- 1:11welcome, everybody. Thank you for joining us for this episode of Sports Allegedly

- 1:22Brimley shirts, the sugar I got the sugars. Thank you all for joining
- 1:26us for this episode. Diabetes Awareness Month? Is it? It should be
- 1:30Diabetes Awareness month every month? But thanks for joining us for this episode of
- 1:38Sports Allegedly. Oh do you even know what episode this is? No,
- 1:42I don't. I used to. I think it's going to be one of
- 1:47those episodes that we're going to talk about a bunch of things. We're going
- 1:49to talk about a little bit about tu women's basketball. They still play.
- 1:53They are issues issue men's basketball. Oh you gymnastics, Oh you softball.
- 2:00But let's just start with what is going on right now. It is the
- 2:04madness time of the year. There's your list, there's your list. Hold
- 2:09on. Let men now currently in our brackets that we filled out, I
- 2:15was last place. I think you've strolled into last I strolled back. I
- 2:20do this year to year. I live in last place in the bracket because
- 2:25I have NC State winning it all. Yes, if you see that,
- 2:29Sean has now I want to talk. Let's we can talk about that,
- 2:31because as far as the tournament goes, you see a lot of the top
- 2:37seeds have continued to move on. Surprising though, and we can talk about
- 2:40NC State if you want to start with that. They've been one of my
- 2:43biggest surprises because when I noticed your bracket when you filled it out, I
- 2:47looked at it and I thought, man, he's got NC State winning at
- 2:50all. No way that this team who had to win five straight games in
- 2:54a row in the tournament to turn around to get to the tournament. I'm
- 3:00talking about ACC Tournament team. Remember the Maintains. They beat They beat you
- 3:04Wu and see twice, didn't they They beat They started with Louisville, they
- 3:07beat Syracuse, they beat Duke, they beat Virginia, and they beat you
- 3:12in c That was in the ACC Tournament. That's how they made the tournament.
- 3:16Now they were nine to eleven. At the end of the year,
- 3:20they were nine to eleven. Conference play twenty four and fourteen, they were
- 3:23the tenth seed in the conference. Last game regular season, the game was
- 3:27against Pitt. They lost, and Pitt didn't make the tournament, which should
- 3:30have former OU Jeff Caple coach, not a big fan of his coaching,
- 3:36but but that team should have made when they even talk you got screwed about
- 3:42the tournament. We'll talk about that a little bit later. But they screwed.
- 3:45I mean they were pretty much beat up. Yeah yeah, I mean
- 3:49talking about there was a lot going on with that. They needed to win
- 3:52another game or at least win one or two in the tournament. You know,
- 3:53they were the sixty nine team to get there. They were the very
- 3:58first team to get to get booted. Now you had shit, I wrote
- 4:02it down, didn't even bring it. You had twenty one number one seeds
- 4:09lose and you had seventeen number one seeds not even make it to their tournament.
- 4:17Let them make it to the to the final in their tournament. Oh
- 4:19really? Oh yeah? A lot of that and generally that's not but that's
- 4:24what keeps knocking teams down is because you have automatic qualifies for for winning your
- 4:30tournament. The team that wins the tournaments on well, there was some.
- 4:33There was some stolen bids, if there spots, if they want to call
- 4:36it. Morgan was one, I think in C State was one. There
- 4:42was another one. I can't remember. Oh, while I'm talking about that,
- 4:46pull up the pull up the current, I want to talk about the
- 4:50current records for the conference. Current conference records. I want to talk gets
- 4:56go back to n C State. So they won all those games, finished
- 4:59tenths spot and then they turn around and the funny thing is is Kevin Keats,
- 5:02coach of n C State, was on the hot seat, turns around,
- 5:06wins a tournament and there was a kicker in his contract that give him
- 5:12a two year extension automatically if he won the ACC tournament. So that kicked
- 5:17him two years up on his current contract. I don't know how many years
- 5:20was left, but it automatically, it automatically added two years. So I
- 5:26don't know if he legitimately was going to be fired, but there was some
- 5:29stuff talk that he had underperformed, but I loved I loved it, kind
- 5:34of like Dan Monsoon from Long Beach State. Munson, Yeah, that was
- 5:40that was it was a Munson Maybe that was a tow Oh isn't he Guerrilla
- 5:46Monsoon? It is Dan Munson. Gerrilla. Monsoon was the great commentator.
- 5:56Bless his purple and blue glasses. I love that man. But no,
- 6:02Dan Munson takes Gonzaga, which is another team I want to talk about.
- 6:08Segue into that. You know, fourteen Sweet sixteen since nineteen ninety nine,
- 6:12second current active streak, most in the nation. That's how me and this
- 6:18year. They had talked about earlier in the year that even Gonzaga had some
- 6:24issues that they might not even be in the championship or being at large as
- 6:28simply because of the playing in the West Coast Conference. I thought the but
- 6:33I think that what they'd done in winning to get to the Sweet sixteen,
- 6:39the route that they had, who Gonzaga, I mean, that was my
- 6:46other surprise. I'm they're playing way too well. You know, instance State,
- 6:48they barely beat Oakland. It was over time. Excuse me, of
- 6:54course Oakland with you know they got the shooting. I mean, just I
- 7:00mean that upset. Who did they beat? Remind me of Kentucky. Kentucky,
- 7:02that's right. I mean they were shooting squareheaded fell they were shooting lights
- 7:06out, they were shooting lights out. So they tried it against UNC and
- 7:10you didn't see had to take them to overtime to win. You or in
- 7:14C State, Yes, inn C State and so and but took them to
- 7:17overtime. So they're still and and probably this is going to be their best
- 7:20week because they need a break. They need to rest. I guarantee you
- 7:25they're going to rest at the big guy is But no, I thought I
- 7:28thought it was but I thought Gonzaga. I thought the wins. Obviously McNeice
- 7:32was a kind of a Cinderella. Will Wade was a coach there, former
- 7:35LSU coach gotten some problems turned McNeese state around. I think they'd lost twenty
- 7:41two or twenty three games last year. They won twenty six or something like
- 7:46that. This year. No, they were thirty. I'm sorry they were
- 7:48thirty and three this year. My apologies, but Gonzaga really killed them.
- 7:54And then they took a Kansas team that obviously their best player was out as
- 8:01far as hurt, and they have and they beat them handily yesterday. So
- 8:09pick it's pretty dead going good. I'd be afraid to see what mine is.
- 8:16Oh, it's definitely no. I looked at my my CBS one.
- 8:22I'm at sixty four sixty five. Yeah, I did. I didn't do
- 8:26I didn't do ESPN. I don't think did one for us, and then
- 8:28I did one for but anyway, and my third, uh, my third
- 8:33surprise was Kansas and I thought Bill self had a press conference after the game,
- 8:41did you was not a surprise for me, No, it wasn't.
- 8:43It was a surprise how bad they lost, I mean surprise, and it
- 8:46was all year long. They did not want to be there well, and
- 8:50it was all I think it was all year long. They were very of
- 8:54course, he talked about it at his press conference, and I'm not there
- 8:56was no issue to that. I mean, he was asked what his feelings
- 9:00and stuff, but he kind of said he was looking the next year.
- 9:03You know, he had some scholarship players that there wasn't a whole bennet he
- 9:07said, I think there was eight that was healthy in the rotation or something
- 9:11like that, but said he'd been looking, uh to next year. And
- 9:13I thought just odd to say that coming off a loss, because it could
- 9:18it could be inferred or not even inferred, when you when you switch the
- 9:24stretch the truth or whatever and make it out that like he wasn't giving a
- 9:26ship about this team, which which is not the case. I mean,
- 9:30Bill self won national championship two years ago. It was it was uh,
- 9:35it was much as nuts. It was God, I can't think of words.
- 9:41Sorry, my head is jone. No, it was Nick Saban when
- 9:46Nick Saban was not playing in the in the title game. Remember Nick Saban?
- 9:54When when Alabama wasn't playing in the title game. It was like,
- 9:56oh, yeah, well, you know we were we were already looking ahead
- 10:00for next year. We were we were already over here. We you know,
- 10:05they act like they didn't care because they lost. I just thought it
- 10:07was odd, like the year that, oh you beat them in the Sugar
- 10:09Bowl because it didn't matter for anything. Oh that was the rumor yet and
- 10:13then then but it happened numerous times after that and before that. He just
- 10:20he acts like he didn't really care. So correct, all right, So
- 10:22right now Sweet sixteen, we're down. We've got uh, We've got Illinois,
- 10:28Iowa State, North Carolina. Alabama's still playing. Clemson just beat Baylor
- 10:33horrible loss by the big Oh did you find the stats on the conference stats
- 10:39for the tournament? Their record? Alabama's currently with Grand Canyon, Alabama's got
- 10:45a lead. Clemson beat Baylor. Baylor, their loss was horrible simply because
- 10:48of free throws they actually had. We had them gone because we had them
- 10:54on our bragger, but though they could have. And congratulations to Clemson,
- 10:56I mean everybody had Rick Petina, Rich Patino's. I mean not everybody,
- 11:03but a majority of these. That New Mexico was the sweet the dandy darling
- 11:07this and Clemson, Clemson beat him. Clemson beat him, and then Clemson
- 11:13for the most part led i'd say thirty seven thirty eight minutes of the Baylor
- 11:18game and dominated till the end that that Baylor could have tied it with free
- 11:20throws but the freshman missed it. Arizona also looks good. And then on
- 11:26the other side, Houston, Texas A and m is getting ready to play.
- 11:30Duke beat James Madison, another darling that did beat Wisconsin, and boy,
- 11:35James Madison played really fast, good. It was a fun game to
- 11:37watch. But Duke just came out today. Duke looked the best they've looked
- 11:41all year. I thought was that tournament game. They look like they're in
- 11:46the business to win. Yeah, they do. Also in c State like
- 11:50we talked about earlier, beat Oakland in overtime. Marquette took care of Colorado,
- 11:56only won by four Colorado areas. He could have won that game,
- 12:00pdue Purdue kills killed uh Utah State? Zach, Yes, is that?
- 12:09Are they for real? Are you feeling it? You know last year they
- 12:11went out for I think it was first round, wasn't it? Or second
- 12:13round? Gonzaga, like I mentioned, beat Kansas, Creighton, Oregon that
- 12:18was one of that besides the NC State game crighton Organ was one of the
- 12:22best games of the whole tournament. I watched that last night and went it
- 12:26to was that double overtime? Which which was that double overtime? It was
- 12:30Creighton and Organ styeh, Creighton Oregon State was double over. I told Axton
- 12:33I was watching with my son. I said, you know, generally when
- 12:35you get into these multiple when you get into when you get into these multiple
- 12:39overtimes, these basketball teams, generally one will come out hot. And it
- 12:43was fifteen to one. I think what Creighton's outscored second overtime. Orgon's never
- 12:48had a chance. It's just one of those things. It happens that way.
- 12:50You know, those second or third overtime someone or just becomes a snowballs.
- 12:54Oregon had that game, the whole game, and the Creighton just would
- 13:00not go away. And I don't know if you noticed that that. I
- 13:03know they played like three forwards. But the guy uh uh Dante, it
- 13:09was big guy, yes, very good, like an asshole. He was
- 13:11a very played like an asshole. Missing he missed that front, one and
- 13:16one too, he missed, He missed a couple of things. He says,
- 13:18he was getting cocky. He was doing like little chimmys at him right
- 13:22there towards the end, and then all of a sudden, missing that front,
- 13:26here comes the here comes the first overtime, and you can just see
- 13:28the look on his face and he's getting pissed, he's getting angrier. And
- 13:31then the second overtime, and by the end of that it was it was
- 13:35over well. And I thought the overtime that the third one, obviously or
- 13:37the second one was just a run away by Creighton, just because Oregon couldn't
- 13:41mince anything. But I thought them earlier in regulation in Tennis and Texas,
- 13:46when we talk about Texas and Tennessee, which Rick Barns congratulations him beating his
- 13:50old team. I know that meant something. But Texas missed a lot of
- 13:54shots at the end that very well. I don't know what the stats are
- 13:58over that game, but I was watching that game. Their shooting percentage had
- 14:03to be low because they were just shooting and running down to shooting and running
- 14:07down, shooting, run down, shoot, run down like they they weren't
- 14:11even they weren't even trying. They were just they were just shooting and run
- 14:16away. Here, you too, faster your conference? The record right now
- 14:22is ACC is six and one, the Atlantic ten or two and two.
- 14:28The American are zero and two, which are out. Yeah, Big twelve
- 14:33is six and five. Currently we still got to Houston to play. Yeah.
- 14:37Current Big East is four and oh, Big ten is five and three,
- 14:43Mountain West is three and four, PEC twelve six and two, SEC
- 14:50four and five, and the West Coast two and one. And every year
- 14:54so that's two two Gonzaga one. Yeah. St. Mary's and I always
- 14:58play, and I always put, I always put. You know, too
- 15:01many Big twelve teams going knowing every year that it doesn't matter that there's gonna
- 15:07be a win and a loss, win and a loss. Well, and
- 15:11I have them going to the championship Houston and Iowa State. See that big
- 15:20guy definitely needs a break. No, so talking about I thought I thought
- 15:22one of them more entertaining. Texas and Tennessee. That was just a fun
- 15:26game to watch. What You're right, Sewan? Thirty six percent field goal
- 15:28percentage for both teams and thirty three for Tennessee. Yeah, I told you
- 15:31was horrible. They were just throwing the damn ball. Like, I don't
- 15:35know what you were doing. I think you came in late on the game,
- 15:37did you get Yeah. Yeah, And I'm just sitting that half.
- 15:41I'm there watching it and I'm like, what are these assholes doing? Nobody,
- 15:46nobody cared. It was just throw the ball up and see if it
- 15:50lands. Throw the ball up, see if it lands. Are you looking
- 15:54at You're looking at shots and you know makes and it's just it's bad.
- 16:00It was. It was like watching the NBA. That's how much it bored
- 16:03me. But uh, you know, there's I don't know if there's really
- 16:08a surprise. NC State, you know, like we talked about Nancy State's
- 16:11the the highest seed left correct number eleven, as long as who was the
- 16:18Grand Canyon has to beat Alabama and That's that's pretty much it. Yeah,
- 16:22that's it because Northwestern's of mine and Yale, well, Yeale's at thirteen.
- 16:30Yeah, and they play San Diego State, which is going to be an
- 16:32interesting game because San Diego State was the title last year they did, but
- 16:34not the same team this year as they were the same team, I think
- 16:40Yale could potentially beat them, and you know, most of them actually,
- 16:44you know, I was, I was watching one of these shows this morning
- 16:47that most the majority of them picked Yale to beat San Diego State in that
- 16:52just because how they have they run and aead. So any other thoughts on
- 16:59that. I mean, you talk about out matchups. Let's talk a little
- 17:00bit about matchups right now coming into the Sweet sixteen. I mean, the
- 17:07one that really stands out to me is Illinois and Iowa State. That's huge,
- 17:11that's second two seeds. That's gonna be, that's gonna be. That's
- 17:12gonna be defensive, and that is a tale of two teams on opposites because
- 17:18Illinois is a heavy defense. Iowa State their top five rank defense, Iowa
- 17:26State stations, Iowa State tavy defense. Illinois is scoring. Yes, now,
- 17:30if you look at what Illinois won eighty five sixty nine and they won
- 17:33eighty nine sixty three. Whereas Iowa State, you know, they took out
- 17:40South Dakota State eighty two sixty five, but they beat Washington State. I
- 17:44didn't think they were gonna win that game. It's sixty seven fifty six.
- 17:48Washington State actually kept that game close high with states. I don't remember who.
- 17:52They're kind of pilled out later for that, but you talked which who's
- 17:56uh, Washington State coach Kyle Smith. I think, yeah, I was
- 18:00trying to remember who. He's like, he's going to to get some looks,
- 18:03and I don't know he's not going to beat Washington I don't think you
- 18:07do that. He's not gonna be at Washington State. No, but I
- 18:11mean, I don't The big jobs remaining right now are Washington. I don't
- 18:15think you make that move. You could, I could, but you got
- 18:21Oklahoma State left, you got Louisville left. I don't know where Kyle is
- 18:26actually from him speaking of we'll talk a little bit about coaches later. Oh
- 18:33and Colorado's immaculate run into and you know, winning winning the playing game and
- 18:40then beating Florida, who Florida was on a tear and then they go in
- 18:45and they damn near beat Marquette and and very easily could have, Yes,
- 18:49very easily could have. I was I was like oneing, the hell's going
- 18:52on with this Colorado team? Like they gave it to him. So Kyle
- 18:57Smith, he isn't. He's an older guy's fifty four, he'll be fifty
- 19:03five this year. Trust trust me, A lot of a lot of these
- 19:06basketball coaches are in there seventy no, no, I agree, but I
- 19:07mean, but I'm looking at his head coach. I was bringing that up
- 19:11because you brought the Washington State. You know, he's been in San Diego
- 19:12Air Force, Saint Mary's all assistant coach at Columbia, which is kind of
- 19:17a weird one they're but then went to San Francisco, University of San Francisco
- 19:21and Washington State. I don't really see him venturing much out of the the
- 19:26Stanford a better job than Washington State. He's gonna have to something's up with
- 19:30that because Stanford players are all transferring up. Well, they fire their coach,
- 19:33that's yeah, that's not a better job. So players didn't even wait,
- 19:40yeah, to see who was coming in. They just all said I'm
- 19:42out, and you know, I was looking to see if any o you
- 19:45players had entered the portal in up until yeah, I know, and yeah,
- 19:52come on up until uh it was the first two days. It was
- 19:57the first two days it was opened that I I looked at it and we
- 20:00had nobody, and I'm like, well, there must be something there.
- 20:06Let's finish. There must be something with that's finish. You know. We'll
- 20:11talk a little bout that because I want to talk to some vengeance. Other
- 20:15Sweet Sixteen matchups Marquette n C State will be interesting simply because n C State
- 20:21is gonna have some rest. Marquette looks like a good, tough enough team.
- 20:26So now slow market, now Houston, Texas A and M is tonight
- 20:30either team that wins that game, because there is some people that think Texas
- 20:33A and M could beat Houston and then they're a lot of you. But
- 20:38they're gonna play Duke. So that's gonna be Also a great matchup purdueing Gonzaga.
- 20:44I honestly think the Gonzaga run ends there just because the inside presence of
- 20:47Purdue and produce better than they have been in the previous years, because they've
- 20:51got a lot better guard playing the outside. Oh I know, but there
- 20:55they would they would get number one and then they would blow Creighton. And
- 20:57Tennessee also will be a fun to watch. I think you're gonna see something.
- 21:00How many times did Producenes get number one and then blowing If Tennessee can
- 21:04score cret oh yeah, but I mean they're Tennessee is gonna go in throw
- 21:10and yeah they're gonna They're gonna play the same the same matchup they played with
- 21:15Texas. Just go in throwing, don't even care. And those Creighton Creighton's
- 21:19got a better defense. Who's that coach at Creighton? McDermott. McDermott sign
- 21:25an extension too. There was a lot of talking. I liked watching him
- 21:27coach last night. Yeah he did know. He did a really good job.
- 21:32I mean that was that was a hell of a game. He was
- 21:34coaching his ass off and they should have you know, in that first overtime
- 21:37they had a good shot to end that game. And most players you can
- 21:41look at their faces and they thought they had that too. But no,
- 21:45there is no other better time. I mean, this is the primo playoff
- 21:48in sports period. Nothing top set, nothing gets closed. We don't know
- 21:53yet we haven't had the twelve team college football yet, and you think that
- 21:59that would could rival this because I like it because for the short time that
- 22:03they're going to have to do it, well, no, because you're only
- 22:04gonna have twelve and then you know they're talking about fourteen teams later, but
- 22:07but you're talking about sixty eighteen. Basketball just runs through in two weeks.
- 22:12Football is going to have to try to do something like that by the first
- 22:18of January because they're gonna be done because the NFL takes over all that you're
- 22:22getting into, you're getting in the NFL's viewing, viewership and timetables, because
- 22:29remember they start doing games after the first on Saturdays and Wednesdays and whatever the
- 22:34hell after that they do. So I don't know, I just I think
- 22:41that basketball is to have to compete because you've got you've got essentially four days
- 22:45of cram I mean, people watching. I mean, they do need to
- 22:48schedule this shit a little bit better. I think it used to be scheduled
- 22:52these The conference tournaments were done at the beginning of March, and know what
- 22:59it was. The conference tournaments were done at the beginning of March or the
- 23:02first week in March, and then everything else was well, I mean,
- 23:04they're gonna finish up in uh baseball, They're gonna fit Actually, Sean,
- 23:11I think I think their last day of basketball besides the championship is March thirty,
- 23:17first Easter. But didn't, so that's why they call it March Man.
- 23:21It used to be a little earlier. Yes, they didn't the tournament.
- 23:23The championship used to be the last day, and then of course the
- 23:27NFL moved back, so they can NFL move. I never I still never
- 23:30undertood why the NFL moved back. The super Bowl used to be at the
- 23:33end of January. It used to be the last day in January, the
- 23:34last week weekend generally, yes, and somebody somebody made an acid comment saying
- 23:40they needed more time, so they gave him an extra week. But I
- 23:45remember, I remember the march Man is ending in March like it started at
- 23:51the beginning it ended. They almost will the championship. They'll be one game
- 23:55in April. My birthday must be it's April eighth. That must be on
- 24:00Monday, because that's generally when they have well baseball this year, well,
- 24:10even though they counted two games in Seoul between the Dodgers and the Padres for
- 24:15some stupid ass reason. Uh yeah, your birthdays on Monday, that'd be
- 24:19the championship. Then, okay, so that's championship that day. So they'll
- 24:25end on Easter. Then next saturdery Sunday should be the last day. Saturder
- 24:30Sunday. That's all right, Sean, break it down a little bit.
- 24:33Let's say Houston A and M versus Duke. Do you think that? I
- 24:37mean, you know, are you still the way Duke's been playing Houston.
- 24:42I need to watch Houston in this game tonight to tell you whether or not
- 24:48they will because this is gonna be really tough and you're gonna have to see
- 24:51who comes out healthy. Uh playtime, Oh, there's already six to seven
- 24:56of the game has already started. Well on defense, that's the key for
- 24:59Houston. Is there so good defensively, But Houston or Texas A and M
- 25:03is going to be big enough to stretch them a little bit as far as
- 25:06on the offense side, same team, Yeah, kind of. But I
- 25:11wonder, I wonder why with the Big twelve being tougher in the SEC being
- 25:15easier allegedly, Uh, you know their nine seed. You know final record
- 25:21twenty and fourteen. Some of those scabs will show, as they might say,
- 25:25you know, eventually in those teams. But whoever's going against Duke is
- 25:27going to have their hands full. That's correct. The kid today, did
- 25:33he had an injury? Philipowski? Did they kick that idiot out? No?
- 25:40No, no, no, no, no. I was I was
- 25:41wondering about the kid that Philip. Let's see what was his name? I'm
- 25:48looking Johnny u Kon's currently uh Jeremy Roach, Jeremy Roach. See if he
- 25:56you know, Jeremy's a really good player for I couldn't remember his first name.
- 26:00Well, you know, he's a Roach, and so if he's he's
- 26:03from around here, he's probably faking. No the roaches. He went to
- 26:07the wrong He went to the bench with an injury. I see if they
- 26:14announced anything that's going to be huge. It was right off right the into
- 26:17that JMU game and went down to the bench with an elbow. See I
- 26:22missed the end of that because I was here with you and I was running
- 26:23up said probable to return senior guard fourteen points three assist a games. See
- 26:29the floppy Haad kid. I don't know about floppy he's got I mean he's
- 26:34moving your hand, that's right there. Yeah, I think he was in
- 26:37Flappy Head. That was that was Didn't he have a high scoring game the
- 26:42average? Yeah? What did he do this game? Hold on, let
- 26:47me go look. Fourteen points in the first round on Saturday with US today
- 26:55today is Sunday, Sunday. No, he averages fourteen points. I don't
- 26:59think they he had that. Yeah, speaking of McCain. Interesting, Yes,
- 27:07I haven't. Boy, I'm sorry I did that to everyone freshman thirty
- 27:10points, zero turnovers that hadn't happened in ages they said, no turnovers from
- 27:15and thirty points for a freshman. That was insane. Since Jordan, I
- 27:21don't even know. I know, I don't. I'm kind of wondering about
- 27:23ever since Jordan. You hate Jordan just admitted Jordan made you cry. You
- 27:32wouldn't beat every team that you loved. Ruined a lot of people's it was.
- 27:38He was the first fresh He was the first freshman to ever do that
- 27:41since the tournament expanded eighty five. I don't know about before eight three,
- 27:47but his eight threes are also UH tied for the second most by freshmen and
- 27:52an NC tournament. According to Jeff, are you talking about for you and
- 27:57I don't know. Did they win? And they won one with him they
- 28:00drafted in eighty eight nine. I don't remember those years of him losing.
- 28:06Most bulls fans don't either. Oh he was so good, but they remember
- 28:10the first four or five years that he had to have so much help to
- 28:12win. Oh, he didn't have the team of Horace and Scottie and Bill
- 28:18Cartwright and Purdue, Will Purdue, No one can forget Will Stacy King.
- 28:26Yeah, and Stacy forget about Stacey King. He got two rings. I
- 28:33think, what's your championship? You said in C State, will finish up
- 28:37here in C State. My my championship was in C State versus U and
- 28:40C still comfort comfortable with that, not by the way Duke's playing, but
- 28:45you and see yeah, they yeah, you And going in Yukon looks scary,
- 28:51but Yukon's got it easy. They have well, but they won't.
- 28:55Now here's the here's the run into the winner of Illinois and I Yeah,
- 29:00that's where they're gonna see. In my brand, gonna have Iowa State having
- 29:03a good enough defense to slow down Connecticut and win. I have Iowa State
- 29:07playing them but I have them, Yeah, I have you can on winning,
- 29:11but I have you and C beating them because they're Yeah, they're gonna
- 29:18have a harder time because if you look, un C is gonna have to
- 29:22face a clemsoner Arizona or in either Grand Canyon or Alabama because that game is
- 29:30close right now, that's gonna matter North Carolina game. What we're saying is
- 29:36even to get to the final four, they have an easier route. Purdue,
- 29:41on the other side, does not have an easy route. They're gonna
- 29:44have to go against the Creighton Tennessee winner. They're gonna have to go.
- 29:48They're gonna have to get through Gonzaga. I mean this is and Zaga is
- 29:52kind of playing that this is a different role for them. They're not that
- 29:55one to three. I didn't look at this as as big the hardest one
- 30:00to get through, but I still don't know if it is. It's the
- 30:03second halt. To me, to be the second hardest. The Houston Duke
- 30:07is the hardest. As it's playing out right now, this is this is
- 30:11now going to be the second halt. But hey, but listen, but
- 30:12you're gonna play in C State or Marquette. The winner of that, I
- 30:17think that lightens up. I'd rather play them either one of those teams versus
- 30:19Duke right now for Houston, you know what I'm saying, and not saying
- 30:23that's a breather to play Marquette or in C State. But to me,
- 30:26I think if you get past Duke, it could be better. And that's
- 30:30it. And that's if they beat A and M to nine. I mean,
- 30:30that's no get me right there. We saw them lose to what almost
- 30:34thirty points in the championships. The Sweet sixteen is you know it's four days
- 30:42away essentially, yes, starting yeah, Thursday, and then you've got two
- 30:48days to get to the Elite eight, yeah, and then the final four
- 30:51is. I think that's what makes the playoffs in basketball. That's why I
- 30:53think it's so greatest. SA is you get it. You get it all
- 30:56in about two weeks, essentially, get it. That's what he does for
- 31:00his and well, I guess I guess that'd be three weeks because then you're
- 31:06gonna get the final four a week. But but still, I mean I
- 31:07think that I think that's what makes it most exciting because you know you're gonna
- 31:11talk about the football, which is a different sport obviously, but you're gonna
- 31:14stretch us out for weeks at a time and not as many because you might
- 31:21have one or two games. But you remember, you remember watching that the
- 31:25n C State u n C Tournament game, right, the big guy right
- 31:29there, j Burts, Uh, he did not look like he was.
- 31:34You're talking about the game. Are you talking about the game that they played
- 31:37just against Oakland? Yes? Oh, looked war out looked very tired.
- 31:41Oh my god. That that big man's and they're like, he's the leading
- 31:44scorer. I'm like, no, I don't think he was that night.
- 31:47Was he? No? No, he said he but he's the leading scorer
- 31:49on the team. And I'm like, this guy looks like he needs a
- 31:52wheelchair right now. He was a little tired. Yeah. Well, I
- 31:55mean you're talking double over It was it double? Was that the double?
- 31:57They were? That was just one? Yeah, they were single? It
- 32:00was I keep forgetting because I watched two in a row overtime games. That
- 32:05Texas Tech game didn't do him any favors. Even though they won eighty sixty
- 32:07seven, it was a disappointing. That's showing, honestly. Yeah, And
- 32:13honestly, I think the big twelves made it disappointing, showing disappointing. You
- 32:15don't if you don't, if Houston doesn't roll to the final four, and
- 32:22and Iowa State at least beat I mean Iowa State was in talks of being
- 32:25a one seed towards the end. If they don't beat Illinois, I think
- 32:30it's a little bit it's going to be a disappointing year. Now. Could
- 32:35I see them losing to Yukon. Yes, I don't think that's a bad
- 32:37loss obviously for Iowa State, but but I think Illinois should beat them.
- 32:43Former OSHU coach Bradley Cooper brad mc I think it's what is his name,
- 32:49Brad brad something. Oh, and I have to say I was wrong.
- 32:52It was Jason Keapton. I hate don't like Doug Doutley bibit either, but
- 32:57I hate Jason Keeper. Who is Jason Keith? He was the bald He
- 33:00was the bald guy that played for something in ninety seven. Bright Underwood is
- 33:06the coach and knew it'd come to me. Okay, well, Cooper,
- 33:09you got anything else about the tournament? Because we don't move on, I'd
- 33:12like you're kind of I could segue into issue basketball right now, I don't
- 33:15care about basketball. I'm kind of interesting. They still don't have a coach?
- 33:20Are the players there? How many players they have left? I think
- 33:23I saw that they had won the one player. It looks good. I
- 33:28would I'd like to have him, uh transfer actually to Oh, you don't
- 33:32think it's gonna happen? Yeah, no, I saw that they had they
- 33:37had one or two enter the portal. Oh yeah, oh definitely definitely.
- 33:43But yeah, so coach. So do you think because they've waited so long
- 33:47as there're a coach right now that oh, they're probably gonna wait till the
- 33:52tournament's over. Rumor has it is? Has the Danny Sprinkle? Is?
- 33:58Is is a Sprinkle? Utah State? Why? I don't know. I'm
- 34:04gonna look at you know, I was gonna do this before, and I
- 34:07really forgot because I want to see I want to see where he's from,
- 34:15Daddy Sprinkle. Because do you hire see cal State, Montana State, cal
- 34:22State Northridge, cal State Fullerton, Montana State, Utah State? Why would
- 34:24oh you hire a guy from the I mean that guy, that guy fits
- 34:30more at Washington as the head coach. But why would os you do that?
- 34:35I mean that's been a rumor. And granted, I mean he's one
- 34:38about everywhere he's went Montana State twenty seven and Munson's still available if he wants
- 34:45to come back and coach. Yeah, but he stayed in that region too.
- 34:47I mean there's there is a thing to say about coaches staying in the
- 34:51region, especially because OSU doesn't have the Neil capability in basketball that I don't
- 34:57know why they wouldn't on a see, I don't know why they wouldn't have
- 35:00the middle capability because that is that is where they were. I mean,
- 35:04I don't even think that's where like a lot of their titles have come from.
- 35:06I don't even I don't even think, oh, you has the Neil
- 35:08capability in basketball as they should be. No women's basketball they do. No,
- 35:14we just have a badass coach at women's basketball. Speaking of them,
- 35:22let's move to the ladies. But still I think Doug gobli Gottlieb given a
- 35:25shot hire that guy. Uh, I have to apologize the women. I've
- 35:31not been paying attention. No, speaking of that real quick, Sean,
- 35:35I want to talk about a little bit. Dusty make got hired at Michigan
- 35:37five year contract. Sister is that her last name? Now? Oh man,
- 35:44uh, Florida Atlantic coach final four last year, he's going to be
- 35:47the new Michigan coach. And then oh yeah, and then Drake's coach Darren
- 35:53Uh uh what is his name? Why did I I knew? Whatever?
- 36:04The rise de sorry Darien Dese from Drake his coach got hired by the Mountaineers.
- 36:08So obviously they Chad Weeberg, which is uh huggins. They claimed also
- 36:17that he was a shot at the shot. But yeah, but I had
- 36:22I wanted to pull up something my red a little in well, okay,
- 36:27so possible I would now, and I'm not being facetious when I say this,
- 36:31Eddie Eddie Sutton was I think the greatest. I think Eddie Sutton.
- 36:37You could probably put him no, but I really think Eddie Sutton. If
- 36:40you really put every coach just for x's and o's all time, you can
- 36:46potentially slide Eddie Sutton into the top ten all time all time. I mean,
- 36:52you're talking about Rupp, You're talking about the cheater from from UCLA.
- 36:55That wouldn't I mean, that's bullshit. I mean, that was buying.
- 36:58That was that was Neil before Neil was Neil Neil, but yeah, he
- 37:06even kid But so anywhere I was pulling up, I was just I wanted
- 37:09to Nobody has really talked about this coaching search really. Oh, she's kind
- 37:14of been on the deal. So anyway, this, according to or CBS
- 37:16Sports, didn't catch. The writer says this job is falling lower in the
- 37:22pecking order, though I've been told Weyberg has been able to be aggressive and
- 37:27offers to a few candidates. I've heard everyone from Kyle Smith to Buzz Williams.
- 37:30I don't know why Buzz Williams would take it, uh, from Texas
- 37:34A and M to Mark Byington to Ronald Norris I don't think so. To
- 37:38Ronald Norris to a mirror abdu Raheem, and many more, including Devrice,
- 37:44who just got spoken for. Said one source of familiar with the process.
- 37:46The search has been a mess. Oh, I forgot Oklahoma has to to
- 37:52oh just them, Well, I don't even know who's running that school right
- 37:57now. It sounds like what it sounds like, they're just in a message
- 38:00school itself. It's I think that Chad Weiberg is actually running this search,
- 38:05which is what it needs to be done. I mean, you don't need
- 38:09ah. So Ronald Norrid, he's a basketball coach currently. What is his
- 38:15connection? He's an assistant for the Atlanta Hawks right now from Alabama College Butler.
- 38:24These are names that that have been popped up in the search. Hold
- 38:29you jumped away from what was you wanting to look at? I was gonna
- 38:32look at what all he was doing? Uh. Current women's update, South
- 38:37Carolina has continued to dominate the Lady Gamecocks took out North Carolina eighty eight to
- 38:47forty one. Was that today? Was it? That's today? Wasn't it
- 38:52so yesterday? So today? I don't know what I'm looking at. The
- 38:55women's schools, gotcha? Oh you play at five thirty to night, No
- 39:02tomorrow tomorrow, which slays against Indiana and then whoever the winner of that game
- 39:08goes against South Carolina to see oh god, yeah yeah, we're in their
- 39:14backet. Yeah yeah, so, and South Carolina is heavily favored to win.
- 39:19Oh you beat oh you beat Florida Gulf Coast seventy three to seventy.
- 39:23They actually were losing most of the game twelve seed, but one has to
- 39:27remember that they were actually part of the twenty two game winning streak and they
- 39:32lost to some big programs earlier in the year and then they just rolled through
- 39:36their conference and their conference tournament to get it. So I thought it was
- 39:38a good win for OU. Oh he's not ready to be with the South
- 39:42Carolina's l issues yet, but what we're going on their next year. Yeah,
- 39:46what Ginny has done right now is quite impressive as far as building that
- 39:51team. And I think she's all of the coach. She needs to be
- 39:52paid a little bit. Talking about TEA women's basketball there and the WA they're
- 40:00in the women's essentially n i T seventy three, sixty they missed, they
- 40:05did not win their tournament, and they missed out in an at large.
- 40:07But they're really good. I think they're twenty. I know they've only had
- 40:09nine losses on the year. Sixty two beat Arkansas first round and then beat
- 40:15Georgetown today. So this is time. And I don't understand why this is
- 40:20the first time that the women have a n it T. Is that really
- 40:23true? Yeah, Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah, this is
- 40:25still that's not the first time. It's the first time they've called it something
- 40:30different. It's called the Women's Basketball Inventation. Yeah, they've had the n
- 40:35I T before because I was researching Tulsa basketball. This is the first time
- 40:37in history that Tulsa women's basketball has won two postseason games. They've won in
- 40:44the tournament in two thousand and six, and they've won a couple of the
- 40:45women's n I T just one. It's the first year they've ever won,
- 40:50too. So they changed the n to the invitation. Yeah, it's like
- 40:52a WB I T. I know. Did you see that? There's also
- 40:57I forgot about the college basketball invitation? Sorry? Is that going on?
- 41:00Yes? Oh, I haven't even paid to the n I T. To
- 41:02be honest, I haven't either, because all the big you've got the n
- 41:06I T, you've got the c I B. No CBI, guy's not
- 41:08going on. Still it is. Pull that bracket up. Let's see what
- 41:10is in it? Did you not you ever heard of them? Yeah?
- 41:14And I was wondering why Tulsa didn't get in that one. Let's see.
- 41:19Are you really sure that went on this year? Are you just? Are
- 41:21you dreaming? See right here? Oh there's three. You've got the c
- 41:28I T, the CBI, and the n I T. Okay, let's
- 41:31pull up the n I T. Real quick. All right, here's because
- 41:34I know that anybody that's gonna listen to that does not pay listen to this,
- 41:37has not paid much attention to that. Iowa Utah play right now.
- 41:40Yes, you're going over there competing against that. They are obviously Indiana State.
- 41:45They're probably a favorite to win it. Yeah, because they got left
- 41:50out just like oh you listen, n I t is the first second place.
- 41:53They take eight loser Okay, okay, no, no, they took
- 41:57others. They took others. This is like day something I don't I can't
- 42:01tell you. They started somewhere. Now, South Florida had a pretty good
- 42:07run. Actually here, let's let's go. So Tuesday is that when they
- 42:14would have started. And that's a mirror abdu Raheem. That's actually he's been
- 42:20mentioned for South Florida. Yeah, so, like I said, they've been
- 42:25going. Okay, right now we have now we have the college basketball invitation.
- 42:32Yeah, I'm sure this exists, it does there they were scoring see
- 42:42right there. Okay, So Cleveland State, Colorado, I think one of
- 42:46the Division two. It's got to be all Division one. That's right,
- 42:50Basketball Division Evansville quite back, Little Rock Fair and then we've got the c
- 42:59I T I'm learning as much as you open. Norfolk State. Was that
- 43:06the champions No, it's semi final, No, that's it. Oh wait,
- 43:09they head to the championship to see State. Oh yeah, you know.
- 43:15Interesting fact at Tarleton State. That's where Billy. Yeah he's hurt or
- 43:21he's out on medical or something. They're playing Wednesday on the tenth, and
- 43:24that'll be the champions championship. No, that's not the championship. That there's
- 43:30two semi finals. No, but that other team said headed to the championship,
- 43:34so that wasn't the same team. It's too to be determined. I
- 43:40can't find well. I think if you remember Tulsa at one time did the
- 43:45CBI or something and won it. I think with Doug Wick and funny he
- 43:49Doug Budgick is he actually was on I saw him on the telly because he
- 43:57is No, he's an assistant coach for Michigan State. So yeah, we
- 44:02have multiple dates, we have multiple it's his son place for North Carolina.
- 44:08We have multiple things going on right now. Surprised he hasn't got another job.
- 44:14I thought he did okay at Tulsa. To be honest, Hey,
- 44:17why don't they hire thunder Dan. I don't know what Thunderdan is doing right
- 44:22now? Where can swore that he was that he was coaching, but you
- 44:28said he wasn't he was one seventy eight one. No, he coached Grand
- 44:32Canyon. I don't know what he's doing now. He's nine years at Tulsa.
- 44:37Oh no, he went to college at Charleston. That's right. I
- 44:40forgot after Doug Wojit got fired from Tulsa. He went to college at Charleston.
- 44:45That is right, all right, So and won the inaugural CBA Tournament
- 44:50in two thousand and eight. Oh, Baylor's having a tough time with vo
- 44:53Tech right now. The lady, the lady bears in the are those turkeys
- 44:59vitinua to the hooky was a turkey? Well maybe it is. I don't
- 45:06know what is it. I don't know. I thought it was a turkey,
- 45:08all right. Anything else on basketball? Yeah, I need to find
- 45:10out what a hookey is. But a hooky, it's a bird. It's
- 45:19a turkey, that's right. Kind of looks like a turkey. Because what's
- 45:24his name from CBS he was a Virginia Tech guy. Yeah, it's a
- 45:30guy with the glasses. I can't think of his name. Yeah, I
- 45:34know, the ball guy. Uh, commentator he gave his coach lady Duke.
- 45:39Uh, I want to talk about commentating. You know who I really
- 45:43like is Clark Kellogg. I think he's just he is probably the best,
- 45:49I mean out of any of them. I mean, he really is.
- 45:52You got to give credit to that guy because you don't see him much throughout
- 45:54the year, but when he comes to that it's like you listen to him
- 45:57and he's talking facts and not a lot of I mean, look at these
- 46:00other sets they're doing. They're doing, they're doing you they're you No,
- 46:05no, they're not hard facts. No, no, no, no,
- 46:08they're doing like what who's this? Uh? You know, kind of like
- 46:13a hokey who is this? You know what do you call it? A
- 46:15mascot? You know, who's the mascot here? Or fun facts or something.
- 46:19It's like the c the CBS guys come on with true facts, like
- 46:24Kenny Westa is right here with true facts. Stupid and uh and that's what
- 46:30they want to hear. All right, let's move on. We've got a
- 46:34lot more talk about. Next week, we'll have the final four already ready
- 46:37to already through the elite. No, actually we won't because I don't think
- 46:42we won't be No, because uh you off on the day. What what
- 46:47day? Sundays? Uh? No, I think I work. Okay,
- 46:52so see that's Saturday. We won't quite have the fun. I think they
- 46:53want me off, but I'll be like, shut up, I don't care.
- 46:57I'm gonna work all right. Moving on on the local news of this
- 47:04Sunday work. The thirty oh U softball currently thirty one and one, I
- 47:07know, obviously in conference, just swept ranked Baylor. Obviously. Their next
- 47:14step against Witch talm Yeah, and then the next up against which Tall State
- 47:16for one game, and then they played Kansas uh for a series. Also,
- 47:22you gymnastics scored the record NCA. How many did they give him this
- 47:29time? It's a record for teams score for a deal. So yes,
- 47:35that they broke their own record is essentially what happened. We talked about tea
- 47:38women's basketball seventy three sixty one Georgetown and then they beat so they're in.
- 47:45They're in the sweet sixth or actually in the third round of the women's Basketball
- 47:50Invitational Tournament oh in March thirtieth. Is the beginning of UFL. Oh,
- 47:59yes, I am. I cannot wait for that football. I have football
- 48:07all year. I've got football planned out. I need to figure out when
- 48:09Canadian League starts, probably around all that time. Well, like I said,
- 48:15the European League of Football ELF starts at the end of June, so
- 48:22it runs all the way through into August, so we can watch that.
- 48:29There you go. You can bitch about if you're so slow, what are
- 48:34they doing any ways? If you're not a premier player, I don't like
- 48:39you, all right? Moving on to NFL. Uh, yeah, yeah,
- 48:44we're doing Uh. Let's not forget the San Francisco forty nine ers before
- 48:46fit their twenty twenty five to fifth round pick and have their original twenty twenty
- 48:50four pick move for slots lower because of administrative payroll error, which is oh,
- 48:57Jimmy Garoppolo is not even with the team. Was it him? Yeah?
- 49:00I did. I didn't you remember that. I don't know. I
- 49:00didn't see it was him. It was okay, that's why he even came
- 49:04out and he said he was sorry, he goes. I didn't. I
- 49:07didn't understand what was happening. It was it was one of his dens.
- 49:12He was the error. He was the cleric layer. Okay, so we
- 49:15know that the Bears are going to take Williams and it's obvious credit Justin Fields.
- 49:22Stupid shut up Craig Samson and so so now I'll give it another air.
- 49:29Watch Baker in the Canadian League, So now what you can do?
- 49:31He would never watch that. They're just so jealous. Well, wait's the
- 49:38Texas quarterback ever been a starter in the NFL? Chris Simms made it one
- 49:43one a starter did start because someone was hurt. Yeah, and then he
- 49:46immediately through like eighteen interceptions. Yeah. Now he's got weird hair on TV
- 49:51and talks out his asses and he drives drunk every He's the worst. I
- 49:53think that's a different guy. Anyway. I think Chris Sims. Chris Sims
- 49:57was still drunk driving numerous times. I think Christy Simms is the worst,
- 50:00one of the worst commentators on NFL. All right, talking about talking about
- 50:04right now? Obviously, then you got the Washington commanders. Now did read
- 50:07an article that they were looking at possibly trading that pick even though they don't
- 50:10have a quarterback. I mean, they traded how to the child quarterback?
- 50:15So but I think they're gonna I think what they're looking for is they're trying
- 50:19to get a whole like Chicago should have because they're gonna take Williams. And
- 50:22I think there's a lot of desperate teams out for quarterbacks. So people really
- 50:28right now setting in the catbird seat is Washington and the Patriots. Because do
- 50:31you neither one of them feel like they have to take quarter even though they
- 50:37both do them tank who for one year and then pick up the guys they
- 50:45need the next Which team Washington commanders, do you think ownership is gonna let
- 50:52gonna let dan and Quinn do that? I don't know. No, I
- 50:55don't because dan Quin's stealing. He's been stealing coaches. He's been stealing really
- 51:00good coach. But what I'm saying is no, I think they know.
- 51:02What they're doing is they're just throwing it out there that hey trade me because
- 51:07they know some teams are desperate. There's some quarterback desperate teams right now that
- 51:10are are looking on Quinn. Viewers, No, it's looking at it looks
- 51:15like the Vikings seem to be desperate. You know, they traded up to
- 51:20get two picks in the first round. You also look at the Giants There's
- 51:22been a lot of conjecture about them and Daniel Jones. They're concerned, and
- 51:27I know Dave Ball doesn't like Daniel Jones. I mean, you could just
- 51:29see it all during Jones and also he is he's injury prone, but then
- 51:36he gave him the So he has one good season, he gives him that
- 51:38stupid extension. But okay, then he hates him the next year. So
- 51:42who's so who's the quarterback for You look at the Vikings. No, don't
- 51:46they have Tyrod Taylor. I don't even know. But you look at the
- 51:51Vikings, you look at Giants, you look at who's coaching, Who's who's
- 51:54the quarterback for the Raiders? You look at the Broncos. All those teams
- 52:00right there, you have very quarterback needy teams. Well have some Patriots have
- 52:04some have and but here's the deal. I honestly think the Patriots could just
- 52:09roll with what they've got and try to gain those draft picks. Same way
- 52:15with the Commanders. And you're right, I don't think it's more of a
- 52:17tanking, but I also think it's I think I think it's more of I
- 52:22think they're not one. I mean, you got Shadar Sanders, Travis Hunter
- 52:25next year Colorado. Two mega talents coming to be in the draft next year
- 52:30out of Colorado. Those guys away. Are you trying to say that he's
- 52:32a really good quarterback? No, I think Hunter is the steal of that
- 52:37team. Yeah, definitely. But I'm saying Shad Sanders is going to be
- 52:39a top rated quarterback next year to possibly get in that top ten just because
- 52:44talent alone. And you look at what that team done. They didn't do,
- 52:47they didn't get that Bowl eligibility, but that team was trash up until
- 52:52to them. So anyway, I think that there's I think that there's a
- 52:57lot of options there for those teammes, and I think it becomes what we've
- 53:01said before that the Bears should have been the ones to bring in the Hall.
- 53:05And I really think you're looking right now, it's going to be Washington
- 53:07at the Patriots or even maybe maybe the Cardinals go who's the quarterback of the
- 53:14Titans at Levis? It looks to me that's right Levas. So the f
- 53:19where Tannehill go? Actually, he's still open as far as I know,
- 53:22he hasn't signed with anybody. What, Yeah, Tannehill is still out there?
- 53:28What what is what is Tannehill's first name? Ryan played at Texas A
- 53:32and M back in Texas twelve. Jesus use the crystal ball. Can't he
- 53:40well? It says he's still at the Titans. No, I thought he
- 53:45was cut. Okay, what else? So Washington needs an overhaul. I
- 53:52know they've been getting rid of guys and bringing guys in. I'm not sure
- 53:55where they're at currently. You got Curtis Samuel, so you do have a
- 54:00good You've got Ala Gardy. Those are the current free agents. So Jacoby
- 54:13Brissett is still there? That did they bring him in? Are you looking
- 54:19at I'm looking at Washington. We're doing Washington right now. So they let
- 54:22Logan Thomas walk, Okay, So it's either gonna be Jaden Daniels or trade.
- 54:28I don't think there's anybody else in that. And now you've got these
- 54:31everyone talking about neighbors. You're talking about Marvin Washington. You got even Brian
- 54:37Thomas, the wide receivers, so you've got them talking about them because a
- 54:40lot of people are putting neighbors ahead of Harrison, which something is silly.
- 54:45He's a number one receiver off the board in my opinion, and that's who.
- 54:47You know why but no, but I mean that's who that he didn't
- 54:51even have a produce, but that's who. That's who. The Cardinals I
- 54:53think are coveting. But I honestly think they're gonna trade down and try to
- 54:58get one of those other wide receivers if they can get some number one.
- 55:01Because if you think about it, Sean, did they have two number one
- 55:05picks this year? The Cardinals didn't. They get Houston's also, but it's
- 55:07down further because they got them. They got four. But I mean I
- 55:13think they've got one lower. Shut you for the Will Anderson shut them out.
- 55:17They are twenty seven. Let me, you gotta let me. I
- 55:20just need I just needed the number. I was trying to find it.
- 55:22I knew the stat the Mountain number. The mount number is what caused me
- 55:29to not find it. Ease. I had to go look, it's okay,
- 55:30here's this one. Where's the other one? I knew four. Didn't
- 55:32have to talk about four. I still had to go look to the side
- 55:36at the top o case you missed it. Sometimes I'll go to the bottom.
- 55:38I'll miss it when you go to the So do we talk about so
- 55:45what you're all over the place right now? What about the Chargers? Would
- 55:50you do you think there's a possibility they trade Herbert? We talked about did
- 55:54we talk about this person? Did we talk about it? But I been
- 56:00thinking about this because I had this dream and maybe it was a dream or
- 56:02just a thought. Is like you give, no, you give? You
- 56:07give Herbert in a first round to get another first round and maybe a later
- 56:13pick or I don't know. I mean, how how how desperate is uh?
- 56:16I don't know? No, I mean I think he's not. I
- 56:20think he wants a total revamp of everything. He's got rid of the two
- 56:23wide receivers, obviously, got rid of Williams is now Williams Mike, Yeah,
- 56:31Mike Williams is now a Did he just sign with Jets? Jets,
- 56:39Yeah, of course. Keen Allen went to the Bears, so they got
- 56:44rid of their two top the number three, number four cap hit that's who
- 56:49that was restructured Boston. I don't know about the restructed, both both of
- 56:52them. Austin right here, he's known with Washington. Yes, Jakoby Brisset
- 57:00went to New England. Bobby Wagner came from Seattle over to Washington, six
- 57:08million from Mario. These backup quarterbacks are making a lot more money they've ever
- 57:13had in the NFL. It's too much for trash like Sam Darnold got signed
- 57:16for one year ten million dollars at the Vikings. Now he potentially could be
- 57:21the starter to the Vikings, you know, because everyone they say is in
- 57:25love with JJ McCartney. That's thirteen, that's where the smoke's been, and
- 57:30they've wanted to trade up to get him. But it seems to be a
- 57:31bitting more between them and the Giants. But does San Diego play a role
- 57:37in that? Do they do? They make a move and then what's the
- 57:40Raiders do? What would New York give to Chicago so they could get their
- 57:44boy? Who's their boy New York? Yeah, so he get McCartney.
- 57:50Did you just say that they were in love with McCartney JJ? Yeah?
- 57:54No, No, I think I think what happens is, uh, what
- 57:58would New York give up? No? I think New York needs a stay.
- 58:00McCartney will follod to them. Who above? All they're worried about is
- 58:05the Vikings going above them? Okay, so we would the Vikings give up
- 58:09to get Oh? No, No, one's trading with the Bears. That's
- 58:14the sign sealed and delivered. No, you guys have already made your choice.
- 58:19There. You've got your human garbage, you've got your guy baby God,
- 58:24generational, you're gonna get a whole fucking staff fired because you generational,
- 58:29you pick stupid. You're well. I had the FMO. I could not
- 58:34let everybody take trash that I knew was trash with every fucking Red flag that's
- 58:39going on. But I think I needed that stupidity. But I think the
- 58:44two people, I think the two teams I gotta pay dumbads. I think
- 58:46the two teams that have been smart though, is the reds or the Comanders.
- 58:51I was gonna say the Redskins is the Commanders and the Cardinals, and
- 58:54maybe even the Chargers. The Chargers could look at trading down, uh,
- 59:00because you know who they're gonna They need a wide receivers. No, no,
- 59:02no, no, no, I think they're I think they're gonna,
- 59:05and douce Ah said they're wide receiver. Dickhad already said to do what Eli
- 59:09Manning did if he to go to the Bears. I forgot who it was.
- 59:13No, that's not what they're gonna do. That's what. No,
- 59:14no, no, they're said to do what Eli Manning did for Kaylen Williams.
- 59:16No, that's not gonna happen. That's gonna happen for if you read
- 59:20it. There was a podcast that reportedly that Deon Sanders come out and said
- 59:25that Hunter and Chador there's certain teams they're not going to and he said,
- 59:30and we will pull an Eli if that happens. No, no, this
- 59:34was about Kaylor somebody. Oh, I'm sure, but it's not gonna happen
- 59:37for him. Oh yeah, I read that, But it's not gonna happen.
- 59:39What that didn't wants up money? No, it's not gonna happen.
- 59:43Well, they're gonna get the money. And it's a big market team and
- 59:45there's no other in Chicago. There's nobody good in Chicago sports wise. Right
- 59:51now, he will be the face of Chicago sports Bulls. You'll be wearing
- 59:54them on your shirt eventually. But it says Super Bowl, Oh my only
- 1:00:02missed it by games. Thanks Caleb Williams. I don't just scramble again.
- 1:00:08No, but I think that that's what Washington and maybe even the Cardinals and
- 1:00:12potentially the Chargers are thrown out that they're willing to look at these trades.
- 1:00:15It's all they're just grand standing. No, they're all grand standing right now
- 1:00:19because they know that the Vikings, the Raiders, the Giants are a quarterback.
- 1:00:22Not talking about what we're supposed to We're supposed to be talking about the
- 1:00:25NFL East, NFC East. You're talking all over the day that is today
- 1:00:30is the NFC East. That's why I have Washington pulled up. That's why
- 1:00:35I started talking about Washington before you went on fucking whatever time I was talking
- 1:00:38about the drafts. I know I was talking about the draft because I think
- 1:00:43that's important. Washington is up there. So what else do they need?
- 1:00:46They need everything they've got to fix. They've gotta fix a lot. I
- 1:00:52mean, they don't need wide receivers. Dan Quinny, don't need running back.
- 1:00:54Dan Quinn came in and stole a bunch of really good they're gonna draft.
- 1:00:59They're gonna really good coordinators. They're gonna draft, They're gonna draft a
- 1:01:02lot of They're gonna draft a quarterback first. I don't think Okay, if
- 1:01:07they stay at too yes, I think J Daniels is it. Hands down.
- 1:01:10Let's the Bears take jan Daniels. Now, no, I just take
- 1:01:15Jameen Daniels because I think that's maybe I think that's kind of what they're trying
- 1:01:19to get his people at the top. Guy mm hm. But I mean
- 1:01:24essentially, if you know, as a team and they're kind of the same
- 1:01:28way, if there's a team that's got somebody rated higher on their board than
- 1:01:31Kayleb Williams, another quarterback, then you can should get essentially the same draft
- 1:01:37all as the Bears would have got for looking at that. I don't think
- 1:01:39you're gonna get three number ones like the idiot Browns give up for Watson,
- 1:01:45but I think you could get too. Browns are still giving up too much
- 1:01:47money for everybody. They're not even they're not even upset that they paid Judy
- 1:01:52that much. I'm like, you know what, it's gonna come back.
- 1:01:55It's gonna pay dividends. And I'm like, nothing you guys have done is
- 1:01:59paid diviment news absolutely, And you know, you could see the Chargers move
- 1:02:02up to to get Marvin Harrison if if they liked him so much. Too,
- 1:02:07so we done, We'll move on to the you move on to the
- 1:02:13Giants. No, they're not gonna be any good you see that diad cap
- 1:02:16space for Dullas. Yeah, but you know, and I joked about that
- 1:02:21that that wasn't a bad contract when they signed him because next year he's got
- 1:02:23his fourth year, they can cut him totally have zero I think zero costs.
- 1:02:28That's fine, that is totally funny. But they did get Brian Burns.
- 1:02:30They stole him, and they pulled Singtary from Singletary has been healthy.
- 1:02:40Was a weird high. I thought they paid him a lot of money.
- 1:02:44He's he's one of the best players on the defense. So yeah, you
- 1:02:47just stealing, you just stealing. He was taking Carolina's you know, trash.
- 1:02:53I don't know what Carolina's got left anymore. What do they have left?
- 1:02:58They overpaid for some people too. We talked about the NFC South.
- 1:03:00Oh, we haven't got that. That's gonna be a lot of dead cat.
- 1:03:02I mean, they over signed and teams generally the Bears. That's one
- 1:03:07thing about the Bears. I know we're getting off subject with this division,
- 1:03:08but I thought the Bears did really well. Not we've never no. I
- 1:03:12mean, they didn't overpay. They had one of the most you know,
- 1:03:15salary cat friendly. You know, they had the most money to spend.
- 1:03:17I didn't think they overpaid for anybody. So were the Bears. Yeah,
- 1:03:22I didn't think they did. I thought they did really good. And that's
- 1:03:24the thing. If Kayleb Williams actually is their first pick, he's gonna come
- 1:03:28to one of the best teams ever. The first Giants loves McKinnie the Green
- 1:03:34Bay. They lost Bugley to Philly. They brought in John Runyon, which
- 1:03:38was good. But how old is Runyon? He's twenty six out there,
- 1:03:44he's you know, the older maybe does I guess? I guess. So
- 1:03:50they run a Sean Robins. They let a Shan Robinson go. I think
- 1:03:53that was part of the Burns deal, wasn't it. Yes, So Drew
- 1:03:57Locke came to the Giants. Yeah, they got Drew. They talked about
- 1:04:02Tyrod Taylor. Yes, yes, that's what it was. Yes, that
- 1:04:06So Drew Locke is another back up Austin Schlatzman. They did get guard Stinny.
- 1:04:15I thought that was a cheap deal. We let him go because we
- 1:04:16got another guard. It's kind of almost a trade off. So they got
- 1:04:23stole from Philly. They still have them last. I have them picked last.
- 1:04:28I mean before we even get to this big board. Next year,
- 1:04:30I've got them. Yeah, I have him last. No, that's last.
- 1:04:35I mean because unless they do something quarterback wise, unless they do something
- 1:04:41anything wise. Yeah, and I kind of wonder because you know, this
- 1:04:45is kind of maybe the day of all year that they're gonna have to Is
- 1:04:47he in the hot seat? I don't think he should be. But they
- 1:04:50underperformed last year pretty pretty bad. So they went underperformed the Copparently they barely
- 1:05:01finished above Washington, all right, reason, Oh no, you yeah,
- 1:05:11we got to do it. Yeah, I do the Eagles. We'll do
- 1:05:13the Cowboys last. Okay, I was wondering who to do last? All
- 1:05:17right, Kenny's second favorite team all all time, the Philadelphia Eagles. I
- 1:05:23can find out where they are. There they are. Now, let's not
- 1:05:27forget the job. Well, no, let's not forget. They've got Gunny
- 1:05:30Pickett, a premier quarterback. They've got no mere back up. Yes,
- 1:05:33it's like a premiere running, but I guarantee it's the most expensive, shittiest
- 1:05:40quarterback. It's just hit Daniel Jones, who's his back up? Because that
- 1:05:45could be right there. They might have the worst quarterbacks in the whole league
- 1:05:48as far as parable to play versus money. We saw, Yeah, who
- 1:05:53was it? Drew Lockly Drew locks probably better better, Yeah, probably hurt.
- 1:05:59But anyway, No, I didn't say that out loud. Let's let's
- 1:06:05see. Now they got Barkley, nothing wrong with that, and he stay
- 1:06:11and they pulled outside the outside linebacker, offensive offensive linebacker from Philly, from
- 1:06:18the Jets. It was one of the Jets' best players. Uh, they
- 1:06:24got Barklay, but then they let Swift go. They let Baird go.
- 1:06:28Uh, then they brought they let of course they let Mariona go because that
- 1:06:31guy hasn't done shipping ever. They brought Hennessy in from Atlanta is their new
- 1:06:36center, which wow, that's a big replacement. No offensive London, the
- 1:06:42defensive line are gonna be not as good as I'm just saying. Defensive line.
- 1:06:47I didn't have a really problem with. But defensive defense for the well,
- 1:06:53yeah, but defense last year was the problem. I mean it was
- 1:06:56it was night and day. You still out lane Johnson on the offensive line.
- 1:07:00But you know, man, I don't know, I just hurts went
- 1:07:05back, took a step back last year. As far as performance, well,
- 1:07:10it was lucky he was thrown But they've got to them. They got
- 1:07:13Will Greer. Oh, yes, Will Gear from West Virginia. So but
- 1:07:16they have the they still have one of the best, still a better quarterback
- 1:07:20than any Texas quarterbacks, Texas quarterback at one point he might have been actually
- 1:07:26who knows, Oh but no, I mean so, but they still have
- 1:07:30a j. Brown, They still have who's the other one? God,
- 1:07:35the two wide receivers Sean Lone I missing the missing the other DeVante Smith.
- 1:07:42So they still have the two best wide receivers. And when we get down
- 1:07:45to talk a little bit about the Cowboys, we'll figure that out because that's
- 1:07:49the thing that I think Dallas is missing. But it's the thing that they
- 1:07:54have that they don't. But is the quarterback better? I mean, are
- 1:07:59you taking are you taking Dak Prescott or you're taking Jalen Hurts now pay wise,
- 1:08:05but pay wise they're about the same, which is ridiculous. Anyway,
- 1:08:12Yeah, you're gonna keep How are you gonna keep all those premium quarterbacks on
- 1:08:15your team? Will Greer, Kenny Picket, You're so wrong. I just
- 1:08:23want you keep that, even Zach the Pittsburgh so wrong about how do you
- 1:08:29keep that? They wasted a first round pick on that guy. The guy's
- 1:08:31trash. Rudolph laid better better. I knew Picket was not because he was
- 1:08:43told he wasn't going to be the starter. We got pissy, so he's
- 1:08:45like, let me go, let me go, let me go, but
- 1:08:49don't let me but know. But then they turn around and got Fields right
- 1:08:54after that. That's what I'm on the cheap and I'm not disagreeing with what
- 1:08:57you know. Pitts room is uh six million? Is that what they're past?
- 1:09:02That's cheapest fun? Yeah, yeah, I mean they're real cheap.
- 1:09:05On quarterbacks. I don't know who the third string is. Doesn't matter because
- 1:09:11you got Russell Wilson Justin Fields two of the premiere Cream of the Crops taking
- 1:09:19on Justin Fields. Your m v B if he would be playing this year
- 1:09:24with the Bears would be I don't know, d J. Moore record his
- 1:09:29yeah yeah, record record, especially since they revamped an offensive line. So
- 1:09:35but I do like Barkley. I think that was an upgrade on on the
- 1:09:38obviously on the running back, no doubt. If he stays healthy, if
- 1:09:42he stay if he stays healthy, sorry, that's that's gonna be the key.
- 1:09:45It's healthy. And he did last year. And it's fine, but
- 1:09:48I think that. But I think the Giants and kind of like what no,
- 1:09:55I think it's a it's a trick, but anyway, And I think
- 1:09:57that's what the Chargers did with Eckler. I think that's what Barkley've done.
- 1:10:00I think Pollard. I think, uh, Pollard the same way with Dallas.
- 1:10:04If you want to move on to Dallas, I still have them.
- 1:10:10I'm leaning to pick them third place in that division. Yeah, yes,
- 1:10:16there'll be one. I think Dallas will be number one. I potentially think
- 1:10:24that Washington's never too. I really job. I think Washington this is where
- 1:10:29we haven't we have it back because I'm thinking Dallas, are they the one
- 1:10:33that drops? And and maybe you're talking in Washington second. Yeah, see,
- 1:10:38I've got Washington second too, But I've got washed Dallas ahead. They
- 1:10:42haven't done anything to know, they haven't, but go down who they lost,
- 1:10:45and I want to tell you that they lost no one that's important.
- 1:10:48Go ahead. He did to the Titans odd though too. It's like they're
- 1:10:55all defense now. The Titans, they just went from a defensive guy.
- 1:11:00Funny, let's see, but they got Calvin Ridley, who armstrong the d
- 1:11:06n. Armstrong left to go to Washington. By that, he left to
- 1:11:13go to Washington, Pollard down Tennessee, Smith now in Jersey, Fowler now
- 1:11:18in Washington, Kendricks to Dallas. That was. Yeah, it's huge,
- 1:11:25But look at the top five and I would I would argue that no one
- 1:11:30is a loss in that huge loss at all. Now, don't look at
- 1:11:34the money, but think about the performance. Iron Smith has been healthy unhealthy.
- 1:11:40If he stays healthy, that would be great. But he's ten eleven
- 1:11:43years in the league. Now, I don't think so. I think they
- 1:11:45got rid of a lot of fats what they got rid of, but they're
- 1:11:48getting ready to have to pay parsons. And that's exactly that was what happened.
- 1:11:56But he didn't do ship he did about that. But he was He
- 1:11:59did worse. He was worse. They need a now, are they they?
- 1:12:03Gallimore went to Miami. Yeah, but he was a backup dude,
- 1:12:08that's I mean. He was. He was just a rotation guy that you
- 1:12:14Nevill you know, not Neville with the weird thing on his eyebrow though it's
- 1:12:18Neville Gallimore timey Not he did did he did? He did? Little people?
- 1:12:29People, hold, did he yes he did. The little people think,
- 1:12:33oh okay, that's possibility. Yes he had the high pitched voice I
- 1:12:39like to don't take away in my head and everybody not Neville Gallimore. But
- 1:12:47anyway, Oh, they brought back your favorite Rico Dowdle. Not bad.
- 1:12:54I don't think that's a I mean, look at it, it's cheap.
- 1:12:56Still, he still didn't they do they do or draft somebody obviously, so
- 1:13:00I don't know who's out there. Who's Oh, there's a like I said,
- 1:13:05running back styles man, who's out there that's a premiere running back diamonds.
- 1:13:10I mean your generational talents. B Jean Robinson. That guy has gone
- 1:13:14to the wind. Wait till he does badass this year. Dawkins are gonna
- 1:13:18be something to deal with. I'm telling you it's because everybody in the nc
- 1:13:21NFC South sucks. No, Tampa won it for like the last four years
- 1:13:26because everybody sucks, and I think we could win it again this year because
- 1:13:30everybody sucks. The whole division's trash. You're taking that as their quarterback now,
- 1:13:35Atlanta? Why am I missing something? Fucking Kirk Cousins. Oh yes,
- 1:13:40Kirk Jake Color two point. Oh he's better Jake Keller. No,
- 1:13:44he is Jake Keuler. He's better Jay Keler two point oh. All right,
- 1:13:47so early so I Christian, No, I know, and I know
- 1:13:50Dallas didn't do it. I haven't got to see Kirk Cousins. But now
- 1:13:54hold on that. I know you didn't do a lot of Dallas, you
- 1:13:56know, like pickups, because they didn't do much. This is this is
- 1:14:00I know that this is there. So what's the I don't see the problem
- 1:14:04right now. They've still got Chriss Gallop. They think they're gonna draft it.
- 1:14:11That's that's the They're gonna have to do something because they have made no
- 1:14:14moves. You're looking at having two starting receivers. I don't know who your
- 1:14:17number three receiver is because you let Gallup go. Oh, they'll have Cooks
- 1:14:24and CD, which I think cooks myself. But yeah, but is he
- 1:14:28your number three? And so you get number two, you're gonna have to
- 1:14:30get a number someone you watch. You need a running back, You need
- 1:14:33offensive line. You get a running back from four to seven, and offensive
- 1:14:36line same way. Okay, you need offense, and you still need defense.
- 1:14:41You need to you need to fill those holes of the defense that just
- 1:14:44left. I think hiring Zimmer for the defense, I think you're gonna and
- 1:14:48I Zimmer, I think I honestly you honestly, now listen, I honestly
- 1:14:57think that that was Now Dad is great, great coach. But I think
- 1:15:02what Dallas weaknesses is the secondary. And I think that Zimmer that's his specialty.
- 1:15:08He's it's actually going to be an approvement. No, no, no,
- 1:15:13no, you're thinking of freaking digs and all them. It's interception or
- 1:15:16touchdown is what they give up? They get an interception, give up if
- 1:15:19the yeah, no, that that that is not it. I think that's
- 1:15:24their weakness right now on that. And then they got to get some depth.
- 1:15:27But I think you can do that with the draft and some more free
- 1:15:30agency, because that's not over yet. That's not over yet. I still
- 1:15:32hey, listen, preliminary. I've got Dallas, Washington, Philadelphia Giants.
- 1:15:38That's the finish. Would you say, Dallas, Dallas, Washington. I'm
- 1:15:44Washington, I know you are, I know the Giants. Giants still last.
- 1:15:49So does the Giants finish? Let's see they finished number two, the
- 1:15:54first, barely above Washington. Oh shit, you missed that one, didn't
- 1:15:59you. Okay, I won those picks last year, just letting you know,
- 1:16:03preseason picks. I won that. So I hope everybody heard that.
- 1:16:10All right, anything else to close our crystal ball? Yeah, it's off
- 1:16:15my ball. I don't have anything else. I mean, we didn't do
- 1:16:20apparently we just but no, but no. What's funny though? And then
- 1:16:25if the East, I think that's going to be the biggest players in the
- 1:16:28draft early is going to be Washington in the Giants you talk about that.
- 1:16:30I think that's going to be to the big I mean the draft this year,
- 1:16:32which we'll be doing live for the draft this year on Thursday night,
- 1:16:36the first round. This is going to be one of the most This is
- 1:16:41going to be one of the most entertaining. Seventy two sixty one Alabama moves
- 1:16:45on. What's the game going on with Houston right now? What's the score?
- 1:16:48Forty three? Okay, half time forty three thirty eight half tomes in
- 1:16:54leading Texas A and M. And we have a Yukon Northwestern twenty Yeah,
- 1:17:00it was twenty twenty four seconds left in that game, so you can Yukon
