  Speaker 2: you turned, like if you were a kid that like, hey,
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: I scored a thousand points. By the time you got

  Speaker 2: to the bar, it was like midnight. There's so many
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: guys on line, you know.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's twelve of them now over two thousand, that's
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: what I mean. And then one that had three thousand
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: was here too. Yeah. That was pretty wild.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna throw something at you here. My son
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: does a podcast, it's a women's basketball with Magan Gower
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: of her hoop stats and this was through play on
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: last Wednesday.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: All right, we'll talk turnovers. Ye, now they're more, you
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: know more.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: They happen more in women's basketball than men's basketball. But
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: through games Wednesday, the amount of teams, the amount of
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: times there were twenty five plus turnovers in a game,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: It's happened twelve times in men's games this year. I
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: want to take a stab on how many times it's
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: happened in women's games like this is through like last
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: middle of the last week.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: How many happened in MEN'SI.
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: Twelve twenty five plus over fifty? How about four hundred
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: and forty five?
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: He got there from one of his sid friends who
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: has has all the stats. That's that's wild, that's wild.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: But you know what, all those kids responsible for those
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: four hundred and forty five, they're going to be in
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: the portal because they think they're not getting enough playing time.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: It even tappens to the best of them.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: I mean, what do they care? Where they have their turnovers?
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: Where they are now, where they're going.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: Isn't that wild? Though? Just to think that's.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Well, I say that all the time, though, you know,
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: I say, listen, you know, you're kind of this is
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: kind of sport. It's like half sport half entertainment, right,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: people buy a ticket, they want to come to the game.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: You know, if you think about it, if you've been
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: a Yukon fan for the last thirty years, generally speaking,
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: you get your car and you're driving up to the game,
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: and you go, hey, you want to go up and
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: see Ukon women's basketball. Do you think let's see if
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: they're going to win, Like we win like ninety percent
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: of the games we play at home. So it's not
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: about do you think they're going to weigh this go,
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: it's let's go watch and be entertained about how they play,
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: you know, like do some things that make us go wow?
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: You know? So I said, so if you keep bouncing
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: the ball off each other's heads when you pass the ball,
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: these people at some point are going to go my
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: grandson does that. Actually he probably doesn't, but my granddaughter,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: According to stats, my granddaughter does that. So I could
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: go home and watch it at home. So you have
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: to be good enough that people see things that they
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: ordinarily wouldn't see if they were watching you know, low
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: level basketball. So I'm always on them about this stuff,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: you know, and I don't know it goes in one
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: air out the other.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: But I feel like.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: It's my job to say it.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Although you're inside the top ten of least teams that
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: turn the ball over, but I'll just drive eleven.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Our assistant turnover ratio is number one in the country.
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that it is.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: But we're three hundred and fifty out of three hundred
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: and fifty three and free throws attempted.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: Funny you bring that up because you've got the.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: Three hundred and fifty out of three hundred and fifty three.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, that's that's staggering.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: You know, because a majority of my team they're allergic
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: to contact, to anybody being near them. I don't know
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: what deodorant they use, but they don't want anybody near them.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: So embarrassing.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Here's a staggering When I was doing prep for the
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Paul and Paul's of course Wednesday. You know, Jerry Allen
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: is having a marvelous year for De Paul. She went
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: to Indiana for a year, came to play for Doug.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: She's gone through a myriad of injuries, but she's having
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: a phenomenal last year.
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: Age almost twenty wins a game.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: She has made one hundred and forty five free throws
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: this year out of one to seventy one, so she's
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: eighty five percent. You know how many free throws your
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: team has made entirely one hundred and fifty two.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: I was gonna say fifty two. Yeah, you said one
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: hundred and fifty.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: One hundred and fifty two out of two oh eight.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: So you're up over seventy up to seventy three percent
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: now because you were in the uper sixties for a while.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: But it's just the fact that it's just a low number.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: But you are making more free throws now than the
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: opposition now, because that was because usually for you, it's
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: it's you make more free throws of the opposing team.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: Normally it takes.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: We went twenty years where the number of free throws
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: we made was more than the number you took. But
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: that's when we have players that would like hit you
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: and then score. Now we have guys that like don't
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: want to be touched and try to score. So it's
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: a whole different, whole, different ball of wax.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: You know, are they calling enofiles on your team in
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: your mind?
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: Probably?
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think you have to put yourself in
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: position to get fout. I think you have to make
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: the official blow the whistle.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: That's why I try to tell them, this is a
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: coaching right. When you're on defense, you don't want the
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: ref to blow the whistle, all right, because it's going
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: to go against you and you're putting in the hands
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: of the official. If you're an offense, you want the
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: official to blow to whistle every single possession. Take your chances,
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: you know. So do we do that enough? Do we
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: put ourselves in position to make the official blow the whistle? No,
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: although Page gets fouled more than any good player in
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: the country and they don't call it, but we talk.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: But she lets them know after every shot that she
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: doesn't get fault, so they don't like her to begin with,
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: and now she's getting no calls. Then she wants me
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: to get technicals to back her up, Like, why don't
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: you get technicals to stick up for me? I said,
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: why don't you stop whining and then I'll stick.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: Up for you.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: You were quite animated on Saturday, you know. We don't
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: get to sit next to the bench up much. By
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: the way, you set a nice screen for the play
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: by play guy.
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: I appreciate that.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's okay, I mean that was good at that.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: I'm the one who ducks bobs and weeds. I'm supposed
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: to do that. The official officials do down this.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: On the other side, when I'm calling games over there,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: mister Paul Team, they're not even your big sisters to
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: Paul Team. I mean, I don't recognize the style of play.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: I mean when Doug's there, I mean they're jacking up
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: thirty three is a game. They only make five threes
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: per game. Miss the Paul Team. It's a very different
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: look to.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: Them this year.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, you know, you have to go with
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: what you have, you know, and generally, you know, they
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: recruited a lot of really good three point shooters and
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: that's been there. Their thing has always been full core,
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: press the whole game, and shoot as many threes as
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: you can. And now I don't think they press as much,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: and they certainly don't shoot as many threes. And yet
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: what are they fourth in their league?
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they're six and three now.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: So considering they've been playing without their head coach, I
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: think Joe Pozzatti, who's their assistant, is now acting head coach.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: I think she's done a phenomenal job. She should be
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Coach of the Year. I mean they've they've and they've
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: gotten better and better and better every week. So yeah, No,
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: it's a different De Paul team. They play a different style.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: You know, they're leading the league. They're leading the league
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: in offensive rebounds.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: That they do well last. Well, your field goal percentage
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: is number one. I'm sure there's some correlation there.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but we're last in offensive evoun Yeah, because every
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: time we shoot, everybody goes that's in and they run back,
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: and theoretically the only person who should think it's in
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: is the shooter. Everybody else should think I'm gonna go
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: get an offensive evound. So I told Jenna, I said, Jenna, like,
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: do you know how many times we throw the ball
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: to you? She goes, not enough. I said, Well, you
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: don't scream and yell for the ball enough. You just
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: stand there, Like I said, so if you call for
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: the ball more, I said, but I bet you we
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: throw you the ball sixty five times a game. She goes,
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: what I said, how many shots we take? So that's
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: a pass to you, go get it. They don't think
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: like that. If you're a post player, you got to
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: think like that. You're gotta think every time. One of
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: my teammates shoots the ball, that's a pass to me.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: Go get it off the glass, score and get out
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: the great ones. Jamel Elliott, that's what she.
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: Thought, and swaying in to make Asian.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, those guys. Yeah, you know when we beat
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Oklahoma in the National Championship game in two thousand and two,
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: any think about.
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: We have Sue and d You didn't make a three
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: in that game.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: We did not make a three in that game. We
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: won because those guys just chase down every miss. That's
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: sometimes you got to win that way. You know. Sometimes
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: it's pretty, but sometimes it's got to be gritty.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: That's it, all right, Moral Gino the Women's Basketball Coaches
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Show Live Accaffie are in Manchester here on Learfield.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: Stay with us.
