• 3:01
  Speaker 1: the games are ended for the Mountaineer basketball teams, but
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: as everyone knows, last Tuesday the portal opens, so immediately
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: you get an influx of more than two thousand basketball players.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: Nearly half of the entire group of college basketball players
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: put their name in the portal. Nearly half of them did,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: and so now they are looking for new homes, and
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: we'll get into what West Virginia has done and is doing.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: Bad news for some of those guys A large chunk
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: of those guys, and that is they will not take
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: a step up. They will either have to go laterally
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: or drop down a division. And personally, I'm wondering how
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: long that will last, how many years it will take
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: before a theme comes over these guys and they go like,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: you know what, the grass isn't always greener on the
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: other side, I should stay put. But that's for another day. Well, also,

  Speaker 2: Efforting.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: So I also have been remiss even though we've been
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: on recording here for a couple of minutes. Big botch
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: on my part. The single biggest name next to Rory
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: McElroy this weekend in Sport was Miles Sadler. Oh again,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: you talk again like I'm watching it and I'm saying
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: to myself, you can't script the pr and the boost
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: that he and wv wvu's basketball program is getting last
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: two weeks. In particular, last two weeks he wins the
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: World's Championship. Two weeks ago. He plays in the Nike
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: World Summit this weekend, Saturday night, ten o'clock Eastern seven
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: out there in Portland. He plays representing the world team
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: against Team USA, against the single best players in that
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: age group that are going into college. So anybody who's everybody,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: I mean the highest McDonald's all Americans. You got the
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: best of the best of the best of the best.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: It's not even close. And if you had any idea
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: or wonder when you were watching him play a week
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: ago just because you may not be familiar with those
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: teams and went like, okay, but like, what's level of competition? Well,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Saturday just ended all of that as far as how
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: does he rank among the best of the best in
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: his age group, because the thing that took me was
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: that despite the length that they have guarding him, I
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: still have not seen anyone stay in front of him.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: Have not now again against high level competition. So I've
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: seen four games now over two weeks. You're right, you
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: can't stay in front of the.
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: Dude now again. I will never not double negative, I
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: will never not invoke my philosophy after the Jonathan Harte
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: situation more than twenty years ago. I'm not going to
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: predict what he is going to do here, but I
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: will simply say this that he is going to be
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: a really really interesting piece to this puzzle, and he
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: could be he potentially could be just a while.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Bunch of things.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: Twenty nine and seven, first of all, is what he
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: had and almost got that World team to a victory
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: there in overtime. Just fun to watch. The thing that
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: impresses me the most is to your point, you can't
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: stay in front of him, but he always looks he
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: doesn't look like he's moving as fast as he's moving
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: his control and handle and ability to place the ball
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: in the right spots. Is there a better lob thrower
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: right now? College or high school?
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: I don't care where you go.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Dude, just puts it right there, like what in every
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: big man? Just go like, I want to play with that. Dude,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: he's going to put it up to the rim.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: I get pointed, well, O Sarui was a beneficiary who
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: played in the World Game. Was his bella Vista teammate
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: listed top five right now for next year's class.
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Wouldn't be a bad.
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: Edition if you get that time, it would be a
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: bad efforting efforting. So it was just it's been a
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: joy to watch him, but it's it's been a ton
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: of publicshity. You're right, they've said West Virginia or Mountaineers
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: or Ross Hodge a billion times in those four games.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: John fann I was a little.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: Excited, giddy. That qualifies as giddy.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: And Robbie Hummel, who is I think is extremely good.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: He was the color analyst on the broadcast on Saturday night,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: and he is more reserved by his nature, and even
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: he was going like, oh.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: There wasn't anybody that watched that that was commenting on
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: that that didn't say Saddler was one of the best
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: performers in that game, just full stop. Yeah, tremendous. Can't
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: wait to get him on campus.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: All right, so you're gonna break down, You're gonna do
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: numbers on the recruits.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, look at that.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: We're not gonna mention that. That means there's only one thing.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: It means there's only time for one thing. Right now,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: we're gonna get started. We're organized on this show. Baby
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: one two, one, two three.
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: He's got thoughts that sound brand new, but the things
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: we already knew.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: You gotta being bomb ready, Heaven knows.
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: Let's take it quick before it's obvious.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: Ovation.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: Let's do it obvious observations are not sponsored. Obviously.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: Let's talk economics.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Huh, it's a sports show. Don't try to bring that
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: talk line rhetoric into this show.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: Let's talk economics because the portal is all about economics.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: It is a marketplace, and it is to a large
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: degree of free market. And I looked up like I
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: got off my bookshelf this morning.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Boy, here we go.
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: You get on the ladder in the library to climb
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: up or was this at eye level level?
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: Was the dust?
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: Economist Thomas Sowell, sure soul. He said, this life does
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: not give us what we want bread, it presents us
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: with options. Economics is one of the ways of trying
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: to make sense of those options. So that's what this
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: that's what the portal is all about.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: So now we have this marketplace for these athletes, and
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: there are three basic scenarios. The first is that the
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: buyer and the seller, the coach and the player, that
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: they agree on a fair price.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: That the that the buyer that the coach thinks, Brad,
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: you're worth a certain amount of bread. You think you're
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: worth a certain amount, and you agree. And now I.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: Would say this, coaches do not believe what they're paying
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: these kids. That's true. They I'm just telling you. I'm
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: just you're right. Your point is were correct, But coaches
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: are a gas at how much they have to pay
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: to get these kids go ahead.
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: I understand, but they ultimately but they have in their
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: mind what they agree to pay. Okay, they may resent that,
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: but we also have in mind a number.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: They know the number.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: So there is so when you land a player, the
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: best case scenario is that the player and the coach
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: agree that in this in this marketplace, that this is
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: a level of fairness, okay, for both, for both the
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: coach and.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: The player agent whoever. Okay.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: So, and that's obviously, and you'll talk about some of
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: these recruits. Obviously you've gotten there with some of these
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: recruits like bis Jack and which we'll talk about and
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: Saddler those guys. But you did not with DJ Thomas, right,
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: did not, which brings us to the second scenario. Now,
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: the second scenario, actually Thomas will be the third scenario.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: But the second scenario is this. It may be the
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: buyer the coach and the seller the player. Maybe the
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: coach agrees that the player is worth a certain amount
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: in the marketplace. Make up a number. Let's say the
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: coach is, yeah, in the marketplace, this player can probably
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: get a million dollars, but I can't afford that, okay.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: So that's another scenari is there's agreement on the value,
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: but the payer just can't afford it, or doesn't want
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: to afford it, or doesn't want to afford it for
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: a variety of reasons. Yes, that's the second sentary. The
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: third scenario I think with Thomas Falls is this is
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: that the player overvalues his worth. Okay, that the player
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: thinks I'm worth a million dollars and the coach says,
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: I don't think you are. I don't think I don't
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: want to pay you that, and I don't think the
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: marketplace will reflect that, or the marketplace may not think
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: you're worth a million dollars. So there's a disconnect there
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: between what the player thinks he or she is worth
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: and what anybody is willing to pay. So right now,
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: in some cases, bred it feels like players have an advantage.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: You have guys getting five to six million dollars, they can
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: demand whatever they want. So some cases, the high end
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: players I think have an advantage, and they may have
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: an advantage if a team is about if a coach
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: is about to panic, you know, gosh, I got to
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: fill a roster, or just doesn't do their budget very well.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: So there's there's other things that factor in here. I mean,
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: think about Hackerdy PJ. Haggerty's going to do his fifteen
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: and last year was asking for four MILLI got two
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: and a half of Kansas State. So do you get
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: four million four and a half four million dollars at
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: Texas A and.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: M is fifteen. So fifteen, that's it. We need to
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: You just need to spend more time on that one.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: My dude is in his fifth school. Anyway, go ahead.
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: So this, this is this marketplace which I think, which
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: I think is fascinating, and I guess one day we'll
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: sort of, well, we'll sort itself out one way or another.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: Right now, I think a lot of players have an advantage, okay,
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: because there's only so many top tier players, but you
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: said it, Tony, here's more than two thousand players in
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: the portal. Some of those have overvalued what they're worth
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: and they're going to get a lesson in the free market.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: Correct they can need a lesson. They say, well, I
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: think I'm worth this, and nobody thinks that that is
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: how that's how the market works. So I think all
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: this is just it's just a fascinating, fascinating time and
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: I hope that everybody, players included, and maybe there's some
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: misguided agents are figuring out the marketplace. You know, a
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: guy like Thomas and I'm just not to pick on him,
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: but he could have stayed here and over the course
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: of a career, made himself probably between one and a
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: half and two million dollars maybe more, maybe more. That's
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: pretty good. That's pretty good, you know, so especially if
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: you figure, okay, after taxes, now, after I pay my
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: agent and you know, cost what I.
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: Come out of there with a chunk of change. He
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: also may get that in a year or two. He
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: might That's the flip side of that there exactly. I
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: would think you could argue there's a lot more money
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: in the marketplace than there are players worthy of those
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: big numbers. There may be, I mean, there's there's a
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: lot of money in the marketplace, and there's some guys
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: getting some big numbers. So it's not just the players
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: that are gonna find that out. There's gonna be some
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: schools that overpaid for some guys. Yes, you probably saw
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: some deals this weekend. We're at the end of the year.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: Schools are going to go eah. Yeah, I probably wasn't
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: right price. Yes, that is always going to happen. And
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: you see that in professional sports all the time. Player
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: signs a big deal and then they don't get the
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: production production that they thought. That that happens in college.
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: Well, think about it. I mean, the all due respect
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: but the Washington Wizards have to pay somebody the most
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: on their team. They have some max contracts on that team.
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: Is their performance indicative of anybody worth a max contract?
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: No?
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: No, so oh yes, yeah yeah. I just used basketball
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: as an example.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: Go ahead, up. So that's just it. I think again,
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: I think there are generally three scenarios taking place right now,
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: and we're still in the early stages of this market place,
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: and you know, we'll see what it looks like in
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: a couple of years. But I just think it's fascinating.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: I do think you're starting to see more of an
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: evolution as to how schools are slotting, yes, their rosters
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: and so schools are now looking at it and insane.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: I have X amount of dollars and I'm going to
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: pay my starters this figure. I'm going two of my
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: guys are going to get this figure in this figure.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: The other three guys are going to get this figure,
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: this figure, in this figure, which at big level basketball,
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: they are all over seven figures. There's seven figures and
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: above for your five starters. So any team you see
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: next year in the Big twelve Conference, I'd say probably
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: a ninety percent probability that each of those players on
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: that floor is making a million or more dollars, and
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: then schools have to decide, Okay, how much am I
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: paying my sixth, my seventh, and my eighth, and is
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: that where I'm stopping? Am I going to pay eight guys?
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: And then nine through fifteen are going to get a scholarship,
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: but they're not going to get any additional dollars.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: And also in relation to that, you could go out
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: and you could go like WVU could go out and
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: they could pay a guy in men's they could pay them,
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: you know, five or six conceivably they won't but million
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: dollars and the women's maybe pay somebody megion dollars. You
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: could do that, but the problem is you'd have no
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: money left for everything else, correct, So you'd be screwed.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: If fact and that that person got hurt, you'd have nothing.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: So you can't do that. As you said, Tony, got okay,
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: I got this much money. This person's going to start,
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: and this person averages this. This is my expectation for them,
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: and this is what this is what I'm slotting with
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: a little bit of ever, a little bit of movement
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: on that. So that's what we are in this is
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: the marketplace. Now we'll probably talk about WU baseball. We
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: mentioned that, I mean they got two out of three
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: of Texas Tech. Now, finally, fifty five years ago, this week,
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: fifty five years ago, this week, April nineteen seventy one,
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: In fact, it was yesterday was the anniversary the song
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: country Roads was released, written by Taffy Nyvert, Bill dan Off,
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: John Denver. They famously were not in West Virginia when
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: they wrote the song, had not been to West Virginia
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: there when Gaysersburg, Maryland, and I read an interview with
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: Bill Danoff. He just said, look, I'm a songwriter. I
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: was looking for things that worked. Taffy Nivert originally wanted
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: to call the song Rhododendron. Couldn't get anything to rhyme
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: with it, like that's tough to get into a song
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: brand like rhoda dendre. Okay, it doesn't really work. Danoff
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: said he was thinking about growing up in New England
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: and thinking about small roads. He said, quote it didn't
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: have anything to do with Maryland or any place. But
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: he added that the word quote the radio reminds me
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: of my home far away is a reference to Saturday
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: Nights Jamboree on WWVA Wow, which you'd listened.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: To almost Heaven Rhode to Dendron.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean so. The song Beach number two on
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: the Billboard Top one hundred, behind the number one song
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: How Can You Mend a Broken Heart by.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: The Bejes couldn't get over the Gibbs.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you this, one of those two songs has
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: lasted a lot longer. Yeah, and it's Country, which John
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: Denver was killed in the plane crash tragically in nineteen
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: ninety seventy. He was just fifty three. Bill Danoff's still alive,
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: he's seventy nine, and Taffy Iverts still alive. She's eighty one.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: I've met build Out. You met Building I have to Yeah, Yeah,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: I met him.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: Well, they were here, Yeah, they sang. I got a
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: quick I got interviewed both of them and notoriously stalked
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: John Denver and got a comment from him.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: But Danoff also wrote Afternoon Delight.
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: They were well, he and Taffy first name basis we're
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: in the Starland, the Starland's vocal vocal. Sure. Anyway, fifty
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: five years, Brad, that song has been around and going strong,
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: going really strong.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe more.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: Popular today than it was when it hit number two.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Probably probably certainly more well known internationally. Internationally they played
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: it like sporting events overseas like all the time.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's fantastic. That's good stuff, Hoppy, thank you. Yeah,
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: that's all I got.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: Some of that stuff is not obvious, Hoppy brings you.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, you got got an economist in there that
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: wasn't very obvious stuff. No, taffy build dan Off.
• 20:56
  Speaker 2: Here's here's what can I give you? The other soul quote.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: In a market economy, those who get the direct benefit
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: of an individual's work decide how much they are willing
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: to pay for what they received.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: Right, say that again.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: In a market economy, which is what we have, those
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: who get the direct benefit, that is, the team, the
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: coach of an individual's work, decide how much they are
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: willing to pay, how much they are willing to pay
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: for what they receive. Your value, your value, and I'm
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: talking about it not as a human, but as an entity,
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: as a player, as a commodity. Your value is only
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: what someone else is willing to pay you. That is
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: your value, Tony. You grew up in a store, you
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: know that.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that Initially, a lot of people get
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: emotionally attached to particular players at their school, and so
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: when someone leaves, it hurts them more. Or if a
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: school does not come up with dollars for a player
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: that you know, a fan would like to see captain.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: And this is a little bit you know, it's cold
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: and it's callous, but all this is is business. Yep.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, like, you can still like the player that's leaving,
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: you can like them as a person, but like the
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: bottom line is, you're trying to build a roster to
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: give you the optimum opportunity to win games, because that's
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: what makes the whole drink get stirred. Right. The head
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: coach needs to win in order to keep his job.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: So what coaches and staffs are doing is they're trying
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: to build their absolute best roster to maximize the amount
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: of wins they can get. So even if it's someone
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: that I really truly like and love, you're not You're
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: not what I need right now in my opinion, you
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: can miss on some of those. But that's that's the route.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: That's the world that we're living.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: In right now.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, three guys, before the game is brought to us

• 23:41
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, Well go ahead, it's already been a

• 23:46
  Speaker 3: Had the occasion this weekend.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, where'd you go to.
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: Our friends up at Cafe a Lavario here in Morgantown,
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: Cheat Lake. Sure, yeah, sure, got in there. Had a
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: special request that was coming soon to the menu, but
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: not quite on the menu.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: What would that be?
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: We worked it out, they said, coming soon.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: It's coming soon to the actual on the menu.
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: They're going to write it down. That is correct, what's
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: going to say Renfredo. Ren Fredo will be an actual
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: menu item. I ordered it this weekend. It was a
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: little test, Jake. Can we show a picture of the
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: renfredo this week so you can see how I like
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: everything together? Yes, Like I started to shock, I started
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: to I was starving. I started to dive in before
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: I got so there. You see a little bit of
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: the pasta.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: Put that.
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: Put that back up there, Jake. You get a little
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: bit of the pasta over on top of the Yeah,
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: I did the chicken parm version, not the veal parmesan.
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: Could have done either. You see the alfredo sauce rather
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: than the red sauce on top of the pasta and
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: the chicken. Tony's name, Renfredo is becoming a thing and
• 24:51
  Speaker 3: catching steam, catching steam.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: So that would make your brother in law crazy, right, Yeah,
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: well your brother in law he individualizes everything, nothing can
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: touch any correct.
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: But you'd have two parts. You'd have the Italian in
• 25:02
  Speaker 3: him would lose his mind like you do. Yeah, blasphemous
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: to get the red sauce out of there. And then secondly,
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: because I have combined everything. But it's it's coming soon
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: to the menu area.
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: It is, it's having a moment's well, I think I
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: think it's just Oh, I think it's gonna go. I
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: think it's gonna go. You were, by the way, that's
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: a big play of food.
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: There only did half. I was very proud of myself.
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: Really a rare moment where I hit were you ill? Yeah,
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: I know, rare moment. I know it was very good.
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: So thank you to Patrick, the folks there, and we'll
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: we'll go up and enjoy.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: One here soon. Three guys, three guys before The game
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: is also brought to us by lou Wendell Marine Sales.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: They happen to be the largest pontoon boat dealer in
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: the state of West Virginia family owned for four decades,
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: which makes all of us know they've stood the test
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: of time. That the only Honda Marine premium dealership in
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: the state of West Virginia. And they have that brand
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: new Hondam clearing racing motor that I think has got
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: like four hundred and two thousand horse power or a
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: little bit less than that. But if you're in the
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: mood and in the need, whether it's boat service or
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: time to buy a new craft, or any kind of supplies,
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: visit lou Wendellmarine Sales dot com. That's lou Wendel Marine
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: Sales dot com. What are you laughing about?
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: Can I just make a couple of comments where we
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: do spreads on sets?
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: I would imagine, I mean, yeah, so.
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: We mentioned Sadler speaking of having a moment having one.
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: Does his snub from the McDonald's All American Game enter
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: the great Mountaineer snubs of all time?
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: It was an advanced It was an advanced.
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: Kenvin Jones, biggiest player there should have had it, Gino Smith,
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: offensive player there, and the bigies should have add it.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: Two hose jobs Stedman, how Stedman didn't get the bullet
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: and Coffie ear he had a twelve touchdowns terrible. I
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: think I think Miles McDonald's goes right into the category
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: of that, not a McDonald's All American.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: We've get it together, Like we've talked to people right
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: about that last week and they said, basically, it's just
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: a political colt.
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: A lot of that comes into play apparently.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: But I mean, you got sneaker companies have.
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: Others, dude, but should have been to McDonald's America.
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: They just just come here and make a mark. Forget
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: about it.
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: Still, it would be it would be nice. It would
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: be nice. She's from Canada probably like he probably want
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: to be on the Tim Hortons All Americans.
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: A right, good, whatever, you're right, just come here and
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: let everybody happen. And then we'll continue to say he
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: got snubbed as McDonald's All America, which he did forever.
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: You want to talk baseball for a minute before we
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: to dive totally into the numbers.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: But one second, give me this for a second. As
• 27:28

• 27:49
  Speaker 1: to be there, I understand the ballpark is beautiful. It's
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: a new facility. And from what I understand, talk to
• 27:57

  Speaker 1: him so, okay so that's also interesting for a.
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: Shooter he'll get in the lane, though, Too he'll get in.
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: There so top four percent nationally points per possession IN.
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: ISOs now it was a limited possession. Side most of
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: what he'll be really good coming off, screens ribble. Handoffs

  Speaker 3: Dallas here's a good number two sixty one percent from
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: three in transition when he was not the ball, handler
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: so when he was filling the, wing sixty one percent
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: from three in. Transition so if you like the transition,
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: three which a lot of teams, do because you're not
• 40:45
  Speaker 3: setting up the, defense hop you can get some good
• 40:48
  Speaker 3: Looks he was really good last year in that.
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: Category so do you think there's a possibility That West
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: virginia could secure a rebound outlet To sadler who flies
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: the ball up the floor and Hits bizjack on an
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: open wing three and it goes swish with think.
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: You will see that and you will probably say that
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: exact line multiple.
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: Times it happened.
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: ONCE i also think this is the first piece in
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: Surrounding Miles, sadler who we just said people have trouble
• 41:15
  Speaker 3: staying in front. Of sadler gets feet in the paint
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: and a Kickout bizjack on the, wing, bang knock it.
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: Down he was fifty three percent from three from the right,
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: corner thirty eight percent from the top of the key from,
• 41:27
  Speaker 3: Three so it's a shooter, wonders but can also get
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: in there bring some good. Size last year he played
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: a lot of point guard due to injury At, butler
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: he's more of an off ball. Guy, Obviously sadler's gonna
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: have the ball in his hands the, bulk but this
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: is also a guy that can initiate offense if you need. Be,
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: Now i'll give you these next, numbers but just take
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: them with a grain of. SALT i am not saying
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: he will be these, guys BUT i am saying, statistically.
• 41:51

• 43:31
  Speaker 3: a statistical profile of. Guys this was a good team
• 43:34
  Speaker 3: and you look down what the positions were and how
• 43:36
  Speaker 3: it was spread. Out hop they did a great job with.
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: That they're off to a good. Start you've got your
• 43:41
  Speaker 3: point guard In Miles. Sadler you've got a wing that
• 43:45

• 43:52
  Speaker 3: perimeter shooter and is a really good catch and shoot
• 43:54
  Speaker 3: shooter as. Well so when you get penetration and, kicks

  Speaker 2: About, his Health, well, on thomas yeah you want, To
• 57:49
  Speaker 2: keep HIM but as i said on, the economics question there's.
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: A difference, there you know what you think you're worth
• 57:56
  Speaker 2: versus what you're able or. Willing to pay as.
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: Far as me, jenkins's health Goes it's totally tba's had
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: one shoulder operated on already and still has another. One
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: to do so that's just day by. Day by, DAY
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: texas says i AM sure that i will get, flamed
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: for this but these guys. Are not mountaineers they simply
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: are year TO year. Tbt aau mercenaries so simply we're
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: the uniform and at tend the minimum number. Of online
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: classes so why do we send them to Things. Like
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: the crown one hundred percent of our time and resources
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: should be spent on winning the conference and making and ADVANCING.
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: In the ncaa sure the, guys had, fun but honestly
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: no One Outside of west virginia will remember we. Won
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: this tournament it obviously didn't help develop players, for next
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: season so what is the point and beating some other
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: bottom tier power for teams and it also ran Tournament
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: signed By. GRANT from PARKERSBURG.
• 58:53
  Speaker 2: I just i don't see. IT that, WAY i mean
• 58:55
  Speaker 2: i wish there that there Were some limitation tony on

• 59:03
  Speaker 2: the haggardy. Thing is nuts five schools, in five years
• 59:07
  Speaker 2: that to me is the extreme and what is. THE
• 59:09
  Speaker 2: right number i don't know, what That is but i'd
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: like to see some. Control over that at, the same
• 59:15
  Speaker 2: time this was like we come back to these. WERE
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: great guys i loved, watching, These guys right these guys
• 59:23
  Speaker 2: were fun and That Tournament, was West virginia as i've,
• 59:26
  Speaker 2: said several times got more exposure in that tournament Because
• 59:32
  Speaker 2: of how. Fox did it then you would have gotten
• 59:34
  Speaker 2: getting lost in the sixty four to sixty eight teams
• 59:37
  Speaker 2: of the first or second ROUND. Of, the ncaa yeah a.
• 59:39
  Speaker 3: Couple of things again with the standard disclaimer that you
• 59:41
  Speaker 3: always want to BE in, the ncaa tournament that it's
• 59:44
  Speaker 3: hard to argue, this wasn't fun not only for the guys,
• 59:46
  Speaker 3: that were involved But Fans of west. Virginia, basketball now
• 59:49
  Speaker 3: grant if you, Didn't enjoy, It, i'm sorry, okay that's
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: fine but there was. Some great exposure talk to somebody
• 59:55
  Speaker 3: close to the program that mentioned the exposure that that
• 59:58
  Speaker 3: is getting has. Helped in recruiting it has helped. Raise
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 3: the profile as, you're going out you wear one of
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 3: the last teams, to win something and there were, people
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 3: paying attention.
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 2: And it did it did move.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 3: The BRAND forward So i disagree grant. From that Perspective
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 3: here's what i'll say about PLAYERS lose and. I get
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 3: it i get where that's exhausting for fans to have
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 3: to relearn. EVERY single year i GUESS the way i
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 3: try and, look, at It guys and i'm. WITH everybody
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 3: else i would love if there, was some carryover if,
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 3: it could work that you could see guys play. For
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 3: multiple years some of our favorite players here are guys
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 3: that we watched grow up. In this program that's a
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 3: bummer if that. Has gone away, the FLIP side what
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 3: i try and do is these. Guys come in there's
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 3: been some unbelievable dudes come through here, for one year
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 3: and not just guys that we get to, know and
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 3: like but. Some unbelievable performances You Get a javon small
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 3: and the season, that he Had Or an honor Huff.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 3: In particular hobby those are two of the all time
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: great seasons that, anybody's put together and if the system
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 3: weren't the, way it is you wouldn't have got an opportunity.
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 3: To SEE those so i try and take those, into
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 3: account too while balancing the disappointment that guys aren't staying more.
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 3: THAN a year a lot of times the guys that
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 3: are coming, into the program that are choosing, to be
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 3: here especially those that come in for, their final year
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 3: have given us some unbelievable performances the last couple of.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 2: Years As well sit, By the way fox viewership peaked
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 2: at one point one eight million average nine hundred and
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 2: fifty Thousand, viewers on fox up sixteen percent over last
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 2: year and up and thirty six PERCENT over the nit
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 2: thirty six percent higher THAN. The n i so you
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 2: got significant national exposure.
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: In, THAT tournament yeah I think to brad's, Point and
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: grant i'm not going to make you, change your mind.
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: That's completely fine but you went in as an, eighteen
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: win team you leave as a twenty. One win team
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: and when it, comes to recruiting those types of numbers.
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 1: Sell i e an agent can pitch to a, prospect,
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: And Say look, ross hodge went he Did This at
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: north texas in his First Year. At west virginia they won,
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: twenty one games They. Won the, crown there's. Momentum it's
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: building so it, does Add value, as brad said to
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: your perception and to where the. Program is, going BUT again,
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: As i said i'm not going to. Change your Mind and, to,
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: brad's point yeah it would be great if you could,
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: get some retention but that right now, in THIS world as,
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: i just said there's. Two thousand kids It's Not a.
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: West virginia problem there's two thousand plus kids. In the
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: portal this is. Happening absolutely everywhere it's just part of
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: what the world.
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 3: Is right, now one note one note about how crazy this.
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 3: Current environment is this did, not happen before and it's. Part,
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 3: of why yes there's some teams out, spending everybody else
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 3: but there is. Some leveling off kansas lost the defensive
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 3: player of the year. To another school dude Chose, to
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 3: lose Kansas to leave kansas to. Go somewhere else He
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 3: was the big twelve defensive player. Of the year that
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 3: wasn't happening ten Years. Ago to kansas they were coming
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 3: in getting whatever, or they wanted doing whatever they needed
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 3: to do to. Get their rusher they weren't having dudes,
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 3: say to, them thank. You appreciate you I'm out and i'm.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 3: Going over here that's. Where you are kentucky's roster is
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 3: running out the. Door right now that did not happen.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 3: In the, past ye truly is everybody.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 2: A Guys leaving duke One of the duke players is
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 2: leaving AND in the acc ninety seven players are in
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 2: the PORTAL or the. ACC ninety seven.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: I mean we've we've we've hinted or. Talked about this
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: i'll just say it. Plain is simple schools that were
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: cheating BEFORE there was nil have leveled off in. Their. Winning,
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: PERCENTAGES yeah, so i mean just do the if you
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: think there was a school out there that, Was, cheating
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: before okay go back look at their winning percentage before
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: THIS portal and, Nil kicked in and when other teams
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: and schools are now. Able to pay it neutralized that
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: and those winning percentages of the schools that were can
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 1: we say EARLY, adopters of niol their winning percentages are. Down,
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: mm hmmmm okay this is. Plain and simple now the
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: field has.
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 2: Leveled the herd the hard, PART will be i think
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 2: with the way, things are now you can be and
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 2: should be in the top tier of the league and
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 2: go to THE n. Cua a tournament the challenge will
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 2: be can you get to? The elite level can you Get?
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 2: To the arizonas and that is that's a that's a
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 2: different that's.
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 3: A different challenge i'm not, sure YOU can but, i
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 3: would argue hop it's the same challenge, that's always existed
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 3: and teams were able.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 1: To do that.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 3: Oh you weren't you weren't winning with those teams that were,
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 3: early adopters either and teams were still breaking through getting to.
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 3: The final four, so it's yes. It's still possible is, It,
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 3: a challenge yeah it's. Always been challenge that's a hard freaking.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 3: Tournament to win that's the bottom line. Of, that thing
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 3: cheating paying. Whatever you want that's a hard tournament to
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 3: advance down the road in.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: Incredibly hard one sentence from this text to remember it
• 1:05:08
