wheels and tires. You know what's interesting, guys, As you know,
(00:44):
I've had a bit of this is this is my
busier time and basically my job from UH. I was
in Chicago doing all those games and then I landed
Monday night. Tuesday we did I do a TV show
from my house and I did the pod and the
radio show, and then I did the first four games,
(01:05):
and then Thursday and Friday it's just games Wald to
Wall pregame show, then games Wald to Wall. So you're
trying to get acclimated with everything else. I mean, look,
you're on social media, so had Rogers been traded, we
would have been down with it. But I was you
were waiting for anybody to like, hey, there's some there's
some interest there for so and so on Lamar Jackson.
(01:27):
But I haven't seen any of it. Here's Jeremy Fowler,
as who covers the NFL for ESPN, on the Patriots
potentially being a wildcard team. Oh that's that's what he said.
This is a weird one, right, Like, we're at a
point where my initial thought was, hey, let's not freak out.
(01:49):
Let's not freak out on Lamar Jackson and all these
teams saying they're uninterested because they're not really interested at
five years guaranteed. And then what had happened between then
and now is Lamar had that tweet midweek last week
where Adam Schefter said it was a five year, two
(02:11):
hundred million dollars deal and Lamar said it was three
for one thirty guaranteed. But I need an agent, so
I understand that there's cranked up when no one is
interested or no one is offering a contract to a
restricted free agent. At this point, in time. I think
(02:33):
it's pretty obvious what's happened. Now Now you're just trying
to wait it out what Lamar Jackson is And I
don't know, are you guys do you do the real
estate thing? You look online? What about you, Chase dude?
Do you look online like on a weekly basis, a
couple times a week? Everett at like real estate. I'm
not that guy, but I know a lot of people
(02:53):
that are that guy. Buyer. Yes, yeah, because you got
you get kid, growing family, right, and you're like, yes, okay,
so you So what happens is you know this to
be true, is you're getting like input from why it's
news which you're reading or online on what the market
(03:13):
is doing. And you have an area that you're looking at,
and you know about what things are going for, what
things are worth, and then you see something, you see
something listed on the market, You're like, okay, or do
they have do they have gold plated floors there? Right?
It's just like so crazily over And I guarantee that
(03:34):
you experienced this because we're in southern California. And if
you go back a year a year and a half ago,
like things were going for ridiculous amounts, ridiculous amounts. Now,
things have leveled off, but there are still some people
trying to capitalize on the real estate markets. Like, hey, dude,
you missed it right. It's like the guy walking into
(03:56):
Walmart on the Saturday after Black Friday. I'm like, are
all the deals? You know, they're all gone? But and
I think it's it's interesting we see this in cars
as well. You know, the car thing. They didn't have
the inventory and use cars were at ridiculously high prices,
so you'd walk into a car dealership And I did
(04:16):
this when I was looking for my daughter to get
her a car. This is like six months ago, and
I was like, well, so new cars are going above sticker.
They're like, yeah, like fifteen to twenty grand above sticker.
I was like, I'll never pay above sticker for a car.
That doesn't make any sense, Like, well, the inventory is
low and use cars are in many ways more expensive.
Like I'll just wait it out now. But so that
(04:38):
sends you. What Lamar Jackson's doing is listing his car
above asking price. You know, hey man, somebody got you
know those new Hummers that people people have been paying
like twenty five thirty grand above asking for those electric
electric hummers, and they have the crab crawl you can like,
(04:59):
I don't know when you'd ever use that, but it
is a cool feature. Turns out, though they've got all
kinds of issues with their charging network, which they don't
have the home charging station, how much they because now
the trucks are actually coming out. I've seen a couple
of them, but because the trucks are so heavy, the
batteries don't last at all. Like, yeah, it's it's a
little bit dicey. So now you can get on a
(05:20):
Ford Lightning Ford F one fifty Lightning wait list and
you're not paying like some ridiculous amount over secret. That's
Lamar Jackson. So I think these NFL teams are just
sitting there going like, look, we're gonna go through the
free agency, We're gonna go through the draft, and then
after the draft, let's see what's what. Let's see if
we can get somebody, see if we get we want.
(05:40):
We got to deal with other free agents that are
shorter term contracts. Bayer, do you think he gets offered
a five year deal? No? No, And on the heels
of what you're saying, the Morris Smith is trying to
claim that NFL owners are colluding against Lamar Jackson because
(06:01):
fully guaranteed contracts were given to Deshaun Watson and Kirk Cousins.
But it's to your point. If a house is five
hundred thousand dollars more than you know, then then what
its actual value is. No one's going to go and
see it. That's the way. No one's showing up to
the open house because it's so ridiculous. You don't have
to collude, you know, to realize that the price tag
(06:24):
is just yeah, not what the market is right now? Correct? Correct?
If you could get one sucker to do it, you know,
the Cleveland brons want to show up to that house
and buy it for that price tag. But yeah, it's
exactly the same thing. Yeah, it was of sheer what
we I guess what we consider sheer desperation, right, Yeah,
(06:46):
that's what it was out of And look a lot
of people did that with their house. And you know,
I have I live an area where there's a there's
one main street and I remember there's a house that's
sold for like a crazy amounts redone. It was incredible,
But it's on like this, I mean, it's not like
a major street. And I have a friend who's a
(07:06):
really good realtor, and he was like, you know, when
this thing dials back, you know, we're in an area
where it's pretty primarial estate. You're gonna be okay, You're
gonna protect yourself. The people that we hurt the most
are the ones like that guy who paid way over
what he should have for a house that's it's still location, location, location,
and though it's in the right town, it's you know,
it's on a major street. And like, look, you still
(07:30):
have at the end of the day, with Lamar Jackson,
you still have a guy who runs a football more
than anybody else. Doesn't want to play in Greg Roman
system anymore. By the way, like that there's a there's
a little bit. I know that's not a major part
of it, but it's at least part of it where
he didn't want to play in Greg Roman system anymore.
They got rid of Greg Roman. Like so I don't
even know what you look like in a traditional pro
(07:51):
style offense. And oh yeah, by the way, like a
am I paying you for five years guaranteed you didn't
play seven team games last two years? Will I'll run less. Well,
that takes away from who you are, but more than anything,
like it's just I don't think. I think when Burrow,
if Burrow gets his extension this offseason, if um who
(08:16):
else is eligible for an extension, Herbert, I think it
could get an extension. I don't know if they'll do
it in with the Chargers, you know, even Jail hurts
a yeah tah, like do you think too it is
gonna can I get one? I just think this is
a classic case of you go on real or dot
com or you go on Zillo whatever, and you look
at one you're like, what you're asking like five hundred
(08:39):
thousand dollars more for your house than everybody else's house.
I'll just wait, wait a couple months, and eventually it'll
start going down. It's I've heard it called missing the market, right,
missing the market and the idea of missing the market.
And I've I've bought and sold a lot of houses.
Is you want to You don't want your house to
be sold within the first like three days it's on
the market, that's when it was too low a price.
(09:01):
But you don't want to listen. You want to listen
for as much as possible. But not so much that
it turns people off. And then when what ends up
happening is you chase the market, then you start dropping
your price, dropping your price, dropping price, and you take
less than you should have, lesson you should have. Kind
of like the idea of being a realtor. I think
I'd be a really good realtor. You know. Yeah, I
(09:25):
can see you picking up your signs at the street corners.
That that's the only part that I wouldn't be right
Saturday or Sunday afternoon. Then you got to drive and
you can turn your hazard lights on, and you could
do both. Because I just saw I sent something. I
saw something yesterday where a Channel five local KTLA newscaster
here also is like a realtor, Like he doesn't does
(09:50):
you guys make real money? Right? Wow? What does it
say about television? I mean, right, you go, you're doing
realtor and you do a TV at the same time,
so you you could do it. Mam man. I'd like
to talk to you about the crash last night out
for the house. You see a thing that I didn't
see anything was at home? Have you thought about selling
your house? So you're saying, John, that's a conflict of interest.
(10:12):
I don't know if it's a conflict of interest, but
it just seems like kind of odd to be like
I'm then, you know, top seller in Realator and also
tonight act to be there at ten o'clock for the news.
So I think it's great if your boss on TV
lets you do it. It helps you from be a motion.
You see me on TV. Now, you see me, you
see me in your home. Now I'll sell your own.
It's better than the bus stop, Rember. Those are the
(10:33):
things you have your picture on the bus stops. Temperatures
upstairs will be about five percent warmer, five degrees warmer
than they are downstairs. When you open up the door
with cooling front, should move in and move through the
front of the living room. Nice. Nice to answer. You're
a meteorologist and realator. That's good. That's good. I like
(10:54):
that one. I like that. I like the reporter one though,
the reporter one where you're gonna go in door to
door and you some of those things. When was the
last time you watched a local newscast? I watched um,
I watched Fred Rogan's Goodbye recently, and I thought to myself,
just that, like I think this is the first time
I've tuned into a local newscast and at least a decade.
(11:15):
I mean during the pandemic there was I guess there
was some local you know, with the protests and whatnot,
but um, but other than that, it was like, yeah,
that nobody's watching it. I think below the age of
sixty five. That's why all the newscasters are over sixty five.
I watch. What's hard not to watch when all the
(11:36):
local channels have seventy eight hours of programming of news.
I don't know if you notice that they literally have
a news show every single hour of the day. It's
quite unbelievable. If you're looking for to get into news,
this is the time to do it. If you're in
college right now, you'll get a job right out of college,
because there's literally a job for everybody in local news
(11:56):
here in Los Angeles. To answer that, I will say
that we're out for me because I only need to
see about thirty minutes of it, and a lot of
the stories are the same and recycled. But yeah, at
six o'clock, if Peppa Pig isn't on, well, quick turn
on the local news. Sorry, It's true. I can't take Kayu.
(12:19):
Kayu is the one I can't take. I don't even
see Kayu on anymore. I think they may have took
your idea, don't you feel, Jason, don't you get I
take Jason and Doug are on the same boat, Like
I kind of like at least like to know what's
kind of happening. But it's all on my Twitter, you know. Well,
I'll give you an example. That woman from was it
(12:40):
a Channel four NBC, she she was doing the weather
and she passed out and she's okay, right, We're all okay,
good Now I can make fun of it. John, I
know Jason and Doug don't. Yes, that was hysterical, right,
I'm sorry I was she faith, she's okay, Okay, it's okay.
(13:00):
If she wasn't okay, it wouldn't be funny. She's okay,
that it's funny. It is a little scary, right, But
like they just went but she happened to faint right
when the right the moment they threw it to her news,
Like there's twenty three hours and fifty nine minutes and
fifty nine other seconds that she could have fainted and
nothing would have happened, And instead, she fainted the second
(13:23):
they threw it to her. The point is that she fainted.
I don't when did that even happen. This was Saturday morning,
I believe, or Sunday, one of the two mornings earlier.
I think Saturday, Yeah, it was. It was Saturday. I
didn't hear about it, and I didn't see it on
social media until like a day later, only proving that
nobody watches it. Does that make sense? Yeah, I would
have known about it. I think TMZ put it out
(13:44):
and that's how I just saw it on my Twitter account.
So John's point, that wasn't like the eleven o'clock news.
That was a morning newscast that has you know, various
hours covered, and I think during that point. So when
they went to her at I don't know, seven am
or whatever the case was, you're not you guys aren't
okay with me saying that was hilarious because she's okay.
I don't think it was funny. I mean, I felt bad.
(14:06):
It was scary to see the way that she dropped.
I know, but she's okay. Yeah, but it doesn't still
Thank goodness that she's okay. It's okay now that I
know she's okay. It's hilarious. Like if she would have
broken her nose in the way down, or if there
would have been some serious ailment, then you're like, well
that that was terrible. But I'm like, oh, she's okay.
Oh my god, that's funny. Can I watch him and
replay that's sorry. That's how I'm wired. I make no,
(14:30):
I make I make no pause. They're just in there,
going no, don't want to touch that one. I think
it goes into that thing that Doug always quizzes us, Hannah,
which guy are you the guy that wants to watch
the person hurt themselves or not. I'd rather not see it.
I've heard about it now, and I'd rather just not
see it. I don't you don't want to see her
pass out. I don't know. I don't know. There's a
(14:51):
little bit of suffering there, a little bit. Here's no suffering.
She just goes down. They just go like, now we'll
go to Jenny with the weather. H Jenny, okay. But
I just I just liked I's there in the pre
existing condition or something she needs to be careful of
in the future. So I don't know. I'm not as
giddy as you up too fast. I'm not sure that

I love the word dude. That's definitely always been part
(15:36):
of my vocabulary, my vernacular. I've always been on what's up, dude?
They did what I'm dude more so than man. But
in in basketball, especially college basketball, we talk about dudes
and a dude dudes not necessarily a pro, but kind
(15:56):
of feels like it feels like they're sneakers, squeak different
and we'll talk about dudes in a second. Also talking
about John Calipari, which many people think he's putting the
blame on his players, is that the right way to
approach it? Dan dockets joins us. Of course, he was
a player, a great player at Indiana, famously shutdown Michael
Jordan in the NCAA tournament. Then he was an assistant
(16:19):
coach under Bob Knight. Then he became a head coach,
notably at Bowling Green and also for like five seconds
at West Virginia, where he bailed because that place was
a mess. If I remember correctly, At one point in time,
he was the interim head coach at Indiana as well,
cleaning up the mess that was left previous to Tim.
Then he's been a college basketball alist for major networks,
(16:40):
and now he has his own show on OutKick called
Don't at Me? Did I miss anything? Danny? No? No,
I think that pretty much covers it. Here's a trivia question.
You're ready, what famous person did Roger Goodell date? Very
famous athlete from an Olympics? Mary lou Retten. I don't know.
(17:01):
It's a tough one, Katerina. Roger Goodell? And really, yeah,
how about Roger Goodell? Not bad? Right? Um? All right,
let's let's start with the weekend before we get to
some of the other some of the other stuff. Perdue loses,
Perdue loses. You're not you guy. You did a radio
show forever in Indianapolis, now you do the national show. Um,
(17:26):
why do they keep losing to inferior teams? Quite frankly, yeah,
I don't think. I think athletic ability at the guard
position shows up, Doug. I've never seen this, and you've
been around basketball as long as I've been around basketball. Um,
I've never seen this. Last five minutes of the game,
perduced guards got their shot blocked by fd US guards
(17:52):
four times. Now, I've seen big guys come over. I'm
talking about the guy guarding the man blocked the shot
four times. Now, what that means is and again you'll
understand this, But I want explain this to your listeners.
People think you can get hot in basketball and the
only thing about offense you can get hot and defensively
where I know I have you, And there is nothing
(18:13):
that says that more than I you driving me. You
make a move, you think you got me Boom, I
swat your shot out of bounds, athletic ability at the guards,
quickness at the guards. And my friend, one guy that
I really respect. In fact, whenever I'm doing something basketball
wise or I want to know something, I called he
(18:33):
was in the Purdue crowd. He said, Dan, I'm telling you,
I never see anything like it. He goes. Players from
the get go were nervous as hell though cold crowd
was and in fact, having a big crowd over here
in Columbus, which from Indie, Doug is only it's less
than three hours two and a half hours from Purdue.
It's probably three and a half hours. So the huge
crowd said, the crowd didn't help him. The crowd actually
hurt him because every shot that was missed was met
(18:55):
with the grown. You know how that is. You're at home,
big crowd and you're missing and there's a grown. I
think it's it's Saint Peter's last year. I thought it
two years ago with North Texas, and I think of
this year, lack of quickness that the guard spot killed him.
Last year they had Jay n Ivey right, There wasn't
lack of quickness there, Yeah, it was Jake Nivey had
checked out. Jay Nivey is one of the biggest what's
(19:17):
the right words here? Frauds, uh not nothing, He's not
great and all that. I mean, trivick player, but he
had checked out on Purdue last year, and everybody at
Purdue was for the last month was like, why does
he keep getting beat on these You gotta remember Purdue
and their fan base and one of the few fan
bases that argue about defense, right, toughness plays here with
(19:38):
defensive works here, and they were all like, what is
this guy doing? And I'm talking about the last no,
probably month of the Big Ten season and Big Ten
tournament then then so yeah, even though he's athletic and
talented and all that stuff, he was a fraud defensively
with with Purdue fans and how he played. So how
much of that? And obviously you can't fix you know,
(19:59):
it's hard to mixed the athleticism on the You can't
do it on the fly. You can do it in
the offseason. Some you can do it in training, but
you can also do I mean like, look, you could
also win with guys that aren't a blur athletically. You
gotta gotta change how you play a little bit. But
a lot of them just losing that game was they
were tight, man, I mean, they were just tight. How
does Matt how do you fix that as a coach?
(20:21):
I don't know, a lot of people at Purdue are
all over man. You know. Look they were twelve or
forty two from players other than Dy, and a lot
of them were great. Looks Like when you coach, you
sit there and you got a right what kind of
shots are we getting? You know? Doug? I remember being
at Bowling Green. We're up on Acorn at twenty one
points at the half of and I'm threatened, and my
assistants like, coach, we're up twenty one. I go, yeah,
(20:42):
but we had three threes at the shot clock buzzer.
We threw one in from thirty five. You know, I
thought Purdue got great shots. And to your point, they
were tight the entire game. That's my buddy, say said,
even from the tip. He said, the whole Purdue place
was just tight. How does Matt fix that? And I
don't know, but I'm tell you something to meet the
biggest disappointment was this, do you're a perdue player. There
(21:05):
are some games and you know this, they're better than me.
You there are some games. Look, fellas, we ain't losing now.
I don't give a damn who fairly Dickinson is. I
don't give a damn whether their coach said they could
beat us, didn't say they're gonna be this, but we
are perdue. We won the big ten bite and we
ain't lose. We're gonna fight. And they didn't have any
of that. They went the opposite way. They looked like
a team that was on a seven game losing streak,
(21:26):
barely got into the tournament and reeling. And what Painter
did was he tried to put in Brandon Newman, and
he did. He put him in and Newman was a
little more athletic and can shoot the basketball, so he
made that switch from Ethan Morton a better defender, but
really on the perimeter, Brandon Smith is a good, really
good cloun You can win the Big Ten with him
as point guard. They did. But I'll also say this,
(21:48):
Doug a Big ten. You know some of those guys
that you and I both knew, like Lam and those
guys at ESPN that did the studio shows, they always
told me, man, your league's a fricking thick ank league.
You got no athletes, your stiff you know what I mean.
And it kind of shows kind of shows in the turn,
well what it takes. It's like Big ten football is
(22:09):
like this for a long time, right, what it took
to win the Big Ten in football you couldn't compete with.
I think Big twelve football is like this, where you know,
in order to win the Big Twelve, you know everything's
gotta be you gotta be able to stop the spread
and you got me to score a lot of points.
But you know, the reason they can't beat the SEC
is is just it's so different up front. You know,
(22:29):
in football, the Big Ten was too thick legged, and
now Ohio State, now Michigan, to a lesser extent, they're
getting the speed to compete football wise, basco wise normally.
Penn stated the exception this year. But you gotta have
a big dude, right, and then you get to the
tournament and you don't have to have a big dude.
Matter of fact, it actually holds you back when you
have a traditional big guy. You're so right about it.
(22:51):
I talked to Urban all the time, and I'm like,
you realize you changed the whole scope of recruiting in
the in the Big Ten because now you gotta be fast,
you gotta be athletic, and you can figure it out.
You know. One of the reasons, Izzo, I've always said
this about the tournament. If you're gonna score in the
fifties and low sixties, anybody can score in the fifties
and low sixties. White Virginia struggles. Now they did get
(23:13):
sixty seven produced scored in the fifties. You're scoring the fifties.
Anybody compaching. Now you get in the eighties. See Iso
is one of the few guys. And this is why
he's so good in March. Name a way they run
after makes they run after missus. Is it a dynamic
fast break? No, but they are going to run. They
pound the backboard and they get to the file line.
And he's got some decent shooters, but they run. They're
(23:35):
not thick legged. They're not just trying to bring it
up the court every time and grind it. Now, you
give him a lead, and this is what they did
this weekend. He did the old Beeheim thing. You give
him a lead five to six minutes ago, they're gonna
use twenty eight seconds on that shot clock. But it's
no secret. Think about the big ten yesterday, whoever the
big guy was, I can't remember his name, for Miami.
(23:57):
He didn't care about Trace Jackson Davis and him being America.
He got the ball and went back and dunked at
three different times in Jackson Davis's face, and Jackson Davis
quite frankly quit. We all knew Raised Thompson wasn't a
guy for that kind of everybody you know that pays
attention in the end, though, But but Miami just had
dudes that said, the hell with you, We're going to
(24:18):
the rim on you and don't try to block our shot.
I'm not you know, some guy from Wisconsin that plays
below the rim. These are athletes that are tough dudes,
man and smart by the way they go about it. Okay,
So why why are some many the blue bloods like
UCLA and Gonzaga, UM and Michigan State, those old ones
(24:39):
still playing? But Kentucky gets beat by Kansas State and
their coach says, hey, we just got more dudes than
they have. What's what's changed in the college landscape. I
don't know. I don't know if it's n I l
And now who's older? You know, Duke's still young. Cal
wasn't that young. In fact, by Cal standards, their team
(24:59):
was pretty old. I will tell you, like you know this,
Virginia hasn't won a game, you know then forever, other
than when they went on that big role. I thought
Caliperry's team Doug was the worst team skill wise that
I've seen Cal have. Now, I'm not gonna say I studied,
you know, every team, but obviously you watched a lot
of Kentucky basketball. I think that the job that coach
(25:19):
Tang did over to Kansas State with two players coming
in when that was it when he started. But he
wasn't wrong. I've said from the getto, said Greenberg, and
not argued early in the year, and then he stopped
arguing with me. I said, if you took off and
you played shirts and skins, and you played in the
no names on the front, and you played Kentucky against look,
Kansas State, you wouldn't know which one was Kentucky. You know,
(25:41):
they'll go back and think about when Boogie Cousins and
that crew was there, John Waller, think about any of
the crews right with Terrence Jones and Anthony Davis and
all those guys, you would know who Kentucky is. Kentucky
doesn't have guys. Duke's too young in an era where
guys are fifty year seniors, sixty year seniors. I mean,
people are crying that Rick Barnes was too physical. So
(26:02):
what Rick Barnes's team got down in the mud, as
they say, and knocked around a bunch of little freshmen,
and the freshman went away. There are a lot of
people are saying, well, you know, everybody's buying players. Well maybe, yeah, maybe,
but I think the age is a big, big difference.
I don't have you know, Kansas. You don't have your coach.
You've got a couple of pros at Arkansas. You know,
(26:24):
that's a tough matchup that could go either way no
matter what. But I think those young teams you gotta
be a little bit older now, I think I think
he stick with me. I think there's it's never one thing,
it's a bunch. Well, let's start the programs that used
to get the top five, top ten high school Americans. Right.
First thing is Kentucky. They have been good last couple
of years. That that's part of it. Okay, he's had
(26:44):
massive staff and I know he's got a good class
coming in, so they haven't been particularly good. So it's
not like this a Kentucky thing where they're putting guys
at the top of the NBA Draft. But now you
take the top you know three of the top five
domestic kids and two are playing the twins are playing
for what's an overtime Elite. You got Scoot Henderson playing
(27:07):
for Ignite. So now you're fighting over the of the
top ten, you're fighting over like six or seven of
them that are going to go to college maybe and
on a given year, even of the top ten, there's
like one or two real difference makers. And now because
of nil I mean, Alabama signed was a three top
hundred kids, Arkansas six. Duke's got a bunch. They're hard
(27:30):
to get, they're hard to win with, and they're hard
to keep. And then other teams, you know, like Penn
State's got because of COVID years. You not just have
old kids because of transfers. You've got old kids that
transferred and they've played four years of college basketball and
been good, and now they get a fifth year at
(27:52):
twenty three, twenty four years old, and they're gonna kick
the hell out of your eighteen nineteen. That's exactly right
and to your point. All right, So now you got
a guy was his name Reese, My son goes Illinois
State as assistant. They lose his kid. Reason was Antonio
Reese five hundred thousand dollars in an am money. Kid
goes in Kentucky. Okay, great. Well, instead of relying on
(28:14):
a first pick in the NBA draft or a top
five pick in the NBA draft, they're relying on a
transfer from Illinois State that was so bad that the
coach got fired. Dan Mullet, I mean, think about that
for just a second, think about the difference. You know
in you know, Anthony Davis or John Wall are the
guys that they're used to playing with. Even the tea kid,
you know, guys are used to playing with. With taking
(28:36):
a transfer in his first year. Now, look, if you
get the transfer and he's a good player, to your point,
and all of a sudden he's in the program for
two or three years, Okay, he'll become that, but he's
not in his first year. And then I believe this.
I think coaching is more important now than ever before
because you're getting these guys, they're coming into year program,
they're on a one year dude. You gotta get them
(28:57):
ready to go right now. You gotta get a macivate,
you gotta him tied in to other players. So I
think coaching, assistant coaching is probably more prevalent and more
important than it's been in the last twenty years. I
believe that, Doug, And you know what, I don't know
whether Kentucky has a great coaching staff. I don't know
whether these guys. You know, the nitty gritty of coaching
(29:20):
is saying all right, middle of the season, you got
to come in here and work with me. About fifteen
minutes and I'm all straighten something out that's not going
well in New York game, you know, And that's the nuts.
And they never had to do that though, you know,
they never had the guys. They've never had the guys
they got. Jacob Toppin's been there three years. He hasn't
improved like guys in the third year at other programs.
(29:41):
So you know, now Calipari has got a coach with
sometimes inferior talent, and they got to develop guys and
they haven't done a good enough job. It's not what
the program has been about. But it changed, just like
the Big Ten's got a change and evolved and welcome
transfers and learn how to learn how that all works
and nil works. Calipari has got to learn what it
means to develop guys. I don't that's that's back when
(30:02):
he was you know, at you Mess. You know, that's
what he had to do until your point. You're absolutely right,
and you know when you when you look across the landscape,
you know, the team that I thought was the best,
Doug was Alabama, and I think Brandon mill I know what,
he didn't score whatever. I don't even care if I'm
an NBA guy, and he checks out personality wise and
all that stuff. My god, I think he is talented,
(30:24):
but you know what, he grows up and apparently his
dad and mom everybody Alabama. People's got Alabama all over.
So there's a guy, you know, when you really think
about it, who let me ask you this, Doug In
in this year's tournament to this point, so we've had
all the teams play man, how many guys in this
tournament next year will make an impact in the NBA?
(30:48):
Won him? I agree? Yeah, I don't agree. I mean,
like the Anthony Black kids didn't didn't give me a
nice player from Arkansas to point guard. But like he
didn't make that much of an impact against Kansas. I ain't.
He's just a kid. So yeah, the likely that he
makes a huge impact in the pros, he'll be. He'll
eventually be a good player. But you know, right, i'd
(31:11):
even say this in two years, In two years, three years,
let's go three years. How many of these guys you
think I'll have a real impact, you know in the NBA.
I don't know. Three years, you know that's that's big. Yeah,
I mean Jordan, I like Jordan Hawkins. I think you
know in the right with at Yukon, I would say,
(31:31):
Anthony Black, there's no I agree, I agree, I completely agree.
All right, Danny, we Gotta, we Gotta run out Kick
is the home of the of Uh, don't at me,
that's Dan, Doc, it's the show. You're the best. I
appreciate you joining me. W D. Thanks, my friend. Be
sure to catch the live edition of The Doug Gottlieb
Show weekdays at three pm Easter noon Pacific on Fox
(31:52):
Sports Radio and the iHeart Radio app Ball. We'll pick
it up at mid court. Let it fly. It's good.
It counts to look at it, but really it doesn't matter.
It only matters baby. For some, eighty one is the final,
but not for US Gonzaga US Doug Gottlieb Show, Fox
(32:17):
Sports Radio. We got to talk about that one in
the pod. That was crazy the end of the TCU
Gonzac game. That was our progressive play the day. Progressive
making things even easier. They'll help you bundle your home
car insurance together so you can save. I'm both their
more at Progressive dot Comic call one hundred Progressive those
day Passion Franfi schel On Westwood one Gonzaga b TCU
(32:37):
eighty four eighty one. Should be pointed out that that
the line was Gonzaga minus four and a half, so
it's a six point game. Buzzer expires, TCU hits a
meaningless three. That has a lot more meaning. Let's get
to the press. The press. There was seven tenths of
(33:04):
a second Gonzaga just let TCU watch the ball roll
to a half court or just passed, and then it
was picked up and launched and TCU covered. I do
have some odds for the Sweet sixteen, and at least
looking forward East Regional tennis see the favorite to make
it to the Final four plus one twenty five, Michigan State,
(33:26):
Kansas State, and FAU. Following that order, Alabama doug the favorite,
big favorite in the South the region actually minus money
on Alabama to make it to the final four minus
one twenty five. Houston the favorite some minus money there
to make it out of the Midwest minus one ten
and in the West region. According to these bet online numbers,
(33:46):
Yukon right now has the best odds to make it
to the Final four at plus two ten, Gonzaga at
plus two twenty five, UCLA plus two thirty all very
very close, but Yukon like because of that matchup against Arkansas.
But Yukon the best odds of the West region, and
you can look great this weekend, especially in the second half.
(34:07):
Both the second half of their games, they were incredible
that regional. Remember it's in Vegas for the first time ever,
the NCA holding the sanctioned NCA terming game in Vegas.
It's far and away the best region. And they're not
playing at the Dome, They're played at T Mobile. So
it'll be Gonzaga UCLA, which we saw in the final four.
Of course, the famous out of Morrison game. That's going
(34:27):
to be a great Sweet sixteen game, great Doug. NFL
Commissioner Roger Goodell is expected to finalize a multi year
extension at next week's owners meetings. According to ESPN, I
I understand why he don't want to leave. He's getting
a crazy bout of money. I understand why they don't
want I understand why they don't want him to leave
because of how many different avenues he's found to make
(34:51):
them more money. And then there's the idea that you know,
will they expand more? What will they do? He keeps
finding more and more ways to make the owner's money.
Very interest interesting though he's there was a lot of talk.
I know there's been talk of who would be next.
Doesn't matter now because he's going to be in position. Whereas,
like Demorris Smith, he took the social media to complain
(35:13):
about Lamar Jackson not getting an offer from anybody outside
of the Ravens like Roger Adell. No matter what your
perception of him is. They didn't have Thursday Night Football
a while back. Now they have it making a crazy
amount of money. Obviously they have the Sunday windows, but
they have more international games those or more money, more windows.
They're making a Whereas Demorris Smith, he's complaining about a
(35:37):
deal that he signed, the ten year deal with a
new collective part agreement. What else the NFL should announce
that Goodell's contract is fully guaranteed whenever it's whenever it
is finalized. Remember at the combine when Dolphins head coach
Mike McDaniels said that it was in their best interest
to wait as long as they can to make the
decision on Towa's fifth year option, and that was up
(35:59):
until May first. Well, that decision was made officially today
the Dolphins did place the fifth year option on two
A tongue about las contract, I'm not sure I understand
that one. I don't understand McDaniels saying what he said
and then having the decision come down just weeks later.
This was reported even last week that they were going
(36:20):
to pick up his option, but they officially announced that
he did pick up, that they did pick up the option.
It's just as a little weird that all of this happened.
Whether I know you're saying whether they should or shouldn't,
but it's just even weird that McDaniel said what he
said and then they did it so quickly correct. The
whole thing is weird, like, oh, they loved too, but
(36:41):
why has there been reports about them reaching out about
other people? You know? And if you love too, that's great,
But you don't even know how much he'll play next year.
Why are you giving a fifth year contract extension? I
didn't make sense. He has two more years now left
on his contract. Spartaco reports that match bite your tongue.
(37:02):
Spartaco reports Magic Johnson has joined the Josh Harris bid
that could be in line to purchase the Washington Commanders
how many things can you own? Yeah, Harris owns the
Sixers and Devils well plus like Magic. Yeah, but Magic
gets it like it is he even throwing any money
(37:22):
at all? But she's just like, I'm just gonna smile
up and be happy and you're gonna give me a
percent Like wait, wait, you don't throw anybody, Like, no,
Magic Johnson, I don't throw any You give me money
and then ownership and then I'll show up like really
like yeah, okay, show up, time back, get out there
and press. That was the press. I'll love time. I
like that, all right. Check out the ind the Bonus podcast.

(00:44):
I've had a bit of this is this is my
busier time and basically my job from UH. I was
in Chicago doing all those games and then I landed
Monday night. Tuesday we did I do a TV show
from my house and I did the pod and the
radio show, and then I did the first four games,
(01:05):
and then Thursday and Friday it's just games Wald to
Wall pregame show, then games Wald to Wall. So you're
trying to get acclimated with everything else. I mean, look,
you're on social media, so had Rogers been traded, we
would have been down with it. But I was you
were waiting for anybody to like, hey, there's some there's
some interest there for so and so on Lamar Jackson.
(01:27):
But I haven't seen any of it. Here's Jeremy Fowler,
as who covers the NFL for ESPN, on the Patriots
potentially being a wildcard team. Oh that's that's what he said.
This is a weird one, right, Like, we're at a
point where my initial thought was, hey, let's not freak out.
(01:49):
Let's not freak out on Lamar Jackson and all these
teams saying they're uninterested because they're not really interested at
five years guaranteed. And then what had happened between then
and now is Lamar had that tweet midweek last week
where Adam Schefter said it was a five year, two
(02:11):
hundred million dollars deal and Lamar said it was three
for one thirty guaranteed. But I need an agent, so
I understand that there's cranked up when no one is
interested or no one is offering a contract to a
restricted free agent. At this point, in time. I think
(02:33):
it's pretty obvious what's happened. Now Now you're just trying
to wait it out what Lamar Jackson is And I
don't know, are you guys do you do the real
estate thing? You look online? What about you, Chase dude?
Do you look online like on a weekly basis, a
couple times a week? Everett at like real estate. I'm
not that guy, but I know a lot of people
(02:53):
that are that guy. Buyer. Yes, yeah, because you got
you get kid, growing family, right, and you're like, yes, okay,
so you So what happens is you know this to
be true, is you're getting like input from why it's
news which you're reading or online on what the market
(03:13):
is doing. And you have an area that you're looking at,
and you know about what things are going for, what
things are worth, and then you see something, you see
something listed on the market, You're like, okay, or do
they have do they have gold plated floors there? Right?
It's just like so crazily over And I guarantee that
(03:34):
you experienced this because we're in southern California. And if
you go back a year a year and a half ago,
like things were going for ridiculous amounts, ridiculous amounts. Now,
things have leveled off, but there are still some people
trying to capitalize on the real estate markets. Like, hey, dude,
you missed it right. It's like the guy walking into
(03:56):
Walmart on the Saturday after Black Friday. I'm like, are
all the deals? You know, they're all gone? But and
I think it's it's interesting we see this in cars
as well. You know, the car thing. They didn't have
the inventory and use cars were at ridiculously high prices,
so you'd walk into a car dealership And I did
(04:16):
this when I was looking for my daughter to get
her a car. This is like six months ago, and
I was like, well, so new cars are going above sticker.
They're like, yeah, like fifteen to twenty grand above sticker.
I was like, I'll never pay above sticker for a car.
That doesn't make any sense, Like, well, the inventory is
low and use cars are in many ways more expensive.
Like I'll just wait it out now. But so that
(04:38):
sends you. What Lamar Jackson's doing is listing his car
above asking price. You know, hey man, somebody got you
know those new Hummers that people people have been paying
like twenty five thirty grand above asking for those electric
electric hummers, and they have the crab crawl you can like,
(04:59):
I don't know when you'd ever use that, but it
is a cool feature. Turns out, though they've got all
kinds of issues with their charging network, which they don't
have the home charging station, how much they because now
the trucks are actually coming out. I've seen a couple
of them, but because the trucks are so heavy, the
batteries don't last at all. Like, yeah, it's it's a
little bit dicey. So now you can get on a
(05:20):
Ford Lightning Ford F one fifty Lightning wait list and
you're not paying like some ridiculous amount over secret. That's
Lamar Jackson. So I think these NFL teams are just
sitting there going like, look, we're gonna go through the
free agency, We're gonna go through the draft, and then
after the draft, let's see what's what. Let's see if
we can get somebody, see if we get we want.
(05:40):
We got to deal with other free agents that are
shorter term contracts. Bayer, do you think he gets offered
a five year deal? No? No, And on the heels
of what you're saying, the Morris Smith is trying to
claim that NFL owners are colluding against Lamar Jackson because
(06:01):
fully guaranteed contracts were given to Deshaun Watson and Kirk Cousins.
But it's to your point. If a house is five
hundred thousand dollars more than you know, then then what
its actual value is. No one's going to go and
see it. That's the way. No one's showing up to
the open house because it's so ridiculous. You don't have
to collude, you know, to realize that the price tag
(06:24):
is just yeah, not what the market is right now? Correct? Correct?
If you could get one sucker to do it, you know,
the Cleveland brons want to show up to that house
and buy it for that price tag. But yeah, it's
exactly the same thing. Yeah, it was of sheer what
we I guess what we consider sheer desperation, right, Yeah,
(06:46):
that's what it was out of And look a lot
of people did that with their house. And you know,
I have I live an area where there's a there's
one main street and I remember there's a house that's
sold for like a crazy amounts redone. It was incredible,
But it's on like this, I mean, it's not like
a major street. And I have a friend who's a
(07:06):
really good realtor, and he was like, you know, when
this thing dials back, you know, we're in an area
where it's pretty primarial estate. You're gonna be okay, You're
gonna protect yourself. The people that we hurt the most
are the ones like that guy who paid way over
what he should have for a house that's it's still location, location, location,
and though it's in the right town, it's you know,
it's on a major street. And like, look, you still
(07:30):
have at the end of the day, with Lamar Jackson,
you still have a guy who runs a football more
than anybody else. Doesn't want to play in Greg Roman
system anymore. By the way, like that there's a there's
a little bit. I know that's not a major part
of it, but it's at least part of it where
he didn't want to play in Greg Roman system anymore.
They got rid of Greg Roman. Like so I don't
even know what you look like in a traditional pro
(07:51):
style offense. And oh yeah, by the way, like a
am I paying you for five years guaranteed you didn't
play seven team games last two years? Will I'll run less. Well,
that takes away from who you are, but more than anything,
like it's just I don't think. I think when Burrow,
if Burrow gets his extension this offseason, if um who
(08:16):
else is eligible for an extension, Herbert, I think it
could get an extension. I don't know if they'll do
it in with the Chargers, you know, even Jail hurts
a yeah tah, like do you think too it is
gonna can I get one? I just think this is
a classic case of you go on real or dot
com or you go on Zillo whatever, and you look
at one you're like, what you're asking like five hundred
(08:39):
thousand dollars more for your house than everybody else's house.
I'll just wait, wait a couple months, and eventually it'll
start going down. It's I've heard it called missing the market, right,
missing the market and the idea of missing the market.
And I've I've bought and sold a lot of houses.
Is you want to You don't want your house to
be sold within the first like three days it's on
the market, that's when it was too low a price.
(09:01):
But you don't want to listen. You want to listen
for as much as possible. But not so much that
it turns people off. And then when what ends up
happening is you chase the market, then you start dropping
your price, dropping your price, dropping price, and you take
less than you should have, lesson you should have. Kind
of like the idea of being a realtor. I think
I'd be a really good realtor. You know. Yeah, I
(09:25):
can see you picking up your signs at the street corners.
That that's the only part that I wouldn't be right
Saturday or Sunday afternoon. Then you got to drive and
you can turn your hazard lights on, and you could
do both. Because I just saw I sent something. I
saw something yesterday where a Channel five local KTLA newscaster
here also is like a realtor, Like he doesn't does
(09:50):
you guys make real money? Right? Wow? What does it
say about television? I mean, right, you go, you're doing
realtor and you do a TV at the same time,
so you you could do it. Mam man. I'd like
to talk to you about the crash last night out
for the house. You see a thing that I didn't
see anything was at home? Have you thought about selling
your house? So you're saying, John, that's a conflict of interest.
(10:12):
I don't know if it's a conflict of interest, but
it just seems like kind of odd to be like
I'm then, you know, top seller in Realator and also
tonight act to be there at ten o'clock for the news.
So I think it's great if your boss on TV
lets you do it. It helps you from be a motion.
You see me on TV. Now, you see me, you
see me in your home. Now I'll sell your own.
It's better than the bus stop, Rember. Those are the
(10:33):
things you have your picture on the bus stops. Temperatures
upstairs will be about five percent warmer, five degrees warmer
than they are downstairs. When you open up the door
with cooling front, should move in and move through the
front of the living room. Nice. Nice to answer. You're
a meteorologist and realator. That's good. That's good. I like
(10:54):
that one. I like that. I like the reporter one though,
the reporter one where you're gonna go in door to
door and you some of those things. When was the
last time you watched a local newscast? I watched um,
I watched Fred Rogan's Goodbye recently, and I thought to myself,
just that, like I think this is the first time
I've tuned into a local newscast and at least a decade.
(11:15):
I mean during the pandemic there was I guess there
was some local you know, with the protests and whatnot,
but um, but other than that, it was like, yeah,
that nobody's watching it. I think below the age of
sixty five. That's why all the newscasters are over sixty five.
I watch. What's hard not to watch when all the
(11:36):
local channels have seventy eight hours of programming of news.
I don't know if you notice that they literally have
a news show every single hour of the day. It's
quite unbelievable. If you're looking for to get into news,
this is the time to do it. If you're in
college right now, you'll get a job right out of college,
because there's literally a job for everybody in local news
(11:56):
here in Los Angeles. To answer that, I will say
that we're out for me because I only need to
see about thirty minutes of it, and a lot of
the stories are the same and recycled. But yeah, at
six o'clock, if Peppa Pig isn't on, well, quick turn
on the local news. Sorry, It's true. I can't take Kayu.
(12:19):
Kayu is the one I can't take. I don't even
see Kayu on anymore. I think they may have took
your idea, don't you feel, Jason, don't you get I
take Jason and Doug are on the same boat, Like
I kind of like at least like to know what's
kind of happening. But it's all on my Twitter, you know. Well,
I'll give you an example. That woman from was it
(12:40):
a Channel four NBC, she she was doing the weather
and she passed out and she's okay, right, We're all okay,
good Now I can make fun of it. John, I
know Jason and Doug don't. Yes, that was hysterical, right,
I'm sorry I was she faith, she's okay, Okay, it's okay.
(13:00):
If she wasn't okay, it wouldn't be funny. She's okay,
that it's funny. It is a little scary, right, But
like they just went but she happened to faint right
when the right the moment they threw it to her news,
Like there's twenty three hours and fifty nine minutes and
fifty nine other seconds that she could have fainted and
nothing would have happened, And instead, she fainted the second
(13:23):
they threw it to her. The point is that she fainted.
I don't when did that even happen. This was Saturday morning,
I believe, or Sunday, one of the two mornings earlier.
I think Saturday, Yeah, it was. It was Saturday. I
didn't hear about it, and I didn't see it on
social media until like a day later, only proving that
nobody watches it. Does that make sense? Yeah, I would
have known about it. I think TMZ put it out
(13:44):
and that's how I just saw it on my Twitter account.
So John's point, that wasn't like the eleven o'clock news.
That was a morning newscast that has you know, various
hours covered, and I think during that point. So when
they went to her at I don't know, seven am
or whatever the case was, you're not you guys aren't
okay with me saying that was hilarious because she's okay.
I don't think it was funny. I mean, I felt bad.
(14:06):
It was scary to see the way that she dropped.
I know, but she's okay. Yeah, but it doesn't still
Thank goodness that she's okay. It's okay now that I
know she's okay. It's hilarious. Like if she would have
broken her nose in the way down, or if there
would have been some serious ailment, then you're like, well
that that was terrible. But I'm like, oh, she's okay.
Oh my god, that's funny. Can I watch him and
replay that's sorry. That's how I'm wired. I make no,
(14:30):
I make I make no pause. They're just in there,
going no, don't want to touch that one. I think
it goes into that thing that Doug always quizzes us, Hannah,
which guy are you the guy that wants to watch
the person hurt themselves or not. I'd rather not see it.
I've heard about it now, and I'd rather just not
see it. I don't you don't want to see her
pass out. I don't know. I don't know. There's a
(14:51):
little bit of suffering there, a little bit. Here's no suffering.
She just goes down. They just go like, now we'll
go to Jenny with the weather. H Jenny, okay. But
I just I just liked I's there in the pre
existing condition or something she needs to be careful of
in the future. So I don't know. I'm not as
giddy as you up too fast. I'm not sure that

I love the word dude. That's definitely always been part
(15:36):
of my vocabulary, my vernacular. I've always been on what's up, dude?
They did what I'm dude more so than man. But
in in basketball, especially college basketball, we talk about dudes
and a dude dudes not necessarily a pro, but kind
(15:56):
of feels like it feels like they're sneakers, squeak different
and we'll talk about dudes in a second. Also talking
about John Calipari, which many people think he's putting the
blame on his players, is that the right way to
approach it? Dan dockets joins us. Of course, he was
a player, a great player at Indiana, famously shutdown Michael
Jordan in the NCAA tournament. Then he was an assistant
(16:19):
coach under Bob Knight. Then he became a head coach,
notably at Bowling Green and also for like five seconds
at West Virginia, where he bailed because that place was
a mess. If I remember correctly, At one point in time,
he was the interim head coach at Indiana as well,
cleaning up the mess that was left previous to Tim.
Then he's been a college basketball alist for major networks,
(16:40):
and now he has his own show on OutKick called
Don't at Me? Did I miss anything? Danny? No? No,
I think that pretty much covers it. Here's a trivia question.
You're ready, what famous person did Roger Goodell date? Very
famous athlete from an Olympics? Mary lou Retten. I don't know.
(17:01):
It's a tough one, Katerina. Roger Goodell? And really, yeah,
how about Roger Goodell? Not bad? Right? Um? All right,
let's let's start with the weekend before we get to
some of the other some of the other stuff. Perdue loses,
Perdue loses. You're not you guy. You did a radio
show forever in Indianapolis, now you do the national show. Um,
(17:26):
why do they keep losing to inferior teams? Quite frankly, yeah,
I don't think. I think athletic ability at the guard
position shows up, Doug. I've never seen this, and you've
been around basketball as long as I've been around basketball. Um,
I've never seen this. Last five minutes of the game,
perduced guards got their shot blocked by fd US guards
(17:52):
four times. Now, I've seen big guys come over. I'm
talking about the guy guarding the man blocked the shot
four times. Now, what that means is and again you'll
understand this, But I want explain this to your listeners.
People think you can get hot in basketball and the
only thing about offense you can get hot and defensively
where I know I have you, And there is nothing
(18:13):
that says that more than I you driving me. You
make a move, you think you got me Boom, I
swat your shot out of bounds, athletic ability at the guards,
quickness at the guards. And my friend, one guy that
I really respect. In fact, whenever I'm doing something basketball
wise or I want to know something, I called he
(18:33):
was in the Purdue crowd. He said, Dan, I'm telling you,
I never see anything like it. He goes. Players from
the get go were nervous as hell though cold crowd
was and in fact, having a big crowd over here
in Columbus, which from Indie, Doug is only it's less
than three hours two and a half hours from Purdue.
It's probably three and a half hours. So the huge
crowd said, the crowd didn't help him. The crowd actually
hurt him because every shot that was missed was met
(18:55):
with the grown. You know how that is. You're at home,
big crowd and you're missing and there's a grown. I
think it's it's Saint Peter's last year. I thought it
two years ago with North Texas, and I think of
this year, lack of quickness that the guard spot killed him.
Last year they had Jay n Ivey right, There wasn't
lack of quickness there, Yeah, it was Jake Nivey had
checked out. Jay Nivey is one of the biggest what's
(19:17):
the right words here? Frauds, uh not nothing, He's not
great and all that. I mean, trivick player, but he
had checked out on Purdue last year, and everybody at
Purdue was for the last month was like, why does
he keep getting beat on these You gotta remember Purdue
and their fan base and one of the few fan
bases that argue about defense, right, toughness plays here with
(19:38):
defensive works here, and they were all like, what is
this guy doing? And I'm talking about the last no,
probably month of the Big Ten season and Big Ten
tournament then then so yeah, even though he's athletic and
talented and all that stuff, he was a fraud defensively
with with Purdue fans and how he played. So how
much of that? And obviously you can't fix you know,
(19:59):
it's hard to mixed the athleticism on the You can't
do it on the fly. You can do it in
the offseason. Some you can do it in training, but
you can also do I mean like, look, you could
also win with guys that aren't a blur athletically. You
gotta gotta change how you play a little bit. But
a lot of them just losing that game was they
were tight, man, I mean, they were just tight. How
does Matt how do you fix that as a coach?
(20:21):
I don't know, a lot of people at Purdue are
all over man. You know. Look they were twelve or
forty two from players other than Dy, and a lot
of them were great. Looks Like when you coach, you
sit there and you got a right what kind of
shots are we getting? You know? Doug? I remember being
at Bowling Green. We're up on Acorn at twenty one
points at the half of and I'm threatened, and my
assistants like, coach, we're up twenty one. I go, yeah,
(20:42):
but we had three threes at the shot clock buzzer.
We threw one in from thirty five. You know, I
thought Purdue got great shots. And to your point, they
were tight the entire game. That's my buddy, say said,
even from the tip. He said, the whole Purdue place
was just tight. How does Matt fix that? And I
don't know, but I'm tell you something to meet the
biggest disappointment was this, do you're a perdue player. There
(21:05):
are some games and you know this, they're better than me.
You there are some games. Look, fellas, we ain't losing now.
I don't give a damn who fairly Dickinson is. I
don't give a damn whether their coach said they could
beat us, didn't say they're gonna be this, but we
are perdue. We won the big ten bite and we
ain't lose. We're gonna fight. And they didn't have any
of that. They went the opposite way. They looked like
a team that was on a seven game losing streak,
(21:26):
barely got into the tournament and reeling. And what Painter
did was he tried to put in Brandon Newman, and
he did. He put him in and Newman was a
little more athletic and can shoot the basketball, so he
made that switch from Ethan Morton a better defender, but
really on the perimeter, Brandon Smith is a good, really
good cloun You can win the Big Ten with him
as point guard. They did. But I'll also say this,
(21:48):
Doug a Big ten. You know some of those guys
that you and I both knew, like Lam and those
guys at ESPN that did the studio shows, they always
told me, man, your league's a fricking thick ank league.
You got no athletes, your stiff you know what I mean.
And it kind of shows kind of shows in the turn,
well what it takes. It's like Big ten football is
(22:09):
like this for a long time, right, what it took
to win the Big Ten in football you couldn't compete with.
I think Big twelve football is like this, where you know,
in order to win the Big Twelve, you know everything's
gotta be you gotta be able to stop the spread
and you got me to score a lot of points.
But you know, the reason they can't beat the SEC
is is just it's so different up front. You know,
(22:29):
in football, the Big Ten was too thick legged, and
now Ohio State, now Michigan, to a lesser extent, they're
getting the speed to compete football wise, basco wise normally.
Penn stated the exception this year. But you gotta have
a big dude, right, and then you get to the
tournament and you don't have to have a big dude.
Matter of fact, it actually holds you back when you
have a traditional big guy. You're so right about it.
(22:51):
I talked to Urban all the time, and I'm like,
you realize you changed the whole scope of recruiting in
the in the Big Ten because now you gotta be fast,
you gotta be athletic, and you can figure it out.
You know. One of the reasons, Izzo, I've always said
this about the tournament. If you're gonna score in the
fifties and low sixties, anybody can score in the fifties
and low sixties. White Virginia struggles. Now they did get
(23:13):
sixty seven produced scored in the fifties. You're scoring the fifties.
Anybody compaching. Now you get in the eighties. See Iso
is one of the few guys. And this is why
he's so good in March. Name a way they run
after makes they run after missus. Is it a dynamic
fast break? No, but they are going to run. They
pound the backboard and they get to the file line.
And he's got some decent shooters, but they run. They're
(23:35):
not thick legged. They're not just trying to bring it
up the court every time and grind it. Now, you
give him a lead, and this is what they did
this weekend. He did the old Beeheim thing. You give
him a lead five to six minutes ago, they're gonna
use twenty eight seconds on that shot clock. But it's
no secret. Think about the big ten yesterday, whoever the
big guy was, I can't remember his name, for Miami.
(23:57):
He didn't care about Trace Jackson Davis and him being America.
He got the ball and went back and dunked at
three different times in Jackson Davis's face, and Jackson Davis
quite frankly quit. We all knew Raised Thompson wasn't a
guy for that kind of everybody you know that pays
attention in the end, though, But but Miami just had
dudes that said, the hell with you, We're going to
(24:18):
the rim on you and don't try to block our shot.
I'm not you know, some guy from Wisconsin that plays
below the rim. These are athletes that are tough dudes,
man and smart by the way they go about it. Okay,
So why why are some many the blue bloods like
UCLA and Gonzaga, UM and Michigan State, those old ones
(24:39):
still playing? But Kentucky gets beat by Kansas State and
their coach says, hey, we just got more dudes than
they have. What's what's changed in the college landscape. I
don't know. I don't know if it's n I l
And now who's older? You know, Duke's still young. Cal
wasn't that young. In fact, by Cal standards, their team
(24:59):
was pretty old. I will tell you, like you know this,
Virginia hasn't won a game, you know then forever, other
than when they went on that big role. I thought
Caliperry's team Doug was the worst team skill wise that
I've seen Cal have. Now, I'm not gonna say I studied,
you know, every team, but obviously you watched a lot
of Kentucky basketball. I think that the job that coach
(25:19):
Tang did over to Kansas State with two players coming
in when that was it when he started. But he
wasn't wrong. I've said from the getto, said Greenberg, and
not argued early in the year, and then he stopped
arguing with me. I said, if you took off and
you played shirts and skins, and you played in the
no names on the front, and you played Kentucky against look,
Kansas State, you wouldn't know which one was Kentucky. You know,
(25:41):
they'll go back and think about when Boogie Cousins and
that crew was there, John Waller, think about any of
the crews right with Terrence Jones and Anthony Davis and
all those guys, you would know who Kentucky is. Kentucky
doesn't have guys. Duke's too young in an era where
guys are fifty year seniors, sixty year seniors. I mean,
people are crying that Rick Barnes was too physical. So
(26:02):
what Rick Barnes's team got down in the mud, as
they say, and knocked around a bunch of little freshmen,
and the freshman went away. There are a lot of
people are saying, well, you know, everybody's buying players. Well maybe, yeah, maybe,
but I think the age is a big, big difference.
I don't have you know, Kansas. You don't have your coach.
You've got a couple of pros at Arkansas. You know,
(26:24):
that's a tough matchup that could go either way no
matter what. But I think those young teams you gotta
be a little bit older now, I think I think
he stick with me. I think there's it's never one thing,
it's a bunch. Well, let's start the programs that used
to get the top five, top ten high school Americans. Right.
First thing is Kentucky. They have been good last couple
of years. That that's part of it. Okay, he's had
(26:44):
massive staff and I know he's got a good class
coming in, so they haven't been particularly good. So it's
not like this a Kentucky thing where they're putting guys
at the top of the NBA Draft. But now you
take the top you know three of the top five
domestic kids and two are playing the twins are playing
for what's an overtime Elite. You got Scoot Henderson playing
(27:07):
for Ignite. So now you're fighting over the of the
top ten, you're fighting over like six or seven of
them that are going to go to college maybe and
on a given year, even of the top ten, there's
like one or two real difference makers. And now because
of nil I mean, Alabama signed was a three top
hundred kids, Arkansas six. Duke's got a bunch. They're hard
(27:30):
to get, they're hard to win with, and they're hard
to keep. And then other teams, you know, like Penn
State's got because of COVID years. You not just have
old kids because of transfers. You've got old kids that
transferred and they've played four years of college basketball and
been good, and now they get a fifth year at
(27:52):
twenty three, twenty four years old, and they're gonna kick
the hell out of your eighteen nineteen. That's exactly right
and to your point. All right, So now you got
a guy was his name Reese, My son goes Illinois
State as assistant. They lose his kid. Reason was Antonio
Reese five hundred thousand dollars in an am money. Kid
goes in Kentucky. Okay, great. Well, instead of relying on
(28:14):
a first pick in the NBA draft or a top
five pick in the NBA draft, they're relying on a
transfer from Illinois State that was so bad that the
coach got fired. Dan Mullet, I mean, think about that
for just a second, think about the difference. You know
in you know, Anthony Davis or John Wall are the
guys that they're used to playing with. Even the tea kid,
you know, guys are used to playing with. With taking
(28:36):
a transfer in his first year. Now, look, if you
get the transfer and he's a good player, to your point,
and all of a sudden he's in the program for
two or three years, Okay, he'll become that, but he's
not in his first year. And then I believe this.
I think coaching is more important now than ever before
because you're getting these guys, they're coming into year program,
they're on a one year dude. You gotta get them
(28:57):
ready to go right now. You gotta get a macivate,
you gotta him tied in to other players. So I
think coaching, assistant coaching is probably more prevalent and more
important than it's been in the last twenty years. I
believe that, Doug, And you know what, I don't know
whether Kentucky has a great coaching staff. I don't know
whether these guys. You know, the nitty gritty of coaching
(29:20):
is saying all right, middle of the season, you got
to come in here and work with me. About fifteen
minutes and I'm all straighten something out that's not going
well in New York game, you know, And that's the nuts.
And they never had to do that though, you know,
they never had the guys. They've never had the guys
they got. Jacob Toppin's been there three years. He hasn't
improved like guys in the third year at other programs.
(29:41):
So you know, now Calipari has got a coach with
sometimes inferior talent, and they got to develop guys and
they haven't done a good enough job. It's not what
the program has been about. But it changed, just like
the Big Ten's got a change and evolved and welcome
transfers and learn how to learn how that all works
and nil works. Calipari has got to learn what it
means to develop guys. I don't that's that's back when
(30:02):
he was you know, at you Mess. You know, that's
what he had to do until your point. You're absolutely right,
and you know when you when you look across the landscape,
you know, the team that I thought was the best,
Doug was Alabama, and I think Brandon mill I know what,
he didn't score whatever. I don't even care if I'm
an NBA guy, and he checks out personality wise and
all that stuff. My god, I think he is talented,
(30:24):
but you know what, he grows up and apparently his
dad and mom everybody Alabama. People's got Alabama all over.
So there's a guy, you know, when you really think
about it, who let me ask you this, Doug In
in this year's tournament to this point, so we've had
all the teams play man, how many guys in this
tournament next year will make an impact in the NBA?
(30:48):
Won him? I agree? Yeah, I don't agree. I mean,
like the Anthony Black kids didn't didn't give me a
nice player from Arkansas to point guard. But like he
didn't make that much of an impact against Kansas. I ain't.
He's just a kid. So yeah, the likely that he
makes a huge impact in the pros, he'll be. He'll
eventually be a good player. But you know, right, i'd
(31:11):
even say this in two years, In two years, three years,
let's go three years. How many of these guys you
think I'll have a real impact, you know in the NBA.
I don't know. Three years, you know that's that's big. Yeah,
I mean Jordan, I like Jordan Hawkins. I think you
know in the right with at Yukon, I would say,
(31:31):
Anthony Black, there's no I agree, I agree, I completely agree.
All right, Danny, we Gotta, we Gotta run out Kick

It only matters baby. For some, eighty one is the final,
but not for US Gonzaga US Doug Gottlieb Show, Fox
(32:17):

the pod. That was crazy the end of the TCU
Gonzac game. That was our progressive play the day. Progressive

more at Progressive dot Comic call one hundred Progressive those
day Passion Franfi schel On Westwood one Gonzaga b TCU
(32:37):
eighty four eighty one. Should be pointed out that that
the line was Gonzaga minus four and a half, so
it's a six point game. Buzzer expires, TCU hits a
meaningless three. That has a lot more meaning. Let's get
to the press. The press. There was seven tenths of
(33:04):
a second Gonzaga just let TCU watch the ball roll
to a half court or just passed, and then it
was picked up and launched and TCU covered. I do
have some odds for the Sweet sixteen, and at least
looking forward East Regional tennis see the favorite to make
it to the Final four plus one twenty five, Michigan State,
(33:26):
Kansas State, and FAU. Following that order, Alabama doug the favorite,
big favorite in the South the region actually minus money
on Alabama to make it to the final four minus
one twenty five. Houston the favorite some minus money there
to make it out of the Midwest minus one ten
and in the West region. According to these bet online numbers,
(33:46):
Yukon right now has the best odds to make it
to the Final four at plus two ten, Gonzaga at
plus two twenty five, UCLA plus two thirty all very
very close, but Yukon like because of that matchup against Arkansas.
But Yukon the best odds of the West region, and
you can look great this weekend, especially in the second half.
(34:07):
Both the second half of their games, they were incredible
that regional. Remember it's in Vegas for the first time ever,
the NCA holding the sanctioned NCA terming game in Vegas.
It's far and away the best region. And they're not
playing at the Dome, They're played at T Mobile. So
it'll be Gonzaga UCLA, which we saw in the final four.
Of course, the famous out of Morrison game. That's going
(34:27):
to be a great Sweet sixteen game, great Doug. NFL
Commissioner Roger Goodell is expected to finalize a multi year
extension at next week's owners meetings. According to ESPN, I
I understand why he don't want to leave. He's getting
a crazy bout of money. I understand why they don't
want I understand why they don't want him to leave
because of how many different avenues he's found to make
(34:51):
them more money. And then there's the idea that you know,
will they expand more? What will they do? He keeps
finding more and more ways to make the owner's money.
Very interest interesting though he's there was a lot of talk.
I know there's been talk of who would be next.
Doesn't matter now because he's going to be in position. Whereas,
like Demorris Smith, he took the social media to complain
(35:13):
about Lamar Jackson not getting an offer from anybody outside
of the Ravens like Roger Adell. No matter what your
perception of him is. They didn't have Thursday Night Football
a while back. Now they have it making a crazy
amount of money. Obviously they have the Sunday windows, but
they have more international games those or more money, more windows.
They're making a Whereas Demorris Smith, he's complaining about a
(35:37):
deal that he signed, the ten year deal with a
new collective part agreement. What else the NFL should announce
that Goodell's contract is fully guaranteed whenever it's whenever it
is finalized. Remember at the combine when Dolphins head coach
Mike McDaniels said that it was in their best interest
to wait as long as they can to make the
decision on Towa's fifth year option, and that was up
(35:59):
until May first. Well, that decision was made officially today
the Dolphins did place the fifth year option on two
A tongue about las contract, I'm not sure I understand
that one. I don't understand McDaniels saying what he said
and then having the decision come down just weeks later.
This was reported even last week that they were going
(36:20):
to pick up his option, but they officially announced that
he did pick up, that they did pick up the option.
It's just as a little weird that all of this happened.
Whether I know you're saying whether they should or shouldn't,
but it's just even weird that McDaniel said what he
said and then they did it so quickly correct. The
whole thing is weird, like, oh, they loved too, but
(36:41):
why has there been reports about them reaching out about
other people? You know? And if you love too, that's great,
But you don't even know how much he'll play next year.
Why are you giving a fifth year contract extension? I
didn't make sense. He has two more years now left
on his contract. Spartaco reports that match bite your tongue.
(37:02):
Spartaco reports Magic Johnson has joined the Josh Harris bid
that could be in line to purchase the Washington Commanders
how many things can you own? Yeah, Harris owns the
Sixers and Devils well plus like Magic. Yeah, but Magic
gets it like it is he even throwing any money
(37:22):
at all? But she's just like, I'm just gonna smile
up and be happy and you're gonna give me a
percent Like wait, wait, you don't throw anybody, Like, no,
Magic Johnson, I don't throw any You give me money
and then ownership and then I'll show up like really
like yeah, okay, show up, time back, get out there
and press. That was the press. I'll love time. I
like that, all right. Check out the ind the Bonus podcast.
