• 3:03
  Speaker 1: West Virginia had the distinction of playing in the very
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: first game back on Friday night, sold out crowd at
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: Iowa State, and West Virginia comes up on the short
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: end of it, which leads to a bunch of questions,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: where exactly are the Mountaineers. Maybe a little tough to
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: figure it out because you're playing an Iowa State team
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: that could it could probably it could win it all
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: in the league. It's definitely going to be in a
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: battle throughout the course of the season. I think you
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: could say without any argument, they're going to be top
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: two or three all year when this thing starts to
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: get after it. So exactly where is West Virginia? We'll
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: get that figured out starting Tuesday night, when West Virginia
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: brings in Cincinnati, a team that is not expected to
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: contend for the crown. You're on your home floor. You'll
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: get a little bit better of an idea.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to say anything.
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: I got all my stuff in the in my segment,
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: so what, But I did pay attention.
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: To your deferring to your opening segment.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: He's become very territorial about this segment. There's the part
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: of the show he participated. Did you did you say?
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: Shuts everything else down? I'll save all my comments for
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: my obvious observations.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Okay, I'll go ahead.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Did you see how he said it? He said? He said?
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: You see how he said? He said? My segment?
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Well, I go.
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: Ahead, just hit the music.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Let him do it. Let him do it.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: So I actually he did a whole page of notes,
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: but I'm not going to do all those notes.
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: So let me just start the hit the music.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Just go ahead, all right, let's do it.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: He's got his son, but that things we already knew.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I had that much hair.
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: Nice connection.
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, here's to you. Yeah, obviously somebody not doing dry January.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Damn hit it, baby.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: I had a whole the whole page in notes, So
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to do that because it just would
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: take too long and it'll probably some of it will
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: get into Brad stuff, even though mine are obvious. But
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: I'll start with this. They have more better players Iowa
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: State does, and Brad. I think when you were setting
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: up the game, you talked about mom Silovich and he
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: pretty good, pretty good player, just knockdown shots, I mean,
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: and Jefferson with a triple double. They just they got guys,
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: you know, they got more guys and they played well.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: And I thought, what was most disappointing to me about that,
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: And look, we knew that Iowa State was better.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: They were seven, like sixteen seventeen point favorite.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: Is that after the first half of the first half,
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: you never felt like the game was in doubt and
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: Iowa State just continued to pull away. So you really
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: didn't match up well at all with them. And coach
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: Hodge said on eurol's postgame he said, which was key.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: When you get open shots against the top five team
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: in the country, you have to make them and have
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: somebody Brad go off and obviously Honor struggled a chance,
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: More had a great game, I mean in the starting lineup,
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: but just did not match up well. And now you
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: have West Virginia's down to seventy two, seventy second in
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: the kim Palm rankings, and as of today, eleven other
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: Big twelve teams are ranked ahead of you in kim Palm.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: So it's just it's just difficult.
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: So I was thinking about Cincinnati and Kansas coming up,
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: and I would not go cliche.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: Although that's my strength in.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: I would not go there on must win, but I
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: would just say this this week or these next two games,
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: have you have some of the best opportunities of what
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: is a difficult schedule. You have better opportunities, then you
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: will have many other nights in this league. I mean,
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: Kansas is coming off the loss to UCF and you
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: know Cincinnati is I think beatable, so even though they
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: gave Houston a run, So you have better opportunities.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: And you need need to mate.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: You need to take advantage of those opportunities. So that's
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: my assummation on WV basketball. WVU women three and zero. Yeah,
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: so good start for them. They survived at one by two.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: Kansas State made free throws down to stretch their congratulations
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: to them all. I don't think we've said Andy kotal
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: Nicki's name in a while. I thought I threw his
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: name in there. So yeah, so he's going back to
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: Kansas from Fenn State going back to Kansas.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: So that's interesting.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: All these all these transfer portals, and I for some
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: reason I got fascinated by that. I'm checking through just
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: looking at all of them. You know, Iowa States lost
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: like six starters.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Six starters, six starters.
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: They start like six guys back, that's sixteen plays. You
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: talk about a fan base and a group that when
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: we were out there, talked to a bunch of bunch
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: of people there that are that close to Iowa State,
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: and they were like, what what is this? You talk
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: about a group that's just not you. State had an
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: unprecedented run of consistent and see keeping Matt Campbell for
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: ten years, which just doesn't happen. They are in a
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: totally new world with all the new people they have
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: coming in.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: Starting quarterback, backup, quarterback, starting running back, starting receiver, two
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: starting linebackers, starting defensive back. Those are the ones I
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: just came up with.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Random with it.
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: They had fourteen people left as of last week, as
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: I really, I'm not exaggerating that number. Yeah, that was
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: the number reported that they had fourteen guys left.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: The staff wise too. I mean, when you say decimated,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: they're starting from scratch.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: But I didn't and I don't know how word is
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: filtering out, but I didn't get many w NIOL names.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: And I don't know what.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: I don't know if they're going to release them or
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: how that comes out. I know there was rumors about
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: a couple of guys and maybe a couple of guys committed,
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: but I didn't.
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: See much news early. It's early, happy tight day, one
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: of the poorlies. There were seventy two signings. I thought,
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: I thought, I thought a prety quick just committed. There'll
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: be more that continually come out here, don't it's early.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: It's all right, it's early Monday, very early Monday, I know.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: But I thought I thought it would be like day.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: Really, I thought it would be boom, that deals were
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: already done and then it would happen.
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: I don't know how you thought deals would be done.
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: They can't contact the man until the total of them.
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: I don't know why you thought deals were done.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: Well, that is true, certainly there was no contact prior
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: to that. And finally the World Darts Championship was excuse me,
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: the World Darts Championship just wrapped up after twenty four
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: days and Luke Luke Littler, Luke Littler of England, Luke
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: Littler of England was the best out of the one
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: hundred and twenty eight member field and he claims the
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: Sid Waddell Trophy.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Of course, Sid Wadell was the voice of darts in England.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: First I've heard of that.
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: And so Luke the Nuke as he's known, claims the
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: one point three million dollar prize.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: He's just eighteen years old. He's a real phenom and darts.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: He won one point three million for one in that day.
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: Yea and one other darts related news, darts star Dom
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: Taylor lost his tour card and was stripped of championship
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: prize money after failing a drug test performance enhancing.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Well, I hope they're not checking for beer. I mean
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: that would be a big problem there failed a drug
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: test and darts. Wow, I guess they saw it at dart,
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: like really flying toward dart board.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: I appreciate you getting that information. That's very good.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: Well I didn't think that. I didn't think World Dart
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: Championship was on your No.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: It was good. We've been into a lot of things.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of things going on there. But as
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Brad said today, this is Monday, the fifth of January,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: You're going to start to see, you know, names, more
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: and more names coming in. The longer. The wait on
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: some does concern you. You don't want them to go
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: and do a whole bunch of visiting to other places
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: because the next place they go to says what was
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: the number? And then you just play that game. So
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: you just hope you get locked them down.
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: It's it's just you have to sort of you're watching
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: this and there's like I think I've looked at this number.
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: I've triple checked the number.
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: Four thousand, yes, correct the report, four thousand players.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: And I'm I don't know why I'm doing it.
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: I'm like going through and looking who's going where names
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: I recognize it is It's crazy. And then you have
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: in the portal. You have what, Well, he's making visits.
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: You know, somebody's going and they're going to visit this
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: school and that's going.
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: I speaking of that, did you see the Oklahoma Lineman graphic?
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: This was of all the graphics that are out there
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: and all the kids, this one kind of caught me.
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: Gave me a chuckle. Here's a kid that played at
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: Oklahoma State last year. I forget his name, offensive Lineman
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: and his people, his agent, him, somebody in his behalf
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: put out his graphic of who his visits would be.
• 11:39
  Speaker 4: Once the portal opened and he had down to his
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: final four visits. He played at Oklahoma State last year.
• 11:45
  Speaker 4: I don't know if I said that, Yeah, you do,
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: he played. I said he played at Oklahoma State. He
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: was there, one of the four schools that had the
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: logos out there, and I forget the other four. He
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: noted that he would be visiting Oklahoma State when the
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: portal opened. Thought, that's kind of a weird way to
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: say that, isn't it.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Yes, it's four thousand kids in the portal. All four
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: thousand are going to be in the NFL, all four thousand.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Their coaches didn't use them right, didn't let them play
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: their game, so they have to go other places.
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: Hey, speaking of players going places, just that Steelers game
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: last night and and Aaron Rodgers had a heck of
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: a game. But I keep thinking because of West Virginia connection.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: But you know who's snapped in the ball and blocked
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: for him and is going to the playoffs?
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: Zach.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: Zach did a fantastic job. I watched a lot of
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: them last night, and.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: It's fun just to watch that game and just watch
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: Zach yep do what he does. So happy for him, certainly.
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: Absolutely this transfer portal stuff though, so Brendan Soresby goes
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: to Texas Tech. Right. I was telling hop here as
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: we took the long elevator ride down to the studio today.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: That's when it just gets so to me, headshaking that
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: here's this kid, he's in your own league at Cincinnati
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: Tech comes out and just gets them a big ass
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: bag of money and just says here, come on over here,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: instantly eligible. And I know I'm saying everything that that's
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: the way that the rules are today, but it's just
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: this bizarre craziness just makes me shake my head and
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: go like what are we doing? And I don't know
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: when the thing is gonna get fixed, but you gotta
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: have some kind It's just this. I mean, there used
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: to be a rule, yeah in the Big East that
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: like if you said, if you transferred within the league,
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: you set out two years. Oh so you never had
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: guys you they would go to other places, but you'd
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: never have guys now. It's just like you're lined up
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: against one guy one year, he's wearing one jersey.
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: That it's just and now and and look in the NFL,
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: it happens, but it's kind of a Ah. You don't
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: usually go to somebody in this diference. You know so
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: same you know, same divisions. So it's just crazy.
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: I have I've heard it said before you're allowed to
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: get better. Yeah, boys, Sores being exams, has to leave
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: his first goal because he didn't play, goes to Cincinnata
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: and thanks to Sworsby, West Virginia beats Cincinnati. Remember he
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: just was gifting the ball all over to West Virginia's
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: defeat him up and then he turns into one year later,
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: he had a fantastic year, at least on paper. I'll
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: be honest, I didn't watch them enough because we didn't
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: play them, so I didn't watch them enough to give
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: you an evaluation, but statistically was really good and turns
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: himself into the number one portal acquisitionn of the most
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: coveted guy in the portal. Amazing allowed to get better though,
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: you are allowed to get better. So we'll say, we'll
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: say tech techer certainly needed to upgrade at that position
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: given what they had defensively, so they think they did
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: it and soars me.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Hoover goes to from TCU to Indiana. This will be also,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: it's an amazing thing. And everyone that's involved with everyone
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: that's involved with college football in making the rules, what
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: rule should should be embarrassed for the last five ten years.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: If you've been involved in leading up to this and
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: didn't have the or sight, you should be embarrassed with
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: what system you've got going right now.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: It's that's what.
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: I say, speaking of Iowa State and always westerni connection
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: of Rockos signs with Penn State, which is probably the
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: least surprising news coming out of the transfer portal.
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but by the way, I I mean Matt Campbell
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: must have had a bus because those guys, most of
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: those guys went to PENNSTA.
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: Well, I think he just had a Brinks truck with
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: some seating in it.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what it was.
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: Probably there's only there's normally the actual cash truck there,
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: just they outfitted it inside with some seating. I think
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: I didn't confirm that.
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: As normally normally only one seat in the back that
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: guard sits back there. There's only one seat normally in
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: the back, so they they retro fitted seat out there
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: and just putting more seats. Can we heard a number?
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: We heard a number while we were at Iowa State.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: What they're going to pay their backup quarterback? Remember that
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: it was stunning seven seven seven large, seven figure really
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: for the large seven figure for the back.
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: Then that's that's not confirmed.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: I'll give you just finally, I'll just give you an
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: old guy thing. Is that you know, Brad and I
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: did twenty Bowl games. We love it. We love the games.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: I love watching the well, I love the three and
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: a half hours. But outside of that, it's driving me
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: a little bit nuts and I'm starting to lose interest
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: in everything.
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: But the games themselves.
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: Well, that's tough off the field, there's no question. But
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: then you turn those playoff games on and that last
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: one with Ole miss and Georgia fantastic. I mean you're
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: just locked in. That was high level drama. And as
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: I say on here all the time, the games always
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: saved the sport, is what it is. The games saved
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: the sport because the games are just awesome up and
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: down the line. The games are just awesome and that's
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: what we love. And yeah, you've got to manage some
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: of the off field, off court stuff, there's no doubt,
• 16:40
  Speaker 4: but the games always saved the sport.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: And the ratings, the views on the non playoff games
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: where us we're tremendous again this year, and there's just
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: people say balls are dead. No, bulls aren't dead. And
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: the attendance is not the big factor at these Bowl games.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: It's how many people are watching, and the numbers are
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: up again. So as a result, those those balls aren't
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: going away. TV networks will continue to pay for those
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Bowl games. Three guys before the Game brought to us

• 18:36
  Speaker 3: what I would give you.
• 18:37

  Speaker 4: about the game.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: So no, no, no, I'm talking about they walk by, they
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: walk with you, step for step as a business owner,
• 18:48

• 19:18
  Speaker 1: all right. So we're going to do a double here
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: breakdown Iowa State preview Cincinnata.
• 19:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll start with the Iowa State and I think
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: first and foremost guys, as we talked going in, that's
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: a that's a tough place to get a win. If
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: I have my numbers right on this, they're forty one
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: and two over their last forty three.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: I think that's right.
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: Forty one and two pretty good. And I was impressed.
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: That's first time I'd been to a game in Hilton
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: Coliseum in decades. Crowd was really good. Students weren't there,
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: It was still loud, it was still packed. It was good.
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: They've got especially their starting lineup is talented. We've got
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: five talented dudes. Bateman I thought was really impressive coming
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: off the bench.
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: You hurt.
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: He was excellent too. So they've got a good team.
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: They're going to be in this game. I guess I
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: at this a little bit different. And yes, you lost
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: by twenty one. So at the end of the day,
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: you weren't good enough, you didn't produce enough, and you
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: didn't walk out with win. I get it. I took
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: a different approach hop okay, and I watched this game
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: maybe a little bit differently in that I thought West Virginia,
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: for a pretty big stretch did exactly what you were
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: trying to do. And I'll get into some numbers that
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: back up what I mean here, but just offensively, that's
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: one of the best defensive teams, not only in the
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: league but nationally. That's a defensive backcourt that many were
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: calling the best defensive backcourt in the country, but certainly
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: in the league. And listen, West Virginia goes into that
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: and if you had told me they'd turn it over
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: twelve times, I would have thought you'd have a chance
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: to win that game. So you didn't get turned over,
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: you didn't have trouble getting into your offense, you got
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: a lot of open shots. And I'll give you some
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: numbers here. I was actually a little bit surprised, given
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: their defensive numbers and what they do to teams and
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: suffocate some teams out how much West Virginia was control
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: the shots they were getting, especially in the entire first half.
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Brad, in two thirds of the first half.
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: You're watching that game, and I thought about you guys,
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: and listening to you guys, is that, Oh, West Virginia's
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: doing exactly what they wanted to.
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: Do at both ends. Go the other way, and we'll
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: talk about Montchilovitch because he's he was outstanding. He was
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: as advertised, and that was there were some breakdowns in
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: that game, there's no doubt. And against really elite teams
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: like that, if you have stretches where you're not buttoned up,
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: they're going to make you pay. And I thought that
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: was the difference in the game. End of the first half,
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: West Virginia had a chance to gain some extra possessions
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: with some rebounds and or some loose balls that were
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: banging around. In the second half, Montchilovitch just got loose
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: too many times and made you pay every time he
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: got loose. And I mean that almost literally. And so
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: against good teams, that's going to open up the lead.
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: They're going to run away from you when you do
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: those things. But I still contend you were closer than
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: you were further away defensively. Other than letting him loose
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: a few times, you were almost right where you are
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: wanted to be. Again, I'll get into some of these numbers.
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: Jefferson triple double. You mentioned it, and he's very, very good,
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: but he didn't just straight bully you, and that's what
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: you were worried about going into that game, that he
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: takes that ball at six' nine and gets ahead of
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: team and goes right at the, Basket and you needed
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: to cut off lanes and play the. Gaps And West
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: virginia did that for the most part, Now AND i
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: Think ross's term afterwards was a good, one especially minus.
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: Below you were missing one of your most valuable players that, covers, defensively, covers, rebounding,
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: covers block shots to erase some. Mistakes you didn't have.
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: Him that was clearly a. Factor But ross said AFTER
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: i thought this term was. Appropriate the game got a
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: little long for, us AND i thought that made. Sense
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: you were in it for stretches, though even when the
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: score wasn't indicating. That and then you just had some.
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: Breakdowns Man chileevitch broke out and had some open. Looks
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: you gave up some dives to the basket late when
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: you were trying to press your defense. Up but you
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: did some things out of there THAT i think you
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: can pull forth and hopefully move into some of these other.
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: Games and saw some good things.
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: Out so we came out of.
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: That SEE i came out of the way And i'd
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: defer to you because you're Not you have more knowledge
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: THAN i. DO i came away from that game not
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: encouraged BECAUSE i felt like it was not in question
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: after the first twelve.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: Minutes but you actually came away more.
• 23:13
  Speaker 4: ENCOURAGED i looked at it the different AND i KNOW
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: i tilt. OPTIMISTIC i get. That So i'm trying to
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: watch the game, saying all, right what did you? Do
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: how did you want to execute this? Game and how
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: much of that did you? Do and the result, matters
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: there's no. Question but, again you're at forty one to
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: two in that, Building so going in there and getting
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: a win wasn't necessarily my. Expectation my expectation was did
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: you look like you did some things that you can
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: pick up and move? Forward AND i thought the answer
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: was yes to. That, now would you like it to be? Closer?
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: Yes would you have liked the score to not be twenty?
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: Yes all of. That but if you go through, here
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: here's the biggest thing that jumped to. Me here's the biggest.
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: Thing you were minus eighteen points from the three point.
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: Line they scored eighteen more points than you did from.
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: Three it was really minus twenty. ONE a mere hit
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: of second, three with like three point six on the,
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: clock you basically were minus twenty one from the three point.
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: Line would you lose by twenty? ONE i mean that
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: to me was the, Difference and again you can't erase.
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: That but if you look across most other, categories they
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: are really. Even and SO i walked away not as
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: discouraged as you normally. Would now you got to find
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: a way to pick some of that performance up and
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: move it forward and then get better in a couple of,
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: areas no.
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: Doubt not rebounds, though right you got out, rebounded especially you.
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: Did but some of that, again some of that's because
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: you missed so many. Shots, okay so they had opportunities
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: to get more rebounds when you look at those offensive,
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: rebounds and it was the end of the first half
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: where that got away AND i was ACTUALLY i combined
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: these two. Categories there were a bunch of deflections That
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: West Virginia got's part of WHY i didn't think the
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: defense was as bad maybe as the score. Indicates you
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: got a lot of deflected balls that you just didn't
• 24:53
  Speaker 4: get your hands, on that you just didn't. Corral and
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: those are those thin margin for air things in these
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: games against elite teams that you can't do. That there
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: can't be seven tip balls that you don't. Get there
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: can't be those offensive rebounds at the end of the first.
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: Half but like if you look at second chance, points
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: they only got eleven second chance points on their twelve. Rebounds,
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: well you don't want to give up twelve offention, rebounds
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: but only eleven second chance points isn't. Awful you only
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: lost that category by, two and you are missing your
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: best offensive rebounder In Brendan, Laurian so there's some of
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: that that you have to play into this as. Well,
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: again go down these. Numbers you scored more at the
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: free throw, line indeed they. Did they only had one
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: less turnover than you. Did you only lost points off
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: turnovers by two total. Rebounds we just went through that
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: second chance. Points you only lost by two points in
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: the paint only minus, six and you didn't have one
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: of your paint scores fast break. Points And i'm gonna
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: get to some numbers in this only a minus four.
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: Deficit so they're a better team than you right, now
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: there's no doubt about. That but that three point line
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: really changed that game. Significantly, guys if on our huffs
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: one of eight from, Three west virgin is gonna have
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: a tough time winning the. Game that's just the matter
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: of fact of. That West virginia had made double digit
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: threes in its last three, games and you were right.
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: There you should have Beaten Ohio state and you won
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: the other two. Games that was just the biggest. Difference
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: they have one of the very best shooters in the,
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: country might be the best shooter in the, country and
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: he was blistering. Hot you have one of the best
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: shooters in the country on certain, nights the best shooter
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: in the, country and he didn't have a great. Night
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: that's just how that. Works how often do we say.
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: It you got to make shots hot And West virginia
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: just did. Not but it was that three point category
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: that was really. Big West virginia had seven unguarded catch and.
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: SHOOTS i actually thought they had, more but let's just
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: go with what the numbers. Showed scored only three points
• 26:42
  Speaker 4: off those seven unguarded, shots so you had a chance
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: for twenty one points. There you got three second fewest all,
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: year the fewest when you had open, looks and you
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: only scored less points than that was Against Wake forest another.
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: Game you were around. It you just didn't make the.
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: Shots and what did they. Have they had a kid
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: in AN nba guy And Duke harris that made his.
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: Shots it was the. Difference, AGAIN i mentioned those twelve.
• 27:05
  Speaker 4: Turnovers you're right where you had to. Be how about?
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: This this surprised. ME i, mean you could see it
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: happening during the. Game but if you had told me
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: this back on our preview, EPISODE i would have, said
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: you're going to be right. There West virginia actually had
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: more live ball turnovers Than Iowa state. Did West virginia
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: created more live ball turnovers Than Iowa state. Did that's
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: right where you wanted to be. Hopin and if you
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: look for improvement within the, season which you're trying to
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: do Against Wake, forest you did not handle that. WELL
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: a similar type of, defense that hard jumping and double
• 27:35
  Speaker 4: teaming at the, ball he didn't handle it. Well West
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: virginia adjusted its game plan a little bit going into
• 27:40
  Speaker 4: this game to account for, that and then executed and
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: handled that. Part for the most, part you were moving
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: the ball and getting, looks just didn't get him to.
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: Fall that's part of that. Issue here's One West virginia
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: was one of five from three off live ball. Turnovers
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: so one of the Things West virginia wanted to do
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: to game hobby when they got a live ball, turnover
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: they wanted to push the pace a little, bit which
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: is not normally What West virginia. Does you want to
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: limit possessions and slow the, pace but those situations they
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: wanted to push a little bit in order to get
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: a good clean look Before Iowa state set its defense. Up,
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: Now West virginia had been one of the very best
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: in the country at making threes off live ball turnovers
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: forty six percent from three coming into the. Game in those,
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: situations you went one of, five so you were below
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: what you normally. Did you hit a couple more of,
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: those maybe you're in the game. Longer you're still in
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: the eighty seventh percentile nationally in three point field goal
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: percentage off live ball. Turnovers so it's a Category West
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: virginia's good. At it was not good Against Iowa. State
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: part of the, ISSUE i was just some other. Outliers
• 28:46
  Speaker 4: i'm just kind of all over the place with. These
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: But Iowa state had made nine corner threes in its
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: previous thirteen. Games it made four Against West. Virginia so
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: it found a hole and it was able to attack
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: that spot and did something that it hadn't done all,
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: year which, again good teams are going to. Do they're
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: going to adjust and do some. Things you had the
• 29:03
  Speaker 4: pace right where you wanted it to. Be that game
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: was played at your pace for the bulk of the. Game,
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: again a lot of that was due to the lack
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: of turnovers By West. Virginia Iowa state had its fewest
• 29:14
  Speaker 4: transition possessions in any game this season and its third
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: fewest points in transition this. Season that was one of the.
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: Keys you wanted to slow them, down keep it at your.
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: Pace you, Did he's on a, row he, Is let's
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: go to, defense your, defense because AGAIN i, THOUGHT i
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: know you gave up eighty AND i know Mum chilovich
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: went bananas and you can't erase. Those you did a
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: lot of other things pretty, well But Iowa state made
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: its second most threes in a game all. Season Iowa
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: state had its second most points off guarded catch and
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: shoots this, Season so again it got some open looks
• 29:56
  Speaker 4: and it made you pay each, time almost something that
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: it hadn't done all, season and at that, level that
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: was the second fewest on guarded catching shoots they've had
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: in the game all, year the second fewest they've had all,
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: year but they had the second most points they've had all.
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: Year another EXAMPLE i keep screaming, about there's got to
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: be regression. Coming West virginia didn't allow many open. Shots
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: they made you pay almost every.
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: Time that was one of the rare times where their
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: warm ups were a precursor to how they're going to.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: SHOOT i was Watching Mom chilovich warm up and it was. Breathtaking.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: Really he just kept stroking all the way around the,
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: floor just kept stroking three after three after. Three then
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: guess what happened when the game. Started he continued just
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: to knock him. Down lots of times you'll see guys warm,
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: up don't, miss game comes bang, bang, bang doesn't go
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: the same. Way that was one of the great shooting
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: Performances i've ever.
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: Seen he was, Unbelievable but those numbers jumped to. Me
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: hop second fewest they've had all year in terms of open,
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: shots but the second most points out of. That here's
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: another one WHEN i was talking about hop where you
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: did almost everything you wanted to do save for a
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: couple categories that were the killers that cost you the.
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: Game But Iowa state came into this game top four
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: percent nationally in points per possession with the pick and
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: roll ball, handler so one of the very elite, teams
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: and that's multiple different. Guys they were also top two
• 31:18
  Speaker 4: percent nationally points per possession with the pick and roll,
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: Man so that's a tough. Combination they're great with the ball,
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: handler they're great with the. Rollman some of That's, buchanan
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: some of It's jefferson in either. Location but how about.
• 31:30
  Speaker 4: This you held them to just point six to three
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: points per possession with the pick and roll ball, handler
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: well below their season average point six to. Three they
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: were up well over one point per, possession so you
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: cut that almost in. Half you held them to point
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: five points per possession on the pick and roll, man
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: almost half of their season. Average so in that category you,
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: did that was one of the things you had to cut.
• 31:53
  Speaker 4: Off you had to cut off that lane and cut
• 31:55
  Speaker 4: off their ability to just go straight down the middle
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: of the floor on. You now again they took advantage
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: of it by switching what they do and made more.
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: Threes so those are really insightful, numbers and they give
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: you a little bit more encouragement THAN i gave. You
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: but but What i'm hearing is you did almost everything
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: you wanted to do and still got beat twenty and
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: one of the and you didn't make but you didn't make,
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: Shots so you got to MAKE i mean, so in other,
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: words to Beat, tony to be competitive with, these with
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: these teams and talking about all these good teams in the,
• 32:28
  Speaker 3: league you have to do all these things and have
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: a good night. Shooting like everything has to. Work there's
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: no margin for there's zero margin for.
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: Air that's. League that's WHAT i. Mean, yeah there's very
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: little margin for error for. Anybody cincinnati Had houston down
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: most of the, game, yeah and then lost Because houston's
• 32:46
  Speaker 4: a very good. Team, Well i'll say, this when we
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: get to The cincinnati, preview you're gonna look At cincinnati's
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: record and, Go, okay here's What's. Fornia they got. This
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: cincinnati's very. Good there's not one game in this league
• 32:56
  Speaker 4: Where i'm gonna come in here in a preview and, Go,
• 32:58
  Speaker 4: okay you got, It you're good to. It, yeah don't
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: worry if you go out and miss some, shots don't
• 33:02
  Speaker 4: worry about. It you still got. It it's going to
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: be every.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: Night it's a shot making. Game number. One the thing
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: that took me a back On friday night was when
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: we were in here for the last. Show we use
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: the term here comes big boy. Basketball West virginia was
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: not ready for big boy. Basketball West virginia got big
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: boyd fifty to fifty balls went To Iowa, state loose hand,
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: rebounds balls getting slapped. Away brad mentioned those. Deflections we
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: were not on the. Ground this team has to play
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: with a reckless abandon a. Physicality they have got to
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: get every loose. Ball there needs to be heads on
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: the floor going after. Balls it's not. There that drives me.
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: Crazy jefferson at one time was double team stepped right through,
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: it took the ball to the. Basket you got to hammer.
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: People this is a, physical physical. League and you look
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: back at when we've been, successful we have been the
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: more physical. Team we've been the hammer. Tougher, yeah we've been.
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: Tougher we weren't. Tougher and if this team doesn't get
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: tougher real, quick, right it's going to be a, long long.
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: Season you better get tough because every game is going
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: to be that.
• 34:18
  Speaker 4: Game one other, note, right now that again you pick
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: up and you try and move, forward And i'll say it,
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: again you were Missing, laurent which was a big, deal.
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: Guys and here's. Why it's a six' nine guy that
• 34:33
  Speaker 4: would have guarded What was, jefferson's height, Six nine so
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: you would have been able to match. Their freak that's
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: a freak Dude. In jefferson and how he is a
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: point forward and brings the ball up and. Initiates, offense
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: well you would have had. An athlete, that's right it's
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: a better Athlete than jefferson and can go on the
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: perimeter and give him some problems that would have that
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: might have made a difference there that might have eliminated
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: some of his. Playmaking Ability, number two you in this,
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: particular game you were going to run a lot of
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: your Offense Through brendan lorian because he would have been
• 35:05
  Speaker 4: the one at the, high post so you avoid that double,
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: team trap and you would have been feeding into that,
• 35:10
  Speaker 4: high post a guy that we've seen lead this team
• 35:12
  Speaker 4: and assists in a. Game before that would have made.
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: A difference it would have given you another guy that
• 35:16
  Speaker 4: can hit that little mid, lane floater another guy that
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: can get to, The basket so that's. A factor you
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: can't just dismiss that you went in with one. Less
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: dude here's one Last number i'll leave. You With west
• 35:27
  Speaker 4: virginia had a averaged a higher point per Possession Versus
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: iowa State than. Purdue did purdue's the number one team
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: in offensive efficiency. This season you have games sometimes hop
• 35:41
  Speaker 4: where the ball doesn't go in.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: The basket They.
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: Smothered perdue They Gave All American, braden smith who will
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: be a First Team all, american again his season high
• 35:49
  Speaker 4: in turnovers maybe a. Career High west virginia had a
• 35:52
  Speaker 4: better points per possession Average than. Purdue Did west virginia
• 35:55
  Speaker 4: had a better points per possession Average Against iowa State than.
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: Creighton did it's a Top six the offense usually better.
• 36:01
  Speaker 4: Than that they had a better points per Possession than.
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: Syracuse did i'm going through the power for Teams That iowa.
• 36:06
  Speaker 4: States played iowa had a better points per Possession Against
• 36:11
  Speaker 4: iowa State Than west, virginia did but only by three
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: one hundreds of. A point iowa's twenty fifth in the
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: country in. Offensive efficiency all, of that you did all
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: of that while not making, your threes while missing, open
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: shots while not making as many as you, normally do
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: and you still ended up with. Those numbers and THAT'S why,
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: i Say hop yes she got beat By, Twenty yes
• 36:31
  Speaker 4: Mom chi levitch lit. You, up yes you weren't tough
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: enough and strong enough to get the. Loose balls there's
• 36:35
  Speaker 4: a lot to, work on and you've got a long way.
• 36:37
  Speaker 4: To go but there were also some things that you.
• 36:39
  Speaker 4: PICK up. I don't i didn't look at that game and, just,
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: go well. That's it didn't do anything, RIGHT now, i
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: agree there were some things that in there that if
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: you can replicate those and continue, to improve, all right
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: you got a lot of basketball left here.
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: This team and this team will and this team will.
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: Get better think. About this that's also the very first
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: time that that team has been in a true. Road
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: game we've played neutral up, until now a true road
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: game against one of the nation's. BEST teams, i mean
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: the thing you can't take Away From. Iowa state they
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: Went to purdue and beat them by twenty three Points
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: when purdue was number one in. The nation so When
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: This iowa state team, is clicking. They're superb now there's
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: gonna be some nights where. They're not but when they're
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: Clicking in chilovich. Is hot you've got a very. Limited
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: chance could that score have? Been, better yeah it could have.
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: BEEN better i. Don't know it would have taken a
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: herculean Effort For west virginia. To win But Could west
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: virginia have played and had they gone and been really
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: physical and gotten those. Loose balls it's probably a seven
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: to ten, point game not a twenty one. Point game
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: but there's. Room there there's a Room For. West virginia

• 38:58
  Speaker 1: Than that let's jump. Been Here cincinnati bearcats. Come in
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: they lost at Home. To houston as, you said it
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: was a. Tight game it could have gone either way
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: right to the. Very End, But, Houston. Uh houston who
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: will talk about? Next week h they're good and news
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: break they're good and they were able to finish.
• 39:20
  Speaker 4: The deal hard to win, this, League man cincinnati was.
• 39:22
  Speaker 4: Right there as, you said you're going to get another
• 39:24
  Speaker 4: really good defensive, team here sixth nationally in. Defensive efficiency
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: this has the potential to be one of those rock
• 39:31
  Speaker 4: fight type. Of Games Right, WEST virginia's i, would think
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: is going to bounce back with some physicality and some
• 39:36
  Speaker 4: toughness in, this One and cincinnati is going to come
• 39:38
  Speaker 4: in here and try and try and. Bully you so
• 39:41
  Speaker 4: he've been a, lead defensively they have really, Struggled offensively
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: so this would be all right if they'd take another
• 39:45
  Speaker 4: day and struggle. Again offensively this is not ONE where
• 39:48
  Speaker 4: I hope i don't Come in thursday, and, Go well
• 39:50
  Speaker 4: i'm gonna tell. You what cincinnati made the most trees
• 39:52
  Speaker 4: they've made in any. GAME before a couple of times
• 39:56
  Speaker 4: we see against opponents copy. They have they have been
• 39:58
  Speaker 4: really they have. Really struggle two hundred and fifteenth nationally and.
• 40:02
  Speaker 4: OFFENSIVE efficiency i think one of the big keys in
• 40:05
  Speaker 4: this IS again i could use this every, every NIGHT
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: but i think it's going to be a big one.
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: This one, this game the three point variants will likely.
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: Determine this these are two Teams In west Virginia and
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: cincinnata that take fewer shots at the rim than only
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: One other big. Twelve team this kind of. Surprised me
• 40:22
  Speaker 4: houston takes the fewest shots at the rim in.
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: The league what's?
• 40:24
  Speaker 4: That mean at, the rim all shots go to the
• 40:27
  Speaker 4: rim layups within within? Three, Feet okay cincinnati takes the
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: second most above the, break threes so wings and top of.
• 40:36
  Speaker 4: The key cincinnta takes the second most of those shots in,
• 40:40
  Speaker 4: the league and the second most corner threes in. The
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: league they are in the ninety first percentile in three
• 40:46
  Speaker 4: point field goal attempts. Per game they're gonna let, it
• 40:50
  Speaker 4: go yet in the twenty eighth percentile in three. Point
• 40:55
  Speaker 4: percentage so they take a lot of threes and have made.
• 40:58
  Speaker 4: Very few they're just thirty two percent from three point
• 41:02
  Speaker 4: land two hundred and sixty, second nationally so basically bottom.
• 41:05
  Speaker 4: One hundred that's part a big reason why they went
• 41:08
  Speaker 4: And Added gigsel james off the. Waiver wire did you
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: know you could?
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: Do that the.
• 41:15
  Speaker 4: Roster people a roster, spot hobby and you need to.
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: Add somebody they, look around, they said you, Know What
• 41:21
  Speaker 4: gigsel james has been with. Us before he is he
• 41:23

• 41:29
  Speaker 4: off their. PRACTICE squad i didn't know if he. Had
• 41:31
  Speaker 4: that he've been practicing. With them they elevated him from the.
• 41:34
  Speaker 4: Practice squad he hadn't. Played yet, hot okay gives them.
• 41:36
  Speaker 4: Another shooter he's shooting forty percent from three in. LIMITED
• 41:40
  Speaker 4: games i don't know if they've had any other waiver
• 41:42
  Speaker 4: wire Pickups, since Saturday But gigsel james was a nice addition.
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: For them we saw him.
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: Last year, you know some people actually take what we
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: say on this show to be. Like truth there is
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: not a, waiver wire.
• 41:52
  Speaker 4: There's not no how'd they?

• 44:40
  Speaker 1: Like to go?
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: What's the?
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: Game seven. Eastern seven eastern it's a. Very common start
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: seven eastern will.
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: Be on there i'll Tell you What i'm gonna i'd love.
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: To Have you maybe i'm just as ross would love.
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: TO have YOU.
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: I would i would like to.
• 44:54
  Speaker 4: See, The game okay cincinnati wants to. Shoot it quickly
• 44:57
  Speaker 4: ninety second percentile and percentage of shots that come in
• 45:00
  Speaker 4: the first ten seconds of.
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: The shot, clock oh oh.
• 45:04
  Speaker 4: Only twentieth percentile when it comes to the points per
• 45:07
  Speaker 4: chance or points per possession on. Those early shots so just,
• 45:10
  Speaker 4: like their threes and a lot of, those are threes
• 45:12
  Speaker 4: they're trying to, shoot it quickly but they're not having a.
• 45:14
  Speaker 4: Lot of success let's continue that because here's a stat.
• 45:17
  Speaker 4: That concerns me if it continues. Hot, first percent well let,
• 45:23
  Speaker 4: me back up if you can get them to shoot
• 45:26
  Speaker 4: it late in, the Shot Clock which west virginia, likes
• 45:28
  Speaker 4: to do eliminate that first, look for them make them
• 45:30
  Speaker 4: have to. Run their offense they're just in the first
• 45:33
  Speaker 4: percentile nationally in points per chance in the last ten seconds.
• 45:37
  Speaker 4: Of the clock they're only shooting twenty nine percent from
• 45:40
  Speaker 4: two and just sixteen percent from three late, In that
• 45:43
  Speaker 4: clock so that's going to be a. Good push pull
• 45:45
  Speaker 4: do they come down and just fire shots or can
• 45:48
  Speaker 4: you force them to have to run a little bit
• 45:50
  Speaker 4: of their offense because they have not been good. At
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: That lately west virginia's defense is ninety fifth percentile in
• 45:56
  Speaker 4: opponents points per chance in the last ten seconds, Of the,
• 45:59
  Speaker 4: clock so yeah it just can? You do that can
• 46:01
  Speaker 4: you keep them or if they want to go ahead and,
• 46:03
  Speaker 4: shoot it early can they be difficult contested shots and
• 46:06
  Speaker 4: you go. Get the rebound keep an eye on, this
• 46:08
  Speaker 4: stat though this is a. Little Bit worrisome west virginia's
• 46:12
  Speaker 4: opponents are shooting forty three percent from three in the
• 46:15
  Speaker 4: first ten seconds. Of the clock that's just in the,
• 46:18
  Speaker 4: Fifth percentile nationally so You're getting a cincinnati team that
• 46:21
  Speaker 4: wants to shoot it quickly and will take threes forty
• 46:24
  Speaker 4: one percent of their shots in the, first ten seconds
• 46:27
  Speaker 4: or Threes Against a west virginia team that's seen opponents
• 46:30
  Speaker 4: have success early in the clock before its defense gets sets,
• 46:33
  Speaker 4: up set up so could use some regression right. There
• 46:36
  Speaker 4: as well cincinnati's Last In the big twelve and free
• 46:39
  Speaker 4: throw percentage. Sixty four, percent in fact they're one of the.
• 46:42
  Speaker 4: Worst teams nationally only twenty teams are worse in the
• 46:47
  Speaker 4: country on. Free throw percentage but. Here's What's interesting hop
• 46:50
  Speaker 4: You know how i'm. Talking about regression how MANY times
• 46:52
  Speaker 4: have i? Said it today where you don't give up very,
• 46:54
  Speaker 4: many open shots but, when you do your opponents. Are
• 46:56
  Speaker 4: hitting them this is an, uncontrollable stat defensively but it
• 47:00
  Speaker 4: goes on. Your defensive resume you have nothing to. Do
• 47:02
  Speaker 4: with it you're just standing there watching the other team.
• 47:04
  Speaker 4: Shoot Free throws west virginia's opponents are shooting seventy four
• 47:08
  Speaker 4: percent from the, free throw line top, One hundred nationally
• 47:10
  Speaker 4: so even bad free throw shooting teams have stepped in
• 47:13
  Speaker 4: for the most part and made Free Throws. Against west
• 47:15
  Speaker 4: virginia at some point you hope those numbers start to change.
• 47:18
  Speaker 4: A little bit a couple last things then. We'll move
• 47:21
  Speaker 4: along cincinnati seventh defensive nationally. And defensive rebounds so We
• 47:27
  Speaker 4: Talked about west virginia's got to find some opportunities on.
• 47:30
  Speaker 4: That offensive glass this may be a tough game. To
• 47:33
  Speaker 4: do It the Aforementioned bob ab miller has been awesome
• 47:36
  Speaker 4: here number one nationally out of twenty three hundred players in,
• 47:40
  Speaker 4: defensive rebound. Percentage number one. He's a dude he cleans
• 47:43
  Speaker 4: the glass, some foot. Tall six eleven they also Have
• 47:46
  Speaker 4: the Aforementioned mustafa cham he's in the top seven percent
• 47:49
  Speaker 4: of all players nationally. And defensive rebounding it Looked like
• 47:53
  Speaker 4: against houston they played those two together a lot more
• 47:56
  Speaker 4: so they may try and throw some size at you.
• 47:59
  Speaker 4: Coming up tomorrow cincinnati does a good job at forcing.
• 48:02
  Speaker 4: Live ball turnovers they're, seventy third percentile but they don't,
• 48:05
  Speaker 4: convert very often just in the forty first percentile trying
• 48:09
  Speaker 4: to convert off that they're lasting the big twelve in
• 48:12
  Speaker 4: points per chance off. Live ball, turnovers so again always
• 48:15
  Speaker 4: important Hop when wester rdine's playing with, limited possessions offensively
• 48:19
  Speaker 4: you've got to keep those turnovers down or it's a.
• 48:21
  Speaker 4: Recipe for disaster they like to shoot the threes off,
• 48:25
  Speaker 4: live ball turnovers but not, shooting it well just twenty
• 48:28
  Speaker 4: seven percent from three.
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: In those situations they're three point field goal percentage defense is.
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: A little scary they're Third in the big. Twelve right
• 48:35
  Speaker 1: now they're only allowing thirty percent to be shot against
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: them from. Three Point range west virginia's fifteenth, in that
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: category giving up. Thirty five percent st out of the, Game,
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: right there well honors.
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: Do, after STRUGGLING yeah that, I aoway stated.
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: So what's can palm have the? Number To be? West
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: VIRGINIA wins bye, a couple three?
• 48:58
  Speaker 4: Four four one LAST number that i. Found this interesting
• 49:02
  Speaker 4: they've only scored twelve points on baseline out of bounds
• 49:06
  Speaker 4: plays in the. Last eight, games excuse me only twelve
• 49:09

  Speaker 1: LIKE busting people i just that's not. Going to, happen
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: last one we have a whole, team of coaches but
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: you would think any of them could explain to us
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: simple minded fans who have watched basketball for between thirty
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: to sixty years exactly what our. Offensive strategy is we
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: play further away from the basket Than any team. I've
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: EVER watched while i understand they're Trying to get honor
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: some looks he can't. Win, Games alone yes chance will
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: at least, drive the basket but no. ONE else will
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: i really don't. Get the strategy players are handcuffed. Timid
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: on offense we can't get to the free throw line
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: if we don't consistently. Drive, the Ball also when honor
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: and the, Other freshman guard jenkins are into, the same
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: time is when. Things go bad two small guys can't
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: guard the larger players to get stops. Or, get rebounds.
• 56:08
  Speaker 3: Well when you, Spread, the offense brad what does that
• 56:12
  Speaker 3: do to the? Other team's defense.
• 56:13
  Speaker 4: Spreads it out And, that's, part so, yeah thank you
• 56:15
  Speaker 4: that's part of. What you're doing there's floor. Spacing is
• 56:17
  Speaker 4: important you're, trying to spread you're, trying to isolate you're
• 56:20
  Speaker 4: trying to, get individual matchups picking. Rolls very big in order,
• 56:23
  Speaker 4: to do that you've got to have some. Spacing. OUT
• 56:25
  Speaker 4: there listen i know it can look rough when, you're
• 56:27
  Speaker 4: Missing Shots and west virginia plays a style, that's slower
• 56:31
  Speaker 4: paced so that at times when you're, playing slower paced
• 56:35
  Speaker 4: and then you have a night when you're, NOT making
• 56:36
  Speaker 4: shots i get where you, could, say like oh this,
• 56:38
  Speaker 4: sound very pretty, which is true this number, may surprise
• 56:44
  Speaker 4: YOU and maybe i should. Explain this MORE the reason
• 56:47
  Speaker 4: i go to points per possession so off and hop
• 56:50
  Speaker 4: it neutralizes and balances out the stat where it's. Points
• 56:54
  Speaker 4: per game so a lot of coaches go to, points
• 56:57
  Speaker 4: per possession both offensively and defensively to find out how your.
• 57:00
  Speaker 4: Stuff is working for lack of a better way, to
• 57:03
  Speaker 4: Describe It it's ross. Hodge's, favorite statistic offensively he'll go
• 57:06
  Speaker 4: to what's? Our point possession and he's very VERSED in
• 57:09
  Speaker 4: the i mean he'll know after the game immediately what.
• 57:11
  Speaker 4: Each one was this number may surprise you About This
• 57:14
  Speaker 4: particular west virginia offense that so far as a team
• 57:19
  Speaker 4: isn't shooting it AS well as i think they can shoot.
• 57:21
  Speaker 4: It from three they're definitely not shooting free throws as
• 57:24
  Speaker 4: well as you think they. Can shoot it so those are.
• 57:26
  Speaker 4: Two big things hop if you're not shooting elite from
• 57:29
  Speaker 4: three and you're not making a lot, of free throws
• 57:31
  Speaker 4: your points per possession are going to be down. A
• 57:33
  Speaker 4: little bit those are two easy ways to kick that
• 57:35
  Speaker 4: number way, up given that given you're not shooting from either,
• 57:38
  Speaker 4: Of THOSE spots like i think this team is capable,
• 57:41
  Speaker 4: a Couple things or i'll just. Give you one i've got.
• 57:43
  Speaker 4: A couple SATs i'm just going to give YOU one
• 57:44
  Speaker 4: because i. FOUND this interesting i looked for the last
• 57:49
  Speaker 4: Season In which west virginia's points per possession offensively was
• 57:53
  Speaker 4: higher than what it is right now. In, this moment
• 57:56
  Speaker 4: now there's a lot, of season left maybe it goes
• 57:58
  Speaker 4: lower over the course. Of a season but as we,
• 58:00
  Speaker 4: sit here today starting conference, play one game in comparing
• 58:03
  Speaker 4: It To where west virginia has been through its recent
• 58:06
  Speaker 4: history and, points per possession where does this team rank?
• 58:10
  Speaker 4: In offensive efficiency this. MAY surprise you i had to
• 58:14
  Speaker 4: go all the way back to two, thousand and five
• 58:17
  Speaker 4: two thousand and six to find the Last Time a
• 58:20
  Speaker 4: west virginia team had a higher points per possession offensively
• 58:24
  Speaker 4: than they currently, do right now, hmm, Interesting, surprising right
• 58:28
  Speaker 4: yeah that's a. Long TIME back so i say all
• 58:31
  Speaker 4: that to, say this offense it was part of my
• 58:35
  Speaker 4: POINT of it's i think it's closer than it. Is
• 58:37
  Speaker 4: further away a few, more threes fall tracing gets, unlocked
• 58:42
  Speaker 4: more consistently you make a few, more FREE throws and
• 58:45
  Speaker 4: i think this offense is going to look. Different at,
• 58:47
  Speaker 4: times but yeah when you miss a, lot of shots
• 58:49
  Speaker 4: and you miss a, lot of threes there's no doubt
• 58:51
  Speaker 4: it can look. Ugly at times and the.
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: Thing about basketball is you get a lot of quick
• 58:56
