 3: Now you just know about the. Payments you didn't know
• 44:28
  Speaker 3: about the payments. Before but it was the same. Thing
• 44:31
  Speaker 3: there were some people that, said, oh they're, rules that,
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: right they're, right not follow the, rules don't, Care i'm
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: gonna pay. You Over, here it wasn't as publicized as
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: it was, now and there were other schools the vast
• 44:40
  Speaker 3: majority that, said, yeah we have compliance departments and we're
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: gonna take. It s heerous say we're not doing, that
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: and that still, exists it's.
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: Just more Public it all changed when there used to
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: be a fear that THE ncaa was investigating, you and
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: administrators would run quickly and they would do whatever it,
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: took fall on their face and they'd, say, hey we'll
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: take scholarships away from. Ourselves da da da da. Da
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: and then at one point there was a seminal moment
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: in which schools went the exact opposite direction of, oh
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: we're really sorry to, hey you know, what screw you
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: will sue you in. Court you're wrong and you're. Wrong
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: and then when they started to THE ncaa started, losing
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: and then all the other schools became empowered by that and, go,
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: hey if they're going to go to court and, win
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: and the entire paradigm. Shifted that's why we are where
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: we are, today and you have.
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: With particularly The big ten and THE sec are so,
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: big and there's so much money involved with network. Television
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: it makes THE ncaa look like a pea. Shooter, yeah
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: just LIKE i.
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: Believe but remember we always, SAY i, Know i'm a brooker.
• 45:47
  Speaker 3: RECORD i say this all the. Time THE ncaaa is
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: its member. SCHOOLS i know there's there's AN ncaa president
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: and there's a staff in, it but it's it's the
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: member schools that that's who THE ncaa. Is it's not
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: this random nebulous group that sits over. There it's all the.
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: Schools it's not a tertiary party to the conversation.
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: Party that comes in to oversee. This it's the. Schools
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: the schools are. INVOLVED i, mean how many times have
• 46:09
  Speaker 3: we talked about various administrators here have been ON ncaa
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: councils and overseeing and putting rules in, place impacting. It
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: it's the member. Institutions so the member institutions aren't playing by.
• 46:21
  Speaker 3: There Ren baker always decided not to play by their Own.
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: Rent baker always says. This the one year he served
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: as a principal at a middle school or an elementary,
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: school whatever it. Was he, says parents are all for
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: rules until it impacts their, child and the same in
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: THE NC, doublea And brad makes a great. Point people
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: forget they always SAY, NCAA, NCAA ncuba like it's this
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: third party out on an island that just sends out
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: The it's the fricking administrators and presidents of the schools
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: that are making the. Rules THE nc doublea's job is
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: to enforce the. Rules it's the same thing In West.
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: Virginia in THE, ssac those are the principles that make the,
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: rules and then the ssac's job is to oversee that
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: the rules are properly, followed that the rules have been
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: created by their. Principles and in this case it's the.
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: Colleges and you'll never get that. Together you, Understand, YEAH i,
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: Understand but like you take THE S S A. C
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: i think that schools do do for the most, part
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: follow the. Rules but now you're now you're to a
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: point where.
• 47:21
  Speaker 3: You, know what are you talking?
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: About they follow the rules part.
• 47:24
  Speaker 3: While this transfer stuff has become such a hot.
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: Well it just got changed by the. Legislature why changed
• 47:31
  Speaker 2: it changed.
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: Because they had a preposterous, thing or you could just
• 47:35
  Speaker 1: will that.
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: Wasn't THE ssc that was, legislated that was that Was.
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: Virginia that's what we're.
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: Saying it's people and not the.

  Speaker 1: your home court advantage and advantage so much music in between.

• 58:58
  Speaker 1: the way it, is and you wouldn't want it any

  Speaker 1: way if you were on the, road and so it
• 59:03

  Speaker 2: Him, hey CAN i give you a story almost kind
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 2: of semi related to the end of The West virginia.
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 2: Game you, know the Where West virginia throws the ball.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 2: In it was two tenths of a, second probably should
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 2: have been a little bit more two tenths of a.
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 2: Second and who they throw it? To brad who caught
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 2: it it?
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: Was it was, McRae i.
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 2: Believe so all you can do with three tenths or
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 2: less is to. Tip you can't catch you can't catch and, shoot,
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 2: right that's. Correct for one of our games In Charleston saturday,
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 2: morning in the first, half near the end of the first,
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 2: QUARTER i think it was or just before, halftime AND
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 2: i forget which. Team three tenths of a, second they
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 2: throw it in under the basket in the, paint player catches,
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 2: it shoots it and, scores and the ball goes in
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 2: prior to the, buzzer or the shot goes off prior
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 2: to the, buzzer but it's waved off because it's three
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: tenths of.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 1: A, second and the rules they said they made a.
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 2: Catch, yeah because they said it made a, catch and
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 2: so everybody was. Upset everybody was what they got it
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 2: in before the before the buzzer went off and catch, it
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 2: but you can't catch and. Shoot so it was the right.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: Call just an interesting which you don't see that.
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 1: Often, no you're, Right you're absolutely, Right. Texter there's many
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 1: things to complain about on college. Athletics low on the
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: radar is game, times but all season we've had weird start.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: Times games in the tournament tip at ten thirty pm
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 1: in The east ten thirty am in The. West, also
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 1: why the standalone games On saturday And sunday only to
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: have nine to forty five tips on them nights makes
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: it make it make. Sense SO i wrote back to
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: this person AND i, said it's really super simple sense
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: one word. Television television pays THE. Ncaa television pays. Conferences
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 1: conferences pay the. Schools in order to receive that, money
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: you surrender your rights as to what time the games.
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 1: Are you are dictated what time the games. Are why
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 1: does television start games and when you think is a weird?
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: Time because there are various time zones across our country
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: that go from east to, west which are three, hours
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: and so television's goal is to spread the games so
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 1: that they that they fully fill a. Day and so
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: you're absolutely one thousand percent. Correct it's super weird back
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 1: here when these games go, late like In vegas next,
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 1: week we'll start at five O'clock vegas, time which will
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: be eight o'clock, Here but the second game will go
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 1: so what's that third that's, like that's ten forty five
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 1: eleven o'clock here. Start so you're absolutely, right but quite,
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: simply it's always THE tv.
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 2: Folk, tony THE cbs And turner are paying THE ncaa
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 2: for the first time for the tournament rights a billion
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 2: dollars billion a. Year, yeah it's the first time it's
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 2: gotten to a. Billion so they might, say we're playing
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 2: at eight in the, morning and somebody, GOES i think
