  Speaker 1: it was dog gone boating time. It was real close

  Speaker 1: to us by Tutors Biscuit World. Start your day the
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: homemade way with a Tutor's biscuit. A lot of people
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: are starting to get a little cocky, by the way
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: on these Tutors biscuits.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: What does that mean?
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Well, we've kind of said, well, we could eat two

  Speaker 1: breaks down, TCU looks ahead to the BYU experience. All right,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: good to be back with y'all. West Virginia getting ready
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: for its final regular season road trip two in the
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: state of Utah.
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: It's a doozy. It's a dendy.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: First ever game in provo for the Mountaineers. I don't
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: think we've ever played at Utah. We've played Utah on
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: neutral floors and a lot going on there. Obviously with
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: the coaching change this week, we'll get into that a
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: little bit.
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: Utah reminds me of well, huh, being a kid, Yeah, battling, vincing, arguing,
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: debating to stay up late for the final NCAA tournament
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: game that would kick off from the West Coast. And
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: I have not confirmed this, hopy. I think it was
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: every single game for about twenty five straight years in
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: the tournament took place at the Huntsman Center in Utah,
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: and Gary Bender was the announcer. Gary every time, like
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: I can, like, I absolutely when I think of Utah,
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: that is my lasting memory of watching that as a kid.
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: And they wasn't it always the West Coast NCAA Tournament.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: Game twenty four years in a row. Gary Bender was
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: a good dude. Like people don't even remember Gary Bender
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: now because Jim Nance took over for Gary Becker. Gary
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Bender was excellent. He was the voice in the tournament.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: He was we interviewed him in Arizona for the hot
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Rod Huntley documentary, right, and he was he was very
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: very nice.
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's my metor hop as we get ready to
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: head to Utah.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you get ready to head to Utah.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: Of course, historic conference, rivals of Utah and BYU and
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: a lot of history there was his conference.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: When you talk Mountaineer basketball, I think BYU Utah would
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: be the first couple of names that pop up.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: Will you guys, bet you guys better get on the road.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: I mean you got to get way out there, and
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: you gotta travel through Utah.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: And how about there's listen, there's a ton of storylines
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: on this. BYU's as hot as any team in the country. Utah,
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: it's bizarre what's going on there. And there's a West
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: Virginia connection with Josh Well by the way, West Virginia
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: battle in for an NCAA tournament spot here. There is
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: a lot happening coming up in this this five gay
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: road swing, absolutely.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: Which just in itself is a story.
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: The old ESPN intro into the trailer for A thirty
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: for thirty is what if I told you a basketball
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: team that did not have one returning player from the
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: previous season that had won nine games with three regular
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: season games remaining in the following season is right now
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: locked into the NCAA Tournament. They have an opportunity to
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: double last season's win total with a one more victory
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: like that. I guarantee you we would have shouted someone
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: down in October if they came to us and said,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, West Virginia's going to be in
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: the NCAA Tournament this year and it won't even be close,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: won't even be a bubble, it won't even be close.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: We would have win that. What do you on, right?
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: And again every time you always have to add the end,
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: and you would lose what was going to be your
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: best player of the year eight games into that season.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Yes, and that win that you're talking about might come
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: against a team that is coached by the coach who
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: coached West Virginia last year, who was hired as an
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: assistant but now is the head coach because the coach
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: got fired. Now, you know, I know we'll talk about this,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: but I think, you know, good Josh Hoyward is the
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: right guy to step up.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: But the bad part I think is, you know, we're.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: Very fond of Josh Ilard and the job he did
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: it at West Virginia, but he's going to probably have
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: to look for another job because the head coach got fired.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: But he's the guy that's gonna have to bring him
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: through the end of the year.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: He is, and I've gotten a bunch of questions from
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: folks that, rightfully so feel just horrible about Josh getting
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: knocked right the staff getting blown up here just one
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: year after he got there. The good news is he
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: did sign a two year contract, so at least monetarily,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: he will be making another year of salary from Utah,
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: and obviously I think it will be very important for
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: him to jump right back in and get another job.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: It's not one of those deals or you're just going
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: to sit out a season. I don't know if there's
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: an offset or whatever, but anyway, the good news is
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: from just a financial standpoint, is that he'll make money.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: He's got a two year deal that they have to honor.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: By the way, it's costing the Utah's five million American
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: dollars to fire their coach, Craig Smith right.
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: Now, that's a second wow to the whole thing.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: Five million American dollars is what they're going to go like, Okay,
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: see you later.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: For a program, for a program that needs to put
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: some more resources behind it, as really everybody does. That
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: was a surprising move, man. There's a lot of money
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: there to make a change on a team that won
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: some games?
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: Was it because I have won some games? Was it
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: because of two things? One is that they're not there. Second,
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: now they're second to b Yu, And that is that's
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: viewed very disparagingly in Utah. And you can't be behind
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: b YU number one and number two. If you had
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: made the decision for the reason to fire him, you're
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: probably better off doing it now, right as opposed to
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: in case, if you want to fire them, you want
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: to do it now, as opposed to well, I want
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: to say make a run and then you fire them,
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: then it looks worse.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Correct, They will get all the intel once we get
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: into we'll put our feet on the ground, hoppy kind
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: of like you you'll find out what do they call
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: that gum shoe reporting? Is that what that is?
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: Or I don't think you need it in this situation.
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: Here's a dude, I don't think I don't think you
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: need anybody tell you what just happened there. That's pretty clear.
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: If you've been around this, you know what just happened.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: Go ahead, Well, the ad wanted to make a change,
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: and they were and he was going to make a change,
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: and then they went and won two games, and I
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: can't make a change after we just beat Kansas the
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: historical program in this league. Wait to see if you
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: lose to Kansas, tate oh g knstay, I can't do
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: or just hold on here saying oh you lost it,
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: Ucee a boom firechange you think of the guy had
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: Nobody tell me that. That is just my perception of
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: being around this for a long time. It appeared clear
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: this is some something that they wanted to change, and
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: they picked a time in which to do it, because
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: if this team did go on a run, then it'd
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: be hard to make that change.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: You think that if they beat UCF but they were
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: travelling in their next game at halftime, he would have
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: fired him at halftime of the next game. Just hey, listen,
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: this thing's not going well.
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: Because again, again we were not watching their day to day,
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: so I don't know what goes on their day to day.
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: But that's a team coming into this league for its
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: first year, which is a difficult transition. I don't care
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: that you've been in the Pac twelve that was a
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: Power five league. I don't care. It's a different style
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: of play, it's a different league. It's a lot of travel.
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: A team win in seven games. At the point in
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: which Craig Smith got fired, well, I thought they were
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: having a pretty decent year. I agree in my opinion.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: So I read the thing was either in the Athletic
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: I think it was the Athletic today. Pretty good story
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: about what they think is going to happen there. They
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: think that Utah already probably has their guy and it's
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: going to be a professional model that they will try
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: to go an NBA esque model. And one of the names,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: although he probably doesn't get it, is the guy that
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: West Virginia played against in nineteen ninety eight, which is
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: looked at. Remember they went to the Final four that
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: year when they beat West Virginia in the sweet sixteen
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: in Anaheim Andre Miller, who had a really good pro career.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: But there's another plate forever in the league.
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: Yes he did.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: There's another dude that's currently on the BYU staff, which
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: just left the Utah staff to go to BYU. They
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: think he's got NBA background. I think that's going to
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: be the cat that probably gets it.
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: It would make some sense right BYU just went the
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: NBA model, plucked an assistant from the NBA and ran
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: it that way. So we'll say, all right, it's enough
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: on that's enough on that.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll get in more. Come on, we'll talk about
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: TCU coming up and what do you what.
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: Welcome to the Utah Podcast.
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: We're talking utes three eyes before the Utah game.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I am looking forward to being there. I've been
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: to Salt Lake twice and I had one of the
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: great restaurant experiences.
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: Of my life.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: Really that's in Salt Lake. So I'm going to go
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: back there.
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: Well, you're ahead of me. I went once for a convention.
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: Not sure I went outside more than ten minutes total.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, never been to Utah. Never been to the great
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: state of Utah. Best to get there sometimes.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Best laid out city in the world.
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: My really, it's a strong statement.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: They put a grid down. They put a grid down,
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: and the thing is like a Swiss watch. You don't
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: you don't need a map. They just gridded the thing.
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, there are other places with grids.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: This is a great Oh no, no, no, I'm aware. No, no,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: no no.
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: I'll tell you something. Only sitting in the world with
• 10:48
  Speaker 4: a grid went there best in the world.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you something. I went to a grid
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: conference once Geneva. They said, I said, where's the greatest grid,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: Salt Lake City? I sub beend there, so they have
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: to agree with you.
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: They said, there's only one person in the grid conference
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: because there's only one city with a grid. So there's
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: one person in that room.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you what makes DC's grid just well, DC's
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: the worst. It laughs, It laps at Northwest.
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: DC's in a circle.
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I understand.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Well, so Utah is cleaning things up. And if you
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: want to clean things up, you want to refresh, you
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: want to hydrate. If you're a business owner, do something
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: great for your folks. You know, it's one thing to say, Hey,
• 11:30

• 11:39
  Speaker 1: a water machine in your building that they can use,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: stay happy, stay hydrated. It's just a great add on
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: here from Comac's Business Systems. Are folks there. They've got

• 11:56

• 12:19
  Speaker 1: with it. It's Comax Business Systems. Visit them at comaxwv
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: dot com. Start off with Hoppy's obvious observations. West Virginia
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: was the winner over TCU since the last time we
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: got together.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: What you got what I have is I was searching
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: for a word to describe what happened, and I came
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: up with cathartic. February has been a very difficult month,
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: with close losses, with not shooting well.
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: With not giving a full not having a full forty minutes.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: Frustration at the line, not getting looks at the free
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: throw On every game we were talking about something, and
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: this game provided psychological relief because it was all there.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: After the first five points scored by TCU, West Virginia
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: goes on the eighteen to oher run dominates the game,
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: shoots fifty two percent, you know, equals TCU, and rebounds
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: gets ten steals, gets transition points. Darren DeVries said, quote
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: to play for a full forty minutes, that's what was
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: most That's what we were most satisfied with. So that's
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: what you got. I mean, you got a full forty
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: minutes where everything worked out. And Brad will break down
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: more of the specifics on that. And also there was
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: a moment in that game that I think symbolize what
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: is really enjoyable about this team.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: Second a half.
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: What was it?
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: Well, it was in the second half. You're up twenty
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: and twelve minutes ago or something. There's a loose ball
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: and Andre dives on the court for the ball and then
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: calls the time out and.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: Devrees rushes out. The team gets around him.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: I mean, you would think he just scored the winning
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: touchdown when all he did was was dive for this
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: loose ball. But to me, that was emblematic of the
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: character of this team and how they felt with the
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: way they were playing. So much positive out of this game.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: Cathartic, It's wonderful. I think a perfect word couldn't find
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: one better than that. You know what's also really nice
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: about that when you had just got boat raced seventy
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: three point fifty one on Saturday in Lubbock, right, that
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: could leave a scar, That could leave like some wounds,
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: mental wounds, and go they just what are we doing
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: for them to come out and to just absolutely all gas,
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: no breaks. That's really emblematic of this team. Got to
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: compliment these.
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: Good mental toughness. I do think the first half of
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: Texas Tech did help you, though, I think there was
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: a lot to build upon. I know that score got
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: away from you, but that was not indicative of that
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: game in my opinion. So yeah, I agree with their
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: mental toughness, but I also think it was just nice guys.
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: You had to have it. It was as must win
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: as you get in college basketball at the power forward level,
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: when there's really not a ton of absolute must wins.
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: That was right up there. You needed to have that
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: or you were really going to be in the corner
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: and West Virginia not only came out and just snuck
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: by and got to win, absolutely leed that game start
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: to finish. Only trailed for like three minutes in that game,
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: and that was really early when it was kind of
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: a clunky start there, and then they got it together
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: and just dominated that game. It was one of the
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: most complete games that we've seen all season. I'll get
• 15:29
  Speaker 4: in some numbers in that we get in the spreads
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: on stats part, but that was really impressive. That was
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: an elite defensive performance across the board. You got it
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: from multiple guys as well on the defensive end. And
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: as we say so often with this team, great defense
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: and great energy and effort on the defensive end generally
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: leads to good offense. It did. This was an elite
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: offensive performance for West Virginia as well, and it was
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: one of those I'll get into these numbers, guys, but
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: we talked about last three games. You were getting all
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: these open shots and you just couldn't hit them. Man,
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: you hit them the other night. You hit them the
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: other night. You got a lot of looks and a
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: lot of guys and they banged them.
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: And on that point, Brand Javon small set after the game,
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: we shot the ball with confidence. Now you're a former
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: athlete baseball and basketball.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: High level athlete, high level athlete, hopey, please.
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: The confidence part?
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: What about confidence? Yeah, that's interesting about it. Yeah, it's yeah,
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: And I think the thing about it, I mean, isn't
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: it one of the keys to life in every aspect,
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: your your level of confidence. But I think on the
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: on the basketball floor and athletically, you try a lot
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: of times as coaches, many coaches try and instill that
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: and try and put the confidence there. And really the
• 16:32
  Speaker 4: only thing that gives you confidence is when you perform
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: and you do it. And this had been a group
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: that had had moments when it had done it throughout
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: the year. So it's in there, but it needed to
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: see a couple shots go in. And we've we've talked
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: about this many times. We've talked about it with Darren.
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: Why is it contagious both good and bad? Why is
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: making shots contagious? Why is missing shots contagious? Why is
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: oftentimes in baseball, stringing together hits and having a biginning
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: contagious versus you can't seem to get a hit. It
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: It just is, And this was a team. You're right, hop,
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: that had a lot of confidence when it got the ball,
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: and none more so than Jevon Small And we'll get
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: into him here in just a second. But he was unguardable,
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: unguardable the other night, hop, I said, the other night,
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: apologies to Dominique Wilkins, but Jevon was a human highlight
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: film the other night. I mean he made some moves
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: and quite frankly, as good as he was scoring, it
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: might have been most impressive on passing. How many passes
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: did he have Tony that we just went, wow, how
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: did that get through there?
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: He said, A couple games in a row now where
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: he makes passes that have eyes on them. You go
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: like tennissists. He had double double ten double tennissists and
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: twenty three markers. Here's why, as a Mountaineer fan, you
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: should be happy, and I don't want to jump ahead
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: in our lives, but you should be like really excited
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: about this program because this will start to become the
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: norm rather than the exception. So they're going to always
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: guard when Darren Devrees is the coach, right, So this
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: is the defense you're going to get year in and
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: year out. And then As time goes on, you'll get
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: more numbers on your roster. You'll get more shooters on
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: your roster. I'm not say they're gonna make eleven, but
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: they're probably gonna make seven plus eight plus during the
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: course of a game, and some games they'll do better
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: than that. Going forward, you're gonna win a lot of games.
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: That's a good example of it. The other night, those
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: guys were all playing at a really high level. There
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: was movement. There was ball movement, there were shots going in,
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: there was extra pass, there was transition when you needed it,
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: there was control pace when not, you had defensive pressure,
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: you had it on ball pressure. I mean, they pretty
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: much did everything the other night. That was a great
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: illustration of what the thing will look like moving forward. Yeah,
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: I totally agree with you, totally agree.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: All right, spreads on stats is coming up in just
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: a couple of shakes. What do you say we stay
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: on the topic of water. As I mentioned earlier, there
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: were a couple of days this week where mother Nature said,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: and you're looking around, going where's that noise coming from?
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: Mother Nature's going like, hey, I know I've been jacking
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: you pretty much. It's December, making you think there's no
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: such thing as a pretty day anymore. Let me give
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: you a little flashback. She came in with sun, and
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: she came in with warm temperature. You know, the kind
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: of sun that kind of hit you in the face
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: and it's not hot, but it just makes you feel good,
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: like that vitamin D screaming.
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: So what that's telling you is, folks, we're getting ready
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: not for boating season. We're getting ready for lou Wendell season.

• 21:29
  Speaker 4: It's hang on, I'll get to see that.
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: That's my favorite.
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: I got to work into it. There's an order to
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: the unfailing of the numbers.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Here, ultimate control it, ultimate control free. See won't get
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: me what I want right off the bag.
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: Oh, you can ask whatever question you want. It doesn't
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: mean not to answer it. All right, here's what we're
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: gonna do. Let's ll just take top level stuff here
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: and then I will get right into the on guarded
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: catching shoots. This was an elite defensive performance. As I
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: mentioned hop if you take the defensive rating, which is
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: basically your points allowed per hundred possessions, if the season
• 21:59
  Speaker 4: ended today in Westfrond and you had that performance, it
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: would sit in the ninety second percentile defensively really good,
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: which no surprise, this team's a top ten defensive team
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: when you look at some of the metrics, so that's
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: not a surprise. But they actually came to play hard
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: and right from the start. Guys, and we'll get into
• 22:14
  Speaker 4: Sincere Harris specifically, but he again set the tone. He
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: was fantastic out front and caused absolute havoc and chaos
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: for those TCU guards that were so good in Fort
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: Worth just absolutely shut him down and it continued all nights.
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: We'll get back to that. But great defensive performance. On
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: the offensive side, their effective field goal percentage, which counts
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: threes as worth more than twos, which they are, so
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: it kind of combines the number of twos and threes
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: and gives you an effective field goal percentage came out
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: at sixty three percent, which if the season ended today,
• 22:45
  Speaker 4: that would sit in the ninetieth percentile national offense and defense.
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: I mean, it was complete on both ends.
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: That's what they call a winner.
• 22:52
  Speaker 4: And here's the last piece on offense, one point two
• 22:55
  Speaker 4: points per possession overall on the game. I reference this
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: stat a lot. Hop the team that's currently leading the
• 23:01
  Speaker 4: nation sits at one point one points per possession. West
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: Virginia was one two for the game, so that shows
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: you just the level at which they were operating on
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: both ends. In the first meeting between these teams, fifty
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: two percent of West Virginia's shots were threes and they
• 23:15
  Speaker 4: made only twenty seven percent of them. On Tuesday, fifty
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: percent of the shots were threes, they made forty two
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: percent of them. So, if you want to look for
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: an offensive stat that drove you, it was that particular one.
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: And here's why, guys. We had talked a lot about
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: open shots. Over the last three games. West Virginia had
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: twenty two catch and shoot attempts against TCU, eleven of
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: them on guarded fifty percent, so actually a little bit
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: less than what they'd been averaging, but still a big
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: number fifty percent. But here's what happened. You got twenty
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: one points off those on guarded shots, almost two points
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: per possession on those. That's the second most points off
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: on guarded catch and shoots on the entire season in
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: its totality, twenty one points. It ties the Baylor game,
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: which also just makes you just that made me more
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: mad when I had to type that, But it tied
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: the Baylor game, and the only one that had more
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: than that was in Arizona when Arizona couldn't find Tucker
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: Devreeze and he was launching from the pool, the shark
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: slide and the other.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: End casino hit one from the casino the beach.
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: You were gonna ask something there, That's what I was
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: going to ask you.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: Who was number which which team did you make the most?
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: It was Arizona. So and then this is important, and again,
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: these are kind of numbers that would back up what
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: your eyes told your what you think you probably saw.
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: Javon had three on guarded catching shoots. He had nine
• 24:40
  Speaker 4: points off those, all three right, three point possession. He
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: is now fifty percent from three when on guarded, which
• 24:47
  Speaker 4: is top ten percent in points per shot. Nashally, Yeah,
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: I think so. It feels like he's ninety five percent
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: on those when he's when he squares and gets open.
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: Who does that? Who does that? What? Who does that
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: goes fifty percent from three? Yeah? What kind of players
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: do that? Pros? Pros?
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what a difference, right, Pros like, Oh, you're
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: gonna give me the shot, hero, drain it right in
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: your eyes.
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: See you later.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: That's that's the separator right there.
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: But here's another one and We've said this a bunch.
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: When Joe Yesafu has a good scoring game that a
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: win usually follows that. He was five, had five of
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: his seven catch and shoots were unguarded. He got a
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: lot of open looks, and that's why he's in the lineup.
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: He comes in when you feel like you need a
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: little scoring spark, and that's what he's there to do.
• 25:27
  Speaker 4: Stick those open jumpers. He had nine points on those fives,
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: so almost two points per possession for him. That was
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: the most for Joe on the season for unguarded points,
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: unguarded catch and shoot points.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: And did it with a leg that looked like a pirate,
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: especially late. He was crazy that one lock, that one leg.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: Well he was a pirate. Yeah, he just he was
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: like this hot his leg would you He wouldn't move.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: It was just like he was like, remember fastest gun smoke, Sure, fastest.
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: We walked better than Yesafu was walking at the end.
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: At one time he came out from the tunnel and
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: he couldn't literally couldn't bend. His leg was just like
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: a two by four. He's just dragging it along with him.
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, And so one of those open looks came to
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: our right in front of the West Virginia bench in
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: the corner with about four minutes and change to go.
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: That I thought it didn't seal the game. You were fine,
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: but they were making they were making a little bit
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: of a push. It was getting tight in there, yea,
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: and he just said I'll handle it. Boom bang game
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: game still the good. Yeah, So he was really good there.
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: He's forty eight percent from three when left on guarded
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: on catching shoots, so that's part of why when he
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: gets those and knocks them in generally good things happen.
• 26:29
  Speaker 4: That's top twenty percent in the nation points per shot.
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: You know, with him, I see a guy that has
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: played a lot of basketball. Yeah, there's a fearlessness to
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: his game that only comes by playing. I think the
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: other day was one forty four. If it was, it's
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: one hundred and forty fourth game, right, I mean that
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: is that's a lot of basketball games. And I think
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: you only get the way that he gets because he's
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: done it so much. He's fearless. Not the big guy,
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: but he will take the ball right to the rim
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: and in the catch and shoot situation, doesn't have any
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: tendencies to like should I should I not know, but
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: that bad boy's going. And so that is the kind
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: of guy you need. Man, you need nutcutters, and he's
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: a nutcutter.
• 27:14
  Speaker 4: In that role. And he's a guy that can put
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: the ball, as you just mentioned, on the floor and
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: get in there. And at times West Virginia's offense needs
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: that because defenses know they like to shoot the three
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: and they overextend. And how many times do we say that?
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: The other night, TCU kept coming out and pushing out
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: and pushing out, and they were very good early defensively,
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: I thought, And they were very aggressive and that started
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: to open up some of those back cuts in that
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: movement and they went to zone and you have to
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: carve it up. Joe's able to do that. He has
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: the ability off the bounce. Speaking of ability off the
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: bounce I mentioned earlier, TCU just struggled to contain Javon
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: a team leading sixteen shots, a team leading eleven three pointers.
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: You let him get loose for team leading shots and threes,
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: you're probably not winning that game. And TCU did not.
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the shoulders going, Yeah, he was had the shoulders.
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: He was shimming you hot.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: When the shimmis it's a good night when he shimmies
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: is like the ball game.
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: He gave one hobby, he gave one. He's out at
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: the top of the key and two defenders are trying
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: to close the trap and he took it. You know,
• 28:13
  Speaker 4: normal if you if you're watching it between the legs,
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: dribble the balls in front of you and you dribble
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: it to your back and take it with your other
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: hand and then you go. He had it on the
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: side behind him and dribbled it between his legs forward,
• 28:26
  Speaker 4: took it and exploded.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: Into the lane. Then my he didn't didn't send it back.
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: He just kind of took it out. Get forward, gonna push.
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: My moment and from go behind gone. I mean he
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: put everybody in a blender. Everybody they tried to put
• 28:39
  Speaker 4: on him just saiding can't guard me. You like that
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: when he does it, I get. I absolutely get giddy
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: when he gets out there and he sees the matchup
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: and he said he kind of pulls it back, and
• 28:49
  Speaker 4: Mike says, he doesn't do it, But I just want
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: him to get come come on, come on right out
• 28:52
  Speaker 4: here with me.
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: He's gonna get a look, he's got problems. He's gonna
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: get a little bit of it here coming to Utah,
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: they're gonna be in a short Oh, they're gonna they're
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: gonna have absolutely just you don't put a hit list
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: out on it.
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: It'll be face guarding again. Oh yeah, here, okay, here's what.
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: I don't know that I've used this stat ohwesothing this season,
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: but this was part of where West Virginia won the game.
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: I thought we mentioned they picked their spots. West Virginia's
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: so good and so calculating with controlling the pace. The
• 29:20
  Speaker 4: other night, they pushed it a little more than they have,
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: meaning when they had an opportunity to get to the
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: other end of the floor, they did. And I'll get
• 29:26
  Speaker 4: into that with Sincere Harris, because I thought he really
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: sparked and turned the game around after those first couple
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: of minutes when he was doing this. But as a team,
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: West Virginia I thought was pretty aggressive. One point four
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: points per possession off missed shots by TCU. That's pretty good.
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: I just said, one point one leads the country if
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: you did the first season. One point four points per
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: possession off the miss shots seven of fourteen from three.
• 29:51
  Speaker 4: So West Virginia feasted off of three off of their missshots.
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: And that's part of why guys, Darren always talks about rebounding, right,
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: that's what that's what he's talking about there. Get the
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: rebound so that they can outlet and transition before you
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: can set up your half court defense. And what you're
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: trying to do there, Guys, we mentioned it all the times.
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: How do you find some quote easy points within a game.
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: Some of it's free throw line, but this West Virginia
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: team doesn't get to the line very often. Some of
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: it comes off points off turnovers with West Virginia's been
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: very good at But if you've got to set up
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: in your half court offense and simply be efficient offensively
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: for more than anything else, that makes it really hard
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: on the offense. So this is one area misshot. Get
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: the defensive rebound, don't allow them to get it and
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: put it back in and then get out before the
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: defense sets up. West Virginia killed TCU in that category. Absolutely.
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: Those are good numbers.
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: Not done, Yeah, oh we're still on TCO. Yeah.
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: I've got West Virginia, what twelve and three now making
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: nine or more threes. I think they're twelve to three
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: on the season. When they do that, let's flip over
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: to defense real quick, and probably shouldn't be real quick
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: on defense because really that was the ultimate key. But
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: you hold them to twenty one percent from three. West
• 30:58
  Speaker 4: Virgini's now up to seventh nationally three point field goal percentage,
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: fourteenth overall defensive efficiency, Which how about this league? Fourteenth
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: overall nationally is West Virginia. It's still fourth in the
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: Big twelve. This is like the old Big East when
• 31:12
  Speaker 4: it comes to that physical, hard grinding, really tough defensive teams.
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: The game changer here though. You were excellent in the
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: first half and you got that lead, and you still
• 31:22
  Speaker 4: stepped on their throat in the second half, held into
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: thirty seven percent in the second half.
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: That was really good, wasn't there? Do I have this
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: number right? That they held them held? TCU score was
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: for eight minutes in the first half.
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: Is that what it was on that eighteen to nothing run?
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: It was eight minutes?
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: Oh, that's correct, eight minutes. I mean, how hard is that?
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: What are you doing over there? Eight M and m's
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: never eat today? Hey?
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: Who are the other three teams on top of West
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: Virginia defensively in the Big twelve?
• 31:49
  Speaker 4: Houston three, Kansas five, Iowa State eleven.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: How about Kansas five?
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: I know that surprised me that it was still that number.
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: Do you do?
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: You have the whole big twelve in front of you.
• 31:59
  Speaker 4: I can get it. What's b YU and Utah uh
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: BYU is not their Their defense does not frighten you.
• 32:06
  Speaker 4: It's their ridiculous offense.
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: Off To come back to their offense is absolutely got it.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: Just unbelievable right now?
• 32:17
  Speaker 4: Okay, would you ask me conference defense? Yeah, where's overall defensive? Yeah?
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: B YU and Utah's b YU seventy first nationally?
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: Still good?
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, still good, but not not like the elites
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: at those other Would you ask Utah seventy fourth nationally?
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: But Utah's offense twelve nationally. So that's what's gonna concern
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: you there when we get into that preview.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: If if there wasn't a shot clock, that'd be a
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: good game. Go up to BYU and just take that
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: air out.
• 32:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you're still gonna try. I mean you're gonna you're
• 32:49
  Speaker 4: gonna bleed clock there if you can right want to
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: give them this is like a football breakdown, hopy, you
• 32:54
  Speaker 4: want to give them as few possessions as possible. You're
• 32:56
  Speaker 4: gonna try and run run the ball successfully against.
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: The cougar possessions. Limit possessions.
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: Don't throw an interception. You should be in good shape.
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: Out on the coin toss. Take the ball on the coin.
• 33:06
  Speaker 4: To out rebounded TCU West Forred. He remains undefeated on
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: the season when it rebounds the opponent. So that was good.
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: Only seven second chance points for TCU because and you
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: know with a Jamie Dixon team, just like his old
• 33:16
  Speaker 4: pit teams, they're gonna they're very good on the offensive
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: glass in West Virginia. Just limited that. Let's talk about
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: two guys first before we dive into BYU, and we'll
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: put a rap here on TCU from a number standpoint.
• 33:27
  Speaker 4: Let's look at Sincere for just a seconds. I just thought, guys,
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: he is a couple of things. The defense continues to
• 33:33
  Speaker 4: be elite, especially when he's on ball. But then now
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: what is coming along with him the last couple of games,
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: his offensive game. Now he can be a problem for opponents.
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: And he was the other night. He was in transition
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: and taking it to the basket and finishing. He had
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: the one turnaround when he got inside on the zone
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: and you attacked it and he turns it, hits a.
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: Turnaround, little turnaround in the lane, off the lane.
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: I mean, put him in a spot where he can
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: help you. He's good at the free throw line. But
• 33:57
  Speaker 4: what he did to those guards where he did neither
• 33:59
  Speaker 4: one of wanted to bring the ball up right because
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: of his pressure. And he's just on you all night
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: and he's not going anywhere to hold Noah Reynolds for them,
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: who is a really talented basketball player and was excellent
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: down in Fort Worth to hold him to zero field
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: goals and he didn't score until late when he hit
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: a couple of free throws. He was in some foul trouble.
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: Some of that was due to West Virginia. He couldn't score,
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: he didn't have a field goal.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, they had forty two points from their guards and
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: Fort Worth they had ten.
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: In Morgantown, Buck finishes thirteen points, five rebounds, two blocks,
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: two steals, another game with more steals than turnovers. That's
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: his fifteenth game this season with two or more steals.
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: West virgin is ten and five. In those games. He
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: seemed to be enjoying himself, ye, because he's playing really well.
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: I mean he was when he came out of the game.
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: He was looking up and into the crowd, seemed to
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: have he seemed to be having fun time and hopefully
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: that'll continue.
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: A couple other numbers for Buck, it's his seventh game
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: with two or more blocks, six and one in those games.
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: All that thought he had him that one time took
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: him down the left side lane. Line said, I'm I'm
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: just gonna score over you in Bucks. Ah, No, I
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: actually no.
• 35:07
  Speaker 4: He gets a lot of those. You think you got
• 35:09
  Speaker 4: a step on him. He comes behind you west rings
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: five and zero when he has two or more blocks
• 35:14
  Speaker 4: and steals. Okay, here's some numbers you ready. In twenty seventeen,
• 35:20
  Speaker 4: Javon Carter four point four percent steal rate, So the
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: number of steals that he had when he was on
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: the floor right divided by the possessions four point four, which,
• 35:31
  Speaker 4: to put that in perspective, is really good. There's a
• 35:34
  Speaker 4: reason some awards came his way. That was twelfth nationally
• 35:37
  Speaker 4: out of twenty one hundred and sixty three players. Really good.
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: Twenty eighteen, Javon had a four point eight percent steal rate,
• 35:45
  Speaker 4: sixth nationally out of twenty one players. Sincere sits right now,
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: three point five percent steal rate. Not far off from
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: a guy that was a two time Defensive Player of
• 35:56
  Speaker 4: the Year that had some freedom in that defense to
• 35:59
  Speaker 4: run in jump and it was predicated upon Javon getting
• 36:02
  Speaker 4: some steals. This is a guy doing it basically one
• 36:05
  Speaker 4: up on one guy and he's only within a percent
• 36:08
  Speaker 4: of his steel rate. Shows you what kind of season
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: he's having defensively, very good. Jewn was six nashally and
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: steel rate.
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: Think about that, Yeah, I mean when we remember recently
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: we went back and looked at his numbers, you kind
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: of forget. You think he was all defense, but he
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: like at the end of his career senior year, like
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: he was really much better offensive.
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: No question. All right, one more because I thought kJ
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: Tenor made a huge difference in the game. He did.
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: He had three steals. If I told Tony after the game, Hobby,
• 36:32
  Speaker 4: if you had told me he had thirteen steals, I
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: would have bought it. His hands were in on everything.
• 36:36
  Speaker 4: And Darren references in the postgame the plus minus number.
• 36:39
  Speaker 4: You can kind of pick apart at times, but it's
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: a good just overall. Look, plus fourteen and what eleven
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: minutes of game action. That's really hard to do, so
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: he was really good mention kJ Tener and Way. It
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: had two floaters as well that were badly needed. If
• 36:53
  Speaker 4: he comes in and he's hitting a couple floaters on you,
• 36:55
  Speaker 4: and you've got to count for him offensively, great night
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: by kJ.
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: Do you think he knows he can use the other hand.
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: When he floats? Yeah?
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: Like do you think like he? I mean he doesn't
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: put the left hand up on that ball when he
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: goes anytime inside the paint.
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: Good. It's a floater your right hand to shoot it
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: with your right.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: Hand, this old school George McGinnis.
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's not a layup, it's a shot.
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: He could they call it a dig when you go
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: down and help out if they're trying to post someone
• 37:21
  Speaker 1: up like Ouda the other day, they're trying to post
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: him up. The guard as quickly as possible gets back
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: in there and tries to dig the ball out, root
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: the ball out. Digs and he did an exceptional job
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: at that because he's so small, right, he can kind
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: of get in there and go lower, and he scraped
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: out a couple of them, and those are big, big plays.
• 37:41
  Speaker 4: He also did a great job when people would put
• 37:44
  Speaker 4: the ball on the floor driving and he's back pedaling
• 37:47
  Speaker 4: in front of him and giving you a swipe. I
• 37:50
  Speaker 4: don't know if all three steals came that way. He
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: had a couple like that where it was on ball
• 37:53
  Speaker 4: swiping down and it came loose. That's why he may
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: not got credit for as many steals as he probably
• 37:59
  Speaker 4: created because he was wiping down and getting that ball.
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's why we're going to go ahead and officially
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: name kJ Tennor is our Tutor's Biscuit World Player of
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: the Game.
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: We were what do you think I think?
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: So? Why sure?
• 38:12
  Speaker 4: I mean, I mean Jevon double doubled.
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: Well, I understand it, but I got to get the
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: spot in anyway, Tutors, he filled He filled up his plate,
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: is what is what kJ Tenner did. He filled up
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: his plate, and so can you if you go to
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: Tutor's Biscuit World this specially, this is my favorite special
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: that we've gotten from these folks. You buy one item
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: at regular price, and then you can get a second
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: item for just a dollar, So you can go in

  Speaker 1: mean what more do you want? In today's world, you
• 38:44
  Speaker 1: buy one, you get one for a dollar at Tutor's
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: Biscuit World. Check them out. They're just tremendous. And again,
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: as I'm saying, some people are saying they could eat
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: three of them.
• 38:53
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: I don't know about that.
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: When the season's over, we might have to bring a
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: couple in here and just do it. What do you
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: think that's what you think?
• 39:02
  Speaker 4: Just go enjoy with I don't.
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: Want to be a saying one.
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: I don't want to be on air when.
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: I'm it's not a it's not a competition. Just get
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: a biscuit and enjoy the biscuit hop.
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: Rich Rod's back, everything's a competition, he said, if they're
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: keeping score, he's I mean, we could probably talk Rich
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: in to go and eating biscuits because Rich said, the
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: other day, you're at the press conference there, he said, Hell,
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: if they're keeping score, he said, we're going to compete.
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: So if it's Tutor's Biscuits, we might just do the
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: same thing. See how many we can eat.
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: But we're not we're not keeping score or we can
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: I mean.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah we can.
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: I'm not.
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: Look, you're not playing. We do it together.
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: I'm eating one and enjoying it.
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: Imagine that reasonable and balanced.
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: It's all they give him in the home is one anyway,
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: and so and so we now we move to b YU,
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: hottest team in the Leglander. They've won five in a row.
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: And the problem with them is they've got shooters all
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: over the floor and then they come out and and
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: they'll bring more shooters off of their bench. And the
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: Catchings kid, that's Tamika Catchings's nephew.
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: He was good here.
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: He's just really good. They say he's a pro.
• 40:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, five star kid. Five in a rows. You mentioned
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: nine of eleven. Only losses were at home this season
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: are to Texas Tech in Arizona. They dropped seventeen threes
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: on Arizona State last night on the road. Hello, we'll
• 40:23
  Speaker 4: get to Saunders. He is blistering hot, Big twelve Player
• 40:27
  Speaker 4: of the week. Scares the hell out of me. He
• 40:28
  Speaker 4: and Western scares me. Javon was awesome against him defensively.
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: We haven't talked about Javon's defense, probably an underrated part
• 40:34
  Speaker 4: of his game. He was excellent against him offensively here.
• 40:37
  Speaker 4: It's part of why I was bummed out. You didn't
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: get that win. You held him in check, and not
• 40:41
  Speaker 4: many teams were able to hold him in check, and
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: you didn't get the win. So this is gonna be
• 40:44
  Speaker 4: a real challenge. Here's what jumped to me, though I
• 40:47
  Speaker 4: was doing some splits with them. BYU's offensive rating is
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: about the same, home or away. Doesn't matter where they play.
• 40:54
  Speaker 4: They're gonna put up points, and they're gonna shoot threes,
• 40:55
  Speaker 4: and they're gonna make a lot of threes. But how
• 40:57
  Speaker 4: about this, guys, Their defensive rating is significantly better at home.
• 41:02
  Speaker 4: If you go by points per one hundred possessions, they're
• 41:05
  Speaker 4: in the fourth percentile nationally on the road defensively the
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: season ended today, fourth percentile defense. You saw that here
• 41:13
  Speaker 4: in West Virginia. How many times during the game, Tony,
• 41:16
  Speaker 4: did I keep saying, Wes Virgini's getting any shot at once?
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: Here it's doing whatever it wants offensively. Byu' is not
• 41:21
  Speaker 4: putting up a fight at all. This is going West
• 41:23
  Speaker 4: Virginia can score here. The home deal, it's a different
• 41:27
  Speaker 4: it's a different deal. Ninety ninth percentile at home with
• 41:31
  Speaker 4: their defensive ratings, weird talk about it a gap to
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: ninety ninety at The crowd helps a ton. There's crazy there, man,
• 41:38
  Speaker 4: no question. And what leads what those numbers lead you to?
• 41:42
  Speaker 4: Our guy, Evanmya at, Evanmakawa at Evanmeya dot com, evanmi
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: ya dot com. He lists BYU if they were to
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: play all their games at home, fifth nationally, fifth best
• 41:54
  Speaker 4: team in the country if you play at home, he
• 41:57
  Speaker 4: has them for almost a five point home court advantage
• 42:00
  Speaker 4: when you play there. So this you're walking into a
• 42:02
  Speaker 4: really difficult environment. But again you've done that before. He
• 42:05
  Speaker 4: walked into Kansas, which is a difficult environment. But what
• 42:07
  Speaker 4: concerns me about BYU They're just they're blistering hot right now.
• 42:10
  Speaker 4: That'll be the biggest challenge with them. Demon the point guard.
• 42:14
  Speaker 4: We talked a lot about him on the last show,
• 42:16
  Speaker 4: and it was a tale of two halves Sincere got
• 42:19
  Speaker 4: the better of him in the first half. Here to
• 42:21
  Speaker 4: the point, Kevin Young had to take Demon out of
• 42:24
  Speaker 4: the game because he had like two turnovers, three turnovers
• 42:26
  Speaker 4: in the first two minutes. They took him out of
• 42:28
  Speaker 4: the game for a big seven minute stretch in the
• 42:30
  Speaker 4: second half. He came back in and was probably the
• 42:33
  Speaker 4: overriding factor in that game. Really talented, really skilled. Here's
• 42:37
  Speaker 4: what he did in Morgantown though, that you've got to
• 42:39
  Speaker 4: try and reverse. He takes nearly fifty percent of his
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: shots from three point land in Big twelve play, and
• 42:44
  Speaker 4: he's not shooting it well, just a twenty one percent
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: three point shooter. But against West Virginia, eight of his
• 42:50
  Speaker 4: twelve shots were from two. He went to the basket,
• 42:53
  Speaker 4: and that's a challenge with a six to nine guy.
• 42:55
  Speaker 4: West Virginia doesn't have a lot of guys outside a buck.
• 42:58
  Speaker 4: You start to put Joe or kJ on him and
• 43:00
  Speaker 4: you've got a massive height advantage there when Demon's in
• 43:02
  Speaker 4: the game. So I thought in the second half he
• 43:04
  Speaker 4: did a great job. Kevin Young BYUS coach, they did
• 43:06
  Speaker 4: a great job of attacking West Virginia inside and having
• 43:10
  Speaker 4: Demon lead that charge.
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Saturday night is going to be all about how
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: can you hold on against this crowd. They pack it.
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: It's twenty right, they put twenty in there, eighteen eighteen,
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: eighteen thousand people, every seat sold and it will be
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: just electric and so your job as a team is
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: to try to diffuse that electricity. And once they get
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: rolling on you, it can become a long night and
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: a lot of teams have had that happen to them.
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: So that's going to be the sixth obstacle. There's five players,
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: and that's the sixth obstacle is the incredible energy in
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: that building.
• 43:51
  Speaker 4: You've got to stop the penetration that want to drive
• 43:54
  Speaker 4: finish if they can, as Demon did in the second half,
• 43:56
  Speaker 4: but ultimately they want to kick it back out for three.
• 43:59
  Speaker 4: West Virginia for the bulk of the game here did
• 44:01
  Speaker 4: a really good job on that. They contain penetration and
• 44:04
  Speaker 4: were able to close out and get that stick that
• 44:06
  Speaker 4: close and not allow them to go crazy from three.
• 44:09
  Speaker 4: That's where it's going to come down to. Though both
• 44:11
  Speaker 4: these teams shoot nearly half their shots from three. BYU
• 44:14
  Speaker 4: has made ten or more in eighteen games this season.
• 44:17
  Speaker 4: In fact, they average over that. West Forrie's defense has
• 44:20
  Speaker 4: allowed an opponent to make ten or more just three times.
• 44:23
  Speaker 4: West Virginia's three point defense seventh nationally going against BYU
• 44:26
  Speaker 4: number two in the Big twelve, and three point percentage
• 44:28
  Speaker 4: even better at home. So to me, it comes down
• 44:31
  Speaker 4: to can you control Demon number one and again in
• 44:35
  Speaker 4: the game here? How about this, guys, He's only had
• 44:37
  Speaker 4: two games all season where he has more turnovers than assists.
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: One of them was here and they won. The other
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: one was against Ole miss when they lost, So you
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: got that almost where you want it in the first half.
• 44:47
  Speaker 4: But he took over a little bit. He had I
• 44:48
  Speaker 4: think ten assists last night against Arizona State, so you
• 44:51
  Speaker 4: got to watch him and then whichever team can make
• 44:53
  Speaker 4: it from three and West Virginia's going to have to
• 44:55
  Speaker 4: find a way to do that without Javon Small early
• 44:57
  Speaker 4: because you mentioned it, I would assume they're going to
• 44:59
  Speaker 4: face guard him again and try and take him out
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: and say if the rest of the guys can beat
• 45:02
  Speaker 4: us on the road, so be it. So other guys
• 45:05
  Speaker 4: are going to have to make some shots.
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: Yes, stand up. Can't put your little boy pants on.
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: You gotta put your big boy pants on. Gotta put
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: your big boy pants on. Saturday, West Virginia and b
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: WA at ten o'clock back here, it starts.
• 45:19
  Speaker 4: Correct ten o'clock here, right, ten o'clock.
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: Ten o'clock there. And then next week Tuesday, Utah is nine.
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: So West Virginia's playing a bunch of late games. And
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: went nine against TCU ten o'clock BYU, and then nine
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: against the Utahs and then next Saturday close the regular
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: season five o'clock against the UCFS.
• 45:38
  Speaker 4: Go get them big road trip? Can you can you split?
• 45:41
  Speaker 4: Can you get one? It'd be a successful road trip
• 45:44
  Speaker 4: if you can get it'd be awesome if you can
• 45:45
  Speaker 4: get one, then come home, take your run at UCF.
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, three to go, three guys before the game. Textual

  Speaker 3: from the home.
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: From the text line. Operational question for you guys, when
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: you're scheduling the live broadcast, do you use Eastern Standard
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: or the time zone work from home Hoppy happens to
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: be in at the time whatever Hopy tells us.
• 49:53
  Speaker 4: Well, we always operate in Eastern time zone. Then adjust
• 49:55
  Speaker 4: from always Yeah, always Eastern.
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: Three guys just wanted to share a Mountaineer Popcorn's newest flavor.
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: It's called crabber Jacks. This could double as a rate
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: my plate. I really haven't heard any concrete ratings on those,
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: just anecdotal feedback. Very broad yums, let's do better. We
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: need a one through ten rating from now on, or
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: one eight hundred anyway, that's now two seafood flavored popcorns
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: that ironically offer under the season's best seafood sign. And
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: if this is anywhere close to Krabby Caramel, it is divine.
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: So they got crabber Jacks over at Mountaineer Popcorn. That
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: would be interesting. Yeah, No, I think if they're saying
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: it's Sarah, this is Sarah in the Eastern panels. She
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: says it's good.
• 50:34
  Speaker 4: It's good. It's good.
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: Okay, I said that in the last show. You could
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: have a seafood flavor, have a shrimp flee. You just
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: get seafood seasoning, right, yeah, Bay Bay seasoning, something base seasoning.
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: Any any update on the sign controversy.
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: By the way, March fourth is the variance hearing.
• 50:50
  Speaker 4: Okay, but that's great work offering a seafood popcorn under
• 50:53
  Speaker 4: the sign that says best seafood. Very well done. Man.
• 50:56
  Speaker 4: Well listen, if they're making it, it probably is good.
• 50:59
  Speaker 4: I mean, they don't have anything.
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: I've not tasted one thing. How about that buffalo chicken
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: wing the flavor they had.
• 51:04
  Speaker 4: Well, I didn't try that. Did you try that?
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 51:06
  Speaker 4: Really it was good.
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: West and Lake Wiley, South Carolina. There's always a connection
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: from West Virginia.
• 51:12
  Speaker 4: This just happened.
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: I met an older gentleman in our church a while
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: back that's originally from Moundsville. He and he comes to
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: visit me at home because I have been battling cancer
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: and not been able to make it to church. He
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: loves to bring me gifts. He asked me for my
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: hat size, so I thought he'd bring me a nice
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: fitted WUVU cap. And instead this is what I got
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: brought brought him a coonskin cat.
• 51:38
  Speaker 4: That's awesome.
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: That is awesome.
• 51:39
  Speaker 4: So who's this from?
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: This is from West in Lake Wiley, South.
• 51:44
  Speaker 4: Carolina, where West keep battling.
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: You keep battling there, sir, and we wish you guys
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: the very very best. Wow, this is an interesting one.
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: I didn't caught this when it happened at the one hour,
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: nine minute, twenty eight second mark of your last podcast.
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: Hoppy was able to sneak in the use of a
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: hanky when you other two guys were not looking.
• 52:03
  Speaker 4: Excuse me.
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: There it is on screen as a hanky using myself
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: to my wife sometimes displeasure. I understand. We have to
• 52:10

• 52:12
  Speaker 1: a restaurant Way to Go, Hop got a big old
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: cloth in your face screen grab it.
• 52:18
  Speaker 2: What are we doing the and in the spirit of synchronicity,
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: I just I was.
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: I was doing it at the same time that you
• 52:25
  Speaker 3: read that.
• 52:26
  Speaker 1: Cameras on Hop Quit jacking around.
• 52:35
  Speaker 3: What I'm not doing?
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: I tek what I'm not doing. I'm not eating chocolate
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: during the program.
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: Okay, hey, guess what you don't You don't work here anymore.
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: But you just had but you just had your little
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: attitude of when you used to yell at work, I
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: don't eat chocolate when I'm at work. Let me ask
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: you this. That's we're talking about it. How bummed up
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: would you get when I would go in your office
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: and just get a big loogie and spit in your
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: garbage can?
• 52:59
  Speaker 4: Did that bum you out? Or what you Why did
• 53:03
  Speaker 4: he do that?
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: He was? He was absolutely he was. He would just
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: absolutely go crazy.
• 53:10
  Speaker 4: He should.
• 53:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I wonder why, I wonder why toughen up? How
• 53:15
  Speaker 3: about if I just go take a week on your lawn.
• 53:18
  Speaker 3: How do you like that drive over there tonight?
• 53:21
  Speaker 4: I could use the fertilizer.
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: It's time I could use.
• 53:25
  Speaker 2: We are please get back on track, because I really
• 53:28
  Speaker 2: fear the paths we're headed on.
• 53:30
  Speaker 4: Gentlemen.
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: I was listening.
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: I will say this, be aware. Keep those can't keep
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: those outdoor cameras rolling.
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: Gentlemen, I was listening to the last show searching for
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: a place to eat in the sun Crest Star City
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: or you mentioned Tutor, so I stopped in my first
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: visit there we go good food. During the last couple
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: of shows, I've heard discussions on Devreez's emotional demeanor lack
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: of technicals. Comments remind me of Neil Brown's first few years.
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: I heard comments about him being too laid back in
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: the sideline press conferences. I think our general is used
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: to the coaches we had very animated and we're known
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: to fly off the handle when it really mattered. I
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: can still hear one of my coaches yelling get your
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: ass and gear over and over.
• 54:11
  Speaker 3: I would not call laid back correct.
• 54:13
  Speaker 4: I was just going to say, I think the phrasing
• 54:16
  Speaker 4: quotes gets your ass in gear has probably been uttered
• 54:18
  Speaker 4: in certain forms. A lot.
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: He talks a lot without saying anything.
• 54:22
  Speaker 4: He does talk a lot without sayingthing.
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: What you said, He talks a lot without saying anything.
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: Just his his countenance, like when he engaged, like he
• 54:31
  Speaker 1: gives you the eyes. He gives you the eyes.
• 54:33
  Speaker 4: Practice practice in games. Laid back is not the proper descriptor.
• 54:37
  Speaker 3: I think it's fascinating.
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: We should just have a direse cam because during the game,
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: because he is so engaged.
• 54:44
  Speaker 3: And brad I think he said he does not take
• 54:45
  Speaker 3: plays off. No, I mean he is, he is completely
• 54:48
  Speaker 3: He isn't focused.
• 54:49
  Speaker 4: You know what I like about it though, it really is.
• 54:52
  Speaker 4: It's genuine when he does it. There have been a
• 54:54
  Speaker 4: lot of coaches over our times in this business that
• 54:56
  Speaker 4: are the artificial pump, the crowded cheerleader type. He he
• 55:00
  Speaker 4: is not. When he's doing it, He's engaged, he could
• 55:03
  Speaker 4: treat He's truly one of those guys if he if
• 55:05
  Speaker 4: he was able physically and could put the uniform on,
• 55:08
  Speaker 4: he would just as soon go out and do it
• 55:10
  Speaker 4: as he would coach. And that comes through, don't bring
• 55:13
  Speaker 4: that up.
• 55:14
  Speaker 2: And again, he was one of the first ones on
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: the court on the time out when Andrey.
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: But don't bring him up. Playing well, he had a situation.
• 55:22
  Speaker 4: Well he didn't. But friend of the program Kyle out
• 55:26
  Speaker 4: in West of Moines.
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: Darren's really good buddy, Kyle was in with his son
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: and so they were playing two on two and Darren
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: and his buddy were playing against the kids, and well,
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: Darren's buddy ruptured his achilles. Darren said, he wouldn't have
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: ruptured it if he would have just passed him the ball,
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: he said, Darren said, I'm sitting there open. He had
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: to try to make a play and he popped his achilles.
• 55:52
  Speaker 4: I mean, typical Darren. He doesn't deal with injuries. Poor buddy.
• 55:54
  Speaker 4: Kyle's got a blown achilles and Darren's still screaming at
• 55:56
  Speaker 4: him to give them the ball.
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: No excuses.
• 56:00
  Speaker 4: I was a gamer, showed up at the game in
• 56:01
  Speaker 4: a boot, handled it, got the win.
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: He's out of the moines.
• 56:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, wesoins, Yeah, wesins.
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: He's gonna go get surgery now, but he'll be at
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: the Big twelve tournament.
• 56:09
  Speaker 4: We Kyle, keep you.
• 56:10
  Speaker 2: I we got to see you know now we're getting
• 56:13
  Speaker 2: ready for the second season and how this whole thing
• 56:15
  Speaker 2: plays out. But I was thinking that that when you
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: just in the future, ten years from now or fifteen
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: years now, when people look back at the records and
• 56:25
  Speaker 2: look back.
• 56:25
  Speaker 3: At the season, it just doesn't do. Just look at
• 56:27
  Speaker 3: wins and losses.
• 56:28
  Speaker 2: There should be an asterisk next to this and have
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: a little explanation as to yet fair point.
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: Mike and myrtlele Wrights. Pat White turned thirty nine on Tuesday.
• 56:42

• 57:02
  Speaker 1: That thing has been out of print for like at
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: least three or four years. And he said, the book
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: the ruby still has it.
• 57:09
  Speaker 3: Makes it more valuable in that in.
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: That kind of neat, I thought that you stunned me.

• 57:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, great day to be hoppy kerchival wherever you may be.
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: All right, here we go. Unbelievable night energy from Darren
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: was absolutely contagious, amazing seats directly behind the basket. Got
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: to hear the cheerleaders, could hear their pom poms. Top
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: it all off, I got to meet two of the
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: three guys. Really can't tell you how much it means
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: to me. You guys have been the voice of every
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: mountaineer moment. Anxious. I don't even think I properly introduced
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: my wife Emily. Oops. Nonetheless, my wife and I absolutely
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: will be there to watch us bet UCF. We're gonna
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: bring the whole family and some friends to that one.
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: Maybe I can find a way to sneak in some
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: Mountaineer popcorn and some reces. Absolutely anyway, great to finally
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: meet you guys, and see you in March. Baby Seth
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: from Charlestown. That's him in the middle.
• 58:04
  Speaker 4: Good to see Seth.
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: He went old school, Jerry, West Jersey. There our pleasure
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: to meet you. And Emily was very nice.
• 58:11
  Speaker 4: Thank you guys.
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: Uh Texter Day one listener, I'm curious YTC gave up
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: the Hello stick Tony, please dig in the box, bring
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: this gimmick back. Paul from Clarksburg. I don't know why
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: I stop doing that vocal cords. I probably don't need it.
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: My throat probably doesn't need it. Great wind Tuesday. We
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: look like attorney team. Also, I could eat three of
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: them tutors biscuits once a a two. How about this,
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: he says, I once ate a two dozen egg omelet
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: loaded with everything in the kitchen.
• 58:43
  Speaker 4: Oh.
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: Then he ends it with rough night.
• 58:47
  Speaker 4: How big was that thing? Two dozen eggs?
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: Six as the most have ever done? My man went
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: twenty four. Oh good lord.
• 58:55
  Speaker 4: He can't do that now. It'd cost you forty dollars exactly.
• 59:00
  Speaker 3: You have to get a loan.
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: This is a pretty This is wild. I did this yesterday.
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: My wife and I had the opportunity today to tell
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: the story of our miracle twin boys for WVU Children's Hospital.
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: Sawyer and Mason are micro premies that were born at
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: twenty three weeks. The incredible doctors, nurses and support staff
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: at Ruby are the reason why they are still here
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: today and thriving five year olds. We were a bit
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: nervous to do an interview, but lo and behold, who
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: do we see when we got off the elevator, Tony
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: himself taking time to let us showca showcase our dudes.
• 59:36
  Speaker 1: Keep up the great work, gentlemen. Let's hope the mountaineers
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: can have a miracle march of their own. Let's go
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: and have my picture made. So hoppy those folks there
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: were at the speakeasy. That's that's lawman from Faremonte. Now
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: let me tell you about those two little dudes, Sawyer
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: and Mason. So as they said, they were micro primies
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: born five years ago at the hospital. So they were
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: born at twenty three weeks. And the dad told me
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: that they were as big as a cell phone. That's
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: how they were. And they were in Nick you for
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: one hundred and six days and when you have that happened.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: I had no idea, but they have to give you
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: so much oxygen when you're that size to get your
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: lungs going that it impacts your vision because the nerve
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: gets too much oxygen. So they have this incredible procedure
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: that they do at WVU to maintain their eyesight because
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: they very well could have gone blind. And at that time,
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: it was an experimental drug that they tried on them,
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 1: and that drug has since because of that test, received
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: FDA approval and now it is available nationwide. And they
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: wouldn't see had they not done that type of medication
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: at that time five years ago. And then they went
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: in there with a special laser that they have on
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: the one little guy and that's how they can see. Awesome,
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: And that's it's an amazing story. And that kind of
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 1: stuff goes on every single day inside that hospital and
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: we're amazingly lucky to have that kind of care.
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 4: It that was fun. You got to see them, Yes,
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 4: it was, Yes, it was. Is that the family dog
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 4: there where that's Tony's backpack. He didn't move.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 1: I didn't take the backpack out.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, although I thought it was a dog.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 4: No, it does probably looks like a does look like
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 4: a black lab.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: Just yeah, it's my backpack, guys. Question might seem a
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: bit in the weeds. Why does the conference not balance
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: weekend weekday home game totals? Weekend games are always higher attended,
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: gives you a better advantage West Virginia one of two
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: teams or a couple of teams with only four weekend
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: home games. Double whammy is that you end up with
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 1: an additional disadvantage of having six weekend road games. Most
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: teams get five to five, as it should be. West
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: Virginia's on the short end. A couple of teams get
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: actually get six home, four in the road weekend. I
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: know a computer makes the schedule and could handle one
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: more parameter. It's more fearless. So I guess, Charles is
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: that they're probably notified, hey, you're getting screwed this year.
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: Next year it'll come back around. That's how that they'll
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: try to balance that out. So I think that will change,
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: and probably mathematically it's impossible to do it for every team, right, I.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 4: Would think you're right there. I've not checked it that check.
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 1: Joe from Barbersville the question for Brad, what is West
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: Virginia against the over under this year seems like we
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: never hit the over recently. It's is it Vegas. Our offense,
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 1: our defense always keeps us from reaching the number. Asking
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 1: for a friend smiley emoji, FYI have taken the over
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 1: the last six games.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, this is definitely West Virginia fits the profile of
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 4: an under team and it's all of those. It's the offense.
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 4: They want to slow it down, they're going to control paced.
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 4: WESTERDI one of the slowest teams in the country because
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 4: it's trying to limit possessions, and West Rdin is a
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 4: great defensive team. So that's a recipe for an under.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 4: West Virginia eight nineteen and one to the to the
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 4: over this year, eight nineteen and one.
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: You're saying, it's eight nineteen and one to the over. Yes,
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: keep this in mind as as we travel. You know,
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: we're getting ready for travel season, right, travel season, kind
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: of big season. The unbelievable folks at Gomart. You know,
