- 1:06camera. Thank you, Scott, glad to be here. And George Ikorn
- 1:11and I were the architects of the Sports Echine many many years ago. Yes,
- 1:15yes, yes, I love the name of this show. It takes
- 1:19me back to those days. Scott forty five, forty four years whatever it's
- 1:23been. Who's counting right? And all I know is we're getting older,
- 1:26We're getting heavier. We're getting grayer, all right, But dad said the
- 1:29guy that wouldn't know about the sports exchange until recently, the last couple of
- 1:33years, mister JB ellis, what is this getting older stuff? When not
- 1:38getting older, we're just getting better. Yeah, but in my case,
- 1:44you've been to look at my medical bills. But I like to think that
- 1:47we are getting better. Anyways. You know, I was just texting my
- 1:51sister in law tonight that you know, I can use the strawberry Margareta right
- 1:55now, but I have a sports exchange at the top of the hour.
- 1:57One of the few nice things I said to my sister in law who's not
- 2:00named on astor. Okay, so don't worry, just kidding out a son,
- 2:05and anyway, let's go wait wait a minute, JB were like,
- 2:07fine, wine, we get better with age, right exactly, all right,
- 2:14So Candy, we're getting better and we better get faster with this chattingroom.
- 2:17Boy, you're the ones got to have a good solid right hand lik
- 2:21of that. They're all there waiting for you know what. They were little
- 2:29the business. Yes, yeah, they were channeling their injury energy for this.
- 2:32I got called by them two or three times and I got injured.
- 2:36They've been wait for this show. So with that said, let's talk about
- 2:38the show predominantly hoops tonight with the final topic being the Masters. So,
- 2:43but that said, let's go around the horn here. Nancy W Women's Finals
- 2:47viewership outdrew the men national Championship by eighteen point nine million to fourteen point eight
- 2:53million. For some reason, I'm not surprised on defeat in South Carolina game
- 2:59con defeated IOWA. Was Caitlin Clark? Well, yeah, who would be
- 3:02surprised? Right when you got Caitlin Clark. You know the star power that
- 3:07the women's game. Well, let's start off with a woman, Candy,
- 3:09what are your thoughts about what we saw for this particular change of events,
- 3:14change of numbers. I think it shows a lot that the women's game has
- 3:20really that Caitlin Clark has really brought to the forefront an excitement about the game
- 3:25of college basketball and especially about women's sports. I think it's about time.
- 3:31I also wonder though, because it actually was on ABC, whereas the men's
- 3:37game was on what TBS and TNT. The other thing is is it was
- 3:43on Sunday, so it's on a day that everybody's off, whereas the men's
- 3:46game was at nine pm Eastern Time on Monday night, and so I wonder
- 3:53if that has a little to do with it, But hey, I'm not
- 3:55gonna complain. I love the fact that the women's game has such an excitement
- 4:00about it and had so much viewership. I think it's only good. It's
- 4:04great for young females that want to play the game as well, because it
- 4:09shows them an excitement that fans are starting to come back and starting to back
- 4:14back women's basketball. And I hope it only continues to grow. Well,
- 4:19it actually started last year. What are you talking about? I mean,
- 4:23first of all, Caitlin Clark was in there, who they lose to last
- 4:26year, LSU, and all that was was a carryover to this year,
- 4:28is what it was. With that said, I'll segue over George Eichorn,
- 4:31and let's make sure we keep this chatting room going because these guys are fast
- 4:34and furious and they our Scott. But yeah, is it was a great
- 4:41show and Candy. I think part of it is also because of let's face
- 4:46it, there has not been a good long term track record for women's viewership
- 4:51for their basketball championship. I think that's part of the scheduling thing that you
- 4:56just talked about, with the women being on on three o'clock on a on
- 5:00a Sunday afternoon as opposed to the men, you know, nine o'clock on
- 5:02a Monday night. They I'm telling you, there were a ton of people
- 5:06that wanted to see that game in person. Those tickets were going for so
- 5:11much money in Cleveland, the arena, unbelievable, unbelievable. What a great
- 5:15show, what a great effort. And Caitlin takes her show to the WNBA
- 5:21where I know that they are very excited to welcome her into that league.
- 5:26And you want to talk about that league growing now with the with the additions
- 5:30that they have, it's going to just go through the roof. But yeah,
- 5:34the TV ratings said at all Scott, and I mean it was a
- 5:38phenomenal, uh, phenomenal season for she and Iowa, and of course hats
- 5:43off to the undefeated South Carolina, the champions. Yah, we'll turn over
- 5:47Joe, so I mean ones on ABC, the others on TBS right away.
- 5:56You're gonna have trouble drawing people at TBS on Monday night nine o'clock is
- 6:00a late start. I happened to be in California when the game was on.
- 6:03It had to pretty late for me, and I was in California,
- 6:06so you know, I couldn't imagine being on the East Coast, and you
- 6:11know, Ucon's from the East Coast, produced from the Midwest, and they
- 6:15got to be a pretty late to watch the game. Three o'clock in the
- 6:18afternoon on a Sunday beautiful, you know, great time to watch. Not
- 6:23sure why they don't do it as a doubleheader. I think that would be
- 6:27so much better for everybody involved. Everybody would want to watch it. You'd
- 6:31get both championship games back to back. You don't have to have them in
- 6:34the same place, but you know, I think that would make great sense.
- 6:40You know. As far as the women's out drawing the MENO, that's
- 6:43phenomenal, you know. I mean, it was a good game. South
- 6:46Carolina undefeated, took care of business. Caitlyn Clark. The effect is real,
- 6:51people are interested in her game. People want to watch her. She
- 6:56draws eyes to the sport, which is a great thing to have. The
- 6:59question who's going to be next for the women's basketball at the NCAA, Who's
- 7:04going to bring that draw because I'm not sure who it is. We'll wait
- 7:09to see what happens next year. You know where Caitlyn D's up? What
- 7:13team? You know what league? Because you know there are all sorts of
- 7:16ridiculous things out there. So I saw something today about the Houston Rockets.
- 7:24You know, listen, wherever she goes, hopefully she performs and does the
- 7:28best of her ability, and she makes a boatload of money for her effort,
- 7:32as every athlete should do while it's their time, and hopefully she enjoys
- 7:36playing the sport. But good good for the women to out throw the men,
- 7:42and good for rocket scientists too. Look at this guy, Joe,
- 7:45I'm telling you you got this kind of activity on your network. I'm sure
- 7:47you do. But look at this there. Rocket Scientists sixty nine. And
- 7:53I know this guy. I talked to him every day. This guy's a
- 7:56classic. He's a real rocket scientist. Every time I go on some of
- 7:59their calls, he's not afraid to let me know he got a master's degree
- 8:03in aerospace. Now I didn't even know about aerospace. Then again, you
- 8:07know, until he sat there and show flashed around his degree. And this
- 8:11guy rockets on all these guys are classic, and yeah, then we get
- 8:13bigger than a bigger barstool because these guys had more power to them. We'll
- 8:18do we can to make sure that we make it worth their while as we
- 8:22get to that. Now, here's what I see happening with Caitlin Clark item
- 8:26number one. She's a projected pick for the Indiana Fever from what I've heard.
- 8:31Correct me if I'm wrong that thirty six of the forty Indiana Fever games
- 8:35are going to be on national TV. The only ones that I remember in
- 8:41my lifetime that would have this much impact on Larry Burden, Magic Johnson for
- 8:46what they did when the NBA had tape delay. So you want to talk
- 8:50about an impact thirty six of forty magic Larry. It all paints out that
- 8:54way. And she seems like a young lady, great young lady, and
- 9:00she plays well, I mean she you know, let's face the reality.
- 9:03They face the South Carolina game Cock team that went undefeated, and I think
- 9:09they're like one oh nine and three over the last few years, so they're
- 9:13pretty tough. You know. Don Staley's got them playing real well. So
- 9:16everything is looking up to me for the ladies game. And again this is
- 9:22the second week in a row. I'm talking about women's basketball. So for
- 9:26all you women out there that say he doesn't talk about it, give me
- 9:31a reason. I'll put it on this show. I'll put it wherever that
- 9:33I have. I mean, you know, if I had a basket Bros
- 9:37Or basket sister, for all I know, I find it to put it
- 9:39there. But the reality is is the women do have the WNBA, and
- 9:46they've also you're talking about ladies that can end up playing in the Olympic Games
- 9:50then dominating the dailies out of there. So this is, to me is
- 9:54a remarkable story. And you know, Joe, you made a very interesting
- 9:56point. But anything that sounds too good, we know will never happen.
- 10:01I would love to see a ladies championship adjacent to the men's You want to
- 10:05talk about these ratings are good? Can you imagine what happened if you have
- 10:09what a Grand Slam doubleheader like that? Really, I get louder, don't
- 10:16worry, thank you. Keith Jackson. Yeah, there you go. That's
- 10:20keep Jaxon revege. I imagine if they did it in the same city,
- 10:24you know, just have the women play Friday and Sunday, or Thursday and
- 10:30Sunday and the men play Friday at Sunday. Can you imagine the draw and
- 10:33the amount of money that would bring into the city. But what do I
- 10:37know about sports? I just got it talks about it. Yeah. Well,
- 10:41but you know what, Joe, there's perception in the reality and the
- 10:45way these NCAA people work, they wouldn't put it in the same city.
- 10:48They want to spread the love in two different places so that the revenue is
- 10:52split. But it doesn't make a lot of sense. But then again,
- 10:54well, how many times do we want to college football playoff to be twelve
- 10:58and whatever? And it never happened for nine million years anyway, So we
- 11:01need to get a show about UCS sports. Okay, Rocket Scientists, when
- 11:05you're ready to come on the air, I'll let you feed me some UCS
- 11:07sports. But you know what, though, let me mention this before we
- 11:09go to the next topic. I have a proposition for this chatroom. By
- 11:13the way, Travis Burg, thanks for being on the show for the first
- 11:16time, and we hope you come back as well as the rest of the
- 11:20folks that are due to the broadcast tonight. But here's the thing. I
- 11:22have a question. I have a challenge to those people in the chatroom.
- 11:26And I've been thinking about this all day long. I want you to come
- 11:31up with a controversial topic, okay, but not religion and sports, so
- 11:35that we could go with not religion and politics. It's okay, all right,
- 11:41And I want you to come up with those ideas and I'm gonna put
- 11:43them on Pundit's pundit. I guarantee you I will put something in pundit pundit
- 11:50which will be stronger than gunpowder. Okay. So I'm challenging everyone, even
- 11:56in that chatroom. Everyone come up with one good topic controversial every week in
- 12:01pundit pundit, okay, and I'm not fund it. And I'll say that
- 12:07those that want scientist, gosh, rocket scientist wants to show about UCF sports,
- 12:13we could always do an episode of Fire Up Florida about UCF sports.
- 12:20Gotta come on. Yeah, but yeah, there you go, and Joshua
- 12:22Door. Unfortunately, that may be the only topic I won't talk about as
- 12:26transgenders because I don't know if I'm gonna get Caitlyn Jenner to whack me with
- 12:31an aluminum bat, so I'll stay away from that. But no, pretty
- 12:35much just about anything, but not that in politics. I don't want to
- 12:37get into that discussion. Or if I do find myself on it, I'll
- 12:41get off the show. Let somebody else bold enough to deal with that.
- 12:45I'm not going on that show. But anyways, all right, so that's
- 12:50a challenge everybody in the chat room. Okay, you go out there,
- 12:52come up with something for Punnit Bunnit and send it to us. I'll write
- 12:56it down and boom and you say zoom. Okay, am I fire up?
- 13:00Yeah, I guess so I always get fired up on the broadcast.
- 13:03Why not seck a microphone in front of me. You know what a microphone
- 13:05like me is. It's like a kid with a lollipopp you can never have
- 13:07it. You can never have it enough. I'll figure that out. Willian
- 13:13Ellis, he's here and all this stuff for the first time, said I
- 13:15know exactly. Well, yeah, you know Ellis knows. I mean he's
- 13:20taking it nine million days all long. So there you have it. Okay,
- 13:22challenge acceptance man Mouth thirty ago, Joshua Door. You like to come
- 13:26up with ideas, don't worry. I'll put these ideas fruition because one of
- 13:30them will be on our last segment. All right, segment number two.
- 13:33Hats off to retiring stamp for a woman basketball coach, Tear Van de Vere
- 13:39after twenty eight years, get this woman's record. Okay, thirty eight?
- 13:45What did I say? He said? Twenty eight? Right, Well we'll
- 13:48add ten. Okay, twenty eight. Maybe my penmanship is that bad?
- 13:52Well thirty eight, twenty eight, ten years, Well, I'll take the
- 13:54thirty eight. That's even better. Twelve hundred and sixteen wins, three time
- 13:58NANCAA champ, fifteenth times PAC twelve champion. Of course won't be anymore because
- 14:03there's no PAC twelve. Five time National Coach of the Year. Started as
- 14:07an unpaid grand assistant, winning as head coach in NCAA history. Well,
- 14:13miss van Derber got out at the right time. She won't have to travel
- 14:18to those a SEC schools. A let's celebrated career, Candy, this is
- 14:22the woman's show. So what do you think about Tara? I think that's
- 14:26an impressive, impressive resume. She has twelve hundred and sixteen victories with Idaho,
- 14:33Ohio State and Stanford. She overtook Mike Krzyschewsky's record earlier this season.
- 14:41She said, basketball is the greatest group project there is, and I'm so
- 14:43incredibly thankful for every person who has supported me and our teams throughout my coaching
- 14:48career. She's been spoiled to coach the best and brightest at one of the
- 14:52world's foremost institutions for nearly four decades. Coupled with her time at Ohio State
- 14:58and Idaho and as coach of the United States national team, it has been
- 15:01an unforgettable ride. The joy for me was in the journey of each season,
- 15:07seeing a group of young women work hard for each other and form an
- 15:11unbreakable bond. Winning was a byproduct. I've loved the game of basketball since
- 15:16I was a little girl, and it has given me so much throughout my
- 15:18life. I hope I've been able to give at least a little bit back.
- 15:24As a coach that's coached for that long, you've obviously given back to
- 15:28the girls that you've coached. How cool is it that as a young girl
- 15:33you played a sport that you loved, then you got to coach the sport
- 15:39that you love. If we could all be so fortunate to do what we
- 15:45love to do and get paid for it, to coach for a team.
- 15:50You know, a game, people play a game. But to instill.
- 15:56The one thing I'm going to say about coach is, especially probably at the
- 15:58college level, is you can instill and help transform and grow and mature young
- 16:07females. And that is not only a great thing to do for as a
- 16:15paid profession, but it's a noble thing to do too. Just like teaching,
- 16:19you can help mold people to be better, to work as a group.
- 16:25And I give her a lot of credit because thirty eight years. As
- 16:30I sit here and think about how long I've been in my profession, in
- 16:33September, it'll be thirty three years for me. So she's been doing it
- 16:37thirty eight years. That's awesome, great career. Loved love hearing about it.
- 16:44But I can almost guarantee that part of why she's getting out now.
- 16:48But besides, she's had a good career. Nil probably has a lot to
- 16:52do with some of these coaches leaving the game now, I'd say, andil
- 16:57has everything to do with these coaches leaving the game now. Think about all
- 17:02the veteran coaches that have left. Nick Saban of all people got out of
- 17:06there earlier. And you know, the one thing that about the women's game
- 17:11that very few people have to understand, and I've even paid attention to it
- 17:15many years ago. If there's the mother of this game, it's Pat Summit.
- 17:21She really is. I mean, Tara van Derveer's done unbelievable stuff,
- 17:23Dons Staley's doing and who do you have the woman from Rutgers with a Vivian
- 17:29Strangers done some incredible stuff over there. But Pat Summit and now Tara vanderver
- 17:33who probably doesn't go ahead and get much publicity as much should because she's on
- 17:37the West coast anyway, So kudos to her. I mean, you know,
- 17:41but Joe Ellis talks about Tara listen to being around thirty eight years coaching
- 17:49in any sport, says all you need to know because you don't last that
- 17:55long if you're not really good at what you do. And in college,
- 17:59it's not just about winning. You know, we see the wins, but
- 18:03at a school like Stanford, it's a lot more than winning. Academics is
- 18:07a huge part of what they do in Stanford. We're not talking about you
- 18:11know, you see Irvine, and that's not insaulting you see Irvine. But
- 18:14Stanford is an elite college. You know, not many can can compare to
- 18:19that, except for maybe the Ivy League schools. So when you go to
- 18:22Stanford, it's it's very similar. So to be in that position for thirty
- 18:26eight years and then on top of that, to have a track record of
- 18:30winning, you know, great for her. What a way to live out
- 18:33your dream and to mold so many young women for the future. George,
- 18:41keep it going in the chat room more. They're coming fast, I know,
- 18:45I know. Well again, it's another example of a wonderful lady,
- 18:48a wonderful coach, and she she has affected the lives of so many young
- 18:55women. Like you said, Candy, I mean, this is where a
- 18:56coach really really excels and she can affect the lives of those women that are
- 19:03going to have a great future ahead of them. You're right, Joe,
- 19:07this is a great school, the Stanford Cardinal. I mean that university is
- 19:11right up there as far as engineers and all kinds of professions that people graduate
- 19:18from. Just very very noteworthy school. Stanford always has been. And coach
- 19:25van Denver, I mean, come on, are you kidding me? She's
- 19:27been to sweet sixteens, she's been to fourteen final fours, Like you said
- 19:34Scott. Two hundred and sixteen victories combined at these great schools Stanford, Ohio
- 19:41State, and Idaho, three national championships. What a wonderful job. What
- 19:45a wonderful way to go out too, even though you lost this year.
- 19:49Hey, you can put your head up high always because you did a hell
- 19:53of a job and you were one of the best women's NCAA basketball coaches,
- 19:59I believe than ever walk the face of this earth. All Right, can't
- 20:03you put that chat up there by Christian bartrambaut going being smart to go to
- 20:06Stanford. I want to address that very quickly. Okay, you know what,
- 20:10Christian, that's the biggest understatement on the planet, no doubt about that.
- 20:14You were You hit a bullseye with that comment at Christian good stuff.
- 20:17How so? Yeah, no, you like everybody talk. It's a very
- 20:19high academic place. I actually was out there and toured the university many years
- 20:23ago when I was covering the Lions game at Candlestate Park, covered with the
- 20:27forty nine ers. So it's pretty interesting. You know, they were the
- 20:30Cardinals and then they changed it to the Cardinals. So it just shows you
- 20:33the type of institution that it really is. Now with that said, let's
- 20:37hop on over to the men's side. Danny Hurley Yukon men are now now
- 20:42the Yukon program is six to zero in NCAA final games. This year.
- 20:48They won all of their March Madness games by double digits. Get this stats
- 20:55in Okay ninety one to fifty two, Northwestern fifty eight and only what I
- 21:00can only imagine what ifa you would have had to have gone through that just
- 21:03esp id Dusty Mays's decision to go to Michigan. But seventy five fifty eight
- 21:08San Diego Steak got a beating a year ago, and they got it again
- 21:12this time eighty two to fifty two, Illinois seventy seven to fifty two,
- 21:17Alabama eighty six seventy two, produced seventy five sixty three Big Ten teams.
- 21:22So, Joe, I'm going to turn to you first. Okay, you
- 21:26covered the Big East Tournament and you had a chance to see Tinneticut, right,
- 21:30you knew they were good, but did you think that they would walk
- 21:33through the tournament and beat teams all by double digits? They are the probably
- 21:40one of the best teams I've ever got to witness play, And that says
- 21:44a lot because I've seen a lot of college basketball and a lot of basketball
- 21:47at my time. They the last time they were challenged was by C.
- 21:52John's. And you know what I noticed is they have a a style where
- 22:00they almost you know, they could play inside, they could play outside.
- 22:04They have a big man, Kleigan, who's phenomenal. They have great perimeter
- 22:10players. They're always looking to make the extra pass if I have an open
- 22:14shot, but you have another shot that's a little bit better. They're so
- 22:18unselfish in moving the ball. They rebound, they run, they do everything.
- 22:22I've never seen a team that is that complete. And what impressed me
- 22:27most, especially at the Big East Tournament, was, you know, I
- 22:32was looking over the roster. It was a lot of newer guys because they
- 22:36lost a bunch to graduating youth last year. So it wasn't just like they
- 22:41brought the same guys back from last year and they won another championship. No,
- 22:45they brought new guys in and they played even better. It was really
- 22:49impressive to see. You know what, before we turn over, George Jonathan
- 22:56Heydek has an interesting thinking about Russell Mendia. So I was just putting on
- 23:00it was a little different, and then I'll go back to everybody else.
- 23:03Didn't you guys talk about Cody Rhodes, Russell Meania win, biggest sporting event
- 23:07distinct. I don't know anything about it. I open it up to any
- 23:10of you guys should do it. I can tell you there's a show called
- 23:14top Rope Talk on Monday nights. They cover wrestling specifically. I don't watch
- 23:21Eddie Rustling. I used to years ago, but I couldn't tell you if
- 23:26Cody Rhodes won. I'm taking your word on it, Jonathan, Yeah,
- 23:30I mean you know, there you go, give it another plug one more
- 23:33time, JB. About this fill oh, top Rope Talk. Denzel Snipes
- 23:38has it every Monday night. Great show. Okay, there you go,
- 23:44all right, there you go down. Then all right, we'll turn over
- 23:47to George. Well, it's a great, great story. I'm telling you,
- 23:52Yukon is a great story. Listen to this. This guy, Dan
- 23:56Hurley, he's got Polish blood in him. And as some of you know,
- 24:00I'm involved with the National Polish American Sports Hall of Fame. So my
- 24:06question is is when are we going to be able to vote you in?
- 24:10Dan Bobby Hurley, He's already in the Polish Hall of Fame. Now we
- 24:14got to get you in, Danny boy, what a great job. Championships
- 24:18two years in a row. I can't agree more than what Jbella said.
- 24:22I mean, after last year they said, oh, this guy's leaving,
- 24:25this guy's leaving. Oh yeah, well what did they do? They come
- 24:30back with another great, great performance. It's just incredible. I mean,
- 24:36Scott read all the teams they beat, you know, and it's not easy.
- 24:38Come on, winning the NCAA tournament. You had to go through,
- 24:42like you said, Stetson, Northwestern, San Diego State, Illinois, Alabama,
- 24:47and Purdue, but you did it. And then you're right at the
- 24:52top of the game, a final contract of eighteen and two, and then
- 24:55overall they were thirty seven and three. So I know the ratings weren't as
- 25:00good as the women's ratings, but I'm telling you that was one heck of
- 25:03a feat that you confold, even though I went on record last week,
- 25:07as you know, Scott and taking for due to win it all. But
- 25:11there's no denying it. The Hurly boys are at it again and coming up
- 25:17with all these championships puts a big smile on my face. Because I like
- 25:21that polish blood too. And by the way, Kyle, you want to
- 25:25talk about pickle ball, I'll be weren't happy to invite you on the show.
- 25:26We'll give you fifteen minutes to do it. One of the things that
- 25:30we're considering doing here at Denzel Snip's brought it up is anybody that wants to
- 25:34talk about something, If it's interesting, we'll put you out for five or
- 25:37ten minutes. How does that sound. You're really that passionate about it,
- 25:41we'll do it. But meanwhile, pickle ball, we'll see, everything's on
- 25:45the table. All bad news. Joshua may not have a chance to get
- 25:48to the Masters yet because we're running behind on time. Kidding with you,
- 25:52Kyly knows, and I'll tell you want to lay the fire under Joshua door,
- 25:56that would be the way to do it. Who's left on this one?
- 26:03He needy? Go ahead. The most illuminating thing about Yukon's run is
- 26:07that you have a multitude of options when it comes to your favorite stat from
- 26:12the dominant stretch. Maybe it's that the Huskies never trailed in the second half
- 26:18of the game in the tournament. Perhaps it's the obscene thirty to zero run
- 26:22against Illinois in the Elite eight. Defense enthusiasts might point to Yukon allowing Purdue
- 26:30to just make to make just one three pointer the entire title game. However,
- 26:38the one that resonates most stretches over both NCAA tournaments and shows just how
- 26:45elite a coach Hurley has become in this era. Yukon's twenty twenty three NCAA
- 26:51tournament run twenty plus average scoring margin, Yukon's twenty twenty four NCAA tournament run
- 26:57twenty three point three average scoring margin. Florida's back to back titles in two
- 27:04thousand and six and seven were incredible impressive feats, but the Gators were blessed
- 27:10by the return of five future NBA draft picks that played significant minutes in Jochem
- 27:17Noah, Al Horford, Torren Green, Corey Brewer, and Chris Richard.
- 27:22Yukon did not have that same luxury. The twenty twenty three champs were led
- 27:27by Adam Saganoa Jordan Hawkins, who combined to average over thirty three points per
- 27:33game. Only Tristan Newton and Alex Carabin returned among the players in the top
- 27:38seven for minutes played so that shows you how good that team was that they
- 27:45did it with new players. I mean, so it's not like like they
- 27:48said, the Gators returned all the same players, Fau. They returned to
- 27:52most of their same players and they couldn't make it. That shows you how
- 27:57dominant Yukon has been the last last two years and how they're doing it.
- 28:02And you got to give credit to their coach, because if you're doing it
- 28:06with new players, you have to We got what. We got to put
- 28:08this chat up here. I don't normally use this terminology, but you know
- 28:11what, I'm gonna put this one up here, and I know I'll deal
- 28:15with him tomorrow. You got me there, Scott, that was a good
- 28:17bull bus when I was messing with him about the Master. That's all right,
- 28:21Joshua, I will, you know, but maybe I should pull it
- 28:23off because maybe we need to implement a new policy. If you want the
- 28:26Master bad enough, Ken you once you get Joshua the Lincoln, we'll get
- 28:30him to talk about it. Now. Then again, as rocket as what
- 28:34do you say? Our man rocket scientists would say, what is it?
- 28:37What do we call him? Now? We call him the Florida Fried Chicken
- 28:42because he's not ready to come on yet, but that's okay. Well,
- 28:45one of these days we'll get him on here. But Timmy will sort of
- 28:48once had a saint. Because God delays does not mean that God denis the
- 28:52last thing he ever thought about. It would be Joshua door. Okay,
- 28:56but at any rate, that's that as far as I'm concerned. Danny Hurley
- 29:00is smarter than most people even realize. When they were looking at the Kentucky
- 29:04job, he says, you don't happen I get the Kentucky job. I
- 29:08get divorced because now I gotta you know, my wife is from New Jersey,
- 29:12is what she said. Okay, he's from New Jersey. I'm trying
- 29:15to get closer to the New Jersey. I end up in Kentucky, he
- 29:18said. I'm just starting to make money. I don't need a divorce.
- 29:22Smart man. That's why he's gonna stay at Yukon, and that's why he's
- 29:25gonna win a lot of All Right, Well, I'll stand the coach is
- 29:30seen one more time before we get to the Master's Joshua, you really this
- 29:33is your opportunity to hit the big time. Okay, You've got to go
- 29:37ahead and Come on, Joshua, everybody wants you in here. Let the
- 29:41real Joshua Thor stand up. I got a Florida Fried chicken. Not in
- 29:48the furniture business, kitty, with y'all here tomorrow and day's time. Anyways,
- 29:52it doesn't matter. But John Calla Perry took a one point five million
- 29:56dollars less per year from Kentucky to go to a five year deal with Arkansas.
- 30:00You know what, let me go ahead and start this one out number
- 30:03one. Cal Perry started to see the writing on the wall. Okay,
- 30:07he knew they're evaluating him year in and yearing out. So what does he
- 30:11do? The only thing smart Cali Perry should do. Take the five years
- 30:15and go ahead and leave a little less less money. They'll probably haven't incentives
- 30:21anyways for him to recruit at one point five million when Kentucky makes out well
- 30:26here because they don't have to pay the thirty three million dollars that they would
- 30:29have owed him if they would have fired him. So, you know what,
- 30:33cal Perry opportunity to go out there and see what he can do at
- 30:37Arkansas. But for all you people out there, at least you know the
- 30:41Oakland Golden Grizzlies will be a trivia question down the road as a team that
- 30:47was on Cali Perry's last game ever as a Kentucky Wildcat. All right,
- 30:51we got some new people in here, so let's go out there and Candy,
- 30:55let's go to the chat room. I'll turn over everybody else. All
- 30:56right, let's go back upstairs and see how far they go. All right,
- 31:00Dusty, thank you for being here. Glad to have you, looking
- 31:03forward to seeing you. And if you haven't subscribed, please do so already.
- 31:07It's all right, So it's Jesse Manscott, all right. Whatever.
- 31:11I can't keep tack with all these different names anyways, but all I know
- 31:14is I read them so I don't have to get FaceTime calls in the middle
- 31:17of the night or early in the morning or whatever they do. All right,
- 31:21But that said Don cal Perry, George, Well, I tell you
- 31:26what, arguably the best job in college basketball is at Kentucky, and now
- 31:32it's wide open, it's on the market. This was certainly a blockbuster move.
- 31:37I know they obviously were not happy with that performance. And like you
- 31:41said, little old fourteenth seed Oakland University from Rochester, Michigan, pull the
- 31:48shaker of all time there and cal Perry probably would have been all sut for
- 31:52next season, even though it would have still been on the hot seat.
- 31:56But you know, I think this is better for both parts. He's I
- 32:00really Joe. I think John needed to get out of there, get us
- 32:02to start somewhere else. Arkansas is a good program, good school, and
- 32:07you know, always been strong in football over the years. I go way
- 32:12back to when they had some really great teams, but in basketball as well
- 32:15of late. But you know kel Perry, you know he counts all that
- 32:21money. Man, he gets millions and millions of dollars. But I'm telling
- 32:23you he better learned how to win and not take these fourteen, sixteen or
- 32:30fifteen seeds lightly after suffering those losses to I think it was Saint Peter's fifteen
- 32:37seed and then Oakland, you know, the fourteenth seed. So bye bye,
- 32:40John, Arkansas is ready for you. That's where our buddy George Kell
- 32:45came from. Arkansas. You know what Tramas Burt does make an ancel in
- 32:49comment, Kentucky's a football school. Now, you know what, they really
- 32:51are starting a trend toward being at football school, and I think it's one
- 32:54of the stupid brothers is that Mark Stoops has done a really good job up
- 32:58there to Okay, otherwise, they had a great point. I'm glad you
- 33:01brought that up, Travis. That's a good part. Yeah. I mean,
- 33:05for many, many years, and if you've never been to Rupperena,
- 33:07you got to go there once. Not an opportunity to cover an FAU game,
- 33:10and back to back days when they went to the Motor City Bowl,
- 33:15I think it was where we ended up. FAU took on Central Michigan.
- 33:20I had to drive to the middle of the night and fogged and made it
- 33:23to Upperena. So if you've never been to Ropperina, you got to get
- 33:27there. It's just unbelievable, it really is. So Yeah, I mean,
- 33:30John, you did what you had to do. But with that said,
- 33:32Joe, were your thoughts about Cali Perry singing in the Southeastern Conference kind
- 33:40of a joke that you would leave Kentucky to go to Arkansas. That would
- 33:45be like, you know, leaving the Yankees. I'm the manager of the
- 33:51Yankees, you know what. I don't want to be the manager of the
- 33:52Yankees anymore. I Am going to go be the manager of the Colorado Rockies,
- 34:00like why it's you know, at least at Colorado's beautiful. The Rocky
- 34:05Mountains are nice. Arkansas, I'm not getting to draw. You know,
- 34:10obviously he couldn't handle coaching in the Kentucky, couldn't handle the pressure. He
- 34:15could have put together a winning team because he couldn't keep the guys in school
- 34:17because he was just recruiting guys that we're going to play at the next level
- 34:22and they were gonna be there for a year. Leave. So he wasn't
- 34:24building a team. He was just recruiting and getting it ready for the NBA.
- 34:29But that's not what being a college coach is about. Being a college
- 34:31coach is building a team and getting the men ready or the women ready for
- 34:37the next phase of their life. You know, it's a great coach Steve
- 34:40Lavin right now in San Diego, does that really? Well? Another guy
- 34:45you know, well, h Scott Mike Jarvis, great coach. You know,
- 34:52people that develop young men and women, those are great coaches. Caller
- 34:59Perry's a rate recruiter, and you know, I got with the guy for
- 35:01the year that'll leave. But then again, when you're moving from Kentucky to
- 35:06Arkansas, I don't get it, you know. I mean, hey,
- 35:12listen, I will say this. Much before they built their new place,
- 35:15I did see a game over the Barnhill Arena in Arkansas, and that's a
- 35:20cool place. Now, I want to refer to a comment that rocket Scientists
- 35:23said, I don't think Scott is going to be able to read all of
- 35:25this. You know what, Rocket Scientists, you're smart. Because you know
- 35:30why I say you're smart. I never took an evelyn Woods speed reading course,
- 35:34so don't worry. I can't wait for you to get my book and
- 35:36you go ahead and take an evelyn Wood speed reading course as well. There.
- 35:40So with that said, okay, Candy, while we're on well here,
- 35:44you know what will go through Georgia and then Candy can do all the
- 35:45business there before we go to the Masters. So who's next? That would
- 35:52be me, Scott, Go ahead, Candy. So he signed a five
- 35:57year contract with the base annual salary of seven million. The deal includes a
- 36:00one million dollars signing bonus and features retention bonuses of five hundred thousand each year
- 36:07of the contract, along with a one time bonus for making the NCAA tournament
- 36:10reaching the second round, Sweet sixteen final four and winning a national championship.
- 36:19He's sixty five. He replaces Eric Musselman and inherits a program that went sixteen
- 36:23and seventeen last season after three consecutive NC two A tournament appearances, including the
- 36:30Sweet sixteen a year ago. Joe, I think the reason why he does
- 36:35take this job is because he's kind of tired of being the one and done's
- 36:39and having all of his players move on. I think he wants to mold
- 36:45these kids and keep them around for more than one year. And that's why
- 36:50he finds this is a different challenge because I think everybody has molded him as
- 36:54a one and done. He's always got these one and done. He's a
- 36:58good recruiter. He thinks he's more than that, and he wants to prove
- 37:01it by going to Arkansas. That's why I think he took this job.
- 37:06Hey, Jacob Solomon says, I hate how Scott completely dismisses Candy after this
- 37:13absolute lesson. You know, there's a saying out there that says, holy
- 37:17moly, what are you talking about. Let me tell you one thing.
- 37:22Now I can say whatever I'm going to say here. Candy Evling is the
- 37:24most valuable player of everything we do around here. I put these shows together
- 37:29create a lot of different things. But I'm going to tell you one thing.
- 37:31Without her, the South Florida Tribune would not be what it is,
- 37:36The Sideline Sports website would not be what it is, these shows wouldn't be
- 37:39where they are. So Solomon, let me say. Solomon Scott says,
- 37:45okay, Candy Evling is an MVP. Okay, and there's no need to
- 37:52learn a lesson from that. That's how the fact, and you know what
- 37:54that stands for packed And you know what, for all the people that excel
- 37:59on this, I love it because at least I know I've been around there
- 38:04to hopefully help them out just a little, you know. So you know,
- 38:07tell him, No, I do like your comment, and I like
- 38:09to go ahead and mention a lot of things like that. But you know,
- 38:13I'm gonna also mention a shout out to Matt Segerman, the number one
- 38:16King fan. He is tuned in, but not on the chat. Thank
- 38:21you very much, Josha for bringing that up. No, Solomon Simon says,
- 38:24I don't underrate Kane Embling because I know what she does, mark my
- 38:29word. Should she retire from her day job. She'll have offers up the
- 38:32Wang Wang being able to do these websites and put these productions. You know,
- 38:37if you don't believe me as George Eye Corner JBL. So probably I
- 38:40know they'll back that up, right, guys, Oh absolutely absolutely, Yeah.
- 38:47So I used to think Solomon Simon said, but now I's say Solomon
- 38:52said, because it does sound pretty good though. All right, so everybody
- 38:55speak their piece on John Keller Perry. The only thing I'll say is that
- 39:00John Calperry admitted that he felt the Kentucky Wildcats needed a fresh voice. Okay,
- 39:07probably they did it after a while, one and done's I don't think
- 39:08you'll feet many of them in Arkansas. But if you've ever been to Barnhill
- 39:13Arena, that's a cool place. Man. Those people I'll tell you don't
- 39:16wear a long sea shirt there or you'll have as much body water as there
- 39:21is in the Atlantic or Gulf of Mexico. That is unbelievable. I went
- 39:24there one time when I went on a major trip that I knocked out twenty
- 39:28some on States Georgia. Remember getting me that credential University of Arkansas. Yeah,
- 39:32well, barn Hill Areno folks I've been there, and I know what
- 39:37those Arkansas people obviously they've graduated. So Solomon, we appreciate your what we
- 39:42do. And let's see what else we got here. We got Master's Call.
- 39:45Oh you know what, I'm sorry we have run out of time for
- 39:47the masters. All right, this concludes this Editions for the Jazz kidding,
- 39:51okay, all right, I'm not going to kid about this. Candy want
- 39:54you to let everybody know that we have some information that we want to get

- 41:12this thing, you know, this this book thing. Someone wrote a book
- 41:16in this panel, Lessons from the Microphone Tuning into the enduring Wisdom of Visionary
- 41:22Leaders. I don't know whose name is that on that book. Oh yeah,
- 41:25it's MotorCity Madmouth. Scott Morgan Roth and George Iikorn wrote the forward,
- 41:30so they are both in this book. You gotta grab it. You gotta

- 41:40Go buy that book Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Kindle or Apple Books.
- 41:47Back to you, Scott, All right, let's put that comment up with
- 41:52Jacob Salm. That's all I wanted was appreciation. So what I want you
- 41:54to do is put that one up. Okay, put that comment up there,
- 41:59and now I want to put the book there because you want appreciation.
- 42:01Here's what I want, some appreciation, Solomon. Okay, motor mouse says,
- 42:06forget Simon says, this is motormouth talking out. Motormouse says Jacob Solomon.
- 42:12Go out there and pururshase that book. I don't think it's going to
- 42:15take food off your table effect. If anything, if you learned as game
- 42:19well enough, it will probably put a lot of food on your table.
- 42:21So there you go. Your homework here all right, now here, Jacob
- 42:25Solomon is to pull your credit card out and go over to Amazon. Okay,
- 42:30put it in the cart and give them your credit card. And I'm
- 42:34sure that Amazon will have that book before you can snap your finger. And
- 42:37I can say that you appreciate it again on the next episode, which by
- 42:40the way, is tomorrow and pund it. So there's a challenge there in
- 42:44Solomon. I'll give you all the appreciation you can handle. My friend,
- 42:49I want it, and we have all these friends in the chat. It
- 42:51gives me more fired up. Man, Look at this stuff. I don't
- 42:53even neat caffeine for this. I don't need caffeine, Okay, I got
- 42:58you people in the chat room. Yeah, Joshua, George got great mind
- 43:00thinking like you know what, my brother, So go out there, Solomon,
- 43:05go get the buck. Everybody gonna learn it's a textbook. It's old
- 43:07school media for the school media. Do I ever shut up? No?
- 43:10And I won't till him dead, and even then I won't die quietly.
- 43:15All right? With that said, I go a second, Scott, Cody
- 43:17Rhodes is to do a disputer ww champion, how about that? There you
- 43:24go there? I figured if they wanted to know about that, Dusty Rhodes,
- 43:32I think it's okay, Jacob Solomon, Solomon's a goodn't agree more.
- 43:38Now we're getting some pretty good stuff. Get the bucks, Solomon. I
- 43:42would love to be able to quiz you on it as well. All right,
- 43:45josh you can barely read whatever I'll bet Scott. We also have to
- 43:51report that Otani's ex translator negotiating a guilty plea. So he is guilty.
- 44:00All right now Jacobs getting his fair get fired off? You know, I'll
- 44:04put that thing on there, boy? All right, there you go,
- 44:06all right, lead all this good stuff here. Can't you give me breaking
- 44:08news updates? All right? Do you really wanna? All right, Joshua,
- 44:13can you handle it now? Scott is on Mountain Dew. Yeah,
- 44:15you know what h Deelo's. I was on it for a long time,
- 44:20okay, but not on it now. I have a little bit of diet
- 44:22coke left in the Wendy's thing that I got for dinner tonight. All right,
- 44:25long last, Okay, this is for Joshua door. We're talking about
- 44:30the Master's Tournament to tomorrow. So before I get to this topic, okay,
- 44:37I'm gonna ask the panel this. Do you like the fact that the
- 44:39Masters comes after the march Mans? You think that's a perfect time for it.
- 44:44Joe, we'll start with you. I don't know. I mean,
- 44:49it's the Masters, It's whatever it is. It is, It doesn't make
- 44:51a difference to me. I'm not gonna watch it till Sunday. Okay.
- 44:57I guess you know what's interesting about this though? It almost if they wonder
- 45:00about the Daytona five hundred being the super Bowl the first race of the year,
- 45:04some of this stuff about there go ahead and make any sense. I
- 45:06don't know, But all right, Georgia. I'll throw it up to you
- 45:08about this question before I get to the real meat of this topic. I
- 45:13think, scott it's a beautiful setting. It is the best time of year
- 45:19this year. It fell after Easter Sunday, it fell after the final four.
- 45:23I think it's a great, great time of year. And Jim Nance
- 45:28and CBS just do one hell of a job and have been doing a great
- 45:31job for years and years and years. It is definitely on my bucket list
- 45:36to go to cover a master's tournament one of these years. I see Scottie
- 45:39Scheffler. Most experts have him right at the top of winning this tournament.
- 45:45But Tiger Woods is making another comeback. The poor guys made a lot of
- 45:50them, and we just hope that he can choot well enough to make the
- 45:53cut. But yeah, I like when it's held. You know, everything
- 45:58is green and in the state of Georgia at this time, and Augusta does
- 46:02a great job with it. All right, Well let's go to Joshua Georg's
- 46:06position. I have Rory Well, you know, pretty hard to bet against
- 46:08this guy. Yeah, all right, Scout sounds like he smokes some reefer.
- 46:13What's always good thing? Meaning lead I know what that is, but
- 46:15all right, you can out there, all right, Trav, please give
- 46:19us a weather report. All right, let's keep going, keep going to
- 46:22chat because like a rocket scientist said, I can't read that past, so
- 46:27but actually sure talk it. So all right, So we got Joe,
- 46:31Now what about you, Candy. The right time of the year for it.
- 46:35I think it's perfect time of the year because, let's face it,
- 46:37the NFL Draft isn't here, free agency is done, March madness is done.
- 46:44Opening week of baseball has passed us, so we're into the second week,
- 46:47and baseball is a long season, so it's a great time to bring
- 46:52in the only sport I would say that's really in high gear. That would
- 46:55be the other thing that you'd be opposing and watching would be And I know
- 47:00some of the panel the comments in the commentary yet haven't gone there yet.
- 47:07But the NHL, because the NHL is in their last week of the season.
- 47:10As of what the other night, there were five teams buying for two
- 47:15spots. Yet in the playoffs, they're all trying to get in last minute
- 47:20push in playoff. So besides them, and like NBA still has a couple
- 47:24more games, not too many more games yet in their regular season they haven't
- 47:29started the playoffs. So really it is a good time because nobody is,
- 47:31you know, focused in a lot of other things. So de Los seventy
- 47:37seven better be hearing more hockey talk. See I just brought it up.
- 47:42But the Masters, it's a perfect time, great tournament. Am I a
- 47:46big golfan, No, But that doesn't mean I don't think we should be
- 47:51talking about it and watching it and supporting it. I'm all for sports.
- 47:55Well, let's thanks reality. Some tournaments are in their regular part of the
- 48:00year, and this has certainly been when it's been held forever. So just
- 48:02like certain times are what they are. So I'm like Joe, though,
- 48:07I'll wait for the final day and then I'll get interested. Will I have
- 48:09too many other things going on right now, like spring games. I got
- 48:14the Miami Hurricane spring game. I have to Miami Marlins on Sunday, and
- 48:17of course I'm gonna be leaving town next week. So you know, I'm
- 48:21the interstate intimidator on the road. That's why my wife as out there and
- 48:24needs a tablet every time I get bhind the wheel and I call that racing.
- 48:29The old thing is you just don't get caught doing it, and I
- 48:30just have to know when not to do it. And we'll leave it at
- 48:32that, because I don't want all these tops out there to listen to me
- 48:35anyways. All right. But the real big topic of the week though,
- 48:38for the Masters comes from John Rahm, who calls her the live golf to
- 48:44move, so seventy two whole format. The current Masters champion joined live for
- 48:47a reported three hundred and fifty million dollars okay or a multi year after previously
- 48:55dismissing their fifty four whole events shot down starts with no cut rules. Ron
- 49:01is one of thirteen live golfers get this, okay that are actually going to
- 49:07be competing in the Masters this week. Thirteen okay? And yes, Deelo's
- 49:09you're right. I do meditate when I'm driving. It's the best thing I
- 49:14can do for somebody as high energy as I am. Delo's GMTA brother Grave
- 49:19Minds think alike. You better, I'll learn it. Okay. So if
- 49:22that said, George, the main story line thirteen live golfers in there,
- 49:25what do you think do you think it's to go to seventy two holes or
- 49:29stay at fifty four? No, I think they should be playing seventy two
- 49:32holes at their tournament. They just had one at Trump's Golf Course down in
- 49:37Durrell, Miami area. And they do some things that are different. They
- 49:42have a team team component to that tour. They play music. They play
- 49:45music when the guys are teeing off. It's kind of interesting, kind of
- 49:49like a smooth, jazzy kind of stuff. It's different, and I've never
- 49:52seen that before at a golf tournament. But come on, these two organizations
- 49:58must get together. They must little different, And says Scott, just like
- 50:00you and I saw when we had that Indy Car and that split with Tony
- 50:06George and and the IndyCar family and that whole fiasco there where they were facing
- 50:12off against each other at the Indy five hundred versus the Michigan or US five
- 50:16hundred they called it at Michigan Speedway. But this Lift Score and this PGA
- 50:21Tour they're hurting each other because the Live Tour doesn't have enough quantity wise of
- 50:28the golfers and they're paying them so handsomely. And then the PGA Tour,
- 50:32of course, has lost so many of the big names that their crowds are
- 50:37going to go down if they haven't already. So I think there's room for
- 50:40two of them, but i'd like to see them come together eventually. Yeah,
- 50:45they were both to come together, and why it never happened is anybody's
- 50:49guest. So yeah, I let's help. Back to my buddy out there,
- 50:52Jacob, I'll tay. I like taking on this guy tonight, cooled
- 50:54down. I want to see him fired up. Let me tell you,
- 50:58Jacob, what you don't want to see is how many medications I have to
- 51:00take every night. Okay, So you know my mind works in mysterious ways,
- 51:05and everybody, I'll tell you that to begin with what it is?
- 51:07What it is? So only a matter of time before the Nashua door PJA
- 51:10come together, and we're waiting for it. So that said, Candy,
- 51:15what do you think should it be seventy two or stay at fifty four?
- 51:21Seventy two? Yeah, I think it should go to seventy two. Let's
- 51:27face it, there's eighty nine players in the Masters, and only thirteen are
- 51:30from the Live. Eighty nine competing in the Masters and only thirteen are from
- 51:36Live. I'm good. There you go, Well, all right, rocket
- 51:43scientists Back then, Scott want Jacob on the show. You better believe I
- 51:46do. Get Jacob in front of me, I'll give him an appreciation.
- 51:50Should not love Jacob, Well, don't push it. The only person I
- 51:52love is my wife right now, So that's all that matters. Don't take
- 51:55it personal. But if you love your wife, okay? But I like
- 51:59you, Okay, I like I like when people challenge me like that.
- 52:01You know, love is a sacred word. Okay, it's got I need
- 52:05a partly recommendation. What is it, Parley? I don't know what you're
- 52:07talking about, right, I don't know. I'm not a big gambler.
- 52:12If you want to go to a big gambler, I have other family members
- 52:14that do, but I'm not one of those. So you got to wash
- 52:16the dishes, okay, my paper plates? Okay? So so who's Who's
- 52:22left? Is a usual? So fifty four seventy two. It's what makes
- 52:29them different, the l IV and the PGA. L IV is just a
- 52:34joke anyway. It's, you know, a bunch of guys that can't hack
- 52:37be it on the PGA that gots want to have money. It'll never be
- 52:42as prestigious as the PGA. No matter what you do. It's you know,
- 52:46it's just second rate. And if you want to play the second rate
- 52:50tour, John Rom, good for you, buddy. You'll be one of
- 52:52thirteen guys that get to go to the Masters from the l IV. If
- 52:55you want to play in a real tour. Is the PGA. Yeah,
- 52:59I know they work to other now and all that, but it's you know,
- 53:01it's like you're in the G League or whatever they call the NBA Developmental
- 53:05League. Now you're not an NBA player until you actually get to the NBA.
- 53:08If you're not in the p g A, you're just the guy who
- 53:10golfs I golf. You know what. I could be the l I V
- 53:13because that's what you are. You're you're a fraud. Get out of here.
- 53:15You like the Big Ten, We don't go that far with the Big
- 53:21ten. You can't hold what did I tell you? What? You compare
- 53:32the Big ten football, football, in basketball, in basketball? Hold it?
- 53:39Wait a mite? Now that now what's his name? Got you gotta
- 53:45be fired up? Wait a minute? You cannot live compared to the Big
- 53:52ten? What are you crazy? The line that's supposed to be safer Jacob
- 53:57Craft, But no, I don't have him kicker round. I'm gonna kick
- 54:00you around. You don't compare the Big Ten to live no way? Are
- 54:06you crazy? Scott? I think JV forgot something what I produced this show?
- 54:15I can mute his mic. Oh Big ten is not a fraud,
- 54:20No way, no way. Show else? What the hell you've been drinking?
- 54:25Here? Man? Do you have much flies? You have a visit
- 54:29tequila? What the hell you smoking there? Weed or whatever? Of course
- 54:32we didn't Dad. You know what where you made the final two basketball?
- 54:44Basketball year? You gotta wait just because you got a guy from Brooklyn,
- 54:49New Yorker, don't even know what football is outside of records. You can't
- 54:52even compare the Big Ten because they're the money makers of all college boards.
- 54:57Ellis, what the hell you drinking? And wait a minute? Wait?
- 55:01What where where does Purdue play? Wait a minute, wait a minute,
- 55:07Oh yeah, that's the Big Ten. They play, but they played the
- 55:15first the first losers, you know, their second best. It's fine.
- 55:22They actually have done well in the tournament this year. I gotta give them
- 55:24credit, but generally the Big Ten doesn't do well in the tournament except for
- 55:29Michigan State. It's well, you might be making you a little sense they're
- 55:34a little I'm not giving you too much, Alice, I am not doing
- 55:38it. Okay, you've got times though, you've got Magic Johnson. And
- 55:42if we weren't from Michigan State, Larry Bird and Magic Johnson. Okay,
- 55:45number one, you wouldn't have had the biggest audience ever in college for a
- 55:51college game. I believe it still is a record that holds today my memory
- 55:54first correctly, So don't give me the business about this. Your bottom line
- 55:59is okay, and hear me out, okay. And you know what,
- 56:01I feel bad for Ellis because he's got to sit next to me over the
- 56:05NFL Draft. And if you think it was bad tonight, wait till I
- 56:07give it to him when he's in perfect hold it. Wait let me finish.
- 56:15Okay. So here's the deal, Ellis. Okay, tell you what
- 56:17you want to say about the Big Ten. But the reality is you're from
- 56:21Brooklyn, New York. You know what Brooklyn, New York was, once
- 56:23upon the whole time, the home for the Dodgers. I do have to
- 56:27say that Brooklyn, New York dog makes some really good saltagles, and they
- 56:30have a place out here. They have all kinds of big old places.
- 56:32They start with Brooklyn, But don't you we would dare compare live with Big
- 56:37ten. No way, are you crazy? Now? You know what,
- 56:39here's the problem with this guy. He's still jetlag from LA So once he
- 56:44gets back in his groove, he'll be better. And you know what will
- 56:46happen to me? Are on the phone, We'll be talking like crazy brothers.
- 56:50They need don't care because Ellis is already figure out the entertainment aspects of
- 56:52this whole thing. Anyhow, And when he's now being told to write read
- 56:57my book two or three times, I'll write a book report and we'll see
- 57:00what's what about the They can to live and in life. There's perception in
- 57:04reality and I feel bad for every at the NFL draft. All right,
- 57:08well, well you know, Travis Birds, I'm going to bed. You
- 57:12know what, I got an idea for you, Travis, if you ever
- 57:15need an alarm clock, listen to the show again tape recorded and you want
- 57:19to go ahead. I'll wake up in the morning with my total voice.
- 57:21And I'm going crazy here. And thanks Jvlli the incredible entertainment aspect because all
- 57:27these guys having a blast watching me go off like the motor city Maguth.
- 57:34There you go, all right? But anyway, so anyways, where we
- 57:37at with the asters? Here am I supposed to say something? At the
- 57:40bottom line there should be seventy two. Hold, not fifty four. You
- 57:45have to have a fair you have to have a fair playing field. I
- 57:47understand. But y'all, here's the thing about rom The man took three hundred
- 57:52and fifty million dollars. You can al you can buy an awful lot of
- 57:53bagels at one hundred and fifty million dollars for sure, And you know what,
- 57:59he have all the dough inside of them, and you can and you
- 58:01can twirl them around. Okay, your finger and play with it before you
- 58:06go out there and cut it open and put your favorite cream cheese on there.
- 58:08And by the way, for those people that want to know what kind
- 58:10of cream cheese I like. I like the noble locks. It's suspensing,
- 58:14but boy is it. I'll kid, I'll get that now. You can
- 58:20hear a pin drout. They're all waiting for me to slow down to hold
- 58:24your bread. I'm actually making a caser. I'm loder than steven A Smith.
- 58:30I can make Steven A Smith look like the quietest find and not stick
- 58:34them head on the planet, stick me next to him, and I will
- 58:37see a little louder. And by the way, yeah, I like whipped
- 58:40some whipped cream cheese too. That's pretty good stuff. All right. Any
- 58:45closing thoughts, I know we had a wild show tonight. I probably helped
- 58:47it out a little bit, you know. So anybody want to predict when
- 58:52I'm gonna get to sleep tonight, put it in the chat room fifteen.
- 59:00That's a generous Guess what about you, Candy? Are you going to sleep
- 59:06tonight? Yeah? I don't know. I mean actually, Rocket Scientists has
- 59:12probably closed maybe four am forro I know, I don't know, huh.
- 59:17I guess nobody knows. It depends on when the meds kick in. We'll
- 59:21leave it at that. So mean, well, hope you enjoyed this wild,
- 59:24wild, wild edition of the Sports Exchange. What a crew we have
- 59:29here tonight, man, Candy. We got JB who obviously thinks he's what
- 59:34the live, and the Big Ten okay, and of course the Big ten
- 59:40basketball frauds. I told you that last week, Rod, not good at
- 59:45the tournament, not good at the tournament, but you actually overperformed compared to
- 59:50what people both this year. You know, yeah, they're part of the
- 59:53Big ten. No one would expect them to win a game. They like
- 59:57losing to sixteen seeds. They learn for Virginia, well yeah, yeah,
- 1:00:00right, Well the only difference with Virginia is they want the whole thing.
- 1:00:04So actually, that's the only reason why I predict be Connecticut is I thought
- 1:00:07we'd see a one sixteen and a duplicate. But you know, remember one
- 1:00:13thing. I'm a journalist. I'm not in the prognostication business. So I
- 1:00:16look at it this way. It's my job to give you the information.
- 1:00:19If you bet, it's not my fault. I just give you the info.
- 1:00:22And yeah, I got some great promoters, now, don't I look
- 1:00:24at this. We got rock We got Rocket scientists out there saying pundit funded
- 1:00:30tomorrow. We got Joshua Door talking pundant pundit tomorrow, okay, with the
- 1:00:35same host. I don't know, we'll see Jacob Christper must be out there
- 1:00:38somewhere, you know, insulting. Somebody must be looking at this show saying,
- 1:00:43hey, the legend of Jacob Christner lives on, because we got the
- 1:00:45Jack Grip talking about funded fund it okay, and he left it in my
- 1:00:51hands, hopefully not screw it up. All right, can't even got me
- 1:00:54So wait, we have to address Jonathan Hydek Heidac with the same host Pundit's
- 1:01:00Pundit is hosted by Scott, but on Thursday nights there is also Fire Up

- 1:01:31questions. Don't hold your bread, okay, But meanwhile, that does conclude
- 1:01:37this edition of the Sports of James. But it doesn't because I want everybody

- 1:06:15do something stupid, for the chamber. Once in a while, I do
- 1:06:16tend to forget I muted myself, and when they don't hear me, then
- 1:06:19I feel a little too late in the regular room. But that's right.
- 1:06:24I'm learning to get around the mute button. Just I don't even know how
- 1:06:27to do it, so I don't mute anybody. She does all that business.
