  Speaker 1: Weather was nice. However, the Mountaineer basketball team suffered its
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: first two losses of the season painful fashion. West Virginia
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: falls Friday night to Clemson seventy to sixty seven in
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: the first game of the of the event for WVU,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: and then on Sunday lost to a blistering hot Xavier
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: team who made sixteen three pointers in twenty five attempts,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: equaling the record for the most threes by an opposing
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: team in Mountaineer basketball history. That took six Other teams
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: had hit you for sixteen. No one's ever gone above sixteen,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: and it's a wild game. Seventy eight to sixty eight.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: West Virginia falls. Both teams make the identical number of
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: field goals. They each had twenty five, but the ten
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: extra three pointers that the Musketeers had is a ten
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: point victory. Kind of an a statistical anomaly there, but
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: that's how the way that worked out. Coming up on
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: our program, we will talk about hoops. We will kind
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: of dive in, see where we are, what's going on,
• 2:58

  Speaker 1: while we're recording right now, playing in their first game.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: So we'll do live updates of a game that will
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: be over by the time the show has posted. Okay,
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: kind of a real time kind of a real time thing.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: We had a great event Saturday in Charleston, South Carolina,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: the folks at Fred's Fishworld.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Lawrence's Lawrence is a fantastic We had a great event.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: We've got some pictures that will that will share with you,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: but we had a great crowd, over two hundred people
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: turned out. It couldn't have been a better sight. I mean,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: the sun, the beach, the sand, had everything, it had
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: everything and everything there and also do techctual healing as well.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: I guess we have to start with your obvious observations.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Hoppy was Happy was there for the basketball on Friday.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Kind of just weird seeing him there on the road,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: isn't it, Brad?
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: It was weird.
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: It was great glad to have him there.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: There's no question.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: All of a sudden, I mean, he just didn't see
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: in the first half I had, I had the second half.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: I come back, He's sitting in my seat. I said,
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: what the hell are you doing? Get on my chair?
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: I didn't know.
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: I saw there was a broadcast location and nobody was there.
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: I thought, what is the game starts? Got to jump
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: in there.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Now we we we haven't figured out we know when
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: the halftime's done. You know we'll get that done. But anyway, uh,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: we we move ahead. What do you say we start
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: with a little bit of Happy's obvious observation.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: He's got thoughts that sound rand new yep, but that
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: things we already knew.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Absolutely no got his bomb ready.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Heaven knows, I take it quick before.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: Yep, obvious.
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: Perfect guys, Let's start with the game. Yes, game on Sunday,
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: Xavier made sixteen three pointers, Tony back to you, including
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: a bank, then three on that.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: I know you're joking, but that's almost that's.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, is it? Milicovitch, Milicovich, Miliicvitch. His name is Milicevitch, Milichiev.
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: Miler chiefs anyway, Milachievis, Milcheviks, Carol and Wright were those
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: three Milichuvich, Milchuvich, Carol and Wright. Those three bread were
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: fourteen of eighteen from three point range. That's seventy eight
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: percent for those guys. It was a freak show, right, Xavier,
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: I thought, and Brad, I'll defer to you on this.
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: I thought they did a good job of making extra
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: passes to the open man.
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: But they made him unguarded. They made him guarded, they
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: made him.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: As the shot clock was about to expire, they banked
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: him in, and as Tony Comedy said, on the bank shot,
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: good God, Almighty.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Christ shouldn't have gone there. But yeah, I did say that.
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: So I'll be interested. We haven't talked about it. I'll
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: be interested to see what you guys say. But I
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: think they make sixteen threes, you tip your cap and
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: move on. I mean, you can't keep up. You're not
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: gonna make sixteen threes and he can't keep up with twos.
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: It was good to see Trey Eagle Staff start to
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: get in a groove. He did not make three point shots,
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: but he made other shots eight to fifteen five rebounds forces,
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: so it was good to see him get into the flow.
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: We're starting to see why although we didn't we saw
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: this early, really why coach Hodge wanted Honor Huff. I
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: hope Tony he can hold up physically because he gets assaulted.
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: He gets assaulted and held. I mean, if it were football,
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: they'd be throwing flags on what happens with him, like
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: holding past interference. I mean, whatever it's And he's not
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: the biggest guy. He's still made in credible shots, Brad,
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: despite being what he's up against with these defenses.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: Overall, despite the losses, it was a great event. West
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: Virginia fans represent they show up and at times in
• 7:14
  Speaker 4: both games it felt like a home game. There were
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: so many Mountaineer fans yesterday, and a lot of that
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: is there's a lot of Mountaineer fans who took the
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: Hillibilly Highway and are in the North Carolina South Carolina
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: region and Mountainer fans could get to the game or
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: they have relatives down there. How many people do we
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: talk to this say, well, my kids moved down here.
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: So it was a great place to have that.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Kind of event. And the Shriners did a wonderful job.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: So it just was.
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: And I love the venue, man, I mean four thousand,
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: but at times it felt like there was fourteen thousand
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: in there gets loud in there, It gets loud in there,
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: and you're right on top of the game. So it
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: was just a really outstanding tournament. And then finally, I
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: know we talked about this Saturday, but it wasn't on
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: the podcast, but I wanted, I see, I'm gonna, if
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: I can get this, going to declare Clemson as West
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: Virginia's top non conference non traditional rival rival. Okay, because
• 8:12
  Speaker 4: for some reason, every top non conference non traditional rival rival. Okay,
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: they're not in the conference, they're not Maryland or not
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: Virginia Tech, they're not pitched. But for some reason, Brad
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: Clemson pops.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: Up every few years.
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: Right, you run into it, You run into and you
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: run into them, not just games, but in significant games.
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: Did seventy to thirty three win in the Orange Bowl
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: in twenty twelve, one of the significant wins a mountain
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: of football history. West Virginia's lost to Clemson needed on
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: Gator Bowl last game for Major Harris. The w women's
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: basketball team come from behind victory at the Colisseum in
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: the NCAA tournament years ago, the men winning the nit
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: against Clemson under John Bline, West Virginia hiding Rich Rodriguez
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: from Clemson the first time around. Then the Friday game,
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: which was a great game like a tournament atmosphere means
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: a tournament, like a postseason atmosphere.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: It was.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: It was a great atmosphere.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: It's a great atmosphere.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: Yesterday had more fans there.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: I think, I know it was. It was incredible.
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: So Clemson as West Virginia's top non conference not non
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: traditional rival.
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: Rifle. There you have it.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it was good.

  Speaker 1: coming up on Wednesday. Plus, we've got the details finally
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: on the Golden Blue Enterprise event that's going to take
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: place in Charleston the night before the Wake Forest game
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: on the fifth of December. We'll tell you about that.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: Details now available. Do you have any obvious observations before
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: you go into spreads on stats?
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: I do have an obvious observation, go that Xavier game
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: working in reverse here, That Xavier game is a game
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: where threes are worth more than twos. Obviously I thought
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: you were going to take that. It's crazy, though, when
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: you look at these numbers. West Virginia scored on forty
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: six percent of its possessions. Xavier scored on forty six
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: percent of its possessions.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: That's hard.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: Xavier was plus thirty points from three point range. West
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: Virginia plus eighteen points in the paint dominated inside, but
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: minus twelve if you take their best area. West Virginia's
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: best area game was one by ten.
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: Didn't you keep waiting. I kept waiting for them to miss.
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we had halftime. They blistering hot eight of thirteen
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: sixty two percent in the first half. So okay, okay,
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: all right, greate, half hang around. You were still within
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: shouting distance. That's great, They're going to cool off. They
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: did not. They got better eight of twelve in the
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: second half. And you guys mentioned it. And I don't
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: know if I'm in the spreads on SATs now, but.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Don't go there yet. We have to play the music
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: before good.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Go ahead, Yeah, no, go ahead and play the music.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: Play the music.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: You ready for that?
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: I thought you were just gonna make a general.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: Talk about it.
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: I just had the one free production meeting. Threes are
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: worth one of than twos.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: You can't catch up.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: So I checked the numbers.
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: I'll just go right to the numbers.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, ninety percent of the time, ninety percent of the
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: time a team cools eventually during the game. That was
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: the ten percent where they stayed hot the whole.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: Maybe more than ninety percent happened.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Spreads on Stats. Spreads on Stats brought to us by
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: the conleygue CPA group. They provide you, as a business
• 14:09

• 14:41
  Speaker 1: take a shoulder. You guys got coughts. I mean this
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: show we may as well do it from a nursing
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: homes that pretty soon what do you got?
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: Straight into the numbers? It was the at least I
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: walked away with a feel of two different games. I
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: do think there's an element as disappoined as you were
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: with yesterday's game. You do have to just kind of yeah,
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: the coaches won't because I know that'll drive Ross nuts
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: that that a team was able to make that many
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: threes against you. It's certainly the most that he's seen
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: as a head coach, so that'll make him creaz So
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: he can't just say, oh, oh well, they made a
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: bunch of shots, but I think we can, right. I mean,
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: that's one where you walk away and go, what are
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: you gonna do? There's a lot. I'll get into some
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: numbers there. You did some things that were good enough
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: to win that game. But a team's gonna drop sixteen
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: on you. That's a hard one.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: That's a Shulder shot.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: You lose ninety nine percent of time.
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: The klebson ones harder to agree to swallow, and it
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: will be harder to get over because you you look
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: at that one, and that was West Virginia was playing
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: tremendously well. You led that game for nearly twenty seven minutes.
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: That that was your game to go win and close out.
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: And and it was you know, we've been talking over
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: the last couple of days, Tony, it was. It was
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: one of a couple of areas and not all together.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: You make three more free throws, you probably win that game.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: You make another three or two, probably win that game.
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: Will eliminate one. Carter Welling. Three kids made five threes
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: all year. Carter Welling, and give him credit, this is
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: not even a fake. All due respect, all due respect
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: to that kid. He stepped out and banged two on
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: back to back possessions when he'd had three all season
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: going into that point, and then followed it up with
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: a layup inside. So that one, to me, though, that's
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: the hard one to swallow. That was just a player
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: two in a couple of different areas from walking out
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: of there with what would have been a really good win.
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: Let's go work and reverse again back to as Xavier
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: for just a second. Went into that game knowing they
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: were a bottom forty team and two point field goal percentage.
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: The whole story was guard the three. You got to
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: get him forced into miss threes. That's what the team
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: message was for the entire two days of preparation. They're
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: going to shoot threes. They're going to shoot volume threes.
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: They're gonna s keep shooting threes. Those numbers played out
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: nine of thirty from two point range. They shot thirty
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: percent from inside the arc and sixty four percent.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: From outside the arc.
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: I mean, just just mind blowing numbers.
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: Was Brad, do you have stats contested versus uncontested?
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: I do, but I don't have them all.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: That's well.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: I did look this morning. The bulk of them were
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: contested and guarded, so it was like they got a
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: ton of open shots. They made some wild ones. You
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: guys referenced that banked in shot. There was one that
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: was a scramble, the ball was getting kicked around. They
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: catch it in the far corner from us in front
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: of the Xavier bench, knocking a corner three there. It
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: was just some crazy stuff that went down. Nine of
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: thirteen from three from the left wing, nearly seventy percent
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: from the left wing three in the game. Just remarkable.
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: And I'll close with this on the three points made.
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: You mentioned that's the seventh time West Virginia's had sixteen
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: threes made against us SO school record made threes by Xavier.
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: But listen to these attempts for the other team. Xavier
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: had twenty five attempts, so it was it was almost
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: the percentage, maybe more so than the total makes. That's
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: mind blowing. You ready for this. In the other six games,
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: Cincinnati thirty eight attempts, Pitt thirty eight attempts, Kansas thirty
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: seven attempts, Bowling Green thirty two attempts, Kentucky thirty two attempts,
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: Temple thirty seven attempts, Xavier twenty five.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: That's what stand zone.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: They did it in twelve or thirteen less attempts than
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: most of those teams that you played.
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: Against, and most of those coming from three guys who
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: haven't had an even better percentage.
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: Fourteen to sixteen of their threes came from those three
• 18:25
  Speaker 3: guys that you mentioned. And they and we had mentioned
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: this with West Virginia scoring before they did it in
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: kind of a hand off the baton fashion. Trey Carroll
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: really good in that first half, carried him. Then Brandon
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: Laurent started matching up one on one with his former
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: teammate Trey Carroll and Carlton do a whole lot in
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: the second half. But Milichevic stepped up and he started
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: banging some in and then all right, of course was
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: the third guy that made those some other things that
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: you did well, and again that you did other things
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: well enough in a normal situation that you win that game.
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: Held him to just five fast break points. That's the
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: fewest they had all season. They'd been averaging more than thirteen.
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: Kept them off the offensive glass. West Virginia has now
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: moved into a top ten defensive rebounding team. They didn't
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: get much on the in the way of second chance points,
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: just five he held Clemson to even less the night before.
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: I mentioned the thirty percent shooting from two point range.
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: You did that. You held them below what they had
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: been shooting, and they hadn't been very good to begin with.
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: How about from the free throw line. They came into
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: that game shooting sixty nine percent as a team from
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: the free throw lines, they banged twelve of twelve. Yeah,
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: so just crazy. You got to tip your hat to them. Now,
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: that's one of those I'm still going back through it.
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: I've got that is the second or third most points
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: that ross Odge team has given up. So that's what
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: he's going to point to on both nights, is the
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: defensive part of that and the let's go to Clemson
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: now for a second. The jarring number against Clemson again,
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: I mentioned you led for nearly twenty seven minutes in
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: that game. You came out and we're playing that hobby
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: about as well as you can play it. Defensively, they
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: were really struggling. That was a team that was top
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: thirty nine nationally in offensive rebounding. You held them to
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: just two second chance points the entire game. You were
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: doing a great job there. But here's the number that's
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: stuck with Ross that he literally described it as inexcusable.
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: Twenty four points scored by Clemson in the final eight
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: thirty two, so almost three points a minute right there.
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: They turned it over just one time in that stretch.
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: Clemson led at the twelve to forty nine mark of
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: the first half, did not lead again until three point
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: fifty one of the second, So it was even you
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: were right there, but it was just that final few
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: minutes where it came undone. And I think one of
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: the interesting things if you look at that game, guys
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: we talked to Ross about this Tony, it was that
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: it was the last eight minutes where you couldn't get
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: enough stops. It was that three possession stretch where Carter
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: Welling took over the game scored eleven of the twelve
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: final points for Clemson. But you could also go back
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: in the first half when you had that eleven point
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: lead and you probably needed to stretch that to fifteen
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: or sixteen because Sin did what I didn't think a
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: team would do. Hoppy, I thought, and maybe this will
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: still be the case moving forward. We'll have to watch this.
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: If this West Virginia team got a double digit lead
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: in the final eight to ten minutes of a game.
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: I thought, that's a secret sauce, like then it's over
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: because you're going to be so patient offensively, you're going
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: to still be efficient. They're gonna have trouble getting enough
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: possessions to get back again because you're going to guard defensively.
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: And it just didn't happen. That was the perfect situation.
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: You're up ten with eight thirty two to go is
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: fifty six forty six And as Ross told the team,
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: he said, guys, fifty six points at that that's enough
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: to win the game. You gotta hold them under that.
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: That's enough to win the game. And they just scored
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: a couple too many times and you didn't get a
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: basket or two and he needed finally eight and a
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: half minutes and you let that game slip away. That's
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: the one that I'll go back to, even more so
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: than the Xavier one.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: Hmm, all makes sense. Yeah, So you come out of
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: there and now you go from five to oh to
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: five and two. So basketball, man, is a lot of games,
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: and this comes at a perfect time. I think this
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: week off that they have and now you know, now
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: you've seen different styles of play, you've played against bigger bodies.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: Now that's the third time they've played against truly bigger bodies.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: Pitt was the other one. And so coaches now will
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: dive in. I've got total confidence with this staff, the
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: tweaks that they'll make. Now now they really truly have
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: a good feel as to what they can and what
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: they cannot do. So are you bummed out that you
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: lost too? Obviously? Sure you are. And like Brad, I
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: mean the Clemson game, couldn't hold on to a lead.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: It was there. You get that one, and if you
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: split down there, you would have went, okay, fine, we
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: got one. Now we got let's go the Xavier game. Unfortunately,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: sometimes those happen. Sometimes you do that to other people,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: and it happens and you're sitting there and you're you're
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: giggling while you're making all these shots, and the poor
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: buddies over on the other side of going like they're
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: throwing their hands like what are we supposed to do?
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: It happens on both sides, and you got one of those.
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: So now it's as much about really honing in on
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: what you can do, what you can't do, what the
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: adjustments are going to be. Fortunately, we'll finally get a
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: full roster, and Jackson Fields is on deck to rejoin
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: the team after coming back from the hand surgery. So
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: you just got to clean yourself up and on you go.
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: Still a ton of opportunities here. You got wake Forest,
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: you got Ohio State. You still have your non con
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: games for the next month and then it's big boy time.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: But the big boy was good because we saw a
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: big boy yesterday and on Friday, and you need to
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: play that.
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, flip this around out of some positives. You're right
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: about Jackson Field's coming back. That'll help. That'll gives you
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: another big athletic body inside. You saw Chance more on
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: Friday against Clemson. What a difference team makes I feel
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: bad there, Tony. That's a wasted, unbelievable play, right that
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: happened for steel Basket. We'd be talking about that for
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: a long time had it turned into a win. But
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: Chance was really good, and I think people saw what
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: he can give this team. Times you mentioned Trey having
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: an offensive performance on Xavier that I think that gave
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: people a look at the skill set that he has.
• 24:09
  Speaker 3: Your right three didn't follow, but you can see he
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: made two guys look silly like as the kids say
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: that broke their ankles on a crossover move. That the
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: guy like his wobble, and he showed that he can
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: get to the basket, he can step in and hit
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: the mid range. Those threes are coming. He also initiated
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: some offense, had four assists, So that's the other part
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: of that. You're going to need a second and third
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: scorer that's consistent to get people off on her huff,
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: because you're right, you saw what they're going to do
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: to him. Clemson did this for a while. They just
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: flat face guarded him. They pulled the old Steph Curry
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: and just went and stood right next to him and
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: you took him out. Now, Westbury took advantage of that.
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: They went four on four and had some drives to
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: the basket and Clemson had to get out of that
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: tactic because Westford he made a pay. Their second tactic
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: was just to simply hug him, hug him, grab him,
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: hold him, chicken wing him when he was coming through screens.
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: And that's what other teams in this league, a physical league,
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: are going to do for you. And you still saw
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: his ability to get shots off, so he's still going
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: to do what he does. You need the chance moors
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: of the world to come along tracing with a great
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: performance offensively, that the stack on that and he just
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: kind of keep coming. And Meir Jenkins is a guy, right,
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: We've talked so much about him, a highly touted freshman
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: finding his way at this level. I thought he had
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: a really good tournament both nights. I thought he did
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: did some things that show you, Okay, this guy's going
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: to be okay too. He's really talented.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: You can tell that Anna Huff has had to learn
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: to shoot those tough shots because I'm sure he's been
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: roughed up all his life because he's not the biggest guy.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: And some of those shots he made over the weekend
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: were amazing.
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: Fall Away guy just pushed him, I mean, pretty incredible
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: and ego staff you guys know him. I don't know him,
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: but you would think that that helps his confidence Tony,
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: because he had his shot had not been fun, didn't
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: hit the three, but still scored.
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: So that's got to help him.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: It's coming. It's coming. He's played too much basketball and
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: this is just getting comfortable. And this is not a
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: total stunning surprise. I don't think. To Ross Hodge, we
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: talked about it before the season never began. It might
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: take him a month or so to get comfortable, because
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: we've said repeatedly on this program he's being asked to
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: play a different game than he's always played throughout his career,
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: and he is adjusting to that. And then once he
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: gets cranked up, obviously you teams have to make a
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: decision as to how they're going to guard on or
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: Huff differently if Trace and Eagle Staff becomes a factor.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: So yeah, it's it's coming. It's a process.
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: Bred.
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: I thought it was all going to be outside shot
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: for Eagle Staff and he was taken it to the whole.
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: Well, that's what he does. He really good a score.
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: He's a scorer. He's a he's a really talented shooter,
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: but he's a scorer. And that's what he was doing yesterday.
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: He's like, all right, fine, I'm not hitting an outside shot.
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: I'm going right to the basket on you. So it
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: was really good to see and you see the attention
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: he draws. That's how he ended with four assists in there.
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: So yeah, he's going to continue to get better and
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: he listen, maybe he has maybe his confidence waned a
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: little bit internally that hasn't shown externally at all. You
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: talk about a guy hasn't hung his head, has been
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: a great teammate, has been cheering, he has been guarding
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: extremely well, he's been getting on the go. So those
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: pieces continue to get together. You play really good teams,
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: that happens sometimes, right, it's the margin of error gets
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: thinner against those teams. And we saw that over the
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: last couple of days.
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: So off we go. They don't play again until Sunday
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: and at the Coliseum it'll be a three o'clock starter,
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: and again get through this stuff, and again opportunities are
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: coming up here against some good competition before league play
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: starts with the Buckeyes and with the Demon Deeks, who
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: are pretty solid and across the board. It's a process.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: It's a process. Big news, big news out of the
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: Big Twelve earlier today on that Players Era announcement kind
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: of wild. So the league has partnered with the Players Era,
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: and that means that going forward, starting next season, the
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Big Twelve Conference each year will take its top eight
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: teams the way that they finished the previous season, and
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: those eight teams will go into this tournament, which takes
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: place Thanksgiving weekend in Las Vegas thirty two team tournament,
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: and the Big Twelve each year will have eight of
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: its teams based on the order of finish the previous
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: season in that event. It's big news. It is it's
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: a big news thing and it's very much significant.
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: So that means so West Virginia obviously wants.
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: To get in that finish in the top eight, finish
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: in the top eight, But is that what does that
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: do for having this kind of tournament that we just came.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: Home from there? These are I mean, these multiple tournament
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: events probably are going to become less and less on
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: your schedule because they've made changes to The reason multi
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: team events were popular is because they would count as
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: one game even though you'd played more than one game,
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: So it was a way to get away from one
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: game count. Now they just extended the number, increase the
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: number of games that you can play, so you don't
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: need to hide behind a multiple tournament event. But that's
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: pretty significant of what they came with, and so you'll
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: hear more about that. But the Big Twelve guarantees itself
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: that they'll have eight teams in that field each and
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: every year.
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: Is it feasible to think, what are the odds today
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: West Virginia will be in the top.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: Eight this year.
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: Hard, It's hard as a beast. I mean, you're picked,
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: what eleventh, tenth, it's gonna be hard. You would have
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: to you would have to exceed expectations. Is it possible
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: going forward, Yeah, it's possible going forward.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: We'll see because there's a lot of teams. It's there's
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: some bunched up teams in here. When you start to
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: talk about I don't even throw Kansas in this mix
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: because who knows what Kansas will be based on whether
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: Darren Peterson returns soon or he's out a while. But
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: you've got teams like Baylor, Cincinnati, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, UCF, TCU,
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: Arizona State, Colorado, Utah, West Virginia. That's a big chunk
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: of that league. That's like, okay, short that out for
• 30:10
  Speaker 3: me right now. You can't tell me which one of
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: those is going to finish and give me the order.
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: No idea, you no idea, no idea. Houston, Arizona BYU
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: look look good. Texas Tech took an absolute drubbing at
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: the hands of Purdue, which was surprising to see. But
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: I'll still give Texas Tech they're they're up there.
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: JT.
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: Topping and Christian Anderson to the best in the league.
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: And Iowa State hasn't played anybody yet. That starts this
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: week for them, so we'll see what they have. But
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: that's that's a good what I just named twelve of
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: the sixteen teams right there that are throwing in a
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: hat and pulled out. It's going to be a wild,
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: wild league season.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: Again, big money, as you might imagine, for this tournament.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: Players ERA will commit no less than fifty million dollars
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: to Big twelve basketball in rights fees over the course
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: of the six years that they signed this deal. So
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: this will be the thing like it's you know, it's
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: not relegation, but it's going to be a carrot that's
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: waving in front of every program in your league every
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: year because that puts you into the forefront. This thing
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: will be obviously a massive media event.
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: Now we're going to have to know tie breakers for
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: the eighth spot. Sure, that'll become a talking.
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: Point now exactly how it now. But also what's your goal?
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: Your goal is do well in the league tournament and
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: get to the NCAA tournament. Now it's also get to
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: that tournament right.

• 44:15
  Speaker 3: Benson was there, he and Wren. Thank you to both
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: of them for coming.
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: His son Truman was it. There's Hoppy. He was looked good.
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: Very there's having a little fun there, good time. How
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: about Director of Athleticsren Baker was in there. Took a
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: couple of good shots at Hoppy, which we kind of enjoyed.
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: So it was a lot of fun that.
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: The Alumni Association, Golden Blue Enterprises did a great job
• 44:36
  Speaker 3: of putting that thing on. That was packed, guys, Oh
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: it was. It was a great little indoor outdoor. We
• 44:40
  Speaker 3: had that whole back patio there. So thanks to everybody
• 44:42
  Speaker 3: that came. There were a ton of folks from South Carolina.
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: Mountaineer fancy, yeah, it came over. It's great to see everybody,
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: So thank you.
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: A lot of fun. From the text line, being from
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: beautiful Monroe County, it's a very easy life except one
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: issue that puts me forty five minutes from Blacksburg with
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: the high of James Franklin still thinking about his firing.
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: The excitement from a lot of my friends is building. However,
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: glaring issue with today's game is the unrealistic expectations. For instance,
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: how in the Nitney Lion do you go eleven and two,
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: ten and three, thirteen and three and then get fired
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: the next season. I'm not quite sure, but I do
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: know the coaching circus will only continue to grow worse.
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: I'm thankful for coach Rodd and our program. We haven't quit.
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Things are going to continue to build. Prayers to a
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: wonderful season, beautiful Thanksgiving to you and yours, and we'll
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: see in Charleston for the holiday hoop Fest DJ Monroe County,
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: thank you very much. Yeah, they'll be a little They
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: got to crank it over there Virginia Tech right now.
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he was at the ballgame. Yeah, last ball game.
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: Got a forty one million dollar deal plus nine million
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: dollars from Penn State on the restructured buyout, so he
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: got himself fifty million dollars. It's good life, Texter. Three guys, longtime,
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: first time Texter. I was walking into my office the
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: other day. Gentleman stops me and he says, oh, I'm sorry,
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: I thought you were Ren Baker out of the corner
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: of my eye, to which the guy with whom I
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: was about to meet, replied, Yeah, maybe Ren Baker's before photo.
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: He then took a picture and texted it to me
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: to prove his point. I'm trying to decide if I
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: should be offended. Please help me decide if I should
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: still call this fella a friend.
• 46:21
  Speaker 3: So there he is.
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: That was his pre That was his pre Wren picture.
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: Hop thoughts.
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure I understand.
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: He's saying that guy looks like Reren before Ren lost weight.
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know.
• 46:35
  Speaker 4: Maybe I'm just so used to seeing Wren, who looks
• 46:37
  Speaker 4: now lean and I mean looks.
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: Great, fighting machine. Yeah, looks like a fighting machine. Absolutely, Yeah, No,
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: don't mean I mean yeah, I mean there's some similarities.
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: That guy's got two legs, Rent two, Wren's got two
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: two arms. Yeah.
• 46:50
  Speaker 4: Well, if somebody, if somebody's coming up to you and
• 46:52
  Speaker 4: they're commenting on your weight, yeah, get out on my face, man, Yeah,
• 46:57
  Speaker 4: what are you talking about?
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: Michael and Clodin writes, Listen.
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: You're supposed to read this why it says, please don't share?
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: Which one the Michael and clodon.
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: Where do you see that?
• 47:10
  Speaker 3: The last sentence?
• 47:11
  Speaker 2: Oh, please don't share, but please don't share my opinion
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: if we can't.
• 47:16
  Speaker 3: But my opinion is, oh yeah, don't yeah, don't be
• 47:20
  Speaker 3: just for you to read.
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: Don't read well.
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: Stop writing stuff that doesn't get out in the air. Okay, fine, gentlemen.
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: I don't want to exaggerate my contribution to landing the
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: commitment from Kevin Brown to the Mountaineers, but as an
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: employee of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, proud alumn of WV,
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: I've been faithfully driving my vehicle with the flying West
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: Virginia plate and hitch covers on the streets of Harrisburg
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: in the hopes that Kevin would follow country roads to Morgantown.
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: My only piece of advice for the youngster is to
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: quickly learn it's West Virginia University, not University of West Virginia.
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: I recall sitting in the stands as a student when
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: the stadium booed James Earl Jones for saying University of
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: West Virginia. I couldn't believe we booed Darth Vader anyway,
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: so excited to have coach rode back, let's go Mountain
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: ears matt in Central PA. I'd say this with the
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: level of recruits both in basketball and football. I'll take
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: a University of West Virginia. If I can get the
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: young man, I'll fix the WVU later. Not a problem,
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: whatever you want to call us. Nathan Charleston, South Carolina,
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: first great senior All Saturday, A lot of fun about basketball.
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: I'm not discouraged. Friday learning moment for everyone involved. Against
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: a good Clemson team last night, one of those nights
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: you ran into a hot team. Like y'all say, the
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: team is allowed to improve, and I think it will.
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: Two concerning things seem to do a lot of isolation
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: and at times we drive it in and just stop.
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: These things seem to bog down the offense side note,
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: let me know where you guys ate while you were here.
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: I know y'all had some good food, you know.
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: One note on that there is a lot of isolation
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: and that's by design. And Friday night you saw at
• 48:44
  Speaker 3: a bunch with Jasper Floyd and there were times when
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: it worked very well. You're backing down so a couple things.
• 48:48
  Speaker 3: You're working clock at that point, you're trying to bleed
• 48:51
  Speaker 3: the shot clock there to give the other team limited possessions.
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: It also forces the defense to identify what you're doing.
• 48:58
  Speaker 3: If you stay one on one against you, there's a
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: lot of times with his strength he's going to be
• 49:02
  Speaker 3: able to get in and finish. If you have to
• 49:04
  Speaker 3: bring a second defender over, that's going to leave a
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: shooter open on the perimeter. So it's also a way
• 49:09
  Speaker 3: to flesh out defensively what you're trying to do there.
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: By the way, Friday night, coach Hodge very engaged, very engaged.
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: What does that mean?
• 49:20
  Speaker 4: I mean he was he was working it, he was working,
• 49:23
  Speaker 4: he was having and I think we talked about this
• 49:26
  Speaker 4: before the season, how how was he going to approach officials?
• 49:29
  Speaker 4: And he says, you know, he wants to have discussions,
• 49:31
  Speaker 4: he wants to have relationship, but he's not just not
• 49:33
  Speaker 4: going to bark at him all the time. He was
• 49:35
  Speaker 4: very animated Friday with some of the officiating.
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: Rightfully so.
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: And you had a guy that had a horrific night,
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: just bad, you know what.
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: It's yeah, let's leave it there.
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: Made What really makes you angry is when an officials
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: having a horrific night, but he doesn't quite realize that
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: he's having a horrific night.
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: That's bad.
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: Uh. Pete Thamil didn't ask me anything On Twitter Okay,
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: did you put that graphic up? Please? Taking questions here today?
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: Ask away. Guy writes in how do how do you
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: keep getting West Virginia's stories before? Hoppy and Pete wrote
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: secretly Tony Kreedy leaks them all to.
• 50:22
  Speaker 2: Me like him.
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, one of these days, one of these days your
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: paths will cross. Yeah.
• 50:32
  Speaker 2: He puts me to shame and my time is over. Yeah,
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: and he's just he's peaking a texter.
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: Hey there, it's Joe from bo as quick question, what
• 50:44
  Speaker 1: happened to the jumbo package for the football team? Why
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: wasn't it utilized in the latest game against Arizona State.
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: So that's a fair question. They put it away for
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: a while before they made Curtis jim as a running back,
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: But they had Curtis Jones as a running back against
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: Arizona State, So you would think because Ty Edwards was
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: the reason why they were using it, if you remember,
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: that's when they did it against Pitt So you would
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: think maybe maybe even this week, if you got a
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: short yardage, you could put Curtis Jones back there as
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: the big back and then all those big boys nine
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: offensive lineman, quarterback and a big running back. Texter I
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: was watching the program about the Buffalo Bills, and you
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: guys are right. There's always a connection, no matter where
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: you are or what you look under. So if you
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: see that guy right there, he's got a flying WV
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: on the right side of his chest there hoppy below
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: his armpit.
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: Of course he does. Why wouldn't he?
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Texter three guys Quinn from quinn Wood, probably not
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: his real name. Last episode multiple Texters giving free passes
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: to their kids for Sweet Caroline. I thought i'd share
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: my story from the pit football game as all after
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: when my daughter goes down to the wall gives high
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: fives to our players as they go by. Our seats
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: are near the visitors tunnel. After the win against Pitt,
• 52:09
  Speaker 1: she went down to the wall. Unbeknownst to her, I
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: was a little bit behind her. I then noticed her
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: arm extent as she gave Nardoozi the bird his entire
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: walk down the wall. To this day, to this day,
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: she does not know I saw it. Obviously, geez, she
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: got a free pass.
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: Can you believe what Pitt's doing rolling? I mean football?
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, surprising season, it is surprising. Yeah, almost gave that
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: one away there against the Rambling Wreck on the.
• 52:39
  Speaker 2: Well a yard return for.
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: Help him hit basketball not rolling?
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: Not rolling?
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: No ad lost her against Quinnipiac.
• 52:49
  Speaker 3: Hurts West Virginia like Handley a business against Quinnepiac.
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: There, yeah, text her all capital letters, warning, emotional postgame text.
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: I drove the whole way to the in law house
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: listening to the game. I've got a bruise on my
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: thigh from repeatedly punching it in the car. I cannot
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: believe that on tonight, of all nights, I have to
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: sleep in this hell hole.
• 53:11
  Speaker 2: Jeez.
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: So apparently he's got Clemson in laws. There's the house.

  Speaker 3: There's a lot of Clemson stuff in that house.
• 53:37

  Speaker 1: It's the Early Orange House.
• 53:39
  Speaker 4: They are West Virginia's biggest non conference, non traditional rival rival.
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: From now until December. The yeah, I'll go with it.

• 56:03
  Speaker 3: Eric, Well, that's a good point.
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: South Jersey last one, Devin and Goshen. I'm not saying
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: it's Hoppy's fault we lost, but I am saying that
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: he's been in attendance at the last three games and
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: we've lost each one of them.
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: Causation correlation, that's true. At you can.
• 56:23
  Speaker 4: I mention a couple of things absolutely other things. Yeah,
• 56:27
  Speaker 4: two things. One is that the wv men's and women's
• 56:32
  Speaker 4: soccer teams had great years, and the men's team lost
• 56:34
  Speaker 4: yesterday to high point three to two. Season comes to
• 56:37
  Speaker 4: an end, another great season for head coach Dan Stratford,
• 56:41
  Speaker 4: end of the career brand for one of the.
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: Greats, Marcus Caldera.
• 56:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Caldera, two time All American, might be a third
• 56:48
  Speaker 4: on the way, three time All Conference, current Sun Belt
• 56:52
  Speaker 4: Conference Player of the Year, Offensive Player of the Year,
• 56:55
  Speaker 4: twenty twenty four Academic All American of the Year. Third
• 56:58
  Speaker 4: in WVU history with forty two career goals and program
• 57:03
  Speaker 4: record seventeen game winning goals.
• 57:05
  Speaker 2: Brad one of the all time greats.
• 57:07
  Speaker 3: Seventeen game winning seventeen.
• 57:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, So Marcus caldera career comes to an end. But
• 57:12
  Speaker 2: what a career for him.
• 57:13
  Speaker 3: Interviewed him a bunch over the years on Sports sign
• 57:15
  Speaker 3: Really fun guy to talk to. He was terrific, no doubt.
• 57:18
  Speaker 2: One other note. So Thursday night then an event at
• 57:21
  Speaker 2: the Mylon Park for Don Neeland.
• 57:23
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, honoring Don Neeland, who, by the way,
• 57:25
  Speaker 4: turns ninety next month. And I tell you what did
• 57:29
  Speaker 4: I was happen to be the Masters ceremonies because Tony
• 57:31
  Speaker 4: you weren't available, and so I filled it. But former
• 57:36
  Speaker 4: players Jeff Hostetler, Kevin Cochin, Mike Logan, Fred Small's, Mike
• 57:40
  Speaker 4: Collins were all there. Brian Jose Wax in a video,
• 57:43
  Speaker 4: Bill Krolavitch sent a video. Dwight Wallace was there. You
• 57:45
  Speaker 4: know what stood out to me about all this players
• 57:47
  Speaker 4: brand is not one of them. And they spoke anywhere
• 57:50
  Speaker 4: from like five to twenty minutes. Not one of them
• 57:53
  Speaker 4: mentioned a game, a particular game. What they all talked
• 57:57
  Speaker 4: about was coach Neeland as a person, how he impacted
• 58:01
  Speaker 4: their lives, the lessons that they learned from Donnelan, and
• 58:05
  Speaker 4: that program that they use have used in life to
• 58:08
  Speaker 4: become successful. Because all these guys are successful and sometimes
• 58:12
  Speaker 4: in these and you guys gets into the players. But
• 58:13
  Speaker 4: we get caught up as we should in the games
• 58:16
  Speaker 4: and in the outcomes and things like that. But these coaches,
• 58:19
  Speaker 4: if they're doing their job, like don neland did as
• 58:22
  Speaker 4: well as anyone better than most, have impact lives. And
• 58:28
  Speaker 4: I just was taken aback by how much those players
• 58:31
  Speaker 4: were deeply moved and affected by their personal relationship with
• 58:34
  Speaker 4: don Neilan.
• 58:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, I think that gets passed over a
• 58:37
  Speaker 3: little bit now, but super important part of the part
• 58:39
  Speaker 3: of the process. Certainly don't talk about it nearly as
• 58:44
  Speaker 3: much as we did back in the don Nalan era. Yeah, right, right,
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: You just don't hear that as much anymore, No.
• 58:48
  Speaker 4: Because it's all about because there's a lot more player
• 58:50
  Speaker 4: movement those kinds of things. But Tony, those guys, and
• 58:53
  Speaker 4: you know, all those guys, and all those guys have
• 58:55
  Speaker 4: been very, very successful. And Fred Small's was very poignant
• 58:58
  Speaker 4: because he came in. He's spoken and he says, I
• 59:00
  Speaker 4: was from the streets. He says, where I came from,
• 59:03
  Speaker 4: you didn't talk to people. People didn't talk to you.
• 59:06
  Speaker 4: I came here and people talk to you and don
• 59:08
  Speaker 4: nieland and of course Neiland told me later said Neil
• 59:10
  Speaker 4: Fred Smalls drove me crazy.
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: But Fred Small's had a very.
• 59:15
  Speaker 4: Successful career in security for celebrities and now is an
• 59:19
  Speaker 4: ordained minister. And he says, I don't have the words
• 59:22
  Speaker 4: to tell you what don Neeland meant in my life.
• 59:23
  Speaker 4: Think about that for a second.
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean most of the time when these guys
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: are out of it, they say that the games are
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: like secondary. When they're here, obviously it's the only thing
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: that they think about. But after it's all over, it's
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: the relationships.
• 59:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: And Don constantly gets phone calls from former players back
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: those days of Bowling Green. They just hey, coach, just
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: want to say hi, because they change it, you know.
• 59:45
  Speaker 4: Can I give you a coach moment too? Because he's
• 59:47
  Speaker 4: still the coach, right. And So there was a wonderful
• 59:50
  Speaker 4: event at Myland Park, Ugleish summers at a wonderful job.
• 59:53
  Speaker 4: But it was fairly long, a lot of people speaking.
• 59:56
  Speaker 4: The Senator was there, Senator Justice and a lot of
• 59:59
  Speaker 4: other people. So, and the players are supposed to go
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 4: five to seven minutes, and you know, somewhat a little
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 4: bit longer. And Donnelon is on stage the whole time.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 4: So about halfway through so I'm coming back up to
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 4: the microphone after somebody spoke and coach is sitting about
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 4: where you are, Brad, and he says, hey, hop you
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 4: tell them it's five. They're supposed to go five minutes.
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 4: They're going too long.
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: That's my guy.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 4: Anybody that's the coach follow what the coach. So it
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 4: was it was a wonderful event, and uh, it was
• 1:00:30
