  Speaker 2: So I'm like, sounds like you, I know, I said,

  Speaker 2: what a miserable guy, And then he said it sounds
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: like you, I know exactly. I mean, you go to
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: like the toughest place in the league to win, and
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: they get a win a tie, and then they get
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: the extra point right right for the shootout. Yeah, and
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: he's still not happy they gave him.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: They gave him fifty three shots on Saturday. That's a

• 0:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he should enjoy his life more. He should
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: enjoy his team more. What's wrong with him?
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Who's talking over here? Kids hertably, But here we are.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: You know, comes every year Senior Day Sunday. I know,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: season's almost over. Two weeks from today, the regular season's over.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: That's crazy to think. Yeah.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: I just said that to the team today. I said,
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: it feels like yesterday that we were down at the
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: Naval Academy playing Louisville and the season opener. Now, I
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: was saying it to remind them that Louisville had dropped
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: out of the top twenty five, and now Louisville's in
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: the top ten. I said, so they are not the
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: same team that we played at the Naval Academy. Oh
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: you well, I said, that's the whole point. At this
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: point in the season, you cannot be the same team
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: that you were back in November.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: In fact, a year ago tonight it was a Sunday
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: albeit your season changed. You beat South Carolina down there
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: and everything a year.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Ago tonight, Yeah, the sixteenth.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, think about that. That game entirely changed your season.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: It seemed, of course, there was a little build up
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Providence first in Saint John's, but then nobody saw that coming.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: But here's the funny part, because I didn't see this
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: till afterwards. You were on game day that day because
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: it was a live show, Yeah, and you mentioned to
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: the crew that you really liked your team when it
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: came to march your team's chances. Yeah, and then what
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: followed in those two hours afterwards was eye opening, you know,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: jaw dropping. It's like, nobody makes thirteen threes against South Carolina,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: but you did. Yeah, rebounded a big time. I mean,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: there was just some screwy numbers that you would see
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: in other games, but South Carolina down there, No, that
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: doesn't happen. But you did the whole season. Everything pointed
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: in the right direction for the next month and a half.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, sometimes it just it just catches you a little
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: bit by surprise. But for whatever reason, last year's team,
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: because they had never won at the level that they
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: wanted to win at, we get to the final four.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: It's like Page has been to the final four every
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: year she played at Yuka. The year she didn't play,
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: we didn't go to the final four. So every year
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: she played, we were in the final four. And every
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: year she played, we went to the final four. And
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: we lost, so in their mind like, yeah, we're good
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: enough to get to the Finnal four, but we're not
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: good enough to win it. And I remember saying the page,
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: I said, well, because you keep doing the same thing
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: every year, so until you start to operate differently, you're
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: going to get the same results all the time. And
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: it's weird. You know today's today's kids like you can't
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: you can't really like go at them and challenge them
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: like you could, you know, with d and you know
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Renee and May and those guys were you you know,
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Stephanie Dowson and you could just you could say things
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: to the end that would really piss them off, and
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: they would just want to rip somebody's face off. You know,
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: one thing I realized last year, right around this time,
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: is you can't do that to today's players. Cannot You
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: have to remind them all the time how great they are,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: you do you have to tell them all the time,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: you guys are great. South Carolina is not any good.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: We're gonna kill.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Them, Yeah, let's go get them.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: That's kind of what they want to hear. Okay, because
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: for Notre Dame, I said, look, those guys, they're like
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: you know, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. You know,
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: and we're going to go up there in the crowd
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: and all this, and you know, we got to be
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: tough for them, you know, the whole week, like, yeah,
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna piss them off like we did d and
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: those guys. And they went up there and they went, yeah, okay.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: So the coach said, we're going to get our ask caed.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: So we got our ascie. So I'm glad they But
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: but here's the problem with coaching my team. If they
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: listened to me and do exactly what I say. All right,
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: So I said Notre Dame was going to be this,
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: and I scared them. Then I said, I think we're
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: going to We're going to kill South Carolina, and we do.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: At least they're listening to me. But then they come
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: out for the press conference after we played Tennessee and
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: somebody said what the coach saidt halftime that changed the
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: whole thing, and two out of the three of them go,
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't remember what the hell kind
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: of answer is A Luckily Sarah Strong bailed them mount.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: You know, coach A, you're talking about this past Tennessee game.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Yes, the past Tennessee game. Yeah. So it's like, well,
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: you listening to me or you're not listening to it.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: I remember that, Yeah, Like how do you come out of.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: Here and go I don't remember. Even if you don't remember,
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: lies say something.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: All right, we'll take a quick break or get a
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: few thoughts on Senior Day with Gino when we come
• 6:22
