• 0:52
  Speaker 1: be with us tomorrow and then next week, I think
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: on Monday, maybe on Tuesday. Author Tom Doyle joins me.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: His book is called Ringo, A fab life on the
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Beatles drummer who will turn eighty six in July. I
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: know it makes me feel a little, but that's just
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: because I am John Thornton is here. Uh, you have
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: a front seat for Bucky Ball this last year. I
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: think we were all surprised. Uh, not only how he
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: was able to put things together in a very short
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: amount of time, uh, but just the style of play
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: and and and how he went about it. Give me,
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: give me a sense from from your perspective.
• 1:36
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: So I had no prior knowledge of Bucky right until
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: he came here, and then the first time I ever
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: met him or saw him was his press conference. And
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: so you're just you know, sitting back and trying to
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: get a feel for what it's going to be like.
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: And obviously the style of plays very foreign to what
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: somebody my era.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Or yeah I did. Yeah, it's a little different.
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah, And you know, we had things like loyal A
• 2:00
  Speaker 5: Marrimount when they ran like you said, and Sonny Allen's
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: did when he's in me and all that stuff. But uh,
• 2:06
  Speaker 5: pressing for full pressing for job different. So it was
• 2:10
  Speaker 5: fun for me to watch it be implemented in practice
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: in the summertime, to see him in action, to see him,
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: and I think it was really kind of a luxury
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: for me because everybody on that floor, with the exception
• 2:24
  Speaker 5: of Josh Holloway and but you know, but he had
• 2:27
  Speaker 5: assistant coaches that obviously knew the system, so he's teaching
• 2:30
  Speaker 5: it from from square one, and so it was fun
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: for me to watch and see how it all fits
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: and and and it's it doesn't do it justice when
• 2:39
  Speaker 5: you think it's just fast placed, shoot a lot of
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: threes and place. It's way more sophisticated than what most
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: people could understand, really, from changing defenses within possession to
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: how you're going to pick up full court and what
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: your rules are and what you do and so, you know,
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: just saying things like that makes it sound complicated, But
• 2:59
  Speaker 5: he's of a communicator and a teacher. And when I
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: say that his staff this way and to see that
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: be implemented and which this then time, which I think
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: you know as well as anybody. It's it's distracting as
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: far as what you have to deal with as far
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: as the teaching side of it, and you're under the
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: gun to get it implemented in a short period of
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: time with a bunch of guys from all over.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: The world new players. Yeah, but it's been like that
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: every year.
• 3:28
  Speaker 6: Yes, but that's what's going to be. So some coaches
• 3:30
  Speaker 6: I think are suited better for this, not that it's
• 3:32
  Speaker 6: going to be a challenge every year. It will be, yes,
• 3:35
  Speaker 6: but some.
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: Coaches and styles of players more suited for this than others.
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: And I think his style of play also lends itself
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: to being popular with people.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Okay, it's certainly popular with with with fans. I mean,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: you know, it's it's fun to watch. I mean, anybody
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: is going to score one hundred a game and and
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: cover you all over the floor. How could that not
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: be fun? Right? What what I ask is the players
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: that want to buy and to play like that, right,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: they're asking. He's asking a lot of them, right, a
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: lot and so. And then because of that style, some
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: guys just you can't play forty minutes a game doing that.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: You just can't do it right.
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: If you do it, if you want to do what
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: he wants to do, you're not capable. Yes, But if
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: you look at it though, and I've noticed this over
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: the course of the year, if you look at minutes played,
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: if you're a player and you're in shape, like you
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: have to be to do what he wants you to do,
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: and you can't fake conditioning exactly.
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: You got to be there. And so if you.
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: Look if you're you'll get twenty five, twenty seven, sometimes
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: twenty eight minutes a game.
• 4:45
  Speaker 6: That's a lot, you know.
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: And if you go look at other rosters, sure there's
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: guys that are going thirty two to thirty four whatever.
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: But if you have eleven guys, twelve guys that are
• 4:57
  Speaker 5: on all on the same page of what you're trying
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: to get done, you feed off one another and everybody
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: you don't know on and given night, if it's going
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: to be your night, yes, did you get more minutes
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: or you have you know, it's one thing that you know,
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: the notoriety of scoring points is a big deal, absolutely,
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: but there's also things that contribute for teams winning. And
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: what's even a bigger deal is your team to have success. Yes,
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: and you scrow all points in the world, but if
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: you don't.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Win, it doesn't matter, right, And.
• 5:26
  Speaker 5: So his his ability to convey that message and get
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: people to do it. And it didn't start day one,
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: and we had some bumps in the road early, but
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: then once they got rolling. It was fun for me
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: was to think that people, very good coaches in a
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: very tough league, they think they have it figured out,
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: but they don't, and they towards the end of SEC
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: play you know, obviously, I think not to diminish the
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: level of caliber of players we had, but talent and
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: depth got us. And I think that we had that
• 6:04
  Speaker 5: little blip, not a blip, but we had a little
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: you know, uh decline and then revamped ourselves. Yes again,
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: so I mean, but the style of play is something
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: that people I compare it to the veer football.
• 6:17
  Speaker 6: Yes, because if you.
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: Don't see the veer every day in practice, you're not
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: ready for that one anomaly.
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: Right, and you go cover the veer.
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: Yes, well, I think that's what people found out with
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: the way Bucky and Texas in and played this year.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, when you have two days to prepare us.
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: Not long enough and they go, we're gonna pick them
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: up full court and we'll have the scout team put
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: in full court pressure.
• 6:37
  Speaker 6: That's not close getting ready to face.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: And I thought we were playing Rick Barnes at Tennessee,
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: and I meant, you know, high school.
• 6:45
  Speaker 6: Yes, great player, Yes, you're going to draft.
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: Got a five second calling him just inbtting the ball
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: in the first pace exactly.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: They got several five seconds sack game early in the.
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: Game, and we lose the double overtime to them. You know,
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: but so playing Alabama tough.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: As we did on the road, as a heck of
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: a game.
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: Being Georgia beaten Austin Auburn, I mean, what a remarkable start.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: So we've looked at at players that that he's bringing
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: in this year in the portal and and he's he's
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: bringing in some really good players and and he's had all,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: you know, self a season to get ready to do that.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: Then you look around at what the league has done
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: in general, and they were down a little bit last year,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: but they're going to be down compared. We're always going
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: to compare them, right, I mean, I don't think this
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: league will ever. It was unbelievable, you know, the talent
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: and everything kind of came together right that one season.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: So I don't think it's fair every year to compare
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: to that year. But it was doubt a little bit.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: There wasn't probably a great team, you know, this year,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: there were some good teams. But you look at what
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: some of these other teams also have brought in, you know,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: what what Kyl is doing, what Rick Barnes is doing.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's just like Austin, It's gonna be a fight, right.
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: It will be And I do.
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: Like, obviously he's been here a year, staff's been here
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: a year. Yep, there's a product now they know what
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: it's about. But you know, like like I said earlier,
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: there was nobody that knew the system Halloween, a few coaches. Well,
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: now you got Bacho, Zach, Chris McDermott and Jamie Vinson.
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: There's at least five guys. Six guys that have been
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: here will help in that transition as they come in.
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: But the other part of it is it's coaching, and
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: it's believability, and it's trust that you can plug and
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: play people from other programs into a style.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Of man And that's the thing, right because as we've mentioned,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: every single year, you have to rebuild a team. Now, yeah,
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: you do, you do.
• 8:52
  Speaker 6: It's almost like junior college.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: To do well. Okay, that's fair. That's a fair assessment.
• 8:56
  Speaker 6: You gotta if you got two semesters out of a
• 8:59
  Speaker 6: kiss semester.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: You know that was yeah, big, that's that's fair.
• 9:03
  Speaker 6: And obviously so is it.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Is it harder now on the coaches? That's probably a
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: stupid question.
• 9:09
  Speaker 5: I say, you have to be you have to be
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: built to do this. Now, that's why you've seen so
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: many of these guys.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Quit yes, because it's not it's yeah, it's like I
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: can't do this.
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: And then it's NonStop. You know, they have a little
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: bit of a pause in the summer, but it's a
• 9:23
  Speaker 5: very tiny window. And then the fact that you're you're
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: tasked to do so much and keeping track of what's
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: going on, no matter you're trying to win and win games.
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: But at the same time, you can and you never
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: can lose sight of recruiting.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: But you've got to recruit your own players.
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: Now, recruit your own players back, hold on to your
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: own players, and you know, be discerning the entire time
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: of what you need to get better as you go.
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: And I think they do a really good job of
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: knowing what fits in the top style of play they
• 9:52
  Speaker 5: want to play well.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: You have to and that a big part of it,
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: without a doubt. I mean, you can't just bring uh
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: even if you can't just go get a thirty point
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: guy if he expects to be the guy and take
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: all the shots right in this system.
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: And then, as you know, defense only works when you
• 10:12
  Speaker 5: have five or eleven doing what you're supposed to be
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: doing exactly one guy out there, not pulling his Yeah,
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: pulling the rope in the area that it's not gonna work.
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: And one thing about Bucky, it's non negotiable. I don't
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: care who you are, you're gonna and he does it
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: in a positive way.
• 10:28
  Speaker 7: Yeah, but you've seen him, Oh yeah, absolutely up in
• 10:31
  Speaker 7: the middle of the season.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: Uh, he'll start somebody. But hey, it's it's all up front.
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: You know what the parameters are.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: For you to have success, you know, as long as
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: you're consistent. I think you know that some players want
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: to be coached hard, right they do. Uh, some players
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: want disciplined, right, but but they want it consistent right, fair.
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: Well, and what's fair? Also talking about what's tasked of coaches,
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: nowadays they have more of I guess resources with the
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: number of coaches, with the things that they do.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: Good, gosh, there's so many coaches there are, you know,
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: because more coaches and players.
• 11:10
  Speaker 6: It's come a long ways now, It's all it's deceiving too.
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: Just because they look like a coach doesn't mean they're
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: not a manager.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: How would how would you what would you do to
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: fix the system if you were the czar? How would
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: you fix the system? Right now? As it is? In
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: every regard. It's it's broken transfer portal for sure. Let's
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: start there.
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: Okay, you can transfer, and if a coach leaves or
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: gets fired, you could be automatically eligible.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: I like that.
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you sign him with somebody and he's not coaching. Yes,
• 11:40
  Speaker 5: you can leave and beyond Yes, that's the no brainer
• 11:42
  Speaker 5: than me. Yes, if you transfer for any other reason,
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: it would be a city year.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: You'd have to sit out like like used to, like, yeah,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: it'll shut the door.
• 11:52
  Speaker 6: On the portal and nobody's want to sit anymore.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: Correct.
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: But if you coach leaves, yeah, go yeah, but it's
• 11:59
  Speaker 6: ridiculous to played for five different schools, you know.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: And well what I think it's ridiculous is having twenty
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: five and twenty seven year old guys that have played
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: eight years.
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it depends on but if Buckets signs one tomorrow,
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: I'll take him.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean that's that's I mean, that's that's what
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: you're competing, that's what you're competing to get, right.
• 12:16
  Speaker 6: But the other part of it is too how about
• 12:18
  Speaker 6: just having four years of eligibility, what.
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: How about how about how about how about giving how
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: about giving them five years? Okay, okay, five years to
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: play for.
• 12:31
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's fine. I mean that's what that's what that's
• 12:33
  Speaker 6: what it used to be.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: That's what it used to be.
• 12:35
  Speaker 6: That's right. And then there's medical hardships. Yeah, I get that,
• 12:38
  Speaker 6: and you know.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: What, you can be very but that's why you get
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: five years to play for it.
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: The parameters of what that medical hardship is needs to
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: be more defined. Okay, how many games?
• 12:48
  Speaker 6: And then I think it's case by case what type
• 12:50
  Speaker 6: of injury it is. I get that, Yeah, but to
• 12:53
  Speaker 6: have six or even seven years, I mean it's nuts.
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: It's crazy.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: Well, and why would you want to leave now if
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: you're good enough? Because you're getting paid. Well, I know
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: that's why they're staying taking.
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: Money and that, you know, especially in basketball, because you know,
• 13:09
  Speaker 5: if you're not if you're not a lottery.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: Pick, you're not exactly anything exactly.
• 13:13
  Speaker 6: So if you're not a lottery pick, ain't playing?
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Yes, Yes, I mean I mean college life's pretty good.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: They treat them pretty well. And you were you were
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: a guy who was honored for academics as well as
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: athletics when you were here. One thing that's happened, which
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: we talk about all the time, is you never hear
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: anything about academics anymore, Right, you just don't. You don't know.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: You don't hear anything about academics. You don't hear about
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: anybody staying eligible. You don't hear anybody being penalized for
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: not going to class. A lot of these guys who
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: are twenty six and twenty seven, God bless them. I
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: think they've probably gotten some kind of a degree. They
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: don't even have to go to school.
• 13:58
  Speaker 6: No, it's the wild West, is what it is.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: Yes, it is. It's worse than professional. Professional has more rules.
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: When I when I think is gonna be, I'll tell
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: you this is an exception to me, I would think,
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: and I'm gonna go down this one little path here. Uh.
• 14:13
  Speaker 6: But yes, that that was a perfect fit for him here,
• 14:17
  Speaker 6: no doubt.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: And he's had he's been around, right, he has been around.
• 14:20
  Speaker 5: But and of course maybe it's just because we like
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: the way he played yea, the double doubles.
• 14:25
  Speaker 6: That he stacked up.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, career leader in a season for.
• 14:28
  Speaker 6: Texas A and M.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: It's a lot of people that he passed a lot
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: of people, and.
• 14:33
  Speaker 6: It was undersized for his position, but he gave it
• 14:36
  Speaker 6: every ounce of energy, every night, every night.
• 14:39
  Speaker 5: He wanted to win, and he wanted Whether he wanted
• 14:41
  Speaker 5: to win for Texas A and M or his team
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: or his mama, I don't know, but he wanted to win.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: And I love that, right, and uh, you better have
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: a few of those guys.
• 14:49
  Speaker 6: And he will have. He will be celebrated at Texas
• 14:52
  Speaker 6: A and M. When he's forty years old, he will,
• 14:54
  Speaker 6: I hope. So how many people that have.
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: Been vagabonds all over the world, how they're gonna choose
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: where there.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: Who they identify with?
• 15:05
  Speaker 6: What is it Kentucky or yeah?
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, they're gonna miss out, yes,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: no doubt.
• 15:12
  Speaker 6: You know, money's money, I get it.
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: We were talking about this, uh Monday with with Ksey Concepts.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: Great kid, the super kid, right is he an Aggie? Well,
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: I mean he was here a year. You know what
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: I'm saying. I mean, you grew you grew up, John,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: You you knew you were going four years, right, You're
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: you're going to play four years? Right? I mean, that's it.
• 15:36
  Speaker 6: And it's just so foreign to the old guys like us,
• 15:39
  Speaker 6: and everybody's gonna say it is No.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Hey, I'm not whinding about players getting paid at all. Uh,
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: I've never whined about that. If the n C Double
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: A would have done it right, we wouldn't be in
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: this position. They were so far behind and and you know,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: so stubborn and kept going to the courts. And now
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: they're getting their rears beat in the courts because that's
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: totally changed. So it's all their fault. Okay, there could
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: be a way. These guys were making money, maybe not
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: five million a year, but they could be making good
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: money for a college student. And now the cat's out
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: of the bag. You can't put the genie back in
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: the bottle, right. You can't come to a kid who's
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: making four million and go, oh, I'm sorry, the rules
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: have changed. Next year, we only pay you one hundred
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars because that's the system. Now, well that's too late.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: So you've got to figure out how do we go forward, right,
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: how do we afford it? And what are the parameters
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: and the rules? And we don't have people doing that
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: right now.
• 16:44
  Speaker 6: They are, but they're all over the place, and they're.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: All over the place litigation. I get that, But you
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: can't be scared. You can't make a decision going, well,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: they'll take us to court. Well, Okay, let's go right.
• 16:58
  Speaker 6: No, And that's the thing. There's a model out there
• 17:00
  Speaker 6: and the reason should But.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Who's going to lead that.
• 17:05
  Speaker 6: I don't know where that's coming from.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't hear John. I don't hear anything
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: from presidents and chancellors anymore, do you know? But we
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: were always told by the NC double A, well, they
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: have to make the decisions. And we had a few
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: presidents that would stand up and go, well, we're going
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: to have put a committee together and we're going to
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: get this cleaned up. I don't hear from any of
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: them anymore.
• 17:25
  Speaker 6: Same leadership stuck their head in the sand when it
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: was time.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: They didn't make a decision.
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: And that's the thing about it also in that being
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: part of the NC double A is voluntary, right, you
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: don't have this apart, but it's a whole lot of
• 17:38
  Speaker 5: money and tied up in it.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: Yes, and so well they still control the basketball and.
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: Then so what happens is when you have the purse
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: strings like that, you would think that that would be
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: the ability to keep but they're so tied up with
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: you know, the the litigation thing that's happening every time
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: they make a.
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: Ruling right that they won't make a decision. They can't well,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: and so so football is on its own right now.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: I still I still think sooner rather than later, we're
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: going to have forty or fifty teams. It's gonna be
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: like the NFL. There'll be divisions. You may be able
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: to keep the conferences. I don't know about that. It
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: depends on what television does.
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: I don't know that where this is going, But not
• 18:21
  Speaker 5: about conferences when it used to be, when he used
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: to know what the Pacific Coast Conference was.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I still can't. I can't fathom. I cannot.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: I still don't have Oregon and Southern cal and UCLA
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: and the Big ten. I just it makes no sense
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: when you.
• 18:42
  Speaker 6: Talk about student athlete welfare, that's what always.
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: And they're flying all over the country.
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: They were supposed to getting an education, and you're spending
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: your one week one night, you're on the East Coast next.
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: It's nuts. It's just that it's just out of control.
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: But I don't I don't know who's going to step
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: forward and make a decision right committee. I want to
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: be bizarre. I wouldn't be on a committee. I'm not
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: gonna be with fifteen other people in fifteen opinions. I
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: would be the commissioner, and I would make decisions, and
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: I would be a benevolent dictator and I would clean
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: it up. Okay, so you need you need somebody. You know,
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: in football, they've said, hey, Nick Saban needs to step forward,
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: and he would be a guy like that would be perfect, right,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: He's smart, he has the game at heart. I think
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: he has most of the players interests at heart, right,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: And you need somebody to make that choice. But you
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: have to, John, You have to have people that are
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: willing to make that right. Now, all these conferences, they
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: just they want everything right, they want it all, and
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: they're not willing to share. They're not willing to make
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: a choice that's good for quote student and we don't
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: call them student athletes anymore, which is good because they're not.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: But somebody has to have their best interests right. And
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: now people are going while they're making five million dollars,
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: I'm going, yeah, but but it's not. It's you don't.
• 20:12
  Speaker 6: The word that comes to my mind is sustainability.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: How do we sustain it?
• 20:18
  Speaker 6: At some point there's going to be a level that, don't.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: You think, Yeah, we were talking to this week. It
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: used to be the arms race for facilities, right, and
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: now it's not. Now it's players. All the money is
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: going to be that you have to have both.
• 20:33
  Speaker 6: And not everybody can fight that battle like that.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: Well, the very few people can fight that battle. I mean,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: you know, we just heard this week that always called
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: Whittingham at Michigan. He said, we're they'll be there'll be
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: five or ten teams have a fifty million dollars payroll
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: by next year in football.
• 20:54
  Speaker 6: Fifty that's amazing.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: Okay. Two years ago Ohio State when they won had
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty one million. It was and everybody was aghast, right,
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: and and but it's it's just going up and up
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: and up. And I don't know, is there a ceiling.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know. You would think there would be, but
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: I mean you're around here. There's there's some wealthy guys
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: writing checks. But but if if they don't get what
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: they want, are they still going to write checks?
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: Well?
• 21:19
  Speaker 5: Well, I'll tell you what I would focus on is
• 21:21
  Speaker 5: the leadership at your individual institution, correct.
• 21:24
  Speaker 6: That has common sense, that's competitive.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: And are there those Yeah, yeah, I think there's a
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: there's a few, right, but.
• 21:32
  Speaker 5: I think we're sitting in a pretty good place right
• 21:34
  Speaker 5: now at Texas A and M, with the leadership that
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: we have. And I think that the mechanisms they have
• 21:41
  Speaker 5: to generate money, it's not you know, they're trying to
• 21:45
  Speaker 5: diversify that as best they can.
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and compete. What about Olympic sports, it's just hard.
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: And you see them, and I think we've done a
• 21:53
  Speaker 6: good job of not you know, cutting taking them. No,
• 21:56
  Speaker 6: and they and and they do.
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: They do have the best they try, the great coaches,
• 22:01
  Speaker 5: we've had success. Yeah, and facilities are great. So yeah,
• 22:05
  Speaker 5: I think we're we're doing that balancing act right now.
• 22:07
  Speaker 6: Very well.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: It's hard. Yeah, Uh, basketball coming coming up. Let's let's
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: talk a little bit this next year. What what he said.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: We know how competitive it's going to be because these
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: other teams have gone out and done the same thing.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: Everybody's excited here and I get it. Buckets brought in
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: some really good players, some really good pieces. We know
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: he can make them fit because we saw him do
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: it last year. Right, we know what what we're going
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: to see.
• 22:33
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and I think the pieces have gotten better.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: Sure, absolutely they have.
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: You go back and think about it. We had probably one.
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: You say, when you say legit, I mean one on
• 22:43
  Speaker 5: paper point guard.
• 22:44
  Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, and and then you know you may
• 22:47
  Speaker 8: do yes. At the end of the season, Pop was, yes,
• 22:50
  Speaker 8: he's probably a combo but yeah, you know. But at
• 22:53
  Speaker 8: the same time, I think we've gone out and got
• 22:55
  Speaker 8: some guards. You know, a young young man from l
• 22:58
  Speaker 8: s U. That's a quick dude. It's the past first guy.
• 23:01
  Speaker 6: Yep.
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: You know you're going to have the people that you've
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: signed it to fill a role that maybe combo guard.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, haye. And you've got guys that could
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: shoot and yet guys.
• 23:13
  Speaker 6: That can shoot and score, not just shoot, but.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: School well that's what I mean, right, but what they.
• 23:18
  Speaker 5: Can do things, you know, you think about it. We
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: we we've got a great mixture of forwards Tennessee.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: Right, Yes, yep, you know, one of Bucky's guys had
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: to get size, had to get bigger.
• 23:31
  Speaker 6: Good good guys. Got Zach coming back, that's huge, Yeah,
• 23:34
  Speaker 6: Baco back. Obviously you have.
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: The freshman is six ten from California. You're gonna have
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: these guys kind of infuse the roster a little bit.
• 23:41
  Speaker 5: But if you think about it, when late game came
• 23:44
  Speaker 5: down to it. You look at the good.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: Teams, one or two dudes, you still have to have that.
• 23:49
  Speaker 6: You got to have that guy.
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: You go get go, get shots always. You know right
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: that no matter what system you're played, right, no matter
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: the system, you have to have a player that you
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: know the ball is going to be in that person's
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: hands at the end of the game, or make a decision,
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: or make a shot, or go to the free throw
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: line and make your free throws.
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: Score on the move, score, spot it up, score, getting
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: an offensive rebound, just score period, get a bucket.
• 24:17
  Speaker 6: And we had guys that could score, but I think
• 24:19
  Speaker 6: we've got a roster now, guys that.
• 24:20
  Speaker 8: Could be more diverse, more diverse and have an ability
• 24:24
  Speaker 8: to go get a bucket.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: When you have to have one, buckey is almost like
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: almost positionless. And like all these guys are right, they're
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: expected to obviously to fit whoever they're on, especial handle
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: the ball.
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: Especially defensively because they'll switch back and get the different matchups.
• 24:41
  Speaker 6: That they want.
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: But at the same time, you have to be able
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: to be you know you're gonna have to cover on
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: the floor, on the floor, uh, and you have to
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: know when the double team and it's all it's all
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: a part of his system.
• 24:54
  Speaker 6: It's it's taught, you know, every day.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: Obviously you still like doing what you're doing with radio. Yeah,
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, I know travel gets old, but yeah, you know, no.
• 25:03
  Speaker 6: I'll tell you what. I really really enjoyed this show.

• 31:23
  Speaker 1: of death has been released. It was suicide. After the finding,
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: the Lake Havasu City Police Department released a statement confirming
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: that it was ruled of suicide pending the completion of
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: toxicology results, but it continues to be an active investigation

  Speaker 1: the criminal investigation Unit has submitted Darryl Sheet's cellular phone

• 32:14
  Speaker 1: investigative step is essential to advancing the case. Additional information
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: will be released as it becomes available. That's very strange
