Speaker 1 (00:01):
This is the best of two pros and a couple
with Lamar Airings and Rady Win and Jonas Knox on radio.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
All Right, we are one day in to the NCAA tournament,
whose final four is already butchered.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
As far as your results, probably yours, please, I'm sitting
pretty I think you had you had Clemson going far,
and you know I did not. I did not. I had,
I had. I didn't have Clemson going far, but I
had getting out of the first round. It was I
(00:43):
had Louisville making it pretty far.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
Oh no, stick insulting. I mean, now they're making fun
of you with.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
You.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
It was I had Missouri. Oh no, no, no, I
did it. I did it. I I'm looking at who
I had going pretty far, the teams that I that lost,
that I picked, I didn't have them going very far.
So I will call Louisville's the furthest. Yeah, Louisville is
(01:20):
the furthest. So I'm still in. I'm still intact. I'm
still intact.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
Yeah, I mean, do we have a ranking between our
group like a show itself?
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Lee is first, you are second, Jonas is third, and
the only group I'm saying it's called a p grouple.
You're not in it. Oh dang. Sorry, Well, I'm just
looking at our brackets between the three of us, which
that's all I care about is beating y'all. Damn. Yeah.
(01:50):
I mean they're just saying you've.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Got eleven points, you're not that far off. Jonas has twelve,
I thirteen. Where it's a tight race so far, okay.
Speaker 5 (01:57):
Yeah, yeah, you're in second there, Brady right there with
Rich Davis and Jason Martin and Steve Cavino and Doug Gottlieb.
But who's sitting at top is Steve Hartman at sixteen.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
That's wild lead lap. What did I tell you I
wasn't gonna win this tournament or what? That's That's quite
quite a roster of names that's up there in the elite. Huh.
Speaker 4 (02:19):
Jonas is tied with Coward. I mean there wasn't you
know there's only one LA team in there, so I
went in tough one.
Speaker 3 (02:23):
A couple a couple of goats just hanging out to
each other.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
In the standings, Alex Curry's surfaced. She's in third, also
tied with one Jonas Knox and Colin Cower.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Look, I mean, everyone likes to get caught up in
the first day, like how am I doing? Today?
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Is really where things start to separate, and I feel
like there wasn't a lot of I mean, there's good games,
but there wasn't a lot of crazy moments yesterday, and
that leads me to believe that today is.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Going to get a little bit more wild. As far
as somebody, why can't I find Lee? Yeah, well, because
if Lee was on here, he'd probably be like, it's
it's pretty Lee's brackets blacked out?
Speaker 5 (03:03):
Yeah, producers aren't allowed in the VIP this year for
some reason.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
It's just that's messed up, dude, that that shouldn't be.
Why not not VIP? Dude, I'm not very important? Why not?
That sucks? Now?
Speaker 2 (03:21):
I will say this big fan of John Calipari getting
it done. I thought he's been a totally disrespected, totally
belittled by members of the Fox Sports Radio family uh
several times over, including on this show, and it was
good to see him persevere.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
It's also good to see why.
Speaker 4 (03:39):
Do you pause for a second so I can just
go ahead and dissect a few things there at the
end that.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Can I just point out a couple of things First,
Arkansas has somebody named Jonas and the last named Knox
on the team. All right, so there's a Drill and
a Knox on the team's.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
The same way. No, it's two separate guys, but it's
spelled the same way. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
Okay, yeah, but again that's like, okay, you got some
of the last name knocks.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Up top for to point out what you got Q
is all you got Jonas. That was the point that
I mean, that was an important point to make.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
Which so first, first thing I'd point out is they
don'tant to watch Kansas this year because I actually, as
I was watching this game, recalled watching them a fair amount.
And one of the things that shocked me a bit
was they were preseason number one. Weren't they? I don't know,
you know, I think they were a preseason or at
(04:40):
least one of the top teams in the preseason. And
this is like I don't know if it's a curse
under Bill self or what you call it, but they
seem to like whenever they there's too much hype around them,
there tends to be a first round exit that comes
with them in the tournament. So I wasn't surprised by it.
I've watched that team this year. They are just not
(05:02):
a great Kansas basketball team. I don't know how else
to put it. I feel like Hunter Dickinson is a
bit overstated, overrated as his impact on the overall game.
And watching that game, I kept thinking like, even if
they win this, they're probably going to bounce in the
second round.
Speaker 3 (05:19):
That's just for KU standards.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
That is not the type of team that you know
we've seen throughout the course of history. But what really
stood out to me was one of the greatest recruiters
in all time, I mean a Hall of Fame recruiter
in one Jollick John Caliperry once again, at the end
of the game can't seem to figure out how to
coach his players to inbound the ball. I mean again,
(05:45):
tight game. Towards the end, the inbounder clearly has the
ability to run the baseline. I mean, hell, we taught
our six, seven and eight year olds this, okay, And
instead of actually running the baseline finally we have not
burning their final two timeouts, he stays static. They can't
inbound the ball. It becomes a bit more stressful than
it needed to be. And it happens twice not once twice,
(06:08):
burning both timeouts, causing them to have to finally go
to their final time out, finally put something together to
then inbound the ball to win the game. It's just
like when it comes down to it, John Calipari will
get out coached.
Speaker 3 (06:20):
It's just a matter of when he's never do he
ever won a championship? Yeah, yes, well in Kentucky twelve one.
Speaker 4 (06:30):
And by the way, go yeah one exactly for all
the all the number one and number two recruiting classes,
all the one and dons, he had one championship to
show for it. And by the way, I think most
people too would think during that era, where they really did.
I mean, if you compared it to Alabama during their
run of recruiting with Nick Saban, they were one of
(06:51):
those teams that during that run run multiple national championships
and were never worse than number one or number two
in recruiting, and that was what they they got from it. Now,
I will concede that March madis that tournament's much more
difficult to actually win a national championship.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
But the lack of final four ks you know, you.
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Know, appearances and and even like towards the end, I
don't think they've made the Sweet sixteen. It has been
five years. His last five years, I don't know if
they've made it more than maybe once. With all the
talented rosters he's had. I'm just saying he's an unbelievable recruiter, unbelievable,
one of the greatest all time, maybe the best. But
in regards to coaching, I mean, they're taking on a
(07:32):
Saint John's team the next round that I don't believe
is as talented as Arkansas. I mean, doesn't have as
many resources as Arkansas. And if in just Saint Johnson's
the higher seed, if they win that game, it's because
of Rick Patino. It's not because they have more talent.
It's because of Rick Patino. He's a better coach and
he's probably Kentucky's best coach at least between the two
(07:54):
of them. Comparing Calipari to Rick Patino.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
I mean, we wonder why John Calipari struggles late game
because you know he's gonna get buried alive if something
goes wrong. God forbid, He's got a player doesn't realize
he can run the baseline to inbound the ball.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
Okay, okay, so what after the first time, you don't
think the coach says to him, Hey Bud, Hey, hey, Jonas,
you can run the baseline. Is that like oversight or something?
Speaker 3 (08:18):
I would have been one. He was trying. He was trying,
He was.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
The problem is is that the fan base, the ungrateful
Kentucky fan base, all of that aura has now been
bleeding over and so now they've got to deal with
the pressure.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Yeah. I mean, and it's and it's terrible, and I
feel bad for the guys.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
This is an awful take because this is also a
take that doesn't include hearing some of John cali Perry's
end of game conversations or he's.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Talked about he's talked about. I think it was recently
too this season.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
He talked about the end of game if he's got
a player on the free throw line up three, and
how he will with like two seconds left, and he
will try to tell him to miss the free throw
because he thinks it's hard for the other team to
get a rebound and go down the court and shoot
a three to tie it, to extend the game. So
he will tell his player to miss a free throw, said,
(09:18):
not to go up four. Not going four, what's a
two possession game. But to miss a free throw in
that instance, like he's it's an all timer. Okay, he's
a great recruiter, Hall of Fame, no one's gonna take
that away.
Speaker 3 (09:31):
But as far as in game like scheme, he is
not the guy. I can't believe Kansas bon't he liked
that though. Man, did you have him going far? I
didn't have him going far. I had them losing after
they got out of fird, I had Saint John's beating them.
There you go, but I'm but still, I mean, they
should have won. They won. I feel like people root
(09:54):
for Rick Petina.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
You know that was a that was an achilles injury.
I'm assuming that the kid from Kansas suffered, and it
seemed like the game kind of tilted the other way
because it looked like Kansas was going to figure out
a way to pull that game out, and then that
injury happened and Arkansas got a couple of stops on defense.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
There was turnovers. I think at Kansas had like six
turnovers in a four minute span down the stretch, and
then they just there. There wasn't enough there. Despite the
let me ask you that she got this, you got
to think that there's a mathematical equation to getting a
perfect bracket, right, Like if you fill out x amount
of brackets with the different combinations of teams, you could
(10:42):
potentially fill out a perfect bracket.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
There's also equations to win the lottery that.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
Lottery is going to say. There's a great story about
a guy.
Speaker 4 (10:52):
He used to drive from Michigan and I don't know
if it was going to Massachusetts or New York, but
he was figured out mathematically, like how many tickets he
needed to buy in order to win some of these
big lotteries, Like and he was a multiple lottery winner,
and he would like lock down these stores and like
be like pretty tough tickets all day. But he figured
(11:15):
out what number that was. I mean, it was thousands
of tickets to win it, but he did it. I
think I think he eventually got caught and they like
shut it down because it was more of a loophole
than it was anything illegal. But there there's I mean,
you can fill out a bunch, but it'd be a
ton in order to do that.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
But how many numbers are in the in the lottery,
Like what's the highest number is it? Does it go
up to ninety? Does it really that's a lot that's
you think there's an easier equation to win the lottery
than there is to have an equation for the final four. Well,
like the pick six is winning for the tournament? What's that?
(11:56):
So fifty nine highest on the pick six? Yeah? Oh
and that's is that the same for like there's still
a lot of numbers powerball? Yeah, that's still at.
Speaker 5 (12:07):
Sixty four I think is for uh, I think that's
the mega or that's the power ball and then mega
is also I think sixty.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Four m interesting. If there's a mathematical equation for that,
that's you are a freaking dork. You know what, dork?
A massive proportion? You know what I heard works if
you want to win the lottery and are looking, okay,
here we go. You know what I heard? What got
the number for you? And here's it's called get a
job like that? That works as well too, Get a life,
(12:42):
you know, get a get a real job. Do you
guys want to hear the odds? What are they?
Speaker 4 (12:48):
I think this is this is what chat Gibt came
up with because I wasn't trying to do this math,
all right, So this is saying that the odds of
getting a perfect back bracket are one in nine point
two quintillion quintillion. I never even which is which is
over one million times harder than the power ball. And
this is saying because they're it's hard after six games
(13:13):
in the tournament, after the first four, so that's it's
not even including the first four, which, by the way,
I wish it would include that because I think I
can be a good tie breaker. But most people are
concerned about not getting the bracketed zign.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
But people do perfect brackets though, right, No, never happened.
No people doing perfect brackets.
Speaker 5 (13:34):
The closest a woman who picked like all dogs, and.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
It's never happened. This has never happened ever before I
could have sworn, I've heard that.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Dog mascots or under dogs all, yes, dog mascots.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
A woman who had no knowledge about Well that's how
I picked horses. Is about a color, Yeah, but I
mean you know the color they're like whatever that is
they're jockey.
Speaker 5 (13:59):
By the way, the other day it's pretty good too.
I got a mega millions in a power ball the
other day. I just looked at it.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
I mean, not the not the color of his kids,
the color of his shirt. You look at their ass. No,
the color, the color of like his colors, like what
he's wearing. You look at their their ass, their LeVar.
I don't know. There's nothing about ass that says it
should be named LeVar. All right, Laura's like, I don't
do that. Yeah, what you betting here? I'll give me
(14:26):
five bucks on the Mexican all right, I've got some.
There's a reason why he's going to be faster, sir,
the horses from Kentucky. I'm not talking about him. I'm
talking about the dockey. He knows how to go fast.
I say, his nickname is speaking. Nickname is nice. He's
(14:47):
got a nice ass.
Speaker 4 (14:48):
Oh god, okay, So the only person this is, this
is the longest perfect streak verified on record.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
Is a guy named Greg Nigel. In twenty nineteen.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
He picked the first forty nine games correctly before his
bracket finally broken in the sweet sixteen MM.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Dang, remember of perfect brag No one's ever gotten a PRIs.
That's why they'd be offering a million a million dollars
for a perfect braget. Get out here. You know, I
ain't nobody getting no perfect bracket soup. There's still somewhat
of a shot though, Lee, What were you saying about
your lotto tickets? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (15:21):
I got a I got a Mega and a power
ball the other day randomly. I don't do it often,
but I got two out of the seals.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Did you get? Uh?
Speaker 5 (15:29):
What else did I get?
Speaker 3 (15:30):
What? I got the box and a tall.
Speaker 5 (15:33):
Across from the Philly Cheese steak.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
But you didn't get a Phillip cheese steak. You just
got the alcohol.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
I got the Philly cheese steak.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
Oh there you go, Like you have like a Hostess
pie in your mouth when you're doing scratch offs, some
type of a like a twinkie, or you got where
you had the chocolate island? What it is like? Always
in my mind, like people who do scratch offs and stuff,
they always got to have like something to drink. You
(16:01):
gotta have something to drink in your arm, and then
you gotta have something in your mouth, like then you
gotta be scratched. Wasn't that his last meal? Before? I
was his last meal? That was his last meal? So
can we can we quickly vote all right?
Speaker 4 (16:16):
Because I do believe before we cap off this segment,
we got to give an award away and we need
a drum roll in order to do it. But you
guys can pick between these two teams. Okay, which team
was I guess the worst at showing up for their
first round because there's two to come right to mind
that really weren't competitive at all in this game. But
(16:38):
we're heavy, I would I would say heavy favorites. But
favorites is that fair to say?
Speaker 3 (16:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (16:43):
Uh, Clemson thirteen points in the first half, That's that's rough.
And I would say Georgia, who had an all time
awful performance and at one point, i think with like
ten minutes to go, I'm pretty sure they had more
turnovers than field goals made at that point in the game.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
I would say Clemson. And I don't know if we
have time to get into it now, Brady.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
Oh, we do. It's not that long the story. Brady
Quinn's partly responsible for what happened in that game for somebody.
Speaker 4 (17:16):
One of the worst beats you'll ever hear in the
NCAA tournament. So the meat wagon asked, me, Hey, should
I bet on this game? I'm like, I don't know, Yeah,
I laid the points with Clemson like not really paying attention,
just kind of like saying like, yeah, sure, that's why
I picked in the bracket, picked Clemson. And as the
game starts off, he's like, my god, like you're the worst,
(17:37):
Like what a terrible pick. And I was like, well, look,
they haven't played this battle season, probably never in.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Their entire lives. And at halftime it was like.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
Thirty one to thirteen, and he goes, I'm gonna lay
the points with McNeice, which at that point the liveline
was minus three and a half.
Speaker 3 (17:54):
And I told him, I said, kind of feel like
that's dumb, because.
Speaker 4 (17:57):
You can't expect Clemson to just play that bad for
the entirety of the game, like they're probably gonna come back.
I was like, I wouldn't put the bet on. I
was like, oh, I'd actually take the points with Clemson.
And so, sure enough, as that game goes from Clemson
being down twenty two with six minutes to go, it
tightens up in the final moments and there's a layup
(18:19):
made with basically no time left to bring Clemson to
within two, which, again horseshoes, hand grenades, whatever else you
want to throw in that category, but highly significant for
the case of Jake's bet the meat Wagon because he
was either gonna to split or he was gonna.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
Lose both bets, which he subsequently did. Yeah that's now.
Did he go back to the window after that or
did he quit? Did he quit on? He did?
Speaker 4 (18:46):
And he did exactly what I told him not to do.
I was like, he gets so enamored with these like
big heavy favorites Tennessee, and I did, dude, it's really
hard to win by that many points when you're playing
in a place that most people haven't played against, a
team that you probably haven't matched up with against. So
he laid the points of Tennessee and lost that one
as well. Yeah, well, I mean he's got a whole
(19:08):
another day to play with. So he told me though
his his idol's Live bet Jesus. So it all makes
sense because that guy can't buy.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
A win again mine in his own business, sitting this
one out and gets attacked on the air Live bet Jesus.
I'm starting to figure out it's like John Calipari, like
he can't catch a break.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Especially I don't think they have anything in common.
Speaker 4 (19:27):
I mean, whe's a Hall of Famer that everyone's just
you know, some debag that shows up every.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
Once in a while Wow, Wow, I do know this.

Speaker 2 (22:58):
Here on Fox Sports Radio, LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas
Knox the Live from the tiraq dot Com studios tyraq

Speaker 3 (23:06):
We help you get there, an.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free road has a protection
and over ten thousand recommended installers. Tiraq dot com The
way tire buying should be. So Yesterday was Colorado's pro Day.
Of course, the big conversation around Colorado is Shador Sanders
his draft stock, where he ends up going in the draft.
Shador spoke on the NFL Network about his sort of
(23:31):
the perception around him, some of the storylines that have
been about him leading up to the draft.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
Let's take a listen.
Speaker 7 (23:37):
We always understood to block out the noise, even from
Jackson State and Colorado. It's a lot of critics, it's
a lot of hate, but.
Speaker 3 (23:45):
We know what to do.
Speaker 7 (23:46):
We know how to handle that in every way, so
we remain happy.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
So he apparently just focused on the task at hand.
His dad, Dion, though, spoke about the situation and although
he wouldn't call out anybody by name, and he's aware
that there is somebody who's out to get his son.
Speaker 3 (24:02):
We like to call this stuff out. I know what
it is. You make me call him out? You know what? Team? Yeah, yeah,
we don't. We don't get to understand it, I know,
but get don't make people behind the courage to stemp
in that thing on the high road. I've got to
be honest. I keep it on the high road. But
I don't know the address. Don't know that address to
(24:25):
the high road.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
So what's the There's not a shot in hell that
Shor Sanders falls out of the top five.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
In my mind, it's possible.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
Well it's it's possible. Yeah, I mean, it's possible. It's
not that it's possible. Anything's possible. It's the NFL draft.
But did you fall to top ten? Probably not, you know,
or maybe I'll.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
Just possible yeah, top, but I'll get you top fifteen,
top fifteen, I'll get you top fifteen. To think he would?
Can I ask you guys this though, like outside of.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
The Dion chadure, this conversation around like the hate or
whatever else, like what's the buzzer on the draft?
Speaker 3 (25:06):
It's the least interesting draft in a long time. Long time.
Speaker 4 (25:09):
I mean, in all seriousness, Like I asked that question
because I can't think of another draft where you're like, man,
I mean, Travis Hunter is an incredible talent and we're
not really talking about it.
Speaker 3 (25:23):
They didn't jump behind that. Yeah, they didn't get that.
They didn't attach the horse. No, and and you could
go talk about Abdul, but like they haven't attached a horse.
This is this is.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
Really dominated the headlines like the cam Ward or Shad
or Sanders, but in most cases people are like, all right,
I think the consensus is cam war. But it's like okay,
then there's just like hate towards Shador. I think some
of this stuff is fabricated honestly. Yeah, And actually I'll
make the case that almost all of it is because
every time of year, like we get to this point,
(25:58):
there has to be someone who's dropping the draft every year,
someone's following everybody's rising and every year yeah, or or
something like that, like or someone's just kind of staying,
you know, put where they're at. I look at it
and say, what most people don't realize is a lot
of the fluff bs that goes on around the draft,
around these topics and conversations are done by the agents
(26:22):
and the teams, and they do them because if it's
a competing agent, they're trying to try to try to
prop up their guy, at least in public perception. Because
the teams think what they want and these these the
agents don't. They're not gonna persuade them one way or another.
They have their process of looking at it, and ultimately,
in most organizations, whether it's the owner, general manager, head coach, whoever,
(26:45):
is the ultimate decision maker.
Speaker 3 (26:47):
He's got his mind made up.
Speaker 4 (26:48):
And he's sure as hell not talking to anyone in
the media about it, and he's sure as hell not
talking to an agent about it. So that that decision
if they're taking a quarterback, actually taking a quarterback has
probably already been made, or they have a really good
idea of who it's going to be and it's not
going to change and it's not going to get out.
(27:09):
So all this stuff we keep reading and hearing, to me,
it's all fluff. It's all dramas, all bs because it's
either an agent who's trying to, you know, take shots
at Shador Sanders so it makes his guy look better,
maybe a team saying we can pass on Shador and
get a quarterback in another round, or it's a team
it's some guy who's like kind of knows the plans,
(27:29):
like well, you know, maybe they wanted to follow him,
you know, maybe the Jets wanted to follow him at seven.
And so there's people who want to bad mouth and right,
because remember the whole comment about well there was a
quarterback coach from a team in the top seven who
said he didn't have a Really it's like, well why
top seven?
Speaker 3 (27:44):
Why not just top ten? But why would Dion say,
let me ask you this, if it's fabricated, why would
Dion say he knows the name of the person doing
the talking, because he might make it be an agent,
see because to me, the way I mean we've experienced
with the guys like David Mulligeta, we've experienced that where
they go on these campaigns and try to protect their
(28:05):
client or or the perceived protecting.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
Of their client, because they're so scared or so concerned
about losing out it. Like we've seen guys who this
happens with, and they'll they'll try to deny it, but
like all these insiders will tell you, they won't say
they won't say it on air because they don't want
to hurt that relationship.
Speaker 3 (28:21):
And there are so many.
Speaker 4 (28:21):
Politics behind the scenes that go on with this stuff.
So I'm sure Dian has a good idea of who
said what or who's saying what.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
I can I knowing him if he said I know
who it is, you all want me to call it
like I am I going to call his name out.
My take on it is it just further perpetuates the
narrative when when Prime does that, which they don't care.
They don't care if it perpetuates the narrative of the
pressure that will come with drafting Shador Sanders. They don't
(28:53):
the Sanders family, they don't like they're going to be
who they're going to be. They're going to handle things
the way they're going to handle them. And for Shadoor
to feel as though he's being unfairly, unjustly criticized, scrutinized,
whatever it is, hated on, he's basically telling y'all, look,
I'm I don't I don't pay attention to it. I'm focused.
(29:15):
I've had to deal with it all along. I'm good
with it. I think where the whole issue of all
of this turns into like a bigger deal as it
applies to Shador Sanders is the influence of Dion Sanders.
It has to it has to be that you're going
into a situation where things do not go the way
(29:38):
that they are supposed to go with Shador Sanders, whether
it's getting him on the field, Imagine Shadoor Sanders goes
to a team and doesn't win the starting job. What
pressure are you going to feel? Deon or Shador Sanders
goes to the team and he's not very good? What
(29:58):
pressure are you gonna feel? And how do you get
through it? How do you get through it? The difference
between a David Mulgato or any other of these agents
out here or any other you know prospects out here.
They do not have one of the most influential figures
in all of sports as a father and by the way,
(30:20):
an involved dad, like he'll tell you I'm his dad.
He does not play around with the idea of being
a protector of his kids. I'm their dad. This is
a compromising position. No matter how you look at it,
(30:42):
you are putting yourself in a compromised position. If you
take Shador saying, unless unless there is a relationship of
trust and respect between Dion Sanders and people within the
organization of which Shador gets drafted to's not that relationship.
You're You're you're at risk.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
So do you think, say, for example, the Giants at three,
do you think there would be hesitation to take him
if he doesn't get an opportunity to play right away,
because the thought would be, well, Dion can come take
my job, and they would want to pair these guys up.
Speaker 3 (31:19):
Do you think there's I don't think that's the hesitation.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
I think the hesitation in New York is more of
they feel like they're in a spot where they have
to win right now. They need a veteran and it's
not so much they're like worried about deon take. It
doesn't matter not gonna have a job if they don't
win games. So it's not about like, oh, we are
old taken and if things don't go, we're gonna get fired.
Like it doesn't matter who they take if it doesn't
go while they're fired. So I think the concern there
(31:43):
is more like, do you want to go the potentially
through the growing pains in having a rookie quarterback and
you know, not win as many games or not be
as competitive as you ultimately could be with a veteran.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
I think that's what's potentially at stake. It's amplified so
much more if its Shador Sanders, Like.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
The whole idea of him dropping, like because the only
thing that we've heard is well he would drop because well,
he came across as arrogant he came up.
Speaker 3 (32:09):
That's not that's I can understand.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
Listen, there was concerns about Jalen Carter because of the
accident and all that that happened. I could kind of
understand that Laramie Tunsils smoking weed out.
Speaker 3 (32:22):
Of a gas mask and being like I could kind
of drop. I mean that's that's age old. Like you said,
there's age old storyline like play out. So he's over confident.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Man.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
We heard the same thing about Caleb Williams. We've heard
the same thing about so many other people in the draft.
The idea that.
Speaker 3 (32:38):
You do not drop for being over he's too jacked up,
or he's got to like look at how yoked he is,
Like he doesn't even look like a quarterback. Yeah, I
mean he drinks Mayonna's with his coffee. There you go.
It's like, it's silly, Like I agree with that. That
stuff is. Man, that is manufacturing that guy.
Speaker 4 (32:59):
Because girlfriend's his girlfriend's so hot, it's gonna be a distraction.
Speaker 3 (33:03):
It's like, okay, and that's crazy because that has been
a part of it. Hey, that guy is too confident
for what he does for a living. Boy, God forbid.
We interviewed his mom. His mom didn't pass the test.
We interviewed his mom.
Speaker 4 (33:16):
This mom passed the test, maybe too much, maybe she
was she wants to be on the team.
Speaker 3 (33:21):
I agree with that. I agree with that sentiment. But
the one thing that differentiates this one from the others
is that you're Hey, you know, it turned out to
be a couple of times, Man, didn't I play out
in Arizona anyway? Anyway? So I'm just saying this is
a different scenario. What is wrong with I just think
(33:52):
that that's a lot like so you take New York,
for for instance, and you make them make them the
example they take should Sanders and you are now in
a scenario unless you have a relationship with Dion Sanders
and Dion No, if you don't think for two seconds
(34:12):
that Dion Sanders is gonna want to know the plan
for Shador Sanders because Dion is still going to make
sure that he's ultimately orchestrating Chador's success. Now, Shador ultimately
has to go out there and do what he has done,
which is he has to deliver on the field. So
make no mistake about this. This ain't no daddy's little
(34:33):
boy type deal where Schador can't hoop or can't play
ball and Daddy is the reason why he's hyped up.
Like No, Shador is a player. He plays ball like
he can stand on his own. But I don't I don't.
I don't think people understand the level of of of
(34:53):
what Dion Sanders feels for his kids in terms of
the amount of love that goes into what their what
their achievements are going to be. He is super involved,
super involved, so they're going to have to explain to
him what this plan is. Every like that's going to
(35:16):
be You gotta believe that this is going to be
problematic for any franchise unless there's a personal relation, And
even if there's a personal relationship, it still might end
up being problem problematic.
Speaker 2 (35:28):
But that's that's what I was gonna ask. Do you
think that Dion's been in these discussions, if there's been discussions,
had teams talking to Shade or talking, like, do you
think he's been brought in? Because if so, I don't
see a problem with that. Like, if he's involved and
he's been there every step of the way, Like like, don't.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
You have a problem that's problem? Don't you for any
other prospect you're gonna take Like there was stuff out that, well,
you're going to talk to their coaches they are so
I he says, you're going to talk to the coach
about who they are. But what I'm saying to you
is is if he's involvement is different than interviewing about
the character or about the skill sets, what does this
(36:08):
guy mean to you, like in that regard that's very
different than your child. This is my child. I want
to plan for my child.
Speaker 4 (36:18):
I think one of the things I've noticed about Coach
Prime of the course of his transition from Jackson State
to Colorado is he seems very concerned and aware of
the narratives and aware of what the conversation is, even
if it comes his way, right, because he popped off
one writer before, right, like, you can't even come around
(36:40):
here anymore, right, And I think there's a reason for this,
You know, when you have the perspective of a player
and then you're talking about young people and then you're
talking about in this case, his son, I think one
of the things. And maybe this is just coming off
as more of a father too, So you guys can
relate to this, and our listeners can maybe relate to this.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
But like, one of the things.
Speaker 4 (37:03):
I think you grow concerned by when I look back at,
like in my career when things went south for me,
is like is when you lose confidence and you start
putting your weight in what other people think or say.
And I think that's one thing that he's done an
unbelievable job of of not allowing whatever some of the
naysayers or narratives are that are out there to impact Schador,
(37:26):
to impact many of the young men he coaches and mentors.
And I think he's still protective of it, even though
he's you know, he's not their coach, he's their dad,
and he's still aware and protective of it, because that's
that comes along with you, like, you know, we can
say whatever we want, Like you mentioned about Jalen Carter
(37:46):
and now looking back after his rookie season, you're like,
my god, he might have been the best rookie right,
Like he was phenomenal this year. But at some point,
if some other altercation or off the field thing happens,
what are they going to bring up? They're gonna say, well, yeah,
he had some issues too when he's at Georgia, or
yeah he has like they're gonna bring up past events
(38:07):
and and if anything whatever happened with Shador, the narrative
in the media is gonna be like, well, do you
remember the combine he had a bad interview and you remember, like.
Speaker 3 (38:13):
Like that's that's how this all works.
Speaker 4 (38:16):
And so I think he's super aware of how those
narratives can kind of stick with guys and stick with
players whether they're true or not.
Speaker 3 (38:25):
They do right, that's the truth. Absolutely, they do well.
And well, here's the reality is everyone can be victim
of that. To cert a certain I'm not a victim
of it, but you know, but the narrative always stay
with me.
Speaker 4 (38:39):
Yeah, exactly, And and and here's the thing is he
knows that because he experienced it firsthand as a player
as great as he was, a Hall of Famer at
every flipp and level, he he still knows that. Like
there's probably things that people said about him that he
was like, this was never true, but people said it,
(39:00):
so other people believed it and it got out there.
Speaker 3 (39:02):
And here's the thing is in today's society.
Speaker 4 (39:04):
Today's world, and we've seen this and I'm not trying
to get off into a certain tangent, but more often
than not, people have to prove their innocence instead of
proved their guilt. And so it's become now we're like
if someone says something, then it's like, well, it must
be true, be true because someone said something on social
media or someone said something coming out of the combine,
(39:26):
so it must be true. And it's like, well, dude,
now we have to go on a campaign to defend
something and waste energy on something that isn't it really true,
or maybe it was just a.
Speaker 3 (39:36):
Bad moment for someone or an awkward run in.
Speaker 4 (39:39):
Like not to sound weird, but like I was coming
out of a dental appointment yesterday some guy stopped his
car in the middle of traffic to like say hello
and say you know, He's like I got my jersey
from my son all stuff, and I was like talking
to him, and meanwhile there's like some cars started to
line up because he's blocking traffic, and one of the
guys behind him is like, hey, cross the get out
(40:00):
of it. He's like yelling at me, and I'm like,
I'm sorry, I'm just trying to talk to this dude.
This that guy probably thinks I'm an asshole now, right,
because I was like, buddy, just relaxed for a second.
Speaker 3 (40:08):
Like always you signed two hundred. But but you get
my point. It's like, it only takes in this society,
it only takes one person. No, I'm just it only
takes now more than ever one person. No, You're like
change all of that, right, You're right, b.
Speaker 4 (40:26):
Also, I thought I was gonna have a list this morning.
I'm not sure if I sound like I have one
or not. Like after yesterday, heard it loud clear, Yeah, yeah,
A list a little bit. No, you didn't list, but
you shout it out there loud and clear.
Speaker 3 (40:39):
I was like, hey, hey, pal, let's lift it up
over hair. You let this guy here talk with me
for a while.
Speaker 4 (40:44):
You got that invisive line and no, My whole the
whole side of my face was no, hey, pet pole,
lift it up over here.
Speaker 3 (40:51):
You getting a game, though, you definitely give me a game.
And I'll say this. I'll say this, it's that one
hundred and one person's autograph you don't sign that makes
you that a hole, right, that's the one hundred and
first person that thinks you are the worst person in
the world and will tell people how much of a
d bag you are because you didn't sign one hundred
and one you know, autograph, that's one thing, But gotten
(41:14):
one hundred and one autograph before you know what I'm saying, Oh, bro,
I've signed. I signed. I signed until I'm done because
I've been told When I was a kid, I was
told no by a guy that was like my biggest hero,
and it was a high school guy there's a high
school basketball player. I ran off on my dad. You know,
my dad ain't got no feet. I just ran off
while you got prosthetic gloves. I just ran off on
my dad. My dad can't keep up. I didn't ran
(41:36):
up the bleachers to go get the autograph from this
dude's basketball player. A big fan of asking for the autograph.
He was like, later, kid, I'm watching the game. Wow.
My dad was like, hey, come on, you can't sign him.
Take a picture to the sign an autograph. When he's like,
I'm just I'm focused right now, I said, don't worry
about it. Dad. I said, if I ever make it
in life, I'll never be like him, and walked away.
(41:57):
So I always I never say no ever, I'll never
say no anyway. That's sidebar, just super quickly with Dion
Sanders in the scenario. What you're saying is so relevant, Q,
because Dion can take and make Dion has made his
narrative from day one, since he was a player until
(42:20):
present day now, and make make no mistake about it,
this is about Shador. This has become about Shador Sanders
the storyline. But Shador or excuse me, Deon Sanders would
be this advocate for any of his players, just so
we're clear on that, if you're playing for Deon Sanders
and you're a part of his his team, he is
(42:42):
going to fiercely advocate for you as much as he's
doing for Shador Sanders. And that's interesting in itself because
we're not hearing this about Travis Hunter, and you're not
seeing a ton of interviews by Travis Hunter, and you're
not seeing any thing really being said from Dion about
(43:03):
Travis Hunter because they've left. They're not messing with him.
Nobody's messing with him. They're choosing, like for somebody to
come out and say what they said about Shador Sanders.
You chose that, So let's not look at Shador like
he's a problem for addressing it. Let's not look at
Dion like he's a problem for addressing it. Y'all chose
(43:24):
to put that narrative out there on him. You just
happen to do it to somebody that's like a manning like,
you know, you don't want to mess with the Godfather.
You mess with Arch, you you gotta come make an appearance,
you gotta kiss the ring. Deon Sanders is on that
same level you mess with the Godfather, you gotta make
an appearance, you gotta kiss the ring. That's the type
(43:46):
of influence and power that Dion Sanders wilts wilts and
at the at the pro level, in the college or
in the football space, in the sports space, in the
media space. He's everywhere. He is everywhere, and he's respected
and hated and most likely i mean most people like him.
(44:07):
That's the situation, that's the position that they're in. And
he don't have a problem with with engaging, no problem.
And that could be a problem for Shador Sanders because
these teams may not want to they may not want
to have that smoke.
Speaker 2 (44:20):
Last time, there was something similar to this with the
questions about whether or not you want to remember LeVar Ball, like, oh,
do you really want to have to deal with him?
Speaker 3 (44:28):
It's like, man, that's it's even different from that. But
but the point is, like, these kids aren't getting in trouble.
You know, he's a good dad. Man, he's a good dad.
He might be considered to be able the top, but
he's a brander.
Speaker 2 (44:41):
Yeah, And it said that you don't hear his stuff
about oh he's a terrible father, he's this and that
like I have no I.
Speaker 3 (44:46):
I mean, Lamello grabs some sunglasses. Yeah, and he's a
gangster rapper now primarily, but you know, but him there
you go. It's it's you know, inspirational stuff like that,
at least to the quality lyrics he puts together.
Speaker 2 (44:58):
I just I look at I go oh. People are trying.
People are trying to find something wrong with every one
of these prospects, as opposed to like, hey, maybe he's
just a really good player who believes in his abilities.
And if that's the case, I don't know what separates
that him from anybody else who's been a great player
in the league.
Speaker 3 (45:17):
Like it's just get everybody wants a Barry Sanders. Nobody
wants a Deon Sanders. But yet you love watching Deon
Sanders just as much as you like watching Barry Sanders.
Like some guys are talkers, some guys aren't. Just different,
that's all.
Speaker 2 (45:32):
I don't think there's a shot in hell he gets
past either the Giants at three.
Speaker 3 (45:36):
Or the Raiders at six. I don't know, man, not
a shot in hell. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (45:42):
I'm possible. I'm willing to take bets here on the show.
He doesn't get past three or six and all that
doubt that you're throwing.
Speaker 3 (45:51):
I'm not throwing any I hope, Dian, here's that doubt
for me.
Speaker 1 (45:57):
Be sure to catch live editions of two Pros and
AUP of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar Errington and Jonas
Knox weekdays at six am Eastern three am Pacific.
Speaker 2 (46:07):
I'm not saying that this is the wisest thing to do.
I just want to present an opportunity out there, all right,
courtesy of our friends on DraftKings.
Speaker 3 (46:17):
All right, just want to point this out. The biggest underdog.
Speaker 2 (46:22):
In the tournament later today is Mount Saint Mary's plus
thirty one and a half against Duke in a forty
minute game, plus thirty one and a half. So at
the start of the game, you're up thirty one to nothing.
If you're Mount Saint Mary's and you like that underdog,
(46:45):
why would you not at least just look at that
and go that's a lot of damn points. Point Cooper
Flag says, Hey, I'm paying free and he's going to
try and get back, but that's a lot of points.
Speaker 4 (46:59):
To me?
Speaker 3 (47:00):
Why not?
Speaker 2 (47:01):
Why not just look at Mount Saint Mary's there, they're
not gonna win again, but just keep it within thirty
one points.
Speaker 3 (47:06):
So hold on, hold on, hold on.
Speaker 4 (47:07):
Is your segment to bet on a dog, but not
to win, but to cover. I'm just because my my
interpretation was we were supposed to bet at a dog
to win outright, Like that's where the money's at. Not
not Jonas's style where he's afraid to pick a winner
and live. He just wants to pick someone to cover
the spreads it. We're saying a dog a dog right
now to outright win.
Speaker 3 (47:30):
I'll give you two, give us two. Vanderbilt. I think
they take out Saint Mary's today. Vanderbilt is a good team.
The SEC has got a lot of teams in the tournament.
It's a tough conference. This year.
Speaker 4 (47:42):
Vanderbuilt outright beat Saint Mary's. They're getting four and a half.
Depending on where you look, I like get yah. I
like Vanderbilt to win out right. There's another one that's
a tighter spread eight nine seed. I like Baylor of
Mississippi State.
Speaker 3 (47:56):
Neither one of those is gonna hit. Okay, looking through
I'm sorry you're mumbling. What are you saying? One of
those is gonna hit? For sure? Based on what you
did yet, I wouldn't be surprised if Robert Morris. Now
you know I'm ahead of you Alabama. How about I'm
ahead of you, right, jo Jonas, you know you're still
like bringing up the rear. What else is new? Points?
(48:19):
I like Romo, like the colonials. Yeah, I just brought
them up the other week, so it might have been
like foreshadowing. I'll take they might, they might roll on
the tide. You know, I'll take my chances plus thirty
one and a half. Why can I give you another one?
I should look at who's this.
Speaker 4 (48:36):
Memphis is a two point underdog versus Colorado State because
Tyrese Hunter is questionable.
Speaker 3 (48:41):
For the game.
Speaker 4 (48:42):
I believe he's their guard, and that's that's sending you
some signals that he is probably not gonna play. I
still think Memphis is the better team if they're getting
to first Colorado State. I'm glad they take those two points.
Speaker 3 (48:57):
Well, you guys don't have the guts to pick a sixteen.
Speaker 4 (49:01):
H Robert Moore not to cover, dude, pick one the
outright win. Jonas, give us give us something, Jonas, I.
Speaker 3 (49:07):
Don't need to do that. Plus and a half. Hey,
I'll go with got we've got plus Is it true that, uh,
the team managed plus and a half? Who are you
looking at, Robert Morse? Okay, oh, Bobby Moll I didn't
kid that, clus I think that.
Speaker 2 (49:29):
I mean, well, I've actually seen it at plus twenty
two and a half, so that means it's coming down
a little bit beyond the man Colonials play basketball lead.
Did the the team manager from McNee state?
Speaker 3 (49:44):
Did he? Uh?
Speaker 2 (49:45):
He got nil deals because he carried out some boombox
before U before the game.
Speaker 5 (49:50):
Yeah, he's the star of the tournament so far, a
mere con right.
Speaker 3 (49:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (49:56):
The cheerleaders were wearing socks with his face on it.
He's got T shirts, He's uh, he's already got an
ni L deal, getting endorsement deals with Buffalo Wild Wings,
tick pick and Insomnia.
Speaker 3 (50:06):
What type of huh tipick? What tick picks? Tick picks?
You better say that slower. Hey what he said sticks picks?
Speaker 2 (50:20):
Yeah, he's getting that i L deals from walking out
with a boom box.
Speaker 3 (50:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (50:26):
The boom box was sponsored by Buffalo Wild Wings as
uh as the logo on it, by the.
Speaker 3 (50:31):
Way, brilliant.
Speaker 2 (50:32):
Well it looks it looked like he uh, he's got
free reigns to say every lyric to those songs.
Speaker 3 (50:38):
Oh really, Oh really.
Speaker 2 (50:40):
That's how it works, all right, nobody nobody appeared to
have a problem with that.
Speaker 3 (50:47):
But good forever.
Speaker 4 (50:49):
It looks like he doesn't say it. It looks like
he stops during those moments.
Speaker 3 (50:53):
Oh yeah, I mean from what I what I saw. Yeah,
I like to get Levar's thoughts on this. I haven't look.
I've watched.
Speaker 4 (51:02):
I've watched a couple of videos, like there's one going
around now that's like the game was over when Nickneice
walked out, and it just shows a video of them
coming out of their locker room with him playing the
boom box.
Speaker 3 (51:12):
I don't think he says every word. I don't what
was the song playing? Lee? Can you find out the
songs they're playing during the viral clip that went out there,
because Joan's clearly knows that that, uh you know that
the word is in there? So what word are you
talking about? They all say it? Did? They all say it? Headed?
Speaker 2 (51:38):
Yeah, So it seems pretty obvious there. I'm just curious
what the the nil deals look like for him, Like
what's he get? Is he getting like a two hundred
dollars gift card from Buffalo Wild Wings. Is he getting
like a free bottle of mango Hobnaro sauce?
Speaker 3 (51:52):
Like? Can I be honest?
Speaker 4 (51:54):
Some of these cats are just happy to say that
an NIL deal to make it look cool, like yeah,
I've got a stick on the boom box from Buffalo
Wild Wings, Like they send me a boom box to
carry out, But the reality is they don't actually have
much more than that, you know what I'm saying? Like
it just it sounds cool and looks cool to be
a college kid that's not an athlete, But to have
(52:16):
an NIL deal?
Speaker 3 (52:17):
Does that make sense?
Speaker 2 (52:18):
Uh?
Speaker 5 (52:18):
You have the details on the nil Well no, I'm sorry,
I had the details on the song. Yeah, it's in
and out lud Foe l u d f o e
lud fox lud fo in and out, in.
Speaker 3 (52:30):
And out by ludfo All right, there you go. He
definitely is not pausing, that's for certain. He ran the
red light there, he's not pausing, and he's in it
like he feels it. But there's nothing wrong with that.
Why can't he do it? Hey? No, pro can't you
do it? That's fine? She's a minority too. Why can't
(52:53):
he do it. He's he's on the approved list. What
you try and make a beef? He approved? Yeah, he's
on the approved list, approved a little bit of the list.
You are way off, yeah there, way off you are?
You are so yeah, well that's not what you said
(53:14):
a super Bowl. I mean you got a little upset
about it. You are right, would be you guy? I
know you know you got a little upset about my pigment.
Oh yeah, you are darker than that. You know that.
People may be what do I need to do about you?
Will never be approved? Why not? You will know?
Speaker 2 (53:32):
Okay, what if I sat in the tanning bed for
like three weeks.
Speaker 3 (53:35):
It would never help you. At this point, he turned red. Yeah,
it would never help you, bro, You would burn immediately.
The lobsters can't say it. No, no, they cannot stop. Man. No,
Karen's either all I wanted for Christmas. B but my
man was on it though. He definitely he definitely was dry.
(53:58):
He had his foot to the game. So on that
on that song, it's his name Khan. Yeah, yeah, around,
I ain't will let it slide. I mean he's on
the approved list, man. You know, they got a different
day and it ends with the same word. You gotta
put another word in front of it. You know, we'll
(54:22):
keep that off. We'll keep that I tell you off air. Yeah,
I texted to you. Is Lee on that list? He approved? No? Okay, nope, Sorry, Lee,
I can't approve it like you know, No, I just know.
I'm just trying to help you all out, you know. Well, yeah,
(54:44):
there you go. Some people get everything. Apparently I just said,
y'all you know approved. That's why Ay from that one,
That's why they're approved.
Speaker 4 (54:56):
Can we can we acknowledge, by the way, not that
you transition away from what was just text, but can
we acknowledge that the matchup everyone was hoping for is
going to take place in the second round? The John Caliperi,
Rick Beino, Hey, yeah, you're doing squaring.
Speaker 3 (55:13):
Off first one another. Is there a live line for
that game yet, Jonas? Because I've got a sneaky feeling
it's gonna be a tight line. And I wouldn't be
shocked if Arkansas was favored.
Speaker 2 (55:22):
All right, try and guess the spread. I don't think
it's more than two and a half points.
Speaker 3 (55:29):
Give me. I mean again, just saint John's minus six
and a half? That many? God, I would take Arkansas.
Speaker 4 (55:38):
I mean, outside of being a poorly coach in the
sense of scheme, I think that the more talented team.
Speaker 2 (55:45):
But now you don't want to take Arkansas because they
have a Jonas and a Knox on the roster.
Speaker 4 (55:51):
That actually is the reason why I'm rooting for Saint John's.
But I also just want Rick Patino to plan his
flag that he's the best Kentucky basketball.
Speaker 3 (56:01):
Coach of of my time.
Speaker 4 (56:04):
That's what I'd like him to do, just because I
feel like there's some Kentucky games who'd like to be going.
Speaker 3 (56:09):
How how far you guys have you got them in
the final? Oh? I have them? Oh gosh, I think
I did pick Arkansas to beat him. Oh yeah, you
love Calipari. Man. Here's the thing is, I don't. I
just know they're a more talented.
Speaker 4 (56:26):
Team, and I think Patino's a better coach. But I
think in this instance, your stars got to show up,
and if they do, I mean, I'll tell you that's much.
I'll take the points gladly. Now I've got Arkansas losing
ultimate of Texas Tech. I think they're more talented, but
I just.
Speaker 3 (56:43):
Love the Saint John's is good again. I love it.
Too throwback? Does does Patino stay though? Like?
Speaker 4 (56:49):
Why is a blue blood like Ohio State he's got
so many resources or some of these other.
Speaker 3 (56:54):
Schools, why they not go after them? Some would say
Saint John's is a blue blood basketball school. Yeah, I
mean like your old school, like Big East. Yeah, old school,
Big East. Saint John's is, like that's a name that's
mentioned amongst the annals of definitely historical school. He's seventy two.
How many more moves he got in them? Pang, Well
(57:15):
that's what I'm saying. You probably got one. But basketball
you can rebuild in a year. Doesn't take a long time.
That's what he's done. Yeah, it's not a long time
to build in basketball. And I I.
Speaker 4 (57:26):
Guess here's my perspective looking at it is there is
a group of haves and have nots. And the haves
are like all the spending that's done in the SEC
some collective other teams that are that are bigger programs, right,
bigger athletic programs that have bigger budgets. And then there's
like a select few of schools that like don't have
a football program. And so men's basketball is you know,
(57:49):
they're they're you know, that's everything to them. That's you know,
you could put Xavier right, Exaviers in that category, Marquettes
in that category. There's a number of schools that if
they don't have a big time college football program, you're
they're gonna lean heavily on basketball, right. So that's where
you kind of look at it and say, like Saint
(58:09):
John's falls in that category.
Speaker 3 (58:11):
And I can understand why, well.
Speaker 4 (58:13):
People would say, oh, that's a that's a big job
or that's you know, that is a that is a
big you know, blue blood, but not in the sense
of having the resources that I'm talking about right, Like
the resources there are not the same that they're going
to have that's at you know, Auburn or some of
these other SEC schools, you know, or Ohio State for example,
and as far as what they're gonna spend on their
roster too.
Speaker 3 (58:35):
We just love an earthquake, man. I felt something building
just shook.
Speaker 5 (58:41):
I didn't feel it, but I'm always you know, shaking.
Speaker 2 (58:43):
Don't worry, I've got the earthquake app Let me go
ahead and check this out right now.
Speaker 3 (58:46):
I'll get back to you guys on that are we
are we underneath something? You know?
Speaker 5 (58:52):
It's one of those buildings where sometimes if a big
truck is coming through or like a certain part of
the building, then it kind of shakes.
Speaker 3 (59:00):
Know. That was like a boom, Like that was like
a I don't know. I felt it too. That's interesting.
I might get up out of here, y'all. I might
catch y'all. I have to check y'all final well, you know,
you know, brothers know when to get up out, you
know what I mean. I don't that that felt a
(59:20):
little weird. There have been a lot of earthquakes here lately,
which is good news, by the way, because it relieves the.
Speaker 2 (59:25):
Pressure everyone's waiting for the big one. You get a
bunch of four point two's mixed in, you know, maybe
you're not going to get that ten point eight that
everyone's uh doom and glooming that's.
Speaker 3 (59:33):
Going to break break California off. Yeah, just thinking going
separate California.
Speaker 2 (59:38):
Just for the record, though. If if there is an earthquake,
I'm staying on the air. You know, some people are
built different. Yeah, I was about to get up out
of here. Man, I'm still thinking about it. Like I
felt that, I kind of felt it and I kind
of heard it.
Speaker 3 (59:51):
There was a Aska. What what's that? Where are you
going to go? John's back to your coffin. I mean,
you know he's gonna fly away to a to a
safer place, Like, what are you gonna do? He's got it,
he's got an advantage. He's got a clear advantage. He
can turn it to a bat damn. Yeah. The most
(01:00:15):
recent what I'm seeing was in Greece, So you think
we felt that here? Just it was a one point too.
I think it was Lee. I think let one Go
is called an earth quake. You know, the quake could
have shook us here. Yeah, I don't know. Hey, I
just felt something, That's all i'm gonna say. And I
(01:00:36):
felt like it was above me. I don't know, it's
it's kind of weird, but I felt it all right.
Maybe it was them next door, what they got going on.
I mean, I don't know, two pros. And maybe it
was that dude in the bushes the other the other week.
You know, maybe it was them. Maybe. You know, they
get real strong. When you you hit that pipe, you
(01:00:58):
get a little bit extra strange, hit the wall, you know,
we might have felt it. Yeah, that's Jim equipment. They
get speed too, get a lighter and a spoon. It's
like dumbbells.
